That is what they want and it works good for them that way. Or at least it used to.
Man has been messing with God’s natural order and balance of creation for a very long time and now they have disrupted not only man, but all creation. Their desire to blow things up just to see what happens, is only second to their desire to play mini god games by geoengineering the earth to play Zeus god of thunder and Poseidon to disrupt the seas creating tidal waves, hurricanes, and all manner of climate change on demand.
Most are still oblivious to this and shout we must all do the stupid things that have nothing to do with science in order to save the planet…such as stop breathing and depopulate the earth to around half a billion people. And drive electric vehicles that take more energy to charge than gas driven cars. Eat bugs and kill all the cattle for they breathe out carbon dioxide to help plants grow. And destroy the plants in the process and take our literal breathe away doing so, for without plants we have no oxygen to breath in and we die.
There is a set order of the creation to keep it in balance. The stars who warred against God to overthrow His Authority were cast out of heaven. And some where imprisoned under the firmament, in the sky, in what I call star jails. For I don’t claim to understand the imprisonment other than what I can imagine from Enoch’s description of it.
I do know we are not to live by the seers of the stars and their council which is not of God. Remember the seers in Babylon could not decipher even the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, but Daniel through much prayer to God understood it. Nor could the sorcerers Janus and Jamres out perform Moses with the one true God who is our Father. Nor could all the priests of Baal light the fire on Mount Carmel, but Elijah sent by God called upon Him to do so and God did light it and Israel then slew all the priests of Baal. Most important of all – the gates of hell could not hold Jesus and our Lord of Lords and King of Kings tore them down and freed the prisoners it held just as he had promised to Adam that he would do.
The Lord declares, “You are wearied with your many counsels; let them stand forth and save you, those who divide the heavens, who gaze at the stars, who at the new moons make known what shall come upon you. Behold, they are like stubble; the fire consumes them; they cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame…” Isaiah 47:13,14 also Jeremiah 10:2,3; Deuteronomy 18:10-12).
The Fall of Babylon is sure and true.
Isaiah 47 “Go down, sit in the dust, Virgin Daughter Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, queen city of the Babylonians. No more will you be called tender or delicate. 2 Take millstones and grind flour; take off your veil, lift up your skirts, bare your legs, and wade through the streams. 3 Your nakedness will be exposed and your shame uncovered. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.”
4 Our Redeemer—the Lord Almighty is his name— is the Holy One of Israel. 5 “Sit in silence, go into darkness, queen city of the Babylonians; no more will you be called
queen of kingdoms. 6 I was angry with my people and desecrated my inheritance;
I gave them into your hand, and you showed them no mercy. Even on the aged
you laid a very heavy yoke. 7 You said, ‘I am forever— the eternal queen!’ But you did not consider these things or reflect on what might happen. 8 “Now then, listen, you lover of pleasure, lounging in your security and saying to yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be a widow or suffer the loss of children. 9 Both of these will overtake you in a moment, on a single day: loss of children and widowhood. They will come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceries and all your potent spells.
10 You have trusted in your wickedness and have said, ‘No one sees me’. Your wisdom and knowledge mislead you when you say to yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me.’ 11 Disaster will come upon you, and you will not know how to conjure it away. A calamity will fall upon you that you cannot ward off with a ransom; a catastrophe you cannot foresee will suddenly come upon you. 12 “Keep on, then, with your magic spells and with your many sorceries, which you have labored at since childhood. Perhaps you will succeed, perhaps you will cause terror.
13 All the counsel you have received has only worn you out! Let your astrologers come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month, let them save you from what is coming upon you.14 Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot even save themselves from the power of the flame. These are not coals for warmth; this is not a fire to sit by. 15 That is all they are to you— these you have dealt with and labored with since childhood. All of them go on in their error; there is not one that can save you.
So as we look to the scriptures to understand what is coming upon the earth… the Lord did say to watch and to see the signs and heed them.
When we continue to read in Isaiah the next chapter which the original manuscript had no chapters and verses but were all written to be read together and not taken into parts; The Lord declares in Isaiah 48: 48 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. (God is calling them out for their falsehoods in practice and deception.)
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The Lord of hosts is his name. 3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass. 4 Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass; 5 I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
God is calling the religious leaders all out on what they know they have done… they have called themselves the Holy City and did not follow the Word of God, nor accepted His Son that was sent and layed down (sacrificed) His own life for all atonement. They have followed falsehoods. And they are not alone in this, many who claim to follow Christ have also followed their false teachings and Host of falsehoods.
6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. 7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them. 8 Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
This is a very serious railing against their closed ears and own ideas. Sitting and writing up their own ideas which it is clear in this that God did not approve of at all. God gave them years of Isaiah and Jeremiah preaching to repent… and they did not… nor had they listened to Jesus, nor have they listened as a collective people, even to this day. But, this is so as planned until the time of the Gentiles is fulfilled. And the day is coming when they shall see and they shall hear and return to God in fullness of their hearts and true repentance. For that is also written.
9 For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. 10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. 11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? And I will not give my glory unto another.
12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. (The Lord is speaking to all His people here. Both the seed of Jacob and Joseph (the nations) alike. All those who have faith in Jesus! Come out from her my people! Buy from the Lord gold tried in the fire.)
13 Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together. 14 All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The Lord hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
15 I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. 16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me. (John 8:58 58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.”)
17 Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. 18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! Then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea: 19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me. (This the Lord speaks of their rejection of Him going whoring after other gods, and rejecting Him as their promised Messiah and even to this day looking for another in falsehood and whoredom.)
Clearly there are lizards and children of Cain and many who have a form of Godliness but deny the power thereof who have entered into both the house of Jacob and the house of Israel.
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob. 21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out. 22 There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
Isaiah 47 and 48 is a clear calling out of the past, present and future of those sons of Jacob and Israel who deny the Lord and go whoring after other gods denying the power of the one True God. It goes hand in hand with chapter 47, and chapter 49 continues to exclaim the fall of Babylon – both showing the growing of Babylon into Babylon the Great, and a close and far off look into the future shown to Isaiah. For the fall of Israel began then, and continued on and will continue on until the sons of Jacob open their eyes and see and their ears to hear. For it is written that they shall see and hear in the time of the end.
Scripture tells us in Daniel, while in Babylon, he found in the books of Jeremiah that 70 years would be their captivity and they would be allowed to return to their land. And that did happen. Yet, in their returning they did not know the laws, and the ways of God and the Temple and in their interpretations of what that all was, they errored and the rebuilding was put on hold and met with many issues before completion of the Lord’s house and the walls. There was much argument as to who was pure and who was not pure seed of the tribes and orders were proclaimed to put away their wives and those who could not prove their ancestry were cast out of Jerusalem and into Samaria. This cut their labor force down and caused much anger and strife among those who were cast out and called unclean and those who sat as though they were some pure clean seed. This was not what God intended for them, but this is what they did among themselves in their lack of understanding.
The books of Ezra and Nehemiah are well documented of their ideas and errors in understanding and the persecutions that followed because of it. The wars and destruction in Jerusalem are written in the books of Maccabees. These books explain the biggest war in the history of Israel and yet, it has been removed from our King James Bible. It also tells of the empire of Alexander the Great and Cleopatra and Mark Anthony and the appointment of King Herod the Great and the rebuilding of the third temple in Jerusalem by him. So technically, the Jews today are seeking to build their fourth temple, not their third, for King Herod the Great had built the third one already.
“Finally, God sent the prophets Haggai and Zechariah to encourage and support Zerubbabel (Ezra 5:1–2), and the work on the second temple resumed. Four years later, in 516 BC, the temple was completed and dedicated with great fanfare (Ezra 6:16). The Jews also observed the Passover (Ezra 6:19). It’s interesting that Zerubbabel is never mentioned in connection with the dedication ceremonies, nor is his name mentioned again after Ezra 5:1. For this reason, Zerubbabel’s temple is often referred to simply as the “second temple.”
The Temple of Jesus’ time was built by Herod the Great. Appointed by the Romans, Herod was king of Judea from 37 to 4 B.C. Read: The Majesty of Herod’s Temple – Israel My Glory
Because of this, the history of Antiochus Epiphanes—The Bible’s Most Notoriously Forgotten Villain has been removed and all but erased from history.
In the time between the return of Jewish exiles and the rise of the Roman emperors, the land of Judea was caught between two ruling powers: the Seleucid Kingdom of Syria in the north and Ptolemaic Egypt in the south. These kingdoms, were of Alexander the Great’s empire at his death when he divided his empire among his four generals and these two warred with each other for more than a century. An account of these is written in the prophetic visions found in Daniel 11.
Ptolemy ruled Egypt and throughout most of this period, Judea was left alone. However, when Antiochus IV came to power c. 170 B.C.E., the Jewish people became his little colony for his new empire. Antiochus embraced a Hellenistic way of life like the children of Cain, and worshiped the fallen gods of the Greek pantheon and the head of that pantheon was Zeus. Similar to the Pope taking over the followers of the way and declaring himself God on earth in God’s absence, Epiphanes declared himself, “God Manifest” and claimed to be Zeus incarnate. Many of the pagan nations embraced and welcomed these policies, but in the land of Judea they rebelled against it causing a civil war.
According to the books of Maccabees and the Jewish historian Josephus, Antiochus plundered the Jerusalem Temple and carried off the sacred vessels—to help finance his campaigns. This created an open revolt against him and each other. Now it got far worse after Antiochus had a major defeat in Egypt and he went to Jerusalem and slayed the easy targets (innocent people) and took control of the Temple and forced His Hellenistic religion on them placing a statue of Zeus in their temple and sacrificing swine on their altar. He forbid circumcision, sacred scriptures were burned, resisters were brutally punished and put to death. This was a time of great tribulation. Antiochus built a new fortress known as the Acra (literally, “the Citadel”) to consolidate his power over Jerusalem and profaned the Temple of Yahweh.
By these actions, Antiochus Epiphanes definitely fulfilled the prophecy of Daniel’s “Little Horn” and defiled the altar and the temple sitting in it saying he was god. That scripture was fulfilled and in order to pull off the Darby teachings dispensations to say that it hasn’t happened yet. I’m sure that is why the books of Maccabees were removed from the King James Bible around the same time of the teachings of dispensation.
Following these abominations, Antiochus left his generals in charge of Judea and went to fight wars in the East against the Parthians. The Jews went on to revolt under the leadership of the Maccabees with John Maccabee leading the charge and with God leading them defeat the Seleucids, winning back their freedom. This is what the Jewish people celebrate each year during Hanukkah, in memory of Hanna and her seven sons during the Maccabean revolt where she and her sons did not deny God and victory was given to Israel and the oil never ran out for they lit the holy lamp (the menorah) but had only enough oil for one night. Miraculously, the lamp stayed lit for eight days until enough holy oil could be procured. Now today, it is hard to find things that aren’t tainted with scholarly ideas, but the book of 2 Maccabees tells the story of Hanna and her seven sons. Read: 2 MACCABEES CHAPTER 7 KJV (kingjamesbibleonline.org)
But, for the legacy of Antiochus IV , Epiphanes as Zeus incarnate, well he suffered a defeat in the East and contracted an illness and died. Soon after this, the Seleucid kingdom crumbled. As all villainous tyrants he was remembered for his legacy of evil and not any great achievements. And for some reason, the modern day theologians of the world church sorts, don’t speak a peep of any of it. I wonder why?
That being said, in Isaiah Chapter 49 the scriptures continue to exclaim the fate of Israel at the time of their pagan worship before their fall in Babylon and far into a distant generation… and alas, futher into the distance unto their returning.
Isaiah 49:1- 6, “Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. 2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me; 3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified. 4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God.
“5 And now, saith the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord, and my God shall be my strength. 6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.”
Isaiah proclaims the prophetic words of a distant time and one that declares the coming of the Lord Messiah as He is the light to the Gentiles (nations) and the salvation for all who have faith in Him unto the end of the earth. In this verse it is apparent that the end of the earth is indeed reflective to the Lord and His Kingdom to come.
The Lord said to love God our Father with all of our heart, mind and soul and to love our neighbor as ourselves.
So if everything else is tossed, turned inside out, and declared wrong and A.I. moves in to rewrite the Word of God … refuse their evil and do the two things the Lord said to do…and call on the Holy Spirit to lead you. Faith is what you grow… and God will do the rest. I believe the Word of God shall withstand the gates of A.I. globalist KM Oligarch hell. Do you?
