Do you know the Bible is God's Holy Word? Do you know it is
-
inspired, in errant, and infallible? If so, like, share,
-
subscribe and support this podcast. So we are Maranatha Ministries and now Reduction draweth
-
Nige. Welcome, Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the program. We are
-
your host Jose and Matthew. And first and foremost I want to say this,
-
Marry Christmas, and marry Christmas. Indeed, for today, unto us,
-
a child is born, that child is it manual, which means God
-
is with us? What say you, Jose? Amen? Matthew. Amen.
-
My my favorite prophecy because that is my middle name, Emmanuel. So
-
I've kept being carried that my whole life. So of course when I heard
-
it in the Bible as a young child, my ears pricked up and it's
-
been it's been top of my head ever since. Matthew, So Amen to
-
that prophecy. And and we'll see what we can what we can learn about
-
that today. Well, I'm probably going to start out in the wrong direction
-
that anybody's expected me to take, because I'm just going to read for you
-
the definition of subterfuge, because this is really what we're looking at when you
-
look at Emmanuel and the emmanual prophecy, you can call it nothing other than
-
supernatural subterfuge. What is it? This from the Merrion Webster Dictionary deception by
-
artifice or stratagem in order to conceal, escape or evade. Now, right
-
off the bat, people might say, well, what does that word artifice
-
mean? What does that mean? That's kind of a tricksy term. No,
-
an artifice is just a clever or artful skill that employees will ingenuity.
-
So let's read that one more time. The definition for some difuge is deception
-
by artifice or stratagem in order to conceal, escape, or evade. When
-
you take a look at the emmanual prophecy, that is the exactly what's going
-
on, and not just on superficial levels, it's on quite supernatural levels.
-
So I'm going to take a read here of the event horizon for the emmanual
-
Prophecy of most of you probably quite familiar with this in all Christmas readings.
-
But Matthew chapter one, starting in verse eighteen, we are reading from the
-
revised Geneva translation. I think this is going to be the mainstay of this
-
Ministry from here on out, looking forward as the English Hellenica. This is
-
very important that you understand there's only one translation of the Bible that actually holds
-
to the Adito Orgia manuscript. That's where you get the chapters and verses.
-
That is the Geneva Bible. So here's of late, a new revised translation
-
of the Geneva Bible has been made available. That's what I'm reading from here
-
today, starting in verse eighteen Matthew. Chapter one. Now, the birth
-
of Jesus Christ was a follows when his mother, Mary had been engaged to
-
Joseph. Before they came together, she was found to be with child from
-
the Holy Ghost. Then Joseph, her husband, being a just man and
-
not willing to make her a public example, was of a mind to release
-
her secretly. But while he thought about these things, behold, the Angel
-
of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph's, son
-
of David, do not be afraid to take marry as your wife, for
-
that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Ghost. And she shall
-
bring forth a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he
-
shall save his people from their sins and all this was done to fulfill that
-
which you're spoken by the Lord, by the prophet saying, behold, the
-
Virgin shall be with child and shall bear a son, and they shall call
-
his name Immanuel, which by interpretation God is with us. Then Joseph,
-
having awakened, did as the Angel the Lord had instructed him, and took
-
his wife. But he did not know her until she brought forth her first
-
born son, and he called his name Jesus. Wow. So right out
-
of the gates, we're involving in subterfuge. It was Joseph's intention to put
-
her away quietly. It was his intention to sneak out of this marriage and
-
this big scandal with this young girl he had been engaged to. And she
-
comes up pregnant. His immediate reaction is subterfuge. He's going to quietly put
-
her away because he was a righteous man. He didn't want a big he
-
didn't want a big scandal. He didn't want Mary's reputation to be tarnished,
-
his reputation to be tarnished. He was just going to release her secretly.
-
This is the employment of subterfuge. But this is countermanned by the Angel of
-
the Lord. Getting involved, stepping in and saying oh, no, no,
-
no, no, you cannot do this because if anybody knows this child
-
is an answer to the prophecy, well we all know what was going to
-
happen down the road with Herod. The supernatural subterfuge was employed by the Angel
-
of the Lord to hide this secret that this child was born of the Holy
-
Ghost. This truly is supernatural subterfuge. And when you take a look at
-
the prophecy where this comes from. On the surface, nobody's going to tell
-
you the truth. Nobody's going to tell you what's what's written in the scripture,
-
Why there's anomalies there, why there's strange things going on. Let's ask
-
jose jose so far, what do you think of this narrative at the end
-
of Matthew chapter one, why all the subterfuge? Well, Matthew, I
-
think it's like you said. First of all, from Joseph's perspective, he
-
he cared for Mary. He understood Mary with a very holy and righteous woman,
-
and he probably didn't know what to think about hearing that she was pregnant,
-
and so he sought to preserve her and protect her again by putting her
-
away quietly. But Matthew, once the angel came to him and told him
-
what was going on, he knew that the implications of this were even greater,
-
and another set of substviewes had to take place. He had to step
-
in and act as the father of Jesus in order to protect the child and
-
to protect the mother, because, like you said, once Herod found out
-
that the King of the Jews was born, the King of Israel, he
-
was going to come and search, search out that child and destroy it.
-
So those are my immediate thoughts, Matthew. And of course you can't help
-
but think back when this also happened as a coronal. You can't help but
-
go back and think about the accidents, what Pharaoh did to the first born
-
males of Israel. You can't help but go back there, Matthew, because
-
you know that if God's repeating himself, then it's something very important that we
-
need to understand and study out so we can see the next time it comes
-
down the road of Matthew. The one thing that we need to take a
-
look out here is how deep this rabbit hole goes. Because most people have
-
no idea that the most important slaughter of the innocence directly tied to this prophecy
-
has nothing to do with the slaughter of the innocence in Egypt. And as
-
a minor of fact, you are extremely hard pressed to have anybody point this
-
out to you because this situation surrounding the Emmanual prophecy, it certainly targets the
-
original prophet that originally delivered that prophecy, who the king involved. And when
-
you say that, Jose, most people are like, what are you talking
-
about? The original king of Israel involved in a slaughter of the innocence?
-
Oh? Really? And not only that, that situation is tied directly to
-
the Assyrian in Bible prophecy, illicitly to the very prophet that delivered that prophecy,
-
to the very king that played the harlot to the Assyrian. Now,
-
I've probably really got people scrambled, right, because things are going on that
-
ladies and gentlemen, You if you don't know everything's surrounding Isaiah chapters seven and
-
eight, if you just pull out the Pacific instances where Emmanuel's mentioned, oh
-
my goodness, you're missing it. And I don't mean a little bit,
-
you are really missing it. I mean, yes, it's true. We
-
can go right to the specific prophecy in Isaiah chapter seven, verse fourteen.
-
Therefore the Lord himself will give you signed. But hold, a virgin will
-
be with the child and bear a son, and she shall call his name
-
Emmanuel, Ladies and gentlemen, This prophecy is directed to a specific thing.
-
Yes, it is. What about the next time, the very next chapter
-
in chapter eight, verse eight, Then it will sweep on into Judah.
-
It will overflow and pass through. It will reach even to the neck,
-
and the spread of its wings will fill the breadth of our land. Oh,
-
Emmanuel, let me say this again. This is directly given to a
-
king of Israel. And do you need to know that? Oh yes he
-
did. Oh yes, he did perform a slaughter of the innocence. Oh
-
yes he did. Jose. How many Bible teachers have you run across that
-
described this and teach this in any way, shape or form. I haven't
-
heard anybody do it, Matthew. And I'm online all the time trying to
-
see what people are saying about different chapters of the Bible, different people studying
-
things to get an idea of where people are at. And I have not
-
seen anybody talk about this matter, even though, like you said, there's
-
direct correlation to the Etherian, direct correlation to what the false prophet is going
-
to do in the end times, direct correlations to the immanual prophecy. You
-
know that's disturbing, it really is. But ladies and gentlemen, what I'm
-
telling you is the truth. You know, if I just read one verse
-
concerning this king, not only that versus that illicitly describe what he was doing,
-
and largely what he was doing, he was copying off the Assyrian king.
-
Yes he was. Now this guy, let me just read a little
-
bit about what he'd done, just to the temple of how things were administrators
-
in the House of God. Let me just read a little just a little
-
bit here. I'm not going to tell you where it's from. He gathered
-
together the utensils of the House of God. He cut the utensils of the
-
House of God in peaces, and he closed the doors of the House of
-
Lord, and made altars for himself on every corner of Jerusalem, in every
-
city of Judah. He made high places to burn incense to other gods,
-
and provoked the Lord, the God of his fathers, to anger. This
-
guy did a whole lot more than anybody wants to remember. But if you
-
don't remember these things, if you don't know what's happening for this dynamic,
-
boy, are you lost When it comes to the prophetic narrative and the immanual
-
prophecy, You're lost. You have no idea what this joker did. Look,
-
this truly is a slaughter of the innocence Second Chronicles, chapter twenty eight,
-
verse three. Once again, it doesn't mention the king's name. Moreover,
-
he burnt incense in the valley of Ben Jimon and burned his sons in
-
fire, according to the abominations of the nations, whom the Lord had driven
-
out before the sons of Israel. He sacrificed and burnt incense on the high
-
places, on the hills and under every green tree. This very king is
-
the one that received the immanubal prophecy from the prophet Isaiah himself. Oh yes
-
he did, Oh yes he did. This is the very one that received
-
this from Isaiah himself. Jose do you have Isaiah Chapter seven up? Yes
-
I do, Matthew, read to me the opening Dya tribe. There give
-
you one sick and a pull it up. Now it came about in the
-
days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Huzaiah, king of
-
Judah. That read in the King of Iram and Pekka the son of Brahmalaiah,
-
king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to wage war against it,
-
but could not conquer it. Now, ladies and gentlemen, a lot of
-
said, jump down to verse ten. What's their reaction to this, Jose,
-
how does the Lord get involved? Start rating in verse ten, Go
-
down to sixteen. That'll be enough. Then the Lord spoke again. The
-
a had saying, ask a sign for yourself from the Lord your God.
-
Make it deep as shield or high as heaven. But it had said,
-
I will not ask, nor will I test the Lord. Then he said,
-
listen, now O, how said David, is it too slight a
-
thing for you to try the patience of men? That you will try the
-
patience of my God as well. Therefore the Lord himself will give you a
-
sign. Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son,
-
and she will call his name Emmanuel. He will eat courage and honey at
-
the time he knows enough to refuse evil and choose good for Before the boy
-
will know enough to refuse evil and choose good. The lad whose two kings
-
you dread will be forsaken. Ladies and gentlemen, this was given to a
-
Haas and as you as Ira already read for you. He was sacrificing his
-
sons. This is enough to write to your crage when you put two and
-
two together, ladies and gentlemen, he was trying to sacrifice the immanual child.
-
When you realize that, it makes you, it makes you well check
-
yourself, It makes you really want to look into what's going on here.
-
And one of the most important things you need to understand is the massive reforms
-
happened with his son that took over, which is the good king Hazekaiah.
-
He's the one that instigated not only the regathering of those been wo who had
-
been decimated by the Assyrian himself. He called for a second passover. What
-
other king set invoys from Judah up to the ten lost tribes. When I
-
say it like that, or get your attention, it's already been decimated by
-
the Assyrian. And he says, hey, come down one month later from
-
passover and we'll have everything ready and prepare to properly celebate break the passover exactly
-
one month late. If no one told you that this prophecy was given by
-
Isaiah to a has and his son that took over Hezekiah, that was the
-
good king. Everybody knows about King Hezekiah, Ladies and gentlemen, Hezekiah is
-
the answer to that prophecy. I have you in a state of shock,
-
don't I? Matthew, You saying that this wicked king Agg's hass was trying
-
to sacrifice the very child that God had promised him. That's exactly what I'm
-
saying. Now. This makes you want to look into well, who was
-
has Akius? Mother? Can I add one more thing, Matthew, before
-
I move on from Isaiah seven. Yes, go ahead, right there,
-
right there in verse eleven, where it's prophesied or he's told to make his
-
his his request of God, make it as deep as shield or as high
-
as heaven. Of course we know that's talking about the parent prophecy what God
-
promised Abraham that his children will be as the sand of the seashore and as
-
the stars of heaven. But when he's also taken account, Matthew, that
-
a Has had a son that was killed in battle by a mighty king of
-
Ephraim. So quite literally here God asking him, if you ask for it,
-
he has, I will raise your son and I will show you who
-
I am. But but again he had a had decided decided to reject it,
-
and decided to not only reject that part of God's prophecy, but also
-
go after the immanual child like like we're going to talk about right now,
-
Matthew, But this is just uh, when you read about this, when
-
you consider what he was doing to his sons, and when you consider what
-
he did to the to the Temple of God, what he forced the high
-
priest to do inside that temple, it's just it's a wonder, Matthew that
-
God himself didn't come down here and just wipe wipe Judah and Israel off the
-
matt Matthew, what was going on here? It's it showed his mercy because
-
he would have been well within his right to do that. Well, Jose,
-
you know, prophetically, you have to understand that's exactly what happens in
-
revelationship chapter fourteen. Amen, when you realize that's an answer to Isaiah chapter
-
twenty six, And I say that takes people by surprise, what are you
-
talking about? Isaiah chapter twenty six. God illicitly tells you he's going to
-
take them right out of the womb. And ladies, you know him,
-
I sprophetically what was just said. Because they go from the womb of their
-
mother, of their mothers, they ascend to Mount Zion. This is the
-
malechild in Revelation chapter twelve. Yes it is, ladies, gentlemen, write
-
this down. Isaiah chapter twenty six equals the male child of Revelation chapter fourteen
-
equals the first born, first fruits, the womb that go to Mount Zion,
-
and Revelation chapter fourteen. When you realize Isaiah chapter twenty six equals Revelation
-
chapter twelve equals Revelation chapter fourteen, your eyes will be blasted wide open.
-
Because, ladies and gentlemen, this is why the Lord, our God has
-
encoded to us inside the Hebraica itself, the Emmanuel alohem I said that everybody's
-
like, what, yes, poor, you know this name Emmanuel. That
-
is the Hebrew word with okay to be with e Manu. Of course L.
-
You know that means God e Manu L means God is with us.
-
Well, ladies and gentlemen, If you don't know on Exodus chapter nineteen and
-
Psalm fifty four and Psalm fifty four, that's how it starts out. It's
-
in verse one. If you don't know that the immanubal Elohim is there encoded
-
in the Hubraica, you really don't know what to expect. But when Jesus
-
Christ is the first born from the dead, the pro Toto coast necross,
-
and he is also the first born of the living, ladies and gentlemen,
-
If you don't know about both groups, you're gonna do nothing but chase your
-
tale when it comes to Bible prophecy, because look, I'll read to you
-
exit Exodus chapter twenty, verse nineteen. Here in the Hebrew the exact phrase
-
is Emmanuel aloheim. It reads in our in our English. This is how
-
they translated. Then they said to Moses, speak to us yourself, and
-
we will listen. But do not let God speak to us, or we
-
will die. You set there and scratch your head. Why didn't hear God
-
is with us? Oh? I don't care how it's translated. I'm telling
-
you it's there. Psalms fifty four, verse one. Ladies and gentlemen,
-
these things are important. I know that I'm taking you by surprise, But
-
believe me when I say you need to write these things down, because you
-
can go get the masoretic text yourself and look them up. Yes, you
-
can so write these down. Exodus chapter twenty, verse nineteen, Psalms fifty
-
four, verse one for the choir director on stringed instruments, a maskill of
-
David when the Ziphytes came and said, the Saul is not David hiding among
-
us. Save me, Oh God, by your name, and vindicate me
-
by your power. Look past the English translation, because an English translation key
-
to Strong's is not going to show you what you need to see. You
-
need to see the actual mesoretic text. You need to see the Hebraica.
-
And there it is in plain daylight. It's immanual aloheen plural. It's a
-
manual elahem plural. Now, when you know all these things, because you
-
know them from the event horizon, from the Apocalypse of Isaiah, that is
-
to say, Isaiah chapter twenty six, you can follow this whole thread through.
-
Eventually, from Isaiah twenty six you of course get to the Book of
-
Obadiah, which plainly states who it is that goes to Mount Zion. Let
-
me say this, if you don't know that in Obadiah one, verse twenty
-
one is what Revelation chapter fourteen is built upon. I really don't know what
-
to tell you. You need to scratch everything you've learned before, because there's
-
only one group that's ever going to send Mount Zion. There's only one group
-
that's ever going to do it. And just as Jesus Christ is the firstborn
-
from the dead, he is also the first born of the living. And
-
you can take that to the bank. And this is why Revelation chapter fourteen
-
illicitly tells you this group that goes to Mount Zion, which is in heaven.
-
There is no arguing where Mountain Zion is. Hebrews Chapter twelve tells you.
-
It states it emphatically that Mount Zion is nowhere on planet Earth. It's
-
God's throne room. That's where this group is taken and the only ones that
-
get taken there. Revelation chapter fourteen states they are the first fruits of the
-
womb. They're the first fruits. Yes they are, so, I hope
-
you wrote those things down. Look at the masoretic text and it will stare
-
you in the face. It will shock you, it will confuse you.
-
You're like, wait a minute, you mean we could provide an alternate translation
-
for this, Ladies and gentlemen. The translation you have in the English from
-
the Mesoretic text is largely based upon what the septulogen says. Yes it is,
-
Yes it is, Yeah it is. I'm telling you what authority give
-
me any Hebrew passes of scripture, and I can at least translate it three
-
different ways. I know that's hard for people in English to understand, because
-
we don't do that with our words. Ladies and gentlemen, For one thing,
-
you need to understand that God took all the vowels in Hebrew for a
-
reason. He did it for a reason. It is through this mechanation that
-
the Lord said, through the prophet Asaf, that he would speak to you.
-
And what your English translation calls it parables. No, no, that's
-
not what the Greek says. It's riddles, ladies and gentlemen. That's what
-
a parable is. It's a riddle. And when you take a language,
-
any language, and remove all of its vowels, you have no idea,
-
not only how to pronounce it, you have no idea because it could be
-
I mean, this is the truth. If you didn't know this, you
-
have a lot to learn. Just about every word in Hebrew, that exact
-
word. It's a noun and a verb. Is that not true, Jose?
-
That's true, matt Ef because there's no vows, ladies and gentlemen.
-
So everything I've said so far has probably just been a shock to your system.
-
It's been a shock to your system. Let's get back down to planet
-
Earth. Okay, we need to pull this back in. Why is everything
-
I stated? Why is all that important? Let's go back to what was
-
said. Let's go back to Matthew Chapter one, go down to verse twenty
-
three. Behold a virgin shall be with child and shall bear a son,
-
and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which, by interpretation God with us.
-
When you consider this, you naturally want to know, well, if
-
all this happened with a has who was the queen? You do need to
-
know this never says that a has had a queen, does it? Jose?
-
No, it does not. Matthew never calls her a queen. Matter
-
of fact, what it calls her don't make any sense, does it?
-
Jose? You no? Why don't you share with everybody? And you can't
-
call her queen. But who was the mother of Hezekiah Jose, Well,
-
Matthew, we get a couple different references to this, the first one in
-
second Keing eighteen, and if we go to verse two, it tells us
-
it's talking about the Kayak. He was twenty five years old when he became
-
king, and he reigned twenty nine years in Jerusalem, and that the mother's
-
name was Abi, the daughter of Zakarayah. All right, we got a
-
problem there, okay, because everybody needs to know that Jose, what does
-
abby mean? Abby means my father, Matthew, Yes, lady, that's
-
right, it's father. And if you needed a hint, well, you
-
know you need to understand this, that this is a shortened form of it,
-
because you are if you add a hay to the end of it.
-
Of course in the Greek that that's where you get a bah, right,
-
because it has the hey on the end of it. So this is shortened.
-
And you, when you know Hebrew, you realize that, well,
-
this exact case and form here, it's all over the Mazoretic text. Now,
-
some people might be surprised that I say that that I have the ability
-
to peer into the Bible source code, because this is not the first time
-
this Hebrew word is used in the text. Because in the Hebraica it's two
-
hundred and eighty six times. When I say Hebraica, I'm saying that with
-
authority, not just a Masoretic text, but the Delitch New Testament, the
-
entire Hebreic has this exact word in it two hundred and eighty six times.
-
That should get your attention, and it should get your attention. So where's
-
the other instance of this name? So, Matthew, this comes up in
-
Second Chronicles, chapter twenty nine, and right there in the first verse head
-
the Kaya became king when he was twenty five years old, and he reigned
-
twenty nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abaijah, the daughter
-
of Lekarayav. Now here we have it. We have the hay on the
-
end right. Yes, So once again, just so we all understand each
-
other, Okay. In the Hebrew, this is olif Bett's yord. Hey,
-
Now, what's really intriguing is when you take these two instances and look
-
at him in the subtuagen. But let's just stick right here with this.
-
I'm gonna read this one more time. And when I do this time,
-
I want you to listen. You need to harken to my voice, Matthew.
-
Chapter one, verse twenty three, Behold, a virgin shall be with
-
child, ladies and gentlemen. You look at this in the Hebrew. It
-
doesn't make any sense because this is what it's saying. You translate this like
-
this. It says his father was the daughter of Zachariah. I don't think
-
I know I'm qualified with authority to tell you that's how you translates this.
-
Now you want help from the Septuagen. Right, you're all sitting there thinking
-
to yourself, well, I want to know what these two verses say in
-
the Septuagen. Surely the Septuagen clears up these issues use force. No,
-
no, it doesn't, because in this instance, in Second Chronicles chapter twenty
-
nine, it literally comes right out and says, Abba Jose, take a
-
look at this in the Septuagen. What does it say there in Second Chronicles
-
chapter twenty nine. I don't have the step twogen in front of me,
-
Matthew. If you can, if you can read that for us, i'd
-
appreciate it. Okay, it is g five ladies and gentlemen, it's father.
-
The next Greek word is G twenty three sixty four daughter. The next
-
one everybody knows G ninety seven. It's Zachariah. It says literally translated here
-
in this in this verse auto his as in Hezekiah atto his father was the
-
daughter of Zachariah. Now look, if we was in a classroom setting,
-
I would show you this for yourself so you could look at it, because
-
I know many of you are quick and you're thinking to myself. You're thinking
-
to yourself, well, this has probably got something to do with the parceling.
-
What what is the case and form of this? Well you go to
-
the parceling information. Guess what it says, A proper noun, that's what
-
it says. It says it's not able to be parceled because it's a proper
-
noun. But when you flip over the Second King's Chapter eighteen, verse two,
-
it says a boo. Now why does it do that because it's a
-
different case in form. But the subtuagon Strong's is not going to let you
-
get out get at it because it also says this is a proper name.
-
She couldn't have had two names. Ladies, and John, what on earth
-
is going on? What is the meaning of these things? Hose, what's
-
your thoughts? Well, Matthew, this word Avid that we see in Second
-
King eighteen, it took me right back to Isaiah. And in Isaiah chapter
-
eight, verse four, it says, for before the boy knows how to
-
cry out my father or my mother, the wealth of Damascus and the spoil
-
of Samaria will be carried away before the king of Assyria. And that there,
-
Matthew, my father is Avid. So yeah, there's some contention about
-
who this child is that's being prophetied about Maharshala Shanshbag, but it's quite there's
-
one way you can read this, Matthew. Before the child can discern who
-
is their father or who is their mother, this prophecy will take place.
-
And of course did chapter eight also mentioned the manual like you read earlier today.
-
So this is just again another another studying Matthew. That's just blowing my
-
mind what God is saying here? What is he trying to tell us?
-
Because look again, this is exactly the contention that you were seeing with Jesus's
-
birth. Who's his father? The same thing, that's right, the same
-
thing, you know, I'll throw a nice big s in this machine.
-
Ladies and gentlemen. The sabo is the Dutch shoes, the wooden shoes.
-
That's where sabotage comes from. They would, they quickly realized that the machines
-
were going to well take them from their livelihood, so they would take off
-
their wooden shoes called the sabo, and throw them into the machines. Riddle
-
me this, ladies and gentlemen, I'm just going to take you by surprise.
-
Let's go to Isaiah chapter eight. Let's just read the first two verses.
-
Now, let's read that. You know. Third time's the charm.
-
Amen. Amen. Then the Lord said to me, take for yourself a
-
large tablet and write on it in ordinary letters. Swift is the booty.
-
I'm speeding is the pray. And I will take to myself faithful witnesses for
-
testimony, Urah the priest, and Zachariah, the son of Jebrakiah. Now
-
the third verse gonna blow you away. Now, just so you understand,
-
this is Isaiah. So I approached the prophetess, and she conceived and gave
-
birth to a son. Then the Lord said to me, name him Marshah
-
Hashbaz for before the boy knows how to cry out my father or my mother,
-
the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria will be carried away before
-
the king of Assyria. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Zachariah. Oh,
-
you didn't catch that Hezekiah's mother was this witness's daughter. And you're sitting
-
there thinking to yourself, witness for what I'm gonna ask you this? Did
-
anybody know that the prophet Isaiah had a wife and we don't know her name?
-
I mean, I say that, and people, just so you really
-
think you know in time Bible prophecy when you don't know that Isaiah had sons
-
and every look, not only that, listen to what verse eighteen states.
-
So is that that chapter eight go down to verse eighteen. This is just
-
off the hook. What is stated here? He comes right out and says,
-
behold, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are for
-
signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of Hosts who dwells on Mount Zion.
-
Letting you know prophetically exactly what is involved here. Yeah, let me
-
say that again, letting you know exactly what is prophetically involved here? What
-
does Hebrews chapter twelve, verse twenty two, say write these things down.
-
But you have come to Mount Science and to the city of the Living God,
-
God, the Heavenly Jerusalem, to myriads of angels, ladies and gentlemen.
-
Somebody's lied to you. Because Mount Zion it's not only not inside the
-
Israeli Empire, it's not on this planet. It is God's throng room.
-
So while the pillar of Cloud was over the Mercy Seat, which is on
-
the arc of the Covenant, Mount Zion was there in the temple in Jerusalem.
-
But once the glory left the temple, that glory went back to where
-
it belonged, to the heavenly Jerusalem. Okay, please please write this down
-
Hebrews chapter twelve, verse twenty two. When you couple that with the verse
-
I just read Isaiah chapter eight, verse eighteen. I mean, a lot
-
of people don't realize all the ramifications going on here. What is it these
-
two people witnessed, ladies and gentlemen. I mean, we have plenty of
-
examples of what could have possibly happened. Let's just talk about Oh, I
-
don't know, Lot, Let's talk about Lot now. Lot. He sired
-
sons with his two daughters, right Jose, Yes he did. Matthew he
-
had no idea about it, did he, because why they got him hammered
-
first? Right? Yes, ladies, gentlemen, I'm gonna ask you this
-
again. Let me just read this again, and I will take to myself
-
faithful witnesses for testimony. Ladies and gentlemen, This, this whole testimony Isaiah
-
chapter seven is about the immanual prophecy, Yes it is. What did these
-
two people witness I mean, what happened to Noah? How was one of
-
his sons able to disgrace him? Same mechanation, right Jose, Yes,
-
there was? He got drunk. I'm gonna say this again. I don't
-
care where you look it up. Ladies and gentlemen. If somebody tells you
-
that Hezekiah's mother was queen, they're lying. The Bible never says she was
-
queen. It says these strange things that even the Septuagint don't know how to
-
correct, so it just puts in there. Yell man. It says his
-
father was the daughter of Zachariah. That's what it says. I don't have
-
time to light to you. You're not worth going to hell. Over,
-
because there's no such thing as free grace. There's no such thing. You
-
ain't worth going to Hell over. I'm telling you the truth. Look at
-
it in either the septuagen or the Masoretic text, and it says it says
-
his father was the daughter of Zachariah. This is the Zacharia in question.
-
It's not the Zachariah the prophet or the Book of Zacharia. There's two hundred
-
years difference between these two characters. Why is your Riah the priest involved,
-
Because ladies and gentlemen, when it comes to the Jews and the children of
-
Israel, if the priest said it, it was tantamount to the Gospel truth,
-
was it not, Jose, Yes, there was. Matthew absolutely,
-
remember what happened or what Aaron had to do when its sons were killed,
-
Matthew for burning strange fire. He knew better than to enter into that sanctuary,
-
to that holy place with that sin on his heart. So he did
-
not enter into there. And so if you have the high priest giving false
-
testimony and then attempting to enter into the holy place, Matthew, it would
-
not go well for him. Matthew. So yes, his testimony was tanning
-
up to Gospel. So, I mean, the only thing you can come
-
up with what this is trying to say is he has had no idea this
-
child had been born. I got one thing to add, Matthew. And
-
trying to figure out why it was so important to keep this mother's identity secret.
-
We're told, like you mentioned that in Second Chronicles twenty eight, that
-
it has burned his sons and the fire. We're also told in Second King
-
sixteen that his son passed through the fire. Similar Hebrew words there between passed
-
and burned, but they are spilled differently. Matthew. But let me read
-
something out of what the Jews say and their talmud about this mother, and
-
it says, Avi save the life of her son, had the kaya whom
-
her godless husband a has had designed as an offering to Moloch. By anointing
-
him with the blood of the salamander, she enabled him to pass through the
-
fire of Moloch unscathed. Now this is their explanation for the events that transpired,
-
Matthew, And I'm not here to testify to the veracity of that.
-
But even the Jews understood how important this child was and how important keeping this
-
child from Ayhas was keeping his identity to ensure that the kings of Judah continued,
-
the lineage of David continued. Math And you know, it's amazing how
-
when As is mentioned around these things, David is mentioned too. That'll take
-
you by surprise. When you take a look at the narrative, you begin
-
to understand, Wow, it's I mean, let's go to Second Chronicles,
-
chapter twenty nine again. This time, let's not reverse one, let's reverse
-
two. He did right in the sight of the Lord, according to all
-
that his father David had done. This is being stated for a reason,
-
ladies and gentlemen, This reference is back to David concerning a has son.
-
Now you know why it was done. The ladies and gentlemen. We don't
-
know what this woman's name was. Now is that name a Hebrew name?
-
Yes, it's used a lot in the Old Testament. You might as well
-
say, but it's always boys, because under what circumstance, Jose, do
-
you name a girl father? You don't, Matthew, you don't not mak
-
Nope. So when this has A KaiA must have been presented to the people,
-
they were all like, what are you talking about? They has sacrificed
-
all his sons to asher Ah. Yes, who did the Assyrian worship?
-
I don't need to ask you, ladies and gentlemen. I know the god
-
of the Assyrians is Ashure, the winged disc right, Jose. Yeah,
-
So when you put all this two and two together, you realize that the
-
priest Uriah and this Zachariah came forward and said, Nope, this boy right
-
here is and we witnessed it, witnessed what a has is this child's father.
-
Ladies and gentlemen, look to Hazekiah. Why did he do all these
-
things? I mean, you really need to get up to speed on everything
-
that Hezekiah did. I mean, check out his first year. Does this
-
sound right to you? The temples desecrated. There's hype. I read to
-
you the verst is that said that a has on every corner of Jerusalem.
-
He set up a high place, right, Hose, I did read it
-
right? Yes? Now check out verse three of Second Chronicles, chapter twenty
-
nine. In the first year of his reign, in the first month,
-
he opened the doors of the house the Lord and repaired them. He brought
-
in the priest and the levites and gathered them into the square on the east.
-
He said to them, listen to me, Levites, consecrate yourselves now,
-
and consecrate the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers,
-
and carry the uncleanliness out from the holy place. For our fathers have been
-
unfaithful and have done evil in the sight of the Lord, our God,
-
and have forsaken him, and turned their faces away from the dwelling place of
-
the Lord, and have turned their books. They have also shut the doors
-
of the porch and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense or
-
offered birth offerings in the holy Place of the God of Israel. Therefore,
-
the wrath of the Lord was against Judah and Jerusalem. Should I keep reading?
-
Should I? Does this make sense that Hezekiah just He just goes for
-
it. He undos everything that A hasn't done, after all the boys,
-
after all the heirs he had sacrificed, and no queen is ever mentioned.
-
I guess you'd call A has the whore of the first order, wouldn't you,
-
Jose Yes, Matthew, it never says he had a queen, And
-
no matter what you do, no queen on planet Earth would have been named
-
Father. I don't care if it was Germans or Egyptians or Italians. Ain't
-
no queen been named father. If you need a hint, you ain't got
-
a clue. Because this girl would have been raised in shame, right,
-
jose Yeah, because she wouldn't have had herself a That's another way I can
-
put that. Besides husband, Yeah, she wouldn't have had herself a Joseph,
-
Ladies and gentlemen, you just need to understand that the prophecy was made
-
complete in Matthew, but just in ways that you couldn't understand. You couldn't
-
see it, You couldn't quite see it. What did Joseph intend to do?
-
Verse nineteen of Matthew Chapter one. Then, Joseph, her husband,
-
being a just man and not willing to make her a public exam, was
-
of a mind to release her secretly. That's exactly what was done to the
-
mother of Hezekiah. She was put away secretly. And if you don't know
-
all these things are going on, I mean, we have lightly discussed Isaiah
-
and his children, but you need to know. You need to know that
-
this prophetess and Isaiah had two sons, right jose Yes, Matthew, and
-
the incident of these two sons is all over the look. One son is
-
in Isaiah chapter seven, verse three, and the other son is Isaiah chapter
-
eight, verse three. Let me say that again one seven three and one's
-
eight three. But Isaiah chapter seven and eight is about the Emmanuel prophecy.
-
So, ladies and gentlemen, these verses here in Matthew, about the emmanual
-
prophecy. They're a whole lot more power pack than you ever thought your thoughts.
-
Jose Well, Matthew, this little legend that that that the rabbi say
-
about had the kaya how he survived the fire. Right, let me read
-
you a little bit more about this salamander. It says, if you cover
-
your arm or any limb with its blood, that place will become impervious to
-
fire. Why did the salamander have this ability because it was created from fire
-
himself. Matthew, are saying that salamanders have no mother and have no father,
-
which to me telled me perfectly clear that they understood this's the manual prophecy.
-
And so they perfectly understood. When Jesus was born and this was begun
-
to be said about him, they knew exactly what was being said, and
-
they knew how it tied into the emmanual prophecy, because they had seen it
-
one time before, Matthew. So now you know why they tried so hard
-
to kill Jesus. Now you know why they were so scared the fact that
-
Emmanuel was there with them, and why they so wanted to remove him.
-
That way they could keep their power structure, keep their hierarchy in place,
-
and keep their their religious and clerical order in place, Matthew. Instead of
-
what this was promising us, what you're saying is that King Herod and the
-
Pharisees and the Sadducees did it for the exact same reason that a Has did
-
it, because they were protecting their pyramid speed and God had to use supernatural
-
subterfuge to get things done. Ladies and gentlemen, if no one ever told
-
you that Herod was just another one in an isochronal event from King a Has,
-
it's because they didn't know what they were talking about. And you need
-
to seriously study Isaiah's chapter seven and eight, and you need to find out
-
everything you can about a Has, and you need to find out everything you
-
can about Hezekiah and why there were laws in place for a second passover.
-
They're sure fire, ain't no laws in place for a second Shu code is
-
their Jose, No, there is not, Matthew, you better and celebrate
-
jan Kapoor when yng Kapoor is right. Yes, it's passover and pass over
-
alone that has certain laws in place to make sure you know it's the only
-
one you can celebrate. Late, ladies and gentlemen, I truly hope that
-
you learned you were truly edified this Christmas by Maranatha Ministries. That's my hope
-
that Maranatha Ministries is able to reread a hunger in you, that you start
-
looking into the Bible, God's Holy Word for yourself. Because the clergy that's
-
in place, you're not going to hear any of these things from them,
-
because Jose is quite correct. They're doing what they've always done, protected the
-
pyramid scheme they themselves have set up over God's children. Jose, you're closing
-
comments. Please no, Matthew. I just think that. I mean,
-
the whole time that I've been studying the Emmanual prophecy, I've been pointing it
-
towards what it prophetically says about Jesus and what it prophetically says about those in
-
Revelation chapter fourteen. Well, boy, Matthew, when you start looking back
-
to where this prophecy started, it's just I mean, I had that.
-
They can say, it's even more amazing than what God, what God tells
-
us about, you know, those that are He's going to rescue during the
-
six zeal event, during the tribulation trigger. But it's just it's just blowing
-
my mind. Everything he's packed in to hear Matthew into his word, everything
-
he's done to show us what is to come. Yeah, he's even even
-
Jesus, the version of Birth of Jesus. There's an icaiconal event for that,
-
and that is just blowing my mind right now, Matthew, the way
-
God does it, and it's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing.
-
Indeed, there's one thing more I need to share, emanuals in one other
-
verse in the Hebraica, isn't it, jose Amen? What verse is that?
-
Well, if you're talking about the one that I've found that the new
-
test of at Matthew, yep, that's Acts twenty one, verse eighteen.
-
I'll read it for you, ladies, gentlemen, out of the revised Geneva
-
translation and The next day, Paul went in with us to James and all
-
the elders were assembled there, all of you scratching your head. I didn't
-
hear God has with us there. I'm telling you it's there. It is,
-
and I'm going to tell you again so that you can look these things
-
up. Where's the plural form, where's Emmanuel elaheen? It's Exodus twenty nineteen
-
and Psalms fifty four to one. That is, Bring up the mesoretic text
-
and look at it. You'll see it there staring you in the face.
-
Jose take us out of here in prayer. Please, Dear Heavenly Father,
-
I thank you for gathering us together. I thank you for sharing your word
-
with us. Lord. As we enter into this Christmas season where we celebrate
-
the birth of your son, please let us remember why you brought your son
-
to us, why you allowed him to be with us and to gather with
-
us. Please, Lord, let everyone share his gospel, what he did,
-
the true gift that you gave us, and what your son gave us,
-
and his birth and his death and his resurrection. Lord, please let
-
that be at the forefront of the ecclesia. The Christians around the world as
-
it gathers together with our families to celebrate, as we take time some work
-
to get arrest. Please, Lord, put it in our hearts to open
-
your word, to study your remembrancers, because you have given everything that we
-
need in that word and through your Holy Spirit, Father, we will study
-
it and we will be approved the Lord. I pray with the families of
-
the Ecclesia today. I pray that you protect them from harm, that you
-
provide them for their need, and that you be with them and they approach
-
and get closer to your Son. And we asked all this in the name
-
of your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen, Amen
-
and Amen. Until next time, ladies and gentlemen, God bless, God
-
speed. Thank you for listening to Marinath the Ministries with Matthew Miller. I
