Ezekiel 5:17
"So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee; and I will bring the sword upon thee. I the LORD have spoken it."
For several years now there have been these stories the news reports on from time to time of animals being unleashed on small towns to attack
the city's residents. Most of these stories with which I am familiar have been involving turkeys. The turkeys come in in great numbers and can make going out a fearful thing. They attack with much ferocity, though they are ultimately harmless. Citizens have decided to extinguish the threat by blowing the rebellious birds to nothing but a pile of feathers. It is as if the turkeys have communicated their plots to one another and they become determined to ruin the lives of the people of that village.
If it were an isolated occurrence, it would not be much cause for concern. If it happened with much greater frequency than it does now then I'm sure many more people would be familiar with the story than there are now. But it has occurred at such a frequency that I took notice and I have for some time now thought there was a spiritual context to this. What almost makes it astonishing is that this happens a lot of time in late Summer, early Autumn, not more than a couple months removed from the great day of turkey persecution, Thanksgiving Day, a day the turkeys do not give thanks on, and if they do, they're thanking God they weren't captured and eaten like so many of their friends. It's as if the turkeys are an organized party of birds expressing displeasure before the townspeople at the reckless and destructive way in which we
kill them.
I'm not arguing that turkeys are sentient beings or that they feel some depth of pain or grief from our holiday season but that nevertheless there is still a spiritual dimension to what has been taking place.
I came across the verse quoted at the top just a few days ago on a site that has a section on Christianity. I was convinced from the moment I read it that it confirmed my suspicions that the birds are merely acting in accordance with God's overall plan. The turkey invasions clearly don't fit the prophecy well enough for this to be considered a fulfillment. The turkeys don't seem to be bereaving anyone, not that we know of, at least, but they could foreseeably cause a panic to someone simply trying to get in their car to go to work or go out to the tool shop. I would welcome the opportunity to encounter these wonderful birds, I had a pet turkey at one point, and only a truly mad turkey would be hellbent on destruction and death. They are simply harmless, peace-loving avians. I liked to go with my dad out to a lake where plenty of ducks and geese could always be found and I fed them what was a very popular snack for kids at the time called Dunkaroos. One goose did get a little snappy with me and I fled away from it because it was a big one and meant business. But a turkey? I can't imagine one truly seeking my harm. And if it were a constant threat I faced on a daily basis, I imagine that I might be bereaved fairly quickly.
I bring this to your awareness because I believe that this is a sign from God. God warned His people that as wickedness grew so great in the land that He would pass very strict judgments against His people who continually defied Him to His face. I imagine the turkeys don't present quite the threat that this prophecy requires but it is certainly a foreshadowing of what to expect in those days. I also suspect that God's
people who are truly walking in obedience to Him are going to be afforded immunity from these slaughters. Might we face, in the wilderness, for instance, maulings by mountain lions, bears, moose, and other animals? In the cities will we be the target of aerial attacks from birds (my dad was crapped on the head once), attacks from stray wolves and other wandering creatures? The world might be but again, I suspect that
those who are truly following the Lord will be afforded immunity from these attacks and many will be called to prophesy of the judgments the wicked will face at the hands of wild animals.
The Lord is making Himself known in ways that no one could have ever dreamed of. His evidences and proofs are all before us and many even in our own faith pass them by, treating them as too insignificant for a comment or as laughable to suggest. Let me ask you: Why have the pastors went on their merry way making sense of epistles or spouting platitudes on whatever the cause of the day is? They are missing the entire
word of God to His people today. They are straining gnats but swallowing whole camels so that they can continue their long standing tradition of squeezing the breath out of prophetic life. It is under this administration that the wars and the persecutions and inquisitions took place that the new atheist inquisitors thank you again and again for. They don't speak the word of God because they are simply blind guides to busy making arguments for why the ditch is such a hospitable place to fall into. Like I have said, the prophetic will be restored and these messages, and greater, and more will be preached. Visions greater than mine, prophesyings greater than mine are to come to pass and the pastoral will be put back in its place as fourth-tier ministry, always subject to the mouths of the prophets. Kings bow to prophets, now let the pastors learn their place and take a knee as well.

Liberty and the Articles of Abomination
Liberty and the Articles of Abominations
There are some, as we have seen in my postings, that God has called to a closer communion with himself than others. Are you as close to God as Jeremiah? Obviously in nearly every case the answer would be no. But because you do not have the strong calling on your life that he had, then it is unnecessary for you to be that close to Him. So, there are some individuals who He will call to that closeness, but for most He will not.
I am someone who has been called to be closer to God than most of you out there reading this, though I trust that if any one person is truly paying attention to what I have been saying, that you are likely an exception. Because of this, I lack the liberty that some of you hold to. The prophets are given unique commandments which are not meant to be asked of the average person. Isaiah was called to expose himself for a
period of nearly two years. Jeremiah was called to celibacy. Moses was called to part the Red Sea. Elijah was caught up in a whirlwind or chariot of fire. So what is asked of the prophets is a lot deeper than what is taught on a basic level in the churches. And though I am not a prophet, though I may be called as one, I similarly lack the liberty that many Christians have. I am greatly perplexed as to this question.
I see on a nearly daily basis how Christians exerise their liberty and it astonishes me. First, because I do not share in this liberty. And second, because I have a deeper understanding of it than they do and so I am not sure why they feel compelled to exercise this privilege. God has indeed given us His law and expects us to obey it, but Christians have plenty of good intellectual excuses (and that is all they are) as to why they don't have to follow one law or another. All it amounts to is they are stupid and as long as they are stupid then they don't have to do anything. The same way someone who has Down syndrome would be provided for by the government and would lack criminal responsibility to a high degree. Yeshua taught a parable about two servants, one who knew his responsibility and didn't meet it, and the other servant who (apparently because he had just started the job) wasn't sure what was expected of him. The first servant was beat more harshly than the second. So it is a biblical idea that where someone is lacking knowledge on a subject then they are not as culpable as the person who knew and did not do it. I am not calling you stupid because I hate you, but it may be because of the fact that you are stupid that you will be saved in the end.
There is a good one: Pork, that I am handling separately. When God placed it on my heart to give up pork, I wasn't sure why or if it could be proven biblically. I hadn't formed an opinion one way or another. I had been told for much of my Christian life to "call not thou common" "what God hath cleansed" but God had never spoken to me personally on the issue. But I knew that if this was from the Lord, He would be prepared to
show me where it says that in the Bible. If it was true that Christians are not at liberty to eat pork then it could easily be deduced from the Scriptures. God was indeed prepared to show me in His word why it is that Christians are not to eat pork. He showed me and then I fought and won the battle to give it up. If you are prepared to search for yourself you will see that I have not lied to you.
I have made note previously on liberty as God instituted it. I claimed it was the only liberty which was sustainable and the only liberty worth having. This is merely an example to show that I am indeed perplexed as to how the Christians are entitled to such great liberty that I am well aware God did not give them. They are right in the sense that we live in liberty and in grace, but their philosophy is wrong as to what it implies. As surely as I live, I have seen this liberty, I have seen Christians exercising it in practice, and it is distasteful, abominable and something which I want no part in.
The Articles of Abominations
I.
There are some at one church that I am very familiar with, perhaps even a couple men from the church will see this at some point, but those some will explain with eloquence why I should eat pork like the rest of them, how my theology is mistaken and that I should defile myself even as they defile themselves, with pleasure and lust for more defilement. It is their belief system which is mistaken though. A man I know said
it this way: "'Man cannot live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.' The Greek here for word is 'rhema' which is the spoken word of God, as in the sense if God were to give you a commandment on something, that word that speaks to you. If you tell me I am not supposed to be doing what God clearly told me to do, that is the spirit of antichrist." I whole-heartedly agree with his assessments. When one of these from this congregation tell me to go against the rhema of God in my life they are preaching an abomination.
This is how the mes got started to begin with. The serpent came and said, "Hath God really said..." When I hear "Christians" coming to me and asking "Hath God really said" I got a little irked because it shows me they are under the power of the devil.
II. The week I left that church, I was deeply troubled by the abomination standing in the holy place that I had witnessed that Wednesday night. At the prayer service a young woman was praying before the church, named Kayla, and she prayed, in anticipation of the upcoming missions trip to Israel that God can allow the Jews to se that they do not have to obey the 613 laws of the Torah. I was very receptive to everything that
had been said up until that point, but when I saw it for the fraud it was, my spirit shut down and I went outside, where I spent most of the rest of the service in total shock. I was trembling for much of the next 3-4 hours as I couldn't believe what had taken place. This church has taken it upon themselves to go to Israel under the pretense of saving Jews, or for what I don't know, maybe they are in search of an authentic filafel, and it was this night I realized the message they would preach. I must warn them however, which I will not do because sometimes stupid people are unwilling to learn, that this is not a message to preach in Israel, of all places, as it will harm the conscience's of the Jews, who are a very pesky bunch and difficult to evangelize to, and my suspicion is that it will do much more harm than good, if they preach that message I suspect they have preached elsewhere. My soul was hurt not for the ignorant in that church which have not taken heed to the word of God, but for the souls they will lead to their damnation because of the lies they preach. This was the abomination in the temple.
Thursday
III. The abomination which I witnessed next: On this Thursday night, which I was brought to the church under fradulent pretenses and lies, thanks to the abominable and atrocious leadership of this church, who will not be excused in my book, someone (hopefully soon to be fired to live a life of misery if they in fact work at the church) had bought pizza for those in attendance. The pizza was of three varieties: pepperoni, ham, and sausage. Paul, who they swear by and insist is a true apostle said to not eat meats insofar as it hurt the conscience of other brethren.
As an aside, if a friend and I go to Cici's Pizza, a restaurant that I really like, and my friend wants to eat sausage or pepperoni, by all means they should. It doesn't bother me at all. But if a friend or family were to call and invite me to have pizza at their house with a few others, and that they would have pepperoni and sausage pizza, then I would politely ask that they order hamburger pizza as well. I am not being rude, I am just asking them to obey their own Bible, which they claim to adore so much since my conscience would be offended. Pizza is my favorite food and if someone were to be eating pepperoni in front of me and make no effort to see that I eat as well (which I will not eat their pepperoni because of the rhema) then that would be hurtful. Any decent person would accommodate me in my convictions and say "Sure, we'd love to have you, and we will order hamburger as well!" But if they did not accommodate me in this request, I would chalk them up to being agents of Satan who are not decent, but are as wicked as they come.
When this church has brought this pizza into the house of the Lord then they have acted as agents of Satan. Wouldn't it have been enough to order a few each of pepperoni and sausage, and for those who may not eat pork order cheese or hamburger? I think this is very reasonable and is in line with all of Scriptures. But to bring a total of six pizzas all covered in pork, it is exposed to me this was not of stupidity, or ignorance, that the abomination was brought inot the house of the Lord, but it was intentional, insidious, and Satanic. Then to eat it in front of me, and this same young woman Kayla wh prays against the laws of God, to God's face that His law is irrelevant, proceeds to explain to me why I should defile myself because she is defiling herself and everyone else is doing it and it isn't so bad to defile yourself if you try it just once.
And this is all in the temple, that I must declare once and for all is not a temple at all but some house of whoredoms and maybe worse.

This is the disputation against abominations and against that insidious liberty that Christians exercise as an excuse to defile themselves and act as stupid fools doing whatever it is they please themselves to do.
Many Christians Roasting in the Fires of Hell
Let me start off by reminding those of you who read one of my latest message that I don't believe in a place of eternal torment. A common is why would God not send evil people to Hell, furthering the dichotomic view that the good go to Heaven and the evil go to Hell. The answer is because there is no Hell to send them too. The place of damnation is the place of final rest, no more no less. If you are counted among the goats on the left then you will be daqmned and it will be lights out for you. Your final state will be as that of compost, thus fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah that the worm would not die. You will be in the ground and there will be no coming back.
But let's pretend for a moment that there is a Hell. It is completely apparent to anyone who has been paying attention for sometime that Christians are so gung-ho and chipper about reminding people that they are going to burn in Hell when they die. Especially when you don't accept their views on doctrine or perhaps on politics and who to vote for. So let me ask the Christians? How many of the people that you share pews and churches with on Sunday are going to be burning there? My suspicion is most of them are going to be damned. Your churches are filled with adulterers, fornicators, liars, slanderers, backbiters, and backsliders and you all forget about them don't you. I haven't been unfair in my generalization. When the medical professor points out that between you and the two people sitting next to you, between one two of them will not complete medical school, he isn't being unfair, however unpleasant the fact may be, but he is providing a warning by pointing out the truth. And I am not being unfair either, I am pointing out the fact that the church is not the first place to look for a message on the virtue of morality, although it could make a good defense of why you shouldn't live an immoral life since so many damnable people with every sort of life problem are found there.
Again, how many people that you share a pew with on Sunday are among the damned? Until you call them out, no one will take you seriously, not even other Christians, except maybe for the bigots.
As I said in another message that we as Christians can be defined as being followers of the Way, the Truth, and the Life. It is disappointing to see how Christians, who are commanded to not bear false witness, can so believably assure you of something that is false and thereby lead you to believe a lie. They will lie right to your face whenever it is convenient, and I can tell many of them have had a lot of practice because they do it very well, that is, they are very believable.
Or how about the part about when they offer their steps to salvation or some other stupid observation on life. They have a lot of ways, they speak eloquently of their ways and their theories but very little of God's way. How Sunday after Sunday, endless messages are preached on Paul's very inconsequential epistles while very little reading of the words of Christ in the Gospels is done. I suspect it is because very few men actually know the true Way and know how that is reached.
Then the life which they offer is every bit of worldly satisfaction and privilege, the cheese puffs and twinkies, of the flesh which has made them fat, and of the spirit which has made them abominable. On one forum they criticized James David Manning who was speaking about the false ministry of a very well known TBN preacher. They said he was jealous of this "minister"'s wealth. We are not concerned with your wealth, we
who are speaking on the prophetic. It means nothing to us but a thing which is transferred from one hand to another, that purchases a thing which we might enjoy but then it is only fleeting. At some point in time it will be useless for much else other than as kindling which we may provide warmth to ourselves by lighting it aflame. Peter said "Silver and good have I none but such as I have I give thee," and he also rebuked the man who tried to purchase his anointing. This cannot be purchased and it cannot be sold. Karl Marx's mother said that Karl should spend more time accumulating wealth rather than writing about it. But for the true ministers, they are concerned neither with economic theory nor amassing a fortune. What God sees fit to provide us, we believe is that which we are entitled to or what we are worth, but in any case which He
has seen fit to provide. With that we should spend wisely and be a cheerful giver in what has been entrusted to our care. We thank God endlessly for that which He has seen fit to provide as we recognize we are all sinners of the worst variety and that we are no more entitled to what we have then the African overseas is entitled to it, (yet he lives without and you live with it, when there is not rhyme or reason as to why you do and he doesn't).
To conclude, I want to remind you that I do not teach of an eternal hellfire because, try as I might, I couldn't find any verses that taught that. But if there is, I trust God in His great might of wisdom and righteousness that many Christians are going to have a great number of seats reserved first for them, and secondly, for the people of the world. Theirs is a first-class ticket and their wealth and cheese puffs amount to nothing in my book because at the final disposition they will be condemned.
