Do You Have a Cloven Hoof but Don't Chew the Cud?

JUDGMENT BEGINS IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

(Chewing the Cud and the Cloven Hoof Message)

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

~1 Peter 4:17

 

Swine:  they don’t chew the cud BUT they have a cloven hoof.  They are PARTICULARLY unclean because this indicates a body of people who KNOW the meaning of the Word of God (rightly know how to divide it--divided hoof) but refuse to ruminate on it or digest it (chew the cud).  Like pigs, they root around in the dirt gobbling up filth. 

This is the MOST dangerous condition to be in because you should KNOW God or, as in the case of the American Christian, you have KNOWN God (had familiar relations with Him) but you have turned from him and gone whoring. 

This “shadow-picture” is for America:  a Bridal, covenantal nation that has intimately KNOWN God (cloven hoof--rightly divided) but has failed to ruminate, meditate and digest His Word (chew the cud) or consider His Word. 

Therefore, our judgment will be severe.  Jesus sent the demons into the herd of pigs because they said “our time has not yet come for judgment.”

And they cried out and they were saying, “What do we have to do with you, Yeshua, Son of God? Have you come here before the time to punish us?”

~Matthew 8:29


BUT NOW IS THE TIME OF JUDGMENT. 

Swine are repulsive and ugly to God.  Once you have KNOWN God intimately, and then turned away from Him—this is the sin against the Holy Spirit for which there is no forgiveness.  You are hard-hearted and incorrigible. 

In folklore and evil practices…a cloven hoof (using the knowledge of God's word for evil practices) has long been associated with the devil.

You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that--and shudder.
~James 2:19

In all my prayer time…I have unfortunately been brought back again and again and again to this insight:  We must face judgment very, very soon.  It is coming.  No amount of “naming and claiming” it will stop the righteousness of God from manifesting.  In fact, it would be an unholy abomination if He were to let this affront to His Word continue to stand. 

We are in a time of “separation.”  Wheat from Chaff.  Sheep from Goats.  Separation occurs during a time of Harvest.  We will be harvested soon.  Like a winnowing fork or threshing floor or winepress…it will be painful to experience.

Notice the increased uptick in Christian persecution worldwide.  The devil is raging because he knows his time is short.

Therefore rejoice, you heavens
    and you who dwell in them!
But woe to the earth and the sea,
    because the devil has gone down to you!
He is filled with fury,
    because he knows that his time is short.”

~Revelation 12:12

Cliff Hanger: A House Divided

Do you remember the TV Soap Opera Dallas back in the 1980’s? It was the story of an uber-rich, Texan family that, despite their wealth, was completely dysfunctional. At the end of the season, the producers would end with a “cliff hanger” plot line. The most famous one, of course, was “Who Killed J.R.?” The segment that asked this question was entitled “A House Divided”. Probably the second most famous episode was when they resurrected the Bobby Ewing character by claiming all of the 1985-1986 season was simply an extended “dream sequence”. This one shocked, delighted and angered fans because, while they were happy to have a favorite character “return from the dead”, the implausibility of this plot line was just too much for some.

Today in America, it is also a "season finale". We too, face a “cliff hanger” ending. The title for this one could also appropriately be called “A House Divided” with the question being “Who Killed America”? Like Dallas fans, maybe we are praying for a miracle ending where this will all turn out to be a bad nightmare from which we will soon wake up. But, like that episode, it’s highly implausible.

This season wastes no time getting started. We barely turn the calendar page before we hit the ramifications of the Debt Ceiling IMMEDIATELY on January 1st. It is best explained by this article plucked directly from a major news organization just a few days ago on December 27^th:

Geithner warns US would hit debt ceiling Dec. 31, taking steps to avoid limit

Geither sent a letter to Congress that said the department would begin taking “extraordinary measures” to allow the government to save $200 billion beginning Jan. 1. However, since the government borrows close to $100 billion a month, the moves made by the Treasury department would only buy the government a handful of weeks to get its fiscal house in order or default on its debt.

Read that again: Just a handful of weeks before our government faces defaulting on its debt. What do you think this will do to our bond ratings? How about our global relationships? When we start defaulting on our debt—no one should be upset, right? What’s a few trillion dollars amongst friends?

Well…this can’t possibly happen, you may say. Yep, you’re right temporarily. We will probably switch over immediately to “Plan B”—crank up those printing presses. Just print some more money. Obama has already been doing that under the nice sounding name of “Quantitative Easing”. TODAY in the news I saw a prediction that milk will climb to $8.00 per gallon soon. This is what happens when you devalue money. Everything will cost more exponentially. But, of course, remember that Obama is for the “little guy”.

The VERY NEXT DAY, January 2^nd, 2013 we hit the “Fiscal Cliff”. As of the writing of this blog, (New Year’s Eve 2012), it looks like we are headed over in some way. Oh yes, I know…There may be some concessions and “patches” that extend unemployment benefits, for instance, but they are truly named appropriately. They are the equivalent of putting a Band-Aid “patch” over major trauma. Expect the patient to come down with complete systemic failure soon.

Now, what exactly is the “fiscal cliff” and what can we expect as we go careening off the edge? A recent poll of Americans shows that most people can not accurately describe what this is and what the results will most likely be. Here's some scenarios:

-88% of Americans will see their taxes go up an average of $3500 per year (so much for “taxing the rich”). This will easily set off another major Recession as we have a whiplash counter-reaction in decreased spending and a sharp decline in consumer confidence. Expect the Recession to resume with a vengeance.

-Unemployment benefits will immediately cease for more than 40% of the 5 million unemployed Americans who have exceeded the benefit level. Unless, “patched over”, THEY WILL HAVE NO INCOME STARTING NOW. The other 3 million unemployment recipients will not be far behind. Expect a huge rush to our social services/welfare programs. Please remember we are already $16.4 TRILLION in debt. The United States has the questionable position of having a HIGHER PER CAPITA debt than GREECE! Each and every American citizen (adult AND child) carries a federal debt burden in excess of $51,000 EACH. This is higher than the much scorned “spendaholics” in the European Union who are tottering on the edge of financial collapse. In this statistic, we are the WINNERS, by far.

-The Capital gains rate will increase from 15% to 20%. So what…you say? This will put a HUGE damper on stock market investments and real estate investments. Expect to see damage in both markets very soon. ALREADY the stock market is on its fifth straight day of downturn just in ANTICIPATION of this cliff. How do you think it will react when we go OFF the cliff?

-How about “High income” earners: Those who make over $200,000 will see their tax brackets rise from a low of 33% to a potential high of 39.6%. In addition, Obama”care” tacks on another new surtax of 3.8% on capital gains for “wealthy” Americans. Expect high end real estate to take a nose-dive and further stock declines, further divestment of business investments, further loss of jobs, further unemployment.

So maybe you are thinking…phew! I’m one of those people who TAKES from the government…So you don’t care, right? Here’s what government programs will have an automatic cut of substantial amounts on January 1st:

Military (We don’t need to bolster that now...The world is so peaceful.)

Schools (They are doing incredibly well anyway.)

Infrastructure (Does the word “crumbing” mean anything to you?)

Public Health (Plagues anyone?)

Homeland Security (The radical Islamists just love us now…No need to worry!)

Medicare (I KNEW those death panels would come in handy!)

They SAY Social Security won’t be cut. But it’s already functionally bankrupt. And we KNOW how correct they have been about everything else, right? I think we should just TRUST them…don’t you?

January 22^nd 2013 is shaping up to be a monumentally bad day. I personally believe it could possibly be the worst day ever symbolically in American history for several reasons. For starters, it is the official first day of Obama’s second term as President. It signifies the first day that Americans, fully knowing what his agenda is, selfishly re-elected him into office.

Here’s his very first priority: On Jan 22^nd (he can barely wait for the swearing in to be over)…he is shipping (20) F-16’s and (200) tanks to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood leader, President Morsi. We will also be sending American military over there to TRAIN THEM on how to use this deadly equipment.

On January 22^nd, we also hit the “moral cliff”—the 40 year anniversary of Roe v. Wade. We are approaching almost SIXTY MILLION abortions in the United States. This is TEN TIMES the Jewish Holocaust in Nazi Germany.

In the Supreme Court, 2013 is shaping up to be a nightmare for Conservative Values and Constitutional Rights. There are several MONUMENTAL court decisions that are expected to be decided. Just to list a few:

1) Religious Freedom (HHS Mandate)

2) Redefinition of Marriage (expected to hit courts by Summer of 2013)

3) Possibly a challenge to our 2^nd amendment is in the making (gun rights)

In 1938 Hitler was named “Time Person of the Year”. It was also the year he earnestly began gun restrictions and gun confiscations. The very next year, World War II began.

This year, in 2012, Obama was named “Time Person of the Year”. It is also the year he vowed to assault our 2^nd amendment gun rights. Hmmmm….are we due for a repeat of history?

What will 2013 bring? I’m not sure, but today on Dec 31^st, 2012, we are certainly watching an epic, nail-biting “cliff-hanger”.

Will we just continue to tune out or wake up in the middle of a nightmare?

It’s almost time…Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one…

Happy New Year?

Is Israel "Arrow 3" Defense System mentioned in 1 Samuel?

Here is an interesting scripture interpretation from one of our NDR members:

 

I don't know if you have been following the development of the "Arrow 3" defense project in Israel.  It's supposed to be a joint project between the U.S. and Israel but there's been some treachery in the news on the part of the U.S.:

Right now Netanyahu is trying to figure out if he is supported by U.S. or not in the Iranian threat.  See this passage from NIV in 1 Samuel 20:

 

EVERYWHERE you see the following words in this passage read them as follows:

 

SAUL = Obama/Current American gov't

DAVID = Netanyahu/Israel

JONATHAN = Remnant Christian Church (True Believers)

 

I did the first few for you in red...but read it this way the whole passage through:

 

1 Samuel 20

New International Version (NIV)

David and Jonathan

20 Then David (Israel/Netanyahu) fled from Naioth at Ramah (place of refuge) and went to Jonathan (Remnant Church) and asked, “What have I done? What is my crime? How have I wronged your father (U.S. Government/Obama), that he is trying to kill me?” (Why does your country desert us?--United Nations)

 

² “Never!” Jonathan replied. “You are not going to die! Look, my father doesn’t do anything, great or small, without letting me know. (Really?) Why would he hide this from me? (because the Truth is not in him) It isn’t so!” (Disbelief of American Christians that Obama would betray Israel)

 

³ But David (Israel/Netanyahu) took an oath and said, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes (Christian Church), and he has said to himself, ‘Jonathan must not know this or he will be grieved.’ (Obama knows that many Christian Americans would freak out if they knew his real feelings for Israel) Yet as surely as the Lord lives and as you live, there is only a step between me and death.”  (Iran is almost at the point of getting nuclear weapons)

⁴ Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you want me to do, I’ll do for you.” (Intercession--pray for the Peace of Jerusalem)

 

⁵ So David said, “Look, tomorrow (October 4th) is the New Moon feast and I am supposed to dine with the king; but let me go and hide in the field until the evening of the day after tomorrow. ⁶ If your father misses me at all, tell him, ‘David earnestly asked my permission to hurry to Bethlehem, his hometown, because an annual sacrifice is being made there for his whole clan.’ ⁷ If he says, ‘Very well,’ then your servant is safe. But if he loses his temper, you can be sure that he is determined to harm me. ⁸ As for you, show kindness to your servant, for you have brought him into a covenant with you before the Lord. If I am guilty, then kill me yourself! Why hand me over to your father?”  (Last year--in another amazing shadow picture--Obama had lost his temper in the White House when he was supposed to have dinner with Netanyahu.  He ended up snubbing him)

⁹ “Never!” Jonathan said. “If I had the least inkling that my father was determined to harm you, wouldn’t I tell you?” (Again--cluelessness on the part of most American Christians regarding Obama/Israel)

 

¹⁰ David asked, “Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?”

¹¹ “Come,” Jonathan said, “let’s go out into the field.” So they went there together.

 

¹² Then Jonathan said to David, “I swear by the Lord, the God of Israel, that I will surely sound out my father by this time the day after tomorrow! If he is favorably disposed toward you, will I not send you word and let you know? ¹³ But if my father intends to harm you, may the Lord deal with Jonathan, be it ever so severely, if I do not let you know and send you away in peace. May the Lord be with you as he has been with my father. ¹⁴ But show me unfailing kindness like the Lord’s kindness as long as I live, so that I may not be killed, ¹⁵ and do not ever cut off your kindness from my family—not even when the Lord has cut off every one of David’s enemies from the face of the earth.”

 

¹⁶ So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, “May the Lord call David’s enemies to account. ¹⁷ And Jonathan had David reaffirm his oath out of love for him, because he loved him as he loved himself. (repeated affirmations by true Christians of their support of Israel)

 

¹⁸ Then Jonathan said to David, “Tomorrow is the New Moon feast. You will be missed, because your seat will be empty. ¹⁹ The day after tomorrow, toward evening, go to the place where you hid when this trouble began, and wait by the stone Ezel.(Hebrew word meaning "departure") ²⁰ I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target. ²¹ Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them here,’ then come, because, as surely as the Lord lives, you are safe; there is no danger. ²² But if I say to the boy, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then you must go, because the Lord has sent you away. ²³ And about the matter you and I discussed—remember, the Lord is witnes between you and me forever.”

 

(WATCH CAREFULLY what goes on in the news about the Arrow 3 missile defense system!)

 

²⁴ So David hid in the field, and when the New Moon feast came, the king sat down to eat. ²⁵ He sat in his customary place by the wall, opposite Jonathan, and Abner (means "his father is a light"--reference to Satan--lightning, false light--Rouhani??) sat next to Saul, but David’s place was empty. ²⁶ Saul said nothing that day, for he thought, “Something must have happened to David to make him ceremonially unclean—surely he is unclean." ²⁷ But the next day, the second day of the month, David’s place was empty again. Then Saul said to his son Jonathan, “Why hasn’t the son of Jesse come to the meal, either yesterday or today?”

 

²⁸ Jonathan answered, “David earnestly asked me for permission to go to Bethlehem. ²⁹ He said, ‘Let me go, because our family is observing a sacrifice in the town and my brother has ordered me to be there. If I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away to see my brothers.’ That is why he has not come to the king’s table.”

 

³⁰ Saul’s anger flared up at Jonathan and he said to him, “You son of a perverse and rebellious woman! (Obama's anger towards the church will soon flare up--we ARE the "sons/daughters of a perverse and rebellious woman---AMERICA"--The Whore in Revelation?) Don’t I know that you have sided with the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of the mother who bore you? (According to Obama we should not support Israel over the U.S. position)³¹ As long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established. Now send someone to bring him to me, for he must die!”

 

³² “Why should he be put to death? What has he done?” Jonathan asked his father. ³³ But Saul hurled his spear at him to kill him. (Name Meaning of Barry = SPEAR) Then Jonathan knew that his father intended to kill David.

 

³⁴ Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger; on that second day of the feast he did not eat, because he was grieved at his father’s shameful treatment of David. (When will we finally get some righteous anger?)

 

³⁵ In the morning Jonathan went out to the field for his meeting with David. He had a small boy with him, ³⁶ and he said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows I shoot.” As the boy ran, he shot an arrow beyond him. ³⁷ When the boy came to the place where Jonathan’s arrow had fallen, Jonathan called out after him, “Isn’t the arrow beyond you?” ³⁸ Then he shouted, “Hurry! Go quickly! Don’t stop!” The boy picked up the arrow and returned to his master. ³⁹ (The boy knew nothing about all this; only Jonathan and David knew.) ⁴⁰ Then Jonathan gave his weapons to the boy and said, “Go, carry them back to town.”

 

⁴¹ After the boy had gone, David got up from the south side of the stone and bowed down before Jonathan three times, with his face to the ground. Then they kissed each other and wept together—but David wept the most.

 

⁴² Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘The Lord is witness between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants forever.” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town.

(True Christians will support Jerusalem forever)
