The Bible’s Author answers a new believer’s questions direct!

Posted on Monday, 22 September, 2025 by Richard Barker

REPRISE of part of my testimonial Jesus Freed Me, republished on my birthday:

Apostle Paul wrote to the church in Ephesus, ‘For I always pray to the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him by having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones), and [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when raising Him from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in the heavenly [places], far above all rule and authority and power dominion and every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come…. [Eph1:17-21, Amplified Bible. We decree that the blindness be removed from the eyes of all the peoples of this land so they may see Jesus Christ is Lord.]

IN CELEBRATING MY 36th SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY I THANK GOD FOR MY EARTHLY AND ETERNAL LIVES

Lord, help me love everyone, even wrongdoers, with Your awesome, gracious undying love

Life-changing as my ‘rescue’ was in that dream-visitation on 14th September 1989, I did not want to rush off to church. The event’s effect and ramifications upon my philosophy of life needed careful consideration. For example, I needed to check out widespread claims of the Bible having been compiled and modified by Church councils in the 4th Century after Christ, as well as learn about its history from authoritative sources. [Prof F.F. Bruce’s The Books and The Parchments (1991) was very helpful, especially about the ‘Muratorian Fragment’. Drawn up in late 2nd Century in the church at Rome, it lists practically all the canonical New Testament literature.]

So not only did I need to assess those personal implications, but also as possibly a new believer in Jesus Christ I wanted to find well-informed believers who take Him seriously. I soon did so, but then needed to put their claims of hearing direct from God to the test. After all, they believe we have a relationship with Him and so we have but to ask… Continue reading →

End-times’ ripe tares fully exposed for removal (Richard’s Watch goes full circle: 19)

Posted on Wednesday, 17 September, 2025 by Richard Barker

LOL it was 17 years ago and now 17 hours ago in my catching up with item shared on my Facebook – wheels-within-wheels just keep on turning:

That ‘kick-start’ email (Endgame is now in play) mentioned above recounts to fellow author Bill Smith what had happened in 2008 :

“Last year, I encountered two conflicting claims about Jesus’ explanation of the parable on the end-time harvest of wheat and tares (Matt 3:36). So I went to check scripture but upon opening my Bible a deep excitement exploded within as I heard, “This is ALL about to be fulfilled” – WOW!! “

Murdering our fellow humans has been ongoing since Cain decided to kill his innocent brother Abel for honouring our holy heavenly Creator. Thus began slaughter on religious – not political – grounds!! Note well: beforehand Cain had heard God ask two questions and instruct him to rule over sin – but he failed, like millions since and blatantly today:

“Why are you angry and why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door and its desire is for you – but you should rule over it!” (Gen 4:7 NKJV)

SO, EVERYONE WHO HATES AND SCHEMES ABOUT AND ENDORSES MURDER, GIVES ACCESS RIGHTS TO SIN AND DEMONIC ENTITIES INTO THEIR SOUL TO CLOSE THEIR SPIRIT, THEREBY SERVING THE HATER OF HUMANITY, satan!

Without earnest repentance they’ve kick-started their own post-mortem burn-out!

JESUS’ PARABLE OF THE WHEAT & TARES

Jesus explains what it will be like after He’s sown spiritual seeds into people but satan itself sows its own evil crop to overgrow and poison Jesus’ harvest of souls. Tares, or darnel, look like ripening wheat but are poisonous.

³⁶Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field.” ³⁷He answered and said to them:

“He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. ³⁸The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.³⁹The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels.⁴⁰Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. ⁴¹The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness,⁴²and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.⁴³Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

NB; removal of ALL OFFENSIVE THINGS AND “LAWLESS” PEOPLE TOO!

Notice also, Jesus’ frightening promise to deal with evil direct by taking lives!! – The lives of unrepentant reprobates who persist in rebellion, serving the hater of humanity and father of lies, the fallen angel Lucifer.

However, what is intended for now is more merciful.

The Trump administration’s full-steam-ahead investigations into ALL Americans who have expressed hatred by supporting the callous murder of Charlie Kirk for expressing his own Christian faith and opinion and encouraging regular open discussions, will be much more merciful than when the angels come to cull and burn them!

SO, such folk had better quickly get right with the Almighty Sovereign God and His Son Jesus the Messiah before it’s too late and their lives are shockingly taken en-masse.

Notable prophecy confirms Societal Equation’s solution (Martial Law)

Posted on Monday, 25 August, 2025 by Richard Barker

RECAP:
My regular readers may have realised America is moving into the implementation of Devolution ‘theory’, of which this is 99th posting

America’s judicial rot validates prophecies of ‘Equation of National Breakdown’ posted 3 April 2025 revisited my first posting four years ago on 7.7.2021 about such a ‘societal equation’, but which is extended as below in view of further events:

“4 year’s attempted ‘soft coup’ + sedition + rigged elections + cyber-censorship + crooked law enforcement + unjust judges + anti-Trump trials + Covid-19 vax/masks + Jan 6th kangaroo court + unjust imprisonment + shredded records + rogue judiciary’s ‘coup’ against Executive powers! = civil war OR martial law!”

In Ephesians 5 exposure scripture-and-2020 ‘Societal Equation’ I conclude massive unrest in Los Angeles over arrests of criminals and illegal immigrants is civil war in all but name as it’s encouraged by California’s governor and LA’s mayor. Thus, President Trump had no option but to restore law and order by the equivalent of martial law. As Commander-in-Chief of US Military he called for the National Guard to assist Federal officers of ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement) and US Marines to be on standby.

Next, on 11th August President Trump began a clean-up of Washington DC crime also by the solution of that Equation; the equivalent of martial law. Apparently, plans are already in place for Chicago next.

PROPHETIC WORD

A week ago today Julie Green received the following prophetic word that Rev Marjorie at Sweet Manna Ministries in Phoenix helpfully transcribes as follows:

MARTIAL LAW IS COMING

My children, your enemies are picking up their pace and are intensifying their attacks against you and your nation. Their time is running short, so they are throwing everything in their arsenal as fast and as hard as they can. Spiritual warfare, physical warfare, biological warfare, financial warfare, fear warfare, psychological warfare.

They are modifying weather to cause more destruction and chaos. This type of warfare is something they must use to stop the pressure they are feeling. They are being backed into the corner with no way out. They do feel trapped, and when they do, they are more dangerous.

I’m not telling you this to spark any type of fear, but to be aware and don’t let your enemy take you by surprise or take you at all.

If you are in My Word and spending time with Me, that is how you are protected, strengthened, refreshed, rejuvenated, and renewed. A place where your enemies can’t move you. This is the time to stop being moved by what you hear and what you see, and My children, be strengthened by Me.

Attacks are coming but they will not hurt you under My protection. No foe can withstand My hand or My power. Your enemies will not survive these next attacks against you or your nations. They are coming with everything they have, but nothing they have is bigger than Me.

You will see these words I have been giving to My prophets, and the written words I have given to you. They are more real than anything you see. What you see is temporary. It will not last forever.

Great moves are being made against you, but more moves are being made for you. Remember, I am the Creator of this earth, and your enemies are nothing, their plans are nothing, their armies are nothing, the globalist governments are nothing, the reset is nothing. They are less than nothing.

You are at a time when I am cutting your enemies off, and removing them from their very positions they sold their souls for and gave up their freedoms.

Great falls are coming. Great military presence will be seen in a way this nation has never known. My children, you don’t see how so much had to radically change to set you free from this tyrannical regime. It must be done by force, and My hand to heal your land, says the Lord.

Martial Law, when you hear this, when you see this, do not panic and do not fear. Do not think this is a conspiracy or this could never happen. You are living in an unprecedented time, and unprecedented will take place more and more. It’s something that’s never taken place to free your nation before, because your nation has never been under this type of attack, politically, spiritually, or financially before. Martial Law will take place, and your enemies fall on their face.

Washington has been under attack with fake politicians and judges, and DOJ’s. Everything you have seen has been suppressed by your enemy, and their movie is over. It is time to show you what has been really going on that no one has realized. The moves that have already taken place to remove your enemies from these positions they don’t belong in will be revealed. Some in Washington have already been removed and judged.

Merrick Garland, treason will be your end. A smoking gun is coming that no one can deny. Merrick Garland, you chose wrong. You chose not to repent. You chose to double down against Me and My nation. Your bank accounts where all your wealth and all the blood money came from, will be emptied and exposed.

Your ties to Obama, your enemies, and your laptops, your burner phones, all of it will be revealed. You set up My David, and your minions indicted him. You helped send the FBI and staged those documents in Mar-a-Lago. You helped the AGs with the indictments. Your hands are dirty, and judgment is coming for you.

Merrick, you and everyone who worked with you, every dirty rat, every person that did not belong, those who are still there giving you intel will also be removed, and treason will be their end for all who are against Me, says the Lord.

Christopher Wray, James Comey, Bill Barr, John Brennan, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, every AG, every FBI Director, every CIA Director, NSA Director, every politician, every former President, every Supreme Court Justice. So many arrests, so many treasonous traitors that will be judged harshly for their crimes against this nation, and against the citizens of this nation, and who are against Me.

Something big is coming to the United States. Hold on, your enemy’s last ditch effort to overtake you before their **_____ ?(video glitch) information linking your enemies, their accounts to every person is coming. 2020 is about to collapse, but with this collapse, the financial markets will crash, and a new one will be brought in. Pray for My David that he doesn’t throw the stone before My timing.

Something is about to take place that the social media giants will not recover from. YouTube and Google’s about to be hit with truth, and what has been going on behind closed doors is about to be opened wide.

Hold on. Giants are falling, and as they fall, there will be more that will shake and quake in this nation. The giants are being eradicated from their power in this hour. Stand up. Stay prayed up. Things are shaking more. Get up. Get out of normalcy and stand with Me in My Glory, says the Lord of Hosts.

**Third paragraph from bottom has a video glitch, and will be edited later.

Chance of eternal salvation being stolen, replaced by probable eternal damnation – Neil Mackereth

Posted on Friday, 15 August, 2025 by Richard Barker

A week ago on Wednesday I was blessed to meet my dear friend Neil over lunch and he soon divulged a brief word he’d been given during that night. As we munched, he mulled over the ENORMITY of what the Lord had dropped into his mind. It was, “Not the way I might have worded it!”

Here’s what Neil was led to write:

SHEEP OR GOAT?

INTRODUCTION

This morning (6 Aug 25) at about 2 am, I woke up with a start. The Lord said to me:

“Satan is stealing the chance of eternal salvation and replacing it with the probability of eternal damnation.”

I felt called to write about the “Sheep and the Goats” judgement (Matthew 25:31-46 – The Son of Man Will Judge the Nations). Rather than slavishly going through the scripture line by line, I would ask that you read it carefully via the above link, before continuing with this article. Clearly, the sheep represent the righteous and the goats represent the unrighteous, and it is a prophetic parable.[RB: an End-times one too]

As we move on, I am sure you will see why I realised that what I was writing was a follow on to, and amplification of, my last article: The Bandwagon of Deception.

“THE LEAST OF THESE”

Jesus, speaking to the “sheep”, says: “Truly I tell you whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” To the goats He says: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these you did not do for me” (v:40;45).

The question is: who are: “the least of these brothers and sisters of mine“? In my mind’s eye, I see Jesus gesturing with His hand towards a group “one of the least of these ….”: In other words, Jesus is indicating that there is a third group present, who are “witnesses” to the event (i.e., other than the “sheep” and the “goats”).

I have read some erudite articles, and listened to some eloquent talks, on the sheep and goats’ scripture. The most frequent response to who “the least of these” could be is that they are “Christians”. Another popular view is that the term is referring to “anyone in need”. There is a problem with this latter understanding: If the “sheep” are not Christians, the text would seem to be indicating that performing “good works” is all that is required for entry to eternal life in the Kingdom of God, and that is definitely not what the Bible says.

If they are Christians, and the scripture “No-one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6) makes me think they must be, then I am convinced that when the King (Jesus the Jew) says, “the least of these brothers and sisters of mine” He must be talking about His Jewish “brothers and sisters” (“brethren” in some translations), i.e., all Jewish people.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS (BRETHREN)

There are several scriptures where Jews, including unbelievers, are referred to as brothers and sisters, or brethren. In Acts 2:29 Peter, in his sermon on the Day of Pentecost, calls the assembled crowd brethren (“Fellow Israelites” in some translations). Similarly, both Stephen (Acts 7:20) and Paul (Acts 13:38) call Jews, both believers and nonbelievers, “brothers” or “brethren”, depending on the Bible version.

WHEN?

The “sheep and goats” judgement takes place on the Earth, just before the start of the Millennium. Its purpose is to determine who will enter the Millennium Kingdom, i.e., to ensure that the righteous, rather than the cruel and wicked, will populate the world. It is not to be confused with the White Throne judgement, which takes place at the end of the millennium (Revelation 20:12-15).

RELEVANCE

We are in a time of uproar: multitudes are clamouring for the destruction of Israel. The truth is, God has told us that this would happen. We dangerously underestimate our God, if we believe He has been caught unawares by the world-wide outpouring of aggressive and vitriolic antisemitism.

God is omniscient and has always known that this ploy of Satan’s would have to be addressed. The prophetic scriptures give us a hint of God’s foreknowledge. I believe that this prophetic parable hinges on how people relate to, and behave towards, the Jews.

CONCLUSION

While I recognise that there are good arguments to support the case for the “witnesses” being Christians, I think it is unsafe to ignore the likelihood that they are, in fact, Jewish.

As mentioned above, we are in a time of extreme antisemitism which, as explained in The Bandwagon of Deception, is so deeply entrenched in the church that many “Christians” believe the church has replaced Israel in God’s favour, which is a diabolical lie.

Whether we like it or not, the Jews are God’s chosen people – the Bible, from beginning to end, makes that abundantly clear. Those shouting against Israel are showing a wilful determination to trample God’s chosen people underfoot.

I beg you, don’t believe the lie and let Satan steal your opportunity for eternal salvation.

We are witnessing Biblical ‘strong delusions’ – Amir Tsafati

Posted on Monday, 4 August, 2025 by Richard Barker

In my intro to Neil Mackereth’s latest The Bandwagon of Deception – Swimming Against the Tide in a Sea of Lies I referred to having been “mulling over 2Thess 2:1-12 on the ‘strong delusion’ God is sending the new Archbishop of Wales before their reckoning”.

Then this morning I came across this item on Amir Tsarfati’s Behold Israel Telegram, but first let’s check the prophetic part of that terribly severe scripture in the New King James Version (all emphases mine). Although not yet applicable in timing, even so the Holy Spirit revealed principle of hatred against Truth must surely apply:

⁵Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? ⁶And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. ⁷For the ^[d]mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only ^[e]He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. ⁸And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. ⁹The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, ¹⁰and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. ¹¹And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, ¹²that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

‘A short message from Amir:

A very dark and demonic cloud is covering the earth right now. We are witnessing the fulfilment of the biblical term “strong delusions”:
•   Doctors now swear that a man can give birth.
•   Minors who can’t vote or buy certain drinks are somehow deemed mature enough to decide to change their sex.
•   Nations commit economic suicide in the name of “climate change” legislation.
•   People join the world’s most oppressive religion in the name of freedom.
•   Food is supplied to people who shelter and support terrorists and hide hostages.
•   The very providers of food and aid are accused of committing genocide.
•   A fake campaign of starvation circulates AI-generated images, photos from other countries, or pictures of genetically caused diseases — while the world’s media stays silent about the only adults truly being starved: the hostages held by these so-called starvation victims.
•   Humanitarian aid distributed for free is called a “death trap,” yet those who hijack the free aid trucks and resell the supplies at exorbitant prices are hailed as heroes.

And now, 600 days after the largest terror attack in the modern history of the Middle East, the perpetrators are rewarded by Western governments with recognition as a state — a move that emboldened the terror group to walk away from a deal to release at least ten living hostages immediately.’

By the way, David Metcalf writes on the poignant idiocy of Western ‘leaders’:

‘On the very day the Arab states call on Hamass to release the hostages lay down their arms and leave Gazza. Up pops Starmer and Carney joining Macron in recognising a Palestinian State. Resulting in Hamass walking out of ceasefire talks, their unwanted interference will result in more unnecessary dead on both sides Idiots !’

Has PM Starmer gone against Genesis 12.3 to bring curse upon UK?

Posted on Thursday, 31 July, 2025 by Richard Barker

Am amused that Old Testament patriarch Abram was only a couple of years younger than me when the Lord instructed him with a MIGHTY promise for the whole wide world. As written in the 12th chapter of the Book of Beginnings:

“Get out of your country, from your family And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you.
²I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing.
³I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

Even when the Moabites instructed the diviner Balaam to curse the Israelites, the Lord spoke through him to bring a stunning contrary word, and which the modern state of Israel cited in its military operation ‘Roaring Lion’ against Iran (Numbers 24 NKJV)

“God brings him out of Egypt; He has strength like a wild ox; He shall consume the nations, his enemies; He shall break their bones and pierce them with his arrows.
⁹‘He bows down, he lies down as a lion; And as a lion, who shall rouse him?’ “Blessed is he who blesses you, and cursed is he who curses you.”

Amplified: “Blessed [of God] is he who blesses you [who prays for and contributes to your welfare] and cursed [of God] is he who curses you [who in word, thought, or deed would bring harm upon you]”.

My fellow End-times author AS cited the above scriptures and writes me as follows;

“Starmer should be very careful about his responses to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, for the sake of all of us:

Joel 3:2, 12, 17, 21: I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.
“Let the nations be roused, let them advance into the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit to judge all the nations on every side.
“Then you will know that I, the Lord your God, dwell in Zion, my holy hill. Jerusalem will be holy; never again will foreigners invade her.
Shall I leave their innocent blood unavenged? No, I will not.”
Zacharia 12:3-4: “On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,” declares the Lord.

OUR GOVERNMENT NOT STANDING WITH ISRAEL BUT SIDING WITH THOSE WHO CURSE IT, HAS PUT THE UNITED KINGDOM IN THE SAME PLACE!

Not only failing to deal with anti-Semitic, pro-Palestine violence but also complying with the demands of those who endorse Hamas’ prime-evil barbarity, for Britain’s Prime Minister to recognise a state of Palestine in September unless Israel complies with a series of conditions based upon outrageous lies, puts our nation spiritually into a worse place than we’re in – but accords with the prophecy of the Lord overturning Britain.

YET, thank and praise You Lord for signs of Revival…

My personal Facebook and blog’s Telegram channel (has Preview screen) cover this news with many entries, for example along with other screenshots:

Read the remainder of the Ambassador’s 5-page letter here.

Adrian Blomfield writes,

‘Hamas leaders could be forced to leave Gaza after Middle-Eastern states united behind a new plan to end the 22-month-long war.

Qatar and Turkey, two of the group’s main patrons, have thrown their weight behind a French and Saudi peace initiative that sharply increases pressure on Hamas to disarm, surrender power and accept exile.

Senior Gulf officials said the rare display of regional unity could isolate the movement to the point where it has no option but to comply.

“We genuinely believe we have a shot at this,” one diplomat said. “Hamas is in a corner. They don’t have much choice.”

Israel’s long and bloody war in Gaza has left Hamas so enfeebled that Arab officials believe there is now a “golden opportunity” to deliver a final blow…’

Let’s pray this will align with the Lord’s plans, for “blessed are the peacemakers”.

The Bandwagon of Deception – Neil Mackereth

Posted on Thursday, 31 July, 2025 by Richard Barker

So much happening online delaying my blogging about our sovereign, prime minister and party being FOOLED (thus NOT a government) by prime-evil barbarians pretending to deserve rational political recognition, but upon catching up with dozens of emails I’m pleased to find this sent on Tuesday from my dear friend Neil (emphases mine).

As though by God-incidental confirmation, Neil’s thesis echoes not only my repenting on behalf of our ungodly UK leaders, but also my mulling over 2Thess 2:1-12 on the ‘strong delusion’ God is sending the new woke Archbishop of Wales before their reckoning, viz: ¹¹And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, ¹²that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Now over to Neil:

THE BANDWAGON OF DECEPTION

(SWIMMING AGAINST THE TIDE IN A SEA OF LIES)

INTRODUCTION

The aim of this article is to explain some aspects of how a great deception has become imbedded in the Church and Christian society. This overview is far from exhaustive: my hope is that readers will feel called to research further in the Bible and seek to understand God’s redemptive plan for Jews and Gentiles.

THE COUNCIL OF JERUSALEM

In about 50 AD, the apostles and elders held a meeting, later known as The Council of Jerusalem, to discuss whether the acceptance of Gentiles as believers should be dependent on their agreeing to observe Jewish practices and procedures (i.e. by converting to Judaism). Acts 15 describes the outcome: Gentile believers did not need to convert to Judaism.

The decision was largely based on Peter’s experience, when he went to the house of Cornelius the centurion (see Acts 10). Cornelius and his household were baptised in the Holy Spirit, after listening to Peter. They were neither circumcised nor observers of Jewish customs and practices.

The apostles and elders had “eyes to see and ears to hear” and understood that God was moving in a new way among the Gentiles. The Council of Jerusalem showed a generosity of spirit that was both inclusive to Gentile believers and obedient to the Will of God.

Their decision was Biblical and evidence-based.

COUNCIL OF NICAEA 325 AD

Moving swiftly forward, the outcome of the Council of Nicaea* was very different. The gathering of bishops (all Gentiles), ordered by Emperor Constantine, ignored the Jewish heritage of the Christian faith, and made no mention of Jesus being a Jew.

To be accepted as Christians, Jews were required to renounce their Jewish beliefs, not keep Shabbat, change their names to Christian names etc. The fact that the apostles had Jewish names and Jesus’ Hebrew name is Jeshua, was ignored.

After the Council, Constantine wrote: “It was declared to be particularly unworthy for, the holiest of all festivals (Easter), to follow the custom of the Jews, who had soiled their hands with the most fearful of crimes … We ought not, therefore, to have anything in common with the Jews …. but to separate ourselves from the detestable company of the Jews ….. At the same time it is our duty not to have anything in common with the murderers of our Lord.”

There is more in this vein; suffice it to say, the Council of Nicaea nurtured and developed the roots of antisemitism that were seeded over the previous 200 years. Unlike the Council of Jerusalem’s attitude towards Gentile believers, there was nothing inclusive or generous of spirit in the Council of Nicaea’s view of the Jews.

Their attitude was neither Biblical nor evidence-based.

PAUL THE APOSTLE

It seems likely that Paul, by God’s guidance, foresaw the possibility of the Church parting company with its Jewish roots. Paul could not have been clearer in his teaching that the gospel of God was “to the Jew first and then to the Gentile” (Romans 1:16). In Romans 9-11, he explains the relationship between God and His chosen people Israel, and that even though many rejected Yeshua, they remain “beloved for the sake of the fathers” (11:28), and will be saved (11:26). Paul also warned the Gentiles against arrogance towards the Jews (11:18).

God’s love for His chosen people Israel is confirmed in many other scriptures. Some examples: His everlasting covenant (Genesis 12:1-8); they are ‘the apple of His eye’ (Zechariah 2:8); His first-born (Matthew 4:22); special treasure (Deuteronomy 7:6}; My Glory (Isaiah 46:13); My Nation (Isaiah 51:4).

Paul’s passion and love for his people is also clear (e.g., Romans 9:3) and he never renounced his Jewish roots; rather the opposite, he calls himself a “Hebrew of Hebrews” (Acts 22:2, see also Philippians 3:5).

WHAT IFs

We have looked at some aspects of how antisemitism became established in much of the Church, and commented on God’s deep and enduring love for His people. I now want to summarise some facets of how antisemitism has influenced society. I do this by a number of “what if” questions, as a form of shorthand covering huge issues.

What if many of the Founding Fathers of the Church; the Heroes of the Faith; God’s Generals; and various convocations of bishops, were all wrong in their attitude towards the Jews? Who would dare to speak out against such protagonists?

What if Hitler had not felt that the Lutheran church supported his views?

What if the once recognised bastions of virtue, truth and justice like the UN; ICJ; BBC; and so on, are wrong in their attitude towards the Jews? Who would listen to anyone who rails against such established bulwarks of society?

What if proponents of Replacement Theology are bearing false witness?

What if much of the Church has been undermined by, and has succumbed to, ‘woke’ ideology?

What if the Bible is accurate when it says people will prefer lies to truth (2 Timothy 4:4, see also 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11) and that those who curse Israel will be cursed (Genesis 12:3).

What if the media are accepting and promulgating (broadcasting) Hamas reports without carrying out due diligence and verifying those reports?

I am sure you will be able to think of many more.

THE WHY AND THE HOW

Satan, the father of lies, knows what the Bible says: nevertheless, he believes he can thwart God’s End-time plan, and avoid his ultimate destiny: “the lake of burning sulphur” (Revelation 20:10).

He has already established a pattern of deception and scheming against the Jews.

Why?

Because the Book of Revelation says Jesus will return to Jerusalem to take His rightful place on the throne of David, as King of the Jews. Satan seeks to prevent that certainty. His attempts to destroy Jesus, to disperse the Jews, to undermine their national identity, to annihilate them (the holocaust), to prevent their return to Israel and/or to destroy or divide Jerusalem, have either failed or have not been fully realised.

Time is short and Satan is getting more desperate – he is whipping up a frenzy of worldwide antisemitism and hatred against Israel which, in fact, is fulfilling prophecy.

CONCLUSION

Much of the Church has bought into a lie, in respect of its relationship with Israel. It is time to expose this ancient deception. We, the Gentile Christians, need to humble ourselves and repent (2 Chronicles 7:14). God forgive us for forgetting how greatly blessed we Gentiles are to have been grafted into the Jewish tree. The roots of that tree were established and nurtured by Jesus and the Jewish apostles: we owe them an immeasurable debt of gratitude.

The maelstrom of lies, libels and curses against Israel is overwhelming, and it is truly astonishing that they are so widely accepted by so many who should know better.

I tell you the truth, prophecy is being fulfilled in our time, and it may not be long before Jesus returns – Hallelujah. And one thing is certain, each one of us is going to have to give an account before God for our words and actions (Romans 14:12).

What will you say?

The Word Discovers Our Condition

¹¹Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. ¹²For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. ¹³And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

27 NOV 2020 INTRO TO WHAT’S HAPPENING NOW (click image)

‘Epic’ lawsuits, ‘Biblical’ upheaval and ‘Release of the Kraken’ (US cyber-warfare unit)

I posted a link to the above onto Facebook and within minutes our dear sister Veronika West reminds me of what she saw relating to the news of a catastrophe, as published 22 June 2023 by His Kingdom Prophecy and which features within this posting…

Gravely portentous event and prophetic warning – Veronika West

NB: Military Attorney Powell’s reference to Kraken unit is different to that of our prophet Veronika’s following prophetic word:

A Prophetic Word of Warning: ‘The Titan’ Submersible

These are the days of the five wise and five foolish Virgins. These are the days of The Clash of Titans and the sinking of Titanic Giants! God will not be mocked!

As I was before The LORD concerning the News Story of the Titan Submersible and the five people on board, I suddenly heard The Spirit say, ”I tell you again, the time is short — for these are the Days of the Five Wise and the Five Foolish Virgins!

I say again — Time is short!

My Grace, My Grace! These are the Days of My Grace poured out — but Watch! For the eyes of the World are on the waters of the deep, and that which is hidden, shall be fully exposed.

Listen — for the sound of an SOS shall be heard in the days ahead. Ha! “Not even God can sink this ship!” I tell you, I shall not be mocked, but the stiff-necked shall be broken!

But fear not! For those who Call upon My Name shall surely be Saved!

‘Tick Tock’,.. ‘tick tock’, goes the hands of the clock — for this is a Kairos Time, an Appointed Time and Season!

Watch! For a clashing of the Titans and the Sinking of Titanic Giants will begin to unfold in the days ahead.

I say, Brace! Brace for Impact! For this is a Race against Time and Space!

Watch and Pray, for a Battle of the Kraken. Yes! A War against the Dragon — the Spirit of Leviathan — has surely begun in The Nations of the Earth, for now a Divine Confrontation is taking place!

Watch! For a greater Shaking will begin to take place as Economic and Financial Systems begin to Crash.

For I tell you again — The Time is Short, and the riches of this world are futile and cannot save you, and life is fragile and fleeting like the grass that withers and the flower that fades, but My Word will endure forever!”

SOS: is a Morse code distress signal ( ▄ ▄ ▄ ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▄ ▄ ▄ – SEE PS insert), used internationally, that was originally established for maritime use. In formal notation SOS is written with an overscore line, to indicate that the Morse code equivalents for the individual letters of “SOS” are transmitted as an unbroken sequence of three dots / three dashes / three dots, with no spaces between the letters.

NEWS:

If, dear reader, you’ve yet to preview this blog’s Telegram channel of prophecy-related news I’d urge you to scroll down from this entry. Here’s just a few pertinent items:

‘The Dems and Panicans are trying to establish the narrative that these Russiagate docs are a “distraction” from Epstein.

They have it backwards.

‘The manufactured Epstein hysteria was an attempt to derail Trump’s admin and discredit them BEFORE this Russiagate news dropped.

The enemy knew this was coming. They have been trying to fracture Trump’s administration this entire time, trying to prevent the reckoning.

This is why they have been trying to get rid of Hegseth, Bondi, Kash, Bongino, Tulsi, Trump, etc.

They know they are being hunted.’

MUST VISIT > Tulsi Gabbard: “What truly unsettles my political opponents is I refuse to be their puppet.” FBI Director Kash Patel, “She was an EXCELLENT pick for Director of National Intelligence, wasn’t she?”

‘Trump just signed the Deep State’s death warrant. The Executive Order is real. Total declassification of Crossfire Hurricane is now underway. Every lie they used to destroy Trump is now evidence — and the DOJ, FBI, CIA, Obama, Biden, and Clinton are fully exposed.

This isn’t transparency. This is warfare.

The Russia hoax was never about foreign interference. It was a coordinated political coup against the one man they couldn’t control. The Executive Order demands immediate release of all communications, memos, and briefings tied to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane operation — the treasonous setup designed to rig 2016 and sabotage Trump before he even stepped foot in the Oval.

Trump didn’t just clear his name. He triggered the implosion of the Deep State’s biggest lie.

They knew. They lied. They covered it up. Brennan briefed Obama and Biden on Hillary’s “Clinton Plan” back in August 2016 — a plot to fabricate Trump-Russia collusion. They let it move forward. They never told the FISA court. They never warned the agents. They weaponized a lie against a sitting President.

This wasn’t incompetence. It was treason.

80% of Crossfire Hurricane’s “intel” came from a single source: Igor Danchenko — a proven liar tied to Russia. His fake stories became the Steele Dossier, paid for by Clinton, laundered through Perkins Coie, and pushed by Fusion GPS. The FBI knew it was garbage. They used it anyway to spy on Trump and fuel a media psyop to sway the nation.

Durham’s report confirmed everything: The Clinton plan was real. – Obama, Biden, Brennan, and Comey were briefed. – The FBI broke protocol. – The dossier was fake from the start — and used anyway.

Nothing was ever verified. Because they didn’t care. They had orders.

And when Trump declassified it all? They panicked.

The Mar-a-Lago raid wasn’t about “national security.” It was a cover-up. The missing binder? It likely held the documents proving everything. So they sent the FBI to retrieve the truth — and hide it forever.

But now it’s too late.

The Executive Order has detonated. The mask is off. The cover story is burned. And now the real story begins.

Indictments are next. Military tribunals are on the table.
This is not the end — it’s the beginning of the reckoning.
Tick. Tock.
GITMO is waiting.

The fight continues! Join me now!’

A Biblical baseline of Exposures – Ephesians 5

Our local house group is studying Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus. So, this week I emphasised vers es pertinent to my following up my mulling over and monitoring examples of the Lord exposing political rot and corruption, now at 650 postings.

UK political party’s advert mirrors 2019 prophecy of torn Union Flag

Posted on Wednesday, 9 July, 2025 by Richard Barker

Upon visiting a friend’s Telegram channel Tuesday afternoon I spotted this posted with the contributor’s comment, as copied below:

“Info – I came across this👆on X and immediately V West prophecy came to mind …I’m not sure when that was it must have been about a couple of years back. 🙏.”

I replied, “A couple of years’ back”? My how time flies Liz as did quick search and got this in 2019!”
https://richards-watch.org/2020/09/24/press-and-prime-minister-mirror-a-stitch-in-time-prophecy-2019/

And received this: “Hi Richard. Thank-you for the extra info. Re link. The only source I can provide is: the X account of Andrew Ebon that is where I saw the photo of the 🇬🇧 (above) It has something to do with Ben Habib’s newly launched party, named – Advance. The thread is not that long only a few comments. It was the caption and image on the photo that made me stop and look. I think you can just check this guys account via the net as I don’t think it’s got a link as such. All the best.🙏 thanks again.”

So I popped it onto my Facebook and tagged to Veronika, who comments

“What a fascinating picture“; https://www.hiskingdomprophecy.com/uk-can-a-nation-or-flag-be-repaired/

Here’s her original post of 22 October 2019, .

“Agreed! It’s a mouthful of an introduction!

But friends please read on… For the birthright and destiny of a nation depends on the persistent, unwavering and steadfast prayers of a righteous remnant that must now arise.

The vision…!

Six or seven months ago I was in a time of prayer, when I was praying not specifically for the nation of Great Britain and Northern Ireland at the time, (but I was praying concerning a personal matter relating to a decision I had to make), when suddenly a powerful vision opened up to me, where I saw the British flag of the Union Jack, come up before me.

As I looked at the flag, I knew immediately that The Spirit of Revelation was about to speak to me and reveal something to me regarding the destiny of the nation, so I watched intently in the vision.

Suddenly I saw the flag of the Union Jack being torn in half. The flag was completely torn into two separate pieces!

As I looked at the flag ,which now lay torn in two, my heart began to cry out…”Oh God have mercy, please do not allow the destiny of this nation to be destroyed!”

As I cried out, suddenly I came out of the vision, but I remained praying, asking The Spirit of Revelation to show me more… But He spoke nothing more to me at that time.

Can the flag be fixed? Now is the time!

Well, months past by and at different times I would be reminded of the vision, and again I would ask The LORD to reveal more, but He was silent.

Then two days ago, something happened (for the sake of time I will not share what) but the vision was brought back to me in a powerful way, but this time, The Spirit of Revelation would not give me rest concerning the matter.

So I began to pray fervently, asking The LORD to reveal and to remove the burden that I was feeling and carrying in my heart.

I cried, “Father, tell me how can The Flag can be fixed! How can a divided nation can be restored?”

And then suddenly today, everything changed — 21st October 2019. 21… 7+7+7 at exactly 7.00 a.m., I was suddenly caught up in the realm of The Spirit where I saw again The Flag of the Union Jack being torn in two.

Now as I looked at The Flag I began to cry out with a loud voice, ”Let the restoration and reformation of this nation begin! Let the spirit of Leviathan that has divided and torn this nation apart be brought down low!”

As I cried out in the vision for the nation’s birth-right and destiny, suddenly a bright light shone down from above and as I looked again, the light began to get brighter and brighter, illuminating the place where the torn flag was lying.

Then suddenly as my vision was expanded, I saw a multitude of people lying fully prostrate on the floor before the torn flag.

I could hear the sound of many praying. Some were wailing, some were weeping.

Now as I looked and listened, I knew by revelation that these were the precious Saints of God, a righteous remnant who were rising up for such a time as this.

These were the hidden and set apart ones, God’s faithful watchmen and intercessors who were now in deep travail, crying out day and night with one voice for repentance, restoration and reformation to come to a nation that has been divided and torn apart!

Prayers of Gold that carry the weight of His Glory

As I continued to listen intently in the vision to the sound of the cries of the remnant, suddenly I saw what looked like thousands upon thousands of Golden Threads coming out of the mouths of those who were lifting their voices in deep travail and intercession for the nation at this time.

As I stayed watching, I saw all The Golden Threads begin to come together as one thick and strong Golden Strand which seemed to hover, but for a fleeting moment, over the torn flag.

Then suddenly I saw two more Golden Strands coming out of the heavens and the two joined with the first and then I heard these words, “A threefold cord cannot be easily broken!”

Then I watched as the three strand cord of Golden Thread began to form a large ball. As I listened to the prayers of the faithful remnant which continued to go up before The LORD, I saw The Ball of Golden Thread begin to grow larger and larger in size.

As the Golden Ball grew, I began to tangibly feel in the realm of The Spirit the weightiness of The Ball of The Golden Thread.

Again I knew by revelation, that what I was feeling and experiencing in the vision was the weightiness of the Glory of The LORD which was upon the prayers of the saints who were crying out for the nation.

Needle and thread — Word and Spirit!

Then suddenly the vision shifted slightly and I saw a very large Silver Sword come down from the heavens. I watched as the Silver Sword began to spin above The Ball of Golden Thread.

Then I heard these words, “What good is thread without a needle, and what good is a needle without the thread? And likewise, what good is The Word without My Spirit and what good is The Spirit without My Word.
Watch! For now My Word and My Spirit will come together over this nation and the nations of the earth to restore and reform that which has been divided and that which has been destroyed.”

As I heard those Words, suddenly I saw The Silver Sword become as a Silver Needle and I watched as The Golden Thread and The Silver Needle came together as one… (Word and Spirit).

A Finisher’s Anointing!

Then I watched as The Silver Needle began to weave The Golden Thread through the two pieces of torn flag. Back and forth, and back and forth The Needle and The Golden Thread moved together as one.

Now as I watched intently, I saw the torn flag slowly begin to be reconnected and restored.

Then suddenly I noticed that The Golden Ball of Thread was beginning to diminish in size, and immediately The Spirit of Revelation spoke to me saying, “Daughter of man, it is time to release a Finisher’s Anointing upon The Remnant who have become weary, for that which has begun must be fully completed.”

As I heard The Spirit speak, I immediately began to release A Finisher’s Anointing upon those who were praying in the vision.

As I released the Words which had been instructed to me by The Spirit of Revelation, suddenly I saw fresh oil and fire fall upon those who lay prostrate around the flag.

Then the sound of their voices got louder and the sound of their cries became more intense. Then I watched as The Golden Ball of Thread began to grow and increase in size once again.

As the Golden Ball grew, so The Silver Needle continued to weave The Thread through the two pieces of the torn flag.

A time of total restoration and reformation!

Now as I stayed watching this take place in the vision, I saw the torn flag being fully repaired and fully made whole once again!

A nation which was torn and divided by the spirit of Leviathan was totally healed, restored and reformed.

A time of prayer, meditation and reflection!

As I came out of that powerful vision, I began to pray fervently for the nation and for all that I was shown.

The Spirit of God led me to intercede specifically for the weary warriors….. For those who would be tempted to shrink back as the battle intensifies.

Again I began to release by faith, A Finisher’s Anointing that the work of Restoration and Reformation that has begun in the nation would be fully perfected and completed.

As I prayed, and binding and loosing as The Spirit led, it was quickened to me the story of Moses when the battle raged and his arms grew tired… (Exodus 17:12-14)…. God raised up Aaron and Hur who brought a stone for Moses to sit upon and they stood beside him and held up his arms, holding them steady until the sun went down and the battle was won.

In the vision, I saw so clearly that as The Work of Restoration began, The Ball of Golden Thread began to diminish as the battle raged, but immediately I was instructed to release A Finisher’s Anointing, and as I did, fresh oil and fire fell, which reignited and revived the prayers of the saints and I watched as The Ball began to grow in size again, as The Ball grew, The Needle continued to move.

The Spirit of God highlighted to me again that The Word and The Spirit will come together in this hour to bring to full completion and perfection that which has been started in our nation!

I see… and decree!

In this hour I see God stand over His Word to perform it.

I decree The Word and The Spirit are coming together in this nation to Transform, Restore and Reform a land and people who are divided and a destiny that is in peril.

“But Moses’ hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Then The LORD said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven,” Exodus 17:12-14.

Blessings to you all.

Veronika’s vision reminds me of the wide open vision I had in 2004 of the British Isles being on such old, rotting sacking that the Lord can easily tear it apart because “The fabric of British society is so rotten” – BUT through the tear I saw the Rock arise, as recounted in this post…

Comments upon the collapse of Society

Ephesians 5 exposure scripture and 2020 ‘Societal Equation’

Posted on Thursday, 3 July, 2025 by Richard Barker

Thank You Lord for Your timing once again! In prepping early last night before attending house group I collated latest ‘accelerating’ news on exposures only to find the group’s study has arrived at Ephesians 5:1-20 – verses 8-14 (NKJV) being apropos:

Walk in Light

⁸For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light ⁹(for the fruit of the ^[b]Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), ¹⁰finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. ¹¹And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather ^[c]expose them. ¹²For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. ¹³But all things that are ^[d]exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. ¹⁴Therefore He says:

“Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.”

This is the pivotal scripture behind my having sensed nine years ago that many aspects of political rot and corruption IN UK, USA and EU were going to be exposed by the Lord – never would I have expected hundreds of instances would become public knowledge!

Before considering the latest exposures let’s revisit my post-2020 election hypothesis:

SOCIETAL EQUATION – PROVEN

Three months ago today in America’s judicial rot validates prophecies of ‘Equation of National Breakdown’ we reconsidered my first posting four years ago on 7.7.2021 about such a ‘societal equation’, which got extended in view of events as follows:

“4 year’s attempted ‘soft coup’ + sedition + rigged elections + cyber-censorship + crooked law enforcement + unjust judges + anti-Trump trials + Covid-19 vax/masks + Jan 6th kangaroo court + unjust imprisonment + shredded records + judges against Executive powers! = civil war OR martial law!”

Recent massive unrest in Los Angeles over arrests of criminals and illegal immigrants and similar but on smaller scale elsewhere, is indeed the same as civil war arising from sedition openly espoused and encouraged by California’s governor and LA’s mayor.

Thus, President Trump had no option but to restore law and order by the equivalent of martial law. As Commander-in-Chief of US Military he called for the National Guard to assist Federal officers of ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement) and US Marines to be on standby (https://www.express.co.uk/news/us/2066027/LA-riots-LIVE-Trump-puts-US-Marines-on-standby-to-take-on-anti-deportation-protesters).

So, maybe the equation’s ‘OR’ should be changed ‘= civil war AND martial law’; and that’s without considering the active Continuity of Government military operation!!

SCOTUS v. JUDICIAL ‘COUP’

BREAKING: Supreme Court Limits Federal Judges from Blocking Executive Actions Nationwide

No longer can rogue, activist judges abuse their authority to dictate the executive powers of the President of the United States, the Supreme Court ruled — a massive victory for the Constitution, the rule of law, and the presidency itself.

Since the moment President Trump took office, low-level activist judges have been exploiting their positions to kneecap the agenda on which he was overwhelmingly elected. In fact, of the 40 nationwide injunctions filed against President Trump’s executive actions in his second term, 35 of them came from just five far-left jurisdictions: California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Washington, and the District of Columbia.

Now, the Trump Administration can promptly proceed with critical action to save the country — like ending birth-right citizenship, ceasing sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, stopping taxpayers from funding transgender surgeries, and much more.

The Supreme Court’s common-sense decision was rightly hailed as a huge win:

President Trump: “The Supreme Court has delivered a monumental victory for the Constitution, the separation of powers, and the RULE OF LAW in striking down the excessive use of nationwide injunctions … I was elected on a historic mandate, but in recent months, we’ve seen a handful of radical left judges effectively try to overrule the rightful powers of the president to stop the American people from getting the policies that they voted for in record numbers. It was a grave threat to democracy.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi: “Americans are finally getting what they voted for. No longer will we have rogue judges striking down President Trump’s policies across the entire nation — no longer.”

CNN chief legal affairs correspondent Paula Reid: “This is a big win for President Trump because he has been railing against these so-called nationwide injunctions … The justices are agreeing with Trump and limiting this power that judges have to block a policy for the entire country.”

CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig: “Such a big win for the Trump Administration and … the Office of the President.”

Attorney Jonathan Turley: “I think that the Trump Administration has very good reason to celebrate. These district court judges have really tied down the administration.”

Sen. John Kennedy: “Anybody who knows a law book from an L.L. Bean catalog knows that federal judges just made up this concept of universal injunctions … They just made it up because they don’t agree with what a President or Congress has done.”

MSNBC legal analyst Melissa Murray: “This is a huge win for the Trump administration.”

The New York Times: “A major victory for President Trump”

God-incidence: Jonathan Cahn confirms Trump’s God-sent mission, plus…

Posted on Wednesday, 11 June, 2025 by Richard Barker

Once again I’m stunned by the Lord dropping God-incidental jigsaw pieces whenever I get around to writing, even to the extent of changing what I’d intended blogging – as if He’s using a Global Prophecy Signals system [Digital Globe with Hand by Watcharakun, courtesy FreeDigitalPhotos.net].

In view of events over the ‘pond’ I was going to update relevant prophecies on Monday, however first I’d had in mind replying to uninformed comments on my Facebook, BUT instead got prompted to blog separately (previous post) in order to tell others of similar mind about what I’d learned about Donald Trump’s beliefs.

I wrote, “..some in the Lord need more information… and to seek Him direct about His ‘David’ and his God-sent mission…” (emphasis added).

Much later that day this powerful message from Messianic rabbi Jonathan Cahn God-incidentally pops up on my phone, its title confirming my words:

228,686 views. Premiered on 9 Jun 2025 #jonathancahnlatest #jonathancahn #trump

‘Trump has just come out with it to do what no president has ever done – Declare himself to be on a mission from God! Is he? And if so, what exactly is his mission? Is there an ancient mystery that reveals it & what is yet to happen? Jonathan Cahn opens it up!’

Here’s a screenshot from Jonathan’s video of one of Trump’s memes and captured ‘47‘ minutes after publication by President 47 (and my birth-year):

Extract from auto-generated transcript at 16:16 time-stamp regarding the assassination attempt in Butler, PA:

“That was just days before he’s going to be

nominated, as if an enemy wanted him

out but the hand of God saved his life

by a fraction of a second and a fraction

of an inch so much so that the bullet

actually hit him but didn’t take him out!

It was only after that that Trump said

so publicly so soberly so passionately

God had saved his life for a purpose for

a mission for America.

That bullet grazed

his head but it did more than that it

changed him where he was convicted,

convinced more than ever in his life

that it wasn’t about what he had planned

to do but that there was a greater plan.

God had a calling and a mission for his

life more now than ever before or in

Trump one, the first administration

and at the beginning of this

administration this term recent not long

ago he said that his relationship with

God had changed now was changed after

the assassination attempts something

changed and that has everything to do

with the purpose and the calling and the

mission of God it didn’t happen the

first time as it is now it was just like

that with Jehu but Jehu was one event that

just happened, interrupted him and

changed his life, gave him the mission.

Same with Trump. What mission then can we

find a secret here that actually I mean

you’re never going to hear it on CNN or

or or MSNBC or anywhere pretty much

because you have to see this in the

Bible.
What mission can we find it if we

look at the ancient template of Jehu what

was Jehu’s mission? The prophet says it

gives him the charge you shall strike

down the house of Ahab what’s the house

of Ahab house of Ahab represented the

institution or institutions under it of

Israel’s apostasy from God that were

leading the nation away from God it was

the elite the ruling class

leading the nation away from God

Jehu’s

mission from God was to strike it down.

Trump’s mission therefore is to strike

down first of all is to bring

something to an end to strike something

down

what the houses and institutions of

America’s apostasy from God that have

led America away from God. It’s the elite

or ruling parts of the culture that have

led America away from God. Jehu was

called to dismantle those houses those

temples of of the nation’s apostasy.

That’s why Trump is doing everything he

can to dismantle the houses and

institutions of America’s apostasy and

there’s something else; it wasn’t only

for Jehu to strike down the institutions

that were leading his nation away from

God but the other side of that

ultimately: the point is to turn the

nation back to God and that is Trump’s

highest mission from God whether he

knows it or not when he when he puts out

he’s on a mission from God … does he

fully know it to lead in turning America

back to God can somebody like Trump do

that? God will use whom God will use;

could someone like Jehu do what he did?

Well God will use whom he will use.

Jehu didn’t as far as we

know lead the nation back to God lead it

to revival. He did favor believers, he

did give them an honored place in his

reign just like Trump is doing, but we

don’t know that there was any revival,

and that was the whole point.
There was a

window for revival so when Jehu’s reign

was over the nation resumed its fall

from God so we have to pray now for

better things you know you know the fact

that Trump posts up this that he’s on a

mission from God it’s like a a prophetic

alarm for us believers of God to pray

that Trump would actually know and

fulfill his mission from God. …”

ALSO posted on Monday:

‘On Pentecost Sunday, thousands of believers across the nation made a public declaration of faith in what organizers say was the largest synchronized baptism event in American history.

More than 26,000 people were baptized as part of Baptize America, an initiative involving over 650 churches from all 50 states.

“The prayer of Jesus in John was that we would become one,” said Pastor Mark Francey, one of the organizers. “And I think that’s what we’re seeing right now — a unity around what we all agree on, which is water baptism.”

The event grew out of Baptize California, which began two years ago with 4,000 baptisms. That number jumped to more than 6,000 last year. …’

‘Jesus is the Resurrection of God’s Glory’ – part 2

Posted on Thursday, 5 June, 2025 by Richard Barker

Now to plug science into scripture of Hebrews 1:3, and just look at the effulgence of the Interlinear Greek:

Tangible evidence of Jesus being the ‘from-radiance of God’s glory’ may be found on His burial shroud, as noted in ‘What is the Importance of Shroud Science to Faith?’ (pdf 19 June 2020) on closing pages 20-21, emphases mine:

‘The voice of God that Pope Benedict XVI is referring to, for the first time resounded in
Bereshit, In the Beginning, saying (65) ‘Let there be light’. And John, the Apostle, then
writes (66): ‘Whoever says he is in the light, yet hates his brother, is still in the
darkness. Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is nothing in him to
cause a fall’. Therefore, the Light with which God enlightened the world is His Love.
Interesting that more recent studies show that a radiative photo-chemical process is the possible cause of the formation of the Shroud imprint (67), a process that certainly cannot be explained in a corpse.’ –

NB. Power required to produce image estimated at 34 trillion Watts!

67 Extremely important on this topic are the studies of Professor Giuseppe Baldacchini and of Professor Paolo Di Lazzaro. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZKT1wXtfzY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crrjqa7ynj8; http://www.sindone.info/BALDAKI1.PDF

Some important conclusions stemming from their studies are the possibility for an excimer laser to produce a permanent coloring of the linen not with a fixed light but through a light pulse lasting less than 100 nanoseconds. In particular, UV light allows coloring but only above a certain minimum wavelength threshold and below a limit beyond which the linen burns. Once the appropriate wavelength is found, the coloring appears superficial and does not fluoresce, just as occurs in the Shroud Cloth and the irradiated linen fibrils are fragile, as occurs in the Shroud. Tests performed on small linen samples indicate that to irradiate a sheet like the Shroud one would require 34 trillion Watts and there is no excimer laser of this power in the world today.’‘

Matthew 17 (NKJV) 1-9 reads as follows:

Jesus Transfigured on the Mount

17 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; ²and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. ³And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. ⁴Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, ^[^a^]let us make here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

⁵While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!” ⁶And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. ⁷But Jesus came and touched them and said, “Arise, and do not be afraid.” ⁸When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
⁹Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.”

Let’s not forget that some who’ve seen the Glory, eg David Strutt, say it makes the sun dirty by comparison!

‘Jesus is the Resurrection of God’s Glory’ – part 1

Posted on Thursday, 5 June, 2025 by Richard Barker

The above title just dropped into mind within seconds of awaking at 6.50am as I gave my day to the Lord. Mulling that over just before reading today’s Sanctuary diary, that ‘drop’ expands into ‘Jesus is the Resurrection-Radiance of God’s Glory!’

Since the reprise of He is Risen! – Time and Quantum effects in Jesus’ Resurrection, followed by a new post with video links relating to The Shroud of Turin I’ve wanted to write this to plug science into scripture, especially following subsequent Saturday Men’s Breakfasts started to study the Book to the Hebrews – and now ‘God-incidentally’ AS I TYPE, this song on the subject of my focus – and the link to which I’d already inserted at a mid-point of this new post as my very first action – begins to play on this pc:

Nearly 30 years ago I highlighted this awesome declaration in Hebrews in my then new NIV Insight Bible purchased for ministry training:

Moreover, in his quoting prophet Jeremiah’s hearing the Lord’s instruction as a potter moulded clay, David Strutt profoundly likens it to his actions in creating a painting:

‘If the clay inspired the prophet and he has troubled to explain to us what he saw, so indeed it may speak powerfully to us as a prophetic illustration. If we have seen the potter’s skilful hands coaxing a thing of beauty out of a chunk of mud, so we can see that God acts so (emphasis mine). I have never made a pot but I do paint and, when I do, it arises from a vision I have seen in my mind’s eye.’

He goes on to explain how he endeavours to bring forth the vision into reality, but on occasions something may not work and so needs erasing with turps.

Thus, today’s mediation confirmed what was in my own mind: that modifying the original ‘drop’ by combining ‘Resurrection’ with ‘Radiance’ is not out of order. I’d indeed heard well and it was and is again being expanded, now into a triple ‘R’:

‘Jesus is the Resurrection-Reflection-Radiance of God’s Glory!’

In Part 2 we connect this into scientific findings…

Richard’s Watch goes full-circle: 8 – false theology, BBC bias and anti-Semitism

Posted on Thursday, 15 May, 2025 by Richard Barker

WWW, wheels-within-wheels, continue to roll as dear Neil’s revisiting ‘RT’ and strong stand against anti-Semitism takes this blog full circle back to its beginning fourteen years ago in November when my emailing him and other friends on End-times went public. That month I’d already written about a broadcast theological debate and my very first item, after launching with a Welcome to the wider public, continued with a follow-up, viz

False theology and false history

As ever, ‘God-incidental’ timing is intriguing because Neil wrote his latest as a result of a “curious series of events happened over the weekend” (Psalm Sunday) exposing the need for a proper grasp of scripture’s relevance to our times, and he wishes to share:

“Saturday morning I attended a Men’s Breakfast…I went with no intention or expectation of speaking….

There was a guest speaker from America who I did not know, and have never heard. He started by saying that he had decided the best format for the meeting would be if we attenders where to ask any question we liked, and he would answer. There was a long silence; so, to break the ice, I asked “Do you think Gaza could be under the judgement of God?” there was another silence, then he said: “I don’t know about Gaza, but I think America is under judgement”.
I said: “I asked the question because the people of Gaza have been cursing Israel for at least 20 years, and probably 77. In the Bible God says that if you curse my people Israel you will be cursed: there must be an outcome”. He said: “it depends on who you think “Israel” is. It is not the land, it is the people of God who are now “Israel” and there is only one “people of God”. My comment: “that sounds like replacement theology”. He then said something about different dispensations and “grafted-in Theology”, at which point the host stepped in and said we needed to move on to other questions.”

The next day Neil was interrupted during conversation by someone saying she’d heard he’d been “controversial” at the breakfast – but the speaker was entitled to a different point of view. “I tried to explain that replacement theology is not just “a different point of view”. However, I could see I wasn’t going to get anywhere… I don’t know why what happened, happened, but I am convinced it was God engineered.”

The sadness is that very few people understood, or cared about, what had taken place. The woman’s belief that it was a fluffy little difference of opinion between two equally valid points, seems to be the consensus view.”

Such a clueless position, instead of taking a stand against hatred, it implicitly supports….

BBC and ANTI-SEMITISM

As a consequence of writing about ‘RT’ in November 2011 I noticed and posted many times in the blog’s first year on the BBC’s deeply biased reporting against Israel – hence the need for a BBC tag!

AND IT JUST SO HAPPENS that since Neil’s ‘God engineered’ encounters, relevant news emerged on Tuesday regarding a vastly overpaid sports ex-commentator:

Now, let’s get back to what holy scripture says, for this passage in Ephesians 2 featured the next day at a local house group:

Brought Near by His Blood

¹¹Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh—who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands— ¹²that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. ¹³But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

Christ Our Peace

¹⁴For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, ¹⁵having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, ¹⁶and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. ¹⁷And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. ¹⁸For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. (Ephesians 2 NKJV BibleGateway)

This points to God’s ultimate goal of all people, Jews and non-Jews, becoming united believers in Jesus Christ through His awesome grace. This is extensively explained in the books written to the Hebrews and the church in Rome.

SELAH!

HE IS RISEN! – Time and Quantum effects in Jesus’ Resurrection

Posted on Sunday, 20 April, 2025 by Richard Barker

First published in the early years of this blog and annually thereafter for newer readers:

In preparation for the Holy-days’ weekend Nina creates a tableau for contemplating Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection. She’s inspired about what items to collect and arrange, usually including a rock with a central hole eroded by the sea and which we found on a beach. It serves as both the ‘skull’ and garden tomb of Golgotha. For example, the above display has a scarf as a ‘river of life’ flowing out of the empty cave/tomb below the cross. (In 2012 it gave an insight that I’ll share below.)

Maundy Thursday is celebrated as the night when Jesus and His twelve, principal disciples ate the Passover Seder, or meal, in advance of the main schedule in order to be ready for His being the sacrificial Lamb of God.

Following the meal, one disciple betrayed Him by leading Temple guards to capture Him at night for trial by a ‘kangaroo’ court of Jewish leaders. It was a foregone conclusion that they’d demand authorisation of His death from Pontius Pilate, the Roman Prefect, or governor, of Judea.

If you’re unfamiliar with this true story and how it led to Jesus’ gruesome torture, death and burial followed by his amazing bodily resurrection and appearance to His disciples, read doctor Luke’s investigative account and the personal account of Jesus’ closest disciple John.

Later, Saul of Tarsus, a Jewish leader violently opposed to them, had a life-changing encounter with the Ascended Jesus en-route to Damascus. He became known as Apostle Paul and wrote that Jesus had been seen simultaneously by over 500 people post-Resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:6 refers).

HEAVEN & HUMAN HISTORIES’ PIVOTAL TIME

Jesus Christ died so that each of us may be forgiven for our sins. As a result of this new status, we can have direct personal access to Almighty God when we believe in Jesus Christ. As the Son of God, Jesus suffered on our behalf as our ‘scapegoat’. That is, Jesus took the place of death that we deserved because of our sinfulness, for the shedding of a sinless one’s blood was the only way our status could be changed for us to gain personal salvation. Paul explains it this way to the early church in the Rome:

⁸But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ⁹ Since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through Him! ¹⁰ For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to Him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life! ¹¹ Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. (Romans 5:8-11, NIV, see whole chapter.)

Now, when I was a new Christian I found that rather hard to understand – but it works! The theological term is ‘atonement’, or ‘substitutionary atonement’. In bringing forgive-ness to the guilty, however, this can cause deep problems for those who’ve been the victim of crimes. After all, why should a killer find forgiveness by God? And what about the victim’s families, or the victim of abuse? They find it very hard if well-nigh impossible to forgive.

In 2012 I heard a Portsmouth prison chaplain address this issue with a concept taken from the criminal justice system: restorative justice. This involves an active dialogue between victim and offender, plus reparation. And it has a sound basis in theology. How?

Jesus was a guiltless victim, directly of those who wanted Him killed, and indirectly of everyone’s ‘fallen state’ of sinfulness, which could only be rectified by His death.

And Almighty God, the Father, is a victim too. How? He’s victim of humanity’s rebellion against Him. For example and especially over the way religious leaders murdered His son – how they seethed with rage when Jesus denounced them! (read Luke 20:9-19). So, every victim can find an identity and affinity in both God and Jesus Christ in their situation. Hence, they can receive God’s own ability to forgive because He will help them choose to forgive those who’ve harmed them. [Lack of forgiveness may be the only thing that hampers God – see Matt 6:14-15]

A TABLEAU IN TIME

During contemplation upon the tableau illustrated above, an insight dropped into mind that the Resurrection created a distinct point in the flow of, or perhaps even a change in, Time itself. That is, the now termed ‘common era’ calendar is the medieval Christian one that counts years from the approximate birth of Christ as ‘anno Domini’. But in fact, a more powerful one would be the point at which things in heaven changed and thus affected our lives on earth and its ultimate role in God’s scheme of creation. This took place at the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, His revival to life from death itself.

That such a concept may be valid can be found in the discoveries about the material of ‘The Shroud of Turin’, the shroud in which Jesus was thought to have been carried and covered during His interment. It is of most astounding significance when examined from the view-point of modern physics.

Apart from the supra-natural or spiritual aspect, that unique, singular event could have naturally happened by means of a ‘singularity’ (a theoretical gravitational effect associated with ‘black holes’, eg. as may have been the starting point of the creation of the universe, or ‘Big Bang’).

Don’t take my word for this but consider that of Dame Isabel Piczek (deceased 2016), famous as a monumental artist and award-winning figurative draughtswoman. Her highly detailed analysis of theories about how the image on the shroud was formed is authoritative, as in the first of several detailed articles here.

Also, as a physicist who may have considered implications from a quantum mechanics standpoint, her conclusions about how the image was formed are most intriguing: it seems that the image of Jesus can only have been created by its hovering equidistantly above and below his reclining bent corpse. Furthermore, this necessitated the body’s levitation – perhaps not an impossible feat during the moment of the Resurrection power-blast?

After all, the disciples had already witnessed Jesus walking on water but were yet to be surprisingly but joyously stunned Him by His turning up in their midst, materialising, in a private room behind closed doors for fear of the Jews (John 20:19) – maybe quantum dynamics principle of ‘tunnelling’, as in On Engaging and Governing Time, came into play? – then forty days later watch Him flying bodily upwards into the clouds!

Dame Isabel succinctly summarises:

We have a piece of cloth and it leads us to a mysterious gateGoverni which opens for us, and it lets us see a completely different world, an extraordinary world with extraordinary laws.

Consider these claims by reading those articles and watching this 19 minute of extracts from the DVD The Fabric of Time (with its own lead-in trailer). There’s also a discussion of her scientific opinion at In Case You Missed Isabel Piczek’s Wonderful Paper.

‘Coincidentally”, just after having read the last link and revised the preceding references to science (post published 5 years ago), I’m alerted to theoretical physicist Mehki’s new post on ‘black holes’ and ‘event horizons’ (see Looking to the Horizon). The discussion thread has a valuable contribution from ‘physicalrealityblog’ that’s pertinent to the Shroud site’s discussion of Dame Isabel’s analysis and indirectly reconnects it back into quantum physics!
2017: ‘Coincidentally’ amusing that bloggers ‘hidden’ on opposite sides of the world (Britain and New Zealand) were preparing items on the fabrics that Jesus Christ was buried with – the full-body shroud and the head linen – in Joseph of Arimathea’s private tomb. My post updated on Wed 12 April 2017 was scheduled on Thurs 13th for auto-publication Sun 16 April. On Good Friday 14 April Joanne Rolston published news of the ‘Sudarium’ in AB-solute Proof – The Blood That Speaks.

Jesus’ Crucifixion described within the Holy Name of God

Posted on Thursday, 17 April, 2025 by Richard Barker

First published on this blog in April 2017:

According to Steve Maltz, author of God’s Signature, the only time the sacred, personal Name of God was spoken by the ancient Israelites was during worship in the Temple in Jerusalem, and especially on the Day of Atonement when the High Priest pronounced it ten times.

The Talmud has many warnings about using the most holy Name – it is also regarded as having special powers of healing. Apparently knowledge of its pronunciation was lost after the fall of the Temple in AD70 prophesied by Jesus Christ.

The knock-on effect of that event, together with the Roman Church’s withdrawal in the third Century of financial support for churches in the Holy Land founded by Jesus’ own ‘kith and kin’ (‘desponyni’), was the great loss of a full understanding of the Church’s Hebraic roots. Hence the confusion and doctrinal disagreements over Jesus’ claim, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” (John 14:10).

Digging deeper we encounter an astonishing revelation of that double-identity!

From translations of Hebrew, the post-Shakespeare English-speaking world referred to God’s Name as ‘Jehovah’ or ‘LORD’ (letter ‘J’ was then starting to replace ‘i’). However, Jews preferred well-known descriptive titles such as ‘Elohim’ – God, in all the fullness of His attributes; ‘El Shaddai’ – Almighty; ‘El Sabaoth’ – Lord of heavenly hosts; or Adonai’ – Lord, and more often than not the reverent term ‘Ha Shem’ (The Name) sufficed.

Scribes, or sopher, needed to take special care in praying before writing the holy name, which must be done without interruption. Were a mistake made, it must not be corrected but the whole page discarded and the page restarted. Numbering had to be carefully handled too because Hebrew characters represented both letters and numbers. So the logical way of writing 15 is to add a yod (ie 10) to a hey (ie 5) and likewise for 16 (a yod to a vav). But this never happened because, as part of the sacred name, they could accidentally be read as this name. The Holy Name is shown below, but read from right to left:

“Yod-Hey-Vav-Hay” first appears in Genesis 2:4 statement ‘The Book of Beginnings’ is the account of, “When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens”.This Name was first revealed when Moses encountered God in the burning bush after he’d asked Him whom should he tell the Israelites had sent him to get them out of their slavery in Egypt.

God replied, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you’. ” (Exodus 3:14 NKJV)

Steve writes, “Interestingly and contrary to popular belief, the Hebrew word used in this passage…is not YHVY (he shows Hebrew characters). So, what’s going on here? Is it His name or isn’t it? In this Exodus passage, the word used for His name is “Aleph-Hey-Yod-Hey”.

“This takes the meaning of “I will be”…(which) shares a similar three-consonant root with YHVY in Hey-Vav-Hey and Hey-Yod-Hey…and as they’re related are both ways of describing God”. Hence my liking of describing God as “Always” and “Now”, the latter being used by Charlie Shamp too.

HOLY FATHER-SON UNION REVEALED & THE CRUCIFIXION FORETOLD

As in those preceding links, literary Hebrew developed out of pictographic forms that represent gestures and their meanings. We logically surmise both original visual and later written forms were known to and, therefore, used by the Lord in communicating with Abraham and his descendants through Issac and Jacob, and used by Moses and his scribes in compiling the first five books of the Bible.

Comparing the literary and pictorial forms of the name Moses heard and recorded as being from the Lord, we have this graphic (credit Heart To Heart):

Hebrew is read right to left, ie ‘hand-look-nail-look’, but if we read as normal left to right we find not only the Name of God describing who He is, the fullness of His character and abilities, but also its exceptional prophetic nature in it foretelling the pivotal point of His action plan for humanity: the crucifixion of His Son Jesus Christ!

BEHOLD – A NAIL – BEHOLD – A HAND

AND THIS ‘WORD’ SHOWS TWO PERSONS!

Could this indicate that Christ was hidden in the Father when Moses encountered them at the burning bush but manifested as ‘The Angel of the Lord’ or pre-incarnate Christ ? It’s worth reading Exodus 3 carefully again and note Who is speaking to Moses…

Moreover, the pictographs graphically portray God as ‘hands up’ in connection with a nail. Putting all this together into one picture we get a typical image of Jesus on the Cross at Calvary, where long nails or spikes driven through Jesus’ wrists damage the median nerves thus making His hands bend into the ‘claw position’ – just like letter Yod!!

Jesus Christ’s identity hidden in the Bible’s first sentence

Posted on Thursday, 17 April, 2025 by Richard Barker

Tim Shey comments on the crucifixion post, “The First Word in the Bible says Jesus is God and He Will Die on the Cross” and he provides this excellent 10 minutes video:

The video was included when I posted the original of this item, which was based upon Jonathan Hill’s book Unlocking the Sign Miracles of John. I’ll tell more another day, but to continue:

ALPHA-OMEGA HIDDEN WITHIN GENESIS 1:1 (AS ALEPH-TAV)

In Appendix I (pages 202-203) on the meaning of number 37 and its palindromic partner 73, Jonathan says both form the numerical value for the fundamental Hebrew word ‘wisdom’. He tells how this pair play a role in a multiplication, the result being the precise number of the Hebrew for the creation verse of Genesis 1:1. He goes on to relate this to 666 and a diagrammatic representation, which he interprets as meaning:

‘This transformation represents the dispensational truth that at the second coming of Christ, the dominant spiritual hierarchy of the world changes from 666, the number of the ‘beast’, to 12 – the governmental number of Israel. All this information including this powerful intervention of God is elegantly and visually encoded in the first verse of the Bible.’

This claim continues by divulging this astounding mystery:

REVELATION 1:8, 11 – 21:6 – 22:13

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (NKJV, BibleGateway.com)
