Prior to the Lord sending the descendants of Manasseh to the New World to establish a nation that would bear His light before the Gentile world, He had settled the tribe of Ephraim in what is today known as Britain, which He also designed to be His light-bearer. The word “British” means “covenant man.” In the past, British people were commonly referred to as “John bull” in reference to the episode at Mt. Sinai. These were the descendants of Abraham with whom God had made a covenant in which He promised him that his descendants would exercise great power throughout the world. In fulfilment of that same prophecy given to the two sons of Joseph–Manasseh and Ephraim–by their grandfather Jacob (Israel), Abraham’s  descendants came to dominate the world for many years beginning in the early 1800’s.  Beginning at the time of Jacob/Israel’s prophecy, only the sons of Joseph would thereafter  bear the name “Israel” before the world and would be the face of the ancient House of Israel. From that time on, the word “Israel” would refer only to Joseph’s sons.  The Israelites of Britain and the United States would thereafter represent the ancient fathers–Abraham, Isaac and Jacob–before the world. It is from the descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh that the Church of God (not the denomination) was formed.

Following the founding of their respective nations the Israelites of Britain and the U.S. began to lose their Israelite identity. Today vast majority of those nations no nothing about their Israelite heritage.   Others, those who know and embrace their ancestry, have come together globally in spiritual unity, along with those Gentiles who have become spiritual Israelites just as did the “mixed multitude” of Gentiles that came out of Egypt with the children of Israel. This one, tiny, rejected group comprises the entirety of the Church of God–the Biblical name for the Body of Christ. Just as Jesus warned in Matthew 7:13,14, few have chosen to enter His strait gate and walk the narrow way of His church. These few comprise the true Body of Christ.  Jesus also warned that many would choose to enter Satan’s wide gate and walk the broad way of his counterfeit church. These are those within the Catholic/Protestant religious system–the counterfeit church.

The scenario that played out at Mt. Sinai has been played out in modern times. The primary difference is that the early Israelites only dreamed of returning to the calf-god religion where they could live lives of sin and decadence and get away with it as long as they worked.  Today, their descendants have created their own version of a calf-god (church) where they can sin at will and, due to God’s grace, get away with it, as long as they work–show up and embrace the church’s prescribed rituals and beliefs. Anciently, the Levites–God’s true followers–remained true to Him while the vast majority wanted to return to Egypt, His minutely few Very Elect remained true to Him when the masses fell away. Today only a few remain true to Him while the billions in “the church” serve Satan.  And just as did the Israelites at Mt. Sinai, they meet to worship and serve him by honoring “the Lord.” Being ignorant and unbelieving of God’s Word, they believe that they are indeed honoring the Biblical God. Indeed, Satan has deceived the whole world (Rev. 12:9).

This religious absurdity has not come about by accident. Someone is pulling the church’s “strings.”  Above the world-encircling religious system which calls itself “Christianity” looms the creator of all false religion–Satan. Like a puppeteer, he controls the myriad of Catholic and Protestant Churches scattered throughout the world. He has provided a have-it-your-way church system led by various “ministers of righteousness” whom he uses to tell the people what they want to hear. Within his golden calf (church) system billions of parishioners have found their “safe spaces” where they can go to have their itching ears scratched by smooth things, lies and deceits which flow from their leaders’ mouths. This is reminiscent of Satan’s saying to Adam and Eve that they could sin and not surely die.” This is the message his false prophets relay to the Institutional Church today. Billions of “sinners saved by grace” spiritually nod in agreement. And their god smiles.

Today we find Israel (Britain and the U.S.) following in the footsteps of their forefathers (ancient Israel). Having rejected God’s Word and having ignored God’s warnings (wars, “natural disasters,” disease, etc.) they are now experiencing the beginning blasts of God’s wrath which will conclude with the eradication of Britain and the United States, EXACTLY AS HE PROPHESIED IN LEVITICUS 26 AND DEUTERONOMY 28. Anciently He brought about the military defeat, slaughter and enslavement of the Israelite people because of their rebellion against Him. He will soon do the same to their descendants–Britain and the United States–for the same reason. “God is not mocked; whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap.” The modern nations of Israel have sown the wind. Now they will reap the whirlwind.

It is too late to save the nations of Israel. However, it is not too late to save the Israelites within them. L.J.
