·                  We are right now is the midst of what I call the Nimrod seasons—a time of rites and celebrations that are a counterfeit of, and blatant rebellions against, the special things that YHWH the God of Israel commanded us.

 

2Co 11:4  For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.  [ἀνέχομαι  “hold yourself up against”]

 

*** So, when we encounter some person or institution trying to push “another Yeshua”, we need to stand toe-to-toe with them and not give an inch!  The context picks up a few verses down:

 

2Co 11:13  For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

2Co 11:14  And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

2Co 11:15  Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

·                  [“ministers” is translated from the Greek word from which we get deacon.]

 

*** So...who is this “other Jesus”?  Let’s go back to the book of beginnings and perhaps get a clue:

 

Gen 10:8  And Cush begot Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

Gen 10:9  He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.

Gen 10:10  And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

 

·                  Nimrod had the primary titles of “Mighty One” and “Mighty Hunter”.

·                  The title “Mighty One” [rbg  gibur] is blasphemous of itself, because it belongs only to God:

Isa 9:6  For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God [El Gibur], Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

 

·                  Nimrod was the greatest rebel in history.  The root word of Nimrod is drm [M-R-D, to rebel].  This comes down into English in the words murder and marauder.

 

·                  People spoke of Nimrod as being “before the LORD”.  “Before” is the Hebrew ~wnp [panim], which basically means face.  Thus, he thrust himself up to the face of YHWH in rebellion, putting himself between God and the people.  Their attention was focused on him, not their God.  And so it is to this day!  [This is the same word as in “thou shalt have no other gods before Me”; i.e., we are to shove no other gods in His face.]

 

·                  Nimrod was the first world tyrant, marshalling the 70 families into the Tower of Babel enterprise, whereby the language was confused, and the human race was dispersed all over the planet.

·                  His female consort became—as did he—by many different names in different languages and places.  Some of her names were Semiramis, Ashtoreth, Ishtar, Astarte, Isis, Eostre (which comes down to modern English as Easter).  She had the title, “Queen of Heaven”—which persists as the title the Roman Catholics call “Mary”.

·                  Nimrod posed as high priest of the sun god, Baal.  Baal means “another husband”.  After his death, people viewed him as having resurrected and risen up to become Baal!

·                  He claimed to be the Peter (“opener of secrets”) and a Vatis (“soothsaying prophet”).  As such, he initiated the mystery religion.  Peter comes down as Pethor [KJV], the title of Balaam, and the Latin Pater (“Father”).  For instance, the pope is called “Holy Reverend Father [Pater]”.  [More on this later.]

·                  Since he became the sun god, his birthday had to be on December 25th.

·                  The custom was that a mother stayed secluded until her baby boy was 40 days old, then she presented him to the public.  Forty days from Dec. 25 puts you to February 2 (Groundhog Day!).  However, Dec. 25 on the Roman calendar corresponded to January 6 (Orthodox Christmas, Old Christmas, “Original Epiphany”, etc.) on the Babylonian calendar.  Thus, 40 days from there puts you to....FEBRUARY 14!

*** Since we just endured this strange celebration, let’s focus on it a bit:  you will see that no other occasion during the year has the name of Nimrod stamped on it like “Valentine’s Day” does!

·                  Pictures and images of the “Madonna & Child” did not originate in Catholic art—they go back 4000 years to commemorate this presentation ceremony.  [Note that the naked little boy is never shown as circumcised.]

 

  

 

 ·                  In Latin, Nimrod was called Lupercus.  The stem, lupe means wolf.  Remember, Nimrod was the “Mighty Hunter”—especially of wolves.  The wolf population exploded in the early years after the flood, causing humans great problems.  Nimrod established his hero image by leading hunting parties to slaughter the overabundant wolves.  [Kiddy tales like Goldilocks or The 3 Little Pigs may well have come all the way down from that time.]

·                  The Romans called their celebration Lupercalia, signifying “Feast of the Mighty Hunter of Wolves”.  We know it as “Valentine’s Day”.  Why?..

·                  Valens in Latin means strong, mighty, powerful [think of the Hebrew letter alef].  Valentinus means “Mighty One”—the chief title of Nimrod [Gen. 10:8].

*** This whole celebration was blanketed with sexual innuendo because it signified that the mother could now resume amorous activities with husband or lover(s).

 

Dan 11:37  Neither shall he [the antichrist type] regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

 

·                  Note that this is speaking of gods; “Desire of Women” is one of the titles of Nimrod because so many women were consumed with jealousy over him.  “Idol (or Image) of Jealousy” was another title referring to him (or at least, a part of his anatomy):

 

Eze 8:5  Then He said to me, "Son of man, raise your eyes now toward the north." So I raised my eyes toward the north, and behold, to the north of the altar gate was this idol of jealousy at the entrance.

Eze 8:6  And He said to me, "Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations which the house of Israel are committing here, so that I would be far from My sanctuary? But yet you will see still greater abominations." 

 

·                  “Cupid” means desire.  The baby Nimrod was originally viewed as Cupid.  However, he was half black [“Cush”], and when the Europeans became more racist, they replaced him with the pinky-white Horus.

·                  Horus, corresponding to the Chaldean Tammuz, was a baby Ashtoreth had after Nimrod’s death.  She claimed Nimrod engendered him with “a ray of pure light from heaven”, i.e., an “immaculate conception”.  [Do you see a counterfeit in the making here?]

 

* The triad of Nimrod the father, Horus the son, and Ashtoreth/Easter the mother formed the pagan trinity, the model for the modern doctrine established by Constantine’s clerics.

 

*** What about the heart theme with this day?

 

·                  In Chaldean, bal [heart] was associated with Baal [the sun god] because they were so close phonetically.  And some places in the Tanak, the name is rendered as Bel.  Our English words ball and bell derive from these.

·                  Also, the standard symbol we take to mean heart [as found all over “valentine”, was the representation of the female genitalia.  When this symbol is depicted with the shaft of an arrow inserted into it, just what does this represent?....

 

·                  Nimrod’s organ of sex was represented by the phallix, and upright pole or device with a shart end.  The Egyptian “obelisks” are a type, and have been proliferated all over the world, the largest being the Washington Monument.  Until later Roman times, they we situated on the ground.  Then they were mounted on tops of buildings.

 

 

·                  [So—when you have a “steeple” with some “bells” dangling underneath it, what does it really represent?]

 

·                  Also, in some traditions in various localities, it is claimed that—for some reason—Nimrod castrated himself.  Why is it that people hand glistening balls on evergreen trees at certain times?  [The tree itself represents the supposed eternal life of Nimrod and is itself a phallic symbol.]

·                  With the landscape full up upthrust phallic symbols, is this not putting something up “in the face [panim]” of YHWH?

·                  What about the cards on Valentine’s Day?  The ancient Romans had the custom whereby girls’ names would be put in a box and the boys would draw them out.  This determined sex partners for the coming year, beginning with the orgy that night of February 14.

 

*** Nimrod eventually was brought down and chased throughout the Mediteranean world by a posse led by Shem.  He hid out in the Nimbrod Mountains, now known as the Appenines, in western Italy.  He was caught and executed on one of the 7 hills that became the city of Rome.  Then he got the title Saturn, “the Hiding One”.  The Roman celebration at the time of the winter solstice was called Saturnalia—“the feast of the Hiding One”—and is the main contributor to what we know as “Christmas”.

·                  Ancient Hebraic accounts say that the first of the four kings Abraham defeated was really Nimrod, known then by the name Amraphel [Gen. 14], still ruling in the Babylonian territory where he tried to build the tower:

 

Gen 14:1  And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations....

 

*** I am of the opinion that the name Amraphel [lprma] indicates that this indeed is Nimrod.  The Brown Driver Briggs Lexicon gives the meaning as “Sayer of Darkness, or “Fall of the Sayer”.  Remember, Nimrod claimed the title of VATIS, meaning “sooth-saying prophet”.  Let’s look at the word picture and gematria:

 

 

 

a    [alef]                       1                     Ox; strong, mighty

m    [mem]                 40              Waters; chaos

r    [resh]                200             Head; first; person

p    [pey or fey]         80              Mouth; speak, say

l    [lamed]               30              Rod or staff; lead

                                  -----

                                  351 }  3+5+1=9  “Judgment of God”

*** The “Mighty Hunter” also comes down to a nine.

 

WORD PICTURE:  “The mighty head person whose sayings led his people into chaos”....like the dispersal from the confounding of language?

 

*** Nimrod founded the counterfeit religious system that continues, and many call it’s latter end the “Antichrist”.  Let’s look at the value of the name Nimrod [drmn]:

 

n            [nun]                    50

m           [mem]                  40     

r           [resh]                200

d           [dalet]                    4     

                                         ------

                                         294 } 2+9+4=15=1+5= 6

* [6 is the number of man]  Look at this statement:

 

Rev 13:18  Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.

 

 

*** Now...look at the value of rwts [Saturn], the chief Chaldean title for Nimrod:

 

s                    60              Prop; twist

t                  400             Sign or seal; covenant

w                        6             Nail; attaching

r                  200             Head; person, highest

                     -----

666              “The number of the Beast!”

 

*** The word picture I get is:  “He twists and perverts the covenant sign that attaches us to the Highest Person [Yeshua]”.

 

·                  The ST-R [Saturn] root comes down in English as star, which is stern in German.  The ancients called the planets “wandering stars”.  Which planet is #6 out from the sun?

 

*** Coming back to what’s going on right now, much of the Christian world is observing Lent.  Each year, more and more Protestant elements are joining the mother church in this.  But what’s this “Lent”?....

 

Eze 8:12  Then He said to me, "Son of man, do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are committing in the dark, each man in the room of his carved images? For they say, 'The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.'"

 

*** NOTE:  Ezekiel’s commission was to go to the House of Israel.  However, he was a captive in Babylon about 120 years after the northern house was carried off and dispersed.  He could go nowhere, except by our reading, today, that which he wrote.

 

Eze 8:13  And He said to me, "Yet you will see still greater abominations which they are committing."

Eze 8:14  Then He brought me to the entrance of the gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and behold, women were sitting there weeping for Tammuz.

 

·                  Tammuz [Latin Horus] was that supposed son of Nimrod, also supposedly born on December 25, and a would-be “mighty hunter”.  But in the 40th year of his life, he was gored to death by a wild boar.  Thus, people commemorated him by fasting 40 days (a day for each year), ending on the Sunday of his supposed resurrection, when the 3rd and greatest abomination takes place:

 

Eze 8:15  He said to me, "Do you see this, son of man? Yet you will see still greater abominations than these."

Eze 8:16  Then He brought me into the inner court of the LORD'S house. And behold, at the entrance to the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs to the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east; and they were prostrating themselves eastward toward the sun.

 

·                  Thus, the ultimate abomination is the sunrise service on the day called “Easter” in English, but in other languages they call it by their form of the Passover word.

 

*** Let’s look back now at the 1st of these great abominations:

 

Eze 8:2  Then I looked, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of a man; from His loins and downward there was the appearance of fire, and from His loins and upward the appearance of brightness, like the appearance of glowing metal.

Eze 8:3  He stretched out the form of a hand and caught me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the seat of the idol of jealousy, which provokes to jealousy, was located.

Eze 8:4  And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, like the appearance which I saw in the plain.

Eze 8:5  Then He said to me, "Son of man, raise your eyes now toward the north." So I raised my eyes toward the north, and behold, to the north of the altar gate was this idol of jealousy at the entrance.

 

·                  These visions concerned Jerusalem and the temple, but Jews were exiled and the temple destroyed.  And the message is to the latter-day House of Israel.  Could the visions have been in terms of what had recently been going on in Judah—the same types of apostacy that we find in our society today?  Remember, hebraic thinking is circular, not linear.  As Solomon said 3000 years ago, there is nothing new under the sun; what goes around comes around; and, what we see today is nothing new—it’s existed before.

·                  Thus, I believe that this vision fits Rome today.  It’s the world capital of Christianity.  In the courtyard of the Vatican stands an Egyptian obelisk—one of those representations of Nimrod’s manhood.  At times, peoples from all nations crowd into this place dominated by the “Image of Jealousy”.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


*** Remember that names or titles of Nimrod included Santa [really, an anagram for Satan], Peter [“Opener of Secrets”], and Vatis [“Soothsaying Prophet”].  The great cathedral-type building that houses the pope and his ceremonies is named:

 

ST. PETER’S  OF THE VATICAN

 

*** Is there just some sort of coincidence here???

 

·                  Inside that great edifice, each year at midnight coming into the 25th of December the pope [pater] conducts the Mass of Christ.  This is what “Christmas” really is.  The altar, dominated a fabulous golden cup [Jer. 51:7 & Rev. 17: 4] is situated over top of Nimrod’s grave!  This is the hill where Shem’s posse executed and buried him.  For many centuries before the Vatican was built, pilgrims visited it as a shrine.  Today, it is passed off as the tomb of the apostle, Shimon Kefa, who was often called by the Greek name Peter, meaning “rock”.

 

CONCLUSION:

       I tend to think that the 3 great abominations of Ezekiel 8 represent the 3 main “Christian” observances:  [1]  Christmas        [2] Lent            [3] Easter

 

 

*** By  now, I hope you can see that the “Other Jesus” is the Nimrod figure, appearing in many guises under many different names in different places and times, but always conveying this Babylonish system of rebellion against the true God.  Finally, to firmly orient yourself and to be able to instruct others, I would highly recommend that you memorize these five scriptural statements:

 

Deu 12:29  "When the LORD your God cuts off before you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land,

Deu 12:30  beware that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, 'How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?'

Deu 12:31  "You shall not behave thus toward the LORD your God, for every abominable act which the LORD hates they have done for their gods; for they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods.

Deu 12:32  "Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do; you shall not add to nor take away from it.  [NASB]

·                  This makes it perfectly clear that we can never adapt customs and rites used to worship heathen gods and try to use them in worshipping the God of Israel!

 

Jer 10:2  Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen....

 

·                  This continues with the example of going out into the woods and cutting a tree [evergreen], bringing it into the house, and  decking it with silver and gold trappings.

 

Mar 7:7  Howbeit in vain do they worship me [Yeshua], teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

 

·                  Remember that much of what people do has been commanded  by the church system.   For instance, in 354 A.D., Pope Liberius commanded that all should commemorate the birth of “Jesus” on December 25th.

 

Rev 18:4  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her [the system of latter-day Babylon], my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

 

·                  Clear enough...right?

 

Jer 16:19  O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.

 

*** When this great and tremendous day comes, people will come to know the real Jesus—Yeshua haMeshiach, the God and King of Israel, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and lots of other names and titles we could mention.  In that day, the earth will be as full of the knowledge of YHWH as the waters cover the sea  [Isaiah 11:9].
