Red Heifer Ceremony Cover-up!

VIDEO:Red Heifer Ceremony - Cover up!

And a man that is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer, and lay them up without the camp in a clean place, and it shall be kept for the congregation of the children of Israel for a water of separation: it is a purification for sin. (Numbers 19:9 AKJV)

Before the prophesied third Temple from the Book of Revelation can be built, a red heifer, a cow that has never had a calf, must be sacrificed so its ashes can purify people and the priests. On July 1st, 2025, a Red Heifer Ceremony took place on a remote hilltop in northern Israel. Israel publicly claims that it was a “practice” ceremony, but was it?

There has been great opposition against the heifers. Because of its connection to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, if Israel states the ceremony to be anything other than a “practice,” it may cause strife and even war. It would most certainly make negotiations to build a Third Temple more difficult. There is a strong possibility that labeling the ceremony is a brilliant cover-up!

Today, we will examine the details surrounding the ceremony to determine if the Red Heifer Ceremony was legit. Two factors are hotly debated concerning the ceremony procedures driving this debate and casting doubt on the legitimacy of the religious event:

1. Was the heifer totally red? Did they have white or black hair?

a. The heifer must be completely red.

2. Where was the ceremony performed?

a. Does it have to be on the Mount of Olives?

Before we look at several factors that support the legitimacy of the ceremony, we can examine both of these procedures to discover if, perhaps, the rabbis of Israel are being as innocent as doves but as crafty as serpents.

Wrong Colors

In the summer of 2025, a claim was made that a couple of white hairs were found on the heifers. Rabbis are required to tell the truth, for lying is a sin. They are good at speaking in such a way that it appears to convey one thing, but it isn’t really what you think. Rabbi Ariel’s wording about the heifers leaves some room for misdirection.

His very precise and cautious choice of words was, “At this moment, it is unclear whether we have in our possession in Israel a red heifer that is verifiably kosher.” He didn’t say there were absolutely no viable heifers, only that it is unclear. Could it be that a suitable red heifer exists but is not being publicly confirmed for security reasons? Could this be misdirection so that a ceremony could be performed unhindered?

Following the Red Heifer Ceremony on July 1st, they claimed that the heifer had two black hairs. I scoured the web for a name to attach to this pronouncement, but have not found one. First, they said it was white hairs, then black. Odd, how nobody wants to be associated with the last heifer’s disqualification. All we have is a press release from the Temple Institute saying, “Oh, please disregard the ceremony, it was only a practice run because black hairs were found on the heifer.” How very convenient!

The Place

Some of the strongest opponents to the legitimacy of the ceremony claim that it wasn’t done on the Mount of Olives, so the ceremony cannot be considered anything but a practice run. Using this as a reason to disqualify it is ridiculous. The very first Red Heifer Ceremony was not performed in Israel before the construction of the First Temple. Where there was no Temple, the sacrifice was not performed on the Mount of Olives! Conducting the ceremony on top of the Temple Mount became a tradition, but it isn’t commanded by God. Here is what He said about it:

“This is the statute of the law that the Lord has commanded: Tell the people of Israel to bring you a red heifer without defect, in which there is no blemish, and on which a yoke has never come. And you shall give it to Eleazar the priest, and it shall be taken outside the camp and slaughtered before him. (Numbers 19:2-3 ESV)

The heifer has to be taken outside the camp, that is all. Was the ceremony done outside the city? Yes. So the location is not a reason to disqualify the ceremony.

Supporting Evidence

There are a few facts connected to this event that point to a cover-up of a legitimate Red Heifer Ceremony.

1. Statement from Heifer Ranch Owner: Byron Stinson

2. Who performed it

3. What came from it

The Ranch Owner

An unprecedented twenty-one perfect red heifers were born in this generation. Seven were brought to Israel from a ranch owned by Byron Stinson. Five of those were accepted by Israel.

On August 6th, Byron Stinson posted a comment about the ceremony. I captured a screenshot of it one day before Facebook removed the post. Here are some quotes that I have highlighted within the text so they can see the full context:

But it was real and the first in 2000 years. Some will say all you need is to follow the Torah. We did that… I just think the world needs to know. The ceremony went perfectly. With a perfect Priest. In a place outside of the camp. And, in the opinion of those I respect, we used a perfect red heifer. This ceremony was done before HaShem.

This statement was signed by the red heifer ranch owner, Byron Stinson. The Texas ranch has more perfect red heifers that are still maturing. Israel is now determined to breed a herd of red heifers, too. Every year at the Temple, Israel is supposed to sacrifice a heifer, after all. Declaring the Red Heifer Ceremony to be a “practice” could be the biggest red herring of all time!

Performed by a Priest

According to Jewish Tradition, not Biblical instructions, the ceremony of the red heifer cannot be done by just any priest. It is to be done by a Kohanim. They must be descendants of Aaron, a subset of the Levites. The males of this line must be raised without contact with the dead. Of course, the orthodox in Israel take this to the extreme. The Kohanim are raised in a house built off the ground; they are not allowed to have contact with the ground, often being kept indoors all their life.

A Kohen presided over the Red Heifer Ceremony. With the rarity of a Kohen who is properly sanctified by the Talmud traditions, why would they use one on a practice ceremony?

Fruit of the Ceremony

Reportedly, more than 10 gallons of ash have been put into clay jars and have been distributed to various people to ensure there is always a supply available. Why would the ash of a “practice” heifer be kept and distributed? If the ceremony were not authentic, the ash would be worthless.

The Red Heifer Ceremony may really have been a practice run, but there is evidence that leads me to believe a cover-up is occurring. Israel couldn’t announce a real ceremony, which would cause too many issues.

When will the Third Temple be built? The ash from the first red heifer was used from Moses all the way to Solomon and the First Temple: that is, hundreds of years. Just because we may have the ash, it doesn’t mean the Temple will be built next week. We should look for some sort of treaty that gives Israel the right to build on Temple Mount. Then we should look for two people to be empowered by the Lord to give testimony against the nations, calling out the plagues of Moses as they occur.

The truth is that Daniel’s Week could begin this year, in five years, or even longer. We cannot know when, but all who are spiritually awake and alive in God should know the time is close!

These things said he that has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know your works, that you have a name that you live, and are dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore you shall not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and you shall not know what hour I will come on you. (Revelation 3:1-3 AKJV)

Those who have not been connected to the Kingdom of Heaven, who don’t even know they are supposed to be working for God, may be on the verge of dying spiritually. Are you willing to strengthen that which remains? Are you willing to repent, meaning to turn around and go the other way?

But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief. For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness. So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober… (1 Thessalonians 5:4-6 ESV)

Christians are the ten virgins who are asleep because we have been waiting 2000 years for the Bridegroom. It is time for the Bride to awaken; to take stock of what is in your life. Don’t wait until you see the Temple under construction, for then the return of the Lord is already at hand. The time is getting close. Begin re-learning God’s ways so that you are ready for what is on the horizon!
