WORLD AFFAIRS
IS THIS PRESENT WORLD (ORDER) NEAR ITS END?
When we look at the present world conditions, the immediate question comes up, can things last much longer? Everywhere you look you sense an atmosphere of restlessness and discomfort. The economy is shaky, there are wars and rumours of wars, the situation in Iraq reminds you of a ball of twine that has become so knotted up that you will never be able to unravel it. Millions are starving and are without shelter. The earth is being stripped and devastated to such an extent that it is looking ugly. Our industries are choking our atmosphere so heavily that large sections of the world are feeling suffocated. And there is so much more about this that we can say. There is an uncomfortable feeling that we are under a cloud of imminent disaster.
The other day I travelled to Johannesburg by the Ben Schoeman highway for the first time after many years. I did not drive myself and could freely look around. I was amazed and astounded to notice that Pretoria and Johannesburg are almost joined together. I was truly surprised to see the many buildings, factory complexes and houses. And the road was choked with traffic! The two cities were just as full. The vehicles of all sorts were jostling and weaving so that I was very relieved that I was not driving.
In my mood of amazement and wonder, I started to think about many things. Gone were all the beautiful maize fields and other agricultural crops on the lands of yesteryear. Now those areas are covered with buildings and criss-cross roads. Where will the food for the teeming multitudes come from? Where are they all going? What are they thinking, do they think at all? I myself was not feeling well – I was on my way to consult a specialist physician in Johannesburg. At what early time in the morning do these people have to arise in the morning to get through all that traffic? At what time of the day do they get home again? What do they feel like at the end of such a nerve-wrecking day? Is there still time for their wives or for their husbands? (Yes, it was quite amazing to see how many drivers were women.) How much time do they have at the end of the day for their children? Where were those children during the day? And so I could continue. I so wish that I could really convey to you what I saw and felt. How are these people managed and governed? For how much longer are these people going to carry on the same over and over every day, before they break ranks? Is this how God planned it in the beginning? You see, all things have a beginning, and an ending. That planning had an end in view. But that the milling crowds have forgotten a long time ago, or perhaps even never knew how things came into being and where they had been planned to end. At birth they were thrown into the milling stream, and those who survived, are now battling so hard to keep head above water, that they have no time to think about anything else. How do you get such a person’s attention? He is engaged in such a battle for survival, that he has no time to listen to you.
This is what Jesus said about the people in Noah’s time:
“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” (Matthew24: 37-39, K.J.V.)
Even the fact that you came to a stop and have listened to me thus far is a miracle already in itself. You had to come to a halt somewhere along the “road” to read before the “traffic officer” stopped next to you and warned you to move on because you are holding up the “traffic”. Maybe you will be allowed a few more minutes to read on.
IT IS VERY NEAR:
Just the same as the complete turnover that awaited the people in the days of Noah was much nearer than they expected or believed (because they did not believe Noah in any case), so it is also for us, for you and me. There was a Plan in the beginning, and also a Road Map of exactly where to go. God created this earth beautiful and perfect and put the first man upon it and commanded him to dress it and to keep it (to manage, govern and protect it). He gave him the exact blueprint and instructions how to do it. He also put it in print for him – it is called the Word of God. Exactly like all the buildings between Pretoria and Johannesburg (that surprised me so) and all the buildings of the two cities and every building on earth has to have a finely drawn blueprint and strict specifications, the commandments and ordinances of God for the keeping and protection of this beautifully planned universe which He created (designed) are even more precise and specific.
Unfortunately man, Adam, unto whom all this was entrusted, did not listen to His voice, and things began to go wrong immediately. Soon there was murder, fratricide. Thorns and thistles, which should never have been, appeared. Man became so corrupt that God had to flood the earth with water and destroyed man and beast, only Noah and his family and all the animals he took with him into the ark, were preserved. After the Flood, God made a new beginning. Man soon began to multiply again, and so also violence and corruption unfortunately. Now we stand at the end of this second dispensation. In this period of grace God sent us a Second Adam and revealed unto us His love and compassion as only He could because He is God. Those among mankind who accept this grace will survive this end time judgement now at the very door, and will live forever.
But there also entered into the world another seed which carries a gene that will never accept God. The struggle between the seed of God and this other seed that has been going on throughout the ages is now at its final stage. It is this end time conflict that we are now experiencing. All this misery of these end time days, all the hatred and envy, all the anguish and madness of the nations is a sure sign that this battle has commenced. We can continue making news commentaries until we are raging mad, we may continue to try and be very clever as much as we like, but the Titanic is near the iceberg. It has been to inform you and prepare you for this very time that I have spent myself these past almost fifty years through my writings and preaching to get this message through to the right Seed (Jesus calls them “My sheep”, see Ezekiel 34 and John 10).
ISRAEL AND THE HEATHEN:
Those who listened to God’s Voice come from Israel, and those who did not, come mainly from the heathen. But there are also those from Israel who have also been disobedient to the call. The finer detail we must leave with God, we will never know everything. Read Deuteronomy 29:29. God called Abraham and then his son Isaac and after him his son Jacob from whom came the Israel nation. God made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and their seed after them an everlasting covenant. Jesus the Christ would rule the world with them as the nucleus of His Government.
We read in Deuteronomy 32:8
“When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.”
In Psalm 24:1 it is written
“The earth is the LORD’S and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”
And in Psalm 2:8
“ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”
The angel said to Mary:
” And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call His Name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall he called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David: And He shall reign over the house of Jacob, for ever; and of His kingdom there shall be no end.”
David’s throne has always been a literal earthly throne like the throne of the Caesars in the time of Jesus. It is nowhere written that it has ever become a throne which is now set up in our hearts and also that the house of Jacob has now become the Church which is made up of all races on earth.
The world’s only hope is that these Scriptures shall be fulfilled literally. And at the same time that Jesus shall come and take over the throne of His father David and take over the dominion given to the first Adam, and govern this earth as the King of kings and the Lord of lords according to the laws and statutes written in the Bible.
This also implies that the heathen shall be put in his place and that Israel’s rightful place as the governing race under God shall be restored to her. All the history of the ages that are past (Our libraries are full of it) can be summed up in the tragic fact that this Israel race which consists of mainly the European nations of the West, have abdicated and that the heathen has taken over, a status to which they have never been ordained. It is a fact that all things that are worth while on this earth have been put there by the Europeans.
We here in Southern Africa are a typical example. We established beautiful farms which we have built up from nothing. A misguided world opinion has driven our European owners off these farms and given them to the African people. What has been the result? These beautiful productive farms are fast being turned into waste land. There is hardly any instance in this country which is not being controlled by an African. See the outcome for yourself.
As in the days of Noah, a drastic intervention must come before this world is totally destroyed. Take heed, I am sending out this urgent warning. Beware of the false prophets that preach peace and safety!
