I'm careful in how I'm saying it now, because I know that people in Kenya are listening. I know deep in my soul something supernatural is going to happen in Nairobi, Kenya. I feel that. I may very well come back - and you and Jan are coming. Paul and Jan are coming to Nairobi with me - But Paul we may very well come back with footage of Jesus on the platform.

Rose, Mike, Kalivas's Six Points Refuted


by Mike Rose, Ch.D.





In examining Pete Peters' Internet site, in his links section, a link was found at
ftp://ftp.netcom.pub/lj/lja/OTHERS, which lead to a site where we discovered a
blasphemous, false and utterly ludicrous statement on the Book of Revelation written by Bruggeman's
protégés, Sandy and Bill Kalivas. The article was entitled "Six Points Refuting the Early Writing of
Revelation." Kalivas has associations not only with the antichrists Bruggeman and Peters but Barley as
well, in addition to the Jews and Jewphiles at New Beginnings and Destiny Publishers, whose books
they cite as references. Therefore, this woman and her effeminate lackeys are all convicted to be utter
antichrists by the blasphemous statement published on the Internet about the Book of Revelation (See
Separatist Brief Who is the Antichrist?at http://www.christianseparatist.org/briefs/sb3.12.html). For if
this group of phonies are not espousing Jewish premillennialism under the guise of historicism or
hysterectomy or whatever they call it, then they are promoting the other end of the stick, the falsehoods
of Judeo preterism and totally ignoring the clear teachings of theistic preterism even though they have
been told the truth.
The article almost immediately opens with the statement that the first verse of the first chapter of the
Book ofRevelation does not really mean what it says, and they twist the Scripture to their own
damnation. Thus they begin by calling God a liar. Sandy and Bill write regarding the so-called
"historicist" viewpoint of eschatology, which they adhere to:

"The term in Rev. 1:1, 'shortly come to pass', means simply the prophecies in the book will
soon begin to happen, not 'shortly be fulfilled', as some would have the phrase mean."

Not only is the Kalivases' disbelief and disrespect of the Word of God evident in this statement,
but their astounding stupidity and willful ignorance is as well. For a man to say that the Bible does not
mean what it says is to openly declare that he believes God is a liar. What else could the phrase,
"things must shortly come to pass" mean except that the things about which John was writing were to
shortly come to pass? And remember, he was writing to a specific circle of people, not to someone
2,000 years down the road, except by way of example and principle. If the writer of the New
Testament, the Holy Spirit, had meant to say that the things in the Book of Revelation were going to
beginto come to pass, He would have said so. For even further clarification of this verse, let us go to
the Anointed Standard Translation, a literal translation from the Greek. The AST literally translates the
Greek here as: "A revelation of Jesus Anointed, which God gave to Him to show to His
slaves things which must occur with speed"(Rev. 1:1 AST). This means that the entire Book
of Revelation was to witness to things which were to occur with speed. This means everything in the
Book must happen speedily, not that some things were to begin happening soon, some were to be
completed, some were to not happen at all for 2,000 years, etc. Let us remember that the Apocalypse
was written to a specific people, or as Christ said, to that generation, for their understanding,
otherwise it would have had no meaning for them. While we are at it, let the Kalivases' bring forth
their Greek authorities and lexicographers who would dare discredit themselves by agreeing with such
a stupid contention so as to twist the language of the Bible to make it mean something that God never
intended. These Kalivases' offer no such evidence because no reputable scholar who knows anything
about the specific Greek language would dare say something so stupid. But more on this point a little
later.
The fact that all things were to happen and be fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, including
the prophecies of Revelation, is evidenced throughout the Bible, but at the time of the writing of the
Book of Revelation, Jesus' prophecies of warning on the Mount of Olives (Matthew 24) were still to
be fulfilled. Therefore, through John, the Holy Spirit, meaning Jesus Christ Himself, in His
manifestation as the Comforter, wrote the Book of Revelation to provide further predictions of the
future that would prove Jesus was Who He said He was and also to remind those living at the time that
they must stay alert because all things were going to be completed, and the final prophecies were going
"to occur with speed." If Jesus' prophecies hadnot come true, then we would have no proof or
credentials to believe He was God in the flesh. However, because we Christian Separatists can see that
all things happened the way Jesus said they would, we have no problem accepting His credentials and
believing everything else He ever said. Therefore, we believe Him and the Bible statement that "things
must occur with speed." Besides this simple statement, there are many more in the New Testament
which plainly state that all things would be fulfilled at that time, particularly Matthew 24:34, which
states:

"Truly I say to you, In no way will this generation pass away until all these
things have occurred" (AST).

Be sure and notice the past tense of the statement. Do these Kalivases want to argue the Greek
there? Or maybe Pete Peters doesn't see it that way either. Bruggeman has manifested himself to be so
insane and stupid, if not Jewish, that his opinion is worthless. Here Jesus was speaking of all His
predictions about the Day of Vindication or the Lord's Day, which were to be to completed before that
generation could pass away, which were repeated and expanded upon in Revelation. Now, how may
we expect Bill and Sandy Kalivas to twist this clear and precise statement of Jesus' in the Bible?
Notice Jesus did not say "until all these things have begun to occur" as some lying, blasphemous
antichrists would have the phrase mean. The verb to occuror occurred means that something has
happened, has been completed, has come to fruition. It means that an event has completely happened.
By no stretch of the imagination does the verb occurredmean begin to happen, and the Greek language
is far too specific in meaning, with rules of conjugation that must be followed. These things were to
occur and to occur quickly. I realize that this is above the heads of these self-appointed preachers who
woke up craving chicken and thought it was a calling of God, yet who have never studied unto the
approval of God or submitted themselves unto the discipline of the Church of God but instead saw the
opportunity to make a fast buck, and if a man has to tell a lie to make a dollar he is a whore, as is Pete
Peters, and Mr. Bruggeman and now the Kalivases. Nevertheless, we will look at the precision of the
Greek language anyway, if for no other reason than to once and for all times expose the Kalivases,
Peters, Bruggeman and company as liars and antichrists. Let us read from The Apocalypse of Jesus
Christ: A Verse by Verse Exegesis, the latest work of Pastor V.S. Herrell, which is available from
Herrell Brothers Publishing House:
The Immediacy of the
Fulfillment of the Apocalypse



"The contention that the Apocalypse was to be fulfilled in the time of the generation
to which it was written is more than mere conjecture; it is an absolute certainty easily
proven by the internal statements of the Apocalypse itself. The language of the
Revelation makes it clear time and time again that the events described in it were relevant
to those first people who read the document and that the fulfillment of all those events
would occur in their lifetime..
"The affirmation of the immediacy for the fulfillment of the events described in the
Revelation is not merely affirmed in the opening of the Revelation, but such statements
confirming the immediacy of the Apocalypse are to be found throughout the Revelation
all the way to its end. We are solemnly warned that "the time is near"(Rev. 1:3; 22:10);
"things which must occur with speed"(Rev. 1:1); "what must happen quickly" (Rev.
22:6); and "I am come quickly" (Rev. 2:5, etc.).
"But incredibly, despite these express statements of immediacy that are so often
repeated throughout the Revelation, men operating under preconceived notions and
ideas refuse to take the Revelation for what it says. They willingly ignore the fact that the
Apocalypse was specifically written and addressed to the Christians of the first century.
They willingly ignore the most essential principle of interpretation regarding the
Apocalypse, that is, that since the Apocalypse was written to first century Christians the

imagery and symbols therein would have been discernible and understandable within
their experience and their historical time frame.
"It therefore is the more incredible that religionists throughout the centuries and
decades since its writing continue to ignore the expressed time limits so clearly stated in
the Revelation, and without fear of God have dared to remove the Apocalypse from the
first century and attempt to apply its predictions and occurrences to the present. What is
worse is that far too many apply the Talmudic, Jewish eschatological ideas and have
continued the fulfillment of the Apocalypse to some time in the indefinite and unknown
future. Yet, all the while the ability to understand the Apocalypse has simply been to pick
up the book and believe what it says, rather than to seek to add to or take away from its
statements.
"When we objectively turn to the Revelation, we find the immediacy of its occurrence
taught from its beginning to the end. Let us look at the opening statement of the
Apocalypse:


"A revelation of Jesus Anointed, which God gave to Him to show to His
slaves things which must occur with speed"(Rev. 1:1 AST).


"There can be no doubt that Jesus has Himself opened this book with the warning to
the Christian reader that all that they read in the book is to occur quickly or with speed.
Even from the King James version we read that these judgments we are about to read of
must "shortly come to pass." Here we can see in this one passage the urgency and
nearness of the coming judgment, which is clearly expressed in the Greek of the New
Testament. We shall further examine the Apocalypse for the development of the running
theme of the book, which is that all the things prophesied therein are to shortly come to
pass or happen almost immediately. In the process of doing this, we will dispel the
contentions of that apostate theology that may well agree that there were some things
which were shortly to come to pass in the Apocalypse, while claiming that most of the
Apocalypse was somehow to be fulfilled in the distant future. The absurdity of these
such contentions is manifested clearly when it is shown that the statements for the
immediate fulfillment of the events of the Apocalypse is not only stated in the beginning
of the Apocalypse, but all throughout the Revelation.
"We find at least seven occurrences throughout the Book of Revelation alone wherein
Jesus has told of the speed at which these things were to occur, and it must be
remembered that this book or account was written in 68 AD, almost 2000 years ago.


"Then remember from where you have fallen, and repent, and do the first
works. And if not, I am coming quickly, and will remove your lampstand from
its place, unless you repent"(Rev. 2:5 AST).
"Repent then! And if not, I will come to you quickly, and I will make war
with them by the sword of My mouth" (Rev. 2:16 AST).
"Behold, I am coming quickly" (Rev. 3:11 AST).
"And he said to me, "These words are persuasion and true. And the Master
God of the Separated Prophets sent His messenger to show His slaves what
must happen quickly"(Rev. 22:6 AST).
"Behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he keeping the words of the
prophecy of this Scroll"(Rev. 22:7 AST).
"And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward with Me, to give to each
as his work is" (Rev. 22:12AST).
"The [One] testifying these things says, "Yes, I am coming quickly." So be it.
Yes, come, Master Jesus! The favor of our Master Jesus [be] with all"(Rev. 22:20-
21 AST).


"So, we see that a clear and running theme throughout the book, from chapter 1 to
chapter 22, from beginning to end, is that of the urgency of those judgments and
prophecies which were revealed in the writing of this vision. Now, for those people who
are still not convinced that the Book of Revelation itself expressly states that those things
which were to occur were to occur quickly and with speed, let us examine some other
occurrences throughout the New Testament of the same Greek word and its derivatives,
that of tachus, which is defined by Walter Bauer as:


"1. adj. quick, swift, speedy... a. quickly, at a rapid ratetachu ephugon Mk. 16:8
t.r. - Mt. 28:8. -B. without delay, quickly, at once... Mt. 5:25; 28:7; Lk 15:22; J 11:29; Ac
14:2 ... c. in a short time, soon..." (A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament
and Other Christian Literaturepage 807).


"In fact, this is the same word that is defined by Strong as "prompt or ready; -swift".
Two of its derivatives, tachos and tachu, and which are the most often used words in the
above and following quotations of the New Testament, are defined as: a briefspace (of
time) ... in haste; quickly, shortly, speedily, shortly, without delay, soon, suddenly"
(Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of The Bible, reference numbers 5030-5036). Thus,
there can be no doubt to the meaning of these words. The problem arises when people
decide that in the instances when the Bible speaks of the days of vengeance or the end
of the Judean age, its definition somehow changes or completely becomes obsolete. If
Jesus did not mean that these things would come to pass shortly, quickly, with speed,
etc., why did He say they would? The answer is that He did mean that all the prophecies
of the Book of Revelation would come to pass shortly, quickly, or with speed.
"Let us continue with our examination of other instances where this word and its
derivatives are used to express a time element of a short time or a short while.


"'And going quickly, tell to His students that He was raised from the dead ...
And going away quickly, they ran from the tomb with great fear and joy ..."
(Matt. 28:7-8; cf. Mark 16:8 AST).
"Then being angry, the house-despot said to his slave, 'Go out quickly into
the streets and lanes of the city ..."(Luke 14:21 AST).
"That one, when she heard, rose up quickly and came to Him"(John 11:29
AST).
" ... then Satan entered into that one. Then Jesus said to him, 'What you do,
do quickly'"(John 13:27 AST).
"And striking Peter's side, he raised him up, saying, 'Rise up in haste'"(Acts
12:7 AST).
"And I saw Him saying to me, 'Hurry and go out quickly from Jerusalem ..."
(Acts 22:18 AST).
"Make haste to come to me shortly"(II Tim. 4:9 AST).
"We would like to first stress the fact that these and many more passages of the Bible
use the same Greek word which is used in Revelation to express the fact of a short time
or a little while, and have even been translated that way in almost any translation of the
New Testament. Now let us ask a question: Why is it that people who accept the doctrine
of premillennialism and of a false, so-called "second coming" of Christ sometime in the
indefinite future, and who believe that all the prophecies of Revelation are yet to be
fulfilled in the indefinite future, do not try and argue that in the above passages the word
quicklymeans anything other than quickly? Why do they lie and twist the Scripture to
their own damnation by trying to take away the time element of the Revelation? Why do
they try and put everything in the future? The answer is that they are willfully ignorant of
Biblical truth and do not challenge the Jewish lie of the future coming of the Anointed
One. For doing so takes the responsibility of doing God's will on this planet as it is in
Heaven off their shoulders. They like to believe that they do not have the responsibility
of working in the Government of God because they believe that Jesus will come back in
the future and do it for them, which can only be described as defeatist escapism of the
reality that is taught in God's Word the Bible.
"Another major fallacy in this futuristic point of view is that they call the "Day of
Vindication" the "second coming" of Jesus Christ, which is expressly taught in the New
Testament to have happened on the Day of Pentecost. Because they do not believe that
God has already finished His work, they themselves do not feel responsible for
upholding and keeping the laws of God. In believing these lies and deceptions they are
holding the teachings of men over the Word of God and have not gone to the Bible to
test the mentalities of their Judeo so-called "authorities" who tell them what to think.
They are keeping the traditions of men.
"I wonder what these Judeos would say if we told them that no Christians believed in
this so-called "second coming" and "rapture" before the 1800's? Would they believe that
everybody before them went to Hell for not believing this Jew-concocted lie and
blasphemy?"

Bill and Sandy also write:

"We do not pretend to be scholars of the caliber of Gary North or David Chilton."

First of all, why in the hell do they believe that Gary North or David Chilton are scholars and

nothing more than willful antichrists as themselves? Well, that is, of course, another issue. They're not
even of the Snuffy Smith caliber. Anybody that willingly twists the Scriptures by perverting the
language of the Scripture to their own damnation can only be described as an antichrist, especially
since they deny the second coming of Christ on Pentecost. If they are denouncing any scholarly ability
then this is the one truth they have told. They should not be trusted with a pencil. Do they not
understand that one is to wait upon his teaching, as the Bible commands us? If they don't know what
they are talking about, they shouldn't be teaching and damning others in the process. It is that simple.
Mrs. Kalivas goes on to state more of her erroneous opinion by saying:

"However, there is a better commentary on Revelation, written in the 19th century, which not only
present [sic] the Historical Interpretation of prophecy but also refutes Praeterism and Futurism, which
were at that time just taking root in European Christian circles. The word to which we referis Horae
Apocalypticae by Rev. E.B. Elliot."

As for this statement, it is just an outright lie. All real Christians throughout the centuries have
understood all the prophecies of the Word of God, including Revelation, to have been fulfilled, thus
providing the credentials for the Master Jesus Christ, Who accurately predicted the destruction of
Jerusalem, the Temple, the antichrist Jews, the unbelieving white people and the corruptible Mosaic
economy, and that Jesus had kept His promise and returned again on Pentecost in the person of the
Comforter or Holy Spirit. And make no mistake about it, God has always had a remnant. It is true that
from Augustine's writing of The City of God, a postmillennial interpretation of eschatology prevailed
over nominal Christianity, but it is also just as true that the Jewish, Judeo version of preterism can be
used to make an atheist out of man, such as George Bernard Shaw and Albert Schweitzer, but that still
does not excuse the Kalivases' and the right reverend Dave Barley and other liars from trying to sell
premillennialism under the new name ofhistoricism.A fart by any other name is still a fart. We
Separatists are continuously amused watching these scorched kettles call their fellow-travelers the pots
black. Judeo preterism is just the opposite end of the antichrist stick and is nothing more than the
antithesis of Jewish premillennialism. Be not deceived. Furthermore, historicism, which in truth is
nothing but another label for another version of Jewish premillennialsm, was created by contemporary
Jews to avoid being exposed as Jewish premillennialists. But the Bible records that Jesus returned a
second time on the day of Pentecost in the person of the Holy Spirit and that He still remains in His
people today and that the promises of vindication and vengeance for Christians made in the Old and
New Testaments were also fulfilled. As this truth is testified to in the Bible and all Christians are to
believe the Scriptures, every true Christian, has held to these truths.
Bill and Sandy also write:

"External evidence to the dating of John's Revelation comes from writings from early church

fathers and historians. There are no second or third century writings which mention or even point to a
dating of Revelation during the reign of Nero."
Let us again read from The Apocalypse of Jesus Christby V.S. Herrell to refute this point:

"He [John] also says that he came to be on the island of Patmos because of the Word of God. Now

Clement said that John went from Ephesus to Patmos 'after the tyrant was dead.' This was interpreted
by Eusebius and Jerome to be in reference to Domitian, who died in 96 AD. It is for this reason that a
late date has traditionally been given the writing of the Book of Revelation, with John writing the book
in his extreme old age. However, Clement never actually names the emperor, but simply calls him a
tyrant. Eusebius and Jerome simply assumed that this was an allusion to the name of Domitian, but it
could just as easily been in reference to Domitius Nero, who died in 68. In fact, Tertullian, who lived
long before Jerome and Eusebius and was not as corrupted, took this point of view, for he says that
John was banished at the same time that Peter and Paul were killed, thus indicating that Nero was the
tyrant who banished John. This, coupled, with other internal and external evidence regarding the
dating of the Book of Revelation to late 68 AD, tells us that John is saying here in Revelation that for
the sake of the Word he was banished to Patmos by Nero" (page 42).

In addition to this, Victorinus, who predates Eusebius, says: "[John] was condemned to the mines
in Patmos by Domitian Caesar." Domitian Caesar is none other than Domitian Nero, and Victorinus
continues to write that it was there that John saw his vision, which he published after Nero died in 68
AD. Bill and Sandy, however, have purposely and willfully out-and-out lied about this, stating the
Victorinus supports the 96 date, as well as lying about and twisting the words of Iranaeus and other
writers. I do not know about Bruggeman's and Peters' Bible, but mine says that no liar has eternal life
abiding him and that all liars will know the same fate in the Lake of Fire as the Devil and his
messengers. So here we have a clear witness from history that completely contradicts Mrs. Kalivas
and her ignorant contentions. Mrs. Kalivas cites all kinds of contemporary authors and books in her
article, which she no doubt copied from others, but being a scholar means being familiar with all the
evidence. It also means being objective in evaluating the evidence, but these words are nodoubt
wasted on a woman leading a man wanting to be seen of men.
Many more proofs could be offered, but the most important thing here is not what so-called church
fathers wrote, for their accounts are only second, third, or fourth-hand accounts. The point is that the
church fathers we must believe and listen to are those of the Bible, and only historical accounts and
writings that agree with what Bible says are credible. For more information read The Apocalypse of
Jesus Christ.
Bill and Sandy further comment:

"We do not require a period of slaughter and persecution of Christians underDomitian order to

believe the Book of Revelation was written in that period. In fact, we use the absence of this type of
persecution to our advantage in the following manner: Under Nero Christians were more likely to be
killed as were Paul and Peter, yet under Domitian, Christians were banished, as was John. Had John
been brought before Nero, why was he not put to death as were so many others?"

First of all, you stupid women, John was not a Roman citizen and therefore was not entitled to the
right to be brought before the emperor. He would have fallen under the jurisdiction of the Herods,
who probably only banished him for fear of an uprising of the people of Jerusalem or one of the
Roman provinces of Asia Minor. At best, he was brought before one of the Herods or a lowly Roman
magistrate. The Kalivas' argument is silly anyway, because it seems to be self-evident that he was
banished or sentenced to the isle or mines of Patmos for failure to worship Nero Caesar by burning
incense to him, as was required in every Roman province, and therefore when it says he was banished
to the isle by Caesar, it merely means by the authority of Caesar, not by Caesar in person. But as
Christians we understand that he was sent to the island that he might write a warning and comforting
epistle to that generation. Furthermore, it does not matter what Bill andSandy require in their
competitive game playing. What matters is what the Bible requires, and according to the Bible,
Christians were being persecuted and were crying for vengeance in the Book of Revelation, at which
time God answered their prayers and destroyed the lawless and evil Judeans of Jerusalem and the
Mosaic economy. Bill and Sandy should have studied harder and become scholars before they
condemned themselves with their words.
Bill and Sandy continue:

"Most scholars do not view the Book of Revelation as primarily a prophecy of the destruction of

Jerusalem ..."

So what? Most scholars think the Jews are God's chosen people and they think Jesus is a Jew,
too. And there is even a bunch of so-called scholars that believe in flying saucers from Mars. Most
effeminates let women wear the pants and write antichrist, lying articles. But that proves nothing. The
issue is what the Bible says and teaches, and that we must let God be true and every man a liar. It is
only legitimate to quote scholars of a precise scientific discipline, such as etymology or mathematics.
Preaching is by no means a science, but is rather an art, or in most cases, a con-art, especially among
those who speak in tongues. What does the Bible say? That is the issue. What about the prophecies on
the Mount of Olives in Matthew 24, and elsewhere in the Bible, in which Jesus predicts the utter
destruction of the temple in Jerusalem so that no stone would be left on another, and what about the
fact that these prophecies were paralleled in Revelation?
Bill and Sandy also scold preterists for realizing that Revelation is not a purely symbolic book but
that it contains literal, factual, and now historical statements. For example, Bill and Sandy believe that
the kings of Revelation are by no means "kings." They believe that this could not possibly be in
reference to seven, literal kings or emperors. Instead, they write:

"On the other hand, to view the 'kings' mentioned as different forms of Roman government is
more in keeping with the symbolic interpretation."

Who said that this statement in Revelation was to be symbolically interpreted? I suppose it was
these antichrists who also like to "symbolically" interpret Jesus Christ's specific words. What does the
Bible mean when it says, "Jesus went away into the temple, and His students came up to
Him to show Him the buildings of the temple. But Jesus said to them, 'Do you not
see all these things? Truly, I tell you, There will not at all be left one stone on
another stone which in no way will not be thrown down'"(Matthew 24:1-2 AST). But
instead of sticking to the facts and letting the Bible tell you when it is meant symbolically or when it is
meant literally, the pots calling the kettles black pursue their arguments with one another, and this of
course is one of their favorite tactics to further confuse the issues and muddy the water by arguing with
one another over what is to be taken literally and was is to be taken symbolically. Let us pray that no
truth-seeking or truth-loving Christian white man will be seduced by this dog and pony show put on
by these two arms of the whore of Babylon.
Did Jesus keep His promise or not? Do you believe that Christ is liar, Bill and Sandy? We think
and know He kept His promises. Furthermore, when the Bible says that five emperors had fallen, did
it mean that five Roman governments had fallen, and if so, what five governments were these? And if
this statement is to be interpreted symbolically, then how can you prove that seven kings doesn't mean
seven fish or seven cats? This typical Judeo sophistry will not work, for the Book of Revelation is not
only symbolic but literal. The problem with Bill and Sandy is that they are willfully ignorant of the
historical facts relating to the time of the writing of the Apocalypse, but they can correct that simply by
reading Pastor V.S. Herrell's incomparable work The Apocalypse of Jesus Christ: A Verse by Verse
Exegesis.
There is little question that dispensational and historical Judeo preterists stand in need of just
criticism, for they, like Bill and Sandy, are willful liars and try to mislead people into the
disinformation paraded around for years in the name of preterism. However, Bill and Sandy and Mr.
Peters and Mr. Barley and Mr. Bruggeman and all who endorse the nonsense of so-called historicism
need to understand that theistic preterism is not the same as the Judeo version of dispensational and
historical preterism. Of this, these people are willingly ignorant since they have been told the truth and
refuse it. The point is that once you deviate from the explicit statements of the Bible and the facts of the
Word, you have taken the position that the Bible is open to private interpretation, even though the
Bible says, "knowing this first, that every prophecy of Scripture did not come into
being of its own interpretation, for prophecy was not at any time carried by the will
of man, but having been carried along by the Mentality of Separation, God spoke
through men"(II Peter 1:20 AST).
Bill and Sandy also write about the seventy "weeks" of Daniel, which was already also covered in
The Apocalypse of Jesus Christ.Click here to read.
Let us conclude by witnessing the truth, and the truth is, as we have shown over and over again
for many years, that the eschatological theory of premillennialism, regardless of how it is packaged,
that projects the second coming of Christ into the future is a Jewish lie and a Jewish theory. And all
who teach such a defeatist and blasphemous doctrine are Jewish fellow-travelers. For the truth is that
after Jesus Christ's earthly ministry, His death and resurrection, and after having been seen by many
indisputable witnesses for forty days, He ascended into the heaven and ten days later, on the day of
Pentecost, He returned in the power and person of the Holy Spirit, a.k.a. the Spirit of Truth, Oil of
Gladness, Mind of Christ, Spirit of God, Paraclete, Comforter, Mentality of Separation, etc. The point
is that this same Jesus, God in the flesh, did return as the Christian's Advocate and Leader to bodily
indwell His chosen Body Politic, commonly understood to be and known as the Church. And they, as
a collective body would be the temple of God not made with hands, wherein God would dwell
henceforth in the person of the Paraclete or Leading Advocate or the Holy Spirit. So therefore the Bible
records that Christ has already returned and has already appeared to those who were looking for Him.
Moreover, history vindicates Jesus Christ as the true Prophet and Messiah of white Israel because
He stood forty years before the fact and predicted the utter destruction of Herod's temple and the
Judean or Jewish economy and system. By AD 70, the Living Christ and His Church were vindicated
as being the true Israel of God, God's true chosen people because the predictions of Christ, God in the
flesh, came to fruition in AD 70, constituting the Day of the Lord, not only of His vengeance, but also
of His and His Church's vindication as being the true Government of God on earth. This, in a
nutshell, is theistic historical preterism, for the Bible declares that all prophecies spoken of the Christ
were fulfilled by the Christ at the end of the age, which is all the term preterist means anyway.
This is not, of course, to deny that certain social dynamics do not repeat themselves or to deny that
the last enemy of the walking death of mongrelization has not yet been destroyed in the physical or that
we are still not looking for a new earth wherein dwells absolute righteousness or justness. We are
simply saying that in terms of all authority in Heaven and earth being given to Jesus Christ and His
Church, that is already an accomplished fact and we have already entered the everlasting age of the
Church of God. In this age, in this new world, God's people will and do take up swords to fight.
Now, when we contrast theistic historical preterism with perversions of preterism, such as the run-
of-the-mill Judeo popular version which cannot explain how Christ came in AD 70, then we see what
the antichrists of this world are doing to keep people from coming to the truth. They are either teaching
Jewish premillennialism on one hand, seeking to set the Jew up as a religious authority and
mongrelizing God's Church in the process while rendering Chrisitanity impotent and defeated, or on
the other hand they are seeking to pervert any historical truth regarding preterism by going through
these long songs and dances and pretending to prove their points in refuting premillennialism only to
fail to come to any conclusions and therefore make atheists out of Christians. As we said before,
George Bernard Shaw became an atheist because of his wrongful understanding of preterism and so
do many thousands of others when the Jew twist is put to preterism. So what we end up with is, once
again, the black pot calling the kettle black and a dog and pony show put on by your local Judeo
circus.
The Christian Separatist Church is, to the best of my knowledge, the only formal organization in
the world preaching the complete truth of what the Bible really teaches in all areas of Bible doctrine. I
encourage you to take advantage of the opportunities afforded you through reading Separatist literature
on the Internet, and be sure to become familiar with the works of Dr. V.S. Herrell, especially his
wondrous and magnificent translation of the New Testament from the oldest extant Greek manuscripts,
the Anointed Standard Translation. If you are one of God's chosen and called of the race of Adam,
your inner man cannot help but thrill at the Bible truth that you will learn just from a few dedicated
minutes of reading with the Christian Separatists.
Now, as to the Kalivases, I encourage them to repent to the truth, not only in the area of
eschatology but also in other erroneous views they hold. As to the so-called preachers we have
mentioned, the public should know and understand that these men have been told and given the truth
and that once you have taken money from God's people while in the service of Satan, you have
trodden underfoot the blood of Jesus Christ and it is almost impossible for such to repent.
Nevertheless, we ask these men to repent and to enter the salvation of our Master and our God, Jesus
Anointed.
Sincerely,

Mike Rose
