WHO WAS THE SON OF MAN?

Acts: 24:14-15: However, I Admit That I Worship The Elahh Of Our Fathers, As A Follower Of The Way, Which They Call A Sect. I Believe Everything That Agrees With The Law And That Is Written In The Prophets, And I Have The Same Hope In JAH As These Men, That There Will Be A Resurrection Of Both The Righteous And The Wicked.


As we learn in the last Bible study, the Bible clearly demonstrates (Job 14:10-15) that the dead know nothing, and their body decay’s in the grave. It’s only scriptures that have been misinterpreted that are now being used to convince people of an afterlife in heaven. We were shown that all the righteous servants of JAH are not in heaven, and that they too are still in their graves awaiting the time of the resurrection. They will all be awaken at the last trumpet and by the voice of the Savior at his return.

Mtt. 24:30-31: “At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens (Strong’s Gr. # 3772, heavens = air, heavenly, sky) to the other.

They will awaken with a new body, a body of spirit and everlasting life! They will reign on the earth in the kingdom as kings and priests with the Savior for a thousand years, and for all eternity. “This is the first resurrection. Blessed and Holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The Second Death Has No Power Over Them... Rev. 20:5-6.

THE SEVENTH BASIC DOCTRINE: ETERNAL JUDGMENT

If there is a second death coming for mankind, then by necessity, there most also have been a first death! If this were true; then mankind will be given another chance at life. It is these events that lead to this second death that is just simply not understood today. We now, however, have the sequence in order; all we have to do is to put the final few pieces in place. Let’s have a quick review: The Angels sinned. Mankind was made of matter so they could be permanently destroyed. A humanly priesthood was patterned after the heavenly priesthood that was cursed, thereby eventually making the whole nation cursed. The Creators would, however, call their elect out of this curse nation from the family of this one man who was righteous – Abraham. The rest of this nation, and all mankind would continue to live their lives under the influence of the cursed covenant. A Savior would come into the world to be released from the old cursed (Marriage) covenant and establish a new (Marriage) covenant for the elect (firstfruits). These firstfruits will become the Bride, to be, of the “New Covenant” at his return to the earth, and they will rule on the earth with the Savior who is King of kings and Lord of lords.

At the Savior’s return, he will come back to forcefully take back rulership of the earth from the present world ruler (Satan) and the governments and religions this corrupt spiritual being has established on the earth.

Isa. 13:9-14: See, the day of the Eternal is coming – a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger – to make the land desolate and destroy the sinners within it. The stars of heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light. I will punish the world for its evil, the wicked for their sins. I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty and will humble the pride of the ruthless. I will make man scarcer than pure gold, more rare than the gold of Ophir. Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will shake from its place at the wrath of the Eternal Almighty, in the day of his burning anger. Like hunted antelope, like sheep without a shepherd, each will return to his own people, each will flee to his native land.

These people that survive the Great Tribulation will still be on the earth at the return of the Savior. Those of our people who are alive, will still be scattered all around the world, and they will be allowed to return back to our home land of Africa, and, as stated above, the rest of the remaining peoples from all the other nations on earth, will also return to there own native land as well.

Eze. 36:22-32: Therefore say to the house of Nubia, ‘This is what the Sovereign Eternal Elahh says: It is not for your sake, O house of Nubia, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name,” which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the Eternal, declares the Sovereign Eternal, when I show myself holy through you before their eyes. “’For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. You will live in the land I gave your forefathers; you will be my people, and I will be your Elahh. I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and make it plentiful and will not bring famine upon you. I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine. Then you will remember your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your sins and detestable practices. I want you to know that I am not doing this for your sake, declares the Sovereign Eternal. Be ashamed and disgraced for your conduct, O house of Nubia!

It is at this point: The next event in the sequence of events that lead up to the second death that all those who have tried to understand this truth, have become confuse: Therefore, this subject has never been correctly explained. I, myself, who was a product of the teachings of my former church, did not originally understand this subject correctly either. Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong, who was the founder of the church that I was a member for nearly twenty years; in trying to make sense out of this very complicated subject; he would eventually come to believe, and teach, that there was really three resurrections: The resurrection that occurs at the return of the Savior; The resurrection of those who would live and die during the time of the kingdom, and finally; The resurrection of those who would be judge on Judgment Day. This would mean, by necessity, that those who were resurrected, lived, and died during the time of kingdom would actually have experienced their first resurrection – which technically, would be their second resurrection – and their second dearth. So then on Judgment Day, these very same people would once again be resurrected – this would now be a third resurrection – in order to be judged.

Is this really what the Bible teaches on the subject of the resurrection? Does the Bible state that there are two resurrections, but secretly reveals there are really three resurrections? It is vital to our salvation that we correctly understand this subject. If we don’t understand what is the actual plan of salvation, then aren’t we just as lost as those who are expecting to float off to heaven upon their death? So, lets make sure we have this right, so we can be among those who will be in the first resurrection. It was something the Savior said that made me think that the understanding of the second dearth was not correct:

Mtt. 19:28-30: The Savior said to them, “I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Nubia. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.

What does that mean? What does the first will be last, and the last will be first mean! It has never been clear to anyone, as far as I know, just what is the meaning of these words spoken by our Savior. And because no one truly understood what the Savior was conveying with these words, the second death has never been understood. When these words are carefully examined, it becomes clear that the Savior is actually making two distinctions between his followers. Here the Savior is actually responding to a question asked by his disciple – Peter! So, he first let Peter know what is the reward of those who are to be chosen from the nation of Nubia as its leaders. Again, this is the elect, who are the firstfruits and the Bride of the Savior. To this group, which Peter and the other disciples were apart, he says they will be given thrones and will judge over the nation of Nubia.

Rev. 20:4-6: I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for the Savior and because of the word of JAH. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with the Savior a thousand years. (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second dearth has no power over them, but they will be priests of JAH and of the Savior and will reign with him for a thousands years.

Now, are you beginning to see? Now, is it beginning to make sense? You now know, from previous bible studies, what the mark of the beast is, and how it came on the earth. Most of mankind today follows the religions that carry this mark. We are told to come out of this great religion and her many daughters, so we will not share in its plagues (Rev.18: 4-8). Those that are called to a leadership position from the nation of Nubia are going to be the firstfruits. These individuals who had already endured and overcame the temptations of this world will now rule with the Savior for, according to the book of Enoch, not just the one thousand years that is now mentioned in the Bible we have today, which was translated by the Europeans. In the Bible the Europeans have translated for the rest of the world, much of the events in the Bible had to be condensed in order for these stories of the Bible to fit into the timeframe the Europeans wanted to convey to the rest of the mankind. If it had not been for the fact that the book of Enoch has survived over these many years; the true sequence of events leading up to the second death may have never been understood. Primarily because, in the Bible we have today, there are events in chapter twenty and in chapter twenty-one of Revelation that read as if they are describing one continuous event; When, in actually, they are describing events that take place thousands of years apart from each other. This is the reason the second death and the Judgment has never been correctly understood.

Most of you are aware, by now, the book of Enoch describes what he calls, “The Apocalypse of Weeks,” which we discussed in the letter series, “Letters To The Black Man And Woman.” In these weeks, Enoch is describing, each week represents seven thousands years. The first seven weeks or forty-nine thousands years describes the amount of time given to mankind to rule on the earth. Enoch, in his description of these weeks, goes on to describe an additional three weeks, and because the Bible we have today does not make any distinctions between these weeks in the book of Revelation; the second death and Judgment has been completely misunderstood. According to the writings of Enoch, who describes these events as the “The Three Parables,” the Savior returns to this earth to usher in the eight week of seven thousands years. The Savior will return to an earth that has more people living on it then at any time throughout its history. It is in the last portion of man’s history on the earth that we will see the largest population growth: As it stands today, the world’s population is nearly seven billion people. The vast majority of these people living on the earth today will not survive the coming Great Tribulation.

Isa. 34:1-10: Come near you nations, and listen; pay attention, you peoples! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, the world, and all that comes out of it! The Eternal is angry with all nations; his wrath is upon all their armies. He will totally destroy them; he will give them over to slaughter. Their slain will be thrown out, their dead bodies will send up a stench; the mountains will be soaked with their blood. All the stars of the heavens will be dissolved and the sky rolled up like a scroll; all the starry host will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like shriveled figs from the fig tree. My sword has drunk its fill in the heavens; see, it descends on judgment on Edom, the people I have totally destroyed...For the Eternal has a day of vengeance, a year of retribution, to uphold Zion’s cause. Edom’s streams will be turned into pitch, her dust into burning sulfur; her land will become blazing pitch! It will not be quenched night and day; its smoke will rise forever. From generation to generation it will lie desolate; no one will ever pass through it again.

This is the earth that those who survive the Great Tribulation will inherit, and it won’t be a pretty place to live. The world’s population is estimated to cross the seven billion mark by 2012. If there are to be at least seven billion people living on the earth at the return of the Savior and if ten percent of these people managed to survive: There would only be seven hundred million people left on the earth. What if only one percent of the world’s population at that time is left? Then, the soon to occur Great Tribulation, will be a near “Extinction Level Event” for mankind; with there being only seventy million survivors left on the earth. This is what the very near future, according to the Bible, will hold for the survivors of mankind. But first, lets make sure we have all the people correctly identified and properly arranged so we can understand the truth of these events as they are described in the chapters already mentioned in the Book of Revelation.
