VIDEO: Systemic Usury: the Global Monetary System

I don't think it can be overstated just how important these concepts and realities are for we the serfs to understand. After watching this video, you'll better understand why usury was FORBIDDEN in the Torah (Exodus 22:25-27; Leviticus 25:35-37; Deuteronomy 23:19,20; Nehemiah 5:10,11; Psalm 15:5; Ezekiel 18:13,17)! Just one more proof that the TORAH was/is LIGHT to the NATIONS!

Watch this and pass it around!

Max Kieser interviews Damon Vrabel of CSPER.org.

Now...  Dr. Michael Hudson explains to Max Keiser how the Pentagon 'accidentally' pulled off the biggest heist in history. In my mind, this is how Daughter Babylon pays for her Empire! Still amazed that Dr. Hudson wrote his book in '72.

VIDEO: Christian or Nazarene? | Nazarene Israel: the original faith of the apostles

If I had to categorize myself with one word, Nazarene (or Netzarene) would probably be it. If I could use two words, it would be "Netzarene Joe". Here is a great short video by Norman Willis of NazareneIsrael.org on the differences between the terms "Christian" and "Nazarene". - Hanok

Historic Worldwide Earthquakes on the rise

Updated July 26th, 2010. Originally posted January 3rd, 2009.

Of course, the global human population is growing exponentially, thus the impact on mankind is more easily felt by earthquakes. Not to mention, our ability to record earthquakes has significantly improved in recent decades. Yet, the frequency in "Great" earthquakes has dramatically increased in the last decade compared to previous, recent decades... and that reality should catch the watchful eye of End-Time prophecy students.

Luke 21:10-11
10 Then He continued by saying to them, "Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom,
11 and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

VIDEO: Pronouncing the Messiah’s Name

The following presentation is by Norman Willis of NazareIsrael.org. He and I may not share the exact pronunciation of the Messiah's name, but we do agree that His bearing of the Father's Name (YHVH) has very little to do with the way we pronounce or transliterate the Messiah's name in English. Enjoy! -Hanok

Here comes the Sun

Yesterday, I received the following email from my friend Craig Peters of IAH. All the scoffing and ridicule directed at Climate Change people (because of the cool-down experienced in the last year or two), may soon be rebuffed... but I wonder how many of the Climatologists will continue to ignore the impact of the Sun. By the way, check out the documentary 2012: An Awakening. - Hanok

We have seen in other news stories that, with such a deep solar minimum, scientists are expecting the Sun to reemerge with an unprecedented solar maximum. There is more on the story:

http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2010/16jul_ilws/

While the Sun is an agent of blessing (Matthew 5:45), as it was with Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:23-25), it will certainly become an agent of wrath in the Time of the End (Job 38:12-13/Psalm 11:6, 19:4-6, Revelation 16:8-9).

Whether or not the next solar maximum will be part of that wrath remains to be seen. No pun intended, but if nothing else, it is suspected that this may well be a serious warm-up.

So we must continue to watch and pray, that we will be found abiding in Him—both now and at that time (whenever
it is).

VIDEO: From Darwin to Hitler – Does Darwinism devalue human life?

14Jul/100

Thoughts on the influence of Luther and Darwin on Hitler’s worldview

“If I had to baptize a Jew, I would take him to the bridge of the Elbe, hang a stone around his neck and push him over with the words 'I baptize thee in the name of Abraham'” - Martin Luther

"Since Martin Luther closed his eyes, no such son of our people has appeared again. It has been decided that we shall be the first to witness his reappearance ... I think the time is past when one may not say the names of Hitler and Luther in the same breath. They belong together; they are of the same old stamp" - Hitler's Education Minister, Bernhard Rust

"The connection between Hitler and Darwinism is of course historically a difficult connection because they were separated by a good many years. One was English. One was German. None the less, if you open Mein Kampf and read it, especially if you can read it in German, the correspondence between Darwinian ideas and Nazi ideas just leaps from the page. Of course you have to add every Historical caution. Not everyone who read Darwin became a Nazi. Obviously not... no one is making that case. Darwinisms is not a sufficient condition for a phenomenon like Nazism, but I think it is certainly a necessary one." - David Berlinski in EXPELLED: No Intelligence Allowed

Luther and Darwin are probably the most notable contributors to Hitler's worldview... in my opinion (but of course there were others). Indeed many synergistic variables were brewing in the German population for hundreds of years before Hitler... and they all contributed to the Christian-apathy and justification for what Hitler did right under their noses when times became difficult.

I think many of us are aware (or should be aware) that dozens of attempts were made (by Germans) to overthrow the Nazi regime. That is a fact that does NOT negate the reality that thousands of German "Christian" soldiers and civilians looked-on and helped with the round up of Jews for deportation and dehumanization.

Note: I'm not Jewish (in the Jew-dah sense) and I have many German ancestors. Also understand that I believe the non-Jewish population of Germany was/is of the stock of Ephraim (i.e., Israelites).

A man like Hitler does NOT come to power in a vacuum... especially not within a highly-advanced and highly-civil nation like Germany.

But of course... NOT all German "Lutherans" were anti-Jew... and in the same way... NOT all German Darwinian scientists wanted to unnaturally select-away the Jews from the German population. However, many of Hitler's scientists imbibed the idea that Jews were less evolved and dangerous to the German and European population... and this was a major justification for their violent removal. Note: Assuming Darwin did not have an impact on Germany and Hitler simply because Darwin spoke English ... is delusional. The unification of Darwinism with the later rhetoric of Luther... was a recipe of great opportunity for the Nazis.

The following link may be more helpful in the Luther-Hitler connections in particular (not all agree with the connections of course):  The use of Martin Luther by the Nazis

I've spent many hours watching WWII and Holocaust documentaries... and I'm always pondering why and how... how could such an atrocity have happened to the Jews and to Germany? ...and usually... I wonder... how could the Father have allowed such heinous suffering to transpire as long as it did... including the atrocities in Russia, China, Cambodia, etc... where millions upon millions of young and old were murdered?

These are difficult questions... and I'm certainly not one to only ask questions that I think I can answer... nor do I assume that I have the capacity to understand the Ways and Reasons of the Creator of the Universe... however... it doesn't mean I'm afraid to ask out of fear that my Faith will be hurt.... for I do believe the Father has been merciful and suffers us (and suffers with us) more than most of us know.

VIDEO: Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed (Full Documentary)

Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed is a 2008 independent documentary film, directed by Nathan Frankowski and hosted by Ben Stein. The film contends that the mainstream science establishment suppresses academics who believe they see evidence of intelligent design in nature and who criticize evidence supporting evolution and the modern evolutionary synthesis as a mainstream conspiracy to keep God out of science laboratories and classrooms. The scientific theory of evolution is portrayed by the film as contributing to fascism, the Nazi Holocaust, communism, atheism, abortion, and eugenics.

Yeshua, Yehoshua, or Yahshua?

Soooo... yesterday I was accused of being a "teacher lacking discernment" because I don't write or say Yeshua's name as "Yahshua". Honestly, I was more intrigued by this person's reasoning than I was offended by the conclusion that I'm lacking discernment.

By the way, I willingly joined the LDA group a long time ago (LDA=Lacking-Discernment-Anonymous).

If I'm following this reasoning correctly, since I don't write or say "YAH-shua", I'm in essence removing the Father from Messiah's name... thus I'm violating some commandment or paradigm that forbids I do this. Basically, it is as if the spelling of "Yahshua" is a litmus test... to determine whether or not I really have discernment and whether or not I'm a true follower of "Yahshua". Am I understanding this correctly?

The Verse (typically whipped out like a barbed-wire of Truth):

John 5:43 "I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

My question is this: Joshua had the same name as Yeshua/Jesus (the best evidence is that they were both called "Yehoshua" in Hebrew... in the long-form). Now... did Joshua also come in "the name of the Father"... since his name was the same as the written Hebrew name that Messiah came in?

Joshua's name and many other Hebrew individuals had part of the Great NAME of YHVH in their names... for example:

Hebrew Anglicized Hebrew Anglicized
YeHo-shua Joshua(*Jesus) Yesha-YaHu Isaiah
YeHo-hanan John Eli-YaHu Elijah
YeHo-shaphat Jehoshaphat Yermi-YaHu Jeremiah
YeHo-zabad Jozabad Tsidqi-YaHu Zedekiah
YeHo-ash Jehoash Athal-YaHu Athaliah
YeHo-achaz Jehoachaz Hizqi-YaHu Hezekiah
YeHo-iakim Jehoiakim Yoshi-YaHu Josiah
YeHo-nadab Jehonadab
YeHo-ram Joram Hebrew Anglicized
YeHo-seph Joseph Miyke-YeHu Micah
YeHo-tsadaq Jehozadak

*The name "Jesus" isn't truly an Anglicized form of Yehoshua, but Joshua certainly is.

Did all of those men come in the Father's Name the SAME way Yeshua came in the Father's Name (as depicted in John 5:43)? I dare say... there was something different about YeHo-shua... which went beyond just the way we spell, perceive, and/or pronounce His name.

The Father is still in Yeshua... no matter if I or you or anyone else spells His name Yeshua, Yehoshua, or Yahshua. He knows and the enemy knows who we are talking about.

Please think more critically and put away the barbed-wire!
Hanok ben-Isaak

P.S. By the way, I'm not upset or offended... just occasionally perplexed and confounded... not-to-mention, humored. However, this is just one example of how difficult it is to exist and fellowship within the Hebraic-roots community. Anyone else looking forward to the arrival of Eliyahu? Phew! =)

VIDEO: “Obama Most Radical US President ever”, says prestigious Harvard Phd

Dr. Richard L. Rubinstein, author of "Jihad and Genocide", Harvard Phd, Yale fellow, "Distinguished Professor of the Year", and Harvard Phd, states that president Obama's intention is to "correct the historical mistake of the creation of the state of Israel." Dr. Rubenstein states that president Obama due to his family heritage is extremely pro Muslim - to the point of "wanting to see the destruction of Israel."


Now watch the most recent encounter of the Jewish prince (Bibi) of the semi-autonomous protectorate of Jew-dah and the counterfeit puppet-king of Daughter Babylon (BHO). If Obama had been meeting with the house of Saud, something tells me we would have seen alot more teeth and bowing.


Wouldn't video conferencing have been cheaper and safer? ...unless a "Dog and Pony show" was the primary pursuit.

AUDIO: The Fullness of the Nations | Genesis 48:19 | Truth2U

Had the pleasure of joining Jono on TRUTH2U radio a couple more times... and we discussed Ephraim, genetics, and what it means to be "the Fullness of the Nations" (Genesis 48:19).

Play Audio Part 1 (7/4/2010)

Play Audio Part 2 (7/11/2010)

Here are some of the verses I alluded to during the broadcast:

Revelation 3:10 - Because you have guarded My Word of endurance, I also shall keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth.

Zephaniah 2:3 - Seek YHVH, all you meek ones of the earth, who have done His right-ruling. Seek righteousness, seek meekness, if so be that you are hidden in the day of wrath of YHVH.

Isaiah 10:22 - For although your people, O Israel, may be like the sand of the sea,
Only a remnant within them will return; A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness."

If anyone cares to see the secular quotes I read and a simple exponential growth equation, those can be seen here: The Mystery of the Gentiles (Goyim).

Also, here is a slightly out-dated yHaplogroup migration map that can help people visualize the movements of various populations that I referred to during the broadcast. Pay particular attention to F, K, and the many sub-haplogroups.

AUDIO: Gulf Oil Spill, Giants, and Mystery Babylon | Steve Quayle on Coast to Coast

From this I found out that Steve Quayle agrees with the "America is Mystery Babylon" paradigm. The reason I generally appreciate Quayle more than many other guys out there... is because he focuses MUCH on repentance as the solution to most of our current ills (associated with the Globalist agenda). I'm certain he would agree that the plans of the Globalists are not going to fail simply by EXPOSING the plans. However, I'm not yet sure if Steve understands that repentance means a return to Torah... but many Christian fundamentalists are pro-Torah on many levels without realizing they are.

VIDEO: Hebrew Insights into the Lord’s Prayer | Nehemia Gordon

Karaite scholar Nehemia Gordon joins Christine Darg to explore some extraordinary insights into the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13) that he and Keith Johnson have written about in their new book A Prayer to our Father. Gordon examines this well-known Christian-connected prayer and suggests that its Hebrew origins would make it perfectly acceptable for any Jew... from any denomination... to pray.

Nehemia also shares a miraculous event he recently witnessed during a tour in South Africa.

VIDEO: Widespread theme of 3rd Day Resurrection in the Tanakh | Tony Robinson


This is another two hour long interview of Tony Robinson (Restoration of Torah Ministries) by God's Learning Channel, recorded on 6-21-2010. Source: WayToZion.org

Audio Only Version (.mp3)

In this program, Tony discusses:

  • The idea or concept of resurrection on day 3 is not a concept foreign to the Torah and Tanakh, but instead there are many thematic connections throughout.
  • The number 3 is often associated with Life, Death, and Resurrection.
  • Tovia Singer only wants to focus on the p'shat level of Scripture interpretation when discussing the resurrection of Yeshua on Day 3, dismissing the Remez, D'rash, and Sod levels even in spite of the Rabbinic use of these textual interpretations.
  • Some of many passages referenced: Genesis 1:11-13, 1 Kings 17:21-22, Hosea 6:1-2, Jeremiah 38:1-28, Genesis 42:18, 1 Kings 3:16-18, Romans 4:18-20, Genesis 18:1-19:1, Numbers 19:1-13, 1 Samuel 30:1,12, Esther 4:11, Jonah 1:17
