Moriel's 2007 article in Afrikaans (excerpt translated into English below) is unequivocal in identifying the Metatron as Jesus. This is not an Acts 17:22-23 apologetic to an "unknown god" as Prasch has recently claimed, rather it is a devious attempt to substitute Jesus Christ with a named mythical Jewish figure. (Titus 1:14).

Prasch condemns the Kabballah as "absolutely occult". He goes on to say: "It comes from Babylonian gnosticism repackaged in Jewish terminology, but it is of occult origin. It is a false belief system of a corrupted Judaism that denies its Messiah." {1} By some perverse reasoning, Prasch uses the Kabballah, a source that he absolutely condemns, in order to insert the occult mythical figure the Metatron in place of Jesus Christ into the very Throne Room of God! (Revelation 5:6).
Prasch was heavily involved with the ecumenical Messianic Jewish Christian organization Jews For Jesus after leaving a cult called "Forever Family". Jews For Jesus gave Prasch financial assistance in order to help him get through seminary, and this seems to have been the point at which his Jewish "adventure" began.
Prasch: "One thing I know for sure is that I would not be in the ministry today if it were not for the way that God used Moishe Rosen and Jews For Jesus." {2}
UK Apologetics Library: "Jews for Jesus participated in the first ecumenical conference that I attended with press credentials. It was New Orleans ’87. There were about 35,000 people in attendance representing some 40 denominations, and one-half were Roman Catholics." {5}
Prasch's Fake Jewish Paternal Ancestry
Prasch's alleged ID certificate is actually an application form to replace lost immigration documents:

Prasch and Jews For Jesus
Prasch: "One thing I know for sure is that I would not be in the ministry today if it were not for the way that God used Moishe Rosen and Jews For Jesus." {2}
Coincidentally, Jews For Jesus also cite some disturbing comparisons between the Metatron and Jesus in their article "Kabbalah's Best Kept Secret?" {3}
Prasch is (supposedly) against the ecumenical movement, and yet he associates with, and approves of, Anglican ecumenists and false prophets David Noakes and Clifford Hill of Issachar Ministries. {4} Prasch could hardly have been unaware of Jews for Jesus radical ecumenism.
Prasch's Fake Jewish Paternal Ancestry
Chris Rosebrough recently debunked Prasch's alleged Jewish paternal ancestry. In the process he discovered that Prasch's bogus certification of his family tree is actually a Nazi document dated the 5th of June 1939, and that Adolf and Wolff Brasch from Leipzig are not listed in Prasch's ancestry. {6}

For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough. (2 Corinthians 11:4).
Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind.. (Colossians 2:18 cf. Revelation 19:10).
Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11).
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8).
