Summary:
Fire From Heaven
(Edition 1.0 20010526-20010526)
In the Last Days God says through the prophet Ezekiel that He will light a fire in the
Fields of the South and they will burn northwards and consume everything. Nothing will
remain untouched and the system that is set in train will last forever. This is that system
to be taken up by Messiah.

Summary: Fire From Heaven
Fire From Heaven
Ezekiel 20:46,47 reveals that God will kindle
a fire in a parched south land, which will burn
northward and devour all before it, and not be
quenched.
In the sequence Ezekiel 20:1 ff., the elders of
Israel come to ask of the Lord because they
are coming under adversity. We find from the
chapter that God has simply rejected them and
will not answer them because of the false
system of religion they have set up.
That false system continues into the last days,
when God lights the fire in the south to expose
it, and to set up the system which Messiah will
take up on His return.
Jeremiah 10:1-5 calls on Israel not to learn the
ways of the heathen, yet it does not take much
imagination to see the so-called Christian
activity in the cutting down and decorating the
Christmas tree.
In verses 6-16, especially verse 10, God
informs the world of the coming wrath for
disobedience, especially in the worship of
images instead of Him. Verses 17-25 cover
more of what God is angry about.
God is about to deal with the false system and
the leaders who perpetuate it. In its place the
biblical system will consume the earth with its
fire, and leave only the true system and a
repentant upright people.
Ezekiel 21:1-7 promises that God's sword will
go forth against all the people from south to
north (verse 4). Verse 7 promises it will
happen.
The fields of the south of Jerusalem in the last
days are the Israelite nations of South Africa,
Australia and New Zealand. The message will
light a fire from south to north, from the hills
of Ephraim (Jer. 4:15) – i.e. the modern
nations descended from Ephraim. The nations
have been warned of the coming of Messiah
(cf. the paper The Warning of the Last Days
(No. 44).
Ezekiel 20:1-24: God took Israel out of Egypt
and gave them His laws and Sabbaths as a
sign that they were to be His people. God calls
us out of sin, to learn His Laws and to keep
His Sabbaths, and to be one with Him. The
lessons of the 40 years in the wilderness were
never learnt by Israel. They polluted His
Sabbaths and His Laws, as is done today. Yet
the promises made to Abraham and his
descendants have been fulfilled in the last 300
years, because God is true to His word, and
not because of any virtue attaching to the
descendants.
Israel has been scattered throughout the world,
but God says He will gather them once again,
and will rule over them. He will purge out the
rebels who shall not enter the land of Israel
(Ezek. 20:33-44). It will require repentance,
baptism and obedience for return to Israel and
to worship God in truth.
How will God do that? He will establish His
truth from the Church of God in the south
land, which speaks against the false system of
religion established from Babylon and the Sun
and Mystery cults into Christianity. This
system is monumental in its scope and has
encompassed the whole world. God exposes it
and lights the fire.
This truth of God will proceed from south to
north and all nations will be informed.
Ezekiel 20:45-49: The parable was heard and
not understood, but is opened in these end
days. It is the time for people to be told and
the fire lit. War is upon us and we will feel the
wrath of God in our stupidity (Ezek. 5:1-10).
Ezekiel 8:1-7 deals with the religious apostasy
of Israel, caused by the elders.
Ezekiel 10:1-10: The Fire is taken from the
Cherubim and is given in the power of the
Holy Spirit to achieve this purpose of God.
Summary: Fire From Heaven
Ezekiel 15:1-8: The Vine is the house of Israel
(Isa. 5:7) and was consumed, but will be
purified even more in the last days.
Ezekiel 16:18-25: We still worship the
Mystery system of Christmas and Easter
(Istar) and we murder our children by
abortion.
Why wouldn't God be angry and visit His
wrath upon us?
Ezekiel 21:25-32: For a full explanation of the
overturning over the centuries of the kingdom
see www.abrahams-legacy.org. The Fire will
consume entire nations in the last days.
Ezekiel 22:12-25 (especially verse 14): Can
thine heart endure, or can thine hands be
strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee? I
the LORD have spoken it, and will do it.
Verse 22: As silver is melted in the midst of
the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst
thereof; and ye shall know that I the LORD
have poured out my fury upon you. God's fury
will be so fierce, and who can stand in that
time.
Ezekiel 34:1-6: This serious indictment
against the priests shows clearly the state of
the people today. They do not understand the
word of God. They have been led astray,
worshiping a false system. They do not know
God, or the Son He sent.
Verses 7-16: God seeks His own, and judges
how they treat each other in the last days.
Verses 17-31: There will be an end to the
persecutions of God's faithful ones, and He
will be our God.

Judges 15:1-7: Samson lit a fire in the midst
of the Gentiles, and that Fire has now been lit,
in the south land, and is spreading north and
worldwide. 1994 saw the Fire begin and the
message established God's new system. There
will be a Reading of the Law in 2005 as per
Deuteronomy 31:10,11, and again in 2012 and
on to the Jubilee in 2027. Sometime between
now and then the Two Witnesses will have
power for 3 ½ years, heralding the return of
Messiah. The Heavens will be shut up for
three and a half years and Fire will proceed
from Heaven direct on the earth against all
false worship.
Ezekiel 21:1-13: Note here God speaks of the
sword that condemns the rod of His son. Thus
this sword of slaughter must be a false church
that strikes at the true Church of God under
Christ. This false church has struck at the rod
of Christ since it was established in power,
and especially so since its formulation as the
Holy Roman Empire from 590 to 1850. This
time frame was 1260 years, or a time, times
and half a time of the prophecy of Revelation,
when the woman, that was the Church, was
pursued by the dragon and his false system of
worship.
Verses 25-27: Israel and the kingdom will be
handed over to Messiah when He comes.
God has given the power of His Holy Spirit as
the Fire From Heaven to light the fire, which
will work north and consume the whole world
and bring it to the correct worship of the one
true God.
