Dearest companions at the “end of days,”

Our present events are very meaningful to us now. Events that we are presently in the midst of, are the great time of trouble described in the scriptures. This is the great tribulation. “Then shall be great tribulation (‘pressure, distress’), such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Matthew 24:21.

But what is this great tribulation, and what is so great that has never happened before? History is full of great tribulation, massacres, starvation, famine, tortures and other horrors. A body can only hurt so much. But the time of “pressure” and “distress” that Jesus was speaking of was not the suffering of physical pain, or even something the wicked can even recognize, since it goes deep into the soul. The wicked in heart are very shallow, and have no comprehension of anything like our own time of distress. The tribulation Jesus was referring to was the internal suffering that true believers feel when coming face to face with the powers of darkness. The famines and wars were only the beginning of sorrows, and these things we have already seen. When Jesus was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane he said, “When I was daily with you in the temple, you stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.” Luke 22:53. Another reference to the “power of darkness” is made by Paul: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12.

Jesus named the chief priests, captains of the temple, and the elders, stating it was their hour and the power of darkness. They were “the rulers of the darkness of this world” and the possessors of “spiritual wickedness in high places.” I have named the judges, the district attorney and even religious forces as the rulers of the darkness of this world. A spirit worked in them and moved them in order to deceive the public and destroy the people of faith by destroying me. After reading the State’s answer to my appeal, there is no doubt in my mind that we are dealing with “spiritual wickedness in high places.” We are naturally creatures of law and order, since we are God’s children. To be charged with crimes, and to feel satanic attacks internally against our faith, is a trial that we have never had before. We always thought that America would guarantee our faith, but our eyes have been opened to the nature of man everywhere. If he has not the Life of God in him, he is a despot.

Jacob’s “time of trouble” was when the Angel came and wrestled with him all night by the brook Jabbok. The Angel thoroughly exposed Jacob’s faults and failings to him, in order to deliver him and bring him a blessing. But Jacob was also assaulted by evil spirits in high places, accusing him for his sins and causing him to feel hopeless. This was at the very time his brother Esau was coming against him to kill him for having taken Esau’s birthright many years before. The younger had received the birthright of the elder. Now it felt to Jacob like heaven and earth was against him. This was “the time of Jacob’s trouble,” and such a time of trouble was never experienced by him before and never would be experienced by him again. This time of distress was greater than any physical suffering could be of itself, but it culminated in a full deliverance from his sins and self-focused ego. The word Jabbok means “to be made empty, utterly,” and this is what happened to Jacob there.

Jeremiah also refers to this time of trouble for God’s people:

Ask now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? Wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas! for that day is great, so that ‘none is like it.’ It is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. Jeremiah 30:6-7.

This is the time of trouble such as none was before or after. It has to do with a severe internal warfare that only happens once in a person’s life, when we come face to face with not just demons but Satan himself, at the very core of our human ego. It feels to us like a death decree against us. Internal and external forces are threatening us with extinction; we are surrounded by threats from the world and from the spirit. It’s all about everything — spiritual and physical. Many professed believers give up the faith at this time and yield to the enemy, in order to be out of this trouble. Truly this is a death decree for actual believers in God. Antichrist seeks to crush them out; he seeks to destroy our inheritance, claiming it for himself.

Jesus’ great time of trouble was in Gethsemane and on his cross, when the powers of darkness came strong against him. Physical pain was not his greatest trouble; his sweating great drops of blood came from the internal war, and this war was his pain. He even asked that the cup be removed, for he did not feel his humanity could bear the assault. He felt forsaken of God. This was a time of trouble such as never was for Jesus, nor ever would be again.

This severe internal process which people of faith are called to go through in their personal time of trouble, was reflected in the Jewish feasts during the yearly Day of Atonement, when they would not eat or drink. “You shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all…for on that day shall the priests make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that you may be clean from all your sins before the Lord.” Leviticus 16:29-30. Now in this antitypical Day of Atonement, when we feel the assaults of Satan from without by the dark forces, and the revelation of our own natural selves by the messenger of God, we are full into the time of trouble. There can be no “change” without this atonement.

There will be a literal, physical time of trouble for the whole earth, but God’s people will be delivered from the wages of sin; they will not suffer the disaster that man is now bringing upon himself. They will be delivered from death, as Jacob was saved from death at the hand of Esau, because they have been “made utterly empty,” as he was. This time of Jacob’s trouble that we are now in will bring a deliverance.

For, note well, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will release from captivity My people… For it will come to pass in that day [2300-day Day of Atonement], says the Lord of hosts, that I will break the oppressor’s yoke from your neck, and I will burst your bonds. And strangers will no more make slaves of them, but they will serve the Lord their God, and David’s descendant their King, whom I will raise up for them. Therefore fear not, O My servant Jacob, says the Lord, nor be dismayed or cast down, O Israel; for behold, I will save you out of a distant land, and your seed from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease, and none will make him afraid or cause him to be terrorized and to tremble. For I am with you, says the Lord, to save you; for I will make a full and complete end of all the nations to which I have scattered you, but I will not make a full and complete end of you. Jeremiah 30:3, 8-11.

Little family, this is our present great time of trouble as a little company, and we have never had anything like it before, nor shall we ever have it again. But God has “hidden these things from the wise and the prudent, and revealed them unto babes.” Matthew 11:25. These issues that we have had to face with the powers of darkness, during this final time of Atonement, were clearly revealed in the Scriptures, and are now being unfolded in the seven last plagues which are falling upon mankind. But only “babes” — the innocent and pure in heart, who don’t flatter themselves that they already know everything — discern them. The lovers of the world cannot appreciate the value of the time of trouble. They naturally love a lie, and move into a lie whenever threatened with the appearance of the truth. The natural man is a criminal, and they are criminals who have come against us. They must lie to sustain their true inner belief that there is no God, even though they may profess faith in one.

Nearing the end of the seventy weeks of years, as you will remember, seven virgins came to me and told me that they knew just which plague they each would be pouring out upon the earth. Just before that time, two of the virgins came asking to be naked in my presence as they shared their hearts. They came within one day of each other, and totally unbeknownst to each other. I immediately felt that God was moving in this and doing something special, because it was so highly unusual and had never happened before, and so I consented. I took a long walk soon after that, to consider these strange events, and the Father revealed to me that seven of our young people would be pouring out the plagues upon mankind, for the time had come for them in the prophetic timeline. What this would actually look like, whether in symbols or in actuality, I did not know.

I asked the young people in our land to ask God what part they were to play in this. There were seven who stepped forward and each knew from God, without consulting each other, which plague they were being given to pour out. I saw that the nakedness represented by the virgins who came was a picture of all the saints in the time of the end — the time of Jacob’s trouble. We are all naked in our heart of hearts before God, confessing our most intimate failings and heartaches, with no walls of self-protection, self-defense, self-justification or the slightest dishonesty. And this baring of our hearts comes at the very time the powers of darkness are coming against us strongly and threatening us with extinction — just as it was with Jacob. The wicked come against us strongly, for they know that if we are victorious, and prove faithful, they are finished, and their lie is exposed for what it is. They can only win if we fail.

It was during this time of atonement that the virgins began the process that would not only deliver God’s children, but would bring an offense to the earth so great that it would cause damnation to those who love sin. John the Revelator reports this event: “And I saw another sign in ‘heaven’ [God's congregation of true people], great and marvelous, seven angels (‘messengers’) having the seven last plagues (‘wounds’ or ‘stripes’).” Jesus used this word for “plague” to say “stripes” in Luke 12:48: “And that servant which knew his Lord’s will and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.” The same word was also used by the apostle Paul in referring to the troubles that God’s people would experience: “In ‘stripes,’ in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in watchings and fastings; by pureness, by knowledge, by long-suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned.” 2 Corinthians 6:5. This word is also translated “wounds.” So the seven plagues are stripes, or wounds, inflicted upon the world by the messengers of God who are anointed by Him for the task, and in which God’s true people are patient and faithful, for in these wounds appears the great time of trouble for them, necessary for their deliverance. In Revelation 15:6 John describes the messengers and what they did: “And the seven messengers came out of the temple having the seven plagues (stripes or wounds) clothed in pure and white linen, having their breasts girded with golden girdles.” Revelation 15:6.

The earth saw the messengers dressed in white. The people saw them with golden girdles across their breasts, as was described in the Scriptures. The earth mocked, and made up stories out of their own perverted minds; but it was their omen of judgment, and the coming wrath of God. My Counsel during trial, Sarah Montoya, truly spoke under inspiration as she began her Closing Argument:

May it please the Court, Counsel,

“And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.” This is here in the book of Revelations. Is that why we’re here? Why are we here? Are we really here because a church in the mountains did a reenactment of a Bible passage from the book of Revelations?

This “reenactment” of the pouring out of the plagues, which the earth had so bitterly mocked our symbolic enactment of, was taking place that very day in the courtroom. Sarah could have said, “This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.” Luke 4:21.

In Revelation 16, verse 1, the angels are commanded to pour out their vials.

“And the first went and poured out his (or her) [gender is non-specific in the original language] vial upon the earth, and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.” Revelation 16:2.

“…he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth…” John 3:31. This wound or stripe from God only caused a sore in those with the mark of the beast. If this plague were a physical substance poured out on the earth, everyone would have gotten sore; but this plague was specific to those who thought a certain way. Their forehead, or thinking, had the mark of the beast upon it, the mark of man. That is, they had a hu-man interpretation of the things God did in our land. They had the earth view of things, instead of heaven’s view. This will finally prove their own ruin.

But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged by no man. For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:14-16.

So children, we know what God has done in our land, and why; but those without the Spirit come against us, for they know nothing.

So this first plague was poured out on the “earth” — the earthly thinking of those who judged divine things from their own low, degraded point of view of the natural flesh. It was this hu-man way of thinking and judging that caused them to react to God’s “stripe” in the way they did. Others did not have the same reaction as those who worship the beast (or the State), thinking as it thinks. Those who reverence the State above God would be worthy of a sore, for they were offended in God’s revelation which was poured out in the vial of the heavenly messenger.

The first plague began falling upon men on December 12, 2007. It was poured out when men watched The End of the World Cult movie about us, first aired in the UK soon after the seventy weeks of years concluded on October 31, 2007. So heaven poured this plague out into the earth, and those who worshipped the State, or beast, erupted with a great internal “sore” over what they saw portrayed in the movie. It was the truth revealed in that movie which plagued the wicked and self-righteous. When the Son of man appeared in the movie, the righteous knew the truth; they could clearly see it. But the wicked and self-righteous were sent “a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie, that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12. Their “pleasure in unrighteousness” caused them to find agreement in their hearts with the filmmaker’s immoral insinuations about the Son of man and what God had done in our land. They could only view Michael from their own perverted context. Those with the mark of the beast became very “sore” over what God had just poured upon them. Because they didn’t love the truth, it made them to believe a lie, and it poisoned their soul. A cancer of the spirit appeared in them. They were sore, especially over the testimony of the “Son of man,” because they were unfamiliar with the testimony of Jesus. Their own “Santa Claus” religion did not prepare them for his appearing.

Soon after the first plague caused a great sore, the second plague was poured out upon the sea. The Scriptures define the sea: “But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.” Isaiah 57:20.

And the second angel poured out her vial upon the sea [the wicked mass of mankind], and it became as the blood of a dead man, and every living soul died in the sea.” Revelation 16:3.

So when the wicked, the troubled sea, saw the movie and a later version put out by National Geographic, and rejected and scoffed at the work of God, they became blood. Their spiritual instincts to life, in regard to God and to the people of God, all died in them, and they could only cast up mire and dirt. We saw this mire and dirt upon the blogs and in emails sent to us. Some of them created websites to attack us, and this mire and dirt even appeared on Wikipedia, an encyclopedia that likes to project itself as objective and true. This mire and dirt is swine’s swill, and it is the result of the second plague upon them. A “swine” is one who turns and rends you when you reveal truth to it.

This then led to the third plague:

And the third angel [messenger from God's true people] poured out her vial on the rivers and fountains of water, and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters say, You are righteous, O Lord, which are, and were before, and forever shall be, because you have judged them like you did. For they have shed the blood of the saints and prophets, and you have given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. [They had shed our blood with their lying attacks upon us.] And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God almighty, true and righteous are your judgments.” Revelation 16:4-7.

The angel is saying, “Since they shed the blood of God’s people, let their own life be taken from them.” Their life in the Spirit then ceased.

Those ‘fountains’ are the pure waters of wisdom that normally flow in the soul. “The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.” Proverbs 13:14. Now those fountains have turned to death in those that received the third plague. Jesus said, “He that believes on me, as the scriptures have said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” John 7:38. This living water that would naturally come from their belly, would now be death. The law would now become perverted, and the truth slain. The “pulpits” of the land, such as the media, the churches and the courts, which were meant to be a spring of truth and a river of justice, would turn to blood, and only death would flow out of them. They were now all allied to kill the Son of man as they were 2000 years ago.

As the first plague was unfolding, the media came against me. Then, at the time of the second plague, the pressure of the mob was seen. Then, the State’s legal apparatus went into action to kill our church, particularly the Son of man, at the time of the third plague. Because of their offense over the seven angels from heaven (representing the whole church of God), they falsely accused me of sex crimes. They invented their story because they didn’t love the truth, but wanted to believe a lie instead — and this is what turned them to blood, or spiritual death. So now blood is all they will have to drink. Their fountains and rivers of living water would be turned to blood, but this was a just wound for them, for they loved blood. They bloodied the people of God, and by this they were bloodied. As it is written, “All they that hate Me love death.” Proverbs 8:36.

This third plague fell in the spring of 2008, when finally the State had me arrested, after it had kidnapped our young people. I was then released, pending trial, and this led to the fourth plague:

The fourth angel poured…her vial upon the Son/sun; and power was given…him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which had power over these plagues: and…they repented not to give him glory. Revelation 16:8-9.

The Scriptures define the Son:

But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun (Son) of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And you shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, says the LORD of hosts. Malachi 4:2-3.

There is a wonderful revelation in this. There were two underage females who asked to lie naked on my bed. The one I was convicted over was the one who told me that she was the angel who would pour the vial upon the Son/sun. It was she who empowered me to scorch men with fire and to tread down the wicked, and this was done through those “incendiary” posts, as the Deputy DA Benavidez described my writings on our church’s website. The judge then ordered me to stop publishing my “incendiary” posts, but the plague had already been poured out upon men, and they blasphemed God by calling His own acts and instructions to the soul something fleshly and immoral, and falsely charging the Anointed with sex crimes. The scorching heat would come from the Son of righteousness — the Child of Righteousness who had arisen within me — and the wicked were thereby trodden down and burned to ashes. This great heat began in late spring and summer of 2008. Our posts were “scorching” because they consistently and unrelentingly revealed the lie of the State. They exposed those with the mark of the beast, and it made the wicked furiously hot. The Son is still heated up, scorching men with fire, since when a plague falls it keeps falling, concurrent with new plagues as well as those previously released.

After this, the angel poured out the fifth plague:

And the fifth angel poured…her vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongue for pain, and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and the sores, and repented not of their deeds. Revelation 16:10-11.

“The seat of the beast” is the court system. Even national leaders must obey the court. The very power of government comes from this “seat” — the court. There is no greater king than the court. So this fifth plague was poured upon the court, and all light was extinguished, so that the court only had darkness. But darkness is not painful unless it is internal darkness. Those who receive this plague “gnaw their tongues for pain.” The darkness is obviously in the soul, causing great offense. In the jury deliberations at the conclusion of my trial, it was reported to me by some that they heard arguing and shouting in the jury room. After the verdict, one juror mouthed the words three times toward me, “I’m sorry.” I never knew why she was sorry, but something foul was in the jury room, and it was great darkness. They could see nothing, and that led to convicting the Son of man for something that never happened. They falsely convicted the just, for no crime and with no witness testifying that a crime had occurred; and this condemned their own soul. It was appropriate that Healed poured out this revelation of darkness, for I was acquitted for touching her, but condemned for touching her sister in the same way. Also, Healed wrote a letter protesting the DA’s darkness, and it was given to the jury as well. She was the angel God anointed to expose the darkness of the seat of the beast.

Months before this plague of darkness was poured out upon the court by Healed, the Father had given me a clear vision concerning her. It was during the day, and not a dream while sleeping. In the vision, I saw Healed standing facing me, with her parents behind her as if presenting her to me, but no light was on their faces. On the day of my conviction by a dark court, the DA let Healed visit with me a few minutes in the jury room, and I saw her just as Father had shown her to me in my vision. She stood in front of her parents, and her mother and father stood behind her, exactly where Father had shown me they would each be standing, with no light on their faces. I told Healed then that the jury had just judged themselves. The court had just revealed its great darkness by the verdict handed down. The seat of the beast stood condemned for having no light.

The fulfillment of this vision there in the jury room marked the time of the revelation of Healed’s plague of darkness upon “the seat of the beast.” It was December 15th, 2008, when the plague was revealed by the one anointed to carry it out. There is no court on earth darker than one that convicts a man for something that never happened, for a crime that the State’s own witnesses stated clearly had not happened. This conviction was not a mistake. It was an intentional act by the beast and false prophets. The State was not interested in the facts, it was interested in a conviction. The trial didn’t reveal what Michael did, but what the State did. Antichrist would not be thwarted, but this brought to them great darkness, and the spiritual tongue gnawing that goes with it.

But the darkness of “the seat of the beast” was to be even more exposed. Two weeks after my conviction, “the seat of the beast” sentenced me to ten years in prison for a crime that the judge himself stated on the last day of my trial there was no evidence for. He can be heard on the official court recording telling the DA and my attorney at a bench conference during closing arguments, “There is no evidence to support that there was ever a touching of the breast.” The darkness of “the seat of the beast” could not have been more dense. During my trial, and even after conviction, I was released until sentencing. This was evidence that they knew very well I was not actually a danger to anyone. Ten years in prison was a sentence exposing them.

These events are part and parcel of the saints’ great “time of Jacob’s trouble,” for God was using these things to remove His people from the last of their earthliness. But while “the seat of the beast” was in darkness, there was Light in every dwelling of the saints. The issues of the world were revealed to us in crystal clarity, and it has caused us to be ready to leave it. We saw the earthly facade for what it is; we saw the lie that they live by, and it freed us from them.

As with Jacob and his time of trouble, his worldly brother, Esau, was coming to kill him because Jacob had stolen his birthright. And now our earthly brother was coming to kill us, because the birthright of the sons of God was taken from them and manifested in us. It was our “time of trouble,” as it was for Jacob, because of the jealous hatred of Esau. This is also why the Jews hated Jesus and the early Christians — because the birthright had been transferred to the younger, and they were jealous of it. They did not value the birthright of the sons of God, so it was taken from them and given to those who would cherish it. Matthew 21:43… “The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.” The kingdom is given to the younger.

The sixth vial contains the most vile plague yet. This is only the first part:

And the sixth angel poured out her vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. Revelation 16:12.

The river Euphrates, as you know, was the river that protected the ancient city of Babylon. That river was protecting, nourishing and giving solace to it at the very time King Belshazzar, in his drunken orgy, served wine in the golden vessels that had been stolen from the temple of God. Divine retribution came when Cyrus, a true type of Christ — God’s “messiah” or “anointed” for His purposes — diverted the river, exposing Babylon and laying it wide open for its overthrow. The king of Babylon turned to blood that very night, when he mocked the God of heaven by his actions. His “seat” was in great darkness.

Today, the river Euphrates represents that river of information and solace that has kept Babylon thinking itself secure. I began diverting this river when I published the truth as it actually was, concerning our events and the designs of the beast. My appeal attorney also exposed the riverbed, diverting the water so the people of God could see the bottom. As the State’s flood of intentional lies and confusion has been diverted, so that God’s people could see to the bottom of the issue — that no crime was committed, even according to New Mexico’s own laws — the way has been made for all of God’s children to overthrow the confusion and power of Babylon over their own lives, through the power of the truth. These are the “kings of the east,” the people of the Son-rising, and this monumental event is revealed in the great angel’s cry of Revelation 18:

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven [out of the true people of God], having great power; and the earth was lighted with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” [Song] Revelation 18:1-2. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues (stripes or wounds). Revelation 18:4.

One must come clear out of Babylon or he will think like Babylon, getting “sore” over those things that one would not be sore at if he were sane.

From the earth’s side, the river Euphrates is the money system of modern Babylon, that so many in the world trusted in until it began to dry up. As I have posted the untempered truth exposing Babylon’s corruptions, and the dollar collapsed, its river of protection and solace has dried up. When people see the truth, the lie no longer has anywhere to hide. Then people saw the nature of the dollar, and that it was based on nothing but false promises and financial sleight of hand — based on confusion. This also took away its perception of security. A nation cannot live on a river of printing press money or computer digits. My attorney also, in the appeal brief, exposed numerous problems with my trial, revealing that it was not a fair one. Way back in the beginning of my pre-trial hearings, my trial attorney Sarah Montoya appealed to the judge, who was now presiding over his first jury trial, to quash the Grand Jury because it was not lawfully seated. She asked the judge to quash it so that we could back up and do it right. Judge Baca told her that he would leave the issue with the Appeals Court, and so he intentionally let the error stand, saying that the law in regard to the Grand Jury was only “a suggestion.” Are New Mexico’s laws just suggestions? Are drug laws only suggestions? Are people put in prison over broken suggestions?

Because Babylon is now being exposed, and the State’s river of lies is turned aside by the truth, it makes extra strong efforts to protect itself. John the Revelator foresaw their efforts to this end, which would bring on the next and most vile issue of the sixth plague:

And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon [the spirit of antichrist], and out of the mouth of the beast [the State — specifically, the Attorney General's office], and…the false prophet [all who falsely testify against us]. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth to the kings of the earth [these "kings" are governmental authorities — in this case now the appellate judges] and…the whole world, to gather them to the battle of the great day of God Almighty. Revelation 16:13-14.

We now come to the most vile part of the seven plagues: “three unclean spirits like frogs,” which are “the spirits of devils, working miracles,” go forth to gather all men to war against the people of God, but most particularly against the one who rides upon the horse. “And I saw the beast [State], and the kings of the earth [judges], and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.” Revelation 19:19. But there is now something very revealing within this portion of the sixth plague, right after the “spirits like frogs” go out. This insertion clearly reveals the issue to the people of God during the sixth plague, so that they do not become confused and ashamed. In verse 15 we read, “Behold, I come as a thief (a criminal). Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”

The Son of man, in his coming, is made to appear as a thief — a criminal — by the lying spirits like frogs, croaking that this “self-proclaimed messiah” took what was not his — the prerogative of touching a naked body to heal the soul. The people of God are warned here to keep their garments — their robes — and not lose them, or they will be naked and ashamed. I have already seen this happen. Jesus’ disciples saw his crucifixion, and heard the charges by the mob, and they did not keep their garments but became naked and ashamed, because he “came as a thief.” Jesus now appeared as a common criminal and was crucified, as I have been, and they became embarrassed and afraid for their own lives.

The “three unclean spirits,” croaking like frogs, are working with all their force to make me appear as a thief, while it is they who are thieves — taking what is not theirs, sitting in the temple of God showing themselves that they are God, while accusing us for letting the God of heaven sit in our temple. “Behold, I come as a convict” — made to look that way by the beast, the dragon and the false prophet.

The reason these “unclean spirits like frogs” come against me so strongly is that they are well acquainted with the One Who appeared in me. “The devils believe and tremble” (James 2:19) when they hear my testimony of His appearing, and it is their intense hatred of Him that makes them broadcast nefarious propaganda out of their own hearts, projecting their imaginary inventions onto me, in a frantic attempt to keep everyone they can from recognizing and believing what God did. The unclean spirits know very well Who was in me, performing those acts of healing touch that I was convicted for.

The Scriptures say that these “three unclean spirits” are “the spirits of devils working miracles.” What are these miracles they work? “Devils working miracles” make things appear as real that are not really there. These miracles are the demonic “sleight of hand.” They are the calculated deceptions of the “three unclean spirits like frogs.” Jesus had to face these unclean spirits in his day, and this elicited one of his strongest rebukes:

And I also say it again to this generation: “If God were your Father, you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do you not understand my speech? even because you cannot hear my word. You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, but there was no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from himself: for he is a liar, and the father of it… He that is of God hears my words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God. John 8:42-47.

So now we come to the scriptural example of these demonic “miracles.” It was foretold in the book of Daniel just how they would look during this current time of the 2300-day antitypical Day of Atonement. Daniel wrote that a dark, deceptive power would arise, describing exactly the “three unclean spirits like frogs” spoken of in Revelation:

…And in the latter time…when…transgressors are come to the full, a king [the DA] of fierce countenance, and understanding how to deceive, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power [because his power is given by the State]: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy (literally, “go in to ruin”) the mighty and…holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause deceit to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace [professing peace] shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes [which is the Anointing that is in Michael]; but he shall be broken without hand. And the vision of the evening and the morning (the 2300 days prophecy) which was told is true.” Daniel 8:23-26.

A helpful insight into the biblical language is that to the Middle Eastern peoples, any wonderful success in an endeavor is viewed as a “miracle.” And the deceptions of this dark power certainly appear to be prospering wonderfully. But the vision and the promise are true, and we shall see his power “broken without hand” at the end of the days. The last sentence in the above passage in Daniel, specifies the very time in history during which these deceptive “miracles” would occur. This is directly referring to the antitypical Day of Atonement, and the time of trouble for God’s people.

Little family, I want now to give you several examples of how the “three unclean spirits like frogs” have actual frog characteristics as they have gone out to the kings or judges of the earth to gather them against me. God uses very specific images to tell a specific story, and He likens these foul spirits to frogs because of some very specific traits. It is quite revealing how the various defense mechanisms that frogs use when they feel threatened are the very same defense mechanisms we have seen working in the “three unclean spirits like frogs” coming out of the mouth of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet during the time of the sixth plague which we are now in. I will mention here just a few that I have observed:

I read recently that there are three known species of “poison frogs” used for arrows and darts, corresponding to the “three unclean spirits like frogs” which are “spirits of devils working miracles.”

I quote:

Scientists know of only three frog species used for this purpose [making poison darts or arrows]…The deadly poison is found in the frog’s skin, making it too toxic to touch. The [natives] pick them up with waxy leaves and then dip their blow dart in the frog’s skin secretions. Just a tiny drop can kill the birds and small mammals that the Indians hunt for food. No larger than a bottle cap, a single golden poison frog Phyllobates terribilis can supply enough poison for 30 to 50 darts, and the dart’s poison remains active for up to a year….The poisons in these tiny frogs come from their diet… San Diego Zoo, Amphibians: Poison Frog

Just so is the poison of deceit in the mouths of those who feed on the “miracles” produced by these unclean spirits like frogs. “Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaks deceit… Shall I not visit them for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?” Jeremiah 9:8-9.

Another frog characteristic that these “devils working miracles” have is the confusion tactic of “throwing” their voice. This is a defense mechanism that many frogs use to make it appear that they are calling from one place, while they are actually calling from another place, much closer. This is what the frog-like unclean spirits do to confuse the real issues when they go to the “kings (judges) of the earth.” They appear to be calling from one place – an allegedly broken “law” – while in truth they are calling from another place — their own political agendas, religious prejudices, unclean imaginations and jealousy over someone they cannot bring under their control. Through deliberate deception, they gather the kings (judges) “to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.”

Another way many frogs attempt to keep themselves safe is by hiding under rocks and in holes. This, too, is characteristic of “the kings (judges) of the earth,” and all who receive their “spirits of devils working miracles”:

And the kings (judges) of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb. Revelation 6:15-16.

Because you have said…we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: …Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD…the hail [of the seventh plague] shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place [falsehoods]. Isaiah 28:15-17.

Some frogs endeavor to keep themselves safe from perceived threats by releasing a stream of foul-smelling urine. This frog pee can sometimes travel long distances — even up to six feet. This reminds me of the media, through which the beast releases its foul streams of excretion from the “unclean spirits like frogs,” which can travel long distances. These foul streams that come out of the mouth of the dragon, beast and false prophet, are peed out upon all those it perceives as a threat because it doesn’t like the way their truth-telling is messing with its deceptions.

Then there are the “hairy” frogs, that protect themselves by actively and intentionally breaking their own bones in order to produce wicked, claw-like weapons from them. The broken bones puncture their way out of their toe pads, producing claws, when the frog is threatened. We have seen those with the “spirits of devils working miracles” actively and intentionally break their own laws in order to produce wicked weapons from their broken laws, against those that they feel especially threatened by. We watched them do this repeatedly in my legal process, but especially in the State’s nauseating attack against my appeal.

The unclean spirits like frogs that go forth to the authorities of the earth, working their “miracles,” come out of the mouth of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. The “dragon” is Satan and antichrist, full of deception, and inhabiting the lower parts of the earth — the more degraded levels of human consciousness. He is a liar and a dictator, forcing the conscience of all he can. The “beast” is an animal without godly reason, but only functions as an animal, preserving its own life at any cost to any other creature in its way. This is the character of the State. The law reads, “A reviewing court must view the evidence in the light most favorable to the State.” And the false prophet is one who prophecies falsely; he tells his story in order to deceive, to maintain the worldly order and its illusion of “peace and safety” in people’s minds, when there is none. He is able to promulgate the appearance and feelings of it among those who function like a “beast” — caring for little beyond their own creature comforts and survival.

I have just finished reading the State of New Mexico’s “Answer Brief” to my appeal. Much of this “Answer” is distorted, twisted, and shows intentional dishonesty. It is far too long to speak of all the issues here, but I will address the major issue repeatedly brought up throughout the “Answer Brief.” The “Answer Brief” makes the false statement that I conceded the fact that I was in bed with A.S., and she was naked at the time. No, I was never in bed with A.S., and I never conceded such a point. There are many things in this “Answer” that I protest the dishonesty of and the gross distortion of, but there is one issue throughout that shows especially clearly the “frogs” working miracles to make something appear that is not. The State’s entire “Answer” forcefully makes the point that I touched the sexual part of the breast of these two females I was charged over. I never did do that, and the two females clearly stated in court that I did not do that. Yet the unclean spirit that comes out of the mouth of the “beast” asserts constantly that I did do that. It croaks and croaks and croaks, throwing its voice, making something that does not exist appear as if it did exist.

Consider this analogy. Let us imagine that there is a law against touching the leg above the knee on any person under 30 years of age. There is no law against touching the leg below the knee, however. Let us now picture a man touching the leg below the knee while helping a lady put her shoes on, at her request, and being arrested for that act. The State now charges the man for a crime, because the woman was questioned and she reported being touched on the “leg” at her request. The man is sentenced to prison for 10 years for touching the woman on the “leg,” even though that portion of the leg was not illegal.

This little story gives a clear illustration of how the beast has dealt with me. The State knows full well, by the testimony of its own witnesses, that I did not touch the sexual portion of the breast. Yet the State continually asserts that I did, because A.S. used the general term “breast” (like the woman in the story used the general term “leg”) to describe the touch.

Babylon means “confusion, by mixing.” Confusion is defined as “mis-taking one thing to be another; a disorderly combination of elements, with identities lost and distinctions blended.” This is well illustrated in the State’s Answer Brief to our Brief in Chief.

Just one example of this is how they broke their own law regarding the element of “violating bodily integrity,” in intent and in application, in order to convict me. By the end of the trial, the State had abandoned the elements regarding “sexual arousal” and “sexual intent,” and they were forced to construe “violating bodily integrity” in order to try and get a conviction. And all they had to use as “evidence” was my gentle, carefully placed touch and kiss on the skin (sternum/clavicle area) for healing.

These deliberate convolutions by the attorney general’s office are evidence that an unclean spirit like a frog is now coming out of the mouth of the beast (State). They are dishonest, greasy, and reveal how the man of sin uses “dark sentences” and “craft” to bring about his own purposes. It is clearly evident that the beast — the State — has received all six of the plagues so far.

I have often shared with you how the world of the Spirit has an earthly counterpart. The same unclean spirits that have come against our church, and me in particular, can be seen in world affairs. One current example of this is the beast’s agenda of deceit against the nation of Iran, and particularly its president. The beast continually charges Iran with trying to make nuclear bombs (like it continually charges me with “touching the breast”). They also charge Iran with wanting to annihilate Israel. The unclean spirits continually beat this drum; they continually “croak” something that is not substantiated by any actual evidence, but only things construed by a “miracle” to look as they want them to look. They go to the “kings of the earth” (the United Nations), causing it to appear that they are calling from international “law” (international threat of “nuclear weapons”) while in actuality they are not calling from that place at all, but from another place (feeling threatened because Iran isn’t bowing its knee to the beast’s world domination). So these “spirits of devils working miracles” are gathering the whole world against Iran by threats and sanctions, just as these same unclean spirits have used their “miracles” to gather the world against me. But why? I will tell you:

And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand [their labors], or in their foreheads [their thinking]; and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark…of the beast, or the number of his name [that no man can live his faith, or his belief in how things should work, unless he has the mark of the beast]. Revelation 13:15-17.

Iran is a separatist nation who refuses to bow and take the mark of the beast. As a nation, it might be the most honorable one on earth, because of this stand. We are a separatist church who refuses to receive the beast’s mark, number or name. We have followed our Father’s word and Spirit to every degree. The beast has done the same thing with Iran as they have done with me, except they use “nuclear weapons” instead of “sexual touching.” In regard to Iraq, they used the miraculous statement of “weapons of mass destruction” when there were none.

In the mind of the beast, an independent, separatist church is the same as an independent, separatist nation. They want to cause all, “both small [a church] and great [a nation],” to take the mark of the beast. In one way or another, and by way of the “miracles” of the unclean spirits like frogs, croaking out their charges, they purpose to gather all the world against everyone who refuses to assimilate into their borg, and put an end to them. Not everybody in the world knows about me, but everyone knows about Iran, and the issue is exactly the same. And so everyone on earth, who is alive, is now being judged by this — whether they will believe the lie or whether they will accept and acknowledge the truth about this kind of conscienceless spirit affecting mankind. The beast power croaks out the lie that other nations are not free, and that one must have the mark of the beast to be free, while his own kingdom is a slave state.

The truth is, no one in our church accused me of touching minors sexually, or molesting children, or having sex with kids. Those charges only came from the unclean spirit like a frog who came out of the mouth of the beast, and they became exceedingly pronounced during the vilest part of the sixth plague. When those kinds of things were talked about in court during my trial, they were shrouded in prejudicial insinuations and inferences, especially by paid witnesses. But in the State’s “Answer Brief” to my appeal, they became grossly accentuated. They turned into charges, bolstered by dirty guessing and nasty suppositions that were never spoken in court. This is illegal. The only things that an appeal court can address lawfully are things spoken in the trial. But the dirtiest tactics and the most vile lies, now pouring out of the mouths of the three frogs, are right on time for this part of the sixth plague.

Dearest Family, I would like to interject a little thought here, at the end of the sixth plague, to put a little light on the events of our time. I will soon enter my seventieth year of life. I have seen a lot in my time on the earth, and I have paid close attention to all of the events and what they could mean. Some of you were born later into this life, and relatively recently, and have thought our way of life in the natural world was “normal.” But I have seen a great change that has alerted me to the times. A subtle losing of the mind has occurred in them.

Yesterday I had a candid discussion with two inmates. They were sharing about their life in prison, and in the prison system, where inmates murdered each other, and the guards also would murder inmates. I was astonished at a world I never knew, and how the prison system itself is full of corruption and competition of one gang against the other. What they meant was, one gang was the gang of correctional officers and the other gang were the inmates, and they would compete over drugs and shady deals, cheating each other while doing business. One of the men told me of a prison mental facility he was in, where they were drugged so much that they could not move. Then some of the aides would use the men for sex. I saw my lifetime naivete over America. I used to think that the nation had a pure heart. That illusion is long gone from me now.

One inmate then described his life of crime. It seemed that if it were illegal, he would do it. He shared with me how he would steal cars, kill people who threatened him and rob sources of cash such as Brinks and banks or other “providers.” I think I was listening to a true criminal, and one who carries no remorse or conscience in regard to any of it. But as I listened to him, I saw his face change into Ben Anthony’s face, of Dragonfly Productions and National Geographic; or District Attorney Gallegos. With an awesome awareness, I saw that the men who created the movie about us, and then charged me with a crime, were no different than this man. We were attacked by “the other gang.” We were robbed and murdered and our children kidnapped without any remorse by those who hated us and wanted to use us for their own advantages. Just as this inmate was unjust, and cared not for the law, so were Mr. Anthony and the State of New Mexico. It was just a different gang who came against us, and the law actually matters little to them. Our honor and faith were stolen from us and made to appear criminal. Those powers who came against us because of our faith, pretending a crime had been committed, were the same lawless souls that are in any prison. They just work for a different gang of offenders — the gang who owns the cattle feedlot.

When I read the State’s “Answer Brief” from the attorney general’s office, I saw the same treachery as was manifested in the testimony of my fellow inmate. We had not hurt the State of New Mexico, and we had obeyed all the laws, yet for their own self-interest they came into our land, raping and pillaging and molesting us through their agencies and media. These murderers and thieves have no conscience or remorse for their gross attacks upon people of faith. They will serve themselves at any cost to anyone else in their way. Some people get away with their crimes because the crimes of the beast have been made legal for its workers, but they are the same crimes as committed by those in prison with me.

Last night, in a vision of the night, the Father opened to me the overall picture. I was in my home, and I was listening to two “Christian” missionaries tell of their missionary work in glowing terms. In the next scene, I had traveled to their mission, and was looking over the beautiful house that they worked out of. It was a beautiful and modern mansion, built in a Spanish style with a flat roof. I looked out the back of this mansion, which was situated in Africa, and saw millions of head of cattle in one gigantic feedlot, too large to see the end of. Then I became conscious of the words, “Son of man, behold mankind.” The workers in the feedlot died on a regular basis for their employers. But they were willing to die, for they got to live in a run-down house next to the cattle yard with their family.

I awakened from the dream and lay upon my bed considering it. It was the middle of the night, and I thought upon the vision for about an hour before returning to my sleep. I dreamed again of the house, and saw its massive and charming beauty. On the roof of the house were the words, “U.S. Home.” I considered these words and what they could mean. I entered the house and this time there were people inside. I spoke with them about what they were doing. A man approached me and commented that the home was a “church.” They called it this because there were perceptual benefits to being called a church rather than a home. Rather than being called a “U.S. Home,” they called it a missionary church. Their missionaries were actually human manipulators for the business of the feedlot. “U.S. Home” was actually a business built to take the whole world into its feedlot.

I asked, “What do you do about people who protest? Are there those who fight you for taking their land and freedoms away?”

“Yes,” the man smiled; “but we take care of them,” meaning, “We just kill them.” A business created in the name of God had missionaries whose only work was to place the multitudes in their feedlot, awaiting their slaughter.

I awakened. This was an awesome vision of our present world. It clearly explained the basis of their attacks against us. They came against us because our children were not in their feedlots for calves, called public schools. I healed in ways that told them we were not in their feedlot for adult cattle, either. So they just killed me — put me in prison — because I was not in their feedlot, or working for them to put other cattle there for them.

Before I finished talking to my fellow inmate, he said, “What they are doing to people now is keeping the population from thinking, just as was done in Russia. They don’t want the population to figure them out. They want to keep everyone really stupid.”

I said, “I wonder when they will stop me from writing?”

He said, “When they kill you.” Then he left.

Truly, children, our young folks were taught to think and reason. Those who are with us can still think and reason. But the souls in the feedlots called “megachurches” and public schools, as well as political parties, can’t actually reason things out. They just await their slaughter. And people like us are stomped out because we make people think. We tell the cattle that there is a life outside the feedlot. We cause them to consider. The charges they levied against me in their criminal attack, only make sense to the cattle in their feedlot. Those who start thinking that they might like a different life, remember the cattle prods and decide to stay with the mob of other cows and the stench. It hurts too much to break free. The modern-day cattle prod is the threat of prison.

But people who think are not dumbed down enough to accept what their handlers tell them. The TV today is the major source of mental debilitation thrust upon the souls in the feedlot. They are taught to have many opinions, about just about anything, but they cannot reason. They cannot think. The beast takes care of them, educates them, feeds them, medicates them and enslaves them — and the most intelligent thing out of their mouth is, “Moo.”

So children, we come to the finality of the plagues. The last event now opening up is:

“And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon (‘mount of the gathering’).” Revelation 16:16. Armageddon is the final place of confrontation just before the seventh plague falls upon the people. It is the place where all men can see which side they are on. So now, all nations are being gathered against God’s people at the mount. The beast and those with its mark and those with the spirit of antichrist, and all the false prophets, gather against God’s people to slay them, for they have imposed a death decree upon us. They want to kill us out forever, so that their camp of human slavery and astonishing illusions may remain secure. They want to play God in every man’s temple, pretending to be the voice of God and pretending that they have the right to be so. Now we are nearing the end of this sixth plague, which comes at the end of our “time of trouble.” “Jacob’s trouble” will be over when the seventh plague descends.

And the seventh angel poured out her vial on the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven [that's the people of God], from the throne [that's God's voice in them], saying, “It is done.” And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city (Babylon) was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. Revelation 16:17-21.

When Jesus was at the end of his crucifixion (his great time of trouble), he said, “It is finished.” We will soon say, “It is done.” With Jesus, it was the end of his generation’s sixth plague. “Three unclean spirits like frogs” took him to the cross by croaking out their false charges from their own vile imagination, with the motivation of killing him. In his day, the “beast” was Rome. The dragon and the spirit of antichrist was in the Sanhedrin. The false prophets were all saying that he did things, said things and meant things that only came out of the evil spirits who inhabited them. When the seventh plague fell at the time of Jesus, it was with his resurrection. His resurrection swept away the refuge of lies, and the stage was set for the destruction of their world (Jerusalem).

Jesus tells us there will be an end to our own tribulation:

Immediately after the tribulation of those days ["the time of Jacob's trouble"]…shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Matthew 24:29-30.

When Jesus first appeared in his messianic role, he was “the sign of the Son of man.” But when he raised from the dead, and 500 with him, and then when the power of God came into his people at Pentecost, the Son of man appeared again in power and great glory “in the clouds of heaven,” just as scriptural imagery foretold. He appeared in “a great cloud of witnesses…” (Hebrews 12:1), and He appeared IN them, precisely as described by Paul: “When he shall come to be glorified IN his saints, and to be admired IN ALL them that believe…” (2 Thessalonians 1:10) Just so, at the end of our tribulation, there will be a deliverance, just as there was at the time of Jesus. This will usher in, for this generation, the era of vengeance.

Old Jerusalem and its fall was a model for this present world and its fall. In the seventh plague the scripture says, “…and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.” That is to say, at the time of the seventh plague God remembers to give great Babylon the cup of the fierceness of His wrath. As we know, the time of His wrath comes after the antitypical Day of Atonement. He won’t forget.

I love numbers, as you know. It is interesting for me to find that from the beginning of the first plague to the time of the seventh plague is 966 days. That is 483 days x 2. That is 69 weeks of days x 2. As Daniel records, the 483rd day brings one to Messiah. This would fulfill Revelation 14:14: “And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one…like…the Son of man (a human). As you know, this scripture marks the time for the thrusting in of the sickle of wrath. God’s people will come “in the clouds” with the Son of man.

…Behold, the Lord comes with (also translated “in”) ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of their ungodly deeds… and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. Jude 14-15.

There is no word on how long the seventh plague will play out, but personally I expect the events to begin unfolding soon, and early in that plague’s era. I also have not been given yet to predict just how events will look to the eye. But as always, and as with the first six plagues, we recognize them for what they are when they come.

Jesus was a “sore” to his generation. His presence turned their own waters to blood. He became “incendiary” at the end, as seen in Matthew 23. His trial was full of darkness, and no one could see any light in the court. His false charge and crucifixion began drying up their river of support and solace, and his resurrection swept away the refuge of lies. I expect there to be likewise in our generation, many actual, factual plagues during the general destruction and final fire. But I cannot say how long, or how much of it we will see; for there is a promise for us to return to our Home before the final fire.

The deliverance Jesus was promised at the end of his time of trouble, after giving his life up to a physical death as a sacrifice, was the resurrection. The deliverance we have been promised after our time of trouble is the “change,” when we receive a new body without physically dying.

No, the wicked don’t ever believe these kinds of things. Jesus said that it would be just as in the days before the flood — “they did not know until the flood came and took them all away.” He said this of the coming of Christ to Jesus’ generation, and of Christ’s return in ours:

For as the lightning, that lightens out of the one part under heaven, shines to the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation. And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. Luke 17:24-30.

I have always wondered why the Bible says the people “repented not” (Revelation 9:20; 16:9, 11), when these horrific plagues are so obviously “in their face.” The answer is that they are not so obvious. The people don’t repent because they don’t see the plagues for what they really are. They suffer from them, they feel their effects, but they don’t see. They don’t realize, when they are watching that movie about our land and making those judgments, “gnashing their teeth” and feeling mean inside — that a plague is falling on them. They have come to think these things are “normal.” No; normal is noble, cheerful, and helpful at all times. But when a person becomes evil and offended inside, that is the evidence of a plague. Real, actual events are being transacted in the invisible realm of the spirit, and they know it not. When hatred and offense are one’s motivating force, a plague is felt. This causes internal consequences in the soul. They may have smooth skin on the outside, but putrid boils and sores are on the inside.

Only those with the Holy Spirit can see things as they really are, and God made it to be this way on purpose. Otherwise, everyone would “repent,” purely from a motive of self preservation. I mean, who wouldn’t repent of something if they knew they would get their head whacked off if they didn’t? Everyone would follow God to save their neck. Every inmate in this prison would do that. But they would be “saved” without the change of heart that is needed to make them safe to enter heaven after the earth is destroyed; and God can never allow that. If He did, heaven would fill up with sinners, and the whole mess would start all over again. That is why He requires people to have the Holy Spirit in order to be able to “see” and repent and be saved from the final fire that destroys the earth. So He does not remove every opportunity to see things wrongly and judge from an earthly, merely human point of view. This is what separates those with oil in their lamps (the Holy Spirit) from those who have none; those who come to the Marriage with a wedding garment on (the Life of Christ appearing fully in them) from those who come wearing the garment of their own filthy thoughts and feelings. God knows who are His, and only they can hear Him, and recognize His movements for what they are while there is time to come to atonement.

It is the same with the mark of the beast. Like the plagues, it is a spiritual context and not an external thing, although it has many external, physical expressions. I feel it everywhere, being forced upon the people by the spirit of antichrist, and most would not even suspect it. But children, those who have the spirit of antichrist can spot you a mile away; they know very well if you have their mark or not. Their side knows it as well as ours does.

As always, we will wait and watch. We will stay in the promise as it is written. So little children, be as though you know everything, yet know nothing. Be as though you possessed everything, yet possess nothing. Be the first in any endeavor, yet be the last. Ask for all things, and yet ask for nothing. Here is the end of the matter:

And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles [manufactured its lying tricks and wonders] before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. Revelation 19:20.

I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. Daniel 7:11.

But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.” Daniel 7:18.

I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them, [only] until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came when the saints possessed the kingdom [that, of course, is the end of the time of atonement]. Daniel 7:21-22.

But the judgment shall sit, and they (the saints) shall take away his (the beast’s) dominion, to consume and…destroy it to the end. And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. Hitherto is the end of the matter. Daniel 7:26-28.

So, little family, let us rejoice and be glad, for we have been told clearly how the story ends. We know how the movie comes out, for we have read the Book.

Psalm 119:126… It is time for the Lord to work, for they have made void thy [the] law.

Love,
Michael
