Economic Progress, Righteousness, and The Kingdom of God

"…the contraception mentality is the single deepest issue facing Western society."

-       Fr John Hardon, SJ

-

The title comes from a popular song, which is actually a quote from the bible: "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you."

If you will notice, the title should have been in the reverse I.e. God first and economic progress last. Unfortunately, these days the word: progress, has essentially become more material and self-centered than spiritual and other-centered.  Progress has also become of paramount importance, not only in the economic but in the other spheres of life.

This is because in an ego-centered age, the "I" or the "ego" as Freud would call it, comes first before anything and anyone else like God and other people.

But is there really "progress" in today's world?

In Europe, major economic players before like Greece and Portugal have already declared bankruptcy and been given aid. Spain is having its critical unemployment problems especially among the youth sector and may probably be the next one to fall.

I am not familiar with Greece and Portugal. But I am certain that western thought started in Greece, like the principles of democracy for example. And Portugal used to be a world power in the early 16th century. In other words, these countries used to be powerful in the broadest and deepest sense of the word.

Although Spain's Glory as an imperial might was short lived, the Spaniards were best known for their propagation of the Catholic Christian faith in Latin America and Asia. In fact, the Catholic Spanish influence in the Philippines lasted for centuries until Hollywood took over and handled the reins.

But where have all the Catholic Spaniards gone? I am saying this because Spain is one of the western countries where abortion has been legalized and where the use of contraceptives has become a way of life. And the same thing can be said with the other European countries - plus the United States of America.

The 64 dollar question is therefore posed: could there be a relationship between contraceptives and progress? Or better yet, how does a contraceptive mentality affect economic progress?

First of all, a contraceptive mentality is an offshoot of a mentality that focuses "only" on the "self". What is good or bad for me is what matters.  How about God? Sadly, He is out of the equation. But come to think of it, it used to be when empires and kingdoms in Europe sought the guidance of the divine.

In France for example, Joan of Arc – both a French saint and a hero, epitomized this divine and monarchial relationship. Just recently, even the French leader Nicolas Sarkosy openly prided about the French Catholic tradition. And by all means, it was a commendable act of his because there is wisdom in taking stock of one's historical roots, lest one be condemned to repeat it, for better or for worse says the philosopher Santayana.

 

 

Although sometimes it is prudent not to compare, there are times too when we cannot help but compare, especially civilizations that existed then and now.

Going back to the Spaniards - the closest to the Filipino culture, a couple of centuries ago, they came to our shores majestically clad with the cross on one hand and the sword on the other. Now, at their own shores, nudist camps abound; most profess to be Catholics but are not practicing; and worst most of its citizens are unemployed.

I was just thinking, were the Spaniards better off before than they are now?  They used to conquer worlds far and wide in the name of the cross and true civilization. Now, they could not even conquer their own selves and have become entangled with the culture of death via the countless abortions they have probably performed.

Moreover, in the U.S. lawmakers have defended abortion laws like the Rowe vs. Wade that has made possible the contraceptive way of life in the name of "human rights". But is this the same spirit that permeated the American society before when they initially proclaimed the inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?

The gallant efforts of the American liberators during two world wars are a living testimony to the true ideals of the americans of yore. In fact these years were even called the glorious years of America.

Today, a single rogue named Bin Laden who has wreaked unimaginable havoc on American soil was only captured after almost a decade with no hint whatsoever on when the war on terror will come to an end.

Sometimes we wonder if the revelry made in New York after the death of Bin Laden was the same as the huge celebrations of the common folks in France when it was liberated by the Americans in 1945.  Before, people rejoiced because an evil German Reich has been defeated. Today an unarmed Islamic rebel has been shot in the face and there is joy in the land? Was there ever a defining victory in the death of Bin laden in the first place?

President Obama said that justice has been served to the thousands who died during 9/11 terror attack. But did he ever think about the millions of babies who have died because of the terror that these unborn and innocent Americans beings-in-the-womb have suffered and even coming from their very own mothers/fathers - whose acts are borne of a contraceptive mentality that is neither glorious nor heroic?

Economically, I doubt if the U.S. and the likes with a pro death/contraceptive/ ego-based mentality can ever make an authentic progressive rebound.

Unless people return to their primordial and constitutional faith in God and righteousness, there will never be any progress. Not for the U.S. Not for mankind.

Before God can even bless America, America must first re-turn to God.

Letter to Burt G., a new ager, author of Quantum Jumping (exploring Parallel Universes) on Spiritual Deception

Letter to Burt, a new ager, promoter of Quantum Jumping, exploring Parallel Universes on SPIRITUAL DECEPTION   

I've got a story for you.  On the subject of doppelgangers;  there are some in THIS universe. I googled my name and found 2 people with the same exact spelling in this country. One is an accomplished singer and the other is an accomplished writer.  I am a musician/composer/singer and writer too.  Isn't that strange?

You say exploring parallel universes gave you new talents. You met doppelgangers who had other talents and they shared them with you.  I can tell you something else.  GOD inspires us to do new things and equips us to do it.  I became a Christian 20 years ago.  I am Jewish with a common Jewish name like yourself.  Within 2 years of my new beliefs, one day, out of the blue, I had an inspiration to write down ideas for teaching.

Prior to this, I had no interest or training for teaching; my background was a BA in music, and a Masters in Jazz composition; I had produced and recorded my own music with my own band on records. 

I wrote down the ideas for teaching, showed them to a Christian brother of mine who was discipling me in the bible, who was a teacher himself, and he said they were good.  He recommended I go into teaching as a substitute, which I did.  I did it for several years, and I was good at it. It was like a new gift/talent that God had given me, after I became a Christian. 

 When I first started, it seemed like a weird diversion from my music; i was wondering about it. I remember driving to a school, praying, "God if this is from you, let me know" and IMMEDIATELY the HOLY SPIRIT fell on me with power. SO I KNEW God was behind this new direction in my life, and HE was the one who had equipped me for it by inspiring me to write down the ideas about it. 

It became evident WHY;  as a musician, I had a ministry to WARN the kids about all the demonic music they were listening to - the heavy metal, rap etc that was making them mentally ill. As a professional musician, I had credibility and they listened to me,  I was talking to them from the point of view of a Christian, saying that the bible warns about this music and the music itself SAYS it is demonic, a lot it, and one should take it seriously, not as a joke. This got them thinking and asking questions about the wisdom of listening to the stuff.  It was very effective.  So this is my testimony about how a relationship with GOD can inspire us and equip us in new directions, without consulting alternate universes. 

Another example of a new talent was a singing voice God gave me after I became a Christian. I wrote music all my life; I had singers in my band who sang my songs; I had no voice before getting saved.  A Christian told me that if I got rid of  all my new age books I would be singing better; as I got rid of them my chest opened up and my singing improved; those books were openings for demonic oppression from lying spirits and other oppressive spirits. I also went thru my records; I broke a Grateful Dead record praying  "I renounce all lying spirits  around me from having listened to this; as it broke, something palpable lifted off my chest and my voice got louder. ch 7 of my free  book on my website 1prophetspeaks.com, talks about this; Manual for Transformational Healing.

I  studied quantum  physics  when I was an undergraduate at BROWN  U. and  used to read arcane books on cosmologies;  I studied and practiced TM and read many new age books for about l0 years before becoming a Christian. 

  I well understand the concept of alternate universes.  There are probably many dimensions and other dimensional beings that we may not be able to access; all of this is possible. As far as multiple alternate universes, it doesn't jibe with the idea of living on this earth and then going to heaven or hell, of which I have heard many testimonies. 

It is like reincarnation; it makes sense and is intellectually appealing, but that doesn't make it TRUE.  I say this because the  bible explicitly says "it is appointed to man once to die and then judgment". (Hebrews If that is true, then reincarnation is not. Unless you say, well people have karma, and those who ACCEPT  Jesus break their KARMA AND STOP REINCARNATING AND GO TO HEAVEN, which is really a better deal than reincarnation, then. So I would choose God/Jesus over reincarnation. 

  I read Autobiography of a Yogi by Yogananda. I prayed to God afterward, "God could reincarnation be true?" You know what He said back  to me, "Is your faith so weak?" 

 I'll tell you something; my experience has been that God frequently answers us in questions. 

This same question had come up before for me. A couple years ago I had picked up a Hindu book on reincarnation that I was curious about. I was halfway through it, when a crippled man hobbled by, back and forth, looking right at me, as if to say, "Well, are you going to pray for me to be healed?"

 As I was considering it, God said to me, "throw it". I knew he meant the book. He was saying "if you want authority from God/Jesus to heal him, throw away the lies. " Well, I argued with God and said "but I want to finish the book first"  Which I did, and then threw it away, and the man kept showing up around me, and I eventually spoke with him about God and being healed.

God was probably testing my obedience. If I had thrown the book the first time He told me, the spirit would have moved on me with power and the man would have been healed. Very often it is following obedience that the Spirit comes with power. I have experienced this at other times.

 By the way, I believe in the bible for the reason that I have experienced years of worshipping God/Jesus and feeling the Presence of God all over me, as I did it. I spent 2 years living in a church and playing the piano and worshipping alone at night. During that time, God healed me and gave me a loud singing voice I did not have before.

I tested my faith in Jesus once, after a rabbi challenged me,  saying "you're wrong about Jesus being the messiah; God answers your prayers because you're a Jew"  so  I only prayed to  "ADONAI, the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob", and as I felt the presence of God, HE spoke to me repeatedly for 2 weeks, saying 2 things to me over and over;  DONT DENY THE NAME OF MY SON and MY WORD IS TRUE.  I realized later, it wasn't just a correction, it was a REBUKE! For having doubted! That message is why I believe in the Word, the bible. It is also scriptural; Jesus said "your word is truth".

THAT is my personal experience/revelation as to WHY I believe; the truth of Jesus being the savior and the bible being true. Otherwise, It would only be another IDEA and there is no way to KNOW which idea is right and which is wrong. It goes on and on. Our minds can raise the questions ad nauseum, but it is only our SPIRIT in our HEART that can bear WITNESS to the TRUTH, whatever that is.  

Having studied occult things as well as yourself; a warning:  doing so and having that material around can open a person to LYING spirits that are not of God and are NOT speaking the truth, at least, not about everything. Removing that material takes away their authority to talk to our minds.

 Spirits talk to all of us in our thoughts, both God and the devil and all the unclean spirits that come from the devil and not God. The word Inspiration means "a spirit goes into it" so all thoughts come to us from the spiritual realm. 

 A person who has studied the occult needs to REPENT of it and Renounce it, to be delivered of the lying spirits around them from having done so. 

 Having used any occult paraphernalia like Ouija boards or tarot cards or consulted with psychics requires the same thing: they bring curses on those who use them. It says in Deut 18 that divination is an abomination to God. The passage says:

When thou art come into the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.  There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or daughter to pass through the fire or that useth divination, or an observer of times or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer, For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord.     Deut 18:9-11 

"Observers of times" refers to astrology.

"Charmers and enchanters" would refer to hypnosis. Hypnosis is dangerous because it can open one up to demonic spirits.  These are lying spirits. People who get hypnotized to retrieve memories run the risk of opening up to lying spirits implanting false memories.

New age practices can bring curses on a person.  Since God says these things are an abomination (Deut 18) He considers it sin, disobedience.  It says in Deut 28 that there will be blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience.   Sin can open one up to demonic attack, which can cause illness, mental or physical. 

I knew someone who did astrology charts. His son had MS.  This was a  curse working down the generations. Such curses can only be broken by renouncing the sin or the sins of our ancestors, and praying the blood of Jesus over ourselves. It is Jesus ‘  blood that was the atonement for our sins, and it washes away the curses that sin invokes.

Freemasonry is devil worship at the highest level.  I have seen the handbook written for the Scottish Rite 32 and 33 level. It was written by Albert Pike, a sata—ist.  He says "We worship the luciferian principle, but we don't tell the lower levels this." It is based on deception.  Consequently, there are curses on the people involved in it, and it can affect their families. I knew some masons whose children got very sick and died. There is a spirit of dea-   in masonry; they go thru rituals of climbing into coffins, invoking it.

The prophet Hosea said "my people suffer for lack of knowledge".  He meant lack of knowledge of God. If we don't know God and sin, it can open us to curses.

 

New Age  books don't bring mental peace

My l0 years of experience reading New age books showed me something else. It doesn't bring mental peace.  It raises questions which lead to more questions.   Part of the reason for this is that all the books are inspired by many spirits, lying spirits which can lead a person onto false paths.  And those spirits around those books will be around the person who has them and reads them, causing mental oppression.  This goes away when one removes the books. I found this out by getting rid of  them.

When I read the bible, I found more peace.  God's spirit is on the bible and we feel it when we read it. Jesus said "MY PEACE I GIVE TO YOU, NOT AS THE WORLD GIVETH GIVE I TO YOU. " John 14:26.

When we read the bible or listen to worship music that invoke's God's spirit, we can feel his peace.

An ex. Of anointed worship is HOLY AND ANNOINTED ONE by Brian Doerksen, a composer with the Vineyard Christian Fellowship. You can listen to it on youtube.  If you google Vineyard Music on youtube you can listen to their music. It is used by many churches. Their church is a charismatic church. Their website sells their music too.

My website has original worship music at 1prophetspeaks. I invite you to go to my website 1prophetspeaks.com and read my prophetic writings which are all free. My book MANUAL FOR TRANSFORMATIONAL HEALING-God's Answer to Psychiatry was a prophetic book God had me write exposing the atheism of the mental health system, and how to be healed by prayer/worship in Jesus name of mental and physical illnesses (all of which are caused by spirits and can be rebuked in Jesus name). I am speaking from experience. I have been healed several times of illnesses this way. CHap. 7 of the book has a checklist of what to assess to remove openings for lying spirits: all drugs are openings, including caffeine, nicotine, pot, alcohol, cocaine, lsd, etc. and all psych meds; books that lie about the bible, new age occult books, bad music, art, symbols, occult objects, and unrepentant sin make one open to demonic oppression which can attack our thoughts emotions or bodies.  Ch. 4 talks about new age practices.

 

Truth should be free

Jesus said "freely ye are given, freely ye shall give."  God told me to put my book for FREE on the web.  I came out of the new age when the intuition came to me one day; if this is truth, it should be free. I believe that was from God.  There is a story in the new testament where Simon the sorcerer offers to pay for the Holy spirit, so he can heal others too, and Jesus' followers rebuke him for it.  So they were saying that the Holy Spirit, the spirit of truth, can't be bought or sold.   so what is all this marketing in the new age?  What are they selling?  Is it truth or lies?

There was a Christian pastor of a church in Toronto (known then as the Toronto Vineyard) that started to experience a powerful revival. (It became known as the "Toronto Blessing". He wrote in a book that God said to him "don't market this."  I  believe Christian books should be "sold" for donations, not set prices; and given away for free to those who need it.

 

 While your concept of Parallel Universes  is intriguing intellectually I have not gotten a "witness" from God that it is true. Would a person in multiple universes have multiple souls, some saved, some not?  May be one could be Jewish, one Christian, one Hindu, one alien and so on; endless; very strange.

Potentially every little decision could split us into different realities; not just the big decisions. So it would be exponential, wouldn't it? we would have thousands of doppelgangers, or maybe they are just ""potential" somethings as opposed to being as "fixed" as the universe in which we now live.  

Well, a similar concept is when prophets predict something will happen, but people do something to change it. God used prophets to warn people of disasters, but they repented so it didn't happen. The story of Jonah is one example. So having foreknowledge of alternate realities is not foreign to a biblical worldview.

I know this concept of parallel universes has been around. I remember seeing an episode of "Star Trek" where Whoopi Goldberg is some kind of psychic, and is saying to someone "we're on the wrong timeline. This is not supposed to happen."

The  bible tells us that the devil himself can masquerade as an angel of light. So demons can take any form, including of those we love, or maybe even ourselves, as a dopelganger. Why not?  So it could be a big deception.I have heard stories of Christians whose deceased loved ones appeared to them, and they said "I don't believe you are really so and so" and suddenly the being changed form into a demon.

The new age is full of deceptions. they say sin is not real and hell is not real. It is a lie. They might say, "well, if you believe in it, you might end up there, but if you don't you won't. Interesting possibility, but that could still be a lie, AND A VERY DANGEROUS ONE, IF IT IS.

There was a man named Randall Baer who was an expert on crystals. One day, God somehow revealed to him that the new age light was deception, that there was a darkness behind it. He became a Christian as a result. Then he went to a big new age conference to warn people about the deception. The demons behind it must not have liked that; he was found dead after the conference, his car having driven over a cliff.

 Yogananda's book AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A YOGI is fascinating.  He describes gurus who float to the ceiling, go into trances and leave their bodies going to the astral realm. Some of them don't need to eat food, some don't need to sleep. He also mentions Christians mystics who do the same thing.  Some Christians claim that those who float, do so by the power of demons.

 In the movie "the Exorcist" the possessed girl levitates. 

 On a related point, when I was a child, I used to have frightening experiences of floating out of my body, when it was completely dark in the room. I stopped this by putting a light on. I slept with the lights on my entire life, because of this. My physical body wasn't floating; my spirit was leaving my body, I think.

Yogananda says "Kriya yoga'  is "salvation thru self-effort". That is, thru meditation/yoga, they work their way into heaven.  You know what? Christianity offers a much better deal. Instead of all that work, you accept Jesus being the atonement for your sin, and you are justified by God because of Jesus' sacrifice, not your own work. That gets you a ticket to heaven; faith, not works. A lot cleaner, more assured. 

 The Jews think that if their good works outweigh their bad deeds, they will be assured a place in the world to come, so they do mitzvahs. But the Jewish prophets predicted a savior, and it was Jesus, whose Hebrew name YESHUA means Salvation. They sacrificed animals for sin offerings; a foreshadowing of Jesus' sacrifice once and for all for all mankind as a sin offering. Same idea. Came right out of its Jewish roots. And Jesus was only sent by God to the Jews, not the gentiles. So the God of the Jews must have intended for Jews to accept him, not only the gentiles, to whom he was also given, later. 

Isaiah 53 which is not read in the liturgy in temples is obviously describing Jesus; as an atonement for sin. It says "for the sins of my people he was stricken. My righteous servant shall justify many, for he shall bear their sins". 

How clear it is! They skip  it in shul precisely because it IS clear and would challenge the rabbinical party line about Jesus. This is lying by omission, for 2000 years. That's a pretty big sin; and the anti-semitism that has gone on for 2000 years has a lot to do with the curse spoken by the rabbis of Jesus time who said "let his blood be on us and our children". (this is quoted in the Gospels. God told me "my word is true, so it is not an anti-semitic lie put into the New Testament; it is the truth). It was the rabbis who wanted him crucified, and they spoke that curse on the entire Jewish people. That is the reason for the anti-semitism. The curse is broken individually when Jesus' blood is prayed over people to break it. His blood breaks all curses.

I urge you as a spiritually minded Jew to seriously consider Jesus as savior. Repent of your sins, and ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit which is what guarantees salvation.  And ignore the rabbis who say a person can't be a Jew and believe in Jesus. That is nonsense. Jesus was a Jew; Paul said "salvation is of the Jews"   Through Jesus, the Jewish messiah.   Christianity is really a Jewish sect, the natural outgrowth of the biblical Judaism. It is closer to ancient Judaism than modern Judaism is. Rabbis have said this, and they are speaking the truth.  The torah talked about animal sacrifices for sin; the new testament talks about the sacrifice of Jesus for sin; rabbinic Judaism ignores the whole issue, for 2000 years.

The temple where they did sacrifices was destroyed in 70 A.D..  WHY?  BECAUSE THAT TIME WAS OVER. GOD ALLOWED THE TEMPLE TO BE DESTROYED BECAUSE HE HAD ALREADY SENT JESUS AS THE FINAL SACRIFICE. 

 Otherwise, if sacrifice was so important, why would God allow it to stop?  The modern Jews have forgotten that Jews used to sacrifice animals, because it is not part of modern Judaism. When I remembered that they used to do it, I had an epiphany; Jesus made total sense. Without that historical connection, it might make no sense to a Jew; it might sound like pagans sacrificing to demons. But in truth  it comes out of historical torah Judaism. That is what Leviticus is all about.  

 Jeremiah 31:31 prophesied "I will make a new covenant, not like the one I made when I took them out of Egypt, which THEY BRAKE (the mosaic covenant)... and I will forgive their sins.:    This scripture came to me IN A DREAM when I asked God if it was true Jesus is the messiah.    The bible tells us that God will talk to us in dreams  and visions.

The prophet Joel says in the end times  God says "I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions"  Joel 2:28

 

It is important to know the truth because time is short. Jesus is going to return soon; judgment is coming to the earth. Tribulation is coming and God is going to rapture his church to be with Him in Heaven  before the tribulation, to protect his people from the evil to come. If this is true, we need to know and act accordingly.  I am persuaded that these things are true;  I urge you to consider them. 

You need to ask God to reveal any deception to you.

Just because we can imagine something, does that mean the universe works that way? Or just for us even? Not necessarily.  

The bible says to "cast down  imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God" 11 Corinthians 10:5.   By praying this prayer in Jesus name, we protect ourselves against spiritual deception.

What about time travel?  A person could go back in time and change history. I have thought about that. Maybe the holocaust deniers are vibing into an alternate reality where someone went back in time, warned the Jews, and they all went to Israel instead of dying in the camps, so there was no holocaust. I prayed about it and asked God if this could happen. But you know what? I did not get a feeling that that is the way to handle that. 

Instead, I got a feeling that it happened, all the unsaved holocaust Jews are in purgatory, and God wants people to pray them out of there. He started by telling me to pray my mother out of there which I did l0 years ago.  I prayed in tongues until the Holy Spirit told me "it is accomplished".  She had died 30 years ago.  Shortly after this happened, she appeared to me in a dream and spoke to me, the first time she did in 30 years. She said "I never really died". 

 

Praying in tongues is something Pentacostal Christians do. It is also called "praying in the spirit". It is something all Christians need to do and should ask God to give to them after they have accepted Jesus as savior, repented of their sins and asked to be filled with the Holy Spirit. It is praying by the direction of the Holy Spirit.

It is important to repent of and renounce all involvement with the occult, since dabbling in it can open one up to demonic spirits, some of which can also pray in tongues. There  are demonic counterfeits of the spirit of God. 

One also needs to avoid drugs since they are openings for unclean spirits which can contaminate the Holy Spirit; this includes caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, pot, lsd, etc and all psych meds.  The Holy Spirit has a presence that is gentle, Holy, clean. Its presence brings joy, peace, love. Demonic spirits would not, though they can be subtle. The new testament talks about a gift of discernment of spirits; asking for this gift will  help one know the difference. 

I remember having an experience once where some Pentacostal friends were praying in tongues, having  a conversation in tongues. There was a glow on their face and joy that was unmistakably a Holy presence, the Holy Spirit of God.  

I also noticed this same presence at a house church of the Vineyard Christian Fellowship, when they were worshipping in song. There was a glow on their faces and expression of joy, and I felt a spirit of love flooding through me, making me feel like hugging people I didn't know. That is the spirit of God associated with His son, Jesus.

The bible says "whosoever calls on the name of the lord will be saved" Romans 10:13

Jesus' Hebrew name is YESHUA which means Salvation.

"For God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son that whosoever believeth on him would not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16

 

The bible says to worship God in spirit and truth.

"God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and truth" John 4:24

Jesus said "ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews." John 4:22     Here Jesus is talking to a Samaritan woman; and she says:

"I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things." John 4:25 

And  Jesus replies: "I that speak unto thee am he." John 4:26  

So he unequivocally said he was the Messiah.

Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life.  Nobody comes to the Father but by me." John 14:6.

And "The Truth shall make you free". John 8:32

 He meant the truth about Himself, not all random truth, like 2 plus 2 is 4.  Knowing the "truth" about whether someone was abused as a child does not necessarily set them free. Focusing on negative truths from one's past does not bring healing or freedom. Amnesia can be a gift from god to relieve us from painful memories.

Jesus said to God while praying to God in John 17:  "Sanctify them through they truth: thy word is Truth" John 17:17  

God confirmed this to me when I was re-assessing my belief in Jesus. A rabbi had challenged me, saying "you're wrong about Jesus being the messiah" God answers your prayer because you're a Jew.  I was living in a church and playing the piano and worshipping at nite, so I went back to my sanctuary and only sang to "Adonai, God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob" to test it.  As I felt the power of God on me, the same spirit as when I had called on Jesus too, I heard God say to me, repeatedly, for two weeks, two things: 

 DON'T DENY THE NAME OF MY SON And  MY WORD IS TRUE.

So he was confirming that Jesus is the Savior, the Son of God, and the bible is true, inspired by God. That's why I trust it.    However, I trust the King James version. The more modern translations like the NIV, NRSV and others  have been tampered with; they leave out scriptures and pieces of scriptures and change a lot of words. They lack spiritual authority to pray against darkness.

When we acknowledge the Truth of who Jesus is, the messiah, the son of God, we are worshipping the way God wants us to, and He blesses us with His presence.  People who deny the word of God as being true grieve the spirit of God and he does not pour out his spirit in their churches or synagogues or homes.  Preachers who say the word of GOD is not literal but all metaphorical, are lying about the word and spirit of God, and lack authority to do miracles and healings and get prayers answered. Jesus told his followers to "preach the gospel, heal the sick, cast out demons, raise the dead". 

Once in my house, when I had many new age books and philosophy and science books, a pentecostal Christian friend came and said she saw a vision of Jesus in the room, looking away from us. I asked what  she thought that meant, and she said "he doesn't feel comfortable here. Would you feel comfortable around books with lies about you?"    This made intuitive sense to me.  She and others told me to remove the books that discredited the bible or contradicted it. 

As I did so, several things happened. Demonic oppression that was around me left.  

When I got rid of books on psychotherapy, including ones by Freud, an atheist, I felt something around my head go away.  These were lying spirits, which don't bring mental peace.

God's peace came to my apartment. His spirit was dwelling there because there was nothing that grieved him there.  In the Old Testament GOD REMOVED HIS SPIRIT when they brought idols in. The first commandment says "Thou shalt have no other gods before me"

Another pentacostal friend had told me "if you get rid of the books, you will be singing better".  I had had no singing voice because I was a shallow breather, having grown up in a house where someone smoked.  As I got rid of the books, oppression lifted off my chest; God healed me and I developed a loud singing voice.  

 

In Deuteronomy  God says "if you seek me with all your heart and soul and mind you will find me."  

We find the truth by praying to God and listening to His voice speaking to us, and by reading His word, wherein lies truth. 

Because all books invoke whatever spirit inspired them, the BIBLE is particularly powerful this way in evoking the Holy Spirit. Inspiration means "A spirit goes into it" so the HOLY SPIRIT DWELLS in the written word. As we read it, it FEEDS our Spirit with God's Spirit. That builds our faith, fills us with peace and love.

Reading the bible renews our mind to align with God's thoughts as well.  "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind."Romans 12:2

A good prayer to pray is "God let your thoughts be my thoughts".

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"  Philippians 4:13 is a powerful scripture that transforms people. Confessing it builds faith and empowers us.

Jesus' name has spiritual power and God's written word also has spiritual power. When we read it, we are abiding in God's presence. When we speak it in prayer, it is a weapon spiritually to fight darkness and establish truth.  But be careful not to speak the curses in it; they also have power to invoke what they are describing. To prophesy means TO SPEAK INTO EXISTENCE.  God's word has this prophetic power when spoken. So do all our words. As it says in Joel that in the end days "I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, and your sons and daughters will prophesy".  So all of our words have the capability of becoming self-fulfilling prophecies. Proverbs warns us that "death and life is in the tongue".   My chapter The Power of Words in my book Manual for Transformational Healing talks about this.

When you read the bible you can ask God to give you a witness of his spirit that it is true. There are different manifestations of the Holy Spirit's presence. You can feel His peace, a tingly energy briefly falling, warmth in the chest, or reactions like crying when reading certain scriptures. This is a recognition from deep in one's spirit that something is true.  

The same is true of hearing God speak to us. If we ask for a witness of his spirit that it is Him talking, he can do it.

It is more common to feel an inner witness of warmth in the chest once a person has been BORN AGAIN  which is to be filled with the Holy Spirit.  Also, once that happens, a person can get a negative witness when something grieves the Spirit of God, which manifests as pain in the chest.  After I got filled with the Holy Spirit, I could no longer tolerate listening to dirty jokes; it would give me chest pain. That is how I knew I had received the Holy Spirit; prior to that, it hadn't bothered me particularly.

 

 It is important to pray in an environment that is clean spiritually to avoid spiritual contamination; remove new age or occult books, don't pray near law books, philosphy, psychology, etc. Books are openings for whatever spirit inspired them.  The same is true for music, art.  Symbols like pentagrams, peace signs, Jewish stars invoke spirits that are not from God.

 Peace signs are a sign used deceptively by the devil to get authority over people; by circulating it with the hippy generation he was more able to seduce them with drugs and sex. 

Jewish stars come historically from Egypt, where they were associated with a false god. The Jewish prophet Amos was used by God to rebuke the Jews for it, calling it  "the star of your god". Its use as a jewish symbol has contaminated judaism and brought curses on the jews. It is occult.  The biblical symbol for the Jews was the menorah. Israel should have used that on their flag.

Chapter 7 of my free book Manual for Transformational Healing talks more about assessing one's environment for openings for demonic spirits.  Chapter 4 is on the New Age. It is on my website 1prophetspeaks

Having music or art that is inspired by demonic spirits gives authority for those spirits to be around the place and person there. And listening to the music transmits the spirits that were on the artist who recorded it.   Since drugs are openings for lying spirits, music recorded by people using drugs can transmit lying spirits or other spirits.  The Grateful Dead used pot; There was a song that said "a friend of the devil is a friend of mine". When I looked at that, I thought "well that is a lying spirit and I don't agree with it".  So I felt led to do an experiment. I broke the record. As I did it, I prayed "in the name of jesus, I renounce all lying spirits that have been around me from listening to this".  As I did it, Something palpable jumped off my chest. My chest opened up and I was able to sing more loudly.  I think the lyric was hinting at what was around them because of the drugs.

All heavy metal music which worships the devil invokes that spirit.  And a lot of that music has curses placed on it by witches, specifically to invoke demonic spirits on the listener.

I also felt led to get rid of a lot of music that was not inspired by God; my record collection. I  prayed for God to give me discernment of what spirits were around various records.  I felt something on the front of my forehead when I listened to a record by Chick Corea, a scientologist. It was being transmitted through his music because of the false philosophy he is into, and the accompanying spirits were on his music.  

New age music is played by people who are into all kinds of false ideas; hence those spirits will be transmitted through their music. One should get rid of it.

The bible says "God inhabits the praises of His people". So HIS spirit comes when we worship him. The Vineyard music, which is used by many churches, invokes God's spirit in a powerful way because it sings TO God and not About God. When you directly address someone, they turn to you. The experience is more intimate than just singing about them. Praise music is singing about God. Worship music is singing directly TO God.  A lot of the old time hymns were praise, not worship. Worship music has more "anointing" or presence of God's spirit.

You can listen to worship music by the Vineyard on youtube under Vineyard Music. One song I recommend is HOLY AND ANNOINTED ONE by Brian Doerksen, a Vineyard writer. They were singing this song 20 years ago at this house church I was at.  My website 1prophetspeaks.com also has original worship music that I have recorded. There is a song entitled "Glorify Your Name". I sing in tongues on the recording.

When we sing or say the name JESUS it invokes His spirit, which is peace and love. If we say the name of the devil or demons, we invoke their spirits.  That is why I do not write the full name of the devil or of diseases. Diseases are all caused by spirits that have those "assignments"; the name of the disease can invoke the spirit and its disease, either spoken or written. All negative mental states are caused by such spirits. Hence it is not good to write them out, since that can invoke them. I use dashes when writing them, like can--- (a deadly disease).  I have learned this by observation. When I wrote out names of negative conditions and gave them to someone, I noticed that they got attacked by that condition. 

I listened to a preacher once talking about a negative spirit, and it was being invoked onto the congregation; the person with me was obviously affected by it.  This was unintentional, yet it operates this way anyway.   People sometimes say things and say "well God knows what I mean", not understanding that irrespective of intent, words have all kinds of prophetic power to invoke whatever they are talking about.   I once had a friend who said "when words come out of your mouth, it is as if they are alive" He was speaking the truth. The bible says that God SPOKE everything into existence. And Jesus was the WORD. 

The first chapter of the gospel of John explains the divinity of Jesus:

In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God and the word was God. John 1:1

And the word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his Glory as of the only begotten of the father, full of grace and truth. 1;14

The law came by Moses, but grace and truth come by Jesus Christ 1:17

So Jesus was the Word become flesh. This is why when He spoke, he spoke from the Spirit of God. He said that he only said what the Father gave him to say.

The bible says "if any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God". This means it is God's will for us to only speak what is coming from HIM not other spirits. We need to be abiding in His spirit and filled with His spirit to do this.

There is more about the power of words to curse and  bless in an article "THE POWER OF WORDS" under articles on my website 1prophetspeaks.com.

On New Age Deceptions about God

 

The bible warns that some will come and preach a "different Jesus". That's why there are so many pseudo-christian cults.  There are also all kinds of spiritual philosophies that are inspired by lying spirits. They are from counterfeit spirits. 

 

There are many channeled books that claim to be God Talking or Jesus talking, but they are lying. One of the hallmarks is that they say the bible is not true, or they contradict it.  Someone can hear  a voice talk to them that says it is Jesus, but is a lying spirit.   Demons lie, because they are liars; they follow the Devil and He is the father of lies.

 

If someone is born again, filled with the Holy spirit, they will have more discernment, they will be able to get an inner witness that this is not from God.

 

There is also a test given in the  bible to test the spirits;    It is to ask the spirit if it confesses that Jesus came in the flesh. It says every spirit that confesses that Jesus came in the flesh is of God, a spirit that confesses not that Jesus came in the flesh is of the anti-christ.  1John 4:2. 

 

I prayed for the gift of discerning of spirits. It is a gift in the new testament. It helps someone know what is of God and what is not, and what spirit something is.

 

 

On Hearing God and Feeling God

 

We can HEAR God speak to us. He speaks to everyone in our thoughts.

The word inspiration means "a spirit goes into it". All thoughts come into our heads from the spiritual realm, from God and the devil, according to the bible (James 3).It says there is "wisdom from above and wisdom from below".

Jesus said "my sheep hear my voice". John 10:27 so it is normal Christian theology to hear from God.

Sometimes God's voice sounds audible. It is a quiet voice, it does not scream or harangue or condemn or accuse or mock; demons do that.

God often speaks in questions, getting us to probe our hearts or motives.

God often speaks in one or two words, inducing us to search scriptures with these words, to get a clearer idea of what he is conveying. A concordance is very useful because it has a list of words and where they occur in scripture; to help us find the intended scripture. Many bibles have a concordance in the back. You can do a word search on the computer to find every scripture with a certain word in a bible program.

God often speaks from scripture; that is how we can recognize that it is his voice speaking to us. That is why it is important to read and know his word; so we are familiar with it and hence can recognize his voice. Jesus said

"The Holy Spirit will bring to remembrance all that I have taught you"John 14:26

We can feel God's peace as he speaks to us, as a confirmation that it is from God.

Jesus said "My peace I give to you, not as the world gives, give I to you".John 14:27

We can FEEL the Holy Spirit's presence.

It can be fleeting, or last longer. It can be a tingly energy on our heads, or goosebumps, or heat flooding through our heart or love flooding through us, often during worship. When it is fleeting, that is what is called as "getting a witness of the Holy Spirit". It is there as an indicator that something that was said is true or is of God, or that God is confirming a statement or empowering a prayer one just prayed.

Reading God's Word Brings His Presence

 

God's spirit dwells in his word.  The gospel of John says "In the beginning was the Word and the word was with God and the word was god" John 1:1   So God's word is literally a part of God. Hence we EXPERIENCE GOD Presence when we read his word.

 

He says "Abide in me and I in you" John 15:4            which means that if we read his word we are abiding in His presence, and His presence will be in us.

 

"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you." John 15:7

 

We can abide in him by listening to worship music; his spirit surrounds us as we listen or sing

 

We also abide in Him by praying; as we pray, we invoke his spirit and it fills us and strengthens us.

 

An important thing to consider is this:  We need to be reading Good translations of the Bible.  The KING JAMES is Good.    The more modern translations like the NIV, (the most common translation)  NRSV and others are corrupted; they leave out scriptures and pieces of scriptures, and change a lot of important words. Consequently, they LACK authority. Which means, GOD"S SPIRIT may NOT be on them!   There are other spirits instead.  This explains why a lot of people read a bible and DON"T have the experience they need to have, of feeling God's peace  and spirit as a witness to it.  Corrupting God's word GRIEVES HIS SPIRIT and drives him away.  When churches deny the truth of God's word, like saying it is NOT literally true, they grieve the Spirit and He is not there; hence they do NOT see evidence of his power in those places.   It is where people respect God's word and affirm it that He moves with Power and answers prayers and does Miracles.   The liberal churches have this problems; they compromise God's word and lack authority and are dry. There is no outpouring of his spirit there.  

 

 Pentecostal and charismatic churches, which believe in the whole bible and its power, experience evidence of His spirit and power. They believe in tongues and healings, and they occur in those churches.  

 

The bible says to Avoid those that have a form of godliness but deny the power thereof.  Churches that say tongues and healings and prophecy are not for today, but only happened in ancient times, are denying God's word and not speaking the truth.

 

I read a tract talking about the different translations. It said that the men who were responsible for the modern ones, the NIV, NRSV and others, lost their voices. This was judgment from God for tampering with His word.

 

When you get a bible get one with Jesus' words in RED.  This is very effective in experiencing HIS POWER. Jesus only spoke what He heard the Father say, so  what came out of His mouth was from God's mouth.

 

How do we know Jesus really said these things?    He send He would send the HOLY SPIRIT, the Comforter, which would remind the disciples  of his words.    

 

"The Comforter  which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you ALL THINGS, AND BRING ALL THINGS TO REMEMBRANCE WHATSOEVER I HAVE SAID UNTO YOU." John 14:26

And the Holy Spirit brings reminds US of the words we have read in the bible and heard from the Holy Spirit.

 

And the next line is "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you, not as the world giveth, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid" John 14:27

 

 

Feeling God During Worship

 

"God Inhabits the Praises of  His People"   it says in psalms.  So when we worship or listen to worship music, we can feel the spirit of God.

 

If we listen to recordings of worship music, we can feel God's spirit. But some music is contaminated by other spirits, because the musicians are contaminated spiritually. If they use caffeine, an unclean spirit will be on them and be transmitted thru the music, for ex.  If they have unrepentant sin, the anointing of God won't be on their music. There may be other spirits.  Annointed music is powerful; there is a purity and an impartation of God's spirit to the listener.  Some music I recommend is Vineyard Music on youtube.  One track is Holy and Annointed One by Brian Doerksen.

You can also listen to my music on my website . I sing in tongues on it.

Often during worship God fills us with his spirit. It makes us feel lighter, joyful, peaceful. Faith rises up in us. We get filled with love, and feel love toward others. I had many experiences like this and described them as "drinking God". It felt like I was feeding through my chest. That is how God feeds our spirit. We all need our spirit to be fed, and God does it through worship and hearing God's word. I have had the same experience while listening to someone preach who was annointed. It was an impartation; the presence of God on them "the annointing" was being transmitted to me and others. This is what happens during worship as well. It is why it is so important for worship leaders to be consecrated so that the only spirit being transmitted is the Holy Spirit, and not unclean, or demonic spirits, which can happen if they have used any drugs, or have any unrepentant sin.

It is important to "Feed our spirit" just like feeding our body. Our spirit controls and feeds our body. If we feed our spirit, it can sustain our body's health. Feeding our body does not feed our spirit. If our spirit is weak or contaminated, our body or mind will follow and become weak or diseased. An impure spirit will cause an impure mind and body and results in sickness.

When someone prays for us, we often feel the Holy Spirit.

I had a friend who discipled me and lived next to me with whom I read the bible and prayed every night. I used to know when he was praying for me; I would feel the Holy Spirit fall on me in my house, and would ask him later "were you praying for me at such and such a time?" and he would say yes.

************************************************************************************************************************

My website  1prophetspeaks.com also has prophetic messages under Articles to Jews to return to Israel. This is for political and spiritual reasons

Politically, America is becoming a fascist country and Jews need to go to Israel. God told me to warn them. Ezekiel 33.  God uses the political arena to fulfill his spiritual purposes. And it is His will for Jews to return to Israel.

Spiritually a Jew will find spiritual answers and peace in Israel.

I heard God say to me "Shuva Yisrael" which means "return israel". Israel is God's name for the Jewish people. He meant return to Eretz Yisrael, the land of Israel. He is calling all Jews to return, and said so in the prophets.  The prophets have said "with joy and singing they will return to Zion."  He says he will  put a "new spirit" in them when they return. This spirit is the Holy Spirit, which has brings peace and testifies that Jesus is the messiah. Yeshua, his Hebrew name means Salvation.

There is a supernatural connection to the land that can be palpably belt by a spiritually minded person. I did. When I was there, I remember feeling "this is my homeland".   The Spirit of God poured out on me with incredible power, every time I prayed, in Jerusalem. God says in the bible He will dwell in Jerusalem, and He is not lying. It is a supernatural place.  The whole Holy Land is. 

 In Tiberias, on the Sea of Galilee where Jesus walked on the water, I felt the most incredible SHALOM (Peace) in the air I have ever felt anywhere.  Maybe it was because God wanted me there. I think it also has to do with the fact that Jesus walked on the water there.

He said "My peace I give to you not as the world giveth give I to you. John 14:26

In Isaiah 9:6 he is called the "Prince of Peace" Tsar Shalom: 

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Isaiah 11:10 says

"And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, Who shall stand as a banner to the people; For the Gentiles shall seek Him, and His rest shall be glorious"

Eve stands by Adam`s side and God supports her in her war against the serpent

Eve stands by Adam`s side and God supports her in her war against the serpent.

 

In order to understand the Bible one has to be able to read it correctly. I did not begin to read properly until after I had completed my doctoral dissertation, and I quoted lengthily from the Bible during its composition. I became an English language teacher and discovered a new country in which I learnt to speak a few words and was able to understand more of what was revealed to me by God and the Holy Spirit from what I was able to know. I am not a great student of the Bible but I have read it for a serious work of research; it is a requirement for a Ph.D thesis that the writer `contribute to the sum of all human knowledge`. I have some claim to understanding therefore; I am recognized as human and feel qualified to have an opinion that is not alien to the mind of God.

 

In Genesis the serpent attempts to come between Adam and Eve. To begin with they have the fruit of the Tree of Life, which is God as onipotent good. The serpent poisons the relationship between the loving couple by having Eve give the forbidden fruit of the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil to Adam. They are innocent and are progressing and developing in accordance with the Will of God. This is the American Dream. When God discovers what has occurred, the serpent is told that there shall be `enmity` between the serpent`s `seed` and the woman``s. Eve, who is from the side of Adam, remains by Adam`s side. God has told her to declare war upon the serpent and shall support her in her campaign to save mankind from the serpent`s poisoned apple, which represents the generation of men that shall be the boy son`s of the serpent (poisons against her).

 

To understand this more fully we have to be able to perceive that, in Genesis: `Male and female he created them both. He created them both male and female.` This means that Adam and Eve were Hermaphrodite and God separated He/r so that they could perceive each other. In other words, God creates man in the image of God, which is Hermaphrodite, and then creates Woman from Adam`s side as a separated creature from this male-female totality which is the original image of a hermaphroditic God. It is to do with the working out of God`s omniscience. God wants to know God and the Creation and so God incarnates. Alone Adam is One with God, but hermaphroditically contains the future reproductive capacity of God in Eve. This is wholly good, represented by the Tree of Life, and God wants to know God so God produces Eve from Adam`s side in order that God can enjoy the fruits of Creation as Man and Woman.

 

The problem for Bible students initially is nomenclature. We assume that Man is what we know as men, but Man was hermaphroditic in Eden before God incarnated as Eve for Man (formerly hemraphroditic and One with God) to love. The `Fall` of Man is, therefore, a `falling in love` with God. Eve is told by the serpent that she shall have God`s knowledge is she eats of the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which is the serpent`s offer to her. God has forbade it, and she tastes of it before giving it to Adam. God has foreknown this in God`s omniscience, which we may think of as a `contingency plan` because God does not want evil but has omnisciently provided a solution. The serpent is condemned as Satan and Eve stands by man`s side because it is her place so to do. God tells her that the serpent is her enemy and prepares her for war. It is Adam that shall do much of the fighting, in the shape of her progeny through the ages, but it is the serpent that is the enemy, and it shall make its appearances in manifold guises through the boy sons (poisons) of Man and Woman that the serpent has cursed them with from Eden.

 

The latest is Saddam Hussein (is Adam Hussein), who represents the serpent grown into a dragon that threatened the world. It is the nature of the American Dream that progress and development is unthreatened innocence. That is why Saddam (be Sad am – be sad – am beast – [I] am [the] beast) represented a threat to the American Dream of progress and development in freedom, symbolized by 9/11 and the destruction of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre, a monument to free enterprise, which is `life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness`, a keystone of the American Dream and Manifest Destiny. When God tells Eve that the serpent is her enemy and that it will make war upon her `seed` she is being warned to guard herself against the poisons (boy sons) that shall arise to harm her and the Oneness of God that was with herself and Adam in Eden, and which it is the veiled promise of God that she shall receive it back for herself if she defeats the serpent that is her enemy.

 

It is Adam Hussein, as it were, that represents the boy son (poison) that was Eve`s enemy and the Gulf War is the gulf between her and the serpent that, as the dragon grown into the fulness of its power, she exterminated. Barack Hussein Obama represents `a sane` mankind. The notion of mankind is important. Just as I had to contribute to human knowledge, in the firm undrstanding of what human is, for my Ph.D, so mankind is about kindness. The American Dream can only progress and develop under threat from such serpents as Saddam, if the USA is ready always to defend freedom, which requires the acceptance of the reality that they do not live in unthreatened innocence, which is the American Dream and its fulfilment as Manifest Destiny. `The milk of humankindness` or mankindness is what the serpent is antithetical towards, that is, sadism, which is the antithesis of happiness (a key component of the American Dream), because a sadist wants sadness for everyone.

 

That is why the dragon that threatened Manifest Destiny was Saddam; he had dammed himself up in Iraq and was making his own people as sad as he could; particularly in Kurdishtan where he was practising sadism upon the Kurds, who are the descendants of the greatest of the knights of Arabia, Salahudin. I have a friend who was used to saying appealingly: `Be kind to me.` She is Hungarian and that is why I can say I have learned much from understanding a little Hungarian. Her friend advised me to convert to Christianity at the Faith Church or Hít Gyulakazet, in Debrecen, writing `You be Christian too.` on a small square of paper. I understood that men are not mankind or humankind and that kindness is not of them because they are no longer man, who was created as One Creature in God with Eve in the Garden of Eden by God. They are of the serpent, which is sadistic homosexuality that no longer perceives Christ as a redemptive figure whose teachings are a path to salvation, but that Christians` now represent a sadistic homosexuality elated by what they perceive as Christ`s masochistic torturing of God upon the cross. In other words, they have become Satanists.

 

My friend is called Emese, and a pastor at the Faith Church in Budapest stood before the entire congregation and told them that the name Emese, a traditional Hungarian name from the beginnings of the nation since its founding 1000 or more years ago in the Carpathian Basin at the centre of Europe, meant `pig mother`. Obviously, women are pigs to serpents, and it is Adam Hussein that represents New Men, the idea that Woman and mankind are to be the victims of saddists who bring saddest where happiness was. Pigs are haraam or forbidden in both Judaism and Islam, and it is indicative of a truth that, when Abraham takes Isaac to the mountaintop to sacrifice him at God`s behest, God has Abraham sacrifice a ram instead. The meaning is obedience. Obey God. God is good. Pigs are haraam because they remind men not to behave as they are told they are. It is a Commandment. If women are perceiveable as pigs by you, you are unclean.

People don`t repress sex because it`s immoral, they repress it because they`re evil. Christina Aguilera in her song Dirrty, and the accompanying video, expresses this perfectly. The guest `rapper` on the track pronounces upon her after her sex performance, that she`s: `Too dirty [for him] to clean my abdo [men].` She is a pig, then? This is what young women are told from childhood; that sex is `dirty`: so they are pigs - no?

 

In Islam it is obligatory that every Moslem visits the shrine of Abraham in Mecca in Saudi Arabia during a pilgriage called Hajj, which must take places at least once in their lives, and there is a celebration aferwards, the Eid, which marks God`s sparing of Isaac atop the mountain. What isn`t well understood is that Isaac was the founder of Israel and Judaism, whereas Ishmael, Abraham`s other son, is the founder of the line of Islam, that is, Moslems celebrate Israel`s founding immediately after the Hajj and acknowledge Abraham as the father of both Israel and Islam. They share the same principles. A jew cannot be a jew unless a jew`s mother is a jewess, which is matrilineal. In other words, mother is God; just as it is Eve whose `seed` is the enemy of the serpent and not man`s `seed` which represents the poisons (boy sons) that she cannot trust of the generations that are yet unborn of her in Eden.

 

Abraham is promised by God in the Old Testament: `...look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them...so shall thy seed be.` (Gen: 15.5-6) This is Manifest Destiny, in accordance with the American Dream, which is the Will of God. But it is the `seed` of Eve that is to triumph through Abraham`s `seed`. This is why Jesus Christ is called the Second Adam because he represents redemption from evil, that is, the serpent that, full grown, is Adam Hussein, the arch proponent of sadism at the beginning of the 21st century that had to be exterminated if the American Dream were to be fulfilled. Islam believes in Jesus as a great `teacher`, incidentally, while Judaism does not accept Christ as anything but good and wise. It is Christianity that views itself as the `seed` of Adam, and Christ is the vehicle and, indeed, vessel of redemption because of the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete, that is, the `teacher` of humankind after Jesus` crucifixion, resurrection and Ascension to God.

 

The Spirit of God is represented as dwelling in the Tabernacle that contains the Ark of the Covenant and the Ten Comandments. There she is called the Shekinah, which is the Glory of God, the Eternal feminine that Longinus seeks to prise away from the side of Jesus when he cuts open the side of the Christ with his spear point. As Second Adam, Jesus would have a Second Eve by his side and this would correspond to the Shekinah as Holy Spirit, which is known to God (whether known to Jesus or not) and is perceived as being present upon the Earth as the Paraclete after the Ascension. `Surely this was the Son of God!` Longinus mockingly gloats as one who has tortured God. It is, similarly, Adam Hussein`s gloat as the revealed Antichrist. But the `seed` of the woman, the Christ as Logos or Word of God`s law, born to Mary, the Virgin Second Eve - as unsheathed in the hand of the might of the United States of America – has learnt to reject sadism.

 

The Spear of Longinus is known as the Spear of Destiny. Because it represents the fulfilment of the American Dream and Manifest Destiny thanks to the Third Eve, which is the Holy Spirit as the Shekinah, which is not created from Adam`s side by God, nor is she the virgin vessel that produces a Second Adam by pathenogenesis, but she is God`s Spirit that informs the Creation and reveals God`s plan for redemption and Manifest Destiny. Longinus looks for her and God sends her as the Paraclete or `teacher` of humankindness against sadism.

 

This is why the sadist Longinus` Spear is the Spear of Destiny. It is God`s `contingency` in the face of evil and omnisciently so: revelation to us but always intended by God as a part of Providence, that is, God`s contingency plans. God is omnipotent, but it is God`s omnisicience that is the key to understanding. Jesus is described as `the Lamb of God` in the Bible, and Christians speak of being `washed in the blood of the Lamb` as redemptive. Neil Armstrong1 was the man on the moon (symbol of Eros, the feminine principle of relatedness and relationships that must receive integration as the Holy Spirit), and in Oops I Did It Again (2000), Britney Spears (1982-) is the woman on Mars. She is Britney Lamb strong. This again is God`s omniscience.

 

In Piece of Me (2007) Britney sings `I`m Miss American Dream since I was seventeen.` (1776 is `The Declaration of Independance` of the USA from the British Empire) while, in Oops I Did It Again, she sings `I`m not that innocent!` Unthreatened innocence is the American Dream and Manifest Destiny amongst the stars in Star Trek (1965-), for example, is its fulfillment.

 

The Gulf War (2001-3) threatened the dream, but the USA understands that; innocent progress and development exists; but `under possible threat`. Britney as Venus on Mars (Logos, as the power of good judgement or Word of God as Law and power of God as recently sheathed Sword after the Gulf War) represents `the woman clothed with the sun and with the moon at her feet` giving birth to redemption. In Revelation the woman`s birthing is threatened by a dragon, Saddam Hussein (1937-2006). Those who fought against the dragon grown into its strength are therefore`washed in the blood of the Lamb` (Rev: 12.11), that is, they gave their blood for God.

 

Saddam Hussein reprents the notion that sadism is what people are for. A perspective promulgated by the evil because sadism is what they are for. They would persuade us that Christ is a masochist and that `washed in the blood of the Lamb` is their invitation to torture the Lamb, which would be a lot of lamb if the Holy Spirit of God, the Glory of God that is the Shekinah were incarnate in everyone. Britney represents the Spears of Destiny rather than the Spear because the Shekinah is the Holy Spirit, which represents the long term plan or Manifest Destiny of God`s Revelation, which goal is escape from sadism.

 

Oops I Did It Again is, therefore, a celebration. But Britney Spears rejects the American astronaut that woos her. He arrives in a spacesuit, so represents old technology, and she breathes the air of Mars, the god of war aquiescent in the presence of the goddess of love, as it were. In short, he represents the gun. Men who prefer sadism to God in heaven where she is.

Symbolically she represents the Virgin after the Assumption; God assuming her, that is, she is assumed by God – omnisciently as a providential intention in accordance with contingency planning – as foreplanned Eve who, as the continuing Shekinah or Spirit of God as Holy Spirit, having fought and exterminated the serpent grown into a dragon, triumphs once again as the Glory of God which the americans enshrine within the symbol of their `star spangled banner` as Old Glory.

 

The Star Spangled Banner

…

Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,

…

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

…

Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.

…

O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand

…

Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.

…

And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."2

 

Here are those `washed in the blood of the lamb` for freedom`s sake; for the Glory of God and in Whom we trust. Britney on Mars represents that progression and development in innocence which is without threat; the American Dream and Manifest Destiny within reach. Men represent a threat to her there. This is why she says: `I`m not that innocent!` She is Manifest Destiny as the United States as Woman who is the conquering Aphrodite over Mars` god of war and she does not want her dream threatened; so she rejects the besuited old-stylee 50s high-tec gangster. Threatened innocence is what the American Dreamer has to cope with on Earth. On Mars, Britney `the strong Lamb of God`, is wise to it.

At one point in the video she gestures and all of the men collapse as if extinguished, which is what`s intended. She prefers the Shekinah, the feminine Holy Spirit around her; and she can be sure the Glory of God is with her if she is surrounded by woman. She represents young womanhood who worship `the Lamb of God` rather than than Saddam-mascohistic delights of `Christian` homosexuals elated by Longinus` torturing of God upon the cross.

 

"To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honour and glory and power, for ever and ever!" (Rev: 5.13).

 

Britney Spears has described herself as bisexual, and this requires physical bisexuality as well as that psychological male-female complementarity which denotes those individuals able to incorporate the masculine principle of Logos and the female principle of Eros into their wholeness. One aspect of God sits upon the throne in Revelation while the other aspect is `the Lamb`. Britney Spears and her male aspect are the future, which is represented by the futanar, that is, women representative of psycho-physical bisexuality that have a penis of their own.

In Genesis God said there would be `enmity` between the serpent`s `seed` and that of the woman`s. God also promises Abraham, because he followed God`s instructions and took Isaac to sacrifice him atop the mountain:

 

`…because thou has done this, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son; that in blessing I will bless then, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

because thou has obeyed my voice. (Gen: 22.15-18)

 

It is important that it is the `seed` of Abraham, which means that of Isaac and Ishmael, Islam and Judaeo-Christianity, that are to be the recipients of God`s fulfilled promise, and this is from the Old Testament, the Talmud, and not the Koran, which is the holy book of Islam as revealed to the prophet Mohammed by angels and in which Jesus appears as a `teacher`. Jesus does not appear in the Old Testament, which is the Jewish holy book and the Jews do not accept Jesus as Messiah – sent by God. Jesus is only the central figure for Christians who accept the New Testament and the Old Testament, which means by extension that they have to accept that it is the promise of God to all Abraham`s `seed`, including Moslems and Jews, that God `will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven`. Interestingly, the `lamp of Islam` is `the light of Creation` in the Moslem world, and may correspond to the torch held by the statue of Liberty and which appears as a symbol in many cultures; including the Colossus of Rhodes (292-280 B.C.), a statue that symbolized Greek civilization bestraddling the harbor mouth with a torch of illumination in its hand.

The New Colossus3

 

Not like the brazen giant4 of Greek fame,

With conquering limbs astride from land to land;

The United States of America is the greatest nation on Earth because of its beliefs; symbolized by the Statue of Liberty that stands as a beacon of hope and faith before New York harbor with the torch of freedom in her hand.

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand

A mighty woman with a torch,

whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning,

and her name Mother of Exiles.

From her beacon-hand

Glows world-wide welcome;

her mild eyes command

The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

 

`Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!` cries she

With silent lips. `Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!`

 

The United States is great because she embraces Moslem, Jew, Christian, black, white; or any denomination or colour. She represents the Earth. Saddam-masochistic homosexuality as practiced by men, however, is sterile and only wants more flesh to torture; whereas woman - and woman with her own penis - denote eternal fecundity and immortality in heaven. This is what God`s promise to Eve means and Britney`s victory is as the spearhead of Woman`s Manifest Destiny. Britney`s Spears are the future. Amen.
