HATED FOR THOUGHT CRIMES

Both politicians and people of faith should present their cases for their faith and then refrain from other ado, thusly to avoid hostility and ill will.

The mind is a beautiful thing that rejects encroachment. In other words, we are happy to live a myth since it delays coming to grips with the truth, Politicians and theologians often trespass into the world of the others. Even more so, entertainers enter the minds of others, often so easily, that we are unaware. In a sense, we are indeed whatever mode of entertainment that we choose to participate.

For instance, I avoid both rock and rap music because the messages are the most secular of any other genres. Oftentimes they are not only secular but wicked. All music forms present messages that are accompanied by a tune to make them palatable.

Entertainment is like giving your dog and unwanted pill by placing the awful pill in a doggy treat. Most often, those who love entertainment swallow the “pill” because they enjoy the emotion and satisfaction that is derived from it. Like Pavlov’s dog, they don’t care if an object is forthcoming, so long as they are able to salivate. Provocative music is a great example for that type of hollowness.

By now, musicians are surely infuriated. Do not be for that is just my opinion that is backed up by much psychological research, as well as evidence from real life. If I am wrong that is just the opinion of one person. Why should anyone care about what I think unless it threatens their own “forts.”

People do erect barriers. I do as well even though I try not to! Few of us want to hear the opinions of others because we are then forced to challenge our own. Most people are comfortable living a lie because that is the version of reality that causes them the least stress and anxiety.

Poltitics is the most gruesome. For instance, I do not watch the Democrat National Convention because it is stressful to me. How could anyone believe all the lies; the main one that suddenly Kamala Harris will be the best president ever. I know the real Kamala from years of listening to her stupidity. That is my opinion and right now many Democrats will cease reading because they are comfortable being a Democrat regardless of who their leader might be.

They are more uncomfortable with the alternative, Donald Trump. People vote for the party with which they feel comfortable. Because people nearly always vote a party line, and so did their parents or other mentors, they vote that way because they feel comfortable.

People are like Pavlov’s dog that soon got adjusted even receiving nothing whenever the bell was rung.

People of color have been conditioned in that same manner. So long as the Democrats promise, they salivate even at the thought of getting something in return for their allegiance. Now, most blacks are satisfied with little as their masters become richer as the bell tolls, meaning the closing bell of the New York Stock Exchange. Their conditioning provides the power for others to get rich at their expense, but they feel more comfortable with Democrats because it is in their blood due to centuries of servanthood to the Democrats on their plantations.

For myself, I feel comfortable voting Republican because I have prospered during the years of Republican rule. It is not so much economical for me, but I feel more comfortable with the party that has been right the most in history.

Democrats created the Indian “Trail of Tears,” slavery, the Ku Klux Klan, Jim Crow, and now they have “reimagined” America. Based on their political genetics, would any sane person believe that their “Great Reset” would be good for blacks or any Americans? Can you not see that the Democrat Party has divided America based on race and even sexuality, pitting almost everyone against each other. Their ideologists have created a trans-sexual people, a transhuman people, and even a transracial people by encouraging miscegenation in nearly all entertainment commercial breaks.

Why would the progressive media present so many mixed-race and homosexual commercials? For you to get the message that what was once taboo is now okay. Even conservatives are now quite comfortable with those lifestyles. It is not that they are wrong but that their messages are paid for by we the people who may have different opinions.

Now back to my premise. If someone wants a mixed-race marriage that is none of my business. If anyone wants to commune with the opposite sex, neither is that any of my business. What IS my business is that they endeavor to force their opinions on us by repetition.

Aldous Huxley wrote, “Sixty-four thousand four-hundred repetitions make one truth.” Of course, repetition has nothing to do with truth but it is psychological conditioning. My point is that you are cunningly conditioned continually, and you are fine knowing that your thoughts are not your own!

Now for some theology: The so-called “Serpent” said to the woman when she was tested whether she really belonged to God, “You shall not surely die” (Gen 3:4). First off, due to translations and the repetition so many billions of times, many Christians accept the idea that the female of Adam’s kind was talking to an intelligent snake. Now, let me say, only one time; She was talking to Lucifer whose nature was as a snake — “cunning” (Strong 2006). That Lucifer appeared as a serpent makes Christianity seem more mythological than if the angel, Lucifer, was a cunning, alien beast.

Because of the talking serpent, what would most people think? Judeo-Christianity is much like Greek mythology, and then they would reject either one.

 So, it was Lucifer who said that you will “surely die.” No, Lucifer did not say that; he said “mut, mut, mut” if he spoke the Hebrew language. He repeated, if it had been in English, “die, die, die.” My point is that repetition was used even with the first sin to imbue sin. Lucifer had conditioned the woman, and she became sub-servient to him (Gen 4:1).

Because Eve is our “Adam” as “the mother of all living” (Gen 3:20) are nature is like hers. The “Devil” Lucifer got into her genes, not through her pants as she was naked, but into her nature. Since that time, due to “original (genetic) sin” mankind is easily deceived.

Repeat anything many times and foolish men and women will most often go for the bait. We are so easily conditioned by deception, that human beings are more gullible than dogs who can sniff out those with evil intentions. To circumvent that, evil is always presented as “good” as was the case with Eve’s first encounter with Lucifer (Gen 3).

Now back to the comfort zones of us humans. Evil people feel more comfortable with other evil people.

In politics, evil people agree with a political “platform” whereon the majority adhere. Examine the two platforms of the major parties; both sound beneficial, do they not? The cream-of-the -crop writers do a paramount performance in making evil things seem good.

Marxism itself sounds good, but to implement legalized theft — equity — requires great control and supreme force.

Just as Eve was bewitched by the free things hanging on the tree, she failed to look long range and so did the male Adam who watched. The woman did not die and that made the “Good God” out to be the Deceiver and the Deceiver out to be the good guy.

If the man had waited for the long-term results, he would have known for sure that indeed both would die, die, die! Which they did long-term (930 years for the male.)

That seems generous, and most of us would be satisfied with that, but compared to eternity, as Adam found out, even a millennium was nothing!

The point therein is that we should all look at the long term. What will things be like in the future for we the people?

All that we need to do is look at the past and see the future. The most dominant hoax ever pulled on mankind was to trust the government that would make even the world prosperous for a thousand-year reign. That was what would be the goal of the Third Reich.

Those with money, due to inflation, obtain more wealth while those with limited money can buy less. As such, inflation makes some richer as the masses get poorer. We are in such an economic state at the present. We are on the verge of a return to Nazism.

Inflation caused Nazism. Their German marks were worth more to burn as fuel than to buy things. During the Weimer Republic, diners paid first because the prices would rise as they ate. Eating was a privilege because money was trash to be burned and it took thousands of marks to even eat at all.

Republics are almost always bound  to failure because the “representatives” spend your money as their own. Republics are easy pickings for Marxists who truly desire to make things better for mankind, but without a God to direct a long-lasting recovery.

Marx meant well with his socialist “Communist Manifesto,” even failing to realize that there would be many “Hitler’s” that would use it for evil purposes.

Stalin even out-Hitlered, Hitler!

Because something is meant to be good does not make it good. Marx, from his grave, has destroyed more nations than any dictator ever by the misuse of what seemed good; that became insane ideologies.

In general, nations that are about to fall can be revealed early on by their inflation rates. Those trillions of dollars that have been spent so wastefully, giving things we don’t have to people with needs and now wants; the inflation curve reveals we are not a great nation but like demon-possessed pigs, and the cliff is near and convenient.

Dictators buy votes by spending fake money that they make. Dictators don’t even care whether it is real money or not, so long as their serfs think it is money. In America, there is no longer real money for the masses. The privileged have real money: gold and silver but all the people have is worthless paper money that has utility so long as the people have faith in their fake “god.”

Inflation is the most divisive thing since God divided the waters from the waters. Inflation creates the have and the half-nots but so long as politicians promise more of worthless paper bills, they are deluded into keeping things the way they are.

The people have been deluded and lived an illusion for nearly fifty years. We are not great and to even want to make us great again is anathema to those who gain from our delusion of prosperity. They will always promise “soon” but soon never comes1

What you have read, if you read this far, is my opinion, but it is based on reality. We see it happening, yet deny what must never happen again, is happening again. The Great Reset of our world’s leaders is making things bad again, yet that is okay with the people because it is coming so gradually that the change goes unnoticed.

My problem is that I have noticed the gradual, insidious change and realize it is not pleasing to me nor God.

Now you can do three things with my opinion: (1) Care less, (2) get angry and hateful because you have different beliefs, or (3) accept my premises. However, you should not hate me because I think the way I do!

Hatred of ideas are “thought crimes” in totalitarian countries. Hating us, even MAGA deplorables, based on our thoughts and ways, is punishment for the way we think, and how you think decides whether we the people of the Constitution are the existential threat or those who hate us so much that we need to be silenced.

VICARIOUSLY DRIVING NAILS

Those who rationalize “cause something to seem reasonable” (Merriam-Webster 2023). Rationalization is not a cause but is seemingly so. It is a figment of the imagination. It seems reasonable but it is not; it is a biased opinion about one’s own actions.

For instance, the attempted assassin of Donald Trump surely thought it was reasonable to shoot the former president for some unknown cause. The assassination attempt was the effect (or action) of some unknown cause that seemed reasonable to the shooter. Perhaps he really did believe that Trump was a threat to democracy; after all, according to Aldous Huxley in Brave New World, thousands of repetitions make one truth.

The media had repeated even millions of times that Trump was a threat to democracy without even naming how so! “Repetition” was the means to kill Trump to prevent him from destroying their skewed version of democracy.

What is the truth? Trump is patriotic and does want America to be better again. He has demonstrated that when he was president before.

However, this is not a commentary about politics. It is about people like Thomas Matthew Crooks who thought it was reasonable to murder a man just because so many do not like the man.

Crooks indeed was an extreme example of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Crooks was the deranged one because he could not live with the man with whom he disagreed so intesnely. He thought it worth giving his own life so that Trump was silenced. Hos death even meant that never again would he need to see nor hear Donald Trump ever again. He was so agitated with his enemy that he did something irrational. Who was hurt the most? Crooks himself who died because his imagination led him places that were unreasonable.

Was shooting Trump worth the latter’s silence? Even with Trump dead, the movement would still live on and perhaps with even more enthusiasm. Shooting at the former president was an irrational act that the shooter thought a reasonable thing. His mind was apparently so deranged that it was worth dying for it to cease the agitation it was experiencing.

Most of us would never even think of shooting someone else for various reasons. However, many vicariously murder others. How so? They experience or realize “through imaginative or sympathetic participation in the experience of another” (ibid).

Many Americans wanted Trump dead. They never pulled the trigger, but they imagined that they did so by wishing the bullet had hit its mark. They rationalized, just as Crooks, that the nation would be better with Trump dead.

Those with Trump Derangement Syndrome would have their anxieties alleviated if the bullet had hit the target. Crooks was not shooting at the former president’s heart but his mind. He wanted the thoughts of Trump dead and gone!

Now we can test that with the Bible.

Jesus said, “Whosoever looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart” (Mat 5:28). The “heart” in that verse is the human will. Whosoever lusts has already committed the act vicariously. He envisions that the pornography that the others are doing is himself doing those things.

Vicariousness is not limited to imaginary sexual encounters. “Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer: and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:15). According to that, millions of people wanted the former President dead. Crooks was the shooter but those with Trump Derangement Syndrome made it possible for him to pull the trigger. He almost fulfilled the fantasy of the mob. He fulfilled the thoughts of Biden and Harris.

Incidentally, the Jews did not kill Jesus alone. They were vocal about it but the others in the mob, even those who remained silent, wanted Jesus dead; not because He was guilty of anything, but they were uncomfortable with His teachings.

Who killed Jesus in their attempts to murder Jesus? The Father killed His own Son because that is what the mob wanted. Then mob was out to get Yahweh by killing His Son. Yahweh sacrificed His own Genome to the mob.

Nimrod, millennia before, had hunted God on His own turf but failed to kill the invisible God — Yahweh. Now, there on Calvary was the very visible Image of God, so if they could topple His Image, then God was as good as dead. They were not out to kill Jesus but to vicariously kill Yahweh. Jesus was the acceptable sacrifice for Yahweh Himself. If Jesus had remained dead, then to them, Yahweh would be dead, and they all could do what they wanted to do with impunity.

The killers had to get to Yahweh by killing Him vicariously because, despite what Muslims believe, phantoms cannot be crucified!

Who killed Jesus? Yahweh did not do the work, but He could have saved Jesus. Jesus revealed to Pontius Pilate, “You could have no power at all against Me, except it were given you from above: therefore, He that delivered me unto thee has the greater sin” (John 19:11).

Judas did not deliver Jesus, nor did Caiaphas nor even Pilate. Yahweh delivered Jesus to His death because Jesus was the only acceptable sacrifice: 

(Jesus) who gave Himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father (Galatians 1:4)… And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. (1 John 2:2) 

When Jesus walked peacefully to His death; it was self-sacrifice; as Yahweh God in the flesh; it was Yahweh who took on the sins of the world and even toppled His own Image — the Man, Jesus. Yahweh murdered Himself in a vicarious manner; it was as if Yahweh drove the nails and fled!

The people did not hate Jesus, the man. They hated Jesus, the God.

Hatred (misio in the Greek) is as the name implies; they were miserable that they could not do whatever they wanted to do.

Just as love (agape) is goodwill toward God and man, miseo is ill-will toward God and mankind. Them all, even those who did no actions themselves, had ill-will toward Yahweh and His Image, Jesus. Their ill-will was the tough Law that Jesus invoked — the Law of Love. Love is a hard thing to do!

Jesus wanted them to be loving and kind and that was just not their nature. They preferred Jesus Derangement Syndrome to the Law of Love on that dreadful day.

“Whosoever,” the ones in John 3:16, who hates his brother has already murdered vicariously. No, they did not pull the trigger nor drive the nails, as the case must be, but they all are guilty if they hate the man that intensely. Whosoever cried out, “Crucify Him” (Mark 15:13). They did not drive the nails but did the dastardly, even bloody, act in their minds!

Jesus seemed to be lying about who He was. It was irrational at that time for a man to be truly God. They had seen many men who made that claim come and go, and for them, Jesus was just another pretender god. The others had died, so why not Jesus? That seemed a rational and reasonable thing to do!

Paul did not think that killing someone else for your own wrongs was a reasonable thing to do, so he said, “You present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (Rom 12:1).

God had already made the vicarious sacrifice for your trespasses with the propitiation of the blood of His own Son; now it is your turn. Yours need not be a bloody sacrifice at all, but merely a turning away from sin in the same manner that God turned away your sin by presenting Himself. Your propitiation is not even your flesh but the desires of your flesh. You must have goodwill toward God and others. You must not think about getting even but getting them saved!

Hatred is ill-will. It is as if murdering another person, and murdering a creature of God is vicariously murdering God again. Each time you hate another, that is driving another vicarious, imaginary nail into the hands or feet of Jesus.

Why do people have hatred in their hearts (minds)? Because they have “People Derangement Syndrome.” (Yes, sometimes I too am guilty of that).

Even Christians oftentimes cannot stand the idea that others are not Christians. They even get pleasure out of shunning!

Not dining with those who reject God is a noble commandment (1 Cor 5:11), but if it is implemented ignobly, then that is as if murdering the sinful person, and makes the shunner the murderer.

The “knife” is the commandment, so to speak, but having pleasure in using the commandment is ill-will with the so-called “Christian.” Having pleasure in inserting the commandment into the heart and soul of the sinner is wrong… you know, the one (whosoever) that God loves so much!

Sin is hateful. It is as if crucifying Jesus all over again with each sin. Jesus has been re-crucified, even by Christians like me daily.

Sin is the thoughts of God as dead so that the penalty of sin is not justified.

Rationalization is self-justification: The inquiring lawyer inquired of Jesus about who would lie forever. The lawyer pleading his case was “willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, “And who is my neighbour?” (Luke 10:29). speaking about the one that he must love.

Jesus used the example of the non-Christian, non-Jew — the Samaritan. The lawless Samaritan showed love and He was not obeying commandments, but he had goodwill for the dying man whereas those under the Law did not.

In other words, love (goodwill) is not to be only mouthed but put into action. The Pharisees were the mouths of the Law, and Jesus called them vipers. Those who press the Law unto others are the viperous generation of whom it is written (Mat 3:27).

The Law is good, but those who joyously make others obey the Law that even they cannot do, are the snakes even if they teach the gospel. Hence, Christianity is not strict obedience to the Law but a willingness to do better than the Law, even to love, not just neighbors, but even enemies. Jesus said, “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” (Mat 5:44). So, what do Christians do so often? Either sue or persecute you!

Having ill-will toward those who do wrong things to you may be the command, but it is not the intent of the Law. Christians must overcome their hatred of their enemies and out-perform the Law. Worse yet is the satisfaction so many get in vicariously knifing their enemies.

REBELLIOUS CHILDREN RULING

 God, still describing the end of time to Isaiah saw today; he saw the young under attack: 

I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. And the people shall be oppressed, everyone by another, and everyone by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honorable. (Isa 3:4-5; KJV)

 Let’s examine that contention more closely. I do not particularly care for the New International Version, but it is in plain, modern English. The same verse reads the following: 

I will make mere youths their officials; children will rule over them.” People will oppress each other— man against man, neighbor against neighbor. The young will rise up against the old, the nobody against the honored. (Isa 3:4-5; NIV)

 Of course, that refers to the city of Jerusalem in Judah, but also to the people in general. The end-of-time times are for the entire world, not just for the middle east. What goes for Israel, goes for everyone — the “people” in the NIV and the KJV… “everyone.”

Sin and rebellion are not only a Jewish problem but a people problem. Germans had a “Final Solution” for the Jews and Jesus a “Final Solution” for both Jews and Gentiles. Jesus finished the Final Solution on the Cross; it was either to choose death or life. The Cross is  a “Decision Tree” whether to choose death or life. It is indeed the “Tree of Life” of Genesis: “He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the Way of the Tree of Life” (Gen 3:24).

God placed to the front of the Garden, guardian angels and a flashing tool of some sort to guard the journey to the Gallows of the Living Thing. (My words from possible translations; Strong’s Lexicon).

The Cross was the "gallows” that made Jesus immobile. The Holy Ghost was literally the “Awful Thing.” Jesus was God who was still alive.

As you can see, the so-called “Tree of Life” was the beginning of the journey to a return to Paradise. Not by coincidence at the Cross was also a flashing sword: “One of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water” (John 19:34). All that was missing from the scene at Calvary were guardian angels. You can be sure that they were there as well!

Jesus, therefore, is the “Final Solution” (John 19:3) to mankind’s ancient problem.

Isaiah defined the lingering problem; it is us; we are the problem! We are the “thorns” in the brow of Jesus. We are the agony of our Lord and Savior.

Isaiah was just a messenger of God. He revealed only what God showed him. The gist of human problem-making was spelled out: (1) I will make mere youths officials. As can be seen today with the various autonomous zones established by the young on college campuses in big cities, even wise elderly men and women in government bow to the whims of naïve young self- appointed leaders. That we even listen to their cry-baby demands disturbs God. Who made them leaders? Anybody that gives them credence.

(2) Children will rule over them, meaning the adults. In this age, parents are afraid of their children. Children do rule their elders. Why? For fear that their young will no longer love them! Parents, in this age like never before, allow their children to rule over them. Taking away their cars for a week is admission that parents fear the children. That is not disciplinary but accommodating; the parents then drive them wherever they want to go. Parents become unpaid chauffeurs!

Worst of all, spoiled children never mature. The cry-babies will soon become the crying giant buffoons to whom the bells toll to their whims.  They ring the bells, and their parents respond with savory goodies or other nice things.

Jesus is the “Thing” to cherish, but children are pacified by the most unholy things. Taking them to church would be a holy thing to do, but holiness antagonizes both children and those adults whose natures are childish! Church is a precious privilege that parents present as a strong punishment. Church as become a means of punishing unruly children.

(3) People will oppress each other. What are all the riots about? People of all nations each oppressing the others. The youth, and even adults disguised as such, oppress even the ones whose job is to provide for them safety — the police. The police are the guardian angels that sacrifice their own safety that others may live.

Soldiers were even at the Cross ensuring that mob did not oppress the onlookers nor murder the apostles and family of Jesus. The centurions were the likely “angels” that yielded the sword to satisfy the crazed crowd. Longinus, the centurion, did not kill Jesus, but pierced the side of the man to show the crowd their bloody deed was finished. Were they the guardian angels that protected the Cross, or were they demons that killed Him? It was the chief priests, the guardians of the Temple, who were the demons (John 19:11)!

The world is full of the oppressed in this era. Everyone is a victim and even looking at them is oppression of some sort. The “Woke” mentality is the new rules for oppression. People are taught how to be victims of oppression. Never before has victimization been so majestic. Those who see themselves as victimized become the oppressors and brain-dead leaders.

The people do in fact oppress one another in a magnitude never seen before.

(4) The oppression will be man against man, neighbor against neighbor. Isaiah made a distinction therein — man against man. He knew the difference. Men did not oppress women in those days like they do at this time. Man has solen feminism from th4e feminine gender. The worst oppression against women is men acting like women when they are not. Transsexualism is the worst oppression that has ever existed. Jesus was mocked for being a king while wannabe kings surrounded Him. Now women are mocked for being women by men who wannabe women.

Neighbor against neighbor is friends against friends. At one time, neighbors were neighborly. Now, even I have had many friends and neighbors unfriend me on social media and their lack of contact reveals that even many close friends have unfriended me! What is the reasoning behind that? Because we think differently, hatred is just fine and dandy. “It is “cognaphilia” — fear of the minds of others and hating the thoughts of those who should be loved.

Children even dishonor their parents and grandparents for their “thought crimes.” Youths think differently, so rather than explore their own thinking, they attack or shun their much wiser elders.

(5) The young will rise up against the old, the nobody against the honored. There is a generation gap and each generation have become the chosen and peculiar people rather than Christians. The mobs who are fomenting insurrection are whom? College students and those who hang around colleges because of the gullibility of the young. Those protests are not just protests against civilization, but protests against God. They are akin to the mob who performed their manner of justice on Jesus who said, “They know not what they do” (Lule 23:34).

In like manner, the youth destroying campuses no very little about what they are doing; all the while they desire to preserve freedom and democracy, they are tools (and fools) of wicked ones that seek to destroy democracy. As most of them are women and progeny of Eve, the natures of many are as naïve as Eve’s. Women have hit the streets and led the mob because genetically, Satan found them the easiest to deceive (Gen 3:13).

The mobs on the street, just like the mob at the Cross, are “nobodies.” None of the mobsters that shouted, “Crucify Him; crucify Him!” have made a name for themselves. They were “nobodies” and in like manner the mob is strictly a venomous crowd of nobodies — faceless masked fools puppeteered by the unseen strings of wicked ones.

God showed Isaiah today way back then. He saw the mobs all over the world, choosing Nazism over freedom. He saw hatred operationalized globally like no other time in history. Hatred is now in vogue so long as God’s people are the hated! That is the Nazi way to their “Final Solution” that contrasts greatly to the final solution of Jesus — to love Him and your neighbors without regard to their genealogies.

 

 

 

 

 

THEY ARE AFTER YOU BY GETTING TO JESUS

 Conspiracy theories are continual and routine, but some laugh at conspiracy theorists. All conspiracies work to the advantage of THE Conspirator. All conspiracies are the brainchild of one major conspiracy. Of what conspiracy am I writing? Communism? Nazism? The Sicarii of the Roman age in Judea? All of them are bonified conspiracies because each bear the mark of Satan. All deny that God as sovereign. Even democracies, left to evil people, diminish God to elevate wicked ones.

Democracies are the least suspect; democracy is, “a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections” (Merriam-Webster 2023). Taken to the extreme, democracies are the founding principles of oligarchies wherein the most elite of the people are the representatives of the lesser people. Democracy without representation to soften it is chaos as scripture suggests; it is much like in ancient times, “(When) in those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Jud 17:6). That was ‘democracy’ and it was chaotic as our ‘democracy’ is at the present. We have been acclimated to the idea that democracy is the sponsor of freedom, albeit, as can be seen of the ‘woke’ crowd today, the world has become chaotic because of unlimited freedom, and again, without the buffer of Christianity to civilize the people.

Animals — the beasts — do what is right in their own eyes. They are instinctive and what they sense as necessary, pleasurable, or life sustaining; they will do with impunity. Pure democracy makes everyone a ‘king’ in their own eyes which leads to a system of continual warfare much like a jungle out there!

The root conspiracy is the Luciferin Conspiracy, to wit:

How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how you are cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For you have said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north… I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” (Isa 14:12-14)

To be the most Supreme God requires that the one true God be deposed. The way to do that is to depreciate His Sovereignty; God could either be killed or diminished from King of kings, Lord of lords, to servant of the people. No longer is God Sovereign but merely a servant — or genie – whose belly people ‘rub’ to get their ways.

Jesus, from whose belly spreads living waters (John 7:38); now Christians to even whom this applies… “Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things” (Phil 3:19). It is from the belly of Jesus that things like prosperity flows. The bellies of the people have become their ‘gods’ in a government for the people.

The crucifixion was a conspiracy; it was the ‘Luciferin Conspiracy’ that was planned before the beginning of time; it began with a morning meeting of the minds, “When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death” (Mat 27:1). That morning was planned long before just as the prophet Isaiah wrote, “How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!” If that is not clear, nothing is! Isaiah had seen that gathering from times past, calling Lucifer, “Son of the Morning.”

The religious leaders gathered that morning with Lucifer who was there in spirit.

When morning came, Satan was there waiting on Judas. Jesus had said, “I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven” (Luke 10:18). Jesus had seen the ‘worm’ falling just as Isaiah had written! Therein is the connection between Lucifer as Satan, Lucifer as the ‘Bringer of Life’ as his name means, and Satan as Lucifer, the ‘Adversary,’ whose plan or conspiracy was to unseat Jesus even if he had to kill to do so.

Jesus was aware of the Luciferin Conspiracy! At the Temptation of Jesus, the Devil and Jesus conversed; the Devil said, “If you therefore will worship me, all shall be yours,” to which Jesus answered him, “Get yourself behind me, Satan,” thus identifying Satan as the Devil and Lucifer.

Jesus was quite aware of the Luciferin Conspiracy, but none of Satan’s ‘accomplices’ were aware of it; they slept while Jesus prayed to God to end that Conspiracy. Their sleep was a lack of sobriety and vigilance while the Devil stalked Jesus (1 Pet 5:8).

There will always be conspiracies, but each one is the brainchild of Satan. Satan is the root-cause of all conspiracies because conspirators are of their father, the Devil, “You are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him” (John 8:44); that according to Jesus.

Conspiracies are all of Satan. Those who conspire against our nation are co-conspirators of Satan and their modus operandi is to trivialize God. You can see that conspiracy in action every day.

God is the Creator. The most direct way to trivialize God is for the people to create; hence the onset of gene-editing and artificial intelligence at the present time. The world’s genii attempt to pull the royal carpet from under Jesus using Cas9 as the ‘scissors’ and CRISPR as the paste to further alter Adam’s kind to make them a lesser kind. Yes, glorious man (Adam) has devolved into beasts, and if that is not enough, science will perform the greatest operation ever; them making another kind of synthetic ‘human’ so to speak.

Those meeting that morning conspired against Jesus but none of them did anything at the crucifixion. They were guilty of the greater sin, just as Jesus said to Pilate. Never look for the gun nor the puller of the trigger; always look for the bad guys behind the plan.

Right now, just who is it that leads the conspiracy? It is those that meet clandestinely before the rest of us are awake. The world sleeps right now as the conspiracy goes on. While the plan to kill God for good is in operation, people listen to deception as the media mocks those who believe in conspiracies. God is not dead, but from now on, godless men are in pursuit of Him, like Nimrod long ago, to prove that there is no God.

Imagine the surprise when the trumpet blows from above, declaring that Jesus is alive and well! Them the Luciferin Conspiracy will end with the death of the people since Jesus is beyond their reach.

The first time, Jesus was the ‘Lamb’ that was slain for us; the next time, the people will be the sheep that are slain for His Name sake. To get at Jesus, the conspirators will get you.

NARRATIVES, GOSSIPING, AND LIES

Each morning, my routine is to rise from my bed and read scripture on my computer before commenting in this forum. Each morning, before the Bible APP is clicked, the nation’s news blare before my eyes. I generally try to ignore the headlines because the text is usually blasé. It seems that the writers want the reader to read no further because their entire message is in the headline. For instance, this morning, Newsweek had as a headline, “Will Donald Trump Be America’s First Dictator?” Going almost unnoticed is the word, “opinion.”

When the text of the ‘opinion’ is read, it is just full of opinion; there is no substance to even lead to that opinion. It would be like me having a headline above this commentary, “JESUS HIDING IN THE CHURCHES,” to describe the Holy Spirit. Headlines are the pretty ‘wrapper’ but within the news is stale. The news media uses a well-known technique — bait and switch — just as any scammer does with their worthless products.

Donald Trump will not be a dictator and has said nothing to that effect. Dictator’s reign until they die, but Donald Trump indicated he would be a ‘dictator’ only on the first day to sign things back into law that Biden dictated to be removed on his first day.

However, this commentary is not about politics but about deception. The ‘news’ is supposed to be news! Newsweek and the others are no more than gossip columns to fuel socialist propaganda. In this age, ‘propaganda’ is called ‘narratives,’ and each day, the U.S. version of Marxist Pravda issues their version of the news that they wish was true. The commentators wish Trump had that desire all the while Biden was the ‘Mandator-In-Chief’ — the Little Dictator that Charlie Chaplin would mimic in days gone by!

Each day, the press comes up with some narrative. This morning, Newsweek stoked the fire that Trump plans on being a dictator. In the next few days, you will be overwhelmed with that and other dreamed up narratives. That Trump will be dictator will be repeated thousands of times, and it has already started. Newsweek was not the first to say that after all, but it has already followed the narrative.

My point in writing today is to say that the ‘Serpent’ was not a snake but a ‘narrative.’

Rest assured; Trump will not be a dictator, but will put a stronghold on those who would be with their one-party Democrat oligarchy!

A ‘narrative’ is, according to Merriam-Webster, “a way of presenting or understanding a situation or series of events that reflects and promotes a particular point of view or set of values.” The values of the Democrat Party are not moral values at all, but instruments for power. In biblical terms, their version of democracy is like ancient Israel’s during the priestly era; “In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Jud 17:5). Democracy in a nutshell, is as if everybody is a priest, each doing what is right in their eyes with turpitude, and neither moral nor spiritual.  

Democracies portend to be a government of the people, but unfortunately when they vote, they put their government in the hands of one person. Democracy is the avenue for dictatorship because the minority has little say in a majority led government. When the Democrats rally against MAGA, their purpose is to make the nation a one-party state. So far, as hard as they try, they have not done so, but a common technique is to propagate the notion that your opponents are doing what you are doing!

Narratives are subtilty since they promote a particular set of values. Narratives are cunning ways to twist the truth to suit the purposes of the speaker. As a Christian, I think of “the Serpent (who) was more subtill than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made” (Gen 3:1). The Serpent was not a talking viper, but a messenger (angel) of evil. The purpose of the Serpent was to present a narrative that was contrary to truth.

The Serpent is not an animal, but a demon spirit whose values it projected onto Adam and Eve. Because both of them lacked the knowledge of evil, knowing only good; the newsy Serpent preyed on their ignorance and innocence because to them all things were good. So, think of the Serpent, not as a “Beast” per se but a string of narratives.

Aldous Huxley admitted in the book, Brave New World, that “62,400 repetitions make one truth.”  He was implying that thousands of narratives become the truth. Marxists of all flavors depend on that, so when you read the ‘news,’ the veracity of what you read or hear must be considered. Trump will not be a dictator for even one day, he was being sarcastic because of the narrative. Marxists have no sense of humor but are great at stretching the lie until it becomes the truth.

Since Adam and Eve were ignorant, the Serpent said so only one time, and what he said became the truth. No repetition was required because the two were so gullible that they would swallow anything. It was likely not apples nor even figs that they swallowed, but the ‘Big Lie.’

The Big Lie was the tool of the German Nazi Marxist, Adolph Hitler — “a gross distortion or misrepresentation of the truth primarily used as a political propaganda technique.” In other words, a gross narrative!

Every day, most people hear gross distortions from the mainstream news media which so many never question. Generally, people lack knowledge of anything. They have been told day after day by the progressives that all things are good, even ‘the economy stupid’ in the worlds of Bill Clinton. Many constant repetitions have become the truth to them. People, like in the fall of Rome, are entertained so much that anything negative has become anathema to them. Keep people entertained and the truth will be obscured.

Things are not so swell and dandy right now but that is what we hear in the news. Those riots that we saw in the streets are not insurrections; they are not what your lying eyes see!

The Satanic narrative was “You shall not surely die” (Gen 3:4) but God fears that you will become the gods (Gen 3:5). You will be the master of your own domain, so to speak; you will be the ‘dictator,’ you stupid humans! The two bought into that narrative, even after one exaggeration.

Narratives are untruths — misinformation. There is some truth to them, but they are presented in a way to persuade differently. Trump did use the word ‘dictator;’ that is the truth; however, the news media failed to add, “for one day” and for what two causes. Trump was reinforcing the idea that he would not seek revenge and would not mandate like Biden. But now, it has been planted in the brainless minds of unquestioning people that Trump is an existential threat to democracy.

Narratives are much the same as gossip. The biggest difference is that it is massed produced and broadcast, not just to good friends, but to the world. Gossip is the spread of rumors; things that may be true but probably are not. Each day the news media gossips, and you listen and many of you believe it!

Gossip is the Serpent. It is not the physical form of the ‘Satan,’ Lucifer, but his cunningness. Nahas is mostly translated as ‘Serpent’ because “snakes in the Bible always represent some kind of mental process, usually intuitive and usually impure or otherwise detrimental” (Abarim Publications 2023). Hence, the form of the Serpent was not as a snake but a narrative.

The Devil — the Serpent — has a nature, to wit: “He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it” (John 8:44). “Father,” in that sense, is genetic. Lies originated from the Devil, Lucifer, and liars are of the genetics of the Serpent. People lie instinctively because it is genetic from original sin. The narratives we hear from day to day are the same old lies that the Serpent used. Human DNA is the ‘Serpent’ and its movement is with narratives. No wonder Jesus called the Pharisees vipers; their narratives were genetic from the Serpent.

God made a Law: “Do not spread false reports. Do not help a guilty person by being a malicious witness” (Exod 23:1). That is the news media’s narrative; they spread false reports to help the guilty person (Biden) and that makes the media a “malicious witness.”

God also said, “Do not go about spreading slander among your people” (Lev 19:6). Slander, it says harms people. Jesus was crucified because of slander. The chief priests repeated their accusations so much that it became the truth. Jesus never claimed to be either King of the Jews nor even a Roman Dictator; the media — the gossiping Pharisees of that day — repeated the slander so often that the unwitting Jews knew not what they were doing (Luke 23:34).

You that listen and vote without testing the veracity, are unwittingly out of ignorance, voting according to gossip.  Jonathan Gruber, the Democrat operative said that “They depended on the stupidity of the American voter” to pass their initiatives. The Serpent depended on that and so did the chief priests who killed Jesus with slander. They did not drive the nails nor piece His side, but their lying serpentine tongues caused Jesus’s death!

What upsets me is that people believe the narratives before the truth. Lying is instinctive and to be honest, believing a lie is less work than seeking the truth. The truth is painful! Many will still not believe their government all this time has been so corrupt! It hurts to admit that all our lives we have thought our leaders to be faithful all the while so many have chased the money and let America go down the drain.

Just as lying is genetic, accepting lies as truth is as well. When Jesus called the Pharisees ‘vipers’ it was because lying is in their genetic makeup, and since Eve is the “mother of all living,” all those that are living believe the lies because of their genetics.

It is so much easier to accept the lies — the narratives — than search for the truth.

HISTORY REPEATS, REPEATS AND REPEATS

Jesus still talking to the scribes and Pharisees said to them, “Whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted” (Mat 23:12), then He pointed out to them how they exalt themselves. Apparently, there were some good among them because Jesus said, “He that is greatest among you shall be your servant.” (Mat 23:11).

Greatness is generally attributed to those whose name is well known. However, being well-known is more of a curse than a blessing. Some in government, for instance, say they want to serve you, all the while making both a name and profit for themselves.

Pharisees were Jewish politicians and the scribes the ‘bureaucrats’ who traveled with them to support their narratives. Pharisees, once being great in Jewish history, desired to be great again. They most certainly aspired to political power for themselves. For them, Jesus was a roadblock to power who became the enemy of those who count. The Pharisees were basically ‘anti-Christers’ who desired anyone but Christ to lead them. They hated Jesus just because He was Jesus.

Jesus, on the other hand, had no desire to be King of the Jews, although as the ‘son of David’ he was one of the best known of the heirs to the throne of David.

Paul wrote about Jesus, “(He) made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross” (Ephes 2:7-8).

If Jesus had exalted Himself before men, He would have been abased, according to His own words. Furthermore, if He humbled Himself, He would be exalted, and for Christians, Jesus is indeed exalted.

How did Jesus demonstrate His humility? In many ways, but the most obvious was His ‘Triumphal Entry’ into Jerusalem. Jesus was to ride a donkey, accompanied by its mother, according to prophecy: 

 Tell you the daughter of Sion, “Behold, your King comes to you, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass,” and the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them, and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set Him thereon. (Mat 21:5-7)

 Jesus became ‘King of kings,’ in the manner of Caesar, but riding on a donkey. Contrast that entry to Jerusalem to victorious kings, dictators, and Caesars entering Rome. Each of them sat on a white horse and were exalted by the Roman citizens and governors.

Those who made a name for themselves did not exalt Jesus; they humiliated Him, and the humiliation made Him great in the eyes of those who knew the truth.

There was much politicking going on at the time of Jesus. Everybody but Jesus who had made a name for himself aspired to be king of the Jews: Herodians, Hasmoneans, Pharisees, thieves, zealots, and terrorist sicarii who killed with impunity to inherit the throne of David.

I am certainly not a proponent of the so called ‘wall of separation between state and religion.’ Why? Because the ‘wall’ has always been a one-way barrier, keeping Christians out of the government all the while allowing the government to abase religion, most often Christianity.

Note that Rome was always open to any religion, even Judaism, but when Christianity came to their city, suddenly tolerant Romans became persecutors of Christians.

Only the apostate church has been welcomed in Rome to this day.

The tolerant Roman government, since Nero, has always diminished Jesus. As Romans persecuted Christians, Christianity multiplied. Ironically, it was the intolerance of the Romans that promulgated the Law of God, “The Lord God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it” (Gen 2:15). The Romans did that and magnified Jesus by persecuting Him and Christians. Rome grew Christianity, not by worship, but by intolerance.

When God put mankind over the Garden (Israel), it was God’s way of promulgating the Garden of the Lord; first it was with the Assyrians, then the Babylonians, followed by the Persians, Greeks, and Romans. God was using mankind to dress and keep His Garden, Israel. [1]

As the people became more intolerant of and hateful toward Christianity, the more it grew.

In this age, politics works the same way. The spread of Christianity has always been political. Even the humiliation of Christ — the crucifixion — was a very political event in the same manner as Julius Caesar was killed by aspiring politicians led by Brutus, Longinus, and Albinas. They killed Caesar to attain power for themselves, but it would not be them that attained power. Their failed government was a sort of triumvirate like the previous Roman one that had power, but it was never meant to be!

Just as Caesars would enter Rome after their victories, such as Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian after the destruction of the Temple, Jesus entered in triumph to Jerusalem as if he would be King. The people cheered because ethnic Judiah had been long without a king.

Although they cheered then for the assumed victor — Jesus — the would be king was assassinated by conspirators who did not want Israel to be great again, but for themselves have the power again. At that time, the Romans were a sort of a protectorate to keep malefactors such as Barabbas and the thieves on their crosses from gaining power.

You have likely never been taught that, but the crucifixion of Jesus was very much like the assassination of Julius Caesar by the pretenders to become a triumvirate: Brutus, Longinus, and Albinas.

The Jewish contenders for the throne of Judea was also a triumvirate in the manner of the Romans. According to Josephus, factions led by Simon bar Giaora, John of Gischala, and Eleazar ben Simon destroyed the Temple while the future Caesar, Titus, tried to save what he could of both the Temple and the city.

It was likely members of those factions who were on their crosses beside Jesus.

All that to say that Jesus was assassinated by those who sought political power.

Only Pontius Pilate who was acting king and Caesar held the power in Jerusalem that day, and even he sought to save Jesus. It was really Rome that dressed and kept the ‘Garden’ for it to multiply!

Jesus could not be defeated by humiliation, so since He stood in their way to power, Jesus had to die. His death was indeed a political conspiracy with one common theme — Anyone but Jesus. They were ‘Never Christers’ in the same manner as “Never Trumpers’ of this era.

That is not to say that Trump is a ‘Christ,’ but is in a way, a ‘Pontius Pilate’ who believed that Jesus was who He said He was.

Pilate endeavored to salvage Jesus. He saw no problem in Jesus being great again. The Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem had not been a threat to the rule of Pilate, but to those who craved the Judean throne. The popularity of Jesus did not trouble the Romans because he taught love and peace. What troubled Caesar and Pilate was the shadow government under the aforenamed Jewish Triumvirate! Members of their factions were there the day that Jesus was assassinated and one of the criminals escaped his punishment. My bet is that Barabbas many have appeared at the destruction of Jerusalem as freed prisoners often are.

There is a shadow government out to re-crucify Jesus. It is a worldwide conspiracy that has been known for time immemorial. It is not led by Obama or even Biden. Neither is it by Donald Trump. The conspiracy is the Devil, Lucifer, himself who issued a manifesto long ago: 

‘The Luciferin Manifesto:’

I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. (Isa 14:13-14)

That was ‘Satan’s Manifesto’ the day that Jesus died. Judas, with Satan in him, died that day, and the Holy Ghost escorted Satan and sin to Hell.

Lucifer has his ‘godhead’ in the manner of the Christian Godhead. Whereas the Christian Godhead is “King of kings, and Lord of lords” in one Person, Jesus (Rev 17:14), the Luciferin godhead is the Devil ‘Satan,’ the Beast, and the False Prophet (Rev 20:10). Those images in a person makes him the ‘Antichrist” whoever he may be at the time.

In a sense, the end-of-time government will be a godhead or triumvir much like the Godhead and the Roman Triumvirate.

The modern ‘triumvir’ is the foul global government, the apostate church, and shadow of dignitaries that run everything from their cocoon in group meetings and who decide the fate of everything. They dictate things to the world governments and those governments make them law. Even the universal church heeds their commands as if God is sub-servient to mankind!

That, readers, is why I promote Trump for president. He is the “Pontius Pilate’ of our era who, although a great sinner, sees Jesus as God. Most of the other contenders for world leader are mere instruments in Satan’s conquest for power.

No, Biden is not the Antichrist nor is he Satan. He is a ‘useful fool’ who obeys the command of the shadow government and who seems to be paid well for his part in overthrowing the dominion of Christ in this New Age — The Age of Aquarius — the ‘Luciferin Age.’

This present age is Lucifer exalting himself. Why cannot people see that?

[1][1] Scripture supports the notion that Israel is the Garden of God in Eden before time began. Likewise geographic names supplement that notion. Lot even saw the land of Canaan as the “Garden of the Lord” (Gen 3:10) and the Jordan River is the Naral Ha Yarden in the Hebrew — the ‘Garden of the Lord.’

THE TWO-IN-ONE

Jesus spoke in parables and this time it was a parable of His own death. The householder employed husbandmen to run the vineyard in his absence.

The householder owned the estate, and he was the noble. It was his to do with as he pleased and his workers to do his pleasure.

“There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country” (Mat 21:33).

Compare that to the Garden of Eden. God was the certain householder and without a doubt the Garden belonged to God who had planted it. The householder of the parable would be God who planted a Garden in Eden.

In this case, the Garden was a vineyard. God planted it Himself and then left the Garden for Adam to administer. Himself was in Adam. Adam would be the right hand of God. He was without a name, but his kind was Adamic. Adam’s himself was without a name. As the only one of that kind, like God, he was called by the name of his kind.

Adam was the first ‘plant’ in the Garden, and he was one of many varieties of live but he alone was dominant. It was Adam who was ‘elected’ to be planted rather than any of the other kinds. “The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed” (Gen 2:8). God planted a living soul that was His Image (Gen 1:27).

‘Eastward’ in this context is not the best translation. Since the Sun comes up in the East, the implication is that God planted the Garden before time (Strong 2006). Therefore, the Garden of Eden was created before time began. Hence, the ‘day’ translation could best be described as dynamic processes, each of which lasted ages of different lengths.

The parable was about growing vines in a vineyard. Jesus revealed the parable somewhat, when He said, “I am the true Vine, and my Father is the Husbandman” (John 15:1). The Greek word, ampelos (vine) implies two-from-one.

A vine is thus a binary multiplier — two from one, four from two, sixteen from four, and so on to a multitude from the first one. As the Vine, Jesus is the Invisible Image and the progenitor of the multitude in the gospels.

The husbandman in the parable is the vine dresser. If you remember, the first man was assigned the role of husbandman in the Garden of God, “The Lord God took the man (adam), and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it” (Gen 2:15). That nameless man was assigned a vocation. He would be the ‘husbandman’ in the absence of the ‘Householder,’ on whose Estate he resided.

As the two-from-one, Jesus was the Vine and the Husbandman. His role was like a king to Caesar in whose absence, the king or governor became, not only the caretaker, but the Caesar. So, think of the ‘Householder’ as being a type of Caesar with both being the caretaker and the householder.

“But,” you say, “Jesus is the Vine and His Father the Husbandman!” Are you forgetting that the Vine and the Husbandman are the two-from-one? Jesus was both the Vine and the Husbandman, and John verified that (John 1:1-14).

Returning to the parable, the ‘vineyard’ would be the Garden that God planted. Its ‘crop’ was not grapes at all, but the Estate of God is a Garden of living souls that Jesus, as the Word, planted in the Garden before time began.

Jesus said for them to hear another parable; the one which I have been commenting qbout: 

There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. (Mat 21:33-39)

 The ‘householder’ is the master of the house that owns the plantation. A plantation is the ground on which things are planted. In this case, it refers to the LORD GOD as the Master and the Garden of the Lord, the ‘Plantation’ on which there was planted a Garden of the Lord.

Not only was it the Lord’s Garden, but it was the ground (Hebrew; adam) on which the LORD GOD planted the Image of Himself, so to speak. It was His own Divine Seed that was planted, and since the person, Adam, was of God and the ground, he was called the ‘Ground’ (Adam), or more precisely the dust, or atoms, of the ground. Mankind to this day have the same composition and in the same proportion as the elements of the ground itself.

Adam would be the ‘Vine’ because with that one man came two. Adam was the Vine that God planted and from that one seed came two human beings; Adam and his woman.

Consider what Paul wrote, “The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening Spirit” referring to Adam’s kind and Jesus. Adam and his woman were the first man, two-from-one. They were of one flesh, as Jesus said it; “The two shall be one flesh: so then they are no more two, but one flesh (Mark 10:8), speaking of the first male and female.

The male and the female were one. They were the ‘vine’ that would multiply. That ‘crop’ failed (Gen 3) so, the LORD GOD Himself became the “Husbandman” as well as the ‘Householder.’

Adam #1 (Jesus is the ‘Last Adam.’) [1] was planted in the Garden. God took his soul that was made first (Gen 1) added the elements to make a visual image, then planted the living soul in the ground to grow and multiply its seed. Jesus was the ‘quickening spirit’ or the Miracle Grow® that worked wonders in the Garden.

Because a deadly spirit got into the Garden, the LORD GOD fired the first husbandmen and sent them to work another place in another realm. [2]

The Lord God became the two-from-one (the ‘Vine’ and the ‘Husbandman’ as one), to wit: “In the beginning (before time) was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1).

In ancient days, the “beginning” would be said, “Eastward” since the Sun rises in the East. It was not directional at all but before time. Hence, the Word and the LORD GOD were One before time began. Before Jesus went to Paradise, He made a bequest to the Father, that “they may behold My Glory, which You have given Me: for You loved Me before the foundation of the world” (John 17:24). The LORD GOD said Jesus loved Him before time began.

Exactly when did time begin? With decay — with death. Time is the measure of living organisms and with the first sin, death ensued. (I submit that time began with the first sin and with the establishment of a Garden of Adam in the world.) In other words, the world was already there when time began; no wonder it is so ancient!

Recently, I went camping… about two months ago. I had put two slices of bread in my Tupperware® container and sealed it. The container was sandwich shaped so consider the bread the organic ‘soul’ that was covered with a Tupperware ‘body.’

When I finally checked my backpack, after two months time, those two slices of bread remained fresh even after all that time. If the vacuum had been perfect, in theory, that organic bread would have lasted forever, if the moisture was drained off early on.

Given a perfect environment in another realm, theoretically mankind could exist forever if they were engulfed in the quickening spirit (living water — the Holy Spirit) to keep them robust.

Not that the heavens are a vacuum but with no contamination, the Garden of God in Paradise, since it was perfectly good (Gen 1:31), organisms would live forever as if in a perfect vacuum. In other words, Paradise would have no foul air to degenerate living souls, and since souls are not even organisms, they would endure forever in the Garden of God.

Referring again to the parable, it should be obvious that Jesus was referring to Paradise in heaven where the Father of the Godhead is the ‘Householder,’ and in this case the two-from-one — the Husbandman as well with the Son having the authority of the Husbandman.

It is interesting that the parable says, “and hedged it round about.”

Satan accused God of putting a hedge around Job, His servant (Job 1:10; 3:23). The accusation was that Job was safe in the Garden of God as one of His ‘plants.’ The ‘hedge’ was literally a ‘restraint” (Strong 2006). There was a restraint placed around Paradise as well; after Adam colluded in sin with the woman, “He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the Way of the Tree of Life” (Gen 3:24). If there was a Garden with some type of gate, there must have been a hedge around the Garden.

Again, east is not directional; it is before time; hence time began when Adam was placed into the world. Since time has no direction nor substance, there is no such thing as time before it is experienced. It is time that kills. That piece of bread that I enshrined in a vacuum, experienced almost no time and it remained fresh.

There is a scientific experiment wherein an old fashion time clock is placed in a nearly perfect vacuum. When the alarm rang there was no sound since there was no medium for sound waves in a vacuum. It rings but does not alarm.

An alarm comes when the set time is reached. Because it was a mechanical clock, its mechanics indicated that time had elapsed, but if the time had been measured by an organism, no time would have passed. Time is therefore not the ticking of a mechanism but the decaying of an organism.

God enshrined both Adam and Eve in coats of skin (Gen 3:21) to endure the world. No longer in Paradise, God covered them just like we would cover plants with the last frost. It was literally covers for their exposure. Perhaps it was not skins at all but the ‘hedge’ as if Paradise was still with them and wherever they would go, they would be in a near Paradise wherein decadence does not exist.

No longer in a perfect place, say a “perfect vacuum,” they would be safe in an imperfect vacuum. They could endure the world as if they were in the paradisical Garden, or a Paradise on Earth. Before sin, they would have been in the realm of heaven, but God transplanted them into another ‘Garden of the Lord’ (Gen 13:10) along the River of the Garden (Naral Ha Yarden) — the Jordan River.

Lot saw that place as he entered Zoar, apparently where Job had lived long before. Could it be that God had indeed put a hedge around the earthly Garden Paradise in the same manner as Paradise in Heaven, or was Job wearing the ‘Garment of Adam’ that the Book of Jasher indicates was passed down from Adam to Noah and onward? Would that Garment be the ‘Whole Armor of God” (Ephes 6:11) of which Paul wrote?

Is the apparel of the armor the full covering like the ‘hedge’ of fig leaves that Adam and Eve put only around their pudenda? Had Adam attempted to put his own ‘hedge’ around them knowing full-well their punishment was in a sort of prison beyond their safe-space?

Since Eve became the goddess (Gen 4:1), had the male become the god, creating their own safe spaces — aprons of fig leaves, knowing full well that they would be transplanted as a very different kind in God’s Garden in the world? Was he creating their own ‘vacuum’ over their offensive genitalia to keep themselves virile? That seems to be the idea!

The ‘winepress’ of the parable was literally digging a drain for the juices to flow. (Strong 2006).

God dug the winepress at the crucifixion. As Jesus died the multitude beheld the digging of the winepress when, “the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent” (Mat 27:51). The ‘Householder’ did that! Where was the Father during the death of His Son? Making the rocks rent for the ‘wine’ from the body of Jesus to flow from Jesus to the ground, or if you remember, the ‘ground’ was Adam. [3]

The Householder did something unusual for a Garden. “He built a tower.”  What in the world for? Not as a scarecrow, but a watch tower “to repel a hostile attack or to enable a watchman to see in every direction” (ibid).

The ‘garden’ of the householder, was Israel, which was surrounded by Eden. The land of the tribe of Dan was known before as ‘Eden’ and the Gulf of Aden (Eden) is in the entryway to Arabia at the nation of Yemen whose major city is Aden. Israel is the ‘midst of the Garden,’ on Earth as it was in heaven. I am suggesting that God made parallel realms of different ‘charges’ — one positive and one negative.

Could it be the coat of skin was not a coat from any animal, but skins like the beasts, so to dress and keep them? Could it be that the nakedness of Adam and Eve was not flesh but them without human flesh like the beasts? The beasts have theirs but to cover their shrewdness (ibid) — their innermost existence or brutish nature?

The “Tower” of the vineyard was a ‘Tree’ in its midst. The ‘tower’ in the Garden of the Lord was the ‘Tree of Life.’ It was there for the safety and longevity – life. That same ‘Tree’ is the one that Jesus hung from when He was crucified. It stood in the middle of the Garden of God in Israel. The Cross is the Watch Tower and on that ‘Tower’ Jesus watched as they persecuted Him, who Himself was the ‘Tree of Life.”

Remembering that the “Vine’ is two-from-one, The Householder put the Husbandmen in charge of the ‘vineyard.’ The Husbandman had the authority of the Householder. The Householder’s  ‘right hand’ was the Husbandman who had the same interests as if He was the Master. In the parable, the Householder and the Husbandman represent the two facets of God — the Father and the Son.

The householder went out into a far country, the parable says. How far did God go? Into another realm. He left Jesus, the Husbandman, in the near country (the world) to disperse His wine without charge; the ‘wine,’ representing the blood of Jesus (1 Cor 11:26).

While the Householder was on His Throne in heaven, the Husbandman was on His ‘footstool’ on Earth, so says the LORD GOD: “The heaven is My throne, and the Earth is My footstool” (Isa 66:1).

So far, the Husbandman was the Son of the Father, but before that arrangement, there were several other husbandmen who were cruel.

The last Husbandman was the Son of the Householder. It would be His Estate someday and He would be a fair Master, even a servant to the bondsmen who worked the Garden. Because He was the Master’s Son, the Son was as the Master.

In Roman times, the son was the right hand of the father, not in position, but authority. The Son of the Householder was no other than Jesus. He was revealing His Identity as Father God using a parable that only those who truly knew Him would understand.

The bondsmen would have reverence for the son as if he was the father and owner of the estate.

The son was not an ordinary husbandman. He had a stake in the plantation. In the last days, the entire garden would belong to the son, and as the very image of the father, he could probate the will of the father as if the garden, the bondsmen, and the harvest were his. That is Jesus. He is the Son, and the bondsmen fellow heirs of His. The bondsmen, if they had served well, would inherit their parts of the Kingdom of God just as the sons and adopted sons of Israel inherited the Garden of God — the land of Israel.

Who were the bad husbandmen? Annas and Caiphas, the High Priests who had the dishonor of killing the Good Husbandman since the Householder seemed to be far away, even another realm!

Jesus had told Pilate that it was not him that would kill Him, but “He that delivered Me unto you has the greater sin” (John 19:11). “He,” just like the ‘Vine’ is two-in-one. “He” was the High Priest Annas and his right hand, Caiaphas, acting with the same authority that Annas had before when he alone was the chief priest.

The several other bad householders were the five sons of Annas: Eliazer, Jonathan, Mathias, Theophilus, and Annas the son of Annas. Caiaphas, who was high priest was the son-in-law and adopted son of Annas. By the time of Caiaphas, he thought that the Estate — the ‘Vineyard’ belonged to the House of Annas, and that Annas was the ‘householder’ and Caiaphas the ‘husbandman.’

In other words, Jesus saw it coming and revealed what was about to happen in a parable. What would have anyone thought if Jesus had accused Annas and Caiaphas outright? That Jesus was a conspirator rather than a Savior!

[1] The intermittent ‘Adams’ were Eve’s kind since Adam named her cunning kind after the first sin and her beguilement.

[2] I believe that Eden was the place in Heaven whereon the LORD GOD created a Paradise and populated it. When the adamah were cast out of the Garden of the Lord; they were cast out into the world, so that man could run the garden that He had made in the world… a non-paradisical garden that Genesis chapter three aptly describes.

[3] In my book, The Skull of Adam, I contended that Adam was buried beneath Calvary — ‘the place of the skull’ of Adam to cleanse his sins by the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus.
