"YOUR MIGHTINESS WILL PROVE TO BE SIMPLY IN
KEEPING UNDISTURBED AND IN TRUSTFULNESS.
BUT YOU WERE NOT WILLING." (Isaiah 30:15).

The Lord, the Eternal, Israel's Majesty, declares: "Your safety lies in ceasing to make leagues, your strength is quiet faith. But this you would not have, you answered, No…" (Isaiah 30:15,16 Moffatt).

Consequently: "…upon that Day of doom and slaughter, when the foe's forts are falling" is "that Day when the Eternal heals His bruised folk". (30:25,26 Moffatt). How unusual! Healing and slaughtering on that same Day! God describes His work of extermination as "unusual". (Isaiah 28:21,22 NWT).

Those refusing to live in quiet faith, ceasing to make leagues (treaties with the nations), are those of whom God says: "A thousand will tremble on account of the rebuke of one; on account of the rebuke of five you will flee until you will have remained over like a mast on the top of a mountain and like a signal on a hill." (30:17). Those forming sects are, in this way, also making leagues with "a nation of no use to them... hence My name for it, 'Dragon Do-nothing'!" (30:6,7 Moffatt). Sects of the nations are commonly called Christendom, and are demonically controlled.

I WROTE DOWN THIS REBUKE FROM GOD IN THE
"LITTLE SCROLL" (Rev 10:8,9) "TO SERVE IN AFTER DAYS". (Isaiah 30:8).
"Now, go in and write this down, inscribe it on a scroll, to serve in after days as a witness for all time." The reason? For their rebellious faithlessness, for refusing "visions from their seers and true words from their prophets, who would have only smooth things told them, only illusions prophesied. 'Out of our way,' they cry, 'clear out from us, and trouble us no more with talk of Israel's Majesty!'" And the Eternal's answer: "…this guilt of yours shall split you, like a high wall bulging to break, till swiftly, suddenly, down it crashes as a man smashes a pitcher in pieces". (From Isaiah 30:8-14 Moffatt. See: "O'phel and the watchtower". Isaiah 32:14). (O'phel: Bulge, swelling, projection, eminence^●. 'Aid to Bible Understanding'. Pg. 1255).

To those "who have said to the ones seeing, 'You must not see,' and to the ones having visions, 'You must not envision for us any straightforward things. Speak to us smooth things; envision deceptive things. Turn aside from the way; deviate from the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease just on account of us"', for you "this error will become like a broken section about to fall down, a swelling out in a highly raised wall, the breakdown of which may come suddenly, in an instant." (From 30:10-13).

One may ask, "What causes the 'wall' to bulge and finally to break?" Notice that the wall is a high one, symbolising a commanding position over mankind. But this wall, "crashes as a man smashes a pitcher in pieces", in such a shattering way that it can no longer be used. (30:13 Moffatt). The watchtower of the sect of JWs is to become "bare fields, for time indefinite the exultation of zebras". Watchtowers were used to keep the land under observation, with a view to having advanced knowledge concerning people within its vicinity. But a watchtower that crashes in an instant, and is thereafter the exultation of zebras, symbolises a humiliating downfall in their 'land', and is the reward for their unfaithfulness to God. It is a deliberate removal of their hitherto religious observers who sought the shelter of "Sodom and Egypt" (the nations) rather than listen in quiet faith to Israel's Majesty, Almighty God. (Rev 11:8. Isaiah 30:1-7).

So, we have cleared out from them, and trouble them no more with talk of Israel's Majesty, for there is no "seed" among them. (Isaiah 37:30). Their fraudulent eminence^● is no more. Now we keep in expectation of Jehovah pouring more of His Spirit upon us: "…and the wilderness will have become an orchard", and the spiritual "seed" sown alongside "waters" of God "will certainly "take root downward and produce fruitage upward." For we have escaped and shall spread out from Mount Zion by the "very zeal of Jehovah of armies". (32:14-20) (37:30‑32). For we have approached a City of the living God. (Heb 12:22-24). You shall have proof of this: Read Isaiah 37:30-32 (Moffatt).
