Aftergeddon: What of those who are not Jewish?


Welcome to Thus Says the Prophets!

What of those who are not Jewish?

Part Two of: Aftergeddon:
The World After Armageddon: Paradise Restored!
By John of AllFaith © 1.07.09

As we rapidly move toward the revelation of the Beast it is important that we understand who the players in this momenteous transition are and where we as individuals fit in. To this end consider the words of Prophet Isaiah carefully.

Isaiah 56:

    1 Thus saith HaShem, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
    2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
    3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to HaShem, speak, saying, HaShem hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
    4 For thus saith HaShem unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
    5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
    6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to HaShem, to serve him, and to love the name of HaShem, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
    7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
    8 HaShem, GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
    9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
    10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
    11 Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
    12 Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

As I discuss in Part One, the Rex Mundi (the coming New World Order ruler) will be accepted by most people -- including Jews, Christians, Muslims, Agnostics and so on when he signs his seven year peace treaty between Israel and its neighbors. This signing will occur in "troublesome times" as Prophet Daniel tells us (Dan 9:25). There is every reason to believe we are quickly approaching this event. When this treaty is signed those who would understand what is happening should give heed because the final seven years of our age will have begun. This could happen very soon.

We know that the Jews (the physical and spiritual descendants of Abraham and Sarah -- hence the arguments that the Ashkenazim are not "real Jews" is nothing but an attempt to divide the people of HaShem) are the main focus of the prophets. So what of the rest of us who desire the blessings of HaShem? Where do we fit in?

I discuss Christianity and its relationship to the Jews and HaShem at my Noahide Nazarene website. There I show how the original Way of Master Y'shua (Jesus of Nazareth) was waylaid by the rise of the Nicolaitane (i.e. Nicean) heresy and how to this day the heresy, like a poison running through the veins of the Church continues to pollute and alter the Jewish teachings of the Master.

According to Prophet John this Nicolaitane poison will, in the Last Days, cause the Church to be "vomited" out of HaShem's mouth:

    Rev. 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
    15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
    16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
    17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
    18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

That this will happen is confirmed by the Apostle Paul in this way:

    Romans 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
    2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew....
    ....
    5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace
    6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
    7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded
    8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.
    9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
    10 Let their eyes be darkened that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.
    11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
    12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
    13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
    14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
    15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
    16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
    17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
    18 Boast not against the branches.
    But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
    19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
    20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
    21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
    22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness,
    if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
    23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
    24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
    25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
    26 And so
    all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
    27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

    28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

    29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. (emphasis mine)

The Nicean/Nicolaitane Church has become pompous and hypocritical, lukewarm and devoid of spiritual power. While there yet still remains a faithful remnant within the Church, generally speaking Christianity points to all others with scorn and hypocritical condemnation, claiming itself to be wise it has become a Laodicean fool! Even now the Church is being vomited out of HaShem's mouth and severed from the Tree of God's Holy Will as we quickly arrive at the end of the Times of the Gentiles and the restoration of Israel and the Messianic Theocracy:

    Luke 21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
    21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
    22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
    23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
    24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

The Times of the Gentiles are nearly fulfilled. The Time of the Messianic Kingdom is almost at hand!

These Gentile Times will end with the destruction of the New World Order and its soon coming Rex Mundi.

Once the Rex Mundi commits the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, the Jews will turn their eyes to HaShem in despair, as Master Maimonides foretold, and then will Moshiach come!

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob!

But what of the rest of us? What of the non-Jews?

Again consider Isaiah 56 quoted above.

Here's this chapter again in a modern version of the King James (textus receptus):

    Isaiah 56:1 Thus says the LORD, Keep all of you judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
    2 Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it; that keeps the sabbath from polluting it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
    3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD has utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
    4 For thus says the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
    5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
    6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keeps the sabbath from polluting it, and takes hold of my covenant;
    7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
    8 The Lord GOD, which gathers the outcasts of Israel says, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
    9 All you beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all you beasts in the forest.
    10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
    11 Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
    12 Come all of you, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

"Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it."

In other words, blessed are the Jewish people who, based on the Tanach and on their covenants with HaShem follow these directions.

"Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD has utterly separated me from his people:"

The "stranger" here in Hebrew is a Nekar (nay-kawr'), a non-Jew. We non-Jews are NOT cut off from HaShem! Never let it be thought that we are! Blessed also are we non-Jews (i.e. we Gentiles) who maintain faith in HaShem! Who are these Nekars? In John's prophecy of the vomiting out of the Church he tells us clearly:

    Rev 3:18 I counsel thee [Christians] to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
    19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
    20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
    21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
    22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

There is ONLY ONE GOD!

This One God is known my countless Names, even in the Bible (as HaShem, as El, as Elohym, as El Echad, El Gibbor, El Shaddai and so on) and yet He is the God of the WHOLE WORLD, the Parent of us ALL.

The Torah (the first five books of the Bible) is the account of how the One God made a special covenant with the descendants of Abraham and Sarah (i.e. the Jews) in order to liberate and bless the entire planet (for example Gen 12:3,4). The Tanach (the rest of the Hebrew Bible) tells of how the Jews faltered by human weakness and how step by step HaShem still worked with them to carry out the salvation of the planet. The New Testament contains the Word of HaShem about how He would use the Gentiles to show the Jews that they could be replaced! That HaShem does not need ANYONE! That everyone needs HaShem! As Master Y'shua warned his Jewish followers,

    Matt 3:9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

This is the role of the Christian Church: To be Stones in God's hands! Where is the justification for self righteousness?

And yet as shown above, HaShem NEVER turned His back on His Chosen People Israel. He merely demonstrated that need for the Jews to have humility. The Church began with the pure teaching of Master Y'shua but it soon fell into heresy. Now the word to the Church is not to be haughty but to understand that even as HaShem could elevate the Gentiles and temporarily lower the Jews, so too at these end of the Gentile Times He would lower the Gentiles and again elevate the Jews!

How great is God's power! How insignificant is ours!

All of this was in the Mind of God from the very beginning!

How so?

    Genesis 12:1 Now HaShem had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee:
    2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
    3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee:
    and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

People Israel are the point of it all! Through People Israel HaShem will bless us all!

How?

    Zech 8:20 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
    21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also.
    22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD.
    23 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

By Establishing the Global Kingdom of God!

We are still awaiting the coming of the Kingdom.

We are still awaiting the coming of Moshiach

The prophets are clear that the New World Order will for a time be victorious. That from it will arise the Rex Mundi. We are now awaiting his revelation.

Once the Rex Mundi rises -- and he will -- he will sign a seven year peace treaty with Israel.

Approximately three and a half years after that treaty is signed the Rex Mundi will commit "the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet":

    Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
    25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
    26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
    27 And he [Rex Mundi] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week [i.e. seven years]: and in the midst of the week [i.e. roughly three years] he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Once the Rex Mundi commits this abomination the world will be three and half years away from the establishment of the Kingdom of HaShem and the beginning of a truly glorious age.

BUT this will be the worst, most difficult three and half years in human history:

    Matt 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
    22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

Those days, the final three and half years known as the Great Tribulation will be "shortened" by Moshiach who will come to save Israel and through them all who bless Israel and who trust in HaShem.

We are ALMOST there!

Having done all you can to stand, STAND!
