The three thousand year old mystery, going back to the sands of Sinai.

 

 

 

 

 

We are getting very close to the beginning of the Shemitah, and I want to share some things due soon.

 

Some things that came this past week and some things that came while I was in my room up there. (He pointed upstairs to where his condo was located.)

There is an urgency to share what I believe is coming.

 

Jim Bakker said, "The Lord spoke to me this week.  He said that the Harbinger was ordained by him and that He and that he breathed it into you and this is one of the two quiet warning to America.  Something major is going to happen next.  We won't hear God, so God will have to wake America.

 

You don't like that I know, but in John 3:16, it says:  "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him...

Yet, Jesus had to die an ugly death on a cross and he loves it so much, its going to shake, rattle, and roll.

 

Just last night there was a massive 8.2 earthquake in Chili.  Thousands were evacuated from their homes.

Jesus said in Matthew 24:7 "There will be times when there is no food for people to eat, and there will be earthquakes in different places.

 

God is warning us with Love ... actually 9/11  

 

The destruction of the Twin Towers on 9/11/2001

Jim Bakker asks the Rabbi:

 

"You believe it wasn't just an attack, that it was a warning from God?

 

RABBI;  Yes!  Nothing happens without the Lord's allowance.  He allowed that American hedge of protection that had been in place so long... it means something.  We were watching America so rapidly fall away from God.  This is what God says... it happened to Israel... its exact... it's replaying ... it's exact ... and I believe that most believers get that very thing.  They may not have said something, but they felt it.  It was a wakeup call.

 

J.B.  The last time you were here, we went crazy - the way that God keeps enlarging - you were on the very street -  the grounds!

 

RABBI:  I take no credit for this:  The Harbinger has a life of it's own.  It has not stopped. It has been coming true since it came out and things that are so strange.

 

J.B.  You are worshipping on the very grounds that were owned by the owners who lived on this land, the grounds of the man who owned the land where the twin towers stood.

 

There were things that happened that I didn't want to believe but had to believe in the Harbinger and since then about the President did since we talked last.

 

Rabbi Cahn's church is on land that once belonged to the World Trade Center land owner.  He had moved everything from the land where the Twin Towers stood to the land where the church now stands.

 

RABBI: The man owned that land before America even existed.  We had no concept that anything like that had happened.

 

There are two signs on planet earth - one says DEY (pronounced DIE) and the other one says Ryerson-Dey Farm.

 

The children of the man who lived on that farm moved to our grounds and there is another sign there which is the name Ryerson Ave., which is the home of the keeper of ground zero.

 

Both of these properties were owned by that man before America even existed.

 

J.B.   (Holding up the Harbinger book)  "This is the last quiet warning that God is going to give us.  People might not believe me, that's fine, but, you'd better have your heart right, because things are coming and people are either going to curse God or they are going to cry, "Oh God!, please forgive us our sins!

 

RABBI:  I believe that the Lord always warns before judgment and that's why ... I want them to be ready... I want them to know, so if you are a believer or if you aren't a believer ... even if you are an atheist, or even if you don't believe anything ... you are going to say,  "Whoa!  Something is happening, something is happening."

 

God is real!  God is real!  This ends in Salvation., even if this is a witnessing event for people, this is for revival, for repentance, and for Salvation.

 

The point is to get the word out.  It's like a Trumpet call.!

 

J.B.   "What's coming next is not gong to be this quiet.  The Harbinger began on 9/11, but its leading on. 

 

We are going to talk about the Mystery of the Shemitah next.

 

Can you speak about the Blood Moons?  Do you believe that God sends them?

 

RABBI:  It's not so much about the Blood Moons, its about WHEN they appear.  That's the significance.

 

See: http://www.greatdreams.com/blog-2013-3/dee-blog577.html

 

What is significant is that you have 4 Blood Moons, that is lunar eclipses, everyone of them on a Hebrew Holiday in a two year period, actually a 1 1/2 year period.

 

It's only happened a few times in the last 2,000 years, there have only been 9 Tetrads that occurred on Feast Days.  In the last 1,000 years, its only happened 3 times and each one has been significant.

 

 God said, "...let me put a caution here, with the Harbinger and the Shemitah, God doesn't have to do anything just because we think  he has to do it, but he doesn't have to do it.  We don't want to put God in a box.  He could do it the day after, so we have to be careful, but whatever God is doing, regardless of the timing, however, but the significance here is the last three times, were all cataclysmic events in Jewish history.  In fact... World history ... In fact in the last 1,000 years.

 

A Tetrad occurred in 1493-1494 after the Jews were expelled from Spain.

 

(Some think that Christopher Columbus was a Jew and that's why he went sailing and exploring and found America.)

Ferdinand and Isabella signed the paper and said, "GET OUT!"

 

J.B.   It really was a holocaust, wasn't it!"

 

RABBI:  It was!  They had the greatest age in Spain and that's how it was.

 

Masses of people were dying and sinking in ships... they went all over the world to find refuge.

 

The biggest event of the 20th Century was that the Jews had to come back together and that happened in 1948.

 

Israel was officially recognized as a nation in 1948.  The Blood Moons appeared in 1949 and 1950, and Jewish people from all over the world started coming back to Israel.  So that period was marked prophetically and cataclysmically.

 

The other great cataclysm was in 1967 with the 6 day war.  The last Blood Moon to appear was in 1967, when Jerusalem as restored to Israel.  A miraculous war.  In 6 days, Israel won the war against massive forces.

 

J.B.  It's impossible.

 

RABBI:  It may be impossible, but its still a miracle because God said... (Rabbi said something in Hebrew)

 

Matthew 23:39  Ye shall not see me henceforth till ye shall say, "Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord."

 

Jerusalem lion's gate

They stormed the Lion's Gate, they are weeping and they went to the wall... the first time in 2000 years.  The Chief Rabbi sounded the Shofar at the wall... prophecy ... during that time in 1968, again you have the 4 Blood Moons on the Jewish Feasts... Passover, Tabernacles, Passover, and Tabernacles.

 

So, you've got all that going on and so now when you have all that, you have another one coming and this one begins on April 15, 2014 on Passover, October 8, 2014 . Feast of Tabernacles, April 4, 2015, Passover, and September 28, 2015, Feast of Tabernacles.

 

A lot of things seem to be converging again but the Shemitah, God doesn't have to do anything, but it says, "learn of the times." and it does say, he has appointed moons and stars as signs.

 

Genesis 1:14  ... and let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years.

 

And he set up the Hebrew calendar according to the moons and in other ways the sun, but actually, but its set up so you always have a full moon on Passover and a full moon on Tabernacles.

 

He also appointed it so you'd have a full moon on the Feast of Trumpets, so God already tied it to these things - so - we should be aware and open - and the other thing we are going to go through, it just so happens that in this year and a half period overlaps with the period we call "The Shemitah.

 

J.B. Isn't this emerging?  It's no accident ... God's moon and stars and signs.  They are in their orbit, they do what they do - they do what God intended them to do and can you imagine... the last time was the Holy Days .. this crazy thing is , the Jews didn't start that war, they got Jerusalem back from... they were attacked.

 

RABBI:  The first thing was in 1948 and got Israel back, all the Arabs  in the surrounding nations said, "We are going to wipe you out!"

 

J.B.  And Truman stuck his neck out.  I like that!

 

RABBI!  He did!

 

J.B. Some people thought Truman was a salty old boy, but he made sure Israel was going to be established because he declared it!

 

RABBI:  And America was the first nation to recognize Israel - right after David Ben Gurion (First Prime Minister of Israel) 

 

J.B.  That was the last time the 4 Blood Moons happened on the Holy Days... fulfilled prophecy ... People!  Jesus couldn't come back - well he could if he wanted to but he said what would happen ... that had to be fulfilled!

 

RABBI:  YES!

 

J.B. So something so big has to happen ... the prophets I hung with, we weep .. we know ... Jesus is coming back.  We know we're in those days.  The final times.

 

RABBI:  Yes!  And such of these last two involved wars with Israel - so that's one pattern ... an attack on Israel or a major war.

 

J.B.  Israel has no enemies so that couldn't happen!

 

BOTH MEN LAUGH

 

RABBI:  "Just the whole world!  Aside from that!

 

But!  All three involved movement of the Jewish people.  In other words... Spain - massive movement of Jewish people -  1948 - masses of people start coming to Israel and in 1967, you have Jewish people coming into Jerusalem.

 

Could that mean something?  The greatest number of Jewish people are in America right now. Outside of Israel the large big batch is in America.

 

And Israel said... "I'm going to gather you from all nations!"

 

Ezekiel 37:21  "I'm going to take the people of Israel from among the nations where they have gone.   I will gather them from all around and bring into their own land."

 

J.B.  Some people believe that God will do something that will drive the Jewish brothers and sisters back to Israel.  Could that happen?

 

RABBI:  That could very well happen!  Whether it happens now or happens in any case, but you know most people are not going to be rushing back to Israel

if everything is fine in America!

 

But, in case God always has a way, even when things were fine in Europe for a time and then things happen.  So that could be as well.  That's another pattern.

 

And again, its all part of God's restoration ... first you have Israel coming back, then you have Jerusalem, like a spotlight getting brighter and brighter and then you have the Temple mount, so who knows.

 

So, we know that this is coming.  This could be an indication that this is part of that.  But if history repeats, then we have something very significant.

 

J. B. I think we are in one of the most exciting parts of history.

 

RABBI:  I think so too!  There are people who are afraid but on the other hand, its an exciting time, to be seeing God move, and you know... look what is happening in the world.  But the Bible said, look at the apostasy, but again, the Bible said it's going to happen.

 

You know you have Israel and these things that even Christians have longed to see one day and we're the generation that sees it.

 

So!  It's an honor to live in this age,  it truly is.

 

I just want to say, "don't be afraid of what is coming."

 

One thing I want to share before I leave is about preparing for what is coming, because I've never done this before.  I felt led to do this, but we are not to be afraid.  If you right with God and you are a believer, don't be afraid of the End Times because God chose you to be in the End Times.

 

He could have put you anywhere, he didn't put you in the middle ages, he put you here now.

 

God will anoint.  Just make sure your life is in the hands of God.

 

Lori Bakker:  "Yes!  Make sure your life is in the Will of God."

 

RABBI:  I believe that God gives signs and there are so many things converging that we need to be ready - on top of the fact - and we haven't said this since I was here last year together - look what has happened to America.  Look at what is happening to America.

 

We are watching such a rapid acceleration.  Remember we talked about the tipping point where when you push something over, you reach a point which is you don't have to push any more, it takes it's own momentum  and it goes faster.

 

I believe that one of the reasons why the Harbinger came out when it did was, that this is the tipping point time, when the majority of Americans, came out to end the ban on gay marriage, including the President and the Supreme Court and we are watching things accelerate so rapidly.

 

You know the prophet said, "Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil, that put darkness for light, and light for darkness... (Isaiah 5:20)

 

And one of the things we are watching and this is the principal - it is in the same degree that in a civilization that calls evil good and this is one of many that will call good evil.

 

And at the same time we are watching people talk about believers - their intolerance, they are hateful, they are extreme, and we are watching the beginnings of persecution.

 

You know when they started to pass laws to protect Christians, they failed all over - you know right now they are telling Christians that they not only have to support abortion, they have to pay for abortions.  We never had this before.

 

And so, we are watching on one hand, it follows the progression of the Harbinger, but besides we are watching Israel being moved, but Israel moving from the side of God to the side of Judgment.

 

We are watching in America, the repeating of the last days of Israel, and that's why  the Harbingers are appearing, and that's why it's happening, and so as we watch that, that is part of the picture too.  We are watching prophecy every day.

 

Every day we hear what is apostasy, the sign of where we are going so God has to.  I mean, how could He not?  God is not mocked.

 

Galatians 6:7  "Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."

 

God loves America, that's why there has to be shaking in this land.

 

J.B. So the Blood Moons, are they signs usually of Judgment?

 

RABBI:  They can be!  Now the Rabbi's wrote - now this is not the Bible - this is not authoritative, but the Rabbis wrote that a lunar eclipse is a sign of Judgment for Israel - upon Israel.  And the main thing is there are lunar eclipses.

 

Something could happen to Israel, or war, but on the other hand they also said that solar eclipses are Judgment on the nation.

 

The thing is there are also solar eclipses in this time frame.  In 2015, two solar eclipses will occur and both will take place on Jewish Holy Days.  And they are totally linked to the Shemitah. Both eclipses!  And the Shemitah is also linked to America and to the world.  There is a link between the Shemitah and the solar eclipses as well.

 

Mark Biltz also talked about with the destruction of the Temple.  You also find all the convergences.

 

You find the eclipses leading on the Holy Days, one after the other, one after the other.

 

That doesn't mean they have to be, but these two eclipses, there is a pattern, it is something to take note of.

 

It's time to wake up!

 

J.B. The Old Testament is not dry, it's not old and it's not boring.  It is relevant to us now!  It is NOW, NOW, NOW!  And we are finding the truth that we should have been studying all along in the Old Testament.

 

When I was in prison, and I mention that every once in awhile, and I'm not trying to talk about the prison, but I had a lot of time, so I was studying detail and somebody sent me a Jewish Calendar.

 

So I saw the 9th of AV in History.

 

587 BC:  The first Temple is destroyed by Babylon.

 

70 AD:   The second Temple is destroyed by Rome.

 

1942:      Hitler declares the Final Solution resulting in 8 million Jews killed during the holocaust.

* - The Germans did not occupy all the territory of this republic.


Sources: Anti-Defamation League, 1997.

 

1914 - World War I begins.

 

JB.  I believe that God prepared me for this hour in the prison. Then I would know the 9th of AV because that is not something that I was taught.

 

The thing that everyone needs to understand how important timing is, dates are, signs -  they don't move around.

 

You don't have to juggle scriptures for these Blood Moons - if you have to juggle scriptures - don't go there - just forget it.


But when it is so blatant that God is speaking that a sign that Genesis 1:14 says -

 

And God said: "Let these be lights in the firmanent of the Heaven to divide the day from the night ... and let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years. "

 

Not just to give us light, but for signs.

 

RABBI:  God is consistent and God speaks.  And so God does things consistently.

 

So the first Temple was destroyed in 587 BC on the 9th of AV.

 

The second Temple was destroyed in 70 AD on the 9th of AV.

 

Babylon and Rome were not working together. Babylon was long gone, so how could God orchestrate things so both Temples were destroyed on the same Hebrew Day?

 

As far as I thought and as far as the second Temple, Jesus foretold this.

 

Matthew 24:2  "Verily I say to you, these shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. "

 

But one arrow went into the Temple and it caught on fire and nobody planned anything, but nobody could have planned that, but God clearly says, "Listen! the same Judgment that happened the first time is happening again.  "This is ME! This is MY hand!"  This is Jesus Messiah foretold.

 

So then you watch through Jewish history and you see the same thing happening again.  Moments of calamity that are almost replaying the Temple is the 9th of AV.

 

They are expelled from Israel when the Temple is destroyed.

 

Now on the 9th of AV again:

 

1290:  The Jewish Nation :  Expelled from Spain

 

1394:  The Jewish Nation :   Expelled from France

 

1492:   The Jewish Nation:  Expelled from Spain

 

This is reliving the Temple.  They are reliving what happened.

 

In Spain, all these ships leaving the harbor that day,  but there also are some other ships leaving the harbor that they.  They were the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria - same harbor, same day, same year... 1492  Columbus sailed the ocean blue -  same thing.

 

Same week:  In fact, Columbus even noted in his diary that day, the other ships were filled with Jews.   Was it an accident?  No!

 

J.B.  So you are saying that Jewish people discovered America?

 

RABBI:  These were Jewish people.  Jewish people in the court of Ferdinand and Isabella financed the Voyage to the New World!

 

There were Jewish people fleeing the Inquisition.  In fact - the first man who settled in America was a Jew - Jewish!

 

And God said in Deuteronomy 28;64:  Ask the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other.

 

So the prophecy of God was fulfilled, on Columbus ship.  So when they first found the Indians, they thought they didn't need a translator, they thought they had found the lost tribes of Israel.

 

So the guy starting speaking Hebrew to the guy - they had no idea.

 

But the other part is -  think about this -  God is always about redemption - that's his Heart, but you have to think a bout this - He's not there to Judge them -  He's into redemption!

 

Here on the day that Columbus set sail - the 9th day of AV they set sail  -on the next day - so here is what it is, while the Jewish people are losing the greatest refuge they ever had as a nation, God set the stage for the other greatest refuge the Jewish nation ever had -  The United States of America - that next day - the next day - America.

 

So even America is linked to this mystery.  So even though the mystery is about the 9th of AV - on the 10th of AV - God always has the answer.

 

He's always looking ahead.  He's always sowing more seeds for the Jewish people - by America existing than any other, so God is such a God of redemption.

 

J.B.  Comet Shoemaker Levy broke apart and Jupiter in 1994.

 

STRING OF PEARLS COMETS

IS ANOTHER ONE ON THE WAY?

compiled by Dee Finney

There are 7 major planetary cycles and/or conjunctions that will energize the 11th sign of the zodiac--Aquarius--from now until 2087. Uranus in Aquarius -- 1996-2003 and 2079-2087. Neptune in Aquarius -- 1998-2012. Chiron in Aquarius -- 2006-2011 and 2056-2061. Jupiter conjunct Neptune -- 2009. Jupiter conjunct Saturn -- 2020 and 2080. Pluto in Aquarius -- 2024-2044. Jupiter conjunct Pluto -- 2033.

See:  http://www.greatdreams.com/string-pearls.htm

 

J.B. That's the name of the comet.  That happened on the weekend of the 9th of AV.

 

And this comet split in 21 pieces and when it hit Jupiter, it created the largest explosions that man has even seen.

 

It happened on the 9th of AV.

 

We've studied this a lot!

 

The 21 pieces represented the 777 - the next three Shemitah years and this was a sign in the Heavens!

 

The last time you came we found out that on Rosh Hashanah, 2008, the U.S. Stock Market fell 777 points and it was a Shemitah year when the collapse came!

 

RABBI:  God uses dates and exactness.  The amazing this we'll get to it is that Shemitah is one of the key signs that gave the number and the time length of Judgment.

 

It was the Shemitah that determined where the Jews would be in 70 years because of the Shemitah.

 

So know you have the Shemitah in America - this is a mystery harkening back to Moses over 3,000 years ago and from this, it gives the exact timing of the collapse of the American economy on Rosh Hashanah, September 17, 2001, the U.S. Stock Market fell 7% - down to the day, down to the hour, exactly 7 years later, the Stock Market crash of 2008 occurred.

 

We are going to see that it goes beyond that!

 

Finally we can talk about what's going to happen on the next one - that mystery is bigger than this one, and we're going to share this - it's already been affecting us before 9/11.

 

The Shemitah has already been affecting our lives, we are even going to see the rise of America, and the fall of America, and from Israel to World.  History to things that just keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger.  We are going to open that up!

 

God is exact!  God is exact!

 

J.B.  You taught us this and I'm getting a little older so my mind is not always correct, but it was September 17th - It happened on the Jewish Elul 29 and the night is the Feast of Trumpets.

 

Only once every 7 years the Elul 29.  That's the big year - that when the collapse happens  -that's when everything happens.  So that is the big day, and we'll get into that in 2015, but only is Elul 29 at the end of the Shemitah, but there is a partial solar eclipse will occur on September 13, 2015  (Elul 29)

 

On Elul 29 was the biggest Stock Market crash - right down to the hour.

 

RABBI:  We are drawing nearer to what God will do, but ultimately its all about God's redemption; but we have become so deaf to God's voice, but the only way he can speak is to SHOUT!

 

I would rather whisper, but HE has to SHOUT - and we are - I have a really strong sense,  and I don't say this very often, I can't say when, but we are heading to this end and it has to be for there to be any hope - but all have to be ready.

 

God is in charge of History - America is but a drop in the bucket compared to God and God will have HIS way!

 

Psalm 14:34  Righteousness exalted a nation but sin is a reproach to any people.

 

And we need help and God's hand is very strong and the same God from Israel - he's the God of History, right now He's the God - right now He's behind everything.

 

J.B.  And then 7 years exactly ....

 

RABBI:  7 years to the day - to the hour.  Elul 29 comes the other greatest Stock Market crash in history in 2008.

 

J.B;  When America changed, the stock market crash and the world went crazy - on that day - 7 years later to the minute.

 

RABBI:  To the hour - YES!  And to that day, God said is the wiping away of financial accounts and it becomes a sign of Judgment on the nation that has driven God out of it's life.

 

So the two stock market crashes happened on the exact same day, on a day that happened to be appointed to the financial realm and happened down to the day and to the hour at the closing bell that happened 3,000 years ago.

 

J.B. September 13, 2015 - we aren't there yet.  The Eve of Rosh Hashanah - a partial solar eclipse will occur -  Elul 29.

 

That is the solar eclipse.

 

That is exciting, but this moment - nobody can fabricate this.  We can't change the calendar.  God - we could change the English calendar but we can't change the Jewish calendar, because it is set by God!

 

Some people get scared, but I think the opposite, but God is in control of everything and that's a good thing.

 

He's in control of every detail of my life.  If He's in charge of al these things, then there is nothing in my life that He out of control.  We have to remember that.

 

He is it he Lord.  He's the Lord of Time - He's the Lord of Space.

 

So - is the end and he will be exalted.

 

AMEN!  AMEN!  AMEN!

Dates in bold are yom tov, so they have similar obligations and restrictions to Shabbat in the sense that normal "work" is forbidden.
