Concerning Joseph Gregory Hallett and his claims to the throne of England and his claims as Messiah…

First, I’m sorry.  When I am particularly annoyed, I am excessively sarcastic.  I apologize in advance because I already know I’m going to be sarcastic.  Also, I may come across as condescending and I really don’t mean to; I just will have a strong rebuke in here as well that may be harsh for some.  I’m going to try to tone it down, so we’ll see…

The rule of thumb for not being deceived is to know the original so well, you can sniff a counterfeit.  I was appalled at how much the Q movement is promoting this guy, with no sense of discernment whatsoever.  This guy is such a deception that if Q himself came out endorsing him, I’d abandon the Q movement. 

I understand non-Christians being deceived by this guy, but not believers.  Yet there are (alleged) believers touting his claims, but I’ll get to this.

I’ve had a lot of stuff forwarded to me, and I’ve been sifting through it.  If you stick with what others are saying about him and the “paperwork”, I can see where it could seem legit – at a surface glance.  It’s being well packaged in some circles.  We in the Great Awakening have been so burned by the lies we’ve been fed, this is going to sound like exposure of another lie and revelation of a deeper truth off the cuff.  It’s easier to deceive someone when you play into their emotions.  Contempt for a corrupt system sets a stage for playing on these emotions. 

I went to Hallett’s own website and waded through the documents and videos.  I got about twenty minutes into the one titled Mashiach v Messiah, The Son of Man, Hallett ft Fetzer, Ep 7, 9 March 2019 before I had to quit.  I think I rolled my eyes through most of that twenty minutes and laughed aloud a time or two, but here ya go…

Just over a minute in, Hallett says, “I’ve never read the Bible but…”

The guy who is claiming to be the Messiah hadn’t even read the Bible.  I really didn’t need to go any further, but I did.  He continued on to say he started to read it a few years ago and was “…able to decode a lot of the Bible.”  So right off we get a guy with basically no personal knowledge of the Bible that after reading once or twice claims to be able to “decode” it.  He went on to say that “specific times and events [in the Bible] pointed to his story and genealogical history.”

Do I really need to point out how improbable that is?  No need, he makes the case as you keep watching.

At 5:25 in he says he learned the four horsemen of the Apocalypse are white, red, pale and dark, and that if you combine those colors you get brown.  He then links that to Zeus splitting an oak tree with his thunderbolt, and produces a brown horse from the tree.  [what?!???]

He continues to say the Bible said the Apocalypse would be accompanied by an eighty year old man with a very sharp axe, sleet and incense.  He never tells you where that is in the Bible (because it isn’t in the Bible), and goes on to say this was fulfilled.  He then produces a piece of wood (photo attached) he’s alluding to as the sign of this “brown horse” from the oak tree, while admitting (whoever) this 80-year old man (is/was) didn’t have an axe but a chainsaw, didn’t have sleet but had hail, and didn’t have incense but had smoke – which he says are pretty much the same thing so this sign was fulfilled. 

Anyone who has read and studied the Word of God can stop now.  This is clearly a farce.  But I kept going, and he spoke of moving to a city called Diss in 2015.  He rambled about some sign in Diss being incorrect, and then did some fun with numbers to show how that sign was a sign for himself.                      

He went on to talk about a “Mulberry” (which seems to be some sort of dock) in Diss that was made by a John Hughes Hallett from the 1770s.  This was another sign to him because his name was “Hallett” and he said it was a sign and to be read as “John Who’s Hallett” [like John Who Is Hallett]. 

For whatever reason, he connects this Mulberry (floating dock) with the Sea of Galilee.  The Mulberry has an elbow of a right angle, and he says you overlay a map of the Sea of Galilee and you’ll get the coordinates of where Christ walked on water and the disciples came and got him.  (Which isn’t how the Scripture goes, but who cares, right?)  What the Sea of Galilee has to do with Diss or the Mulberry is never clearly stated. 

I almost fell out of my chair at 11:40 in when he says the word “hello” means “holy”.  [Um, no.  No it doesn’t.  Holy is from the Hebrew word “kadosh” which means “there is no one like”.]  And I’ve since forgotten why he thought that necessary to incorporate…

He adheres to some “Book of Predictions”, and at 12:04 he talked of the predictions (I’m assuming from that book) “needed to be kicked to the public eye so they built a religion around the predictions”.  This lays groundwork for discounting Christianity.

At 13:18ish, he refers to Mashiach ben David, or the son of David.  He says that the son of David doesn’t come genealogically but that he comes “from the bowels which means secondary by initiation and circumstance”.  [This is convenient if you’re claiming to be the Messiah but you can’t prove your bloodline connects to the royal bloodline of David.  It’s also untrue.]

This is the part I died laughing at:  At 17:56 he’s giving some timeline of how his birth was a series of events that were predicted.  He refers to some Scripture, one in particular that speaks of being in the “belly of the whale”.  He then tells us that the belly of the whale means a woman is pregnant, and used the phrase, “pleads the belly like a core”.  He says this is to indicate he (Joseph Hallett) was born three days late (of the code).  I couldn’t stop laughing for a bit! 

[Serious Christians know the reference of Jonah in the belly of the whale is about Christ’s burial after his crucifixion.  But this was not at all how were told the “Bible code” should be interpreted.]

Apparently he was saying these codes predicted his birth, but he missed the prediction date by three days, but it’s okay because the Scripture with “belly of the whale” is the confirmation that he was supposed to be three days late.  [are you dying laughing yet???]

He continues (how? and with a straight face??) to say the release of the movie “How to Train Your Dragon” was a marker for the beginning of the “5^th Roman Empire”, which he calls the “Empire of the Holy Spirit.”

Come on people!!!  How is anyone buying this????

At 19:22 he explains that movies are markers for Biblical events.  (No, they’re markers for Illuminati events.)  He goes on to say the Freemasons are in charge of entertainment and they use entertainment to act out the Bible “to the letter”. 

A minute later (20:11) he says because of the belly of the whale reference, he should have whaling ancestors – and at this time I feel like I’m wasting my time and losing brain cells and I shut it off.  I didn’t let it play long enough to grasp what these “whaling ancestors” had to do with anything or who they are to him or the Scriptures he kept referencing – but I’m sure it was just as entertaining.

So by this time I am quite finished with Mr. Joseph Gregory Hallett, and am a little perplexed on how anyone has taken this human seriously.  So I shifted over to a video on youtube someone sent me called, “Meet the New King of England”.  This one was sort of a highlights reel of key parts of other videos.  It seemed put together to make more sense (in parts). 

They try to link Hallett with President Trump, and like they’re on the same level.  They refer to something called the NHS (the New Hallett Sovereign), and they link the unrolling of NESARA/GESARA with the new King of England, “King John III”, aka Joseph Gregory Hallett.  They set him up as the savior who’s going to unroll NESARA/GESARA.

Then at 15:35 it has a clip from an interview with Hallett with two other men.  I was mortified to see one of the men with a Q shirt on, and hashtags of the video with #Qanon, and other Q identifiers.  How are we this easily deceived????  But at 15:35 in this interview Hallett tells us the Queen “…went into hiding and Trump just took over, kind of took over the British Empire until I move in.”  [By move in, he means the Windsor Castle, if I remember right.]

Oh wow.  People believe this. 

I turned it off at 17:40 after listening to Hallett tell of the Pope abdicating his “Vicar of Christ” title and giving it to him (through some coded language of course), and Hallett declaring, “I am currently the owner of the world.”

This would be hilarious if it wasn’t so shocking that people are actually taking this seriously.  The whole thing played out like a spoof on Christianity.  This man is seriously deranged and those promoting him are either deceived or part of a (not very good) plot to deceive. 

So if you can’t see through this BS, or you asked me about his role as a possible “antichrist”, here are my additional thoughts.

I know people are speculating if Hallett could be “the antichrist”.  Apparently Hallett even refers to himself as “ante-Christ” in other places.  I haven’t heard that myself.  I couldn’t stomach any more of this.  So I’ll give you my two cents; take it or leave it.

“Antichrist” is only used four times in the Scriptures, and all four times are in the epistles (not gospel) of John.  (three times in 1John and once in 2John)  Each of these passages makes clear there are numerous antichrists, and that the antichrist spirit was alive and well in John’s day, and not reserved for some exclusive future event.

There is no “antichrist” in the book of Revelation, though many like to refer to the beast(s) of Revelation 13.  (Though I’ve never been able to get anyone to clarify if they mean the beast of the earth or the beast of the sea.) 

The trouble with that theory is beast means kingdom, not person.  So the kingdoms represented by the beasts of the sea and earth are not really a singular person.

If you’re referring to the man of lawlessness from 2 Thessalonians 2, let’s look at the Scripture closely.

2 Thess 2:1-12 from the New King James:

Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

In verse three it reads that the return of Christ will not come until:

• The falling away comes
• Man of sin (man of lawlessness) is revealed.
  • Son of perdition
  • Opposes and exalts himself over everything that is of God
  • Sits in the temple of God as though he is God himself

The words translated “falling away” are from the Greek word “apostasia” [Strong’s #646] and literally mean “defection from truth”. 

The words translated “man of sin” (lawlessness in some versions) is from the Greek word “anomia” [Strong’s #458] which literally means “illegality or violation of law”. 

And in verse 11 where it says, “God shall send them a strong delusion that they should believe a falsehood….”  The word delusion is from the Greek “plane” [Strong’s #4106] and means “fraudulent, straying from orthodoxy”. 

Let’s rephrase to hone in a little.  Christ will not return until a defection from truth occurs, and one who is in violation of the law is revealed.  What law is this illegal person violating?  He’s exalting himself as God, and opposing what is genuinely God.  Illegality would be the placing of himself as God when he is not God at all.  He’s a fraud, a usurper, deliberately misrepresenting himself.

God will send a strong straying from orthodoxy.  Think about that for a minute.  What is Paul referring to here?  Orthodoxy is adherence to accepted norms, definitions and appropriateness, especially in connection with religious beliefs.  Paul is an ambassador for the Christian faith, so it’s not much of a stretch to apply this as straying from the accepted beliefs, definitions and appropriateness of the Christian faith.

Mr. Hallett’s claims are so absurd I don’t know how they can be taken seriously, and yet they are.  And by Christians and Q supporters, nonetheless!  What is going on here???  Mr. Hallett even pens an “Aramaic prayer for the New Age”, and speaks of his birth ushering in a new age.  Come on people!  You can’t see through this???  Where is your discernment?  Who is your god/God???

But no, I sincerely doubt this is the man of lawlessness, the man of sin.  This is an imposter and some who do not have the love of truth will foolishly fall for this.  Pay attention to how many people who promote this garbage have already fallen for the new age of ascension and light and vibration, complete with benevolent ETs to guide us into the new heaven.  [dripping sarcasm here] 

Straying from orthodoxy, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, is the way, the truth, the light is being replaced with good vibrations and light and love, good thoughts, ascension to the 5D and all the accompanying crap that goes with this.  Why must we exchange the truth of God for a lie?  Why isn’t God’s definition of Himself good enough?  Why do we think we know better?

Yes, deception and delusions abound.  There is not an “antichrist” in the book of Revelation.  There are two beasts and there is false worship.  There is a man of lawlessness Paul speaks of, but all of the great Biblical scholars (Clarke, Barnes, Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, Matthew Henry, etc.) acknowledge this man of lawlessness is the papacy and will culminate in one pope. 

Matthew Henry said it most succinctly so I’ll quote him, though it’s worth looking at all of them because they lay out how the Roman government held back the papacy until Constantine moved it to Constantinople, merging ecclesiastical powers with civil.

“Something hindered or withheld the man of sin. It is supposed to be the power of the Roman empire, which the apostle did not mention more plainly at that time. Corruption of doctrine and worship came in by degrees, and the usurping of power was gradual; thus the mystery of iniquity prevailed. Superstition and idolatry were advanced by pretended devotion, and bigotry and persecution were promoted by pretended zeal for God and his glory. This mystery of iniquity was even then begun; while the apostles were yet living, persons pretended zeal for Christ, but really opposed him. The fall or ruin of the antichristian state is declared. The pure word of God, with the Spirit of God, will discover this mystery of iniquity, and in due time it shall be destroyed by the brightness of Christ’s coming. Signs and wonders, visions and miracles, are pretended; but they are false signs to support false doctrines; and lying wonders, or only pretended miracles, to cheat the people; and the diabolical deceits with which the antichristian state has been supported, are notorious. The persons are described, who are his willing subjects. Their sin is this; They did not love the truth, and therefore did not believe it; and they were pleased with false notions. God leaves them to themselves, then sin will follow of course, and spiritual judgments here, and eternal punishments hereafter. These prophecies have, in a great measure, come to pass, and confirm the truth of the Scriptures. This passage exactly agrees with the system of popery, as it prevails in the Romish church, and under the Romish popes. But though the son of perdition has been revealed, though he has opposed and exalted himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; and has spoken and acted as if he were a god upon earth, and has proclaimed his insolent pride, and supported his delusions, by lying miracles and all kinds of frauds; still the Lord has not yet fully destroyed him with the brightness of his coming; that and other prophecies remain to be fulfilled before the end shall come.”

Barnes’ explains it like this:

In verse seven (of 2 Thess.), it says, “The mystery of lawlessness is already at work…”  The word for mystery here means something that is hidden until it is manifested, not something that remains a secret.  So in Paul’s day the lawlessness that will come (future) in a man was working already. So the spirit of lawlessness was working, but the man of lawlessness was coming.  Paul goes on to say, “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish…”  Knowing what we know about the man of lawlessness being manifested in the papacy, this should be obvious now.  If we’re reading and understanding correctly, the pope will remain until Christ’s return – because that is when he will be destroyed.

This is getting too long, but it’s an overview of the foolishness of endorsing Mr. Hallet’s claims – both logically and scripturally.  This is a twitter feed that is being promoted in some of the circles.  It’s by a Christian, and a lot of people seem to be on this bandwagon.  As a general rule, I find debunking falsehoods is easiest to do by asking questions that force the believer of the falsehood to defend their beliefs.  This is the angle I’d take with someone who is set on this fallacy.
