(Deuteronomy
6:8-9)
What are
the consequences of ignoring God’s Law?
We
might say the main consequence is the corrosion of society. We might draw a line between disobedience
against God and the collapse of civilization.
To some degree, this would be correct.
The intentional dismissal of “small” things leads to the tolerance of bigger
and more consequential things. This is
true where it concerns bullying and abuse, and it is just as true for the
cohesion of society.
On the
other hand, strict adherence to religious constructs hasn’t always led to great
societies. Islam hasn’t done much
service for the Arab world per se, and Hinduism hasn’t brought
It is
therefore difficult to see why people remain religious. Religious leaders appear to be, or are, lustful
of power, money and fame – and the adherents appear to be mostly blind to such
avarice. In many places, adherence to faith,
especially Christian and Jewish faith, draws derision rather than admiration. Even where adherence to faith is admired, it
is controlled by political forces.
Yet,
religion perseveres. It cannot be due to
gratitude for technological marvels – such things do not exist in many
religious regions - and where these marvels do exist, such technology is a
relatively new achievement. Religion
predates such advancements, and continues with them. Adherents are not convinced that religion
held back progress, and thus are not convinced it ever will, even if those who
love progress, and desire more of it, are convinced
that religious adherents are the cause of technological slowdown or entropy.
Thus,
adherence to ancient commandments has little to offer. There is no direct connection between
obedience to God and the rise of empire, and there is no direct connection
between disobedience to God and the fall of empire. Generally, such rise and fall is seen as a
struggle between good and evil on a much greater scale, between freedom and
enslavement, between those who cherish life and those who love death. Even on the atomic scale, a person cannot
find a direct connection between obedience to God and good luck in love or
money. Where such luck seems to exist,
it is often exploited by hucksters, then ridiculed by
anti-religionists. Thus, the Law of God
is often shortchanged by our perceptions of what is and what should be.
We don’t
quite understand the nature or purpose of obedience to commandments. Thus, we flop to faith. We see faith as a more powerful tool. We consider prayer to move invisible
mountains. We mount dedication as a
trophy. And when we are confronted by
the necessity to fulfill commandments, we bristle. Why?
Likely, the forces of life which demand our obedience, to the laws of
economics, to the law of physics, to the laws of life and death, have caused us
to become so weary with what we “have to do” and have to put up with” that we
feel justified to tell God, “I can’t do anymore. Please just accept what I can give you.”
I
cannot say that God does not accept such a plea. It’s an honest plea, and it appeals to God
Himself, which is
Faith
is the desire to run, and that’s intention, even good intention, but to
actually run just one more length is action, not intention. Though based in intention, there must be an
action which follows. Intention without
action is dead. Faith without works is
dead.
OK,
you might say, if I am to take action and not just have intention, and my
energy and time is limited, why should I spend that time and energy on rituals
such as tzitzit and t’fillin
and mezuzah? Aren’t there more important
things to do? Yes, there are. But if you’re too tired or strapped for time
to do the little things, how will you do the big things? And if you have the time and
energy for the big things, why not also the little things?
Jesus
said, “Whoever keeps the least commandment and teaches it to others shall be
called greatest in heaven, and whoever does not keep the least commandment and
also teaches others not to keep shall be called least in heaven” (Matthew
5:19). Which are the “least commandments”? Whichever you personally think are least. Thus, when
you decide that one commandment is too little to bother with, but you attempt to
fulfill it anyway, utilizing valuable time and energy, and furthermore you teach
it to others (such as your children), you are looked upon, according to Jesus,
as the greatest.
Think
about it! Of all the things Jesus might’ve
said makes you greatest in heaven – running for
office, destroying the corrupt – it is fulfilling and teaching the least
commandment which actually does it.
Why? Those things which God has
commanded but which we dismiss or neutralize, for whatever reason, rise to the
top of the “must do” column, in God’s eyes.
Refraining from murder, for most of us, is easy. Fulfilling the commandment to wear t’fillin is, for most of us, very difficult. Why?
For
Christians, there is a greater dilemma. Christians
believe that faith is the be-all and end-all which fills in the missing spaces created
by ignoring Torah. Yes, even the most
anti-Torah Christian believes that ignoring Torah requires Jesus Christ to make
everything whole. The mystery is why the
Christian who sees these holes as necessary to fill would not attempt to fill
them personally. The Church has seemingly
provided an answer to this laziness of self - Christians are taught that faith
in Christ fulfills Torah because Christ fulfilled Torah. If there is such a thing as religious welfare,
this is it – sponging off the hard work and actual actions of another, that is, sponging off Christ.
But
Christ did not sponge, he worked. Why
then does a Christian believe sponging is what God desires?
This
is not all Christians. Many Christians
believe in the power of works also. Yet
here too, they refrain from actual Torah, preferring their own artificial
morality, whether created from thin air or from compromises of the pulpit. If you, Christian, are truly interested in
pleasing God, why limit your commandments to only 10, and without much
explication? Indeed, Christians cannot
even agree whether Sabbath is Sunday or Saturday!
Why do
Christians say a tithe is mandatory but not adhere to tithing as commanded in
Torah?
Especially,
and towards today’s lesson, why do they fear outward affiliation with
Torah? Why do they refrain from, even
criticize and attack, the commandments to wear tzitzit
and t’fillin, and to affix a mezuzah? Is it that the Christian believes he will be
banished to hell for obeying such commandments?
Or is it instead that Christianity has intentionally avoided being
Jewish? Yes, this is it.
We
know this historically, and we know it continues to this day. That though Jesus Christ was circumcised, and
was, according to Christian doctrine, perfect in the Law of God (Torah), and
though he repeatedly called for strict adherence to Torah (Matthew

613.18: FRINGES (TZITZIT) ON GAR
(Numbers
In
every region of the world, the motto “when in
To
reject any part of the Law, whether out of contempt or out of some “Christian
privilege” (a real problem), causes great issues for us with the enemies of
Judeo-Christianity, that is, with the enemies of Torah. For a start, the atheists and anti-theists
seize upon any grumbling in order to erode confidence in commandments, whether
to eliminate limits on sexuality or to erect a satanic monument in the public
square (Google this). Islamic proponents
utilize every crease to venerate Koran in the community. Even those peaceful white Buddhists use small
divisions to make whatever self-aggrandizing statement suits them this
day. It is therefore self-defeating for
any Christian or Jew to bash any commandment of God.
What
sort of Christian rejects the words of Christ (Matthew
Make
no mistake, many Jewish people are no different, and
perhaps worse. They reject their
genetics, their culture, and their religion, probably in the false belief that
if they assimilate they will be safer (how ironic that many of these same Jews
do not demand immigrants assimilate into their society!). Not all Jews, but many, eat unclean foods,
work on the Sabbath, forget the High Holidays altogether, and neglect even
basic things such as circumcision for their sons.
Many
commandments of God seem inordinately trivial or decidedly clannish. This is intentional. God has fashioned certain commandments as
signs of separation, of outward affiliation with the “gang” of Torah. That’s right, visual identification is commanded by God.
For
example, today’s commandment, to wear fringes on garments is a sign to the
world that you are of Torah. The
commandment is fairly easy to accomplish.
One can wear the traditional tallis with
appropriate number of fringes and color stripe, or one is permitted to wear an
inner garment, which in times of peril may qualify (“peril” being subjective,
of course). One might ask, does a
fringed pair of suede boots “count” towards obedience. As one who desires Torah to be in the heart,
I would answer “yes” IF those suede boots are worn with intent. Naturally, many Jews would disagree, desiring
the “gang colors” to be more specific and concrete, and I respect that stronger
stance, but sometimes it is more beneficial to “ease in” obedience (and again,
many more stringent Jews would disagree).
The
danger in discussing Torah obedience is in-fighting. It is easier to attack each other over small
points rather than to attack the disobedient, even the blasphemous. This is because we, as believers, are
naturally more meek, and we find it embarrassing and even frightening to
confront the outside world. We as Torah
believers should take a page from Islamic passion and demand social structure, not request it. Does this sound too radical? It’s not.
Torah tells us that the land we inhabit shall be Torah, or else why do
we inhabit that land? This is a very
difficult thought for all Jews in the
These thoughts, and much more about the tzitzit, in today’s lesson. Come listen!

613.17: CIRCUMCISE THE MALE OFFSPRING.
(Genesis
17:12, Leviticus 12:3)
The
Law of God tells us to circumcise the male child on the eighth day after his
birth. The covenant with Abraham makes
clear that circumcision of the male child is necessary to be considered part of
the house of Abraham, and therefore apportioned with the promise of God to
inherit the Earth. The meek are those
who obey God, humbling themselves beyond, or before, their fears and
desires. The meek inherit the
Earth.
Jesus
was circumcised. Why was Jesus circumcised?
To distinguish Him as a believer, a Jew, and a lawful
male. The fact that the Bible
tells us explicitly when and how Jesus was circumcised indicates this
information is pertinent, even ultimate.
If circumcision were not important or vital, why did God have Jesus born
to a Jewish family? Why not a Gentile
family? Some may say He fulfills all commandments,
so He is the perfect sacrifice. First,
the reason to be perfect in the Law is not to be a sacrifice, but an
example. Second, the New Testament does
not list every commandment Jesus kept or did not keep, but circumcision is one
made explicit. Third, even those who say
Jesus was perfect in the Law seem to take delight in believing that Jesus also
disobeyed commandments openly and rebelliously, particularly against the Jewish
authorities. This is madness. Jesus can be considered neither a perfect
sacrifice nor a lawful Jew if He were flagrantly violating Torah. The truth, if you can handle it, is that
those who say Jesus violated Torah are misusing Christ as a torch for their own
hedonisms, such as eating unclean foods and acting in unlawful behaviors. Basically, if you think Jesus came to
overturn any part of the Law, you not only make Jesus a liar (Matthew
Circumcision
is one of the commanded signs of separation to distinguish oneself from the
non-believer. It’s like being part of
the gang. The fact that many are
circumcised for health reasons does not necessarily mean God recognizes such
circumcision as separation, but perhaps He does. The act is the consummation of intent, so
perhaps intent can be appended later.
The
Mohammedans keep this commandment, intentionally. The Bible tells us that Abraham circumcised
Ishmael also, at the same time that everyone else in Abraham’s household. Ishmael was therefore included in the
covenant. as well as having his own special promise
(it’s in the Bible). But female
circumcision is not in Torah. Perhaps it is not forbidden but there is no
lawful or godly reason to perform female circumcision.
Male
circumcision is not barbaric, it is
commanded. God is not barbaric
either. Circumcision is not especially
painful for the male child and rarely, if ever, leads to any physical or mental
issues. It is, in fact, a very safe
procedure, especially when performed by an expert (moil). To refrain from circumcising the male
offspring, out of fear, is still disobedience. To refrain out of rebellion
curses the child from God’s promise.
Those who say they don’t care about, or desire, God’s promise
are a threat to Torah society.
Their place is separate from those who do circumcise. Sorry if that offends, but the Gentiles have
had no issue in separating themselves from the Jews, almost compulsively
so. The Mohammedans have taken the more
aggressive road, doing the
separating by force rather than taking the separation in passivity. The fact is,
circumcision does not make one any more aggressive or passive.
As
usual, keeping or not keeping the commandment does not guarantee you wealth,
power, love, or any other desired thing.
It is not a sign of domination over other humans or of superior luck. It
is a sign of obedience to God, of humility.

613.16: WRITE A SCROLL OF TORAH FOR YOURSELF.
(Deuteronomy
31:19)
How
difficult is it to implement Torah?
First,
why does that matter? If you believe in God, the difficulty in obeying God is
merely a test of your resolve, just as it is a test of your resolve to deal
with all manner of difficult situations where it concerns friends and
family. Do you abandon your wife,
husband, children, parents, or close friends if they are difficult or ask you
to go through trials with them? If so,
you are not loyal and cannot be trusted.
It’s no different with God.
“But
God is infinite and omnipotent. He
doesn’t need my help.” Oh, but He does.
God cannot come down and live your life for you. He cannot make your Free Will feel any
differently. He cannot force you to love
anything, including Him. In fact, the
Free Will with which you’re blessed can only cause you to rebel against,
resent, and hate every rule, law, and construct which binds you. You must make your own choices, respect those
choices, and deal with the consequences, good or bad. Only then will you love God, when you are
blessed, and learn to love God even when you are not blessed, or even cursed.
Second,
most Torah is not that difficult to implement.
Believing in God is a snap, as most atheists will tell you. In fact, they believe it is the more
difficult thing to live without a belief in God, especially when everyone else
seems to believe, and this therefore makes the atheist feel superior. In times of weakness, the atheist finds self-respect,
pride, and solace in having rejected the “crutch” of God for the inner strength
of him or herself. Of course, the power
to make that choice is from God Himself.
Only man, among all the creatures, is known to make a god or know
God. And only man, among all creatures,
rejects God. All other creatures merely
live. We are blessed by nature (or even
evolution, if you like) with a higher thought process, which includes God. The knowledge of God is actually the more
evolved and powerful thought, while the rejection of God is the rejection of
human evolution. It is no small
coincidence that most people who live on Earth, probably 85 to 95% of the
world’s population, believe in God, gods, a god, or a higher intelligent power.
So the atheist is not evolved, just in the minority.
Nevertheless,
most believers don’t apply their daily power to obedience in or serving
God. They spend their time fighting
demons, clawing for wealth and power, and seeking pleasures while avoiding
pain. Does this prove it is difficult to implement the Law of God? Only so far as it is
difficult to get to the serving and
obedience. There is no lack of
energy in man, only a lack of willingness to apply oneself to something other
than the self. This, of course, is the
commonality of us all, that we are self-motivated by self-interest. The
communist can never alter that. Neither
can the altruist. Neither can God.
He
created Free Will not only for good intentions but also for best results. Love
cannot flower where there is no Free Will.
But where there is love, there is hate.
Where there is good will, there is ill will. And so forth.
It is not God’s “fault” that we disobey Him, it
is actually God’s Will. Otherwise, we would serve mindlessly, without Free
Will.
This
doesn’t mean we are free to disobey the Law of God. It means God expects it as
a by-product of a creature created with Free Will. Thus, the Law of God
provides for all types of mercy and forgiveness, where it is possible with God.
There are penances to make the unclean clean, and atonements to make the sinful
sinless again.
Naturally,
if you reject the Law, you reject the penances and atonements also. Here, I cannot help you. It is up to you to
make a Free Will choice to serve the higher power, who knows every atom in the
universe and every emotion you feel. It is up to you to decide that God knows
what’s best for you. Even here, however,
there is no assurance, for we know many good die young or broke, and many evil
live well and at the expense of the good.
It’s up to you to decide what is good or evil, even if the Law of God
already tells you. But, if you make a
choice, it is your choice and your consequence, here and hereafter. Do the evil really prosper, or is that an illusion? What do they sacrifice in their
humanity? Do they serve Satan actively,
in occult practices? Is there anything
for free in this world?
Today’s
commandment, for those willing, is to write a scroll of Torah for yourself. Or is it?
Deuteronomy 31:19 actually tells Moses to create a poem or song about God and
Torah, and to teach this to the children of

613.14: NOT TO ADD TO THE
613.15: NOT TO TAKE AWAY FROM THE COMMANDMENTS OF
TORAH.
(Deuteronomy
13:1)
Consider
this:
In
every degree, we are all hedonists who want our desires met, even if we also
desire God to look favorably upon our Torah behavior and thought. This means we have two minds and two hearts.
On one hand, every person has hopes, dreams, urges, wants and appetites. On the other hand, every person seeks
respect, even admiration and love, for being “good” and “not evil.” The
disparity, the argument, the tantrum even, occurs when a large enough bloc of
power is against that which you hope, dream, or desire.
Most
of the time, we can agree that certain hopes, dreams and desires should be
denied us. Examples? When we are angry and wish to harm or kill
someone. When we are jealous or greedy
and wish to steal things or people (kidnapping, rape, adultery). When we are impetuous and wish to have revenge. When we are ungrateful and
wish to rebel against the hand that feeds us.
On
other things, we do not agree with
blocs of power against us. Then we rebel
to have what feels good or “right” and we justify rebellion by many words or,
sometimes, action. Some rebellion is justified. Contracts broken by powerful
entities must be reinstated, and at times wars are fought to restore such
lawful order. Other rebellion is not so cut-and-dried, including those which
assert to be in favor of human dignity, and this is where Torah is lost.
Many
will say that Torah is secondary to human desire. This is the essence of
today’s lesson. In fact, the commandment
itself acknowledges such human desire and acknowledges the rebellion to fulfill
that desire, against Torah. That is, Torah understands and assumes you want to
rebel against it. Most lawful systems
give avenue for self-amendment to satisfy mutual rebellion against rules or
laws. Contracts include clauses for
amendment by mutual agreement. Constitutions of nations include methods for
lawful amendment. Torah, on the other
hand, does not include any avenue
for amendment, and specifically bars it.
This is unique in law, which makes it all the more remarkable. Islam has its Hadith,
Christianity has its Paulian deviation, and even
Hinduism has “evolved” from its original basis, but Torah is not subject to
change.
Let me
amend that previous statement. There are Jews who do not view Torah as
unbreakable, and even some who do not believe it was God, but rather men, who
gave the commandments. Regardless, their
views do not change the actual commandments, and their desires do not create
new laws. There are other Jews who do
not amend Torah but cast many interpretations, so that desires may be included
in Torah society for the sake of personal flexibility. These “Sages” made many commentaries which
were included in Talmud and other great books of Jewish thought on the subject
of Torah. The greater danger to Torah is actually from this latter group. For it is not that desires overwhelm Torah,
but that interpretations from respected Sages seem to verify rebellion over
obedience.
Even
here, however, there are two schools of thought. The first school of thought is Sadducee,
which is literal interpretation of Torah, with no, or very little, room for
deviation. This may appear too strict,
but Sadducees understand that human desire is too strong to permit a Torah
society very much latitude. The second
school of thought is Pharisee, which permits interpretation of Torah. The New
Testaments tells us the Pharisees believed in resurrection, the Sadducees did
not (Acts 23:8). Does this mean
resurrection is not included in the Old Testament? No, it’s there. Whether the “dry bones” of Ezekiel, or the
resurrection of people (for example, 1 Kings
Where
this disagreement becomes dangerous, to both Torah and society, is when actual
commandments are thrown to the wind.
There is no provision for negating any commandments, or for neutralizing
any specified punishment for breaking a specific commandment. “OK then, smart guy, then tell me why the
Jews don’t still perform animal sacrifices at the
This
applies to all things. Whether arguments for eating unclean foods, wearing
tattoos, accepting homosexuality, or breaking any other number of Torah taboos,
there is a struggle for what is perceived as “human dignity” in order to do
that which is forbidden. Christians
invoke Jesus as their catalyst and attorney, saying Christ came to get rid of
many impediments to breaking Torah. Really? That’s your argument:
you love Christ because he permits your sin?
“No, smart guy, it’s no longer sin because he died for my sin.” So
you’re saying Christ died so you could eat pork, wear tattoos, and accept male
homosexuality? “I don’t judge, smart guy, and neither should you.” This sounds like you
want me to be quiet for the sake of peace. “That’s right, smart guy, peace.
Stop being such a retrograde Neanderthal.
Evolve!” To which I say, if Jesus wanted me to adapt for the sake of peace, why did
He say, “I didn’t come to bring peace”?
Are you saying Jesus came in favor of sin against Torah, His Torah, so
that your desires could be met? “Hey, smart guy, it’s a mystery why God loves
me, so I don’t question that love.” And
therein lies a deeper truth.
Those
who claim “mystery” regarding sin and Grace only see it as mystery because they
are too busy justifying their sin. There
is no mystery. God desires obedience
rather than sacrifice (1 Samuel
“Oh
yeah, smart guy, well, if God didn’t want us to sin, why did He create us as
sinners? Is it God playing a sick game?”
To which I say, the alternative to freedom of will is
to be an automaton, a robot, a zombie.
Is that preferable? God created
you with free will for one reason, so you could choose to love Him. Selfish? Maybe. He does say
His name is Jealousy. But He is the
master of the universe, not you. If you
question why you were created to be free, maybe you should ask yourself why
being free is such a problem for you.
That is, why is it so hard for you to be obedient? “Oh yeah, smart guy, are you perfect in the
Law?” No, but I’m not teaching against
the Law in order to justify my mistakes and sins. I own it and I repent for it. Repentance is acknowledging I am flawed, and
then putting in effort to change, to stop the sin.
Naturally,
nothing I say will stop those single-minded to have their way, whether
sexually, or in food, or in drink, or in warfare, or in corruption. They will make me the butt of jokes, just as
the same type of hedonists made Jesus the butt of jokes, and eventually
crucified Him. Remember, the authorities
put Jesus on the cross, but the people permitted it. First, the good people
said nothing. Second, the sinners showed
up to cheer on His death. Then, back to
the business of their carnality. But the resurrection of Christ showed that
Torah cannot be killed. Torah, not a person, was resurrected from the grave.
Hedonists
continue in their sin. Justified by corrupt governments who love their weakness, and weak
religious ideas that love carnality, and criminals who profit from distribution
of hedonism. Torah is seen as
backwards and, honestly, not a lot of fun.
This is the eternal struggle.

613 COMMANDMENTS!
Today, #13.
613.13: TO CLEAVE TO THOSE WHO KNOW GOD (Deuteronomy
Having
established that to “know” God is to obey God, we now are commanded to “cleave”
to (or attach ourselves to) those who know (that is, obey) God.
For
those who seem to forget easily, Matthew 5:19 tells us that whoever does and
teaches the least commandment shall be called greatest in heaven, and whoever
does not do, and teaches against, the least commandment shall be called least
in heaven. So let us not delude
ourselves (and others) that to obey God is distilled down to 2, or 10,
commandments. Jesus, being Jewish, is
referring to obeying Torah, in its minutiae, and to teach it also. Those who therefore say they will cleave to
Jesus rather than to Torah are
speaking not of Jesus but of some entity who is
against Torah. Let’s see now, who would be against Torah? Oh yes, Satan. Need more proof? In the wilderness, Jesus battled, and
defeated, Satan by quoting thrice from Torah.
Not able to withstand the commandments of God,
and those loyal to those commandments, Satan was forced to flee, and Jesus was
thereby proven. You say Jesus doesn’t
need any proof, that he is self-sustaining?
Why then does Christianity make it that Jesus was, and had to be,
perfect in the Law? Yes, I understand
the thought process, that Jesus was perfect in the Law in order to be a
sacrifice for sin. But why was that the process? Why instead was Jesus
not sanctified by other means, such as many fasts or sacrifices or
miracles? If Christianity is to confess
itself, it must admit that keeping the Law is the only thing that makes a body
acceptable to God. If Jesus had not kept the Law, God would have
rejected Jesus.
But as
Christ stated plainly, it’s not even enough that Jesus kept the Law. He also had to teach the Law, in order to stay within the parameters of Matthew
5:19. In order to be called the greatest
in Heaven, Jesus was bound to keep the smallest commandment, and teach it also. To “teach” is to have pupils, those who will
learn and carry forth the learning. Those who will do as they are taught. Clearly, to be called greatest in Heaven is
to be a teacher of the least commandments of Torah. But one cannot be a teacher, or called
greatest, if one does not follow Torah and teach it also. Anyone therefore who does not teach others to
follow the least commandments of Torah is not
a follower of Christ.
Christianity
teaches otherwise. Christianity teaches
that Jesus “fulfilled” commandments so that, for whatever reason, you wouldn’t
have to fulfill those commandments.
Christianity creates a system which actually favors and rewards those
who specifically ignore and disobey certain commandments. For example, eating of
unclean foods. Let us say you
consider the commandments to refrain from eating unclean foods as a “least”
commandment. You are still obliged under
Matthew 5:19, and the commandments themselves, to refrain from eating unclean
foods. Let us say you believe even
further, that Christ’s death and blood, for whatever reason, have washed away
such commandments. Are you saying
Matthew 5:19 is a lie? Because if
Christ’s death and blood wash away any commandment, no matter how small, it
means Christ teaches against that commandment, no matter how small. If this is what you’re saying, you make
Christ a liar and a demon. Let’s say you
believe that when Christ said, “it’s not what goes in the mouth, it’s what
comes out,” He was signaling that all foods are now kosher. Does that include human corpses? Why not?
“It’s not what goes in the mouth..” You’ll say, “Oh, come on, be serious and have
some common sense.” Why is what I said
not common sense? If it’s not what goes in the mouth which corrupts a man, then
eating human flesh does not corrupt a man.
Do you see? If you change even
the smallest jot or tittle, the Law is corrupted to the point where cannibalism
is possible. Jesus said He did not come
to change the Law, not a jot or tittle (Matthew
A true
follower of Jesus is a follower of Torah.
Such a follower is a student, a doer, and a teacher, who fulfills not
only Matthew 5:19 but also this commandment 613.13.
But it
is not enough to simply rely on your own opinions and interpretations of
Torah. Such a watered-down Torah
eventually, through the generations, becomes tepid, even non-existent. Like any law, Torah must be implemented the
same in all society, or else there is favoritism in the Law, much as tax law
favors those who have the money to lobby for exemptions. There can be no exemptions for eating unclean
foods in a Torah society, which means also in a Christian society. Any society that permits eating of unclean
foods, as defined by Torah, is not a Christian society, but a pagan society. Add in just a few more elements, such as
tattoos and unlawful sexual practices, and you have, by its
own permissiveness, a completely non-Torah and non-Christian society.
People
ask me, “Tom, do you follow every
commandment? Are you perfect?” Naturally, I
am not perfect and am not able to follow every commandment perfectly, and this
causes such people to laugh at me. Yet,
they are not laughing at me, but laughing at Torah. I am but a messenger of Torah. To laugh directly at me can only be to laugh
at a clumsy messenger, but this is not their aim. No, they denigrate the messenger so the
message itself is destroyed. If the
messenger is not perfect, they feel justified to call the messenger a hypocrite
and to continue in their desires, whether of hedonism, corruption, savagery, or
crime. So it is important that Jesus was
perfect in the Law. Not to sanctify a self-sacrifice for the benefit of more sinning. No, it is important that Jesus was perfect in
the Law so that the messenger cannot be called a hypocrite.
And we
see indeed that the most virulent anti-Christians hold up Christ as the example
to which we should all aspire, even if the example is one of
permissiveness. Yes, Christ is upheld
even by pagans, not because Christ was a pagan, but because Christians say he was a pagan. That’s right, Christians
say Christ came to unshackle them from Torah in order to set them on a life of
righteousness by faith. But if you say
Christ came to unshackle you from Torah, even in the tiniest fashion, you make
Christ to be, according to Matthew
Today’s
lesson is to cleave to those who know God, that is, who obey Torah. For if we do not obey Torah, we disobey both
God and Christ. And if we say Christ did
away with any part of Torah, we are beneath contempt, using the greatest teacher
to justify our least desires.

613.12: TO LEARN AND TEACH TORAH (Deuteronomy 6:7)
The
hardest lesson for any Christian to learn, yes, for any Jew to learn, yes, for
any person to learn, is that the entire duty of man is to fear God and keep His
commandments (Ecclesiastes 12:13). Jesus
Christ tells us that whoever does the least commandment AND teaches others to
do so is greatest in, or called greatest from, heaven (either way is
excellence). Why is this
the hardest lesson?
When a
person catches fire for God, the first thing he or she endeavors to do is
consult the holy book, and specifically
to consult the “rules of the game” (The Law) to see if it matches up with (a)
the teachings from the pulpit and (b) what one already believes. When it is therefore discovered in the Law of
God, the commandments, the rules, that certain foods, clothing, hairstyles,
lifestyles, sexual gratifications, and other things are forbidden, a great
falling-away occurs. A rebellion against
commandments begins immediately.
Bargaining ensues. A search for
those who think more like you and less like the Law is started. You don’t want to feel alone so you seek out
like-minded people who dilute the commandments to your specific gravity. Thus, denominations spring from religions,
and sects from denominations, all according to how much or how little the Law
of God is applied. Those who believe the
Law is the primary thing are called orthodox, conservative or fundamentalist,
those who think the Law secondary or unimportant are
called liberal or reformed. Amongst
these name-tags are further distillations and re-naming to both satisfy flocks
and distract arguments.
But
Judaism IS Law, both in Torah and Talmud.
Deviations from Law do not reflect “evolution” from primitiveness, but
rather regression to pre-Torah, or savagery, according to doctrine and
tradition. Law is that which keeps the
base components of man at bay. Any
deviation is therefore back to more carnal and dangerous man, who steals,
murders, commits adultery, worships Baal, puts the children through the fires
of Moloch, and so forth. Those who argue
that “least commandments” serve no purpose other than cultic identity or
organization are deflecting their own inability or unwillingness to follow
commandments by purposely calling them antiquated and/or surpassed. Their desires are more important to them than
God’s desires.
The
Christians have taken this mindset and canonized it with many commentaries and
apologists. They excuse behavior outside
the Law by both neutralizing the Law with the blood of Christ, and by
denigrating those who speak out against such neutralizing. But the blood of Christ cannot negate the
words of Christ, and Matthew 5:19 is indisputable: “Whoever does and teaches
the least commandment shall be called greatest; whoever does not do the least
commandment and teaches others likewise shall be called least.” So while the Christian may feel empowered by
many excuses to eat pork, Christ says otherwise, and it cannot be twisted that
“it’s not what goes in the mouth, it’s what comes out” means anything contrary,
otherwise we may eat the flesh even of living human beings. THAT is the natural progression from excusing
unlawful behavior. As well, those who
invoke Law over permissiveness are called “legalist” and other naughty
words. But if this is true, to be a
legalist is bad, then Jesus is bad, since His entire basis was lawful living,
legal arguments, and Torah teaching. If
He did anything other than this, He could never be the perfect being which
Christians say He is. So why is it Christ must be perfect, but Christians can be
imperfect, in fact almost MUST be imperfect to satisfy others of the flock?
The
answer is simple. Like Jews who each
bacon and get tattoos, Christians who eat bacon and get tattoos feel either
entitled or rebellious. The words of the
commandments which exist in the Old Testament attached to the New Testament exist
literally. But those who desire bacon
and tattoos must pretend they don’t exist, or else make excuses why it’s OK to
do that which is not OK. Rebelliousness
is the Jewish method for fulfilling desires.
Jews don’t deny Torah, they just break it. Entitlement is the Christian method. Christians don’t deny Torah either, they just
pretend that Jesus Christ wrestles and argues with God on their behalf, like an
ACLU lawyer defending the indefensible.
When this imagery fails, they say Christ is God, which means God can do
whatever He likes including changing His Law.
But the Law itself states that nothing shall ever be added or taken away
from the Law, and Jesus Christ agrees that He came not to destroy the Law, neither
a jot nor tittle (portions of letters).
So if the Law states it is eternal and unchangeable, and Christ agrees
and reiterates, how can the Christian claim ability to break the commandments
and still not be subject to punishments for breaking commandments?
We
will not go into “grace” here, but will only say that God’s Grace is to absolve
sinners who repent, not those who keep on sinning, whether they “accept Christ”
or not.
The
commandment to learn and teach Torah is part of this puzzle. You are COMMANDED to teach Torah, but how can
you without hypocrisy if you openly disobey?
You cannot. The commandment is
not fulfilled if you yourself do not obey.
This is what made Jesus Christ great.
He lived it AND taught it. Many,
many Christians do not emulate Jesus but rather admire Him from a distance. This is incorrect. The proper Christianity is the lawful
Christianity just as the proper Judaism is the lawful Judaism. And yes, that includes commandments which
seem discriminatory or hurtful to certain groups of people with whom you wish
to make peace.

613.11: TO
One of
the more deviant ideas of Western society is to revere the young. Granted, giving too much respect to youth is
probably a worldwide phenomenon, but I wish to focus upon the problems I can
see and know.
Let’s
begin with a basic question: Who Shall Run Your Society? In my case, I mean the
Another
problem in society is the focus on the economic value of youth. Advertising geared towards youth is in many
ways propaganda against prevailing society.
What’s wrong with that, you may ask.
To which I counter, the very society which is attacked by such
advertising is the same society which supports that freedom of speech. So why would advertising subvert its own
foundation? Well, this may shock you,
but some people are revolutionary communists, and their method is to cause
unrest among those who feel oppressed.
Never mind that when Marx wrote his papers the oppressed were the
industrialized West, which today are the leisure class en masse which depends
on the oppressed of China and other nations to produce their goods. What did I just say? I said that the so-called revolutionary youth
of Western society are living the “life of Riley” but seem hell-bent to destroy
their own good fortune. Mind-boggling,
isn’t it, that the goals of Marx, for the lower classes to enjoy a better
lifestyle has been achieved in Europe and America, yet youth and others are
continually being prodded to, and falling for, Marxism. It’s quite amazing to watch youth flush their
wonderful futures down the drain. And for what? The ungrateful hordes of Middle-Eastern “refugees” which flood
their countries and attack their culture and people? Or invaders from other countries who say they
migrate for economic reasons but then form enclaves to change society to their
own worse ways? It’s hard to give these
invaders credit for victory when the people they invade are not even fighting
back! And why aren’t they fighting
back? Youth has been brainwashed to feel
guilt towards, rather than honor for, what they have, and those who gave, and
defended, those things they have.
Seeing
these factual truths, we can more readily understand why Torah commands honor
for the old and wise. The old and wise
have lived through many crises and learned how to preserve society for the
better, and to defend themselves from enemies.
The old and wise are not given to fanciful notions of utopia and
overreaching altruism which are proven by experience and logic to be
destructive to all people. The old and
wise are cautious to implement new ideas which upend the security of the
nation. Of course, the battle-cry and
zest of youth is to constantly seek the new thing, to overturn the
conventions. Basically, to rebel is
natural for the teenager. But natural or
hormonal rebellion is not good cause to willy-nilly change society “just to
see” how it works out. Such changes are
generally not good and are rarely easily-reversible. The old and wise are the keepers of the
flames of logic, security, and opportunity.
You can argue against this one or that one, this ancient thing or that
ancient thing, but “don’t fix what ain’t broken” is a good rule of thumb. But where things are broken, youth is still
too impetuous and inexperienced for solutions.
OK,
let’s say you are now ready to preserve your society under Torah. We need to define terms. Since commandment is law, and trespass of
commandment is sin, we want to know exactly what to do and for whom, not only
to do what’s right but also to know what exactly is wrong. What is “old and wise”? Certainly, older is one part of this, meaning youth is meant to defer under
Torah. Oh, they don’t like THAT, do
they? But is it merely age-driven? No, one must also be “wise” to earn this
respect. What is “wise”? No arguments are necessary here. Torah always refers “wisdom” to itself. That is, whoever follows Torah is wise. But also, whoever follows Torah with an eye
to mercy rather than to blood is wiser still.
This does not mean mercy overrides Torah. Tolerance of sin in the name of mercy is the
cause of almost all our ills, and youth, sad to say, is the leader of such
anti-Torah tolerance. In fact, they
tolerate almost everything EXCEPT Torah, because they are impetuous,
inexperienced, and willing to experiment on society without understanding
irreversible consequences.
The
commandment tells us to “honor” the old and wise. What is “honor”? The minimum standard appears to be that one
stands up when an old and wise person enters the room. But not every old person is wise, and not
every wise person is older, so how do we know?
Supposing an unfamiliar old person enters the room, is the younger
person commanded to stand up “just in case” that older person is wise? Obviously, this can get quite out-of-hand
very quickly and cause a rebellion against standing up, that is, against
honoring the old and wise, that is, against Torah. So, some moderation or
clarification is necessary so that our days are not taken up with simply
standing up every time an older person enters the room. This is a case for sages, and such things are
open to some debate. But at least we are
talking about preservation of society and respect for wisdom. The opposite is that we do not honor anyone
unless we want to honor, and thereby we disrespect and ignore wisdom and
experience. Naturally, if society is
failing, there is a call for reform, but the case is more often that society
fails due to disrespect against law, not unity for law. Society fails due to mindless arrogance, not
mindful respect.
To
take it into the realm of modern parlance, the problem with “white privilege”
is not that it enjoys the fruits of its labors, the
problem is that it believes it can exist without honor for the old and
wise. The Marxist equates such “white
privilege” as the reason for oppression of the working class, making “white
privilege” code for middle-class wealth, which the Marxist wishes to
destroy. But Torah makes clear that
middle-class wealth is protected, and to thereby enjoy that wealth is not
against Torah. Marxism cannot therefore
coexist with Torah. Youth which espouses Marxism is the impetuous and
inexperienced youth which is hell-bent with its own “white privilege” that
believes it can sustain its lifestyle while destroying it! Talk about blindness and taking things for
granted!
The
commandment to honor the old and wise, even at its minimum to stand up in their
presence, thus forces youth to acknowledge past wisdom and present success, to
honor and respect it, even if unwise youth cannot stop thinking about some
utopian future.

613.10: IMITATE THE GOOD & UPRIGHT WAYS OF GOD (Deut. 28:9)
Most
people think nothing of God until they do something wrong. When I say “most people” I mean most
Christians, most Jews, most Muslims, most Hindus, most Buddhists, most atheists
– everybody. Some people admire the
Muslim call to prayer five times a day, but are these people thinking of God,
or of their aching knees? Does prayer
call initiate prayer? And if it does,
what good does it do a person? Is every
Christian following the Word of God?
Heck, are the majority of Christians even following their own
doctrine? For that matter, do Hindus
enjoy their caste system? Are Buddhists
really all that peaceful, inside or out?
Are Jews more lawful, whether they pray or don’t pray? Are atheists less inclined to be virulent or
ideological by refraining from prayer?
The answer to all these questions is a resounding NO.
Naturally,
the exceptions to the rule, probably 20% of the population of any belief
system, will object to my characterization of their belief system, since they
are the “good example” for themselves and the rest of their flock, as it were. They consider themselves to be following the
good and upright ways determined by either a Good
Book, their elders, or their conscience.
They consider themselves to be archetypes, even prophets, of the
religion or cause. This applies whether
that person is activist or pacifist, believer in God or not.
What
gives a person this ego? What nature
urges a person to stand forward to protest on behalf of his own actions? Or, in the case of the altruist in the
moment, on behalf of someone else’s actions who may be admired? Why does the Muslim protect the actions of
Mohammed? Why does the Buddhist bristle
for Siddhartha? Why does the Jew rail
for Moses or Abraham? Why does the
Christian defend Jesus? And why does the
atheist point the average believer in God towards the more humanist viewpoints
of any Good Book or prophet thereof?
Simply,
every person knows this world can do better.
Whether it is to cease conflict, feed the hungry, or to mind our own
business, every ego which stands forward in such a way does so to defend the
idea of what it means to be “good and upright.”
Naturally, these different religions and belief systems exist due to the
varying nature of what is “good and
upright.” People do not seem to
agree. Whether we speak of the right
foods to eat, the wrong sexual partners, the manner of wearing hair, there are
huge differences between many faiths, indeed between the sects or denominations
of many faiths, including atheism.
One
thing we do all seem to agree upon is the Golden Rule. Even if one believes he is permitted by his
own conscience to murder, or steal, or rape, or lie, or otherwise decimate, no person wants it done to him. No criminal allows it to himself. No adulterer allows it to herself. No Muslim wants jihad on his own. Not even a masochist wants carnage if it is
not pleasurable. In other words, when
bad things happen to our loved ones, all of a sudden we want law and order.
But
where is this cry for “law and order” in the abstract? Why do we not in advance promote law and order, to prevent such chaos? Why do we not demand that the government
follows the Constitution? Or, if we live without a constitution, to institute one? Why is government corruption ignored? Why do we look away from evil? Why do we stand by while our freedoms are
ravaged?
Quite
simply, we are selfish creatures. Though
given by God the power to plan and build a future, and to promote that future
by construction of better rules, and enforcement of those rules, we rather are
more interested in our own desires, appetites, vanities. The mirror is more important, the belly more
immediate, the sexual urges more demanding.
And the more vainglorious our behavior, the more sedate and fey we
become, easy prey for those with even fewer barriers to their whims. We become targets for savages and predators.
The
best law and order, therefore, is not one which promotes individual liberties
but rather one which promotes greater responsibility for those we elect, or
otherwise have, as our leaders. Your
individual liberty is not as important as the accountability of your
congressmen, for example. If your
president is a tyrant, what good does it do you to be free in your
desires? In fact, those freedoms shall
be short-lived once the tyrant takes note of you as a danger to the community. The tyrant is like you, interested only in
his own appetite and liberty, but unlike you the tyrant shall smash you to
attain more or keep the status quo.
Obviously,
those smashed are angry and want an end to tyranny. However, if the smashed are in the business
of setting up an alternate society within a perfectly sound society, a
subculture, and this subculture is a danger to the perfectly sound society, the
smashing may be warranted. This is the
rub when it comes to freedom: to keep it, someone must protect what we
have. There must be a conservatism to
preserve what is good.
For
the Judeo-Christian, this highest good comes from the Law of God, which is
Torah. The Constitution of the
We
reach now an impasse to our agreement.
No one will argue that society requires defending, but they shall argue what society should
be. If we follow Torah, society is
defended by God. If we do not follow
Torah, it is defended by dedicated servants to family and country. If family and country is demeaned and
attacked from within, that society is doomed.
Truly, without the upright ways of God, which are His words of Law and
Order, that is, Torah, we hinge entirely to the loyalty of our military, to
which we owe great thanks and honor. But
what drives these men and women to defend society when the society itself
attacks them? It is their inner loyalty
to God. The atheist cannot deny this,
for there is no atheist, only the person who hates those who pretend to love
God, for the atheist believes himself, after all, to be good and upright in the
eyes of God.

613.9: DO NOT TEST THE WORD OF GOD (Deuteronomy
Society
today is imploding for one reason: law and order is being tested every
second. Now, you might say, “Oh come on,
Tom, law and order has been tested since the beginning of law and order.” Yes, true, but isn’t it also true that
societies, entire civilizations, have crumbled due to law and order
crumbling? You might say, “No… many
societies were doing just fine until they met their end under volcanic ash, or
at the hands of conquistadors.” Well
then, if these societies were doing just fine until outside disaster struck,
were they or weren’t they following the rules of law and order, according to
their society? In other words, when the
volcano erupted, or the conquistador landed, were these societies running well
or not? You see, I can make a
counter-argument for every argument that societies do not disintegrate due to
inner weakness but instead to outside invasion or armageddon.
For example, were those who suffered doom at the hands of the Pompeii
volcano just minding their own business as the volcanic molten ash rained down
on them, or were they unprepared in arrogance, filth, and civil war? Will we ever really know? For another
example, were the Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans living peaceful coexistent lives
when the brown-skinned Spaniard came to rape and pillage, or were they involved
in different levels of disregard for human life or personal property? Here, we have some evidence, but maybe not
enough to come to a pertinent conclusion.
But
let us not ask too many hypothetical questions about former societies which no
longer exist, when we have today to worry about. At this exact moment, Five Evils are vying
for control of planet Earth: Corruption (New World Order), Savagery (Islam,
race war), Collectivism (communism, socialism), Hedonism (perversion, drug
culture), and Crime (cartels, syndicates).
It is an interesting time in human history, unlike any we’ve ever
witnessed, experienced, or heard about.
Not ONLY are these five factions duking
it out for the resources and nuclear weapons, but there are unheard-of methods
to do it. Oh yeah! Hedonism is spiraling into its own pit by
demanding public acceptance, to a degree never before heard, using government
as a weapon to have the “right” to inundate children with vice. Sure, under the guise, Crime uses these poor
souls to further their reach into human life and pocketbook. And for sure, Corruption LOVES the stoned and
oversexed people who are too distracted by their flesh to keep an eye on the treasury
and the weapons storehouse. MEANWHILE,
savagery rises as the barbarians sense their chance
through the weakness of certain races and cultures, specifically in

there an answer? Yes, there has ALWAYS

the basis of all free people’s constitutions, such as in the
Don’t
misunderstand me. I’m not saying that
civilizations INSTANTLY disappear when Torah is not the Law of the land. It takes time, sometimes hundreds of years,
for great societies to cease from the face of the planet. But disappear they will and MUST. There can be no society when multiculturalism
is propagated, because it dilutes law and order by permitting enclaves of
different and alien codes of law. There
can be no coexistence when one set of people flout, break, and disregard the
law of the majority. And if the
government is on the side of the minority, there must be war, civil war,
skirmishes, lawsuits, constitutional upheaval, media blitzes against the
majority, and so forth. All ingredients which weaken a
nation, making it ripe for dissolution or invasion. To test any law of ANY land destroys that
land. Torah is no different.

613.8: FEAR THE LORD (Deuteronomy
There
are many people who say we ought not be afraid of God
who fear God anyway. For
example, New Agers who seek enlightenment, but who
ignore the violent roots of their own tapestry, notably, the American Indian
who fearfully sacrificed human life to the gods. Buddhists who believe their meditation is
peace, but give little thought to the fears associated with karma, striving and
reincarnation. Atheists who say they
cannot respect a god who demands or causes fear, but who are only making an
excuse to do as they please.
Let me
be clear. When I say “atheist,” I mean
“anti-theist,” someone against the tenets which strike the fear of God into
men. A true atheist is more like an
agnostic, who doesn’t know if God exists or not, but still lives according to
his own rules, weak though they may be. An true atheist also has fears, that God may exist after
all, that science doesn’t have all the answers, that the invisible things we
take for granted, like personality and emotions, which have no quantification,
spell doom for the pure materialist. An
anti-theist, on the other hand, has an agenda, which is to refute God
in order to install some other rule of law.
Since the rule of law always depends on fear, whether the jail cell, or
the avenger of grievances, the anti-theist is not against fear, but wishes to
be feared. The anti-theist rails
against the punishments found in Torah, the Law of God, but then offers similar
punishments against those who are for Torah.
It is more than hypocrisy here.
It is a struggle between God and man.
Logically, we should always choose God.
For though God’s Law cannot be changed, the tyrant may change the rules
as his fears or desires sway him. The
anti-theist “atheist” therefore does not offer freedom from fear, only a
different fear, in fact, more fear.
The
Christian also preaches against fearing God.
Though the Bible he carries says explicitly, and commands, to fear God,
the Christian thinks only in terms of “love.”
The Law of God is transmuted into the “law of love” for the sake of
calming nerves, angers, and fears. Those
afraid of commandments are assured that Jesus is not seeking obedience but
rather a form of loyalty. But loyalty
without obedience is false loyalty.
There is not loyalty if the leader is not obeyed. The leader of Christianity is ostensibly
Christ. But Christians disobey Christ
every minute of every day. In Matthew
5:19, Christ says that whoever breaks and teaches against the least commandment
shall be called least, and whoever keeps the least commandment and teaches it
shall be called greatest. If you say
Christ taught to disregard any commandment, you say that Christ is least. Is Christ least? I should think not! Does the death of Christ remove the necessity
to keep many commandments? No! To say it does teaches against keeping
“least” commandments. Why do Christians preach such things which are against
their own New Testament? I will tell you
why. They fear fear. Franklin Delano Roosevelt famously said, “We
have nothing to fear but fear itself.” But he meant that we should not be lax to act
due to complete paralysis.
Many
Jews also do not fear God, and therefore arrogantly, or dismissively, do not
keep commandments. The reluctance to
keep kosher is perhaps the most obvious rebellion here. They eat shrimp and crab and even ham, and
say, “Why did God make it if not to eat?”
To which the answer is clear, he made it so you would not eat it. And if God made the shrimp for the believer
to eat, did he make the mouse also for the believer to eat? Can you eat human flesh and drink human
blood? Why not? Is it “common sense” or disgust which keeps
you from it? If it is forbidden, it is
forbidden. Did God not also create
poisonous plants which nevertheless taste good?
Did God not create cholesterol, and therefore should you not eat until
you burst your arteries? We obviously
are not speaking about what is commanded, but what you desire.
But
also, like everyone else, Jews desire to fit in. They seek to fit into a society which
historically rejects them. They believe
they will be liked, accepted, respected if they can hide or minimize their
Jewish heritage. The Jew is often more
afraid of looking Jewish than of looking non-Jewish. In other words, the Jew fears men more than
God. To be sure, Jewish life can be
complicated and challenging, even without the commandments, but to avoid the
challenges out of fear is not fearing God, it is
fearing men.
And the Muslim? He fears God, but so much that he believes
his passion is more important. This is a
temperament issue, which creates a climate of fearing these men rather than
God. It is an old problem which many
cultures pass through. It is barbarism
mixed with theology. The barbarism is
not in Torah but in the Muslim administration of it, which rightly belongs to
the Jews, which ownership neither the Christians nor the Muslims can claim
through any deficit of the Jews.
In
sum, the fear of God ought to create our courts, our cultures and our free
societies, but we instead see too much tolerance and rebellion on one hand, too
much fervor and bloodiness on the other.
It is not the fault of Torah that men cannot simply follow and
obey. It is not the fault of God for
fashioning man with these behaviors. God
has made no error in either the Law or in His creation. We are given free will, and are free to
disobey, but not without repercussions and acquisition of sin.
Perhaps
I've written too many words on this subject.
If so, hear this simple thing: We
keep the commandments because God said so.

613.7: LOVE GOD WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT (Deuteronomy 6:5)
There
are at least two major parts to this extremely important commandment, which is
often overlooked as a commandment, even by the best of intentions.
The
first part of this commandment is to love God.
Did you know it was a commandment?
Did you know you have no choice?
“But wait, how can love be commanded?”
Ah, but do you know what “love” is? Let me tell you. Love is sacrifice.
When
we love someone, we give up something for them.
Love your parents? You sacrifice resentments against them. Love your husband or wife? You sacrifice being with anyone else. Love your children? You sacrifice personal objectives. The amount you sacrifice equals the amount
you love.
Sometimes
we sacrifice too much. Psychologists run
to label this sacrifice negatively. If
you sacrifice for the sake of desire, you are labeled “obsessed.” If you sacrifice for the sake of need, you
are labeled “co-dependent.” Sometimes if
sacrifice becomes resentment, the relationship is called “toxic.” Naturally, categorization of sacrifice is
dangerous.
For
example, if you love to help people, you might sacrifice all, and become a
champion, such as Mother Teresa. Was she
“obsessed”? Most would say she was not
obsessed, simply because it is tough to criticize someone that dedicated. Also, she was a champion. And it didn’t hurt
her good name to be on the side of the poor.
But of course, someone who champions the rich is called a lobbyist, not
Mother Teresa. So, if you are seeking to
avoid criticism in your sacrifice, in your love, it helps to pursue what others
think is worthy. But, you may say, pfah!
It is
said we cannot control who we love. This
is true where is concerns emotions and chemical
reactions. But sacrifice is an action.
And actions are easier said and thought than done. But whereas we cannot quite control emotions
and chemicals, we can control
action. You may wake up one morning, and
say, “I don’t love my wife today.” But
if you treat her with respect, appreciate her actions, and do not cheat on her,
you have loved her, whether you feel it or not.
You do love her when you
sacrifice your emotions for your action.
To
love God is no different. You may wake
up today and say, “I don’t like God” or even “I hate God” or perhaps “There is
no God.” But if you treat God with
respect, appreciate God’s actions, and do not cheat on God, you love God. Let’s examine this.
(1) To
treat God with respect is to respect God’s work. There are two forms of God’s work to
respect. One is the planet we live on,
and the people who live on the planet.
When we respect there is a creation, and creations, we respect God. To respect the work itself
is a bit too complicated to discuss here, as people have varying ideas of what
it is to respect the Earth or people.
The other form of God’s work to respect is the Law of God. There is a Law of God. There must be, and it is one Law. He did not make a different Law for different
people, even if some commandments are meant for a certain group, such as
women. When you respect God, you respect
His Law. Jesus in Matthew 5:19 said that the greatest is one who keeps the
least commandment and teaches it. This
is the highest respect for God.
Regardless of your emotions for God on any given day, you strive to keep
and teach the commandments. Not your
will, but His.
(2) To
appreciate God’s actions is, at minimum, not to look down upon them. Where it
concerns people, this can be difficult, because people in general are
disappointing, especially in their views on societal cohesiveness. Where it concerns the Earth, this is often
easier, although, again, people differ regarding how to preserve it. Where it concerns God’s Law, appreciation
means not to despise the Law to the point where you teach against it. Teaching against the least commandment is
blasphemy, to be avoided. Again, in Matthew 5:19, Jesus said that whoever does
not keep the least commandment and
teaches against it, this person is the worst (“least”).
(3) To
not cheat on God is to have no other gods before Him. This is easy if you follow His Law. To sacrifice is love, and therefore loyalty
is measured by performance of duty, no matter how you feel about it.
This
is the short story on love and loving God.
But
now, how can it be commanded to love with all your heart, soul, and might? Your heart is your feeling. Your soul is your intention towards God. Your might is your action. The key is that “your heart” is different
than others, as is “your soul” and “your might.” Your personal abilities are different from
everyone else’s, from the day you are born. Only you and God know your heart and soul,
and sometimes even you don’t know them, only God does. Therefore, one cannot judge the heart and
soul of another, not between persons, not in court. Intent is difficult to prove. But God knows. He created your heart and soul, so he knows
your ultimate capacity. Furthermore,
every day is a challenge. Your heart
cannot be expected to perform at the same level every day without fail. Your intent cannot be measured the same every
day. Thus, “your heart” and “your soul”
is what you can do right now.
But
“your might” is easier to measure. Your
physical capacity can be observed, whether you are whole or disabled. Your actions can therefore be decided as
“all” or “not all” of your might, based on what you can actually do.
If you are able, therefore, to keep a commandment, and do not keep it,
there must be a judgment from God, based on where you are today, whether you
were unable or merely lazy, or rebellious.
Fear
not, however. God is merciful to forgive
if you ask forgiveness. Perhaps the
hardest thing to do is to admit you are wrong and say you are sorry. This is hard enough between people, harder
between a person and the Lord.
Therefore, if you do ask forgiveness, you have done a hard thing. But, we cannot simply not do, and then ask to
be forgiven. We must try. We must actually try with all our heart,
soul, and might. It’s not a suggestion,
it’s a commandment. God is not a human
being, and therefore He can see, where others cannot, just how much you really
tried, and He appreciates you and your efforts in ways no person can. This is key.

Today, #6.
613.6: GOD IS ONE (Deuteronomy
6:4)
Today
we tackle the easiest of commandments, that God is one. Oh wait, the Christians who profess to
believe in the One God have chosen to think of Him in several parts. Why?
Obviously, it’s easier to relate to a God who has a human side, but
relating to God is not the purpose of Law or gospel. The purpose of Law is to follow it if you are
part of that society/community. The
purpose of gospel is to tell everyone how great life would be if we would just
follow that Law. Unfortunately, the
Christians have glommed onto the shiny part of that purpose, which is the end
result, which is salvation. They do not
believe the gospel is to spread the word of God, that is, the Law. They believe the gospel is to spread the
WORKS of God, which is salvation, as if dispensation is the purpose of
conversion. As if God is seeking
salesmen rather than participants and contributors. As if God is seeking politicians and not
citizens.
If it
seems like the Law of God is fascist, it is.
Society cannot live in coexistence very long before differences are
noted and the hive cleansing begins.
With some races or cultures, this cleansing is harsh, with others a bit
more polished. But the purpose of the
cleansing is purity, which is what the Law commands, and, really, what the
gospel commands. What would Jesus
do? Jesus would first ask you nicely to
abstain from breaking the Law. Then
Jesus would come back as the judge of the world and, well, you know the
rest. So if Jesus does not seek
coexistence, why does Christianity?
For
some reason, Christianity believes Jesus came to perfect the Law rather than to
perfect people IN the Law. The Law does
not need perfecting. To say it does
means God is imperfect. Worse, it means
Jesus is better than God. Jesus himself
says that Jesus is only worthy of glory if he does what the father asks. This does not mean random requests, or even
the crucifixion. It means that Jesus is
only worthy of glory when Jesus follows the Law. When Jesus follows the Law, He and the Father
are one. One mind, one action, one
culture, one hegemony, one dominance. No coexistence among differing cultures or
laws. No Samaritan dogs, no
Gentiles. There is neither Greek nor Jew
under Christ… only the lawful. One Law, one people. In a word, fascism.
But GOOD fascism. A strong hand keeps the
community safe, clean, healthy. A strong
hand does not permit pagan ways or outside cultures to take over. Perhaps there is a temporary tolerance for
the stranger passing through, but there is no place, according to Law, for idolatry,
polytheism, male homosexuality, and a myriad of other things. So saith the
Law. So saith
Jesus (Matthew
To
therefore break God into three (or any number) is to imply that the parts are
necessary. They are not necessary. God is the
savior. God is the spirit. God is the maker of the law. None may change Him, or change His Law. He made no mistakes, and any perceived are
the error or desires of the human mind and heart. The changing of Law is the deference to
paganism and wickedness, to perversion and evil. Either this is true or it is not. If you therefore say Jesus changed the Law,
you say Jesus is a pagan, wicked, perverse or evil. Is He?
How can He be?
Even
the Christian doctrine says Jesus was perfect in the Law. If so, how can He break any commandment or
teach anyone to break any commandment?
He cannot. How can He change the
Law and say He is perfect in it? He
cannot. Only the desires of pagans
change God’s Law, and not through Jesus, but only through themselves. Christ says, “Many will say they did many
wonderful works in my name, but in the last days I will say I do not know them,
and they shall be banished to outer darkness, with wailing and gnashing of
teeth.” What does this mean? It means don’t change the Law, or else.
I pick
on Christianity because it is the fiercest defender of the Bible, yet refuses
to do what it says, or to follow Christ in His own lawfulness. Changing God to
three parts is sort of a panacea for this ailment, as it humanizes God, softens
Him to “understand” sin, and give a free ride just for acknowledging sin. But that’s not enough.
God is
One. There is
only one. God is merciful but only to
those who come to Him. You cannot come
to Him without also obeying Him. He does
not bend to you, you bend to Him.
Naturally,
this easily applies also to the pantheon religions, the Greeks, the Romans, the
Teutonic, who had a god for every happenstance.
Whoever today still believes there is a god for every natural event or
human activity simply cannot bend to One God.
These people require differing gods to bicker so they may feel secure in
the fallibility of their gods. Such gods
are not only fallible but also breakable.
Our One God is infallible and unbreakable, not in parts or
personalities, not in any error with bickering or wrestling. Our invisible God cannot be burned as wood
idols, or broken like stone idols.
One
means indivisible. Think about it.

613 COMMANDMENTS!
Today, #4-5.
613.4-5: HALLOWED BE THY NAME (Leviticus
The
commandments are to hallow God’s Name (positive) and to not profane His Name
(negative), which are co-equal. You
shall not profane, and you shall
hallow, God’s Name.
What is God’s Name that we should not
profane but instead hallow? Certainly,
it does not mean the three letters G-O-D, which Jews normally hyphenate as G-d,
as a form of respect. That’s fine, but
does this fulfill a commandment? Well,
it doesn’t break the commandment to
spell the word G-d, but it’s not as if those who spell G-O-D have broken the
commandment either. The word GOD is
itself reverential when it is capitalized, for it means the one in charge, or the one and only.
Then, is the name of God the tetragrammaton,
in other words, JHVH? Certainly, the
Jewish people forbid its use in reading from the Hebrew (which is spelled as,
and sounds like, “yee-yeh”), though it is certainly
written that way in Hebrew over and over again!
Instead, they substitute “Adonai” but oddly
speak it as “Ado-shem” or “Ha-Shem.” So the Jewish people, keepers of the Law, go
out of their way to avoid saying God’s name, even though the tetragrammaton is written
thousands of times in Torah and prayer books.
Have they “hallowed” His name by protecting sounds from out of the
mouth?
Naturally,
other cultures will say that God belongs also to them, and they have their own
pronunciations, sometimes sounding like “yee-yeh,”
sometimes not. The Christian’s “Yahweh” and “Jehovah” are uses of the tetragrammaton, as is the Islamic
“Allah,” both captures from the Hebrew in order to kidnap the Law of God.
But
the use or non-use of God’s Name in conversation or prayer is not hallowing or
profaning God’s Name. No, for once again
we fall prey to the trivial while remaining ignorant of the reason for the
commandment. For it is not the use of
God’s Name which is forbidden or approved, but rather the invocation of God as
an excuse for behavior and actions which are clearly against the Law of
God. For example…
Saying that God approves suicide in any degree. Whether for
mercy on the ailing, or for jihad in exploding oneself for glory, you committed
suicide, period. It is intentional
killing of the self, which is murder of the self, and murder is always
forbidden. The idea that God will look
the other way due to the extent of the misery which the cancerous patient
endures is not true. God never looks the
other way. That may sound harsh but it’s
still true. Likewise, the jihadi who kills for “war” against the infidel has not
engaged in warfare, but in a senseless killing of the self. “But, Tom… would
you rather the jihad be carried out at all?”
Of course not! But that’s not the
point. The question is, does the jihadi who blows himself up for the glory of Allah hallow
or profane God’s name? It is profane not
only because it is murder, but also because this suicide was done in the name
of God. There is certainly a difference
between mercy killing and jihad, but the part which is suicide can nevertheless
be extracted from both for observation.
Mercy killing and jihad are not ethically equal, but the immoral act is
equal to both, and profanes God’s name if He is invoked.
A
less-dramatic example of profaning God’s name is the eating of pork. When the Jew and Muslim refrains,
it is in accordance with the Law of God, and it is good. When the Christian eats pork, there is no
special permission and no change in Law.
The Law does not permit it, and Christ said He did not come to change a
bit of the Law. So how is it that the
Christian took Christ’s words that he wasn’t changing the Law and made them
into that he changed the Law? Simply,
the early church made compromises with pagans for the sake of expanding the
congregation. This is not conjecture, it’s in the New Testament. Paul made many compromises with non-Jewish
congregants, to the point that he took their side against the actual religion,
which was Torah. The Christian might
protest, “It’s not what goes in the mouth, it’s what comes out!” (paraphrasing Christ).
If that is so, the Christian should not be against me eating human
flesh. “Don’t be absurd, Tom!” I’m not, I’m taking
the breaking of the commandment, and the invocation of the paraphrase, to its
logical conclusion. If it’s not what
goes in the mouth that counts, any number of sins may be perpetrated this
way. The worst part is,
they invoke Christ, who they say is fully-God/fully-man, to justify this
sin. This is a profaning of God’s Name,
using it in any degree to justify sin.
This is blasphemy.
But
there is something more. God’s “name” is
as your name or my name. It has a
reputation and a power. If someone says,
“In the name of the king, I command thee…,” there is a power behind that
command, and if the reputation is strong enough, it motivates. If someone says, “In the name of Allah, I do
such-and-such,” it also carries weight.
Now, due to jihad, the weight of such a statement is often fear, but not fear of God.
This is because we know, through Torah, which commandments the jihadi breaks. In
this case, the name of God, as it were, has power, but the reputation is of
desperation, which ends in murder. In a
similar vein, the Christian says, “In the name of Jesus…” but follows up with
many pagan rituals and actions, not the least of which is tolerance of sin,
including abortion, male homosexuality, desecration, and blasphemy.
“But,
Tom, what would you have us do?” Look, I
realize that in the end, as it says in Revelation, God will have to destroy
because we have profaned and profaned, so that the very dust of the Earth
carries overbearing and overflowing sin which must be burned out. The very elements must be melted and then
reconstituted. But just because the good
book says it ends in annihilation doesn’t mean I have to accept it without a
fight. I admire any religion which has
the guts to tell the world, “No! Do not profane God’s name.” If the Muslim fanatics were not murderers,
rapists, and hypocrites, they might have something. But as it is, they have made it worse, by
profaning God’s name in the name of saving God’s name from being profaned!
How
then should we hallow God’s name? First, His Law. Make
it part of your life. Second,
His promises. Make it a point to
not only obey the Law but also to repent for your sins, for redemption. He is Good and
Faithful to cleanse if we ask for His Grace and forgiveness. The commandment to keep Yom Kippur is proof
of that. Third, we should not seek to
sanctify our actions in His name, neither war nor suicide nor killing nor
eating. Indeed, all of our righteousness
is like a filthy rag, but… that doesn’t mean we get a pass, or that God looks
the other way, or that we can blame God because He made us this way. Even if this is a grand experiment, we, the
subjects, have some responsibility to comport to what God expects from us, or
at least hopes for us. The scientist does
not take the blame if the culture in the Petri dish fails to perform as planned, he merely throws it out and starts over. Do not blame God for making you this
way. Do not curse God for the Law, which
is His finest. Do not spit on life,
which He made. Do not think God is not
involved, for He is mindful of all things.
Do not think there is no God, for you do not want to find out how very
wrong you are here, for God is a reality, not a hope (see 603.1).

613.3: BLASPHEMY! (Exodus
22:27, Leviticus 24:16)
We
have a mistaken notion of blasphemy. We
think it is saying something a bit cynical or mean about God,
or something nasty about religion, or even a denial of Jesus Christ. As for Jesus, he said, “You can blaspheme me
(the son of Man) but don’t blaspheme the Holy Spirit, for that is the
unforgivable sin” (Mark
Unforgivable
sin is part of the doctrine for Jews (any deliberate sin), Catholics (a
multitude of things), Protestants (not accepting Jesus), Muslims (shirk), and
Buddhists (anantarika-karma). Each of these has a thing in common, which is
the deliberate premeditated act. Now,
due to our selfish and arrogant ways, we tend to think our own deliberate sins
are much less offensive to God than the deliberate sins of others. This is called HYPOCRISY and double
standard. Obviously, God does not regard
your sins, deliberate or otherwise, with any less mind of justice. In other words, God does not play favorites
when it comes to sin. To teach therefore
that God regards your sin as less egregious than the sin of another is to teach
against the justice, or Spirit, of God.
The Spirit of God, which created the universe, also created the Law of
God for men. To teach therefore that the
Spirit of God plays favorites with the Law, or regards your sin as “not as bad”
as the other fellow’s sin, is to teach not only against the justice of God, but
also against the justice of the Law of God.
In
Matthew 5:19, Jesus solidifies this truth, when he says, “Whoever breaks the
least commandment AND teaches against it shall be called least in heaven.” Take the meaning of “in heaven” any way you
like, but if you break the least commandment in the Law of God AND teach
against that least commandment, you are LEAST, that is, lowest of all
things. Pretty bad.
Religions scramble to give selfish and arrogant humans
an answer to the question, “If I commit a deliberate
sin, am I doomed?” The Protestants say,
“The only unforgivable is not accepting Christ.” But that is NOT what Christ said in Matthew
5:19. He said you are in very bad shape
when you teach against the least
Jesus said that if you teach against the least commandment, you are the
lowest. What is the “least
commandment”? Why, whichever commandment
you think is least! Do you think refraining from pork is the
least commandment? Keep that to
yourself! Teach against that commandment
and you are lowest in God’s eyes. Do you
think wearing a garment of wool and linen is no big deal? Don’t teach against that commandment, or you
are the least in God’s eyes. Get the
picture?
It is not that breaking a commandment of God is
unforgivable. It is breaking the
commandment and teaching to break
the commandment, together, which is
unforgivable. Everyone breaks
commandments. It’s unavoidable. But to
teach that what you did, deliberately against the commandment, God accepts, is
not only wrong, it is the WORST thing you can do. It is arrogance. It is arrogance against the justice of
God. No one is exempt from the justice of
God, not even the person who believes He is exempt by accepting Jesus, Allah,
dharma, an atonement, or any other thing. It may be you are acceptable to God, through
your repentance, but this is dependent on not teaching against any least
commandment.
The unforgivable sin is thus deliberate sin plus teaching that you are exempt from
punishment for that deliberate sin, whether such exemption arises due to your
accepting a token from God (such as Jesus) or your rejection of the entire
theory of celestial justice (“God isn’t micro-managing” – “God forgives all” –
“There is not God” – etc). This is blasphemy.
Blasphemy then, in its simplest definition, is
teaching others that it is acceptable, even fine, to commit deliberate sins
against the Law of God. Blasphemy is
against God not when it is personal (“God is [this or that]”) but when it is
about His business, which is the business of Law.
When the Christian therefore eats pork deliberately,
it is a deliberate sin. Is this
forgivable? Perhaps,
but not, however, because the Christian accepted Jesus, or that Jesus made pork
acceptable, but because the Christian is taught at the pulpit to accept such
things. Such a Christian is
ignorant, not deliberate. But, once a Christian is no longer
ignorant, and learns Matthew 5:19, and sees that even the “least” commandment
cannot be broken with impunity, and continues to eat pork, and teaches that it is acceptable to eat pork, that is unforgivable
sin. That is blasphemy.
Why not give up the bacon? Apparently, bacon and pork are essential
elements to good health. Of course, I’m
being facetious. Rather, the Christian
treats bacon and pork (and ham and shrimp and tattoos, and so on) as tokens of
his faith. In other words, eating pork
is evidence of the Christian’s faith in the redemption of Christ. In other words, Christ came to change the
Law, or if He didn’t come specifically for that, it was a happy
side-effect. None of this is true.
The least commandment, the one you think is stupid,
the one you think is ridiculous, the one you think is overcome by the blood of
Jesus, or His works, or your faith, is the one which Jesus Christ says is most important when it comes to the way
you are viewed in heaven. He says also,
“He who KEEPS the least commandment, AND teaches others to do so, shall be
called GREATEST in heaven.” So, you see,
it’s not a one-way street. It’s not just
blasphemy for breaking and teaching against the least commandment, it is also
high regard for keeping, and teaching to keep, the least commandment.
In a Torah society, blasphemy, when proven in a court
of law, requires death as the penalty.
Why? First, society cannot last
long under a multiplicity of behaviors towards its Law. If one permits intentional breaking of
commandments, one cannot also have a Torah society. So cultural domination is
lost when blasphemy is permitted.
Hegemony goes to the most forceful behavior. Death as a penalty is a deterrent against
losing that hegemony. Second, God said
so. Part of the commandment against
blasphemy is death to the proven lawbreaker.
To refrain from the punishment for blasphemy is to intentionally break
that commandment. In other words, to not require death as the penalty for
blasphemy is blasphemy. The commandments tell us that the judges have
no choice when it comes to penalty, and are themselves worthy of whichever
penalty they refuse to apply! Yes, Torah
is tough on lawbreakers. So don’t break
the law! But if you do, don’t teach it
is OK to break that law!
For the Christian and Jew (if not the world), the
commandments to keep and teach are Torah.
We know this because Jesus was born Jewish, was circumcised, learned at
the Temple, taught at the Temple, kept the Passover and other laws, and fought
with the Pharisees and Sanhedrin over points of Torah, over legalities. We do not see Jesus commit any deliberate sin
against Torah, nor is that His intention, and He certainly does not teach to
break any commandment. How then does the
Christian believe he may do what Christ did not do?

613.2: WHICH GOD? (Exodus
20:3)
Having
satisfied that God does exist, in
fact must exist, the next logical
question is, Which God? There is no
question that human history has provided a good number of deities from which to
choose. Therefore, religions exist simultaneously,
setting up confrontations and wars between different cultures and different
countries, right? Not
exactly.
Even
where the culture is common, and the religion is fundamentally the same, there
have been great battles fought for dominance and dominion. Islam, for example, wars with itself, between
Sunni and Shia, to the death and with great
bloodshed, though both worship Allah and read Koran. Christianity has an innate rift between the
more ancient Catholicism and the newer Protestantism, but also early
Christianity fought with blood between Arius and Aristarchus, essentially over finer points of the trinity,
and Protestantism during the Reformation waged wars of splintering. Buddhism is not exempt either, having fought,
and continuing to fight, sectarian wars not only of culture (as between
As for
war between the religions, this is more widespread in the literature. The Crusades between Christianity and Islam
comes immediately to mind. Islamic ideas of world domination, a constant struggle in
I have
framed the issue this way initially in order to provoke the common response, that the inability of all humanity to choose one
God for worship and religion has caused, and will cause, immeasurable trouble
and innumerable death. Therefore, we
hear that religion is bad. This is a
false conclusion.
In the
first place, religion is necessary. It
is the organization of worship. Worship
itself is necessary, to satisfy the innate urge of human beings who recognize
the fact that God exists. To refrain from worship of God is to deny the science
and math that God exists (see 613.1).
Therefore, to refrain from religion is to either (1) believe that God,
who exists, seeks no more than to be recognized as existing, or (2) not believe
in the existence of God.
Regarding
atheism, not believing in the existence of God, it is against science and math
to hold such a belief. Therefore, the
true nature of atheism cannot be superiority of intellect. Instead, atheism is the desire to be free
from the limitations which God puts upon mankind, through His Law. For if there is a God, He
has a Law. If we say God does not
have a Law for mankind, we are hedonists.
If we say God does have a Law for mankind, but we shall not obey it, we
are hedonists. Even if we say God does
have a Law for mankind , but we cannot be sure what is
the Law, and therefore we are abstaining from obedience until the truth is
known, we are hedonists. And certainly,
to say there is no God is also to be a hedonist. For if no God, then no Law
of God. What is a hedonist? Someone who puts their own
pleasure above any law which limits that pleasure. A marijuana smoker is a hedonist when he
imbibes where it is not legal. Under
Torah, which we say is God’s Law, smoking marijuana is no sin, and therefore is
not a hedonism against God. Smoking marijuana is only a
hedonism under civil law. Male
homosexuality, however, is always a hedonism, being
against Torah, even if the civil law has decriminalized it in society. It is therefore that the male homosexual
cannot abide under Torah, either forced by conscience to change his ways
(whether born that way or not), or else forced by circumstances to struggle
against Torah, whether that means to dilute Torah, to ignore Torah, or to
actively fight against Torah. It becomes
thus a choice between religion and irreligion, a war between religion and
anti-religion. Where this war becomes
embittered enough, there is death.
Islam, for example, seeks out the homosexual to kill him, or her,
publicly, as a matter of purity, and indeed it is a war against hedonism
(Islamic hypocrisy notwithstanding). But
(lest ye think it a one-way street) when atheism is in control, it is religion
which suffers slaughter. The communist states,
which take irreligion as one of their three main tenets, have persecuted the
churches and executed many. The number
of deaths which the communist states have in total committed (about 100
million) exceed by far the number of deaths committed in the name of God. And let us not forget the French
Revolution. Atheism, or irreligion,
cannot therefore be named as the logical or more humane alternative to
religion. In fact, it is deadlier.
When
John Lennon sings, "Imagine there's no heaven, it isn't hard to do,
nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too," he is completely
wrong. It IS hard to imagine there is no
heaven. About 90% of the planet believes
heaven in one form or another. It is not that 90% of the people are stupid,
backward, unenlightened, or stubborn. It
is their innate belief, which, if you believe in evolution, cannot be
dismissed, reeducated, or killed off. The numbers don’t lie. An atheist has a 9 in 10 chance of having a
child who will believe in God and heaven.
Probably the numbers are higher if you include that most atheists are
made, not born. So John Lennon is very
wrong about being able to imagine there is no heaven. Likewise, he is incorrect that, without ideas
of heaven, religion would die. Religion
is not exclusively about heaven. Heaven
is reward, in an afterlife. We also have
to live now. Religion tells us how to live. Religion
provides laws of limitation to prevent hurt and trespass against others,
commandments of sacrifice and pleasing God, and rules of lifestyle for food,
sex, and other touchy subjects. This is
true of any religion. Religion therefore
seeks to keep society together, through rules and laws. But if you say religion is not the answer,
what is? Irreligion is not the answer,
this is clear. Without religion and
heaven, there shall still be a law to rule society, and if it is irreligion it
shall kill and die for that ideal, and if it is “coexistence” it cannot be held
together without force, especially force of the law. Indeed, the law is power, and your only
question is, and shall be, which Law do you wish to live under? This choice, which is most important, shall
determine which God.
So let
us not say, “If only there were no religion, there would be peace.” It is not possible for religion to cease,
because thoughts of heaven are innate, and also because laws for society are
necessary. On the other hand, it is not
possible for hedonism to cease, and therefore hedonism, and those who enable
hedonism, shall war constantly with religion.
Now, you
might say, what right or business has religion to butt into the lives of many
or any? Perhaps you believe society can
live without the Law of God? To live
without the Law of God is to invite many evils.
The first evil is savagery, to live the law of the jungle, to live the
law of kill or be killed. This savagery
is also inherent in atheism. Naturally,
many will say that the Law of God is savage, commanding us to kill, for
example, the male homosexual. And while I might fight this notion, by saying,
first, that no one is forcing the male homosexual to be a homosexual, or that
no one is forcing him to be public with his homosexuality, or that the Law of
God demands witnesses for any trial, I do not deny that, at the end of such
trial which finds such a man guilty of such an act, there is death. But this is not hypocrisy, for we do not say
that religion is for peace or tolerance.
Jesus Christ, who is often looked upon as this bastion of peace and
tolerance, said, “I did not come to bring peace, but a sword” (Matthew
So it
is not religion, or thoughts of heaven or God, which rankles
the atheist. Rather, it is the Law of
God which upsets the atheist and the hedonist. The atheist feels oppressed by surrounding
religion and therefore makes protest to the government to “protect” him from
such oppression, and, when the government obliges, it is religion which then
becomes oppressed. Merely
a reversal, not a coexistence (which is anyway not possible). The hedonist likewise feels this oppression,
makes these protests, and reverses power when the government obliges. This war is not due to religion, this war is
due to a struggle over “which law.” It
shall always boil down to this: Which Law
shall prevail?
Buddhists
love the way of Buddha. Christians love
the way of Christ. Or, at least, they
love their IDEA of the way of Buddha, or their IDEA of the way of Christ. Buddhists seek to escape pain by ceasing
striving. Christians seek to escape pain
by faith in resurrection, if not Rapture.
These are the carrots which motivate, which
those who teach motivation classes say must be set out in front of the human
being, to make him obey. Obey? Yes, carrots are there to cause obedience to
rules, programs, twelve-steps, and laws.
There is reward for doing things right.
But there is also a stick, punishment for doing things wrong. Those who say God is all-forgiving are
disavowing the stick, acknowledging only the carrot. George Carlin, the comedian, said he believed
in a “big electron” which did not judge or punish but just “is.” This is wishful thinking.
For if
we acknowledge that God created the universe, and did so through scientific
means and ways, through laws of nature, in other words, why would He create
commandments for every object in the universe, the galaxies and planets and
winds and animals and plants, but not create commandments for human
beings? Only the arrogance of humanity,
that we are created to enjoy the bounty, but have no further responsibility to
God or ourselves or our universe, would cause such an utterance. How arrogant indeed that a man would say he
alone, or those like him, are exempt from the Law of God. In fact, these are the thoughts of the
hedonist, weak in the law, who shall be conquered by the savage, strong in the
law. Why the savage and why not the
moral? There is another
arrogance amongst the moral, that they have a burden to be more decent
and civil, even if such burden takes them away from the actual Law they say
commands them to be decent and civil! In
other words, the moral are too nice, and therefore, when taken away from the
violence inherent in the law, they become hedonists themselves. Only when the moral enforce the law,
according to the procedure in the law, are they not hedonists, not weak, and
not subject to conquest by the savage.
The
second evil which stems from living without God is communism, which we have
already discussed as a worse alternative to religion. The third evil is corruption, which is use of
the law for personal gain rather than for societal good. Corruption creeps into everything, naturally
so, elevated by human nature to uplift one's personal empowerment or standard
of living. When the Law of God
dominates, there can be no corruption, only deviation. When God rules, man cannot
do evil, even if there is violence inherent in the Law. Domination by Torah is thus infinitely better
than domination by men. The fourth evil
is crime. This is simply non-adherence
to law. As previously mentioned, the marijuana
smoker breaks the law of man, not the Law of God, so it is not abhorrent. But the thief, even in his pettiness, is abhorrent, breaking the Law of
God. Without God's Law, crime becomes
relative, according to the mood of the judge or jury. But God's Law is clear, and those who deny
and break His Law, including judges and juries who fail to enforce the Law, are
criminals also, despite their “good” intentions. The fifth evil is hedonism, which is the
hardest thing to surrender, the easiest thing to accept, and that which is
manipulated by all other evils. Where
hedonism is promised, evil is elected.
If God
is a construct of man, we still must choose between God and man, between God's
Law and man's law. If we choose man's
law, we are subject to the whims of men.
If we choose God's Law, we are only subject to that which is already
written (even if we also are subject to civil law). To reject God and His Law is to therefore
choose slavery and death. To accept God
and God's Law is to limit the control men have over other men. In either case, men will control men, but at
least with God's Law it is limited to the written word and interpretations
thereof.
How does this help us to choose which God? Which God is best? We may dispense with any religion which
reveres the creations of God, such as sun-worship, cat-worship, rain-worship,
and so forth. We may also dispense with
any religion which reveres a non-judgmental god, for this is merely arrogance
and wishful thinking, as previously discussed.
We may also dispense with any religion which reveres a multiplicity of
gods, mythologies Roman, Greek, Egyptian, Teutonic, Hindu, and so forth. Why?
In every case, there is a chief "god." If there is a chief god, why are there
smaller gods to revere, in whichever measure?
All gods, including God, are jealous, and it therefore makes no sense to
tempt the wrath of the strongest god by including any weaker god in worship,
even if the chief god commands it. We
may also dispense with any religion which uses a totem or idol of any
kind. Any material thing is
destructible. Wood may be burned, stone
may be broken, and so on, but God is indestructible. Too, God is invisible, so any totem or idol
is a sacrilege, a blasphemy, even if in the true likeness of God, if that were
possible. We may also dispense with
philosophy posing as religion. Whether
the philosophy is strong in law (Confucianism) or weak in law (Buddhism),
philosophy is not eternal as is the Law of God.
Even where law is transcendent (Zen, Tao), there is a way. Law cannot be merely tossed without
consequence, and every great philosophy understands this. Even Buddhism, which thinks itself not
susceptible, finds itself full of idolatry (Buddha did not want to be
worshipped) and hedonism (the Western form of Buddhism). Stronger Law must therefore be considered
better, even if many complain their hedonisms are constricted by it.
After this, what remains is a monotheistic religion which
reveres an invisible God. This includes
Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Sikhism.
Sikhism is latter-day. Islam and Christianity spring from Judaism, worshipping essentially
the same God, and obeying (or disobeying) essentially the same Law of God,
Torah. Torah is ancient, contains
language which makes it non-amendable, has suffered the requisite persecution
under a tiny minority of human population, has remained dominant even under
unlawful amendment, and is the backbone for our most revered documents, the
Magna Carta and the Constitution of the United
States. Flawed though all things may be,
it is in comparison to actual Torah. The
Constitution is amendable where Torah is not.
Likewise, Christianity has amended Torah by doctrine to permit unlawful
things, such as pork, tattoos, and even idols, if you count the crucifix and
statues of Mary and Jesus. Excepting
Judaism, Islam has come closest to keeping Torah, but, like Korah
of Exodus, has done so with their own separate and
illegal congregations, which administer this Torah (tawrot)
through a judicial system which is not only ultra-violent but also not
permitted by Torah. Islam is
self-defeating.
But even the Jews, commanded by Torah to be a separate
people, distinguished also by physical distinctions, instead seek to assimilate
with the Gentiles, for reasons of security and fitting in, if not outright
hedonism. This assimilation has been the
cause of much trouble for the Jews, who are generally blamed for the ills of a
society in which they had no business anyway.
This is not to blame the Jews for the Holocaust, or any economic woes of
any country, only to say that adherence to Torah would have prevented even the
perception that the Jews must be hunted down.
But this is not all of it, for the Jews have been persecuted just for
being Jews, even when they mind their own business. Why are the Jews so persecuted? Because they are the bearers of the Law which
is most despised. Why is
Torah most despised? Because it clamps down hardest on hedonism. Is not Koran most despised? Even if so, Koran derives deliberately and
closely from Torah, so it is still Torah which is despised. And
because it is most despised, this is the best reason to choose Torah as the Law
of God.
The main issue then with Torah, and belief in it as the Law
of God, and thus of men, is that adherence to Torah takes away from hedonism,
and causes, often for no apparent reason, persecution of those who uplift
Torah. It seems easier for men to agree
with each other, tolerate their hedonisms, and keep religion in a meek fashion,
all for the sake of peace. But such meek
and weak people are ripe for picking by savages, criminals, the corrupt, and
the communists. Abstaining from Law does
not make peace, only a power vacuum which must and will be filled.
Is there no compromise?
Is there no coexistence? There is
not. There is one God. If there is not one God, there are not many
gods. If there is not God, there is man.
If there is man and not God, there is evil. There is no evil with God, even if there is
violence inherent in the Law. Dispensing
with God does not make an accident any less tragic, or failures any less
painful. Dispensing with God only leaves
one without hope of rescue. Luck, as it
were, becomes the new god, praying for good luck, praying against bad
luck. There is no "rational
man" who is completely at ease without God. There is no rational man completely at ease
without a strong law. The only thing
missing for the rational man is that God has not personally appeared before
him. But even this thought is flawed,
for, as we’ve already discussed, reality itself is the revelation of God.
Who is God? Torah
tells us who God is, "the God who brought you out of the
Torah is, for all intents and purposes, the Law of God for
the entire Earth, which means the true God is the one who gave this ancient,
complete, non-amendable, enduring, and persecuted Law to Moses.
What if you scoff?
What are you scoffing at? Do you
want law or no law? You want law. Do you want man's law or God's Law? You want God's Law. Do you want your own law? You are just as much a hypocrite to your own
law as anyone else is to their law, including Torah. Evading Torah for your own law will not make
you less of a hypocrite or lawbreaker, only more lenient on yourself when you
are or do. You as your own god will be a
complete farce. You are neither faithful
to yourself nor do you believe it. When
the chips are down, you will look to a higher power, whether it be the God of Torah or some other. Or do you think you will courageously go down
with the ship?
True, many successful people do not worship God. Some worship Satan. Some worship trees and rocks. Some worship Buddha. I never said the human race had a shortage of
gods or laws, or a shortage of philosophies or anti-philosophies, or a shortage
of cynics and disbelievers. My point is,
you must choose, and the path you choose will be the law you choose. So, which Law? That answer will determine, Which God?

613 COMMANDMENTS!
Today, we begin with #1.
613.1: DOES GOD EXIST? (Exodus 20:2, Deuteronomy 5:6)
Leave
off for a moment “Which God?” The
question is, does God exist? If He does exist, the creation of the
universe is easy enough. This is true
whether He creates the universe in an instant or over billions of years. What difference how long it takes to create
if we know God did it? But if God does
NOT exist, what created the universe?
If we
say the universe always existed, intrinsically, forever as it were, we have
merely taken God, the ever-present, out of the equation but still left His
eternal imprint upon the answer. If we
say, “The universe always was,” but refuse to acknowledge the eternity of God,
are we not treading in hypocrisy? Why
would we accept the universe as eternal, on faith, but reject an eternal
God? If we say there is a science which
makes the universe eternal, aren’t there things in the universe which must be
eternal also? Since this MUST be true,
under this hypothesis, that an eternal universe is composed of eternal things,
why dismiss the possibility of an eternal God?
Is it because we, as mortals, view only non-living things, such as rock
or gas, as eternal, but anything living as finite and mortal? But I ask, if the
non-living things comprise the eternal universe, where did those non-living
things come from? Shall we say the
solids came from gases? Where did the
gases come from? Shall we say the gases
came from pure eternal energy? Where did
the pure eternal energy come from? Shall
we say the pure eternal energy came from another dimension? Where did that other dimension come
from? And so on, ad infinitum. Eventually, “where did that come from?” leads
us to the eternal thing or things which are, or have been, basis for all other
things. We cannot say ALL things in the
eternal universe are eternal, for those things which are mortal surely come
after, and have come from, the eternal things.
The mortal cannot give birth to the immortal. Only the immortal, the eternal, can give
birth to the mortal. So we cannot say
human consciousness is the eternal thing which predates, and therefore we
cannot say that we, by our consciousness, created the universe. But if we did say such a thing, have we not
said there is an eternal consciousness which creates? And if we say there is an eternal
consciousness which creates, how do we not call that eternal consciousness
God? Or, shall we say WE are God? If so, why are we mortal? But if it is only our bodies which are mortal,
but our consciousness is immortal, eternal, do we not have an eternal
spirit? Where did THAT come from? Did we create ourselves? If we did, why did we create ourselves as
mortal, flawed, and without memory that we are immortal and eternal, except we
have religion among us, which posits an immortal soul? But if I have an immortal soul, is my eternal
soul an individual independent immortal consciousness, or is it under control
by an even greater eternal consciousness, which we call God? Any hypothesis of an eternal universe which
contains mortal beings must explain how an eternal thing creates, or permits to
create, a mortal thing. What does an
eternal thing know of mortality? What
sort of transformation causes eternal things to transmute to mortal things? We know it can be done in the laboratory,
where, under the right conditions, inorganic things can be turned into organic
things. But this is done under the
direction of a creator, the scientist, who replicates a process. This scientist discovers the process, but
does not invent it. Who invented
it? But if you say the process was of
chaos, and no one invented it, that is, there is no God, how does chaos turn
the eternal into the mortal? Where does
chaos get this power? And, anyway, where
did chaos come from? Do you see?
As we
have already noted, mortal things must come from eternal things, which is why
the theory of the eternal universe still endures, though that theory is
weak. That weak theory explains much
while showing very little. In fact, the
theory of the eternal universe is just a way to take God out of the equation
while retaining all the eternal qualities of God. But the theory of a universe which did NOT
always exist takes God out of it altogether, right? Not at all.
If we
say the universe did not always exist, is NOT eternal, we must ask how
“nothing” came to be “something,” or how “something” came from “nothing.” Again, we speak of process. The scientist who claims to create life from
non-living substance has only utilized a substance which already exists. There is a joke that goes: A scientist tells
God, “I can create life also.” God tells
the scientist to go ahead and do so. The
scientist picks up a handful of dust to begin the process, but God stops the
scientist and says, “Make your OWN dust.”
This is the conundrum of the joke: Where did dust come from? Is the scientist able to provide his own
building blocks, or does the scientist begin with
things which already exist? The weak
theory of the eternal universe provides an answer to this riddle without
explaining it, which puts God into the equation without saying “God.” But the theory of something from nothing is
ALSO without explanation, only from a different angle. Whereas the theory of the eternal universe
circumvents Creation, the theory of something from nothing circumvents Natural
Law. What natural law provides for the
creation of energy from nothing? What
natural law provides for the creation of matter from nothing? There are none. There are in fact “laws of conservation”
which prevent the creation of any new energy into the universe. Energy cannot be created. Energy can only be unlocked, as from burning wood, or splitting an atom, or smashing
an atomic particle. Something from
nothing is in fact prevented by the science!
Why then is such hypothesis popular?
Likely because it sweeps away the hypothesis of the eternal universe,
which for many is too close for comfort to a notion of God.
It is a prejudice against God.
But the hypothesis of something from nothing is also close to God, for where does such power originate?
Those
who sweep away “origination” as not a scientific pursuit, saying we cannot
speak about that which cannot be quantified, are not only hypocrites to their
own scientific pursuit, but also hypocrites to those things which are yet
unknown or invisible which they rely upon each day, even without thinking about
it. For example, whether or not they
have a thing called a “personality.” The
personality cannot be placed in a test tube, but it exists as a matter of
result. It makes the flesh animated with
spirit, and thought, and guides the emotional chemistry. No one would deny the existence of
personality, but it cannot be seen outside the effect it has on the body it
inhabits.
Likewise,
God is invisible, but His effects are evident.
The most important effect of God is the existence of Order. Only under God is the existence of order to
be called “natural.” Without God, any
unifying force of order which is not named “God” has only been renamed as a way of dissecting the
forces which God sets in motion. For example, gravity.
You may quantify the effects of gravity, even posit a singular building
block called a graviton, but I will still ask you, “Where did THAT come
from?” Gravity is not chaotic, but of
order. Where there is gravity, it works
within its parameters on every object within its sphere of influence. Therefore, gravity is ordered. Therefore, gravity is ordered by SOMETHING.
And it
is not ONLY gravity which is ordered.
Genetics, for example, is ordered so that human beings give birth to
human beings and not frogs or oak trees, though the scientist
would have you believe we are all so closely related by
The
fact that beings reproduce at all is not intrinsic to life but is rather an
evidence of God. What do I mean by
this? If we say the mortal came from the
eternal, it means the mortal was not always here, but was created by some process. If the process came from randomness, this
process should be considered rare. Rare because any random process is neither directed nor repeatable. If life originated from randomness, there was
no scientist (God) laying out the many steps in a controlled environment, and
therefore life originated from chaos, with only one chance to succeed. “Only
one chance” because we cannot make wild claims that life may originate from any
number of paths. But even if that were
possible, environment is important.
Under randomness, we cannot say Life was created to suit the environment, only that, by chance, the environment just
happened to suit that very rare moment when Life was created. This is only the first miracle! Then, such
Life created must find food to sustain it.
Under randomness, we cannot say Life was created to suit the food available,
only that, by chance, the food available just happened to not be poison to that
random life-form. A miracle! Then, such life-form must be able to digest
such food, and to excrete the waste product.
How is it that Life was created with such organic
systems in place already, and which
suited the environment?! How is it that
Life was created with the correct breathing apparatus? Then, how is it that Life was created with a
reproductive system? Think how
miraculous this all is. Under randomness,
the creation of Life should be considered rare and non-repeatable, meaning
there is one chance to succeed. There is
no “urging of Life” to “try again” or “get it right.” Yet, the “random” first life-form just happened to be created into an
environment where it was able to breathe the air and eat the food available,
without being poisoned? It had breathing
apparatus and a digestive system? Wow!
But this first life-form ALSO just happened to be able to reproduce,
having a system for it!? Now, you may say
such life-form “evolved” from amino acids, but then I must ask you where the
amino acids came from, and how did they acquire such abilities, and how did
they come to have their own systems of reproduction?
Do you
see? Under randomness, or chaos, Life
has virtually no chance of coming into existence. The eternal universe has no purpose to create
a mortal thing. The mortal thing has no
idea which life-support systems are required for the time and place where it
comes to exist. Reproduction from genesis
is completely unlikely. Genetics from
reproduction is yet another unlikelihood.
These unlikely things are not easy hurdles. Furthermore, they are exponential, building
with every step to insurmountable odds.
Under randomness, therefore, the odds of mortal life coming to be,
whether in an eternal universe or a created universe, are astronomical.
But
with God, the One who has the means and the plan, it
is 100%. God can create Life from
nothing, whether we say He does so in an instant or over billions of
years. God makes the mortal thing from
the eternal. He creates the environment
where Life may exist and thrive. He
provides life-support systems. God sustains that Life where Chaos
cannot. God creates Life with a
reproductive system. He creates the
It is
a huge concept, but a simple one also.
The odds of Chaos creating and sustaining the universe and Life are a
zillion to one against it. The odds of
God creating and sustaining the universe and Life are 100%. Why then would anyone say that Chaos created
the universe and life, and that God is a fantasy, when it is science and math
which proves that Chaos is working
not only under the tremendous strain of insurmountable odds, but also not working at all! Chaos does not work. Chaos does not have a plan. Chaos is Chaos.
The
universe and Life not only came to be
under Order, as it must be, but also are sustained
under Order. Every system of sustenance
is of Order, whether it is genetics, or quantum physics, or hydrodynamics. We depend on Order to be sustained, and we
are sustained by Order, not Chaos.
There
is no third option. There is either a
Creator or Chaos. Chaos cannot create
and sustain. But if Chaos does create
and sustain, is it not the Creator?
Should we not then worship Chaos?
But if we do worship Chaos, are we not thanking Chaos for Order? Then, have we not simply renamed God?
Does
God exist? The science and math does not
allow for absence of a Creator. Even
Time is subject to order, or else our lives and memories are naught. God is to be thanked for permitting
life. Chaos only destroys it. Chaos does exist but is also a creation of
God, and is not permitted to destroy every moment. Chaos is ordered by God.
Overwhelmingly,
the evidence is that God exists.

The Final Countdown
Yes,
friends, it’s the final countdown in more ways than one. Here we have the final verses to Isaiah. How great this has been, and what an honor to
have the time, to go through each and every verse of Isaiah thoroughly, but most
important, with an Hebraic mindset.
Our next project will be to go over each and every of
the 613 commandments!
How
else is it the final countdown?
(1)
The five evils are rampant. This is
happening before our
very eyes. There is a
great risk of Armageddon by any number of death weapons, carried out by
psychopaths and sociopaths, whether homicidal or suicidal. Great weight is placed upon the most
civilized, who either shut down, join in chorus against themselves (for
example, white guilt), or take umbrage.
Astoundingly, people take umbrage to the umbrage, as if freedom,
liberty, personal choice, and personal protection were bad things! Naturally, once personal choice and personal
protection are invoked, the five evils ALSO claim ownership, as in the “right”
of the elite to protect themselves by slaughtering
those they’ve oppressed, or the right of Muslim extremists to protect
themselves from domination by dominating!
But this is not the end!
Amazingly, the people who love freedom ignore these death threats, and
instead attack those who point it out, the messengers. Truth is called radicalism,
lies and omission are called common sense!
(2) It
is the final year of Barack Obama. What new device will we see from this master
manipulator? Some say he will seek to
stay in power. I doubt that, but you
never know when a Stalinist will rise, seeking to rule the world. So many scoff, saying, “C’mon, NOBODY wants
to rule the world.” That’s not how the
song goes. And so, the power-mad, Obama among them, run free, and often so. The only question is,
why don’t the people do something about it?
I suppose the answer is, it is as it has always
been. Few care, fewer still have the
guts or brains to do anything about it, and those who do are mocked or assassinated.
Cheerful,
isn’t it?
But
there is HOPE. There is Torah, which is
THE Law. Those who seek a different Law
only fight against this eldest Law, burrowing for exemptions, because there
cannot be NO Law, or there is no society.
Those who say the Law is individuality without commonality are seekers
of pleasure, whether sex, drugs, foods, or other items forbidden either by
Torah or by civil law. Naturally, civil
law is corrupted, but so are the desires.
Where is Torah in all this? Do
the pleasures and desires help to keep Torah, or to break it, or bring one
further away? It’s easy to see in
popular culture that the ways of Torah are ground to dust for the sake of
pleasure, whether it is the glorification of homosexuality, bacon, or tattoos,
things which “hurt nobody.” Ah, but
Torah is not just about refraining from hurting, but also about separation from
the world. You cannot be Torah if you do
not separate.
The
Christians learned this, but did not make it about Torah, though the book is
inexplicably inextricably bound to the New Testament. They instead separate themselves by word, not
deed. They even say the deed is useless,
even harmful! Their godliness is shaped
by intention, not action. They claim
righteousness by faith, not works, though in fact Jesus DEMANDS works, as does
John, James, and Peter. Judgment Day in
Revelation is in fact based entirely on works.
Ah, but the Christian says he is exempt because of his intention, his
words, his promise to love Jesus and fellow man. But even here, away from Torah, speaking of
peace and tolerance, the Christian fails, because Christianity is not and has
never been about peace and tolerance.
Nor should it be. Hegemony is not
coexistence. Jesus was a lawful
Jew. Christian hegemony ought to be Torah. Period. Checkmate.
I
could go on about Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, atheism, and how these ways also
claim to have found a way, but the adherents do not even walk the path of their
founder. Yes, there are many millions of
Muslims who believe in Mohammed’s hegemony and violence, but where are the
hundreds of millions of Muslims who believe in peace and tolerance stopping the
fundamentalists. They do not and
cannot. At heart, fundamentalism is
following the ACTUAL Law in your ACTUAL book.
Say what you will, that Islam is death, which is true, but if a
fundamentalist follows the Law, can he be blamed? No.
HOWEVER, the
Thus, it shall ALWAYS be a fight for domination, for hegemony. You must only pick a side.

ISAIAH
66:1-17
Swine’s Flesh Blasphemy
Blasphemy
is when the Law is not only left undone but also taught against. Not only is it common sense that anyone who
teaches against the Law of God is also against God, as being against His
dominion and hegemony, it also goes against the Son of God (Matthew 5:19). So how is it that a people who call
themselves holy not only openly transgress the Law, and transgress it even after
being shown in no-uncertain, black-and-white terms that it is unlawful, and
transgress it with gusto and often, but also teach that the Law may be so
ignored because the Son of God said it may be so ignored, and transgressed?
I am
of course alluding to the swine’s flesh, which is in today’s portion from
Isaiah. How do the Christians reconcile
that the same Isaiah they are fond of quoting, especially where it concerns
virgin birth and suffering servant and New Jerusalem, the same Isaiah who is
Jesus’ favorite prophet, is also the same Isaiah who tells that God will have
no mercy upon those who eat the swine’s flesh, and the mouse? The mouse?
Yes,
friends, the mouse is considered food in many portions of
And if
the mouse is verboten, is not the pig?
Yes, for the Law says so, and Isaiah says so, and Jesus does not
disagree with either, and if He ever did disagree we may say He is not elohim,
not a Son of God, for a Son of God does not blaspheme, and does not teach
against the Law, which I say is anyway the same thing.
A
friend asked me, “Is it forbidden to speak ill of the Bible?” My reply is, “The Bible consists of many
things: Law, prophecy, commentary, history, poetry, sayings. The only thing which is forbidden is to speak
ill of the Law.” And why is this? Very
simply, to speak ill of the Law is to teach against it, and to teach against the
Law is not only forbidden by the Law, and Jesus, but also by common sense leads
to the destruction of God’s hegemony. And if destroyed, there is a vacuum of power which shall be filled
by some other force of Law, whether a savage law, or a corrupt law, or a
criminal law, or a law of pleasure, or even a law to have no law. The only reason then to speak ill of the Law
is to replace God.
Even
the smallest commandment, even the dot over a letter, is forbidden to change,
and Jesus said He did not come to change a jot or tittle (markings of Hebrew
letters), so His words match what is permissible, which means Jesus is lawful,
legalistic, Jewish, and Torah, in the way such pleases God. And just the reverse, to teach in favor of
the least commandment is to receive the honor of being called greatest in
Heaven, or from Heaven (but either is most worthy).
So if
the Christian acknowledges that to refrain from swine’s flesh, and the mouse,
is indeed the commandment, the Christian has no recourse but to obey. Unlike the US Constitution, Torah cannot be
amended, and Torah says it cannot be amended.
Thus, anyone who would amend Torah is a lawbreaker, a blasphemer, least
in the kingdom, and so forth. Thus, if a
Christian says Jesus amended Torah, whether before or after His death, such
amendment nullifies Jesus as Son of God.
Thus, the Christian nullifies the worthiness of Jesus by eating swine’s
flesh.
But
supposing Christ DID intend for Christians to eat swine’s flesh, then Jesus nullifies Jesus.
The
only correct attitude, both regarding Torah and Christ, is that eating swine’s
flesh is forbidden, blasphemous, and, for the Christian, nullifies Christ, not
to the level of a man, but to the level of a demon. For who is more least
than a demon? But if not a demon, how
can Jesus be least of anything? He is
not greatest because you say He died for you, but rather He is greatest because
He influenced you to follow Torah, including refraining from swine’s flesh.
Or
will you say that the Jewish Jesus, who proclaimed to His (all Jewish)
disciples to go not to the Gentiles or Samaritans, but only to the children of
Israel, was a traitor to His own God, His proclaimed father, took His life in
hands, and died so that, as an accessory to your salvation by Grace, you could
eat swine’s flesh? If so, would the
Sanhedrin not have every right to put Jesus to death, as a practitioner of
sedition and blasphemy, not against the Sanhedrin, but against God?
But,
you might ask, why did God create the pig if not to eat it? Didn’t Paul say God created all things for
good? Well then, why not eat a
mouse? Why not eat a dead human
carcass? Why not marry your sister? Why not break any small or great commandment
based upon whether or not something seems good to you? Are you not God when you break God’s Law
consciously, publicly, and without guilt?
No, you are not. You are a
blasphemer.
Finally,
is it true that by Christ’s death the Law is dead? If so, why this fetish with
pig meat? Why not include many
other things into your life based on availability, taste, and public
perception. Oh wait, you do that
now. Tattoos, cross-dressing, sexual
preferences – these are fair game for the blasphemers of society. The libertarians say it hurts no one, so mind
your own business. They are the mouthpieces
for blasphemy, enablers of hegemonic change.
If the
Christian who eats pork is correct, and may eat, there is no reason for that
Christian to read Isaiah, who delivers judgment for such. How can the Christian say this applies to the
non-Christian? How is it that Torah must
apply to the non-Christian but non-Torah applies to the Christian? But isn’t it interesting that when a
Christian wants Christian hegemony, the Christian is oft to quote Torah in
regard to those things the Christian is likely to follow, such as Sabbath,
tithing, and adultery. But even here the
Christian does not understand Law. The
Sabbath is Saturday, the “Lord’s Day” is Sunday, but
this latter only by tradition. The tithe
of church has no relationship to the three Torah tithes, yet the Christian is
self-satisfied, even smug, to believe that the collection plate takes away his
tithe. And adultery? This applies only to women, and men have a
different Torah cross to bear.

things and more are part of our regular learning sessions. Please come join us.

65:13-25
A New Year Means What?
If we
are diligent, we should not change until either our goal is met or we must give
up our goal, being defeated. When it
comes to goals, this is the choice. If
the goal is to lose weight, diligence wins the game. As
Simple
is difficult. I wrote a song about it
once – want to hear it? It begins,
“Simple but hard, how do I start…” Yes,
indeed, how DO I start? How do WE
start? WHERE do we start? On WHAT do we start? And WHY?
Let’s
say your goal is to (quite commonly) lose weight. A mere declaration to do so obviously is not
enough. The inspiration is only 1% of
it. Now comes
the perspiration: (1) Deciding on a diet, (2) deciding on a timeline, (3)
deciding on a stopping point, (4) deciding on a final body image. This is enough to make any brash promise come
to a halt, and often enough it does. For
it is SIMPLE to NOTICE a problem, but HARD to actually make a plan, and harder
still to carry it through.
When
it comes to politics, it is the same. We
know well enough what the problems are. Corruption and fraud.
Waste. Power-mongering for power’s sake. Unconstitutional behavior
and action. Too-high
taxes. Too-burdensome
regulations. Snoops
and spies and stool-pigeons. Military-industrial complex.
Collusion between government and certain businesses. But having identified these problems, do we
smugly say we are smart, then leave it to dolts and
criminals and demons to administer? Why…
yes, we do.
And
why do we leave our entire lives in the hands of dolts and criminals and
demons? One response might be that it’s
too hard, and this is also the main reason why many diets, exercise programs,
twelve-step programs, spiritual rejuvenations, and so forth, are quit. It’s too hard.
This
is also the reason given by Peter in Acts 15 for ignoring the Law of God. You knew eventually I’d get there, didn’t
you? Yes, after Paul came to
Pretty
strange statement, wouldn’t you say?
Peter didn’t say, “Jesus (or the blood of Jesus) lets us off the hook.” He didn’t say, “Paul is right, Jesus reneged
the Law.” No, Peter said, “It’s too
hard.”
If
your mind isn’t blown by this
For if the non-Jewish Christians ignore the Law, they
are not Christians, and not Jews, but pagans. And for James,
such distinguishing between pagan and Christian (or Jew, which ought to be
viewed as the same thing, even according to doctrine) meant not only refraining
from any other god, and not only refraining from sexual acts which Torah
forbids, but also refraining from foods killed in a certain manner, and from
certain parts of food. And naturally, we
may believe that James meant this as a STARTING POINT, and not the GOAL, NOT
the end-point, for in Acts 15:21 James states that the rest of the Law may be
learned by the non-Jewish Christians every Sabbath at the synagogue or temple
(and the Jewish Christians were to continue fully in the Law, as Acts 21
admits)!
So it
is that a “new year” is symbolic for a “new you,” and the “new you” which is
superior is that which serves GOOD and NOT EVIL. For Jews, this means more Torah. For Christians today, it generally means some
sentimental family-oriented objective, or perhaps a faith-driven personal conviction. But in reality, and as the FACTS of New
Testament show (we haven’t even spoken today of Matthew
You
may not believe in a literal interpretation of Noah and The Flood, but there is
no mistaking the words of Christ. If
your family is more important than Christ, you’re on the wrong path. But Christ is not a person, He is a WAY, that
is a manner by which you live, and you cannot live in a WAY of Christ the
person, for then you must go to
I
began this article by speaking about a new year, and new year’s resolutions,
especially that of dieting, and at this point you are now obviously quite aware
that a new year is not new if YOU are not new, and your resolutions will not be
successful if you do not actually DO something about it, and your dieting is
useless if you keep eating the same things.
So how is it that a diet is ruined by eating the wrong foods, but your
Christianity, determined through the Bible, of which you say you believe every
word, is NOT ruined if you eat the wrong foods?
A
failed diet usually ends with these words: “I tried but it was too hard.” Or, “I tried but I like what I like.” Or, “I tried but I have glandular issues so I
get a pass.”
Likewise,
failed Christianity uses the same language: “The Law is too hard” or “God does
not want me to miss out on joy” or “I have Jesus so I get a pass.”
But
Matthew
Did
Jesus REALLY teach that the Law is wrong because it’s too hard? Perhaps you think that’s too much, and that
Jesus only taught PART of the Law is too hard, and only PART of the Law may be
ignored? But the Law SAYS that the Law
is not amendable, so if Jesus taught that part of the Law may be ignored, then
Jesus ALSO taught the Law IS amendable, which means EVERYTHING
is up for grabs! Is that even
possible? Is that even logical?
Wouldn’t
that mean the Law is subject, in whichever degree you like, to our personal
impulses, whims, and desires? Doesn’t
that condemn the Law and make our impulses to be good?
Thankfully,
we know, even in our hearts, that our impulses are NOT good. We even know, in our hearts. that we eat wrong things, say wrong things, and indeed, in
the most humble fashion, that all our righteousness is like a filthy rag,
because, in a way, we can’t help it.
However, where these words occur in Isaiah 65, they are not the words of
the humble, of those who will change their behavior from personal whim to Torah
Law. No indeedy,
they are the words of the arrogant, the smug, who blame God for making them
this way, and who basically will NOT change, and still ask God, “How long are
you going to stay angry about something YOU did, God?” Is that “wow” or what?
And in
case you think Isaiah 65 has nothing to do with eating, let me educate, and
show you that God brought judgment on these fallen Jews (or Hebrews, or
Israelites) NOT ONLY for idolatry (Isaiah 65:3) BUT ALSO because they “eat
swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels” (65:4).
So it
is that the failed Christian says the SAME THING to Jesus, “Please help
me. I’m a sinner, but I was made this
way (original sin) and CAN’T be righteous without you, so please make me
righteous by my plea… even though I’m not actually going to change to Torah
living, only make a commitment to be kinder, gentler, and a thousand points of
light. Amen.”
That
is, the born-again Christian may give up her adultery, or confess his murder,
but has no intention to give up the pork, the shrimp, or the tattoos, or seek
to please in clothing, facial hair, or other “least commandments,” though
Christ says (Matthew 5:19) that to follow such commandments AND to teach others
to follow such commandments makes you the greatest.
The
question is, How can the born-again Christian give up
the more difficult things, such as wrongful sex, and violence, yet not be able
to do the easier things, the least commandments?
The
answers are, (1) for family peace, (2) for gratification, and (3) for
self-congratulation, the ego. For if the
Christian gives up pork, his family, taught by errant doctrine, shall think him
strange and legalistic, though Christ Himself was most legalistic. But if the Christian does NOT give up pork,
he shall not only have family peace, being receptive to the unclean food, and
the gratification of wifely and familial company, without interruption, in fact
heightened, but he shall also think himself blessed by God to do something
plainly unlawful, contradictorily rewarded with unclean food for his new
righteousness. Is that even possible? Is that even logical?
Thus,
modern Christianity is failed Christianity.
It fails Torah, fails Christ, fails the Council at

Blaming God For What We Do
Passive-aggressive means blaming someone else
for what YOU do. Barack
Obama is passive-aggressive. So is John Boehner. So is MSNBC.
So is Bill O’Reilly. I like to
watch Donald Trump defending himself, attacking others, and making his
points. He doesn’t BLAME others for what
HE does, he blames them for what THEY do, and like all good passive-aggressive
flunkies, they defend themselves without
justification, because there is none.
At work, we know there is a training
manual. People normally believe rules
are meant to be broken, and so they are.
But when caught, do they confess their crimes? No.
They blame the manual, the person who makes the rules, the person who
enforces the rules, or, worse, someone innocent of the crime who
makes a good blame-towel. Just because a
rule “makes no sense” doesn’t mean it’s not a rule in the book.
Likewise, at the park, rules are posted
restricting where dogs can poop and skateboards can weave. But people do what they want anyway. Why?
Because because want to do what they want to
do, and rules are in the way. “Think of
the CHILDREN!” is a common cry against rules.
I AM thinking of the children, who will grow up believing rules are
meant to be broken, creating criminals, scofflaws, jaywalkers, unemployable
louts.
Nothing new here. The rules have
been broken from the beginning. The
Israelites in the wilderness broke Torah as often as possible, even though God
provided DIRECTLY, and was RIGHT THERE to see their sins. Christianity is BASED on getting away with
stuff, whether in the moment, eating pork, getting tattoos, and other acts
forbidden by the rules, or in total, asking Jesus to take care of it for them,
to talk to the boss, to intercede, to help them skate, fire insurance from
hell, a blame-towel, using his blood as their antibacterial ointment.
The New Agers
choose the rules they like and leave the rest behind. The Muslims are strict, yet they permit
suicide and child rape, all forbidden by Koran, and don’t tell me they don’t
permit it, because it’s taught in the mosque.
All of humanity is striving to get over on
God, either ignoring His existence, or His Law.
But God is watching. And God is
taking note. And God IS a just God who
enforces sane rules. Saying he is NOT
watching, or taking note, or is unjust or insane, does not stop God. He OWNS the Universe, and in the end He owns
YOU.
In today’s lesson, we see how the Israelites
(Jews) AGAIN cry out to God for mercy, but in doing so blame GOD for what THEY
did. And if the Bible tells us this
angers God, and it does, WHY would you think YOU are exempt from the same
reaction and punishment? Because you are Jewish by birth? Because you say you love Jesus but ignore
Torah? Because you think the Jews lost
their chosen status and it is now yours?
Because you scoff? Because you ignore and
disbelieve? Come listen.

ISAIAH
64:8-11
What’s The Use?
Often enough we settle into our opinions of
God and the universe, of Law and obedience and punishment and reward, and of
religion and politics and geopolitics, and especially our value as individuals and even as human beings.
For the most part, there’s no much to
say. God exists, mathematically, due to
the exponential imporbabilities which must be hurdled
to reach any semblance of order, even at the first several levels of existence,
or even pre-existence,
if you will. We have ORDER, not chaos,
in the variety of mechanisms, and laws of nature, which traverse between the
many sciences, making the scholar nod in appreciation at the astounding
inventions of God, such as genetics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and so
forth.
If there is a God, AND THERE IS, there is a
hegemonic Law, one which dominates, for God does not create, nor keep order,
without laws of nature, and he therefore, logically, and by extension, does not
create living beings without laws for their behavior. The animals are ruled by their instincts, and
all cats are cat-like, having their own unwritten laws of behavior which God,
through genetics, has beforehand calculated and installed. Likewise, man is ruled by instinct, yet man
is also given a gift of consciousness well beyond any living creature we know,
for man can no only know his present, and remember his past, but can also plan
his future, beyond mere seeking of food or reproduction.
Man is capable to do things no animal can do,
especially deviate from the norm without much consequence, except where man’s
law forbids such behavior by instating harsh punishment. These deviations are interesting and good
when they are constructive, even if destructive to previous norms, but not when
they are revolution against the people.
Therefore, such revolutions as the French Revolution and Russian
Revolution are now looked upon as bad, wrong, evil, while the American
Revolution, for example, is seen as good.
What benefits the people? Certainly not small factions
whose sole aim is to disarm the majority, take their wealth, and subject them
to violence, revenge for past wrongs, and simple mayhem. What benefits the people is a stable society
constructed from like-minded and, for the most part, like people. We need not venture into racial society, for
it is self-evident that most people of a certain race prefer to be amongst
their own race, and there is none which comes to mind that, even for their
multicultural mindset, would not prefer to instead hold hegemony by race.
Likewise, religion. But while
racial dominance, and cultural hegemony thereof, is constructed from rules of
men, religious dominance is constructed from rules of God. Naturally, it cannot be that every religion
on Earth is right. That, however, does
NOT mean that every religion on Earth is wrong or incorrect. While the burden laid
upon religion by atheists, and upon a certain religion by a competing religion,
may appear to be a fair argument, the solution boils down to answering two
questions:
(1) Whose law will we be following?
(2) Who is in charge of that law?
For those who believe the universe is
chaotic, and those people are few indeed, the questions are academically moot, though in reality even such atypical people desire
social stability, for their dreams, for their peace of mind, for their wealth,
for their families.
For those who believe in an ordered universe,
the question “whose law will be following?” must be closely followed by “who
created the universe?”
In philosophical terms, the question can
never be answered. But since the laws
which men must follow cannot be neutralized by mere philosophical entropy, it
MUST be answered.
The Muslims say the Law of men must be Shariah. But Islam
bases their entire Law upon Torah Law, which they deny not. Torah says it cannot be altered or amended,
so Shariah, if it deviates from Torah, is
self-defeating as the correct Law. I
know – tell it to the Muslims. Well, I
just did.
The Christians say the Law of men must be a
“law of love.” But when pressed, the
“law of love” is not a law at all, but rather a dilution, distillation, or
deviation from Torah, for Christianity bases its moves upon Torah, albeit with
many exclusions, and they deny it not.
Torah says it cannot be altered or amended, so the “law of love” that
deviates from Torah is self-defeating and not the correct Law. I know – tell it to the Christians. Well, I just did, and I have for many years
now.
The Buddhists say the Law of men must be from
within. However, WESTERN Buddhism is not
Buddhism at all, but merely a hedonistic deviation, which truly negates it as
the correct Law of man. EASTERN
Buddhism, and Taoism, is a philosophical worship, much like Christianity, and
is based on a geopolitical view of religion, much like Confuciamism. But all these Eastern religions are, like
Christianity, dilutions from a more ancient Law, almost assuredly Torah. Not Christianity, for that is not a Law, but
a philosophy and a hope. Not Islam, for
that is unlike the Eastern religions.
But even if these were the root, they themselves spring from Torah.
Hinduism has a Vedic Law but it appears to be
rooted in the same concepts as Torah, and it is impossible to say that the
But what’s the use? The Jews do not promote Torah as they ought,
and therefore the other religions, whether newer or just as old, competing for
audience and money and power, can make their every claim seem all the more
reverent and relevant.
When Jesus was tried, the Sanhedrin brought
forth false witnesses. Totally against Torah.
So it becomes easy for Christians to denigrate Torah, as they, ignorant
of Torah, believe Torah crucified Christ, when exactly the opposite happened.
When Mohammed came to the Jews, and asked
them to join him in a monotheistic religion, the Jews in Medina told Mohammed
to instead join them, but Mohammed thought himself greater, and thereafter was
insulted, and so to this day it taken by the Muslims as a sin to slur or even
make a picture of Mohammed, as if he is a deity. But if the Jews of Medina had been
unassailable in their Torah, Mohammed might’ve joined them.
Thus, in today’s lesson, we learn that even
in time of Isaiah the Jews were not following Torah, and FURTHERMORE blamed God
for creating them as with free will,
that is, able to sin! Is it any
wonder the heathen mocks God when those who say they follow Torah mock
God? Is this too hard to hear? That it is YOUR fault, Jew, Christian,
Muslim, that you do not follow Torah, that the world is falling to pagans,
Satanists, hedonists, atheists, and other mockers of the Law? But how can YOU
complain when YOU mock the Law?
You eat what is forbidden, you wear garments
which are disallowed, you kill when you ought not and let live when you ought
to kill, you permit abortions and adulteries to stand without recompense, and
you believe you are righteous WHY?
Because you are “saved” by
the blood of another? For what purpose? To sin again?
Because you are “chosen”
and that’s that? Cannot God make the rocks to worship him?
Because you have oil and a
passion to destroy infidels? And you commit suicide WHY?
But if you think I am on the side of the
mockers and atheists, you are
wrong. That is also not
Torah.
Come listen and we will make you think and

Communism? At the top, there is a battle for world
supremacy. Each is a
fascism unto its own. Each has
its own one-world order, currency, religion, family structure. In other words, each is a communism if not a
Marxism. But Torah – TORAH – the
greatest Law, is also the greatest fascism and
communism in the best sense. For under
Torah the people are protected from crooked judges, from bribed leaders, from
murderers, from hedonists and Canaanites, from thieves. And the only thing stopping the world from
being under Torah is the demonic rage against Torah which is personalized by a
hatred of the Jews. And why does this
work? Because too many Jews by birth are
involved in all of the evils, and not enough are involved in spreading Torah to
the nations.
But if
Shemitah means the coming of Messiah – if it does –
we may look forward to a fascism not under men but
under God. And if so, it shall be under
Torah. And the meek, the weak, the
oppressed, and the obliterated shall be restored, to be free from criminals,
savages, non-Torah hedonists, the corrupt, and the murdering communists. Under Torah shall there be death? Naturally. But the Law of God is the protector of women,
of children, of decency, of property, of the family. And there is no coexist. So there is no choice in the end.

ISAIAH
62:6-9. Even if…
… my life isn’t all I want it to be, I pray for the world to
keep turning after Shemitah.
This
is the prayer we ought to be praying.
Whether or not your life, or my life, is perfect, or good, or adequate,
or rotten, our prayer ought to be that life continues. Now, having said that, we
ought also to pray that Torah comes into the world, as a matter of the brain
and the heart and the soul. But,
knowing who we are dealing with – humans – it is also right to pray that Torah
comes into the world as a matter of Messiah.
For when Messiah comes He will be Torah. Messiah is not going to take us AWAY from
Torah, from what is right, into filth, depravity, savagery, hedonism,
corruption, collectivism, crime – no, Messiah is going to take us FROM those
things. Whereas hedonists claim
homosexuality does no harm, we know sex in general can be harmful, and
therefore all of the heterosexual ills
Rather,
prayer, the subject, should be applied in our lives REGARDLESS of our
circumstances. We should pray whether we do so in happiness, joy, and
thankfulness, or whether we do it depression, hopelessness, and anger. And the prayer for the world to keep turning
after Shemitah is, particularly, the most selfless
prayer we can make. Why?
When
we pray in thankfulness we ought not forget the atrocities being committed
around us, and when we remember we should not wish this world to disappear (for
example, in a “rapture”). And when we
pray in despair, we likewise ought not permit the
knowledge that others are happy to cause the coveting that turns our prayers to
spite, and to wish the world to disappear for spite’s sake. Thus, in EVERY regard we should, in fact
MUST, pray for the world to keep on, even if there is atrocity around us, or
despair in us. For in doing so we make
the greatest forgiveness of all. We
forgive God.
Yes,
forgiveness of God is so important. All
things eventually land in His lap, whether good things for thankfulness or bad
things for complaint. Thus, forgiving
God is the first step to total forgiveness of all other things, even if
forgiveness of all other things turns out to be impossible. For we must not be like
Job’s wife who said, “Curse God and die.” Rather, “Bless God and live.”

This
summer of 2015 has been a revelation of evil, from overt ISIS attacks on
Christians in Syria and elsewhere, to overt permission of the USA allowing ISIS
to proliferate and murder, to overt treaties and deals with Iran, Vietnam
(TPP), and Cuba, solidifying our belief at University of Truth that we have
been experiencing a Communist-Muslim cooperative takeover right under our
noses. This is exactly according to our
book, The Mark, and the blogspot, The Mark and the
Chaos (search now, please).
Meanwhile,
savagery reigns in the streets, mixed with the ill scent of hedonism, egged on
by Marxist elements, fueled by the knowledge that the government is not going
to stop the violence. We are not at
critical mass yet. Race wars are brewing
throughout the world, even as many are aware they are participating, like
puppets who don’t mind being puppets.
It has
become a crime to cite Torah.
Homosexuality is expected, not just tolerated. Fraud runs through everything at the highest
levels, from the Secretary of State to the Justice Dept, from Congress to the
President, from the media to the people.
Pork and tattoos, if you will, also. Agreeing with evil so to
have a normalcy bias. Eat and drink while Rome burns.
Economically,
we are on the precipice worldwide. It
was OK to print money in 1983 to fuel repressed stock and housing markets. It was even OK to print money in 1999 to keep
the fledgling dot-com revolution from dying an early death. But wages haven’t kept up with house
prices. Debt is the order of the day,
and the terms of this debt are onerous. Thus, Shemitah.
The
purpose of Shemitah is to have a giant forgiveness of
debt at the 50-year mark. The last time
we experienced such an upheaval was 1965, the end of the previous culture. Before that 1915, World War
II, the income tax, the Federal Reserve.
Before that 1865, the end of the Civil War. There are 7 year cycles as well, and you can
research those.
What
is to come this September 2015? Will the
world come to its senses? Will the world
thumb its nose even more so at God’s face?
Will there be war, depression, or prosperity, according to that
cycle? Will there be a king of evil
among us, or a king of mercy? If we are
smart – not even moral, just smart – we will pray with all our energy to the
Lord God for forgiveness, divert this train of dynamite which is set to
blow any second, and run for our lives towards Torah.

that time, we will continue to fail in this fight using only pleas for logic, compassion,
peace, or mercy. Evil has no mind to
stop, limit, reverse, or coexist.
Neither should we with Torah. It
is us or them. As Torah says, either you
are for Torah or you are not. As Jesus
says, you are either with Him (the Law) or not.
Lawlessness leads ALWAYS to more lawlessness, and we see now it
ballooning so that neither politician, pastor, nor Pope have
any deterrent to their own willful and selfish desires. The people have done likewise, perhaps with
less guilt, but with no less responsibility.
Law is always the answer, and the only correct and complete Law is
Torah, which has been the basis for Judaism, Christianity, Islam,
the Constitution of the United States, and even Buddhism and the Native
American Law. Most of the world desires Torah
in its various forms, but evil is powerful and seductive. We either accept Torah or we accept our doom

It is
becoming increasingly difficult for anyone to practice Torah. The Jews are once again targets for all. Israel is again attacked by the nations, and
the United Nations. Christianity, in its
struggle for survival against Islam, is ferociously, yet ironically, making
choices towards its official non-Law of God ideology, while at the same time
revealing how pick-and-choose it is by pointing the finger at the hedonist and
atheist but not willing to create valid credentials by at least TRYING to
perform Torah. With Christians, it comes
down to pork, tattoos, and friendships, rather than God. Islam’s Tawrot is
being plowed under by the radicals who fester Leftist politics with the worst
examples of twisted theology – where are the “good Muslims” to stand up? Where are the “lawful Christians”? Where are the “real Jews”?
China’s
powerful role in world economic is driving communism worldwide, as can be seen
in the most recent US Trade Agreement, which leaks have shown a willingness to
lay down US law for the sake of.. what? But also communism is against religion, which
eventually means the State’s Law becomes supreme over Torah, the Law in fact
for Jews, Christians, and Muslims. This
sets up a worldwide conflict over Torah.
The Buddhists may be an ally one day to Torah but presently Buddhism has
been hijacked in the West by hedonists who cannot even admit Buddha to be a
god, or at least divine, though he did not want to be venerated this way, in
Asia. This sets up yet another conflict
between East and West, between Torah and non-Torah.
Political
problems in Mexico and Russia, traditional bastions of Christianity, have made
it difficult for Torah to proliferate there.
Mexico’s love for lawlessness is a bad foundation, obviously, and
Russia’s Putin has found his old KGB law to trump the
freedom of expression Russians hoped for, but also, more importantly, to
counteract the growth of a strong Russian church to tamp down the hedonism, if
indeed it can be tamped down there.

The criminals pour over borders and are protected by those who use their

and the day of man is soon over.
I
should write blurbs for fantasy films, but this is no fantasy. Torah is losing the race. In fact, we are going backwards. We reward the depraved and punish the

bluster for “fairness” but “sameness” and all who are “deniers” must be
silenced by any means. Glamour has
displaced honor, and cash has paved over humility.
The

sound like Middle-Earth? We are going

believed left behind. The agrarian
environmentalist and the Islamist want the same thing – an end to 2000 years of
progress. Mortal enemies
band together to meet the common stone – Torah.
The Law of God must be destroyed so that Arab nationalism, or carbon
taxation, or anarchy, or animalism – anything but Torah – is put in charge of
men. Why?
Torah
is the right Law. Torah is the right
fence. All men know it but none do
it. The Christian says he is free from
it through, oddly, the workings of the Son of God, who in Matthew 5:19 dashes
that hope, but yet the Christian goes on believing his sin is overlooked, and
teaches others so. The Muslim takes Torah
and calls it Tawrot, and claims the Jews stole from
them what the Hebrews received in the desert 1000 years before Mohammed, and
the Muslim then defeats the purpose of Torah by vigilantism and purity
murders. The Buddhist says he is against
the Western way but Buddha, and the Tao, have only one
way, and it is the same as Torah. There
is no right karma without Torah, and there is no right incarnation without it
either.
But
they fight. And those who KNOW, who
really KNOW, what the warfare is all about, agitate it further, so they may
continue to steal, enslave, corrupt, and make twice the child of hell.

And so God does not forgive without repentance and change and obedience.

The
true problem with mankind is that most people can’t admit when they’re wrong.
This
affects politics greatly. Promises made
which can’t be kept. Votes
cast which must be justified.
Votes not cast which leads to militant apathy (“Don’t blame me, I didn’t
vote!”). Environmental agendas waylaid
by facts but still defended on sheer chutzpah, mainly to save face, but also to
gain power and wealth.
The
same applies to spirituality. Though the
Law of God is clear, people create their own versions of the Law to suit their
fear of being wrong. Christianity is the
greatest offender, making Jesus Christ an enemy of the Law instead of its greated defender.
Jesus died for Torah, not for your mistakes. He died for what’s RIGHT, not what’s
WRONG. Islam also has twisted Torah,
calling it still Tawrot, and utilizing many
principles therein, including kosher (halal),
circumcision, tallith (fringes), and so forth, yet
with no thought given that Moses received the Law some 2000 years before
Mohammed walked the Earth. Are the Jews
blameless? No, for if they were, Jews
would not lean towards gentile assimilation or collectivism not of Torah. But none can admit they are wrong.

Isaiah
58:7-12
Matthew
5:19: “Whoever does and teaches the least commandment shall be called greatest
in heaven.”
What
is the “least commandment”? Whichever
one you THINK is least. Say that
refraining from pork is the least, or say that not wearing wool and linen
together in one garment is least – whichever you THINK is the least, is the
least to you.
Now,
if you DO the least commandment, are you not putting aside your own opinions
for the sake of obedience? And if you
put aside your own opinions for the sake of obedience, are you not humbling
yourself to something greater than yourself?
If your desires of eating, wearing, shaving, working, praising,
sacrificing, and so forth, take precedence and priority over any commandment of
God, are you not creating a hierarchy of importance? If you choose your own desire to each pork, are you not choosing your own desire over
God’s commandment?
We
cannot say that Jesus took away any such conflict, because He has already said that
whoever teaches another to NOT do any least commandment, by example and
education, is the LEAST in heaven (Matt. 5:19 also). So then, whoever teaches that Jesus took away
the necessity to do any least commandment, whether by example or education, is not
only the least in heaven, but is also saying that JESUS is the least in heaven. Is Jesus the
least in heaven? I think not.
Having
therefore established that Jesus cannot be both the greatest in heaven AND
someone who teaches another to break the least commandment, we must choose who
Jesus is. This we know by His actual
words. He SAID He did not come to
destroy the law, not the least bit of the Law (not a jot or tittle), and He
furthermore taught Law to His disciples, at the
But
the apostles did NOT flee, and the Pharisees had to bring false witnesses to
say that Jesus was a lawbreaker, and even then the false witnesses FAILED.
But
even without that evidence, the doctrine of Christianity, which says that Jesus
had to be perfect in the Law in order for Him to be what Christianity says He
is, puts forward a LAWFUL Jesus, in both example and education,
else He would not have been “perfect in the Law.”
Christ
did not say, “I am perfect in the Law so you don’t have to be.” Christ said, “If you want eternal life, do
the commandments.” Christ said, “Whoever
does the least commandment and teaches others to do so shall be called greatest
in heaven, but whosoever does not do the least commandment and teaches others
so shall be called the least in heaven.”
So it applies to everyone.
“Doing”
is a work. Works, therefore, have great
impact on how heaven looks upon each person.
But we are all imperfect, and we both sin against the Law and fail to do
it daily. Are we doomed? Of course not! We can pray and repent every day. In sincerity, we may renew our commitment to
the Lord God and His Law by sincerely understanding and believing that we have
transgressed something important, and seek to remedy it. It’s not over until it’s over, and therefore
we have a daily chance to be cleansed, healed, and forgiven. And the Law provides the yearly Yom Kippur as
well, when the High Priest washes clean the entire nation for its own, and for
God’s name’s, sake.
“Teaching”
refers to leadership. Failure to teach
is one problem, but to teach AGAINST is the worst of all. Whoever does the commandments to the best of
his or her ability, and teaches others to do so, is the greatest in
heaven. Whoever does the commandments to
the best of his or her ability, but fails to teach, has a few issues with
God. Whoever does NOT do the
commandments to the best of his or her ability, but teaches in favor of Torah,
has some favor with God, though that person has a double standard or hypocrisy. But whoever does NOT do the commandments to
the best of his or her ability, AND teaches others to also not do, is the least
in heaven. That latter person is not
only a sinner but also a blasphemer.
When
Jesus said, “For I say unto you that unless your righteousness shall exceed
the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case
enter into the Kingdom of heaven” the word
“righteousness” does not mean an arrogant self-righteousness. Why would Jesus or God want you to exceed
THAT? The word “righteousness” also does
NOT mean your integrity, or your word, in what you do, for it is that we can
have integrity, and keep our word, to do evil works, such as murder, rape,
stealing, and crimes against God or society.
The word “righteousness” means LAWFULNESS.
The
Pharisees were strict AND lawful, but they also exceeded Torah by placing heavy
burdens upon the people. And though
Torah, as all law, authorizes the keepers of the law to make civil ordinances
from Torah Law, the welfare of the people is paramount in order to keep the
land sanctified. Thus, these particular
Pharisees and scribes had lowered their lawfulness by permitting such things as
special favors, superior seating at the table and in the Temple, money-changing
at the Temple, and other actions that were not necessarily against Torah but
which anyway caused many to get close to, and finally go beyond, what is
lawful.
The
Pharisees then attempted to police the people of the licentiousness which they
themselves had permitted. For example,
when the adulteress was brought to Jesus, that in itself was not against Torah,
but to expect Jesus to rule in judgment when He was not an authorized member of
the Sanhedrin was akin to vigilantism, which is frowned upon, if not forbidden,
by Torah.
Christian
doctrine teaches that Jesus sought soft-hearted forgiveness for the sinner, but
in fact Jesus causes these vigilantes to leave not in shame, but FEAR, in
knowing that the next mob might take one of THEM, and the next unlawful judge
who was not Jesus might actually hold kangaroo court in the streets! Jesus told the adulteress, “Go and sin no
more” which translates as “Go and be lawful.”
In fact, “go” COULD mean “get out of town before the vigilantes come
back.”
Let’s
be clear. Jesus was Jewish. When he said to follow and teach least
commandments, He was certainly speaking of Torah commandments. When He spoke to the Pharisees, it was not as
an outsider to the religion, as a pagan with a bone to pick, but as a concerned
member of the community with some fire in His belly, who spoke truth to power,
and then His death. Jesus basically died
while PROTECTING Torah, and He died FOR Torah.
He did not die so that non-Jews, or Jews, who had no interest in
performing the Law might walk about arrogantly, saying, “I’m not under the
(oppressive) Law.”
These people
Jesus would teach, “No, DO the Law.” If
that did not take root, He would “shake the dust from his sandals” and move on
to the next necessary destination.
It is
impossible that the Jewish Jesus had Jewish disciples who agreed with breaking
the Law, or that any such sect would not be immediately, and RIGHTFULLY,
extinguished. It is impossible that such
a heretic could be called “perfect in the Law.”
No, Jesus WAS perfect in the Law, as much as we can comprehend that, and
the reason He was perfect in the Law was NOT to “get it done already” so that
you might evolve your own law from bits of Torah, Buddhism, Native American
animism, your common sense, your compassion, and your experience. That is NOT what Jesus taught, even if some
of those elements themselves are Torah-related, if not Torah-originated.

We
know there is a plan to cause chaos, and ultimately it comes from Satan. The need to see man’s handiwork destroyed,
and God’s praise withheld is the highest aim of the devil. And there is no shortage of people who are
enthusiastic to see this goal achieved.
The savages, the corrupted, the hedonists, the collectivists, and the
criminals all have a vested interest in chaos.
For
the savage, it means the right to pillage, even kill. For the corrupt, it is the right to rule over
law, and to have the power over life and death.
For the hedonist, it is the rule over the body, in eating, sexual
pleasure, and skin manipulation which is against God’s Law. For the collectivist, it is to force that
which is repellant to men to be embraced by men, as slaves. And for the criminal, it is to work the
system for simple lucre.
But
what is the outcome for chaos? There
must, after all, be order, unity, hegemony. Who will be in charge? Therefore, when we come to the end of this
road, and ask this important question, it must be apparent that if evil
triumphs, evil cannot become good.

God’s
Grace brings personal peace.. but
that doesn’t help a society to be peaceful.. unless
Grace leads one to a common purpose under God.. and
that is the Law of God.
There
is no common purpose under God for those without the Law. All those without Law and under God are for
their own agendas, whether those agendas cross-connect with Law or not. “Love” as an agenda has no
common purpose unless there is Law to explain that agenda. Otherwise, a Law will be made for those
without Law who still seek Law.
Philosophers, pulpits, and compassion become the Law to those who seek
Law, but not the true Law.
When
there is Law, there are only a few choices: (1) statism, that is, collectivism,
(2) corruption under a republic or democracy, (3) savagery of the jungle,
bleeding into anarchy, or on the edge of libertine freedom, which leads to (4)
hedonism, libertarianism without the Law.
Crime ensues, disintegration of morality is a given.
Statism
is against the Law of God because it is against God. Corruption cites the Law but hypocritically
flouts it. Savagery makes God as blood
without mercy. Hedonism is by definition
against the Law of God because it is for the whims of men.
But if

existentialism with as few boundaries as possible. Some call this libertarianism, and some even
practice a true libertarianism which respects the rights of men AND Law, but
mainly this is hedonism.
Come
listen today and hear more on these words.
Isaiah
55:1-8
What
is the antidote for lawlessness? Exertion of Law. What
is the antidote for savagery? Lawful exertion of peace through lawful police strength? What is the antidote for corruption in the
police and in government? Expectation of lawful means by those who rule and who are trained
in force.
But
when Law is neither expected nor exerted, everyone runs wild. Savages take to the street, burning,
molesting, trespassing, harassing. Police take liberties not granted by law,
expecting to be sheltered for their sacrifice of time in protecting society
from savages. Government exploits all situation for monetary and power benefits.
Plato
knew that only a benevolent dictator, a type of good fascist, might be counted
upon to make things right. Yet, that
fascist must also rule by underlying law.
Ideally, by preexisting law, not by executive
privilege. The BEST of such is
Torah, which is ancient, of the chosen people, able to be properly translated,
not savage but only firm, not in the corner of the rich or the poor, open to
outsiders who abide.
Come
with us today and learn more about what it means to have LAW in society, and
STILL have love.

Why
does Christianity deny that Jesus loved Torah and taught Torah? Jesus said, “Whoever shall do the least
commandment, and shall teach others to do so, shall be called greatest in
heaven. But whoever shall break the
least commandment, and teach others so, shall be called least in heaven” (Matt
But
even here, the Christians wrestle. They
say, “The only Law is the Law of Love!” Really? Which then is
the “least” commandment of which Jesus speaks?
We know the “greatest” commandments have to do with love – Love the Lord
your God with your heart, might, and soul – Love your neighbor as yourself
(both of which, by the way, are directly from Torah). But which are the “least” commandments? Why, whichever you THINK is least! What does this mean? It means that if you sneer at a particular
commandment, snub your nose at it, refute it – it is least to you. But if you, thinking such commandment least,
still perform it, AND teach others to perform it, you are the greatest, as far
as God is concerned. Why?
Because
you put yourself aside for God! You were
humble! You taught the Law!
As the
Psalm (32) teaches, to get close to God, we must humble ourselves by admitting
our transgressions against the Law of God.
Otherwise, God only hears our arrogant gums flapping.
In
today’s lesson, we explore more about these things.

HOW
STUPID ARE WE?
Much
has been made of Jonathan Gruber’s comments regarding how Obamacare
was sold, peddled, soft-soaped, and thrust on the people in a deceitful
manner. In every regard, Gruber (who
does not deserve the title “Mr.”) should be whipped in the public square. First, for being a
conniver, fraud, and liar. But
this is common, and his punishment here ought to be moderate. Second, for helping to
destroy the known system of healthcare access, delivery, and/or repayment which
most people either liked or with which they had comfort. But in this he was not alone, and there is
policy to confront. Third, for his
brazenness in telling everyone who would listen, before, during, and after Obamacare passed, that such laws can only pass with the
help of a sleeping public, sheeple, stupid people,
ignorant and dumb. Here, he crosses a
line of moral inappropriateness and social calamity. For it is a short leap from being able to
confess fraud without punishment to confessing murder without punishment. Yes, a very short step
indeed.
But
worse than Gruber is Nancy Pelosi, who spoke highly of him in years past, then
feigned ignorance of him this past week.
This woman is more responsible for the high crimes committed by Congress
than is Gruber, and she ought to be punished accordingly. It’s more than just acting as if Gruber were
a stranger to her. It’s telling the
American people continuously, “You can keep your doctor” and “you can keep your
policy” and “you have to pass it to see what’s in it (because obviously you
will like what’s in it).” For each lie,
deliberate or otherwise, there should be public lashes. For each deliberate lie, there should be
prison also.
Pelosi
is not alone. She is flanked by Stenny Hoyer, Chuck Schumer, Charlie Rangel, Chris Van Hollen, Harry Reid, and of course Baraq
Obama. These
and a host of others should be hanged by their thumbs until red. Their gall knows no bounds, their lies are
without borders, and the damage they do to the psyche and morale of a country
already in turmoil, nearly in civil war, is unforgivable. Oh, I’m not forgetting the actual lies they
spilled, in print, on film, in the law itself!
I’m not giving a pass for the illegal waivers Obama
permitted, to which lawlessness Congress looked the other way. I’m not overlooking the many changes in the
actual law which were taken without authority in order
to make it conform to simpleton standard.
I just think it’s more reprehensible to trick a stupid populace.
Yes,
let’s be clear and honest. Most people
in the world are stupid. They are not
capable to discuss public policy without wincing, stuttering, surrendering,
getting angry, or yawning. By “stupid” I
mean unwilling, not unable. And this is
what Gruber meant also. Gruber’s
statement, that Obamacare was sold to a stupid
public, doesn’t imply that you can’t understand it once it’s applied, but that
you either can’t or won’t engage in a meaningful discussion beforehand. Gruber is saying that your hand must be
forced, that YOU must be forced, to confront inequities in the healthcare
system. But understand this…
The
inequities Gruber is talking about are the ones he and his fellow MIT yahoos
THINK are most important. If that means
your deductibles go up, be damned! If
that means your rates go up, don’t care!
If that means you lose your doctor, oh well! Gruber believes that Gruber is the
savior. Gruber believes that whatever
Gruber does, irrespective of consequences, it’s good. And if it’s not good, it WILL be good. And if it’s still not good, it’s YOUR fault
for not liking it, not implementing it, not giving it a chance, etc.
And
here’s the hard truth – Gruber is right about one thing – that, for the most
part, nobody wants to discuss healthcare, healthcare reform, or anything to do
with entitlements, because in politics it’s the “third rail” and in the
community it’s like politics and religion to most people: somewhat boring,
infuriating when discussed, unfixable.
So we
are now in Gruber-land, where if the public desires not to discuss a subject,
or is otherwise satisfied with the status quo, a team of “experts” will be
tasked by the government, at taxpayer expense, to design a system which suits
the experts and government, but not necessarily the public. The excuse will be that the public had its
chance and blew it, now it will be “fixed” by whichever party holds the power.
This
is the same template now being used for immigration, that the people, not
wanting blanket amnesty, are stupid, and that the Republicans had their
chance. Therefore, the Democrats will
ram through whichever irreversible damage suits them, whether that means not
prosecuting illegals, permitting illegal immigrants
to march in the street unmolested, or even giving children of illegal
immigrants a break. It doesn’t matter
whether John Q. Public is for it – that is just leverage to get the next step
of the ladder down, to move the Overton Window of plausibility and tolerance
for lawlessness.
Meanwhile,
And the public? It yawns.
Oh, in between yawns, it makes a noise like outrage, but then back to
shopping, eating, television, and other distractions. Are we stupid? Perhaps not. But we sure are spoiled to think that no
matter what anyone does, or which law is passed in what way, our lives will not
be negatively impacted to any severity, but will remain just as it was, or will
even get better. Is that stupid? Or is that just normal human
hopefulness which evil people use to their advantage?

DEATHERS AND SLAVERS
Of the Five Evils, I think Corruption to be the worst.
Hedonism is a pestilence but it is unorganized, except
by the corrupt. Crime is organized but
does not provide enough to be condoned.
Savagery is murderous but, when not controlled by Corruption, can be
snuffed out without public outcry.
Statism is all-encompassing, but there is the Platonic “benevolent
dictator” who can make the Statism of lawfulness, and
with Torah can make the Statism of God.
But Corruption is the domain of those who purely want death and/or
slavery.
Corruption is, in modern lay-language, the New World
Order. Or, as we like to say here at
Now, you might ask, and rightly so, what does
Corruption, or the New (Old) World Order, gain by exterminating mankind? Don’t they need our numbers to farm, to
perform labor of building and repairing, to transport? Don’t they need our varieties to devise new
and better ways to live and do things?
Yes and no. Before the technology
of the transistor, men were necessary at all times. Since then (ca 1947), men have become
increasingly obsolete. It’s not so much
mechanization, or automation, or even Marx’s alienation of the
proletariat. It’s not the labor-saving
which threatens man. No, it is the
machinery, the technology, itself.
Many have made similar statements. Some have adopted the RFID chip as mankind’s
final falling card. Others think the
“rise of the machines” a la Terminator is the end. I cannot say that I disagree. The MEANS to our end can certainly come by
implanted chip, whether we such chip voluntarily
(implanted cell phone being an obvious choice here) or it is forced upon us
(let us say via vaccine, for example).
The MEANS to our end can certainly come by way of robotic army, as is
being manufactured at this moment, or by drones, or any combination of
emotionless soldier or unmanned weapon.
In actuality, the technology itself is not the issue,
for it is that robots and drones, IN THE RIGHT
So, here are the questions we must ask to discover how
ripe we are for slavery or death. (1)
Are humans corrupt enough to use technology for enslaving or for genocide? Yes.
(2) Has Corruption ever attempted to enslave the
entire world? Yes.
(3) Are there cadres of corrupt humans who believe in
eugenics and depopulation? Yes.
(4) Is Corruption organized enough to mastermind
worldwide enslavement or genocide?
Maybe!
(5) Is the technology advanced enough to carry out
such a master plan of Corruption? Maybe!
Thus, knowing that humans can be THAT CORRUPT, and
that many bids for world domination have occurred throughout history, and that
the self-appointed elite of this world hold views regarding complete domination
of mankind’s decision-making, the only questions remaining are whether the
technology is secured, and the organization wide enough, to make the goals of
the corrupt accessible and achievable.
Let’s say for the moment that the technology is in
place. I think we can agree that the
civilized nations have placed their trust in the combustion engine,
refrigeration, the computer, the GPS, and the cell phone. And that the military of Corruption, the New
(Old) World Order, is mightily equipped with worldwide spying technology, kill
switches, smart bullets, nano-robotics, mosquito
drones, and not to mention good old-fashioned nuclear weaponry. In every case, then, except for the intervention
of God, or conscience, Corruption can almost immediately shut down our
technology while keeping their own working perfectly, placing all non-aligned
people at an immediate disadvantage.
Add to this the wide array of super-viruses, chemical
weapons, and targeted bombs, whether conventional, dirty, or neutron, and
humanity has no chance to mobilize against a motivated and focused Corruption.
If all of this is true, our only hope is a schism at
the top. Where Corruption meets, we must
pray that Corruption dissents with itself.
We must pray that there is more than one goal of Corruption. We must hope and pray that, within the inner
chambers of Corruption, there are those who do not want to exterminate mankind
but would rather only keep them enslaved.
In other words, we must hope and pray that the elite are split between Deathers and Slavers.
We must hope and pray that the Slavers have made a
valid enough argument for our continuation, or that the Slavers hold the upper
hand. We must count on the last vestige
of humanity in the soul of the Corrupt which has pity upon our smallness, and
realizes our value, even our hidden value.
We must hope and pray that the Slavers are strong enough to keep the Deathers from using the technology available against humanity. We must hope and pray that we have such an
advocate for men, and proponent for Life.
And even among the Slavers, we must hope and pray for
a benign slavery, as we are used to. That we should be allowed to continue in luxury, privilege, and
bounty, even if unequal among us.
We must hope and pray that within the Slaver influence there is a
champion for freedom of expression and economics, which believes that men are
enslaved best when they believe they are not enslaved at all. And we must hope and pray that the Slavers
who would make us all farmhands and prostitutes (think Agenda 21) are
outnumbered, outflanked, outranked, or just plain outvoted by the Slavers who
would permit us our liberty.
For it is that the Constitution of the
In
But this freedom that we hold dear, this lap of luxury
which we take for granted, is not a thing that exists without help. For it is that, from the beginning even until
today, there are the elite who would rather we did not have such freedom and
luxury, and there are the elite who would rather we do not exist at all.
And it does not matter that these latter elite see our
collective excess as debauchery, or as wasting resources, or see our collective
stupidity as a blight.
They cannot be turned from the idea that the world would be a better
place without our eating, drinking, smoking, entertainment, politics, religion,
and, yes, our very breathing, which adds only carbon to the atmosphere and not
one iota difference to evolution. Or so
these elite believe.
And therefore we are either at the mercy of these Deathers, those elite who desire our collective death, or
we are at the mercy of Slavers, those elite who desire our collective harnessing,
as pack horses, for the good. I grant
that the choice we have is barren, harsh, and hard to swallow, but I submit
that we are subject to the whims of these two factions at all times.
Where are we now?
Who’s in charge, Deathers or Slavers? It’s difficult to say. The importation of Ebola into
One thing is certain: only God can rescue us now. And God can only rescue us if certain of the
elite come to their senses. And the
elite can only come to their senses when they stand down from their arrogance,
from playing God. And this will only
happen when they accept a Law greater than themselves. And this shall happen only when the Law
becomes law for the greater part of the population. And this will only happen under Torah.
While it is not a foregone conclusion that we may be
saved through Torah, it is a foregone conclusion that we will perish without
Torah. The Law cannot be ignored without
consequences. But whether the elite
would destroy us if we all accepted Torah, that is a different dilemma, but we
should rather be willing to die for Torah than to die for Hedonism, Crime,
Savagery, Statism, or Corruption.

Isaiah
54:3-5
And so we have arrived. Five Evils at top speed careen forward.
CORRUPTION continues its spread among the human condition, from the most powerful men in the world to the least powerful. The willingness to despoil has always been, but now it is on the grandest scale. Those who were willing to steal are now willing to commit mass murder for it, or to remove wealth for good, returning civilization to a medieval state of complete dependency. It’s not only that the rich grow richer, or that government continues to collude with corporation. It’s also that The Mark is being taken by many more every day. Good people are turning from goodness in order to keep buying and selling. They ignore corruption, so it grows. The elected are corrupt, but the voters keep reelecting them. There is no outcry for impeachment, no uprising of any magnitude. The sheep sleep, corrupted by the fake money and real luxuries.
SAVAGERY continues its spread also. The Islamist becomes bolder, beheading, annexing. No mercy shall be gathered there, and it shall spread until they win or Torah wins. Savagery emboldens savagery. In the civilized nations, radicalism grows daily. Not protests against injustice, but violence in the name of manufactured crises. Marches with Molotov cocktails in the name of slain hoodlums. In the name of unlived slavery, Twitter mobs enter stores to cause damage and harm. People are knocked out at bus stations because savage youth is bored. Fight clubs exist in formerly genteel communities. Road rage grows because driving is more aggressive, and driving is more aggressive because city planners nearly desire savagery. Bureaucrats of untold corruption manipulate society to their whim, either not understanding or not caring about human reaction.
STATISM continues to spread
also. The old guard,
CRIME continues to spread also. The crimes of corruption, savagery, and statism are many, but there is also a growing mindset to join power. If not geopolitical power, many fatherless boys join gangs and cartels, eager for a little cash, and fun in exploitation. It matters not anymore for conscience. Sex slavery, drug mule, kidnapping – this and more has no effect on their heart. And, as always, mafias control several key industries, and power in government. HEDONISM continues to spread also. The culture of death expands daily. People enjoy not only their slow death in opiates, alcohol, and pills, but also their quick death in supporting assisted suicide, unnecessary wars, and open borders which are invitations for terrorists, criminals, and diseases. They smoke their herbs and sniff their aerosols while the other evils run rampant over them. They abort, then deny the life they snuffed for their own life. They don’t care that Monsanto admits to stealing land by permitting their trespassing seed to blow onto unsuspecting farms, or that the food grown from these seeds can transmute the body. They desire the transmutation from human to the unknown species which requires the altered food, water, air, light, and other things the elite demand be changed. The human thus transmuted desires not Law, that bonding of society through mutual assent of boundaries, but every form of taboo. They desire unnatural sex, unnatural bodies, and the permission to be wicked. The strictness of religion is, to them, bad, but radical paganism and open witchery to them is, if not good, at least not wrong.
THE SOL
CHRISTIANS MUST ACCEPT TORAH if this world is to be saved. There are not enough Jews, and certainly not enough Torah Jews, to make the difference. Only 2 billion Christians exerting the Law of God can reverse the complete takeover of the Beast. Acceptance of Jesus is a good start, and helps you to find your own salvation, but it does not save the world. It is a shame that, from the start, Christians have been taught to avoid anything Jewish, as if Torah is harmful. If Torah is harmful, why did Jesus perform it completely? If Torah is harmful, why did Jesus say, “Whoever teaches the least commandment shall be called greatest in heaven”? Christians who fight against Torah are mainly hedonists who fear giving up certain pleasures of food and relationship, hedonists who fight against Torah because they believe their freedom is more important than society, more important than the Word of God. Their idea of Jesus is someone who saves them from Torah, when in fact Jesus is someone who saves from sin, and sin is the breaking of Torah commandments, which is why the church teaches we are all sinners who cannot keep the whole Law. While that is true, it is not an excuse to give up trying, especially since Jesus was no example of such surrender, but completely lawful in Torah, for the doctrine says he was sinless. If Jesus had the attitude of today’s Christian, he would have done as he pleased, teaching sin. In such case, he would not be worthy of praise, and the Pharisees wouldn't have needed any false witnesses against him.

As you know, I am in favor of a Torah Nation and world. As you also may know, I believe there are Five Evils to confront at all times, and that we are now in a state of the world which is in crisis on all five fronts at once.
Let's look at this week's Five Evils Report:
1) SAVAGERY. By savagery, we mean a propensity to commit violence and murder in a barbaric fashion, with a purpose of domination. While savagery can also be applied to other evils, there is a barbarism which seems endemic to a people, almost genetic. As usual, the Muslims are at the top of the heap here.

Homosexuals were enraged this week to find their fab-ness stolen by Gallo Nero, who stole their thunder by advertising “straight” ice cream.

And Obamacare, meeting a defeat in the courts, has decided the courts are wrong and to go on with redistributing wealth anyway.
3) CORRUPTION. The New World Order integrated its factions this week, promenading Hillary Clinton around Iowa to draw attention away from Obama golfing, which draws away attention from the fact that America funds ISIS, which draws away attention from the border, which draws away attention from Ebola, which draws away attention from Benghazi, which draws away attention from Fast and Furious, which itself was a diversion.
The Fed continued to pump out the fake money unabated, even as tax receipts reached a new high, causing some to ask, "If you're gonna print, why do you need my taxes?" This drew an immediate SWAT response. Four dead, including a dog.
Glenn Beck continued his tirade against anyone who disagrees with him, and feigned more ignorance who Alex Jones is or what Building 7 might be. 9/11 came and went without a victory in hand again. And the TSA, NSA, and DHS felt up and spied upon a record number of travelers who enjoy being slaves.
4) CRIME. The topper of the list this week was learning that the Mexican cartels are not only running sex slave rings and drug mules into America, and not only dropping illegals into every possible spot, but are also inserting terrorists over the border. Why not? Our border guards do nothing anyway. And before you criticize the criticism, aim your gun over that way.
Mafia topped the charts again this week on IMDB, and glorifying crime and the thug culture hit new heights when a rap party turned into a shoot-em-up and TMZ was there to film the whole thing, for your pleasure. Exposure of entertainers as former pimps, drug lords, and even murderers failed to dent the charts.
5) HEDONISM. Marijuana made a name again for itself by failing to produce enough tax revenue to justify its legalization. When questioned, nobody cared. More transportation wrecks are noted due to pot use, but these were overshadowed by increased alcohol-related accidents by drunk illegals.
Ray Rice made the news for hitting his wife, proving that Americans can really get behind something very trivial when they put their mind to it. Female Ravens fans jeered Rice by wearing his jersey for Monday Night Football. ESPN publicly apologized for these women, but those sportcasters were immediately dismissed for being insensitive.
More abortions were performed than ever before last week, but experts are sure these will decrease with the rise in homosexuality.
Tattoos continue to mark up bodies everywhere in celebration of "Drunk Night Out" Day. Bacon was the #1 tattoo of the week. If that offends you, you need sensitivity training.
That's it for now. Goodnight and have a Torah week.
Isaiah
53:4-5
We continue into the Truth of the matter, the heart of the matter, which is that the Law of God is rejected, and therefore nations stumble and fall, and therefore the people of the Law of God are persecuted. Those who follow the Law of God are persecuted for issuing warnings concerning rejection of the Law of God, while those who were supposed to follow the Law but didn’t (Jews, Christians) are persecuted for NOT following the Law! Nevertheless, those who reject God’s Law will be applauded by evil, but the prophets of Truth shall be vilified by EVERYONE!
What is the Truth? 1) That God exists. Here, you will meet your first stumbling block from the minority of non-believers, who have found their strength in a weak society, where they thrive, and in a government which does not serve the majority, as true democracy, but the minority, as a fascism of that minority. More to the point, the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers have found friends within the Supreme Courts. This affects every person, forcing tolerance where none needs to be socially, never mind religiously or spiritually. The minority sneers at , cries against, whines about, and finally sues the majority which keeps the minority in its true place, not equal. Sympathizers join in. A media with an agenda, not objective, chimes in. Soon, a cacophony of boos and banana peels against the majority. And the result? A loss of morale among the majority. And this matters why?
When the chips are down, and this is coming VERY soon,
the majority will have no interest in helping the minority, except for the sake
of the common land which both occupy.
The minority will scream for help because, let’s face it, there aren’t
enough atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers to beat back the Muslims or
the communists. In the past, this sort
of talk was ALSO grist for the mocking mill.
But now that the Caliphate mentality is spreading everywhere, and both
I have foreseen and written about every bit of
this. The Mark and the Chaos, available
for free, delineates what exactly the Mark of the Beast and the Mark of God
are, and exactly who the players will be in a global showdown. Some might say, “That’s not exactly a
difficult thing to predict,” but those same people were only a few years ago
mocking those predictions! Caliphate? Unthinkable.
Communism arisen again? How
quaint. Christianity
weakened from within and begging for a charismatic leader? No way.
Jews persecuted again as the scapegoats for all things? We have evolved. No, you haven’t.
But you see how far afield we go already when discussing whether God exists? Because those who say they disbelieve God really mean they are not interested in participating in the struggles of mankind. They view all this chaos as due to religion. And they logically assume that if God is such a great guy, such a cool dude, either the religion(s) would reflect that coolness, that greatness, or God Himself would make Himself known and set quite a few things straight.
We can argue their logic and conclusions, but even if we stipulate how right they are, the main complaint is not against God, but against His representatives on Earth. For it is that the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers all desire a powerful hand to protect them, as all do, but they cannot turn to God for that protection due to their anti-God stance. Or, more accurately, their anti-Torah stance.
2) Torah. Torah is Law. Law sets the standard for all things. It tells how men shall behave, both in private and public. It tells how communities and nations shall treat citizens. When the law is flouted, there is crime. It’s interesting that those who reject the notion of Torah, that is, a Law from God, desire protection themselves under two godly documents, the Constitution and Torah!
From Constitution, the ungodly believe they have equal rights under a 14th Amendment, or a 1st Amendment, but these Amendments speak to the rights of citizens to be free from a certain amount of regulation from government, not from each other. So that, when the minority gain access to government, and thereupon utilize government to protect their interests, they break the very Constitution they say is there to protect them. No, the Constitution is not there to protect people from people – those are community laws, each different among the many – the Constitution is there to protect the people from too much government intervention. And if the minority is able to use government intervention against the majority, the Constitution is no longer.
Likewise, Torah. When the minority exerts that men should love their neighbor, that is Torah. Yet that same Torah tells to kill the man who commits a homosexual act, who is convicted in a court of Torah law. That same Torah commands to love God with all your heart, soul, and might. That same Torah commands to destroy the Canaanite, the Baal worshiper, the Moloch worshiper, and the blasphemer.
So if the Constitution were truly exerted, the will of the majority, the godly, would win the day, every day. And if the Torah were truly exerted, the will of God would win the day, every day.
What would the nation be at such a point? First, the minority would have no access to special protections which the Constitution does not afford, for the Constitution is not there to force people to accept people, the Constitution is there to force government to accept people whom the communities have decided they accept. So if the communities accept Jews but not Muslims, the government cannot intervene through Constitution, but only by a civic action which they think overrides Constitution. Their opinions, their feelings, their thoughts are more important than the law of the land. The mere fact that great throngs cheer these unconstitutional moves does not override the Constitution. Only an Amendment to the Constitution can change it. But that is too difficult, in fact, impossible for the minority to achieve. And so it is rage, collusion, illegality, stacked courts, and lawsuits against the weakened which temporarily give the minority an upper hand.
Second, the minority would not survive a Torah nation. But then, neither would the adulterers and bacon-eaters. For in a Torah nation, no commandment is too small to be ignored, and no doctrine overrides the eternal law. In a Torah nation, Jesus Christ would be heeded, that “whoever teaches against the least commandment is called the least in heaven.” Apologists who say they are not teaching against commandments, but only explaining the grace which Christ gives Christians to break commandments, willfully, are even worse. In a Torah nation, neither the heathen nor the self-proclaimed permitted lawbreaker survive.
And this is good. For in a Constitutional nation, the Law is supreme, and those who are against that law are criminals, and those who are radicals against that law are traitors. The idea that civil rights are gained by civil disobedience is incorrect. Lawbreaking deserves punishment. Whether the Constitution is amended is a different point. It cannot be assumed that the Constitution will be amended due to radicalism. It must be assumed that the communities shall be able to quell radicalism by their own means without government intervention.
Now, some may say that such rampant lawfulness leads to lynching and vigilantism. But those are crimes also. The solution is not to destroy the community for the sake of peace, but to permit the community to police itself. These are hard choices, to be sure. Civil wars are sometimes fought over such things. But if the government enters the civil war, the end is fascism over everyone, and the resulting quiet is called peace, but it is a police state, and whoever controls that police state will conduct that civil war anyway.
Under Torah, there is no escape. Torah cannot be amended. Jesus Christ cannot change anything, and he specifically said he did not come to change Torah, not a jot nor a tittle, and it is completely ascribed to him by Christianity that he performed his Torah duties perfectly. How then can the followers of Christ not desire Torah? It is due to lawlessness, in this case the desires of hedonism, all justified by certain phrases made by Jesus, Paul, Peter, and so forth, including the claim that pork is permitted. How now? I don’t see a clamor for horse-meat to be legal, or rat flesh. Only pig, because it “tastes good.” The idea that God made it clean through a dream of Peter, or a random contextual phrase from Paul, or Christ, is not a Torah argument, nor is it true! For the dream of Peter concerns the uncleanliness of Gentiles, the thoughts of Paul are summed up on "Do you have faith? Have it to yourself in front of God," and the words of Jesus concerned unwashed hand, pots and pans, none of which is commanded under Torah. So Christ was right and lawful, but Christianity uses his lawfulness to justify their unlawfulness.
And it is not a small thing that pork is of conflict. For neither do the Christians have any intention to give up this “freedom to eat.” And neither do they care that the Jews, their friends, they say, are underwhelmed by this freedom, or that such contentions in the past led to the slaughter of Jews, from the time to Constantine until the present day, depending where you live(d). So that Torah is undone, and those who proclaim the Law of God, yes, even where it concerns bacon, are persecuted because they are in favor of the Law.
“But,” you may say, “if you believe the majority holds sway over the community, shouldn’t bacon be lawful in the community?” According to democracy, yes. According to Constitution, yes. But there is one larger context, and that is God. Thus, if we return to the very first premise and Truth, that God exists, it becomes an hypocrisy for the Christians to say they believe in God, and God’s Law, but thereupon use many reasons and excuses to break God’s Law, to eat bacon because it “tastes good.” Christ did not die so you could eat bacon. Rather, He died so you would continue to not eat bacon. He died for the Law of God, not for your selfish desires.
And the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers? Their “bacon” is bolder. And it is of little use for the Christians to complain about God’s Law being broken by the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers, as long as the bacon continues. So, the Christians have four choices: 1) continue to eat the bacon, and look the other way while the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers thrive, 2) stop eating the bacon, and have every right to persecute the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers, 3) continue to eat the bacon, and have no right to persecute the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers, but do so anyway in a hypocritical rage, or 4) stop eating the bacon, and permit the atheists, homosexuals, and devil worshipers to thrive.
Of those choices, #1 is the worst of all possible worlds, #3 is the current incorrect atmosphere, and #4 makes no sense at all. Only choice #2 is lawful and logical.
I realize that such statements offend every single person mentioned. That is a necessary consequence of spreading Truth. Shalom.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke
When we view the chaos and carnage in today's world, several questions come
to mind. First, wasn't it just a few scant years ago that things seemed
peaceful? Well actually, it's been about 20 years since things were
"peaceful." Twenty years ago is when Bill
Clinton finally pushed us too far: His marital infidelity, his
initiation into
By the time Gore and Bush openly fought over who won 2000,
Twenty years ago, racial divisions were a bit better. Rodney King wanted us all to get along. OJ Simpson's "victory" gave many blacks an opportunity to gloat. Bill Cosby was one of the most popular syndicated TV shows of all time. And rap music was still not exactly mainstream. Today, we have a "black" President who enjoys inciting riots and fanning flames. Yes, enjoys.
But this isn't new. Louis
Farrakhan has been around a long time, as have Al
Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the usual bunch of
criminals and nuts who parade. Give them credit, though, for longevity
and their ability to command attention, if not respect. No black alive today
was ever a slave in
What would the Panther movement be without the Weather
Underground? And if you think Bill Ayers is dead and forgotten, you're

That's the second question: Why?
What is wrong with us that we would permit Fox to air Ayers without making a gigantic stink? To me, Ayers is one of the most dangerous people in America.
As is Richard Trumpka, who purports to be for the working man, but who is for the Old World Order, specifically the Clintons.
These are just examples. There are probably 1000 people globally I could name who need to be offed tomorrow in order to make this world less savage, less corrupt, less Marxist, less criminal, less hedonist. That's in America, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Central America, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Pakistan, Gaza, Nigeria, Libya, and several other places of interest; basically, one thousand of these people so that the rest of us can breathe again.
Now, you might ask, and rightly so, wouldn't the vacuum simply be filled with more evil? If those people die natural deaths, of course. If it's a coup from within, naturally. But I was talking about the less probable event, that good people would take things into their own hands.
Is that an oxymoron that good people should or would take things into their own hands? I think the thought that it seems like an oxymoron is what keeps good people from doing right things. They think, "I'm not going to stoop to their level." And so the evil continues while good people do nothing, all in the name of having a clear conscience. Or so they think. It's really for vanity, so other people will say what a good person they are for not stooping to such-and-such level. Meanwhile, evil continues as good people pat themselves on the back.
And make no mistake: evil people know how good people think, and evil people pat good people on the back for not making waves. That's why on TV you see even some CONSERVATIVES getting compliments for accepting evil - compliments from evil people!
And this brings us to our third question: If good people are going to do nothing, how will good people finally win the day? Or, more simply, will a miracle occur?
If you're waiting for God to bring things to balance again, I'm with ya on that. However, good people standing around waiting for Him is the reason He has to come in the first place! If we wouldn't stand around yakking about the next Coming, and would in fact do something outside of our vanity, God wouldn't need to bail us out because He's already given us the grace to accomplish what needs to be done. It is completely vain to think that we are good people for doing nothing, or for tenderly applying ourselves to tough objectives, or for withdrawing from confrontation. And it is completely vain to think that God is on our side when we've done nothing except proclaim how righteous we are for doing nothing!
So, just on that subject, we need more than a miracle. We need God to overlook how completely selfish and hedonistic we are. Hedonistic? Yes. Remember, Revelation 13 tells us that, to permit the continuance of buying and selling (economy, eating and drinking), "good people" took the Mark of the Beast. Taking the Mark of the Beast simply means to allow evil to run rampant, as long as your lifestyle isn't too negatively impacted. It's a form of privilege, to think that no matter what you do, you're safe, or that you're just being pragmatic. Well, you're not safe. And pragmatism isn't stopping evil from spreading.
So what are we actually waiting for? Are we hoping evil will just die off on its own? I have news for you - it won't. We didn't nip it in the bud, we didn't make examples of anyone, and now there is an entirely new generation of militant radicals who have no fear of God, and who have an entire lifetime to work at controlling, or destroying.
Islam? Reared from birth. New, young converts every day.
Corruption in government? Brand-new staffers and interns every day, learning the ins and outs of graft, nepotism, favoritism, and all the things we love about government.
Statism? Nationalistic socialism is always the breeding ground of the poor, and if there's one thing the young love to purport they endorse, it's the end of poverty. Especially their own poverty. So we now see dozens of neo-Nazi groups popping up in the unlikeliest of places. Likewise, Communism is annually groomed in our universities, even high schools. And always the unionization of the impoverished, as if unionization automatically gives the poor the sophistication necessary to get what they want, or to fight the corruption inherent in that socialism.
Crime? If the new rap
generation doesn't scare you, perhaps the pace at which gangs are growing, due
to increase in fatherless children, due to mindless acceptance of
single-motherhood, will scare you. Or perhaps you think our cities, such as
And hedonism? Forget about it. Whether its sensuality, ingestion of pharmacopeia, piercing of skin, acceptance of paganism, or just plain eating and drinking, everybody is out of control. Youth is not more clean-cut than the older generation, which is scary by itself, to think that the oldsters are also juvenile in mind. I was a youth, and I did youthful things, but in the end I wanted to be accepted for who I was, as a good person. Today's youth wants to be accepted no matter what they do, good or bad. Their motto is not "you can't judge a book by its cover" (true) but "you can't judge me!" (false). That is an exertion of hedonism as hegemony! Sodom and Gomorrah, in other words.
So we cannot simply think better times are coming. We are not evolving spiritually, but decaying into pagans. We are not evolving towards holiness, but simply tolerating evil. We are not evolving physically, except the most savage will defeat the weak and fey, which means the Muslims win. Except the Old World Order has better weaponry. However, it's in evil hands. Hmm. Maybe I can just "accidentally" hit the chessboard and start the game all over?

Isaiah
53:1-3
We are in the same position as every other great empire or civilization, which is to say we are poised for greatest downfall. As Isaiah, we attempt to alert whoever will listen that what we are seeing is a complete absence of Torah, from the way that we worship to the items which we eat to the government which we endure, if not demand.
“Who hath believed our report?” Today’s lesson is that the “suffering servant” is one who is not desired by men but who nevertheless speaks as a reflection of the Law of God. Think Jesus is the suffering servant? Then you must acknowledge Him as the bearer of the Law, for all to hear and obey. Think Jesus came so you did not have to obey? You are WRONG.
What is “despised” and “rejected” is not Jesus, for His life is of little difference to any other person who is persecuted merely for his heritage or family tree. What is despised and rejected is God’s Law, Torah.
Those who claim Jesus came to relieve them from the Law despise the Law. Those who claim the Law was twisted by the Jews despise the Law. Those who claim there is no God despise the Law. Those who claim the Law represses their rights despise the Law.
It has no comeliness for them. It is ugly and disgusting to them. Consequently, the Jews, the bearers of the Law, are likewise ugly and disgusting to them. The hatred towards the Jews is the hatred of the Law. What are Jews? They have money? So do many others. They have power? So do many others. This jealousy of what the Jews have is not of their money or power, but of the fact that God chose them, and specifically to bear the Law.

Whenever the prophets of the Bible chose to remain alof from current events, especially as it concerns God’s people, God called them harder and louder. Whether Moses, Jonah, Jeremiah, or Jesus, the Lord God shows us we cannot run away to hide in the desert/wilderness. We cannot ignore the absence of Torah.

As students of history, we can honestly say “we have never seen it this bad in human history.” Besides the confluence of the rise of all these Evils, combined with a great ebb in Torah thought, both among Jews and Gentiles, there is technology. Never before has it been so simple to transmit military plans, diseases, devastation. Never before has it been so easy to catch communications from enemies and supposed enemies. Never before has the planet been a place where there is almost literally “nowhere to hide.”
The Mark of the Beast is the willingness to go along with Evil in order to maintain life or lifestyle (to “buy and sell,” as it says in The Book of Revelation). With this confluence of Evil about, it is a simple enough matter for a person to say in his or her conscience, “I just want peace,” or “I just want to live my life,” or “What can I do about it?”, and to do nothing. With technology, it is also easy enough to become lost in a permanent escape. The formula for disaster is plain.
What can we do? Accept
Torah.
And not only accept, but believe. Believe
and do.
If we will turn from our sins, which are from the Law, and nowhere else, and expect, no, force, our public officials to do likewise, we will have a society worth having again. It is force which is necessary. It is might which is necessary. The “sword of the Lord” is not a sheathed instrument that never comes out. The sword of the Lord IS Torah.

51:17-23
Hatred for the Law. Hatred of oneself. This is what we see in our society and civilization today.
What we call “Western Society” has decided that God’s Law, Torah, is NOT the protective shield, but rather a forward mouth and discord are the protective devices, and therefore “calamity” shall come quickly (Proverbs 6:12-19). Not refraining from male homosexuality, but affirming and seeking it as a right, even a birthright. Not refraining from abortion (deliberate killing of life, which is murder), but celebrating it as a godsend to the poor and the fearful. For it is that a fearful world seeks not God but men who make laws in their favor, to comfort them.
Western Society has also decided that it is guilty. There is self-loathing for being white, being an oppressor, being a colonialist, being wealthy, being a man, being consumerist. Other than being an oppressor, none of these things are wrong. Even being an oppressor against anti-Torah sinners is not wrong. Yet it is “trendy” to hate oneself, to desire one’s own demise at the hand of one’s own enemy. It is trendy to desire slavery, and the end of an empire.
For what? If there is atonement needed for the self, repent! If there is atonement needed for society, follow Torah! Otherwise, it shall be savagery that rules you, fascism, corruption, crime, and lascivious desires of brutality, deviance, and death.

Isaiah
51:13-16
The collectivists tell you what you “need.” They tell you what you need beyond what they say you need is… selfish, guilty, racist, denier, dangerous, psychotic. In reality, they project. It is selfish to control behavior to satisfy your own goals regarding ego, conquest, or even do-gooding crusader-ship. In fact, “Crusader” is the tern reserved for religious conquests, and therefore the scientific crusaders are as hypocritical as it gets. The religious crusaders are right at least in their passion that God has commanded certain things. And when it comes to commands, we know Torah is the King, in fact the Only Law. When God commands, “Thou shalt have no other god before me,” he means no other LAW. For if you regard someone or something as god, you obey it.
Why then should anyone bow to the whims of collectivists, whether sincere or not, when there is God who has beforehand set our limits?
It is the collectivist who is guilty of usurping God.
It is the collectivist who is racist, determining which races are too weak to fend for themselves.
It is the collectivist who is the denier of things which are foundational. The progressive believes the way forward is in the hand of man, not God.
It is therefore the collectivist who is dangerous. Psychotically so. For when confronted, it is the collectivist who will attack with fury the person who varies, the individualist.
Why then is Torah collectivism good? First, it is humble, because it notes that man is not ultimately in charge of all things. Second, it is, among all religious laws, the fairest without being squeamish. The account of the Sabbath-Breaker (Numbers 15:32-36) shows that, when confronted with Torah, even the best of us (Moses) can become collectivists in “compassion” rather than obedience. When asked what to do with the Sabbath-breaker, God’s response to Moses was, “I already told you to kill him.” And so they did.
The achievement over collectivism is the humility to God. We do not have greater answers than He. It is the cleansing of society which we fear, lest we be called names. Or, attacked ourselves by those who believe they know better.

or whether it is the Muslim who tells himself that murder is warfare, simply (and understandably!) because his community is filled with violent gatekeepers who shall not permit Torah to enter their hearts;
or whether it is the hedonist who knows what is right and wrong (for is it not written on the heart?), yet fears that his “freedom” and “right” shall be taken away if he does not demonstrate every perversity which he believes not, in order to salvage his own compulsions, whether sexual, psychoactive, or monetary;
or whether it is the atheist (what is an atheist?) who is afraid that he shall not be rational, or, more to the point, that he shall not be KNOWN or SEEN as rational, and therefore does not admit, even to himself, that his self-proclaimed “morality” is but a figment of Torah, portions absconded and sewn together in salivating theory, without God, proud of oneself without thanking a source;
and here the world of fat and lazy men teeters on the edge, as centuries of hatreds and jealousies pours over borders, hands grabbing for that which is not truly theirs, with lies regarding inheritances stolen, yet only savage banshees who haven’t the inclination to fit in, conform, or be lawful to any degree;
and the fat and lazy sit on their bank accounts, their Grace, their virgins, their habits, their reason, believing that one or the other shall be spared the fire and guillotine of those crazed by covetousness, a massive ball of energy untargeted, left rotting in the streets of affluence, told they are “special” since the day they were born (whether fed or hungry), until their belief of entitlement morphs into grabbing hands without Torah;
yet even these shall have to account in from of their own, when the wild eyes look towards THEIR bowl, as the hungry infected are not satisfied with only the rich and luxurious, but must destroy the “impure” of their own basis (whatever that may be), and true carnage reigns throughout a world on fire…

But a LAW.. preexisting, ancient, valid, utilized, recognizable, said to be from God, translatable in its language, with a current following and religion of high order. This of course is Torah. When this Law, this Torah, is applied, the evil will be squashed. How? When men and women are told that whatever they accuse, the punishment shall fall upon them if they are bearing false witness, then the fraud, the corruption, the perjury, WILL end. And when the fraud stops, the truth will be told. And when the Truth is told, it had best be a good Truth, else there shall be a comeuppance.
In this current context, I foresee a youthful uprising and revolution worldwide. Why? To save that which they hold most precious, the connection and communication with their FRIENDS. And why is this different? Occupy Wall Street was a sham. It was a “gimme” revolution, and those don’t last, and are instantly infiltrated by communists. But the war against spying is NOT a gimme revolution, but a LEAVE ME ALONE revolution. When a Leave Me Alone Revolution is afoot, it cannot be stopped or compromised. And with spying, the communists will NOT interject because they WANT spying. Once and for all, we will KNOW.. FOREVERMORE.. that it is the Left which is obsessed with snooping, watching, censoring, controlling, limiting, piece-mealing.
This has the potential to exceed the
anti-war movement of the 1960’s. This
has the potential to overthrow every 1960’s radical now in power, from Obama to Hollande to Abbas to Putin, all products or
vestiges of that past.
Today’s lesson from Isaiah tells us
that God shall be there when the people demand LAW. God gave the Jews judges, but they wanted a
king.

Isaiah 49:3-9
THEIR CONTEMPT FOR US
Looking at an old Terminator 2 Screen Saver CD-ROM, which carried the face of Arnold Schwartzenegger as the Terminator, it occurred to me that we put much stock into our heroes, but our heroes keep letting us down.
And yes, there IS an "us" and a "them." WE are the people who believe in ourselves, the little people, those who struggle. THEY are those who believe in the superiority of their superior intellect and who look down upon our struggles, even our victories.
While We revere those who fought to free the little people from King George, They find the time and energy to point out their weaknesses, inadequacies, hypocrisies. We can't simply like George Washington for what he did, we also have to endure countless attacks on his character, his private life, his properties. The same goes for Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson. But it goes deeper.
Their contempt for our hero-worship must extend down to our religion. Those who love Jesus Christ must be ridiculed incessantly. In the "old days," it would be the contemptuous who would suffer more dire consequences, so now I suppose they think they are getting some revenge for the tortures to their "ancestors" (whether or not related to them)! But even in their struggle against God, they lie to themselves, because they make themselves out to be the little people, that is, Us, and therefore leverage our innate sympathy for the little guy against us. It is a clever tool.
This twist-around did not actually make an indentation into society until the 1960's, when the media all of a sudden took the side of those who wanted chaos for the average American. It was seen as a victory for the little guy, that America the powerful should suffer for its violence against the black man, first and foremost, but then also any other victim which could be dredged up, real or imaginary. Some of this twist-around was likely a backlash to the anticommunism of the 1950's, a "never again" attitude that was manipulated BY communists, using the idealism of youth, who naturally root for the little guy.
By the time the 70's came around, this had worn thin. These commies went underground. The 1980's, however, brought them into the political arena, where they have survived and thrived ever since. They learned that in order to HELP the little guy, they had to CRUSH the little guy! And thereby they understood that not all little guys were equal. In fact, to them, "social justice" became a joke. It was not about following the law for all peoples. It was about USING the law AGAINST those thought to be oppressors. And thereby the warning of Frederic Bastiat (1850) came true.
Socialism, that is, using the law to
take anything from one class to give to another, became a commonplace desire
and reality in
Now the concept is fully
impregnated. It IS
In Congress we hear a cacophony of wailing from white guys who are LOVED by victims. People like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Chris van Hollen. Those who claim to be "down wid it" but we know are either communists in drag or else scared out of their wits for their own safety, which to us little people is more acceptable, even when WE are getting hosed!
But even when we offer such sympathies to those who hate us, we receive nothing but their contempt. Why? You see, they believe they are of a higher order being than you. They even believe they are of a higher order being than those they are helping. They don't REALLY believe that black people and white people are equals! Some believe whites are superior, some believe blacks are superior. But in the hallowed halls of Them, there cannot BE equality of race when every day They make the distinction between who is being oppressed and who is not!
Don't get me wrong. Distinctions are necessary for survival and community. Sameness is a good thing. The little people understand that those who think alike are more apt to protect their mutual interests, whether that be religion, politics, property or country.
But what I JUST wrote They condemn, even as they preach and practice it! How do they get away with it?
I'll tell you the secret.
In reality, YOU believe what They believe. You believe they ARE of a higher order than you. That’s why they’re leaders. You don’t REALLY believe your own ideas are worthwhile, or else YOU would be a leader.
Yet you malign these higher-order beings because you gave them hero-worship and they let you down. Don't reject the truth. It will be your undoing. You see, YOU have as much contempt for yourself, being a little guy, as they do for you.
Oh, you may have a more comforting aspect to it, that in your inadequacy you ought to be able to proliferate and be free, but in the end you know that you are a little guy. You find community with other little guys. You make a big noise in religion and politics. Sometimes you even make some money, or maybe marry a really good-looking or worthy human being. But for the most part, you have contempt for yourself in the arena of building communities.
Guess what? They KNOW you have contempt for yourself, and they COUNT on you to go against your own interests. The proof? These same high-minded cretins, They, are voted in over and over again. And it is not because of the handouts they offer to the poor. It is because, in your contempt, you do not vote, or you do not put in the adequate energy to get others to vote.
And do you know why you don't have that energy? Because deep down you think your ideas are not worthy. You BELIEVE that you ARE the oppressor. You see the black man struggling, and the homosexual crying the blues, and the woman kvetching, and you say to yourself, "Maybe I AM oppressing. Maybe I SHOULD be kinder, more Christian." And then they have you.
Let me be clear. No matter WHAT you do, short of killing yourself and giving all your property to Them, you will never win them over. All your kindnesses will be seen as weakness, and the media and other cronies will blast you as a panderer who is only seeking to soothe his own soul, or get votes, or get sympathy, or save his own skin. You feel it?
The answer? Don't do that! Your sympathies are rooted in wrong doctrines. If you knew the Law of God, you would reject Their covetous talk and thoughts, their theft through "taxation" and other means, their murder in unnecessary wars, their false witness in describing you as an oppressor and/or killer, their atheism, their polytheism, their deviance, their fires of Moloch, even their habits of food and drink!
The Law of God rejects anything not of itself. It does not care if you are a sympathizer with evil or just evil - it condemns you the same. It does not care if you are contemptuous of yourself or not - it demands obedience regardless. It does not command any faith other than to obey because God told you so. It does not demand any pound of flesh other than that written in it.
Some may say this Law of God is violent. Good! There is a counterbalance to sin, and it is to get rid of sin. It is NOT to tolerate it. When you tolerate sin, They have contempt for you. When you do not tolerate sin, They fear you.
Now, a warning. The Christian religion is not the
administrator of God's Law. Not only is
that IN God's Law, and IN the New Testament, it is also proven by mismanaged
history. Islam is not the administrator
of God's Law, and they KNOW it, which is why they struggle so mightily against
In fact, the reason why everyone seems to revile the Jews is due to the knowledge that the Law of God is superior, and that the Jews are its chosen administrators.
But not only is it a matter of authority but also a matter of empowerment. Because the Law of God makes the little guy prosper, They hate it! Communism HATES Judaism (see Marx, "On the Jewish Question"). Christianity, which desires its liberty from Law, has CONTEMPT for Judaism. And Islam struggles for hegemony with Sharia, which is but a distortion of Torah!
So there you have it. The major players in this world each have played Torah against the little guy, when it is Torah which is the SALVATION of the little guy, from making a Sabbath against 7-day work-weeks to offering a society of peace and prosperity. The only question is: Do you have such self-loathing that you cannot accept the free gift of Torah?

Are we doomed? Only God can save us now. When I say “us,” who do I mean?
Certainly, it is Islam which is on the move and on the rise, and where Islam is in the news there is only violence and death. While Christianity may breathe some sigh of relief that Islam will take the public relations brunt, that is cold comfort for the coming world struggle, which has not yet even BEGUN! But if we look only at the violence of Islam, religion in general will suffer a setback, the smug smirking “See? Religion ALWAYS leads to violence.” Perhaps those people will, however, be subsumed.

It is not against Christianity, for Christianity is entreated to accept “social justice” (Communism) and “coexistence” (agnosticism/new age) and even “sharia” (Islamic Law over Constitutional Law and Torah). No, Christianity is only a belief system of doctrine, tailoring God’s Law to its own desires through a series of special offers and apologetics. Christian “law” is so flimsy that it offers no threat to the Beast. Only when Torah is injected, as the fight against homosexuality, is Christianity lambasted. Otherwise, it is treated as a religion for the retarded.

There is only one God. There is only one Law of God. There is thus only one correct path. Only Law can save us now. Law and order. Bastiat knew it. Jefferson and Washington knew it. Jesus knew it. It is not about tolerance, acceptance, coexistence or non-judgment. It is about differentiating between right and wrong, using the most balanced, still-extant-yet-ancient, translatable, ubiquitous law there is. It is Torah. The Law of God WILL be victorious, whether it is in YOUR hands or in the hands of Islam. It’s your choice. The communists can NEVER win because they deny human nature.

Isaiah 48:1-11
We march towards madness. One communist, the Black Russian, stands idly by for the other communist, the White Wolf, and we think there is a cold war, or a hot war. There is NO war. It will be over without a whimper. The world will plunge into darkness, the savages will howl through the streets, and all we’ve known will be wiped out within years. All it will take is one more catastrophe and the power will ebb from the people once more. And why? Because we have given up on Torah. The Jewish people are not gravitating to Torah but towards hedonism. The Christians now tolerate hedonism and communism. The Muslims do not evolve but entrench even further. The Chinese build. That is about ¾ of the world’s population, not counting unbelievers, who think their elitist stance is somehow enlightened or advanced, when Torah itself speaks to them. It is ancient. It is all evil.

Isaiah 47:11-15
We are dumb and easily led. We are like sheep, thinking not for tomorrow, or even the next moment. We think only of our bellies and our anxieties. But OK! Solomon, in Ecclesiastes, says that the best a man can do is eat, drink, and enjoy the good of his labor, of his hands. Nevertheless, Solomon also writes that the entire DUTY of man is to fear God and do His commandments. So it’s not enough to just be a hedonist, thoughtless and carefree. There is duty and obedience also. Now, when there is duty and obedience, there are limits to Hedonism.
In today’s lesson, we learn that
God’s chosen people were no better at learning these lessons. This doesn’t disqualify His chosen people, or

Isaiah 47:6-10
We talk quite a lot about Hedonism. We speak to the fall of empires as a consequence of Hedonism. One aspect of Hedonism is that men and women eat and drink as they like. “What?”, you say, “the fall of empires is due to eating and drinking?” If we believe that God’s commandments are true, and from God, then indeed eating forbidden foods, such as pork and shrimp, is the same as eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. “No, no!,” you reply, “it wasn’t fruit which was the issue, it was the disobedience to… oh… right.” In so saying, any Gentile or Christian authority to permit eating forbidden foods is corrosive to the empire.
Another aspect to Hedonism is
proliferation of sexual attitudes and disintegration of mores. This includes not only the obvious deviances,
such as incest or bestiality, but also the more accepted deviances, such as the
male homosexual act. It is NOT a sign of
progressivism that a society is more embracing of male homosexuality. In fact, it is regressive, because… if the
Law addresses it, and it does, it predates the Law. This means the LAW is progressive against the
more ancient and pagan acts of male homosexuality. That
But let us also note adultery as another Hedonism which instigates the fall of empires. First, the adultery of sex with another man’s wife, which causes neighbor to suspect and hate neighbor. The empire cannot sustain if its inhabitants hate each other more than they do foreign invaders. Besides this practical consideration are many spiritual ones:
(1) the mere act of lusting after your neighbor’s wife is coveting, another deep sin, and one which causes indiscretions which break up otherwise solid marriages and families, divorces and childhood traumas which corrode society to the core,
(2) sex with women who have not divorced for the cause of adultery is adultery, and is like a virus spreading; the fact that such things go on all the time does not make it right or without consequence,
(3) when certain groups of people engage promiscuously, they have sex with women who, by their previous sexual engagement, caused themselves to be scripturally married already; the fact they these women don’t recognize such marriages or laws does not negate God, or the effect on society;
(4) the number of fatherless children from such promiscuity rises exponentially, causing a breakdown on the streets and in homes, with an increase in gangs for support, with commensurate increase in violence in and out of the home; in fact, an entire culture of violence; and if this violence is blamed upon society rather than on the perpetrators, as if the victims deserve what they get, society is about to explode, either to implode or to crush such elements;
(5) due to these cultural elements, and prevailing belief on the sanctity of life, promiscuity also leads to abortions, some 50 million in America alone within the previous 40 years, and this not only is murder (premeditated killing of life), it also is weakness of resolve, for abortion is the inability of the mother to care for its child, and this is not strength.

Why do the heathen rage? Why do the people imagine vain things? First, it’s in their nature. Second, the heathen is not beaten back, and the vain things are not judged by Torah. If Christians will not come to Torah, then destruction will come to Christianity. It’s not enough to say, “Christianity’s been just fine.” It hasn’t. The Jews have carried the day for the Gentile, in always reestablishing the Law. The Gentiles are prolific, no doubt about it, but only when they espouse the portions of Torah which matter, such as regarding money, property, family, and God. We now live in a unique age. Every evil is upon us, and it seems there is no good choice or escape.

Isaiah 46:1-7
The idolatry continues. Oh, not the trite criticisms do I give you regarding money, cars, or status. These are not idolatry. No, instead I speak to you of statism and the “dear leader” who is the head of such statism which makes rules seeking to circumvent and supersede God. For when men make laws which go against Torah, they makes themselves God. Who has the right to make a law contrary to Torah. Why, not even God! The anti-Torah crowd, and they are many, may say that Torah itself is contradictory, but this is not true. Their moaning that one word is not the same as the other does not remove that no commandment blocks the way to obedience in another commandment. And this is the real issue. For while men strain to show that Torah is not perfect by the sight of their eyes, the hearing of their ears, the research of their minds, it is only so that they do not have to follow Torah, not so they can! They have no such goal or aim. Their purpose is not to make Torah clearer but cloudier. Their purpose is not to teach to do but to teach refraining from doing, to teach to disobey.
And why? Simply, there is something in Torah which stops their desires from coming to full fruition. Perhaps it is the commandments which say to refrain from male homosexuality, and the capital punishment for the conviction of such. Perhaps it is the commandment of Sabbath, which tells the State that on one particular day, the same day, every week, I shall not be working. The head of state is then put in the position to either reject Torah and force the Torah follower to work on Sabbath, or to relent to Torah, even if the reasoning is that to press forward against Torah might end in revolution. In either case, it is capitulation to Torah, as it should be.
Perhaps it is the Christian who desires to eat unclean meats of all sorts, and utilizes the death of Jesus Christ as the occasion to dilute Torah so that such eating takes place. Never mind that Christ’s death, according to Christian doctrine, has nothing to do with destroying Torah, but rather is supposed to be a propitiation for blood sacrifice. Where did Jesus say He came to destroy the Law, or any jot or tittle? Did He not say that anyone who broke and taught against the least commandment would be called least? If this is true, why teach to eat unclean meats?
Some might say that Islam is the correct path, but Islam IS Torah, at least according to their own writings, only with improper administrators, chosen not by Torah, that is, not by God, but by men who unlawfully gave themselves permission to administer Torah, under the false pretense that the Jews lost that right and/or privilege. Who gave these Muslims the right to administer Torah? Who told them that the Jews had lost their administration over Torah? Mohammed? Who is Mohammed but another harbinger of outside influence against Torah? As Paul before him, Mohamed made his exceptions, his own rules, and was therefore a statist. That the Sanhedrin of Christ’s time were statists does not justify changing Torah, but only justifies changing out certain ones from the Sanhedrin.
But if one says that Torah is subservient to the “law” of “common sense” or “universal principles,” it again devolves that someone must quantify what these laws are. Commonly, they are dilutions of Torah, involving the Ten Commandments, derivations of charity commandments, and a love of nature which is already in full bloom in, yet properly limited by, Torah. And whenever these more nebulous “laws” are scribed, there is seemingly always a component of pagan nature-worship included, whether it is the worship of trees, the sun, the Earth, animals, or even one particular bright and charming man, that is, the statist.
These words I write today give
meaning to the question, “Why Torah?” and not another way? Torah came before Christianity and
Islam. Torah dissolves the old ways of
polytheism. Torah is the evolution of
religion. Torah is for the many, not the
few. Torah is simple to implement yet
takes a lifetime to fully understand.
Torah makes enemies, which means it has guts and character. Torah comments fully and decisively on the
Five Evils: hedonism, crime, communism, corruption, and Islamism, and makes
them subservient. When Torah is
implemented, the
God wants our obedience, not our sin, not our sacrifice for sin. Focus on the sacrifice means we have little respect for the obedience. Therefore God’s Law, Torah, is once again thrust down. However, as history shows, Torah shall never be fully or permanently defeated or killed, only temporarily misplaced, waiting for the statist to make his next fatal flaw against humanity, when thereafter Torah shall straighten it all out again.

Isaiah 45:20-25
Who is to blame for the mess we’re
in? The Christians,
undoubtedly. Having venerated
themselves as the “new chosen” with the authority to abrogate and abridge the
Law to a certain standard of paganism that suited both their taste to be rid of
paganism, that is, to be Jewish, and their taste to remain pagan, that is, to
be themselves, early Gentile Christianity made a choice to be more sinful than
is permitted, by the permission to ingest unclean foods without purpose of
survival, to create for themselves doctrines which did not conform with God’s
Law, and to generally deify the Jew whose sole purpose and mission was to goad
and push the corrupt Sanhedrin back to proper confines, that is, in Torah. In order to enshrine this decision with some
degree of godly approval, the Christians went about persecuting and destroying
the very people who were persecuted and destroyed for the benefit of these same
Gentile Christians, that is, the Jews.
After several hundred years, the Jewish Christians, the original church,
was about wiped out, or at least spread to such a
degree that it made not a mark against widespread Gentile Christianity. Having disposed of their greatest enemy, the
Law of God (or so they thought), these Christians set about themselves to
decide which school of Trinitarian thought was least pagan, and therefore began
a battle between the followers of Arius and Aristarchus which would rage for decades, bloody battles
fought over whether the Trinity were three faces of God or three aspects, or
whichever degree of paganism suited them best.
It should be noted that the main motivation for retaining this paganism
was twofold, first, that the security of salvation from the effects of sin was
somehow wrapped up in the notion that God died on the cross, an impossibility
of course, for God cannot die, and naturally it is best explained that “God”
died on the cross in that Jesus, the prophet of Torah, the greatest Jewish
evangelist, was killed for standing up to endemic institutional corruption
among His own people, but it was not in the strength of pagans to understand
any of these things, Jewish things, and thus the King of the Jews was
re-crowned as the Savior of the Word, bringing with Him a salvation peculiarly
dispensed only by a belief in the magic and mystical power of His blood, which
of course is a return to the paganism that even the Council at Jerusalem (Acts
15:20-21) dedicates as the first hurdle which all Gentiles must vault in order
to even be considered a follower of Jesus and a member-in-good-standing of the
new sect of Judaism known as Christianity; and second, this paganism was
culturally foundational to the main body of Gentiles brought into the church at
that time (indeed, to this day), Greeks and Romans with mythological religious
roots, Arabs of various polytheism, and sailors from far lands who came to
Israel and Jerusalem. But in
establishing any Christianity with paganism, every particle pagan naturally
takes away from the purity of Torah, that which Jesus taught, that under which
Jesus was perfect and flawless, but not so He could be a blood sacrifice for
heathens, in order that they might continue in their willful paganism, or even
unintentional sin, for we know that Jesus even viewed the expansion of Torah
gospel to the Samaritans to be as pearls before swine, good meat to dogs, but
rather the perfection of Christ was, first, an example to His own people, the
lost sheep of His people, alienated by corruption and hypocrisy in the Jewish
leaders of His day, to bring them back to Torah, and even to Temple, and
second, a light to whoever else desired to take on this burden of the full
Law. I say “burden” because it is clear
that Christianity and Judaism do not share the same view of Torah, or law in
general. It is a generally-known fact
that people leave Christianity, or perhaps more accurately, leave the church
because of hypocrisy and hypocrites, those who say what is right but do not
endeavor very much to do what is right, an obvious flaw in Christian doctrine,
being “not under the law,” giving antinomianism, that is, the attitude that
salvation gives one the right to sin without effect, such as condemnation, sway
to run wild. For when law is undermined
by doctrine of dilution, as in, quite colloquially, “Jesus died for my sins,
and therefore I can eat pork without any fear,” the desires of carnality are
given allowance to exist in a justified state, and there is no power of
persuasion which will convince such a believer that to refrain from pork (for
example) provides any positive benefit, but rather, and quite extraordinarily,
it is considered that to refrain from pork is a step backwards, as if obedience to the Law of God is the more pagan
action than the disobedience! As if the
confidence given, quite without right or justification, to break any least
commandment is the “right stuff” that promotes a higher plane of spirituality,
circumventing, yea, ascending over commandments of God which are eternal and
unbreakable, but which are quite breakable in the minds of Gentile Christians taught
by leaders of incorrect doctrines that to break the commandment is a sign of
spiritual maturity! Is it any wonder
then that many who analyze Christianity see a religion of absurdity, where the
commandment of blood atonement through animal sacrifice is termed “of no
effect” and yet there is named a propitiation, a substitute, for those
commandments “of no effect” which stands in for that which has no efficacy in
the first place! For if the blood of
bulls and goats never could atone for sin, howbeit that the blood of Christ
works where the blood of animals, blood commanded by God to be shed for sins,
has no such workability? This is but one
aspect of absurdity in Christianity which is also hypocrisy, for if belief in
animal blood atonement is to the Christian a fantasy, or even some passé
ritual, why is the substitution of Jesus, whether He is a man or God Himself,
of any more value and usefulness? One
can make grandiose remarks, such as, “The blood of God is always valuable and
useful!” but the instant and effective retort, “How does God have blood?” is so
strong that it must, and does, cause the Christian to retreat behind a wall of
violent possessiveness, and indeed, that has been the Christian answer up until
perhaps the 1800’s. That Christianity
has matured as an attitude, and violence among Christians towards anyone is
frowned upon, it does not remove that Christians still ferociously guard this
mystical religious dogma with every fiber of their being, as if the mere belief
in the doctrine itself is what promotes salvation, when it is actually clear
that the entire gospel of Christ was “Repent!”
The one difference between Christianity and Judaism, if we can say there
is only one, is that Christianity promotes a type of hypocrisy that demands obedience
while also not only disallowing various commandments of God but also persuades
its followers to cultivate an arrogant notion of their own superior
spirituality based on not following
Law, while Judaism alienates its followers because there are too many laws and
rules! Is it bad or wrong that there are
too many laws and rules? No, that’s the
religion! There is no hypocrisy in
demanding congregants to follow the Law of God, and this is made stronger by
the fact that Judaism is rooted in the genetic aspect of being born Jewish, a
“burden” from birth that commands Jews to not only keep the Law for the good of
themselves, and for their families, and for the communities, both social and
genetic, but also to be a light to the Gentiles, to those who are not born with
the responsibility. It ought to be
obvious that when a group born to a duty to see God’s commandments carried out
in full meets with a group which contends that those same commandments have
been abridged in some fashion, there’s going to be conflict, even blood
spilled. From the beginning, Gentile
Christianity has made its mark by destroying everyone in its path who does not
agree that the Law of God is abridged by the blood of Christ, even though
Christ Himself said He did not come to destroy a jot or a tittle of the Law or
the Prophets! Quite astounding! Quite hypocritical that those who are
Christians ignore Christ in order to keep a doctrine which benefits them solely
to satisfy their carnal desires, for how can it be that Christ died so that you
can eat pork, or shrimp, or wear certain clothes, or groom a certain way, or
plant a certain way. Really? Jesus came, and as a Jew, to set free
everyone from those parts of the Law which separate Jews from Gentiles? You mean to say that the purpose of Christ
was to make Jews more Gentile, not the other way
around? Christian apologists may say
“No, more Jewish than Gentile” but there is, as always, a stopping point to the
Law where even the apologist will not tread, that is, telling the Gentile to
simply follow the Law as the most Torah Jews of the day follow the Law. Can we
imagine a world where Christians follow the Law as if they were Hassidic
Jews? This would put secular Jews to
shame. But as long as Christians insist
that their salvation, their pride, their holiness, their spirituality, includes
“getting away with things” because Jesus died on the cross, not only will
Christianity wither further, but they are particularly culpable for the
destruction of Torah, more so than the Jews, for in their numbers and power the
Christians have made themselves the most holy of people, favored by God, exempt
from Gehenna, and yet how is that possible if their
claim to fame is to accept the sacrifice of a man who was flawless in the Law
while they themselves are exempt for a good portion of that same Law? This is the guilt of Christianity, that it
promotes sin through its own doctrine, yet fights violently to shed that image
and label, but does not change its doctrine to match how violently it
fights! More next

Isaiah 45:14-17
So we come to the conclusion that Christianity is weak and getting weaker, while the Muslims are getting stronger. We understand that both Christians and Muslims have tried to steal the mantle of “chosen” and have not succeeded. Instead, they’ve warred for 1500 years or so. Meanwhile, Torah awaits all who desire not too cold (Christianity) and not too hot (Islam). But what about Buddhism? The virtue of humanity is limited and does not stretch to righteousness, for righteousness is entirely the purview of God. Thus, all who reject God can do more than be “good people,” measured only by the standards of men who dilute and hack at Torah. But if one says Islam is superior, in what manner? Islam also boasts only an imitation of Torah. Come hear a few complex ideas mixed with a bit of fun.

Torah is not a curse. The Law is not a curse. The “curse of the Law” is the punishment we gather for our own misdeeds. The Law of God is not a curse from which to escape. The Christian who says he is “not under the law” has no understanding of the meaning of that phrase. If one is “not under the law,” it is not that one is safe from the Law of God, it is that one is not sinning at the moment. If the reasoning is that Christ puts one “not under the law,” it is that Christ points a person to follow the Law. Is that what Christ said? Was that His mission? Yes! He came to fulfill, as an example, not destroy. Whoever teaches to break the least commandment, He said, is least. There are may ways to prove that Christ is not a remover of Torah, the above examples being only two.
The Christian believes he is an heir to the promise of God. But this is only true if the Christian picks up the mantle of the Jew, to follow Torah. That the Christian has overthrown following Torah for a doctrine of absolution is the undoing of the world, as much as it is when the Jew forgoes Torah for assimilation into Gentile culture. The Christian wants a waiver from the Law of God like a union boss wants a waiver from Obamacare. The Christian wants a bailout from the sins which stem from poor custodial and stewardship like the banks want a bailout from their sins in creating worthless derivatives from worthless mortgages. In fact, if the bank had followed the law, no bailout would have been necessary. If the union boss had stood for his membership in the first place, no waiver would have been necessary. So the Christian looking for this bailout and waiver is an acknowledgement of sin against the Law of God, seeking from the author of the Law an unfair advantage and pardon, which the Law itself forbids!
When the people are vigilant for the law, they are a moral people. This is true for Constitutional issues and spiritual issues. Only a moral people deserve a Constitution, and a deserving people embrace the Law of God fully, and demand its implementation within construct and spec of both word and spirit, judiciously utilizing it to also secure the cultural hegemony.
Islam was born when Arabs saw that
non-Jews took Torah and twisted it for their own means. Mohammed approached the Jews, to fight
against the paganism inherent in Christian custom and doctrine. The Jews instead offered Mohammed a place in
Judaism, saying, “We already have a monotheistic religion with a firm
law!” Mohammed was insulted and
enraged. However, as far from it being
the Jews’ fault that Mohammed came to them, that is how close it is that
Christianity is to blame for the birth of Islam. If the Christians had embraced Torah and not
rejected the Jews, the Law of God, and the
It will do you no good to say, “But the Talmud ruined Torah.” So? Follow Torah without Talmud, if that is your reasoning. But you did not, Christian, because you needed your bailout and waiver, without the hard work associated with keeping the Law for yourself, your family, and your society. Instead, you made rules of behavior which mimicked to some degree Torah, which made you feel as if you were fulfilling some part of a bargain never made.
Here is the proof… What if the

Isaiah 44:9-17
TODAY’S MESSAGE is a message to and for
atheists. Do you notice the idolater
makes a “god” out of something visible, thereby proving that man is the
creator? Is it not obvious that the
container of an idol is the container of what is invisible? For if a man worships something made of wood,
why does he burn wood for heat? Or if a
man worships something made of stone, why does he use stone to build a
structure? No, it is not the container,
the idol, which is holy, but only the invisible God. For what is invisible except that which keeps
what is visible constant? The invisible
God has made our lives easy by commanding us to refrain from idolatry. We do not have to, in fact must not, fashion
any visible thing to symbolize the invisible.
Like a radio which contains waves, but is not the wave itself, the idol
is but a container. What is a
dream? Can we know it by examining the
brain? What is “cold”? Can we know it by building a
refrigerator? No, we may only know the
effects. The invisible God is strength. But if the atheist believes that faith in
invisible things is foolish or worse, why does the atheist have faith in an
invisible “nothing” after death? Or,
rather, why does the militant
atheist find it necessary to destroy religion in order to live in peace? The answer is that faith in an invisible God
reminds the atheist that a belief in “nothingness” is akin to a belief in
invisibility. However, the believer in
an invisible God is not threatened
by an atheist’s beliefs, only the destructive nature of a
militant jihad atheism against religion.
Atheists may claim a fear of religion for many reasons, but experience
now proves that atheists are a menace to religious beliefs in schools, on
public grounds, even on private property, in conversations, and so forth. If religion is so fearful, why does the
militant atheist take the attitude of that which he despises? Again, the invisible God is the reminder of
the invisible. God’s Law is invisible. But the container of God’s Law, Torah, is
visible. How detrimental to the atheist
who desires not to see any evidence of an invisible God! The atheist can always claim that men wrote
Torah, but by the same token men make opinions of atheism. The question is only, which man to
believe. In this regard, who shall the
atheists bring forth? Dawkins? Kierkegaard?
What proof do atheist scientists bring to their vaunted table? What experience do atheist writers extend? None!
Only their biases against commandments which restrain them, religions
which irritate them, elitism which elevates them disproportionately! There is therefore very little for the
atheist to say besides, “I don’t like
it!” Their claims that
religion is the greatest killer of men is false. Atheistic communism has been the greatest
killer. Not only Mao,
Stalin, Castro, Pol Pot, and the rest. But also the national socialists like Hitler,
Genghis Khan, and the tribal socialists like Idi Amin and Mugabe. But further, it is Baal who is the maker of
sameness in the name of rejecting the invisible God. One need only read the Bible to see how
idolaters destroy. Listen to this week’s

The world is careening madly in a final battle between good and evil.

Or, you can choose the way of Torah.

It is not the way of the hippie, with peace and love. As Jesus said, “I did not come to bring peace but a sword.” Listen today to hear what that means. As Jesus said, and I paraphrase, the greatest love is to lay down one’s life for those who do God’s commandments.

Who is God? Who are you?

Isaiah 42:14-25
Five Evils got you down? Is there enough corruption for you yet? Ready to fight back? If the answer is “No” you are not alone. There are so many major and minor wars and skirmishes, both military and spiritual, to fight, it gets tiring. People give up. After awhile, it becomes a blur. Once you saw, now you are blind. Once you listened, now you are deaf. Then, after a time, you don’t even understand the argument anymore, not even the language of the argument. You are in a burning building, smoke is in your eyes, your flesh is on fire, and you don’t even notice. The GOOD NEWS is that there is HOPE. First, there is repentance for sins. Second, there is Torah for guidance into goodness. Third, there is an elect of God’s people who He will save for His own name, His own promise. Who are these people, and how does one recognize? TODAY is the day to find out! As always, we must fight against Corruption, Crime, Hedonism, Communism (collectivism), and Islamism. Be renewed!
Isaiah 42:10-13

Isaiah 42:6-9
Torah will save the world. Torah drives back Sharia
law by providing the proper context and foundation against barbarism. Torah destroys communism by establishing
capitalism, family, and religion (both God and rite) as necessary. Torah commands crime to be punished and
stopped. Torah demands an end to
corruption, making any “one world order” to be fair, just, balanced,
sustainable, and thriving. Torah forces
hedonism (including homosexuality, abortion, and fatherless children) back to
the seedy alley from which it springs.
If you think Torah is a fantasy, I will show you the Law of God. If you think Torah is a Jewish conspiracy, I
will show you Jesus Christ. If you think
Torah is a laugh, I will show you the disintegration of empires.

Isaiah 41:21-29
Are we “doomed”? When someone demands that you “prove the
Bible,” there are only two reasons: (1) that you should give up on improvable
things, or (2) that someone really wants the
Bible proven so they can believe. A true
prophet of God is one who speaks well, not ill, of Torah, and who believes that
when we keep Torah the land shall be blessed.
A true spokesman for the Bible can prove all of his words through the
Law of God, the foundation for all things.
For without Law there is only anarchy and personal preference. Thus, when a prophet of God says “come and
bring me your arguments” your arguments shall only be valid if you completely
dismiss the factual evidence of “thou shalt” or “thou
shalt not.” If
your goal is to accept the foundation of Torah, you shall be well-pleased with
Torah, the Bible, and God. If, however,
your goal is by all means to avoid obedience to anything but your own desires,
you are doomed. But even if you
personally do not suffer much for your choices, you affect the ground upon
which you walk, and your nation shall suffer.
This is irrefutable: that though obedience to God does not always bring
blessings or joy to the obedient, and that the disobedient many times prosper,
a nation of disobedient people is a nation about to crumble. You can argue that Torah is no better than
Koran or Buddha, but you would be wrong.
You can argue that a land without God is a more advanced culture, but
you would be foolish. Come hear today’s
discussion and discover new thoughts.
Isaiah 41:14-20
What is a “worm”? We know the meaning in modern terms to be a
man who is not a man, but a mealy-mouth, or, more specifically, one who does
not stand up for his rights. Yet, to
stand up for one’s own rights is to stand up for everyone’s rights. What good is it to be treated correctly, that
is, through Torah, if one fees his fellow man to the wolves? What good is it to “grandfathered”
in if it means that the next guy doesn’t have the same or similar right? The worm, then, is a man’s soul. And when a man dies, his soul continues on,
as does the worm. The only question is,
will the worm continue on eternally as a worm, or shall it be enlightened to
the greater level? And if still a worm,
shall not that worm be tortured constantly for all of the moments it did not
stand up for the Torah rights of men?
When does that torture end? This
week, we learn that God is constantly moving us to become men instead of worms. Through the words of Isaiah, God HELPS us
moment by moment, providing us with opportunities to become men rather than
worms. As the evil in this world now
manifests itself in a very overt manner, it is imperative that we choose to be
men and not worms, to fight for Torah and not take the Mark of the Beast, to die
for Torah rather than to live like worms.
Isaiah 41:8-13

Isaiah 40:18-26
Who is God? Who are YOU?
Are you the same as God? Is
ANYONE the same as God? Is every person
capable to create their own reality? If
so, where are all the wishes granted of desperate men and women whose hearts
yearn and ache for love, loved ones, power, money, and so forth? In fact, only God creates reality. There is only one reality we can know and all
else is conjecture. Isn’t it interesting
that those who dispose of God nevertheless look to scientific “theory” to
provide answers for those things which God has already explained to our senses? There is one God, and therefore the universe
works according to one perfectly mathematical plan, which has, over and over
again, been proved by science. There is
no multiplicity of gods working in or out of tandem. There is no chaos which magically comes
together to make one uniform mechanism we call reality. There is only order, sameness, and God.
Isaiah 40:12-17
The main issues with the world today

Islamism, a collectivism, threatens all.

Islamism, is also sweeping through the nations, forming new
Isaiah 40:1-11

Ecclesiastes states, “fear God and do His commandments.”

towards that technology, towards its evil use.
Drones? Good in the hands of good
men, our end in the hands of evil men, indiscriminate killing in the hands of
mediocre men. IPhones? Wonderful when controlled by the godly,
enslavement when the levers are pulled by the wicked. How do evil men gain control over good men?

concerning the overthrow of
Isaiah 35:7-10
More and more we see a rendering today of the Book of Isaiah. The past, present and future converging on us at once. Evil spreading over the whole world so that there is no place to go, nowhere to hide. But God has made a way for the righteous. There is a remnant, a ransomed, a people of God. And what is their common denominator? They believe in Law. They believe in directives. They believe in morality. They understand humility towards something bigger than themselves and their desires. They know the way of coveting, the root of all evil, and they shun it. They avoid and fight against communism. They fear to murder, and they fight against Islamic radicalism which permits indiscriminate killing of aliens (infidels). Now is the time to realign with the Lord God and His eternal Law, Torah.
Isaiah 35:3-6
Time to wake up! Open your eyes! The presidents of the world flout the law of God, the law of nature, and the law of the land. You are witnesses to it. It is up to you. The only solution is a return to Torah.
Isaiah 35:1-2
Why is communism in the Bible? Is it because collectivism a good system, benefiting the greater good economically and socially? In a word, hardly! Listen in today, on a winding pathway of truth and knowledge that will bring you into light, hopefully for good!
Isaiah 34:12-17
Demons. Satyrs and succubi. What are the connections between the unclean birds of the air, the beasts of desolation, the end of times, and demonic forces? How can a world ravaged by sin make a comeback? Only through God. Otherwise, a lazy and weak nation shall appoint a cruel lord over them. In the name of safety we shall permit the point of the government sword to direct us. Only Torah, the Law, is the answer.

MISSION STATEMENT
Welcome to the University of Truth. Here you will learn Truth. Not organized religion, not unsubstantiated doctrine, but unfiltered Truth as our Creator has given us. There is indeed Truth and it is easy to see if only you look. If you have ears to hear and eyes to see, we will teach you.
First, when we say "The Truth" we do not mean facts per se. Facts are necessary to prove certain things, but The Truth is well-known, and distinguishable from lies. The Truth is indeed based on facts, but for us The Truth is not a compilation of data and evidence which excludes every unseen thing. Indeed, the unseen must be regarded as The Truth (if not fact) as deliberately as that which is seen. Second, we do not say The Truth is a point of view. Truth must be universal and must apply to every person, regardless of gender, color, culture, religion, or intelligence level. The Truth is not an opinion, even if it includes certain leaps which must be considered. Third, The Truth is not a one-liner, and it isn't a one-dimensional thought, but it encompasses everything we know about science, religion, instinct, and the human experience.
This is The Truth we hope to bring to you.
Right
away people will have the wrong idea of our core and goals; and this is because
the doctrines of the world are well-known, and to categorize and pigeonhole The
Truth with such fritter is the easiest way to dismiss the unknown. You see, we are
explorers into uncharted territory. We are not connected to a particular
doctrine, or any related thing of which we are aware. In fact, we are not
really believers in “religion” at all. We are essentially pioneers and
scientists into the world of Tanakh/New Testament
crossover.
Our faith is in one God, the Creator of the universe (which we can prove), and
our light is in Torah. We see Jesus as something peculiarly different than
other traditionalists. Contrary to Constantinian
Christianity, we do not view Jesus as God, for there is only One God. Contrary
to Judaism, we do not view Jesus as a traitor or a myth. To us, it seems that
just about everyone has missed the boat.
Jesus Christ was extraordinary, and not altogether for miracles, or any
doctrine that has been placed upon him, but for prophecy, lawfulness, courage,
honor, and charisma. We believe He was resurrected, but not for the reasons you
may think. We subscribe not to a dogma of salvation per se, but of repentance
which is Christ's only message. Who will argue that repentance (teshuva) is necessary? Who will argue that lawfulness is
necessary? What human being will argue against that we should treat
each other as we would want to be treated?
It
will be flatly stated, by some doctrinists, that
Christ was a lawbreaker, or a heretic, or one who leads to idolatry.
These are not only incorrect assumptions, but are easily refuted by the words
of Gospel, and even underlying foundations of Talmud.
We believe that the Jews are a chosen people, with a singular relationship to
God, which has never been lost or rescinded. Christianity in no way
replaces Judaism, but Christ adds to the understanding of The Truth.
Concerning some specific things which we believe:
1. To be human means being animal, human, or some mixture of the two, a level of savagery. No human is or ever has been purely animal or purely human.
2. Free Will, the ability to reason and choose with long-range goals or goals beyond mere survival, is given only to human beings. This is both our gift and our curse.
3. There is a true, inflexible, and non-relative human morality. It includes the Golden Rule, and the concepts of dignity, honor, and compassion. This is easily proven.
4. Free Will is always present in a human, regardless of age or culture. It resides within, unlocked naturally by parental education and experience.
5. The Truth requires that human beings keep their behavior in some type of cage, as a way to guide, monitor, and preserve the humanity of humans.
6. Although every religion (Christian, Islam, Judaic, Buddhist, Hindu, Taoist, etc) reveals some type of cage, the Torah is the most excellent and moral of all cages. This is easily proven.
7. God exists and has formed this universe. Mankind is a special creation of God. God predates all things and is present in our daily lives. All of these things are easily proven by mathematics and science.
8. Man was not created to be just another animal. Man has a singular purpose, and reason for being. While God's ultimate purpose is not fully known, the mere fact of human existence is contrary to evolutionary themes. Man is by nature anti-evolutionary though profoundly progress-oriented.
9. God has endowed humans with inalienable rights, the greatest of which is the knowledge of good and evil (yin and yang, happiness and unhappiness). Other animals may feel such things, but only man can reflect on these emotions. This knowledge may cause more or less savagery, which either dilutes or enhances true morality.
10. The Torah provides for the ways of true morality and righteousness. Jesus Christ provides an extension of this which is unique. Jesus Christ's veracity is easily proven. His right to extrapolate on Torah Law, question Temple authority, and create alternative yet lawful lifestyles is rooted in the Tanakh itself, and is blessed by the prophets of old. His message is not new, but Christ's influence is new, affecting the entire world, historically and culturally, as no other.
11. Jesus Christ is not God, but is the greatest representative ever sent, literally God's Son (easily proven by Christ's own words).
12. God has multiple characteristics (easily shown in Torah, and proven in science), but "trinity" is not the proper term for this. God is not limited to three facets, but may have 4, or 100 facets. Why not infinity?
13. There is only one Savior and He is God (easily proven by Christ's own words). Christ's message is not of himself but of repentance, his only message.
14. Repentance follows trespass. Trespass is disobedience to limits. Limits must always be literal and not conjecture. The Torah is the only Law of God. All repentance therefore concerns trespasses against Torah commandments. Christ upholds this. All of these things are easily proven through Torah and Christ's own words.
15. Salvation is evident through Torah. Christian doctrine has not been truthful about this. Jesus Christ cannot pay for your sins, but only your repentance pays for your sins. Christ's sacrifice is a symbol for this and many other things. We do not believe that anyone is punished for not accepting "the name of Christ." We are punished for our personal and individual sins, and we are rewarded for our personal and individual obedience and repentance. But we believe Christ, of all persons, is able to bring someone to that point. All of these things are easily proven.
16. Christ was right. Christianity as we know it is wrong. You are not born a sinner, but a savage. You do not have original sin, but an animal nature side by side with a human nature. You cannot say a simple prayer and obtain eternal salvation- your prayer must be the start of a new you. God does not notice your denomination or religion, but your sincerity, diligence, faith, and obedience.
17. God does not excuse intentional savagery, even if he excuses (with repentance) unintentional savagery (purely animal behavior at various times, crimes of passion, accidental trespasses, and incidental circumstances).
18. Payment is made here and hereafter. Here, through repentance. Christ can help you, guide you, even mentor you, but cannot substitute for you. You alone must make restitution with God and other human beings. In the hereafter, the literal "hell" is reserved for only the worst- otherwise, we must say that God is not just.
19. There are way-stations in the hereafter. "Purgatory" (in whatever form) is God's justice. This follows well-known and hidden concepts in all religions, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and others.
20. Resurrection is true, well-known in Judaic Zohar (qaballah), Christian doctrine, Koran, and in all the Eastern religions.
21. There is a future for man beyond this world and time. The final resurrection (whether one only or multiple) will follow an extinction of this universe. There will be a paradise (a new Jerusalem) where suffering and pain ends, where free will has no consequences, and where the laws of nature are not destructive.
As the University of Truth moves forward, we will expand upon and prove every of these things to the best of our ability, and with the most honest of intentions.
Who are we?
1. We are not humanists, atheists, agnostics, pagans, or satanists because we love God. However, we do love the mind and heart of many humanist viewpoints towards man's inhumanity to his fellow man (even if we disagree mostly with their political strategies).
2. We are not all Jews, but we love the Torah as God's only Law, so that we are Jews in spirit.
3. We are not
Christians per se because we do not embrace many of the doctrines which
identify a Christian one to another. Christianity has at the same time
accepted and rejected the Torah, causing conflict with the human nature of many
of its followers. Christ would not approve such doctrine. We love
Christ.
God has often spoken through prophets, judges, and kings. To say that Christ is
not equal or greater than some (or all) of these is simply prejudicial. If the
Jews accepted Christ (not as Saviour or Messiah, but
for what He really is), the Christian religion would either crumble, or else
they would persecute the Jews to no end for accepting this part of The Truth.
But history, rabbinic judgment, and peer pressure preclude the Truth from ever
being discerned by but a small handful of radical "biblical astronauts",
such as ourselves.
4. We are not Islam, and we reject Islamic doctrine, but we love the passion of Islam, and wish it were used for humanity and not savagery.
5. We are not Buddhists, but we love their peace.
6. We are not Hindu, and reject their caste system, but we love their eye on the prize.
7. We do not claim to be a new religion, and we are not a synthesis of religions. We are not new age, or ecumenical, or universalistic. We believe that every human being knows The Truth, but that doctrines have carried humanity far from it.
We follow The Truth. We follow the Torah. We follow Christ. We follow humanity over savagery. Religion has a bad habit of making The Truth fit to doctrine instead of vice versa.
We question all doctrine, and reject it when it chafes against The Truth. We question doctrine, whether Jewish, Christian, Islamic, or any other. We argue points of Law, and question at times the validity of the Sages. We scoff at tenets which are blown apart by reading Torah or Christ.
The first doctrine which we explode is that Christ and the Torah are at odds with each other. This is incorrect in its assumption, and wrong in its implementation. One has only to read Christ's words to see that he never, NEVER, disagrees with Torah. His yoke is "lighter" means that he doesn't lay extra burdens- but the burden of Torah is still there. Christ never ate unapproved food, led his followers away from God or Torah, nor did any other thing of which He is continually accused. This does not make Christ a perfect sacrifice, but a perfect example. He is not "just a man." Nor a myth, else why try to continually crucify a myth? Jews do not give Christ enough credit, and Christians give Christ too much credit. One has only to read Matthew 23:3 to show the former, and Matthew 5:19 (in or out of context) to prove the latter.
These
things we will show at length soon enough, but for now we wish only to set a
pace. We do not live in any doctrine that you've ever heard before.
We understand that Christianity paints you a very different picture of Jesus
Christ, and that's too bad.
So
how is it that we have The Truth, but none others do? We will only answer, how
should we know why we were chosen to know these things? Meanwhile, as we
progress in our spirituality, Christians and Jews alike will cluck at our ways,
astounded that we should believe in Christ as we do.
Others who have only a passing interest in such things may find the
introduction of Law and Christ as tiresome, but then we must ask: are you truly
seeking Truth, or only your own desires?
The Truth must be found where it resides.
