one and despise the other… <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Even
without quoting Jesus, you either label yourself a Republican, Democrat,
Independent, Protestant or Catholic, Jewish or Muslim… etc., but the labels are
man-made for they are already in some magnetic vortex from which they cannot
get out. They create vortexes and suck into them people like vacuums pulls
dust. Have you fallen into one already?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">These
are only horizontal mortal dwellings. And they all perish likewise, for the
norm is the same, which is “loved and adored” and one ponders upon it;
romanticizes with a sigh of relief when death comes to claim a victim. There
must be a ceremony to calm the stressed-out nerves. A mother weeps over her dead little
child and tries to make sense out of it all, but ends up repeating the same
ritual she was brought up under. Stuck in religious vacuums without answers,
but only grief. Smoke of frankincense over that tiny coffin does not answer the
gnawing questions, nor the echoing somber singing that echoes and bounces from wall to wall of Gothic arches and up to the steeple. Yet, there are answers to why children
die, but do you really want to hear them when you are heartbroken; finding the
only solace in the ‘only true’ tradition you were told to believe in? <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Leaving
one pocket for another pocket brings no freedom to the victim. It is so hard to
give up “my own way” thinking, which in itself is a death sentence, but there
is solution… if you care to know it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

can mull over the mystery of the Trinity or even Quadrinity (when you add
angels to this union), but that’s only a theology and an interpretation; even a
most holy and entrenched doctrine, but mulling over it will not release the
magnetic pull if you are afraid to let go of the opposite magnet, which you
cling to like a magnetized scrap of paper. Someone would have to pry you away
from that other magnet, but cautiousness prevents you from allowing yourself to

I was commanded to beautify and make it more appealing. I was packed with gifts

are so afraid to let themselves go and spin in this wondrous realm of mine.
They know something and hear the bell, but know not the church steeple, nor the

moment this tool of His, which He has magnetized, must draw a number of which He
only knows; for it’s like moonlight’s iridescent silky web, into which an

<div style="text-align: justify;">
“We are not victims of our genes but only victims of our unconscious beliefs, and we can change.” - Dr. Bruce Lipton.<br />
<br />
When one is terminally ill and there’s no known cure, quite too often people think in terms of beating it or “winning their battle with that thing.” I assume that then they have the satisfaction that with chemotherapy, radiations, drugs, etc., they did beat it. Nonetheless, that's too often an illusion play out on the human psyche. Some people went deeper into God’s kingdom and the illness, tumors, cancers etc., have not returned with vengeance and they are doing just fine. In others, cancers return with vengeance invading entire body siphoning life. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS: Instead of awakening the peacemaker within, they awake the warrior. It is the prevailing mentality in most ill people. The doctors tell them to combat, to fight to resist and have faith only in that form of a warlike scenario. Yet, war never heals, but makes things worse. Only peace heals, but how?</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
Surrender<br />
<br />
This word is powerful. Many know the hymnal “I surrender all.”<br />
<br />
Giving up the illusory attitudes: “my territory, my way, my life,” we hold on to some weird ideas and rights. We are not gods, unless of course God’s Word comes to us first. (Ref. to John 10:34-35) In that word and fellowship we are then one with the Father. It’s not too hard to understand that reality. When you hold a cup in your hand and drink from it, you and that cup are one, until you put it down and separate yourself from it. The same is with God’s garments. God and His garments is one unit. However, God puts a garment and takes it off. The garment of wrath comes on and comes off. God is not wrathful.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
[Isaiah 57:16] “For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry; nor the spirit would grow faint before Me, and the breath of those whom I have made.<br />
<br />
[Isaiah 59:17] He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His head; and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing and wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle.<br />
<br />
[Jeremiah 3:12] Return, faithless Israel,’ declares the LORD; I will not look upon you in anger. For I am gracious,’ declares the LORD; I will not be angry forever.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
When God separates Himself from His garments, and when He puts us down – His vessels – we are no longer gods, we are like worms; and that’s how we should see ourselves. This self-nullified way is almost miraculous.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Isaiah 41:14] Do not fear, you worm Jacob, you men of Israel; I will help you,” declares the LORD, “and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Instead of surrendering to the Father the Creator of all living things, we give up and die, but again, how?<br />
<br />
Taking other man’s diagnosis very seriously<br />
<br />
Man deals with final things. When we watch the finality of it all it is easier for a doctor to say to a patient that according to his knowledge “this is it” than to say it to oneself. That’s not only a lack of love and care; it comes from bewilderment and sheer powerlessness.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Luke 21:26] "… men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken."</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Yet, man will not surrender his throne to the Almighty, so consequently, one must die and then lose the throne of … knowing, being in charge, trying, being smart, giving advices, impressing others, selling books, making shows… etc. However, that throne can go now. Why wait until one is forced into it?<br />
<br />
Surrendering to God takes the crushing of the human stubborn pride all by one’s self. Nothing is going to fall on you. God is not our servant. We’ve been taught wrong. We have received everything already and it is in our powerhouse the will to do anything we set our mind to. And that please our Father. He expects an outgrowth of what he had planted.<br />
<br />
I did it in 1990 in Jerusalem, ever since then, I am in the self-nullified state of mind, which means: if I die, I die. And if I live, I live … etc. It does not matter anymore, but meanwhile this spiritual elated state is mine while I study my Maker; and when I keep studying Him more and share it with others; I get even more self-nullified, for He amazes me, bringing me ever higher and ever closer to Himself.<br />
<br />
What happens then?<br />
<br />
Our daily fellowship with Him is not limited to a church or quiet time, but also when we work and earn the daily bread. I get sore and tired, but while I work I meditate on God’s peace within me. It’s my conscious choice - NOT FOR THE SAKE OF BECOMING HEALTHY OR WEALTHY, OR TO DESERVE SOMETHING – that’s not the reason I fellowship with Him. I surrender to Him, and to His ways in everything. I do not seek God in order to get, or to save my wretched fleshly life. I do it to know His secrets, Him and the power of life. The Bible calls it the seeking of the Lord.</div>
<blockquote>
[Isaiah 55:6] Seek the LORD while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
When is He near? Are you reading this? Well, He is near. Every time you read a book or hear a message He is near.<br />
<br />
[Luke 10: 8-11] Whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat what is set before you; and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ But whatever city you enter and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, ‘Even the dust of your city which clings to our feet we wipe off in protest against you; yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near.’<br />
<br />
So, whenever things of this substance are being spoken there must come the steadfast embrace and arrest of the spiritual essence of things; not just a dry pious nod of the head. Admiration is good. Thanksgiving is great. Praise Him, in your heart, and also audibly. Please never compare yourself with God’s servant for he is way above you; and you will never catch up with him. Just accept the fact that the Father has sent him your way; and that you two have met. Be thankful and support such vessel with your physical substance for this pleases the One who send the vessel your way. If you release some malice toward him or her, than it will curl up on you in some future time, and all of sudden you will discover that jealousy and maliciousness has been eating you up all this time. For some it may be too late. They let the ‘thieves’ in and have been robbed of health and must then they die. That’s how serious these things are. </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Matthew 10:29-31] “Are not two sparrows sold for a cent? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows.”</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
God’s eyes are set on you and He watches your every move, but not only He, His vessels sees it too. Imagine. When he is grieved His vessel is also grieved and sometimes can’t sleep at night; because His vessel is an intercessor. I do not want to now the number of your hair, it’s just too much. But He knows. Many things I do not want to know, and I often ask The Lord to shield me from it all. I do not want to know what people go through; it’s just too painful and too burdensome. I need a shelter.<br />
<br />
Learn to rest in Him and in His gift. Let it be. Just embrace it and run with that which you have received so far, for much more is on the way. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A lady with a tumor the size of an orange in her breast was instantly healed under my arm, and in front of a medical doctor in his own clinic. Upon examination it was scientifically verified that no tumor was found, and no cancer cells present in her entire body. The Surgeon that was about to operate on the lady—when he saw this tangible proof—was dumbstruck. But, the story does not end here. Although it was all verified and scientifically established an entire group of doctors either were not allowed to say that indeed a miracle had happened, or they could not say it out loud. They repeatedly said that they don’t believe in this hocus-pocus. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nonetheless, the scientific proof could not have been discarded as some inexplicable hocus-pocus. “A preacher prayed for the lady and the tumor just vanished.” Although, I did not even pray for her, I just embraced the lady with God’s love. Peace like a river rushed inside her body. No poisons, no needles, no scalpels; only the power of the heavenly peace. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another lady was about to undergo a heart transplantation operation. She waited for the suitable heart. Upon hearing the testimony of lady ‘A’ she asked for prayer. At that time I was in Switzerland, and the healed lady ‘A’ was in Italy. On the phone, which to me was my reality, I said, “The same God that healed lady ‘A’ will heal you, lady ‘B’.” To me it was so clear and obvious that I could not say anything else. Clear revelation. Again, it was not by blind faith, or some strong sincere wishing, but rather by divine knowledge. I connected the dots. I put together God’s intentions, and spiritually I saw no obstacles. However, with some people I see obstacles and then no matter how hard I try to encourage them in faith no miracle ever happens. I have seen so much of it that I don’t even try to encourage anyone in faith. Often their faith remains blind. It can be compared to a bridegroom who is about to marry a woman he does not know, but he also does not want to know her. Either they believe in you as a man of God, or they believe in your anointing, or they try to please you by believing just in you. All these things really constitute a blind faith as if those people feel that it’s too late for them to study God and His ways. It’s too late for them to repent and draw near to Him by familiarizing themselves with the way He really is. This lack of interest puzzles me. Anyway, this lady was different and I saw it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The expected suitable heart had finally arrived and the lady was readied for the operation. The chief surgeon started to shout at his colleagues, “Are you playing a joke on me? This lady has a better heart than mine. She can live with this heart a hundred years.” All tests revealed a brand new heart. The completely disgusted chief surgeon left the operating room accusing his colleagues of wasting his time. </div>

This is what I like to see, not some psychosomatic claims of miracles, but scientifically verified miracles. I have had the good fortune of seeing many such miracles throughout my entire life since I was 12 years of age. It has nothing to do with my anointing, or some strange powers. There is a God in heaven, and He likes to come down to us on earth when we prepare Him an honorable place. When we please Him by studying His ways, acquiring His thoughts; when we flex the Frontal Lobe, and leap forward with the new, and fresh revelatory information; we then walk in the Spirit.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Note that when someone is diagnosed with some dreadful disease, like cancer, they are being calmed. They seek peace in information as to what therapies are available, and what are their chances in beating that thing? Well that’s already a wrong attitude. When the actor John Wayne was diagnosed with cancer in 1964 he said,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“I’ve had lung cancer, the big C. But I’ve beaten the son of a bitch. Maybe I can give some poor bastard a little hope by being honest. I want people to know cancer can be licked.” </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I don’t know with what he would have beaten this SOB? With his fist or a gun? The combative attitude never heals anything, but makes things even worse. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
King Hezekiah made peace with God and was healed. God added another 15 years to his lifespan. After 15 years Nehemiah died, but he could have made peace with God again, and again and again; so why didn’t he? That’s how much God loves peacemakers. We have numerous references to peace offerings in the Bible, an endless list. There is no need to sacrifice if we walk in peace and make peace. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
John Wayne beat lung cancer in 1964; however, he died 15 years later after a struggle with cancer of the stomach. The pattern is obvious. Three times grace is the pattern. (Gracious harmony) Three means harmony. Make note of this pattern of five times three. Fifteen means triple grace, but how to draw it to our point of need has already been revealed for the greater part of this book. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those who do not understand what demons really are may be a bit lost and confused as to what the deliverance ministry is dealing with. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's a whole lot of guessing going on; some believe that demons are those fallen angels the Book of Enoch describes and that they supposedly came down to earth, sexually cohabited with flesh-and-blood women and had produced giants. The same mythology is found in the Greek culture, which calls them Titans. <br />
<br />
Demons are UNCLEAN SPIRITS, which Jesus cast out. <a href="http://newwinebooks.blogspot.com/2012/07/respect-of-dead.html" target="_blank">In My other blogs </a>that is better explained. <br />
<br />
Whatever and whoever once lived and died is not unclean until the living handles some parts of that past life. Touching a bone of a dead person makes the living unclean. Those who play with witchcraft or spiritism - calling up the dead - makes people unlearn. These definitions are found in God's Law, which does not change. Hence, Deuteronomy 18 specifically instructs us to not touch these things or even be interested in this unclean stuff; for on account of these things God was driving those nations out of Canaan through Israel. Just imagine the Holy Wrath of God. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dead spirits are unclean and they are called in the Greek language demons. (δαιμόνιον daimonion a demonic being; by extension a deity:—devil, god.) People did not know what these are so they supposed them to be fallen angel's titans, or gods - Greek mythology.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lying demons are those that are stuck in no-time zone. That means, truth marches on in the realm of time where people can still repent, be changed and return to God. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>[Micah 7:19] He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. Yes, You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. </i></span></span></blockquote>
</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This sentence: <i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"cast all their sins into the depths of the sea"</span></i> means that all sins are erased and are treated as if they have never happened. However, demons' sins are not erased if the then living did not repent, but died in sin of lying, murdering or raping etc; when these are brought up, they still want to kill, lie and rape that's the reason why they always lie. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The "Legion" man is the example. Other demons - brought up by the forbidden means - are not so malevolent, but can even behave in a quite normal way. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">[Luke 4:41] "Demons also were coming out of many, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But rebuking them, He would not allow them to speak, because they knew Him to be the Christ."</span></i></blockquote>
</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Satan had nothing to do with those demons. People who are not demon-possessed deal only with their flesh; they must make room for God's faith to make them believe in Christ as being the Messiah. The past life human energies - demons - see things from the timeless and unrestricted realm. We learn from this that making room for faith is our responsibility and it is of our will. It is as simple as being open like a child. It means that one must open the heart and mind like a child; open of education and for the new. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The current theology encourages people to test all spirits and watch out for anything evil out there. It also encourages people to "judge the spirits" be critical and scrutinize; as if they have already attained and obtained; and are so high above everyone else; and so special, that by the time they are done with all that they are either prejudiced or completely confused. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Taking things with self-nullification, like a child is of great benefit because a child is sponge-like, absorbing everything and anything and that child matures growing up in knowledge and discernment. In time he or she discerns what is the truth and what is a lie. But that freedom we often try to take away from others. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When this discernment ability is not being trained in people; but rather some spiritual superiority complexes are rather being emphasized; then people will swallow it right-a-way because it strongly appeals to self. Many 'throw a baby with the bath water.' As a result, they remain in mediocrity and in their self-righteous ways. It is our task to humble the pride of this life (flesh-and-blood obstacles that are constantly keep being drawn to the physical earth); therefore we have something to overcome. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Demons are foreign entities which do not belong in another person, they are dead (having no own bodies); they are stuck in no-time zone. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jesus often said, (John 5:19) <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><i>Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><i>[30-32] “I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. If I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not true. There is another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.</i> </span></blockquote>
</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When the Father moves the Son moves. When the Father does nothing the Son does nothing. Obviously the Father was working. People were being healed and demons were leaving people. Jesus was in the cloud of His Father's glory.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
From this we also learn (John 5:20-21) <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><i>For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing; and the Father will show Him greater works than these, so that you will marvel. For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom He (the Father) wishes. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This Father-dependance is marvelous and no one yet got it and many are not even willing to get it; for doctrinal reasons I suppose. Freedom is a wonderful thing for in it we grow, mature and develop. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">[Luke 13:15-16] But the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the stall and lead him away to water him? And this woman, a daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan has bound for eighteen long years, should she not have been released from this bond on the Sabbath day?” </span></i></blockquote>
</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Why would Satan have bound the woman for eighteen years? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First of all, Satan on his own can do nothing. If you are in the old theology that Satan fell (Lucifer, Isaiah 14) and was thrown out of heaven with his supposed 1/3 of angels (Catholic doctrine), who were supposedly under him, then you will not understand what's being said here. But if you see logic in what is being said here and tend to embrace it then you have opened a door ajar for the truth to enlighthen you. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Satan, being God's legal prosecutor, has always obeyed God. Since the New Testament comes from the Old, you must study the Old Testament to understand Satan's function. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
God can visit the iniquity of fathers only to the third; and maximum the fourth generation (Exodus 20:5), but not to the fifth, in which period of time grace must be given. When that grace is not used, when we hear, read (even as it is right now) and we squander time, being hesitant, rationalizing and examining things to death… we miss the opportunity. That opportunity is that glorious grace, which always comes through another human being, a vessel, a God appointed messenger for this season. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is now. It is today. Seize the moment. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jesus could not do miracles tomorrow when the Father is working today. If the Father works at a lunchtime, the Son must drop the food and do the Father's business at that lunchtime hour and not at dinner time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Satan is the executor of the supreme will and can do nothing on his own. If the Son can't do nothing on His own; then how much more can Satan the created-by-God being? </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Two god's theology is a dangerous thing, but the sun already sets on it. While darkness takes over, a brand new light will shine forth its gloriously intelligent light. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Don't get sleepy or drowsy. Don't miss the appointed season of God's visitation. The sun may set on one side of the globe, but it rises on another side. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Father (the Spirit) worked on Sabbath so did the Son likewise, in perfect unison. God the Spirit - the Almighty Boss - was using His Son the Ben Adam below. It is a picture for us. Being Father-dependent is the key. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jesus released the woman from God's wrath, because God's wrath has been usually unleashed through Satan. (Read the story of Balaam and his donkey and how he met the Lord's angel called Satan.)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
God's wrath poured through Satan bound the woman, but the Father showed His Son that He must loose her from it for it was the Year of Jubilee.</div>

The earth was weary of man’s violent ways. God’s sons had ALSO become flesh; their years were limited to just 120. The limitless became limited, not because of mixture, but rather because of man's violent warlike ways.<br />
<br />
God said “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, because he ALSO is flesh...” “MY SPIRIT” (of LIFE) His Spirit is Holy and precious, when that Spirit is vexed within men of violence then He wants to leave and not abide anymore with us. God's Spirit was grieved then and in many He is grieved today. <br />
<br />
Just think about it for a moment. Once you start this glorious trail back to your Maker, and continue on it, you might end up becoming God's PEACEMAKER.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
The characteristic of His sons is peace and never violence as it has been supposed for more than 2000 years.<br />
<br />
Supposedly, God's sons, the angels, came down to pollute, rape women, produce giants and fill this earth with wars. Who came up with this complete nonsense, and who keeps on propagating it today? Those who still do it, greatly sin against God, against heaven, against us - His intelligent children, and against anything decent, pure and holy. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Luke 10:5-6] Jesus said, “Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’ If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.”</blockquote>
<br />
Lesson # 1<br />
Spot the potential (sometimes hidden) seed first. Don’t waste your time. <br />
Discern first who is of the peacemaker material then proceed. <br />
<br />
Lesson # 2<br />
[Proverbs 26:21] Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire, so is a contentious man to kindle strife.<br />
<br />
Detect contentiousness first; that means: if no one wants to listen, but only talk and question, giving no room for intelligence and logic then leave them alone. Save time and the pearls you carry. <br />
<br />
Lesson # 3 <br />
[2 Timothy 2:15-17] Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, and their talk will spread like gangrene…. <br />
<br />
Empty chatter involves those that let themselves be involved accessing parts of their brain only to be used for quick 'yes' or 'no' for anything showy or contentious (just to make oneself important) is an unnecessary clatter.<br />
<br />
Luxum Light World Evangelism stands for:<br />
<br />
1. The light of truth<br />
<br />
2. Jesus is the king and the Messiah who came first to make the world know one God, righteousness and reconciliation. God could not judge the world without offering the world the chance of knowing Him and His ways. For this reason (Romans 11) He partially blinded the Jew and partially harden the heart UNTIL the fullness (the number to be saved and reconciled with God) be full or complete. Then the veil over the Jew will be removed. Then comes an end of this age. Mission accomplished.<br />
<br />
3. We do not seek the field for in it (the world) God hid His treasure - His sons and daughters. The first sign (top of this post) these people display is being a man of peace; if one does not find such person one then moves on to seek another potential son and daughter—God’s seed, His sheep and His treasure hidden in the field. For that reason Jesus paid for the entire world for in He found His treasure—us. <br />
<br />
4. Evangelism. We preach the gospel to all. Just as rain falls on the godly and ungodly, righteous and unrighteous so we spread the gospel. Then, (according to Matthew 7:20-27) “By their fruits we recognize them or will know them to be God's seed, or tares, or the neutral field, which has nothing to do with God or His Kingdom (Matthew 13:38). <br />
<br />
5. Reformation: the devil is a man, Cain’s offspring imitating and doing his deeds, a Kenite. <br />
Jesus was led - by the Holy Spirit - into the wilderness where both Satan and the devil were about to tempt Him - speaking from the below (human) side - and to test Him - speaking from (God’s) above side. (Greek word “Peiradzo” speaks of both, test (God's test), man's, e.g., material, glory, pomp, fleshly attachments, love of money and power, etc…). <br />
<br />
The angel Satan is not Lucifer and he did not fall. The shiny being in the Garden of Eden NECHASH became a serpent right in front of the eyes of Adam and Eve. God showed them the consequences of transgression. It could have been Satan or one of God's angels, whom He can turn into anything, either good or bad; for the purpose of dealing with man. <br />
<br />
Here are just five examples of God’s absolute sovereignty over His entire creation.<br />
<br />
1. [Judges 9:23] God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech, [57] Also God returned all the wickedness of the men of Shechem on their heads, and the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came upon them.<br />
<br />
2. [1 Samuel 16:14] Now the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD terrorized him.<br />
<br />
3. [Psalm 78:49] He sent upon them His burning anger, fury and indignation and trouble, a band of destroying angels.<br />
<br />
4. [1 Kings 22:23 KJV] The LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee. [NASB] Now therefore, be-hold, the LORD has put a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the LORD has proclaimed disaster against you. <br />
<br />
5. [Isaiah 45:6-7 KJV] That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. [NASB] That men may know from the rising to the setting of the sun that there is no one besides Me. I am the LORD, and there is no other, the One forming light and creating darkness, causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these.<br />
<br />
God taught Adam and Eve the YES and NO the TOV and RAH - good and bed - so that they might learn to choose wisely. <br />
<br />
In Deuteronomy 30:19 God calls us to make the right choice.<br />
<br />
We shall not be judged because we fell being tempted, but rather that we did not choose what's right after God created the contrast for us as He did for Adam and Eve in Eden. We will be judged individually and not as group under one or another belief of a group, church or denomination. <br />
<br />
[2 Corinthians 5:10] For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. <br />
<br />
No leader, pastor, king or president will be judged for His or her subjects, but each individual will give account for his or her own words and behavior. <br />
<br />
6. Logic. If heaven has no territory then there is nothing to fight over. No wars are necessary. <br />
• If in heaven God’s perfect love rules casting out all fear, where pride of this life is not even possible; then there is no need to rebel or fight. <br />
• If in heaven there is no darkness how can anyone hide anything, like plots to overthrow a government common to earth only? <br />
• If in heaven there is no time; then how can anyone prepare and plan any intrigue any planned overthrow of God’s sovereignty as it is known in the realm of time on earth? <br />
<br />
[Hebrews 1:7 & Psalm 104:4] And of the angels He says, “Who makes His angels winds, and His ministers a flame of fire.”<br />
<br />
[Luke 20 34-36] And Jesus said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; for they cannot even die anymore, because they are like angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. <br />
<br />
* Angels, winds, flames, spirits [Hebrews 1:14] But to which of the angels has He ever said… (…) Are they not all * ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?<br />
<br />
Genderless beings do not marry and we shall be like angels. <br />

[Start of BI] * There are a) overcomers and b) angels. Overcomers (a) are called men; (b) angels are winds, spirits and flames—incompatible with flesh-and-blood human beings. <br />
<br />
* The three angels that visited Abraham were two men and one angel. That one angel was most likely Gabriel for in Him was God’s Name YHVH hence Abraham addressed the LORD. But those tow men (clearly stated as men) went to fetch Lot and his family. They took them by the hand and physically escorted them out of the twin cities on to a safe distance. <br />
* Men like Melchizedek the king of Salem had no genealogy, no parents, no beginning and no end; an overcomer from Enoch’s period of time (Genesis 14:18; Psalms 110:4. <br />
<br />
*Enoch was the first overcomer and teacher of the same; hence, later in the biblical text, we have the appearance of men (students of Enoch) with angels. Hebrews 7:3 …without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life…)<br />
* [Genesis 19:12] Then the two men said to Lot, “Whom else have you here?” The third man was an angel with whom Abraham bargained over the 50, 40, 30, 20, and then the MINIAN, which means ten of righteous (TZADDICKS) in those twin cities. This tradition of the TEN MEN continues to this day in a synagogues or house of prayer shull), without at least ten men no prayer service can begin. God’s presence rests on the TEN which speaks of divinity, Hebrew letter YUD.<br />
<br />
*(Genesis 18:16-33 As soon as He had finished speaking to Abraham the LORD departed, and Abraham returned to his place. This third being, an angel, was called the LORD YHVH.) <br />
<br />
* Fire does not hurt an angel: [Judges 13] [16] The angel of the LORD said to Manoah, “Though you detain me, I will not eat your food, but if you prepare a burnt offering, then offer it to the LORD.” For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the LORD. Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, (…) [18] But the angel of the LORD said to him, “Why do you ask my name, seeing it is wonderful (extraordinary, wonderful or incomprehensible פלאי)?” (…) [20] For it came about when the flame went up from the altar toward heaven that the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar [End of BI]. <br />

7. Peace & peacemakers<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[John 14:27] Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.” </blockquote>
<br />
Where did Jesus get this peace from, from a heaven where wars were or still will be? Where Lucifer supposedly rebelled and 1/3 of angels fell. What kind of peace? <br />
<br />
Hence, it is not of this world through which properties people filter their imaginations about heaven, God and His kingdom. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Matthew 5:9] Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Romans 8:14, 19] For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. [19] For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God.</blockquote>
<br />
<b>The first God’s son was Adam. </b><br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Luke 3:38] Genealogy of Jesus, …the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God. </blockquote>
<br />
Adam and his sons were called as God’s sons. Only after the birth of Seth and Enoch the biblical text mentions the birth of daughters to Adam. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Genesis 5:4] Then the days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years, and he had other sons and daughters. </blockquote>
<br />
Until then no daughters were yet born. At that time Cain was long gone sojourning in the land of Nod where he married another—most likely a Sumerian woman of Ashur. God does not condone incest for His is consistent in His character. He forbids incest. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Leviticus 20:17] f there is a man who takes his sister, his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, so that he sees her nakedness and she sees his nakedness, it is a disgrace; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people. He has uncovered his sister’s nakedness; he bears his guilt. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Malachi 3:6] For I, the LORD, do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed.<br /> <br />[Hebrews 13:8] Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.<br /> <br />[James 1:17] Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.</blockquote>
<br />
Morality is one. God is one. The truth is one. It never changes. <br />
<br />
Genesis 6 shows the mixture of the compatible with flesh-and-blood beings from which emerged the giants as the first clash of genes; hence we trace gene-a-logy. <br />
<br />
Not as a result of the mix that God limited man’s years to 120, but rather of the continual evil, violence, unrest and strife with no break and now repentance. NO PEACE. To repent one would have to have a little love for God and His creation, but there was none. <br />
<br />
God’s sons had “ALSO” become as the rest of mankind. <br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Genesis 6:3] Then the LORD said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; nevertheless his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”</blockquote>
<br />
This would be sufficient reason to wipe out mankind; hence the word “nevertheless” or “yet” as if reconsidering and giving the process a chance. <br />
<br />
After 6000 years this process comes to an end and out of it comes the remnant, the triumphant and glorious, overcomers, peacemakers and sons of God. They have triumphed over those other genes and conquered flesh. <br />
<br />
The message ends with these two verses. Please watch the word PEACE.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[John 16:33] “These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”—Jesus.<br /> <br />[Revelations 3:21] “He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne”—Jesus.</blockquote>

One either fears or has the assistance of the Holy Spirit of Truth who helps us to recognize anything false (John 16:13).<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If one hides in ignorance and in suspicion, one has already accepted ignorance, but why? We are either lovers of the truth or lovers of the unknown and still hidden in the obscurity of darkness, but there is the Spirit of Truth and His mission is to do exactly that - to reveal the truth about everything.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Falsehood (illusion) is temporary, but God's truth remains forever.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Since we are not judges, sitting in judgment seats, we must ask God the Spirit (John 4:24) to show us the truth. That takes a childlike humility, doesn't it? Try it. It works. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a name='more'></a> All inspiration is from God the Creator. That's how he made us. We possess the spirit of life, which we had before this physical world was. God created human souls and not just upright walking frame, which we overbearingly pay attention to.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Holy Spirit gives us light and then we see only the truth; and then no longer (sort of wickedly) 'enjoy' suspicions and half-truths, things hidden in darkness. It takes a firm resolve, a decision by which we demonstrate to God and to ourselves of what stock we are. Are we His sons or not? Think about it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;"><b>Since you can't do anything about conspiracies, then why filling your mind with nonsense?</b> <b>There is a purpose, which God watches over. Rest in Him.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Liars never openly lie they hide those lies in a package of something that looks innocent, like feeding the world, helping victims of natural disasters, but those things are nothing more than a smokescreen. Behind this smokescreen are many hidden things, a drive for world dominance, full control of all gold reserves and centralizing. <b> </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;"><b>Anything hidden in secrecy is never of the truth. The truth stands in perfect light on the hill and with wide open arms inviting us all to embrace it.</b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Illusion is a pretense, neatly camouflaged ulterior motives, which are nothing else but lies; these can only hide in time and darkness of this earth, but never in the timeless heavenly realm. hence. Anyone filled with the Holy Spirit is able to see through and then it is not fascination anymore. One leaves the secret machinations to those that wallow in that realm of illusion, I hold on to the truth. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So again. Why wasting time on intrigues or conspiracy theories?<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Imagine your mind filled with holes, like the black holes in our galaxy. Those black holes suck into their vortex-like funnels anything and also anyone wanting to look inside with curiosity. Those curious ones want to know what's in them; and in no time they get sucked into them.</div>

<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Excessive anger or fear can
permanently disrupt many structures and functions in both your body and your
brain. These destructive emotions interfere with memory storage and cognitive
accuracy, which in turn will disrupt our ability to properly evaluate and
respond to social situations. Anger makes people indiscriminately punitive,
blameful, pessimistic, and unilaterally careless in their logic and reasoning
skills. Furthermore, anger encourages your brain to defend your beliefs—be they
right or wrong—and when this happens, you’ll be more likely to feel prejudice
toward others. You’ll inaccurately perceive anger in other people’s faces, and
this will increase your own distrust and fear. It’s an insidious process that
feeds on itself, and it can influence your behavior for very long periods of
time. Eventually, it will even damage important structures in your brain. </span></i></blockquote>

[End of quote]<br />
<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensationalism" target="_blank">Sensation</a> calls out to sensation and in this frame of mind even the bright light of truth gets drowned for it is often labeled as being something foreign or strange, like Freemasonry or other secret sect, because the mind was trained to think in those terms. <br />
<br />
Anyone harboring secrets will be attracted to the same. A suspicious mind has a hard time believing and accepting something with childlike kind of a mind; hence, we must be converted and become like children. We waste precious time cluttering our mind with stuff we have nothing to do with. That's a big waste of God's intelligence. <br />
<br />
Truth is often 'on the tip of our noses' it is plain and simple, childlike, but those who have been predisposed to think farfetched thoughts - charged with conspiracy theories, plots and intrigues trash - do not recognize the knock on the door. Jesus (the Truth) stands at the door of your heart and knocks. <br />
<br />
Light attracts light. Truth attracts truth to have fellowship with.<br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">(Read 2 Samuel 22:26-27 & Psalm 18:20-26) </span></b><br />
<br />
God repays people according to their deeds and the way they go about Him and His kingdom. <br />
<br />
However, if your mind is attracting the light of truth then you are like the wise virgin by having enough fuel for your oil lamp for the coming of the Bridegroom the Messiah. <br />

onto the shore many fishes; and then the ministering spirits - God's angels -

It can be
compared to a marathon race where the marathon runners start to run, but they
are being prevented from running the full race. They are stopped at 100 meters
being treated as sprint runners instead. Imagine the frustration of those who
go to church just to make it to heaven being taught to trust Jesus.
Justification by faith is only justification, it is not yet righteousness, but
a positional justification, or exemption from duty, but is it? Since we will be
accountable for every careless word—said Jesus in Matthew 12:36—then how much
more for our deed. But that does not fit in the present theology. As a result
we are being taught to see ourselves as God sees us and accept ourselves as we
are, on the basis of the done work of Christ on the cross. Then we must believe
of course that we are saved and made holy. But, we keep on struggling with that
faith for we are constantly kept on the outskirts; as if not allowed to go
deeper into God's most glorious kingdom. A marathon runner wants to run the
full race and overcome the distance and outgrow the babyhood and its ‘diapers’

Matthew 13:41
& 48-49 speaks of angels doing the separation of the good fish from the bad,
the chaff and stumbling blogs, tares from the field, etc. It is one and the
same act being portrayed with many similes for the reader to grasp the one and
timeless spiritual dimension. The good fish are ‘kosher’ (fit to be eaten); the
disciples of Jesus did that also. But other fish, like catfish, serve as
cleaners or vacuums of the sea floors; they have no scales and they are deemed
as being unclean, not kosher. </div>

It means that you must only seek

God’s ‘hidden or lost’ son then you will also find His seed whose fruit would
be peace. In a response to your greeting of peace they will make room for
NAVEH, the habitation place for the dwelling of God’s gift of faith. Preach, teach

Quite obviously, just the
observational basis does not satisfy the kingdom’s requirements. Divine healing
needs love, compassion and connection; it does not work from a distance, as if
watching a show, or analyzing and trying to figure out the preacher with one’s
suspicious or prejudiced mind. The preparation of NAVEH—for the gift of faith, for
His word, for His peace and above all for the messenger of God—takes more than
willingness. If we find a man of peace then as the first step our peace then
found its resting place, then more is on the way. Sons always will respond to
the same quality, which is sonship.</div>

Jesus is the vine; even a tree,
the Tree of Life, and God’s sons are the branches of the same tree. The Tree of
Life has fruits that fall to the ground and each fruit contains the core with
one or many seeds. The right milieu or environment makes this seed grow yet
another tree, but in fact it is the same tree because it is the same kind. That
tree’s seed produces another tree with the same fruits; hence, anyone not being
of that kind will not be called a son, but a hireling.</div>

People often avoid anything
negative, having almost an aversion to anything negative, yet the negative emphasizes
the positive. God’s seed has no problem with it because the seed is good. The
good discerns and quickly recognizes anything evil. <i>We are IN the world but not OF the world. </i> One must make a choice; left and right;

Jesus said, “But If you do not

or inappropriate response to your greeting of peace; then act accordingly. If
it is negative; then do not stay in that house, take back your greeting of
peace and go elsewhere. You are not called to waste time or scatter God’s treasures.
“Do not throw pearls before swine.” In other words, He said “Find Me the Lost
Sheep of the House of Israel, the lost seed, lost sons and those that love the
truth.” Those who are of the truth will come to Jesus for the Father will draw
them to His Firstborn; and naturally so for they belong to the same tree being
its branches or extensions. In time they will bear much fruit and thus prove to

BIZARRE TRAITS<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Demonic presence often manifests itself in fear when facing anything new. This fear controls those who stay in the old dogmas of the dead predecessors. Again, the fear of anything new - in religion - comes from the control of those dead predecessors who are treated as having a better understanding or knowledge. For some strange reason we see the dead as saints; and the presently living as sinners... I suppose, or not worthy of being called a saint, someone worthy of veneration in terms of being a messenger of the heavenly truth. If there came a saint, like Jesus, who just appeared, preached and performed miracles we would perhaps see Him as false; the scripture clearly states that He was viewed as yet another sinner, even as a deceiver and as someone that <span style="color: red;">*leads people astray.</span> </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>[Luke 4:28-30] And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things; and they got up and drove Him out of the city, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him down the cliff. But passing through their midst, He went His way.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>[Luke 11:14-16] And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute; when the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the crowds were amazed. But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.” Others, to test Him, were demanding of Him a sign from heaven. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>[John 7:12] There was much grumbling among the crowds concerning Him; some were saying, “He is a good man”; others were saying, “No, on the contrary, <span style="color: red;">*</span><span style="color: #cc0000;">He leads the people astray.</span>”</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>[John 10:19-21] A division occurred again among the Jews because of these words. Many of them were saying, “He has a demon and is insane. Why do you listen to Him?” Others were saying, “These are not the sayings of one demon-possessed. A demon cannot open the eyes of the blind, can he?”</i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If the prophet Isaiah appeared in our midst we would warn everyone against him by hiding behind that fear, which we have nursed on for so long. We give it to others to suckle on, lest our kingdoms of false beliefs should fall. The grounds for the dismissal of the presently being amongst us prophet Isaiah - and by labeling him as being false - would most likely come because of his words, which don't fit in today's theological fabric of beliefs. <br />
<br />
[Isaiah 45:7] The One forming light and creating darkness, causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the LORD who does all these.<br />
<br />
Because of the popular Satan theology, this verse would rather blame Satan, the devil, demons, fallen angels or giants etc, but not the Almighty God, which the word "blame" would not even apply. Indeed, there is nothing to blame God for, for He is God. Period.<br />
<br />
Instead of studying God in truth we quickly settle things with our theology and make things final using dualism - God vs Satan - when reading Isaiah 45:7. But what about the entire Bible? Here is another example of the God, which most Christians hardly know. Instead, we got ourselves into an utopian realm of self-made beliefs, e.g., blame the devil and hope to escape the fires of hell, etc... As if Jesus was completely different from the God of Israel, even a new god, the Christian god... yet He spoke of His Father... what Father... what kind of a God? <br />
<br />
[Deuteronomy 32:39] ‘See now that I, I am He, and there is no god besides Me; it is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand. ... "Oh no Lord. Please don't say it. It is not You, it's the devil. You are only sweet, good, You are love. Period. I don't want to hear anything else!" <br />
<br />
As a result we stopped studying God and brood in Christian theology as if that is our ticket to heaven. Jesus only redeemed us from our own sins and wrongdoings, He intercedes for us (where?) before the Father. Why confusing things? Why muddying the clear waters? And then, we neatly put Him in our <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/48988848/A-God-Named-Theology" target="_blank">theological box</a> and settle things as being final. (<a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/66052428/Ein-Gott-Namens-Theologie" target="_blank">Deutsch</a>) <br />
<br />
We are in the pocket of our dead predecessors, those from the past living during the period of great confusion; those who came from the Babylonian, Persian, Greek mythology and the Roman exiles (after 70 AD the Christian era. Why do we tend to respect them more than the presently living. So, the dead is a saint and the living is a sinner. The pure holy, timeless, and eternally fresh is not prized, but rather the old and stale and the out-of-different periods of time things. Yet, our God is eternally new, fresh and it is TODAY if we hear His voice we must not harden our hearts (Hebrews 4:7). We call the presently new as false; and something old, and well-trodden, as something true and worth sticking to at any cost, that's a worship of the dead. <br />
<br />
The Bible, God's Word, does not age, but its interpreters do. A present-minded person is free of any dead people's influences. Each time we read God's Word, it is always fresh and new, but the moment we go by what has been handed down to us from, let's say 500 years ago, we go into their well-established-by-now doctrines; so, we follow the dead. The past is filled with dead bones and full of uncleanness. These words Jesus spoke confirming the TORAH. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>[Matthew 23:27-28] Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of <span style="color: red;">dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.</span> So you, too, outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.</i></span><br />
<br />
Right here we see that anything dead is unclean. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>[Numbers 19:18-20] <span style="color: red;">‘A clean person shall take hyssop and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent and on all the furnishings and on the persons who were there, and on the one who touched the bone or the one slain or the one dying naturally or the grave.</span> ‘Then the clean person shall sprinkle on the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day; and on the seventh day he shall purify him from uncleanness, and he shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and shall be clean by evening. <span style="color: red;">‘But the man who is unclean and does not purify himself from uncleanness, that person shall be cut off from the midst of the assembly, because he has defiled the sanctuary of the LORD;</span> the water for impurity has not been sprinkled on him, he is unclean. </i></span><br />
<br />
Anything unclean is deemed as coming from something dead. Then come the grading: 1. unclean 2. evil, 3. malevolent 4. violent etc, it all depends on the dead person state in which they died. Like the "Legion" man who gashed stones against himself - for he was possessed with the violence of the Roman legion, violence in which they had died - many harm themselves by staying in the dead old stuff. <br />
<br />
Staying in the past can be comforting, for the past does not bother you now; it is dead for crying out loud. The future might make you anxious - if you are into conspiracy theories and all sorts of intrigues of the wicked - what remains is the right now. So, how do you handle it so far? <br />
<br />
There are people who are oppressed, but not necessarily possessed. Some are being influenced by the dead, e.g., the dead's (fathers, mothers) wishes and desires for their children, their controlling influence may hinder the progress of their offspring. Those kind of people you often see on the "Jerry Springer Show" and also on the "Judge Judy" and other court shows. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">NOTE: This is a very long subject; therefore, anyone who is not yet reformed will not even grasp it for one will keep on denying, e.g., hiding in their self-made pretense, but it is not self-made, it is often demon-made pretense, deceitful; hence lying. It is like doing the dead person's bidding; as if obeying his or her wishes and desires. No progress, which can only take place after one embraces the truth and become as an open letter with no hidden things basking in the light of God's truth. An honest person is true. An open-minded person is also true. Closed-minded person has something to hide already; for one tries to protect something lest the true reality might slip out and then one would get caught, lose face and any built-up respect etc... A transparent person is always of the truth. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A clear sign of demon-possession is no progress. A person stuck in the past stays in the unclean dead stalemate, for one is not willing to pay the price for the new garment and the new wineskin. Instead, one is cautious and hides behind those verses that hedge those embraced beliefs. It is more convenient to stay in confusion, but then that's demonic. One has fenced him or herself in a dogma and warns everyone else against the fresh and new and the straight from the now-living eternally pure and holy God. They act out those demons who hinder their progress. <br />
<br />
The "Book of Enoch," actually a complete trash, which gave people a "Harry Potter" fantastic plots of cosmic proportions - keeps many a captive. The author of that book had no fear of God whatsoever, a Kenite, and he shall be burned up with fire and be no more, for so it is written and understood. Such people have no clue about spiritual things; they do not care about life eternal, but only about the now; for they have no life eternal and they know it. The afterlife is basically immaterial to them. What matters to them is money and the now-moment. To remove someone from their path poses no moral dilemma. Those lovers of money and power do not blink an eye, while getting rid of their opponents. People disappear; perish in strange accidents, or die in hospitals from a mysterious illness, or they are just whacked a mafia style. Kenites, seated in high golden chairs, with fully loaded theological guns, have established themselves in religion making it their business to keep people blind and ignorant. We do not dare to touch their brand of religion or their authority, but why? Who taught us this? Answer - they. They hate God and those He sends. They stone the prophets, manipulate crowds, crucify the righteous, gas and cremate their bodies. They do it because Jesus said that they do not know God, nor them He sends to them. Those that God sends do disturb them and their well-establish hierarchical systems of ascendancy. It's been so always. There is no conspiracy, it's been like that since time immemorial. <br />
<br />
Our resolve is to become wise and stop being stupid. But too many fight back defending their stupidity and you can't break through those filled with fog thick skulls. <br />
<br />
The seducers to falsehood in the Klal (congregation of) Israel had to be stoned, but that was only in the first stage of Israel's spiritual development. Now, we are at the end of time, and many things are permitted because the monotheistic frame has already been well established, but the picture has been obscured, and now the living picture must be made clear again. We are the remnant God is really after; the first fruits before the final judgment. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>[Deuteronomy 13:10] You shall stone him to death because he has sought to seduce you from the LORD your God who brought you out from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.</i></span><br />
<br />
The seducers can delude themselves with fairytales and crazy imaginations, but the moment they export it and pollute other people's minds; then they must be destroyed. From these exports come many false teachings, which dissuade others from following the truth by complicating the straight ways of the Lord. Hence, Paul's and John's protective words - in 2 Corinthians 11:4; Galatians 1:6-9; 1 John 4:1-6 - they had to protect the flock. Again, today we live in the latter days, so the rescue battle rages. <br />
<br />
Anything that seduces us with sensationalism, or shifts our attention away from the sovereignty of God by postulating any evildoing in His pure and most glorious kingdom is indeed evil, seducing and false. Anything that leads us back to God - on the straight and narrow path (the Truth) - is of God, for on that path there are no shadows and no insinuations; everything is plain, straight and true. No double tongue and no ulterior motives; no political maneuvers and strategies, just plain and simple truth. God's kingdom is no business. It is the brightest of all lights; hiding nothing in those most glorious shafts of light. <br />
<br />
So, how can anyone accuse this sort of a ministry of being false? - A devious person, malicious and uncaring; perhaps even a demon-possessed person. This to me is shocking, but I write what I hear. I never went that far before, but now the time has come, obviously. <br />
<br />
Another of those predecessors of falsehood was St. Augustine and others who gave us the (supposed) fall of Satan and the trash that followed afterwards. Those saints are dead and that makes them all the more saintly in our mind - in an odd way we do worship death. I would assume that after a long time, after my death, I would also be called a saint. That's how pitiful we have become. Apostle Paul addressed his letters to the still living saints not the dead ones. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Who will liberate you from this seduction? It is the living that is clean. It is the living bread and not the old stale bread that gives us nourishment for each day. Eat it and grow in the Lord!</span><br />
<br />
Yes, the dead still keep many in their UNCLEAN grip. I was in that grip for much too long; until (Yeshua) the Lord came to deliver me from it. (I know the day when He came. I know Jesus well. Yes, I then, in that sense, became a rebel, for I broke away from the pack of wolves who pretended to be the sheep; or they were just plain stupid, naïve and uneducated respecters of the dead teachers. The outdated is respected like antiques. Old cars bring old memories, old furniture brings old memories etc; we do not know what future holds, otherwise we would love it.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, I lay my life down for others, even for you. I do not care anymore if someone labels me in error or false. I rejoice in it for I know the Truth that made me completely free from man's bondage. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>[Matthew 5:11-12] Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

My books are the living testament to that freedom, power, strength and straight logical truth. Anyone can read them and decide; and for that very reason God gave us logical minds. <br />
<br />
He allowed us to go through pollution and confusion, which was caused by those with meager insight and spiritual IQ's only to cleanse us from it in the latter days, as it is today. He waited for their repentance, but their cup was not complete yet. He waited for the iniquity of Canaan to be made full; that's the reason why He had hindered Israel from invading Canaan for 430 years and then He gave another 40 years to those nations (read Genesis 15:16-19). <br />

Even your daily trash is taken out and disposed of each day or each week. A trash truck comes and picks up your garbage bins; should we not do the same with the accumulated theological trash?<br />

braham met the
king of Peace, Melchizedek, who had established Salem, today’s Jerusalem, the
city of Peace, which the Jebusites occupied. Later on, David took the city back
for God. Melchizedek, most likely was one of the students of Enoch who came to
earth in order to initiate God’s residence in Jerusalem. Based on this, the
Kingdom of God is not in killing of animals and continual sacrifices, or peace
offerings, which serve as an appeasement of God’s wrath, but choosing and becoming
peacemakers. God’s Kingdom is the actual heavenly peace and a work of
righteousness. </div>

If God’s Spirit translated the
evangelist Philip from one place to another in one moment (Acts 8:39) why would
it be so hard to imagine that God took Enoch the same way? God snatched Enoch,
(Hebrew, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">l’kach</i>, to take) God
snatched Elijah and He also snatched (Greek, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">harpazo</i> to catch away, pluck or take) Philip. This Hebrew word <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">l’kach</i> was used when the Israelites were
about to take possession of Canaan. God wanted them to take it determinedly and
decisively. Our walk with God must be the same and based on this action, God
will do His part of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">l’kach</i>. That
blessed peacemaking path is being paved right now.<br />

Confidence and trust can only
manifest itself in peace, and there will be no need for more of the peace
offerings. God seeks His sons the peacemakers rather than yet another sacrifice
or covering of sin. I think we should rewire our brains by not falling in love
with sacrifices, and the constant pleading of the sacrificial blood of Jesus,
but benefit from the paid price and overcome. </div>

The nervous system—which is found
in every fiber of our bodies from hair ends to the bigger organs like the
liver—distributes messages of peace, or unrest. The cardiovascular system is
one big bundle of nerves and muscles, which contracts and expands, and which
can continue working up to 120 years and in some cases even longer. The word
‘contrition’ comes from compression and decompression, and nerves are
responsible for these movements. Nerves can also block all movements, and
movement means life, for “In Him we live and move and exist” (Acts 17:28). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Jesus said to the rigidly stuck
in religion people, “You will know the truth and the truth will make you free”
(John 8:32). In another place the Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Truth
(John 14:17; 15:26; 16:13; Ephesians 1:13). The seal of the Holy Spirit is not
a binding thing, but rather liberating. This oneness of Jesus—who called
Himself the Way, the Truth and the Life with the Holy Spirit—is astounding. </div>

We associate liberty with peace

The nervous system acts like a
network of rivers, which eventually spew out into seas and oceans. Nerves convey
signals and messages and like rivers spew their contents into the brain, which
recycles them. Oceans are responsible for the weather patterns, just as our
brain is responsible for our overall wellbeing. </div>

The unwillingness comes from the
predominant addiction to warlike ways. Whether it might be in a family, school,

The warmongers can’t hear the
truth for they are too much in the contentious and strife-like part of their

quarreled over them so Isaac went on and dug new wells; only at the fourth well
the contention stopped. Isaac was a peacemaker. </div>

Peacemakers do not only have
peace but are peaceful, and above all make peace. They proclaim peace; and

Earlier we spoke about the blood
crying from the ground (Genesis 4:10). But, Abel’s blood did not cry for
vengeance; for Abel was pleasing to God, a peacemaker. The word (Hebrew, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">tza’ak</i>) speaks of crying out for help,
or for mercy, not for punishment, which vengeance is. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In the Book of Revelations Jesus is
depicted with fiery eyes and sword in His hand and this type of Jesus appeals
to some much more than the humble and coming-out-of-the-baptismal-water Jesus
with the peace dove above Him. The angel with the drawn out sword was Satan and
he opposed Balaam’s intentions to curse Israel. I see no logic in the Book of
Revelations; hence it is there for our test. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The tables-overturning Jesus, the
one in a holy rage, appeals to those who harbor images of vengeance. What about
the God who never avenges foes like Nero, who condemned the first Christians to
be eaten by lions? Have you thought about that yet? Actually, all of God’s
enemies will be burned up and will no longer exist in neither realm. God’s holy
fire will annihilate anything that is not supposed to dwell in the realm of
heaven’s complete peace. Even the souls that corrupted themselves on earth, and
have never repented; will be erased from existence, in both the physical and spiritual
realms. This biblical fact has been misinterpreted, and falsely assumed to be a
place of eternal torment, hell. But ‘burned up’ means ‘burned up.’ To lose soul
means exactly that, lost forever and never discovered anywhere. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Imagine the same Jesus who told
us to love even our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44),
now is imparting into us vengeful desires that go on beyond the grave. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Book of Revelations is very
complicated for it evidences John’s ambition to cut a figure among the
churches. The John of Revelations is not the same John the beloved the disciple
of Jesus, but a different John. God, through this book is testing all
peacemakers; that’s the reason it must remain in the biblical canon. The choice
is ours as to being led of the Holy Spirit, or of a man’s doctrine. Our fascination
should be with the true nature of the heavenly realm rather than when the false
prophet comes, the beast and the antichrist. From the same book one will choose
something that matches the central truth, while another will choose a fragment
that feeds only the sensationalistic disposition. </div>

Out of this chapter the
war-makers created elaborate doctrines about spiritual warfare. God does not
need to fight, His glory and peace overpowers. Period. Those who do not know
the way of peace know only the earthly ways of war and territorial struggles. Does
God need our help? A split faith is no faith at all. All religious practices
are to keep us busy. Activities that do not benefit our peaceful/righteous
disposition lead to confusion, which is not of God. God is not a God of
confusion, but of harmony and peace (1 Corinthians 14:33).</div>

The limbic system became stronger, since most keep accessing it more frequently

and are too quick to act on them. If it were that our genes don’t remember,
then the heavens do remember for even science tells us that everything is being
recorded in the celestial realm. It is the time to part with those old ways,
and embrace the new way of peace and thus alter our genes’ makeup. </div>

The Hebrew word <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">SHALOM</i> is extremely rich in meaning. It
speaks of completeness, soundness, welfare, completeness (in number), safety,
soundness (in body), welfare, health, prosperity, quiet, tranquility,
contentment, peace in friendships and human relationships; peace with God especially
in covenant relationship, peace (from war). In the Holy Land Israelis greet
each other with this word and say goodbye with the same, often saying it twice,
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">shalom, shalom</i>. They say to each
other not “how are you doing” or “hello” but “what’s the sate of your peace? - <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Ma Shlom Ha?</i>” So where are you with the

but we use warlike ways to satisfy our selfish ambitions. This duality is
destructive. Bringing things to the fore, and by articulating those still

Living God did not create the inevitable finality. As we continue in the exploration
of peace, and its healing properties, we will also discover immortality. </div>

These verses refer to five
different anointings or ministries not just to pastors, but also apostles,
prophets, evangelists, and teachers. “Building and equipping of the saints.”
Who are these saints? Let’s consider the definition of holiness: a holy person
is someone who is set apart and dedicated to things higher than just self. Such
one serves by building up others. A saint serves, but that servant must be able
to endow others. If that saint has no heavenly wisdom; then he or she has
nothing except the ability to stir up, and fire up others in faith. But, which
faith, our faith, or God’s gift, which needs no encouragement? <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
As I look around, I see an
endless encouragement in faith, but hardly any life-changing knowledge. An amateur
and lame psychology is prevalent. As an example: If I see a duck and I am
hungry then I will do anything in my power to shoot the duck and eat? Or this: If
my cat has four legs and my dog has four legs, then my dog must be a cat? If
someone pins wings to my cow then my cow is a bird. I hear this sort of
unintelligent rationale. An audience sits there with open mouths agreeing with
that silly logic for after all it comes from a leader, pastor or even a
founder. We confuse authority with logic. Faith is not the only thing that
needs an endless pounding on. We have already beaten it to death. The dead
horse won’t get up. We encourage ourselves in faith because of the enemy’s
plans. And he is so sneaky. Someone said that he “wanted to be on the
devil’s hit list,” … as if he has one. I said similar things in the past when I
was still in this kind of a mindset. </div>

list for he is a man and not an angel, but you do not want to be on his list.
It’s no joke. It is quite similar to the marketing tactics in which merchants
develop strategies for different types of clients. We respect the pulpit, but
what falls from it are just scraps of isolated information. Faith does not come
from hearing a few articulated words. The resident-in-heaven faith comes to us
at the appointed-by-God season, and under His conditions. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The gifts are there because of
the anointing. The Holy Spirit comes because of the anointing. He comes to
equip, to teach, to reveal, to comfort, to guide, and to remind. If we do not
sharpen our minds and educate ourselves, then altogether we should forget about
trying to achieve faith. </div>

Just as He prayed

the ultimate self-nullification, no fleshly pride whatsoever. But did He mean it?

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The source scripture for the anointing
is found in Isaiah 61:1-3. “The Spirit of the LORD God is upon Me because He
has anointed me to...”—I am anointed to do something, to accomplish something,
or my job is to proclaim, to lift oppression, to heal, etc. Therefore, I must
have the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Anointing does not come and go,
but the Spirit of the living God does. As far as the different dimensions of
His presence are concerned we can experience more or less of Him. The Holy
Spirit is compared to the River of Life as mentioned in Ezekiel 47, and by
Jesus in John 7:38-39. Isaiah called it the river of peace (Isaiah 66:12). Hence
we can have more of water or less, bigger river or just a stream. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
God’s anointing is not He, but IT;
therefore IT does not teach, but HE the person does. The misunderstanding
begins with the mistranslation of the First Letter of John 2:27. The original
manuscript came to us quite damaged. The sense was lost, leaving the
responsibility of correction to the compilers, and then later to the translators.
But when we read it, while being anchored in Isaiah 61:1, we then connect the
missing pieces. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[1
John 2:20] But you have an anointing (Greek, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">chrisma</i>) from the Holy One, and you all know.</blockquote>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The discrepancy is found in the
gap between Hebrew and Greek. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Chrisma</i>
means an unguent, which is a balm like soothing preparation spread on wounds,
burns, rashes, abrasions or other topical injuries; hence something smeared. Special
endowment or charisma was an additional idea attached to a healing balm. The
Hebrew anointing <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">shemen</i> was not
necessarily used to heal, but rather to mark someone as a sign of an office into
which one was being installed. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now, being rooted in Isaiah 61 we
read 1 John 2:27 this way: </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0.5in; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
As
for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have
no need for anyone to teach you; but [because of] His anointing [He] teaches

has taught you, [you therefore] abide in Him. </blockquote>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In the original Greek the last
sentence actually reads: “as HE taught you, abide in HIM,” which would complete
the logical flow of John’s expression. The word ‘abide’ is used in the
beginning of this verse and also at the end. Everyone would agree that the
anointing always abides in/on us, for the Bible says that the gifts and callings
of God are IRREVOCABLE (Romans 11:29), or without repentance. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Between Holy Spirit the person,
we have the anointing as something mysterious, yet it is not so. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Christos</i> (Greek) is <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mashiah</i> (Hebrew), the anointed one. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Jesus</i> (Greek) <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Yeshua</i>
(Hebrew, salvation) was not only charismatic, but also, and above all, He was the
Messiah—the anointed one to save; and precisely because He was thus anointed He
received the fullness of the Holy Spirit. No one had the fullness of the Spirit
but Jesus was not selfish; and His generosity is beyond our grasp.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Oil was God’s marking for His choice
or appointment. Whatever the office required the anointed one had to be
equipped. The demand was often too great. To rule God’s people with wisdom was
not an easy task; therefore the power from on high was sent to enable the
anointed. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Holy Spirit came immediately
after the ceremony of the anointing, which was not always visible. Examples:
Samson, Gideon, king Saul, king David, king Solomon, the prophets, the Messiah Yeshua
(Jesus Christ) and the five-fold ministries of the Prophet, Apostle, Evangelist,
Pastor, and Teacher. And, because of this marking comes the Person Holy Spirit.
Although portrayed as a delicate humble dove, Holy Spirit is the Power of God
by which all things in existence were created. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
When the physical
anointing-with-oil was finished the Holy Spirit came upon David and remained on
the king and prophet all of his life. Yes, David’s anointing signified two
offices—king and prophet. He had one anointing for two offices, not double
portion of the anointing, which would make no sense. The double portion of the
anointing idea comes from these words: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Shnaim
BrucheHa Ali,</i> “Please let two portions of the blessing (that was on Elijah)
come on me (on Elisha).” God is one. You are an individual just as I am. You
have one anointing, and I have one anointing; and because of the anointing the Holy
Spirit comes and does supernatural works. This anointing does not come and go
and cannot be washed off, ‘it stays on you even in the hot shower.’ <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
King David was sensitive to the
grieving of the Spirit—on David’s account—and of His coming and going; hence
his words: “Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy
Spirit from me” (Psalm 51:11). Repentance was David’s key to God’s heart. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
When Elijah transferred His
authority to Elisha oil was not used, but mantle, which Elijah was wearing. Elijah
was taken to heaven and Elisha continued God's work. Elisha died and we find no
place in the Bible that mentions a transfer of Elisha’s anointing. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
One must understand that in God’s
eyes a person and his garments are viewed as one unit. Those that touched the
garment of Jesus, or those of the apostles, were healed as if the person himself
had touched them. (See Ezekiel 44:19) Elijah was told to appoint another man as
prophet in his stead. That means, that if you take off your garment (being
anointed), and place it on someone else you lose your anointing for you have
just passed it on to another. That’s what Elijah did. It is fine if that’s what
you’ve been told to do, and you are about to leave this earth, but if you plan
to continue serving God in the capacity of your anointing then you’d better be
carful. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My people are destroyed for lack
of knowledge.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The Spirit who was upon Elijah
was also on Elisha because of the anointing. This is the same Holy Spirit that
raised Jesus from the dead (Rom. 8:11). He is always active and it was the Holy
Spirit that was hovering over Elisha’s bones, although a corpse is deemed to be
unclean. The power of life was there as if longing for the living body, or
grieving over Elisha’s passing, because his mentor did not hit the dust, but
was translated to heaven. The grace that was on Elijah was also on Elisha, but…
(More later.) Elisha did not anoint someone else in his place as his master
did. Elisha’s soul rested in peace in Sheol/Paradise while his bones rested in
the physical ditch. Into this ditch another corpse was accidentally thrown and
the deceased came to life (2 Kings 13:21). Here we have a very powerful example
of God’s workings even beyond the grave. The IT did not raise the dead man, but
it was HE the person because there was the body, vessel and former temple of an
anointed man of God. Holy Spirit is eager to do the supernatural works through
His anointed. He can’t wait to bring peace and joy into your life. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
What is it that we attain to? Is it
the jaw-dropping sensationalism and empty entertainment? The apostles
encountered these attitudes among the mythology-reared Greeks. The fascination
with mythology continues to this day. In the old days, the apostolic teachings were
boring, and the people ignored them. To get people’s attention, they had to
incorporate local folklore. But, that does not mean that the allusions to
devils and fallen angels were the Bible truth. This trash really came from
Babylon then Persia and then from the two hundred years of Greek domination. Hellenization
was really a horrific period for the writers of the Bible, worse than the
Babylonian exile. Greece’s pagan and very much imposing “culture” severely impaired
the monotheistic mind. Only the one that held on to the one sovereign and fully
in control God; would endure and overcome all that nonsense. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
It was sophisticated and smooth
kind of a war that was waged upon the monotheistic mind. The classical
Hellenistic philosophy was very appealing, and although in that pot of dirt
gold and diamonds were also found—as far as the One God is concerned—it was too
polytheistic. Mythology mixed with philosophy remains impotent when it comes to
our relationship with the living God. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The Maccabees fiercely resisted
this invasion, and intrusion, until the Roman period; and had it not been for the
eventually victorious Hasmoneans we would have nothing to say in this book.
But, to a certain extent, we are still in that kind of mentality, and though
it’s not so much polytheism that impairs our view of the one God, but rather dualism.
Some might say that I have a huge job ahead of me. Actually, it is complete. It
is as tight as a submerged submarine. All that you may notice here are just
pieces of this glorious ‘puzzle.’ Regarding this matter I have perfect clarity.
Time will show it to be so, and quite soon.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I was also deeply into this (nowadays) 'mythological trash' for at least 20 years, but the diligent, almost crazy
seeking of God, paid off. He revealed Himself to me in the beauty of His
brightly shining truth. How can I betray Him and all that He revealed to me by
going after the popular and this mind seducing trash? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
If you have not yielded your mind
yet to the last reformation, before the return of Christ, your psychological
disposition would still crave sensationalism. ‘God’s love is boring. Peace is
boring. Gentleness is boring. All the fruits of the Holy Spirit are boring.
Give me the show, the power, the spectacle.’ </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

You can paint over a rotten piece
of wood and make it look attractive but it is still rotten. All you need to do
is to take the knife of truth and cut through it. Would you find that more

Remember that anything true must
be opposed and tested; otherwise, truth has nothing to offer. The best test of
truth is the accusation that it is a lie. The truth will emerge triumphant,
thus proving it to be the truth. Only the wise recognizes the truth and then
embraces it. The accusation of the truth, as being a lie, can give us a
headache; and the time lost on its defense cannot be easily recovered. <br />

Every good car, or appliance, has
to pass through inspections and tests. The inspector looks for flaws and
anything that might be wrong with the product. He or she scrutinizes the
merchandise. That test may be unpleasant and viewed as something negative. When
it is done to us we don’t like it; we may even loathe it. After meticulous
inspection, a car or an appliance must undergo unpleasant tests before it can
be marketed and sold as something true and worthy of its brand name. But,
again, this is the reality in the material world. What about the spiritual
realm? Are we not also spiritual? <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Bible is very clear about the
mission of Satan, whom God made to act (a created being) as a prosecutor in the
court of law; hence, the frequent references to the faultfinder and accuser. In
modern terms, Satan can be compared to an aggressive criminal attorney,
district Attorney or prosecutor, one who is in God’s court and therefore under
His complete sovereignty. We do not like prosecuting attorneys; we may even
hate them when they stick their noses in our private business. The soul (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">nephesh</i>) dislikes it. But, now, since I
have given you little education, and rationality (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">ratzon</i>), which approach would you choose—the rational or the
emotional? We attain to a sober and intelligent mind for the same source of our
disliking also functions in other areas of our lives. A true peacemaker went

Mine.”) </blockquote>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Watch the word ‘angry.’ God was
angry so He sent His angel. (It was rather His holy garments that got rattled.
God personally does not get angry. More on this later.) But who was that angel?
The NASB is consistent in the use of capital letters in words that refer to God
and Jesus, but in this case this sentence ends with ‘me’ as if Balaam’s way was
contrary to the angel’s way, and not to God’s. Angels never speak from
themselves, for they do not have self-identity, but rather the God-identity;
something we aspire to achieve through the use of our will. (This is pleasing
to God. Jesus submitted His earthly will and self-identity to God in Gethsemane;
and because of Him we can also.)<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
However, Balaam’s heart was set
on cursing Israel. Most likely he was greedy and was promised more than money. When
God’s garments are rattled, automatically an angel is sent. This angel was called
Satan and he told the seer that his way is contrary to God’s way. Now watch the
confusion. If Balaam’s way was contrary to the angel’s way then the angel would
have acted on his own will; hence, having an identity. Angels are not
sovereign, God is. If Satan were only evil and spooky then Balaam’s cursing of
Israel would suit him just well. If Balaam’s way was contrary to Satan’s then
that would make no sense since he was going to curse Israel anyway. Satan is
not sovereign, God is. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Let’s untie this knot and make us
free from logical errors. Satan is the expression of God’s wrath—rather of His aggravated
holy garments—and his (Satan’s) mission is often unpleasant, but only to the wrongdoer,
never to the righteous. The angel that stood against Balaam with a drawn out
sword was his adversary. In Balaam’s eyes that angel was bad and quite
naturally so. If you were going to curse someone God loves, and God would send
a swordsman angel against you would you like the swordsman? God in His
displeasure uses angels whom He can turn into adversaries if the situation so requires.<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=2837060719702213577#_edn1" name="_ednref" style="mso-endnote-id: edn;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference">[i]</span></a> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Now, the war on earth has nothing
to do with any heavenly war. We have believed wrong for much too long; and
still go about it the wrong way. God’s heart and His garments are like sons and
hirelings, fruits and gift, etc. To Moses God revealed His heart, but to
strangers only His garments. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><br /></i>
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Power has gone out of Me, </i>Jesus said when the woman with the blood
issue had touched only the hem of His garment (Hebrew, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">tzitzit</i>, a fringe of righteousness), yet He said,<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> who touched me?</i> Although God and His
holy garments are inseparable, before one would pierce His heart one would have
to go through His garment, which the prophet Isaiah clearly described (59:17). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The seer’s real intention was to
answer Balak’s call, and profit from cursing God’s chosen. God sent an
angel—who in the original text is called Satan—in order to oppose the seer. God
always sees the true intent of heart and never our lifted hands, dancing feet,
or burning incense. Religious works do not impress Him. Balaam was warned to
speak only that which God would put in his mouth. The fear of God was instilled
in him and his wicked ministry turned into a blessing. The son of Beor was a
hireling, and although he did his job well, he was later killed for his evil
counsel, which was given privately to this effect: ‘the only way to overpower
Israel is through sex and harlotry’ (Numbers 31:8; Deuteronomy 23:4-5; Joshua
13:22). Here we have a clear example as to how God sees us. We are not known by
our gifts, but always by our fruits. It also shows us how hirelings behave and
how sons do, or ought to behave. The Moabite leader Balak promised Balaam
rewards, “for I will indeed honor you richly” (Numbers 22:17). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Only sons attain a level of
maturity, even perfection, for they see great value in sonship. The hirelings
see no profit in sonship, but rather in instant gratifications; hence,
everything goes, truth or lie, pretense or honesty… as long as the show goes on
and money rolls in. </div>

<span style="font-size: 10pt;">Examples of this fact
are found in many places throughout the Bible long before the development of
the Satan theology, first in the post-exilic Palestine and in Christianity. “God
sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem” (Judges 9:23). “An
evil spirit from the LORD terrorized Saul” (1 Samuel 16:14). “The LORD has put
a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets” (1 Kings 22:23).
Difficulties reconciling these verses in today’s theology stem from dualism,
e.g., God versus Satan. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in;">
he Bible speaks
of three kinds of people, the field, the tares and the seed (Matthew 13:38). It
is something that can be compared to three dice thrown on the table each
turning up a different number. We associate numbers with wealth; the more
numbers appear in your bank account the richer you are. Six zeros added to any
other number represent a million or millions.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<a name='more'></a>Each parable of Jesus contains a
deep meaning; these are the secrets of God’s kingdom, which many words could
not explain. Similes and metaphors—according to today’s knowledge—can only be
grasped by a mind that is also able to think in abstracts. Mathematics does not
improve our brain as much as abstract thinking. But, this abstract thinking is
actually infinite and boundless. It’s been proven that we remember better by
associating. For example: you have misplaced buttons, which you have planned to
attach to your garment, and have forgotten the place where you have left them. But,
if you had associated the place with a skyscraper like Chicago’s Sears Tower;
and then those buttons with the huge wheels of a Mack Truck, or an earthmover; then
you would have no problem finding those buttons. However, the opposite is with
computers, the more data you enter the more you clutter the disc space and
eventually you will run out of memory. But, our brain seems to have infinite
space; the more you put into it the quicker it works. The more you educate it,
the better it remembers and faster it connects. These opposites must be
accepted with understanding. The last is first, and the first is last. The
great is small, and the small can be great. The rich is poor, and the poor can
be rich… A circle has no beginning, and no end. All round objects in space
represent infinity; hence, our earth and its moon look endless. They might fall
apart, but their debris can be re-gathered, changed, and restored back to their
former round shapes.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Our earth and moon may fall apart,
yet they exist in the mind of the Creator, and also in fragments somewhere in
space. All fragments in space testify of their origin, which is in the One.
Even a minute dust particle can be gathered back to the unit from which it
broke off. Even fire itself, which decimates a rock, can be rolled back in time
and be reconstituted. Both the fire, and the rock, can return to their former
state. Nothing is lost. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
God has the substance of things
hoped for, but He does not need to hope for anything for hope represents a need
and anticipation, which in turn needs a span of time. God is infinite and
timeless. Unlike our thoughts His thoughts are instantaneous; hence in His mind,
things are, and hope plays no role. To a physical person, invisible and
intangible things seem nonexistent, yet we also have the proclivity to create,
and also the capacity that can bring thoughts into visible tangible reality. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Let’s imagine that you have no
brain, you live, but in a vegetating kind of state. You may breathe, but no
muscle moves because it has no physical brain to command it and to coordinate
any movement. The physical commander is the brain; because of the commander’s
absence the entire structure remains motionless. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Let’s imagine God who is Spirit
(John 4:24) having no contour or physical mass. Many people worship His
creation as they would worship God; hence, these people keep on attaching body
to the Spirit. This need, to touch and physically see, is enormous. </div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[Deuteronomy
4:15-18] So watch yourselves carefully, since you did not see any form on the
day the LORD spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire, so that you do
not act corruptly and make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any
figure, the likeness of male, or female, the likeness of any animal that is on
the earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flies in the sky, the likeness
of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
A blessing awaits anyone who has
not physically touched, tasted or seen, and yet has believed, but with what
kind of faith, blind or educated; hence also intelligent? We glorify faith
itself as something magical, so many nurture only wishful thinking in this
regard. A blind faith is fruitless, and it does not come from the disciplined
creative part of our being, but rather from the primitive one. Like a Neanderthal
that believes that he can make a kill with his javelin; so he stalks and runs
toward the prey. If that kind of a faith is also applied to God, and the
supernatural works; then one runs, huffs, and puffs but to nowhere. </div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
[John

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
An educated faith is quite
different from anything else we have ever come across. For example: Philip
heard the Holy Spirit telling him to join the Ethiopian Eunuch. Philip did hear,
but hearing alone does not do the job. It’s like a flying plane that never
lands. Once Philip had obeyed God’s voice, he then landed on the ground and did
some work. He shared the Gospel, baptized the man and then went on his way, but
then that same Holy Spirit snatched him and transported him to the Azotus
street, where another mission awaited Philip (Acts 8:40). That’s an educated,
or intelligent faith. That faith must bring forth the intended fruit for which
it was sent; it must land on the ground like that plane, which was not only designed
to fly, but also to take off and land somewhere else. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Faith is God’s gift; (1
Corinthians 12:9) this divine power affects the miraculous in our lives. The
exclusion of this possibility brings harmful sadness into our lives, which
blinds us for we have limited ourselves to just the tangible and the seen. We
activate only the natural man and neglect the spiritual man. Just as there is
the need to prepare a place for love or peace in our lives, we must also
prepare room for God’s gift of faith.
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
An animal is hungry so it forages
in order to satisfy the need for food. Predatory creatures hunt. We work and
earn money, buy food, or go to a restaurant, but this kind of faith is called
little (Matthew 6:30). The frontal lobe has little to do with this kind of
faith. It is the limbic system that coordinates our movements just as it does
in a pack of wolves working out their hunting strategies. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in;">
heard God telling
me to go to Russia for a nth time and again smuggle Bibles. A couple of days before
my flight I had a frightful dream. I woke up in a cold sweat. It was clear to
me that I was going to be arrested and imprisoned. It was still Communism
(1984), and I was more than a Bible smuggler. There were many other reasons
that might have given the authorities grounds, not only for my indefinite
arrest, but also for an exile to Siberia—with which I was later threatened. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I asked the LORD regarding this
dream, which He obviously gave as a warning against my going. Being quite
confident in my logic I asked Him ‘if I should go?’ To my surprise, He said
that ‘He had appointed an angel to deliver me and that I should go to Moscow.’
I had reasoned within myself as to whether I should stick my neck out, and see
the angel, or stay where I was and see no angel. I chose the first option because
an educated faith dictates it. (Some years earlier, I had made a solid covenant
with God regarding my own will. Well, I lost my will then. My life ceased to be
precious in my own eyes, neither had I realized then that ‘I no longer have my
own free will’ nor do I have ‘my own eyes.’ All is His.) Imagining things is
empty and futile. Proving things as coming from God is not just the substance,
but also the actual work of faith. I had exchanged my attachment to life for
something far better.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I went straight into the lion’s
mouth. I was searched, arrested and imprisoned, but before they took me, God
appointed a time for me to preach the Gospel. I seized the opportunity knowing
very well that this was my chance to fulfill my mission in life as His
Evangelist. I picked up one of the confiscated Bibles. I lifted it and said, “This
is the Bread of Life, which you are about to take away from the hungry mouths.”
From there on it was like prophesying. All the arriving travelers were not in a
great hurry to go anywhere. They stood around me for about 20 minutes while I kept
preaching in Russian. (I learned Russian in school, and from my father, a
native of Russia.) No one dared to move. All officers stood frozen, still, and
terribly perspiring. Their frightened red faces dripped sweat. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
People just stood there watching
this wild preacher. I was practically laying down my life for the Gospel. The
Lion of Judah in me roared, and I seemed to have lost my natural senses. I can
imagine watching myself through their eyes—as something extraordinary.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I finished my preaching and
invited all those around me (about 100 people) to give their lives to Jesus.
One of the Customs officers in charge whispered in my ear telling me that his
mother was also a born-again Christian. Then I told him, “Now you know what to
do with those Bibles.” He winked. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The next day, an angel of the LORD
with a smiling face came to the rescue. My being was flooded with the heavenly
peace. Then, he told me to run after him. I wanted to remember his face. All I
can say is that his rather golden short hair was well trimmed. His eyes were
piercing blue. His face glowed. His skin seemed transparent without one crease
or a wrinkle, discoloration or even a minute pimple. He wore a high-ranking
military uniform and everyone along the way kept saluting. He took me through
all the security checkpoints bypassing all the metal detecting gates and
scanners. There was no time to go through it. Everyone watched us running in
disbelief as if Yuri Andropov himself was passing through. He brought me to a
plane departing for Frankfurt, West Germany. He seated me in First-Class. The
plane was almost completely empty. The door closed, and I arrived in
Frankfurt. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Another example from my life: I
received a call from a stranger who had a dream in which he saw the exact
spelling of the name Luxum. This man told me about his dream, about his
spirituality, and the prophetic call on his life. He was interested in my
response. Instantly I realized, that this young man needed some sorting out.
Obviously, God had directed him to me to do just that. But, this man started to
hide behind the stereotypes, which too often keep getting recycled. He talked
about seducing spirits, false teachers, and prophets, and of being careful. I
could not tell him otherwise and could not bring him closer to spiritually
logical sobriety. The time was inadequately too short. I referred him to my
website and my writings. I also told him that if he wants to be cautious and
remain in that attitude—never venturing out to find out if both the dream, and
the leading is of God, of man, or of seducing spirits—then he should not have
attempted to even find a man with the name Luxum. It’s better for him to
squander the opportunity and go nowhere. He seemed to have chosen caution
having only the satisfaction of being ‘spiritual’ which is fine if that’s all
that matters to you. I never heard from him again. </div>

ince time immemorial, wars have impressed certain data into our genes, which we will carry for an indefinite time. Our scarred DNA carries properties that fight rather than contribute to our triumphant development. The moment people hear the word “triumphant,” they think of war, oppositions and struggles. Can this DNA data be changed? Can it carry different information? And if so, what would influence it to the point of a permanent change? <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Hidden influences upon genes appear to affect every aspect of our lives. At the heart of this new field is a simple yet to some extent contentious idea that genes act as memory banks. However, these memory banks do not remain inflexibly locked. Our genes undergo modifications in accordance with our experiences. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
A family gene pool contains memories of its predecessors as well as whatever they have been exposed to, whatever they have done themselves, or had been done to them. Tragic, painful events leave scars, we say, but these scars are not external. Through my observations I have noticed that those who have lived in peace for centuries have a completely different disposition than those who have experienced many wars. I watched the Swiss and the Polish; the latter are more complex people. I prefer the relaxed Swiss than a sour-faced person, be it a Russian, Ukrainian or Polish. Although Americans were not directly exposed to the ravages of war they carry the patriotic pride element because of the necessary won, or unresolved wars, although the ‘necessary’ sometimes stands in question. The Vietnam War still haunts us. The compulsory draught of our boys ‘scarred and twisted’ even more their DNA strands.<br />
<a name='more'></a> Whatever your grandparents faced—occupations, hazards, environments, the water they drank, food they ate, and the air they breathed—influenced their DNA. And if that is true, then what you do today could in turn affect your own descendants for generations. The information this book contains may set you on an irreversible course to betterment.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Caring mothers reduce the likelihood of stress in their children’s lives. Tests on rats have revealed that if the mother inadequately cared for its young then certain genes in her offspring have been permanently marked. The opposite was also studied; caring mothers produced well-adjusted happier young. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Holocaust survivors carry “scarred” genes that surface whenever World War II is brought up. A German pastor from Nuremberg once told me that he stayed with a family of Holocaust survivors in Israel and bluntly asked the lady of the house, “Why don’t you hate me?” He was surprised when he heard her answer, “We know how hate feels, and we don’t wish it on anyone.” This Christian pastor was just given a practical lesson in peacemaking, which comes in a package that includes care.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Since the inception of Christianity, the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">original sin</i> doctrine has been very much alive in almost every denomination. If that were so, then we would be doomed and would not ever recover from what Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden. If no change is possible, and we can only hope for God’s mercy, then we had better stop preaching, teaching, and writing books. It is not the holding-on to salvation with the skin of your teeth—until the final day when we are about to knock on hell or heaven’s door—but improvement and spiritual growth. There is something to overcome and our ‘genes will thank you’ for it. We can change, even on our own. We do have the power. But also, just as it is in sports, we must find joy in jumping over obstacles. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
When God gave His law to Moses, He did not give a set of rules that would be impossible to follow. If we think so then we would mar God’s real character. Now, is that nice? The impossible was not of God’s making, but of man’s. It is our lack of will rather than our inability to obey God’s law. We have become like merchants; we must see value in everything before we bargain. If you don’t see any value in being righteous, or in peacemaking, would you rather profit from war? If so, then you must die, for those who use the sword die from it? What we practice makes us who we are. The choice has always been ours. But, can dedicated peacemakers make a living from peacemaking? All forms of violence eventually bring death, be they internal or external. Our rather delicate psychologies can’t endure it for too long. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
If I can challenge you and open your eyes making you see a great value in peacemaking, would you “buy” it? Remember that peace heals and restores. Peace transforms us. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
New information comes your way, and all you need to do is to embrace it and run with it. Don’t convince yourself that you cannot change, or that demons control your life. That’s a copout. As long as you live, everything can be changed. Think about the remorseful thief on the cross; he still had the time. But, the other one, the shameless one, squandered his time of grace. As long as Ananias and Sapphira still lived they could have repented, given up lies and agreed to tell the truth. But, their time ran out and they died without the possibility of change. As long as the king of Judah Hezekiah lived, he could change, and he did. He confessed his sins and wept; God’s response was healing; and then He prolonged his life. Repentance works in a realm of space; therefore grace. Once space is taken, and grace withdrawn, repentance is not possible. After the great trumpet sound, on the last day, no one will repent then, but each will give account of his or her life before God’s throne. </div>

[Mark 3:28-30] Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”— because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.” </blockquote>

Ananias and Sapphira ran out of time and died on the spot—that’s a sin against the Holy Spirit. Lying to Him or attacking Him in any way can be detrimental. As long as you can still read what’s written here, you are alive and well, and about to get even better. The right information often saves lives. Anyone having the knowledge of resuscitation, or the life-saving procedure applied to a victim of choking, saves lives; that’s the power of knowledge. The same applies to spiritual matters. People needlessly die after they have kept obeying those malicious war genes. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Here are some important facts gleaned from recent scientific discoveries. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
For nearly a century, most biologists held firmly to the “neo-Darwinian” dictum that organisms are strictly determined by their genetic makeup, which is essentially isolated from the environment, so characteristics acquired during one’s lifetime can never be transmitted to the next generation.<a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=2837060719702213577#_edn1" name="_ednref" style="mso-endnote-id: edn;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference">[i]</span></a> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
If one of your parents had trained very hard to become an Olympic tennis champion, you would not expect to be born with particularly strong arms or be a child prodigy in tennis unless you happened to have inherited the right genes from that parent, and it would not have mattered if he or she trained for the championship or not. That was because genes were supposed to remain constant except for rare random mutations; random in the sense that the mutations bear no relationship to the environment, so your parents’ experience can never influence your life. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
New research reveals that you could be getting not so much the right genes, but “retro-genes” from your Olympic tennis champion father. That is a very significant finding, because [the] mother’s influence, through the egg cell, and the womb, has long been recognized as an important part of the environmental (non-genetic) input for development, while the father was supposed to contribute nothing before birth except his genes. Now, it appears that the father’s experience, too, could result in “retro-genes” that might be passed on via the sperm.<span class="MsoEndnoteReference"><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=2837060719702213577#_edn2" name="_ednref" style="mso-endnote-id: edn;" title="">[ii]</a></span><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
With Dr. Lahn’s permission (a geneticist at the University of Chicago) I’d like to emphasize some aspects of his research. Dr. Lahn worked with the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research to craft a novel theory about the origins of the Y chromosome, which is widely used today to determine ancestry. Lahn’s paper<a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=2837060719702213577#_edn3" name="_ednref" style="mso-endnote-id: edn;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference">[iii]</span></a> on the recent evolution of the human brain asserts that new versions of two genes are currently spreading through the human population, and that these genes are more prevalent in some geographic regions than others. He has speculated that these genes may be linked to brain size and intelligence and wonders if the mutations—one of which took place roughly 40,000 years ago, the other, 5,800 years ago—correlate with the development of art, written language, and the founding of cities. And he stepped on more than a few toes when he noted that, geographically speaking, the changes had occurred pretty much everywhere except sub-Saharan Africa.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Scientific data point to the first human habitats arising about 40,000 years ago, and recent discoveries have pushed this date as far back as 100,000 years ago, which would predate the biblical account, creation of Adam (6,000 years ago).<a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=2837060719702213577#_edn4" name="_ednref" style="mso-endnote-id: edn;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference">[iv]</span></a> The earlier dates explain the existence of people like the Sumerians (5700-4900 BC) and also Cain’s words to God: “… whoever finds me will kill me” (Genesis 4:14). Most certainly he was not speaking about his own family, but rather of ruthless people who preceded Adam. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Dr. Lahn examined the DNA of 1,184 people around the world, although not in racially mixed areas like North America, Russia, and Australia. He estimated that one undamaged variation, microcephalin haplogroup D (V1), first appeared around 40,000 BCE and has since spread to about 70 percent of humans. A second variant of the gene, abnormal spindle-like microcephaly, associated haplo group D (V2), arrived more recently, around 6,000 BCE, and has since spread to 30 percent of humans. It is most common in Europe and the Middle East.</div>

I call the abnormal gene “unusual” or “unique,” for it arose at the same time the great mix occurred—i.e., when God’s new creation and its genetic pool collided with people of a completely different genetic makeup: “The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward” (Genesis 6:4). </div>

Yes, God permitted it all; otherwise those other, non-Adamic people who made up the rest of the world would have been extinct. A study of purely hereditary structures of the body is no proof at all, simply because it does not examine life itself. We must follow quite a different line of thought. Remember that in Genesis 1:26 the spiritual man was created first! In Genesis 2:7 the physical man was formed from the ground and with him the original human genetic makeup. </div>
