God's Fisherman - Satan's Hunters - Book Series Part 3 - "Chapter 1"

A day is coming, drawing so near — the prophet's words are being fulfilled. The times and seasons are at hand for the glorious arrival of the Son of Man. There lightning flashes the East and the West; the Earth will endure the Lord's test. Be saved by His name while He can be found; seek His face before the trumpet sounds. The day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. Before that day, keep your lamp burning. The day of the Lord is full of dread — in that day, who can endure? Oh Lord, Shalom.

Shabbat Shalom, everybody. My name is Chadwick Harvey. You have reached Faithful Performance, and we want to thank everybody for joining us on this beautiful Shabbat evening. I hope everybody is doing well as we look forward to this prophecy that we spoke about last night — the introduction to the prophecy of the fishermen and the hunters, which explains the rise of anti-Semitism and provides the biblical explanation for what we are seeing right now across the world.

We went through the introduction last night with an understanding of the Prophet Jeremiah — Jeremiah chapter 1, his commission, and Jeremiah chapter 16, which is the prophecy itself: the prophecy of the fishermen and the hunters. Last night we covered it on a surface level. Tonight, and again on Sunday night, we are going to go in depth through this prophecy and the things that correlate with it to help us understand what we are seeing today.

The fishermen fish the people back to Israel, and the hunters will eventually hunt them back — just as the Prophet Jeremiah has spoken. As I said before, this is not a pleasurable prophecy to speak about, but it is one that is necessary to understand in today's society. Why is anti-Semitism raging right now? Why are the nations raging against Israel? Why is anti-Semitism rising against the Jewish people? The Prophet Jeremiah explains that for us in Jeremiah 16, and we will tie all of the associated prophecies and understanding to what he is saying.

It is going to be a long evening. We are going to try to go through seven chapters of the book associated with this prophecy, which we wrote in 2018 — called *God's Fishermen, Satan's Hunters: The Unspoken Biblical Prophecy That Is Terrorizing the World*. We went through some of the escalation we saw in 2014 and 2015 last night, and we will get into that more tonight, along with why Jeremiah wrote this prophecy in the first place. We will read from the book — it will be something like an audio book reading — and we will try to be as thorough as possible while moving at a reasonable pace.

If you are not familiar with the Prophet Jeremiah, he wrote this prophecy because of the Everlasting Covenants. It is so important to realize that the prophecy states that at the end of the age, the Lord is going to fish the Jewish people back home, and then He will send the hunters to hunt them back as well — to provoke them back to the Promised Land, because of the Everlasting Covenants. So we have to understand: why did Jeremiah write this prophecy?

The Everlasting Covenants are so important to understand — not only for this prophecy, but because they are God's Plan of Salvation. If we do not understand the Abrahamic Covenant, the Davidic Covenant, and the New Covenant, and how those three work together, we will not understand God's Plan of Salvation. Of course, Yeshua is our salvation, and that is good enough — but to understand the depth of the Bible, how all of these things work with Jew and Gentile, why God made the covenants throughout history, whether we are grafted into those covenants — all of these things are supremely important for both Jew and Gentile to understand. Through them we can understand Jeremiah's prophecy, understand the one new body, the one new man. So it is extremely important.

Tonight we are going to hit several topics that go with this prophecy. We will begin with the Everlasting Covenants, then we will read about the prophecy itself — the fishermen and the hunters — to prove that this prophecy has not been fulfilled in history and that it began to be fulfilled about 75 years ago in 1948. We will also examine who God's original fishermen were, and who were Satan's original hunters. The Prophet Isaiah says that God declares the end from the beginning — so we have to understand the beginning in order to understand the end. That is why it is important to understand the Torah first. It gives us foundational knowledge of the covenants, the Abrahamic Covenant, the pure royal lineage, and other essential matters. Torah is Bible 101. We must start in the beginning to understand the end, just as the Prophet Isaiah said.

We are also going to hit on the mystery of Aliyah, which ties into the lunar eclipses seen on the Lord's feast days four times in the last 500 years — and there has been an Aliyah every time that has occurred. We will cover that as well, then move into the End of the Age fishermen, Satan's End of the Age hunters, and the Aliyah that occurred in 2014 and 2015.

Shabbat Shalom, everybody, as we enter into this beautiful time with the Lord. When you look at the world today — the protests, the pro-Palestinian demonstrations not only in the Middle East and North Africa, where that is more expected, but in Europe and in America — you are seeing a rise of anti-Semitism unlike anything we have witnessed before. Two of the most populous areas of the Jewish people in the world are in Europe, especially France, and in America, and the anti-Semitism rising in both places ties directly into this prophecy of provoking the Jewish people back to the Promised Land, just as the Prophet Jeremiah spoke in Jeremiah 16.

Again, thank you very much for joining us. This is not a pleasurable prophecy to speak about, so please bear with me tonight and on Sunday night as well. We will work through it and come to understand what we are seeing today in relation to Jeremiah 16 and the anti-Semitism rising across the world.

The book is called *God's Fishermen, Satan's Hunters: The Unspoken Biblical Prophecy That Is Terrorizing the World*. It is available as a free ebook on my website at faithfulperformance.com. I also have *God's Prophetic Timeline* there, which ties into this as well — and on Sunday night we will be going through much of that book alongside this one, including Daniel's prophecies in the Book of Daniel. All of the ebooks are free: *God's Fishermen, Satan's Hunters*, *God's Prophetic Timeline*, the purification book, and *God's Calendar* with *From the Cross to the Crown*. The music is free as well, so please help yourself if you enjoy it.

Now, as we begin, the first chapter of the book is titled "God's Everlasting Covenants." We cannot hold to replacement theology, because replacement theology will lead to replacement eschatology. We will not understand what the war is about, and we will not understand God's Plan of Salvation, if we do not understand His Everlasting Covenants. As I have said before, Yeshua is our salvation, and that is good enough for someone starting out. But to truly understand the depth of the one new body — the one new man — and what the war is about at the end of the age, we have to go scuba diving. We cannot be snorkelers only, just on the surface. It is beautiful there, it is great, but we want to go deeper. "Deep calls unto deep," as the Psalmist says. We want to go deep with the Lord to understand these beautiful mysteries — to have the revelation of them, to hold the right eschatology and the right theology together, so that we are free from replacement theology and replacement eschatology.

This is the reason I believe we were led to make Chapter 1 about God's Everlasting Covenants. This is the reason Jeremiah wrote the prophecy. There would have been no reason for him to write it apart from the Everlasting Covenants. Jeremiah knew the Torah better than any of us know it, so of course he understood how important the Everlasting Covenants were. He wrote about the New Covenant — he prophesied about it in Jeremiah 31 — so of course he understood the Abrahamic, the Davidic, and the New Covenant, and that is why he was chosen to write his portion of it there.

We will now begin reading. To completely understand the prophecy of the fishermen and the hunters, it is a prerequisite to first understand the premier reason it was prophesied: God's Everlasting Covenants. In the absence of the Almighty's eternal promises, there would be no reason for this incredible yet sobering prophecy to be proclaimed, because it absolutely correlates with them. As we proceed, it is essential to understand that God's Everlasting Covenants are the concrete foundation of His salvation plan for Jews and Gentiles, and all believers should have wisdom and knowledge of them.

Before the foundation of the world, the Almighty had a sovereign, divine, and righteous Plan of Salvation for both Jews and Gentiles. God specifically chose one man — Abraham — whose seed would produce a great nation known as Israel, to commence His awesome and faithful Plan of Salvation. Abraham's original name was Abram, which prophetically means "great father," or "father of many."
