Prophecies About Our Messiah Satan Wants to Counterfeit
Who is this that comes. . . red in your apparel (Isaiah 63:2). Who wears boots and a suit of red? Santa wears boots and a suit of red!
“Cap on head, suit that’s red, Special night, beard that’s white, Must be Santa, Must be Santa,
Must be Santa, Santa Clause”
Satan wants to be the Messiah! The Master YaHuW’shuwa
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 63:1-2: 1 Who is this that comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. 2 Wherefore are you red in your apparel, and your garments like him that treads in the winefat?
Revelation 19: 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he does judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of Elohiym (God).
Do you get the strangest feeling that someone is trying to “be like someone else”?
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Once again, we see the “signature” Papal staff in his hand. Is this supposed to be the Resurrected Christ come to reign? St. Nicholas, the Pope, or “Santa Claus?” Who can tell? Or maybe that’s the point! Notice that the colors he is wearing are “scarlet & purple” just like the woman who is riding a Beast in Revelation 17.
The Historical “St. Nicholas” who hated Hebrews wouldn’t get along with the biblical Hebrew Messiah known as Yahuwshuwa, who kept the Sabbath, Holy Days, and Levitical diet. Our Messiah would never want a day in his honor on which Hebrews were ritually killed every Dec. 25th, but Saint Nicholas didn’t mind.
The 151st attendee listed in an A.D. 510 manuscript of attendees of the Council of Niceae was “Nicolas of Myra of Lycia.” Amazingly, December 25th was established as a supposedly “Christian” holiday at the Council of Nicea, and so was Easter, and Sunday. If anyone kept the Holy Days instead, Constantine had them put to death. St. Nicholas was all in favor of this, and mysteriously, X-mas later honored him. Imagine that. And that the same time the Roman Saturnalia was on December 25th, and was celebrated often by the ritual sacrifice of a Hebrew.
Saint Nicholas, was a Senior Bishop at the Council of Nicea. He wrote that Hebrews were “children of the devil that killed our Lord Jesus.”
At the Council of Nicea – “Those who openly or secretly keep the Sabbath and follow other practices in the manner of the Hebrews are not to be received into communion, nor into prayer, nor into the church....”
The Council of Laodicea – “It is not permitted to receive festivals which are by Jews, nor to hold a festival together with them. Christians must not Judaize by resting on the Sabbath, but must work on that day...but if any be found to be Judaizers let them be anathema from Christ.”
Constantine wrote: “Let us have nothing in common with the Jews, who are our adversaries. This irregularity of observing Passover must be corrected, in order that we may no more have anything in common with the parricides and murderers of our Lord.”
Nimrod the Abominable Branch
“The Branch” was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah foretold of our Messiah, as THE RIGHTEOUS BRANCH:
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
This prophecy above is about Yahuwshuwa the Messiah (Jesus)--the righteous BRANCH. Ezekiel spoke of this very same BRANCH:
Zekaryahuw (Zechariah) 3:8 Hear now, O Yahuwshuwa (Joshua) the high priest, you, and your fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
You will notice that the Temple Menorah has 7 Branches. The Menorah is deliberately meant to resemble the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden. The Middle Branch is the main trunk of the tree represented as our Messiah (the Servant Candle who lights the others). And the other 6 branches represent mankind for on the 6th day The Most High created man.
It is for this reason, that our Messiah said these words:
Yahuwchanon (John) 15:5 I am the vine, you are the branches:
But Nimrod was the UNRIGHTEOUS BRANCH:
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 14:19 But you are cast out of your grave like, an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcass trodden under feet.
Yehezqel (Ezekiel) 8:17 ....they commit the abominations.....to provoke me to anger: and, lo they put the branch to their nose.
Why was Nimrod & Tammuz symbolized by an “Abominable Branch?”
In the history of the Babylonian Empire, Shem (Noah’s son) had Nimrod killed because he and his mother/wife, Semiramis were offering up babies to Molech on December 25th during the winter solstice and also in Easter Sunrise services for the “spring equinox” on March 25th.
When Shem and his men found Nimrod, they chopped off his body parts just like limbs to a tree, and his limbs were sent to various provinces within the land of Shinar. From then on, Semiramis, (his wife and mother) commanded the Babylonians to memorialize Nimrod by going into the Forrest to cut down a tree to remember Nimrod who was “cut down like a tree.”
This is why The Most High forbids us to erect a “Christmas Tree” even if it is supposedly in the honor of “Jesus:”
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 10:2 Thus says The Most High, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
From the ancient days of Nimrod, (when his body parts were chopped off and scattered throughout the Provinces of Shinar), from that point on, Nimrod or Ba’al was known as “the god of the tree.”
The Druids and the Celts continued to worship this pagan deity now called “The Green Man” through orgies in the forest under trees and erecting Christmas Trees.
Has anything changed today in America? Are we not just as adulterous as backsliding Yisra’el who played the harlot under every green tree?
Yeshayahuw (Isaiah) 57:5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 3:6 The Most High said also unto me in the days of Yohshi’Yah (Josiah) the king, Have you seen that which backsliding Yisra’el has done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there has played the harlot.
Debarim (Deuteronomy) 12:2 You shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which you shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:
1st Melakim (Kings) 14:23 For they also built them high places, and images, and groves [asherah], on every high hill, and under every green tree.
2nd Melakim (Kings) 17:10 And they set them up images and groves [asherah] in every high hill, and under every green tree:
Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah) 3:13 Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against The Most High your Elohiym, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and you have not obeyed my voice, says The Most High.
Notice Nimrod often pictured with a Pine Tree and Reindeer, and then Santa the same! The Nimrod photo is from a 4,000 year old Babylonian woodcut made by a Babylonian.
And so our Christmas tree and our Yule log have tremendous meaning, but not a biblical meaning. The Yule log is the dead Nimrod’s penis, human ruler of ancient Babylon, who was eventually deified as the sun incarnate, and hence a god.
The Christmas tree is mystical Tammuz, the slain god come to life again----After Armageddon, Chapter 4,Where do we get our ideas? by John A. Sarkett
Why Are Red & Green Official Christmas Colors?
Santa’s Suit was originally Green before the Coca-Cola Company came along. The suit is based on the Celtic god/demon called the “Green Man of the Woods” whose colors were Red and Green, their version of Attis (Tammuz in the Bible). They got the idea from the Babylonian Tammuz who was an “evergreen tree” the god who was worshiped on December 25th, hence the “branches” placed to the nose in Ezekiel 8:17.
“Pope Gregory...advised Saint Augustine to allow his converts certain festivals as formerly they had done this in honor of the devil. Therefore, St. Augustine permitted their usual December celebration under the new name. From these early pagan ceremonies are derived many of the English holiday customs that have survived to our day.”----The Evolution of Christmas; Published in 1909
Didn’t the Apostle Sha’ul (Paul) warn the Galatians to NOT GO BACK to the superstitions and holidays they kept “BEFORE they knew Elohiym (God)?”As you can see below, there is a chart showing what these ELEMENTS really are. These weak and beggarly elements are used by the pagans as they worship the created things in nature. You will also notice the 5-pointed star of witchcraft is in the center. This is the essence of paganism and the basis for pagan holidays. This is what the Apostle Paul meant in Galatians when he spoke of weak and beggarly elements!
Galatians 4:8 Howbeit then, when you knew not Elohiym, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods. 9 But now, after that you have known Elohiym, or rather are known of Elohiym, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days, and months, and times, and years (astrology). 11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
