In Despatch since late `97 & Despatch 95 & Despatch 96, we have sought to do a rather unpopular thing, with some people anyway. That is, to seek to warn Christians of the rise of a neo-Judaising of the Christian Church in the 1990s, and the fulfilment of Biblical prophecy in regard to the apostasy coming which entails Israel!

This move of Judaising has become strong in fundamentalist circles, as well as in Charismatic, Evangelical and Pentecostal circles. Some of the charac-teristics of this rapidly growing movement are: keeping Jewish Feasts; going back to the Mosaic law; keeping the Sabbath day on a Saturday; obeying O. T. dietary require ments meant for the Jews; re-writing the Scriptures to make the New Testament more Hebrew; insisting that Israel is the `root' and therefore the `leading people' in the Christian Church; calling Jesus Christ “Y’shua” - and much more. We have been alarmed at the strangeness of this Hebrew/Israel emphasis, especially after viewing on video the Messianic Jew, Dick Reubens, in action at Brownsville, the starting place of the Pensacola “revival” (see Despatch, December, 1997, edition for more). The Christian investigator, Linda Sellers, from the USA, has sent Endtime Ministries quite stunning documentation pertaining to this subject, which confirms our apprehension!

THE HEBREW MOVEMENT.

A strange “prophecy” is the first document from Linda. From Open Church Ministries, written by Dean Cozzens, Dec. 1997. We will deal with this first. I will quote, and then comment. Writes Cozzens: “On Sunday morning, April 13, 1986, I heard the following prophecy” (Despatch: this shows the man is going by extra-biblical revelation, instead of the Bible’s prophecy).

Cozzens: “At the beginning of the twentieth century, when God looked down from heaven at the church, what he saw looked like a giant 747 airliner, but with no engines. He then set out to attach giant engines of faith and power to the body of the plane, so that the church would have the power to come to Him where He is, up in realms of glory. Each of these four engines represents one of the four major moves of God’s Spirit ordained for this century:

1) The PENTECOSTAL MOVEMENT,
2)The FAITH-HEALING MOVEMENT,
3) The CHARISMATIC MOVEMENT,
4) The HEBREW MOVEMENT.

Though many of the right doctrines have been in place in the Body of Christ, from all of the past moves of God’s restoration through history, much is still missing, which God wants to restore. This fourth movement is to be called ‘The Hebrew Movement.’ This movement will to some degree ENCOMPASS AND INFLUENCE the ENTIRE BODY OF CHRIST, adding depth, and leading us into greater UNITY at last, not just with one another, but with God and his Word.” (End of quote from Cozzens).

DESPATCH comments:
In this so-called “prophecy” the Pentecostal leader, Dean Cozzens, reveals that “God” showed Him the future. The three major apostate movements of this century: The Pentecostal Movement (early beginnings contained a lot which was sound), The Faith-Healing Movement, The Charismatic Movement - and then Cozzens sums up the “final engine”, the fourth movement, as being The Hebrew Movement! It seems that the spirits who are deceiving this man have given him knowledge of the present move of Judaising Christendom, which he sees as “encompass[ing]” and “influenc-[ing]” the entire Body of Christ, which will bring more “unity”. This is a “major move” the fake prophecy says. I was shocked by this paper of Cozzens, for this is exactly what seems to be befalling Christendom, as we race toward AD 2000. Christendom is becoming Jewish, with the emphasis going away from the finished work of Christ, and Jesus Christ as All in All, back into the Old Testament Jewish Law, even having sacrifices instead of seeing Jesus Christ as the One and Only sacrifice needed.

The book of Hebrews tells it all, we urge our readers to study afresh this book - to the HEBREWS. In it God says something like seven times that in Christ Jesus there is a “BETTER” Way than the former Old Testament Hebrew/Israeli covenant. See how the book to the Hebrews opens:

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;” (V.v.1,2). Jesus Christ is “better than” the Old Testament prophets, He is the Son of God come to the earth. See Hebrews chapters 9-10 and see how much better Jesus Christ is than the Hebrew/Israeli dispensation.

WHAT DOES COZZENS SAY
THE HEBREW MOVEMENT WILL ACCOMPLISH?

“This fourth major move (the Hebrew) of the Holy Spirit in this century will be every bit as powerful as the previous three, and will bring this final work of God to completion in a final, unified, four-fold thrust of power and glory; it will take us all into the heavenlies to be with Him where He is....Then God’s awesome power will fill us with the same awesome glory which is His eternally wonderful presence. On that great day, every gift of the Spirit will be operating in great release, and the Lord will be revealed in all His fullness. We will then be like Him, full of His power and glory, for we shall see Him as He truly is, unveiled for all to see.”

THE MOVE AWAY FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT,
IN THE GREEK LANGUAGE.

Writes Cozzens:

“I believe that right now, God is saying, ‘Turn and align your thinking more perfectly down My revealed runway of Hebrew thought, the thoughts I REVEALED THROUGH THE HEBREW PEOPLE, AND LET’S GET READY TO GO TO GLORY!’

... We’ll leave on the same runway Jesus landed on - Old Testament Hebrew revelations and prophecies, and Hebrew ways of thinking and living. That’s who God revealed Himself to be, and Who Jesus also showed Himself to be when He lived here on this planet in the flesh.”

Cozzens again:

“Many errors were incorporated into the early church in order to please and accommodate Greek culture, and to escape anti-Hebrew persecutions from the Romans. These early corruptions are what we mean by the Hebrew-to-Greek shift. The correction of this past mistake is the turning of that great airliner in what is called the Greek-to-Hebrew shift, to the Hebrew Movement. It is what God now expects from us before He more fully empowers us, and thrusts us into His glory. It’s what we need to do to make Him more comfortable about openly identifying Himself with us in His full approval of glory and power.”

Cozzens goes on to mangle the meaning of Matt.5:17-20 and writes this:

“It’s almost as if Jesus were predicting (in Matt.5:17-20), though certainly not approving what eventually did happen in the church when it left its Hebrew roots. He may have even been predicting the very Hebrew Movement which will now wrap up the church age. This verse says that unless we connect the move of the Spirit which Jesus brought, with the Hebrew which He Himself was walking in, then we as the church, and as individuals will not be ready for lift-off into the kingdom of heaven. We have to align with Him.” DESPATCH comment: The Church went on into the New Testament doctrines and Life in Christ because GOD gave a higher revelation in His Son, because we were no longer under the old covenant. Matt.5:17-20 was written before Jesus Christ fulfilled all the Law in our place, by living a totally righteous life according to the Law, and by dying for us according to Law. The Law if broken demanded spiritual death, Jesus Christ took our punishment according to Law. In Matthew 5 Jesus Christ was talking to the old dispensation Jews, who had not come into the blessings of the Christian Church (Galatians 5:1): “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage (the Law).” “For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.” (Philippians 3:1-11, read all of this). “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree.” (Galatians 3:13).

“The church has now come full circle. All that has gone before, from the Reformation until this very minute, has been God’s cautious and persistent work to get us back to the fuller understanding of Who Jesus was. It is now time for the fuller revelation of Who God and Jesus really are. He is saying, ‘I want you connected to the Old Testament root, but in the fullness and power of the Holy Spirit, so that you can keep the Law as I kept it, in the same Spirit in which it was given, in redemptive love and power.’ We MUST MOVE BACK to the centerline of God’s truth, with the power of the Holy Spirit.”

cument that was sent from the USA BY Linda Sellers was a photostatted portion of the “BLOODLINE OF THE HOLY GRAIL”, by Laurence Gardner.

A Masonic/ Illuminati book written about the bogus “Hidden Lineage” of Jesus. In this evil book the New Age version of the Ten Commandments is shown, an esoteric, Jewish kind of occult “mystery”. The New Age is making much of the so-called “Noahide Laws”, which are supposed to be Biblical. Could we eventually see a form of esoteric “Commandments”, very Hebrew in nature, which join and complement the Noahide Laws? A counterfeit religious Rule of Life for the New Millennium of the Aquarians? There is every indication in Biblical prophecy that Israel will be the centre of the religious/political rule of the Antichrist, in the Tribulation period. Fake Hebrew “laws” then would be right in character with such a dictatorship. From “Bloodline of the Holy Grail”, p.p.257-260, We caution the reader that this is occult material, none of it should be accepted as correct:

“The Secrets of the Ark. Deep beneath the Jerusalem Temple site was the great stable of King Solomon, which had reImagesed sealed and untouched since Biblical times. The enormous underground shelter was described by a Crusader as ‘a stable of such marvellous capacity and extent that it could hold more than 2,000 horses’. To find and open up this capacious store-room was the original secret mission of the Knights Templars, for it was known by St Bernard to contain the Ark of the Covenant which in turn, held the greatest of all treasures - the TABLES OF TESTIMONY. (Despatch comment, maybe the Noahide Laws? We publish a booklet re these Laws, called "Which Law? What Law?" see p. 51).

...Inscribed on them were the Tables of Testimony - the Cosmic equation: the divine law of number, measure and weight. The mystical art of reading the inscriptions was achieved by the cryptic system of the Cabbala.

...There was a positive distinction made between the ‘Tables of Testimony’, written by God, and the ‘Ten Commandments’, which were separately written by Moses. For centuries the Church has implied that the Covenant of the Ten Commandments was the important part of this package, in consequence of which the truly important Tables of Testimony have been strategically ignored.

... Undoubtedly, the Ark and the Tables were the prized possessions of Jerusalem - but when Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the Temple (in around 586 BC), neither was listed in the schedule of plunder.

...The age-old cult of Mary Magdalene, the embodiment of the Pistis Sophia, reImagess fully central to the theme, and the beautiful Magdalene window at Chartres has an inscription which reads ‘Donated by the Water-carriers’ the Aquarians. Mary was the bearer of the Holy Grail, and she will undoubtedly become ever more prominent as the great new ‘Inspiration’ of the Aquarian Age - the age of renewed intellect, wisdom and the UNIVERSAL LAW of the ARK.”
