Epilog

And he said, Unto you (Jesus is saying this to His Apostles) it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. (Luke 8:10)

Have you ever really tried reading the bible? Did you find it as difficult to understand as I did? Well, dont feel bad! I believe that most of us in one way or another have always regarded the Bible as a collection of short stories depicting numerous literal accounts of the lives of a particular group of people that descended from Adam and Eve. Further, many of us believed that these stories having been passed down through the ages have somehow been twisted or skewed since we well know that the more a story is passed on, the more convoluted it gets! And we all must agree that the stories seem quite nonsensical at times and are downright hard to swallow. This is understandable given that it was Gods intention that we would not understand it until the appointed time for it was revealed to Daniel that the prophecies concerning the last times should be closed up and sealed until the time of the end: But then the wise should understand, and knowledge should be increased (Daniel 12:4,9,10). "If they are never to be understood, to what end did God reveal them? Certainly he did it for the edification of the church. And if so then it is certain that the church shall at length attain to the understandings thereof. I dont mean all that call themselves Christians, but a remnant, a few scattered persons which God hath chosen, such as without being led by interest, education, or human authorities, can set themselves sincerely and earnestly to search after truth. For Daniel hath said that the wise shall understand, so he said also that none of the wicked shall understand" - Sir Isaac Newton In a moment you will see that this time is now and you, the reader have been called to receive this food at the proper time! The Bible is an ambiguous book, which is why there are so many Christian churches around today. But the bible can be turned from an ambiguous ocean of doctrinal confusion into a precise river of truth by exploiting the fundamental hidden meanings that are veiled throughout its pages. For not only do these hidden manna enable us to accurately see the literal meaning of bible accounts and the straight symbolic meaning of symbolic bible accounts, but, it also enables us to see the hidden symbolic meanings of the many bible accounts which have them. Most bible accounts do have extra hidden symbolic meanings in addition to their first meanings. The bible is prophetic in nature and every word has meaning. 18 For truly I say to you that sooner would heaven and earth pass away than for one smallest letter or one particle of a letter to pass away from the Law by any means and not all things take place (Matthew 5). Further, Indeed, it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one particle of a letter of the Law to go unfulfilled (Luke 16:17). There are no wasted words in the bible. So repetitions have power, double descriptions have power. Seemingly trivial details have power. Every tense of every verb, every case of every word has power: 12 For the word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints and [their] marrow, and [is] able to discern thoughts and intentions of [the] heart (Hebrews 4). What I would like to demonstrate to you today is that the bible (The Word of God) is in fact still alive exerting power. SO, hold on and brace your mind for activity, for what you are about to behold will change your life forever!

First lesson Hidden Manna & Genesis

We will begin with some scriptures that tell us that there are hidden meanings within the bible. This is an important step that will help you through the rest of this lesson. 33 So with many illustrations of that sort he would speak the word to them, as far as they were able to listen. 34 Indeed, without an illustration he would not speak to them, but privately to his disciples he would explain all things (Mark 4).

So Jesus opened up his symbolic parables for his disciples only, but not for the public at large. By speaking symbolically, those who did not want to believe that he was Gods son, could write off his speech as meaningless ramblings about farm animals and horticulture. They would therefore never get to know Gods plans for men. So those who do not believe in God do not want to believe in him because they do not want God to exist. They do not want him to exist, because if he does exist then they fear that they will have to serve him and obey him, rather than serving and obeying their own desires. They do not know that God is a kinder master to them than their own desires are. Dear reader, do not make this mistake. God gave you your desires to enjoy them whilst controlling them! He did not give you them to replace him! These people, who do not believe in the great finesse of our God, unwittingly are their own worst enemies because God is their friend and means of life and salvation. Without him they have no future. They are choosing not to believe in their own future. But they are free to choose such a course if they wish, and most people do so choose. So it is because mankind has one main enemy, a lying murderer, Satan, and it is because this fraud has many unwitting followers, that God's book, the bible is written in parables and illustrations. Satan has been trying to persuade God to wipe out the whole human race for nearly 6,000 years in order to justify his murderous act on Eve. He is trying to cheat us out of our inheritance, which is to be ageless humans on earth in the Kingdom of God after Armageddon, and to be angels in heaven, and eventually to be God's ourselves, just like our Father. I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High (Psalms 82). I know that most of you regard yourselves as Christians and may be asking why am I being told this...I already believe in God? Well, soon I will show you just how methodical Satan has been in his world of deception. Jesus said in his sermon on the mount: 8 Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God (Matthew 5). The pure in heart do not see God physically, because no man can see God and yet live. They see him with their minds, for he is one short step of reason away. But what does it mean to have a pure heart? Well everyone has impure thoughts, immoral thoughts, and hateful thoughts. And every man utters impure words, immoral words and hateful words. James tells us: 2 If anyone does not stumble in word, this one is a perfect man (James 3). And there are no perfect men amongst the sons of Adam. So plainly a pure heart does not mean that we only think sinless thoughts. No, a pure heart is one that can divorce the truth from any preconceived personal consequences to our status that the truth may have. It is simply a true academic heart, an honest heart. If you are willing to admit you may be wrong about something even if it means losing your job or your status or even your own humility, you have a pure heart. God has intentionally written the bible so that His enemies will find it boring and unproductive for learning. All of the praise in the bible is not because God has a big ego and needs a whole lot of it!! It is there merely to sort the sheep from the goats. He has given to everybody a book about his past dealings with his friends, who lived thousands of years ago, who had many camels and lived in tents and had children and basically did the sort of things that everybody else did back then. This is of no great consequence to the enemies of God. It just looks like an out of date soap opera, written by someone who they do not like. Of what interest to a 20th or 21st century currency speculator is it that Esau lost his birthright to Jacob for a bowl of soup, or that he crossed the Jabbok with 200 female sheep and 20 rams? This sort of information is hardly the sort of thing that would come up on his Reuters screen. But hidden in amongst all of the banal, mundane and everyday tribulations of these friends of God, is the whole of his military plan for saving mankind from sin and death and removing Satan as the God of this world. The plan for men to regain the birthright that Adam lost, namely everlasting human and angelic life as we will demonstrate for you. 22 He is revealing the deep things and the concealed things, knowing what is in the darkness; and with him the light does dwell (Daniel 2). We are looking at the whole book as being effectively written by one person, because Paul tells us that it was: 16 All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness (2 Timothy 3). And Peter tells us: 21 For prophecy was at no time brought by mans will, but men spoke from God as they were borne along by holy spirit (2 Peter 1). So now that we know God was the writer of the bible where does this all lead us? What about these parables and

illustrations? Solomon said: 2 The Glory of God is the keeping of a matter secret, and the glory of kings is the searching through a matter (Proverbs 25). 4 If you keep seeking for it as for silver, and as for hid treasures you keep searching for it, 5 in that case you will understand the fear of Jehovah, and you will find the very knowledge of God (Proverbs 2). So this knowledge is hidden. And it is hidden in the bible, for Paul says of Jesus: 3 Carefully concealed in him are all the treasures of wisdom and of knowledge (Colossians 2). Well, these treasures are not stuffed up his shirt or down his trousers, although in a sense, they are in his body, which is his church. Basically they are hidden in the information we have on him. This information is the bible. For we know and understand that Jesus is the word of God, which is also 'the bible'. Paul describes how it is hidden and revealed: 7 But we speak God's wisdom in a sacred secret, the hidden wisdom, which God foreordained before the systems of things for our glory (1 Corinthians 2). 10 For it is to us God has revealed them through his spirit, for the spirit searches into all things, even the deep things of God (1 Corinthians 2). So again we see that wisdom is hidden in this book, concealed or for lack of a better word, coded. For a code is defined as hidden written information. This is why Jesus says: 2 There is nothing carefully concealed that will not be revealed, and secret that will not become known (Luke 12). 7 Keep on asking, and it will be given you; keep on seeking, and you will find; keep on knocking, and it will be opened to you (Matthew 7). And really you do not have to look that far. But you do have to look, yourself! For God said to Adam: 19 In the sweat of your face you will eat bread (Genesis 3) And Jesus said to Satan: 4 But in reply he said: It is written, 'Man must live, not on bread alone, but on every utterance coming forth through God's mouth' (Matthew 4) From the two of which it is not hard to deduce that we will digest God's word in the sweat of our faces as well as digesting bread in this way. Gabriel said to Daniel: 4 And as for you, O Daniel, make secret the words and seal up the book, until the time of [the] end. Many will rove about, and the [true] knowledge will become abundant (Daniel 12). We are now in this time; this website is the proof as we will soon open up the scriptures for you. Daniel said to Nebuchadnezzar: 28 However, there exists a God in the heavens who is a Revealer of secrets, and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what is to occur in the final part of the days (Daniel 2). And not only to him! But also to Jesus, who opened up the minds of his disciples: 45 Then he opened up their minds fully to grasp the meaning of the Scriptures (Luke 24). It is quite a task. 25 The woman said to him: I know that Messiah is coming, who is called Christ. Whenever that one arrives, he will declare all things to us openly.

26 Jesus said to her: I who am speaking to you am he (John 4). So the scriptures do not declare things openly, but the Christ opened them up. So the scriptures have hidden meanings and there is a bible within the bible! Jesus opened up these scriptures to their minds. Paul describes one particular account in Genesis as a symbolic drama: 22 For example, it is written that Abraham acquired two sons, one by the servant girl and one by the free woman; 23 but the one by the servant girl was actually born in the manner of flesh, the other by the free woman through a promise. 24 These things stand as a symbolic drama; for these [women] mean two covenants, the one from Mount Sinai , which brings forth children for slavery, and which is Hagar. 25 Now this Hagar means Sinai, a mountain in Arabia, and she corresponds with the Jerusalem today, for she is in slavery with her children. 26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother (Galatians 4). Hagar stood for the Law covenant mediated by Moses and Sarah for the new covenant mediated by Jesus, described as Pauls mother. But what is so special about this particular account in Genesis? Is it the only one to be a symbolic drama? And what is so special about Genesis in the Old Testament. Might there not be some symbolic dramas in Exodus? In fact, we know that the bible is a consistent book having but one ghost writer - if you will pardon the metaphor! So we know the whole book, the bible, stands as one giant symbolic drama. I would also like to show you the shortest parable in the bible which is: 33 Another illustration he spoke to them: The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three large measures of flour, until the whole mass was fermented/leavened (Matthew 13). Ok, you young paduan learners! If it is the most insignificant and smallest of the parables in the whole bible, then what does this tell you about its spiritual meaning in this upside down world in which we live? Yes, it is the greatest of them all in meaning. Well, the event symbolic meaning is as follows: The woman is the Holy Spirit, the leaven is the hidden meanings in the bible, and the three lumps of flour are the literal, event symbolic and the account (or word) symbolic meanings of the bible. When the whole mass is fermented/leavened (deduced), then we can truly eat the whole book and see the hidden meanings and the truth and God and the true religion and his plan and his love and his humor and his righteousness, and our total and utter pretentiousness and stupidity stretching over 3500 years. The greater meaning however is in the Word Symbolic meaning which relates to the three master covenants and how they apply to our entrance into the Kingdom of God. This will be addressed in more detail later! This leaven is not the wicked teachings of the Pharisees but is rather the good teachings of the true priesthood of God. This website is the result of such leaven. We are expanding the bread of heaven to make it fully digestible. I struggled in my effort to determine where to begin with this undertaking in revealing the hidden manna since the bible is so big and so tall, and after careful thought it occurred to me, why not start in the beginning by opening some of Genesis. After all, it is one of the most controversial sections of the book! So without further ado 27 And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in Gods image he created him, male and female he created them (Genesis 1). 26 And he made out of one [man] every nation of men, to dwell upon the entire surface of the earth, and he decreed the appointed times and the set limits of the dwelling of [men] (Acts 17). The conflict has always been that the Fundamental Christian says that Adam was the first man and so Archaeology is rubbish. The Archeologist says mankind has for a fact been around for 30,000 years and we have good evidence that he has been around for over 2 million years, so the concept that we began with Adam 6,000 years ago (according to biblical chronology) is rubbish and therefore Genesis is rubbish. How do we resolve this conflict between Science and Religion? They both cannot be right! Traditionally religious people just throw away their reasoning capability and say, my faith tells me that the bible is right and that is the end of it. This is a very dangerous thing to do, it is a lazy idolatry of an illogical church doctrine, and it is selling God and his book, the bible,

short. It happens because people in general do not have the courage of their deductions. They do not believe that they have the mental power to climb out of the trap that has been laid for them. It has always been easier to just shrug our shoulders and say, boy, I will never understand this bible stuff. I better leave that up to my priest and blindly follow what he tells me! This demonstrates how easy it is persuade others to believe doctrines that have no biblical (scriptural) basis. The Muslim suicide bombers of the last days are busy showing us just how dangerous religious brainwashing can be. Most, if not all people with faith, throw away their reason when they join a religion and just accept the doctrine of their church or mosque or synagogue etc. But Jesus did not command us to become brainwashed idolaters of the lame spiritual understandings of priests or rabbis or imams that only want to control us for their own purposes. He said: 37 You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind (Matthew 22). And the first living stone that Jesus laid in the Christian church (Peter), said... 13 Hence brace up your minds for activity, keep your senses completely; set your hope upon the undeserved kindness that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ (1 Peter 1). This Revelation requires brain power and of course the world is being dumbed down further and further every day at the very time that the Revelation is occurring because there is a battle between the holy angels and the deadly demons and we humans are the victims in the middle. But we can avoid being a casualty of this war if we open our minds' eyes and seek these matters out as we have been commanded to do! So what is the resolution to this fundamental question? Jesus said that we should scrutinize every little detail of every scripture... 17 Do not think I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I came, not to destroy, but to fulfill. 18 For truly I say to you that sooner would heaven and earth pass away than for one smallest letter or one particle of a letter to pass away from the Law [of God, the whole bible] by any means and not all things take place (Matthew 5). Let us therefore apply this kind of scrutiny to the account of the creation of mankind in Genesis 1. (If you are using the King James version of the bible to authenticate this, some of it may not follow to a tee since we used the Westcott-Hort text in an interlinear bible that includes Strong's concordance. This helps to remove the ambiguity and preserves the original text that has been lost in the translation.) 26 And God went on to say: Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every moving [animal] that is moving upon the earth. 27 And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God's image he created him; male and female he created them 28 Further, God blessed them and God said to them: Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth (Genesis 1). Now at first sight this looks like a rather repetitive account of the creation of mankind. But let us examine these verses a bit closer since they may just hold the secret to our very existence within them. 26 Let us make man in our image according to our likeness (Genesis 1). man in our image according to our likeness

Where means 'in' and means 'as', and the root means: Shade, shadow, image, likeness, and the root means: Likeness.

27 And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God's image he created him, male and female he created them (Genesis 1) the man in his image in image of God.

So man was created by 'us' in 'our image' according to 'our likeness', an image of several beings, but 'the man' was created by 'God' in God's image, an image of one being, not in 'our image' and not according to any likeness. This is precisely the distinction that we have just made above. Namely, 'man' is generic, made by a plurality of Gods and made in the image of a plurality of Gods, 'our image', whereas Adam, is unique, made by Jehovah God himself and made in the image of the one and only God, Jehovah. So 'man' stands for mankind, which was Homo sapiens, and 'the man' stands for the one off Adam. Taking this knowledge a step further, here is a comparative table of the two successive accounts of our creation. This breaks the two accounts down in an illustrative way to show the power of the omission principal of biblical understandings...(Also, scrutinize every word for they differ somewhat.) Action Who does the creating? In whose image? Name Blessed? Be fruitful become many fill the earth? Verse 26 Us (God and the holy angels) In our image (the image of the angels) Man No No Verse 27 God himself The image of God himself The Man Yes Yes

What do they have in subjection?

Fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the fish of the sea and the flying creatures heavens and the domestic animals and all the of the heavens and every living earth and every moving [animal] that is moving [being] that is moving upon the earth upon the earth

So verse 27 and 28 are not merely a repetition of the creative act of verse 26. Verses 27 and 28 are the creation of something different from verse 26. Verse 26 is the creation of 'man', of mankind, of pre-adamic man. He was created by the angels in the image of the angels, whereas verse 27 is the creation of 'the man', Adam, he was created by God in the image of God. God is perfect, the angels are not, and these are two different images and therefore two different creations. Pre-adamic man was not blessed, Adam was. Adam was blessed because he was spiritual; the blessing truly is the everlasting inheritance as a son of God. Adam was God's son, pre-adamic man were sons of the angels. Pre-adamic man never did fill the earth. Adamic man, the sons of Adam certainly have - almost to capacity right now! Adam had in subjection every living being moving upon the earth, whereas pre-adamic man had in subjection every moving animal that is moving upon the earth. In other words Adam was to have pre-adamic man, who was a moving non-spiritual being (animalistic) in his subjection. Modern Archaeology has advanced to the point where we can trace the history of man back to an origin around 2.8 million years ago. So God introduced himself to mankind through Adam and Eve, around 6,000 years ago, when mankind had developed spiritually to the point where he was ready to learn directly from God. When mankind was ready for spiritual nursery school, God introduced himself to us through Adam and Eve. So who were Adam and Eve? Many folks believe that Adam stands for 'all prehistoric men' and Eve stands for 'all prehistoric women' and that these two evolved into modern man but with some help from God. In fact Pope Paul apparently had a similar belief, the belief that God in some way helped out with evolution. This was because the biblical story of Adam and Eve seems at first sight to be too naive and too simplistic to be literally true. Modern sophisticated man who believes that we arrived here through evolution and who knows that mankind existed before Adam finds the biblical account of our creation somewhat lacking in credibility. But such a view is incorrect for the following two reasons at the least. Firstly God is more intelligent than us, so it is

inconceivable that we would know more about our creation than he does, so his book must reflect this knowledge gap. Secondly, God evidently requires us to work for our physical food and likewise he requires us to work for our spiritual food. In other words we need to decode Genesis; we need to unravel it, to fully understand our beginning as a species. We are now going to take you through 3 realizations. [A] Adam and Eve were real people, a man and a woman. [B] Adam was created in precisely the same way that Jesus was created. [C] Eve was created from a fully grown pre-adamic woman (outside the Garden) [A] Adam and Eve were real people, a man and a woman 23 Furthermore, Jesus himself, when he commenced [his work], was about 30 years old, being the son, as the opinion was, of Joseph, [son] of Heli, [who was Mary's father] 24 [son] of Matthat, [Mary's mother's father] [son] of Levi, [Mary's mother's mother's father] [son] of Melchi, [This is the maternal line] [son] of Jannai, [son] of Joseph,25 [son] of Mattathias, [son] of Amos,[son] of Nahum,[son] of Esli,[son] of Naggai,26 [son] of Maath,[son] of Mattathias,[son] of Semein,[son] of Josech,[son] of Joda,27 [son] of Joanan,[son] of Rhesa,[son] of Zerubbabel,[son] of Shealtiel,[son] of Neri,28 [son] of Melchi,[son] of Addi,[son] of Cosam,[son] of Elmadam,[son] of Er,29 [son] of Jesus, [son] of Eliezer,[son] of Jorim,[son] of Matthat,[son] of Levi,30 [son] of Symeon,[son] of Judas,[son] of Joseph,[son] of Jonam,[son] of Eliakim,31 [son] of Melea, [son] of Menna,[son] of Mattatha,[son] of Nathan,[son] of David [maternal and paternal lines merge],32 [son] of Jesse, [son] of Obed,[son] of Boaz,[son] of Salmon,[son] of Nahshon,33 [son] of Amminadab,[son] of Arni,[son] of Hezron,[son] of Perez,[son] of Judah,34 [son] of Jacob,[son] of Isaac,[son] of Abraham, [son] of Terah,[son] of Nahor,35 [son] of Serug, [son] of Reu,[son] of Peleg,[son] of Eber,[son] of Shelah,36 [son] of Cainan, [son] of Arpachshad,[son] of Shem,[son] of Noah,[son] of Lamech,37 [son] of Methuselah,[son] of Enoch,[son] of Jared, [son] of Mahalaleel,[son] of Cainan,38 [son] of Enosh,[son] of Seth,son] of Adam,[son] of God (Luke 3). All of these ancestors were real human beings (except God of course), so Adam was a real human being. This line has 77 characters in it from Jesus to God inclusive. This is actually the maternal line, with each woman represented by her husband. The maternal line merges with the paternal line at King David . The Paternal line from Abraham to Jesus is described in Matthew 1... 1 The book of the history of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham: 2 Abraham became father to Isaac; Isaac became father to Jacob; Jacob became father to Judah and his brothers; 3 Judah became father to Perez and to Zerah by Tamar; Perez became father to Hezron; Hezron became father to Ram; 4 Ram became father to Amminadab; Amminadab became father to Nahshon; Nahshon became father to Salmon; 5 Salmon became father to Boaz by Rahab; Boaz became father to Obed by Ruth; Obed became father to Jesse; 6 Jesse became father to David the king. David became father to Solomon by the wife of Uriah... 15 Eliud became father to Eleazar. Eleazar became father to Matthan. Matthan became father to Jacob. 16 Jacob became father to Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ (Matthew 1). Obviously this proves that Adam was a real human. Her are some other shorter biblical proofs 45 It is even so written: The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit (1 Corinthians 15). 1 Now Adam had intercourse with Eve his wife and she became pregnant. In time she gave birth to Cain and said: I have produced a man with the aid of Jehovah (Genesis 4). [B] Adam was created in precisely the same way that Jesus was created 7 And Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul. 8 Further, Jehovah God planted a garden in Eden, toward the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. So 'the man' was formed before he was put into the garden. Where was he before this? Was he all by himself - nowhere? Well we know from Genesis 4 & 5 that outside the garden were the pre adamic humans. So the formation process for Adam was rather more involved than the brief description above.

14 Nevertheless, death ruled as king from Adam down to Moses, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of the transgression by Adam, who bears a resemblance to him that was to come [Jesus] (Romans 5:14). A striking resemblance in fact! Notice that Paul did not say who 'bore' a resemblance, he said who 'bears' present tense, a resemblance. This means that Adam is living to Paul for Jesus used this very verbal tense argument to the Sadducees to show that Abraham was living to God. 31 As regards the resurrection of the dead, did you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32 I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob? He is the God, not of the dead, but of the living (Matthew 22). Now Paul called Jesus, the last Adam... 45 It is even so written: The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit (1 Corinthians 15). Now if Jesus was the last Adam, then Adam was the first Jesus. Therefore Adam was born to a surrogate mother and father as was Jesus. Paul says further that Jesus gave himself a corresponding ransom for all... 6 Who gave himself a corresponding ransom for all [this is] what is to be witnessed to at its own particular times (1 Timothy 2:6). Jesus corresponded to Adam, the one whom he ransomed, thereby realizing all of his children from the one and only death sentence on them. We are all under the death sentence passed and eventually executed upon Adam. The first Adam was God's son born by Immaculate Conception to pre adamic parents just as Jesus was to Mary & Joseph, the last Adam, was God's son born to Adamic parents. The first Adam was weaned and brought up until the age of 11 by pre adamic human parents. These guys were not Neanderthals, but modern man (homo-sapiens). However they had not invented writing or the wheel and had not domesticated the horse and had not achieved very much at that time. However God took over the schooling of Adam once he was 11 years old, when he entered the Garden of Eden and was commissioned to build the temple of his aging body which we all inhabit today. Jesus on the other hand appeared before the Pharisees aged 11 by our reckoning but aged 12 by Hebrew reckoning and his parents lost him for 3 days, whereas Adam's parents lost him for 22 years, because Adam sinned and left the garden and was returned to his parents again aged 33 years, the same age that Jesus was when he was murdered and paid for Adam's sin. This is the full correspondence between Adam who sinned when he was 33 years old and Jesus who paid for that sin when he was 33 years old. This will be explained in detail in a later lesson. 41 Now his parents were accustomed to go from year to year to Jerusalem for the festival of the passover. 42 And when he became twelve years old, they went up according to the custom of the festival 43 and completed the days. But when they were returning, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem , and his parents did not notice it. 44 Assuming that he was in the company traveling together, they covered a day's distance and then began to hunt him up among the relatives and acquaintances. 45 But, not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem, making a diligent search for him. 46 Well, after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers and listening to them and questioning them (Luke 2). [C] Eve was created from a fully grown pre-adamic woman The situation with Eve is slightly more complicated. The giveaway scripture is this, Adam said: This is at last bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh this one will be called Woman, because from Man this one was taken (Genesis 2:23) We know that God took Adam's rib and formed into Eve. But here we are told that she was taken not from 'the man' who is Adam, but from 'man' who is mankind in general (outside the Garden). Now we know that Eve appeared before Adam as a fully formed woman. So what must have happened was that God formed Eve in a surrogate mother as Adam had been formed and gave her the same genetic makeup as Adam had in that she too had an indefinitely lasting body. He actually gave her the body that she will have in the Kingdom of God. Some body huh? No wonder Adam fell for her! Although the particulars are slightly more complicated this, the time for them will

come later. So as Paul would say, Just as Eve resulted from the temporary death of Adam, so the first century church, the bride of Christ, resulted from the temporary death of Jesus. Here is a nice table of correspondence between the birth of Eve, Adam's wife and the birth of the New covenant saints, Jesus' wife: Adam Deep Sleep Rib out God closes his flesh over its place Jesus Death and Resurrection Judas, one of the 12 (ribs, pillars), of Jesus' body (the church), leaves the last supper before the New Covenant is made. He is left out. The Law covenant ends before the rib is replaced by the twelfth apostle Matthias (Acts 1)

Eve brought to Adam The New Covenant Saints (Jesus' collective bride) are resurrected to Jesus in Heaven. by God There are two incredible and beautiful deep understandings relating to this creation section that will be opened for you at another time. Right now we are simply demonstrating that hidden manna does exist. I truly hope that these basic steps have enabled you to see that there are in fact deep hidden meanings veiled throughout the pages of the bible. And I can't stress enough that it is up to each and every one of us to seek these matters out. If you feel ready, you should move on to the Second Lesson. I recommend that you try to get through one lesson each day so you have time to digest what you eat before moving on, however, you know your own pace so go for it when you are ready! What you have just read is just the beginning!

Second Lesson - Who is the Holy Spirit

In an effort to show you just how important scriptures are, we will use them to answer some of those fundamental questions that we all wonder about but never really have taken the time to research. The reason I bring this up is to show you that you have the power within you to seek these matters out on your own. We must never get into the habit of blindly following those who profess to know God yet have little or no understanding of scriptures. There are many wolves in sheep's clothing who would rather have you live in darkness in order to keep them in business than those who appreciate seeking the truth. The Holy Spirit is God's Wife! The holy spirit is described by John as the helper: 26 But the helper, the holy spirit, which the Father will send in my name, that one will teach you all things and bring back to your minds all the things I told you (John 14). But Adam's wife was described in the same way: 18 And Jehovah God went on to say: It is not good for the man to continue by himself. I am going to make a helper for him, as a complement of him (Genesis 2). This is not a coincidence. Just as Eve was a complement and helper to Adam so the holy spirit is God's helper, and a complement to him. It is his wife. It is Jesus' mum. The 3, God, The Holy Spirit and Jesus, are a family. They are Father Mother and Son, for Jesus did not come from a single parent family as all churches would have you believe. Remember that what is happening on the earth was given as types and images of what goes on in the heavens. Another way to see that God has a wife is to consider the Jesus' words when he said... 19 Therefore, in answer, Jesus went on to say to them: Most truly I say to you, The Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner (John 5).

So Jesus only does what he has seen his father do first. But the whole of Jesus' ministry can be regarded as a journey to a distant land to get himself a large composite wife, which wife he paid for with his blood. And certainly Jesus suceeded and got a wife - see U65. So John 5:19 is basically saying that God is married, which is hardly surprising. It is telling us that God himself must also have got himself a wife in a similar manner to Jesus. Jesus proposed to the 1NC saints at the last supper and ended up marrying 144,000 of them who now make up his composite wife, his heavenly home. 1 And I saw, and, look! the Lamb standing upon the Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a sound out of heaven as the sound of many waters and as the sound of loud thunder; and the sound that I heard was as of singers who accompany themselves on the harp playing on their harps. 3 And they are singing as if a new song before the throne and before the 4 living creatures and the elders; and no one was able to master that song but the 144,000, who have been bought from the earth. 4 These are the ones that did not defile themselves with women; in fact, they are virgins. These are the ones that keep following the Lamb no matter where he goes. These were bought from among mankind as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb, 5 and no falsehood was found in their mouths; they are without blemish (Revelation 14). 8 Yes, it has been granted to her to be arrayed in bright, clean, fine linen, for the fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the holy ones. 9 And he tells me: Write: Happy are those invited to the evening meal of the Lamb's marriage. Also, he tells me: These are the true sayings of God (Revelation 19). In fact God's wife is likewise 144,000 holy angels who as a group make up the holy spirit, the house of God, his church. The holy spirit is not mentioned much in the old testament, but here are all the explicit references to it as 'the holy spirit'... 11 Do not throw me away from before your face; And your holy spirit O do not take away from me (Psalm 51). 10 But they themselves rebelled and made his holy spirit feel hurt. He now was changed into an enemy of theirs; he himself warred against them (Isaiah 63). 11 And one began to remember the days of long ago, Moses his servant: Where is the One that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the One that put within him His own holy spirit? (Isaiah 63). But it is referred to more in other ways... 9 And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hand upon him; and the sons of Israel began to listen to him and they went doing just as Jehovah had commanded Moses (Deuteronomy 34). 17 the spirit of the truth, which the world cannot receive, because it neither beholds it nor knows it. You know it, because it remains with you and is in you (John 14) [this is a new testament reference, both wisdom and truth are fruitages of the holy spirit]. 31 And he proceeded to fill him with the spirit of God in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in every sort of craftsmanship (Exodus 35). Since the holy spirit imparts wisdom it must be an intelligent being or beings. Likewise we can deduce that the holy spirit is a living intelligent thing because it can plead for us: 26 In like manner the spirit also joins in with help for our weakness; for the [problem of] what we should pray for as we need to we do not know, but the spirit itself pleads/intercedes for us with groanings unuttered (Romans 8). Furthermore it gets hurt and grieves... 30 Also, do not be grieving God's holy spirit, with which you have been sealed for a day of releasing by ransom (Ephesians 4). And it has a will of its own... 11 But all these operations the one and the same spirit performs, making a distribution to each one respectively just as it

wills (1 Corinthians 12). So since it is a living spirit, so it must consist either of an angel or of a group of them. We know that there is more than one holy angel... 4 Making his angels [his messengers] spirits, his ministers a devouring fire (Psalm 104). 13 But with reference to which one of the angels has he ever said: Sit at my right hand, until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth on behalf of those who are going to inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1). The holy spirit does God's ministering and contains ministers, who are holy spirits plural. So the holy spirit is a group of angels. But why would any holy angel be excluded? So it must be the group of all the angels who are holy, all the angels who are married to God, all the angels who are in a covenant with God. Hence Paul said: 26 But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother (Galatians 4). The Jerusalem above is God's heavenly administration which is all of the loyal angels, which is all of the holy spirits. Paul explicitly states that these angels are our Mother, for they give birth to all the new angels. Now mother's plead with father's not to be too hard on errant sons. And that is precisely the meaning of Romans 8:26, the holy spirit interceding with God for the sanctified ones, is the mother interceding with the father for her sons. God does refer to a whole nation of people as one person... 22 And you must say to Pharaoh: This is what Jehovah has said: Israel is my son, my firstborn (Exodus 4). He also refers to the entire church as Jesus' wife, one person in the singular... 22 Let wives be in subjection to their husbands as to the Lord, 23 because a husband is head of his wife as the Christ also is head of the congregation, he being a savior of [that] body. 24 In fact, as the congregation is in subjection to the Christ, so let wives also be to their husbands in everything (Ephesians 5). So the whole congregation is regarded as being one body, one wife. The account of Philip baptizing the ethiopian eunuch gives the secret away entirely when read with the eyes open. 26 However, Jehovah's angel spoke to Philip, saying: Rise and go to the south to the road that runs down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert road. 27 With that he rose and went, and, look! an Ethiopian eunuch, a man in power under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, and who was over all her treasure. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship, 28 but he was returning and was sitting in his chariot and reading aloud the prophet Isaiah. 29 So the spirit said to Philip: Approach and join yourself to this chariot. 30 Philip ran alongside and heard him reading aloud Isaiah the prophet, and he said: Do you actually know what you are reading? 31 He said: Really, how could I ever do so, unless someone guided me? And he entreated Philip to get on and sit down with him. 32 Now the passage of Scripture that he was reading aloud was this: As a sheep he was brought to the slaughter, and as a lamb that is voiceless before its shearer, so he does not open his mouth. 33 During his humiliation the judgment was taken away from him. Who will tell the details of his generation? Because his life is taken away from the earth. 34 In answer the eunuch said to Philip: I beg you, About whom does the prophet say this? About himself or about some other man? 35 Philip opened his mouth and, starting with this Scripture, he declared to him the good news about Jesus. 36 Now as they were going over the road, they came to a certain body of water, and the eunuch said: Look! A body of water; what prevents me from getting baptized? 37 there is no verse 37 in the original Greek 38 With that he commanded the chariot to halt, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 When they had come up out of the water, Jehovah's spirit quickly led Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him anymore, for he kept going on his way rejoicing (Acts 8).

So Jehovah's angel was the speaking as 'the spirit' which was 'Jehovahs spirit'. This shows that God's spirit consists of angels. In fact the angel who spoke to Philip would have probably been his opposite number in the holy spirit. For there is a one to one correspondence between the 144,000 angels of the holy spirit, God's wife, and the 144,000 angels of Jesus' wife, the 1NC saints. So now we can understand the sentiments of Paul when he said... 19 Do not admit an accusation against an older man, except only on the evidence of 2 or 3 witnesses. 20 Reprove before all onlookers persons who practice sin, that the rest also may have fear. 21 I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus and the chosen angels [the 144,000 angels chosen by God to be actually his second wife, the holy spirit, the 3rd witness] to keep these things without prejudgment, doing nothing according to a biased leaning (1 Timothy 5). God must have married his second wife and celebrated with the week long feast after Jesus ascended on 33Iyyar25 and before the holy spirit was poured out and the 12 apostles of that spirit sat upon the heads of the 12 apostles of the 1NC at Pentecost 33. So there are in fact 3 divine witness bearers in heaven, the father, the son (who became a God at his resurrection) and the holy spirit, the step mother of Jesus and the mother of the 1NC saints, the second wife of God. So this puts the canonicity of the extra phrase in 1John5:7-8 in a new context! We believe, that Jesus gave his firstborn angelic rights, which he had purchased from Satan, to Gabriel who then became the head of the second holy spirit just as Satan was the head of the first holy spirit. For we know that Jesus then became the first created God, the firstborn God, the only begotten God who is in the bosom with the father (John 1:18). Jesus cannot both be a God to be worshipped with his own wife, the 1NC saints, the holy spirit of the kingdom, and the head of the holy spirit of God. 26 In her 6th month the angel Gabriel was sent forth from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin promised in marriage to a man named Joseph of David's house; and the name of the virgin was Mary. 28 And when he went in before her he said: Good day, highly favored one, Jehovah is with you. 29 But she was deeply disturbed at the saying and began to reason out what sort of greeting this might be. 30 So the angel said to her: Have no fear, Mary, for you have found favor with God; 31 and, look! you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and you are to call his name Jesus. 32 This one will be great and will be called Son of the Most High; and Jehovah God will give him the throne of David his father, 33 and he will rule as king over the house of Jacob forever, and there will be no end of his kingdom (Luke 1) God sent his heavenly wife, the true mother of Jesus, the second holy spirit, to tell Mary, the surrogate mother of Jesus, about her giving birth to his son, by his heavenly wife. Gabriel made the announcement, so he was the head of God's wife, the mediator of the second holy spirit. He was promised in marriage to God but not actually married, just as Mary was promised in marriage to Joseph but not actually married! Gabriel conceived through the conception of Mary. Technical Note This may be why Jesus said to Peter... 52 Then Jesus said to him: Return your sword to its place, for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father to supply me at this moment more than 12 legions of angels? [72,000 angels] 54 In that case, how would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must take place this way? (Matthew 26). These angels of the holy spirit being in one to one correspondence with the 72,000/80,000 1NC saints of the first presence. Husbands and Wives Here is a table of greater or lesser husbands and wives... Husbands Joseph President King Wives Mary First Lady Queen

Jesus Priest Managing Director President of corporation Manager of sports team Field Marshal Prime Minister God

Christian church Congregation Board of directors All the vice presidents as a group Sports Team His Army Cabinet Holy Spirit, all the holy angels

The very word 'corporation', or 'incorporated' means a lot of people regarded as one body. Now the Holy Spirit is the Mother of everyone living spiritually whereas Adam called his wife Eve because: 20 After this Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she had to become the mother of everyone living (Genesis 3). So God does have a family, and in this family he is the father, the holy spirit is the mother, God's wife, and Jesus is now the firstborn son. So there it is. There is nothing mystical or indecipherable about it, we are just talking about your regular family (well OK they are a rather powerful example!). This is why you cannot blaspheme against God or against his wife, who wears his name but you could blaspheme against Jesus, before he was resurrected... 31 On this account I say to you: Every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven. 32 For example, whoever speaks a word [in blasphemy] against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks [in blasphemy] against the holy spirit, it will not be forgiven him, no, not in this system of things nor in that to come (Matthew 12). So the holy spirit has the same status as God, being his wife, so it cannot just be one angel, for if it was, then that angel would also be a God to be worshipped with the same status as Jehovah. Incidentally the holy spirit, or helper or comforter, the spirit of the truth, the spirit of wisdom, sent by God, is always referred to in the neuter in scripture. However, the spirit of truth, sent by Jesus, which is also called a helper is referred to in the masculine... 26 When the helper arrives that I will send you from the Father, the spirit of the truth, which proceeds from the Father, that one will bear witness about me (John 15). 7 Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth. It is for your benefit I am going away. For if I do not go away, the helper will by no means come to you, but if I do go my way, I will send him to you (John 16). 13 However, when that one arrives, the spirit of the truth, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak of his own impulse, but what things he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things coming (John 16). This 'spirit of the truth', the one sent by Jesus, as opposed to the one sent by Jehovah, is the angel of Revelation that presented Revelation in signs to John... 1 A revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him, to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place. And he sent forth his angel and presented [it] in signs through him to his slave John (Revelation 1). So all of the holy angels together, as the holy spirit, are feminine. But each individual angel is masculine. 13 But with reference to which one of the angels has he ever said: Sit at my right hand, until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet? 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth [as the holy spirit] on behalf of those who are going to inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1).

The holy spirit itself is the helper, the ministering spirit for all of us, and so are these angels. So the one is the sum of the others. First Century Christian Writings The Savior himself said: Just now my mother, the Holy Spirit, took me by one of my hairs [an angel loyal to Jesus' promised headship of the holy spirit that came after his sacrifice] and carried me up to the great mountain, Tabor (Gospel of the Hebrews). So the Holy Spirit is Jesus mum.

Third Lesson - Who is the Ruler of This World

Many of today's Christians are pretty sure about who the ruler of this world is. The important thing is understanding why and what we should do about it! Satan is the ruler of this system of things When Adam sinned and was thrown out of the garden, Satan was given rulership over mankind. Paul says... 14 Nevertheless, death ruled as king from Adam down to Moses, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of the transgression by Adam, who bears a resemblance to him that was to come (Romans 5). 17 For if by the trespass of the one [man] death ruled as king through that one, much more will those who receive the abundance of the undeserved kindness and of the free gift of righteousness rule as kings in life through the one [person], Jesus Christ (Romans 5). Death is Satan's name since he brought it about. Jesus is called 'the life', and Satan is called 'the death', or perhaps just plain 'death' to his friends. So he ruled from Adam down to Moses over everyone because of the trespass of the one man Adam. God himself ruled the Jews once they agreed to obey the Law Covenant. Satan is still ruling us all today physically. He is referred to in scripture as the God of this system of things... 3 If, now, the good news we declare is in fact veiled, it is veiled among those who are perishing, 4 among whom the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through (2 Corinthians 4). He is 'the ruler of the world' for Jesus said, just before he died: 30 I shall not speak much with you anymore, for the ruler of the world is coming. And he has no hold on me (John 14). This world therefore began at Adam's trespass. But this ruler will be chucked out: 31 Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out (John 12). In fact he is locked up for the entire duration of the kingdom of God, as we shall see below. He is deposed immediately before the Kingdom arrives and incarcerated shortly thereafter. So the end of the world, is the end of his world, not the end of the planet. It is the end of his system of things which is the current system of things, a system which started at the founding of the world (i.e. the day Adam sinned). The founding of the world was the trespass of Adam and the start of the 7th creative day of Genesis, when God rested from his creative works: 3 For we who have exercised faith do enter into the rest, just as he has said: So I swore in my anger, They shall not enter into my rest, although his works were finished from the founding of the world. 4 For in one place he has said of the seventh day as follows: And God rested on the seventh day from all his works, 5 and again in this place: They shall not enter into my rest (Hebrews 4). God's last creative act was to make some clothes for Adam and Eve at the time of their sin: 21 And Jehovah God proceeded to make long garments of skin for Adam and for his wife and to clothe them (Genesis 3).

This scripture is literally true, God did make them both clothes. But it also has a greater meaning, a cryptic meaning that relates to the long life spans of people prior to the flood. So Adam's sin was the founding of the World, the beginning of the current system of things. And the God of this system of things, the ruler of this world is Satan, whose name is death. This is how Satan was able to offer all the kingdoms of the world to Jesus, if he would perform one act of worship to him: 5 So he brought him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the inhabited earth in an instant of time. 6 And the Devil said to him: I will give you all this authority and the glory of them, because it has been delivered to me, and to whomever I wish I give it. 7 You, therefore, if you do an act of worship before me, it will all be yours. 8 In reply Jesus said to him: It is written, It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service (Luke 4). Jesus did not say, who are you kidding? You do not own any kingdoms! He knew that Satan did have these kingdoms to give. He also knew that Satan had the practice of giving them to various people. Having received them at the founding of the world. But Jesus was not interested in status, or in the glory of men, and did not want to be first lieutenant to a lying murderer. It is of course a huge realization that Satan is the god of this system of things and the ruler of the world. And we appreciate that if this concept is new to you it may cause some serious consternation. But remember that Satan can only act within prescribed limits set by God. God is the referee here, and Satan is just a very dirty team captain, he is not the head of the corporation (although some might disagree). But he does have a lot of supporters. God only allows Satan's continued existence and authority in order that we can learn from him without having ourselves to become like him. But nonetheless the world is the Titanic and Satan is the captain, and God is the iceberg, but Jesus is the lifeboat. However in his case it will not be the rich ones who get in first, whilst the poor are locked in below, in fact quite the reverse. Anyone and everyone who wants to get in and be saved will be, and the rich, because they falsely believe that they have got it made already, will, in general find it harder to leave their comfort zone. They can be trapped by their own physical success. Come on guys, wake up!! In fact the scripture says 19 We know we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the [power of the] wicked one (1 John 5). Please heed these words and use what God has given you through His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that being a roadmap to salvation. You have been called or you wouldn't be here right now! Please continue with the next lesson.....

Fourth Lesson - The Way the Bible is Written

Genesis 4, John 3 and the sons of Jacob Here is a simple rhetorical question for the reader. Is mankind more intelligent than God or is God more intelligent than mankind? We have seen in the first few lessons, that the bible is written in a very intelligent way, and of course Jesus said that it was so written... 18 For truly I say to you that sooner would heaven and earth pass away than for one smallest letter or one particle of a letter to pass away from the Law [of God, the whole bible] by any means and not all things take place (Matthew 5). Since the bible is written intelligently and diligently, we have to read it intelligently and diligently. Here are 3 examples of how intelligently it is written and how intelligently we need to read it. First impressions of bible accounts are often incorrect. The holy spirit will confound you if you do not think about every word in the account and put the entire jigsaw together. Our experience is that pretty much every time you revisit an account you see something in it that you didn't see before. [A] Cain and Abel [B] The first 6 sons of Jacob [C] No man has ascended into heaven but he that descended from heaven [A] Cain and Abel

2 And Abel came to be a herder of sheep, but Cain became a cultivator of the ground. 3 And it came about at the expiration of some time that Cain proceeded to bring some fruits of the ground as an offering to Jehovah. 4 But as for Abel, he too brought some firstlings of his flock, even their fatty pieces. Now while Jehovah was looking with favor upon Abel and his offering, 5 he did not look with any favor upon Cain and upon his offering. And Cain grew hot with great anger, and his countenance began to fall. 6 At this Jehovah said to Cain: Why are you hot with anger and why has your countenance fallen? 7 If you turn to doing good, will there not be an exaltation? But if you do not turn to doing good, there is sin crouching at the entrance, and for you is its craving; and will you, for your part, get the mastery over it? 8 After that Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go over into the field. So it came about that while they were in the field Cain proceeded to assault Abel his brother and kill him. (Genesis 4). This account is typical of the way in which the bible is written. Please therefore listen to the classroom lesson from the Word of God: Cain was a cultivator of the ground, so he brought some fruits of the ground. Abel was a herder of sheep so he brought a sheep. The question that the reader is supposed to ask is: What on earth was wrong with Cains sacrifice? The account is written so that at first sight it looks like God favored Abel over Cain out of partiality, having no good reason in justice. If that were the case then there would be no point in serving him, so if you like you can just write God off in Genesis chapter 4 (if you havent already done so as a result of his claims in Genesis 1 and 2 that is). Q: Why did God accept Abels sacrifice and yet reject Cains sacrifice? Most theologians give the following answers: A: Because Abel offered his sacrifice with faith, but Cain had the wrong attitude and offered his sacrifice without faith. Or even worse an answer of the type: A: Obviously Cain did not have any faith because look what he did after his sacrifice! Both of these answers are entirely wrong and all modern churches to our knowledge have spectacularly failed to answer this holy poser from God. This question is easy to answer if you understand what sacrifice is all about. In fact the question could just as well be phrased as: What is a sacrifice? To answer this, consider the famous words of Samuel: 22 To obey is better than a sacrifice, to pay attention than the fat of rams (1 Samuel 15). Obviously avoiding the sin that requires the sacrifice is better than sinning and then making a sacrifice to pay for that sin. So sacrifice comes about because of disobedience. So sacrifices existed to teach us about obedience. With this in mind ask yourself this next question... Q: How many unspecified sacrifices did God ever prescribe for the Jews? Or ask yourself this question... Q: Did God ever say to the sons of Israel bring along whatever you like and Ill judge your offering on its merit? A: None and No. Every sacrifice under the Law was precisely prescribed by God as to the offering itself, the day of offering and even the method of making the offering. Take for example the regulations for the festival of Weeks under the Law of Moses... 16 To the day after the seventh sabbath you should count, 50 days, and you must present a new grain offering to Jehovah. 17 Out of your dwelling places you should bring 2 loaves as a wave offering. Of 2 tenths of an ephah of fine flour they should prove to be. They should be baked leavened, as first ripe fruits to Jehovah. 18 And you must present along with the loaves 7 sound male lambs, each a year old, and one young bull and 2 rams. They should serve as a burnt offering to Jehovah along with their grain offering and their drink offerings as an offering

made by fire, of a restful odor to Jehovah. 19 And you must render up one kid of the goats as a sin offering and 2 male lambs, each a year old, as a communion sacrifice. 20 And the priest must wave them to and fro along with the loaves of the first ripe fruits, as a wave offering before Jehovah, along with the 2 male lambs. They should serve as something holy to Jehovah for the priest (Leviticus 23). As you can see the sacrifice was defined precisely by God. This was because he was trying to teach obedience through sacrifice, he was not trying to teach sacrifice itself. For example if God specified a kid of the goats, and someone brought along a whole herd of cattle, would that be acceptable? Or if God stipulated an unblemished lamb, and someone presented a Picasso, a Ferrari and a prize winning Dalmatian to the high priest, how far would that get him? If God stipulated a turtle dove and someone brought along the rights to the whole Beatles back catalogue, would that work for God? The reason that God does not explicitly say why he rejected Cains sacrifice and accepted Abels sacrifice is that if you understand what sacrifice is supposed to be about, and if you credit God with being fair, you will work out for yourself that Cain offered the wrong sacrifice. The point is that God wants you to think about it and work it out for yourself. And if you are not prepared to do that, then he does not want to show you his true love and he does not want to show you his true justice. God does not want to explain himself to his enemies, he wants to explain himself only to his friends. Because his enemies abuse divine knowledge for their own benefit. So he keeps them in the dark to lessen their destructive effects. This was also why Jesus said to his disciples at one point: You can either drink my blood or take a hike! 53 Accordingly Jesus said to them: Most truly I say to you: Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in yourselves (John 6). He knew that such a statement was revolting to the Jews under Law, but he made no qualification that in fact they would have only to drink wine which represents his blood, because he was testing them to weed out those who had seen all of his miracles but continued to put no faith in him. John 6 was a faith test by Jesus of his disciples. Genesis 4 is a love test by God of the reader. Now modern churches do not understand sacrifice to God. They understand self sacrifice, which is giving God what they want to give him, but they do not understand sacrifice to God, which is giving God want he wants to be given. God could not possibly have accepted Abels sacrifice unless Abel had offered him precisely what he had prescribed, and on the correct day. So since God did accept Abels sacrifice, we know that he must have stipulated to the pair of them that they should both bring: 4 Some firstlings of the flock even their fatty pieces (Genesis 4). Cain brought 'some fruits of the ground'. That was not what God asked for, so he rejected it. That is the end of the matter. But in fact the ground was cursed due to Adam, so Cain added insult to disobedience and offered to God the fruits of his fathers disobedience! 17 And to Adam he said: Because you listened to your wife's voice and took to eating from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, 'You must not eat from it,' cursed is the ground on your account. In pain you will eat its produce all the days of your life (Genesis 3). One might also have a look at Genesis 5, the subsequent chapter, in one's attempts to understand Genesis 4. If so then one will find: 29 And he proceeded to call his name Noah, saying: This one will bring us comfort from our work and from the pain of our hands resulting from the ground which Jehovah has cursed (Genesis 5). Aha! So Cain offered fruits of the cursed ground to be precise. This does not mean that the fruits themselves were cursed. For sons of Adam were all vegetarians, eating these very fruits, until after the flood when God said to Noah (since there wasnt much vegetation around): 3 Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to you (Genesis 9). When Noah came out of the ark he made a sacrifice of some of the clean beasts to God, who responded as follows:

21 And Jehovah began to smell a restful odor, and so Jehovah said in his heart: Never again shall I call down evil upon the ground on man's account, because the inclination of the heart of man is bad from his youth up; and never again shall I deal every living thing a blow just as I have done (Genesis 8). At this point sons of Adam became carnivorous. After the flood the earth was no longer cursed, the flood baptized the earth as it were. So Cains sacrifice was not cursed but it was seriously substandard, for the poor quality of the produce of the ground was in fact a punishment on men, and a cause of suffering and pain for them, and here Cain is offering what God was using to punish him personally, back to God!! But that blooper was not why the sacrifice was rejected. It was rejected quite simply because it was the wrong sacrifice. Furthermore men are incapable of judging faith, we can only judge works. So we are simply not in a position to judge either Cain or Abel as to their faith. In fact under the law of works, if you absolutely hated God and the high priest and your brother and had just finished bullying your entire family yet brought along the correct sacrifice, possibly to show off to your peers, then your sins were forgiven. The purpose of Sacrifice to God is to humiliate the sacrificer and to glorify God. One does not bring to the altar of God ones latest screenplay or the fruits of ones commercial success, in order to get a pat on the back or an Oscar or the Queens award for industry or the medal of freedom from the High Priest. One brings instead something pointing forward to the sacrifice of Jesus, so that God can give him the Oscar that he deserves. As for our efforts, they are not worthy of consideration when compared to the sacrifice and love and righteousness of the Christ and his father. [B] The first 6 sons of Jacob Here is the Genesis account of the birth of the first 6 sons of Jacob. 31 When Jehovah came to see that Leah was hated, he then opened her womb, but Rachel was barren. 32 And Leah became pregnant and brought a son to birth and then called his name Reuben, for she said: It is because Jehovah has looked upon my wretchedness, in that now my husband will begin to love me. 33 And she became pregnant again and brought a son to birth and then said: It is because Jehovah has listened, in that I was hated and so he gave me also this one. Hence she called his name Simeon. 34 And she became pregnant yet again and brought a son to birth and then said: Now this time my husband will join himself to me, because I have borne him 3 sons. His name was therefore called Levi. 35 And she became pregnant once more and brought a son to birth and then said: This time I shall laud Jehovah. She therefore called his name Judah. After that she left off giving birth (Genesis 29). 1 When Rachel came to see that she had borne nothing to Jacob, Rachel got jealous of her sister and began to say to Jacob: Give me children or otherwise I shall be a dead woman. 2 At this Jacob's anger burned against Rachel and he said: Am I in the place of God, who has held back the fruit of the belly from you? 3 So she said: Here is my slave girl Bilhah. Have relations with her, that she may give birth upon my knees and that I, even I, may get children from her. 4 With that she gave him Bilhah her maidservant as wife, and Jacob had relations with her. 5 And Bilhah became pregnant and in time bore Jacob a son. 6 Then Rachel said: God has acted as my judge and has also listened to my voice, so that he gave me a son. That is why she called his name Dan. 7 And Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant, became pregnant once more and in time bore a second son to Jacob. 8 Then Rachel said: With strenuous wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister. I have also come off winner! So she called his name Naphtali. 9 When Leah came to see that she had left off giving birth, she proceeded to take Zilpah her maidservant and to give her to Jacob as wife (Genesis 30). At first sight it looks like Leah gave birth to Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah, then Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant, gave birth to Dan and Naphtali. As a result all Jewish theologians and all Christian churches today have the birth order of these sons as Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Dan and Naphtali. But there is one little piece of the puzzle that this interpretation misses. When Bilhah gave birth to her second son Rachel said: With strenuous wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister. I have also come off winner! Agreed, most but not all bible interpretations are made by men, and we are not normally that interested in the noises women make when they are giving birth, or in the things that they say during that process, which may not be very

complimentary. But it was not Bilhah who called her second born child Naphtali, it was Rachel. And Rachel herself did not give birth being unable at that time to conceive. Incidentally according to the law back then (before the law of Moses), Bilhah, the maidservant, was owned by Rachel, and so Rachel also owned her children, and so could name them herself. So here is the 64 million dollar question: Why would Rachel think that she was the winner in the procreation race with her sister at the birth of Naphtali? Answer: She had one more child than Leah at that time. Obviously Rachel would have realized that she was losing the baby race straight after Reuben was born. She would not have needed to see 4 children from Leah before she started competing with her sister. So the birth order must have been... Reuben, Dan, Naphtali, Simeon, Levi, Judah. In this way Rachel drew level at one all with the birth of Dan, and then went one baby ahead at 2:1 with the birth of Naphtali. At this point she was in the lead, she was the winner for a while. But then Leah came back with Simeon, the equalizer and it was 2 all. Then with the births of Levi and Judah, Leah went 4:2 ahead. These are the kinds of details we must look for in the bible for even the omissions tell a story! [C] No man has ascended into heaven but he that descended from heaven 13 Moreover, no man has ascended into heaven but he that descended from heaven, the Son of man. If no man has ascended into heaven except the son of man who descended, then the son of man had already ascended before Jesus said this statement. So Jesus, the son of man, had ascended to heaven before he descended as Jesus. But if he had ascended to heaven before he descended as Jesus, then he must have descended as someone else before that ascension in order that he could actually ascend. For it is impossible to ascend into heaven without first descending from heaven. So Jesus had descended from heaven before and then ascended back and then he descended again and made the statement above. In other words, when Jesus came to preach to the Jews and to give his life for all mankind, this was at least his second visit to us. In other words he had come here before as someone else, before Jesus. We will provide the secrets to this understanding for you later. This information is an earthquake, but it is merely one step of logic away from John 3:13 above. Why has mankind been unable to take that step? Because we throw away our logic when we join a church. We believe the lie perpetrated by control freak priests, that faith involves taking things on trust from a priest. It most certainly does not. It involves serving God with one's God given mind. Search and see if any church other than the Lords' Witnesses has ever understood this one sentence! Conclusion The bible is brilliantly written and every little detail does contain a great spiritual gem, hidden for thousands of years. As Solomon said in his second Proverb... 4 if you keep seeking for it as for silver, and as for hid treasures you keep searching for it, 5 in that case you will understand the fear of Jehovah, and you will find the very knowledge of God (Proverbs 2). The point is that you have to dig, you have to think logically about every scripture. God did not explicitly say why he rejected Cain's sacrifice, he did not directly list the birth order of Jacob's first 6 kids and Jesus did not flatly say that he had been down here before as somebody else, but the bible does say all three of these things if you read it with your whole mind. Hopefully this section will help the reader to lay bare the exuberance of the literary genius of our God. Hopefully he will begin to grasp the extent of the linguistic dexterity employed in his perfect book. For the king of love is a teacher whose moral finesse breaks your heart whilst his incisive metaphors wrench your neurons into divine activity. The very activity that Adam first taught to pre-adamic man, whom he was sent to save. So the inescapable conclusion is that God wants us to think really hard and really deeply about every word of his book.

He wants us to look behind the scriptures, to look through the scriptures, to look ahead of the scriptures to look beneath the scriptures and to look above the scriptures, to misquote General Norman Schwarzkopf in the first Gulf War. This is what a spiritual being is (not Stormy Norman, but a person who sees through the physical to the underlying spiritual truth). Spirituality is looking behind the physical with the eyes of the mind to the spiritual cause. The bible, by its very construction, is teaching us to see beyond the physical. This divine teaching method does not only apply to the holy book. It applies to the entirety of creation as Isaac Newton believed. Let us therefore present you with two key examples from nature of this type of thinking here. Why did God create Cancer? Why does God permit the terrible disease of Cancer to torture to mutilate and to kill his children whom he loves so much? Is it because God is a sick and cruel murderer? Is it because God is not very good at genetic engineering and made a few mistakes in our construction so that our DNA goes haywire occasionally? Or is it because any form of corruption (financial, moral, political etc) is ultimately terminal to society, if not eradicated completely. And we all know someone who has died of cancer, which is cellular corruption, but have we really learned this lesson! Does corruption have a future? So please understand that the death of a loved one to this disease is not a waste. In fact it is just as heroic and significant as a soldier dying in battle. The soldier died for his country or for his beliefs. The cancer victim dies for your beliefs and for the future of your society, which future is the Kingdom of God. That is the big picture. It is our understanding that God wishes to turn your memories of such deaths and of such suffering into an unforgettable moral lesson that will prevent you having any part in cancerous activity in the future. For the cancer victim himself, when he is resurrected, he will know for a fact that corruption is terminal. Whenever he sees it in others and whenever he is tempted to indulge in it himself, he will recall its effect on his first body and say. I am not going there ever again!

Fifth Lesson - What Exactly is Baptism?

What exactly is Baptism? In Christian churches all over the world they say: I baptize you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. This is taken from Jesus' famous last words to his apostles recorded by Matthew: 19 Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit (Matthew 28 NWT). How many times have we heard or read this? Many, many, many times. We have heard it in English from Protestants and in Latin from Catholics. But how many times have we understood what it is saying? Never yet once. Because, as in the case of Matthew 24:36 (The classic mistranslation which has prevented sincere Christians believing that God would tell them when this system ends). The above is an incorrect translation. It was corrupted by Catholic theologians to support their false trinity doctrine which will be proven in a later lesson. Every single existing Greek Manuscript of the bible containing this verse (the Siniaticus, the Alexandrinus, The Vatican B, The Codex Rescriptus the Codex Bezae and all the relevant Papyri) has the Greek word ' ' meaning 'into' rather than the Greek word ' ' meaning 'in'. Any Greek Interlinear Bible (Such as Kingdom Interlinear Bible, from the Watchtower or the Greek-English Interlinear of Brown and Comfort), translates verse 19 as below: 19 Having gone your way therefore, make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28 KI). Baptizing them into the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit

(Matthew 28:19, KI from Wescott & Hort, and Nestle Aland 26th ed.) . The Greek preposition for into is

The Greek preposition for in is , and it takes the dative and it takes the accusative

The Literal bible (J P Green, www.sovgracepub.com) also available from this site as a download translates this verse as: 19 Then, having gone, disciple all nations, baptizing them into the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy spirit (Matthew 28 - Green's Literal Translation - GLT). May J P Green be blessed for his unpresumptuous fidelity. Now baptizing someone in the name of Jesus, is very different from baptizing someone into the name of Jesus. Baptizing in the name of Jesus is an action done with Jesus' authority. For example the statement, 'in the name of the President I command you to open this door', is a command made with the authority of the President. But the statement, I have entered into the name of the President, means you have either become the first lady or been adopted into his immediate family. In the former case it is an action with his authority, in the latter case it is the entry into his family name. So in fact in the latter case of 'into' we are talking about three different baptisms, into three different family names, whereas, in the former case of 'in' it could be one baptism with the authority of all three of the names. In fact this one baptism three name authority interpretation is how the whole Christian world currently regards this scripture, and all of us believe that we are baptized in water, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, rather like Inspector Clouseau arrests people in the name of the law. In the case of Clouseau his incompetence was hysterical. In the case of all Christians the incompetence is lamentable and it is unforgivable. For example, we read: 5 He is the one whom God has chosen out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of Jehovah (Deuteronomy 18). 32 And he went on to build the stones into an altar in the name of Jehovah and to make a trench, of about the area sowed with two seah measures of seed, all around the altar (1 Kings 18). So it is apparent that 'in the name of' has the meaning of in the authority of or 'with the authority of', but 'into the name of' has a very narrow meaning, namely that the candidate ends up wearing that name as a family name. The candidate takes that name for himself as a kind of spiritual surname. As you will see in the section on who Jesus is, being baptized into the name of Jehovah makes you a God to be worshipped. And only Jesus has achieved this baptism so far. Whereas any one of us can do something with Jehovah's authority. In fact Paul says: 17 Whatever it is that you do, in word or in work, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, thanking God the Father through him (Colossians 3). In other words keep his law in all you do. Incidentally this does not mean that when we thank God we should do it through Jesus. It means that whatever we do, we should bear in mind that we are doing it in the name of Jesus, and act accordingly, and acting in this way is thanking God through Jesus. So of course we do baptize people in water in the name of Jesus, just like we do the preaching work in his name, just like we wash our dishes in his name. We make cups of tea in the name of Lord Jesus. But this however is not what Jesus commanded at Matthew 28:19, he was commanding baptisms into 3 different names. Therefore he was commanding 3 different baptisms. This is the point where the light turns on and the veil of negligence is lifted. For being baptized into someone's name is gaining another surname which is getting married spiritually which is entering into a covenant. So now from one tiny word 'into' rather than the mistranslation 'in' we have related baptisms to covenants. A baptism is a cleansing for entrance into a covenant. There is no instance in the bible of the phrase 'in the name of the holy spirit', no one said: I order you in the name of the holy spirit to get up and walk, or suchlike. Only God can do this, because the holy spirit is his wife, and not anybody else's wife. So he alone has authority over her and men do not. No Christian is recorded as doing anything and verbally proclaiming it to be in the name of the holy spirit. In fact both Peter and Paul did do something in the name of the holy spirit (they resurrected a dead man), but neither one of them is recorded as being presumptuous enough to verbalize this. 39 At that Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they led him up into the upper chamber; and all the widows presented themselves to him weeping and exhibiting many inner garments and outer garments that Dorcas used to make while she was with them. 40 But Peter put everybody outside and, bending his knees, he prayed, and, turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, rise!" She opened her eyes and, as she caught sight of Peter, she sat up. 41 Giving her his hand, he raised her up, and he called the holy ones and the widows and presented her alive (Acts 9).

9 Seated at the window, a certain young man named Eutychus fell into a deep sleep while Paul kept talking on, and, collapsing in sleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked up dead. 10 But Paul went downstairs, threw himself upon him and embraced him and said: Stop raising a clamor, for his soul is in him. 11 He now went upstairs and began the meal and took food, and after conversing for quite a while, until daybreak, he at length departed. 12 So they took the boy away alive and were comforted beyond measure (Acts 20). These resurrections were performed by the holy spirit, with the authority of God through the prayers of Peter and Paul. Neither of the two said to God's wife: Resurrect this one for me love! They begged Jesus in prayer who then asked his father's wife, the holy spirit, to resurrect. For completeness we now consider all the other 7 (4 then 3 below) references in the bible to baptism in or into or upon the name of somebody or something, are as follows (The Greek preposition for upon is and it takes the dative ): Let him be baptized each of you in the name of Jesus Christ (Acts 2:38 Kingdom Interlinear from the Wescott and Hort Greek manuscript, based upon the oldest know large Greek text, the Vatican B). Let him be baptized each of you upon the name of Jesus Christ (Acts 2:38, Nestle Aland 26, based on the majority of known texts, not the oldest text). but having been baptized they were into the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts 8:16 KI & NA26) He commanded but them in the name Jesus Christ to be baptized (Acts 10:48 KI & NA26)

Having heard but they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts 19:5 KI & NA26)

The reader will notice that there is a discrepancy between the oldest Greek text which reads: In the name of Jesus Christ, and the newer texts which read: Upon the name of Jesus Christ. The two reading mean more or less the same thing however. In Acts 2 and Acts 8, the proselytes and the Samaritans respectively were baptized in water, not in spirit, so they were not baptized into the name of Jesus, which is a spirit baptism, but they were baptized with his authority in water - actually into the name of John the baptist, the father of the water baptism of the first church. The context of the last one above in Acts 19 is: 2 And he said to them: Did you receive holy spirit when you became believers? They said to him: Why we have never heard whether there is a holy spirit. 3 And he said into what therefore ( ) were you baptized. They said into the baptism of John. 4 Paul said: John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is in Jesus. 5 Having heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts 19). The Revised Standard Version (RSV) provides a fascinating insight into the trinity inspired mistranslation of in and into. It evidently needs a little more revision. it actually says: 2 And he said to them: Did you receive the holy spirit when you believed? And they said: No, we have never even heard that there is a holy spirit. 3 And he said into what then ( ) were you baptized. They said into ( ) John's baptism. 4 And Paul said: John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is Jesus. 5 On hearing this, they were baptized in ( ) the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts 19 - RSV).

So the RSV correctly translates the first two incidences of the Greek word ( ) as 'into' in circumstances which have little doctrinal significance to simple Christian belief, but then mistranslate the third incidence as 'in', in the phrase 'baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus which has great doctrinal significance to simple Christian belief. The Ephesians in Acts 19 were not actually baptized by Paul into the name of Jesus, because Paul was not a new covenant saint. Paul merely conferred the gifts of the spirit upon them by laying his hands on them. They were baptized into his name by the angels as soon as they heard about Jesus, and so were able to put faith in him. One cannot be baptized into the name of Jesus without putting faith in him 17 For Christ dispatched me, not to go baptizing, but to go on declaring the good news (1 Corinthians 1). Now there is a scripture which looks like it is contradicting this, namely: 12 Furthermore, there is no salvation in anyone else, for there is not another name under ( ) heaven that has been given among men by which we must get saved (Acts 4). This scripture appears to be saying, that there is only one name into which we can ever be baptized. But the situation is more complex than that. Everlasting salvation is all dependant on Jesus' ransom sacrifice. He saves us all everlastingly, being the mediator of the angelic ransom covenant (ARC) which is the master covenant for angelic life between God and mankind which we will demonstrate for you in a later lesson. Jesus is the father of all who are saved. Because if you are saved temporarily by the master covenants into the new system, but then, through sin, you die, you end up not saved. We all end up either baptized into his name or dead. But he is not the only name into which we can be baptized, because the angelic ransom covenant has many subcovenants. And so do the other master covenants. For example, the sons of Israel who left Egypt were baptized into the name of Moses: and all into the Moses they were baptized in the cloud and in the sea (1 Corinthians 10:2 KI). and all into the Moses they were baptized in the cloud and in the sea (1 Corinthians 10:2 NA26) Paul mentions a baptism into his name with sarcasm... 13 The Christ exists divided. Paul was not impaled for you, was he? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul? 14 I am thankful I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15 so that no one may say that you were baptized into my name. 16 Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas. As for the rest, I do not know whether I baptized anybody else (1 Corinthians 1). In the literal meaning, no people were baptized into Paul's name in this account. But in the greater meaning people were baptized into Paul's name for Paul actually mediated a covenant. The point here is that Paul used words showing that baptism is into a name. Jesus becomes our eternal father, rather than Adam. Jesus regains what Adam lost, for us: 6 For there has been a child born to us; there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9) The Mighty God, Jesus, is a Prince to the King who is the almighty God Jehovah. Jehovah is king (to be) of the kingdom of God, as one can easily infer from the kingdom's name. Jesus is a prince who became a King in 1914Tishri at the end of the Gentile Times. He rules over the sons of the ICC for 93 years in this system which ends on 2008Nisan14 as you will see in the seventh lesson. Then he sits on his father's throne ruling as King, throughout the 1,000 year Kingdom of God. His eternal fathering is effected through the ARC which is referred to by Paul in the literal meaning when he says: 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself a corresponding ransom for all (1 Timothy 2).

So people are baptized into the name of the mediator of a covenant, becoming sons of this mediator as regards their spiritual life, their angelic life, their everlasting life, their second life. And this process, baptism, is a cleansing for entrance into the covenant mediated by the mediator whose name one is baptized into. The Disgrace of the Christian Churches and the Lies and Corruption of Athanasius It is the trinity doctrine that has denied mankind any knowledge of the relationship between baptisms and covenants disclosed above. One does not need to be a Greek Scholar to see that the Greek word ' ' Matthew 28:19 should be translated as 'into'. It is truly a disgrace that this nonsense doctrine has fooled us all for 1,700 years. Here is the definition of the 3rd century logical con trick which has blinded Christianity... The Trinity is the term employed to signify the central doctrine of the Christian religion -- the truth that in the unity of the Godhead there are Three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, these Three Persons being truly distinct one from another. Thus, in the words of the Athanasian Creed: "The Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three Gods but one God." In this Trinity of Persons the Son is begotten of the Father by an eternal generation, and the Holy Spirit proceeds by an eternal procession from the Father and the Son. Yet, notwithstanding this difference as to origin, the Persons are co-eternal and co-equal: all alike are uncreated and omnipotent. This, the Church teaches, is the revelation regarding God's nature which Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came upon earth to deliver to the world: and which she proposes to man as the foundation of her whole dogmatic system. This is a false doctrine adopted by the council of churches at Nicea in 325 AD. The Catholic Enclyclopedia http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15047a.htm, says regarding it's 'proof' that the 'trinity' is correct: II. PROOF OF DOCTRINE FROM SCRIPTURE A. New Testament The evidence from the Gospels culminates in the baptismal commission of Matthew 28:20. It is manifest from the narratives of the Evangelists that Christ only made the great truth known to the Twelve step by step. First He taught them to recognize in Himself the Eternal Son of God. When His ministry was drawing to a close, He promised that the Father would send another Divine Person, the Holy Spirit, in His place. Finally after His resurrection, He revealed the doctrine in explicit terms, bidding them go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matthew 28:18). The force of this passage is decisive. That "the Father" and "the Son" are distinct Persons follows from the terms themselves, which are mutually exclusive. The mention of the Holy Spirit in the same series, the names being connected one with the other by the conjunctions "and ... and" is evidence that we have here a Third Person co-ordinate with the Father and the Son, and excludes altogether the supposition that the Apostles understood the Holy Spirit not as a distinct Person, but as God viewed in His action on creatures. The phrase "in the name" (eis to onoma) affirms alike the Godhead of the Persons and their unity of nature. So the Catholic 'proof' relies on Matthew 28:19 meaning: baptizing them in the name of... But it does not mean this. What we find very distasteful is that the catholics even quote the Greek scripture: (eis to onoma) yet still mistranslate it as "in the name", when it says "into the name". So please beloved reader, pick up a Greek Dictionary, ask your favorite Greek Scholar. Keep on seeking and ye shall find. A Shorter Greek Lexicon by Liddell and Scott is the famous one, but the Analytical Lexicon of the New Testament by William Mounce is better for New Testament Greek in our opinion. You will find that 'eis', meaning 'into' takes the accusative case and 'en' meaning 'in' takes the dative case and 'onoma' is in the accusative case. That really is the end of the trinity, not that it even had a beginning because it is defined in such a way as to be non-existent. You will see how inane this whole concept is as you progress through these pages. You will also note that there is absolutely no mention of the trinity throughout the entire bible except the italicized sections that have been added to the scriptures by those who espouse it! May we draw the readers attention to the last sentence in the quote from the Catholic Encyclopedia above, which reveals that the mistranslation of Matthew 28:19 (sic) supports 'the Godhead of persons and their unity of nature'. This is Catholic theobabble dreamt up in support of the trinity doctrine. A doctrine which condemns mankind to be ignorant idolaters of a non existent contrivance of crafty theologians, who have succeeded in playing God with the vast majority of 'Christians' for 1,700 years, by using this cunning diversion. This will be exposed in much more detail in a later lesson.

Sixth Lesson - How is One Born Again?

Nicodemus said to him: How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter into the womb of his mother a second time and be born, can he? (John 3:4) . Well literally, no, of course he cannot. But symbolically, yes, that is precisely how one is born again. Born from the womb of his heavenly mother, Gods wife, the holy spirit. It is being born as an angel in heaven. Nicodemus asked a Yes/No Question . What has been born from the flesh is flesh, and what has been born from the spirit is spirit (John 3:6) . What has been born from fleshly women is men and women of flesh and what has been born from the spirit woman, the holy spirit, is angels. When you are born again God creates an angel in heaven through his wife, the holy spirit, for you, Amen. And Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul (Genesis 2:7). The breath of life was not from the ground, it was from the heaven. Two nostrils, two vessels for holy spirit, two vessels for life. The vessel of dust, the human body or "soul", and the vessel of spirit, the angelic body or "soul" for neither vehicle whether angelic or human is a living soul without a spirit. The Hebrew word occurs both in the singular 'nose' (Genesis 2:7) and in the plural 'nostrils' (2 Kings 19:28 NIVHEOT) in the scriptures. Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs. His spirit goes out, he goes back to his ground, in that day his thoughts do perish (Psalm 146:3,4). The man formed out of dust goes back to his ground, the breath of life blown into his nostrils, is spirit, and his spirit which goes out. But this spirit is not going out in the sense of a flame being extinguished. No, his thoughts do perish, but his spirit does not perish, it goes out, out of his human body and either into an angelic vehicle or Gehenna. For the human body is effectively vehicle for the spirit. And do not become fearful of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; but rather be in fear of him that can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna (Matthew 10:28). Next he said to them: "Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do a good deed or to do a bad deed, to save or to kill a soul?" But they kept silent (Mark 3:4). Man can kill a human soul, but he cannot kill the angelic soul. A soul in the sense of Mark 3 is the human soul, or body, the human vehicle for the spirit. The soul in the sense of Matthew 10:28 is your angelic soul, the angelic vehicle for your spirit. There are two different souls being talked about in Matthew 10 and Mark 3, and these two correspond with the two nostrils of Adam. The human soul can be killed, the angelic soul cannot. Do look, answer me, Oh Jehovah my God. Make my eyes shine that I may not fall asleep in death (Psalm 13:3). Then, bending his knees, he cried out with a strong voice: Lord, do not charge this sin against them. And after saying this he fell asleep [in death] (Acts 7:60) . What actually falls asleep in death? It is not the body, it is not a human soul (a living human body), it is the angelic soul, the angel which effectively possessed the body, providing a non physical vehicle for your spirit which falls asleep. He emptied himself, and took a slave's form, and came to be in the likeness of men (Philippians 2:7). Michael emptied His angelic soul (vehicle) and left him asleep in heaven, and entered Jesus, taking a slave's form. He took the 'form' or body away from the non adamic human Jesus (Immanuel), who was a slave in this sense, at His baptism by John. There was an empty angelic body (Michael's) in heaven all through the ministry of Jesus, and there was a sleeping angel containing the human Jesus (Immanuel's) spirit after his baptism which was his physical death. This is technically how God overcame the death of Jesus on the stake, and resurrected him as an angel. It is the same with all humans, we all have an empty angelic body (vehicle) throughout our judicial lives (after we have been born again), and a sleeping angel at our deaths. It is sown a physical body, it is raised up a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual one

(1 Corinthians 15:44). Raised up as in from the judicially dead (born again). Sanctification is the birth of the angelic body in heaven for the man. Becoming one of God's son, means having an empty angel waiting, with your name on it, in this way one gets a name! If you die clean in the flesh then you are put into a temporary angel with no name on it, and when resurrected you are back to a plain old human with no angel. Consequently if anyone is in union with Christ, he is a new creation. The old things passed away, look! new things have come into existence (2 Corinthians 5:17). For neither is circumcision anything nor is uncircumcision but a new creation [is something] (Galatians 6:15). The circumcision of the spirit is a new creation, coming into union with Christ, i.e. being baptized into his name (a marriage union) is a new creation, in fact the creation of an angel, which is named at the circumcision of the spirit as is the Jewish son at the circumcision of the flesh. To put this in another way let us suppose that you died, and that as many believe, your character was stored in Gods memory. If God resurrected you by sticking your character back into another body which was a replica of your old one, then would you still be You or would he merely be a perfect copy of yourself? A clone. If he was merely a clone, then you would actually still be dead, and would have not benefited at all from your own resurrection. Although no one would actually know whether the clone was you or not, since it would be a perfect copy. In order for your resurrection to be of some use to you, there needs to be a continuity of your life between your first human body and your second human or angelic body. This continuity can only be provided angelically because God possesses no other souls for the human spirit, other than the human soul and the angelic soul. Solomon referred to this situation in Ecclesiastes: 1 Remember, now, your Grand Creator in the days of your young manhood, before the calamitous days proceed to come, or the years have arrived when you will say: I have no delight in them [because your body is failing with age]; 2 [remember him] before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars grow dark, and the clouds return, after the downpour [all weather is perceived as bad, this is depression. Grumpy old man syndrome]; 3 in the day when the keepers of the house tremble ["house" being your human body - you get the shakes due to nervous system degradation], and the men of vital energy have bent themselves [bent over with old age], and the grinding women have quit working because they [their teeth] have become few , and the ladies seeing at the windows have found it dark [eyesight begins to fail]; 4 and the doors onto the street have been closed [you don't get around so much], when the sound of the grinding mill becomes low [you are going deaf at low frequencies], and one gets up at the sound of a bird [you sleep more lightly], and all the daughters of song sound low [more deafness at high frequencies]. 5 Also, they have become afraid merely at what is high, and there are terrors in the way. And the almond tree carries blossoms [the last blossom of the year in Shebat - you are a bit past full bloom], and the grasshopper drags itself along [no longer able to jump], and the desire is extinguished [or caper berry bursts - capers are supposed to stimulate your appetite and desire], because man is walking to his long-lasting house [his angelic soul] and the wailers have marched around in the street [funeral attendees]; 6 [remember him] before the silver cord [the link to your heavenly host] is removed, and the golden bowl gets crushed [the brain that holds the spirit ceases functioning. Gold because the spirit resides their first and the cord is silver because the spirit goes down that cord second into your long lasting house], and the jar at the spring is broken [respiration stops], and the waterwheel for the cistern has been crushed [the heart stops pumping]. 7 And the dust returns to the earth [the body decomposes] just as it happened to be and the spirit itself returns to the [true] God who gave it [who puts it into a sleeping angel] (Ecclesiastes 12). The long lasting house is his angelic body, the wailers are the funeral attendees, the golden bowl and jar and the waterwheel are his human body (it's all plumbing for blood which represents the spirit). The spirit returns to the true God, the silver cord is his lifeline of continuity between the human soul and the angelic soul, it is his umbilical cord with the heavenly woman, the holy spirit. It is Gods means of conquering death. When the umbilical cord is broken the child is born. Gold precedes silver in value, and gold precedes silver in time in this and other bible symbolisms]. The gold body, which the man has first, is the human one and the silver body is the angelic one. The silver cord is the savior of the spirit of a person. This spirit is the spirit/breath of life that God breathed into Adam. This spirit of life, one's spirit, one's personality, persists even after death, returning to God, via the silver cord, being exhaled in fact. One's very breathing confirms this several times a minute. God either puts it in a sleeping angel or in Gehenna (where you soul has no vehicle). The sleeping angel, a spirit creature, whether named, conceived in the heavenly woman's womb, or just designated for an unrighteous man who will be resurrected, is a living soul, just like an unborn

fetus. It actually has the same spirit of life as the human soul, for God breathed into both of Adam's nostrils the same spirit. Therefore the human is in fact angelically possessed, from his sanctification, by his named sleeping angel. Those who are born again or spirit baptized from heaven have two souls, but only one spirit. This living angel provides the continuity of his spirit symbolized by the silver thread, through death which preserves him. When Adam was created, God created at the same time his angel. This [hope] we have as an anchor for the soul, both sure and firm, and it enters within the curtain (Hebrews 6:19). So to sum up, the soul is a vehicle for your spirit. There are two types of soul, fleshly and angelic. These are the two vehicles for the spirit of a man. Before you die, your spirit is put into a sleeping angelic body by God. Then when you die, you merely become a sleeping angel. You are effectively angelically possessed by an empty angel before you die. Those in the first death only are in fact alive from a second death standpoint since they are not in the second death, so they have an angelic soul, they are born again, although first dead, asleep in a temporary angel. John 3 tells is that everyone is born again, for even those in Gehenna do see the kingdom of God!

Seventh Lesson - The Three Baptisms

19 Having gone your way therefore, make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28 KI). We discovered in the previous section that these are 3 baptisms into the names of 3 mediators. But who is the Father? Who is the Son? And who is the mediator of the baptism into the name of the holy spirit? The Baptism into the name of the Father 19 Having gone your way therefore, make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28 KI). This father cannot be God because he himself says: 8 I am Jehovah. That is my name, and to no one else shall I give my own glory, neither my praise to graven images (Isaiah 42). 7 For a man ought not to have his head covered, as he is God's image and glory, but the woman is man's glory (1 Corinthians 11). We are God's glory and so we exhibit God's glory as Jesus did and does and as the Holy Spirit does, for he is the glory of his father and she is the glory of her husband who is God. But none of these takes God's glory in the sense that they represent that it is their own glory. Moses made this mistake once... 10 After that Moses and Aaron called the congregation together before the crag, and he proceeded to say to them: Hear, now, you rebels! Is it from this crag that we shall bring out water for you? 11 With that Moses lifted his hand up and struck the crag with his rod twice, and much water began to come out, and the assembly and their beasts of burden began to drink. 12 Later Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron: Because you did not show faith in me to sanctify me before the eyes of the sons of Israel, therefore you will not bring this congregation into the land that I shall certainly give them (Numbers 20). Moses and Aaron failed to give the glory of the works that God did through them to God. Taking God's glory is blasphemy. So if the reader or the writer decided that they were baptized into the name of Jehovah himself, they effectively declare themselves to be equivalent to God in reputation. This is blasphemy. Not only this but then Jesus would be unable to have been given a name higher than the reader or the writers name, since we would both be wearing the highest name in the heavens, yet the scripture says: 9 For this very reason also God exalted him to a superior position and kindly gave him the name that is above every [other] name (Philippians 2).

Plainly it is fine to be baptized in the name of Jehovah, and we all are, but it is impossible to be baptized into God's own name unless we get the name that Jesus got. Now here is the wisdom of a certain 16 year old sister, who got this huge understanding from Jehovah. Because really what is the name that is above every other name? Not 'a' name, but 'the' name. Well it is 'Jehovah'. So Jesus was baptized into Gods name when he died. That makes him a God, a God to be worshipped. The Holy Spirit was the priest for this baptism. It is the greatest of all of our understandings. Jesus is God, a mighty God, a God to be worshipped, like Jehovah. But he is not almighty God. He has been elevated from a creation to a true God. He has also given up his angelic body for ransoming purposes and is now resident in a spirit body like God's spirit body, presumably somewhat different from an angelic body. This is a big understanding and we are not going any further with it here. We have enough to get through to you as it is. But we do come from a family of Gods, and our destiny is to be Gods, yes, Gods like Jehovah - see I27. 11 Also, I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to you. Holy Father, watch over them on account of your own name which you have given me, in order that they may be one just as we are. 12 When I was with them I used to watch over them on account of your own name which you have given me; and I have kept them, and not one of them is destroyed except the son of destruction, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled (John 17). Jesus said this on the Thursday Night, 33Nisan14, just before he went into the garden of Gethsemane to be betrayed by Judas. This shows that Jesus took Jehovah's name, having been promised it when he made the ARC with God and having validated that covenant when he died on the stake. He also left the world when Nisan 14 began and went into the heart of the earth for 3 days and 3 nights (which means the centre of the organization of God - see U158). This is why Jesus said: I am no longer in the world. His ministry had ended. Another reason that 'the father' cannot be God is that baptism is a cleanliness for entrance into a covenant with God mediated by a mediator. But a mediator is himself a covenanter with God, and God cannot have a covenant with himself (and therefore mediate with himself). Paul declares this: 20 Now there is no mediator where only one person is concerned, but God is only one (Galatians 3). So the Father cannot be God, and the above is of course a great proof that Jesus is not God. So who is this Father into whose name we are all baptized? Well it is Father Abraham, the patriarch of the Abrahamic system, father of the sons of the 1AC! 25 You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God covenanted with your forefathers, saying to Abraham: And in your seed all the families of the earth will be blessed (Acts 3). 16 ...He is the father of us all, 17 just as it is written: I have appointed you a father of many nations. This was in the sight of the one in whom he had faith, even of God, who makes the dead alive and calls the things that are not as though they are (Romans 4). Abraham is a father by covenant of everyone who has faith in God. This is explained by Paul in Romans 4. IT is well known that Abraham is the father of every circumcised person who ever lived. Even today he is that father of every Muslim and every Jew who is circumcised. But the fleshly circumcision due to genetic descendency from Abraham is merely an archetype, a physical representation of the cleanliness achieve through faith by all the sons of Abraham through faith. These are the people who exhibit the faith in God that Abraham had and thereby are constituted his sons through the First Abrahamic Covenant, the 1AC. The blessing of this covenant is that you gain citizenship of the Kingdom of God. So Abraham's fleshly family are the circumcised ones, but his spiritual family are the faithful ones, and it is his spiritual family that inherits the Kingdom of God, not his physical family. In fact Abraham's physical family tree is God's giant parable for salvation. The water baptism, the holy spirit baptism, faith perfected works and works perfected faith What kind of baptism puts you into the 1AC, the covenant which does not involve you joining any church or religion? Abraham himself had his faith counted as righteousness before he was circumcised... 5 He now brought him outside and said: Look up, please, to the heavens and count the stars, if you are possibly able to count them. And he went on to say to him: So your seed will become. 6 And he put faith in Jehovah; and he proceeded to count it to him as righteousness (Genesis 15).

1 That being so, what shall we say about Abraham our forefather according to the flesh? 2 If, for instance, Abraham were declared righteous as a result of works, he would have ground for boasting; but not with God. 3 For what does the scripture say? Abraham exercised faith in Jehovah, and it was counted to him as righteousness. 4 Now to the man that works the pay is counted, not as an undeserved kindness, but as a debt. 5 On the other hand, to the man that does not work but puts faith in him who declares the ungodly one righteous, his faith is counted as righteousness. 6 Just as David also speaks of the happiness of the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: 7 Happy are those whose lawless deeds have been pardoned [1AC - see I29] and whose sins have been covered [2AC/ICC]; 8 happy is the man whose sin Jehovah will by no means take into account [3AC/JAC]. 9 Does this happiness, then, come upon circumcised people or also upon uncircumcised people? For we say: His faith was counted to Abraham as righteousness. 10 Under what circumstances, then, was it counted? When he was in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. 11 And he received a sign, namely, circumcision, as a seal of the righteousness by the faith he had while in his uncircumcised state, that he might be the father of all those having faith while in uncircumcision, in order for righteousness to be counted to them; 12 and a father of circumcised offspring, not only to those who adhere to circumcision, but also to those who walk orderly in the footsteps of that faith while in the uncircumcised state which our father Abraham had. 13 For it was not through law that Abraham or his seed had the promise that he should be heir of a world, but it was through the righteousness by faith (Romans 4) Abraham was declared righteous by faith apart from works of law, he was declared righteous by faith before the Law of Moses came into existence. He took a test outside of God's law, outside of a true religion. Paul famously describes people in this situation as being a law unto themselves... 13 For the hearers of law are not the ones righteous before God, but the doers of law will be declared righteous. 14 For whenever people of the nations that do not have law do by nature the things of the law, these people, although not having law, are a law unto themselves. 15 They are the very ones who demonstrate the matter of the law to be written in their hearts, while their conscience is bearing witness with them and, between their own thoughts, they are being accused or even excused. 16 This will be in the day when God through Christ Jesus judges the secret things of mankind, according to the good news I declare (Romans 2). Putting this whole jigsaw together; Abraham passed a test not of the law of God but of the law of his heart, which is the law of his conscience. In this way he was a law unto himself. He had to follow his conscience; he had to obey a secret law of works of his own making. This indeed is how God judges us all in the absence of the law of a true religion. But he was sealed due to his faith in God. This type of test is what we call 'faith perfected works'. If you are baptized into works then you are sealed by faith. Abraham kept his faith during the test on the works of his conscience, and therefore was sealed. To be sealed you need both the works and the faith. Sealing is finishing and passing the test of a baptism. Abraham was given the circumcision as a seal of his righteousness by faith (Romans 4:!1). Being sealed is being declared righteous, which again is the end of the baptism test. Once Abraham had passed he then became a kind of John the baptist figure for the 'baptism' of circumcision. The circumcision prefigures the washing clean of your conscience that begins the test of your conscience that you enter through the 1AC. This is a washing of your conscience from past sins. If you pass this test, keeping to your conscience, then you are sealed, i.e. declared righteous in the flesh, and you enter into the FRC. But you cannot obey your conscience without faith in God. Just as a 5 year old cannot continue to obey the rules of grammar and spelling without constant reference to his teacher. On the other hand if you are baptized into faith (as those who are spirit baptized are), then you are sealed by works, for faith without works is dead... 26 Indeed, as the body without spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead (James 2). So a baptism into faith is perfected by works and we call this type of test 'works perfected faith'. A test of works perfected by faith requires a set of laws to be obeyed without losing your faith in God. Your faith is what causes God to say fine you have passed. A test of faith perfected by works, requires that you perfect your faith to the point where it becomes the true faith, by

finding and joining the true religion. The spirit baptized must find a true religion and join it, for you cannot be a son of Jacob, the father of the spirit baptism through the JAC, without being a son of Isaac, the father of the water baptism through the ICC. But whilst finding and joining the true church is necessary for the saints it is not sufficient. There are no compulsory works at all during the test, but your faith will find expression in various good works of your choice. These optional works are what cause God to say fine you have passed. So it is doing what you have to do for God that gets you baptized and then it is doing what you did not have to do for God, that gets you sealed. Abraham's test was whether or not his works matched up to his conscience. Tests of works require a baptism of the flesh, because it is the flesh that does works of law or works of lawlessness - what shall we say about Abraham our forefather according to the flesh? The flesh is washed in water by a water baptism. Past sins are washed by water baptism. Future sins are washed by spirit baptism. These are the two cleansing methods of the true God that are referred to throughout the new testament... 21 That which corresponds to this is also now saving you, namely baptism, (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh [the water baptism], but the request made to God for a good conscience) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ [the holy spirit baptism](1 Peter 3). 22 let us approach with true hearts in the full assurance of faith, having had our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience [the holy spirit baptism] and our bodies bathed with clean water [the water baptism] (Hebrews 10). 5 owing to no works in righteousness that we had performed, but according to his mercy he saved us through the bath that brought us to life [the water baptism] and through the making of us new by holy spirit [the holy spirit baptism] (Titus 3). 2 and he said to them: Did you receive holy spirit when you became believers? They said to him: Why, we have never heard whether there is a holy spirit. 3 And he said: In what, then, were you baptized? They said: In John's baptism [the water baptism]. 4 Paul said: John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus. 5 On hearing this, they got baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus [the holy spirit baptism]. 6 And when Paul laid his hands upon them, the holy spirit came upon them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying (Acts 19). 11 I, for my part, baptize you with water [the water baptism] because of your repentance; but the one coming after me is stronger than I am, whose sandals I am not fit to take off. That one will baptize you people with holy spirit [the holy spirit baptism] and with fire [the baptism into Gehenna, your prison number allocation - see I14] (Matthew 3). So the baptism into the name of Abraham, the cleansing for entrance into the 1AC is a water baptism of your flesh from dead works of your conscience. The test, is a test of works of your flesh which should be in accordance with your conscience. Then if you keep faith in God (or Jesus, or the trinity, or Allah, or Brahman or however you see him) through this test as well, you pass and are sealed in the flesh as a result of obeying your conscience and keeping your faith, your spirituality, without ever having joined a true church. This is the sacred secret of how the majority of mankind are saved. If you obey your conscience under test and if you keep your spiritual perspective, you will be saved. You will be saved even though your conscience may be nowhere near to God's perfect law, and even though your spirituality may be nowhere near to the true faith. But if you have shown the true God that you can obey your set of laws under test, then he knows that once he has taught you his set of laws, you will obey them too. And if you can hold fast to a not particularly accurate spiritual perspective throughout the whole process, then he knows that one day you will hold fast to a totally accurate spiritual perspective. So the beauty of God's plan for salvation is that you do not have to join any church or other religious group (not even the LWs) in order to be saved. And now we can see why the Catholic Church was so keen to corrupt the beauty of the three baptisms into the fog of the trinity. It was so they could propagate the lie that only through them could you be saved, and further than without them you would fry. They deliberately short changed God's grace in order to exert more control on his flock, in order to abuse them more effectively for their benefit. The Baptism into the name of the Son 19 Having gone your way therefore, make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of

the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28 KI). The wording of the verse is meant to encompass the pre-flood, peri-flood and Abrahamic systems. However we are considering only the Abrahamic system here. So 'The son' of Abraham was Isaac. Isaac was born second but took the firstborn rights from Ishmael becoming 'the son'. 5 Later on Abraham gave everything he had to Isaac (Genesis 25). Such was the right of the firstborn, so Isaac had the firstborn rights. Ishmael lost his firstborn rights when he abused his younger brother Isaac... 9 And Sarah kept noticing the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, poking fun. 10 So she began to say to Abraham: Drive out this slave girl and her son, for the son of this slave girl is not going to be an heir with my son, with Isaac! 11 But the thing proved to be very displeasing to Abraham as regards his son. 12 Then God said to Abraham: "Do not let anything that Sarah keeps saying to you be displeasing to you about the boy and about your slave girl. Listen to her voice, because it is by means of Isaac that what will be called your seed will be. 13 And as for the son of the slave girl, I shall also constitute him a nation, because he is your offspring (Genesis 21). Isaac was also the promised seed of the 2AC, the mediator of the ICC. Jacob was also a son of Abraham according to the Hebrew way of thinking wherein a son of a son is a son. But Jacob was not 'the son' of Abraham. He was however the promised seed of the 3AC, the mediator of the JAC. John said to the Pharisees who came to view his baptism: 9 Do not presume to say to yourselves: As a father we have Abraham. For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones (Matthew 3). 11 I, for my part, baptize you with water because of your repentance; but the one coming after me is stronger than I am, whose sandals I am not fit to take off. That one will baptize you people with holy spirit and with fire (Matthew 3). John was baptizing people into the Isaaic Church Covenant with water. This made them 'stones'. For stones are part of the building of a church, whereas Christians are part of the congregation of a church, which is the real building. These stones can then further water baptize other people to be sons of Isaac, by covenant, and sons of Isaac are sons of Abraham both genetically and by covenant. Everyone baptized into the ICC is also in the 1AC. The water baptism into the ICC is following the laws of the church. But that is also following your conscience if you believe in the church. Also once the true church loses its water baptism there is a small period before it become a false church when its water baptism actually puts people in the 1AC rather than the ICC. This would directly create children of Abraham who were not children also of Isaac. But to the Hebrew, a child of a child of Abraham is a child of Abraham Any physically sick person who was cured by Jesus or cured by the apostles or cured by any person given the gifts of the spirit through the hands of the apostles was in fact baptized into the 1AC, the covenant of faith, at the same time that they were cured if not before. Jesus only cured those with faith... 34 He said to her: Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be in good health from your grievous sickness (Mark 5). 52 And Jesus said to him: Go, your faith has made you well. And immediately he recovered sight, and he began to follow him on the road (Mark 10). 28 After he had gone into the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus asked them: Do you have faith that I can do this? They answered him: Yes, Lord. 29 Then he touched their eyes, saying: According to your faith let it happen to you (Matthew 9). 20 And, look! a woman suffering twelve years from a flow of blood came up behind and touched the fringe of his outer garment; 21 for she kept saying to herself: If I only touch his outer garment I shall get well [that is faith] (Matthew 9). In fact those with faith can even save third won children, for Jesus resurrected Jairus' daughter on the faith of Jairus (Matthew 5 and Luke 8). So John baptized people in water into the works of the Law of the first Christian church. These were not so much works

that had to be done as works that had to be avoided, such as fornication, theft, idolatry etc. As we determined in section I32, every baptism is a cleanliness for entry into a covenant. So he who starts a baptism must also mediate a covenant. John the baptist started a water baptism, so he mediates a water baptism covenant. But the ICC is the water baptism system covenant for the entire Abrahamic system in which John lived. So John must mediate a subcovenant of the ICC. We call this subcovenant the First Elijah Covenant, since John was the first of 4 antitypical Elijah's all of whom started water baptisms into the 4 true Christian churches - see I45. The Baptism into the name of the Holy Spirit 19 Having gone your way therefore, make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28 KI). The baptism into the name of the holy spirit, is what the bible often refers to as the baptism in holy spirit. Matthew 28:19 does not refer to this baptism by its mediator (a father or a son), but rather it refers to it by its cleansing agent (the holy spirit). For if you are washed with holy spirit you end up with the cleanliness that the holy spirit possessed, so you share its reputation, its name. In fact you are born again as an angel and you yourself become a holy spirit... 5 owing to no works in righteousness that we had performed, but according to his mercy he saved us through the bath that brought us to life and through the making of us new by holy spirit (Titus 3). 6 What has been born from the flesh is flesh, and what has been born from the spirit is spirit (John 3). 5 On hearing this, they got baptized into [ ] the name of the Lord Jesus [the holy spirit baptism into the new covenant]. 6 And when Paul laid his hands upon them, the holy spirit came upon them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying (Acts 19). One cannot have the gifts of the spirit such as the powers to expel demons etc, unless one is in fact a spirit creature - see I22. So one must be born again before one can get these powers. So the holy spirit baptism is being born again - I12. Furthermore it is apparent that the baptism into the name of the Lord Jesus, is a baptism in holy spirit, i.e. a baptism into the name of the holy spirit, and so it not a baptism into the name of the son. In fact the mediator of all baptisms into the name of the holy spirit in the Abrahamic system was Jacob. He mediated the JAC, the spirit baptism covenant for the Abrahamic system. So in the case of the Abrahamic system, we are baptized into the name of the father (by faith) and into the name of the son (by water) and into the name of the grandson (by spirit). This was not the case in the other two system however, hence the less specific wording of Matthew 28:19. Also when one is baptized into the name of the holy spirit one becomes a covenant child of the holy spirit, i.e. a holy spirit. She becomes your mother. The new covenant, mediated by Jesus, being a spirit baptism covenant is a subcovenant of the JAC, mediated by Jacob, the Abrahamic system covenant for sprit baptisms. The new covenant saints, who are all baptized in holy spirit from the heavens, being chosen by the angels, take on Jesus name via their marriage covenant, for wives take the names of their husbands: 30 We are members of his body (Ephesians 5). 18 He is the head of the body, the congregation (Colossians 1). 23 Because a husband is head of his wife, as the Christ also is head of the congregation, he being a savior of [this] body (Ephesians 5). When the woman marries the man then she takes his name. She gets this name not because of her works, but because of her love actually. For example Michael Schumaker's wife may well be an awful driver, but she is nevertheless Mrs Schumaker, and she has this name not because of her driving ability, but because of their love. Likewise, the betrothed of the Christ, have his name because of his love for them and their love for him, not because their works are so much to shout about, as his were. So now we see clearly the relationship between baptisms and covenants. For those baptized into the name of Lord Jesus in the scriptures above, are the bride of Christ, who are the covenanters of the first new covenant which he mediates. But this means that the New covenant saints collectively are Jesus wife, and they are his brothers individually, all being sons of God, and they are sons of the new covenant and therefore they are his sons as well!! In fact baptism is the real method of procreation that has a future for mankind. And family genetics are a physicalisation of

that process which we all understand through our experience of living in genetic families. So our family relationships such as our mothers, brothers, sisters, wives etc., all have analogues in our baptism ancestries. So now we at last can understand what Jesus was talking about in Matthew 12: 49 And extending his hand toward his disciples, he said: Look! My mother and my brothers! (Matthew 12). His disciples were his mother as a group in the sense that as a group they were going to produce more brothers for him. Being specific, the baptism into the name of Jesus is a cleansing of them for entrance into the New covenant. Once Jesus had made this covenant with his disciples, entrance for other saints took place at their first communion which was their first passover celebration, for communion should only be celebrated once a year on the passover day, when Jesus celebrated it. The point is that you can be cleansed for entrance into a covenant 6 months before you actually enter into it. The apostles were baptized in holy spirit over 3 years before they entered into the new covenant. This disconnected between cleansing and covenant entry only applies for spirit baptisms. A water baptism puts you in the ICC the minute that you get wet. It really is a triumph of self importance over gratitude to celebrate the New Covenant every day as one can today in St. Paul's Cathedral in London. The baptism into Jesus name and into the names of all the mediators of subcovenants of the JAC is a sanctification with Holy Spirit: 1 In the course of events, while Apollos was in Corinth, Paul went through the inland parts and came down to Ephesus, and found some disciples; 2 and he said to them: Did you receive holy spirit when you became believers? They said to him: Why, we have never heard whether there is a holy spirit. 3 And he said: In what, then, were you baptized? They said: In John's baptism. 4 Paul said: John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus. 5 On hearing this, they got baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul laid his hands upon them, the holy spirit came upon them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying (Acts 19). So the baptism into the name of the holy spirit is a further baptism, imparting a greater cleanliness than the baptism of repentance of John, which was the bath of the flesh in a river. One cannot receive holy spirit, that is have the gifts of the spirit, that is have the powers of the first Christian congregation, without first being baptized with the holy spirit, baptized in spirit. 21 That which corresponds to this is also now saving you, namely, baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the request made to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Peter 3). 16 For me to be a public servant of Christ Jesus to the nations, engaging in the holy work of the good news of God, in order that the offering, namely, these nations, might prove to be acceptable, it being sanctified with holy spirit (Romans 15). 13 For truly by one spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink one spirit (1 Corinthians 12). So the first Christian congregation contained those who were sanctified with holy spirit. This is the cleansing power of Jesus' blood, that is his blood as mediator of the first new covenant, the 1NC. All the mediators of covenants of the spirit are submediators of the JAC, the main covenant for spirit baptism for the sons of Abraham. The first Christian congregation contained these holy ones and together are a holy temple (the entire congregation of the water baptized ones and the spirit baptized ones) as explained by Paul: 19 Certainly, therefore, you are no longer strangers and alien residents, but you are fellow citizens of the holy ones and are members of the household of God, 20 and you have been built up upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, while Christ Jesus himself is the foundation cornerstone. 21 In union with him the whole building, being harmoniously joined together, is growing into a holy temple for Jehovah. 22 In union with him you, too, are being built up together into a place for God to inhabit by spirit (Ephesians 2).

But those in union with Jesus are born again: 17 Consequently if anyone is in union with Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away, look! new things have come into existence (2 Corinthians 5). So the baptism into the name of the Lord Jesus, is being born again - see I12. It turns the believer into a living stone in the spiritual temple. It is being sanctified with holy spirit, and is having your conscience made good, which is having your future sins forgiven for an indefinite period. So the true chains of Mediators and of Covenants for the Law and the New Covenant (see I28, I29) are: The chain of Mediators of the Law Covenant: God x Methuselah (Gabriel) x Noah x (John the baptist temporarily during the baptism test) x Isaac (ICC) x Moses x Physical Israel The chain of covenants of the Law Covenant: CRC x 2BC x ICC x Law The chain of mediators of the New Covenant: God x Michael (Jesus) x Adam x (John the Baptist's associated angel temporarily during the baptism test) x Isaac (ICC) x Jacob (JAC) x Jesus x 1NC saints The chain of covenants of the New Covenant: ARC x 3BC x JAC x New Covenant So now we see again why a baptism into the name of Moses (whose name means 'drawn out of the water'), was also a baptism into the name of Isaac, by virtue of the above covenant structure. So God did not directly make the Law with Moses. He made a covenant with Methuselah, who made a covenant with Noah who made a covenant with Isaac who made a covenant with Moses. Moses himself did not covenant with Isaac, who was dead throughout his entire life, but nonetheless he was the beneficiary of the covenant that God had already made with Isaac. A covenant is legal asset which can be assigned to the next generation. And a 1NC saint has a covenant with Jesus who has a covenant with Jacob (promised to Abraham via the 3AC) who has a covenant with Adam who has a covenant with Michael who has a covenant with God. So, the baptism into the name of Jesus, or any son of the JAC, is actually a baptism into the name of Jacob, the mediator of the covenant of the spirit for Abraham's children. For the blessing to be heavenly kings was through Isaac's seed, whereas the blessing for earthly life was through Isaac himself and through Abraham his father. The physical birth process of all of us declares how we shall be born spiritually. For all men are drawn out of the water (the name of Moses) when the waters split in their mother's womb and they are delivered by an outstretched hand, not of Moses, but of the midwife normally. But there is not only water at birth, there is also blood. The blood represents the life, which is the spirit. So here the two baptisms of the Christian church are being declared at every birth of every human baby. Fathers and Sons As regards the Abrahamic system... The baptism into the name of the Father is the baptism into the name of Abraham, through his System covenant the 1AC The baptism into the name of the Son is the baptism into the name of Isaac, through his System covenant the ICC. The baptism into the name of the Holy Spirit is the baptism into the name of Jacob, through his System covenant the JAC. The baptism into the name of the father, is not the baptism into the name of God, since no human is a God to be worshipped like Jehovah quite yet. The baptism into the name of the Lord Jesus, is not the baptism into the name of the Son, but is rather that baptism into the name of Jacob, who has the superior covenant to the new covenant. All those with their flesh cleansed from dead works against their consciences are baptized in water into the 1AC into the name of Abraham. All those with their flesh cleansed from dead works against the law of the true church are baptized in water into the ICC into the name of Isaac. All those given a clean conscience not merely from their sins against it in the past but actually from their sins against it for the indefinite future are baptized in Holy Spirit into the JAC into the name of Jacob. Isaac was the conduit from Abraham to Jacob. The Christian church on the other hand is the conduit from faith to everlasting spirit life. But the patriarchal salvation triumvirate of Abraham Isaac and Jacob has appeared before in the peri-flood system as a

Biumvirate with Noah and his son Shem and in the pre-flood system as a Biumvirate with Adam's father and Adam. We read in Job... 23 If there exists for him a messenger, A spokesman, one out of 1,000, To tell to man his uprightness, 24 Then he favors him and says, 'Let him off from going down into the pit! I have found a ransom! 25 Let his flesh become fresher than in youth; Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor.' 26 He will make entreaty to God that he may take pleasure in him, And he will see his face with joyful shouting, And He will restore His righteousness to mortal man. 27 He will sing to men and say, 'I have sinned; and what is upright I have perverted, And it certainly was not the proper thing for me. 28 He has redeemed my soul from passing into the pit, And my life itself will see the light.' 29 Look! All these things God performs, 2 times, 3 times, in the case of an able-bodied man, 30 To turn his soul back from the pit, That he may be enlightened with the light of those living (Job 33). These 2 times and 3 times are the ransoms for the system covenant patriarchs. We know that they are ransoms due to verse 24. We know that they cannot be the ransoms of the master mediators of the master covenants since there are precisely 3 of them not 2. So they must be referring to groups of ransoms appearing in twos and threes. The system mediators are the only candidates for such numbers of ransoms, for each system mediator is ransomed. We know in the case of the Abrahamic system there are 3 system mediators, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. So the scripture above may envisage Adam's father and Adam forming a two person patriarchal salvation chain, having 2 ransomees. The wording of Matthew 28:19 and the above and the comparison with Abraham and the fractal works of our God lead us to deduce that the superior pre-adamic ransomee to Adam was his human 'father', since Adam had the spirit covenant in the pre-flood system and the spirit covenant is taken by the youngest ransomee in the case of Jacob and in the case of Eber in the peri-flood system. So the pre-flood 'Abraham' was Adam's 'dad' and the pre-flood 'Jacob' was Adam himself, and there was no pre-flood equivalent of 'Isaac', because the water baptism did not appear until the flood. This would give us a patriarchal blessing biumvirate in the pre-flood system (Adam and his dad were both blessing mediators as well as system mediators since any blessing mediator is a system mediator for the system he lives in). Incidentally, Adam's dad was not his genetic father, he was a Joseph like figure - see I5. The Righteous Decree in the Spirit Baptisms are well described in Pauls letter to Titus: 5 Owing to no works in righteousness that we had performed, but according to his mercy he saved us through the bath that brought us to life and through the making of us new by holy spirit. 6 This [spirit] he poured out richly upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that, after being declared righteous by virtue of the undeserved kindness of that one, we might become heirs according to a hope of everlasting life (Titus 3). The bath that brought 'us' (Paul and Titus) to life, is the water baptism into the name of Isaac, into the ICC, the blessing of which is the resurrection in an edenic body, hence the bath that brought us to life. The making of us new by holy spirit is the spirit baptism, which is being born again - see I12, which is the baptism into the name of the son, the Lord Jesus Christ, in the case of the first Christians. The righteous declaration in spirit is the gift of everlasting life, the end of the test of the baptism of the spirit, the sealing in spirit. 11 And yet that is what some of you were. But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit [the character] of our God (1 Corinthians 6). Washed clean - is the baptism in water into the name of the son, Isaac, the mediator of the ICC. Sanctified - is the baptism into the name of the holy spirit, which is the baptism into the name of Jacob, the mediator of the JAC. This is the start of the test of the holy spirit baptism. Declared righteous in spirit - is the successful completion of the test of the baptism in holy spirit. This is being sealed in spirit: This is also referred to as the completion of the baptism itself. 13 But you also hoped in him after you heard the word of truth, the good news about your salvation. By means of him also, after you believed, you were sealed with the promised holy spirit, (This is the spirit promised in Acts 1 by Jesus and poured out at Pentecost in Acts 2) 14 which is a token in advance of our inheritance, for the purpose of releasing by a ransom [God's] own possession, to

his glorious praise (Ephesians 1). 12 Happy is the man that keeps on enduring trial, because on becoming approved he will receive the crown of life, which Jehovah promised to those who continue loving him (James 1). The baptism into the name of the Holy Spirit is the start of the trial and the righteous decree in the spirit is the end of the trial. When you get everlasting life, you become a permanent part of the holy spirit, a permanent covenanter in the holy spirit covenant. You become a permanent part of Gods wife. You might also be a part of Jesus wife to be. This is not a problem, it is not bigamy! They are married themselves through the covenant of the firstborn and they both wear the family name of Jehovah. We should all be in submission to both of them! The holy spirit is grieved if sealed people sin, because such people are an integral part of the holy spirit. 30 Also, do not be grieving God's holy spirit, with which you have been sealed for a day of releasing by ransom (Ephesians 4). If you sin badly before you are sealed, the holy spirit can still dump you as it were, so she does feel so grieved! Sealing is the forgiveness of all sins forever (as regards judgment). At the start of the spirit baptism one is born again, gaining an associated angel. At this time one enters the Holy Spirit covenant temporarily (until time indefinite). When one is sealed and one has finished one's holy spirit baptism, one's entrance into the name of the holy spirit is made permanent. Jesus said to his apostles who were already baptized in holy spirit... 5 because John, indeed, baptized with water, but you will be baptized in holy spirit not many days after this (Acts 1). Jesus meant that their holy spirit baptism test would end positively not many days later. This was their sealing in spirit, the completion of their holy spirit baptism. At which point one can say, they are 'baptized' period. Now whichever covenant you start your spirit baptism in you end up either in the ARC or in Gehenna. The baptism into the name of the holy spirit is the washing in the blood of the ARC, the blood of the everlasting angel Michael who died as an everlasting angel on the cross/stake. You enter the ARC when you are sealed in holy spirit, when you are washed in the blood of an ever living angel, Michael. For Paul says: 22 However, now, because you were set free from sin but became slaves to God, you are having your fruit in the way of holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6). 14 how much more will the blood of the Christ, who through an everlasting spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works that we may render sacred service to [the] living God? (Hebrews 9). 11 And yet that is what some of you were. But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God (1 Corinthians 6). The righteous decree in the spirit is the end of the spirit baptism. This is the point where one gets everlasting life. So the blood of Michael gives everlasting life, which is a completed spirit baptism, which is entry into the ARC, which entry is for ever and cannot be revoked. This is how Jesus becomes our eternal father. 6 For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us, and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9). The Righteous decree in the flesh We have seen that the baptism into the name of the father is the baptism into the name of Abraham. It occurs either through the angels due to faith into the 1AC - see I28, symbolized in Daniel 4 by the dew of the heavens, or through water baptism by men in which case it is also a baptism into the name of Isaac, through the ICC. The water baptism is a bath of the flesh, a baptism in water, which is a forgiveness of sins in the past. The symbolism is that a bath washes off dirt that has accumulated in the past. It results in the candidate having clean flesh before God. In other words his flesh is regarded as having not sinned in the past. We have seen that the baptism into the name of the holy spirit, is a sanctification of the spirit, into the JAC. It is a cleansing of your conscience, which represents your future motivation. So it is a forgiveness of your sins in the future until an unspecified time, which might be tomorrow or might be never. If you pass the baptism test and get sealed, then it is never. But the day you break your holy spirit baptism test by losing faith, is the day that your sins are no longer forgiven

and in fact you are baptized in fire into Gehenna. We have seen that the righteous decree in the spirit, is the permanent forgiveness of your sins in the future, it is the forgiveness of your sins forever, and is the completion of the sanctification in spirit. It is a sealing, passed OK by God for everlasting life. Now there is one baptism left which we havent yet covered and that is the completion of the washing in water, the permanent cleanliness of the flesh. This being the entrance into the CRC in the case of a test with the law of a true religion and the entrance into the FRC in the case of a test with the law of one's conscience. This is referred to as the righteous decree in the flesh. Elizabeth and Zechariah, John the Baptist's parents, had this: 6 They both were righteous before God because of walking blamelessly in accord with all the commandments and legal requirements of Jehovah [which is only possible if you keep the faith] (Luke 1). 13 For the hearers of law are not the ones righteous before God, but the doers of law will be declared righteous [due to their faith that enables them to continue being doers of the law] (Romans 2). 20 Therefore by works of law no flesh will be declared righteous before him [we are declared righteous through faith not through works, but the faith enables us to do the works], for by law is the accurate knowledge of sin (Romans 3). 5 He, therefore, who supplies you the spirit and performs powerful works among you, does he do it owing to works of law or owing to a hearing by faith? 6 Just as Abraham: put faith in Jehovah, and it was counted to him as righteousness. 7 Surely you know that those who adhere to faith are the ones who are sons of Abraham. 8 Now the Scripture, seeing in advance that God would declare people of the nations righteous due to faith, declared the good news beforehand to Abraham, namely: By means of you all the nations will be blessed. 9 Consequently those who adhere to faith are being blessed together with faithful Abraham. 10 For all those who depend upon works of law are under a curse; for it is written: Cursed is every one that does not continue in all the things written in the scroll of the Law in order to do them. 11 Moreover, that by law no one is declared righteous with God is evident, because: the righteous one will live by reason of faith (Galatians 3). The baptism into Moses was into a law of works, but the righteous decree in the flesh, the end of this baptism, was made not because of works but because of faith. It was a baptism of works perfected by faith. Elizabeth and Zechariah had this. They were declared righteous not by works but by faith. However it was their faith that enables them to keep doing the righteous works. Whereas the baptism into the name of Jesus is a baptism of faith perfected by works. In this second case you need to keep the faith in order to be saved, but keeping faith will be manifested by works. So your works perfect your faith. When one gets a righteous decree in the flesh, then one is guaranteed a resurrection into the Kingdom of God. One has got a permanent entry Visa from God's Kingdom ambassador Abraham. One is Abraham's son by the 1AC period and this makes one a son of the FRC. The forgiveness coming from the righteous decree in the flesh is a forgiving of sins until Armageddon. For this is sufficient to get one into the Kingdom of God. Those with a genuine but misinformed faith in God, who are baptized from heaven into the 1AC but who never join the true church are sealed for the blessing of the FRC by a washing in the blood of Melchizedek, the Master Covenanter and Validation Sacrifice of the FRC.

In summary the entry into a baptism test is a baptism, the passing of a baptism test is another baptism, a sealing, a righteous declaration. The whole process of the entry, the test and the completion of the test should not be regarded as one giant baptism. It is two baptisms with a test between them. And if you fail the baptism test in the case of a spirit baptism you end up being baptized in fire into Gehenna, whereas if you fail a water baptism test you end up back where you started before you took the test and can then retake the test. The Possible Types of Baptism The 7 logically possible extents of forgiveness of sins, from a temporal standpoint with respect to baptism date are: 1. Forgiveness of all sins in the past 2. Forgiveness of all sins in the past and until some specified future date 3. Forgiveness of all sins in the past and until time indefinite

(i.e. Forgiveness of all sins until a date yet to be specified, i.e. Forgiveness of all sins until some unspecified future date) 4. Forgiveness of all sins forever 5. Forgiveness of all sins from the baptism/present until some specified future date 6. Forgiveness of all sins from the present until time indefinite 7. Forgiveness of all sins from the present onwards forever The water baptism washes off dirt from the past and so is the forgiveness of all sins in the past (1) The completed water baptism, the righteous decree in the flesh, is the forgiveness of all sins until the specified date of Armageddon (for this date see U16), since such forgiveness gives you entrance into the Kingdom (2). The sanctification in holy spirit, being born again, is the gift of a clean conscience, which is the forgiveness of all sins from the present until time indefinite (6). The completed spirit baptism, the sealing in sprit, the righteous decree in the spirit, is the forgiveness of all future sins forever (7). From this it is apparent that having been sanctified in holy spirit, one has to be water baptized in order to have all of ones sins, both past and future forgiven. Water baptism is about past sins, spirit baptism is about future sins. So those who are sanctified outside the true congregation must join it by water baptism, or they go to Gehenna. That is why God permits no sanctification in spirit unless there is a true religion in existence to be water baptized into. John, the baptist began the water baptism of the first true Christian religion. Entrance into all true Christian religions is through water baptism - see I45. False churches have baptisms that simply do nothing. Another way of saying this is that you cannot be a son of Jacob, a son of the JAC, without being a son of Isaac, a son of the ICC. Likewise, you cannot be a son of Isaac, a son of the ICC, without being a son of Abraham, a son of the 1AC, the covenant faith. Here is a table which represents most of the features of the 4 types of forgiveness of sin offered in the Abrahamic System.

Here are the scriptures which combined with the sections above prove this table. Try them out for yourself, ye searchers for the truth and the true God. If you find we have made a mistake, then please let us know helpdesk@lordswitnesses.us 6 This is he that came by means of water and blood, Jesus Christ. Not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. And the spirit is that which is bearing witness, because the spirit is the truth. 7 For there are 3 witness bearers, 8 the spirit [sons of the 3AC] and the water [sons of the 2AC] and the blood [sons of the 1AC, validated by Jesus' human blood], and the three are in agreement [all part of the same overall salvation process, the journey into the ARC] (1 John 5). 5 ...he saved us through the bath of regeneration and of renovation of the holy spirit (KI). 6 This he poured out richly upon us through Jesus Christ our savior, 7 that, after being declared righteous by the undeserved kindness of that one, we might become heirs according to a hope of everlasting life (Titus 3). 16 He was made manifest in flesh, was declared righteous in spirit (1 Timothy 3). 2 For the law of that spirit which gives life in union with Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For 3 there being an incapability on the part of the law, while it was weak through the flesh, God, by sending his own son, in the likeness of sinful flesh, and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh, 4 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who walk, not in accord with the flesh, but in accord with the spirit (Romans 8). 2 To the temporary residents scattered about in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bythinia, to the ones chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the father, with sanctification by the spirit, for the purpose of their being obedient and sprinkled with the blood of Jesus Christ. May undeserved kindness and peace be increased to you (1 Peter 1). 28 For he is not a Jew who is one on the outside, nor is circumcision that which is on the outside upon the flesh. 29 But he is a Jew who is one on the inside, and [his] circumcision is that of the heart by spirit, and not by a written code. The praise of that one comes, not from men, but from God (Romans 2). 30 Moreover, those whom he foreordained are the ones he also called, and those whom he called are the ones he also declared to be righteous. Finally those whom he declared righteous are the ones he also glorified (Romans 8).

Being baptized into the name of a mediator is being washed, cleansed with his blood 16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a sharing in the blood of the Christ? The loaf which we break, is it not a sharing in the body of the Christ? (1 Corinthians 10). Yes it is in the literal meaning. No it isn't in the symbolic meaning, for this is another Binary Question. 7 However, if we are walking in the light as he himself is in the light, we do have a sharing with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1). 13 For if the blood of goats and of bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who have been defiled sanctifies to the extent of cleanness of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of the Christ, who through an everlasting spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works that we may render sacred service to [the] living God? (Hebrews 9). Clearly in the case of the new covenant, the covenanters are washed clean from sin, they are sanctified by Jesus' blood, so they are baptized in the blood of the Mediator Jesus Christ. It is important to realize in the case of the law, that the blood of bulls, literally, does not take away any sin, in other words it does not affect the status of human blood, which represents our life, in any way. One cannot clean a human with the blood of an animal. Just as when a believer is baptized in a river, the water does not actually do anything, it merely symbolizes the type of baptism. At baptism, the priest, who is baptizing, is conferring a cleanliness on the believer. This cleanliness is the cleanliness possessed by the mediator of the covenant, and the cleanliness comes from the mediator's blood. By the Dirty Water Principle (you cannot clean dishes with dirty water), the priest must himself possess the degree of cleanliness that he is conferring on to the candidate. This in general means that the priest will be washed in the blood of the mediator too. The reason that the blood of bulls under law sanctified the sons of Israel to the extent of cleanness of the flesh is that it symbolized a washing in the blood of Moses, and he was that clean. Let us make this more plain. Every animal sacrifice made under the law of Moses, where blood was poured out, symbolically represented a washing in Moses blood. This is why Paul continues: 15 So that is why he is a mediator of a new covenant, in order that, because a death [of Jesus Christ on the stake] has occurred for [their] release by ransom from the transgressions under the former covenant [the Law covenant. He ransomed them from the sins under the covenant, not from the covenant. He reconciled man with God and that led God to drop the Law], the ones who have been called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. 16 For where there is a covenant, the death of the one having made for himself [the] covenant needs to be furnished. 17 For a covenant is valid over dead [mediators], since it is not in force/strong/confirmed at any time while the one having made for himself [the] covenant is living (Hebrews 9 - NWT adapted from Greek Interlinear). The one 'having made for himself covenant' is the mediator of the covenant, for mediators are subcovenanters as we have seen above. 18 Consequently neither was the former [covenant] inaugurated without blood. 19 For when every commandment according to the Law had been spoken by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of the young bulls and of the goats with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled the book itself and all the people, 20 saying: This is the blood of the covenant that God has laid as a charge upon you. 21 And he sprinkled the tent and all the vessels of the public service likewise with the blood. 22 Yes, nearly all things are cleansed with blood according to the Law, and unless blood is poured out no forgiveness takes place (Hebrews 9). Who ransomed who? The blood of the New covenant was actually John the Baptist's blood, for he was the validation sacrifice of the JAC - see U15 and the 1NC was a subcovenant of the JAC. But the blood of the ARC was Michael's blood, so the cup of the new covenant did not contain Jesus' blood but existed by virtue of Jesus' blood. Hence he said: 25 He did likewise respecting the cup also, after he had the evening meal, saying: This cup means the new covenant by

virtue of my blood. Keep doing this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me (1 Corinthians 11). Every son of a covenant is washed in the blood of his immediately superior mediator. So new covenant saints were washed in Jesus' blood (the submediator of the 1NC) which was washed in Jacob's blood (the main mediator of the JAC) which was washed in John's blood (the validation sacrifice of the JAC), and that is their entrance into the 1NC baptism test. Jesus' own cleanliness is not actually used in the washing. He was one submediator who did not actually need such a washing. He was washed in Jacob's blood, in order to enter the JAC, in order to mediate an inferior subcovenant (the 1NC), not in order to get any cleaner. Likewise he agreed to be baptized by John even in water, in order to enter the correct covenant, the ICC, and thereby enter the first Christian church officially, not because he had any sins in the past which needed forgiving. We cover this in greater depth below. So here is the 64 million dollar question that the LWs have been struggling to ask and to answer for 10 years, and of course asking the right question is 99% of getting the right answer. Why does Jacob need both John's blood of the JAC and Michael's blood of the ARC? Why do we have two sets of blood, two validation sacrifices for one master covenant? The answer is this... The blood of John cleanses him for the JAC which is entered by baptism at the beginning of the spirit baptism test. The blood of Michael, cleanses him for his entrance into the 3BC and the ARC which is entered into at the end of the spirit baptism test if that test is passed. So the one validation sacrifice covers the baptism at the start of the baptism test and the other validation sacrifice covers the baptism at the end of the baptism test which is a sealing, a righteous decree, assuming you pass the test. A sealed 1NC saints is a son of Jesus, the son of Jacob, the son of Adam, the son of Michael the son of God. Michael's blood can only be applied to Adam himself, since he ransoms Adam directly not Jacob directly. For if Michael's blood was applied in ransom of Adam today, then no one would die anymore and we would all become everlasting angels whenever we wanted. Which would be great, but is not really God's plan!! Each ransom of the FRC, the CRC and the ARC can only be applied once everyone still living is actually entitled to the benefit of that ransom. So the FRC can be applied at the beginning of the Kingdom of God when Melchizedek is resurrected and the CRC also can be applied at the beginning of the Kingdom of God when Noah too, the blessing mediator of the 2BC, is resurrected to attend the marriage of the lamb. Then the ARC is applied when everyone who is alive at the time (i.e. not in the second death) is entitled to everlasting life, this presumably happens after the 1,000 year reign. In the case of the ARC, Michael has got the ransom together and has lodged it with the lawyers, but they cannot apply it until everyone who God does not want to live forever has physically died. In fact all of Adam's living sons have to be sealed before the ransom of Michael for Adam occurs. This will not have occurred until after the end of the Kingdom of God. So John the baptist, provides Jacob and his sons of the JAC with a temporary angelic vehicle to get us into and through the Kingdom, through his validation sacrifice. John is actually a temporary holding sacrifice, that keeps us going until Adam himself can be ransomed at which point we get a permanent everlasting angelic vehicle. Jesus can give us an everlasting angelic vehicle because he died having already been sealed himself. He died as an everlasting spirit: 12 He entered, no, not with the blood of goats and of young bulls, but with his own blood, once for all time into the holy place and obtained an everlasting deliverance [for us]. 13 For if the blood of goats and of bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who have been defiled sanctifies to the extent of cleanness of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of the Christ, who through an everlasting spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works that we may render sacred service to [the] living God? (Hebrew 9). This death as an everlasting angel is how Jesus gives us life as everlasting angels, it is how he seals us in holy spirit. But John the baptist actually died as an angel when Herod cut his head off. John was non adamic, and so he had an associated angel. This angel had not been sealed, and it must have died in order that the sons of Jacob through the JAC can have indefinitely lasting angelic bodies until such time as Michael actually ransoms Adam - see U15. In fact Peter and Paul and Russell and Rutherford exist today alive as angels in heaven due to this ransom of Jacob by the associated angel of John the baptist. So Adam cannot be ransomed angelically by Michael until everyone alive is sealed to have everlasting life. But what about Jacob? If he is already ransomed by John getting his indefinitely living angelic body, then won't all Jews alive today

escape death? Evidently not! Only his sons of the JAC get the advantages of John's indefinitely living angelic body, not his genetic sons. Jacob was ransomed after he died, since John, his ransomer, died a long time after he did, And so all of his children have the death sentence of Adam passed on to them, which death sentence still exists. This is why Paul says: 16 For where there is a covenant, the death of the [human] covenanter needs to be furnished. 17 A covenant is valid over dead [mediators] (Hebrews 9). It becomes valid after the validation sacrifice ransoms the system mediator. And this happens after his death. Incidentally the judicial status of the wives of Adam and Abraham and Jacob etc. is irrelevant in these legal calculations because physical wives affect genetic children not covenant children. Women are the priestesses of physical life, they have nothing legally to do with spiritual life. Men are the priests of spiritual life. But women can effectively give spiritual life just as men can by loving and teaching and reflecting Jesus' character. Covenants are just the law behind the love. God is love, which when combined with wisdom gives perfect law. Likewise the blood of the Law covenant was Moses' blood, but the Law was a subcovenant of the ICC, which was the promise of the 2AC. The validation sacrifice of the ICC was the non adamic Isaac himself initially and then he was washed in the blood of John's human body we think. Moses' blood was washed in Isaac's blood. But Isaac himself was a son of the 1AC, so Isaac was washed in Abraham's blood. Abraham's blood was washed in Jesus' blood, since Jesus the human was the validation sacrifice for the 1AC. So all the sacrifices under law actually did point to Jesus. This then is what was cleansing the flesh of the sons of Israel from their sins. This is why a mediator 'one having made for himself covenant', had to die in order for the covenant to be confirmed. Because until he dies his blood is not actually available. Although Peter and all of the 12 apostles were washed in Michael's blood before he died, their baptisms were not completed, they were not sealed, until Pentecost in 33 CE after he died. The Salvation Status of Jesus the human, why did John baptize him? When a Jew became registered in the army, at 20 years old, (according to Hebrew age counting) under Law, then he was baptized into the name of Moses. 3 from 20 years old upward, everyone going out to the army in Israel. You should register them according to their armies, you and Aaron (Numbers 1). At his 20th passover a lamb was killed, one lamb per house. This symbolically represented his baptism into Moses, by a washing away of his/her sins of the flesh, with the blood of Moses, represented by the blood of the passover lamb. Then every time that he defiled himself thereafter, he would go to the high priest with a sacrifice. When the priest poured out the blood of this sacrificial animal, then the man would again be washed in Moses' blood, having his flesh cleaned for a further time. One can have as many baths of the flesh as one likes. Although in any true Christian congregation one can only be rebaptized by men twice after the first baptism - see U271. But as regards the cleansing of the spirit, which was the cleaning power of Michael's blood, this can only happen once, for it is a circumcision of the heart, and one cannot circumcise a man twice (ask any male Jew or Muslim)! Jesus was washed in Isaac's blood by John the baptist, although John wasn't altogether convinced about this idea: 13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, in order to be baptized by him. 14 But the latter tried to prevent him, saying: I am the one needing to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me? 15 In reply Jesus said to him: Let it be, this time, for in that way it is suitable for us to carry out all that is righteous. Then he quit preventing him (Matthew 3). At first sight this looks like an operating theatre being washed by a toilet brush (however nothing could be further from the truth). This procedure certainly did not result in any higher cleanliness for Jesus, but it did put Jesus into the ICC. Jesus himself said that this was necessary in order that 'all that is righteous' was carried out. Jesus was the very seed promised to Jacob in the JAC as a subcovenant of the 3AC. So from the standpoint of the 3AC he was a son of Abraham. Of course he was circumcised as well and therefore a son by the LCC - see I29. And Jesus was the very seed of the JLCC that would finally inherit the promised land. The JLCC was a subcovenant of the Land and Circumcision Covenant, the LCC, which provided exclusive entry into the ICC for children of Jacob until the conversion of the Roman officer Cornelius in 36Tishri (36 CE September/October). So Jesus did enter the ICC at his 20th Passover like the other children of Jacob. But the Jesus, called Immanuel, who entered the ICC aged 20 was raptured at his baptism aged 30 into heaven, when his body was taken by Michael, who came down from heaven - see I17. So it was Michael who needed a baptism by John to enter into the ICC, which is a covenant not for bodies but for spirits (personalities -

people). Now the human souls of Jesus was still circumcised and therefore still a party to the LCC which was a covenant not for spirits but for souls, involving the circumcision of that soul physically. Now when John started providing entrance into the ICC through baptism in water, the previous doorway of the Law into that covenant had been closed actually for the 3 years of the near bank of Daniel 12 - U152. The point is the John's baptism was taking over from the law as the method of entry for the sons of Israel into the ICC. For John said to the Pharisees and to the crowds: 7 Therefore he began to say to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him: You offspring of vipers, who has intimated to you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Therefore produce fruits that befit repentance. And do not start saying within yourselves, 'As a father we have Abraham.' For I say to you that God has power to raise up children to Abraham from these stones (Luke 3). He was not talking here about genetic fatherhood, but rather about covenant fatherhood through the 1AC and the 2AC, since those baptized were stones, dead stones, dead building blocks of the temple of the true religion, true but not born again Christians. This fatherhood is entrance into the name Abraham through the 1AC and through the ICC promised by the 2AC (since the water baptism puts you into both the 1AC and the 2AC). So John was telling the religious leaders and in fact all of Israel that they were no longer able to raise up children to Abraham through the 2AC by means of the law. He now had this power, through his baptism, both for the 1AC and the 2AC. In fact though the law itself was still able to provide 1AC entrance in 29Nisan when John started baptizing people, the Pharisees, since they were hypocrites who could not keep the law, would have fallen out of the 1AC long before they came to see John and therefore be unable to put others into it by the Dirty Water Principle! The Relationship between Baptisms and Covenants This is the sacred secret that has been hidden by the mistranslation 'in the name of the father and of the son and the of holy spirit', rather than the true translation 'into the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit'. It is the basis of all salvation and it has been hidden from mankind's eyes by the Roman Catholic Church... 13 Woe to you Scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites! Because you shut up the kingdom of the heavens before men. For you yourselves do not go in, neither do you permit those on their way in to go in (Matthew 23). Definition: A Human priest is a man who is clean to carry out a baptism Any priesthood which is clean to carry out a baptism is also clean to maintain and to terminate a baptism, in accordance with God's law. Definition: A Baptism of a believer by a priest into the name of a mediator of a covenant with God, is a 'washing' of that person in the blood of that mediator. Such a washing imparts to the believer the cleanliness of the mediator. So the believer has his sins forgiven to an extent determined by the cleansing power of the blood of the mediator. The priest himself must have already be so baptized of course. Definition: A Validation Sacrifice of a System covenant, is a person who ransoms the System Mediator of that covenant. The purpose of a validation sacrifice is to provide a temporary blessing to the System Mediator which holds until the permanent blessing resulting from the permanent blessing from the Blessing Mediator which he received from the ransom of the Master Mediator of the Master Covenant can be applied to the believer. Definition: The Blood of a covenant is the blood of the validation sacrifice for that covenant. A mediator of a covenant is himself washed in the blood of the validation sacrifice, the blood of the covenant. So that when those who enter the covenant through him are washed in his blood, they get the cleanliness of the blood of the covenant. The mediator mediates a washing in the blood of the covenant through a washing in his blood which is itself washed in the blood of the covenant. So the sprinkling of the blood of the covenant of the law on the people by Moses, and passing of the cup of the blood of the covenant by Jesus, both symbolize the mediator washing the covenanters in the blood of the validation sacrifice. But the way this is actually done is for them both to die, and then their blood (which is washed in the blood of the covenant) is used in the ransom process. As mentioned above, in the Law, the blood of an animal was entirely symbolic, as is the wine in the case of the New covenant. Jews and Christians were not actually washed in Bulls blood or in Bordeaux, they are washed in Moses' Blood and in Jesus' blood. In the case of the law, when the blood of the animal was poured out, then the blood of Moses was

applied to the sinner. So we can now understand the relationship between baptisms and covenants, which lay masked by this deliberate mistranslation of Matthew 28:19, a mistranslation which supported the trinity doctrine.

Eighth Lesson - The End of Satan's Greatest Deception - The Trinity

A Pure Heart 8 Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God (Matthew 5). The pure in heart do not see God physically, because no man can see God and yet live. They see him with their minds, for he is one short step of reason away. But what does it mean to have a pure heart? Well every man has impure thoughts, immoral thoughts, and hateful thoughts. And every man utters impure words, immoral words and hateful words. James tells us: 2 If anyone does not stumble in word, this one is a perfect man (James 3). And there are no perfect men amongst the sons of Adam. So plainly a pure heart does not mean that we only think sinless thoughts. No, a pure heart is one that can divorce the truth from any preconceived personal consequences to our status that the truth may have. It is simply a true academic heart, an honest heart. If you are willing to admit you may be wrong about something even if it means losing your job or your status or even your own humility, you have a pure heart. But any damage to your status will come not from your knowledge of the truth, but from your actions based on that knowledge. The truth is made to appear damaging by Satan, but of course it is not damaging, it is healing. Have the courage and the confidence that after seeing what we have to offer you, that you can still refuse to act on it if you like. You can be spiritually healed and yet not physically act on the truth if you like. 32 Know the truth and the truth will set you free (John 8). It is no secret that most people would rather believe a convenient lie than an inconvenient truth. Mostly because it is just plain easier. Confrontation is something we all like to avoid. But this can be a dangerous habit and will become more so as apathy grows within the masses. But that is not the issue here. The question we have to ask is why, why do we do this? Well, the fact of the matter is, God deliberately built us in that way, and appeared to us behind a thin wall of reason, in order that only those who wish to believe in him would actually believe. Our penchant to accept convenient lies is how God tests our faith. For if we love God, then we will punch through the deception and accept a truth, however inconvenient Satan makes that truth appear. No barrier will prevent us from returning home. This is the test that many have failed for Isaiah has said: 10 Upon you men Jehovah has poured a spirit of deep sleep. And he closes your eyes, the prophets, and he has covered even your heads, the visionaries. 11 And for you men the vision of everything becomes like the words of the book that has been sealed up (Isaiah 29). So it is up to each and every one of us to seek Him out by the "sweat of our own brow" and with "our whole heart". The Death of the Trinity by Their Own Words The Origin of Doctrine There was a fantastic episode of Star Trek Next Generation (Season 6, Episode 11, Chain of command II), where Captain Jean Luc Picard was captured by the Cardassians and tortured for information by Gul Madred. The procedure that the Cardassians employed was very simple. They shone 4 lights at him and asked him: How many lights do you see? He said: Four. Gul Madred falsely represented that there were 5. The aliens would then give him pain and torture every time Picard said that there were 4 lights, and then ask him the question again. To cut a long story short he never broke and continued to represent throughout the entire process that there were precisely four lights. When he was rescued by his ship mates they all congratulated him on his unbreakable will power and strength and told him what a great captain he was, and what a wonderful example to the crew he had set. But Jean Luc confided to one of the crew just how much he desperately wanted to convince himself that there were 5 lamps. He said that he was minutes away from cracking and

agreeing that 4 was 5. Of course once he agrees to that, he has lost his objectivity and it is game over. You can get anything you want from him. The plot is an adaptation of George Orwell's 1984 where O'Brien tortures Winston by holding up 4 fingers in front of his face and then insisting that there are 5. The Trinity Doctrine that began with the Catholic church and spread to many other churches is just that process. The trinity is the abolition of the number 2. The victim is asked to accept that 1 is 3 and 3 is 1. The Catholic Encyclopedia, the trinity section of which can be found at: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15047a.htm defines the trinity as follows: The Trinity is the term employed to signify the central doctrine of the Christian religion -- the truth that in the unity of the Godhead there are Three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, these Three Persons being truly distinct one from another. Thus, in the words of the Athanasian Creed: "The Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three Gods but one God." In this Trinity of Persons the Son is begotten of the Father by an eternal generation, and the Holy Spirit proceeds by an eternal procession from the Father and the Son. Yet, notwithstanding this difference as to origin, the Persons are coeternal and co-equal: all alike are uncreated and omnipotent. This, the Church teaches, is the revelation regarding God's nature which Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came upon earth to deliver to the world: and which she proposes to man as the foundation of her whole dogmatic system. This is illogically defined and therefore not defined and therefore non existent. This is the same as me telling you that: "The truth that in the unity of the Morris family (in which I am the head plumber) there are three persons, the father (Me), the son (Robert who is an apprentice plumber) and the mother (Laura who is not a plumber at all), these three persons being truly distinct one from the other. Thus, in the words of Bills creed "The father is the head plumber, the son is the head plumber, and the mother is the head plumber, and yet there are not three head plumbers but one?" For any reader trained in Pure Mathematics that is the end of the matter, there is no Trinity. But for the sake of the less logically experienced or mathematically inclined among us let's put it another way. There are 3 inconsistencies in the definition: 1. That God is three independent beings who are one being, so that 3 is 1 and 1 is 3. 2. Jesus is God and the father is God. So the Father is the Son 3. The Son is uncreated 1 It is not possible for three oranges to be one orange. 2 It is not possible for a Father to be a Son, this contradicts the definitions of both father and son. The son is defined as an offspring of a father not an 'onspring' as it were.

3 Sons are by definition created by their fathers, a son cannot be uncreated. Basically the Trinity is defined as a number that is both less than two and more than two. Obviously there is no such number. The Trinity is like a hotel in North London which is situated South of the Thames. Obviously there is no such hotel. But when the poor uneducated, logically uninitiated, spiritually naive, churchgoer complains, saying: How can this be? He is told by his priest: Aha! that is the mystery of God. God can put a hotel which is in North London in a South London postcode. God can make a number that is larger than 2 actually be less than 2. At which point the poor naive churchgoer gives up and says to himself. Wow! I will never understand God, I had better leave the understanding of him to my priest. I can never have a relationship with a God like that, whom I simply cannot understand. I had better have a relationship with the priest instead. This is of course precisely the effect that the priest wants. Now he can continue to play God to his congregation. So the churchgoer becomes an idolater of his priest rather than a worshipper of God. It is not possible to have a relationship with a person who cannot be known. So the churchgoer is prohibited by the trinity doctrine from having a relationship with his true Father. The Hook The trinity is therefore nothing less than a con-mans "Hook". If the victim is prepared to believe that one is three and that a father is his own son and that a son is uncreated, then he is prepared to believe anything at all and so he is fully "hooked" or brainwashed. Once he is in this condition, his logic is removed, his objectivity has gone, he is mentally defenseless, so he or his family can be pumped for money, sex, status, worship, whatever the priest wants. It is this concept of mystery that the pharisaical leaders of the church want you to accept so that you give up searching these things out. They wish to

be God as it were to their flock. So by making the trinity doctrine the central doctrine of the Roman Catholic faith, that church was auto selecting brainwashed people. The control freak only wants brainwashed people. He cannot permit free thinkers to enter the congregation, they might see through his little game and liberate his brainwashed victims. It is a pleasure to be able to reveal the truth behind this despicable mind game that the Roman Catholic Church has relied on for almost 2000 years. Now before hitting your with the "Trinity Busters" I would like to show you a very important piece to the proof of the Trinity Doctrine that the Catholic Church uses. They incriminate themselves with their own interpretation of the scriptures and what is incredible is that it has been in front of everyone's face since its inception. II. PROOF OF DOCTRINE FROM SCRIPTURE A. New Testament The evidence from the Gospels culminates in the baptismal commission of Matthew 28:19. It is manifest from the narratives of the Evangelists that Christ only made the great truth known to the Twelve step by step. First He taught them to recognize in Himself the Eternal Son of God. When His ministry was drawing to a close, He promised that the Father would send another Divine Person, the Holy Spirit, in His place. Finally after His resurrection, He revealed the doctrine in explicit terms, bidding them go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matthew 28:19). The force of this passage is decisive. That "the Father" and "the Son" are distinct Persons follows from the terms themselves, which are mutually exclusive. The mention of the Holy Spirit in the same series, the names being connected one with the other by the conjunctions "and ... and" is evidence that we have here a Third Person co-ordinate with the Father and the Son, and excludes altogether the supposition that the Apostles understood the Holy Spirit not as a distinct Person, but as God viewed in His action on creatures. The phrase "in the name" (eis to onoma) affirms alike the Godhead of the Persons and their unity of nature. These guys would have made great lawyers! So the Catholic 'proof' relies on Matthew 28:19 meaning: baptizing them in the name of... But it does not say this. What we find very distasteful is that the Catholics even quote the Greek scripture: (eis to onoma) yet still mistranslate it as "in the name", when it clearly says "into the name". So please beloved reader, pick up a Greek Dictionary, ask your favorite Greek Scholar. Keep on seeking and ye shall find. A Shorter Greek Lexicon by Liddell and Scott is the famous one, but the Analytical Lexicon of the New Testament by William Mounce is better for New Testament Greek in our opinion. You will find that 'eis', meaning 'into' takes the accusative case and 'en' meaning 'in' takes the dative case and 'onoma' is in the accusative case. That really is the end of the trinity, not that it even had a beginning because it is defined in such a way as to be non-existent. You will see how inane this whole concept is as you progress through these pages. You will also note that there is absolutely no mention of this trinity concept throughout the entire bible except the italicized sections that have been added to the scriptures by those who want you to believe in it! This is Catholic theobabble dreamt up in support of their trinity doctrine. A doctrine which condemns mankind to be ignorant idolaters of a non existent contrivance of crafty theologians; that being a multi-headed beast to worship as a god. They have succeeded in playing God with the vast majority of 'Christians' for 1,700 years, by using this cunning diversion. This doctrine is accepted by almost 2 billion people worldwide as it was even adopted by the protestant churches! This deception has profound implications regarding the truth about baptism that can be research by clicking on this link (Baptism). I suggest finish this section first though. To begin with, we will list a number of scriptures that prove that Jesus was not God and that the Holy Spirit was not Jesus and not God, followed by a series of known stumbling blocks that have been fraudulently added to the scriptures to deceive you... Top Trinity Busters Buster 1 32 For example, whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the holy spirit, it will not be forgiven him, no, not in this system of things nor in that to come (Matthew 12). So the holy spirit and the Son are not co-equal and are different beings for if they were the same being this statement would be senseless.

Buster 2 15 He said to them: You, though, who do you say I am? 16 In answer Simon Peter said: You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 In response Jesus said to him: Happy you are, Simon, son of Jonah, because flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to you, but my Father who is in the heavens did (Matthew 16). So God revealed it not Jesus, so they are two different spirits residing in two different places. Buster 3 23 He said to them: You will indeed drink my cup, but this sitting down at my right hand and at my left is not mine to give, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father (Matthew 20). So God and Jesus have separate possessions. Buster 4 18 Jesus said to him: Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God (Mark 10). 19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none [is] good, save one, [that is], God. (Lk18) 17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. (Mt 19) So Jesus did not teach people that he was God. If Jesus had been telling people that he was God, he would have complimented the man for recognizing this fact. Instead, Jesus rebuked him, denying he was good, that is, Jesus denied he was God. In fact he made it clear in this verse: 19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. (Jo 5) So the son cannot do anything of himself...but the creator of all things (YHWH) certainly was able to do al things of Himself!! So God is good and Jesus is not, so they are different beings with different characters and different levels of righteousness. Buster 5 God, the creator of all things is all knowing, all powerful and not bound by time or space. However that was not the case with Jesus as explained in these scriptures: 52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. (Lk 2) 8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; (He 5) 28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. (Jo 8) So Jesus had to learn obedience and wisdom and be taught by his Father demonstrating that he had limited knowledge, however God's knowledge was infinite and all-encompassing as we learned in Mark: 32 But of that day and [that] hour no one has perceived, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. (Mk 13) 36 Concerning that day and hour no one has seen, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father (Matthew 24). So God knows things that Jesus does not know. So they have no 'unity of Godhead'.

Buster 6 1 Do not let your hearts be troubled. Exercise faith in God. Exercise faith also in me (John 14). So we have two different beings to put our faith in. Buster 7 28 You heard that I said to you, I am going away and I am coming [back] to you. If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am (John 14). So it is plainly obvious by Jesus' proclamation the two of them are not co-equal. If you say they are equal then you bear false witness to Jesus' statement. Buster 8 42 saying: Father, if you wish, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, let not my will, but yours take place (Luke 22). So God and Jesus have two different wills. So there is no 'unity of Godhead'. In fact if it were not for Jesus' own will or volition in making a vow to sacrifice his own life for our sins, none of this would have taken place and we would all still be condemned to death as sons of Adam! Buster 9 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth (John 11). It is further exemplified by this scripture: 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (Jo 17) So Jesus spoke to God while He was on the earth and God himself remained entirely in heaven. Buster 10 9 You must pray, then, this way: Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified (Matthew 6). Again Jesus himself was entirely on earth and God was entirely in heaven when he said this! Buster 11 46 About the 9th hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? (Matthew 27). One cannot easily forsake oneself can one! The Father was God of the son. The son was not God of the father. This was one of Sir Isaac Newton's anti trinity arguments. Buster 12 1Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward and hungered. 3 and when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in [their] hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Now it is painfully obvious that Satan did not temp Jehovah here as he knows full well he cannot do that and Jesus made it clear He would not do that by casting himself down. Satan was tempting the Christ in hopes to cause Him to stumble so that he could retain his position as the firstborn son of God (the cherub who once covered Eden). The only way Satan could do this is to get Jesus to either tempt God, or to worship Satan directly. Buster 13 14 That thou keep [this] commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15 Which in His times He shall shew, [who is] the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honor and power everlasting. Amen. (1 Tim)

Now if you truly have an honest heart you would be able to understand that if our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus is the one who will show us the blessed and only Potentate, the King of Kings, etc...whom no man hath seen that Jesus cannot possibly be Jehovah God as those at the Council of Nicaea would have you believe! Think about it....no man hath seen him, nor can see him! Many have seen the Christ! In fact even Moses had the Word of God transmitted to him by angels (Acts 7:53). He did not actually see God physically. Buster 14 - OK, Maybe we're going farther that we need to but the next few should put an end to the insanity! 27 For [God] subjected all things under his feet. But when he says that 'all things have been subjected,' it is evident that it is with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone (1 Corinthians 15). All I can say is that if you cannot understand this one, please, go into a private room, get on your knees, raise your open palms up to the sky and ask God in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus to forgive you and to bestow His undeserved kindness upon you so that you may see with your eyes and hear with your ears and get the sense of it! Stop blindly following the traditions of men and seek the truth in scriptures. In 1 Corinthians we are told prior to this that Jesus delivers up the kingdom to God. Now this would make little sense if He was God (Jehovah God that is!): 23 Yet each in his own class: the Firstfruit, Christ [the 1NC and probably the 2NC Saints all who are alive judicially in the JAC]; thereupon those who are Christ's in His presence [those of the ICC and 1AC who enter the kingdom of God on earth]; 24 thereafter the consummation [which is the thousand year period], whenever He [Jesus] may be giving up the kingdom to His God and Father [Jehovah], whenever He [Jesus] should be nullifying every/all sovereignty and every/all authority and power [when everyone is equally a member of the body in spirit??]. 25 For He [Jesus] must be reigning [during the thousand year kingdom of God] until He which should be placing all His [Jehovah's] enemies under His feet [those who are in Gehenna are last to come into the spirit body] .

26 The last enemy is being abolished: death [at the end of the thousand year kingdom death is swallowed up as Satan repents!]. (1Cor15)

For no man who is judicially dead (not sealed in holy spirit) can see God, nor can God deal directly with any man in this condition. After the thousand year kingdom has ended and death is swallowed up everyone will have been sealed in holy spirit and ready to become angelic beings. This is when we shall see God! The important point being made is that Jesus is not Jehovah but is in subjection and must turn the kingdom over to Him after death is abolished! Buster 15 9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I [am] God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city. (Hos 11) So YHWH is not "man" and "will not enter into the city" (the church). However the bible refers to Jesus as "man" many times and he does enter many cities: 40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham do. (John 8) 22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: (Acts 2) 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by [that] man whom he hath ordained; [whereof] he hath given assurance unto all [men], in that he hath raised him from the dead. (Acts 17) 5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; (1 Tim) So God is clearly not a man, but Jesus was a man, therefore, Jesus was not God. Buster 16 The bible also says that God is NOT a Son of Man: 19 God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? (Num 23) However Jesus is referred to as the "Son of man" in numerous scriptures: 40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. (Mt 12) 27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. (Mt 16) 10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) (Mk 2) 27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. (Jo 27) God would not confuse the issue as Satan has through the Roman Catholic church and the tragedy at the Council of Nicaea. Numerous scriptures in Ezekiel make reference to humans who are "son of man" specifically in an effort to make a distinction between God and "son of man". Buster 17 When Jesus was in a weekend state he called upon his Father for help. 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. (Lk 22)

13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him. (Mk 1) So again, we know that Jesus is not God for YHWH is all powerful and certainly does not need to be strengthened by the angels He created! Buster 18 Let's take this argument to the fullest for a moment shall we. Are we not told that the testimony of two is true? 17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. (Jo 8) If that is the case how would you explain this? 18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. (Jo 8) If Jesus was God, He would have not have belabored the point to regard God's testimony as separate from his own. If they were one and the same, then Jesus would be a liar by this statement and we know that can not be!!!!! Buster 19 Jesus tells us that powers were given to him: 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. (Mt 28) God certainly needed no one to give power unto Him! If Jesus was God, just who was it that gave power unto him??? And as an added but touched on witness.... 18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him]. (Jn 1) 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. (1Jn 4) So Jesus is not God because he can be seen. In fact just the statement that Jesus is the only one to have seen the Father tells us that He is not the Father. Being in the bosom of someone means belonging to that one as a son by covenant or being begotten just as Lazarus was in the bosom of Abraham who is the father of all who have faith according to the promise.. Buster 20 If it is true that Jesus and God are the same person, then Jesus talked to himself in public, and prayed to himself in private and so was in fact a schizophrenic. This is plainly false suggestion and an insult both to God and to his Son. Now let's look at one of the most important scriptures of the bible. This is the one that verifies that Jesus does in fact become a God to be worshipped just as His Father. This does not make Him part of a triune being in fact it proves that Jesus' very nature has changed due to His unconditional love and sacrifice for us. Where The Confusion Comes In - Jesus is a God I believe its important first and foremost to find agreement on some things before we can continue with this section so without further ado. We probably can agree that there are two kinds of beings. There are those who are mortal, and those who are immortal. But this needs to be clarified a bit by asking what do these mean and how are they different? Mortal is defined as: Liable or subject to death

Immortal is defined as: Not subject to death (everlasting?) So now that we know the difference we must go the next step and that is to ask what this means to us in biblical terms.

If we are mortal and subject to death it means that our life is provided to us by another source. In other words we do not possess life for ourselves and are subject to death by the hand of He who that holds that life. If we are immortal and not subject to death it means that our life belongs to us and that we possess it for ourselves, we are not subject to death by another hand and therefore cannot die or be killed. As it was explained to me once, if you were a diamond and an outside light source shined upon you, you would be able to reflect that light back to others in a brilliant and significant way. In fact, it would appear that the light is actually emanating from you but in reality, if you take the outside light source away, you fade and become darkness again. The same analogy can be used to describe those of us who have the light of Christ shining upon us. We are able to reflect that light as long as it continues to shine upon us. However, if His light is removed, we have none of our own to emit anymore and are then thrust back into darkness. So we do not possess it for ourselves. Both of these describe the fundamental elements of what mortal man is. An immortal man on the other hand would actually possess the original light source or "life force" in him so it could not simply be removed by an outside source. This is sometimes described as a divine nature however, this term is used a bit too loosely for our purposes. The source of all life and divinity is Jehovah Himself. He is the great fountain of life from which all springs are provided and therefore must possess a quality that transcends immortality (life). This is the quality that Jesus possessed and demonstrated for us while here in our midst and that quality is best described in our limited intelligence as Love. It is this quality that allowed Him to overcome and sit at the right hand of the Father and to receive immortality as I will soon demonstrate to you. So now that we understand the difference between mortal and immortal we have to understand the natures of being. Neither angels nor man were ever created immortal as is evidenced by numerous scriptures. Although Adam was originally created in a perfect body (in Jehovahs image), he was only able to continue living this way if he were to follow Jehovahs commandments by eating only of the trees that would sustain life in this way. However, when Adam ate of the forbidden fruit, dying, he died. So he did not possess life of his own but the life he was given by another (Jehovah). Consequently the angles are only able to sustain the life they are given by following Jehovahs commandments as they do not possess immortality either as we are told in Timothy: 14 That thou keep [this] commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15 Which in his times he shall shew, [who is] the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honor and power everlasting. Amen. (1 Tim 6) So the scriptures plainly state that only Jehovah only has immortality (in spiritual terms). No other being therefore possessed life of their own as He does. In fact the reason they are waiting for Jesus to "shew the king of Kings and Lord of Lords" (Jehovah) to the rest of us is because no one has seen Him before this future date as He is in an unapproachable light. (His own light - His own life) So it goes without saying that while Jesus was here, He was still mortal and subject to death (as evidenced by what happened to Him. I say still, because even before He was made a little lower than angels, Christ was mortal in Godly terms and had everlasting life only as long as He obeyed Jehovahs commandments. It was not until Jesus ascended to the Father and accomplished what He had vowed to do (that being to provide a ransom for Adam) that He was given this immortality! The next few scriptures will plainly explain that so pay close attention to them!! 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he [God] hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

3 Who being the brightness of [his] [Gods] glory, and the express image of his [Gods] person, and upholding all things by the word of his [Gods] power, when he [Jesus] had by himself purged our sins [by his sacrifice], sat down on the right hand of the Majesty [God] on high; 4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name [Jehovahs name as the only begotten Son] than they. 5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Just the fact that it clarifies that He will become these things proves He wasn't always this way! 6 And again, when he [God] bringeth in the firstbegotten [Son] into the world, he [God] saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. (Jo 5) So Jehovah God (Yahweh Elohim) the Father gave the Son (Christ Jesus) life in himself! In other words, Christ, due to his love and sacrifice now possesses immortality just as His Father! This is why Thomas said my Lord and my God to Jesus when He came to visit them after the resurrection. It was only after that time Jesus was crowned with this glory and received the name that was higher than any other enabling Him to become a true God to be worshipped like His Father. This new status as a God is declared in John: CLV Jn 1:18 God no one has ever seen. The only-begotten God [Jesus], Who is in the bosom of the Father, He unfolds Him.

Stumbling Blocks 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father? In other words Jesus who had died and was resurrected as the only begotten God (proving He is not Jehovah God) is now the exact image (character) of the Father in every way. It was through His works that He showed His disciples how they too could become as He is. 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. He is not saying He is the Father, only that He is IN the Father and the Father is IN him, just as those IN Christ have the Christ IN them. This is in reference to His character, His spirit. It is repeated for your benefit... 11 Believe me that I [am] in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. It is telling us in no uncertain terms that those who are resurrected in the body of Christ, the 1st New Covenant Saints, will also have life in themselves just as Jesus does! They too will be higher than the angels because they followed after the Jesus through sacrifice (tribulation) and death as a witness to Him!

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (Jn 14) So Jesus qualified the verses above with verse 12 to confirm to you that He is not the Father by saying "I go unto my Father." Are you starting to get the point? I do not know how much more evidence you need to remove the veil from your eyes. This is precisely why we now have two Gods to be worshipped! This is why Jesus is mistaken for Jehovah by those who are still in darkness. They are not the same being anymore than Jesus and His wife (the Saints) are the same being. Yes, they are one in the body, but Jesus is still the head. Just as Jehovah is the head of Jesus and all: 1Cor 15:27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. 1Cor 15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. So Jehovah is still head of all things including Jesus, however everything else is subjected to His Son now!!!!!! He has pretty much taken over the Fathers business! This however does not make him equal to the Father like Satan tried to elevate himself to be, as they are all still in subjugation to the Father!!!! One more thing, the KJV version of the scripture in Philippians 2:6 reads: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: (Phil 2) This is a far cry from the true meaning of this text as it reads:

Who in [the] form [of] God, began not [this is a primary word of an absolute negative] seizing to go before [or] to be equal to God. The following NIW translation is closer to how it should read: 6 who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God. (Phil 2) Unlike Satan who did make such a mistake! This next one has also stumbled many because of how it is translated. The King James Version shown here is a possible use of the grammar however it is not correct as you will see. AV Ac 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. It would have you believe that it was God's blood that was poured out, but this is not the case. The Concordant Literal

version has it as it should read: thru the blood of His own. as it is rendered in the original Greek text. So the scripture actually means his own [Son]. This is further verified by a further witness to it and actually clarifies it in Revelation 1:5-6. AV Re 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, [and] the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

AV Re 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him [be] glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. So it is plain that it was the blood of Gods Son, not Gods own blood as the KJV would suggest. God did not die for your sins, His Son, Christ Jesus did (God cannot die but at the time, His Son could). It is hard to even comprehend the love Jehovah has for us to do such a thing. More Deception I leave you with these fundamental and critical points to ponder with regard to the KJ scriptures: 7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. (1 Jo 5) Do not be deceived by this verse because it is incorrect. The original Greek scriptures actually say: 7 seeing that three there are that are testifying, (1 Jo 5)

So the rest of verse 7 has been fraudulently added by those who would perpetuate the trinity doctrine...woe to those who did it! Even though we are all part of the body of Christ who is part of the body of YHWH in spirit. It does not make us an equal part of Him. The doctrine of the trinity is one of Satans greatest accomplishments as it has stifled/stumbled nearly 2 billion people effortlessly. In fact saying "there are three that bear witness" in itself proves that they are not one but three separate witness bearers. They are one in the body yes, but not equal nor the same being by any means. If you as a Christian do not shake the trinity concept from your bowels, you may be one of those who John warned us about. 22 who is the liar, if not he who is denying, saying that "Jesus is not the Christ"? This one is the antichrist, who is disowning the Father and the Son. (1 Jo 2) 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. (1 Jo 4) 7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. (2 Jo 1) We are being warned over and over that if you continue to believe that Jehovah came in the flesh (whom no man has seen and cannot die), that you are an antichrist for John is plainly informing us it was the Christ who came in the flesh. This brings to mind one other fraudulent interpretation of the scriptures: 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. (1 Ti 3) The underlined word God was fraudulently inserted (translated) by those same people from the Greek which means who. This is a blatant attempt to get the reader to believe in the trinity doctrine. If you dont believe me, look it up dear reader for it is plainly available to those who wish to seek the truth.

Very few know these truths to be evident mostly due to their lack of personal effort to seek these matters out; however the "great deception" was designed to stifle such activities by the congregation. Those who made these fraudulent translations would rather play God to their congregations. In other words, they are unbelievers who pose as believers in order to deceive even the very elect for their own personal gain. However they will not go unpunished! 52 Woe to you who are learned in the law! for you take away the key of knowledge--you yourselves do not enter, and those who are entering you prevent." (Lk 11) Jesus was speaking unto the Pharisees and scribes who are knowingly perpetuating this lie. It is saying that they will not get into the Kingdom, and are preventing the members of their congregation from entering too. Here is one last but powerful segment from Hebrews of scriptural proof of the trinity fallacy. Perhaps it will fully awaken you from the deep sleep incurred by centuries of dogmatic doctrine. Tighten your reasoning cap and consider this carefully. 5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he [Jehovah] that said unto him [Jesus], Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. Now it is pretty clear that Christ is not Jehovah God here for he not only knew not to glorify himself but was declared a Son by Jehovah Himself. He was begotten as a Son, wherefore Jehovah was uncreated and unbegotten. 6 As he [Jehovah] saith also in another [place], Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. So this priestly position given to Jesus (Michael) was decreed by His Father Jehovah. 7 Who [Michael] in the days of his flesh [inside of Immanuel (Jesus)], when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him [His Father Jehovah] that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; Now it doesn't take rocket science logic to sort this out. Who else do you suppose Jesus was crying to here? Who was worried about dying? Certainly not the uncreated, unbegotten God who cannot die. And who was able to save him from death?? 8 Though he were a Son [as declared by His Father in verse 6], yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; So Jesus had to learn these things, something the One whom knows all things and is omnipotent would have no need of. 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; (Heb 5) So Jesus was obviously not perfect in the beginning but had to be made that way whereas it is written about Jehovah God: 4 The Rock, perfect is his activity, For all his ways are justice. A God of faithfulness, with whom there is no injustice; Righteous and upright is he (Deuteronomy 32:4). So Jehovah God, the uncreated unbegotten God was perfect from the beginning whereas Jesus as stated earlier had to learn perfection. 10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

So Jesus was called to be a high priest by His Father Jehovah in much the same way we are called into the various salvation covenants to be priests and kings or even citizens in the Kingdom of God. 11 Of whom we [the true disciples of Christ] have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye [the Babylonian disciples of Christ who follow unsound and scripturally supportable teachings] are dull of hearing [will not listen to your own conscience]. 12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers [the time of the end - when we should all have understanding of who the Father and the Son truly are and teaching this to others], ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; [to include the keeping of the Sabbaths whether weekly or monthly and on the day that Jehovah commanded not the Pope (i.e. Saturday not Sunday] and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. Yes, those who cannot grasp even the basic tenets of biblical understandings. The first oracles of God are of course His commandments regarding among other things the Sabbath which has not been kept correctly for centuries and of course bowing down to idols which are in abundance throughout mainstream Christianity in the form of Marion worship, Worship of saints, worship of men who are heads of churches and of course the worship of a three headed beast called the trinity. Jehovah was not replaced by any of these nor was He replaced by the Christ, but the Christ was sent to us on His behalf as a means of salvation. Do not be fooled by those who would have you believe that Jesus is Jehovah God as part of the trinity beast! Only Satan creates such things and today we call it democracy. Have you ever considered what the new world order is all about? It is a union of all the kingdoms of the world under one democratic body currently called the United Nations. It is a multi-headed beast patterned after the United Kingdom and the United States. The EU is just another manifestation of Satan's work. It is the basis of the counterfeit kingdom and the Vatican itself is in its own glory as an NGO with a very special status to this world body. Yes they are of the world and they speak of the world and it does indeed hear them. They along with every other mainstream Christian organization who joined the wild beast of Revelation and have become harlots. Their ultimate goal is to form a one world universal religion based on similarities while discarding the differences. This is a counterfeit kingdom form of religion, it is a religion concocted of a body of men (a multi-headed body) not God! AV 1Jn 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. In Gods Kingdom, there is only one head, Jehovah, who has one seated at His right and one at His left to carry out His commands. These are not co-equal or co-eternal but under subjection to Him period! These will have been made perfect or they could not sit there at all. Jesus Himself will have one at His right and one at His left to follow His commands as well, and they will have been made perfect in much the same way as He was, that is how a true godly kingdom operates. 13 For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. (Heb 5) The key word here being reason for without reason we are all caught in the snares of the wicked one who uses the priesthood for his own personal hunting grounds. Satan is not as concerned about the world at large as he is about those who believe in Christ. It is in Him that we were purchased for a price and to Him in whom our salvation belongs. That is why he became first in all things and why he is now the first born of all creation and the beginning of all things. Satan has lost in the heavenly realm and he is now losing the earthly realm, but like any mob boss, he will not go down without first trying to execute all of those who exposed him and you know who they are! As I close this section on the trinity doctrine I again leave you with a couple of final thoughts..... Who Then Is The True Church 22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and [he] to whom the Son will reveal [him]. (Lk 10) So the distinction being made here is clearly a very special one. The truth is only revealed to those who are chosen as vessels unto Him. Do you really think that the Son revealed this important fact to over a billion Catholics residing in a church that is considered the mother of all harlots? Or the myriad of protestant churches that follow after the same fundamental doctrines of the Counsel of Nicaea? I certainly don't think so! The fact that you are now seeing and hearing

these things means that you may actually be one of these chosen vessels! And remember, it is not the church with the greatest numbers that Jesus keeps referring to. It is the one that earnestly seeks the Word of God for the truth: 32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. (LK 12) 1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. (1 Jn 3) So if you belong to one of those mega-congregations who are an integral part of the corporate "world", or a so called Christian who blindly follows your priest instead of Jesus, ask yourself this, "Does the world knoweth you?" If the world does know you (through the NGO status of your church), then you are not a son of God but a son of the world, a son of Babylon. Please take a moment to check with your religious organization and see if it is affiliated with the UN, EU, or other world body as an NGO. If it is, and almost all of them are, you will know where you stand. It just may be, arguably of course, that you have found the 4th and last faithful slave, discrete and wise of Matthew 25! The fourth and last true church of Christ ......

The Truth About Jesus - And The Kingdom of God

Alright, then who is Jesus.who is the Christ?? What was His sacrifice really about? Well, we only need to focus on the scriptures to find the answer to that question! In the beginning the Word was and the Word was with God and the Word was [a] God. This one was in the beginning with God. For those of you that have a problem with the interpretation [a] before God, our reasoning is simple; this passage contains an example of a noun without an article as explained earlier. Here is another example:

Grammatically, there are three possible ways to interpret Definite

in this verse:

"And the word was God" - the translation found in most traditional Bibles. Indefinite "And the word was a god" Qualitative "And the word was divine" Since Greek grammar permits each of these meanings, the whole premise of how it is interpreted is usually based on a belief system (church doctrine). If you do not understand the relationship between God and His Son, you will probably find it easier to remove the [a] and continue happily on your way. The problem with this approach is that it causes interpretational problems with a multitude of other scriptures as you will see. These are paramount to understanding what the bible is trying to tell us. In fact to blindly follow system based interpretations of Greek or Hebrew text will limit our ability to harmonize them with other scriptures. Continuing: All things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence. What has come into existence by means of him was life, and the life was the light of men (John 1:1,4). If only we could understand just these four verses of the bible completely, then we could begin to say that we are approaching the spiritual comprehension of the apostle John. For even though prophets in general do not understand what they are saying, We believe that John did in these verses (and we may of course be wrong).

We have tried and failed many times before with this one. But now, we think we have it right thanks to Gordon and his efforts, the Holy Spirit for guidance and of course God for His loving kindness and mercy, for none of this would be available without His help! The first scriptures to consider are these: 27 For [God] subjected all things under his feet. But when he says that 'all things have been subjected,' it is evident that it is with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone (1 Corinthians 15). 4 What is mortal man that you keep him in mind, And the son of earthling man that you take care of him? 5 You also proceeded to make him a little less than godlike ones, And with glory and splendor you then crowned him. 6 You make him dominate over the works of your hands. Everything you have put under his feet (Psalm 8). From these two it is apparent that the global phrases 'everything', or 'all things', need to be taken in context. The reader must remember that Hebrew has no word for 'except'. So that if everyone in a city celebrated except the Chelsea supporters, then the bible would say: And everyone in the city celebrated. But those in the city who supported Chelsea did not celebrate. In other words one has to qualify the phrase 'everyone' with the surrounding context. Returning now to John 1:1; it is apparent for example that God did not come into existence through the Word. OK, now we make the big connection which Gordon had been struggling with for 9 years, ever since he tried to persuade a Rabbi that he was no longer one of God's chosen people with an argument similar to the one below. This is a great example of Gods modus operandi! Adam's firstborn son Cain lost his birthright to Seth, a son born much later. Noah's firstborn son Ham lost his birthright to Shem (proved later in the section) Abraham's firstborn son Ishmael lost his birthright to the second born Isaac Isaac's firstborn son Esau lost his birthright (for a bowl of soup) to the second born Jacob Jacob's firstborn son Reuben, lost his birthright (due to his taking his father's concubine) to the 11th born Joseph Joseph's firstborn son Manasseh lost his birthright to the second born Ephraim. So to cut a long story short, every major patriarch in the bible had a firstborn son who lost his birthright to a more deserving later born son. So what does all of this mean in the greatest fulfillment?? Well, did God not say: Israel is my son, my firstborn (Exodus 4:22)? But Israel was not originally the firstborn of Isaac (whose father was Abraham whose father was ... whose father was Adam whose father was God). Israel was Jacob who was the second born. But Israel became the firstborn of Isaac and of God due to his spirituality. Likewise did his prophet not say: 9 For I have become to Israel a Father; and as for Ephraim, he is my firstborn (Jeremiah 31)? But of course Ephraim was not the firstborn or Israel or of Joseph, Manasseh was. So the question being begged is: Did this thing that happened with all of the patriarchs in the Old Testament happen also with the great Patriarch himself, HYWH?? Why the elaborate plan to demonstrate this concept throughout the bible unless the point needed to be driven home! So then, just who is the Messiah? Who is Gods son? Who is this mystery entity we are always talking about? Well there are a number of scriptures that give us this answer if we are willing to search the matter out. Have you forgotten Gods commandment; keep on seeking and you shall find, keep on looking and it will be given to you, keep on knocking and the door will be opened. Consider the following two groups of scriptures, one group set before Jesus died and the other after: 17 Look! Also, there was a voice from the heavens that said: This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved (Matthew 3). 5 While he was yet speaking, look! a bright cloud overshadowed them, and, look! a voice out of the cloud, saying: This is

my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved; listen to him. (Matthew 17). 11 And a voice came out of the heavens: You are my Son, the beloved; I have approved you (Mark 1). 7 And a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud: This is my Son, the beloved; listen to him. (Mark 9). 22 And the holy spirit in bodily shape like a dove came down upon him, and a voice came out of heaven: You are my Son, the beloved; I have approved you (Luke 3). Nowhere in the gospels or before this did the true God say of Jesus: You are my firstborn son, the beloved, I have approved you... And what about what the Jews murmured about Jesus when He said He was the bread coming down out of heaven: 42 And they said, Is this not Jesus the son of Joseph, of whom we know the father and the mother? How does this One now say, I have come down out of Heaven? 43 Then Jesus answered and said to them, Do not murmur with one another (John 6) Yes, Immanuel/Jesus was the son of Mary and Joseph; however, the Christ who came down out of heaven was someone else! Who was this Spirit that descended like a dove into Jesus at his baptism as described by John. 30 This is He about whom I said, After me comes a Man who has been before me, for He was preceding me. 31 And I did not know Him; but that He be revealed to Israel, for this reason I came baptizing in water. 32 And John witnessed, saying, I have seen the Spirit coming down as a dove out of Heaven, and He abode on Him. 33 And I did not know Him, but the One sending me to baptize in water, that One said to me, On whomever you see the Spirit coming down and abiding on Him, this is the One baptizing in the Holy Spirit. 34 And I have seen and have witnessed that this One is the Son of God. (John 1) This witness only came after the spirit descended.....After me.he was preceding me??? What does all of this mean??? Lets harmonize more of the scriptures and try to figure this out. 5 Hence when he comes into the world he says: 'Sacrifice and offering you did not want, but you prepared a body for me (Hebrews 10). Prepared a body? Are we not told in John: It is the spirit that is life-giving; the flesh is of no use at all. (John 6:63) Well one thing is certain, Jesus has certainly given us an abundance of clues to help us piece it together if we really want to use our minds! After Jesus spoke to them of these things at Capernaum, his disciples said "This speech is shocking; who can listen to it!" (John 6:60) And what an incredible answer from Christ when His disciples murmured about what He was saying to them: 61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said to them, Doth this offend you? 62 [What] and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? (John 6) For no one has ascended that hasn't descended first! 5 For let this disposition be in you, which is in Christ Jesus also, 6 Who, being inherently in the form of God [as a divine spirit being as an angel], deems it not pillaging to be equal with God [unlike Satan who tried to be equal], 7 but nevertheless empties Himself [out of that angelic soul], taking the form of a slave, coming to be in the likeness of man [entering into Jesus the son of Joseph and Mary], (Phil2) 3 For the Law being powerless, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful

flesh, and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the righteous demand of the Law might be fulfilled in us, those not walking according to flesh, but according to Spirit. So we know that God sent someone (His own Son)now lets get this strait, first a body was prepared for Him (the body of Immanuel/Jesus) then this scripture says He sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh! The question is: Who is that someone, who is His Son? Lets piece it together. 15 For we say this to you in the Word of the Lord, that we the living who remain to the coming of the Lord will not at all go before those who have fallen asleep. 16 Because the Lord Himself shall come down from Heaven with a commanding shout of an archangel's voice, and with God's trumpet. And the dead in Christ will rise again first. (Thes 4) An archangels voice indeed! 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1). 18 And he is the head of the body, the congregation. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he might become the one who is first in all things (Colossians 1). So it is obvious that He was not first in all things in the beginning. He has become the firstborn in all things not by his human ransom but by His angelic ransom as you will soon come to understand. (for proof of the Angelic Ransom Covenant click here or check the index later). We again harmonize the scriptures with Hebrews: 6 But when he again brings his Firstborn into the inhabited earth, he says: And let all God's angels do obeisance to him (Hebrews 1). This was carefully worded. Note is says "again", this means that there was a time when his firstborn was in the earth before Jesus. That firstborn was Lucifer who was the "anointed" one covering as you will see below. Now one of the common arguments to Jesus being God and not an angel is because of this verse: 5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? (Heb) They profess that this verse means that He was not an angel but that is not what it says at all, Jehovah is asking the question so that you might reason out the answer as to "which" angel it was! To verify this we only need to read a little bit further: 9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy partners ( meaning sharer) So when God anointed Michael (Jesus) above His partners who were also angels they too were required to do obeisance to Him because He was now their Archangel, the CEO of the heavenly administration. The change of heavenly authority is explained again in Acts. 20 For it has been written in the scroll of Psalms, Let his [Lucifer's] estate become forsaken, and he not be living in it [by casting him down to the earth]. And, "Let another [Michael] take his overseership [in the heavens]." LXX-Psa. 68:26; Psa. 108:8; MT-Psa. 69:25; Psa. 109:8 (Acts 1) Can you not see the beauty in all of this? "his estate" is in reference to Satan who was first in all things until "unrighteousness was found in him". It was Satan's deceptive works in the Garden of Eden of which he was covering as the first anointed cherub that kicked off the "founding of the world", the one we now are living in. So the one taking his (Satan's) "overseership" is the archangel with the "commanding shout". Why Michael you ask? Well, it is given to us in a number of scriptures: 7 And war occurred in Heaven, Michael and his angels making war against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels made war, (Rev 12) Of course Michael and his angels represent the Christ who is the Archangel and and all the the holy angels who follow Him and the dragon and his angels presents Satan and the fallen angels who follow him. This war took place already as "occurred" is past tense and in fact it happened when they were cast out to the earth where Satan is to rule until the

Kingdome of God is established. But we also know that when the Kingdom is established our "great ruler" will stand up and deliver us from evil. 1 And at that time, Michael shall stand up, the great ruler who stands for the sons of your people. And there shall be a time of distress, such as has not been from the being of a nation until that time. And at that time, your people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the Book. 2 And many of those sleeping in the earth's dust shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and to everlasting abhorrence. (Dan 12) This symbolic drama is described for us in Ecclesiastes. The foolish king is Lucifer who we know was the first born son (angel) of God. After the battle described above in Rev 12, he was imprisoned for a 1,000 years but was let loose again hence: 13 Better [is] a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished. 14 For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also [he that is] born in his kingdom becometh poor. 15 I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead. (Ecl 4)

This second child is Michael who stands up in his stead in Jesus! Now you are only beginning to see and understand the real and incredible magnitude of His sacrifice. Jesus (Michael), however did not become "first in all things" until he had sacrificed, died, and ascended to the Father. This is evident in Jude when Michael was still considered the "chief messenger" of God. 9 But Michael the archangel, when contending with the Devil, he argued about the body of Moses; he dared not bring a judgment of blasphemy, but said, "Let the Lord rebuke you!" Zech. 3:2 (Jud 1) Now this event of course happened before Michael had entered Jesus, before he became first in all things. In Hebrew, Michael means He who is like God! Before this He dared not bring a judgment, but afterwards he had authority to do just that! To ease your thoughts on angelic possession of men consider this: After Jesus gave the morsel to Judas, we all know that Satan entered him. It was then that Jesus told him to do what he was going to do more quickly. Jesus knew that Satan was going to have him tortured and killed. So, now that we have grown up a bit and have come to realize that Michael (Jesus) has now become the firstborn in all thingswe must clarify "Lucifer" - shakh'-ar (or "son of the dawn") as being the original firstborn. Immanuel/Jesus and Judas were both surrogate human bodies for the spirit beings that came into them as a means of accomplishing God's plan. We know that "Lucifer" was Gods original firstborn from Genesis, Ezekiel and Isaiah. "Lucifer" was the anointed Cherub covering Eden (here it is again)! 13 In Eden, the garden of God, you proved to be. Every precious stone was your covering, ruby, topaz and jasper; chrysolite, onyx and jade; sapphire, turquoise and emerald; and of gold was the workmanship of your settings and your sockets in you. In the day of your being created they were made ready. 14 You are the anointed cherub that is covering, and I have set you. On the holy mountain of God you proved to be. In the midst of fiery stones you walked about. 15 You were faultless in your ways from the day of your being created until unrighteousness was found in you (Ezekiel 28). After Lucifer fell from heaven he lost not only his original position but his name as well (he is not referred to as Lucifer after this but as the devil, Satan, etc..). 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O "Lucifer" (shakh'-ar), son of the morning [meaning first]! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! (Isa 14) Basically, "Lucifer's" biggest mistake was trying to be equal to or higher than God, however his treatment of Adam who was also God's own son, was the final straw. Adam was a son created by God alone and the most important addition to

the family. Satan had the top job of looking after him because this job was the right of the firstborn through whom everything would have been done according to the Modus operandi of God, who gives his firstborn covenanted rights to be his CEO. Michael and Gabriel were also cherubs, but were not covering Eden since neither of them was the firstborn. 20 And the cherubs must be spreading out their two wings upward, screening over the cover with their wings, with their faces one toward the other. Toward the cover the faces of the cherubs should be (Exodus 25). These two were later covering the Ark of the Covenant. Daniel reveals this great secret: 13 But the prince of the royal realm of Persia [Satan] was standing in opposition to me for 21 days, and, look! Michael, one of the foremost princes, came to help me; and I, for my part, remained there beside the kings of Persia (Daniel 10). One of the foremost princes? yes, but the foremost prince? no. Paul explicitly declares it: 18 and he is the head of the body, the congregation. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that he might become the one who is first in all things (Colossians 1). He became the firstborn angel of God at his resurrection from the dead (not as a human but an angel)! Again, we must harmonize this with proverbs: 22 Jehovah himself produced ([ )meaning to "erect" or "purchased"] me as the beginning of his way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago. 23 From time indefinite I was installed, from the start, from times earlier than the earth (Proverbs 8). The beginning of his way, and the earliest of his achievements relates to the creation of a loyal and righteous character not to creation itself as God knows how everything will end before its beginning. This was in anticipation of the events to come. Michael aspired to be like His father in every way: 30 then I came to be beside him as a master worker, and I came to be the one he was especially fond of day by day, I being glad before him all the time (Proverbs 8). Had Michael been the firstborn then he would not have come to be the one he was especially fond of, he would have always been that one. 9 For this very reason also God exalted him to a superior position and kindly gave him the name that is above every [other] name (Philippians 2). There is no position superior to God's firstborn angel. So Jesus (Michael) earned this position by his sacrifice. In order that you may know that the paramount sacrifice was Michaels angelic soul which was the corresponding ransom for what Adam had lost, and not Jesus' physical body (although that too was used to sacrifice for those with faith but are not baptized into a true church) consider this scripture: 23 That Christ should suffer, [and] that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. (Acts 26) 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first-born out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who did love us, and did bathe us from our sins in his blood, (Rev 1) Well, we all know that Jesus wasn't the first resurrected from the dead physically because during his ministry he himself resurrected Lazarus! So to understand the "deep things of God" we must use our powers of reason without prejudice. So yes Michael became the first resurrected angel of God. The first to be "born out of the dead" in angelic terms. It is further emphasized in Colossians. 18 And himself is the head of the body-the assembly-who is a beginning, a first-born out of the dead, that he might become in all things-himself-first, (Col 1) So He did not become first in all things until after he was resurrected as an angelic being. It was shortly after that He became a God to be worshipped. It occurred when he received a name higher that any other and was given to have life in himself, just as the Father does! 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; (Jon 5).

14 And to the angel of the congregation in Laodicea write: These are the things that the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God (Revelation 3). This is the same statement as: Israel is my firstborn. This is: Jesus (Michael) who is the firstborn. He is, but not by birth. He is the beginning of creation by God, but not by originally being the beginning of creation by God, rather by becoming this beginning. Before this, we had no beginning because we were all condemned to death due to Adam's transgression, however the Christ when He vowed to be a ransom for Adam gave us a new beginning in that we now had life again through Him. Now this getting "life in himself" was much like any salvation covenant in that it is done through an anointing process. We only have to look in Mark to see that Jesus did speak to His apostles about this very thing. 38 Yet Jesus said to them, "Not aware are you what you are requesting. Are you able to drink the cup which I am drinking, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am being baptized?" 39 Yet they say to Him, "We are able." Yet Jesus said to them, "The cup indeed which I am drinking shall you be drinking, and with the baptism with which I am being baptized shall you be baptized. (Mk 10) It is obvious from this statement that Jesus (Michael) was telling them that He would get this further anointing after His resurrection and ascension. Not only that He has made them aware that they too would get the same anointing as His wife I a Holy Spirit covenant with Him so that they to will eventually have life in themselves. We are given another witness to this event and when it took place in Acts: 32 And we are declaring unto you the good news, about the promise which was made unto the fathers, 33 God hath fully fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus; even as it is written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. 34 'And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus-I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David; (Ac 13) So again, we are reminded that it was not until after He was raised up from the dead that He fulfilled this covenant (vow) He made with Jehovah when He agreed to sacrifice for us. That is the day Jesus was begotten and became a God like His Father (verified by getting a name higher than any other). This vow was explained to us in the story of Jonah who symbolizes Jesus in Tartarus (in the belly of a whale) where judicially dead angels used to go before Gehenna: 9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay [that] that I have vowed. Salvation [is] of Jehovah. (Jonah 2) We know that two cherubs covered the Ark of the Covenant, and two sons of Noah walked in backwards and covered the nakedness of their father the builder of an ark. So let's consider now the order of Noah's sons. Actually there is a really awful film historical comedy called 'Noah's ark' starring Jon Voight and Mary Steamvirgin. This films screws up the entire history of Genesis and misrepresents God's character completely, however, for some reason beyond our comprehension (perhaps from Josephus), the script correctly recognizes that Ham was the firstborn. 32 And Noah got to be 500 years old. After that Noah became father to Shem, Ham and Japheth (Genesis 5). 6 And Noah was 600 years old when the deluge of waters occurred on the earth (Genesis 7). 10 Shem was 100 years old when he became father to Arpachshad 2 years after the deluge (Genesis 11). From these 3 scriptures it is apparent that Shem was 100 years old when Noah was 602, at which time his firstborn son would have been 102 years old so Shem wasn't the firstborn. But Shem got the blessing of the firstborn: 26 Blessed be Jehovah, Shem's God, And let Canaan become a slave to him. 27 Let God grant ample space to Japheth, And let him reside in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan become a slave to him also (Genesis 9). So Shem was blessed as the firstborn, so either Ham or Japheth lost this right, but Japheth was also blessed and Ham's son Canaan was cursed so Ham must have lost the firstborn right this is why the order of their listing is: Shem Ham Japheth. The final firstborn, the original firstborn, and the third born. Since the pre flood humans took at least twice as long before they procreated it is reasonable to assume that their gestation period was twice as long as well. So Shem must have been the second born since he was born 2 years after Ham. So Japheth was the 3rd born. This is yet again the Holy Spirit telling us that Michael earned his firstborn covenant by his self sacrifice and righteousness. So now we can revisit the majestic words of John

In the beginning the Word was and the Word was with God and the Word was [a] god. This one was in the beginning with God. All things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence. What has come into existence by means of him was life, and the life was the light of men (John 1:1,4). Incidentally, the fact that 'was' is used everywhere in John 1:1, indicates that the status of 'the Word' has changed since the 'beginning' referred to by John. And since the status of God almighty cannot change, the Word cannot be God almighty himself. In the literal meaning we have the Word of God, who is Michael (Jesus). 'In the beginning' he is said to be 'with God'. But what 'beginning' is John referring to here? Is it the beginning of creation by God? Is it the beginning of Genesis 1:1 in the literal meaning? Well it cannot be the beginning of creation by God or the beginning of Genesis 1:1 because 'All things' did not come into existence through Jesus after those beginnings. All things came into existence through Satan after those beginnings. The only beginning after which all things came into existence by means of Jesus was the beginning of the world. The beginning of the world is when Adam sinned. Once Adam had sinned, then without Jesus' agreement to the ARC (Angelic Ransom Covenant), everything would have ground to a halt. So after the fall of Adam, everything came into existence through Jesus because of His vow or "covenant" with Jehovah. What came into existence by means of him, by means in fact of his agreement to the ARC, was life, everlasting life in fact. So now we finally understand John 1:1. Jesus was the way the truth and the life, and the life is the light of men today. Jesus is our light, for he is the word of God. So to understand John 1:1, one has to realize that the Michael (Jesus) is the word, that the beginning is the beginning of the world, and that the world would have ended as soon as it began were it not for the ARC. The ARC gave the world a permanent future. So everything, after the world began, came into existence through the ARC, which is through the mediation of Michael (Jesus). This is why the scripture says both that all things came into existence through him and that what came into existence by means of him was life. His giving us the opportunity for everlasting life was necessary in order that the World would have a purpose. If you say that Jesus was the firstborn angel and everything in the whole universe came into existence through him, since he had the firstborn master covenant, then you nullify the scripture which says: What has come into existence by means of him was life. But once you realize that Satan was the firstborn, and that everything physical came into existence through him, including the whole world, but that the world only continued in existence because of Jesus' (Michaels) agreement to the ARC, then the scripture: What came into existence by means of him was life, is simply a correct explanation of the scripture: All things came into existence through him. Of course, what came into existence by means of Satan was death. The word symbolic meaning of these verses is as follows: In the beginning the Word was Michael was born but had demonstrated no allegiance and held no position, at the beginning of space time This is the point where Michael demonstrated allegiance to God by his righteous behavior, more than Satan, but God was still covenanted to do everything thru Satan. This is the beginning of the World, Adam's sin, when God made a covenant with Jesus (Michael) to ransom us. 'With' refers to the ARC, the Master ransom covenant made between God and Jesus. This is Jesus' resurrection, now he has become the firstborn of God and God covenants to do everything through him. But this covenant is everlasting so effectively Jesus is a God. Hence the Word was God. In fact he today is to be worshipped by his sons, who owe their life to him. This is why Thomas said to the resurrected Jesus, My Lord and My God (John 20:28). It has taken a long time to understand that one. This is the "beginning" of creation through that one. Not said to be the Word....Satan was originally loyal to God, and of course God was acting exclusively thru Satan. 'With' here refers to the covenant of the firstborn held by Satan, that God should do everything thru him, until time indefinite. He was however NOT the "Word".

In the beginning the Word was with God

In the beginning the Word was [a] God

This one was in the beginning with God

All things came into existence thru him

Everything physical, everything temporary, came into existence thru Satan. Every animal, every star, even man himself. Now can you see where his pride and arrogance come from? And how beautiful he once was and how much God must have loved him? What pain God must have gone thru in giving freedom to his sons and in staying loyal to his covenant with Satan.

Everything spiritual, everything permanent came into existence thru Michael, Apart from him not even one thing came into our eternal father. Satan has been our temporary father. Although to those existence who still practice wickedness continue to prefer Satan as their father What came into existence by means of him was life Yes and what came into existence by means of Satan was death. Which is why his name is 'death', the 4th horseman.

So in the literal meaning, Jesus (Michael) was a God, but in the word symbolic meaning, Jesus is God, in the sense that he has the firstborn master covenant and was given a name higher than any other (that of Jehovah's), so God does everything thru Jesus (the only begotten God Jn 1:18). The scripture is deliberately ambiguous, so as to work in both the literal and the word symbolic meanings. It is also written to mislead those who follow the teachings of men, and who will not use their own minds on the teachings of God. 12 For the word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints and [their] marrow, and [is] able to discern thoughts and intentions of [the] heart (Hebrews 4). The power of the bible to discern the intentions of the hearts lies in its deliberate ambiguity. It is written so that if you wish to play God, and just assign your own interpretation to a scripture, then you can. But those who love God continually work at improving their understandings. They do not assign meanings until they have pieced together the whole jigsaw, as far as they are able. 5 And the light is shining in the darkness, but the darkness has not overpowered it (John 1) Amen. The darkness, the evening, Satan, comes first the Hebrew day and in the day of Genesis 1. The light, the morning star, Michael, comes second. We have applied the Successive Descriptions Principle of the bible code to John 1:1 to deduce 3 beginnings for the Word. So there is a second and a third beginning for the Word in addition to his first beginning when God created him before he created space time. Then we applied the same principle again to see the 'The Word' and 'This one' are two different angels. This is why Jesus was able to say to his disciples after his resurrection: 18 And Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth (Matthew 28). Whereas before his death he said: 1 Jesus spoke these things, and, raising his eyes to heaven, he said: Father, the hour has come; glorify your son, that your son may glorify you 2 according as you have given him authority over all flesh, that, as regards the whole [number] whom you have given him, he may give them everlasting life (John 17). Before he died he had a limited authority over all flesh, but after he died he had total authority over all creation. So in summary, Satan was originally God's CEO, God's executive vice president; God did not move other than through Satan before Adam's sin. After this sin, Satan lost his firstborn right, but Michael did not gain it until after his death. After that point Jesus was God from an action point of view, hence Thomas said to him: My Lord and My God (John 20:28). So now that we have grown up, we can understand what Michael meant when he said: 23 Be going away behind me Satan (Matthew 16) 33 Be going under behind me Satan (Mark 8)

He meant give your firstborn rights to me, like we agreed. And now we understand the words of Bildad to Job: 13 It will eat the pieces of his skin. The firstborn of death will eat his limbs (Job 18). "The firstborn of death" is Satan. Satan in the sense that he was the first to be condemned to death yes, but also in the sense that Jesus is the firstborn of life, and Satan is the firstborn of death. Both are firstborns of God, but they champion rather different outcomes for their followers. Whereas John blessed the 7 congregations and called Jesus Christ: 5 The firstborn from the dead (Revelation 1). As pointed out earlier, we know that Jesus was not the first man ever to be resurrected, for he himself resurrected Lazarus. Jesus became the firstborn of God through his angelic resurrection. He was the first angel to die and be resurrected, and Satan was resurrected later after he died in Judas. So Jesus became God's firstborn from the dead. But Satan was the firstborn originally which is why we read in Revelation: 9 And was thrown the dragon, the great [one], the serpent, the archaic [one], the [one] called [the] Devil and the Satan (Revelation 12). He was the most archaic angel and he was the greatest angel until Adam's fall. This promise is described by our Lord: 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him]. (Mat 11) Yes! The Son will reveal to those of us who seek Him with our whole hearts, our whole minds and our whole souls! He will make it know to us who He (the Messiah) really is and who His Father is and who the Holy Spirit is! This document and our website is proof of that and you have been called to learn this from the Highest God! If that isnt enough, how about this! 8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that also we shall live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death no longer lords it over Him. 10 For in that He died, He died to sin once for all; but in that He lives, He lives to God. (Rom 6) It is obvious from this scripture that Jesus is not the Most High God for we read in Daniel 4: 34 And at the end of the days, I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to the heaven, and my understanding returned to me, and I blessed the Most High. And I praised and honored Him who lives forever, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His rule from generation to generation. (Dan 4) Yes, God does not die, however his only begotten Son Christ Jesus (Michael) did die as a ransom for Adam and all of his offspring! But He has overcome death by His selfless act as an angel. He is now a God to be worshipped just as His Father! Hence again we read after the resurrection: 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. (Jo 20) Before this, Jesus was only referred to as Lord! Now in Timothy we read: AV 1Ti 2:5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man, Christ Jesus; Interestingly the Book of Enoch spells out for us who this mediator is in Chapters 10 and 11. Chapter 10 And the Lord said unto Michael: 'Go, bind Semjz [another name for Satan meaning infamous rebellion - the adversary.] and his associates [the rest of the fallen angels] who have united themselves with women [of the earth in sexual bestiality] so as to have defiled themselves

12 with them in all their uncleanness. And when their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones [in battles and fiefdoms on the earth], bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth [Michael and His angels battled against Satan and his angels and they were cast down to the earth Rev 12:7-9], till the day of their judgment [this judgment occurred when Christ became first in all things] and of their consummation [at the end of this system of things], till the judgment that is 13 for ever and ever is consummated [at the end of the next system of things 3009AD]. In those days [the days of judgment and consummation] they shall be led off to the abyss of fire: and 14 to the torment and the prison in which they shall be confined indefinitely [until the end of the thousand years]. And whosoever shall be condemned and destroyed will from thenceforth be bound together with them to the end of all 15 generations [during the entire Kingdom of God these will be in Gehenna]. And destroy all the spirits of the reprobate and the children of the Watchers, because 16 they have wronged mankind [none of these bestial abominations will get life in the Kingdom of God]. Destroy [Yahovah is still speaking to Michael here] all wrong from the face of the earth and let every evil work come to an end: and let the plant of righteousness and truth appear [So Michael is charged with orchestrating the whole salvation plan from the beginning to the end]: and it shall prove a blessing; the works of righteousness and truth' shall be planted in truth and joy for evermore [The Kingdom seed is planted and firmly established among the faithful]. 17 And then shall all the righteous escape [via the rapture], and shall live [judicially in the Kingdom] till they beget thousands of children, and all the days of their youth and their old age shall they complete in peace. 18 And then shall the whole earth be tilled in righteousness, and shall all be planted with trees and 19 be full of blessing. And all desirable trees shall be planted on it, and they shall plant vines on it: and the vine which they plant thereon shall yield wine in abundance, and as for all the seed which is sown thereon each measure (of it) shall bear a thousand, and each measure of olives shall yield 20 ten presses of oil. And [God is still speaking to Michael] cleanse thou the earth from all oppression, and from all unrighteousness, and from all sin, and from all godlessness: and all the uncleanness that is wrought upon the earth [this being done through his sacrifice and death (the corresponding ransom) as he was sent forth to do by the Father Jehovah] 21 destroy from off the earth. And all the children of men shall become righteous, and all nations 22 shall offer adoration and shall praise Me, and all shall worship Me. And the earth shall be cleansed from all defilement, and from all sin, and from all punishment, and from all torment, and I will never again send (them) upon it from generation to generation and for ever. And this from Chapter 11 1 And in those days [during the consummation and the Kingdom] I will open the store chambers of blessing which are in the heaven, so as to send 2 them down upon the earth over the work and labour of the children of men. And truth and peace shall be associated together throughout all the days of the world [during the Kingdom of God] and throughout all the generations of men [even after the Kingdom]. So all of this is confirmation from the Book of Enoch that Michael is the Master Mediator between God and man our beloved Christ!

Jesus is the ruler of the next system of things, the Kingdom of God
The Kingdom of God is the Kingdom that Jesus preached about and that we all pray for in the Lord's prayer: 9 Our father which art in heaven Hallowed be thy name 10 Thy kingdom come (Matthew 6 - King James Version) There is no point in praying for it to come if you do not know what it is. It also helps to know when it actually does come!

Jesus gave his disciples and us the signs of the times in Matthew 24, to alert us to the general period in which it would come. He describes these signs in answer to the questions below: 3 While he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things? (Matthew 24). Just that one word 'privately' and that demand 'Tell us' shows that only his disciples will know when these things will be. So being blunt, if only we, the LWs, know precisely when these things will be, then only we, the LWs, are his disciples at this time. Although in truth, many Christians have recognized that the signs of the times are currently being exhibited. Part of his answer was: 14 And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come (Matthew 24). The 'end', in the largest meaning of this scripture, is the end of 'this system of things', which obviously is the start of the next system of things. And the next or coming system of things is the Kingdom of God. 29 He said to them: Truly I say to you, There is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God 30 who will not in any way get many times more in this period of time, and in the coming system of things everlasting life (Luke 18). So when Jesus was asked by Pontius Pilate, are you a King? God's favorite son replied: 36 My kingdom is no part of this world. If my kingdom were part of this world, my attendants would have fought that I should not be delivered up to the Jews. But, as it is, my kingdom is not from this source (John 18). Whereas his apostle, John, said: 17 Furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of God remains forever (1John2). So the world passes away to make room for the Kingdom of God. It was Eve's desire for Satan's status that kicked off 'The World', and Adam's desire for Eve's body kicked off death. But this new Kingdom of God is the final whistle on the World. And the end of the Kingdom of God is the final whistle on death. Here we have the first and the second Eden, the problem, and the resolution. 'The World' is the period between the two. The World is the primary school, the Kingdom of God is the secondary school. And although the Kingdom of God will have much more glory than the World ever had, the scripture remains saying: 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life (John 3). Everlasting life in the Kingdom of God and thereafter.

More indications of scriptural tampering

What of the Anti-Christ? Much of our understandings of the Antichrist come from the book of Daniel. It is not only detailed by his own interpretations but also is evidentiary of the second presence of Christ. What I have detailed for you here is only the event symbolic interpretations of Daniel 7 and how it relates to the antics of the Roman Catholic Church. All of this information is verifiable and available for you to research if you wish. We all know that the event symbolism of Daniels dream has the four beasts as being the Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Greek, and Roman powers over Gods people after God Himself ceased being their King. We also know that although the Beasts and the metals follow each other sequentially, the entire image (including the head of gold, the arms of silver and the thigh of bronze) is destroyed when the stone strikes the feet. The Medo-Persians conquered Babylon, but the Babylonian system of worship was not destroyed, merely refined. Similarly, when Greece conquered the Medo-Persian Empire, the names of the gods changed but the system of worship remained essentially the same, and the same deities were worshipped in Rome under a different auspice. The final apostate power to control world events would thus incorporate aspects and refinements of all the religious systems of history. They would be so clothed and disguised to

deceive, if possible, the very elect. 24 And as for the 10 horns, out of that kingdom there are 10 kings that will rise up; and still another one will rise up after them, and he himself will be different from the first ones, and 3 kings he will humiliate. (Dan 7) Although this scripture relates to both earthly (geographical) kingdoms and heavenly (spiritual) kingdoms, we will focus our attention on the spiritual aspects of this scripture since it supports our understandings of the true relationship of our heavenly family. Bear in mind that there is a first and second presence fulfillment of this event. We are only covering the first presence fulfillment in this paper. The 10 horns, or kings that rise up are the 10 Christian Roman Emperors as follows: http://www.roman-emperors.org/impindex.htm 306-37: Constantine I (Nicene Christian) 337-40: Constantine II (Christian who freed Athanasius - Nicene sympathies) 337-61: Constantius II (Arian Christian) 337-50: Constans (Athanasian/Nicene Christian [361-63: Julian the apostate (not a Christian at all)] 363-64: Jovian (Nicene Christian) 364-75: Valentinian I (Nicene Christian) 364-78: Valens (Arian Christian) 375-83: Gratian (Nicene Christian) 375-92: Valentinian II (Arian Christian) 379-95: Theodosius (Nicene Christian) ...there was another horn, a little one, coming up among them, before whom three of the first horns were plucked out by the roots. And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking pompous words. Daniel 7: 8 NKJV In this verse, we again have the reference to a man just as we had the reference to a man associated with the lion that had eagle wings representing Babylon. It was Babylon that deceived the ancient world with its system of worship (representing the type), and the little horn power would have the same elements as Babylon but on a universal scale (representing the great antitype). It was the power that would blaspheme God and speak pompous words and deceive the nations at the end of time. The NIV study Bible identifies this power as the antichrist and the footnote in the Douay Version (Roman Catholic Bible) on verse 8 says: "This is commonly understood of Antichrist." The little horn power, as we shall see, grows to become greater than all the others and should be seen rather as a horn growing from littleness to great stature. Since the little horn power represents the antichrist, it is essential that we correctly identify this power. Our method should continue to be that of Scripture harmonized by other Scripture. It is also important to note that 'anti' has two meanings in the Greek. It can mean 'against' or it can mean 'in the place of', and in 75% of cases where it is used, it refers to 'in the place of', rather than 'against'. There are very precise identifying features of the horn power, and every single one must apply in order to make an accurate identification possible. Remember, we are only relating the spiritual aspects of this not the earthly! 1. It arose out of the fourth beast. The description of the little horn power is in connection with the fourth beast. This is very important, since there are many who adopt a prt eristic view of the antichrist and would like to associate the antichrist with Antiochus Epiphanes IV, a Greek king who persecuted the Jews and desecrated the temple. This would, however, not fit the prophecy, as the antichrist is to arise out of the fourth beast, which is Rome. Papal Rome arose out of the ashes of Pagan Rome. The Historian C.C. Eckhardt says: "When the Roman Empire had disintegrated and its place had been taken by a number of rude, barbarous kingdoms, the Roman Catholic Church not only became independent of the state in religious affairs but dominated secular affairs as well." Every single historian agrees that papal Rome emerged out of the ruins of the ancient pagan Roman Empire. Thomas Hobbes, English Historian says:

"If a man considers the original of this great ecclesiastical dominion, he will easily perceive that the Papacy is no other than the ghost of the deceased Roman Empire, sitting crowned upon the grave thereof." 3 Leviathan, page 457. 2. It came up "among" the ten horns. Verse 8 I considered the ten horns and, behold, there came up among them another little horn. Daniel 7:8 The antichrist was to come up among the ten horns, growing from a small power to one which would eventually become greater than all the other powers. This is indeed true of the papacy. After the initial fusing of Christianity with the pagan religions of the time, the bishop of Rome increased in power whilst the emperors of the Roman Empire supported him. As you know Constantine was the first emperor to embrace Christianity, but he only cloaked himself with a veneer of Christianity. In the year 533 AD, the emperor Justinian decreed that the bishop of Rome was the spiritual leader of the Christian world. To qualify as a horn, this power must have the attributes of a kingdom, which indeed applies to the Vatican, which to this day is an independent state. Also, it arose amongst the powers of fallen Rome. The Europe that we know today is the remnant of the horns of Rome. Not only that, but it is different from all the rest! 3. It came up "after" the ten horns had been established in the first presence and continues to this day! And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise; and another shall arise after them....Daniel 7:24 The rise of the little horn power must be sought after the subdivision of Rome into ten powers, which means it must have been after 476 AD that this power, that had been growing from littleness, became firmly established in order to qualify as a 'horn', which is a king or a kingdom. The Roman Catholic church grew in power after Constantine accepted Christianity, but it did not control secular affairs until the Justinian decrees went into effect. The power of the bishop of Rome steadily increased and papal authority in secular affairs arose after the division of Rome in 476 AD by the Barbarians. The American Catholic Quarterly Review, April 1911, says: Long ages ago, when Rome through the neglect of the Western emperors was left to the mercy of the barbarous hordes, the Romans turned to one figure for aid and protection, and asked him to rule them; ... and thus ...commenced the temporal sovereignty of the popes. So, meekly stepping to the throne of Caesar, the vicar of Christ took up the scepter to which the emperors and kings of Europe were to bow in reverence through so many ages. A further quote from The Papal Monarchy, states the following: "The Pax Romana has ceased. It is universal confusion. But wherever a bishop holds court, religion protects all that is left of the ancient order. A new Rome ascends slowly above the horizon. It is the heir of religion, the emperor is no more... but the Pontifex Maximus abides...He is now the vicar of Christ, offering the old civilization to the tribes of the north. He converts them to his creed, and they serve him as their father and judge supreme. This is the papal monarchy, which in its power and its decline overshadows the history of Europe for a thousand years". 4 "The Vicar of the Incarnate Son of God, Anointed High Priest and Supreme Temporal Ruler, (the Pope) sat in his tribunal impartially to judge between nation and nation, between people and prince, between sovereign and subject". 5 Luther wrote: It is a horrible thing to behold the man who styles himself Christ's vicegerent, displaying a magnificence that no emperor can equal . . . He is, say they, the Lord of the World; but Christ Himself has said, "My kingdom is not of this world." Can the dominions of a vicar extend beyond those of his Superior? 6 Who is the Lord of this world? Well we only have to look as far as St Paul for the answer: 3 If, now, the good news we declare is in fact veiled, it is veiled among those who are perishing, 4 among whom the God of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through (2 Corinthians 4). The papacy has always considered its right to interfere in the affairs of states. Countries were divided by papal decrees, and kings enthroned or dethroned by papal decrees. 4. It was to "uproot three horns". Verse 8 ...Before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots.... Three of the ten kingdoms were to be destroyed by the establishment of the little horn power. Since it made its

appearance after the subdivision of Rome into ten different states, (after 476 AD), but before the destruction of three of them (because it arises among all ten), we now have a very definite time frame for the rise of the Antichrist power. We have identified the three already above as Arian. Only the papacy answers this description of three of the Roman divisions being uprooted. This is known in the history books as the Arian controversy, because three kingdoms, which did not accept the papal mandates regarding Christ's divinity, were literally uprooted and mercilessly destroyed. The Heruli were completely scattered in 493 AD, the Vandals in 534 AD and the Ostrogoths in 538 AD. These conquests strengthened the hand of the papacy and helped to get her established by the year 538 AD, in which year the bishop of Rome ascended the papal throne under the protection of the Roman general Vigilus. The date for the establishment of papal Rome as an independent power can thus be pinned at 538 AD. 5. It was to be greater than its fellows. ...Whose look was more stout than its fellows.... Daniel 7:20 The power depicted by the little horn was greater than that of the other states. This implies a position of political superiority. Although it grew from littleness, it was to become greater than all the other powers. "More stout than its fellows" refers to the greater power which the papacy wielded in the affairs of Europe more than any of the other powers. From 800 AD when Charlemagne received his crown from the Pope, the papacy was to assume power over kings and nations. The "Humiliation of Canossa" is depicted in St. Peters, Rome, when in 1077, Henry IV, King of Germany, stood for three days, a penitent in the snow, before being permitted an audience with Pope Gregory VII. Likewise, King John of England in 1213 stood naked on a cold marble floor waiting for admission to the Pope's presence in order to apologize to him. Note the testimony of a Catholic functionary again: The Vicar of the Incarnate Son of God, Anointed High Priest and Supreme Temporal Ruler, (the Pope) sat in his tribunal impartially to judge between nation and nation, between people and prince, between sovereign and subject. 5 6. It was to be "different" from all the others. ...And he shall be diverse from the first.... Daniel 7:24 As "a horn" is a king or a kingdom, the little horn must represent a king or a kingdom different from all the previous horns, which were secular kingdoms. The precise manner in which the horn was different can be deducted from the sum total of all its attributes that will follow. The papacy was different from the pagan kingdoms before it, because it was not only a political power, but a religio-political power as well. With regard to the political aspect of the papacy, it is a recognized state. Its seat is the Vatican, complete with a traditional guard and its own postal service. The Vatican is the smallest state in the world, occupying a mere 100 acres, but it has one of the strongest diplomatic corps in the world. Papal representatives sit in the capitals of the world and in turn, these countries have their representatives in the Vatican. The Pope is not only head of the Church, but also temporal sovereign of the papal state? The Vatican. 7. It was to have "Eyes like the eyes of a man and speaking great words against God". Daniel 7: 8,25 .. behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things....And he shall speak great words against the Most High. Daniel 7:8,25 We have already discussed the reference to the man and its connotation with Babylon. The little horn power is man rising up against God and speaking great words against God. It refers to a system that defies God directly and sets itself up in opposition to God. In ancient Babylon, the king of Babylon was referred to as the head of gold. All power was vested in the king. His word was law, and he was considered [a] god. Similarly, in the great antitype, all power will once again be vested in one man who as the spokesman for the system will utter blasphemies and claim a status not due to mortal man. The Bible identifies blasphemy in the New Testament. We read in the Gospel accounts that the Jews twice wanted to stone Jesus for blasphemy. '..Son, be of good cheer, your sins are forgiven you.' And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, 'This Man blasphemes! ' Matthew 9:2,3 NKJV 'Son, your sins are forgiven you.'... 'Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this? Who can forgive sins but God alone?' Mark 2:5-7 '...For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.' John 10:33 NAS Unlike Jesus, who is the Son of God and therefore can forgive sins, the little horn power is a power that claims to be able to forgive sins, and then has the effrontery to claim the position of God. Paul, writing to the Thessalonians, reiterates this point with regard to the antichrist. 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. 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Many of the Roman catholic churches antics can be summed up in their doctrine as demonstrated here. Catechism #8 Priests have the title "Father". "In the great era of the Fathers of the Church, saintly bishops devoted an important part of their ministry to catechesis." Is this warning not sound enough for you.

8 But do not you be called Rabbi, for One is your Leader, the Christ, and you are all brothers. 9 And call no one your father on earth, for One is your Father, the One in Heaven. 10 Nor be called leaders, for One is your Leader, the Christ. (Mat 23) Canon Law 1251 - Abstinence from meat, or from some other food as determined by the Episcopal Conference, is to be observed on all Fridays, unless a solemnity should fall on a Friday. Abstinence and fasting are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. Catechism 1580 - In the East as in the West a man who has already received the sacrament of Holy Orders can no longer marry. Both of these are the teachings of demons as explained by Timothy! 1 But the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, cleaving to deceiving spirits and teachings of demons, 2 in lying speakers in hypocrisy, being seared in their own conscience, 3 forbidding to marry, saying to abstain from foods, which God created for partaking with thanksgiving by the believers and those knowing the truth. (1 Tim 4) Catechism #2131 - Basing itself on the mystery of the incarnate Word, the seventh ecumenical council at Nicaea (787) justified against the iconoclasts the veneration of icons - of Christ, but also of the Mother of God, the angels, and all the saints. By becoming incarnate, the Son of God introduced a new "economy" of images. Catechism #2132 - The Christian veneration of images is not contrary to the first commandment which proscribes idols. Indeed, "the honor rendered to an image passes to its prototype," and "whoever venerates an image venerates the person portrayed in it." The honor paid to sacred images is a "respectful veneration," not the adoration due to God alone: "Religious worship is not directed to images in themselves, considered as mere things, but under their distinctive aspect as images leading us on to God incarnate. The movement toward the image does not terminate in it as image, but tends toward that whose image it is." (CCC, 516-517; see also p. 299-300 under "Holy Images") Talk about theobable!!!! Dear Lord open the eyes of our lost brothers! Indeed, the Roman catholic church is "speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron" (1 Timothy 4:2). What is described above is classic idolatry. God strictly forbade the Israelites from doing this exact thing (i.e. making an image that would represent Himself or something else and paying homage to it). 15 Take careful heed to yourselves, for you saw no form when the Lord spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire, 16 lest you act corruptly and make for yourselves a carved image in the form of any figure: the likeness of male or female. (Deuteronomy 4). 8 You shall not make for yourself a carved image-any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 9 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me. (Deuteronomy 5). When Aaron made a golden calf for the Israelites, the golden calf represented Yahweh (translated, "the LORD" in the NKJV), the true God. The Israelites identified this golden calf as the God who brought them out of the land of Egypt (Exodus 32:4), which was Yahweh (Exodus 3:14-17). And Aaron made a proclamation and said, "Tomorrow is a feast to the LORD." (Exodus 32:5). God's response to the Israelites idolatry was severe anger (Exodus 32:7-35). Catechism #971 - "All generations will call me blessed": "The Church's devotion to the Blessed Virgin is intrinsic to Christian worship." The Church rightly honors "the Blessed Virgin with special devotion. From the most ancient times the Blessed Virgin has been honored with the title of 'Mother of God,' to whose protection the faithful fly in all their dangers and needs. . . . This very special devotion . . . differs essentially from the adoration which is given to the incarnate Word and equally to the Father and the Holy Spirit, and greatly fosters this adoration." The liturgical feasts dedicated to the Mother of God and Marian prayer, such as the rosary, an "epitome of the whole Gospel," express this devotion to the Virgin Mary. Although Catholics may deny they worship Mary, they nonetheless do worship her. And, being that she is not God, this is therefore idolatry (worship of someone or something other than God, (Deuteronomy 5:7; Psalm 96:5) and demonic (Leviticus 17:7; Deuteronomy 32:17; 2 Chronicles 11:15; Psalm 106:37; 1 Corinthians 10:20-21; Revelation 9:20). Pope John Paul II epitomized this Mary worship. In the book, Crossing The Threshold Of Hope, by "His Holiness John Paul II," the chapter entitled, "The Mother of God" begins and ends with these two paragraphs. "The renewal of Marian Theology and devotion - in continuity with Catholic tradition - is another distinctive characteristic of the teaching and pastoral activity of John Paul II. Totus Tuus ("I am completely yours, O Mary") is the motto you chose for your papacy." (p. 212) "I think what I have said sufficiently explains the Marian devotion of the present Pope and, above all, his attitude of total

abandonment to Mary - his Totus Tuus." (p. 215) Catechism # 969 - . . . "Taken up to heaven she did not lay aside this saving office but by her manifold intercession continues to bring us the gifts of eternal salvation. . . . Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix."Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix." Mary is given the title of "Advocate", a title only Christ (Yahushua) is given in Scripture: 1 My little children, I write these things to you so that you do not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. (1 john 2) Also in the same section she is stated to be one who not only intercedes, but also brings "gifts of eternal salvation" (ibid.). Acts 4:12 says, 12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4) What is this name? It is Yahushua (Christ Jesus) of Nazareth (Acts 4:10; Philippians 2:9-11), not Mary (Mark 3:31-35; Luke 11:27-28). Is the cloud of darkness beginning to lift? Are the scales being removed from your eyes? Lets take this a step further.

What about infant baptism?

The Catholic Church teaches that infants become children of God once they are baptized. This is a hellish and damning lie. This encourages a trust in a ritual rather than a trust (an on going faith, 1 Corinthians 15:2; Hebrews 3:14) in the living Savior for re-birth (Romans 3:21-22; 1 Peter 1:3-5; 3:21). Catechism #1250 - "The Church and the parents would deny a child the priceless grace of becoming a child of God were they not to confer Baptism shortly after birth." The above misrepresentation regarding infant baptismal regeneration is nowhere taught in the scriptures. Only God can do this. All human baptisms accomplish (if done by properly anointed priests which I might add is also foreordained by God and God alone) is to cleans the flesh of past, present, or future sins. One can only cleanse another with the cleanliness they themselves possess. In other words, any priest claiming to clean an infant should have his head examined! 3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, If one is not generated from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God. (John 3) Basically, the roman catholic church is doing as the Jews of old by teaching "as doctrines the commandments of men" (Matthew 15:9). The list of pharisaical practices goes on and on, however I cannot spend any more time on this right now. We will come back to some of this later. We are only touching the fringes of scriptural understanding here. If you want all of the details you may want to peruse our websites at your leisure. Getting back to our earlier exposing of the Anti-Christ.. More of their antics.. 8. It was to "make war on God's saints." ... the same horn was making war against the saints, and prevailing against them. Daniel 7:21 NKJV The little horn power was thus to be a persecuting power that would war against God's people, and have success against them. It is a fact of history that the great wars of Europe were fought on religious grounds. The Protestants of Europe were relentlessly persecuted by Rome. Europe was plunged into the 'Thirty-year war' and the 'Hundred-year war' with the sole purpose of destroying the Protestant Reformation. The Waldenses, the Albigensers, the Huguenots were all relentlessly persecuted, and the Inquisition ordered the cruelest of punishments to be executed by the princes of Europe upon all those who refused to bow to the supremacy of Rome. In 1200 AD Pope Innocent III ordered the king of France to exterminate the Albigensers because they refused to accept the papal teachings and regarded the Bible, not the papacy as the ultimate Word of God. Historians D'Augbign and Wylie say that more than a million of these innocent people were massacred in one single campaign. 9. It would "think to change times and laws"

And shall think to change times and law. Daniel 7:25 Which times and laws would God be particularly concerned about? Surely this must refer to laws that God Himself has established and times which God Himself has set. We know that the Law is the whole Bible, but in particular this may be referring to the Laws of Moses, the Ten Commandments since they are well known. Changing the times and the laws must therefore refer to the attempt to tamper with God's law itself and tampering with times set by God. Has the papacy made an attempt to change the law of God and to interfere in the set times? The answer is indeed 'yes'. Any Catholic catechism will show that the law of God has been changed by the papacy. A comparison with the Bible will show that the Ten Commandments have been tampered with. The second commandment, which refers to images and idols, is absent in the Catholic catechism. And to make up for the loss of one commandment, the tenth is divided into two. The fourth commandment concerning the Sabbath day (the only commandment dealing with time) becomes the third commandment in the Catholic catechism, and the day of worship is shifted by papal decree from the seventh to the first day of the week (Saturday to Sunday). The great papistical debater, Dr. Eck, who on encountering Luther in 1553, said: "There is no mention of the cessation of the Sabbath and the institution of Sunday in the gospels or in Paul's writings? Or in all the Bible; therefore, this has taken place by the apostolic Church instituting it without scripture." 20 Catholic World says: "The church took the pagan philosophy and made it the buckler of faith against the heathen. She took the pagan Sunday and made it the Christian Sunday. There is in truth something royal, something kingly about the sun, making it a fitting emblem of Jesus, the Sun of justice. Hence the church in these countries would seem to have said, 'keep the old pagan name, it shall remain consecrated, sanctified.' And thus the pagan Sunday, dedicated to Balder, became the Christian Sunday, sacred to Jesus." 21 The Catholic Mirror, Sept. 23, 1893 says: "The Christian Sabbath is therefore to this day the acknowledged offspring of the Catholic Church, as a spouse of the Holy Ghost, without a word of remonstrance from the Protestant world." Father Enright, Sentinel, June 1893 says and I find this to be most unsettling: "The Bible says 'Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day'. The Catholic church says 'No! By my divine power, I abolish the Sabbath day, and command you to keep holy the first day of the week, and lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the Holy Catholic Church." Catechismus Romanus, 1867, Chap. 3 quotes Pope Pius in 1566: "It pleased the church of God that the religious celebration of the Sabbath day should be transferred to the Lord's day (Sunday)'". Papal Rome thus tampered with the law of God and changed the ordinances, although the Bible declares of God: "For I am the LORD, I change not ...." Malachi 3:6 Here for your perusal is more on the catholic churches apostate actions regarding the Ten Commandments.

The deception surrounding the Ten Commandments

The Conflicting Arrangement of the Ten Commandments as Revealed by a Comparison of the Protestant, Catholic and Hebrew Versions (much of this material taken from a book by Joseph Lewis) This information compiled for you, and subsequent facts will prove, that not all the religions which accept these Commandments as the revealed words of God condense them in the same manner or interpret them the same way. They are arranged to suit the exigencies of the particular creed and to fit the ritual of the particular form of worship. This is an affront to the Word of God! We are told by religious leaders that the Bible is the inspired word of God, and that man must not presume to pit his finite intelligence against it. Yet that is exactly what the religionists have done with so important a part of the Bible as the Ten Commandments -- God's supposed words written with his own finger!

We are told that regardless of other differences that might exist among these three religions, they are in perfect accord on the Ten Commandments! If there is any place where perfect accord should exist in Biblical matters among the sects, it should be in the Decalogue. If they do not agree about the only message that God is supposed to have delivered himself, how can we expect to find them in agreement on matters about which they admit there exists much doubt and speculation? Although the Protestant, Catholic and Hebrew Bibles vary but slightly and then only textually, the listing to follow reveals a deliberate change made by those responsible for the arrangement of the Commandments. The Decalogue According to the Protestant Version [**13] First Commandment Thou shalt have no other gods before me. The Decalogue According to the Catholic Version [**14] First Commandment I am the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not have strange gods before me. The Decalogue According to the Hebrew Version [**15] First Commandment I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

In the First Commandment, the reader will note that the words "I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage," is left out of the Protestant version completely, and partially from the Catholic. It forms the First Commandment according to the Hebrews. In the Catholic and Protestant versions, the reference to being "brought out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage," was left out for very good and sufficient reasons! That part of the Commandment has absolutely nothing whatever to do with Protestants or Catholics. When the Commandments were written, they were not in existence. They were never in Egypt, and the Lord had no occasion to free them from the yoke of bondage; by this very omission the Ten Commandments are stamped as a purely provincial code, applicable, if at all, only to the Children of Israel. In this respect both the Catholics and the Protestants have judiciously, yet deceitfully, refrained from using it, despite the incontrovertible fact that it is part of the Decalogue, and just as vital as the other parts. In some editions of the Hebrew Bible, the word "bondage" has been substituted for "slavery." The explanation given for this change by the best Biblical authorities is that the Jews do not want to characterize Egypt as a place of slavery while the Jews living in Egypt are enjoying liberty there. Was the integrity of the text sacrificed for the sake of expediency? In wording this Commandment, however, the Catholics were cleverer than the Protestants. They used the first five words of the Commandment but left out the succeeding damaging phrase, and have added, though in a corrupted form, the first part of the Second Commandment. The Protestants, unable to use the First Commandment as biblically recorded, have daringly taken the first sentence of the Second Commandment as the first one in the arrangement of the Decalogue! In an address over radio station WEAF, the second of a series dealing with the Ten Commandments, the Rev. James M. Gillis, C.S.P., made this statement: "On the tablets of Moses, the First Commandment read: 'I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have strange Gods before me.'" Joseph Lewis challenged this statement of the Rev. James M. Gillis, C.S.P., and state categorically: No such words appeared on the tablets of Moses as biblically recorded, and in making that statement he either deliberately falsified the text or is ignorant of the facts. If the former, it invalidates his right to discuss this question; and if the latter, it reveals his incompetence. Lewis also stated, "If the Rev. James M. Gillis does not accept my indictment, perhaps he will abide by the following quotation taken from the Douay Version of the Bible, "published with the imprimatur and approbation of His Eminence John Cardinal Farley, Archbishop of New York." I quote Exodus, Chapter 20, verses 1 and 2: 1. And the Lord spoke all these words; 2. I am the Lord thy God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Why did the Rev. James M. Gillis fail to include the words, "who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage," particularly when he states that "the Ten Commandments are not the voice of man -- they are the revelations of

the mind and will of the Almighty," and "whether He whisper or whether He thunder, the message is the same, the infallible, everlasting moral law, in brief, the Ten Commandments"? In the course of his discussion of the Ten Commandments, the Rev. James M. Gillis states that "a lie is a lie, whether it come out of the mouth, or off the page," and that "if to the lie is added fraud, restitution must be made otherwise, in the Catholic system absolution for the sin cannot be obtained." According to his own standard, James M. Gillis himself is placed in the category of those doomed by the dogma of his own Church. Protestant Second Commandment 4. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6. And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Catholic Second Commandment [**21] Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. Hebrew Second Commandment 3. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. 4. Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any manner of likeness, of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5. Thou shalt not bow down unto them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; 6. And showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments. In addition to the italicized words which differentiate the Protestant and Hebrew versions of the Second Commandment, we find that the Catholics leave out the entire Second Commandment. They omit it because it would interfere with the most lucrative part of their ritual -- the worship and adoration of saints and of their coveted "Mother of God" Mary. Catholics not only make "graven images" in direct prohibition and violation of the Second Commandment, but they also worship these images in defiance of an angry and vengeful God. That the Roman Catholic Church has practiced this defiance with impunity for centuries indicates either the impotence of the Bible God or the falsity of the Commandments. Catholic historical records show that the Church has continuously, since the fourth century, published a mutilated set of Commandments and maintained it as the true version by prohibiting anyone from reading the Bible! In fact, this is the very reason Tyndale, who translated the Bible into English, was strangled and burned at the stake. Since the Seventh General Council, 787 A.D., the Second Commandment has either been omitted or falsely explained away. In fact, so cleverly did the Catholic Church perpetrate this fraud that up to and even after the Reformation it was not discovered, and formed the Decalogue as accepted by the Anglican Church as late as 1563. So strongly was this mutilated version of the Commandments entrenched that even Martin Luther did not discover the imposition until several decades after his schism with Rome, and accounts for the Lutherans accepting the Catholic version of the Decalogue. Lewis is constrained to refer to the text of the Decalogue in Exodus of the Douay Version of the Bible for additional evidence of the perfidy of the Catholic Church in omitting the Second Commandment. The heading at the beginning of the chapter is "The Ten Commandments." As explained in Chapter 20, verses 4, 5 and 6:

4. Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth. 5. Thou shalt not adore them, nor serve them: I am the Lord thy God, mighty, jealous, visiting the iniquity of the

fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me: 6. And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. In order to omit the Second Commandment from the Decalogue, not only must verses 8, 9 and 10 be eliminated from Chapter 5 of the Book of Deuteronomy, but the above verses 4, 5 and 6 must also be deleted from this chapter as well as from other portions of the Bible. While the Catholic Catechism omits this Commandment from its arrangement of the Decalogue, the Catholic Encyclopedia admits its validity as part of the Ten Commandments and even its application to the prohibitions of making and worshiping graven images! The Catholic Church stands convicted not only by evidence taken from its own records, but by its own authorities. The listing of the Ten Commandments as they appear in the Douay Version of the Bible has additional value to us besides furnishing incontrovertible evidence in indicting the Catholic Church for deliberate deception in omitting the Second Commandment from the Decalogue. That image worship is a degrading superstition and was condemned by the early Church Fathers in scathing terms, is one of the amazing contradictions of Catholicism. St. Augustine, undoubtedly the foremost of the group, said: "He who worships an image turns the truth of God unto a lie." Even the crucifix, which is worshiped and adored today, is as much an idolatrous instrument as the image of a man or woman. It was introduced as part of the worship of the Church only in the latter part of the sixth century, and finally authorized by the Council of Constantinople, 692 A.D. The crucifix was unknown until the sixth century, and liberal Protestants still abhor its use as being beneath the dignity of an intelligent person. The Christians of France, Germany and England condemned the action of the Seventh General Council authorizing the worship of images, and foremost among the opponents was Charlemagne. It would require too lengthy an analysis to give the complete reason why the Roman Catholic Church violates this Commandment and omits it from its version of the Decalogue. Suffice it to say that when Constantine embraced Christianity, he found that the incurably superstitious would not relinquish their idols, and so the Church, after a feeble and unsuccessful effort, merely incorporated image worship as part of its ritual. The financial returns more than justified the compromise with "God's Word." In order to make up for the omission of the Second Commandment, the Catholic Church moved up the third and made it the second. It will be interesting, as we continue this comparison, to see for ourselves how they schemingly provided for the "ten." With the exception of using the first sentence of this Commandment as the first of the Decalogue, the Protestants and the Hebrews differ only slightly in the wording, which is not particularly important in this comparison. Protestant Third Commandment 7. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Catholic Third Commandment Remember thou keep the Sabbath Day. Hebrew Third Commandment 7. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.

For the first time there is perfect accord between the Protestants and Hebrews on one of the Commandments. The Catholics, however, in order to make up for the omission of the Second Commandment, merely move up the next one, making the fourth the third. There seems to be no justification for the mutilated form in which they express it, nor can I find a reason for its mutilation, except to avoid the embarrassing question of why it is to be observed.

Protestant Fourth Commandment Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Catholic Fourth Commandment Honor thy Father and thy Mother.

Hebrew Fourth Commandment Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work. But the seventh day is the sabbath in honour of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

While the difference between the Protestant and Hebrew versions is mostly italicized words, we find that again the Catholic Church has misplaced the Fifth Commandment and listed it as the fourth, with the same omissions. Protestant Fifth Commandment Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. Catholic Fifth Commandment Thou shalt not kill. Hebrew Fifth Commandment Honour thy father and thy mother; in order that thy days may be prolonged upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. [*26]

Again the Catholics have moved the sixth to the place of the fifth, whereas the Protestant and Hebrew differ only textually. Protestant Sixth Commandment Thou shalt not kill. Catholic Sixth Commandment Thou shalt not commit adultery. Hebrew Sixth Commandment Thou shalt not kill.

In this Commandment, the Protestants and the Hebrews are also in accord, while the Catholics have placed the Seventh Commandment in the position of the sixth. It is a notorious fact that when the Catholics wish to admonish their adherents against the violation of this Commandment, they never refer to it by number. Protestant Seventh Commandment Thou shalt not commit adultery. Catholic Seventh Commandment Thou shalt not steal. Hebrew Seventh Commandment Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Once more the Protestants and the Hebrews are in accord, while the Catholics continue to move up a Commandment in order to provide for the omission of the second.

In passing, I should like to mention that this Commandment was once placed before the one referring to killing because at one time adultery was considered the greater offense. In fact, in the oldest Biblical manuscript, a parchment known as the "Nash Manuscript," the prohibition of adultery precedes that of killing.

Protestant Eighth Commandment Thou shalt not steal.

Catholic Eighth Commandment Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

Hebrew Eighth Commandment Thou shalt not steal.

The agreement between the Protestant and Hebrew versions of this Commandment only emphasizes the falsity of the Catholic arrangement. Protestant Ninth Commandment Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. Catholic Ninth Commandment Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife. Hebrew Ninth Commandment Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

The significance here lies in the fact that the Catholics have taken a part of the Tenth Commandment and made it the ninth! Refer again to the 17th verse of the 20th Chapter of Exodus of the Douay Bible, and it will be plainly seen that this Commandment is in one complete sentence and does not lend itself to a division such as the Catholic Church made in order to cover up its duplicity by omitting the Second Commandment. I quote for the convenience of the reader: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house: neither shalt thou desire his wife, nor his servant, nor his handmaid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is his. If the Tenth Commandment were divided into two verses or two sentences in the Bible, its separation could have been defended on that score; but even such a flimsy excuse cannot be resorted to as a defense in this monumental piece of brazen deceit and hypocrisy. Certainly the Tenth Commandment does not admit of separation. It deals with but one human trait -- covetousness -- expressed in one complete sentence. In addition, the first line of the Commandment, in both the Hebrew and Protestant versions, reads, "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house..." The Catholic arrangement of the Decalogue makes "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife" the Ninth Commandment, and coveting the neighbour's property the tenth. Catholics apparently use the Deuteronomy version as the source for the Ninth and Tenth Commandments. By doing this, they are placed in the position of accepting the reason for the observance of the Sabbath as the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. "Confusion worse confounded!" Protestant Tenth Commandment Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's. Catholic Tenth Commandment Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's goods. Hebrew Tenth Commandment Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house; thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

While the Protestants and Hebrews agree as to the Tenth Commandment, the Catholic version continues with a mutilated arrangement, leaving out vital details of the Biblical text, essential to the understanding of this Commandment. Before turning our attention to an analysis of the ethical, moral and philosophical value of the Commandments, I should like to mention an incident which occurred just before a former mayor of the City of New York, James J. Walker, departed for an extended European trip. The Grand Street Boys' Association held a dinner in his honor. At its conclusion, as a token of the good will and harmony among those present, who comprised Protestants, Jews and Catholics, Supreme Court Justice Edward Riegelman presented to Mr. Walker, on behalf of the association, a golden scroll of the Ten Commandments written in Hebrew, with the following remark: "This is presented by Hebrews, through a Protestant, to a

Catholic as an expression of the plane upon which all hope to stand." If "the plane upon which all hope to stand" is no better than their agreement on the Ten Commandments, then they are all doomed to fall! I apologize for the distraction but it seemed to fit at the timenow back to the Anti-Christ! 10. The saints were to be handed over to him for a time, times and half a time. Daniel 7:25 NKJV .... and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. Daniel 7:25 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years. (See also Ezekiel 4:6) The papacy would be supreme in its persecution of the saints for 1260 years. The legally recognized supremacy of the Pope began in 538 AD when the Emperor Justinian elevated the Bishop of Rome to the position of Head of all Churches. This is known as the Edict of Justinian. Adding 1260 years to 538 AD brings us to 1798, which is the year the Pope was deposed when the French General Berthier, under Napoleon, led him into captivity. Napoleon apparently tried to crush the papacy and about eighteen months later the Pope died in exile in Valence, France. This act ended papal power in terms of enforcing papal decrees. The papal system has placed itself in the place of Jesus Christ on earth, and claims to be able to mediate between man and God. The great reformers were all united in their recognition of papal Rome as the antichrist power, and the reformation was the result of this recognition. By separating from Rome, the Bible was made available again to mankind, and many a reformer was willing to die rather than to deny its sacred pages. But the Bible also predicts that this same power will continue to reign until the end and will again enforce its decree contrary to the dictates of God. 11. It shall devour the whole earth Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. Daniel 7:23 Papal Rome was to receive the same supremacy it enjoyed in the Middle Ages over the nations of Europe on an international scale at the end of time. This amazing prophecy is being fulfilled to the letter, and in the corridors of diplomacy and through the resolutions adopted by the world governing bodies, papal standards and decrees will once again be accepted as laws of nations. The leaders of the world have granted Rome the recognition she desires and have hailed her as the "moral superpower." They have credited Rome with bringing communism to an end and religious bodies are accepting papal supremacy in religious affairs. However, Pagan Rome did not fulfill this prophecy to the letter. As seen in the sixth identifying feature, the little horn power was that component arising out of the Roman Empire which was to be different from all the others, and it is this different power which was eventually to devour the whole earth. The prophecy predicts that the little horn would obtain power over all the kings of the world, referring to all the political entities existing at the end of time. 12. It shall reign until the Ancient of Days comes ... until the Ancient of Days came, and a judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. Daniel 7:22 This is one of the most profound prophecies concerning the antichrist. The antichrist was to arise before 538 AD (the final date for the uprooting of three of the ten initial kingdoms arising out of the Roman Empire), and was to prevail until the Ancient of Days came - a reference to the second coming of Christ and His battle with Satan. No individual could therefore fulfill this prophecy, and only a power could achieve such longevity. Since it is identified as a horn, or a king or kingdom according to the Biblical definition, we must be dealing with a kingdom and its rulers that has been around for more than a millennium and a half. Papal supremacy in the Middle Ages was temporarily suppressed in 1798 when Napoleon invaded Rome, and the pope was taken captive and exiled. Rome lost its sovereignty, but regained it again in 1929, when Mussolini returned the papal states to the papacy. The Bible predicts that the little horn power would again reach the supremacy that it enjoyed in the Middle Ages. The fact that the little horn power was to exist until the Ancient of Days comes makes it impossible for the commonly accepted view that Antiochus Epiphanes, a king from the Selucid Dynasty of Greece who desecrated the

temple at Jerusalem, could have been the antichrist. This commonly accepted view of preterists is further made impossible in that Jesus, Paul, and John all speak of the antichrist as a future power. Only the papacy spans the time frame outlined in Daniel 7. 13. Its dominion will be taken away But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. Daniel 7:26 The good news is that we are all acutely aware of is that God will triumph. When Christ returns, this power will be destroyed and God will set up His kingdom which will never be destroyed and in which there will no longer be any persecution. There will be no more sickness and God will wipe away every tear.

The dates of Jesus birth & death

Jesus was born on Tishri10, 2 BCE (October 9, 2BC) Jesus died on Good Friday, 33Nisan14 (April 1, 33AD) The Quarterly Journal of Royal Astronomical Society 32, (Sept. 1991), pp 301-304 says: Newton began by dating the baptism of Christ in AD 29 during the 15th year of Tiberius Caesar (Luke 3:1, 21). He then cited evidence for a total of five (rather than four) Passovers during the ministry, implying an AD 34 crucifixion. Then Newton did the calendrical analysis almost exactly as has been done since: determining in which years the crucifixion day, 14 Nisan on the Judean calendar, could have been a Friday (John 19:14, 42)... Thus, Newton first narrowed the possible years (for crucifixion) down to AD 33 and AD 34; had he preferred AD 33, his reasoning would probably have been researched sooner because that date now appears to be correct. 1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was district ruler of Galilee, but Philip his brother was district ruler of the country of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was district ruler of Abilene, 2 in the days of chief priest Annas and of Caiaphas, God's declaration came to John the son of Zechariah in the wilderness. 3 So he came into all the country around the Jordan, preaching baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins (Luke 3). 21 Now when all the people were baptized, Jesus also was baptized (Luke 3). We know that Augustus Caesar died on 19 August 14 CE (Julian calendar). Tiberius became Princeps at that time. So his first regnal year was 15 CE (he became Pontifex Maximus on March 10th 15 CE. So his 15th regnal year was 29 CE (Cambridge Ancient History). So this was the year in which John started baptizing. Now both John and Jesus were under the Law of Moses, which stated as regards all priests that: 3 From 30 years old upward to 50 years old, all those going into the service group to do the work in the tent of meeting (Numbers 4). So the Hebrew year starting Nisan 29 CE would have been Johns 30th year, since he had to start his priestly duties then. So he would have been born in the year starting Nisan 2 BCE. A Jew was considered one year old for the whole of his first year, which was the first year in which he was alive on Nisan1. Now we can work out the precise month in which John was born as follows: 5 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there happened to be a certain priest named Zechariah of the division of Abijah, and he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth (Luke 1). 13 However, the angel said to him: Have no fear, Zechariah, because your supplication has been favourably heard, and your wife Elizabeth will become mother to a son to you, and you are to call his name John (Luke 1). 23 When now the days of his public service were fulfilled, he went off to his home. 24 But after these days Elizabeth, his wife, became pregnant (Luke 1). Now we have been told here that Elizabeth conceived after the days of service of Zechariah at the temple. So we should

be able to deduce when these days of service were, in order for this scripture to be of any use to us. Well, Zechariah was in the priestly division of Abijah, which was the 8th out of 24 priestly divisions which spanned the 12 months of the Hebrew year: 3 And David, and Zadok from the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech from the sons of Ithamar proceeded to make divisions of them for their office in their service (1 Chronicles 24). 7 And the lot proceeded to come out: the first for Jehoiarib; for Jedaiah the 2nd, 8 for Harim the 3rd, for Seorim the 4th, 9 for Malchijah the 5th, for Mijamin the 6th, 10 for Hakkoz the 7th, for Abijah the 8th (1 Chronicles 24). So obviously each service period was half a month long or 15 days long, so that 24 of them spanned the 360 day Biblical Lunar Calendar (BLC) year. So the 8th division would be the last half of the 4th month in the Hebrew year which was Tammuz. So Elizabeth, who conceived after these days, must have fallen pregnant early in the 5th Hebrew month of Ab. Next we read: 57 The time now became due for Elizabeth to give birth, and she became mother to a son (Luke 1). This is really an incredible scripture. The Holy Spirit is telling us that John the Baptist was a full term baby!! Obviously this is because the Holy Spirit wants us to use this information in a chronological calculation for the birth of John. Look! God's spirit wants us to use our heads! To serve him with our whole minds! 37 He said to him: You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind (Matthew 22). So her pregnancy was of standard duration, i.e. 266 solar days from conception (Babydata.com). Now 3BCE Adar 30 was 9 March 2BCE Gregorian (from the BLC program). And 2BCE Nisan1 was 3 April 2 BCE. So there was an intercalary month at the end of this Hebrew year which is not represented by the BLC. Ab1 in 3BCE started at 6pm on July 13th 3BCE (Gregorian calendar). So 266 solar days after this was 5th April 2BCE which was Nisan3 2BCE. So Elizabeth would therefore have given birth at the beginning of Nisan in 2BC. But now we read that: 26 In her sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent forth from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth (Luke 1). 31 And, look! you will conceive in your womb and give birth to a son, and you are to call his name Jesus (Luke 1). 36 And, look! Elizabeth your relative has also herself conceived a son, in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her, the so-called barren woman; 37 because with God no declaration will be an impossibility (Luke 1). She fell pregnant at the beginning of Ab, so her first month by Hebrew counting was Elul. So her sixth month was Shebat 3BCE. So Mary conceived in Shebat, which ran from 9th January to 7th February 2BCE. She therefore gave birth around 266 solar days later, between October 6th and November 4th 2BCE. This was between Tishri7 and Heshvan6 2BCE. But during this period we find Tishri10, the festival of the atonement day. And what better day for Jesus, who was the greater atonement sacrifice to be born on? 27 However, on the 10th of this 7th month is the day of atonement. A holy convention should take place for you, and you must afflict your souls and present an offering made by fire to Jehovah (Leviticus 23). We have assumed that Jesus too was a full term baby, but he was a sinless son of God, an unblemished lamb, so the concept of his being either late or premature is a non starter. We have only proved that Jesus was born between Tishri 7 and Heshvan 6, but since he certainly was the greater atonement sacrifice, Tishri10 is the only sensible option for his birth. We shall see that he was actually born on this day as described from the Midst Prophecy. Jesus too, being under law, would then have to start his priestly duties, his ministry, in his 30th year, which ran from 29Nisan to 29Adar as did Johns. But how long did his ministry last? Jesus ministry contained at least 3 Passover festivals, which were annual festivals held on Nisan14 (around easter). They are all mentioned in the Gospel of John: 23 However, when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, at its festival, many people put their faith in his name, viewing his signs that he was performing (John 2).

4 Now the passover, the festival of the Jews, was near (John 6). This means it is within days because: 13 Now the passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem (John 2). relates to the Passover described in John 2:23 and people went up to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover just days before the Passover. 55 Now the passover of the Jews was near, and many people went up out of the country to Jerusalem before the passover in order to cleanse themselves ceremonially (John 11). This is the Passover described in John 13:1: 1 Now, because he knew before the festival of the passover that his hour had come for him to move out of this world to the Father, Jesus, having loved his own that were in the world, loved them to the end (John 13). But there is a further possible Passover mentioned; a fourth one: 1 After these things there was a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem (John 5). This festival might have been the Passover, or it could have been one of the other two annual festivals which required a presence at the temple. So his ministry included 3 or 4 Passovers and so was between 2 and 4 years long. So this means that Jesus died on good Friday in 31,32,33, at the outside we also consider 30, 34 AD. Unlike Newton, we have the advantage of computers, so we can calculate with relative ease in which of the 5 cases above the Passover day Nisan14 (Good Friday) was actually a Friday. The Passover on which Jesus died ran from 6pm Thursday to 6pm Friday and Jesus died at the ninth hour on Friday, which was 3pm: 33 When it became the 6th hour a darkness fell over the whole land until the 9th hour. 34 And at the 9th hour Jesus called out with a loud voice: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? which means, when translated: My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? (Mark 15). 31 Then the Jews, since it was Preparation, in order that the bodies might not remain upon the torture stakes on the Sabbath, (for the day of that Sabbath was a great one,) requested Pilate to have their legs broken and the [bodies] taken away (John 19). A great Sabbath was a Sabbath as defined by a festival, which was also a Sabbath by reason of being the 7th day of a week. In this case, Nisan 15 was the first Sabbath of the festival of cakes, and the Jews have Friday 6pm to Saturday 6pm as their weekly Sabbath. Using the BLC, we find the following: Hebrew Day 30 Nisan15 31 Nisan15 32 Nisan15 33 Nisan15 34 Nisan15 Starts 6pm on Thursday Tuesday Sunday Friday Wednesday

So 33 AD is the only candidate. So Jesus died on 33Nisan14. Now the darkness for 3 hours from 12:00 to 15:00 Jerusalem time cannot have been a solar eclipse because these never last longer than 10 minutes. But there was a partial lunar eclipse on 33Nisan14 lasting 86 minutes with its maximum effect at 15:01 GMT or 17:01 Friday Jerusalem time. This was April 1 Gregorian, and April 3 Julian: (http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/LEcat/LE0001-0100.html). So this eclipse started just after Jesus died, and covered the period when Judas, who was possessed by Satan, committed suicide. Satan is symbolized by the moon, a dead and poor reflection of the Sun which symbolizes Jesus: I am the light of the World (John 8:12). It everyone who has seen it knows that a lunar eclipse could result in the moon looking blood red in color (Joel 2:31). In conclusion Jesus was born on Tishri 10, 2BCE, and he died on Nisan14, 33CE at 15:00 Jerusalem time. His life was therefore 33 years and 6 months long. This corresponds precisely with the first man, Adams. Michaelmas Day Do not think that we are working out anything that mankind has not known before here. Firstly, Michaelmas is another term for Christmas, and so the birth of Michael and the birth of Christ were related sometime back in the distant past. Secondly Michaelmas day is the 29th of September in the Catholic calendar. This is Tishri10 if the Passover falls on April 6th. So ancient traditions had already given very strong evidence that Jesus is Michael and that he was born on Tishri10. This means there has been a deliberate obfuscation by the church of the identity of Jesus as Michael and a deliberate changing of the day of his birth, in order to Christianize the pagan midwinter longest day of the year illumination festival as explained in detail in section 241 of the True Bible Code. Technical note on Daniel 9 For a more in depth analysis of this great prophecy of Daniel - see [150]. 24 There are 70 sevens that have been determined upon your people and upon your holy city, in order to terminate the transgression, and to finish off sin, and to make atonement for error, and to bring in righteousness for times indefinite, and to imprint a seal upon vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies (Daniel 9). 25 And you should know and have the insight [that] from the going forth of [the] word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah [the] Leader, there will be 7 sevens, also 62 sevens. She will return and be actually rebuilt, with a public square and moat, but in the straits of the times (Daniel 9). 27 And he must keep [the] covenant in force for the many/the great ones ( ) one seven; and at the half of the seven he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease (Daniel 9). From this it is apparent that this one seven of verse 27 occurs after the 69 sevens of verse 25 making the total of 70 sevens in verse 24. So sacrifice was ended 3 cycles/units after the Messiah, the leader turned up. But sacrifices under law were ended by Jesus death: 12 But this [man] offered one sacrifice for sins perpetually and sat down at the right hand of God (Hebrews 10). 14 And blotted out the handwritten document against us, which consisted of decrees and which was in opposition to us; and He has taken it out of the way by nailing it to the torture stake (Colossians 2). So this death was in the middle of a period of 7 somethings which started with his appearance and during which a covenant was still in force. This covenant was the Land and Circumcision Covenant, wherein God promised to be God to Abrahams physical seed, who would have Canaan as their land, and he would not be their God alone, but they would be his only official people if they became circumcised: 8 And I will give to you and to your seed after you the land of your alien residences, even the entire land of Canaan, for a possession to time indefinite; and I will prove myself God to them (Genesis 17). This exclusive arrangement for Abrahams physical seed, whereby God promised to be: God to them, ended when the first Gentile was admitted to be Abrahams seed at the Conversion of Cornelius in Acts 10. The Ethiopian Eunuch who was baptised by Philip in Acts 8, was baptised in water, and had been worshipping in Jerusalem, so must have been a

proselyte. What we are saying is that the poor man must have been circumcised as well as being a Eunuch!!! So since we know that Jesus ministry contained 4 passovers it is apparent that the sevens are 7 years, and his ministry was 3 years long. So he was baptised in 29Tishri and Cornelius was converted in 36Tishri. Technical note on the date of Jesus death: According to http://riemann.usno.navy.mil./AA/data/docs/SpringPhenom.html, the Vernal Equinox in 34 CE was on March 22nd at 9 pm Julian Calendar. So its 9pm, March 20th in 34 CE Gregorian Calendar. We assume that the Spring Equinox falls between 6pm March 20th and 6pm March 21st in the BLC program. So thats OK. There are some theologians that think that Jesus died in 30, but they base their argument on Luke 3:1 being wrong because Herod (who tried to kill Jesus) was thought to have died in 4BC. You cannot use this kind of reasoning on the holy book. Once you decide that Luke 3:1 is wrong, then why not decide that one of the 10 commandments were wrong! But if they were right then Jesus would be born 4,000 years after 4004 BC, the date that Archbishop Ussher calculated for the birth of Adam (incorrectly), which seemed to be neat and tidy to them. His Chronology was printed in many early King James bibles. John Pratt (The Planetarian, vol. 19, no. 4, Dec. 1990, pp. 8-14) gives good evidence that Herod died in 1 AD. http://johnpratt.com/items/docs/herod/herod.html. In any event, if Luke is wrong we are wasting our time studying the bible. Barr, James, 1985.

The Midst Prophecy

Jesus died in the exact centre of the First Abrahamic Covenant, the mid point between its inauguration and the end of Satan's system, the last day of entry into the 1AC. This can be generalized to: Jesus is temporally central in his 'salvation activities' Some religions believe that the First Abrahamic Covenant of Genesis 12 lasts into the Kingdom of God. Well it is true that its blessing, which is to be a citizen of the Kingdom of God, continues through the kingdom of God, but it is not possible to enter into the covenant once the Kingdom of God has started. For it is a covenant of faith. The sons of the 1AC (First Abrahamic Covenant) are the sons of the faith of Abraham. They must put faith in a kingdom that has not yet arrived. 12 and a father of circumcised offspring, not only to those who adhere to circumcision, but also to those who walk orderly in the footsteps of that faith while in the uncircumcised state which our father Abraham had (Romans 4). And faith is the evident demonstration of realities which are not beheld (Hebrews 11:1). So once they are beheld, faith is no longer necessary to see them! So once the kingdom becomes visible it is certainly too late to join the 1AC. But since the kingdom did not come with striking observableness (Luke 17:20), there is a period after it has started when you still need faith, but actually it is too late to join the 1AC. This is because Abraham crossed the Euphrates leaving the land of the Chaldeans, the land of Babylonia and entering the promised land through water. He stopped getting wet when he set foot on the promised land of Greater Canaan, on the other side of the Euphrates. So once we enter the Kingdom of God, we can no longer enter into the 1AC (First Abrahamic Covenant). We all enter the 1AC through a water baptism conducted by the angels. They baptize us as a result of our faith not necessarily in Jesus, but in God. Symbolically Chaldea is the world, and the promised land is not Canaan but is the kingdom of God. The Euphrates is the baptism into the 1AC and Abraham is himself and his 1AC progeny. All of these enter the Euphrates from Chaldea, the world, not from Canaan, the promised land. So entry to the 1AC must be from the world, so that entry ended at the end of the world. That is the bad news. The good news is that 50% of mankind had been baptized by the angels by then. These ones are the sheep whom Jesus will separate and rapture from Zoar. The Hebrew and Greek words: and and : all mean: midst, middle, centre, mid-point among or within depending on the context. When preceded by 'in', they mean 'in the midst of'.

45 And I will tabernacle in the midst () of the sons of Israel, and I will prove to be their God. 46 And they will certainly know that I am Jehovah their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt that I may tabernacle in the midst () of them. I am Jehovah their God (Exodus 29). Here, God resides among the sons of Israel in the Tabernacle, the first moveable temple of God. 2 In the midst () of the years Oh bring it to life! In the midst () of the years may you make it known (Habakkuk 3). In the middle of a period of years, something is resurrected, something is made known! 15 A prophet from your own midst (), from your brothers, like me, is what Jehovah your God will raise up for you ......... 18 A prophet I shall raise up for them from the midst () of their brothers, like you, and I shall indeed put my words in his mouth (Deuteronomy 18). This prophet was Jesus, he was raised up in the middle of his brothers! 3 And he said to the man with the withered hand: Get up and come to the centre ( Jesus positioned himself in the centre. 27 I am in your midst ( ) as the one ministering (Luke 22). 26 John answered them, saying: I baptize in water. In the middle ( know (John 1). ) of you one is standing whom you do not ) (Mark 3).

John baptized into the first Elijah Covenant (the 1EC) which was a subcovenant of the Isaaic Church Covenant (the ICC) see I29, but he said to the Pharisees... 9 Do not presume to say to yourselves, as a father we have Abraham. For I say to you that God is able to raise children to Abraham from these stones (Matthew 3). John meant that God can make children of faith of Abraham, sons of the 1AC, from the stones of the church, who can baptize people in water as John did. The stones of a Christian church are not made of rock but are humans who if sanctified in holy spirit are living stones, and if merely water baptized, are dead stones. But everyone in the church is a stone! And every church stone can make children to Abraham. This procreative capability is in fact the very definition of a true Christian religion. So John tells us that Jesus stands in the middle of the sons of the 1AC. And Habakkuk tells us that, 'in the midst of the years' something is brought to life and something is made known. Well Jesus was brought to life and Gods plan for salvation was made known by him, so he is the something. So Jesus was resurrected and he made something known in the middle of a period of years to do with the sons of the 1AC. Plainly these years are the years of the 1AC. The climax of Jesus ministry, was his death, and in fact Jesus died in the middle of the years of the 1AC. Of course he was raised 3 days later inclusively. But Habakkuk said in the midst of the years bring it to life, so he was speaking in years not in days. Now we know that the 1AC started in 1943Nisan, when Abraham Crossed the Euphrates, and that Jesus died and was resurrected in 33 Nisan, precisely Hebrew 1975 years later. So Armageddon is a further 1975 years after Jesus' death, i.e. 2008Nisan. But we know that Immanuel, who was Jesus, the 30 year old non adamic human, was transferred so as not to see death at his baptism on 29Tishri10, with the entrance of Michael. His body, a slaves form, was taken and used by Michael during his ministry. It became the validation sacrifice for the 1AC - see I29. Jesus died 3 years after his baptism on 33Nisan14. This was when his fleshly body validated the 1AC. His angelic body validated something much greater, ransoming Adam's angelic body, see I28. We know that the Jews left Egypt on 1513Nisan14 for the promised land, so it would be likely that Abraham left Mesopotamia for crossing the Euphrates into greater Canaan, the promised land, 430 years earlier on the same day, since we know it was the same month, that would be 1943Nisan14. So since we believe in the perfection of God, we trust that his Midst Prophecy will be exact to the day of the BLC. Now since Abraham crossed the Euphrates on 1943Nisan14, and since Jesus died on 33Nisan14, we deduce that entrance into the 1AC ends on 2008Nisan14, which is the last day of the world.

Now beloved reader, can you see the great symbolism of this prophecy? For God's plan to save mankind rests entirely on the shoulders of one man, Jesus Christ. And in the case of those born after 1943BC, all are blessed through the 1AC. The 1AC rests entirely on the validation sacrifice that Jesus made as Michael. So given that the whole covenant is supported by one man, where should we place him underneath it to balance it all upon his shoulders? Obviously 'dead' centre by the principle of the see saw. So here it is: Nisan 14, 1943 BCE Nisan 14, 33CE Nisan14, 2008 CE Covenant inaugurated Jesus' sacrifice End of this system X________________________________________________X 1975 BLC Years X 1975 BLC Years So the end of the world is 2008 April20/21. Actually the Kingdom of God starts on the 3rd day counting exclusively, as in the case of all system changes of God, following after the pattern of the eviction from Eden, this being 2008 April23/24. And Armageddon does not start until after God's people reach Zoar on 2008Heshvan7 - see U154, U163. For the Kingdom of God is the 1,000 year 'day' of destruction of ungodly men and judgment of many of those who enter it. 7 But by the same word the heavens and the earth that are now stored up for fire and are being reserved to the day of judgment and of destruction of the ungodly men. 8 However, let this one fact not be escaping your notice, beloved ones, that one day is with Jehovah as 1,000 years and 1,000 years as one day (2 Peter 3). So: Cry out shrilly and shout for joy! Oh you inhabitress of Zion, for great in the MIDST of you is the Holy one of Israel (Isaiah 12:6). So now we can see the greater meaning, the word symbolic meaning of Gods words to Moses: 45 And I will tabernacle in the midst () of the sons of Israel, and I will prove to be their God. 46 And they will certainly know that I am Jehovah their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt that I may tabernacle in the midst () of them. I am Jehovah their God (Exodus 29). Literally, God resides among the sons of Israel in the Tabernacle, the first moveable temple of God. In the word symbolism, his son Jesus resides among men in the midst of the First Abrahamic Covenant. For the repetition in verse 46 of the information contained in verse 45 has power. It has power through a greater symbolic meaning. The central position of Jesus death in the midst of the Abrahamic covenant represents his pivotal and sole role as saviour of mankind through the Abrahamic covenant. Because if one wishes to support something by only one support then one has to put that support exactly in the centre of the thing. In other words the whole plan to save men is resting upon the shoulders of just one man, Jesus, and therefore he must be in the middle of this plan by a spiritual application of the principle of a see-saw. Is this not a wonderful symbolism? Jesus is always temporally central in his activities, this discovery is quite a powerful tool in bible Chronology. Here are some further examples of the Midst Prophecy 70th Week of Daniel 9:27 Tishri10, 29CE Nisan 14, 33CE Tishri18, 36CE Jesus Baptised Jesus' sacrifice LCC ends X________________________________________________X 1264 days X 1264 days 3950 years in 1AC 1943Nisan14 3950 years in 1AC start Nisan 14, 33CE 2008Nisan14 God's true people Exodus to Kingdom enter Christian system God's system X________________________________________________X 1975 years X 1975 years 430 years in Egypt 1943Nisan14 430 years in 'Egypt' start 1728Nisan Jacob enters Egypt 1513Nisan14 Exodus

This is witnessed to in the tent cloths on the tabernacle. There is a further witness to the temporal centredness of Jesus, in the Arrival of Jacob in Egypt. Jesus' body in Judea 2Tishri10 BC 33Nisan16 66Tishri22 (Cestius at Gabao) Jesus' body enters Jesus' body enters Body flees Judea to mountians of Perea Bethlehem of Judea Christian system in Judea Jerusalem surrounded by encamped armies X_____________________________________________X 33 years 6 days X 33 years 6 days Jesus' body in Jerusalem 2 Heshvan 33 Iyyar 66Heshvan Jesus' body in temple on Jesus' spirit ascends Cestius enters temple and leaves 41st day, firstborn offering from human in Jerusalem Disgusting thing in holy place X________________________________________________X 33 years X 33 years 20 Furthermore, when you see Jerusalem surrounded by encamped armies, then know that the desolating of her has drawn near. 21 Then let those in Judea begin fleeing to the mountains, and let those in the midst of her withdraw, and let those in the country places not enter into her (Luke 21). 15 Therefore, when you catch sight of the disgusting thing that causes desolation, as spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in a holy place, (let the reader use discernment,) 16 then let those in Judea begin fleeing to the mountains (Matthew 24). So if we deduce that Jesus was born on -2Tishri10 by the fundamental pattern - see section [41], then we can use Jesus body as another example of the temporal centeredness of the Christ. Because the temple of Jesus body, which is the congregation of living new covenant saints became exclusive as the true religion on 33Nisan16, at the mid point of the existence of Jesus body (physical and spiritual) in Judea. Alternatively we can apply the midst prophecy to Jesus body in Judea and deduce that he must have been born on -2Tishri10. As regards the timing of Jacob's entrance into the land of Egypt in the middle of the 430 years, consider: 17 At this Abraham fell upon his face and began to laugh and to say in his heart: Will a man 100 years old have a child born, and will Sarah, yes, will a woman 90 years old give birth? (Genesis 17). 26 And after that his brother came out and his hand was holding onto the heel of Esau; so he called his name Jacob. And Isaac was 60 years old at her giving them birth (Genesis 25). 9 So Jacob said to Pharaoh: The days of the years of my alien residences are 130 years. Few and distressing the days of the years of my life have proved, and they have not reached the days of the years of the lives of my fathers in the days of their alien residences (Genesis 47). So Isaac was born when Abraham was 100 i.e. 25 years after 1943 BC, i.e.1918 BC, and Jacob was born 60 years later

in 1858 BC and he entered Egypt 130 years later in 1728 BC (things count backwards BC!). Well, the greater exodus out of the greater Egypt occurs at Armageddon, thanks to the efforts of the greater Jacob who is Jesus Christ. So just as Jacob and his family came into the land of Egypt in the middle of the 430 year period starting from the validation of the first Abrahamic covenant and ending with the Exodus from Egypt. Jesus and his family, came into the Christian administration in the middle of the 3950 year period starting from the validation of the first Abrahamic covenant and ending with the Exodus from this system at Armageddon. In other words, just as physical Jacob came into Egypt in the middle of the dwelling of the physical sons of Israel in the 'land' of physical Egypt, so Jesus Christ, the spiritual Jacob, came into spiritual Egypt (the world) in the middle of the dwelling of the spiritual seed, the true seed of Abraham, therein. This dwelling started with Abraham himself, when he crossed the river Euphrates entering and inaugurating the 1AC, and ends at Armageddon. 9 It is like Moses said: Thus Jehovah God made to grow out of the ground every tree desirable to one's sight and good for food, and also the tree of life in the middle of the Garden (Genesis 2). This is our gift to you the reader, to convince you that there is a newer covenant and a new baptism following after the first 'new' covenant and the baptism of the heavenly brothers. It is a covenant of gifts and a covenant of sacrificial smoke and a covenant of knots and difficult questions (Keturah means sacrificial smoke or knots, difficult questions). 1 Furthermore, Abraham again took a wife, and her name was Keturah (Genesis 25). 6 But to the sons of the concubines that Abraham had Abraham gave gifts. Then he sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was still alive, eastward, to the land of the East (Genesis 25). For the gift of the midst prophecy does not belong to us because interpretations belong to God. But it was given to Gordon and Tony by Jesus through a new covenant, a covenant inaugurated after the end of the heavenly baptism, the covenant for which we were sanctified. Incidentally interpretations do not belong to Jesus, not everything is his to give, although he himself gives everything: 23 This sitting down at my right hand and at my left is not mine to give but belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my father (Matthew 20). It was a belonging of Jehovah not a belonging of Jesus, just like his interpretations. But Jesus does give these things at the direction of Jehovah for he himself said to his disciples after his resurrection: 18 All authority has been given me in heaven and on earth (Matt 28:18). This was Jesus explaining that he now had Satan's firstborn rights. He has these permanently, whereas Satan had this authority temporarily, actually from the Big Bang until Adam's sin. John goes further into this logical minefield of who owns what and in what sense in John 16:12-16, we will leave the reader to puzzle it out. This is why FDS3 did not get this one and many others, because they were exclusive over Jesus, their master's, belongings, but they are certainly not exclusive over the belongings of God, which include his interpretations. Actually this was not why they did not get it, this was the legal justification in divine law for Jehovah to give it to whom he pleased. He desperately wanted to give it to FDS3, as did his son, their brother, but they did not want to know. Just as 50% of mankind will not want to know at Armageddon. Jehovah was still present in the Midst of the JAC after first presence of Jesus had ended 45 And I will tabernacle in the midst () of the sons of Israel, and I will prove to be their God. 46 And they will certainly know that I am Jehovah their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt that I may tabernacle in the midst () of them. I am Jehovah their God (Exodus 29). 32 And you must not profane my holy name, and I must be sanctified in the midst of the sons of Israel. I am Jehovah who is sanctifying (Leviticus 22) 34 And you must not defile the land in which you are dwelling, in the midst of which I am residing; for I Jehovah [Jehovah and his born again sons] am residing in the midst [temporal midst] of the sons of Israel [the sons of the JAC] (Numbers 35). Now the JAC was made sometime after Jacob left Laban in 1762 and Joseph had his dreams aged 17 in 1752. The first

presence ended in 123Nisan, having a gap of 3.5 years in it (Daniel 12 - U152). The middle of the JAC is therefore half way between 1762/1752BC and 2008Ab AD. That is just outside of the first presence. So Jehovah was still residing amongst mankind in a temple of saints, living stones, in fact EHC saints after the 1NC saints had left. There are 2008 years and 8 months from Adam's birth to Abraham's birth and from Jesus' birth to the rebirth of the last Adam as a human in the kingdom 4027Tishri 2018Sivan?

(Exodus 12).

Therefore he came and took his body away. 39 Nicodemus also, the man that came to him in the night the first time, came bringing a roll of myrrh and aloes, about 100 pounds [of it].

40 So they took the body of Jesus and bound it up with bandages with the spices, just the way the Jews have the custom of preparing for burial. 41 Incidentally, at the place where he was impaled there was a garden, and in the garden a new memorial tomb, in which no one had ever yet been laid. 42 There, then, on account of the preparation of the Jews, they laid Jesus, because the memorial tomb was nearby (John 19). So the body of Jesus is buried in the garden and embalmed with 100 pounds of oil from Nicodemus who asked how is one born again? Surely this refers to Jesus being born again as a human from his memorial tomb in the garden after 100 days of being in the Kingdom of God, the greater garden of Eden??

Jesus died dead centre of the 1AC measured by both the true solar and the ancient lunar calendar, the BLC (the one used before the Abib BLC was introduced in 1513Nisan) If we look at the First Abrahamic Covenant from the Solar Calendar (Gregorian) point of view we have 1943Nisan14 being April10 and 33Nisan14 being March31 and 2008Nisan14 being March21. So each half of the covenant is 1975 Solar years less 10 days. So Jesus died in the middle of the Abrahamic covenant to the day, as measured both by the BLC and the Gregorian (True Solar) Calendar!! We extend the Gregorian calendar backwards to 1943BC. It is just a true solar calendar. Nisan 14, 1943 BCE Nisan 14, 33CE Nisan14, 2008 CE April 10 1943 BCE March 31 33CE March 21 2008 CE Covenant inaugurated Jesus' sacrifice End of this system X________________________________________________X 1975 Years less 10 days X 1975 Years less 10 days 721,344 Solar days 721,344 Solar days Both half periods of the covenant are 10 days less than 1975 years with 493 Leap years and 20 Century years and 5 Quadracentury years. The Gregorian calendar has an extra day (a leap year) if the year is divisible by 4 and but not if the year is a Century year unless it is a Quadracentury year. So the total number of Solar days in the 1975 Gregorian years in question, in both cases is: 1975x365+494(Leap years 36 to 2008AD) - 20 (Century years) + 5(Quadracentury years) = 721,354 days 1975x365+494(Leap years 32 to 1941BC) - 20 (Century years) + 5(Quadracentury years) = 721,354 days To get a true Solar calendar BC, since there was no 0BC, we take 1BC as 0, and 101BC as -100 etc. So we just move the leap years one year back BC. 25 Also, there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth anguish of nations, not knowing the way out because of the roaring of the sea and [its] agitation (Luke 21). So Jesus' death is dead centre of the 1AC as measured by the Biblical lunar Calendar and as measured by a true Solar calendar. That is astonishing. Presumably there is some astral centeredness going on here too?? Here is a table of Passover dates showing how unlikely it is that a central lunar day is also a central solar day...

To download the BLC and check this for yourself - see Download. The Metonic cycle (discovered by the Greek mathematician - Meton) reveals that every 19 years, lunar and solar cycles/calendars coincide. In the table above we have 3 in 50 years (i.e. 1 in 16.666 years). But we started with a coinciding day so this pretty much confirms Meton's theory. So the Passover will be central in both the lunar and the solar calendars around 1 in every 19 years. So there was a 1 in 19 chance of that happening in the middle of the years of the Abrahamic Covenant and it did. The new ABLC has an intercalary second Nisan rather than an intercalary second Adar, since that is what we actually did, we circled around Jericho, in Nisan not in Adar, changing the calendar on what was 2008Iyyar22, to become 2008Nisan22. So the year of 2008 goes 2008Nisan, 2008Nisan2, 2008Iyyar. In this way the midst prophecy is still correct to the solar day and entrance to the Abrahamic Covenant did end on 2008Nisan14, which was 2008March21.

Joy for the Born Agains and comfort for the Trinitarians
The reader will know from sections [14], [14a], [14b] that God is a unique individual whose name is Jehovah and who exists in a spirit body and dwells in unapproachable light. They will know too that Jesus is a second unique individual who is an angelic son of God, a creation of God, a being who himself worships a God, who in his case is his angelic father. They will know that the Holy spirit is simply all of the loyal angels as a group, it is all of the holy spirits in fact. These things are very straightforward. But if the reader has accepted these understandings in circumstances where he or she used to believe that God was either Jesus or was 3 in 1, then hopefully he or she is feeling overjoyed in the holy spirit, if, that is, he or she is thinking spiritually. For great spiritual truths have been revealed to him/her. However, being realistic, given that the reader is human like the writer, he or she is more likely to be feeling a trifle foolish or possibly even angry that he or she has been so badly misled by his or her church into what amounts to idolatry of a non existent contrivance of man. Isaac Newton felt similarly and became distressed to the point of near mental breakdown as a result. He was a very sincere person a lover of the truth. But look! The scriptures are ambiguous over the deity, the divinity, of Christ. This ambiguity has lead to the misconception of the Trinity and the misconception that Jesus is God so that Mary is the Mother of God etc etc. The Good news for the reader who used to believe that Jesus is God is that Jesus was promoted when he died to be something more even than the firstborn son of God. Section [243] explains how actually Satan was the first angel that God created, but that Satan lost his birthright to Michael. One wonders whether he sold it for the equivalent of a bowl of red soup. [As an aside, we think that this bowl was the 6,000 year reign over mankind, that Michael was originally given because he agreed to ransom Adam. Although a part of this agreement between Satan and Michael would have to have been that Jesus would

only get the firstborn rights if he truly died as a ransom for Adam] We are going to deduce from the scriptures that Jesus became not only the firstborn and only begotten son of God at his resurrection on 33Nisan16 from his angelic death on 33Nisan14, but also he became divine, in fact he became our God alongside Jehovah at his resurrection. for the avoidance of doubt, we will prove that we should worship two God's now, Jesus and Jehovah, for the generosity and love of the Father is so great that he has given the whole family business to the Son. Yet since the two are in union one with another, the worship of the one is largely, but not entirely, the worship of the other. This does not mean that the pair of them have become a Binity!! It does mean that we should pray to either or both of them, and worship both of them. Indeed this is really why the name of God YHWH, Jehovah, Yahweh, does not appear anywhere in the New Testament, rather, the ambiguous, Lord, which title refers to both of them, replaces it. The Divinity of the Christ We owe thanks a certain International Bible Student, to Jesus and to God and to the holy spirit for this one. It all started like this: 27 Next he said to Thomas: Put your finger here, and see my hands, and take your hand and stick it into my side, and stop being unbelieving but become believing. 28 In answer Thomas said to him: My Lord and my God! (John 20). Lets us clear our minds of any preconceptions. Jesus did not rebuke Thomas for calling him his God. Jesus' response was: 29 Jesus said to him: Because you have seen me have you believed? Happy are those who do not see and yet believe (John 20) So Jesus did not deny and therefore by omission confirmed that he was God to Thomas. Then Paul tells us: 9 For this very reason also God exalted him to a superior position and kindly gave him the name that is above every [other] name, 10 so that in the name of Jesus every knee should bend of those in heaven and those on earth and those under the ground, 11 and every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2). Whereas Paul also says of Jehovah: 11 For it is written: As I live, says Jehovah, to me every knee will bend down, and every tongue will make open acknowledgment to God (Romans 14). So Jesus is getting the knee bending open acknowledgement that Jehovah is getting. But we read in Revelation that John fell down at the feet of the angel (not the angel Michael) who was showing him the vision twice: 11 At that I fell down before his feet to worship him. But he tells me: Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing to Jesus. Worship God; for the bearing witness to Jesus is what inspires prophesying (Revelation 19). 9 And there came one of the 7 angels who had the 7 bowls which were full of the 7 last plagues, and he spoke with me and said: Come here, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife. 10 So he carried me away in [the power of the] spirit to a great and lofty mountain, and he showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God (Revelation 21). 17 And, look! I am coming quickly. Happy is anyone observing the words of the prophecy of this scroll. (Says Jesus) 18 Well, I John was the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel that had been showing me these things. 19 But he tells me: Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who are prophets and of those who are observing the words of this scroll. Worship God (Revelation 22 - says the angel of Revelation 21:9,10). Now making an acknowledgement on one's knees is not necessarily worship, but the point is that the holy spirit stepped in

to prevent further idolatry in the case of John, so why did Jesus not rebuke Thomas? Then we have the dying words of Stephen, which echo precisely the dying words of Jesus. 59 And they went on casting stones at Stephen as he made appeal and said: Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. 60 Then, bending his knees, he cried out with a strong voice: Lord, do not charge this sin against them. And after saying this he fell asleep [in death] (Acts 7) 34 But Jesus was saying: Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. Furthermore, to distribute his garments, they cast lots (Luke 23). 46 And Jesus called with a loud voice and said: Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit. When he had said this, he expired (Luke 23). Now Jesus was the eternal Father of Stephen. So Stephen was saying precisely what Jesus said. Incidentally the 'Lord' of Acts 7:60 is Jesus because: 22 For the Father judges no one at all, but he has committed all the judging to the Son (John 5) And so the pleas for the non charging of sin would be made to Jesus not Jehovah. So here Stephen was making an audible prayer to his father Jesus, just as Jesus made to his father God at his death. Jesus said on the night of his death, after the last supper: 13 Also, whatever it is that you ask in my name, I will do this, in order that the Father may be glorified in connection with the Son. 14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it (John 14 Adapted from the Greek). In verse 13 the request is made of God, in verse 14 the request is made of Jesus. In both cases Jesus performs the request. However one cannot just pray to God and say to him things like: Please oh God look after my mother, I ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Because you need to be baptised into Jesus' precious name before you can act with the authority of that name before God or before anyone else. For example: 13 But certain ones of the roving Jews who practiced the casting out of demons also undertook to name the name of the Lord Jesus over those having the wicked spirits, saying: I solemnly charge you by Jesus whom Paul preaches. 14 Now there were seven sons of a certain Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, doing this. 15 But in answer the wicked spirit said to them: I know Jesus and I am acquainted with Paul; but who are you? 16 With that the man in whom the wicked spirit was leaped upon them, got the mastery of one after the other, and prevailed against them, so that they fled naked and wounded out of that house (Acts 9). Unless you are bearing Jesus' name you cannot use its authority. So now, those who are born again, baptised into the name of the son, parties to the ARC through the 3AC, those who have associated angels in heaven, those who themselves are God's sons, those who act and walk with a clear conscience before God despite their many sins, those who bask in his undeserved kindness, can pray to God in Jesus' name and can make requests of him in Jesus' name. They can also pray to Jesus, and make request of him. This is why Jesus said, when he was dying: 46 About the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? (Matthew 27) 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? which means, when translated: My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? The greater meaning being that FDS1 and FDS3 (who are both his wife and hence 'him' in the flesh) would cry out not to one God but to two Gods, namely Jehovah God and Jesus God, asking why they had forsaken them. The answer is because they have become corrupt in their idolatry of each other and so Jesus has appointed FDS2 and FDS4 respectively. Is it not the great irony and finesse of the true God, that in Jesus agony, his very words were inspired to declare that he was going to become a God to be worshipped by men, just like his dad. More evidence of this is found in the two recitals of the Lord's prayer in Matthew 6 and Luke 11: To the crowds on the mount 6 You, however, when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you.

7 But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. 8 So, do not make yourselves like them, for God your Father knows what things you are needing before ever you ask him. 9 you must pray, then, this way: 'Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. 10 Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth. 11 Give us today our bread for this day; 12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one.' 14 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; 15 whereas if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. 16 When you are fasting, stop becoming sad-faced like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Truly I say to you, They are having their reward in full. 17 But you, when fasting, grease your head and wash your face, 18 that you may appear to be fasting, not to men, but to your Father who is in secrecy; then your Father who is looking on in secrecy will repay you. In the literal meaning, 'your Father' is God. In the greater coded symbolic meaning: Your father who is in secret/secrecy is Jehovah (because he is in secret to men) Your father who looks on in secret/secrecy is Jesus (for those born again) (because he is not in secret to men - we have seen him) To his disciples 1 Now on the occasion of his being in a certain place praying, when he stopped, a certain one of his disciples said to him: Lord, teach us how to pray, just as John also taught his disciples. 2 Then he said to them: Whenever you pray, say, 'Father, let your name be sanctified. Let your kingdom come. 3 Give us our bread for the day according to the day's requirement. 4 And forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone that is in debt to us; and do not bring us into temptation (Luke 11). Since there are two gospel accounts of Jesus teaching various groups how to pray, we know by the Parallel Account Principle that there are two greater groups whom he teaches how to pray. Since in Matthew he was teaching the crowds and in Luke he was teaching his disciples, we already know what these two greater groups are more or less. If we play the usual spot the difference between Matthew 6 and Luke 11, we see that Matthew 6 mentions the will of the father being done and a delivering from evil but Luke 11 does not. This is because the particular disciples in the greater group of Luke are already delivered from evil by virtue of the blood of the Christ, and because the greater meaning of the prayer in Luke is a prayer to Jesus whose will is subordinate in will to the almighty. So here are the two prayers for the two groups. Any human can pray to God, and any born again Christian can also pray to Jesus. Amen. It is as Jesus himself prophesied: 19 Therefore, in answer, Jesus went on to say to them: Most truly I say to you, The Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner. 20 For the Father has affection for the Son and shows him all the things he himself does, and he will show him works greater than these, in order that you may marvel (John 5). So he will eventually listen to prayer and accept worship as his father does. This eventuality became a reality on 33Nisan16. Is worshipping Jesus Idolatry? 10 Then Jesus said to him: Go away, Satan! For it is written, It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service (Matthew 4). 8 In reply Jesus said to him: It is written, It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service (Luke 4). But this isnt what was written in the Masoretic Hebrew text of the old testament. The alone is not mentioned there: 13 Jehovah your God you should fear, and him you should serve, and by his name you should swear (Deuteronomy 6).

12 And now, O Israel, what is Jehovah your God asking of you but to fear Jehovah your God, so as to walk in all his ways and to love him and to serve Jehovah your God with all your heart and all your soul (Deuteronomy 10). 20 Jehovah your God you should fear. Him you should serve, and to him you should cling, and by his name you should make sworn statements (Deuteronomy 10) But in the LXX alone is mentioned in Deuteronomy 6:13. 13 The Lord your God you shall fear and him alone you shall render sacred service (Deuteronomy 6:13 LXX) Fear is something that would not only apply to God. Jesus is therefore indicating that worship can apply to more than one person. 23 For this night there stood near me an angel of the God to whom I belong and to whom I render sacred service (Acts 27). So there was only one God to whom Paul rendered sacred service in the literal meaning. But there are two Gods in the greater meaning by the Successive Descriptions Principle of the code. 9 For God, to whom I render sacred service with my spirit in connection with the good news about his Son, is my witness of how without ceasing I always make mention of you in my prayers (Romans 1) So that God is Jehovah. But worship (holy fear) is to Jesus too: 22 You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation originates with the Jews. 23 Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshipers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for, indeed, the Father is looking for suchlike ones to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit, and those worshipping him must worship with spirit and truth (John 4). The greater Father is Jesus, who is also to be worshipped, for the symbolism of John 4 - see [207]. Jesus is only God of those to whom he is the eternal father. Sacred service to God is obeying the laws of Jehovah. The commandments of the Christ are today a part of these laws. 12 This is my commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you (John 15:12). You do not need to be a God to make a commandment. But if a God makes a commandment and if you follow that commandment because you accept the God then you are worshipping that God and rendering to him sacred service. This brings us to the Greek word , which means 'to worship' or 'to do obeisance to'. When Jesus appeared to the two Mary's immediately after his resurrection we read: 9 And, look! Jesus met them and said: Good day! They approached and caught him by his feet and worshipped/did obeisance to him (Matthew 28). 10 At that I fell down before his feet to worship/do obeisance to him. But he tells me: Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing to Jesus. Worship/do obeisance to God; for the bearing witness to Jesus is what inspires prophesying (Revelation 19). 8 Well, I John was the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship/do obeisance before the feet of the angel that had been showing me these things. 9 But he tells me: Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who are prophets and of those who are observing the words of this scroll. Worship/do obeisance to God (Revelation 22) Now when you are clinging to someones feet in the cases of Revelation 19 and 22 above and Acts 10 below, it was considered worship by the angel/Peter and was therefore prohibited, so in the case of Mary and Mary in Matthew 28:9 it was worship by the No Coincidences Principle of the code. 25 As Peter entered, Cornelius met him, fell down at his feet and worshipped/did obeisance to him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: Rise; I myself am also a man (Acts 10). 16 However, the eleven disciples went into Galilee to the mountain where Jesus had arranged for them,

17 and when they saw him they worshipped/did obeisance, but some doubted. 18 And Jesus approached and spoke to them, saying: All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things (Matthew 28). If he has all of Gods authority then he is also to be worshipped. Observing commandments of God and Jesus which are not contradictory is worshipping both of them. So now we can understand why Isaiah said of the Christ: 6 For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9). He was to become a mighty God in the future. He became the only begotten son of God as follows. The angel Michael died on the stake. Satan committed suicide in Judas, and God allowed Satan to die as an angel at that time too. God himself then resurrected Michael, and then subsequently, Michael resurrected Satan. This then physically reversed their genealogy. David said in his song... 32 For who is a God besides Jehovah, And who is a rock besides our God? (2 Samuel). In the literal meaning at the time of the song, nobody. In the first word symbolic meaning, after the law, by the Binary Question Principle - Jesus. Now dear reader, are you still dim in your mind or are you becoming bright? Have you (in the case that you have not read it elsewhere) yet asked the question: If an angel can become a God, and if a man can become an angel, then can a man become a God? If you have, then you are blessed, for the holy spirit has the control of those sorts of realizations.

What About Christmas???

Traditions of Men 1 Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel : 2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. (Jer 10) When it comes to traditions, we only have to reach for the bible to learn what is and isnt acceptable in the eyes of Jehovah. We are given specific instructions as to what we are to celebrate and succinctly, we are given specific warnings as to what not to do with regard to traditions. The reason I started this section out with a scriptural passage is to demonstrate to you, the reader, that the views on this website are not based on personal biases but on the truth and discerning sound doctrines based solely on the scriptures themselves. The fundamental questions you as a Christian must ask is this: Who really profits from alienating the word of God. Do you seek to please men and persecute Christ as Saul did, or would you rather glorify God in righteousness through our Lord as Paul did? 13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: 14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. (Gal 1)

These same men whom Saul tried so hard to please confronted Jesus with a question regarding this very subject: 1 Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, 2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. (Mat 15) The whole reason for this scripture is to belabor the point that we are not to follow the traditions of our elders, but do as the bible tells us. One of the greatest traditions of the Christian masses is Christmas. There exist no scripture in the entire bible that commands us to keep this celebratory practice and in fact there is no mention of such a thing from any of the disciples. The harsh reality of this holiday (Named after "holy day") is that it is actually condemned by the scriptures as you will soon realize. Jesus was pretty stern with the Pharisees when he answered their question: Mt 15:3 3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. 5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; 6 And honor not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. So the Pharisees forsook Gods commandments in favor of their traditions. So what does God think of all this? We only need to look at Jesus' response to the Pharisees for the answer. 7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, 8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me. 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men. (Mat 15) Christmas is a perfect example of honoring God with our lips but it is one of many vain doctrines and commandments of men. As stated before, there are no scriptures that tell us to celebrate the birth or death of any one! It is especially insulting to both our Father in the heavens and His Son in the fact that a pagan ritual is used in the process! It is well known by many Christians that the Catholic traditions of Lent, Ash Wednesday, etc. are paganistic but most fail to recognize that the same types of pagan elements exist in the celebration of Christmas and Easter! The question we must ask is how did they start and why? Once we understand this we should be able to put the issue to rest once and for all. The following is a quote from the 2000 Encyclopedia Britannica, Volume 11; page 390. "During the later periods of Roman history, sun worship gained in importance and ultimately led to what has been called a 'solar monotheism.' Nearly all the gods of the period were possessed of solar qualities, and both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of solar deities. The feast of Sol and Victus (open unconquered Sun) on December 25th was celebrated with great joy, and eventually this date was taken over by the Christians as Christmas, the birthday of Christ." Notice how it says "both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of solar deities"? The Christians were apparently trying to get more converts so they tried to "paganize" the Messiah to make Him more attractive to pagans. They even officially brought the feast of the unconquered sun into their worship in 336 AD. This in a nutshell is the origin of Christmas. But the real question is, "Who converted who?" Do we murder to bring a murderer to Christ? Do we rape to bring a rapist to the Messiah? It is true that by 336AD, the mainstream beliefs of Christianity were already that far from the truth the apostles suffered so much to teach. Despite all of this, shouldn't true believers be teaching the unbelievers the true way of Jehovah rather than the unbelievers teaching believers these pagan customs and practices? May it always be! Yet, the so called "Christians" not only learned these heathen ways, they also incorporated them into their worship. We are told to look into these things and reprove them:

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them]. (Eph 5) Today, Christmas is the most popular holiday among Christians however, what is popular is not always right and what is right is not always popular. Christmas means 'mass for Christ'. The name of the holiday is much newer than the holiday itself. The customs associated with Christmas (Not Christmas itself), in one form or another, have been celebrated for literally thousands of years. 'Christmas' is just a new name for an old pagan holiday. There is no doubt that the customs that are associated with Christmas, as well as the idea of a deity being born on December 25th are of pagan origin. One need only look to an encyclopedia or even many local newspapers in the 12th month of the year to find this truth. The real issue is whether or not we should walk in these customs. I know many of you may be asking, "So what is so bad about it"? Isn't it just for the children? My question to you is "What should we be teaching our children"? The truth or a bevy of lies? The truth is that the Jesus was not born on December 25th, Do not make the mistake in thinking this information is new! Even though until recently the actual date of Jesus birth was not known, the catholic church knew it wasn't December 25th long before Christmas was introduced! The fact of the matter is, Jesus was born on 10Tishri2BCE. However December 25th is the birthday of nearly every pagan god ever invented! The pagan customs associated with Christmas are clearly condemned in the scriptures. Paganism and/or Idolatry is not only contrary to the Word of God, but downright blasphemous. The scriptures are very clear on this as you have already read in the beginning of this section: 1 Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel : 2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. (Jer 10) So here we have a scripture that is pretty clear to even the untrained bible decoder in its message. That being: LEARN NOT THE WAY OF THE HEATHEN. Its bad enough that people have not only learned it, but they have purposely incorporated it into a ritual of worship to the Christ!!! Until when will you stop piercing the very one who through His undeserved kindness and love for you suffered so greatly! Secondly, we are warned not to be dismayed at the signs of the heaven There is a specific reason this is stated here. History tells us that when people saw that the sun began to go further away from the earth and the days started growing shorter in the winter, the sun worshipping Gentiles were "dismayed", and feared that the sun would not return. So they held certain festivals just after the time of the Winter Solstice when it began to return and lengthen the days. This return of the sun is why December 25th is the birthday of so many solar deities. One of the customs of the pagans was to cut down a tree in the forest, fasten it with nails so it would not topple and then decorate it! Gee, does this sound familiar??? There are millions upon millions of so called "Christians" out there who to this day continue practicing this obvious abomination to God...mostly out of ignorance I would guess. For this tradition has been propagated by the church for hundreds of years giving the impression that it must not only be the right thing to do, but even the righteous thing to do also! This is a damning lie and woe to them that continue it even after knowing the truth about it. The scriptures cannot be any clearer. This is a tradition of men the kind both Jehovah and our Lord Christ Jesus warned us about on several occasions. I must ask you, is this the kind of thing you need a living prophet to come and explain to you? Should we not all pick up a bible and reprove each other from time to time? This custom of Christmas, along with other pagan rituals are clearly condemned in Jeremiahs passage but it does not end there. Their are many other customs associated with this holiday including mistletoe, the Yule log and of course one of Satans greatest accomplishments (in destroying the faith of our children) is Santa Claus. I like to refer to it as Satans Claws due to the powerful nature of the lie it bestows. Santa is portrayed as a bigger than life character that children actually learn to look up to in place of the true God of Israel.

Think about it. Parents purposely and deliberately lie to their children and tell them that they should fear Santa Claus because "he knows if you've been bad or good" when they should be telling them to fear Jehovah! These same parents also lie to their children about the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. Then they wonder why their children become liars and don't believe in the Messiah later on in life. Our children look up to us as parents and believe everything we say until they realize that we have been lying to them most of their life. It isnt a wonder our societies are becoming increasingly secular. How many commandments must we break? Are we not told that any one of them is like breaking all of them? The whole of Christmas and its traditions is a big pack of lies from the foundation up. Despite the warnings we are given regarding the activity of "worshipping" a tree and the "roots of traditions of men", it would seem continuing this practice widely accepted. The fact of the matter is, Santa does not exist, he is not coming to bring presents to our kids, flying reindeer dont exist, and the Messiah was not born on Dec 25th!!!! Did Jehovah not harshly condemn leaders who taught lies? So who is ultimately responsible for this holiday? Well we dont have to go far to answer that question for we all know who the father of the lie is. 44 You are from your father the Devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father. That one was a manslayer when he began, and he did not stand fast in the truth, because truth is not in him. When he speaks the lie, he speaks according to his own disposition, because he is a liar and the father of [the lie] (John 8). It's high time that we forsake these lies and abide in the truth! Let's forsake this foolish practice of yoking the Messiah who said "I am the TRUTH" together with lies, for He has nothing to do with lies. Lets be perfectly clear about this shall we!! 14 Blessed [are] they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 15 For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. (Rev 22) I am certainly aware that this kind of chastising will cause many to flinch and some to be down right contentious, but that can be expected because it is much easier to live with a convenient lie than to live with the inconvenient truth. But this is not about physical life, it is about judicial life. Those of us who do our best to understand the scriptures and abide by them are striving for judicial life and a chance to live in the Kingdom of God. Those who would rather live with the commandments of men for fear of losing their status, or power, or even having to live with ridicule and shame according to those very men should take heed. For the witness of God and the prophecy of scripture is alive and exerting power as you read this. I know you may be thinking, "Well I don't really worship the tree, so what is the harm"? Well, let's take this to the next level. Not only is it sinful in the eyes of Jehovah to practice these traditions of men, but it is also a sin to take the traditions of pagans and apply them to the worship of Jehovah (i.e. Christmas or Christ Mass). He starts out with a warning to the children of Israel.. 29 When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations from before thee, whither thou goest to possess them, and thou succeedest them, and dwellest in their land; 30 Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. (De 12) In other words, do not even ask how they served other gods for it may lead to idolatry! 31 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods. (De12) How plain can this get? "Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God:" It is abundantly clear. Do not worship Jehovah in that way, the way of the heathen! Do not add to His commandments and do not take away from His commandments. Both Christmas and Easter take pagan festivals and traditions and apply them to the worship of Jehovah and or His Christ. This is clearly condemned here. Would it be right to take a satanic holiday that Satanists have invented and then incorporate that holiday into the worship of Jehovah? Certainly not! Yet all paganism is born of Satanism. Satan is behind all pagan worship. And whatever god the idolaters worship, they are actually worshipping Satan.

20 Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to Elohim, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons. (1 Co 10) If you participate in these paganistic rituals, you are having fellowship with demons. So what might the ramifications be to those who continue this practice? Carefully consider this next verse: 21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lords table and of the table of demons. (1 Co 10) It is up to all of us as individuals to make the choice as to whether or not we can drink of His cup. So the question is: "Which table will you choose?" And remember: 19 We are aware that we are out of God, and the whole world is lying in the wicked one. (1 Jn 5) For a more in-depth look at the formal history of Christmas and other pagan holidays continue on. Please visit the links at the bottom of the page for more on this subject. The True Meaning of Christmas by Joel R.J. Tennuchi Christmas, is it really about Christ? Does it really signify the birth of our Lord and Savior? For the vast majority of people the question is really no question at all. Is Christmas about Christ "Of course it is! What could be more Christ like than Christmas? Isn't it Jesus birthday?" Others have begun to feel increasingly uncomfortable with the celebration of Christmas. When they look at the goings on that takes place around December 25th, there is an uneasy feeling that something is just not right. And yet they keep telling themselves, "Isn't Christmas Jesus' birthday? In my opinion, after deliberating about Christmas, I have come to a very powerful conclusion. There is nothing Christian about Christmas. Christmas is basically and essentially Pagan. If this thought comes as a shock to you, then I invite you to consider other the possibility that for you Christmas is a blind spot that needs some reexamination. To say that I am not impressed with the sentimental appeal of the holiday spirit would be a meaningful gesture. There is a certain appeal about this season of the year, the thought of family gatherings, dreaming of a White Christmas as Bing Crosby once wrote about, "chestnuts roasting on an open fire," "city streets, busy streets, dressed in festive cheer." No one with any sentimentality could escape a twinge of nostalgia when there's a feeling of Christmas in the air. Even the most hardened cynic can't stifle a softening childlike feeling of good will that lasts for a few days. Ive tried though very hard to understand the true meaning of Christmas, yet no matter how hard I try, I cant seem to grasp the element of trying to put Christ back into Christmas. Christmas as we know it today is a product of mass commercialization, it is a time where people forget the Christian aspect and in place add their own version. Well, this is not the case. I have undergone some research into the true meaning of Christmas and here in this article I ask you "What is the true meaning of Christmas?" When you get right down to its essence, what is Christmas? Where did it come from? How did it originate? What does it stand for now? The real question is the nature of the institution itself. I think you will be shocked if you evaluate the institution of Christmas realistically. What I'm asking you to do is lay aside your cultural prejudices and preferences, and approach this question with an open mind. Granted, that's hard to do. We are so snowed under a century of tradition and nostalgia that it's almost impossible for some people to look at the issue objectively at all. I'm asking you to put aside your preconceived notions, at least temporarily, to look honestly at this institution we call Christmas. Frankly, this article is calculated to disturb you, to make you think, and to cause you to change your actions if they are not consistent with the truth of the gospel. I. What is Christmas? What is the origin of Christmas? How did it begin? Were its beginnings pagan or Christian? There is no indication in the New Testament that the early Christians observed Christmas at all. It can be demonstrated in church history that, for probably the first 300 years after the birth of Christ, Christians knew nothing of Christmas celebration. It was only as the Church began to drift from apostolic doctrine and practice into corruption that Christmas began.

Where did it come from? Where did the drifting Church get the ideas and customs associated with Christmas today? The source of most of the basic forms of paganism in the ancient world can be traced back to the Babylonian "mysteries." All of the ancient cultures, Egypt, Greece, Rome, even India and China, had beliefs, traditions, practices, gods and goddesses that were related to those found in Babylon. The names were different, and different modifications were added, but basically the ancient religions were related and find their "purest" form in Babylonia . In the Old Testament Babylon stands as the epitome of everything that is godless and perverse. The greatest indignation suffered by God's people for their sins is to be carried away into Babylonian captivity, into the heart of the heathen world. In the New Testament, Babylon becomes the Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Empire corrupted the first true Christian church, and result was what is now called the Roman Catholic Church. Jesus advised his followers to be no part of the world, but his followers concluded a deal with the Roman Empire and became corrupt. The Roman Empire embodied the pagan beliefs and practices of ancient Babylon and is seen as the arch-enemy of God's people. What was to be the attitude of God's people toward this " Babylon " of their day? "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Rev. 18:4). But, did God's people hear the warning and separate themselves from Babylon ? Well yes as a matter of fact they did. When a command is written in Revelation it is followed, and those in the first church who loved the glory of God more than the glory of man, left it and joined the second church. St Peter was among them. He joined the second church found by St. Paul in 79Nisan. But those who remained in the new Babylon , the Roman Catholic church, the mother of all of the harlot churches continually compromised with Rome and became contaminated with pagan corruption. In 313 AD the Roman Emperor Constantine supposedly adopted the Christian faith and declared it to be the official religion of his realm. His embracing the Christian Church proved detrimental to true Christianity. Constantine retained the traditional pagan titles, and his coins still bore the figures and names of the old Roman Gods. This corrupted Church over time became "the Roman Catholic Church" and its method was to compromise with paganism in order to gain numbers to the congregation. Ever since, the Roman Catholic way of converting pagans to its style of worship has been to absorb them gradually, along with their idolatrous observances. The church was content to swell the number of nominal adherents by meeting paganism halfway. There were some valiant voices of protest who bitterly lamented the inconsistency of this approach, but their voices were raised in vain. The Roman church has continued the same approach until this day. It can be seen particularly in Central and South America , where idols have simply been replaced with statues of the saints. Some of their names and traditions have even been combined. Roman Catholic churches in these countries are often opened to the Indians for the worship of their animistic gods. How then did we receive our holidays (holy days) with their customs and traditions? Christmas as well as Easter, Halloween, and Mardi Gras? Each of them has come to us from ancient Babylon , through Rome , through the Roman Catholic church. It was for this very reason that in the city of Geneva in Switzerland in Calvin's day you could have been fined or imprisoned for celebrating Christmas. It was at the request of the Westminster Assembly that the English Parliament in 1644 passed an act forbidding the observance of Christmas, calling it a heathen holiday. In an appendix to their "Directory for the Public Worship of God" the Westminster divines said: "There is no day commanded in scripture to be kept holy under the gospel but the Lord's day, which is the Christian Sabbath. Festival days, vulgarly called 'Holy-days', having no warrant in the word of God, are not to be continued." When the Puritans came to America they passed similar laws. The early New Englanders worked steadily through December 25, 1620, in studied neglect of the day. About 40 years later the General Court of Massachusetts decreed punishment for those who kept the season: "...anyone who is found observing, by abstinence from labor, feasting, or any other way, any such days as Christmas Day, shall pay for every such offence five shillings." It was not until the 19th century that Christmas had any religious significance in Protestant churches. Even as late as 1900, Christmas services were not held in Southern Presbyterian churches. The PCUS General Assembly of 1899 declared: "There is no warrant in Scripture for the observance of Christmas and Easter as holidays, rather the contrary (see Gal. 4:9-11; Col. 2:16-21), and such observance is contrary to the principles of the Reformed Faith, conducive to willworship, and not in harmony with the simplicity of the gospel of Jesus Christ." II. The History of Christmas What then is the history of Christmas? The ignoble nature of the origins and customs of Christmas can be found in many standard reference sources; therefore, we will not dwell on them in great detail. It is appropriate, however, to mention a

few highly significant facts pertaining to the origins behind Christmas. Evidence points to the fourth century as the time when Christmas celebration began. Records covering the first three centuries of New Testament church history mention an increasing significance given to the period from Passover to Pentecost; yet, evidence is lacking to prove any celebration regarding the Saviors birth. In the middle of the third century, Origin gives a list of fasts and festivals which were observed in his time, and no mention is made of Christmas. The lack of such testimony supports the conclusion that no celebration was then observed. Although there was no Christmas observance at this time, there were various pagan celebrations held in conjunction with the winter solstice. In Scandinavia , the great feast of Yule with all its various ceremonies, had celebrated the birth of the winter sun-god. In the Latin countries there reigned Saturnalia, a cult of the god Saturn. The date December 25, coincided also with the birth of Attis, a Phrygian cult of the sun-god, introduced into Rome under the Empire. The popular feasts attached to the births of other sun-gods such as Mithras, were also invariably celebrated at the time of the winter solstice. The transition from festivals commemorating the birth of a sun god to a celebration ostensibly for the Son of God occurred sometime in the fourth century. Unable to eradicate the heathen celebration of Saturnalia, the Church of Rome, sometime before 336 AD, designated a Feast of the Nativity to be observed. Many of the customs associated with Christmas also took their origins from the heathen observances. The exchanging of gifts, extravagant merriment, and lighting of candles all have previous counterparts in the Roman Saturnalia. The use of trees harkens back to the pagan Scandinavian festival of Yule. This process of assimilation is characteristic of Roman Catholicism throughout the centuries. Within Roman Catholicism, there is no policy designed to eradicate such heathen practices; rather, the general practice is to foster assimilation by replacing pagan superstitions with similar ecclesiastical institutions. An example of this policy is illustrated by a letter which Pope Gregory wrote to Abbot Mellitus on how to order things in Britain (AD 606): The temples of the idols among the people should on no account be destroyed. The idols themselves are to be destroyed, but the temples themselves are to be aspersed with holy water, altars set up in them, and relics deposited there. For if these temples are well-built, they must be purified from the worship of demons and dedicated to the service of the true God. In this way, we hope that the people, seeing that their temples are not destroyed, may abandon their error and, flocking more readily to their accustomed resorts, may come to know and adore the true God. And since they have a custom of sacrificing many oxen to demons, let some other solemnity be substituted in its place, such as a day of Dedication or Festivals of the holy martyrs whose relics are enshrined there. On such occasion they might well construct shelters of boughs for themselves around the churches that were once temples, and celebrate the solemnity with devout feasting. This is quite a program! The church is encouraged to give the pagans ecclesiastical relics, rites, ceremonies, and festive celebrations as a substitute for their heathen ones. This policy differs greatly from the conduct of the children of God who cut down sacred groves, destroyed the remnants of idolatry, or burned their heathen books in order to make a clean break with pagan ways (Ex. 34:13; Deut. 12:2-4, 29-32; 2Kings 18:4; Acts 19:19). The theory of conquest through assimilation is only too apparent in an examination of Christmas. A casual glance will show how the holiday incorporates heathen observances on a world-wide scale. Each culture seems to have its own local "contribution" to the celebration of Christmas. The serious question for the Christian is this: Are we not commanded, "Learn not the way of the heathen" (Jer. 10:2)? Along with Rome 's direct infusion of paganism, the papal church has added some novelties of its own. The principal perversion is the celebration of the Mass. Since the middle ages, the concept of transubstantiation has been an integral part of Popish worship. Roman Catholics contend that the communion elements are transformed into the actual body and blood of Christ, in order to offer a re-sacrifice of Christ, a sacrifice which is said to possess propitiatory merits. The Mass is a blasphemous assault upon the finality and perfection of Christ's sacrifice on the cross of Calvary (Cf. Heb. 9:12, 2426; 10:10-14). The Mass is the pre-eminent feature of Christmas celebration. "In the Roman Catholic Church three masses are usually said to symbolize the birth of Christ eternally in the bosom of the Father, from the womb of Mary, and mystically in the soul of the faithful. The concept of the Mass is embedded in the English term Christmas, its etymology being traced to the Old English words

Christes maesse, meaning "the mass or festival of Christ." Because of its pagan and papal associations, Christmas met strong objections during and after the Protestant Reformation. This opposition was especially forceful among Presbyterians. III. Opposition to the Celebration of Christmas The celebration of Christmas seemed to be opposed by many, some of these dated back to the early days of the sixteenth century. This was the case in the city of Geneva . The Register of Ministers in Geneva (1546) records a list of "faults which contravene the Reformation." Among the directives regarding "Superstitions" is the following: "Those who observe Romish festivals or fasts shall only be reprimanded, unless they remain obstinately rebellious." On Sunday, 16 November 1550, an edict was issued concerning holidays; it was a decree "respecting the abrogation of all festivals, with the exception of Sundays, which God had ordained." This ban on festival days (including Christmas) caused an uproar in certain quarters, and Calvin was reproached as the instigator of the action. Calvin's personal writings about holidays, in this instance, are somewhat ambiguous. He says he was not directly involved in the decision. In personal correspondence with John Haller (pastor in Berne ), Calvin writes, "Before I ever entered the city, there were no festivals but the Lord's day." He added, "If I had got my choice, I should not have decided in favor of what has now been agreed upon. It seems that Calvin was initially uneasy about the edict to ban the festivals, because he feared that the "sudden change" might provoke tumult which could impede the course of the Reformation. Nevertheless, in the same letter to Haller, Calvin says, "Although I have neither been the mover nor instigator to it, yet, since it has so happened, I am not sorry for it." King James I Another of those who strongly opposed Christmas was King James I . When King James took the English throne, he disallowed Presbyterianism and became an advocate of the Anglican Church government, because it was more compatible with his notions of monarchy. At the Assembly of Perth, in 1617, the king sought to impose various ceremonies designed to enhance the Episcopal cause. The liturgical impositions included receiving communion in a kneeling position, private administration of the sacraments, Episcopal confirmation, and the observance of Christmas, Easter, Whitsuntide, and the Ascension. Scottish ministers resisted this action, with a supplication against all points of the program. David Calderwood (1575-1651) represents the firm opposition given by faithful Scottish ministers. He issued a pointed critique of the Perth Assembly, published in 1619, in which he attacked these innovations in worship that were imposed upon the Church of Scotland. In a section on festival days, Calderwood asserts that only God has the prerogative "to appoint a day of rest and to sanctify it to his honor." Under the law of God, no one presumed to appoint holy days "but God, and that either by Himself, or by some extraordinary direction." Moreover, the anniversary days prescribed by God "pertained to the ceremonial law; but so it is that the ceremonial law is abolished. The anniversary days were distinguished from the moral Sabbath;" only the ordinary (weekly) Sabbath remains. "The moral use of the ordinary Sabbath was for the service of God in general both private and public. The mystical use [of the anniversary days] was to be a memorial of things bypassed, and a shadow of things to come. The moral use endures, the mystical uses are vanished." "The Judicial days had once that honor, as to be appointed by God himself; but the anniversary days appointed by men have not the like honor." Calderwood continues, "If it had been the will of God that the several acts of Christ should have been celebrated with several solemnities, the Holy Ghost would have made known to us the day of his nativity, circumcision, presentation in the temple, baptism, transfiguration, and the like." "This opinion of Christ's nativity on the 25th day of December was bred at Rome ." He then exposes some of the preposterous Romish claims made for the 25th day of December as the day of Christ's birth; and he notes inconsistent claims, made in previous centuries, for other dates on the calendar, as the day of the Saviors nativity. "The diversity of the ancients observing some the 6th day of January, some the 19th day of April, some the 19th of May, some the 25th day of December, argues that the Apostles never ordained it." "You see then as God hid the body of Moses, so has he hid this day, and other days depending on the calculation of it, wherein he declared his will concerning the other days of his notable acts: to wit, that not Christ's action, but Christ's institution makes a day holy." "Nay, let us

utter the truth, December-Christmas is a just imitation of the December-Saturnal of the ethnic [heathen] Romans, and so used as if Bacchus, and not Christ, were the God of Christians." "It is commonly objected, that we may as well keep a day for the nativity, as for the resurrection of Christ. We have answered already, that Christ's day, or the Lord's Day, is the day appointed for remembrance of his nativity, and all his action and benefits, as well as for the resurrection." Further, says Calderwood, even supposing that the keeping of holy days was initially indifferent, the festival days must now be abolished, because "they are abused and polluted with superstition." Indeed, the brazen serpent was originally constructed by God's express command; yet it was destroyed when it became a snare to the people of God (2 Kings 18:4). How much more, then, should we discard man-made observances which are additionally contaminated with Romish superstition and idolatry. IV. Other Opposed Views We have seen that Presbyterian opposition to Christmas is consistent, historical, and based upon solid scriptural considerations. Yet, Presbyterians were not the only persons who maintained a strong stand against Christmas and kindred corruptions of worship; there were other Christians who held similar convictions. For example, the famous Baptist preacher Charles H. Spurgeon opened a sermon on 24 December 1871 with the following words: We have no superstitious regard for times and seasons. Certainly we do not believe in the present ecclesiastical arrangement called Christmas: first, because we do not believe in the mass at all, but abhor it, whether it be said or sung in Latin or in English; and, secondly, because we find no scriptural warrant whatever for observing any day as the birthday of the Savior; and, consequently, its observance is a superstition, because not of divine authority. V. Concluding Thoughts A few final words remain for those who claim to be Christians. The Protestant Reformers summoned us back to the scriptural law of worship which allows us to admit only those institutions in worship that possess express scriptural warrant. To take a stand in support of Christmas is a repudiation of this legacy of the Reformation. It is a retreat from a hard-won point of orthodoxy. A consistent application of Reformed and Presbyterian principles of worship requires the repudiation of Christmas. Answer 109 of the Westminster Larger Catechism forbids "any wise approving, any religious worship not instituted by God himself. The issue is not a matter of indifference. Since Christmas was not instituted by God, it should not be approved or tolerated in the official practices of the Church. Ministers and church officers are not being true to their ordination vows, if they encourage or tolerate Christmas observance in their congregations. Moreover, the obligation to protect our families from corrupt worship resides with all heads of households. We must strive to follow the example of Abraham, who received a commendation from the Lord: "I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord" (Gen. 18:19). At the outset of the Reformation in Scotland , John Knox issued the following charge to the heads of households: You are ordained of God to rule your own houses in his true fear, and according to his Word. Within your own houses, I say, in some cases, you are bishops and kings; your wife, children, servants, and family are your bishopric and charge; of you it shall be required how carefully and diligently you have always instructed them in God's true knowledge, how that you have studied in them to plant virtue and repress vice. Of course, there are always those who agree "in principle," but offer lame excuses for their reticence to apply their beliefs to their actions. To such men, the words of Gillespie stand as an appropriate exhortation: Do not reckon it enough to bear within the enclosure of your secret thoughts a certain dislike of the ceremonies and other abuses now set afoot, except both by profession and action you evidence the same, and show your faith by your fact. We are constrained to say to some among you, with Elijah, "How long shalt ye between two opinions?" and call unto you with Moses, "Who is on the Lord's side? Who?" "Be not deceived: God is not mocked." And, "No man can serve two masters. To all readers, this study is presented with the hope that it will foster a desire to maintain the purity of scriptural worship, in service to the living God. May the Church be liberated from the corrupting influences which destroy the spiritual vitality of

her worship; and may a zealous concern for our worship flow from a desire to glorify almighty God Jehovah and the only begotten God, his son, Jesus Christ.
