In this story the eighth chapter of Esther's continues immediately following the seventh chapter, on the same day.  Their is no time laps from the moment that Haman was left hanging from his own gallows, to when Mordecai moved in to take control over the duties of the office Haman held.  In reality, Babylon ruled over this empire from India to Egypt , however in this story, the Meds and Persians are in control.  This then is a story that God has put his approval on, for it is written to alert the Elect of God, of exactly how it will be in this last and final generation.   

Remember that it will be one form of government that will receive a deadly wound before the final government will take control.  Revelation 13:1   "And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon this heads the name of blasphemy."  This sea are the human people living on this earth, all of them, while the beast that rises our of the sea, is that one world government that will tare down the borders, and cause the entire earth to be under one world governmental order.   

As this beast develops into his final stage, seven trumpets are sounded to announce each stage that takes place.  The trumpets are the seals, and also the vials that are also spoken of.  Jesus let us know from Revelation 9:1, just as through the five Acrostics of Esther, that each thing that happens are within the will and plan of God.  "And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit."  Satan is that morning star that this verse is talking about.  

Isaiah 14:12  "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!"   

The first four trumpets have sounded, and the trumpet announcing Satan's arrival and approval that his coming is all part of the plan and will of God.  This just doesn't happen by accident, and so many assume, but Our Heavenly Father will give His authority over to this created being called Satan, to test those children of God's living in their flesh bodies, here on earth.  This is a one world Government, and Satan and his kids, the Kenites, will be the ones in charge of the government that will be doing the testing.  Satan will have the help of every last one of his demonic force to test God's Elect, to see if we are worthy to wear the precious crown, and be the joint heirs with his Holy Son, Jesus the Christ.   

We were given the reality of this end time government in the book of Daniel, of Babylon .  This book of Esther is just another sample of this One World system that has formed and is now in full control over the nations and people of this earth.  Our Heavenly Father, through His Word, has warned us to learn the parable of the fig tree, of how these Kenites will work, so that you and I will not fall into their traps and be taken in by their lies and distortions.  The Christians of this world today, have set up this world government and have allowed themselves to come together in their councils and join with other heathen religions to form One Religious body.  They are called the world order through the World Council of Churches, where by men of these church houses are nothing but houses of nothingness, or "Beth-aven".    

This is as it was in the book of Esther, where Haman was the one that set up that system, that would be taken out of the way, and the new system would take over immediately.  Revelation 13:2, 3   "And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority." [2]  "And I say one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast." [3]  

So this beast or world system that John saw in the book of Revelation, was just "like", looked like the form of a leopard, with the mixture of both black and white.  These spots of this leopard are spoken of in Deuteronomy 32:5, and are different spots than what God's children's spots are to be. "They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: They are a perverse and crooked generation."  God has revealed to Moses that our generation will be a perverse and crooked generation, and this world government will do exactly as Satan wants it to be.  Satan's children, the Kenites will be in charge, and if you want to get along within that government, you will follow their guidelines.  That government is owned and controlled by the four hidden dynasties, so expect what you see happening.   

The political "feet of the bear" will be doing exactly what the bear nation Russia (Esau, "the chief princes of Meshech and Tubal" [Kenites, the sons of Cain]), wants it to do.  This is what Ezekiel 38, 39 are all about.  Our nation and the rest of the peoples of the earth will have moved so far to the left politically, that Communism will seem to be the right thing to do.  That is what human rights are all about, giving us this false sense of peace and prosperity.  The borders are falling faster than lies can be covered over.   

This world political best will speak with the mouth of a lion, just as Jesus told John in Revelation 9:8 told us that it would.  "And they had hair as the hair of women, and the teeth were as the teeth of lions."   "They" are the fallen angels that will come with Satan to this earth, as well as the Kenites, and all things and people that become part of that one world system we are studying here in the book of Esther, as well as Daniel.  When they speak it will be gentle and peaceful, but those words will rip out your very soul if you follow what they instruct you to do.  This was a warning from Jesus to you and I in this final generation.        

This political head or beast will receive a mortal wound, just as Haman did, when he was hung by his head or neck from his own gallows.  By the same gallows that he built up to eliminate the wicked ones in the beginning, and then the Mordecai's or children of Satan will step in and prepare the way for their father Satan.  No, it's not the person or persons that hang from those gallows, but the political system that brought this beast into being.  The new system will be a religious way for Satan to be presented as that new hope that was promised by Messiah (Christ).  Most Christians living today will have been taught to receive this false Christ known as the Antichrist [instead of Christ], through the false doctrines presented them at their church house.   

Satan will give this religious system full power and authority to heal that deadly wound that will cause great confusion world wide, and in return this so called church of the end times will bestow honor on Satan as their God.  It's going to happen, because God has warned us that it would, and he has written every last detail within His Holy Word.  If you are not sealed with the truth of His Word in your mind, before these events take place, then God will allow those plans of Satan and his Kenites to happen to you.  

Revelation 9:4   "And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads."   

Your mind is in your forehead, and the final battles of this age are fought with words and ideas that go against the world of God.  If the Word of God is allowed to dry up and be gone from the face of the earth, forbidden by Satan and even your church, then the only place that it can exist is in the minds of those that have stored it there before hand, before the arrival of Satan and his fallen angels.  

The day that this 8th chapter of Esther is talking about is that day referred to in Revelation 13:3, when the deadly wound takes place, and Religious system of Satan arises out of the ruin of that Political system that had formed all the nations of the world into one chartered system.  This is why old King Ahasuerus seemed to be so mixed up, confused and his word was no better than a drunk looking for a dime for his next drink.  That is the same character of the world political body we call the United Nations of today.  They will take the side of any person or nation that will bow to them, kiss that worthless ring, and bow to what they say.   

Remember that the Acrostics that we studied in that seventh chapter of Esther had the Sacred Name of our Heavenly Father, Both "YHVH" and "EHYH" [I AM THAT I AM] spelt foreword: you can count on it happening and it’s all within the will of our Heavenly Father.  "Our Lord was ruling to bring about the end, thus the acrostic is spelt by the final letters in that Hebrew sentence".  "Evil was determined against him [Haman]"          

Esther 8:1   "On that day did the king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' enemy unto Esther the queen.  And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was unto her,"  

Jesus warned us in Revelation 13:4 "And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, "Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him."  With Haman's system gone and hung on the gallows, the new world religious system will come to power.  Haman's system is no more, and God will allow it to simply disappear.  Why is these Kenites enemy gone?  Because, the enemy is now deceived into becoming part of their system.  Call king Ahasuerus Satan if you will, and Mordecai will be the controller of that new religious beast that will take it's place.  So who is Queen Esther in this story?  She has to be representing that great whore church of Revelation 17:1-7?  She sits on her scarlet colored beast, all decked out with her gold and precious stone’s, and drinking from her precious golden cup full of abominations and filthiness from her own abominations.  So what about the saints of God?  

Revelation 17:6, 7   "And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wandered with great admiration." ["admiration"? try wonder, will be completely shocked at how it could have happen.]  [6]  "And the angel said unto me, "Wherefore didst thou marvel?  I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns" " [7]  These "martyrs" were the two witnesses that we read of in Revelation 11:7-13.   

The church world today has this "woman", Esther, or what ever you want to call her, the savior of her people.  How did she get that praise?  On the blood of Haman, the very one that was in charge of the old system that was in place.  She did it by the elimination of all those that were part of the family of Haman, for that wife, those ten sons and daughters were also were done away with.  You become part of Esther and Mordecai's system or you simply are not in, nor can take part of this new system that will be established.  

Revelation  13:16-18  "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:" [16] "And that no man might buy or see, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." [17] "Here is wisdom.  Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." [18]  

"He" Satan and this beast system will cause every person on the face of this earth to worship Satan, and abide by the rules and fix their minds into giving service and obedience to this new beast system that Satan will rule over.  In other words, you become a child of Satan, or you don't function and take part in any manner of that world wide system.  Jesus warned you in Matthew 24:19 "And woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck in those days."   This is not talking about having a child, but giving yourself over to Satan and his ways as a religious whore, and doing Satan's service.   

Though this story is about a woman, Esther; and these three men, Mordecai, Haman, and the king, this is really revealing to us how it shall be in our generation.  That can't be to hard to understand when the Spirit of God is opening our minds to the truth of His Word.  After all, Jesus told us to learn the parable of the fig tree; learn who these Kneite’s are, and how they work.  There is no fruit on their tree, only leaves that shades the light of truth from the Word of God.  If you buy into their lies and false doctrine, they you become hid under that fig tree full of leaves.  Fruit comes only when the Holy Spirit opens your mind, so that the light of truth from God' Word is allowed to shine into your mind with understanding.     

Esther 8:2   "And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai.  And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman."  

Of course when Esther and Mordecai is allowed to kill off all those that were enemies to them, Haman and his family, this poor king is left in confusion.  After all everything that he has done to this point in time, he has either done while in a drunken state, or tricked by those that give council to him.  In the book of Esther, the king's ring is nothing but a false sense of authority.  Notice that the king is never in charge, but those under him that trick him into doing what he does.   

Revelation 13:5   "And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two month."  

As we continue, we will see Mordecai was given great powers over all the kingdom, even greater than the king to a point.  The reason such great power came, is that this power was used to worship the dragon Satan.  In this case, Satan is their father in this world age, so why would these Kenites not give power over to Satan, in his role as the dragon.  The power shift here is from the political side of Haman, to the religious beast that shall rise up from that deadly wound of that political beast, Haman.   

Jesus has told us that this time would be shortened in Matthew 24:21, 22   "For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be." [21]  "And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the Elect's sake those days shall be shortened." [22] That "forty two month" period was shortened to five months, as recorded in Revelation 9:5, 10.  

In this period then, we are speaking of here in Esther where Mordecai will rule over the beast system will be for a five month period of time.   

Esther  8:3   "And Esther spake yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he had devised against the Jews."  

Unlike the purity of Vashti that would not allow herself to be made a call girl before the men of the world, Esther will fall down and do any thing necessary to get her way.  Esther is seeking complete control over "her enemies", those that would put restrictions over the Kenites and their ways.   

Esther 8:4   "Then the king held out the golden sceptre toward Esther.  So Esther arose, and stood before the king."  

As the tears flowed from the eyes of Esther, the king's heart, just as his ring melted.  He held out the golden sceptre toward Esther, and gave her and her uncle Mordecai the right to do what they desired to do.  

Revelation13:7 "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kingdreds, and tongues, and nations."   

This is the power in the story of this book of Esther that King Ahasuerus turned over to Esther, in holding up this golden scepter.  You will either take the name and the number or you simply will not have anything to do with that religious system of these end times.  

Revelation 13:8   "And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world."  

That is exactly what this world age of flesh man is all about.  You enter it through the birthing process, from umbilical cord, through the womb of your mother.  And each soul born into this world age of flesh man has the right to chose between God and Satan.  That privilege is not granted to Satan, or any of his fallen angels that refused to enter it by this process.  This is what being born of the water, or birthing bag is all about, that is spoken of in Jude 6; "And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, He hath reserved the everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day."  

All human beings on this earth, whose names are not in the Lamb's book of life from the very first man placed on this earth, will worship Satan.  The foundation of this world age is that first earth age, as spoken of in Ephesians 1:4-7.  Then Jesus said in Revelation 13:9   "If any man have an ear, let him hear."  

Revelation 13:10   "He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword.  Here is the patience and the faith of the saints."  

Remember that this is the start of that religious beast system, and is the part that will bring down most Christians.  It is in the form of a Hebrew idiom, translated to Greek and then into English that is hard to understand.  This is simply saying that those that are destined to go into captivity shall become captive’s.  Satan will take them, and deceive them, and God will allow it to happen.  However they can and more than likely will be saved during the teaching in the Millennium age, when they are in their incorruptible bodies.   

Those that are destined to be killed will be killed.  We know them through the Scriptures as the two witnesses, for that is the sign of the final three and a half days of this world age of flesh man.  God election will be held captive by our Heavenly Father, and they will witness when called upon to do so, and it will be the Holy Spirit that will be the one that will be speaking through them.  Get it?      

Esther 8:5   "And said, "If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and the thing seem right before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews which are in all the king's provinces:"  

Of course it pleased the king, and the very commitment that this old king deceived Haman into believing he had, will now be given over to Esther to give to old uncle Merdecai to follow through on.  Within this story of Esther is the prophecy of how things will be in our generation.  It is going to happen, for God has put his thumb prints in this book to give a warning to His Election.  The Kenites and their father Satan will be performing this negative part of the plan of God in the final days of this earth age of flesh man.  Expect it to happen as it is written.      

Esther 8:6   "For how can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my People? or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?" "  

Esther 8:7   "Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew,  "Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have handed upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews."  

Did Mordecai lay hands on any of the Jews?  Not to this point in time, for they sat around for a full year casting lots to find the right day, and if it was in the plan of God to save the Jews for another plan, those lots would have never came up.  However the assumption was there in the mind of Esther, and Mordecai thought that it was for them very soon.  Within the "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" the process of fulfilling these acts of complete control were laid down centuries ago.  The system of gaining control is well set, and it is also recorded in the Word of God how it will be during this time of the great tribulation.     

Esther 8:8   "Write ye also for the Jews, as it liketh you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring: for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse." "  

There would be a problem here with this verse, had it not just been a story.  For at the time of this happening, the King himself is wearing this ring.  In the book of Daniel, after the plot was given, and carried out to put Daniel in the lions den; When Daniel came out of that den the king placed Daniel over the entire realm.  It was with the king's ring itself that the den was sealed, and closure was made of that den.  The Kenite scribes themselves caused the king to be entrapped into doing this act that would in the end seal their own doom.  

Daniel 6:17    "And the stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel."  

These Kenite scribes knew that this king had the habit of changing his mind, and the law, from one moment to another.  That is why each of them sealed it with their own rings also.   

Esther  8:9   "Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that is , the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every People after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language."  

So stop and think for one moment, for this took place in a massive area, reaching from India to Africa , and over the scope of seventy different languages.  Yet in the historical records of this massive area, not one record of this ever taking place has ever been found from that period of time.  Not even our Lord Jesus Christ mentioned one world of this event of king Ahasuerus.  Yet Babylonian records are record and accurate going all the way back to the flood of Noah's day.    

Esther  8:10   "And he wrote in the king Ahasuerus' name, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by posts on horseback, and riders on mules, camels , and young dromedaries:"  

Esther 8:11   "Wherein the king granted the Jews which were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, both little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey,"  

Has any king or kingdom ever granted supreme authority to be given over to a foreign power on its own accord, without a war taking place, and its powers being stripped from it?  That is what this story here is Esther is all about.  Even though it has never happened to this date in time, it will in the near future.  That's why our understanding of how and why it happens is so important, for God will allow it to happen.  This King Ahasuerus is telling Esther and Mordecai to "kill whoever you want to of my people, men women and children, including my number one man Haman, and then let your people take total and complete power from me."      

Esther 8:12    "Upon one day in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, namely, upon the thirteenth day of the twelveth month, which is the month Adar."  

So this happened nine months after Haman received his orders to kill off the Jews, and this exact date was marked in this story as the end of the Jews.  It is also the exact day of this story that Haman and his family were destroyed.  They call this the day of "Purum", and because of this story, the Kenites will celebrate "Purim" as long as there is a age with flesh man in it.      

Esther 8:13    "The cop of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies."  

Esther 8:14    "So the posts that rode upon mules and camels went out being hastened and pressed on by the king's commandment.  And the decree was given at Shushan the palace."  

So if this was a true story, and of such importance why in the world would Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Jeremiah, or even our Lord Jesus Christ not mention one world of it in their writings.  After all Daniel was the number one leader in Shushan at the time, under the king.  "Darius simply means the maintainer," and when Babylon lost his power, Cyrus was there to give freedom to the people of the world, including the house of Judah .   

Esther 8:15   "And Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal appearel of blue and white, and with a great crown of gold, and with a garment of fine linen and purple: and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad."  

As we read of this event, lets go back to Revelation  13:11, 12   "And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon." [11]  "And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast whose deadly wound was healed." [12]  

This beast coming up out of the earth looks like the Lamb Jesus the Christ, yet he speaks like a dragon; because he is the dragon, Satan.  When Satan claims to be Jesus, most Christians will believe him.  Satan has all the wealth, sweet talk and what ever it takes to buy your soul for his use.  God will allow him to use it on you, just as He allowed Satan to have his way with Job.  Have you thought over what price it would take to buy your soul?  

When Satan and his system use all their power and authority to do what they do, it is because God gave it to them.  This One World Government of today was no accident, nor was the establishing of the Jewish state of that tiny nation of Israel .  Satan will give the power and the authority to allow that one world system that received it’s mortal wound to come back together, because it is no long an enemy.  All people on the face of the earth will worship Satan, and be in that system and willing to take part in it, or they will be part of the Elect of God.  Those that are part of the Election will know exactly what they are doing, for they have the truth of what is happening sealed away in their minds.  There are no fence straddling in that day, you are in it, or not.   

Revelation 13:13 , 14   "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men." [13]  "And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles [signs] which he had power [it was given him] to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live." [14]  

Satan will be allowed by God to bring all sorts of wonders and supernatural miracles at the snap of his fingers.  God will allow it all to take place.  The whole object then of this great tribulation is "DECEPTION"!  Satan will make an image of this "one world system" or religious beast, and breathe his life into that system.  There will be something symbolic created within the system that will cause the whole world to bow to it.  This also should remind us of that "image" of Daniel 3, under king Nebuchadnezzar.  Daniel was not present in Babylon , but in Shushan, but there were three there that would not bow to it.  I expect that this will represent the nation of those that will not bow to Satan's image that will be created in these end times.   

Revelation 13:15   "And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, tha the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed."  

We are living in a new technical generation that can create imaging in such a real manner that you can't tell the truth from a lie.  It is also portrayed in the news papers, magazines and air waves today.  However this takes place, rest assured the Kenites are in control of it, and will use and distort their actions for the sake of their father Satan.  The point of the entire thing is that you as an individual give your heart soul and minds over to Satan and to that religious system that will rule the earth.  Today the four hidden dynasties of Politics, Economics, Education, and Religion are completely controlled by the Kenites, and God is allowing it to happen.        

Esther 8:16    "The Jews had light, and gladness, and joy, and honour."  

Esther 8:17    "And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day.  And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them."  

My friend, even to this day the fear is there.  Have you noticed even once that within this story the name of Israel or the House of Judah has not be mentioned once in this entire book of Esther.  The only thing that would being any fear in these end times is the lack of knowledge and understanding of what is written in God's Word about these events.  "Jews" as used in this book of Esther, is # 3064, in the “Strongs Concordence,” in the Hebrew dictionary; "Yehuwdiy, either a resident of Judaea , or the son of Judah ".  In that Israel or House of Judah is not mentioned, it then is referring to those living in the land but not of the lineage of Israel or Judah.   

Those that would become Jews then would become known as "proselytes" even to our end times, and they will gather on such a massive scale that has never from the beginning of time ever came together in such a mass. It is important that you know what to call them and what they are when you speak to them, for they are called Kenites.  Remember these are the same ones who plotted and had our Lord Jesus Christ killed, yet they did not kill our Lord, for Jesus Christ willingly gave up His life to become the Sacrificial Lamb to take away the sins of all those that would believe on His name, and repent of their sins.
