Truth in History

A Closer Look at the Antichrist

The Bible describes the Antichrist as a man who will come out of the Roman Empire and possess great power over all nations. Bible scholars and preachers have suggested various individuals throughout history who may fit this description, including Nero, Domitian, Mohammed, Charlemagne, Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Woodrow Wilson, Mussolini, Hitler, Stalin, FDR, JFK, Armand Hammer, Henry Kissinger, Saddam Hussein, President Obama, a Jew, or the Papal dynasty. However, a closer examination of the biblical description suggests that the papal dynasty is the most likely candidate for the Antichrist.

The Importance of the 70 Weeks Vision in Daniel

The 70 weeks vision in the book of Daniel is a divine time measure that points to the coming of the Messiah. It is the only time measure in the Bible and prophesies the exact year of the Messiah's appearance, as well as the six functions he will perform. The prophecy began with a certain decree in 457 B.C. and ran for 490 years, with the final week ending in 34 A.D. It is essential to understand the 70 weeks vision in order to fully appreciate the significance of the crucifixion of Jesus and his role in ushering in the new covenant.

Our topic is the 70 weeks and logical conclusions. I want to share the testimony that brought me here. Back in 1981, I was caught up in Hal Lindsey's book, The Late Great Planet Earth, which was all about futurism and the end times. But then I attended a seminar by a man named David Campbell who presented historicism, specifically the 70 weeks of Daniel. In just three hours, he proved from Scripture and history that the 70th week of Daniel was perfectly fulfilled during the ministry of Jesus Christ. This devastated everything I thought I knew about Bible prophecy. I began a ten-year journey of study and research, which resulted in my book, The 70 Weeks: The Historical Alternative. I never asked for a dime of royalties from any of the ministries who published my work. I wanted the money to go towards getting the books out and blessing the ministry. This seed, along with the seed of other ministries, is leading to an awakening of the truth. We need to get the 70 weeks right in order to understand our history and our present. We will explore different interpretations of the 70 weeks and look at the Reformation and its unifying doctrine. We need to handle the truth wisely and with fear and trembling. In this segment, we will be examining the false doctrine being taught and the sources from which it originated, designed to destroy the Reformation. We will be looking at the Jesuits and their role in the Counter-Reformation, and how their teachings have influenced most of the Protestant Bible prophecy teachers. We will also be examining the Protestant Reformation and the role of figures like Wycliffe and how they opposed the counter schemes of the Roman Catholic Church. We will be discussing relevant issues, such as the hindrance that will come and the removal of the Holy Ghost. We will also be addressing the issue of the temple being rebuilt and how it is a lie that leads to chaos. We will be exploring the divine time measures in the Bible, particularly the prophecy of Daniel 9, and how it must be interpreted as day for a year. We will also be examining the futurist teachings and their logical conclusions. Finally, we will be looking at the six messianic prophecies and the time measures surrounding them, and how they relate to Christ.

Historicism is a method of interpreting past and current events in relation to biblical prophecy, which confirms the accuracy and credibility of divine scripture and demonstrates that God determines and controls the affairs of men and nations. This approach is rooted in two verses from the book of Isaiah 46:9-10, which state that God's plans will stand and that he has declared the end from the beginning. In this discussion, Robert Caringola and Pastor Jennings delve into the prophetic perspective of Historicism and its details. They stress the importance of the truth of scripture and the power of the Word of God to establish and strengthen us.

At present, the study of Bible prophecy is at a crossroads and the speaker has been deeply considering this topic for months. The speaker highlights the book, 70 Weeks, as being a critical source for understanding the prophecy of the 70 weeks. This speaker believes that this topic has the potential to be a game changer. The discussion also covers the possibility of Christ leaving his throne, working through his people, and the rapture into heaven, as well as the teachings of the English Reformation. The speaker warns against ignoring the study of Bible prophecy, as it is a crucial aspect of understanding the truth. In conclusion, the speaker encourages everyone to take this topic seriously and to follow along with a copy of the book, 70 Weeks, as a reference guide.

In the Bible, Benjamin is prophesied as a tribe with spiritual light and a connection to the House of David. The Lord promised to give the tribe to David for a spiritual light, to guide the House of David. In Deuteronomy 33, the Lord says Benjamin, the beloved of the Lord, shall dwell in safety by him and be covered by the Lord all day long. The tribe is represented by the stone of Jasper in the breastplate of the high priest, symbolizing spiritual light.

In the New Testament, when Jesus chose his disciples, he chose one from Galilee and said they would be fishers of men. Benjamin is believed to have been chosen by Jesus to receive the knowledge and understanding of the mysteries of the Kingdom of God. When Saul became an apostle, he claimed to be of the tribe of Benjamin.

Great Britain and America are believed to be Ephraim and Manasseh, and the spiritual light has followed the Israel people, leading to the spread of the gospel. In Revelation 21, Benjamin is represented by pure light and spiritual understanding, which has come to fruition in the Lamb's wife, the 12 tribes of Israel.

In the latter end of the existence of the tribe, there is hope and Rachel is told to dry up her tears because there is hope in the end. Jesus Christ is the Melchizedek priest, prophet, and coming king. Despite attacks on Christianity and Christ, there is hope in the end.

"How the Jews Invented Hollywood - An Empire of Their Own" is a book that provides insight into the role of Eastern European Jews in the development of the American film industry. The book explores how the main players in the industry, including Karl Lemieux, Adolph Zukor, William Fox, Max Goldstein, Louis B. Mayer, Benjamin Warner, and Cecil B. DeMille, utilized Thomas Edison's inventions to create a new form of entertainment. The book also covers the influence of immigrants on the American entertainment scene and the impact they had on American culture and values.

In Matthew chapter 13, Jesus tells the story of the tares and the wheat. The story is about a farmer who was supposed to watch over his field but fell asleep, allowing an enemy to come in and sow tares among the wheat. The Lord ultimately commends the unjust steward because he sowed the tares in the Kingdom of God and those who do iniquity will be cast into a furnace of fire. The righteous will then shine forth as the sun in their father's kingdom.

These men found Thomas Edison's inventions such as phonographs, electric lights, peep shows, and movie pictures and began to buy and use them. American values ultimately came to be defined by the movies the Jews made. The movie industry was a result of enterprise and brains from the sweatshop and Penny Arcade game.

Many present-day leaders of the movie industry were poor, hardworking immigrant Jews. However, some people, including Charles Lindbergh, believed that the Jews' large ownership and influence in the movie industry, press, radio, and government posed a danger to the country.

A lot of movies can have a damaging effect on people's mental health, and this is not in line with the teachings of God. Deuteronomy 28:32 states that our sons and daughters will be given to another people, and parents will lose control of their children. In Chapter 11 of the book of Revelation, Jesus says that he will destroy those who destroyed the Earth and the Western world. It's time for Christians to take a stand and protect their culture and young people from being taken over by another group.

The Book of Esther in the Old Testament tells the story of a beauty contest, where the queen Vashti was deposed and a Jew named Esther was chosen as the new queen. Mordecai, Esther's uncle, was a Jew who was in good standing with the king. However, a plot to destroy all the Jews, including Mordecai and Esther, was devised by a man named Heyman. Esther eventually reveals to the king that she is a Jew and through a series of events, the king reverses the decree to destroy the Jews. The book never mentions the name of God and the story is not referred to in the New Testament.

The word "Jew" was a post-Babylonian term, taken from the Tribe of Judah, and there were eight ways a person could become a Jew, including being a full-blooded Jew, a forced conversion, living in the land of Judea, and more. Judaism was formed after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and the Great Synagogue ruled for 150 years. The Hebrew Old Testament was translated into Greek in approximately 294 to 289 B.C.

The Book of Esther raises questions about the nature of the people called Jews at that time and whether Esther and Mordechai were true, pure-blooded Jews. However, regardless of the background of the people in the story, the author emphasizes the importance of learning and understanding the history in the book, and giving glory and praise to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Esau and the Edomites is an often overlooked topic in many churches. The question arises, if evil is associated with Esau, when did this hatred end and when did God change his mind to love Esau as much as Jacob? The Bible provides insight into this subject.

Isaac prayed to the Lord for his wife who was barren and the Lord answered his prayers. Rebecca, his wife, gave birth to twins who struggled in her womb before birth. The Lord told Rebecca that two nations were in her womb and one would be stronger than the other, with the greater serving the younger.

According to the Book of Jasher, Esau was deceitful from birth while Jacob was perfect and wise. Isaac loved Esau for eating his venison, but Rebecca loved Jacob. In Genesis 25, Jacob offered Esau bread and lentil pottage, and when Esau ate it, he despised his birthright. Jesus mentions that Esau fled from Nimrod due to exhaustion from fighting and fleeing.

Esau was 40 years old when he married Judith, the daughter of Bride. Isaac blessed Jacob and charged him not to take a wife from the daughters of Canaan. Esau cried bitterly when he saw Isaac bless Jacob and send him away. The Bible mentions a conflict between Isaac and Jacob in Genesis 33.

In Exodus 17, there was a war between Israel and Al-Malik, descendants of Esau. The Lord told Moses to write a memorial of this in a book and to declare it to Joshua. The Edomites did not accommodate the Israelites, leading God to hold it against them for generations.

In 2 Samuel 8, David had a close companion who turned on him, typical of Edomites who deceitfully gained high positions next to the king. In John 13:18, Jesus spoke of his betrayal and death, referring to Judas Iscariot. Jesus used the same term as David when referring to his betrayal.

In Matthew 21:38, Jesus gives the parable of the householder concerning the vineyard of the Lord. The husband sent his son, who the husbandmen wanted to kill to seize his inheritance. In John 8:38, Jesus argued with the Pharisees and Sadducees, saying they sought to kill him because his word had no place in them. Jesus revealed they were of their father the Devil.

When Jesus was born, Herod, a descendant of the Herodium who had converted to Judaism, was on the throne and tried to kill Jesus. When Jesus confronted the Herodian scribes and Pharisees, he was dealing with Edomites who betrayed him. In Psalm 83, Edomites are described as warmongers and God has declared war against them. They are Confederate against the tabernacles of Edam and the Israelites of Moab, Gebal, Ammon, and Philistines.

With the recent election results causing disappointment among conservative viewers, the question arises: what should be our approach as citizens in this situation? Democracy is often talked about, but what does it really mean? After listening to Joe Biden's speech, it seems that democracy means mob rule. The government established in 1776 and 1787 is no longer in place and has legalized sin. The masses are given permission to disobey the law of God by the authority from the top. The people want what is happening, as seen with the goons marching in the streets. However, God is still in control, as stated in Daniel 4 and Psalm 16.

It's not wise to rely on the political parties, Republicans or Democrats, to save America. Men may fight for office for party sake rather than principle. Even if Republicans were in control, it wouldn't stop the moral corruption and filth coming out of Hollywood. LZ Granderson warns that severe judgment is coming for the wicked American empire and that too many Christians are relying on the Democratic Party. Instead, as Christians, we should put our confidence in God's sovereignty and trust in His Son, Jesus.

In the past, Protestants were martyred for their faith under pagan and papal Rome, which was taken over by evil individuals. The Bible even predicts that women and children will reign over us due to disobedience. However, God has given men authority in the home, church, government, and business. The current vice president is not qualified for the position. The story of Stalin dying alone in his office serves as a reminder that those in power will eventually face the end.

As Christians, we should stop relying on man-made structures and instead be joined to Jesus Christ. The Lord is in control and all nations are as nothing before Him. Our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus, His blood, and righteousness. Let's trust in Jesus' name and stand on the solid rock. The oppressive intelligence community that snoops on us should not be a source of fear, but rather, we should rely on Jesus as our master.

Balaam - The Prophet For Profit by Charles A. Jennings

I have a strong opinion on the concept of the "Judeo-Christian tradition." While it's true that America has roots in both Judaism and Christianity, the use of the term "Judeo" before "Christian" is something that has always troubled me. In my view, it's a form of compromise that allows for Christians to avoid being labeled as extreme.

The purpose of the American civil religious establishment, which is a unique form of religious pluralism, is to allow people of different religions to coexist peacefully. Unfortunately, many evangelical Christians have bought into this idea, even though it is nothing but compromise. Christianity, in my opinion, is the incarnation of God in Christ and should not be blended with any other religion.

When it comes to the source of Christianity, it is clear to me that the New Testament is the account of Jesus Christ's person, work, and being. Christianity is not the same as Judaism, and the two faiths stand for different things to different people. For Jews, the Messiah is still to come, while for Christians, he has already come.

In the 19th century, a philosophical-theological approach called higher criticism emerged in Germany. European intellectuals began to view Judaism and Christianity as essentially similar, leading to the idea of a "Judeo-Christian" connection. However, I believe that this idea is a result of the opposition to both Judaism and Christianity and the delusions of Judaism.

The six-pointed star of David, often seen as a symbol of Judaism, was not used as a religious sign by the Israelites and only became the insignia of the Zionist movement in 1897. There are also significant theological differences between Judaism and Christianity, as pointed out by Jewish scholar and theologian Trudy Wise.

As someone who is concerned about our civilization and its future, I want to share the truth and see a revival of biblical apostolic Christianity. I believe that the conservative movement will not be successful in this endeavor, as it is only a reaction against liberalism. Instead, what we need is a divine intervention from God and for Jesus Christ to be exalted and preached as the deity that he is.

In conclusion, I firmly believe that the concept of the "Judeo-Christian tradition" is nothing but compromise and that Christianity should stand on its own, separate from Judaism or any other religion. We need to return to the principles of biblical apostolic Christianity and rely on divine intervention from God to see a revival in our land.
