The Last Days

The Journal Export
Isaiah 55:11 So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper.


What will happen in the last days? This is the Last Day.
     "Isaiah 24: 1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the creditor, so with the debtor. 3 The earth shall be utterly emptied, and clean despoiled; for the LORD hath spoken this word. 4 The earth fainteth and fadeth away, the world faileth and fadeth away, the lofty people of the earth do fail. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statute, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore hath a curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty; therefore the inhabitants of the earth waste away, and men are left few. .... 18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the terror shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the trap; for the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth do shake; 19 The earth is broken, broken down, the earth is crumbled in pieces, the earth trembleth and tottereth; 20 The earth reeleth to and fro like a drunken man, and swayeth to and fro as a lodge; and the transgression thereof is heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD will punish the host of the high heaven on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the dungeon, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be punished. 23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for the LORD of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before His elders shall be Glory."

There is not harsher description of what will happen to the Earth, the people and why, than Isaiah 24.

First, I see a destruction of the heavens and the earth. A form of calling to account each and everyone for their actions, because the Master Of The Universe has stopped waiting for us to return unto HIM. Where have we, the people that have Adam and Noah as our ancestors failed?  We have returned to the days of Noah, but worse.
How worse? We broke the Covenants.
What do you mean 'We'? I don't even know these covenants.
My answer to this exchange is: If you are a descendent of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, then you were chosen for a very special purpose,  . . . . We are to bring to the people of the earth the LAWS, TEACHINGS and EVIDENCE that the LORD OUR GOD IS GOD. We are the example of the COVENANTS, The LAWS, the TRUTH OF THE LORD.

The Writing of Moses --Written Torah contains all of the instruction any any person is required to do and how to do them. They also contain the choosing of a people to be examples for the people of the earth. The Children of Jacob - Israel are the example, for their good or harm but NEVER RELEASED FROM THE CONTRACT(COVENANTS). Hence we are blessed and cursed. Blessed  to demonstrate to the WHOLE WORLD  that KEEPING THE DEAL is something EVERYONE should do. Cursed and Punished BY GOD because we fail to keep the Covenants, to be a HOLY PEOPLE. Blessed to that we will not disappear from the earth, but that a remnant will be kept alive to demonstrate  GOD'S MERCY and JUSTICE to all peoples and that HIS WORD HE UPHOLDS. The MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE chose the children of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob(Israel) as HIS Servants --We accepted that Covenant.

Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will hearken unto My voice indeed, and keep My covenant, then ye shall be Mine own treasure from among all peoples; for all the earth is Mine; 6 and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.'

Leviticus 25:18 Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

Leviticus 26:3 If ye walk in My statutes, and keep My commandments, and do them;)

Deuteronomy 26:16 This day the LORD thy God commandeth thee to do these statutes and ordinances; thou shalt therefore observe and do them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul. 17 Thou hast avouched(Affirmed or Asserted) the LORD this day to be thy God, and that thou wouldest walk in His ways, and keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His ordinances, and hearken unto His voice. 18 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be His own treasure, as He hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all His commandments; 19 and to make thee high above all nations that He hath made, in praise, and in name, and in glory; and that thou mayest be a holy people unto the LORD thy God, as He hath spoken.

Deuteronomy 28:1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all His commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all the nations of the earth. 2 And all these blessings shall come upon thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

Do not tell us about truth, tell us about fantasy.
Isaiah 59: 3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue muttereth wickedness. 4 None sueth in righteousness, and none pleadeth in truth; they trust in vanity, and speak lies, they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Jeremiah 9:4 And they deceive every one his neighbour, and truth they speak not; they have taught their tongue to speak lies, they weary themselves to commit iniquity. 5 Thy habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know Me, saith the LORD.


The sun and the moon will give their light no more and GOD will be the light.
Signs in the Heavens and upon the earth.

Isaiah 13:9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel, and full of wrath and fierce anger; to make the earth a desolation, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it, 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

Isaiah 24:17 Terror, and the pit, and the trap, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth. 18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the terror shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the trap; for the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth do shake; 19 The earth is broken, broken down, the earth is crumbled in pieces, the earth trembleth and tottereth; 20 The earth reeleth to and fro like a drunken man, and swayeth to and fro as a lodge; and the transgression thereof is heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD will punish the host of the high heaven on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the dungeon, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be punished. 23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for the LORD of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before His elders shall be Glory.

Isaiah 30: 25 And there shall be upon every lofty mountain, and upon every high hill streams and watercourses, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall. 26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of the seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the bruise of His people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.


Ezekiel 32:7 And when I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof black; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.(Egypt's end)

Joel 2:10 Before them the earth quaketh, the heavens tremble; the sun and the moon are become black, and the stars withdraw their shining.
Joel 3:4 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come. 5 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered; for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those that escape, as the LORD hath said, and among the remnant those whom the LORD shall call.
Joel 4:15 The sun and the moon are become black, and the stars withdraw their shining.

A New Heavens and a new earth  Isaiah 65 and 66

Zion(Mountain of GOD) to be higher than the other mountains, how is this possible?

Isaiah 2:2 And it shall come to pass in the end of days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

Micah 4:2 And it shall come to pass in the end of days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

I have observed that LORD keeps HIS LAWS even this one: The truth is known at the witness of two or more.
What Law?  Deuteronomy 17:6 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is to die be put to death; at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.

Deuteronomy 19:15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth; at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.

Deuteronomy 4:26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, . . . .

Example of the Witness of Two(or second events)
Genesis 18:20 And the LORD said: 'Verily, the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and, verily, their sin is exceeding grievous. 21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto Me; and if not, I will know.' Genesis 19:1 And the two angels came to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom; and Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them; and he fell down on his face to the earth; ---THE WITNESS OF TWO, even the LORD keeps HIS LAW before HE tells us.

In The story of the Exodus from Egypt, Pharaoh could have released the Hebrews the first time Moses demanded for the LORD. But, the event was for the for all of the world to see the glory of the LORD.
Remember the plagues and events, now for Gog of Mogog.

Ezekiel 38:22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will cause to rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many peoples that are with him, an overflowing shower, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. 23 Thus will I magnify Myself, and sanctify Myself, and I will make Myself known in the eyes of many nations; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

The nations will be called from the north to war against ' 'GOG and MAGOG Ezekiel 38 & 39.
As in the destruction of Egypt, so the destruction of GOG in a great fashion and for the GLORY OF GOD BEFORE THE NATIONS. Ezekiel 38 is the synopsis and 39 the repeat with the purposes.



Isaiah 13:5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of His indignation, to destroy the whole earth.

Isaiah 30:8 Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever.
9 For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children that refuse to hear the teaching of the LORD;
10 That say to the seers: 'See not,' and to the prophets: 'Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy delusions;
11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.'


Isaiah 60:19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
20 Thy sun shall no more go down, Neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. --[Repeated twice]

Ezekiel 32(the pit):7 And when I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof black; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
8 All the bright lights of heaven will I make black over thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord GOD.
9 I will also vex the hearts of many peoples, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.

Jeremiah 23:7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt';
Jeremiah 23:8 but: 'As the LORD liveth, that brought up and that led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them'; and they shall dwell in their own land.

Jeremiah 8: 4 '. . . .Thus saith the LORD: do men fall, and not rise up again? Doth one turn away, and not return? 5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, they refuse to return. 6 I attended and listened, but they spoke not aright; no man repenteth him of his wickedness, saying: 'What have I done?'(expressing regret) Every one turneth away in his course, as a horse that rusheth headlong in the battle. 7 Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but My people know not the ordinance of the LORD. 8 How do ye say: 'We are wise, and the Law of the LORD is with us'? Lo, certainly in vain hath wrought the vain pen of the scribes. 9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken; lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them? 10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall possess them; for from the least even unto the greatest every one is greedy for gain, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.'

All of this reminds me of Noah and the state of the earth in those days. For a hundred years Noah and three of his sons build the ARK in the view of the people, yet no one changed their ways. No one returned so that their souls, lives and families should be saved. We have the last destruction and the prophesies covering who, what , why , how, and even the signs of when, for more than two thousand years. We have a people (Israel) that show the attention of THE LORD with blessing and punishment. We now have signs in the heavens. Signs upon the earth with photos and video from people and from news services. There are entries on the internet that confirm the truth of prophecy; so that we may know the LIVING GOD OF ISRAEL is and that HIS word is TRUTH.

So, take a look around, how much time do you think you have? Should you save your soul now? Or is there time to wait and do it latter? What will you do? If not now, when?

The clock is ticking and you do not know the moment your time is up.

What I have just presented is only a small piece of the references. If you feel that you can not make a decision yet, then read the Tanakh (Old Testament). Or you could tell me your question and I will strive to show you what THE LORD through HIS prophets has said and what HE gives me to understand. Just do not take too much time.

Isaiah 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near; 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts; and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have compassion upon him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. 8 For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.

Isaiah 55:11 So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, except it accomplish that which I please, and make the thing whereto I sent it prosper.

A blessing I offer you: May the GOD of our fathers, the GOD of Abraham, GOD of Isaac, the GOD of Jacob, give you Ears that hear, Eyes that see and a Heart of understanding so that You will perceive the truth, know the meaning of it and Wisely choose the LORD now.

Totalitarian vs Freedom

As defined in Wikipedia:

 "Totalitarianism or totalitarian state is a concept used by some political scientists to describe a political system in which the state holds total authority over the society and seeks to control all aspects of public and private life wherever possible."

The use of complex laws which no one can possibly know, or avoid breaking is the means to implement that control process. So we must have lots of these laws. This allows anyone to be declared a criminal as needed.

One definition of Freedom from an internet search presented:
( free·dom
ˈfrēdəm/
noun
the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint. "we do have some freedom of choice")

Freedom requires laws that are understandable and simple, so that the people can know and keep the law.
How does this apply in 2014? Are there examples of these systems today? We are facing many examples today. Some of the recent laws are 1500 to thousands of pages before being redefined into sub-categories and rules with laws which continue to expand . . . . These have been put in place to create a system of laws that no one can obey without being guilty of something else.

Those are secular, what about religious law. It is the same. In Judaism, we have the Mishna,  Gemara, Talmud added to the Five Books of Moses(Torah) to redefine and explain and create laws of men to replace GOD'S LAWS(which HE holds us accountable for HIS Laws).

The Five Books of Moses(Torah) written at the LORD'S Command and dictated by HIM. This is the simple and straight Law designed to be understood and followed even by a simple person. This was considered by some to be lacking something, so the others were written and added. This makes Rabbinic Judaism a Totalitarian system, creating a an inability to keep the Law, by making the LAW unknowable.

Unfortunately, this makes you unable to keep the law, and the of the leaders no one excepting responsibility for your outcome. NO one can take responsibility nor to stand between you and the LORD.

"Isaiah 29:13 And the Lord said: Forasmuch as this people draw near, and with their mouth and with their lips do honour Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear of Me is a commandment of men learned by rote; . . . ."

"Deuteronomy 30:11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not too hard for thee, neither is it far off. 12 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say: 'Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?' 13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say: 'Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?' 14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it."

For me this is the great part of all of this, . . . . GOD only holds me accountable for keeping HIS LAWS and HIS COVENENT and these are in the TORAH not the additional add-ons.You also can know and perform all of these laws in the TORAH, and THE LORD maintains HIS WORD and HIS COVENANTS. These Covenants are bi-directional, in that IF you follow ==Reward, otherwise punishment is earned. Enough punishment I want the blessing and protection these contracts have in them.

You can read the TORAH and gain understanding, alone. You are can know and are held accountable if you break GOD'S LAW(Writings of Moses). It is great to have someone that is going on this journey with you, helping each other to know the LAW. If you are seeking, find someone that implements each and every law learned, or else knowing will not help you. It must be applied to your life, for the life of your soul and those that SEE you.

Yaakov
