Stand Up

Our Father in Heaven wants us to stand up. He doesn't require us to kneel or bow or lay ourselves prostate before him. More times than not when one of the Prophets or Apostles fell before him they were instructed to get up or lifted up. The Father wants a relationship based on equality, he wants our friendship. When I read the word Lord in scripture I cringe, I understand its use in context and judge nobody for using the title. The title means master and the Father does not want a "master- servant" relationship, however Ha Satan does.
  Satan is a title as well, Hollywood and uneducated people foster the idea that "satan" is a name, his name is Lucifer. Evil is clever but no genius, hence the continual attempt to counterfeit Our fathers relationship with us by cloaking religion as relationship. Religion is not relationship, one of the definitions for religion is "to bind", which our Father does not want to do to us, he wants us free. There is an entity that does want to bind us.....the adversary, the accuser, Ha Satan....
  The mystery religions that Lucifer has developed and fostered are all very compelling and lure man to his death. The sad thing about these mystery religions is you are usually in too deep to back out by the time you realize what it really is. Hence the term mystery religion. We know Ha Satan is angry and nothing makes him happier then destroying the Fathers children both physically and spiritually. The spiritual war has been going on since Adam.....now we are going to be facing a physical war to coincide with the spiritual war. When one accepts the mystery religion knowingly it is tantamount to putting a bullet in your head. Right now there are over one billion living dead walking on this planet, these are Satans children. These people will strap bombs to their body to murder others because the others will not worship Satan as they do. They are not worried about dying because they are already dead, thus their loving embrace of death.
There are between 5 and 8 million of the living dead in the USA, they have military type camps all over the nation, two for sure here in California. If concerned citizens complain about these camps( gun fire and bombs going off) they are branded "racist".  One thing always thrown out in front of believers is that there is violence in Scripture, particularly the Old Covenant,  and there is. Joshua( Yahshua) was told to go into the lands and kill everything that breathed, men women, children, animals. What most people don't know is that the people Joshua was told to kill were practicing human blood sacrifice, not unlike strapping a bomb on a person, blowing them up and celebrating in the street over death. These people sacrificed their children. This was unacceptable to our Father.
   It is time to stand up. Charles Martell did in 732, in 1683 the Polish King Jan Sobieski with an army of Polish , German and Austrian soldiers did, We are at a time in history where evil is rearing its head in full view of everyone and nothing is being done to stand up to it. Who has the courage to call evil.....well evil. It is time to stand up.

My Ongoing Saga with Easter

I am always asking what we are celebrating at Easter. As a child I looked forward to chocolate eggs from Peter Cottontail and other goodies. As I got older I was told it is a celebration of Jesus dying on the cross for us. I just could never get away from the rabbits and eggs, what did this have to do with our savior.  

  As I got older and went on my worldly secular way embracing "pop culture" and all the unimportant nonsense that comes with it, I never questioned the "rituals " I was taught as a child. I went with what I was taught, nobody would teach me wrong, right? Not purposely anyway. So I went on my blissful merry way........trusting what I had been taught. 

  Trusting what your taught can be deadly,  I was taught that islam was one of the Abrahamic religions. Islam is an evil suicidal death cult. Islam is an ideology. 9/11 got me to study the quran because I wanted to know where exactly these people got the idea that it was acceptable to murder in Gods name. which turned me back to the true word of God

  So after 9/11 I became interested in Scripture again, this time with an older more patient mind willing to do critical thinking. And critical I have been.

Jesus/Yahshua was nailed to a pole on Passover, Scripture tells us this. So what were we celebrating in 2008? 2008 is not the only time we see this. If easter is about our savior why the rabbit and the eggs.....

 Here is an interesting exert from Ken Powers book " A Future History" I am not saying this is gospel but it should get you to think and maybe even get down to some investigating.....

"All that being said, note that we’re well over halfway through the Revelation when we see one of the primary players for the very first time: “And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.” (Revelation 14:8) If we can figure out who or what Babylon is, we’ll be well on our way toward understanding what angers Yahweh in this present world. Useful information indeed.

The angel here was referring to scripture: “Babylon is fallen, is fallen! And all the carved images of her gods He has broken to the ground.” (Isaiah 21:9) When Isaiah penned these words, Babylon’s (i.e., the city’s) glory days were still a hundred and fifty years in the future. But by the time John’s angel repeated the refrain, Babylon as a political entity had been dead for half a millennium. So it’s clear that neither messenger was talking about temporal military or political power. Rather, both passages speak of God’s judgment upon idolatry. Fornication or adultery, as we saw in Hosea’s prophecy, is invariably a picture of false worship—of giving to another “god” what rightfully belongs exclusively to Yahweh. Isaiah talks about the “carved images of her gods,” but idolatry goes beyond the worship of “graven images.” It is anything that takes the place of God in our lives.

I can’t speak for the whole world, but I know Americans pretty well. We worship some very strange things. Of course, there are the big three (power, sex, and money), but we obsess over pointless fluff as well. The toys. The career (or worse, the work itself). The car, the house, the lawn, for cryin’ out loud. Relationships, recreation, children, friends, health, political causes—even church. I have heard of fundamentalist Christians being accused of worshipping the Bible. Intrinsically, there’s nothing wrong with any of these things—not even power, sex, and money—but if these things obstruct or take the place of our personal relationship with Yahweh, they become wrong; they become our “carved images.” The good things in our lives are gifts from God—they’re not supposed to be mistaken for gods themselves.

Babylon, then, is a code word for idolatry. But it’s also a physical place (a few miles down the river from Baghdad), with a history that collided with that of God’s people on occasion. Some Bible expositors teach that it will rise again as a world power in the last days. And at first glance, a few passages like this one seem to support that view: “Then the angel who talked with me came out and said to me, ‘Lift your eyes now, and see what this is that goes forth.’ So I asked, ‘What is it?’ And he said, ‘It is a basket that is going forth.’ He also said, ‘This is their resemblance throughout the earth: here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket.’ Then he said, ‘This is Wickedness!’ And he thrust her down into the basket, and threw the lead cover over its mouth. Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were two women, coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven. So I said to the angel who talked with me, ‘Where are they carrying the basket?’ And he said to me, ‘To build a house for it in the land of Shinar [Babylon]; when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its base.’” (Zechariah 5:5-11) God is telling the prophet that he intends to “keep a lid on” the whore of Babylon until her “house” is ready. Is this a literal place, or only a metaphor for the form she will assume in the last days? Let’s look carefully at the record.

We first see the city in Genesis, shortly after the flood. “Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. Then they said to one another… ‘Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.’ But Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. And Yahweh said, ‘Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them. Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.’ So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city. Therefore its name is called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth; and from there Yahweh scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.” (Genesis 11:1-9)

A cursory reading of this passage might lead you to think that Yahweh was a petty and vindictive God, afraid that people would get so smart they would accomplish great things. So in a jealous fit, He used his magical powers to squash their dreams like a bug, changing their language comprehension so they couldn’t communicate with each other. That picture couldn’t be farther from the truth. What actually happened was that Noah’s great grandson Nimrod, along with his wife, Semiramis, began a secret cult that deified its founders. It came to be called a “mystery religion” because its hidden doctrines were revealed little by little to its followers—the really nasty stuff remaining a secret until the devotee was too compromised to back out. Yahweh chose to divide the populace to slow this insidious false doctrine’s spread among men.

Though the details have been muddled by time and a plethora of conflicting traditions, the religion seems to have been based upon the aggressive personality of Nimrod and the insatiable ambition of Semiramis. Nimrod was known as “a mighty hunter before the Lord,” that is, a warrior, a conqueror, a despot—the first of his breed (after the flood, at least). His ruthlessness led to his being worshiped as a demi-god during his lifetime.

Semiramis may have been born of humble stock, but her beauty elevated her to the position of Nimrod’s queen. Being the wife of a demi-god had its perks, as you might imagine. But Nimrod died unexpectedly. Faced with seeing her position of power evaporate for want of a male sitting on the throne beside her, Semiramis became pregnant—long after Nimrod’s untimely demise (oops)—and bore a son, Tammuz, at the winter solstice. The boy, of course, was claimed to have been miraculously conceived, and he was marketed as the fulfillment of the Messiah prophecy of Genesis 3:15—the seed of the woman who would crush the head of Satan. Semiramis was positioned as the holy (if not quite virgin) mother, the queen of heaven, having been impregnated by her now-fully-deified late husband. This made Semiramis the prototype for the goddess of fertility. Because he was born near the winter solstice, on December 24th or 25th, Tammuz was worshiped as the Sun God, the conqueror of winter’s darkness, celebrated by the burning of the “log of the son,” or “yule” as it’s called in the Chaldean tongue.

Alas, no good scam lasts forever. According to the legend, Tammuz was killed in his fortieth year by a wild boar. (By some accounts, it was Nimrod who was boared to death, but the legend stuck to Tammuz, who was supposedly the reincarnated Nimrod. Other accounts state that Nimrod was slain by Shem (Noah’s son) for his idolatry and cut in pieces as a warning.) Satan needed a rebirth or resurrection miracle if he hoped to pass his boy off as the Messiah (remember, the Genesis 3 prophecy had said the serpent would only “bruise his heel”), so Tammuz was said to have been brought back to life as a miraculous egg that descended from heaven into the Euphrates River, from which hatched a rabbit. Tammuz’ birth was celebrated every December 25th by hanging silver and gold-covered balls upon an evergreen tree. The phallic inference was lost on no one. It was a fertility cult, after all.

Every spring, the faithful would feign sorrow, “weeping for Tammuz,” for forty days (cf. Ezekiel 8:14), one day for every year of his life. At the end of the mourning period, though, there was a day of great rejoicing for the reincarnated “son of god.” That day they would ritually slay and eat the boar that had killed Tammuz. There was also a ritual in which the high priest of Babylon would impregnate a lucky “volunteer,” whose child could be expected to be born the following winter. Here’s where the thing got really demonic. The highlight of this annual spring festival of Semiramis (who was also known as Astarte by the Assyrians, Inanna by the Sumerians, Asthoreth by the Caananites, and Ishtar by the Akkadians) was when the priest would ritually kill the three-month-old baby who had been conceived during the previous year’s celebration, dyeing Ishtar eggs red in the innocent child’s blood.

I don’t know how to break it to you, but your “Christian” holiday traditions are a lie, right out of the pit of hell. It was not Yahshua who was born on the 25th of December; it was Tammuz and every subsequent permutation of the “sun god.” Evergreen trees hung with festive balls, holiday candles, mistletoe, yule logs—even the Christmas goose—all have pagan origins, and they’re all an abomination to Yahweh. (All of the historical evidence points to a birthday for Yahshua at the Feast of Tabernacles, in the autumn of 2 B.C.) And Easter? Forty-day Lenten fasts preceding the big day (and lascivious carnivals preceding Lent), colored eggs, and the traditional Easter ham were all instituted to honor not Christ, but Satan’s false redeemer, Tammuz. It’s no wonder Yahweh declared swine’s flesh unclean in the Torah.

All of this was Satan’s counterfeit of Yahweh’s plan for the redemption of mankind. The center of worship for Nimrod’s mystery religion was Babel, or Babylon, one of four cities he founded on the plain of Shinar, in the Euphrates river valley. Yahweh, of course, could have wiped out Nimrod’s little scheme on day one. But as we have seen time and again, God is (if you’ll pardon the expression) pro-choice. He won’t force anyone to love him, but rather lets us choose, for good or ill, and then usually gives us time to repent of our bad choices. That’s exactly what He did here. The earth’s languages were divided in the days of Peleg, who was six generations removed from Noah—two generations past the time of Nimrod (though on a different branch of the family tree). And why did Yahweh choose to split up the families of the world like this? It was primarily to separate—to keep holy—the people through whom He would someday provide the Messiah. We see this pattern of separation and isolation recurring in scripture, first here, then with Abraham, then with Moses at the Exodus, then with Joshua at the time of the conquest of Canaan. And what were the Canaanites doing that was so horrible they had to be wiped out? They were following the mystery religion of Babylon!

The city of Babylon went through its ups and downs (as city-states are wont to do), finally to reach its glory days under Nebuchadnezzar II in the sixth century B.C. At the very height of its power, as the Chaldeans were carting Yahweh’s rebellious people off in chains, the prophet Jeremiah, “Mr. Diplomacy,” declared concerning his nation’s new masters, “‘They shall not take from you a stone for a corner nor a stone for a foundation, but you shall be desolate forever,’ says Yahweh.” He gave the quartermaster of the captive Jewish King Zedekiah a message to take with him to his new home in exile. “Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that would come upon Babylon, all these words that are written against Babylon. And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, ‘When you arrive in Babylon and see it, and read all these words, then you shall say, “O Yahweh, You have spoken against this place to cut it off, so that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but it shall be desolate forever.” Now it shall be, when you have finished reading this book, that you shall tie a stone to it and throw it out into the Euphrates. Then you shall say, “Thus Babylon shall sink and not rise from the catastrophe that I will bring upon her. And they shall be weary.”’” (Jeremiah 51:26, 60-64) “Desolate forever,” and “sink and not rise” sound to me like the city of Babylon is finished as a political entity. It will never rise from the sands of Iraq to be anything more than an archaeological dig, a tourist attraction. The spirit of Babylon however, the insidious fraud meant to replace Yahweh in the hearts of men, is a different story. That never left."

       

  Scary, scary, scary. Remember there is nothing wrong with a healthy dose of intolerance!

     

Time: The Only Commodity that Matters

So in this life we all take a unique journey. The path we take is based on our own free will, and of course the amount of free time we actually have. Jobs and careers don't typically free us, much like religion they bind us. The rules were meant to be broken argument fades when you realize most rules are just over ellaborations of our moral code, in other words, stupid rules will always be broken, the core rules should never be broken....love, trust, dignity, respect.....but there are always going to be people who don't get it and never will, evil people. The only thing we have to work with is the time we have been given, nothing else. Reach out and do the best you can with the time you have......

LOVE

If you understand this.....there is still hope for you...

1 Corinthians 13

13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.
13:3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing.
13:4 Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
13:5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
13:8 Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
13:10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Human Nature

 So in 1999 the Fairfield teachers Union went on strike because they said the contract was unacceptable . They were upset with the small pay increase and a clause in the contract that allowed them to be accused of whatever yet never be able to face their accuser . When the local media asked the teachers and the union reps they made it very clear this was not about the money it was about the "accuser clause". The strike went on and the school district finally gave in on the clause and removed it from the contract. That is when the teachers and their union made it clear what the strike was really about, it was the money, they wanted more money, they didnt give a crap about the clause, it was about the money. So when someone says its not about the money, it is about the money.

Facebook intrigue

So now I am going to crack on Facebook for how people use it. Recently I saw it used as a form of "alibi". It was very entertaining to say the least. The person had used old photos of an "event" and mixed them with photos they knew were "current" in order to pull off their sham. The only way anyone would have known is that on the the day the "supposed photos" were taken there was a very big fire to the south ( which is the direction of the photos)sending up plumes of smoke to the south of the location, what the photos showed was the standard bay area fog( which means it was probably a morning photo) and no plumes of smoke. Facebook is like any other social situation, liars lie, cheaters cheat, bullshitters bullshit, and chumps fall for all the nonsense. I keep my account open just in case one of my old friends actually entertains the thought that I may be on there, most of my older friends knowing how I am probably would be shocked to find me on that social network, but WTF, I will drop out when I need to. You can also see that people spend an inordinate amount of time trying to get people to see them in a certain fashion, so to me it appears  they spend a lot of time on the internet trying to find clever quips that back their views. Hello people you have a mind of your own voice whats on YOUR mind not some tripe some dumb ass has regurgitated for you. I have one friend who actually uses Facebook to express herself, all the rest spend time rehashing lawn fertilizer. I imagine some people use Facebook properly, I have friends in West Virginia who use it regularly and they use it about as properly as you could imagine, mostly family, hunting, fishing, veteran, military updates. In  California, shockingly, everything is shallow: shopping, internet tripe, fashion, status. Facebook may as well be Ashly Madison in California the way messaging is used, too funny. Thats enough time dedicated to a social network that many people use including myself, just a personal observation.

 So in honor of our Heavenly Father and in memory of my brother in law Destry Gegg who passed away late Monday night August 19th 2013, I am posting on my blog (gentilesven.blogspot.com) something I posted about back in 2007, Gods name is a blessing!! 

   I ask  “Do you know Gods’ name?”. The typical response is Uhhhhh or God Almighty or Lord Almighty or Lord God Almighty, some people who actually have read their copy of Scripture or bits and pieces of it might say “ I AM” and in translating the the verb( Gods name is actually a verb!)  they would be correct, but that is not His name. Some say Jehova. I say that can’t be for their is no “J” in Ancient Hebrew, which means we have to address the name of the Messiah and Savior Jesus as well, in a moment. No “J” no Jesus, No “J” no Jehova.

    In Ancient Hebrew there were no written nouns only place holders that let you know that phonetically there was a noun there. Gods name written in ancient Hebrew is YHWH  so with the placeholders changed to nouns scholars are secure in pronouncing his name YAHWEY. As I said his name is a verb, and in most copies of scripture they translate it “ I AM”, but more fully and correctly translated it is “ I HAVE BEEN, I AM AND I WILL ALWAYS BE”. Interesting since every name I know is a noun. Appropriate however for the creator of the universe. 

    Now what about Jesus, well his real name is...pardon my spelling Yahshua/Yeshua. Yeshua is what most scholars will tell you is the correct spelling. Yahshua/Yeshua means “Yahweh saves”. Appropriate for a creator who loves his creation and wants us to overcome death by visiting us in the flesh as Yeshua. Our Father got a first hand view of our plight, he knows and understands, he empathizes and sympathizes, he compassionate, he loves us. His love for us is true and does NOT bind, he has given us the freedom to do and choose as we please.  

    Before I get too far from the names of the Father let me  address the “Holy Spirit”. The correct translation from the Dead Sea Scrolls is “SET APART SPIRIT” ( Ruach Kodesh) The translation is not really the problem although I have a problem with the word “holy” at a personal level. My problem is with the fact that the word RUACH in its use is feminine, is it possible that the one who dresses us in the garments of white/light has a feminine nature much like a mother? I have no answer for this. We aren’t supposed to know everything?! 

  The adversary, another name to learn, his name is Lucifer, he is the Ha Satan, Ha Satan means the accuser, the adversary. I’ll bet Hollywood had you thinking satan was actually his name, bad bad society. Satan is really just a title, just like lord or god. How do we reconcile reading Scripture and coming across the phrase “My name is Lord God Almighty”, those aren’t names at all, they are all titles. Every church you go to, the pastor/preacher/father/holy dude will use that very phrase and more just like it, excusing it because it is in the written Bible. Its tradition. Tradition is the problem. Look a bad translation can be very significant in understanding what the author really intends to get across,  the story gets messed up. Add some cowardice or ill will, like the holy men and women who do not teach the truth even though they know it. Now you don’t have a messed up story, now you have a deadly toxic brew. I say deadly toxic because this is not some novel  Stephen King penned( no disrespect intended), there is life and death at stake. 

   If you have not read The Old and New Covenant from Genesis to Revelation I recommend you do. If you don’t understand it the first time, do it again and keep doing it until you do. If you run into something you don’t understand find someone who does understand scripture, which you probably should do anyway, there are still people who know and teach the truth! If you can’t find someone who understands it, find a friend and research it together. You will be very surprised at what you thought was in there and what really is. You will be surprised at all you have been taught by those good folks at the church. Todays clergy likes to teach a “topical Christianity”, in other words take certain writings from scripture and apply them to a so called modern teachable topic. I am sure that might be ok on an occasion, but that is not how scripture should be taught regularly. Expository teaching is the correct way, starting at the beginning and working your way to the end, in depth.

  I realize I seem a bit harsh when I write about the spiritual leaders of the Judeo-Christian community, again life and death are at stake here, no reason to pull punches. See what I write about islam and you’ll see harsh, and deservedly so. 

  Here are some questions for your “teachers”  and again I am being harsh because you and your loved ones souls are at stake here.You want real teachers. My hope is they are really teachers and are able to show you the way. You will know by how they answer your questions, if they answer them at all ! 

  Q1.If you know the Fathers name and the Saviors real name why don’t you teach using them? 

My answer;

I honestly can’t help here, I have no idea why someone would withhold an important truth such as His name, in the Old Covenant he states My name is Yahweh, my name is a blessing. His name is used 7000 times in scripture Why withhold a blessing from the heavenly Father to his flock when you supposedly represent Him. Open the introduction to your bible there is always some acknowledgement to the fact that they have changed Gods name as it has become tradition, a tradition they have chosen to continue along with the clergy. Slavery is a tradition and it continues to this very day. The people that withhold the truth enslave the gullible with lies, and then the gullible are swallowed by death. 

Good luck with their answer!

  Q2.His name is changed  7000 times in scripture to Lord, God and Lord God Almighty, Why?  

My answer;

Initially it is believed to have been changed by the Masoretic Jewish scribes in order to keep the name Yahweh from the Jewish peoples enemies, makes sense. Still it wasn’t right. Jesus name is even more difficult to reconcile, I realize that translating languages is difficult and much can and is lost in the translation, often. I am bilingual( German and English) and also took Latin for 4 years so I am familiar first hand. I just can’t see how you get from Yeshua to Jesus just phonetically alone? I guess it takes time. I mean you are really changing someones name. That is the equivalent of changing Sven to Bob. If you follow the etymology(study of language translation) you can kind of see what happened, but to me it is still inexplicable because you still have to pronounce the name and Yahshua does not sound like Jesus. In the first two editions of the King James Bible the name was spelled Iesus (Yay-sus) which shows that there was some phonetic part of His name left in memory, but that changed with following editions going with Jesus, very traditional.

Q3 Before I present this question I always have to explain that I am NOT a seventh day adventist, Jehovas witness, Mormon etc. I am a non denominational believer!

   Where in the Old or New Covenant does Yahweh or Yeshua change the  Sabbath from Saturday( the 7th day) to Sunday( the 1st day)? 

My answer;

 Nowhere. There are those who like to argue about what Paul did and said and when he did and said it, using normal gatherings where prayers were held and monies collected as some precedent. Paul was Jewish, he worshipped on Saturdays, he writes he kept the Sabbath. This is my personal answer, show me, in Scripture. Unless Yahweh or Yeshua instruct us to through scripture who cares what Paul said or did ( No disrespect towards Paul, he is a great example of a Believer, ). Look at it like this, your supervisor(Paul) says take the rest of the day off so as your walking to the time clock the plant manager(Yeshua) sees you and says he needs you to fix a pump, who do you listen to? Do you want to keep your job? Life or death? I am not saying we are under the Law, I am just saying the Law has never changed. Some people like to argue the Law was nailed to the pole, but it was the Word that was nailed to the pole. The Savior says so himself in the New Covenant, he came to affirm the Law not deny it. So even if someone would like to extrapolate on Pauls’ writings until the cows come home it won’t change the facts as written. Pauls writings should probably have not been included in Scripture, his letters were intended for specific groups of people or individuals and his writing can be a very confusing read, my opinion.

  Q4   How about some of the Commandments, lets ask about some of them;

   Thou shalt not kill. 

My answer;

Think about it for a second, do you think someone who loves you would leave you unarmed to wolves? No. The true translation to this commandment is clear, Thou shalt not MURDER. The Father knows there may come a time where you have to kill for food or even to defend your life, he is not going to allow you to die. The politically correct crowd loves to abuse this commandment.

  Thou shalt not commit adultery

 My answer;

 Yes cheating on your spouse is bad. It exposes a flawed relationship or someone with poor character or drug and alcohol abuse or any number of other human foibles. Back in the days of small agricultural communities where everyone depended on one another an adulterous affair could have devastating consequences on the community, even destroying the community. 

  The Commandment has more to do with cheating on Yahweh then cheating on your spouse. Cheating on the Father means joining any one of hundreds or even thousands of “Mystery Religions”. Mystery religions entice people in with promises of good and love and peace and before the victim knows it they are part of a religion, often a religion with the blood of innocent people on its’ hands by design. Many religions you cannot back out of under penalty of death, just like the Mafia! Religions that distract you from the relationship you should be having.

The mystery religions were started by Semi-Ramis the wife of Nimrod, the first great ruler after the Great Flood in the Old Covenant. Remember the Tower of Babel? People always think the Father was cruel or jealous or petty when he forced upon the people different languages. It had nothing to do with being petty and everything to do with preventing the fast spreading mystery religion, which was destroying souls as fast then as it does now. See Mithraism, islam.  

  An easy way to distinguish the Fathers desire for relationship and a mystery religion is that nowhere in the Scriptures does the Father teach that murder and violence are virtues. Nowhere is lying taught to be acceptable. Nowhere in the True Scriptures from our Heavenly Father are we taught to indiscriminately murder, yes in some of the Books of Moses and Joshua( Yeshua) the Jewish people are told to totally wipe out complete populations. On the surface this may seem cruel, from a military stand point it may seem practical in preparing an army for the brutality of war. The truth, if you read closely, is that the people living in Canaan were “walking their children into the fire” for molech ( see allah, baal, beelzebub, satan,etc.) which is just another way of saying they practiced human blood sacrifice. They sacrificed their children to an evil entity. It still goes on there today, when they strap bombs to their children and then hand out candy after the child has been obliterated killing innocent people. It would be interesting to see if any clergy have the courage to address that topic!

    Mystery religions try to counterfeit the relationship Yahweh wants to have with you. Apparently evil may not be a genius but it is clever enough to attempt to copy or imitate. It is clever enough to know our weaknesses and exploit them. Think about this, back in the times of the Prophets and the Apostles and then right up to about 300CE people that taught the Word had day jobs, religion is just a gig. Just like politics.

   This is where money gig begins, it begins with the word Church. Church is translated from the Greek word Eklessia. Eklessia  doesn’t mean some million dollar religious complex or religion, it means “called out gathering”, in other words all the people called out by our Savior ”Yahshua” to follow him, he calls everyone! By name! If you are not in by birthright you are in by being “called out”, you are grafted on!. You don’t have to walk into some special building to love our Father and Savior or to be blessed by him!

  

 Thou shalt not use the name of Yahweh in vain....

My answer;

Everyone seems to think this is about the phrase “God Damn it” or some other foul use of of his name or likeness in verbal expression. Yes it shows disrespect, poor taste, it shows an inability to express ones self clearly, it sounds stupid etc. Its not about poor language skills. This Commandment should have every clergyman and clergywoman shaking in their robes. The Commandment has everything to do with misleading his people to their death. If you are not teaching the truth or you are teaching for profit or status or just to “keep your gig”, or even worse, purposely teaching lies for profit, don’t worry about death, your place is a place of “ eternal anguish and gnashing of teeth”. 

     I believe there are a fair number of clergy who really probably do not know the things I just wrote about. But I am very sure there are a large number of these so called shepherds of the community who know they are withholding the truth and are purposely doing so for; Status, Tradition, Position, Prestige, Money, Tow the Company Line( Whos’ company?).......fill in the blanks. What I am saying is even if they don’t want to “rock the boat” by teaching the truth openly from the pulpit of the church, if there was even an ounce of courage and good in them they would visit their congregation at their homes and point them in the right direction in private, but they don’t. So are they really doing Gods work?? Or are they doing the adversaries work?? 

  

Remember the Sabbath day and keep it set apart

My answer; 

I have already addressed this above with a question. So let me expand a little.

I would like all reading to know that Emperor Constantine had a heavy hand in changing the Sabbath and “Christianity” between 300- 325 CE. His desire seems to have been to separate the “called out assembly”( Christianity) from its Jewish roots, for whatever reason. To worship on Saturdays was a death sentence in the empire. If you do your research you will see that Constantine was no real friend to the true called out assembly, he blended “Christianity” and “Mithraism” into the religion of the Empire. He called it Christianity, but then Jim Jones called it Kool Aid. Both did more bad for believers than good. Lets look at one of the great Christian symbols, the cross. I don’t believe it has anything to do with Christianity.

   I believe the cross came about two ways, first artistic license with the “ IN RI” sign placed above the Saviors head , look at all of the old paintings of the crucifixion, the artist extended the pole to accommodate the sign when in fact the sign was put above the saviors head in some fashion, who knows how, but we can be sure that the Roman soldier who posted it above Yeshua did not magically extend the main pole.

            Second, the cross is a symbol from Constantine as well, he saw a cross in the sky prior to a victory on the battlefield at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, some say it was a dream the night before the battle, on the cross was written “In Hoc Signo Vinces”( with this sign you will conquer). So Constantine was under the impression he had been given divine providence when in fact he was hearing from the Evil one. 

     If you look at the word used in Old Greek Scripture “stauros”, this word actually means pole, not cross. I believe the Greek “Stauros “(Upright pole) was replaced by the Roman “Crux”(Cross) under direction of Constantine. 

  If you do a brief study about crucifixion you will see that no crucifixion ever involved a cross. Crucifixion has a pole in the ground and a post that hold the victims arms that is fit across the top of the pole in the ground, so the weapon of execution looks more like a T than a cross. 

  

 SOME MORE INTERESTING TID BITS

  

According to scripture we are all Abrahams children, both Jew and Gentile, Abraham was both Gentile and then Jewish and our Father made a Covenant with Abraham. So then there are really three covenants, the Abrahamic Covenant, the Mosaic Covenant and the New Covenant. The Mosaic Covenant is the Old Covenant, Mosaic refers to the Mosaic laws or the laws of Moses.

 Remember, Yahshua said that the commandments could be combined down to two when asked which commandment was the most important. Love thy Heavenly Father with all your might and soul and Love thy neighbor as you would yourself. The first five Commandments actually combine down to Love thy Heavenly Father, Commandments 6-10 combine down to Love thy Neighbor. If you take a look at the Commandments and read them it is obvious that our Savior knew what he was talking about.

Check out Genesis 1:26 and Genesis 2:7

1:26 And Elohim said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

2:7 And Elohim formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.  

 Two creations? Interesting. Not sure about this one. Anyone have an answer?

 Here is one I hear “Christians” say often: You don’t need to read the Old Covenant only the new Covenant is pertinent”. Nothing could be further from the truth. One affirms the other, that is just how it is. That is why I suggest reading from Genesis to Revelation. Over and over until you get it. Anyone teaching that only the New Covenant is relevant is not coming from an educated foundation. They are misleading because they were probably misled themselves. It all matters, read it all.
