God Will Punish America
- Part 1
Much is heard from the Kingdom Ministers, but
nothing from the Judeo-Christian ones, about the simple little idea, "God
Will Punish America" (Israel). Yet we suppose it is one of the least understood
maxims of the Scripture, among Christan people. We have had the opportunity
to talk to Judeo-Christian people about God's punishment upon individuals,
on people, or the nation. However, apparently, most people refuse to belive
it; they just do not want to accept the idea that God actually and deliberately
punishes a people or a nation.
We wish to show you a few things out of the Scripture that we
think should convince, at least some of the skeptics, that God does actually
punish His people Israel; for instance, from the prophet Amos:
"Hear this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O children
of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of
Egypt, saying. You only have I known of all the families of the earth:
therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities." (Amos 3:1-2)
There are two great truths in that one verse:
1). "You only have I known of all the families of the eart," (God
has a special relationship with His people Israel that is different than
His relationship with all the rest of the people and races that are on
the earth); and therefore
2). Because of that special relationship, God says "I will punish
you for all your iniquities." God said, I will punish you because of the
relationship that I have with you that is different from other people and
races.
He goes on: "Can two walk together, except they be agreed?" (Amos
3:3)
It's amazing how much preaching there is today on this idea that
we can walk with God, but we don't necessarily have to agree with Him (Just
listen to any Judeo-Christian minister as he delivers his sermon from the
pulpit). In other words, we can put aside His Word and not teach it, we
can put aside His Laws, Statutes, and Judgments, and not obey it, and actually
cast aspersions on it; and yet still walk with God. But He says, "can two
walk together unless they be agreed?"
Then He gives some little proverbs, we suppose you would call
them:
"Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? Will a
young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? Can a bird fall
in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him?" (Amos 3:4-5)
In other words, where there is no food in the trap.
"...shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing
at all? Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid?
Shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it?" (Amos 3:5-6)
He is asking some questions which actually have answers that almost
any rational person should be able to answer. For instance, this idea of
the lion. Will a lion roar in the forest when he has no prey? We don't
have many lions in this country so some people don't know about them. The
lion is very quiet, never makes any noise until after he kills his prey;
then he roars in order to keep away the other lions, or other animals who
want to come and get it.
So God is just asking some of these things to give an idea that
there is a natural order of events; certain things happen when other things
happen. There are causes and effect. He's just using some of the things
of nature to show that there is a certain cause and it has a certain effect.
If there is a certain action, then a certain other thing follows, even
to the idea that shall a trumpet be blown in the city, the people shall
be afraid. If someone sets off the alarm which the people understand as
meaning enemy attack or war, or danger, there is an immediate fear. Peosple
do not go about and say, what do you think about this? Do you think it
is too loud? Or too soft? No! That isn't what they ask; there is an immediate
reaction when a certain thing takes place. God even says:
"Shall there be evil in a city,and the Lord hath not done it?"
Those who have a Fenton Bible, and it is rather interesting, the
translation that he has of some of these verses in Amos. In fact, he says:
"Can a trumpet be blown in a town and the people not collect?"
In other words, the people would come and gather and decide what
to do.
"If there is misfortune to a town, has not the Ever-Living produced
it?"
So here is another translation with the same idea; if there is
evil in a city,has not the Lord done it. Remember that as we go through
this study! Especially those who are fearful of what the communists or
Jews are doing, what the black revolutionaries are doing, and all the propagandists
are doing around America. Remember, God says if there is evil in the city,
He has done it. Or, at least He knows about it. Let's not have the idea
that God doesn't know about it. Then in verse seven of the KJV He adds:
"Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret
unto his servants the prophets."
Ferrar Fenton says of this:
"However, the Mighty Lord will not produce an event without disclosing
His intentions to His servants the prophets."
You see, He asks these rather innocuous questions first to show
you that there is a natural order of events; the lion is quiet until he
gets his prey, then he roars. They all do that; it is a natural thing for
them to do. Birds are not caught in a snare unless there is bait in it.
Then He says, but the Lord will not do anythign, not even the natural course
of events, or produce an event without disclosing His intentins to His
servants the prophets. We read this verse quite often because we think
it shoud be a great comfort to people to know that God Almighty may punish
Israel, but He is not going to do any of that punishment unless He discloses
it to His servants, the prophets. He is going to tell Israel about it in
advance, through His prophets; that is what we read in both of these translations.
For those of you who doubt this idea, that if there is evil in
the city the Lord has done it, turn to Isaiah 45. We know that there is
a tremendous amount of information put out on radio, television and a tremendous
amoutn of literature available and that there are literally millions of
people who are absolutely and totally convinced that ll of the evil in
the nation is caused by the communits, the criminals, the Jews or by the
propagandists, the liberals, ro somebody. But please read Isaiah 45 starting
in verse 5:
"I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside
me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. That they may know from
the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me.
I am the Lord, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness:
I make peace, and crate evil: I the Lord do all these things." (Isaiah
45:5-7)

Now it is one of the hardest truths of the Bible to get across
to Christian people (especially those who listen only to the lying, deceiving,
Judeo-Christian clergy); that God creates the evil in the city. This is
the idea that we are talking about; God punishes Israel. As we go along
you will see that there is a reason for all of these things happening;
a logical reason.God says in Amos that if there is evil in the city, He
knows about it. Ferrar Fenton says that He causes it. In Isaiah 45 we read
the very simple words that He creates evil: "I the Lord do all these things."
Some people would think that this is literally blasphemy for a
preacher to stand up before a congregaton and say: Yes brother,t he Lord
creates evil! Doesn't that sound terrible? This God of good, this God of
love creates evil! But the fact of the matter is that God is not only a
God of Love but He is a God of:
God is a God of wrath (Exodus 22:24; Numbers 11:33; Deuteronomy
9:7-8; Romans 1:18; Ephesians 5:6; Hebrews 3:11; Revelation 6:16; 14:19;
19:15)
God is a God of Vengeance (Isaiah 35:4; Ezekiel 25:14; Hebrews
10:30)
God is a Jealous God (Exodus 20:5; 34:14; Deuteronomy 4:24; 5:9;
6:15; 1 Corinthians 10:22; 2 Corinthians 11:2)
God is an Angry God (Deuteronomy 9:13-20; 1 Kings 11:9; 2 Kings
17:18; Psalm 79:5; 80:4)
In fact, all the Judeo-Christian clergy preach today, that God
is a God of love. But if God Almighty said to Israel, you are a special
people, you are different from all the other people, therefore I will punish
you for your iniquities, how is He going to punish us unless He does somethign
that we think is evil? How many of you have ever given your children a
whipping when they were small? We are sure that most of you older people
have, atsome time or another, or you have corrected them, or you have taken
away some privilege. If you had turned around and asked that child what
it was that you had done to them, they would have told you, you had done
something boad, wouldn't they? They would have said: That was an evil thing
you did to me when you gave me alicking. Now, if Israel receives chastisement
and punishment, of course you could put the word "evil" upon it, because
to us it is evil. God says He does these things.
Now we want to list, just before we go on in the Scripture, the
four things that have apparently been told to us in these few verses in
Amos, and also this part we read in Isaiah:
1). God will punish Israel for all her iniquities. (That was said
in rather plain language)
2). Things happen for a cause or for a reason. (We think that
is the reason why God put those other questions in here, there is a logical
reason for things happening)
3). God controls both good and evil.
4). He will not do any of these things to Israel unless He discloses
it to His servants, the prophets.
If we believe that God is going to punish Israel, then we must
also believe that God is going to tell us in His Word how He is going to
punish us. We think perhaps if we understand that, we can understand a
lot of these things that are happening in America and the other Anglo-Saxon,
Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, Nordic, Slavic lands.
Some of the people we talk to, and some of the people who write
letters, once in awhile give us some argument about some of these writings.
In fact, we think there are two pieces of literature that we have had more
argument from people on than anything else we have ever written. The first,
the tract titled "Fighting Communism or Denying God?" about the John birch
Society; and the other is the tract that pastor Sheldon Emry wrote titled,
"The American Captivity," in which he showed how the American people are
being misled and deceived by what are called anti-communists into spending
their money, and wasting all their time and effort.
The major argument they give is: Well, we've got to stop the communists
so that we can preach the Word and save people. We've got to stop the communists
and one-worlders and the New World Order crowd so that Christianity can
continue and preachers can stay on radio and television. We've got to stop
the communists because otherwise theypre going to take all the preachers
off the radio and television. In other words, their whole argument is geared
to this one thing; Communism is evil, therefore we must stop it in order
that good will prevail. But never NEVER do they mention the movers and
shakers of Communism and that is the Jew; they never speak this word even
in secret for their cowardance.
We will attempt to show you that this is absolutely erroneous
preaching and teaching and learning; yet, a great number of people have
fallen for this idea that we have to stop this evil so that good will prevail,
otherwise good has no chance. The good anti-communsit organizations have
been built on the idea that if we can stop the evil, then good will prevail.
Yet we have read that God creates evil.
Now at the same time, we suppose we are all rather startled by
the seemign sstupidity of our national civil leaders; by the almost total
blinidness of the Judeo-Christian preachers, and even tot he extent that
we read in the papwers that the revolutionists and the communists say;
We are going to burn down America. In the same paper the government says;
Well, what we have to do is spend billions of dollars to clean up our air.
The revolutionists say they will invade the churches, and in fact have
already invaded some churches in some of the cities, and burned them down,
or taken them over. They say: ?We have to destroy America, we have to destroy
Christianity." And with a gleeful heart they cry out: "America is Babylon
and will be destroyed!!!!!" What do the lying, deceiving, perverted, degenerate,
judized Judeo-Christian preacher, ministers, evangelists, and etc., say:
"Come to Christ, give your life to Christ and He will live in your heart,
and love everybody, and so on." But you never hear them utter the word
Jew which is behind all thise evil, and of course the Lord allows them
to do wickedly because He is using them to chastize His people.
We know this is a lie for the Scriptures say that some are born
evil or wicked from birth:
"The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon
as they be born, speaking lies. Their poison is like the poison of a serpent:
they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; Which will not hearken
to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely." (Psalm 58:3-5)
In other words, the answer by the politicians, and the answer
by the ministers to the plain stated threat that the enemy intends to destroy
this nation, is completely unrelated. There is no relation to what the
government does in relation to what the enemy says they are going to do.
There is no relation to the preaching that the preachers give us in relation
to what the enemies of the preachign of the Gospel say. It is almost as
if they are mad, or insane; and so they are with the desire for more weath
and power, ever more wealth and power; they are never satisfied. They cannot
and will not understand that the enemy has said: I am going to kill you
and eliminate you. The enemy has said they are going to kill America, and
the leaders say; Pollutin is a terrible problem; we'll clean up our air,
our water and rivers. They do not answer the enemy. There is no effort
to do anythign about the enemy, and the Judeo-Christian perachers turn
around and preach about something that has no meaning whatsoever in relation
to this threat.

Now look at another prophet, Micah. Micah was a prophet to the
northern House of Israel, the so-called Ten-Tribed Israel, just prior to,
and during the time they went into captivity in Assyria. Consider this
third chapter of Micah, and try and NOT realize that this is lierally a
description of the United States of America. You also think of the things
we have read, as we go through this; remember that Micah was a prophet
of God! Now Amos said God di not do anything except He reveal theevents
to His servants, the prophets:
"And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes
of the house of Israel." (Micah 3:1)
Who in the world does God Almighty speak to first? Now remember,
Israel was in disobedience and that is the reason they went into the Assyrian
captivity, you all know that. So who does God speak to through His prophet?
You Heads of Jacob, and You Princes of The House of Israel.
"Is it not for you to know judgment?" (Micah 3:1)
In other words, you are the ones who are supposed to know judgment,
or knowto do the right thing. Here is the kind of people they are: "Who
hate the good, and love the evil: who pluck off their skin from off them,
and their flesh fromoff their bones." (Micah 3:2)
Here is what they do to God's People:
"Who also eat the flesh of My People, and flay their skin from
off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the
pot, and as flesh within the caldron." (Micah 3:3)
They destroy My People Israel; They steal their property and their
wealth; they force them to do ungodly things; Thyey send their children
to the government schools to be brainwashed into all other kinds of ideologies.
This is being done by the government. In other words, the leaders and rulers
in Israel are destroying the Israel people, and God says, this is what
happened at that time.
"Then shall they cry unto the Lord, but he will not hear them."
(Micah 3:4)
Isn't that something; He will nothear them! Now we thought this
was a God of live, that if anybody cried unto the Alord, why, He heard
them right away. Brother and sister, that isn't what the Bible says. Remember,
Israel was literally in total disobedience at the time of the Assyrian
captivity. The rulers were destroying the people, and God said, if the
people cry unto me, I won't even hear them. I will not hear the people
when they cry about the terrible things being done to them by their rulers.
Can there be any doubt, that the present administration (July
22, 2000) is the most evil, degenerate, perverted, murderous, Christ hating,
Christian hating, evil administration that has ever been in America since
its inception.
"...he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they
have behaved themselves ill in their doings." (Micah 3:4)
In a rational conversation among a group of Christian people,
if there are any of them (and we are taling bout Christian people who love
the Lord and are actualy followers of Him), in fany of them would dare
stand up and argue that America is in obedience to the Lord God Almighty.
You know, when you consider the things that are taking place in this land,
that we are allowing to take place, then we are in more dire stratits and
in more dangerous disobedience to the God of Israel than our people were
back then, when God sent them into Assyria.
We have read some of the newspaper accounts of some of this pornographic
movies that apparently are going to be shown in the theatres, and they
tell us that within another few years they will be shown on television.
We read this a few years ago and so it has come to pass. Every thing is
shown in the movies, oral sex and penetration and etc. The only thing that
is lacking so far on television is the actual views of penetration of man
into a woman and the actual acts of oral sex; but it apparently is not
long in coming.
But we have not heard of a single delegation of the Judeo-Christian
ministers going to talk to any man in civil aughority, let alone the Congress
of the United States or the various states; and tell them that these things
are evil and that God Almighty orders them to destroy these films, and
burn down those theatres and television studios if they have to, to stop
this evil. Or to execute the murdering dogs called abortion doctors and
nurses and burn these damnable buildings to the ground. Where are the Judeo-Christian
clergy? They are crying out for the queers rights, the womans right to
choose to murder her own baby in her body. BUT YOU NEVER HEAR A PEEP OUT
OF THESE LYING, COWARDLY, JUDIZED, DOGS; AS THEIR MASTERS JUST MIGHT CUT
OFF THE MONEY TREE.
The only Christian minister that we have read about in the newspapers
in the last few years who saw someong in civil authority was a Methodist
minsiters who went to see a judge in protest of a high bond for some criminal.
(Isn't that something, instead of preaching against the evil and doing
the duty of a watchman, the sorry dog was worred about some criminal) That's
right! The ONLY time a Judeo-Christian minister went down to see civil
authority was to protest that they are holding some criminal in jail that
they should let out. You think America is not in disobendience to God Almighty?
You think tht God is going to hear the prayers of a people who allow this
sort of activity to go on? Well, let's read on:
"Thus saith theLord concerning the prophets that make my people
err..." (Micah 3:5)
In other words, the preachers make my people err, or cause them
to err:
"...that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth
not into thier mouths, they ven prepare war against him." (Micah 3:5)
Have you ever thought of the idea that there are actually preachers
in the pulpits, who are preparing war against Israel? And against God Almighty?
Preachers! Yes Judeo-Christian Preaches.
There was a little articl which was titled "They Have Gone About
As Far As They Can Go." It is a reprint of an article written by a United
Methodist minister who attended a three-week seminar in Kansas City for
United Methodist (U.M.) Ministers. He tells what they did for three weeks;
ministers, not lay people, ministers. They spent about one-third of the
time watching pornographic movies, so that the preachers would learn what
the American people are seeing. That was the idea behind it. All of the
instructors at the school, according to this Methodist minister, who attended
this, participated. He said:
"The next day we had an ecounter with the black community. We
were told in the most colorful language (now you can imagine what he means
when he says ‘colorful language') how irrelevant and useless the church
is. We heard bitter condemnation of America's social, economic, and political
systems. We were told they are repressive, worthless, and destructive,
and that they must be destroyed by violent revolution if necessary."
God Will Punish America - Part

He goes on and tells us that all of these revolutinary teachers
at the seminar were the teachers at the theological seminary that they
attended. The men who tell them they have to burn donw and destory America,
are the men at the United Methodist Theological Seminary who are teachign
the new Judeo-Christian United Methodist Ministers. Then they had prostitutes
come in and tell them their story.One Sunday morning they didn't go to
church, instead they went out and visited the bars in Kansas City, to see
how the rest of the people hehaved. They had one lady stand up and tell
them how wonderuf LSD, Crack, and Cocaine was and what it had done for
her. This was a deliverate seminar for apparently forty or fifty Judeo-Christian
United Methodist Minsiters. According tot his United Methodist minister,
he heard no criticism of the program form any other minister.
We don't know whether our Christian people acutally realize what
is going on among the men in the pulpits of this nation, or not. Apparently
most are blind to what is happening inside the Judeo-Christian church.
God says of these ministers at that time:
"...he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war
againt him, Therefore night shall be unto you, thatye shall hot have a
vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the
sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them."
(Micah 3;5-6)
God will send blindness and a darkness on the Judeo-Christian
preachers and prophets, that they will nto be able to preach the Word of
God to the people. Now that is what He said through His prophet Micah to
Israel back at the time when they were in disobendience to the Lord.
"Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded:
yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God." (Micah
3:7)
"...he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they
have behaved themselves ill in their doings." (Micah 3:4)
There is no answer of God or by God, and today, these Judeo-Christian
ministers are so blind to what is happening in this land and among the
churches, that they are actually now beginning to preach that God isn't
doing anyting; in fact there is some who preach that it is a possibility
that God is dead. Now why do you think that they think God is dead? The
reason is that they do not see God doing anything in America.
Now, you think this is just true of these black ministers and
these revolutionists? How many of you have ever heard Billy Graham or Billy
James Hargis or Carl McIntyre tell you anything that God is doing in America?
Have any of you heard anything?
Billy James Hargis or John Hagee will spend hours every weeek
on television telling you what the communists are doign in America, but
they will NEVER tell you what the Jews are doing. Nor will they will never
utter a word as to what God is doin. You know why? Because he doesn't know
anything about God or what He is doing. Carl McIntyre used to spend hour
after hour after hour, five days a week, 30 minutes a day, on six hundred
radio stations, telling people what the communsits were doing, but he never
gave a word about what God is doing. The same can be said of any of the
following: Jim Bakker (Jew), Mike Evans (Jew), Billy Graham (Jew), Kenneth
Copelan (Jew), Robert Schuler, Oral Roberts, Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson,
Jerry Falwell (A so-called Christian Zionist), John Hagee, V.W. Grant,
Larry Buricett, Paul Crouch, Skip Heitzig, Hal Lindsey (Jew), Chuck Missler,
Mark Eastman, David Hocking, Jack Van Impe, Binny Hinn (Jew), Frank Peretti,
Chuck Smith, Toni Eareckson Tada, Tom Cloud, Ted Bachr, John McDowell.
You know why? Because has sent blackness and darkness upon those
Judeo-Christian ministers because they won't have the Word. Therefore God
has completely blinded them and there is no way that they can read the
Bible and make sense out of it; to tell the people what God is doing in
America. All they see is the other side. Why? Because there is no answer
of God. God is not answering their prayers or our prayers. Nothing is happening
as far as they're concerned, and they don't know what's going on. All they
can do is tell the people, O, isn't it terrible, how evil, and so on.
During the Vietnam war there were groups forming to pray for victory
in Vietnam. What is America doing now? We turned away from even praying
for a victory and began writing letters to the enemy saying: "Won't you
be nice to our boys in the prison camps?" You think America hasn't turned
away from God? In disobedience? Brother and Sister, if our people had believed
in God, and what He say, and in His power, we would have at least pray
to Him to bring an earthquake on the jails like He did when Paul was in
prison, and open up North Vietnam by an earthquake, and destroy those cities
and release those prisoners.
But instead what was the Judeo-Christian world doing? They were
writi8ng letters to Hanoi; and every body was getting on the program: "Write
letters and ask the enemy if they won't be nice to our boys and let the
letters through." Apparently our peol ehave arrived at a point where they
are so fearful, and unbelieving, and untrusting in God Almighty, that they
don't even know how to ask Him or believe Him for the simplest little things
in the world.
We have become so degenerate and evil, that our leaders were able
to murder hundreds of thousands of Iraqi soldiers when they made the mistake
and believed then President Bush that if they would lay down their arms
they would be allowed to go home. But when they did lay down their arms,
the Jewish commanders ordered the slaughter of the troops as they were
strung out in a long column headed home and without weapons.
The Jews and their lackys are murdering innocent unborn babies
by the millions in this country, and NOT A PEEP FROM THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN
CLERGY because of their fear of the government taking away their tax exempt
status. WHEN THEY SHOULD BE SHOUTING FROM THE ROOFTOPS AGAINST THIS EVIL
AND LEADING TRUE MEN OF GOD AGAINST THEM AND DESTROYING THE MURDERS AND
THEIR HELPERS.
You read what Micah said about the other preachers; now here is
what he says about himself:
"But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the Lord, and of
judgment, and of might." (Micah 3:8)
To do what?
"...to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his
sin." (Micah 3:8)
Micah said yes, I am a prophet, and I can tell you that the rest
of these "prophets" in this land can't tell anything that's going on; they
don't know whats happening. Micah had the spirit and power of the Lord;
but what did he have it for? To do one thing: DECLARE UNTO JACOB HIS TRANSGRESSION,
AND UNTO ISRAEL HIS SIN.
God Will Punish America - Part

As a Watchman on the Wall of Israel, or as an Israel-Identity
minister, we don't disagree with the idea of preaching the good news of
the Gospel of the Kingdom; the Truth of the Bible that Christ will rule
and reign in righteousness on the earth, and destroy all the wicked and
set up HisKingdom. Praise the Lord for that Gospel; but in the time of
disobedience of Israel you will find that Micah was given the Spirit and
power of the Lord to do one thing: Tell Israel their sins, and Jacob their
transgressions. You'll notice when he started out the first verse of this
idea, God was talking to the heads of Jacob and the princes of the House
of Israel. If there is anyone failing among all the Judeo-Christian ministers
of this nation, and we believe of us CI people to a certain extnet, we
have not gone to the political and civil leaders of this nation and told
them? God Almighty is going to burn down our cities, and He's going to
bring famine on this land, He's going to bring pestillence, and He's going
to kill our people by the hundreds of hoursands, until we do One Ting:
TURN TO THE WORD OF THE LORD AND OBEY HIS LAWS, STATUTES, AND JUDGMENTS.
The men in Washington, D.C., who are the civil leaders of the
nation, do not know that the drug addiction in America is a curse from
God; they just don't know that. They do not know such a simple thing as
the smog we have our our cities is actually judgments from God Almighty,
or the diseases that are beginnign to run rampant in our country. Brought
in by the horde of illegal immigrants from all parts of the world, which
is the much people spoken of in Ezekiel 38.
"After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou
shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered
out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always
waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell
safely all of them. Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt
be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, AND MANY PEOPLE
WITH THEE." (Ezekiel 38:8-9)
You know what part of our problem is? Nobody tells them that this
is a judgment from God Almighty upon the nation. They desperately try to
seek some solutino. Micah said the natino of Israel was in this condition;
the people were being taxed to death, destryed and killed in foreign wars.
The prophets were blind, no one could see. But he ahd been given the power
and the Spirit of God for one thing: SHOW JACOB THEIR TRANSGRESSIONS AND
ISRAEL THEIR SINS. We think that is going to have to be don in this land.
"Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob...(again,
going back to the leaders in the nation)...and princes of the house of
Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity. They build up Zion
with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity." (Micah 3:9-10)
Now, let's read this next verse, and you tell us this isn't America:
"The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach
for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money..." (Micah 3:11)
Now the Scripture says money answereth all things. (Ecclesiastes
10:19) What do we find out? According to Micah, the politicans rule and
make their judgment for money. The priests teach for money, and the prophets
lie for money. You are not gong to get very much truth in the land when
you find that every decision by the top rulers, the priests and the prophets
in Israel, is done for money. To this we will add: We at least want to
get this point across: God Almighty's Word is going to go to this nation
of people, even if He has toshut up some of the preachers.
