Judges 9: 1-6. "The Package."
Tumblr media
Following is another Song like the Song of Deborah that introduces our next Shoftim, Abimelek, the King of Polish.
Songs are prophecies that do not follow as fixed a format as other kinds of verses in the Torah and Tanakh. Songs are mysteries conveyed by God that are meant to be found. Unlike the other aspects of the Torah which are "hidden in plain sight", Songs are hidden out of sight.
Unlike Secrets which are found in Hinduism which are not at all secret, meaning all one has to do to discover the secret is to stop lying to oneself, the Secrets in the Torah are all delusory as they magnify a Jew's intense superstition about the possibility of the direct and personal tutelage of God. Both are instrumental in the formation of the Jewish Self.
Before the song in this section, which is rife with mystery begins there is an introduction. Recall that Jerub Baal, the aspect of the ego self one must conquer is the "god of promises", someone who mistakes the material for the ethereal which is the polar opposite of a Shoftim. Even one who is Shechem, "stands on the shoulders of his teacher" must beware of the god of promises:
Abimelek
9 Abimelek son of Jerub-Baal went to his mother’s brothers in Shechem and said to them and to all his mother’s clan, 
2 “Ask all the citizens of Shechem, ‘Which is better for you: to have all seventy of Jerub-Baal’s sons rule over you, or just one man?’ Remember, I am your flesh and blood.”
3 When the brothers repeated all this to the citizens of Shechem, they were inclined to follow Abimelek, for they said, “He is related to us.” 
4 They gave him seventy shekels[a] of silver from the temple of Baal-Berith, and Abimelek used it to hire reckless scoundrels, who became his followers. 
5 He went to his father’s home in Ophrah and on one stone murdered his seventy brothers, the sons of Jerub-Baal. But Jotham, the youngest son of Jerub-Baal, escaped by hiding. 
6 Then all the citizens of Shechem and Beth Millo gathered beside the great tree at the pillar in Shechem to crown Abimelek king.
We are not flesh and blood till we invoke the Songs of the Angels. Otherwise we lack the capability to be self-aware. To become self-aware includes the ability to know what is real, what is unreal, and what is hidden, well beyond our attitudinal eyesight but is also real.
To understand the angels one must first understand the Alefbeis, the vehicle the angels use to induce sentience. Angels like their letters exist in complex choreograpy relative to a well organized traffic jam that is moving at light speed. There are no accidents or collisions or sorrows in the manner in which the angels conjugate with each other to propagate the universe, nor are there within the structure of the alefbeis.
As in the drafting of a scripture, a letter, an email, lyrics for a song, there are specific structures, layers, mechanisms all contained within what we call a grammar. The Grammar of heaven includes angels, gods, archangels, seraphim, etc. like atoms and ions and quanta each serves a role in the way creation works and also the way the human brain is pushed out of its animal format(s) into a sentient species, of which the Jew is the height.
Completion of this process involves threshing or cutting. In the same way wheat is planted, harvested then threshed, pulverized and baked using something that is just a fraction of the original wheat field, so is the process of learning the Torah and becoming Jewish. The Shoftim says the goal is the Tree, the Pillar of Eden also called Beth Milo.
One could discuss this in volumes but the etymology explains quite a lot:
"The root מלל (malal) relates to the cycle of harvest, storage and redistribution. Various derivative forms emphasize the various stages: the severing of something from its natural origin, or its subsequent storage in dedicated facilities, or the redistribution or overflowing from those facilities.
Verb מלל (malal) may be used to mean to utter or say (and the speaking of the mouth equals the overflowing of the heart). Noun מלה (milla') describes an uttering. Noun מלילה (melila) describes an ear of wheat.
This verb may also emphasize the languishing and withering of whatever was cut off, in which case it has a more common by-form, namely אמל ('amal). Adjectives אמלל ('amelal) and אמלל ('umlal) both mean feeble.
This verb may also be used to mean to circumcise, in which case it has a more common by-form, namely מול (mul). This latter verb comes with a second by-form, namely מהל (mahal), which actually mostly means to weaken.
The verb מלא (male') means to be full, speaking mostly of a storage facility that's been filled with whatever was extracted from the land that produced it. It may also describe a river that's overflowing, or a person who acts from the contents of his heart. Nouns מלא (male') and מלאה (mele'a) mean fullness.
Nouns מלאה (millu'a) and מלאת (mille't) denote the filling of gold with jewels and nouns מלא (millu') and מלוא (millu') describe a setting or installing of monumental stones or the ordination of priests."
One cannot attain to the Crown of the Tree as the lexicon says without the teacher. This is also how one also attains to polish and maintains one's connection to the people of Israel.
The Values in Gematria are:
v. 1: Abimelek son of Jerub-Baal went to his mother’s brothers in Shechem and said to them and to all his mother’s clan. To obtain polish one must turn to one's powers of information synthesis and analysis, AKA Chabad, the "mother's clan." Chabad is learned from the teacher in the synagogue.
The Value in Gematria is 4719, דז‎א‎ט, dzat, "this one." = do not learn separately. All of the attributes of the Jew named in the Tanakh which are the same as the Attributes of the God Yah are to be wielded seamlessly, on the fly as circumstances require by all Jews all of the time.
There can't be debates over the Mishpatim and their proper execution or Judaism collapses.
v. 2: Which is better? All or one? The Value in Gematria is 11276, יאבזו‎‎‎, yabtez, "Yah on a tray; the object of desire will spoil you."
Jews love the idea of being spoiled by God. Just not while the rest of the entire world is going to hell. So while Jews take it upon themselves to study the Torah and maintain the traditions, they are not victorious until the rest of the world assents to work at publishing the peace, being content, doing what has to be done to ensure the entire world, including wildlife is free from corruption.
This is echoed in verse 3:
v. 3: When the brothers repeated all this to the citizens of Shechem, they were inclined to follow Abimelek, for they said, “He is related to us.” The Value in Gematria is 7644, ז‎ו‎דד, zod zudad, "a solitary package."
What's a package?
Tumblr media
A package is a shekel, consisting of what God gave us at birth and what we add through study of the Torah in order to obtain our souls. All of us are related once we learn to properly assimilate reality and view others as deserving of freedom, respect, happiness, and their ful potential as we are. Otherwise we are too different to coexist successfully as we are finding out.
v. 4: They gave him seventy shekels[a] of silver from the temple of Baal-Berith, and Abimelek used it to hire reckless scoundrels, who became his followers. We all believe in God in some way. Belief is not enough. Only sentience will do. Sentience is transmitted, and requires marketing of the package to persons who are willing to do more than just believe in God. Persons who do not willingly submit but are rebellious and willful instead are called reckless scoundrels.
The Value in Gematria is 8589, חהחט‎‎, hahat, "the one." There is really only one way to believe in God and that is to use the intellect. This is the Hindu approach- if you can't see it, it's not there. If there is evidence of something that is hidden, that evidence can be found through inquiry. If inquiry fails, so should one's subscription to the delusion.
Scoundrels will just go ahead and follow their delusions without engaging their intellect. Judaism annihilates the delusion while emphasizing all that we see and fantasize about can be quite sumptuous if one's pursuit is performed in an ethical manner.
v. 5: He went to his father’s home in Ophrah and on one stone murdered his seventy brothers, the sons of Jerub-Baal. But Jotham, the youngest son of Jerub-Baal, escaped by hiding. 
Ophrah "to notice and draw near to all that God does." With one glance, Abimelek murdered the god of promises and his followers all but one, Jotham, "integrity" which escaped by hiding.
The verb תמם (tamam) means to be complete, finished, ethically sound or upright. Nouns תם (tom) and תמה (tumma) mean integrity or completeness. Adjective תם (tam) means complete or perfect, sound or wholesome, or morally integer (Job 1:8). Adjective תמים (tamim) means complete or whole, or sound or having integrity. Noun מתם (metom) means entirety or soundness.
Integrity that is hidden naturally must be found, it must be seen and noticed. The angels are telling us, not only for our own good and happiness but to reach Ha Shem on Horeb and be liked by God, one must understand how to believe and how to discern the echoes of reality within one's beliefs.
Next: The actual song.

[6] - different lives, different perspectives
Tumblr media
table of contents
-> scaramouche x fem!reader | gang!au
-> warnings: descriptive violence scenes, blood, cursing, mental breakdowns
a/n: this is so short i’m sorry omg i’m in mobile too i promise i’ll do a read more tomorrow have a nice day or night whichever
Tumblr media
The second those words left Scaramouche’s mouth, his hand was on his gun and the pantry door was being swung open. You didn’t have time to regain your bearings or think of an escape plan, for your mind immediately shut off the second you left the safety of the closet. Scaramouche held your wrist and stood by the kitchen doorway, away from the prying eyes of the agents that raided the living room.
You saw the glint of a gun as Scaramouche pulled it out of his holster and you silently wished he would trip again so you could take it and run. Alas, you believed he’d learned his lesson and would be much more cautious, so you settled on the frying pan that held your pancakes earlier. It was heavy in your hands, but the adrenaline that rushed through your veins made it the last thing you thought about.
Scaramouche lifted his hand, three fingers raised. He put one down. Then another. Then another.
With that, he barged into the living room, quickly firing rounds into the agents as if they were nothing but targets to practice on. They were caught off guard, scrambling to pull their own triggers. They weren’t quick enough.
You followed behind the Fatui leader, frying pan held tightly in your hand. Most of the agents were down at this point- having been disarmed and probably killed by your new colleague. Bending down, you picked up one of the guns from the agent’s limp fingers and stuffed it in your pocket. It would be of good use in the future.
“Why did Baal send you?”
Scaramouche’s voice cut through the scarily silent air, dripping with poison. He had a living agent by his collar, pressed against the wall. The gun was aimed at his temple.
“You will know soon enough.”
A swift kick to the stomach caused the agent to cough, blood beginning to seep out of the corner of his mouth. “Tell me now.”
“The Raiden Shogun… will have her eternity…”
The words were short-lived as Scaramouche’s lithe fingers pulled the trigger. You flinched as the agent seemed to splatter himself against the wall- one of the only spots that was untainted by the previous massacre.
“We need to leave. Grab Dottore’s computer and I’ll get stuff from upstairs. Meet in the van, quick.”
Scaramouche turned his back to you, yet you didn’t move. Your eyes were glued on the blood spatter, still trailing down the walls in a path that resembled a maze.
A maze, similar to what your life is right now. Around every twist and turn is a new danger- a new thing to survive- and the end doesn’t seem to be anywhere. How did you even enter the maze in the first place? How would you get out?
A hand on your shoulder startled you. “Uh, are you alright?”
“He had a life.”
“So do we, Y/N. When you get involved here, it’s kill or be killed.” Scaramouche’s hand squeezed your shoulder in a gesture that you hoped was reassurance, and not just a way to hurry you up. You assumed it was the latter.
I don’t want to be involved.
<><><><>
The ride was silent.
You refused to talk to Scaramouche, tears silently rolling down your cheeks as the scene from earlier replayed in your mind. Sure, you had been shot at before in the cafe, but you didn’t see anyone die. You saw blood when you accidentally hurt Scaramouche, but not that much.
Dottore’s computer sat in your lap. Your fingers were nearly white from your grip. You couldn’t bring yourself to let go of it. It seemed to be the only thing grounding you to reality. The only thing reminding you that this is real and not just some sick, twisted dream.
You had half a mind to destroy it.
To smash the piece of technology to bits and fruitlessly try to remove yourself from any kind of database that these people- these monsters- had on you.
Another tear rolled down your cheek. You sniffed.
“Are you still upset?”
At your silence, Scaramouche sighed. It was annoyed sigh- you knew because he never had any emotion other than that. Quickly, he jerked the van to the right down an old road, full of houses that had definitely been built before the town sprung up around it.
You eyed the houses, wondering where he was taking you. You wouldn’t be surprised if he was going to kill you and drop you body down in the woods. Honestly, at this point you might prefer that option-
“Look at that house on the right. The one with the red roof.” You followed his directions. “That was my old house. I lived there with my parents- just the three of us. We were happy. Really happy.”
You looked at the man beside you, but he wasn’t looking back at you. Instead, he held his gaze steady on the house. His eyes had darkened, holding a somber look to them.
“What happened?”
“Baal.”

The Truth Behind St. Valentine’s Day Long but worth the read. February 14, 2021 St. Valentine’s Day is the world’s “holiday of love.” Since the Bible states that God is love (I John 4:8, 16), does He approve of the celebration of this day? Does He want His people—true Christians—partaking of the candy and cards, or any customs associated with this day?
When God says He wants you to live life abundantly (John 10:10), does that include celebrating a festive, seemingly harmless holiday like Valentine’s Day? The God who gives us everything—life, food, drink, the ability to think for ourselves, etc.—surely approves of St. Valentine’s Day, the holiday for lovers to exchange gifts—right?
Do not be so certain. Do not assume anything. Do not even take this article’s word for it. Go to history books and encyclopedias. Go to the Bible. Then you will know the real truth behind St. Valentine’s Day. And you will know what God expects you to do about it!
Valentine’s Past Like Christmas, Easter, Halloween, New Year’s and other holidays of this world, St. Valentine’s Day is another attempt to “whitewash” perverted customs and observances of pagan gods and idols by “Christianizing” them.
As innocent and harmless as St. Valentine’s Day may appear, its traditions and customs originate from two of the most sexually perverted pagan festivals of ancient history: Lupercalia and the feast day of Juno Februata.
Celebrated on February 15, Lupercalia (known as the “festival of sexual license”) was held by the ancient Romans in honor of Lupercus, god of fertility and husbandry, protector of herds and crops, and a mighty hunter—especially of wolves. The Romans believed that Lupercus would protect Rome from roving bands of wolves, which devoured livestock and people.
Assisted by Vestal Virgins, the Luperci (male priests) conducted purification rites by sacrificing goats and a dog in the Lupercal cave on Palatine Hill, where the Romans believed the twins Romulus and Remus had been sheltered and nursed by a she-wolf before they eventually founded Rome. Clothed in loincloths made from sacrificed goats and smeared in their blood, the Luperci would run about Rome, striking women with februa, thongs made from skins of the sacrificed goats. The Luperci believed that the floggings purified women and guaranteed their fertility and ease of childbirth. February derives from februa or “means of purification.”
To the Romans, February was also sacred to Juno Februata, the goddess of febris (“fever”) of love, and of women and marriage. On February 14, billets (small pieces of paper, each of which had the name of a teen-aged girl written on it) were put into a container. Teen-aged boys would then choose one billet at random. The boy and the girl whose name was drawn would become a “couple,” joining in erotic games at feasts and parties celebrated throughout Rome. After the festival, they would remain sexual partners for the rest of the year. This custom was observed in the Roman Empire for centuries.
Whitewashing Perversion In A.D. 494, Pope Gelasius renamed the festival of Juno Februata as the “Feast of the Purification of the Virgin Mary.” The date of its observance was later changed from February 14 to February 2, then changed back to the 14. It is also known as Candlemas, the Presentation of the Lord, the Purification of the Blessed Virgin and the Feast of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple.
After Constantine had made the Roman church’s brand of Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire (A.D. 325), church leaders wanted to do away with the pagan festivals of the people. Lupercalia was high on their list. But the Roman citizens thought otherwise.
It was not until A.D. 496 that the church at Rome was able to do anything about Lupercalia. Powerless to get rid of it, Pope Gelasius instead changed it from February 15 to the 14th and called it St. Valentine’s Day. It was named after one of that church’s saints, who, in A.D. 270, was executed by the emperor for his beliefs.
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, “At least three different Saint Valentines, all of them martyrs, are mentioned in early martyrologies under the date of 14 February. One is described as a priest at Rome, another as bishop of Interamna (modern Terni), and these two seem both to have suffered in the second half of the third century and to have been buried on the Flaminian Way, but at different distances from the city…Of the third Saint Valentine, who suffered in Africa with a number of companions, nothing is further known.” Several biographies of different men named Valentine were merged into one “official” St. Valentine.
The church whitewashed Lupercalia even further. Instead of putting the names of girls into a box, the names of “saints” were drawn by both boys and girls. It was then each person’s duty to emulate the life of the saint whose name he or she had drawn. This was Rome’s vain attempt to “whitewash” a pagan observance by “Christianizing” it, which God has not given man the power or authority to do. Though the church at Rome had banned the sexual lottery, young men still practiced a much toned-down version, sending women whom they desired handwritten romantic messages containing St. Valentine’s name. Over the centuries, St. Valentine’s Day cards became popular, especially by the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. These cards were painted with pictures of Cupid and hearts, and meticulously decorated with lace, silk or flowers.
First Man Called Valentine But who was the original Valentine? What does the name Valentine mean? Valentine comes from the Latin Valentinus, which derives from valens—“to be strong, powerful, mighty.”
The Bible describes a man with a similar title: “And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD” (Gen. 10:8-9). He was said to have hunted with bow and arrow.
As mentioned, the Romans celebrated Lupercalia to honor the hunter god Lupercus. To the Greeks, from whom the Romans had copied most of their mythology, Lupercus was known as Pan, the god of light. The Phoenicians worshipped the same deity as Baal, the sun god. Baal was one of many names or titles for Nimrod, a mighty hunter, especially of wolves. He was also the founder and first lord of Babel (Gen. 10:10-12). Defying God, Nimrod was the originator of the Babylonian Mystery Religion, whose mythologies have been copied by the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans and a multitude of other ancient peoples.
Under different names or titles—Pan, Lupercus, Saturn, Osiris—Nimrod is the strong man and hunter-warrior god of the ancients.
But what does the heart symbol have to do with a day honoring Nimrod/Valentine?
The title Baal means “lord” or “master,” and is mentioned throughout the Bible as the god of pagans. God warned His people not to worship or even tolerate the ways of Baal (Nimrod). In ancient Chaldean (the language of the Babylonians), bal, which is similar to Baal, meant, “heart.” This is where the Valentine heart symbol originated.
Now notice the name Cupid. It comes from the Latin verb cupere, meaning “to desire.” Cupid was the son of Venus, Roman goddess of beauty and love. Also known as Eros in ancient Greece, he was the son of Aphrodite. According to myth, he was responsible for impregnating numerous goddesses and mortals. Cupid was a child-like archer (remember, Nimrod was a skilled archer). Mythology describes Cupid as having both a cruel and happy personality. He would use his invisible arrows, tipped with gold, to strike unsuspecting men and women, causing them to fall madly in love. He did not do this for their benefit, but to drive them crazy with intense passion, to make their lives miserable, and to laugh at the results. Many of the gods of the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Assyrians and others were modeled after one man—Nimrod.
But what does this have to do with us today? Why should we be concerned with what happened in the past?
What God Thinks Read what God commands His people concerning pagan customs and traditions: “Learn not the way of the heathen…For the customs of the people are vain” (Jer. 10:2-3). Also notice Christ’s words in Matthew 15:9: “…in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”
Throughout the Bible, God describes “heathens” as those who worship things that He had created (animals, the sun, the moon, stars, trees, etc.), or man-made idols, or anything but the one true God. He calls such people and their practices pagan. True Christians understand that God hates any customs, practices and traditions that are rooted in paganism.
But just how serious is God about paganism?
When He rescued the twelve tribes of Israel from brutal slavery and led them out of Egypt, He commanded them, “After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein you dwelt, shall you not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, shall you not do: neither shall you walk in their ordinances” (Lev. 18:3). God demanded the Israelites not to defile themselves with the pagan practices and customs of surrounding nations (vs. 24-29). “Therefore shall you keep Mine ordinance, that you commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that you defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God” (vs. 30).
God cursed Egypt—a nation of nature-worshiper—with ten plagues and freed Israel from slavery. He rescued Israel from Pharaoh’s army by parting the Red Sea and leading His people to safety. He fed the Israelites manna—special bread made by God—from heaven. He protected them from battle-tested Gentile armies, delivered them into the Promised Land and drove out their enemies.
How did Israel treat God in return? “Our fathers understood not Your wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of Your mercies; but provoked Him at the sea, even at the Red Sea…They soon forgot His works; they waited not for His counsel: But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert…They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped the molten image. Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eats grass. They forgot God their Savior, which had done great things in Egypt; wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red Sea…they despised the pleasant land, they believed not His word: But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD …They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead. Thus they provoked Him to anger with their intentions” (Psa. 106:7, 13-14, 19-22, 24-25, 28-29).
God explicitly commanded Israel to cast out and utterly destroy all nations that occupied the Promised Land (Canaan). Above all, His people were not to make political alliances with them or marry into their families (Deut. 7:1-3, 5, 16). “For they will turn away your sons from following Me, that they may serve other gods” (vs. 4).
But the Israelites thought they knew better than God. They decided to do things their own way. “They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them: But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works. And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them. Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils [demons], and shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions” (Psa. 106:34-39).
To wake them up and get them back on track as the model nation He had originally intended, God gave Israel over to their enemies. Israel repented and cried out to God. God rescued them. With their bellies full and lives protected, the Israelites went back to pursuing other gods. God punished Israel again. Israel repented and cried out to God.
And so went the deliverance-idolatry-punishment-repentance cycle (vs. 40-46), until finally, God had no other choice but to divorce unfaithful Israel (Jer. 3:6-11).
He used the Assyrians, one of the most brutal warrior nations in history, to invade, conquer, enslave and relocate the entire northern kingdom of Israel (II Kings 17). Having “disappeared” from history, the modern-day descendants of those ten “lost” tribes are unaware of their true identity even to this day.
Later, God sent the southern kingdom of Judah (mainly the tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi) into Babylonian exile (II Kings 24 and 25). Because they kept (at least physically) the true Sabbath, which is a special sign that identifies the one true God and His people (Ex. 31:12-18), the Jews were able to retain their true identity.
The Israelites were severely punished because they lusted after pagan customs, rituals, traditions and practices. As you can see, God does not take paganism lightly.
Why Paganism Is Wrong Just why does God hate anything that resembles pagan customs? Is it possible to “whitewash” or “Christianize” pagan practices and make them clean? Is it okay to practice pagan customs as long as you “worship God”?
Notice what God says in Leviticus chapter 18. After rescuing Israel from slavery, God warned them not to practice the customs they had picked up in Egypt, or learn the ways, customs and traditions of the Gentile nations that they would encounter in the Promised Land (vs. 1-3). Instead, God commanded Israel to follow His ways (vs. 4-5).
God then describes the pagan ways of these ungodly nations in great detail. In verses 7-20, He condemns all kinds of heterosexual sex relations that fall outside the holy boundaries of marriage—incest, fornication, adultery, etc. In verses 22-23, God condemns homosexuality and bestiality. Together, these sins break down and destroy the family unit that God had so lovingly created and instituted.
Notice what God links to these perversions: “And you shall not let any of your seed [children] pass through the fire to Molech, neither shall you profane the name of your God: I am the LORD” (vs. 21). God ties in the perverse sexual practices of ungodly, pagan nations with human sacrifices—parents offering the lives of their children to pagan gods!
The Bible shows that Israel not only disobeyed God and wholeheartedly embraced the sexual immorality of the Gentiles, they even went a step further.
“And they have turned unto Me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction. But they set their abominations in the house [the temple at Jerusalem], which is called by My name, to defile it. And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into My mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin” (Jer. 32:33-35). (To learn more about these child sacrifices to Molech, download from our website our sermon Santa Claus is Molech and our booklets The True Origin of Christmas and The True Origin of Easter.)
Imagine. Israel committed a sin so vile, so disgusting, that it even shocked God! But that was then. What about today? Surely, parents do not sacrifice their children to pagan gods today—or do they?
Do not be so certain. Perhaps their lives are not being sacrificed—but what about their innocence?
Parents today expect their little ones to “fall in love” and have boyfriends and girlfriends. They think it is “cute” when little boys and girls hold hands and act like a couple, sneaking a kiss or two when no one is watching. Some parents get worried when their kids do not show romantic interest in the opposite sex. They constantly ask them, “Do you have a boyfriend yet?” or “Who’s your girlfriend?”
Yet these same parents are surprised when their teen-aged “little girl” gets pregnant. Or catches a sexually transmitted disease. Or gets an abortion behind their back.
St. Valentine’s Day is just one of many tools the “god of this world” (II Cor. 4:4) uses to get parents to sacrifice the innocence of their children.
When little boys and girls draw each other’s names in a lottery and send Valentine cards and gifts to each other, declaring their “love,” they are learning the first stages of intimate relations that the Creator God designed specifically for emotionally mature adults. Instead of embracing the carefree innocence of youth, growing up without the headaches and heartaches of adulthood (finding a job, paying bills, marriage, raising a family, etc.), children today are taught to lust after each other. They are caught up in a daily drama of “If-you-loved-me-you’d-sleep-with-me; I’m-pregnant; It’s-not-mine, she-had-an-abortion.” By the time they reach adulthood, virtually every shred of innocence, sincerity and moral decency has been stripped from them. Emotionally drained, they have world-weary, “been there, done that” attitudes. And their lives are just beginning.
This is why we live in a world where a teen-aged virgin is a rare find. Where what used to be called “shacking up” and “living in sin” is now simply “living together.” Where sex is nothing more than meaningless physical recreation—no emotional attachments, no cares, no concerns. Where people change sex partners as conveniently as they change clothes. Where unmarried twenty- or thirty-something’s have had at least five sexual partners—and that is considered a low number, especially in the United States. Where men are not referred to as “my husband,” or “my fiancé,” but as “my second baby’s father.”
How pathetic!
Satan has deceived the whole world (Rev. 12:9) in multiple ways—especially when it comes to intimate relationships. St. Valentine’s Day is just one of his tools for deception. (To learn more about this great deceiver, read Who Is the Devil?)
“Come Out of Her, My People” Concerning the near future, when man’s Satan-influenced world is about to collapse, God declares, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils [demons], and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed [increased] rich through the abundance of her delicacies” (Rev. 18:2-3).
Concerning this pagan, satanic system, God commands true Christians,“Come out of her, My people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues” (vs. 4).
St. Valentine’s Day originates from the ancient paganism of this Satan-influenced world. It is designed to deceive mankind by appealing to fleshly, carnal desires—or, as the Bible calls them, the works of the flesh.
“Now the works of the flesh are manifest [made obvious], which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry…drunkenness, revellings, and such like” (Gal. 5:19-21). Do any of these sound like Lupercalia to you?
Ultimately, “they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” A true Christian is focused on God’s soon-coming kingdom (Matt. 6:33) and the world to come—not on the fleshly cravings of this world. A true Christian must strive to “put off the old man” and actively imitate the perfect, righteous example of Jesus Christ. A Christian knows that he must actively come out of this world, out of its pagan-infested customs, practices and traditions.
Christians do not celebrate St. Valentine’s Day!
Have a blessed day and weekend. May Yeshua the Messiah bless you, Love, Debbie

Beresheet Spacecraft
Beresheet Spacecraft to the Moon. Beresheet means “In the Beginning…”; the Moon is the Chaldean god Sin.
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth”In Hebrew Beyt Rosh Aleph Shin Yod Tav Rabbis don’t believe Jesus is Alpha and Omega “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last” Rev 22:13 because Jesus warned “But be not ye called Rabbi” Mat 23:8 Rabbi means Master; the title of Chaldean-Sabian-Mandaean Priests was/is “Rba”. Jewish? Not on your eternal life.
Israel’s 1st Lunar Lander Space IL Beresheet to launch on Feb 21 and land on April 11 carrying a Time Capsule of Israeli cultural artifacts to the Sea of Serenity on the Moon.
The bible declares the Ending from the Beginning; Hebrew is read Right to Left. Let’s look at it.
Beit meaning House or Tent, represents the number 2, and is shaped as a Floor Plan; Beit Shamash “House of Shamash” is the House of the Assyrian Sun God “Shamash” called Project 911 on Site 911, a radiation hardened bunker with Israeli Scribe written Mezuzah, rejecting Jesus as Master of the House “Shiloh” (Gen 49:10) over every door, ready for the arrival of Lucifer/Satan aka Apollyon “Destroyer” at Rev 9:11; 5th Trumpet; 1st Woe !
Rosh means Head, King or Prince; scripture says Lucifer is the Prince of the World; Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lords. Reysh (200) illustrates the sufficiency of God and insufficiency of man; Jesus is the sinless Cornerstone and Head of the New Covenant; in Israel, the Cornerstone will be purified by the Kohannim with ashes of a sacrificed Red Heifer, on 2 Nisan. In 2019 1 Nisan is April 6 “Tartan Day”, the day celebrating Assyrian captivity and replacement of the northern tribes of Israel under Sargon II and his military commander Tartan with Babylonians, Medeans, Canaanites (2 Ki 17:30).
Aleph (1) is symbolized by an Ox, symbolizing the ONE or Strong Leader El or plural Elohim, the Canaanite Creator El is equivalent with Saturn, aka Assyrian Nisroch (2 Ki 19:37; Is 37:38). Together, Beit Rosh Aleph means the Creator/King of the Tent/House.
Shin (300) means Nail/Crush/Destroy; a Divinely appointed blood sacrifice necessary for Salvation. Talmudic Rabbis open Synagogues with the Sign of Shin celebrating the Nails used to fasten God to the Tree. Jesus offered Himself in accordance with Jewish Law in Deut 21:23 but was rejected and nailed to a Tree. Purim (Mar 20-21, 2019) means “Crush/Destroy; Bring to Naught”; Pur means “Lot”; the casting of Lots for the Assyrian Marduk “Calf of the Sun god Shamash”. On the Spring Equinox, the Sun contacts the altar on the Brass Line (Rose Line) at St Sulpice Cathedral in Paris and the Serpent descends the 91 (1…13=91; 13 the number associated with Rebellion against God seen in Rev 13 and Gen 13:13 “Sins of Sodom”) steps of the El Castillo Pyramid in Mexico; Purim is a Holy Day not of God, but derived from one of 2 books in scripture God is not mentioned “Esther”. Resh Aleph Sheen combines to mean the Prince leaves the Temp to Crush or Destroy; sounds a bit like Rev 9:11 as well as the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ.
Yod or Yot (10) means End of the Age and New Beginning; 10 means Ordinal Perfection of 1 “ONE” + 0, used as a place holder rather than a number for Time. Saturn is Chronos “Time”; Jesus came and fulfilled every Jot and Tittle of the Law (Mat 5:18) Thus the End of the Age, New Beginning at an appointed Time. Jesus returns a 2nd time when Creation is 6000 years old (2 Pet 3:8) to Destroy; Satan is cast to Earth at Rev 9:11 541 days before that as Apyollon/Abaddan “Destroyer” to incarnate a man called Antichrist who controls Earth during the 1260 day Great Tribulation. Recall the last word of God’s first sentence “Earth”; Earth Dweller first used in Rev 13:8 refers to those who reject the New Covenant.
Tav or Tau (400) is shaped as a Cross; it means End of the Covenant. Jesus was rejected and nailed to a Tree amid 2 Thieves which formed the 7 Branch Candlestick of the Old Covenant, the 7th Covenant between God and Man. The 7 Branch Candlestick, constructed by Moses has been replaced by the Hanukkah Menorah with Shamash at the center to replace Jesus. This is a symbolic rejection of the New Covenant; the 8th and final Covenant between God and Man ends with acceptance of the Mark of the Beast. The Cross is not what you think it is; my article Cross goes into more detail; suffice to say, the Tree of Life (Jesus Christ) is replaced by the Serpent/Devil/Satan in the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
Beit Rosh Aleph Shin Yot Tav add to 931, in 931BC Israel (Ones who wrestle with God) was Divided; the same condition applies today. The Question is: Are you a Zionist? Is Israel God’s gathering of Jacob’s 12 sons? Is the Six Pointed Star, a symbol of God? If the answer is Yes, Hell for eternity awaits. Amos 5:2 “The virgin of Israel has fallen, she shall no more rise” Amos 5:26 illustrates, the Six Pointed Star aka Chaldean STUR is the symbol of El, Molech, Chiun (Kewan=Saturn) seen in BabEl “Gate of El/Saturn” is BabIlu “Gate of Allah” is BabylON “Gate of the Sun” is the Highway to Hell established at the Beginning and opened at the End. The Arab moon God is Sin aka Allah. Sea of Serenity (Serenus a title used for Roman Emperors and Popes) means Sea of the King; Beast rising from the Sea may ring a Baal. Israel hopes the mission causes an “Apollo Effect”; I’m sure it will. TimesUp folks! Israel’s Bereshit leads to Hell; Jesus’ Beginning and End leads to Heaven.
Feb 18
Space Force Col Buzz Aldrin and Col Terry Virts support the idea yet Virts admits NASA Astronauts have never traveled above Low Earth Orbit due to the radiation in the Van Allen Belts; what say you Buzz? AF Chief of Staff, Crypto fake Jew Gen David Goldfein in command; his brother Gen Stephen Goldfein was forced to retire after “Thunder Vision” scandal, steering a $50M Audio-Visual Contract his way while in charge of the USAF Thunderbirds. Elon Musk applauds the creation of Space Force; his Methane (literally Bullshit) Powered BFR (Big F___Rocket) is a One-Way, Bleeding, Stainless Steel Rocket to Mars, straight out of Flash Gordon; his ridiculous Spacesuits, fresh off the set of Ender’s Game. Tired of the Bullshit? http://americanmoon.org/NASA/index.htm
Feb 17
Moscow warns “US is creating a Quasi-State on the West Bank of the Euphrates” Eretz Israel, the land God promised Abraham is from the Nile to the Euphrates including the Western half of Syria and Iraq. This is the goal of Chasidic-Saturnian-Chaldean fake Jews descended from Abram’s nephew Chesed. Keep in mind, Vladimir Putin is controlled by Chabad Lubavitch ie Saturnian/Chaldean/Sabian Crypto Jews just like Donald Trump.
Golden Gate Violence
“Israel is playing with fire…assault on Golden Gate is War on Islam” Mahmoud Habbash, Supreme Shariah Law Judge in Palestine and religious adviser to Palestine President Luciferian Freemason Mahmoud Abbas. Shariah Law Judge Hassan Rouhani is President of Iran; Shariah Law and Noahide Law, enforced by the Sanhedrin and 33 degree Freemason Crypto Jew Benjamin Netanyahu have one very important item in common; Jesus is an Idol whose worship is Blasphemous and must be punished by decapitation. All these men are Sabian Chaldeans, cancers in their respective religions.
Freemason Albert Pike penned a letter to Jesuit Giuseppe Mazzini calling for 3 World Wars; WW3 is Zionism against Islam. The War will lead to the acceptance of the False Messiah who will arrive (wait for it!) through the Golden aka East Gate, Sushan Gate and Gate of Mercy; the same gate Jesus rode through on Palm Sunday in fulfillment of dozens of Old Testament prophecies is the gate Antichrist will come through to sit on Satan’s Seat in the 3rd Temple. Not ready for that? Better get ready.
Why Feb 17? Sabians worship the 17th day of every month, but in particular, the 17th Day of the 2nd Month; which on the Solar Calendar is Feb 17 corresponding to the date the Flood began (Gen 7:11); 7 the number of perfection; 11 the number of Antichrist. Sabians created the Solar (Gregorian) Calendar to match their Feast of Nativity with Christmas.
Valentines Day
Valentine’s Day is Lupercalia “Day of the Wolf”; a great day to hide really big news. Warsaw “Peace and Security” Summit; Israel and 60 Nations aligned against Iran; Israel’s PM Netanyahu openly calls for War with Iran. Zionist Mike Pence accuses Iran of starting a New Holocaust to wipe Israel off the map and presents “Peace Plan” called “Deal of the Century” to Benjamin Netanyahu. Mike Pompeo “Confronting Iran is Key to Middle East Stability”; Iran, China, Venezuela and Russia War? Great idea Mike and just a week before another North Korean Summit.Iran (Aryan=Noble Caste) Ayatollah ali Khomeini and Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu are both Sovereign Luciferian Freemasons. Netanyahu, and Ashkenazi Crypto (Germanic) fake Jew claims Benjamite lineage “Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf…” Gen 49:27 What a coincidence the Warsaw Summit is on Lupercalia “Day of the Wolf” or NOT! “For when they shall say, peace and security; then shall sudden destruction come upon them, as the pains upon her that is with child, and they shall not escape” 1 Thess 5:3
DACA Amnesty DACA (Deferred Action on Child Arrivals) and DREAM (Development, Relief, Education for Alien Minors) sneak into Law in the 1000+ page Secret Budget Bill released by Congress and signed into Law by the President on Valentine’s Day, 1 day before 2nd Gov’t Shutdown.
Presidential Emergency Declaration $1.3B funding for 55 miles of Border Wall; US-Mexico border is 2000 miles long. Trump will build the Wall with Taxpayer Debt; in 1958 Snake Oil Salesman Walter Trump called for a Wall in the series Trackdown episode “End of the World”; pretty coincidental eh?DACA Amnesty renders the border Wall useless to stop immigrants entering the US; US Citizens wanting to leave the US however, will need to pay their fair share of the National Debt; an impossibility for all but the financial Elite.
Illegal immigrant Melania Trump (NY modeling on Tourist Visa; “Einstein Visa” awarded for obtaining 6 year Architecture and Design Degree from non-existent University of Slovenia in 1 semester) visited an immigrant camp wearing an I really don’t care do you? jacket Think Donald is against illegal immigration? Guess again. Like the 1000+ page Patriot Act signed onto law immediately after 9/11/2001 or the 1000+ page Obama Care aka Universal Health Care Act signed into law at 10:22PM (3:22UTC) on Sunday 3/22/10 (Society 322 is the Teutonic Brotherhood of Death); no members of Congress or the public will have a chance to read, much less debate the Unconstitutional Law.
DACA DREAMers represent roughly 3 Million people + 2 Parents=9 Million + 6.5 average additional “Chain Migrants” and an additional 20% economic burden will certainly collapse the US economy. Pre-planned? “Nothing in politics happens by chance; if it happens you can bet it was planned” FDR MEChA (Mestizo Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan), LaRaza Unida and Voz de Aztlan all have the goal of restoring Aztlan, the land comprised of 1/2 California, Arizona, New Mexico, West Texas taken from Mexico; Aztlan and Aztec have the same meaning; decapitation and cutting out hearts (Heart means Baal) was designed to capture the Soul and Spirit of the deceased; decapitation is required under Shariah and Noahide Laws for followers of Jesus Christ.
Parkland HS Shooting Hoax Anniversary and Antonin Scalia Heart Attack Hoax Valentines Day Article and False Flag Article cover these.
William Barr confirmed Attorney General Skull & Bones, 33 degree Luciferian Freemason, Bohemian Grove Satanist GHW “Magog” Bush’ CIA Analyst and AG returns. If you liked Iran-Contra, Gulf Wars, Pan Am 103, $1.5 Savings and Loan Crisis (Neil Bush’ Siverado Savings ripped off $2B), you’ll love him http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article3330.htm
Orion “Light of Heaven” Nebula M-42 (Orion’s Sword/Scabbard) belched out a massive Flare; M-42 is known as the place where “Stars are Born”, no not Lady Gaga or Barbra Steisand, but the Chaldean Star of Molech, El, Ilu (Allah), Marduk seen in the word BabEl. In Sumerian ie Chaldean religion/mythology, Orion is the “True Shepherd of Anu”; the “Armed King”, symbolized by the North Ecliptic Axis or World Pillar (Arab Qutb) encircled by Draco (Dragon). Anu is the Supreme God of Mesopotamia seen in the Irish Tuatha de Danu (Offspring of Anu) or Zechariah Sitchin Bullshit “Anunnaki” or Planet X nonsense; Anu is just another name of Zeus, Jupiter, Horus or Allah. Anu was also associated with Amurru, the source name of America (Amurucu) is the Shepherd and Creator god of the Amorites; Amor=Love; Feel the Love yet? We will. Amorites codified their Laws under Amraphel (Gen 14:1 aka Hammurabi) who received them from Shamash, the Babylonian sun god worshipped in Israel today as the center candle on the Hanukkah Menorah and at Site 911 “Beit Shamash”, a radiation hardened, Jesus rejecting bunker ready for his arrival on Earth at Rev 9:11. Amorites (Canaanites) derived their Laws “Code of Hammurabi” from earlier laws of “Lipit-Ishtar” and “Naram-Sin” (Sin=Ilu=Allah). The Code of Hammurabi is “Vengeance”. Orion was known to the Greeks as Ares, the UNKNOWN GOD of War, ignorantly worshipped at the Areopagus (Mars’ Hill) in Athens (Acts 17:22-24). “Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in Temples made with hands” (Acts 7:48; 17:24) The “Deal of the Century” will outline the building of the 3rd Temple, made with hands, full of illegitimate Samaritan Priests, a man-made altar and the Throne of Pergamon (moved from Berlin at the close of WWIII, currently in Moscow for WWIII) “Satan’s Seat”. Ares is Nergal, the Rooster; you may recall Trump lighting a Rooster Candle during Diwali (New Light); Nowruz “New Light” is the Iranian (Aryan=Noble Caste) Rooster/Cock and what a coincidence! In 2019 Nowruz (Mar 20) aligns with Purim; Pur=Lot, Purim means “Cast Lots for Marduk”. The Satanic plan is coming along nicely eh? Now go get JESUS in your life!
Ben Franklin a Child Sacrificing, Rosicrucian 33 degree Luciferian Freemason, member of Sir Francis Dashwood’s “Hell Fire Society” (Think Eyes Wide Shut) said “Democracy is 2 Wolves and a Lamb making dinner plans”; what better day than Lupercalia “Day of the Wolf”?

Venezuela Coup The US and Israel are leading a pre-planned Coup in Venezuela over control of Gold and Black Gold “Oil” and the Coup is spilling over to 60 nations in the Organization of American States. The same exact playbook was used in Libya, Iraq and Iran (Operation Ajax) when those countries nationalized assets. Venezuela is derived from Venice; Oil is Black Gold. Venetian Black Nobility Pope Leo X declared the Gnostic doctrine “Indestructibility of the Soul” Catholic Dogma at the 5th Lateran Council in 1517 aka Year one of the 10 Jubilee plan to present Antichrist. The new movie The Prodigy deals with Gnostic doctrine of Indestructibility of the Soul; It’s a Lie. Lateran means Hidden Frogs, the 3 unclean spirits of Satan, Antichrist and False Prophet; the Jesuit (Militia of Zeus/Marduk) HQ is The Arch-basilica of St John Lateran aka Basilica Nova.
US takes control of Venezuela Gold and Oil assets; Britain rejects Venezuela Gold withdrawal requests; acts of War. Maduro warns US of a Vietnam War #2 In charge of the Coup is CFR traitor Elliot Abrams architect of Iran-Contra, El Salvadoran “Death Squads”, Operation Condor (Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina Coups and Death Squads led by Cardinal Bergoglio aka Pope Francis; Condor and Eagle Prophecy spells the playbook out https://blog.pachamama.org/the-eagle-and-the-condor-prophecy; Former Argentine president, Nestor Kirchner (colon cancer) 2) Brazil’s president Dilma Rousseff (lymphoma cancer), her predecessor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (throat cancer), 4) Chavez (cancer), 5) Bolivian president, Evo Morales (nasal cancer) 7) Paraguayan president Fernando Lugo (lymphoma cancer), PNAC (1997 Project for a New American Century called for 9/11/2001 and wars in Syria, Libya, Iraq, Sudan, Iran), South American “Dirty Wars” (financed by CIA asset Columbian Drug Lord Pablo Escobar) Elliot Abrams is a convicted War Criminal (Pardoned by GHW Bush) Crypto fake Jew https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=358&v=O_KFCXCccjM
US trained Zionist Juan Guiado now in charge of Venezuela Assets according to Zionist Trump adviser John Bolton. China’s PetroChina out. Russia’s Rosnef out. War with Venezuela, China and Russia in False Flag.
Zionist John Bolton meets Citgo Petroleum execs; US Government protecting Corporate Assets? Maduro claims control of Citgo through PDVSA Venezuela’s Nationalized Oil consortium and ends $US Petro-Dollar. Same playbook used in Libya to oust Muammar Qadaffi, who developed the GMMR (Great Man-made River) returning North Africa to an Oasis and establishing the African Dinar to replace the $US.
Venezuela sitting on the world’s 2nd largest Gold Fields; 32 Gold Fields and 54 Gold precessing plants being built.Venezuela sitting on claimed world’s largest Oil Reserves. I doubt that, the US Gulf of Mexico, ANWR and Bakken formation contain Trillions of Bbls of Oil with pipelines in place but US Citizens will never benefit from it.
US trained opposition candidate Juan Guiado is backed by Israel and plans to move the Israel Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem (Spiritually, Sodom and Egypt Rev 11:8) he attended the CIA/Masonic George Washington University who swore himself in as President on Jan 23 shortly after the Inauguration of Nicholas Maduro. Maduro is backed by the Venezuelan Military and most of its Citizens.
Caracas sits atop the razed city of the Caracas people, conquered by Spanish Conquistadores. The US celebrates Columbus as a hero; Chavez and Maduro regard Columbus Day as “Indigenous Resistance Day” Spain, France, Germany, UK give Maduro an 8 day ultimatum to hold transparent elections. CFR Traitor, Freemason, Zionist (Saturnian Satanist) Crypto fake Jew, Plato’s Sex Club swinger John Bolton Tweets “Violence against US Diplomats or Juan Guiado will be met with significant response”; Russia warns US against meddling. Violence is the plan.
Org of American States was born as a New World Union by 33 degree Luciferian Mason Simon Bolivar and recognizes Guiado as President, declaring President Nicolas Maduro and his administration Illegitimate. 60 nations are members to the OAS Headquartered in the Sovereign territory of Washington DC. OAS was founded 30 April 1948 “Walpurgisnacht”, an occult Holy Day Blood Sacrifice Day leading into Beltane, the highest of Satanic Holy Days; Gnostics celebrate Salugha (Satan) “Prince of Demons”. Through the Venezuelan Refidomsa Oil Refinery and Petrocaribe, Caribbean Island Kleptocrats line their pockets at their people’s expense. Venezuela is the tip of the Titanic Iceberg and Washington DC is at the helm.
Hugo Chavez called Sodomite George Bush Jr “The Devil” in a UN speech as did Iran President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (nee Sabourjian; lead captor in the Iran Hostage Crisis); the CIA poisoned Chavez, his hand picked successor Nicholas Maduro declared all US diplomats Persona non Grata. Zionist Mike Pompeo defiantly tells diplomats to remain and raises the LGBTQ+2 Rainbow Flag at the Embassy in Caracas, vowing to use the US Military; How would this go over in the US?
Zionist tools and CFR (Council on Foreign Relations has the Pale Horse “Death” and Ubiquitous on its cover; CFR Initiates are oath sworn to end National Sovereignty in every Nation) traitors Mike Pence (former CIA Chief) whom Trump put in charge of all Foreign and Domestic Affairs and Mike Pompeo are creating a War over Oil while the . Thesis: Marrano Donald Trump’s (Ashkenazi Drumpf; fake Presbyterian) MAGA is the 5th level Magus V in the Church of Satan. Anti-thesis: Marrano Nancy Pelosi (High Priestess of the Church of Satan in San Francisco; fake Catholic) take the blame for the Government shutdown, using 800K Pawns in a game designed to give Amnesty to DACA (Deferred Action for Child Illegals) immigrants.
Venetian Black Nobility In 1976 Venezuela nationalized the oil industry, placing all Oil assets under control of Petrol de Venezuela; Venezuela ejected international corporations as Iran’s president Mohammad Mossadeq did in Iran before he was replaced in CIA Operation Ajax. Citgo Petroleum is owned by Petrol de Venezuela PDVSA ie Maduro.
Yes We Can means Thank You Satan; Obama gave 2 Yes We Can speeches under the Quadriga of Apollo (Trump’s 66th Floor Penthouse is a shrine to Apollo “Destroyer”) at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin which stands next to the Berlin Museum, home of the fake Throne of Zeus aka Throne of Pergamon (Rev 2) or Satan’s Seat. Zeus aka Jupiter, Horus or Marduk is the “Son of the Sun”. The Assyrian god Marduk is called “Calf of the sun god”; his victorious return celebrated at the New Year Akitu (Barley) Festival on the Assyrian New Year 1 Nisan.
Talmudic Rabbis who teach Jesus, the son of a whore is boiling in Hell in His own excrement, claim 1 Nisan is the Creation of the Universe; the Mormon Church also teaches this lie. The day is also celebrated as the death of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 1 Nisan, 2019 is April 6, 2019 “Tartan Day”, the day celebrating the Assyrian military taking Israel captive.
“There will be signs in the Sun, Moon and Stars” Luke 21:25
The Solar Dynamics Lab captured an unusual Sun Spot which appears as a baby head down ie 2 months from delivery in the womb; this followed the Super-Blood-Wolf Moon Eclipse on the Talmudic Holy Day Tu b’ Shebat celebrating the Tree Jesus was Crucified on and Groves where “Evil is done in sight of the LORD” Marduk returning? What sort of warnings would do it for you?
Yes We Can refers to building the 3rd Temple and installing Satan on the Throne of Pergamon, next to the Abomination of Desolation and enforcing the Mark of the Beast (Luciferian Initiation) on the world. The Language of Yes (French Oui or Old French Oil) is Green Language; Arabs refer to Marduk as al Khidr “Green Man”; Egyptians refer to Osiris (Saturn) as “Green Man”; the Photosynthesis equation Chlorophyll is also “Green Man” aka Pale Horse (Chloro) Death, whose worship brings Hell for eternity (Gen 6:7-8).
The Satanic Stage Show is in it’s 3rd Act “Prestige”; if you can’t see this, ask JESUS for a little help.
Vatican Sex Abuse Summit Feb 21; coincident with the release of “In the closet of the Vatican”, a 570 pg book by French Government adviser Frederic Martel detailing Vatican sex abuse and the claim 80% of Vatican clergy are Sodomite. Revenge for French King Phillip II and Pope Clement V executing the Sodomite Knights Templar. Nice timing! Transexual Weight Lifter Jay Cee Cooper wins US Powerlifting Title. Congratulations! It’s a Theybee; Hospitals using “Unassigned” birth gender for parents who prefer They or Them.

On Aug 1 “Lugnasaid” 2018 the Congolese capital of Benin, suffered an outbreak of its 10th and worst Ebola Epidemic; Hemhorragic Fever disease was created in 1947 at the Rockefeller Foundation Lab in Zika Forest Rhesus Monkeys; Simian Flu was also featured in Rise of the Planet of the Apes. In 2019 Benin has become a test-bed for Experimental Vaccines, now given to 75,000. Why Lughnasaid? Lugh is equivalent with Mercury aka Hermes. Caduceus is the Winged, Serpent wrapped phallus symbolizing Medicine, given by Apollo to Hermes. Apollo is the god of Plagues; the weapon symbolizes both Plague and Healing.
Plague is derived from Pestilentia “Infected, Devastating”; Influenza “Flu” means “Influence of the Stars” A Star is born should ring a Baal; Oscar means “God’s Spear”, in this case the Pestilence Jesus warned of in Mat 24:7 Lugh was the “Master of the Spear”
Feb 9
Welcome to the Hotel California SOUTHCOM was in the midst of a Haitian Relief Drill when Port au Prince was hit with a 7.0 Earthquake; playing over and over on the only radio station was the Eagle’s Song “Welcome to the Hotel California”; the Eagle of Lagash, Assyrian Nisroch (Saturn), Esau are all depicted by the Eagle. Jesus warns “Whersoever the carcase is, there will the Eagles gather together” Mat 24:28; Lk 17:37 The song is about selling one’s Soul; “Checking into the Hotel California”; “Pink Champagne on Ice”refers to Human Body Parts. UN Aid workers exposed to Cholera camped upstream causing a Cholera epidemic; DynCorp followed with teams of doctors aboard “Hospital Ships”, harvesting organs.
“Leave nothing on the table” is Planned Parenthood’s motto; CA trial starts Feb 19. Legalized Abortions up until birth; PP employees given bonuses for Organ Harvesting; StemExpress brokering parts, the most valuable A: Brain, heart, lungs, Liver, Thymus, Thyroid, Spleen, Intestines. B: Kidneys, Adrenal Glands, Ears, Umbiical cord, Plan=centa, Amniotic Fluid C: Maternal, Umbilical blood, Trisomy Blood. DynCorp is not just in Foreign Countries, it’s home to roost. You can check in, but you can never leave!

National Prayer Breakfast; 250 members of Congress attend with VP/Cabinet members Mike Pence, Dan Coates, Ben Carson. The Fellowship aka The Family (Article DynCorp has information on The Family) founder Abraham Vereide began the “Fellowship” in 1935, meeting with Jesuit Fr Heinrich Himmler; current leader Zach Coe (Zacharias the father of John the Baptist “Yahweh remembers” may ring a Baal) is the son of co-founder Doug Coe (died 2017) who formed what is called Diplomacy by Stealth. Luciferian Freemason Billy Graham was Keynote speaker twice as was 7th Day Adventist HUD Sec Ben Carson. Education Sec Betsy DeVoss’ brother Eric Prince, a blood oath sworn Knight of Malta like Donald Trump runs Academi aka Black Water Mercenaries. Coe teaches mass murderers like Pol “Killing Field” Pot, Adolph Hitler, Fr Joseph Stalin SJ, Muhammad Suharto (E Timor genocide), Sudan genocidal dictator Omar al Bashir and Uganda Dictator Yoweri Museveni (sets MTG Agendas) and Yale Divinity School grad Chairman Mao Tse Tung exemplified the real message of the New Covenant best; totaled 250M+ Deaths and counting. The Invocation Prayer given by Yale Divinity School Grad, Episcopal Most Rev Michael Curry who supports Gay Marriage, Lesbian and Homosexual Priests.
You may remember Most Reverend (Gag me) Curry from Harry and Meghan’s Royal wedding; Meghan praised Ireland’s “Legalized Abortion on Demand” Law Feb 9; Harry wore a Nazi arm band to a Halloween party; about as classy as illegal immigrant Melania Trump wearing a British Pith Helmet to Kenya, an “I really don’t care, do you?” jacket to an immigration detention center and a FLOTUS Hat to flood victims in Texas as Donald tossed out Bounty Paper Towers. Meghan is the Royal Crypto-Marrano-Sephardic (2 Ki 17:30) Babylonian princess who was first fake “Crypto” Jewish now fake “Marrano” Anglican; Harry’s father Prince Charles is a Muslim convert “Morisco”; his mother Queen Elizabeth calls herself “Queen of Jerusalem”; her husband Phillip wants to be reincarnated as a “Killer Virus”.
“Time is on our side now” Gun Control advocates like Nancy Pelosi in Congress following the Prayer Breakfast. The line from the Rolling Stones song was about the Devil; Time is Chaos/Chronos/Satan. Yale Divinity School Grad Mao Tse Tung “All Politics comes at the end of a gun barrel; first you take the guns, then comes the slaughter”. TimesUP
Feb 6
Imbolg/Candlemas/Groundhog Day is the day a woman becomes clean after birth of a son (Lev 12:2-4); the son is Solis Invictus aka Marduk/Horus/Zeus, the son of Saturn. The 32 Yr old INF (Intermediate Range Nuclear Force) Treaty between Russia and the US signed by Bohemian Grove Satanists Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev was ended on Imbolg (In the Belly); Russia, US and France promptly conducted Nuclear Missile tests; pulling the strings are Chabad Lubavitch Rabbis.
Trump’s Space Force is like Reagan’s $2T Star Wars, an enormous money vacuum. There are no Star Wars Satellites and no need for Space Force “Killer Satellites”. EM (Electro-Magnetic) Weapons demonstrated by the destruction of the Thresher Nuclear Submarine, Space Shuttle Challenger and Columbia prove what Donald Trump’s uncle John conceptualized in 1943 after the death of Nikola Tesla. In 1963 Communist Party Sec Nikita Krushchev “We have a fantastic new weapon, that if misused, is capable of destroying the world” Reagan’s “Tear down this Wall” speech under the Quadriga of Apollo in 1987 was followed by Obama’s 2 Yes We Can (Thank You Satan; Yes Language is also called Bird, Oil, Oc and Green Language) handed Gorby San Francisco’s Presideo Army Base for Green Cross International; Green Man is the Arab al Khidr aka Bacchus, Dionysus, the Knight Templar (International Bankers) god of Mammon.
Why now? 33 is the number of Sovereignty. The INF is 32 years old, 2017 was the Satanic 10th Jubilee Year planned 2000+ years ago by the Essenes and later by Rabbi Judah Ben Samuel and Maimonides in 1217, in 1517 by Black Cloistered Rosicrucian Monk Martin Luther, Black Nobility Pope Leo X and the 5th Lateran Council (Lateran means Hidden Frogs, the spirits of Satan, Antichrist and False Prophet), and later by Tzaddiq Baal Shem Tov ca 1760 and Rabbi Yehudah Ashlag.
Master of the Good Name YHWH Baal Shem Tov established Hassidic Movement; not Jewish in any sense, Chasidic Jews and their Chabad Lubavitchers have 200K adherents and 3600 Chabad Houses in 1000 Cities in 70 Nations (Reps just for the Concert of Creation at the Temple Mount) controlling Netanyahu, Trump, Putin and others toward the goal of WWIII/Armageddon. Chasidic and Chabad Lubavitch originate with Chesed (Hebrew Kashed), a son of Abram’s brother Nahor (Gen 2:22), born in Ur of the Chaldees and later Ur of Harran (Harranites are Star, Planet worshippers); they are Chaldean/Sabian “Cryptos” not followers of God or any of His Laws, but rather Gnostic Priests of Satanic Noahide and Shariah Laws which require decapitation of everyone in a New Covenant relationship with JESUS aka JEHOVAH (Ex 6:3KJV) JAH (Ps 68:4KJV) and Melchisedek. Chabad is the Cult of Saturn; the Head of the Snake whose plan is to hasten the arrival of their Moshiach.
Donald Trump’s 66th floor Penthouse is a Shrine to Apollo, the sun god featured in his solar chariot at the Sochi Olympics; Trump, Emmanuel “Jupiter” Macron and Vladimir Putin are puppets “Shabbaz Goy” controlled by Chabad Lubavitch Rabbis toward implementation of Noahide Laws. “The purpose of politics is to menace the populations with an endless array of hobgoblins, all imaginary”

Chinese New Year of the Earth Pig
Jesuit Papal Mass in a Sunni Mosque Jesuit means Society of Gesu “Earth Pig”
“State of the Union” Trump, an Ashkenazi (Drumpf) Marrano (Swine) fake Presbyterian singled out “D-Day 1944”; nobody called him out on the mistake; neither the Democratic Rebuttal nor Media “Fact Checkers”; D-Day was in 1941; 1944 was not a mistake made by Speech Writers, it was a 700 year old Cathar Prophecy made in 1244 at Montsegur, as the last Cathar “Perfecti” were Holocausted by the Catholic Church and French King “Every 700 years the laurel grows green again” Laurel is the Crown of Bacchus (Satan).
Trump called for a Wall on the Southern Border; Snake oil salesman Walter Trump called for a Southern Border Wall in 1958 episode “End of the World” in the series Track Down. House speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Sephardic Marrano fake Catholic tells Council for Christian Colleges her favorite bible verse “To minister to the needs of God’s Creation is an act of worship” The verse is not in the bible “Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen” Rom 1:25 Worship of Creation ie the Creature is the Beast, not the Creator. Donald Trump may not read books, but said he identifies with Ayn Rand character Howard Roark, a Skyscraper builder who rages against the establishment. In 1897, the same year the Zionist Congress met in Basel Switzerland Baron Trump’s Marvelous Underground Journey was published; an outsider flaunting his wealth building skyscrapers in NY as Baron Trump meets a man called “Donald” claiming to be “King of Kings” who rescues him from Chaos resulting from a Government Shutdown and financial collapse.
Appointment of US Anti-Semitism Czar Army JAG, Baghdadi/Ashkenazi Crypto fake Jew Elan Carr isn’t Jewish, but loves hoisting the Chabad Lubavitch Hanukkah Menorah. Donald Trump has appointed 33 CFR members to key positions; the CFR Magazine “Foreign Affairs” has the Pale Horse “Death” and Ubiquitous on its cover; members are oath sworn to end National Sovereignty, violating the Oaths they take to enter public office. “Above all else brethren Swear Not”
Cross washes ashore on Galt Ocean Drive Ft Lauderdale Who is John Galt? All of us; well Gnostics that is. Galt: Brick, Clay-Earth, Pig. The builders of the Tower of Babel had Bricks for Stone (Gen 11:3). The TOES of the Gold, Silver, Brass, Iron Babylonian Idol are made of Clay and Iron. The Tower of Babel (Gate of El/Saturn) is finished at Rev 13, the start of the Great Tribulation. Rev 13:8 (13/8=Phi “Ratio of Life”) is the first time the term “Earth Dwellers” is used to describe Gnostics. Jesuit “Society of Gesu” means Earth-Pig. So now answer the question Who is John Galt? Ayn Rand would say “All of Us” however John is Oannes the Chaldean Beast of the Sea/Ocean “Bistea Neptunis” aka Philistine Dagan (Dag=Fish) seen in the Papal Mitre of Dagan.
NATO signs pact with Macedonia Looks like the Grecian Goat and Mede-Persian Ram are about to lock horns; this time not in Mary of Mercies Stadium in Atlantis.
Jesuit (Society of Gesu=Earth Pig) Pope Francis holds Papal Mass with Grand Imam Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayeb in the United Arab Emirates on the Chinese New Year of the Earth Pig. 2 Wolves in Sheep’s Clothes leading their flocks to slaughter. The Roman Catholic Church is in Communion with Orthodox, Anglican and Protestant Churches; Pope Francis a Marrano fake Catholic is the so-called Vicar of Jesus; Sheikh (Arab religious leader) el-Tayeb is a Morisco, fake Sunni Muslim appointed by Luciferian Mason Hosni Mubarak who supports a Global Sufi League; Sufis being the esoteric branch of Shia Ismailis.
Time for Muslims and Catholics to Wake Up! The Jesuit “Mother of all Churches worldwide” is the St John Lateran Arch-basilica in Rome, home to Sede vacante (Vacant Seat); Lateran means “Hidden Frogs”, the 3 unclean spirits of the Devil, Antichrist and False Prophet (Rev 12:9; 16:13) John is Oannes, the Chaldean Sea Beast. 1517 was year one of the Essenes 10 Jubilee plan to install the False Messiah; Black Nobility Pope Leo X signed the 5th Lateran Council proclamation declaring “Indestructibility of the Soul” as Catholic Dogma; Jesus will judge every Soul that has ever lived as Alpha, I AM, JEHOVAH, Melchisedek, Shiloh and Omega; don’t be fooled! Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayeb is a Sufi mystic and Ismaili. The Covenant God made with Abram stipulated his sons not take wives of Canaanite women; Ishmael and Esau disobeyed, losing the “h” (God is with me) Ishmael became Ismail, a wild ass, living among his brethren (Middle East); Esau became Edom (Adam/Red) and is living inside the gates of Jerusalem (Ref Obadiah). In control of the Temple Mount, King David’s Tomb and Cenacle are the Jesuits, thanks to Israeli PM Shimon Perez aka Crypto fake Jew Simon Perski.
The 2 leaders signed the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” stating “Pluralism and diversity of religions is willed by God” What God? Certainly not Jesus who said “Think not that am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother…” Mat 10:34 Not a first, Palestine President and Luciferian Freemason Mahmoud Abbas celebrated Christmas Eve Mass in Manger Square; that Christmas Mass was for Solis Invicti, the Unconquered Sun! The Straight Gate is getting narrower and the Wide Gate is getting Wider.
Donald Trump chose the Chinese New Year of the Earth Pig and Islam/Catholic Papal Mass to appoint another Crypto fake Jew Elan Carr to an Ambassador Level position of Anti-Semitism Czar Odd? So is Zionist-Sikh Nikki Haley Chair of the Council of 70 Nations
The same day in Ft Lauderdale, a 20ft Cross washed ashore on Galt Ocean Drive, a sign from God? Doubtful, Jesus was Nailed to a Tree Ref Deut 21:23; Acts 5:30;10:39;13:29,Gal 3:13 (Pope Francis was selected on 3/13/13, there are 313! in Scripture), 2 Pet 2:24; Jn 19:31 all references to KJV; Tree is replaced by Cross in most all new versions; the Cross is a pagan symbol called the Tau, Ankh (Egyptian Cross of Life), a symbol of the post-Flood 4 Quartered Earth and Atlantis, the mythical pre-Flood world of Sin ruled by Saturn. Who is John Galt? may be familiar Ayn Rand was another Crypto fake Jew Alissa Rosenbaum who posited this question in Atlas Shrugged; Atlas is Atlantis; Trump identifies with Galt, a philosopher/inventor who glorifies human ability and independence from God, choosing to seek the Isle of Atlantis and the Fountain of Youth. The meaning? My guess is Florida is about to be submerged like Atlantis and the US Navy, NOAA (cute play on Noah eh) and FEMA have disaster planning maps indicating that fact. Lauderdale is Scottish for “Ditch or Trench”; Atlantis a city encircled by Ditches and Trenches. Happy Earth Pig Year!
Jesuits took their first Oaths in the crypt of St Denis (Dionysus/Green Man) Cathedral in Paris on the Feast Day of Lucifer Aug 15, 1534 and outlined their plan for 3 World Wars to usher in the Doctrine of Lucifer on Aug 15, 1871, the same time the United States became a CORPORATION whose CONSTITUTION provides no rights to Citizens. The Jesuit “Mother of all Churches Worldwide” is the St John Lateran Arch-basilica; Lateran means “Hidden Frogs”, the 3 unclean spirits of the Devil, Antichrist and False Prophet (Rev 12:9; 16:13)
Jesuits are Marranos (Pig/Swine) who leave their 1st religion, founded by the Serpent, to enter another religion for the purpose of destroying them ie 5th Column Traitors.
Crypto refers to Gnostics entering Judaism eg Kabbalists, Talmudists, Chasidics (Chesed was Abram’s brother, Rabbis); Marrano refers to Gnostics entering so-called Christian religions (Freemasons, Jesuits); Morisco refers to Gnostics entering Muslim religions, both Sunni and Shia. Both Francis and el-Tayeb await the same false “Messiah” called Zeus, Jupiter, Horus, Mithra, Marduk to name a few; the “Rising Sun” aka “Sol Invictus” born at Christmas. The Mass was held under a Crucifix topped with INRI; Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews? Not quite, more like Iesus Nazareus Rex Invdaeorum. INRI also stands for Nature is Renewed by Fire ie Holocaust. Nazareth has nothing to do with Nazarene; Sabians (Saba means Leave ones religion for another and Sunrise ie “Rising Sun”) of Harran are the Chaldeans of Ur. Francis and el-Tayeb signed an “Agreement of Fraternity”; Cain and Abel, Joktan and Peleg, Isaac and Ishmael were separated over the issue of God; we all need to be as well.
Elan Carr claims to be a mix of Baghdadi Jew and Ashkenazi Jew; neither are Jewish. Baghdadi Jews are Sabians ie Gnostics called Cryptos of Sephardic lineage who worship the Rising Sun while pretending to be Jewish, Islamic or Christian. Sephardics aka Sepharvaim are the Babylonians, Cuthites, Medeans, Canaanites who replaced Israel (2 Ki 17:30); Carr, an Army JAG (Lawyer) even set up the Hanukkah Menorah in one of Baathist (Renaissance) Saddam Hussein’s palaces; the Babylonian sun god Shamash is the center candle of the Hanukkah Menorah. Sheldon Adelson put $100K into Carr’s election to LA Dep District Attorney; Adelson and Mormon, Zion Senator, Iran-Contra Money Launderer Mitt Romney produced “Innocence of Muslims” depicting Muhammad having sex with a camel; how’s that for stirring the pot? Ashkenazis descend from Germanics like Trump (Drumpf); neither SEphardics or Ashkenazis are Semitic or Jewish.
Jesus or Rising Sun? TimesUp.
Feb 3, 2019
Temple Mount Concert of Creation Representatives of 70 Nations willing to accept and enforce Chabad Lubavitch Noahide Laws. Every US President from Richard Nixon to Donald Trump has endorsed Noahide Laws and Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson the “Messiah”. Every head of the EU has also endorsed Noahide Laws, which is why Seat 666 is held vacant at the EU Parliament was built as an Unfinished Tower of Babel with the Whore of Babylon riding the Beast out front. Sikhs are Monotheist “Students” similar to “Taliban” which also means “Student”; this is why Noahide Laws and Shariah Laws are virtually the same, both requiring decapitation of followers of Jesus Christ. Jesus warned “Call no man Master” (Mat 23:10) Guru means “Teacher”; Sikh Gurus are called “Master”. Jesus warned “Call no man Rabbi” (Mat 23:8) Jesus warned “Call no man Father” (Mat 23:9) Got it?
The Temple Mount is considered the Omphalos (Navel/Foundation) of the World, the site where Abram offered Isaac (Ishmael in the Koran) and the Winged White Horse al Buraq appeared according to Arab mythology; the Jebusite Threshing Floor King David purchased and Phoenicians built Solomon’s Temple, later destroyed for worship of the Six Pointed Star of Saturn aka Chaldean STUR; the site the same Winged White Horse took the Quyraish (Korahites of Num 16:8-10; 32; Num 26:10) Bedouin Muhammad on his “Night Flight” to Heaven and the site the 2nd Temple, Jesus (Alpha, I AM (Ex 3:14), God Almighty, JEHOVAH (Ex 6:3), JAH (Ps 68:4KJV), Shiloh (Gen 49:10) Melchisdek (Heb 7), Omega (Rev 22:13) referred to as a “Den of Thieves” and was Crucified. Shiloh means “He whose it is”; when Jesus returns for His property you will want to be ready.
Over Hanukkah, the Kohannim (fake Jews claiming descent from Aaron) invited 70 Nations (Zionist, Sikh UN Ambassador Nikki Haley was invited to Chair the Council of 70 Nations; Great choice!) to the Altar dedication ceremony for the 3rd Temple; the offering on the altar was a previously slaughtered Lamb, representing Jesus the Lamb of God. The annual Tropical (Solar) start of Aquarius (Pre-Flood Age of Saturn) aligned with the Stellar (Star) (A Star is Born may ring a Baal) Age of Aquarius for quite possibly the first time since Creation.
Tu b’ Shebat “Festival of Trees”: Jesus, the Tree of Life, rejected and replaced by the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil to which He was nailed to. Jesus amid 2 Thieves formed 6 uplifted arms surrounding Jesus aka the 7 Branch Candlestick now replaced by the Chabad Lubavitch 9 Branch Menorah, 8 Arms surrounding the Babylonian Sun God Shamash; Satan’s plan coming along nicely eh?
The Sanhedrin, in an illegal private nighttime meeting led by illegitimate Chaldean/Nabattean/Hasmonean/Maccabbean Priests Annas and Caiaphas ordered the Crucifixion and Nailing of Jesus to the Tree and is now the reformed Nascent Sanhedrin (Goats). 40 UN Ambassadors were invited to the Temple Mount to recognize Noahide Law and the Legitimacy of the Sanhedrin to enforce laws requiring the decapitation of followers of Jesus Christ worldwide. The concert at the Temple Mount was called “Concert of Creation” because Talmudic Rabbis believe Tu b’ Shebat is the original date of Creation; It is not. The original Sanhedrin ordered the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ under laws of Blasphemy, current Noahide Laws and Shariah Laws have the same Gnostic/Chaldean source and require decapitation of followers of Jesus Christ.
Israeli Laws don’t apply to me? Guess Again, Skull & Bones Satanist, Luciferian Freemason George HW “Magog” Bush (George Scherff Jr) signed Chabad Lubavitch Noahide Law as US Public Law 102-14 on Mar 20, 1991 called “The foundation of American Society”; The Essenes, Rabbi Judah ben Samuel, Rabbi Baal Shem Tov, Maimonides and Rabbi Yehudah Ashlag all agree 2019 is the Year of Messiah.
Mar 21, 2019 is a Super Full Moon on the day the Sun contacts the Altar on the Rose Line in the St Sulpice Cathedral in Paris (House of Isis) and the Serpent descends the 91 (1…13=91; 13 is the number of rebellion against God) steps of the Pyramid of Kukulkan. Chabad Lubavitch fake Jews will celebrate Purim; the day GHW Bush signed 7 Noahide Laws into effect in 1991 was the day he ordered the slaughter of 150,000 fleeing Iraqi conscripts on the “Hwy of Death” and buried them in the sand with tanks outfitted for the event with plows. This was the same day in 2003 GW “Gog” Bush Jr began Gulf War II with “Shock and Awe” (Shekinah “Feminine presence of God”=Mary of Mercies). All this is coincident with the Hindu Holi Festival (New Light) and Persian New Year “Nowruz” (New Light). Holi is highlighted by mixing colors; Krishna=Black forms, a name of Saturn “Black Sun” and Satan. The Nowruz Rooster Idols called Sanjaks also represent Lucifer, the UNKNOWN GOD of the Areopagus “Mars’ Hill” heralding the arrival of Lucifer to Earth at Rev 9:11 which is why Israel built a radiation hardened bunker with the Mezuzah (rewrite of Deut 6:4 rejecting Jesus as LORD) written by illegitimate “Scribes” Project 911 on Site 911 called “Beit Shemesh” (House of the Sun).
Mar 22 or “322” is the logo used by Skull & Bones (Skull is Temple of Wisdom sitting atop the Atlas Bone and 33 veterbrae) aka Teutonic Brotherhood of Death or Germanic Cult of Saturn. Adam followed Eve into Sin at Gen 3:22; Universal Health Care was signed into Law on Sunday “Dies Solis” 3/22/10 at 3:22 GMT by Church of Satan High Priestess, Sephardic Crypto Jew Nancy Pelosi. On 3/22 the Sun is exalted in Aries, seen in Tarot Card 19 “The Sun”; the Christ Child riding the Pale Horse “Death” is Antichrist. Aretha Franklin “Queen of Soul” is featured in Steeley Dan’s (4th Beast + Judge) Hey 19 may ring a Baal, the Metonic Cycle of the Sun and Moon is 19 years; the height of the Statue of Freedom standing atop the Capitol (Womb of Zeus) is 19 ft tall; there were 19 authors of Sepher Yetzirah, the Gnostic “Book of Creation” which later became the Zohar, the Rabbis “Book of Spendor”. Retha=Virtue/Excellence + Franklin=Free the Moabite widow and great grandmother of King David; placing a man from the lineage of David on the Throne of Zeus aka Satan’s Seat in a 3rd Temple is the goal of Chiliasm (Millennialism); Gnostics call this the Golden Age of Saturn; Jesus, the “King of Souls” returns on the last day of the Great Tribulation to destroy Gnosticism.
These are the same Scribes, Sadducees and Pharisees Jesus said were illegally sitting in Moses’ Seat; Whited Sepulchers full of dead men’s bones; Hypocrites; Synagogue of Satan damned to Hell in no uncertain terms. So, how was the Lamb-Goat Super Bowl?
Feb 2, 2019
“And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand. Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land Dan 8:7-9
After the 2002 blockbuster contract (Forbes reported $7.5M/Yr in 2010) and 5th Super Bowl win Bill Belichick said “We had the Devil on our side, the only fear was Atlanta fans heading to Mass, but on Super Bowl Sunday, we knew we were good to go”
Rams (Male Lamb) versus Patriots (Compatriot; Fellow Countrymen) led by the Greatest Of All Time (He-GOAT aka Capricornus) #12 (Jesus and 12 Disciples), throwing the Pigskin to the 1st Zionist MVP Julian Edelman. The 2019 Super Bowl in Mercedes (Merced=Grace; Mercedes “Mary of the Mercies”) Stadium in Atlanta (Atlantis) just ahead of the Chinese New Year of the Earth Pig on the day Catholics refer to as the Feast of Purification of the Virgin Mary of Mercies; Coincidence? Jesus will have no Mercy on Goats, separating them on His Left from Sheep on His Right, they will hear “Depart from me, I never knew you” Mat 7:23
A Football aka Pigskin is shaped as an Ellipse formed by the Intersection of 2 Circles called the Labrys, seen in the Aquarian Cross. The Labrys is the Birth Canal which forms the Golden Mean “Phi”, the “Ratio of Life”; “Life” (Creation) is what Gnostics (Chaldean-Sabian) worship, the purpose is the “Repair of the Earth” (Hebrew “Tikkun Olam”) to the conditions in Atlantis (Pre-Flood) ruled by the Titan Saturn. Atlanta means “Atlantis”, the Isle of Atlas; man becoming the Hero of the Earth aka Greatest Of All Time “GOAT”, the Freemasonic Grand Architect Of The Universe. Los Angeles Rams V New England Patriots (Compatriots, Fellow Countrymen refers to Cretans; Caphtorim) sounds like Dan 8 “Grecian Goat V Mede-Persian Ram by design. Jesuit Tobie Mathew’s aka Shakespeare or Francis Bacon’s book New Atlantis: A Worke Unfinished in plain sight.
Candlemas, the day Hoodwinked Roman Catholics celebrate Feast of Presentation of Jesus at the Temple (Lk 2:22-40) and the Purification (Lev 12; Patriot Priest Tom Brady wears #12) of the Virgin Mary after giving birth at Christmas; Sol Invictus is born at Christmas, not Jesus! The Chaldean/Gnostic Imbolg “In the Belly” was merely converted to Candlemas; candles representing “Light”. Neat trick eh? The Gnostic “Black” Virgin is Isis “Throne” of Antichrist.
Goats lead Sheep to the Slaughter One bad call and a 57 yd Zuerlein Pigskin through the Asherah Poles eliminated the Saints (Fleur di Lys is Lucifer’s Flower, a symbol of physical or Gnostic Circumcision; the New Covenant is a SPIRITUAL Circumcision). Every 57 years, the Sun and Moon return to the exact same position; the ZU “Storm Bird” is a Lion Headed Eagle (Eagle symbolizes Nisroch, the Assyrian form of Saturn; Lion symbolizes Shamash, the Assyrian Sun god) in Assyrian/Babylonian mythology; the Beast described in Daniel 7:4 to be exact.
Scapegoats are trained to lead the flock of Sheep to the Slaughter, they have Red (Esau sold his Soul and was renamed Edom=Red) legs, Sheep (Rams) can’t see because they are Color Blind. New Bible versions replace Scapegoat in Num 16:8-10 with Azazel (One of 99 names of Satan “Goat that Departs”); Jesus the real Scapegoat replaced by Azazel/Satan; nice eh?
Tom Brady #12, dubbed the Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) has no professed belief in God yet displays a Crystal Chabad Lubavitch Menorah in his homes. Julian Edelman #11 (11 is the number associated with Antichrist Ref Rev 11), dubbed Gridiron Maccabee by US Ambassador to Israel Ron Dermer praised Zionism founder Theodr Herzl in his children’s book and often wears the Six Pointed Star of Saturn (Chaldean STUR) and Talmudic Tree of Life. Maccabees cleaned Pigs Blood from the altar of the 2nd Temple and established Hanukkah during the Silent Period between Old and New Testaments when God was not speaking to Israel through Prophets or Scribes; they were called the Hammers of God Jewish? Hardly, Chaldeans in Jewish garb
Los Angeles Rams (Lambs + City of Angels) moved to St Louis and back. St Louis is named after King Louis IX who built the largest Stained Glass repository for Passion Relics, including the Crown of Thorns and Piece of the True Cross in Paris at St Chapelle (Holy Chapel); Gnostic fakes, but nonetheless claimed by the Goats to be the Crown Jesus wore at the Crucifixion and a piece of that Tree. Stephen, the first Martyr for Jesus means “Crown”; sounds a bit like a Stephen King novel eh? SkyNet 5G in fact, may be a lot like Children of Men, in fact just up Hwy 77 from Atlanta in the Gravestone Capital of Georgia are the Georgia Guide Stones aka “America’s Stonehenge” calling for the elimination of over 7 Billion people from Earth; you may recall GHW Bush wearing a CVN 77 “Goat Hat”; UA #77 hitting the 77ft tall Pentagon on the 77th Longitude on 9/11/2001 was pretty coincidental eh? So is Aleister Crowley’s book Liber 77: Book of the Goat St Louis is the Masonic Gateway to the West ie Los Angeles; the St Louis Arch which is shaped as an inverted Cantenary Arch (Thinned) Anchor Chain and sits at the northern end of the New Madrid Fault; Los Angeles on the San Andreas Fault; both areas underwater on FEMA and US Navy Disaster Planning Maps.
Patriots in Boston planned the Tea Party, the lead off event for the American Revolution (Sede-vacantist Mel Gibson’s The Patriot may ring a Baal) at the Green Dragon Tavern; Goats leading Sheep to Slaughter. Freemason Sam Adams is featuring the Patriot GOAT on its beer cans for Super Bowl 53. 5+3=8 “Eternity”; 5X3=15=6 the number of Man and Saturn; 555 the insignia Masons use for Victory on Masonic Coffins are the 3 Nails Talmudic Rabbis call the Sign of Shin to open Synagogues of Satan; Jesus is positioned at the 5-6 level X on the Kaballah Tree of Life. Masons (Goats) dressed up like Natives (Scapegoats) and dumped British (B’Rith=Birthright Covenant) Tea, the Masonic foundation of today’s “T-Party”. T is not the drink, but the Tao Cross of Tammuz “Purify by Fire”, the fake god of Lent.
Take a Globe and stretch a string from Atlanta to Boston; it will pass directly over the first 5 American colonies: Washington DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston; now extend it to Teotihuacan “Place where men become Gods” just east of Mexico City and fix the end at Baalbek aka Heliopolis “City of the Sun” just northeast of Jerusalem; it will pass over Stonehenge, Troy and Sophia (Gnostic Wisdom). Coincidental? Sure, just like 2019 being the Chinese Year of the Earth Pig; you may recall the demons collectively called “Legion” cowered in the face of the Lamb of God Jesus Christ, preferring to enter a herd of Swine before jumping off the cliff to their deaths. If you are still unable to See clearly, ask JESUS for a little help, or you can watch the Mede-Persian Ram versus the Grecian Goat toss the Pigskin through the Asherah Poles I guess! Either way “Little Horn” will rise as Antichrist the Gnostic Twin (Thomas=Twin) of Jesus aka Pale Horse “Death”. Doubt this? Thomas did too, if you still do, I suggest putting your finger in the wounds like he did before the Herd is thinned.
Feb 1, 2019
Saturn (Time, Black Star) will remain in Capricorn (Sea Goat) until 2020. The Chinese New Year 2019 begins the Year of the Earth Pig. Jesuits are the Society of Gesu “Earth Pig”. Sir Tobie Matthew SJ aka Sir Francis Bacon “Free Pig” fits the description of Marrano “Swine”, Chaldeans who leave their religion for another “Conversos”; history records them as Crypto, Marrano or Morisco. The Extreme Oath of Induction into the Jesuit Order requires initiates to pretend to be Protestant, Jewish and Catholic in order to destroy their religions from the inside.
Knighted Jesuit Tobie Matthew’s book New Atlantis: A worke unfinished details the plan for Saturn to reign supreme in the New Age, a symbolic return to the pre-Flood age; the Chaldean Supreme Deity is Saturn and has infected every religion on Earth. America is to be the Assyrian Phoenix of the New Age; a symbolic bird not born of parents but itself.
China=Sina “Sin”, the Arab moon god “Sin” is called “Allah”; Cathay=Sons of Heth “Hittites”; Santa, the Hittite god of the west is Saturn; the Chinese Red Dragon described in Rev 12:9 as Satan, Devil, Serpent deceiving the entire world.
Chaldeans in Ur (Sumer/Babylon “Gate of Saturn”) changed their name to Sabians (Saba means “Convert or Change”) of Harran; Harranites worshipped and prayed to the King of Light (Lucifer means “Light Bearer”) facing North (God’s home is in the North as is Santa and Superman whose Red/Blue Suit encompasses visible light), none other than the agricultural deity Saturn aka “Grim Reaper”.
Harran was known as “Heathenopolis” (Heath= Earth) because of their worship of 7 Planets (Earth, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, Stars of the 12 Zodiac signs and Idols; not Christian, Muslim or Jewish. Eg Sirius is the Arab al Qalb, the Star where Satan resides which became the Mormon Kolob, the home of “Embryo Souls”; Isis means “Throne”.
Saba also means “To Rise; Apostatize”; Apostate Sabians worship Creation (Creature) rather than the Creator; worship of the “Rising Sun” in the East caused the Glory of the LORD to depart the 1st 2 Temples and will again. On Dec 25, an Annular Solar Eclipse Christmas Day (Mass of Christ) will Ring the Moon (Sin) with the Halo of the Sun with Jupiter behind (Best Man) until Saturn moves into that position in January (Janus is 2 faced god of doors looking to the past and future) 2020 (Perfect Vision).
Saturnian Crypto Jews Chasidics (Chesed is Abram’s brother) call Jupiter “King Star” and “Tzedeq” (Righteous), regarding the planet as the son of Saturn and the “Scepter” conveying Kingship to Saturn. Shiloh returns as the Lion of Judah (Gen 49:10) carrying the Scepter, his name means “He whose it is”;
Jesuits penned the plan for 3 World Wars on the Feast Day of Lucifer Aug 15, 1871 to pit forces of political Zionism against Islam to the point of physical, emotional and economic exhaustion in order for the world to accept the true Doctrine of Lucifer, the Sabin “Angel of Light”. Offspring of Saturn are Sin, the Islamic Allah and Shamash, the Assyrian sun Lion which occupies the center position on the Hanukkah Menorah in Israel, the center of Zionism.
Jesuit is derived from Gesu; Ge=Earth + Sus=Pig; Society of Jesus? Not on your life! Their HQ St John Lateran Arch-basilica is considered the “Mother of all Churches Worldwide” and contains Sede vacant (Vacant Seat), of who? Lateran means “Hidden Frogs”, the unclean spirits of the Devil, Antichrist and False Prophet (Rev 12:9;16:13). China is Cathay; Cath=Heth Land of the Hittites; the Hittite god of the West? Santa, a difficult to see anagram for Satan; their national symbol? Red Dragon.
Lunar Eclipse over the Americas Jan 21, 2019 coincides with Tu’b Shebat “Festival of Trees”; Jesus, the Tree of Life was Crucified; the Saturnian fake Jew Tree of Life is the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil symbolized by the Kaballah Tree of Life.
Mar 21 Equinox coincides with Purim; Pur=Lots; Puru “Cast lots for Marduk”, the Assyrian supreme god arrives 1 Nisan which aligns with “Tartan Day” April 6. Mar 21 is the Persian Nowruz “New Light” Festival. The Rooster Idols “Sanjaks” are the UNKNOWN GOD of the Areopagus, Nergal, Mars or Ares, the Cock heralding the Rising Sun aka the Angel of Light “Lucifer”. Mar 21 is the Hindu Holi Festival; Krishna means “Black”; Saturn is the Black Sun; mix colors to form Black. The Sun will hit the Brass Altar “Rose Line” at St Sulpice Cathedral as the Serpent descends the 91 (1….13=91) Steps of El Castillo in Chichen Itza.
Dec 25-26, 2019 “Christmas” Annular Solar Eclipse forms a Halo around the Moon The pagan Arab moon god is Sin aka Anammelech, consort of Adrammelech, the Assyrian Sun god. Hanukkah “Feast of Dedication” Dec 22-28, Shamash the Babylonian Sun Lion is the center candle. Jupiter is regarded by Saturnian fake Jews as the Scepter and Tzedek. Melchisedekians are the Cult of Saturn; Jupiter, the King Star and son of Saturn is Veiled by the Sun at the end of Hanukkah Dec 28.
Gen 49:10 tells us Shiloh (He whose it is ie Master of the House) aka Jesus (Alpha), returns with the Scepter as the Lion of Judah; Jupiter is not Jesus folks! Saturn is behind the Sun Jan 13-14, 2020; Saturnian fake Jews call Saturn “Ring Bearer” and Chiun (Kewan, Kaiwan) aka Queen of Heaven whom Jeremiah warned against (Jer 7:18) worshipping; Jupiter and Saturn become the 2 Witnesses of the fake Jewish Wedding Ring given to the Bride. 7 Blessings symbolic of the Jesuit made up 7 Yr Tribulation and New Dispensation for Israel, neither of which are in Scripture (Amos 5:2;26; 7:2-3; 6-7KJV) because Jacob is not longer called Israel and Israel is still worshipping the Six Pointed Star of Saturn aka Chiun, their Queen of Heaven. After the wedding, the groom breaks a Glass symbolizing the Broken Sun Wheel (Swastika) symbolizing the Earth, broken at the Flood; the Saturnian goal is Tikkun Olam (Repair the Earth) to pre-Flood conditions ruled by Saturn (Satan, Serpent, Devil Rev 12:9) in the Garden of Eden, minus the real Tree of Life Jesus Christ of course! The Best Man traditionally blasts the Trumpet to signal the Wedding is complete; the 7th and final Trumpet in scripture heralds Body Resurrection of invitees to the Wedding of the Lamb and return of Jesus as the KING of KINGS. This Trumpet blast is more of a Saturnian Jewish wedding.
A once in several thousand year alignment of planets will form the Kabbalah Tree of Life over Hanukkah/Christmas 2019; Earth, Sun and the Galactic Center aligned vertically with Mars, Jupiter and Saturn “Above” the Horizon and Mercury, Venus, and the Moon “Below”
Jesus warned “I am come in my father’s name and ye reject me; another shall come in his own name and he ye will accept” Jn 5:43 Rabbis eagerly await their Messiah; for followers of Jesus Christ, the King already came and was Crucified and Nailed to the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil; Talmudic/Kabbalist Rabbis open Synagogues of Satan with the Sign of Shin celebrating the Nails and their apparent victory over Jesus. Don’t follow them to Hell!
13.0.0.0.0, the Mayan Calendar date corresponds to the 2012 Solar Solstice, based on Venus cycles; Venus (Desire, Strive for, Charm) is the Arab “al Uzza” (Most Mighty); the interaction with the Sun is the basis of the Golden Mean “Phi” aka Ratio of Life. 7 Yr Tribulation is a Dispensational Lie; 12/21/2012 + 7 yrs=12/21/2019. Hanukkah 12/22/2019-12/30/2019; Daniel’s 70th Week? Not on your eternal life. Israel has a Chief Priest “Kohannim”, Red Heifer, Cornerstone of the 3rd Temple, and Altar built. A radiation hardened bunker with the Mezuzah rejecting Jesus Christ written over every door called Project 911 on Site 911 “Beit Shemesh” (Shamash, the Babylonian Sun Lion is the center candle of the Chabad Hanukkah Menorah) is built. Why? Satan is cast to Earth at Rev 9:11, 5th Trumpet Warning/1st Woe ! (5 months) is followed by the 6th Trumpet Warning/2nd Woe ! (13 months, 1 week, 1 day) and 7th Trumpet/3rd Woe! aka Body Resurrection of those in Christ. The last day is the “Day of Wrath”. The last Week? “And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make mercy, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. And after three days and an half, the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them…And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither: And they ascended upon to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies behold them” Rev 11:10-12 Midweek 2019 is Christmas (Mass=Sacrifice + Christ). Think Jesus was born on Christmas? Guess again.
Quite the plan eh? TimesUp folks! The choice is Jesus or Saturn with consequences that last forever.

Black Ops China, North Korea, Russia developing a Nuclear Super EMP weapon for “Black War”. Getting pretty obvious: Black is Saturn; Ops, Saturn’s wife means “Abundance/Wealth/Property” CHAMP is a Boeing EMP weapon; this Black Op will be Saturn’s Magnum Opus and the world’s biggest “Inside Job” Call of Duty Black Ops 4: Absolute Zero. EMP specialist Zero uses EMP in Black Out War. Saturn is the Black Star, his daughter-wife is Ops, the source of Black Ops; Zeus’ wife Rhea equivalent with Ops.

Saudi Arabia planning to bulldoze Jebel al Lawz aka Mt Sinai to make way for NEOM, a 10,000 Sq Mi Artificial Intelligence City. NEOM’s 1st Citizen is an AI robot named “Sophia” (Gnostic Wisdom) built by Hanson Robotics (David Hanson) which stated its goals were to dominate the human race, reduce human population, do every job humans currently do and hold Governments hostage by hacking into Weapon Systems such as missiles using the Internet.https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=14&v=VjGqM1Xq11M
On Jan 11 Locusts plagued Mecca; the god of Mecca if the Black Stone of the Kaaba; the Stone of Jupiter and Black Cube of Saturn. The 8th plague of Locusts preceding the Exodus devoured what food remained after the 7th plague Hail destroyed crops; Mecca, just east of NEOM means “Adultery” (Mechus). The first Commandment in both Old (Mt Sinai) and New Covenants is “Have no other Gods before me”.

Bull Calf of the Sun Utu about to be born? The Solar Dynamics Lab captured this time-lapse of an unusual Sun Spot https://sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov/assets/usermovies/20190123174013/movie/20190123174013_512_aia_0193.mp4
A baby, head down in the womb, about to be born of the Sun? The Son of the Sun is not Jesus Christ but Antichrist aka Marduk “Calf of the sun god Utu” Don’t be fooled! Babies usually go to the head down position at 33-36 weeks, 6-9 weeks before delivery; 8 weeks into the Western new year is a Full Moon on Feb 19 to start Virgo; the next Full Moon is Mar 21, the Equinox Full Moon which matches the Hindu “Holi” Festival, Persian “Nowruz” (New Light) and Talmudic Purim (Pur means Cast Lots for Marduk) the Calf of the Sun. Utu is called Bel “Confounder” in Jer 50:2, the twin brother/lover of Inanna “Queen of Heaven” whom Jeremiah warned of in Jerusalem 7:18.
Jan 21, 2019
Super, Blood, Wolf Moon Eclipse over Western Hemisphere on Tu b’shebat, the Talmudic “Festival of Trees”. Jesus, the Tree of Life was rejected and nailed to a Tree between 2 Thieves forming the 7 Branch Candlestick Moses constructed; Israel uses a 9 Branch Menorah with the Babylonian Sun Lion “Shamash” in its Candlestick. World Economic Forum Jan 22 Davos, Switzerland. Economy means “Household Manager”; Jesus Created and Owns the House; WEF aka Gnomes of Zurich steal the “House” through Usury.
Jan 21 is the start of Aquarius, the symbolic age ruled by the Titan Saturn, seen in the Six Pointed Star of Saturn (Chaldean STUR) on Israel’s Flag. Donald Trump has an Inaugural picture in the White House dated Jan 21, 2017; off by a day and not a mistake; his name is Germanic/Ashkenazi “Drumpf”, a descendant of Scottish Knights Templars through his mother Mary McLeod; the Presbyterian Church celebrates Kirkin O Tartan (Church of Tartan) on April 6; descendants of Knights Templar and Scottish Jacobites who instigated Revolution.Essenes in 11Q13 “Prince Melchisedek Scroll” planned the return of Melchisedek after the 10th Jubilee which has been identified by Rabbi Judah ben Samuel and Maimonides in 1217 as being 1517, the year Martin Luther split the Church and the year Black Nobility Pope Leo X (Leo=Lion + Messiah) and the 5th Lateran Council proclaimed the Gnostic Doctrine “Indestructibility of the Soul” as Catholic Dogma. Lateran means Hidden Frogs, the 3 spirits of the Devil/Dragon/Serpent, Antichrist and False Prophet (Rev 12:9;16:13); the Archbasilica of St John Lateran is the “Mother of all Churches worldwide” according to the Jesuits whose 1st Oaths were taken in the St Denis Cathedral Crypt in Paris on the Feast Day of Lucifer Aug 15, 1534; Denis is Dionysus aka “Green Man” called Al Khidr by the Arabs.
The Aquarius symbol is carved into the obelisk at another Paris Cathedral; called St Sulpice Cathedral; the Brass Line is referred to as the “Rose Line”; Par=House + IS ie Islamic State; Allah being the Arab moon god “Sin”; Lucifer being the “Man of Sin”.
According to the Hillel (Halal=Crescent; Shine; Lucifer/Sin) School, Tu b’shebat is the real New Year. The Jan 21 Lunar Eclipse is followed by Full Moons on Feb 19, the day Aquarius transitions to Pisces (Fish Symbol=Golden Mean and on Mar 21, the Spring Equinox and day Pisces transitions to Aries; all totaled, a reverse of the Axis Precession which brings the age back to Sargon the Great just after the Flood; Sargon III will be the Assyrian Antichrist; Assyria symbolized by the Eagle (standing on the US Flag, $US and Flags of the Americas)
In 2018 on Tu b’shebat a Lunar Eclipse was over the Eastern Hemisphere in 2019 a Lunar Eclipse occurs over the Western Hemisphere as the New Horizons spacecraft reached Ultima Thule (Farthest Horizon) Horus ie the son of Osiris (Saturn/Green Man) and Isis is called “Horus of the 2 Horizons”; the intersection of the 2 Horizons is the Pisces/Fish symbol aka Golden Mean “Phi”
The Mar 21 Full Moon on Purim aligns with the Persian Nowruz “New Light”; and Holi Festival; the Peacock Idol of the Yezidis on Nowruz is Lucifer. Puru is Assyrian/Akkadian meaning “Lots”, the day literally means “Cast Lots for Marduk”.
April 6 “Tartan Day” is 1 Nisan/Abib; Tartan (2 Ki 18:17; Is 20:1) Tartan is the Assyrian Army Commander whose Treasonous pact with Ephraim led to Israel’s captivity and replacement with Ashkenazi (Germanic) fake Jews.
The Assyrian Akitu Festival on 1 Nisan (April 6) celebrates the victorious return of Marduk who conquers the Zu Bird (Lion with Eagle Wings) a symbol of Babylon. The Assyrian Eagle is Nisroch (Saturn Ref 2 Ki 19:37) ZU is Anzu the giant storm bird breathing fire and water, pictured as Lion headed Eagle in Sumerian/Akkadian mythology; the similarity with Rev 9:7-8 5th Trumpet as well as Shamash the Babylonian Sun Lion. Marduk is also depicted as a Dragon-Eagle which is the symbol of Esau “Exalting himself as an Eagle” (Oba) Zeus (Marduk, Jupiter, Horus) as an Eagle descending from Olympus and the Kingdom of Babylon (Lion with Eagle’s Wings). Assyria worshipped the Eagle as Nisroch aka Saturn. 2 Ki 19:37
Daniel 7:4 “The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings; I beheld till the winds thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feed as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it”
It seems we in the US are in the final stage of being declared Babylon (Rev 18) “For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together”. The Eagle sits atop the US Flag for a reason! The Eagle is Nisroch the Assyrian word for Saturn/Satan 2 Ki 19:37 “The best place to hide big secrets is out in the open” Nazi propaganda minster Joseph Goebbels. Nazis used the Eagle and Swastika as their symbol; the US puts the Eagle on top of their Flag. Pretty bold eh?
If there was ever a time to establish a relationship with God (JESUS) via the Holy Ghost, it is now!
Tokyo 2020 Olympics
Tokyo, Japan Olympics 24 July -9 Aug 2020 Venues located on Tokyo Harbor Islands bathed in Fukushima Radiation at the same location the radioactive mutant Godzilla rose from the sea 66 years earlier.
66 refers to “Loss of Faith”; in the Apocryphal “Book of Adam”, 66 is the number associated with Adam returning to Eden (Google NROL-66, the Bull God Molech shot into orbit is as obvious as it gets); Rabbis refer to this Repair of the Earth “Tikkun Olam”; in French “The Man”=66; Mort (Death)=66 and Curse (Maudir)=66; not coincidentally, Donald Trump’s 66th floor Penthouse/Shrine to Apollo (Apollyon “Destroyer”) were featured 120 years earlier Ingersol Rand’s book “Baron Trump’s Marvelous Underground Journey”; the Columbus Circle address on 57th St refers to Columbia, the Roman goddess whose name is synonymous with America. Every 57 years, the Moon returns to the exact same time and place; Moon is used 57 times in scripture; the Arab moon god “Sin” is called Allah whose name in Hebrew=66.
57 can be seen in SkyNet 5G; G=7 the Masonic “Grand Architect”; SkyNet the Internet based Artificial Intelligence computer grid which becomes “Self Aware” and guides “Terminators” to eliminate all Flesh on Earth, especially targeting the future “Savior” John Conner; John=Oannes the Chaldean fish god rising from the Sea; Conner means “Inspector”.
Tokyo means Estuary “Capital of the East”; Japan means “Rising Sun”. Jesuits, having taken their first Oaths in the Crypt of St Denis (Dionysus “Green Man”) on the Feast Day of Lucifer Aug 15, 1534 (aka Feast of Assumption of Mary) moved to take control of Tehran (Targum), the capital of the Nizari Assassins who worshipped the UNKNOWN GOD called “Old Man of the Mountain”, and Nagasaki, the site of the “Fat Man” donation, a man-made Plutonium Core weapon 1st tested as “Gadget” on July 16, 1945 at the “Trinity Site”.
Uranium is named after Ur of the Chaldees. Plutonium is named after Pluto “Hades” or “Orcus”, the son of Eris, goddess of discord and brother of Zeus and Poseidon; Aquaman, the son of Poseidon obtains the Kingdom by flattery and becomes a vain, ruthless dictator rising from the Sea, the bible refers to as Antichrist. Orcus means “Hell”, he is the punisher of broken oaths, hence the association with the Pale Horse rider (Green Man or Godzilla) “Death” whose worship brings “Hell”.
Upon hearing of the successful production/detonation of man’s creation “Plutonium”, named after the Roman god of the underworld, Edward Teller said “It’s a boy!” J Robert Oppenheimer quoted Shiva “I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds” (Recall Mort=Death=66) as ships set sail for Japan with Uranium and Plutonium bombs FDR refused to detonate, but 33 degree Luciferian Mason Harry Truman agreed to.
Godzilla: Lamech’s wife Zillah + God; Zillah is the mother of Tubal-cain, the instructor of all artificers of metal like Uranium and Plutonium. “Who is Tubal-cain?” is answered by Masons with “Vulcan of the Canaanites”; Vulcan the blacksmith who forged the Nails used to fasten Jesus to the Tree portrayed by Spock whose “Sign of Shin” (Shin=Nail) is used by Talmudic Rabbis to open Synagogues. The “Fat Man” Plutonium Bomb looks identical to Elon Musk’s “Tintin” fake Mars rocket because Mars if the same UNKNOWN GOD called by the Assassins “Old Man of the Mountain”; the Mars mission fake spacesuits look like the set of Ender’s Game for what should be obvious reasons.
9 Av is the saddest day in Jewish history, revered as the date the 1st and 2nd Temples were destroyed, Bar Kochba Revolt etc. is midweek during the Japan Olympics; the 3rd Temples are bodies of followers of JESUS whose “2020 Vision” comes from a Baptism of the Holy Ghost; or you can wait to see if Godzilla rises from the Capital of the Rising Sun.

The Covenantal Basis of Sacramental Validity
Good question:
Do Oriental Orthodox have valid sacraments? What about the Anglicans or the Assyrian Church of the East. Where do you draw the line? Much appreciated!
I believe the Oriental Orthodox, the Assyrian Church of the East, and the Roman Catholic Church have a valid priesthood and sacraments. The reason I say so is that the formal teaching of the Church of England after the Elizabethan reforms preclude the sort of priestly charism whose transmission is the essential purpose of the sacrament of ordination.
But we ought to be precise about what it means for a church to have valid priesthood and sacraments. Indeed, what is the theological basis for such things as a valid baptism? The apostles, particularly Paul, closely associate the faith which justifies the Christian with the mystery of baptism. Romans 6:7 says that a person is “justified” from sin in baptism in the same letter where justification by faith is a major emphasis. A person is justified by faith in baptism. We can also compare the language of Ephesians 2:8-10 to the description of baptism in Colossians 2 to see the key connection. I believe the most helpful text in this regard is Acts 22, where Ananias says to Paul: “rise, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His Name.”
The phrase “calling on the Name of the Lord” is first used in Genesis 4 and is echoed throughout the law, the prophets, and the New Testament. Its use in the New Testament principally derives from the text in Joel 2 where we are told that the Spirit will be “poured out on all flesh” so that “all who call on the Name of the Lord” will be saved. Notice that there is a very close conceptual link between the words “Name” and “call.” The word “call” is frequently used in scripture to denote the verbal act of naming. In one respect, then, the phrase means “Naming the Name of the Lord.” In baptism, we are given a new name through death and resurrection by being baptized “into” the Name of the Lord. The genealogy that begins with the son of Adam who initiates “calling on the Name of the Lord” is brought to a new beginning with Shem- whose name means “name.” Shem’s genealogy is brought to a new beginning through Abram, whom God promises to give a “great Name” and who receives a new personal name.
What, then, accounts for the connection between these two words? To grasp this, one must attend to the biblical freight of the “Name of the Lord.” In scripture, as in traditional societies, a personal name expresses the intrinsic qualities and character of a person. God thus “reveals” His Name “Yahweh” (“the Lord”) for the first time in Exodus because it is in the exodus that the quality of God signified by this Name “Yahweh” is covenantally revealed. In the patriarchal period, God’s preeminent name was “God Almighty.” The word “Shaddai”, based on other Near Eastern cognates, seems to relate to the mountain, both in the greatness and power signified by the mountain and also from the mountain’s relation to the human breast. While this might sound bizarre, consider the contexts in which God is revealed as “Shaddai.” God is “El Shaddai” when He makes prophetic promises which appear to be, at first glance, extremely unlikely. God promises the barren and decrepit that they will have countless children. How can we trust this promise? Because God is mighty as the great mountains. And what is being promised? A family- God will give the family of Abraham a fresh birth and nourish them with milk in their promised land. The imagery of birth is used in Deuteronomy 32 among other places: the Lord “gave [Israel] birth.”
The God with the power to give birth through the barren and do the impossible is the God who is the living and regenerative Almighty.
“The Lord” is revealed in exodus because the word “Yahweh” signifies the One who actively fulfills the promises made. The phrase “I am who I am” is transtemporal and can be read “I was who I was”, “I am who I am” and “I will be who I will be.” This is why in the Apocalypse, the Lord God is described as He who “was and is and is to come.” When Yahweh reveals the Name to Moses, He does so in the context of revealing the imminent fulfillment of the Abrahamic promise in Genesis 15. The enactment of the exodus is the public revelation of the God of Abraham as the Existent One, He who is sovereign in all things and does according to His will to be gracious to a sinful nation and judge the wicked. Moses tells Pharoah that God does these things precisely in order that “my Name might be proclaimed throughout all the Earth.” The tabernacle and temple is described as a place where God sets the Name. Israel may build altars wherever the “Name” is remembered. In Exodus 32-34, we read the most important text in the whole Hebrew Bible concerning the revelation of the Name. Israel has sinned against God and has made His dwelling personally in their midst dangerous. Moses ascends the mountain, the Lord tells him to enter into a cave, and we are told that the Lord “descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the Name of the Lord.”
The proclamation of that Name is a proclamation of God’s character governing His relationship with the creation and undergirding His gracious renewal of the covenant with Israel. He is full of steadfast love and faithfulness, pardoning iniquity, showing His grace to thousands of generations, but also judging iniquity to the fourth generation. This text is echoed throughout the prophets and the New Testament. The statement that Jesus is “full of grace and truth” echoes Exodus 34 in its Greek translation. God’s love is more ultimate than His judgment, but His judgment is a real and sobering reality to which we must attend. The revelation of this Name in divine glory transforms Moses. His being placed in the cave signifies death, going into the Earth. The hand of the Lord is upon him, creating a bond between the Lord and the prophet. And when Moses descends, his face radiates with the glory of God, so that Israel exhibits the very same fear they exhibited when God descended in glory on Sinai. Moses is veiled just as the Lord is veiled. The revelation of the Divine Name is such that it recreates the person by their being drawn into that Name, sharing in these qualities.
It is the promise of divine faithfulness which is most relevant in considering the theology of the sacraments. Throughout the scriptures, the “calling on the Name of the Lord” occurs in a liturgical and ritual context. In Genesis 12:8 and 13:4, Abraham calls upon the Name of the Lord at an altar. The same thing happens to Isaac in Genesis 26:5. Moreover, these altars are built in the immediate context of God revealing Himself and making a promise. When Elijah builds the altar at Carmel, he challenges the priests of Baal to “call on the name” of their god as he will “call upon the Name of the Lord.” In light of everything we have seen, “calling on the Name of the Lord” is best understood as a ritual expression of trust in the divine promises. God has promised to act in a specific way and He will always fulfill that promise.
The altar is a liturgical symbol of the holy mountain, after all, a ladder to heaven through which the glory-fire of God flows to Earth. It is at the altar that the person comes to meet God. The underlying logic of the sacrificial system depends on these expressions of faith. The ascension offering of Leviticus 1 symbolically re-enacts Israel’s exodus from Egypt and covenant with the Lord at Sinai. An Israelite who wishes to manifest or restore his relationship with the gracious Lord performs certain actions as the Lord commanded. Having done what the Lord commanded, He trusts that the Lord will do what He has promised to do when these commands are followed. To “call on the Name of the Lord” is to ask the Lord to fulfill the promises He has made. The Name which is called upon denotes this particular fidelity.
In Zephaniah, we are told that God will change the lip of the nations to be a pure lip. The word “lip” does not principally denote a national language. Its usage throughout the Hebrew Bible reveals the lip to be the instrument by which one calls upon one’s god. As David says of the false gods: “their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out, nor take their names on my lips.” Isaiah 19, prophesying the healing of Egypt and Assyria, Israel’s oppressor nations, states that four out of five cities will speak one lip with the redeemed Israel. And in Genesis 11, we read that the human family was both of one lip and one language. The twofold nature of the Babel-project was sacral and cultural. There was a tower (a temple and ladder to heaven) and a city. There was both a false profession and a false, undifferentiated unity. Both are scattered. God creates a plenitude of nations and turns the idolaters against one another. The builders sought to utilize this false religion to exalt themselves, giving themselves a “great Name.” It is in the aftermath of the collapse of the Babel-project that God promises Abraham a “great Name” in the city which is to come. Abraham builds a true altar and calls upon the Name of the true God.
Zephaniah 3 thus speaks of the gathering of the many-tongued nations around a single, true altar, at which the pure lip of divine worship is restored. All nations “call upon the Name of the Lord and serve Him with one accord.” (Zephaniah 3:9) In light of the literary unity of the Twelve Prophets (Hosea-Malachi), we see this to be a further exploration of the word given to Joel. God will “pour out” His “Spirit on all flesh.” It is on that day that “all who call on the Name of the Lord will be saved.” The Spirit of God descends to create a family of nations attached to Israel as the heirs of promise, a family brought into One Name and reborn in and through that Name. Through the Spirit, men “call upon the Name of the Lord” and are saved. Indeed, Joel 2:32 uses the very same word in both directions: “all who **call** on the Name of the Lord will be saved” and “among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord **calls.**” [In context of the Twelve, the survivors refer to people who are redeemed through the world’s being turned upside down. Being redeemed, they come to Zion and are made holy, in the direct presence of God.]
As Paul says in Hebrews 11, we are promised a beautiful inheritance. The possession of that inheritance comes through walking with God through faith. “Whoever would draw near to God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.” God has promised to forgive our sins when we repent. He has promised the indwelling Holy Spirit who will engrave the words of the Incarnate Word on our heart. Faith means trusting that God will be faithful to give everything He promised. To “draw near” to God means to enter into His presence. The “city which was to come” spoken of by Paul is the city suffused and irradiated with divine presence. It is that very city on Zion to which the nations who call on the Name of the Lord are gathered.
Baptism and Eucharist are the preeminent acts by which we liturgically “call upon the Name of the Lord.” In both cases, we have direct instructions from Jesus Christ. We are to baptize in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are to “do” the Lord’s Supper as the covenant memorial of Christ’s work. Faith undergirds baptism precisely because it is faith which trusts that God will do exactly what He said He would do in the baptismal waters. God said “if you do this, I will meet you here.” And it is in that meeting that we are given the new Name in His Name, reborn unto a resurrected and glorified life. Baptism is usually not attended by a dramatic and visible sign of God’s miraculous presence. Faith affirms that He will do and has done precisely what He promised in the waters of baptism. The same is true of the Eucharist. In the celebration of the Eucharist, the Church joins its work to the perfect work of Christ. Christ gathers up all creation into His Memory and wholly offers it to God the Father. That a human being made this perfect offering repairs the rupture which came in the fall. When joined to the offering of Christ, the ubiquitous imperfections in our offering die with Christ so that only the gold remains. The Church gathers up the manifold wisdom of God throughout the cosmos and offers it, in glorified, transfigured form, to God the Father, fulfilling the divine purpose given to the human family.

Psalm 80
Psalm 80
Prayer for Israel’s Restoration
To the leader: on Lilies, a Covenant. Of Asaph. A Psalm.
1 Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock! You who are enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth 2 before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh. Stir up your might, and come to save us!
3 Restore us, O God; let your face shine, that we may be saved.
4 O Lord God of hosts, how long will you be angry with your people’s prayers? 5 You have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in full measure. 6 You make us the scorn[a] of our neighbors; our enemies laugh among themselves.
7 Restore us, O God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved.
8 You brought a vine out of Egypt; you drove out the nations and planted it. 9 You cleared the ground for it; it took deep root and filled the land. 10 The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches; 11 it sent out its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the River. 12 Why then have you broken down its walls, so that all who pass along the way pluck its fruit? 13 The boar from the forest ravages it, and all that move in the field feed on it.
14 Turn again, O God of hosts; look down from heaven, and see; have regard for this vine, 15 the stock that your right hand planted.[b] 16 They have burned it with fire, they have cut it down;[c] may they perish at the rebuke of your countenance. 17 But let your hand be upon the one at your right hand, the one whom you made strong for yourself. 18 Then we will never turn back from you; give us life, and we will call on your name.
19 Restore us, O Lord God of hosts; let your face shine, that we may be saved.

Psalm 77
God’s Mighty Deeds Recalled
To the leader: according to Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.
1 I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, that he may hear me. 2 In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted. 3 I think of God, and I moan; I meditate, and my spirit faints.Selah
4 You keep my eyelids from closing; I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5 I consider the days of old, and remember the years of long ago. 6 I commune[a] with my heart in the night; I meditate and search my spirit:[b] 7 “Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable? 8 Has his steadfast love ceased forever? Are his promises at an end for all time? 9 Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?”Selah 10 And I say, “It is my grief that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”
11 I will call to mind the deeds of the Lord; I will remember your wonders of old. 12 I will meditate on all your work, and muse on your mighty deeds. 13 Your way, O God, is holy. What god is so great as our God? 14 You are the God who works wonders; you have displayed your might among the peoples. 15 With your strong arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.Selah
16 When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; the very deep trembled. 17 The clouds poured out water; the skies thundered; your arrows flashed on every side. 18 The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lit up the world; the earth trembled and shook. 19 Your way was through the sea, your path, through the mighty waters; yet your footprints were unseen. 20 You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Psalm 79
Psalm 79
Plea for Mercy for Jerusalem
A Psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, the nations have come into your inheritance; they have defiled your holy temple; they have laid Jerusalem in ruins. 2 They have given the bodies of your servants to the birds of the air for food, the flesh of your faithful to the wild animals of the earth. 3 They have poured out their blood like water all around Jerusalem, and there was no one to bury them. 4 We have become a taunt to our neighbors, mocked and derided by those around us.
5 How long, O Lord? Will you be angry forever? Will your jealous wrath burn like fire? 6 Pour out your anger on the nations that do not know you, and on the kingdoms that do not call on your name. 7 For they have devoured Jacob and laid waste his habitation.
8 Do not remember against us the iniquities of our ancestors; let your compassion come speedily to meet us, for we are brought very low. 9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; deliver us, and forgive our sins, for your name’s sake. 10 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Let the avenging of the outpoured blood of your servants be known among the nations before our eyes.
11 Let the groans of the prisoners come before you; according to your great power preserve those doomed to die. 12 Return sevenfold into the bosom of our neighbors the taunts with which they taunted you, O Lord! 13 Then we your people, the flock of your pasture, will give thanks to you forever; from generation to generation we will recount your praise.

Judges 6:25-40
25 That night the Lord said to him, “Take your father’s bull, the second bull seven years old, and pull down the altar of Baal that belongs to your father, and cut down the sacred pole[a] that is beside it; 26 and build an altar to the Lord your God on the top of the stronghold here, in proper order; then take the second bull, and offer it as a burnt offering with the wood of the sacred pole[b] that you shall cut down.” 27 So Gideon took ten of his servants, and did as the Lord had told him; but because he was too afraid of his family and the townspeople to do it by day, he did it by night.
Gideon Destroys the Altar of Baal
28 When the townspeople rose early in the morning, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the sacred pole[c] beside it was cut down, and the second bull was offered on the altar that had been built. 29 So they said to one another, “Who has done this?” After searching and inquiring, they were told, “Gideon son of Joash did it.” 30 Then the townspeople said to Joash, “Bring out your son, so that he may die, for he has pulled down the altar of Baal and cut down the sacred pole[d] beside it.” 31 But Joash said to all who were arrayed against him, “Will you contend for Baal? Or will you defend his cause? Whoever contends for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because his altar has been pulled down.” 32 Therefore on that day Gideon[e] was called Jerubbaal, that is to say, “Let Baal contend against him,” because he pulled down his altar.
33 Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east came together, and crossing the Jordan they encamped in the Valley of Jezreel. 34 But the spirit of the Lord took possession of Gideon; and he sounded the trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called out to follow him. 35 He sent messengers throughout all Manasseh, and they too were called out to follow him. He also sent messengers to Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, and they went up to meet them.
The Sign of the Fleece
36 Then Gideon said to God, “In order to see whether you will deliver Israel by my hand, as you have said, 37 I am going to lay a fleece of wool on the threshing floor; if there is dew on the fleece alone, and it is dry on all the ground, then I shall know that you will deliver Israel by my hand, as you have said.” 38 And it was so. When he rose early next morning and squeezed the fleece, he wrung enough dew from the fleece to fill a bowl with water. 39 Then Gideon said to God, “Do not let your anger burn against me, let me speak one more time; let me, please, make trial with the fleece just once more; let it be dry only on the fleece, and on all the ground let there be dew.” 40 And God did so that night. It was dry on the fleece only, and on all the ground there was dew.

Acts 2:37-47
The First Converts
37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and to the other apostles, “Brothers,[a] what should we do?” 38 Peter said to them, “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far away, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to him.” 40 And he testified with many other arguments and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” 41 So those who welcomed his message were baptized, and that day about three thousand persons were added. 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.
Life among the Believers
43 Awe came upon everyone, because many wonders and signs were being done by the apostles. 44 All who believed were together and had all things in common; 45 they would sell their possessions and goods and distribute the proceeds[b] to all, as any had need. 46 Day by day, as they spent much time together in the temple, they broke bread at home[c] and ate their food with glad and generous[d] hearts, 47 praising God and having the goodwill of all the people. And day by day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.

John 1:1-18
The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being 4 in him was life,[a] and the life was the light of all people. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. 8 He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. 9 The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.[b]
10 He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to what was his own,[c] and his own people did not accept him. 12 But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son,[d] full of grace and truth. 15 (John testified to him and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.’”) 16 From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. 17 The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God. It is God the only Son,[e] who is close to the Father’s heart,[f] who has made him known.

AKA The True Namers, the Baal Chem
In the Beginning was YHVH and He created all life.
The Holy Tetragrammaton has puzzled religious thinkers and mystical speculators about its simplicity, complexity, and its promise for climbing closer in our understanding of Him. Each letter was an engine of creation which pointed in different directions but was the whole. Although it was a sacred duty to meditate upon these things, there where hucksters who also worshiped the power of God but sought to manipulate it. Through rearranging the order of words so the combinations could unlock power, create magick.
These sorcerers were the Baal Shem; the thieves of knowledge and blasphemers with the ability to decode and remake all creation. They were true adepts of their time, recognizable in their attitude and execution of their magick.
As the years waned and cultures grew, interest in sorcery changed, new things were accepted and old ideas lost their flexibility. And so did the Baal Shem, with their ever ready YHVH words of power. Their rules went into the cold storage of old books written by magickally dry occultists. And so they were passed down, flittered about in discussions, and occasionally studied.
But old, powerful ideas do not die easy, they can spontaneously resurrect when the correct grail is found, the hollow idea which can be filled with the liquid of pure imagination and will. And so with one student of ancient occult, it happened, he saw the book and magazine lying side by side, open to the right pages.
On one page was YHVH, the other, AGCT. And then everything just fell into place like a puzzle assembling in reverse motion. Religious philosophy and genetic science were one and the same.
It wasn’t a complete cohesion, some puzzle pieces where in backwards, or the wrong way around. He would have to keep looking at the larger pattern, before finding the small inconsistencies. Of course changing one tiny piece altered the larger pattern, so it is hard work and the gains are few but one day it will be completed, and God’s face will be seen.
AGCT is the Tetragrammaton, the True Genome, the Unpronounceable Name of God. Our individual genomes are our True Names two-billion characters long, and by rewriting our True Names, we can cause a miraculous change, a new creation.
As above, so below is the running irony of the Baal Chem. It is the apotheosis of everything else that makes us human, but not actually us; deep in all the bone, blood, meat, gristle is where God sits, in the tiny arrangements of molecules, the delicate chains of deoxyribonucleic acid that exists innocuously in every living parcel. The most powerful information coherence in the world built of the most of fragile filigree. The most powerful being of the universe is the also one of the weakest.
Through our consensual landfill of waste religious orthodoxy and mythology we abandoned God, and through our embrace of science and experiment, we have found Him again. We have found him in all of us, the destiny in everything that lives.
And so the school of the Baal Chemistry was born, alchemically uniting old magick and modern science;  uniting Baal Shem and Genetics, and making the magick of God’s Chemicals.
Tumblr media
STATS
Baal Chemistry is in not in its infancy, but there are few practitioners, mostly in the Middle East, but migrating outwards. The basics are already down but the school is not going to progress unless the students learn Hebrew, or the science of molecular chemistry, or both. It doesn’t have to be to rigorous academic standards but the skills must be bought.
Although firmly rooted in Hebrew mysticism Baal Chemistry isn’t a Jewish school. Anyone with adept potential can learn the school.
Baal Chem relies on the sympathetic law of imitation. The law is quite simple, if anything appears like something else, it will act upon that something else. The Baal Chem use a symbolic version of the Law of Imitation, the Law of Names.
One side of the Baal Chemist’s genetic sorcery is that successful significant effects alter the DNA permanently which might throw off testing.
Blast Style: The Baal Chem can bobby trap scrolls to give blasts but it cause sickness or even cancer. Although the spells are slow they may be fatal over a long period of time.
Random Magick Domain: random magick is antithetical to Baal Chemistry. They might lack true diversity, but the Tetragrammatists can stack magicakal effects on top of each other unlike any other school.
Generate a minor charge: For four hours study the Bible, cabala, The Tetragrammaton, and other tracts of Jewish mysticism, or write an essay condensing your findings.
Generate a significant charge: There are no Significant charges only significant effects generated by actively manipulating the genetic code in yourself or others.
Generate a major charge: Discover a lost tract on the Tetragrammaton and be the first to study it. Discover a break though in genetics research, such as controlling the telomere cancer-cellular mitosis relationship. Work a change over ten years that works.
Taboo: Their work is sacred and may never be abandoned. If the Baal Chemist is ever interrupted from his significant works, they reset and have to be started over again.
The Baal Chem cannot touch any separated tissue or fluids of the target that are derived from injury. Touching blood and other tissues breaks taboo as the law of imitation is subverting by the law of contagion. If the Baal Chem gets splashed with a limited amount of tissue, he can scrub off to avoid taboo.
The temple of the Baal Chemist is generally as close to sterile as any scientific laboratory.
Unlike other adepts, The renamers can incorporate different spells into one, as long as they add up the time taken and roll their Magick: Baal Chemistry skill.
Tumblr media
Minor Baal Chemistry Formula Spells
A (one minor charge) The Baal Chemist can diagnose any living body and give a pretty accurate idea of what is going on at that time.
T (one minor charge) The Baal Chemist can correct minor imperfections, purge the body of toxins, exhaustion, and turn back the body’s clock limitedly for about as many months as the sum of the Magick: Ball Chemistry skill. This doesn’t regenerate lost limbs or heal damage, but it removes and smoothes imperfections like scars, wrinkles, and acne, hangovers, reduces infections, cleans the system, and improves the person’s sense of well being. A person with this spell heals 1 wound point has a +10% on all his first stress check afterwards.
The Baal Chemist will use T as a cleansing preparation before performing a procedure.
C (two minor charges) The Genetic Tetragrammatist can improve healing and assist in recovery by rolling his Magick: Baal Chemistry skill as if he was a doctor.
G (three minor charges) This minor blast spell makes the target’s body react as if it were invaded by foreign germs. The target suffers from a debilitating fever. Unless the character gets bed rest for as many days as the sum of the Magick: Baal Chemistry skill, he cannot heal through convalescence. If the character is actively physically stressing his body, he takes one wound point per roll whether successful or not.
Tumblr media
Significant Baal Chemistry formula effects
Targeted effects The significant effects do not have to be performed with the target present, but the Baal Chemist must at least have some knowledge of who the person is, to have some idea of the person’s True Name. Basically this: no name -10%, no picture -10%, no basic personality profile -10%, or no truthful history -10%. If the Baal Chemist can touch the victim, the penalty is reduced by 30%. The Baal Chem cannot increase his skill this way.
Rearranging Genomes The spells are basically formulations, long strings of the Tetragrammaton characters AG and CT written on paper scrolls. The paper can be worn as an amulet or scrunched up and swallowed as a pill. Placing the spell on unknowing or unwilling targets is a bit problematic but nothing that can be solving without some quick thinking, sneaky long-fingers or elbow-greasing thugs.
Once the spell is on the person’s body, it takes about an hour to ready or activate. Removing the scroll before then diffuses the magick but the scroll is still active.
For a safety measure the scrolls can actually described to target a specific person, who is listed Tetragrammatically in the formulation.
The Abundance of God’s Blessing (One days work) By spending one day working the Baal Chemist can regenerate one point of Body. This includes the slow re-growth of lost limbs and organs. This spell cannot replace damaged tissue just replace what is missing. Due to the complexity of tissue re-growth it might take many weeks or months before the area is restored.
The Passion of David (One days work) The target may re-roll one failed but non-magickal Soul-based skill and Speed-based skill roll.
A Visitation from the Angel of Betrayal (Two days work) The Baal Chemist can disrupt cellular activity by scribbling over the cell’s ability to control their own division, allowing them to multiply unstoppably into cancerous tissue.
After spell is cast, the opponent rolls his Body stat once per week. If it fails he takes the highest die in damage to his Body. This roll continues once per week until either the cancer kills the target or he successful convalesces, healing his Body back to full while not taking any damage. At which point the cancer has gone into permanent remission. Otherwise, if the cancer is detected within the first month, it can be safely removed.
The Legacy for Esau (Three days work) The next four Mind stat or skill checks are flip-flopped to their worst result. Obsession skills simply do not flip-flop.
The Sword of God (Three days work) The Sword of God is a strange blast spell. It invokes rage in anyone interacting with the target. No everyday things like buying from the market or speaking to people at your office, but when a roll is required. If the roll fails, it triggers their Rage Passion.
There isn’t much control over the situation, but at the wrong time with the right person, the results can be fatal. The person tagged with the Sword of God comes across as hiding crucial personal secrets, arrogant, and irritating. Triggering the anger doesn’t cause a stress check, only the results of it do.
The Sword of God works once.
Blessings on the House (Four days work) With this spell the ability to conceive a child is made better. Not only is the act blessed to be fruitful (the Fertility chance is half of Body), one partner gets a flip-flopping and the other, a re-roll, but the sex of the child can be chosen by the one who rolled highest. This scroll works once per sexual encounter.
The Lions of Daniel (Four days work) While the target is protected by the Lions of Daniel, it triggers or creates the Noble Passion of the animals for the benefit of the target, regardless of how they are feeling or trained to act. The animal certainly won’t attack but it might not let the character pass an area it was set to guard. Animals might even get playful and unintentionally hurt the target.
Wild dogs will not attack her, but they will maul clothing and bags to get to food, rats will climb and nuzzle their way inside her clothing. Once the spell is in effect it lasts twenty-four hours.
Loss of the Innocence of Eden (Five days work) This spell rewrites history recorded onto genetic memory, the target’s twenty billion character True Name. The successful roll can rearrange three failed and hard notches from any three chosen meters. The notches can be placed on any other gauge, Hard or Failed.
Perfecting the Perfect (Five days work) This scroll permanently removes any inherited genetic disease from a person unless the disease has already manifested. The disease’s harmfulness is eradicated and will not pass it along the target’s germline from that point.
Once the genetic malfunction has manifested, there is nothing the Baal Chem can do about it.
The Flesh of Methuselah (Six days work) This spell rejuvenates the target’s body effectively removing the debilitating effects of tissue damage, decrepitude, injury, and internally halving the person’s age. Externally there is little actual change but the spry person may act and thus look younger. Cosmetic surgery and extensive spa treatments may help further at this point.
This spell heals Wound Points equal to the sum of the Magick: Ball Chemistry roll.
Void of the Nameless (Seven days work) The dead are generally beyond the purview of the Baal Chemist. If you do not have a body you have no True Name, their lives are over and thus Nameless. With Void of the Nameless, a possessed person can regain control over his or her body by imprisoning the demon within their mind, and like an oyster, form a psychic pearl around the irritant.
This spell forces the demon to roll possession to escape or be trapped in the victim’s mind as he regains control. It is crushed underneath the awakening mind, trapped. The victim may have dim dreams.
Unless the demon has some magickal means of escaping it is trapped in some disused and sound-proofed basement of the victim’s mind. Over time the entity just decays into oblivion.
The Void of the Nameless is also proof against possession attempts in the first place. The possessing entity just smacks into the target’s body like it was solid.
Once the demon is imprisoned, it is there permanently. The spell gives twenty-four hours protection once activated.
The Lamentations of Solomon (Eight days work) The spell allows the target to increase his Mind and Soul stat at a rate of one experience point per Stat point. The maximum number of purchases is equal to the sum of the Magick: Baal Chemistry roll. This spell only raises the stats, not the skills.
Tumblr media
Major Baal Chemistry Effects Change one species into another, read God’s will in someone’s genome, eradicate aging, raise stats to superhuman levels, create the perfect killer immune system, grow a perfect clone body in a few hours, permanently remove all genetic imperfections and disease from a person.

Reading for December 9th                  2 Kings 10
This definitely sounds strange, but I would have liked to meet Jehu. Jehu is extremely bold. Certifiably nuts, but bold nonetheless. God commissioned Jehu to remove His enemies from the land, and that takes a “special” type of person. It makes me think of Ehud back in the book of Judges. When the land of Israel has become so corrupt that God can’t stand it anymore, He sends in warriors. Men and women who are prepared to fight and die for the Lord. They are not there to negotiate or to convert, but to sift the wheat from the chaff.
Jehu obliterates Ahab’s family, extended family, friends, officials, and priests from the earth. Then he finds those who would be allied with Ahab and kills them, too. And this was committed “just as the Lord had promised through Elijah.” God has no tolerance for evil.
Next, Jehu moves onto the priests and followers of Baal. In a very sly move, he goads all the followers into what seems to be a celebration at the temple of Baal. Then, once assembled, he and his soldiers kill all of them. He destroys and burns the temple, but makes one important mistake. Jehu keeps the gold idols. God ordered complete destruction. Also, Jehu had a heart issue. He didn’t serve God with all of it, and continued to sin.
When it’s all said and done, Revelation will be like this. Jesus will come back to separate the wheat from the chaff. Judgment will come and the time of negotiation will have ended. Today, there is an incredible amount of Christian writing on the love, grace, peace, and comfort of God. As there should be. However, we mustn’t forget that God is also righteous, fair, and just. These seemingly opposite characteristics are equally and perfectly balanced both in God and in Jesus.
Revelation 19:11-16
Then I saw heaven opened, and a white horse was standing there. Its rider was named Faithful and True, for he judges fairly and wages a righteous war. His eyes were like flames of fire, and on his head were many crowns. A name was written on him that no one understood except himself. He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his title was the Word of God. The armies of heaven, dressed in the finest of pure white linen, followed him on white horses. From his mouth came a sharp sword to strike down the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He will release the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty, like juice flowing from a winepress. On his robe at his thigh was written this title: King of all kings and Lord of all lords.

even writing from jail, Paul is able to communicate with us in his Letters
to unveil spiritual truth.
Today’s reading of the Scriptures from the New Testament is the 3rd chapter of the Letter of Ephesians:
All this is exactly why I, Paul, am a prisoner of Jesus the Anointed, His representative to the outsider nations. You have heard, haven’t you, how God appointed me to bring you His message of grace? And how the mystery was made known to me in a revelation? I briefly wrote about it earlier. When you read what I have written, you will be better able to understand the depth of my insight into the mystery of the Anointed One, a mystery that has never before been shown to past generations. Only now are these secrets being revealed to God’s chosen emissaries and prophets through the Holy Spirit. Specifically, the mystery is this: by trusting in the good news, the Gentile outsiders are becoming fully enfranchised members of the same body, heirs alongside Israel, and beneficiaries of the promise that has been fulfilled through Jesus the Anointed.
I became a servant and preacher of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace as He exercised His amazing power over me. I cannot think of anyone more unworthy to this cause than I, the least of the least of the saints. But here I am, a grace-made man, privileged to be an echo of His voice and a preacher to all the nations of the riches of the Anointed One, riches that no one ever imagined. I am privileged to enlighten all of Adam’s descendants to the mystery concealed from previous ages by God, the Creator of all, through Jesus the Anointed. Here’s His objective: through the church, He intends now to make known His infinite and boundless wisdom to all rulers and authorities in heavenly realms. This has been His plan from the beginning, one that He has now accomplished through the Anointed One, Jesus our Lord. His faithfulness to God has made it possible for us to have the courage we need and the ability to approach the Father confidently. So I ask you not to become discouraged because I am jailed for speaking out on your behalf. In fact, my suffering is something that brings you glory.
It is for this reason that I bow my knees before the Father, after whom all families in heaven above and on earth below receive their names, and pray:
Father, out of Your honorable and glorious riches, strengthen Your people. Fill their souls with the power of Your Spirit so that through faith the Anointed One will reside in their hearts. May love be the rich soil where their lives take root. May it be the bedrock where their lives are founded so that together with all of Your people they will have the power to understand that the love of the Anointed is infinitely long, wide, high, and deep, surpassing everything anyone previously experienced. God, may Your fullness flood through their entire beings.
Now to the God who can do so many awe-inspiring things, immeasurable things, things greater than we ever could ask or imagine through the power at work in us, to Him be all glory in the church and in Jesus the Anointed from this generation to the next, forever and ever. Amen.
The Letter of Ephesians, Chapter 3 (The Voice)
Today’s paired chapter of the Testaments is the 7th chapter of the book of Jeremiah about the importance of honesty before God and others:
“But instead, you are clinging to lies and illusions that are worthless.”
[Jeremiah 7]
The word of the Eternal came to Jeremiah.
Eternal One: Go now and take a stand for Me at the entrance to My temple. Proclaim there My message. Tell all the people of Judah who enter these gates to worship the Eternal to stop and listen to the word of the Eternal. Tell them this is what I, the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies and God of Israel, have to say:
“Change your ways and stop what you are doing, and I will let you live in this land. Do not rely on the misguided words, ‘The temple of the Eternal, the temple of the Eternal, the temple of the Eternal,’ as if the temple’s presence alone will protect you. But if you genuinely change your ways and stop what you are doing; if you deal with each other fairly; if you don’t oppress foreigners, orphans, and widows; if you don’t shed the blood of the innocent in this land; and if you don’t practice the self-destructive worship of other gods; then I will let you live forever in this land I promised your ancestors long ago.
“But instead, you are clinging to lies and illusions that are worthless. Do you think you can steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, make offerings to Baal, and chase after other gods and still expect Me to protect you? Do you think all it takes is for you to run back to Me in this house, which is called by My name, and say, ‘We’re safe now’? Does this somehow make it all right to do these vile things in front of Me? Do you think this house, which is called by My name, is a den of thieves? I see what you’re doing.
“Go and take notice of what happened in Shiloh, the place where I first met your ancestors in the tabernacle that bore My name. See what I did in response to the wickedness of My people, Israel. Now, because of all the evil you have done, and because when I spoke to you time and again you never listened, and because when I called your name you never answered, watch what I will do to this house which bears My name, this sacred place I gave to you and your fathers. I will do to this temple, where you have put your trust, what I did to Shiloh all those years ago. I will throw you from My presence, just as I did to all your kinsmen in the Northern Kingdom, the descendants of Ephraim.”
(to Jeremiah) Don’t pray or plead for these people. No matter how badly you want to come to Me on their behalf, don’t bother. For I won’t hear such cries from you. Can’t you see what’s happening in the villages throughout Judah and even in the streets of Jerusalem? The children gather the firewood, the fathers tend the fire, and the mothers bake the bread for the so-called queen of heaven! The people pour out drink offerings in honor of other gods as if to spite Me. What they are doing doesn’t hurt me; it only hurts them, to their own disgrace. Now hear what I, the Eternal Lord, declare: “The heat of My anger will pour out on this land, on man and beast, on the trees of the field and the fruit of the soil. My wrath will burn through this place and not be quenched.
This is what the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies and God of Israel, has to say:
Eternal One: Treat your burnt offerings the way you treat other sacrifices. Go ahead and eat the meat yourselves. I won’t have any part of it. When I freed your ancestors from slavery in Egypt, burnt offerings and sacrifices were not something I required of them. I wanted them to trust Me and obey My voice. In those early days, I told them, “I will be your God, and you will be My people. Follow Me every step of the way into a life that is good.” But they didn’t trust Me. They didn’t obey My voice. They refused to listen to Me. Instead they followed the plans of their own stubborn hearts. Each step was a step backward, not forward. From the time your ancestors left Egypt until now, I have shown them the way to a better life. Day after day, I sent all of My servants, the prophets, to speak the truth. But did any of them listen or pay attention? Did they change their ways? No, they only hardened their resolve to go their own way. Each generation has done more evil than the generation before.
(to Jeremiah) This is how I want you to speak to the people—say it all, don’t hold anything back—but they won’t hear you. Your voice will call throughout the land, but no one will answer you. And so you will say to them, “This is the nation that dared not obey the voice of the Eternal, their one True God. This is the people who would not be taught.” Truth has died and disappeared from their very lips.
Shave your head and throw your hair away, for it is time to mourn.
Climb the hills and grieve for the darkness has gone too far.
The Eternal has rejected His faithless people;
He has forsaken this generation that has stirred up His wrath.
For the people of Judah have done what is plainly evil right in front of Me. They have brought their revolting idols into My temple! They have desecrated this place that stands in honor of My name. They have built shrines to other gods at Topheth, the garbage dump in the valley of Ben-hinnom, where they sacrifice their own sons and daughters and burn them in the fire to dark and pagan gods. I never taught them to do such unspeakable evil; it never even crossed My mind. But I tell you this: the days are coming when that place will no longer be known as Topheth, or the garbage dump in the valley of Ben-hinnom. But it will be called the valley of Slaughter, for they will bury the bodies of those who sacrifice children there until there is no more room. The remains of these wicked people will feed the vultures of the sky and wild animals of the earth because no one will be there to scare them away. I will silence the sounds of laughter and joy from the villages of Judah to the streets of Jerusalem. Even the joy of a wedding will not be heard in this land of ruin.
The Book of Jeremiah, Chapter 7 (The Voice)
A link to my personal reading of the Scriptures for friday, August 20 of 2021 with a paired chapter from each Testament of the Bible along with Today’s Proverbs and Psalms
A post by John Parsons about (A new covenant of grace):
The Torah of Moses teaches that a defect-free male lamb should be sacrificed and roasted at the appointed time every year, eaten with matzah and bitter herbs, as a memorial of the redemption from Egypt (Num. 9:2, Deut. 16:1-8) -- yet today, after the ministry and sacrificial death of Yeshua as the Lamb of God, we no longer perform the sacrificial rite of the Passover given to the Levites on behalf of Israel. We do not do this because we have a greater priesthood based on the sworn oath of God that predates the Levitical priesthood in the life of the Messiah (Psalm 110:4). This is explained in the Book of Hebrews, chapter seven, which explains that "if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron? But when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well" (Heb. 7:11-12). The bottom line is that the new covenant of God centers on the sacrificial ministry of Yeshua as our Great High Priest, and this covenant provided a new way that was "not according to the covenant made with the fathers at Sinai after the Exodus" to be in right relationship with God (Jer. 31:31-34; Heb. 8:1-13). "And when Messiah had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. For by one offering He has perfected forever those being sanctified" (Heb. 10:14).
So it is clear - if you believe the message of the gospel - that God has abolished the role of animal sacrifice in the law of Moses through the death of his Son as our eternal atonement (Heb. 9:12-15). "Because the law (of sacrifice) made nothing perfect, a better hope is introduced, and that is how we draw near to God" (Heb. 7:19). The veil of separation has been torn in the body of our Lord (Matt. 27:51; Mark 15:38; Heb. 10:12); and through the intercession and mediation of Yeshua, we now have direct access to the presence of God by faith (Heb. 4:16). The great prophesy of Caiaphas was fulfilled: " it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish" (John 11:49-50). Yeshua himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but for the whole world" (1 John 2:1-2; Rom. 3:25). As the Lawgiver of Reality, the LORD has the power and authority to introduce a "new covenant," and indeed were it not for that great blessing we would have no means of eternal redemption under the law. Yeshua "takes away the first covenant that he might establish the second" (see Heb. 10:4-18).
But what about other aspects of the law of Moses besides sacrifices? To begin answering that question, we must distinguish between the idea of "law" and the idea of "covenant." The law, or Torah, of the LORD means something more than the words of the covenant given at Sinai. Torah is rightly understood as God's direction or teaching regarding how to be in right relationship with him. That is the Apostle Paul's point in the book of Galatians where he points to Abraham as one who kept God's Torah 400 years before the time of Sinai. Abraham obeyed God's Torah before the time of giving of the covenant at Sinai! That said, there is a relationship between a divine "covenant" (or "agreement") and the law, though the idea of covenant is more basic, and Torah is understood as our response to the underlying covenant. Torah, then, is a "function word" of covenant, expressing our obligations - ritual, moral, spiritual, etc., - in relation to that covenant. Where this may get confusing is that while both Moses' teaching is Torah, and Yeshua's teaching is Torah, and while there is overlap and continuity in moral and spiritual application, the Sinai covenant and the covenant of the Cross at Zion are mutually exclusive ways to attain atonement before God, and that is why followers of Yeshua do not offer animal sacrifices for their sins, etc., even though the sacrificial system itself assuredly bore witness to the coming of the great Lamb of God (Rom. 3:21; Num. 28:3). The same point can be made regarding other aspects of the teachings of Moses such as various religious and civil laws, laws of warfare and capital punishment, laws regarding "clean and unclean" (ritual purity), dietary law, and so on. The "weightier" matters of the law given at Sinai are preserved and incorporated into the new covenant, as the law provided a "pattern" or "analogy" of what was to come (Heb. 10:1), yet the ritual laws of sacrifice are now abolished by the new and better covenant of the Messiah (see Heb. 8:6).
So you see, followers of Messiah must be philosophers of sorts, that is, those who think deeply about the underlying meaning and purpose of God as revealed in the Scriptures. After all, Yeshua often taught in parables and used metaphors in his teaching (Matt. 13:35; John 6:35, 8:12, 10:9-11, etc.). When he said that he was “the door,” he didn’t expect us to look for a door knob on him (John 10:7-9)! When he warned his followers about the “leaven” of the religious leaders, he chided his disciples for thinking about material bread (Matt. 16:5-12). Indeed Yeshua was often exasperated with his followers for missing the point (Matt. 15:6; Luke 24:25-26). He regularly spoke of the "mysteries of the kingdom of God" (Luke 8:10; Mark 4:11). He taught his followers how to see the meaning of the redemption, of true healing, and of God's kingdom. "The wisdom of God is given in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world for our glory" (1 Cor. 2:7; Rom. 16:25-26). We must learn to reason analogically and rightly divide (ὀρθοτομέω, i.e., "cut straight") the word of truth (2 Tim. 2:15). "We impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual" (1 Cor. 2:13). We discern the "weightier" matters of the Torah to center on God's love for his people and his salvation given in Yeshua our Messiah. He is the Light of the world, the Bread of Life, and our Good Shepherd. Amen: He is the way and the truth and the life of God given for us. [Hebrew for Christians]

Today’s message (Days of Praise) from the Institute for Creation Research
August 20, 2021
The Lord Jehovah
“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.” (Isaiah 12:2)
The English name usually written LORD in English Bibles stems from the Hebrew word Yahweh, the meaning of which cannot be fully put into words. Although scholars differ (some even claiming there is no real meaning to the word at all), the consensus is that it seems to be a compound of the three tenses of the Hebrew verb “to be,” implying the ever-living nature of God to which Christ was referring when He said, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty” (Revelation 1:8). Note also the similar implications in God’s announcement of Himself to Moses: “And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am” (Exodus 3:14).
On 49 special occasions (seven times seven), the name Jehovah is contracted to Jah. Many consider this to be an abbreviation of Jehovah, but no satisfactory explanation as to why it is so used has been offered. Perhaps a better suggestion is that this name is the present tense of the verb “to be,” and therefore the name Jah emphasizes the present activity of the Lord. In nearly all occurrences, the passages are strengthened by noting the present work of God. The first usage of the term Jah is found in Miriam’s Song upon deliverance from Pharaoh’s army and the Red Sea. “The LORD [Jah] is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation” (Exodus 15:2).
On several occasions, such as in our text, we see that the two names are combined, celebrating both the present and future deliveries of Jah Jehovah. “Trust ye in the LORD [Jehovah] for ever: for in the LORD [Jah] JEHOVAH is everlasting strength” (Isaiah 26:4). JDM

Truly Respected
“Then those who feared the LORD spoke with each other, and the LORD listened to what they said. In his presence, a scroll of remembrance was written to record the names of those who feared him and loved to think about him.” Mal 4:16CEV
Have you ever walked into a room and felt the room hush? Like everyone had been talking about you. Your sudden entrance stymied their flow of words. I can testify, it’s a very uncomfortable feeling. Back in the days before Christ, this frequently happened to me.
Malachi was relating to a church group of people who were constantly talking behind God’s back, so to speak— talking against the Lord. Obviously, from all God was saying in this chapter, they were talking smack— ‘what good does it pay to serve Jesus.’ This wasn’t a church after the cross, knowing the mercies of God. Nor was it a people experiencing regular miraculous healings. As God’s current church of the day, they’s lost all respect for Him. Have we done any better?
What they had experienced— God talked to them through His prophets, as they’d asked Him to do at Mount Sinai. They in turn didn’t believe His true prophets and disrespected Him. He’d allowed them to endure repeatedly being captured. As satan as does, everything was taken away from them for punishment. Yahweh God had rescued them, time and again,  as they cried for His help. Did they learn to appreciate Him alone? No!
Churches are filled with people who put in their Sunday service Christianity. Others work committees, while not having any relationship  with Jesus Christ. Our preacher prays for other preachers, who’ve never made Jesus the Lord of their lives. These preachers are equivalent to the Israelite priests.
Are you aware, the book of Malachi is the last communication besides the Maccabees, (writings which aren’t accepted as scriptural canon,) God had with the Israelites for several hundred years before Jesus? People had sunk so low, Yahweh tired of talking to them.
Yet, there was this group— These people didn’t berate God. They loved Him; looked forward to His coming; even, talked to each other about His goodness. They truly respected the Lord, as Lord Most High God.
In Elijah’s day, God told him, “Yet I will leave 7,000 in Israel, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal…” 1King 19:18NASB. In Daniel’s time, we know of several knees who didn’t bow— Nehemiah, Ezra, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. In our day there are many who haven’t bowed to the multiple gods, we are offered to worship.
God spares His true people in the time of trouble. Daniel survived the lions untouched. Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah weren’t burnt in the fiery furnace. Nehemiah overcame, while rebuilding the wall. Ezra cleaned out the temple. Through God miracles do happen.
My cousin called. Her sole purpose in calling was to praise the Lord for several answers to prayer. As she praised God for her son’s salvation, I heard in my heart— Mal. 3:17CEV “Then the LORD All-Powerful said: You people are precious to me, and when I come to bring justice, I will protect you, just as parents protect an obedient child.”
“…They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death” Rev 12:11ESV. What are you talking to others about? The President? Congress? Senate? Evening news? Russia conspiracy? Mexican wall? Your Savior? Your testimony? Miracles God’s performed? Joys of salvation? There are promises for respecting and testifying to the goodness of the Lord our God. It’s your choice. You choose.
PRAYER: Lord Most High I rejoice for all You’ve done for me. Thank You for being my Protector, Comforter, and Shield. Help these readers give You the glory You deserve, in Jesus’ name I pray.

Tuesday: Reflection on the Twenty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Roman Catholic Proper 23 Revised Common Lectionary Proper 18
Complementary 2 Kings 18:9-18
There are parallel passages at Isaiah 36:1-3 and 2 Chronicles 32:1-9.
In the fourth year of King Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of King Hoshea son of Elah of Israel, King Shalmaneser of Assyria came up against Samaria, besieged it, and at the end of three years, took it. In the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of King Hoshea of Israel, Samaria was taken. The king of Assyria carried the Israelites away to Assyria, settled them in Halah, on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes, because they did not obey the voice of the Lord their God but transgressed his covenant—all that Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded; they neither listened nor obeyed.
In the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, King Sennacherib of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah and captured them. King Hezekiah of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; withdraw from me; whatever you impose on me I will bear.” The king of Assyria demanded of King Hezekiah of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold. Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord and in the treasuries of the king's house. At that time Hezekiah stripped the gold from the doors of the temple of the Lord, and from the doorposts that King Hezekiah of Judah had overlaid and gave it to the king of Assyria. The king of Assyria sent the Tartan, the Rab-saris, and the Rabshakeh with a great army from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They went up and came to Jerusalem. When they arrived, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is on the highway to the Fuller's Field. When they called for the king, there came out to them Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who was in charge of the palace, and Shebnah the secretary, and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder.
Semi-continuous Hebrew Scripture from the Latter Prophets: Jeremiah 19
Thus said the Lord: Go and buy a potter's earthenware jug. Take with you some of the elders of the people and some of the senior priests, and go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom at the entry of the Potsherd Gate, and proclaim there the words that I tell you. You shall say: Hear the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I am going to bring such disaster upon this place that the ears of everyone who hears of it will tingle. Because the people have forsaken me, and have profaned this place by making offerings in it to other gods whom neither they nor their ancestors nor the kings of Judah have known; and because they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent, and gone on building the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire as burnt-offerings to Baal, which I did not command or decree, nor did it enter my mind; Therefore the days are surely coming, says the Lord, when this place shall no more be called Topheth, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of Slaughter. And in this place I will make void the plans of Judah and Jerusalem, and will make them fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life. I will give their dead bodies for food to the birds of the air and to the wild animals of the earth. And I will make this city a horror, a thing to be hissed at; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss because of all its disasters. And I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and all shall eat the flesh of their neighbors in the siege, and in the distress with which their enemies and those who seek their life afflict them.
Then you shall break the jug in the sight of those who go with you, and shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: So will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, so that it can never be mended. In Topheth they shall bury until there is no more room to bury. Thus will I do to this place, says the Lord, and to its inhabitants, making this city like Topheth. And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be defiled like the place of Topheth—all the houses upon whose roofs offerings have been made to the whole host of heaven, and libations have been poured out to other gods.¹
When Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, he stood in the court of the Lord's house and said to all the people: Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I am now bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their necks, refusing to hear my words.
¹Stephen refers to this verse in Acts 7:42, part of his defense before the Sanhedrin ( Acts 7:1-53).
Semi-continuous Psalm 2
Why do the nations conspire,  and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves,  and the rulers take counsel together,  against the Lord and his anointed,¹ saying, “Let us burst their bonds asunder,  and cast their cords from us.”
He who sits in the heavens laughs;  the Lord has them in derision. Then he will speak to them in his wrath,  and terrify them in his fury, saying, “I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.”
I will tell of the decree of the Lord: He said to me, “You are my son;  today I have begotten you.² Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,  and the ends of the earth your possession. You shall break them with a rod of iron,  and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.”
Now therefore, O kings, be wise;  be warned, O rulers of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear,  with trembling³ kiss his feet, or he will be angry, and you will perish in the way;  for his wrath is quickly kindled. Happy are all who take refuge in him.
¹These verses are quoted in Acts 4:23-31, where the believers pray for boldness. ²Paul quotes this verse when he is preaching at Antioch of Pisidia (Acts 13:26-34) ³This phrase is repeated in what scholars think is an early hymn found in Philippians 2:5-11.
New Testament Epistle Lesson: 1 Timothy 4:6-16
If you put these instructions before the brothers and sisters, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the sound teaching that you have followed. Have nothing to do with profane myths and old wives’ tales. Train yourself in godliness, for, while physical training is of some value, godliness is valuable in every way, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and struggle, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all people, especially of those who believe.
These are the things you must insist on and teach. Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. Until I arrive, give attention to the public reading of scripture, to exhorting, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you through prophecy with the laying on of hands by the council of elders. Put these things into practice, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress. Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and your hearers.

“Fishers of men”
The Bible study Saturday on a Friday night!!!! 
Why? Because God is my priority not a convenience......
Praise God on high !!!!!!!! 
Book of Matthew 4:18-22 
a. Yeshua Jesus Christ walked by Sea of Galilee 
b. The first disciples are introduced 
c. Disciples leave all and follow Yeshua Jesus Christ  
Wow!!! Can I just say this one of my most favorite verses in the book of Matthew.  It truly warms my heart “Fishers of men”.   There are a couple of verses I just love of the Bible:....”no old wine in new wine skins, fishers of men, pick up your bed and walk, from the fire not smelling of smoke, and let thy will be done.”  God is soooo good to us. I am so very much in love.  I have never felt so complete.  Sooo whole.  Soo loved. Soo put together, then when I have truly loved God with all my heart, mind, and soul; which is what God wants.  I don’t feel the urge or need for anything else, except to learn more, grow more, and truly love God; but love God right.  We all know people who say they love someone or love something, but loving someone or something right is a whole other story...am I right or am I right???!!!!
(a) Yeshua Jesus Christ, walking by the Sea of Galilee walks upon two brothers; (b)Peter and Andrew.  Now, bare with me y'all cause its about to get truthful and a bit crazy......
(b)Who was Peter? Peter was born Simon.  Yeshua gave Peter his name. Many suggest when Peter was baptized/reborn and followed Yeshua, the changing of his name was an outward symbolism of his covenant with Yeshua/God. Many Christian’s change their name to this day in the same practice/symbolism.  Fun personal fact, I too did change my name when I became reborn. What was it before Marie? To the 1st person  who guesses correctly I will personally buy you and mail out to you; your own copy of the study Bible that I use. Yes there is a catch. 1. email me at [email protected].  your guess 2. Don’t worry, just guess the first name I was born with. 3. You can not be someone who knows me before the year 2008. 4. You can’t be someone who knows me during/from my military service. Email me your guess(nothing nasty either please) and I will mail you, your own free hardcover study Bible.  Deadline for this guessing game will be Feb 12, 2019 at 12pm mountain standard time. Blessings.  
Now, back to Peter.  Peter was a flawed man. Say what? Yes, Flawed.  Say what???!!! Well, he doubted, he cursed, he yelled, he had a temper; so bad Yeshua even scolded him on several occasions....Later Peter even he lied, denied knowing/following Yeshua. Don’t believe me? Well, we shall see later in the book of Matthew.  But, like someone else who was awesome yet flawed, and I quote,” I can not tell a lie”.  (https://www.simplybible.com/f649-toi-adventures-of-peter.htm)
What does this say to me?  Well, what I think we can all take from this is/are several things:  Yeshua/God never expected us to be prefect.  God knew we would fail from time to time.  But, God wants us to try to the best of our abilities.  God knows our true heart.  Later, we will review how even after Peter denied knowing  Yeshua, he felt guilty, he repented, and was forgiven.  Peter went on to make things “right” by continuing God’s work for the reminder of his life here on earth.  I say this, because I know many out there believe they have done too much wrong to be forgiven.  Many out there are condemned time after time by those closes to them for their short comings and or failures, but I say to you the same as Yeshua says.  Give your life over to God, with a humble and open heart, receive Christ into your life, and be saved.  Receive grace.  Receive life ever lasting.  Be made whole as God intended not as the world disrupted.
And to others who are judgy-wudgy...well, stop. Please stop.  Someone who is being judged harshly, may be on their last leg towards redemption and harsh words can be what's holding them back from truly receiving Christ into their life.  So many are  about to take their life, based off of hearing harsh words repeating over and over in their head.  There are people out there this very second, who feel worthless and like their life is over;  a kind word from us could be what saves them.  Now am I saying be a fool? No.  Am I saying be deceived? No.  But, sometimes it is true that some need to hit rock bottom. (AKA, be turnover to themselves) In order to understand what they have done to their life and the life of to others.  Maybe God is using us to be the one that will help lead them to Christ.  So, don’t reject a hand reaching up for help. But, don’t take a hand that is aiming to drag you down with them. 
 The only way to truly know what action to take is too:  pray, fast, and ask God.  I recommend 3 days, but God sometimes answers immediately.  Watch for signs.  Listen for God’s voice. And take action or have peace in what must happen.
(b)Andrew, Peter’s brother;   Andrew is said to have had tremendous courage, very humble, and later a Saint (by some religions). I wonder why Andrew is not mention as much as others in the Bible?  This leaves me hoping that some where there is a lost Book of Andrew, just waiting to be found.  I guess on this one; only time will tell.   But, the declaration of Andrew being a courageous man, in my mind solidifies the fact that as Christians we are not called to be flies on the wall.  We are made to be courages ourselves.  We are made to take ground for God’s kingdom, hold that ground, and expand that ground. Why? Well, even although Andrew is not mention much in the Bible he did go on to build churches and spread the “good news” of God.  Andrew was indeed courageous not only with his intentions, but life of direction.  Andrew was a warrior for God. That is amazing!!!!!  Maybe because of my military back ground, but the more and more I actually study the Bible and those of the Bible; no where have a read of God’s disciples being weak, quite, or/ compromisers. (https://www.biblestudytools.com/classics/lightfoot-sermons-preached-on-special-occasions/andrew-simon-peters-brother.html)
 It honestly hurts me to say this, but:   Look around today, do we not see compromising to evil?  Just the other day in the news I saw an article of church leaders “blessing” an abortion clinic....yes...look it up I don’t lie.  Now, there is nothing in me that will ever come close to believing, the one who gave us breath of life, would think it is anyones “choice” to take away a life.  Especially, not out of self defense.  And, Yes; I’m going to put one more step into this and say, “God brings life, blessings, abundance, grace, mercy, love, healing, and promise; to name a few.....The devil brings death, destruction, pain, agony, misery, death, lies, deceives, manipulates, and so on....” 
That being said, those who are “blessing abortions, having abortions, celebrating the choice of an abortion........” Those person’s are not of God and not on God’s side.  I know many are going to bring up trauma cases, medical cases etc... believe me I know, but it as boils down to ...God’s side or the devils.  So pick a side..  Furthermore, anyone who has study spiritual warfare, will tell you, an abortion is a blood sacrifice to Baal. Who or what is Baal?  Well, there is a ton of information out there, but this is a good link below.  BTW, pray for NY, apparently there is an alter being put up for this evil.  And what did NY just pass, abortions until birth.... coincidence? I think not. (http://www.ancientdestructions.com/baalbek-temple-human-sacrifice-worship-baal/)
This leads me to ask another question, why are not more churches speaking out against this evil?  Why are many churches content in letting this happen? Oh, some want to say many churches are not letting this happen???? Ok, well I have not seen nor heard of any huge name churches..... protesting, televising publically outrage, or leading protest against this murder of children in the womb, now just before birth in some states of America.  But, many church leaders protested birth control pills being force payment in medical care for their employees!!!!  So is it about the money?????? Or faith??? or relationship with God???? Many churches came out to speak against those who are trying to stop abortions......as I sip my tea. Yes, I said it.   I did an internet search and I could find maybe a handful of church leaders speaking against this murder of children, but the best-est /largest churches out there......nothing!?! Shame, Shame, Shame on to them.  
Church leaders are supposed to be the moral compass of our national and yet, many/most remain quiet. SHAME! Church leaders are supposed to have God as the head of their church. Yet, they take no actions, SHAME.  Church leaders are supposed to educated and advise their flock, yet they rather collect, deflect, and claim to praise God while turning a blind eye to the slaughter of the innocent; SHAME.  Why? 501c3.  Which is something I vowed to God I would never be.  501c3, which I have promised with my whole heart I would speak against.  What is 501c3? Below is a link I found the most helpful to explain. Please take the time and read it through. (http://hushmoney.org/501c3-facts.htm). So let’s just call the 501c3 churches what they really are; hang outs, social meet-ups, and sadly in some cases underground routes of evil.  For those that are in their feelings now; the truth does not care about your feelings.   That being said, it is my understanding in order to broadcast, a church must be 501c3 compliant.  So for those churches, I have been taught God is a law and order God.  God, maybe granting these broadcasting churches grace. Although the grace period may/ will be over once the 501c3 is abolished and those churches choose....yes choose; to remain under the 501c3 yoke.  Addiontionally, what others are yoked with 501c3....Planned Parenthood; among others.  What organization recently paid thousands and millions to law makers who support abortions, write abortion laws, and even donated for abortion activist groups....Planned Parenthood.  Who have openly admitted to charging a high praise for the sale of aborted fetal organs/parts and tissues...Planned Parenthood.  I could go on and on.....  
Let me guess, so are going to say....but Planned Parenthood help diagnosed cancer in the breast or testicles of xyandz...ok thats good...great even.....  But after they helped whoever with whatever......they still did evil.  God is a black and white God.  That means no grey zone.  One cannot kill, murder, lie, deceive;  then too claim to be a helper of the people to communities.  Furthermore, allowing yourself to be deceived is treasonous to God. So make a choice. For God or against God, but you cannot have both.
Continuing on, Yeshua Jesus Christ while walking comes upon (Simon)Peter and Andrew (brothers).  (c)Yeshua says,” Follow me and I will make you fisher’s of men”(Old Testament).  Study Bible states,” Follow me, and I will , make you fish for people.”  In either case, both book states, immediately the brothers dropped their nets and left their father; to follow Yeshua.  Old Testament adds the brother left the ship too.  Now, I believe we all are aware how important parents and caring for ones parents was in Biblical times, not to mention a family business.  Yet, these two brothers, left all they had, all they had known (possibly), and followed Yeshua???!!!! Yes!!!!  I am forever amazed how free someone must have been in the presence to Yeshua; to just know without a doubt, they were doing the right thing (in forsaking all and following).  I just love this.  
This also saddens me.  Why? Well, many are more open to a fun night of binge drinking, sleeping around, trying a new drug, getting into a risky un-Godly relationship; then they are to give their life over to Yeshua.  Seriously?!?!? Why?  I honestly don’t know.  Why, would someone rather live a painful life, rather than be free in Christ?  I guess, the only comfort I have is knowing the God can go anywhere and touch anyones life.  God can reach the people in the club, the drunk at the bar, the person sleeping around, the one about to put a needle into a vain, and even the one thinking of an abortion.  So what can we do????? Pray for them.  Yes, even if we have prayed for that person 100 times before...pray for them 1000 times more.  Maybe it wasn’t there time yet to be saved.  Maybe they had lessons to learn. Maybe something, I don’t know, but God is God and God can save anyone.  I have to believe if the person is still on this earth there might be a chance for them to be saved.  So let us pray.
God, Today We pray for those who are lost.  We pray for those who are lonely.  God, we pray for those who are struggling with addiction of any kind. Set them free from their chains.  Lord, I pray for those who are harming others; to be granted a fruitful and loving heart;  longer able to cause anyone else anymore pain.  I pray God reaches down and releases them for any Demons, that maybe taking over their body, spirit, and or mind.  I pray for those who repent, be saved and granted grace.  Even for those who have to receive judgement from you Lord, we pray that they receive their judgement with a humble and courages heart.  Rejoicing in the fact that although they have done wrong, they can now make those wrongs right..... by being truthful, honest, reborn,  and pay restitutions to those they have hurt/harmed/murdered/injured.  We also pray for those that have been made to suffer at the evil hands of others; receive peace, healing, grace, and abundance in all aspect of their new life.  We pray that those now made anew from your healing, become testimonies of your Love and Blessings; furthering your kingdom here on earth.  You are the Almighty I AM.  God, you said you hear those who cry out to you. You hear and we believe you have heard our cries. We thank you Lord, that healing and blessings for those that are in need; are already on the way.  Thank you Lord.
We pray this in the great saving , redeeming, loving name of your son Yeshua Jesus Christ.
Amen
God is on the move my friends...have peace.
 Prayer from 6 Feb, 2019
Today friends, I pray we not judge others so harshly. I pray we allow God to do his work in his own time and trust the plan. I pray we don't give into jealously, vanity, or small mindedness. Our God is a glorious God. With mysterious supernatural ways, we can not understand stand. I pray we recognize the value each of us have in God's kingdom here on earth. I pray, we make it to the loving arms of Yeshua Jesus Christ ratified with the world we have be untrusted with on own own mission(s). I pray, we monger be held back with thoughts of doubt and or a slave mentality. I Pray we actually live by what we have been given; freedom through Yeshua. I pray we take God out of the box. Knock those four walls. I pray we have God every where we are and am going. I pray we see God not only within, but within others. I pray this in Yeshua's Great Name. Amen.

The Truth Behind St. Valentine’s Day
Long but worth the read. February 13, 2020 St. Valentine’s Day is the world’s “holiday of love.” Since the Bible states that God is love (I John 4:8, 16), does He approve of the celebration of this day? Does He want His people—true Christians—partaking of the candy and cards, or any customs associated with this day?
When God says He wants you to live life abundantly (John 10:10), does that include celebrating a festive, seemingly harmless holiday like Valentine’s Day? The God who gives us everything—life, food, drink, the ability to think for ourselves, etc.—surely approves of St. Valentine’s Day, the holiday for lovers to exchange gifts—right?
Do not be so certain. Do not assume anything. Do not even take this article’s word for it. Go to history books and encyclopedias. Go to the Bible. Then you will know the real truth behind St. Valentine’s Day. And you will know what God expects you to do about it!
Valentine’s Past Like Christmas, Easter, Halloween, New Year’s and other holidays of this world, St. Valentine’s Day is another attempt to “whitewash” perverted customs and observances of pagan gods and idols by “Christianizing” them.
As innocent and harmless as St. Valentine’s Day may appear, its traditions and customs originate from two of the most sexually perverted pagan festivals of ancient history: Lupercalia and the feast day of Juno Februata.
Celebrated on February 15, Lupercalia (known as the “festival of sexual license”) was held by the ancient Romans in honor of Lupercus, god of fertility and husbandry, protector of herds and crops, and a mighty hunter—especially of wolves. The Romans believed that Lupercus would protect Rome from roving bands of wolves, which devoured livestock and people.
Assisted by Vestal Virgins, the Luperci (male priests) conducted purification rites by sacrificing goats and a dog in the Lupercal cave on Palatine Hill, where the Romans believed the twins Romulus and Remus had been sheltered and nursed by a she-wolf before they eventually founded Rome. Clothed in loincloths made from sacrificed goats and smeared in their blood, the Luperci would run about Rome, striking women with februa, thongs made from skins of the sacrificed goats. The Luperci believed that the floggings purified women and guaranteed their fertility and ease of childbirth. February derives from februa or “means of purification.”
To the Romans, February was also sacred to Juno Februata, the goddess of febris (“fever”) of love, and of women and marriage. On February 14, billets (small pieces of paper, each of which had the name of a teen-aged girl written on it) were put into a container. Teen-aged boys would then choose one billet at random. The boy and the girl whose name was drawn would become a “couple,” joining in erotic games at feasts and parties celebrated throughout Rome. After the festival, they would remain sexual partners for the rest of the year. This custom was observed in the Roman Empire for centuries.
Whitewashing Perversion In A.D. 494, Pope Gelasius renamed the festival of Juno Februata as the “Feast of the Purification of the Virgin Mary.” The date of its observance was later changed from February 14 to February 2, then changed back to the 14. It is also known as Candlemas, the Presentation of the Lord, the Purification of the Blessed Virgin and the Feast of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple.
After Constantine had made the Roman church’s brand of Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire (A.D. 325), church leaders wanted to do away with the pagan festivals of the people. Lupercalia was high on their list. But the Roman citizens thought otherwise.
It was not until A.D. 496 that the church at Rome was able to do anything about Lupercalia. Powerless to get rid of it, Pope Gelasius instead changed it from February 15 to the 14th and called it St. Valentine’s Day. It was named after one of that church’s saints, who, in A.D. 270, was executed by the emperor for his beliefs.
According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, “At least three different Saint Valentines, all of them martyrs, are mentioned in early martyrologies under the date of 14 February. One is described as a priest at Rome, another as bishop of Interamna (modern Terni), and these two seem both to have suffered in the second half of the third century and to have been buried on the Flaminian Way, but at different distances from the city…Of the third Saint Valentine, who suffered in Africa with a number of companions, nothing is further known.” Several biographies of different men named Valentine were merged into one “official” St. Valentine.
The church whitewashed Lupercalia even further. Instead of putting the names of girls into a box, the names of “saints” were drawn by both boys and girls. It was then each person’s duty to emulate the life of the saint whose name he or she had drawn. This was Rome’s vain attempt to “whitewash” a pagan observance by “Christianizing” it, which God has not given man the power or authority to do. Though the church at Rome had banned the sexual lottery, young men still practiced a much toned-down version, sending women whom they desired handwritten romantic messages containing St. Valentine’s name. Over the centuries, St. Valentine’s Day cards became popular, especially by the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. These cards were painted with pictures of Cupid and hearts, and meticulously decorated with lace, silk or flowers.
First Man Called Valentine But who was the original Valentine? What does the name Valentine mean? Valentine comes from the Latin Valentinus, which derives from valens—“to be strong, powerful, mighty.”
The Bible describes a man with a similar title: “And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD” (Gen. 10:8-9). He was said to have hunted with bow and arrow.
As mentioned, the Romans celebrated Lupercalia to honor the hunter god Lupercus. To the Greeks, from whom the Romans had copied most of their mythology, Lupercus was known as Pan, the god of light. The Phoenicians worshipped the same deity as Baal, the sun god. Baal was one of many names or titles for Nimrod, a mighty hunter, especially of wolves. He was also the founder and first lord of Babel (Gen. 10:10-12). Defying God, Nimrod was the originator of the Babylonian Mystery Religion, whose mythologies have been copied by the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans and a multitude of other ancient peoples.
Under different names or titles—Pan, Lupercus, Saturn, Osiris—Nimrod is the strong man and hunter-warrior god of the ancients.
But what does the heart symbol have to do with a day honoring Nimrod/Valentine?
The title Baal means “lord” or “master,” and is mentioned throughout the Bible as the god of pagans. God warned His people not to worship or even tolerate the ways of Baal (Nimrod). In ancient Chaldean (the language of the Babylonians), bal, which is similar to Baal, meant, “heart.” This is where the Valentine heart symbol originated.
Now notice the name Cupid. It comes from the Latin verb cupere, meaning “to desire.” Cupid was the son of Venus, Roman goddess of beauty and love. Also known as Eros in ancient Greece, he was the son of Aphrodite. According to myth, he was responsible for impregnating numerous goddesses and mortals. Cupid was a child-like archer (remember, Nimrod was a skilled archer). Mythology describes Cupid as having both a cruel and happy personality. He would use his invisible arrows, tipped with gold, to strike unsuspecting men and women, causing them to fall madly in love. He did not do this for their benefit, but to drive them crazy with intense passion, to make their lives miserable, and to laugh at the results. Many of the gods of the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Assyrians and others were modeled after one man—Nimrod.
But what does this have to do with us today? Why should we be concerned with what happened in the past?
What God Thinks Read what God commands His people concerning pagan customs and traditions: “Learn not the way of the heathen…For the customs of the people are vain” (Jer. 10:2-3). Also notice Christ’s words in Matthew 15:9: “…in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”
Throughout the Bible, God describes “heathens” as those who worship things that He had created (animals, the sun, the moon, stars, trees, etc.), or man-made idols, or anything but the one true God. He calls such people and their practices pagan. True Christians understand that God hates any customs, practices and traditions that are rooted in paganism.
But just how serious is God about paganism?
When He rescued the twelve tribes of Israel from brutal slavery and led them out of Egypt, He commanded them, “After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein you dwelt, shall you not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, shall you not do: neither shall you walk in their ordinances” (Lev. 18:3). God demanded the Israelites not to defile themselves with the pagan practices and customs of surrounding nations (vs. 24-29). “Therefore shall you keep Mine ordinance, that you commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that you defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God” (vs. 30).
God cursed Egypt—a nation of nature-worshiper—with ten plagues and freed Israel from slavery. He rescued Israel from Pharaoh’s army by parting the Red Sea and leading His people to safety. He fed the Israelites manna—special bread made by God—from heaven. He protected them from battle-tested Gentile armies, delivered them into the Promised Land and drove out their enemies.
How did Israel treat God in return? “Our fathers understood not Your wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of Your mercies; but provoked Him at the sea, even at the Red Sea…They soon forgot His works; they waited not for His counsel: But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert…They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped the molten image. Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eats grass. They forgot God their Savior, which had done great things in Egypt; wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red Sea…they despised the pleasant land, they believed not His word: But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD …They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead. Thus they provoked Him to anger with their intentions” (Psa. 106:7, 13-14, 19-22, 24-25, 28-29).
God explicitly commanded Israel to cast out and utterly destroy all nations that occupied the Promised Land (Canaan). Above all, His people were not to make political alliances with them or marry into their families (Deut. 7:1-3, 5, 16). “For they will turn away your sons from following Me, that they may serve other gods” (vs. 4).
But the Israelites thought they knew better than God. They decided to do things their own way. “They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them: But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works. And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them. Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils [demons], and shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions” (Psa. 106:34-39).
To wake them up and get them back on track as the model nation He had originally intended, God gave Israel over to their enemies. Israel repented and cried out to God. God rescued them. With their bellies full and lives protected, the Israelites went back to pursuing other gods. God punished Israel again. Israel repented and cried out to God.
And so went the deliverance-idolatry-punishment-repentance cycle (vs. 40-46), until finally, God had no other choice but to divorce unfaithful Israel (Jer. 3:6-11).
He used the Assyrians, one of the most brutal warrior nations in history, to invade, conquer, enslave and relocate the entire northern kingdom of Israel (II Kings 17). Having “disappeared” from history, the modern-day descendants of those ten “lost” tribes are unaware of their true identity even to this day.
Later, God sent the southern kingdom of Judah (mainly the tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi) into Babylonian exile (II Kings 24 and 25). Because they kept (at least physically) the true Sabbath, which is a special sign that identifies the one true God and His people (Ex. 31:12-18), the Jews were able to retain their true identity.
The Israelites were severely punished because they lusted after pagan customs, rituals, traditions and practices. As you can see, God does not take paganism lightly.
Why Paganism Is Wrong Just why does God hate anything that resembles pagan customs? Is it possible to “whitewash” or “Christianize” pagan practices and make them clean? Is it okay to practice pagan customs as long as you “worship God”?
Notice what God says in Leviticus chapter 18. After rescuing Israel from slavery, God warned them not to practice the customs they had picked up in Egypt, or learn the ways, customs and traditions of the Gentile nations that they would encounter in the Promised Land (vs. 1-3). Instead, God commanded Israel to follow His ways (vs. 4-5).
God then describes the pagan ways of these ungodly nations in great detail. In verses 7-20, He condemns all kinds of heterosexual sex relations that fall outside the holy boundaries of marriage—incest, fornication, adultery, etc. In verses 22-23, God condemns homosexuality and bestiality. Together, these sins break down and destroy the family unit that God had so lovingly created and instituted.
Notice what God links to these perversions: “And you shall not let any of your seed [children] pass through the fire to Molech, neither shall you profane the name of your God: I am the LORD” (vs. 21). God ties in the perverse sexual practices of ungodly, pagan nations with human sacrifices—parents offering the lives of their children to pagan gods!
The Bible shows that Israel not only disobeyed God and wholeheartedly embraced the sexual immorality of the Gentiles, they even went a step further.
“And they have turned unto Me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction. But they set their abominations in the house [the temple at Jerusalem], which is called by My name, to defile it. And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into My mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin” (Jer. 32:33-35). (To learn more about these child sacrifices to Molech, download from our website our sermon Santa Claus is Molech and our booklets The True Origin of Christmas and The True Origin of Easter.)
Imagine. Israel committed a sin so vile, so disgusting, that it even shocked God! But that was then. What about today? Surely, parents do not sacrifice their children to pagan gods today—or do they?
Do not be so certain. Perhaps their lives are not being sacrificed—but what about their innocence?
Parents today expect their little ones to “fall in love” and have boyfriends and girlfriends. They think it is “cute” when little boys and girls hold hands and act like a couple, sneaking a kiss or two when no one is watching. Some parents get worried when their kids do not show romantic interest in the opposite sex. They constantly ask them, “Do you have a boyfriend yet?” or “Who’s your girlfriend?”
Yet these same parents are surprised when their teen-aged “little girl” gets pregnant. Or catches a sexually transmitted disease. Or gets an abortion behind their back.
St. Valentine’s Day is just one of many tools the “god of this world” (II Cor. 4:4) uses to get parents to sacrifice the innocence of their children.
When little boys and girls draw each other’s names in a lottery and send Valentine cards and gifts to each other, declaring their “love,” they are learning the first stages of intimate relations that the Creator God designed specifically for emotionally mature adults. Instead of embracing the carefree innocence of youth, growing up without the headaches and heartaches of adulthood (finding a job, paying bills, marriage, raising a family, etc.), children today are taught to lust after each other. They are caught up in a daily drama of “If-you-loved-me-you’d-sleep-with-me; I’m-pregnant; It’s-not-mine, she-had-an-abortion.” By the time they reach adulthood, virtually every shred of innocence, sincerity and moral decency has been stripped from them. Emotionally drained, they have world-weary, “been there, done that” attitudes. And their lives are just beginning.
This is why we live in a world where a teen-aged virgin is a rare find. Where what used to be called “shacking up” and “living in sin” is now simply “living together.” Where sex is nothing more than meaningless physical recreation—no emotional attachments, no cares, no concerns. Where people change sex partners as conveniently as they change clothes. Where unmarried twenty- or thirty-something’s have had at least five sexual partners—and that is considered a low number, especially in the United States. Where men are not referred to as “my husband,” or “my fiancé,” but as “my second baby’s father.”
How pathetic!
Satan has deceived the whole world (Rev. 12:9) in multiple ways—especially when it comes to intimate relationships. St. Valentine’s Day is just one of his tools for deception. (To learn more about this great deceiver, read Who Is the Devil?)
“Come Out of Her, My People” Concerning the near future, when man’s Satan-influenced world is about to collapse, God declares, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils [demons], and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed [increased] rich through the abundance of her delicacies” (Rev. 18:2-3).
Concerning this pagan, satanic system, God commands true Christians,“Come out of her, My people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues” (vs. 4).
St. Valentine’s Day originates from the ancient paganism of this Satan-influenced world. It is designed to deceive mankind by appealing to fleshly, carnal desires—or, as the Bible calls them, the works of the flesh.
“Now the works of the flesh are manifest [made obvious], which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry…drunkenness, revellings, and such like” (Gal. 5:19-21). Do any of these sound like Lupercalia to you?
Ultimately, “they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” A true Christian is focused on God’s soon-coming kingdom (Matt. 6:33) and the world to come—not on the fleshly cravings of this world. A true Christian must strive to “put off the old man” and actively imitate the perfect, righteous example of Jesus Christ. A Christian knows that he must actively come out of this world, out of its pagan-infested customs, practices and traditions.
Christians do not celebrate St. Valentine’s Day!
Love, Debbie

Vayaytsay: An Evening with Laban, Jacob’s Father-in-Law
Tumblr media
Come in, come in, Stranger! Welcome to my humble tent. I am Laban, sheikh of this little tribe—look around my home! As you can see, I have two daughters, Leah and Rachel, a fine son-in-law, Jacob, and grandchildren enough. Sit here, by the fire; it will stop your shivering—yes, our Aramean desert nights can get cold enough, I’ll tell you! Ha-ha! Here, Leah, my dear—fetch our guest a big bowl of that red-bean stew—that will warm your bones, I’ll wager!
The sheep in the paddock outside? Oh, you have sharp eyes, to count all those spotted-and-speckled sheep? Um—to speak truth—and I never do otherwise, trust me—they are not mine. They are the property of my son-in-law, that young scoundrel, Jacob, over there in the corner, playing with his baby, Joseph, my youngest grandson. And the other children? Why, they are his, as well. How prolific his wife must be, you ask? Truth to tell, my Jacob—my junior business partner—has, not one, but two full-fledged wives, and two concubines, to boot! That, Stranger, is what makes his family so large—but I don’t fret; they are all my grandsons—oh, and one granddaughter, Dena—where has my little princess got to? I do hope that she is not poking around the tent of that Shechem, again….
How do I manage to feed and clothe all of them? Well, indeed, Stranger, it is difficult—so much so, that Jacob and his family may one day leave my hospitality—(calling to Jacob) how long has it been, Jakey, that you’ve worked for—I mean, lived with me? Over twenty years? (resuming speech with the Stranger) Well, then, I would bet, they might leave—oh, at most any time. Still, I will never forget all the fine years we spent together—Jacob marrying my two fine daughters, taking to concubine the girls’ serving-maids, and building up his flocks! Ha! One could take pride in the accomplishments of such a boy—I mean, man—and I tell you, Stranger, it is as if he were my own flesh and blood! Such pride I take in him….
Any problems between us? (Suspiciously) Why do you ask? You’re not—forgive me—a spy for King Abimelech, are you? Ha-ha! Just joking…. Well, yes, it is crowded here, under my tent, but one must accommodate family, say I. Still, what a curious Stranger you are—you persist in your queries! Well, then, nothing asked, nothing answered, as my father, bless him, used to say—
There is but one area of contention (whispering, while glancing, from time to time, at Jacob, still busy with the infants off in the tent-corner)—this Invisible God that Jacob worships—to speak truth, it puts my neighbors off. They are all good Baal-and-Ishtar worshipers, just like me, the king, and (I assume) yourself, O Stranger. I cannot understand how Jacob can stick to just one God—it makes no sense, if you ask me. Where would we all be, had we not a god of the sky, a god of the river, a goddess of the harvest, and so on? Why, how could one God, no matter how mighty, manage all those different things? We’ve had many an argument on this subject, Jacob and I, and, in the end, must agree to disagree—he is a stubborn fellow, and, truth to tell (there I go again), so am I.
Why should Jacob leave me? Well, it’s been a long time that we’ve been together—and now, with his flocks so large and servants so numerous, it’s using up my precious resources—the grass of the fields, my provender, and my well of water, not to mention those high property taxes I must pay to King Abimelech—don’t get me started about property taxes. The king has promised to overhaul our taxation system, but, just between us, I don’t believe a word of it. Those tax changes never benefit the small tradesman, such as I am. The king always takes the lion’s share; he is, after all, the king. All hail His Majesty, Abimelech! (spits on the ground)
I see that you’ve made short work of your bowl of stew—would you care for some more? No? Well then, I do hope that you’ll join me in a cup of barley beer. Yes? Well then, Rachel! Go fetch me and my guest two cups of beer, from the barrel in the barn—oh, sorry, my dear—I see that you are nursing your new little prince—Stranger! What is a father to do with such recalcitrant daughters? Time was, a man could thrash his children into obeying—yes, those were the good old days….
Will you spend the night with us, Stranger? Charge? No, no charge—what do you take me for? I am but a humble shepherd and farmer, practicing good, old-fashioned Aramean hospitality. Still, I could not miss that fat moneybag on your belt—it clinks when you move—by Baal’s beard, I daresay it’s full of gold, isn’t it? Oh, you won’t say—yes, yes, none of my business; you are right. But your fingers and wrists  sparkle with jeweled rings and bracelets of pure gold!. Would there be a copper or two in your purse for me, Honest Laban, for your drink and sup? Ha-ha! Just joking, Stranger….

🕎7 YEAR OLD JOASH KING OF JUDAH🕎 The youngest king of Judah was Joash ( Yoash) who was seven years old according to 2 Chronicles 24 and he did that which was right in the sight of YHWH Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Zibiah of Beer–sheba. And Joash did that which was right in the sight of YAH all the days of Jehoiada the priest. 2 Chronicles 24:1‭-‬2 KJV Jehoiada, the priest, brought him out of his hiding-place, and set him before the people and the rulers in the temple, and placed the crown upon his head. Then all the people shouted, "Long live the king! Long live the king!" Queen Athaliah heard the noise of the shouting, and came out of her palace to see what had taken place. She saw the little boy-king standing by a pillar in the Temple, with the crown upon his head, and around him the soldiers and the people, crying aloud, "Long live the king!" Athaliah was very angry as she saw all this. She called for her servants and her soldiers to break up this gathering of the people, and to take the boy-king. But no one would follow her, for they were tired of her cruel rule, and they wished to have for their king one who came from the line of David. Jehoiada said to the soldiers, "Take this woman a prisoner, and carry her out of the Temple of YHWH. Let not her blood be spilled in the holy house." So they seized Athaliah, and dragged her out of the Temple, and killed her. Then Jehoiada and all the people made a promise to serve YHWH only. They tore down the house of the idol Baal, and destroyed the images, and broke its altar in pieces. They made the Temple holy once more, and set the house in order, and offered the sacrifices, and held the daily worship before the altar. And all the people were glad to have a descendant of David, one of the royal line, once more on the throne of Judah. Let's not forget the youngest king of Judah😊
