  1. Do you know the Bible is God's Holy Word? Do

  2. you know it is inspired, in errant, and infallible? If so, like, share,

  3. subscribe and support this podcast. So we are mere Nathal

  4. Ministries and now Redemption draweth nigh. Welcome, lady and gentlemen,

  5. welcome to the program. We are your host Jose and Matthew.

  6. Tonight we are going ever deeper into the Book of

  7. the Twelve Prophets, as is its septuage at name. This

  8. is one book in the Masoretic text. It's always been

  9. one book. However, the differentiation between the Hebrew and the

  10. Greek it is quite extensive, especially by way of its division.

  11. It's it's divided differently, and its relay of information is

  12. very different. So let's get Jose's opening comments on these

  13. first fifteen verses of Hoseiah chapter two.

  14. Well, Matthew, you know, it's it kind of it kind

  15. of follows what we read in chapter one where they

  16. described Israel, and we kind of looked into the events

  17. that happened in Jezreel. And so I can't help but

  18. reading this second chapter and think about Jezebel, Matthew, think

  19. about what the what the message to the Church of Tretya,

  20. what it says about Jezebel, you know, what it says

  21. about Babylon in the Book of Revelation. These are all

  22. the thoughts that came to me, Matthew as I was

  23. reading through this. You know, you have your choice, Matthew.

  24. You can either be the woman that's taken to the

  25. place that's prepared, or you can be play the harlet.

  26. I mean that that's that's your choice that you make.

  27. And and in this chapter of Josea, I just kept

  28. seeing that repeated over and over. If you repent and

  29. you fall on your knees right and try out to God,

  30. he will show mercy, Matthew. But if you don't, if

  31. you're hard hearted, and if you you know, chase after

  32. what's what's in your heart, then then he's gonna he's

  33. gonna throw you out, Matthew. That's that's what I read

  34. here in this chapter. And again that's that's kind of boy.

  35. It's just uh, it's it's almosts it's just scary, Matthew.

  36. When God just makes it clear, you know, he just

  37. comes out and says it, and I just get a

  38. little a little pause in my heart because it's it's

  39. he's not He's not mincing words in this chapter and

  40. I and I really hope that's what the listener understands

  41. as they read to this chapter.

  42. I can only reinforce this by two verses, verses three

  43. and five from Luke Chapter thirteen, straight from the mouth

  44. of the Lord Jesus Christ. Repent or you will likewise perish.

  45. Amen.

  46. Okay, it's it is heaven or hell. Jose Yes, you

  47. have a choice to either live forever or die forever.

  48. That really is what it states. And jose Chapter two

  49. is very unpopular with the majority of the Westernized Church

  50. right now because the Westernized Church has for some reason

  51. been lured astray into believing that there's a certain ethnic

  52. group on this planet that they have another way to

  53. enter the Kingdom of Heaven outside His Blood of the

  54. New Covenant. That is a lie straight from the devil's mouth.

  55. There is an entire system of eschatology and interpretation based

  56. upon this very lie that for some reason, there's a

  57. special ethnic group that is genetically related to the Lord

  58. Jesus Christ. And know there is not that entity. In

  59. Joseiah is presented as this bride that has made herself

  60. out to be a hormit. Now you need to understand

  61. that the blood of the New Covenant right out of

  62. the mouth of the Lord Jesus Christ. If everybody remembers,

  63. if you go back to communion in Matthew chapter twenty six,

  64. what does the Lord Jesus Christ say about the one

  65. He says, this is the blood of the New Covenant.

  66. Make no mistakes about it. The New Covenant is defined

  67. in Jeremiah chapter thirty one, Verses thirty one through thirty four,

  68. and this New Covenant applies to two different groups, the

  69. House of Judah and the House of Israel. You're getting

  70. ready to find out who those entities are. Yes, one

  71. of them is ethnically Jews. You can only enter the

  72. Kingdom of Heaven even if you are genetically related to

  73. the Lord Jesus Christ, through repenting and the accepting of

  74. his blood sacrifice and enter into the New Covenant. Guess,

  75. because you are a new at the return of Christ

  76. does not mean you're automatically going to be saved. No

  77. one is automatically saved. No ethnic group is the master race.

  78. Both groups must partake in the blood of the New Covenant.

  79. So you need to understand this is that this is maximum.

  80. This is maximum the illegal literature in the Synagogue of Satan.

  81. These first fifteen verses are literally outlaw literature in the

  82. Synagogue of Satan, because this clearly defines that the old

  83. Israel it was twelve tribes, wasn't it, jose Yes, it

  84. was twelve tribes of ethnic israelis only one of those

  85. tribes survived the wrath of God, just one. Romans Chapters nine, ten,

  86. and eleven fills you in that all the gentiles entered

  87. into the New Covenant, and they fulfill, they fullfill Israel.

  88. We make up those eleven other tribes. This is from

  89. the Greek word play Roma and Greek. Write this down

  90. in your stronges concordance. That's g forty one thirty eighth.

  91. We are the fullfillment of Israel. We fulfill all those

  92. dead branches that were cut off. You're going to get

  93. that right here from here on out. He calls Judah

  94. one thing, and he calls the new Israelites something else.

  95. So I hope you're ready for Hoseh chapter two to

  96. say that, because he's getting ready to come out and

  97. say it. That the mother where we came from, of course,

  98. is rabbinic Judaism, correct, Jose, Yes, all right, Rabbinic Judaism

  99. is what was ruling the temple at the time of Christ.

  100. That is why they call us a Judeo Christian religion, right, Jose, Correct,

  101. Get ready for some unpleasantries here if you're ethnically and

  102. genetically related to the Lord Jesus Christ, because he says

  103. that Old Covenant is a harlot violated and he's done

  104. with it. The Old Covenant is in Exodus chapter twenty four,

  105. verses three through eight. How do I know that off

  106. the top of my head, because I am a Christian.

  107. The Old Covenant is an Exodus chapter twenty four, verses

  108. three through eight. The New Covenant is Jeremiah chapter thirty one,

  109. verses thirty one through thirty four. It's that way and

  110. no other way. That's the only way that it is.

  111. That is literally the only way that it is. It

  112. is no other way. Now I'm setting here talking a

  113. whole lot when I can really make diseasy for everybody

  114. and just jump over to Jeremiah and read it. Write

  115. this down. It's really easy. Jeremiah thirty one, thirty one

  116. through thirty four, and it describes the New Covenant describes

  117. the new covenant very easy. Behold the days of coming,

  118. says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant

  119. with the House of Israel and the House of Judah.

  120. Not according to the covenant with I made with their

  121. fathers in the day that I took them by the

  122. hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt,

  123. my covenant which they broke though I was a husband

  124. to them, says the Lord. But this is the covenant

  125. that I will make with the House of Israel. After

  126. those days, says the Lord, I will put my Lord

  127. to their minds, and right there it on their hearts,

  128. and I will be their God, and they shall be

  129. my people. No more shall every man say to his neighbor,

  130. and every man to his brother, saying, know the Lord,

  131. for they shall know me. From the least of them

  132. to the greatest, say is the Lord, For forgive their

  133. iniquity and their sin. I will remember no more. It's

  134. that way and no other way. That's that's the way

  135. that it is. So that's who this harlot is. Take

  136. note this harlot of a wife from jose chapter one.

  137. She has two kids. Now, when you read this text,

  138. you're wanting to take out the first verse of chapter

  139. two and put it back in chapter one, aren't you, Jose, Yes,

  140. it really does. It really does tempt you to do this.

  141. But right here, from the very beginning, he says something

  142. that's very important. And wow, I've been going on quite

  143. some time, haven't I without reading it? So my opening

  144. thoughts on this chapter are deep. Contains a whole lot

  145. of information. I mean, within this very first verse of

  146. chapter two lies the entire second chapter of verse Peter,

  147. So that text is highly complicated. So I'm just going

  148. to say this, Jose, why don't you read it and

  149. we can go from there.

  150. All right, I can do that, and I'm going to

  151. be reading it from the lexum translation Matthew. So, josea

  152. chapter two, stay to your brother, my people, and to

  153. your sister shown mercy. Contend against your mother. Contend because

  154. she is not my wife and I am not her husband.

  155. And I will remove her fornication from my face and

  156. her adultery from the middle of her breaths, in order

  157. that I might strip her naked and restore her just

  158. as on the day of her birth. And I will

  159. make her a wilderness, and I will appoint her like

  160. dry land and I will kill her with thirst. And

  161. I will not show mercy to her children, because they

  162. are children of fornication, because their mother committed fornication. She

  163. who bore them, was disgracing herself, because she said, I

  164. will go after my lovers, who are giving me my

  165. bread and my water, and my clothes, and my linens,

  166. and my olive oil, and all things as many as

  167. belong to me. On account of this look, I will

  168. hedge her way with thorns, and I will wall up

  169. her roads, and she will not find her path. And

  170. she will closely pursue her lovers and not take hold

  171. of them, and she will seek them and not find them.

  172. And she will say, I will go and return to

  173. my former husband, because it was well with me then

  174. rather than now. And she did not know that I

  175. gave her the grain and the wine and the olive oil,

  176. and I multiplied money for her, but she made silver

  177. and gold for ball. Because of this, I will return

  178. and gather in my grain at its time, and my

  179. wine in its season. And I will remove my clothes

  180. and my linens, so that she might not cover her shame.

  181. And now I will uncover her impurity before her lovers,

  182. and no one will ever deliver her from out of

  183. my hand. And I will turn away all her festivities,

  184. her holidays, and her new moons and their sabbaths, and

  185. all her holy days. And I will destroy her vineyard

  186. and her fig trees, about which she said, these are

  187. my wages, which my lovers have given me. And I

  188. will make them into a witness. And the wild beasts

  189. of the field, and the birds of the heavens, and

  190. the reptiles of the earth will devour them. And I

  191. will take vengeance upon her for the days of the

  192. balls on which she used to sacrifice to them, and

  193. put on her ear rings and her necklaces, and go

  194. after her lovers but forgot me, says the Lord. Because

  195. of this behold, I will mislead her, and I will

  196. make her like a wilderness, and I will speak to

  197. her heart, and I will give her her plots of

  198. land from that place and the valley of Acor to

  199. open her understanding. And she will be made low there,

  200. like in the days of her childhood, and like in

  201. the days of her ascent out of the land of Egypt.

  202. And I'll stop right there at verse fifteen.

  203. Matthews, Why that's some hard Yes, well, I ass some

  204. hard stuff to swallow right there, right, that's hard stuff

  205. to swallow. But so you have these two children and

  206. I'm going to take us back to the New Covenant again. Okay,

  207. you need to understand what the Lord said Jeremiah, chapter

  208. thirty one, verse thirty one. It tells you who her too.

  209. Chilldrenren are It says, Behold, the days are coming, says

  210. the Lord. We want to make a new covenant with

  211. the House of Israel and with the House of Judah.

  212. That's these two children. This these twelve tribes have been decimated.

  213. Judah has been shown mercy, just the tribe of Judah,

  214. and then Israel. And we know the New Testament. We

  215. are the fulfillment of Israel. There is no taking that back. Jose.

  216. You can't get around that. You can't get around it.

  217. So we are these two children. And it's very pointed

  218. that everybody knows this, and that's why this chapter begins

  219. by saying that we are supposed to call our fellow

  220. ethnic Jews dout of it accepted Christ. We're supposed to

  221. make sure that they remember that you have been shown mercy,

  222. and we the non ethnic Jews that are in Christ

  223. we're supposed to remember that we are now called His

  224. people when we were not. It's pretty simple, isn't it.

  225. Hose Yes, yes, it's very plain language he's using. And

  226. take note, you're in a subtuagen. These two names here,

  227. given they are coming straight from and I do mean

  228. straight from. This is straight from First Peter chapter two.

  229. That's what that chapter is built off of. And this

  230. really you need to know this. It comes right from it.

  231. And if you don't know it, man, take note verse ten.

  232. There in First Peter chapter two, who once were not

  233. a pieceeople, but are now a people of God, who

  234. had not obtain mercy, but now have obtained mercy. Ladies

  235. and gentlemen, if your Bible does not have cross references

  236. back to Hoseiah chapter two. When you're in First Peter

  237. chapter two, Verse ten, I don't know what to tell you.

  238. I don't know what to tell you because First Peter

  239. chapter two is literally is literally built around Joseiah chapter two.

  240. There's no way around it. Now. I've said that in

  241. the classroom before, and everybody, you know, you see people

  242. digging through their you know, their Thompson chain reference bible. Right, Well, there,

  243. that's gotta be words. You know, gotta be footnotes. There No,

  244. many of the Bibles don't have that. They will refer

  245. you back to Joseah chapter one, verses nine and ten,

  246. but not chapter two, verse one. So, like I said,

  247. this is pretty hard hitting stuff that ladies and gentlemen.

  248. If you don't understand this before you read the rest

  249. of the Book of the Twelve Prophets, you're completely confused.

  250. If you read Amos independent of this thought, you're completely confused.

  251. If you read Micah independent of these thoughts, of this format,

  252. you're completely lost.

  253. Jose your thoughts, Yeah, Matthew, when when you shared with

  254. me that chapter in First Peter chapter two, that verse,

  255. I mean, it's it was. It was almost like it

  256. was word for word, Matthew. It's exactly what God was

  257. talking about in Hosea chapter two. Then when you read

  258. the rest of First Peter chapter two, again, he's giving

  259. you that choice to either believe and if you're write

  260. in verse seven it says, therefore, to you who believe

  261. He is precious, but to those who are disobedient, the

  262. stone which the builders rejected, has become the chief cornerstone.

  263. And the stone is stumbling and the rock of offense.

  264. So I mean, this is just again Matthew, God's telling

  265. you you have the choice. You're the one that's going

  266. to choose to believe, and you're the one that's going

  267. to choose to be obedient, that's going to choose to

  268. be the bride or you're not, and you will be rejected.

  269. So it's it's just when when when I would when

  270. I read the rest of that chapter, Matthew, it's just

  271. like it was like again, it was like I was

  272. reading Hoseah Josea chapter two. You can't you can't separate

  273. those two chapters. So it's just, uh, I don't know,

  274. I don't know why if it's so obvious, why everyone

  275. misses it, Matthew. That's that's amazing to me. But it's

  276. there and it and again it should reiterate to us

  277. as Christians, Matthew, when you've been shown this and then

  278. you reject it, I mean, it's just you're you're you're

  279. damning yourself to hell that there's nothing else I can say.

  280. It's enough to boggle your mind. And you know, let

  281. me say this. You know first better, Chapter two is

  282. built around other quote and you mentioned kid. I mean

  283. you read two of them, but it's basically built around

  284. three quotes, none of which come from Hosea chapter two. Right,

  285. none of which come from Hoseah chapter two. Everybody needs

  286. to look up these cross references and behold, this is

  287. the Lord Jesus Christ. Okay, you don't have to like it.

  288. The precious cornerstone laid in Zion is the Lord Jesus Christ.

  289. Right now, where's the ap jose? The New Testament repeatedly

  290. tells us that right now, at this point in time,

  291. he's at the right hand of the Father. Correct hymn,

  292. This is the precious cornerstone in Zion. But you know

  293. what I keep talking about it. I'm just gonna go

  294. ahead and read it here from the New King James version,

  295. first Peter, chapter two, starting in well, maybe I should

  296. just start from the top. Yeah, let's just read from

  297. the very therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy,

  298. and all evil, speaking as new born babes, desire the

  299. pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,

  300. if indeed you have tasted that, the Lord is gracious,

  301. coming to him as a living stone, rejected indeed by men,

  302. but chosen by God and precious you also as living stones,

  303. are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood,

  304. to offer of spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

  305. Therefore it is also contained in the scripture Behold, I

  306. lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect precious, and he

  307. who believes on him will by no means be put shame.

  308. Therefore you couple. He is precious. But to those who

  309. are disobedient, the stone which the builders rejected has become

  310. the chief cornerstone, and a stone of stumbling, a rock

  311. of offense. They stumbled, being disobedient to the word to

  312. which they were also appointed. But you are a chosen

  313. generational royal priesthood, a holy nation in his own special people,

  314. that we may proclaim the praises of Him who called

  315. you out of darkness into his marvelous light, who were

  316. once not a people, but now the people of God

  317. who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. Prophetically,

  318. he just said that in the Lord Jesus Christ, there

  319. is the new covenant. And if you think there is

  320. another way that you can somehow become a precious stone

  321. in god temple outside of the precious cornerstone. You are daft.

  322. That's not nor can ever happen. That can never happen.

  323. That can never happen based on I'm going to say

  324. it again, based on the entire Bible. So from this

  325. point forward, you need to know, the Jews that have

  326. accepted Jesus have been shown mercy. We the Gentiles who

  327. have accepted Jesus, are now genetically and ethnically related to

  328. the Lord Jesus Christ. He has incorporated these two children

  329. into one bride. That's what the Bible says, from Genesis

  330. to Revelation. That's what it says, and that's what it means.

  331. So these are very hard hitting verses. And he is

  332. very very pointed in his speech toward this woman of

  333. the Old Covenant that played the Harlot, and take note.

  334. Did you find it interesting how he pointed out that

  335. they served the bales. Yes, And this brings to mind

  336. the seven thousand people that was alive during Elija's stint

  337. right because Elijah gets frustrated, he said, look, they've killed

  338. all your servants. I'm the only one left, and they're

  339. coming after me. And God's deeps forward says, no, no,

  340. You're lying Elijah, I've reserved for myself seven thousand people

  341. who had not been to Nita bail. If you don't

  342. prophetically know this is also why in the Book of Revelation,

  343. God gives recompense and he says that when an event happens,

  344. he gives you that magical number of seven thousand people

  345. being killed. You're supposed to know that these two events

  346. are tied together, and you're supposed to know, prophetically, this

  347. is who was shown mercy in the days of Elijah.

  348. There was seven thousand people who would have prophetically been

  349. shown mercy. So that's what we're talking about here, and

  350. this text is expecting you to know that He's expecting

  351. you to believe what is going on. I mean, there

  352. is no doubt that these two words here in one

  353. Peter chapter two, verse ten, it is G. Twenty nine

  354. ninety two leos people. That's exactly what's in the subcuagen

  355. here in Hoseiah chapter two, verse one. And take Bigue

  356. note also to have mercy is illio that is G.

  357. Sixteen fifty three. Yes it is, yes, it is. Yeah,

  358. that's where it came from. That's its event horizon. So

  359. take note. The children of this Harlot find the New

  360. Covenant in the precious cornerstone the Lord Jesus Christ. It

  361. doesn't matter if they are ethnic Jews or not. There's

  362. only one Covenant, There's not two covenants. You know, the

  363. Bible has some very very harsh words for this original woman,

  364. doesn't it? O say, yes, you know one of the

  365. chapters that you can and I mean the whole chapter.

  366. I mean we can't. It's sixty three verses long. But

  367. have you checked out Ezekiel chapter sixteen not lately? The

  368. whole thing is describing these first fifteen verses. Uh huh. Now,

  369. the Original Covenant, those people that are ethnically related to

  370. the Old Covenant. It's not good at all. It's not

  371. good at all what it goes to describe there about

  372. this very thing. But let's go to verse two. So

  373. intend against your mother. Contend because she is not my

  374. wife and I am not her husband. I will remove

  375. her fornication from my face and her adultery from the

  376. middle of her breast. Yeah, Isaiah, chapter fifty, verse one.

  377. This is what the Lord says. What kind of divorce

  378. document was your mother with which I said, way for

  379. better sold you book. You were sold for your sins.

  380. I sent your mother away for your transgressions. There's only

  381. one way back to.

  382. God, the blood of the New Covenant, the blood of

  383. the Lord Jesus Christ spilled as the ultimate passover Lamb.

  384. It's that way, and there is no other way verse three,

  385. In order that I might strip her naked and restore

  386. her just as on the day of her birth, Now

  387. when was she birthed. Let me continue, and I will

  388. make her a wilderness, and I will point her like

  389. dry land, and we'll kill her with thirst that triggers

  390. remembrancers for me. That takes me to Jeremiah Chapter thirteen,

  391. Verses twenty two through thirty seven. Hose can you read

  392. those out of the Lexo English subtugent? Please?

  393. I sure can. And if you say in your heart,

  394. why have these things happened to me? It is because

  395. of the greatness of your jilt justice that your back

  396. parts were uncovered, that your heels were put to shame.

  397. Will an Ethiopian change his skin and the leoparded spots?

  398. And will you be able to dwell after learning evil?

  399. And I scattered them like firewood carried by the wind

  400. into the desert. This is your lot and portion for

  401. resisting me, says the Lord, since you have forgotten me

  402. and have hoped in lies, and I will uncover your

  403. back parts before your face, and your dishonor will be seen,

  404. both your adultery and your nane and the alienation of

  405. your fornication. I have seen your abominations upon the hills

  406. and in the fields. Woe to you, oh Jerusalem, because

  407. you were not cleansed after me, how much longer?

  408. So this is really this is really an expansion of

  409. that first phrase there in verse three of Josea, chapter two,

  410. in order that I might strip her naked. He goes

  411. into great detail as to why, and it's not very nice.

  412. And this part about killing her with thirst. This last

  413. phrase is exemplified in you know Exus seventeen, verse three.

  414. And the people thirsted there for what? Of course, what water?

  415. This is the great sin at Maraba. Anyway, let me continue.

  416. And the people thirsted there for water? And the people

  417. murmured against Moses, saying, for what reason have you brought

  418. us out of Egypt to cool us and our children

  419. and our livestock by thirst? Did I catch your attention?

  420. Because I always had this in my back pocket. God

  421. is literally saying in Hoseah chapter two, what the Israelites

  422. accused God of doing in Exodus chapter thirteen, verse three.

  423. Let me say that again. You need to write this down. Okay,

  424. what you're seeing here as names people and shown mercy

  425. those of the two children that prophetically is inserted into

  426. this verse. Ex Chapter seventeen, verse three. And the people

  427. thirsted there for water, and the people murmured there against Moses, saying,

  428. for what reason have you brought us out of Egypt

  429. to kill us and our children and our livestock by thirst?

  430. You'll take note that in those verses he also talked

  431. about the wild beast. Didn't he Jose there in jose

  432. chapter two? Yes, Oh, yes he did, Jose. Did you

  433. ever know that the whole reason why this is going

  434. on is because what the children of the Promise said

  435. to God in Exus chapter seventeen, verse three. Because once

  436. you see it, you can't unsee it, can't you, Right,

  437. there's literally no way to unsee this. There's no way

  438. to unsee this. This is what he's doing. This is

  439. why God's so mad, this is why and when you

  440. see it, it's just, oh my goodness, verse twelve and

  441. I will destroy her vineyard and her fing trees, by

  442. which she said, these are my wages which my lovers

  443. have given me, and I will make them into a witness.

  444. And the wild beast of the field, and the birds

  445. of the heavens, and the reptiles of the earth will

  446. devour them. He is stating in Josea chapter two, verse twelve,

  447. because of what the people of the First Covenant said

  448. when they come out of the wilderness to God in

  449. Exodus chapter seventeen, verse three. That's literally why all this

  450. is going on is because God is remembering this first

  451. ride that he made for himself when he extracted everybody

  452. out of Egypt. There's no way around this phraseology. I mean,

  453. we could stop the program right here and do extreme

  454. ex to Jesus on Exodus chapter seventeen, verse three, and

  455. oh my goodness, those Greek words will take us everywhere

  456. to the very same conclusion everything that we've already stated

  457. on this program. The old Covenant is gone. She played

  458. herself a whore, and she received from the Lord exactly

  459. what he said that he was going to do, and

  460. all he did was give her recompense based on her

  461. own words. Hindsights twenty twenty, isn't it, Jose Yes, sir.

  462. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it. Once you

  463. see it, you cannot unsee this. So it is of

  464. paramount important going forward, ladies and gentlemen, as you understand,

  465. you are one of these children. You are the child

  466. here called people. The Jews that accept Jesus is the

  467. child shown mercy. This is why the Book of the

  468. Twelve Prophets was written by God and delivered to us,

  469. the children of the New Covenant. Very hard hitting. You know,

  470. it's amazing here that in verse fifteen it brings up

  471. the valley of a core. Now, what's your thoughts on

  472. that hose?

  473. Yeah, that's that's interesting that that God brings that into

  474. into effect. Matthew. I mean, we can go back and

  475. read read where that first comes up. But there's an

  476. interesting note in Isaiah sixty five where the value of

  477. a core comes up that kind of I think gives

  478. us some more of a prophetic perspective of the value

  479. of acre, Matthew. And that's verses eight through ten of

  480. Isaiah sixty five, and it reads, this is what the

  481. Lord says, the way the grape will be found in

  482. the cluster, and they will say, do not harm it,

  483. because the bless seen is in it. So I will

  484. do for the sake of the one who serves me.

  485. I will not destroy them all on the account of

  486. this one. I will bring forth the seed from Jacob

  487. and from Judah, and they will inherit my holy mountain,

  488. and my chosen ones and my servants will inherit it,

  489. and they will dwell there, and the folds of the

  490. flock will be in the forest, and the value of

  491. acre will be like a resting place for herds for

  492. my people who have sought me.

  493. Man jose that rings in my ears. Yes, yes, And

  494. to think, okay, whoever thunk that? Whoever thunk.

  495. That?

  496. Isaiah Chapter sixty five is really an expanded commentary on

  497. the book of Josea. I thought Joseia was a major

  498. prophet and Joseiah was a minor prophet. Right now, you

  499. do understand the term minor prophet does not exist. Let

  500. me say that again, ladies and gentlemen, your shepherds have

  501. taught you that there are major profits and minor profits.

  502. Know there's not There are profits, and then there is

  503. the twelve profits that should get your attention. Those verses that,

  504. Jose Districk, because you could go back to that. I mean,

  505. we could do a whole show on Isaiah sixty five,

  506. can't we? Yep, But now you get the idea that

  507. the only genetic people left and the Covenant was going

  508. to be the tribe of Judah. Take note Isaiah sixty five, say, Israel.

  509. It takes you back before Jacob had been renamed. So

  510. guess what you are, Jose. You are the fulfillment. You

  511. make up the other tribes, and we now comprise Israel.

  512. There's only two tribes in Israel. Now there's born again

  513. Jews and there's born again Gentiles. How many times does

  514. the New Testament say that, Jose?

  515. Yeah, I've numerous times, Matthew, I couldn't even tell you, because.

  516. It says it all the time, doesn't it. I mean,

  517. that is literally something it says all the time. It

  518. says it all the time. Jose. Did you do a scan?

  519. Did you do a search on the internet for any

  520. eschatology teachings over the Book of josea chapter well one

  521. or two?

  522. No?

  523. No, I didn't, Matthew.

  524. Guess what you're gonna come up with?

  525. Probably not a whole lot.

  526. Yeah, crickets. You're going to come up with crickets because

  527. you realize that when I talked about before, by a

  528. great swath of churches in the West, they believe that

  529. these god hating ethnic Jews will be automatically saved at

  530. the return of Christ instead of obliterated. That's been incorporated,

  531. that has been indoctrinated into the church buildings. It's not good.

  532. It really isn't. And we really saw this pertaining to

  533. current events that happened not too awful long ago that

  534. triggered this war in the Promised Land. Boy, there's all

  535. kinds of Let me be very careful how I word this.

  536. There were all kinds of people that you know, were

  537. coming out publicly and supporting the Israeli government bombing schools,

  538. dismembering children. They were supporting and paying for the bombs

  539. that penetrated hospitals and blew them up. They were blowing

  540. up people in ICU units. This is true, isn't it, Jose?

  541. Yes, yep.

  542. And these people were saying, those people, if the return

  543. of Christ happened today, these murderous animals, this harlot man,

  544. did I get your attention, Jose, Let's call these child

  545. murderers a harlot. Let me ask you something, Jose. So

  546. is the United States military allowed to target hospitals? No, Matthew,

  547. tell me, don't answer this, Jose. Riddle me, everybody, Why

  548. would we, the people of the supposed strongest Christian nation

  549. on the planet, why would we financially pay for hospitals

  550. and schools to be targeted and obliterated? And then say,

  551. and then say that the perpetrators of such crimes against

  552. humanity would not be exterminated in the Battle of Armageddon,

  553. but they would marry the Lord Jesus Christ and become

  554. his bride. Who on earth would say this in a

  555. court of law? Who on earth would say this? And

  556. what would you call such a bride? You'd call her

  557. a whore, Jose, Yes, you'd call her a whore. The

  558. Lord Jesus Christ is not going to marry a whore, people,

  559. He's not. That's never going to happen. And if you

  560. are one of the ones that are alive and remain

  561. at the return of Christ, you're going to be eyeball

  562. first witness to the event. The Lord Jesus Christ is

  563. going to give you an object lesson of Hosea. Chapter

  564. two about what he meant from Genesis to revelation. If

  565. you're alive at that event, you're going to be first

  566. person witnesses to that event. Amen, jose Amen, Matthew, yep,

  567. let's just let that sink in people. Most of you

  568. listening to my voice, you support you, probably on your

  569. social media sites even displayed Israeli flags. I know some

  570. people that are associated with Marianatha ministries that did it

  571. because I saw it. This, ladies and gentlemen, is not good.

  572. It's not good at all.

  573. But take note this idea is incorporated in the very

  574. first time that this valley of a cores even mentioned.

  575. More importantly, why it's called that name? Right, Osean Right?

  576. I mean is that a good tale? I mean, when

  577. you look up this thing in the Bible and chase

  578. it down, what could God obviously be talking about this

  579. a core? So it amazes me that people don't even

  580. know why it's named that, why this valley is named

  581. a core? Is this a good story or a bad story?

  582. Would you say not.

  583. The first time it shows up, Matthew, you know it's

  584. a bad story, That's what. That's what kind of struck

  585. me about Isaiah sixty five, where it says they were

  586. not destroyed on the account of all of one. But

  587. yet when you go to the story and judges of

  588. the value of acor, they were almost all destroyed because

  589. of the transgression of one. I mean, just that mirror

  590. image there, Matthew. That's yeah, that struck me.

  591. Yeah, it ain't good, right happen It's I mean, you

  592. can call it many things, but it ain't good. Good

  593. is not one of the things you described. This type

  594. of story. But it amazes me how most people do

  595. not know where this comes from. They don't know the circumstance,

  596. they don't know the extreme measures which are carried out

  597. in this valley and why it's called that valley. It

  598. just blows me away. People really don't know. They really

  599. have no idea it. So you know, maybe I could

  600. go over there and share with them, or would you

  601. rather just describe it, Jose No, I mean, well I

  602. can describe it, but boy, I mean we need to

  603. we would need to read the whole chapter.

  604. But you know, I so this is when they're entering

  605. the Promised Land, Matthew, Joshua chapter seven, and you know

  606. God's God tells them to destroy everything, to not take

  607. anything and of course you have the one who transgresses

  608. and tries to hide certain riches from even describes it

  609. as babylonioush items, and I think I read that, and

  610. here Matthew, but actually trying to take some of those

  611. riches and some of those spoils of war and keep

  612. them for himself. And of course this upsets God, and

  613. and you know, he tells Joshua that that Israel has

  614. sin and transgressed the Covenant, and so they have to

  615. draw lots, Matthew, to figure out who who did it,

  616. And eventually they come down to Achin as being the

  617. one who's done the transgression, and all of his possessions

  618. must get burned up, Matthew, all of his possessions are destroyed,

  619. and including his cattle, they're stone, they're burned. And that

  620. that's that's what happens in that valley. So the fact

  621. that God turns it around in Isaiah sixty five, Matthew, boy,

  622. that's a that's saying a lot to me.

  623. Well, are you sure he turned it around in Isaiah

  624. sixty five or Jose chapter two? Which gonna come first?

  625. Amen?

  626. Okay, Amen, let's go ahead, And I'm gonna go ahead,

  627. and read this.

  628. I know we've only got six minutes left, but I

  629. think it's important, so I'm not gonna read tho thing

  630. on your starting Verse sixteen of Joshua, chapter seven from

  631. the Lexum English septuagen And Joshua rose early and brought forward.

  632. The people according to tribe. And the tribe of Judah

  633. was revealed, and they were brought forward according to clan,

  634. and the clan of the zech Wrights was revealed, And

  635. so they were brought forward according to the man. And Aikan,

  636. son of Zimri, son of Ziiiah, was revealed. And Joshua

  637. said to Aikin, give glory today to the Lord God

  638. of Israel, and give thanksgiving, and tell me what you did,

  639. and you must not hide it from me. And Achin

  640. replied to Joshua and said, truly, I have sinned before

  641. the Lord got of Israel in this way, and in

  642. this way I acted. And the plunder I saw an

  643. embroidered carpet and two hundred droptness of silver and one

  644. golden tongue of fifty drachmas, and I covered, I coveted

  645. and took them, and look they are hidden in my tent.

  646. And the silver is hidden under them. And Joshua sent messengers,

  647. and they ran to the tent in the camp, and

  648. these things were hidden in the tent, and the silver

  649. was under them. And they brought them from the tent

  650. and carried them to Joshua the elders of Israel, and

  651. put them in the presence of the Lord. And Joshua

  652. took aken the son of Zuriah and brought him to

  653. the ravine of Akor, as well as his sons and

  654. his daughters, and his cabs, and his donkeys, and all

  655. his sheep, and his tent and everything that was his,

  656. as well as all the people with him. And they

  657. brought him into the valley of Achor. And Joshua said

  658. to Aichen, why have you destroyed us? Made the Lord

  659. cut you off in the same way even today? And

  660. so they stoned him with stones all Israel, and they

  661. covered him with a large pile of stones. And the

  662. Lord seized his wrathful anger. Because of this, he named

  663. it the Valley of Achor. To this day, I'll take note.

  664. This is why Acor came from the tribe of Judah. Why, okay, Jose,

  665. was everybody in Judah exterminated?

  666. No?

  667. Why not you know, I love catching people by surprise

  668. when I just asked the obvious question, Do I need

  669. to read the text again? Okay? Because it was very clear,

  670. and they brought him to the ravin of a corps,

  671. as well as all sons, daughters, calves, donkeys, sheep and

  672. everything that was his, as well as all the people

  673. with him. All of his people was the entire tribe

  674. of Judah. Ose So now you're able to see twenty twenty,

  675. aren't you, ladies and gentlemen. The people who was shown

  676. mercy was the rest of the people of a corps.

  677. That's right, the rest of the tribe. They all should

  678. have been extra The tribe of Judah was the first

  679. thing to be selected. Do you not remember what I

  680. first read? Okay, let me read this again. Joshua rose

  681. early and brought forward the people according to tribe, and

  682. the tribe of Judah was revealed. The tribe of Judas

  683. should have immediately been exterminated. The survivors of this event

  684. was the remaining Jews who were not a part of this.

  685. They were not a part of Aikin's family. So prophetically

  686. you're supposed to know, well, he's calling this the valley

  687. of Acor, because we know those who were shown mercy

  688. was the rest of the members of the tribe of Judah,

  689. because it was the tribe of Judah that was selected

  690. by lot. Look, they cast lots in all of God's house,

  691. and it was revealed by the Lord it was the

  692. tribe of Judah. They should have immediately been exterminated, but

  693. they weren't. So the people that survived the Valley of

  694. Acor was the genetic Jews who were not a part

  695. of the rebellion. Right was that right? So naturally, if

  696. you're going to relay look, all of the ethnic Israelites

  697. are going to be exterminated except Judah, and from Judah

  698. only those who participate in the Blood of the New Covenant.

  699. What's a good way to relay that message that Look,

  700. there's going to be survivors from Judah, but they're only

  701. going to be like the seven thousand during the days

  702. of Elijah. How are you going to relay that message?

  703. You would relay that message by writing every single thing

  704. that's described in Joseah chapter two, the very first fifteen verses.

  705. Is that not a beautiful thing?

  706. Jose Amen?

  707. Matthew, Amen, you're closing comments. We are at the top

  708. of the album.

  709. There's the there's too much stuff in here, Matthew. But

  710. when when you're describing that the events there with Judah,

  711. I mean, I'm reminded of the churches in the Book

  712. of Revelation. You know, when their transgressions are revealed by

  713. all accounts that that church should should be destroyed. But no,

  714. God saves those that hold to the covenant and hold

  715. to his son, regardless of what else is going on

  716. in those churches. Matthew. That's just that's what's that's what's

  717. catching me right now. Just to touch on what you

  718. said earlier. You know, I'm taking to Hebrews, Matthew, where

  719. we're told that you know, if you if you transgress,

  720. you fall under the law of Moses, right, that's the

  721. old Covenant. But if you transgress against a new Covenant, Matthew,

  722. you're transgressing against the Son of God. And how much

  723. more terrible is that? You know, We're we're describing all

  724. these events in the Old Testament. We're describing how the

  725. how the Jews will be reincorporated into God's family. But Matthew,

  726. that that same thing holds true for us if we

  727. reject God that same thing, we can be rejected just

  728. as easily as as as as they were, because now

  729. we're taking on that same mother, that same heartt And

  730. I think everything we've described, Matthew, is to understand the

  731. blessing that we have of accepting the Son of God,

  732. the lessing that we've taken, the promises we're giving because

  733. of that, Matthew, and rejecting it, it's just it's just

  734. I just can't even I can't even fathom rejecting that, Matthew.

  735. I can't even fathom what's going to come down on

  736. our head if we reject that. So that that's that's that.

  737. Those are our closing comments right now. Again, this is

  738. just this is nothing we haven't read before, nothing we

  739. haven't covered before, Matthew. But just to see it again,

  740. God using this beautiful illustration, God being straightforward to us,

  741. Matthew and telling us that we have that choice. We

  742. have the choice to either play the harlot or become

  743. the bright of Christ. That that's that's that's where we're at, Matthew.

  744. Oh, ladies and gentlemen, mind closing comments. Well, I can

  745. only reiterate what jose just said. There's there's just no

  746. other way to describe it. I will do some of

  747. this though. I and my wife has started a Bible

  748. study of Romans, the audio of which is not available

  749. in the format which you're getting it this program right now.

  750. I am not posting it this way. That audio is

  751. only available on the ministry's Patreon website. That's patreon dot

  752. com backslash Matthew Miller. It's the only way to get

  753. the audio. Today. I have started a monologue series. I

  754. just opened up First Corinthians chapter one. I did fifty

  755. two minutes on the first three verses. First three verses

  756. is just the greeting. But I did a sermon today

  757. or monologue, whichever you'd like to call it. I'm going

  758. to be putting that up. So it's been a busy day, Hose.

  759. This is my fourth program today. Actually, So I did

  760. a monologue, I did the Romans Bible study with my wife.

  761. I did the fellowship. Now I'm doing this so I

  762. am doubling down. Ladies and gentlemen, consider this. If you

  763. want to be a co host, okay, if you want

  764. to be a part of Maranatha Ministries, if you want to,

  765. I don't know, do topographical studies you know, talk about

  766. the anti Christ, or you know, talk about oh, I

  767. don't know, any number of topics. Do you want to

  768. do audios? Get with me and we can do it.

  769. If you want to do a do what me and

  770. Jose are doing. Go through a Bible you want to

  771. a Bible book you want to go to, let's say,

  772. a commentary of Revelation or maybe Daniel. All I can

  773. tell you to do is saddle up, right, Jose? Have

  774. you ever known me to refuse saddling up and writing?

  775. Have you ever heard of that? Jose?

  776. Nope, nope.

  777. If you want to learn something, the best way to

  778. do it is to jump in the saddle with me

  779. and let's start doing a program together. You know, it

  780. amazes me. I've got two or three people who said

  781. they would and just never did. And it's funny how

  782. the Lord Jesus Christ has terribles about people like that,

  783. don't Tony Jose? Yes, anyway, I guess that's enough for now.

  784. She might want to check out the Rumble channel anyway.

  785. That's enough of that, Jose, take us out of here.

  786. In prayer, Please.

  787. You're have any father whom we love and serve. I

  788. thank you for allowing me and my brother Matthew to

  789. gather together to read your word. I thank you for

  790. everything that you've had to share with us. Father. I

  791. also think that this can go out to the other listeners,

  792. that it can go out to other brothers and sisters,

  793. so that they may be edified by this word. But Lord,

  794. tonight I ask for special prayer for those mothers that

  795. are right now crying over their children, that are worried

  796. about their children, that are praying for their children. Father,

  797. please listen to them. Myself, as a man, I don't

  798. understand the love a mother has for a child, how

  799. deep it is, how much it encompasses their being when

  800. their child is in trouble. So I just right now
