Rate this book
The Shinar Directive serves as a kingdom intelligence briefing for God's people in the twenty-first century.On the ancient plains of Shinar, an evil was The first world king, the prototype transhuman, the ultimate despot, the Son of Perdition--Nimrod. In Babylon, the Son of Perdition devised the Shinar the enslaving of humanity and the war against the God of Heaven. God's intervention at the Tower of Babel only delayed his hellish plans. The Luciferian Elite now control three key circles of influence in the financial, political, and religious. However, controlling these three systems was not enough. The laborers of Mystery Babylon have been quietly planning and waiting for thousands of years for the releasing of the Watchers of Genesis 6.Now armed with developing Watcher technologies, the Elite will use transhumanism and mind control to build the Joel chapter 2 the army of the Antichrist. We are beginning to realize that the mark of the Beast and the image of the Beast are much more than we could have ever imagined; beyond an implant and beyond a physical mark, they will affect DNA and who we are at a molecular level!As the powers of Mystery Babylon gather to create the new Tower of Babel and prepare for the Son of Perdition's return, Heaven is issuing a clarion call to the Know the strategies of the enemy, untangle yourself from it, and become the victorious Church! Heaven's Jewish Apostle of Love, John, reveals the coming conflict in his book of Revelation and provides the ancient Hebraic wisdom encoded in 1 John to equip the bondservants of Messiah with the tools of the kingdom to overcome the Shinar Directive!

This book is a thorough discussion of the real forces behind government and religion today from before the Flood to the present day and ultimately to Armageddon and the return of Christ.

It is probably the most complete book on the history of Satan and his plans for the world that I have ever read.

Michael Lake is a researcher who goes back to the Hebrew language as well as Hebrew customs and records to analyze everything. He does not rely on the opinions of others, but checks them out in his own research.

Because he is so careful in his research, he quotes extensive passages from many books. This is one of the reasons that I gave the book 4 instead of 5. I had read almost every book and watched each of the authors several times. So I felt that I was not learning much that was new. Of course, that is probably not fair because this is a book of research more than of original thought.

But this is an advantage to a reader who is just beginning this study. Despite the >$35 US that I paid for this book (with domestic shipping), it would save you a lot of money not needing to purchase many of the other books. It also will save you time.

I trust the accuracy of this book. That is important in an area of study where so much is hidden through secret societies, above top secret clearance research, supernatural phenomena which are difficult to verify because they are spiritually discerned or scientifically unverifiable (UFO's, fallen angels, portals, CERN, Nephilim, HAARP, secret energy weapons, transhumanism, military mind control causing dissociative identity disorder, etc.)

But these are factors which will have an overwhelming effect on the Church and the rest of the world in the coming inevitable turmoil as the New World Order takes over.

Despite the seemingly impossible situation in which we will find ourselves, combating mind control through television, monster super soldiers with animal and superhuman abilities, persecution, loss of freedom because of automatic surveillance (tracking the internet, cell phones, shopping patterns, driving speed and locations, and even televisions already present which record conversations even when the tv is not on, etc. etc.), the author presents the plan of God for His Church to be overcomers.

This will require the Church to go beyond the Acts of the Apostles, to overcome situations which have never existed before and for which most of the Church is not prepared (and for which most of them, sadly, will never be prepared.)

The world will return to the time of Noah, with so much of humanity's genetic characteristics modified that people who have not had their DNA changed by the Mark of the Beast will need to be removed again from the earth, just as the only ones who were pure genetically were removed before the Flood. It seems that the Watchers have returned (since approximately 1900) and the Church will be facing them as well as the rest of the fallen angels, demons and possibly Nephilim Elite who are the hidden government of the world.

Although I did not learn as much from this book as I hoped to, I found answers that I have been unable to find in the many other books that I have read, such as why blood sacrifice was required from the time of Adam's sin until the sacrifice of Jesus in which He poured out His blood on the altar in Heaven. For so many people, the death of God's own Son on the cross appears brutal and no different from the parents offering their babies to Molech in pagan worship. But Lake shows how the shedding of blood opens portals between earth and heaven. Pagan blood sacrifices of innocent blood open portals giving evil supernatural beings the legal right to enter earth from the second heaven. The blood sacrifice of innocent lambs and then ultimately the innocent Lamb of God re-opened the portal between the third heaven (where God dwells) and the earth to allow mankind who accepted this sacrifice to have Adam's relationship to God restored. The life is in the blood... Jews were therefore told not to consume blood. Pagans have long drunk the blood of conquered enemies in order to receive their courage; the Masai drink the blood of their cattle and say that they become like the cattle. There is an energy in blood that we probably do not understand completely yet. Blood did not appear in humans until man sinned. Light was the form of energy that allowed the body to function. When man sinned, the speed of light slowed down (and is still slowing down) and the congealed light of the body became blood. This is the relationship between sin and blood and why blood sacrifices are required to redeem man from sin. Jesus had blood when He was born. When He returned to the earth after His resurrection, He told the disciples that He was not a ghost because ghosts do not have flesh and bone as He did. He did not say "flesh and blood" because He no longer had blood.

I also have wondered by what means God was able to confound the language of those who built the Tower of Babel under Nimrod. Although Lake did not explain this, he did explain that the people thought as one because of frequency mind control so that the people actually had a "hive" mentality where their DNA's frequency was changed so that they could no longer hear from God but could hear only Nimrod. This is speculated to be the same effect that taking the Mark of the Beast will have, by making it impossible for people to hear from God any longer. Thus there will be no salvation for them, no forgiveness for taking the Mark of the Beast, because they will not be able to hear the Holy Spirit and be drawn to repentance. God would forgive them but it will be impossible for them to hear from God, be aware of their sin, and seek forgiveness.

The world has become a complicated place, but the necessary knowledge is out there for the Church to not be drawn into the ultimate delusion warned about in the Bible, that, "if it were possible, to deceive even the elect". But it will require the Church to not be ignorant of the devices of Satan... and that means to investigate these scientific trends that will have so much effect on our lives... and make the correct decisions.

If you can read only one book about the immediate future, this is probably the best one.

A reverse John the Baptist preparing for the "son of perdition," not that it had to wait for Lake; there is a whole stable of horses carrying such preparations starting with Fritz Springmeir's many tomes of illuminati blood lines and mind control formulas, or o/w John Dee, Bill Yeats, Ron Hubbard, Jack Parsons https://insightstatutes.blogspot.com/... How does he know all this? Same with Lake, et. al. The best guess is dialectical. Fear corrupts. We must suppose these revelations given by permission of occult authorities, hence for what purpose? The answer is to distract, to terrorize, to subjugate. And why bother? Because left to the high praises of God in their mouth and a two edge sword in their hand (Ps. 149) there is a certainty the saint will still the enemy and avenger (Ps. 8).

Lake among this whole stable of "Christian" apocalypse authors of Sky Watch TV gives us a glimpse as to how the inculcation of evil poses as the good to accentuate evil---A Mode of social systems in the Reset, call the Trifecta, a pet term fro the ruling class

The Trifecta bogus Reset is the third term in combination. Trifecta Hegel perfected Hegelian variations of the perfecta in which a bettor wins by selecting the first three finishers of a race in the correct order of finish. The whole point of running the trifecta is to accentuate the evil, so if Lake says there is occult evil in Missouri and his book on the coming of the son of perdition rehearses that evil to conflict it, he the good, accentuates the evil under the guise of correcting it—hence he is what they are not what he says he is.

In the Trifecta there are no bogus charges. All functions/functionality are turned against themselves, the phone system, heat, light cooling of a bldg are all hacked as is the metaphysic of all philosophy hacked: ontology, phenemology, teiliology. Outside the trifecta, if you can imagine a natural world, every charge is bogus. To repeat, when outside Trifecta looks at inside Trifecta all is bogus. Everything inside is bogus outside not. These reversals are in the Reset reversed so that in the RC everything is bogus and outside everything is true.

Is there a chance that this genre of writers, Lake for example, are not aware of the psychological back channel they have opened up, that Horn with his mystery war when Christians kill Christians, as he says, is both innocent and guilty at the same time he follows this sensational line? Yes there is. The answer is always in the language. Lake begins with his "panic attack" during The Matrix where he is "living in a world "completely controlled by the occult." Exaggeration he always takes for granted. Completely, indeed. in their "comotose"spiritual state these Christians exaggerate manic depressive takes. Being "lost in prayer for hours" his wife falls further into depression. These are pathological behaviors at the outset, out of which he says being "exmilitary" he pursues in a "deep desire to "know my enemy" so he reads up on witchcraft. Pathology compounded on pathology. Is it not obvious that he's studying evil that good may come? the exaggerations of extremes of slander and sensationalism are witchcraft in themselves.

Lake, page one, says we are living in a world "completely controlled by the occult" which means he is confessing his part in it. You should question this doom porn because it turns one thing into another for discouragement. The shoah is not the rapture. Shoah means holocaust. A significant part of his research is from witches and discredited sources. Lake leaves realpolitik out, the Geopolitical Destabilization of Europe (see note).

When the Pope declares piecemeal WW III he acts as a terrorist. None of us know anything firsthand about these celebrated nephilim. Or Nimrod. It's not like Lake read Gilgamesh who rejected Ishtar. The Directive is personal when he speaks of his escape from the Crystal Caldron of St. Louis that he names, but the suspect testimony of ex-witches, half truths foisted on sacred texts give a scenario of mad fiction of the worst fears of Job, who feared a fear and it came upon him.

Logical fallacy, discredited sources, insulting repetition, sensational cliches, continual reference to personal authority, Directive compares to the preacher of Isaiah 28 who talks like a drunk, here a little, there a little. Continual citing of Wikipedia as a historical source, reliance upon the discredited Two Babylons, The Black Awakening, Schnoebelen's Illuminati from Within, plagiarizing the Targum-- called "sharing,"--attributing Shakespeare to Bacon because of a DVD, 191, more world "completely controlled by the occult", LSD created by the CIA," 224, Shem, not Esau killed Nimrod. Instead of reading sources he reads every systematic theology ever written in English. Maybe that's the cause of crediting Dr. Dee, Crowley, Hubbard and Parsons for loosing the vortices. He claims "Bible-believing Christians will respond to logical questioning of their unbiblical beliefs with emotions of anger, mistrust, outrage, and even hatred," 230, but as he once watched TV with his analytical mind "switched off," the false analogy, repetition, straw men, red herring and begging fallacies implicate himself, not them. Such heavy reliance on occult sources is a stalking horse for them.

Note: What Gearoid O Colmain says (his complete statement is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7GAb...

"There is no war on terror there is an international war being waged using proxy groups against nation states that resist the new order of U.S. Israeli hegemony and to discipline the work force by terrorist groups funded, armed and trained by western intelligence agencies to spawn an intellectual terrorism to crack down on dissident opinion about the link between French imperialism and terrorism (fill in your country here) random terrorist attacks being a form of low intensity civil war with coercive engineered immigration (K. M. Greenhill), a tool used by one state to destabilize another state, where U.S. and Turkey destabilize the Balkans, Hungary and Germany, civil war being a natural result of globalization which leads to breakdown of society.

Divide the world island and conquer while the controllers have their way. Divide the Eurasian peninsula from the Baltic sea to the Black to create an Intermarium to prevent German and Russian unity which is why Germany is being overrun by other victims of globalization now instrumentalized and used as weapons of globalization, so the consequences of globalization are used to further the goal of globalization."

This book is very thought provoking, containing some very provocative information.

The author brought out many facts.. I would think little known to most people but important to learn. The origin of the "peace symbol" is one small example. He also documented the thread of darkness that began thousands of years ago and the many surprising ways it has been woven into our culture now and through the recent past. Most importantly though, he offers hope to those who are awake, would have ears to hear and the will to do. May we awaken from our slumber while there is daylight left.

Eye opening truths.

This book is very informative, opens your heart to the truths that are happening right now in our country, USA. The authors have demonstrated their ability, given by God to teach what needs to be learned by you and I if we are going through to JESUS Second Coming. I learned a lot from this book. I have read all of Thomas Horns Books, and this book by Dr. Micheal Lake and Thomas Horn was very valuable in my research in the End Times. I highly recommend this book.

It is very easy to be skeptical about subject matter such as this - especially if you are not a student of eschatology. However, I would strongly recommend this read with an open mind. You may not agree with all of what he has to say, but he journey though this book will definitely get your mind churning on many things and hopefully open you to additional research as to the veracity of what he claims.

Happy reading!

This book is an important work about what is happening in our world today, as we come into the End Times, all of it supported Biblically. An excellent research work, and a must read for every Christian today so we can be prepared for the evil that is now surrounding us. If we understand where this evil began, we can better understand it's intent is for our lives in the upcoming times.

Wake Up Bride

This book is like a watchman calling God's people to attention. Thank you .. Michael Lake, Tom Horn.
Jesus will come for a spotless bride. She might not be like the celebs of today.. all glitz covering up perversion.
Yes perversion. Anything not lived like JESUS lived, falls way short of God. This book is a blow to the ego of Satan's version of the bride. Satan's bride is dressed in harlots attire. She has no bright light of God in her soul.

Wake up sleeping Bride..time is short.

The Shinar Directive by Michael Lake is a dense and ambitious exploration of ancient history, mythology, and eschatology, blending biblical prophecy with speculative theories about the origins of civilization. Lake delves into themes such as occultism, secret societies, and the biblical account of the Tower of Babel, presenting a narrative that ties together various historical and religious threads. While the book offers a provocative perspective on these topics, it requires readers to approach it with an open mind and a critical eye due to its speculative nature and reliance on ancient texts and interpretations.

Lake's writing style is thorough and meticulously researched, providing an extensive array of references and citations to support his arguments. The book challenges conventional interpretations of history and invites readers to reconsider the role of ancient civilizations and their influence on modern geopolitics and spirituality. However, its heavy reliance on biblical prophecy and theological interpretations may limit its appeal to readers seeking a more empirical or scientific approach to understanding history.
Overall, The Shinar Directive is recommended for readers interested in exploring alternative viewpoints on ancient history and biblical prophecy, although its speculative nature and theological focus may not resonate with all audiences.

Ten Main Points from The Shinar Directive

1. Tower of Babel: Lake discusses the biblical story of the Tower of Babel and its implications for understanding the origins of ancient civilizations and the diversity of languages.
2. Nephilim and Fallen Angels: Exploration of the concept of Nephilim (giants) and fallen angels as described in ancient texts, and their supposed influence on human history and culture.
3. Occultism and Secret Societies: Analysis of occult practices and secret societies throughout history, proposing connections between ancient rituals and modern geopolitical agendas.
4. Globalism vs. Nationalism: Lake examines the tension between globalism and nationalism, drawing parallels between current political trends and ancient power dynamics.
5. End-Times Prophecy: The book delves into biblical prophecies about the end times, interpreting historical events and current affairs as signs of impending apocalyptic events.
6. Spiritual Warfare: Discussion of spiritual warfare and the battle between good and evil as portrayed in biblical narratives and ancient mythologies.
7. Ancient Technologies: Lake speculates on the existence of advanced ancient technologies and their potential influence on human civilization, suggesting they may have been suppressed or misused.
8. Cultural and Linguistic Evolution: Exploration of theories about the evolution of languages and cultures, particularly influenced by biblical narratives and ancient Near Eastern texts.
9. Alien Influence Hypothesis: Lake discusses theories proposing extraterrestrial or interdimensional influences on human history and the development of civilizations.
10. Preparation for Apocalyptic Scenarios: The book suggests practical preparations for potential apocalyptic scenarios based on biblical prophecy and historical analysis.

Questions from a Scientific Point of View on History

1. How does the book reconcile biblical narratives with archaeological evidence and scientific dating methods?
2. What empirical evidence supports the existence of Nephilim or other supernatural beings described in ancient texts?
3. How do ancient texts and mythologies, which the book heavily relies on, compare with historical records and scholarly interpretations?
4. Can theories about advanced ancient technologies be substantiated with tangible evidence, or do they remain speculative?
5. What are the mainstream scholarly perspectives on globalism, occultism, and secret societies, as compared to the interpretations presented in the book?
In conclusion, The Shinar Directive by Michael Lake offers an intriguing exploration of ancient history and biblical prophecy, challenging readers to reconsider conventional interpretations. While it provides a wealth of information and alternative viewpoints, its reliance on speculative theories and theological interpretations may not fully satisfy readers seeking empirical evidence and scientific rigor in understanding historical phenomena.

Required reading for Every Christian I think

It is the most well researched book I have ever read on this subject. For those show at to make sense of all that I happening around us. Read this book
I also like the fact that it is balanced. I struggle with the teaching that is condemning Christians to cultural Judaism. I struggle with having to give up the name of Jesus Christ. The name through which I am saved, been delivered for demonic oppression and seen countless of miracles happen. Most authors on this subject take extreme positions. Micheal Lakes stance is balanced.
He also gives us practical advice about surviving these end times.
He has a way of summarizing what he has covered before moving to a new topic. I love that
I hada hard time putting this book down. I've read the book by his wife. Also another must read.

A comprehensive overview of the Old Testament account of the Tower of Babel in Genesis and the true identity of Nimrod. Astounding insight into the true character of this little-known "man" and his connection to the evil we see once again unfolding in our own time. To be sure, some Biblical background is helpful, but not absolutely necessary. You can use your Bible to read the references and follow along and Michael Lake makes it understandable for those not Biblically literate. There were some directions he veered into that I didn't necessarily agree with and some repetition that might have made the book shorter and more concise, but all in all this is an eye-opening narrative that applies equally to today as it did then.

Prepare for the Best, discard all the rest

This book is a primary teaching about the World we've been given to live in.
The "Body of Believers" needs to wake up and understand where they stand.
Dr. Michael Lake as put forward a primer on "How and Where to Start".
This book is a great start. Follow up by visiting Kingdom Intelligence Briefing.

Powerful book with deep theology. Dr. Lake tells it like it is and does not hold back. He goes deep into the biblical truths and the science and culture. It's been awhile since I've read his books, so I'm not good with writing a detailed review. However, his books are the kind that you can read over and over and still get/see something new that you missed before. You will enjoy the book and grow in you walk with Messiah when you read any of his books.

Dr. Lake avidly describes the time we live in with the importance of Genesis and the OT to the modern believer, to our daily life, and puts in perspective how to prepare us for the coming agenda that is as ancient as the Scriptures. I highly recommend this book to anyone who considers their faith to be serious.
