It is very annoying and disturbing to hear so many Preachers who love to dabble in Biblical Prophecy / eschatology but going about it erroneously and many even dare to say that it is only based on speculation!!! Are we playing the stock market here??? The layman depends on their pastor or evangelist to keep them informed. But when you begin to teach based on speculation instead of what you actually know to be true, you are treading on dangerous grounds and may result having your candlestick being taken away. I am referring to the preachers of mainstream Christianity. Do not say that I did not warn you in advance.

Luke 11:33

"No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light."

Revelation 2:5

"Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent."

Matthew 7:21

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."

Matthew 7:22

"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?"

Matthew 7:23

"And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

The above few verses are among the scariest Bible verses that I have encountered, other than the story from 1st Kings Chapter 13, where the "man of God" was killed by a lion for disobeying God's instructions.

And yet, it will be so for many people or religious people that they will one day would have to come to terms with reality when their presumed favour with God is revealed in public before the Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ to be nothing less than falsehood or corrupt works of the flesh.

Even as King Nebuchadnezzar's Kingdom was taken away from Him in an instant. No person on earth is safe in dwelling with continued defiance against what is godliness and secretly subscribing to corruption and debauchery while having a outward appearance of a religious person; from the person at the highest post of President or King of any given country to the person of the lowest estate with nothing at stake.

For example, the Lord may call upon the Leaders of each country to do what is right, to uphold justice and to love mercy, but if any Leader that refuse to reform and give up old fallacies may be promptly removed from their position.

Matthew 20:16

"So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen."

Let us continually learn of the Lord and do not be dismayed when being reprimanded or corrected for it will make us wiser and more open-hearted.

Do not be like the scorner who hates reprove and prefer to continually choose contempt and evil deeds; for his end will be destruction and full measure of the law.

Proverbs 9:6

"Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding."

Proverbs 9:7

"He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot."

[ World English Bible

9:7 He who corrects a mocker invites insult. He who reproves a wicked man invites abuse. ]

 

Proverbs 9:8

"Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee."

Proverbs 9:9

"Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning."

Proverbs 9:10

"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."

Song of Solomon 8:7

"Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned."

Sad to say that there are many Churches today that is still very much money based or money minded. Unconditional love is something that money cannot buy. Unfortunately today, there are still many husbands and wives that deal with each other in terms of dollars and cents.

Somebody once asked me to speak to the young people at a Church in Singapore because the older generation sees that today’s youth as having loose morals.

I have not attended Church service for years because of monetary problems. So I was straight forward and quite bluntly said that I have no money for transport to Church on Sundays, perhaps somebody at the Church can arrange for a van to send me to Church? I gather that it must be the word “no money” that tends to make people tremble and disappear for I never saw that person again.

Am I that despicable because I am poor? Is it true then, when my boss told me that it is my penalty for being poor? Do I deserve nothing but despise and contempt; when people hear that I have no money, they refuse to speak to me face to face when I seek for advise or some help.

Isaiah 53:3

"He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not."

Do I only deserve to be chopped up into tiny pieces and fed to the loan sharks? Even the bank has become a legal loan shark - AM Bank/Arab Malaysian Finance, used to charge around 60% interest on my housing loan.

i.e. I pay RM1000 every month on my housing loan where about RM600 was the bank interest and RM400 goes to set off on my housing loan principal amount. What happened for the past two years until today, the bank interest has become RM990 and only RM10 goes to set off on my housing loan amount !!!

How can this be possible? RM150,000 divide by RM10 per month = 1,250 years to finish repaying my housing loan !!!

I took a 35 years loan, I don’t remember signing for a one thousand two hundred and fifty years loan.

Do I have to thank AM Bank for not throwing me out of my house?

***************************************

When I was in school, I always wanted to be an evangelist or a preacher, but I guess the Lord knew me all too well, and He is right; today, I do not think that I have the nerve to handle a crowd of 5000 like Jesus of Nazareth did 2000 years ago. I have become sort of a cave hiding hermit and I thank God for creating the internet. His tailor made yoke for me is really light and easy actually, as I just have to write before the presence of the Lord and sent it out through the internet. I don’t have to grow a hard forehead of flint to withstand people’s abuses and hard words. I don’t have to see their antics and demonic faces.

Blessed be the Lord Most High for His bountiful mercy upon us.

I bless the day when I will have finally finished all my letters to Israel sometime next year. Yahoo!!! I can finally disappear again for good this time. Thank you Malaysia for setting the embargo and not allowing me to visit Israel because I guess the coast is not clear yet and there may be still danger lurking. Anyway, I am only allowed to pay a short visit to Israel after Jesus of Nazareth returns to govern the world through Israel. I hope Jesus can beam me there like He did the Apostle Philip who apparently can appear and disappear whenever he wishes.

Many pastors and evangelists today sound more like used car salesman or cattle auctioneer than sober men of God. There are those that even jump around like circus performers and there are even those that are somewhat violent charismatic healers that push and punch while attempting to heal their congregation???

Matthew 7:22-23

I do not wish to deal directly with the very long list of cults and deviant denominations where there are so many groups with their leaders on various claims to be Jesus Christ or someone or something UFO & etc – just a few examples,

 In Korea - Sun Myung Moon (Unification Church - Moonies);

 Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda, a Puerto Rican preacher;

 Apollo Carreon Quiboloy, Philippines - Restorationist Christian church - Kingdom of Jesus Christ, The Name Above Every Name, Inc.;

 

 Muhammad – Islam.

 Joseph Smith Jr. - Mormons – The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints;

Both Joseph Smith Jr and Prophet Muhammad are quite uniquely similar in claims to have been given a new book other than the Bible - Torah (5 books of Moses) and letters from Jewish Prophets; both have met angels of light claiming to be sent from God in that they are quite different from other cults that mostly got their revelation through spirits speaking to them as in the “speaking in-tongues Pentecostal type”.

With regards to messages from the Angel Gabriel, if you compare the messages in the Bible and the Quran differs; as an Angel of The Lord, Gabriel is not allow to issue contradicting and conflicting messages. For example, in the Bible, Gabriel declares that Jesus shall be called the Son of God, but in the Quran, Jesus is not the Son of God.

If one were to listen to their life stories, both Joseph Smith Jr and Muhammad no doubt are sincere persons seeking the truth about God; I do not doubt their personal sincerity and earnestness but in the end, it is about whether their message was from The Lord God of Israel who created the Heavens and the Earth.

The Lord Most High chose Israel with specific purposes and that includes ONLY through Israel, the Law of the Lord flows out and through Israel the world is saved. Jesus Himself said that Salvation is of the Jews. Although there are minor false teachers in Israel which can be weeded out, the MAIN purpose is that Israel was and is chosen and SET APART to serve the Lord and to be a light to the Gentiles so that people from OTHER nations and tongues (Gentiles) who sought to bring in new laws and books from their own source can be clearly and immediately verified as FALSE and not sent by the Lord Most High.

The Lord did NOT make a covenant of service with Ishmael or the Americans or any other nation for that matter.

2 Timothy 3:5

"Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."

 

Jeremiah 14:14

"Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart."

Lamentations 2:14

"Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment."

Matthew 7:15

"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."

Matthew 24:11

"And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many."

 

Matthew 24:24

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."

 

2 Peter 2:1

"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction."

1st John 2:19

"They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us."

 

1st John 2:18

"Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time."

Will the Jewish teachers please cane those Evangelical & Eschatological preachers’ backside for preaching the defiling of the Third Temple of Ezekiel by the Antichrist. [Antichrist also known as False Christs, False prophets - Matthew 24:24, 1st John 2:19]. Where is the logic especially when the events of the rebuilding were being foretold in the Bible.

It’s like a person who is going to build a nice big house for himself and his family and before it is even built, all his friends and relatives keep telling him that his house is going to be desecrated and it will be haunted and so terribly defiled that it must be demolished not long after it is being built. It is very clear that they are trying to prevent or discourage the man from having a new house.

Jesus never said that He will come personally to oversee the construction of the Third Temple HIMSELF, it is the job assigned to the office of “Zerubbabel” through the guidance of the Holy Spirit of the LORD. The LORD MOST HIGH will only return upon the completion of His Temple.

Malachi 3:1 “….… and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, ……..”

Psalms 90:4
"For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night."

2 Peter 3:8
"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day."



Hosea 6:1
"Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up."

Hosea 6:2
"After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight."



John 2:19

"Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

John 2:21

"But he spake of the temple of his body."

1 John 4:1

"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."

The Biblical ANTICHRIST is in the BODY of CHRIST (Hosea 6:2) where the Spirit dwells; and who represents the Body of Christ? The Christian and Jewish Church represent the Body of Christ.

There is no need to suggest any of those religions and peoples outside of the Jewish and Christian Church because they are not part of the Body of Christ in the first place.

Many people like to speculate someone in the Islamic religion as the Antichrist. Ask yourself this, have you ever considered Muslims as part of the Body of Christ? Your answer would be a clear NO.

So what will happen to those religions and peoples outside of Christianity and Judaism? The answer would be that the LORD will liberate and reform them through the Teachers of Israel also known as the Servant of the Lord and especially after the Temple is being rebuilt and the LORD Most High will return and teach us all PERSONNALLY.

We will explore more on the descriptions of the Antichrists in another letter.

Until then, keep in mind 2 things: -
1)   That the antichrists are not all powerful or omnipotent; their time is limited. 
2)   All the events in the Bible and book of Revelation do not apply to just one period but throughout the past 2000 years; some events that happen will not occur again but there are certain events that will be brought about again in this generation. 

************************

Know and understand that many punishments and rewards are for this life that you are living now ! (Daniel 12:10) and not only for the next life in Heaven.
Some people when they are chastised, they repent and receive their reward now and also shall escape second death and go to Heaven when they physically die. 
Sadly there are many who refuse to give up evil deeds and their punishment is in this life as well as in the next. 

In the ONE counterfeit BODY OF CHRIST, there are many types of abominations.   
Just as in The One Body of Christ, there are many members. Each of us have our own tasks and purposes in life and position at work whether be manual work or spiritual work with the LORD Most High.
Romans 12:5
"So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another."



There are some abominations more grave than another. 

For example, in Proverbs 6:14 "He that soweth discord" is an abomination to the LORD. 
There are many newscasters, journalists and even Pastors and evangelists love to add oil onto fire, to fan the fire of doubts and hatred and most stupidly create alarming scenarios based on false reports or messages and fictional novel/books given by false teachers and false prophets. BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. 

For example:-

1) Especially in the USA there are people who love to keep on bad mouthing their current President.  
2) Newscasters and false prophets love to do research on the facade of world events and give speculative imaginary report on anything and especially about IRAN's President and also on the imaginary 12th Imam as the Antichrist.  Have they actually SEEN the 12th Imam Mahdi?  They would tell you that they have heard so and so speak about it but no one has actually seen the person.  They can point fingers at so many candidates based on speculation.  Here we go again, "SPECULATION".
What has the world of journalism come to? Has anyone EVER taught you that you cannot use Fiction by treating it as Fact.  Do you think that the more times you mention about "the fiction" that it will "turn real" after reporting on it for ten thousand times?

3)  ....and there is the infamous world wide speculation on who is the Antichrist!!!  From Church leaders to fiction book writers, for centuries, many have been trying to guess who is he that son of perdition, that little horn, ..... etc....
The Bible is very direct at times. All his characteristics are mentioned and Our Body was mentioned as the Temple of God.  Just open your eyes and see what is right in front of you.  But many of you having eyes but cannot see the truth.  What a terrible tragedy.

4)   Worse speculation of all is the second coming of Jesus of Nazareth.  False teachers and false prophets have given date after date that did NOT COME TRUE and yet there are still so many that blindly follow these blind leaders.

One simple sentence has already been said; "Matthew 24:42 -  "Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come."
Malachi 3:1 “….… and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, ……..”

If you were specifically told that you will NOT know what hour your LORD will come, why do you still pretend that you know the hour?   False prophets and false teachers do not follow instructions from the BIBLE and by this we know that they are false.
The separation of the goats and the sheep has clearly begun.



Even the abominations of the Roman Catholic Eucharist can be stopped and forgiven if the Pope and his Church Leaders are willing to repent, reform and withdraw from their idolatrous practises.  


But there is this abomination that is worse than the Roman Catholic IDOLATRIES that cannot be forgiven as in Matthew 12:32 because many of its adherents will REFUSE TO REPENT and to GIVE IT UP because of their addiction to its power although a small number of the people chosen by the LORD will be saved from its delusions;
it comes to Body of Christ peacefully and with very much power that even the very elect are enthralled and mystified

- and as a counterfeit God calling ITSELF the "third person of the holy trinity" living / sitting in the "sanctuary" or "temple" of the Body of Christ - the believer's body/the human body,

- the "counterfeit trinity" gives audible instructions on many issues especially on Biblical prophecy,
(audible voice beside or inside your ear or in the throat or at certain parts of your brain - "the little horn")

- also attempt to control the believer's thoughts and actions by making them believe it is their own decision (this part is done without audible voices but by mind control).
 
- makes you believe that they are saying good things when they utter in unknown angelic utterances or "understanding dark sentences" Daniel 8:23,  they are actually cursing GOD and speaking against the HOLY SPIRIT.

When one Angel speak to another Angel in angelic language, WHAT IS IT TO YOU?
Angel of the LORD of HOSTS are not allowed to meddle in human affairs without authorisation. It does not benefit any human being to be able to speak in angelic language.  You already have so many different languages in this world for you to learn, why to you insist on wanting other unknown tongues?  When you ask for something which GOD has no intention on giving you, the meddlers aka evil spirits of fallen angels comes to you to let you speak in fallen angel's tongues.  Congratulations !!!  this is one jackpot which NO sane person would want to hit.
Ten times, it may tell or give to you the correct interpretation but mixed with 1 or 2 false interpretation is all it takes to destroy you.

Concise Oxford Dictionary
"perdition"
(in Christian theology) a state of eternal damnation into which a sinful and unpenitent person passes after death.
2nd Thessalonians 2:3
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;"

2nd Thessalonians 2:4
"Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God"




I have already somewhat explained this in my first letter "Thy Will be done in earth as it is in Heaven".  

1 John 4:1
"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."

To any non-speaking in tongues persons:-
Jewish Rabbi, godly Pastors/teachers and men of God and the non-speaking in tongues exorcist - if you are brave, test their spirits and see for yourself if I am speaking the truth. 
But let me warn you in advance for those that are brave enough to venture out to fight against these spirits speaking persons, it is going to be very messy if you do not stand firmly in your faith, you may be swayed at some point by their enchanting spirits.    

2nd Thessalonians 2:15
Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.


Go to a "speaking in tongues" Pastor and advice him nicely to consider renouncing his "gift of tongues" and try to pray over him to remove the counterfeit holy spirit aka unclean spirit.  
 
First thing he will do is defend his stance with a long list of Bible verses.  He will go at any lengths to defend "his gifts" first and foremost.
That is why anyone who attempts to approach a speaking in tongues Pastor or layperson, must pray fervantly to the LORD Most High for help and guidance and do thorough research before approaching them.    
 
Debating him will probably result in 1000 times "I am right" and "no you are wrong" being bantered to and fro.
 
One of their famous defence is some are real and some are not.  They said what my sister experienced was from the devil but the Pastor has the true holy spirit. It was the Pastor who laid his hands on my sister to invoke the holy spirit and the spirit went into her through his hands and the hands of many church "elders".  How do you explain that?  Let me tell you now that today - ALL are false.
 
Another of their defence is, how can we heal the sick and prophesy correctly if it is from the devil?  Well, fortune tellers too can prophesy correctly and many non-christian medicine man can heal the sick too.  Was it not said in the Bible that fallen angels disguise themselves as Angels of Light?  There are many people that actually are healed and some prophecies come true but which spirit did you get your powers from? 

They said God used them to prophesy in foreign nations language so as to inspire the non-believer.  As a result large groups of non-believers became Christians because of these wonders and signs as a church planting technique.   Well, you have found unsuspecting people to follow your system of belief ("his policy").  By such unsuspecting peace the "false holy trinity" shall and has destroyed many.   One of the Pentecostal / New Age Charismatic church policy is agressive growth in membership and conversion of unbelievers or believers into their system of craft, laying of hands to induct the spirit into the new believer.  Are not all these done in the guise of PEACE ??    What can be more peaceful than joining a church?  It's like buying a ticket to heaven to these people. 
Matthew 7:23
"And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
Daniel 8:25
"And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand ............. and by peace shall destroy many............."


 
If the "speaking in tongues" Pastor is met with STRONG RESISTANCE from another Biblically and Spiritually correct Pastor, if he is cornered with no way out, he will at some point in time reveal a very dark and "fierce countenance".  However, on normal days, his facial and overall disposition can be as good as an angel in heaven.        
That is why most probably in the end when they stand before Jesus, Jesus will never debate with them, He will only say to them, "I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY" 



2nd Thessalonians 2:7
"For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way."


2nd Thessalonians 2:8
"And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:"


2nd Thessalonians 2:9
"Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,"

2nd Thessalonians 2:10
"And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved."


2nd Thessalonians 2:11
"And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:"



The gift of tongues CAN be removed instantly if the faith of the exorcist is strong but once the exorcist leaves, the spirit will linger around the "speaking in tongues" Pastor to see if he will accept the spirit back and if he does, his end
may be 7 times worse or several times more powerful than before the exorcism.
 
That is why it is probably better for the speaking-in-tongues person to go through thorough and solid Biblical and Spiritually correct counseling and fully understands the truth and understand that he needs to RESIST the evil spirit from going back in after it comes out - before any actual attempt to exorcise the person takes place. 


 There are hundreds of millions of speaking in tongues church goers today.  For the last 100 years since speaking in tongues started, those church pastors and elders that do not believe in their system MOSTLY stayed away from them.

Today, I hope that there could be more true Christians who can give counseling to those speaking in-tongues laypersons or even Pastors themselves who are willing to listen and change their lives and come out of this Babylon Antichrist abomination so as to avert total destruction in your lives now and even unto the next life.
But Church people who are matured enough to counsel and take on the strong-stubborn-possessed-people in the Pentecostal world are few.  The Church today has just waken up and are still considered very young and still growing in Christ.  Pray for the Lord of the Harvest to increase His workers.

When the Third Temple in Jerusalem (according to the book of Ezekiel) is built and operational and the Israelite Sanhedrin are formally installed.  All false religions is this will slowly melt away.  Anyone who believes in Christ can go to Israel to seek formal help and guidance.

Daniel 8:23
"And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up"
- "latter time " means that only the last 100 or slightly more when the speaking in tongues movement first started.
-  "a king" - as they know Jesus is King and Trinitarians say that The Holy Spirit is one with GOD and is the spirit of Jesus.  And since the Holy Spirit is God, he is known to sit in our body as His Holy Temple Sanctuary declaring Himself as God.  The counterfeit spirit living in a speaking in tongues person's body is a counterfeit God and hence and anti-god, an ANTICHRIST.

 

Daniel 8:24

"And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people."

- a full practising speaking in tongues person have a wide range of powers from healing, foresight, to prophecy and physical strength BUT "not by his own power" - as he is fully dependant on the FALSE TRINITY "Spirit, "JESUS" and "Father" living in him, when he is exorcised, he will be just a normal person with no powers for the false spirit is like a leech, once taken away it is not part of us. 


*********************

BUT A TRUE CHOSEN MAN OF GOD, the Holy Spirit of the LORD comforts our soul and spirit, strengthens and empowers us - our mind, spirit and bodies; 
and permanently establish our position on earth as "sons of GOD" as HIS truth is in us which cannot be taken away. 
 
1 John 3:2
"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."

John 1:12
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"


**********************

Daniel 8:25

"And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand."

Matthew 12:32

"And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come."

Proverbs 6:12

"A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth."

Proverbs 6:13

"He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;"

Proverbs 6:14

"Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord."

Proverbs 6:15

"Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy."

Proverbs 6:16

"These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:"

In the book of Daniel, there are two events that are being described, with regards to Daniel Chapter 9 and 12

1) Jesus of Nazareth came to “SET UP” the domino effect timeline and events to destroy the CORRUPT Temple of Herod during His three and a half years of ministry culminating in His Death and Resurrection. (Daniel 12:11)

(Although all the duties and procedures of the Priests at the Temple of Herod was not corrupt but it was the people that governed the temple installed by the Roman Empire that was mostly all spiritually corrupt; for example, King Herod is not an Israelite, he was only a convert to Judaism)

Isaiah 45:7
"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."

The LORD created the angels and man before they fell and became evil.

The Lord is Righteous and that is why He must put away the wicked and all that are evil.

2 Samuel 12:11

"Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbor, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun."

Many times in this world and in the Bible we read that the LORD created evil in order to CHASTISE His own children / His own people and also to bring down Kingdoms and Dominions (refer to the Book of Daniel for the list of Beastly Kingdoms). 
The LORD create  OR allow one evil Kingdom to rise up in order to destroy another evil Kingdom but all evil Kingdoms and evil men have their time limit as they will be broken without hand when the LORD takes away their power and dominion at the appointed time.  

DESTROY (starting period) – After the death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth, subsequently the Temple of Herod destroyed by the Roman Empire.

“daily sacrifice taken away” - Daniel 12:11 – refers to the Temple of Herod’s daily sacrifices,

1st John 2:18 – “……..as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists;……….”;

Daniel 9:27 - “……………for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

John spoke of the many antichrists even from his time 2000 years ago until today, the overspreading of abominations of all the antichrists the Lord will make war against all HIS enemies to make them/it desolate and to bring them to an utter end.

Nahum 1:8-9, Proverbs 3:25.

and

2) Daniel 12:12 is the end of the destruction process and desolation of the wicked which lasted about 2000 years [ Luke 21:24 ] which also will be signified by a CLOSING period of 2 three and a half year periods (7 years) ministry by the Lord’s Two Witnesses (the offices of “Joshua” and “Zerubbabel” as in the book of Zechariah).
The 2nd three and a half years is completely dedicated to the building of the Temple itself according to the book of Ezekiel. Yes, with today’s modern technology, the whole Temple can be fully built and operational after three and a half years.

There is one event that you will NOT get to see, and that is the death of the Two Witnesses. If you believe that Jesus died for you; then there should be no problem for you to believe that HE also died on behalf of His Two Anointed Ones.

There are certain translations and old writings that showed Revelation 11:8-9 as in singular "body" instead of bodies. 
We will discuss more on why Revelation 11 points to the events in Jesus's three and a half years ministry including His death and resurrection in another letter.

Revelation 11:8
"And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified."

RESTORE (closing/ending period) –

Daniel 9:24 – “………to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness,……..”

Daniel 9:25 - “……...that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks ………” 
-  Daniel 9:25 and 9.26 refers to two Messiahs/Two Anointed aka two witnesses - one of the anointed is given a title "the prince" refers to the one chosen to hold the office of “Zerubbabel” - aka Benjamin Netanyahu.
Jesus of Nazareth was also given the title "Prince of Peace" but when Jesus returns in the clouds of glory to rule the world, HE RETURNS AS KING and His people Israel is His prince. 
One of the jobs of the LORD's two anointed ones is to identify and declare to the world the KING has return !!!  Although many people in Jerusalem shall see for themselves as witnesses of  His return to Jerusalem; because with so many people claiming to be Jesus, this will be done so that those people who are not in Jerusalem at the time of HIS return will get confirmation from HIS Two Anointed ones.

Daniel 9:26 - “And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined”
- first three and a half years of "Joshua's" ministry will end or cut off (well, not totally gone but since the "mantle of Elijah" will be passed on to Israel, there is not much need for "Joshua"/"Elijah" (office or post of Joshua and Elijah - multitasking.... ) to continue as Israel shall be as Elisha.  The Elders of Israel need only to ask of the LORD to give them strength tenfold or a hundredfold that of Elijah, and it shall be given them)  followed by another 3 and a half years of the rebuilding of Jerusalem and third Temple according to the book of Ezekiel.
- "city" refers to Jerusalem and "the sanctuary" refers to Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque (both have been referred to as the Noble Sanctuary)
- many parts of the old city Jerusalem are built in place since the Ottoman Empire, many roads, buildings, pipelines and drainage are too old and worn out. These need to be torn down, destroyed and rebuilt.   
- when the knowledge of the Lord covers the earth as the waters covers the sea, the war against evil people shall end (with the individual person, we fight evil with good and remembering that we are to do everything in accordance to the will of the Lord).   

Daniel 9:27 - “……..sacrifice and the oblation to cease……………” – refers to the idolatrous abomination of the Roman Catholic Eucharist’s Sacrifice and Oblation.

Example:-

“The Eucharist is a true sacrifice, not just a commemorative meal, as "Bible Christians" insist.”

Daniel 12:10

"Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand."

Daniel 12:11

"And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days."

Daniel 12:12

"Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days."

Proverbs 3:25

"Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh."

Luke 21:24

"And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled."

Daniel 9:24

"Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy."

 

Daniel 9:25

"Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times."

Daniel 9:26

"And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined."

Daniel 9:27

"And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate."

Nahum 1:8

"But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies."

 

Nahum 1:9

"What do ye imagine against the LORD? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time."

Matthew 24:39

"And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."

 

Psalms 29:10

"The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever."

Freedom to follow The Lord Most High or Are we merely Slaves of Christ Jesus?

* additional Bible verses added on 3rd June 2011


Jeremiah 2:14
"Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled?"


The Book of Ezekiel chapter 16 spoke of the parable of Israel, a child born and thrown into an open field with the naval cord still uncut and all covered in blood. How the Lord took the Child in and covered Her nakedness and gave her all the finest garments and fairest jewels. Yet she was not contented and played the harlot and committed adultery with strangers and committed many other sins. But the ending as in verse :60 the Lord said "Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant."

All human beings are basically born free in the eyes of God; however, when we are born into a social system in the days of our parents, which determine the degree of our freedom or born into slavery. Some of us fight our way out slavery. Some are born into a dfferent type of slavery; slavery to the falsehood of money and position, which are able to tie a person down just as firmly as indentured servitude. Either way and in any society, a person in this world is a slave to what he covets.


A servant covets freedom a life without a master. If that servant were to be granted freedom, he would most probably end up being a slave to something else; because he still needs to find work. The servant has not left the Babylon system, as such he will never be free. That is why we need The Lord to set us free. To be spiritually free and the wisdom to choose our path in the light of the Lord.

A spoiled rich man covets more riches and power and position. He may eventually end up sacrificing his own freedom and the people he loves if he does not know how to draw the line.


The Kingdom of Babylon is most coveted by the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth, its people; the people who subscribe to the Kingdom of Babylon and think that they have built this Kingdom and it is theirs for the keeping; and these are the people who give honour and power to themselves and NONE to the Lord who created them.


Daniel 4:30
"The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?"


Daniel 4:31
"While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee."


To destroy the Kingdom of Babylon is merely to detach yourselves from the rudiments of this world. When you stop subscribing to the falsehood and material world of Babylon, it will cease to exist. Babylon feeds on the human soul to expand its power. Come out of Babylon and start to live and walk the path of righteousness of the Lord is all it takes to bring the Kingdom of Babylon down.



Acts 22:28
"And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born."



Psalms 82:6
"I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High."


Throughout the Bible, we see narratives and parables about slaves/servants and their masters.
Not all servants are slaves; most are just contract workers. While some are freed slaves who chose to stay on to help their masters because of love and loyalty.

Why do people shun at the word "obedience" to God?
To Willingly follow the will of the Lord and to accomplish His work.
Is it so hard to follow?
As if it is a monumental impossible task that will demand great self sacrifice.
If you truly love the Lord your God thy creator, then the task to follow Him is easy and the sacrifice is nothing compared to a living a life without the Lord Most High.

As Children of God, the Lord said that "we are gods" as in Psalms 82:6.
What caused our godliness to disappear? and Our favour in the sight of the Lord to diminish.
Dare we go to courts and palaces (where gold are worthless and are used as flooring) of the Lord and reclaim our favour and love of the Most High?
Have we become beasts of the field scratching out a meal or two for survival?
In this beastly world, people kill over a small gold nugget.

Since we are "gods" what we do most definately have its repercussions. Adam and Eve chose to be disobedient, its repercussion its DEATH. Whatever we choose to do will either bring us further or closer to GOD.
Sin of course drives a wedge between our own happiness and godliness.

When you cross the road, we generally look around and to the left and right for on coming traffic before we cross the road because it could mean life or death for you, if you step infront of an on coming bus. Such ordinary day to day small efforts that we do to ensure survival, what more of major decisions that people with money and power make?

It is good to find strength to overcome a bad situation. It is also good to be able to find contentment in our lives as there will always be something higher to achieve, something more beautiful to admire, something more expensive to buy.

Life is not about the endless chase. If you already have a beautiful wife, do you go after the next person that comes along whom you think is more beautiful? Where does it stop? How many lives will get hurt?

Some people think that they can destroy this earth and move along to find another planet that can sustain life. What if you cannot find any other planet like earth? And at the edge of the universe is exactly what it is, the edge where everything stops - like in the movie The Thirteenth Floor. What would you do? Where would you go?

1st Timothy 6:5-11
:5 "Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."


:6 "But godliness with contentment is great gain."


:7 "For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out."


:8 "And having food and raiment let us be therewith content."


:9 "But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition."


:10 "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."


:11 "But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness."

 
Movie of the week - The Thirteenth Floor (1999)




This Book by Michael Card - "A Better Freedom" made me feel rather depressing. After reading this book I do not feel the "actual" & "better" freedom that we are suppose to experience. Instead I felt as if I was brought encircling the lives of slaves; I was at some point beginning to feel like a tired old vulture. It does however have very good point of refeerences and examples.


http://store.michaelcard.com/abetterfreedom.aspx

Detailed Description extracted from Michael Card's website:

When Michael Card first started attending an African American church, he was struck by how the congregation worshiped Jesus as "Master." He soon learned that during slavery, calling Jesus "Master" was a subtle way of saying that their earthly masters were not their true Master. This insight led Card on a journey of discovery, as he wondered, "What did it mean for African American slaves to acknowledge Jesus as Master? What did Paul, Peter, Jude and James mean when they acknowledged themselves as Christ's slaves? What would it mean for you and me to take upon ourselves the title 'slave of Christ'?" A Better Freedom explores the biblical imagery of slavery as a metaphor for Christian discipleship. Michael Card shows how the early church saw Greco-Roman slavery as a window into understanding Jesus both as the Savior who took on the form of a slave, but also the true Lord and Master who sets us free from our own slavery to sin. Come, let yourself be captured by the Master. And discover how you can be truly set free.



2 Peter 1:20
"Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation."

2 Peter 1:20 are For example, when the Bible mentions the "Son of Man" it does not only refer to Jesus Christ but it also refers to every true Prophet of God to Israel.
Jesus like every other Prophet of God from Moses to Ezekiel to Isaiah to John the Baptist, are CALLED as the Son of Man in terms of them giving up their own lives to minister after the Word of God and all Prophets of God gave their own life to follow the will and work of the Lord to the detail so that the message of the Lord gets across to His people and causing many people to be saved.

Matthew 20:28
"Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many."

Another example of 2 Peter 1:20 are Isaiah 52:14 & 15.
Many people popularly associate it with Jesus's crucifixion and you are not wrong. But do you know that it is also associated with the Jewish Holocaust. Whose visage was so marred more than any man, than the skeletal form of a Jewish prisoner during World War 2.
Many nations and kings shut their mouths at him and many of them could hardly believe what they saw. Do you see it now?

Isaiah 52:14
"As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:"

Isaiah 52:15
"So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider."



There are many religious people of who think that they are saved and can do no wrong. They do not weep nor do they think that they need repentance.


They are like the brother of the prodigal son.


Well keep up the good work for all that the Father has is already yours but there are some questions that i need to ask that self righteous brother.


Why did you not attempt to talk some sense into your brother when he was a rebellious against his own father? Are you happy to get rid of your brother?


Why are you so full of discontentment (of not having enough to eat and enjoy with friends) while working for your Father?


As God's little children, we inherit not only all that belongs to Him but also we inherited His wisdom and power. Learn to use it wisely, with prudence and obedience towards the will of the Lord. The power of the gods is safely locked within us until our Father sees it fit to unleash them, otherwise we might do much harm not only to other people but mainly to ourselves as well. It is this power that the evil spirits desperately covet and hope to seek control over us the human being.

Like they say, with great power comes great responsibility.


Being a god is "who" we are and created by, mankind is "what" we are made of.

(For example, if anyone asks you, "What are you?  If you are human, you would say, "I am a man" or woman or mankind. 
If anyone ask you, "Who are you? 
Some people would say their name.
Some would even mention their profession or work.  But the kind of job that you do are not WHO you are.
Who are you? 
You are your father's son or daughter.
You carry your father's surname do you not?
You carry your father's DNA and our original parents' DNA Adam and Eve's were called sons of God having the first holy spirit of life given by GOD. 
You carry or inherited your creator's Heavenly Father's Holy Spirit - His breath of LIFE - that gave you your soul and spirit - your life.)



Luke 15:7
"I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance."


THE PARABLE OF THE PRODIGAL SON
LUKE chapter 15:15-20
:15 "And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine."
:16 "And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him."
:17 "And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!"
:18 "I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,"
:19 "And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants."
:20 "And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him."
:31 "And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine."
:32 "It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found."


To the self righteous brother, do not be afraid or think negatively about obedience towards the Lord Most High. Obedience towards God does not mean that we loose our freedom of choice, but rather think of it as learning to avoid pitfalls and death traps that the Lord did foresee and that there are still many things we do not know and have yet to learn. Until we are fully grown up - not only in terms of our earthly years but also in God years, let us just for now follow what Daddy says, shall we?

Does Silver and Gold make you Happy?

Proverbs 3:13
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Proverbs 3:14
For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.

Proverbs 16:20
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.

3 John 1:4
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.




Can Money Buy Happiness?

Does Silver and Gold make you happy?

Sure, why not?

The smell and touch of crisp newly printed money and Glittering stuff are always fun and so do toys, pets, chocolate and cut flowers can make any person feel happy.

Why do you think they sell these things during Valentine's day??

Money can buy us material things that makes us happy but "happiness" is not a tangible thing.

It is a stirring up of emotions that may not necessarily be everlasting.

Maybe that is why people constantly find ways to pursue happiness.
In the Declaration of Independence of USA - Thomas Jefferson - "our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."


But what is "Happiness" ??? This is the main question.


For we know what "money" is. It is a means to exchange for goods.


Is happiness a commodity to you?





****************************************
In Ipoh, Perak, West Malaysia, and several other places, "money" used to be called "Kupang" in Malay language or literal "Clam shell".

Today, people in Perak still refer to ten cents as "satu kupang".

Thousands of years ago, if you have millions of clam, you are probably a millionaire in those days.

The Northern states especially Perak, where fishing were the main livelihood in those days and so is bartering.

One goat in exchange for 5 thousand clams, anyone???


***********************************************************

The definition of happiness or our "Happiness Index" changes as we age.


What made us feel happy when we were 3 years old may not necessarily do so again when we are 33 years old, or maybe and most likely it still can make us happy, depending on what it was.

Find out what makes people happy and then try to see if there is a price tag on it.


It may cost somebody to buy what makes you happy and it may cost you nothing to receive it.


We may receive something happily for free but the cost of giving you that something may have fallen on somebody else who bought for you that bit of happiness and paradise.

In this world, nothing is ever "really" and "totally" free is it?

A wedding ring most probably require money to buy but can you really put a price tag on something that brings joy and eternal happiness? (or at least until you get divorced that is.... ???)



*****************************************************************
Have you ever seen someone pretentious, trying to look like a million dollars but you can tell he has nothing?


Have you ever seen someone who looked like a poor roadside cleaner even though he is wearing designer clothes and has millions of dollars in his bank account?


I guess sometimes, money cannot buy us substance and style; neither can it bring about confidence and trust.

In Isaiah 64:6 mentioned that "in all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags".


Without our Heavenly Father's light of life support and true riches, our own works no matter how good are as filty rags.

Without light shining on a piece of cut diamond, it is useless and has no beauty in darkness.



Psalms 27:1
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalms 36:9
For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

Proverbs 6:23
For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

Proverbs 16:15
In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.

John 1:4
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.


John 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.


2 Timothy 1:10
But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and
hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:





Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

Isaiah 64:7
And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.

Isaiah 64:8
But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

Isaiah 64:9
Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.

No Milk Today?

Is it safe for a poor man to live in a money based world?


Does ALL these mean that No Money No "Live"?

It is as if in this world, if a person does not have money, he will not be allowed to "Live" because he will die of hunger.  

It is not that a person has no "Life" if he does not have money because a person's "life" aka "spirit" is not bound to material monetary means. 

But how a person lives is somewhat directly related to the system of commerce of his day / era and depending on his ability to exchange goods and the good graces of the people around him.

My mother's fifth uncle once downtroddenly said, "Life, I have, but money I do not have" - sometime later, he was murdered.


Is our world a money based world governed by “Mammon and Lucifer”   or a Love and Compassion based world governed by the God of Israel (Jesus Christ)?


Jude 1:22
"And of some have compassion, making a difference:"

Matthew 6:26
"Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?”


Is it not better to be an animal than a man living in a money based kingdom?


The animals live in this same planet but the animals do not live in our “money based kingdom”; but ever so often, our kingdoms do collide, bringing devastating destruction to the animal kingdom.


Mankind created their own web and trappings in this world and therefore are somewhat forced to live bound and chained to the complications of the money web and its trappings.


The Lord has placed upon His Servants the Jews to repair the world.


Are you up to the task to do the Lord’s bidding to go forth and repair the world?


If we do not change our former ways, there would be nothing left to repair.


Tikkun Olam !!! my friends. (“Tikkun Olam” in short means Repairing the World)


Matthew 6:32
“(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.”


Matthew 6:33
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”


Matthew 6:34
“Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”


And to the poor man who has no roof over his head today, do not think of tomorrow…….. for tomorrow will probably be the same…….. still sleeping on the park bench under the starry skies on an empty stomach …………..


It is already too much EVIL for us to handle in one day, why pile onto ourselves tomorrow’s evil as well?


Live one day at a time, for who knows what tomorrow will bring???

Birth of The Saviour, Christ our Lord God of Israel

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour.


Luke 2:10
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

Luke 2:11
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.


Isaiah 45:15
Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

Isaiah 45:16
They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together that are makers of idols.

Isaiah 45:17
But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

Isaiah 45:18
For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.

Isaiah 45:20
Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.


Isaiah 45:21
Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.




Our Saviour has spoken TRUTH and righteousness openly to his Disciples and the peoples of the world and He has NOT spoken anything in secret.


Isaiah 45:19
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

John 18:19
The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

John 18:20
Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.

John 18:21
Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.



(Romans 14:7, 8)
Whether we live or die, in life or death, in living or dying, in belief or disbelief, in acceptance or denial, we still belong to the Lord our CREATOR, even when the whole world forsakes us. We are never truly totally alone in this world or in the next. For all of mankind belongs to the Lord (even the good and the evil) for He is the Lord of the living and the dead.



Romans 14:13
“Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.”

Therefore let us not judge each other with an evil eye or self reasoning or contempt for whatever reason. But instead, be ever more on our guard not to put a stumbling block / obstacle / some action or event that hinders progress of our fellow men.

What is able to hinder progress of our fellow mankind, brothers and sisters?
Depravation / morally corrupt – leading away from what is right.
Deprivation perhaps? – denial of some basic material essential benefits.
Repression, be it in society, ethnic differences, governmental repression of its subjects (forcing people to live in confined areas and refugee camps), religious repression (forced to convert by the sword) and gender repression.

These stumblingblocks that some people place before other people that continues to hinder another man’s progress or freedom to choose or freedom to live or believe.

When someone who claims to do what is right for his government when he kills a religious extremist or “terrorist”, he has provided the so called “terrorist” an occasion to fall. He has placed before his fellow man a stumblingblock. Did the “righteous man” look into the future and have seen that the terrorist is beyond redemption and that he can NEVER repent even though being placed in neutral conditions and after being taught the truth. For who can tell the “TIMING” of a person’s repentance?

It is better to put a sinner / unrepentant person in solitary confinement / life imprisonment than putting him to death.  For the terrorist will give his account to God when it is time and he will be judged accordingly.

But the person who placed the stumblingblock in the terrorist’s path shall also give his account to God when it is time, for the Lord will ask the terrorist, who caused you to fall?

Blessed is he who does not put a stumblingblock in his brother’s way.



Isaiah 45:23 “………....That unto me [ “me” is referring to the God of Israel Himself and He was also called our Saviour Jesus son of Joseph and Mary ] every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.”

Romans 14:5
One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

Romans 14:6
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Romans 14:7
For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

Romans 14:8
For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

Romans 14:9
For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

Romans 14:10
But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

Romans 14:11
For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Romans 14:12
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

Romans 14:13
Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

Isaiah 45:22
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

Isaiah 45:23
I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Isaiah 45:24
Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

Isaiah 45:25
In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.


Among the many reasons why THE CREATOR OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, OUR SPIRITUAL FATHER IN HEAVEN, THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTHY, chose to be born into His own creation is to save us, He is our SAVIOUR, to obtain right to judge over the living and the dead (Romans 14:9). 
If God has never tasted death, the dead will not suffer or allow themselves to be judged over by someone who has never tasted death.  This is how insufferable, proud and conceited mankind is. 

What is Faith?

"Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

- Hebrews 11:1

"That your faith should NOT stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God."

- 1 Corinthians 2:5

Faith as described in Hebrews 11:1 may sound like "fantasy" or "wishful thinking" to many people and it might as well be if we place our trust & faith in the wrong person.  Such error might just bring your whole world come crashing down in trembling and fear.

We may have some degree of faith and trust in the people we know and perhaps a child or baby may have 100% faith on his parents to take care of him/her, but even these may fail when a parent abandons a child at the orphanage or some odd place.

Can a child muster enough faith in his lifetime to trust anyone again, after experiencing abandonment?

Does that child need somebody else to show him kindness and loyalty before he respond with the same OR is it inbuilt within a person that ability to love and trust regardless of the adverse surroundings or bad experiences. 

Is it all about "EVIDENCE" again, that a person may need to know that trust and faith among mankind is possible based on what he sees first before responding?

What about trust and faith in a GOD that we nave NEVER SEEN? What kind of evidence do we need from GOD?

"If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?"

- 1 John 4:20

So, from 1st John 4:20, does our faith in God stem UNCONSCIOUSLY or subconsciously from our own ability to love and trust someone else?

In a way, it is true. as in John 3:6, we were all born from our original pair of ancestors "Adam and Eve" (of whom were Sons of God before their fall from grace) through the ORIGINAL / INITIAL life giving "Spirit of God" upon their CREATION.

Just like when we can trace the evidence of our biological parents through DNA (the flesh), we can trace our Creator through the Holy Spirit of GOD.

In normal circumstances, as a child is so naturally drawn to his parents for love & trust and vice versa; so are we naturally drawn to the LORD for love and trust because the Holy Spirit of God is not empty and hollow but is a part of us that is of substance and reality that can be known and to learn from in a quiet manner because the Spirit is our lifeline link to God, just as the DNA is our link to our biological family, so is the Holy Spirit our link to our Heavenly Father, our creator. (And I am NOT talking about the Pentecostal / Charismatic type of "holy spirit")

"That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit."

- John 3:6

Who on earth would dare put their trust another person whom they have never seen or heard before - as it is neither proper nor safe in this day and age; but if we put our faith in the LORD Most High and when it is in accordance to the will of God, then fantasy sometimes becomes reality and wishful thinking can become miracles.

"And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us."

- 1st John 3:24

"Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God."

- 3 John 1:11

"Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

- Hebrews 11:3

"By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith."

- Hebrews 11:7

How is your faith in the LORD? 

 

Is it based on your constant relationship with the Lord through prayer and study; or is it based on your inbuilt subconscious capacity; or is it based on popular demand of the day - Monkey see, monkey do?

 

Can our faith in the LORD get swayed and we need to attach a spiritual Richter scale to measure our tremor and fear?   

Sometimes.....  probably...... but we constantly hope to build our faith upon the steady ROCK so that when the wind and the waves hit us or sudden earthquake......   we pray for the Lord's saving grace hoping to remain as steady as Daniel in the lion's den and that is to come out alive and in "one piece".
