Elijah, Where are You?

The Legend of Elijah

The Jewish people have a custom to leave a vacant seat and a place set at the Passover table for the Prophet Elijah. With the sound of a knock, the children run to the door and say, “Elijah, is that you?” When he comes, they expect him to be a herald of the coming of the Messiah, to resolve all unanswered questions concerning the Law of Moses, and to deliver God’s people into that Land promised by God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and to their offspring. This includes all twelve tribes of the House of Israel.

The Arthurian Legend

Similarly, in the Arthurian Legend of the Round Table, there is an empty seat awaiting the rightful king, being the Messiah, the Branch of David, aka King Arthur. He, in pulling the sword from the stone, will thus become the High King over all the House of Israel (Gen 49:8-10). This legend is tied to the story of the Holy Grail, the Last Supper and Joseph of Arimathea, who founded Glastonbury in Britain after the death of Christ.
But how are two Legends tied together?

The Federal Reserve System – Part 1

Anniversary of the Federal Reserve System

One hundred and four years ago the Federal Reserve System was established in America. On December 23, 1913 the fruit of a criminal conspiracy came about by an act of Congress cleverly named the Federal Reserve Act, since it is neither federal nor does it hold anything in reserve. It was a usurpation of power given to Congress to control currency by way of the U.S. Constitution. The ‘founding fathers’ of this nation were careful to plan it that way so that a ‘central bank’ would not be able to insert itself and enslave the population here as it had done in Britain and Europe with a debt currency. These tyrants used several tricks to bring it about.

But it's NOT! — Looks like an official Federal Entity!

First, the conspirators met in a secret cabal during the Thanksgiving holiday of 1910. Seven members including a U.S. Senator, Nelson Aldrich, stole away to plot and plan to bring about the central banking system to take over control of US currency. They cleverly decided it would be called the Federal Reserve System. That system is designed to take all that the population can produce putting future generations on the hook to pay infinitely for a debt created by them “out of thin air.”

The Image of the Beast! – Nimrod

As of 2005 54% (3.6 billion people) of the world’s population considered themselves adherents of an “Abrahamic religion.” Christianity being the largest at 33%, Islam second at 21% and Judaism at 0.02%. All “Abrahamic religions” claim a direct lineage to the Biblical Patriarch, Abraham.

Jesus said, If you are the children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham. So let’s see how well connected these “religions” really are to Abraham!

The Valley of Decision

“Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the Day of the LORD is here in the valley of decision.” Joel 3:14

Reverence God

“Now therefore reverence the LORD, and serve Him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and you serve the LORD. And if it seem evil to you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods; For the LORD our God, He it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed: And the LORD drove out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt in the land: therefore we will also serve the LORD; for He is our God.” Joshua 24:14-18 Continue reading “The Valley of Decision”

Health Care or Wealth Care?

Leading Cause of Death in America

The American “health care” system is the leading cause of death and injury in the US. 1.6 trillion dollars was spent in 2003 by the American medical system, but rather than using that money to prevent diseases, it was spent on unnecessary medical practices such as cesarean sections, chemotherapy, antibiotics, and invasive surgical procedures that put patients at a higher risk of mortality and morbidity. Conventional medicine does not consider what is necessary for the human body to heal. American hospitals harbor every aspect that leads to disease rather than health. The environment in hospitals causes immense stress which adversely affects the immune system. Patients are bound to a bed in a small room, getting insufficient exercise with no natural sunlight or fresh air. Rather than feed patients with organic healing foods that would nourish and cure their bodies, they are fed highly processed, denatured foods grown in denatured and chemically damaged soil, and excessive calories high in sugar with little to no vitamins or nutrients. Patients are also exposed to tens of thousands of environmental toxins, so if they visit a hospital with one ailment they are at risk of contracting ten others. This so-called “health care” industry has little concern for health, which would prevent people from needing care in the first place. It is a trillion-dollar industry that has gained immense wealth from unhealthy people. American hospitals “cause more illness through medical technology, diagnostic testing, overuse of medical and surgical procedures, and overuse of pharmaceutical drugs.” (www.webdc.com – death by medicine )

What and When is the real Sabbath of God?

The New Testament epistle, Hebrews 10 states “For the Law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the thing…” This means that there is more than meets the eye when it comes to the Law of God and just as there is a Supreme Court needed to interpret the Laws of the land in the US, it is also necessary to have an interpreter of the Law of God to explain exactly what is being said to keep the exact interpretation.

From the beginning God spoke of the ‘Seventh Day’ after He had completed His work, He blessed and sanctified it. In Exodus 20, where Moses gives the Ten Commandments to His people, the House of Israel, he says this, “Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work… For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day, wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath Day, and hallowed it.” Continue reading “What and When is the real Sabbath of God?”
