History Lesson—from Gideon to Trump, part 2
In the past several lectures, we are seeing how Mystery Babylon got established in the United States. In the early decades of our republic they—the Mystery Babylonians—had suffered several temporary setbacks. And that is where we are presently in these studies.
We are looking at our history with different eyes now, not with the eyes and minds which were indoctrinated in the tens of thousands of American schools, such as the Ohio State University from which I matriculated in 1975.
And I too, like almost all graduates of “higher” education, came out of the university with my mind saturated with a Marxist, socialist-collectivist worldview and mindset. But I did not know that at the time.
I proudly received my diploma with a degree in broadcast journalism and public relations and I thought I was highly educated. But within a year after my graduation, God showed me I was instead highly indoctrinated and brainwashed.
Nevertheless, God has ultimately used the talents He gave me, in writing, in journalism and public relations, to be one of His tools to teach His word, to teach the Bible, which must include history in order to be most effective.
It is a fascinating pursuit to discover true history. History comes alive; it is full of meaning for our everyday lives. It is indispensable for the preservation of our God-given liberties.
It is my prayer and hope that I am able to convey that excitement about learning true history to our listeners and readers. So back to the point.
Our people have strayed from God throughout the centuries. Consequently, they found themselves in bondage to various nations: the Egyptians, the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Greeks, the Romans, all the way down through the centuries to the den of thieves and murderers today whom the Bible calls Mystery, Babylon the Great.
Then, after the people are taught their history and they realize their egregious national sins, they can then turn from their wicked ways and turn back to God once again through obedience to His divine law. And then, God will send deliverers. In the book of Judges, one of the deliverers was a man named Gideon.
Incidentally, we were teaching about the story of Gideon back in the early 1990’s, but in recent months in my nearly-daily blogs, I have been re-teaching the story of Gideon, updating it for the 21st century.
The story of Gideon is so very clearly a parallel to where we are today. How so? Well, further on in the Scriptures, God prophesied through Isaiah how our deliverance in the latter days will occur. So that’s us and that is now.
Isaiah 10:25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.
We stop there so I can give you the context. This is a passage in which God is indignant and angry with His chosen people because of their wickedness and widespread disobedience to His law. And so He brings the alien Assyrian armies to invade and to punish Israel and Judah.
And here God tells how the punishment will come; and it did come to pass then, and there is yet an ultimate fulfillment in our era. God says it will last a little while and His divine anger will cease and the Assyrians will be destroyed. How so? Verse 26.
26 And the LORD [Yahweh] of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him [the Assyrians] according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: …
The verse goes on, and we have elucidated that entire passage in detail in other lectures, but for our purpose here, the dot we can connect is when we understand that the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb is a reference to the deliverance brought about by God through Gideon in the book of Judges, chapter 6.
So let’s connect more dots. All that is how the ancient history we learn in the book of Judges connects with the prophecy in Isaiah. And then, we can understand how those dots connect with both the history of God’s people in America from our very beginning as a nation in 1776 right up to today as God has now—I believe—raised up deliverers.
The judges, the deliverers in ancient Israel were not perfect men or women, because there are no perfect men and women. Take a close look at the life of Gideon—oh, never mind, that’s what we’re doing in my present series of blogs about Gideon in the Barley in the Bible series.
All of the foregoing was a not-so-brief, but I trust it was an adequate explanation for newbies about why we teach so much history. I do not intend to be repeating that explanation every lecture, but it is here now so that we can simply refer back to it for the benefit of newbies.
Our overall subject matter has been and continues to be the eighth commandment. Thou shalt not steal. We are learning about what is undoubtedly the greatest case of theft in world history, and it has been going on for centuries.
It concerns how the money supply in any given nation comes into existence. There is a righteous way and there is a wicked way. The wicked way not only impoverishes the people of a nation but it enslaves them as well.
We shall commence here at that point in American history where we left off in the previous lecture, which was the conflict between President Andrew Jackson and the international bankers. The Congressional charter for their privately-owned central bank expired in 1836. President Jackson saw to it in a most vigorous manner that the charter was not renewed.
That, of course, was a major setback for the money powers of Europe, led by the Rothschild family and their fellow conspiratorial families. In that lecture, we spent the last portion showing the remarkable parallels between President Jackson and President Donald J. Trump.
It is without a doubt—to those of us who have followed it closely—that President Trump is very purposefully following in the footsteps of President Jackson, from the portrait of Jackson in the Oval Office, to the precise legal and Constitutional moves Trump has been making to replace the Federal Reserve fraud system with honest money. More about that later in this lecture.
(To readers of this blog: that is precisely why we are putting this lecture in blogs right now: to show in real time—or as close to real time as we can produce it—how DJT is doing everything by the books.)
But if we needed more evidence of Trump following the Jackson pattern or model, I was delighted to find at the White House website this past week a recent post relating the story of Gen. Andrew Jackson’s great victory in the battle of New Orleans in late 1814 and into 1815. Those on our CD Ministry will recall that we covered that story two or three months ago.
As time goes on, it appears that President Trump is quite the student of history, or at least he is being informed by advisors who are, because he is not only following the pattern of President Andrew Jackson, but also of other presidents who opposed the central banks.
For example, Trump has also referred to President William McKinley, President James A. Garfield, and I believe I also heard him mention President Warren G. Harding. McKinley and Garfield opposed the central bankers and were assassinated and Harding’s death was questionable.
Recall from the last lecture that although the charter of the Second Bank of the United States was set to expire in 1836, the central bank’s supporters sought as far back as 1832 to try to get President Jackson to support the renewal of the bank’s charter well in advance.
In their meeting with Jackson in the White House, things apparently got very heated and ultimately, when the den of vipers—as Jackson called them—were shown the door out of the White House, they did not merely sulk off and sit on their hands.
Instead, they and their big bosses in London, Paris and Frankfort—in other words, the Rothschilds and their fellow central banker fraternity in Europe—they put plans into motion to further their long-term goal.
That long-term goal was to control the world through the control of money. Hello, Mystery Babylon! One of those plans which they seem to have immediately put into motion, we will discuss shortly.
Now, as I will be quoting from a number of sources, I must again advise my listeners that, as is our practice, we shall not take the time to recite our sources here, as that would tend to put listeners to sleep. And the whole idea of these lectures is rather, to awaken the people.
When I entered the United States Air Force in 1968, I underwent basic training outside San Antonio, Texas. Who can tell me what famous historic site is located there? (Hint: There was a movie made about the battle that occurred there.) Yes, it’s the Alamo. How many of you have been there? (Some in our live audience raised their hand.)

When I had a free day in basic training, I had the opportunity to visit the Alamo. I was surprised at how small the building was and it was sobering to see the actual place where about 200 men lost their lives fighting for Texas to be independent of Mexico.
The movie, The Alamo, came out when I was about 10 or 11 years old and I remember what an impression it made on my immature and developing mind. I had only seen one movie before that—which was a couple years before that—and that was with my mother.

Watching The Alamo, I was either by myself or with a friend, I can’t recall for sure, but John Wayne played Davey Crockett, and at that young age, I was horrified by the portrayal of the slaughter of the defenders of the Alamo.
Little did I know until many decades later, some of the backstory, which I will now share with you, and I would wager—if I were a betting man—that most of you were unaware of this also. So here is the rest of the story. These are some of the plans put into motion by the central bankers. Material in [brackets] is added by me.
QUOTE: Near the close of Jackson’s second term in office [early 1837], plans that had been made some time before—both military and economic—were put into force when, on March 5, 1836, Mexican troops led by Santa Anna engineered the fall of the Alamo, in San Antonio, Texas.
It is believed that Santa Anna was instructed to push northward to the Mason-Dixon Line and eastward to the Atlantic coast. Thus, the South would be ruled by Mexico, of which they [the European central bankers] were firmly in control. Other troops were stationed in Canada during this period and upon orders would be ready to invade all the territory north of the Mason-Dixon Line.
When their intended plans for the division of the United States did not succeed at this time, the Rothschilds then proceeded to punish the upstarts by causing the [financial] ‘Panic of 1837.’
Henry Clews, in his book, Twenty-Eight Years in Wall Street states that the Panic of 1837 was engineered because the charter of the Second Bank of the United States had run out in 1836.
Clews remarked that: ‘The Panic of 1837 was aggravated by the Bank of England when it in one day threw out all the paper connected with the United States’…END QUOTE
Skipping a couple paragraphs, this author continues where he is speaking of that central bank called The Bank of England, QUOTE:
Contrary to what the public is told, by refusing to credit American notes and stocks in the Panic of 1837, the Bank of England created financial panic among the holders of that paper.
This engineered maneuver enabled Rothschild agents, [George] Peabody and [August] Belmont, to reap a fortune in buying up depreciated stocks during the panic, and is a repeat of the system used time and time again by this dynasty in their manipulation of political and economic issues.
E. C. Knuth states the point very well in [his book] The Empire of the City: ‘The fact that the House of Rothschild made its money in the great crashes of history and the great wars of history—the very periods when others lost their money—is beyond question.’
END QUOTE {All the above from The Last Days of the Red Throne, by Des Thomas, pp. 33-34 ©1996}
So we have seen there that the Rothschild cabal had determined to split the United States into two countries—in order to more easily gain and maintain control of us—the upstarts in North America. It failed with Santa Anna. But as is natural for the vipers; they never give up.
(To be continued.)
