Carefully Updated in January of 2020.

One day, I was asked to define my views on the Illuminati, and what power - if any - that Christians and Messianics might have over the Illuminati. This article formed from my reply to that question. In my understanding, the Illuminati is a catch-all term for the secretive, rich power-mongers and the political institutions, political parties, corporate businesses and banking organizations that these rich and powerful people have founded. In addition, these secretive organizations and institutions appear to be behind every great political, religious and economic movement and major war in recent history. These secretive groups include the Freemasons, the G-8, the Trilateral Commission, the Order of the Garter, the Skull and Bones Society, the Council on Foreign Relations, and many others.

The Illuminati are also considered to be totally behind setting up the political, economic and ecumenical religious factors that will help to establish the New World Order, which is the New Age, Antichristian theocratic government that the Antichrist will set up one day soon. The New World Dis-Order (so-called because it is the opposite of Yahshua's Kingdom of Love in that it will tolerate all religions except the one that Honors Yahshua's Name) will be successfully established for a short time. However, the movers and shakers in all the evil branches of the Illuminati do not realize that our God Yahweh will use this final evil Totalitarian Empire to divide the sheep from the goats. He will decisively be able to see who among the people on Earth that are left behind after the 1st Rapture will become sheep of the Good Shepherd and worthy of everlasting life, and who will be worthy only to be thrown into the Lake of Fire at the end of time. So it is God’s Will that the New World Dis-Order where people will love evil more than good shall form as a vehicle for Divine Judgment.

The Illuminati organization that has shaped the world we live in according to Lucifer's life-destroying plan is made up of many rich Elite people from all nationalities and religious backgrounds that have two things in common. First, they worship Lucifer aka Satan by worshiping the Creation rather than the Creator. They worship the evil spirits within themselves, and the even more wicked spirits of the Earth that are the spirits of the dead Nephilim children of the Annunaki, or Fallen Angels, as good deities that came to the Earth to show mankind how to become equal to the gods in beauty and knowledge. 

As such, those in the Illuminati share the Gnostic Esoteric belief that the Creator God of the Bible called Yahweh Elohim and His Son Yahshua or Jesus are the devils that created material and spiritual things that can be corrupted, and then allowed everything to be corrupted so that everyone would sin or rebel against God and thereby be divorced from communion with God and be in need a Savior to restore their fellowship. Of course, the Christian and Messianic see this as the choice of a benevolent God of Love that didn't want to love a bunch of robots, but a group of loving and kind individuals that CHOOSE TO LOVE HIM rather than Lucifer. 

The Second thing that the Illuminati organizations have in common is that they are all connected to the demonic Nephilim bloodlines that all the ruling Elites have in their veins. They not only worship the Devil who poses as the Angel of Light called Lucifer, but they are related to him by blood as the descendants of the Nephilim children of the Fallen Angels that took human women as wives. But because the Illuminati worship Lucifer, they do not have any real power over those who are redeemed by Yahshua's blood in eternity, and who call on His Name in love and trust Him by Faith. Also, despite what so many fear-mongers are saying, I do not think the Illuminati are truly in charge of anything. Rather, it is Yahweh Who is in control because He can see eternity! God is eternal, and as such, He exists in every dimension of time and space, and He knows EVERYTHING. God knows the beginning from the end, and He foreknew the plans of the Fallen Angels, the Nephilim, and their Illuminati descendants long before they became adept at corrupting His once perfect and good Creation. 

Despite the plans of the Illuminati, God is orchestrating His own purpose and Will in the world through His own human servants, and the organizations His servants operate and control behind the scenes. Furthermore, these godly organizations are even more secretive than the Illuminati. Yahweh also has His holy angels working in the world to achieve His own aims despite the best laid plans of Satan, his demonic army, and his wicked followers. So, to all my fellow believers in Yahshua, I want to encourage you by saying: “Do NOT give way to fear, but trust in Yahshua. Love Him and His Father and Spirit alone, and pray always that God the Father will watch over you, and deliver you from the coming trouble!”

Though God is our best protection, and He alone gives us the strength to endure hardship and find peace and solace, the Illuminati have plenty of money and influence, and they use it to their advantage whenever they can. Many of the people in this secretive organization may be demonically controlled or possessed, and many of them believe that they are gods. Therefore, they are often like the Buddhists that worship their ancestors rather than God. Some of them also openly worship Satan or Pagan gods - and like Satan - some of them want to be worshiped. They also want to control the world, and enslave most of humanity.

The trouble is that the world the Illuminati want to subjugate and control is passing away, and is destined to be replaced by a better Creation. Yet they are too full of pride in their own power, too full of hatred towards Yahweh, and too full of evil plans to destroy God's plans to care. In fact, many of them think that they can defeat Yahweh God because they think that Satan is the true Creator of all Creation, and that the God of Israel is the Devil! Hence, the Illuminati think Satan is more powerful than Yahweh and His Son Yahshua.

Most of the people identified as players within the Illuminati are Gnostic in their spiritual world view. This means that they see the future in the exact opposite terms that Christians and Messianics do. Like the Gnostics of the past, they twist every spiritual thing around. They see Yahweh as the Devil and Yahweh’s followers as vermin to be destroyed. This is sort of like what the radical Muslims believe, and so the Illuminati are using the Muslims to help them take over the world. But the Muslims will never be the dominant ones. The Illuminati will eventually subjugate the Muslims too. The Illuminati, as the supporters of the Antichrist, will eventually enslave and work to destroy everyone who doesn’t worship them and the Nephilim spirits that have infiltrated the natural, carnal world with their lusts and desires as gods.

Besides the fact that powerful people in Politics, Economics, Commerce, and Religion are members of the Illuminati, many entertainers, actors and actresses, and musicians are Illuminati darlings. Sadly, by their constant symbolic gestures and behavior, many entertainers are blatantly showing the world that they worship Lucifer, and that they lust after every material and physical perversion he offers them for pleasure. There is also a good deal of talk that some of the top Illuminati leaders may be “aliens”, which means that they may be Fallen Angels or Nephilim, which are the demonic half-angel, half human hybrid beings that may look like very tall and robust human beings, but aren't fully human. Nonetheless, though the Nephilim and their offspring may feel invincible at this time in history, Yahweh God has incredible power over them, and He and His holy Angels are stronger than Lucifer or any Fallen Angel or demon.

Despite the power that believers have in the Name and by the Blood of Yahshua, however, there are many satanically-inspired human institutions that are operating behind the scenes to destroy our faith in Yahshua, and thereby destroy our ability to do miracles and bend the physical laws of reality for the common good, just like Yahshua did. This is because these secretive organizations and people are engaged in a spiritual battle that Yahshua already won for us on the Cross:
Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 
True Believers are well protected when they pray in Yahshua's Name, and with His character. But for the rest of unsaved humanity, that fierce spiritual battle continues to rage onward while the Illuminati advance their plans. Sadly, all the unsaved people in the world are sitting ducks to their schemes, from which many of these unsaved souls will perish.

But Praise Yahweh God for Yahshua His Son, whose shed blood and love for His disciples has provided a clear way of escape from the evil schemes of wicked men and demons, which will come in the form of the Rapture for those who are born-again. So keep looking UP, and pray that you will be counted worthy to escape Satan’s evil plans, which will escalate and climax before being destroyed during the coming Great Tribulation.

The photo attached to this article shows the giant bronze stallion in the Denver International Airport. As one can see, it has big, glowing red eyes, like a demon might. This is likely no accident, but - along with the bizarre apocalyptic murals that could once be found in that same airport (and which I hope to discuss at length one day because of all the symbolic Illuminati code for their plans that they contain) - it may be a sign that something very sinister is going on underneath it. For example, it's said by conspirators that there are huge Illuminati sanctuaries built under that airport with lavishly furnished, lighted and heated apartments. They  domiciles are filled with all the physical comforts, and there are supposedly huge underground reservoirs of clean water, medical supplies, and food stored there. It is also being said that, at the first sign of World War III or God's Wrath, the Illuminati and other elites of the world are planning to flock there in jets and hunker down until the Apocalypse is over. The Book of Revelation speaks of this time in connection to the Opening of the Sixth Seal, when the Wrath of God will begin to be fully poured out on the world:
REVELATION 6:12-17, THE OPENING OF THE SIXTH SEAL: “I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. 13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. 14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. 15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, 16 and said to the mountains and rocks, ‘Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! 17 For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?’”
To me, it sure sounds like - after the Rapture - a great many of these wicked rich people are going to be terrified when they realize that the surface of this current world is going to be completely destroyed, and their underground sanctuaries will eventually prove to be useless. As good as their technology might be, it will NOT be able to indefinitely protect them from God's Wrath during the Great Tribulation! There will, however, likely be supernaturally provided places of refuge on the Earth for the Tribulation Saints that are saved and sanctified after the Rapture.

These places of refuge will also be provided for the Jews who accept Yahshua as their Messiah before the end of the Great Tribulation. This is what I have been shown that the 144,000 Witnesses - who are devoted servants of Yahweh God Most High - will be responsible for providing to the Tribulation Saints. They will not only preach God's Word and fight demonic forces, but will provide physical and spiritual protection for those who are born again as true children of Yahweh after the Rapture. This is suggested by many Scriptures that I don't have time to go over right now, but will one day soon, hopefully.

There is one more Scripture that I would like to focus on that is pertinent to this discussion because it shows the powerlessness of the Illuminati to thwart God's plans. This Scripture indicates that some Jews and Christians that will be living in Israel at the time that the Antichrist's armies are about to surround it will escape by fleeing to the cavernous ruins of Petra that are in the Kingdom of Jordan.


Petra is the ancient city that was literally carved into the walls of a naturally sheltered canyon. It is called Bozrah in the Bible, and it once was a part of the land of Edom, which is now found divided up between Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen. This was the traditional ancient land of Esau and Ishmael, and their Arab descendants.

This scripture is found in Isaiah Chapter 63:

~*~ Isaiah 63:1-4 ~*~
“Who is this who comes from Edom,
With dyed garments from Bozrah,
This One who is glorious in His apparel,
Traveling in the greatness of His strength?—

“I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”

2 Why is Your apparel red,
And Your garments like one who treads in the winepress?

3 “I have trodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes.
4 For the day of vengeance is in My heart,
And the year of My redeemed has come.”

This scripture is a prophecy that our King, Redeemer and Bridegroom Yahshua will enter Edom in vengeance, and come out of Bozrah after His robes are stained red with the blood of Israel's enemies. It also suggests that He will do so while leading a remnant of His beloved saints in triumphant victory. At that time, the now saved Jews in the company of their adopted brethren will finally shout in unison: “

Blessed is He Who Comes in the Name of the Lord!”
(See Psalm 118:26; Matthew 23:39).

The Prophetic Meaning Behind Christmas Comet C/2014 Q2

Click Image To Enlarge
Dubbed the Christmas Comet, Comet Lovejoy C/2014 Q2 was discovered by Astronomer Terry Lovejoy in August of 2014. Fortunately, it has brightened right now to be visible with binoculars, and will brighten enough to be visible to the naked eye (in good viewing conditions) in January. This will be true especially on the week before and after its perihelion date of January 30th, 2015.

Physically, this comet is hovering near the giant southern constellation which was once called Argo, but has been irritatingly divided up into smaller constellations in recent times to be named after various parts of a ship. Puppis is the poop deck of the ship Argo. Prophetically, Argo can be likened to the ship that Noah built to find safety during the Great Flood. It is also the ship that "carries" the constellation Canis Major or the "Big Dog".

During my book research, with God's help, I discovered that Canis Major is the constellation directly connected to Israel in physical location. I show the proof for this in my book "The Language of God in History" and in several of my blog articles. Since it was a revelation given to me by the Spirit of God that I did not find in any book on the subject of the constellations, it is only available in my books or articles. If you find it in any other books or articles not authored by me, then you can be assured that they borrowed from God's work through me without giving me credit.

What I also discovered is that the bright star Sirius in Canis Major, which is the brightest star in our night sky, corresponds exactly to Jerusalem, and it has an invisible companion star that corresponds to Bethlehem, the suburb of Jerusalem where Yahshua was born one quiet Autumn night - most likely around the time of the Feast of Sukkot in 3 BC!

I have created some wonderful illustrations and written hundreds of pages in my book describing how I found this out. To find out more about how Canis Major and Sirius are connected to the land of Israel and God's prophetic word, please consider buying my 800-page book "The Language of God in History", which is available from my web site bookstore as a paperback or digital PDF download here:

POEM Bookstore  - Language Series Book Ordering Section

If you scroll down a bit from where the browser window will open at the drop down menu for ordering the paperback books, book sets, and PDF books on Cd that are mailed, you'll see the drop down menu to purchase the inexpensive digital download versions on all the books in the Language of God Book Series, which should be on every Bible Scholar's book shelf.

Below is an article link to learn more about the Comet. This illustration that I made with Starry Night Pro shows where C/2014 Q2 will be in our night sky tonight. It's fairly low in the horizon, but if you have binoculars, clear skies, an unobstructed horizon, and it isn't too cold outside, it might be worth taking a look at it. :-) Enjoy!

Pillar Of Enoch Ministry Holiday Gift Appeal

Chanukah Nativity Menorah In Our Front Window
 Dear Beloved POEM Ministry Friends and Supporters,

As the Christmas Season arrives again with its message of love, hope and joy that can be found ONLY in Yahshua, please share this revision of my recently written article entitled: “DON’T LET ANYONE DETER YOU FROM CELEBRATING YAHSHUA’S INCARNATION!” It is directed at Hebrew Roots proponents that erroneously hate and revile all things Christian, and it is meant to gently but firmly convict, instruct and inspire change in those who have been conditioned to believe that Christmas and Easter are Pagan-inspired holidays.

If you love the Freedom and Liberty you have been given in Yahshua by His overwhelmingly wonderful Grace, and you don’t want others to be saddled by a yoke of oppression and legalism, please don’t be afraid to share this revised article. It’s especially important to share now, as the attacks on Christmas are escalating.

Link to BLOG Article:
DON’T LET ANYONE DETER YOU FROM
CELEBRATING YAHSHUA’S INCARNATION!

You can also download and print the PDF version of this article by right clicking on the following link and saving it to your PC or Ipad desktop:

ARTICLE PDF DOCUMENT FILE:

Also, please consider giving a gift to the Pillar of Enoch Ministry to help with our vital work in defending the Gospel of the Kingdom of God and the Gospel in the Stars while building a bridge of love and understanding between Messianics and Christians in these Last Days. 

I also want to ask for your help in funding this ministry’s plans to put out a whole new series of much shorter books based on the original Language of God Book Series. More than a dozen new books with more illustrations - with some in full color - are being planned for publication in 2015. These will be based on such topics as the legacy of the Prophet Enoch and His Pillars in Egypt, the Great Pyramid as a Sacred Altar and Pillar to God, and the Mazzaroth and Signs in the Heavens as a pictorial record of Yahshua’s war against the Devil and His saving ministry to mankind. 

These will be published as Kindle books first, and they will also be offered at the POEM web site as free digital downloads to people who promise to write and post reviews of them on Amazon. It’s an inexpensive but good way to advertise the new books, and it will help to raise their rating at Amazon at the same time.  Later in the year, if Yahshua continues to tarry, these digital books will then be published as quality paperbacks and offered for sale at Amazon and the POEM ministry web site.

To fund these projects and others that POEM has planned, you can do so here through this GoFundMe Link: http://www.gofundme.com/POEMfund2015

Or you can do so via our POEM Ministry gift giving links through PayPal, where you can opt to give a monthly gift of $5 of more.  Here is the link to the POEM page with the PayPal links:  http://pillar-of-enoch.com/contact.html#Gifts

WHAT SANCTIFICATION IS, AND WHY IT IS IMPORTANT

Click Image To Enlarge
~*~ 1 Thessalonians 4:3 ~*~

“For this is the will of God, your SANCTIFICATION...”

Do you know someone that believes in the “Always Saved Doctrine” without realizing what it actually means to be SAVED as opposed to SANCTIFIED? There is a HUGE difference! Simply put, the act of Salvation comes when a person believes that Yahshua is the Son of God and the Lamb of God who washes away their sins and the sins of the world by His shed blood on the Cross. In addition, those who are saved believe that Yahshua rose from the dead into everlasting life to show His victory over sin and death.

In contrast, after one's initial Salvation is achieved through belief in Yahshua, and after our baptism with the Holy Spirit, the process of Sanctification begins. With the Spirit of God as our Mentor, we become sanctified gradually over time. As we grow spiritually and learn to follow Yahshua's Commandments to love God and one another fully, we become fully Sanctified, which means we grow in righteousness and become fully equipped to serve God and others.

I once believed the “Always Saved Doctrine” too - until I became better educated in God's Word and read it for myself! Once I did, I could see the errors I was being taught with the Holy Spirit's help, and I recognized that Salvation is not really complete without Sanctification, in which we learn how to apply the Word of God and follow Yahshua. Growing in this way is a spiritual issue, however, and those of us who are truly born again and can hear the Spirit of God sometimes find ourselves at odds with those who don't know how to hear the Spirit, and thereby believe many incorrect doctrines.

For those who are confused by this issue, I have written several articles at my POEM Ministry Blog that could help you in understanding the fact that Salvation and Sanctification are not the same thing, but are both necessary for us to grow in our faith. In addition, these articles show how the “Always Saved Doctrine” is not totally true, but twisted. This is because - though a wayward believer in Yahshua may be eternally saved from the fires of Hell - they are NOT saved from being left behind and experiencing the full horror of the Great Tribulation.

Indeed, the Great Tribulation is where God can either succeed in refining wayward believers and purifying them for His service, or where He can allow them to have to experience the Last Judgment after the Millennial Kingdom is over. At that time, I believe that God will save most of them from the Lake of Fire. But they will have sadly missed the Rapture and the Millennial Kingdom.

Here is a list of the 5 most important articles I wrote on the subject, with the most recent article listed at the top.  Please contact me on Facebook or through my contact information on the POEM Ministry Web Site and let me know if these articles help you in your walk with Yahshua, or if you need more information. In the meantime, may our beloved Messiah Yahshua bless you richly and keep you safe this Holiday Season as we celebrate His Incarnation!

A MESSIANIC BIBLE STUDY TAKEN FROM ROMANS 8

~ Superconquerors ~ Romans 8:37-39 (CJB) ~
Click To Enlarge
Many seem to think that Romans 8:32, where it says: “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” is another promise that God will give us anything we ask for in prayer. But this is not the case at all. It is instead a promise that we will be given the power of the Holy Spirit to do as Yahshua did: teaching, comforting, healing, prophesying, praying, loving and caring for others, and that we will also be given the strength in Him to suffer as He did for the sake of righteousness and the Kingdom of God. This is made clear when the verse is read in context, where it also says that we will suffer distress and persecution just as Yahshua did, and we will be like lambs led to the slaughter, just as He was:

~*~ Romans 8:28-39 ~ Complete Jewish Bible ~*~  
“Furthermore, we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called in accordance with his purpose; 29 because those whom he knew in advance, he also determined in advance would be conformed to the pattern of his Son, so that he might be the firstborn among many brothers; 30 and those whom he thus determined in advance, he also called; and those whom he called, he also caused to be considered righteous; and those whom he caused to be considered righteous he also glorified!

What, then, are we to say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare even his own Son, but gave him up on behalf of us all — is it possible that, having given us his Son, he would not give us everything else too? So who will bring a charge against God’s chosen people? Certainly not God — he is the one who causes them to be considered righteous! Who punishes them? Certainly not the Messiah Yeshua, who died and — more than that — has been raised, is at the right hand of God and is actually pleading on our behalf! Who will separate us from the love of the Messiah? Trouble? Hardship? Persecution? Hunger? Poverty? Danger? War? As the Tanakh puts it,

“For your sake we are being put to death all day long,
we are considered sheep to be slaughtered.”

No, in all these things we are superconquerors, through the one who has loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor other heavenly rulers, neither what exists nor what is coming, neither powers above nor powers below, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God which comes to us through the Messiah Yeshua, our Lord.”
Yes, for Yahshua's sake, all true believers are as lambs led to the slaughter, and many of us are being killed and persecuted all over the world. It's time we all faced the fact that being a believer is a dangerous business that puts us all on the front lines of a spiritual battle that is always raging around us in the heavens and in the unseen spirit realms all over the Earth. This is why we need to stay near to Yahshua our beloved Messiah, seeking His strength and Holy Spirit power to bear all things and believe all things and do all the things that our Father God Yahweh calls us to do. For in this life - if we are truly following the Way of Yahshua - we will suffer for His sake at times, and some of us will even die for His sake.

Indeed, suffering will not stop being a part of our lives until we go to be with Yahshua at the time of our death or the Rapture, whichever will come first for us. So do not think you are being abandoned by God or being signaled out by God for punishment when things go badly for you in this life. As long as we live in this world and are seeking to do God's will everyday, the Devil will make sure that we are beset with problems and tribulations, even as we are being blessed by our Father God with many good things and the spiritual strength to bear it all and do everything for Yahshua's sake.

But take heart and gain courage in knowing that the signs are all around us that our beloved Savior and King Yahshua is coming very, very soon in the Rapture for those who love Him more than the world! Amen, and Hallelu-Yah!

WARNING: NOT ALL BELIEVERS WILL BE TAKEN IN THE RAPTURE!

Click on Image to Enlarge
Many appear to be unaware that salvation from everlasting death through Yahshua (i.e. Jesus) and qualifying for the Rapture as His Bride are two different things. This is because some of those who are saved are saved as though through the fire due to their spiritual waywardness. Furthermore, if these wayward souls do not learn to repent fully and turn away from sin before the Rapture, these believers in Yahshua will NOT be taken in the Rapture, but will be left behind to be spiritually refined in the fires of the Great Tribulation.

There are ample Scriptures to prove this, including the following one, which I think best summarizes how Yahshua is going to judge the Seven Churches of Revelation:
1 Corinthians 3:9-17 ~ "For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building.10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire. 16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 IF ANYONE DEFILES THE TEMPLE OF GOD, GOD WILL DESTROY HIM. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are."
So, as Temples of the Holy Spirit, believers are called to keep our temples or bodies clean by fleeing from sin and living holy lives. Otherwise we risk being physically destroyed by being removed from God's protection!

Now, looking at the larger picture being painted in the Book of Revelation by the Seven Churches, it is clear that these churches are filled with different types of believers, Of the seven, one is signaled out as so disgusting to Yahshua that He is going to spew them out of His mouth, meaning that they will not be protected from the Tribulation. This is the Laodicean Church, or the one whose description portrays it as a modern "Health and Wealth" or "Name It and Claim It" type of church.

But they are not the only church that Christ is not fully pleased with. In fact, only two groups of believers in these churches or congregations are not criticized for their failures and need for improvement. Furthermore, it is only these two that are signaled out as worthy of great rewards for their faithfulness. One is the Church of Smyrna, which is a church made up of the souls of those who are heavily persecuted for Yahshua's sake, and who become martyrs for the faith.

The second Church, and the only one offered the promise of escape from the Great Tribulation via the Rapture, is the Church of Philadelphia, or Church of Brotherly Love, which is also identified as the Bride of Christ described in Revelation 21. This can be seen by comparing Revelation 3:12 with Revelation 21:2-12. This church is filled with believers who grasp onto Yahshua with all their might, and - although they may have little strength - they refuse to let Him go, and they persevere in their faith through every trial. For this reason, these are the ONLY believers who are deemed fully worthy of the Rapture escape, and only they will be taken when the time comes:
Revelation 3:10-11 ~ "Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. 11 Behold,I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown." 
This Scripture is clear that it is only those in the Church of Philadelphia that are being offered the ability to escape the Hour of Trial, which is the Great Tribulation. Those in the other churches that are lacking - and sadly there are many - WILL BE LEFT BEHIND to be refined as through the fire, just as Paul taught in 1 Corinthians 3. Through the Seven Churches, we are all being warned that those taken in the Rapture are only going to be a select few, and we must all make every effort to be ready when Yahshua comes for us!

This means examining our hearts for their intent, asking Yahweh God for forgiveness where needed and forgiving others, and fully repenting by turning away from sin and weaning out the bad things that the Holy Spirit lets us know that God disapproves of. If believers remember to do this, then they will have no cause to worry that they will be left behind when the Rapture comes.

MARANATHA! GET READY!

YAHSHUA IS COMING VERY SOON!

MY THOUGHTS ON THE PLANET X HYPOTHESIS



Copyrighted Illustration From My Book:
 “The Language of God in History”
Click Image To Enlarge
By now, many people have seen various videos and articles about Planet X that have flooded YouTube and the internet over the past decade. But Personally, I feel that these videos and articles try hard to prove their hypothesis with very little conclusive data to back it. Besides that, many people overlook the fact that the Planet X theory has been around for a long time, and none of the hundreds of past theories that have been shared about it have proven to be true.

Though few seem to know it, several researchers like the heretical Zechariah Sitchin were already predicting that this hidden planet that may have adversely affected the Earth in the past would reach Earth's orbit again in the 1980's. But sadly, ever since the first articles and books about Planet X appeared, all of them have made unfulfilled predictions about when this supposed planet would return to cause mass havoc and cataclysmic changes to the Earth.

One theory about Planet X supposes that our Solar System is part of a dual Sun System with a rogue planet that enters our own every few thousand years or so.  Another theory is that a dwarf star is circling our Sun with its own set of planets attached to it. If that were true, however, I'm sure NASA or the ESA would have spotted it by now and shared tons of information about it.

Although I know that the Bible contains prophecies that are coming true today, and some of these prophecies like Isaiah 24 and Revelation's Trumpet Judgments deal with adverse changes to the Earth or celestial bombardments upon it, I don't buy the conspiracy theory that the governments of the world are hiding a planet or small sun to avoid mass panic. Think about it. There's thousands of amateur astronomers with powerful telescopes that would have blown the whistle on them with clear data proving the existence of Planet X or an alternate Solar System by now if it was anywhere in the neighborhood of our Sun.

I talked about the Planet Marduk or Phaeton in my books as a possible cause of Noah's Flood, so I'm not discounting the existence of a rogue planet in our Solar System at some point in time. But I also believe it was destroyed before parts of it made their ill-fated encounter with the Earth, and I explain all this in my 800-page book "The Language of God in History" with plenty of convincing data to prove it. This book is available to purchase at my Pillar of Enoch Ministry web site and at Amazon as a paperback and digital book.

Everyone who believes the Planet X hypothesis seems to be ignoring the fact that, if there really was a large planet or mini solar system that was so close that it could cast huge shadows on our clouds right now, it would have been quite visible in the sky at night all over the world. That is, until it may have gotten too close to our Sun to be seen. Since no one has reported seeing this planet or solar system, my theory is that it only exists in the imaginations of some.

Granted, the Book of Revelation does indicate that the Earth will be bombarded by large objects from outer space during the Great Tribulation as part of the Trumpet judgments. I also talked about that possibility in another book in my Language of God book series that covers End Time  Bible Prophecy. It is called "The Language of God in Prophecy", and it is also 800-pages long, and is available on Amazon and my web site.

Before closing, I wanted to share the fact that I had a vivid dream about the coming bombardments of the Earth that will end this wicked world system, and I wrote about it in the following article, which also appears in my book "The Language of God in Prophecy":

YAHWEH GOD’S WRATH SENT FROM HEAVEN TO EARTH!

Get Ready! Our Adonai Yahshua is coming for His Bride very soon!

The Blood Moon Tetrad and Shemitah Year Mark Worldwide Judgment!


Upon reading Rabbi Jonathan Cahn's book called "The Mystery of the Shemitah", I found that his research coincides well with my own. Like Cahn, I have found that the symbols and history of the United States conclusively show that it has more than a philosophical connection to the Kingdoms of Ancient Israel. In addition, just as I pointed to the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2014 and 2015 as highly significant, Cahn makes it clear that the 2015 Shemitah or Sabbatical Year of God's Judgment will affect the whole world, but especially the USA and Israel because of our godly heritage and connection to the Word of Yahweh that we have forsaken.

Since the Shemitah was to be a year where the cropland was to lay fallow and all debts were to be cancelled, the Shemitah Judgment will affect the economic sectors and banks of the world, as well as anything to do with farming, crops and the world food supply. As a sign of the Shemitah's world-wide affects, let's not forget that the weather has been horrid all over the world, and there have been terrible droughts, floods, storms, epidemics and fires of biblically epic proportions all over the world as well in the last few years.

That the Blood Moons of 2014 and 2015 are coinciding with the Shemitah year is not just amazing, but convicting that these Blood Moons are indeed a sign of Judgment upon the world for not living by God's Commandments. The first Three Blood Moons were or will be visible to all the nations bordering the Pacific Ocean, not just the USA. This includes South America, China, and Australia. The Solar Eclipse of 2015 will be visible from the United Kingdom and Northern Europe, and the final Blood Moon of the Tetrad will be visible from the nations bordering the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean, including Israel, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Russia.

This Blood Moon Tetrad therefore means that the whole world is under God's judgment. It's also a fair guess that - just as the entire world will see one or more of these Signs in the Heavens as we live through the Shemitah year of 2015, the entire world will also be experiencing active judgment. For a recap of the Blood Moon Tetrad including visibility maps and interpretations of the heavenly signs in relation to the Gospel in the Stars, go to my Blood Moon Tetrad article at my POEM Ministry Blog that is linked to below:

DON'T LET ANYONE DETER YOU FROM CELEBRATING YAHSHUA'S INCARNATION!

Image Taken From My Article:
Yahshua's First Advent Ties to Chanukah and Christmas
October had arrived again, and even before the wickedness of Halloween had been unleashed on the world, the attacks on Christmas had already begun on Facebook and elsewhere. Not only that, but I knew that the attacks would soon escalate in intensity - not only from non-believers, but from misguided believers as well. But, contrary to what many Messianic Jews and legalistic Christians are teaching these days, my research has proven that many of the facts being circulated about the origins of Christmas are incorrect or incomplete. Furthermore, the facts that are deliberately being obscured or hidden prove that all the virulent hatred of the celebration of December 25th among large segments of humanity today is NOT OF GOD, but is of the Devil.

The image above was taken from one of my previous articles on this subject that is linked to at the end of this article, and - like this article - that article shows that Christians do not need to be ashamed of the traditional Christian Christmas holiday, but that it should continue to be celebrated. Unfortunately, however, this is becoming increasingly more difficult because of the sad truth that many deluded believers and apostates are joining the ranks of demon possessed, unsaved people who make it a calling to attack the non-Jewish Body of Christ using FALSIFIED or doctored and false historical information.

This altered or incomplete information can be found in many popular encyclopedias and text books that were created in the last fifty years by Liberal, Secular Scholars that hate Christ and anything to do with Him. Many of them are undoubtedly also Occultists that are unsaved and demonically controlled. These people generally despise Christians and Jews, and have been taught to believe that Pantheism, Paganism and Shamanism came before Monotheism or the belief in one Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent Creator God, which is absolutely not true. As a result, many of these scholars have adjusted the facts to be purposefully deceptive and misleading - leaving out key information that points to the Monotheistic truths I'm sharing here.

I have done extensive research on this subject, and - among many other facts supporting Christian holy days as reinterpretations of traditional Jewish Feasts - have discovered that, since Yahshua or Jesus our Messiah was most likely born in September of 3 BC based on the Signs in the Heavens at that time, He was most likely conceived at Chanukah in 4 BC. Furthermore, conception is when life truly begins! So this is when Yahshua truly came to be with us. Also interesting to note is the fact that Yahshua is the true Light of the World, and Chanukah is called the Festival of Lights, and it is associated with Divine llumination.

Not only that, but Chanukah begins on Kislev 25, the ninth Jewish month that always falls in late November through late December every year. As such, the month of Kislev is perfectly analogous to the 30 days between American Thanksgiving Day in late November, which is a Christian version of Sukkot or the Feast of Tabernacles (when Yahshua was born), and Christmas Day on December 25th. It is therefore no coincidence that December 25th falls on the same numeric day and at the same time of year as the first day of Chanukah beginning on Kislev 25, when Yahshua was conceived.

In addition, there is a good indication - based on clues in the biblical narrative and in the Signs in the Heavens - that the Wise Men found Yahshua as a toddler in Bethlehem during Chanukah in 2 BC, when Yahshua was about 15 months old. The December 25th date for celebrating Yahshua's entire birth and infancy narrative therefore makes perfect sense.

Yahshua was truly incarnated as a man at Chanukah, although He was born around Yom Teruah or Sukkot. Furthermore, He was recognized as the true King of Israel at Chanukah by the Wise Men. If you listen to the words of Yahshua, He said that He came to fulfill the Law, not to abolish it. The Jewish Feast days each have something to teach us about the redemptive work of Yahshua. But I have discovered that - contrary to Hebrew Roots teachings - the Main Christian Feasts actually acknowledge this fact.

Easter Week, which falls between Palm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday, is connected to Passover Week because Easter Sunday almost always falls on the Sunday or first day of the week that the Firstfruits offering would have been made in the Jerusalem Temple during Passover Week. Not surprisingly, this was the very Sunday when Yahshua was presented to His Father in Heaven as the Firstfruits of the Resurrection into Everlasting Life. This exactly mimicked the way the firstfruits of the Barley harvest were presented before God in the Holy Place within the Temple to Yahweh. Yahshua was taken up secretly to be presented before His Father in Heaven just as the Barley sheaf was being waved in the Temple - on the day after the Sabbath, which is the Sunday on which Pesach, which means Passover, falls. Most of Europe calls Easter "Pesach" or "Pascha" because it celebrates the day of the Firstfruits Offering during Passover Week, and Yahshua rose from the dead on that day to become the Firstfruits of the Resurrection.

Christmas is also tied to its Jewish counterparts Chanukah or the Feast of Dedication and Sukkot or the Feast of Tabernacles in two ways. The first connection comes from the fact that the American Thanksgiving Day celebration has long been recognized as a Christian version of the Jewish Feast of Sukkot or Tabernacles, which is an Autumn Harvest Festival dedicated to thanking God for His goodness in the harvest. Autumn corresponds to the time when Yahshua would have most likely been born in Bethlehem - around the time of Sukkot. The second connection comes from the fact that Chanukah corresponds to the time when Yahshua was conceived in Israel nine months before His birth, during winter in Israel - just as Christmas is celebrated in the West.

Furthermore, the Jews have added two Feast Days to their Sacred Calendar that - although the Jews appear to be completely unaware of this - are prophetically tied directly to the Gentile believers in Yahshua as the Second House of Israel. These Feasts are Purim and Chanukah, and they are NOT God-ordained. But no one is pointing their fingers at these Feast Days and calling them evil because they clearly are celebrating great moments of Israelite deliverance from government oppression and evil in high places. Christmas is the same kind of Holy Day. It celebrates the great promise of deliverance from evil, sin and death that came with the birth of Yahshua, the Light of the World, in Bethlehem of Judea in 3 BC.

So my plea to all of you that have come to hate Christmas and revile those who keep it, I would like to ask you to study my articles, and stop bashing the Christian celebration of Christ's Incarnation as a man in December! Because my articles repeatedly give research information that proves that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Christmas as a combined celebration of the full narrative of the chronological events surrounding Christ's Birth.

Image Taken From My Article:
A FASCINATING CONNECTION BETWEEN CHANUKAH AND PASSOVER
As a strengthening argument to heed my plea, think about this: if you count from the middle of the week of Chanukah in 4 BC to September of 3 BC, Yahshua's 280th day in His mother's womb - when labor was most likely to have begun at the perfect end of human gestation - would have been on Yom Kippur or the Day of Atonement, NOT on Yom Teruah or Sukkot. The image above was taken from one of my articles that is linked to at the end of this article, and it shows the connection between Chanukah and Passover through the events of Yahshua's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, and His Crucifixion and Resurrection.

Before I continue, I want appeal to all those who despise Christmas and hate those who keep it by being so harsh and unforgiving towards them. Before you go on your next crusade to bash Christmas and Christian practices, please remember that Yahshua was incarnated as a human being at Chanukah, when He was conceived - and this is likely being recalled by the date of December 25th and its direct connection to Kislev 25 as the date most analogous to the Jewish Lunar Calendar on a Gentile Solar Calendar. In addition, Scripture reveals that Yahshua was a toddler when the Magi came to visit Him, and the presence of Jupiter or the Star of Bethlehem above the town of Bethlehem was most prominent between June and December of 2 BC, which was nearly a year, to over a year after Yahshua was born in September of 3 BC. For more information about this, please read my article entitled: "Yahshua's First Advent Ties to Chanukah and Christmas" by clicking on the title link in this paragraph, or using the link to it at the end of this article.

Now, since Christmas is connected to a godly Feast day associated with Christ for good reason, it will not earn you any brownie points with God to try and shame those who keep it. Please remember that adhering to the letter of the Law without embracing the mercy, sacrifice and love of God, which are part of His Grace, is a direct insult to Yahshua and His Spirit. After all, Grace or unmerited favor was given through the perfect Torah-true life that Yahshua lived, and the Blood Sacrifice of Yahshua Ha Mashiach on the Cross for our sins! Therefore, Yahshua - as the WORD OF GOD - IS the Torah! So please stop hating your brethren in Christ, and learn to truly follow HIM in love.

For the Torah-observant, I also have to ask the question: "Why are you choosing to believe that Rome and the Papacy had anything to do with choosing December 25th as the date when Yahshua’s incarnation as a man was celebrated? How do you know that it was not a practice of the Early Church, as I strongly suspect - because they realized that conception is when life begins, not birth? Why are you utilizing the erroneous research of others without consulting the Holy Spirit for wisdom concerning these matters?"

Finally, I have some tidbits to share with those who object to keeping Christmas because they think it was connected to Saturnalia, or the worship of the false god Saturn, who was seen as represented by the planet or wandering star called Saturn. First of all, the Roman Feast of Saturnalia did NOT coincide with December 25th at all. In fact, it was celebrated between December 17th and 23rd on the Julian Calendar, which means it ended two days before Christmas. Secondly, although wicked people associated the planet Saturn with Sorcery and Black Magic, it was created by God to have a godly purpose, as the following illustration hints at:
Saturn's  Rings and Hexagon Storm  = Avenger of Blood Yahshua's Crown 
Click Image To Enlarge
In ancient times, Saturn was associated with the sky and the sky god or gods connected to it. To the Jews, however, it had another meaning. This is because they saw Saturn as the seventh wandering star (i.e. planet), and as such, they connected it to the Sabbath or seventh day of the week. Saturn was therefore associated with God's rest by the Jews, as well as His blessings, goodness and mercy toward mankind. In fact, inside or outside of Israel, the wandering star Saturn did not have any association with black magic until medieval times, when it started to be used as a symbol connected to magic, and the other dark arts of the occult.

However, Saturn does have another ancient and mysterious role in its association with one of the sons of Jacob or Israel via Joseph's dream vision. In that dream, Joseph saw his mother and father as the Sun and Moon, and his 11 brothers as 11 wandering stars (i.e. planets or other large celestial bodies) circling the Sun. (See Genesis 37:1-11). Due to this, Joseph's dream serves as a strong clue that each planet or large celestial body in our Solar System has an allegorical connection to the Tribes of Israel, just as the Twelve Zodiac Signs, Sun Signs, or Signs of the Mazzaroth do. I'll share more on this a bit later - in reference to Judah, and his descendant Yahshua.

Saturn also may have a connection to the idea of God's all-seeing eye. This is because, when seen from a certain angle, Saturn bears an uncanny resemblance to a human eye, and Yahshua had two. I found this out first hand during one of my sky-watching forays, in the spring of 2002. At that time, Saturn was prominently situated in a planetary line-up spanning the signs of Taurus and Gemini, Furthermore, Saturn was at such an angle that its rings could clearly be seen without the aid of anything more powerful than a standard pair of binoculars. Furthermore, the angle made Saturn's rings look like a huge oval human eye shape with a white pupil consisting of the planet Saturn. When I saw this, I wondered if this symbolism was not lost on the ancients, who may have seen Saturn as the eye of God.

Fascinatingly, the planet Saturn has a raging hexagonal-shaped storm at its southern pole, and the hexagon has six sides that fit perfectly around the six-pointed star shape known as the Seal of Solomon or Star of David. This star symbol, which consisted of two intersecting triangles pointing up and down, was likely originally an ancient celestial symbol for the concept of Heaven and Earth being entwined together as God interacts with humanity. It also connects Saturn to Yahshua by the fact that humanity's most intimate interactions with God came through Yahshua, Who was also known prophetically as the Son of David, and the six-pointed star that can be associated with a hexagon is known as the Star of David. As our Messiah or Savior and Giver of Divine Wisdom through His Holy Spirit, Yahshua is the aspect of God that shares our human likeness, and even today, He still sees the world through human eyes because He was resurrected into a human form.

Christ as the Alpha and Omega, or Aleph and Bet
In my studies of Saturn, it is interesting to note that the early Church associated halos, which are reminiscent of the rings of Saturn, with the holy family, the apostles, and the saints. For example, in the 4th century catacombs of Commodilla in Rome, a wall fresco of Yahshua's face and torso is surrounded by a halo, as shown in the adjacent photo taken from Wikimedia Commons. That it is a depiction of Yahshua is obvious due to the Greek letters Alpha and Omega on either side of the figure. These letters are attributed to Christ in the Bible due to His role in Creation, which makes Him the Beginning and the End of all things, and the First and the Last in regard to all things. Due to its importance as an attribute of Yahshua as our Creator, the Book of Revelation refers to Yahshua as the Alpha and Omega, or the Aleph and the Tav three times, in Revelation 1:10-11, Revelation 21:5-6 and Revelation 22:12-14.

Now, looking at the fact that Saturn is a giant ringed planet crowned with a giant hexagonal-shaped hurricane-like storm at its southern pole, I feel that it has a definite allegorical connection to the concept of an angry, vengeful king crowned with a circle of light. In this regard, it serves as a perfect allegory of Yahshua, Who is our spiritual and literal Avenger of Blood. In ancient Israel, the Kinsmen Redeemer and Avenger of Blood was usually the senior-most male family member and head of a tribe or clan that was called on to serve as the family's judge and counselor, as well as the person who was called on to avenge crimes against his extended Israelite family. Likewise, as the head of all the Tribes of Israel, Yahshua is the Kings of kings, and the Righteous Judge of Humanity that is coming to avenge the blood of all His spiritual family members that have been martyred or wronged in this wicked world.

Fascinatingly, Yahshua created Saturn using His Father's design. So I am sure it was God the Father's plan for Saturn to have allegorical connections to a halo or crown and a human eye. In that regard, it may serve as a symbol for Judah, who was considered to be the king among his brothers, and who was seen as a wandering star in Joseph's Dream (See Genesis 37:1-11Genesis 49:8-10; 1 Chronicles 5:2. However, since Satan is the god of this wicked world system, it is easy to see why occult practitioners have re-appropriated the planet Saturn, the hexagon, and the hexagonal star for their own wicked uses. Sadly, their ploy of turning good to evil has worked marvelously today, and many people have been duped by their subterfuge.


Other scholars try to connect Christmas to the Ancient Roman celebration of Sol Invictus, or worship of the “Invincible Sun”, which was the day that the Romans worshiped the birth of the Sun God Apollo. However, there is good reason to believe that, since Sol Invictus was not made an official holiday in Rome until the 5th Century, that it was celebrated on December 25th in direct affront to the Christian worship of Yahshua’s birth on that day, which had likely started long before the Pagans in Rome re-appropriated and tried to eclipse the Christian holiday.

An interesting thing to note here is that Sol Invictus was supposedly associated with the Winter Solstice, or shortest day of the year also, and - as previously stated - the Winter Solstice did not fall on December 25th in Ancient Roman times. So there seems to be a discrepancy in the historical records as to when Sol Invictus was actually celebrated, as opposed to when it should have been celebrated. This supports my view that the Romans chose to celebrate Sol Invictus on December 25th in opposition to the Christian celebration of Yahshua’s birth on that day, rather than on the actual Winter Solstice, which fell around December 22nd or 23rd in Ancient Rome.

In an uncanny way, the fact that Easter and the Firstfruits offering day are connected to Sunday, which the Pagans dedicated to their Sun god, and the fact that Christmas may have been connected to the Pagan worship of the birth of the Sun God has a way of sanctifying both days for the worship of Yahshua as well. Now, before getting upset by my preceding statement and proclaiming that I am a heretic due to it, please consider the fact that there is sound biblical proof that Yahshua, Who is fully God, is directly connected with the symbolism of our Sun. The proof is in Malachi 4:2, where Yahshua is prophetically called the Sun of Righteousness! This means that our Sun can allegorically represent our Risen Messiah, just as the planet Jupiter represents Him in His incarnation as a mortal man, and the planet Saturn may signify Him in his role as the Crowned King of kings. So, by this analogy, who would you say is the REAL Sun God? I say it is God the Father and His Son Yahshua, that’s Who!

Beit Alfa Synagogue Mosaic Floor Depicting King David in place of
Apollo in the center of a Zodiac Wheel depicting the 12 Tribes of Israel
The Jews of Yahshua’s Day seemed to fully acknowledge this fact, actually depicting King David - who led Israel by God’s command - in the same fashion as the Roman Sun God Apollo. They did so by placing an image of David in a chariot being pulled by four horses in the center of a Zodiacal Wheel of all Twelve Zodiac Signs, which the Jews allegorically connected to the Twelve Tribes of Israel. This can be seen in the floor of Beit Alfa, an Ancient Jewish Synagogue that was found in Northern Israel, as shown above. There are several other similar ancient depictions that have been found in Israel, so this was not an isolated anomaly.

Although some scholars have attributed these synagogue mosaics to the Samaritans, whose religion was considered to be a mixture of Jewish and Pagan ideas, Yahshua never condemned the Samaritan woman, who had been married five times, or her supposedly “heretical” religious beliefs, but actually acknowledged the Jewish and Samaritan belief in a coming Messiah as fulfilled with His actual bodily presence before her, and His prophetic ability (See all of the Gospel of John, Chapter 4). In fact, it was her testimony in her city about Yahshua that made her fellow Samaritans come out to meet Him at Jacob’s Well.

Subsequently, Yahshua decided to stay in Samaria for two days, and speak to the Samaritans about Who He is, and why He had come. During His stay, Yahshua converted many Samaritans to belief in Him, and they were saved! So, unlike the majority of Jews that did not believe in Him, many Samaritans had no trouble seeing the greatness of the teachings of this godly man before them, and His divine purpose and prophetic calling. They could also see His resemblance to King David as a man of God, and a Sun of Righteousness, for He was shedding spiritual light like David had in his Psalms, and in the example that David has tried to set for his people when he was King of Israel. Below, I’ve shared Malachi 4:1 through 3 to show its direct connection to Christ as our Sun of Righteousness, and our only true Light of the World:


~*~ Malachi 4:1-3 ~ *~

~*~ A PROPHECY FOR OUR TIME! ~*~
“For behold, the day is coming,
Burning like an oven,
And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble.
And the day which is coming shall burn them up,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“That will leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But to you who fear My name
The Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
3 You shall trample the wicked,
For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet
On the day that I do this,”
Says the Lord of hosts.”

AMEN and Hallelu-Yah!

In another article I wrote defending a believer's right to keep Christmas as the Gentile version of Chanukah and Sukkot combined, I address both of the false claims made about several verses in  Jeremiah Chapter 10 and Isaiah Chapter 44, which are primarily used to bash the use of Christmas Trees and Nativity Sets as evil and idolatrous Pagan customs. Sadly, however, these verses have been grossly misinterpreted and misapplied, and say nothing of the sort. The Title and Link to that illuminating article appears next. Please share this article with those who try to use those Scriptures to ruin your enjoyment of Christmas!
