1. In Rev 22:14, it is those who keep the commandments of God who have access to the tree of life and may enter the gates of the city of Jerusalem: "Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city."
2. Wisdom is used 51 times in the New Testament "sophia"; and 181 times in the Old Testament ("chokmah") – with the Proverbs being essentially the essence of wisdom. Divine wisdom is which is also identified to be the Spirit of God and the 10 Commandments. Example in the OT: "And thou shall speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office." (Ex 28:3; 31:3; I Kings 4:29).

In two passages Job 6:13; 12:16 wisdom is defined as "tuwshiyah" – intellectual understanding, working, skills; all other instances wisdom is "chokmah")

In the New Testament, Mat 13:24; Mark 6:2 everyone marveled at Jesus Christ’s wisdom ("sophia"); In one case Luke 1:17, as in Job, wisdom is also viewed as "phronesis" (intellectual skills, insight, prudence).

3. Righteousness - Luke 1:6ff
4. Development towards self-perfection (Col 4:10).
5. The spiritual application of these commandments are at the foundations of the Kingdom of God (Mat 5:19)

Commandments can also be issued by men (Mat. 15:9; Mark 7:7 – "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments ["entalma"] of men." (Col 2:22). The Greek term "entalma" is used to designate the "commandments of men" - these are the injunctions, religious precept, and commands. In Titus I:14 "Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments ["entole"] of men, that turn from the truth." Here, we have "commandments of men" that are imitations and distortions of the word of God. Mat 15:3ff "But he answered and said unto them, why do ye also transgress the commandment ["entole"] of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that curses father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou might be profited by me; And honor not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment ["entole"] of God of none effect by your tradition. Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draws nigh unto me with their mouth, and honors me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments ["enthalma"] of men."

"Precepts" ("entole" Gk)– same as prescription, injunction, ‘commandments’. In Mark 10:5-9 we find that "Moses" adds a "divorce" amendment – "And Jesus answered and said unto them, for the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." In Heb 9:19 the precepts were ordinances of the blood sacrifices.

The Old Testament Law (which includes ordinances, rituals, and regulations) has primarily been understood as a supervisory legal system, and a Constitution of the State, while in the New Testament Jesus Christ adds the executive understanding of Law/Commandments. For example: In Mat 23:23 Jesus Christ identifies that specific executive area of the Law/Commandments that the Pharisees neglect: "[you]…have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone."

1. Grace "charis‘’ must be understood within the content of God’s overall plan of salvation (Eph 1:4ff) ("According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace"), through the covenant Abraham – his "seed" (singular, Savior Jesus Christ) (Gen 22:17-18).
2. In the Old Testament, the presence of God among men "Emmanuel" (Mat 1:23) and His salvation/grace "mercy seat" with the shedding of blood were present as a type with the Israelites in the form of the Tabernacle (Ex 25ff, Lev 1, 3ff; Num 10:11 "Tabernacle of Testimony") in the wilderness and Solomon’s Temple (I King 1:39ff). The Tabernacle was the center of the congregation ("Church" of the Israelites).

1. Luke 1:30 shows that Mary has found full of grace / favor from God to conceive the Savior.
2. Luke 2:20, 51 shows that Jesus Christ while he was growing up as a boy already had received God’s "grace/favor" and wisdom. Grace is also found in Jesus Christ’s words "gracious words" (Luke 4:22).
3. In Luke 6:32-34, grace "charis" is translated into English as "thanks." In John 1:14 Jesus Christ had been bestowed "grace" "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
4. In the Acts of the Apostles, people have found "favor" ("charis") – "Praising God, and having favor with all the people."And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." Acts 2:47.
5. Joseph in Egypt also had attained "favor/grace" ("charis") (Acts 7:10.); and so did Solomon (Acts 7:46), and Barnabas (Acts 11:23)
6. The church was full of the "grace" of God (Acts 13:43).
7. The term "grace" is translated as "pleasure" in Acts 24:27 "But after two years Porcius Festus came into Felix' room: and Felix, willing to show the Jews a pleasure ["charis"], left Paul bound."

The term ‘grace’ is not a magic code word as Denominational Christians make it out to be. It simply means that God grants His favor.

Faith and Grace

In Rom 4:15 Paul connects grace, faith, law, the promises to Abraham and his Israel children. Here faith plays a central role: "Therefore it is of faith [Gk "pistis" – used 244 times in 228 verses means: consistency of profession, assurance, belief, fidelity], that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all."

This central role of faith is something that the Pharisees had omitted (Mat 23:23). Faith, however, is not equivalent to forceful wishful thinking, but as it is defined in the book of Hebrews 11:1ff, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Faith is three- directional – it is oriented towards the past, present and future and is concrete and verifiable (substance, evidence of things not seen). Therefore, what is the substance and the evidence of faith?

1. We trace the protagonists and prototypes of faith and their actions through the Patriarchal lineage from the dawn of history (Genesis 2; see Hebrews 11). These are not fictitious characters whose actions have little or "personal" meaning. They are instead icons and pivotal points in the history of mankind. The Patriarchs and the Prophets lead and beat a path towards the Kingdom of God.
2. Man and his instruments have never seen Creation – the origins of the universe. Creation instead can be deduced from the current evidence of geology, fossils, anthropology, statistics, structures, thermodynamics, and through Divine revelation (Christian Bible). This evidence is then modeled and is used to forecast data, conditions, processes that happened in the past or will happen in the future – the hypothesis and hypothesis of the hypothesis.
3. Geometric natural law (with the Ten Commandments as its subgroup) – is used to test the consistency of the effects "blessings and curses" (Deut 27-28)
4. Documented repetitive works of power (miracles, unusual, yet forecasted events) by multiple witnesses (Mat 8:26; 14:31; 17:20; 21:21 Mat 9:22)
5. Weather patters (Mat 6:30) that forecast conditions, or prophecies – e.g., Jesus Christ’s first and second advents.
6. Management and leadership principles and conditions in both the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Babylon (Math 8:9-10). In Mat 23:23 Jesus Christ identifies areas of the Law/Commandments that the Pharisees neglected: "[you]…have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone." The Pharisees not only missed the mark by neglecting and omitting the weightier matters of the Law – mercy and faith, but they also were using the wrong texts and principles of interpretation (as the Higher Critics did/do), being influenced by the works of Babylon – "traditions of the elders" – the Talmud.

From the beginning, the Christian Bible has identified and traced two self excluding kingdoms:

1. From the perfect divine creation to alternatives sought by mankind’s soul – the Tree in the Garden of Eden
2. Through Abel and Cain
3. The righteous patriarchs and those who followed alternative life styles (Cain-ites) before the Flood, which led to an untenable situation where, except for Noah and the last Patriarchs, the world was wicked continuously - leading to self-destruction.
4. After the Flood, the multiplication of mankind showed the two tendencies again - leading to Mesopotamia, Egypt and Babylon, with an alternate righteous lineage from Noah, Shem and the called-out Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel) who represented the covenants of the Kingdom of God.
5. The distinction between the custodians of the Kingdom of Babylon (Talmudism) and those of the Kingdom of God (Israel/Christianity) has been recorded in the Bible until the second return of Jesus Christ, who returns to again prevent the death of all flesh (Mat 24:22) and to establish His Kingdom of God as King of Kings.
6. The book of Daniel describes Babylon as the "great image" (Dan 2:31) – the Kingdom of Babylon, which stands in contrast to Jesus Christ’s Kingdom through the non-Talmudic Israel’s Christian Church throughout the remaining history.
7. The book of Revelation/Apocalypse clearly describes these two Kingdoms between Jesus Christ’s first and second coming.

What is the nature of these Kingdoms? It is within these Kingdom parameters that the management and scriptural purposes, objectives, missions and strategies can be understood. Today, these parameters are described in the Talmud (Babylon) and the OT/NT Christian Bible (Kingdom of God) – see Figure 4 below.

Figure 4 – The Kingdom of Babylon and the Kingdom of God

Continuation of Israel/Christian/OT-NT Bible (see above, right)

1. By 1915 B.C., Jacob’s (Israel) family multiplied to twelve sons (Gen 35:22ff), and one of them Joseph (who had become a Pharaoh of Egypt) extends that family to thirteen sons (Ephraim and Manasseh) (Gen 46:20) all to whom were granted Jacob’s specific blessings (Gen 49:1ff). Ephraim (the younger) was place ahead of Manasseh (Gen. 48:20) and later Ephraim’s name is associated with the whole of Israel, whereas Judah would carry the scepter of the kings of Israel and Judah (David, Solomon and to the King of Kings – Jesus Christ). It is under Joseph’s rule that the Children of Israel settle in Egypt (1876 B.C.) until the Exodus 400 years later.
2. In Egypt, prince Moses (from the tribe of Levi) (born in 1526 B.C.), with the help of the numerous miraculous events demonstrated by God, leads the multitudes of the children of Israel form Egypt (Exodus) toward the wilderness of Sinai, aiming them towards the Promised Land under Joshua (from 1446 – 1374 B.C.) The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob used Moses to provide a blueprint for a theocratic Kingdom of God (see the five books of Moses) – a Kingdom that could/should have existed until the coming of the Savior – Jesus Christ.
3. In the promised land, after having driven most of the heathen and perverse inhabitants out of the land, the Children of Israel settled and were ruled under the authority of the Judges (1375-1050 B.C.), then successively under the monarchies of king Saul (1050-1010 B.C.), David (1010-970 B.C.) and Solomon (970-930 B.C.), and then split into two Kingdoms (930 B.C.): a) Israel (northern 10 tribes), sometime known as Ephraim or Samara, with its capital of Samara; and b) Judah (House of Judah, half of the Levi and Benjamin) with its capital Jerusalem (1 King 12:2-2Kings 17; 2 Chronicles 10).
4. Through a series of historical ups and downs, where the kings either "heard and followed the word of the Lord", or rejected it falling under the influence of Baal worship and that of Babylon, the Kings of Israel and Judah had to contend with God’s messengers – the Old Testament Prophets. The Prophets pronounced: a) judgments (punishment of banishment from the land) for the people’s transgressions and "adultery"; b) some blessings; and also c) reveal key pieces of information about the future fortunes of the houses of Israel and Judah – their redemption, re-gathering, return to the true God, establishment of the Kingdom of God under the Savior their true God/Bridegroom. Some of the Prophets had been commissioned by God to:
1. The House of Israel, and the majority of Judahites (200,150 people, II Kings 18:3) which fell to the Assyrians in 722-713 B.C., were taken into exile into what is now the territory of eastern Turkey and northern Iran (beyond the Euphrates - II Kings 17:6; Esdras 13:39-45; Josephus "Antiquities"-Book XI, Chap V, Sec II; Hosea 12:2). The prophets to Israel were: Elijah (875-848 B.C.); Elisha (848-797 B.C.); Jonah (785-775 B.C.); Amos (760-750 B.C.); and Hosea (750-716 B.C.) after the fall and dispersion of Israel.

b) What remained of House of Judah (Jerusalem) - 4,600 people, fell to the Babylonians (King Nebuchadnezzar) in 586 B.C. (II Kings 24: 1; 10ff) and its Judahite population was taken into Babylonian exile in three stages: 1) 3,320 people; 2) 832; and 3) 745 people (Jer 52:28-30). The prophets to Judah were: Isaiah (740-681 B.C.); Jeremiah (626-585 B.C.); after the fall of Jerusalem, the prophets were: Obadiah (605-585 B.C.); Ezekiel (593-571 B.C.); and Daniel (805-530 B.C.) who prophesied to the House of Judah and Israel that were now in exile.

c) Two additional prophets: Zechariah (520-480 B.C.) and Malachi (440-430 B.C.) appear after more than 40,000 Judahite/Benjamenites (Ezra 4:1) return from their exile to their ancestral Judah/Jerusalem. They returned in three major groups under: Zerubbabel (538 B.C.)(Ezra 1), Ezra (458 B.C.)(Ezra 8) and Nehemiah (432 B.C.) (Ezra 2:2), under eight successive Kings of Persia: Cyrus (538-529 B.C.); Cambyses (529-521 B.C.); Darius I (521-485 B.C.); Xerxes (485-464 B.C.); Artaxerxes (464-423 B.C.); Darius II (423-404 B.C.), Artaxerxes II (404-358 B.C.) and Artaxerxes III (358-337 B.C.) The Persian Empire ended under Darius III in 331 B.C.

Note: Review of the term "Jewish:" a) the use of the term "Jew" "Jews" in the Old Testament from I Kings 16:6 onward; and b) the identity and the quantities of those who had returned to the old land of Judah and Israel.

1. It was mentioned in section 4.1.2 (above) that the Old Testament terms "yehuwdiy", "yehuwdah", and "yehuwdiyth" clearly refer to the Judahites, Judah, and Judahite – i.e. the descendant of the Hebrew Abraham, Isaac, and one of Jacob’s sons – Judah; "tribe/House of Judah," as it is either distinct from the House of Israel, or is part of the Kingdom of Israel. In the Old and New Testaments, Judah’s children, language, and geographical areas should not have been translated in English as "Jewish" - as if the term referred to potentially non-Judahite origins, or would have included all Judahites and Israelites under the term "Jewish" – a misconception that has existed for millennia.

Similarly, it should be noted, that the term "yehuwdiy" (Heb) did not appear in the Old Testament prior to II Kings 16:6. We find that the term "yehuwdiy" is translated into English in three forms: "Jew," "Judah" (Jer 43:9) or "Jehudi" (Jer 36:14). In books of I and II Maccabees the "Jews" are clearly Judahites who’s ancestors were brought out of captivity under Esra and Nehemiah. We further find, that the Judahites considered themselves being related to the Spartans/Greeks – i.e., who were the descendants of Judah’s son Zarah, who left Egypt before the Exodus and went to Greece (I Maccabees 12:7-23), and later (main group – 500 B.C.) went to Europe, Ireland, Wales and Scotland.

Also, the terms "Jew" or "Jewish" did not appear in the English literature, or in common English usage prior to the18^th century. When this English term was finally used, it was adopted as a corrupted version of St. Jerome’s vulgate Latin "Iudaeus." Neither had the word "Jew" appear in the KJV (1604-11) until the 18^th century.

The books of Ezra and Nehemiah, as well as Exodus, clearly distinguish between those Judahites who were able to document their racial lineage to the Tribe of Judah/Kingdom of Israel and those who couldn’t (Ezra 2:59). This suggests that although intermarriages between the Judahite/Israelites and the local populations during Ezra and Nehemaiah’s time were not permitted and when they occurred they were dissolved (Ezra 9-10; Nehemiah 13:1, 23); in later years, however, by the time of Jesus Christ’s first advent, we see evidence and the effects of intermarriages - including among the religious ruling groups: Pharisees, scribes, elders and lawyers. In the Roman province of Judea (not Judah) there was an amalgamation of peoples, who were all considered to be Judean "citizens." Intermarriages between Judahites and the surrounding populations brought Judah to adopt other religions at an earlier time, with the: Persians, Edomites (Antiquities 13:9,1:1), Amorites, Hittites, Assyrians (Ezek 23:12) and Chaldeans (Ezek. 16:3, 15, 23:14-18; 26, 45-46); Egyptians (Ezek 23: 3, 21) and many others (Ezek 23:23). This ideological and matrimonial blending lead to the adoption of lifestyles, mission priorities and abominable practices - the slaying and offering of their children to the idols (‘institutionalized abortion’)(Ezek 23:39). This situation explains why God’s prophets were slain, and why many of the Judahites retained Babylonian ideological roots – the "traditions of the elders" (Talmudism) (Mark 7:1).

2. Ezra records that there were more than 42,360 Judahites (Ezra 2:64) who returned from Persia (536 B.C.) to their old land Judah/Jerusalem - the former David’s Kingdom of Israel (Ezra 3:10). Statistically, the returning Judahites, Benjamenites and Levites were but a small number of the millions of Israelites and Judahites that were dispersed after they had been taken captive by the Assyrians - the ten northern tribes of Israel (722 B.C.), and by Babylon II - the three tribes of Judah: Judah, Levites and Benjamenites (586 B.C). These millions had not returned to the newly reconstituted Judah/Israel under Ezra and Nehemiah, although, we find that additional small groups of Judahites visited Jerusalem during the Holy Feast days (e.g., Pentecost – the Feast of First Fruits, Acts 2:5). These Judahites tourists, businessmen and pilgrims spoke languages of the countries where they resided - "And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. And they were all amazed and marveled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galileans? And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, what does this mean?"

Needless to say, that these "languages" experience varied from the experiences practiced by the contemporary Pentecostals /Charismatic. The Book of Acts describes a situation, which could only be explained by the manifestation of the Holy Spirit that must have activated the universal human language that remained dormant since the destruction of the Tower of Babel. Here, Peter spoke in his own Hebrew tongue, while the multinational groups understood his message in what they perceived as being their own languages, without the need for interpreters.

Similarly, the millions of Israelites and Judahites who had been taken into captivity (722 and 586 B.C respectively), and later were dispersed, have never had a chance to know or accept/reject Jesus Christ during His first advent. They heard of Jesus Christ for the first time when: a) Jesus Christ’s Apostles came: "But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give." (Mat 10:6-8), and b) the fulfillment of God’s restitution and salvation of their nations as prophesied by their OT Prophets. None of these Israelites and Judahites could have ever been considered as being "Jews" of the "Diaspora" (which is usually considered by the Jews as occurring after the fall of Jerusalem under Emperor Titus (70 AD); and not the one that occurred 600-700 years earlier.]

7. Prophets Forecasting Redemption and Re-gathering of Israel and Judah, as Sons of God

The name "Israel" (IS-RA-EL) means, "Ruling with God" (Gen 32:28). So Israel means: subjected to, or serves the Eternal Lord God. Since Israel went into idolatry and worshipped other gods, the name was inappropriate. God, therefore, sent the Israel people among the nations where they lost their name and became identified as "not a people" – predicted in Deuteronomy 32:21 "They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation." And then reiterated by the Prophets: Isaiah 7:8 "For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people." Isa 8:19 "And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?"

In the New Testament these not a people (Israel) have received Divine mercy and have been called Christians: I Peter 2:10 "Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy."

The Old and New Testament agree on all these points. The full meaning of this event is:

Israel Redeemed

1) Ezekiel 16:60-62: In spite of Israel’s transgressions, the Lord will deal with Israel as it deserves, yet God will remember the covenant He made with Israel, and will re-establish an everlasting covenant with Israel and they will know who is their Lord. The Lord will make atonement for Israel, and Israel will repent in humility (Hosea 5:15 –"I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early. God will depart, and Israel will remember and earnestly seek Him." In the book of Revelation Israel will be sealed as servants of God (Rev 7:3-8; 14:1-5) and reign with Him (Rev 20:6); "Reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end") Luke 1:32, 33, Isa 9:6-7; II Tim 2:12).

As we have seen in the term covenant is used 286 times in the OT as "beriyth" Hebrew (first used in Gen 6:18 with Noah), meaning - compact (because made by passing between pieces of flesh): confederacy, covenant, and league. While the Greek term in the New Testament " – [Gk "diatheke" is used 33 times in 30 verses to designate: a) testament (Mat 26:28; Mark 14:24; Luke 22:20; I Cor 11:25; 2 Cor 3:6, 14; Heb 7:22; 9:15-19; Rev 11:19), also to mean: b) contract, c) disposition, d) covenant (Luke 1:72; Acts 3:25; Rom 9:4; 11:27; Gal 3:15, 17; 4:24; Eph 2:12; Heb 8:6ff; 10:16ff); e) testimonies], and f) the testament – Gk "diatheke" is same as "covenant." The Covenant has specific features.

1. The Old Covenant was: – I) related to, and contained the Law, delivered by Moses (Ex 24:3; 23:20-33); ii) written in stone – emphasis of permanence and eternity; iii) concluded exclusively between the Eternal Lord God and Israel (Heb 8:8-10); iv) conditional – both parties had to keep the terms and conditions (Ex 19:8ff); v) a marriage contract – love, responsibility, progeny, protection, benefits, priority/value (Ex 19:8ff); vi) contained religious ordinances (Heb 9: 1-10).
2. The New Covenant was: I) related to love which is the fulfillment of the law (Rom 13:8-10); ii) related to the Chief Priest (Jesus Christ) after the order of Melchizedek (Heb 5; 8; 9: 11ff; 10) and not after the Levitical/Aaronic priesthood; iii) initiated during the Lord’s supper and will be concluded when the Bridegroom returns (Mat 26:26ff; Mark 14:22ff; Luke 22: 14ff; Mat 25); thus it is also a, iv) marriage contract (Mat 25); v) offered through God as a free favor/grace; (vi) it is a permanent, everlasting and irrevocable covenant with the righteous – it will be in their minds, hearts (Rom 11:25; 12; Heb 10); and vii) with the Israelite Christians and will be extended to all within the Kingdom of God (Rom 11- see below for details).

In spite of Israel’s eventual repentance, Israel and the Eternal Lord God had been in a divorced condition (Jer 3:8), and neither could re-marry as long as one of the parties is alive. One of the parties must die before the other could marry (Deut 24:4). Jesus Christ (the Eternal Lord God), Creator of the Universe, came in human flesh, to die so that in the resurrected condition and as the King of Kings, Bridegroom, He would be able to remarry the redeemed Israel the Bride (establish the new covenant) (Mat 26:26-29 – "And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.) – Jesus Christ - the Bridegroom, did not drink the "blood of the covenant" until He first shed it, and until His return (Mat 25:10 "And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.")

Ezek 16 is powerful with implications. Jesus Christ’s crucifixion, death and resurrection occurred for the purpose of fulfilling the new covenant, and to address other reasons:

1. Edenic sin, introduced death, misaligned man and creation with God’s perfection – thus the requirement for an atonement
2. To allow Christ to remarry Israel (see above).
3. In God’s perfect creation, someone had to pay for sin (transgression of the law), and since man was mortal (permeated with death), only another perfect and innocent creature would fulfill the requirements in order to remove guilt and the penalty.
4. Salvation would remove the veil (sin, guilt, death) that stood between what man was designed to become with the perfect God (Atonement) (Mat. 27:51 "And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom, and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent, and the graves were opened, and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many." (Gen 26:31-33; 2 Chr 3:14; Ps 18:7;Heb 9:12)
5. Jesus Christ defeated death – the last obstacle to perfection – Rev 20:14-15.
6. Jesus Christ qualified as the Judge (Heb 4:15 –"which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.)"

The single underlying theme between the Old and New Testament is the Covenant - Old Covenant, which was established between the Eternal Lord God and Adam, Noah, Abraham, Israel, and the New Covenant – established between Jesus Christ and His Israel Church. It is upon, and around the issue of the Covenant that the Biblical drama unfolds, since it is the core of Jesus Christ’s salvation, redemption plan of not only Israel, but after Israel’s redemption also that of all humankind, and living creatures and all of Creation (Rom 8:22) – all that had been placed under Adam’s management – all that he named - "he called" - assigned meaning, a post, and authority. This was under an agreement (covenant) with the Eternal Lord God (Gen 2:16ff; 19-20; 23, 24) and also the temporary limitations to Adam’s power after sin – Gen 3:14ff – nature was cursed in 17-18; and received a new job description in v.19.

To better understand the Covenant terms and conditions, an "allegory of the Butterfly" should help understand the implications of the Covenant with Israel:

The Monarch Butterfly and its parallels with Mankind’s Resurrection and Mission.

There are many creatures that metamorphose from one form into another, but the Monarch Butterfly is unique in several ways. The 0.036 –0.046 inch Monarch Butterfly egg, reveals, under 50 power magnification, a cathedral-like construction of vertical, arched, crystalline ridges that are tied together by about 500 elliptical, strengthened-crystalline chain links. The egg has a ventilating hole at the top of the egg, which is also designed to admit the male sperm. The egg is glued to the bottom of a milkweed leaf, near running water, by the female butterfly. She ensures that the leaf is free of parasites, and that the leaf will chemically sustain water and nutrients.

Within three to six days after fertilization, the green blooded, black headed, three eyed and small hairy caterpillar, with its genetic code to become a caterpillar, cocoon and a Monarch Butterfly, is born (0.08 inches) and begins to eat the leaves. Three days later the caterpillar undergoes the first of five moltings by removing its skin along with its three eyes. The skin hardens. Twenty days later, the larva weighs 1.5 trams, 2700 times its original weight and molts one final time, throwing away its skin, head capsule, its six front and eight pro legs. It is now located in the pupa/chrysalis, without sight and in total helplessness. After eight days of several other incredible changes, it emerges as a beautiful butterfly in full glory.

The changes are analogous to those in man. The microscopically engineered egg, the genetic code, the delicate requirements for survival, the stages of development through several "moltings", until we are rendered helpless - in the pupa/chrysalis stage - old age and death. But no one has, until Jesus Christ emerged from this stage - even though our genetic code is designed for our resurrection and spiritual "butterfly" condition (Rom 8:18ff) actually achieved at the resurrected stage. In order to ensure that we would achieve the resurrected ("butterfly") stage, the Eternal Lord God (who created the universe), was conceive supernaturally within a human egg, was born as Jesus Christ, grew up, provided supernatural services: healings, raised the dead, and re-activated those qualities that lead to immortality as we were originally designed in Eden before the fall.

Without Jesus Christ, mankind would continue to live within the economics of a caterpillar – however, now getting entangled in the various molting stages since the molting genetics aimed towards the resurrection (butterfly stage) that was not achievable until Christ’s resurrection. The economics and world of the human "caterpillar" stages would get attached to the features of the multiple eyes (vision, imagination), legs (the ‘walk of life’ - physical, professional, social/political and business dexterity), the taste of the milkweed leaf (taste, passions, comfort zone, security) (Rom.1:18ff, 3:9ff, 8:1ff; 2 Cor 2:1ff; Col.3).

Some authorities have mastered the science, resources and arts to manage and maintain humankind at this supervisory level (Kingdom of Babylon). But the Eternal Lord God has made a covenant with Israel to establish, promote and manage at the executive levels – establishing the Kingdom of God. He gave Israel the laws, Commandments, the Prophets to guide them in maintaining the Kingdom until Christ came the first time, and today the Israel Church has been granted the faith mission of the Kingdom of God (2 Cor. 3). With this the Kingdom Christians present, until Christ returns, the Kingdom as evidence and an alternative to the Kingdom of Babylon. An example of a practical evidence of the Kingdom of God is the Christian foundations of the United States of America. Genetically, mankind - the genealogy of the righteous and saints - has been designed to become the resurrected/changed spiritual and immortal sons/daughters of Jesus Christ (King of Kings) (Rom 8:14ff; I Cor 15:36ff.). We now know that all of creation and the angels of heaven are awaiting man’s salvation, resurrection and change as "sons of God" - "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.." (Rom 8:18-22)

2) Ezekiel 20:39-44: The Lord will again accept the exiled Israel, and the entire house of Israel will serve Him, when He will bring them out from the nations and gather them from the countries where they have been scattered (see also Ezk34; 36, 37; 39:21ff; Isa. 61/Luke 4:18 - The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.), and God will show himself holy before all nations. Then the Israelites will know that the Eternal Lord God is the true God, when He brings them back to the Promised Land. Isaiah 49:6 – mentions that God will raise up Jacob, restore the remnant of Israel and "will make you a light to the nations that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth."

1. The Assyrians captured and deported Israel in two military campaigns: I) In 732 B.C., Pekah, Tiglathpileser, King of Assyria, invaded the northern tribes of Israel - Galilee and Gilead (II Kings 15:29; I Chronicles 5:26 - "he carried them away, even the Rueubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor; and Hara, and to the river of Gozan (on the river Habur);" and 2) eleven years later in 721 B.C., King Shalmaneser and his successor King Sargon II (see his Annals – K.1681) had captured "the land of the house of Omri (Khumri)" named after the renowned King Omri of Israel (I Kings 16:28). And placed the captives in northern Media, close to other Israelites recorded by Assyrians as being Gamir/Gimira/Gimirra – later the "G" was softened to "k" "kh" – Khumri or Kelts (Celts). See also the inscription on the Assyrian Black Obelisk which records details of "the tribute of Jehu, son of Khumri." This second capture and deportation is described in the Bible II Kings 17:5-6 "the king od Assyria came up throughout all the land and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years. In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes" – a location beyond the Euphrates River (2 Esdras 13:40-45)(now eastern Turkey and northern Iran).

b. After the Babylonians took over the Assyrians, the displaced Israelites and a vast majority of Judahites began to move, over the following 1000 years, in two directions: west – towards Greece, through the Mediterranean sea to Iberia (Spain), to the Isles of the North (Britain, Ireland and Scotland) (Isa 49:1-3; 66:19;Jer 31:10). Within six hundred years they were spread throughout the Roman Empire; and moved north, through the upper Euphrates gorge (2 Esdras 13:43) and through the Caucuses mountains (thus the term Caucasians) into territories that later became known as southern Russia and the Ukraine - west of the Caspian Sea and north of the Black Sea (600 B.C.). The Greeks tracked the movements of these northern Israelites and called them Scythians.

1. Due to the westward movement of the various Asiatic populations from the east( Huns), the Scythians (Israelites) began to move westward over the Danube into Europe (third century AD), and became known as Ostrogoths, Goths, Visigoths, and in western Europe, having met their Israelite brothers who moved westward across the Mediterranean and north, now becoming known as the Gauls, Franks, Jutes, Saxons, Angles, Danites, forming the British, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred people – (see Gibbon’s "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire;" Sharon Turner’s "History of the Anglo-Saxons;" and Venerable Bede, "The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle;." See also Bruce Hannay’s two hundred authorities and Bibliography on this topic.)

For a thousand years, the Scandinavian Vikings navigated throughout Western Europe, to Iceland, the New World, and later passed through their original Scythian territory (which was now occupied by the Khazars, Pichinegs, Eastern Slavs and other people) when they traded with the Byzantine Empire via the Russian rivers Dnepr, Volga. During this passage through Slavic territories, the Slavs asked these Scandinavian Vikings to organize them into a central State, which became known as Rus’ around the capital city of Kiev (tenth century AD) – later Rus’ was changed to Russia.

4. Needless to say, the Roman Empire provided the roads, safe access, and settlement of the moving of the non-Jewish millions of Israelite and Judahite populations. This is how Christianity was able to be spread so successfully to all parts of the Empire where the Israelites resided – to Europe, all the way to the Britain, Ireland and Scotland, and in the Middle East until the Moslem invasions. Christianity found fertile ground among the Celts into the Middle Ages, the Scythians (I Col 3:11); Druids, and Germanic/ Scandinavian people. The Christian outreach and mission among these peoples/nations who formerly were known as Israelites and Judahites. There are records and traditions that trace Paul’s route to Spain and Britain (see R.W. Morgan, "St Paul in Britain," Artisan Publishers), while Mary (the mother of Jesus Christ) and Lazarus in Southern Gaul/France. In Romans 16:13ff, Paul sends his greetings to British captives in Rome – Rufus who was his half-brother, by the same mother. Linus, the first Bishop of Rome, was of British descent. Paul was in excellent relations with King Caradoc (Caractacus), Gladys (Claudia) and Pudens her husband – all who had been Britons living in Rome (see Paul greetings through Timothy 4:21).

Having traced and tracked the original Israelites through the Middle East, Scythia (southern Russia)- 600 B.C.- 200 A.D.; throughout the Roman Empire – Spain, southern Gaul, and Britain, we get a much better view of Jesus Christ’s mission and commission to the Apostles and lost sheet of the tribes of Israel in Europe and Britain.

	Mat 2:6 – "And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel." (see also Micah 5:2)
	Mat 8:8ff the centurion was an Israelite.
	Mat 10:8ff "But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and cast out devils, freely ye have received, freely give. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. And when ye come into an house, salute it. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city."
	Mat 15:24 "But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel." This is an event that occurred later, after that of Mat 10:8. In Mat 15:24, Jesus Christ made a mission statement.
	Mat 10:23 "But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come."
	Jesus Christ’s miracles were primarily made to help others identify Him as a representative of the OT God of Israel – not the god of the religious authorities – Mat 15:31 "Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel."
	Jesus Christ clearly identifies the future existence and executive roles of the apostles and their authority over the twelve tribes of Israel – Mat 19:28 "And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
	Jesus Christ was valued by the children of Israel, Mat 27:9 "Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value"
	The Talmudists, who saw the inscription on Jesus Christ’s cross "THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JUDEANS" (Mat 27:37) still recognized that Jesus Christ was connected with the kingship of Israel – Mat 27:42 "He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God." (see also Mark 15:32). Similarly, Nathaniel recognized the King of Israel - "Nathaniel answered and said to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel." (John 1:49). People greeted the King of Israel (John 12:13).
	Jesus Christ reminds Israel about the essence of God’s Commandments, which they have downgraded, by, at best, starting with the second commandment (idolatry): "And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:29-31; Deut 6:4-5).
	John was baptizing on the river Jordan, and "And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God." (Luke 1:16); John knew that Jesus Christ was to manifest Himself to Israel "…he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water."(John 1:31)
	In Luke 2:30-32 Simeon identifies Jesus Christ’s mission: "For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; a light to lighten the Gentiles (nations), and the glory of thy people Israel." And in verse 34: "And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against."
	People believed, after Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection that Jesus Christ came to specifically redeem Israel: "But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel:" Luke 24:21.
	Just before Jesus Christ’s ascension, the last question the Apostles asked Jesus Christ was "When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?" (Acts 1:6).
	In Acts 2:41; Peter, on the day of Pentecost, is speaking to the Judahites of the nation of Israel – those who have crucified the Christ and many of them repented – 3000 people (later this number increased to 5000 - Acts 4:4)
	. But at the same time in Acts 4:1ff we see that the religious leaders instead of repenting continued with the persecution of the followers of Christ.
	The Apostle Paul went throughout the Roman Empire and preached to the Israelites (nations) the resurrection and salvation of Jesus Christ as it was ordained through the Covenant. "Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience. The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it." (Acts 13:16-17; 24; 10:1; Rom 11:1ff – God has not cast away the dispersed Israel: "God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture said of Elias? how he makes intercession to God against Israel, saying, Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and dug down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. But what said the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace."
	Paul distinguishes between those who are of Israel and those who aren’t – impersonators "Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called." Rom 9:6ff
	Only a remnant of the righteous Israelites will be saved in spite of the Israelite millions as a population - "Esaias [Isaiah] also cried concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed (Jesus Christ), we had been as Sodom, and been made like unto Gomorrah." Rom 9:27ff. God would seek them out around the world (Luke 15:4ff search for one lost sheep). Jeremiah 31:7ff God brings the remnant Israel from the north; gathers them from the ends of the world, they shall return as an immense throng. Father of Israel – Ephraim, Jacob. Judah will be summoned to return home (24); Make a new covenant (v 31) – a) it will not be broken, but will last forever; b) its law will be written in the heart, not merely on tablets of stone; c) knowledge of God will be so gradually shown forth in the life of the people that it will no longer be necessary to put it into words of instruction. – Jesus Christ (Luke 22, 20; 1 Cor 11, 25).
	Paul writes the first epistle to the "strangers (wonders) scattered through Pontus" (60 AD, not 70 AD); and uses the 11th chapter in his book to the Romans to contrast and show a relationship among three categories of Israelites:

1. The remnant/elect (11:4) of the House of Judah within the Kingdom of Israel [of which Paul is a member (Rom 11:1; Phil 3:5)]
2. The blinded /hardened (11:7) of the House of Judah. These are those adhered to the "traditions of the elders" (Babylonian Talmud) – the "bad figs"; and
3. The "nations" (‘ethnos’-Gk)(11:11) of the dispersed tribes of Israel (‘broken branches’ – 11:17) (to whom Paul has been commissioned as an apostle (11:13). These dispersed Israel nations were to render the Judahites (Paul’s ‘my race’) "jealous" (11:11, 14). It should be remembered that it is only the (wild) olive broken branches that can be re-grafted into the olive tree (11:17) not some broken branches of some other tree(s). A hardening has come upon Israel in part, until the full number of the Israel nations ("Gentiles"??)(11:26) are saved – the time when the Savior/Deliverer would come to establish a new covenant with them and save all of them (11:27-29; Heb 8:8).
4. Eventually, God would join the House of Israel and that of Judah (Ezek 37 – two sticks joined)

The majority of Paul’s epistles are addressed to the "assemblies of the called out ones" in the cities of Greece.

	In Ephesians 2:1-14 Paul reminds the Israelites that being contaminated by ways of the world, they were dead in their sins, desire of the flesh and impulses becoming children of wrath, but God brought us to life through Christ (the capstone – 1:20) by His favor/grace not because anyone else did anything that would achieve this salvation result.
	With a new priest after the order of Melchizedek (Heb 8:1ff) a new Covenant is written for the House of Israel and the House of Judah. The first Covenant functioned within the scope of a separation between sinful man from God (the veil), while the second covenant with the atonement with God (tearing of the veil) through faith (Heb 11) – "For finding fault with them, he said, Behold, the days come, said the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, said the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, said the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: (Heb 8:8-13; Heb 9-10) God is now our Father (Heb 12) and Christians his sons and daughters.
	Galatians were Celts who invaded western and central Asia Minor (modern Turkey) in the third Century B.C. Galatians 6:16 addresses the epistle to Israel of God. "And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God." Galatians were the Benjamenites.
	The Book of James is addressed to the twelve tribes in the dispersion – "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, [diaspora - Gk] greeting." (James 1:1) - this is in 60 A.D. not 70 A.D. See also Amos 9:9.
	John writes, "Will he (Christ) go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?" (John 7:35) Even the Pharisees were aware of the dispersed millions of Israelites.
	Peter’s first epistle is addressed to the "sojourners of the dispersion" who were scattered the Greek empire: in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. Homer the Greek historian refers to the Greeks as "Danos" – the tribe of Dan.
	Israel is identified again in the Book of Revelation in Chapter 2 where a John writes to the Israelites in the Church of Pergamos.(Rev 2:14). Then in Rev. 7:4 the new Israel tribes are numbered in prophetic completeness (see also Rev 14:1-5; – "And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel." Dan is omitted, Ephraim is not mentioned but Manasseh is, although both Ephraim and Manasseh are usually covered under Joseph (verse 8) – indicating that Manasseh will perhaps have a double portion. The key point is that "all the tribes of the children of Israel" (verse 4) had been sealed. Dan will have his portion in the kingdom (Ezek 48:1). See also that the holy city of Jerusalem that descended from God contained the names of the 12 tribes (Rev 21:10ff; see below).
	Rev 7:9 – a great multitude of martyred Israelites – millions from everywhere around the world stood before the throne, before the Lamb, clothed in white robes and palms in their hands (symbols of joy, victory and the resurrection – Rev 13:8; 20:12; Phil 4:3; Dan 12:1; Mat 10:32.
	The holy city of Jerusalem descending from God contains the names of the 12 tribes on it "great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:" (Rev 21:10ff)

Corrupt Shepherds and Antagonists

1. The key factor that precipitated the corruption of the Israelites is the shepherd of Israel. Ezekiel 34 shows that it is the corrupt shepherds of Israel who are responsible for turning the sheep from the Eternal Lord God (see also Jer. 50:6 – the shepherds misled Israel). God scattered the sheep throughout the nations and shepherded them Himself (Ez 34:10-11; 15) in order to rescue the lost sheep (v 12), from the false Babylonian shepherds. God planned to track and bring them back out of the dispersion, re-gather them from all the lands, pasture them in good grazing lands (mountains of Israel), and personally give them rest. God was also to heal Jerusalem (Jeremiah 33:6ff.) Jesus Christ called himself as being the "good Shepherd."

During the emerging Christianity, there is a long list of false prophets, teachers, pastors, the temptations and evil social influences. Besides the traditional adherents of the "traditions of the elders’ (Babylonian Talmudists) - the "bad figs" (Jer 24:8-10; II Kings 24:17-19, 25:7, 26) who were a permanent threat to Christianity throughout the Apostolic times to our modern times, through civil threat, intimidation, manipulation and infiltration, there were also variations of the same Babylonian cults that were a constant threat:

1. Magicians – Simon Magus (Acts 8:9ff), sorcerers (Acts 13:6-8), ‘oracular spirits’ (Acts 16; 16)
2. Corinthians allowed factionalism, licentiousness, incestuous ness, religious "prostitution", drunkenness, charismatic, marital controversies, nature of the resurrection, conduct of groups and permissiveness
3. Galatians allowed themselves to be swayed by Judaizers; and distinguishes between those of the world and those who are under the spirit: "Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vainglory, provoking one another, envying one another." (Gal 5:19-26).
4. Philippians were warned against false teachers – Judaizers
5. Colossians are placed on guard against those who may deceive them through specious arguments trying to captivate Church members, passing judgment on matters of food and drink, festival and new moon or Sabbaths (3:16). Rumors or letters that were allegedly written by Christ’s apostles regarding the immanent Day of the Lord disturbed the Thessalonians. Other deceivers promoted Gnosticism (New Age).
6. Timothy informed about Christian doctrines that deviate from the true path through verbal disputes and deviating truth about the resurrection (I Tim 6; II Tim 3)
7. James, who writes to the lost sheet of Israel "Twelve tribes scattered abroad", points to the necessity to overcome temptation, avoid being lured into sin, sin of partiality, presumption, the danger of an uncontrolled tongue, and problems of divisions among the members, and gives warning to the rich.
8. Peter condemns false teachers who introduce destructive heresies and deny Jesus Christ. These will follow their licentious ways. These, with their greed will exploit the church members through fabrications. Many of these deceivers are bold and arrogant and are not afraid to revile glorious beings (2 Peter 3:10). They delight in stains and defilements, adultery, follow Balaam, promising freedom but are really waterless springs.
9. John warns against deceivers who deny Jesus Christ’s human side, stating that Jesus Christ did not come in the flesh (anti-Christs) and spread heresy (2 John 1:7ff).
10. Jude as Paul (Romans 1-2) documents total human degradation – Jude reminds its members of the Flood, Sodom and Gomorrah. Church members should stay away from the path that leads to these ends.
11. John’s Book of Revelation describes the fundamental conflict between Babylon and the Kingdom of God. This Book addresses the issue of what constitutes true Christianity and its survival in a dying world.

The common denominator is that all of these Churches are considered to be the Churches of Jesus Christ ["I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, said the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty." (Rev 1:6-8)]. He is the Jesus Christ who is the Shepherd who leads the Churches by identifying the blessings, hazards and consequences. The Revelation Churches have grace, vulnerabilities and time to correct their ways in this existing world before He returns. A comparison of these Churches may reveal recognizable features of the existing Christian Churches – Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant. How do they survive, negotiate through, merge with or stand out as a light to the existing world? How many of the Christian Churches have had, or potentially will have their candlesticks removed? What are the features of the blessed Church today? What constitutes the true Christian Church?

The Church structure during John’s time (Roman Empire) was a loosely interdependent network - circuit of apostles, disciples who circulated letters; and locally, the Christian Church was under the direction of elders/pastors, deacons and bishops. The elders (‘presbuteros’ Gk) are defined as older, senior, member of celestial council, presbyter, who were similar to the earlier elders of the OT ‘zqen’ Hb. However, there was a significant spiritual orientation shift between the Christian/OT elders and those of the status quo elders – representatives of the Jerusalem Pharisaical religious authorities (Mat 15:2; 7: 3-5; 16:21; Martch 8:31; Mat 26:23; Mark 11:27; Luke 20:1; Mat 26:3; 26:47 mark 14:43; Luke 22:62; Mat 26:57-59; Mark 14:53; Luke 22:66; Mat 26:59; 27: 1-3; Mark 15:1; Mat 27:12, 20, 41, 28:13). The Christian elders, together with the apostles, functioned as decision makers, fathers (1Tim 5:1); blessed rulers (5:17); healers (James 5:14); and were also rulers over kingdoms sitting on thrones, wearing crowns of gold (Rev 4:4) – i.e., they held key positions in the Kingdom of God. The Christian Bishop ("episkope" Gk) – defined as inspection (for relief) superintendence, bishoprick, and visitation; and deacon roles were well defined (1 Tim 3:1-13; Titus 1:7-3; 2:1ff; 3:8).

1. Christian New Covenant (Heb 8)
2. The Septuagint Old Testament scriptures
3. Apostolic letters/epistles (most of which later became part of the New Testament)
4. Apostolic teachings/‘traditions’ ‘paradosis Gk’ (2 Thes 2:15; 3:6).

Note: there are harmful "traditions" which transgress the Commandments (Mat 15:3); and those taught by the apostles (verbal or written). During the first twenty years, the Church remembered what they had been taught by the apostles, disciples, pastors and teachers.

The reader must recognize the conditions/culture in which the early Christian Church existed, and from whom the converts came:

1. Imperial Roman Law
2. Militarism
3. Taxed commercialism
4. Social levels with aristocrats, senators, wealth families, middle class, slaves
5. Cultist temples – ethical and religious relativism, emperor worship; charismatic personalities.

Paul describes this society (Rom 1:18-32) - about the consequences of idolatry (violating the 1st Commandment, and promoting the 2^nd Commandment): Creation proves the existence of invisible attributes - an Eternal God, but they became vain in their reasoning, dulling their senses and allowing darkness to set it. With claims to superior insights (wisdom) they became irrational and contradictory (relativism) and exchange the immortal God for symbols of creation (likeness of an image of mortal man, birds, animals, snakes, e.g., products, market values, wealth). They then automatically revert to lusts, fixations, passions that lead to degradation. They exchange the truth of God for a lie and worship creation rather than the Creator of that creation. Inevitably, seeking higher fixes, they involved/degraded themselves to ever lower passions – unnatural relationships, homosexuality, pederasty, bestiality and other perversions from which there is no return. Since greed and self-centered gratification becomes the norm, they compromise on ethics, and degrade themselves in malice, envy, murder, rivalry, treachery and spite. Soap operas, gossips, scandalmongers, insolent, haughty, boastful, ingenious in their wickedness, rebellious towards parents – all these becomes a norm that they approve and encourage others. Once one places him/herself on this route, he/she negotiates away the platform upon which he/she may pass judgment upon any of the corruptions. For example an adulterer or fornicator cannot make himself more righteous than a homosexual, pederast, murderer. No doubt Paul also describes conditions under Babylonian supervision - our 21^st century. The 20^th century - World War I and II, the political and social revolutions, socialisms (masonry, Talmudism) – have been designed to remove Christendom from the political and social scenes, and replace Christendom with the pagan and slave-based Roman system – a full 180 degree turn.

Figure 5: Letters to the 7 Churches of the Book of Revelation /Apocalypse

The outcome of the Christian Church initiative is described in Matthew 24 and 25. The existing denominational/cultist nature of Christianity will lead to apostasy (Mat 24:24, 26, 28; Jer 14:14; 23: 21; John 5:43). Mat 25 shows that of the ten virgins who await the call of the Bridegroom, only half (50%) make it to the wedding feast. We find that the virgins (Isa 61:10; Mat 9:15; John 3:29; Rev 19:7; 21:2, 1 Thes 4:16-17; 5:6-7):

1) Are likened to the "Kingdom of Heaven"

1. Are pure and have not been compromised by the world
2. Proceed with knowledge, clear expectation and purpose to meet the Bridegroom
3. Five are wise and five are foolish. Matthew identifies the conditions of the "wise" - "Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does the, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock (Jesus Christ). And the rain descended and the floods came and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock. And everyone that hears these saying of mine, and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: and the rain descended and the floods came and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell; and great was the fall of it." (Mat 7:24-27)
4. The ten virgins take lamps with them (Rev 22:5) – a lamp is identified with: a) the light of God in the world – (Gen 15:17; I Sam 3:3; 2 Sam 22:29; b) oil is to be gathered to fuel the lamps in the Inner Court-Ex 27:20; c) identity, inheritance/son, anointment (I Kings 15:4; Ps 143:17); d) lamp is God’s word and a light to our path (Ps 119; 105 –"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path"; e) "… the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life" (Prov 6:23); f) the lamp of the wicket will be put out (Prov 13:9; 20:20). Isaiah 62:1ff notes God’s persistence: "I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burns." The virgins understood the word of God, followed His commandments, and were righteous, ready for salvation.
5. Half of the virgins take extra oil and half do not – expectation, the duration of the wait in the dark world. a) Oil is viewed as anointment (Gen 28:18; 35:18); b) "Oil for the light (lamp), spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,(Ex 25:6; 27:20; 35:14-15); c) bread was to be tempered with oil (Ex 29:2); d) "Then shall thou take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him." – this is the anointment of the priesthood, identification with holiness (Ex. 29:7, 21; 30:24-25; 30:31; 37; 39; 40; I Sam 10:1; 2 Sam 1:21; 2Kin 9:9); e) offerings to God must contain oil in them (Lev 2:1-2ff; Numbers); "Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows."(Heb 1:9); f) in case of sickness "Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:" (James 5:14); and g) oil is also used as a commodity (Rev 6:6; 18:13). See answer in #10 below.
6. Slumber and sleep while waiting for the delaying Bridegroom. (2 Peter 3:4-9)
7. A cry at mid point in the night announces the coming Bridegroom "Behold, the bridegroom comes, go out to meet him"(Mat 25:6). The Bridegroom had not yet arrived, but has been announced.
8. All the virgins hear the call, arise, and trim their lamps. Luke (12:34) writes "for where your treasure is, there also will your heart be. Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning; and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding: that when he comes and knocks, they may open unto him immediately – (see the letter to the Laodiceans Rev 3:20). Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the good man of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not."

10) Virgins that war foolish ask the wise ones: "Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out." (verse 8). Without a doubt the virgins’ oil (anointment) is to fuel their lamps - so that they would be able to persist in the Word of God, follow His commandments, perfect righteousness in faith towards salvation. The foolish virgins compromise on these, by believing in Divine Grace only without works (Commandments) see James 2:14-18: "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works." You believe that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But will you know, O vain man that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Do you see how faith wrought with his works, and works made faith perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which say, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." This suggests that half of the Christians will not make it to the wedding feast because of inaction – inability to apply the anointment – and shine with the evidence of the Kingdom of God. See also Mat 7:22-34

1. But the wise answer "Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves." This answer may suggest that the foolish virgins are involved and are blinded by their worldly initiatives – see the "Remarks" column in Figure 5 and also Figure 4 above.
2. And while the foolish go to buy, the bridegroom comes, and they that are ready go in with him to the marriage, and the door is shut. Luke 13:24-30 clarifies: "Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last."
3. Afterward come also the foolish virgins, saying, "Lord, Lord, open to us."
4. But the Lord answers and says, "Verily I say unto you, I know you not." (Mat 7:22-34)
5. Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour when the Son of man will come. (Mat 24:42; Mark 13:33; Rev 16:15)

1. Promote and justify an anti-Catholic position – a historical protestant/reformation inheritance
2. Cannibalize Catholic practices and form in order to define their own denominational focus, thus establishing factionalism within the scope of the myth, archetypes, temperamental dimensions (Mat 24:11; Titus 1:14).
3. Introduce a wider, even non-Christian ideologies and populations, under the umbrella of denominational Christianity (Mat 24:5)
4. Redefine, transfer and ascribe all Biblical blessings from the Covenant People (Abraham to the European ‘lost’ sheep of the House of Israel) to a "Talmudic" population and its global subordinate converts.
5. Replace the covenant mission of the "Kingdom of God" by a refocused "personal" existentialist salvation under a limited "grace" vs "law" dichotomy where "law and the commandments" (which are the central structure of geometric natural law and the Kingdom of God) - are being "done away". This ethical relativistic approach (algebraic existentialism) leads to lawlessness and dissolution of the family (Mat 24:12).
6. Promote or attempt to function within the un-constitutional rule of the "separation of the ‘Christian’ Church and State" – where it is assumed that the Atheistic/anti-Christian State and Judicial systems have the authority to define and enforce the limitations of Christian Church authority in a pluralistic society. This approach and interpretation reflects an Aristotelian/ algebraic foundation for policy, legislation and decision-making – i.e., pantheism (a religion).
7. Realign all Biblical prophesies with the Zionist mission, purpose and objectives – focusing key prophetic issues around the State of Israel ("New Khazaria"). The latest Protestant and Catholic plan is to align all Biblical prophesies for Jesus Christ’s first advent with the second one so as to sing in chorus with the Talmudists in their expectation for the advent of their own Messiah.
8. Both the Protestants and Catholics deliberate in depth on: the "Jewishess" of Jesus Christ, the Biblical cultures, history, scriptures and of Christianity itself – thus rendering Messianic Judaism into the latter-day pure Christianity. Judeo-Christianity is basically preaching ‘another (Talmudic) Jesus" - "For if he that cometh preaches another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted," (2 Cor 11:4).
9. Promotion of racial integration, balkanization of national populations and removal of international borders.
10. Promotion of questionable life-styles (serial divorces and re-marriages, same sex marriages and their adoptions, vile pornography, abortion) under the disguise of "repentance" and to avoid the libel of being "intolerant," allowing promiscuity and hypocrisy to permeate the Christian family, society, and the church up to its inner sanctum – "abomination of desolation" (Mat 24:15; Mark 13:24 – "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso reads, let him understand:)"
11. Identify, segregate and denounce (Mat 24:10) all non-Judeo-Christian elements of society as being cultist, neo-Nazi and racist.

Judas Iscariot’s personality and role in the New Testament is not a random entry. The NT doesn’t record when and under what conditions Judas had been included among Jesus Christ’s disciples. The first apostles were chosen and mentioned in Mat 4:10-22; Mark 1:14, 19; Luke 5 – two pairs of brothers Simon Peter and Andrew, and James and John. John 1:35-43 identifies Andrew and Philip as being John the Baptist’s disciples. Mat 9:9, Mark 2:13 and Luke 5:27 identify Matthew the tax collector; while John 6 lists Philip, Andrew and Peter. Judas Iscariot is mentioned last in the list of the twelve apostles who are being sent out to preach to the non-Talmudic lost sheep of Israel – Mat. 10:1; Mark 3:13 – 16:7 and Luke 6:12.

Throughout the gospels, until the actual Passover meal, Jesus Christ had predicted the betrayal (Mat 12:17; Luke 9; Luke 18: 32). And it is after Christ’s anointing with oil (Mat 26:6; Mark 14:5) that Judas decided to betray Jesus Christ to the "Talmudist" ruling high priests for 30 shekels of silver.

1. Judas, like all the other eleven apostles, has been a ‘Christian" – i.e., follower of Christ’s way.
2. As a member of the twelve apostles, Judas had been sent out to the lost sheep of Israel to preach that the kingdom of heaven had arrived (Mat 10)
3. He had seen most of Jesus Christ’s miracles, and had been given authority to "heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, drive out devils. To give these things as he received them without pay. He was not to take gold, silver, or copper money…"(Mat 10:7ff)
4. Judas heard Jesus Christ’s pronouncements against the hypocritical and serpentine priests, Pharisees, Sadducees, Sanhedrin, scribes and elders – their murderous ways against all the righteous throughout history (Mat 23).
5. In spite of Apostle Matthew’s proven financial expertise as a tax collector, it was Judas who took charge of the Corporate assets, budget and cash flow (John 13:29).
6. It is Judas’ name, which sheds some light on his character. He is known as Judas, the son of Simon, the man from Kerioth (John 6:70).

Kerioth city is identified in Joshua 15:25 as being one of the cities in Judah bordering Edom (Esau’s country). Later Jeremiah 48:24 and Amos 2:2 mention that the Moabites occupied Kerioth. Kerioth, a town of ‘Moab’, had been plundered. Moab had burned the bones of Edom’ and was defeated, and Kerioth suffers the curses which befall Moab (Jer 48). During Amos’ time Kerioth’s palaces were destroyed.

7. It is important to identify what role Esau (Edom) played throughout history, and in what way has his country, in the proximity of Kerioth, affected Judah’s ethical formation and contributed to Judas’ inclination towards finance and betrayal.

Genesis 25:27ff records that Esau came running from the fields exhausted and sold his birthright to his younger brother Jacob (Gen 25:33). This is a puzzling situation, which is clarified in the Book of Jasher. Esau, had just killed Nimrod, stole Nimrod’s ruler’s fleece, and was running away from Nimrod’s bodyguards. This fleece (Adam’s fleece stolen by the son of Ham from Noah) designated rulership and authority over the world – rule over the Earth’s human beings. Now that Esau had acquired this fleece, this designated the descendants of Esau/Edom (red) as today’s rulers and promoters of the Babylonian contract (kingdom of Babylon – New World Order, International Socialism). This is a usury-based reality. All reality is converted to finance and its derived influence. Note that Herod was also an Edomite.

These factors account for Judas’ inclination and objectives:

1: Judas was naturally attracted to Jesus Christ’s mission because he anticipated Jesus Christ’s messianic ‘worldwide’ operation in which he would possess an insider’s advantage.

2: Judas viewed reality through the financial prism (John 13:29). The dynamics of his thinking were: management accounting, budgets, minimization of liabilities and maximization of assets.

3: Now, Jesus Christ was being anointed (Mat 26) in preparation for death. Judas was prompted to betray Jesus Christ not so much by the extravagant expense of the oil (300 pence – Mark 14:5) because this expense, which made other disciples feel ‘indignant’ also (Mat 26:8; Mark 14:4) did not prompt them to betray Jesus Christ. Nor was it Judas’ concern for the poor (Mat 26:10ff). The key to Judas’ shift in loyalties laid in the sentence "For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her."(Mat 26:12-13.)

4: Judah’s narrow interpretation of ‘life’ and ‘legal activity’ made him succumb to human law. The ‘devil’ entered Judas, means that he (his soul/psyche) fell under the authority of human law, and he thus automatically recognized the authority of the human beings – the high priests (most of whom were direct descendants from Esau/Edom – their father had also been Abraham – but not through Abraham, Isaac and Jacob – they were the followers of the "traditions of the elders’ (Babylonian Talmud). These were the ‘chosen ones’ of the Babylonian contracts.

5: And so, Judas, missed Jesus Christ’s last supper during which the terms of the new covenant were instituted. Judas came with a large crowd which had swords and clubs (Mat 26:47). Judas quickly stated "Greetings, master!" and kissed Him. John 18:5-7 records that before the kiss, Judas with the others ‘went backward and fell to the ground’ when Jesus had answered them "Iam He" (i.e., "I AM" – Exodus 3:14).

6: After all legal recourses had been exhausted and Jesus Christ was finally condemned to death by the ruling priests (Talmudists), Judas felt sorry and attempted to return the thirty shekels of silver to the high priests and elders. Judas recognized that he had sinned having not only ‘betrayed innocent blood’ (Mat 27:3) but also "put a contract" on all of the apostles and disciples. He threw the money in the temple from where all the murderous connivance emanated, and hung himself.

7: Judas had come to realize that his world became abysmally empty. Jesus, His apostles and Judas were involved in doing only good, saw and did miracles, which he was never able to explain. There was genuine friendship, trust, hope, love, and dedication in Jesus’ group, which he found nowhere else. And now, he could see only a hypocritical and deadly Mafioso-type imitation of what represented God – the temple, priests, rituals, deception, envy, exploitation, fear, suspicion, sickness, death, hopelessness, infernal existence. These ‘[high priests’ of the Babylonian contract did not care whether the accused was guilty or innocent (Mat 27:4) – what was at stake, they saw, was the perpetuation of their unconditional power. Judas could not turn the clock back to those exceptional and unique days. Now he can’t look into Peter’s overeager, sincere and simple eyes, and admire John’s wide and deep devotion. Judas threw the 30 bloody pieces into the place from whence they came – the Temple of the self appointed human ‘gods’, and then hanged himself.

8: Jesus Christ identifies Judas Iscariot as being "the son of perdition" (John 17:12). The English word "perdition" is used 8 times in the NT (John 17:12; Phil 1:28; 2 th 2:3; 1 Tim 6:9 (the rich fall into…drowning destruction and perdition); Heb 10:P39; 2 Pet. 3:7; Rev 17:8, 11). The meaning of ‘perdition’ (Gk ‘apoleia’ - used 21 times: destruction (Acts 8:20; Rom 9:22; Mat 7:13); waste (26:8; Mark 14:4); let money perish (Acts 8:20); die (25:16); damnable heresies, destructive (2 Peter. 2:1); pernicious. The term "son of perdition" is used twice (John 17:12, referring to Judas) and 2 Thes. 2:3 – "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God". This is a description of the role of the Talmudists in society, government, education, intelligence, secret societies, and in the Judeo-Christian religion. The Talmudists expect the world to think of them as being the final authority on all issues (Talmud 62 volumes). They are the consultants, the intelligence and information centers, identifiers (accusers) of the enemy of the people. They are at the base of the ‘mystery of inequity’ (v7); wicked (Gr. Anomos – without law, unlawful, transgression v.9); accusers (v. 9); create strong delusions (Gk brino – condemned, avenged). These are the creatures that the Judeo-Christians accept as the ‘chosen people.’ They actually are a ‘chosen people’ – the custodians of the Babylonian contract.

C. Judas’ Christianity and the Judeo-Christians have the following similarities. Both:

1. Recognize the Edomite authorities and purposes in this World
2. Worship and fear Babylon’s ‘the chosen people.’
3. Recognize the quasi-aristotelians-talmudists, as the authority in the interpretation of the scriptures. Reverence for the human State authority and power ("We have to king but Caesar"). The Religious authorities, Judas and the Judeo-Christians place quasi-Roman/Babylonian law above the LORD God’s natural law (..no man can serve two masters, he will either love the one and hate the other..") When the true LORD God is not recognized nor trusted, it is the power of the State, which substitutes the vacuum – state pantheism. Under such circumstances, it is the State that is worshipped (prayed to, requested, petitioned) daily for setting things ‘right’. The three (Religious authorities, Judas and the Judeo-Christians) have the same ethic. Whether they are ultra liberal, conservative or flush center, they will claim adherence to that ethic and its authority. It is wide enough to accommodate anything imaginable – pluralism, cultism, world order, globalism, and all will comply with the rules and regulations. As the Book of Revelations demonstrates - Babylonian ethic stands in opposition to the Kingdom God ethic.
4. Respect the status quo, which is based on finance, administrative institutions, tax exemptions, privileges, ‘licensing’ (cultism), and pluralism under specific state authority.
5. Practice expert hypocrisy, exclusion, collusion, betrayal, denunciation and eventual persecution of those who live by and implement natural law: e.g., Christ, His apostles and Christian saints.

D. The Babylonian Priestly System

1. Passive - suggestive, where the authorities impose various ‘authorized’ rituals, rules, regulations and raise issues and questions of impropriety, offense, discrimination, superiority upon the population that fears of gaining disapproval/rejection from the ‘authorities’ (Mat 23:4ff).
2. Investigative control, where they bring group(s) of operatives and organizations to create conditions of entrapment (Mat 22:19ff; 26:69)
3. Corruptive control, where rewards, financial gain, security, guarantees, reciprocal benefit, choice positions, threats and forced persuasion direct the activities of individuals, groups, leaders or societies (Mat 28:12-14; Acts 25:2ff)
4. Misrepresentation of facts, discounting values, character assassination, confiscation and accusation (Acts 6:11-14; 24: 10; 25:7)
5. Coalitions and group control (Acts 6:11-12; 17:5; 25; 15-21)
6. Gag orders (Acts 5:28, 40)
7. Arrest (Acts 4; 5; 12)
8. Persecution (Acts 8:3)
9. Prosecution and legal action (Acts 6:15)
10. Murder incorporated (John 19; 15f: Acts 5:30; 23: 12-15)

All these activities proceed from the high priests’ seat (e.g., Mat 26:3ff). Jesus Christ identifies the Talmudists as "the wicked and unfaithful people" and ‘hypocrites.’(Mat 23).

E. The Eternal Lord God’s Plan

If the "Jews" (Talmudists) were the ‘chosen people’ of the Bible, as the Judeo-Christians are convinced they are, then the Talmudists would have been able to, during the past 2000 years produced works that would equal the quality of literary works that are represented in the Old Testament books. The features and qualities of the Old Testament and New Testament scriptures are unique in all of the History of documentation.

1. There is a similar theme and purpose throughout every book of the Bible – the covenant, the characters, meaning, message and symbolism.
2. Geometric natural law at the foundation of all books – contracts, Covenants, Commandments, structure within the principles of the Kingdom of God
3. King David and Solomon have studied the Divine Commandments as part of their program to enhance and develop their skills in kingly and executive management, wisdom, decision making and for their understanding of the true Eternal Lord God will/direction and the nature of the Kingdom of God.
4. The Bible has also clearly defined the dynamics and foundations of the Kingdom of Babylon as a lesson that helps us to identify Babylon’s crafts and to avoid falling into its mythological traps (drinking of the wine of Babylon) Rev 14:8-10; 16:19; 17:2; 18:3.
5. Numerical and numeric nesting patterns throughout the Bible (see Ivan Panin’s research)
6. The whole Bible reflects a poetic and musical style that is systematic. The whole Bible is poetic and can be sung. Much of this Biblical music has been evident in the early Church services of the Middle Age Celtic, Eastern and Catholic churches.(see Suzanne Haik-Vantoura, The Music of the Bible Revealed, Bibal Press, Berkeley, CA , 1991)
7. No ideology or religion contains the Biblical specific and detailed description of an initial perfect Genesis creation allows for the structuring of a model within time that can be tested scientifically today. The same perfect features exist in the description at the time of the re-establishment of the Kingdom of God in the future (see Isaiah, Ezekiel, Revelations).
8. If the Bible were to somehow get lost or totally mutated, we would still find the Gospel in the Sky (the twelve Zodiac signs and their detailed names and function). This heavenly stellar gospel reflects the historical and biblical message of Salvation, role of the Savior, the Resurrection and the defeat of Babylon and death.
9. In spite of the "Higher Critic’s" initiative to distort and mundanalize /trivialize the scriptures in the eighteen and nineteenth centuries – modern archeology has been daily provided evidence that demonstrate that the Biblical historical record is the most accurate documented record in existence.
10. The earliest documentation (e.g., Qumran documents) confirms the accuracy of the Bible as it had come down to us through the millennia.

None of these Biblical features exist in the Talmud – its philosophy, rules, regulations, nor in its sinister Cabala and mythology, or their writings to this day.

When time was awakened with metric links, within the spell of timeless (eternal) spins, after nature’s birth, and His rest, the Eternal, in the morn of day eight, created, from pristine clay, a being. The Eternal:

1. Endowed him with inspiration, vision
2. Inherent command that would transcend eons
3. Bestowed paternal birthright
4. Envelope him in azure light
5. Endowed his mind with executive sight
6. Placed him on a pristine, gardened mount
7. To execute His purpose’s right
8. Exert authority over created life
9. Man’s judgment would affect nature’s essence
10. Stirring creation’s metric substance
11. Received a free will test.

In this blossoming ring, on the ninth day, the being identified new creatures with art.

Yet, the Eternal found imperfection in nature, and from Man’s body, close to his heart, sudden radiance and expression emerged that exalted the son’s being – a creation crowned with warmth, nature’s colors magnified seeing. In this perfumed, animated garden, where beaming Autumn, colors mind mists, she raised her enchanted eyes and smile – elegant, celestial, awed by a sight. In the presence of the Almighty, beside Him, enveloped in azure light, the queen’s eyes and sentiment focused, upon those of her mate and king.

Love’s time stands still, amplifies moments. Translucent leaves, resonant flowers, liven their voices and artful movements. The Eternal’s presence invokes essence, expectation, raises elegant grace. Each pause fills meaning, importance, transforms into butterflies’ dances. Their aura is bright - prismatic motion. Their azure eyes reflect devotion, mirrors the Spirit’s comfort, animation, His warmth, balanced being and nature. In paradise, they walk through crystal air, carpeted plants laden with weightless beads. From mounts, they view galaxies and lands. They thank the Eternal – His purpose and vision. Their hands touching, warm - moment as eons.

In the center of paradise, on the tenth, she sees the tree of life, and that of death. "One tree being for us, the other for God?" "Will my touch bring both life and death?" "The key to His timelessness and wisdom?" "I select this fruit. Reveal your taste!" – Bewildered eyes. All natures bend! A new experience! Eyes penetrate!

On day twelve, he finds her changed, transformed. He couldn’t leave her mortal, degraded. Shares her intoxicated taste, experience. They loose their aura, and feel disgrace. And on the twelfth, with their Eternal, Accuse each other of imperfection. Curses enacted at nine, day fourteen, Eden’s behind, at sunrise day eighteen.

When sin took hold of man’s heart and mind – then all Creation became imperfect, de-energized, bent by man’s standards of want and mind. But the Almighty, on the fourteenth, at three, establishes a sign towards salvation. They received sheepskins to cover condemnation that demanded sinless sacrifice and resurrection into immortal life.

To guide His son’s righteous descendants, through ages of trials and deception, the Eternal:

1. Set them apart
2. An ark
3. A State
4. Gave them Patriarchs
5. Tablets of writ
6. A marriage Covenant – cast in stone
7. The Gospel designed with Zodiac stars
8. And Holy days (calendar) as milestones through eons - a road to His Kingdom and Tree of Life (eternal spiritual life as sons and daughters).
9. It’s there that Prophets and Kings had pointed
10. What Creation and Angels have awaited
11. Historic crossroads on a scheduled month.

On the tenth day of the seventh month, with a star divine in the Virgo sign, angels and shepherds rejoiced! Atonement between God and man arrived – an advent that completes God’s plan aright.

Those whose name is in the Book of Life, sought, and heard the glad tidings – the Messiah, the Christ and Savior, in a symphony of heavenly chorus, had come to fulfill and re-establish, to upset all human shrewd designs. His baptism has reset His Son’s inheritance, overcoming Edenic curses – ensured His authority.

As the Word of Creation and life, he mended teachings and deeds soiled by sin. The Christ healed the sick and lame; spoke and regenerated mind and life. In the first month of the Hebrew year, for each Edenic day and hour, He distinguished and restored conditions. The Messiah paid, and opened the Way:

	As Adam was created on the eighth, the Lord raised Lazarus from death, and Christ transfigured in full glory.
	On day nine, He entered the City on a colt, and cleansed the Temple of sin and gold.
	Engaged by Babylon’s cynical experts that lost God’s blueprint for salvation, they selected Him as the Lamb on the tenth. On this day:

	Eve selected the Tree of Death, and the fig tree’s leaves wither in a day.
	Mary’s grief anoints Christ’s head with oil, and Judas sides with high priests’ toil.

Man was created with executive sight, to choose the fruit from the Tree of Life, to acquire the immortal and changed form, unto life eternal, as God’s son. Just as he lost the aura and became human, with naked, material and mortal form, bearing afflictions, ravages of age, the Eternal, paid and destroyed the grave.

Christ, the Messiah did not leave orphans. Seven days beyond His ascension, the Comforter came on Pentecost day, in the third month on the twelfth day. He animated and changed the Apostles; He awoke the language lost at Babel – Apostles spoke, and all Israel nations understood. Baptized - they received heavenly light.

Christ left them with a plan for His Kingdom – milestones leading to the end of time, when Babylon’s New Pagan World, will see its own dissolution and end; while billions of God’s children, from Adam, that died – now resurrected unto life; the living – changed in a twinkling of an eye, reigning as kings and Melchizedek priests.

The Lord had not forgotten a hair, a leaf; nor martyrs in Babylon, through the millennia. Fear, death, want, and dissolution, cannot exist under God’s natural law. His Righteous will rebuild Creation, the Earth will be a new paradise, His Kingdom of Heaven forever set – On each side of the river a tree of Life.
