The tapestry of our lives and all that occurs therein has been predestined by the foreknowledge of the G-d of all Creation, and that He has given us the free will within that tapestry to make our choices accordingly in the fulfillment of His good pleasure for our good in a fallen and sinful universe where other forces work hard to undo His will, and therefore tragedy ensues; while G-d works all things together for good to those who love Him, to those who are called according to His good pleasure.
Everything in this universe, every event, every life - every endeavor, every action and reaction - everything has not happened and does not happen by chance, but works within the tapestry of the Sovereign will and foreknowledge of Almighty G-d. We may understand it, we may not agree with how it appears at others times depending on of our understanding or lack thereof pertaining to it. I like the way a Chassidic Rabbi across the ocean in Ireland puts it, and I quote here:
"The life we see on a daily basis is like looking at the back of a tapestry … we see disjointed colours and threads. One day we will get to see the other side, the beautiful tapestry in full colour, and we will say, 'Ah, now we understand!' For now, we need to believe. Shabbat Shalom"
Rabbi Zalman Lent
Quoted from an article he posted on line about a beautiful Chanukah story about something marvelous that happened to a friend of his that illustrates the wonderful Sovereign hand of the Almighty in the every day affairs of our lives.
Even better is how Scripture describes it, where Rav Shaul, otherwise known to Christians as the Apostle Paul writes under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit the following:
When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
1Corinthians 13:11-13
But I will tell of a greater work of G-d. Let's continue.
Remember, there is no such thing as chance and randomness in the Hebrew Bible, for the Lord who watches Israel neither slumbers, nor sleeps, and nothing escapes His notice, but everything must come before His throne before it is done or undone. In these days of seeming uncertainty and unrest; it is a good thing for US to remember that the G-d who has kept Israel since Abraham embarked on his journey out of Ur with his family, and later out of his father’s house to a land yet unknown to him, until the present day; this same G-d is with every Jew and every Christian who puts their faith and trust in Him, especially those who do it through Maschiach Yeshua, of whom Isaiah wrote “He (Maschiach) was despised and forsaken of men, a man of sorrowful pains and acquainted with sickness and grief; and like one from whom men hide their face He (Maschiach) was despised, and we (Israel and the nations) did not esteem Him. Surely our (Israel’s and the world’s) sickness and griefs He (Maschiach) Himself bore, and our sorrowful pains (Israel’s and all of mankind’s) He (Maschiach) carried; yet we ourselves (Jews and Gentiles) esteemed Him (Maschiach) stricken, struck down by G-d, and afflicted. But He (Maschiach) was pierced and wounded through for our (all of mankind’s) transgressions, He (Maschiach) was crushed for our (Israel’s and the nation’s) iniquities; the chastening for our (All of Mankind’s) well-being and peace fell upon Him (Maschiach), and by His (Maschiach’s) scourging we (Israel and the nations) are healed. All of us (every human being) like sheep have gone astray, each of us (every individual – no one but Maschiach is exempt) has turned to his own way; but the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all (Mankind) to fall on Him (Maschiach). He (Maschiach) was oppressed and He (Maschiach) was afflicted, yet He (Maschiach) did not open His mouth; like a lamb that is led to slaughter, and like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, so He (Maschiach) did not open His mouth. By oppression and judgment He (Maschiach) was taken away; and as for His generation, who considered that He (Maschiach) was cut off out of the land of the living and from life for the transgression of my people (Isaiah’s people, Israel), to whom the stroke was due?”
(Isaiah 53:3-8)
It was not by chance, it was by G-d’s design for us and for our well-being, as Isaiah prophesies above. Just as Daniel the prophet writes also regarding Maschiach centuries before it took place the following:
“Seventy (units of sevens) weeks (years) have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish and restrain the transgression, to seal up and make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place. So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with streets and plaza and moat, even in times of distress. Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have no one and nothing, and the people (Romans) of the prince who is to come (Titus) will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end war will be decreed for desolations. And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of detestable things and abominations will come one who causes horror and makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who causes horror makes desolate.”
(Daniel 9:24-27)
This happened on the Hebrew month of Av, on the 9th day, in the year 70 of our common era. Daniel prophesied that Maschiach would come and make His appearance before this event and that following His death, there would come great destruction to both the temple in Jerusalem and to the city itself, and that the armies of its destroyers would enter the city like a flood. Moreover, Daniel prophesies that Maschiach would cut off from Israel a legal phrase from the Law meaning one who is cut off from his people, usually followed by capital punishment with very few exceptions such as exile, though the two did take place; Maschiach died and not only was He cut off from Judaism but from life, and Israel was exiled and Judaism transformed both within a generation. This was not by chance, but by design, and regardless of what Post-Modern Judaism or Christianity may teach on the subject, it did happen and there is nothing that the two – either the rabbis or the priests or ministers can do or say to change it; it is history, and according to Isaiah, Ha Shem Our Lord planned it that way. Why? For the good of my people for whom the stroke was due, as he has prophesied. But look closely at the prophecy. Note the language Isaiah employs where he says: “who considered that He (Maschiach) was cut off out of the land of the living and from life for the transgression of my people (Isaiah’s people, Israel), to whom the stroke was due?” (Isaiah 53:8)
Nothing is by chance. Nothing is random, but the G-d of the Universe – the King of the Universe as we say in our prayers and blessings – He and He alone is Sovereign over every life and every event that transpires under heaven and in heaven. Nothing is by chance. This is why the choices we make are so important. They have far reaching ramifications. We are like the proverbial pebble that is thrown into a pond, and our life here comes only once, therefore we must make the most of it by loving and seeking G-d with all our hearts, minds, and strength, and love our neighbors as ourselves by treating them as we would like to be treated by them, and not hide ourselves for ourselves but do good works that G-d has predestined for His good pleasure and the well-being of others long before the foundation of the earth was laid. The choice is ours, just as it was for Israel at Mount Horeb when G-d gave His Law; life or death, blessing or curse, good or bad. He has in His kindness given us the free will to choose each and every one of us for ourselves. The restoration of the universe will not begin without first the restoration of each and every person who make their own personal peace with their Maker who through Maschiach has prepared the way for them. The OLAM HA-BA (Heb. עוֹלָם הַבָּא) – the coming world – or world which is to come, will not be populated by murderers and thieves and whoremongers, but by people whom have individually made their choice in this life to accept that which G-d has planned for their well-being regardless of what the religious order of their upbringing has told them, because these also have fallen with this fallen world, and it is by the revelation of the Scriptures by the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit) that Our Maker, blessed be He, gives light to each and every person to make their choices according to His will for them for their well-being. He has done everything for us, now the choice is ours to make as to what to do about it and with it. Nothing is by chance, but by G-d’s design.

EPITAPH FOR AMERICA
America has reached the tipping point following this election. We are now witnessing the growth of Anti-Christian/Anti-Semitic forces marshaling across the country, and worshipping their Moon god whom they call Allah, and proclaiming that there is no prophet, but this Moon god’s false prophet named Mohamed. We are witnessing the reeducation of our youth, the redistribution of our wealth, the redefinition of marriage, the removal of G-d from our public places and our schools, the removal of His Ten Commandments from our legislature, the restrictions of our religious liberties as Christians and Jews even within our own congregations as we are increasingly being told what we can and cannot call sin, and witnessing the diminishing of our nation’s leadership as head of the nations while our two party system increasingly cede our rights and our sovereignty to the United Nations, as they sell our bonds to the international private banking cartel called the Federal Reserve Bank and its various subsidiaries and interests overseas.
We are witnessing right before our eyes the fall of our republic, as we are witnessing the continual dumbing down of our young as they are taught the curriculum of the two main teachers unions who control our public education system; the NEA (National Education Association) and NFT (National Federal of Teachers). In keeping with their century’s long agenda, they have silently infiltrated our schools, and today dominate what is taught in them without the consent of the parents whose children are subjected to daily indoctrination in secular humanism (a godless religious belief), socialism, sexual deviancy in the guise of sex education, and Darwinian Evolution Theories taught as fact in place of Creation Science.
In a generation these two unions which receive federal money (our tax dollars at work) in return for votes; have succeeded in producing the most illiterate and ill-informed generation our nation has ever seen graduate from its schools. We are seeing the fruits of this work in the trends that are moving our nation inexorably towards the precipice of its own destruction. There is now talk of our nation being unable to sustain itself and the possibility that it may break into various individuals regions comprised of various states within those regions. There is talk that America as we have known is now at an end with this election and that this president will carry out and finish his agenda of fundamentally transforming this country into something its founders never envisioned it would ever become, and he is doing this with the tacit help of the leadership of the opposition party even as I write this.
We are witnessing in this country trends we never believed we’d ever witness before. The people of G-d – Jews and Christians, who believe the Bible vote for elected officials who do not represent the teachings and morals of the Scriptures as taught by Judaism and Christianity; with a trend increasingly moving towards supporting those values and lifestyles and acts that the Scriptures call abominable sins. The same people who should be a light to our nation and oppose the politicians who promote such deviancy are now not only voting for these, but actively seen campaigning for their causes! This is the apostasy, not just the compromise between truth and religious error and cults, but the abandonment and suspension of the morals taught in Scripture to the “trendy” and “hip” values of pop culture. As this is taking place, Biblical illiteracy like illiteracy in general is all around US.
G-d’s people – Jews and Christians do not know their Bibles and what they teach. Those who attend Church or Synagogue, and listen to what is taught from its pulpits and bemas do not even remember what is said as they exit their houses of worship, and much of what is taught as passes for doctrine is a watered-down humanism and in some places outright heresy. This is modern America. And we are witnessing something that we had not witnessed before, those calling themselves Christians misusing so-called “discernment ministries” attacking other Christians with whom they disagree with – many of whom are shouting a warning of the harbingers unfolding before US – and using their influence within their respective religious communities to stifle and discredit the warnings being sounded, even as the events of these warnings are unfolding all around US at an alarming rate.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are witnessing the same signs that parallel ancient Israel here today in our own nation. These same patterns have to one extent or another repeated themselves in almost every civilization that has ever existed and risen to great heights of power and achievement. America is no exception, but it is our home, and we are witnessing it crumble right before our eyes. America – that is, the United States of America – is on a fast track to judgment, and G-d’s people, or a good many of them, appear to have no problem allowing it to happen.
Are you surprised by the signs all around US that we are no longer the nation that we once were? That our own leaders tell US that we are no longer a “Christian nation,” that is to say a representative Constitutional republic founded upon a firm Judeo-Christian ethic the likes of which no other nation outside of Ancient Israel has ever had, perhaps with the exception at one time of Great Britain during the 19th century when it surpassed all other nations in sending missionaries around the world to bring the G-d of Israel to the pagans of far off lands with His Good News. History is repeating itself here and now, and when some day our epitaph is written, it will be said of US that when they could make a difference – the people of G-d stood and stared perplexed at their own peril without knowing quite what had gone wrong, because they had forgotten their G-d and had long abandoned His ways.

America Where Goest Thou?
It is my opinion that we must reexamine ourselves to see if we are really truly walking in the faith, as the Apostle Paul admonishes; and that after much self-examination and hopefully, repentance we will reestablish our connection with the Almighty. While man looks at the results, or rather at the “outward appearance,” God looks at the heart – the root cause of the affect. Example; a no brainer such as voting for a person who although he is not a Christian, still possesses Christian values and mores, versus another who claims to be a Christian, but does not possess Christian values, and whose life shows no evidence or fruit that would confirm his claims. One would believe that a Christian or Observant Jew would vote for the former rather than the latter.
But the results showed that a sizable portion of Christian Evangelicals and Jews voted for the latter, though the former did get most of the Christian Evangelical vote, and a larger proportion of Roman Catholics voted for the former than for the latter, but still, a good part of the Catholic vote went to the latter.
What was the cause of this? I believe it can be narrowed down to Biblical illiteracy and a complete disconnect between the Christian’s “church life” and the rest of their life outside of the church and synagogue. This indicates that Christians and Jews are not living their spirituality outside of their churches synagogues – they’re not walking the walk – either at home or at work, or any place else, therefore it is reflected in the way they vote.
Moreover, today the Bible and every piece of information is available right at our finger tips, and no other period in human history has had such a deluge of information available to its reading and viewing public, and yet, a sizable portion of our populace remain uninformed or dis-informed about matters, are Biblically illiterate, have no understanding of the issues that frame the day, possess precious little knowledge of the institutions and Judeo-Christian history that forms the basis of this republic, and cannot process information properly or articulate why they vote and think as they do; they simply “function.”
This ought not to be.
And what about the rest? What can be the cause of their voting patterns? I believe it is what you wrote, that a sizable number of Spanish speaking people – if not all – view Univision and Telemundo – two channels (the only ones) that were and continue to be 100% behind one candidate, and fully owned subsidiaries of higher Mexican Elite interests who openly favor one candidate over the other. The same can be said about the English language channels and all the others, like the Asian channels. And don’t be fooled by Fox News Channel. They were the first to call certain “battleground states” for one of the candidate over the other with only one percent of the votes tallied and only a few precincts reporting. This also especially helped throw the election in one direction, and perpetuated and added “legitimacy” to its outcome, since the vast majority of the viewing public gets its news from Fox News and virtually swear by it.
The fact that the candidate that won did so by only 2% over his opponent indicates that there is a sizable population out there that know better and are better informed.
Another factor that I believe swayed the vote was the “hip factor.” One candidate was portrayed by the media – and I mean the entire media – as “more hip than the other.” This appealed to the game playing, movie viewing youth.
Bread and Circuses; that is what we have today with a good chunk of our population, if not almost all of it. Technology and electronics have made it possible.
And perhaps one of the greatest, if not the greatest factor in this election, and a good many others before it; voter election fraud, but on a scale and size never before seen in the history of this nation.
I agree with many others and a good many analysts, that what we witnessed in the 2012 presidential elections with ballot box stuffing and recounts, voter machine irregularities where a vote cast for one candidate ended up being changed immediately afterwards for the other, early voting, the immediate right to vote granted to approximately 3.5 million illegal aliens without the proper due process in accordance to over two hundred years of immigration laws in existence, the destruction of hundreds of thousands of absentee ballots by the military, and the deliberate late submission of other absentee ballots coming in from military personnel serving overseas in Afghanistan and other places, and the votes of deceased people being submitted for the candidate who “won,” as well as multiple votes casted for that candidate; all in all in practically all Democrat-controlled districts, helped throw the election in favor of one of the two candidates.
Add to this the fact that the voting machines were now supplied and the votes processed to a central server operated by Scytl, a Spanish company whose president and CEO is a former money bundler and supporter of one of the candidates – the one who “won” – and all of the above in varying degrees, secured the outcome of this election.
It broke with all convention and tradition, because it was rigged, like the fraud who now sits in the Oval Office, the election was the most blatant example of the level of corruption that has overtaken this nation in recent times.
It is unprecedented in the annals of this republic, and it is a manifestation of the amorality and immorality that has overtaken its populace. This nation is no longer the shining city on a hill, nor is it the city of God, it is fast become; indeed, has become Babylon the Harlot, the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
I am not optimistic about our nation, because the people who should know better, do not. What’s more, there is a spiritual blindness and cognitive dissonance within the population in general that is blinding this people from the reality that the two party system is nothing but a fraud; that the Left versus Right Paradigm is nothing more than a clever invention to throw them off track and take their focus away from the men behind the curtain who are running everything you see around you, to those who work for them on both sides of the political spectrum and within the leadership of both political parties.
There are those, and I know some of them, who are willfully blinded, who choose to go back to sleep, even though they know better; but like Cipher in The Matrix, they’d rather be reintegrated into the Matrix so they can enjoy their idyllic life in the here and now, because the reality of what is really going is too much for them to bear. They simply have shut themselves off from it, and have returned to “the system.”
In the face of this, we are seeing what we see today. Some have consigned themselves to its inevitability. They claim that the Scriptures teach it must come to pass, and therefore prefer to become passive observers of the degeneracy, occasionally one can hear them bemoan the state of things, but they won’t lift up a finger to make a difference, and when confronted about their apathy, they make every excuse under heaven for their complacent Laodicean spirit.
Others of the religious community – the so-called Christian Right and the New Orthodoxy of the so-called Discernment Ministries – are so Cessationist in their world view and approach to G-d that they quickly denounce and condemn anyone who remotely appears to them to disagree with their point theological points of view – what Christians call, the doctrinal differences Christians have such as those between Dispensationalists and Reform Christians. Some are so risk-adverse at sounding or appearing at all Pentecostal or Charismatic that any pronouncement that may appear even remotely as a prophetic prognostication, they readily condemn without knowing to the point that they couldn’t discern either the times we live in, or know and recognize the judgment of G-d if it were to hit them square between the eyes. You hear them express themselves in the following manner: “Perhaps such miracles did occur, but without scriptural support, there is no way to know for certain. At best, this account (the Talmud’s recollection of incredible signs that occurred for forty years prior to the destruction of the temple) makes for an interesting footnote, but it cannot be treated as factual… There is no way to know what really happened and there is no way to know that this was simply a Jewish myth.” (David James, The Harbinger: Fact or Fiction? page 200) This is not Christian unbelief with tinges of Gentile Anti-Semitism; it is Cessationist/Dispensationalist Post-Modern Christian Disbelief with a big dose of Anti-Semitism that presumes to mischaracterize Jewish writings outside of the Hebrew Bible and New Testament as unreliable on the basis that they are not included in the pages of the Bible. Incredible, but this is what the people of G-d are up against and this is what permeates the halls of higher knowledge and seminaries in America today.
This, I believe are the various parts of what constitutes the death of America, and its final demise as it has passed what some call “the tipping point,” and has entered without heeding the harbingers given to it; into judgment.
But the results showed that a sizable portion of Christian Evangelicals and Jews voted for the latter, though the former did get most of the Christian Evangelical vote, and a larger proportion of Roman Catholics voted for the former than for the latter, but still, a good part of the Catholic vote went to the latter.

This, I believe are the various parts of what constitutes the death of America, and its final demise as it has passed what some call “the tipping point,” and has entered without heeding the harbingers given to it; into judgment.

THE HARBINGER: A Startling Discovery!
Browsing the Internet on additional articles about The Harbinger, I came across the following article by someone named Sharon K. Gilbert on a web blog called PID News, where its motto is the Scripture of the watchman in Isaiah 21:6, where it says the following:
“For the Lord says to me, ‘Go station the lookout (or watchman), and let him report what he sees.’”
But what followed in the article, part of a much broader article now lost to us, was startling because it was as though one were reading a page from Pastor and Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Cahn’s book, The Harbinger. I quote the small article:
May 31, 2009 (By SUE BRADLEY/Raiders News) — /SNIP/
“The events of September 11, 2001 have been thoroughly documented. The bricks were fallen down, but the rebuilding began with hewn stone on July 4, 2004 when the granite cornerstone for the building of The Freedom Tower was set.
“The sycamore tree outside St. Paul’s Chapel had fallen, but the cedar was lowered into place on November 22, 2003. It was named, the Tree of Hope.
From The Watchmen, 911 and The Harbingers:
“The next day [when] the people returned to ground zero, they found a tree lying on the ground, pierced by the beam of a falling Tower.
“There, at Ground Zero was a sycamore tree – struck town…after the tree of Isaiah 9…a harbinger of judgment…’the sycamore has fallen’…
…and strange, eerily, the people made a display of it, not realizing what it was in the Bible… and put it on display, its roots exposed…not realizing, as if to draw more attention to the sign. And a sculptor was commissioned to make a cast of it. He poured metal into the cast: he cast it into bronze, the Biblical metal of judgment…an image of the fallen sycamore to be displayed on Wall Street.”
On the PID News Web Site appears a picture of the gnarled roots of the sycamore tree that had protected St. Paul's Chapel from being struck by the falling debris when the Twin Towers fell and a steel beam had pierced and fell the tree right out of its roots on that fateful Tuesday morning in the month of September, the eleventh day of 2001.
You may ask yourselves what possible significance does this small article (part of a larger one now lost to us) has to Rabbi Cahn’s best selling book, The Harbinger? There are four that stand immediately out to the reader, and they are the following:
1.) The host of the PID News site (Sharon Gilbert), quoting another author (Sue Bradley of Raiders News), both make the connection between the events of 9/11 and Isaiah 9:10.
2.) The author of the Raiders News article (Sue Bradley’s) titles her article The Watchmen, 911 and The Harbingers.
3.) The author makes every other connection Rabbi Cahn makes in his book, as though she had read his book from cover to cover.
4.) All of this is well and good, except that the author to this amazing article wrote her article at least two and a half years before Rabbi Cahn published his book, The Harbinger!
This is amazing! This little gem of an article was written by someone other than Pastor and Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Cahn by someone named Sharon L. Gilbert, who posted the article she wrote on June 1st, 2009, and it was quoting an earlier article written by someone named Sue Bradley who had written and posted her article the previous day, on May 31st, 2009!
What is amazing is that these two ladies, obviously students of Scripture, could make these startling connections along the same pattern as that of Rabbi Cahn which he makes in his best-seller, The Harbinger, and yet some at this late hour, do not see the connections, and even contest at great length and in the form of a published book of their own titled The Harbinger: Fact or Fiction? (author David James, commissioned by T.A. McMahon of the Berean Call). Startling. Simply startling.
And the connections are there for the serious Bible student who is willing to spend the hours and labor to find them when making a diligent study of The Harbinger, as I am have done and am currently at work in. For those who wish to see something other than what Rabbi Cahn posits in his book, it is allowed as well, because since Rabbi Cahn’s book is a work of fiction addressing a historic fact, it will lend itself to the most outrageous counter-claims by those who willfully deny any voice other than their own with regard to prophecy and eschatology, and are very jealous and zealous assuring their public following from where they obtain their support, that theirs is “the correct hermeneutic.” NOT!

God's Foreknowledge & Predetermined Plan Trumps The Harbinger's Critics
I have made the charge on David James’ site that every charge he makes and every idle word that he has made against The Harbinger and against Rabbi Jonathan Cahn he will have to give an account for, and he may think he gets away with justifying himself with me and others in his retort, but there is One before whom he will not be able to justify himself, just plead the mercy of God through the Lord Jesus our Messiah.
Hello again David. Again thank you once more for allowing me to share my post here with you and your readers. Here is another reason why you must prayerfully as a man of God and servant of Jesus Christ must reconsider what you have written in your book and in this article, as well as all other critics of The Harbinger. I address myself here not just to you, but also to them. Therefore the manner in which I write. I submit to you that you listen carefully and prayerfully reconsider what you claim is correct but is not for more reasons that I cite here and have cited, but which I am, if the Lord wills, cite indepth in a work I am currently writing in response to your book.
The critics of The Harbinger make much to do about nothing, because they believe that one must be in a covenant relationship with God for God to hear them or even to communicate with them and answer their prayers. This argument is flawed and misleading because it does not take into account the fact of God’s grace, a grace so inclusive that its work was established long before God set the foundation of the earth into place.
According to them, neither the United States or the land of north America upon which this nation was founded has had a covenant relationship with God as Israel has, and therefore any argument claiming that we as a nation – that is, the United States – are in covenant relationship with God because of the prayers of dedication and consecration made by those who settled this land centuries before which they made with God; is an invalid claim. I would have believed this claim if not for one fundamentally most important fact which all critics of The Harbinger appear to overlook; the grace of God and the good works that would follow have been established long before creation. This claim by its very nature – cleverly devilish as it is, because at first glance it appears plausible – is at its very root a patent denial of what the Scriptures teach in their totality when it comes to the work of God in human history – that is, the redemption of the crown of His creation; Man, a work which He determined to do and accomplish, and established long before all covenants came into being.
Is this affirmed by what the Scriptures teach? The answer is yes. It is affirmed by the Apostle Paul, writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in the following manner:
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and insight He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth. In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will, to the end that we who were the first to hope in Christ would be to the praise of His glory. In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory.
(Ephesians 1:3-14)
Just on the basis of predestination (Acts 4:28) all arguments which attempt to mitigate the prayers and covenants, and compacts which a people make with Almighty God, be they Jew or Gentile, slave or freeman, pilgrim or colonialist, Puritan, Baptist, Pentecostal, Charismatic, or Non-Charismatic Cessationist; all are laid to rest with the Scriptures when properly understood and applied to each and every generation and taught correctly in light of God’s predestined will and Providence.
But let us supposed that we did not have the foreknowledge and predestined Providence of God to guide our way before us; we can still make the argument from Scripture that the very premise of what The Harbinger’s critics try to make against any claims this nation has with God to be null and void, is both specious and patently inaccurate and Un-Biblical.
The charge of a wrong hermeneutic is then turned on its head against The Harbinger’s critics by the Biblical facts laid before us. Now some may still argue as will be expected, that some are predestined for wrath while others are predestined for redemption, and they are correct in making that claim. (Romans 9:10-18) Quite true, but ALL things have been, are, and will be summed up in Christ, and on that basis alone, everything is judged. But Paul does not end there, but as if to strengthen to what extent this has been, is, and will be accomplished by God; Paul includes all things in the heavens and on earth; all things, everyone. There are no exceptions, and no conditions, but Christ. (Ephesians 1:10)

Another Harbinger? America's 2012 Election - An Opinion
A friend of ours sent me a link to an article I must include here of an observation made by famous actor and singer Pat Boone which dovetails what I have written recently concerning last week’s disastrous elections results, I quote:
Surprise! We voted for God's judgment
Exclusive: Pat Boone likens presidential result to Israel getting a hoped-for king
by Pat Boone Email | Archive
Pat Boone, descendant of the legendary pioneer Daniel Boone, has been a top-selling recording artist, the star of his own hit TV series, a movie star, a Broadway headliner, and a best-selling author in a career that has spanned half a century. During the classic rock & roll era of the 1950s, he sold more records than any artist except Elvis Presley.
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
For by me (wisdom) will your days be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff … you will bear it alone.”
– Proverbs 9:10-12
Well, America went to the polls. At least 120 million or so of us did.
Over 56 million voted one way, for one direction, for one set of principles – and some 58 million voted for an entirely different set. And so the larger group takes all of us, the whole of America, in their chosen direction.
Without going into all the specifics, the lesser number voted for fiscal responsibility, limited government, respect for the Constitution and law itself, proven experience in management and success in financial matters, and adherence to time-honored, biblical values. For strong military defense, commitment to Israel and traditional families. Dull stuff like that.
The larger number (though just enough to gain dominance) enthusiastically voted for Big Brother socialist government, “redistributing the wealth,” anti-biblical values, geometric growth in national debt, a weak vacillating defense and a sapped, hamstrung military, relativistic disdain for the law and the Constitution itself, and more Marxists and socialists appointed to positions of power – including our Supreme Court – in the months ahead.
And the group most responsible for this decisive turn in our national destiny is the sizable group of eligible voters who stayed home, thereby voting for the inevitable outcome – by their absence, their laziness, their ignorance and irresponsibility
Post-election research will show, as it always does, that perhaps 50 percent of Christians and Bible-believing Jews – who could always win any election if they voted on common principle – failed to exercise their blood-bought privilege and duty to go the nearest poll and vote for righteousness. Theirs is the greatest guilt, in my view, and they will pay a price.
What “price,” you ask?
Was Nov. 6 another harbinger? Don’t miss Joseph Farah’s new documentary based on the best-selling book “The Harbinger” — “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment: Is There An Ancient Mystery That Foretells America’s Future”
From our beginning, birthed from a group of colonies by people who had little or no experience in operations of government, America was “one nation under God.” We flourished as an independent, self-reliant republic under an unprecedented Constitution that proclaimed equality and rights to life, liberty and the pursuit, not the government guarantee, of happiness.
For over 200 years, we were the most successful, admired and envied nation in world history. Unashamedly, we declared ourselves to be a Christian nation, granting security and protection to all faiths, creeds and ethnicities. Our laws demanded obedience to the laws of God – because they had proven to be the best ever conceived for creating and maintaining a healthy, productive and fair society.
We were a church- and synagogue-going nation. We quoted the Bible precepts freely and expected all citizens to voluntarily practice them. And because this worked so well and we grew so prosperous, we assumed that this way of life would just keep perpetuating itself, generation to generation. We literally took it for granted, even as more and more citizens began looking for “loopholes” and ways to cheat, to get around moral prohibitions and keep the society while breaking the moral rules that sustained it.
Politicians, trying to present themselves as “moderates,” increasingly caved in to man’s baser nature in order to keep themselves in office. The current president proclaimed himself not in favor of abortion, but by executive order funded pro-abortion advocates lavishly; as a married man himself, proclaimed his belief in marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman – and then “evolved” in his thinking to endorse same-sex “marriage.” He swore to defend the Constitution and defend our borders, then acted unconstitutionally and defended 14 million illegals, granting many full rights of citizenship.
So again, what’s the “price” we all will pay?
Let me give you an apt, explicit, biblical example. What we’ve experienced, and what we’re about to experience, isn’t new. It’s entirely predictable, and it’s just. In fact, I take you to the book of Judges, in the Bible, chapter 2.
“After that generation died, another generation grew up who did not acknowledge the Lord or remember the mighty things He had done for Israel.
“The Israelites did evil in the Lord’s sight and served the images of Baal. They abandoned the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt, worshipping the gods of the people around them.
“This made the Lord angry, so He handed them over to raiders who stole their possessions. He turned them over to their enemies all around, and they were no longer able to resist them.”
Do you see the lesson? Do you draw the parallel between God’s chosen people Israel and God’s modern-day most blessed people, America? The ancestors of both were blessed, protected and provided for – as they committed themselves to walk in His way, professing their faith in Him and looking to Him for guidance. They had every good thing, including capable leaders.
But throughout the book of Judges, God’s people rode a seesaw, now being blessed and then rebelling, turning from Him and being abandoned to the consequences of their unfaithfulness. Over and over again.
Finally, the wayward people decided they were tired of judges who demanded they each shoulder their own responsibilities – and they desired a king, who they imagined would take care of them, protect and guide them. Not God, but an earthly king.
Samuel the prophet was now old, and his sons took over as judges, but they were corrupt, greedy, accepting bribes and perverting justice. Sound like many of our elected “leaders”? So the elders of Israel confronted Samuel: “Give us a king to judge us … like all the other nations have.”
Get that? “Like all the other nations …” – i.e., we’re no longer exceptional, let us be like all the other nations. Sound familiar?
Old Samuel knew this desire was wrong and would lead the people even farther from God, into servitude, injustice and moral darkness. So he went to the Lord for guidance. But what did He say? “Do everything they say to you,” the Lord replied, “for it is Me they are rejecting, not you. They don’t want me to be their king any longer.”
From then on, for hundreds of years, the people suffered under foolish kings, many worse than the one before, still wanting their own way and forsaking the way of God who had made them great in their beginning. They ended in abject slavery, in Babylon captivity.
Don’t think that can happen to our America? Friend, our people have rejected the very same God and His way, and clamored after a king who has promised to provide, protect and lead them into a Promised Land where “everybody has everything.” So that same God must take His hand off those who have rejected Him and allow them to reap the consequences.
It’s not going to be fun.
Well, according to the Scriptures, on the testimony of two or more witnesses will something be confirmed. I would agree with Pat Boone, as does my wife, and a good many others whom we’ve discussed this with; that our nation made its decision on Tuesday, November 6th, 2012 to continue in the direction that it had taken four years previously under this president, and that this trajectory would lead this nation directly into the judgment of G-d. I stand by that conviction based upon my knowledge and reading of the Hebrew Bible – that Tanakh – and the New Testament, and the histories of Israel and America.
Tuesday’s election results broke with every expected tradition, every convention that had governed American elections for one hundred years, and even careful scientific study of trends and election results from previous elections, including scientific prognostications that had proven correct in every previous election, all except this one.
As things begin to unfold before US, and information is beginning to surface; there was more to this election than most people know, yes; even Fox News, which for all appearances, is going along with the trend. In fact, it may surprise may conservatives that it was Fox News who was the first on Election Night to call several states for Barack Obama, even before all precincts had called in their results, and it was Fox News who was the first of all of the network news who called the presidential elections for Barack Obama. Some said, too soon.
Gone unreported by Fox and everyone else if the following information which Michael Savage brought to light on his radio program the night of the elections:
“I feared the way he would rig the election, steal the election really; was through illegal aliens. I feared that – I said to you nine months ago, then at least six months ago – it’s as though my prediction is coming true. And I want to talk about it. Well, here’s a little fact for you; it came and went real quickly. This is why he’s sure he’s going to win the election. This is why he whispered to Medvedev with the closed mic, ‘When I’m reelected..’ This is why he said, ‘When I’m reelected,’ again the other day.
“Did you hear that the Obama Administration had sold the rights to processing our election results to a private company? That this critical component of a free election – the transparent tabulation of votes – will not be handled by individual precincts, but by a company for which we will have little control. Did you know about that?
“SOE, a US elections results processing company, which has handled elections results from over five hundred American jurisdictions, has typically provided prompt reporting of precinct level results, however; SOE was recently acquired by Scytl, a vote processing company based in Spain! In Spain.
“And this compromises the process enormously. Instead of producing election results traceable at the precinct level, votes will be transmitted to a central server where they will be counted. The problem is that once the votes are merged, it will be impossible to go back and check their integrity at the local level.
“It is very likely that this is the final step in Barack Obama’s corruption of the voting process. It has the promise of enabling him and his cohorts to control the outcomes of federal elections with no accountability. On top of that, it’s one more step to the formation of a global government, one of the aims of George Soros, whose puppet currently occupies the White House. Did you hear what I said? Did you think I made this up?
“Who owns Scytl, a vote processing company based in Spain? There’s not one American person on the board of directors of this company that controls the outcome of our voting. How is that possible? How could SOE, a US elections results company be permitted to a holding company in Europe? Who permitted this? How it is that our votes could be processed by a Spanish holding company? Where were the Republicans when this occurred? Why has there been no investigation by the Federal Elections Commission? Why are the American people in the dark about this? How, how do you live in a country where you don’t know if you vote is counted properly? Why is it that the Associated Press doesn’t even cover this story? I have five hundred questions, do you have even one answer? Fresno, California; David you want to call about the vote rigging the company that controls the counting of the votes – David, what do you know?
(Caller named David): “Yes sir, when I heard you ask the question, I went ahead and did some Google searches, and it turns out that the CEO of Scytl – the former CEO of Global Net - …for a major Obama contributor to his presidential campaign; apparently he contributed the maximum allowable amount to Obama’s inauguration campaign. Very interesting.
Michael Savage, “Oh, oh, I see….”
Why am I not surprised by this? I knew something about this report before the elections, but what had happened with the early voting and on the night of the elections themselves gave me cause to consider that something big, very big was amiss with this election. There were reports of Voting Machines Picking Candidates Other Than Those Selected, and not just on one location, but in many across the country. And much more. What did they do with these results, allow them to stand as is without correcting them? No reports. The stories were quickly dismissed and the voting continued. We learn also that though Top Convervatives Had Callen the Elections For Romney, Fox and others were calling them for Obama very early on, something that was unprecedented and unnecessary because only one to three percent of the votes had come in. Then there were other stories such as the one by World class journalist and editor Joseph Farah reports the following in his excellent article about the elections titled, Did voter fraud swing the election?:
Contrary to popular opinion, I am not a “conspiracy theorist.”
I live in the real world – always have. I’ve been a journalist who goes where the facts lead him all my life – unlike most of my colleagues whose “facts” are predetermined by their ideology.
I understand Barack Obama and Bill Ayers because I was one of them early in my life. I even met Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn and Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda in the old days. I admired them. If Obama had been old enough during the 1960s and 1970s, I probably would have run into him, too.
If anyone has a balanced approach to the realities of political life in America, it’s me. I’ve looked at life from both sides. I know the arguments of the other side and can still spout them before most of today’s practitioners of so-called “progressive” thought can.
I also know that the reigning ethos of this movement represented so ably today by Obama is this: “By any means necessary …” It was first articulated by Jean Paul Sartre in his play, “Dirty Hands.” But it became popularized as a slogan of the revolutionary left by Malcolm X.
What it means, in short, is that the ends justify the means. It means violence is fine in achieving a worthwhile objective. It means lying, stealing, cheating and all those other bourgeoisie “sins” are appropriate means of furthering the cause.
Is there any doubt in your mind today that this is now the reigning ethos of the Democratic Party and its various tentacles and allies?
There is no doubt in my mind.
And that’s why stealing the vote is not only an acceptable practice by these people, it is a moral imperative in their twisted worldview.
Am I suggesting that the recent presidential election was stolen through voter fraud and manipulation?
Without a doubt.
Do I have evidence?
Yes, I have plenty of anecdotal evidence to show that it was committed by one side in the election in various ways. And I am convinced that at least 5 percent of the Democratic vote can be attributed to fraud – illegal voters, illegal campaign contributions, rigged balloting, intimidation at the polls, you name it.
Here’s just some of the evidence for the skeptical:
• In September, the Columbus Dispatch in Ohio reported this sad and ugly news: “More than one out of every five registered Ohio voters is probably ineligible to vote. In two counties, the number of registered voters actually exceeds the voting-age population: Northwestern Ohio’s Wood County shows 109 registered voters for every 100 eligible, while in Lawrence County along the Ohio River it’s a mere 104 registered per 100 eligible. Another 31 counties show registrations at more than 90 percent of those eligible, a rate regarded as unrealistic by most voting experts. The national average is a little more than 70 percent. In a close presidential election where every vote might count, which ones to count might become paramount on Election Day – and in possible legal battles afterward.” The Dispatch asked Ohio’s chief elections official, Secretary of State Jon Husted, what could be done about this problem. His answer? Not enough. Nine months ago, he asked U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder for a personal meeting to discuss how to balance seemingly conflicting federal laws so he could pare Ohio’s dirty voter list without removing truly eligible voters. Holder’s office never even bothered to reply – to either Husted or the newspaper. What does that tell you? It tells me voter fraud is and was an important tactic in re-electing Holder’s boss and Democrats throughout the country. Anyway, we all know how Ohio voted.
• How about Michigan – Romney’s home state? How did Obama win such a resounding victory when the polls showed the two candidates in a virtual tie? And how is it that Obama won by 9 points while Democrats suffered a string of defeats down the entire state ballot? For instance, Republicans maintained control of both the state House and the Supreme Court, while Democrats lost three ballot propositions.
• Then, of course, there is the fine work of James O’Keefe and Project Veritas, which demonstrated, over and over again on camera, the willingness and ability of Democratic operatives to cheat and commit fraud to win elections.
• How about WND’s own investigation in which it demonstrated conclusively that the Obama campaign welcomed foreign contributions by intentionally leaving vulnerabilities in its web donation page that allowed even those using bogus names, disposable credit cards and foreign IP addresses to donate cash? The classic example was when WND staffers did just this using the name Osama bin Laden, listing his occupation as “deceased terrorist” and employer as “al-Qaida.” The contributions were accepted by the Team Obama, just as it accepted foreign contributions from the Palestinian Authority in 2008, as WND’s Aaron Klein demonstrated.
How much evidence does one need to be convinced? This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Did it make a difference in this close race?
Without question.
Is there anything we can do about it now?
Not likely.
But if we want to ensure that America has free and fair elections in the future, we better get to work. America’s political system is becoming a thugocracy.
I’m fighting back.
And you can help me in this fight.
I’m challenging the Obama campaign on the acceptance of those illegal donations. I’ve filed a Federal Elections Commission complaint at considerable cost. I have no illusions that it will be easy to challenge a sitting president within his own bureaucracy. But I’m doing it. Meanwhile, some in the press would prefer that I be charged with voter fraud for efforts to expose the system. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the Democrat machine tries something like that.
That’s why we need your help.
We’re fighting to preserve America’s freedom here – nothing less.
We’re fighting to preserve the concept of representative government – elections that actually mean something.
We’re fighting to expose what no other news agency in the world apparently has an interest in exposing – the dark underbelly of corruption, fraud and abuse in our political system.
Can you help?
I believe that the “slight majority” that voted Obama for another four years, and sealed the fate of this nation for the foreseeable future, also were to a great extent, perhaps greater than we realize and obviously wish to acknowledge or comprehend; registered and recorded by the most massive voter election fraud in the history of this republic.
That it is being allowed to stand as it is, is another example of the amoral level of corruption our society has allowed itself to live with. A nation that allows its privileged class to raid the pockets of its citizenry with impunity is a nation that is too far gone to be brought back from the brink of its own demise. The corruption is so engrained in its psych, so acceptable, the people so apathetic to its occurrence; that it is by the time it becomes public knowledge; institutionalized into the norm of its new social mores. Such a nation not only presages judgment, it demands it.
A friend recently wrote me that he is convinced that the level of fraud that occurred on Election Night was so vast, so rampant, so pervasive that it staggers the imagination. Nothing like it has been witnessed before in the annals of this nation’s history, and a good many people with a lot of wealth, influence and power, went to a lot of trouble to make sure that it’d go off without a hitch. And now the organs of the news media are adding legitimacy to it before the reports begin to stream in from all over the country and overseas.
I wrote a friend the following recently:
I have a friend who lives in Japan and we correspond, who is convinced that Obama won by the most massive voter fraud in the history of United States politics, and that he is being allowed to win – no change in the status of votes that were cast for Romney but registered Obama. I am beginning to agree with him. Obama could not have won the elections the way he did, and the only way he could’ve won was by multiple votes, stuffed ballots, machines that did not register Romney votes, or registered Romney votes for Obama, dead people voting (my late brother got a ballot in the mail for him to vote), destroyed or missing military absentee ballots (remember the ones that got destroyed on their way to the states?), and other irregularities that worked in Obama’s favor that night and the day after, and are still at play in Florida right now as I write this. This cannot be allowed to stand.
There is more at play with these elections than any other in the history of this country. How many people know that our voting machines were supplied by a Spanish company? Why? And were these machines verified fully? Why is no one investigating the irregular voting that occurred before and on Election Night? Why isn’t the Republican Party leadership spearheading an investigation into this? What about our elected representatives; where are they in all of this?
There are a million questions that can be asked by the American electorate that no one is answering, and it appears no one is interested in asking. This in itself is highly irregular. When you have so many reports of irregularity and voter fraud from so many precincts in every corner of the United States, there is much more that is going on, perhaps on a scale never seen before. The implications and ramifications of these are in themselves most bizarre, and presage something be done, because to allow things to stand as they do, will continue to encourage these same people to continue their lawlessness and the abrogation of their vote also by extension an assault on their civil and Constitutional rights. People shed blood to protect those rights, and our Founding Fathers braved the loss of everything to secure those rights for themselves and their posterity.
Recently I made the following observation to a friend of mine, wherein I also examined the manner in which this Republican Party has treated TEA Party conservatives running for office. For those who do not know, values that are counter to Judeo-Christian values are what I term in my private correspondence as Non-Biblical values, Non-Biblical points of view, Non-Biblical Worldviews, etc. Occasionally, you will find me alternating between this term and Judeo-Christian, but they are in essence the same. Now this is what I wrote to my friend:
Another phenomenon that plagued this election as it has many others is the fact that the Republican Party leadership did not come to the aid of its TEA Party Conservative candidates, but left them without funding, out to dry while their Democrat counterparts received every bit of financing and support from their national party they needed to secure a victory, and yet even with tepid or no support, many of these candidates were able to secure their victory over their liberal opponents. We can cite the most blatant example of this in the race of Congressman Allen West (R. Fla.), a highly decorated Gulf War veteran and national treasure.
The GOP itself gerrymandered Congressman West’s district to ensure a possible loss for him. Then they cut their funding of his campaign. He got not help from the GOP leadership. This is why I do not support the current GOP leadership. They are part of the New World Order – what Michael Savage calls the “check pants country club Republicans” otherwise known as RINOs (Republican In Name Only). They are the problem to that party, and this is why until we recognize this, the GOP will continue to trend towards a Non-Biblical trajectory until it and the Democrat Party become one and the same in essence and in policy.
The same Rockefeller Republicans hijacked Ronald Reagan’s campaign by forcing him to make CFR/Trilateralist George H.W. Bush his running mate (Bush had called Reaganomics Voodoo Economics). George H.W. Bush not only hijacked Ronald Reagan’s second term, but he reversed almost every policy President Reagan instituted during his first term, then during his presidency, he advanced the policies of the international megabank cartel that groomed his political career and catapulted him to the highest office in the land.
Now the same people run the Republican Party, and for the last thirty years, these same people – or rather those whom they have placed at the head of the GOP – have moved the party further to a Non-Biblical stance. Now the same talking heads, the same neoconservatives who are not the original conservatives of the Reagan Era who were Americanists in their core values; are calling for the party to move “further to the middle of the road,” which is really to move further Left and embrace Non-Biblical stances.
In journalism, you’ll know them; Bill Kristol, Norman and John Podhoretz, John McCain, Lindsay Graham, Collin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, and a good many others; but one thing they all have in common is that they share in George H.W. Bush’s and Bill Clinton’s, and Barack Obama’s vision of a New World Economic and Political Order, and at every chance they promote globalization as a means to achieve that end. These are not the classic Reagan Conservatives of the past, nor are they at their core true Americanists, and therefore their opinions much be viewed with great skepticism and be scrutinized thoroughly, because as such, they act as a Trojan Horse within the conservative movement in general and the GOP in particular. At every turn, they support so-called “conservative,” or “moderate” candidates over TEA Party candidates who are Constitutionalists, as we have consistently seen in two national elections. This alone speaks volumes.
End
Conclusion: There are many other factors that contributed to the results we witnessed on Election Night throughout the country, and the continued morass that we are seeing in the other still undecided races, such as Representative West’s, but here we have cited the most flagrant examples that unless we address and work assiduously to resolve these, the vote will be a thing of the past. At the very core, we as devout Christians and Jews – Protestants and Roman Catholics and Observant Jews – have a core Judeo-Christian ethos that we must learn to apply to the issues and topics of our day. It is what people like Dr. Michael Brown, and Dennis Prager, who are Jewish; call a shared Jewish and Christian moral core, and unless we choose candidates who reflect this moral core, we will continue to slip and slide down the road to being a third world dictatorship that was once a great nation of great people representing the very finest the world has to offer.
Surprise! We voted for God's judgment
Exclusive: Pat Boone likens presidential result to Israel getting a hoped-for king
by Pat Boone Email | Archive
Pat Boone, descendant of the legendary pioneer Daniel Boone, has been a top-selling recording artist, the star of his own hit TV series, a movie star, a Broadway headliner, and a best-selling author in a career that has spanned half a century. During the classic rock & roll era of the 1950s, he sold more records than any artist except Elvis Presley.
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
For by me (wisdom) will your days be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.
If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff … you will bear it alone.”
– Proverbs 9:10-12
Well, America went to the polls. At least 120 million or so of us did.
Over 56 million voted one way, for one direction, for one set of principles – and some 58 million voted for an entirely different set. And so the larger group takes all of us, the whole of America, in their chosen direction.
Without going into all the specifics, the lesser number voted for fiscal responsibility, limited government, respect for the Constitution and law itself, proven experience in management and success in financial matters, and adherence to time-honored, biblical values. For strong military defense, commitment to Israel and traditional families. Dull stuff like that.
The larger number (though just enough to gain dominance) enthusiastically voted for Big Brother socialist government, “redistributing the wealth,” anti-biblical values, geometric growth in national debt, a weak vacillating defense and a sapped, hamstrung military, relativistic disdain for the law and the Constitution itself, and more Marxists and socialists appointed to positions of power – including our Supreme Court – in the months ahead.
And the group most responsible for this decisive turn in our national destiny is the sizable group of eligible voters who stayed home, thereby voting for the inevitable outcome – by their absence, their laziness, their ignorance and irresponsibility
Post-election research will show, as it always does, that perhaps 50 percent of Christians and Bible-believing Jews – who could always win any election if they voted on common principle – failed to exercise their blood-bought privilege and duty to go the nearest poll and vote for righteousness. Theirs is the greatest guilt, in my view, and they will pay a price.
What “price,” you ask?
Was Nov. 6 another harbinger? Don’t miss Joseph Farah’s new documentary based on the best-selling book “The Harbinger” — “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment: Is There An Ancient Mystery That Foretells America’s Future”
From our beginning, birthed from a group of colonies by people who had little or no experience in operations of government, America was “one nation under God.” We flourished as an independent, self-reliant republic under an unprecedented Constitution that proclaimed equality and rights to life, liberty and the pursuit, not the government guarantee, of happiness.
For over 200 years, we were the most successful, admired and envied nation in world history. Unashamedly, we declared ourselves to be a Christian nation, granting security and protection to all faiths, creeds and ethnicities. Our laws demanded obedience to the laws of God – because they had proven to be the best ever conceived for creating and maintaining a healthy, productive and fair society.
We were a church- and synagogue-going nation. We quoted the Bible precepts freely and expected all citizens to voluntarily practice them. And because this worked so well and we grew so prosperous, we assumed that this way of life would just keep perpetuating itself, generation to generation. We literally took it for granted, even as more and more citizens began looking for “loopholes” and ways to cheat, to get around moral prohibitions and keep the society while breaking the moral rules that sustained it.
Politicians, trying to present themselves as “moderates,” increasingly caved in to man’s baser nature in order to keep themselves in office. The current president proclaimed himself not in favor of abortion, but by executive order funded pro-abortion advocates lavishly; as a married man himself, proclaimed his belief in marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman – and then “evolved” in his thinking to endorse same-sex “marriage.” He swore to defend the Constitution and defend our borders, then acted unconstitutionally and defended 14 million illegals, granting many full rights of citizenship.
So again, what’s the “price” we all will pay?
Let me give you an apt, explicit, biblical example. What we’ve experienced, and what we’re about to experience, isn’t new. It’s entirely predictable, and it’s just. In fact, I take you to the book of Judges, in the Bible, chapter 2.
“After that generation died, another generation grew up who did not acknowledge the Lord or remember the mighty things He had done for Israel.
“The Israelites did evil in the Lord’s sight and served the images of Baal. They abandoned the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt, worshipping the gods of the people around them.
“This made the Lord angry, so He handed them over to raiders who stole their possessions. He turned them over to their enemies all around, and they were no longer able to resist them.”
Do you see the lesson? Do you draw the parallel between God’s chosen people Israel and God’s modern-day most blessed people, America? The ancestors of both were blessed, protected and provided for – as they committed themselves to walk in His way, professing their faith in Him and looking to Him for guidance. They had every good thing, including capable leaders.
But throughout the book of Judges, God’s people rode a seesaw, now being blessed and then rebelling, turning from Him and being abandoned to the consequences of their unfaithfulness. Over and over again.
Finally, the wayward people decided they were tired of judges who demanded they each shoulder their own responsibilities – and they desired a king, who they imagined would take care of them, protect and guide them. Not God, but an earthly king.
Samuel the prophet was now old, and his sons took over as judges, but they were corrupt, greedy, accepting bribes and perverting justice. Sound like many of our elected “leaders”? So the elders of Israel confronted Samuel: “Give us a king to judge us … like all the other nations have.”
Get that? “Like all the other nations …” – i.e., we’re no longer exceptional, let us be like all the other nations. Sound familiar?
Old Samuel knew this desire was wrong and would lead the people even farther from God, into servitude, injustice and moral darkness. So he went to the Lord for guidance. But what did He say? “Do everything they say to you,” the Lord replied, “for it is Me they are rejecting, not you. They don’t want me to be their king any longer.”
From then on, for hundreds of years, the people suffered under foolish kings, many worse than the one before, still wanting their own way and forsaking the way of God who had made them great in their beginning. They ended in abject slavery, in Babylon captivity.
Don’t think that can happen to our America? Friend, our people have rejected the very same God and His way, and clamored after a king who has promised to provide, protect and lead them into a Promised Land where “everybody has everything.” So that same God must take His hand off those who have rejected Him and allow them to reap the consequences.
It’s not going to be fun.
Well, according to the Scriptures, on the testimony of two or more witnesses will something be confirmed. I would agree with Pat Boone, as does my wife, and a good many others whom we’ve discussed this with; that our nation made its decision on Tuesday, November 6th, 2012 to continue in the direction that it had taken four years previously under this president, and that this trajectory would lead this nation directly into the judgment of G-d. I stand by that conviction based upon my knowledge and reading of the Hebrew Bible – that Tanakh – and the New Testament, and the histories of Israel and America.
Tuesday’s election results broke with every expected tradition, every convention that had governed American elections for one hundred years, and even careful scientific study of trends and election results from previous elections, including scientific prognostications that had proven correct in every previous election, all except this one.
As things begin to unfold before US, and information is beginning to surface; there was more to this election than most people know, yes; even Fox News, which for all appearances, is going along with the trend. In fact, it may surprise may conservatives that it was Fox News who was the first on Election Night to call several states for Barack Obama, even before all precincts had called in their results, and it was Fox News who was the first of all of the network news who called the presidential elections for Barack Obama. Some said, too soon.
Gone unreported by Fox and everyone else if the following information which Michael Savage brought to light on his radio program the night of the elections:
“I feared the way he would rig the election, steal the election really; was through illegal aliens. I feared that – I said to you nine months ago, then at least six months ago – it’s as though my prediction is coming true. And I want to talk about it. Well, here’s a little fact for you; it came and went real quickly. This is why he’s sure he’s going to win the election. This is why he whispered to Medvedev with the closed mic, ‘When I’m reelected..’ This is why he said, ‘When I’m reelected,’ again the other day.
“Did you hear that the Obama Administration had sold the rights to processing our election results to a private company? That this critical component of a free election – the transparent tabulation of votes – will not be handled by individual precincts, but by a company for which we will have little control. Did you know about that?
“SOE, a US elections results processing company, which has handled elections results from over five hundred American jurisdictions, has typically provided prompt reporting of precinct level results, however; SOE was recently acquired by Scytl, a vote processing company based in Spain! In Spain.
“And this compromises the process enormously. Instead of producing election results traceable at the precinct level, votes will be transmitted to a central server where they will be counted. The problem is that once the votes are merged, it will be impossible to go back and check their integrity at the local level.
“It is very likely that this is the final step in Barack Obama’s corruption of the voting process. It has the promise of enabling him and his cohorts to control the outcomes of federal elections with no accountability. On top of that, it’s one more step to the formation of a global government, one of the aims of George Soros, whose puppet currently occupies the White House. Did you hear what I said? Did you think I made this up?
“Who owns Scytl, a vote processing company based in Spain? There’s not one American person on the board of directors of this company that controls the outcome of our voting. How is that possible? How could SOE, a US elections results company be permitted to a holding company in Europe? Who permitted this? How it is that our votes could be processed by a Spanish holding company? Where were the Republicans when this occurred? Why has there been no investigation by the Federal Elections Commission? Why are the American people in the dark about this? How, how do you live in a country where you don’t know if you vote is counted properly? Why is it that the Associated Press doesn’t even cover this story? I have five hundred questions, do you have even one answer? Fresno, California; David you want to call about the vote rigging the company that controls the counting of the votes – David, what do you know?
(Caller named David): “Yes sir, when I heard you ask the question, I went ahead and did some Google searches, and it turns out that the CEO of Scytl – the former CEO of Global Net - …for a major Obama contributor to his presidential campaign; apparently he contributed the maximum allowable amount to Obama’s inauguration campaign. Very interesting.
Michael Savage, “Oh, oh, I see….”
Why am I not surprised by this? I knew something about this report before the elections, but what had happened with the early voting and on the night of the elections themselves gave me cause to consider that something big, very big was amiss with this election. There were reports of Voting Machines Picking Candidates Other Than Those Selected, and not just on one location, but in many across the country. And much more. What did they do with these results, allow them to stand as is without correcting them? No reports. The stories were quickly dismissed and the voting continued. We learn also that though Top Convervatives Had Callen the Elections For Romney, Fox and others were calling them for Obama very early on, something that was unprecedented and unnecessary because only one to three percent of the votes had come in. Then there were other stories such as the one by World class journalist and editor Joseph Farah reports the following in his excellent article about the elections titled, Did voter fraud swing the election?:
Contrary to popular opinion, I am not a “conspiracy theorist.”
I live in the real world – always have. I’ve been a journalist who goes where the facts lead him all my life – unlike most of my colleagues whose “facts” are predetermined by their ideology.
I understand Barack Obama and Bill Ayers because I was one of them early in my life. I even met Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn and Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda in the old days. I admired them. If Obama had been old enough during the 1960s and 1970s, I probably would have run into him, too.
If anyone has a balanced approach to the realities of political life in America, it’s me. I’ve looked at life from both sides. I know the arguments of the other side and can still spout them before most of today’s practitioners of so-called “progressive” thought can.
I also know that the reigning ethos of this movement represented so ably today by Obama is this: “By any means necessary …” It was first articulated by Jean Paul Sartre in his play, “Dirty Hands.” But it became popularized as a slogan of the revolutionary left by Malcolm X.
What it means, in short, is that the ends justify the means. It means violence is fine in achieving a worthwhile objective. It means lying, stealing, cheating and all those other bourgeoisie “sins” are appropriate means of furthering the cause.
Is there any doubt in your mind today that this is now the reigning ethos of the Democratic Party and its various tentacles and allies?

When you have so many reports of irregularity and voter fraud from so many precincts in every corner of the United States, there is much more that is going on, perhaps on a scale never seen before. The implications and ramifications of these are in themselves most bizarre, and presage something be done, because to allow things to stand as they do, will continue to encourage these same people to continue their lawlessness and the abrogation of their vote also by extension an assault on their civil and Constitutional rights. People shed blood to protect those rights, and our Founding Fathers braved the loss of everything to secure those rights for themselves and their posterity.
Recently I made the following observation to a friend of mine, wherein I also examined the manner in which this Republican Party has treated TEA Party conservatives running for office. For those who do not know, values that are counter to Judeo-Christian values are what I term in my private correspondence as Non-Biblical values, Non-Biblical points of view, Non-Biblical Worldviews, etc. Occasionally, you will find me alternating between this term and Judeo-Christian, but they are in essence the same. Now this is what I wrote to my friend:
Another phenomenon that plagued this election as it has many others is the fact that the Republican Party leadership did not come to the aid of its TEA Party Conservative candidates, but left them without funding, out to dry while their Democrat counterparts received every bit of financing and support from their national party they needed to secure a victory, and yet even with tepid or no support, many of these candidates were able to secure their victory over their liberal opponents. We can cite the most blatant example of this in the race of Congressman Allen West (R. Fla.), a highly decorated Gulf War veteran and national treasure.
The GOP itself gerrymandered Congressman West’s district to ensure a possible loss for him. Then they cut their funding of his campaign. He got not help from the GOP leadership. This is why I do not support the current GOP leadership. They are part of the New World Order – what Michael Savage calls the “check pants country club Republicans” otherwise known as RINOs (Republican In Name Only). They are the problem to that party, and this is why until we recognize this, the GOP will continue to trend towards a Non-Biblical trajectory until it and the Democrat Party become one and the same in essence and in policy.
The same Rockefeller Republicans hijacked Ronald Reagan’s campaign by forcing him to make CFR/Trilateralist George H.W. Bush his running mate (Bush had called Reaganomics Voodoo Economics). George H.W. Bush not only hijacked Ronald Reagan’s second term, but he reversed almost every policy President Reagan instituted during his first term, then during his presidency, he advanced the policies of the international megabank cartel that groomed his political career and catapulted him to the highest office in the land.
Now the same people run the Republican Party, and for the last thirty years, these same people – or rather those whom they have placed at the head of the GOP – have moved the party further to a Non-Biblical stance. Now the same talking heads, the same neoconservatives who are not the original conservatives of the Reagan Era who were Americanists in their core values; are calling for the party to move “further to the middle of the road,” which is really to move further Left and embrace Non-Biblical stances.
In journalism, you’ll know them; Bill Kristol, Norman and John Podhoretz, John McCain, Lindsay Graham, Collin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, and a good many others; but one thing they all have in common is that they share in George H.W. Bush’s and Bill Clinton’s, and Barack Obama’s vision of a New World Economic and Political Order, and at every chance they promote globalization as a means to achieve that end. These are not the classic Reagan Conservatives of the past, nor are they at their core true Americanists, and therefore their opinions much be viewed with great skepticism and be scrutinized thoroughly, because as such, they act as a Trojan Horse within the conservative movement in general and the GOP in particular. At every turn, they support so-called “conservative,” or “moderate” candidates over TEA Party candidates who are Constitutionalists, as we have consistently seen in two national elections. This alone speaks volumes.
End
Conclusion: There are many other factors that contributed to the results we witnessed on Election Night throughout the country, and the continued morass that we are seeing in the other still undecided races, such as Representative West’s, but here we have cited the most flagrant examples that unless we address and work assiduously to resolve these, the vote will be a thing of the past. At the very core, we as devout Christians and Jews – Protestants and Roman Catholics and Observant Jews – have a core Judeo-Christian ethos that we must learn to apply to the issues and topics of our day. It is what people like Dr. Michael Brown, and Dennis Prager, who are Jewish; call a shared Jewish and Christian moral core, and unless we choose candidates who reflect this moral core, we will continue to slip and slide down the road to being a third world dictatorship that was once a great nation of great people representing the very finest the world has to offer.

AMERICA'S CHOICE IS A HARBINGER OF HER FATE & OF WHAT WILL FOLLOW
We’ve been getting bombarded on radio and on television about the political reasons why Election Night 2012 ended as it did, and why the Republican Party needs to do some house cleaning after some “soul searching” and why it must revamp as to the methods it uses to get its base out to vote on election night, some even saying that they should emulate the Democrat Machinery whose strategies and organization is the most effective in modern political history. This is all well and good.
They must reassess where they want to take their party, because it is not the party of Ronald Reagan, nor is it all inclusive, inasmuch its leadership has consistently shown a contempt for its TEA Party Conservative members, and where these have run tight races against a liberal far left of center candidate with deep pockets and big support from the DNC and other organizations; the GOP leadership has withheld its money from these conservative candidates in every election.
There is something wrong with the leadership of the Republican Party, and it is my opinion that it has to do with corruption at its highest levels. The people who run it are nothing but the same Rockefeller types that they bring out before our television sets – the Bush neocon operatives who pose as conservative moderates, and “level heads” within the party, but are nothing more than members of the globalist CFR, Trilateral Commission, and the international banking cartel that pay them. These are the people who run both parties, and their people are speaking now about “coming together” and “abandoning the extremes of both parties,” as they put it, “the DNC: the Far Left and the GOP the TEA Party conservatives.” Bunk. Don’t believe a word of it. The New World Order/Globalist types in both parties want to own you, and your elected officials, just like they own the media, academia, the arts, the entertainment industry, big farming/big agriculture, much of the leadership in our military, and many of today’s seminaries. They do not want competition and what they cannot own, they destroy by any means possible. This is the kind of people we’re dealing with in our nation and in most of Western Civilization. Their counterparts in the Middle East are the Muslim Brotherhood.
These are the same Republican neocons – you know them; Bill Crystal, Peggy Noonan, and others who in 2008 joined the chorus of leftist media pundits and DNC officials who took the waves immediately after the Republican Convention when Senator, then candidate for president, John McCain announced that his running mate would be an unknown Alaskan governor named Sarah Palin, and she emerged upon the political landscape and for a night or two, she electrified her audience as an articulate and intelligent conservative woman and independent thinker. She had barely finished speaking when the neocon pundits joined with those supposedly across the aisle in defaming her and marginalizing her. They literally “borked” her, as they have every true conservative who was not in their pockets and therefore they could not control.
But I did not write this message simply as a political analysis, although it does involve politics. I wrote this as something else; something deeper, much deeper than the surface politics which now dominates the news. No. This report is something which goes into the heart of what occurred on Election Night 2012, and is a follow up to my previous post which I made entitled “A Watchman’s Opinion” which I posted on my blog site as What Did America Choose Election Night?
On election night, as the evening wore on and the final results were coming in, and every indication was that we would be given another four years of the previous four; I resigned myself to the inevitability of what I saw and heard before me. I literally felt like Jeremiah the prophet who watched in horror the exile of his people to Babylon – it was and still is my opinion that we have lost our nation. We are now exiles within our nation. Exiles of a different type of any other; exiles of thought and conscience; exiles of faith and values; exiles of G-d, though we love and serve Him with all of our hearts, or do we? Let US examine ourselves to see if we do.
I could not understand how the Torah Codes that had appeared to indicate one thing could be so wrong in what those who read and deciphered them presented. I looked for the codes, and found the link to them, and some nights later I mentioned these to a Chassidic couple on the phone (the husband works as a Kosher Butcher at the Pathmark Deli here in my town). His wife asked me where in the Torah were these codes, and I told her that the specific codes which the person in the You Tube Video spoke are began in Deuteronomy 28:13.42 and end in Deuteronomy 28:14.22 and spans 70 characters.
According to this one study, the Torah codes indicate Mitt Romney’s first and last name, his birth date (born on the Jewish month 20th of Adar), and it includes the word PRESIDENT, which according to the narrator, indicates that Mitt Romney is presidential material. According to the report, the following was discussed:
“In the Third Video the question WHEN was addressed. In an attempt to answer this question, we looked first at 484 letter matrix. The center of this matrix was the 70 letter of the second video. To longer terms, the matrix was expanded to 3,695 letters as described above. It gave a clear indication as to when at the earliest he is destined to be the president of the USA, looked at terms relating to the winner and some of the losers, including very long terms up to 40 letters. The subject term as the center of the matrix was ‘FROM 2012.’ (Matrix location in the Bible Deuteronomy 26:12.30 and ends at Deuteronomy 28:36.57) The narrator says that the matrix was expanded in the Third Video, and it contains the following:
“There is a sign, a G-dly sign. GOP/sing, rejoice. They could. And the sign of G-d is there for me. To the elephants they will yearn & M.R. (Mitt Romney) they sing drink. The narrator claims that this is an indication that the public will “like” the Republicans in general and Mitt Romney in particular. They will celebrate their victory “by rejoicing and drinking.”
The narrator believes that there is another sign which Mitt Romney must not overlook, and he says it is presented in Genesis 6:4, where it says the following:
The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came into the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men of old; the men of renown. (Genesis 6:4) The narrator says that using the title of the Master of the Universe, represented men of renown “see below,” referring to the Scripture and the location of the Hebrew characters which form the code, and he claims that “it could mean that the title of ruler is implied here.” The narrator says that he believes we have the other meaning of sign. Meaning that there is a sign that Mitt Romney must follow the Master of the Universe’s way. The narrator claims that G-d (the Master of the universe) is promising a win. He says, “The Master of the universe is expecting that we follow His way.”
The narrator says the previous video indicated that Mitt Romney was already getting good marks by the matrix. He says, “However, one must always guard against temptation. One must be careful not to go after the heart, but rather follow the Master of the universe’s signs that lead us along the proper path. We shall see later how the matrix specifically addresses Mitt Romney in this regard.”
On the screen one can read, “The Hebrew words here have the same meaning but are spelled slightly different. They are both spelled correctly and are found in the Bible. There are many such words that at times they are spelled with the middle letter vav or without. Similarly they may be spelled with a yud or without. In our case the middle letter in the right word is the vowel ‘a full cholam’ (power to forgive - JB) while the dot in the left in the middle “is missing cholam.’ The pronunciation of both version of the word is identical and sound like ‘O’, in the national anthem ‘O Canada.’ This is also to explain why we use the letter vav in the acronym for GOP.”
The narrator says, “They all include the sign term.” “And the year 5773 (2012/13) for a sign.” The narrator says that there is the sharing of the letter SHIN, and in another case the same sharing of the letter, this time the TAV. There is the sharing of the same letters by the three terms. “Advice and encouragement to the winner.”
The narrator says that although Mitt Romney had been given the phrase “the man” and “perfect,” “he is still given advice and encouragement in this latest term.” The codes have the following, “from the year 5773 (2012), and can be read either as “Come winner” or “Go THE winner.” Come winner. However, recognize G-d!’ The second version has it, “Go for it the winner, However Recognize G-d!’
The following appears in the narration:
“We have seen the terms ‘from 5772 & ‘and 5773’……. Relating to Mitt Romney becoming the president. Here we have another unique look at these terms and the terms joining them by sharing letters. We must remember that the presidential campaign took place on both those years. You are about to see two similar sentences with similar sentence structure, sequence, and use of words relating to the two year terms. We will first have a look at the final result and then develop the sentences in the matrix.”
This is what appears in the matrix:
“’From the efforts of campaigning in the year 5772 Mitt will get the title as a present. And from efforts on 5773, for a Mormon the title a present.’” The first term is derived from the top of the matrix, and the second from the bottom. The narrative in the matrix appears in the following way:
“From a president, Oh, Mitt has the title. From the year 5772. For me for a PRESENT the step. Sharing the letters will combine the three terms to give one message.” In the video presentation, the red circles show the shared letters. Note also that each of the two horizontal terms has equal letters on either side of the vertical term.”
Putting these terms together it presents the following message, according to the narrator:
From 5772 From a president (becoming president) MITT HAS THE TITLE. FOR ME, (Mitt Romney) THE STEP (to be a president) IS A PRESENT.”
The video presentation shows the overlapping terms that indicate a Mormon relates to the title president. It shows that the two share a common text in verse 36. Mitt Romney is the only Mormon seeking the office of president. Here is how it appears: “And the year 5773 for a TITLE. (17 September 2012 – 4 September 2013)” Based on the two overlapping terms in the matrix, the second message, according to the narrator is: “And year 5773 for a ‘TITLE’ a Mormon’s present.”
The summary of the Torah codes, according to the narrator, indicated that Mitt Romney would be the next president. The reasons for this are listed in the video and I recommend that all of those who are interested in viewing go to the following link Mitt Romney president in the codes.wmv and watch their video for themselves.
The other video link to watch is Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama for president בחירות ארצות הברית 2012.wmv
According to the narrator (Moshe Aharon Ashak) he believes that the codes indicated that Mitt Romney would be the next president because they say: “Republican Rejoice Mitt Romney is for Him for president in 2012.”
Now I’m not one who gives much stock to what people call the Bible Codes. I only mention it here anecdotally as a sidebare to the topic of the presidential elections, and because of what I learned from my Chassidic friends afterwards, which I mention here. I do not know enough about it to make a judgment call either way concerning it, but I am skeptical of it, because I do not know the means by which those who use them gather their information from them. I cite them here, because they are interesting to show some striking parallels with regard to Biblical History and what is now occurring in and happening to America as it unfolds right before our eyes.
Where were G-d’s people in Tuesday’s elections? Where were the Christians and Observant Jews in this vote? What happened with the Catholic vote? Where did the Evangelical vote go? What about the Observant Jewish vote? What happened? Where were those watchmen and women who could stand upon the walls of our great nation and sound the alarm to others as they saw impending danger in the direction this nation was headed? Where were those who were to be a light to their communities, shining cities upon a hill filled with G-d’s people being a light unto others? Where was G-d’s people in the mix?
I’ll tell you where they were; they were where they had been four years ago, and in previous years right down to the present. Some were “conflicted” as to whom to vote for. Others would not vote for one or the other, because they would not cast a vote for someone who did not share in their faith, and of course since their faith was so pure, no one deserved either their consideration and therefore their vote – not stopping to consider that they were not voting for a church or synagogue leader, or elder, but a public servant in the service of their community, their state, and their country to represent the people and the interests of their nation.
Others simply chose not to vote, because they “don’t get involved in politics and its corruption, but are too involved in serving G-d,” as they put to vote. And it goes on and on, and on. “Conflicted” as to who to vote for? Not casting your vote because neither of the two candidates measured up to your standards of Biblical integrity? Come on, this should’ve been a “no brainer.” As a brother in my congregation expressed it – and he’s Jewish, so I know he was referring here to all of G-d’s people – Jews and Christians – “You can either vote for a man who claims to be a Christian but does not hold Christian values, or vote for a man who is not a Christian who does hold Christian values. People, what is so hard about that!? Below is the scientific breakdown of this vote from the Pew Research Center:
“At the other end of the political spectrum, nearly eight-in-ten white evangelical Protestants voted for Romney (79%), compared with 20% who backed Obama. Romney received as much support from evangelical voters as George W. Bush did in 2004 (79%) and more support from evangelicals than McCain did in 2008 (73%). Mormon voters were also firmly in Romney’s corner; nearly eight-in-ten Mormons (78%) voted for Romney, while 21% voted for Obama. Romney received about the same amount of support from Mormons that Bush received in 2004. (Exit poll data on Mormons was unavailable for 2000 and 2008.)
“Compared with religiously unaffiliated and Jewish voters on the left and white evangelicals and Mormons on the right, Catholics and white mainline Protestants were more evenly divided. Among white mainline Protestants in the exit poll, 54% voted for Romney, while 44% supported Obama. This is virtually identical to the 2008 election, when 55% of white mainline Protestants voted for McCain and 44% backed Obama.
“White Catholics, by contrast, swung strongly in the Republican direction relative to 2008. Nearly six-in-ten white Catholics (59%) voted for Romney, up from 52% who voted for McCain in 2008. Three-quarters of Hispanic Catholics voted for Obama, and Catholics as a whole were evenly divided in 2012 (50% voted for Obama, while 48% backed Romney).”
From an online article titled: How the Faithful Voted: 2012 Preliminary Analysis
The result was that not enough of G-d’s people voted to make a difference, and half of those who did voted for the one who claims to be a Christian but whose values, public statements, and government policies reflect and support and promote an Anti-Biblical, that is; a value system that is diametrically opposed to the Judeo-Christian values that established this nation and made it grow in the great nation we once knew it was. We are told by statisticians that had the losing side gotten just 3 million votes more – 3 million people who chose to sit this one out again among these groups – the nation would’ve been spared what is about to unfold and avert impending judgment.
When I woke up the next morning, I recalled how the prophet Samuel felt when Israel petitioned to be given a king like the heathen and pagan nations around them. We read the text from the Hebrew Bible:
Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah; and they said to him, “Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations.” But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Samuel prayed to the Lord. The Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them. Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day—in that they have forsaken Me and served other gods—so they are doing to you also. Now then, listen to their voice; however, you shall solemnly warn them and tell them of the procedure of the king who will reign over them.”
1Samuel 8:4-9
And we know the story, Samuel anointed Saul king over Israel, but before he did, the prophet gave Israel this strong warning:
So Samuel spoke all the words of the Lord to the people who had asked of him a king. He said, “This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and place them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots. He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will also take your daughters for perfumers and cooks and bakers. He will take the best of your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves and give them to his servants. He will take a tenth of your seed and of your vineyards and give to his officers and to his servants. He will also take your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys and use them for his work. He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants. Then you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.”
Nevertheless, the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel, and they said, “No, but there shall be a king over us, that we also may be like all the nations, that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles.” Now after Samuel had heard all the words of the people, he repeated them in the Lord’s hearing. The Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to their voice and appoint them a king.” So Samuel said to the men of Israel, “Go every man to his city.”
1Samuel 8:10-22
The American electorate has made its choice. It will now receive precisely what it has chosen for itself, even more so than they wished. Remember what I write here, and what I say. It will come to pass and everyone who reads this will witness it for themselves. May He who sees into our hearts have mercy on those of US who did not make this choice and acted with our votes rather than sit back in apathy to await the rapture without rendering unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and to G-d what is G-d’s by fulfilling our civic and religious duties to our nation and our G-d.
I am also reminded this morning of the Scripture in Ezekiel 22:30, where G-d is speaking about ancient Israel and how she had degenerated, where He speaks the following words, “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one,” but the entire passage really should be examined, because one could say it speaks of two nations that were blessed by G-d, two nations whose laws at one time had a common foundation – the Holy Bible – two nations that had become the haven for G-d’s people to keep them and all others from persecution and injustice – two unique nations in the annals of history: Israel and the United States of America. Here is the entire passage of Ezekiel. Tell me if it does not speak of the degenerate condition we find ourselves today, and what more than half of the voting public of this nation chose for themselves for the foreseeable future. Where G-d refers to Israel consider it says also America, because the conditions are identical, and if G-d who is just brought Israel to bare for its sins, how can America escape His justice?
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “And you, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations. You shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “A city shedding blood in her midst, so that her time will come, and that makes idols, contrary to her interest, for defilement! You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and defiled by your idols which you have made. Thus you have brought your day near and have come to your years; therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations and a mocking to all the lands. Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you of ill repute, full of turmoil.
“Behold, the rulers of Israel, each according to his power, have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood. They have treated father and mother lightly within you. The alien they have oppressed in your midst; the fatherless and the widow they have wronged in you. You have despised My holy things and profaned My Sabbaths. Slanderous men have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood, and in you they have eaten at the mountain shrines. In your midst they have committed acts of lewdness. In you they have uncovered their fathers’ nakedness; in you they have humbled her who was unclean in her menstrual impurity. One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. And another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter. In you they have taken bribes to shed blood; you have taken interest and profits, and you have injured your neighbors for gain by oppression, and you have forgotten Me,” declares the Lord God.
“Behold, then, I smite My hand at your dishonest gain which you have acquired and at the bloodshed which is among you. Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong in the days that I will deal with you? I, the Lord, have spoken and will act. I will scatter you among the nations and I will disperse you through the lands, and I will consume your uncleanness from you. You will profane yourself in the sight of the nations, and you will know that I am the Lord.”’”
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are the dross of silver. Therefore, thus says the Lord God, ‘Because all of you have become dross, therefore, behold, I am going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. As they gather silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into the furnace to blow fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in My anger and in My wrath and I will lay you there and melt you. I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be melted in the midst of it. As silver is melted in the furnace, so you will be melted in the midst of it; and you will know that I, the Lord, have poured out My wrath on you.’”
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, say to her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed or rained on in the day of indignation.’ There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst like a roaring lion tearing the prey. They have devoured lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in the midst of her. Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes within her are like wolves tearing the prey, by shedding blood and destroying lives in order to get dishonest gain. Her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord has not spoken. The people of the land have practiced oppression and committed robbery, and they have wronged the poor and needy and have oppressed the sojourner without justice. I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found [no one. Thus I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; their way I have brought upon their heads,” declares the Lord God.
Who among US, even the most Literalist/Minimalist/Cessationists/Dispensationist; can say that this does not apply to this country and this people – America and the United States of America, the nation that inhabits its continent with its forty-eight contiguous states, along with Alaska and Hawaii? Why do the Biblical standards of one not apply to the other, since time immemorial these standards have judged the nations and rulers of the earth, as we read in our Bibles, regardless of theology?
Fact is, what was right before G-d in ages past and what was wrong before G-d in ages past has not changed one bit. G-d does not change. He is unchangeable. His ways are unchangeable. His standards are unchangeable. One does not have to be religious to understand that what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. The standards of G-d’s commandments are as true today as they were when G-d gave them to Israel, otherwise the same G-d who requires of His people not to have differing weights and differing measures, would Himself have differing weights and differing measures as to His standards for the nations. The Lord G-d is not a G-d of differing weights and differing measures. G-d is One and His standards are one. He cannot be changed, they cannot be changed. Indeed His Word says of Him the following; from the Torah first:
For the Lord your God is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God who does not show partiality nor take a bribe.
Deuteronomy 10:17
And in the New Testament we read the following observation that Shimon Petra, who was Jewish; made when visiting a righteous Gentile named Cornelius, a Roman Centurion no less:
Opening his mouth, Shimon/Peter said:
“I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.”
Acts 10:34-35
So you see, the standards of G-d are universal. Morality is morality regardless of what people say or think it is either here or in Timbuktu, and immorality is immorality regardless of what people say or think either here or Katmandu. G-d’s standard holds regardless of locale, nation, religious upbringing, ethnicity, or race. He is universal and His ways are universal; they apply equally to all. An interesting article from a Christian perspective is the one titled "GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS." I recommend everyone who reads this go to the link take the time to read the well-written article. Regardless of one’s faith, it makes some very good points as to how G-d welcomes everyone to know Him, because He looks at the heart; just as He told Samuel the prophet when He chose David as King over Israel, having rejected Saul for his disobedience:
But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him (Saul); for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
1Samuel 16:7
G-d does not look at the superficialities that human beings get caught up in. He sees into the heart of every person, and it is from there that He knows one from another.
It is interesting to note, as I mentioned above, I had been speaking to the wife of a Kosher butcher I know who works at Pathmark; a Chassidic couple, and when I told them where these codes are located pertaining to the elections (according to the narrator of the You Tube video named Mitt Romney president in the codes.wmv , they looked up the Parashah (Biblical reading portion from the Torah for the day, Parashot is the plural form of this word for those who do not know.) for these codes, and read it out loud in Hebrew, and it is where G-d has given Israel His Law.
As Moses stood before Israel, he warned them that they had two paths to choose before them – the path of life and blessing, and obedience to G-d’s commandments, or the path of disobedience resulting in death and cursing and exile. The choice was theirs to make, and it would fall to each succeeding generation.
The specific Scripture verses were 12 through14, and 36; where it says the following, and it speaks volumes, almost describing where America finds itself today, “The Lord will open for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow,” and “The Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you only will be above, and you will not be underneath, if you listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I charge you today, to observe them carefully, and do not turn aside from any of the words which I command you today, to the right or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them,” and “The Lord will bring you and your king, whom you set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone.”
I strongly suggest to those reading this post, that they open their Bibles and read the entire 28th chapter of Deuteronomy for themselves and understand what is at play here. The people of ancient Israel were given a choice between good and evil, they made their choices and we know the history. It is one that breaks my heart to its very core every time I read it, and it applies to this very day, and will do so until Messiah’s coming/return (regardless of how one views who He is, He will come.) America too, had a choice between two world views and chose one over the other; and now it will receive precisely what it chose for itself. They don’t have G-d to blame for what’s coming; they only have themselves to blame.
Almost in closing; did anybody miss what occurred just prior to the elections and what came right on its heels? At the end of the tenth month (October 28th to 30th Hebrew month Cheshvan 12th to 14th, and the days which followed,) the east coast, predominantly the blue states that voted overwhelmingly for Obama were slammed with the most devastating and unique storm in 100 years? Hurricane Sandy before the elections and Athena, the Nor’easter that followed. Doesn’t anybody get it? Connect the dots folks. It wasn’t G-d’s fault; He gave US a free will and we made our choices, and we chose for ourselves our current leader and everything that will come with him for the next four years. Prepare and brace yourselves. It will not be pretty.
I leave you here with the following quote from an unknown author, because it captures in a brief single sentence, everything that I have written in this article and the essence of my wife’s observations on Election Night as we went to bed. I quote:
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

They must reassess where they want to take their party, because it is not the party of Ronald Reagan, nor is it all inclusive, inasmuch its leadership has consistently shown a contempt for its TEA Party Conservative members, and where these have run tight races against a liberal far left of center candidate with deep pockets and big support from the DNC and other organizations; the GOP leadership has withheld its money from these conservative candidates in every election.
There is something wrong with the leadership of the Republican Party, and it is my opinion that it has to do with corruption at its highest levels. The people who run it are nothing but the same Rockefeller types that they bring out before our television sets – the Bush neocon operatives who pose as conservative moderates, and “level heads” within the party, but are nothing more than members of the globalist CFR, Trilateral Commission, and the international banking cartel that pay them. These are the people who run both parties, and their people are speaking now about “coming together” and “abandoning the extremes of both parties,” as they put it, “the DNC: the Far Left and the GOP the TEA Party conservatives.” Bunk. Don’t believe a word of it. The New World Order/Globalist types in both parties want to own you, and your elected officials, just like they own the media, academia, the arts, the entertainment industry, big farming/big agriculture, much of the leadership in our military, and many of today’s seminaries. They do not want competition and what they cannot own, they destroy by any means possible. This is the kind of people we’re dealing with in our nation and in most of Western Civilization. Their counterparts in the Middle East are the Muslim Brotherhood.
These are the same Republican neocons – you know them; Bill Crystal, Peggy Noonan, and others who in 2008 joined the chorus of leftist media pundits and DNC officials who took the waves immediately after the Republican Convention when Senator, then candidate for president, John McCain announced that his running mate would be an unknown Alaskan governor named Sarah Palin, and she emerged upon the political landscape and for a night or two, she electrified her audience as an articulate and intelligent conservative woman and independent thinker. She had barely finished speaking when the neocon pundits joined with those supposedly across the aisle in defaming her and marginalizing her. They literally “borked” her, as they have every true conservative who was not in their pockets and therefore they could not control.
But I did not write this message simply as a political analysis, although it does involve politics. I wrote this as something else; something deeper, much deeper than the surface politics which now dominates the news. No. This report is something which goes into the heart of what occurred on Election Night 2012, and is a follow up to my previous post which I made entitled “A Watchman’s Opinion” which I posted on my blog site as What Did America Choose Election Night?
On election night, as the evening wore on and the final results were coming in, and every indication was that we would be given another four years of the previous four; I resigned myself to the inevitability of what I saw and heard before me. I literally felt like Jeremiah the prophet who watched in horror the exile of his people to Babylon – it was and still is my opinion that we have lost our nation. We are now exiles within our nation. Exiles of a different type of any other; exiles of thought and conscience; exiles of faith and values; exiles of G-d, though we love and serve Him with all of our hearts, or do we? Let US examine ourselves to see if we do.
I could not understand how the Torah Codes that had appeared to indicate one thing could be so wrong in what those who read and deciphered them presented. I looked for the codes, and found the link to them, and some nights later I mentioned these to a Chassidic couple on the phone (the husband works as a Kosher Butcher at the Pathmark Deli here in my town). His wife asked me where in the Torah were these codes, and I told her that the specific codes which the person in the You Tube Video spoke are began in Deuteronomy 28:13.42 and end in Deuteronomy 28:14.22 and spans 70 characters.
According to this one study, the Torah codes indicate Mitt Romney’s first and last name, his birth date (born on the Jewish month 20th of Adar), and it includes the word PRESIDENT, which according to the narrator, indicates that Mitt Romney is presidential material. According to the report, the following was discussed:
“In the Third Video the question WHEN was addressed. In an attempt to answer this question, we looked first at 484 letter matrix. The center of this matrix was the 70 letter of the second video. To longer terms, the matrix was expanded to 3,695 letters as described above. It gave a clear indication as to when at the earliest he is destined to be the president of the USA, looked at terms relating to the winner and some of the losers, including very long terms up to 40 letters. The subject term as the center of the matrix was ‘FROM 2012.’ (Matrix location in the Bible Deuteronomy 26:12.30 and ends at Deuteronomy 28:36.57) The narrator says that the matrix was expanded in the Third Video, and it contains the following:
“There is a sign, a G-dly sign. GOP/sing, rejoice. They could. And the sign of G-d is there for me. To the elephants they will yearn & M.R. (Mitt Romney) they sing drink. The narrator claims that this is an indication that the public will “like” the Republicans in general and Mitt Romney in particular. They will celebrate their victory “by rejoicing and drinking.”
The narrator believes that there is another sign which Mitt Romney must not overlook, and he says it is presented in Genesis 6:4, where it says the following:
The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came into the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men of old; the men of renown. (Genesis 6:4) The narrator says that using the title of the Master of the Universe, represented men of renown “see below,” referring to the Scripture and the location of the Hebrew characters which form the code, and he claims that “it could mean that the title of ruler is implied here.” The narrator says that he believes we have the other meaning of sign. Meaning that there is a sign that Mitt Romney must follow the Master of the Universe’s way. The narrator claims that G-d (the Master of the universe) is promising a win. He says, “The Master of the universe is expecting that we follow His way.”
The narrator says the previous video indicated that Mitt Romney was already getting good marks by the matrix. He says, “However, one must always guard against temptation. One must be careful not to go after the heart, but rather follow the Master of the universe’s signs that lead us along the proper path. We shall see later how the matrix specifically addresses Mitt Romney in this regard.”
On the screen one can read, “The Hebrew words here have the same meaning but are spelled slightly different. They are both spelled correctly and are found in the Bible. There are many such words that at times they are spelled with the middle letter vav or without. Similarly they may be spelled with a yud or without. In our case the middle letter in the right word is the vowel ‘a full cholam’ (power to forgive - JB) while the dot in the left in the middle “is missing cholam.’ The pronunciation of both version of the word is identical and sound like ‘O’, in the national anthem ‘O Canada.’ This is also to explain why we use the letter vav in the acronym for GOP.”
The narrator says, “They all include the sign term.” “And the year 5773 (2012/13) for a sign.” The narrator says that there is the sharing of the letter SHIN, and in another case the same sharing of the letter, this time the TAV. There is the sharing of the same letters by the three terms. “Advice and encouragement to the winner.”
The narrator says that although Mitt Romney had been given the phrase “the man” and “perfect,” “he is still given advice and encouragement in this latest term.” The codes have the following, “from the year 5773 (2012), and can be read either as “Come winner” or “Go THE winner.” Come winner. However, recognize G-d!’ The second version has it, “Go for it the winner, However Recognize G-d!’
The following appears in the narration:
“We have seen the terms ‘from 5772 & ‘and 5773’……. Relating to Mitt Romney becoming the president. Here we have another unique look at these terms and the terms joining them by sharing letters. We must remember that the presidential campaign took place on both those years. You are about to see two similar sentences with similar sentence structure, sequence, and use of words relating to the two year terms. We will first have a look at the final result and then develop the sentences in the matrix.”
This is what appears in the matrix:
“’From the efforts of campaigning in the year 5772 Mitt will get the title as a present. And from efforts on 5773, for a Mormon the title a present.’” The first term is derived from the top of the matrix, and the second from the bottom. The narrative in the matrix appears in the following way:
“From a president, Oh, Mitt has the title. From the year 5772. For me for a PRESENT the step. Sharing the letters will combine the three terms to give one message.” In the video presentation, the red circles show the shared letters. Note also that each of the two horizontal terms has equal letters on either side of the vertical term.”
Putting these terms together it presents the following message, according to the narrator:
From 5772 From a president (becoming president) MITT HAS THE TITLE. FOR ME, (Mitt Romney) THE STEP (to be a president) IS A PRESENT.”
The video presentation shows the overlapping terms that indicate a Mormon relates to the title president. It shows that the two share a common text in verse 36. Mitt Romney is the only Mormon seeking the office of president. Here is how it appears: “And the year 5773 for a TITLE. (17 September 2012 – 4 September 2013)” Based on the two overlapping terms in the matrix, the second message, according to the narrator is: “And year 5773 for a ‘TITLE’ a Mormon’s present.”
The summary of the Torah codes, according to the narrator, indicated that Mitt Romney would be the next president. The reasons for this are listed in the video and I recommend that all of those who are interested in viewing go to the following link Mitt Romney president in the codes.wmv and watch their video for themselves.
The other video link to watch is Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama for president בחירות ארצות הברית 2012.wmv
According to the narrator (Moshe Aharon Ashak) he believes that the codes indicated that Mitt Romney would be the next president because they say: “Republican Rejoice Mitt Romney is for Him for president in 2012.”
Now I’m not one who gives much stock to what people call the Bible Codes. I only mention it here anecdotally as a sidebare to the topic of the presidential elections, and because of what I learned from my Chassidic friends afterwards, which I mention here. I do not know enough about it to make a judgment call either way concerning it, but I am skeptical of it, because I do not know the means by which those who use them gather their information from them. I cite them here, because they are interesting to show some striking parallels with regard to Biblical History and what is now occurring in and happening to America as it unfolds right before our eyes.
Where were G-d’s people in Tuesday’s elections? Where were the Christians and Observant Jews in this vote? What happened with the Catholic vote? Where did the Evangelical vote go? What about the Observant Jewish vote? What happened? Where were those watchmen and women who could stand upon the walls of our great nation and sound the alarm to others as they saw impending danger in the direction this nation was headed? Where were those who were to be a light to their communities, shining cities upon a hill filled with G-d’s people being a light unto others? Where was G-d’s people in the mix?
I’ll tell you where they were; they were where they had been four years ago, and in previous years right down to the present. Some were “conflicted” as to whom to vote for. Others would not vote for one or the other, because they would not cast a vote for someone who did not share in their faith, and of course since their faith was so pure, no one deserved either their consideration and therefore their vote – not stopping to consider that they were not voting for a church or synagogue leader, or elder, but a public servant in the service of their community, their state, and their country to represent the people and the interests of their nation.
Others simply chose not to vote, because they “don’t get involved in politics and its corruption, but are too involved in serving G-d,” as they put to vote. And it goes on and on, and on. “Conflicted” as to who to vote for? Not casting your vote because neither of the two candidates measured up to your standards of Biblical integrity? Come on, this should’ve been a “no brainer.” As a brother in my congregation expressed it – and he’s Jewish, so I know he was referring here to all of G-d’s people – Jews and Christians – “You can either vote for a man who claims to be a Christian but does not hold Christian values, or vote for a man who is not a Christian who does hold Christian values. People, what is so hard about that!? Below is the scientific breakdown of this vote from the Pew Research Center:
“At the other end of the political spectrum, nearly eight-in-ten white evangelical Protestants voted for Romney (79%), compared with 20% who backed Obama. Romney received as much support from evangelical voters as George W. Bush did in 2004 (79%) and more support from evangelicals than McCain did in 2008 (73%). Mormon voters were also firmly in Romney’s corner; nearly eight-in-ten Mormons (78%) voted for Romney, while 21% voted for Obama. Romney received about the same amount of support from Mormons that Bush received in 2004. (Exit poll data on Mormons was unavailable for 2000 and 2008.)
“Compared with religiously unaffiliated and Jewish voters on the left and white evangelicals and Mormons on the right, Catholics and white mainline Protestants were more evenly divided. Among white mainline Protestants in the exit poll, 54% voted for Romney, while 44% supported Obama. This is virtually identical to the 2008 election, when 55% of white mainline Protestants voted for McCain and 44% backed Obama.
“White Catholics, by contrast, swung strongly in the Republican direction relative to 2008. Nearly six-in-ten white Catholics (59%) voted for Romney, up from 52% who voted for McCain in 2008. Three-quarters of Hispanic Catholics voted for Obama, and Catholics as a whole were evenly divided in 2012 (50% voted for Obama, while 48% backed Romney).”
From an online article titled: How the Faithful Voted: 2012 Preliminary Analysis
The result was that not enough of G-d’s people voted to make a difference, and half of those who did voted for the one who claims to be a Christian but whose values, public statements, and government policies reflect and support and promote an Anti-Biblical, that is; a value system that is diametrically opposed to the Judeo-Christian values that established this nation and made it grow in the great nation we once knew it was. We are told by statisticians that had the losing side gotten just 3 million votes more – 3 million people who chose to sit this one out again among these groups – the nation would’ve been spared what is about to unfold and avert impending judgment.
When I woke up the next morning, I recalled how the prophet Samuel felt when Israel petitioned to be given a king like the heathen and pagan nations around them. We read the text from the Hebrew Bible:
Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah; and they said to him, “Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations.” But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Samuel prayed to the Lord. The Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them. Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day—in that they have forsaken Me and served other gods—so they are doing to you also. Now then, listen to their voice; however, you shall solemnly warn them and tell them of the procedure of the king who will reign over them.”
1Samuel 8:4-9
And we know the story, Samuel anointed Saul king over Israel, but before he did, the prophet gave Israel this strong warning:
So Samuel spoke all the words of the Lord to the people who had asked of him a king. He said, “This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and place them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots. He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will also take your daughters for perfumers and cooks and bakers. He will take the best of your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves and give them to his servants. He will take a tenth of your seed and of your vineyards and give to his officers and to his servants. He will also take your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys and use them for his work. He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants. Then you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.”
Nevertheless, the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel, and they said, “No, but there shall be a king over us, that we also may be like all the nations, that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles.” Now after Samuel had heard all the words of the people, he repeated them in the Lord’s hearing. The Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to their voice and appoint them a king.” So Samuel said to the men of Israel, “Go every man to his city.”
1Samuel 8:10-22
The American electorate has made its choice. It will now receive precisely what it has chosen for itself, even more so than they wished. Remember what I write here, and what I say. It will come to pass and everyone who reads this will witness it for themselves. May He who sees into our hearts have mercy on those of US who did not make this choice and acted with our votes rather than sit back in apathy to await the rapture without rendering unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and to G-d what is G-d’s by fulfilling our civic and religious duties to our nation and our G-d.
I am also reminded this morning of the Scripture in Ezekiel 22:30, where G-d is speaking about ancient Israel and how she had degenerated, where He speaks the following words, “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one,” but the entire passage really should be examined, because one could say it speaks of two nations that were blessed by G-d, two nations whose laws at one time had a common foundation – the Holy Bible – two nations that had become the haven for G-d’s people to keep them and all others from persecution and injustice – two unique nations in the annals of history: Israel and the United States of America. Here is the entire passage of Ezekiel. Tell me if it does not speak of the degenerate condition we find ourselves today, and what more than half of the voting public of this nation chose for themselves for the foreseeable future. Where G-d refers to Israel consider it says also America, because the conditions are identical, and if G-d who is just brought Israel to bare for its sins, how can America escape His justice?
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “And you, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations. You shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “A city shedding blood in her midst, so that her time will come, and that makes idols, contrary to her interest, for defilement! You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and defiled by your idols which you have made. Thus you have brought your day near and have come to your years; therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations and a mocking to all the lands. Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you of ill repute, full of turmoil.
“Behold, the rulers of Israel, each according to his power, have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood. They have treated father and mother lightly within you. The alien they have oppressed in your midst; the fatherless and the widow they have wronged in you. You have despised My holy things and profaned My Sabbaths. Slanderous men have been in you for the purpose of shedding blood, and in you they have eaten at the mountain shrines. In your midst they have committed acts of lewdness. In you they have uncovered their fathers’ nakedness; in you they have humbled her who was unclean in her menstrual impurity. One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. And another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter. In you they have taken bribes to shed blood; you have taken interest and profits, and you have injured your neighbors for gain by oppression, and you have forgotten Me,” declares the Lord God.
“Behold, then, I smite My hand at your dishonest gain which you have acquired and at the bloodshed which is among you. Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong in the days that I will deal with you? I, the Lord, have spoken and will act. I will scatter you among the nations and I will disperse you through the lands, and I will consume your uncleanness from you. You will profane yourself in the sight of the nations, and you will know that I am the Lord.”’”
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are the dross of silver. Therefore, thus says the Lord God, ‘Because all of you have become dross, therefore, behold, I am going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. As they gather silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into the furnace to blow fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in My anger and in My wrath and I will lay you there and melt you. I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be melted in the midst of it. As silver is melted in the furnace, so you will be melted in the midst of it; and you will know that I, the Lord, have poured out My wrath on you.’”
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, say to her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed or rained on in the day of indignation.’ There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst like a roaring lion tearing the prey. They have devoured lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in the midst of her. Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes within her are like wolves tearing the prey, by shedding blood and destroying lives in order to get dishonest gain. Her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord has not spoken. The people of the land have practiced oppression and committed robbery, and they have wronged the poor and needy and have oppressed the sojourner without justice. I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found [no one. Thus I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; their way I have brought upon their heads,” declares the Lord God.
Who among US, even the most Literalist/Minimalist/Cessationists/Dispensationist; can say that this does not apply to this country and this people – America and the United States of America, the nation that inhabits its continent with its forty-eight contiguous states, along with Alaska and Hawaii? Why do the Biblical standards of one not apply to the other, since time immemorial these standards have judged the nations and rulers of the earth, as we read in our Bibles, regardless of theology?
Fact is, what was right before G-d in ages past and what was wrong before G-d in ages past has not changed one bit. G-d does not change. He is unchangeable. His ways are unchangeable. His standards are unchangeable. One does not have to be religious to understand that what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. The standards of G-d’s commandments are as true today as they were when G-d gave them to Israel, otherwise the same G-d who requires of His people not to have differing weights and differing measures, would Himself have differing weights and differing measures as to His standards for the nations. The Lord G-d is not a G-d of differing weights and differing measures. G-d is One and His standards are one. He cannot be changed, they cannot be changed. Indeed His Word says of Him the following; from the Torah first:
For the Lord your God is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God who does not show partiality nor take a bribe.
Deuteronomy 10:17
And in the New Testament we read the following observation that Shimon Petra, who was Jewish; made when visiting a righteous Gentile named Cornelius, a Roman Centurion no less:
Opening his mouth, Shimon/Peter said:
“I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.”
Acts 10:34-35
So you see, the standards of G-d are universal. Morality is morality regardless of what people say or think it is either here or in Timbuktu, and immorality is immorality regardless of what people say or think either here or Katmandu. G-d’s standard holds regardless of locale, nation, religious upbringing, ethnicity, or race. He is universal and His ways are universal; they apply equally to all. An interesting article from a Christian perspective is the one titled "GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS." I recommend everyone who reads this go to the link take the time to read the well-written article. Regardless of one’s faith, it makes some very good points as to how G-d welcomes everyone to know Him, because He looks at the heart; just as He told Samuel the prophet when He chose David as King over Israel, having rejected Saul for his disobedience:
But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him (Saul); for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
1Samuel 16:7
G-d does not look at the superficialities that human beings get caught up in. He sees into the heart of every person, and it is from there that He knows one from another.
It is interesting to note, as I mentioned above, I had been speaking to the wife of a Kosher butcher I know who works at Pathmark; a Chassidic couple, and when I told them where these codes are located pertaining to the elections (according to the narrator of the You Tube video named Mitt Romney president in the codes.wmv , they looked up the Parashah (Biblical reading portion from the Torah for the day, Parashot is the plural form of this word for those who do not know.) for these codes, and read it out loud in Hebrew, and it is where G-d has given Israel His Law.
As Moses stood before Israel, he warned them that they had two paths to choose before them – the path of life and blessing, and obedience to G-d’s commandments, or the path of disobedience resulting in death and cursing and exile. The choice was theirs to make, and it would fall to each succeeding generation.
The specific Scripture verses were 12 through14, and 36; where it says the following, and it speaks volumes, almost describing where America finds itself today, “The Lord will open for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow,” and “The Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you only will be above, and you will not be underneath, if you listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I charge you today, to observe them carefully, and do not turn aside from any of the words which I command you today, to the right or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them,” and “The Lord will bring you and your king, whom you set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone.”
I strongly suggest to those reading this post, that they open their Bibles and read the entire 28th chapter of Deuteronomy for themselves and understand what is at play here. The people of ancient Israel were given a choice between good and evil, they made their choices and we know the history. It is one that breaks my heart to its very core every time I read it, and it applies to this very day, and will do so until Messiah’s coming/return (regardless of how one views who He is, He will come.) America too, had a choice between two world views and chose one over the other; and now it will receive precisely what it chose for itself. They don’t have G-d to blame for what’s coming; they only have themselves to blame.
Almost in closing; did anybody miss what occurred just prior to the elections and what came right on its heels? At the end of the tenth month (October 28th to 30th Hebrew month Cheshvan 12th to 14th, and the days which followed,) the east coast, predominantly the blue states that voted overwhelmingly for Obama were slammed with the most devastating and unique storm in 100 years? Hurricane Sandy before the elections and Athena, the Nor’easter that followed. Doesn’t anybody get it? Connect the dots folks. It wasn’t G-d’s fault; He gave US a free will and we made our choices, and we chose for ourselves our current leader and everything that will come with him for the next four years. Prepare and brace yourselves. It will not be pretty.
I leave you here with the following quote from an unknown author, because it captures in a brief single sentence, everything that I have written in this article and the essence of my wife’s observations on Election Night as we went to bed. I quote:
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

The Harbinger: Assumptions That Should Not Be Made
I recently posted the following on David James' site:
Good morning. Thank you again for allowing me to post a response both to Tony and to you Dr. James. I address myself first to you David, because I've heard you say that we are to assume that because you spent 100s of hours researching to write your book to rebut The Harbinger, it should be given merit and be listened to. On the basis of that argument one can say that we should listen to Orthodox Judaism and their claim that Jesus is not the Messiah because it has posited this for two thousand years and they have built a theology and biblical Hermeneutic to justify that claim.
The amount of man hours, months, or years one spends to research and write an opinion - and your book is nothing more than an opinion - does not in itself confirm that its claims are correct or give it a stamp of it being correct in any way.
Because you understand being yourself a student of Scripture that if your premise upon which you form your opinion about something is incorrect, and the methods you use to affirm an opinion you've made are centered on that premise based upon an incorrect opinion; your conclusion, regardless of how well researched they may be or appear to be; will be entirely incorrect; as we know about Judaism's opinion regarding the Lord Jesus Christ upon which it has developed a well-defined hermeneutic and body of literature around for two thousand years.
So your argument that because you spent long hours researching your book (which I've discovered gross inaccuracies that I will detail in a forthcoming work of my own as the Lord wills), its claims deserve to be heard and considered - is nothing more than a straw man argument, because the same could be said - based upon your argument - of Judaism's two thousand year claim that Jesus is not the Messiah, when in fact we know from Scripture that He is.
What's more, if the Lord wills and I get my work to the publisher, I will show from what you claim in your book, that your approach and arguments which you make about America goes to the very heart of the Gospel and God's grace and denies it categorically because it denies from a Dispensationalist/Minimalist/Cessationist Theology and well-crafted and argued but Biblically flawed hermeneutic; the very nature of God and how He operates to this very day.
These I will show in my forthcoming work, if the Lord wills. What's more, as I have stated in my previous posts here and elsewhere, the approach and methods you and other critics of The Harbinger have taken are NOT Biblically sound, because a servant of Christ and his teachings have been trumped before a public forum and have been mercilessly misunderstood, his writings and teachings misinterpreted, he has been mischaracterized in a campaign of defamation and delegitimization.
That is not the Berean Way and it is not the way and methods that Christians should use amongst themselves, and especially before a skeptical and unbelieving unregenerate public. You may cite as many Scriptures as you like to justify yourself right now, and think you can get away with this, but I warn you before God; every idle word you speak against your brother and every claim you make against him, and I address myself also to other critics here - everything you do and say against Rabbi Jonathan Cahn and any other servant of Christ with whom you hold doctrinal differences with, and post your differences in a public forum for all to see; claiming that to be defenders of Biblical integrity and doctrinal purity (there are a lot of claims to that these days and the deception is great); you and all of your colleagues and confederates with whom you have undertaken this horrendous enterprise; will be held accountable by the God of heaven, with whom you will not be able to make any claims of self-justification other than to plead His mercy and grace.
This is why David, I have posted both here and elsewhere, and in private correspondence with you; that I have been very concerned with you and your organization's approach to what has come to known in many circles as the "discernment" ministry, although such a ministry is not cited in Scripture, but nevertheless in this land of Biblical Illiteracy, there is a need for God's people to be discerning. When addressing yourselves to matters of theological differences with others in the Body of Christ, be very careful not to cross the line of God's patience by directing your differences about doctrinal and hermeneutical matters with others of our faith by posing these differences as both doctrinal truths, or claiming your hermeneutics is superior to those of a different school of thought. We've been down this road before you and I, I believe you understand what I am saying here.
Another cautionary note, please be very cautious with what you write when opining about what others mean by the terminology they use and the words they employ in their writings. I have discovered that there is a tendency to put into other people's words meanings that do not exist and have not been the original intent of the author's when he put them to paper. Your book is filled with this from cover to cover - ) will show this in my forthcoming work, Lord willing - and it is cleverly argued to convince the unsuspecting reader to accept what you say as fact.
I will ask you this question. Were you commissioned by T.A. McMahon to write this book, and then write it after he asked you to, or did you do write this book and later offered him to publish it?
Your answer, and assuming you will not lie here, but the Lord will know for certain as He does all matters and nothing escapes His notice; will speak volumes about your work and will lay to rest a good many arguments either in its favor and against it.
Thank you
