Dear Brethren of the Philadelphian dispersion(ex-worldwide church of God members) of the Church of God,
Once again, Greetings to all, and hope all is well with God’s Elect people, His Church having the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. I have not forgotten you brethren as the world continues at an ever increasing speed to perditions end, i.e. to fulfill its last days according to God’s prophetic Word which He gave to the prophets of old, the Apostles and Christ Himself. I sincerely hope brethren all are watching and praying, not distracted by Satan’s attempts to distract us, as the world and the powers that be continue on the road to an ever increasing state of insanity, as well as Satan’s scheming to destroy God’s people continues unabated, using brethren’s personal problems and trials from within and without to hurt and maim and even destroy our people as individuals and families as a whole. His efforts are increasing in this his main agenda in direct proportion in his efforts to destroy humanity as a whole, and using the world’s madness and lunacy, which has turned everything upside down and inside out as sin, abominations, filthiness, famines, disease, death and destruction becomes the norm, to bring destruction on God’s beloved Church and bride of Christ our Lord and Saviour.
“There is no one who is good in this world, not one! There is none that are righteous and seek good and righteous judgment! No one seeks after GOD! In all this world, evil(Satan) rules over men who worship evil, as the heart of men is deceitful above all things, as men seek answers in men in all disciplines, who are ruled by evil, and deny the only GOD who Created ALL that IS, The GOD of Israel and all Creation, Who will soon seat in judgment over evil, when the hearts of men shall wax cold and there will be waling and gnashing of teeth!”.
Mystery Babylon the great the mother of harlots with her Abominations has already risen and in full swing; as immorality, decadency, filthiness, debauchery, Abominable acts of men unto men and even innocent children as the list goes on; and even worse as the world can no longer discern the difference between light and darkness, good and bad, sin and righteousness, morality and immorality, Holy and the unholy. In the past it could to some degree, today this discernment is null and void as chaos and darkness reigns upon the earth. War, death, destruction etc is now normalised, and anyone speaking against wickedness is considered mentally unstable.
Yes indeed, Sodom and Gomorrah will rise on that ‘Great day of Judgment’ and condemn the 20th century, for it had the Word of God preached to it for nearly 60 years by the Philadelphia era of the Church of God, under God’s late end time Apostle Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong, and it did not repent, but rebelled and sinned even seven times seventy fold. Yes beloved brethren, this is truly the time for watching and praying deeply(for God’s kingdom to come), and also praying with heartfelt prayers for ALL our people who make up the church of God and bride of Christ across the globe, in these dark and sinister times we live.
The Holy scriptures make very clear what and who the church of God is, – those individuals in whom abides God’s Holy Spirit and seek His Righteousness and His Kingdom before and above all else. NOT, any man’s cog organisation of any sort, in spite of what its deceived leaders say, and I don’t say that lightly brethren, as sad as it sounds. Being nearly 500 cog groups speaks for itself. Is Christ divide? No! Is he confused and bewildered ?, Did He lie to us from the start? NO! certainly NOT! And God forbid any that say that, may they be cursed they that do, as the Apostle Paul said in Galatians 1
:6: I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
:7: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
:8: But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
:9: As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
:10: For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
:11: But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
:12: For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
And sadly brethren, many are saying just that, even lay members themselves do just that . They honour Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me, says God Almighty, the Holy One of Israel. Most of God’s true Elect are quietly taking refuge in these groups, but others are isolated, but we are all at this time scattered! But! He/She that endures to the end shall be saved; endures what? Endures to the end according to the Faith God, who does not lie, once delivered according to our calling through God’s one and only end time Apostle, Mr. Herbert W Armstrong, in the Philadelphia era of God’s Church.
Brethren, again I say, these are the days of watching as world events continue to deteriorate, even as I write this greetings. Yes, we are commanded to always be watching and prepared for the coming prophesied last days and return of Christ; and they are fast approaching! Become not weary, or fatigued or tired or even bored spiritually speaking as we hear about these end times, because the world just seems to be continuing on. Let no man take your crown! Our Lord God warned us of this lethargic spiritual state in His many parables. Dear precious brethren to God, as truly you all are very precious to GOD, our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Word stands, and His Will will be done, and His prophetic events as outlined in the Holy scriptures will be accomplished and fulfilled down to the last word.
Behold the Word’s of Christ,
Matthew 24:33: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.:34: Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. :35: Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Now brethren, by 2026 will be 40 years since God’s late Apostle fell asleep, 40 years of testing and purifying God’s church, a 40 year trial of endurance, preparation and qualifying for a position in God’s soon coming Kingdom for those blessed to be in the first resurretion; those who endure to the End of this Age!
At the end of 2018 it will leave seven years to 2026. If this is correct brethren, then 2018 will be a time of dreadful wars to cause the events to quickly evolve into the Matth 24 environment of the last days, and see the 2300 night/day (1150 days) come into play, Dan 8, as well as the complete fulfillment of the 70 week (i.e. the 70th week) prophesy in Dan 9:
Dan 8:
9: And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. 10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. 11 Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. 12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered. 13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? 14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. 24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. 25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. 26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. 27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king’s business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.
Dan 9:27 :
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Dan 12:
Daniel 12:6: And one said to the man(angel) clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?
Daniel 12:7: And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half(three and a half years); and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
Daniel 12:8: And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
Daniel 12:9: And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Daniel 12:10: Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Daniel 12:11: And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Daniel 12:12: Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
Matthew 24:15: When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:):16: Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
:17: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
:18: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
:19: And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
:20: But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
:21: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
:22: And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Dan 12:1And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
:2: And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
:3: And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Daniel 11:44: But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.
:45: And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
Placing these scriptures together brethren gives one a clear picture of the soon coming events. The abomination of desolation shall occur 1150 days before Christ returns, as a man (little horn, seventh king in Rev 17) rises to rule the Beast of Rev 17 along side with the Harlot and joined by 10 kings, to be followed by the great affliction which God will cut short. Therefore events will be moving forward rapidly brethren, plans are been made right now, war WAR is on the horizon , the EU will collapse from its present state of flux and morph and rise with power as the Beast of Rev 17: 8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is., 9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains (seven consecutive governments of the revived Roman Empire from 554AD to end; the first was the Emperor Justinian who revived the Empire in Rome. This is explained in verse 10), on which the woman sitteth.
Revelation of John 17:10: And there are seven kings: five are fallen (Fifth was Napoleon, defeated in 1814AD at Waterloo, ending the 42 month(1260years) continuous rule of this Beast begining in 554AD, Rev 13: And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Revelation of John 13:5: And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.), and one is (Mussolini’s effort late 20s and 30s), and the other is not yet come (seventh and last ruler of the revived Roman Empire in the last days); and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
Revelation of John 17:11: And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth(the original Roman Empire Beast system), and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
Revelation of John 17:12: And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast(during the great tribulation).
Revelation of John 17:13: These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast(as the world plunges to war).
Revelation of John 17:14: These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful (God’s Elect).
And now the ME is waxing hot with a deadly mix of events. Brethren, as I have been saying, much is going on, most behind closed doors together with Vaticanus, as it proves itself to be what it is, swimming in vileness.
Therefore, be watching and praying as God’s Kingdom is desperately needed on Earth as is our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Please keep praying for one another brethren, as well as all brethren and our children who are afflicted with infirmities.
Until next time brethren,
with deep brotherly love to all of God’s people, and may God’s Spirit, Grace and love be abundantly poured on His called out ones, who are the saints of GOD.
your brethren in Christ
Photonic
Ps. Brethren, I would like to paste some of what I wrote on the 7th of January 2018, as I believe it is needful as we enter these last days.
Therefore brethren, let me ask, as the Apostle Paul asked, “ Is Christ divided?”, certainly not! Then why these hundreds of so-called church of God groups claiming they are the ones, and with somewhat different belief systems? Because Satan has chased, deceived and routed those who did not build their house upon the ROCK, had not internalised God’s calling and truth as revealed according to the Faith once delivered; James, the Apostle Peter and Paul and Jude clearly exposes these wild spiritual anarchist who like wild animals seek to devour the true Church of God remnant, believing they are doing God a favour! Why do I say this brethren? Because I see attacks against the true Church of God and HIS end time Apostle increasing and accelerating, even after 30 years after the martyr of God’s beloved Apostle. Since his death so many new (actually they are not new at all, but old and very old recycled heretical and blasphemies teachings from the babylonian mystery religion, which invaded and took over and became the main stream Christianity of the world, and where God’s true Elect fled into the wilderness) demonic doctrines have surface from those who were among us(but not all, some been recent intruders) and now claim to be enlightened and God now working through them to fix HIS early mistakes that HE made in the Philadelphia era of the Church under Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong. These are growing brethren and present a clear and present danger to many of God’s little ones who are weak in faith and vulnerable to Satan’s attacks, as his servants truly come dressed in humble sheeps clothing, saying ‘thus says the Lord’.
Brethren, I repeat the above because of the times and perils we have entered in since Gog challenged the West and fired the first shot to dare, and said, “Thus far and no more!”, as the hords support Gog and now challenge and confront the West and the House of Israel. At the same time Europe is challenged with a massive invasion from an old enemy of over 1200 years; through the pretense of mass migration from war zones in the ME. Europe is threatened and in danger! Therefore nationalism is on the rise among many politicians and all citizens of many European nations as we see the results of political elections. Yet, the House of Israel is helping itself to drown in a sea of pagan religions and nurture monsters to rise against them, as they revel in sin and debauchery, a recipe for God’s wrath to be unleashed on them first, and then Babylon.
And as I have been warning, the EU and NATO(the present EU leaders have failed because they are self serving and for themselves and masters above, and not for the people of Europe as they endeavour to destroy the European heritage, which will be their undoing and give rise to the HRE) will have to collapse and re-morph to meet this challenge and rise out of the abyss, this submerged chaos, with rage and fury and go forth and destroy and annihilate, for not only its rule and power to dominate but also for its very survival as Satan empowers the revival of the last head of the beast of Rev 17:10; and soon after is joined by Ten kings or kingdoms of Europe as they see the threat to their existence rising and become of one mind with the Beast. Remember, the Beast is the Beast empowered by Satan and will be joined by the Ten kings to face their common threat, and by his side will be the Beast with two horns like a lamb, also resurrected by Satan with power and miracles to support the beast of fury and cause the world to stand in awe and wonder once again as men seek physical salvation from their longtime enemy! And as mentioned before, the current beast with two horns will fall, and rise with a fierce and powerful countenance to cause all who follow and serve Babylon to wonder after the Beast. Dear Brethren, these things are coming, take note, the beast and the false prophet will seem like saviors of the West and the world against the barbarians of pagan roots, and holding at bay Gog of Magog, protecting the Christian(Babylon) world; but Gog and the hordes will not buy into it.
The dynamics of these present end of days will demand these events to occur and take place just as God has determined. And unless one is watching and praying brethren, that one will be caught unawares and be like the foolish and stupid five virgins in Matth 25.
As for Ephraim and Manasseh they are no more, the routing has started and demise begun as the brothers implode due to various nation wide internal ills as God’s punishment begins to take its toll and its inhabitants have no idea why, giving rise to destruction and invasion on a cataclysmic scale by the Beast who is now awake and empowered.
The invasion of the ME is a certainty brethren, as we begin to clearly see the outcome of all these events leading to God’s end time prophetic Word. The Beast Must, MUST RISE! And rise out of the Submerged Chaos (bottomless pit) it will, Rev 17:8-10, and this last head will emerge with power, Rev 17: ! So says the WORD of GOD.
And again brethren, seeing the times we have entered and were expecting, I want to encourage us that we have our fellowship in and with Jesus Christ our Lord and savior and to stir up the fire in the belly for our common Faith and regain our first love, and that all to be alert and aware, watching and praying for one another. Again I remind us, be aware, today this world is full of the world’s false christian preachers; The Sabbath and God’s Holy days are our sign and link that we are God’s people, His called out Elect, converted and repentant for salvation to serve in His Kingdom, as God’s Holy days reveal. And that the Lord is our God and creator of all things.
It is now past one minute to mid night and the wars and rumours of wars are in full swing, the Hordes and the shadow of the Beast have already engaged to a degree; In Ukraine, Yemen, north Africa, its about to explode toward end time events, coupled with the multitudes pushing into the EU and tribes of Israel, causing so much instability and danger throughout to cause chaos and destruction and give excuse for the rising of the powers of the beast and at the same time the demise of Israel; governing authorities in Israel have already begun the attack on Christians in favour of pagans.
Again I repeat, all roads lead to Romulus! There is a convergence happening, a convergence of events, faiths and ideologies; the Scarlet Women, mystery Babylon riding the Beast, the Beast beginning to growl, wars, Abominations, Israel’s punishment, the ME, Gog and the hordes, earthquakes rising, famines rising, social unrest rising, anti-GOD/anti-christian fever building up, diseases ready to explode and break out, financial/economic collapse, breakdown of law and order because of fear etc, all will lead to the world seeking answers and solution to the worlds ills; thus RISE the BEASTs of Rev. It’s now a few months after the FOT and into 2018 and we see more clearly of things to come and its pace. To repeat again, there will rise a powerful man of sin and he will open his mouth and speak and do wonders and will guide the Beast of power. watch the ME brethren, for it is the focus of all arrows as the horsemen ride into oblivion and the dark world of Satan’s wrath. Watch! For quickly and speedily the Word of prophesy shall find root in Europe and the ME, as thunder and lightning and of Earth shaking events, to cause the Earth to real back and forth, cause men’s hearts to melt with fear and trembling, and call out for deliverance to dark powers behind the scenes; and by the end of the year 2018 the Beast shall be, and in early 2019 shall bring two enemies together in the ME with a covenant of peace for seven years. And because of the times and season incased in darkness and chains, and the dungeons filled with men, only the wise will understand these times, that is the true children of God who have not departed from the faith once delivered
Again a Reminder, Russia (The Medes) will not directly attack Manasseh, but the kingdom of the Beast when the time is right. As the Hordes shadow threatens, the Beast will turns on the House of Israel. Majour political and military dynamics and upheavals are occurring to bring this about. The dark Prince and princes of Manasseh and his forces have no small part to play in all this. As I have mentioned before the dark prince past will not give up its power, it will be transferred. For rebellion, sin and abominations together with witchcraft by Israel is behind the demise of Israel as in the days of old. God’s Word WILL Stand brethren.
Keep watching and praying for one another in the faith once delivered and in the love of GOD and HIS Christ. Brethren, as always I express my love for you God’s people, as our supreme loving God expects us to love and show that love in prayers and thanksgiving for one another.
