1. Question and Answer: Non-Israelites becoming Hebrews?
Question: Non-Israelites becoming Hebrews?
Subject: Re: "Brit-Am Now"-194: Important
> Shalom! I have a question for you. America has become a "melting pot"!
Could certain "races, creeds etc." have been "grafted into the Lost
Tribes"?? I only ask because I agree with you as to who the Lost 10 Tribes
are. I also believe that you are on the right track. Yet I believe that
many "peoples" of other nations and races believe exactly as you do (such
as myself), have been grafted into "The Lost Tribes" that make up "The
whole Nation of Israel"! Making them Israelites too!
Answer: We have not gone into the subject matter deeply enough.
Nevertheless one can say that, First of all it is obvious from the Bible
that anyone from anywhere who does the will of God is accepted before the
Almighty. As for being considered part of Israel there are Biblical
passages that support your opinion:
e.g.
[Isaiah 56:3] NEITHER LET THE SON OF THE STRANGER, THAT HATH JOINED
HIMSELF TO THE LORD, SPEAK, SAYING, THE LORD HATH UTTERLY SEPARATED ME FROM
HIS PEOPLE: NEITHER LET THE EUNUCH SAY, BEHOLD, I AM A DRY TREE.
[Isaiah 56:4] FOR THUS SAITH THE LORD UNTO THE EUNUCHS THAT KEEP MY
SABBATHS, AND CHOOSE THE THINGS THAT PLEASE ME, AND TAKE HOLD OF MY COVENANT;
[Isaiah 56:5] EVEN UNTO THEM WILL I GIVE IN MINE HOUSE AND WITHIN MY
WALLS A PLACE AND A NAME BETTER THAN OF SONS AND OF DAUGHTERS: I WILL GIVE
THEM AN EVERLASTING NAME, THAT SHALL NOT BE CUT OFF.
[Isaiah 56:6] ALSO THE SONS OF THE STRANGER, THAT JOIN THEMSELVES TO THE
LORD, TO SERVE HIM, AND TO LOVE THE NAME OF THE LORD, TO BE HIS SERVANTS,
EVERY ONE THAT KEEPETH THE SABBATH FROM POLLUTING IT, AND TAKETH HOLD OF MY
COVENANT;
[Isaiah 56:7] EVEN THEM WILL I BRING TO MY HOLY MOUNTAIN, AND MAKE THEM
JOYFUL IN MY HOUSE OF PRAYER: THEIR BURNT OFFERINGS AND THEIR SACRIFICES
SHALL BE ACCEPTED UPON MINE ALTAR; FOR MINE HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED AN HOUSE
OF PRAYER FOR ALL PEOPLE.
[Ezekiel 47:22] AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, THAT YE SHALL DIVIDE IT BY LOT
FOR AN INHERITANCE UNTO YOU, AND TO THE STRANGERS THAT SOJOURN AMONG YOU,
WHICH SHALL BEGET CHILDREN AMONG YOU: AND THEY SHALL BE UNTO YOU AS BORN IN
THE COUNTRY AMONG THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL; THEY SHALL HAVE INHERITANCE WITH
YOU AMONG THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL.
Also,
[Isaiah 45:14] THUS SAITH THE LORD, THE LABOUR OF EGYPT, AND MERCHANDISE
OF ETHIOPIA AND OF THE SABEANS, MEN OF STATURE, SHALL COME OVER UNTO THEE,
AND THEY SHALL BE THINE: THEY SHALL COME AFTER THEE; IN CHAINS THEY SHALL
COME OVER, AND THEY SHALL FALL DOWN UNTO THEE, THEY SHALL MAKE SUPPLICATION
UNTO THEE, SAYING, SURELY GOD IS IN THEE; AND THERE IS NONE ELSE, THERE IS
NO GOD.
We explained in "Joseph" and briefly in "Origin" that this verse is
referring to the descendants of African slaves and it appears that in the
last days they too will acknowledge the God of Israel.
Also historically I now agree with Steven Collins and others that people of
Hebrew descent came to North America before Columbus and intermixed with
the Amerindians and now intermix with People of Israelite descent from the
West.
In addition, offshoots from the Lost Ten Tribes and "Captive Jews" were
scattered all over the world and towards the Last Days will somehow find
their way back to their brethren and be delivered with them.
[Amos 9:9] FOR, LO, I WILL COMMAND, AND I WILL SIFT THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL
AMONG ALL NATIONS, LIKE AS CORN IS SIFTED IN A SIEVE, YET SHALL NOT THE
LEAST GRAIN FALL UPON THE EARTH.
The dispersed of Israel and the exiled will always stay together or if not
will somehow intermarry with each other or if not their children (even from
mixed marriages) will still be counted as Israel. We do not know everything
(Quote of the year?). Our studies and what we have shown of them
demonstrate very well that somehow or other most of the northern Tribes
managed to stay together. A Talmudic sources say that the Jews of Judah
were destined to be dispersed all over but the Ten Tribes to remain
together in one or two or three places or more places but at all events as
coherent entities.
Brit-Am is not a religion. Our task is not to "save" people though like
everybody else we also have to do what we can to help others. Our primary
purpose however is to show who the Lost Ten Tribes are today in the sense
as to where the majority of them are to be found and make their presence
felt.
2. Vikings from Lebanon and Israel or DNA research mistake?
Most scientific findings are not accidents. Some are. Most are not. Usually
the researcher knows in advance what he expects to find and he sets out to
find it. Anything else he tries to put aside. He has to. This is how
research gets done in every field.
It may not sound objective or "scientific" but that is how things go and
always have.
The point is that proofs confirming Brit-Am claims are often buried,
ignored, or denied.
The following case is an example.
The researchers claimed they initially made a mistake and they may well
have done so.
But even if they had not have made any mistakes there is a good chance that
they would have acted as they did since the alternative raises too many
questions not in accordance with present conventions.
In our book "The Tribes" we indicated that the Vikings of Scandinavia were
primarily derived from the Tribes of Dan, Naphtali,
and Asher. The Tribe of Asher at one stage possessed most of what is now
present-day Lebanon.
Recently researchers examined Viking DNA remains and concluded that a good
portion of them must have originated in Lebanon (which is what Brit-Am
says) but they then "realized" this could not be so, aand re-examined their
findings and found that "mistakes" had been made.
I found this note on an academic list:
<<Here is an article about the pitfalls of genetic analysis. The
article states that British and Danish molecular biologists found
that 50% of Vikings came from the Middle East. Since this could not
be right, they reexamined the evidence and found that certain areas
of the genetic material, which is particularly important for the
determination of the origin of a person were damaged, giving wrong
results. cheers, D >>
he then gives this reference which is a German language magazine article:
http://www.netzeitung.de/servlets/page?section=984&item=226764
The article says that initially the researchers concluded that the Vukungs
must have
come from Lebanon (territory of the Israelite tribe of Asher) but then
realized they were mistaken.
The article quotes from Alan Cooper von der University of Oxford in the
American Journal of Human Genetics.
I found a brief on the web that might be the article spoken of. The brief
told me almost nothing.
I might be able to obtain the article from a Hospital Research Library in
Jerusalem.
Incidents like the one spoken of, the revising of inconvenient
unconventional conclusions, and so on
are referred to in the Literature from time to time.

4. Letter from Jeremy Burningham.
Brit-Am supporter Jeremy Burningham of Ontario, Canada, sent the
following letter to certain important personages in the Jewish world
together with some books of ours.
We think the letter is worth reading:
Dear XX
God elevated Joseph to virtual ruler of Egypt so he could save
his father and brethren from famine. As well God put Joseph in the position
to united the family of Israel again. Joseph also saved the known world
from starvation. We know that the lives of the Patriarchs in Torah are a
reflection of what will be in the future. One must come to terms with the
fact that the elevated status of Joseph in Egypt and his ability to protect
his father Israel and unit his brothers is where we would find Joseph
today. Genesis 41:40 Thou shalt be over my house and according unto thy
word shall all my people be ruled.Egypt was the world super power when
Pharaoh said these words to Joseph. Genesis 41:42 And Pharaoh took off his
ring from his hand, and put it upon Josephs hand, and arrayed him in
vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.Joseph in end
times will be predominate in the world and will be a world leader and power.
It has been said many times and pondered on numerous occasions
that the Lost Tribe of Joseph which are descendent from Ephraim and
Mannaseh are the people of the United Kingdom.
One does not have to search very far in United Kingdoms history to find how
steeped in Israeli lore that the United Kingdom is. Like the Legend of the
stone of Sconewhich is legend to be the stone, Jacob laid his head on in
Genesis 29:11 and dreamt of angels ascending and descending. This stone is
placed underneath the Coronation Chair of the monarchs of Britain where it
remains today.With this legend of the Stone of Scone and many other legends
that connect the United Kingdom to Israel there must be an element of truth
and a spark which gave birth to such legends.
Today we can see that Jews live free in the predominate
nations which were born out of the empire of the UK. America, Canada,
Australia. Where hence the Jews were persecuted in all the other nations of
their Diaspora. There are almost as many Jews living in America presently
as there is in the entire state of Israel. The Jews have flourished amongst
the people of UK origin and their nations. There must be a connection.
People and nations born out of the UK base their societies on laws and
respect for freedom which was born out of the Bible. Could one imagine a
world without America or Britain defending the human race from the darkness
of Germany in both World Wars. Or Russia and China with their self serving
evil empires. Did God not tell Abraham that his seed would be a blessing
onto nations, Genesis 18:18 and bring charity and justice to the world
Genesis 18:19. God promised Abraham that his seed would inherit the gate of
his enemies, Genesis 22:17-24:60. Today we see Britain and her daughters in
control of central Asia in Afghanistan with a large build up of military
might with the capability to strike in any direction. America, Britain,
Canada and Australia control and patrol the oceans of the world. Britain
controls the Straight of Gibraltar with their military. America the Panama
Canal and military bases in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Yemen, Kuwait, Turkey.
Britain and her daughters have a massive naval armada in the Persian Gulf.
Britain and her daughters have completely surrounded Israel and are and
will protect Israel with every ounce of force that they have at their
disposal. Britain and her daughters are the only people who fit the
description of the promise from God to Abraham that Abraham's seed would
inherit the gates of his enemies.Who were the nations that were the key
instigators which brought about the State of Israel in 1948. Britain and
her daughters. Israel is back on the world map via the power and will of
the decedents of the UK.
People often over look this factor as well. That the majority
of Anglo Saxon, North American, and UK Christians are Zionists and desire
the reunification of all the tribes of Israel.
God blessed Jacob and promised Jacob a healthy climate,
agricultural plenty and mineral riches Genesis 27;28. Jacob repeated the
end times blessing to Joseph Genesis 49:25 with the abundance of the earth.
Jacob was also promised that he would be the master of his brethren and
rule over nations Genesis 27:29. This blessing was past down to Joseph as
ruler of nations because he received the blessing of the first born until
Messiah ben David. Another blessing to Joseph was an abundance of off
spring Genesis 49;22. The United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Ireland,
Wales,) and her daughters, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South
Africa and Territories, have a world wide population of 600 million world
wide 1/10 of the earths population is of UK origin. One would assume this
must be a blessing.
One must ask why, why the UK and her daughters have been so
blessed with wealth, power, stability, security, freedom, huge population,
military might and is the vanquisher of Edom (Germany Italy) and at one
time the worlds largest land mass empire. Who does the Tanach say the
people of the UK are. If the decedents of the UK are not Joseph then, who
are they. Who are these people who have been blessed with the abundance of
the planet. Whos countries cover all four corners of the earth. Who have
had a long history of fighting injustice in the world. And today in our
time to the anger of many nations who act with injustice, Britain and her
daughters are the policemen of the world. Why does the Tanach stay so
silent on these people if they are not Joseph's children who have been so
blessed with the bounty of the world and are the adventures that have
conquered it and harnessed it for their use. Who are the nations that bring
the poorest of the world and the most oppressed to come and emigrate to
their lands. Who are these people who base their societies on law and
freedom for the responsible individual. When you read the Blessing of
Joseph and the Blessing of Ephraim and Mannaseh, only the United Kingdom
and daughters are the people who fit this prophesy given to Joseph.
The books enclosed with this letter will leave you with no
other conclusion who Joseph is. I invite you to research all the non bias
academically oriented references in Lost Israelite Identity and read the
scriptures and commentary in Biblical Truth. Once you do the only answer
you will be able to come up with of the identity of the Anglo Saxon people
is they are of Israelite origin. The Anglo Saxons who are Israelites that
moved North West ward into Europe after the Assyrian exile and disappeared
into the mists of time so that Gods master plan will come to pass. And that
Israel would truly be a light onto nations. The Tanach, Talmud, Rabbis,
Roman and Greek authors and general history prove without a shadow of a
doubt who Joseph is in the world today and where the Lost Tribes are
located in our time. The time of awakening is now. The time to unite Judah
and Joseph is at hand.
Thank you for your time
Sincerely
Jeremy Burningham.
