I have a follower… a person who follows me throughout the year. I attend several pen shows: Washington, Columbus (Ohio), St. Louis, and now Atlanta. He has appeared to me, always grinning, and seeking answers to esoteric questions. He is interested in the truth as both a Jewish man and a universalist. He has yet to find the truth, but his questions reveal that he will not be content until he understands God.
Jews were once
God’s “chosen and peculiar people” (Deut 14:2). Now, Christians are (1 Pet 2:9)
— “You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar
people; that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of
darkness into his marvelous light.”
God substituted
Christians when Hebrews (now called “Jews”) failed. Failure is neither
economically nor in prestige. Failure is indifference to God about His mercy (1
Pet 2:10).
God was merciful
to the Hebrews because of one person… Abraham. Jews were chosen because they
were the generation of Abraham. “Generation” therein means that they
were of the genetics, or “seed,” of Abraham. When Jewish seed failed, then
Christ’s Seed substituted.
Jews had mercy
because of the faith of Abraham. Paul wrote to the Galatians, “Know you
therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham” (Gal
3:7); the “therefore” is that “even as Abraham believed God, and it was
accounted to him for righteousness” (Gal 3:7).
Jews were
chosen and peculiar because Abraham believed in God and they were “children,”
meaning the seed or genetics of Abraham. Even so, Christians are also the seed
of Abraham because of their faith.
To put it in
modern vernacular, the Jews blew their chances because they rebelled
against God. God had an expectation of them; that they have the faith that Abraham
had. Christians are the seed of Abraham, not by genetics, but because they have
the faith of Abraham.
The initial vision of Isaiah was about the Hebrew Israelites (KEY VERESES):
2 Hear,
O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the Lord hath
spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled
against Me.
3 The
ox knows his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel does not know, My
people does not consider.
4 Ah
sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of
evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of
Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward. (Isa
1:2-4)
That caught my attention. Yes, I do
say “devolved”! In so many words, that was what God showed Isaiah… that Abraham’s
kind had devolved. It did not hurt my friend’s feelings since I thought he had
devolved into a lesser being. In fact, the word, “mankind” should be used
loosely. We were once the humane Adam-kind, but now we are not.
The vision begins with God acknowledging
that the people that He created were His “children.” Not only because He fathered
them, but they were made in His Image.
Adam and his mate were a “shadow”
of God Himself; made in the Image of God. Adam’s kind carried the genes of God
in their innermost being. They were genetic images of God. Think “clone” if you
choose because God took His Glory and made Adam glorious like Himself. Adam was
genetically the “spittin’ image” of God, except for His flesh. Even then, the
flesh of Adam was made incorruptible; it was invulnerable.
God created superman and superwoman
but like the “Superman,” they had one vulnerability; when they were
exposed to elements from another realm, they were vulnerable and would weaken
until they gradually died.
The angel, Lucifer, was the “Beast,”
the Serpent, that was alien to the Garden Paradise. When they were exposed to it,
they would indeed die. The light emitting creature, Lucifer, was beautiful and
lustrous, and in the process of eating, it illuminated them with his false
ideas.
Now back to time.
Time did not evolve mankind. Time
devolved both the man and the woman of the species. It came slowly but surely.
God slowed the devolution process by putting onto them coats of skin to capture
the fiery darts of the wicked one so that they would not perish quickly (Gen
3:17). In just over 900 years, glorious Adam and Eve withered away.
“Eve?” what happened to “woman”?
She had devolved to the extent because of miscegenation with the Beast that she
became its kind of creature. Just as Adam named the other kinds of
beasts, he now named the new one. Eve was not the woman’s name, but her kind.
She had devolved from glorious to inglorious due to one great sin — The Beast
had changed her nature. She was no longer domesticated but a wanderer — what
would be called a “rounder” in modern times, doing as she pleased without
regard to the consequences.
A third kind devolved from her
kind; she told Adam that his son was a “man” but not an “Adam.” He was an ‘Is
(eesh) n the Hebrew, an extant being — just another existence (Gen 4:1).
Cain was not his name, but it was his kind as well… Qayin, “a
creature” (
Eve was the mother of all living
(Gen 3:20, so we are no longer glorious like humankind, but “come short of the
glory of God” (Rom 3:23). That expression means that Adam’s kind has devolved
to some degree and in the process of time what was once glorious became
decadent like “their father the Devil” (John 8:44).
In time, around 5500 years or so,
according to sacred books, Adam’s kind had become so decadent that they were
depraved (iniquitous). As the “Last Adam,” who was full of Glory, Jesus made it
possible for some to be made whole and full of glory just as the woman
in the time of Jesus with an issue of the blood was “made whole from that hour”
(Mat 9:22).
The generations of the Bible are
there because they reveal how Adam’s kind, full of glory, degenerated to
lacking some degree of glory.
Now back to Isaiah. God revealed
how degenerate the Hebrews had become since the faith of Abraham restored some amount
of their glory.
Abraham himself was glorified at
death, and at the time of Lazarus and Jesus, he was king of Paradise. Lazarus
was comforted in the bosom of Abraham who was a “place-keeper” until Jesus arose
from the dead to be King of kings, and Lord of lords.
God had said to Abraham, “I am
the Lord that brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to
inherit it” (Gen 15:7). Hidden in that statement is some “evolution” as God
restored some of the glory to Abraham’s kind because of his faith in God, but
it began to degenerate in that generation when Abraham lied. Then, God improved
that seed again with the miraculous birth of Israel who was apparently neither
the son of Sarai nor the son of Abram. God improved what was left of Adam’s
kind with His genetics again. Isaac was a “son of God” in the same sense as
Abel and Seth, who replaced Abel. [1]
Returning now to the key verses, Isaiah
relayed the vision that he had from God... Because they were rebellious — the
Hebrews — they suffered the consequences.
God calls them a “sinful nation.”
That is likely an understatement in translation of the Hebrew. They were sinful
foreigners — foreign to God. They were no longer Hebrew but came short of
that new kind that God had favored for so many years. As such, the Hebrews
descended from glorified Abraham, had degenerated to the extent that they were much
like the pagan “Gentiles”
That God had brought Abraham out
of Ur of the Chaldees has a double meaning: (1) Ur was a city in Chaldea — the
land on the plain of Shinar, and (2) Since Ur means “fire,” God had brought
Abraham out of the fire.
In The Book of Jasher,
Nimrod was building a tower to reach God, obviously to prove that God does not
exist. Abram, at that time, was the one that had enough faith in God to defy
wicked Nimrod, so King Nimrod placed him in a fiery furnace in the same manner
as Nebuchadnezzar placed Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego in one, but saw a fourth
man in there that he recognized as the “Son of God” (Dan 3:25).
Abram came out of the fire uninjured.
He had become “glorified” in the fire rather that perished. The flesh of Abram
had become incorruptible to withstand the flames. God had regenerated Abram and
made him whole in the manner of Adam who was created whole. Thereafter a new,
improved kind would cease wandering the Earth and made a return to Paradise.
Abraham lived in paradisical Canaan land — the land of milk and honey — where
he was recognized as king, but not in the earthly realm; hence Paradise as the comfort
of Abraham’s bosom (Luke 16:22).
Those from Abraham’s bosom — his
seed — would be favored to rest for eternity in Paradise as God’s chosen and
peculiar people. That Lazarus went there, shows that Christians had become the
favored people; they were now the glorified ones.
There were cycles of degeneration
and regeneration because of the grace of God. Seth was the “second Adam,” and
Holy Mount Hermon would be the “Paradise” of His seed; they were the ones from
Noah’s days; “the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare
children to them” (Gen 6:4).
Noah was the “Third Adam” that
was preserved beyond the waters (“Hebrews”). Mankind was saved from the miscegenation
of righteous men who came into the “daughters of men” — Adam’s new kind (Eve’s
kind) as she was the mother of all living and the genetic source that passed
along the DNA of the Wicked One. (The name, Eve, means “symbiosis” and that is
the coupling between opposites for their common survival.)
Hopefully, the reader gets two
points — (1) that we are no longer humane and glorious mankind but depraved aliens
without God, (2) who require regeneration into new creatures (2 Cor 5:17).
Abraham was at least the “Fourth
Adam” from the genetics of the “First Adam.” Those cycles would end with the “Last
Adam” (Jesus; 1 Cor 15:45) who is the final “quickening Spirit” whose death
finished the many cycles of devolution, improvement, and devolution again. His quickening
Spirit is the final recourse to save Adam’s kind from extinction! Jesus, at His
death, said, “It is finished” (John 19:30), thus ending the many cycles of devolving
of man and restorations by God.
God revealed to Isaiah the status
of the few remaining Hebrews that had been favored. Isaiah saw that they were “a
people laden with iniquity.” They were heavy, or worn out, from perversity.
Perverse lives had worn them down to become something less that glorified
Hebrews who had, had the Promise. In other words, due to time and sin, Abraham’s
kind, and even Moses’s kind, had degenerated. They had devolved again from what
they once were.
Isaiah was shown that once
righteous people had become “a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters.”
“Children” and “seed” therein
both point toward genetics. Evolution is
an improvement in the genetics from something less to something better. God did
evolve the many ‘Adam’s” but left on their own for survival, they became less
fit to survive in a reversal of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. Isaiah saw the
truth; he saw that Adam’s kind had devolved and became the less fit to survive.
The Lord God had blessed
Israelite seed many times. Now it was over for “they have forsaken the LORD.”
Keeping in mind that the Lord God was both Creator and Regenerator, that God would
soon end the cycles of regenerating the degenerate. Their survival was now for
them to survive without God. They failed to do so. They disappeared from Israel
(The Garden of Eden) and it was turned back over to the “sons of Ishmael” (Muslims)
who fared even worse!
Now, Israel has been returned to
its rightful heirs after Jesus came to finish that as well. Israel exists to this
day because the Lord God, Jesus — their Messiah — restored it to them. Now, let
us see what they do with it!
That Jewish man — the one that I
had encountered at the pen show — wondered why I always said “devolved” rather
than evolved. I said that because I was shown by God the same vision that
He showed Isaiah, that “they are gone away backward.”
Mankind going his own way, has always
gone his way backward. Left to their own devices, mankind has devolved.
Outwardly, man has seemed to be more handsome, larger, and more intelligent,
but all that brings vanity, arrogance, and hatred. It is indeed the struggle for
the fittest, but that is man exalting themselves. Now women are doing the same
thing!
All the while we think that we
are improving, we are devolving further. Total depravity will never be
acceptable. The world will be destroyed before totally depraved beings are
allowed to ruin it, just as in the days of Noah.
In those days, depraved, degenerate
people had become alien to God, doing all things that were right in their own
eyes from pedophilia, hard liquor, continual parting, and orgies. They even
performed sodomy on each other, women, and even children; all this according to
the Book of Adam and Eve. As the world went under, they did whatever
they wanted to do. The water was their “Titanic” marveling all the while at
rain for the first time ever. Their real, indestructible, unsinkable ship was
Noah’s Ark, and its real “Captain” was the Person of the Lord God.
Many have been taught evolution.
It is merely a theory that many accept as truth. It has been repeated so many
times that without proof, it has become the truth to many. Look at any big city
riot, and people can see, but not understand; they are depraved, degenerate
people that are still devolving.
One of the newer devolutions is
gender fluidity. Crazy sin-infested beings think that they are whatever they
think they are.
Now top that! Yes, they have! a
new kind of transhumanism are those that can cycle back and forth from one
gender to another whenever they desire.
Look on social media and tell me
that mankind has not devolved! I have seen it in the process of time wherein
normal children have become imaginary creatures descended from the genetics of
the Serpent.
[1] I have written in past
commentaries how Isaac came into being, and indeed, it seems to be when Abraham
was away, and probably without sperm, and after Sarah became barren.
