What would a false messiah hope to achieve by openly and publicly calling for Charles Mountbatten-Windsor, fake king of England, to hand the British crown to the true king of Israel?**
What would his motives be for this, if they’re not genuine?
** (exactly as prophesied, btw) (Gen 49.10)
Someone who is delusional can be “genuine” but
wrong at the same time. The question is not whether David Koresh or Benjamin Creme were knowingly duping people, indeed they may have been fully convinced they were “The One”, but time and circumstances proved them wrong.
I take the advice of Gamaliel as it has echoed down through history:
Acts 5:34-39 - King James Version
34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.
37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.
38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.
Verse 38 is the one I pick up on as all false christs will come to naught, 39 the one you might highlight as you may take up the idea that JAH(ill) will prevail as you cannot fight against God, but the indication from this passage is that time will tell.
