The Witnesses & the unholy trinity
Well everyone is always talking about who they think that the two witnesses in the book of Revelation will be. Even people who are not religious, like to speculate on who these witnesses of the Bible are going to be. I have come up with my own theory on who I believe that they are.
I have been studying into the Bible for the first time in my life this last couple years. And I have definitely not been coming up with the same things that people have been saying for thousands of years now when it comes to what the Bible is saying. In my opinion the Bible has been majorly misinterperted throughout the years. And this is probably why so many people are falling away from religion right now.
I have to admit that when I first started reading the Bible I was really freaked out at times by the way it was worded and some of the stories in it. I was completely convinced at one point that our \’God\” was a psychopathic narcissist who just loved to kill and pick on people. Who basically could not make up his mind on what the hell he was doing on any level, and liked to basically refer to himself in the third person a lot. Or was just basically talking to himself throughout most of the Bible.
Leaving it all very confusing for those of us who actually do pick up a Bible and read it! It was not until I started noticing how the Lord of Host seemed to come across as a completely different person than the actual God of the Bible. Basically how we have been taught to read the Bible has been completely wrong all these years. This leads to a lot of confusion, along with people wandering away from a religion that sounds at its best to be a psychotic mess! And in my opinion, most are worshipping a false religion or a false image of who God is supposed to be.
Number 2 in the Ten Commandments is to not worship any false images or idols
Christianity and christians
For how can you really call yourself a Christian if you really do not know what the Bible is saying? I will admit that for years I would refer to myself as a Christian if someone were to ask me. I of course believed in a \”God\”, and so I just assumed that I was considered a Christian if I believed in a God. I even went around telling myself and others that I believed in Jesus Christ. Did I? No I really did not. There was always something there that kept me from truly believing in him. Not just the drugs and alcohol that consumed my life for many years, nor the fact I did not go to church, was the reason for my not believing in him. It was how confusing it all was. I knew all about the stories of course. I knew about how he died on the cross for our sins. I knew about the birth in Bethlehem. And I knew how most people referred to him as God incarnate.
And in the back of my head I always felt like there was something majorly missing there. I did not feel like anything that had to do with God should be that confusing! I also always wondered why the world seemed to be in such a terrible mess if he had come here all those thousands of years ago to save us! And one of the big ones that did not sit well with me was how this one man\’s dying on the cross now made it where we just had to believe in him, and we would be forgiven our sins. Especially with all of the controversy that surrounded the whole topic of Jesus and who he really was.
finding your own path
It wasn’t until I was paralyzed and almost lost my life that I really let God come into my life. And I am still not a bit close to being what most people would look at and call religious. I do not associate myself with any organized religion out there. And I am still on the search for the answers in the Bible. I believe I have found many of my answers, yet there is still a whole lot that is unanswered. Beings that I got started so late in my life I may never even get the entire Bible read. For I feel that there is a shortening of time here for what I need to get out there. Summing it up, I don’t feel that we have a lot of time left here on earth before we had better have it figured out! And not to say that everyone should have it all completely figured out, but you should at least be trying to get it figured out! For I believe that God will pardon those who are at least seeking out the truth. For he knows your hearts and everything that is inside you. So if you are one of the ones who have been blinded by ignorance, bad teachings, and perhaps laziness on your own part to get up and get into it, then you had better get moving. There are many who can still learn and see the truth. Sad to say that there are also many more who are so blinded by what they have been taught that they will never see the truth.
All you have to have is an open mind and the ability to seek things out on your own. Don’t be like the many sheep who will be led to the slaughter. And it does tell you in the Bible this exact thing will be happening. Check out these next couple of verses.
Isaiah 24:6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate”
The Unholy Trinity
I will go ahead and move forward to what I was going to show in this post. Hopefully I can show you enough to convince some of you out there that I am right about all of what I am saying. And I will do that more so through proof throughout the Bible that I can show you in black and white print.
I will tell you right off the start here that at this point of my studying into the Bible, I have come up with Jesus being the Beast they are speaking about in the book of Revelation. And I believe him to be one of the witnesses they speak of right before they go into the Beast from the sea.
Then the Dragon they speak of who gives the beast his power, authority and title is possibly the person in the Bible who we are calling our “God”. I will explain all of this along with the Bible verses that have lead me to this conclusion in just a moment.
Baphomet U.S. Coin printed in 1881. On his forearms is the tattoo of Solve et Coagula. Which means to break down something to its basic elements and then rebuild it.
John as possibly the other witness?
Then I believe that the one they speak of as the \”false prophet\” could possibly be John the Baptist. I say this because John was born only 6 months before Jesus, while also being born to two women who were cousins, and neither one of the women really should have been having children if you want to look at it as how it was stated in the Bible. Mary, who was Jesus\’s mother, was a virgin. And John the Baptists mother was well over the age of having children when the angel came to his father Zechariah, informing him that his wife was going to bear a son. And told him that he would be for a horn of salvation to many.
Luke 1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, ”His name is John. And they marvelled all. 64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God. 65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judæa. 66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him. 67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying, 68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, 69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;”
Now in the above verses I feel as though they are referring to John as being the Horn of Salvation. I have seen all over the internet how most people are posting things talking about Jesus being the Horn of Salvation. But it seems pretty clear to me that they are speaking about John when they are talking about the fear that spread across everywhere that knew about the child. I also have something else to point out concerning Horns. Read the next verse.
Now John the Baptist also prophesied at the same time that Jesus was doing his ministry. And they both were dressed in sackcloth. Another big clue when it comes to who the 2 witnesses are.
Revelation 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
One thousand two hundred and threescore days are 3 1/2 years. The exact time that Jesus ministered in Jerusalem before being put to death. And if you look at how John the Baptist was also put to death right before Jesus. So you have both of them being born very close to one another, and being put to death very close to one another.
So how I have followed the Bible has led me to conclude that John the Baptist is possibly Zerubabbel, and Jesus would be Joshua. For it states in the book of Haggai that the Lord of Hosts stirs up the spirits of Zerubabbel and Joshua to come do work in the house of the Lord of Hosts, their God.
Haggai 1:14 And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of hosts, their God,”
If you will notice in the verses above how it states that the people will rejoice and then states they shall see the plummet in the hand of zerubbabel with those seven. This is after he states how the hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands shall also finish it. Then you will know that the Lord of Hosts sent me unto you.
More verses that seem to bring some questioning to mind
Now partly why I have been thinking on John, Jesus, and the Dragon, would be because they say in Revelation that John will have to prophecy again.
Then we have the fact that the Lord of Hosts is the one who sends his messenger and he states that he will be sending Elijah before to set the way.
Malachi 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:”
Now here is where Jesus himself starts talking about how there was violence in heaven since the days of John the Baptist.
Revelation 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.”
Revelation 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.”
Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.”
Coming as a thief
Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”
Revelation 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”
Hosea 7:1 When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, [and] the troop of robbers spoileth without.
Joel 2:9
They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
Zecharia 5:4
I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.
Matthew 24:43
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Thessalonians-1 5:2
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
Revelations 3:3
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Proverbs 6:19 (ESV)
a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.
Now moving on to Jesus being one of the witnesses.
jesus as the witness
Revelation 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.”
Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ who is the faithful witness.
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;”
From whence thou art fallen and the morning star
Revelation 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto ”thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”
The above verse opens up the door of looking into who Jesus really is. For check out the wording of what they are saying. You have left your first love, and then telling him to remember from where thou art fallen. Check out in Isaiah when it is talking about Lucifer. How art thou fallen from heaven o lucifer, son of the morning!
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”
Now check out the next verse where Jesus is stating that he has sent his angel to testify unto you these things in the churches! He goes on to state that he is the root and offspring of David and the bright morning star!
Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.”
Now in the verse below where he is addressing the church if Smyrna he states that who keeps his works to the end will he give power over the nations. To rule them with a rod of iron, and as vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers. As he received of his father. And he will also give them the morning star. I guess another big coincidence that he is talking of his father and he is then going to give them the Morning Star.
Revelation 2:26-28 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.28 And I will give him the morning star.
Looking below we have another verse in which there seems to be a warning coming from it when it is talking about the Morning Star. After stating how they have a more sure word of prophecy in which you will do well to take heed. As unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
2 Peter 1:17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. 18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard when we were with him in the holy mount. 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the morning star rises in your hearts: 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.”
Now this verse below I have had a hell of a time dealing with it. I could not believe all of the articles on the internet that basically turned this verse into whatever they wanted it to be saying. I mean article after article had this verse turned into something like a fairy tale saying. When in fact it says the exact opposite. It states that he more grievously afflicted her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. Galilee being where Jesus is known for. And then many of these websites just kept out the part that comes after the people who walked in darkness saw a great light. It actually goes on to say that he increased the people in numbers, but not in joy. So it really changes things when you look at the entire verse and do not change anything in it. Or leave anything out!
Isaiah 9:1 Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. 2 The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.”
More verses with warnings in them
Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
New names
Revelation 3;12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”
Hosea 1:9 Then said God, Call his name Lo-ammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God. 10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.
Hosea 2:16 And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali. 17 For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.”
As you can see from the above verses there is a lot of talk about names. And in one of them he is talking about how he will not be their God. For they are sons of the living God. And then it goes onto the verse saying that you shall call me no more Baali, ye shall call me Ishi. And how he will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth. And they shall no more be remembered by their names. I believe that these verses really speak a lot to you when it comes to telling us who is who in the Bible. For one, the sons of the living God goes hand in hand with my theory on the Lord of Host being the one they are referring to when speaking of the living God. And then we have Baali just basically changing his name to Ishi. Which I find a little strange that more people throughout the years have not thought about that verse a little harder. And then we have the first one that tells us about one of the churches. And it goes on to say how Jesus will make you a pillar in the temple of his God. And if you notice it states that you will no longer go out. Another strange way of putting things in my opinion. But moving on. He also goes on speaking about how you will get a new name and he will reveal his name at the end. Very, very strange if you ask me. Especially when one looks at the verse from Hosea and sees how we have Baal just changing his name like one would change their underwear for the day!
new testament warnings?
2 Peter 1:15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; 16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.”
2 Peter 1: 14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;”
The Christ=Christianity=AntiChrist Yeshua=Jesus=Joshua
We in America are a Christian nation. Those who don\’t think we are can just look to our American Dollar, to the fact that you have to place your right hand on the Bible in order to be sworn into about anything. We are not very tolerant of other religions. The pilgrims came here to establish Christianity. George Washington when offered a crown told them that America does not need a crown, God was our crown.
2 Peter 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness”
Where I will be, you will be
John 14:2-3 In my father\’s house there are many rooms: If it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself: that where I am, ye will be there also.
Daniel 10: A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11 I beheld then because of the great words which the horn we’re spoken, I beheld even unto the beast was slain, and his body was destroyed, and given unto the burning fire.
Revelation 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. 13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever. 14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
Daniel 7:28 Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.
Revelation 14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. 12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Now I could be wrong but the above verse seems to tell it pretty straightforward in my opinion. We have the Bible verses saying that where Jesus is going to be, then those who are with him will be. And the verse that speaks of whoever worships the beast or his image will be tormented with fire and brimstone, in the presence of the holy angels, and the lamb, seems to say a lot. I mean why would it be in the presence of the holy angels and the lamb unless they are going to be there also? I do not think that they would just go down there to be spectators. That seems a little bit ghoulish to me. So if you worship the beast or his image, you are going to burn it says. In the presence of the angels and the lamb. Then it goes on to tell you who it is that will be punished. And here is the patience of the saints, here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
Now I do not know how much more straightforward that a message could be. I know everyone chooses to brush it off, or make it into something else completely. But I don\’t understand what about it is hard to understand. It seems very upfront to me. We have a pretty unique system going on when it comes to Christianity. We have over 2,000 branches of Christianity here in the United States. Each one being just a little bit different from the next in what exactly they believe in, while the whole lot usually stands for the same things. To teach the Ten Commandments, while also worshipping Jesus. And we are taught to have faith in Jesus. If you have faith and believe that he died for your sins, then you will be rewarded with everlasting life. Now check out the next couple verses. Habakkuk being the Old Testament, and Hebrews being the New Testament.
Old testament predictions
Habakkuk 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
Hebrews 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
Hebrews 10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace. 30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. 31 it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Once again the above verse is talking about how it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
transgressing by wine
Once again we have below some Old Testament predictions, along with the New Testament outcomes. Transgressing by wine is what Habakkuk predicted. Then in John we have Jesus performing his first miracle at the wedding feast. He ended up turning water into wine.
Habakkuk 2:5 Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people.
John 2:10-11 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
Revelation 14:20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
The lord of hosts
Habakkuk 2:13 Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
Isaiah 6:5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.
Isaiah 24:23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously.”
Now I do not understand why the moon would be confounded and the sun would be ashamed for the Lord of Hosts to reign in Mount Zion. If the Lord of Hosts was really \”God\” like they try saying he is. And why would Isaiah in the above verse be so upset about everything being unclean and undone because his eyes have seen the king, the Lord of Hosts?
jesus and the sword
Matthew 10:34-35 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Jeremiah 25-27 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.
As you can see there is a lot of talk about swords in these last couple verses that I am sharing with you. One is Jesus telling everyone that he has not come to spread peace, but he has come with a sword. He has came to set a man at variance against his father and so on. Then we have in Jeremiah how the Lord of host is stating that the people will rise no more because of the sword that he will send among them. Which leads me to the verse of Malachi below. In this verse the Lord of hosts is talking about how he will be sending his messenger. And this messenger will prepare the way for him.
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.
Now we have went on to Zechariah and as you can see the Lord of hosts is saying that he will be taking something, and it will not be by might, or by power, but he will accomplish this by his spirit.
Haggai 1:14 And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God.
Here in the above verse of Haggai is where we start to get into the lord of hosts and Joshua and Zerubabel. The Lord of hosts is stirring up the spirit of Joshua and Zerubabel to come and do work in the house of the lord of hosts, their God. Then if you look below you will see where the book of Zechariah is going into Joshua, and how the Lord of hosts is offering him the opportunity to walk among these men to be wondered at. If he will keep his charge, walk in his ways, and also judge his house.
All of the above was happening after the Devil had obviously plucked Joshua from the flames of the pit. See below.
Zechariah 3:7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by. 8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the branch. 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree”.
And here in the verse below you will see how it all started with Joshua. And for anyone who doesn\’t already know, Joshua is Jesus translated to english.
Zechariah 3:1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. 2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. 4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. 5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by.”
In the above verse where they are talking about Joshua, you will see that the Lord rebukes Satan and states is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? Now check out some of the interesting headlines that are associated with the \”He Gets Us\” ad campaign that is happening right now.
Isaiah 7:4 And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.”
Isaiah 7:5 Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying, 6 Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal:”
Amos 9:11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:
Isaiah 22:9 Ye have also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool. 11 Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
Isaiah 22:13 And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die. 14 And it was revealed in mine ears by the Lord of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord God of hosts. 15 Thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say, 16 What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, and that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?
Matthew 27:59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
Sounds like they are talking about the last supper in the verse above. Then it goes on to say that surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die. Thus saith the Lord of Hosts. Then he goes on to say what has thou here? and who hast thou here. That he has hewed out a sepulcher here and graves a habitation for himself in a rock. They are definitely talking about Jesus in these verses. Check out the verse below of Zechariah and how the Lord of Hosts is giving Joshua a change of clothing and he states that he has caused his iniquity to pass over. And if you will notice that the New Testament, states how Jesus was put in a sepulcher.
Isaiah 22:17 Behold, the Lord will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee. 18 He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord’s house.
Isaiah 22:21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. 22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.”
Names and what they really mean
Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”
Revelation 18:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.”
Joshua
Zechariah 3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and stood before the angel. 4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
Zechariah 3:6 And the angel of the Lord protested unto Joshua, saying, 7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by. 8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.”
Habakkuk 2:18 What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols.
All About Branches
Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:”
Isaiah 16:8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, [and] the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come [even] unto Jazer, they wandered [through] the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea.
Isaiah 14:19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, .
Zechariah 3:8 Hear now, Jesus the high priest, thou, and thy neighbours that are sitting before thee: for they are diviners, for, behold, I bring forth my servant The Branch.
Now as you can see this above verse may have been talking about something else in its time, but as with a lot of the Bible, it seems to be like history repeating itself. So that is exactly what my theory has been. The Devil put Jesus in there are an obstacle to all of the people. To get everyone worshipping Jesus instead of God. And that is exactly what has happened throughout the time. Now everyone feels as though they have to do nothing more than to believe in Jesus and not even acknowledge God, and they are fine. They believe that they will be going to heaven. Not just going to heaven, but they will be one of the first taken up to meet Jesus in the sky.
Parables and warnings
Habakkuk 2:6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
Matthew 21:45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
Here we once again have a prediction from the book of Habakkuk as to what will be happening and how long will the people let this go on. And as you can see from the book of Matthew, Jesus was very good about speaking in parables.
Hidden Things and Secrets
Hebrews 9:3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; 4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; 5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
Shadowing the mercyseat, which they cannot speak particularly of…If you will look at the book of Isaiah they are speaking of when the mercyseat was established.
Matthew 6:4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. 5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.”
Hebrews 5:11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
Philemon 1:1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer.
Philemon 1:9 Yet for love\’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. 1:23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus.
II Peter 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.”
I Corinthians 10:9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. 10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.”
II Corinthians 12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.”
II Peter 1:18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount. 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place until the day dawn and the morning star arise in your hearts:”
II Peter 1:16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.”
Have you ever noticed how Jesus only refers to him as the father?
I was troubled by the fact that Jesus only refers to he who sent him as the father. I know you may think that is a little weird, but it just struck me as odd that he never says the words God except in a couple places. And one of those places is where someone calls him good. He responds by saying , “Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God”. (Mark 10:18)
And then I found this one also, (Matthew 19:26) But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Those two were the ones that I noticed as I have been studying into the Bible. As opposed to all of the ones where he refers to him as the father.
the dragon, the beast, and false prophet
Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Matthew 21:23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority? 24 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Hebrews 12:22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.”
James 2:1 My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. 2 For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;
Acts 5:10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. 11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. 12 ¶ And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch. 13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
Worshipping the dragon and the beast
Isaiah 9:14 Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day. 15 The ancient and honorable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. 16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err, and they that are led of them are destroyed.”
Isaiah 9:19 Through the wrath of the Lord of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother. 20 And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm:
Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?”
Now when in this lifetime do you really think that we could ever come to another type of circumstance where the entire world is going to actually be worshipping two different deities as we are right now? I mean we really have to look at the reading of the Bible and what it really says in order to figure a few things out. So in order for another antichrist, besides Jesus, to actually be coming onto the stage and able to take over the entire world, they would first have to have us all worshipping a completely different God first. For only then would the beast from Revelation, actually be able to come onto the stage and take over. As it says in the book of Revelation, the world worshipped the Dragon, and then they also worshipped the beast. Who got all that he was given from the Dragon.
So as we read in verse above, we see how there is another beast who comes up out of the earth. And has all the power of the first beast. So what if the 2nd beast that comes up from the earth was in fact Jesus, or someone impersonating Jesus possibly? Now if the entire world were to be convinced of this then that could lead to the entire opening of the antichrist having power over the entire world. For if Jesus were to come back, or they thought that he had come back, then there would be the real possibility of many people leaving whatever religion they were with and following this Jesus. I can imagine that if people really thought that Jesus was here then they would be likely to say screw their current religion and jump on the bandwagon with all the other Jesus followers. Thinking that they must know something that their current religion does not.
And here is where it states in the Bible how he will be coming again. And this is talking about the antichrist/beast. And in the verse below it talks about the beast that thou saw was, and is not, and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and he will go into perdition. And all that dwell on the earth shall wonder when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. Now what this verse says to me is that this beast was here before and while everyone is wondering after him, they really shouldn\’t be.
Now if you look at this verse above that is only a couple of sentences after the above one, you will see how they are talking about the 7 kings. Now they state how the beast that was and is not, even he is the eighth. And he is of the seven. So how are you going to be the 8th, with only 7 kings? Because it is clear that the beast that was and is not is of the 7 kings, yet he is the eighth. So the only way to work that out would be if they are talking about the beast having already been here, and returning. The same person. He is one of the 7 kings, and he will also be the 8th.
This goes right along with how they speak of the beast in the book of Daniel. It states how it will be 1,290 days for the abomination to be set up, and to take away the sacrifices. Well 1,290 days is equal to 42 months. Which is equal to 3 1/2 years. And this is the time period that the witnesses are said to witness, along with how long the beast will be able to do his thing. And then you look to how long that Jesus did his ministry in Jerusalem, and you get 3 1/2 years.
Now if you will look at the time frame of when Jesus preached in Jerusalem you will see that he preached for 3 1/2 years. Now it states that it will take 1,290 days for the abomination to be set up. And for him to take away the sacrifices. So we have Jesus preaching for the same timeframe it states that the abomination will take to be set up. And you have Jesus being the reason why the sacrifices were taken away. Because as everyone says, Jesus became the perfect sacrifice.
So there you have it. The first 3 1/2 years of the 7 years. He fits the description perfectly. Then it also states that he will come again. This is when he will morph into the desolator. For he comes in with the mouth of a lion, promoting peace, and then turns into the desolator. And through peace will all the nations be destroyed. Jesus is known as the Lion of the tribe of Judah.
The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Now if you will look at how the horsemen are coming in you will see how the white horse come in
Now as you can see by both of the above verses with Jesus that he tells you himself that he is not come to bring peace, but a sword. To being division amongst people. And if you see what the 2nd horse is said to have been bringing is a sword, to take away the peace from the earth. And the first horse is given a crown to go forth and to conquer. And therefore everything that happens onwards is a direct result from everyone on earth worshipping a false Christ.
For now you have the entire world out of balance. Having to work all day long for a days wages that you see with the 3rd horseman and his scales of balance that he brings. And then it goes into the 4th horseman, and he brings death and hell.
Revelation 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. 9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:”
Revelation 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Revelation 11:2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. 3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.”
Here is another important clue as to who the 2 witnesses are in the verse above. The fact that they were dressed in sackcloth. Considering we do not dress in sackcloth in our modern times, I am to assume that this must mean that the witnesses have already been here. Check out again some of these verses.
We have John the Baptist and Jesus. Both of them preached at the same time, in sackcloth. They were born to two women who were cousins. Neither one of the women should have been pregnant if you go by what the Bible says about them. One was a virgin, and the other was too old. Then you also have the fact that both of them were put to death in the same time frame. John was beheaded, and Jesus was crucified. Jesus definitely had the power over water, and they were said to have had other powers, such as shutting down heaven. A big one in my opinion.
what the 7 churches have to say
So if we look at what the churches seem to be saying, we will notice that they are all pretty much referring to Satan or another name association for him. Such as Morning Star. The first church talks about him leaving his first love and how far he has fallen. This sounds exactly like the verse in Isaiah that talks about Lucifer, son of the morning, and how far he has fallen from heaven. Then they talk about how people are saying they are Jews and prophets and are not. They are actually the synagogue of Satan. Then he talks about how he will give them the nations and he will rule them with a rod of iron, and they will be broken to shivers. Even as he received of his father. Then goes on to say that he will give them the Morning Star.
Revelation 20:1 – And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
Revelation 1910 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
Revelation 20:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.”
Hosea 2:6
Bible verses that are warning us about Jesus
Zechariah 13:5 But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman:for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth. 6 And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.”
Zechariah 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west,”
Zechariah 14:16 of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. 17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. 18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. 19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.”
Zechariah 13:9–17Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another. 10 And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people. 11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the Lord. 12 And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. 13 And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord. 14 Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel. 15 And the Lord said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd. 16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.”
Habakkuk 1:14 And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them? 15 They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.”
Matthew 4:12 And Jesus said, come, I will make you fishers of men.
Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
The above verse is one that really caught my attention. For Jesus is basically saying that even though you have cast out demons in his name and many other wonderful works, he will still profess unto you that he never knew you.
The forgotten books of eden
Chap 3:6 Then God in His mercy for Adam who was made after His own image and similitude, explained to him, that these were 5,000 and 500 years; and how One would then come and save him and his seed.
THOMAS\’S GOSPEL of the INFANCY of JESUS CHRIST.
[The original in Greek, from which this translation is made, will be found printed by Cotelerius, in his notes on the constitutions of the Apostles, from a MS. in the French King\’s Library, No. 2279—It is attributed to Thomas, and conjectured to have been originally connected with the Gospel of Mary.]
¶ An Account of the Actions and Miracles of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in his Infancy.
CHAP. I.
2 Jesus miraculously dears the water after rain. 4 plays with clay sparrows, which he animates on the sabbath day.
I THOMAS, an Israelite, judged it necessary to make known to our brethren among the Gentiles, the actions and miracles of Christ in his childhood, which our Lord and God Jesus Christ wrought after his birth in Bethlehem in our country, at which I myself was astonished; the beginning of which was as followeth.
2 ¶ When the child Jesus was five years of age and there had been a shower of rain, which was now over, Jesus was playing with other Hebrew boys by a running stream; and the water running over the banks, stood in little lakes;
3 But the water instantly became clear and useful again; he having smote them only by his word, they readily obeyed him.
4 Then he took from the bank of the stream some soft clay, and formed out of it twelve sparrows; and there were other boys playing with him.
5 But a certain Jew seeing the things which he was doing, namely, his forming clay into the figures of sparrows on the sabbath day, went presently away, and told his father Joseph, and said,
6 Behold, thy boy is playing by the river side, and has taken clay, and formed it into twelve sparrows, and profaneth the sabbath.
7 Then Joseph came to the place where he was, and when he saw him, called to him, and said, Why doest thou that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?
8 Then Jesus clapping together the palms of his hands, called to the sparrows, and said to them: Go, fly away; and while ye live remember me.
9 So the sparrows fled away, making a noise.
10 The Jews seeing this, were astonished, and went away, and told their chief persons what a
strange miracle they had seen wrought by Jesus.
CHAP. II.
2 Causes a boy to wither who broke down his fish pools, 6 partly restores him, 7 dills another boy, 16 causes blindness to fall on his accusers, 18 for which Joseph pulls him by the ear.
BESIDES this, the son of Anna the scribe was standing there with Joseph, and took a bough of a willow tree, and scattered the waters which Jesus had gathered into lakes.
2 But the boy Jesus seeing what he had done, became angry, and said to him, Thou fool, what harm did the lake do thee, that thou shouldest scatter the water?
3 Behold, now thou shalt wither as a tree, and shalt not bring forth either leaves, or branches, or fruit.
4 And immediately he became withered all over.
5 Then Jesus went away home. But the parents of the boy who was withered, lamenting the misfortune of his youth, took and carried him to Joseph, accusing him, and said, Why dost thou keep a son who is guilty of such actions?
6 Then Jesus at the request of all who were present did heal him, leaving only some small member to continue withered, that they might take warning.
7 ¶ Another time Jesus went forth into the street, and a boy running by, rushed upon his shoulder;
8 At which Jesus being angry, said to him, thou shalt go no farther.
9 And he instantly fell down dead:
