FOR THE LOVE OF ZION
Dear Mishpochah (family):
In the late 1970's, Hal Lindsey wrote a book, "The Late Great
Planet Earth". This book sold MILLIONS of copies.
This book was the beginning of the evangelical Christian
interest in Bible prophecy in the modern Era.
Mostly all of us who have been associated with evangelical
Christianity are quite familiar with the evangelical teaching of the
end of days.
However is the evangelical Christian view the SAME as the Hebraic
view?
Evangelical Christianity does NOT teach the body of Messiah that
we need to express our faith in Yeshua / Jesus as Messiah by
following Torah.
Evangelical Christianity does NOT teach that the two houses of
Israel will be restored and regathered during the tribulation prior
to the second coming of the Messiah.
Evangelical Christianity does NOT regard that a MAJOR sign of the
end of days and the coming of the Messiah is an end-time battle
between Jacob and Esaw.
While evangelical Christianity does NOT teach these things
regarding the end of days, the prophets of Israel (Jeremiah, Ezekiel,
Isaiah etc) DO.
You probably already know the evangelical view of the end of
days but do you know the HEBRAIC VIEW?
The HEBRAIC VIEW of the end of days is the cry of ZION.
WHAT IS ZION?
In the past week, I had an e-mail conversation with a "Zion"
ministry. However, this ministry does NOT teach about the two houses
of Israel. The person told that this is too "hot" of a topic for the
ministry for them to deal with.
I wrote back to this person and asked them, "How can you call
yourself a ZION ministry when you DON'T know what ZION is?"
Do you realize that evangelical Christianity does NOT know what
ZION is also?
So what is BIBLICAL ZION?
Biblical Zion is:
#1) The people of YHVH repenting of their sins. Believe that Yeshua /
Jesus is the Messiah and follow His Torah
#2) The restoration and regathering of both houses of Israel
#3) The coming of King Messiah and the Messianic Era
Basically, Biblical Zion is all about the 2nd coming of the
Messiah and the Messianic Era.
YET ... evangelical Christianity doesn't believe they should
follow Torah.
YET ... evangelical Christianity doesn't know about the
importance and significance of the restoration and regathering of
both houses of Israel
As a result, while He tarried, they ALL SLUMBERED AND SLEPT.
KJV Matthew 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and
slept.
ZION is SLEEPING!
Why?
ZION doesn't know that they need to follow Torah.
ZION doesn't know that there will be a restoration and
regathering of both houses of Israel back to the land of Israel.
So HOW does ZION get awakened out of her sleep?
BLOW THE TRUMPET IN ZION
KJV Joel 2:1 BLOW ye the TRUMPET in ZION, and sound an alarm in my
holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the
day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
A SHOFAR is being blown in ZION at the dawn of the Messianic
Era (day of YHVH).
Why? Those IN ZION are BLOWING a SHOFAR to wake up those who
are slumbering.
The Bible calls those in ZION who are BLOWING the SHOFAR to
awaken the people of YHVH out of their spiritual slumber WATCHMEN.
KJV Isaiah 52:8 Thy WATCHMEN shall lift up the voice; with the voice
together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD
shall bring again ZION.
KJV Jeremiah 31:6 For there shall be a day, that the WATCHMEN upon the
mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us GO up to ZION unto the
LORD our God.
THE WATCHMEN SAY: LET US GO TO ZION
The watchmen say: "Let us go to Zion". How do they do it?
With a shofar. While this can be expressed literally, spiritually it
is a call to FOLLOW TORAH and PREPARE to return to the land of Israel
and stand with Judah in the land.
OUT OF ZION GOES FORTH THE TORAH
The watchmen of Zion say: Follow Torah. For out of ZION
shall go forth the Torah.
KJV Isaiah 2:3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us
go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob;
and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for
out of ZION shall go forth the TORAH, and the word of the LORD from
Jerusalem.
If you are NOT following Torah then you are NOT in Zion
because out of ZION shall go forth the TORAH.
WATCHMEN UPON THE WALLS OF JERUSALEM
OUT OF ZION goes forth the TORAH from JERUSALEM
ZION = JERUSALEM
JERUSALEM = ZION
Out of Zion goes forth the Torah
The watchmen are upon the walls of Jerusalem.
KJV Isaiah 62:6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which
shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of
the LORD, keep not silence,
KJV Isaiah 62:7 And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he
make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
ZION RETURNS TO THE LAND OF ISRAEL
KJV Jeremiah 3:14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I
am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a
family, and I will BRING you to ZION:
KJV Jeremiah 3:18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the
house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the
north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your
fathers.
ZION = house of Judah and house of Israel walking together
ZION = house of Judah / house of Israel return to the land of Israel
KJV Psalm 102:16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in
his glory.
Build Zion = house of Judah and house of Israel walking together
Build Zion = Messiah appearing in His glory
KJV Psalm 147:2 The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth
together the outcasts of Israel.
Build Zion = Build Jerusalem
Build Zion = Build Jerusalem = Gathers the outcasts of Israel
KJV Jeremiah 23:3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all
countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to
their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
KJV Ezekiel 34:13 And I will bring them out from the people, and
gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land,
and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all
the inhabited places of the country.
Build Zion = Build Jerusalem = Gather the outcasts of Israel =
End of the exile of the house of Israel and the house of Judah
WHEN DOES ZION RETURN TO THE LAND OF ISRAEL?
Zion returns to the land of Israel during the end-time
battle between Jacob and Esau. This is called the "controversy of
Zion".
KJV Isaiah 34:8 For it is the day of the LORD'S vengeance, and the
year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.
There is a "controversy" in Zion when the land of Israel
gets divided.
When the nations of the world (with the permission of the
nation of Israel) divide the land of Israel, it results in JUDGMENT
upon the land of ISRAEL AND THE WHOLE WORLD.
KJV Joel 3:2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down
into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my
people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the
nations, and parted my land.
PARTING MY LAND = JUDGMENT OF THE NATIONS
What is the form of this judgment? We call it the "war
against terrorism".
BUILDING UP OF ZION = RETURN OF THE MESSIAH
The building up of Zion is associated with the return of the
Messiah.
KJV Psalm 102:13 Thou shalt arise, and have MERCY upon ZION: for the
time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
KJV Psalm 102:16 When the LORD shall BUILD up ZION, he shall APPEAR in
HIS GLORY.
ZION IS ASLEEP!
The sad truth is that ZION is ASLEEP! Zion needs to be
awakened with a SHOFAR BLAST.
THE SOUTHERN / MIDWEST TOUR
Monte Judah of Lion and Lamb Ministries and Eddie Chumney of
Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l conducted a "Southern Tour" of the
USA in February, 2004. We will be conducting a "Midwest Tour" in
August, 2004.
What is our message? WAKE UP ZION!
We are presenting what we call the "Doctrine and Prophecy of
the Two Houses".
We present:
#1) If you are a believer in Messiah, you need to follow Torah
But you say, if this is so, why haven't we been taught this in
our churches?
The answer is it is called, "Dispensationalism". It is called
"Replacement Theology".
So, why have we NOT understood?
#2) You need to know the difference between the LITERAL house of
Jacob and the REDEEMED house of Jacob. We explain this on the
teaching tour.
#3) We are in the end-time battle between Jacob and Esau
We explain this on this teaching tour.
#4) The rabbis teach that the end-time battle between Jacob and Esau
results in the restoration and regathering of both houses of Israel
We explain this on this teaching tour.
I BET that you DO understand and CAN EXPLAIN the "evangelical
Christian" view of the end of days. But do you UNDERSTAND the HEBRAIC
view of the end of days? Do you understand the difference and why?
If you DON'T know who Biblical Zion is and if you DON'T know the
Hebraic View of the end of days, you NEED to do one of two things:
#1) Attend one of the sessions of the Midwest tour during August,
2004
#2) You need to obtain the 3 CD teaching that Monte and I did on the
"Doctrine and Prophecy of the Two Houses" (Southern Tour).
For a SMALL amount of money, you can understand who ZION is and how this
pertains to you TODAY.
The THREE CD set is: $16.
If you live in the USA, the shipping is $3. So the total would
be $19.
If you live outside the USA, this CD set will be sent to you by
AIRMAIL. This cost is $5.
So in the USA, the cost is $19 postage paid.
Outside the USA, the cost is $21 postage paid.
When you order, please make your check out to: (Hebraic
Heritage Ministries Int'l) and indicate that you are ordering the
"Southern Tour" CD package and send to:
Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l

Strasburg, OH, USA 44680
BLOW A SHOFAR IN ZION! DO YOU HEAR IT OR ARE YOU ASLEEP?
May YHVH continue to bless you in your studies.
