The secret battle for planet Earth is raging on with England, Russia, China and the Pentagon leading the charge against the Satanic Khazarian mafia. In the biggest development last week, Microsoft’s Bill Gates, fearing for his life, surrendered to the Chinese and is providing them with insider information about the Pharmacidical Mafia…Asian Secret Society and Pentagon sources say.

The official Chinese Xinhua News Agency reports Gates offered $100 million to fight the “new coronavirus.” Chinese President Xi Jinping wrote to Gates:

“I support your cooperation with relevant Chinese institutions, and look forward to enhanced coordination and concerted efforts in the international community for the sake of health and well-being of all.”

The “relevant Chinese institutions” Gates is cooperating with most certainly include the Chinese secret services.

Asian Secret Society sources told the Pentagon last week that they are aware the bioweapon attack on China was carried out by the same people who assassinated President John F. Kennedy and orchestrated 9.11.

The Asians and the Pentagon are thus cooperating and sharing pinpoint information to ensure all guilty parties “are led to justice.”

CoronaVirus
In Japan, there is an elaborate corporate media play-act about people who were quarantined on a cruise ship and then sent all over the world without being properly tested. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20200220_12/


However, it looks like South Korea, whose film “Parasite” recently won an Oscar, is now about to get the best pandemic acting award.  There is so much fear porn spinning around this latest virus that it has now infected all the patients in an insane asylum in South Korea. https://www.zerohedge.com/health/almost-all-patient-south-korean-psychiatric-ward-are-infected-coronavirus

Here is what CIA and Australian intelligence sources had to say about the act unfolding there:

“Daegu, South Korea is the next chosen death center outside of China.  There will be lots of deaths there.  South Korea was targeted with this coronavirus to bring down the economy.  It is working as the KOSPI is down 3.2% today.  The manufacturing centers for hi-tech are being targeted.  Daegu is a manufacturing industrial city.  It’s the economic and industrial core of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region, one of the major industrial areas in Korea.

Is it just a coincidence that the manufacturing sectors are being hit by this designer coronavirus? This bioengineered pandemic was actually planned to create global pandemonium and it’s doing just that.  Next it may be a coronavirus infected Werewolf in London running amok.  God Save the Queen! 

This is all about collapsing the major economies of the world and the banking system.”


World trade is seizing up and markets are about to implode.  In just the past week alone $7 Trillion was erased from the global markets (It’s all computer entries).

We are also starting to see empty store shelves and will see plenty more of those before this is all over.  In Japan, it is now impossible to buy facemasks or disinfectant alcohol unless you buy from profiteers.  A cut in medical supplies from China is going to increasingly affect the U.S. too.  This is just the crest of the wave.  The links below provide multiple examples of the world economy now grinding to a halt.

Erdogan
Another is we are hearing that Turkish President Recep Erdogan is going to be removed soon because of his neo-Ottoman expansionist plans.  “He will be removed very soon as he crossed the line that Putin put in place an FSB source explained.  He tried to run to the U.S. for help but he already burned that bridge.

Xi Jinping
Finally, Russian and Taiwanese sources both tell us Chinese President Xi Jinping has been killed and replaced by a body double.  That is why he recently vanished from public view for 12 days during the coronavirus outbreak.  However, we have not been able to confirm this with Chinese government sources.

ANOTHER SUSPICIOUS SUICIDE 
By Dr. Stephen Jones

Philip Haney, the author of “See Something, Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad,” has died at the age of 73. In addition to being an author, Haney was a long-time Department of Homeland Security expert with a focus on Islamic extremism.

Reports of Haney’s death first appeared on the morning of February 22. Fox News’ contributor Sara A. Carter tweeted regarding Haney’s death saying, “Somebody I deeply respected and considered a friend Phil Haney – a DHS whistleblower during the Obama Admin was apparently killed yesterday in Southern California. Pray for his family and pray they find the person who murdered him. Still trying to get confirmation on details.”

Philip Haney died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot, according to a statement issued Saturday afternoon by the Office the Sheriff-Coroner for Amador County, California that cautions the investigation is “active and ongoing”. No final determination has been made.

But it seems that this will be another major cover up.

Haney’s close friend Jan Markell, a radio host, author and speaker, tweeted out this from her last conversation with Phil Haney.

“My friend Phil Haney was found shot yesterday in CA. I had lunch with him a month ago. He warned something could happen to him. He was to get married in a month. It will be falsely called a suicide.”


The Effects Of Coronvirus On Chinese Christians And The Rest Of The World
While many of the people in China are frightened at the coronavirus, the Chinese Christians are showing their courage and faith in ways that are certain to change the entire landscape.


On February 11, the New York Times’ China correspondent Chris Buckley, who has been reporting on the ground in Wuhan since the lockdown and escalation of the outbreak, tweeted that despite the apocalyptic feel of a megacity in quarantine, he was surprised to encounter Christian evangelists handing out gospel leaflets packaged together with face masks….

A video which has generated 100,000 views on the Chinese social networking app WeChat shows that a group of Christians from Wuhan has been handing out masks and other protective gear their church received from donations across the world. Together with the masks, they slipped in the leaflets Mr. Buckley saw which quotes John 3:16 and calls for the salvation of souls.
A few days later, voice recordings and writings of the man behind the actions, a Wuhan-based missionary known as Preacher Luo, also started to circulate. In the recording, Luo stated that the street preaching and leaflet distribution has been happening for more than a decade. Not even the virus can stop them from preaching the Gospel, he declared, albeit with volunteers wearing protective gear.

Luo believes that now is an opportunity to demonstrate God’s love and the message of hope, as many Wuhan inhabitants suffer from trauma, despair and frustration….

One of the most widely shared videos calls for all Chinese Christians to engage in fasting and vigorous prayer for at least three days to seek divine intervention in the crisis….

As one of Wuhan’s largest house churches, despite all the repression and adversity it has faced since its founding, the Roots and Fruits Church has proved to be amazingly resilient.

Prior to the coronavirus crisis, it continued to grow and attract hundreds of professionals and families alike since its founding as a seven-member prayer group back in 2002.
Its organization contrasts with the chaos Wuhan saw in the early days of the outbreak, as the coronavirus paralysed the government and exposed the incompetence of the local authorities. Churches often delivered masks and protective gear accurately and efficiently in the early days of the outbreak, whilst the rest of China recoiled in horror as the government-sponsored Wuhan Red Cross failed to distribute much needed resources to the frontlines, leaving many medical staff exposed and frustrated….

Christians in Wuhan are living proof of the best qualities of humanity; they offer us a glimmer of hope in this world full of suffering and paranoia towards the epidemic. Their composure and efficiency, as well as their love and strength, stem from their faith.

The End of Babylonian Globalism
Soviet policy in the past century was to make all of their Socialist Republics interdependent upon each other economically. It was reasoned that this would bind them together and unify the diverse republics. So when the breakup came in the early 90’s, all of the newly independent republics had to scramble to become self-sufficient.

The Soviet model continued to be followed on a world-wide scale, known as globalism. Now with the coronavirus blooming, that model is collapsing rapidly. All the nations that have depended on China to supply them with pharmaceuticals, cleaners, gloves, and 60% of what Walmart sells, are suddenly finding their supplies cut off. I have read that the last ship from China to land at an American port will be on or about March 6.

There is little doubt that shortages will appear soon. Not only will China’s companies suffer, but so will America’s retailers. A gadget cannot be sold unless it has ALL of its parts, and if even one small part is built in China and cannot be shipped, the total product is useless.


Markets were still reeling yesterday following the turmoil on Monday due to fears over coronavirus, and we are not out of the woods, either in terms of the health crisis or as investors.

No one, not even the world's leading epidemiologists, knows how this is going to unravel.

What we do know is that coronavirus threatens the globalisation on which modern economies like the UK are predicated.

We take for granted that we live in a world where people, capital and goods can travel freely, though because of the inequalities and social tensions globalisation has created, it has come under serious challenge….

As the French finance minister Bruno Le Maire says, coronavirus is a 'game-changer' for globalisation. 

When bankruptcies reach a certain level, it will affect the banks. Only a finite number of banks can be bailed out, and when the first large bank is allowed to fail, it will trigger a cascade effect around the globe, because the banks are all tied together. Will governments be able to withstand the pressure? Will they print trillions of dollars to bail out the banks? We will see, but if they do, this too could be the start of hyperinflation, which is a different but related problem.

Donald Trump now has the legitimate right to say, “I told you so.” His policy of ending globalism and bringing back manufacturing to our country is paying off. Dozens of companies have relocated to American shores, and still more to countries other than China. Trump just completed a trip to India where he received an enormous welcome. He gave a speech in a huge stadium to 125,000 enthusiastic people.

This, I believe, signals companies to move their operations to India, if they do not want to move back to America. Trump does not want China and its brand of Communism and Socialism to set the example for the world in the 21st century, even as America set the example in the 20th century and Britain in the 19th century.

The problem is that corporations do not move their operations overnight. It takes years, so Trump’s plan has only just begun to be felt. We are still very much dependent upon China as our supplier of goods. But I believe that China’s Communist system is staring into the abyss and will soon lose all credibility with the world and with its own people.

Meanwhile, the Christians are taking the lead. In spite of persecution, they are coming out of hiding to provide the solution, while party members cower in fear. Let’s watch what happens.

The Gospel of John: Fire, Salvation, Judgment


THE GOSPEL OF JOHN, JESUS' FIRST SIGN, PART 8

By Dr. Stephen Jones:  Oct 16, 2019

Blog Post Date: 2-24-2020

Jesus was lifted up on the cross, not only as a sign of His death but also of His ascension and glorification (John 3:13). Later, on the night before He was to be crucified, His prayer equated His crucifixion with being glorified by His Father (John 17:5). Being lifted up on the cross was the ultimate way in which He manifested God’s name (John 17:6) to His disciples and the world as a whole.

If Jesus had been killed with a sword, or if He had been stoned, He would not have been “lifted up” in His death. The “ascension” theme would have been missing or lost. Neither would He have fulfilled His prophetic role as the serpent in the wilderness.

Yet because He was indeed lifted up and glorified in His death, He was able to save the world from the painful bite of the serpent that had brought death to all men. The incongruity between crucifixion and glorification is explained by the story of the fiery serpents in Numbers 21:6, where the term used is seraph nachash. The Hebrew word seraph is singular for seraphim. It literally means “to burn.”

The Burning Fire is His Glory, Not Hell
In Isaiah 6:1-3 the prophet saw seraphim around the throne of God, each having six wings. They were declaring, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.” These burning ones were manifestations of the glory of God. When Jesus was lifted up on the cross as the antidote to the fiery serpents in the wilderness, He was being manifested as a seraph and as nachash at the same time. He became sin for us, yet in so doing, He declared God’s fire and glory.

Another feature of this burning fire was that it fulfilled the principle of sacrifice, especially the burnt offerings in the law, which were burnt up entirely upon the altar. While some have misunderstood the law of sacrifice to mean that the penalty for sin is a burning hell, I see the fire as a manifestation of the glory of God in the seraphim.

If the fire were meant to teach us about an unending fiery judgment, then of necessity Jesus would still be in hell today to pay the penalty for sin. But instead, we find that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Death and hell are not the same thing, because “hell” is the grave and is translated correctly in the only passage in all of Paul’s writings where the word is used: “O death, where is thy sting? O grave [hades, or “hell”], where is thy victory” (1 Corinthians 15:55 KJV).

Paul was not a hellfire and brimstone preacher. Instead, he presented Christ as “the Lord of glory” in His crucifixion, and the spiritual “fire” seen in the seraphim. For example, 1 Corinthians 2:8 says,

8 the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

As for the “fire,” we find that the angels of God minister as “a flame of fire” (Hebrews 1:7). All of our works will be tried in the fire of His holy standard, and if they fall short of His glory, they will be burned up. 1 Corinthians 3:13 says,

13 each man’s work will become evident; for the day will show it, because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man’s work.

So when Jesus fulfilled the prophetic type of the seraph nachash (“fiery serpents”), He was lifted up on the cross not only to take upon Himself the penalty for man’s sin but also to manifest His love, His mercy, His heart, and His glory.

Salvation, Not Endless Punishment
John 3:16 continues this thought, saying,

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.

Putting this verse in context, we see that Christ was lifted up on the cross to die and to manifest the heart of God toward His creation, so that they may “have eternal life.” The next verse completes the thought, for we read in John 3:17,

17 For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him.

Christ did not abolish judgment, for that, in effect, would disrespect the law of God, which defines His holiness. Instead, He took upon Himself the full penalty of the law so that the world would not be lost. To use the previous metaphor, God did not tell Moses to put the bronze serpent on a cross to judge or condemn those who had sinned; the serpent was lifted up in the wilderness “that the world should be saved through Him.”

Such is the love of God. What seemed to apply mainly to the Israelites in Moses’ day had a greater application for the entire world in Christ’s fulfillment of this prophetic type. As we see in the time of Moses, many Israelites experienced the judgment of God in that they were bitten by the fiery serpents; yet that judgment was designed to motivate the people to look upon the serpent that was lifted up for all to see, thereby healing them.

Christ’s Irresistible Love
The universal application of this prophecy is seen more clearly later when Jesus again refers to the serpent in the wilderness. John 12:32, 33 says,

32 “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself.” 33 But He was saying this to indicate the kind of death by which He was to die.

In other words, being lifted up was not so much a matter of praising Him, as so many have interpreted it today, but was rather to show the manner of His death by crucifixion above the earth. It was to manifest the glory of the seraphim, the burning fire of God’s holiness, set above the earth as a flaming torch by which men might be drawn to the light.

The success of this plan is assured, for the result is that He would draw “all men” to Himself. The word “draw” is from the Greek word helko, “to drag.” The word does not mean “to woo” or “to entice,” as if the result were uncertain. This statement is actually a preview of the final result seen in the eighth sign in John 21:11,

11 Simon Peter went up and drew [helko] the net to land, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three, and although there were so many, the net was not torn.

When fish are caught in a net, they are dragged to the boat according to the will of the fisherman. The fishermen (or fishers of men) do not ask the fish for their opinion, for they fully intend to overrule the will of the fish. Hence, the 153 fish, representing the sons of God, are brought to Christ, as we read in John 1:13, not “of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”

The will of the fish is not abolished, but it is certainly overruled by a stronger will. So also, because Christ was indeed “lifted up” on the cross, He will drag all men to Himself. He does not abolish their human will, but He certainly overrules the will of all flesh and all men in the end. This ensures success in His plan to save “the world” and “all men.”

Paul tells us that “love never fails” (1 Corinthians 13:8). Imperfect love fails to achieve full success, but the love of God never fails. In the end, He will drag all men to Himself at the Great White Throne. He will summon all who have ever lived to appear before Him, and when He manifests His love and His glory, every knee will bow and every tongue will profess Him as Lord (Philippians 2:10, 11).

In other words, all will experience His irresistible and unfailing love. and all will then know the truth. As Spirit-filled believers, they will then enter a time of judgment wherein the baptism of fire works within their hearts to cleanse and purify them of the “chaff” (flesh) that John the Baptist talked about in Matthew 3:11, 12. This is the “river of fire” in Daniel 7:10 as those resurrected from the dead are judged by God’s verdict, based on the standard of His own holiness seen in the seraphim. When His sentence, the river of fire, has been issued, it forms the “lake of fire” in Revelation 20:14, 15, for it is the outworking of the divine sentence over a period of time.

To become a believer is only the first step toward full salvation. It is a salvation on a Passover level. To be Spirit-filled is salvation on a Pentecostal level, and this is what takes time to bring men to spiritual maturity. So also those who bow their knees and profess Christ will not receive immortality until they have grown to maturity in that final Age. That Age will end with the Creation Jubilee, where any remaining debt to sin will be cancelled by grace alone, and all men will finally return to their lost inheritance.

But the final Jubilee is yet a long way off. Meanwhile, there is indeed judgment through God’s “fiery law” (Deuteronomy 33:2 KJV). Judgment is the process by which God drags all men to Himself. The “fish” do not like it at all, for it causes them fear, but the love of God continues to drag them to Christ in spite of their opposition.

The Judgment
John 3:18 says,

18 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

This is why we ought to believe in Christ now, rather than waiting for the Great White Throne. Those who believe in this lifetime may avoid the judgment altogether. Those who do not believe, who do not claim the death of Jesus Christ as payment for their own sin, are responsible and liable to pay for their own sin. In other words, “he who does not believe has been judged already.” These carry the liability for Adam’s sin, which is why they are born mortal; and they are also liable for their own sin.

John 3:19-21 continues by defining the reason for this judgment:

19 This is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone who does evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who practices the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God.

In the end, the love of God will save all men and drag them to Himself. Meanwhile, however, the will of man opposes the love of God for as long as it can withstand His irresistible love. Jesus said that their motivation is that their deeds are evil, so they do not want those deeds to be exposed by the light of truth. Hence, they prefer darkness. The “fish” try to avoid the net for as long as they are able.

But those who love truth are drawn to the light. This too is a fishing metaphor. The disciples often fished at night (Luke 5:5), using a lamp to attract the fish to the boat. In John 21:3, 4, the disciples caught nothing all night, but as the day dawned, Jesus told them to cast their nets on the right side of the boat. Then they caught 153 large fish.
Such night fishing provided the metaphor of men who are drawn by the light of truth, men who do not love darkness, men who know that their deeds are “wrought in God.” These are the sons of God, represented by the 153 fish.

Jesus’ teachings in John 3 (in connection to the story of Nicodemus) are explanations of the first sign that Jesus did to manifest the glory of God. It is all about the manner in which the sons of God are transformed into the image of Christ. They are transformed from water to wine. These sons of God are those who, even now, are attracted to the light of truth. They no longer avoid the net but willingly come to the disciples in the boat who are shining the light of Christ across the sea of humanity.

These sons of God will not be judged. They are the first fruits of creation (James 1:18), for we know that all of creation is awaiting the manifestation of the sons of God (Romans 8:19). The first fruits always sanctify the whole harvest, and when creation as a whole sees the first fruits presented to God, it rejoices, because this is the signal to begin the greater harvest of saving the whole world.
