THE HOLY LAND?

Continued from AFRICA, “The Promised Land”

Sunday 16 June, 2024

THERE HAS BEEN MUCH DISCUSSION OF LATE ABOUT THE TRUE LOCATION OF “THE HOLY LAND?”

But why do we call the “Holy Land” the Holy Land? What do we mean by “Holy Land?”

ONLY ONE SCRIPTURE in the King James bible refers to “the holy land;” Zechariah 2:12, where we read:

“And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.”

In the other 17 verses where the word “holy” appears in the same verse as “land” (sometimes more than once); they do not designate a “holy land,” but more often than not refer to YAHUA and or His “holy habitation,” His “mountain,” or Jerusalem.

The eight verses where references are made in the book of Ezekiel: “holy mountain,” “holy places,” “holy name,” “holy portion of the land,” “most holy by the border of the Levites,” “firstfruits of the land…holy unto YAHUA;” make it clear that “land,” a “place,” area or location is only holy in relation to its proximity or connection to YAHUA – THE CREATOR and owner of ALL LAND!

So to speak of a “Holy Land” as if it is a distinct territory or country, is to misunderstand the biblical record; and it is yet another concept that arises from Christian “traditions.” When Yahusha walked the earth (whether it was in the Levant, in Alkebulan or elsewhere); He probably didn’t consider the land any more holy than He did the Pharisaical priesthood; but THE TEMPLE, where YAHUA had placed His Name: THAT HE TREATED AS HOLY! Even though Yahua no longer resided there; His Name sanctified His house of worship.

IT IS YAHUA WHO SANCTIFIES

So, we are used to hearing the expression “Holy Land;” and probably think we know where it is. We may even have been there. Yet in reality, The Holy Land doesn’t exist in the way we think of it. Because land is only holy when it is proximity to or designated as such by Yahua himself.This is true of any thing that He “sanctifies” or sets apart; from the vestments of the priesthood to His only begotten Son, Yahusha.

When Moshe had his first encounter with YHWH, he was told: “Do not draw near this place. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.” Exodus 3:5, KJV

What made the ground that Moshe was approaching holy, and is it still holy today? It’s proximity to the presence of the Creator of heaven and earth made the ground holy: but, as Yahua no longer resides on earth, among His chosen people; neither the land He once walked upon nor the people He once lived among is any longer holy; ACCEPT if it or they have been “set apart,” or sanctified by the Spirit of Yahua.

THE PROMISED LAND

There is scant evidence in the “canonical scriptures” that any territory or country is holy, apart from its connection to or the very presence of Yahua. Yahua placed His name upon His sanctuary; making the TEMPLE in Yerushalayim holy. But even though Yahusha walked up and down the lands inhabited by the remnant of Yahuda, Levi and Benyamin (and others who returned from Babylonian captivity with Zerubbabel) in the first century; the land, overrun by the Romans, was not holy!

By contrast, we have Yahua’s Holy days, which says are “My feasts!” They are holy because Yahua has sanctified them, forever!

Now we are used to hearing about “holy men?” And we are commanded to by Yahua to be holy, because He is holy; but no man IS holy, accept Yahusha Hamashiach: “for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of Elohim.” Even the High Priest had to make “atonement” for his sins, before performing sacrifices on behalf of the 12 tribes of Yashar’AL.

The presence of Yahusha didn’t sanctify the descendants of Yashar’AL or their land: however, Yahusha was to become the door to sanctification and everlasting salvation.

What is absolutely established in the scriptures is the existence of “the promised land!” There is 9 verses in the KJV that contain the words “the,” “promised” and “land.” Although none follows the same word order, the reference to a specific territory, region and expanse of land(s) is both concrete and undeniable; as in Deuteronomy 19:8:

“And if Yahua thy Elohim enlarge thy coast, as he hath sworn to thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give to thy fathers:”

The existence and location of the promised land is not contingent on the proximity or presence of Yahua (although He did dwell there); and has not changed over time. Furthermore, the bible and particularly the book of Jubilees (chapters 8 & 9) set out the borders of the promised lands; and lands belonging to other nations, or gentiles (non-Yashar’ALites).

WHERE IS THE PROMISED LAND?

So again, it is wrong to think of any land, country, individual or people as holy in the absence of Yahua or His spirit. Typically, what mankind has venerated as holy, Yahua describes as filthor unrighteousness:

“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.”

(Isaiah 64:6, KJV)

Indeed, the main reason that the ancient Yashar’ALites were cast out of the promised land (in successive captivities) was because they had polluted it through their abominable sins:

“Therefore I poured out My fury on them for the blood they had shed on the land, and for their idols with which they had defiled it. So I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries; I judged them according to their ways and their deeds.”

(Ezekiel 36:18 – 19, NKJV)

In the days of Yahusha, a remnant remained in the Kingdom of Yahuda. He sent His disciple to preach the gospel of the Kingdom to “the lost sheep of the House of Yashar’AL.” From this, it has been inferred that there are “ten lost tribes;” (Yahuda, Benyamin and Levi remaining). But if the tribes were lost in the physical sense; where did the 70 disciples go, and how were they to find them? (Luke 10)

It is clear that the whole house of Yashar’AL and Yahuda was lost, spiritually; and it was a message of spiritual salvation that the disciples took throughout all twelve tribes Yashar’AL who were all equally, spiritually lost! To be clear: in Yeshua’s day, none of the tribes of Yashar’AL was geographically lost; He knew where they were; and He and His disciples preached among them.

What is perhaps overlooked is that following the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans; when the last vestiges of temple worship, monarchic and priestly government over the remnant of Yashar’AL was brutally swept aside; to all intents a purposes, the whole house of Yashar’AL became “lost” as a national entity. Over the centuries that followed, their descendent become more and more scattered; and we know, eventually (for so it was prophesied), many were dispersed to the four corners of earth.

However, wherever the Yashar’ALites are; the promised land remains the promised land. And it is to that same land that they (or their descendants, if they ever left) will be returned!

The forged histories, skewed “scholarship,” faked archaeologies and transplanted ruins, would have us believe that the land promised to Abram, Yitsack and Y’akobi (Jacob)is the thin, desert strip on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, in the Levant (where a fake nation is now busily letting the blood of its rightful and ancient, Arabian inhabitants). But over the past several decades, more and more biblical scholars of African descent are challenging the conventional view put forward by white, western colonial academics.

Having studied Biblical Theology for my second degree from 1980-83, at Ambassador College, Pasadena CA; I am well acquainted with both *Jewish and Christian traditional perspectives on the scriptures. However, it should be said; in the last seven years, I have had to unlearn a lot of what 40 years ago I accepted as “the gospel truth;” to arrive at a more holistic view of biblical history and theology. My understanding is helped, because books once deemed by protestants and other conservatives as anathema; such as 1 Enoch and Jubilees, have been restored to their rightful position in the “biblical canon.”

THE PROMISED LAND – SEVEN PERTINENT QUESTIONS

1) WHAT was promised (Genesis 12:1 – 3, KJV)

Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

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 him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Abram is promised: land, national greatness, blessings, “fame,” to be a source of blessings and pre-eminence among the families on earth; on condition that he leave his father’s house, land and country.

2) WHERE was it promised? (Genesis 11:31 – 32, KJV)

And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram’s wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there. And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.

According to the received wisdom; Terah (Abram’s father) left Ur in Chaldeaheading toward the land of Canaan, but settled in Haran in the region of ancient Mesopotamia; sites that have long been identified in modern day Iraq and Northern Syria.But black scholars, pawing over ancient maps, in some cases dating back almost 600 years; and who have studied the book of Jubilees; have found evidence of these key biblical locations on the African continent– Alkebulan!

The promise was first made to Abram when he was living with his father in Haran; with some scholars believing that the biblical narrative took place entirely on the African continent. Haran has been located in the region of the Sahara (a name derived from the conjunction of Sarah and Haran – as in Saharan Desert).

AFRICAN HISTORY IN BIBLE TIMES

(A typical example of the African Yashar’ALite thesis)

AFRIKAN EXODUS – The Real “Holy Land” According to the Book of Jubilees

A variety of presenters, using the same sources (notably the book of Jubilees), come to different conclusions about the “true locations” of the biblical sites on the continent of Africa. I take the view that; despite the certainty which some attach to their proofs; the actual sites will likely be found across the entire continent. Because of the monumental effort put into destroying these sites and evidence of them by European (Edomite) invaders; finding and proving without doubt the actual locations of biblical towns, cities, rivers and mountains will require careful and prolonged investigation; not to mention some “revelations.” However, there is I believe, a growing weight of evidence in its support; to my mind, the so-called African continent – ALKEBULAN, IS THE PROMISED LAND!

3) WHEN was it promised

Of course, the promise was made to Abram in Genesis 12:1…while he and his father’s family were living in Haran. But to understand the full, spiritual significance of the promises; we need to see it in its full historical context. And Jubilees provides the extra information that helps us to understand who Abram was, and why he was chosen.

Biblical scholars, like Henry Halley, date Abram’s period circa 2000 BC, following the flood circa 2400 BC (about 1600 years after creation). The flood destroyed all life on the surface of the earth, with the exception of Noah, his 3 sons and their 4 wives, 8 souls. They were charged with repopulating the earth; and it was in their day that the whole earth was divided among Noah’s sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth, and their sons listed in Genesis 10, the so called “table of nations,” about 70 in all.

The book of jubilees explains that under the supervision of angels; Noah’s sons drew lots to decide which portions of the earth each would inherit (Jubilees 8:10…). Noah rejoiced when the choicest land, containing 3 holy sites, Sinai, Mount Zion and the Garden of Eden “…came forth for by lot for Shem and his sons, that they should possess it unto his generations for evermore.” (vs 18) Ham’s land was to the right of the Garden of Eden and south towards “…all the mountains of fire (volcanos?). Japheth’s land is north of Shem’s, and extends north easterly to the whole region of Gog and to all the country east thereof.” (vss. 22-25)

Scholars draw different conclusions as to what portions of our modern map fell to whom (as some names and language in Jubilees is sometimes archaic or obscure); but to my mind, references to

“bosom of the tongue which looketh towards the south;” with rivers emptying into “great sea(s)”is a description of the whole African continent surrounded by the two great oceans and other seas.

Another important takeaway from Jubilees is found at the end of chapter 9; after Shem, Ham and Japheth divided their three territories among their own sons:

“And thus the sons of Noah divided unto their sons in the presence of Noah their father, and he bound them all by an oath, imprecating a curse on every one that sought to seize the portion which had not fallen (to him) by his lot.

15. And they all said, “So be it; so be it,” for themselves and their sons for ever throughout their generations till the day of judgment, on which the Lord God shall judge them with a sword and with fire, for all the unclean wickedness of their errors, wherewith they have filled the earth with transgression and uncleanness and fornication and sin.”

(Jubilees IX, vs 14&15)

The sons and grandsons of Noah all took an oath: an oath with very serious and everlasting implications.

Now what Happens?

“And Ham and his sons went into the land which he was to occupy, which he acquired as his portion in the land of the south.

29. And Canaan saw the land of Lebanon to the river of Egypt that it was very good, and he went not into the land of his inheritance to the west (that is to) the sea, and he dwelt in the land of Lebanon, eastward and westward from the border of Jordan and from the border of the sea.

30. And Ham, his father, and Cush and Mizraim, his brothers, said unto him: “Thou hast settled in a land which. is not thine, and which did not fall to us by lot: do not do so; for if thou dost do so, thou and thy sons will fall in the land and (be) accursed through sedition; for by sedition ye have settled, and by sedition will thy children fall, and thou shalt be rooted out for ever.

31. Dwell not in the dwelling of Shem; for to Shem and to his sons did it come by their lot.

32. Cursed art thou, and cursed shalt thou be beyond all the sons of Noah, by the curse by which we bound ourselves by an oath in the presence of the holy judge, and in the presence of Noah our father.” “

(Jubilees X, vs 28 – 32)

Wherever we believe the inheritance of Shem to be; whether in Alkebulan, the Philippinesor in the Levant (where most, including R H Charles, the renowned translator of Jubilees from the Ethiopian, Ge’ez text, believed it to be); the original occupants, the Canaanites, from whom it took its name, SHOULD NEVER HAVE SETTLED THERE!

This knowledge explains a lot. Canaan and his descendents, who eventually interbred with Nephilim (sons of the watchers who survived the flood*), had occupied the land that fell by lot to Shem in the presence of the “holy judge.” He, through this action alone; against the protestation of his father, Ham, and his own brothers; and through the subsequent sins his family went on to commit which defiled “the promised land,” SEALED THEIR FATE.

In this context (scarcely covered by the received bible): the brutal and bloody conquest by the Children of Yashar’AL, led by Moshe and Yahusha (Joshua) now make sense! There is evidence in Jubilees, the bible and hidden historical records that point to Alkebulan being the promised land; not the Levant as R H Charles infers in his translation.

4) To WHOM is the promise

In the bible, the promise was first given to Abram (Genesis 12:1); then repeated to his son, Yitsack(Isaac); and again to Y’acobi (Jacob):

“And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.

“And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:

Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;

And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:”

(Genesis 26:1 – 6, KJV)

“And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.

And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.

And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.

And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;

And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt 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.

And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.”

(Genesis 28:10 – 15, KJV)

So the promises were repeated, often more than once, to Abram, Yitsack and Y’acobi “and to (their) seed;”while they were in the promised land as strangers and pilgrims!

After the death of the patriarchs, and the 12 (Patriarch) son so Y’acobi; and centuries (some believe two, others four) of slavery in Egypt; the promises were reiterated to “the seed,” descendants of Abram, Yitsack and Y’acobi, through Moshe repeatedly; from the establishment of the covenant at mount Sinai, to the final instructions through Moshe, 40 years later, before Yashar’AL entered the promised land:

“For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.

“The LORD did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples;

“but because the LORD loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

“Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;

“and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack with him who hates Him; He will repay him to his face

“Therefore you shall keep the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments which I command you today, to observe them.”

(Deuteronomy 7:6 – 11, KJV)

Promises BEFORE Abram

When we take into the account the “revelations” in the books of Jubilees and 1 Enoch; we will understand that “the promises” go back at least as far as Noah; and in fact back to Adam and Eve, the first parents. The Creator has determined to fulfill His purpose and promises, through a “chosen line!”

“Then said the Most High, the Holy and Great One spake, and sent Uriel to the son of Lamech, and said to him: 2. ‘〈Go to Noah〉and tell him in my name “Hide thyself!” and reveal to him the end that is approaching: that the whole earth will be destroyed, and a deluge is about to come upon the whole earth, and will destroy all that is on it. 3. And now instruct him that he may escape and his seed may be preserved for all the generations of the world.’”

(1 Enoch 10:1 – 3)

Enoch identifies himself as the son of Lamech, as the seventh from Adam; and says that his message (which is privileged information from the “heavenly tablets”) is a much for his forebears as it is for future generations. So “the promises” are in fact a reaffirmation of the promise given to Adam and Eve of Eternal Life and dominion over all creatures (including the serpent, Satan) in presence of The Creator in His kingdom to come; which He Himself will fulfill through a specific line of inheritance.

Canaan (Yahua determined) was not of that line; just as Esau and Ishmael, though descendants of Abram, Shem and Noah, are not the line of inheritance chosen by The Creator. Neither the promise nor the land was meant for them!

“I have loved you,” says the LORD.
“Yet you say, ‘In what way have You loved us?’
Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?”
Says the LORD.
“Yet Jacob I have loved;

But Esau I have hated,
And laid waste his mountains and his heritage
For the jackals of the wilderness.”

(Malachi 1:1 – 3, KJV)

TRUE LOCATION OF THE SCRIPTURAL DAMASCUS

5) WHY was it promised

Jubilees and the book of 1 Enoch have one thing in common: their opening chapters pretty much encapsulate the core message of their books as a whole; omitting most of the details, of course. It is 1 Enoch, chapter one that makes it evident WHY the promises that included not only land but national greatness and very many other blessings; blessing not only in this life, but in the life to come were given:

“The words of the blessing of Enoch, wherewith he blessed the elect ⌈⌈and⌉⌉ righteous, who will be living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked ⌈⌈and godless⌉⌉ are to be removed.

2. And he took up his parable and said–Enoch a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by God, saw the vision of the Holy One in the heavens, ⌈which⌉ the angels showed me, and from them I heard everything, and from them I understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a remote one which is for to come.

3. Concerning the elect I said, and took up my parable concerning them: The Holy Great One will come forth from His dwelling,

4. And the eternal God will tread upon the earth, (even) on Mount Sinai,
⌈And appear from His camp⌉
And appear in the strength of His might from the heaven of heavens.

5. And all shall be smitten with fear
And the Watchers shall quake,
And great fear and trembling shall seize them unto the ends of the earth.

6. And the high mountains shall be shaken,
And the high hills shall be made low,
And shall melt like wax before the flame

7. And the earth shall be ⌈wholly⌉ rent in sunder,
And all that is upon the earth shall perish,
And there shall be a judgement upon all (men).

8. But with the righteous He will make peace. And will protect the elect, And mercy shall be upon them. And they shall all belong to God, And they shall be prospered, And they shall ⌈all⌉ be blessed. ⌈And He will help them all⌉, And light shall appear unto them, ⌈And He will make peace with them⌉.

9. And behold! He cometh with ten thousands of ⌈His⌉ holy ones To execute judgement upon all, And to destroy ⌈all⌉ the ungodly: And to convict all flesh Of all the works ⌈of their ungodliness⌉ which they have ungodly committed, And of all the hard things which ungodly sinners ⌈have spoken⌉ against Him.”

(1 Enoch, chapter one)

SO YAHUA, who declares the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10); publishes through Enoch, reputedly, the first man to write anything down; what the ultimate conclusion of His plans will lead to in the “remote (generation)… to come;” the reward for the righteous and punishment for the wicked. It is the “Endgame,” the final judgment of all who have lived that is being summarised here.

In this first chapter, we see several references to “the elect,” being protected, offered peace and blessed. This elect is Yahua’s “chosen;” and the chosen (we know)are from a long line beginning with Adam through Seth and Enoch, Noah, Shem, Abram, Yitsack, Y’akobi, the 12 tribes of Yashar’AL (and of course all those in between), and through Yahuda (Judah); to and through Yahusha Hamashiach.

This is YAHUA’S CHOSEN LINE – the elect.And, like the Father and “husbandman” He is; He plays an active role in directing His plans and purposes; through His messengers (angels), and even appearing or speaking directly to the patriarchs to direct them in the way that they should go!

THE PROMISES were given as incentives to His chosen; in the same way that a student or disciple is incentivised by the “promise” of a certificate or qualification at the conclusion of his studies. Even though we are always free to make our own choices; we have not been left to our own devices. Yahua’s interventions in the lives of His elect, chosen ones is critical to their (our) success; to achieve His ambitions for us and the whole of His creation!

6) Does “ISRAEL” Fit the Scriptures?

The majority of Bibles which I own (and I have a few), or have come across in reference libraries, have maps; usually at the back but sometimes interspersed between the books of the Bible; all invariably depicting modern ISRAEL/PALESTINE as the land of Canaan – The Promised, or “Holy Land.” And of course, there are countless numbers of Bible atlases, commentaries and dictionaries; all of which REINFORCE the belief promulgated by biblical scholars and mapmakers, that the land of the Bible is in the Levant.

Let’s leave aside for one moment, the mountain of biblical analysis, criticism and commentary advanced by Western scholars with a Eurocentric axe to grind; forget the maps, the “his-stories” and the movies that have shaped our view of the bible narratives over the past two centuries; and lets examine the scriptures alone against the physical geography of Mesopotamia and the Levant.

WITHOUT THE PRECONCEPTIONS imprinted in our minds by those who set themselves up as the authorities; WHAT DO THE SCRIPTURES ACTUALLY DESCRIBE?

We’ve already examined the testimony of Jubilees that describes in detail the distribution of all the land on earth, every continent; between the sons and grandsons of NOAH. It is the land allotted to SHEM that contains three (of the four) sacred sites to YAHUA, Mount Sinai, Zion and the Garden of Eden.

“And he called his sons, and they drew nigh to him, they and their children, and he divided the earth into the lots, which his three sons were to take in possession, and they reached forth their hands, and took the writing out of the bosom of Noah, their father.

12. And there came forth on the writing as Shem’s lot the middle of the earth which he should take as an inheritance for himself and for his sons for the generations of eternity, from the middle of the mountain range of Râfâ, from the mouth of the water from the river Tînâ. and his portion goeth towards the west through the midst of this river, and it extendeth till it reacheth the water of the abysses, out of which this river goeth forth and poureth its waters into the sea Mê’at, and this river floweth into the great sea. And all that is towards the north is Japheth’s, and all that is towards the south belongeth to Shem.

13. And it extendeth till it reacheth Kârâsô: this is in the bosom of the tongue which looketh towards the south.

14. And his portion extendeth along the great sea, and it extendeth in a straight line till it reacheth the west of the tongue which looketh towards the south; for this sea is named the tongue of the Egyptian Sea.

15. And it turneth from here towards the south towards the mouth of the great sea on the shore of (its) waters, and it extendeth to the west to ‘Afrâ and it extendeth till it reacheth the waters of the river Gihon, and to the south of the waters of Gihon, to the banks of this river.

16. And it extendeth towards the east, till it reacheth the Garden of Eden, to the south thereof, [to the south] and from the east of the whole land of Eden and of the whole cast, it turneth to the east, and proceedeth till it reacheth the east of the mountain named Râfâ, and it descendeth to the bank of the mouth of the river Tînâ.

17. This portion came forth by lot for Shem and his sons, that they should possess it for ever unto his generations for evermore.

18. And Noah rejoiced that this portion came forth for Shem and for his sons, and he remembered all that he had spoken with his mouth in prophecy; for he had said:

Blessed be the Lord God of Shem,
And may the Lord dwell in the dwelling of Shem.”

19. And he knew that the Garden of Eden is the holy of holies, and the dwelling of the Lord, and Mount Sinai the centre of the desert, and Mount Zion–the centre of the navel of the earth: these threewere created as holy places facing each other.

20. And he blessed the God of gods, who had put the word of the Lord into his mouth, and the Lord for evermore.

21. And he knew that a blessed portion and a blessing had come to Shem and his sons unto the generations for ever–the whole land of Eden and the whole land of the Red Sea, and the whole land of the east, and India, and on the Red Sea and the mountains thereof, and all the land of Bashan, and all the land of Lebanon and the islands of Kaftûr, and all the mountains of Sanîr and ’Amânâ, and the mountains of Asshur in the north, and all the land of Elam, Asshur, and Bâbêl, and Sûsân and Mâ‘ĕdâi and all the mountains of Ararat, and all the region beyond the sea, which is beyond the mountains of Asshur towards the north, a blessed and spacious land, and all that is in it is very good.”

(1 Enoch, 8:11-21)

It is also a mountainous land:

“And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.”

(Josh. 11:21, KJV);

and well watered:

“And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.”

(Gen. 13:10);

“flowing with milk and honey.”

“For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.”

(Deut. 31:20)

THE CASE FOR ISRAEL/PALESTINE?

SO, THE PROMISED LAND IS: “mountainous,” “a spacious land,” “was well watered everywhere,” and “flowing with milk and honey.” NOW LET’S LOOK AT THE LEVANT!

It might be argued by some, that in the past, The Levant, the region of modern Israel today, was a part of the “fertile crescent,” and close to the old silk and spice trade routes. But there is little we see in the past several centuries to indicate this; with much of Mesopotamia (modern Iran and Iraq) fighting back deserts and even the mighty River Euphrates drying up to reveal early buildings and small settlements that the course of the river has changed or been diverted?

Home to the Dead Sea (the lowest sea level on earth); modern Israelis have managed to bring significant areas of baron, infertile land into production; with ingenious desalination and irrigation technologies; but still, 50% of Israel’s territory is classified as desert today. Hardly reminiscent of a “well-watered” land “flowing with milk and honey.”

ISRAEL A MOUNTAINOUS LAND?

“At that time Joshua went and destroyed the Anakites from the hill country: from Hebron, Debir and Anab, from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua totally destroyed them and their towns.”

(Josh. 11:21, NIV)

The New International Version (or, Nearly Inspired Version, as some call it) of the Bible was was first published in 1978. In the quote from Joshua, chapter 11, above; reference is made to the “hill country” twice; and looking at the map of ISRAEL (above), it is certainly a more fitting description of the land in that region, as I have seen for myself.

But reading from the the King James Version of the Bible, translated in 1611; largely from the Greek, Septuagint (the earliest surviving copies of the original texts); we find Yeshua’s conquest of the land to be possessed by Yahuda described thus:

“And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.”

(Joshua 11:21, KJV)

The king James Bible, published over 360 earlier than the NIV, describes a land covered in mountains, not hills!

The Douay Rheims Version, published in France in 1609, also makes clear that the land that the Yashar’ALites were taking possession off was not hilly, but mountainous:

“At that time Josue came and cut off the Enacims from the mountains, from Hebron, and Dabir, and Anab, and from all the mountain of Juda and Israel, and destroyed their cities”

(Joshua 11:21, DRV)

Yet, time after time, in modern, 20^th century and more recent “translations;” (New Living Translation, Berean Study Bible, American & English Standard Bibles and the Amplified Bible; to name just a few) we see this verse describing the land as “hill country.”

It’s as if, post 1884 and the Berlin (Congo) Conference; following the “Scramble for Africa;” European powers who divided the “promised land” among themselves, did everything they could to cover their tracks; including re-writing the scriptures, re-drawing (or destroying) maps, and forging history!

The earliest translation of Yeshua 11:21-22, THE SYRIAC VERSION (published in the 2^nd century, translated in Plain Text in 2018) makes it abundantly clear; the land that Yahua’s chosen people were inheriting was not just flowing with milk and honey, well watered and a spacious land; it was a mountainous land inhabited by GIANTS:

“And Yeshua came at that time and he destroyed the giants that were in the Mountain of Hermon and of Dabir and of Gebel and of every mountain of Yehuda, and Yeshua destroyed them out of every mountain of Israel with their cities. And no giant was left in the land of the children of Israel, except only in Aza, and in Geth and in Ashduud which were left”

(Joshua 11:21-22, Arabic Plain Text)

(Some may recall that it was on Mount Hermon that the “angles that sinned,” The Watchers, descended; with the aim of mating with “the daughters of men, from whom the giants would be born:

‘Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men and beget us children.’ 3. And Semjâzâ, who was their leader, said unto them: ‘I fear ye will not indeed agree to do this deed, and I alone shall have to pay the penalty of a great sin.’ 4. And they all answered him and said: ‘Let us all swear an oath, and all bind ourselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon this plan but to do this thing.’ 5. Then sware they all together and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it. 6. And they were in all two hundred; who descended ⌈in the days⌉ of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it. (1 Enoch VI: 1-6)

After the flood, some of the offspring of the Nephilim [sons of giants] had established themselves among the Canaanites. Yahua had long predetermined that their fate was to be utterly destroyed from the earth. The Anakims, living in the mountains in the land of Canaan, were descended from fallen angels!)

As for the Levant (modern Israel) being a spacious land: The total area of the State of Israel is 22,145 sq.km (8,630 sq. miles), of which 21,671 sq. km is land area. Israel is some 420 km in length and about 115 km across at the widest point; it is only a little larger than Wales (8,024 sq. miles).

By contrast: Africa’s total land area is approximately 11,724,000 square miles (30,365,000 square km), and the continent measures about 5,000 miles (8,000 km) from north to south and about 4,600 miles (7,400 km) from east to west. A land mass over 1,350 times greater than the Levant!

(Egypt has an area of 1,002,450 km²(387,050 sq mi). The longest straight-line distance in Egypt from north to south is 1,420 km (880 mi), while that from east to west measures 1,275 km (792 mi). So modern Egypt alone, Israel’s nearest neighbour on the African continent, has 45 times the land area of Israel today.

Of course, we don’t know what proportion of the continent was covered by ancient Egypt; but remember Pharaoh forced the Yashar’ALites into slavery, because he feared they would take over the country – how quickly then would they have filled the land available in the Levant? Remember, the descendants of Abram, Yitsack and Y’akobi were to become like the sand of the sea and the stars in the heavens! To thwart Yahua’s plans, the Europeans have employed the same, ruthless tactics as Egypt – killing millions of African children annually, one way or another!)

Of course, most African scholars advancing the idea of Alkebulan (Africa) being the promised land (or “holy land”); are not suggesting that the ancient “Hebrews” (Shemites, descended through Eber)or Yashar’ALites occupied the entire continent; they usually point to sub-Saharan, East, Central and/or Southern Africa.

Today there is a great deal of debate about where in Alkebulan (Africa) the kingdoms of Yashar’AL and Yahuda were/are.Some say in Sudan, Ethiopia and Kenya, while others are certain they are in Southern Africa.

I have to say at this point in time, I’m not at all sure. I’m still researching, looking at the evidence and visiting locations. But, what I am fairly confident about is (despite all the historical, scholarly and archaeological evidence allegedly supporting it) that the “promised land” was not and is not in the Levant or modern day Israel.

7) How will the promises be fulfilled?

The VOICE of Prophecy, Final Warning, Jubilee Edition: 20/22

They are not just trying:

THEY ARE KILLING US!

Feast of Unleavened Bread, April 2023

Who are THEY?

Could they be the Devil in human form? Has Lucifer divided himself and become incarnate in a global elite?

In a way, yes!

The fallen one is the complete antithesis of God’s anointed: Jesus Christ – ישוע. המשיח. Jesus (Yeshua) spoke of the ruling elites of His day in this way:

“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.”  (John 8:44, NKJV)

The priests and rulers among the Jews in Jesus’ day claimed to be the descendants of Abraham; and physically (genealogically) many were. But the Son of the God, the promised “seed of Abraham,” revealed them to be the children of the devil!  It was Satan who ruled their hearts and minds – THEY were descendants of a long line of rebellious generations misled by Satan into serving and worshiping him!

Instead of God’s spirit; it is the spirit of Satan that lives in and directs them!

The apostle Paul explains the true seat and source of powers now ruling on earth:

“Put on the full armour of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”  (Ephesians 6:11-12, BSB)

So THEY: rulers, authorities, and powers in this world of darkness; are agents of the spiritual influence exercised on earth by fallen angels, whether they know it or not! It is Lucifer (the Devil; the adversary of God and all of humanity) who wants us dead! And it is his will that is being carried out on Earth by his minions.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME

The HISTORY of TIME begins, not in Genesis – בראשית, or the Garden of Eden; but before the creation of mankind. It is described in a variety of biblical passages; in a number of books, including Psalms, Job, Ezekiel, Isaiah, the gospel of John and the book of Revelation. Additional narratives can be found in apocryphal (ex-canonical) ancient texts; like 1 Enoch for example.

Most people living in this modern age believe what they have been taught in schools and universities. They have learned and accepted a false narrative promulgated by religious, scientific, technological, mass media, educational, cultural and commercial organisations. THEY BELIEVE what they have been told – But most of the information in books about life on earth and human history are carefully constructed LIES!  Satan has seen to that.

Histories going back hundreds and thousands of years have been twisted by the evil elites (under Satan who controls the kingdoms on earth); to keep the masses living largely in ignorance and easier to CONTROL. Even in this age of the internet where, as prophesied by Daniel about 6^th Century BC: “many go to and fro and knowledge shall increase” (Daniel 12:4), the majority is grossly ignorant of the truth!

Although God has made THE TRUTH – HIS WORD available to those who seek it in almost every conceivable language all over the world; the Devil, Satan has masterfully “hidden in plain sight”what everyone needs to know in order to obtain GOD’S GIFT of eternal life.

WHY? Because SATAN (the Adversary) is diametrically opposed to GOD’S PLAN of SALVATION – He does not want any human being to obtain forgiveness and live forever as a son of GOD.

This is why the Devil attempted to kill Jesus at birth: to destroy Him before, during and at the close of His three and a half year ministry! Jesus Christ – ישוע המשיח is the gateway into the Kingdom of God for all of humanity!

(Many today believe the myths of modern science and reject GOD’S TRUTH. Even though many bible translations have been adulterated in part; the CORE of God’s message remains intact)

SATAN RESTRAINED

IF GOD’S PLAN is the salvation of humankind; to “[bring] many sons to glory;” (Heb 2:10)  and SATAN’S PLAN is to destroy humanity and prevent anyone becoming a son of God; why doesn’t the devil just annihilate all life on earth in the oft mooted nuclear holocaust, and have done with it? After all, he is “the god of this age.”  (1 Corinthians 4:4)

I’m not sure that Lucifer can just wipe everyone out; and furthermore, I don’t believe he would even if he could. Satan’s plan is far more subtle than just raining physical death on humanity. It is not enough to destroy our bodies – SATAN WANTS OUR SOULS!

Satan is “the god of this world,” (I Cor. 4:4, KJV); but there is ample evidence in the scriptures to show that he doesn’t have ‘carte blanche.’  Satan rules on earth: but God is ruler of the universe. The devil can still only do on earth what God allows. So, Satan is being restrained; and eventually, after he has served God’s purpose – he will be CHAINED!  However, in the meantime, the devil is free to wreak havoc on earth, and cause untold misery.

WHY GOD ALLOWS SUFFERING

If you’re one of those “happy, clappy Christians” who understand that salvation is through faith and not by works (lest anyone should glory); then you may not have read Torah – תורה, containing God’s original covenant; let alone the Tanakh (the Old Testament – the Law, the Prophets and the Writings).

While none of the scriptures may be necessary for salvation (it’s what’s written in our heart and mind by God’s spirit that counts), it is “profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness.” (2 Timothy 2:16); and the apostle Paul was referring mainly to the Tanakh.

One ‘old chestnut’ often raised by atheists and other non-believers is: “If there IS a loving god; how could he allow so much suffering on earth?” While the answer to this question can easily be found in the בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה –The New (covenant) Testament; not least in the examples of Christ, the apostles and early followers of Jesus; in the manner of their lives and deaths: to my mind, the clearest and fullest answer to this question is to be found in the book of Job, in the Writings – כתבים (Ketuvim).

I have heard someone say: “The book of Job never answers Job’s question;” which is “Why do the righteous suffer?”  

Job is a long book: 42 chapters, two more than Exodus, which it could be argued is a far more important book. It may be true that our Creator never says directly to Job: “This is why you’re suffering;.” However, to the reader, at the end of all the arguments and expositions between Job, his three friends, Elihu (a younger man who shows up later), and then God’s response to their debating; the answer should become clear to most given a little thought.

This book, said to have been written between the 7^th and 4^th centuries BC, does not really give us much information about the historical period, location or time when these events took place. Some say that this is deliberate; because the burning question is: WHY DOES GOD ALLOW GOOD PEOPLE TO SUFFER? (Most of us have no problem “bad” people suffering; they have it coming to them. In fact, we can be bitterly disappointed when we see bad people prospering!)

If I was to be glib, I would say: GOD CANNOT BE WRONG – man cannot be RIGHT! This is borne out by many scriptures in the old and new testaments.

Isaiah says: “…all our righteousness is like filthy rags;” Paul writes: “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God:” (Romans 3:23); and “…just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:” (Romans 4:6)

To my mind, the answer to the question of why “apparently” good people suffer is in Job 1:6-12. It is the most important element in the story. (Remember:  “…we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12):

“Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. The LORD said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.”  And the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?” Then Satan answered the LORD and said, “Does Job fear God for no reason? Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.  But stretch out your hand and touch all that he has, and he will curse you to your face.” And the LORD said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand.” So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.”  

(Job 1:6-12)

Many Scriptures in the Bible affirm God’s promise to protect, guide and bless us if we obey Him. And equally, we can read plenty of examples where God promises to curse us for disobedience. THE QUESTION IS: why do we still suffer WHEN WE OBEY HIM (or at least try to)?

The verses above may make God appear to be capricious and inconsistent; but viewed with the perspective of God’s ultimate PURPOSE (which the rest of the book of Job and the bible give us) we should understand as the apostles came to: “We must through many tribulations enter the Kingdom of God.” (Acts 14:22). And, speaking of Jesus Paul writes: “…though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.” (Hebrews 5:8)

God does not tempt us; that is Satan’s role, which he is well fitted for. He is the “accuser of [the] brethren,”* as illustrated in Job’s story; but God uses the evil that the devil brings about in our individual experiences to develop in us His Holy, Righteous character. This is why the story of Job concludes as it does – with Job recognising he is no match for God; repenting and receiving God’s forgiveness; then being blessed above and beyond his previous status!

This is a clear picture of the SALVATION PLAN that God offers to every human being: if we recognise our sins and repent – WE ARE SAVED BY GOD’S GRACE; through the blood sacrifice of ישוע המשיח!

*(Revelation 12:10)

SAVED BY HIS BLOOD

IT IS SATAN WHO is not just trying, but IS ACTUALLY KILLING US; and has been doing so all these many years! DEATH entered the human life-cycle when the devil (in the form of a snake) persuaded Eve and Adam to disobey God!

One doesn’t have to read very far into the story of to humanity to find Cain, stirred by satanic pride and jealousy, plotting and KILLING HIS BROTHER. As far as we know, these were the third and fourth humans ever to have lived; and the first to be BORN! Even after being warned by god, Cain murdered righteous Able!

THERE IT IS! Why do the righteous suffer? Because Satan cannot stand them!

Things could only have got off to a worse start if Adam had turned around and killed Eve; or visa versa (too awful to contemplate – God would not let that happen)! But things did get worse; and within 10 generations; under the influence of Satan and fallen angels; life on earth became so polluted and vile that God felt it necessary to DESTROY ALL LIFE ON EARTH; with the exception of the family of Noah. WOW!

SO FAR, SO BAD! Then what happened?

Within three generations of the flood, mankind was again in almost TOTAL REBELLION AGAINST GOD! Warlords like Nimrod “united” the peoples in demon worship and the construction of a “civilisation” quite different from the one God had intended to develop under Adams stewardship – but that ship had sailed!

God knew that a united humanity, egged on by Satan and his demons, would be difficult to restrain: so in addition to drastically shortening human life spans, He “confounded their language:” in other words, gave different languages to different family groupings or tribes (listed in Genesis 10 – the table of nations). God also scattered the peoples into different regions of the earth.

EVER SINCE NIMROD and the tower of BABLE, Satan has continued to inspire men (it is mostly men) to create ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. Call it an Empire, Caliphate, Reich or the United Nations; the goal is the same – HUMANITY UNITED AGAINST GOD! In one way or another, Satan has used these human systems of government to kill and destroy many, many people – and keep them separated from God through IDOL WORSHIP.

The Creator God foresaw ALL THIS; even predicting empires, individuals and events centuries before they happened. From the very beginning, He provided a way to bring humanity – led astray by Satan – BACK TO HIMSELF: something the devil is violently opposed to!

After Adam and Eve sinned by taking the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil; God put them out of the garden and cursed the ground for Adam’s sake. He also cursed the Satan who had assumed the form of a serpent; promising that from the seed of Adam one would come who would be victorious over him. He would become the door into God’s Kingdom; where it is God Who rules, not Satan or misguided human beings.

As we know; Jesus Christ – ישוע המשיח is that promised “seed;” the “Son of Man,” and “Lamb of God; who takes away the sin of the world.” It was God’s willingness to sacrifice the life of His only begotten Son to ATONE for our SINS that made it possible for each of us to gain victory over Satan, through Jesus Christ!

THE END GAME!

Although it is the most important topic; SPIRITUAL SALVATION is not what this article is chiefly about. It is to alert the reader to the many “schemes” Satan has set up through his minions to deceive, enslave, exploit, manipulate and poison; if not just KILL YOU OUTRIGHT! 

In this final, The VOICE of Prophecy, Final Warning, Jubilee Edition: 20/22; several articles highlight the efforts of the evil elite to drastically reduce the earth’s human population, in the process inflicting gross and unnecessary suffering on the masses. Indeed, this secretive, parasitic cabal who control politics, banking, industry, commerce and culture, seem to take delight in inflicting suffering for its own sake!

It is particularly important NOW; as for some time it has been clear that WE ARE LIVING IN THE TIME OF THE END prophesied by Daniel (Chapter 12:9); THE LAST DAYS (and) PERILOUS TIMES spoken of by the apostle Paul (2 Timothy 3:1);  and the time of: “Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time,” foreseen by the apostle, John. (Revelation 12:12)

The “wrath” of Satan did not begin three years ago with the “Plandemic,” “clot-shots,” “lockdowns” and “track and trace.” The devils intensified attacks on humanity was being planned centuries ago; and has been implemented over the past 150 years and more!

Clandestine, influential and powerful organisations; many a part of the reclusive Illuminati; including the Catholic, Jesuit order, Freemasons, Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg Group; and billionaire banking dynasties like the Rothschild’s and Rockefellers to name just two; have in some cases dictated the development and shape of society and governance since the Middle Ages until now. Satan has subtly led them ideologically towards developing a mechanistic, digital, post human future.

Behind the façades of altruism, decency, piety and respectability; these men, their families and organisations (often set up as “charitable trusts”) ARE IN LEAGUE WITH THE DEVIL; and have been systematically creating the structures; first to control the earths billions; and finally to eliminate up to nine tenths of all people alive today!

“THEY” would not have any hope of achieving their despicable aims without the use of blatant deception and lies; often tied to occult practices and the use of sophisticated psychological techniques. Until recent years, the vast majority of people were in near total ignorance of their demonic rituals and evil plans (even though they have been often represented in movies)!

Millions who are now “awake,” following the global “Plandemic” of 2020-2022, know what the evil elite have planned for the masses, and are actively resisting.

“THEY” are no longer hiding their plans. The UN, World Bank, WHO and World Economic Forum (WEF founded by Klaus Schwab), now openly publishes their vision of the future in print and online. Schwab heralds the Covid-19 pandemic as the opportunity to “re-imagine” our world and introduce the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” in his 2020 book, THE GREAT RESET; co-authored with the extremist, Israeli “historian” Yuval Harare.  It is a manifesto predicting a dystopian, hi-tech, “post human” future where, “you will own nothing and be happy.”

TO BE FOREWARNED IS TO BE FOREARMED

The VOICE of Prophecy! Final Warning Jubilee Edition: 20/22 references several written sources and documentaries in its pages that are worth taking a closer look at, if you haven’t already done so:

One of the lead articles, “THE BIG CORONA VIRUS LIE!” (Pages 8 & 9), explains how the evil elite employed Hitler’s Nazi German technique (borrowed from the British) to bamboozle the masses with propaganda, misinformation and LIES – THE BIGGER THE BETTER!

But we would be wrong in thinking that lying as a policy was invented for World War 2. LYING, as we have already noted, is a technique deployed by Satan, and is as old as the hills! So endemic and widespread is its use throughout “history” (much of which is also laced with lies), that it is difficult for anyone brought up in the past two centuries to distinguish TRUTH from FICTION.

WE HAVE BEEN BORN, BREAD AND WEANED ON LIES! So were our parents and their parents too!

A helpful rule of thumb is to look at any information being put out for public consumption; particularly by governments, as virtually the exact opposite to the truth. Another favourite trick of theirs is to mix truth with lies; thus creating confusion and doubt. We saw this technique used time and time again during the recent “Plandemic.” But again, IT IS NOT NEW!

Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion   

Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion; or to give it its full title: Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion; was first published in Russia in 1903; translated into multiple languages and circulated internationally in the early 20^th century. Famously, Henry Ford funded the printing of 500,000 copies that were distributed throughout the United States in the 1920s.

If you search for this work online (where it is said by Wikipedia to be widely available), you will be told firstly it is “anti-Semitic;” that distillations of it were assigned by some German teachers; they became required readingin Nazi Germany in 1933: and secondly that it is a HOAX.

The book purports to describe a “Jewish Plan” for global domination. Since we hold that those “who say they are Jews” ARE NOT; but in fact are Eastern European, Ashkenazi, Revelation 3:9; who are falsely claiming to be the decedents of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob – renamed ISRAEL by God: the protestations of no doubt Ashkenazi Jewish scholars that the work is a “fabrication,” plagiarised from earlier sources ring very hollow indeed.

You only have to read the “summary” overview of the contents to SEE that what were “plans” 120 years ago have almost completely come to fruition; and the chief marshals of their implementation have been prominent, Ashkenazi Jewish banking families!

Structure and Content

“The Protocols purports to document the minutes of a late-19th-century meeting attended by world Jewish leaders, the “Elders of Zion”, who are conspiring to take over the world. The forgery places in the mouths of the Jewish leaders a variety of plans, most of which derive from older antisemitic canards. For example, the Protocols includes plans to subvert the morals of the non-Jewish world, plans for Jewish bankers to control the world’s economies, plans for Jewish control of the press, and – ultimately – plans for the destruction of civilization. The document consists of twenty-four “protocols”, which have been analyzed by Steven Jacobs and Mark Weitzman, who documented several recurrent themes that appear repeatedly in the 24 protocols, as shown in the following table:”

Wikipedia

If this document is a “forgery,” it is a REMARKABLY PRESCIENT one; as most if not ALL ITS “PLANS” have come to fruition!

The article on page 41, “THE GREAT RESET!” makes reference to several of the 24 protocols and their “themes.” Leave aside the “nationality” or ethnic origin of those responsible: it is patently TRUE that a small, influential, global elite; from a basket of related family dynasties, HAS CONTROL over industry, culture, commerce, banking, education, medicine, media, science, technology, sports, energy, land and food production. That the majority of these powerful men and women are of Ashkenazi Jewish heritage is irrefutable!

Seven “Prophetic” Protocols

There is some overlap between the 24 protocols; The Great Reset article alludes to 9 in summary: “Might is Right – Economic War – Ubiquitous Propaganda – Destruction of Religion – Nullification of Education – Organised Disorder – Acquisition of Land – Worldwide War – Jewish Rule.”

I’m going to review seven of the 24 protocols more closely; six from the list above and one other quoted in the penultimate paragraph of the cover letter in the magazine, opposite page 3 in The VOICE of Prophecy! It reads:“The “Learned (Jewish) Elders” have indeed turned the minds of the masses from to “the essential to the nonessential.”” Jacobs and Weitzman (J&W) summarise the themes of this 13^th protocol as: “Gentiles; Business; Chosenness/Election; Press and censorship; Liberalism.” (This overlaps with protocol 12: Kingdom of the Press and control)

(As there is a lot to cover, even looking at only 7 protocols, I need to be brief,)

1)  Turning Public Thought from Essentials to Non-essentials

What is ESSENTIAL, and what is “NON-ESSENTIAL?”

Most people would agree that water, food, clothing, shelter and fuel for heating and cooking are essential. In the affluent, developed economies in the “northern hemisphere;” until recently, even the “working class” had largely been able to take THESE for granted. Now, with the manufactured “cost of living crisis,” poorer “citizens” are increasingly finding themselves caught between affording “heating and eating.”

These same “poor people” would likely agree that a television, car, eating out, foreign holidays, smoking and gambling are “non-essential.” And yet, despite their limited means, even the poorest citizens in “the West” not only aspire to but often “indulge” in all of the above!

But the real “ESSENTIAL” that the Learned Elders want to distract people from (and have largely succeeded in doing) is KNOWLEDGE OF GOD! THEY have created a world full of meaningless activity and entertainment. Generally, the masses are more concerned about “pointless celebrities,” overpaid sports personalities; “film stars,” fictional stories and fantasies, virtual reality, or violent computer games; most laced with every kind of moral degradation and evil!

THEIR goal is to seduce us into believing that acquisition of material things, money  and “fame” is equal to success in life; and to leave little of or no room for the real purpose of our being: a spiritual connection to God!

THEY own the influential film, TV, radio, press, publishing and digital media corporations that have produced and peddled a torrent of increasingly socially destructive, morally debasing “entertainment,” NEWS and documentaries. As they say: “When we want your opinion, we’ll tell you what it is!”

2)  The All-Embracing Propaganda

(J&W summary: Law; education; Freemasonry)

Many educated in “Western institutions” will have been made aware of the historical use of PROPAGANDA in European countries (including the colonised Americas and Caribbean); when we learn about its deployment as a “weapon” in the First and Second World wars.  In the UK, the secondary school “history” curriculum is disproportionately weighted to studying these two periods of global conflagration; but propaganda did not start in 1914 nor end in 1945.

In the “histories” of the “civilised west,” one will find copious evidence of the use of propaganda by rulers, religious and political leaders, corporations and commercial enterprises.  Among the ancient inscriptions of Samaria, Egypt, Babylon and Syria, there are plenty of examples of propaganda. And, in the modern world we have long been overwhelmed by persistent waves of disinformation, misinformation and outright LIES; generally in the form of ADVERTISING, opinion polls, or the use of government statistics!

It is ironic that this very treatise, devised by “Jewish Elders” in the late 1800’s, was used in Nazi Germany by Adolph Hitler to implicate and vilify the *Ashkenazi Jews; turning the allegedly “superior” Aryan German citizens against their *Jewish neighbours; who, between the wars, at a time of severe economic depression, were largely in control of banks, businesses and wealth.

An “All-Bracing Propaganda” was turned against German Jews, Gypsies, Blacks, the disabled, homosexuals and others deemed “inferior;” to dehumanise them in the eyes of the “master race;” who ultimately herded them like animals into concentration, DEATH CAMPS!

(If you think it’s inconceivable that *JEWS could betray their own people: consider the role of the Rothschild’s, *Jewish bankers during the Napoleonic and two World Wars; and the conduct of men like George Soros following the World War 2; or the “treatment” of modern Israelis during the “Plandemic;” how they were forced to take the harmful, mutagenic (*Bill Gates funded), “Covid-19 clot-shots”–The evil elite only serves itself and Satan; having little sympathy or regard for ANY human life!)

3)  The Destruction of Religion by Materialism

(J&W summary: Business as Cold and Heartless; Gentiles as slaves)

It’s hard to believe now: but up until about 120 years ago, the western nations and many there colonies (about 570m people) believed in the God of the Hebrew Bible; and the Muslims who made up a tenth of earth’s 2 billion human populations worshiped the same God by a different Name. Indeed, most of the wars and conflicts in Europe and the Middle East, from the Middle Ages onwards, were conflicts between Christians and Muslims; Christians and other Christians; and Muslims against other Muslims!

HOW COULD THIS BE? If over one quarter of earth’s population nominally believed in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; how is it there has been constant killing between them for over 1,500 years? In a way, followers of ישוע המשיח shouldn’t be surprised. Jesus prophesied the very same:

“And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.”                         

(Matthew 23:5-8, NKJV)

We know from the book of Acts, and the Epistles of Peter, Paul, Jude and Jacob (mistitled, James) and John; that apostasy took place in the first century church, within the apostle’s lifetimes. By the third century AD the “Christian” church was subsumed by Emperor Constantine and the Roman Empire; who merged with it pagan, roman customs, and soon banned “Jewish” (Christian) practices. God’s laws kept by ישוע (Yeshua) and the early apostles as an example of “The Way” His followers should live were OUTLAWED by this apostate, CATHOLIC CHURCH! And successive popes would claim to sit “in place of Christ!”   

Again, ישוע warned his disciples; the “church” (God’s kingdom in embryo) would be taken over by “unbelievers,” sown by the devil:

(Explaining the parable He had earlier told “great multitudes gathered before him;” Jesus said this to his disciples, privately)

He answered and said to them: “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.  The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.  The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels.  Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age.  The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

(Matthew 13:37-43, NKJV)

Since corruption entered the congregations of Christ from the very beginning; one might ask: “Why is it necessary to destroy religion by materialism?”

The answer is also found in this example parable of the kingdom of God: the “good seeds” are in the same field (churches or congregations) as the tares. Christ knows who they are, because they are set apart by His spirit; and are led and live by it. The “Learned Elders” want to lure Christ’s true followers away from their SPIRITUAL CALLING by material enticements!

ישוע warned of this danger in His earlier parable of the sower:

“Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.”                           

(Matthew 13:22, NKJV)

The EVIL ELITE has constructed a MATERIALIST world designed to “choke the word” and spirit of God out of our lives! Because the Devil will not be satisfied with destroying our bodies only: he wants to rob us of the GIFT of ETERNAL LIFE!

4)  The Nullification of Education

FOR CENTURIES the ruling elites restricted the dissemination of knowledge beyond that necessary to keep their serfs productive and able to serve them better. Ignorant people are far easier to control (even those who are skilful). They also find themselves dependent on those with greater knowledge, and consequently more readily accept their lowly station in life.

(Throughout Europe and in the “New World,” the elites have always had their own, exclusive educational institutions. In England, Oxford, Cambridge, Eton and the Royal Academy are all “universities” of historic renown. Harvard and Yale are the most prestigious in North America; and many equivalent international centres of learning in Paris, Leipzig, Salamanca and Pizza, date back to the 12^th and 13^th Centuries. These provided education for the aristocracy; and selected, rich and influential families)

In the eighteenth century, the heat of the industrial revolution (itself driven by the global controllers who imagined a new, more profitable mechanised world); it became necessary to widen access to education and training beyond patchy, elementary schooling and the city and guilds craft schools; to support the burgeoning industries and expanding trading opportunities.

In the UK, the ad hoc provision of elementary education by voluntary organisation, churches and philanthropists was no longer adequate to meet the needs created by the rapid changes taking place. By the middle of the 19^th century, governments were stepping in; first to foster and increase in education provision through the Church of England and other denominations; and eventually to ensure blanket provision through a network of State and Voluntary schools.

Compared to European countries and America, the UK was very late in providing state education “between 1870 and 1902 … ‘elementary education became both free and compulsory, state elementary and secondary schools were established and central government control over education increased greatly’ (Stephens 1998:77).“ It was undoubtedly held back several decades by fierce opposition from factory owners hungry for child labourers; and the aristocracy who feared mass education would upset the social order.

However, when in finally arrived; the state system retained the divisive, class discriminations endemic in the preponderance of Church of England, voluntary and “public” (private) schools it “inherited.” Competing parties interested in improving the lot of the poor and uneducated; were equally determined to ensure that by doing so, they did not upset the status quo; and allow the “lower classes” to take away from their wealth and privilege! While education inevitably led to rise of a “middle class;” the “controllers” have been careful to make sure the overall effects of universal education has be “NULLIFIED!”

Just a Brick in the Wall

It cannot be contested that the situation of the UK poor and poor children in particular has improved “out of sight” over the past 120 years (although it is now slipping back alarmingly); nevertheless, glass ceilings exist to ensure no one rises above their “station;” and “slums” are deliberately maintained or created to incubate an expendable social underclass.

People of a certain age will remember the hit record, ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL, by Pink Floyd. I remember this award winning song, released 44 years ago, in 1979, the very same year I was going through teacher training at Goldsmiths College in London. It was in the early days of music videos; it featured live film, and some simple but powerful animated sequences.

The lyrics, music and visuals managed to capture and portray the zeitgeist of the period; reflecting the experiences of many who went through the rigid, post-war, state educational systems of the 50s, 60s; and the unsettling changes of the 70s:

“We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone

Hey, teacher, leave them kids alone
All in all, it’s just another brick in the wall
All in all, you’re just another brick in the wall”

The video for Part 2 pictured secondary school pupils streaming out of their city, tower blocks (in sink estates) into fenced off buildings and playgrounds; where the exuberance of youth was contrasted with the oppressive, dictatorial “teaching” methods designed to impose conformity on the next generation. The educational process is likened to a mincing machine; churning out “material” to produce the building blocks of the soulless cities into which the “educated” must eventually fit.

The school teacher is represented as a grotesque marionette, complete with a liberally wielded cane in hand. The animation shows him shape-shifting into a claw hammer, the head containing a loudspeaker. By implication, the beleaguered pupils become an “army” of marching claw hammers.

Pink Floyd had articulated what generations of state educated pupils had felt; and raised larger questions about the motives as well as the methods employed by the authorities and their brainwashed minions.

The poor had been elevated from a position of abject poverty and ignorance; to relative health and “security” in exchange for restricted liberty and mind control.

However lofty the ideals and rhetoric, mass education, delivered under the auspices of the Church or the State, has always been about serving the institutions, not the individuals! Unless privately educated; MOST of US are victims of this system.

A Case in Point

In my own case; before embarking on a teaching career in October 1979; I had barely achieved minimum GCSE qualifications to advance to degree studies. Had it not been for my talent for art, and the encouragement of my subject teacher, Mr Barnaby; I would almost certainly have left school and “drifted” into whatever work presented itself to those with few and average pass certificates.

Of course, I could have signed up for an apprenticeship in any number of practical skills at the local technical college. In retrospect, this would have been a sensible choice, had I not succeeded in boosting my grades by retaking my exams in English and Maths; opening the door to a degree level course in fine art painting. In the end, with a lot of extra effort, my final years of secondary education turned out to be a success.

However; had I know then what I know now; I would have realised that while useful for the development of social skills; the education system was actually leading me away from what I actually wanted to be (when I understood myself well enough) toward something IT directed me to become. We are led to believe we are choosing our own career and forging out own future: when the opposite is true!

There is much I could write to support this conclusion; but for the purpose of this article, it is enough to say: after qualifying as a teacher, and working over the course of 35 years in education, social, youth, prison and probation programmes; I know now, I might with application have become the successful, self-taught musician I am today, without years of expensive studies and training. The system did not open my mind to the possibilities of “making a living” as an independent, creative artist or entrepreneur, in the way private education does.

Empty Vessels

Something far more insidious than mere misdirection of the masses is being “engineered” by the evil overseers: nine tenths of what is being taught in schools and universities today is effectively “WORTHLESS!”  “How could that be?” I hear you ask! As I’ve said: it is hard to comprehend how totally manufactured our understanding of LIFE and THIS WORLD is!

Reading, writing and arithmetic (the three R’s); could be mastered by most in a few years of primary instruction, not necessarily in a “school.” What the education systems dispenses is designed to support the world the controllers have built, and are now busily deconstructing! Really useful education would teach people how to farm, construct a home, to look after ones health, and basic first aid. All of this knowledge is available; but only on specialist courses; and skewed towards the industrial world rather than home and family.

It was noticeable during my upbringing how the educational system was veering towards increasing specialisation; teaching individuals more and more about less and less; until the individual loses sight of “The Big Picture!” The curricula has become so divorced from reality, that graduates can now take a Masters degree in “The Fab Four;” studying influence of The Beatle’s music (which we now know they didn’t write) on popular culture. They and other rock bands, like the Rolling Stones, were used as a tool of the establishment, to erode social and moral values.

As if sociology, psychology, geography, history, economics and (dare I say) art courses aren’t useless enough! The knowledge covered may have some merit in itself; but in the context of “the system” is used to perpetuate the MYTHS of this modern world – which truly is A MATRIX.  We’re taught that “in order to understand the present we need to understand the about the past;” which is precisely why the manipulating elites don’t reveal the TRUTH about history, geography or economics; and want to replace real knowledge of God with materialism; and nullify education!

As the apostle Paul wrote almost 2000 years ago: we’re in a world where we are “always learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth!”

(2 Timothy 3:7)

THEY ARE KILLING US!

WHY CHARLES WILL NOT BE KING!

By Philip John: KING

As I write, preparations are well under way for the “coronation” of “king” Charles Phillip Arthur George, as King Charles III of England, Scotland, N Ireland and Wales. But as far back as 2002, The VOICE of Prophecy, Golden Jubilee Edition published an article on “Why Charles Will Not Be King!”

Nothing has changed in the intervening 22 years; so despite all the pomp and ceremony of this Sabbath day, Charles like all his progenitors before him will NEVER be a king before God, let alone over any of God’s peoples! And the massive, global “psyop” won’t change reality!

Those interested in understanding why Charles will not be king; and what it means to be a king, might want to read these articles:

Why DIANA had to DIE! & Why Charles will NOT Be King!

The END of The LINE

*(New Millennium Edition, 2004/2008, pp. 22, 24-25)

The “temporal powers” know well that true “kingship” can only really be conferred by God: hence the elaborate display of the trappings of monarchy and empty “religious” ceremony – invoking the name of God and diverse biblical symbolism. One being transporting the “Stone of Scone” or Stone of Destiny from Scotland: said (very unlikely) to be Jacob’s pillar stone, which he set up as a monument after his first encounter and covenant with God in his dream of a ladder up to heaven. (Genesis 28:11-19)

DON’T BE FOOLED! These are all Satan’s counterfeits! Remember the words of Jesus Christ; our TRUE and ONLY KING: “by their fruits you shall know them.”

*IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE: Like all earlier edition of The VOICE of Prophecy!; this edition adheres to the erroneous“BRITISH ISRAEL” doctrine, promulgated by the secret societies and cults controlling global affairs for more than two centuries; a doctrine which has never been supportable by the true facts of history.

JAMES BOND – Blueprint for GENOCIDE?

IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE LATEST JAMES BOND MOVIE, NO TIME TO DIE; IT IS WORTH WATCHING.

Normally, I would be the last person to watch or even recommend a James Bond movie; I don’t feel that 2 hours (plus) of licensed KILLING, WOMANISING and criminal megalomania is the most wholesome form of “entertainment.”

HOWEVER, I was very tempted to watch “BOND-25” (the 25^th movie in the James Bond franchise), not because of its fantastical storylines or gripping action sequences; but mainly because I was aware that some of the action was filmed in JAMAICA (all those years ago). And I figured: “this may be the closest I get to Jamaica in a long time unless they lift the requirement to be jabbed of tested like cattle.”

SO I WATCHED “NO TIME TO DIE”: AND I CAN SEE NOW WHY IT’S RELEASE WAS DELAYED, TIME AND TIME AGAIN!

One of the causes for the film’s delayed release was the departure of the original director, Danny Boyle, who was replaced by Cary Joji Fukunaga. Also, DANIEL CRAIG, the lead actor suffered and injury to his ankle while filming in Jamaica for which he needed a minor operation. Even so, the film was due to be released on 2 APRIL 2021.

THE ARRIVAL OF THE “PLANDEMIC,” and subsequent closure of many of the cinema chains around the globe led to the decision by distributors to delay its release until November 2020. In October, the date was pushed back again; and as 2 April 2021 drew near, this too proved to be an inopportune moment, as many European cinema chains were still in “LOCKDOWNS.”

Daniel Craig’s final appearance as JAMES BOND eventually premiered in the Royal Albert Hall on 28 September 2021.

Of course, all along, trailers for the movie have been released to wet the public appetite; introducing some of the key characters in the movie and a little of the narrative, chiefly revolving around actions sequences. What in my view is more interesting is key elements of the plot that the trailers LEAVE OUT…

MY REVIEW

But having seen the movie, I believe “NO TIME TO DIE” was never intended for “release” to the global population BEFORE the coronavirus “plandemic.” Or, to be more precise, BEFORE the MASS, COVID-19 “VACCINATION” programme was well under way.

In a film full of worn out clichés and implausible plots, TWO THEMES STAND OUT: one is the development of a BIOLOGICAL DISEASE (including nanotechnology) capable of being TARGETED at specific DNA profiles; and two is the use of the GLOBAL SURVEILLANCE system to TRACK AND TRACE anyone and everyone (which of course isn’t new).  COMBINING the former with the latter, we arrive at the thrust of this narrative: the “super villain’s” desire to ELIMINATE VAST SWATHES OF HUMANITY.

There is a telling scene (toward the end of the movie, after all of the impossible and nonsensical CAR CHASING), where the evil, psychotic, yet remarkably savvy villain and Bond exchange “world views.” LYUTSIFER SAFIN (Lucifer Satan?) basically believes humans are a disease that needs to be controlled and/or eradicated; but our hero believes humans are unique and have a right to life and self expression (which doesn’t sit well with the fact that Bond expends truck loads of ammunition from the beginning to the end of the movie dispatching as many people as he can?).

THIS MOVIE clearly contains the “BLUEPRINT” for the EVIL ELITES global extinction plan, and is TOO CLOSE TO THE TRUTH to have been unleashed on the public psyche BEFORE they had “pulled the trigger,” and started distributing their “vaccines” containing the deadly, graphene oxide, nanotechnologies.

Not everyone will experience serious side effects from these “vaccines;” and the shots being administered DIFFER in their formulation. Celebrities and government officials who publicly take the shot(s) are like to receive a placebo (or nothing at all)! The full effects of the new technology being injected into people may not be felt for MONTHS or YEARS; but they will be lifelong and life-limiting!

ISRAELI GOVERNMENT STATISTICS (one of the most vaccinated populations in the world) SHOW THAT THE RISK OF DEATH OR INJURY FROM VACCINES IS UP TO 40 TIMES GREATER THAN FROM COVID-19.

This is NO TIME TO GAMBLE with your health and life. Don’t be a VICTIM of these evil megalomaniacs whose avowed goal is to DEPOPULATE THE EARTH!

As usual, the villains are HAVING A LAUGH at, or “crowing” over, their victims: getting them to sit in a darkened room for the best part of 3 HOURS, in all likelihood having been “jabbed” with killer, mRNA gene therapies; watching a melodrama entitled NO TIME TO DIE!

Without betraying the ending of the movie; I simply remind the reader that this is Daniel Craig’s last appearance in the role of JAMES BOND – shaken, not stirred.

If you are a James Bond fan, and you’re eager to see “BOND 26;” I suggest you avoid taking ANY of the “vaccines” being doled out by governments.
