A WARNING FROM GOD ALMIGHTY TO THE END TIME TRIBES OF ISRAEL

1 A WARNING FROM GOD ALMIGHTY TO THE END TIME TRIBES OF ISRAEL Who are the nations in this end time that have descended from the twelve tribes or states of the ancient nation of Israel? God Almighty sent his servant, Herbert W. Armstrong to preach the true Gospel to this world, which had not gone to the world since the days of the original apostles. God also used him to send a warning message to the whole House of Israel. He also warned the world as to certain prophecy s that are recorded in the Holy Bible. This man wrote a book, titled THE UNITED STATES AND BRITIAN IN PROPHECY. You need to get a copy of this book if at all possible. In this book God reveals who are the modern descendants of the House of Israel as well as what is prophesied to happen to them in this end time, because of their sins. You may get a copy of this book from the last organization of the Church of God, which calls its self, THE PHILADELPHIA CHURCH OF GOD. Their headquarters is in Edmond, Oklahoma. In reality that church is the church organization that in the bible is called The church of the Laodiceans. (Rev. 3:14) I must advise you here, that any literature that Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong wrote of which they still publish is safe to study, but beware of any of their own teachings. The leader of that church seeks to exalt himself more than the true word of God. It is sad that I must say that, but since I recommended that you ask them for Mr. Armstrong s book I feel responsible to warn you against their false teachings. Their prophet does teach the truth on a lot of things, but it is mixed in with deceptive teachings also. But you won t go wrong by studying only Mr. Armstrong s teachings. Many things that I am inspired of God to tell you here, for your own good that most who will read this will hate and refuse to believe until God proves to you that I am speaking the truth. I don t expect you to believe me, but when these prophecy s are come to past then you will know that God did send me to bear witness to the truth. Great Britain and the United States are the descendants of the tribe of Joseph who received the birthright blessing of God, bestowed on Jacobs sons. Josephs son Ephraim has become Britain, and its Commonwealth of Nations, Ireland, Scotland, Australians, South Africa. Canada pg. 1

2 also is of the seed of Israel. Josephs son Manasseh is The United States of America. Judah, Levi, and Benjamin are known today as Israel. Dan is Denmark. For your information I will here copy the last two paragraphs of chapter nine of Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong s book The United States and Britain in Prophecy. Chapter nine is titled, Israel s New Land. The last two paragraphs: But what about the other tribes of the so-called Lost Ten Tribes? While the birthright was Joseph s, and its blessings have come to the British Commonwealth of Nations and the United States of America, yet the other eight tribes of Israel were also God s chosen people. They, too, have been blessed with a good measure of material prosperity but not the dominance of the birthright. We lack space for a detailed explanation of the specific identity of all of these other tribes in the nations of our twentieth century. Suffice it to say here that there is ample evidence that these other eight tribes have descended into such northwestern European nations as Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Northern France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway. The people of Iceland are also of Viking stock. The political boundaries of Europe, as they exist today, do not necessarily show lines of division between descendants of these original tribes of Israel. Most of the tribes of Israel have lost their identity, because they have rejected the sign that God gave them, which would identify them as being his people, and him as being their God. Read Exodus chapter thirty one, beginning in verse thirteen: Speak to the Children of Israel, saying, verily my Sabbaths you shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am the Lord that doth sanctify you. To sanctify simply means; to set apart for Gods holy purpose. Drop down now and read verse seventeen: It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed. This sign would have permanently identified the tribes of Israel as being Gods chosen people, to them as well as to the rest of the world, and forever, throughout all generations. That is one of the great sins of Israel: after they had come in to the Promised Land and become a great nation, they began to want to be like all of the other nations around them. They began worshiping the false pagan gods and refused to keep Gods Sabbaths. Eventually God, after much warning from his prophets, let them be taken into captivity by the Assyrians, (which are known today as the Germans) and they have lost their identity. They think they are gentiles today. The Jews continued on in Palestine for some time, but eventually they also followed the example of the other ten tribes, and they went into captivity to Babylon. After seventy years, under the leadership of Ezra, and Nehemiah God let some of them return to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. These Jews learned in captivity that pg. 2

3 they had better keep Gods Sabbath from then on. The Jews still do keep the Sabbath, and they are known by their identifying sign to the entire world, that they are the chosen people of God. The rest of the tribes of Israel, like the pagans keep Sunday, (in honor of the pagan sun god) and under the Roman Emperor Constantine, the Sunday worship was forced on the Christian Church organization as the official day of worship. True Christians didn t accept this Satanic identifying mark that was branded on the church still calling its self Christian. True Christians had to go under ground to avoid persecution, as the visible organization began gaining strength and power with the Roman Government. This is where the professing Christian Church began her fornication with the kings of this world, instead of waiting, and being faithful to her future husband, Christ. She is spoken of as the great whore that rode and guided the Beast (Roman Empire) in the seventeenth chapter of Revelations. Later, after the fall of Rome (deadly wound, Rev.13:3), the empire was revived by the Pope and Justinian which recognized that the pope is ruler supreme even above the emperor. This revival of the Roman Empire by the pope came to be known as a Holy Roman Empire. This healed the deadly wound (Rev. 13: 3). This empire now began forcing the entire world that it ruled over to accept the mark of this beast, and be converted to Catholic doctrines, or face persecution, and death. Six heads of this religious empire have come and gone now, and the final and seventh head of this Beast is now rising in Europe. This final revival of the so called Holy Roman Empire will have ten horns, which is: ten kingdoms will give their power and government to this pope and dictator, or Emperor that is about to come on the scene. This mark will be forced again on the entire world. Europe will control the financial aspect of the entire world with their new system of solving the world s financial crisis. The pope will make sure that all who buy or sell (carry on commerce) will be in compliance with their Satanic religious teachings, including violating Gods Sabbath commandment, and keeping Sunday instead. You can scoff at what I say if you like, but God says that a time of Great Tribulation is coming on the end time descendants of Israel. You need to read my article which is posted on the internet also, about The Great Tribulation. Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong warned the nations of Israel about this time of trouble for over fifty years, until his death on January 16, Mr. Armstrong wrote numerous books and articles in Magazines of which he published, as well as being on many radio, and television stations to warn the people of Israel, and the whole world that they had better repent of their sins and yield themselves in obedience to God and his laws, yet the majority of the people didn t believe him or God. I am a voice for Almighty God telling you that this punishment and correction is upon our peoples. You won t believe me either, but God Almighty will make you believe it whether you like it or not, and soon! God loves Israel and he is determined to correct as many as he can, even though it means very painful and strong punishment. Those who will not be corrected will pg. 3

4 be destroyed! God will not let anyone live past his final wrath unless they are humbled and willing to submit to obey God from the heart. This time of tribulation and punishment is coming on us swiftly! The financial crisis of our nations and the whole world is setting the stage for the final revival of the so called Holy Roman Empire to rise one last time. When Europe chooses a dictator, they will turn on the United States, and Great Britain, and Israel in a monstrous betrayal. The evil of Adolf Hitler was nothing as to what is coming! The pope will also wield power over the whole world through this empire. People will be forced to keep Sunday instead of Gods seventh day Sabbath, if they want to buy and sell. The Europeans will come up with some world banking system which will at first seem to solve the causes of the financial crisis, at least for the European empire. They will insist that all nations that want to carry on commerce with them be in compliance with Catholic teachings. But Almighty God says that to do this is in disobedience to him and his laws. Those who let the Sunday Mark of the Beast, or Roman Empire be forced on them will suffer the wrath of God! God will make his people prove that they will obey God and do his will even if they lose their lives in the flesh. True and faithful Christians know that God will soon resurrect his dead to eternal life. This will require faith like, this faithless generation doesn t know. The Great Tribulation is not Gods wrath, but God will allow this evil empire to once again bring into bondage the Israelite people, because of their rebellion and sinful way in which they choose to live. The United States and British peoples delight in their adultery, fornication, lies, deceptions, unrighteous business practices, lust, pornography, selfishness, vanity, greed, Idolatry, thievery, and all other unrighteousness, even murder of their children. What a selfish, evil and ungodly people this is! We are very fortunate that God even allows such a people to have an opportunity to be chastised and corrected. But God is very merciful to those who will repent from the heart and surrender to let God lead us out of our wicked, sinful ways. Gods hope is that when our cities are laid waist, and the land is full of the stench of death, and diseases are feeding on the peoples flesh, and the people are starving for food and clean water, and people are able to see how selfish and greedy everyone is, fighting over some little food, and killing and eating their own young to try staying alive, women being raped by some soldiers, and being hauled off to become slaves in some foreign land: Then maybe some few will consider that their pleasures in sin was only stupidity and ignorance, and will decide to turn wholeheartedly to obey God and his laws. If they do, then they won t have to suffer the wrath of God. And God will wipe away their tears and lead them in the way of life that produces good results. Satins way is what has caused all this evil to be on them. The people will then learn to resent and hate that, which they use to get their selfish pleasure from. The people must learn that sin is evil, not just because God said so, but by experience they will know that the end pg. 4

5 results of sin is bitter, and painful, and very wrong. Today, though people get their thrills and pleasure from sin. They think they can profit from sin. They will painfully know better then. You may hate me for speaking this evil against you, but I, like God tell you the truth for your own good. Satan has deceived you into thinking that what God calls sin is really good, and pleasurable, and profitable. You will find out the difference, and God is right. Satan doesn t want you to think about the consequences of sin, but just focus on the pleasure of the moment. My friends, there is a hereafter and sin will collect its dews. Think about this for a few minutes: What are the costs or sorrows or dues for adultery? Satan tells you that you will get the sexual pleasure of having another man, or woman as the case may be; you get the thrill of knowing that other men or women find you attractive; you get your lustful mind and body satisfied. Satan also says that what he or she doesn t know won t hurt them. What a lie! Satan tells you that you can sneak around and never get caught. And most of all Satan just overwhelms you with your lust so that you don t really want to think about the consequences. So are you deceived yet? Don t kid yourself; most of our modern society today is guilty of this evil. Now let s look at this from a truthful perspective: If you allow yourself to commit adultery, you have crossed a line, just like in committing murder, or beating your wife; once you cross that line it will be much easier to do it again, and again and again, and sooner or later you will get caught. But just suppose that you are sneaking enough that your mate never knows at least in this life time; there will still be division between you and your mate. You will not be able to treat your mate with the needed love, affection and devotion to make you both happy. You will know what you have done and you will have some degree of guilt feelings. Because you can t be the loving, faithful, devoted, and affectionate mate that you should be, he or she won t be able to treat you with the love, affection and trust that you need. Your sexual relation with your mate will not be as good and affectionate as it should be. Your heart will be lusting and fantasizing after one of your whoremonging affairs. This will drive a wedge between you and your mate. You won t be totally committed to your mate so you can t behave as if you are. Your mate will perceive this, and it will affect how he or she will treat you. You can t sin and get away with it. What s more you will become a liar, and this will weigh in on your conscience and ability to treat your husband or wife as you should. Your whole life will become a lie. You will know that your relationship with your mate is only as good as you can lie and deceive. This will even discourage you from trying to make your marriage work. Your marriage will not be happy, even if you do stay together. Most of the time the other mate does find out about your betrayal and adultery: this will cause severe mental and emotional pain in the other mate. This pain can t be over stated, for you were his or her other half. He or she will feel that they have lost everything worth living pg. 5

6 for. The mate will become very depressed, and angry, and hurt, and these feelings won t just go away. They are permanent scars. If a man is caught stealing from you; it is possible for him to make restitution and mend the situation, but when a man s wife has been giving something so sacred as her love, affection, and sex to another man, then there is not anything that can make restitution. Hurt, anger, and bitterness will fill the man. Even if the man is a Godly man and is willing to forgive; His ability to trust her with his whole heart in the future is greatly damaged. And that is assuming that the adulterous wife has truly repented and come clean with complete honesty. But most of the time she will continue to hide as much of her affairs as possible. The man will also suspect that, and that will greatly affect how he will be able to trust, and treat her in the future. If the adulterous mate has had time to truly repent of this betrayal before the other mate finds out about it, it will cause him or her much pain and anguish also, for now the betrayed mate isn t sure if it is even worth trying to repair the marriage. Even if it is possible to repair the marriage, it will always have this painful scar on it, and you will always know that you are the one responsible for it. Most of the time, this kind of betrayal will cut so deep into the other mate s heart, that it will be impossible for him or her to truly forgive you. You know what this means; divorce. Divorce is a whole different set of pain and suffering to be experienced, especially if you have children. The children will also feel betrayed by both parents; not to mention what will become of the children. Will they have a happy loving set of parents to look out for them? Most of the time, not! Will they be divided up from each other? Often times; Yes! Will the children have a strong loving father to teach and guide them in the right direction of their lives? No! Many times the mother will have her lovers running in and out and abusing the kids! Or a step mom that could care less about his children! How will the children be cared for financially? A lot of men that think they love their children will resent paying child support to a woman which they view as a no good, lying, cheating whore. So many split up couples fight about this, as well as who will keep the kids, and when. The children will feel unloved and betrayed by both parents. Divorce is not a right solution, but only a way to painfully cope with a very bad situation. A man, or woman that has been cheated on, most likely will never be able to trust with their whole heart, anyone of this world ever again. All of this evil that I have wrote about here is only a very small part of the evils that plague a couple when one of them lets Satan deceive them into thinking that a little extra martial affair, or a little playful sexual stimulation would be fun and satisfying. What fools! If you think that God was wrong when he said adultery is evil, then you will have to taste of the bitterness of it! And believe me, you will. This nation that we live in won t even prosecute a person for adultery! Is it any wonder that America s children are mostly living in broken homes? The men and women of this nation try to deal with their rejection and pain by just blaming it all on the other mate and going off and doing the same stupid stuff again! Are we not a sick nation? pg. 6

7 Children growing up in broken homes produce all kinds of other social and behavioral problems that our society is plagued with today. Juvenile delinquents, and all of the evils that they do; drug abuse, premarital sex (fornication), thefts, school dropouts, teen age pregnancy, unwanted babies, abortion (child murder), all kinds of crime, and complete ignorance in how to live and start their families in a way that would produce good results. They will repeat the evils of their parents plus much more, for they will lack even the wisdom that their parents were taught. Is not adultery evil? Yes! But our society promotes promiscuous behavior in every aspect of it; Television, computers, advertising, entertainment of all sorts, Even the news channels try to seduce men and women with a seductive dressed and acting personality to present the news instead of a serious minded man. Even young girls by the age of ten or eleven want to dress like sluts! Our society don t teach our young girls to have respect for good family values, no they most of all want to be the center of boy s and men s attention, and lust. Our society is producing a generation of little heart breakers. What will their marriages, and families be like? If you don t know then you need to read what I have written again. If you don t believe me or if you just prefer not to think about it, as most of our society does; then you will have to learn by hard experience, and pain, and anguish, and hurt. God help the United States of America and Britain, and all Israel wake up! Satan is loose and is already starting to pour out his wrath and hate on this Israelite people, but it will get much worse. The suffering of the Israelite nations will be worse than any man can envision in his mind. Is there any hope in turning things around? No, you know there isn t. A righteous and wise man can teach the right knowledge, even as I try to do, but the people will reject that knowledge. Read what God inspired the prophet Hosea to write: My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: Because you have rejected knowledge I will also reject you, that you shall not be any priest to me; seeing thou hast forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children. As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. They eat up the sin of my people, and set their heart on their iniquity. And there shall be, like people, like priest and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings. (Hosea 4: 6-9) The only hope is when God Almighty lets this evil generation experience the great tribulation so that they will be humbled, and made willing to hear, and obey the voice of God through his true prophets. Today this whole world is so deceived about God and his word, that the people think that the true prophets are false prophets. But God will soon take care of that. God will soon show the whole world by super natural miracles and wonders and plagues, who is Gods witnesses and who are the false prophets, even as he did in the days of Elijah, and in the days of Moses. If this doesn t come to pass then you will know that I was a false prophet. But when it does come to pass, then fear, be humbled and obey God, and not all of the false ministers that cover the face of the earth. You think that I am being critical and harsh, but God tells his prophets to: Cry aloud, spare not, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and pg. 7

8 show my people their transgression and the house of Jacob (Israel) their sins. (Isaiah 58: 1) That is what I am trying to do. God help you heed! So far I have only touched on the sin of adultery, first because it is one of the most destructive and prevalent of all sins. Yet when we cover other sins you will see that all sin is very evil just like God Almighty says. Satan has chosen sex to be a key tool in his hands to cause the people to destroy themselves. Marriage is the institution by which God chose for man to reproduce, build families and fill the earth with righteous children. Families are the building blocks of a nation. When the family unit is destroyed and perverted then, so also goes the nation. Satan can better control and rule, to their own hurt, the children who are from broken ungodly homes. There is good reason why Satan uses Sex to seduce the people into living a way that produces all of this division and hurt, and strife among families. God Almighty created man and woman in the image of God and his future wife, the true Church, which will also be born again as God beings at Christ s, soon second coming. Sex is also in the Image of the Intimate joyful, ecstatically pleasant, and loving relationship that the born again church will have with Christ. There is nothing else like sharing some great wonderful pleasurable intimate time with your faithful, loving, kind, hard working, honest, outgoing, and beautiful wife, while you both are completely naked, both physically and spiritually. This is the most sacred and wonderful, and satisfying relationship that is possible for a man and woman to experience. When you know that you share this loving, open, honest, and pleasant relationship with your dear wife, and no one else can dare be involved, makes it even more special to you. God created the physical nerves to be able to produce, and experience such climatic and ecstatic pleasure together with your mate that you are even bound together by your nervous systems to some degree. Knowing that no one else can share in this loving and sexual relationship makes you feel even more special and endeared to each other. When Christ is united together with his bride they will sing a new song that no other man will be able to learn except them. (Rev. 14: 3) I can imagine that, that will be some kind of pleasure, knowing that we are so exclusive to Christ! Finally being united with Christ, after this experience, of struggling and being persecuted in this world and suffering through trials, and pain caused by the sins of this Satan influenced world, will be some kind of wonderful! Yes Satan knows what Gods wonderful purpose for our sexual relationships are for, and what it is a type of in his kingdom; and he hates it with a passion. Satan knows that in order for us to be able to experience the pleasures of sex, that God made it to have a driving power, in our lives. God intended for sex to be used in accordance with his laws and real love, but Satan knows that if he deceives us into just forgetting about using sex in true love and marriage; then he can use this wonderful blessing from God against us. When sex is used in disobedience to God and his Laws then it becomes a curse against us; that is one of the most powerful forces to pg. 8

9 resist and overcome. Unrighteous use of sex also causes as much pain, suffering and heartache as is the pleasure when used rightly. Unrighteous use of sex causes division, hate, murder, divorce and all its evils, and Satan knows we can get hooked on it. Yes Satan wants to cause us to become divided, instead of united by our sex and love. Satan seduces you to lust, and think that, is love. Lust divides, while Real Love unites. If Satan can divide us against one another and cause such hurt, pain, and heartache and suffering, then he knows that God will not give such people eternal life; it would only be a curse to have to live forever in a wretched state of mind and character. God is more merciful than that; so he said that the wages of sin is death. (Romans 6: 23) God is about to bring this whole world to judgment, and those who will repent will be lead in the way of eternal life and happiness, and those who will not repent will be destroyed. The righteous is about to inherit this earth. (Matt. 5: 5) (Romans 4:13) To know if a thing is good or evil, one must; first trust in the word of God, then look to the end of it to see what kind of fruits it bears. It is hard for young and shallow thinking people to see that sex outside of marriage is wrong: it offers pleasure, excitement, feelings of being loved, and ecstatic physical sensations. So what could possibly be wrong with it? Well that is how Satan wants people to view it, very shallow. But when you look to the consequences of it, in the long run it s not so pleasant. When you are in the midst of a very painful divorce, and your children are suffering, and your character is discovered to those that trusted in you, then the pleasure that you had in your wicked affair will fade away. Look to the end of a matter to know if it is good or evil, and learn that God is right. He cares for what really is good for us. When you know this you will be happy if you do it. I know that most people that read this will not be inclined to turn and repent of their adultery and fornication; they don t believe that they will have to pay the price that God warns them about. God seems unreal to them. Most people will just deny that I am speaking the truth. They prefer to say well the way I see it.., then give themselves some justification for continuing on in their sins. Look at what some of the sins that God says that people will refuse to repent of, even after they have been punished, and plagued through the sixth of the Trumpet plagues: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornications, nor of their thefts. (Rev. 9: 21) So as a result of being so stiff necked and rebellious, and fully set to enjoy their foolish sins, they will have to have God pour out the seven last plagues (which fills up the wrath of God) on them. Those people who continue to refuse to repent and humble themselves before God, to obey him will be killed by the sword of God, which is his word. (Rev. 19: 21) Yes, God will win! And all people on earth will be made willing to quit lying, and start admitting to the truth, and stop their adulteries, and stop taking advantage of other people for selfish gain, and stop all manner of disobedience to God and his pg. 9

10 laws. Any human that lives after Christ has poured out his vials of wrath on the disobedient people of this earth, will be submitted to and obeying God and his then born again saints. The point is God and his faithful saints (Christians) will win! Righteousness will eventually fill this earth. The earth will become as full of the knowledge of the true God, as the oceans are full of water. (Isaiah 11: 9) All manner of sins, including sexual sins will become a thing of the past when the deceiving spirit that rules this earth is cast off his throne, and Christ takes over as King of kings and Lord of lords. People will learn the true values, and the way of life that will produce happiness, peace, unity, and prosperity. Christ and his bride will rule the earth, and those people who will repent and turn to the true God in tribulation at the end of this world will still be mortal humans, but they will learn the way of peace, and will be given the opportunity to develop holy righteous character and eventually be given eternal life also, if they remain true to God after the devil is released at the end of the one thousand year Sabbath. If I gave you all of the scriptures to prove everything I have written here; you still would not believe me. Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong did write numerous books, and booklets that gave clear proof that what he taught is the truth, yet the people still didn t believe. So I will just rely on Almighty God to prove to you by bringing to pass the things that I say. We are living in those days when it will happen. God help you believe and repent.
