Are the tribes of Israel really "lost" or were they hidden on purpose as prophesied in Psalms 83? The Bible indicates that there would be a multi national conspiracy to hide Israel and wipe out the memory of who they really are. If this is true, then history as we know it has been hijacked, and it is only through searching that we will find the truth.

Jezebel was the most wicked woman in the Bible, a powerful seductress who killed the prophets, led Israel into idolatry and immorality, and emasculated men. In twenty-first-century America, Jezebel is not a person. But it's as if the spirit of Jezebel is alive again today.

Yet, I lied, gossiped, and judged others without mercy. I misrepresented my God with my behavior, attitude, and words. Such was my life.
