When these Prophecies were written, mankind was limited in weapons to swords and spears. Yet, the Prophets of Yahweh were writing about weapons that produce powder and dust that come down upon mankind until they are destroyed. Guess what? We are now in the generation spoken of as having that power. Yahshua Messiah shows that when we see these things, know that we are in the end of the Last Generation, where fighting and wars still remain, but now nuclear weapons.
Bible Prophecy Proves Itself True and Trustworthy
If you just think about it, no man today or ever in man’s history has been able to foretell future events. That’s a fact that has stood for as long as mankind has existed. The number one difference in Yahweh’s Prophets and those of the Lords and Gods is that Yahweh works with them, instructing them as to what to write and speak in advance of its fulfillment.
The Savior, Yahshua Messiah, was in full contact with Yahweh and told His Disciples many things that would come to pass. He said that after these things came to pass, they would then believe that Yahweh had sent “Me”. Notice:
Yahchanan 13:19—
Now I tell you before it comes, in order that, when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He.
Yahchanan 14:29—
So now I have told you before it comes to pass, in order that, when it does come to pass, you might believe.
Yahweh’s Prophet Daniyl shows that Yahweh in heaven can actually show men Prophecy in dreams. In fact, He shows Daniyl four religions that would form a great army and become a world-ruling power. That world-ruling power was later known as the ‘holy’ Roman Empire. After the four religions, called Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians, had their Roman army destroy the temple, around 70 CE, and move all of the artifacts, including The Book of Yahweh, to Rome, they changed their name to Catholic. Catholic means universal. They called their empire the ‘holy’ Roman Empire.
Daniyl was shown that there would only be four world-ruling kingdoms. That Prophecy holds true even today, which proves Yahweh’s Prophecies True. There will not be another world ruling empire formed by rebellious men. You can get full details of these Prophecies in our books, The Mark of the Beast, Volumes 1 and 2. Also covered in Volume 2 are the four colors of the mushroom cloud shown by Yahweh’s Prophets and the fall-out dust that results from the nuclear blasts. Yahweh shows this powder and dust will come down upon and destroy all those who do not have Yahweh’s Protection.
The Savior, Yahshua Messiah, said that iniquity would increase and love would decrease in the Last Generation, causing the leaders of the nations to wage nuclear war that will darken the sun.
Mattithyah 24:3, 7, 11-12, 21-22, 29, 33-34—
3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the Disciples came to Him privately, saying; Tell us, when will these things be? What will be the sign of Your coming and The End of the Ages?
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences; disease epidemics, and earthquakes; environmental disasters, in place after place:
11 And many false prophets will rise, and will deceive the many.
12 And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.
29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.
34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.
Notice the cause in verse 12…iniquity. Iniquity is doing away with the practice of Yahweh’s Righteousness. It is sin and sure death. It is also the cause of hatred among people and nations, which is causing hatred all over the world at this time, as well as 41 wars. Prophecy shows that in this generation, nuclear war will darken the sun. Remember the cause is iniquity–doing away with Yahweh’s Laws of Righteousness. Notice the cause again in:
Mattithyah 24:12—
And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
So why did the whole world do away with Yahweh’s Laws of Righteousness? Notice the Prophecy of the fourth world ruling kingdom that fights against Yahweh’s Saints, Yahweh’s Name, and Yahweh’s Laws of Righteousness.
Daniyl 7:7-8, 19-21—
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and exceedingly strong; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces, then trampled the residue with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots; and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exceedingly dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his claws of bronze; which devoured, broke in pieces, and trampled the residue with his feet;
20 And of the ten horns that were on his head, and of the other horn which came up, before whom three fell__the horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke very great things, whose look was more stout; more mighty and imposing, than his fellows.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the Saints, and prevailed against them.
Verse 21, Saints? In Revelation Chapter 11, we see a Prophecy of the Two Witnesses, which sets the time period. Daniyl saw these two men in the time of The End, on a future day, teaching. After he was shown that, the Prophecies were closed and sealed until the time of The End. Revelation Chapter 11 shows the same two men Daniyl saw, the time period when the nations are angry, and the reward and resurrection of the dead.
Revelation 11:1-4, 18-19—
1 And there was given me a reed like a measuring rod. And the Malak stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of Yahweh, and the altar, and its confines;
2 But the court which is outside the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given to the Gentiles. And the holy city they will tread under foot three and one-half years.
3 And I will give to My Two Witnesses to perform their Prophetic offices, and they will foretell events about the one thousand two hundred and sixty days, those cast about with darkness.
4 These are, as it were, the two Olive Trees, and, as it were, the Two Lamps of the Seven Lamp Lampstand, ministering for the Father in the earth.
18 And the nations were angry, for Your Judgment is come; and the time of the dead, that they should be sentenced, and that You should give reward to Your servants the Prophets, and to all the Saints—to those who reverence Your Name, small and great; and should judge those who destroy the earth.
19 Then The House of Yahweh was made open for all to see in heaven, and the ark of Yahweh’s covenant was seen in His House. And there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Notice, verse 3 shows these two men teaching about the dark days ahead. Darkness?
Mattithyah 24:29—
…the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened…
Tribulation?
Mattithyah 24:12—
And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
Mattithyah 24:21-22—
21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.
Notice, the time period is the same as Daniyl saw.
Daniyl 12:1—
And at that time, one who is like Yahweh will stand up at Abel; Yisrayl, the Great Priest, who stands at Abel to teach Yahweh’s Just, Perfect Laws to the children of Your People; and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation to that same time. And at that time, Your People will be delivered, everyone who will be found written in The Book of Life.
The Two Witnesses
Revelation 11:1-4—
1 And there was given me a reed like a measuring rod. And the Malak stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of Yahweh, and the altar, and its confines;
2 But the court which is outside the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given to the Gentiles. And the holy city they will tread under foot three and one-half years.
3 And I will give to My Two Witnesses to perform their Prophetic offices, and they will foretell events about the one thousand two hundred and sixty days, those cast about with darkness.
4 These are, as it were, the two Olive Trees, and, as it were, the Two Lamps of the Seven Lamp Lampstand, ministering for the Father in the earth.
Notice carefully, Revelation 11:4 is referring the reader to previous Prophecies saying these two men are the Two Olive Trees. So what Prophecy speaks of the Two Olive Trees? Revelation 11:4 also shows these Two Witnesses are spoken of as Two Lamps of the Seven Lamp Lampstand.
What Does The Seven Lamp Lampstand Represent In Yahweh’s Prophecies?
In order to understand the Prophecy of the Lampstand and how It relates to the Two Witnesses ministering before Yahweh on earth, read the following information.
Seven Spirits-Horns-Eyes Revealed To The House Of Yahweh
Whenever anyone reads the Scriptures in the Book of Revelation, they are amazed by the amount of symbolism inherent in this book. We have just come to the Knowledge of Yahweh about the Tent, the Showbread, and the Seven Lamp Lampstand. Now, May Yahweh be Glorified through His Knowledge about the seven spirits, horns, and eyes, which He has revealed to His Only Prophesied Work in these Last Days—The House of Yahweh, prophesied and established.
The Seven Spirits Of Yahweh
In Revelation 4:5, we have received knowledge about the Seven Lamp Lampstand. In this same Scripture, we find this information about the Seven Spirits of Yahweh.
Revelation 4:5—
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings, and thunderings, and voices; and there were Seven Lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of Yahweh.
Reading this Scripture from The New International Version Interlinear Greek-English New Testament, by Alfred Marshall, Zondervan Publishing, Grand Rapids, MI., 1976, page 968, we find these pertinent Greek words underlined.
The word translated are in this Scripture is the Greek word eisi, word #1526 in the Greek dictionary of Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance, which is the third person plural present indicative of word #1510, eimi.
Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, on page 176, shows us this phrase in Revelation 4:5, translated which are, can be translated which signify.
A Greek English Lexicon Of The New Testament And Other Early Christian Literature, by Walter Bauer, The University of Chicago Press, Chicago, ILL., 1957, page 223, shows us this same phrase: which are, can also be translated is a representation of.
The word translated seven in Revelation 4:5 is word #2033 in Strong’s Greek Dictionary. It’s the word hepta, which means seven.
However, Thayer’s Greek Lexicon on page 247 shows us the original Hebrew word used to translate this Greek word which is sheba, word #7651, in Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance Hebrew Dictionary.
As you can see, word #7651, (seven) comes from word #7650, which has these pertinent definitions.
Reading the definition of word #7646, we find these meaning:
I must draw your attention to the fact that the only differences between the spelling of words #7646, #7650, and #7651, is that of vowel pointing. These vowel points were added by the Masoretes in the Tenth Century of this Common Era. Therefore, this one Hebrew word means seven, to be complete, and feed to the full.
The word translated spirits in this Scripture is word #4151 in Strong’s Greek Dictionary and has these meanings:
The Analytical Greek Lexicion, by Harper on page 331, shows the word spirit can mean the mind, or frame of mind.
Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon on page 520 gives this corroborating definition, showing:
Please notice what this word translated spirits actually means in Revelation 4:5. It means to propose to one’s self, which means to plan. Then, notice the last underlined words in this same source reference, which say power of knowing, desiring, deciding, and acting.
Yahweh is showing, in words of symbolism in Revelation 4:5, that He has decided upon a Plan, and is carrying out this same Plan; His Own Plan from the beginning. In His Plan, He will have seven different eras of The House of Yahweh, and His Last Two Prophesied Works will be established just before The End comes.
Therefore, Revelation 4:5, correctly translated, says:
And out of the Throne proceeded lightnings, and thunderings, and voices; and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the Throne, which signify and represent the complete Plan of Yahweh.
Praise Yahweh for this marvelous Truth! The Seven Eras of The House of Yahweh, represented by these Seven Lamps, are seven periods of history in which Yahweh’s Prophesied Work is established in the earth. In each of these Seven Eras, fire (the every Word of Yahweh) has burned (lighted) in these Lamps (The House of Yahweh).
In each of these Seven Eras of The House of Yahweh, Yahweh Himself has given His Complete Plan of Salvation, so His Own House can proclaim His every Word to all whom He has called out.
The House of Yahweh signifies and represents Yahweh’s Complete Plan to Yahweh’s chosen, called out ones. The House of Yahweh effectually feeds to the full those whom Yahweh has called, so they may attain the Everlasting Holy Priesthood, which will bring Peace to all the universe. May Yahweh be Glorified through His Plan from the beginning, revealed to His Only Prophesied Last Days’ Work—The House of Yahweh!
With the previous information in mind, notice the following:
Revelation 4:1-5—
1 After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened in heaven; and the first voice which I heard was, as it were, of a trumpet talking with me, which said: Come up here, and I will show you things which must be after this.
2 And immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a Throne was set in heaven, and One sat on the Throne.
3 And He Who sat there had the appearance of a jasper and a sardius stone, and there was a rainbow surrounding the Throne, like the appearance of an emerald.
4 And surrounding the Throne were twenty-four seats, and sitting on the seats I saw twenty-four elders, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.
5 And out of the Throne proceeded lightnings, and thunderings, and voices; and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the Throne, which signify and represent the complete plan of Yahweh.
Secrets to Understanding the Inspired Writings of Yahweh’s Prophets
Luke 24:25—
Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!
Mattithyah 24:25—
Behold, I have warned you beforehand!
Acts 3:19—
Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out; that times of refreshing may come from the Presence of Yahweh.
Isayah 59:1-2—
1 Behold, Yahweh’s Hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His Ear heavy, that it cannot hear.
2 But your own iniquities have separated you from your Father; and your own sins have caused Him to hide His face from you, so He will not listen.
I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10—
4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.
10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor!
Revelation 22:14—
Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.
The Prophet Daniyl was inspired to write that The Book of Yahweh would be closed and sealed until the time of The End.
Daniyl 12:1, 4—
1 And at that time, one who is like Yahweh will stand up at Abel; Yisrayl, the Great Priest, who stands at Abel to teach Yahweh’s Just, Perfect Laws to the children of Your People; and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation to that same time. And at that time, Your People will be delivered, everyone who will be found written in The Book of Life.
4 But you, O Daniyl, shut up the words, and seal the book to the time of The End; many will run to and fro, and knowledge will be increased.
The time of The End is shown to be the greatest time of trouble ever in man’s history, and the next verse shows it to be this generation filled with false teaching, but also a time for Yahweh’s Seventh and Last Work.
Mattithyah 24:14—
And this joyous Message of the Kingdom of Yahweh shall be preached in all the world from The House of Yahweh at Abel by the Witness Yisrayl; for Yahweh will be with him. He will preach this Message to all nations; and then The End will come.
Mattithyah 24:14 is speaking of the Work done by the Two Witnesses.
Mattithyah 24:3, 7, 11-12, 21-22, 29, 33-34—
3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the Disciples came to Him privately, saying; Tell us, when will these things be? What will be the sign of Your coming and The End of the Ages?
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences; disease epidemics, and earthquakes; environmental disasters, in place after place:
11 And many false prophets will rise, and will deceive the many.
12 And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.
29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.
34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.
From Daniyl’s Prophecy alone, you can’t see much, but without what Daniyl gave, you would not be able to understand the other Prophecies or the time table that goes with the other Prophecies concerning the last two planned Works of Yahweh. You would not know that they stand before Yahweh’s Throne as two Lamps on a Seven Lamp Lampstand.
The Lampstand represents Yahweh’s seven planned Works. The Seventh Lamp, the Two Olive Trees, the Two Branches, one of which branches out and establishes The House of Yahweh, the preaching of the Message of the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, are all described for this time period. However, they are not lumped together, they are written about by many of Yahweh’s Prophets, here a little and there a little. Notice now how Yahweh Inspired the Prophecies to be written.
Isayah 28:9-13—
9 To whom will He teach knowledge? To whom will He make to understand doctrine? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts!
10 For precept must be upon precept; precept upon precept; line upon line; line upon line; here a little and there a little;
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,
12 To whom He said: This is the rest with which you may cause the weary to rest, and this is the refreshing; Yet they would not hear.
13 But the word of Yahweh was to them precept upon precept; precept upon precept; line upon line; line upon line; here a little, and there a little; so they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Now back to:
Revelation 11:3-4—
3 And I will give to My Two Witnesses to perform their Prophetic offices, and they will foretell events about the one thousand two hundred and sixty days, those cast about with darkness.
4 These are, as it were, the two Olive Trees, and, as it were, the Two Lamps of the Seven Lamp Lampstand, ministering for the Father in the earth.
Verse 3 shows the time of The End spoken of by Yahshua. Notice the words ‘cast about with darkness’. Compare:
Mattithyah 24:29—
Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Now notice in this same time period, the Two Witnesses. Revelation 11:3 shows the Two Witnesses are sent by Yahweh to prophesy.
Revelation 11:3—
And I will give to My Two Witnesses…
This means Yahweh will give.
Revelation 1:1—
The Revelation of Yahshua Messiah, which Yahweh gave to Him, to show His Servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it through His Malak to His Servant Yahchanan:
Yahweh gave this Message to Yahshua, Who gives it to His Messenger (Malak), whom Yahchanan sees teaching about the Last Days cast about with darkness.
Revelation 11:3—
…they will foretell events…
To foretell events, one must be taught by Yahweh to do so and given understanding by Yahweh. That’s a Scriptural fact, which takes us to Isayah.
Isayah 28:9-13—
9 To whom will He teach knowledge? To whom will He make to understand doctrine? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts!
10 For precept must be upon precept; precept upon precept; line upon line; line upon line; here a little and there a little;
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,
12 To whom He said: This is the rest with which you may cause the weary to rest, and this is the refreshing; Yet they would not hear.
13 But the Word of Yahweh was to them precept upon precept; precept upon precept; line upon line; line upon line; here a little, and there a little; so they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Another Scriptural fact is that you are a fool if you don’t believe.
Luke 24:25—
Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!
Daniyl 12:10—
… none of the wicked will understand…
This means you must get this understanding from Yahweh through the One Sent by Yahweh.
Revelation 11:3—
And I will give to My Two Witnesses…
The One Sent
Yahshua Messiah said that in this generation there would be many false preachers/priests, and religious imposters. They’d be worse than ever before in the history of mankind in bringing forth iniquity.
Mattithyah 24:11-12—
11 And many false prophets will rise, and will deceive the many.
12 And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
The definition of iniquity from Strong’s Concordance, in both the Hebrew and Greek dictionaries, means practicing breaking Yahweh’s Laws.
Yahshua Messiah gives easy to understand statements to guide you away from the false teachers who teach that Yahweh’s Laws have been done away with. That’s called iniquity. Remember Mattithyah 24:11-12. Notice:
Mattithyah 7:13-23—
13 Enter in through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who go that way.
14 Because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way which leads to life, and few there are who find it.
15 Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity.
18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness.
19 Every tree which does not bring forth Righteous fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.
20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 Not everyone who says to Me; Teacher! Teacher! will enter into the Kingdom of Yahweh, but only he who does the Will of My Father Who is in heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day; Teacher! Teacher! Have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and in Your Name performed many wonderful works?
23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity.
This Judgment will not change, unless they repent and convert as shown in Acts 3:19.
Mattithyah 13:41-43—
41 The Son of Man will send out His Malakim, and they will gather out of His Kingdom all who cause others to fall away, and those who break the Laws of Yahweh,
42 And will cast them into a furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Then the Righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!
Revelation 22:12-14—
12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.
13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.
Revelation 20:11-15—
11 And I saw a Great White Throne, and Him Who sat on it, from Whose Face the powers of the earth and the powers of the heavens, including the Gods (elohim), were driven away; for the verdict was reached that there is no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before Yahweh. And the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is The Book of Life. And the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and sheol; the grave, delivered up the dead which were in them. And they were judged, every man, according to his works.
14 And death and sheol were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whoever was not found written in The Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
Mattithyah 7:23—
But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity.
In Strong’s Concordance we find the following information in Hebrew and Greek for the word iniquity.
The only way for anyone to have their sins purged or forgiven is to repent and be converted as shown in:
Acts 3:19—
Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out; that times of refreshing may come from the Presence of Yahweh.
Yahshua warned you of many false teachers; that is, preachers/priests, who would tell you otherwise in order to deceive, as the whole world is deceived today.
Revelation 12:9—
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.
Mattithyah 24:11-12, 24-25—
11 And many false prophets will rise, and will deceive the many.
12 And because iniquity will abound, the love of the many will grow cold.
24 For there will arise false messiahs and false prophets who will show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they would deceive the very Elect.
25 Behold, I have warned you beforehand!
Yahshua’s Disciples warned us also.
I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10—
4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.
10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor!
Notice the word Righteousness. Now read Yahshua’s Words in:
Mattithyah 6:33—
But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Notice, it’s Yahweh’s Righteousness, which is Yahweh’s 613 Perfect Laws.
Mattithyah 5:48—
Therefore, become perfect, just as your Father Who is in heaven is Perfect.
Mattithyah 19:17-19—
17 But He said to him: Why do you question Me about Righteousness? There is only One Who is the Standard of Perfection, and He is Yahweh; so if you would enter into life, keep the Laws of Yahweh.
18 He then asked Yahshua; Which ones? Yahshua said: You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not bear false testimony.
19 Honor your father and mother, and; You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
Yaaqob 2:10-12—
10 For whoever keeps the whole Law, and yet offends in one point, he is guilty of all.
11 For He Who said: Do not commit adultery, also said: Do not murder. Now if you do not commit adultery, yet you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the Laws.
12 So speak, and so do, as those who are being judged by the Laws of liberty—
Psalm 19:7—
The Laws of Yahweh are Perfect, converting the whole person. The Testimony of Yahweh is sure, making the simple ones wise.
Mattithyah 7:17—
Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity.
Tree of Evil? In the very beginning Yahweh warned mankind of the evil of God worship.
Genesis 2:9—
And out of the ground Yahweh made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight, and desirable for food. The Tree of Life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of Righteousness and evil was in the midst also.
Genesis 3:5—
For He knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as Gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.
They Hated Yahshua Messiah for Bringing This Message and Today, They Hate the Two Witnesses for the Same
Those who practice evil; that is, sin taught and influenced by Satan and the Gods you just read about are the ones who hate the teaching of Righteousness.
The Two Trees
Genesis 2:9—
And out of the ground Yahweh made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight, and desirable for food. The Tree of Life was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of Righteousness and evil was in the midst also.
Genesis 3:5
For He knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as Gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.
Evil Like the Gods
All the world worships Gods today. The Two Witnesses worship Yahweh by teaching His Laws, and the world hates them, as it hated Yahshua Messiah.
Yahchanan 3:20—
For every one who practices evil hates the Light, and neither comes to the Light for fear his deeds would be exposed.
Those who practice sin hate Yahweh’s Laws and the one prophesied to teach them.
Yahchanan 3:20, Light? Notice:
Psalm 119:105, 130—
105 Your Law is a lamp to our feet, and a Light to our path.
130 The unfolding of Your Laws gives light; they give understanding to the simple.
Mattithyah 5:14—
You are the light of the world. A city which is set on a hill, cannot be hidden.
Yahshua’s Disciples taught and practiced Yahweh’s Laws. They called on all people everywhere to repent and be converted so their sins could be blotted out. Practicing Yahweh’s Righteousness is taught by the Two Witnesses.
Mattithyah 6:33—
But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Acts 3:19—
Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out; that times of refreshing may come from the Presence of Yahweh.
I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8—
4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.
Revelation 22:14—
Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.
Notice again:
Yahchanan 3:20—
For every one who practices evil hates the Light, and neither comes to the Light for fear his deeds would be exposed.
Those who practice sin hate Yahweh’s Laws and the one prophesied to teach them. The hatred that develops in those who hate Righteousness should not be taken lightly in this generation. Wars are being fought now that the armed forces intelligence knows are religious wars. Prophecy shows that Satan, who deceives the whole world, makes war against Yahweh’s Saints and all forms of Holiness. Yahweh’s Saints are not shown to be popes or pharaohs. In fact, True Saints are just the opposite. True Saints keep Yahweh’s Commandments.
Revelation 14:12—
In this manner are the Saints purified—by keeping the Laws of Yahweh, in conformity with the Faith, as Yahshua Messiah.
Revelation 12:17—
And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went to make war with those who forsook her seed; her seed being those who keep the Laws of Yahweh, and have the Testimony of Yahshua Messiah.
The popes of the Roman Catholic Church were called Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians in Yahshua’s time on earth. They were the four religions shown in Daniyl 7, whose army stood on their part and destroyed the temple that was once called The House of Yahweh.
Daniyl 11:31—
And the army will stand on his part, and they will pollute the sanctuary of strength, and will take away the daily, and they will place the Lord of heaven.
After the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians made their move to Rome, they sent their Roman general, Titus, to destroy the temple and move its artifacts to Rome. Note the following history.
In the days of the Great Prophet Yeremyah, the priests/prophets, called later Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians, were trying to rid the world of the Righteousness of Yahweh. They actually caused the people to forget the Name, Yahweh, and to worship lords/the lord and Gods/the God, which is the reason the temple was no longer called The House of Yahweh.
Yeremyah 23:26-27—
26 How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies? Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own minds;
27 Who devise; plan and scheme, to cause My People to forget My Name through their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbor, just as their fathers have forgotten My Name for baal; lord.
They took over all services of the temple by force and violence.
Mattithyah 11:12—
And from the days of the Prophets until now, the Work of Yahweh at The House of Yahweh has suffered from violence, for violent men take them by force.
These are the descendants of those who rose up against Samuyl in rejection of Yahweh.
I Samuyl 8:4-9—
4 Then all the elders of Israyl gathered together and approached Samuyl when he was at Ramah,
5 Saying to him; You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Appoint us a king to judge us; just like all the other nations.
6 But these things displeased Samuyl, especially when they said; Give us a king to judge us. Then Samuyl prayed to Yahweh.
7 Yahweh answered Samuyl, and said: Listen to all the words the people speak to you, for they have not rejected you; they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.
8 Just as they have done to Me from the day I brought them out of Egypt, to this very day, they are now doing to you__they are forsaking Me in order to serve God(s); elohim!
9 So, listen to them. However, solemnly forewarn them and let them know how the king who will reign over them will behave toward them.
Notice in verse 7, they rejected Yahweh, that He should not reign over them. Yahweh reigns over His People by giving them His Laws of Righteousness. Yahshua Messiah said in:
Mattithyah 6:33—
But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
So the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians and all nations today have actually rejected every part of Yahweh’s Kingdom and His Righteousness. They had been doing this ever since the days of Mosheh, who brought them out of Egypt. Notice, their children were still in charge in the days of the Disciples.
Acts 7:35-39, 42-43—
35 This Mosheh whom they rejected, saying: Who made you a ruler and a judge? is the one Yahweh sent to be a ruler and a deliverer, by the hand of the malak who appeared to him in the bush.
36 He brought them out, after he had showed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 This is that Mosheh, who said to the children of Israyl: Yahweh your Father will raise up for you a Prophet like me, from your brothers. Him you will hear.
38 This is he, who was among the called out ones in the wilderness with the malak who spoke to him on Mount Sinai; and with our fathers, who received the doctrine of life to give to us,
39 Whom our fathers would not obey, but they rejected him. So in their hearts they turned back to Egypt,
42 Then Yahweh turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven, just as it is written in the book of the Prophets: Was it to Me you brought sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israyl?
43 No! But you have lifted up the idolatrous temple of Molech; your god (el), and Chiun your star-god (el); Saturn, the star of your God (el) which you made for yourselves. And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
Beyond Babylon are the seven hills of Rome which is where the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians moved to. The events in Acts 7 took place around 33 CE. The Prophecy Stephen gave took about 37 years to complete. Around 70 CE, the temple in Yerusalem was completely destroyed and all the artifacts were moved to Rome.
Around 60 CE, after Shaul’s conversion, he wrote the Book of Romans, showing why Yahweh took the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians out of Israyl, far away, to Rome. He still had House of Yahweh children in the land of Israyl, which was vital to the Last Days’ planned Seventh Work of Yahweh. Notice the Prophecy.
Mattithyah 21:23, 42-46—
23 And when He came into the sacred precincts, the chief priests and elders of the people came to Him as He was teaching, and said; By what authority are You doing these things? and: Who gave You this authority?
42 Yahshua said to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures; The stone which the builders rejected, has become the Headstone of the corner? This is Yahweh’s doing! It is marvelous in our eyes!?
43 Therefore I say to you: The Kingdom of Yahweh will be taken from you, and given to a people of the same habit, but from a foreign land; and they will bring forth the fruits of it.
44 And whoever falls on this stone will be broken; and on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.
45 Now when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard His parables, they perceived that He spoke about them;
46 But when they sought to lay hands on Him, they feared the multitudes, because they regarded Him as a prophet.
The Kingdom of Yahweh was taken from them and will be given soon to Yahshua Messiah. Notice why.
Romans 1:21-22—
21 Because that, when they knew Yahweh, they did not glorify Him as Father, nor were thankful, but became idolatrous; godworshipers (worshipers of elohim), in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools; simpletons,
Remember Yahshua’s Words in:
Luke 24:25—
Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!
They still do not want Yahweh’s Righteousness. Even today it’s rejected by all God worshippers. Back to:
Romans 1:23-24—
23 And exchanged the glory of the uncorruptible Father for images, made to resemble corruptible man, and birds, four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
24 Therefore, Yahweh also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own minds, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:
This is still practiced today in the Vatican; children, especially young boys, are suffering rape. It’s broadcast daily with nothing being done to stop their evil.
Romans 1:25-27—
25 Who exchanged the Truth of Yahweh for the lie; lords (baalim), Gods, Goddesses (elohim) and demons, and worshiped and served the creation, rather than the Creator, Who is blessed forever. Praise Yahweh! HalleluYahweh!
26 For this reason Yahweh gave them up to degrading passions: for even their women exchanged the original use into that which is against the original.
27 And the men did the same thing: leaving the original use of the woman, they burned in their lusts for one another; men committing shameful acts with men, and suffering in their own bodies the penalty for their error, which is their fitting retribution.
Verse 27 is speaking of sodomy.
Yeremyah 23:14-15—
14 I have also seen in the prophets of Yerusalem a horrible thing__they commit adultery and walk in lies; they turn from Yahweh and follow after the Gods (elohim)! They also strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns back from his wickedness. All of them are like Sodom to Me, and her inhabitants are like Gomorrah.
15 Therefore, this is what Yahweh our Father says concerning these prophets; Behold, they will be fed with wormwood, and they will be made to drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Yerusalem profaneness has gone out into all the world.
Romans 1:28-31—
28 And so, since they did not like to retain Yahweh in their knowledge, it came to pass that they were given over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not proper;
29 Causing to arise all unrighteousness, sexual impurity, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are great slanderers,
30 Backbiters; slanderers, haters of Yahweh, despiteful, arrogant, and boastful. They are inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 And without understanding. They are covenant-breakers, without original affection, implacable; truce breakers, and unmerciful:
Notice verse 31, they are without understanding. Daniyl 12:10 says none of the wicked will understand.
Romans 1:32—
Who, knowing the Righteous Judgment of Yahweh, that those who practice such things deserve death, not only continue to do these very things, but also approve of those who practice them.
This was the Apostle Shaul’s (Paul) book written to those in Rome. Another letter from the Apostle Shaul to the twelve tribes in Rome was I Corinthians.
I Corinthians 6:9-10—
9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of Yahweh? Do not deceive yourselves. Neither fornicators, nor godworshipers (worshipers of elohim), nor adulterers, nor men who commit sexual perversions with boys, nor men who commit sexual perversions with other men,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, will inherit the Kingdom of Yahweh.
The Apostle Shaul was there hearing Stephen’s speech and saw them stone Stephen, which showed much hatred on Shaul’s part. He was a Roman soldier. Stephen’s speech to the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians was about twenty-seven years before they finished moving to Rome and would destroy The House of Yahweh that they called the temple.
Acts 7:51-53, 59-60—
51 You stiffnecked; stubborn, and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You do always resist Spirit Holy! Just as your fathers did, so you do also!
52 Which of the Prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain those who foretold the coming of the Just One; of Whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers—
53 You, who have received the Laws as they were ordained and delivered by Malakim, have not kept them!
59 And they stoned Stephen, who was calling upon Yahweh, and saying; Savior Yahweh, receive my spirit!
60 Then he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice; Yahweh, do not hold them responsible for this sin! And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
Acts 8:1—
And Shaul gave his approval to the murder of Stephen. Now on that day there began a great persecution against the called out ones who were at Yerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Yahdah and Samaria—except the Apostles.
Shaul was a Roman soldier who persecuted all who called with the Name of Yahweh–the Disciples of Yahshua and their followers–before Yahshua appeared to him, and he repented and converted. As a Roman soldier, from whom did he get his authority? From the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians who owned this great army. Remember Daniyl 11:31.
Acts 9:13-14—
13 Then Chananyah answered; Yahweh, I have heard by many about this man, how much evil he has done to Your Saints at Yerusalem.
14 And here he has authority from the chief priests to arrest all who call with Your Name.
Remember the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians caused the people to forget Yahweh.
Yeremyah 23:26-27—
26 How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies? Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own minds;
27 Who devise; plan and scheme, to cause My People to forget My Name through their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbor, just as their fathers have forgotten My Name for baal; lord.
The Book of Yahweh was the name by which the Inspired Scriptures were called.
Isayah 34:16—
Search out The Book Of Yahweh, and read. Not one of these will be neglected. For it is written: Yahweh is their Shepherd; they shall not want; for His Mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them.
The Book of Yahweh was taken to Rome by general Titus, but it was hated, just as Yahweh and Yahshua were hated. For 1,500 years the popes would not allow The Book of Yahweh to be printed. That was all to change because of the Prophecy of the Two Witnesses and the Last Prophesied Work of Yahweh in this generation. Remember, Yahweh gave to His Two Witnesses.
Revelation 11:1-3—
1 And there was given me a reed like a measuring rod. And the Malak stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of Yahweh, and the altar, and its confines;
2 But the court which is outside the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given to the Gentiles. And the holy city they will tread under foot three and one-half years.
3 And I will give to My Two Witnesses to perform their Prophetic offices, and they will foretell events about the one thousand two hundred and sixty days, those cast about with darkness.
The temple was destroyed around 70 CE. The Book of Yahweh was taken to Rome by the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians, who later called themselves catholics, meaning universal; showing they worshipped all Gods. Notice the dates of when the Holy Scriptures were finally allowed to reach the public’s hands.
English Bible History
The first hand-written English language Bible manuscripts were produced in the 1380’s AD by John Wycliffe, an Oxford professor, scholar, and theologian. Wycliffe, (also spelled “Wycliff” & “Wyclif”), was well-known throughout Europe for his opposition to the teaching of the organized Church, which he believed to be contrary to the Bible. With the help of his followers, called the Lollards, and his assistant Purvey, and many other faithful scribes, Wycliffe produced dozens of English language manuscript copies of the scriptures. They were translated out of the Latin Vulgate, which was the only source text available to Wycliffe. The Pope was so infuriated by his teachings and his translation of the Bible into English, that 44 years after Wycliffe had died, he ordered the bones to be dug-up, crushed, and scattered in the river!
One of Wycliffe’s followers, John Hus, actively promoted Wycliffe’s ideas: that people should be permitted to read the Bible in their own language, and they should oppose the tyranny of the Roman church that threatened anyone possessing a non-Latin Bible with execution. Hus was burned at the stake in 1415, with Wycliffe’s manuscript Bibles used as kindling for the fire. …in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his famous 95 Theses of Contention (a list of 95 issues of heretical theology and crimes of the Roman Catholic Church) into the church door at Wittenberg. Martin Luther went on to be the first person to translate and publish the Bible in the commonly-spoken dialect of the German people; a translation more appealing than previous German Biblical translations.
In the 1490’s another Oxford professor, and the personal physician to King Henry the 7th and 8th, Thomas Linacre, decided to learn Greek. After reading the Gospels in Greek, and comparing it to the Latin Vulgate, he wrote in his diary, “Either this (the original Greek) is not the Gospel… or we are not Christians.” The Latin had become so corrupt that it no longer even preserved the message of the Gospel… yet the Church still threatened to kill anyone who read the scripture in any language other than Latin… though Latin was not an original language of the scriptures.
In 1496, John Colet, another Oxford professor and the son of the Mayor of London, started reading the New Testament in Greek and translating it into English for his students at Oxford, and later for the public at Saint Paul’s Cathedral in London. The people were so hungry to hear the Word of God in a language they could understand, that within six months there were 20,000 people packed in the church and at least that many outside trying to get in!
In considering the experiences of Linacre and Colet, the great scholar Erasmus was so moved to correct the corrupt Latin Vulgate, that in 1516, with the help of printer John Froben, he published a Greek-Latin Parallel New Testament. The Latin part was not the corrupt Vulgate, but his own fresh rendering of the text from the more accurate and reliable Greek, which he had managed to collate from a half-dozen partial old Greek New Testament manuscripts he had acquired. This milestone was the first non-Latin Vulgate text of the scripture to be produced in a millennium… and the first ever to come off a printing press. The 1516 Greek-Latin New Testament of Erasmus further focused attention on just how corrupt and inaccurate the Latin Vulgate had become, and how important it was to go back and use the original Greek (New Testament) and original Hebrew (Old Testament) languages to maintain accuracy… and to translate them faithfully into the languages of the common people, whether that be English, German, or any other tongue. No sympathy for this “illegal activity” was to be found from Rome… even as the words of Pope Leo X’s declaration that “the fable of Christ was quite profitable to him” continued through the years to infuriate the people of God.
William Tyndale was the Captain of the Army of Reformers, and was their spiritual leader. Tyndale holds the distinction of being the first man to ever print the New Testament in the English language. … in 1525-1526 the Tyndale New Testament became the first printed edition of the scripture in the English language.
They were burned as soon as the Bishop could confiscate them, but copies trickled through and actually ended up in the bedroom of King Henry VIII. The more the King and Bishop resisted its distribution, the more fascinated the public at large became. The church declared it contained thousands of errors as they torched hundreds of New Testaments confiscated by the clergy, while in fact, they burned them because they could find no errors at all. One risked death by burning if caught in mere possession of Tyndale’s forbidden books.
Having God’s Word available to the public in the language of the common man, English, would have meant disaster to the church. No longer would they control access to the scriptures. If people were able to read the Bible in their own tongue, the church’s income and power would crumble. They could not possibly continue to get away with selling indulgences (the forgiveness of sins) or selling the release of loved ones from a church-manufactured “Purgatory”. People would begin to challenge the church’s authority if the church were exposed as frauds and thieves. The contradictions between what God’s Word said, and what the priests taught, would open the public’s eyes and the truth would set them free from the grip of fear that the institutional church held. The veneration of church-canonized Saints and Mary would be called into question. The availability of the scriptures in English was the biggest threat imaginable to the wicked church. Neither side would give up without a fight.
Ironically, Tyndale’s biggest customer was the King’s men, who would buy up every copy available to burn them… and Tyndale used their money to print even more! In the end, Tyndale was caught: betrayed by an Englishman that he had befriended. Tyndale was incarcerated for 500 days before he was strangled and burned at the stake in 1536. Myles Coverdale and John “Thomas Matthew” Rogers had remained loyal disciples the last six years of Tyndale’s life, and they carried the English Bible project forward and even accelerated it. Coverdale finished translating the Old Testament, and in 1535 he printed the first complete Bible in the English language, making use of Luther’s German text and the Latin as sources. Thus, the first complete English Bible was printed on October 4, 1535, and is known as the Coverdale Bible.
In 1539, Thomas Cranmer, the Archbishop of Canterbury, hired Myles Coverdale at the bequest of King Henry VIII to publish the “Great Bible”. It became the first English Bible authorized for public use, as it was distributed to every church, chained to the pulpit, and a reader was even provided so that the illiterate could hear the Word of God in plain English.
In the 1550’s, the Church at Geneva, Switzerland, was very sympathetic to the reformer refugees and was one of only a few safe havens for a desperate people. the great Reformer of the Scottish Church, the Church of Geneva determined to produce a Bible that would educate their families while they continued in exile.
The New Testament was completed in 1557, and the complete Bible was first published in 1560. It became known as the Geneva Bible.
The Geneva Bible was the first Bible to add numbered verses to the chapters, so that referencing specific passages would be easier. Every chapter was also accompanied by extensive marginal notes and references so thorough and complete that the Geneva Bible is also considered the first English “Study Bible”. The Geneva Bible became the Bible of choice for over 100 years of English speaking Christians. Between 1560 and 1644 at least 144 editions of this Bible were published. Examination of the 1611 King James Bible shows clearly that its translators were influenced much more by the Geneva Bible, than by any other source. The Geneva Bible itself retains over 90% of William Tyndale’s original English translation. The Geneva in fact, remained more popular than the King James Version until decades after its original release in 1611! Strangely, the famous Geneva Bible has been out-of-print since 1644…
In 1568, a revision of the Great Bible known as the Bishop’s Bible was introduced. Despite 19 editions being printed between 1568 and 1606, this Bible, referred to as the “rough draft of the King James Version”, never gained much of a foothold of popularity among the people. The Geneva may have simply been too much to compete with.
In 1582, the Church of Rome surrendered their fight for “Latin only” and decided that if the Bible was to be available in English, they would at least have an official Roman Catholic English translation. And so, using the corrupt and inaccurate Latin Vulgate as the only source text, they went on to publish an English Bible with all the distortions and corruptions that Erasmus had revealed and warned of 75 years earlier. Because it was translated at the Roman Catholic College in the city of Rheims, it was known as the Rheims New Testament (also spelled Rhemes). The Douay Old Testament was translated by the Church of Rome in 1609 at the College in the city of Douay (also spelled Doway & Douai). The combined product is commonly referred to as the “Doway/Rheims” Version.
The Protestant clergy approached the new King (James I of England) in 1604 and announced their desire for a new translation to replace the Bishop’s Bible first printed in 1568. They knew that the Geneva Version had won the hearts of the people because of its excellent scholarship, accuracy, and exhaustive commentary. However, they did not want the controversial marginal notes (proclaiming the Pope an Anti-Christ, etc.)
This “translation to end all translations” (for a while at least) was the result of the combined effort of about fifty scholars. From 1605 to 1606 the scholars engaged in private research. From 1607 to 1609 the work was assembled. In 1610 the work went to press, and in 1611 the first of the huge (16 inch tall) pulpit folios known today as “The 1611 King James Bible” came off the printing press.
…for over 250 years…until the appearance of the English Revised Version of 1881-1885…the King James Version reigned without much of a rival. One little-known fact, is that for the past 200 years, all King James Bibles published in America are actually the 1769 Baskerville spelling and wording revision of the 1611. The original “1611” preface is deceivingly included by the publishers, and no mention of the fact that it is really the 1769 version is to be found…
…the first English language Bible to be printed in America by Robert Aitken in 1782 was a King James Version.

The Two Witnesses had to be given the writings of the Prophets and Apostles. They had to learn them and, in this generation, teach them in the Name of Yahweh, showing all the world that Yahweh is the Only Power.
About 152 years before I was born, the bible was printed in the English language for Yahweh’s Work in this generation. Revelation 11:3 says I will give to My Two Witnesses.

Yahweh’s Plan Has Not Altered
This information is beautiful because it shows that Yahweh is in charge and nothing is allowed to alter His Plan. To the Scriptural illiterate, it might seem as though the Gods are having their way and could alter Yahweh’s Plan for man, but the following will prove that untrue.
The Plan.
Genesis 1:26—
Then Yahweh said: I will make man in My Image, according to My Likeness; they will have Authority over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.
Psalm 8:1-6—
1 How excellent is Your Great Name in all the earth, Yahweh our Father! You have Your Glory firmly set above the starry frame; the heavens.
2 From the mouths of babes and sucklings strength by You is ordained, so You would still the enemy; the avenger would be crushed!
3 When we consider Your heavens, the work Your Fingers framed, the work of the moon and of the stars, which were by You ordained;
4 What is man that You are mindful of him? And the son of man, that You visit him?
5 For You have made him a little lower than the malakim, but You will crown him with glory and honor.
6 You made man to be the ruler over the works of Your Hands; You will put all things under his feet;
Yahchanan 1:1-5, 12—
1 In the beginning was the Plan of Yahweh, and the Plan was with Yahweh, and the Plan was Yahweh’s.
2 The same Plan was in the beginning with Yahweh.
3 All things were done according to it, and without it nothing was done, that was done.
4 In this Plan was life, and that life was the Light to mankind.
5 Now that Light shines in the darkness, but the darkness does not take hold of it.
12 But as many as received Him, to those He gave authority to become the Sons of Yahweh to those who believe the Testimony of Yahweh—
In Yahchanan 1:12, onoma is the Greek translation of the Hebrew shem-Yahweh, meaning the Testimony of Yahweh.
So how does one become acceptable? First, you must choose Yahweh and His Righteousness.
Mattithyah 6:33—
But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Deuteronomy 30:15-19—
15 See, I have set before you this day Life by Righteousness, and death by destruction—
16 In that I command you this day to love Yahweh your Father, by walking in all His Ways, by keeping His Laws, His Statutes, and His Judgments, so that you may live and multiply, and so Yahweh your Father may bless you in the land which you go in to possess.
17 But if your heart turns away, and you are not obedient, and you are drawn away to submit to Gods (elohim), to worship them by serving them—
18 I declare to you this day that you will surely perish; you will not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Yardan to possess.
19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you this day, that I have set before you Life and death, blessings and curses. Therefore choose Life, so both you and your children may live.
Genesis 4:6-7—
6 So Yahweh said to Cain: Why are you angry? Why are you downcast?
7 If you do Righteousness, will you not be acceptable? And if you do not do Righteousness, sin is crouching at your door. The desire to sin is with you, but you must overcome it!
Cain chose what his mother chose.
Genesis 3:1-5, 7—
1 Now the serpent was more subtle and crafty than any beast of the field which Yahweh had made. And she said to the woman; Has Yahweh indeed said: You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said to the serpent; We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Yahweh has said: You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, or you will die.
4 And the serpent said to the woman; You will not surely die.
5 For He knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as Gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.
7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized that they had *sinned; they had violated Yahweh’s Laws. Because they had not kept Yahweh’s Laws, they were afraid.
The Hebrew root word oram, traditionally translated *naked, the Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament by Harris, Archer, and Waltke, Volume 2, Page 695, shows this word is correctly translated to sin.
Notice the anger following the Gods brings. Verse 5 says like the Gods knowing evil. Notice, continual war.
Genesis 4:6-8, 11, 14—
6 So Yahweh said to Cain: Why are you angry? Why are you downcast?
7 If you do Righteousness, will you not be acceptable? And if you do not do Righteousness, sin is crouching at your door. The desire to sin is with you, but you must overcome it!
8 Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were spread abroad, that Cain rose against Abel his brother and killed him.
11 So now, you are cursed from the earth which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
14 Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall not be seen by Your Face. I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, for there shall be continual war, vengeance, and retaliation.
Yahdah (Jude) 1:11—
Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for reward, and have perished in the rebellion of Korah!
The world today, as Cain, has chosen to be like the Gods, doing evil. Today, the whole world is deceived.
Revelation 12:9—
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.
There is a Bright Side
Breaking Yahweh’s Laws automatically brings curses on those who break them, as well as the people around them. Today, children are born suffering from the sins of their fathers as far back as the fourth generation. Each person’s sins adds even more curses. Birth defects? Every child born in this generation is born with birth defects. The curses alone, given enough time, would eradicate mankind. However, total eradication is not in Yahweh’s Plan. So, that will not take place. Prophecy does show, and this is the warning of the Two Witnesses, that four-fifths of the earth’s population will be wiped out in this present, prophesied generation. These are the days cast about with darkness.
We know the cause! We know that sickness and disease come from two main sources. Eating unclean ‘foods’ is number 1. Practicing unhealthy activities such as fornication, adultery, sodomy, homosexuality, and bestiality is number 2. These abominations do not just affect the one performing them, they affect others. These abominations are passed through contact, inhalation, and ingestion. The air those who practice these things breath, you breath. The food they handle, you eat. The water they defile, you drink. These sins are actually shown to reach into the heavens.
In our 6/2007 issue of The Prophetic Word magazine and our book, Birth of the Nuclear Baby, I show how STDs are in the atmosphere affecting the microbes that form raindrops. The extreme weather and drought are no accident.
Revelation 18:1-5—
1 And after these things I saw another Malak come down from heaven, having Great Authority; and the earth was enlightened with His Glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, My People, so that you do not partake in her sins, and so that you do not receive of her plagues,
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her iniquities!
What is reaching deep into the firmament is caused by sin. Sin is the breaking of Yahweh’s Laws.
I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10—
4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.
10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor!
All religions are following the great city that sits on seven hills, teaching all the world to sin. Only The House of Yahweh teaches the world not to sin.
Revelation 17:1-7—
1 And there came one of the seven malakim who had the seven bowls, and talked with me, saying to me: Come, I will show you the sentence of the great whore that sits upon many waters,
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication; practiced idolatry: God worship (the worship of elohim), and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the Spirit into the midst of God worshipers (worshipers of elohim); and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.
5 And upon her head was a name written: Mystery Babylon the great, the mother of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth.
6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the Saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Yahshua. And when I saw her, I wondered with great astonishment.
7 And the malak said to me: Why are you astonished? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.
Seven heads?
Revelation 17:9—
And here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.
The Basic Everyday Encyclopedia, page 451, gives us the following information concerning these seven mountains (hills).
The Last Two Million Years, by The Reader’s Digest Association, Inc., 1981, page 110, confirms the fact that Rome is situated on seven hills, but notice what else this source says about this city.
Compton’s Pictured Encyclopedia, 1948, Volume 12, page 144, tells us about the city of seven hills.
Revelation 17:1 shows it sits (judges or teaches) upon many waters. Waters?
Revelation 17:15—
And he said to me: The waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and languages.
Revelation 17:3, woman? Revelation 17:9, seven mountains?
Revelation 17:18—
And the woman whom you saw, is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.
Abominations of the earth? Abomination means sickness and disease.
Revelation 18:8—
Therefore, her plagues will come in one day—death, and mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for strong is Father Yahweh Who judges her.
Utterly? That means complete, total, absolute, unconditionally burned, which means nuclear. Coupled with Yahshua Messiah’s Words, we see it’s in this present, prophesied generation.
Mattithyah 24:21-22, 29, 33-34—
21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.
22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.
29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.
34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.
Revelation 11:1-3 shows this is the Message of the Two Witnesses in these Last Days.
Revelation 1:1—
The Revelation of Yahshua Messiah, which Yahweh gave to Him, to show His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it through His Malak to His Servant Yahchanan:
Revelation 11:1-3—
1 And there was given me a reed like a measuring rod. And the Malak stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of Yahweh, and the altar, and its confines;
2 But the court which is outside the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given to the Gentiles. And the holy city they will tread under foot three and one-half years.
3 And I will give to My Two Witnesses to perform their Prophetic offices, and they will foretell events about the one thousand two hundred and sixty days, those cast about with darkness.
Mattithyah 24:14—
And this joyous Message of the Kingdom of Yahweh shall be preached in all the world from The House of Yahweh at Abel by the Witness Yisrayl; for Yahweh will be with him. He will preach this Message to all nations; and then The End will come.
Mattithyah 24:33-34—
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.
34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.
I was born in 1934. In Daniyl’s Prophecy, he is shown two others on a future day of that great time of trouble, the same time or generation the Savior saw.
Daniyl 12:5-6—
5 Then I, Daniyl, looked; and behold, there stood two others, one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river.
6 And said to the man clothed in linen, who on that future day is teaching: How long will it be to the end of these wonders?
Daniyl was shown this generation, which started 1934. He saw the Two Witnesses teaching. The Prophet Daniyl said in the time of The End, the greatest time of trouble would be seen and knowledge would be increased.
Daniyl 12:1—
And at that time, one who is like Yahweh …
This means one who is practicing and teaching Yahweh’s Laws.
Daniyl 12:1, 4—
1 …will stand up at Abel; Yisrayl, the Great Priest, who stands at Abel to teach Yahweh’s Just, Perfect Laws to the children of Your People; and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation to that same time. And at that time, Your People will be delivered, everyone who will be found written in The Book of Life.
4 But you, O Daniyl, shut up the words, and seal the book to the time of The End; many will run to and fro, and knowledge will be increased.
The Savior said in the Last Generation, the greatest time of trouble ever, we would have weapons that would darken the sun. Notice the year 1934.
We are in the Last Generation.
Mattithyah 24:14, 33-34—
14 And this joyous Message of the Kingdom of Yahweh shall be preached in all the world from The House of Yahweh at Abel by the Witness Yisrayl; for Yahweh will be with him. He will preach this Message to all nations; and then The End will come.
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.
34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.
The Prophecy for this time period of the Two Witnesses is being fulfilled at this time. The Warning is going out to every nation as I write.
May Yahweh bless your understanding.
