THE SEED WAR

PART 8

 John 8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Let’s begin our study, today, with recalling some terminology from this study of the seed war.

The “Watchers” were a class of angelic beings (very probably, seraphim) whose task it was, apparently, to observe the development of the seed of man (the descendants of Adam) upon the earth.  They compacted together to “sin a great sin” by leaving their original state to take on a corporeal existence in order to mate with the daughters of men. They are frequently referred to as the “fallen angels,” though they are not exclusively the only angels to fall from their original estate.  (We will discuss that point later.)

The “Nephilim” were the first generation of offspring of the Watchers and human women. They were enormous.  Extra-biblical historical records state they were as tall as 450 feet. These were the “Titans” of Greek mythology (which we now know was an embellished account of actual events).  The offspring of the Nephilim up to the time of the flood of Noah, were also referred to as Nephilim; but they were not as tall as their parents, though still huge in size compared to man.  The Watchers and the Nephilim became the foundation of all the false religions of the world. They were the gods of the Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Assyrians, the Greeks, the Romans, etc. This is why virtually every pantheon of deities around the world bears such strong resemblance.  The stories deviate only to accommodate each peoples’ culture and history.

The Watchers were chained and imprisoned. Noah’s flood destroyed man and the Nephilim from the face of the earth; but it did not destroy any sea-based offspring of the Nephilim. After the flood, it did not take long before the giants reappeared and began cultivating nations and tribes of giants in the earth.  These post-flood giants were identified as having come from the Nephilim, but they take on a new name:  the Rephaim.

The “Rephaim” were “the living dead.”  The Rephaim were the disembodied spirits of the pre-flood Nephilim who reinvigorated and reanimated the bodies of the dead giants and were able to resume the procreation of their bloodlines.

There is one very important individual that we have yet to identify in our study of the seed war; and that is “the Serpent.”  Traditional Christian teaching sets forth the following explanation:  “Lucifer,” who was perfect in his creation, fell from heaven and became “Satan.”  (This likely occurred between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.)  Satan entered into the “snake” in the Garden of Eden and deceived Eve into eating the “apple;” and ever since, he has been at war with IAUE and man. These concepts are derived from Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28, neither of which passage has anything whatsoever to do with Satan. Absolutely all of this traditional theology about Satan is false. Christianity maintains a fairy tale version of this most important aspect of human history.

Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
                                                  
At the end of the Scriptures, we see a very telling verse that points us back to the very beginning of the Scriptures.  Here we see John identifying “that old serpent” (a term everyone knows refers to the serpent in the Garden of Eden), as also being “the great dragon” (a term most Christians have never contemplated), “the devil” (a term that does not appear even once in the Old Testament, but nearly 60 times in the New Testament), and “Satan” (a term that appears only 15 times in the Old Testament, 11 of which are in the book of Job, leaving only 4 times for the remaining 38 books of the Old Testament; and 34 times in the New Testament). One very telling aspect of this verse is the absence of the term, “Lucifer.”  If ever there was a time to demonstrate that Satan and Lucifer are the same character, this would have been it.  John provides four very distinct ways of identifying this character; but he does not link him with Lucifer.  That is because they are not the same character.

John 8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

A casual reading of this verse will only permit the traditional mind-trap to maintain its false concept of the devil; but if you look carefully at this verse, Yahushua clearly states that the devil was “a murderer from the beginning.”  In the Greek, this literally states that murder defined his nature.  It was how he was created. The devil was created an evil being.  He was created a murderer and a liar; and truth was withheld from him from the very moment of his creation unto this day.  I know this flies in the face of the gilded perception we have of IAUE; but IAUE is not afraid of proclaiming this about Himself.

Isaiah 45:5 I am IAUE, and there is none else, there is no Elohim beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am IAUE, and there is none else.
7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I IAUE do all these things.

“Satan” is not a name.  In Hebrew, it means “adversary” or “accuser.” In a courtroom, he would be the prosecutor, the one making the allegations of wrong-doing by others. “Satan” is a function. Quite literally, it is a class of created beings that were made specifically with a different nature and character than the rest of IAUE’s creation, a nature deprived of morality. They were made with a special purpose.  Throughout the Old Testament, not just these angelic beings were called “satan,” but all manner of persons assuming the role of an “adversary” are also called “satan” in the Scripture. It is a function, not a name.

Numbers 22:22 And Elohim’s anger was kindled because he (Balaam) went: and the angel of the Lord stood in the way for an adversary (satan) against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.

1 Samuel 29:4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow (David) return, that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary (satan) to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? should it not be with the heads of these men?

2 Samuel 19:22 And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries (satan) unto me? shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?

1 Kings 11:14 And IAUE stirred up an adversary (satan) unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king's seed in Edom.

Have you ever wondered about those verses in the Old Testament that speak of “an evil spirit from IAUE” or a “lying spirit from IAUE” (Judges 9:23; 1 Sam 16:14-23, 18:10, 19:9; 2 Chronicles 18:22; 1 Kings 22:23)?

This verse, generally does not give believers a problem.

1 Chronicles 21:1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

However, when we see the same declaration made in the book of 2 Samuel, we begin to squirm in our theology.

2 Samuel 24:1 And again the anger of IAUE was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.

In reality, all we are seeing in these two verses is that the anger of IAUE gave purpose to a satan.  It is not unlike when President Nixon said he wished someone ceased to be a problem for him, and one of his lynch men, Chuck Colson, went out and eliminated that problem.  President Nixon would never actually personally do anything; but his desire became a purpose for his hit man who was on staff to do just that sort of thing.

What about the “angel of death” that destroyed the first born in Egypt?

Isaiah 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

IAUE created satans for very specific purposes. The book of Enoch says there were actually five satans; and they were named: Jeqon, Asbe’el, Gadre’el, Penemue and Kasdeja. The Book of Enoch states specifically that Jeqon was the one who brought the Watchers down to the earth and tempted them to mate with human woman; that it was Asbe’el who provided the Watchers with evil counsel to convince them to go through with their great sin.  It was Gadre’el that taught men how to kill (he was a murderer from the beginning); and it was Gadre’el that led Eve astray.  If you need to put a name to the devil, you can call him Gadre’el.

This sounds consistent with Messiah’s description of him.

John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

This is his nature.  He did not begin as a perfect and wonderful cherub.  The devil of the New Testament was one of five satans…the one who is a killer.

1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

Interestingly, describing the devil as our “adversary” is defining him as an opponent in a lawsuit.  He is constantly levelling allegations and making claims against the brethren; and this is exactly what we see him doing in the book of Job.  He makes regular appearances in the courts of heaven to appear before IAUE and attempts to undermine IAUE’s children.  He is constantly seeking authority to wreak havoc upon the saints.  Heaven has been a courtroom scene for millennia. 

Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he (Yahushua) is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto Elohim by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

This verse does not describe Messiah as one sitting at the right hand of IAUE in Heaven “praying to IAUE” day and night for the saints.  No, this word “intercession” means “to take one’s side and argue a case for him.”  The devil is constantly accusing the brethren, and Messiah is constantly defending them.

Luke 22:31 And the Master said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan (the accuser) hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 But I have prayed (made a case) for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.


So, today, we examined what it meant for the serpent to be called the devil and Satan. Next week we will continue this discussion to understand why he is also called the great dragon and that old serpent.

THE SEED WAR - PART 7

WBS.247

THE SEED WAR

PART 7

Matt 13: 38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

In our last post we introduced an idea that, no doubt, is alien to what most Christians have ever heard in a lifetime of going to church:  There are races of men on the earth that are hybrids; part human, part Nephilim.  That this is true is indisputable from the Scripture. It is also a matter of documented historical records.

1 John 3:10 In this the children of Elohim are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of Elohim, neither he that loveth not his brother.

It is difficult for us, today, to visualize what it looked like for Joshua and the children of Israel to conquer the Promised Land.  They literally destroyed 31 nations, all of which were populated with giants…descendants of the Nephilim.  These giants were upwards of 30-40 feet tall.

Amos 2:9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

How were they able to accomplish such feats of unimaginable victory?

Exodus 23:23  For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off.

When they walked in obedience to IAUE’s commands, they were absolutely invincible.  One would put a thousand to flight; two would put ten thousand to flight.  It was one miraculous battle after another where an army no taller than six feet in height, conquered nations five to six times their size.  So great were their victories that many of the giants fled in ships to avoid annihilation.

Historical records reveal that the Phoenicians were great ship builders and sailors.  The Phoenicians were a race compromised by the Canaanite bloodline.  They were populated with giants who fled the destruction taking place at the hands of Joshua and the Israelites. First, they sailed to Sardinia off the western coast of Italy; and from there to every other part of the world.  (Sardinia, today, has thousands of burial sites of giant bones; and one marker that declares that they came to Sardinia to escape Joshua the usurper and destroyer.)

We also know that in disobedience to IAUE’s command, there were Israelites who intermarried with the Edomites and the Canaanites. In particular, virtually the entire tribe of Dan was compromised, so much so that they separated themselves from the rest of Israel.

Judges 5:17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches.

Much of the tribe of Dan, with its hybridized bloodlines, left Israel for Europe, Scandanavia, England and Ireland. They left numerous cities named after their tribe in their wake, as well as entrenching the bloodlines who became the royals of Europe who intermarried amongst themselves for millenia to maintain the purity of their bloodlines. The Nephilim have always believed their birthright was to rule the world. (You may not have noticed; but in Revelation 7 where 12,000 of “every tribe of Israel” was sealed from harm, the tribe of Dan is not included.)

Hybrid bloodlines permeated the Hebrew people; and they found a convenient home among the sects of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Genesis 49:17  Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.

Matthew 3:7  But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

Matthew 12:34  O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:

Matthew 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves…
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
  
Notice, Messiah is speaking to the Pharisees and states that THEY were the ones who slew Zacharias.  Messiah understood that he was speaking to the Rephaim who animated these children of the devil.

John 8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do…

Messiah saw clearly that the mixture of races, those of the seed of Adam and of the seed of the serpent, were present all around him in that day (hence his parable of the wheat and tares, and the parable of the sower).

Once you realize that the Nephilim bloodlines were not eradicated by Joshua’s overthrow of the Promised Land, you must embrace the fact they those hybrid bloodlines have continued on to this day.  Understanding this fact will unlock one of the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven.  It will open a whole new way of reading and understanding the Scriptures.  You will see things in the Scripture in ways you have never allowed yourself to see; and you will look at current events with a totally different perspective.  These bloodlines hate the Jews; they hate Adam’s race; they believe they have the right to rule the world; they believe they have the right to live forever; and they hate the seed of the woman.

THE SEED WAR - PART 6

WBS.246

THE SEED WAR

PART 6

 Matthew 13: 10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

I have heard though the years, ministers and teachers explain that the parables of Yahushua were illustrations that all the people of that day should have been able to understand because they were set in terms that were common to them: folksy down-home tales that dealt with matters that were a part of their daily lives.  Again, I have heard different teachers explain that they were deliberately profound and difficult to understand in order that the people would hear and not understand, and thus fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah.  I suppose both positions have their arguing points; but what I rarely, if ever, have heard is that the parables were designed to decode “the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.”  We also should note from our opening passage of Scripture that Messiah told his disciples, “it is given unto you to know,” so the parables clearly were not intended to discuss the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven in such a way that they should remain a mystery.

This word “parable” is translated from the Greek word, “parabole.”  It means “a metaphor or a simile,” to put two things in juxtaposition with each other.” (A metaphor is a figure of speech where one thing is stated to be another thing, i.e. “His fist was a steel hammer.”  A simile is a figure of speech that says one thing is as or like another thing, i.e., “Her countenance was like the early morning light.”) In the Old Testament, the word “parable” (mashal) means “a pithy saying, an ingenious comparison of two things.” 

Matthew 13: 34 All these things spake Yahushua unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

This reference to “the prophet” is taken from the Psalms.

Psalm 78:1 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

Now, if we understand what Messiah was doing in fulfilling the Scriptures, we have to realize that despite the fact his parables used common every-day illustrations, his “metaphors and similes” were not about comparing contemporary experiences with the obvious. He was openly discussing the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven which had been kept secret from the foundation of the world; “dark sayings of old,” ancient truths.  With this in mind, let’s take a look at a very significant parable.

Matthew 13: 24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

Notice, in this story, it was not obvious that there were tares growing among the wheat until the wheat “brought forth fruit.”  THAT is when it was apparent that there were tares. Why is this?  It is because tares ("zunim” in Hebrew) are a kind of wheat that is changed, both as to its form and as to its nature. It is a bastardized wheat (hybrid) that is poisonous and which will mingle with wheat and, given the opportunity, change the nature of the wheat to become tares.  The physical difference between wheat and tares is only evident in the grain it produces.  Tares produce a black grain.

Now, let’s look at the Master’s own explanation of this parable.

Matthew 13:36 Then Yahushua sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Within the context of the series we have been studying, this explanation is quite illuminating. Here we see Messiah explaining that the children of the wicked one are living among the children of the kingdom.  They can only be truly detected by comparing their fruit with the fruit of the children of the kingdom.

This is a revolutionary concept; because it is contrary to natural thinking to consider that there is any real difference between one man and another as to his/her nature; and yet, there is a hybrid race living amongst the “human” race; and they have been here the whole time. Ever since the Nephilim were first born, and their offspring did their very best to corrupt all flesh on the earth (see Genesis 6); and even though the flood was designed to eradicate them from the earth; their descendants, the Rephaim, survived and revived to perpetuate their hybrid bloodlines.  This is ancient knowledge that used to be passed down from generation to generation; but which ceased being passed down ages ago (See Psalm 78), hence, becoming a mystery…something to be revealed at a later date.

Tares cannot produce good fruit.  They can only produce poison.  This should help us to better understand these remarks of Messiah:

Matthew 3:10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Matthew 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

Matthew 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Matthew 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Matthew 12:33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.

Then there is the “parable of the sower” in Matthew 13, Mark 4 and Luke 8.  There were four kinds of ground.  Only one ground had the capability of responding to the “seed” (the word of the Kingdom) and bear fruit.  The people represented by the other three grounds are NOT the children of the kingdom.  They are tares. They are incapable of bearing good fruit because they are of a hybrid race.  They are poisonous, and their objective is to contaminate the children of the kingdom to prevent them from bearing fruit.

Jude 12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

1 John 3:10 In this the children of Elohim are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of Elohim, neither he that loveth not his brother.

Because the children of the devil look like the children of the kingdom, as indicated by the parable of the sower, the gospel is shared with all peoples.  We cannot know what kind of ground they are; but we are to be “wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.”  Remember from previous posts, Joshua was instructed to annihilate the nations that had settled in the Promised Land; because leaving any of them there would provide a constant source of temptation and contamination of the people of Israel, as they would most assuredly lead them into idolatry and depart from the ways of the living Elohim.

We observed from the Scripture how Joshua and the children of Israel failed to obey the commandment of IAUE.  Do you think that those who remained alive just ceased to propagate?  Do you think their descendants do not exist unto this day? Their bloodlines have been carefully protected; and there are prominent families in the earth today who know with absolute confidence that they are descended from these Rephaim; and they believe they have the right to rule the world.

A war is coming---a war of two seeds.
