EXPERIENCE THE POWER OF RESURRECTION

Chapter Five:
By: Rev. Joshua Omolo (Gwara)

What is Resurrection?
Resurrection or Anastasis is the concept of coming back to life after death. People fear death because
it’s usually perceived as the end of a matter, but with God that is not the end. Death can be simply
defined as the irreversible cessation of all vital functions of the body for instance the permanent
stoppage of the heart, respiration and brain activity; the aftermath of this usually leads to
decomposition of the dead body. God has the power to reverse and overcome death. The dry bones in
the valley as witnessed by Prophet Ezekiel were in this state. Nobody would dare imagine that the dry
bones would come back to life again because death is permanent in the terrestrial world, but God
through His supernatural power commanded prophet Ezekiel to prophesy to the dry bones and the dry
bones came back to life.
Another good news is that Jesus conquered death after his resurrection. Our God is a supernatural God;
He’s not limited by the laws of nature. Jesus’ resurrection opened a new chapter where the power of
death was dealt a blow once and for all. All those who believe and trust upon the Lord Jesus can now
experience the power of resurrection in their walk with God through the redemption power in the blood
of Jesus; we have conquered death glory to God in the highest.
We Have conquered Death
Nevertheless, again and again scripture proclaims in praise and thanks giving that through the death and
resurrection of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, he also conquered death and in so doing he has opened
the door of eternal life to those who once were estranged from death. In the book of 1Cor 15:54 – The
sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is in the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is the silver bullet and the
game changer to life eternity and this is the outstanding uniqueness that separates our God from other
gods.
Rev. 1:18 – And I hold the keys of death and Hades….. Possessing the keys of Death means that the
risen Christ has control and authority over death, consequently this means that everyone who is a
carrier of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ also has conquered death. The devil has no chance at all to
take back this keys from Jesus. Our victory day was on the third day of resurrection when Jesus
conquered death; we have now been made more than conquerors through Christ Jesus.
Great scientific discoveries have been recorded regarding pharmaceuticals that cure certain life
threatening diseases across the world but none has been found to resurrect the dead. Only Jesus has
conquered death through the power of his resurrection. Only Jesus can give the power of resurrection
from death back to life. When the enemy comes to attack your health in order to inflict premature
death then resurrection power of Jesus is the healing power which is required to neutralize venom of
death. Jesus can bring life back to that dead thing in your life through the power of resurrection in Jesus
name.

What is Death?
Death is a bad spirit and if not checked it can destroy life in so many ways. The only way to defeat death
is to engage spiritual weapons to counter its negative effects accordingly. Death has only one agenda
which is to separate life from the body and to cut short the God given destiny. Failure to prioritize the
need to defeat death is such a high risk not worthy taking. The risk of death is not limited only to the
physical body but to anything that carries life and this includes the ground, vision, womb, hope of
eternity with Christ, career and factors that drive our life. The spirit of death can kill your physical body
prematurely, it can also kill your vision, business, make womb to become barren and it can also kill your
intellect.
Dead ground can never produce harvest regardless of how much effort of cultivation, this is evident in
the book of Genesis 3:17 – To Adam He said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the
tree about which I commanded you, ‘you must not eat from it’ cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life”. The ground started producing
thistles and thorn bushes which was not any beneficial to support the food supply to mankind. All these
compounded together simply means that the ground lost its life of fertility and productivity due to the
sin committed by the first man Adam and Eve when they ate of the forbidden fruit.
Many women have remained barren because their wombs are dead., you will be shocked that the same
barren women have such a positive doctors report that shows that they are well biologically. After going
through the the lab tests everything about them is perfect but they can’t conceive because their
challenge is more spiritual than physical. Only the resurrection power in the blood of Jesus can restore
the power of seeing through the healing power to the eyes of a blind man just like God did to
Bartimaeus (Mark 10:46). The blind beggar had eyes but he could not see because his eyes were dead,
meaning the eyes of the blind man had no life. This teaches us that the relevance of anything is in the
life of that object. The Bible says in the book of John 10:10 – I am come so that they may have life, and
may have it more abundantly.
The Need for Abundant Life
Many marriages exist only by name but they have no life at all; this makes the reason why they cannot
fulfill the purposes of marriage. Spouses that find themselves at the center of dead marriages are
groaning in pain, they are full of bitterness and anger against one other to an extent that some have
gone to a level of plotting how they can eliminate their spouses because they now perceive them as a
stumbling block.
Toxic relationships in marriages is a byproduct of dead relationships. The wife cannot see anything good
in her husband and the same applies to the husband. Many people divorce today because the fire of
love in their relationship died long time ago. Good news is that Jesus can restore life back to every dead
faculty of your being through the power of resurrection in the Lord Jesus (John 10:10 – The thief comes
only to steal, to kill, and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it in abundance
Life is the foundation of growth and expansion. Where there is life there is freshness and vitality. Its only
through life that one can remain relevant in the world in order to fulfill the purpose of his existence. Life
in Jesus is more than breathing in and out. Abundant life is purpose driven life; it’s the point where we
acknowledge our maker through worship in truth and spirit hence we stop being busy bodies and

instead we become impactful to our generation in a positive manner. People who are dead spiritually
always discharge negative energy to the people around them. While those who are alive spiritually
through the salvation of our Lord Jesus Christ discharge positive energy to the people around them. We
can birth our resurrection power through prophetic utterance just like Ezekiel did in the valley of dry
bones.
Birthing resurrection power through the tongue
The tongue has the power of life and death (Proverbs 8:21). Spoken word of faith in Jesus can activate
life in a dead situation or in a dead person and the resultant byproduct will be resurrection; this means
the resurrection of the dead back to life. Everyone who believe in Christ Jesus as Lord and savior has the
power to prophetically speak a word of life to his situation and it shall come to pass. Positive confession
will always lead to positive energy which inspires life, it’s quite unfortunate that in many instances
majority of people are always find themselves embroiled in negative space in life. Persistent negative
confession can give the devil a foothold to lay claim of our being because our words as believers are so
powerful.
Prophetic utterance of the word of repentance is key to holistic restoration of our relationship with God.
Its only through positive word of repentance that you can choose heaven through salvation. In Romans
10:10 – For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you
profess your faith and are saved.
You can choose today to start a new way of life where your words will be full of positive energy, the
way you talk about your children or your boss or your church leaders matters a lot. Your words have
serious ramification as far as your destiny is concerned because it can either make you or break you.
Positive confession can activate power of resurrection in your family and bring back to life the lost
passion of love in your relationship. Probably you have lost the fire of intimacy between you and your
spouse and the magnet of attraction is totally dead, you only need to start addressing your spouse
positively and engage love language by faith. Positive word will act as a seed planted in a garden, it will
sprout and grow and finally bear the fruits of joy, unity, and love.
You might struggle as you begin to transform your language because the thing died long time ago but
you need not to give up. Persistence is the key to breaking that barrier. Keep on repeating that word of
love and acknowledge positive side of your spouse and finally that will transform his or her countenance
gradually from low to high self-esteem.
Birthing resurrection power through vision
When vision is revealed it gives direction and challenges purposeful living which results into fruitful. Life
giving vision is the basic prerequisite to good success in life. Vision enables you to see the end from the
beginning which then inspires hard work and working smart. Many people walk around today and they
appear like all is well from the outward look but they are hurting in the inside. In-depth analysis can
reveal shocking evidence that many faculties of their life died long time ago. The only portion of them
left is the capacity to breath, eat, sleep and idle around as such they have become busy bodies. Such
persons have no vision that is driving their life as far as their destiny is concerned.
The power of resurrection is needed to bring back to life every dead vision; this is so important because
vision is the radar that helps in positioning the journey of life. God is the giver of true vision. People

without vision cannot accomplish the will of God pertaining to their life, neither can they live a purpose
driven life; but all is not lost because dead vision can be brought back to life through the power of
resurrection in Christ Jesus.
Proverbs 29:18-19 – Where there is no vision, the people perish; but he that keeps the law, happy is he.
Without vision it becomes extremely hard to see the value that you carry with you. Anybody who cannot
see the value in him or her equally cannot see the value in the person next to him hence cannot speak
positive word of life of that person. Fruitful life begins by appreciating our personality. Thereafter we
can be able to start appreciating great talent and gift of God in us then start refining that gift because
now we can see our end from the beginning. Positive thinking and positive word will then start flowing
from within us; these words are like a river that flows to water a dry land where finally fresh produce
can grow into bumper harvest.
Vision has the power to enable you to discover the real person in you; it has the energy to translate the
coded language of your destiny. When you purpose to become a man or a woman of great vision then
you will not stop at nothing but will invest heavily in things that can help you unveil your vision from the
dream land into reality.
It was through the power pf vision that the dry bones which was revealed to prophet Ezekiel; hence the
dry bones could not resist the power of resurrection after the spoken prophetic word of life was
released by prophet Ezekiel because that visionary word of faith was power packed with life inside it,
the dry bones came back to life through the same power of resurrection after a prophetic word was
made by prophet Ezekiel.
In the book of Isaiah 25:8 – He will swallow up death for all time, and the Lord God will wipe tears away
from all faces, and he will remove the reproach of his people from all the earth; for the Lord has spoken.
Mankind has the opportunity to experience this power against death which was downloaded to all men
by Christ Jesus. Death was the last card the enemy Satan had in place to ensure that mankind will
remain in spiritual bondage for eternity, however the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ
neutralized all these negative plans of the devil. Through repentance now men can restore the power of
resurrection that leads to life eternity through Christ Jesus.
The resurrection of Christ, a central doctrine of Christianity, is based on the belief that Jesus Christ was
raised from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion and that through his conquering of death all
believers will subsequently share in his victory over sin, death, and the devil.
Birthing the power of resurrection through Repentance
Without Christ Jesus we are all dead in sin and the only remedy to our situation is repentance
and turning away from our evil ways of life. Romans 3:23 – for all have sinned and fallen short
of the glory of God; being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ
Jesus.
The story in the Bible about the dry bones coming back to life could not have happened without
the power of resurrection when God spoke to prophet Ezekiel asking whether the dry bones
could live again. Prophetic utterance made by prophet Ezekiel activated the power of
resurrection to perform the miracle and it came to be.

Resurrection is the only killer punch that is able to neutralize and defeat the spirit of death once
and for all. When Jesus gave his life and died on the cross the devil together with his agents
threw a party but their celebration was short-lived because of the power of resurrection.
Apostle Paul is writing to the Philippian church about his desire to know the power of the
resurrection of our Lord Jesus in the book of Philippians 3:10-12 – I want to know Christ and
experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead…….
There is such a great power behind the mystery of resurrection, it doesn’t just occur casually
because this power is solely meant to undo and reverse the power of death. The power of
resurrection must originate from a superior source which is higher and above the realm of the
levels where the spirit of death is operational. Jesus knew very well that this was the secret
card which was to become the game changer in the deliverance battle royal.
Jesus was adamant about the third day because it was to be the day of manifestation of
resurrection and that it represents God’s pattern of creating new life and establishing covenant
with humanity. If you will allow Jesus to come into your life today, then God is able impart a
supernatural and divine power of resurrection to start bringing back to life every part of your
being that is dead. The power of resurrection is able to restore life back into your womb from
bareness to bear children, its able to restore profitability back to your business which is going
under, the same power is able to restore life back to your dead vision in Jesus name.
1John 11:25-26 – Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in
me will live, even after dying. Everyone who live in me and believes in me will never ever die.”
If only you believe and say yes to Jesus as savior over your life, then all the power and the spirit
of death which has imprisoned your children in drugs and substance abuse can restore them
back to become great leaders of their generation. Repentance is the key to enter into Jesus and
live in him for eternity. All other forms and practices devised by men cannot amount to
forgiveness apart from having faith in Jesus Christ.
Repentance and forgiveness have a profound impact on one’s spiritual state, particularly
regarding the concept of death.
What is Repentance?
Repentance involves recognizing one’s sins, feeling remorse for them, and turning away from
sinful behavior. When someone repents sincerely, they seek to align their actions with God’s
will and strive to live according the will of God and the teachings in the Bible which is the word
of God. This transformation is supposed to bring about restoration and reconciliation with God
in order to make the individual ready for eternity.
Eternal space is a place where carnality cannot survive, it’s a place where death has no power
and where sin is none existent. The other reason for resurrection power is to restore the hidden
potential in you. Many people are yet to discover their gifts and talent that God gave to them.
Some people are aware of their talents but haven’t refined yet. Any life supported by energy

sourced from raw talent can’t achieve anything substantial. Majority of men are carrying dead
stock gifts which are yet to be discovered and are still existing in form of raw materials.
What is Forgiveness?
Forgiveness, both receiving it from God and extending it to other men, is central to Christian
doctrine. Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, believers are offered forgiveness for their sins
when they confess them and turn to God in repentance, this forgiveness brings about
reconciliation with God and restoration of the broken relationship with God which was caused
by sin. Additionally, forgiving others is emphasized in the Bible as essential for maintaining
healthy relationships and experiencing God’s forgiveness.
Impact of Forgiveness in relation to Death
Romans 3:23-26 – For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God, being justified freely
by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus; whom God has set forth to be a
propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare righteousness for the remission of sins that are
past, through the forbearance of God……
Repentance and forgiveness play a crucial role in how individuals approach death from a
spiritual perspective. Foe believer, the assurance of forgiveness through Christ’s sacrifice
provides comfort and hope in the face of mortality. By repenting of sins and seeking
forgiveness, the believers in Christ Jesus can approach death with confidence, knowing that
their relationship with God is secure and that they will be welcomed into His presence for
eternity.
Forgiveness of sin restores the glory of God in the life of those who are saved and cleansed by
the blood of Jesus, those who have been counted as righteous by God’s grace. A man whose
sins are forgiven is a son of God, this means forgiveness restores broken or lost relationship.
Once the son ship relationship has been restored then the power of inheritance from the father
kicks in immediately. Everything that is created and owned by God the father automatically
belongs to the sons.
Unlike other species, the central perplexity of human beings is their awareness of the
inevitability of death (Baker, 1997), where the inevitability of death itself fosters fear of death
for human beings in both conscious and unconscious. It was the same death that led to the
existence of dry bones witnessed by prophet Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones.
There are many forms of deaths but the only one which is understood by men is the physical
death that separates life from the physical body. It’s possible for one to be alive physically but
spiritual death is the most tragic part of life. Some of the ways in which spiritual death can
manifest may include economic malfunction, social malfunction, mental incapacitation and
many other forms of stagnation in life.

The origin of all disorders we have in the world today originates from the spiritual realm where
man is separated from experiencing God’s love because of unrepented sins, this therefore
confirms to us that man is more spiritual than physical. The spiritual death is what is
responsible for the many dysfunctions in the faculties of our life. Dysfunctional families,
dysfunctional career, blurred vision, perennial sicknesses and disease, and substance and drug
abuse are all but a clear sign of broken and dead relationship with God the father. Men have
got hope in the power in the blood of Jesus Christ and through resurrection of our Lord Jesus
we can live again and experience the love of God.
Birthing resurrection power through the fear of God
Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. The Bible which is the outstanding Holy Book speaks to
this aspect in the book of Proverbs 9:10. Bible dictionary defines wisdom as deriving from a
relationship with God Himself. Wisdom originates from reverential awe and submission to the
Lord. It comes through a relationship with God, redemptively yielding self in will, heart, and
mind to Him. Fear of God is a prerequisite to wisdom.
Birthing the resurrection power through faith in God
The Bible says in the book od Mathew 17:20 – If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you
can say to this mountain, “move from here to there,” and it will move. Nothing will be
impossible for you. Feeling of impossibility has paralyzed so many ideas that were born. Many
vision are static and have remained in such status for so long because of the same feeling of
impossibilities perception. The things that make us feel like we can’t make it are the mountains
the Bible is talking about. Only the key of faith can move these mountains and the lost passion
to move ahead can be restored to the fullest capacity.
The ten spies out of the twelve who brought the negative report were suffering from the
syndrome of impossibilities perception. But the it took two men who had faith in God and these
men were Caleb and Joshua. Through the faith of two men Israelites were moved from captivity
to the promised land.
You will be called names when you begin to live and operate at the level of faith because faith
in God isn’t common with everybody. Sometimes you will fall on the minority side and if you
are not careful your faith may be shaken because the majority is not with you. But you need not
to give up as long as you know that this faith is about the God of Isaac, God of Abraham and
God of Israel. It was faith in the true God that made Joseph to be thrown into prison when he
refused to commit sin of adultery with Potiphar’s wife. There is a need to get ready to risk even
your life if you are going to have faith in God. Faith in God calls for total surrender to God from
inside out.
One thing I love about faith in God is that it will take you places both the good ones and the
painful ones. Joseph’ same faith that took him to the prison is the same faith that promoted
him to become the prime minister in Egypt. Faith in God can move you from grass to grace

within a twinkle of an eye. God will orchestrate that just for him to be glorified. The thief who
was crucified together with Jesus received instant translation when Jesus promised him an
express ticket to heaven because of faith.
I pray that you will trust God to enable you to start operating in radical faith because that is
what will make you standout in your pursuit for success. There can never be too much risk
when it comes to having faith in God. As a matter of the fact the biggest risk in life is failure to
have faith in God; that is a sure bet to destruction. It is faith in God that will move you from
being ordinary to being extraordinary.
Birthing the power of resurrection through prayers
When Lazarus died, everything including burial ceremony went on as usual because people
believed that once dead then there is no hope of resurrection. But this was about to change
when Jesus came into the scene. The Bible says in the book of John 11:41-44 – So they took
away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that that you have heard
me, I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here,
that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice,
“Lazarus, come out!”. The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen
and cloth around his face.
The big story of resurrection of Lazarus was due to the prayer of Jesus. It was through prayer
that Jesus communicated to God the need for God the father to intervene so that the people
watching may believe in God. Immediately Lazarus came back to life and lived a normal life his
family members.
Prayer which is done according to the will of God the father can revive life into a dead vision.
The objective behind the prayers must be aligned to the purposes and the will of God for it to
succeed. Many prayers are declined by God because of the wrong motives. We must get rid of
selfish motives for us to make a prayer that can cause resurrection and restoration. God must
be the one to be glorified in all our prayers.
Birthing the power of Resurrection through worship
God called Abraham to come out of his people to go to a land that God was going to show him.
The reason behind Abraham coming out of his people was for him to find a location where he
would worship God in truth and in the spirit. After Abraham came out of his people and obeyed
God’s command to go to unknown land then he worshiped God with everything he had.
When God saw how much Abraham loved him and obeyed him he was counted as the
righteous of God and God opened the womb of Sarah who then gave birth to a son Isaac. The
restoration of Sarah’s ability to conceive is a sign of resurrection power of life in the womb.
True worship can open doors that were closed so that you can eat with the kings on the high
table.

Importance of resurrection power in Christ Jesus
The power of resurrection has several doors of advantage to all human being so much so that
it’s just a matter of choice to miss it or have. Some of the great doors that this power has
opened in life include:
i. Hope: Resurrection offers the hope of life beyond death, providing comfort and
assurance to believers. Hope beyond the grave is such a powerful tool that demystifies
the fear of death. Every believer in Jesus Christ is rest assured that life after death is the
ultimate reward for living a faithful life of salvation. It is for this reason that the Bible
says that those who die in the Lord Jesus shall live again because the sting of death has
been defeated by our Lord Jesus Christ through his resurrection power.
ii. Eternal life: It promises believers eternal life in the presence of God after physical death
iii. Victory over death: Resurrection demonstrates God’s power over death, offering
believers victory over the fear of mortality. Our God has given us this unique identity
with Christ Jesus, an identity which is distinctive in that no other religion in the world
has offered its followers. A few of those religion that purport to offer haven’t proved yet
that they have overcome death because their founders are still in the grave till today.
Only Jesus resurrected and is now seated on the right hand of God the father.
iv. Redemption: It signifies the redemption of believers from sin and the restoration of
their relationship with God. Resurrection power is a direct manifestation of restoration
of life back to its originality. The power of restoration is the key to neutralize the trick of
the enemy Satan whose agenda is to steal, kill and destroy. Believers in Christ now
cannot fear Satan because of the threat of death because this challenge is sorted by the
power of resurrection.
v. Transformation: The Bible says in the book of 1John 3:2 – Dear friends, now we are
children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that
when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. Resurrection
involves the transformation of believers into a new, glorified existence, free from the
limitations and imperfections of earthly life. In eternity, we will not need blood to
circulate oxygen to our muscles. Flesh and blood is rooted in the biochemical world,
where nothing lasts forever. Life based in chemical reactions cannot be eternal. The kind
of flesh that decays cannot inherit the eternal realm where the manifest presence of
God is. There must be a radical change, and that change is exactly what the gospel
promises, in a flash, in a twinkle of an eye, at the last trumpet the dead will be raised
imperishable, and we will be changed. 1Corinthians 15:53 – For this corruptible must
put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. But when this corruptible
shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall
come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
vi. Reunion: It promises believers a reunion with departed loved ones in the presence of
God. The Bible in the book of 1Thesalonians 4:16-17 – “For the Lord himself will come
down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the arch angel and with the

trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are alive and
are left will caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord I the air. And so
we will be with the Lord forever”
The concept of reunion as a benefit of resurrection power for believers for believers in
Jesus Christ is rooted in Christian theology. It’s believed that through Jesus’ resurrection,
believers will be reunited with loved ones who have also accepted Jesus as their savior.
This idea brings hope and comfort to many Christians, knowing that death is not the
end, but rather a passage to eternal life and reunion with those they have lost.
vii. Justice: Resurrection implies ultimate justice, where the righteous are rewarded and
the wicked are accountable for their actions. In Christianity, the concept of resurrection
is central to the belief of Jesus Christ. It symbolizes the triumph over death and the
promise of eternal life for believers. It’s seen as an act of divine justice, fulfilling God’s
promise of salvation and redemption for those who have faith in Jesus
These benefits provide a profound spiritual encouragement and motivation for believers to live
faithfully and endure trials with hope.
There are two types of resurrection power; In the book of John 11:23 – Jesus said to her, “Your
brother will rise again” Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the
last day” Jesus said to her I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will
live even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die”
The first one being the resurrection on the last day and the resurrection now. God has given
men an opportunity to experience resurrection now to show case that Jesus is alive and is at
work so that they may receive him as Lord and savior over their life. This world is dying and is in
dire need of the power of resurrection now.

God took this Personally!

All of this would be nothing more than an exercise in history if God hadn’t taken a personal interest in the moon-god and his worshipers—namely, the Amorites. Remember, God called them out specifically when He made his covenant with Abraham.

The moon-god, under various names, was of supreme importance to Amorites in general, and especially to those of Babylon and Canaan.

It shouldn’t be a surprise that the Amorites and their gods tried to interfere with God’s plan for His people right from the Book of Genesis. After God divided the nations at Babel “according to the number of the sons of God,” He chose Abraham to establish a new people as “His allotted heritage.”

So, the principalities and powers, who were no doubt watching Yahweh’s every move, took note when He directed Abraham to Canaan and miraculously intervened on behalf of his nephew, Lot—especially after Abraham and his 318 retainers successfully raided the army of the kings of the east who’d just defeated the Rephaim tribes living in the Transjordan.

They must have been very interested when God miraculously blessed the aged Abraham and Sarah with Isaac. Suddenly, now, the promise of offspring who would be “as the stars of heaven” was a real possibility.

Then things took a strange turn: God told Abraham to take Isaac to the land of Moriah and sacrifice him as a burnt offering.

You have to wonder what was in the minds of the Fallen at this point—after all, human sacrifice was their turf. The detestable rite has been practiced on every continent except Antarctica, but Yahweh had made it clear to Noah that shedding human blood was forbidden. Sacrificing and burning children as an offering to the gods was even more offensive to God. Yet there was Abraham, with Isaac tied up on a pile of wood, ready to plunge a knife into his only son.

It was a test, shocking to us modern Christians. Why would Abraham even listen to a God who demanded such a thing? Well, the world was a lot different then. Human sacrifice was a reality in the world of the Amorites. Archaeologists have found children ritually slaughtered at a number of Amorite sites during the time of Abraham.

Their Sumerian and Egyptian predecessors likewise practiced it; “retainer sacrifice,” the ritual murder of the servants of kings and nobles who’d died, is well documented in the tombs of ancient Ur and the kings of Egypt’s First Dynasty. So, it wouldn’t have been unusual for a god to demand the sacrifice of a loved one in Abraham’s day.

Here’s another significant part of the story: Some scholars believe “the land of Moriah” was “the land of the Amorites,” with the name Amurru losing its first syllable over time the way English-speakers shorten “until” to “till,” a phenomenon called “aphesis.” Connecting Moriah to the Amorites was apparently in the minds of the Jewish translators of the Septuagint, who rendered it from Hebrew into Greek in 2 Chronicles 3:1 as Ἀμωρία—Amōriā.

Why does this matter? Because Mount Moriah, the Mountain of the Amorites, is where David bought the threshing floor of Araunah, upon which Solomon built the Temple. In other words, Mount Moriah is the Temple Mount—Zion.

Have you ever noticed that it was on the third day when Abraham saw the place God had appointed for His message to the rebel spirits? No Christian can miss the symbolic significance of that detail.

That’s where Armageddon will be fought. God staked His claim to that mountain in the nineteenth century BC when He stopped Abraham from harming Isaac in the heartland of the Amorites.

Yahweh telegraphed the coming battle for the land occupied by the moon-god’s followers sometime between 1840 and 1830 BC. Isaac was born around 1851 BC, but since Abraham asked his son to carry the wood up to Mount Moriah, Isaac wasn’t a small child when they traveled to the land of the Amorites.

Four hundred years later, when the Israelites were freed from their oppressors in Egypt, the battle was officially on.

They set out from Elim, and all the congregation of the people of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had departed from the land of Egypt. (Exodus 16:1, ESV)

It’s important to remember that there are no throwaway details in the Bible. The prophets and apostles didn’t add things for just for color, drama, or word count. So, what do we take away from this passage?

Elim is probably in the Wadi Gharandel, a normally dry riverbed in the western Sinai. The Wilderness of Sin must have been the desert that covers the center of the Sinai Peninsula. Now, why would Moses record the specific day of the month when the people entered this wilderness? And what’s the significance of the fifteenth day?

In the ancient Near East, the calendar was based on the cycles of the moon. The fifteenth day was the time the moon was full—meaning the moon-god was at full strength.

Does the name of the desert suddenly make sense?

Yes, the Wilderness of Sîn. That Sîn. The Wilderness of the Moon-god.

The reasons behind the name of the desert should be apparent. In a land where daytime temperatures in the summer average 97 degrees Fahrenheit (36 Celsius), one travels at night whenever possible. Since the moon’s predictable changes coincide with fertility cycles, which were important to both humans and herds, the moon-god’s movement through the sky guided the lives of the pastoral nomads who traveled through the wilderness of Sîn.

Just as He did at the Red Sea, Yahweh led Israel on a specific route—in this case, at a specific time—to confront the small-g gods who’d rebelled against His authority.

Not surprisingly, the people complained.

And the whole congregation of the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness, and the people of Israel said to them, “Would that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the meat pots and ate bread to the full, for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.” (Exodus 16:2–3, ESV)

Is it any wonder they grumbled? Moses led them into a land named for one of the most powerful gods of the Amorites on a day when the god was at full strength! They’d already learned how difficult it was to find water in this land; they were three days out from the Red Sea before they found the waters of Marah—and even then, divine intervention was required to make the water drinkable.

How did God respond? The morning after Israel entered the Wilderness of Sîn, when the moon-god was believed to be at full power, Yahweh caused bread to rain down from heaven.

Coincidence? No. It was another demonstration of His power over the supernatural realm, especially over the bene elohim who’d dared to set themselves up as gods. The manna fell from heaven for Israel until the day they crossed the Jordan forty years later.

Here’s another paradigm-shifter: Have you ever considered that Sinai, “the mountain of God” where Moses saw the burning bush, was named for the moon-god? Neither did I. But this isn’t a new idea; scholars have believed that the Mesopotamian moon-god was the origin of the name “Sinai” for more than a hundred years. So, this showdown between Yahweh and Sîn in the middle of the Sinai was more than forty years in the making.

Think about this: It was on the mountain of the moon-god where Yahweh revealed Himself to Moses and where He shared with Moses that His Name was Yahweh.

 

Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I am has sent me to you.’” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations.” (Exodus 3:13–15, ESV) 

God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am the Lord. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by my name the Lord I did not make myself known to them.” (Exodus 6:2–3, ESV)

In other words, “I am Yahweh. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as El Shaddai, but by my name Yahweh I did not make myself known to them.”

So, what does El Shaddai mean? Most probably, “God of the mountains.” Some scholars have assumed that this title was originally applied to the Canaanite creator-god, El. After all, his mount of assembly was Mount Hermon, the most impressive peak in the Near East.

The Amorites, who were considered uncultured mountaineers by the city-dwelling Sumerians, were represented in the Mesopotamian pantheon by an uncivilized god called Amurru. One of the epithets of Amurru was Bêl Šadê, which is Akkadian for “lord of the mountains.” Because you’re observant, you probably noticed the similarity between Bêl Šadê and El Shaddai right off. (The funny-looking š is pronounced “sh.”) Because of this, some scholars believe Amurru was the Amorite original on which the later Hebrews modeled Yahweh.

Of course, that requires believing Moses more or less invented Hebrew religion, an idea we reject. If Jesus, who healed the sick, cast out demons by His own authority, walked on water, and prophesied His own Resurrection, was wrong about Moses, then you and I are in a world of trouble.

But there’s another possibility, and it supports our theory that the moon-god was far more important in the ancient world than we realize. Amurru, which refers to the Amorites as well as to the god of that name, may have been an epithet rather than a proper name.

Instead of “Amurru” being a god who shared the name of the Amorite people, it may have been a title of the moon-god: “Sîn, god of the Amurru-land.”

There is substantial evidence to support the identification of Bêl Šadê, the god of the Amurru-land, with a lunar deity, specifically with Sîn. (1) Harran, from at least the Middle Bronze period until the late Middle Ages, was regarded as a major sanctuary of the moon-god Sîn. And we know in particular that the Amurru-peoples concluded treaties in his temple during the Mari period. (2) There are a number of seal cylinders on which the god Amurru, recognizable by inscription, curved staff, and sacred gazelle, is shown standing under a lunar crescent. If this is felt insufficient to establish his lunar nature, the fact that he sometimes holds or stands before a cult standard atop which is a crescent certainly strongly suggests it. (3) Once we find the sacred staff of the god Amurru on the seal of a devotee of the god Sîn. The inscription reads: E-til-pi4-Ištar…arad dSîn. (4) Several individuals with theophoric names of the Sîn-type describe themselves on their seals as servants of the god Amurru.

We may reasonably conclude, therefore, that the god worshiped by the nomadic Amurru-peoples in the Balikh-Harran region by the epithets “Amurru” and “Bêl Šadê,” at the time of the Mari and Old Babylonian texts, was a lunar deity. Sometimes he is specifically named (or at least identified with) Sîn.

The Balikh-Harran region is precisely where Abraham began his journey to Canaan. Abraham came from a land where the moon-god was called “lord of the mountains.” Is it surprising, then, that Yahweh revealed Himself to the patriarchs as the true God of the mountains, El Shaddai, and that Moses would have his first encounter with Yahweh at har hāʾĕlōhîm, the “mountain of God”?

Moses and the 70!

Moses met Yahweh at Horeb, the mountain of God. But which god? Elohim is a
designation of place, not a proper name. Based on the name Sinai and its location in the middle
of the Wilderness of Sin, it’s reasonable to conclude that in Moses’ day, this mountain was
considered the abode of the moon-god.
Yahweh brought Moses to Mount Sinai during his sojourn with Jethro and the Midianites
for a reason. And He brought the Israelites there right after springing them from Egypt for a
reason. What could that reason be?
Evidence suggests that from the last days of Sumerian rule over Mesopotamia through
the rise of Babylon, the moon-god, Sîn, was the most important deity of the Amorites. It wasn’t
Marduk, although he was the patron god of Babylon, or the elder god, who went by different
names across the Near East—Enlil in the east, Dagan along the Euphrates River (and, later,
Dagon of the Philistines), and El in the west. All across Mesopotamia, Amorites served the
moon-god, whether they hailed from Babylon, which preserved the traditions of Ur, the ancient
city of the moon-god; the north, where Harran was a major moon-god cult center; or from
Canaan, where the oldest city known to man, Jericho, bore the Amorite name for the moon-god,
Yarikh.
Although God’s first supernatural showdown on the way out of Egypt targeted the king of
the Canaanite pantheon, the storm-god Baal, it was to the mountain of the moon-god that
Yahweh led Moses and the Israelites. Imagine what must have been going through the minds of
the people when they realized where they were!
Yet that was where God led the Israelites immediately after their escape from Egypt. And
it was there He called Moses to receive the Law.

Then, God did something even more remarkable. He directed Moses to bring some guests
up the mountain.

Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel
went up, and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a
pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness. And he did not lay
his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they beheld God, and ate and
drank. (Exodus 24:9–11, emphasis added)
It’s impossible to overstate the importance of this brief passage. All of history is about
God’s plan to restore humanity to His divine council. The council originally met in Eden on “the
holy mountain of God.” 1 We’ve been barred from the council because of the sin of Adam and
Eve, but the sacrifice of the Messiah, Jesus, paid the price for our sins and bought back the right
for us to enter the garden someday.
The point is this: The long war between God and the gods is for control of the holy
mountain—the har môʿēd, the “mount of assembly” or “mount of the congregation.” There at
Mount Sinai, Moses, Aaron, and the seventy elders of Israel became the first humans since Adam
and Eve to see God face to face on His holy mountain!
This was a message aimed right at the rebel gods: “My people are free. And someday,
they will take your place in My council.”
Remember—When God divided the nations after Babel, “He fixed the borders of the
peoples according to the number of the sons of God” 2 —angelic beings that He “allotted to all the
peoples under the whole heaven” as the gods of the nations. 3 Remember, too, that the Table of

Nations in Genesis 10 names seventy clans descended from Noah, representing all the people of
the earth.
Seventy nations. Seventy elders of Israel. Coincidence? No way.
By the way, there’s a chance you’re thinking that the story of dinner on Sinai must be a
weird translation. Haven’t we been taught that it’s impossible for humans to see the face of God
and live?
Yes, that’s in the Bible. Moses was in that story, too. That was different, and we’ll come
to that episode in a moment. God did appear to humans in the form of the angel of Yahweh, or
the Angel of the Lord. That was the pre-incarnate Christ.
Well, the moon-god didn’t just surrender. While Moses was up on the mountain for forty
days, the people coerced Aaron into creating an idol—the golden calf.

“Up, make us gods who shall go before us. As for this Moses, the man
who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of
him.” So Aaron said to them, “Take off the rings of gold that are in the ears of
your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” So all the
people took off the rings of gold that were in their ears and brought them to
Aaron. And he received the gold from their hand and fashioned it with a graving
tool and made a golden calf. And they said, “These are your gods, O Israel, who
brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it. And Aaron made a
proclamation and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to the LORD.” And they rose up

early the next day and offered burnt offerings and brought peace offerings. And
the people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. (Exodus 32:1–6)
We should note that the Hebrew word rendered “play” here, tsachaq, is used in other
contexts as a euphemism for sexual activity—for example, Genesis 39:14 and 17, the encounter
between Joseph and Potiphar’s wife. This wasn’t a day of celebrating the holiness of God. This
was a pagan party of carnal indulgence.
Now, it’s easy to empathize with Aaron to a point. It’s hard to stand up to pushy people,
especially groups, and particularly when they’re motivated by the fear that they alone among the
nations were without the protection of a national deity. But, come on—Aaron had personally
witnessed Yahweh supernaturally smack around the two most popular gods in the Amorite
pantheon. (Not that you or I would have done better in his place.)
The excuse Aaron gave to Moses when he came down from Sinai is comical:
Let not the anger of my lord burn hot. You know the people, that they are set on
evil. For they said to me, “Make us gods who shall go before us. As for this
Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what
has become of him.” So I said to them, “Let any who have gold take it off.” So
they gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf. (Exodus
32:22–24)
“Out came this calf”?! Most parents have heard better excuses from seven-year-olds.
Some scholars interpret the golden calf as evidence that Yahweh was a bull-god, or at
least represented by a bull. To be fair, there are passages in Scripture that liken the power of God

to a bull, which was a common theme among gods in the ancient Near East. 4 But that’s not what
this was about.
Several years ago, I speculated that the golden calf represented the storm-god, Baal,
who was sometimes described as a bull. But that wasn’t typical; Baal was usually depicted as a
human in a smiting pose, with a mace in one hand and thunderbolts in the other. It’s more likely
that the golden idol represented “the frisky calf of heaven,” patron god of shepherds and
pastoralists, the god whose mountain the Israelites were camped in front of—the moon-god, Sîn.
God was not amused. His reaction was like His response after Babel: Yahweh told Moses
that Israel had better repent, and they could forget about God traveling with them into the
Promised Land because, as stubborn as they were, He’d probably smite them before they got
there and start over with just Moses.
Well, the people mourned, like children caught doing something they shouldn’t. Based on
future actions, the regret was more about being punished than about disappointing the Creator of
the Universe. (Not that we would have done any better in their place.) Moses, while pleading for
the people, asked Yahweh for a favor:

Moses said, “Please show me your glory.” And he said, “I will make all my
goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name ‘The LORD.’
And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom
I will show mercy. But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for man shall not
see me and live.” And the LORD said, “Behold, there is a place by me where you
shall stand on the rock, and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of
the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will

take away my hand, and you shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen.”
(Exodus 33:18–23, emphasis added)
Why the change since the meal on Mount Sinai? What about those verses that describe
Yahweh talking things over with Moses “face to face”? 5 These are hints of the Trinity in the Old
Testament. The personal encounters of the patriarchs—remember, Abraham ate a meal with God
and bargained with Him to try to save Sodom—was with a visible, physical presence, a form that
concealed His true, overwhelming glory. In a sense, Moses asked for a peek behind the mask.
That’s something Yahweh couldn’t do, not even for Moses.
In any case, God did send His “presence” (pānîm) with Israel to the Promised Land. This
is a concept that’s hard to wrap our heads around. What’s the difference between Yahweh, His
angel, and His presence? In some verses, none. Sometimes, the Angel of Yahweh is obviously
Yahweh, because He takes credit for things that Yahweh did and promised. 6
His “presence,” however, is a little different. The clearest example may be in the priestly
blessing that God taught Aaron:

The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face [pānāy] to shine upon
you and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up his countenance [pānāy] upon you
and give you peace. (Numbers 6:24–26)
It may be of interest that in Ezekiel 38:20, God promises that His presence will be on the
battlefield during the war of Gog and Magog, which concludes with the Battle of Armageddon.
We’ll dig into that in more depth later, but it’s safe to say that the one time you do not want the
Lord to lift up His countenance upon you is when He’s leading the army you’re about to attack.

Armageddon won’t be the first time somebody’s made that bad choice. That’s exactly
what happened about thirty-four hundred years ago in Canaan. And the forces lined up against
the host of Yahweh were devotees of the moon-god.

1 See Ezekiel 28:2, 13–14.
2 Deuteronomy 32:8.
3 Deuteronomy 4:19.
4 See my book Last Clash of the Titans for a more thorough treatment of the
connections between bovid imagery and pagan gods. The old gods of Greece, the Titans, derived
their name from an ancient Amorite tribe, which in turn appears to have been named for the
Akkadian word for “bison” or “aurochs,” an extinct breed of wild cattle that was huge—up to
72” at the shoulders—and very dangerous.
5 See, for example, Exodus 33:11; Numbers 12:6–8; Deuteronomy 34:10–12.
6 For example, Judges 2:1–3: “I brought you up from Egypt.… I said, ‘I will never break
my covenant with you’.… But you have not obeyed my voice. What is this you have done? So
now I say, I will not drive them out before you.”

Mt Hermon and The Watchers

Akiti is the Sumerian form of the word akitu, the name of the Babylonian festival celebrating the new year. It refers both to the holiday and the special building where it was held. Unlike the festival for the chief god Marduk in Babylon, which was held only in the spring, the akiti celebrated for the moon-god Nanna at Ur was also held in the seventh month, around the time of the autumn equinox. The celebration involved the image representing the god traveling by boat from the city to the akiti-house and then returning to the city with great fanfare.

The autumn festival was the more important of the two. Why? Nanna was the patron god of Ur, and the fall akiti, which lasted at least eleven days into the month, took place as the waxing moon grew larger and larger, symbolizing the god’s reentry into his city just as the days were getting visibly shorter and the moon asserted his dominance in the sky over Utu, the sun-god.

Similar festivals were held in many cities for their patron gods, from Ur to Babylon to Harran in northern Mesopotamia. The question is why the ritual required the patron god to travel from his or her city to the akiti-house and back. Scholars who have studied this festival report that “nothing unusually significant occurred” at the akiti-house. So, why bother?

The solution is the obvious. Perhaps the best-known children’s riddle is, “Why did the chicken cross the road?” The answer to this riddle is the obvious: “to get to the other side.” Why then was the akitu-house built outside the city? The answer: “so that the gods could march back into the city.”

But why? We may never know for sure, but there’s a fascinating tidbit buried just beneath the surface of the historical record. It appears the akiti rites at Ur included a ritual procession around the fields outside the walls, presumably to call for divine protection of the crops. This circular march, or circumambulation, was combined with offerings to Nanna, a ritual purification of the gate to the moon-god’s temple, and of course tithing by merchants to the temple.

The significance of the circumambulation ritual will become obvious later in this series. And it may be much, much older than the city of Ur.

In September of 1869, British military engineer and explorer Sir Charles Warren climbed to the summit of Mount Hermon on behalf of the Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF). The PEF was founded in 1865 under the patronage of Queen Victoria. The society included some of the giants in the field of archaeology, such as Sir William Flinders Petrie, T. E. Lawrence (“of Arabia”), Kathleen Kenyon, and Sir Leonard Woolley, who excavated Ur in the 1920s. But it’s no coincidence that many of those sent into the field had military training; by the second half of the nineteenth century, the Ottoman Empire was crumbling, and the great powers of Europe had their knives out, ready to carve up the carcass. While we’ve learned a lot about the ancient world from the work of men like Warren, Petrie, and Lawrence, the British government collected useful intelligence at the same time.

Anyway, on top of Hermon, more than nine thousand feet above sea level, Warren visited an ancient temple called Qasr Antar, the highest manmade place of worship on the planet. It was probably built during the Greek or Roman periods, so it only dates to about the second or third century BC at the earliest.

But inside the temple, Warren found an artifact that had been overlooked by visitors for nearly two thousand years—a stela, a slab of limestone about four feet high, eighteen inches wide, and twelve inches thick, inscribed in archaic Greek:

According to the command of the greatest a(nd) Holy God, those who take an oath (proceed) from here.

Because the inscription is Greek rather than a Semitic language like Aramaic, Hebrew, Canaanite, or Akkadian, the stela probably can’t be dated earlier than Alexander the Great’s invasion of the Levant in the late fourth century BC. But it still connects Mount Hermon to the Watchers of Genesis 6, whose mutual pact on the summit is described in the Book of 1 Enoch:

Shemihazah, their chief, said to them, “I fear that you will not want to do this deed, and I alone shall be guilty of a great sin.” And they all answered him and said, “Let us all swear an oath, and let us all bind one another with a curse, that none of us turn back from this counsel until we fulfill it and do this deed.” Then they all swore together and bound one another with a curse. And they were, all of them, two hundred, who descended in the days of Jared onto the peak of Mount Hermon.

Since the “greatest and holy god” on Warren’s stela is linked to the Watchers, it almost certainly refers to the Canaanite creator-god, El, who was believed to make his home on Mount Hermon, which was essentially “the Canaanite Olympus.” The summit of Hermon has been scooped out like a giant bowl, probably to receive a drink offering, something scholars call “the rite of hydrophory.” This ritual was called yarid in Hebrew, based on a root that means “to come down,” which it shares with the names Jared and Jordan (since the river “comes down” into the Galilee from Hermon). This suggests that the Watchers did not descend to Mount Hermon in the “days of Jared,” but rather in the days when yarid was performed on the summit of Hermon.

The point is this: Warren noted that those bringing the yarid had to approach the summit in a specific way:

On the southern peak there is a hole scooped out of the apex, the foot is surrounded by an oval of hewn stones, and at its southern end is a Sacellum, or temple, nearly destroyed: the latter appears to be of more recent date than the stone oval…

The oval is formed of well-dressed stones, from two to eight feet in length, two and a-half feet in breadth, and two feet thick; they are laid in a curved line on the uneven ground, their breadth being their height, and their ends touching each other.

In other words, to reach the summit of Mount Hermon in ancient times, one had to circumambulate the peak, walking in a spiral with the summit always on the left—counterclockwise. 

That leads to this question: Is there a link between religious rituals on Mount Hermon and the oldest akiti rites for the moon-god at Ur?

Admittedly, this is speculation, another bit of circumstantial evidence as we build our case. There is smoke, but not exactly a smoking gun.

One more note, a hint at the importance of the moon-god in the ancient Near East: During the time of the patriarchs, which scholars call the Old Babylonian period, the moon-god Nanna/Sîn was, at least for some, the most important god in the pantheon.

Even though Enlil was still king of the gods at that point in history, a text fragment from Nippur written during the Old Babylonian period, only translated in 2011, explicitly describes the moon-god as ruling over the Mesopotamian divine assembly, which was called the Ubšu-ukkina. Anu and Enlil, whom we’d expect to be the presiding deities, are described as advisors, along with the other “gods who decree.”

“You, who stand before him to sit in the Ubšu-ukkina

An, Enlil, Enki, Ninhursag, Utu, and Inanna sat in assembly for the king

They advised him there.

Nanna sets the holy…in order.…”

The great gods were paying attention to….

Suen [Sîn], his assembly’s decision, his speech of goodness, abundance.…

for Suen, they implement abundance in heaven and earth properly(?)

The king suitable for holy heaven, the barge in the midst of heaven.

“The barge in the midst of heaven” is the crescent moon. Besides resembling the horns of a bull, it also looks like a reed boat sailing across the night sky. Even though bits of the tablet are missing, it’s clear that Sîn was “the king” in the Mesopotamian divine assembly, with the other “great gods” in subordinate roles. Marduk isn’t even mentioned. This supports the theory that the Amorite founders of Babylon, even though they hailed from the city of Marduk, considered the moon-god, Sîn, their patron.

It’s also important to remember that to Mesopotamians, the Ubšu-ukkina was a physical place. The assembly of the gods took place in Nippur, inside Enlil’s temple complex the E-kur, or “House of the Mountain.”

That’s important, too. From Eden to Armageddon, this long spiritual war is all about the mountain where the gods assemble. The prize is Yahweh’s har môʿēd (“mount of assembly”)—Zion.

Next up: The city of the moon-god.

Live On Mission Today!

“Live on Mission Today” a book by Dr Jerry Ingalls

The following is my short review of this much needed book for men!

I have recently gone through this very well done book by Dr Jerry Ingalls. Live on Mission really kept my attention. It is not a read through book, it is a daily devotion for men. I must say for men who truly want to be all they should be for their family and wife!

The way Dr Ingalls writes is very compelling, between his military experience and his athletic success you are drawn in by the many true stories of his life. Being a part of the 82nd Airborne paratroopers, a graduate of West Pointe and a military National Hammer Thrower is just a sample of who this author is.

Live on Mission Today takes us on a daily journey through the book of Proverbs. Each day is a new chapter and a new adventure. Each day we learn life principles that God expects every man to live by. This book identifies and explains Proverbs in such a way that makes you want to get to the next day faster. You want to read ahead because it is so compelling and full of God’s wisdom in an easy to understand way.

“Live on Mission Today” should be considered by every Pastor for his men to use, perhaps even use as a teaching tool or men’s group study. Dr Ingalls is also Pastor of First Baptist Church New Castle Indiana and I can rest assured you his men have been using this.

I strongly recommend this book!

The Rise of Ancient Aliens: From Lovecraft to Von Däniken

In the early 1970s, Kenneth Grant, personal secretary to Aleister Crowley twenty-five years earlier, broke with the American branch of Crowley’s Ordo Templi Orientis and formed his own Thelemic organization, the Typhonian O.T.O. The “Sirius/Set current” that Grant identified in the ‘50s referred to the Egyptian deity Set, god of the desert, storms, foreigners, violence, and chaos.

To grasp the significance of Grant’s innovation to Crowley’s religion, a brief history of Set is in order.

Set—sometimes called Seth, Sheth, or Sutekh—is one of the oldest gods in the Egyptian pantheon. There is evidence he was worshiped long before the pharaohs, in the pre-dynastic era called Naqada I, which may date as far back as 3750 BC. To put that into context, the Tower of Babel incident probably occurred toward the end of the Uruk period around 3100 BC. Writing wasn’t invented in Sumer until about 3000 BC, around the time of the first pharaoh, Narmer.

Set was originally one of the good gods. He protected Ra’s solar boat, defending it from the evil chaos serpent Apep (or Apophis), who tried to eat the sun every night as it dropped below the horizon. During the Second Intermediate Period, roughly 1750 BC to 1550 BC, Semitic people called the Hyksos, who were probably Amorites, equated Set with Baʿal, the Canaanite storm-god, and Baʿal-Set was the patron deity of Avaris, the Hyksos capital.

The worship of Baʿal-Set continued even after the Hyksos were driven out of Egypt. Two centuries after Moses led the Israelites to Canaan, three hundred years after the Hyksos expulsion, Ramesses the Great erected a memorial called the Year 400 Stela to honor the 400th year of Set’s arrival in Egypt. In fact, Ramesses’ father was named Seti, which literally means “man of Set.”

Set didn’t acquire his evil reputation until the Third Intermediate Period, during which Egypt was overrun by successive waves of foreign invaders. After being conquered by Nubia, Assyria, and Persia, one after another between 728 BC and 525 BC, the god of foreigners wasn’t welcome around the pyramids anymore. No longer was Set the mighty god who kept Apophis from eating the sun; now, Set was the evil god who murdered his brother, Osiris, and the sworn enemy of Osiris’ son, Horus.

By the time of Persia’s rise, Greek civilization was beginning to flower, and the Greeks identified Set with Typhon, the terrifying, powerful serpentine god of chaos. That’s the link between Set and Typhon. And this is the entity Kenneth Grant believed was the true source of power in Thelemic magick.

That’s why the “Sirius/Set current” led to the Typhonian O.T.O, and that’s the destructive, chaos-monster aspect of Set-Typhon we need to keep in view when analyzing the magickal system Grant created by filtering Crowley through the horror fiction of H. P. Lovecraft.

Grant’s anxiety, as expressed in Nightside of Eden and in his other works, is that the Earth is being infiltrated by a race of extraterrestrial beings who will cause tremendous changes to take place in our world. This statement is not to be taken quite as literally as it appears, for the “Earth” can be taken to mean our current level of conscious awareness, and extraterrestrial would mean simply “not of this current level of conscious awareness.” But the potential for danger is there, and Grant’s work— like Lovecraft’s—is an attempt to warn us of the impending (potentially dramatic) alterations in our physical, mental and emotional states due to powerful influences from “outside.”

Lovecraft died in 1937, but his work found a new audience in the 1970s. His stories were mined as source material by Hollywood. Then in 1977, a hardback edition of the Necronomicon, which Lovecraft invented as a plot device for his horror fiction, suddenly appeared (published in a limited run of 666 copies!), edited by a mysterious figure known only as “Simon,” purportedly a bishop in the Eastern Orthodox Church. According to Simon, two monks from his denomination had stolen a copy of the actual Necronomicon in one of the most daring and dangerous book thefts in history.

A mass market paperback edition followed a few years later. That version has reportedly sold more than a million copies over the last four decades. Kenneth Grant, who believed that Crowley and Lovecraft had been inspired or guided by the same supernatural source, validated the text, going so far as to offer explanations for apparent discrepancies between Crowley and the Necronomicon.

Crowley admitted to not having heard correctly certain words during the transmission of Liber L, and it is probable that he misheard the word Tutulu. It may have been Kutulu, in which case it would be identical phonetically, but not qabalistically, with Cthulhu. The [Simon] Necronomicon (Introduction, p. xix) suggests a relationship between Kutulu and Cutha…

Simon’s Necronomicon was just one of several grimoires (books of magic spells) published in the 1970s that claimed to be the nefarious book. The others were either obvious fakes published for entertainment purposes, or hoaxes that their authors admitted to soon after publication. Simon, on the other hand, appeared to be serious. But people involved with producing the “Simonomicon” have since admitted to making it up, and the central figure behind the book’s publication was Peter Levenda—author of The Dark Lord, the book documenting the highly improbable “coincidences” connecting Aleister Crowley and H. P. Lovecraft.

The text itself was Levenda’s creation, a synthesis of Sumerian and later Babylonian myths and texts peppered with names of entities from H. P. Lovecraft’s notorious and enormously popular Cthulhu stories. Levenda seems to have drawn heavily on the works of Samuel Noah Kramer for the Sumerian, and almost certainly spent a great deal of time at the University of Pennsylvania library researching the thing. Structurally, the text was modeled on the wiccan Book of Shadows and the Goetia, a grimoire of doubtful authenticity itself dating from the late Middle Ages.

“Simon” was also Levenda’s creation. He cultivated an elusive, secretive persona, giving him a fantastic and blatantly implausible line of [BS] to cover the book’s origins. He had no telephone. He always wore business suits, in stark contrast to the flamboyant Renaissance fair, proto-goth costuming that dominated the scene.

In The Dark Lord, Levenda not only analyzed Kenneth Grant’s magickal system and documented synchronicities between Crowley and Lovecraft, he validated the supernatural authenticity of the fake Necronomicon that he created!

But make no mistake—this doesn’t mean the Necronomicon is fake in the supernatural sense.

[W]e can conclude that the hoax Necronomicons—at least the Hay-Wilson-Langford-Turner and Simon versions—falsely claim to be the work of the mad Arab Abdul Alhazred; but in so falsely attributing themselves, they signal their genuine inclusion in the grimoire genre. The misattribution is the mark of their genre, and their very falsity is the condition of their genuineness. The hoax Necronomicons are every bit as “authentic” as the Lesser Key of Solomon or the Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses.

In other words, while the published editions of the Necronomicon were obviously invented long after the deaths of H. P. Lovecraft and Aleister Crowley, they are still genuine tools for practicing sorcery. And, as Grant and Levenda suggest, they share a common origin in the spirit realm.

Simon’s Necronomicon arrived on the wave of a renewed interest in the occult that washed over the Western world in the 1960s and ‘70s. Interestingly, it was a French journal of science fiction that helped spark the revival, and it did so by publishing the works of H. P. Lovecraft for a new audience.

Planète was launched in the early ‘60s by Louis Pauwles and Jacques Bergier, and their magazine brought a new legion of admirers to the “bent genius.” More significantly for our study here, however, was the book Pauwles and Bergier co-authored in 1960, Les matins des magiciens (Morning of the Magicians), which was translated into English in 1963 as Dawn of Magic.

From Lovecraft, Bergier and Pauwles borrowed the one thought that would be of more importance than any other in their book. As we have seen, Morning of the Magicians speculates that extraterrestrial beings may be responsible for the rise of the human race and the development of its culture, a theme Lovecraft invented (emphasis mine).

The success of Pauwles and Bergier inspired others to run with the concepts they’d developed from the writings of Lovecraft. The most successful of these, without question, is Erich von Däniken’s Chariots of the Gods?

You can say one thing at least for von Däniken: He wasn’t shy about challenging accepted history.

I claim that our forefathers received visits from the universe in the remote past, even though I do not yet know who these extraterrestrial intelligences were or from which planet they came. I nevertheless proclaim that these “strangers” annihilated part of mankind existing at the time and produced a new, perhaps the first, homo sapiens.

The book had the good fortune of being published in 1968, the same year Stanley Kubrick’s epic adaptation of Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey hit theaters. The film, based on the idea that advanced alien technology had guided human evolution, was the top-grossing film of the year, and was named the “greatest sci-fi film of all time” in 2002 by the Online Film Critics Society. By 1971, when Chariots of the Gods? finally appeared in American bookstores, NASA had put men on the moon three times and the public was fully primed for what von Däniken was selling.

It’s hard to overstate the impact Chariots of the Gods has had on the UFO research community and the worldviews of millions of people around the world over the last half century. In 1973, Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling built a documentary around Chariots titled In Search of Ancient Astronauts, which featured astronomer Carl Sagan and Wernher von Braun, architect of the Saturn V rocket. The following year, a feature film with the same title as the book was released to theaters. By the turn of the 21st century, von Däniken had sold more than 60 million copies of his twenty-six books, all promoting the idea that our creators came from the stars.

To this day, von Däniken’s book is the best-selling English language archaeology book of all time. Is it any wonder that more Americans believe that we’ve been visited by ET than in God as He’s revealed Himself in the Bible?

The Monster and the Great Beast 666

 

This article is weird. Not by design; it just happens to deal with a topic most churches ignore—the UFO phenomenon. And it connects dots between “ancient aliens,” the 20th century’s most notorious practitioner of the occult (he called himself the Great Beast 666), and an impoverished author of gothic horror fiction.

We’ll start with the latter character first.

H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is one of the giants of 20th century literature, although he wasn’t recognized as such until after his death. And because he wrote scary stories, he wasn’t the kind of writer who got invites to fancy parties. Lovecraft and his friends, most of whom he knew through volumes of letters—by one estimate, 100,000 of them—that some believe were more influential than his published work, wrote to entertain, usually by crafting terrifying tales and conjuring monstrous images of overpowering, inhuman evil.

As a child, Lovecraft was tormented by night terrors. Beginning at age six, young Howard was visited by what he called night-gaunts—faceless humanoids with black, rubbery skin, bat-like wings, and barbed tails, who carried off their victims to Dreamland. The nocturnal visitors were so terrifying that Howard remembered trying desperately to stay awake every night during this period of his life. It’s believed that these dreams, which haunted him for more than a year, had a powerful influence on his fiction.

From a Christian perspective, it’s a shame that Lovecraft’s mother, who raised Howard with his aunts after his father was committed to a psychiatric hospital when Howard was only three, failed to recognize the phenomenon for what it probably was—demonic oppression of her only child. But by the late 19th century, the technologically advanced West didn’t have room in its scientific worldview for such things. In fact, Lovecraft claimed to be a staunch atheist throughout his life.

Ironically, despite his disbelief, the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft has been adapted and adopted by occultists around the world after his death. The man who died a pauper not only found an audience over the last eighty years, he inspired an army of authors who have preserved and expanded the nightmarish universe that sprang from Lovecraft’s tortured dreams.

Although Lovecraft claimed he didn’t believe in the supernatural, he was more than happy to use the spirit realm as grist for his writing mill. Lovecraft apparently saw potential in the doctrines of Blavatsky for stories that would sell. They did, but mostly after his death. During his lifetime, Lovecraft was barely known outside the readership of pulp magazines, the type of publication called a “penny dreadful” a couple generations earlier in England.

While Lovecraft may have rejected the idea of a lost continent or two as the now-forgotten motherland of humanity, the concept served him well as an author. The notion that certain humans gifted (or cursed) with the ability to see beyond the veil were communicating with intelligences vastly greater than our own also made for compelling horror. Lovecraft viewed the universe as a cold, unfeeling place; so, in his fiction those intelligences, unlike the kindly ascended masters of Blavatsky’s world, had no use for humanity — except, perhaps, as slaves or sacrifices. The horror of discovering oneself at the mercy of immense, ancient beings incapable of mercy is a common theme in Lovecraft’s tales, and he gave those ideas flesh and bone with carefully crafted prose that infused them with a sense of dread not easily or often distilled onto the printed page.

It’s fair to say that Lovecraft’s style of gothic horror has had a powerful influence on horror fiction and film over the last 75 years. Stephen King, Roger Corman, John Carpenter and Ridley Scott, among others, drew on Lovecraft’s style if not his Cthulhu mythos directly. Maybe that’s not the kind of legacy left by Ernest Hemingway or F. Scott Fitzgerald, but compare the number of people who have seen The Thing, Alien, or any movie based on a King novel (The Shining, The Stand, It, etc.) to the number of people who’ve read Hemingway or Fitzgerald. (Not claimed to read them; but actually sat down and read them.) Even though H. P. Lovecraft was basically unknown during his lifetime, he’s had far greater influence on pop culture than the literary greats who were his contemporaries.

And, as we’ll see, the influence of the staunch atheist Lovecraft has bled over into the metaphysical realm. Maybe it’s fitting that the principalities and powers aligned against their Creator would find an atheist a most useful tool.

While Lovecraft was beginning his career as a writer, across the ocean another man fascinated with arcana and the influence of old gods on our world was hearing voices from beyond. Edward Alexander “Aleister” Crowley, born 1875 in Warwickshire, England, traveled to Cairo in 1904 with his new bride, Rose Kelly. While there, Crowley, who’d been a member of the Order of the Golden Dawn about five years earlier, set up a temple room in their apartment and began performing rituals to invoke Egyptian deities. Eventually, something calling itself Aiwass, the messenger of Hoor-Paar-Kraat (known to the Greeks as an aspect of Horus, Harpocrates, the god of silence), answered. Over a period of three days, April 8-10, 1904, Crowley transcribed what he heard from the voice of Aiwass.

The Voice of Aiwass came apparently from over my left shoulder, from the furthest corner of the room. […]

I had a strong impression that the speaker was actually in the corner where he seemed to be, in a body of “fine matter,” transparent as a veil of gauze, or a cloud of incense-smoke. He seemed to be a tall, dark man in his thirties, well-knit, active and strong, with the face of a savage king, and eyes veiled lest their gaze should destroy what they saw. The dress was not Arab; it suggested Assyria or Persia, but very vaguely. I took little note of it, for to me at that time Aiwass and an “angel” such as I had often seen in visions, a being purely astral.

I now incline to believe that Aiwass is not only the God or Demon or Devil once held holy in Sumer, and mine own Guardian Angel, but also a man as I am, insofar as He uses a human body to make His magical link with Mankind, whom He loves…

That eventually became the central text for Crowley’s new religion, Thelema, which in turn is the basis for Ordo Templi Orientis. The O.T.O. is a secret society similar to Freemasonry that, like Blavatsky’s Theosophical Society and the Freemasons, believes in universal brotherhood. The primary difference between Thelema and Theosophy is in the nature of the entities sending messages from beyond. Blavatsky claimed to hear from ascended masters who were shepherding humanity’s evolution; Crowley claimed to be guided by gods from the Egyptian pantheon: Nuit, Hadit, and Ra-Hoor-Khuit.

The irony of all this is that Lovecraft, who denied the existence of Crowley’s gods and Blavatsky’s mahatmas, may have drawn his inspiration from the same well.

A key thread woven through the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft was a fictional grimoire, or book of witchcraft, called the Necronomicon. The book, according to the Lovecraft canon, was written in the 8th century A.D. by the “Mad Arab,” Abdul Alhazred (Lovecraft’s childhood nickname because of his love for the book 1001 Arabian Nights). Perhaps significantly, inspiration for the invented grimoire came to Lovecraft in a dream, and through his many letters to friends and colleagues, he encouraged others to incorporate the mysterious tome in their works. Over time, references to the Necronomicon by a growing number of authors creating Lovecraftian fiction led to a growing belief that the book was, in fact, real. Significantly, one of those who believed in the book was occultist Kenneth Grant.

Grant was an English ceremonial magician and an acolyte of Crowley, serving as Crowley’s personal secretary toward the end of his life. After Crowley’s death, Grant was named head of the O.T.O. in Britain by Crowley’s successor, Karl Germer. However, Grant’s promotion of an extraterrestrial “Sirius/Set current” in Crowley’s work infuriated Germer, who expelled Grant from the organization for heresy.

Lovecraft’s fiction inspired some of Grant’s innovations to Thelema. Grant said Lovecraft “snatched from nightmare-space his lurid dream-readings of the Necronomicon.” Instead of attributing the Necronomicon to Lovecraft’s imagination, Grant took it as evidence of the tome’s existence as an astral book. Furthermore, Grant believed others, including Crowley and Blavatsky, had “glimpsed the Akashic Necronomicon”—a reference to the Akashic records, a Theosophist concept describing a collection of all human thoughts, deeds, and emotions that exists on another plane of reality accessed only through proper spiritual discipline.

Kenneth Grant was perhaps the first to notice the strange parallels between the writings of H. P. Lovecraft and Aleister Crowley. In The Dark Lord, an extensive analysis of Grant’s magickal system and Lovecraft’s influence on it, researcher and author Peter Levenda documented a number of these similarities.

In 1907, Crowley was writing some of the works that became seminal to the doctrines of Thelema, known as The Holy Books. These include Liber Liberi vel Lapidus Lazuli, Liber Cordis Cincti Serpente, and other works written between October 30 and November 1 of that year, and Liber Arcanorum and Liber Carcerorum, written between December 5th and 14th that same year. Lovecraft would have had no knowledge of this, as he was only a seventeen-year old recluse living at home on Angell Street in Providence, Rhode Island, dreaming of the stars.

Instead, he later would write of an orgiastic ritual taking place that year in the bayous outside New Orleans, Louisiana, and on the very same day that Crowley was writing the books enumerated above. The story Lovecraft wrote is entitled “The Call of Cthulhu” and is arguably his most famous work. He wrote the story in 1926, in late August or early September, but placed the action in New Orleans in 1907 and later in Providence in 1925.

How is this relevant? Lovecraft’s placement of the orgiastic ritual in honor of the high priest of the Great Old Ones, Cthulhu, and the discovery of a statue of Cthulhu by the New Orleans police on Halloween, 1907 coincides precisely with Crowley’s fevered writing of his own gothic prose. In the Liber Liberi vel Lapidus Lazuli, for instance, Crowley writes the word “Tutulu” for the first time. He claims not to know what this word means, or where it came from. As the name of Lovecraft’s fictional alien god can be pronounced “Kutulu,” it seems more than coincidental, as Kenneth Grant himself noted. 

However, this is only the tip of an eldritch iceberg. In Crowley’s Liber Cordis Cincti Serpente—or “The Book of the Heart Girt with a Serpent”— there are numerous references to the “Abyss of the Great Deep,” to Typhon, Python, and the appearance of an “old gnarled fish” with tentacles … all descriptions that match Lovecraft’s imagined Cthulhu perfectly. Not approximately, but perfectly. Crowley’s volume was written on November 1, 1907. The ritual for Cthulhu in New Orleans took place on the same day, month and year.

Now, this could be nothing more than a strange coincidence—if you’re a coincidence theorist. Levenda, an excellent researcher and gifted author, and Kenneth Grant before him, concluded otherwise.

It may actually be more logical to suggest, as an explanation for some of these coincidences, that darker forces were at work. In fact, it is possible that the same forces of which Lovecraft himself writes—the telepathic communication between followers of Cthulhu and the Great Old Ones—was what prompted him to write these fictional accounts of real events. Either Lovecraft was in some kind of telepathic communication with Crowley, or both men were in telepathic communication with … Something Else.

As Christians, we should at least consider the supernatural explanation. If the apostle Paul knew his theology, and he did, then we must consider the influence of principalities and powers on our natural world. And that’s the most likely source of the odd, highly improbable Crowley-Cthulhu connection.

And, as we’ll see in the months ahead, this improbable, long-distance link between the occultist Aleister Crowley and horror fiction author H. P. Lovecraft has metastasized over the last century what passes for official doctrine of the Church of Ancient Aliens.

Lord of the Gates of Hell

Over the centuries, tomb robbers have removed most of the useful evidence from the dolmens of the Jordan River valley. The few bones left behind in burial chambers don’t show any evidence of giantism, or at least I haven’t found any papers reporting it. Most of the dolmens are oriented north-south, although about 10 percent appear to be oriented east-west, perhaps to face the rising sun.
Is this significant? While it’s interesting to note that the Pole Star was Thuban (Alpha Draconis) in the constellation Draco, the Dragon, when the dolmens were built, we don’t know if that was relevant. Despite their ability to lift stupendously heavy blocks of stone, the dolmen-builders weren’t considerate enough to leave behind any written evidence.
That makes a recent discovery in the Golan all the more intriguing and frustrating at the same time. In 2012, archaeologists examined a massive, multichambered dolmen in the Shamir Dolmen Field on the western foothills of the Golan Heights, a site with over four hundred dolmens. What was truly remarkable about this particular dolmen was the discovery of rock art on the underside of the capstone, a basalt monster weighing about fifty tons. (For comparison, that’s about twice as heavy as a fully-loaded, eighteen-wheel, tractor-trailer in the United States.) That’s the first time art has been found inside any of the thousands of dolmens in the region, possibly the first written or artistic record that might be connected directly to the biblical Rephaim.
The dolmen itself is surrounded by a tumulus, a burial mound of about four hundred tons of stone. Think about that! Four thousand years ago, maybe a century or so before Abraham arrived in Canaan, a government on the Golan Heights was powerful enough to organize the manpower and logistics (food, water, etc.) to move and assemble some eight hundred thousand pounds of stone into a multichambered tomb for—who? The king and his family? Archaeologists recovered enough bones and teeth to identify “an 8–10 year-old child, a young adult and a 35–45 year-old adult.”
Were they—dare we speculate—of the dynasty that produced Og, the enemy of Israel, about six hundred years later? Well, probably not. Most dynasties don’t last that long. But it’s interesting to wonder.
The engravings were fourteen figures comprised of a vertical line and a downturned arc. What did the symbol mean? No idea. Nothing like it has been found anywhere in the Levant or anywhere else. It might be a representation of the human soul taking flight, but because the artist didn’t leave a note, we’re guessing. Or—and again, we’re speculating—this could be an ancient symbol with occult meaning even today. Three-dimensional scanning of the images show that at least some of them look very much like the Greek character psi, which is a trident (and the logo for Indiana University), the three-pronged spear traditionally carried by the Greco-Roman god of the sea, Poseidon/Neptune. Today it’s used, among other things, as a symbol for parapsychology, especially research into extrasensory perception, and in a mathematical formula that claims to guide occultists in how to perform rituals in chaos magick.
What did that symbol mean in the twentieth century BC? We have no way to know. It might have been doodling by a bored Bronze Age stonemason.
The takeaway is this: For at least a thousand years, people living in lands the Bible identifies as the home of Rephaim tribes built burial tombs with massive slabs of limestone and basalt. And those huge burial tombs inspired place names linked to the dolmen-builders (Iye-Abarim, “ruins of the Travelers”) and to the restless dead (Oboth, “Spirits of the Dead”).
Get this: Even the place where Moses died was called the Mountain of the Travelers.
Go up this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, opposite Jericho, and view the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the people of Israel for a possession. And die on the mountain which you go up, and be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died in Mount Hor and was gathered to his people.…
So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord, and he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-peor; but no one knows the place of his burial to this day. (Deuteronomy 32:49–50, 34:5–6, emphasis added)
Here’s a thought: Moses was buried in the valley of the Travelers, a place where the Rephaim spirits were believed to cross over to the land of the living. Is that why Satan, lord of the dead, thought he had a claim to Moses’ body after his death?
Another question comes to mind: Were all those dolmens up and down the Jordan Valley thought to be portals to the underworld?
Here’s another connection between this valley and the realm of the dead: Remember the prophecy of Balaam? After the king of Moab tried to buy a curse from the pagan prophet, Israel began drifting away from Yahweh again.
While Israel lived in Shittim, the people began to whore with the daughters of Moab. These invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods. So Israel yoked himself to Baal of Peor. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel. (Numbers 25:1–3)
Who was Baal of Peor? Remember, baal in Hebrew simply means “lord.” So, the Lord of Peor was a local deity linked to a mountain near Shittim in Moab, northeast of the Dead Sea. The clue to the character of Baal-Peor is in the name.
Peor is related to the Hebrew root p’r, which means “cleft” or “gap,” or “open wide.” In this context, that definition is consistent with Isaiah’s description of the entrance to the netherworld:
Therefore Sheol has enlarged its appetite and opened [pa’ar] its mouth beyond measure. (Isaiah 5:14)
Since we’re looking at a place associated with the dead, it’s worth noting that the Canaanite god of death, Mot, was described in the Ugaritic texts as a ravenous entity with a truly monstrous mouth:
He extends a lip to the earth,
a lip to the heavens,
he extends a tongue to the stars.
That’s what’s in view here: Baal-Peor was apparently the lord of the entrance to the underworld—or, at the risk of being sensationalistic, “Lord of the Gates of Hell.”
Yes, the Canaanites believed the entrance to the underworld was at Bashan. But both Milcom (whom the Hebrews called Molech) and Chemosh, the national gods of Ammon and Moab, the nations that controlled most of the land east of the Jordan from the Dead Sea to Mount Hermon, demanded child sacrifice. Veneration of the dead and appeasing the gods of the dead through human sacrifice appear to have been the norm in this region east of the Dead Sea.
This was also the location of Sodom and Gomorrah. This is an awful lot of evil concentrated in a small area.
Anyway, perhaps because of the association with death and the dead, there was, shall we say, a fertility aspect to the cult of Baal-Peor.
And behold, one of the people of Israel came and brought a Midianite woman to his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the people of Israel, while they were weeping in the entrance of the tent of meeting. When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose and left the congregation and took a spear in his hand and went after the man of Israel into the chamber and pierced both of them, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly. (Numbers 25:6–8)
How to put this delicately? There are only a couple of physical positions in which Phinehas could have speared both the Israelite man and Midianite woman with one thrust. If you’re an adult, I don’t need to draw you a picture. Emphasizing the point, the Hebrew word translated “belly,” qevah, can refer to a woman’s womb. In other words, the sin here wasn’t that an Israelite man brought a foreign woman home for dinner, it’s that the couple performed a lewd ritual act in full view of Moses and the assembly of Israel!
Well, it’s no wonder the men of Israel were tempted to follow Baal-Peor. Roughly 60 percent of the Christian pastors in America today struggle with addiction to pornography. Just imagine the temptation of being surrounded by people whose god decreed that extramarital sex was a form of worship. We don’t mean to be flippant, but it might take the real threat of death to keep men away from the temples! Indeed, twenty-four thousand people died in the plague that God sent as punishment for that apostasy because it wasn’t just the one couple involved.
And there was even more to it than that. Not surprisingly, given the Amorite/Rephaim culture in that time and place, one of the pagan rites the Israelites adopted during their time in Moab was veneration of the dead:
Then they yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor,
and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;
they provoked the Lord to anger with their deeds,
and a plague broke out among them. (Psalm 106:28–29)
The psalmist remembered the sacrifices to the dead, which is a basic description of the Amorite kispum ritual. The sexual sin of the young couple (and Phinehas’ violent reaction) is shocking to us today, but apparently the psalmist didn’t find it worth mentioning. The real sin that provoked God’s anger was venerating the dead, one of the “abominable practices” of the pagan nations He’d promised to drive out of the land before them.
That brings us back to the point: We’ve identified the area that Ezekiel called the Valley of the Travelers as the east side of the Jordan Rift Valley, specifically ancient Moab east and just northeast of the Dead Sea. And by now you’re asking, “Why are we spending all of this time identifying the area and unraveling the meaning behind the word Travelers?”
Here’s why: It connects the Rephaim to Ezekiel’s prophecy of Gog and Magog.
How? Stay tuned.

“The Covid Beast” Part IV

The following article is by one of our contributor teams. It is very controversial and we respectfully ask that when you read this understand that this ministry tries to provide thought engaging subjects that are simply for you to review and decide for yourself. Our team has many backgrounds and educational achievements and our prayer is that you will see this as simply one possibility.

By Dr Kevan Kruse and Dr Dennis O’Hara

Trans-humanism In the Bible
In our last article, we talked about the Covid vaccines and how they are, at minimum, experimental, and at maximum, the precursor to the Mark of the Beast (MOB) because we are beginning to change our genetic material from what God wrote to something that man wrote. They are changing our creator. But if you are still skeptical, then ask yourself this question. If they have isolated this virus and have an accurate test for Covid, then why are 80% of the people who test positive for Covid asymptomatic?

They also developed a natural “herd” immunity to Covid, which will last for a significant period. So, why are they pushing this vaccine so hard? Now consider that up to 80% of the people who take the vaccine become symptomatic. It becomes obvious, just as 55,000 doctors said in the “Great Barrington Declaration,” that head-to-head natural immunity (God’s way) is way better than man-made immunity.

Given these statistics, why would anyone take this vaccine if they have no risk of dying from Covid? Why are people around the globe losing their jobs and being bullied into taking this vaccine? Especially when here in the USA the “CDC Reports 1,637 Deaths Following COVID-19 Vaccinations.” In Europe, many countries have pulled the AstraZeneca vaccine due to complications. None of this makes sense. What is the real agenda?

An Obsession with “Super”
In this current article, we want to explore some of the other temptations to alter our DNA. But the biggest question that we will address is whether the Bible has warned us of this coming genetic revolution. More specifically, did the Bible predict that something like trans-humanism would come along to offer something that Satan has been promising mankind since the Garden of Eden?

It is becoming more obvious that our society is becoming obsessed with “superheroes” or people with superpowers. If we add in aliens, magic, and sorcery, we have the plot of virtually every new movie. Yet, with all of this talk of superheroes, I want to remind us that Jesus is still the greatest superhero of all. Why? Because Jesus had to be born a man, live like a man, and die like a man to redeem all of mankind. Someone who wasn’t a man, with different DNA than ours, could not have achieved this superhuman feat because he wasn’t fully human.

This is the power of the Gospel. Through Christ, we will get a new super body, a new super destiny, a new super identity, a new super home, and new superpowers to boot. This is why the desire for something more is buried so deep within our hearts because this is what we were created to be. Satan knows how tempting this is for us. Consequently, the motivation to take the MOB may be more than just fear. It could simply be linked to our desire to be like God. Isn’t that why we are so fascinated with both superheroes and the supernatural world? Wasn’t this temptation to be super part of Satan’s first spiel? Maybe it wasn’t all fluff. Maybe the MOB will in some way full fill part of Satan’s promise to make us a little more “god-like.”

Altered Perception
What are some of the consequences of changing our DNA? Unfortunately, the consequences could be endless. I have heard Dr. Tom Horn talk many times about how when we transfer quail DNA in chickens, they move their heads like quail and sound like quail. These are complex memories and patterns of behavior that are instantaneously changed. Applying this to human beings could turn them into something that is not fully human. Even Francis Fukuyama, the Nobel peace prize-winning scientist that wrote “What is the world’s most dangerous idea?” did not stop there. He went on to write “Our Posthuman Future: Consequences of the Biotechnology Revolution.”

This is where looking at the super-soldier program may be our best illustration of what is possible. What exactly are they looking to change about humans in this program? Some of the scary truth comes out in the article, “DARPA Continues Human Experiments to Create Military Super Soldiers.” In the article, they specifically say they are trying to: “enhance a soldier’s ability to kill without care or remorse, shows no fear, can fight battle after battle without fatigue, and generally behave more like a machine than a man.”

Unfortunately, they have been experimenting on human beings in this way for more than 20 years. But who would call the soldier they are describing human? More importantly, who would want to sign up for that? Honestly, that description could easily be a description of your average demon. If you are still struggling with understanding how unlocking and sequencing DNA is changing mankind, then here are some movies to watch that might help to get a handle on just what is possible.

“Human Nature” & “Unnatural Selection” on Netflix – Detailing CRISPR technology
Trans-humanism?
Originally trans-humanism was changing our DNA and combining or splicing it with other species, but with the invention of CRISPR technology, it is possible to sequence our own designer DNA instead of using pre-existing DNA strands and splicing them together. What people fail to understand is that the fundamental tenet of transhumanism is to re-make mankind into a new image, and one of our own (or someone else’s) choosing. We have the technology to combine plants, animals, and humans to make human-hybrids that are stronger, smarter, less violent, and live much longer. This is the supposedly positive side of altering our DNA, but the super-soldiers sound more like demons more than men.

Nonetheless, if the promises of trans-humanism come true, which is to make a better man than God did, then how might this also be another kind of “cause” that motivates the whole world to take this marker? Who doesn’t want to look better, live longer, and have superpowers? Unfortunately, no matter what your narrative is, changing our DNA would be the extinction of the human race, at least the one that God created. God simply can not say that He created the kinds of changes that are being proposed. This is the point where we would stop being what God created and become something else.

This is why trans-humanism is the world’s most dangerous idea because it is the end of the human race and the beginning of another race. After all, from their perspective, we are just evolving. The problem is we are starting to evolve into beings who think they are gods. This is also why I believe trans-humanism is connected to the MOB. Certainly, the MOB would have to be considered the single most dangerous threat to salvation that mankind will ever see. Consequently, genetic manipulation of the human genome is the game-changer that the church is completely unaware of. But where their plan converges on our Bibles is that they need access to our bodies to execute their plan.

As we speak most of us are even now focused on some kind of outrageous assault on our freedoms because there are too many “causes” destroying our country to even count. Wouldn’t now be the perfect time to slip the world’s most dangerous agenda into play. Certainly, it could be argued that taking a vaccine is one of the main narratives of the COVID-19 deception. This elimination of the original genome that God wrote Himself could easily be the reason why God tells us that He has to return otherwise no one would be left. (Matthew 24:22)

Maybe, God is talking about His children. The ones who have His DNA, and the ones who bear His image. But none of this is possible unless they get access to our bodies. Even now they are getting us comfortable with their template and things like DNA and RNA. But the question is: did the Bible give us some huge hints that there might be a genetic component to the MOB?

For now, understand that trans-humanism is asking a question that has been raging in our minds since the temptation in the Garden of Eden. Do we want to be God’s children, or do we want to be something of our own making? Do we want to be a god? Now we must look deep within ourselves and decide what we wish to become. This has always been Satan’s agenda, to have a seed that looks like him.

While technology is getting better every day, there are still some glitches in the plan. They are not ready to roll out the MOB, but this cannot be a coincidence that these are the first vaccines to have mRNA. The mistake would be to think that these vaccines aren’t going to do anything, even though they won’t cause us to lose our salvation. Yet the fact remains that genetic codes are being sent into our bodies to re-write our God-given RNA, which in turn will make our bodies begin to do unnatural things. They are saying that these codes are only temporary, but that was not what happened when they tried this same technology on mice. That was not what Tal Zaks, chief medical officer of Moderna said was happening. So, my advice is don’t change anything God did.

Bombshell: Moderna Chief Medical Officer Admits mRNA Alters DNA

The Precursor to MOB
The mistake would be to think that just because the first rocket didn’t put a man on the moon, that it didn’t go anywhere. Likewise, it would be a mistake to think that changing our RNA is harmless. More importantly, we could be looking for a treatment plan instead of a “one and done” deal. Rolling things out in stages would certainly avoid the obvious objections to the gross undeniable change that the MOB seems to cause.

A better way to roll this out simply means turning up the heat slowly. In other words, small genetic changes could produce smaller behavioral or spiritual changes that somehow change our perceptions and/or our ability to connect with God. In other words, our conscience may be the most important tool we have to remain in a good relationship with God. It is also true, that changing what we can see could also change us. What am I talking about? In the same way that Balaam’s donkey could see the angel and Balaam couldn’t, changing our DNA could change the world that we think we live in. A veil could be opened or closed. Here is an example that happened in one of the trials by AstraZeneca.
“They’ve Killed God; I Can’t Feel God Anymore – My Soul Is Dead” After the Vaccine.
https://beforeitsnews.com/prophecy/2020/09/theyve-killed-god-i-cant-feel-god-anymore-my-soul-is-dead-after-the-vaccine-urgent-read-2514214.html?fbclid=IwAR3nVNZGeCXg1_SjmswXoc9UqWzQwA9HUyuYjntaGf7b4Un4RZ4JKYQQebg
Not only can eyes be opened or closed, but certainly, splicing reptilian or wolf DNA into a human being would allow them to be able to kill more easily and with less remorse. This is why opening up our DNA for anyone to tamper with becomes the “pandora’s box” that should not be opened. The fact that they are using mRNA is a sign that they are now going to try and use genetic therapy to accomplish their goals from here on out.

The Covid deception is the greatest deception we have seen in our lifetime. It has also provided the “chaos” that the world’s governments have needed to require access to our bodies so that they can tamper with our genetic material? How is that not at least putting an engine on a frame with wheels? Surely, they are trying to make a car. Surely, this is at least a crime against humanity, and how can we as the church, keep silent for those that will hear?

The Great Deception
The problem that I have with most everyone in the field of Bible prophecy is that they are always telling us what is going to happen. Everyone is so sure that they know what the MOB that they aren’t even looking for it. I will be the first to tell you that I do not know what is going to happen, or even what it will all look like when it happens. This is why I believe we must speculate on the few things the Bible gives us based upon what we are seeing happen right now. (Luke 21) I believe this chaos, deception, governmental mandates, loss of freedom, and now experimental vaccines with RNA inside them are clearly saying that now is the season and Jesus is coming soon.

But what exactly are the churches standing up for? Mostly what I see is business as usual. Just continuing to preach their next sermon series and trying to stay away from anything political. Unfortunately, most people shut down this line of inquiry before I can even get started. That is why none of this is going to convince some people. I’ve had friends of mine that will tell me, “I’m sorry Kevan, you’re never going be able to convince me that the Mark of the Beast has anything to do with vaccines.” But honestly, this only proves my point that vaccines would be the perfect way to start a pattern of needing access to our bodies. People aren’t looking for it.

They have had many vaccines before and they didn’t turn into green-eyed monsters. But Christians are not the only ones to be alarmed at the idea of changing any of our genetic codes. Like it or not, changing our DNA is the world’s most dangerous idea. Not only is that idea here, but it is also now being partially executed through a vaccine that is surrounded by chaos.

Genetic Manipulation in the Bible.
There are many troubling passages in the Bible, but Genesis the third chapter is certainly one of them. This is the chapter that gives us the first prophecy in the Bible, and it is called the “War of the Seeds.” The key part of what God says to Adam, Eve, and Satan is “I will put enmity (make enemies, open hostility, war) between you and the woman, and between your seed (offspring) and her Seed; He shall [fatally] bruise your head, and you shall [only] bruise His heel.” AMP This is prophetic of the coming of the Messiah who is the “seed or offspring” of a woman, which was fulfilled through the virgin birth.

The problem is that most people do not look at this verse as the template or strategy for how Satan plans on defeating God and His children. Satan is looking to have children himself. There is almost nothing that God does that Satan does not want to emulate. It would also seem to wage this war against God that Satan needs a lot of help. Remember, he only took one-third of the angels in heaven with him, so he is hopelessly outnumbered. (Revelations 12:4) Not only does Satan need children, but he also wants them, and the more they look like him the better.

Certainly, Satan’s desire to also take everything of God’s is why we are in a battle for souls of humanity, but does someone giving their soul to Satan fulfill this passage? I don’t believe that it does. This passage says that Satan’s greatest plan is to create offspring that will help him wage this war against God’s children. The problem is where is Satan’s seed or offspring? An even more fundamental question is how could Satan alter the DNA necessary to make his dreams come alive?

The Days of Noah
How this could happen, we are not able to answer because we have no way of knowing how much technology Satan knows. The mistake would be to think that Satan isn’t actively exploring any avenue that will help him win the war. Either way, Genesis 3 should be considered to be the backdrop for Genesis 6:6, which is the strangest story in the Bible. However, if we were already looking for the appearance of a new creature that was not created in the first 6 days of creation, then it becomes just a little less strange.

Of all the questions surrounding Genesis 6, we have to remember that the end result was the creation of the Nephilim. The Nephilim are the only real candidates for the literal “seed (offspring) of Satan” in the entire Bible. The problem is that “how this happened” is still controversial even to this day. Now I am not here to tell us that I know whether disobedient angels can have sex with women, but I am not sure that is absolutely what the text says. More importantly, if I can take a swab of anyone’s DNA and have a baby with them, no matter what sex they are, then how is Satan less technologically advanced than we are?
What I get from the passage is quite simple. Human women were taken by fallen angels, but they were also punished for what they did in the Days of Noah. (2 Peter 2:4 & Jude 1:6) The “Sons of God” did not marry these women and there was no wedding. They did not seem to keep them for very long either. When they came back, they were pregnant. When they delivered these children, they were different in every way, which means that they had different DNA. What could have changed their DNA?
While the Nephilim were different, they could still breed with humans, which means they were human hybrids. Again, if left unchecked, these genetic manipulations would have destroyed all of God’s creation by contaminating His seed or offspring. Considering that the Messiah was to come from the “seed of the woman” this was not something God could overlook. This would certainly be considered an act of war by anyone’s standards. Consequently, God had to intervene to keep the Messianic lineage uncorrupted.
Genetic integrity is also why Noah was chosen because he was “perfect in his generations.” (Genesis 6:9) The Bible goes on to tell us that God destroyed the world with a flood because all flesh had become corrupt. (Genesis 6:12) Taking that passage literally could certainly mean that their DNA had become corrupt. All of the “Days of Noah” narrative fits the Genesis 3 template. If the Nephilim or giants were indeed Satan’s genetically modified offspring, then the only question left to ask is, “were they at war with humans?

The Bible teaches that these two people groups were at war with each other. While the flood took care of most of the issue, the Nephilim continued on the earth for some time after the flood, but that was not to last. That is because the Bible commanded that they were to be killed everywhere they were found. (Deuteronomy 2:10-11, 2:21, and 3:11) These specific passages have become notorious with critics of the Bible because they have allowed them to say that God of the Bible could not possibly be a God of love to do such things.

But if we understand what God said would happen immediately after the fall of mankind (the war between the two seeds or offspring), then all of this starts to make sense. Different seed, different offspring, and their differing genetic codes are important themes from the very beginnings of our faith, but only in modern times have we been able to understand the genetic implications of these passages.

The DNA Wars
Why is all of this important? Jesus specifically tells us that just before He returns it would be just like the “Days of Noah. (DON) (Matthew 24:37) No matter what really happened in Genesis 6, the Nephilim narrative becomes the distinguishing feature of the DON. Can it then be a coincidence that in modern terms, genetic manipulation in the form of trans-humanism is once again producing a new offspring with a different seed or DNA? Their mistake the first time was to make these hybrids too different. Keep this in mind for the next phase of their age-old war. The difference this time is that God will once again have to intervene.

So, the obvious question is: if one of the major indicators that we are in the end times is that we see a new kind of hybrid human being, then maybe the Days of Noah are once again upon us. Combine this with the “super sign,” which is the mere existence of Israel and the controversy that has caused around the world, then everything necessary seems to be in play for the “end times.” (Zechariah 12:3) So, why can’t the MOB start to show its head?

Especially if there is a connection between the seed of Satan, the DON, and the MOB. Yet, there is yet another passage that speaks of two kinds of seed that is directly applicable to the people groups living in the last days. I am talking about the “Divided Kingdom” found in Daniel the 2nd chapter. Recall we are talking about the image with the head of gold followed by silver, bronze, iron, and then a unique or “divided kingdom” because it has two distinct kinds of people. Partly iron and partly clay, in that “they” mingled themselves with the seed of men, and the two would not mix.” (Daniel 2:43)

Who are the “they” being referenced here? One would have to say that the best candidate would have to be the same beings that pulled off the same feet previously. This would be the “Sons of God” or disobedient angels who were punished for what they did in the Days of Noah. Again, thinking back to the only hybrid people with mixed, mingled, or with a different seed certainly causes Genesis 3 & 6 to come to mind. Again, the Nephilim are the only clear candidates.

So, Daniel is giving us some great information reminiscent of the DON. Here is what I hear Daniel saying. In the “last days,” there are two kinds of people. Those with mingled or mixed seed, and those with unmingled or unmixed seed. But the two do not get along. Again, the seed we are talking about here in modern terms is DNA, which certainly produces two different kinds of people or offspring.

True to history, the idea of putting these two people groups together again would certainly be like trying to mix oil and vinegar. It is not going to work and everyone knows it. This is why the National Institutes of Health granted $773,000 to Case Law School to help determine “ethically acceptable rules” for how to integrate hybrids into our society. When this comes out, a new level of racism is going to immerge between those who have human DNA versus those with trans-human DNA.
https://www.christianpost.com/news/listening-to-the-transhumanists.html
Of course, the biggest complaint against some of the narratives involving the Nephilim is the lack of physical evidence. This is where I believe there is a provable cover-up. Some of this cover-up is detailed in the movie, “A Race of Giants.” The movie is not from a religious point of view. Nonetheless, the movie documents that in America alone there have been over 1,500 newspaper accounts that have referenced 3,781 skeletons of a race of blond-haired giants (7-12 feet tall).

Recently, LA Marzulli has documented many of the elongated skulls, and shown how they have different DNA than we have. (See the Watcher Series: Expert Analysis: DNA results) I go further into this argument in my “Days of Noah” series on prophecydays.com. There you will find a video link, an MP3 audio file, and a download of my notes. At this point, the fundamental question for many of us is why is changing our genetic codes a big problem.

Kinsman Redeemer Idea
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins. (Hebrews 10:4)
Animals cannot redeem humans, but Jesus can because he is related to us. Jesus is our kinsman. This is why Jesus had to be born a man, live like a man, and die like a man to redeem mankind. Jesus would be the first one redeemed to heaven, which is a higher reality of love, holiness, and joy unspeakable. Even though that higher reality has been watching over us, and cheering for us, there was no way that we could ever redeem ourselves. Vice versa, heaven could not compromise itself and allow evil to enter back in. (Revelation 21:27) No man was good enough until Jesus.

That is why Jesus’s disciples called him “good.” (Mark 10:18) Because Jesus was God, He was able to be the unblemished lamb and redeem the sins of the whole world. He redeemed our race because He was of the same race. Even more glorious, Jesus now sits on the throne of heaven. What people forget (and what Dr. Michel Heiser points out) is that there is a government in heaven that includes divine courts and counsels. The point is that the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus destroyed the legal obstacles that were preventing the reinstatement of our birthright as children of God.

That being said, if we were to argue the rights of a father to his son here on earth, most likely the court would order a DNA test. If the father has no common alleles, then that father would have no paternal rights to the child. Why do we do that? Because in some sense the father is also partly the creator of the child, but only if part of the father is also in his child. Now, I am not trying to say that our DNA saves us, but it is part of who we are and why we look like our Father.

On the other hand, we are not just spiritual beings, even though it is being “born again” of the spirit that ultimately saves our souls and our bodies. The great news is that this rebirth of the spirit will one day also give us back a new physical body. Not surprisingly, all of the saints who have gone on before us are waiting expectantly for the day when they get their bodies back. (Romans 8:23) The mistake is to think of our bodies as only a box we live in as if they do not affect who we are. The reason the Saints groaned is that without their bodies they were incomplete. Our bodies give us input, they affect our identity, and they give us a way to connect and express ourselves in the physical world. Part of us is in our bodies.

God Wrote Our DNA
If the word of God is sharper than any sword, then what is it about God’s words that makes them so powerful? There are many components to this answer, but part of the answer is that words relay information. If they come from God, they communicate correct information or truth. As we know from scripture, it is the truth that sets us free from the lies of Satan. More importantly, the right words or truth are more powerful at creating a right relationship with God than any other commodity.

Here is the parallel. Just like words, DNA is an information system. But unlike words, DNA also has the ability to change the physical reality of the user. This is why God has specifically commanded that we not mix species. (Leviticus 19:198) If we change DNA in any species, then we are changing what God created, which means we are playing God. We are also changing the image from something that God had previously called “good.” But are we capable of making something better than God?

When I think about changing anything God did or said, I like to remember that if God said something different, then all of reality would change. This is why God never changes because if He did, He would be less Holy, righteous, and loving. This is also why changing any part of what God created is wrong in general. However, when it is directed at changing our DNA, I believe it is blasphemy. After all, changing the words of the Bible has the same effect. (Revelation 22:18-19)

What I am asserting is that if God wrote our DNA, then our DNA is relaying correct information. However, if we change our DNA, then we are changing the truth of God’s creation into a lie. We are choosing to change our very identity at a fundamental level. If we change our DNA, then whose children would we be? If Satan has been planning on how to have more children since Genesis 3, how far do you think he has gotten since then? More importantly, how far can we go and still be human? How far can we go and still be related to Adam or Jesus? Only the courts of heaven could ever know, and I don’t intend on finding out.

Blaspheming the Temple of the Holy Spirit

While it is common for Christians to teach that our bodies are “the temple of the Holy Spirit,” it is not common for them to realize that every measurement of that temple is determined by the information found in our DNA. Historically, changing the dimensions or any part of the temple, Holy of Holies or the “Ark of the Covenant” would all be considered blasphemy. Now consider that the other unforgivable sin is blaspheming the Holy Spirit, which essentially comes down to denying the ultimate truth, “Jesus is Lord.”
“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:16-18)
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Revelation 13:8; also see 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)
Vice versa, all of the people who worship the beast obviously do not believe Jesus is the Son of God. This is a deal-breaker for all of heaven. After all, three simple words, “Jesus is Lord,” are the most important and utterly undeniable facts of the universe. However, this information is still something that only the Holy Spirit (HS) can reveal to us. If we deny the truth of Jesus, it is difficult to understand how someone can be saved because they have repeatedly blasphemed the witness of the HS. Keep in mind just how important the Holy Spirit is in our lives because Jesus said that it was better for Him to leave so that the Holy Spirit could come and live inside of us.

If that Holy Spirit cannot come inside us, then we have blasphemed the HS’s message. On the other hand, it is through the power of the Holy Spirit that we can walk and talk with God every day in the garden of our hearts. However, no matter how much God loves us, not following instructions or correct information is what caused Adam and Eve to sin in the first place. The same is also true for Cain. Not following the instructions for the measurements of the temple could cause God to refuse to inhabit it. It is dangerous to destroy God’s temple because God promises to destroy anyone who dares to do that.
Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)
If God refused to inhabit a temple that was not what He instructed or designed, then why wouldn’t this also apply to our bodies? Can a Holy God inhabit an un-holy temple constructed in direct disobedience? Can a holy God inhabit the unholy seed or offspring of Satan who is created in Satan’s image? Remember, God hates sin, lies, and hate. So, how could God love or inhabit a being created based on lies, sin, and hate?

This is why I believe the first unforgivable sin is connected to the second unforgivable sin, which is the MOB. I believe the MOB is also blaspheming the Holy Spirit because it defiles or destroys the temple of the Holy Spirit and making the person uninhabitable. Vice versa, Satan also wants to make a person that he or his demons can inhabit because most of them are disembodied spirits, which means they are looking for a body to inhabit and to express themselves into the world.

This is why we cannot worship God and Satan. There is a choice that has to be made, and that is why people must choose the MOB for it to work at all. The problem is that if they do, then they have defiled the temple of God, which is their own body by corrupting the image that they were made in. They are also permanently changing who’s seed or offspring they are. At best, it would seem difficult to imagine how the HS could inhabit the children of Satan. Yet, this is the promise of trans-humanism, to remake mankind into a new image and one of our choosing.

Now consider the Covid “cause” and the effect that it is having on our governments. Now the thing that we have to take to let things go back to normal requires taking something that has never been proposed in human history. The genetic material in the form of messenger RNA is now sending new messages into our bodies and rewriting God’s instructions. Who in their right mind would want to do that, but it is happening right now because of the great deception? Unfortunately, both political parties are pushing it as the solution to the problem. The only difference is that some of them are saying it should be mandatory.

Here is an article that details recombinant DNA and CRISPR technology, and how we can incorporate new information into human beings to make them better.

Enter the Alien Agenda
As if I haven’t pushed the envelope enough, I am still going there because there is an obvious connection. Few are willing to talk about it, but I am going to point out how this phenomenon is manifesting some of the exact narratives of these articles. More importantly, why aren’t we talking about aliens? After all, more Americans now believe in aliens more than God. (see below) That statistic alone should be a strong indicator as to how the Anti-Christ might best present himself to the world as its true savior. So, how can we not talk about that? After all, the things we don’t talk about are the very things that the world only hears one side of the story.
https://entertainment.ie/trending/statistics-show-that-more-people-believe-in-ghosts-and-aliens-than-god-342325/
Not only is the TV show “Ancient Aliens” popular, but much of it can also be easily debunked. (see below) However, even some basic investigation of the alien hypothesis can yield some startling intersections with Biblical themes. For instance, there is a movie on amazon prime called, Extraordinary: The Seeding. Not only does this movie have multiple accounts of women being abducted by aliens and coming back pregnant, but the name of it is “The Seeding,” which is the same word our Bibles uses talking about what Satan will one day have.

These same women are abducted again before giving birth, and this time the baby is taken. Later, some of these women are abducted and met their children. Ok, so what does that sound like? This is almost the same scenario talked about in Genesis 6. The difference seems to be that they have learned a few things since then. Meaning, they don’t let the baby be born because that might make world news.

Whether we believe in alien abduction or not, they have several connection points with some of the supernatural things found in the Bible. One example is when angels helped Peter escape prison. Like the cuffs falling off, people can pass through other solid objects. Just like Peter’s guards, people can be paralyzed so they are helpless. The shocking thing is that the people in the UFO community teach that once an abduction starts, it cannot be stopped. But this isn’t true.

A man by the name of Joe Jordan, a MUFON certified investigator, has documented hundreds of cases where the name of Jesus stopped those aliens’ abductions in their tracks. Now, what does that sound like? It sounds like we should be teaching that from every pulpit in the country. Through this discovery, Joe not only became a Christian, but he now helps people see the connection between the alien agenda and demons. He also sees a connection between Satan’s desire to have a seed or modern Nephilim, and the alien agenda.
https://youtu.be/NuMajWp_EzA & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOC7K3L86TM
But Joe Jordan is not the only one. Dr. David Jacobs is the author of “UFO Controversy in America,” “Secret Life: Firsthand Accounts of UFO Abductions,” and “The Threat.” Dr. Jacobs has been studying alien abductions for longer than anyone (30+ years). In an interview, Dr. Jacobs was asked what alien abductions have in common. He said it was their “obsession with genetic material.” When asked what he made of that he replied, they have their “own breeding program.” Now, what does that sound like? The only thing that stops these entities is the name of Jesus, and they are obsessed with genetic material probably because they have a breeding program.

Could this be why the world is going so crazy so fast? We always talk about how we are in spiritual warfare with spiritual powers and principalities, but could there be a literal seed of Satan already among us? Could this same seed be a way for disembodied demons to manifest themselves into our world and take up the age-old “War of the Seeds?” Again, I cannot say whether this is all true, but I can say that the alien phenomenon clearly has intersections with Biblical narratives like the “Days of Noah” and demonology.

The last thing I am going to mention about the alien agenda is something that Pastor Billy Crone has brought out in some of his alien studies that can be found on YouTube. Billy is a Baptist minister, but he came out of the new age movement. Consequently, he is familiar with remote viewing, astral projection, and out-of-body experiences. But one of my favorite sermons was about how aliens act like demons. Billy also does a great job at showing how many of the new age authors are channeling or remote writing for spirits who identify themselves as aliens.

Coincidentally, they are always from specific constellations that are historically occultic. This fact alone should make all of us consider the possibility that when the Abyss is opened, and the spirits who have been in prison are released, one of the obvious ways they may present themselves to the world is an alien race. Now that would certainly be quite the deception, especially when more people now believe in aliens than God.

The War of the Seeds
Just as God desires to have children, Satan also wants to do the same, but he needs them for a far more sinister purpose; to wage war against the children of God. Satan himself was a child of God and he wants to recruit us in his cause against God. But I also believe that Satan also wants to be the father and creator to a new category of beings. He can do this by remaking mankind into his image. This fundamental change is possible through trans-humanism and modern science.

If we consider the Bible to be true, then it is possible that the “war of the seeds” may be upon us just as it was in the “Days of Noah.” Unfortunately, it may be one of the major backdrops for the turmoil of the “end times.” Breakthroughs like CRISPR mean that people will be able to change their race or even create a new race of beings. I also believe that the current mRNA vaccines mark the beginning of genetic experimentation on the masses.

Unfortunately, the worldwide “cause” has blinded some people. Yet, none of this deception would be possible if we had not failed to see the connection of our body and our spirit. Our bodies are more than just our habitation (earthly house, tent, or tabernacle). (2 Corinthians 5:2) Our bodies and our DNA are why we look like God. (1 John 3:2) Dr. Michael Heiser summarizes much of the whole Bible into a drama surrounding God’s “divine family.” Dr. Heiser also calls us God’s “imagers,” meaning that we look exactly like God. This also makes sense because Jesus looks like us.

The Politically Correct Church
When we see Jesus face to face, we will look like Him and we will be like Him. (1 John 3:2) How would that meeting go if we didn’t look like Him? If DNA determines how we look, then how can anyone claim that overwriting (what God wrote) our natural RNA or possibly our DNA is somehow godly? This vaccine, by all appearances, is the start of changing what God wrote into our genes, which is why I believe this is the precursor to the MOB.

Consequently, we have no idea what kinds of doors we are opening up. There is little room to debate that we are not officially messing with the code of life, which is a form of playing God. Unfortunately, churches see this subject as a medical or political issue, so they are steering clear of it as if it will go away. But not all churches are being silent. Some are speaking truth, which is that something more than fishy is going on here.
Black leaders dare to tell the truth about vaccine depopulation GENOCIDE – https://www.naturalnews.com/2021-03-04-situation-update-mar-4th-black-leaders-tell-the-truth-vaccine-depopulation-genocide.html
There is a world-wide assault on all of our freedoms. But of all the freedoms we are losing, (speech, guns, family, marriage, boys, girls, to show our face, travel, work, liberty, and privacy), losing the rights to our own body would be the ultimate loss of freedom. Anything that comes against this right or even has the potential to change our DNA, should be avoided at all costs. One thing we know, there is a mark that is coming, but we don’t know exactly what it is except that it changes us in some way. Not only can we not be saved, but we worship the Anti-Christ whether we want to or not.

The only way we can be safe is to come out from among them. We can no longer afford to be neutral. We must defy our government and its mandates peacefully. Remember, Jesus was killed for many reasons, but one of them was political. How can we expect anything different in the end times? Our society has broken with its Christian heritage. Consequently, there is coming a day very soon, where people will no longer be able to believe what they see on TV or hear in the media and still be Christian. The false Covid narrative has already emptied our churches, and the next great “cause” will be even worse.
https://www.christianpost.com/news/fewer-churches-holding-in-person-services-than-did-last-summer.html
We who are mature in the Lord must begin to prepare those we can for this break with our society. We are now only a sub-culture or counter-culture. While we can still strive for peace, there is a war that is coming and we cannot shrink back because we are carrying the truth down to our DNA. We must continue to stand up for the Great Commission of our Lord. Just with one small change. Beware of the Mark of the Beast! Do not give up access to your body lightly. If we heed His commands, we have a promise from the Lord. He will be with us “always, even unto the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:20)

I hope you will join me in the coming weeks for our final article. I believe it promises to be yet another eye-opening experience as we explore the mystery of what is hidden in our foreheads, and its connection to the MOB. This is only one of the great schemes of the Devil that we hope to expose in our next article. May God grant us all the strength to be a light on a hill and a lamp for those who are looking where to step in these difficult times.

The Beast & The Vaccine

The Beast & The Vaccine
This article is the 3rd part of the “Covid Beast”

Update:  More Mandates Are Coming! 

Just in the last two weeks, more mandates are being made to force us into taking this “supposed vaccine.”  The pressure is on and people are losing their jobs all over the world because they are refusing to take these vaccines.  Even in America, cruise ships are demanding that we be vaccinated to board a ship. 

 

“NY is testing a ‘COVID passport,” to make sure that everyone complies with the vaccine mandates, which will begin at NY Rangers games.  Recently, a New York City waitress was fired for refusing to get the vaccine.  While some people think we are supposed to comply with all state mandates, I believe now is the time to take a stand because our Bibles have given us a warning about this scenario.

No Fear

This article is going to be a deep dive into these vaccines.  But we need to remember that we win, and nothing can shut down our faith, even persecution.  More importantly, the gospel is still being preached freely and Jesus is still changing people’s lives just like He always has.  So, before we deal with the powers and principalities that are fighting against us, we have to decide who we are going to be?  Are we going to people who live in fear, or have we been called to be a witness in times such as this?  But current events are telling us that time is running out for God’s creation.  Now is the time for the watchmen on the wall to begin to sound the alarm that there is movement on the horizon, and it isn’t our troops who are moving.

 

Unfortunately, the church is more asleep today than it has ever been in my lifetime.  Not only does the church need to wake up, but they must stop being “lukewarm.”  Cultural Christianity is no longer going to work because our society has completely disconnected from the foundations of our faith.  More importantly, they are now spreading lies that are causing people to give up their freedoms and stop going to church.  Unfortunately, this falling away, especially among the church, is another sign that Jesus is coming soon.

 

The tribulation is also coming, and we need to get the message out to anyone that might find themselves in it.  They will need to be warned of the danger ahead, and what not to do in the tribulation.  Those that hear wisdom and accept knowledge will not be deceived by the coming deception.  They will be a lifeline to the new breed of saints that will pass through the greatest fire the world has ever seen.

 

The “Cause”

We have talked about the Covid narrative and how it has blossomed into a worldwide “cause” that has partially manifested many of the main components leading up to the MOB scenario.  Our governments are in the process of mandating access to our bodies.  Many of us could lose our license or our ability to work, which would certainly make it difficult to “buy and sell.”  

 

Of course, we will still explore the three remaining components of the MOB, including the connection of the MOB to the number 666, why the MOB has something to do with our right hand or our forehead, and how the people who take this mark will also worship the beast.  But before we jump into talking about this supposed vaccine, we have to address the other “elephants” in the room.

 

False Assumptions

Unfortunately, I have found that many Christians and pastors will not even entertain the idea that a precursor (pattern or template) to the MOB is here because of the following:

  1. The rapture hasn’t occurred yet, so this can’t be the MOB.
  2. The Anti-Christ is the one who requires the MOB, and He hasn’t appeared yet.
  3. The one-world government isn’t here yet, so this can’t be the MOB.  
  4. The Mark of the Beast has to be something that we know is the MOB.  In other words, there can be no deception concerning what the MOB is or what it does to us.  
  5. The MOB must be a visible mark or a physical computer chip.  This vaccine does not leave a visible mark on us, so it cannot be the MOB.
  6. The MOB is about worship.  The worship of the beast.  Vaccines have nothing to do with worship.

The problem with all of these statements is the Bible does not teach these exact scenarios, let alone a step-by-step process for exactly how things are going to go in the end times.  Many of these ideas are based on probable scenarios, but not definitive scripture.  For example. while the rapture is going to happen, the timing of the event is hotly debated.  I would not bet my life on any of them.  When it comes to my philosophy for how to navigate these trying times, I use Luke 21, both as my template and my attitude for studying Bible Prophecy.  

 

In Luke 21, Jesus tells us the end would come shortly after Jerusalem would is no longer be trodden down by the gentiles.  This is the season Jesus was talking about and that season started in 1967.  Until then, we hadn’t seen anything happen in almost 2000 years.  But suddenly, God’s time clock started ticking again.  Then Jesus says, “when you see these things beginning to happen, stand up, lift up your head, for your redemption is drawing closer.”  God’s people are in the land, and now specific parts of the MOB scenario are happening right in front of us and very few are talking about it.  Yet the church refuses to alter its next sermon series because they fail to recognize the “signs of the times.”  This is why I believe it is time to start waking people up to the fact that Jesus is coming soon and that there is a world-wide “cause” that is deceiving so many.  

 

When it comes to the MOB, the Bible doesn’t say that the Anti-Christ institutes the MOB.  It is a world-wide “cause” is that motivates everyone towards the MOB.  Certainly, the Anti-Christ does finish the job, but a “cause” is what starts it all.  As far as the one-world government, it is getting harder to believe that there is no powerful conspiracy controlling the media, internet and manipulating virtually every country towards its goal of global control.  Chaos or a cause is the most likely way they will accomplish this goal.  So, where is the conundrum?  The “cause” comes before the mark, and who knows what else?  Since we don’t know what the MOB is, we don’t know its true effect on how things will play out.

 

For example, nowhere does the Bible tell us that the MOB is visible.  In fact, we can be marked by things that are so small, we could never see them.  They can mark us in ways that we have even yet to imagine.  The fact is that the Bible tells us so little about the MOB, it is surprising that we have gotten so dogmatic about exactly how all of this is going to come down. Our preconceived ideas about what we think will happen are why people can’t see the fulfillment of Bible prophecy even though it is happening right in front of them.  

 

This is why I have always taught that Bible prophecy was not given to us to predict the future, but so we know that God knows the future.  You could also say that prophecy is a way for us to know that the future is here.  It is also helpful to remember that the main characteristic of the end times is deception.  Don’t you think that our enemy knows the common or most popular scenarios being taught about Bible prophecy?  Wouldn’t he naturally try and avoid them so that he did not set off any alarms?  This is why Bible prophecy is cryptic.  God is going to give us broader and more general warnings so that we can recognize an infinite variety of Satan’s plans.  Too many specifics and Satan would just change his plan.  

  • For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders that would deceive even the elect, if that were possible. (Matthew 24:24)

The 1st Lie

Satan is the father of lies.  As Christians, we must be willing to address his lies to thwart his agenda.  The first lie is that this vaccine is a vaccine.  The best description of these vaccines is genetic therapy.  The second lie we are being told is that all of this will go away if everyone just takes it.  But this vaccine does not make us immune to Covid-19.  Even after taking any of the vaccines, we can still get Covid, and we can still spread or transmit Covid.  Consequently, we will still have to wear masks, and we still have to social distance.  Exactly how is this going back to normal?

 

Every other commercial is selling this lie to the American people.  Taking these vaccines is not going to let us go back to normal, and this is not going to let us develop specific immunity to Covid.  At best, it will only lessen the symptoms.  Unfortunately, the church has divorced itself from matters of the state until they have believed the same lie the media is selling.  This divorce has left us “churchgoers” alone and empty as we try and make some of the most difficult choices of our lives.  The problem is, now we will have to roll up our sleeves and capitulate for the lie. Now they want access to our bodies so they can change something.

 

** The day I released this article, the CDC is now saying that vaccinated people can hang out with vaccinated people.  Of course, now comes the obvious question; how are they going to know who has had the vaccine, and who doesn’t?  Maybe they need a mark.

This Vaccine is Genetic Therapy

While vaccines may have had some beneficial value in the past in such cases as Polio, Measles, Mumps, and Rubella, some scientists argue these diseases were well on the decline before the vaccines were introduced.  However, they can also be used for great evil.  Furthermore, vaccines do fulfill the essence of a Biblical warning about giving our governments access to our bodies.  If you don’t think vaccines can be used by evil, then watch the movie “The Origin of Aids” on Amazon Prime.  Aids has killed 85 million people worldwide and all of it could be related to a vaccine.  Additionally, the movie gives a lot of information about how vaccines are made and why they work, which is important as we move forward.  

 

Something is different about this vaccine.  As it turns out when my wife went to give blood, she was asked several times if she had been vaccinated.  Asking the tech about that, she was told that people who receive this vaccine cannot give blood.  This is not unprecedented, but now I wonder just how long this will be the case. She asked why this was an issue and they just told her that if she had received a covid vaccine they would not be able to use her blood or platelets for anyone currently suffering from covid.  They only wanted people that have never had the vaccine to donate blood and plasma.  That should be alarming to anyone that has received a vaccine.  

 

After all, that means you will not be able to give your blood to your child should they require a transfusion for any reason.  How long this might be an issue was never stated, but as a parent, it is shocking that this kind of information has never been disclosed to people receiving these vaccines. Unfortunately, this supposed vaccine should more accurately be called gene therapy because it is the first vaccine that also can rewrite your genetic code. If the hair on the back of your neck just stood up, you are not alone.  One of the key articles outlining these facts comes from an interview with Dr. David Martin.

 

This information can also be found in the vaccine paperwork from both Moderna and Pfizer, but Dr. David Martin drops quite a few bombs about the Covid deception and their supposed vaccines.  The first being that this is not a vaccine in any traditional sense.  The word vaccine is only being used to sneak it through public health exemptions and protocols.  Here are some of the most striking statements from the interview.

 

    1. No vaccine is in development for…  SARS-CoV-2 virus. That doesn’t exist…  It’s one of the unfortunate things about what’s going on in the propaganda war.
    2. When asked if SARS-CoV-2 was “the virus” and COVID-19 was the disease.  Dr. Marten responded, “COVID 19 is not a disease. It is a series of clinical symptoms…  One is a virus, in their definition, and one is a set of clinical symptoms. The illusion in February was that SARS-CoV-2 caused COVID-19. The problem with that definition and with the expectation is that the majority of people who test positive…  are not ill at all. The illusion that the virus causes a disease fell apart. That’s the reason why they invented the term asymptomatic carrier.
    3. They’ve made a false assumption that SARS-CoV-2 causes COVID-19… Most of the people who have a positive test will never have a single symptom. Most of the people who have symptoms do not have positive tests.
    4. The official numbers that we get trapped across the screens every morning of our computers, in our televisions, those numbers are willfully lying…  They have been willfully lying since the inception of this. A viral infection hasn’t been documented in the majority of what is called cases. 
    5. “The second half of the problem is that what is being touted as a vaccination” is not.  There is no “attenuated or live virus or a fragment of an attenuated virus.”  There is no prevention “from transmitting the infection,”  which is what the “common definition of a vaccine is meant to do.’
    6. The problem is that in the case of Moderna and Pfizer, this is not a vaccine. This is gene therapy. It’s a chemotherapy agent that is gene therapy.  It’s sending a strand of synthetic RNA into the human being and is invoking within the human being, the creation of the S1 spike protein, which is a pathogen. It’s a toxin inside of human beings. This is not only not keeping you from getting sick, it’s making your body produce the thing that makes you sick…  A vaccine is supposed to trigger immunity. It’s not supposed to trigger you to make a toxin.
    7. This (vaccine) is not going to stop you from getting Coronavirus. It’s not going to stop you from getting sick. In fact, on the contrary, it will make you sick far more often than the virus itself.  
    8. People are getting it more from the “vaccine?”  “Yes. You will get COVID-19 symptoms from getting the gene therapy passed off as a vaccine. You will get COVID symptoms from that 80% of the time. If you’re exposed to SARS-CoV-2 according to RT-PCR, 80% of the time, you will have no symptoms at all.
    9. What is the purpose of getting this vaccine or this gene manipulation as you call it?  “The benefit is non-existent. A human being is going to be potentially exposed to unclassified, both short-term and long-term risks of altering their RNA and DNA from exposure to this gene therapy. 
    10. This (the vaccine) is not helping us. We’re being told to take a treatment for a disease we don’t have and most likely will not have. We’re being told that using careful marketing manipulation and propaganda, calling these things vaccines for public health… We’ve been primed to accept that approach.  That’s the (vaccine) narrative everybody expects. 
    11. In Moderna’s own SEC filings, they make it abundantly clear that their technology is a gene therapy technology. In their clinical trial, they’ve made it abundantly clear that they could not measure the presence or absence of the virus and they could not measure the presence or the absence of the transmission of the virus. Every single thing that they represented to be doing that preys on the public understanding of what vaccination is, they explicitly said, “They’re not doing that.”
    12. The fact of the matter is the PCR (Covid) test has never been approved as a diagnostic. It is not diagnostic. There’s nothing about taking a PCR test that does anything other than reinforce a propaganda narrative. It doesn’t tell you anything.  I’ve interviewed Dr. Tom Cowan and Dr. Andy Kaufman, and they say the same thing. The person who came up with or developed the PCR test says that it’s not to be used to diagnose anything. People don’t understand that if you lift the state of emergency, the whole house of cards falls.
  • Talking about the taking vaccine: “I will not touch a thing and I will not allow my body to be invaded with a thing that is been developed in an unethical and illegal way. I am not going to let anybody have the opportunity to manipulate my genetic code. It’s not going to happen. If that means that it comes at a cost of a particular employer or a particular relationship or whatever else, my life happens to be worth more than that. We’ve been conditioned to fall into this trap, which is, “We might not be able to get on a plane.” So, drive.

Essentially, Dr, Marten is saying this vaccine is not a drug, it is mRNA (which is what is used to write DNA) packaged in a fat envelope to deliver a medical device into our cells that will force that cell into becoming a pathogen manufacturing site.  It does this by overriding our natural genetic coding and replacing it with theirs.  This vaccine produces synthetic pathogen, which they claim will then cause us to have increased immunity of a general nature.  We do not get specific immunity to Covid-19.  This mRNA is not a living system.  It is physical technology that produces genetic changes at the cellular level.

 

However, of all the things Dr. Martin says, one particular line stands out, and I know because I have been saying it for the past 10 years in my Bible prophecy conferences. “I am not going to let anybody have the opportunity to manipulate my genetic code (DNA). It’s not going to happen.”  When I say this, I have pastors ask me, “Why is it a problem to change our DNA?”  My short answer is, “because God wrote our DNA Himself.  Our DNA is what gives us our identity.  Our DNA contains the encoded information that makes us look like our Father’s image.  If God did not write our DNA, then God would not be our Father, but someone else would.”

 

The idea that the world governments have begun genetic manipulation upon the masses should trip everyone’s alarm here.  It is worth repeating that for as long as I can remember, I have heard how a pandemic was the most likely explanation for the world-wide cause that made everyone give up access to their bodies and take the MOB.  Now consider, I have been thinking about the MOB my whole life, and exactly what this could be.  The most troubling aspect being why Jesus can’t save someone with the MOB.          

 

The best explanation I have been able to come up with is that the MOB will not just be a physical marker, but a genetic marker.  It may even have beast or animal DNA.  Later, I will explain how I arrived at this conclusion.  Now for the denials. Just a small bit of googling, (but I now recommend duckduckgo.com) will reveal that most sources are saying this therapy is not going to change your DNA permanently.  But the fact is that it does temporarily.  Usually, when I get to a trust issue I verify, but this is going to be hard in the case.  

 

They say that the mRNA just degrades (it does come frozen for stabilization), but if that is true then how is it doing anything?  RNA is what writes DNA.  The fact is, if we re-sequence RNA, and then place it into a cell, we are high jacking that cell’s machinery to make it do something unnatural.  Unfortunately, it does still have the potential to change our DNA permanently or leave some kinds of markers behind as we will see.  After all the lies we have heard about Covid for the past 15 months, why exactly would we believe anything the mainstream media is saying now?

 

Other Views

Another source, Dr. Tom Cowan says based upon total mortality figures of 2020, and based upon their ability to actually isolate the Coronavirus, there is no reason to believe that there’s any actual coronavirus out there at all. For my money, something doesn’t add up.  There is no way they have met Koch’s postulates (the standard for establishing the relationship between a microbe and a disease), but they are saying they can’t meet these requirements because Coronavirus is not a bacteria.  I fail to see the logic.  

 

The other problem is: if they have the virus, then why do none of the current vaccines have any attenuated (disabled) Covid virus inside of them?  This could certainly explain why they are messing with our RNA instead of going the traditional route.  Furthermore, if they have the virus, then why is the PCR test so unreliable with more than 80% of the positives showing no symptoms?  While virtually every site is saying that they have isolated this virus many times, here is the link to “Letters to the CDC and their Responses Concerning the Existence of SARS CoV-2 Renamed SARS CoV-19” that indicates otherwise, and it includes references.

More Denials

According to the “Coronavirus Misinformation Tracking Center,” neither U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration stipulate that vaccines must both provide immunity and block transmission of a virus, but that is what traditional vaccines do.  The problem is that are re-defining vaccines.  In their rebuttal of Dr. Marten, they use CDC spokesperson Kristen Nordlund as their source.  “There are many ways to define it, but CDC describes a vaccine as a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.” 

 

While they are saying mRNA vaccines meet this definition, the problem is that mRNA therapy does not produce specific immunity to Covid.  It uses genetic material to force the body to manufacture a pathogen, which then in turn makes the person sick.  Of course, this does also force the person’s body to muster an immune response, but nothing specific to Covid.  Because there is no specific immunity to Covid, people still have to wear masks and keep a social distance.  Of course, you can argue that there is some protection, but certainly not specific.  So, this does not meet Kristen’s definition of a vaccine.

 

They also use the FDA’s website stating, “Vaccination stimulates the body’s immune system to build up defenses against the infectious bacteria or virus (organism) without causing the disease.” The problem is they are not stimulating the immune system.  They are high jacking the machinery of your cells using mRNA to force them to manufacture a spike protein.  In other words, they are making your body produce a disease, which is why 80% are symptomatic after taking the mRNA vaccines. 

  • https://time.com/5842669/coronavirus-asymptomatic-transmission/

 

Specifically, the immune response happens because of the production of a genetically modified Spike protein, which makes people sick.  Again, their definition says that a vaccine does not make people sick, but here we have one that is making 80% of the people sick for several days.  Honestly, their description of how sick they get sounds much like what would happen if someone was to catch covid in the first place.  Maybe less, after all, 80% of the people testing positive for Covid are asymptomatic.

At this point, I know of no research that is definitively saying there no potential for these changes to become part of our permanent DNA.  Obviously, they are claiming that these vaccines do not change our DNA, but they seem to be lying about almost everything.  Consequently, who wouldn’t have some trust issues here?  At best, mRNA is in the exoplasm or exterior of the cell.  We are also seeing an expansion of the term vaccine to include genetic therapy. 

 

At the very least, we are seeing the beginnings of a new experiment being carried out on the general public.  Consequently, there is no way of telling what the long-term effect may be because mRNA vaccines are still in the testing phase, which is why they are approved only for emergency use.  The other question that is plaguing my mind is what is so bad about catching Covid if you are the right age and have no underlying conditions?  Again, this “herd immunity” is what 55,000 doctors are recommending as the best approach.  Going the natural route gives us a better chance of being symptomatic.  Plus, it gives us specific immunity to Covid.  Isn’t that better than what is being offered with these vaccines?

The Cytokine Storm 

Even though Facebook will not let me post this study, as it has been proven false from their perspective, Dr. Dolores Cahill makes a great argument showing some “proven research” (which I have listed below) about how when mRNA vaccines were initially used on mice there was hypersensitivity upon future exposure to SARS-COV. When the mice were later exposed to naturally occurring Covid and beginning to mount a response, their bodies noticed that the same marker is present in each one of its cells, and began attacking them. 

 

This creates a massive autoimmune response or “cytokines storm,” which can lead to major organ failure, and significantly increase one’s chances of death. While the cytokines storm has been documented in some Covid cases around the globe, it is being hotly contested. While they are saying the human military trials of mRNA went better than they did for the mice, I don’t find them convincing.  There simply hasn’t been enough time elapsed to be conclusive about the long-term effects of mRNA vaccines.  Consequently,  the only way we can refute this argument is time itself. We will probably know by this time next year if vaccinated people start expressing this hyperimmune response leading to an increased risk of death.

 

The question is; if there was caution involved in going to human studies, then why risk it when most of us have no risk of dying from Covid, to begin with?  The other connection to what we have been previously covering is that Dr. Cahill agrees that when we take this vaccine, we will now be a genetically modified human being.  The reason we can say that is because our bodies do not normally manufacture foreign substances. This may all be a test to see what else they can make our bodies do.  However, we have to be genetically altered to do things outside of what our DNA is encoded for. The issue then becomes whether this is genetic modification is permanent or whether it leaves some type of residual markers.  Either way, I am not willing to take the chance. 

 

PROFESSOR DOLORES CAHILL: WHY PEOPLE WILL START DYING A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE FIRST MRNA VACCINATION

A Crime Against Humanity

This hypersensitivity to Covid because of previous vaccinations was also something that the movie “Plandemic” (https://plandemicvideo.com) alluded to.  The idea was that previous vaccinations creating hypersensitivity to Covid variants, which they postulated as to why Spain and Italy were hit so hard by Covid-19.  Yet, the real issue here is that I am not allowed to trust in God, and in what He did when He made my body.  Trusting in God and the DNA that He wrote is simply not allowed, even though I have no personal risk of dying from Covid.  I must irrationally believe I am going to die even though the evidence says otherwise.  

 

In a way, we are being forced to both worship and capitulate with the Covid narrative even though it is false. But again, 55,000 doctors (the Great Barrington Declaration) are clearly saying that “herd immunity” is better than vaccinated immunity.  In other words, these doctors are saying “trust in God” and trust in His immunity versus some other man-made vaccine.  Here is a nice study showing that God’s natural immunity is better than vaccines.  Vaccines do have risks and are full of other ingredients that can cause us harm.  Besides, even the British Journal of Medicine admits that “No vaccine is perfectly safe.”

The horror of this harmful reality is already in play.  Now we are tampering with God’s creation and the temple of the Holy Spirit as if we are God.  Remember, we are being told these vaccines are safe, and yet in Israel, more youth are dying from the vaccine than from Covid.  Here is what they found.  Unfortunately, like anyone not saying what they want us to say, they are being silenced.  Scary!  

Dr. Simone Gold of americasfrontlinedoctors.com does a great job at exposing the false Covid narrative and the supposed vaccines in “The truth about the CV19 vaccine.”  She believes this is a crime against humanity, and I have to agree.

Vaccination in Israel: Challenging mortality figures.

  • There is a mismatch between the data published by the authorities and the reality on the ground.
  • In January 2021, there were 3,000 records of vaccine adverse events, including 2,900 for mRNA vaccines.  Compared to other years, mortality is 40 times higher.
  • On February 11, a Ynet article presented data related to vaccination. The authors of the Nakim article claim to have debunked this analysis based on data published by Ynet itself: “We took the data by looking at mortality during the vaccination period, which spans 5 weeks. By analyzing these data, we arrived at startling figures that attribute significant mortality to the vaccine.”
  • The authors say “vaccinations have caused more deaths than the coronavirus would have caused during the same period.”
  • Haim Yativ and Dr. Seligmann declare that for them, “this is a new Holocaust,” in the face of Israeli authority pressure to vaccinate citizens.
  • The authors also deplored “the fact of not being able to communicate on this vital information” to their fellow citizens.

Vaccine Deaths & Warnings

While nothing is being talked about on TV and all the debunking sites smear anyone who says something bad happened after they took the vaccine, the CDC has not come out and admitted that there are some significant problems with this vaccine.  For example, “between Dec. 14, 2020, and Feb. 26, a total of 25,212 total adverse events were reported to VAERS (Vaccine Emergency Response System), including 1,265 deaths and 4,424 serious injuries.”

 

“As of Feb. 26, 180 pregnant women had reported adverse reactions to COVID vaccines, including 56 reports of miscarriage or premature birth.” None of the COVID vaccines approved for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) have been tested for safety or efficacy in pregnant women.   This is surprising since everyone is telling pregnant women to get vaccinated, but in this narrative, those 56 woman’s lives or their children’s lives don’t matter.  Here is the source for that and some other disturbing headlines.

Informed Consent

Because of all these complications of the vaccine, the CDC has finally been forced to put out an informed consent for everyone receiving the vaccine.  This means we cannot sue the companies that are making the vaccines.  Here are some of the possible contraindications of taking the vaccines.  

  • COVID-19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralizing antibodies may sensitize vaccine recipients to more severe diseases than if they were not vaccinated. 
  • Vaccines for SARS, MERS, and RSV have never been approved, and the data generated in the development and testing of these vaccines suggest a serious mechanistic concern.

Conclusion:  The specific and significant COVID-19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.

 

Notice that they refer to them as a trial because the vaccine has not been approved for anything beyond emergency use.  So, when did any of the commercials warn us of these contraindications?  Did anyone tell us that this is still in the trial stages of development?

The Johnson & Johnson Vaccine Update:

During the writing of the article, the J&J vaccine is now on the scene.  One of the first issues was noted by:  “American bishops insist the new one-shot vaccine isn’t the preferred option for Catholics since it was developed using aborted fetal stem cells from the 1970s and ’80s.”  Furthermore, fetal lines were also used to test the vaccine, even though J&J denies that there is no fetal tissue in the vaccine itself.   Still, “Catholics Urged to Shun Johnson & Johnson Vaccine Over Abortion Link.”

 

The J& J vaccine is a viral vector vaccine, which uses the genetic material of a modified version of a different virus (potentially adenovirus) to induce an immune response by instructing the body into making something similar to the spike protein. (Not sure how it does this instructing)  They are saying the genetic material delivered by the viral vector does not integrate into a person’s DNA, and it cannot cause disease.  

 

However, they do admit that this gene uses the “cell’s machinery to produce the spike protein and display it on the cell’s surface.” They also further state that some people have immunity to these vector viruses, which means they won’t work on them.  Consequently, they also use some “uncommon viruses or viruses only found in other species (such as chimpanzees) as viral vectors.”  This is also a similar scenario to what happened in the “Origin of Aids” movie. The bottom line is all this is so new, and there are many questions still to be answered, but it is still too early to trust what is happening in the J&J vaccine.  Especially the part about what gene they are using, and how it can highjack our cells to produce a spike protein, which is a pathogen.

Recombinant DNA

Regarding the mRNA in this supposed vaccine, of course, they are going to say that it dissipates, but clearly, this vaccine is changing the RNA/DNA in some of our cells temporarily. This type of treatment has been used in cancer treatment, but its goal is also closely associated with recombinant DNA therapy or rDNA.  rDNA therapy is a corrective form of gene therapy for those suffering from some kind of genetic birth defect.  Here is another article that admits mRNA has a direct effect on our DNA.  

In the case of recombinant DNA therapy, they take two pieces of DNA or RNA and recombine them into something new.  This is changing our DNA, which is already part of the goals for the super-soldier program.  While there currently seems to be some technical challenges to fully changing someone’s DNA, one would have to think that there may be some breakthroughs that are already here or are coming shortly.  For recombinant DNA therapy, they usually need multiple sessions over a longer period.  But that is exactly, what the narrative suddenly requires.

  • Bill Gates: Third Shot May Be Needed to Combat Coronavirus Variants
  • https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/gates-third-shot-coronavirus-variants/?utm_source=salsa&eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=8b68b72b-7b47-4eb9-ac13-0013b74030b4

Curiously, they are already saying this supposed vaccine may need a third session, but they also have the German, British, African, and Australian virus strains coming soon.  Each of these strains will need its vaccine.  In other words, they have created a long-term narrative where they are going to need access to our bodies indefinitely. The fact that it takes a series of treatments seems to indicate that these first few vaccines are only the precursors to the next one in the series.  I am proposing that the last one is the Mark of the beast.  

 

However, there is one question that I cannot answer, and it keeps my caution close my bedpost at night instead of in the wind.  Exactly how much can I change my DNA and still be related to Jesus?  How much can I change my DNA until I am no longer considered a human being instead of some other kind of being?  This question has no answer.  So, we must err on the side of caution.  This is why we must resist the Covid narrative and deny the access to our bodies that they so desire.  

Luciferian Technology

While we have been focusing on vaccines, there are many other options with many different potentials that may also fit into the MOB equation or the promises that Satan has made.  One of the most striking is something that has been patented called “luciferase,” and it can be delivered through a micro-needling patch.  

  • Bill Gates Vaccine Ingredient Says It All: An Enzyme Called LUCIFERASE is What Makes Bill Gates Implantable Vaccine Work
  • https://stillnessinthestorm.com/2020/09/must-read-an-enzyme-called-luciferase-is-what-makes-bill-gates-implantable-vaccine-work-vaccine-id/

This patented enzyme is named after Lucifer, because it is bio-luminescent, which means that it gives off light when exposed to certain kinds of light.  It is a way to brand us with an invisible marker that is only visible when scanned.  You should see the area treated with this patch light up once it is exposed to a scanning device.  Otherwise, it is invisible.  Remember, we have already been told that each person will eventually be branded like any product ID.  This is what agendas like the real ID2020 act are all about.  Everyone will eventually have a unique identifier on or in their body.  

 

This kind of mark would likely be the end of the cash system, as well as the end of our independence.  Unfortunately, this technology is so much more than that.  This patch can also implant nanotechnology, with essentially works like tiny micro-robots inside our body.  Nanotechnology is kind of hard to believe, but somehow, it can fit a computer or a robot on the tip of a needle or even smaller.

 

Another product call hydrogel developed by DARPA is another under-the-skin nanotechnology that places microbots inside our bodies.  They would have the ability to assemble, dis-assemble, gather personal information, and communicate through the cloud to artificial intelligence. They would be able to execute commands and even deliver medications.  It is also completely possible that they could manipulate our genes using rDNA or mRNA.  What we are also not being told is that these genetic changes could be made to be permanent.  

 

“Like other government agencies, DARPA relies heavily on partnering with corporations to develop the products needed to advance their agenda. In this case, hydrogel is made by Profusa, who s that their goal is “pioneering tissue-integrating biosensors for continuous monitoring of body chemistries.” Their website explains how it works.”

Breaking News:  mRNA Changes Your DNA

  • Bombshell: Moderna Chief Medical Officer Admits MRNA Alters DNA -https://thewashingtonstandard.com/bombshell-moderna-chief-medical-officer-admits-mrna-alters-dna/

In the course of writing this article, some new information has arisen.  Not only does Tal Zaks, chief medical officer of Moderna, say that this vaccine alters or recodes our RNA, but he affirms that it also alters our DNA permanently by “hacking the software of life.”  Here is what he means when he says that:

  • When “changing” a line of code or “introducing” a line of code” (referring to DNA), the “code” or DNA is then altered, meaning the individual or “subject” has now had their genome changed to what the “scientists” have coded. The individual or subject is no longer a creation of God but a creation of man, meaning the individual or subject could be the object of a “patent.” 

What did he just say?  This vaccine does alter our DNA.  Our old DNA was obviously written by God, but our new DNA is now written by men.  Because we have been altered by man, like any other invention, we could be the subject of “patents,” which is a title of ownership  This idea of a patent is something that companies like Monsanto have already proven to use legally to control the farming industry.  Because they own the patent on their genetically modified seeds, everyone must pay them even if their seed happens to blow onto their land. 

 

The fact is that this medical technology is genetically modifying the recipient with codes specific to each company (much like Monsanto’s patented genetically modified seed) could allow them to push for a patent of human beings.  This should sound the alarm for everyone, especially Christians who claim to belong to Christ.  But that was not the only scary thing that was said.

 

Not only does Tal Zaks agree with our premise that God wrote our DNA, but he also maintains that after we take the vaccine, we are a new creation of man and not God.  He also believes arguments can be made to “patent” us, which is the idea of a legal title or ownership.  If secular courts can make these arguments about who is our true creator and who has ownership of us, then don’t you think that Satan could also do the same thing.  For myself, scarier words have not been spoken in quite some time.  The study Tal Zaks cites is below.

  • https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28457665/

For the record, I am not fully convinced that the DNA in our chromosomes is being altered by these vaccines, but these new lines of thinking make it seem more possible than it is.  What we can say for sure is that our RNA is being overwritten with new man-made code.  Since RNA is a genetic component, we can say that these vaccines are overwriting some of our genetic codes, which means they are genetic therapy.

 

I also do not buy into Tal Zaks argument completely that changing one line of coding in our RNA or DNA will cause us to stop being a creation of God.  In the same way that putting aftermarket wheels on our new Ford does not stop it from being a Ford.  Consequently, we cannot argue that these vaccines could cause us to lose our salvation. But there is a point where a manufacturer no longer recognizes a car or truck as still being one of its own because it has been so heavily modified.  

 

I do not know what that point is, but I believe that a tipping point exists.  As we will see in the next article, I also believe that genetic modifications explain much of the mystery concerning the MOB, which is why I believe these vaccines represent the precursor to the MOB.  In other words, many more modifications are coming.  This is just the first one.

 

Another line of reasoning I have recently pursued is the idea of how manufacturer warranties work.  This is important because many aftermarket upgrades, such as a supercharger, void a car’s warranty.  The issue of warranty may be the illustration that is the most applicable to what we are talking about here.  Why do I say that?  In life, Jesus is our warranty, and we do not want to do anything that somehow may void His claims to our lives.  This is why, no matter how you look at the situation, changing our RNA or potentially changing our DNA is the world’s most dangerous idea.

 

The last thing I will say is that it would be a mistake to think that this vaccine is doing nothing.  It seems likely that this type of genetic therapy could leave behind some kind of code or marker that might be responsible for the cytokine storm or hypersensitivity reaction that occurred in mice when exposed to natural occurring Covid’s later.  Consequently, each of us must make our own decision.  However, as Christians, we cannot tolerate mandates.  Besides, after all the lies we have been told, why would I just accept this latest narrative?  But I have to acknowledge my trust issues with anything man-made, and I feel that I have made a good case for my reasons.

 

The World’s Most Dangerous Agenda

By now some of you are starting to think that I have either lost my mind or that I am grasping at straws.  However, I am not alone in my concerns over genetic changes that are being made to the human race.  The best way to illustrate this concern would be to ask a question that was first asked back in 2004.  “What is the world’s most dangerous idea?”  According to Francis Fukuyama, a Nobel peace prize-winning scientist and non-Christian, it is changing our DNA. 

Why?  Changing our DNA would irreparably change who we are.  Even more unfortunate, changing the DNA of a few people would change the DNA of the entire human race within 4-5 generations.  At that point, none of the people that God created would be left.  This is yet another reason why we are seeing a convergence of modern technology and Bible prophecy that is getting harder to ignore.  Next week we will further explore just what the implications of trans-humanism are and why it is “the world’s most dangerous idea.”  

 

But understanding just how important our DNA is to maintaining our humanity is difficult to fathom.  Consequently, of all the freedoms that have been lost since 2020, rights to our bodies could be the greatest one of them all.  The problem is that with any freedoms that we give our government, they never give them back.  So, tread carefully on the hallowed ground we now find ourselves on.

 

An Issue of Trust

But before we go, we have to ask ourselves a question.  Who do we trust for our health, wealth, and well-being?  The problem is that there have been so many lies propagated by our society since the advent of 2020 that it is difficult to even count them all.  Why would we now believe this final narrative or vaccine is our salvation?  Especially when this vaccine would more appropriately be called genetic therapy.  Yet, some churches are doing vaccination drives or even letting the state come to their church and administer the vaccines for everyone there.

  • https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/churches-pair-up-with-clinics-to-deliver-coronavirus-vaccine-to-those-who-need-it-most/ar-BB1dAaaK?ocid=sms

I get that we want to be helpful good citizens, but I struggle with how could this be the case.  How can a pastor not be fully researching what He is recommending to his people?  Is that not the blind leading the blind.  If all lies are of Satan, and if the true church is to survive, we must realize that our society has become completely untethered from our Christian heritage.  Evil is taking control.  Not only is tribulation and the beast government coming, but we are fast approaching the point where the only thing we can trust is the Lord and His word, “Trust (only) in the Lord and lean not on our own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5) 

 

If God is the God of our lives, then we can trust in what the Bible says over the Covid drama that has swallowed this nation whole. Now is the time to stand up and say that we can never give access to our bodies to any government.  God wrote our genetic material and we will not let anyone change it.  Our bodies are His temple and His spirit will protect us naturally from this supposed disease.  You don’t have to be a Christian to doubt the Covid narrative.  Again, 55,000 doctors feel that we will all obtain natural “herd immunity” just fine.  So, now is the time to let the light shine on a different narrative to all that will hear.  

 

One that puts God on His throne, so that we will no longer be “tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.”  We will let people back into the church.  We will be the rock upon which God builds His kingdom, instead of a stepping stone towards Satan’s final agenda.  May God prick our hearts, and may the church begin to wake up, because the time is getting short.  Jesus is coming soon.

The Mighty Men Who were of Old

The Mighty Men Who Were of Old

Once upon a time, giants roamed the earth.
That sounds like the beginning of a fairy tale. Most Christians have never been taught that a similar story is told in the Book of Genesis, and in very similar language: “The Nephilim (or giants) were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.”
Pastors, priests, and Sunday school teachers tend to skip the first four verses of Genesis 6 and go right to the story of Noah because—well, the verses are weird. They contradict the scientific consensus. They’re hard to understand.
Please remember this: God didn’t inspire the prophets and apostles to write filler. Moses was not assigned a minimum word count. If it’s in the Bible, it’s relevant—and if it’s weird, it’s important.
The reason we’re writing this book is that it’s become clear to us that the episode described in Genesis 6:1–4, and expanded upon in the non-canonical Book of 1 Enoch, is far more important to human history and biblical theology than we realized.
We are Bible-believing, blood-bought Christians, so let’s put to bed right now any concerns you might have that this book is going off the theological rails to add something to the salvation story. If you don’t accept the evidence we’ll present here, that’s fine; as long as we agree that salvation comes only through grace by faith in Jesus Christ, we’re good. The purpose of this study is to show you how viciously and for how long the Fallen have been waging war against our Creator. Their ultimate objectives are control of God’s mount of assembly, Zion, and authority over your eternal soul.
So, what role did the giants play in the biblical narrative?
First, we need to establish that the children of human women to the “sons of God” were literally angel-human hybrids. This is consistent with similar stories from the ancient world of gods commingling with humans to produce demigods such as Gilgamesh, who claimed to be two-thirds god and one-third human, and Hercules, the son of Zeus by the mortal woman Alcmene.
Obviously, researchers can’t produce DNA from pre-Flood human remains that will support this theory. However, it’s worth noting that for all of the faith placed by science in Darwinian evolution, only two hundred specimens of “pre-human” fossils have ever been found. If humanity has been around for ten thousand years, where are all the skeletons? But we digress.
It’s important to note that the phrase translated “sons of God” in the Old Testament, Hebrew bǝnê hāʾĕlōhîm, always means supernatural beings—angels, if you like. It does not refer to human men.
Yes, there are references in the New Testament to “sons of God” that do mean humans, but those passages are translated from Greek into English, and the context is different. The arc of history is all about restoring humanity to the garden, like the prodigal son returning home and being restored to the family as a co-heir. Someday, we will once again be “sons (and daughters)” of God in the Old Testament sense. That’s why Jesus went to the cross.
At the risk of beating a horse that’s already on life support, let me repeat: “Sons of God” in Genesis 6:4 refers to spirit beings, supernatural entities who rebelled against the Father—fallen angels who spawned an evil race of giants mingling the bloodlines of angels with humans. The “sons of God” were not evil human rulers or men from the line of Cain, or any other naturalistic explanation that’s been put forward since Augustine decided he couldn’t believe it in the early fifth century AD. Casting the “sons of God” as evil human men simply ignores the linguistic and cultural foundation of the Book of Genesis. To interpret the Nephilim as fully human means mistranslating the Hebrew and ignoring the way the very same phrase was used by the cultures around ancient Israel that spoke and wrote similar languages.
Besides, the apostles believed it. And we dare say their theology teacher was better than ours.
For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment; if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, making them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, he was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. (2 Peter 2:4–10)
The only place in Scripture where we know of angels who sinned (Satan excluded) is Genesis 6. By connecting the rebellious angels to Sodom and Gomorrah, Peter made it clear that the sin of the angels was sexual—a point he reinforced in verse 10. Like the “angels who sinned,” the wicked would be kept under punishment until the Judgment—“especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority,” exactly the sin of the sons of God in Genesis 6.
The apostle Jude was even more explicit:
And the angels who did not stay within their own position of authority, but left their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains under gloomy darkness until the judgment of the great day—just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. (Jude 6–7, emphasis added)
It could not be clearer: By connecting Genesis 6 to the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah, Jude made it clear that the sin of the angels was sexual. (It also indicates that the sin of Sodom wasn’t just homosexuality; it was the desire to cross the boundary between species. Physical relations between angel and human was just as “unnatural” as between human and animal.)
Interestingly, just a few verses later, Jude quotes the Book of 1 Enoch, which suggests that we might learn something from Enoch even though it’s not in the Bible.
When the sons of men had multiplied, in those days, beautiful and comely daughters were born to them. And the watchers, the sons of heaven, saw them and desired them. And they said to one another, “Come, let us choose for ourselves wives from the daughters of men, and let us beget children for ourselves.”…
These and all the others with them took for themselves wives from among them such as they chose. And they began to go in to them, and to defile themselves through them, and to teach them sorcery and charms, and to reveal to them the cutting of roots and plants. And they conceived from them and bore to them great giants. And the giants begot Nephilim, and to the Nephilim were born Elioud [“gods of glory”]. And they were growing in accordance with their greatness. They were devouring the labor of all the sons of men, and men were not able to supply them. And the giants began to kill men and to devour them. And they began to sin against the birds and beasts and creeping things and the fish, and to devour one another’s flesh. And they drank the blood.
Dr. Michael Heiser makes a convincing case in his book Reversing Hermon that a key aspect of the mission of Jesus was to reverse the evil of the Watchers. It’s obvious in 1 Enoch that the impact of the Watchers went well beyond producing monstrous hybrid offspring. Besides sorcery and potions, the fallen angels of the Hermon rebellion taught humanity the arts of divination, cosmetic enhancement, metalworking, fashioning weapons, making “hate-inducing charms,” and “the eternal mysteries that are in heaven,” which clearly were things man was not meant to know. In short, because of the forbidden knowledge passed from the Watchers to humans, the earth became filled with sex and violence.
For this, as Peter noted, God imprisoned the rebels in the abyss. While most English Bibles translate 2 Peter 2:4 as “cast them into hell,” the Greek word, tartaroō, literally means “thrust down to Tartarus.” That’s different from Hades, the word most commonly used to designate the underworld home of the evil dead. In Greek cosmology, Tartarus was as far below Hades as the earth is below heaven. It was a special prison reserved for supernatural threats to the divine order—basically, Hell for supernatural beings.
This is the only place in the New Testament where tartaroō is used, which means it’s important. It referred to a unique event, but one with which Peter’s readers were obviously familiar—the famous story of the Watchers who attempted to corrupt humanity physically and spiritually.
