IS BARAK OBAMA LUCIFER? - Luke 10:18

IS BARAK OBAMA LUCIFER?

Luke 10:18

And He said to them; “I was watching HaSatan fall from heaven like lightening.” (NASB)  {My study Bible of preference for the past 30 years.} .

SHALOM To all the faithfull in the true and common faith of Yeshua Moshiach, and to all who are circumcised in heart unto the Holiness of Eloah YHWH

Part (a) - EXPOSING THE FALSE TEACHERS.

I've been meaning to have this article posted to you by now, but truth is more I got into this, the more study I desired to do. And now that it is done, I am making this available to a much wider audience than our on groups and pages. I would ask you to help me to spread the word far amnd wide, and in this way, you are helping us in this work of service to the whole body (kehila) of our LORD and Messiah, Yeshua.

This article was first written and posted as a note to my Timeline on Face Book. (David Israel)

 Its is in direct response to the video message put out by Charles Crouch, to which my attention was drawn, and to the the effect that Barak Obama is the anti-Messiah of scripture. Crouch is citing one single text - Luke 10:18 - as his “authority” 

Apart from the absurd notion of attempting to build a house from one solitary brick, I determined to contest this ridiculous piece of manipulative sensationalism, (posing as prophetic insight) - hence my article, here published, and suitably revised and updated for the blogsite.

Unlike Mr Crouch et al - I have as ever sought to be diligent in my studies, my sole aim being to show you all (and convincingly so) as thoroughly as I am enabled, exactly why this kinda preaching and so called “teaching” is false and thus misleading, and therefore, destructive to the body of Messiah Yeshua. 

It must however be said that Mr Crouch is by no means the only false teacher from whom I have heard this sensationalist claim. But however many of them there may be, (and the messages I have seen have been identical) they ALL  are WRONG.

Indeed, this kind of shoddy and negligent not to mention Bible language ignorant offering reminds me strongly of the word of YHWH against the false prophets of Judah; those led by Hananiah - (remember him?) - the leader of the many false prophets who "steal their messages from one another."    

Some of you may say - "Well that was then, this is now!" Alright then. But I say: if it is no different now than then, will YHWH speak a different word to the false prophets of our time? 

This then is THE word also against the many false prophets of our time. 

Against whose face I and others of like-mind and spirit to myself - are sent to confront, expose and reprove.

For this is the time of the Spirit and Power of Elijah! Who comes for the restoration of all truth to the hearts of Elohim`s true people. 

With all confidence in Him who sent me I offer this rebuke to Mr Crouch et al - 

"Then Yiremeyahu the prophet said to Hananiah the prophet; "Listen now Hananiah. The Lord (Adonai) has NOT sent you and you have made this people trust in a lie. Therefore thus says the LORD (Adonai) "Behold! I am about to remove you from the face of the earth."  Jer 28:15-16

Now we know, and you can see for yourselves by reading, that YHWH went further to prophesy that Hananiah would die that same year. and in vs 17 we read that this is exactly what happened to him - "he died in the 7th month" 

I do believe that when YHWH comes amongst the false religions, to respond to the measuring rod of the prophets and apostles, we shall all see many false prophets, lying servants and false sons indeed die, as in the day of Ananias and Saphira.

But we take no pleasure in this; For YHWH Himself has said that he takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked.

What is WICKEDNESS? See the apocalyptic vision of the priophet Zechariah - The Woman in The Ephah. 

*(I have written an article about this vision in the blog archive) 

Wickedness is the working of falsehood - of every kind - deceit and faud and corruption - perversion, hypocricy lies. The corruption and distortion of Scriptural truth - this is wickedness, and I say this without compunction; Mr Crouch and those of foolish mind and spirit and to his own who have promoted such garbage as we are going to expose here and now, are workers of wickedness. they are akin to that Woman in the Ephah - carried away by unclean birds to establish a temple to an anti-messiah idol in Shinar of Babyon. (Babylon = Confusion) - None are so confused as those who hear such men speak. The men themselves are set in place by GOD not HaSatan, as a curse to the whole land, during the times when there has been - as the prophet Amos predicted, a famine of HEARING God`s words in the land.  Amos 8:11

But today I am not prophesying the imminent death of Mr Crouch nor any one of the many false prophets who plague our lands. It is not yet time for that. This is the time for final warning not ultimate execution. Today I speak FOR the welfare and wellbeing of the CHRISTIAN - as always in all that I write; but I do speak AGAINST THE LYING TONGUES OF THE FALSE PROPHETS WHO ARE DECEIVING AND MISLEADING AND DELUDING THEM.

We do not wish for the death of Mr Crouch - nor indeed the deaths of anyone of them - But I do ask with all boldness of faith that YHWH by the Ruach Kodesh who works with us - will mightily rebuke him and expose him to the people for what he truly is; a fraud and charlatan in a smart suit - who deludes the people into thinking he is a great man sent from GOD. I pray b`Shem Yeshua that He be silenced and removed from ministry. Some of my very good friends within the Christain religion still  listen to this man. 

Part (b) - EXPOSING THE FALSE TEACHING.

What I am going to do here then is show you all exactly with diligence why and how Mr Crouch is wrong. 

Please take your time to read and follow the study below. and then give me your honest feedback.

To begin:

The fundamental problem most gentile christian people are gonna have with such passages as this (and the entire book of Galatians would be another) will undoubtedly stem from their inability (due to lack of revelational knowledge) and their failure to handle correctly and rightly dvide the scriptures, so to be equipped of God, as workmen approved, and able to make a clear distinction between individual terms used by the apostles Paul being a prime example, or in this case, even the Messiah HIMSELF.

Simply stated simply, they have no Hebrew and rekly on the knowledge of their errant teachers, and their own language versions of the Scriptures, - and their Bibles are mere paraphrases of the original Hebreaic and Greek manuscripts 

In the book of Galatians (The letter to ha galutim) for example, we all see the single word LAW being used for every occasion Paul (Sha`ul) speaks in relation to something related to that term. 

Paul however, being a JEW of he tribe of Benyamin, a scholar, scribe and Pharisee, actually uses as many as six different words to describe the distinct application of the Law he is making in a particular text or passage. 

Let me take a moment to graphically illustrate this for you: 

Whenever Sha`ul speaks of the LAW He is apt to use the Hebrew noun Halakah - meaning commandment or Law) At times however, he speaks of a Torah enactment, Takanah or Gezerah -  at others he speaks of Ma`asei Ha Torah- (the Works of the Law) and at others still, he speaks of "work" - Ma`aseh - Sometimes he refers to traditions of elders or uses the word "custom" - (Heb - Minhag) 

The unschooled and unlearned - including the uncultivated wild olive branches among the Gentiles (ha Goyim) who having no Hebrew or true knowledge of Hebraic scripture are going to find it impossible to read this book, by a true and unobscured light; let alone expect to gain a right understanding, (Hebraic mind-set) since they are unable to make any kind of right divsiion or distinction between the various aspects of TORAH Shilikha Sha`ul is discussing.

 Now; having set forth this illustration to amplify my argument, lets get to the problem we face from Luke 10:18

Mr CROUCH here in this video, is using Hebrew and Greek, and he is saying Aramaic is Hebrew

Mr Crouch and all the others I've seen promoting this “sensationalist” and “curiosity feeding” idea is not speaking the truth.

Why do I say this? Because Aramaic is NOT Hebrew. it is Aramaic. There are to be sure, elements of HEBREW in the Aramaic tongue. But it was the language of the northern regions of haeretz in the time of Yeshua the Nazarene. In the south – in (Judea, they used a different form of dialect. Much like the difference between the vocabulary and sound of a New Yorker and a Texan – in in the UK a Geordie (Newcastle upon Tyne) and a Cockney (East end of London)

Yeshua spoke almost all His words in Aramaic - not Hebrew,

Aramaic is not a pure language whereas Hebrew is.  I speak some Aramaic and more Hebrew my daughter speaks no Aramaic and fluent Hebrew. She asks me what does that word mean or this word mean. Understand?

Also Here Crouch is not being honest in his presentation of the Hebraic text either (if Yeshua had even spoken it in Hebrew which He did not) Crouch is being selective and using one Hebrew word for lightening - but her are at least 6 other Hebrew words for lightening.

For instance look at this:

Job 28:26 - “When HE set a limit for the rain and of course for the thunderbolt” (NASB)

This word translated in MY preferred study Bible as thunderbolt is the Hebrew word caziyz pronounced – khaw-zeez and is derived from an obsolete root meaning to glare; a flash or bright cloud of -------- lightening. But it is translated in the English language paraphrase NASB as thunderbolt making it subjective (unless one has to discipline to use a dictionary) to the mind and imagination and association image of each individual reader.

Or what about this

Job 37:3 - “Under the whole heaven, He lets it, loose and His lightening to the ends of the earth.” (NASB)

Here however, a different Hebrew word is used, this time – the verb `owr pronounced ore and from a root noun meaning light – as in starlight for prime example. Derived from a word meaning to be luminous, as light at the break of day, an d by poetic extension, to be as it were a glorious light or even – the kindle such a light or to show – reveall that light – thus in Job 37:3 the verb `owr means literally to be an illuminationor luminaryy, so as to (by permissible extension) make happy – as in day light, morninglightt etc.

So does this word mean lightening? It can do, but it is far more likely the chosen word or suggested word or even inspired word, given to a poet – a prophet – for prophets often spoke in poetic form. (As did Yeshua Himself on numerous occasions. (Sermon on the Mount) being a chief example of this form of delivery.

Or again, what about this:

Ezek 1:13b-14 - “---- the fire was bright and lightening was flashing from the fire. - (the original Hebrew reads “”like the appearance of the flashing of lightening was coming out of the fire) And the Living Beings (also called Cherubim)ran to and fro like bolts of lightening” (NASB)

In the original Hebrew, two different words are used for the kind of lightening portrayed in vs 13 and the kind portrayed in vs 14, yet the English language paraphrase NASB renders both words as simply “lightening” and so that's what Paraphrase Bible readers will see and think and understand. “Oh so it was lightening”

In vs 14 the Hebrew word is bazaq – pronounced baw-zawk – again an obsolete poetic word meaning “to lighten”for instance “like a flash of lightening” - a momentary illumination if you will according to the prophetic poetic.

In vs 13 .the word is baraq – pronounced baw-rawk – and meaning “lightening” - a gleam of bright light – a flash of the sword – a bright and glittering light.

But for Mr. Crouch et al to say as if with apostolic authority that "Yeshua said Baraq" -  is just not factually provable, because in plain truth He did not speak that in Hebrew but Aramaic, and secondly, it is written in your Bibles in Greek, not in either Hebrew or Aramaic.

Not only is it misleading its plain stupid – to suggest that even if Yeshua had used the Hebrew word baraq in Luke 10:18 he was prophesying about the distant future president (unpopular tho he may be) of the United States of America. The scriptures are absolutely chock o block with the given name DAVID – but HEY my given name is DAVID. I wonder does Mr Crouch seriously believe that the prophets of Yisrael were telling you all in advance all about me?

Its a false and misleading presentation, contrived by the deliberate manipulation of actual factual textual evidence; and to what need? Surely we are not amiss to think it is for the sake of titillating (tickling) the ears of his end time, mystery hungry listeners. And beside all that, its a good idea for a message on the circuit and it might even make good video, CD tape collection and BOOK. See what I'm saying here? Sure ya do. Its how the Christian Church works isn't it cos we have all been there. Bit in any case, you dint need to have the experience of having been mauled by a leopard to know in your mind that the leopard is a very dangerous animal and a threat to human life. That principle holds good for appraisals in the Kingdom of God too. selah

But here is yet another example of how and where the Gentile reader of Scripture is at a disadvantage.

One cannot assume or presume that because one is “saved” (smile) they have access to the True Knowledge of God. Are you shocked? Well look the Scriptures were not written for the Gentiles but for the HEBREWS. If you don't have any Hebrew available, or the mind set of a Hebrew, you cant just start reading and hope to understand very much. You can say Holy Spirit told you this or that all you like, but it just ant so – its not possible. Because Holy Spirit is MIND OF GOD and as much as HE reveals to His true people, the WORD conceals from the false people. The Gentile cannot push him or herself forward at HIS table and make the Hebrew beg for their scarps under it. (What did Yeshua say in so many words to the Syrophonecian woman?! Or again, the Woman at Samaria, who was part Jewish in any case. )

This is a point well made by David Stern; writing on this theme in the JEWISH NEW TESTAMENT COMMENTARY he writes: (as comment to Luke 9:31) - {In Greek translation Bibles} --- “the Greek word Exodos literally means “departure” and usually translated as “death” as it appears in some Paraphrase versions. While Yeshua was indeed to die, and then after His resurrection, “depart” into heaven, the use of the word here , after the appearance of Moshe (Moses) brings to mind everything with the Jewish “EXODUS” {Shemoth) from Egypt.”

He continues: “The Greek word “exodos” appears in the NT in only two other places; Heb11:22 where it specifically refers to the Exodus from Egypt and 2 Pet 1:15 where it means Kefa`s (Peters) own death.”

Beloved! As an Emissary of Moshiach, my purpose is to know what is the will of YHWH and the understand the meaning of the words which is written in the book of Truth, that I Might represent Messiah, the WORD of God as if in person to you. My aim to you is that of a bond slave, to teach you true knowledge with understanding by the Ruach, trusting also in the Ruach to make it good to those who have an ear to hear.

Thus, we do our work diligently, striving towards all excellence, lest we too, fall short of the mark and displease Him who sent us and is alive in us.

The plain truth is that in all serious probability, Yeshua the Nazarene did not use the Hebrew word “Baraq” on the occasion of His teaching as in Luke 10:18 - neither that word nor its Aramaic equivalent.

He did not, because He is true to the Tanakh OT and the idea to the Jew (Yehudim) is that Lucifer is as a fallen STAR not a bolt of lightening. And one of the Hebrew words of Tenakh actually means STAR and is also associated with the light flash of lightening. This is what I will show you when I finish my deeper research

Prov 18:9 – He who is slack (negligent) in his work is brother to him who DESTROYS!

John 10:10 - “The thief comes only to steal and kill and DESTROY!”

Ask yourself a question and answer honestly in your heart. Who is the thief who speaks here?

And what is His real aim (whether he know it or not)

And who does he work for? YHWH or the Adversary?

AND THIS IS WHAT I AM SAYING TO YOU ALL.

Thirdly then, I'mmm gonna say this - to start naming the ANTI-MESSIAH iridiculousss since He has not yet been revealed to YHWH`s true prophets or Yeshua`s true apostles. (see 2 Thess 2) and read the whole chapter carefully. and prayerfully ok? 

There are two anti-Messiah figures who are mentioned primarily in scripture (Tanakh) (OT) and one of them we all know EMPEROR CONSTANTINE who founded Christianity and the Christian Church in 325 AD. See Dan 7 for proof.  

As to the second one, all we know from the written testimony of scripture is that he is a man who's god is MAMMON - WE CAN SAY CONCLUSIVELY THAT he is therefore obviously in league with and close association with the BEAST who comes out of the earth in Rev 13. the second BEAST the second Anti-Messiah type. (But this of itself does not afford the rash conclusion that in either or even both cases of the Rev 13 beasts, the man anti Messiah and the Beast are one and the same)

YHWH is speaking about a type or office or system - of the world not so much an individual man.(just in the same way that Mammon is not merely money but organised wealth and worldly things (Love not the world nor the things that are in the world - for the world is under the influencef anti-Messiah spirit) writes Shliki (apostle or Emissary)YYYochannanben Zebedee in 1 John

 He (YHWH) is more likely speaking about the Office of the Presidency of the United States (or the mysterious BEAST like mystery powers who are behind and above that Throne) than about any one of its occupants -- including Barak Obama. And thus we appraise the testimony of THE WORD of GOD, who as John 1:1-9 tells us plainly is in the beginning with God and is God) and the one who is speaking to the Jewish disciples through the man Yeshua the Nazarene in Luke 10:18 

This is a literal Greek translation of what Yeshua actually said in the Aramaic language in that text:

And He said to them - “I viewed Satan as lightening” (meaning as a bright or brilliant flash of the light of a star) from (out of – implied) the heaven – falling”   (The Apostolic Bible – Polyglot) 
This idea then fits in perfectly with the indertsandng of the Jews worldwide, that HaSatn having begun his created existence as an archangel – reblled against the Throne and nature of YHWH and was expelled from the heavnely places. (3rd heaven) and tht his FALL from Grace to the earth appeared as a bright Falling Star across the sky.)

I believe I have shown that Mr Crouch et al are not fit to preume themselves anointed teachers of The Most High God but are in truth and reality brothers of him that destroys – and that is Ha Satan himself.

 Shalom.
