While The Teachings Of Yeshua/Jesus Are The
Truth
The Way Of The Churches Bring Spiritual
Death
Because They Share A Common Doctrinal Flaw
Liberal And Conservative Churches
Are Merely Opposite Polarities Of The Same
Flaw
It is not a sin to have been misled by the
god of this world
Yeshua warned that even the elect would be
seduced
It is only a sin not to seek Truth, when it
has been presented to you
When the leaders of one Church oppose the
leaders of another Church, the equation is
not truth opposing error -- but rather, it
is as one polarity of error opposing it's
opposite polarity of error.
Why? Because it is their flawed
foundation that not only causes all the
opposing opinions that consume and divide
the Christian and ultimately the religious
world, but causes each group to
remain alienated from the Truth.
If, what Paul refers to as the god of this
world, can invoke disputes and factional
polarizations -- to the degree where
fragments of truth are mistaken for the
Whole Truth -- then the Truth has been
overcome by the power of darkness.
Yeshua warned that a House that is divided,
cannot stand -- and Christianity remains a
religion of mass confusion and opposing
opinions, because the god of this world has
prevailed in his endeavor to induce
Christians to ignore the warning of Paul on
the sin of sects (see
No Sects). Yeshua did not
come to promote doctrines of opinion and
belief -- but rather, he came to teach
TheWay that each person must walk, to Know
The Truth and the Kingdom. In
the parable of the good seed and the field,
the enemy sowed tares among the good seed --
and it has been these tares that had divided
believers and alienated them from being
nourished by the Sacred Manna of the Kingdom
that can only be received by those who pick
up their own cross and follow in the
footsteps of Yeshua and TheWay. Fix the flawed foundation, and all the
opposing opinions that divide the Christian
and religious world will very quickly disperse.
And while Christian's claim to rely upon the New
Testament -- it is the very
scriptures they champion that rejects their
doctrines of belief as being turned out of TheWay.
Why do they fail to see this fact?
Because they are blinded by their flawed
foundation which causes them to perceive in
error.
The Flawed
Doctrine Of Perpetual Redemption:
Church doctrine had become strongly
influenced and defined by carnal believers
who were converted in name only from the
paganism of Rome by the Emperor
Constantine. The pagan mindset
appeases a God that it cannot know, because
the thinking of the people are immature and
undeveloped. In the same way that the
Pharisees sacrificed animals for their sin,
the pagan Christians used Jesus as a
sacrifice for their sins. And in the same
way that Jesus condemned all animal
sacrifice -- stating that he was the
one time sacrifice for the sins of the faithful flock
-- the pagans of Rome who called themselves
Christian, turned Jesus into a perpetual
sacrifice for lives lived in continual sin, immorality
and often spiritual depravity.
Contrary to the paganism and idolatry of the
Church, the New Testament openly condemns those who
sin after embracing the teachings of Yeshua
and TheWay -- stating that they crucify the
Messiah/Christ afresh, and they forfeit any
and all hope
of salvation. Thus, in direct
opposition to Church doctrine, Yeshua/Jesus
taught that his followers had to keep the
Commandments and the Law in a spiritual
manner -- rather then the carnal manner of
the Pharisees -- and they had to be more
righteous: "Think
not that I am come to destroy the law, or
the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but
to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till
heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle
shall in no wise pass from the law, till all
be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall
break one of these least commandments, and
shall teach men so, he shall be called the
least in the kingdom of heaven: but
whosoever shall do and teach them, the same
shall be called great in the kingdom of
heaven. For I say unto you, That except
your righteousness shall exceed the
righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees,
ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom
of heaven" (Matt 5:17-20 KJV).
To
the man who was healed by Yeshua he warned:
"Afterward Jesus
findeth him in the temple, and said unto
him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no
more, lest a worse thing come unto thee."
(John 5:14 KJV).
And once again this same reality is
portrayed in the words of Paul:
"But if, while we
seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves
also are found sinners, is therefore Christ
the minister of sin? God forbid. For if I
build again the things which I destroyed, I
make myself a transgressor."
(Gal 2:17-18 KJV).
These words mean absolutely nothing to
the leaders of the Churches, because to them
religion is a commercial business which they
peddle -- and for them to remain in
business, the prevailing spiritual sickness
must remain fully in effect.
While ignorance and spiritual
disenfranchisement is the cause of the
disease, sin is the outward effect of the
spiritual sickness that Jesus came to
cure. The disciple who was healed of this
congenital sickness, by virtue of the blood
of the Lamb, was granted the Power to be
healed from this sickness. Once
cured he did not remain sick -- but was
healed from the malady that was the cause of
his ignorance, suffering and spiritual
disenfranchisement. The Church,
on the other hand, thrives by promoting the
disease that afflicts mankind -- and it is
necessary to keep the people ignorant for
the prodigal sons and daughters to remain
shackled to lives of suffering in this, the
"far country"
where they are bound to the
"outer darkness"
of consciousness, mind and being.
As the Gospel
became corrupted by the pagans who called
themselves Christian, the degeneracy of the
Church was opposed by men such as
Pelagius who wrote that:
“Man is able, if he
likes, to live without sin and keep the
commandments of God, in as much as God gives
him this ability”. It is
important to recognize that Pelagius did not
say that man has this inherent ability --
but rather, God grants him this ability --
but this ability can only be bestowed upon
those disciples who are truly faithful to
the very spiritual essence of the teachings
of Jesus and TheWay. Pelagius vehemently
opposed the corruption of the clergy and
priests of the Roman Church -- the idolatry
of the Pagan Christians -- and this
statement was written against the dreadful
moral standards of the church which had
thoroughly embraced the doctrine of St.
Augustine that all events of life was
totally controlled by Divine Providence.
To the reasoning of Augustine, it made no difference if man committed
sin, because he did not possess freewill.
Under the doctrine of predestination
promoted by Augustine, man could do nothing
on his own -- and whether he was saved or
not, was predestined from before the world
was created. This doctrine was of course
used by the Roman Church because it
conveniently established the Church in the
role of the singular determining factor in
man’s search for salvation. Being a member
of the church was the only qualifier that
saved mankind -- and since man was morally
challenged because of the Original Sin of
Adam and Eve, it did not matter how defiled
or sinful a life he lived. From a
doctrinal perspective, all of mankind was
morally challenged -- man was a congenital
sinner, and could do nothing
on his own -- and since no deeds either good
or bad could save him -- it was doctrinally
reasoned that mankind could therefore live
in accordance with any moral standard he
desired, so long as he lived under the
protective umbrella of the Roman Church.
That Christians are in fact required to test
what they believe is seen in the commandment
of the Apostle to
“prove and test all things” --
and it is the claim of the original
teachings of Jesus that we have this ability
-- not by virtue of our own powers of carnal
reasoning, but because God has given us the
ability to carry out the commandment of the
Apostle. But Christians remain
shackled to ignorance, because they choose
to blindly believe in the carnal doctrines
of men. The very name Christian conveys a
person who is of an Anointed and Illumined
mind and understanding -- a state of mind
that our modern-day faith-based doctrines
represent only a very incomplete
understanding of the true depth of the
original Gospel message.
In the process of what is known as reverse
osmosis, man has the power to purify
contaminated water -- and he does so through
the process of removing the impurities that
became infused into the water as it flowed
from its source to the point where he is
able to receive it. In the case of what we
believe today, the filter that we use to
purify what we have received is knowledge --
and that knowledge can only be realized when
it is built upon the same foundation as that
which was found at the waters source.
History easily demonstrates that under the
rule of Roman Authority, the church fell
into such carnal degeneracy that it embraced
every sort of political and materialistic
corruption -- a corruption that brought the
level of the church so low, that it even
ordained sexual orgies for the priests.
To further
“illustrate the condition and character of
the times”, Gibbon writes in the
Decline And Fall of the Roman Empire, that
“Simony”,
or the buying and selling of ecclesiastic
positions within the church,
“was not unknown in
those times; and the clergy sometimes bought
what they intended to sell. It appears that
the bishopric of Carthage was purchased by a
wealthy matron, named Lucilla, for her
servant Majorinus”. Regarding
the wholesale immorality and depravity of
the churches, Gibbon writes that:
“Fraud, envy, and
malice prevailed in every congregation. The
presbyters aspired to the episcopal office,
which every day became an object more worthy
of their ambitions”.
This morally bankrupt lifestyle was
justified under the Augustinian doctrine
that, by nature, man is incapable of doing
good, and he is saved by virtue of his
membership in the church. Those
who opposed the Pagan Church of Rome, were
condemned as heretics -- hunted down and
murdered (see
The Death Of The Teachings Of Jesus).
Because Constantine was not only carnal, but
in every way a ruthless conscienceless
despot who embraced evil in everything he
did, the Church that he formed was born in
the image of its creator. The question
that every believer must ask today is how
corrupted and contaminated has the message
of Christ become after it had been placed in
the hands of mankind? In a letter to Pope
Leo X on September 6th, 1520, Martin Luther
wrote of the Christianity of his day, that
the church, “…once
the holiest of all, has become the most
licentious den of thieves, the most
shameless of all brothels, the kingdom of
sin, death, and hell. It is so bad that even
Antichrist himself, if he should come, could
think of nothing to add to its wickedness”
(Quoted in: The Great Thoughts; compiled by
George Seldes).
That many Christians who remained carnal in
their understanding twisted the doctrine of
faith over the rituals of the Law which Paul
promoted among the Gentiles, is readily seen
in the statement of Peter where it is
written:
"Nevertheless we, according to His promise,
look for new heavens and a new earth in
which righteousness dwells. Therefore,
beloved, looking forward to these things, be
diligent to be found by Him in peace,
without spot and blameless; and account
that the longsuffering of our Lord is
salvation -- as also our beloved brother
Paul, according to the wisdom given to him,
has written to you, as also in all his
epistles, speaking in them of these things,
in which are some things hard to understand,
which untaught and unstable people twist to
their own destruction, as they do also the
rest of the Scriptures. You therefore,
beloved, since you know this beforehand,
beware lest you also fall from your own
steadfastness, being led away with the error
of the wicked; but grow in the grace and
knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ. To Him be the glory both now and
forever. Amen" (2 Pet 3:13-18
NKJ).
If all that was necessary was to call upon
the name of Jesus and be saved, then Peter
never would have made notice that
"...as also in all
his epistles, speaking in them of these
things, in which are some things hard to
understand, which untaught and unstable
people twist to their own destruction, as
they do also the rest of the Scriptures."
If all that was necessary was to
have faith and call upon the name of the
Lord -- saying a prayer accepting Jesus as
the believers personal Lord and Savior --
then Peter never would have stated that many
of the believers who were reading Paul's
Epistles were ignorant of the essence of the
teachings of Yeshua who were
"...untaught and
unstable people twist to their own
destruction, as they do also the rest of the
Scriptures."
It is their flawed foundational doctrines of
belief that not only cause all the opposing
opinions that consume and divide the
Christian and ultimately the religious
world, but causes each group to remain
alienated from the Truth. Fix the
foundation and restore Wholeness, and the
Living Vine which the Church once was, will
again be able to supply the spiritual manna
that will heal the Nations. Yet, if that
power that Paul refers to as the god of this
world, can continue to invoke disputes and
factional polarizations -- seducing people
into lives of blind belief in the carnal
doctrines or men -- to the degree
where fragments of truth are mistaken for
the Whole Truth -- then the Truth as it is
manifest in this world will continue to be
overcome by the power of darkness. Yeshua
warned that a House that is divided, cannot
stand -- and Christianity remains a religion
of mass confusion and opposing opinions,
because the god of this world has prevailed
in his endeavor to induce Christians to
ignore the warning of Paul on the sin of
sects (see
No Sects). Yeshua did not come to
promote doctrines of opinion and belief --
but rather, he came to teach TheWay that
each person must live, think and walk in
this life, to Know The Truth and manifest
the Kingdom within them. In the parable of
the good seed and the field, the enemy sowed
tares among the good seed -- and it has been
these tares that has divided believers and
alienated them from being nourished by the
Sacred Manna of the Kingdom that can only be
received by those who pick up their own
cross and follow in the footsteps of Yeshua
and TheWay. Fix the flawed foundation --
restore Wholeness -- and all the opposing
opinions will disperse. And while
Christian's claim to rely upon the New
Testament -- it is the very scriptures they
champion that rejects their doctrines of
belief as being turned out of TheWay. Why
do they fail to see this fact? Because
they are blinded by their flawed foundation
which causes them to perceive in error.
Truth can only be revealed and received in
accord with the disciples sincere
willingness to live the Truth that has been
imparted to them from the Holy Spirit in
word, thought, desire and deed.
In refusing to live in the Life and Light of
TheWay, the Christian world has been
conquered, and they dwell in the abyss of
darkness and confusion. But what
is truly pitiful and sad, is the fact that
the people choose lives of suffering and
ignorance, when it is within their power to
Know the Truth that breaks the shackles of
the god of this world.
The twisting of the scriptures by a vast
multitude in the modern Church is
demonstrated in a recent Christian's
condemnation of someone in a forum who used
the name Eternal Seeker -- and the Christian
bases his allegations of heresy, on the
belief that Eternal Seeker is in error.
Why? Why was the person using the name
Eternal Seeker condemned by the Christian?
Because from his doctrinal Church
perspective, Christians dwell under the
deceptive belief that they have found Jesus --
and their belief is all that is required. So from
his very limited reasoning, the Christian
proclaims: What is there to seek? You
simply believe, and that is the end of it.
The fact that a man would call himself the
Eternal Seeker, in the limited understanding
of the Christian, proves to him that such a
man is lost and of Satan. Yet, the Bible
states that just the opposite is true -- and
it is in fact this very mindset that keeps
Christians spiritually ignorant, and
destroys even their opportunity to become a
Disciple of Yeshua and TheWay. Speaking of
the false shepherds who had been twisting
both the Epistles of Paul and the scriptures
to their own destruction, Peter writes:
"These men are springs without water and
mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness
is reserved for them. For they mouth empty,
boastful words and, by appealing to the
lustful desires of sinful human nature, they
entice people who are just escaping from
those who live in error. They promise them
freedom, while they themselves are slaves of
depravity -- for a man is a slave to
whatever has mastered him"
(2 Pet 2:17-19 NIV).
When Peter makes reference to the
"...people who are just escaping from
those who live in error",
he is speaking of those who are trying to escape the
clutches of the culture of this world,
by becoming what Paul called
"babes in Christ". And yet, what Peter is stating is the
fact that the very doctrines of the false
shepherds who they are following, are conveying to these
entry-level believers that they have
found freedom in the Gospel, when in fact they have
only just begun their walk in TheWay. The depravity that Peter speaks of is in
fact parallel to the warning in the
Epistle of James that
"faith
without works is dead"
-- i.e., without the works of the
spirit,
"...they themselves are
slaves of depravity -- for a man is a
slave to whatever has mastered him".
We must ask: Why would the
counterfeit clergy-shepherds promise the
people
"freedom"
in the Gospel and the Good News -- and
yet, Peter warns that they
"...themselves are slaves of
depravity"???
Because these shepherds of the simple
faith do not understand the words that
Yeshua said to the man who he had
healed:
"Behold, thou art made whole:
sin no more, lest a worse thing come
unto thee" (John
5:14 KJV). Having themselves never been
"WHOLE" -- or even remotely understand
the reality of Wholeness -- the
shepherds of the simple faith attempt to
use Jesus as a sacrifice to live in a
state of perpetual sin. And thus, these
blind guides are not only
disenfranchised from the very spiritual
essence of the teachings of Yeshua and TheWay, but they have themselves never
experienced Wholeness -- or even
understand the reality that is conveyed
in these words.
Perhaps the key to understanding the
false shepherds of the Church is found
in the words:
"Do not think that I came to
destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did
not come to destroy but to fulfill. For
assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and
earth pass away, one jot or one tittle
will by no means pass from the law till
all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore
breaks one of the least of these
commandments, and teaches men so, shall
be called least in the kingdom of
heaven; but whoever does and teaches
them, he shall be called great in the
kingdom of heaven. For I say to you,
that unless your righteousness exceeds
the righteousness of the scribes and
Pharisees, you will by no means enter
the kingdom of heaven"
(Matt 5:17-20 NKJ). Thus, while Yeshua
and his Ebionite (
http://Ebionite.com ) disciples
condemned the rituals and traditions of
the Pharisees, they openly acknowledged
the Royal Law that remains completely in
effect and binding upon all people's of
the earth.
Peter's next statement is not
only in direct opposition -- and
runs contrary to what is preached in
the Churches today -- but should
literally haunt every person who
calls themselves a Christian
believer:
"If they have escaped
the corruption of the world by
knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ and are again entangled in it
and overcome, they are worse off at
the end than they were at the
beginning. It would have been better
for them not to have known the way
of righteousness, than to have known
it and then to turn their backs on
the sacred command that was passed
on to them. Of them the proverbs are
true: A dog returns to its vomit,
and, A sow that is washed goes back
to her wallowing in the mud"
(2 Pet 2:20-22 NIV)
Where the modern Church promotes
the doctrine that they are saved by
Grace regardless of the manner they
live their lives -- and they have
made Jesus into a Pagan idolatrous
sacrifice as a cloak for immorality
and spiritual depravity -- Peter not only
states that this doctrine is in
grave error, but correctly states
that:
"It would have been better
for them not to have known the way
of righteousness, than to have known
it and then to turn their backs on
the sacred command that was passed
on to them."
Every Christian should ask
themselves:
How Can This Be???
Christians promote the doctrine that
only those who believe can be saved
-- and here Peter is stating the
opposite is true, and that those
people who claim to believe, may be
worse off after they have
come to believe, than before they
began to believe. The shepherds and
blind guides that Peter is making
reference to, are those who preach
the modern doctrine of perpetual sin
that is promoted in churches today
-- i.e.,
"This is especially true
of those who follow the corrupt
desire of the sinful nature..."
(2 Peter 2:10 NIV). Because these
false shepherds fail to understand
the reality of what Yeshua meant
when he used the terms Whole, and
Complete, they preach the
"...promise [of] freedom [in
their doctrine of salvation by faith
and grace alone], while they
themselves are slaves of depravity."
In what can only be in total
opposition to what Christians today
believe, Peter states that it would
have been better for the entry-level
believers to have never heard of the
Good News of the Gospel message, than to have heard, and then
fall prey to the false shepherds who
promise freedom but blindly lead the
believers into the proverbial ditch. And there is simply no means for the
modern Christian who believes the
doctrines of the Church, to even
begin to understand what Peter is
making reference to. Why? Because
what is preached in the Churches
today, has relatively little in
common with what Yeshua actually
taught. And in truth, modern
Christian doctrine is founded upon
the religious principles of Pagan
Rome (see
The Christian Judas),
than what Yeshua actually taught. How can this be? A person will ask?
Quite contrary to modern Christian
doctrine where all believers are
saved, it is very clearly
demonstrated in the scriptures that
believers who do not live in
accordance with the Commandments of
the Lord will be punished even more
severely than the non-believer. This
truth is demonstrated in the words:
“That servant who knows his master's
will and does not get ready or does
not do what his master wants will be
beaten with many blows. But the one
who does not know and does things
deserving punishment will be beaten
with few blows. From everyone who
has been given much, much will be
demanded; and from the one who has
been entrusted with much, much more
will be asked” (Luke 12:47-48 NIV). What
Yeshua is
stating to us is that believer’s who
do not fulfill the Commandments,
will be punished more severely, than those who
do not know the will of God.
That many Christians who remained
carnal in their understanding
twisted the doctrine of faith over
the rituals of the Law which Paul
promoted among the Gentiles -- as
they continue to do today -- is
readily seen in the statement of
Peter where it is written:
"Nevertheless we, according to His
promise, look for new heavens and a
new earth in which righteousness
dwells. Therefore, beloved,
looking forward to these things, be
diligent to be found by Him in
peace, without spot and blameless;
and account that the longsuffering
of our Lord is salvation-- as also
our beloved brother Paul, according
to the wisdom given to him, has
written to you, as also in all
his epistles, speaking in them of
these things, in which are some
things hard to understand, which
untaught and unstable people twist
to their own destruction, as they do
also the rest of the Scriptures.
You therefore, beloved, since you
know this beforehand, beware lest
you also fall from your own
steadfastness, being led away with
the error of the wicked; but
grow in the grace and knowledge of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To
Him be the glory both now and
forever. Amen" (2 Pet
3:13-18 NKJ).
If all that was necessary was to
call upon the name of Jesus and be
saved, then Peter never would have
made notice that
"...as also
in all his epistles, speaking in
them of these things, in which are
some things hard to understand,
which untaught and unstable people
twist to their own destruction, as
they do also the rest of the
Scriptures."
If all that was necessary was to
have faith and call upon the name of
the Lord -- saying a prayer
accepting Jesus as the believer's
personal Lord and Savior -- then
Peter never would have stated that
many of the believers who were
reading Paul's Epistles were
ignorant of the essence of the
teachings of Yeshua who were
"...untaught and unstable people
twist to their own destruction, as
they do also the rest of the
Scriptures."
Proof of the above -- and proof
that when Paul was speaking of
faith, he was not speaking of a
faith that permits the believer to
continue to sin after embracing the
Gospel -- is confirmed in the words
in the Epistle to the Hebrews where
it is warned that if a believer sins
willfully after becoming a believer,
that they have crucified the Christ
afresh, and no sacrifice
(Jesus/Grace) can have any effect on
their destiny of judgment as an
apostate to the teachings of Yeshua
and TheWay:
"For it is impossible to
restore again to repentance those
who have once been enlightened, who
have tasted the heavenly gift, and
have become partakers of the Holy
Spirit, and have tasted the goodness
of the word of God and the powers of
the age to come, if they then commit
apostasy, since they crucify the Son
of God on their own account and hold
him up to contempt.. For if we sin
deliberately after receiving the
knowledge of the truth, there no
longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
but a fearful prospect of judgment,
and a fury of fire which will
consume the adversaries."
(Heb 6:4-6;10:26-27
RSV).
Christian Apostasy
The Legacy of Martin Luther
Christians Hold Yeshua In Contempt:
What is Paul, the alleged author of
the Epistle to the Hebrews, saying
in these important words?
Very clearly, he warns that
repentance from a life of sin is a
one time thing -- reserved for those
who are entry-level Christians --
because if after repenting the
believer
"...sins
deliberately after receiving the
knowledge of the truth, there no
longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
but a fearful prospect of judgment,
and a fury of fire which will
consume the adversaries."
Why? Because a believer
who willfully sins after repentance
and coming to the knowledge of
TheWay, is a counterfeit believer
who is an
"apostate... who crucifies the Son
of God afresh -- holding him up to
contempt."
Martin Luther who is the
father of the modern Church
doctrine that believers are
saved solely by faith
irrespective of their actions
and the way they live their
lives,
recognized that he couldn't
explain the above words of Paul
that very clearly opposed
everything that Luther believed
to be true, and he therefore
rejected the Epistle of the
Hebrews -- as he did also with
over half of the New Testament.
But did Luther understand the
spiritual essence of the
teachings of Yeshua and TheWay
in their original form?
In view of the fact that Luther
could not come to terms with
this and many other scriptural
statements that he rejected, it
is easy to recognize that
because Luther was himself a
priest in the spiritually
disenfranchised Church of Rome,
that Luther did not at all
understand the very First
Principles of the Spiritual
Gospel that was taught by Yeshua
and his Ebionite Disciples of
TheWay. While the
above words of Paul are
impossible to understand from a
modern Christian perspective,
they remain totally faithful to
the foundational teachings that
the modern Christian has been
alienated from due to the
limitations of manmade Church
doctrine.
Can Christians even hear and
acknowledge the Truth? How
can I even begin to portray reality
to those whom Paul states are
apostates to the teachings of
Yeshua and TheWay? Holding
him in absolute contempt?
Paul states that those who
willfully sin after repentance
are in fact crucifying the Son
of God afresh -- which means
that their leaders in the faith
are Judas' who betray
Messiah/Christ.
And in teaching believers that
they are saved by their faith
regardless of the mindset or the
lifestyle they embrace --
regardless of their actions and
deeds -- the reality is that the
believers of the simple faith
are following the least, from
the perspective of the Kingdom
-- i.e.,
"...Whoever therefore
breaks one of the least of these
commandments, and teaches men
so, shall be called least in the
kingdom of heaven; but whoever
does and teaches them, he shall
be called great in the kingdom
of heaven. For I say to you,
that unless your righteousness
exceeds the righteousness of the
scribes and Pharisees, you will
by no means enter the kingdom of
heaven"
(Matt 5:17-20 NKJ).
Thus, Paul writes of these
counterfeit clergy
who
"...promise them
freedom"
in their idolatry of
using Yeshua/Jesus as a license
to continue to sin, that they
are Apostates to the Kingdom.
The faith of Paul in no manner
promoted a coverture of sin in
the manner that Christians
preach today -- and this is
especially seen in Paul's
proclamation:
"What
shall we say then? Shall we
continue in sin that grace may
abound? Certainly not! How shall
we who died to sin live any
longer in it? …knowing this,
that our old man was crucified
with Him, that the body of sin
might be done away with, that we
should no longer be slaves of
sin… Therefore do not let sin
reign in your mortal body, that
you should obey it in its lusts.
And do not present your members
as instruments of
unrighteousness to sin, but
present yourselves to God as
being alive from the dead, and
your members as instruments of
righteousness to God. For sin
shall not have dominion over
you, for you are not under law
but under grace. What then?
Shall we sin because we are not
under law but under grace?
Certainly not! Do you not know
that to whom you present
yourselves slaves to obey, you
are that one's slaves whom you
obey, whether of sin leading to
death, or of obedience leading
to righteousness?”
(Rom 6:1-16 NKJ).
Thus, it is important to see
that Paul portrayed those who
lived in sin as being dead --
i.e., as when Yeshua said:
"Follow
me; and let the dead bury their
dead" (Matt
8:22 KJV). And this is
why the prodigal son who was
lost in the
"far
country", was
portrayed as being dead.
From a biblical perspective,
once a disciple of the Lord has
been cleansed and made whole,
they are to
“sin no
more” (John 5:14;
8:11) -- and,
“Whoever abides in Him does not
sin. Whoever sins has neither
seen Him nor known Him”
(1 Jn 3:6 NKJ).
In surviving excerpts of what
has been historically known as
the Gospel According to the
Hebrews, which was reported to
be the
"original
version of Matthew"
that was composed in the Hebrew
language, of which our present
day gospel is a Greek
translation of, it was written:
"If ye be
in my bosom and do not the will
of my Father which is in heaven,
out of my bosom will I cast you
away". In the late nineteenth century a
library of scriptures was
uncovered which is today known
as the Oxyrhynchus Papyri
-- wherein this verse is found
reading:
"Though ye
be gathered together with me in
my bosom, if ye do not my
commandants, I will cast you
forth".
And to the horror of modern
Christians who reject the Gospel
of the Nazirenes (see http://GospelOfTheNazirenes.org
) and all its strange readings,
we once again find this same
verse: And I say to you,
"Though you be gathered
together in my bosom, if you
keep not my commandments I will
cast you forth. For if you keep
not the lesser mysteries, who
shall give you the greater."
This same
verse of scripture is quoted in
what is historically known as
the 2nd Epistle of Clement,
where it is written:
"Let
us, then, not only call Him
Lord, for that will not save us.
For He saith, 'Not every one
that saith to me, Lord, Lord,
shall be saved, but he that
worketh righteousness' …For this
reason… the Lord hath said,
'Even though ye were gathered
together to me in my very bosom,
yet if ye were not to keep my
commandments, I would cast you
off, and say unto you, Depart
from me; I know you not whence
ye are, ye workers of iniquity’"
(see
http://BibleCorruption.com
). And this same teaching is
also confirmed in an alternate
ending of the Gospel of Mark
which is quoted on the Ebionite
web site (
http://Ebionite.com ):
"This Age of lawlessness and
unbelieving lies under the sway
of Satan,
who
will not allow what lies under
the unclean spirits to
understand the truth and power
of God;
therefore, they said to Christ,
reveal your righteousness now.
Christ answered them, The term
of years for Satan's power has
now expired, but other terrors
are at hand. I was delivered to
death on behalf of sinners,
that they might return to the
truth and sin no more,
that they might inherit that
glory of righteousness which is
spiritual and imperishable in
heaven" (Moffatt,
quoting Gospel Of Mark in Codex
W - Also quoted by St. Jerome as
being the authentic ending of
the Gospel of Mark).
And in perfect agreement with
this alternate ending to the
Gospel of Mark, John writes:
"Whoever abides in Him does not
sin. Whoever sins has neither
seen Him nor known Him. Little
children, let no one deceive
you. He who practices
righteousness is righteous, just
as He is righteous. He who sins
is of the devil, for the devil
has sinned from the beginning.
For this purpose the Son of God
was manifested, that He might
destroy the works of the devil.
Whoever has been born of God
does not sin, for His seed
remains in him; and he cannot
sin, because he has been born of
God. In this the children of
God and the children of the
devil are manifest: Whoever does
not practice righteousness is
not of God, nor is he who does
not love his brother."
(I Jn
3:6-10 NKJ)
To the man who was healed by
Yeshua he warned:
"Afterward Jesus findeth him in
the temple, and said unto him,
Behold, thou art made whole: sin
no more, lest a worse thing come
unto thee."
(John 5:14 KJV).
And once again this same reality
is portrayed in the words of
Paul:
"But
if, while we seek to be
justified by Christ, we
ourselves also are found
sinners, is therefore Christ the
minister of sin? God forbid. For
if I build again the things
which I destroyed, I make myself
a transgressor."
(Gal 2:17-18 KJV).
And in total
agreement with Paul, Peter warns
that the the believers who
continue to sin
"...are worse off at
the end than they were at the
beginning. It would have been
better for them not to have
known the way of righteousness,
than to have known it and then
to turn their backs on the
sacred command that was passed
on to them. Of them the proverbs
are true: A dog returns to its
vomit, and, A sow that is washed
goes back to her wallowing in
the mud"
-- which is also expressed in
the words:
"...For if we sin
deliberately after receiving the
knowledge of the truth, there no
longer remains a sacrifice for
sins, but a fearful prospect of
judgment, and a fury of fire
which will consume the
adversaries."
And this reality that the people
of the Churches fail to
comprehend, is further confirmed
in Paul's letter to the
Corinthians:
"Therefore whoever eats
this bread or drinks this cup of
the Lord in an unworthy manner
will be guilty of the body and
blood of the Lord. But let a man
examine himself, and so let him
eat of the bread and drink of
the cup. For he who eats and
drinks in an unworthy manner
eats and drinks judgment to
himself, not discerning the
Lord's body. For this reason
many are weak and sick among
you, and many sleep"
(1 Cor
11:27-30 NKJ).
What is the source of the modern
day Christian Apostasy? While it was
initiated by a misunderstanding of
Paul's faith over the rituals of the
Law as practiced by the Pharisees, in many
respects the doctrines which were
born under the umbrella of
Protestantism took the doctrine of
faith irrespective of one's actions
to a new level of ungodliness --
which were in fact reactionary
doctrines to the corruption of the
Church of Rome. But that
the Church would be ruled over by
the AntiChrist was predicted in the
Bible (see
The Church Of The AntiChrist). By embracing the
doctrine of faith regardless of
actions which was instituted by
Martin Luther, the Christians have
totally failed to maintain the
necessary biblical standards which
are required. And while Christians
are critical of the thinking and
lifestyle of others, Christians
continue to promote the doctrines of
Martin Luther -- a Roman priest who
embraced the Augustinian doctrine of
Original Sin who failed to understand the doctrine of
Divine Providence, and Luther went
as far as to actually promote a
life of sin as evidence of faith. Luther rejected over half of the New
Testament -- and in total opposition
to the teachings of Yeshua, Martin
Luther actually promoted sin as
proof of salvation. In Luther's own
words:
"Be a sinner, and let
your sins be strong, but let your
trust in Christ be stronger, and
rejoice in Christ who is the victor
over sin, death, and the world. We
will commit sins while we are here,
for this life is not a place where
justice resides... No sin can
separate us from Him, even if we
were to kill or commit adultery
thousands of times each day."
('Let Your Sins Be Strong, from 'The
Wittenberg Project;' 'The Wartburg
Segment', translated by Erika
Flores, from Dr. Martin Luther's
Saemmtliche Schriften, Letter No.
99, 1 Aug. 1521.) Luther believed
that man is a congenital sinner
because of the Original Sin of Adam
and Eve, and that only those who God
saves, will receive salvation. This
void in Christian thinking which
seduced both Luther and Calvin to
embrace the doctrine of Original Sin
and Divine Providence, was the
result of the corruption of the
scriptures (see
http://BibleCorruption.com ) --
and was directly caused by the
removal of the doctrine of the
Journey of the soul over the course
of many lifetimes (
http://Ebionite.com/reincarnation.htm
). And only when this fact is
understood, can the above words be
understood that a complacent
believer is worse off, than someone
who has never at all believed the
Gospel message. And thus, Christians
today remain ignorant of this fact,
because the teachings on the journey
of the soul was condemned by a
circus prostitute who gained
political power (
http://ChristianReincarnation.org
), and the Church no longer has the
doctrinal means to understand why
some people are created vessels of
honor, while others are created
vessels of dishonor (Rom 9:21-22).
Thus, because of the corruption of
the scriptures, modern Christians
totally lack an understanding of the
words of the Church Father Origen:
“For God the Creator makes a certain
vessel unto honor, and other vessels
to dishonor; but that vessel which
has cleansed itself from all
impurity He makes a vessel unto
honor, while that which has stained
itself with the filth of vice He
makes a vessel unto dishonor. The
conclusion from which, accordingly,
is this, that the cause of each
one's actions is a pre-existing one;
and then every one, according to his
deserts, is made by God either a
vessel unto honor or dishonor.
Therefore every individual vessel
has furnished to its Creator out of
itself the causes and occasions of
its being formed by Him to be either
a vessel unto honor or one unto
dishonor. And if the assertion
appear correct, as it certainly is,
and in harmony with all piety, that
it is due to previous causes that
every vessel be prepared by God
either to honor or to dishonor, it
does not appear absurd that, in
discussing remoter causes in the
same order, and in the same method,
we should come to the same
conclusion respecting the nature of
souls, and (believe) that this was
the reason why Jacob was beloved
before he was born into this world,
and Esau hated, while he still was
contained in the womb of his mother”.
The only means for a person to have
"...cleansed [themselves] from all
impurity"
is to seek to live a pious and
Consecrated Life in TheWay that
Yeshua/Jesus taught and ordained. Yet, Luther went as far as to state
that those who attempt to live a
pious life, have themselves rejected
Christ:
"Those pious souls who do
good to gain the Kingdom of Heaven
not only will never succeed, but
they must even be reckoned among the
impious; and it is more important to
guard them against good works than
against sin."
(Wittenberg, VI, 160, quoted by
O'Hare, in 'The Facts About Luther,
TAN Books, 1987, p. 122.). Like
Calvin, Luther did not understand
the doctrine of Divine Providence
because key teachings had been
removed from the scriptures by the
Church (see
Bible Corruption), and in their
reactionary doctrine to the
corruption of the Roman Church, the
fathers of the Reformation plunged
Christianity into an even greater
apostasy to the true teachings of
Yeshua and TheWay. Thus, Christians
condemn the Knowledge of TheWay, in
order to remain apostates to the
Kingdom by holding fast to the
doctrines of Martin Luther. In the
same way that Luther condemned those
who attempted to live a pious life
to be sinners, someone who is an
Eternal Seeker from their
perspective, rejects the free gift
of salvation in the Jesus-god of
Constantine.
Christians claim that Jesus was
God, because the claim was made that
he was One with God. Yet, they fail
to even consider the fact that
"being One with God",
is not the same as being God. This
reality is parallel to that of a
Divine Marriage (
http://DivineMarriage.org )
where the husband and wife are
"one flesh"--
yet, that does not mean that the
wife is the husband, and the husband
is the wife. It means that they
dwell in oneness and perfect harmony
in the Higher Third-Force Soul
reality that causes the vital
life-force of each to flow freely
through both bodies -- and it is the
manifestation of this is spiritual Etheric reality that makes the
"two one
flesh". Further, the
Gospel of John also states that the
Disciples were One with both Yeshua,
and the Father -- so does that make
them God also? Thus, what we have is
the prevailing Christian ignorance
preached by a clergy who
"...promise [of] freedom
[in their doctrine of salvation by
faith and grace alone], while they
themselves are slaves of depravity"
In order to be a believer and
follower of Yeshua/Jesus and TheWay,
the person must make themselves the
"good
ground" in which the
Living Word has been implanted (see
http://SowerAndSeed.com ) --
Christians promote the
doctrine that they attribute to Paul
with respect to being saved by faith
apart from one's actions. And if
Paul had meant this in the manner
that they imagine, he never would
have told them to
"be afraid"
that if they are unfaithful to their
Covenant, that they will be cast
away (see
http://ebionite.com/#purescriptures
). Thus, Paul warns the
Christians:
“Do not be
arrogant, but be afraid”
(Rom 11:20 NIV). Why? Why would
the Apostle warn the Christian they
should be afraid? Evidently he
didn't know anything about the
modern Christian doctrine attributed
to him that once you say your prayer
accepting Jesus as your personal
Lord and Savior, you are saved
regardless of the manner in which
you live your life. And this
warning is an important question for
the modern believer to understand.
They should be afraid because of the
violation of the covenant with God
when the Gentile converts ignored
the warning of the Apostle:
“For if God
did not spare the natural Jewish
branches, he will not spare you
either… Otherwise, you also will be
cut off” (Rom 11:21-22
NIV). And cut off they were -- and
cut off and in bondage they have
remained to this very day! And
when they open their Bibles, their
hearts and minds are hardened, and
they remain spiritually blind to the
true meaning of the scriptures.
Moreover, because they have never
repented from teaching others the
doctrines of men in place of the
Truths of the Gospel, they remain
forever apostates to the Inner
Kingdom.
In the same way that Yeshua
taught that with respect to the
teachings on the sin of adultery
that his followers would be held to
a higher standard than the Jews,
this is confirmed in Paul's warning
to
"Flee sexual immorality.
Every sin that a man does is outside
the body, but he who commits sexual
immorality sins against his own
body" (1 Cor
6:18 NKJ). If the author of these
words agreed with the doctrine that
man is saved by faith apart from his
actions, then he would have said
that once you accept Jesus Christ as
your personal Lord and Savoir,
sexual immorality no longer matters.
Yet, it is clear that Paul did not
promote the doctrine of faith which
was championed by Martin Luther and
the modern Church. Paul
never once espoused the doctrine of
Luther to
"Be a sinner, and let your sins be
strong..."
-- because a life of sin is a total
rejection of Messiah/Christ.
When Paul wrote that man cannot be
saved by the works of the Law, he
was making reference to the outward
rituals of the Jews -- something
which even modern Judaism has
rejected (see
http://TheThreeLies.com ). Christians are blind to the true
meaning of their own scriptures,
because to even begin to walk in TheWay, one must Repent. Yet,
as Paul himself warned, there
can be no repentance, so long as
Christians continue to embrace the
culture and mindset of this world. Moreover, without true repentance,
there can be no Law of Grace -- only
the disillusion of being possessed
by the Powers of the Left Hand (see
http://DivineManna.org ) --
which possession by the god of this
world was confirmed in the
alternative ending of Mark where it
wars that those who continue to sin
lie
"...under the sway of Satan,
who
will not allow what lies under the
unclean spirits to understand the
truth and power of God".
Thus, it is impossible for
Christians who promote the doctrine
of perpetual sin and redemption to
understand the true meaning of the
Gospel, because they are ruled over
by satanic forces which Yeshua
portrayed as the
"citizen of
the far country".
If the
beginning of one's walk in TheWay is
initiated with repentance, then
there must be a total severing with
the sins of one's past in order to
be faithful to the teachings of
Yeshua and TheWay. To have
compassion and make excuses for the
ways of this world -- attempting to
portray the path of ignorance as
being OK from the perspective of the
teachings of Yeshua and TheWay -- is
merely the product of a defiled mind
that Satan whispers to -- often
telling you his name is Jesus
Christ. So long as you keep
following counterfeit shepherds who
promote the doctrine that you are
saved by Grace regardless of your
actions, mindset and lifestyle, then
you will continue to be apostates to
the Kingdom and the Living Word of
God.

God Ordains Error For The Good Of
The Prodigal Sons
In the writings of Clement, the 2nd
century Bishop of Alexandria, it is
explained that:
“But among the lies, the false
prophets also told some true things.
And in reality they prophesied ‘in
an ecstasy,’ as the servants of the
apostate”.
Using the early Christian writing
known as the Shepherd of Hermas
(see http://nazirene.org/shepherd_of_hermas.htm
), Clement then explains:
“And the Shepherd, the angel of
repentance, says to Hermas, of the
false prophet: ‘For he speaks some
truths. For the devil fills him with
his own spirit, if perchance he may
be able to cast down any one from
what is right.’ All things,
therefore, are dispensed from heaven
for good, ‘that by the Church may be
made known the manifold wisdom of
God, according to the eternal
foreknowledge, which He purposed in
Christ.’ Nothing withstands God:
nothing opposes Him: seeing He is
Lord and omnipotent. Further, the
counsels and activities of those who
have rebelled, being partial,
proceed from a bad disposition, as
bodily diseases from a bad
constitution, but are guided by
universal Providence to a salutary
issue, even though the cause be
productive of disease. It is
accordingly the greatest achievement
of divine Providence, not to allow
the evil, which has sprung from
voluntary apostasy, to remain
useless, and for no good, and not to
become in all respects injurious.
For it is the work of the divine
wisdom, and excellence, and power,
not alone to do good (for this is,
so to speak, the nature of God, as
it is of fire to warm and of light
to illumine), but especially to
ensure that what happens through the
evils hatched by any, may come to a
good and useful issue, and to use to
advantage those things which appear
to be evils, as also the testimony
which accrues from temptation”.
Within these words are contained
a profound truth that all believers
today must realize. The Power of
God is so all-encompassing, that
even the apostate teachers and
prophets still serve the Lord. So
is the present Christian Church the
Church of God? Yes -- But not in
the manner that most Christians
would understand. Is it not
forewarned and written that:
“Many will say to Me on that day,
‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in
Your name, and in Your name cast out
demons, and in Your name perform
many miracles?’ And then I will
declare to them, ‘I never knew you;
depart from Me, you who practice
lawlessness’”
(Matt 7:22-23 NAS). Therefore, it
is established that even among those
who prophesy, cast out demons, and
perform many great miracles in the
name of the Lord, they are as Simon
Magus, and have not part in the
teachings of TheWay and the
Kingdom. This means that from your
perspective as a believer, for you
to be faithful to the scriptures,
you must question everything -- and
that includes every word that myself
or anyone else writes for you to
read. A true disciple of the Light
is one who proves the truth; not one
who believes something because it
sounds good to his carnal mind.
Why would you listen to a man
who tells you that you must
believe, when the Lord himself
told you not to blindly believe
even what he taught; as can be
seen where it is written:
“If any of you really
determines to do God’s will,
then you will certainly know
whether my teaching is from God
or is merely my own”
(John 7:17 TLB). As
demonstrated in the above
http://TheLie.org , the
Christians not only have no part
in the teachings of the New
Covenant, but in the worship of
Jesus as God, they are merely
idolatrous pagans who are using
Yeshua as an excuse for their
heathen mindset and lifestyle.
Yet, when you understand that
Paganism is the product of an
immature and undeveloped
mindset, only then can you begin
to understand the absolute
necessity of the Church.
Because the symbolism of the
scriptures are true when turned
within self, the Christians are
being used as a vehicle that is
necessary to preserve these
important symbols and
concepts. Which means that if
anyone seriously embraces the
symbols -- and truly begins to
do God's Will -- i.e.,
“If any of you really
determines to do God’s will,
then you will certainly know
whether my teaching is from God
or is merely my own”
(John 7:17 TLB) -- that these
symbols will act as a catalyst
that will begin to bring about
the necessary transformation.
Like the Pharisees, the
Christians have ritualized and
worship the symbols, and fail to
turn them within and live
them. Further, they lack the
necessary knowledge of self, and
they fail to seek the Inner
Kingdom by living
a Consecrated life where they
make their body-vessel into a
Living Temple.
Clement is correct when he
states that all people serve the
Will of God -- and the evil of
man is used by the Left Hand of
Correction (see
http://DivineManna.org ) to
bring about necessary change in
the experience of mankind in
this world. As stated, because
the Pagan Romans and Greeks were
incapable of embracing the
purity of the teachings of
TheWay, it was necessary to
corrupt the scriptures in order
to improve the condition (
http://BibleCorruption.com )
of the people. In many ways,
the Epistles of Paul were
themselves an important
corruption that made these
essential teachings available to
the Gentiles. So the Laws
raised up Paul for this purpose
-- and what evolved into a
multitude of Gentiles who wrote
under the name of Paul -- not
because he knew the Truth, but
because he
sufficiently corrupted the Truth
in order to make it acceptable
to the Gentiles. And the same
is true of the Church of
Constantine.
The key to this higher
reality that is far beyond the
comprehension of organic man, is
found in the words: "For
My thoughts are not your
thoughts, nor are your ways My
ways," says the LORD. For as
the heavens are higher than the
earth, so are My ways higher
than your ways, and My thoughts
than your thoughts. For as the
rain comes down, and the snow
from heaven, and do not return
there, but water the earth, and
make it bring forth and bud,
that it may give seed to the
sower and bread to the
eater, So shall My word be that
goes forth from My mouth; it
shall not return to Me void, but
it shall accomplish what I
please, and it shall prosper in
the thing for which I sent it"
(Isa 55:8-11 NKJ). Everything
has a purpose beyond man's
perception -- every action of
mankind is turned by the Laws
for the greater good that man
can't conceive of -- and nothing
can remain void of fail to
fulfill it's higher intended
purpose as set forth by God
through the Laws at the very
beginning of Creation.
If you are going to even
begin to embrace higher Truth
and Reality, you are going to
have to cease to eat the fruit
of the Tree of Duality that
brings spiritual death, and eat
the fruit of the Tree of Life.
The Left and Right Hands of God
work in conjunction for the
eventual good of mankind (
http://DivineManna.org ).
Thus, you must begin to embrace
paradoxical thought in order to
embrace this higher reality.
While on one hand it can be said
that the Church is satanic (see
http://ebionite.com/AntiChrist.htm ),
on the other hand the Church is
necessary for the greater good
of man (see
http://ebionite.com/Necessity.htm ).
The prodigal sons and daughters
who are lost in this, the
"far
country... outer darkness",
are incapable of knowing the
Truth and walking in TheWay --
so it is necessary to fragment
and corrupt that Truth in order
for carnal man to grasp
important teachings and
principles, and begin the
process of making change and
seeking the Knowledge of self
and the Inner Kingdom. So
while for the masses the Church
is a good and positive force, in
a forum such as this the Church
is the embodiment of evil and
spiritual depravity. And both
realities are not only true, but
are necessary in the experience
of mankind. At present the
Religious Right in many respects
is the epitome of ignorance and
evil -- but they are a force for
Good that is Ordained by the
Laws and the Hand of God, in
order to oppose the secular
Marxist Left that is attempting
to wipe out the belief and
knowledge of God. In the same
way, while Islam has become
diabolical in its murder of
innocent people in the name of
their satanic god, the evil
force of Islam is being used by
the (Left Hand of) God in order
to balance and oppose the Sodom
and Gomorrah of the secular
Marxist un-liberal left. And
if it weren't for the Sodom and
Gomorrah left, I would not be
able to publish these web sites
that offend the Religious
Right. What this means is that
all evils are used to balance
corresponding opposite evils --
all evils are necessary -- and
all evils serve the greater good
of mankind and the Will of
God.
One of the most important parts
of the equation of the
perfection of man is freewill --
and in order for man to be both
tested and perfected, the
illusion of freewill must be
maintained. If a man murders
another -- or rapes a hundred
women -- it must appear to the
unenlightened observer that he
can get away with it -- i.e.,
that the Will and Laws of God
are a fallacy -- and that man
reigns supreme. If immediate
action was brought against the
evil of man, then this world as
God's University would
be totally undermined. The
aggressor must be in the
position of victim --
under similar circumstances of
his own victims -- in order for
the learning lessons to be
effective.
From one paradoxical perspective
the Fundamentalist Christians
are a necessary force for good
-- yet they embody all that is
evil from an opposite
paradoxical perspective -- which
in and of itself serves the
forces of both good and evil.
And this is why the answer and
higher reality of all paradoxes,
are always in the third-force
that exists on a higher plane in
the manner of the point of the
triangle that exists on a higher
plane than the opposite points
which oppose each other. In a
recent post I demonstrated where
the primary fruit of the Tree of
Duality that brings death is
organic male and female thoughts
and mindset -- and it is
this duality that must be
overcome in the
Divine Marriage.
The Divine Pattern of Creation
is Male and Female in all
realities -- and while on one
level this duality is necessary in the evolution
and perfection of the soul and
the Ultimate Destiny of
mankind -- this Duality must be
restored to
"one
flesh" on all levels
of being -- i.e., Adam and Eve
must be restored to Adam/Eve. And these
things represent some of the
reasons why the organic mind of
man is incapable of perceiving
the higher reality of the soul
and the Kingdom. All forces of
good in this world, are all evil
from the opposite reality of the
Tree of Duality -- all serve the
Higher Will of God -- and
because they all are the fruit
of the Tree of Duality, they all
bring spiritual death. Only
when you can evolve the
paradoxes into the higher
third-force that is not of this
world, are you able to eat of
the Tree of Life and find
Permanence in the Kingdom.
What this means is that while
the Evangelical Christians
champion the concept of the need
to be Born Again, their words
are meaningless rhetoric from
the perspective of Higher Soul
Reality. So are they serving
the Higher Will of God? Most
definitely!!! But not in the
manner that they think they
are. And so too is the New Age
-- the Sodom and Gomorrah
un-liberals -- the diabolical
Muslims -- and all movements and
realities that are manifest in
the earth. And because of his
failure to understand this
higher reality, this is one of
the important lessons of life
that inhibits the development of
organic man.
Paul,
the man known as the Apostle of
Faith, commanded the believers:
"Put
to death, therefore, whatever
belongs to your earthly nature"
(Col 3:5 NIV).
The
vast multitude of believers totally
ignore this command, because it is a
truly difficult thing to achieve.
In like manner, the Apostle of Faith
warned:
“For
if ye live after the flesh, ye shall
die: but if ye through the Spirit do
mortify the deeds of the body, ye
shall live”
(Rom 8:13 KJV).
What
does it mean to mortify the deeds of
the body? Is this what Christians
are striving to do today? If all
that was required was to believe,
and call upon the name of the Lord
as one's personal savior as taught
today, then why did Yeshua/Jesus
warn believers:
"But
I say unto you, That every idle word
that men shall speak, they shall
give account thereof in the day of
judgment"
(Matt 12:36 KJV).
How can we be saved by faith apart
from our actions, and yet we are
commanded to put to death our
earthly nature, mortify the deeds of
the body, and never to even speak an
idle word? Christians attempt to
ignore these commandments -- and to
their own demise, they attempt to
make believe they do not exist.
From a purely
elementary perspective, one only has
to open the pages of the Bible to
see that the whole of the New
Testament teachings is concerned
with ethics, morality, and the
manner in which each of us treats
our brothers and sisters. The
requirement is that we must be
perfect, as our Heavenly Father is
perfect (Mt 5:48). This state of
perfection is referred to as the
fulfillment of the Royal Law of God,
and is measured in our forgiveness,
acceptance and love of our fellow
man. From a New Covenant
perspective, whatever is divisive,
and not in accord with the Royal
Law, is of this world, and is an
obstacle to our birth into the
Kingdom. It is from this
perspective that the requirement in
the Book of the Revelation is set
before us in the words:
"Nothing impure will ever enter it,
nor will anyone who does what is
shameful or deceitful"
(Rev 21:27 NIV).
This same truth was expressed by
Isaiah where it is written:
"And
a highway will be there; it will be
called the Way of Holiness. The
unclean will not journey on it; it
will be for those who walk in that
Way; wicked fools will not go about
on it"
(Isa 35:8 NIV).
And this same truth is expressed in
the words of Yeshua/Jesus when he
warned:
"Enter through the narrow gate. For
wide is the gate and broad is the
road that leads to destruction, and
many enter through it. But small is
the gate and narrow the road that
leads to life, and only a few find
it" (Matt
7:13-14 NIV). The
"narrow gate"
that Yeshua
speaks that we must open in order
for us to be born into the Kingdom,
has its parallels in the birth canal
that serves as the gate that each of
us has emerged through when we
physically entered into this present
world. That the next stage of birth
has its similarities, is merely the
result that all realities are
designed in accordance with the same
Divine Pattern of Creation.
 What
is truly important for us to see in
these solemn words spoken by the
Lord, is that only those who
"enter through the narrow gate"
will enter into Life -- i.e., it is
not those who believe, but those who
follow in the footsteps who are the
Genuine Christians. In order to
enter into the Kingdom, the disciple
must be bathed in the healing waters
of consecration that cleanses them
of all defilements of this world.
Therefore, the people who embrace
the culture and thinking of this
world, even when they call
themselves Christian, are those who
walk the
"broad… road that leads to
destruction".
What Yeshua warns us is that we
cannot walk two paths -- it is
either the one or the other -- and
philosophical Christians will
neither go to Heaven, to Glory, or
inherit eternal life -- without
entering through the narrow gate
that is the entrance to the
Kingdom. Moreover, if this is not
accomplished while we are alive in
the physical body in which we
presently dwell, then we will have
failed.
The Bible continually
warns us that the path or the second
birth and entrance into the Kingdom
is not easy. The strife of the
inner war within ourselves as
embodied in the symbols of
Armageddon is seen in the words:
"We
must through many tribulations enter
the kingdom of God"
(Acts 14:22 NKJ). Thus, in the same
way that a woman travails in labor
to bring a child into this world, we
must ourselves endure the
"…many tribulations"
of spiritual labor to be born into
the Kingdom of God. Since the
Kingdom is within us (Lk 17:20-21),
and Armageddon is therefore not an
historical event -- but more
factually, a spiritual event in the
life of the disciple in search of
Truth -- we must then totally
re-evaluate everything we think we
know about both the Gospel Message,
and the life we are presently
living. In fully comprehending
these biblical statements in
relation to the whole purpose of the
teachings of The Way, let us again
examine the definitive statement
which conveys to us the very essence
of the Gospel -- and especially the
Revelation of John:
"Blessed are those who do His
commandments, that they may have the
right to the tree of life, and may
enter through the gates into the
city. But outside are dogs and
sorcerers and sexually immoral and
murderers and idolaters, and whoever
loves and practices a lie"
(Rev 22:14-15
NKJ).
If the text of the
Revelation represented the end of
the world, as is commonly believed
by the majority of Christians today,
then why are those who remain
outside the city portrayed as
"dogs
and sorcerers and sexually immoral
and murderers and idolaters, and
whoever loves and practices a lie"?
Armageddon,
then, indicates the disciples
personal tribulation described as
the
"pangs of
birth"
(see
Gate Of Eden), as he endeavors
to overcome his own lower carnal
nature through the crucifixion of
what is symbolized by the flesh, in
order that he can possess the
Knowledge of the fruit of the Tree
of Life, transcend the natural
barriers of this world, and
"enter through the gates into the
city".
