Scripture speaks of a secret place where we can simply go, be alone,

be protected, pray,

and hear from

ב

YâHuWsHúa.

Knowing there is such a place is a matter of faith. Going back time

and again, that's a matter of building a relationship. You need not

have an advanced degree in any subject, need not have memorized

Scripture from beginning to end, but instead

be aware the

Of Y’Ishra’al

Has a place for each Jew and Gentile who will open their minds and

hearts to Him.

Mt 6:5-8

When you pray, you shall not be as the role-fakers, for they love to

stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets,

that they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have

received their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner

chamber, and having shut your door, pray to your Father Who is in

secret, and your Father Who sees in secret shall reward you openly.

In praying, don’t use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they

think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Therefore

don’t be like them, don't you see that your Father knows what things

you need before you ask Him.

The truth in reality is visited in this secret place AND must be

shared by those who will live or else ... they will perish ... in darkness.

It is written

Lu 11:33

“No one, when he has lit a Lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket,

but on a stand, that those who come in may see the Light.

Tehillim. 119:105

Your Word is a Lamp to my feet, and a Light (aur) for my path.

The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole

body is also full of Light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of

darkness. Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t

darkness. If therefore your whole body is full of Light, having no

part dark, it shall be wholly full of Light, as when the Lamp with its

bright shining gives you Light.”

With this in mind, heart soul and strength let us study together in

the Raukh

And now brothers and sisters

Come out of the secret place bearing light!

Who see it from afar? The Secret Place, here, shines a bit of light

so many can see from afar. The topics we have chosen are addressed

Dan_7:25

And it shall speak words

opposing the Most High, and it will wear down the pure ones of the

Most High Ones, and it will try to change set times (Festivals) and

Law, (Lawlessness) and they shall be granted into its hand for a time

and times and half of a time.

And then I will profess to them,

‘Never did I acknowledge you: even if you are on My lap and do not do

the will of My Father Who is in heaven, out of My lap will I cast you

away! Depart from Me, all ye workers of Lawlessness!’

So that in them is fulfilled the prediction of Yshá`Yâhuw, which

says: “You shall surely hear, but you shall not understand; and you

shall surely see, but you shall not perceive! For the heart of this

people has grown thick, and they do hardly hear with the ears, and

they have shut their eyes, lest they should see with their eyes, and

with their ears they should hear, and their heart should understand,

and they should return to Me and I should cure them.

The Hebrew Bible is fully aware of that. Deuteronomy declares the

worship of sun, moon,

and stars as allotted by

that is to all the other peoples

Dev 4:19.

And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto Shomayim, and when thou seest

the

Shemesh, and the yarei'ach, and the kokhavim, even all the tz’va

HaShomayim, shouldest be driven to hishtachaveh (bow down,

worship) them, and serve them which Hashem Aloheicha hath divided

unto kol HaGoyim under kol HaShomayim.

Duet 4:19

"or lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens and see the sun, the

moon, the stars, and all the armies of heaven, you should be

impelled to bow down to them or enslave yourselves to these

[things] that

has apportioned to all the nations under the whole heaven;

There is no “hard copy” of Him! People want something they can

identify with, which is what makes the “god-man” concept so

attractive, because it makes them think they can be gods too. We

can only understand what

Allows us to know about Himself, and we cannot control what we

cannot comprehend. Apportioned: divided, assigned, distributed;

Aramaic, "designated to serve". I.e., He gave them to all the nations

and they are common (contrast v. 20).

But none of them is to be identified specifically with

Dev 4:20

But Hashem hath taken you, and brought you forth

Out of the iron furnace, even out of Mitzrayim, to be unto Him an

Am Nachalah (a people of inheritance), as ye are yom hazeh.

"But

has selected you, and brought you out from the crucible of iron--from Egypt--to become His own--for the purpose of being a people [that are His own] prized

possession, just as [is the case] today."

Any wood placed into a furnace for smelting iron would be

consumed immediately. Egypt completely used them up, while feeding

them—like pack animals. Even the products forged of iron there—

chariots—were used to kill them. Now they were going to a place

that would serve them rather than consuming them. Nothing in the

Tabernacle was made of iron;

Had no use for it at this point. Prized possession: How awesome!

Why throw away such a rare privilege and settle for something that

the nations all stoop to--nations that He considered a mere drop in

the bucket in comparison

Yeshayah40:15?

Surely the Goyim are like a drop in a bucket, and are accounted as

dust of the scales; surely He taketh up the iyim (islands) like fine

dust.

Isa 40:15

See, nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are reckoned as dust on

the balance. See, He lifts up isles as fine dust.

The Damascus prophecy

The prophecy of Damascus is nigh

The burden of Dammâ´seq:

(Pope, Anti Meshiakh, False Prophet and the Beast)

(Syria and the Isis will bring carnage and atrocities to the people,

and their fore will suffer more than most cities

“Look! Damméseq is to quit being a city,

(This prophecy about to be fulfilled)

and she will become a heap of ruins. The cities of the Ruins

(`Aro`ë´r) are being abandoned, they shall be for the flocks, and

they will lie down outstretched and there will be no one to make

them anxious. And the fortifications will cease from ’Ephráyim

and the kingship from Damméseq, and the remnant of ’Arâ´m,

they shall be like the honor of the sons of Y’Ishra’al, Declares

YHWH of hosts.

It speaks of the Jews, who occupy the land of Y’Ishra’al becoming

involved in the times called the beginning of the end, and could

be a limited nuclear war, that will force the EU to intervene with

a so called peace keeping force that the UN will begin to bring into

force HaSatan government on this earth

“And it shall be in that day, the weightiness of Ya`aqóv shall

be brought low and the fatness of his flesh, it will be made lean;

And it shall be like a harvester gathering standing grain, and his

sowing arm reaps the heads of grain, and it shall be like one

gleaning the heads of grain in the valley of the giants (Rphâ’íym)!

Yet gleanings shall be left alive in it, like a beating of an olive tree

– two, three olive berries at the top of the uppermost bough, four,

five on her most fruitful branches,”

Declares YHWH,

The mighty Ones of Y’Ishra’al.

Understanding the term "The Mark of the Beast" comes from the

N.C. in Disclosure 13:17, 18.

Disclosure 13:17.

In order that no one should be able to buy or trade unless he has the

mark, or the name of the Beast, or the number of its name.

Disclosure 13:18

Here is wisdom: he, who possesses the understanding, let him

calculate the number of the Beast; for it is the number of a son of

’Âthâ´m: and its number is six hundred sixty-six .

The number 616 is the number and not the Mark of the Beast. We

are told to count or compute the number of the Beast.

The oldest record we have of Disclosure 13:17,18 is in the Chester

Beatty Biblical Papyri P47 dated the 3rd Century CE in which, the

number 616 is written in Greek as three Greek letters Chi, Xi,

Sigma with a single line across the top of these three letters.

Reading from left to right, the first Greek letter, χ (pronounced

“chi”) has a numerical value of 600.

The middle Greek letter, ξ, is pronounced “xi”, and it has a numerical

value of 60.

The third Greek letter, ς, is pronounced “stigma”. Although its

numerical value has changed since the first century, back in the first

century, the stigma had a numerical value of 6. We might also note

that the stigma has a literal meaning of “scar, mark, or badge of

service”.

(“In the name of Allah” = Bismillah = 616)

In this particular N.C Greek manuscript, the line across the top of

these three letters means that these three letters together stand

for a word, a name, or a number. In later Greek manuscripts this

disappears completely and is replaced with the number "616" written

out in full as three full words as "six hundred, sixty and six".

1 Yâhuwchânâ´n 2:22

Who is the liar, if not he who is denying that Yâhuwshúa` is the

Anointed One? And this one is an anointed falsifier, he who is

denying the Father and the Son.

Islam teaches that there is no god but Allah, Allah has no son and

is not a father. The belief that God has no Son is encoded in the

Koran in several places. It is embossed inside the Dome of the Rock

in two foot high Arabic letters.

This will be the starting point of the beginning

of the end of ISIS

The black and white standard of the Sunni militants gives some

insight into how the group sees itself The world is now becoming

accustomed to seeing images of the stark black-and-white flag

whose bearers are threatening to remake the Middle East and

who have already taken responsibility for numerous acts of

murder, massacres and ethnic cleansing across Iraq and Syria.

But what does the standard of the self-declared Islamic State–also

known by its previous name, ISIS, or the Islamic State in Iraq and

greater Syria–tell observers about the goals of the organization

and its supporters?

Volumes, say experts in Islamic militant movements. The color,

the calligraphy, and the choice of words on the flag all serve as a

key to reading the group’s history as well as unfolding a road map

of where it sees itself going.

The flag is black with the words

La ‘ilaha ‘illa-llah

meaning

Night

(darkness)

(“Bismillah”)

“There is no God but God” –

The phrase is the key that provides a test that identifies the

correct version of the Koran as it was revealed to Muhammed in

the year 610 A.D. by the “Lord of the Universe.” The test is

performed using gemetria – a numerical coding system common

in the ancient world by which letters are assigned numerical

values. The Bismillah converts to certain mathematical values

that can be compared to gematrical values in the Koran as a

whole.

The Bismillah can therefore be thought of as the mark, or

number, that unlocks or decodes the true Koran. The gematrical

value of the correct version of the Koran is 616, and it is that

which frees mankind. The article concludes by saying that the

Christian doctrine relating 616 to the antichrist is a deception

designed to keep man in bondage. So the Bismillah is the mark of

the Koran, and its numeric value is 616.

The antagonism between the two religions is further unfolded by

their respective views on the nature of YHWH and of YaHuWsHua

HaMeshiakh.

The Koran teaches that the Christian understanding of Christ is

the antichrist; while Christianity teaches that the Muslim

understanding of Allah is of the antichrist.

Which one is truth

Emblazoned

Across the top in white in a somewhat coarse, handwritten

Arabic script. It’s a very different kind of typeface from the more

elaborate calligraphy on the Saudi flag, for example, that also

includes this same shahada, or Islamic statement of faith. Even

more rough around the edges is the white circle in the middle of

the ISIS flag. Inside it are three words:

“God Messenger Mohammed.”

It’s an interesting choice of word order given that the second part

of the shahada is

“and Mohammed is God’s messenger.”

The reason for the circle and those words is that they’re a copy of

what’s known as the Seal of Mohammed, which the prophet

himself is believed to have used in his lifetime to seal letters he

wrote to foreign leaders, asking them to join him. A version of the

seal purported to belong to Othman, one of Mohammed’s

companions, is now permanently on display at the Okapi Palace

in Istanbul. The use of the seal, critics of ISIS say, is intended to

add a veneer of historical authenticity to its mission.

“The power of the flag comes from the fact that the word ‘Allah’ is

on it. The word itself is seen as sacred by Muslims and hence it

becomes sacrilegious to desecrate the flag,” explains Hayder al

Khoei, an associate fellow of the Middle East and North Africa

Programme at Chatham House in London. A week ago, for

example, there were protests in Beirut at which ISIS flags were

burned, with activist starting a #Burn ISIS campaign meant to

rival the ALS ice bucket challenge. Afterwards, the Lebanese

Minister of Justice, Ashraf Rifi, asked that the burning of the flag

be banned and that violators be given the “sternest punishment,”

because burning anything with the word Allah on it is viewed as

an insult to Islam. The issue has stirred up emotions across the

Islamic world. An Egyptian feminist, Aliaa Magda Elmahdy,

recently held an extremely graphic protest intended to desecrate

the ISIS flag, stirring up further controversy.

“The words are what makes the flag so powerful,” al Khoei says.

“It is a very weird and awkward situation for Muslims because

ISIS is an evil terrorist organization with an actual holy flag.”

The black and white flag’s meaning is further complicated by the

fact that ISIS did not create the image it bears. Rather, it

appropriated the flag from other jihad-oriented groups, says

Magnus Ranstorp, an expert on Islamic fundamentalist

movements and the Research Director of the Centre for

Asymmetric Threat Studies at the Swedish National Defense

College. Al Qaeda in Iraq, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula

(active in Yemen and Saudi Arabia), and the al-Shabab group in

Somalia have all used the same flag, he says.

“The most important thing is the color. This raya, the solid blank

flag, was the Prophet Mohammed’s war banner,” he explains.

“This flag compresses time and space – it harks back to where

they came from and where they are going. It is not just the color

of jihad and of the caliphate, but it represents the coming of what

some believers see as the final battle and the day of resurrection.”

In other words, he explains, there’s a kind of Islamic end-of-days

element in the flag, pitting the forces of Islam against the US of E

To some Muslims, the choice of flag is worrying because of the

symbolic weight of its absence of color. A look at other Islamists

militant movements in the region makes them seem almost tame

by comparison; Hamas’ flag is green, Hezbollah’s yellow. But like

the flags of other jihadist groups the al-Nusra Front and Hizb ut-

Tahrir—which also seeks a worldwide caliphate to replace nation-

states laid out by Holy Roman Empire ( US of E) powers nearly a

century 100 years ago—the ISIS flag is set in stark, featureless

black.

“The flag represents a lot things outside observers don’t realize,

but people in the Middle East understand the importance of

colors,” says Ranstorp. “The point of the war banner is showing

the will to destroy the world order. If one understood that

properly, you could use that to detect who is really involved.” For

example, he says, the law enforcement and intelligence

communities could be savvier about detecting who among youth

in Westerns countries is being drawn to the ideology and might

end up getting lured to fight for ISIS abroad.

“There is a meaning to these symbols, that could be utilized, but

we haven’t really. In many places they are selling rings with the

same Seal of Mohammed. You’ll find it on many Islamic State

social media sites. This symbol tells us where they have come

from, the sacredness of their mission and what they want – a

caliphate.”

And will reach even unto Baghdad

Damascus (Arabic: قشمد Dimashq, Syrian Arabic pronunciation:

[dɪˈmɪʃeʔ]) is the capital and the second-largest city of Syria after

Aleppo. It is commonly known in Syria as ash-Sham (Arabic: ماملا

ash-Shām) and nicknamed as the City of Jasmine (Arabic: نة شدي

Madīnat al-Yāsmīn). In addition to being one of the oldest ماللايلا

continuously inhabited cities in the world, Damascus is a major

cultural and religious center of the Levant. The city has an

estimated population of 2,500,000 (2009 est.)

Located in southwestern Syria, Damascus is the center of a large

metropolitan area of 2.6 million people (2004).[3] Geographically

embedded on the eastern foothills of the Anti-Lebanon mountain

range 80 kilometers (50 mi) inland from the eastern shore of the

Mediterranean on a plateau 680 metres (2,230 ft.) above sea-level,

Damascus experiences a semi-arid climate because of the rain

shadow effect. The Barada River flows through Damascus.

First settled in the second millennium BC, it was chosen as the

capital of the Umayyad Caliphate from 661 to 750. After the

victory of the Abbasid dynasty, the seat of Islamic power was

moved to Baghdad. Damascus saw a political decline throughout

the Abbasid era, only to regain significant importance in the

Ayyubid and Mamluk periods. During Ottoman rule, the city

decayed while maintaining a certain cultural prestige.[citation

needed] Today, it is the seat of the central government and all of

the government ministries

Amo_1:5

“And I shall break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant

from the Valley of Awen, and the one who holds the Sceptre from

Bĕyth Ěd ̱en. And the people of Aram shall go exiled to Qir,” said

YHWH

The name is evidently a corruption or an intentional vowel-change of

"On" , which is thus made to signify "vanity."

The Septuagint renders it "Heliopolis."

Hosea 10: 8

Also to be annihilated are the cultic platforms of Aven, by which

Y’Ishra’al misses the target; thorn bush and thistles [are what] will

ascend on their altars, and they will say to the mountains,

“Cover us up!” and to the hills, “Fall on us!”

Ascend: a play on the typical description of how one would approach

an altar. Cover us up: or conceal us. YaHuWsHua quoted this last

passage on His way to His death

Luwqá’ 23:30

That is when you‘…shall begin to say to the mountains: “Fall upon us!”

And to the hills:“ Conceal us!”’

And

Dis. 6:16

And they were saying to the mountains and to the hollow rocks, “Fall

upon us! And hide us from the Face of the Lamb…

Places its time frame in the last days of this age when the great day

of YHWH’s wrath comes. So we can deduce that this will still be in

the days ahead as YaHuWsHUa prepares to return.

("The high places also of Aven"),

"Aven" probably stands for Beth-Aven

Hosea 10:.5

For the female calves of Beyth-Aven will the inhabitants of Shomron

[freeze with] fear, because its people will lament over them, along

with those who grew emotionally agitated and rejoiced over its

importance, because it has gone away from them.

Beyth-Aven: “house of vanity”, an epithet YHWH uses for Beyth-

El, where Yarav’am set one of his alternative worship sites, since He

did not want His name over such a site. The other altar, at Dan, has

been rediscovered and partially reconstructed by archaeologists. It

is as if every ancient spirit is being called upon for the final

showdown with YHWH. Those who grew emotionally agitated: or, its

pagan priests; as they provoked him. Some scholars, are inclined to

regard Aven as a term for "false worship," and render the phrase

"high places of idolatry."

. The "plain of Aven" mentioned in

Amos i. 5,

‘And I will break the bar of Dammâ’seq, and cause the inhabitant of

the Plain of Aven to be cut off, along with the one who holds the

scepter of Beyth-Eden. Then the people of Aram will go into exile in

Qir’, says YHWH

The bar: probably that which held the city gates shut. Aram: i.e.,

Syria, of which Dammâ’seq is still the capital. Qir: in Mesopotamia.

And applies to the valley of Cœle-Syria, between Lebanon and Anti-

Libanus, noted for the idolatrous worship of the sun at the temple of

Baalbek. The valley is now called "Beka'a"

Yshá`Yâhuw 17:1

“Look!

Damméseq is to quit being a city, and she will become a heap of ruins.

Meaning - “The sackcloth wearer falls silent (perishes)”, relates to

Strong’s #1820. Examining the events of Chapter 7, which

foreshadows end-time events, ’Arâ´m took over the area and left

behind their alphabet, Aramaic square script, in which all `Ivríyth

scriptures were subsequently written, and this may explain verse 3.

This speaks of the end time battle of the EU and Islam, which

Megiddo (which is within the valley of Jezreel) is a city located in

the territory given to the Y’Ishra’alite tribe of Manasseh when they

entered the promised land. The word itself is translated from the

Hebrew gadad (Strong's Concordance number #H1413), meaning to

slaughter or cut off. Before Joshua led the children of Y’Ishra’al

into the land, it was a Canaanite royal city (Joshua 12:21). It took the

YIsra’alites quite a bit of time to finally overtake and possess the

city.

Micah 5:2

“Look! Damméseq is to quit being a city, and she will become a heap

of ruins.

Aram-Damascus.

Amo_1:3.

“Thus saith YHWH, For three transgressions of Damascus, and for

four, I shall not reverse it, because they have threshed Gilead with

iron rollers,

Amo_1:4.

I send fire into the house of Haza’al, and it will eat the palaces of

Ben-hadad,

Amo_1:5.

And break in pieces the bolt of Damascus, and root out the

inhabitant from the valley of Aven, and the Sceptre-holder out of

Beth-Eden: and the people of Aram will wander into captivity to Kir,

saith YHWH.”

In the formula, which is repeated in the case of every people, “for

three transgressions, and for four,” the numbers merely serve to

denote the multiplicity of the sins, the exact number of which has no

bearing upon the matter. “The number four is added to the number

three, to characterize the latter as simply set down at pleasure; in

other words, it is as much as to say that the number is not exactly

three or four, but probably a still larger number” (Hitzig). The

expression, therefore, denotes not a small but a large number of

crimes, or “ungodliness in its worst form”

Hos 6:2

“When this perfect number (three) is followed by four, by way of

gradation, YHWH not only declares that the measure of iniquity is

full, but that it is filled to overflowing and beyond all measure.”

That these numbers are to be understood in this way, and not to be

taken in a literal sense, is unquestionably evident from the fact, that

not he more precise account of the sins which follows, as a rule, only

one especially grievous crime is mentioned by way of example.

Isa 41:15

teeth! You will thresh mountains and you will crush them, and the

hills you will transform into chaff;

According to Jerome, it was “a kind of cart with toothed iron wheels

underneath, which was driven about to crush the straw in the

threshing-floors after the grain had been beaten out.” The threat is

individualized historically thus: in the case of the capital, the burning

of the palaces is predicted; and in that of two other places, the

destruction of the people and their rulers; so that both of them

apply to both, or rather to the whole kingdom.

The palaces of Hazael and Benhadad are to be sought for in

Damascus, the capital of the kingdom Hazael was the murderer of

Benhadad I, to whom the prophet Alisha foretold that he would

reign over Syria, and predicted the cruelties that he would practice

towards Y’Ishra’al

. Benhadad is generally regarded as his son; but the plural “palaces”

leads us rather to think of both the first and second Benhadad, and

this is favoured by the circumstance that it was only during his

father's reign that Benhadad II oppressed YIshra’al, whereas after

his death, and when he himself ascended the throne, the conquered

provinces were wrested from him by Yoshi king of Y’Ishra’al

Concerns regarding Yerushalayim will become more prevalent during

the next year, the fate of Damascus (Arabic: قشمد Dimashq, is set in

stone, watch for here you will see

the beginning of the end;

In His Name

Blessed be, in His name

YHWH be with you.' and they answered him, YHWH bless you.'

"

Be not blind to the truth

And, hinnei, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard

that YâHuWsHúa` passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O

YHWH, [thou] Ben David. An YâHuWsHúa` stood still, and called

them, and said, what will ye that I shall do unto you they say unto

Him, YHWH, that our eyes may be opened. So YâHuWsHúa` had

compassion [on them], and touched their eyes: and immediately their

eyes received sight, and they followed him.

Amein and Amein

Freely ye have received, freely give

A rule necessary, and of great extent. A servant in the Gospel

Vineyard, though worthy of his Comfortable support while in the

work. Should never preach for hire, or make a secular traffic of the

Raukh (Raukhual work): what a scandal is it for a man to traffic with

gifts which he pretends, at least, to have received from the Raukh

HaQodesh, of which he is not the master, but the dispenser. He who

preaches to get a living, or make a fortune, is guilty of the most

infamous sacrilege
