BIBLIOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
ABSTRACT: Many articles in recent months have indicated that Satan is scheduled to be bound and cast into the Bottomless Pit on or about Passover 2003. It has also been indicated that currently Satan is winning the battle and that in the sight of Yahweh, the Body of Believers have never been more apostate and in error than they are today.
Reference has also been made to the need for a global Strategic Plan which all believers can adopt and, led by the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh, can apply themselves to as led. Since early November 2001, Yahweh has led the writer into an extremely detailed strategic analysis process using tools and methodologies that the writer has learned and developed, led by the Spirit of Yahweh, over several decades as a management consultant and strategist. This analysis has evaluated in-depth the strategic factors for success in marriage in the faith, the factors for a successful covenant based corporate organization, including ministry, business or government, the headlines of a global strategic plan for the Kingdom of Yahweh on earth and most recently at strategic Critical SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threat) analysis of the Body of Believers on earth today together with an analysis of Critical Doctrinal Factors. This analysis provides the overall global context for the detailed strategic analysis that has been undertaken and which will, Yahweh willing, be reported in sequels to this article.
This analysis is presented with numerical weights and ratings given by Yahweh together with interpretation of the weights and ratings. From these Yahweh shows in detail the extremely serious condition that the Body of Believers is currently in relative to the short term objective of casting Satan into the Pit as well as relative to the objective of ushering in the reign of anointed believers and the first resurrection.
The critical strengths of the body today relate almost exclusively to technology and resources with no strengths relating to spiritual or scriptural status. Yahweh speaks particularly harshly against ministries which distribute His Word for financial gain and prevent the poor from having access to these teachings. Yahweh also speaks harshly to all those who have been blessed by Him financially but are not giving tithes and offerings as He would have them given. In all factors Yahweh rates the utilization of these strengths by the body as unsatisfactory, 99.9% of the body are utilizing less than 45% of the strengths and maximum utilization is 57%.
The critical weaknesses of the body include complacency, the myth that "Jesus is coming soon", lack of awareness of coming judgment, division, competition, demonization, failure of marriage, false doctrines, heresies, error, ignorance of historical facts and worship of men and traditions and doctrines of men. Complacency and lack of awareness of judgment is rated by Yahweh as 80% of what is critical of the weaknesses and Yahweh states that 99.9% of the body are combatting these weaknesses at a level of less than 25% effectiveness.
The critical opportunities for the body today include effective utilization of technology to collect, collate and publish all truth, led by the Spirit of Yahweh and the use of this truth to break down denominational and other barriers in the body. This requires a global strategic plan to bring the body into unity and recognition of the full complexity of multi-skilling in the body. In particular it is vital for believers to seek the anointing and Yahweh allocates 40% of the relative weight to this factor with 20% to the need for a strategic plan. 1% of effort is allocated to development and publication of the plan, which is currently constrained by limited finances, 99% of effort in terms of finances and manpower will be required for development and deployment of technology and data acquisitions systems to enable all believers to contribute their revelations into a pool which can be made available to all on earth at no charge. Currently 99.9% of the body is operating at less than 24% in terms of exploiting these opportunities and 50% are operating at less than 13%.
The critical threats relate to the fact that Satan's time on earth is running out and he has therefore pulled out "all the stops" to seek to destroy all believers or to at least bring all believers to a point where there is no one in a position to exercise the necessary anointing and authority with the necessary sanctification to send Satan to the Pit. Other threats relate to the extent to which the world system has more to offer in terms of power and money, integrity, spirituality, love, compassion and caring, sexuality, position and recognition - all of which are factors where in terms of the blessings of the covenants believers have with Yahweh, believers should lead the world. Yahweh weights the threat related to Satan's time running out at 90% of what is important and indicates that 99.9% of all believers are 0.02% prepared to counter this threat with the result that almost all will be destroyed. Overall, 99.9% of all believers are prepared at a level of less than 24% to counter all the threats.
Insofar as the overall weaknesses and threats are directly related to doctrinal error, Yahweh has defined seven critical doctrinal factors relating to understanding of who Yahweh is; who Yahshua is and what he accomplished; covenant; torah and judgment; marriage, sex and family; ordinances of the faith, sanctification and deliverance and other factors. Overall, Yahweh indicates that 99.9% of believers understand less than 60% of who He is and less than 40% of who Yahshua is and what Yahshua accomplished. Overall, 99.9% of the body know less than 51% of what is critical to send Satan to the Pit and therefore to survive in this age. A rating of 100% is apparently required amongst a certain number of believers, known only to Yahweh, before Satan can be sent to the Pit! Yahweh indicates that amongst the highest levels of error occur amongst those who have been to any form of formal Bible School, Seminary or the like, in the same way that this was the case in the days of Yahshua. Yahweh indicates that 98% of ALL messages preached or taught today contain at least one item of critical error capable of sending the hearers to hell if they apply it. The balance of the message may be completely sound but the few moments of leaven will counter all the good that is preached or taught.
Yahweh is adamant that there is NO EXCUSE for the extremely poor ratings that prevail at present and that these ratings should be seen in the light of the judgment that is currently coming upon the world and which will manifest much more severely in the days ahead, particularly on the "West" and particularly the United States of America.
There is a critical need for all believers to turn to Yahweh as a matter of extreme urgency and to turn from the very diverse range of errors that are currently paralysing the body and making it almost totally ineffective against Satan on a global scale as evidenced by the epidemic levels of divorce in the body, the failure of evangelism to effectively penetrate large areas of the world, etc.
Yahweh willing a series of articles developing Yahweh's solution to the above situation will be published in the days ahead.

PREAMBLE
This article is the first of a series, which Yahweh willing, will report the findings of an in-depth strategic analysis of the Kingdom of Yahweh on earth, as represented by the current Body of Believers. This analysis is directed at establishing what is required to restored the reign of Yahweh on earth through His anointed one's and also what is required to cast Satan into the Pit on the scheduled date around Passover 2003.
This article analyses the critical strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats and doctrinal factors facing the body in this age and is vital reading for all who are aware of what is currently taking place on earth today and who fear the Day of Judgment and the possibility of losing their salvation such that they burn in the lake of fire and brimstone for eternity.
The extremely low ratings for the vast majority of believers are the principal factor behind the judgment that is now come upon the world and which will manifest much more tangibly in the near future, particularly on the "West" and particularly the United States of America which of all nations has had greatest access to the technology and resources to counter the high levels of error and non-performance reported by Yahweh in this analysis.

PROPHETIC STRATEGIC SWOT ANALYSIS
OF THE BODY OF BELIEVERS WORLDWIDE
(SWOT = Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats)
(Includes Critical Doctrinal Factors)
A number of recent articles have highlighted the extent to which Satan is dominating events in the world and placed this in the context of the seven years of tribulation which commenced at Tabernacles in 1996 leading in to the Great Tribulation which commenced at Tabernacles 2001 when all restraint on Satan was withdrawn when all grace for believers was withdrawn.
Articles which have particularly highlighted these issues include:
1A1.01.08.11 The Evangelism Iceberg in 2001: Strategic Objectives Of The Kingdom Of Yahweh (21 August, 2001)
1A1.01.09.03 Satan Is Winning The Battle Hands Down : What Are YOU Going To Do About It? (14 September 2001)
1A1.01.09.14 Critical Strategic Objectives for the USA and the World (26 September 2001)

1A1.01.10.11 A New Age Has Begun: We Are Called To Reign With The Anointing Of The Set Apart Holy Spirit (21 October 2001)
1A1.01.10.18 Halloween: 31 October 2001: Satan's Great Day: The Great And Terrible Day Of Yahweh's Wrath (31 October 2001)
1A1.01.11.01 Some Critical Principles Required to Understand the Present Spiritual Situation and to Overcome to the End (04 November 2001)
The article, 1A1.01.09.04 "Vital Spiritual Principles Required To Understand What Was NOT Seen In The Attacks On The USA On Tuesday 11 September 2001" (19 September 2001) included a series of graphs and a discussion which explained how the act of disobedience involved in eating the fruit of the "Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil" in Genesis 3 initiated a process through which mankind, created in the likeness and image of Yahweh (Genesis 1:26-27), with massive intellect and knowledge of Good, proceeded to learn all that there was to learn about evil and is still engaged in this process.
That learning process has taken six thousand years through to Tabernacles 1996 in a situation where the rate of descent of mankind into evil and deception is currently accelerating exponentially with more deterioration in four years today than in the first THOUSAND years since creation. This is shown graphically in Figure 1, which is based on Figure 4 in article 1A1.01.09.04.
This figure also illustrates that the final millennium of man's dominion on earth involves the restoration of all Good on earth by those anointed believers who are faithful to Yahweh and
overcome in the current Great Tribulation and who have overcome in previous generations and will be resurrected in the thirty years from Tabernacles 1996.
Revelation 20:1‑6 "1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; 3 and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while. 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Yahshua and for the word of Yahweh, who had not worshipped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with the anointing [of the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh] for a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of Yahweh and of the anointing, and shall reign with Him a thousand years." (NKJ adjusted for correct Names, etc by the writer)
The critical requirement for the turning point that is shown on this graph is that Satan must be bound and cast into the Bottomless Pit for a thousand years.
As explained in a number of recent articles, since man has been given dominion over the earth and since Yahshua, through his sinless life and death regained authority over the forces of evil and commanded mankind to exercise that authority, it is necessary for MEN to take authority over Satan and to bind him and cast him into the Pit.
As has also been explained, since Yahweh is uncompromisingly righteous, the court of heaven cannot sentence Satan to a thousand years in the Pit unless the plaintiffs in the case (those offering up the prayers for Satan's arrest, trial, conviction and sentence) are themselves without sin and not worshipping Satan by following any of his false doctrines, living a life style dictated by Satan's ways in the world, etc. These plaintiff's must also be walking in the power and authority of the anointing that Yahshua purchased for mankind through his sacrifice and death on the tree.
In addition to this, there is a need for a clear strategy for the recovery of all truth on earth in the millennium.
Previous articles have alluded to various requirements and the article on the "Evangelism Iceberg" presented an overview of Yahweh's vision for a global ministry to support believers with information, resources, research and publication facilities, etc at no cost to enable the restoration of truth and the rule of the anointed one's to occur.
Clearly the global turnaround depicted in Figure 1 is of unprecedented magnitude. In worldly terms this magnitude of turnaround is effectively impossible. It will require a MASSIVE anointing of believers with the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh. Those believers will require full revelation of how to operate in that anointing. The turnaround will ALSO require a comprehensive global strategic plan that all believers can subscribe to and, by the leading of the Holy Spirit, participate in as required by Yahweh.
The writers background is management consulting with particular emphasis on strategic information technology and strategy development and implementation using strategic processes given by Yahweh since the 1980's. Since July 2001 the writer has been progressively led by Yahweh to undertake a number of strategic processes relating to the Kingdom of Yahweh on earth.
Most recently, since early November 2001 the writer has been engaged by Yahweh almost full time in Strategic analysis. This analysis has taken place in the wake of the events of 11 September 2001 in the USA (the Twin Towers and Pentagon attacks), the withdrawal of the grace restraining Satan on the Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles, 9 October 2001 (1A1.01.10.03 "The Grace Which Restrained Satan Has Been Removed (2 Thessalonians 2:7)" 12 October 2001) and the consolidation of Satan's position on Halloween (1A1.01.10.18 "Halloween: 31 October 2001: Satan's Great Day: The Great And Terrible Day Of Yahweh's Wrath" 31 October 2001).
The analysis commenced in early November with an in depth analysis to develop the structure of a comprehensive strategic plan for the healing of marriage in the Body of Believers. As this plan unfolded, Yahweh progressively made it clear to the writer that marriage is the HEART of man's existence on earth. Marriage creates the spiritual environment for mankind to operate on the earth and for man to execute the tasks and calling given to him by Yahweh.
As the marriage analysis unfolded, Yahweh gave the writer a strategic outline for the governance and formation of covenant based corporate entities, whether ministries, commercial corporations or government organizations highlighting direct parallels between Yahweh's ideals for marriage and His ideals for corporate life. Finally, Yahweh revealed that our occupation, which should be our calling, is intended to operate WITHIN a framework created by stable, righteous marriages.
From this analysis, Yahweh then took the writer to a more broad based strategic analysis in terms of Yahweh's overall strategic objectives for the millennium and from there to a strategic SWOT Analysis (Critical Strengths, Critical Weaknesses, Critical Opportunities and Critical Threats) coupled with an analysis of Critical Doctrinal Issues.
This analysis then tied back into the strategic plan conceptually presented in the article on "The Evangelism Iceberg" and the strategic analysis that was undertaken at that time toward the establishment of a global corporate ministry to support all believers in seeking all truth, sharing the truths of Yahweh's Kingdom, etc.
The resulting Strategic Framework is abstract, complex and multi-dimensional and still requires considerable work to drive it down to the full levels of detail that are required to provide a comprehensive actionable plan. However, Yahweh has indicated that He considers the analysis now to be at a point where the writer can start to publish the analysis in order that other believers can commence praying into the plan in terms of intercessory support AND in terms of seeking Yahweh to better understand how they fit into His plans for this age and what aspects of the strategic analysis are particularly relevant to them.
The writer has effectively undertaken one high level iteration through all aspects of the strategic context and strategic environment insofar as it has currently been revealed to him. Further iterations will take place as the analysis is documented and as the analysis drills down deeper into the development of multi-dimensional strategic frameworks, execution of gap analyses and, Yahweh willing, in time development of detailed Strategic Action plans which will set out specific actions that can be undertaken by individuals or groups as Yahweh leads.
This article is therefore, Yahweh willing, the first of a series to be published progressively in the days ahead.
OVERVIEW OF ANALYTICAL APPROACH
The analytical approach has been developed by the writer, led by Yahweh, over several decades and incorporates a variety of widely known techniques synthesised into an integrated strategic analysis, design and implementation package of tools, methodology and experience which, to the best of the writer's knowledge, is unequalled, reflecting as it does, years of seeking by the Spirit of Yahweh to solve complex, abstract and intractable business problems.
The tool and methodology names and branding are the intellectual property of James A Robertson and Associates cc (JAR&A) the Management Consultancy Practice of the writer which has been incorporated into End Time Issue Ministries as a ministry to the corporate world and government. This consultancy offers high level strategic consulting services using these tools to corporate clients and is now also offering these services to ministries as led by Yahweh. Increasingly these services are offered on the basis of the client meeting direct expenses and remuneration as led by Yahweh on an offering basis according to benefit derived and financial means of the client organization. The processes have historically demonstrated the potential to save corporate clients millions of dollars in an intervention of from one to three days and to provide the basis to develop comprehensive strategies for turnaround or global leadership in the space of weeks.
Insofar as the tools and technique are powerful and effective, the writer gives all honour and glory to Yahweh - i had no intention of developing anything like this when i started, Yahweh has progressively given revelation, experience, knowledge, etc over decades that has all come together in the past year to give a tool-set and methodology which is highly effective and comprehensive. That which is presented in this document and those that will, Yahweh willing, shortly follow, represent only a relatively small component of the rich technical complexity and sophistication which is available to progressively develop this analysis through to comprehensive results oriented actionable, measurable strategic plans.
The initial components of the approach applied in this analysis are derived from the "Exmar" Strategic Marketing Planning Methodology of Professor Malcolm Macdonald of Cranfield Institute of Management in the late 1980's. It has been greatly extended by the writer, led by the Spirit of Yahweh, since the early 1990's. The essence of the analytical approach is the so-called Pareto (80:20) analysis which is based on the experiential observation that 20% of factors in any situation account for 80% of the impact. In other terms, the vast majority of people spend 80% of their time on the 80% of the factors that will make only 20% of the impact and only 20% of their time on the 20% of the factors that will make 80% of the impact.
Consequently most people achieve very little of what could have been achieved and this gives rise to gross inefficiencies in most organizations.
For a truly effective solution, one should devote 80% of effort to the 20% of the issues that will make 80% of the difference and then devote the remaining effort to the 80% that will make 20% of the difference. In other terms, failure to identify and execute the 20% factors will result in FAILURE, EVEN if people are working extremely industriously on the other factors.
As will be seen from the analysis that follows in this and, Yahweh willing, subsequent articles, one of the major factors behind the terrible state of the Body of Believers and the world today is the tendency of believers to focus on the 80% of issues which make only 20% of the impact on Satan and to largely ignore the 20% of the factors which are necessary to defeat Satan.
This article and those that, Yahweh willing, will follow, are directed at providing Believers with the information required to enable them to focus their prayers and their lives effectively on the factors that are REALLY necessary to defeat Satan and to bring the reign of the Spirit of Yahweh to earth through the anointing in order to prepare the way for the return of King Yahshua, the second resurrection and the White Throne Judgment at the end of the Millennium prior to the coming of the New Jerusalem and the reign of Yahweh on earth through His people under the rulership of King Yahshua, for eternity.
Strategic Process
The overall strategic process comprises the following components (these are calibrated and adjusted for each specific strategic situation):
- High level strategic analysis using the High Level Strategic View (Snap Shot) development StratView Tool as applied in the analyses contained in this article.
The original secular processes on which this process is based was directed at deriving six Critical factors giving 16.67% per factor on a uniform distribution. Earlier this year, Yahweh impressed on the writer to convert this to seven Critical factors (14.29% per factor) since seven (7) is Yahweh's number of completion, fulfilment, covenant, etc.
- Systematic weighted gap analysis -- StratGap.
- Detailed development of strategic frameworks StratFrame .
- Development of an integrated strategic design StratDesign.
- Development of a systematic strategic action plan StratAction.
- Development of comprehensive strategic project plans which incorporate comprehensive strategic implementation components StratProject.
- Measurement (auditing) of performance during implementation and progressively as time passes StratAudit.
Initial Strategic Analysis
The initial high level strategic analysis or strategic view (StratView) reported in this article comprises the following principal steps:
- Define mission, vision, objectives - in this case given by Yahweh.
- Define focus question for the specific session - in this case given by Yahweh.
- Brainstorm all possible factors and synthesize critical factors - in this case the critical factors were given direct by Yahweh.
- Rank factors in terms of relative impact or importance - in this case ranking was given by Yahweh.
- Determine relative weights out of 100% for all factors - in this case weights were given by Yahweh.
Since the factors, ranking, weights, etc were given by Yahweh and frequently related to issues which the writer had not previously given in-dept consideration to in this context, it was necessary for the writer then to seek guidance from Yahweh in order to understand what the factors related to and why Yahweh ranked and weighted them the way He did.This information was recorded against each factor weighting and is presented in the tables that follow.
- In some cases it is appropriate to determine relative effort (physical effort or manpower or finances) or relative time to be applied to each factor - often the relative weight in terms of importance is very different to the relative effort. Frequently a factor may be extremely important but require relatively little effort while another factor may require considerable effort but not be nearly as important. It is this dichotomy between importance and effort that frequently results in people ignoring the small but often challenging or complex factors which make the greatest difference and concentrating on the "big" tasks which make very little overall difference. Where these additional parameters were determined, they were given by Yahweh.
- Rate the factors on a scale of 0 to 10 where 0 = the minimum possible on a global scale, could not be less and 10 = the maximum possible on a global scale, could not be greater. Ratings were given by Yahweh.
In the analyses presented in this document, the variability of performance across the body of believers is so great that determining a single rating is not of much relevance. Accordingly each factor was rated in terms of:
a. The median rating - the rating that as many believers in the world are higher than as are less than, as given by Yahweh.
b. The mean minus three standard deviations - the rating that 99.9% of all believers is greater than, as given by Yahweh.
c. The mean plus three standard deviations - the rating that 99.9% of all believers is less than, as given by Yahweh.
The maximum - the highest rating of any believer alive today, as given by Yahweh.
These four ratings permit an understanding of the overall state of the Body of Believers on earth and this is documented on the tables, as given by Yahweh.
These factors, ranks, weights, relative effort assessments and ratings together with explanations of what each means, as given by Yahweh, is contained in the tables that follow.
Where appropriate, additional notes are included supplementing what is contained in the tables.
In reading what follows, readers should be aware that the writer has been immensely challenged by much of what Yahweh has given him and, at times, has had difficulty comprehending exactly what Yahweh was saying to him since it materially differed from the understanding that the writer had previously had. For this reason it is possible that there have been momentary interjections of the writers understanding which may have some impact on the more detailed content of some of the notes.
Since the nature of the analysis is quantitative rather qualitative, it is important to note that the prophetic essence of the analysis rests in the numeric values more than in the explanations.
The tables that follow are extracted directly from the StratView tool that was used for the analysis and contain the ratings given by Yahweh and the accompanying explanations.
Further contextual process explanation and interpretation is interspersed with the tables.
SESSION DETAILS
The session details are set out in Table 1 which highlights the basic focus of the planning session.

DETERMINATION AND ANALYSIS OF CRITICAL STRENGTHS
As outlined previously, in a secular analysis, a group of delegates would brainstorm all possible factors and then synthesise the seven CRITICAL factors. In this case the factors were given directly by Yahweh with some interaction with the writer as in some cases initially the writer had great difficulty in grasping what Yahweh was indicating since the information given by Yahweh was on occasion materially different from the writers own understanding.
The Critical Strengths are listed in Table 2 and it should be noted that NONE of them have a direct spiritual content, they all relate to technology, modern human capabilities, etc. This reflects the fact that in spiritual terms Yahweh is indicating that the Body of Believers have NEVER been more apostate and more spiritually weak than they are today while there are numerous technical and other factors which collectively result in a situation where the Body of Believers have NO EXCUSE for this situation. We have global communication and the Internet; innumerable mainstream and personal bible translations, many available electronically over the Internet at no charge; numerous other Scripture research resources in terms of dictionaries, concordances, lexicons, interlinear Bibles, etc; a common language in the form of English spoken by an extremely large proportion of believers world wide which facilitates the sharing of information; numerous computer based tools for bible analysis, etc, several available free of charge off the Internet; high levels of literacy amongst a very considerable number of believers worldwide ensuring that most believers do not need to depend on others to interpret the Scriptures for them or to investigate alternative interpretations, etc and substantial wealth and free time, particularly amongst believers in North America, Europe and many other nations.
Collectively, these strengths provide believers with the facility to be led by the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh into ALL TRUTH, to personally and individually research and establish the truth for themselves, to broadcast that truth should they obtain revelation that is not widely held and to contribute generously in terms of finances to support those who are undertaking work that specific individuals do not feel qualified or have time to undertake.
As indicated in the tables that follow, Yahweh states that these strengths are NOT being effectively harnessed.
Table 4 lists the performance rating of the Body of Believers today (December 2001) as given by Yahweh. Overall, the lower bound rating of 1.0 out of 10 indicates that many in the Body are hardly exploiting the strengths at all. The 3.7 (37%) median rating indicates that half of all believers are harnessing less than 37% of the strengths available to them and 99.9% are harnessing less than 45% of what is available. Even those who are harnessing these strengths to the maximum are only overall harnessing them to 57% of potential.
Yahweh spoke to the writer PARTICULARLY HARSHLY about the number of believers who are earning income off the sale of teachings and other materials and through copyright, etc are preventing the less financially privileged believers from having access to these resources. In the past year, Yahweh has made the writer very aware of the difficulties that those who are in difficult financial circumstances have in obtaining important teachings, reference materials, etc. Many major ministries publish important revelations in hard or soft bound commercially published format with glossy covers and expensive distribution and then copyright these materials in such a way that it is illegal for others to photocopy, publish on the Internet electronically, duplicate tapes, etc. Many modern Bible versions are copyright and only available for a fee over the Internet from web sites which supply many of the other translations free of charge. One very important modern translation, the Amplified Bible, is, to the best of the writer's knowledge only available from one commercial software distributor as the "New Testament" only at considerable cost and the "Old Testament" version is apparently not available electronically at all.
Yahweh's standpoint on this is very specific, His Word states relating to one who sought to purchase the gift of the Set Apart Holy Spirit in Acts 8:20‑23 "20 But Peter said to him, "Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of Yahweh could be purchased with money! 21 "You have neither part nor portion in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of Yahweh. 22 "Repent therefore of this your wickedness, and pray Yahweh if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you. 23 "For I see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity." (NKJ adjusted with correct names). Yahweh has referred the writer to this passage on several occasions when i have enquired about copyright on teachings, etc. Another passage is Matthew 10:8b ".... Freely you have received, freely give." (NKJ)
Yahweh does NOT have a problem with people recovering their costs from those who CAN afford to pay, however, He has a MAJOR PROBLEM with people who truly cannot afford to pay being denied access to truths which Yahweh has given. He also does not have a problem with offering well presented versions at a profit for those who CAN afford such versions, however, He requires that there should ALWAYS be a way for those who cannot afford such material to obtain it, at the VERY LEAST, over the Internet.

The other aspect in the following table which has a bearing on many, relates to finances. Yahweh states categorically that He has blessed millions of believers financially yet VERY FEW have used those financial blessings for His work. Many have expropriated Yahweh's blessings for their own lusts instead of giving generously to His work.
Others have not acted as wise stewards and have blindly given to assemblies or ministries which were preaching error or not in His will. Or have locked themselves into "membership" or "partnership" agreements which have no basis in Scripture. Others give into the "begging bowls", "begging bags", "begging baskets" and "begging buckets" (Yahweh's words) passed round at meetings for which there is no Scriptural basis and without asking Yahweh's guidance. Offerings should be placed quietly and without hype in chests or similar receptacles near the door.
"Offering messages", etc are used to pressurise people into giving. Vast amounts have been expended on duplicate buildings, luxury facilities and other applications which were NOT Yahweh's will at the expense of making the Good News of Yahweh's Kingdom and the salvation of Yahweh purchased through Yahshua, available to as many as possible. Yahweh has stated that He will judge those responsible very harshly on the Day of Judgment and they will find the "blood of millions on their hands" on That Day! Those who have given Yahweh's money into such ministries will find that they are charged with bad stewardship on the Day of Judgment.
Yahweh stresses that there is ONLY ONE BODY, not numerous congregations and assemblies which are entitled to demand loyalty, etc, Yahweh's people should be free to move as He leads, to give as He leads, etc.
CRITICAL WEAKNESSES
Table 5 lists the seven Critical Weaknesses of the Body of Believers identified by Yahweh. These weaknesses relate to error, complacency, division, demonization, ignorance of church history, worship of men and other factors.
Yahweh states that ALL of these weaknesses are as a consequence of "CULPABLE NEGLIGENCE" on the part of believers generally and leaders in particular for which those who do not repent in this life will be judged EXTREMELY HARSHLY! We have the resources, we have the Set Apart Holy Spirit, we are WITHOUT EXCUSE!
Table 6 lists the relative weighting of the weaknesses, as given by Yahweh. Again the ranking and weight progression of the factors is NOT sequential, read the table in rank order.
It is significance that Yahweh allocates 80% of the relative weight to complacency, the erroneous teaching that "Jesus / Yahshua is coming soon" and an almost total lack of awareness that BELIEVERS WILL BE JUDGED and will be subject to a STRICTER JUDGMENT than unbelievers.
Yahweh states that if believers understood there was another thousand years before Yahshua will return, that there will be NO "RAPTURE" in the next thousand years and that EVERY believer WILL BE JUDGED, then most of the other weaknesses would be overcome. As it is, the vast majority of believers, IF judged today will NOT inherit the Kingdom of Yahweh and will, instead, burn in the lake of fire and brimstone for eternity. Even most of those who do not burn for eternity will have a PART in the lake of fire and brimstone.
Table 7 reports the rating of the Critical Weaknesses by Yahweh. Overall, there are significant numbers of believers who rate zero (0), in other words, the weaknesses are FULLY evident in their lives. Half the body of believers have less than 19% revelation in the areas of weakness, 99.9% are subject to a level of 75% of the weaknesses (overcoming the weaknesses in 25% of areas).
The highest level of overcoming is at 81%, in other words, those with the lowest weakness rating still have 19% of CRITICAL weaknesses present in their lives. Overall the body of believers is "pitifully weak and powerless" (Yahweh's words).
Table 10 lists the relative effort in terms of manpower and resources (including financial) required to seize these opportunities. It is noteworthy that items 3, 4, 5 and 6 require NO EFFORT, they are all purely spiritual activities involving prayer, revelation, etc.
Development of the strategic plan is only 1% of effort and is an activity currently underway by this ministry with very limited resources. Additional financial resources will be required to develop the plan to it's full depth as revealed to the writer by Yahweh and readers who are able are encouraged to make financial contributions to support this work.
99% of the effort and resources that Yahweh has identified are required to establish the technology infrastructure to collect, collate, publish and distribute Yahweh's truth's, as set out in the "Evangelism Iceberg" document. The overall strategic plan for this component will, Yahweh willing, be progressively published in the months ahead.
"Evangelism Iceberg" document. The overall strategic plan for this component will, Yahweh willing, be progressively published in the months ahead.
Overall 99.9% of believers are doing LESS THAN 24% of what they should be doing in these areas, very few are doing anything of material significance and even those who ARE doing the most in the world are WELL short (65%) of Yahweh's requirement.
MOST SERIOUS of all these ratings is the 0.5% MAXIMUM rating for joining forces to cast Satan into the Pit! Yahweh has called numerous men and women over recent decades to take the lead in this area. Until recently, ALL have chosen to go their own way with the result that there is no longer time for any single human being to really effectively take the lead in this area. Furthermore, even those who are called to support the person who HAS accepted this call, are too busy with their own interests, their own wrong beliefs, etc to heed Yahweh's call and the person Yahweh has called is not yet spiritually in the position that Yahweh needs him to be. Overall, this is an extremely serious situation which requires INTENSE INTERCESSION by all who can accurately read the signs of the times!
In considering these ratings, and other ratings in this document, it is important to be aware that where shepherds and other leaders ("Pastors", etc) have taken it upon themselves to set themselves up as lord and masters and controllers and custodians of their "flocks" and thereby to control what their "disciples" / "members" / "partners" believe, what they read, where they fellowship, etc, in Yahweh's sight HE HOLDS THAT LEADER ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS "FLOCK". Yahweh states that if a man or woman wants to "take ownership" (Yahweh's words) of a portion of YAHWEH'S FLOCK instead of permitting each person to be taught by the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh and permitting Yahweh to lead His people to whatever teacher, assembly, etc that YAHWEH chooses at any moment, Yahweh will hold that "leader" fully accountable for that "flock" and, to the extent that this is RIFE in the Body of Believers today, these ratings are more a rating of leaders than of the body as a whole!
CRITICAL THREATS
Table 12 lists the critical threats to the body of believers, as given by Yahweh. Apart from the threat associated with the scheduled binding of Satan and casting of Satan into the Pit at about Passover 2003 (less than eighteen months time), all other threats relate to the ineffectiveness, powerlessness, etc of the body of believers relative to the world system.
Satan has appropriated nearly all the power, finances, integrity, spirituality, love, compassion, caring, sex, position and recognition that SHOULD belong to the Body of Believers and has corrupted it in the "church" and the Body and is applying it to good effect in the world amongst those who are not serving Yahweh at all and amongst those whose faith is so nominal and so shallow that they are believers in name only but, on the Day of Judgment, they will be found to be unbelievers.
Table 13 reports the relative weights for the Critical Threats, as assigned by Yahweh. Again, readers are encouraged to read the table in rank sequence, NOT sequentially.
It is significant that 90% of the weight is allocated to "Satan's time is running out".
In all the other six factors, Satan has manipulated things such that the body of believers, particularly the "church" has got into so much error and deception that in all six areas those in the world generally excel in things that Yahweh intended to be the preserve of Yahweh's people. Whether in power and finances, sex, position and recognition, spirituality and spiritual powers, love, compassion and caring or integrity, the body of believers fail to demonstrate the true benefits of service to Yahweh in terms of the covenants that Yahweh has made with His people from the very beginning.
In terms of these covenants, Yahweh has promised to "open the windows of heaven and pour out blessings that there is not room enough to contain them" (Malachi 3:10) and has further promised that those blessings will "make rich with no sorrow added" (Proverbs 10:22). Numerous other Scriptures clearly show that it is Yahweh's will for those who serve Him WHOLEHEARTEDLY, like Abraham, Joseph, David, Daniel, Yahshua, and others, to walk in prosperity, power, influence, love, compassion, integrity, etc.
The lack of integrity in the body of believers is largely consequent on the other points as well as on the aspects of error, etc. The reality is that most believers will stand up and present a message that is materially in error and corrupt and then have a stand up argument with one who offers Scripture to prove them wrong without the slightest twinge of conscience to the effect that clearly there is another side to the story and they might be in error. One of the most extreme cases of this almost universal lack of integrity relates to the doctrine of enforced monogamy. Almost all believers today will insist that Yahweh ordained for only one woman to marry one man and will cite various arguments, in the process ignoring LITERALLY hundreds of Scriptures and numerous Scriptural principles as well as ignoring the physical reality of female virginity in the context of Deuteronomy 22 to argue a case which has absolutely NO scriptural basis. This sort of gross hypocrisy and crass error is rife in the body of believers today and pollutes almost every message preached from platform or pulpit and almost every document written. There are numerous other major errors that are almost universally adhered to.
Another example is the equation of "Jesus" = "Christ" whereby it is taken that referring to "Christ" is exactly the same as referring to "Jesus" or "Yahshua". The reality is that "Christ" is derived from the Greek word "christos" meaning "anointed" or "anointed one" or "anointing" and therefore refers to the anointing of believers with the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh. Accordingly, "Christ" = "Yahweh" IS a valid equation, while stating that "Jesus" = "Christ" has no basis in fact. Yahshua was the promised "anointed one", Yahshua WAS anointed, the anointing on Yahshua, which IS the anointing of the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh IS the same yesterday, today and forever, it is the ANOINTING that strengthens us, etc.
In all these instances, the Scriptures translated Christ are referring to the anointing of the Set Apart Holy Spirit of Yahweh, NOT Yahshua UNLESS expressly indicated. Many others in Scripture have been anointed (i.e "christos"), not only Yahshua. However, the deification of a Greek technical term which is directly comparable to the Hebrew technical terms translated "anoint", "anointed", etc and failure to recognize that Yahshua was a Jew who spoke Aramaic or Hebrew and NOT Greek, has resulted in a situation where a concept and words that occur throughout Scripture prior to Yahshua suddenly takes on a whole new meaning from the time of Yahshua WITHOUT ANY SCRIPTURAL BASIS.
This wholesale lack of integrity in the body of believers is, while given the lowest weighting below, indicative of the overall weak and apostate state of the body of believers world wide.
Table 14 presents the ratings of the Critical Threats, as given by Yahweh. Overall, 99.9% of all believers are rated by Yahweh at LESS than 24% in terms of effectively countering these Critical Threats and even the extremely small number who are rated higher are only walking in an average rating of 66% and no single man or woman is walking in the maximum in all of these areas.
CRITICAL DOCTRINAL FACTORS
In a number of the SWOT components, issues of doctrinal error are raised. Different aspects of doctrinal error have different impacts in the weaknesses and threats and offer different potential impacts in the Strengths and Opportunities. In order to obtain a clear assessment of the full spectrum of doctrinal error in the context of CRITICAL DOCTRINAL FACTORS required to be resolved by those who are required by Yahweh to play a role in casting Satan into the Pit at about Passover 2003, a Critical Doctrinal Factor analysis was undertaken using the same process as the previous points.
The critical doctrinal factors in terms of Satan being cast into the Pit are listed in table 15. These factors relate to understanding Yahweh; Yahshua; covenant; Torah (the commandments) and judgment; marriage, sex and family related; ordinances of the faith and sanctification and all other aspects of doctrine of relevance.
Many of these factors are issues which many believers, if one is to gauge by published teachings, utterances from pulpits, etc, consider that they have full revelation on. It is highly challenging to take note of what Yahweh has to say on these matters.
The relative weights for the Critical Doctrinal Factors, as given by Yahweh, are reported in table 16.
It is noteworthy that Yahweh states that there is serious error in the Body generally relating to who He is and also relating to who Yahshua is and what Yahshua did and did not do. Lack of knowledge in the areas of covenant, Torah and judgment are ALSO critical. The first three factors, Yahweh, Yahshua and covenant account for 58% of what is important.
The comment by Yahweh against other doctrines, that 98% of ALL messages preached, taught, recorded, written, etc in the body of believers today contains at least SOME gross error of a nature likely to condemn those who believe it and apply it to a part in the lake of fire and brimstone! Yahweh is NOT saying that the entire messages are in error, He IS saying that at some point during the presentation of 98% of all messages, the speaker / writer will say something that represents a CRITICAL ERROR. The rest of the message may be entirely correct and given by Yahweh, however, somewhere, some major error WILL creep in and will not be recognized as error by the speaker / writer OR by anyone listening to / reading the teaching. This is a direct measure of the magnitude of "leaven" (error) in the body today!
Table 17 reports the ratings of the Critical Doctrinal Factors as given by Yahweh. Overall, half the body of believers know 36% of what is required to cast Satan into the Pit, 99.9% know less than 51% of what is required to cast Satan into the Pit and the highest rating overall for anyone on earth is 80%. In other words, on average, there is not a single person on earth with less than 20% error in the CRITICAL areas required to cast Satan into the Pit! Furthermore, there is NO SINGLE PERSON who rates 80% in every area! The various aspects of truth are known by different people, submerged in different errors.
The complete spectrum of truth required to cast Satan into the Pit is known only to Yahweh and His Holy (Set Apart) Spirit and we must therefore ALL turn to Yahweh to lead us into ALL TRUTH and specifically, all truth required to cast Satan into the Pit for a thousand years at about Passover 2003.
Yahweh states that "the HIGHEST level of error is found amongst graduates of Bible Colleges, Theological Colleges, Seminaries and other professional' ministry training grounds". Yahweh states that the problem is "directly comparable to that of the scribes and pharisees (the professional ministers) in the days of Yahshua"!
CONCLUSION
The body of believers is currently in terrible shape and it is no wonder that Satan is winning the battle for dominion over the earth.
Those who truly desire to serve Yahweh with all their heart, mind, soul and strength need to turn to Yahweh with great urgency and ask Him to cleanse them of all unrighteousness, show them the level of their present deception, cleanse them from their sin and turn them to the paths that Yahweh requires them to walk in. In this regard, the prayers contained in article 1A1.01.12.01 "Some Useful Prayers" (03 December 2001) should all be prayed regularly.
Readers are encouraged to read AS MANY different Bible translations as possible and to constantly seek Yahweh's truths, fully expecting MUCH of what they currently believe to be confounded and turned upside down!
