Not King of The Jews - Part
1
Christ Was Not A Jew - Neither Was He The
King of The Jews
This study will come as great surprise to many of the Judeo-Christians,
is a truth that they have never heard. For approximately six thousand years
the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan have been operating literally
on this earth. (Oh yes I know there are some who deny there is a Satan,
but we present you this study anyway. This is not to denigrate them for
their beliefs, for they are True Israelites, and just do not have the same
beliefs toward Satan as many of us do) The two kings met literally, face
to face on this earth 2000 years ago. The one was Judas Iscariot the son
of Satan; the other was Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God (Who
was actually God in the Flesh).
"Hereafter I (Christ) will not talk much with you: for the prince
of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me." (John 14:30)
"In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them
which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who
is the image of God, should shine unto them." (2 Corinthians 4:4)
To really understand this truth we must begin in Genesis.
The serpent that tempted Eve in the Garden of Eden was not a snake as we
commonly think of a snake, but he was a man at the head of the serpent
race: the founder and perpetrator of all false religions. (Genesis 3:1-7)
Accepting his lie and fraternizing with him caused the fall of
the Adamic Race. The emblems of the serpent race are now and always have
been "the serpent" (snake). "The Red Dragon," (Revelation 12:3) "beast
out of the sea...like unto a leopard... (with) the feet of a bear, (Revelation
12:3) "beast out of the earth...two horns like a lamb... spake like a dragon."
(Revelation 13:11)
In these symbols we have the serpent race always symbolized; a
"serpent" and the government of the serpent race symbolized by the leopard
beast with the feet of a bear and the religion of the serpent race symbolized
by being disguised as "a lamb; two horns...spake as a dragon," that is,
appearing as an claiming to be a church, but speaking and teaching the
doctrine of the dragon (The Catholic Church). (Revelation 13:11)
When Cain was born Eve said,
"I have gotten a man form the Lord," but we are sorry to say that
she was deceived about that, or she lied, for Cain was not gotten from
the Lord but from the serpent race. This is a fact clearly stated in the
Bible:
"Cain was of that wicked one." (1 John 3:12)
You know that after Cain killed Abel he had a mark (curse) placed
upon hi and he was banished to the land of "Nod." That word "Nod" simply
means "nowhere" or that he was banished from the Adamic Race, marked, excommunicated.
He went over to the serpent race and immediately built a city, and his
descendants from then on are known as the Canaanites. Many nations developed
from the Canaanites; they are not the only people of the serpent race but
are the chief people.
Cain's descendants were worldly wise. They invented many great
things; weights and measures, land marks and money, (Genesis 4:16-26) in
fact the Israelite governments (Gentile Governments), economic systems
and religious were and are all developed from Cain and the Canaanites.
For this reason the present world (systems) is spoken of as "the present
evil world." (Galatians 1:4)
The purpose of God's Kingdom is to "deliver us from this present
evil world." (Galatians 1:4) That is from the present worldly government,
economic systems and religions or evil worldly orders. Even one-third of
the angels that God placed over the world to minister unto and guide and
protect the race of Adam fell. (Revelation 12:4; Genesis 6:2; Hebrews 1:7,
14) Now those angels were not devils; they did not belong to the Devil
and his host of evils, but they were heavenly angels of God and one-third
of them materialized their bodies and married and cohabited with women
Understand this: The Race of Adam mixed up with the serpent race
of Cain and what is more they mixed with the angels who had fallen into
a fleshly nature. The consequence was that "the earth was corrupt...and
filled with violence...for all flesh corrupted his way upon the earth."
(Genesis 6:11-12)
Men and woman of Adam's race were mating with men and women of
Cain's serpent race and also with the materialized (fallen) angels. The
result was a sterile hybrid mal-formed race of giants. So corrupt was the
world that all natural intercourse had stopped and that world before the
flood had turned to unnatural vices which is the sin that has destroyed
every race that has ever been destroyed on the earth:
"Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God,
neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their
foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became
fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made
like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping
things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts
of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature
more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God
gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the
natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men,
leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another;
men with men working that which is unseemly (here we can see once again
that God hates the queers, and their perverted, degenerate, acts), and
receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave
them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil
things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers,
without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment
of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only
do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." (Romans 1:21-32)
Not King of the Jews - Part 2
God said that the end (self-destruction) of all flesh had come
before Him and that man's days upon the earth would "be one hundred and
twenty years." (Genesis 6:3)
However, Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord and when Noah
was 500 years old there was born unto him sons; Shem, Ham and Japheth.
(Genesis 5:32) The flood came when Noah was 600 years old. (Genesis 7:6)
Consequently his sons were one hundred years old at the time of the flood.
Shem, Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah were married and their
wives went into the ark with them, but they had no children. The first
child born to Shem was "two years after the flood," (Genesis 11:16) and
with Shem as you know, we begin again to trace God's True Adamic, White
Semitic-Hebrew-Israelitish people onward to Jesus Christ and on to this
day. Ham and Japheth were undoubtedly married to the descendants of Cain,
that is, to Canaanitish women and from them Cain's seed was carried over
on this side of the flood and from them have descended all of the heathen,
pagan, non-Israel nations on earth. It would appear that Ham named his
fourth son "Canaan" (Genesis 10:6) in honor of his wife's folks.
All mankind upon the earth, at least in that portion of the earth
the flood affected, died in the flood except Noah, Shem, Nam, and Japheth
and their wives, some number of the Black Race, the Beast of the Field.
It would further appear that one-third of the angels who had materialized
their bodies (fallen) did not die but were put in prison; at the bottom
of the ocean where the in the great deep there is total darkness. (Jude
1:6), not the Decil, not devils. They are altogether different from the
fallen angels. The Devil and his children are still on earth, and those
angels imprisoned will be released for a season and then destroyed. (Revelation
20:1-3)
The Devil is one of the fallen angels, as Christ said, "And
he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." (Luke
10:18)
His children are not fallen angels, for they have never been to
heaven. The Devil is the spirit of a man who was the ruler of a race upon
this earth before our present creation. The original creation was perfect:
"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." (Genesis 1:1)
How long it actually lasted we do not know, but the next verse
tells us: "And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness
was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face
of the waters." (Genesis 1:2)
Some think that the Devil and his race ate of the tree of life
and gained a spirit life and then ate of the tree of knowledge of good
and evil; consequently when their bodies died their spirits survived. Some
will immediately think of that scripture in which it says that Satan fell
as lightening from heaven and that the Devil and his angels were cast out
of heaven. Well, just remember that Paul speaks of three heavens (2 Corinthians
12:2), and the Bible teaches that there are seven heavens
1). One is the atmospheric heaven or air around this earth. The
word "heaven" in the book of Revelation refers to the church heaven on
earth. Satan got into and took his seat in the church heaven of organized
religion on earth. (Revelation 2:13) The word "heavens" is used over 130
times in the Scriptures, which proves that there are more than one and
the other six heavens can be found in those verses.
Following on through, we find a very interesting statement, there
was an "earthquake" in heaven, which proves it to be the church of heaven
on earth:
"And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen
in his temple the ark of his testament; and there were lightnings, and
voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail." (Revelation
11:19) If it had been God's heaven, it would have been called a "heaven
quake" not an "earthquake."
The battle with Satan is in this church heaven ON EARTH:
"And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the
dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither
was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast
out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the
whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out
with him." (Revelation 12:7-9)
Our job is to cast the devil out of the church heaven, God's Kingdom,
and drive him out into the worldly systems where he belongs. The devil
said that he would capture the "stars" and take over the throne of God,
but he never got the "stars" and he never got into that highest heaven
of God. (Isaiah 14:12-13)
Adam and Eve are God's people and an entirely different race from
the natural race in the first chapter of Genesis. When Adam and Eve sinned
and ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, God drove them out
of the Garden before they got to eat of the tree of life. Therefore, "In
Adam all die." The only hope of the vast majority of Adam's race
is to be awakened from the sleep of death by the resurrection, judged and
restored to live in His Kingdom upon the earth.
Of course, those who have accept God's call and are following
Christ are given eternal life, and from Christ's own body, and those of
us who have this eternal life at death will not be disembodied spirits,
not naked spirits, not unclothed, but we will get our complete heavenly
immortal bodies and be passed from death into life, upon the Resurrection.
(2 Corinthians 5:1-8) But this Christ-Body of people are but a "little
flock," few in numbers compared to the vast majority of Adam's race that
are dead, asleep in the dust of the earth where they await the resurrection,
judgment and restoration upon earth.
Not King of the Jews - Part 3
Christians are immortal; we have passed the resurrection and the
judgment and do now share in Christ's resurrection. The coming resurrection,
judgment and restoration upon this earth is for us, the White Anglo-Saxon,
Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, Nordic, Slavic and kindred people; Adam's
Race.
There is no hope for the Devil and his children; they will be
annihilated when the time comes. (The Jews are to be destroyed, or taken
off the earth. (Exodus 17:14; Numbers 16:26; 24:20; Deuteronomy 7:6; 1
Chronicles 17:9; 2 Samuel 4:11; 7:10; Job 11:20; 18:5; 18:5; 21:17; 21:30;
31:3; Psalm 1; 69; 9:5-6; 9:16-17; 11:5-7; 31:17; 34:21; 37:8; 37:10; 37:14-15;
37:20; 37:28; 37:34; 37:38; 58:10; 68:2; 75:10; 92:7; 101:8; 104:35; 106:18;
112:10; 139:19; 145:20; Proverbs 2:22; 5:22; 10:30; 11:5; 13:9; 21:7; 24:20;
2 Esdras 13:9-11; 13:25-38; Ecclesiastes 8:10; Jeremiah 6:29; 8:10-15;
Ezekiel 20:37-38; 35; Isaiah 2:1-9; 11:4; 14:1-29; 25:1; 30:27; 34:5-8;
51:34; 66:15-16, 24; Obadiah 1:1-10; 15-21; Nahum 1:15; Zephaniah 1:3;
Zechariah 14:21; Malachi 4:1-2; Matthew 3:12; 13:36-38; 13:49-50; 21:41;
25:41; Luke 19:14, 27; 2 Thessalonians 2:8; Jude 1:1-12). To show that
the Jews are Yahweh and Yeashua's enemies: (Psalm 17:9; 22:16; 27:2)
Coming back now to Cain and his descendants (the serpent race),
we can trace them all the way from Cain to Judas Iscariot. John the Baptist
called the Pharisees and Sadducees a "generation of vipers." (Matthew 3:7)
Isaiah said:
"The show of their countenance doth witness against them; and
they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul;
for they have rewarded evil unto themselves." (Isaiah 3:9)
Christ called them "serpents" and a "generation of vipers." (Matthew
3:7) Those who descend from Cain and bare the mark of Cain were well known
to Isaiah, John the Baptist and Jesus Christ. Jesus positively connects
them with Cain;
"Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and
scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify: and some of them ye
shall scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from
the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, son of Barachias,
whom ye slew between the temple and the altar." (Matthew 23:24-35)
Therefore, we can see that upon the Jews has come all of the righteous
blood from Abel who was killed by Cain to Christ whose blood is upon them
and their children forever. Christ did not call them the Chosen People
of God: He called them "serpents" and "vipers" and said:
"Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be
not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. Jesus said unto
them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth
and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye
not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of
your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was
a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there
is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for
he is a liar, and the father of it...He that is of God heareth God's words:
ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God." (John 8:41-47)
Paul said: "The Jews, who both killed the Lord Jesus and their
own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are
contrary to all men: forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles (Israelites)
that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always (forever: for the
wrath is come upon them to the uttermost." (1 Thessalonians 2:15-16; See
also Matthew 27:25; Luke 23:23-33; 24:20; John 19:6; Acts 2:36; 3:14-15;
4:8-11; 5:30; 7:52; 10:39; 13:27-29; 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15)
John says the Jews are anti-Christ:
"For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an anti-Christ."
(2 John 7)
Beginning with the serpent that tempted Eve and through the lineage
of Cain we have traced those people all the way to the "synagogue of Satan"
(Revelation 2:9; 3:9) mentioned in the Book of Revelation.
Christ chose twelve apostles. Eleven of them were Galileans; True
Israelites. The other one was Judas Iscariot, a devil. Christ knew that
Judas was a devil when He selected him and he knew that Judas would betray
him;
"For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed
not, and who should betray him." (John 6:64)
Those unbelievers were not fooling anybody, Jesus knew who they
were and He knew what Judas was:
"Jesus answered them,, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of
you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it
was that should betray him, being one of the twelve." (John 6:70-71)
On His last night upon earth before His crucifixion, He was asked
to name the one that would betray Him. John said:
"Lord who is it?" Christ answered, He it is, to whom I shall give
a sop, and when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave
it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. And after the sop Satan entered
into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly." (John
13:26-27)
Note: One cannot find any other man on earth of whim it is said,
"SATAN entered into him." Oh, Yes, devils obsess and possess people temporarily,
but SATAN himself, in person, entered into Judas, and Christ definitely
stated that Judas was the son of perdition. In praying for His apostles
He said:
"While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name:
those that thou gavest me I kept and none of them is lost, but the son
of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." (John 17:12)
Not King of the Jews - Part 4
Here is the point; Christ was the only begotten Son of God, and
was God in a flesh body, and immediately after He was baptized the Holy
Ghost came upon Him in the form of a dove and God said,
"This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased." (Matthew 3:17)
Therefore, God identified Christ to the world as His Son, Likewise,
"Satan entered into Judas" and he was identified as a devil, "the son of
perdition." therefore, God's Son and the Devil's son were both upon earth
at the same time, and, listen: They both died on almost the same day. Judas
was the money changer; he betrayed Christ and sold Him to the Jews for
thirty pieces of silver "and went out and hanged himself." (Matthew 27:5)
Christ died almost on the same day, but three days later was raised
from the dead. The body of Judas Iscariot has not yet been raised from
the dead, but it will be, cor the prophet of God says that Judas is to
be
"cast out of thy gave like an abominable branch." (Isaiah 14:19)
Paul tells us that this Judas, who is "the son of perdition" is
to be reveled (uncovered; the identity of the Jews would be exposed for
what they are, the children of the devil):
"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, that ye be not soon shaken
in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter
as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you
by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling
away first, and that man of sin be reveled, the son of perdition...For
the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will
let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed,
whom the Lord shall destroy with the brightness of his coming." (2 Thessalonians
2:1-4, 7-8)
As sure as you live, Judas Iscariot will be raised form the dead;
Satan will dwell in him; he will sit at the head of organized religion;
say that he is God and he will be exalted above God and all that is worshiped.
This is the great deception that will deceive the combined united religious
world (as it is currently being deceived by false Judeo-Christian clergy,
and teachers). Everything points to that fulfillment today:
"Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan (and why
should it not be, because the Jews are the children of the devil: SATAN)
with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness
of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love
of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send
them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie; that they all might
be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
(2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)
This will take place in the very near future and will be the second
coming of the Devil. This takes place before the advent of Christ.
Now we wish to show you that Christ was not the King of the Jews,
and that He refused the Jewish throne:
"Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be
tempted of the devil...Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding
high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory
of them; and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou
wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence,
Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him
only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels
came and ministered unto him." (Matthew 4:1, 8-11)
Now that devil that tempted Christ was none other tan one of the
high ranking Jews of the time; and from that high mountain he shoed Christ
Palestine, the Roman Empire, the remnant of the Greek Kingdom and the Kingdom
of the Jews; and Christ refused those worldly Canaanitish kingdoms of the
devil. Why the common people even tried to force Christ to take the Jewish
Kingdom;
"When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take
him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself
alone.' (John 6:15)
That kingdom of the Jews in Palestine, just as today, in the days
of Christ was false. It was not God's Kingdom and not of the Tribe of Judah
at all. It was a counterfeit of the kingdom of Judah, a puppet kingdom
under tyrants (pretenders - Jews).
So don't let the antichrists, the whelps of the devil and his
children fool you and deceive you with their great sounding words of stupidity.
For they will lead you astray if they can, that is their purpose; their
only purpose in life, to deceive as many and lead them to destruction as
they can, because they know they will be destroyed and they don't wish
to be alone.
Hoshea was the last king of Israel in Palestine, The capital city
of Samaria was taken by Saigon, king of Assyria in 721 B.C. Then and there
the (northern) kingdom of Israel ended and ten of the thirteen tribes of
Israel were dispersed, scattered all over the world. Later on Merodock-Baladan,
king of Babylon defeated the Assyrians in Palestine and (get this) Samaria
was colonized by Esar-hadden in 678 B.C., and in those very days the Ashkenaz
(Genesis 10:3) who descended from Japeth through Gomer and were of the
Khazar came down from India, Russia, and North Eastern Germany and captured
the northen province of Asia Minor and Armenia and infiltrated Palestine.
The Children of Israel in the old Testament knew them as a separate people
form the Semantic race and so listed them. (1 Chronicles 1:6; Jeremiah
21:27) One of the charges made against Israel by Ezra and Nehemiah upon
the return from Babylon was
"Their children spake half in the language of Ashdod." (Nehemiah
18:24)
And a serious attempt was made to separate the mixed multitude
and to prevent mixed marriages. (Nehemiah 13) The Ashkenaz were confederates
with the Philistines and their city of Ashdod was assigned to the tribe
of Judah (Joshua 15:47) but was never subdued by the Israelites. The study
of Ashkenaz is one of the most interesting in all history and is the source
of many of the pagan religions of the world today.
Not King of the Jews - Part 5
The Southern Kingdom of Judah was mostly taken into the Assyrian
captivity and placed among their brother Israelites. The only members of
the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and Levi were in the cities in and around
Jerusalem. So the small remnant of Judah and Benjamin remained until 586
B.C., at which time Zedekiah, the 20th and last king, was carried away
by Nebuchadnezzar into the Babylonian captivity. Therefore, all of the
thirteen tribes of Israel were gone from Palestine. There never was a king
of Judah on the throne in Jerusalem after 586 B.C,. The Ark of the covenant
disappeared from the temple and with it went God's contract and His Shekinah
glory and that was the end of the true kingdom of Israel in Palestine.
Oh yes, they tried to restore the kingdom of Judah under Zerubbabel,
Ezra and Nehemiah, but it was never done. Then according to Josephus the
Herod family was placed on the throne and all of the Israelites that were
members of the Sanhedrin were murdered, and replaced with non-Israelites.
They were not of the tribe of Judah; they were not Hebrew at all,
they were Idumeans (Edomites). There were six Herods in all from Herod
the Great to Herod Agrippa II. They were not God's people and not of the
tribe of Judah. Neither was there any high priest after the order of Aaron.
Both the king on the throne and the priest in the temple were tyrants and
imposters in the days of Christ, and God's covenant was not with that spurious,
counterfeit kingdom. At least 85 percent of all those who claimed to be
Jews at that time were Ashkenazim and not of the Israelitish tribes or
of the Semantic race at all.
Christ had nothing whatsoever to do with that so-called Jewish
religion except to condemn it. He operated entirely outside of it, calling
only the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, who were the members of the
true thirteen tribes of Israel. The True Israelites (including the tribe
of Judah) were not connected with that organized kingdom and priesthood
in Jerusalem and had not been since 586 B.C., and it was the organized
religion, both king and priest and rabbi had all the denominations of scribes,
Pharisees, Sadducees, etc., connected with that crucified our Redeemer,
Savior and King.
Certainly that false kingdom could not accept Christ; they said
that He was "born in fornication," (John 8:41) a "Samaritan" (John 8:48),
and "If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him; and the Romans
shall come and take away both our place and nation." (John 11:48)
"Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long
dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus
answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in
my Father's name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because
ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and
I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life; and
they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able
to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one. Then the
Jews took up stones again to stone him. Jesus answered them. Many good
works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do y stone
me? The Jews answered him, saying For a good work we stone thee not; but
for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?"
(John 10:24-31)
Then the Jews went on accusing Him of "blasphemy." they called
him a seditionist and an imposter and every other vile name. This is the
way that they do today, that they cannot immediately destroy they demonize
and then the masses will sit back and let them do the evil that they desired
to do at the first.
Christ was not the king of the Jews; in the study of the Bible
we must always take into consideration who speaks, to whom spoken and for
what purpose. If we do not do this we will be forever confused and will
be teaching the doctrine of the devil and other enemies of Christ, for
some of the things that they said are in the Bible. It was Pontus Pilate
who said that Christ was the king of the Jews. Pilate was not a man of
God and most surely was not speaking under the inspiration of the Holy
Spirit.
There are four accounts of what was written and nailed over the
head of Christ on the tree. Matthew says,
"They (the Roman soldiers) "set up over his head his accusation
written. This is Jesus the king of the Jews." (Matthew 27:37)
According to Matthew that was the accusation made against Jesus
for which He was crucified. That accusation was false. Did not the Jews
say to Pilate,
"We have no king but Caesar?" (John 19:15)
That was true, because Jesus Christ most surely was not their
king. If He had been, and if it had been God's will for Him to sit on a
literal Jewish throne, God's will would have been done. But Christ was
not then, is not now, and never will be the kind of the Jews.
Notice what Mark says:
"And the superscription of his accusation was written over, The
king of the Jews." (Mark 15:26)
That was a false accusation. Luke reported:
"And a superscription also was written over him in letters of
Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, this is the king of the Jews." (Luke 23:38)
Now notice John's account:
"And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing
was, Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews. This title then read many
of the Jews; for the place where Jesus was crucified was high to the city:
and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. Then said the chief
priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that
he said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered, What I have written I
have written." (John 19:19-22)
Not King of the Jews - Part 6
The Jews were right in saying, "not the king of the Jews" but
they lied when they said "that he said, I am king of the Jews" for Christ
never said that. Christ said He was a king, but He did not say that he
was the king of the Jews. Notice carefully the conversation:
"Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called
Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jew? Jesus answered
him, Sayest this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? Pilate
answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered
thee unto me: what hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of
this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight,
that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from
hence. Pilate therefore said unto them, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered,
Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause
came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Everyone
that is of the truth heareth my voice." (John 18:33-37)
See how Christ denied that those Jews were His kingdom. Surely
Christ is The King but He is The King of Glory (Psalm 24:10), not the king
of the Jews.
That was the Jewish charge of sedition against Him, and it was
a lie. Paul tells us what kind of a king Jesus Christ is. He says that
he is "The King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the only wise God, be honor
and glory for ever and ever. Amen.' (1 Timothy 1:17) Christ is the immortal,
invisible King on God's throne in glory, with all power in heaven and on
earth. He will someday be a literal, visible, tangible king on a throne
on this earth. The brightness of His heavenly glory will flood the earth,
and is true. David will be raised up as the literal king to rule over Israel
on earth:
"But they shall serve the lord their God, and David their king,
whom I will raise up unto them." (Jerusalem; See also Ezekiel 37:22-24)
Christ said:
"And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed
unto me." (Luke 22:29)
And then after He ascended into heaven He has promised us who
are in the body of Christ the privilege of sitting with Him on the throne
in heaven, here on the earth:
"To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne,
even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne."
(Revelation 3:21)
But, you say, Don't you believe the God has or will have a kingdom
on earth? The answer to that question is a resounding YES! We believe that
God has now, today, a literal kingdom on earth and will rule the world,
and we believe that kingdom to be Israel; composed today of Ephraim, The
United States; Asher, Sweden; Manasseh, Great Britain; Gad, Italy;
Judah, Germany; Reuben, Holland; Simeon, Spain; Issachar, Finland; Naphtali,
Norway; Dan, Denmark; Zebulun, France; Benjamin, Iceland; but this kingdom
on earth is to be ruled by Christ.
Let us take a look at the kingdoms of this world and the stone
kingdom of God on earth. Daniel said to Nebuchadnezzar:
"Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image,
whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof
was terrible. This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms
of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, his legs of iron, his feet
part of iron and party of flay. Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out
without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and
clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass,
the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the
chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that
no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became
a great mountain, and filled the whole earth...Nebuchadnezzar the king
made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth
thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province
of Babylon...Then a herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people,
nations and languages, that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet,
flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, duleimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall
down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set
up; and whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast
into the midst of a burning fiery furnace." (Daniel 2:31-35, 3:1, 4-6)
There is a strange thing about that image, it was 60 cubits high,
6 cubits broad, and six pieces of music summoned the people to worship.
It numbers was 666. The same number is also that of the giant that David
killed with a little stone. Goliath wore six pieces of armour; he was six
cubits high and his spearhead weighed 600 shekels. (1 Samuel 17:4) His
number was 666. The giant Goliath and the great image of Nebuchadnezzar
both represented the non-Israelite governments and religions of the world,
symbolizing all Satanic-serpent governments from Cain to Rome. We can trace
them from Genesis to Revelation where we find them united under Satan,
the "great red dragon." (Revelation 12:3)
The beast out of the sea represents the worldly governments. (Revelation
13:1) The beast out of the earth represents the world religions. (Revelation
13:11) These governments are united into a league of nation (United Nations)
and the roman Church and 665 Protestant denominations are united and tied
up with the governments under the Red Dragon (Judaism) and the number is
666. (Revelation 13:18)
This is perfectly clear:
"And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials,
and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto thee
the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters; with whom
the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants
of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So
he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman
sit upon a scarlet-colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven
heads, and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color
(the color of blood), and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls,
having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of
her fornication: and upon her forehead was a name written, mystery, Babylon
the great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth." (Revelation
17:1-5)
