Prepared by Dr James Alexander Robertson, Emissary of Yah
Declaration: I testify that this work has been prepared after more than thirty years of seeking to know the Almighty Creator and His ways and to understand error and truth in great detail and with much fasting seeking truth. I first read The Final Quest and The Call in around 1998 and have been deeply impacted by them.
I truly believe that this rendering of The Final Quest and The Call is reasonably accurate and pleasing to the Almighty and of value to anyone who will make use of it.
In preparing this version it has been my regular prayer “Father, judge me severely and correct me harshly that I may serve you more perfectly” – I have prayed this on and off for over 25 years and on this basis I claim a high level of confidence in what I have written.

Version 1.03
Introduction
The visions of Rick Joyner reported in The Final Quest, are arguably the most important visions recorded in the 20th Century and quite possibly the most important visions on record (including the Bible). In particular the visions of the Throne Room and the Judgment contain information that is critically important to every human being on Earth today.
For this reason I have added The Final Quest as a third component of my rendering of the Bible – I regard it as being at least as important as the Bible in the present age. I have read the physical book at least ten times as an extension of my Bible study and have given away dozens of copies over the years. I have also written a number of articles drawing on what I have learned from these writings. In particular, “2024.01.03 Where will YOU Spend Eternity? With Commentary on The Final Quest -- Third Edition” [ETIV 35] is important collateral reading.
I originally read the published version of The Final Quest in book form in the 1996 printing by Whitaker House, 30 Hunt Valley Circle, New Kensington, PA 15068. ISBN: 0-88368-478-0. The book is available in many book stores and over the Internet, including at Eagle Star Ministries, the ministry of Rick Joyner, at http://www.eaglestar.org and at Amazon.com it is also available at “Scanned Copy of The Final Quest with James Robertson Notes pdf” -- this is the version on which my original commentary was based and on which this rendering is based.
Other References
This document should be read in conjunction with the Introduction to MattihYahoo to Revelation {the New Testament} [ETIV 01] which outlines a number of critically important principles with regard to modern thinking regarding the writings inspired by Yah.
About Rick Joyner and his Visions
At the time of receiving these visions it is my understanding that Rick Joyner was the most senior Emissary and Seer in the World with a very special relationship with the Almighty Creator, whose true Name is “Yah the Eternally Self-Existing”. These visions should therefore be give high priority in the lives of Believers. The visions of the Throne Room and the experience of the Judgment are arguably the most important information that has been given to Believers since the time of Yahooshua.
In considering what follows it is important to be aware that the common errors including incorrect names of Yah and Yahooshua, confusing Yahooshua with Yah, Bible is the Word of God, Canon of Scripture, amongst the most important, occur throughout these books. As with the Bible I have adjusted these errors to render the book as accurately as possible from Yah’s perspective.
The Rules of Engagement
In considering these two books, as presented by Rick Joyner, and also in considering what was shown to him and told to him during these visions it is vital to be aware of the Rules of Engagement refer to “2021.04.02 The Essence of the Rules of Engagement and The Contest” [ETIV 37]. At the time that Satan, then Hilel, challenged Yah to the Contest it was agreed that:
- Neither Yah nor Satan can communicate any information unless asked by the human being concerned.
- Neither Yah nor Satan can DO anything on Earth except they get a human being to do it.
Neither Yah nor Satan can communicate any information unless asked by the human being concerned
This is little understood and vitally important. Yah cannot communicate anything to any human being unless that human being has first asked the relevant question.
The reason that Joyner received so much revelation in these visions was because he was praying and asking about so many issues.
Regrettably, there were issues that he did not ask about – for example, in the Final Quest Chapter 5 verse 157 he reports that the person he is speaking to in the Throne Room says “157 It is also true that the second death is much more terrible than we understood” Regrettably Joyner does not ask what the speaker means and therefore he does not get revelation of a critically important issue. In reading The Final Quest I asked many questions and received revelation on items such as this – many of these are touched on in the commentary (footnotes). There are a significant number of other items.
This also means that Yah, Yahooshua, the Spokesmen {Prophets} and the Messengers {Angels} are not permitted to correct a human being who is in error. So there are statements that Joyner makes that are incorrect but Yahooshua and others were not permitted to correct him so he assumed that his wrong thinking was correct. For example in Chapter 5.1 verse 619 Joyner states “I think that I owe more to you than to anyone else who was not canonized in Scripture”. In Father’s terms there is no such thing as “the Canon of Scripture” – see “2020.12.05 Yah did NOT Cease Speaking 2,000 years ago! There is NO “Canon of Scripture”!” [ETIV 36] at
There are other examples, including the incorrect Names The LORD, Jesus, God, etcetera – see notes that follow and the commentary (footnotes).
Neither Yah nor Satan can DO anything on Earth except they get a human being to do it
This is an extension of the previous point.
Over and above this Yah is UNABLE to do anything on Earth unless a Believer in close alignment with Him prays it into existence and in many cases takes concrete actions to bring it to pass. So ALL of the visions reported by Joyner, including but not limited to The Final Quest and the Call are given NOT to tell people what will come but to show the person receiving the vision what Yah DESIRES to happen. On this basis the response of mankind to the visions of Joyner has been woefully inadequate.
In other words, so-called “Prophesy” is instructions to Intercessors and Emissaries to bring the “prophesy” to fruition – so it is with The Final Quest and The Call – committed Believers must pray these visions into existence! If this does NOT happen the “prophesy” will FAIL!
I will touch on some of these things in the commentary (footnotes).
Only about 2.5% of the Bible is “Scripture”
Strictly speaking the concept of “Scripture” relates to words that are dictated by Yah and written down by the person to whom they are communicated verbatim. Yah has said to me that only about 2.5% of the Bible meets this criterion. All the rest is the writings of human beings and much of the Bible is history that does NOT require inspiration to record it.
This is a very important issue in considering The Final Quest and The Call. Specifically at Chapter 1.3 relating to “Using Prophetic Revelations” verses 1 & 2 Joyner writes “1 I must state emphatically that I do not believe that any kind of prophetic revelation is for the purpose of establishing doctrine. 2 We have the Scriptures for that.” This is commonplace Christian thinking and it is GROSS error! As I have said above, the visions of Joyner under discussion are MORE IMPORTANT than most of the Bible and yet he has devalued them seriously with this thinking.
As a consequence of this Joyner on occasion waited weeks before recording the visions with resulting loss of precision and completeness. There are also substantial portions of his experience that are not recorded at all, for example what he learned with the blue, green and red stones before entering the Throne Room. This may be in subsequent books but I have not encountered them.
It is important to understand that in these experiences and writing down the visions Joyner has seriously underestimated his standing with Yah and has therefore treated his revelations more lightly than he should, he states in the Introduction that on some occasions he left several weeks between a vision and writing it down. This is unfortunate and may have contributed to some loss of accuracy of the record.
Returning to the topic of “Scripture” Yah is just as interested today in communicating with His people as He was in any previous age. It is extremely foolish to suggest that He has ceased communicating or that His current communications are less valuable than those of the past.
The Name of the Creator is Yah NOT The LORD
Joyner consistently refers to the Creator as “the Lord” which is completely incorrect albeit common usage – refer to the introduction to the books from MattihYahoo to Revelation {the “New Testament”} for detailed discussion.
The Correct Designation of the Creator is “The Almighty” NOT God
Similarly the Hebrew word translated “God” is accurately “The Almighty” or “Mighty One”, again refer to the introduction to the books from MattihYahoo to Revelation for detailed discussion.
The Correct Name of the one commonly called “Jesus” is “Yahooshua” meaning “Yah is Salvation”
This is another common Christian error, see the Introduction cited above. There is also confusion between “The Lord” being Yah and “the Lord”, as in Adonay, being Yahooshua.
The Footnotes
The footnotes will address these points and others as they occur.
My Goal – bridging the gaps
My goal in publishing this commentary and footnotes is to cover what I understand to be critical gaps between what Joyner observed and also what he recorded within the confines of the Rules of Engagement and what needs to be understood and ACTED upon today.
Future versus Present Tense
It seems that Joyner falls into the trap of seeing the visions in the present tense and happening then when, in fact in many instances they are setting out future goals that have to be attained and which those who receive the message are called to bring to pass or to counter – this relates particularly to the Battle and climbing the Mountain. If Believers do NOT action what is shown in these visions they will NOT happen!
To understand what I am saying consider the example of DaniEl in Babylon Fasting and Praying for the return of the exiles to Jerusalem after he becomes aware of the message of YirmeYahoo {Jeremiah} that the people in exile would return after 70 years -- see DaniEl Chapter 9 versus 1 to 7:
“1 IN the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
“2 In the first year of his reign I DaniEl understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of Yah the Eternally Self-Existing came to YirmeYahoo the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
“3 And I set my face unto Yah the Eternally Self-Existing Almighty, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
“4 And I prayed unto Yah the Eternally Self-Existing my Mighty One, and made my confession, and said, O Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, the great and dreadful Mighty One, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that Chesed him, and to them that keep his commandments;
“5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:
“6 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
“7 O Yah the Eternally Self-Existing, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Yahoowdah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all YsraEl, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.”
This passage continues as DaniEl seeks Yah and eventually the way is opened for the people to return to Jerusalem.
This is a critically important principle in understanding visions of this nature.
Conclusion
These points will be further elaborated on in the commentary in the footnotes. There are two versions of each book available on the website – the book with verse numbers but otherwise untouched and a second copy with my commentary in the way of footnotes and other notes. I encourage you to read the second version.
It is my hope that you will find the ETI Version illuminating and that you will gain enduring Eternal value from reading it. Please feel free to email me on James.ETI.Version@ETIMin.org with questions and suggestions for improvement.

To the extent that it may be alleged that I have infringed the copyright of Rick Joyner it is my contention that these visions were a free gift from Yah and, just as I waive copyright for my material, Joyner should waive copyright on this material. I have made several attempts to contact Morning Star Ministries with no success.
