Useful Resource
Greetings
This is the second part of the article posted earlier
In the first part of this article a case was presented which it is hoped clearly indicated that the next event of major significance that is required to happen according to Scripture is for Satan to be cast into the Pit for a thousand years in accordance with Revelation 20:1-3.
Various remarks were made to the effect that the reason that the things that people WERE expecting to happen were not happening was not because the season or time was wrong but that they were expecting the wrong things.
In this second part of the article I will endeavour to present what is not about to happen, despite the fact that virtually all believers ARE expecting it and what is about to happen and has already started to happen.
The most important point to understand, which is hopefully apparent from careful consideration of the previous message, is that Yahshua / Jesus is not about to appear on the clouds, rapture the faithful and then return with the faithful to rule for a thousand years.
The reality is that Yahshua will only return at the END of the thousand years AFTER mankind, assisted by the Set-Apart {Holy} Spirit, has defeated Satan and his hordes finally once and for all. IMMEDIATELY after that Yahshua will appear and then the final judgment will take place.
Why do I say that Yahshua is NOT about to appear on the clouds?
Revelation 20:4-6
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. (KJV)
The essence of the expectation that Yahshua will return and will reign on earth for a thousand years are the two passages that are underlined.
It seems quite clear that those who overcome will reign with Yahshua for a thousand years.
This is based on an almost universal understanding that "Christ" or "Messiah" is another way of describing "Jesus" or "Yahshua". In other words, "Christ" or "Messiah" are words that synonymously indicate "Jesus" or "Yahshua".
For those who have been following the ETI list over the last year or so you will be aware that this is NOT the case.
In order to understand this there are a few points that need to be considered.
There are only two verses in the New Testament which refer to "Messiah" or "Messias", these are John 1:41 and John 4:25.
John 1:41 in the translation called "The Scriptures" by the Institute of Scripture Research, which takes account of the fact that the original manuscripts were written in Hebrew or Aramaic, reads:
... "We have found the Messiah" (which means the Anointed).
John 4:25 reads:
... "I know that Messiah is coming, the One who is called Anointed. When that one comes, He shall announce to us all."
The translations of these verses BOTH reflect the fact that the word Messiah simply means "anointed".
Reference to these two verses in virtually all other translations use the word "Christ" in place of "anointed".
In contrast, The Scriptures, having shown in these two locations that the word Messiah actually means "anointed" then proceed to translate all further occurences of Christos and it's derivatives as Messiah which is effectively contradictory of the translations in John 1:41 and 4:25.
The bottom line, if one researches it in depth, is that "Christ" means "anoint", "anointing", "anointed" or "anointed one" and that there are at least five or six different derivatives of "Christos" in the Greek including Christon, Christoo, etc each of which must clearly have a different nuance of meaning.
The bottom line, however, is that Yahshua is not Yahshua Messiah, nor is he Jesus Christ, he is Yahshua the Anointed of Yah.
The anointing refers in turn to the outpouring of the Spirit of Yah - the Set-Apart {Holy} Spirit of Yah on any person to equip them for the work to which Yah has called them.
Thus Simon Peter was anointed, just as Saul / Paul was anointed, just as the other disciples were anointed, just as any believer who has received the immersion in the Set-Apart {Holy} Spirit of Yah is anointed, just as King David was anointed, just as Moses was anointed, so Yahshua was also anointed. However, it is apparent from his life that Yahshua was more intensely anointed than anyone who went before him or who has come after him.
The main point, however, is that ANYONE who is anointed can, if one wants to adopt the "Christ" convention be referred to as "Christ", thus Simon Peter the anointed of Yah could be referred to as Simon Peter Christ if the same linguistic convention is applied.
Insofar as most regard Messiah and Christ as interchangeable then Simon Peter could be referred to as Simon Peter Messiah using the same linguistic convention.
There are other passages that refer to Yahshua as "The Anointed One" which are also translated "Christ". These passages might with one school of thought be regarded as indicating "Messiah" in the sense that it is typically understood. However, as we will see shortly, "Messiah" is not actually a biblical word at all.
The bottom line is that there are occurences of "Christ" in the New Testament which include the following meanings:
- Yahshua the Anointed of Yah {Jesus Christ}
- the Anointed of Yah {the Christ}
- the anointing that was upon Yahshua {Christ Jesus}
- the anointing {Christ}
- etc
These result in VERY DIFFERENT meanings.
Specifically in the context of this article, the word "Christ" in Revelation 20:3 and 20:6 is the Greek "Christou" which as far as I can determine simply means that "reign with Christ" means that they will "reign with the anointing" for a thousand years. Or, more exactly, they will "reign with the anointing of the Set-Apart{Holy} Spirit of Yah" for a thousand years.
In other words, they will be filled with the SPIRIT OF YAH and will be led by the Spirit of Yah to reign on earth and bring the Kingdom of Heaven to earth THROUGH MEN!
In other words, "Reign with Christ" has absolutely NOTHING to do with Yahshua.
By the same token the "coming of Christ" that has been widely expected for the last few years is a "coming of the anointing" or "coming of AN anointing" and likewise has nothing to do with Yahshua!
Yahshua is seated at the right hand of the Father waiting till his enemies are made his footstool, as we saw in the previous article.
On a more radical note it is important to understand that the word "Messiah" does not occur in the Old Testament Scriptures.
In most translations the word Messiah occurs ONLY in Daniel 9:25 and 9:26 but in the New International Version and the Revised Standard Version even these verses refer to "an anointed one" or "the anointed one". In these translations "Messiah" does not occur ANYWHERE in the Old Testament.
The word translated "Messiah" in Daniel 9:25 and 26 is the Hebrew word Maashiyach, Strong's number 4899 which Strong defines as:
4899 mashiyach (maw-shee'-akh);
from 4886; anointed; usually a consecrated person (as a king, priest, or saint); specifically, the Messiah:
KJV-- anointed, Messiah.
Brown, Driver, Brigg's defines as:
4899 mashiyach-
the anointed, the anointed one)
used of the Messiah, Messianic prince
b) used of the king of Israel
c) used of the high priest of Israel
d) used of Cyrus
e) used of the patriarchs as anointed kings
This word occurs over 43 times in the old testament and is used to describe a diversity of people, as indicated above. All instances of 4899 are listed in Appendix A. Specifically it is used of various kings and priests of Israel as well as Cyrus the King of Persia as the anointed instrument of Yah's judgment of Israel in Isaiah 45:1 "1 Thus saith Yah the eternally self existent to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;" (KJV)
What is vitally important to recognize is that while there IS such a thing as one who is specially anointed of Yah, which role was fulfilled by Yahshua, there have been OTHERS who have also been specially anointed of Yah for different purposes and, as set out above, the role of being an anointed of Yah is NOT RESTRICTED to Yahshua.
Thus we see again that Revelation 20 is NOT speaking of Yahshua when it refers to "reign with the anointing for a thousand years" it is simply speaking of those believers who overcome and are anointed with the Set-Apart {Holy} Spirit of Yah as well as those who are resurrected at this time AND anointed with the Set-Apart {Holy} Spirit of Yah.
As best I can discern and determine at this time, the following is roughly what is in store in 2003:
1. Some time shortly after Passover, provided there is a man to act as prosecutor, Satan will be cast into the Pit for a thousand years.
2. At this time "all hell" will break loose in the spirit realm as Satan's servants fight for control of the kingdom of darkness. This will continue intensely until Tabernacles 2003 by which time there will be sufficient believers waging war in the heavenlies in an effective manner that relative order will start to prevail. This battle will continue for the next thousand years and will then escalate drastically when Satan and his cohorts are released from the Pit at the end of the thousand years.
3. Starting at Tabernacles 1996 a special anointing started to be poured out on the earth in Lagos, Nigeria, in Africa. That anointing has spread over the world and will start to manifest with increasing strength later in this year as people who have been anointed start to be raised into positions of authority and power. It seems that this will be an ongoing process over decades if not longer. Whether this will relate to positions of authority in the natural realm AS WELL as the spiritual realm is not clear at present.
4. The overcomers of previous centuries and millenia will start to be resurrected as everyday human beings with extraordinary annointings and will progressively find their way into positions of authority and leadership. It is my impression that this may in fact have commenced at Tabernacles 1996 but it is my impression that this will accelerate over a period which I currently understand to be thirty years.
At this moment my impression is that they will physically be resurrected on earth but whether this is just my impression of the actual fact remains to be seen.
All of this will be essentially invisible except to those with ears to hear and eyes to see and will take place in the Spiritual realm. Exactly what the manifestations may be in the natural realm are not clear. I have had visions of nuclear war but am unsure whether that is spiritual war or physical war.
This is as clearly as I am able to see things at this stage. For those that have been following the ETI list it will be apparent that there is not much greater clarity on most of these issues than there was a year ago.
