The Seven Spirits of the Endtime Tyrant/Anti-Messiah: Chapter 2 – Part 2

​This week in our review of Isaiah Decoded we’ll continue with Chapter 2 – The Archtyrant, Candidate for Perdition. Dr. Gileadi implies a comparison of Adolph Hitler with the Archtyrant/Anti-Messiah. While Hitler committed some horrific things to humanity, which indeed shall be repeated at the end of the world, Hitler himself and others saw Hitler as a messiah and savior for the German people. Similarly, we will see the Endtime Tyrant see himself as a savior to humanity. Dr. Gileadi states that the Tyrant demonstrates character traits opposite that of God so by identifying God’s traits “we get a clearer idea of what kind of person the king of Assyria/Babylon is.” P.40

The Seven Spirits of Yehovah
If we are to understand what kind of person the Tyrant is then, we need to understand the character of God – Yehovah-Yeshua. Christianity has painted Yeshua as an emotionally enabling identity seemingly devoid of any sense of justice. Though God does love us, but like a good parent, He erects boundaries and sets consequences so that we can be successful, so that we can find life, liberty, and happiness in this world.
 
That being said, we must look beyond Christianity’s “god of love” and consider a more comprehensive view of God. That view of God is found in the symbolism of Israel’s temple lamp – the menorah. The menorah, with its seven lamps, represents the perfections and presence of Yehovah, which is expressed in the scriptures as the “spirits” or the seven attributes of God.
 
The word spirit is used in the scriptures in different contexts. We see God’s Holy Spirit that testifies of truth. We see that each person has a spirit in their physical bodies. And then we see that the word spirit can represent some type of behavior or trait. There are three key scriptures that link the  menorah with the seven attributes with God - Rev. 4:5, Isaiah 11:2 and Isaiah 42:1.
 
At Revelations 4:5, we see that there are seven lamps burning before the throne of God and that these seven lamps represent the seven spirits of God.
 
"And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God."
 
Here we can see direct connections to Israel’s tabernacle - seven lamps > Menorah, burning before the throne of God > Mercy Seat.
 
Next, we can go to Isaiah 11:2; and 42:1 to get the specific types of spirits,
 
"The Spirit of Jehovah will rest upon him--the spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the spirit of counsel and of valor, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah."
 
"My servant whom I sustain, my chosen one in whom I delight, him I have endowed with my Spirit; he will dispense justice to the nations."

THE SPIRIT OF YEHOVAH-YESHUA The Seven Spirits of the Lord

The Seven Spirits of the Archtyrant/Anti-Messiah
We can now take the seven attributes of God and construct the seven attributes or spirts of the Archtyrant/Anti-Messiah based on the premise that the Archtyrant possesses attributes opposite of God.

Seven Spirits of Yehovah-Yeshua	Seven Spirts of Archtyrant/Anti-Messiah
Wisdom	Foolish
Understanding	Uncomprehend (senseless)
Counsel	Misleading
Valor	Cowardice
Knowledge	Ignorant (mindless)
Fear (Respect)	Disrepectful
Justice	Unjust

The Seven Attributes

Foolish
The definition of Foolish is the unsoundness of an action or decision with regard to the application of experience, knowledge, and good judgment.

Uncomprehend
Uncomprehend includes the inability to grasp the nature, significance or explanation of something.

Misleading
Misleading is to provide unsound advice and can include the formulation of a poor plan of action.

Cowardice
Cowardice is a poor strength of mind or spirit that prevents a person to encounter danger with firmness and includes the characteristics of weakness, fear and lack of passion.

Ignorant
Ignorant is to be unaware of the truth in the past, present and future and that is gained through experience and the Spirit.

Disrepect
Disrespect is a intense sense of disrespect and dishonor for God and His law.

Unjust
​​Unjust is to administer unfairness and inequity.


Blinded and driven by his lust for power, praise, and property, the Archtyrant/Anti-Messiah uses his keen intellect and his charismatic persona to disregard the truth and manipulate the emotionally driven as he enslaves his followers under a false law system. 
 

“As God deals justly and mercifully with his people, so the archtyrant deals unjustly and unmercifully with them. As God is all-wise and understanding in ministering to his people, so the archtyrant mindlessly and senselessly tyrannizes them. By setting himself in opposition to God, the archtyrant follows a pattern of hate instead of love, of darkness instead of light.” “From the writings of the prophets, kabbalists have drawn up a model of a “Tree of Life” that depicts the attributes of God, such as wisdom, (strict) justice, mercy, and understanding.” P.40
