Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.
Defining the “Ancient Antiochene Church of God” - What we call the “Antiochene Church” has a “traditional” history and a documented official history. Traditionally, Christians were first called “Christian” in ancient Antioch. The school of the first Antiochene Christians began in Antioch and its rival became the Alexandrian School in Egypt.
The Antiochene School has its roots in its first Bishops. Historically, Apostle Peter was the first Bishop of Antioch. We have studied the history of Ancient Antiochene Christians and trace our history with historical facts. All are invited to research our lectures and articles. On October 10th 2017 Eric William King founded the revival of Ancient Antiochene Theology. He also started two online information ministries. It is the hope that Christians will research the true history of the Christian faith and find accurate knowledge regarding what the First Church actually taught and believed in.
This ministry and teachings (TSW - The Shepherds Way) only holds to the earliest church (proper) teachings, before the Great Schism which became the Roman Catholic Church & Greek Orthodox Church. We believe in the Divine Trinity and reject the praying to anybody else, body-spirit, other than God through our Lord Jesus Christ. It wasn’t until the Council of Trent in 1545 that the teaching on saintly intercession was officially laid down. We reject this council.
Most of our history stresses the first 451 years of the Christian Church when many of the early heresies were properly dealt with. We welcome you to study with us here and listen to all of our Nugget of Truth online lectures. We hold to and teach the Ancient Antiochene Christian Doctrine. May God richly bless you. ~ E.W.King
Basically,
the Soviet Union was formed in 1922. In 1918 the Bolsheviks established the
strong communistic rule. Eventually Jospeh Stalin formed the totalitarian
socialist police state. Through WW2 they survived as the USSR. It was a
gathering of smaller occupied nations.
Russia became a
“federation” of socialists. Not all Russians are socialists or communists. In
fact, there have always been true Christians among them. Today, Russia has the
largest land mass of any nation. It has a 6000-mile-long distance with eleven
time zones. Though Russia has many ethnic groups living within its borders, it
is still 80 percent Russian.
Most Christians
do not realize that Russia is mentioned in Bible prophecy. Particularly it is
mentioned in Ezekiel chapter 38. I urge all those who have found us to watch my
lecture titled: “Russia in Prophecy – 2022”. This is an amazing amount of
information which helps to show just where Humanity stands on the stage of
Bible prophecy.
As I have grown
older in my faith, I have begun to realize just what Jesus meant when He told
us, His disciples, to “Watch!” It is important for Bible students to understand
prophecy. Prophecy is a light – it is basically “history foretold”. We should
try and understand the world that we live in. It is important for all
Christians to familiarize themselves with the cultures of other people.
We are living
in a time where most people get their idea of “other people” by watching the
news. Television news is “ideological” and deceitful in many ways. It is best
to go to multiple sources when studying any topic. We must not think of all
Russians as “our enemies”. More than half of the Russians do not want this war.
Most Russians are intelligent people that have a lot in common when it comes to
Common Sense.
I have
predicted, based on Antiochene understandings of Bible prophecy, that Russia
will soon break up into more than one region, separated by political differences.
I pronounced that we (The Ancient Antiochene Church of God) believe that we
just ended “phase one” of the predicted Biblical war known as “Gog & Magog”. This war has three main
phases, according to our understand of Scripture. This current “break” in the
war is good. This break could last a very long time, or a very short time. That
we do not know.
We do know that
our understanding of the Gog & Magog war is accurate in that we are all
watching it unfold and come to fulfillments. It was in 2011 that Putin himself
warned about a Russian break up. Putin is trying his hardest now to keep
together the Russian Federation. The Russian elites are no longer afraid of
Putin like they were before, in fact, our insight tells us that they are
wanting him gone.
In one sense,
Putin used this war to frighten those leaders in the Russian Federation. He is
slowly losing control of the confederated government. Most of Putin’s nuclear
weapons are located in European Russia. Whatever happens to Russia we know
Europe will try and “fill the vacuum”. All of these issues will help prepare
for the other phases of the Gog & Magog war. I am getting ready to give
another important lecture regarding all of these issues. To learn more about
Bible prophecy stay with us here at “The Shepherds
Way” and the “Nugget of Truth”.
All Christian saints are experiencing these Bible prophecies come true right
before the “rapture” of the Church. God is encouraging us, He is telling us; “Watch, I am still in control.”
Keep your
Bible’s with you at all times.

TSW: Gog and Magog War...the prophecy has begun
- Thursday, February 24th 2022
This ministry (TSW/Nugget of Truth) has been predicting the Gog/Magog war as prophesied in Ezekiel ch.38 to begin "very soon", before the church is "caught up" to meet the LORD in the air. We believe that we entered that prophetic war on Thursday, February 24th 2022 when the ruler of "Rosh", who is "Gog" (Vladimir Putin) invaded the "peaceful land" of ancient Israelites - the Ukraine.
On September 17th 2020 I stated in an "outline" article;
"We may experience the first phase of the “War of Gog & Magog” which will be when Russia will assist predominantly Muslim countries to back an offense against geographical Israel. This first phase may not be when God supernaturally intervenes but will be the precursor to the 2nd phase of “Gog & Magog” which will happen under the final Anti-Christ. It will be horrible none-the-less. The final 3rd phase of “Gog & Magog” will be at the end of the Millennial Kingdom described in the book of Revelation. (Ezekiel 38:1-23; 39:1-13; Luke 21:20 – Luke’s gospel is referring to Gog & Magog, not the Tribulation.)" - (Click here to visit original post)
Since then I gave a special lecture on March 17th 2022 explaining the theological implications of this war. I would urge you all to watch it and take notes. We teach that this war comes in three phases, we have entered the first. Putin will not win this first phase and there may be a short or long gap between phase one and two. If God grants us mercy the gap may last a long time. We are currently praying for Great Britain and the healing from the loss of our Great Queen Elizabeth II.
On May 16th 2018 I was able to write a letter to the Queen which was posted. (Click here to read original post). She will be greatly missed.
Here is a thought from an older post regarding Putin and under it is the lecture I gave regarding the Gog/Magog war which I urge all to watch:
"We have been predicting this current war between Russiaand theUkrainefor some time now. In Ezekiel ch. 38 we have Russia (also;Moscow,Tobolsk) mentioned by name in the first couple verses. The chapter goes on to describe the fact that the "latter-day" ruler of Russia, Gog (Vladimir Putin) would be "pulled out by hooks" in his jaw."
"This was figurative of President Joe Biden basically inviting Putin to go ahead and fight because a "small incursion" wouldn't be a problem (according to Bidden). Putin took the bait and went into Ukraine."
"In Ezekiel ch. 38 Ukraine is described as an "un-walled" peaceful land, before Putin invaded. Also, we have documented the fact that the Ukraine is made up of many ancient descendants of literal Israel. They contain bloodlines from many of the so called "lost tribes of Israel". Their current president being Jewish. Many Jewish settlements also are in the Ukraine so this is the "Israel" referred to that Russia would come against in these last days up to verse 16."
"I urge you to watch the following lecture on this important topic which I gave a short time ago. Please share it with fellow Christians. It is time to pay attention like never before." (Click here to read original post)
