WISDOM FROM ABOVE!

 

I do not follow the man made religions of this world that confuse and divide us and start wars between us, I follow the Word of God (Psalms 9:10), His Son and our Lord Jesus Christ (John 8:42), and the leading of His Holy Spirit (John 14:26) that teaches us all things according to His will, which is given freely to anyone who asks (Luke 11:9-13)!

A pure religion is one that brings you closer to God, and in order to do this is not only to spread God's Word with love through the help of God's Holy Spirit, but to also help those in need, without asking for anything in return. To love God with all your heart, mind, and soul & trust His ways, to love your neighbors as yourself, and to seek God's face/presence continually!

I don't believe in 3 gods (Deuteronomy 6:4-9). I believe what the Bible teaches us, that YHWH is Spirit (John 4:24) that can not be seen with human eyes (John 4:24).

 

GODS MESSAGE TO ALL: Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear will understand!

Anyone who follows man made religions that spread hate and divisions by mixing God's Word with pagan traditions of mankind is influenced by demonic entities (Ephesians 6:12). This includes all man made faiths, like Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, and Hellenism (a group of Greeks that still worship the 12 Olympian gods). God calls these, "Babylon The Great" and warns us to get out of her, in (Revelation 18:4).

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. - Revelation 18:4

 

What is the message of Hosea chapter 4?

The one and only true God and Creator. says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee"

There is no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in the land: Each of these three points is connected. When people forsake the knowledge of God, soon truth and mercy are both gone. Truth must be rooted in something more than personal opinion, and mercy means going beyond self-interest.

God never changes (Mal 3:6), when He wants to call someone, He personally comes to them with a voice, vision or dream.

(Joel 2:28-32) 28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come. 32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call. SEE ALSO: Ezekiel 14:22, 23

(Proverbs 3:5-6) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

 

Speaking in behalf of God does not make one "The God".

Speaking in behalf of God does not make one "God the Creator". Just like Moses and many of God's chosen spoke God's Word, because God put His word in their lips. Just like the miracles Moses did infront of Pharaoh, and just how Jesus also did miracles... through God's Holy Spirit, which is God'spower and not human power.

Jesus said in John 12:49-50 The Father who sent me told me what to say and what to teach. And I know that eternal life comes from what the Father commands. So whatever I say is what the Father told me to say.”

John 14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

There are several indications in John's gospel that the source of Jesus' authority is God the Father. First, Jesus is God's authorized agent on earth, just like all prophets in the Torah, sent into the world to make God known (1:18; 3:17, 32-34; 4:34; 5:24; 17:3-6). Second, the Father has given Jesus the Spirit to speak on his behalf (3:34). God's power is manifest through the Holy Spirit.

1 Corinthians 15:28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all.

I love everyone, never wished harm to anyone either, I own nothing in my name, and what I have I share with the homeless and the needy without asking for anything in return. I trust God's judgment not the judgment of mankind. I never voted in my life and never will, because God is my King, my heavenly Father, and my Savior, and it is Him I trust completely to bring true justice to everyone accordingly.

This is the main reason I do not base my faith in God through the religious opinions of this world that mix truth with lies. I rely on what is written in the Torah and the Gospels by the interpretation given to me through the help of the Holy Spirit that is also the spirit of Truth.

In Jewish scripture, the Holy Spirit is a divine power that can transform people and the world, and is never portrayed as a person. The term "Spirit" translates the Hebrew word Ruah, which means breath, air, and wind. The Holy Spirit is associated with many aspects, including:

* Prophecy and wisdom: The divine aspect of prophecy and wisdom
* Influence of God: The divine force, quality, and influence of the Most High God, over the universe or over his creatures
* Grace of God: The channel by which God's grace flows into our lives
* Knowing God's heart: Helping us to know the heart of God

I never blamed God when things went wrong in my life. I never felt alone because I always felt God's presence around me, and this is why I thank YHWH instead, for giving me the strength and courage to overcome them. I don't pray to Jesus, I pray to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, in the name of Jesus because it was Jesus that taught me what is God's will and how much God loves us.

When I had many fears and had a hard time falling asleep for many years, I use to pray to crosses for help. Then one day, around noon time I felt my soul being caught up in the spirit, I got scared and came back into my body. Then it happened again, but this time I was not afraid at all. When my soul was caught up in the presence of God I felt like I was a little child again, I felt loved and safe and I never wanted to leave that place. I did not see God's face, but I did experience His love all around me. Then I heard God's voice and we communicated mentally, without using words or other physical signs.

God said to me "Why do you have fears, don't you trust me 100% like you always tell me?" then I heard God's voice again telling me "Who do you choose to have control over you, me or fear?" God also told me "Why do you pray to crosses that have no breath in them and can't help you? Seek my Face!!!"

This was the day our heavenly Father took all my fears away, by correcting me and setting me straight!
This happened to me 40 years ago, I am now 68 years old and I have no fears whatsoever since that day. I am not even afraid of death. Praised be His name forever and ever!

Jesus performed miracles and wonders the same way Moses did, by the power of God and not their own.

If you read Torah and the Gospels there's no need for explanations through scientists or anyone else to tell you how miracles were performed.

Acts 2:22 "Men of Israel, hear these words. Jesus the Nazorean, a man approved by God to you by mighty works and wonders and signs WHICH GOD DID BY HIM IN THE MIDST OF YOU, even as you yourselves know.

When Paul and Barnabas performed miracles at Lystra, many started to worship them by offering sacrifices to them, thinking they were the gods of Olympus. But Paul and Barnabas stopped them, telling them they were mere men, just like them, that the miracles they performed where done by the power of God and not their own, and that they should only worship the one true God in heaven, when they restrained the people from offering sacrifice to them in (Acts 14:9-18)

Matthew 4:10 When he was tempted by Satan, Jesus replied "...for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE."

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, "If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him".

John 14:28 ..."for my Father is greater than I."

John 10:49 "For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. 50 I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.

Matthew 19:17 And he/Jesus said unto him, "Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments".

Matthew 20:28 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.

Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord."

Matthew 19:25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? 26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, "With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible."

​​

The spirit that was in Christ came from God and went back to God. Not Jesus in the flesh.

Then “Jesus called out with a loud voice, 'Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.' When he had said this, he breathed his last” (Luke 23:46) .

Jesus said "God is one! (Mark 12:29)" and that if we are also led by the Spirit of God, we are also one with God. Not one god, but one in spirit, in thought, in character.

John 14:20 AT THAT DAY ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

* That day, is the day Christ is born in you, when you become a new creation.

In the Bible, Titus 3:5 states that God saves people through "the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit". This refers to the spiritual cleansing that happens when someone accepts Christ as their savior, and their life is "regenerated" or "made new".

The Greek word for regeneration in this verse is palingenesias/born again, which also appears in Matthew 19:28.

Regeneration is a spiritual change that happens to the heart through the power of the Holy Spirit. It involves cleansing a person from sin, creating a new nature, and being clean and new after being reborn. It's a necessary step for people to move from a state of separation from God and death to the Kingdom of God

Jesus never called himself King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

In fact, he went into hiding when he was in trial before Pilate. Pilate says, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus refused to accept the title: "You have said it, not I." Jesus rejected the whole idea of being a king and calls us also to reject this idea and to think of ourselves as being followers of Jesus, a king. At least not at that time, because his Kingdom on earth has not come down from heaven.

* Jesus represented and taught us about God's Kingdom. This is the only Kingdom he associated himself into when he said "My Kingdom is NOT of this world."

In John 18:36 Jesus is referring to his spiritual kingdom of truth, which comes from heaven and is characterized by righteousness, peace, joy, authority, and impact. As believers in Jesus, people are citizens of heaven and subjects of His Fathers' kingdom.

Jesus came “preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God” (Mark 1:14) and said that “for this purpose I have been sent” (Luke 4:43). After He had trained His disciples, “He sent them to preach the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:2). He told all His followers to “Seek first the kingdom of God!” (Matthew 6:33).

Speaking in behalf of God does not make one "The God". Seek God's face (His presence)! (2 Chronicles 7:14; Psalm 27:8)

Believe in Jesus words instead of traditions of mankind!

Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

John 6:38 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

John 12:49-50 The Father who sent me told me what to say and what to teach. And I know that eternal life comes from what the Father commands. So whatever I say is what the Father told me to say.”

John 14:24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me."

1 Corinthians 15:28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all.

 

Isaiah 42:8 I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

 

The Servant in Isaiah 42 is Israel, indeed in the Servant songs generally, is Jacob, representing the chosen but exiled nation of Judah/Israel. As Christ also represents Israel.

Jesus was an obedient servant of God, and if you keep his sayings you will do the same!

 

Why no Christian teacher teach you this, but instead twist Jesus words to fit your man made traditions?

 

* Jesus told us to remember his words (John 14:26), his teachings that where not his own but the Fathers in heaven.

In John 14:26, Jesus said, “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things and will bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

(Ephesians 4:6) One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

 

If we are able to read, then we should be able to ask God's Holy Spirit to interpret the scriptures for us instead of relying on religious teachers to do it for us.

What is the one thing God requires of us?
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8).

(Isaiah 63:16) "For you are our father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us; you, O Lord, are our father; our Redeemer from of old is your name"

In Habakkuk 1-2, Habakkuk Laments Israel's Injustice (when will this wickedness end?) and God Responds. The Torah is neglected, resulting in violence and injustice, and all of it is being tolerated by Israel's corrupt leaders. Habakkuk is crying out, asking God to do something, and God tells him to have trust/faith in Him and that God will deal with them in His own time.

 

“Ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?”

Jesus comes back twice, once for his Saints, and in his final coming with his Army of Angels.

 

❤🕊🔥 (Habakkuk 2:3) says, 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, "Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry".

In the Bible, Jesus refers to the Holy Spirit as the "Spirit of Truth" in John 14:15-21 and John 16:12-13:

*** The message in Habakkuk reminds us that while God may seem silent and uninvolved in our world, He always has a plan to deal with evil and always works out justice . . . eventually. The example of the prophet Habakkuk encourages believers to wait on the Lord, expecting that He will indeed work out all things for our good (Romans 8:28).

THE WORLD CAN NOT SEE HIM - BUT WE SEE HIM

*** This is "the appointed time" and Christ is already with us in spirit which is the spirit of truth. The world can not see him, but we see him because he dwells in us (John 14:15-25). Jesus first comes with his saints (faithful ones), then with his angels (his hosts of army) who will let Satan loose to fight the last fight.

(Ephesians 2:1, 2) 1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

*** To be "quickened" means to be kept spiritually alive and active!

(1 Corinthians 2:12-14) 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

(1 Corinthians 15:51) Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed.

*** Be "Born Again from Above [through the regeneration of the spirit in you]. Salvation includes "the washing of regeneration." This refers to the spiritual cleansing which takes place when a person accepts Christ in salvation. At that moment, a person's life is "regenerated," or "made new." The Holy Spirit renews our lives when we come to faith in Christ.

 

THE MILLENNIUM

 

THE ONE THOUSAND YEAR REIGN WITH CHRIST

(Ephesians 2:4-6) 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath RAISED US UP TOGETHER WITH THEM (firstfruits) IN THE CLOUDS (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18), and made us SIT TOGETHER in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: SEE ALSO: Ephesians 2:18-22; Romans 8; and Psalm 27

In Revelation 1:10 John was caught up in the spirit (not his body), when he was given the signs of Revelation.

Revelation 1:10 "I was caught up in spirit on the Lord’s day and heard behind me a voice as loud as a trumpet..."

 

Ezekiel was also caught-up in the spirit, in Ezekiel Chapter 8

Saul was filled with the Spirit of God (1 Samuel 10:9-10).

David was filled with the Spirit of God (1 Samuel 16:13).

 

*** Christ appearing in the clouds means his feet do not touch the earth, not at this time. We are taken up (raised/caught up) in spirit (to meet the lord in the clouds) and we will join (together with them) those who were faithful to God, that died in the past and have been resurrected, to dwell in God's tabernacle (Psalms 27; Romans 8) with us. Jesus said "My father's house/tabernacle has many mansions (John 14:1-3)" where Jesus has already prepared a place for us to be protected during the Great Tribulation.

(John 14:27-29) 27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid. 28 You heard Me say, ‘I am going away, and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you will believe.*** The Antichrist/Satan is chained in the Abyss at this time (Revelation 20:1–3) for 1,000 years. because this is A SPIRITUAL WAR, between the evil forces of this world against Christ and his Saints who are fighting against the darkness of this world with truth and justice (We are the light of the world!), in spiritual places with Christ.

(Jude 1:14. 15) 14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

*** NOTICE: This is not the last appearance of Christ, this is a time Christ appears with his Saints to execute judgment (not vengeance) by bringing light to those who are still living in darkness.

During the time of Millennium Jesus will rule with an iron rod.

The word "rod" refers to a shepherd's staff. His sheep know his voice and follow him. Jesus will rule 'with a rod of iron' during this time because of the sinful nature of man (Psalm 2:9).

The main focus during the Millennium will be to continue the work of salvation—helping people come unto Christ by exposing the false religious teachings of this world. Not with man made weapons that shed blood, but with God's Word that is sharper than a man made two-edged sword.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

So this is the time that the Gospel will be spread to all so no one will have the excuse to say "We did not know!"

The Millennium is a period of trial before Judgment Day. What court judges someone without first being tried?

We spread the word of God and whoever does not want to listen will be judged on Judgement Day.

Therefore, "Put on the whole armor of God!" Ephesians 6:11-18

Our fight is not with man made weapons, but with the Word of God (Hebrews 4:12)! Our job is to fight and expose the lies of this world with God's Truth with the help of the paraclete!

The Holy Spirit, as our paraclete, means that the Spirit is our comforter and counselor. Jesus spirit ascended to heaven, He promised to never leave us and what He meant was that the Holy Spirit will be with us as our paraclete who speaks the Truth by bringing in remembrance all Christ has taught us (John 14:26).

*** While Satan is bound for a thousand years, God allows one last opportunity for those born during the Millennium to choose and accept Christ as their Messiah (REMEMBER: We have been given free will from the beginning). During the millennial kingdom, God will show us that, even in the absence of the tempter (i.e., Satan), there will be those whose hearts are “deceitful above all things and beyond cure” and who will be ripe (separation of the wheat from the tares, Matthew 13:24–43) for deception (Ephesians 4:22-24).

EVERY EYE WILL SEE HIM - THE GREAT TRIBULATION

After the One Thousand Years/millennium reign ends, this is the time when Christ will appear with his armies of Angels (while the faithful ones in Christ will be out of the way), let Satan loose, and execute vengeance upon the wicket that did not repent from their evil ways, during the time of the Millennium. ❤🕊🔥

In Habakkuk 1-2, Habakkuk Laments Israel's Injustice (when will this wickedness end?) and God Responds. The Torah is neglected, resulting in violence and injustice, and all of it is being tolerated by Israel's corrupt leaders. Habakkuk is crying out, asking God to do something, and God tells him to have trust/faith in Him and that God will deal with them in His own time.

FIRST RESURECTION

(Revelation 20:6) 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Is the spirit in you the same spirit that was in Christ? Are you exposing the evil that is in this world by bringing light into darkness with God's word (which is like a two-edged sword) that is sharper than man made weapons?

If you say yes to both then rejoice, because you are now taking part in the first resurrection (Millennium) and your are sealed with God's seal. Amen?

SECOND RESURRECTION and FINAL DEATH

(Ezekiel 18:32) For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

*** Jesus does not burn anyone in the Lake of Fire, as many are taught by false teachers. Jesus words are like fire, there's ONLY one fire 🔥, believers in him that follow his teachings and trust God completely by keeping God's ways are not harmed by it (Daniel 3:25), only those who deny him feel the burning.

1 Corinthians 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

The Bible verse 1 Peter 4:12 in the King James Version says, "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you".
 
In the King James Version of the Bible, Isaiah 43:2 says, "When thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee".
 
Zechariah 13:9 “And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.”

In the Bible, God's presence is described as a refining fire that purifies people like gold and silver, removing impurities and making them righteous. 
 
The verse continues, "But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy". 
 
The verse suggests that God uses suffering to refine the faith of his people, and that present suffering contributes to future glory.

There's no such place as Hell where souls are tortured day and night forever. Hell is what you go through in this life if you disobey God's Word. Lately, for many Christians and Christian educators Hell is no longer a a literal place of torture. When you sin (go against God's Word) you will suffer the consequences of your actions, there's no other way around it.

According to the Bible, all sin must be punished because God is holy and cannot allow sin to go unpunished. Sins have serious consequences, they seporate you from the presence and protection of God, and that the wages of sin without repentance is everlasting death (Romans 6:23).

The Bible also says that God does not want wicked people to die, but rather that they should turn from their ways and live. This is stated in Ezekiel 33:11, which says, "As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live".

Hell and Death are thrown in to the lake of fire (Revelation 20:11-15)
The soul that sins will die, will seize to exist. This is the second death, which is final!

There is the need to explain what "the lake of fire is", in which Christendom teaches that "hell" or "hell fire" that the King James Bible reads at Matthew 5:22, 23, 29, 30; 10:28; 18, 8, 9; 23:15, 33 (Greek γέεννα, transliterated as Gehenna) is the same as "the lake of fire", which is true, for "the lake of fire" and "hell" at Matthew 5, 10, 18 and 23 means "everlasting destruction" and NOT "eternal torment for the wicked". The Greek word "γέεννα" is a place where both soul (Greek: ψυχή, psyche) and body could be destroyed/seize to exist (Matthew 10:28).

If we are able to read, then we should be able to ask God's Holy Spirit to interpret the scriptures for us, instead of relying on religious teachers to do it for us.

 

What is the one thing God requires of us?
“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8).

(Isaiah 63:16) "For you are our father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us; you, O Lord, are our father; our Redeemer from of old is your name"

In Habakkuk 1-2, Habakkuk Laments Israel's Injustice (when will this wickedness end?) and God Responds. The Torah is neglected, resulting in violence and injustice, and all of it is being tolerated by Israel's corrupt leaders. Habakkuk is crying out, asking God to do something, and God tells him to have trust/faith in Him and that God will deal with them in His own time.

 

❤🕊🔥Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear will understand! ❤🕊🔥

 

 

Why was Jesus crucified? One Man Should Die For The People/all Nations, as prophesied by the High Priest Caiaphas.

According to Matthew, Jesus predicted his own death as part of a divine plan to save humanity from sin (As prophesied by Caiaphas the High Priest in John 11:45-57). He explained that he needed to go to Jerusalem, where he would suffer and die at the hands of the law, in order to rise again on the third day. He also said that his death would be a necessary sacrifice to help others.

The High Priests and Pharisees wanted Jesus dead because Jesus was exposing their lies. They were more concerned of losing their high seats they held in Rome rather than leading the Jews to God. (John 11:45-57), because they loved praises from men more than praise from God. (John 12:43)

Notice that Caiaphas was completely ignorant of what he prophesied, and in fact his motives for what he said weren't righteous yet what he prophesied was according to God's will. Caiaphas didn't know/was not aware that he was following God's will.

This also shows that just because something is in God's will doesn't mean that an individual is righteous in carrying it out.

The Gospels portray an indecisive Pilate.
They dragged Jesus before Pilate to be tried for blasphemy—for claiming, they said, to be King of the Jews/God. And they pressured Pilate, the only one with power to impose a death sentence, to call for his crucifixion.

(John 11:45-57) 45 Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him, 46 but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council and said, “What are we to do? For this man performs many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.” 49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all. 50 Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish.” 51 He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, 52 and not for the nation only, but also to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. 53 So from that day on they made plans to put him to death.

54 Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there to the region near the wilderness, to a town called Ephraim, and there he stayed with the disciples.

55 Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves. 56 They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think? That he will not come to the feast at all?” 57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should let them know, so that they might arrest him. (John 11:45-57)

It was the High Priest and Pharisees that wanted Jesus dead, not all Jews since Jesus had many Jews follow his teachings.

Caiaphas saw Jesus as a threat to the existing religious order. He might have believed that if Jesus wasn't restrained or even executed that the Romans might end their relative tolerance of Jewish institutions.


IT IS WRITTEN!

Isaiah 26:3 - Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

(Proverbs 3:5-6) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 16:3 - Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.

God never changes (Mal 3:6), when He wants to call someone, He personally comes to them with a voice, vision or dream.

(Jeremiah 33:3) Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. (Ezekiel 36:27)

(1 Corinthians 2:14) But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your manmade tradition?

But the time will come for many that are still sleeping, when God will cleanse them from their false teachings, will give them a new heart, and put God's Spirit in them so they too can walk in God's statutes, and shall keep God's judgments, and do them. As it is written in (Ezekiel 36:22-28). God will not do this for their own sake, but for God's sake for God's Holy Name! All we can do in the mean time is pray for them for God's Will to be done, in God's own time.


A NEW COVENANT FOR ISRAEL’S LAND AND PEOPLE
"I will put my spirit within you"

"I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake", says the Lord God.

In the words of (Ezekiel 36:22-28) we find, in the one promise, this twofold blessing God bestows through His Spirit very strikinggly set forth. The first is, 'I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean, and I will put a new heart within you and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.' When this has been done, then there is the second blessings, 'I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. "I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake", says the Lord God.

As David's prayer in Psalm 51. First, 'Create in me a clean heart, O God! And renew a right spirit within me;' then, 'Take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.'

(Ezekiel 36:22-28) 22 “Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations to which you came.

23 And I will vindicate the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, and which you have profaned among them. And the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Lord God, when through you I vindicate [to free from allegation or false teachings of mankind] my holiness before their eyes.

24 I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land.

WATER BAPTISM

25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleanness's, and from all your idols I will cleanse you.

HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM

26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

27 And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.

28 You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.

(Isaiah 63:16) "For you are our father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us; you, O Lord, are our father; our Redeemer from of old is your name".

 

Aree the 144,000 in Revelation 14:4 male only?

Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

*** SIGNIFIED means The Book of Revelation is given to John by Christ... in signs.


The Book of Revelation is filled with symbols and images that are meant to be understood symbolically, not literally. The word "signified" in Revelation 1:6, which says that God "signified" the Revelation to John through an angel, is used to reinforce the idea that the book is not to be taken literally. The symbols in Revelation are consistent with the Old Testament and Jewish apocalyptic literature, and are used to represent spiritual experiences and transcendental realities. For example, lions, lambs, beasts, and women are all symbolic references to other realities.

It is said of the 144,000 sons of Israel (Rev 7:4) that they “have not been defiled with women, for they have kept themselves chaste” (Rev 14:4). Therefore, some assume that these 144,000 Jews are only men. But that is not true because “defiled with women” does not refer to literal sexual relationships. Revelation has two women:

The one is the pure woman of Revelation 12 (Rev 12:1), also called, “the bride, the wife of the Lamb” (Rev 21:9; 19:7), or “the holy city, Jerusalem” (Rev 21:10). (Note that the angel told John that he will show Him the bride but then John sees the holy city, implying that the bride and the city are the same thing.)

The other woman is “Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and of the abominations of the earth” (Rev 17:5). She is also a city: “The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth" (Rev 17:18).

Therefore, when it says that the 144,000 have not been defiled with women, it means that they did not participate in false religion. Their worship is pure.

They are symbolically all males because Revelation 7 uses the imaginary of Israel’s army (cf. Num 31:5) to describe the perfection of the end-time remnant of God’s people.

 

TRINITY IS NOT MENTIONED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT

What does God say about adding and removing words from scriptures in Deuteronomy 4:2?

 

“When we add to or subtract from Scripture, we actually replace the word of God. We do not merely stray from it, we leave it all together.” Simply put, Gods' words indicate that when we add to or subtract from Scripture, we actually replace the word of God.

 

Some Bible translators of past centuries were so zealous to find support for their belief in the Trinity in the Scriptures that they literally added it. A case in point is 1 John 5:7. Most Bible commentaries that mention this addition tell us that it is a spurious comment added to the biblical text.  

1 John 5:7, 8 [7] For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.[8] And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

Actually, what happened starting about 200 years after scripture was written. 1 Jo hn 5:7 was first written in Greek as a marginal note about 1000 years after Christ, and only entered the actual Greek text a couple centuries later. The first record of it is, not in Greek, and not written by John, but in Latin, written by the first proponents of Athanasian philosophy (prior to Athanasius). It was never scripture from its earliest beginnings.

1 John 5:7–8 also contains a short clause called the "Johannine Comma". Erasmus did not include the Johannine Comma in his first and second editions of the Greek-Latin New Testament because it was not in his Greek manuscripts.

 

The earliest Greek version of 1 John with the Comma Johanneum is from 1516! The extra line was added to some Latin manuscripts sometime between the 3rd and 6th century and was originally written in Latin. It is also not found in any ancient Syriac or Coptic texts, or the traditional texts of the Ethiopian church.

 

NOTE: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are titles, not names. When you baptize in the name of the Father, the name of the Son, and the name of the Holy Spirit, what is the name of the Holy Spirit? If those 3 are persons then they are not the same person if all 3 have names of their own.

 

(Ephesians 4:6) "One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all."

 

NEW HEAVEN & EARTH

Not all will live in heaven as spirits. God will create a new heaven and a new earth. What will be the purpose of a new earth if all beings will stay in heaven? What Christ actually taught us was bringing heaven/God's heavenly Kingdom to earth, as the example Christ gave us in The Lords’ Prayer… “…let Your Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven!

I have been caught up in the spirit by God Himself, and experienced His loving presence all around me, not through near death experience, and I can tell you that once I experienced being in the presence of God (Unconditional love, unlimited knowledge, and the kind of peace that is not yet experienced on this earth) I did not want to come back to earth. But when God’s Kingdom which is now in heaven, comes to the new earth it will feel like you are in heaven and everyone will experience God's loving presence.

We should test all spirits! Discernment of spirits is a gift from the Holy Spirit that allows people to see things for what they really are, rather than what they appear to be, or what people want or fear them to be. It can also help people recognize when the Holy Spirit is at work. "By their fruit ye shall know them!"

 

WHEN WE DIE, THE SPIRIT IN US GOES BACK TO GOD.
The Spirit in us came from God and goes back to God when we are born again from above!

The spirit that was in Christ went back to God the Father, which it came from (Ecclesiastes 12:7), when Jesus let out his last breath on the cross.


Matthew 14:10, 11 - Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

*** Jesus is saying his spirit in him is the same as the Fathers, and the Fathers spirit is the same spirit that is in him.

Matthew 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

*** Jesus is saying, those that believe in him will do greater works than Jesus, because the spirit that is in us, that comes from the Father above, will remain in us even after Jesus spirit reunites with the Father who is in heaven. As it did when Jesus let out his last breath on the cross when he said "Father, into your hands I command my spirit."

Matthew 14:20 - At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

*** Jesus is saying that the spirit that is in him is the same spirit that is in the Father, the spirit in us is also the same as the spirit that is in Christ, and the spirit that is in Christ is also in us, which is the same spirit that is in the Father.

Matthew 14:23, 24 - Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

*** Jesus is saying that if we love him and keep his teachings the Father will also love us, and God's Spirit that is in Jesus will also be in us. Jesus also is saying, that the words Jesus speaks are not his own words, but the Father's words who send him to speak in God's behalf.

 

1 John 4:1  Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

 

Why don't Christian churches teach you this, but instead twist Jesus words to fit your man made traditions?
No wonder most Jewish people see Jesus as an idol and the New Testament as heresy. I for one, don't blame them.

 

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

 
Here are some more Bible verses that mention testing:
  • James 1:2-3
    This verse says that trials can test faith and produce steadfastness.
  • 1 John 4
    This verse says to test spirits to see if they are from God, as many false prophets exist.
  • 1 Thessalonians 5:21
    Paul tells readers to examine prophecies to see if they are valid, and to welcome them if they pass examination. 
     
Other Bible verses that mention testing include: Proverbs 30:5, Proverbs 17:3, Colossians 2:8, and 1 Peter 1:7.

 

Galatians 1:8, 9 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

 

IN CONCLUSION...

 

Those who become believers and stay faithful to Jesus teachings, during the trial period (Revelation 3:10) [Tribulation/when evil will take over the world], which is in our generation, and also the time when Jesus appears in the clouds with his Saints, will not face the second death, because their spirit will also join with the spirit of those (his saints) who have already been cough up in the clouds with Christ. The spirit in them will be caught up, not their physical bodies.
 
This is why Jesus said in Matthew 24:13 "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved!"
SEE ALSO: Revelation 3:21, 22
 
This means, while our spirit is joined with Christ in the air, our bodies here on earth will go through the tribulation. And if we are prosecuted and die the first death for defending God's Word and by keeping the faith till the end, we will not face the second and last death.
 
You must be born again from above! means that the spirit that was in Christ is now also in you. (John 14:20) "AT THAT DAY you shall know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you."
 
So yes, our physical bodies will be on earth during the tribulation, but the spirit in us will forever be with the Lord Jesus Christ (1 Thessalonians 4:17).
 
And when Christ appears on the Mount of Olives in a physical body (where his feet touches the ground), this will be the time when every eye will see him.
 
This is the time where the gnashing of teeth starts, "The Day of The Lord", when Christ will wipe out all evil from the face of the earth with the brightness of his physical coming.
 
After the earth is cleansed from all evil, then we, who have been faithful and true till the end, will receive a new body and will dwell with Christs in his new kingdom here on earth in the New Jerusalem, that comes down from heaven.
 
(1Thessalonians 4:15-18) For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
