Part One: “Letter to Paul”

Sunday 8^th of Tammuz 5771

(Sunday July 10, 2011)

Brother Paul,

For too long I’ve been unsuccessful in getting to you this message.  The letter grew and still so much more to say.

As a witness to the glorious works of God, we have prepared a “Foot in the Door” for those who seek the WORD of TRUTH.

The manifestation of the Living God is such a massive and overwhelming topic.

I’ve used both the King James Version and the Gideon Bible

Tishrei-Chesvan 5770

(Oct, Nov., 2009)

Hi Paul,

Greetings and blessings.

I will try to clarify one verse of scripture.

The verse that interests us today is from the Old Testament, the book of the prophet Zechariah. (Zechariah 10:1-4) especially

vs.4 “Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of

him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.”

Out of him (“him” being Judah)

The “Corner” we truly know to be our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, Yahoshuah Mashiach

This has been studied extensively and I’ll list some of these for your studies.

2.Notes on the corner, the cornerstone, the stone of stumbling, the rock of offence: ( From Rev. Scofield reference Bible; “ Christ crucified is the rock”)

1.  

2. Smitten that the spirit of life may flow from Him to all who drink.

Ex. 17:6

1 Cor. 10:4

John 4:13,14 ; 7:37-39

2. To the church The foundation and chief corner stone

Eph. 2 ;20

3. To the Jews at his first coming

“Stumbling Stone”

Romans 9:32,33, Isaiah 8:14

1 Cor. 1:23

4. To Israel at His second coming the Headstone of the Corner

Zech4:7

5. To the gentile “World Powers’ the “Smiting Stone” cut out without hands

Dan. 2:34

6. In the “Divine Purpose” the Stone after its destruction of world-power, is to grow and fill the earth. Dan. 2:35

7. To unbelievers the Crushing Stone of Judgement

Matt. 21:44

Other scripture also affirming this:

Psalms118:22

Isaiah 28:16

Matt. 7:24,25; 16:18;  21:42

Mark 12:10

Luke 6:48;  8:6

Rom. 9:33

1 Cor. 10:4

Eph. 2:20

Peter sees him as a Living Stone and quotes Isaiah 28;11 writing:

1 Peter 2:6

V6. “Therefore it is also contained in the scripture, behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious, and he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.

And concludes with verses 7&8

V7. “Therefore to you who believe, He is precious, but to those who are disobedient, The stone which the builders rejected (refused) has become the chief corner stone

V8. “And a stone of stumbling and a “Rock of offence” They stumble being disobedient to the Word to which they were also appointed.”

Chapter 2

The Second Coming of Christ

  We’ve briefly reviewed “the corner” out of Judah (Zechariah 10:4) next we’ll look into scripture to examine “The Nail” out of Judah, a subject I’ve never heard from any preacher or writer. To start this, we’ll go to Isaiah who so beautifully described the suffering of Christ in all twelve verses of Isaiah chapter 53. So we also see “the nail” in Isaiah 22:20-25

Vs 20 “And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim,[the name Eliakim means “whom the LORD establishes], the son of Hilkiah.

Vs. 21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle,

        and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

Vs. 22 “And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder so he shall open and none shall shut; and He shall shut and none shall open.”

Vs. 23 “And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house

1. 24 “ And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups even to all the vessels of flagons.

Vs. 25.  In that day saith the Lord of hosts, the nail that is fastened in a sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the Lord hath spoken it.

This “nail” fulfilled Isaiah’s earlier prophecy. Isaiah 9:6, 7.

Vs.6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Vs.7 Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgement and with justice from hence forth even for ever. The Zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.”

Some of these quotes in Isaiah 22: 20-25, are recognizable: “thy government in his hand,” the key of the house of David” to open and close at will.

“A glorious throne and all the glory of His father’s house.”

Please, let’s start with (vs. 22) and ‘The one with the key of David”

We see John in (Revelation chapter 1:3) describe “One like the son of man”, “Alpha and Omega (The first and the last)

“I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, Amen”

And especially (Rev. 3:7) to the 6^th church.

Vs. 7 “ And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write these things say He who is Holy, He who is True, He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens.”

Are we inferring that the LORD JAHOVAH prepared for Himself, a second Tabernacle, in which to dwell? Absolutely! As the Apostle Paul wrote in his letter to the Hebrews. Hebrews 9: 28.

Vs.28 “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for HIM shall HE appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

As David says in Psalm 132:17.

Vs.17 “There will I make the horn of David to bud: I have ordained a lamp for Mine Anointed.”

The word Anointed means Mashiach and Christ.

Are we inferring that Jesus Christ is “the nail” of Isaiah chapter 22? No! What we are saying is this, the Spirit of Christ that dwelt in Jesus has prepared for Himself, a Second Tabernacle in which to dwell.

Once you have the historical and biblical facts, so much becomes, instead of obscure, apparent.  So please understand that throughout this letter, little by little as you’ll proceed, I’ll attempt to make things clear.

Let us explain using the scriptures concerning the Two Anointed Ones, the Two Mashiach, the Two Christs, and the Two Olive Trees.

Beginning with the prophecy of Zechariah. Zechariah 4.

Vs.1 “And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

Vs.2 And said unto me, what seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof.

Vs.3 And Two Olive Trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

Vs.4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my Lord?

Vs.5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No. My Lord. The Abundance of God’s Spirit

Vs.6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the Word of the LORD unto Ze-rub’-ba-bel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit , saith the LORD of hosts.

Vs.7 Who art thou O great mountain? Before Ze-rub’-ba-bel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

Vs.8 Moreover the Word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

Vs.9 The hands of Ze-rub’ba-bel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.

Vs.10 For who hath despised the day of small things? For they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Ze-rub’-ba-bel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

Vs.11 Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these Two Olive Trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?

Vs.12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these Two Olive Branches which through the Two Golden Pipes empty the Golden Oil out of themselves.

Vs.13 And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my LORD.

Vs.14 Then said he, These are the Two Anointed Ones, that stand by the LORD of the whole earth.

Another example of the Two Anointed Ones is found in the book Daniel. Daniel 12:5, 6, 7.

Vs.5 “Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other Two, the One on this side of the bank of the river, and the Other on that side of the bank of the river.

Vs.6 And One said to the Man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

Vs.7 And I heard the Man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when He held up His Right Hand and His Left Hand unto Heaven, and swear by HIM that liveth forever that it shall be for a time, times, and part;….”

Incidentally the two cherubims built by Solomon at the sides of the Ark of the Covenant in the Holy of Holies were made from olive trees. 1 Kings 6:23.

Vs.23 “And within the Oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high.”

The prophet Isaiah describes the need for a second intervention. Isaiah 11:10-11.

Vs.10 “And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an Ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: And His rest shall be glorious.

Vs.11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set His Hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people,….”

The first Christ, Yahoshuah (Jesus) brought Salvation to the Jews. This Salvation was spiritual in that it was Salvation for the soul, and an Atonement for sin, and the creation of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The second Christ would bring physical Salvation for Israel: the recreation of the Kingdom of Israel-the Kingdom of GOD on earth.

After His death and resurrection and before His Ascension He was asked by the apostles “Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” The Acts of the Apostles 1:6.

We know the answer to this question. For it would not be the mission of Yahoshua the Christ, but the privilege and duty of Christ on His return.

The prophet Micah spoke concerning the Two Anointed Ones and the time interval between the Two Christs. Micah 5:1-5.

Vs.1 “Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

Vs.2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephrath, thought thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.

Vs.3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.

Vs.4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD His God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.

Vs.5 And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.

Let us look historically on what we know. The prophet Abraham sat down face to face, eating and drinking, with the LORD. Genesis 18:1-33. This was approximately the year 2000 B.C… 2000 years later we have the Lamb of GOD Yahoshuah (Jesus). And approximately 2000 years after Jesus we have H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I. An interesting aspect of GOD’s revealing of Himself to mankind.

Now the Christian prophecies speak of a future time when the Two Anointed Ones return together to Jerusalem. Revelation 11:3-12.

Vs.3 “And I will give power unto My Two Witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Vs.4 These are the Two Olive Trees, and the Two Candlestick standing before the GOD of the earth.

Vs.5 And if any man will hurt Them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt Them, he must in this manner be killed.

Vs.6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as the will.

Vs.7 And when They shall have finished Their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against Them, and shall overcome Them, and kill Them.

Vs.8 And Their Dead Bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. [Jerusalem]

Vs.9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see Their Dead Bodies three days and a half, and shall not suffer Their Dead Bodies to be put in graves.

Vs.10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over Them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these Two Prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

Vs.11 And after three days and a half the Spirit of Life from God entered into Them, and They stood upon Their Feet; and great fear fell upon the which saw Them.

Vs.12 And They heard a Great Voice from Heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And They ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld Them.”

A near unbelievable vision of the future. Very difficult to fully understand.

Thus we conclude from scripture that Christ is the “corner” and Christ is the “nail”. It also teaches us that the Two Christ’s together are the “battle-bow”. I would venture to say that one of the Christ—Haile Selassie I could be the bow and the Lord Yahoshua could be the arrow. For the “battle-bow” of Zechariah 10:4 are the “Two olive trees”.

Now the Book of Revelation makes explicitly clear that in the Second Advent, Christ would again come as Saviour. And that He would again be a man born of a woman. 

Revelation 12:2.

vs.2 “Then being with child, she cried out in labour and in pain to give birth.”

And this child, born of woman, became the Anointed of the Lord to regather Israel. Now we know that at the first Advent of Christ Israel was not regathered into a Kingdom. So it became necessary for the LORD to set His Hand again a second time to regather His people, and His Inheritance-Israel.

This was spoken about by Jeremiah. Jeremiah 23:5-8

Vs 5   Behold, the days come, saith JAHOVAH, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.

Vs 6   In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The LORD our RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Vs 7   Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD that they shall no more say. The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

Vs 8  But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and thy shall dwell in their own land.”

In the Christian New Testament the church leader James addresses the early church. Acts of the Apostles 15:16, 17.

Vs.16 “After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:

Vs.17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, sayeth the Lord, who doeth all these things.”

_____________________________________________________________________

On these two facts agree the prophets and the Word of God:

1. Christ will sit in peace on His Throne, ruling in truth and righteousness;

2. Christ, as King, will be in Jerusalem to command the four winds to bring back his inheritance, Israel, to be established in His Eyes, in His Days, and, that this Kingdom will stand forever, with Christ as King.

And this day was the 5^TH day of the second month, Ayyar, in the year 5696 (May 14, 1936), (according to the pagan calendar May 14^th 1948) when Isaiah’s prophecy was fulfilled.

Isaiah 66:8

Vs. 8  “Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such a thing? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as ZION travailed, she brought forth her children.”

To which Zechariah adds : Zech. 8:2

Vs. 2  “Thus saith the LORD of host; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy and I was jealous for her with great fury.

Vs. 3. “Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountains of the LORD of hosts the Holy mountain.”

1. 6 “Thus saith the LORD at Hosts; if it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of His people in these days, should it, also be marvellous in mine eyes? Saith the LORD of Hosts.

Vs. 7  “Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold I will save my people from the east country, and from the West Country;

Vs. 8  “And I will bring them and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.”

And as Jeremiah confirms: Jer. 30: 22, 31:1 

Vs. 22         “And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.”

Jeremiah 31: 1.

Vs. 1  “At the same time, saith the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.”

The other prophets concur to His Kingship and His Kingdom as simultaneous events.

 Micah 1.6,7,8,

Vs. 1  ‘But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the House of the LORD shall be established. In the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and the people shall flow unto it.”

Vs. 6  “In that day, saith the LORD, I will assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;”

Vs. 7  “And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion from hence forth, ever forever.”

Vs. 8  ‘And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold at the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.” with Zephaniah adding in chapter 2: 1, 2,7.

Vs. 1  ‘Gather yourselves together, yea gather together, O nation not desired.”

Vs. 2  “Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the “LORD come upon you, before the day at the LORD’s anger came upon you.”

Vs. 7  “And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house at Judah; thy shall feed there upon; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.”

And as the prophet Zephaniah stated. Zephaniah 3:15-20.

Vs. 15         “The LORD hath taken away thy judgements, he hath cast out thine enemy: the King of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil anymore.”

Vs. 16 “In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, let not thine hands be slack.”

Vs. 17         “The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty, He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing.”

Vs. 18         “I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of thee, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.

Vs. 19         “Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.”

Vs. 20         “At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.”

Isaiah 11: 1, 2,10,11,12.

Vs. 1  “And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse and a Branch shall grow out of his roots.”

Vs. 2  “And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of’ counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;”

Vs. 10         “And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek! And his rest shall be glorious.”

Vs. 11         “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, which shall be left from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from E’lam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath and from the island of the seas.”

Vs. 12         “And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.”

Jeremiah 32: 37-42

Vs.37 “Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath, and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely.”

Vs. 38         “And they shall be My people, and I will be their God.”

Vs. 39         “And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me forever, for the good of them, and of their children after them.”

Vs. 40         “And I will make an Everlasting Covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good, but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from Me.”

Vs. 41 “Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with My whole heart and with My whole soul.”

Vs. 42 “For thus saith the Lord, like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.”

Jeremiah 30: 3, 10,11,17,18,22,23,24.

Vs. 3 “For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.”

Vs. 10 “Therefore fear thou not, O My servant Jacob, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and be quiet and none shall make him afraid.”

Vs. 11 “For I am with thee, saith the LORD to save thee from afar and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet and none shall make him afraid.”

Vs. 17 “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an outcast, saying this is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.”

Vs. 18 “Thus saith the LORD; behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacobs tents, and again the captivity of Jacobs tents, and have mercy on his dwelling places; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.”

Vs. 22 “And ye shall be My people, and I will be your God.”

Vs. 23 “Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth fourth with fury, a continuing whirlwind, it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.”

Vs. 24 “The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until He have performed the intents of His heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.”

___________________________________________________

Up to now we’ve approached the topic of the Two Christs by examining a cross section of biblical prophecies touching on the main points. Hopefully, this general synopsis of the Two Anointed Ones and Christ the King has contributed to your knowledge of God and His Two Sons: Yahoshuah Mashiach (Jesus Christ) and Lord Haile Selassie I Mashiach. We now wish to focus on H.I.M. (His Imperial Majesty) the Lord Haile Selassie I  combining scriptures with history to provide concrete evidence that a man born on the 28 day of Tammuz in the year 5652 (July 23 1892) in Ethiopia, Africa was in fact Immanuel (God with us) and that this Man/God was instrumental in creating and preserving the Nation of Israel.

Jeremiah 31: 1- 14, 16, 17, 22, 23, 31 -34

Vs.1  “At the same time, saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.”

Vs. 2  “Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.”

Vs. 3  ;The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn thee.”

Vs. 4  “Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel: thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go faith in the dances of them that make merry.”

Vs. 5  “Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.”

Vs. 6  “For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, arise ye, and let us go up to Zion unto the Lord our God.”

Vs. 7  “For thus saith the Lord; sing with gladness for Jacob and shout among the chief of the nations: publish ye, praise ye, and say O Lord, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.”

Vs. 8  “Behold, I will bring them the North Country, and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall return thither.”

Vs. 9  “They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them. I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father of Israel, and Ephraim is my first born.”

Vs. 10 “Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, he that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.”

Vs. 11 “For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.”

Vs. 12 “Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.”

Vs. 22 “How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? For the Lord hath created a new thing in the earth, a woman shall compass a man.

Vs. 23 “Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; as yet they shall use this speech in the Land of Judah and the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; the Lord bless thee, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness.”

Vs. 31 “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that, I will make a New Covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah.’

Vs. 32 “Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was a husband unto them, saith the Lord.”

Vs. 33 “But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be their God, and they shall be my people.”

Vs. 34 “And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and everyman his brother, saying, know the Lord, for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”

Vs. 35 “Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is his name.”

Vs. 36 “If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.”

Vs. 16 “In those days shall Judah be saved and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The Lord our righteousness.”

Vs. 17 “For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the Throne of the house of Israel.’

Also found in Chapter 24: 6, 7

Vs. 7  “And I will give them a heart to know ME, that I AM JAHOVAH: and they shall be My people, and I will be their God; for they shall return unto ME with their whole heart.”

Consider Jeremiah 18: 9

Jeremiah’s Book of Prophecy Jeremiah 3: 18, 19.

Vs. 18 “ In those days the House of  Judah shall walk with the House of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land to the North, to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.”

Vs. 19 “But I said, how shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? And I said, Thou shalt call me, My Father, and shall not turn away from me.”

Vs. 15 “And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out I will return, and have compassion on them, and will bring them again, every man to his heritage and every man to his land.”

Chapter 5

See how precisely Jeremiah expresses the great prophecy of Christ the King on his Throne, and the coincidence of the two greatest prophecies ever prophesized by stating that in the time of Christ the king, Israel will be re-united as when Joshua first brought them into the promised land. For Jeremiah uses words like, “In that day, and at that time. Check it out starting with Jeremiah 23: 3-8.

Vs. 3  “And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.”

Vs. 4  “And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the LORD.”

1. 5 “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous branch and a king shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgement and justice in the earth.”

Vs. 6  “In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNES.”

Vs. 7  “Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, the LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.”

Vs. 8  “But, the LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the of the house Israel out of the North Country, and from all countries whither I had driven them, and they shall dwell in their own land.”

Jeremiah reiterates these prophecies in Chapter 33. I begin with verse 2.

Vs. 2  “Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it, the LORD is his name.”

Vs. 3  “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew the great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”

1. 6 “Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them, the abundance of peace and truth.”

Vs. 7  “And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return and will build them, as at the first.’

Vs. 14 “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that sure thing, which I have promised, unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.”

Vs. 15 “In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of Righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgement and righteous in the land.”

Vs. 16 “In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely, and this is the name wherewith she shall be called. The LORD our righteousness.”

Vs. 17 “For thus saith the LORD, David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel.”

And chapter 32:37 – 42

Vs. 42 “For thus saith the Lord, like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.”

Jeremiah 30: 3, 10,11,17,18,22,23,24

Vs. 3  “For, lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.”

Vs. 10 “Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the Lord; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for 10, I will save thee from far and thy seed from the Land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet and none shall make him afraid.”

Vs.1  “At the same time, saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.”

Vs. 2  This saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wildeness, even Israel, when to cause him to rest.”

Vs. 7  “And I will give them a heart to know ME, that I AM JAHOVAH: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return unto ME with their whole heart.”

Consider Jeremiah 18: 9

Vs. 9  “And at what instant shall I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a Kingdom, to build and to plant it?”

Jeremiah’s Book of Prophecy is sprinkled with ‘Final Day” Prophecy, starting with Jeremiah 3: 18, 19

Vs. 8  “In those days the House of Judah shall walk with the House of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land to the North, to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.”

Vs. 19 “But I said, how shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? And I said, Thou shalt call me, My Father, and shall not turn away from Me.’

And again in Jeremiah 12: 15

Vs. 15 “And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out I will return, and have compassion on them, and will bring them again, every man to his inheritance, and everyman to his land.”

Chapter 6

A look at Isaiah’s Prophecies concerning this Theme beginning with Isaiah 4:2

Vs. 2  “In that day shall the Branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.”

Moving thru Isaiah.

Isaiah 14: 1, 24, 26

Vs. 1  “For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land…..”

Vs. 24         “The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, ‘surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand.”

Vs. 26         “This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all nations.’

Isaiah 16: 4,5

Vs. 4  “Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab, be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceases, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.”

Vs. 5  “And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the Tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgement, and hasting righteousness.”

Isaiah 32: 1,16,17,18

Vs. 1  “Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgement.”

Vs. 16 “Then judgement shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteous remain in the fruitful field.”

Vs. 17 “And the work of righteousness shall be peace, and the effect of righteousness: quietness and assurance for ever.’

Vs. 18 “And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in a sure dwelling, and in quite resting places.”

And again, in Isaiah 33: 16, 17

Vs. 16 “He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munition of rocks: bread shall be given him; and his waters shall be sure.

Vs. 17 “Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.”

To me this speaks of the natural attributes of the land of Ethiopia, with its remoteness, its high elevation, and it is abundantly blessed with the abundance of waters that become the great Nile River. It is a historical fact that Ethiopia, the centre of mankind on earth, and which through tradition claim the world’s oldest, longing lasting Empire, to which one crowned Emperor of would in truth and fact be King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

And it is a fact that this great King travelled in May, 1936 from his throne in Ethiopia to the coast by train, and from there by a boat to Haifa the British port in Palestine. He then proceeded to Jerusalem, where he stayed at the King David Hotel. Was it during this visit that the King called his people back again the second time? Isaiah explains.

This clearly in which Chapter 11, which states with all certainly the simultaneous nature of the King, His Kingdom, and His regathering of His people, Israel.

Now, from July 588 B.C.  Until May 15, 1948, Israel failed to establish itself as an independent nation. It yearned and strived to reach the time when their nation would be established the second time, and when they would be fully ransomed from captivity and wanderings.

Thus, we see H.I.M (His Imperial Majesty) Haile Selassie I, anointed the Head of the Church, and crowned King of Kings and Lord of Lords coming to Jerusalem in glory and majesty to “call again” His people, Israel, to be His nation and His people. Isaiah 11: 11 reads.

Vs. 11 “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people…”

Now all of this, has been factually and historically recorded, not only in our history but in His Holy Word as spoken and written by His prophets, not only the words of the Old Covenents but also the New Covenant. For Paul says in Hebrews 9: 28:

Vs. 28 “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall the appear the second time, without sin unto salvation.”

For why would Jesus and His Apostle’s reiterate watch for you know not when, or ‘as a thief in the night.” Or like Paul writes in 1 Timothy 6: 14, 15

Vs. 14 “That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

Vs. 15 “Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords;

And as Peter indicates in 1 pet. 1:11

Vs. 11 “Searching what, or what manner of time the spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testifies before hand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

For remember in Acts 1: 6 the Apostles’s still wondered concerning ‘His Glory to follow.
Acts 1: 6&7
(6) “When they therefore were come together, they asked of Him, saying, lord, wilt Thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
(7) “and He said unto them, it is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.”

Chapter 7

I want to use the book of Psalms to demonstrate the Prophets description of the Living God of Israel, when he sits and rules and rules on his throne and the character of His reign. I begin with Christ’s Righteousness and His Judgement.

Psalm 9:4

“For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou sat on thy Throne Judging in Righteousness.”

Vs. 5  ‘Through Thee will we push down our enemies: through Thy name we will tread them under those that rise up against us.

Psalm 45: 6, 7

Vs. 6  ‘Thy Throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the Sceptre of Thy Kingdom is a righteous sceptre.”

Vs. 7  “Thou lovest Righteousness, and hateth wickedness: therefore God, Thy God, hath Anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows.’

Psalm 46: 4, 5

Vs. 4  “There is a river, the strength thereof shall make glad the city of God, the Holy place of the Tabernacles of the Most High.

Vs. 5  “God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.”

And Psalm 49: 2, 6,7,8,9.

Vs. 2  “For the LORD Most High is terrible; He is a great King over all the earth.”

Vs. 6  Sing praises to God, sing praises! sing praises unto our King, sing praises!’

And Psalm 53: 6; echoes the sentiment of Psalm 14:7.

Vs. 6  “Oh, that the salvation of Israel was come out of Zion! When God bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.”

And Psalm 67: 4

Vs. 4  “O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for Thou shalt Judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.”

Vs. 10         “And I said, this is my infirmity; but I will remember the years at the Right Hand of the Most High.”

Vs. 15         “Thou hast with Thy Arm redeemed Thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.”

Asaph prophesized, in Psalm 80, of God’s Right Hand, The BRANCH: the living God, who visits His people, for their salvation.

Psalm 80: 14, 15,17

Vs. 14 “Return, we beseech Thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;”

Vs. 15 “And the vineyard which Thy Right Hand hath planted, and The BRANCH that thou madest strong for Thyself.”     

Vs. 17 “Let Thy Hand be upon the Man of Thy Right Hand, upon the Son of Man who Thou madest strong for Thyself.’

In Psalm 85, the psalmist recalls the quality and character of His Reign.

 Vs. 10 ‘Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and Peace have kissed.’

Vs. 11 “Truth shall spring out of the earth; and Righteousness shall look down from heaven.

Vs. 12 “Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good, and our land shall yield her increase.

Vs. 13 “Righteousness shall go before H.I.M; and shall set us in the Way of His steps.”

Consider Psalm 87: 4

Vs. 4  “I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know Me: behold, O Philistia and tyre, with Ethiopia; this one was born there.”

There are 12 verses in Psalm 89 mentioning the Eternal King and His Throne.

Vs. 4  Thy seed will I establish forever, and build up Thy Throne to all generations. Selah.”

Vs. 17 “There will I make the Horn of David to bud; I have ordained A LAMP for Mine Anointed.

Vs. 18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon Himself shall His Crown flourish.”

Psalm 136: 12

Vs. 12 “With a Strong Hand, and with a stretched-out Arm: for His mercy endureth forever.”

It is important to note that references to the Arm of the LORD, the Right Hand of God, and the Holy One of Israel

Israel, and the LORD’S Anointed are all descriptions of God using a lower form of Power and Glory as the

Son of God – Immanuel—God with us). Because of Adam and Eve’s Deception, sin entered the world,

and since God and sin do not cohabitate, the voice of the LORD was heard walking in the garden or the

Son of God was heard. For the presence of God ALMIGHTY would destroy mankind.

Consider Proverbs 30: 4

Vs. 4  “Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? Who hath gathered the wind in His fists? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is His NAME, and what is His Son’s Name, if thou canst tell?

Solomon included this in his collection of Proverbs not only for its beauty and praise of God, but for its teaching capacity. For the answer to the riddle is not “what”, but rather

JAH THE FATHER,

YAH THE SON.

JAH MAKE YAH – The beginning of creation, and

JAHOSHUA – GOD SAVES or GOD IS SALVATION

And YAHOSHUA – The SON of GOD IS SALVATION

Both forms are written the same in their original language.

Thus, the translators used this or a similar formula for showing the differentiation:

LORD or GOD denote The Father

Lord or God denote The Son

Examples of this: Genesis 17, 22; 35:13

Vs. 22         ‘And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.’

35: 13 ‘And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him.”

The Name Often associated with the only Begotten Son of GOD: Jesus, seems to be derived from the Greek Easeus, or Son of Zeus, and still regardless of this apparent aberration in linguistics the Great Mercy of GOD toward us has Blessed the Name Jesus endowing it with Great Saving Power.

Thus, the translators used the following formula:

LORD + GOD donates the Father

Lord + God denotes the son

But when that, which is more perfect is come …., I go back to the Old Testament Zechariah 6: 11, 12

Vs. 11 “Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest;

Vs. 12 “And speak unto him, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; …’

At the synagogue library it is written

and translated as Yahoshua.

When referring to the Greatest Name, purist prefer to use Yahoshua for the son and Jahoshua for the Father. The Gospel of Mat., Mk., + Luke all include the passage of our Lord Jesus questioning, the scribes concerning King David’s quote:

Psalm 110:1

“The LORD said unto my Lord, sit thou at my right hand,”

What is meant is this:

The LORD: Jahovah or Father God; speaking to His ‘Anointed” the Son of God”

Again, Proverbs 30: 4

The Father: Jahovah, Jahoshua the Son: Adonai Yahoshua

JAH the Father, YAH the Son

In this regard the Old Testament is much more complete in displaying or framing the particular Character of God as needed.

We finish with our glance at Psalm 145.

Vs. 11 ‘They shall speak of Thy Glory and Thy Kingdom, and speak of Thy Power;

Vs. 12 “To make known to the sons of men His Mighty Acts, and the Glorious Majesty of His Kingdom.

Vs. 13 Thy Kingdom, and Thy Dominion endureth throughout all generations.”

Chapter 8   The Minor Prophets

Hosea – Chapter 1: 7, 11

Vs. 7  “But I will have Mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horse men.”

1. 11 ‘Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together and Appoint for themselves one head,”

Hosea – Chapter 2: 18 – 23

Vs. 18 ‘And in that day, will I make a Covenant for them with the beast of the field, and with the fowl of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely.

Vs. 19 And I will betroth thee unto Me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in Righteousness, and in Judgement, and in Loving Kindness, and in Mercies.

Vs. 20 “I will even betroth thee unto Me in Faithfulness: and thou shalt know Jahovah.

Vs. 21 “And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth;

Vs. 22 “And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil, and they shall hear Jezreel.

Vs. 23 “And I will sow her unto Me in the earth; and I will have Mercy on her that had not obtained Mercy; and I will say to them which were not My people, ‘Thou art My people, and they shall say, ‘Thou art my God.”

Chapter 3: 4 (Hosea)

Vs. 4  “For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a King, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without terephim:

Vs. 5  “Afterward, shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their King: and shall fear the LORD and the and His Goodness in the latter days.”

Hosea Chapter 6: 3, 11

Vs. 3  “Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.”

Vs. 11 “Also, O Judah, He hath set a harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.”

Hosea Chapter 8: 8, 10

Vs. 8  “Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.”

Vs. 10 “Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them,”

Hosea 14: 4, 5 – 8

Vs. 4  “I will heal their back sliding; I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.

Vs. 5  “I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as a lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.

Vs. 6  “His branches shall spread, and his beauty like the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.”

Vs. 7  “Behold, I will raise them out of the place wither ye have sold them, and will return your recompense upon your own head.”

Vs. 12 “Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to Judge all the nations round about.”

Vs. 16 “The LORD shall roar out of Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but JAHOVAH will be the hope of His people, and the strength of the children of Israel.”

Vs. 20 “But Judah shall dwell forever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.”

The Prophet Amos states the parallelism between Christ’s Return as King, and Israel being “replanted.’ (Born again as a nation)

Amos 9: 11-15

Vs. 11 “In that day, will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:

Vs. 12 “That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the nations that are called by My Name, saith the LORD that doeth this.

Vs. 13 “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the Plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.

Vs. 14         “And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them, and they shall plant wine yards, and drink the wine. Thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

Vs. 15         “And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land, which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.”

Next in order, Micah, is so beautiful, especially chapter 4 + 5, and so exact prophetically, describing Christ’s two advents, and the establishment of His Kingdom. Let me first give an historical review of “that day’ and “at that time”.

In the first half of the 20^th century, mankind endured immense difficult challenges: W.W.1. an international “Killer flu” epidemic, a worldwide financial crisis (the Great Depression), the War of Wars – W.W. 2, the Holocaust, and Israel’s birth. Also, during this time period, a few individuals succeeded in ascending to great power, authority, and dominance. Among them were Adolph Hitler, the Pope, Mussolini and Emperor Hirohito of Japan.

Adolph Hitler, claiming to be “the leader of “brilliance”, orchestrated elaborate ceremonies worshipping him. Every S.S. Officer had to personally swear full allegiance to him alone. he even replaced the Ten Commandments with his own nine commandments, and following Mussolini, he successfully induced the Pope to sign the Reich concordant silencing the Church from criticizing and resisting the Nazi’s.

Mussolini rose to power in Italy in the 1920’s when he succeeded in exiling the prince and replacing him as ruler. He then cowed the Catholic Church into signing the Lateran treaty (1929) in which the church was given the Vatican acreage, in exchange for not opposing his rule. His desire was to re-create the Roman Empire with himself as Emperor. The sentiment of the time, in Rome and in Italy was summed up by the words of the Bishop of Terracina immediately following Mussolini’s conquest of Ethiopia, “El Duce” (Mussolini’s handle) “today Italy is fascist and the hearts of all Italians beat together with yours. The nation is ready for any sacrifice to ensure the triumph of peace.”

In the Lateran Treaty Mussolini allocated lands to the Vatican. It was this independent acreage which enabled the Vatican to declare states’ rights and thus join the League of Nations, and eventually the United Nations while Mussolini’s grand scene “to re-create the Roman Empire” was taking shape.

With military support from Nazi Germany and the hopes and prayers of the Roman Catholic Church, Ethiopia succumbed in May of 1936, after a seven-month war. The sentiment of the time, in Rome and in Italy, after the news of victory, were summed up in the words of the Bishop of Terracina: “O Ducel” (Mussolini’s handle) “today Italy is fascist and the hearts of all Italians beat together with yours. The nation is ready for any sacrifice to ensure the triumph of peace and Roman and Christian civilizations … God bless you, O Duce.”

It is evident that there was collusion between the Roman Church with the fascist’s states of the era: Mussolini’s Italy, Franco’s Spain, and Hitlers Germany. These are three governments joined by a small government – the Vatican, and this small government was deeply instilled in all three. So, while Hitler supplied Franco and Italy arms and munitions, and the Church insured the people’s compliance. It is in this context that another leader came to international prominence when on June 30, 1936 he addressed the league of Nations, in Geneva, Switzerland, to petition for justice in regards to His people. He was Prophetic, in warning the world that impending destruction would follow should the nations not act together against fascism. The result of their inaction resulted in the destruction of rulers, nations, and the death of 75-85 million people, including 6 million Jews.

Additionally, it is important to bring you “up to speed” concerning this Man and his nation. For centuries and for centuries, Papal Rome had waged wars against Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Church has, always and consistently, kept holy and unchanged the Testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Commandments and Ordinances of God, as recorded by Moses. They flatly rejected Rome’s changing of the Sabbath to Sunday, relying, instead, on the Word of God.

Note it was the Ethiopian Faith that consecrated, by Anointing, the Emperor Haile Selassie I as its Head. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SCRIPTURE, THE EMPEROR HAILE SELASSIE I, BY THE ACT OF CONSECRATION, WAS ANOINTED “HEAD” OF THE ETHIOPIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH. [THE 1955 CONSTITUTION, CHAPTER 1, ARTICLES 2, 4. SEE ALSO THOMAS E. DOW JR., “THE THEORY OF CHARISM,” SOCIOLOGICAL QUARTERLY (SUMMER 1969)] For the Emperor, His Imperial Majesty (H.I.M), was related, by blood, to Jesus Christ, Himself, both being direct descendants of King David. Selassie I being the last of a continuous line of Emperors of which Solomon and Sheba’s son, Menelik 1^st. At His Coronation; on Nov. 2, 1930; He was crowned King of Kings, and Lords of Lords, and proclaimed the Glory of the LORD God Almighty, being “transfigured” as Jesus was to the elected faithful. His very name Haile Selassie I, literally means – “The Might of the Trinity”, and in an historical study of H.I.M. one will know the truth found in the Scriptural Prophecies of this age.

For the scriptures speak of a Man of the lineage of King David who would, in truth and righteousness, be crowned ‘Christ the King”, and that this King, from Jerusalem, would command his four winds to come from the four corners of the earth, to re-gather His people, Israel, to the land he purchased for them. (Psalm 78:54). Israel is His Eternal Kingdom and he is their everlasting King-Immanuel. For just as Jesus Christ removed the vail that separated men from God, by His Blood Sacrifice, bringing in Salvation for all mankind, in one day; this Christ the King-established His Kingdom, Israel, in just one day. It is an established, historical fact that this King was in Jerusalem in May 1936, and that 12 years later, to the very day, Israel was re-born.

Who has heard such things, who has believed our report or as Isaiah Prophesized; Isaiah 66:8.

Vs 8 “Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? Or shall a nation His work be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed; she brought forth her children.”

After His work in Jerusalem, He addresses the League of Nations, in Geneva, where the LORD had gathered together the nations of the earth for Judgment (June 30, 1936). It is important to quote to you a portion of this speech. For a complete text of his words and the accompanying eye witness accounts read ‘Haile Selassie I – Ethiopia’s Lion of Judah “by Peter Schwab, or “Hitler’s Pope” by John Cornwell, a very essential reading.

I sincerely hope this letter is beneficial in helping you know the truth concerning Christ the King. In knowing the historical record one can then know and enjoy the scripture to their fullness, so don’t believe me, but rather, believe the Bible: it is the WORD of GOD.

Excerpts of His Imperial majesty’s (H.I.M.) address before the League of Nations (June 30, 1936)

“None other than Myself and My brave companions in arms could bring the League of Nations the undeniable proof. The appeals of My delegates addressed to the league of Nations had remained without any answer; My delegates had not been witnesses. That is why I decided to come Myself to bear witness against the crime perpetrated against My people and give Europe a warning of the doom that awaits it, if it should bow before the accomplished fact.

……. Indeed, the Rome government, as it has today openly proclaimed, has never ceased to prepare for the conquests of Ethiopia. The Treaties of Friendship it signed with Me, were not sincere; their only objective was to hide its real intentions from Me. The Italian government asserts that for fourteen years it has been preparing for its present conquest. It, therefore, recognizes today that when it supported the admission of Ethiopia to the League of nations in 1923, when it concluded the Treaty of Friendship in 1928, when it signed the pact of Paris out lawing war, it was deceiving the whole world.’

“In October 1935, the Fifty-two Nations who are listening to Me today gave Me an assurance that the aggressor would not triumph…”

“What became of the promises made to Me as long ago as October? I noted with grief, but without surprise, that three powers considered their undertakings under the Covenant as absolutely of no value. Their connections with Italy impelled them to refuse to take any measures whatsoever in order to stop Italians aggression. …..”

“I assert that the problem submitted to the Assembly today, is a much wider one. It is not merely of the settlement of Italian aggression. It is Collective Security: it is the very existence of the League of Nations. It is the confidence that each state is to place in international treaties. It is the value of promises made to small states that their integrity and their independence shall be respected and ensured. It is, in all sincerity, that I submit the consideration to the Assembly. At a time when My people are threatened with extermination, when the support of the League may ward off the final blow, may I be allowed to speak with complete frankness, without reticence, in all directness such as is demanded by the rule of equality as between all state members of the League?

Apart from the Kingdom of the Lord, there is not on this earth any nation that is superior to any other. Should it happen that a strong government finds it way with impunity destroy a weak people, then the hour strikes for that weak people to appeal to the League of Nations to give its judgement in all freedom. God and history will remember your judgement.
