In Gen. 12:1 God tells Abraham to leave `your country' and `go to a land that I will show you.'
In
Gen. 12:7 God says, `to your offspring I will give this land.' (Canaan)
Abraham worships `stone altars' or altars made
of stones.
Abraham leaves Canaan and goes to Egypt.
In Egypt Abraham commands his wife Sarah: `Tell [the
Egyptians] instead [of being my wife] that you are my sister.'
Sarah impresses the Pharaoh with her `exotic' appearance.
Pharaoh
takes Sarah as his wife (has SEX with her).
Pharaoh: `why did you lie to me?'
The Pharaoh finds out that Sarah
is Abraham's wife and not his sister. The Pharaoh instead of punishing Abraham, he rewards Abraham with gifts such as:
sheep, oxen, slaves, donkeys, WOMEN SLAVES…
He rewards Abraham because of his `sin' with Sarah.
A plague comes to Pharaoh's family. Abraham leaves Egypt!
Abraham returns to Canaan wealthier and
powerful.
For example, the Hebrews had so much cattle that they were fighting among each other.
Lot (a
close family member of Abraham) chooses Jordan for his land (Gen. 13:14) Abraham chooses Canaan.
Gen. 15:1 descendants.
Hagar
the Egyptian slave girl gives birth to Ishmael. At 86 years of age, Abraham fathers Ishmael.
99 years old (Gen. 17:4)
8 day! Circumcision.
17:19 Isaac is born. Sarah's gives birth to Isaac.
Three men appears before Abraham: are
they angels or magicians?
Only 2 angels arrive at Sodom.
The 2 magicians or angels strike the inhabitants of Sodom with blindness. Sodom is destroyed with 'fire
from above'.
`Let us make our father drunk with wine.' Older daughter of Lot sleeps with him. The next day, it is the
youngest one's turn.
Sarah: `cast out the Egyptian slave girl and her son away!'
Abraham sends them away with
NO MONEY, NO INHERITANCE in the desert wilderness, wishing them to die. God comes to the rescue (even though it is god who
tells Abraham to obey his wife).
Gen. 22:2 HUMAN SACRIFICE. ERECT AN ALTAR AND SLAUGHTER YOUR SON TO ME.
----------
----ISAAC, JACOB, ESSAU:
Abraham commands Isaac to go to his homeland and marry Rebecca, the daughter of one of Abraham's nephews.
Abraham
dies… he is 175 years old.
Gen. 25:23 TWO NATIONS (Twins). Red hair: first child= Esau. But Jacob was the
mother's favorite.
Isaac moves his family and settles in the land of the Philistines (Palestine).
Isaac (just like Abraham with Sarah) says that Rebecca was his sister instead of his wife. And just like
Abraham in the land of the Egyptians… in the land of the Philistines, Isaac becomes very wealthy and powerful.
Isaac
is deceived: Gen. 27:1. Isaac gives Jacob the blessing of the first born. Now the younger son will become master of the first
born.
Jacob:
Jacob travels to Jerusalem and picks up a stone and uses it as a pillow. Jacob's Ladder: Gen. 28:13
GATE OF HEAVEN: JERUSALEM! (JERUSALEM BECOMES A SACRED SITE!).
Jacob anoints the stone with oil: THE ANNOINTED ONE.
Jacob marries Rachael and Leah,
both are sisters and Jacob's close relatives.
In Genesis 30: 31 Rachael steals from her father's magic stones: the image of the household gods.
Jacob returns
home with sheep, men and women and the magic stones.
In 32: 28 Jacob battles with a spirit. From hence forward he no
longer will be called Jacob but Israel. And from henceforward the Jews do not eat the fine muscle in the hip-socket…
the part of the body were Jacob was struck by the spirit.
Dinah is raped by uncircumcised Goyim. Dinah will only be
given to circumcised men. Thus, everyone in the community of the rapists become circumcised, however, when everyone was circumcised
and in pain, the Jews massacre every male--even though the majority of them were innocent.
Jewish motto: Steal everything
(including little girls who are still virgins... only virgins) Kill every male Leave no evidence
Gen. 45:1 Rachael
give birth to Benjamin; she dies.
Soon Isaac dies at 180 years old.
--------------
----Joseph
Son of Jacob Grandson of Isaac Great-grandson of Abraham
Joseph never talks to god like Abraham
and later Moses but he hears messages from dreams. (Gen. 37:6) Jacob gives Joseph a fine elegant coat: symbolic for `no manual
labor.'
Judas sells Joseph to the Ishmaelite for 20 shackles of silver [just like Jesus was sold by another Judas for
30 coins of silver].
Joseph's brothers killed a goat and made it seem that he was killed by a wild animal.
Joseph is
taken to Egypt. In Gen. 37:4, 39:2 Joseph is made an overseer of an Egyptian house: `brought us a Hebrew to insult us!'
Joseph is accused of rape. Taken to jail.
The Pharaoh dreams… `who ever explicates the
dream I will make him overseer of all the land of Egypt.' Joseph is able to interpret the Pharaoh's dream: the Pharaoh takes
off his ring and puts it on Joseph.
Joseph marries the daughter of the high priest.
Joseph becomes the most powerful man in Egypt with
the exception of the Pharaoh. (Gen. 41: 51) All of the Earth came to buy grain from Joseph--even the brothers of Joseph.
The brothers of Joseph, however, do not recognize Joseph. Joseph speaks the Egyptian tongue.
JEWS
ARE DESERT NOMADS!
Gen: 45:4 (all Egyptians out!) "I am Joseph, your brother!"
Pharaoh to Joseph: `I will give
you and your people the best land in Egypt and they will live of the fat of the land.'
Jacob goes to Egypt with all
of their belongings and livestock.
Gen. 46:2 `God's promise'
Jacob blesses the Pharaoh. Jews invade Egypt's
Gosher: the fertile area North/East of the Nile delta.
Joseph became more powerful by trading grain for land and services.
He effectively abolish PRIVATE PROPERTY and established a FEUDAL SYSTEM that was very profitable for Joseph.
Jacob
dies. Jacob was 147 years old when he died.
Joseph was balm and put in a coffin and buried in Egypt. He died at the
age of 110 years.
On Jesus:
OUR HOLY LAND IS NOT JERUSALEM/Bethlehem BUT MEXICO!!
---------
Jesus was
a Palestinian born Jew. He spoke the Aramaic *(sp) language. In Luke it is said that he was born where animals live, eat
and probably shit as well (Mathew does not mention the journey or the place of Jesus` birth at all). It is believed that he
was born on Dec. 25, but this is inaccurate. He probably was born around April or October in 6th B. C. instead of year 1 B.C.
Jesus
mother, Mary, was unmarried when she conceived Jesus. This is problematic because back then this was seen as it is seen now
(by Semites) as a dishonor (see, `honor killing'). Usually such offender would be decapitated and thrown at a well. Yet, it
is also said that Joseph married Mary before Jesus was born. (Thus, the story goes, Jesus was born of a virgin and conceived
by god). Jews believe however that Jesus was born of fornication.
Jesus was born in Bethlehem: land of his ancestors.
So, more than likely, Jesus was welcomed by his family members instead of animals and sorcerers as is told in the New Testament
of the Bible.
Jesus had four brothers: James, Jude, Joseph, and Simeon; and two sisters which names are not mentioned
in the Bible. (I must mention: Jesus' own family members said that he was MAD). Jesus grew up in a peasant society in Nazareth.
The
Jews have been fighting against invading armies for centuries that all their hopes were pin on a Savior: or the anointed of
god(Messiah in Hebrew/Christ in Greek).
Jesus understood this: and that is why his disciples were made of 12 Jews:
in comparison to the12 tribes of Israel. Jesus, teachings, was simple: go back to the ideals of the founding fathers of the
Israelite nation such as Abraham, and Jacob, Moses, and others.
So, why Jews do not accept Jesus? Jesus challenged
everything that the Jews and the Jewish temple stood for. The Jews in the time of Jesus just as today's Jews, their whole
faith rest in the Jewish Temple at Jerusalem. For it was here that they used to sacrifice a pure white lamb whose sacrificial
blood was then taken to the sanctuary and sprinkled in front of the large curtain which is supposed to hide god himself. The
Jews believed that God lived behind such curtains (in Jerusalem…[see Jacob`s latter/ Solomon`s temple])… so
they would sprinkled blood and burnt incense and other rituals design to keep it pure.
But according to Jesus, the
Temple had become corrupted and was no longer holy and pure: it was a place where the Jewish treasury, bank, and based of
authority stood. Therefore, Jesus was a fierce critic of the Jewish temple system. He believed as one can read in the Bible
that the Priestly class were manipulating Jewish purity laws in order to keep undesirables such as the lame, the blind, the
sick and deformed, and others from entering the temple at Jerusalem.
Jews also disliked Jesus because he made them
look as hypocrites: see the parable of the good Samaritan. He also did not believe in the use of violence even against the
enemies. He furthered outraged the Jews by intermingling with uncircumcised Goyim such as Roman Centurion *(sp), tax collectors
and prostitutes. After all, the Messiah was not supposed to come and save the undesirables, prostitutes, tax collectors and
the unclean Goyim, but he supposed to come and save the Jews and the Jews only.
He further outraged the Jews by riding
into the city of Jerusalem in a White Donkey during Passover week. Jews today as they did yesterday, believe in the sayings
and prophecies of their religious scriptures: and in them, they foretell the coming of their god or messiah riding a white
donkey.
Jesus also made the Jews mad because he believed that the house of god was a house of worship and not a house
where one can make money or be made into a business. (See the Jews and the Money Changers): in this little incident we are
told that Jewish pilgrims had to changed their IMPURE currency for PURE temple coins.
Finally, Jesus was BETRAYED by
his best friend for 30 silver coins. He like many Jewish prophets before him was martyred.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST JOHN
CHAPTER 8
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were aAbraham’s bchildren, ye would do the cworks of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father,
even God.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and acame• from God; neither came I of myself, but he bsent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot ahear• my word.
44 Ye are of your father the adevil•, and the blusts of your father ye will do. He was a cmurderer from the beginning, and abode not in the dtruth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a elie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a fliar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you aconvinceth• me of bsin•? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47aHe• that is of God bheareth• God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a adevil•?
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I ahonour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
50 And I seek not mine own aglory•: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see adeath•.
52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou
sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never ataste• of death.
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my aFather that bhonoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto
you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
10 In Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of the Italian Cohort, as it was
called. 2He was a devout man who feared God with all his household; he gave alms generously to the people and prayed constantly
to God. 3One afternoon at about three o'clock he had a vision in which he clearly saw an angel of God coming in and saying
to him, "Cornelius." 4He stared at him in terror and said, "What is it, Lord?" He answered, "Your prayers and your alms have
ascended as a memorial before God. 5Now send men to Joppa for a certain Simon who is called Peter; 6he is lodging with Simon,
a tanner, whose house is by the seaside." 7When the angel who spoke to him had left, he called two of his slaves and a devout
soldier from the ranks of those who served him, 8and after telling them everything, he sent them to Joppa.
9 About noon the next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
10He became hungry and wanted something to eat; and while it was being prepared, he fell into a trance. 11He saw the heaven
opened and something like a large sheet coming down, being lowered to the ground by its four corners. 12In it were all kinds
of four-footed creatures and reptiles and birds of the air. 13Then he heard a voice saying, "Get up, Peter; kill and eat."
14But Peter said, "By no means, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is profane or unclean." 15The voice said to him
again, a second time, "What God has made clean, you must not call profane." 16This happened three times, and the thing was
suddenly taken up to heaven.
17 Now while Peter was greatly puzzled about what to make of the vision that he had seen, suddenly the men sent by Cornelius
appeared. They were asking for Simon's house and were standing by the gate. 18They called out to ask whether Simon, who was
called Peter, was staying there. 19While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Look, threea
men are searching for you. 20Now get up, go down, and go with them without hesitation; for I have sent them." 21So Peter went
down to the men and said, "I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for your coming?"
22They answered, "Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation,
was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear what you have to say." 23So Peterb invited them
in and gave them lodging. The next day he got up and went with them, and some of the believersc from Joppa accompanied him.
24The following day they came to Caesarea. Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close
friends. 25On Peter's arrival Cornelius met him, and falling at his feet, worshiped him. 26But Peter made him get up, saying,
"Stand up; I am only a mortal." 27And as he talked with him, he went in and found that many had assembled; 28and he said to
them, "You yourselves know that it is unlawful for a Jew to associate with or to visit a Gentile; but God has shown me
that I should not call anyone profane or unclean. 29So when I was sent for, I came without objection. Now may I ask why you
sent for me?"
30 Cornelius replied, "Four days ago at this very hour, at three o'clock, I was praying in my house when suddenly a man
in dazzling clothes stood before me. 31He said, 'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms have been remembered
before God. 32Send therefore to Joppa and ask for Simon, who is called Peter; he is staying in the home of Simon, a tanner,
by the sea.' 33Therefore I sent for you immediately, and you have been kind enough to come. So now all of us are here in the
presence of God to listen to all that the Lord has commanded you to say." Gentiles Hear the Good News 34 Then Peter began
to speak to them: "I truly understand that God shows no partiality, 35but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what
is right is acceptable to him.
IN ANTIOCH, THE JEW SAUL WHO LATER BECAME PAUL, WAS MET WITH REDICULE FROM THE ASSEMBLED
JEWS. THE QUESTION RAISED BY THE JEWS WAS: "HOW CAN A MAN BE RAISED FROM THE DEAD?"
PAUL THEN PROCLAIMED THE FOLLOWING
'DEATH' SENTENCE TO THE JEWS: ID EST, SINCE YOU REJECT JESUS SON OF JOSEPH AS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD, YOU, THE JEWS, ARE UNWORTHY
OF ETERNAL LIFE AND SALVATION!
THEREFORE, WE ARE NOW TURNING TO THE "GENTILES."
WITH THE FOLLOWING WORDS PAUL MADE THE CHRISTIAN FAITH A
WORLD RELIGION INSTEAD OF A JEWISH "SECT"!!
When the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and
with violent abuse contradicted what Paul said.
46Both Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and said, "It was necessary that the word of God be spoken to you first, but
since you reject it and condemn yourselves as unworthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles. 12
47For so the Lord has commanded us, 'I have made you a light to the Gentiles, that you may be an instrument of salvation
to the ends of the earth.'" 48The Gentiles were delighted when they heard this and glorified the word of the Lord. All
who were destined for eternal life came to believe,
49and the word of the Lord continued to spread through the whole region.
50The Jews, however, incited the women of prominence who were worshipers and the leading men of the city, stirred up
a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their territory.
Peter and Cornelius 10 In Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of the Italian
Cohort, as it was called. 2He was a devout man who feared God with all his household; he gave alms generously to the people and
prayed constantly to God. 3One afternoon at about three o'clock he had a vision in which he clearly saw an angel of God
coming in and saying to him, "Cornelius." 4He stared at him in terror and said, "What is it, Lord?" He answered, "Your
prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God. 5Now send men to Joppa for a certain Simon who is called
Peter; 6he is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the seaside."
... The next day he got up and went
with them, and some of the believersc from Joppa accompanied him. 24The following day they came to Caesarea. Cornelius
was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends. 25On Peter's arrival Cornelius met him,
and falling at his feet, worshiped him. 26But Peter made him get up, saying, "Stand up; I am only a mortal." 27
A ROMAN DIES BECAUSE
HE SPOKE LIKE A GOD: 21On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat on the platform, and delivered
a public address to them. 22The people kept shouting, "The voice of a god, and not of a mortal!" 23And immediately,
because he had not given the glory to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
8 In Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet and had never walked, for he had been crippled from
birth. 9He listened to Paul as he was speaking. And Paul, looking at him intently and seeing that he had faith to be
healed, 10said in a loud voice, "Stand upright on your feet." And the manc sprang up and began to walk. 11When the crowds
saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in human form!" 12Barnabas
they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. 13The priest of Zeus, whose temple
was just outside the city,d brought oxen and garlands to the gates; he and the crowds wanted to offer sacrifice. 14When the
apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their clothes and rushed out into the crowd, shouting, 15"Friends,e why
are you doing this? We are mortals just like you, and we bring you good news, that you should turn from these worthless
things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. 16
THIS IS MY FAVORITE: 28 After we had reached safety, we then learned that the island was called Malta. 2The
natives showed us unusual kindness. Since it had begun to rain and was cold, they kindled a fire and welcomed all of us
around it. 3Paul had gathered a bundle of brushwood and was putting it on the fire, when a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened
itself on his hand. 4When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "This man must
be a murderer; though he has escaped from the sea, justice has not allowed him to live." 5He, however, shook off the
creature into the fire and suffered no harm. 6They were expecting him to swell up or drop dead, but after they had waited
a long time and saw that nothing unusual had happened to him, they changed their minds and began to say that he was
a god.
When Motecuhzoma [Montezuma]
had given necklaces to each one, Cortés asked him: "Are you Motecuhzoma? Are you the king? Is it true that you are the
king Motecuhzoma?"
And the king said: "Yes, I am Motecuhzoma." Then he stood up to welcome Cortés; he came forward,
bowed his head low and addressed him in these words: "Our lord, you are weary. The journey has tired you, but now you
have arrived on the earth. You have come to your city, Mexico. You have come here to sit on your throne, to sit under its
canopy.
"The kings who have gone before, your representatives, guarded it and preserved it for your coming.
The kings Itzcoatl, Motecuhzoma the Elder, Axayacatl, Tizoc and Ahuitzol ruled for you in the City of Mexico. The people
were protected by their swords and sheltered by their shields.
"Do the kings know the destiny of those they
left behind, their posterity? If only they are watching! If only they can see what I see!
"No, it is not
a dream. I am not walking in my sleep. I am not seeing you in my dreams.... I have seen you at last! I have met you face
to face! I was in agony for five days, for ten days, with my eyes fixed on the Region of the Mystery. And now you have
come out of the clouds and mists to sit on your throne again.
"This was foretold by the kings who governed your
city, and now it has taken place. You have come back to us; you have come down from the sky. Rest now, and take possession
of your royal houses. Welcome to your land, my lords! "
BUT DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS MYTH? Another legend speaks of certain white and bearded men, who, advancing
from the shores of lake Titicaca, established an ascendency over the natives, and imparted to them the blessings of civilization.
It may remind us of the tradition existing among the Aztecs in respect to Quetzalcoatl, the good deity, who with a similar
garb and aspect came up the great plateau from the east on a like benevolent mission to the natives. The analogy is the
more remarkable, as there is no trace of any communication with, or even knowledge of, each other to be found in the
two nations.
In 1778 Captain James Cook 'DISCOVERS' Hawaii. But this is not all, here is the funny part:
The Sandwich
Islands were discovered in February, the mainland of America sighted in March 1778. All summer they explored the coast from
Oregon northwards, through the Bering Strait, right up to Icy Cape, enduring storm and hardship and privation without complaint; but
there was no sign of an ice-free north-east passage; and Captain Cook decided to return to Hawaii in the Sandwich Islands.
Then
came the end. The natives were celebrating victory when they arrived, and mistook the Englishmen for their great god Lono
and his immortal company. Divine honours were offered; and strangely enough Cook accepted them - perhaps because he
was prepared to accept anything that made for the success of the expedition. Trouble soon began, when it became apparent
that the entertainment of a god was an exceedingly expensive affair; while the death of one of the immortal crew, and
his burial on the island, put a certain strain on even native credulity. Quarrels became frequent; sticks and stones were
freely used; and Cook decided to sail away, much to everybody's relief.
Within a week the Resolution had sprung
her foremast, and they were back again. Trouble began immediately. One of the cutters was stolen, and Captain Cook put
ashore in some force to effect restitution. Natives crowded the beach, armed and excited. Stones were thrown and there
was some firing. Cook turned, and as he did so was stabbed in the back and speared. He fell dead into the water.
Subject: Turning the other
cheek, and the idea of the forgiveness of sins for Jews
`If someone slaps you on your right cheek… offer him your left.'
`Most people when they
hear this phrase they think it means that you have got to be a doormat for Jesus. To be a wimp. To lie down and take
whatever comes to you.
`In those days, people in that culture only ever used their right hand for doing anything
in public. And so, to hit somebody on the right cheek would involve hitting somebody with the back of the hand. And
hitting somebody with the back of the hand is demeaning. It says: `You are an inferior and I am dismissing you. And I am treating
you as a piece of dirt!' But then, if the person who is hit turns the other cheek, the left cheek, the only way that you
can hit the left cheek with the right hand is with a blow like this [with the front of the hand].
`You can't
do it with the back of your hand. And to hit somebody like that is a very different thing. --- socially and culturally--- instead
of saying: `You are an inferior, you are a piece of dirt--!' It is saying: `You are my equal, and I have to regard you
as a fellow human being.'
So that, turning the other cheek cuts the aggressor down to size. You may still get
hurt; you may still be knocked unconscious--but you cut the aggressor down to size. And you bring the person who is in
the position of weakness back up to human dignity again.'
--------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ The
idea of the forgiveness of sins for Jews
The idea of the forgiveness of sins for Jews is a much, much bigger thing.
Forgiveness of sins meant that God would finally release Israel from the Sins which had caused all this trouble.
So
forgiveness of sins had to do with release from their political and theological slavery.
What Jesus is quite clearly
saying at the [last] supper is, Israel's history is reaching it's all-important dramatic climax. It is focused on me
and my work. Israel's History's climax will involve my suffering and death very soon.
