The Judge of all the Earth Pt.2

JUDGES 3:11-12

     11   And the land had rest forty years (40 years of peace – if you were born at the beginning of those 40 years, then all you would have known is peace until the 40 years were up). And Othniel the son of Kenaz died. (Othniel is the first of the judges in the book of Judges)

     12     ¶ And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD:

So there was peace in the land until Othniel died, and then in the absence of the Judge, the people of God did evil again.

JUDGES 8:32-35

     32   And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. (Gideon was the fifth judge)

     33   And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god.

     34   And the children of Israel remembered not the LORD their God, who had delivered them out of the hands of all their enemies on every side:

     35   Neither shewed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, namely, Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shewed unto Israel.

It is amazing how people forget the good that a previous generation has done so that they can live their lives in peace and blessing. The children of Israel remembered not the Lord their God who had delivered them out of the hands of all their enemies on every side – maybe they had not been faithfully taught by their parents, maybe time had erased their memory – and so this is why we need to be constantly taught and reminded, because as the children of this message, we can start to forget about the great things of how God delivered us out of denominations.

The Judge of all the Earth Pt.2

Let’s look at two more examples in the book of Judges…

JUDGES 10:5-6

     5   And Jair died, and was buried in Camon. (Jair was the seventh judge in the book of Judges – he is considered a minor judge because he is only spoken of in brief)

     6     ¶ And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.

Again, the judge dies, and they do evil again in the sight of the Lord.

JUDGES 12:15 - JUDGES 13:1

     15   And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites. (Abdon was the 11th judge who was the judge that came before Samson, Samson being the 12th and final judge)

JUDGES 13:1

     1     ¶ And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.

Forty years of peace with Othniel and the beginning of the book of judges, and now forty years of bondage.

**So from the first judge to almost the last judge, we have quite a few examples of how that when the judge is removed, then the people of God quickly turn to the gods of the nations that are among them, and begin to serve these gods of the Philistines and of the nation’s round about them.

***So last week we looked at the pattern and these repetitive cycles in the book of Judges of how that first the people of God rebelled against God through idolatry, then God brought judgment through foreign oppression, then the people cried out to God, then God raised up a deliverer (a judge), and then the people repented and turned back to God under that Judge.

And then as long as the judge was with them, they had peace in the land because the Judge would keep them in remembrance, but as soon as the judge was removed, then the people would quickly fall back into sin and the cycle would repeat all over again.

*That is why God has given us a fivefold ministry in this end time hour – to keep us in remembrance.

*And then we looked at how this same pattern and cycle that happened to the nation of Israel on a national level can also occur at a church level and a family level also, and even an individual level. We have all seen this pattern lived out in the lives of many.

**Look at all the millions of individuals and families and the nations of the world that once believed in God and in Christianity that have now turn from it and have now forsaking the Lord of what they once believed – and now they’re having to accept these drag queens into their school to teach their kids about there being 500 different genders – and then you watch what follows that.

JEZEBEL.RELIGION_ MIDDLETOWN.OH V-6 N-14 SUNDAY_ 61-0319

100   When God sends forth a message and tells the people, and they don't receive it, then He withdraws His servant and sends His plagues: famine, death, spiritually speaking, physically also. You watch for a depression, brother. You think you've seen something; you just wait after while. You haven't seen nothing. You think you're dying for a good spiritual revival; you wait till after a bit. You just wait, long and cry to hear the Word of God. The Bible said so. "There'll be a famine in the last days," said the prophet, "and not for bread and water alone, but for hearing the true Word of God." But that voice will be quiet in the wilderness somewhere, hid away. (He is speaking of Elijah’s voice, just like the Elijah’s voice of this day has been quieted by all the noise of the talk of this modern age)

He ordained the ravens, His servants. Bless them birds, His servants, that kept the voice of--of Elijah alive during the time of his--his isolation from the church. (That’s the 5 fold ministry of these last days that is keeping that voice of the prophet alive during this time of drought – and it takes all of you to believe it also – together we are keeping the ministry and voice of Elijah alive) The ravens brought him flesh and bread at morning, and flesh and bread in the evening, and he drank from the little fountain while the rest of them down there were doing without any spiritual food and water.

102   Then one day after sin had took its toll, and God has brought His people to their knees... Jezebel took everything; she wiped it all up; and she'll do it again. That's THUS SAITH GOD'S HOLY BIBLE. She'll do it again. She's right on the throne now, behind the figurehead, twisting it anyway she wants to; and nobody's going to stop her.

*So this is what we are looking at with this generation of being ruled and taken over by a Jezebel spirit again because this world has turned down a prophet of God.

Brother Branham said that when Jezebel was a little girl, that she was just like any other little girl that played with dolls and ran around the yard, but she was taught by her parents to hate the God of Israel and to love Baal.

Last week read of what Alexander Fraser Tytler wrote that …

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.

These nations have progressed through this sequence:

From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

*I want to try to explain something about the third pull ministry of the message that we are under in these last days of this great prophetic ministry that God has sent to us in fulfilment of Malachi 4, and Revelation 10:7, and Luke 17:30, and many other scriptures.

**The third pull ministry of Christ through the vehicle of His last day prophet’s recorded voice on magnetic tape, is the ministry that was prophesied to open to us the understanding of the hidden secrets of the bible that were sealed in the bible by seven seals, and these secrets (when made known) would reveal Christ in His full purpose of His attributes to His end time bride.

**The opening of the seven seals was the coming of the Lord in the way of Him revealing himself through the form of His revealed word reserved specifically for this last age.

IT.IS.THE.RISING.OF.THE.SUN_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-12 SUNDAY_ 65-0418M

308     He is the One Who opened those Seals. He is those Seals, for the whole Word of God is Christ, and Christ is the Seals that was opened. What is the opening of Seals then? Revealing Christ.

***So then because Satan wants to be like God, then we know that Satan’s third pull will also be the revealing of himself to his subjects on earth – the mighty Lucifer unveiled to his end time bride in these last days also.

**Satan’s first and second pull was the stage attractions of his Hollywood shows that attracted the attention of the people in order for him to then go on and reveal himself in his third pull ministry, not by the opening of seven seals, but by the opening of the bottomless pit through the 4th dimension of science and technology.

**So then Lucifer being unveiled to the people in this hour is in direct parallel to the Mighty God being unveiled to His end time bride in this hour.

**So Revelation 9 is the opening of the bottomless pit revealing Lucifer, and Revelation 10 is the opening of the word revealing Christ – both the tree of death and the tree of life being opened up in this end time age, and both are available for all too freely feed on their ripened fruit.

*And so both of these trees are accessible in this age just as Adam and Eve had access to these same two trees in Eden.

97-5   EPHESIAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.3

Now in the Garden of Eden there were two trees standing in the midst of it. One was the Tree Of Life, the other was the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Man was to live by the Tree Of Life; but he was not to touch the other tree or he would die. But man did partake of the other tree, and when he did, death entered into him by his sin, and he became separated from God.

**So fellowship was broken with God in Eden by people eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

But then this fellowship with God that was broken in Eden is restored in this age by a people eating from the tree of life again that they have been given access back to by the opening of the seven seals – and that is what this third pull ministry of this message is all about.

**So then we notice that the spirit that was on the prophet Elijah falls on Elisha, and Elisha types the end time bride of the fivefold ministry that has been given a double portion of the Elijah spirit of revelation, so then if we follow this pattern, we see that Lucifer also has his ministers that he has anointed in this day with a double portion of what Elvis Presley had back in the 50’s and 60’s, and a double portion of what Marilyn Monroe had back in the 50’s and 60’s – you look back at that time of when the spirit of God was anointing a prophet, and then look at how Satan was anointing his prophets and prophetesses also.

**Look at the advanced level of all the pop singers and actors of today; they have received a double portion of the same anointing of what we saw back in the 50’s and 60’s of the days of Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe.

*Brother Branham speaks about these two people because they were the parents of what we have today – they taught it.

**And so Satan is right now in the third pull phase of his ministry of the revealing of himself to his subjects in order for them to come into a union of a oneness of relationship and fellowship with himself - because he wants to take up his abode in the heart of man of where God was design to live.

**Satan (the god of this evil age) is impersonating the true God by changing his mask from an unseen spirit, into the revealing of himself in a many membered body of his devoted subjects of the people of the world of which he can called his bride body on earth (Mr. and Mrs. Lucifer), just as God is achieving a bride body on earth also that he can live through in this hour.

**So we must realise that this is Satan’s main program of this hour, is for him to have a bride body on earth, because this is also God’s main program of this hour also, to have His preeminence in His bride body on earth.

 

JUDGES 8:32-33

     32   And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

     33   And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god.

**So we have been seen how that in the book of Judges that after the judge passed off the scene, then Israel was overcome by the peer pressure of the culture of the people of the nation that was among them.

So when the headship of the Judge was taken away, then they submitted themselves under another headship that would rule and “Lord” it over them.

**It was the power of the influence of their environment that they were overcome by – and that is why we need the judge of all the earth to be with us in this hour, because you cannot stand in this evil age unless the Judge is with you – and that Judge is Christ Himself.

GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.OF.WORSHIP_ LA.CA V-18 N-2 SUNDAY_ 65-0425

78   And people worship the Devil, don't even know what they're doing. They worship the Devil in churches, "Teaching for Doctrine the commandments of man, creeds--creeds and traditions." I said...

**So from our previous studies, we know that this worship of these surrounding nations of Baal and Ashtaroth involved the temptation of illicit participation of ritual prostitution.

We see this told of in the account of Baalpeor, of when the men of Israel began to indulge in sexual immorality with the Moabite women”

NUMBERS 25:1-9

     1     ¶ And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab.

     2   And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

     3   And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.

     4   And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.

     5   And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.

     6     ¶ And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

     7   And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;

     8   And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

     9   And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand.

We also read of Samson (the last of the judges in the book of Judges), and we saw what his downfall was of the pressure of the fashion and influence of that hour – and of how that he fell for the beauty of these philistine woman and was actually involved with them in false union – this is showing us the influencing spirit of this day, because it is one of Satan’s greatest weapons of temptations of this day.

*So all these Philistine spirits of the gods of the Philistines that were back in Samson’s day are now manifesting themselves in the same way in this age - they are just as alive and well today as they were back in the days of the Philistines.

*That is why that everywhere you look, there are Philistine woman trying to tempt the Samson’s of this age again (a Nazirite that was dedicated to God).

*Look at Jezebel at the time of Elijah – a woman that painted her face to look attractive.

**So all these ghosts of those past ages have all accumulated here in this last age by the opening of the bottomless pit of Revelation 9.

These spirits of Baal and Astarte are alive and well today and a being manifested in the people of this age – they have just been given different names to what they had back then – just think of some of these well-known female pop singers and you’ll know what their names are today.

And notice how they are all connected to their Hollywood temples that involve the pleasures of sensual delights.

53-4   PATMOS.VISION - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.2

1. His Hair as White as Snow.

John first notices and mentions the whiteness of His hair. It was white, and as bright as snow. This was not because of His age. Oh, no. The brilliantly white hair does not signify age but experience, maturity, and wisdom. The Eternal One does not age. What is time to God? Time means little to God, but wisdom means much. It is as when Solomon called to God for wisdom to judge the people of Israel. Now He is coming, the Judge of all the earth.

**This is why we need to be under this great Judge of these last days.

**The Judge of all the earth that has come down and is present and alive with us in this hour – He is the mighty angel of Revelation 10:1 – He is the true LORD of the covenant - He is the living judge that is present with us in this age to keep us in remembrance – and He will never die because He is alive forever more.

And so this is why we must remain under the protection of this Judge of all the earth, because He is our only standard against the culture of this evil age that we are surrounded by.

**Remember that in this last age, you will be under one of these two Lords of the covenant. Christ or Baalberith.

**Look at all the slaughter that has taken place of the sons of Gideon in this hour by his half-brothers of the people who have left this message and are trying to make themselves kings over God’s people (we read of that in Judges CH:9).

They are gathering vain men around them, and are one by one killing the influence of the true sons of the message of the hour so that they will have no voice to speak and rule any more.

*But then look at how God has saved a small group of true believers in this hour that will prophecy judgement on this false group.

*So all these things that we read of in the bible are being lived out and interpreted by all the people of the world of this last age.

**The gods of the Philistines who existed in the time of the Judges are back here again in their full strength and influence in this last age, and the people of this age are blindly worshiping them, and they are becoming one with these gods – but then there is also a people that have remained under the headship of the Judge of all the earth who has descended in this hour – the true LORD of the covenant, and they are also becoming one with their God by feeding on the fruit that is coming from the tree of life in this hour.

**And so in this age, the true God is changing his form from the eternal spirit into a many member body of people of who he is readying for His final act of victory.
