Survival food replication in the Scriptures from the desk of Kenneth W. Lent, August 2, 2010 www.solarsabbath.org Is supernatural food replication in store for the Elect Remnant of Christ during the prophetic coming worldwide judgment? There exists a distinct Scriptural probability that this will yet be experienced out of necessity before the age comes to an end considering Christ's words: "And except that Yahweh had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom He hath chosen, He hath shortened the days." (Mark 13:20) Needless to say, some trying times are ahead. Will those who have presently been made aware of the "leaven" (evil doctrine) of the "Pharisees and of the Sadducees" (aka Judaic control of society) be physically sustained with a survival food supply by a supernatural replication and multiplication of their relatively scant amount of food which they have secured? Let's see where the Scriptures point. First of all, may I suggest that the reader persevere with physical survival skills and preparedness for the days ahead? I can not stress this enough even though few seem to grasp the importance of it. Our actions prove our faith. Noah did not survive the Flood without first physically doing some serious nail pounding into the planks of the ark for 120 years even though he and his family were miraculously saved. Neither were Joseph's people able to eat during a famine without an entire nation manually working to store up food for seven years in Egypt. Those who hope to be sustained miraculously during a famine by divine intervention/and or guidance, better be making the good faith effort to be accounted worthy in the first place. This means making a concerted "Noahic" directive to be spiritually, mentally, and physically prepared to meet the coming challenge of a world wide economic breakdown. "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." (Luke 21:36) Remember that our "faith" is a work of faith. "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone." ( James 2:17) Likewise, remember too that the work of faith is with power. "Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:" (2 Thessalonians 1:11) A question of survival in times of pending disaster may then proceed as follows -"What power is more impossible - resurrection from the dead - or a replication of food?" Surely if a Christian believes in one then he belives in the other and all works of God's power as well. "Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?" (Acts 26:8) -- or replicate food for that matter. Is it more impossible for those today who have become aware of the corruption of "Pharisaic leaven" to believe in resurrection, or in food replication at God's appointed times? Quite applicable to our present dilemma, our King reminds those whom He has taught about Pharisaic trickery, that He not only can raise the dead, but that He both can and will replicate needed food, just as He had done before by multiplying a few baskets of food into many. Matthew 16:5 "And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread". 6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. 7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread. 8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread? 9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? 11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? 12 Then understood they how that He bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees." The Scriptures are strangely deliberate here in connecting the story of Christ's food multiplication with a personal condition of becoming aware of the Pharisaic leaven of social corruption. Why should this be? And just who is it today that "knows about the Jews" and their social and economic doctrines that spread like leavening? Answer: Saxon Christians who are aware of the Israel Kingdom message and know that they are the true Israelites. In dealing with these last days near the closing of this age, the Scriptures tell us that the ministry which will return to instruct the faithful believers is the ministry of Elijah. This prophetic end time "Elijah ministry" is one that re-connects the ancestors of Saxon Israel to that of the present Christian household of God, in other words, it is a heritage ministry which tells us today that "modern white Saxon Christians are the Israelites of the Old Testament Scriptures". WE are the children of the race and they our fathers. "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of Yahweh: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." (Malachi 4:5,6) This means that true Israel, Saxon Christians, who have been told by the lying church clergy that we are only "non Israel Gentiles", would find out that we are in fact the true racial Israelites, God's sons, as we see this mentioned in Hosea: "Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God ." Hosea 1:10 This has been fulfilled with the latter day "Elijah ministry" (the Saxon Israel Kingdom truth, some call "Christian Identity") which is presently exploding all across America and the other white Christian nations of the world, just as predicted by Hosea the prophet. What does this have to do with food replication as a survival tool for the Remnant in Christ today? Everything, because it is within the scope of the Elijah ministry that we find that particular power manifested in emergency situations. James the apostle tells us that it is not just Elijah that was gifted to do the impossible when needed, but that we of the body of Christ partake of the Elijah ministry as well and that we must pray for results as did Elijah himself. (James 5:16,17) Not only were healings found within Elijah's prayers, but food multiplication was as well. As Elijah traveled to Zarephath (I Kings 17) he asked a widow to make cakes for him when she had only a famine amount remaining, the end resulting in a production of food replication for her needs: "13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. 14 For thus saith Yahweh God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that Yahweh sendeth rain upon the earth. 15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. 16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of Yahweh, which He spake by Elijah." Later we see the prophet Elisha, who had a double portion of Elijah's spirit (II Kings 2:9,15), also sustain a widow by miraculous food oil replication on a grand scale.(II Kings 4). This also gives a new meaning to the famous Psalm of King David where he gave glory to Yahweh for sustenance of provision in times when David was faced with a determined foe: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over." (Psalm 23:4,5) Although we may have never realized it, there is no reason to take this testimony of David in less than a literal understanding -- Yahweh Himself (directly or indirectly) prepared David's table for provision as David walked through the shadow of death amidst his enemies. If King David counted upon Yahweh for this happening, do we dare claim to have no need of the same and depend only upon ourselves? In closing, one point should be made clear about food replication being experienced among God's people again. It appears quite evident that Yahweh is not going to "put an egg in your beer" with respect to all of this. If you don't do your part - don't expect Yahweh to do His part. A Remnant survivalist is scripturally expected to have something left of his own provision TO BRING before Yahweh that it may be multiplied. Those who have run to a State food line because of having been so unprepared that they have nothing at all, have cast their lot with the unfaithful and will be outside the parameter of divine protection. Even if one does not do much in the way of anticipated trials, do something and have at least something remaining as a token of your work of faith. "And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son." (I Kings 17:13) "And they say unto Him (Jesus), We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. He said, Bring them hither to me. And He commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, He blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to His disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full. And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children". (Matthew 14:17-19) Be prepared. You bring nothing, you get nothing. We are admonished scripturally to be as ready as possible. If what we do is not enough then Jesus will step in to do the rest. This article may not hit home to many right now, or possibly may seem beyond the scope of need or "reality' because Americans' belief for the most part has been in their own abundance of goods. But keep this supposed "impossible idea" filed for the future when the waistline belt gets down to the last notch. A real emergency can change a lot of things, including a person's belief system. The accounts of food replication in the Scriptures are there for a reason, and a deeper study might make for a very interesting application of faith. For now - just store this info and consider it a seed to hold. Blessings to the Remnant, Ken Lent at www.solarsabbath.org |
