 Welcome to Double Portion Inheritance Ministries!

Maria Merola is the founder of “Double Portion Inheritance,” since August of 2007. This photo was taken in August of 2007, when I was 47 years old. This was the summer when YaHuWaH called me into full-time ministry, and he also gave me the name “Double Portion Inheritance.” 

What does the name of the ministry mean? Why is it called “Double Portion Inheritance?”  To learn more, see the blog entitled: What is The Double Portion Inheritance?

Who is Maria Merola? Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I was born on August 18, 1960 into an Italian, Roman Catholic family, as both parents were born in Naples Italy, but they both immigrated to American after World War II. My birth name is Maria Domenica Merola. My married name since 2014. is Maria Merola Wold. Pictured is me, at age 2 1/2 being held by my father, Dominic Merola, and my mother Anna Merola holding my baby brother, John in 1962.

The town where I was born, is New Castle, Pennsylvania, (about 60 miles north of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania). New Castle was, (and still is) heavily populated with Italian immigrants, as well as Greeks, Polish, and African-Americans. Growing up in New Castle, was like growing up in a melting pot of various ethnic influences, with a whopping 30% of the population being Italians. 

Although I am 100% Italian (first-generation), I have had a great love for the nation of Yisra’el, and the Yahuwdiym (Jewish) people since being born-again between 1974-1981. In 1974, I encountered a friend in my childhood neighborhood who shared the true gospel of Messiah with me, as he explained the need for all people to become “born-again,” according to John 3:3 and 1st Peter 2:3.

This had been a foreign concept to me, because it was never taught to us in Catholic School by the nuns. We were erroneously taught that being sprinkled with water on the forehead (as an infant), insured our salvation. It was in 1974, when I first learned that all people are born into the world with a fallen nature, (which we have inherited from Adam). Scripture confirms this, as it is written, that by Adam, (the first man), sin entered into the world (Romans 5:12-14). 

And because we are born with this fallen nature (inherited from Adam), all people must be “born-again,” or we cannot enter the Kingdom of Elohiym. 

Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah 17:9) The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 

Tehilliym (Psalm) 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 

Bereshiyth (Genesis) 6:5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of Elohiym. 

Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 

In the summer of 1974, (at the age of 14), this was the first time I had heard of the concept of being spiritually reborn (as taught by our Messiah in John 3:3-8). For the first time in my life, I realized that I needed a savior, and that’s when I first repeated a “sinner’s prayer,” with another teenage boy from my neighborhood named “Dominic.” Dominic had a special “glow” about him. 

He beamed with joy and excitement every day, as he walked through our neighborhood like a modern-day “John the Baptist,” I made a verbal acknowledgement that I was born a sinner by nature, and that I needed a savior. I knew that the one who could save me, (by giving me a new nature), was the Messiah I had read about in the Bible. Back then, I knew him as “Jesus Christ.” 

However, I would eventually learn his true name, Yahuwshuwa (Joshua in English). It would be six more years, before I completely surrendered my life to Yahuwshuwa, as my Messiah. On February 10th, 1981, I was called out of a life of sin, and that’s when I announced to my family, that I was leaving Roman Catholicism, much to their “shock and horror.” 

I transitioned from a life of living selfishly, into a surrendered life of faith in Yahuwshuwa. Within that first year, I spent every waking hour reading the Scriptures, (beginning with Genesis), and finishing with the Book of Revelation. It was during that first year, that I had an insatiable hunger to understand the ways of Elohiym our Creator.

That same year, I was immersed (baptized) in water, but also with the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) and fire. What came along with my being filled with the Spirit of Yah, was the evidence of speaking with “renewed tongues” (Isaiah 6:5-7; 28:11; Mark 16:17; Acts 2:2-17; 1st Corinthians 12:1-11 & 14:1-40). 

This gift has been promised to every Messiah-follower as a “sign” of his “Renewed” (New) Covenant (Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16). 

To learn more about this gift, see the following blogs:



When we are “Born-again of incorruptible seed” (1st Peter 2:3), we are given the same spiritual nature of our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa! It is only by the “The blood of the lamb,” that we are cleansed from the evil nature. a Yahuwshuwa himself told us that if we “Eat his flesh and drink his blood,” we have his life in us (John 6:54-56). 

Eating his flesh, and drinking his blood, is not meant to be literal, as Roman Catholicism teaches. Our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa was sharing with us a “metaphor” when he said the following words:

Yahuwchanon (John) 6:35....I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.

The word of Elohiym is our sustenance, and the only thing that can satisfy the human heart: 

Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Elohiym. 

Luqas (Luke) 4:4 And Yahuwshuwa answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of Elohiym. 

In other words, when we “come to him,” we are eating his flesh (metaphorically), because our spiritual hunger shall be satisfied. When we “believe on him,” we shall never thirst, because our spiritual thirst shall be satisfied. 

Therefore, “eating his flesh” is a metaphor for reading his words, and allowing them to transform our lives. “Drinking his blood,” is a metaphor for allowing his words to make us clean (John 15:3; Joel 3:21), thereby changing our very DNA! 

Thus, being born-again of “incorruptible seed,” means that we have Messiah’s seed in us. Just like a plant is sown into the ground, it must first “die” (decompose), before it produces life, and springs forth into a green plant! Similarly, those of us that have our Messiah’s “seed” in us, shall one day be given immortal/incorruptible bodies, just like him! (See Ezekiel 37:1-14; Romans 8:23; 1st Corinthians 15:35-54). 

If you would like to experience this transformation, pray these words, and mean them from your heart: 

“Heavenly Father, I know that I was born a sinner by nature, and I must be reborn spiritually. I come to you now, asking you to forgive my sins. I repent of my sinful ways, and I ask you to cleanse me with the blood of Messiah, Yahuwshuwa. 

I turn away from all my sinful ways, and I choose to pursue a life of righteousness, by the power of your Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit). I now surrender my life completely to you, Yahuwshuwa, and I invite you to change me, and to transform me into a new creation, after your likeness. 

Let me become ‘born-again’ of your incorruptible seed, and fill me now with your Ruwach ha’Qodesh.” 

If you have recited this prayer, I urge you to continue to pursue a life pleasing to YaHuWaH, by studying the Scriptures, and asking the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) to teach you all things: 

1st Yahuwchanon (John) 2:27 But the anointing which you have received of him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in him.

What our Messiah was telling us, is that the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit), has been given to us when we are “born-again” by the blood of Messiah, and his Spirit will teach us all things. 

It is important not to be turned aside to false teachers, who will lead you into a spiritual ditch. Stay in prayer, constantly, and study the word of Elohiym! Let the Ruwach/Spirit of Yah be your teacher, and if you listen to the teachings of others, weigh it up against Scripture. Now, the question often arises, “Maria, which Bible shall I use?” 

I strongly recommend the “Easy Read King James Bible,” which is the same thing as the 1611 King James Version, without the archaic language. Why do I recommend the King James Version? 

The main reason is because there is a copyright law in America, (and in other nations), requiring Bible Translators to make at least 30% changes to the text, before registering their “version,” as a new copyrightable work, worthy of earning profit. 

These “changes” are required for a new “Bible Version” to be copyrighted. For this reason, I have been using the King James Version since my conversion in 1981, but as I read it, I restore the sacred names of the Father and the Son. 

When I see the name “Jesus Christ,” I read it as “Yahuwshuwa Messiah,” or “Yahuwshua ha’Mashiyach.” 

When I see “God,” I read it as “Elohiym.” 

When I see “LORD” in all capital letters, I say “YaHuWaH,” which is the proper name of our Father. 

When I see “Lord” in lower and uppercase letters in the Tanakh or Old Testament, I read it as “Adonay.” 

In the “New Testament,” it’s a bit more complicated. There are three different definitions in the Greek Textus Receptus for “Lord.” Whenever it’s the word “Kurios,” the word should be the proper name of YaHuWaH. 

The other two definitions mean “master, or a ruler of a household.” I also recommend downloading the “Esword Program” free onto your desktop, and be sure to download KJV & KJV + which enables you to hover over the words, and look up the meaning of each word in the Hebrew Concordance (for the Tanakh/Old Testament) or Greek (for the Briyth Chadashah/New Testament). 


I also recommend the following Bibles: 

The ISR Scriptures Version from 2009.
The Aramaic English New Testament by Andrew Gabriel Roth. 
The HalleluYah Scriptures.

The Little Horn Arises out of America

By Maria Merola אריאל 
© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, August 2002-2023
https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/DPIMinistries 

In this blog, I will be sharing a few unique characteristics about the beast, so that you can begin to see that King Charles does not fit the description of “The Little Horn” of Daniel 7:8 & 8:5; 8:9 & 8:21. 

In Daniel the 7th chapter, Daniel wrote down a dream he had, wherein he saw “four great beasts,” each representing ancient empires of the past. These empires of the past also correlate to the image that was shown to King Nebuchadnezzar in a dream (Daniel 2:1-45). However, these four beasts also represent modern kingdoms since 1929, when Papal Rome had its deadly wound healed by Mussolini under the Lateran Treaty.

The Ancient Empires:

1.) The Lion - Babylon.

2.) The Bear - Medo-Persia.

3.) The Leopard w/four wings and four heads - Greece, and the four generals of Alexander who divided up his kingdom after he died. 

4.) The Diverse Beast - the Roman Empire, different from all the others, having seven heads, and ten horns.

In the 2nd chapter of Daniel, King Nebuchadnezzar had a dream, for which Daniel received the interpretation. Daniel explained the vision, of the giant image of man, (made up of various elements), each of which represent various empires. These four kingdoms that are represented in King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream are as follows:

1.) The head of gold -Babylon.
2.) The chest/arms of silver - Medo-Persia.
3.) The brass hips/thighs - Greece. 
4.) The two iron legs- Rome. 
5.) Ten toes made of iron and clay - Ten European Nations.

These Ten European nations (represented as the ten toes), are the latter-day conquest of Adolph Hitler & Pope Pius XII, during World War II. Following the recovery of a “deadly wound” to the Papal Crown in 1929 (under Mussolini’s Lateran Treaty), a revived Papal Roman Empire formed a military alliance with Germany by signing of the Reichskonkordat Act of 1933.
Many theologians have assumed that Daniel’s dream in chapter 7 are the same kingdoms shown to Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel chapter 2. However, history is known to repeat itself, and prophecy does not stand still in one era of time. Our Creator is the one “Who is, and who was, and who is to come,” (Revelation 1:8 & 4:8). This means that YaHuWaH has written history in the past, and he is continuing to do so in the present, and in the future. 

In Daniel 7:22, we are told that the Ancient of Days (Messiah) returns to earth, and allows the saints (qodeshiym) to possess the kingdoms of this world. This takes place during the reign of the Little Horn, therefore, we know that the fourth kingdom of Daniel 7:24-25 is not speaking of the Ancient Roman Empire. The fourth kingdom is the United States of America, which is also an extension of the Roman Empire, but as the Fourth Reich of Nazi Germany.

We know that the four great beasts of Daniel 7 resemble the kingdoms/empires of ancient history from Daniel chapter 2. However, they are parallel kingdoms, that arise after the healing of the “deadly wound” to the Papal Crown in 1929. In 1798, Napoleon defeated the Papal Crown, leaving the Vatican as a Church, but no longer recognized as a State religion by the European Nations. 

The Protestant Reformation was in full-swing at this point, which is why the Papacy had suffered “A deadly wound by a sword, and did live” (Revelation 13:14). I believe that the “Sword of the Spirit” was the King James Version of the English Bible going into print, which defeated the Papal Crown for a season. The printing of the English Bible dealt a heavy blow to the Papacy, as the many people were finally able to read the Scriptures for themselves, following “The Dark Ages,” wherein the Roman Catholic Church rendered the reading of the Scriptures as illegal and punishable by death. 

Just prior to Napoleon defeating the Papal Crown, the United States of America had won the Revolutionary War in 1776, and declared her independence from the British Crown. 

But America’s independence was short-lived, because in 1871, the United States Congress sold off our nation to foreign bankers to help pay off the debts incurred by the Civil War. Thus, the modern kingdoms seen in Daniel chapter 7, are as follows:

1.) The Lion w/eagle’s wings - Britain & The United States of America.

2.) The Bear w/three ribs - The Soviet Union and its Eastern Bloc satellite states.

3.) The Leopard w/four wings and heads - After WWII, Nazi Germany was divided into four occupied territories, belonging to four nations, which are France, Britain, the United States & Russia Greece.

4.) The Diverse Beast - In 1945, under the Yalta Agreement, the United States of America became a mirror image of the Roman Empire, creating the United Nations, and thus uniting the seven heads, and ten horns of Europe.

There are three places on earth that sit on seven hills. They are as follows: 

1.) The Vatican City.
2.) Washington D.C.
3.) Jerusalem.

Daniel 17:9 tells us that the Mother Harlot religion sits on these seven hills, I discovered that at various times in history, this Church/State religion has moved headquarters. The original harlot was shown to us in the 23rd chapter of Ezekiel. She was known as “Two Sister Harlots,” which are Jerusalem & Samaria. 

After the Roman Siege in 70 A.D., the harlot moved to Rome for approximately 2,000 years. However, in 1871, America became a corporation, and no longer a sovereign nation. This means that America became an extension of the Vatican City Bank (Rome) & the Bank of London.

In 1776, the eagle’s wings (America) were plucked up from the Lion (Britain). But just 95 years later, America became the two horns on the Roman Papal beast, as seen in Revelation 13:11. These two horns are the Democratic & Republican parties, but also a Church & State, just like Rome. After WWII, the United States of America became a World Superpower in 1945, under the Yalta Agreement. This means that the end-time beast (the Little Horn), must arise from the 8th Kingdom/Empire, which is America, not Britain. The British Empire began to decline after WWII, losing much of its territories.

A line-by-line study of Daniel chapter 7 will help us get an accurate picture of the end-time beast.

Daniel 7:2 Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.  

Daniel 7:3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.  

Daniel 7:4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. 

Daniel 7:5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. 

*Explanation: The bear is obviously Russia, or the U.S.SR. But what are these three ribs in it’s mouth? 

During the period of its existence, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was by area the world’s largest country. It was also one of the most diverse, with more than 100 distinct nationalities living within its borders. The majority of the population, however, was made up of East Slavs (Russians, Ukrainians, and Belorussians); these groups together made up more than two-thirds of the total population in the late 1980s. The Eastern Bloc Members of the USSR are shown in this graphic: 

1.) Satellite States: Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria.

2.) USSR - aligned until 1948: Yugoslavia.

3.) USSR - aligned until 1960: Albania.

Daniel 7:6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.  

*Explanation: Nazi Germany is represented as the leopard in modern times, although in ancient times, the Grecian Empire was represented as the leopard. In ancient times, the wings on the back of the leopard, and its four heads represent the four generals of Alexander the Great who took over his conquered territories after he died. These four generals who succeeded Alexander are: Antigonus, Cassander, Ptolemy, and Seleucus. 

In modern times the four wings on the back of the leopard, represent four nations. After the Potsdam Conference in 1945, Germany was divided up into four occupied zones: The Potsdam Conference, 1945

1.) Britain.
2.) France.
3.) Russia.
4.) The United States.

Daniel 7:7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.  

*Explanation: This fourth beast is the United States of America, which has the most powerful military on earth, and it is diverse (different) from the other beasts. The ten horns on this beast are the United Nations that were formed in 1945 after World War II, with America as it’s leading charter member.

Daniel 7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.  

*Explanation: The Little Horn that comes up among the Ten European Horns is the United States of America, who was responsible for plucking up by the roots three European Nations under President Reagan, thus freeing them from Soviet rule. 

The Ancient of Days Returns to Earth

Daniel 7:9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.  

Daniel 7:10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.  

Daniel 7:11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spoke: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.  

Daniel 7:12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.  

Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.  

Daniel 7:18 But the qodeshiym (saints) of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.  

Daniel 7:19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;  

Daniel 7:20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spoke very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.  

Daniel 7:21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the qodeshiym (saints), and prevailed against them;  

*Explanation: The United Nations & the United States will make war against the true followers of Messiah, and will prevail against them, until our Messiah returns.

Daniel 7:22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the qodeshiym (saints) of the most High; and the time came that the qodeshiym (saints) possessed the kingdom.  

Daniel 7:23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.  

Daniel 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.  

The Hebrew word for “subdue” in this passage is as follows:

#8214 shphal shef-al' (Aramaic) corresponding to 8213:--abase, humble, put down, subdue.

*Explanation: The ten horns are the European nations that were conquered by Nazi Germany, and the other horn that arose after WWII is the United States of America. Previously, we read that the Little Horn (America) under President Reagan had uprooted three of these European nations. However, this time, the Little Horn subdues three kings, rather than uprooting them. 

This can be substantiated by looking at the Hebrew words for “plucked up by the roots,” versus “subdued.” These two words have very different meanings. The Hebrew word in Daniel 7:8 for “plucked up by the roots,” is #6131 & 6132, which literally means “to exterminate.”

Daniel 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the qodeshiym (saints) of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. 

*Explanation: The final leader of this Little Horn is the last United States President, which I believe will be Donald Trump. Daniel 7:25 says that the Little Horn “Speaks great words and blasphemies against the Most High,” which we have already witnessed. See my other blog entitled: “Is the Beast & His Mark Here Already?”

Daniel 7:25 also says that he “Shall wear out the saints, and that he shall think to change times and laws.” President Donald Trump already did this on June 3, 2020, when he wrote an Executive Order, making it illegal to speak out against other religions of the world. At this website, you will see at the top of the page, the emblem for the United States Embassy of the Holy See!


You will notice from this graphic below, four leaders from the four great beasts of the Potsdam Conference. They are: Britain, Russia, France, and the United States. 

Of these four leaders, one of them has a look that is more “stout” than his fellows (Daniel 7:20). President Trump is not only physically more stout than the others, but he also has the personality of a leader that is more stout. 

The Hebrew word for “stout” (rab), means “captain, chief, great, huge, domineering.” The dictionary defines the word “stout” as “bulky in figure, heavy built, corpulent, thickset, fat, bold, brave, dauntless, firm, stubborn, resolute, forceful, vigorous.”

As you can see by this image, President Trump commands a domineering presence over the other world leaders. This brings us to the question of what role is King Charles III playing on the world stage? Is King Charles one of many Anti-Messiah leaders on the world stage? Yes, he is!


But is King Charles III the the Little Horn who arises out of the eleventh horn described in Daniel 7:8 & 24? No, King Charles does not display all the characteristics of Daniel’s Little Horn. To learn more, see my other blogs where I make a comparison between President Trump & King Charles III: 




The Little Horn must arise out of the 8th World Superpower, which is the United States of America, according to Revelation 17:10-11. The Greek word in Revelation 17:10 for “kings” is “basileus,” which simply means “a base of power.” Therefore, the word is not necessarily speaking of a literal king, but a kingdom or an empire.

The Eight Kings/Empires of Revelation 17:10-11 are as follows: 

1.) Egypt (2,768 years). 
2.) Assyria (756 years). 
3.) Babylon (299 years). 
4.) Medo-Persia (66 years). 
5.) Greece (290 years)
6.) Imperial & Papal Rome - (1,842 years). 
7.) British Empire - Continues a short space (108 years). 
8.) United States of America - 1945- to present under Yalta Agreement. 

In 96 A.D., in the days when the Apostle Yahuwchanon (John) received the revelation on the Island of Patmos, the first five empires leading up to the Grecian Empire had already fallen. This is indicated by the phrase “Five are fallen, and one is” (Revelation 17:10).

The next empire in line was Rome, which was the sixth empire of history. The seventh empire was said to “Continue a short space,” (Revelation 17:10), and the British Empire only lasted for 108 years, which is much shorter than previous empires. The only one that was shorter was Medo-Persia.

In Revelation 17:11, we read “And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and IS OF THE SEVEN, and shall go into perdition.” America is the 8th Kingdom or World Superpower since 1945, therefore, America is “Of the Seven.” 

The United States of America represents the eagle’s wings that were plucked from the lion, (Britain) and came out of the 7th Empire, after the Revolutionary War in 1776 (Daniel 7:4). 

The End-Time Beast Recovers from a Deadly Wound

We have already learned that the Roman Papacy suffered a deadly wound under Napoleon in 1798, but that wound was healed in 1929 under Mussolini’s Lateran Treaty. However, America is the “mirror image” (Revelation 13:14-15) of the ancient Roman Beast, the two iron legs of Daniel 2:33. Additionally, it is apparent that prophecy does not stand still in one era of time. We have witnessed that prophecy continues to march forward with each passing generation, providing opportunity for us to learn from the past.

Since our Creator is the one “Who, is, and who was, and who is to come” (Revelation 1:4-8 & 4:8), it stands to reason that the prophecies concerning the beast, are also described as “The beast that was, and is not, and yet is” (Revelation 17:8). The original beast was the Ancient Kingdom of Nimrod in the land of Shinar. However, the same beast (that old serpent called the devil and Satan), who tempted Eve in the garden, would suffer a deadly wound many times, but he would find a way to return with each successive empire throughout history. 


A few people have objected to the idea that the Greek word “machaira” means “judicial punishment,” but here is the proof from the Strong’s Greek Concordance:


As you can see, this word is more than just a noun. It is also a verb that means “judicial punishment, war, controversy, fighting, striving, battle.”

The “Sword of the Spirit” is the word of Elohiym which judges people according to the Law of Moses. Our American judicial system in is made up of laws that are derived from the Mosaic Law (Torah).

 Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, which is the word of Elohiym. 

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of Elohiym is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged SWORD piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 

The Greek word “machaira” can also mean a judicial decree declared verbally or written in a legal document: 

Revelation 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and OUT OF HIS MOUTH WENT A SHARP TWO-EDGED SWORD: and his countenance was as the sun shines in his strength.
Revelation 2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto you quickly, and will fight against them with THE SWORD OF MY MOUTH.

Revelation 19:15 And OUT OF HIS MOUTH GOES A SHARP SWORD, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty Elohiym.

Thus, we can see that the word “sword” is a judgement handed down by the Almighty, via the laws of the land. At this time in history, President Donald Trump is in deep trouble with the laws of the land, and this makes it appear as if his chances of returning as President are slim to none.

However, we have the record of the prophets, telling us that the empirical beast (America), as well as the individual man called “The beast,” will recover from this judicial punishment called “The sword.” To learn more about how Trump’s arrest and indictments are meant to manipulate the minds of the public, (as well as perform a powerful Kabbalah Magic ritual), see the following blogs:

The Landing Page of Double Portion Inheritance Ministries

Welcome to Double Portion Inheritance Ministries! 

*At the bottom of this page, you will see an index, where you can access all my blogs according to category and topic.

By Maria Merola אריאל 
© Copyright Double Portion Inheritance, August 2002-2023

Maria Merola is the founder of “Double Portion Inheritance,” since August of 2007. This photo was taken in August of 2007, when I was 47 years old. This was the summer when YaHuWaH called me into full-time ministry, and he also gave me the name “Double Portion Inheritance.” 

What does the name of the ministry mean? Why is it called “Double Portion Inheritance?”  To learn more, see the blog entitled: What is The Double Portion Inheritance?

Who is Maria Merola? Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I was born on August 18, 1960 into an Italian, Roman Catholic family, as both parents were born in Naples Italy, but they both immigrated to American after World War II. My birth name is Maria Domenica Merola. My married name since 2014. is Maria Merola Wold. Pictured is me, at age 2 1/2 being held by my father, Dominic Merola, and my mother Anna Merola holding my baby brother, John in 1962.

The town where I was born, is New Castle, Pennsylvania, (about 60 miles north of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania). New Castle was, (and still is) heavily populated with Italian immigrants, as well as Greeks, Polish, and African-Americans. Growing up in New Castle, was like growing up in a melting pot of various ethnic influences, with a whopping 30% of the population being Italians. 

Although I am 100% Italian (first-generation), I have had a great love for the nation of Yisra’el, and the Yahuwdiym (Jewish) people since being born-again between 1974-1981. In 1974, I encountered a friend in my childhood neighborhood who shared the true gospel of Messiah with me, as he explained the need for all people to become “born-again,” according to John 3:3 and 1st Peter 2:3.

This had been a foreign concept to me, because it was never taught to us in Catholic School by the nuns. We were erroneously taught that being sprinkled with water on the forehead (as an infant), insured our salvation. It was in 1974, when I first learned that all people are born into the world with a fallen nature, (which we have inherited from Adam). Scripture confirms this, as it is written, that by Adam, (the first man), sin entered into the world (Romans 5:12-14). 

And because we are born with this fallen nature (inherited from Adam), all people must be “born-again,” or we cannot enter the Kingdom of Elohiym. 

Yirmeyahuw (Jeremiah 17:9) The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 

Tehilliym (Psalm) 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 

Bereshiyth (Genesis) 6:5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of Elohiym. 

Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 

In the summer of 1974, (at the age of 14), this was the first time I had heard of the concept of being spiritually reborn (as taught by our Messiah in John 3:3-8). For the first time in my life, I realized that I needed a savior, and that’s when I first repeated a “sinner’s prayer,” with another teenage boy from my neighborhood named “Dominic.” Dominic had a special “glow” about him. 

He beamed with joy and excitement every day, as he walked through our neighborhood like a modern-day “John the Baptist,” I made a verbal acknowledgement that I was born a sinner by nature, and that I needed a savior. I knew that the one who could save me, (by giving me a new nature), was the Messiah I had read about in the Bible. Back then, I knew him as “Jesus Christ.” 

However, I would eventually learn his true name, Yahuwshuwa (Joshua in English). It would be six more years, before I completely surrendered my life to Yahuwshuwa, as my Messiah. On February 10th, 1981, I was called out of a life of sin, and that’s when I announced to my family, that I was leaving Roman Catholicism, much to their “shock and horror.” 

I transitioned from a life of living selfishly, into a surrendered life of faith in Yahuwshuwa. Within that first year, I spent every waking hour reading the Scriptures, (beginning with Genesis), and finishing with the Book of Revelation. It was during that first year, that I had an insatiable hunger to understand the ways of Elohiym our Creator.

That same year, I was immersed (baptized) in water, but also with the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) and fire. What came along with my being filled with the Spirit of Yah, was the evidence of speaking with “renewed tongues” (Isaiah 6:5-7; 28:11; Mark 16:17; Acts 2:2-17; 1st Corinthians 12:1-11 & 14:1-40). 

This gift has been promised to every Messiah-follower as a “sign” of his “Renewed” (New) Covenant (Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16). 

To learn more about this gift, see the following blogs:



When we are “Born-again of incorruptible seed” (1st Peter 2:3), we are given the same spiritual nature of our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa! It is only by the “The blood of the lamb,” that we are cleansed from the evil nature. a Yahuwshuwa himself told us that if we “Eat his flesh and drink his blood,” we have his life in us (John 6:54-56). 

Eating his flesh, and drinking his blood, is not meant to be literal, as Roman Catholicism teaches. Our Messiah, Yahuwshuwa was sharing with us a “metaphor” when he said the following words:

Yahuwchanon (John) 6:35....I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.

The word of Elohiym is our sustenance, and the only thing that can satisfy the human heart: 

Mattithyahuw (Matthew) 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Elohiym. 

Luqas (Luke) 4:4 And Yahuwshuwa answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of Elohiym. 

In other words, when we “come to him,” we are eating his flesh (metaphorically), because our spiritual hunger shall be satisfied. When we “believe on him,” we shall never thirst, because our spiritual thirst shall be satisfied. 

Therefore, “eating his flesh” is a metaphor for reading his words, and allowing them to transform our lives. “Drinking his blood,” is a metaphor for allowing his words to make us clean (John 15:3; Joel 3:21), thereby changing our very DNA! 

Thus, being born-again of “incorruptible seed,” means that we have Messiah’s seed in us. Just like a plant is sown into the ground, it must first “die” (decompose), before it produces life, and springs forth into a green plant! Similarly, those of us that have our Messiah’s “seed” in us, shall one day be given immortal/incorruptible bodies, just like him! (See Ezekiel 37:1-14; Romans 8:23; 1st Corinthians 15:35-54). 

If you would like to experience this transformation, pray these words, and mean them from your heart: 

“Heavenly Father, I know that I was born a sinner by nature, and I must be reborn spiritually. I come to you now, asking you to forgive my sins. I repent of my sinful ways, and I ask you to cleanse me with the blood of Messiah, Yahuwshuwa. 

I turn away from all my sinful ways, and I choose to pursue a life of righteousness, by the power of your Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit). I now surrender my life completely to you, Yahuwshuwa, and I invite you to change me, and to transform me into a new creation, after your likeness. 

Let me become ‘born-again’ of your incorruptible seed, and fill me now with your Ruwach ha’Qodesh.” 

If you have recited this prayer, I urge you to continue to pursue a life pleasing to YaHuWaH, by studying the Scriptures, and asking the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) to teach you all things: 

1st Yahuwchanon (John) 2:27 But the anointing which you have received of him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in him.

What our Messiah was telling us, is that the Ruwach ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit), has been given to us when we are “born-again” by the blood of Messiah, and his Spirit will teach us all things. 

It is important not to be turned aside to false teachers, who will lead you into a spiritual ditch. Stay in prayer, constantly, and study the word of Elohiym! Let the Ruwach/Spirit of Yah be your teacher, and if you listen to the teachings of others, weigh it up against Scripture. Now, the question often arises, “Maria, which Bible shall I use?” 

I strongly recommend the “Easy Read King James Bible,” which is the same thing as the 1611 King James Version, without the archaic language. Why do I recommend the King James Version? 

The main reason is because there is a copyright law in America, (and in other nations), requiring Bible Translators to make at least 30% changes to the text, before registering their “version,” as a new copyrightable work, worthy of earning profit. 

These “changes” are required for a new “Bible Version” to be copyrighted. For this reason, I have been using the King James Version since my conversion in 1981, but as I read it, I restore the sacred names of the Father and the Son. 

When I see the name “Jesus Christ,” I read it as “Yahuwshuwa Messiah,” or “Yahuwshua ha’Mashiyach.” 

When I see “God,” I read it as “Elohiym.” 

When I see “LORD” in all capital letters, I say “YaHuWaH,” which is the proper name of our Father. 

When I see “Lord” in lower and uppercase letters in the Tanakh or Old Testament, I read it as “Adonay.” 

In the “New Testament,” it’s a bit more complicated. There are three different definitions in the Greek Textus Receptus for “Lord.” Whenever it’s the word “Kurios,” the word should be the proper name of YaHuWaH. 

The other two definitions mean “master, or a ruler of a household.” I also recommend downloading the “Esword Program” free onto your desktop, and be sure to download KJV & KJV + which enables you to hover over the words, and look up the meaning of each word in the Hebrew Concordance (for the Tanakh/Old Testament) or Greek (for the Briyth Chadashah/New Testament). 


I also recommend the following Bibles: 

The ISR Scriptures Version from 2009.
The Aramaic English New Testament by Andrew Gabriel Roth. 
The HalleluYah Scriptures.
