Yah’s Last Word to America: The Blasphemy of False Identity

By Dr. Desmond A. Mattocks

If only “we the people” of America could understand that the American Revolution was only a mere political upheaval compared to the moral war we now face. We are divided in morals and ethics more than in culture, wherein truth is more an option than a necessity.

Ever since time began, the most celebrated nations have been those that have abridged the exorbitant chasm between morality and secularism, between feelings and principles, righteousness and unrighteousness. America appears to have joined the infamous tradition of derelict and ungodly nations that have surrendered their integrity for power and wealth, like ancient Babylon.


In this The Last Word to America, the intent is to paint a living portrait of the ways in which America has abandoned divine counsel—how Washington, significant events, and personalities have shaped personal experience. It explores music and the perverse arts, through which philosophers are damaging our young people and the families of America are sullied.

And the counsel of Ahitophel, which he counseled in those days, was as if a man had inquired at the oracle of Yahweh: so was all the counsel of Ahitophel both with David and Absalom (2 Samuel 16:23).

It is not at all uncommon to hear the unwise vituperation and laudation of those, who believe that Divine utterances are now optional. In its prosperity, Uncle Sam (America) has not remembered that Yah is Sovereign over heaven and earth.

And yet, we wish for you to know that Uncle Sam is unwell, having been in poor moral and ethical health for some time. Indeed, we have watched Uncle Sam become immature with power, age and wealth, wherein he is now breathing without ethics.

His condition is made more contemptable by recent legislative rulings, in which his indifference has been shown toward the institutions of holy matrimony and the Seventh-day Sabbath, the two pillars established in Eden by Yah. Evidently, Judicial activism has also played its part in the rejecting of divine laws, when America should have shown respect. Yah will not be mocked! Galatians 6: 7

Therefore, we humbly ask for your prayers that Uncle Sam might see the need to repent of his many sins and as a result be preserved through this period of lawlessness.

Revelation18: 23 presents a solemn picture, as to how drug sorcery will deceive many.

And the light of lamp shall not shine in you any more at all. And the voice of the Bridegroom and the briefed shall not be heard in you any more at all. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth, for by your drug sorcery all the nations were lead astray Revelation 18:23 (Halleluyah Scriptures).

RESPECT AND GLORY TO YAHUAH

And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. So the people of Nineveh believe Yah, proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least of them (Jonah 3:4-5).

Even as the meek prophet Moses, early taken from a bulrush basket, was called by Yahuah on mission to the land of Egypt, such it seems is the nature of this work. After Yah spoke to him at the burning bush, which earned him the designation of lawgiver, he delivered the divine precept to pharaoh, Let My people go.

So now, one can hardly exaggerate the urgency of the need to let the erring people, who continue to behave as dullards and imbeciles, know the ways of their error. They have profaned Yah’s holy name, calling Him Baali, and not Ishi, (My Husband); (Hosea 2: 16). The same are intrigued by the sins that separate them from Yah. This book calls them to repentance and to give glory to King Yahuah.

The national and pervasive circumstances to which I refer are as serious as those in pharaoh’s time. Many are enslaved by feelings and duped by politics, yet are unwilling to heed divine counsel. History provides the imprimatur, and events validate the conscientious scrupulousness with which I have written.

The sins that accumulate in our collective memory, shown daily on television and printed in newspapers, have come mostly to agree with the Scriptures. In this, one cannot say which might be the most egregious of all the transgressions committed in the world. How then can we avoid an inescapable judgment?

The apostle Paul, in wanting to show Cretans the nuances of their notorious voracity and prevarication, chided them by quoting from the poet Epimenedes, saying: "One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians [Cretans] are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies" (Titus 1:12).

Had Paul lived in America, where it seems many are consecrated to the doctrines of fabulist men and even some proficient in folly, what would he say about the perfidious culture of rapacious cupidity and recondite avarice? Men and women of conscience must now cast off the cloak of diffidence and increasing nonchalance.

Perhaps Paul would have quoted the poet Langston Hughes:

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed—Let it be that great strong land of love Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme That any man be crushed by one above.

And then again, the evangelist called by Yahusha in Damascus, might well have quoted James Arthur Baldwin, the renown novelist, playwright, and activist: People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned.

And, should he continue with Baldwin, he would likely make salient the point of the nation’s enigma: American history is longer, larger, more various, more beautiful, and more terrible than anything anyone has ever said about it.

But if ever I were Paul in such circumstances—a commissioned itinerant minister—what would I say to a disorderly people? Yes, what would I say to a people whose faculties are elsewhere detained than on the things of Yah, made vacant by the love of money, entertainment, and self? The parchments on which the prophets wrote are tucked away and hardly ever read by the people today.

Perhaps I would say, "In the world book of math, America is the calculus, an abstruse and recherché subject, a puzzling equation, where stood an esurient crowd, in search of the solution, yet unattained. To understand the complexity of its workings is to study the humble beginnings from which it came, moving on and to great heights, where only the eagle now dares to fly?"

We must with courage rummage through those areas of human consciousness that have been educated to suppress the truth, thereby holding accountable, each man to the truth of Yah’s Word. In so doing, as a writer, one retains the integrity, which virtue affords in the probe of character. Therein, not as a prophet, but as a social observer, one sees the degree to which fawning has held truth from being spoken.

With the more deceptive the culture, poisoned by wrongful habits, so agile must the literary response to articulate the concern, and lucid the intent. This is more than a cultural story being told by a raconteur. It’s far more serious. Sin is rampant, identity is stolen, decency is threatened and souls are being eternally weighted. Ironically, those, who have least cause to mourn are often the ones grieving over the nation’s soul.

This book was never intended to be a pulpit, neither have I sought for it to become a theatre, but if I must preach about the scenes of our social interactions and spiritual destiny, which compel me to the impulse of a response, I will do just that. Cliché conversations have robbed us of good communication, at a time when there is much talking but not enough listening, either in Washington of in the nation’s churches.

Too shallow are the responses to the deep unanswered questions about blacks’ mistreatment at the hands of their white captors, which for long have plagued America. Long considered the apogee of destress in the nation, racism, many displaced blacks have found that life is not the elegant bouquet of tulips that certain other cultures have enjoyed and daily speak about.

While still living among their captors, many blacks are commissioned by distress to ponder their lost identity, language, culture and indeed their religion. Regardless of the successes claimed by some, many still live as expatriate from Zion, the home of the Hebrew Negro Israelite. When we remember the Temple built by our ancestor king Solomon, his son Menelek, whom he bore with the Queen of Sheba, we are prone to weep, (Psalm 137).

Should we not have hung our harps, saxophones, guitars, and banjos on the willows of New Orleans? Why did Louis Satchmo Armstrong, Fats Domino, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald and Billy Holiday sang and played for their captors? They took the superlative gifts, the talents, given by Yah, to entertain their captors in a strange land, who whipped, taunted and mistreated them. Why?

And so, we still weep when we remember life in Zion, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guinea, and Negro Land. By deception, they with force took us away from our homeland, only to teach us war and brutality. Who then will refuse to sing with us the song of our Redemption? Who would be so cruel in thought?

The heights that the laboring black men and women of America reached but did not keep were not attained by sloppy work or sudden flight. While their captors ate and slept, the slaves were toiling upward day and night. Why so solemn a thought? It expresses America’s early trust in Yah is all but gone, Ichabod! The glory of Yah is gone, which might invoke a tear tone sound—your country is left to you desolate, (Matthew 23:38).

Like Israel’s King David, by experience many black people have come to know the perfidy of America’s Ahitophels, the treachery of Joab, and the rebellion of Absalom. No less have they known the hatred of Jezebel, Saul’s jealousy, the curse of Shemei, the disrespect of Michal and the foolishness of Nabal.

The inerrant Word of Yah declares: So the people of Niyneveh believed Yah, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them. For word came unto the king of Niyneveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes (Jonah 3:5-6).

Where in America might we find such humility?

There is an intrinsic sense of gratitude and honor to Yahuah for His grace in bringing these matters of concern to my attention. Indeed, I am forever thankful to my Creator and Savior, who by His Love and laboring mercy have committed thoughts to my memory.

There are times when a cloudburst of emotion rushes to deposit the showers of distress and anguish in the ocean of discouragement. And like the tributaries that flow into the ocean, the dikes of integrity and friendship are destroyed, severing the affections, aged beliefs, and long-held brotherhood, as with the young Joseph (Genesis 37:12-36).

Believe me when I say that I don’t just write for sentimental reasons. As with Sam Cooke, I believe A Change Is Gonna Come, not in platitudes but in attitudes. Love. Ain’t that Good News?

As an offering to the King of all creation, I submit this volume into the hands of the reader. Might it please Yahuah that the message to America has been timely delivered to the people. May it be humbly received!

INTRODUCTION

The earth mourns and fades away, The world languishes and fades away; the haughty people of the earth languish. The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants. Because they have transgressed the laws, Changed the ordinance, Broken the everlasting covenant (Isaiah 24:4-5).

W hile men are haughtily flaunting their credentials and in hubris displaying their range of weaponry, the world seems to be limping pathetically from one crisis to the next. On the palates of men’s pride, the wine of destruction is more astringent when sipped with the hauteur of conscienceless men, souls then remain unstirred.

As connoisseurs of violence, prolific in lies and masters of deceits, too often are the great men of the earth drunken with the blood of young men, who are thoughtlessly sent to war against their will. Are they not also guilty in forcing the blind conformity of the ignorant and voiceless to obey their commands?

How unenviable is the misfortune in life, to be an aficionado of wickedness, but not known in the Kingdom of Yah?

How irreparable then is the damage done to the soul, when pride is enthroned, but conscience is seared?

Pages of human history tell the story, reproach their behaviors, in which their own consciences testify against them.

Then shall the Judge of all the earth do right, bringing His wrath on them, (Bereshith 18: 25).

Who then will deny tthast these are the best of all prophetic times, while being the worst period of all political crimes?

Never are we again to see so many blind people walking around, bumping into each other ideas, while ‘science,’ in from the halls of eminence, holds sway over the minds of the people.

While keeping their distance from common sense, Truth is seated on the throne.

Some believe that, there is patently no legitimate compelling reason, independent of fear, which justifies the closing of the worship assemblies, putting out the lights that were given to the world, wherein, darkness covers the land - Matthew 5: 14-16

One should then think seriously about the accuracy of the apostle John, who, as an amanuensis, under the inspiration of the Ruach Ha Qodesh, wrote:

And the light of the lamp shall shine no more at all. And the voice of the bridegroom and the bride shall be heard no more at all. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth; for by your drug sorcery all the nations were led astray - Revelation 18: 23), (Halleluyah Scriptures).

How careless might one be, if they should overlook the word pharmekia here mentioned, which is referenced a number of times, in the Brit Hadashah, (Galatians 5:19-21; Hazon 9:21; and Hazon 18:23). Each time, it is translated as ‘sorcery’ or ‘magic’ and it is spoken of in the most unflattering terms.

The apostle Yohanan here wants us to know that, the merchants of the Pharmaceutical Industries would provide the infringements against the laws of Yah.

Also, they will be the leading men advising and lobbying governments to make laws to their convenience.

Thus, it is believed by many that, whatever they ‘mandate,’ regardless of the outcry from the people, the benefits are not for the general public. Therein, we see the obvious application of (Hazon 18: 23, where science and politics hold hands, even in the matter of a pandemic.

The vitality that sustains the tone of anger, thirst for evil, and the glee of self comes not from the imprimatur of the Creator, the Yah of love. Rather, man is inexorably drawn by his desire to extol self. The air is stirred with trouble, and we expect more of the same. There are too few ribbons of peace hanging in the windows of hope where the language of pride is fluently spoken. Anxiety is a resident in the home of many hearts and trouble, like the rain clouds invites the onset of fear!

In the vale of tears, we hear the pleas of the poor, the cries of the destitute, and the silence of the church. Amid the lies of politicians, the march of the infantry, and the deceit of Wall Street, their tender voices are crowded out, and hope seems forlorn. The unfolding incidents of life are coming together to countenance all that the Scriptures say the end-time would be, and few are they that seem to care about the nation’s plight. Oh America, if only you had followed Yah!

Our towns and cities are propelled by unspeakable shock. And so, I ask, how are we to explain the bridled churches and their ‘pious’ bishops? Have they been silenced by their own transgressions or by the legislators to whom they vow their allegiance? How are they so deaf to what they see and blind to what they hear?

While many are disputing the Scriptures, which early point to the events now taking place in this life, some are found guilty of ignorance, and by the laws of Yahusha, are being Judged. Without the bail of Yah’s grace, all men are condemned by He, who has no peer. Sin is not a misdemeanor in the Assize of Heaven, and there is no appellate court in the Kingdom of Yah, it’s a capital offence.

Too often we see the charge of high crimes and misdemeanors among the range of misconduct and unethical behaviors that our elected officials have to answer, not precluding the high office of presidents. In this, we find dishonest men and women, in their committees and caucuses are called upon to investigate other dishonest, negligent and lying persons, who have recklessly perjured themselves under the oath of their offices.

Thus, those, who in campaign rallies have sung the praises of their candidate of choice, soon find that they are no more genuine than a nine -dollar bill. If only we could find one person in the character of the Rechabites, the descendants of Jonadab, the son of Rechab, in Washington, the fidelity of government would be established, (Jeremiah 35: 1-6); (1 Chronicles 2: 55).

While it is shown that they do not respect the Laws of Yah, the interesting irony is that they have butchered the very Constitution that they have written. The idea that a sitting president cannot be indicted in office, is fallacious. Biblical history informs us that Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar and, king Saul, were all indicted in office by Yah, (Daniel 4: 30); (5: 5-7).

The point is this, the Scriptural mandate applies to human government. So, to the lordly men and dainty ladies of Congress and Senate, who have sold their souls for power, the Fingers of the Unseen Hand, have written your eternal destinies, if only they could read the language of heaven. And if there be no Daniel in the Church, who will interpret the signs of the times? Who knows when the lights of Washington will go out? (Daniel 5: 1-5).

Are we to think that members of the clergy class are no more than compliant officers occupying sinecure posts, who have been trained to jump over the fences of life’s circumstances, at the will of their masters? And for the members in the pews of intolerable discomfort, ‘not disciples of Yahusha,’ which they have in error created, faith is stymied, relationships suffer, and the covenant with Yah is broken.

As it was for the prophet Ezekiel, life seems to be a parable and no less a complex riddle, the answer of which only Yah knows, (Ezekiel 17:1-2). There is something recondite, something obscurely present in politics, the complexity of which is yet to be explained in the lucidity of words. And the church, the distinguished light to the world, with a ‘pious’ band of priests, is extinguished, made and scandalized by the perfidy of its complicity with the sins of men.

It requires more than a common acumen to understand why leaders in America are behaving as potentates and tribal lords, even as the three branches of government are fast asleep, like a tired and feckless eagle. Who can deny that the increments of America’s moral contractions are increasing each day, and the nation, like an expectant mother, is at pains to deliver a child? And like a doting father, the nation attends birthing class, where the pain of its own experience is a lesson not learned.

To the utter chagrin of many, none of the three branches of government will accept paternity for this immoral child that they have fathered. The judge in this case, Congress, is inimical to the task of demanding a paternity test. The promise of making America great again is nothing more than Braxton Hicks contractions.

The Spirit expressly says that in the latter ‘trimester’ of human history, when wickedness abounds, some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits, and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron… 1Timothy 4:1-2). Therein, some who labor in Washington, do so falsely, to preserve their legacies, at the behest of self.

False hope is tightening in the very abdomen of the nation. These contractions are to the anguished nation like intense menstrual cramps, needing urgent prenatal care. Indeed, like the languished woman, (Luke 8: 43-48, America has an issue of blood, which has seen the loss of morals and ethics. The nation has been bleeding for several years, but refuses to reach out and touch the hem of Yahshua’s garment.

Understanding the chemistry of Divine Blood is the only answer to America’s many problems. Therein, one might well conclude, even as Dr. Martin R. DeHann, 1891-1965) that sin is a disease of the blood. Men and women seem to inherit the attitudes, vileness and contempt of their forebears, whether biologically or in their professional capacities, of which each succeeding generation suffers.

And the Church, which like a placenta, should have ensured that the blood of politics is not mixed with the blood of the Church, is like a careless physician, who has failed in its duty to keep watch over the patient. Seemingly, the wine of politics has seeped through the placental barrier in the pews of the church, making the people inebriated. And so, we now have a ‘Fetal Inebriated Religious and Political Syndrome,’ (FIRPS), where politics and religions are indistinguishable one.

And yet, Congress, the superior of the heads and the nation’s foremost gynecologist, could have induced labor by opening the political cervix so that both the White House and the judiciary can attend the birth. The daily posturing in Washington serves not so much to augment righteous change but to prevaricate and confuse the hopeful nation, which stand in need of help.

These are indeed perilous times in which the priests obfuscate, the courts equivocate, politicians prevaricate, the church procrastinates, and the burdened people commiserate! How solemn is the thought of their persistent deceit? While many are in regular attendance at church each week, The Spirit expressly says that some would depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons (1 Timothy 4:1).

If indeed politics is an occupation of blood, some are clearly not suited to be in the delivery room of leadership. In order to avoid a breech birth, Congress, like a gynecologist, will have to perform a Caesarean-section delivery, to impeach the many wrongs that have been done in office.

For years, there have been problems with the placenta, the White House, the very organ of government that was to connect the developing fetus to the uterine wall of the mother (we the people), allowing nutrient uptake and waste elimination. Too many Americans are in need of basic necessities, while the wealthy among the people swelter in the heat of economic prosperity.

And I do mean swelter! They are uncomfortably rich, having everything that one needs to live on, but at the same time, having rejected their Creator, the giver of their wealth, they have nothing to live for.

How often is the thoughtlessly repeated folly that he is a self-made man? Whatever title man ascribes to himself, the breath that he so liberally breathes is on loan to him from the Creator. He is not self-made!

CHAPTER 1

THE SHEMITE NEGROES

OF AFRICA

N o thought of the human mind could be more demeaning to the Creator, and more repugnant to His Negro creation, than to deny them His divine attributes and their identity, (Revelation 1:15). The familial experience of Jacob and Esau teaches the importance of identity, (Genesis 27: 19). Nonetheless, years later Jacob had
