“Don’t Give Me Anything,” Jacob Replied. “But If You Will Do This One Thing For Me, I Will Go On Tending Your Flocks And Watching Over Them
Satan the Deceiver and His Willing Accomplice, Jacob — Then Who Is Israel?
4. Backsliding is a hard school! Look at Jacob in the school of Laban: Jacob was really crooked until he had to work under someone even MORE crooked than HE was! But it finally BROKE him, & look what he gained. BEFORE his downfall, he was only “Jacob the Deceiver,” but AFTERWARDS, he was a “PRINCE of God & Man”!– Genesis 35:10-11 . (Benefits of Backsliding (PDF))
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
33. HE SAYS, “IN THE LATTER TIME OF THEIR KINGDOM, WHEN THE TRANSGRESSORS ARE COME TO THE FULL, a king of fierce countenance, & understanding dark sentences, shall stand up!” Now here we get for the very first time the beginning of an actual description of the appearance of the looks of the Antichrist! MB: And also a description of the appearance of his accomplice
34. THIS CAN BE SPEAKING OF NONE OTHER THAN THE ANTICHRIST HIMSELF, that last fierce & awesome, awful, World king of the whole World! Understanding dark sentence, witchcraft, deviltry, demonic powers & messages, because he will be the Devil’s own man, the false messiah, the Devil in the flesh! This will be the climax of his power on Earth, of his witchcraft, of his influence through all that are evil, to take control of the World! (Daniel 8)
“In the Latter Time, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, & understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power”–by Satan’s power–“& he shall destroy wonderfully, & shall prosper, & practice, & shall destroy the mighty & the holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; & he shall magnify himself in his heart, & by peace shall destroy many.”
CHAPTER 30
Genesis 30:31 “What shall I give you?” he asked. “Don’t give me anything,” Jacob replied. “But if you will do this one thing for me, I will go on tending your flocks and watching over them:
30:32 Let me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-coloured lamb and every spotted or speckled goat. They will be my wages.
30:33 And my honesty will testify for me in the future, whenever you check on the wages you have paid me. Any goat in my possession that is not speckled or spotted, or any lamb that is not dark-colored, will be considered stolen.”
30:34 “Agreed,” said Laban. “Let it be as you have said.”
MB: Now, I may not be understanding this arrangement between Laban and Jacob so clearly, but what I believe transpired between these two deceivers is this: instead of taking wages, Jacob tells Laban that he will use his sheep on a type of agistment basis. Jacob will use Laban’s adult sheep and goats as breeding stock, and when they give birth he will take only the offspring of specific colors. After the six-year contract is served, he—Jacob—will return Laban’s breeding stock along with all the offspring that do not fit the agreed-upon color specifications. It’s very similar to what Bankers do with the money you put in their care, and with the same results too. They make all the money and you get very low interest rates.
30:35 That same day he removed all the male goats that were streaked or spotted, and all the speckled or spotted female goats (all that had white on them) and all the dark-colored lambs, and he placed them in the care of his sons.
30:36 Then he put a three-day journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob continued to tend the rest of Laban’s flocks.
30:37 Jacob, however, took fresh-cut branches from poplar, almond and plane trees and made white stripes on them by peeling the bark and exposing the white inner wood of the branches.
30:38 Then he placed the peeled branches in all the watering troughs, so that they would be directly in front of the flocks when they came to drink. When the flocks were in heat and came to drink,
30:39 they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.
30:40 Jacob set apart the young of the flock by themselves, but made the rest face the streaked and dark-coloured animals that belonged to Laban. Thus he made separate flocks for himself and did not put them with Laban’s animals.
30:41 Whenever the stronger females were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs in front of the animals so that they would mate near the branches,
30:42 but if the animals were weak, he would not place them there. So the weak animals went to Laban and the strong ones to Jacob.
30:43 In this way the man grew exceedingly prosperous and came to own large flocks, and maidservants and menservants, and camels and donkeys.
CHAPTER 31
31:1 Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were saying, “Jacob has taken everything our father owned and has gained all this wealth from what belonged to our father.”
Free Will And Majesty Of Choice—God’s Learning Curve
35. …God Himself hasn’t been able to control them. “You mean God can’t control the Jews?”–Not as long as there’s free will & choice. He’s got to stop free will & choice to [do that].
36. HE CAN CONTROL THEM, OF COURSE, HE’S GOT THE POWER, but as my mother used to preach a sermon called “Why Doesn’t God Stop Hitler?”, do you know what the answer was? If God had to step in & intervene & stop Hitler, He would have to stop every sinner in the World from doing his sin & wickedness. He would have to intervene in the power of choice & the will of man & free will & man’s determining his own fate.
37. HE WOULD’VE HAD TO STOP ADAM & EVE IN THE GARDEN!–Not just forbidden them to eat from the Tree or warned them not to eat it, but He would’ve had to stop them from eating it. He would’ve had to prevent them from eating completely. But in order for them to have free will & choice & for the experiment to succeed–if you want to call it that–or the whole plan of God to succeed, He had to let them go ahead & have their own way.

So Who Is Israel?
42. ONLY BELIEVERS ARE NOW THE CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM BY FAITH, as God’s Word itself says ( Galatians 3:7 ), & Abraham was not a Jew! Think of that! He was born long before Judah & the Jews, the children of Israel or Jacob the Deceiver, his grandson down the line–Abraham, Isaac & Jacob. Jacob’s name was changed to Israel & his son was Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, so Abraham was three or four generations before the Jews–he was not a Jew!–He was a son of Heber the Hebrew!–Not a Jew! ( Genesis 14:13 .)
43. BUT HE WAS A BELIEVER IN GOD & A CHILD OF GOD WITHOUT BEING A JEW, because he was a child of God by faith in God & His coming Messiah! He looked forward to the Saviour of the World, the Son of God, Jesus the Christ, Yeshua Ha Messiah. As we now look backward to His death, he looked forward to His death that God promised, & that all of those who believed in Him would be the children of Abraham by faith.
44. I AM A CHILD OF GOD & A SON OF ABRAHAM BY FAITH IN GOD & HIS SON JESUS CHRIST, therefore we [all believers in Jesus] are the true Israel of God! We are the only genuine Jews of today! We are the only chosen people of God & the children of God & the children of Abraham today! …
45. HE SAID, “THE CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM SHALL BE CAST OUT”–the former so-called children of the Kingdom, the Jews. Jesus told His disciples, “Ye shall sit down in the Kingdom of God with Abraham, Isaac & Jacob at the table of God, & the children of the Kingdom shall be cast out for their unbelief!” (Matthew 8:11,12 .) Only the believers in Jesus Christ, like me & like you, if you have Jesus & are a Christian, will sit with Jesus in His Kingdom! (Who’s a Jew (PDF))
17. … The Jew, having rejected Jesus Christ the Son of God, the Messiah & his only Savior, therefore he is no longer a Jew!–And the Jews are no longer Israel! And Israel is no longer the Promised Land, the Holy Land of God! … –And I know it because I’ve been there & seen them!
So Who Is Jacob?
Prophecy:
It has been said: to catch a thief you have to think like one. Well, we can help your carnal mind avoid delving into that dark world through your use of prophecy. You’ve collected some interesting material from the Bible and MO letters that paint a pretty clear picture as to who’s behind the scenes pulling the strings—Satan—that’s the bottom line.
But the thing is, he can’t do it alone. He needs a stand-in, a willing accomplice—he found that in the Revelation 3:9er. They were easily bought off—Satan’s “You can have the whole world” scheme worked well on them. Their partnership works on the principle that every man has a price, which is really the same as the “You can have the whole world” scheme, only said a little differently.
Most of the people in the world don’t want to rule the world, or even a country or big corporation. They are happy just to be king of their little plot of land. And Satan is willing to give it to them—but not just a little farm plot where everyone can be somewhat self-sufficient, like it will be in the millennium. No Satan doesn’t want it that way.
Remember he doesn’t agree with our Father’s plan of free will and majesty of choice. Yet he has to work with the idea to some extent, since it is our Father’s will that every man be given the two gifts—and this is where the deception comes in. His plan is to make everyone think they have free will and majesty of choice. Just like in the story of Laban and Jacob, Jacob’s plan to extract wages from Laban would only work if Laban was agreeable. So Jacob’s first line was, “I don’t want anything. You don’t have to pay me—just give me a start-up, and I’ll take it from there.”
It is kind of what bankers do. They get everyone to put money in their bank for safekeeping, and then use that money to make millions. There is a degree of magic in all of this also. Jacob was obviously up to some sort of juju, using all those little sticks to turn the situation to his favor. Well, Satan and the Revelation 3:9ers are also up to some of their own juju, and that’s brought out clearly in the other verses shared with you earlier.
Satan used his light-bending powers to deceive—first the angels that followed his rebellion, and then the whole world. The Revelation 3:9ers are just as duped as everyone else. So he’s managed to get a very large slice of creation to act out his plan of ruling the world, all through bribery and deceit.
So we are looking at a very, very powerful spell whose two main elements are bribery and deceit. These are mixed with sin—pride, greed, and the like—all taken and supplied willingly, for man chose to sin. So everything is, in some way, according to God’s will. The Devil is audacious enough to believe he can outsmart God.
The Last Line
If you haven’t fully realized it by now, let Me point out one vital fact to you as you fulfill your destiny of breaking the very, very powerful spell Satan has cast upon all Creation. You have the Tree of Knowledge (to make you wise) bequeathed to you. You did not take it by force; it was given to you because of your desire to abide with Me—your Lover—and to give Me all your worship and admiration.
What helped bring you to that place of giving your all to Me were the Words of David. The church nearly succeeded in covering the truth, but your own Endtime prophet uncovered the lies and traditions. The rest of the story has been told many times, so let us get right to the last line.
Now at this crucial point in history you have in your hands the power of God in the form of the Seven Thunders. I implore you this one last time to use it for My glory and for the glory of the Kingdom—to break the spell and set the course of history back on its original path. It is like all those fairy tales you’ve read where evil is defeated and everyone lives happily ever after. Our partnership of love and devotion is now in position to break forever the partnership of evil. I know you are with Me. Fear not. I will do all in My power to help you stay the course, if only you never loosen your hold on the weapons in your hands. Look nowhere but to Me, the Keys, and My Word.
Our Statement Of Faith
We believe that one of the angels, “Lucifer, son of the morning” (Isaiah 14:12), who was the mightiest of the archangels, through pride, jealousy and ambition, sinned and fell, and thereby became Satan [the Devil], the infernal foe of all righteousness. A great company of angels followed him in his immoral fall, and thus became demons, evil spirits which are presently active as his agents and associates in the execution of his malignant and God-defying purposes. We believe that Satan is the original perpetrator of sin, and that he, through subtlety, tempted and led our first parents, Adam and Eve, into transgression and their fall from their sinless state; thereby subjecting them and their posterity to his own power, which can only be broken and defeated by the power of God. Satan’s evil spirits are now in possession of many, and are largely responsible for the rampant rage of crime and wickedness presently flooding the world.
We hold Satan to be the open and avowed enemy of God and Man, who, as a usurper, now rules as the unholy “god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4). He will be absolutely defeated at the Second Coming of Christ in the Battle of Armageddon,
