God works with the Jews for 5000 years

First, they were mainly in the Promised Land for about 2000 years in the Old Testament until they crucified Messiah, and He turned to the Gentiles.

Secondly, for about 2000 years during the seven church ages, the Jews were the broken-off branch that entered Heaven only if they were martyred for being Jews.

Then, right at the end of the evening-time seventh church age, the Jews come back from the spiritually dead as they revive, and the 144000 meet Christ during the 3.5 years of great tribulation.

Thirdly, the one-third of the Jews who survive great tribulation and Armageddon, end up in the 1000 years of Peace when Jesus sets up His Kingdom on earth.

Then this earthly life is over.

The sea explodes and there is a new earth.

The feeding of the 5000 is the only miracle recorded in all four Gospels.

This symbolizes God’s Plan of working with the Jews for 5000 years.

God gave them the Old Testament and Israel, which are the shadow or outline of the New Testament. They were given the Bread of Life, Jesus, as the fulfillment of the New Testament but they rejected Him, and they rejected His preaching. This is symbolized by the scraps of meat and bread (symbolizing doctrine) that they threw away. The disciples collected these rejected scraps into twelve baskets. This represents the disciples writing up the New Testament that the Jews had rejected.  Then, at the end of the 7 church ages, during the 3½ years of great tribulation, the New Testament will go back to the 144000 who come from the twelve tribes of Israel. The 144000 Jews will be reconciled to Jesus. They will then rule the world with the Bride during the 1000-year Kingdom of Peace.

Let us see how Noah established a foundation for this Plan.

GENESIS 8:7   And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.

The last ice age was at the time of the Flood. God pushed the earth a little away from the Sun into deep space that is bitterly cold. That explains why the Beresovka River hairy mammoth in Russia was deep frozen in minutes with flowers and grass in its mouth and stomach that could still be identified.

Corpses of drowned animals would decay very slowly in the cold. The raven happily flew from one rotting corpse to another.

The raven represents spiritual error that is all around. Thus the raven never returned to the truth of Noah.

Water represents the masses of people, nations, and tongues that swirl around with hidden currents or agendas as the majority dominates.

Once you start with your unscriptural words it just becomes a flood of man-made opinions and concepts that have taken the Jews

and then the churches far away from what is written. Pharisees and Sadducees were never in the Old Testament, yet they were the religious leaders of the Jews who rejected Jesus, the Word of God.

Jesus replied to Satan with, “It is written …”

So please just tell us what is written. If you are able to follow His example.

Singing and music become shows of self-centred ego gratification, like Hillsong churches. Drums are never mentioned in the Bible. Man-made error is always popular and sustains itself as it leaves the Scriptures.

Pagan customs are like rotten meat, but they fascinate us. Churchgoers celebrate the birthday of the pagan Roman sun god on 25 December. The Bible never asks us to celebrate the Lord’s birth. Good Friday and Easter Monday, with unscriptural Easter eggs and Easter bunnies, are all not in the Bible. Ishtar eggs and Ishtar bunnies were a Babylonian Spring worship of Ishtar the goddess of fertility, in March. It was a sex orgy. Nine months later in December the child was born and his birth celebrated in mid-winter.  Same-sex marriage is an abomination that the churches condone, and allowing divorce and remarriage is very wrong. Believing these unscriptural things, as well as unscriptural ideas from pagan Greek philosophy like the Trinity, God the Son, one God in three Persons, Father and Son are coequal, Father and Son are of the same essence, and the pastor is the head of the church, are dangerous pagan ideas. We easily become spiritual ravens. The churches lose the name of God and say, “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” because they do not know what that name is. The Triune God of three Persons has no name because you cannot find one name for three Persons.

Spiritual ravens jump from one unscriptural idea to the next one as they become increasingly Bible-illiterate and thus never return to believing that the King James Bible is perfect. The rotting corpses of paganism were more exciting to the Jews and to the church-goers.

Thus the pagans got in first. Nimrod set up the mysteries of Babylon under the control of the Babylonian Priesthood. They were ruled by a dictator, the Pontiff.

Today the Pontiff is the Pope.  He is the only dictator in Europe. Nimrod’s paganism has survived 4000 years. Do not underestimate the antichrist pagan spirits. They have been around a long time and are very clever.

GENESIS 8:8   Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;

A dove is a symbol of the Holy Spirit. God chose a nation, Israel, to worship Him and be an example to the rest of the world.

God sent forth the Israelites under His personal guidance, using prophets. But they wanted a king who could rule as a dictator. This is the seed of the Nicolaaitans.

For 2000 years after the Flood, the Holy Spirit of God was above the Jews as the Father. The Pillar of Fire.

The waters of pagan gods and pagan customs covered the earth as God tried to establish His Word in tiny Israel, a land that occupied less than one-half of one percent of the world’s land surface.

GENESIS 8:9   But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.

But the Jewish Law was unable to overcome the waters of pagan religions. The feet of the dove stood on no land.

In Daniel’s Gentile image, the feet represent the seven church ages. That is, the time when the Holy Spirit was in the church, not just above it. The secret that was missing in the Old Testament was that God was not in the hearts of the Jews. He was the Pillar of Fire above them.

But in the Old Testament time of Babylon (the head) around 600 BC, the Medes and the Persians (the chest and arms), the Greeks (the loins), and the pagan Romans (the legs), God’s Holy Spirit found no rest in Israel and the earth, for the sole of her foot. The real rest is the rest from sin. That would only happen after Calvary. The Jews had the Temple, but they had been corrupted by Babylon's mysteries and money.

GENESIS 8:10   And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;

In the Old Testament, salvation belonged to the Jews. But in the end they failed and crucified Messiah and lost out.

Despite all the good things that had happened in the Old Testament, their rejection of Jesus meant that the Jews were a total loss. They had swallowed the waters of Babylonian mystery and pagan antichrist spirits were still rampant.

The other seven days symbolize God’s other Plan, the 2000 years of the seven church ages during which the apostles' original truth was lost in the Dark Ages and then restored again.

GENESIS 8:11   And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.

In the evening time of the seventh church age the Gentile prophet from America restores the original truth of the first church age of the apostles.

The olive leaf in the mouth of the dove speaks of the evidence of the indwelling Holy Spirit.

JOHN 16:13   Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:

The Holy Spirit reveals the mysteries of the King James Bible so that the wise virgins of Matthew 25 can understand the Bible verses and get ready for the Coming of the Lord.

DANIEL 12:10   … but the wise shall understand.

Only at the end of the seven church ages (evening time) is the full Bible truth restored. Then the restored Bible truths can move across to the 144000 Jews.

The olive leaf is a mystery. Green foliage has been destroyed while the earth was covered in water.Green leaves could not just grow back in a week. Thus, God had performed a miracle. This miracle symbolizes the modern-day miracle of the restoration of Israel despite the vicious hatred and attacks of all the Muslim countries and their useful but idiotic stooges in the Western universities who endlessly condemn the Jews.

GENESIS 12:1   Now the LORD had said unto Abram,

GENESIS 12:3   And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Nobody who opposes Israel today will be in the 1000-year Kingdom of Peace. No Jew-haters will be in the Millennium.

GENESIS 8:12   And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.

God’s Day is 1000 years long.

II PETER 3:8   But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

Genesis 1 mentions six 1000-year Days in which God prepared the earth for mankind to dwell on.  But 7 is the number of completion. So, sin entered sometime on the seventh day and God’s Plan, His big Week, was never completed.

The Millennium or 1000 years of Peace will be the seventh Day of God’s big Week. That is the true Sabbath Day. A rest from sin when Jesus rules the earth.

Noah kept the dove for another week so that he could release it at the end, on the seventh day. The seventh day symbolizes the Millennium or 1000 years of peace.

At the Coming of the Lord, the dead saints will be resurrected in glorified bodies. Then the living bride will have their sinful bodies changed into glorified bodies.

A sinful body cannot live for 1000 years.

GENESIS 2:17   But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

You die within the 1000-year Day that is measured from when you were born. Methuselah lived longest, 969 years.

Death is our final enemy that limits us.

At the end of the 1000 years of peace, the Bride will all have lived for 1000 years in their glorified bodies. That will be the final proof that they are free from the curse of original sin, which is to be born from sex.

Then the Bride will be let free in eternity and does not return to any of the limitations of this sinful human body that we were born in.

Our final crown of reward will be a glorified body that never grows old, never experiences pain, and never dies.

When the 1000-year Kingdom of peace is over, the sea will explode and destroy the surface of the earth. Then there will be a new earth and eternity will set in for an amazing sinless future.

Final note.

The only other time that Jesus fed a crowd was the 4000. The disciples then collected 7 baskets of rejected scraps.

The New Testament preaching that the Jews rejected was collected by the apostles and written up as the New Testament that would feed the church throughout the seven church ages. Only by getting back to the original apostolic teachings, can we find truth in this last church age.

The 7 Gentile church ages last 2000 years and have to fulfill the types and shadows of the 2000-year old history of the Old Testament Israelites.

The 7^th church age ends at the Coming of the Lord when the Bride are changed into glorified bodies.

Thus, 4000 years of history influenced the Gentile Bride before they got their perfect, eternal bodies.
