How high has their highest levels reached?
When people who profess to be the children of God rebel and turn their backs on the Lord God and disobey his teachings, they are usually punished as the children of Israel were. We were and still are a rebellious bunch! Are we getting our just desserts as a nation due to slackness and just letting liberalism go to far? (See “Liberalism” in the main menu.) Spare the rod, spoil the child. (Proverbs 13:24) Have we made and payed for the rod of our own chastisement?

The Seven Times Prophecy
This prophecy is found in Leviticus 26 and the seven times are mentioned four times. (Lev. 26:18, 21, 24, 28) There are seven churches, seals, trumpets, and plagues in Revelation. [Lev. 7777 to Rev. 7777] Leviticus 26 discusses the promise of blessings for the children of Israel if they keep the commandments of God and walk in his statutes. The Lord warned them of the withholding of blessings and the terror and sorrow they would experience if they would not keep all his commandments. The seven times is a period that the promise of blessings would be withheld as well as the intensity of judgments for their disobedience. The blessings and promises given to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and then passed to his sons were also a prophecy for their future generations. The two key aspects became separate covenants: the national birthright blessing of prosperity to the two sons of Joseph, and the sceptre promise that included sovereign kingship over the Promised Land to Judah. (Genesis 48-49)
The blessings and promises began with Abraham in Genesis 12, and then passed on to Isaac, then Jacob, then Judah and the two sons of Joseph. The national prosperity birthright blessings were passed to Ephraim and Manasseh, the two sons of Joseph. Both lads were given Israel’s name. Jacob adopted them as if his own. Ephraim would become a multitude of nations and was set before his older brother, Manasseh, who would become a separate great nation. Together, they would become the stone (builder) and the glory (magnificence) of Israel. (Gen. 49:24; Duet. 33:17) The sceptre promise shall not depart from Judah. (Gen. 49:10) Genesis 49:1-28 is a prophecy for all the children of Israel as to what form of nationality their descendants would become in the latter days.
From Lev. 26, you follow the history of Israel to the time of King Solomon when he sinned and turned from the Lord. The Prophet Ahijah tells Jeroboam that God will take the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and give him ten of the tribes. (1 Kings 11:29-32) The Kingdom of Israel became two separate nations, kingdoms, or houses. The sins of Solomon, his death, and the division of the kingdom are found in 1 Kings 11 and 12. From this point you follow the histories of the northern and southern kingdoms in the remainder of the Kings and Chronicles, as well as Ezra and the other Prophets.
The northern kingdom (House of Israel) turned away from God, and their nation was destroyed in 722 BC. The remaining people of the ten northern tribes were taken captive by the King of Assyria into the land of Assyria. (2 Kings 17) In 609 BC Assyria was defeated and divided by Nabolpolassar, King of Babylon. Many Assyrians and most if not all the remnant of the northern ten tribes fled, thus beginning their migrations northward and westward. The descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh with their national birthright were among them. They became known as The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.
Whether deserved or not, God keeps all his promises! They were made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel). Ephraim did not become a company of nations and Manasseh did not become a separate great nation in the Old Testament Bible. These promises were withheld for seven times or 2520 years. [360 × 7 = 2520] and [2520 yrs − 722 BC = 1798 AD] England continued expanding its global colonization. The British Commonwealth is a company of nations. The United States had recently won its independence from its older brother and established its Constitutional Republic. Eli Whitney had just invented mass production and Robert Fulton the steam engine. The industrial revolution was well underway.
When reading the books of prophecy in the Bible, the House of Israel refers to the United States, Great Britain, and the other eight lost tribes. The House of Joseph refers to the United States and Great Britain. (Amos 5:6,15, 6:6; Obad. 18; Zech. 10:6; Ezek. 37:16,19, 47:13; Ps. 80) The other eight lost tribes of Israel are: Reuben – Netherlands, Simeon with Levi – Spain with Portugal, Gad – Finland, Zebulun – Norway, Issachar – Sweden, Asher – Belgium, Naphtali – France, and Dan – Denmark. (Gen. 49; Deut. 33) Benjamin is a part of The House of Judah. (1 Kings 12:2124) Out of the lost ten tribes, only the United States has not joined the European Union. Will the US lose its superpower status to the EU? Could the Euro replace the dollar as the global dominate currency? A numerical significance in prophecy is linking the lost ten tribes to the ten toes, horns, and ten kingdoms with the breaking of the Ten Commandments. (Dan. 2 & 7; Rev. 13 & 17)
The southern kingdom (House of Judah) also turned from God and was punished for seven times. The Jews did not lose their identity but lost the sovereignty and kingship over their land when King Jehoiachin surrendered to King Nebuchadnezzar (606-562 BC) and was carried away in captivity to Babylon in 598 BC. (2 Kings 24:8-12) This ended the independent Kingdom of Judah and the sovereign control of the land by the Jews. Adding 2520 years to 598 BC we come to 1922 AD. The League of Nations (now United Nations) made Palestine a British Mandate to set up a homeland for the Jews in 1922. It followed the Balfour Declaration of 1917 by Great Britain supporting a Jewish National Homeland. The British were harsh in their implementation of the mandate. The Jews began fighting the Arabs around 1947 and in 1948 the mandate ended. The Jewish leaders proclaimed the State of Israel with David Ben Gurion as their first Prime Minister. [The movie “Cast a Giant Shadow” starring Kirk Douglas and John Wayne was based on this period in history. Douglas played the American Jewish Colonel who went to Israel to help the Israelis. It was a great movie!]
When reading the books of prophecy in the Bible, the House of Judah refers to the StateofIsrael. All Jews are Israelites, but all Israelites are not Jews. All New Yorkers are Americans, but are all Americans New Yorkers? Also, the twelve tribes intermarried among themselves and other nationalities. (Gen. 38; Num. 12; Ruth 1-4; 1Sam. 17:12; Is. 11) [Moses’ wife was Ethiopian. Read the book of Numbers chapter 12.]
The Nations that arose from the descendants of The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel, and the State of Israel did not happen overnight. (Is. 66:8) Neither did the national wealth and prosperity blessings of Ephraim and Manasseh come about in a single day. The State of Israel was in the making over the course of 31 years (1917 − 1948). [In God time that would be 31 yr ÷ 1000 yr × 24 hr/day = .744 hr] The entire House of Israel will be reunited at the return of Jesus Christ. (Ezek. 37:16-22) The flags of the United States, Great Britain, and Israel that are sewn together and burned by angry Arabs are a prelude to the fulfillment of that prophecy. (Ps. 83; Gen. 16:1-12)
The United States and Great Britain (Joseph) may succeed in their efforts to get Israel (Judah) to give up the West Bank, Gaza, divide East Jerusalem, and establish a Palestinian State. It was Judah’s idea to not kill but sell Joseph to the Ishmaelite (Arab) traders. Arabs are the descendants of Ishmael. Most Persians (Iranians) are also the descendants of Abraham Is Joseph about to sell out Judah? (Gen. 17:20, 25:1-6, 37:18-28; Is. 3:1-9; Zech. 12:1-6; Luke 21:22; Ezek. 16:53)
Ezekiel visited the Israelites after the Northern Kingdom Israel fell in 722 BC. When Nabopolassar, Nebuchadnezzar’s father, conquered Assyria in 612 BC, the Israelite captives along with many Assyrians fled north and west. Many were among and became members of the Barbarian tribes that sacked Rome beginning with the Visigoths in 410 AD. The Saxons are thought to have got their name from “Sons of Isaac”.

Ezekiel 38
KJV(i) 1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, 3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: 4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords: 5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: 6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee. 7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou [Gog] shalt be visited: in the latter years thou [Gog] shalt come into the land that is brought back from [by, with] the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains [nations] of Israel [Northern Kingdom – lost ten tribes of Israel and their latter day nations], which have been always [continually] waste [desolate > see definition below]: but it [a nation with Israel’s name Gen. 48:16] is brought forth [come from abroad] out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely {click both to see importance} all of them. 9 Thou [Gog] shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou [Gog] shalt be like a cloud [acting convertly] to cover [in concealment] the land, thou [Gog], and all thy bands, and many people [as congregated units of businessmen, scientists, teachers, spys, agents etc.] with thee.
desolate: 1. Destitute of inhabitants, dwellings,, etc.; laid wasre; deserted;abandonded. 2. Lonely; solitary. 3. Without friends; forlorn; sorrowful; afflicted; gloomy. See sunonyms under bleak, sad. (desolated, desolating) 1. to deprive of inhabitants. 2. To lay waste, devastate. 3. Tomake sorrowful, wretched, or forelorn. 4. To forsake; abandon. [Funk and Wagnalls Standard Dictionary of the English Language, International Edition, 1974]
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy [Gog’s] mind, and thou [Gog] shalt think an evil thought: 11 And thou [Gog] shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, 12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land. 13 Sheba [Ethiopia], and Dedan [Southern Arabia], and the merchants of Tarshish [See Note:], with [See root word – associate.] all the young lions [See root word. What walled village is also an independent state?] thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
[Note: Tarshish (Tyre) was the global center of shipping and trade in the Old Testament times. See Isaiah 23. King Solomon bought much material from King Hiram of Tyre to build the first Temple. Kings 5 thru 9.]
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it? 15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses [Rapid flight – jetliners], a great company, and a mighty army: 16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them? 18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my face. 19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land(s) of Israel [His posterity.]; 20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains [nations] shall be thrown down, and the steep [high] places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains [nations], saith the Lord GOD: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. 22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. 23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
The infiltration of the CCP into American leadership
From the article above:
The infiltration of American political and economic leadership during the past three decades helps explain what happened. It goes beyond issues like devaluing currency and intellectual property theft. In late November 2020, Chinese professor Di Dongsheng was filmed speaking about the infiltration and influence of China from 1992 until 2016. Di asked, “Why did China and the U.S. use to be able to settle all kinds of issues between 1992 and 2016?” then answered his own question with a bombshell admission: “I’m going to throw out something maybe a little bit explosive here. It’s just because we have people at the top. We have our old friends who are at the top of America’s core inner circle of power and influence.” Di noted the lack of Chinese influence during the Trump administration but said, “We’re seeing Biden was elected, the traditional elite, the political elite, the establishment, they’re very close to Wall Street, so you see that, right?”…
Beyond politics and economics, it’s important to understand the primary influence of the CCP in cultural corruption. It potentially explains why CCP is majority shareholder in companies like Disney. Father Cuthbert O’Gara, a Catholic bishop imprisoned by the Communist Chinese for missionary activities in 1951, describes CCP indoctrination: “Now, what, I ask, was the first lesson given to the indoctrinees? One might have supposed that this would have been some pearl of wisdom let drop by Marx, Lenin or Stalin. Such, however, was not the case. The very first, the fundamental, lesson given was man’s descent from the ape — Darwinism! This naturally shocked the Christians,” he went on to explain. “I knew very well that the primary purpose of the Peoples’ Government in Peking was to extirpate all religious belief and practice from China.” The slogan of O’Grady’s prison camp was “Bring your mind over to us, and all your troubles will end.”
America is at a crossroads with the CCP. We have previously ignored the infiltration, while pretending we were the influencers. It’s time to face the truth and regain and our national sovereignty — while we still have time.

How China is buying up America’s food supply
From the article above:
A Sioux Falls meatpacking plant was forced to close when it became the epicenter of COVID-19 in South Dakota. Three weeks after executives from its Chinese owner, WH Group, visited the plant, a month after President Trump’s ban on travel from China, nearly 600 of Smithfield Foods’ 3,700 employees tested positive for the virus, as have 135 additional people in close contact with employees.
Smithfield Foods was started in 1936 by a family in Virginia. Today, the Chinese own Armour and the famous Smithfield hams, together with the most quintessential American brand of all: Nathan’s Famous hot dogs, with its iconic annual eating contest.
In 2013, Smithfield Foods was bought by the Shanghui Group, later rebranded as the WH Group, for $4.7 billion. It remains the largest total acquisition of a U.S. company by the Chinese. With that purchase, the Chinese owned one in four pigs raised in the U.S. and, by adding 146,000 acres, continued to be the world’s largest buyer of American farmland….
Reporter Warns of CCP Infiltration of US Agriculture and Farmers
From the article above:
The Chinese Communist Party is expanding its efforts to buy up America’s farmland. The CCP infiltrates everything in the US that’s important. For example, journalists receive paid trips to China. Then they write favorable articles about China when they get home. Several NY Times staffers worked for the CCP propaganda outfit – China Daily. These same staffers have been apologists for the CCP and have praised President Xi….
Chinese Infiltration in US Reaches ‘Extreme’ Levels, Says Security Expert
From the article above:
Tens of thousands of foreign operatives have already infiltrated the United States to “extreme” levels, an intelligence and cybersecurity think tank has warned.
BlackOps Partners, which enhances intelligence and protective cyber, organizational, and legal practices around the world, estimates there could be at least 50,000 Chinese spies operating in the United States, with significantly more in the education sector.
“There are a minimum of 50,000 Chinese Communist Party (CCP) spies at U.S. companies, government agencies, and U.S. military. This particular nation-state ‘insider threat’ does not include those employees who have been blackmailed and ‘turned’. It is to the level of extreme infiltration,” BlackOps CEO Casey Fleming said….
50 Times More Spies Than First Thought
The revelation comes more than a decade after Chen Yonglin, a former first secretary at Sydney’s Chinese Consulate in Australia, claimed in 2005 there were at least 1,000 Chinese spies in the United States monitoring Tibetans, Uighurs, Falun Dafa practitioners, and other dissidents.
The latest figure suggests the number of Chinese spies is at least 50 times higher than previously thought.
According to Fleming, many Chinese operatives are recruited through CCP-funded “United Front” organizations that target patriotic members of the Chinese expat community to help expand the CCP’s global influence….
How the CCP Infiltrates American Universities
From the article above:
Between 2014 and 2019, Chinese state-owned entities donated at least $315 million to U.S. universities, the Washington Free Beacon found in a recent report. This included an astounding $88 million coming from Chinese contractors and universities that assist the Chinese military in defense research. Approximately 1,000 donations recorded in a Department of Education database revealed that almost 200 CCP-affiliated donors gave to “dozens” of American universities, the Beacon found.
This follows discoveries in December of Columbia University accepting $1 million to set up a Confucius Institute, and in August of University of Pennsylvania accepting a $3 million donation from a shell company in Hong Kong, owned by Shanghai businessman Xu Xeuqing, who has close business ties with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)….
And now, the icing on the cake!
Influence from the highest levels!?!?

The Ezekiel 33 Watchman Report 
You are a wealth of information via the Holy Spirit. I learned so much from this post, and at the same time had many things confirmed. I really like how you put together where the united states are in scripture, as I have talked to people who say the states are no where in the bible. “When reading the books of prophecy in the Bible, the House of Israel refers to the United States, Great Britain, and the other eight lost tribes. The House of Joseph refers to the United States and Great Britain. (Amos 5:6,15, 6:6; Obad. 18; Zech. 10:6; Ezek. 37:16,19, 47:13; Ps. 80)Praise God for His infinite wisdom! Many blessings Always.
