The editor after coming out of the Worldwide Church of God decided to find a book that explained clearly what the Catholics DID believe. Woe and behold the book "The Catholic Faith" by Roderick Strange ISBN 0-19-283051-1 produced the "explanation".
As readers know we did throw out a challenge to any reader that could find in the bible both in the Old as well as in the New where there was a scripture that showed the trinity doctrine and said "God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost or Spirit" highlighting that neither the word Trinity or the scripture could be found.
We got a reply back from a reader that said that while there was no scripture, the trinity doctrine permeated both the Old and New Testament. The editor also challenged very politely a scientist colleague to do the same and sure enough their reply came back the word Trinity does not exist in the Bible. Both of these individuals are in the Church of England, the organisation of which also does not exist in the good book.
As page 179 of the Catholic faith book points out that: There is no Trinitarian doctrine in the old Testament, this shows the Church of England at loggerheads with the Catholics, surprise surprise, but at least from the Catholic point of view it cuts the problem in half.
Then as we got deeper into the book and going through a few scriptures that appears to prove a three in one being, on page 180 it makes the statement that --"The perception of God as Father and Son and Spirit is very clear in the New Testament. (BUT) It is not a proof of Trinitarian doctrine, but it bears witness to the experience of the early church." We have added the "BUT."
The author of the book then goes on to explain that he attended a talk in which the speaker recalled a conversation he had had with a Benedictine monk. The monk was deploring how little consideration we give to the Trinity nowadays. The author then apparently asked the monk to describe the Trinity doctrine. "You must contemplate and contemplate and contemplate, he said until your eyes bleed. And then perhaps you may be able to perceive some small truth." And what small truth have you perceived He was asked. He replied, "That relation are real."
This meant that this poor deceived Catholic monk had spent many thousands of hours contemplating the Trinity Doctrine, basically a figment in his imagination, to come to the conclusion that RELATIONS ARE REAL. A child could have told him that when it shouts
out.
So where did this figment of the imagination come from? We will let Hislop
explain, who shows how Rome of Christ's time, and the original
Babylon and ours in 1998 are very similar.
If there be this general coincidence between the systems of Babylon and Rome, the question arises, does the coincidence stop here? To this the answer is, Far otherwise. We have only to bring the ancient Babylonian Mysteries to bear on the whole system of Rome, and then it will be seen how immensely the one has borrowed from the other. These Mysteries were long shrouded in darkness, but now the thick darkness begins to pass away. All who have paid the least attention to the literature of Greece, Egypt, Phenicia, or Rome are aware of the place which the "Mysteries" occupied in the countries and that, whatever circumstantial diversities there might be, in all essential respects these "Mysteries" in the different countries were the same.
Now, as the language of Jeremiah, would indicate that Babylon was the primal source from which all these systems of idolatry flowed, so the deductions of the most learned historians, on mere historical grounds, have led to the same conclusion. From Zonaras we find that the concurrent testimony of the ancient authors he had consulted was to this effect; for, speaking of arithmetic and astronomy, he says: "It in said that these came from the Chaldee to the Egyptians, and then to the Greeks." If the Egyptians and Greeks derived their arithmetic and astronomy from Chaldee, seeing these in Chaldea were sacred sciences, and monopolised by the priests, that is sufficient evidence that they must have derived their- religion from the same quarter. Both Bunsen and Layard in their researches have come to substantially the same result.
The statement of Bunsen is to the effect that the religious system of Egypt was derived from Asia, and "the primitive empire in Babel." Layard, again, though taking a some what more favourable view of the system of the Chaldean MAGI, than, I am persuaded, the facts of history warrant, nevertheless thus speaks of that system:- "Of the great antiquity of this primitive worship there is abundant evidence, and that it originated among the inhabitants of the Assyrian plains, we have the united testimony of sacred and profane history.
It obtained the epithet of perfect, and was believed to be the most ancient of religious systems, having preceded that of the Egyptians (Egyptiis vero antiquiores esse MAGOS Aristoteles auctor est in primo de Philosophia libro.-Theopompi Frag.)." "The identity," he adds, "of many of the Assyrian doctrines with those of Egypt is alluded to-by Porphyry and Clemens;" and, in connection with the same subject, he quotes the following from Birch on Babylonian cylinders and monuments: - " The zodiacal signs . . . . show unequivocally that the Greeks derived their notions and arrangements of the zodiac [and consequently their Mythology that was intertwined with it] from the Chaldees. The identity of Nimrod with the constellation Orion is not to be rejected."
Ouvaroff, also, in his learned work on the Eleusinian mysteries, has come to the same conclusion. After referring to the fact that the Egyptian priests claimed the honour of having transmitted to the Greeks the first elements of Polytheism, he thus concludes:- "These positive facts would sufficiently prove even without the conformity of ideas, that the Mysteries transplanted into Greece, and there united with a certain number of local notions, never lost the character of their origin derived from the cradle of the moral and religious ideas of the universe. All these separate facts---all these scattered testimonies, recur to that fruitful principle which places in the East the centre of science and civilisation"
If thus we have evidence that Egypt and Greece derived their religion from Babylon, we have equal evidence that the religious, system of the Phoenicians came from the same source. Macrobius shows that the distinguishing feature of the Phoenician idolatry must have been imported from Assyria, which, in classic writers, included Babylonia. "The worship of the Architic Venus," says he, "formerly flourished as much among the Assyrians as it does now among the Phoenicians."
Now to establish the identity between the systems of ancient Babylon and Papal Rome, we have just to inquire in how far does the Papacy agree with the system established in these Babylonian Mysteries. In prosecuting such an inquiry there are considerable difficulties to be overcome; for, as in geology, it is impossible at all points to reach the deep underlying strata of the earths surface, so it is not to be expected that in any one country we should find a complete and connected account of the system established in that country. But yet, even as the geologist, by examining the contents of a fissure here, an upheaval there, and what "crops out" of itself on the surface elsewhere enables us to determine, with wonderful certainty the order and general contents of the different strata over all the earth, so is it with the subject of the Chaldean Mysteries.
What is wanted in one country is supplemented in another; and what actually "crops out" in different directions, to a large extent necessarily determines the character of much that does not directly appear on the surface. Taking, then the admitted unity and Babylonian character of the ancient Mysteries of Egypt, Greece, Phenicia, and Rome, as the clue to guide us in our researches, let us go on from step to step in our comparison of the doctrine and practice of the two Babylons- the Babylon of the Old Testament and the Babylon of the New.
And here I have to notice, first, the identity of the objects of worship in Babylon and Rome. The ancient Babylonians, just as the modern Romans, recognised in words the unity of the Godhead; and, while worshipping innumerable minor deities, as possessed of certain influence on human affairs, they distinctly acknowledged that there was ONE infinite and Almighty Creator, supreme over all. Most other nations did the same. " In the early ages of mankind," says Wilkinson in his " Ancient Egyptians," " the existence of a sole and omnipotent Deity, who created all things, seems to have been the universal belief; and tradition taught men the same notions on the subject, which, in later times, have been adopted by all civilised nations."
" The Gothic religion," says Mallet, " taught the being of a supreme God, Master of the Universe, to whom all things we submissive and obedient."-(Tacit. de Morib. Germ.) The ancient Icelandic mythology calls him " the Author of every thing that existeth, the eternal, the living, and awful Being; the searcher into concealed things, the Being that never changeth." It attributeth to this deity "an infinite power, a boundless knowledge, and incorruptible justice." We have evidence of the same having been the faith of ancient Hindostan. Though modern Hindduism recognises millions of gods, yet the Indian sacred books show that originally it had been far otherwise. Major Moor, speaking of Brahm, the supreme God of the Hindoos says:
" Of Him whose Glory is so great, there is no image " (Veda). He " illumines all, delights all, whence all proceeded; that by which they live when born, and that to which all must return " (Veda). In the " Institutes of Men," he is characterized as "He whom the mind alone can perceive; whose essence eludes the external organs, who has no visible part, who exists from eternity . . . . the soul of all beings, whom no being can comprehend." In these passages, there is a trace of the existence of Pantheism; but the very language employed bears testimony to the existence among the Hindoos at one period of a far purer faith.
Nay, not merely had the ancient Hindoos exalted ideas of the natural perfections of God, but there is evidence that they were well aware of the gracious character of God, as revealed in His dealings with a lost and guilty world. This is manifest from the very name Brahm, appropriated by them to the one infinite and eternal God. There has been a great deal of unsatisfactory speculation in regard to the meaning of this name, but when the different statements in regard to Brahm are carefully considered, it becomes evident that the name Brahm is just the Hebrew Rahm, with the digamma prefixed, which is very frequent in Sanscrit words derived from Hebrew or Chaldee.
Rahm in Hebrew signifies " The merciful or compassionate one." But Rahm also signifies the WOMB or the bowels; as the seat of compassion. Now we find such language applied to Brahm, the one supreme God, as cannot be accounted for, except on the supposition that Brahm had the very same meaning as the Hebrew Rahm. Thus, we find the God Crishna, in one of the Hindoo sacred books, when asserting his high dignity as a divinity and his identity with the Supreme, using the following words: "The great Brahm is my WOMB, and in it I place my foetus, and from it is the procreation of all nature. The great Brahm is the WOMB Of all the various forms which are conceived in every natural womb."
How could such language ever have been applied to "The supreme Brahm, the most holy, the most high God, the Divine being, before all other gods; without birth, the mighty Lord, God of gods, the universal Lord," but from the connection between Rahm "the womb" and Rahm " the merciful one " ? Here, then, we find that Brahm is just the same as " Er-Rahman," "The all-merciful one,"-a title applied by the Turks to the Most High, and that the Hindoos, notwithstanding their deep religious degradation now, had once known that " the most holy, most high God," is also "The God of Mercy," in other words, that he is "a just God and a Saviour." And proceeding on this interpretation of the name Brahm, we see how exactly their religious knowledge as to the creation had coincided with the account of the origin of all things, as given in Genesis.
It is well known that the Brahmins, to exalt themselves as a priestly, half-divine caste, to whom all others ought to bow down, have for many ages taught that, while the other castes came from the arms, and body and feet of Brahmà----the visible representative and manifestation of the invisible Brahm, and identified with him- they alone came from the mouth of the creative God. Now we find statements in their sacred books which prove that once a very different doctrine must have been taught. Thus, in one of the Vedas, speaking of Brahmà, it is expressly stated that "All beings" "are created from his MOUTH."
In the passage in question an attempt is made to mystify the matter; but, taken in connection with the meaning of the name Brahm, as already given, who can doubt what was the real meaning of the statement, opposed though it be to the lofty an exclusive pretensions of the Brahmins? It evidently meant that He who, ever since the fall, has been revealed to man as the " Merciful and Gracious One " (Exod. 34:6), was known at the same time as the Almighty One, who in the beginning "spake and it was done," "commanded and all things stood fast," who made all things by the " Word of His power."
After what has now been said, any one who consults the "Asiatic Researches," vol. vii. p. 293, may see that it is in a great measure from a wicked perversion of this Divine title of the One Living and True God, a title that ought to have been so dear to sinful men, that all those moral abominations have come that make the symbols of the pagan temples of India so offensive to the eye of purity.
So utterly idolatrous was the Babylonian recognition of the Divine unity, that Jehovah, the Living God, severely condemned His people for giving any countenance to it: " They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens, after the rites of the ONLY ONE (Hislops comments) eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together " (Isaiah 116:17). In the unity of that one Only God of the Babylonians, there were three persons and to symbolise that doctrine of the Trinity, they employed, as the discoveries of Layard prove, the equilateral triangle, just as it is well known the Romish Church does at this day.
In both cases such a comparison is most degrading to the King Eternal, and is fitted utterly to pervert the minds of those who contemplate it, as if there was or could be any similitude between such a figure and Him who hath said, "To whom will ye liken God, and what likeness will ye compare unto Him ?"
The Papacy has in some of its churches, as, for instance, in monastery of the so-called Trinitarians of Madrid, an image of the Triune God, with three heads on one body. The Babylonians had something of the same. Mr. Layard, in his last work, has give a specimen of such a triune divinity, worshipped in ancient Assyria, (Fig. 3). The accompanying cut (Fig. 4) [Editors comment: these figures are on page 17 of the Two Babylones] of such another divinity, worshipped among the Pagans of Siberia, is taken from a medal, the Imperial Cabinet of St. Petersburg, and given in Parson's "Japhet."
The three heads are differently arranged in Layards, specimen, but both alike are evidently intended to symbolise the same great lie although all such representations of the Trinity necessarily and utterly debase the conceptions of those, among whom such images prevail, in regard to that sublime mystery of our faith. In India, the supreme divinity, in like manner, in one of the most ancient cave-temples, is represented with three heads on one body under the name of " Eko Deva Trimurtti" " One God, three forms." In Japan, the Buddhists worship their great divine Buddha, with three heads, in the very same form, under the name "San Pao Fuh."
All these have existed from ancient time. While overlaid with idolatry, the recognition of a Trinity was universal all the ancient nations of the world, proving how deep-rooted in the human race was the primeval doctrine on this subject. When we look at the symbols in the triune figure of Layard, already referred to, and minutely examine them, they are very instructive. Layard regards circle in that figure as signifying "Time without bounds." But the hieroglyphic meaning of the circle is evidently different. A circle in Chaldea was; zero; and zero also signified " the seed." Therefore according to the genius of the mystic system of Chaldea, which to a large extent founded on double meanings, that which, to eyes of men in general, was only zero, " a circle," was understood by the initiated to signify zero, " the seed."
Now, viewed in this light the triune emblem of the supreme Assyrian divinity shows clearly what had been the original patriarchal faith. First, there is head of the old man; next, there is the zero, or circle, for seed; " and lastly, the wings and tail of the bird or dove; showing, though blasphemously, the unity of Father, Seed, or Son, and Holy Ghost. While this had been the original way in which Pagan idolatry had represented the Triune God, and though this kind of representation had survived to Sennacherib's time, yet there is evidence that, at a very early period, an important change had taken place in the Babylonian notions in regard to the divinity; and that the three persons had come to be, the Eternal Father, the Spirit of God incarnate in a human mother, and a Divine Son, the fruit of that incarnation.
While this was the theory, the first person in the Godhead was practically overlooked. As the Great Invisible, taking no immediate concern in human affairs, he was " to be worshipped through silence alone" that is, in point of fact, he was NOT worshipped by the multitude at all.
Editors comment--In fact if you worship the three headed monster or a DEAD Christ on a stake or keep looking at a silver cross, then Satan has got you worshipping SATAN and not the Ancient of Days.
This has been taken from Hislop. The TWO BABYLONS pages 12-19.
Conclusion so far by the Editor.
In other words if you ask the Pope or a priest to explain the Trinity doctrine they will say it is SPIRITUALLY discerned, or next year laddy, or god will give you understanding in due time. The poor catholic goes away MYSTIFIED. And that is the controlling key. It is a mystery religion of Babylonian origin. All the time you believe that the POPE knows something of great importance that only God has revealed to him and only the POPE or the Bishop understands, and you obey instructions unquestioningly; then the individual is MIND controlled by an external mind. Above all else the individual is definitely NOT encouraged to read the Bible for themselves; after all they might learn something; that the Trinity doctrine is a figment of mens imagination of Babylonian origin or to put it bluntly it is of Satan the Devil.
Let us first and foremost talk about the being known as the ONE TRUE GOD. This is the being that has had no beginning and will have no end. He is known as the ALL powerful and is also the Eternal and his influence extends everywhere from the outer reaches of the universe to the very innermost centre of your own being. This is the "all in all" God being of most religious organisations. He is also known as Jehovah or Yahveh. The Jews recognise him because he is the one that has NEVER been to earth simply because, in his FULL glory he is an ALL CONSUMING FIRE.
This being is a spirit being in the sense that he is not flesh and blood. He has a spirit in the sense that he has his own personality and no one else is like him. To identify him even further He is the Lord God Almighty both of the Old and New Testament. Rev 21:22 "Lord God Almighty and the Lamb". He has the ability to switch his light power on and off.
This Lord God has a nature that has MULTIPLE CHARACTERISTICS. Isaiah 11:2 "And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of Wisdom and Understanding, the spirit of Counsel and Might the spirit of Knowledge and of the Fear of the LORD." The spirit of God is the spirit of POWER. Job 26:12. He divideth the sea by his POWER and verse 13 by his spirit he hath garnished (decorated) the heavens. And Psalm 66:7 He ruleth by his POWER forever;----------.
All of these characteristics are being given by The Ancient of Days i.e. The Lord God ALMIGHTY to his son which appeared two thousand years ago.
There is NOTHING about a threesome or a Trinitarian about him. When the Ancient of Days does something it is by the BILLION. How many stars are there? Billions, how many seeds are there on earth created each year billions of them. All by the same ONE GOD BEING.
This same Ancient of Days is also known as THE Father, after the being known as the "Christ" was born. The Ancient of Days has never been to earth.
Man has only got to catch a cold or stub his toe on a chair or go without
food and water for a short while, as in a fast and it become very obvious to him
that he is a flesh and blood human being that will die.
As we entered the Worldwide Church of God under the then Mr Armstrong many
years ago there was a controversy raging that "man did not have a spirit" to
man did have a spirit.
It was when some one had read 1 Corinthians 2:11, "For what man knoweth the
things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in
him? Even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit
of God." That it became obvious.
So, not only does God (the Ancient of Days) have his own individual Spirit
BUT also every man alive has a spirit in him.
Dan 2:1 Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit
was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.Shows also that man has a spirit.
Daniel 5:11, shows also that not only did Daniel have his own
spirit but he was one of those rare individuals that also had GODS HOLY Spirit
in him. Math 26:41 another place which shows where the spirit (in man) is
willing but the flesh is weak. Job 32:8 There is a spirit in
man and the inspiration giveth them understanding
So what is this spirit which is in man? Well you the reader
as you absorb this knowledge IS that spirit. Let us explain. Hellen Keller was a
lady that was born both deaf and blind, hence she could not speak. She was a
human being that had missed out on two of the major senses. Without the five
major senses one is almost a vegetable. This spirit is also classed as being
your mind.
The sixth sense or awareness would only make her more frustrated. It was only
when TEACHER could hand write the word C.U.P in her hand and physically give her
a cup in her hand so that she could connect the two ideas that her SPIRIT was
uplifted. Your spirit is what you are born with and come from both parents and
can only be explained as being your own individual electromagnetic pattern or
you without your body or senses. Visually your spirit connects with the outside
world through the electrical circuits of your visual senses and
your eyes. Your sense of touch and feelings is by the electrical circuits of
your body.
Without your body with its six senses your spirit might just as well be dead.
Where does this individual spirit come from?
Well the book of Ecclesiastes give the simple answer. Eccl.12:7 and the
spirit shall return unto GOD who gave it. Then there is another
little gem in Eccl. 3:21 Who knoweth the spirt of man that goeth
upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth
downward to the earth? This shows that all organic life forms
have a spirit. This includes dogs and it is a well known fact of life that a
mans best friend generally speaking is his dog although the editor does not
posses one.
Finally on this subject and just to highlight the point. Luke 23:46 And when
Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, into thy hands I commend my
spirit: (mind) and having said thus , he gave us the ghost (expired).
When Christs' spirit went back to the Father he knew
nothing. When we die, the body goes into the earth and our spirit goes
back to the Father and we know NOTHING. When we die it is just
like going to sleep.
There are grades of individual spirit or personality. They range from the
negative or EVIL spirits of which Satan the devil is the most prevalent of its
type. Going through demons then the neutral insect life, then the more positive
or organic types like us humans in our better moods, next are the more positive
angels who are higher up the scale. God the Ancient of days, the Father,
has the lot, and this includes the supreme super positive top end of
the scale which is the Pure or Holy Spirit.
Now lets talk about the second or other being also known as GOD. We are now
talking about the western worlds or Christian God. This being is known as the
WORD, the logos, the spokesman, Yashua, the Christ, the Messiah. This being came
to the earth after the surface of the earth was destroyed after the rebellion of
atomic war. He most probably came to earth with a host of angels everyone with
their light power switched off i.e. invisible. Seeing the earth in chaos it was
the Logos that gave the instruction to "Let there be light" and they ALL
switched on their light power and all became visible. Write for our free article
ORIGINS.
It was this same being that switched off his light power but remained visible
and created ADAM then EVE and walked the earth with them. He was also King of
Salem, Melchizidec. It was the Logos or the Word still the same second being
that was on the top of Mount Sinai as a GOD being in all his BRIGHT GLORY that
got as close as he dare to showing himself to Moses. Write for our free article
"What God is actually like."
It was still this same being who had always been in existence with the First
Being Known as the Ancient of Days who after the Tribes of Israel had rebelled
against God that knew he would have to give up all his power and glory to the
Ancient of Days and come and live life on earth as a human being and DIE for
mans sins and have his Father, known as the Ancient of Days to put his own
spirit back in him and RAISE him up after 72 hours.
The Messiah now having conquered death; if anyone believed him could also
receive the HOLY Spirit and also be given everlasting life at a later time.
Where does the HOLY Spirit come from? Is it really a third person in a
trinity ? Or does it come from the Being Known as the Ancient of Days and also
now the Father?
Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your
children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the HOLY SPIRIT to
them that ask him?
Where does the Holy spirit come from? Check it again; FROM THE HEAVENLY
FATHER.
Who can receive the Holy Spirit? THEM THAT ASK HIM.
Again 1 Thess. 4:8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God,
who hath also given unto us HIS Holy Spirit.
Where does it come from? GOD (the Father). Who's Holy Spirit is it? HIS. It
does not belong to an imaginary third person. And is NOT an imaginary third
person.
Who is the Great Comforter? Explain that and we are almost there. Again the
answer is clear and simple. John 17 (yes the big book) is a chapter in which
Christ is about to be crucified and he obviously wanted
comforting. Who did he pray to? THE FATHER. John 17:1 These
word spake Jesus and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said,
Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy son
also may glorify thee: v2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he
should give eternal life to AS MANY AS THOU HAS GIVEN HIM.
The Ancient of Days now also the Father, IS the great comforter. Who
is the great TEACHER? That's right the Ancient of Days or the Eternal, He that
has ALL WISDOM ALL KNOWLEDGE AND ALL UNDERSTANDING.
Now this is something which the Trinitarian believers absolutely detest. An
individual person cannot be poured as water is poured from a kettle BUT power
can. Where do you think the pictures in your television set come from? The main
television transmitter. How does it get to your set? The power is transmitted
from the large aerial, or transmitter, that is what a transmitter does; it
transmits power to the atoms in the air around it. It is then radiated in all
directions around it; it is then electromagnetically transmitted or
poured out in all directions. Your television aerial picks up
the signal and you are then excited by the pictures and sounds.

Bible Appeal
We have many readers in Africa ranging from 7 to 21 who are appealing for
Bibles. These young people REALLY WANT TO KNOW ABOUT GOD.
Please NOTE that these people unlike most in the world are NOT asking for
money so you do not have to put your hand in your pocket. What they want is
Bibles and any educational material like "O" level books (or GCSE).
We are simply going to appeal to you to dig out your old Bibles that you
don't want and send them by sea mail to:
Headquarters of African Work
Church of God
P.O.Box 65
Prestea, West Region
GHANA, West Africa
As this is a global operation we simply ask you to tell your friends about it
and then as your friends tell others ETC; Africa will have a positive response.
God willing Ghana will then receive something. We will keep you informed.

Jacobs Trouble
How do we know that the Ancient of Days is the Great pourer? Isaiah 44:3 Says
For I will pour water upon him that is thirst, and floods upon the dry ground: I
will POUR MY SPIRIT upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine
offspring. Who is he talking to? Isaiah 43:10 says Ye are my witnesses,
saith the Lord. You mean the Jehovah Witnesses? No--they don't exist as
an organisation in the Bible. Isaiah 43:1 he is talking to
Jacob and the now modern day TRUE Israel: Britain
and America the modern day Palestinian Israel is but one
minute Tribe of the House of Israel called Judah--modern day Jews. With
the rest scattered throughout the world.
Proverbs 1:23--behold, I will POUR OUT MY SPIRIT unto you. Ezek. 39:29
Neither will I hide my face anymore from them: for I HAVE
POURED OUT MY SPIRIT upon the house of Israel , Saith the Lord God. This will be
a future Britain and America etc after JACOBS TROUBLE.
Lets assume that after the GREAT TRIBULATION. Britain and America and
the rest of the 12 Tribes of Israel amount to 5 Billion people. Not only will
the Ancient of Days give 5 Billion people their OWN individual
spirit back to them. But once they have agreed to accept Christ as their saviour
because of his death and resurrection, they will ALSO be given
the Ancient of Days SPIRIT as well. This will be the HOLY Spirit, because the
statement "Neither will I hide my face anymore from them" means
that 5 Billion people will be seeing the Ancient of days AS HE REALLY IS.
They will be 5 billion people made into spirit beings; sons of the living God.
Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will POUR OUT MY
SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH; and your sons and your daughter
shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see
visions.
Now in the book of Revelations which is the book that REVEALS or uncovers,
there are many scriptures that show just how many beings there are in that book.
First and foremost who is doing the actual revealing?
Rev 1:1 Reads--The Revelation of Jesus Christ which GOD gave unto him. Who?
GOD so --GOD we repeat GOD, the same being known as the Ancient of Days and now
the FATHER. It was the Eternal that was passing on the information.
God gave it to Jesus Christ who was now passing it on to John in the Isle of
Patmos in a brilliant vision. Who was doing the talking?
REV 1:11 says; -- "Saying , I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last---"
Most people suddenly jump to the conclusion and say there you are there you
are, there is only "One first and last, one Alpha and Omega so
there"--meaning the Ancient of Days is the only first and last. In fact The
Kingdom of the Cults by Walter Martin page 91 says --which eliminates forever
any confusion as to their being two Firsts and Lasts -------To be
