THE MYSTERIOUS, SACRED, AND HOLY ARK OF THE COVENANT








In order to better understand America's role in the future Armageddon, we must understand some simple truths...the following information is gathered from www.roytaylorministries.com, and should be studied by all.


About one thousand B.C., Solomon, King David's son, built an elaborate Temple at Jerusalem, where the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was placed in the "Holy of Holies." The Tabernacle of God was built according to his instructions.

The inner court of the Tabernacle was the "Holy of Holies." This is where the Mysterious and Sacred Ark of the Covenant was placed. The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was the Holiest item in the Temple of God. It was sacred to the Israelites.

The dictionary says of this Sacred Tabernacle:

tab·er·na·cle (t²b"…r-n²k"…l) n. 1. Often Tabernacle.a. The portable sanctuary in which the Jews carried the Ark of the Covenant through the desert. b. The Jewish temple. 2. Often Tabernacle. A case or box on a church altar containing the consecrated host and wine of the Eucharist. 3.a. A place of worship. b. The Mormon temple. 4. A niche for a statue or relic. 5. Nautical. A boxlike support in which the heel of a mast is stepped. --tab"er·nac"u·lar (-n²k"y…-l…r) adj.


sa·cred (s³"kr¹d) adj. 1. Dedicated to or set apart for the worship of a deity. 2. Worthy of religious veneration. 3. Made or declared holy. 4. Dedicated or devoted exclusively to a single use, purpose, or person. 5. Worthy of respect; venerable. 6. Of or relating to religious objects, rites, or practices. --sa"cred·ly adv. --sa"cred·ness n.




A veil covered the entrance to the "Holy of Holies." The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was a pattern of heavenly things, manifested on earth. When the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was outside of the "Holy of Holies" it was always to be covered with a blue veil, or a blue canopy. The Mysterious. Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant, was a manifestation of God's Glory. God's Glory filled the Tabernacle when the Temple was completed, and when the Mysterious and Sacred Ark was placed in the "Holy of Holies."


THE POWER OF THE ARK


The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant, went before the Armies, of our Israelite Ancestors. It won the battles against the Phillistines, and others. Joshua came to the River Jordan, with the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant at the time when the Jordan River was at floodstage. At that time the power of the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was revealed. The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant held back the waters of the River while the Children of Israel crossed over, into Canaan land.
In Joshua, 3:3 it says:


Josh. 3:3: And they commanded the people, saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then ye shall remove from your place, and go after it.
5: And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the LORD will do wonders among you.
9: And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God.
10: And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you,
(Joshua was talking of the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant, which was the visible manifestation of God on earth. It was also the connection to the supernatural, and spiritual world)

10: And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.
11: Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.

The power of the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was a manifestation of God's power. It was actually the visible presence of God on earth.


The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant, will have a major part to play in our future. It will be instrumental in deciding the victory, in the upcoming Battle of Armageddon, which will be fought in America.


WHERE IS THE ARK OF THE COVENANT?


The Bible records that Jerusalem fell in 584 B.C. 2 Kings chapter 35 says:
2 Kings
35:1: And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
2: And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3: And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
4: And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
5: And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
6: So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
7: And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.




At this time as recorded by the above Scripture, Jerusalem was destroyed, and the King of Judah was taken to Babylon, and his sons were slain. But notice that " The House of the Lord" was not destroyed until one month later, as the next verses say:













2 Kings 25:8: And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
9: And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
10: And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.

According to the above verses, Solomon's Temple was not destroyed until one month later. Notice also in the following verses, that there were many Sacred Items taken from Solomon's Temple. But the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was not one of the items taken. Therefore the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant had to have been removed from the Temple, before the Temple was burned by the Babylonians. The scriptures gives a list of all the Sacred Items that were taken, it says:

2 Kings 25:11: Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard carry away.
12: But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
13: And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
14: And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
15: And the firepans, and the bowls, and such things as were of gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.



It is very important for the reader of this scrolled document to notice, that in all the items that were taken from Solomon's Temple by Babylon, the most precious item in the Temple was not mentioned. If the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was taken from the Temple at that time, it most certainly would have been mentioned in the Bible. We can therefore safely assume that the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant was removed before the Temple was burned.



At this point in history the whereabouts of The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant became lost, down through the ages. This is classified as "THE MYSTERY OF GOD," The Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant is actually the visible representation of "GOD ON EARTH." Revelation chapter 10, mentions the Mystery of God. As you will see later in this scrolled document, THE MYSTERY OF GOD IS THE LOST MYSTERIOUS, SACRED, AND HOLY ARK OF THE COVENANT.

Revelation 10 says of this Mystery of God:
Rev. 10: 7: But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the MYSTERY OF GOD should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
Yes, the whereabouts of the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant, is still a great mystery, a secret, and is the MYSTERY OF GOD. If the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant wasn't taken out of the Temple, when Babylon besieged the city, then it had to be taken out at some other time.

In the early 1910's, archeologists unearthed the site of "Solomon's Temple" and found that there were many passageways under the Temple, which went clear outside the city. These passageways were big enough, to carry the Mysterious, Sacred, and Holy Ark of the Covenant out of the City of Jerusalem.

Before I can continue on as to the whereabouts of the Mysterious and Sacred Ark of the Covenant, I must give you some additional information about Jeremiah the Prophet. The following information about, Jeremiah the Prophet is from Smith's Bible Dictionary, it says;
Jeremiah means; Whom Yahweh has appointed;

He was called very young to the prophetic office, and prophesied for 42 years. During the reign of Jehoakim he opposed the Egyptian Party, then dominant in Jerusalem, and maintained that the only way of safety, lay in accepting the supremacy of the Chaldeans. He was accordingly accused of treachery, and men claiming to be prophets, had their word from Jehovah to set against his.

In Jeremiah 14: 13-14 it says what Jeremiah said to God, and what God's reply was to Jeremiah:


Jer. 14: 13: Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
14: Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
Then God continues and pronounces judgement:
Jer. 14: 15: Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
16: And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.


As the danger from the Chaldeans became more and more threatening, the persecution against Jeremiah grew hotter. The people sought his life. But he was set however as a brazen fenced wall, and went on with his work of reproving the king, nobles, and the people. The danger that Jeremiah had so long foretold at last came near. The kings were carried into exile. but Nebuchadnezzar was friendly to the prophet, though powerless to help him.


The approach of the Egyptian Army, and the consequent departure of the Chaldeans, made the position of Jeremiah full of danger. He sought to effect his escape from the city, but he was seized and finally thrown into a prison pit to die, but was rescued.


On the return of the Chaldean Army, he showed his faith in God's promises, and sought to purchase the field at Anatoth, which his kinsman wished to get rid of.
At last the blow came, the city of Jerusalem was taken, the Temple burnt, and the king and his princes were killed. The prophet gave utterances to his sorrow in his lamentations.
After the capture of Jerusalem, in 586 B.C., by the Chaldeans, we find Jeremiah receiving better treatment. But after the death of Gedahiah, the people disregarding his warnings, took refuge in Egypt, carrying the prophet with them.


In captivity his words were sharper, and stronger than ever. He did not shrink even there, from speaking of the Chaldean King Nebuchadnezzar , once more, as being the servant of God.

This information that I have been recording is from The Smith's Bible Dictionary.
Jeremiah was given a mission by God to tear down, root up, and to destroy, to plant, and to build.
Jeremiah chapter one, says:


4: Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
5: Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
6: Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.
7: But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
8: Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
9: Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
10: See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.


According to these scriptures, Jeremiah was given a mission, by God to build and to plant. Jeremiah had a whole month to take the Mysterious, Sacred and Holy Ark of the Covenant out of Jerusalem, before the Temple was destroyed. King Nebuchadnezzar told Jeremiah, that he could come to Babylon, and live in royalty, or stay in Jerusalem or for that matter, go anywhere he wanted. He could also have the King's army at his disposal. Jeremiah was befriended by King Nebudchudnezzer. Jeremiah and other prophets of that time, such as Daniel, were held in high regards by the Babylonians.


Jesus referred to this abuse of the prophets, when he said:


Mt 13:57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.
Mk 6:4 But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
Jn 4:44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.


These ancient prophets could interpret visions and dreams. This is the reason they were held in such high regard by the rulers of Babylon. The last written account of the Mysterious, Sacred and Holy Ark of the Covenant is written in the book of 2 Macabees, which is found in the Apocrypha. The Apocrypha at one time, was part of the original Holy Scriptures, but was taken out and removed by man.

The Storm's About To Rage...Looming Prescense of Evil Over America



Weeks after accusing President Bush of "shameful" behavior over the imprisonment of two Border Patrol agents who shot an unarmed suspected drug smuggler along the U.S.-Mexico border, a federal lawmaker turned up the heat further Wednesday, suggesting the president should be impeached if either of the two men is murdered in prison.
Speaking after the Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed that agent Ignacio Ramos was assaulted by inmates in his Mississippi prison over the weekend, California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher had a warning for the White House.
"I tell you, Mr. President, if these men -- especially after this assault -- are murdered in prison, if one of them lose their lives, there's going to be some sort of impeachment talk in Capitol Hill," he told a press conference in Washington D.C.(Listen to Audio)
When Ramos and colleague Jose Compean began their sentences of 12 and 11 years' imprisonment respectively last month, Rohrabacher said of the president for not pardoning the men, "This is the worst betrayal of American defenders I have ever seen."
"It's shameful this was done by someone who is in the Republican Party," Rohrabacher added, saying Bush "obviously thinks more about his agreements with Mexico than the lives of American people and backing up his defenders."
The outrage has targeted both the administration and U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, who prosecuted the two and offered an immunity deal to the suspected drug smuggler, Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, in return for his testimony against the agents.
Sutton has noted that the agents not only shot an unarmed man while he was fleeing toward the Mexican border, but also tried to cover up the crime by disposing of their shell casings and not reporting the incident to their supervisor.
After a two-week trial last year, the two were convicted by a jury on 11 out of 12 counts, including assault with a dangerous weapon, assault with serious bodily injury, discharge of a firearm during the commission of a crime of violence, willfully violating the illegal immigrant's constitutional rights, lying about the incident and failing to report the truth.

It is clear that this current Administration has none of the best interests of America at heart, and has full intentions of selling out the American People to the New World Order. The Invasion of America has began, and it is going on in plain sight. The endgame for a border without walls? You take a wild guess: Implantable microchips that will determine who buys or sells in the New World Economy!! There is no secret rapture before the Tribulation; in fact, the Great Tribulation has already begun...just ask Ignacio Ramos who has suffered broken ribs at the hands of Illegal Alien Prisoners in a Yazoo City, Mississippi prison . Wake up, America, before there is another Waco in your backyard!!
