EVICTION  LOOMS 

Dharma, my very heart goes out to you that you have to serve in the midst of life going on with its slings and arrows hitting the mark.  Readers, please allow this next to serve as confir­mation of the truth of the collusion and total lack of all justice in the now totally controlled ju­dicial system.  The attorney has called this morning to say that the court has denied a stay on the case of the property (dwelling) of Dharma and E.J.  This is without cause and none is of­fered—it simply states that it is “over”—the eviction notice will be legally served within 10 days.  After all the struggle and expenses it is too much with which to deal at this moment so let us allow for emotional stability before pack­ing the boxes AGAIN.  The world is hard, chelas—and basically evil beyond your imaginings.  I remind you regarding your own status in this “free” nation—you are already “had” and the full intent is to own, hook, line and sinker, ALL property, ALL as­sets AND YOU WILL EITHER BE DEAD OR ENSLAVED!  IT IS THE PLAN, THE EVIL BROTHER HAS CONTROL OF THE COURTS, THE LAW, THE LAWMAKING, THE CONGRESS, THE ADMINISTRATION AND YOUR INDUS­TRIAL FOUNDATION IS SHATTERED AND ALL THAT IS LEFT ARE THE FINAL COFFIN NAILS.  These people have put everything they had and were able to borrow into OUR work, into the WORD and into the services supporting that job.  The sums borrowed are gone as they were against the winning of the house and therefore recourse is minimal to zilch in time to save anything.

I have to tell you this because I cannot ask more of these two and with the problems and un­true concerns of ones who were badly misled, I will not ask them to give more into the “business” for assets of other parties will be assured.  I cannot postpone giving you this infor­mation for you must realize that at this time publications and/or the Liberator do not even break even.  Perhaps there are fewer on God’s side than you thought?

Every effort has been made to give service without thought to profits or anything beyond ab­solute “costs” and we shall con­tinue as best can be done.  I cannot see lessening the informa­tion flow but we must look at what we must face.  It is not lack of love on the part of you readers nor willingness to share—it points out what a good job the adversary has done.  You have either been convinced to go with “him” in your investments (wherein you WILL lose it) or you have searched and been drained of your own assets or any number of other reasons, all of which are valid.  Many of you changed your support to Bo Gritz and other necessary things and so we have a time of great difficulty which will not likely lessen as the chains bind tighter and tighter.  We will certainly go on at the paper as long as we can.  And, by the way, other things that seem to stem from here—are NOT CONNECTED TO PUBLICATIONS OR THE PAPER—SO PLEASE, DO NOT BE CONCERNED.  ALL THINGS, INVESTMENTS, ETC., ARE TOTALLY SEPARATED AND HAVE NO IMPACT.  MUCH HAS BEEN IN­VESTED INTO PUBLICATIONS, ETC., BUT THAT WILL NOT BE IM­PACTED IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER.  IT IS THAT THESE ONES HAVE PERSONALLY BORROWED THROUGH SUPPORTERS ON THE PROPERTY IN POINT AND THAT IS NOW EX­HAUSTED FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES—WITHOUT EVEN RESOURCES TO MAKE A MOVE—SO WE SIMPLY HAVE SOME HARD CON­FRONTATIONS LOOMING IN FRONT FOR MY SCRIBE/SPEAKER.  THIS IS NOT COMPLAINT, ONLY PETITION FOR PATIENCE AS THEY STRUGGLE WITH A PROBLEM THAT NEVER SEEMS TO SUBSIDE.  SO BE IT.  THANK YOU.

TO YOU EDITORS: PLEASE, sometimes I purposefully write thought-provoking statements and questions.  I ask that you not change them nor interpret them for the readers.  The READERS have a right and a need to think about specific things, even unto the titles of our books—unless “I” choose to make explanation!  This is NOT reprimand, just reminder that I often have a far greater reason for much of what I say than will at first meet the eye.  This comes to my attention for last evening E.J. tried to decipher and rewrite into more clarity, a statement I had just made regarding Truth.  Often the errors are present in typo­graphical mis­prints or deleted words, etc.  But I ask that you not decipher that which is intended for EACH to interpret.

As to the label of my book—I did not use the title SEX AND THE LOTTERY because of a cute conversation of you ones in a local restaurant.  I KNEW that Madonna was coming out with a major evil disaster and I needed to make a “point”.  No offense intended herein—but the information of explanation was not ac­curate, Ed, and never do we carelessly DO ANYTHING from this side of the veil.  But yes, I do attend ALL your meetings—even at Brewer’s!  I sug­gest you just leave this writing in the presentation for it needs no further explanation.  Thank you.

Dharma, it has been such a burdened week-end so far that I suggest we simply continue to write for a while on the subject of the “Beast” and then allow closing for today so that you can visit with your children come to share and the time is limited.  Of all ones I need to thank and apologize for such a heavy load—it is to you, precious, and I do not.  However, chela, I do not take thee for granted nor without honor and appreciation.  I cherish you beyond myself and, although you know as much, it needs to be said into your consciousness.  It is hard to even touch the appre­ciation and brotherhood I feel and experience with you ones who are never from my side and for you who work from afar, seemingly without note or mention save “within”.  Our tasks are so heavy and “time” limitations and “human limitations” are great.  I bend, not my brow, but my knee unto you ones—some­time I shall tell you the difference in meaning.  This is a far greater honor than bowing my head for this radiates glory—not shame!  So be it.

SEPTEMBER  MORN

This is one of those persons who endlessly serve and from such a distance: Doe Hill, Virginia.  So what does she, Carroll Ea­gle, have to do with anything?  MUCH SERVICE IN BEHALF OF YOU WHO WOULD GROW (ORGANICALLY) AND SHARE YOUR FOODS IN FRIENDSHIP OR ON THE MARKET.  She has struggled against the FDA and vandals, drug dealers and hosts of other problems to continue to serve.  She has even come from under her shelter of “individual sovereignty” to keep going in order to obtain a loan to repair damages to greenhouse, etc.  But she prevails and continues her task.

The products of her labor are beautiful and perfect and I would ask that any and all of you who effort to grow organically and especially if you “do business” of any kind with that pro­duce—contact her.  BUT, contact her with a gift of stamps, return en­velopes, etc., for the price of the phone call or such—for it is too expensive to simply have loads of inquiring mail and not have the wherewithal to respond.  She has had to give everything to continue her work—we want to HELP, not further burden.  I believe you will find she has a listing of services (products), etc., and I shall not offer to share them herein but I do ask that as our workers get into varieties of greenhouse foods—GET HER INPUT.  She needs the assistance—AND YOU NEED THE INPUT FOR YOU ARE NOT SOPHISTICATED IN THE MANNER OF PRO­DUCTION.  THIS is the way we join hands and “make it work”!

Now, for one last comment on supplements, etc: In our meeting (personal) yesterday, we were asked about various things I write about and suggest as possible helps for your use.  Hydrogen Peroxide was the first topic and I must again remind you: WE ARE NOT PRACTICING MEDICINE.  WE ARE NOT IN THE PRACTICE OF LAW—if I see something that can greatly help you “feel” better and have a bit of better health—so shall I tell you about it.  “CURE” is a word we do not use because it indicates we ARE practicing something without li­censing, etc.  I shall not be “trapped” nor have any of my people “trapped” by some “sting” types of inquiries as to that which we do.  WE GIVE WRITINGS ON MANY, MANY SUB­JECTS.  We do have ones who are willing to give extra service at great savings to you readers who wish to obtain items of which we speak or instructions where you might obtain same.  If any of these ones open a “market” for the items, you will be informed.  Mean­while you can get Crystal Life product (at least temporarily) through our people—for the request is either forwarded or a source will be listed in the paper.  I do believe that Survival Storehouse DOES offer Chlorella from a resource which will be a major part of the actual growing in this area as the project for same is established.  (address: 2810 W. Charleston Blvd. Suite G6723, Las Vegas, NV 89102-1921.)  Please contact them or THE WORD for information.  I do know that the price at pre­sent is incredibly low in comparison to anywhere else brought to our attention.  The product is fully approved and ex­cellent—we simply chose not to wait for full production in the local facility (which could take two to three years) for offering you this food product.  It is not magic—it is simply a “whole” product which offers good means of storage for survival needs and whole health.  The LIBER­ATOR, as such, is not in any such business—the LIBERATOR is a publication only.   Thank you for allowing me to speak of these things—again.

THERE MUST BE NO MISUNDER­STANDING OF OUR WORK HERE.  WE OFFER WHAT WE CAN IN ORDER TO SERVE WHEN WE KNOW THE PRODUCT TO BE EXCEL­LENT—AS WITH SRITEA—BUT THERE IS NO FURTHER INVOLVEMENT.  WE DO NOT SPEAK OF SOME­THING AND THEN NOT GIVE YOU A PLACE TO OBTAIN THAT OF WHICH WE WRITE OR SPEAK.  AS WE HAVE TIME FROM OUR SUBJECTS IN WRITING, I SHALL GIVE YOU SOME GREATER INFORMATION ABOUT THESE ITEMS WHICH AID GOOD HEALTH, I.E. LIFE CRYSTALS (CHONDRIANA), HYDROGEN PEROXIDE USED PROP­ERLY TO ENHANCE CELL WHOLENESS, AND OTHER THINGS WHICH ELUDE ME AT PRESENT.  I DO NOT THINK OF THESE THINGS AS “SPECIAL” SO OFTEN I AM CARELESS ABOUT THEM.  I SHALL EFFORT TO BE MORE AWARE AS I SPEAK OF THINGS FOR I DO REAL­IZE THAT YOU NEED INFORMATION OF THOSE THINGS ALSO.   MY ABSOLUTE AND TOTAL INTENT IS NEVER TO DO ANYTHING OR WRITE ANYTHING THAT WOULD CAUSE ANY SPECULATION OR FOCUS TO ANYTHING WHICH MAY SO MUCH AS APPEAR AGAINST LAWS, RULES OR IN ANY MANNER WHAT­SOEVER BRING ONES AGAINST YOU.  I EVEN INSIST THAT ALL WORKERS IN MY PRESENCE—HAVE NO FIREARMS OR WEAPONS ON PREMISES WITHOUT FULL LEGAL REQUIREMENTS—WE WORK FULLY WITHIN ALL REGULATIONS AND GIVE NO EXCUSE FOR BREAKING AND ENTERING AND DESTROYING PROPERTY.  WE DO NOTHING ILLEGAL, SUBVER­SIVE, HIDDEN OR CLOSED.  SO BE IT.  You as individu­als, of course, can do anything you wish but these are the agreements of the immediate persons who work in this vineyard.  By the way—the enemy has far more potent weapons to use against you so if your intent is to “defend” self against the “big boy” government/military, I believe you have wit­nessed in Idaho—and all over the world—that THAT is not the way to beat the enemy!!!  “THAT” only gives the agent a reason substanti­ated in court—to shoot all present, including YOU!

So, back to “THE BEAST”:

MARK  OF  THE  BEAST

(Continued)

AGAIN QUOTING:(mostly)  [H: Frankly, I am using a lot of “Biblical” stuff here so that you who consider your “Bible” to be your resource can feel more comfortable in my own iden­tity and presence.]

THESE  REMARKABLE  “BEASTS”

For this we go to the seventh chapter of Daniel (Bible) and here now is where we start get­ting into these remarkable beasts.

Daniel saw this vision himself.  He said four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse from one another.  As you know, the sea, as used in the Bible can also mean symbolically, the people in the “great mass”, “non-Israel” people.  So out of the great mass of non-Israel peo­ple, the gentile empires in the true sense, you have four great beasts, different from one an­other.

The first beast was like a lion and had eagle’s wings.  Daniel 7 verse 4 says, “I beheld, till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon its feet like a man, and the man’s heart was given to it.”

The word “man” in this particular sentence is the Chaldean word “enash”, which is derived from the same root as your He­brew word “enosh”—which distinguishes the non-Adamic peo­ples from the Adamic.  [H: This is equally as confusing and yet, readers, as I utilize a per­son’s material I am caused to use “his” language and interpretation lest all you readers consider me and our work to represent something it doesn’t.  I cannot interrupt to ex­plain every disagreement—for it is the “CONCEPT” which is in point herein—not the spe­cific wording.  I, for instance, would never refer personally to any type of description on my own as “Adamic” vs. “non-Adamic”.  It is a widely used description (incorrect) but you ones demand man-presented “truth” or you denounce my presentation.  I have ex­plained these points earlier in other writings so I cannot take time to pick this presenta­tion to pieces—I want you to get the “picture” in “concept” so that you can understand the “Mark of this Beast”, NOT WHO CALLS THEMSELVES “ISRAELITES” “ZIONISTS” AND/OR JEWS VS. GENTILES.  THAT IS AN IMPOR­TANT POINT THAT WE HAVE CLARIFIED IN GREAT DETAIL FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS—YOU WILL HAVE TO GO DO YOUR HOMEWORK, PLEASE.

[The author explains:]  So wherever the Adamic peoples are mentioned, the Hebrew word Adam is used.  There is also the word “ish” which means simply a male person of any race, and is used sometimes, sometimes referring to Adamic people.  But wherever the word “enosh” is used, it is speaking of non-Israel people and it is speaking generally in a rather derogatory sense.  By mentioning this Chaldean word “enash”, you remember that the Book of Daniel is written partly in Hebrew and partly in Aramaic.  The portions of the book that per­tain to non-Israelite peoples are written in the much more widely used Aramaic lan­guage, which was spoken everywhere, from Southern Babylonia on up through the Fertile Crescent, through Assyria and Syria.  In other words, it was spoken everywhere in Western Asia, other than in the earlier days in Palestine when the related but not quite identical Hebrew language was used. 

[H: My point is not to explain what this author “means”.  But what is happening here is that the word acceptable to­day is being avoided by the author because HE KNOWS THAT THE WORD “JEW” WAS COINED IN THE LATE 1700s A.D.!  THAT MEANS THAT THE ACCEPTED WORDS AS ERRONEOUSLY USED TODAY ARE NOT VALID—BUT HOW DO YOU MAKE THE MASSES OF PEOPLE NOW ACCEPTING THE FALSE WORDS UN­DERSTAND?  WE OF THE HOSTS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS WE RELAY INFORMATION TO YOU.  I CAN ONLY SUGGEST THAT YOU UTILIZE THE SUG­GESTION GIVEN IN THE PRIOR WRITINGS—GET A “BIBLE” DICTIONARY AND STOP USING THE WEB­STER’S VERSION TO IDENTIFY MEANINGS OF BIBLI­CAL WORDS.  IT WILL HELP—IT IS NOT A SURE AN­SWER TO TRUTH, HOWEVER, FOR SO MUCH IS CHANGED IN INTERPRE­TATION AND MISTRANSLA­TION.] 

Daniel’s vision of the first of these beasts that came out of the sea was like a lion, the ea­gle’s wings were plucked off, it was made to stand erect on its hind feet like an enosh man, and was given the heart of an enosh man.  [H: Can you see the already apparent interpreta­tion?  This indicates the “plucking off” or “stripping” of the flight wings of man’s own higher be­ingness into a trapped “thing” without capability of rising into his higher being­ness.  Right there you have the truth about the coming of man to your planet—as he be­came sepa­rated from his GOD-given capabilities of experience.  We call ourselves the “Bird Tribes” for we are your brothers who still have the knowledge of capability of “flight” by whatever label you call it.]

“And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, [H: Im­portant!] and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it; and they said unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.  After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, [H: Also very important.] which had on the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast also had four heads; and dominion was given to it.  After this I saw in the night vi­sions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.” (Daniel 7: 6-7)

Remember what was said about that fourth empire of Rome, the iron.  “The fourth king­dom shall be strong as iron: foreas­much as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all these things: as iron that breaks all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.” (Daniel 2:40)

Here again this beast had iron teeth, was terribly strong, it devoured and broke in pieces and stamped upon the residue with the feet of it, and it was diverse from all the beasts that were be­fore it.  So here again is a vision of the same succession of em­pires and again is mak­ing clear that this was Rome, by a simi­larity of certain identifying features and the symbolism of it.  Then the angel explained to Daniel the meaning of this vision.  He said these great beasts, which are four, are four kings which shall arise out of the earth.

Daniel said, “Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dread­ful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass: which de­voured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet.” (Daniel 7:19)  So the angel explains it. 

“Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon the earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.  And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and shall subdue three kings.” (Daniel 7:23-24)

Now you can go into some further symbolism in here, if you need to follow this up, but for the present we don’t.  We have identified previously these different kingdoms and this suc­cession of empires, so I am not going to bother trying to identify each of the ten horns, and so forth, now.  We have other things to cover.

Let us now go back.  The first kingdom was like a lion, and you remember, in the vision of the great statue, it was the head which was of gold, superior to the others in its degree of cul­ture.  Likewise the power, the lion being the most powerful of the great beasts, it was a great military power with high civi­lization, but with only the characteristics of the enosh.  They lacked in power the spiritual capacity of the people of Israel—with all their faults.

The second kingdom, you remember, was like a bear, and it raised itself up on one side.  Well, that is the Medo-Persian Em­pire, originally Media, north of Persia proper, which was the leading kingdom during the first stage of this empire.  And as they expanded westward, they first shattered with a sword the empire of Assyria, which was north of Babylon, and that was of course done under the dominance of Media.  Then Persia gained the dominance.  So it raised itself up on one side.  In other words, Media and Persia were not equal, they were the unequal power of two kingdoms in one.  It also says there were three ribs in its mouth.  It conquered and absorbed three great em­pires—Assyria, Babylon and Egypt—for identification here is unmistakable.  [H: It also “proves” the identity of the “Khazars” as we have given you over and over again.]

The third empire, the third beast that came up out of the sea of these enosh peoples, was like a leopard, and certainly you could not have taken a better symbol, with its swift striking, ter­rible power.  It says it had four wings and four heads.  In other words, already, while it was still a single empire under Alexan­der, it had in it the seeds of this break-up into four parts, and dominion was given unto it.  Yes, dominion it certainly had.

Alexander conquered all that the previous empires had ruled.  He occupied and conquered Egypt, then he went on to take over all that the empires of Assyria, Babylon and Medo-Persia had ruled, including portions of northern India.

 

Finally, there was the fourth one, a beast that was dreadful, terrible, strong exceedingly, and he would devour the whole earth.  Well, it covered all the then known world, all that was civilized enough to be known at that time, all but the eastern-most portion of the earlier em­pire.  Rome didn’t penetrate into Afghanistan, or as they called it Bactria then, or Egypt; but it had everything west of that.

Rome also had what the other empires had never had: it had all of Europe except Ger­many.  It had northern Africa, but was excluded from all the principal lands then occupied by the peo­ple of Israel.  It only overran England where the Israel people were as yet very few in number, because the bulk of the Israel people had not come into England.  There was just a tiny hand­ful there, before the withdrawal of the Roman legions.

He said this beast would break in pieces and devour all things.  Remember, Daniel 2 verse 40 says, “The fourth king­dom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaks in pieces and subdues all things: as iron that breaks all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.”

Then Daniel said this fourth beast was diverse, or different, from all that went before it.  It was.  It originated as a republic.  Now remember, while republics were known in Greece be­fore this time, they were small cities, they were not great empires.  This is the first time in all history that you had a republic rising to the power of a conquering empire.

As a kingdom Rome kept its identity in force after the death of even its most powerful kings.  The others tended to weaken and sometimes even break up, when a great and powerful king died.  But in Rome you had a continuity of the empire as such, for these many centuries.

This next vision now obviously concerns the same four em­pires, but now you have a tie-in with The book of Revelation, because you have these four beasts rising out of the sea.  As we shall note when we get to the Book of Revelation, where John was given a vision, it was one beast which rose out of the sea, but the one beast combined in itself the characteristics of the first four.  So obviously you have a connection there which can not be overlooked.

By way of more confirmation of this order, in the eighth chapter of Daniel, he was given another vision, of a ram and a goat.  He said, “Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, be­hold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.  I saw the ram pushing west­ward and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand be­fore him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.  And as I was considering, behold, and the goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground; and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.  And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran into him in the fury of his power.  And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with anger against him, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground and stamped upon him, and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.  Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven: (Daniel 8:3-8).  So the angel gives him the explanation of this.

Now remember, this is prophecy before it happened.  This is while Babylon was still at the apex of its power.  The angel says, “The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.  And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.  Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.” (Daniel 8:20-22)

This was written some time in the middle third of the 500’s B.C.—545, somewhere in there, and the fall of Babylon did not come until about 538 B.C.  So this was two centuries be­fore the rise of Alexander the Great.  Note again the accuracy of prophecy.  The ram had two horns, Media and Persia, both were high but one was higher, and the higher one came up last.  Persia was the one that came to power later, absorbing Media.  Concerning the rough goat, the cultured Greeks despised all Macedonians as being barbarians.  Of course the Greeks de­spised absolutely everybody else in the world as being barbar­ians, because they recognized only two classes: Greeks and bar­barians. 

Anyway, the Greeks looked down upon the Macedonians, maybe more than some of the others, because these were a rough, tough bunch, “And when he was strong, the great horn was broken”—Alexander died at the very height of his power, 323 B.C.

You remember, in the earlier vision of the four beasts that came out of the sea, Alexander had been compared there to a leopard.  I take this, that I am going to read now, from the “The History of Nations”, published by P.F. Collier and Sons: “Alexander was one of the generals who won by rapid strokes and daring expedience.  His long marches were perhaps the most characteristic part of his career.  Urged on by him, his army seemed to be able to annihilate time and space.  The ra­pidity of their motion was almost incredible.  He was on the spot when his enemies believed him to be still hundreds of miles away, and when once arrived, Alexan­der had an eagle eye for seizing the moment to strike.  He hardly ever made a mistake.  His attacks, however reckless, succeeded to a miracle.”

So Alexander is compared to the leopard.  The leopard is not a big animal.  It is terrifically strong for its size.  It is extremely fast, and it makes its attacks in just that way.  Now, “four king­doms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power”.  All the members of the fam­ily of Alexander the Great were assassi­nated in the struggle for power.

Egypt was taken over by his general, Ptolemy I.  Thrace, the old Macedonia and Greece, was taken over by Lysimachus.  Syria and Asia Minor went to Antigonus.  And Cappadocia and Paphlagonia, which were Eastern Turkey and the areas inland to the south of it, went to Eumenes.  And it says “...not in his power”, that is, it was not an orderly division of the em­pire, but each quarter was simply siezed by the local commander as his own independent act.  So, the accuracy of Daniel’s vision here is beyond question.  Now we are beginning to get into what the symbolism of this thing must in probability mean.

Let us turn now to the twelfth chapter of Revelation (Revelation 12:1-5): “And there ap­peared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.  And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.  And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.  And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.”

That woman unquestionably is Israel, because you have here a repetition of Joseph’s dream.  Back in the Book of Genesis, it says this about Joseph: “and he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, be­hold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.  And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, “What  is this dream that thou hast dreamed?  Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?  And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying” (Genesis 37:9-11).

The sun and the moon obviously represented Joseph’s father, Israel, and his mother; eleven stars of course, Joseph himself being the twelfth.  So now you have a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, upon her head a crown of twelve stars, and probably talking about “Israel”.  Then you read in Revelation 12:2 that the woman was about to give birth to a child, and it says in Revelation 2:5 “...who was to rule all na­tions with a rod of iron”, a child who was caught up to the throne of God.

Of course that child, it would seem who was to rule all na­tions is most likely the Christed child you call Jesus (Esus).  He was born of course, as we are reminded by Paul; He came, as far as the “flesh” is concerned, of the place recognized as “Israel”, of a tribe from that area.  And, so far as ruling all na­tions, we read in Revelation 19 verses 11, 15 and 16: “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.  And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and wrath of Almighty God.  And he has on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King of kings, and Lord of lords.” 

As to being caught up to the throne of God, in Hebrews 12 verse 2 it says (considering varied translations), “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”  And as Je­sus Himself says, in Revelation as offered in chapter 3 verse 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.”

END OF QUOTING FOR THIS SEGMENT.

May the peace of GOD go with you, chelas, as the insight comes into thine consciousness for though the way seems hard and cast with barriers—so shall the goal be wondrous.

Hatonn to stand by.  Salu.
