Today, the entire world observes an historical event that changed the course of human history. Even the Stock Market is closed in observance of the day! And in consideration of the significance of the events leading up to the death and resurrection of one Jewish man 2,000 years ago, it is curious to note that a violation of the Torah appears to have taken place at the hands of this very same Jew which would, according to Torah scholars, invalidate His legitimacy to be the Jewish Messiah! Torah requires that every Jewish home in preparation for Passover bring a lamb into its confines and inspect it for four days, looking for blemishes. The Passover lamb must be perfect--no flaws. This corresponds to the four separate interrogations given to Yeshua Jesus culminating in Pontius Pilate's pronouncement of "I find no fault in this Man!" He was absolutely flawless according to the Law. At the time of the Passover Seder, just as it was at the original event in the day of Moses, the lamb is killed. As ordained by God through the prophet, the blood of the slain Passover lamb was applied over the doorposts and lintel of each home for the purpose of deliverance from impending death. Then, the lamb wasprepared and consumedat the Seder meal. And for the next 1,500 years, this Law was observed .... That is, until the ultimate Passover Seder (the Last Supper) would reveal the long-awaited Messiah of Israel. What happened at that Last Supper changed the Law for all time!
"And the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the passover
was to be killed, His disciples said to Him:Where shall we kill the Passover?
He sent two of them saying, 'Go into the city and there you will meet a man
carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him ... He will show you a larger upper room
furnished and prepared ..." ~ Mark 14:12-15
Yeshua had already prepared the meal; and later that night when His disciples consumedthe Passover, the Torah requirement was satisfied because Jesus was the perfect
Passover Lamb. It was Jesus Himself Who was consumed because John the Baptist has already revealed him as"The Lamb of God Who takes away the sins of the world." At that fateful Seder meal, there was no need to prepare a separate traditional Passoveras prescribed by Law because Jesus Christpresented Himself as the sinless Lamb of God to be consumed. It was the seal of the wedding Ketubah of His New Covenant for His Bride. Today, we call it "Eucharistic Communion." And though it might appear to the blind eyes of observant Jews and the doubting hearts of unwilling skeptics that Jesus Christ could NOT be the Messiah because He violated the Torah by not preparing a substitute, when the spotlight of the Holy Spirit is illuminated, the evidence--like the Passover Lamb--is flawless and Torah was fulfilled. It is finished!
RELIGION and POLITICS--Those Taboo subjects! Both take donations to finance their operations. Both make covenant with the Government to obtain tax-free status. Both exercise positions of power over people. And both are governed by the same evil spirit! Religion and Politics are by-products of the Doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which is a Spirit of Antichrist.This is the same spirit that will rule the world as the ultimate politician and religious leader at the end of the age. This spirit of politics and religion is evident in the Biblical account when Israel rejected God as its King and demanded an earthly leader like everyone else:
"So all the elders of Israel gathered together and said to the prophet Samuel:
“You are old, and your sons do not follow your ways; now appoint a KING to lead us, such as all the other nations have. But when they said, Give us a king to lead us, this displeased Samuel. So he prayed to the Lord.And the Lord told him:
Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected ME as their King.As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you.Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will claim as HIS rights." ~ 1st Samuel 8
The first king of Israel was Saul--a good man who, at first, loved God and served Israel. But an evil spirit came upon him (1st Samuel 16:14)and caused mental instability, fear, jealousy and paranoia. He was obsessed with killing his son-in-law, David, and eventually committed suicide. When David became King, an evil spirit of adultery and murder came upon him and brought a curse to his family. When Solomon became king, he was embued with Godly wisdom; but an evil spirit of idolatry and greed led him down the path to destruction.
The current Presidential Campaign is rife with jealousy, fear, paranoia, anger, hostility and aggression. Candidates who initially appeared competent, professional, desiring to make positive changes, began to exhibit irrational behaviors. As the tension escalated, the behavior worsened, revealing the same evil spirit of those who millennia ago desired to be King.
Alongside all of this political degradation, the lust for power and authority is manifesting in the Church! The same political spirit has led many of its leaders to irrational behaviors including worldly performance; drama, dance and theatrical entertainment;strobe-light, smoke-filled concerts; celebrity speakers and performers; revenue-generating commercialism; competition for members as displayed by the International Hillsong Church. "By their fruits you shall know them." A more publicized example of an infecting spirit of politics can be seen in this video from a Bethel Church service, depicting a home-grown invention called the Fire Tunnel. Bethel, located in Redding, CA began as a traditional Assembly of God congregation in 1954. But a decade ago, its leadership broke ties with the denomination and instituted its own hierarchy. Soon, bizarre doctrines and behaviors began to manifest as the evil spirit of antichrist infected the ministry and manifested at what can only be described as strange fire:
EVIL SPIRITS IN THE SANCTUARY
Power corrupts absolutely! Whether it's a campaign for political office or the ambitious Nicolaitan ascent up the ladder of the Corporate church, the Spirit of Antichrist (A.W. Tozer) controls, corrupts and influences those who submit themselves to this spirit of rebellion against the authority of the KING of KINGS!
An uncertain trumpet is blowing through the American Christian Church. Its sound proclaims the heralding of a New Kingdom Order that stands in opposition to millennia of tradition, protocol and predictablilty. A major component of this World Order Kingdom is the emergence of the 7 Mountains Mandate--the belief that we are called to infiltrate and influence the 7 elements of our culture: Religion, Family, Education, Government, Media, Arts and Entertainment and Business. This movement is the brainchild of Bill Bright and Loren Cunningham who announced back in 1975 that in order to truly transform any nation with the Gospel, these 7 elements must be infiltrated. Since it was first introduced, the concept has been embraced by numerous well-known ministries. But it is Deception that propels this mandate forward, because it clearly conflicts what Jesus told His disciples:
"Jesus said, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews;
but my kingdom not from hence." ~ John 18:36
I wonder which part of "My Kingdom is not of this world" the contemporary celebrity Church does not understand? There isindeed strange fire in the sanctuary, and it could be the warning Yeshua prophesied regarding end times deception:
For there shall arise false Christs, false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders so that, if possible, the very elect will be deceived." ~ Matt 24:24
While there are many moving parts to this New Kingdom order, two particular elements stand out within the 7 Mountain Mandate:
ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK - Another component to the "Mandate" is the priesthood known as the Order of Melchizedek. Introduced by Bob Jones in the 1980's, it was originally intended to be the next generation of the 5-fold Ministry. It seems to have evolved into something much bigger. One of its contemporary leaders is Dr. Francis Myles, a self-proclaimed "change agent" for the Kingdom. Partnership with his ministry promises blessings that only his partners can earn. Again, this is idolatry: The Benefits of Partnership
You become a Partaker of the GRACE that God has placed upon the life of Dr. Myles
All the "lost souls" that get saved at his crusades/conferences will be credited to your heavenly account!
God will give you a deeper understanding of the Order of Melchizedek
FALSE PROPHET? Dr. Myles maintains in the following interview with Sid Roth that he received a prophetic vision (no validation) from God prior to the 2008 electionin which he saw Barack Obama speaking in tongues; and that in the 2nd term of his presidency, Obama will rise up and become a voice for God to his liberal friends:
The problem
with the Mechizedekian principles is their blatant antithesis to the Scriptural
mandate to die to self daily and submit to the dominion of God:
"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me:
and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by trust in the Son of God,
who loved me, and gave himself for me." ~ Galatians 2:20
"And he said to all, If any will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow me." ~ Luke 9:23
We would do well to heed the voices of of Godly leadership from the past as their words cry out from the grave for repentance and Teshuvah -- a turning from these deceptions:
"The denying of self is the repudiating of one's own ideas. And the
only condition for following the footsteps of Jesus is the denying of self.
These are the footsteps of Christ that lead us to the Kingdom.
Believing puts us in the Church; following the footsteps of Jesus
puts us in the Kingdom."~ Watchman Nee, 1934
"Whenever the Church has joined hands with the State[7 Mountains?],
it has invariably retro-graded in spirituality and effectiveness."
~ Dwight L. Moody, 1862
"What is the chief distinction of the Kingdom? It is the glory of Heaven.
The true Heavenly-mindedness of all graces is humility. The least in

On the Eve of June 30, 2015, the Western Hemisphere of Earth is likely to experience a celestial phenomenon not seen in over 2,000 years.

"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring."
67 years ago today, Modern Day Israel was born. And for 3
decades, I was taught this was God's prophetic plan to return the Jews to their
homeland. But was it? Indeed it fulfills prophecy--but God said the
"Kingdom of Israel would never exist again (2nd Kings 17). So, if this is
God's plan, why isn't it called the State of Judah? And why does God allow
idols in the land contrary to Torah? And why is "Israel" not
mentioned in the Book of Revelation? No, the establishment of the modern State
of Israel is the brainchild of evil men whose purpose is to introduce their
"christ" very shortly to the world stage. Modern Day Israel is the prophetic warning of Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 - "Let everyone who has an ear to hear, listen to what the Spirit of the Lord is saying ..." The research of author Ken Schortgen is compelling.

As a formerRebbetzin and radio voice for the Messianic Jewish movement, I am compelled to comment on the latest tool in this Great Deception--The Tree of Life Messianic Bible (TLV). Created by the Messianic Jewish Family Bible (MJFB) Society--an organization which has made covenant with the Federal Government for tax advantages--the new TLV Bible poses troublesome challenges to the Gospel of the Kingdom as taught by Messiah Yeshua. The MJFB posts confusing and biased claims on their website:
There is an arrogant tone in these and other statements which suggests that non-Jewish Believers are somehow not on equal par with Jewish Believers. And that today, 2000 years after the Gospel was given, these modern-day Diaspora Jews are somehow the "keepers of the Word" and exclusively in charge of spreading the Gospel to the four corners of the globe. They seem to have forgotten that Scripture confirms that the Jew who accepts Yeshua as Messiah is also "grafted-in" to the Good Olive Tree. What happened to the "One New Man--all One in Yeshua?" In Christ there IS no Jew or Gentile, no circumcised or uncircumcised! (Galatians 3:28 and Colossians 3:11)
The TLV Gospel of John depicts an artist's interpretation of "The Word becoming Flesh" as a man morphing out from a Torah Scroll. This, in my opinion, is a dangerous subliminal. The Gospel of John from which this depiction is taken, makes quite clear that the Word of God is a Person--not a book and certainly not a Torah scroll. This is one of many subliminals inserted ino the TLV Bible to purposely influence the reader to believe that somehow God is Jewish and this is the preferred way of belief. Rabbi Paul made it clear who Yeshua is and who We are in HIM:
"For he himself (Yeshua) is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace,and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility." ~ Ephesians 2:14-16

TIME FOR A "SELAH!" ... Take a look at the frenzy, the fear and the misplaced focus that is being generated over the prophesied Blood Moonsof 2014-2015 and the Mystery of the Shemitah. Celebrity preachers, prophets, pastors and pulpit dwellers are showcasing the phenomena on television; DVDs; book sales; and YouTube videos. Even Fox News has interviewed Celeb Pastors about these forthcoming astronomical events. Somehow, I can't believe "That's what Jesus would do."
This media frenzy reminds me of the 1999 Y2K flurry when church leaders stirred up the people that the world would come to a standstill at midnight, New Year's Eve. They wrote books; made the talk-show circuits; visited hundreds of pulpits and profited $millions. And the people--out of fear, not faith--stockpiled food and water; built fortresses; spent money they didn't have; and ignited the "prepping movement." But they either forgot or ignored that no where in the New Covenant -- (you know, the one that governs our day) -- did Jesus tell us to do these things. To the contrary, He said"Take no thought for tomorrow..." And Y2K turned out to be a prophetic boondoggle. I challenge you to take a few minutes to review an article by another Blogger, the "Olivet Journal," with which my Spirit agrees. (Click: http://olivetjournal.com/mark-biltz-a-false-prophet-of-the-blood-moon/)
I suspect the Blood Moons will run their course, manifest, and the frenzy will dissipate because the dates touted by these Pastor Celebs follow the Talmudic Babyloniancalendar--not the Levitical calendar God gave to Moses. It's impossible to really know the dates of the feasts today because they've been altered so many times. Perhaps that's what Jesus meant when He said, "No man knows the day or hour." That's how I see it. Shalom

T’SHUVAH- Days of Turning and Repentance - Elul
Beginning August 7th – Ending
Sundown, Sept 13th 2013
The Month of Elul on the Jewish calendar introduces a 40-day period of Repentance and Return to the Lord called Teshuvah'
“Come,
my people, enter your chambers and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it
were, for a little while, until the tribulation is past. For the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the
Earth for their iniquities." ~ Isaiah 26:20-21
Janet McBride Teaches Teshuvah, the Season of Return
"When the Day of Pentecost had fully come ... Suddenly a sound as of a mighty rushing wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what appeared astongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke with other tongues." ~ Acts 2:2-3
So
what does that mean? What does it mean when a day is "fully come?"
What does it mean to be "filled" with the Holy Spirit? Is this the first time tongues manifested on the
Earth? Does the ancient Feast of Shavuot and the Hebrew language of Scripture give us clues to these and other mysteries surrounding the Day of Pentecost? These and other insights are discussed in the newest 30-minute Hebraic video teaching:
We are approaching the Feast of Pentecost (evening of May 14th). The word Pentecost is a Greek derivative meaning the 50th Day. The Church refers to Pentecost as its "Birthday," but that is a poor rendering of the significance of this Feast. Pentecost is really the anniversary of the day that Yashua, our Messiah, betrothed Himself to His Bride! Since the Resurrection Event (Firstfruits), there are intervening days called "Counting the Omer." These days are numbered right up to the Day of Pentecost (Feast of Shavuot) for a reason. The Psalmist wrote that we should "number our days" and the prophet Daniel identified Yashua as "The Wonderful Numberer."* Here is a video teaching I present on "Counting the Omer" - our journey to the Feast of Pentecost:
"Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." ~ Psalm 90:12
* "Then I heard a holy one speaking and another holy one said unto Palmoni Kadosh (the Wonderful Numberer) which spake "How Long shall the vision be..." ~ Daniel 8:13
Throughout the pages of Scripture, you see dates, times, seasons, months and days mentioned specifically. But most modern-day Bible students haven't a clue how to discern these occasions. Why? Because there are actually two separate calendersin operation from Genesis to Revelation and both were instituted by God for the purpose of teaching his disciples when the Messiah will visit the Earth.
In this short video teaching, you will learn the two Biblical calendars; when God instituted them; why they are important today; and what are the Hebrew idioms relating to these "Appointed Times."
"But of the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write unto you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night."
The story of Pesach (Passover) is rich with Hebraic undertones and ancient idioms. And because of this, there has been much confusion surrounding the teaching of this glorious feast. I want to take just one significant controversy that has perplexed the Christian Church for centuries and bring clarity to your understanding: "How could Messiah die on Friday; be raised up on Sunday; and still fulfill the prophecy of 3 days and 3 nights in the grave?" In this two-part video teaching, I hope to help solve the mystery and inspire the Joy of the Season... THE PASSOVER MYSTERY - PART 1 THE PASSOVER MYSTERY - PART 2
During this sacred season, I want to share with you a recording in which I narrate excerpts from Psalms 98, 99 and 108. My favorite musicians, Secret Garden, provide background worship and I've added graphics which convey the spirit of these passages to take you to your own secret garden of prayer and worship. The Messiah Bridegroom Yashua paid the "Bride Price" during the Passover season so that one day, He will return to take His Bride to the wedding chamber (chuppah) which is being prepared even now.
"Exalt the Lord your God and worship at His Holy Hill;
THE FESTIVAL - At sundown on Saturday, February 23, 2013, Jews and Messianics around the world will celebrate the Feast of Purim. Traditional celebrations include the reading of the Megillah (Book of Esther); the rattling of Groggers (noisemakers); the wearing of masks and indulging in sweet Hamantaschen.Mardi Gras adapted many of its traditions from Purim. But does this festive precursor to Passover and Easter have any relevance beyond the obvious party celebrations? Indeed it does. Purim is now the bridge between the old and the new Kingly Scepter of Power; and for the Virtuous Woman, it signals in the Hebrew language her calling and destiny: Chay'll--the powerful, wealthy, force to be reckoned with!
QUEEN ESTHER- The Festival of Purim comes from the Book of Esther (Hadassah) as a celebration of God's deliverance of Jews from an anti-Semitic politician named Hamen. Hadassah gained favor from her King when she dared to approach the throne "unsummoned." Persian Law demanded that if the King did not extend his Scepter toward her or anyone approaching the throne without being summoned, they would be executed. But Hadassah's trust in God was greater than her fear of man. And through God's favor, the King's Scepter was extended and he offered her up to half his Kingdom. In the end, the Nation of Israel was saved.
TODAY'S SCEPTER for the SPIRITUAL WOMAN - So how does the blessing of Purim relate to the virtuous woman who trusts in the Heavenly King for her salvation and provision? The new kingly scepter is the Scepter of His Righteousness(Hebrews 1:6-8) This scepter represents her purpose, her success, her destiny. Here's how the Scriptures reveal Purimfor the Biblical Model of the Virtuous Woman:
