And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.(Leviticus 16:21-22)
Here is an ominous irony; on the eve of Yom Kippur, the God appointed Holy Day of Israel, our President Barak Hussein Obama grovels and apologizes before world leaders on behalf of a Christian country, seeking to appease Islam.
Yom Kippur, the “day of atonement”, calls upon Jews around the world to personal repentance, contemplation of sin, transgression and iniquity, and which points to the only God ordained solution to sin; propitiation by means of the God appointed substitutionary sacrifice. Among these sacrifices was the “Scapegoat” which bore the sin of Israel out into the wilderness, after the High Priest confessed the sins of the people upon Him.
Our Anti Christian leader, whose whole administration has been one continuous condemnation of America and the west for their “sins”against the third world and particularly the Muslim world, once again bowed low on our behalf, if not physically, certainly he did it orally, when he pledged to the avowed enemies of God, Israel, Christians and the west in general, that “we can’t let the future belong to those who slander the Prophet Mohammed”.
How could one possibly slander a pirate, rapist, and false prophet?
Obama has been busy “scapegoating”, blaming the over the top violence of crazed Muslim mobs, on an obscure Coptic film maker in LA, and by extension, blaming the Copts, the Christians, the Jews, and the West for the ills of the developing world. Obama is the “Anti-Aaron”, laying hands on and imputing trespasses collectively to all of us in the Judeo Chrstian west.
In the ancient temple services, as the High Priest of Israel performed the sacred transaction covering the sins of Israel, behind the curtain of the Holy of Holies. All Israel waited with bated breath for the High Priest to emerge, signifying that the sins of Israel had been covered once again for another year.
But in Israel and around the world among the Jews, now we see sad shades of the grandeur of the earlier temple services. Black hatted Hasidim twirl chickens as they confess their sins, and the sins of the nation, hoping for atonement, yet having no scriptural reason to believe that they will find it in the ritual given them by Rabbis and not ordained of God
.Obviously there is no forgiveness in this sad practice, seemingly necessitated by the destruction, of temple priesthood and sacrificial system in 70 AD.
How could God have allowed the temple and priesthood to be destroyed for two thousand years? Would the Most High really leave his people with no means of atonement for any length of time?
Yet the God of Israel warned them it would happen,
For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim: Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall fear the Lord and his goodness in the latter days Hosea 3:4-5
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.(Daniel 9:26)
But He made provision for the atonement of His people.
Forty years before the temple was destroyed, another priest took his place on a different altar, and offered himself as an atonement for the people, bearing the just and full penalty for their iniquities and transgressions, as he hung between heaven and earth.
Moses our teacher tells us, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree…” . This derelicted man, alone and tormented, abandoned by friend,lover and by God, utterly helpless before his foes, and dying a criminals death, was truly cursed of God, even wearing a thorny crown of the curse, as a sign of it.
But as Daniel predicted, he wasn’t cursed for himself but for the people, for “He was wounded for our transgression, bruised for iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with his stripes we are healed”. He too emerged from behind a curtain, as the Yom Kippur High Priest did, when he was raised up from the dead. This is our day of atonement, for reconciliation and peace has been brought to us through the crucified Messiah,Jesus!
But back to the “Kings of the world” and the demonic parody of Yom Kippur; in Obama’s version of appeasement, there will be no reconciliation with those who have long sought to destroy us, nor is the “guilt” that Obama and his ilk would charge us with based on reality. How troubling that the leader of a christian nation seeks to satisfy the claims of implacable pagans, who hate us!
All of this is being played out as a satanic parody of something that is real. There is an eschatological “Day of Atonement” which must precede the final ,heavenly Feast of Tabernacles. All men must be faced with the reality of their sins, and are being called to repentence.
Israel in particular is being searched, in fact we are coming into the “time of Jacob’s trouble”,
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him: But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.(Jeremiah 30:7-9)
God is dealing with His people Israel, and with the church and with the sinners of the world, who are being forced to take sides, for or against the God of the Bible. May Israel find peace through her Messiah! Maranatha!

I’ve been saying for years that BO is a Muslim. I wonder if anyone is listening? I believe this guy will get another 4 years and, boy, you aint see nuthin yet! Thank God for the reality of Jesus Christ!
This is what THE BIBLE warns us to the faithfull church this is good news as we know JESUS is coming soon let’s prsy for israel and the backslidden church
False religion on both sides, in fact on all sides to complement the false religion of the apostate church as well.. So what? Only biblical christianity will cut it with “the God of the Bible.” Vote according to your own best interests but seek the one TRUE God with all your heart soul and mind.
Maranatha! So true Bill. See you next week.
Thank you Bill, the Lord Bless you and keep you and continue to shine His face upon you. This is why we see so much division and tearing apart; not only nationally but even within the Church and in families. There will be no place to hide but in the True Saviour. Today is the day of salvation. The delusion that will deceive if possible even the elect is sent by the Lord God Himself and will come upon all who do not have a love of the Truth. The majority of the “church” has been deceived from the beginning without knowing it. Up till now, the watchmen have always been looking outside for the deception which had already taken root within when “The False Church fathers” threw out God’s Law to separate themselves from the Jews. It was anti-semitism from the start. When they did so they deceived the “sheep” so that each could follow the dictates of his own heart. For those who have ears to hear, please, I pray, turn back to the Truth, repent and hear the Spirit of Elijah. Turn back to Hear the Fathers of our faith; Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Turn back to the only sacrifice for sin; the one who came to fulfill the Law of Moses and sent His Holy Spirit to enable you to walk in His Law, obey His law and walk in His Truth. Those who could not enter His rest are those who did not obey. For this is the love of God,that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are NOT burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith. 1 John 5:3-4
I would have to disagree with the comment about B.O. being a Muslim. He is certainly not a faithful Muslim, even if he might be considered a Muslim in terms of heredity. I heard him with his own mouth say in an interview that he believes there are many paths to God. He is an ecumenicalist. No true Muslim would ever say something like that. Their Quran strictly teaches that there is no god but Allah. Saying that you could follow some other god and be considered faithful by Islamic standards would be heresy. I’m not trying to justify the man, but I do want folks to know that he is something more sinister than a mere Muslim. He is merely playing the Muslim world as a chess player would move a chess piece. His appeasement of their madness is simply a strategic move on his part to try to cover the fact that the U.S. and several other countries are hard at work destabilizing the Middle East and trying to create a violent power vacuum so that a new regional government can be created as part of a baby step toward a world government. The regional governments (such as the E.U) have to be in place before a world government can function. There must be regional entities for the world government to delegate to in order for it to function.
Jared, I agree with your assessment of Obama.
I just stumbled upon this blog recently, and have been very impressed by the two articles I have read so far. The idea of the “anti-Aaron” was well framed. So much of Islamic theology is exactly inverted from Christian thought. This is why I care about Muslims so much.
The Time of Jacob’s Trouble alias The Great Tribulation, cannot begin until the rapture of the (true) Church—and the removal of the one who now restrains the man of sin. (2Thess. 2:3-8).
