TEXT: JEREMIAH 51: 51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house. (KJV)

Today I would like to deliver a message entitled “JERUSALEM SHALL BE TRODDEN DOWN OF THE GENTILES (2).”

It is written on Luke as below, “Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled” in the end time.

LUKE 21: 24 Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. (KJV)

This is the parable, as many descriptions of the end time are so. Jerusalem is the metaphor of the Church, and it refers to that the center of the Church will be occupied by the Gentiles, the unbelievers now, who do not believe in God.

Well, there is the similar description concerning this on Jeremiah, which is the text. The day when the Gentiles come into the Temple of the Lord is the end time day, and it is the day of misery to us when our headquarters are taken away by the enemy, exactly as is written, “shame hath covered our faces.”

The passage of the context of the text is as below.

JEREMIAH 51: 41- 58 41 How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!

42 The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with multitude of the waves thereof.

43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.

44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.

45 My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord.

46 And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumor that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumor, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.

47 Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.

48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come upon her from the north, saith the Lord.

49 As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.

50 Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.

51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house.

52 Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.

53 Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her, saith the Lord.

54 A sound of a cry cometh from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:

55 Because the Lord hath spoiled Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered;

56 Because the spoiler is come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the Lord God of recompences shall surely requite.

57 And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.

58 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary. (KJV)

Let’s look at the above passage.

41 “How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!”

Babylon mentioned here may refer to the Babylonized Church in the end time. This also refers to harlot Babylon on Revelation.

This day the Babylonized Church is taken by the enemy. The Church that is the praise of the whole earth is taken, and her doctrine and spirit are utterly Babylonized.

42 “The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with multitude of the waves thereof.”

The sea is filled with water and is likened to the metaphor of water of the Holy Spirit. In this case the spirit is not of the Holy Spirit but of the beast, which will weigh on Babylon.

43 “Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.”

Cities, many churches, will be desolate because of the false doctrine and the spirits of beasts. And, it is written, “a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.” The point of attention here is that “no man dwelleth.” Though no man dwells, beasts such as jackals and foxes dwell there. It is suggested that the Church is made beast and Christians whom God regards as men are cut off.

44 “And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.”

As the Wall of Berlin separated the east and the west Germany, the wall of this nation, the Church, separated and protected the people from the enemy to come in. But this day the wall fell, and the enemy came in freely to the Church to speak the false teaching.

45 “My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord.

46 And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumor that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumor, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.”

It is necessary to go out of this nation, the Church, that God will judge.

47 “Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.”

The graved images are not of Buddha or “Jizo.” It is nonsense to punish images of wood or stone.

This means, however, worship of vessels or saints, and the time will come when those who are content with glory not due to them are punished. The slain has relation to the word “sword” which is liked to the metaphor. Sword is the metaphor of the Word, as is written, “The sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” So, the slain mean those who are fallen in the false teachings.

48 “Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come upon her from the north, saith the Lord.”

The north means the northern Israel, that is situated in the north of Jerusalem, the center of the world, and is the sign for the Catholic now. Many kinds of lies, deceptions, and teachings of the devils will come into the Protestant Church and spoil them.

Catholic means universal, and it is said that the word “The Roman Catholic Church” has the hidden meaning that the Church has taken in all kinds of heretic teachings and religions of Rome universally.

Surely the Bible has essentially told to exclude women worship like Mary worship, but this church has taken in such things without shame. These lies will well penetrate the Protestant from now on. For example, it is the first such action that they have together taken in the Apocrypha of lies and devils with the pretended name of the “Supplementary” to the New Unification Bible.

49 “As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.”

The slain of all the earth are fallen in the Church, Babylon. They are foolish people who accept false teachings without shame to forsake the Word of the Person who is said, “The Word is God.” They will be fallen in this church.

50 “Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.”

But, there will be minority people who have escaped the sword among many who are fallen in the sword, the false teachings. They are those who are faithful to the Person of the Word and do not deny the Word. It is written to them, “go away, stand not still.” It is not His will to stay in this church.

This time strangers come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house. This shows the same as is written on Luke, “Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles.”

Jerusalem, that is, a city, means many houses. Houses are the metaphor of churches where brothers and sisters live. A city is filled with houses and so the metaphor of a religious fraternity that has many churches.

To this, a temple, a sanctuary, is the metaphor of a church where worship and prayer are serviced.

This time strangers come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house. Strangers, devil worshippers, come into the sanctuaries where only most holy, chosen priests come in.

This saying is not exaggeration but is just fulfilled before our very eyes.

There stand in the midst of holy meetings where many Christians truly serve God and pray, what, devil worshipers who lay their hands on and give messages. Such are Benny Hinn and Rodney Howard on that video tape.

Such a thing has never been done in the Christian Church in the past. It exactly shows the word, “Shame hath covered our faces.” Our generation that has allowed such to happen should think it over why such is allowed to happen.

Of course, they might be clever. But, such cannot be happened unless the Lord acknowledges our generation to fit for this shame.

52 “Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.”

Graven images mean saints worship. Images are completed of the hand of men. That is to say, they are not made of hands of God but of men. They are those who rely on power of hands of men. It means those who are wounded and fallen by the false teachings, “Through all her land the wounded shall groan.”

53 “Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her, saith the Lord.”

It is written, “Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her.” Let’s think of the meaning.

In those days, as enemies could come to attack possibly at any time, cities were all fortified high. Fortifications push back enemies. But enemies will advance on to the Church climbing over fortifications in the end time. Aren’t they sensitive to heretical teachings in many churches now? And, aren’t they carefully keeping their doctrines, ousting those who say even a little different things to the orthodox teachings? But it is said that enemies will come and spoil over such high fortifications.

This is certainly fulfilled before our eyes. When we were told that wonderful vessels of revival are coming and so we went to the meeting, we found, what, that the foreign vessels and workers were calling spirits of beasts, didn’t we? These spirits of beasts have already climbed over the fortifications of the Church and swept over the insides.

And, the teachings of devils (1 Tim 4: 1) introduced by English medium, Margaret Macdonald such as Pre-tribulation and Partial Rapture Theories have invaded the Church and become now the orthodox ones. It is now in such a wretched state of affairs like that those who point out these teachings of devils are blamed by the Church to the contrary.

54 “A sound of a cry cometh from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:

55 Because the Lord hath spoiled Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered.”

The Church suffers from great destruction under Babylon. The Word is Babylonized and the spirit is influenced by Babylonian Kabala.

56 “Because the spoiler is come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the Lord God of recompences shall surely requite.”

The spoiler here concretely may mean the people who were carried to Babylon.

Their Talmud trained of Babylon now influence greatly interpretation of the Bible and succeed to make the Church Babylonized. The mighty men of faith will be taken in it. They will be shaken by lies such “Dead Sea Scrolls.”

It is written, “For the Lord God of recompences shall surely requite.” Let’s think of this word.

Whom will the Lord recompense in the end time? To think of it, it is the good example that Jerusalem was attacked by the Romans in the year 70 AD. At that time Jerusalem, the city of God’s people, was attacked and the Judah was killed to nobody. This was certainly the day of recompense of God. What did God recompense for? It is for the murder of Jesus, who was said, “The Word is God.” As is written on John 1: 11, “He came into his own, and his own received him not,” these people did not receive Him so that they received the recompense of God.

Well, this is the sign for the end time, and we should know it will be fulfilled in the same way in the end time. It prophesies that the recompense of God will come upon the God’s people who despise and betray the word of the Person who is said, “The Word is God,” and that is My body.

When we partake of the bread that signifies the body of Christ, the Word, in the Holy Communion, we should never forget to be told, “That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread.” “Betrayed” means delivered to death.

What I would like to say is that this bread, the Word, costs His life. We should never take it light. That is why such warning for not taking it unworthily concerning the Holy Communion is given as, “Let a man examine himself, or not to partake it unworthily.”

To tell plainly, those who say proudly to such Word of Christ without fear, “Genesis is a myth. The Theory of Evolution is correct,” are precisely the ones who eat the bread unworthily. Isn’t it a wonder if they will not be recompensed in the end time?

57 “And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.”

It is written about those who say a liar or a deceiver publicly to the Person who is said, “The Word is God,” will “sleep a perpetual sleep.”

We know it is linked to a parable about wine, as is written, “drunk.” Wine is the metaphor of spirit, and those who make the Word the false will be drunk like this in the end time. This is in their word, “the revival has come,” and is the phenomena of revival of beast before God. It is written, “I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men.” So, princes, that is, pastors who are leaders of the Church, wise men, that is, theologians and scholars, captains and rulers, that is, powerful men in the Church, and mighty men of faith, will be drunk in the spirits of lies. Because they have forsaken the Person of the Word and heard lies, they will be entangled into such spirits of lies like this.

And it is written, “They shall sleep a perpetual sleep.” This is a very dreadful word. As they sleep a perpetual sleep, they will not be able to know the truth to the end, until the last moment of the end time. Even so firm a man may miss the station, if he sleeps carelessly in a train. Likewise, they will miss the most important of the end time because they sleep.

The rivals happening now such as Toronto and Pensacola are the ones of beasts planed by Satan to counter the true revival that is coming in the end time. This is the fire to burn the tares.

Therefore, these revivals are so different like heaven and earth. This phenomena is filled with devils, and we should know that those who receive the mark of 666 will never be able to receive the true revival of the Holy Spirit that is coming from now.

As the devils that they have received already say lies about the Holy Spirit, they will never understand or judge properly. It refers to this, “They shall sleep a perpetual sleep.”

Do remember that the Pharisees and scribes said in the past, what, “He is possessed with Beelzebub,” though they saw the work of Jesus in the Holy Spirit.

It shows the spirit of devils they received, that Jesus looked like that or the work of the Holy Spirit looked like that of the devils to their eyes. The cause of the difference in judgment is not of knowledge or idea but the issue of what kind of spirit each receives.

They are those who distort the Word so that they were said, “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers,” and they had received not the Holy Spirit but devils because of their lies. And, their eyes slept a perpetual sleep. They did not understand the truth to the end, although they were before the very Person of the truth.

Those who now receive the spirits of beasts will also never understand or receive the restoration and the revival which are coming from now.

58 “Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.”

It is written, “The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken.” So, the walls of Babylonized Church will be broken and fallen. Once the walls are fallen, the enemies can come to occupy freely. As a result, the city will be destroyed as much as they like. The Babylonized Church of the end time will be the place to the enemies’ satisfaction.

This is already fulfilled, and according to the homepage “The Horn,” revivals of beasts are rampant in Pentecostal and Charismatic churches and the head and many high ranking ministers are made to be freemasonry, Satan worshippers.

It is written, “The people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.” It says that the works of many people will be burned in fire on the day so that they eventually come to the vain result.

It seems worthy to build houses or shops to work and save money, but if the house is fallen by the great earthquake like the Great Hanshin Earthquake some day, it can be said that such is the vain labor as a result.

Likewise, many works and services of the present Church will be burned in fire and come to end in vain.

It is not possible that seminaries, churches, pastors and believers that distort and pervert the Word will go through fire and still remain. These will never endure trials in fire and be entangled into revivals of beasts.

We should not now seek sacrifice (service) but rather hearing the Lord, as is written on Samuel, “To obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken that the fat of rams.”

Let’s do the will of the Lord in the end time.

End.
