      The Israel Truth

      What if you found out that you are an Israelite? Would it make a difference in your life? If you are of Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Scottish or Scandinavian origin, then you are, you know! And you could be in for a real life changer.
      This may sound strange, even uncomfortable, but take the time to peruse this website beginning with this series of articles. It’ll be worth it.

An Open Letter to a Brother

ByBob Vermaat February 12, 2010January 15, 2016
Home / Current Writers / An Open Letter to a Brother

“And the Lord said unto Cain, where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not. Am I my brother’s keeper?” (Genesis 4:9)

Editor’s Note: In the Israel movement we have all experienced the disappointment of not getting others to open their eyes to the wonderful truth to which we have been blessed. And likely our good intentions have been met with derision on occasion. Sadly, all this means is that God has not yet seen fit to open all eyes to the message and we have to be content to simply sow the seeds and let them quietly lie until the day he chooses to remove the blinders from lost Israel. I like the way Mr. Vermaat said it in a postscript to his article, “All we can do is to keep those brothers and sisters in our prayers before God and let Him do all the hard work. Yet, we must never forget that we are our brother’s keeper.”

Dear Brother, I am sure that you will be surprised to receive this letter from me, for it is not often that I write you. You are probably thinking, “to what do I deserve this honour?”

Well, Brother, a short while ago I submitted your name for the mailing list of a Christian Israel Ministry. I am a regular subscriber of this ministry and I thought that you would be open and interested in the material. The particular organization is one that through diverse preachers and evangelists teaches the true identity of God’s people Israel today. Now, I am truly sorry that you cancelled the subscription after receiving only one issue and instructed the Ministry not to bother you further.

All that we teach and preach is Bible based and you can read all the details in Hosea, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Amos, etc. These are, of course, all Old Testament Scriptures but you can also find confirmation in the New Testament in Peter, Paul and James, to name just a few. Jesus Himself talked about “the lost sheep of the House of Israel”. Matt. 10:6, 15:24. Now, if He Himself came for the lost sheep of Israel, it stands to reason that those lost sheep must still be around somewhere. He also said to the Jews of His day that the kingdom would be taken from them and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it. Matt. 21:43.

Please just think for a moment on this, “which nation or nations do bear the fruits of the Kingdom?” You will of course point to the present State of Israel, because this is what you have been taught, but if you approach this question in an open way, you may come to the realization that it is none other that the nations of Anglo Saxondom, such as England, Holland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, among others. Now, hey brother, I hope that you will keep reading for this is where it gets exciting. God told us He would scatter the people of Israel to the four corners of the world for their apostasy. He also stated that He would not lose track of a single one of them and that at the end times He would re-gather them (Jer. 23:8) under the Kingship of Jesus Christ our Lord and King. Read Jer. 3:31-36 also. I don’t think anything could be clearer. The regathering has already taken place, in part, in such countries as the USA, Canada and in the Southern Hemisphere. That is why those countries were so blessed and prosperous until we again started to lose our way and forgot the Lord our God. This is the reason these countries are now in such a decline and in such turmoil.

So, Brother, do not forget that we are in the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jer. 30:7) and also, as the Apostle Paul wrote in 2Thes. 2:3, “There will be a falling away in the last days”. I am sure that you are familiar with these Scriptures. You may not like to hear this but the re-gathering is not in the land of Palestine, in the nation of Israel, at least at this time. Those that live there are by and large not even of the blood and lineage of Abraham, but of Turkish-Mongolian blood. This they themselves have so stated in numerous writings of their own. Please understand it is still the battle for the Birthright between Jacob and Esau. In 1Cor. 15:17 Paul writes in part “Behold, I show you a mystery”. Well Brother, now I will try to show you a mystery. When Christ returns to set up His Millennium Kingdom the resurrected believers and the believing remnant yet alive will meet Christ in the air, not to go to Heaven as some believe, but to meet Him as He is returning to earth. This is just as we would meet someone at the airport who is coming to visit and then take them to our home. So, you see, there will be no Rapture of the Saints (sorry).

God’s Kingdom will be on earth and not in Heaven as so many church denominations teach. In 2 Sam. 7:16 we read that God made a Covenant with David and one important clause is that His throne would be established for ever and that He would never lack an Heir on the throne. Gen. 49:10, Jer. 33:17. Christ will come to reclaim that throne, which is His by right. So, it stands to reason that that throne must still be somewhere in existence on the earth, otherwise God would have broken His own Covenant with David. Well, Surprise! Surprise! It is still around and it is to be found in England. So, if it is in England it must stand to reason that there are Covenant People still living there. Remember the Jews never had another king after the Babylonians destroyed Zedekiah and his kingdom. Read 2Kings 25.

In Ezekiel 17: 22&23 we read about a tender twig being cropped off and planted in a high mountain. This prophecy is in regard to the throne. When King Zedekiah’s sons were killed and Zedekiah himself was made blind, there remained two daughters alive (Jer. 41:10 – 43:6) in the care of Jeremiah the prophet. The names of those daughters were Scota, the youngest and Tea-Tephi, the eldest. Jeremiah together with Baruch, his scribe, took the girls by way of Egypt (Jer.43:7) to Spain and later the oldest daughter to Ireland, where the throne was re-established. So, Brother, the Throne of David, indeed as 1 Chron. 29:33 tells us, is the Throne of the Lord, and it has been in the British Isles ever since the turnover. He who has eyes to see, let him see and he who has ears to hear, let him hear.

In Ezekiel 3: 17-21 we are told to be watchmen. If we fail to warn our brother we will be held accountable, but when we do warn him and he rejects our warning, then he will be accountable for his own actions. We will have done our job. So, dear Brother, that is the reason that I had the Christian and Israel Message material sent to you, because I am concerned for your spiritual welfare and salvation.

In our present day society and world situation it is time to read and study God’s word. Believe me, it is time to think outside the box and come to your own conclusions by studying God’s word with an open mind. Once you understand that you are an Israelite the Bible will take on a whole new meaning and you will realize that it was and is written to Israel and Israel only. (Amos 3:2). It is a continual story and history about a chosen servant people that God has called out from among all the other people.
With this in mind I hope that you will be open-minded enough to take this letter for what it means, namely our concern for you. If you choose to ignore all that I have said herein, so be it, but if you are willing and interested enough to look into some of the things that I have tried to point out to you, so much the better. God Bless, Your Loving Brother.

Bob Vermaat

Bob Vermaat’s column "A Christian Israelite View" has drawn a wide following and is often reprinted in other publications. A retired carpenter, he and his wife came to the message after reading an article in a newspaper, an article that instantly led them to the truth. That was thirty years ago and it began his mainly one on one ministry of spreading news of the Gospel of the Kingdom and the Israel Truth. He attributes his growing knowledge partly through brief associations with such scholarly pastors such as Karl Schott, Sheldon Emry, Robert Record, George Southwick and Bob Bell. We are indeed pleased that approximately two years ago Bob agreed to become president of this Association and he has proved his teaching abilities through meetings that he chairs during Sunday services. He is also an accomplished Gospel singer and inspires those of us who are fortunate to listen. A modest man, he understands that each time he sits down to study Scripture, a new understanding comes to life and he is always astounded by what he learns.
