The Patriots

by Allen Williams


The Christian faith has adopted many pagan practices and rituals over the centuries in its mission to carry out the great commission. This has given rise to a number of religious myths, which have been counter productive to the church's mission to spread the gospel. People sense the phoniness.

The best recognized Christian myth is that Christ died on Good Friday and was resurrected on Easter Sunday. But, how can Christ's raising from the dead be a myth, you ask? The resurrection is a well-documented and witnessed event that is not in question but rather the Church's Easter Sunday resurrection claim.

There is not a shred of evidence to support the church's Easter resurrection story despite the biblical account. In fact, Christ's own words contradict what most churches teach about his death and resurrection.

The Pharisees had asked Jesus to give them a sign that he was the long awaited messiah. His response was "This is an evil generation; they seek a sign; and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonas" the prophet." - Luke 11:29 (KJV). So how does the prophet Jonah prove that Christ was Messiah?

We know from the book of Jonah that he spent 3 days and 3 nights in the belly of the great fish God had prepared. (Jonah 2:17)

The bible gives us a clue with Christ's statement in Matt 12:40: " For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale's belly of the great fish, so shall the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth" . In this verse, Jesus makes the claim that he will be in the tomb of the earth for 3 full days and 3 full nights, the same length of time that Jonah was in the whale's belly.

Remember "..man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." (Luke 4:4) In order to be God, any timetable predicted must be precise.

If God's word is truth, then Christ's claim of being in the belly of the earth for 72 hours must be taken as a literal not a metaphoric interpretation. But there is a problem with the traditional Easter story that claims Christ was in the grave just two days and one night, counting from the sixth hour on Friday afternoon until sunrise Easter morning. Some apologists have claimed that He wasn't in the tomb as long as He thought, so then how could he be God? Clearly the traditional account does not fulfil the 72-hour prophetic sign that must occur for Christ to be Messiah.

The Pharisees of the day clearly understood the prophesy that Jesus gave, as the bible states that the day following the day of preparation, they came to Pilate asking for guards to make sure his disciples did not steal the body on the third day. (Matt 27:v62-63) So, if Jesus was in the grave as he claimed for 72 hours, then what day was he crucified on?

The bible gives a clue to the actual day of crucifixion when it mentions the 'day of preparation', a term used to denote the day before a high Sabbath. High Sabbath's only occur in the annual Holy days laid out by God's Master Plan in Leviticus 23, which are separate and distinct from the weekly Sabbath. This means that the crucifixion had to have occurred during the week of one of the biblical holy feasts but which one?

To answer that we look to the book of John: "Now before the feast of the Passover when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the father.." This statement establishes the crucifixion occurring during the week of Passover. (John 13:1) "Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world." (John 1:29)

These passages indicate that Christ was the Passover lamb symbolized by the lamb without blemish in the old testament ritual (Exodus 12:v5-7). The lamb's blood was to be placed on the side posts and lintel of the door so that God would spare Israel's firstborn in His final plague on Egypt. This lamb was to be killed on the night of the 14^th of the month as commanded in Leviticus 23.

Christ and his disciples celebrated the last supper on the 14^th day of the seventh month, which places his crucifixion on the following day, Wednesday the 15^th of Nisan, a day of Preparation. The Jews celebrate Passover the evening of the 15th.

The 1^st day of unleavened bread occurs on the 16^th and is a High Sabbath. So the week of Christ's crucifixion had two Sabbaths, the weekly one and one from the annual holy days. No work could be done on any Sabbath so food preparation for the holy day must occur on the preparation day. Neither Mary nor anyone else could have possibly gotten to the tomb before early Sunday morning because of the preparations required before the two Sabbaths that week.

In 33 AD, Tuesday night was the 14^th of the month. About the 6^th hour on the 15^th, Jesus died.

God counts time from 'even to even' as one 24-hour day as defined in Genesis 1:5. So, Christ was in the tomb Wednesday even (sundown) to Thursday even (sundown) which is one day. Then from Thursday even until Friday even for a second day. And finally from Friday even until Saturday even for a third day as well as the nights of Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

This satisfies the exact 72-hour requirement in the heart of the earth that Christ prophesied, fixing the Resurrection on the biblical Sabbath, just before sundown and confirming Him as the long awaited Messiah.

But, the bible clearly states that "In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre", which was definitely Sunday morning.

The earthquake and the appearing of the Angel as recounted in (Matt 28:v2-6) was NOT to let Christ out of the tomb because he was already risen (not at dawn that morning but before sunset the previous day. Otherwise, the sign of Jonah could not have been fulfilled.)

Easter sunrise services are simply another myth perpetuated by Christianity's mixed pagan teachings.

"There was no "Easter sunrise service" in the early Church—even according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica: "The name Easter… is derived from Eostre, or Ostara, [ISHTAR] the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring… There is no indication of the observance of the Easter festival in the New Testament." (1911 ed., p. 828). - Tomorrow's World - the Sign of Jonah

So why does Christendom teach such nonsense? Christ provides the answer in Mark 7:9, "Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition."

You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. " My sheep hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me." (John 10:27). His voice of truth stands out from the malaise.

So, do you believe the God of the Bible and follow his command 'to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.." (Matt 28:20) or do you choose to believe Christendom's pagan fables?

{An incredible glimpse into an all encompassing global government where there is no place for alternative views. Citizen freedom continues to rapidly erode with the President's signing of the controversial National Defense Authorization Act allowing for indefinite detention of suspected 'terrorists' which will include US citizens. It is also consistent with the articles of the New International Constitution and Napolitano's goal of intimidating and controlling the American Populace.

An abridged version of Fema's concentration camps is presented here, the reader is referred to http://www.altnews.info/192/fema-concentration-camps/ for the complete reference. A long read but highly informative - Ed.} 

by Periled Sea

There are over 800 prison camps in the United States, all fully operational and ready to receive prisoners. They are all staffed and even surrounded by full-time guards, but they are mostly empty. These camps are to be operated by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) should Martial Law need to be implemented in the United States and all it would take is a presidential signature on a proclamation and the attorney general's signature on a warrant to which a list of names is attached.

The Rex 84 Program was established on the reasoning that if a mass exodus of illegal aliens crossed the Mexican-US border, they would be quickly rounded up and detained in detention centers by FEMA. Rex 84 allowed many military bases to be closed down and to be turned into prisons.

Operation Cable Splicer and Garden Plot are the two sub programs which will be implemented once the Rex 84 program is initiated for its proper purpose. Garden Plot is the program to control the population. Cable Splicer is the program for an orderly takeover of the state and local governments by the federal government. FEMA is the executive arm of the coming police state and thus will head up all operations. The Presidential Executive Orders already listed on the Federal Register also are part of the legal framework for this operation.

The camps all have railroad facilities as well as roads leading to and from the detention facilities. Many also have an airport nearby. The majority of the camps can house a population of 20,000 prisoners. Currently, the largest of these facilities is just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Alaskan facility is a massive mental health facility and can hold approximately 2 million people.

Halliburton Subsidiary Gets Contract to Add Temporary Immigration D... " NY Times| February 4, 2006

Now you realize it's not a thing of conspiracy theorists, it's mainstream news.

Let's review the justification for any actions taken:

Executive Orders associated with FEMA that would suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These Executive Orders have been on record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the stroke of a Presidential pen:

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990

allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995

allows the government to seize and control the communication media.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997

allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998

allows the government to seize all means of transportation, including personal cars, trucks or vehicles of any kind and total control over all highways, seaports, and waterways.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10999

allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000

allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001

allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002

designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003

allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004

allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005

allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051

specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310

grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049

assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921

allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation. General Frank Salzedo, chief of FEMA's Civil Security Division stated in a 1983 conference that he saw FEMA's role as a new frontier in the protection of individual and governmental leaders from assassination, and of civil and military installations from sabotage and/or attack, as well as prevention of dissident groups from gaining access to U.S. opinion, or a global audience in times of crisis. FEMA's powers were consolidated by President Carter to incorporate the:

National Security Act of 1947

Allows for the strategic relocation of industries, services, government and other essential economic activities, and to rationalize the requirements for manpower, resources and production facilities.

1950 Defense Production Act

gives the President sweeping powers over all aspects of the economy

Act of August 29, 1916

authorizes the Secretary of the Army, in time of war, to take possession of any transportation system for transporting troops, material, or any other purpose related to the emergency.

International Emergency Economic Powers Act

enables the President to seize the property of a foreign country or national. These powers were transferred to FEMA in a sweeping consolidation in 1979. Where are these camps?

Ft. Irwin view 2 from higher up : view 3 from higher up with Edwards AFB, George AFB (Closed?) and MCLB Barstow and Ft. Irwin in perspective. Ft. Irwin is a FEMA facility near Barstow. This base is designated inactive but has staffed camp. The surrounding support from Edwards AFB, George AFB, and MCLB Barstow would indicate this is a high importance facility. MCLB Barstow has an interesting mark on its helicoptor pad, which looks suspiciously like an Iron Cross. Check it out. Another view. Irwin is a remote mountain region south of Death Valley National Monument. Designated as inactive, there is a camp at this facility aprox. 30 miles from I-15 in Barstow.

Mather AFB Road to facility is blocked off by cement barriers and a stop sign. Sign states area is restricted; as of 1997 there were barbed wire fences pointing inward, a row of stadium lights pointed toward an empty field, etc. Black boxes on poles may have been cameras. Closer examinations reveal a whole lot more activity than a "closed" base should have. Still more planes and cars at the supposedly closed base including two very large seemingly unmarked jets prepping for takeoff. Also visable was a whole fleet of red tipped planes, which I am told are fire fighting planes.

OTHER LOCATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES

There are many other locations not listed above that are worthy of consideration as a possible detention camp site, but due to space limitations and the time needed to verify, could not be included here. Virtually all military reservations, posts, bases, stations, & depots can be considered highly suspect (because it is federal land). Also fitting this category are Regional Airports and International Airports which also fall under federal jurisdiction and have limited-access areas. Mental hospitals, closed hospitals & nursing homes, closed military bases, wildlife refuges, state prisons, toxic waste dumps, hotels and other areas all have varying degrees of potential for being a detention camp area. The likelihood of a site being suspect increases with transportation access to the site, including airports-airstrips, railheads, navigable waterways & ports, interstate and US highways. Some facilities are disguised as industrial or commercial properties, camouflaged or even wholly contained inside large buildings (Indianapolis) or factories. Many inner-city buildings left vacant during the de-industrialization of America have been quietly acquired and held, sometimes retrofitted for their new uses.

CANADA

Our Canadian friends tell us that virtually all Canadian military bases, especially those north of the 50th Parallel, are all set up with concentration camps. Not even half of these can be listed, but here are a few sites with the massive land space to handle any population:

Suffield CFB just north of Medicine Hat, less than 60 miles from the USA.

Primrose Lake Air Range 70 miles northeast of Edmonton.

Wainwright CFB halfway between Medicine Hat and Primrose Lake.

by George Damon

Long before the Exodus, we find in the book of Genesis, chapter 41, that Joseph is restored to prominence in Egypt, with Pharaoh setting him as ruler of Egypt (directly under Pharaoh). Breaking into verse 45, we read of Pharaoh giving to Joseph as a wife, Asenath [ah-SEE-nath], the daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of the city of On (or Heliopolis). Going on ahead to verses 50-52, Joseph and Asenath later had two sons, the firstborn, Manasseh and the second, Ephraim.

From these verses, it would appear that Manasseh and Ephraim were half-Egyptian, as would be their descendants living today respectively in the United States and Great Britain. Therefore, most of the residents of America and Britain, would appear to be part-Egyptian!

But we have a real dilemma here, in that Joseph, as an Israelite, and as a man close to God, should not be marrying a non-Israelite, the daughter of a Pagan priest.

So, the question here is, did Joseph compromise his faith by marrying an Egyptian woman, perhaps to please Pharaoh, not wanting to offend him, and are we, most of us here today, as descendants of Joseph, therefore, part-Egyptian? To answer this intriguing question of lineage, we must approach the issue from a between-the-lines perspective.

We will begin by briefly looking at what several non-Biblical sources say about Joseph’s wife, Asenath. In the end, we will see that Genesis chapter 46 contains all of the vital evidence necessary to come to a conclusion.

Let’s first look at the apocryphal text of Joseph and Asenath, which, if you read all of it, seems more like a novel than a true historical account but that’s another issue!

Here it is written that Asenath was, for a time kept hidden away, because of her extraordinary beauty, for she was "unlike Egyptian women, slender like Sarah, beautiful like Rebekah, and radiant in appearance like Rachel."

Note that the author of this text includes this enticing innuendo, with out ever stating directly what may be Asenath’s true lineage. Why? Possibly out of reverence for her, by concealing the perceived shame that she was born out of wedlock (as we will look into shortly).

The story indicates that, initially, Asenath did not want to marry Joseph, thinking of him as a vagabond and a foreigner, until she saw him in person, realizing he was not like other men. Asenath rejects her idolatry, converts to Joseph’s God, and they marry.

AD 833, records that Asenath was actually the daughter of Joseph’s sister, Dinah,conceived during her intimacy with Shechem, a Canaanite prince, whether consensual or, according to Josephus, as an act of violence.

As an aside, Genesis chapter 34 records the incident, and the subsequent violent vindication by Jacob’s sons, although nothing is stated as to a pregnancy, or of a child being conceived as a result, perhaps a case of not displaying an inconvenient truth.

A third non-Biblical source,The Legends of the Jews, Volume II, by Louis Ginzberg, published in AD 1910, states that Asenath was indeed Dinah’s daughter, and taken as a baby to the borders of Egypt (with assistance from the angel, Gabriel), but with an amulet fastened around her neck describing the details of her birth. She was found and adopted by the priest, Poti-Pherah, but it appears that her true identity was kept from her.

Now, the three non-Biblical sources that we have just looked at, might be viewed with some scepticism, in that they might not necessarily be true history, and certainly are not accepted as inspired scripture. But these sources are sufficiently enticing (as they were to me!) as to cause one to look more closely at what the Bible itself does say (or perhaps conceals!) about the identity of Joseph’s wife in Egypt. One researcher, I found, has looked into this issue.

Coming down to the present day, we find a relevant article published in 2001, titled Jacob’s Seventieth Descendant by Dr. John Pratt, astronomer and religious chronologist.

Dr. Pratt describes the subject of Asenath in detail, and is able to tie-in certain aspects of non-Biblical sources (such as those we have just discussed) with Asenath’s identity as revealed (or actually concealed!) within Genesis chapter 46. In doing so, Dr. Pratt demonstrates that Genesis 46 alone contains all the information necessary, although in the form of a puzzle, to deduce that Asenath, the mother of Ephraim and Manasseh, was indeed the daughter of Dinah of the House of Israel.

One aspect of this puzzle has to do with recognizing that the words TO Egypt and WITH Jacob to Egypt are not necessarily the same thing. For example, we read of Jacob’s descendants who went TO Egypt, stated in Gen 46:8, which is all-inclusive with no time frame. However, in the previous verses 6 & 7, we read of Jacob’s descendants who went WITH him to Egypt, where a specific time-frame is stated. So keep this in mind. Another aspect of this puzzle involves a couple of mathematical ambiguities in Genesis 46.

Math ambiguity #1 occurs in Gen 46:15 where we find that Leah’s six sons and one daughter, plus the offspring of Leah’s sons, are stated as totaling 33, yet a careful count of these people in verses 8 through 15, adds up to only 32. Josephus (in Antiquities Book II, chapter 7) records (or copies) this exact same ambiguity! Moreover, the grand total count of offspring in verses 8 through 25 adds up to only 69, whereas verse 27 states that all of the persons of the house of Jacob who went TO Egypt were 70. So, one person is missing.

Math ambiguity #2 is similar, and occurs because we are told in verse 26 that 66 descendants went WITH Jacob to Egypt, that Joseph and his two sons were already in Egypt, adding to 69, but that the total number in the house of Jacob who went TO Egypt was 70 (as already mentioned as verse 27). So one person is still missing, no matter how we look at it!

The hypothesis put forth by Dr. Pratt, to resolve this puzzle, is that the missing and unidentified person is actually Joseph’s wife, Asenath! This hypothesis is supported by the following evidence, as four exhibits (summarized for brevity from what Dr Pratt presented):

Exhibit #1: The missing and unidentified person must be Leah's descendant, since Leah had 33 descendants, yet only 32 are listed with her name in verse 15. Given that the missing and unidentified person was Leah’s descendant, that leaves unstated any offspring of Leah’s only daughter, Dinah. So the missing descendant would appear to be Dinah's child.

Exhibit #2: Because only 66 went WITH Jacob to Egypt, then the missing and unidentified 70th person must have already been in Egypt (as were Joseph and his two sons). Indeed, verse 20 mentions not only Joseph and his two sons, but also Joseph’s wife, Asenath! So that brings the total names to four of those who did not make the trip to Egypt WITH Jacob, because they were already in Egypt, adding up to 70 total descendants.

Exhibit #3: Although not specifically stated by Dr. Pratt, Joseph and his family comply with verses 8 & 27, as among those who went TO Egypt, in that: Joseph came to Egypt three years earlier; also his two sons, figuratively, in Joseph’s loins; and Asenath, by default, by her being included in verse 20, one of the many surrounding verses listing those who went TO Egypt.

Exhibit #4: In verses 26 & 27 we are told that the wives of Jacob’s sons were not included in the counting. So is not Joseph's wife, Asenath, disqualified because of that? The answer is that, indeed, none of the wives were counted, that is, all but one. The wording expressly allows Asenath to be the 70th descendant, because she was already in Egypt!

In conclusion, I ask, who was Joseph’s wife in Egypt......that is......was she Egyptian, or was she of the House of Israel? The relevant scriptures appear to conceal the evidence in what appears to be in the form of a puzzle.

Prov 25:2 says that It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

The resulting searched-out evidence, as presented, is that Joseph's wife, Asenath, was the daughter of Jacob’s only daughter, Dinah, and that Asenath was indeed of the House of Israel!
