Israel and Judah must have the house in order before the King Messiah arrives
According to the rabbis, the “Ten Lost Tribes” are “gentiles” for all intents and purposes. This information constitutes further proof that the “Ten Lost Tribes” are not those various claimants (Africans, Indians, Burmese) who hold remnants of Judaism of someone’s conversion or previous contact with the religion of Judaism.
Such truly Gentile claimants, unlike Anglo-Saxons and white Northwest Europeans, do not have a single biblical birthmark of fulfilled prophecy. Joseph was an international leader and a feeder of the nations. – not some impoverished people in a jungle looking for a better life in this material world. Also, Joseph is not a Jew!
Tea birthmarks of fulfilled biblical prophecies include, as the see of Jerusalem brit am israel organization teaches:
According to the Bible, ten of the twelve tribes of Israel broke away (1 Kings 12:19), formed their own kingdom of “Israel” (1 Kings 12:20), and were exiled by the Assyrians (2 Kings 17:18). . They forgot their identity (Hosea 1:9, 7:8; Isaiah 49:21) and became the Ten Lost Tribes. In the future they will join the Jews (Ezekiel 37; Isaiah 11:13; Jeremiah 3:18) of “Judah”, but until then they have a role of their own to fulfill. They were meant to be situated at the continental ends of the earth, such as North America, the British Isles, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa (Deuteronomy 33:13; Isaiah 24:16, 26:15, 41). :8-9, 49:6), being the richest (Genesis 27:28, 49:25; Deuteronomy 33:13-16; Hosea 2:8), and the most powerful (Numbers 24:8-7; Micah 5:7-9) nations on earth and to control major international strategic bases (Genesis 22:16-17, 24:60). All of these points, along with many others, show that the descendants of the Ten Lost Tribes can only be found among Western nations, especially English-speaking ones.
I do not denigrate those who convert to Judaism, however, those who are legitimate ETHNIC Israelites have every reason to be concerned when we see hordes of converts pretending to be our specific tribe (Indian converts pretending to be from Manasseh) instead of acknowledging that they are simply descendants of converts to Judaism.
If you study the Bible you will see that the converts are the exception to the rule, and yet some try to force it to be the rule. It is not and never will be according to the Bible that rejects such replacement theology. The Bible continues to make a clear distinction between the Twelve Tribes and does not blur their identity in the tribe of Judah and neither should we.
While I believe that some Israelites have merged with those of the Kingdom of Judah, they are the exception rather than the rule. Proof that the “Ten Lost Tribes” (represented by Joseph – the Joes) are not incorporated, as a rule, in Judah is the very clear and distinct prophecy in Ezekiel 37 that the two (not one) are represented as TWO STICKS – Joseph and Judah, who will again be “one” in the future. They are not one now despite all attempts by some to teach otherwise.
I praise Judah within Beyond Babylon: The Rise and Fall of Europe (at least those Jews to whom it applies) for remaining faithful to their God-given understanding of the Sabbath, biblical holidays, dietary laws, the preservation of the sacred calendar, and other sacred responsibilities. God has blessed the Jews to bless us all with such knowledge.
Gentilized Israelites (many Catholics and Protestants) must confess and abandon our baptized paganism, our whitewashed pagan ways with which the Roman wolves have polluted the world and deceived the masses, and Judaism must reject its Babylonian relics of astrology, amulets, “hell” and other religious lies, as Zechariah proves that Judah is not perfect either. Gentile Jews, assimilated Jews, must remember their Hebrew roots and their biblical responsibilities and act accordingly.
Both Joseph and Judah need to have our House so that we can be filled with God’s Holy Spirit and serve as His light to the nations. The House of Jacob-Israel must become the House of God, so help us God.
Some members of Judaism have suggested that I become a Noahide or convert to Judaism, although they oppose any proselytizing for them to become Christians. I am very aware of the Noahides and of Judaism and consider both to be incomplete. I am graciously counted among the pioneers, the chosen few, who have already perceived who the Pierced One is, who are partakers in the spirit of the prophesied renewed covenant, and patiently await the political and religious rulers of Jerusalem to Search and draw near and have the necessary change of heart and attitude that Zechariah 12:8-14 foresees, preparing for the Blessed One who comes in the Name of the LORD – sent from Heaven above.
One in the spirit of Elijah (who is dead and buried according to the Bible), a living descendant of King David, will lead the Way to bring Israel and Judah to such a place, ready to meet our King, ready to meet our God . . Such a descendant of David will be the main spokesman between two witnesses who will testify to these truths and offer hope and comfort to his captive audience.
Jews are free to believe whatever they want and I have never said otherwise, even if I call them out (like traditional Christianity) on certain inconsistent points, and encourage them to follow their Judaism to Israel rather than remain in self-imposed exile. I believe what I am convinced of before God, whether Judaism or professed Christianity approves it or not. God is my judge. I just find it quite interesting that according to Judaism an atheist or communist is still a “Jew”, but some Jews (members of Judaism, not necessarily the Tribe of Judah) have the nerve to deny the heritages of the other tribes and reject their legitimate claims as Joes (Joseph) or whatever ETHNIC tribe they are from, which is still true regardless of religious affiliation. This anti-Semitic attitude is represented and predicted:
Ezekiel 11:15
15Son of man, your brothers, your brothers, the men of your relatives, and the whole house of Israel in its entirety, are those to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem said: Get away from Jehovah; to us is given this land in possession.
Fortunately, that sibling rivalry will soon be history, as Isaiah assures us:
Isaiah 11:12-13
12And he will lift up a banner to the nations, and will gather the exiles of Israel, and will gather the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 The envy of Ephraim will dissipate, and the enemies of Judah will be cut off: Ephraim [Joseph] He will not envy Judah, nor will Judah afflict Ephraim.
Even when some Karaites and Orthodox Jews reject the modern state of Israel (because it was founded by secular Jews, for the most part, and is far from holy) because they did not see or submit to the prophecies revealing that the Jews would begin to be restored in these last days, with regret NEXT to that fact (once they’re on Earth, in God’s good time), so some stumble that gentilized Israelites aren’t kosher enough according to their “Jewish” standard instead of humbly acknowledging them as brothers (with all the biblical birthmarks of fulfilled prophecy), and patiently praying for any necessary conversion or change of heart, step by step, leaving everything in the good hands of God who gathers the stick of Joseph and the stick of Judah and makes us one (Ezekiel 37).
