Scripture Reading: Matthew 13:10-11

Jesus and his disciples preached the gospel of the ?   What is the missing word?  When I read the Bible through each month, many years ago; this question was a major inquiry that I had no idea of how to answer.  What was the gospel that our Savior and His disciples preached:  It was the gospel of the kingdom of heaven.  I had no idea what the kingdom was!  Let alone the gospel of the kingdom.

I knew the gospel of personal salvation.  I did not know the gospel of the kingdom.  So, when I went to Florida one summer for a couple of weeks about 40 years ago, to help out an independent Baptist preacher with his personal, secular contract work, while there I asked him this question:  What is the kingdom?

He answered:  “I will study it out and preach you a sermon on it this Sunday.” 

I was excited.  I would finally have a whole lot of Scriptures come out of the darkness into the light if I knew the answer to this question.  But I will never forget what happened.

Scripture Reading: Job 23:10-11

Gold has to be tested with fire.  The hotter the fire, the more impurities are burned away.  Our Father loves you.  Be an overcomer.  God's timing in your life is perfect.

Scripture Reading: Luke 10:2

In prophecy, what is the harvest?  From today's Scripture reading, the harvest simile commenced during Christ's lifetime, as He sent out 35 advance teams of 2 disciples (student interns) each (70) to the venues where Christ would go for ministering.  If the prohibition of going to the heathen and Samaritans was sound advice, is there any reason to believe that they would go to places where Christ was not scheduled to go?  Does one harvest their crops in thickly wooded forest, the frigid tundra or tropical jungles?  No, we harvest our crops from the cultivated areas from which we planted seed and gave nourishment.  Christ bids His students, whether it was directed to the 12 or the 70 is immaterial, to pray for the Lord of the harvest, which is proof of prayer being made to He who has the care and charge of the whole election of grace, to wherever the elect reside, that He will send forth laborers into His harvest.  Why?  Because the elect are scattered throughout the world and are a particularly vast multitude, specifically Christ's compassion for the lost sheep of the house of Israel; men perishing for a lack of knowledge and sheep without a shepherd.  The harvest is not found in every square inch of the earth, but in the fields of the world, where a potential bounty is planted.  Universalism would go on missions where they dared to check Christ's orders.  They lacked not only an understanding of the prophetic harvest, but hindered it as well; they gave that which was holy to the dogs (Mt. 7”6).  Global elitists, i.e. those who want to rule the world without Jesus Christ, do not want Bible prophecy to interfere with the status quo and their power structure.  And so prophecy must be distorted and managed in their favor.

Scripture Reading:  Genesis 27:39-41

Esau passed his hatred of Jacob to his children.  They waited for Jacob to return from Syria after he had left by his father’s and mother’s request.  Esau was ready to murder him.  Let’s review:

• Jacob received the birthright from Esau in a deal in which Esau traded it for a bowl of red lentil soup.
• Isaac had blessed Jacob; but Jacob obtained it deceitfully from him with help from his mother.
• Jacob had been sent to Syria to take a wife of his own kind.  Jacob was charged not to take a wife of the Canaanites.  He married his mother’s niece.
• Esau’s Canaanite wives did not please his parents, so Esau married his father’s niece; an Ishmaelite.
• Jacob obeyed his parents by going to Syria.  He was there for 20 years.

Before Jacob left on his journey, his father called to him and blessed him and gave him a charge:

Scripture Reading: I Cor. 13:4-10

If you recall, earlier this year, I did a series called 'Rebuttal to JVT,' and I mocked their promulgation of so called prophetic “blood moons,” the last of which was Monday morning on the 28th of September (2015).  And what spectacular event fulfilled all the hoopla we've been hearing from prophecy experts for the last couple of years?  Nothing, zip, zero, zilch.  The Pope came to America and made a big Jesuit ass out of himself, addressing Congress for the first time ever and not once did he mention Jesus Christ!  There is nothing in the prophets about the rank of Pope.  Russia and China have vowed to fight ISIS, because they know Obongo is Commander in Chief of ISIS.   There is nothing in the prophets allowing strangers, who are not our kin, to rule over us, unless the wrath of God is kindled and we get somebody like Barry Sotero as punishment.  Maybe the Apocalypse has been canceled until the next blood moons in 2033.  John Hagee, one of the most celebrated jewish stooges of the century, has milked this cash cow with his bestselling book rattling the cages of his followers, with the premise that “The coming four blood moons points to a world-shaking event that will happen between April 2014 and October 2015,” told reporters the day after the lunar lunacy, it meant, “an event of historical significance to the Jewish people is occurring or will occur.”  Do you think he could be a little bit more generalized with egg on his face, in saving face?  It's ironic that these prophecy teachers contend that it's the end of the world, when no such thing is taught in the Bible.  Nothing in the prophets indicates the planet earth will cease to exist.  Do you think he cares about God's Law for false prophets?  And why are so many people fooled by fools?  The blind lead the blind.  The prophets were never respected because they went against the status quo.

Scripture Reading:  Acts 15:7-9

The Roman Catholic Pope came to America this week.  At the same time the Unholy Father dropped in on the nation’s capital, the Jews were celebrating their holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur; which was from Tuesday evening to Wednesday evening.  And the Muslims were celebrating one of their two most important festivals, from Wednesday evening to sundown Thursday.

Scripture Reading:  Acts 13:32

“And we declare unto you the glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, God has fulfilled the same unto us their children…”

Can anyone claim that this is not a racial statement?  Fathers…children is racial.  The Bible is full of statements like this one.  Then how could a Rabbi say the following unless he is deliberately lying?

“If anything, the law should encourage, not forbid, the intermingling of bloods…But legislation cannot change the human heart.  The only way we can accomplish that, the only we can achieve a Final Solution to racial prejudice, is to create a Change of races so universal that no one can preen himself on his racial ‘purity’ or practice the barbarism to safeguard it. 

The deliberate encouragement of interracial marriages is the only way to hasten this process.  And it may be that time is growing short.  The dominance of our world has begun to shift, like cargo in a listing vessel, from the White races to the colored.  The sooner we adjust to this fact, the better it will be for our children.  For we might well acknowledge, even the most enlightened of us, that we will never completely eliminate racial prejudice until we eliminate separate races.”  Rabbi Abraham L. Feinberg, Maclean’s Magazine, September 5, 1967.

The Rabbi tells his lie that if they eliminate separate races that it would be better for our children.  Why would it be better?  All that would happen is that our children would no longer be a part of the Kingdom of God!  That is not better, that is worse!  They would be cut off like Esau’s offspring.  They would be a mongrel just like the Rabbi.

Back in the twenties, the great Christian Industrialist, Henry Ford, after writing his four-volume book, The International Jew, said at that time there wasn’t a Christian seminary in the country that had not been penetrated by the Zionists.  I am sure that what you’re about to read is not an isolated case as these erroneous and new doctrines are taught in all the fundamental and Evangelical churches today.

God gave the prophets “Parables” to encourage the covenant people about their redemption and their future.  When Jesus Christ came, the people had no priests or prophets who were faithful or believed in the Lord.  Again, He gave them parables to keep the enemies from understanding.  However in the followers of Christ, these parable gave pictures of hope about the fulfilling process of the kingdom work during this time.

live off of the work of others.

Scripture Reading: Genesis 27:34-38, 41

A People Without a Country

I remember reading in high school the short story about “A Man Without A Country.”  I don’t remember all the details, as it has been over 60 years ago since I read it, but the man was convicted of some crime in the country that he immigrated to, and the country deposited him.  The crime was of such a nature that the country that he left wouldn’t take him back either.  So he just floated on a boat in the international waters for the rest of his life.

There is also a people that do not have a country either.  They are destined to live in any country that will have them for they are able to parasitically make a good living off of them until they kill the host country.  It has happened over and over in history and yet very few people are aware of it. 

The Bible tells of these people.  This portion of Scripture--is it just a story of what happened to one of the many families in the Bible, or is it told to give us a clue as to what is happening in the world today?  Let’s take a short quiz on the family of Isaac and Rebekah:
