Vaccine Rights Rally A Response To Sorceries

By the time you reach the end of this piece today you'll know why the Lord led me to a comprehensive study of the Book of Micah. But first, please allow me to set the stage a bit before the curtain is raised on His production.

It's good to see such awareness and hesitation -- no, common sense -- out there on this subject. Specifically, that people are standing up for what's right when it comes to state-mandated forced vaccines like they are pushing in New York State.

That's right! Quietly, a couple weeks ago Albany passed a new law that requires ALL HEALTH CARE PERSONNEL to receive both the regular Flu shot as well as the Swine Flu vaccine by November 30th. Those who do not comply will be at the mercy of their employers to decide what will be done with them. Many will lose their job willingly rather than take a vaccine.

In an unprecedented power grab, Richard Daines (the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Health) has issued an order requiring all health care workers to get the seasonal Flu shot by November 30th or face termination. Daines justifies this seizure of rights by making the bogus claim that there is a seasonal flu emergency in New York. In another unprecedented move, unlike all other vaccine mandates under New York law, NO EXEMPTIONS will be allowed for religious reasons! How good of them to have all of their bases covered, isn't it?

Daines has no authority to declare a non-existent public health emergency. According to the NYSDOH's own data, there was only 68 confirmed cases of flu in the week ending on September 12th in a state of almost 20 million people! Plus, none of the laws cited by Daines in a document explaining his actions gives him the authority to override existing law by decree according to an analysis performed by attorneys working with the Autism Action Network.

My mom is one of those medical professionals who will be affected by this. In fact, she already received a letter from her employer stating that she needs to at least get the regular Flu shot by October 30th, and the H1N1 vaccine by November 30th. She's going to refuse both and is currently in limbo about what that might mean for her and her 30+ years of medical experience as an LPN.

Unfortunately, my recruiting firm rarely dealt with the Health Care Industry so I don't have any opportunities to throw her way let alone contacts to put her in touch with. All of that doesn't matter though. As this news video shows, she definitely won't be the only one standing firm on this issue:

Forced Vaccines Refused By Nurses In New York



What will happen to my mom and others like her? I guess we'll know soon enough as we're down to only weeks left before a state-imposed mandate to get vaccinated by a certain date reaches critical mass. For now, my mom is doing the only thing she can -- relying and resting on the Lord to see her through.

Actually, it's kinda funny because my mom who's not much of a writer herself has been on fire the past 2-3 weeks. A more accurate description would be to say that she's writing, and writing, and writing as if her life depended on it! Specifically, she's working on a collection of daily devotionals that she plans to self-publish that she says "help people get through the storms of life like losing a job unexpectedly because you refuse to take a vaccine that you know is not safe..." and the last time I talked to her she had something like 50 chapters! God works in mysterious ways, huh?

Anyway, the mainstream media has been extremely quiet on this so much so that those who don't have family and friends in the Health Care Industry probably have no idea this is going on. My mom and I separately talked to my aunt about this very same subject when the news first broke that the law had been passed a few weeks ago (she lives in Annapolis, MD) and she hadn't heard a single word about any of this! Worse, she thought we were making it up even though we live in New York ourselves ("Oh, come on now! Where did you hear that? On the Internet?").

Good to see that there's an organized protest tomorrow in Albany, NY over this:

Vaccine Rights Rally At State Capitol Building
East Capitol Park
Tuesday, September 29th, 2009
10am - 1pm EST
Albany, NY

I will do my best to report back following tomorrow's protest. Hopefully, there are others out there who know more about this than I do, or who know of other rallies taking place around the country.

Either way, we need to at least spread the word. Folks, this is how it all starts -- covertly with those who "should get the vaccine", which is only a hop-skip-and-a-jump away from making it mandatory for everyone. Today, it's health care workers. Tomorrow, it's you and me.

Remarkably, this all fits nicely within an end times prophecy context. How so aside from all the things we've already speculated? Although it is not generally known (heck, I didn't know this until I heard it on Future Quake!), Biblical prophecies concerning the last days clearly identify drugs playing a key role. This fact, however, has been obscured through a poor translation of the original Old and New Testament texts.

For example, in Revelation 9:21 most translations have translated the Greek pharmakeion / pharmakeia as "sorceries" (see KJV, ASV, NAS, NAU, RSV, NRS, NKJ, WEB, DRA, RWB, YLT). The New King James Version has a marginal reference which says that in the Alexandrian and Majority Texts the Greek word in Revelation 9:21 is pharmakon, which literally refers to "drugs".

Yet, the Greek word in the Textus Receptus underlying the KJV at Revelation 9:21 is pharmakeia, which can literally refer to either the "use of drugs", or to "poisoning", or to "druggery".

It should be noted that the reference in Revelation 9:21 is not to a helpful or medicinal use of drugs such as in Paul's instruction to Timothy to use a little wine for its medicinal properties (1 Timothy 5:23). The pharmakeia of Revelation 9:21 is an end-time druggery, which could refer to everything from over-prescribed antidepressants to forced vaccines (like the coming H1N1 vaccine), or something entirely new and unexpected that is soon to be introduced to the world.

It would seem as though there's also a connection to my Micah study from the last few days, which blows my mind. Some argue that the greatest single examples involving drugs in the Bible (i.e. examples of illegal drug trafficking brought about through free trade; capitalism run amok due to the international pharmaceutical drug lobby via something like the H1N1 vaccine in response to a manufactured global pandemic) can be found in the historical record of the two birthright nations descended from the ancient Biblical patriarch Joseph, the two birthright nations of Ephraim and Manasseh. In Genesis 48:16, they were collectively given the prophetic name of Israel.

Their collective power is described in the tremendous prophecy of Micah 5:7-15; a prophecy that depicts deliverance and destruction simultaneously. They are described collectively and symbolically as a lion capable of destroying all of their enemies (verses 8-9). Also described, however, is their internal moral decay; and a major part of this decay is their illegal/immoral involvement with drugs. Upon closer examination, one wonders if this passage is also referring to the coming judgment upon America.

God says, "and I will cut off sorceries from your hand" (Micah 5:12). The word "sorceries" (NKJV) is a translation of kashaphiym, which the Septuagint translates as pharmaka, or literally drugs. Micah 5:12 alone indicates drugs being "in their hand", and that denotes direct action, or perhaps involvement in illegal drug trafficking. Could it denote forced vaccination instead of illegal drug trafficking?

Another major prophecy revealing an end-time involvement in either illegal drug trafficking or forced vaccination is found in Malachi 3:2-6. This prophecy concerns the return of Jesus Christ, His second advent (verses 2-4). As in Revelation 18:23, some argue it also describes the results of Anglo-American free trade imperialism. Could we say that it describes the results of capitalism at its worst? Profiting from a man-made global H1N1 pandemic and the vaccine used in response to it?

It seems plausible to me unless I'm missing something here. Another unbelievable connection is made between "sorcerers" and "those that oppress the hireling in his wages" (verse 5). That last verse (verse 5) is what sells it for me. I mean, it sounds an awful lot like these medical professionals who will be fired for not taking the vaccines, or an awful lot like the state of NY "that oppress the hireling in his wages", doesn't it?

Not convinced? According to this excellent commentary by James R. Calvert from way back in 2002 for RNN:

In Malachi 3:5, the word "sorcerers" is a translation of the Hebrew word makashaphiym. Makashaphiym here is a ksp participle in the Pi'el form of the verbal stem functioning as a substantive. This is important because such a form has the sense of an occupation (see Wilhelm Gesenius, E. Kautzsch, and A. E. Cowley, Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar, 2nd English ed. [London: Oxford University Press, 1910], sec. 52 f, h; Brown, Driver, and Briggs, Lexicon, p. 506, and William Sanford LaSor, Handbook of Biblical Hebrew [Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1979], vol. 2., p. 104, sec. 28.2). The exact same form is used this way in Exodus 7:11 and Daniel 2:2 where it is speaking of individuals whose livelihood was also somehow involved with drugs.

Absolutely stunning, isn't it?

Lord, I am in complete and total awe of You! I have no words to describe the depth of how you have seamlessly woven Your Word with the realities of this life. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that You are in full control now just as You have always been. So, I will not fear what it coming, but rest on what You've already told us to expect, and trust in You to see me (us) through.

MSM may not be covering mandatory vaccines, but Alex Jones was ALL OVER IT last week devoting most of the week to specifically that subject.

The bottom line besides all of the things added to the vaccine is that it still consists of a man-made, laboratory created virus that could never occur in nature. Why would anyone willingly introduce that virus (dead or weakened) into their bodies??

Intense tracking for swine flu shot's side effects

A doctor who is an expert in diseases says he will not take not will give his children the flu vaccine. Notice how he's treated by the press.

BTW, let's not forget the three quarantined Navy ships which happened AFTER they got the vaccine.

Jred, I am so very glad that you made the drug/prophecy connection to these last days. I don't know if drug use opens portals or just numbs the users out,(prescription and otherwise)! I am certain that we are in the final hours of time before the great tribulation and have placed my hope on the only hope we truly have...come quickly LORD JESUS! Shalom

I was already aware about the word pharmakeia being mistranslated but remember linking it to higher drug usage in the last days. It blows my mind that it may be linked to "medical" drugs/medicine instead!

I remember reading about vaccines (linked to swine flu?) listed as Biodefense Stockpiles EU666 and US666.

I thought it was an odd choice of numbers, but convinced myself this really couldn't be the mark of the beast. I mean, how would it prevent you from buying or selling? Now we see the possibility of medical workers losing their jobs if they don't take the vaccines. No job = no money = no buying.

OK so it hasn't stopped you from selling yet...

I also spotted something interesting reading the scripture again:

Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Notice that it says "buy OR sell", and not "buy AND sell"... Food for thought

Hey Jred, I am surprised you made no connection to this story.
Baxter: Product contained live bird flu virus
Baxter Caught Shipping Vaccines With Live Avian Flu Virus To 18 Countries Worldwide
Czech newspapers are questioning if the shocking discovery of vaccines contaminated with the deadly avian flu virus which were distributed to 18 countries by the American company Baxter were part of a conspiracy to provoke a pandemic.
http://preventdisease.com/news/09/031109_baxter.shtml
This is one of those stories that was in the MSM and just disappeared without reasonable explanation for how such an "accident" could occur.
God bless you mom for being one of the first to stand up against this form of tyrany.

Let's be specific that the use of witchcraft or sorcery for "pharamacia" is not an improper translation. You just have to be aware that witchcraft and drug usage has always been connected (think of the native american practice of smoking "native vegetation" in their search for visions and spirit guidance). Even in a spiritual sense cities with strongholds of witchcraft will almost always have strongholds of drug use as well. They are intricately related in the spiritual realm and you can thereby expect they may well be connected in the trials of the last days as well.
It is funny that I had Micah 5:12 written in my Bible next to Revelation 18:23 as well due to the study of the 5:11 passages I had shared with you, JRed.
5:11 = Preparation for judgment! The Spirit speaks in a lot of different ways, yet His message is the same. That's why it's good to hear from other believers for confirmation on what he is saying. Thank you! TML

Hey TML, Sounds like you have some understanding and insight into the spiritual realm ! I live in a place that has had drug problems for years ! In the past few years I know of several Christians that have gotten so messed up w/ prescription drugs and have had terrible problems.This understanding of Pharmacopia/pharmekia was something I was shown nearly 30 years ago while working w/ kids in a local ministry and have never forgotten as I have also been into natural/health supplements. Anyways, recently I was reminded of a group here called Mental Physics.( In Joshua Tree,
Ca.10 min. from us here In Yucca) So I found them on the web and I was shocked to see how they have grown and had a page talking about how they have opened up 15 portals! The Church here is, and has been asleep /dead in some cases for a long time.... My friends and brethren are all too busy doing other things. No kidding, it is serious and I grieve about it...It is like there has been an abortive spirit that over 30 years always breaks up the real work of God. No one listens ( lack of obedience ) and it is worse now than ever. Sorry to go on, but I am alone in this and after 3 years of daily intercession from Holy Spirit I thought things would get better. I am no novice in spiritual things... just asking for input from H.S. led people who get it . I also asked on LA Marzulli site, and recently joined a forum. I am not the type to do this and I am really stretching myself.If no one cares to write would you at least pray for the Body up here in Yucca Valley, Ca. ?
Thanks to all who read and take the time to consider praying. H.C.

I work in Information Technology at a hospital in New York and they are threatening to fire me if I don't take the vaccines. I don't have direct patient contact so I don't understand how they lump everyone surrounding health care into the same mold. I am very worried about this. I cannot lose my job! I have a family and a mortgage. There are few jobs around me that I could go to and the economy isn't supporting new hiring. I am so torn as to what to do! Any prayers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God Bless.

JB said...

I've put in a little prayer for anyone asking here. It's going to be tough for all our brothers and sisters in the medical field. I'd hate to have to make this kind of decision, especially in the current economic climate.

@Nate: Oh man...this is going to effect a lot more people than I expected. IT Staff, cleaners etc etc

H.C.,
Interesting because I have felt burdened for CA this past year to the point of wanting to go just to encourage the Church there. But the state of the church is not unique to CA. Most people most places are preoccupied with "life/business as usual" and oblivious to what is happening around them. My prayer has been for them to hear the midnight cry of Matthew 25 ringing out and awaken. Or for God to stir such an overwhelming hunger in their hearts that daily life & its pleasures no longer satisfy so they MUST HAVE JESUS! I believe much of the Church will resist the structure changes God is bringing about in these days, but many will catch up later on. We can't allow ourselves to be discouraged by that. God has His remnant. It's quite possible that what you think is a failure of your intercessions is exactly what's driving what looks to you to be the negative consequences you are seeing. When we pray and bless people and cities it causes them to be placed on a head-on collision with the Holy Spirit that they will either yield to or resist. In essence, prayer will accelerate the inevitable. I think you need to get in contact with some like minded believers who can build you up and keep you motivated, and seek God to be sure you know your assignment for this time. Chuck Pierce has some positive things God has shown him about CA. I would suggest you try to get ahold of his vision. I believe he is intending to visit all of the states in this next year to reveal what he has seen about each one. If you want to stay in contact we can exchange email addresses. Strength and peace to you! TML
