Spiritual Warfare - the 3 Top Ruling Spirits - the Three Frogs
·1· Revelation 16:12-14 “And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great Day of God Almighty.”
o Timing of the Prophecy: the frog spirits manifest most epically during the 7 vials.
§ “And the sixth angel poured out his vial…”
o What are the frogs? The frogs are demonic entities, or spirits, or demons
§ “They are the spirits of devils”
o What do the frog spirits do? They go unto (into) the global political leaders, possessing world governments.
§ “…(they) go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world…”
§ They unite the world in rebellion against Yahweh.
The Second Frog Spirit (serves the Beast) - The Spirit of Antichrist (1 John 4:3):
What is the “house” to which Yahshua was referring in this prophecy? The word “HOUSE”, in this passage, is translated from the Greek word οἶκος (Strong’s # 3624). It means: “a dwelling (...literally or figuratively), home, house (-hold), temple.” According to the Lexical Aids, this word can apply both to a literal Temple and to a figurative one (we are the Temple of the Living God) “...to dwell, as God in the temple at Jerusalem (Matt.23:21); to dwell, as Christ (Eph. 3:17) and the Holy Ghost (James 4:5) in the faithful...”
Matthew 24:23-26 foretells what the Spirit of Antichrist will do… Antichrist possess a false Messiah – identifying an imposter as THE BRANCH (the One who fulfills the five OT Branch Prophecies).
Frog Spirit which comes out of the mouth of the Beast:
Demon Name – “the Spirit of Antichrist”
1 John 4:2-4 “Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Yahshua Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahshua Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.”
According to Scripture, although the full unleashing of the Spirit of Antichrist doesn’t come until the very end of the world, the Spirit of Antichrist was already working in Yahshua’s day. In this reference, we can plainly see that the Spirit of Antichrist is not THE ANTICHRIST, but rather it is a spirit which prepares the world to receive the person of the ultimate Antichrist.
· The spirit of antichrist frog spirit brings a DENIAL OF YAHSHUA’S MESSIAHSHIP, causing people to believe that Yahshua is not the Messiah, or that He did not fully fulfill all the Messianic Prophecies.
Suggestion – memorize the Branch Prophecies and Yahshua’s fulfillment Scriptures.
The Branch Prophecies: 5x in Scripture the word BRANCH appears, translated from the Hebrew Tsemach. Why they are so important?
· They portray the 5-fold ministry of Messiah (aka Christ)
· these are critically important because they prove Yahshua’s Messiahship
· The Branch IS Messiah
Demonstration of how important the Branch Prophecies are:
The Branch prophecy roles of Messiah are the center of the Throne of God
Ezekiel and John were given visions in which they saw the Throne of Yahweh. In these visions, both of them witnessed a special order of angelic beings, called Seraphim, who serve the Father at His Throne. These holy beings bear the shapes that represent the most key constellations, which are the symbols of the Branch prophecies.
The Branch prophecy roles of Messiah is also the central theme of the Mazzaroth:
THE BULL BRANCH PROPHECY - Zechariah 3:8 – “Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth My SERVANT the BRANCH.”
BULL – represents Yahshua as the BRANCH Who is the STRENGTH of Heaven (He is the I AM – Aleph manifested for our Salvation) – the SERVANT
· The bull does his master’s work of plowing, grinding the grain, while harnessed in a yoke. Messiah said that His Yoke is easy and His burden is light (Matthew 11:29).
· GOSPEL WHICH SHOWS YAHSHUA'S FULFILLMENT OF THE BULL BRANCH PROPHECY -The Gospel of Mark is written to demonstrate Yahshua’s Servanthood.
o Mark 10:45 (ESV) – “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His Life as a ransom for many.”
o Romans 6:16 – Yahshua’s Servanthood demonstrates obedience unto Righteousness.
· Terms are found throughout Mark to demonstrate good servantship, like “straightway” (because a good servant obeys quickly)
THE LION BRANCH PROPHECY - Jeremiah 23:5 “Behold, the days come, saith Yahweh, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.”
LION – represents Yahshua as the BRANCH Who is the KING of kings
· Messiah would be king out of the lineage of David.
· GOSPEL WHICH SHOWS YAHSHUA'S FULFILLMENT OF THE LION BRANCH PROPHECY - The Gospel of Matthew is written to demonstrate Yahshua’s Kingship from the line of David. (Matthew speaks of the Kingdom, because a King has a Kingdom… He breaks down the Rules of the Kingdom, because He has the Authority to do so, since He is the King)
o Matthew 5:19-20 “Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least Commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.”
· Matthew chapter 1 – demonstrates Yahshua’s lineage of kingship coming through the line of David.
THE EAGLE BRANCH PROPHECY - Jeremiah 33:15 “In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.”
Eagle – represents Yahshua as the BRANCH Who is the JUDGE of all (eagles have amazing sight, which is required for righteous Judgment). Eagle’s also represent swiftness and deliverance.
· Messiah will be the One to Judge the world
· GOSPEL WHICH SHOWS YAHSHUA'S FULFILLMENT OF THE EAGLE BRANCH PROPHECY - The Gospel of Revelation is written to demonstrate Yahshua’s Role as the Judge.
o John_5:22 & 27 “For the Father Judgeth no man, but hath committed all Judgment unto the Son: And hath given Him authority to execute Judgment also, because he is the Son of man.”
o Revelation 14:6-7 “And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the Everlasting Gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His Judgment is come: and worship Him that made Heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.”
THE MAN BRANCH PROPHECY - Zechariah 6:12 “And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD.”
· Man – represents Yahshua as the BRANCH Who is the TEMPLE BUILDER (of Yahweh’s Temple).
Messiah would build the Temple of Yahweh, in His Role as Man.
· GOSPEL WHICH SHOWS YAHSHUA'S FULFILLMENT OF THE MAN BRANCH PROPHECY - The Gospel of Luke is focused on showing Yahshua as the Man.
o Luke shows us why Messiah could take our place, as the Second Adam, because He was a sinless Man.
· Luke shows us that the obedient Life of Messiah is our Example… He – a Man – walked in full obedience to Yahweh’s Torah, as we can also through the power of God. Just as He was obedient and lived Life through the Power of Heaven, so may we.
· How does the Spirit of
Antichrist attack Yahshua’s Fulfillment of the Son of Man Branch Prophecy?
o
The
Spirit of Antichrist is behind the teaching (or doctrine) that Yahshua didn’t
build the Temple of Yahweh, and thus did not fulfill Zechariah 6:12.
o
Antichrist
is the one who is going to build a literal temple –
§
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall
not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin
be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above
all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the
temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
·
Yahshua did build the Temple of Yahweh!
o
1 Peter 2:5
“Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a Spiritual House (Temple), an holy
priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Yahshua
Christ.”
o
1 Corinthians 3:16 “Know ye not that ye are the Temple of God,
and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”
o
Hebrews 9:11-12 - “But when Christ came as high priest of the good
things that have come, He entered the greater and more perfect
Tabernacle not made by hands (that is, not of this creation). He
did not enter by the blood of goats and calves, but He entered the Most Holy
Place once for all by His own blood, thus securing eternal redemption.”
o
Ephesians 2:19-22 - “…You are no longer foreigners and strangers, but
fellow citizens with Yahweh’s people and also members of His household, built
on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Yahshua Himself as
the chief cornerstone. In Him the whole building is joined together and
rises to become a holy Temple in Yahweh. And in him you too are
being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His
Spirit.”
· How does the Spirit of
Antichrist attack Yahshua’s Fulfillment of the Lamb Branch Prophecy?
o
The
Spirit of Antichrist is behind the teaching that the animal sacrifices need to
be reinstated… There are two reasons
that Judaism cites for why to build a third temple… 1) worship of Yahweh; 2) reinstate the animal
sacrifices…
·
Yahshua was the perfect Sacrifice (ended all
blood) “He taketh away the first” (animal blood), that He may establish the
Second (Yahshua’s Blood)”, Hebrews 10:9
o
Animal offerings, in Hebrews 10 are shown to be
the “shadow” not the end point. The end point – the real payment for sin – was
always Yahshua’s Blood. His Sacrifice is called “perfect”
§
Perfect means “completed”… There are three Greek words behind the one
word “perfect” in English… The article
that accompanies it in Greek is “the”…
So Yahshua’s offering is not A Sacrifice, but THE Sacrifice. And it is
not A completion of Sacrifices, but THE completion of Sacrifices. The third
word that appears in Greek means “to come near”… So, because of His Offering, the separation
between sinful man and holy God is removed… This was the whole point of
Redemption – was the restore man to Yahweh’s Presence – and that work was
Complete (from Yahweh’s Side) at Calvary
·
Yahshua built the perfect Tabernacle – Hebrews
9:11 “the more perfect Tabernacle was not made with hands.”
o What
about the Ezekiel Temple Prophecy?
§
This Temple has never been built… It is massive in scale according to the
dimensions given by Ezekiel…
§
The Ezekiel Temple doesn’t have a laver… Messiah’s Throne was supposed to be in the
Most Holy Place – and a River of the Water of Life would have flowed out from
that Throne.
§
The Ezekiel Temple was supposed to be the one
that Messiah came to.
§
There were animal sacrifices mentioned in
Ezekiel that were to be offered in this Temple…
Had this temple been the one Messiah came to, indeed there would have
been animal sacrifices, righteously performed in it… But, in 28 AD, when Messiah died, the
sacrifices in the Ezekiel Temple would have righteously ceased.
This Temple cannot now be built, by the side of Yahweh… Because of sin… Judah became idolatrous and caused this great
Temple prophecy to fail.
·
Believers think that if a prophecy is from
Yahweh, it cannot fail… 1 Corinthians 13:8 says that prophecies can fail, but
love never fails… Is this true prophecy?
·
The Prophecy of Ninevah’s Destruction was
from God and it failed – because the people repented!
o
Jonah was a prophet of Yahweh, and under the
unction of Yahweh’s direction, he told Ninevah that it would be destroyed in 40
days… and Jonah sat outside the city, waiting for lightning and fireballs… It didn’t happen!!! - Jonah 4:2 tells us that Jonah knew from the
get go that Yahweh might cause the prophecy to fail, because of His Mercy. If
Ninevah repented, Ninevah wouldn’t be destroyed.
· The
Prophecy of the Ezekiel Temple (which was supposed to be present in Messiah’s
Day) failed – because the people rebelled!
· Daniel
9:24-26 tells us that Jerusalem (the literal holy city) would cease from being
the holy city, at the end of the 70 weeks.
o
Regarding Jerusalem’s role as the Holy City - a
title which it received because it held the holy Temple of God – Yahshua gave a
powerful warning. This prophecy is one of the most ignored Bible prophecies of
all. Yet it was never more vitally important than it is now. Yahshua Himself
said that Jerusalem’s “House” (Temple) was left unto it “desolate” (Abomination
of Desolation).
§ Matthew 23:37-38 - “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem... how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens ...and ye would not! Behold, your House is left unto you desolate.”
How does the Spirit of Antichrist attack Yahshua’s Fulfillment of the Son of Man Branch Prophecy?
o The Spirit of Antichrist is behind the teaching (or doctrine) that Yahshua didn’t build the Temple of Yahweh, and thus did not fulfill Zechariah 6:12.
o Antichrist is the one who is going to build a literal temple –
§ 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
