I posted on Facebook the other day a passive aggressive cloak and dagger very conflicted response to a person who is so ill in their prejudices that it would probably bother them none if they knew that they were being admonished. I can’t go much further with why I did not directly address them. Suffice it to say it would affect more than just me and this particular person.

So, here’s my altruism posted to Facebook:

“True strength is not displayed by repetition of ignorant blind faith. Rather, true strength is engendered by an ethical and moral impetus. Such impetus carries its own ‘will’ or ‘direction’. Furthermore, this moral impetus with directed will ( with a moral compass ) not only finalizes its motion at its terminal point or target” but expresses an eternal continuum of goodness as the essence of this moral impetus”.

Then, as was expected, a ‘participation reaction statement’ came not too long after.

This was not the person that I was directing the statement at, by the way.

Nonetheless, they said to me:

“Prosperity can come with perseverance of a plan”

(Admittedly, I got cocky and asked about their ‘alliteration’ skills)

So, let’s define what I had really said:

I was making a definitive statement or ‘maxim’  that one could ascertain ‘postulates’ from:

From my maxim: *True strength is not displayed by repetition of ignorant blind faith but engendered by an ethical and moral impetus* I entwined the following postulates:

Postulate 1)  I implied that “strength” comes from ‘that which is good’.

Postulate 2) I implied that ‘ethics’ and ‘morals’ engender the impetus by which ‘strength’ is active, mobile, viable and empowered.

Postulate 3) By implication, I delineated ‘blind faith’ from morals and ethics (the ‘handling’ of morals).

Postulate 4) I implied that sustainability was found in morals

Postulate 5) I implied that by eliminating morals and ethics we could therefore act on ‘blind faith’ because there is no substance upon which to act with and such a ‘freedom’ from morality now allows us to act on blind faith ( In other words, “blind faith” and the activity developed from it, is immoral. This puts the western church into a conundrum). 

Postulate 6) I implied by eliminating morals and ethics that ‘strength’ is illusory and not sustainable and the ‘resolve’ would be ‘blind faith’ or ‘fantastic thinking’ – a.k.a. ‘Fantasy’ or ‘Phantasmagoria’-i.e., bizarre or fantastic combinations, collections or assemblages of ideas, icons, images that are in shifting patterns—-much like the mosaic church windows which actually depict the problem I’m referring to.

Postulate 7) I implied that a ‘strength’ based on illusory blind faith IS AN exercise of the subjective nature without ontological reference. That is, the will of the id or ‘the set of instinctual desires’- when acted out through a ‘mosaic mind’, concludes to delusion and eventual failure of direction, purpose, plan and failure to continue the ‘will’ of TRUTH, not the WILL of limited-myopic self.

After making my “simple” Maxim—-this person said that I was countering him. This person said: “All I was doing was supporting your statement but you keep challenging and dismiss me on this post”.

It’s funny how ‘statements’, when pregnant with meaning (supported by many entwinements, in this case), can “offend” those who have a different, let’s say, world view.

Then, I said to this person:  “I’m definitely not trying to challenge or dismiss you.

Then, I said, “The differences that can be ascertained  in our statements are as follows: Hitler had an idea of prosperity with a plan. He certainly persevered for a time. Hitler’s perseverance was only sustainable for a short time due to a lack of civil morals. Though Hitler had a ‘code of conduct (one could say a ‘type of morals’) it certainly wasn’t a code of conduct that was in continuity with the rest of the human race.

You see, what I’m saying is: Hitler did not act on ‘ethics’ and ‘morals’ befitting the human race. His ‘strength’, by his own life’s definition, failed him because world domination by means of ethnic cleansing and creating the ‘pure’ race was not sustainable. Therefore, that ‘type’ of strength failed him. It’s math, it’s inevitable.

This person continued to act as if I were talking to him; nearly comically to me, not them. That is, something was touching at their soul.

Then, *the catch*. I asked them to stop responding/ reacting. I told them that they were ‘reacting’ to an idea held in their own mind. I told them that apples to oranges is what you’re comparing. Mine is an ethical one…yours is a format to accomplish. I said, in and of itself, yours is not nefarious, but, given into the wrong hands, it is. Mine is governed by itself: goodness, —-ethics and morals are caused by this goodness which gives impetus to the strength and directs the strength with it’s eternal sustainability. Such a sustainability is eternal but can and does perform in our tempo or temporal clause. That is to say, eternal goodness acts upon us until our time is done with this or that. This person STILL continued to ‘challenge’ me because they didn’t understand that their feeling of getting burned was not by me. I said, “warning, don’t continue this conversation—-it’s wasn’t directed at you initially, but, it is becoming by itself more directed at you until one of us, or both, or neither, is filtered with its reason. Finally, I asked: “Are you the one who says, ‘any good n….. is a dead n….. and any good democrat is a dead democrat?! Because if YOU ARE I am totally disgusted with you and a social, moral, spiritual judgement will set itself upon you!!’ Are YOU that person or not!??” They said, “absolutely not”.  I said, “thank you, have a great day”. Didn’t hear from them after.

I want to show the ‘mechanism of failure’ is not necessarily in the ‘sack’, ‘Saeculum’, or ‘secular’ sense. That is, both “christian” and “non-christian” *conundrums* are not necessarily on equal playing grounds when one of the two (or both) are acting with fraudulent representation.

“Blind Faith”, as defined by the modern ‘church’, doesn’t necessarily use the word  “blind”  to connote their ‘belief’ but they most certainly do ‘believe’ in ‘blindness’ as ‘ignorance to something’ and make it the only moral way by which they should operate their “true faith”.  Somehow, this has become a laudable ‘ethic’ in ‘the church at large’. This is also an example of falsely moralizing a term.

The ancient Greek (immoral or amoral) used the term “aletheia (alle’ to wander/ theia {with} the goddess)” as a valid term for “Truth”—whether they practiced it or not. Therefore, to the pagan Greek, they knew what Truth meant. It meant to trust in the goddess and act by her lead. Interestingly, it is a ‘blind term’ to act upon….that is, “to be blind to your will and follow the WILL of the goddess as She guides you through the Forest”. 

Such is one of the conundrums distilled here: the ‘christian’ *believes* that willing to act by willful blindness is a pass to not know, to be lazy, to not exegete, to not parse and apply, ….hence, immoral christian agnosticism.  I have known many agnostics who are not lazy, do believe in Christ, but admit what they DON’T know. Many agnostics, i think, are more ‘moral’ than the ‘christian’ who makes their ‘belief’ *agnoia*. 

Many of the ‘churches’ have created a fantasy of agnoia or ‘agnosticism’ that is immoral, by their terms that they fail to see. There is an apocalyptic ‘christianity’ that is alive now that neither exists in the sack of humanity or the well thought out discourses of the early church fathers. There is a failure to exegete to know where they come from, yet, claim the ‘appellate’, “Christian”.  The modern apocalyptic immoral agnostic christian neither matches in morals or substance of existence  the language which conveyed apogee truths found in the realm of pagan Epic dramas, Pagan poems and Greek philosophies which so used the etymologies of Homeric myths’ vocabulary. Neither does this ‘modern Christian’ regard the Reason by which the martyrs of the Apostolic-First Century Christianity lived and died by.

Therefore, the illogical is not moral. Rather, the illogical is always deviously created in a vacuum to operate in shadows for its own desires. It would take great effort to ‘deviate’ from that which has naturally flowed by it’s own poetry since the dawn of consciousness.

END OF THE WORLD, the APOCALYPSE and ARMAGEDDON

Post Tribulation *rapture* is a coherent doctrine that confirms the ‘harpadzo’ or ‘snatching up’ by Christ in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 at the Last Trump (1 Corinthians 15:52). To qualify this phrase, “snatching up” or “caught up”: “caught up” is an Anglicized and ‘child-buffered’ word which is used *euphemistically*.

The classical Greek term “harpadzo” was employed the same way the Bible used it: ‘overpowering’, especially as in “rape”, “the act of the eagle’s talons which seize, puncture, carry off their prey”, etc..  Hence, this verse verse denotes the violent overtaking of our wills into His where we are no more ourselves but His.

The *signs* are in the suffering through the Tribulation (7 angels, 7 vials, 7 churches,  and 7 plagues.  *Easy believism* and no suffering “doctrines” make the church lulled to sleep. Such doctrines are found in the false doctrine of health, wealth, prosperity, feel good, etc that is being promoted by many popular evangelists of our day. Sadly, these easy-feel good doctrines have found their way into every facet of the Babelized earth. There used to be a Rome to escape from, there used to be a Babylon to escape from- no longer. The entire earth is sick with these infestation doctrines. How is there to be a confirmation of the Holy Spirit if there is no suffering!? 2 Timothy 3:12- “All that shall live Godly shall suffer persecution”.  In Matthew 7:21 Jesus tells us of *a kind of minister* that will be doing, professing, proclaiming certain doctrines. Jesus talks here of these particular people in the last Days saying, “ not everyone that says unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that do with the will of the father which is in heaven. Verse 22 many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? And in your name have we not cast out devils? And in your name done many wonderful works? Verse 23 and then will I profess unto them depart from me you that work iniquity”. 

It is at the “Last Trumpet ( of the 7 ) that we see Christ’s return (Revelation 8:1-ff).  The “harpadzo”- or “snatching up” is at the end of the Tribulation is mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24:29:  Jesus says, “Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened and the moon shall not give her light and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. And then shall appear the sign of the son of man in heaven and then shall all of the tribes of the earth morning and they shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory and he shall send his angels with a great shout  of a trumpet and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds from one end of heaven to the other the other”. 

We also have another good eschatological reference point in Luke 21:29-ff where Jesus tells us that “When the *fig tree (Israel)* is back in its own land that THIS generation (Jewish term: ca 70-80 years) shall see ALL things come to pass (concerning the end of the world). What so many good Christian eschatologists fail to teach is that Revelation ( John’s Apocalypse ) 1) wasn’t the end of the world until the last trumpet where the elect would THEN see Him 2) the motifs of the judgements of the 7 trumpets are retold in a layering and suturing to express God’s “dimensional” language to us. For example, the 7 trumpets are the 7 vials are the 7 churches are the Seven Angels are the Seven Stars as we see in the “glossary”, if you will, found in Revelation 1:20 and in the Jewish style of writing by going back, repeating, revamping, recapping. Finally, this final act “at the last Trumpet ‘will cause all to changed in the blinking of an eye where this corruptible shall become incorruptible” <—1 Corinthians 15:52 and it is found I. 2 Peter 3:10 —-“the elements ( stocheia—Greek: building blocks of our existence) will melt with a fervent heat at the Day of the Lord as He comes as a thief in the night, coming unexpectedly”.  Interestingly, the Greek reads that Christ, as a ‘Klepto’ or thief will rob the creation of its light, elements, time, space.  Again, careful reading to the original Greek text.

For now, what’s left to look for? Revelation 13 makes it clear of a one world system with a mark. This will be 3 ½ years into the BEGINNING of the 7 Trumpets or 7 years of Apocalypse. 

We will look to Ezekiel 37 and 38 concerning Russia, Iran and China to attack Israel at The Hill of Geddo or Armageddon at the last point of the Apocalypse (last of the 7th year/ 7 trumpets).  

We might very well study Daniel 8 and 9 to see the character of the Anti-Christ. 

Much more will I attempt to fill in from this fist blog.

Restating part one, addendums, extra mentions and exonerations

Technically, the term,‘belief’, never meant to act in “blindness” until our recent perversion of this term—that is, the ‘moralization’ of this term.  Initially, the term, “belief”, would have carried a primitive ‘scientific’ connotation. I also condemn (Latin: damnus -‘critique’’ {not send to hell}) the scientific community when they condemn the ‘believing’ communities for employing ‘faith’ or ‘belief’. Such ‘science’ such be criticized for not doing their research into their word usage. No word, no act, no energy comes out of a vacuum. There’s always a ‘string’ attached; you Quantum P-braners know what I’m talking about! 🙂

Origin of “belief (noun)” and “faith (verb)”

“Bheidh” is the Proto Indo European/ Kurgan root for “belief”. “Bheidh” carries a collage of meaning. It carries with it the meaning of “abode” or “abide”. As the Holy Spirit ‘abides’ in us; as the Holy Spirit makes His “abode” in us. It is a place of resting, trusting, etc.  King David “trusted” that he could kill the Giant. Not because he “saw” it but because he had been protecting sheep since his youth with his slingshot. David had “FAITH” in his past *accounts*. David had taken a ‘marking’ or ‘talley’ of his kills of predator animals that had the nature to kill his gentle sheep. This *kind* of faith is not to be moralized.

Such a “Faith” as David’s has been perverted by false moralists to say, “David’sthe type of faith was ‘blind’ “. It was not. Moreover, let’s turn it around: today’s moralist could use the ‘modern’ sense of ‘faith’ to say, “one must *act* in blind trust and go forth. This is unsound doctrinally and clashes with David (who was the ultimate example of “Trusting” in God as a mere human), any military action past or present, science, music, art…etc.

Another shade of error:  to act “blind” is separate from acting on the “unseen” from which we know makes sense in the Gestalt fashion. Much like the Holy Spirit is always with us but makes sense to us in the here and now. Yet, while Jesus was only here for a period of time in the flesh, His *Acts* were quantum in their meaning. HE fulfilled the Father’s written book about HIM before HE walked the earth. Therefore, each act fulfilled the next as a tightly woven poem. And, it is only through the Spirit can we “See” this Logos walked the Father’s preordained pathway.

Both the Holy Spirit and Jesus are “blind” to us now, because we don’t physically see them, but their substantial natures solidified one another in our worldviews if we are calibrated to look through these lenses. In this kind of Trust, faith, belief, Jesus, the Father, and Holy Spirit are not ‘blind things’ to us.

Many modern “christianities” have made “Faith” a ‘blind thing’ partly because it is much easier to control the ‘flock’. When there is a *command* to act on the illogical, then, power is given to the leaders. “Faith” became an implemented word for those ministers who would abuse their sheep. Never before have we seen this word, “Faith”, be so abused!  Yet it is greed, power, herding of the masses, etc. by ministers that have allowed it to be so mistranslated. Distilled down to it’s primal meaning: keeping the sheep blind equals money and power.

In the face of so many ministers is the knowledge of the original Greek and Hebrew Bible given, yet, they do nothing to aid the knowledge of this or many other terms. The ministers do not encourage the ‘flock’ to study, to know, to exegete, to exhaust the Scripture. There would be questions then! There would be a need for a Teacher of the Word who could answer and keep in check Biblical error! For God’s sakes, I need it!  There would be a counter balance to power given to the minister.

Sadly, I have been told from the highest level of my former “church” this past couple of years that I was weird for wanting to know the Greek and Hebrew. That I was ‘different’. They told me, “the study of Greek and Hebrew is ‘crazy, too much, too intense, etc.”. From this mindset, and the courses of actions, sociologically, I’m gone from this club. It took my wife, in different ways, to see the selfish side of this minister. As Covid hit in full force during December of 2020, this minister continued to push for *THE FAITHFUL* to ‘fill the pews’. That the “FAITHFUL” would not be deterred. All while, we encountered deaths by COVID in our “church”.  One way or the other, “FAITH”, “Belief”, “Trust”, etc. has been perverted by this man. He is only one of the other high percentages of ministers who do the exact same thing!

1) Federal government = Fader, Pater, Patri, —-labial-dental-rotex. Father-Government

2) Metropolis=Mother, Matri, Mordor, Matron, Matrix, etc. Mother-Government

3) Infantry = infantus, infant, infaunt, ‘in’-not/ ‘fari’-to speak. //P.I.E. root: ‘bha-‘ = “to speak, tell, say”—-plus ‘in (not)’.

4) Villian=Villager/ villa, ‘one who lived outside the ‘house’ of the Father. Sometimes, —and later, the Old English combined the meaning of ‘outside’ the house and bad/ criminal. The Amoral sense would hold, ‘one who lives in the village

5) Heathen=one who lives on the Heath, the uncultivated person living in an uncultivated area, Ie, ‘the heath’.

6) Pagan = “one who is on a different *page* than you. Paganus (Latin)-‘country’, ‘backwards’, —- not necessarily wicked or evil until this word became heavily *christianized (should I say, “moralized” by a select few self appointed nomothetes*.

7) Economy = ‘oikos (Greek-“house”)’ + ‘nomos’(Greek-“rule, name, law, authority, lineage, genetics, genius, joining

8) Doom= domicile, dominion, “Dom (Anglo-Saxon)” = JUDGEMENT = the words of the Master of the Domicile. Free from peasant speak, free to will outside/from peasant speech. Peasants are ‘free’ from obliged Master Speech. They speak ‘freely’ with loose lips, cutting, back biting, judging without frame of reference.

Under the “dome” of the house, ALL receive the gifts of the MASTER, …such as freedom FROM danger, hunger, sickness, weather-cold/sun/rain/snow, etc. Even the peasants children born in the HOUSE, the OIKON, are under the NOMOS of the MASTER.

The Greek, “oikonomos (‘economy’)”, or “house name, house law, house rule, house herald, house genealogy,” is established under the DOM, DOMESTICITY, DOMINION, DOMICILE, DOOM, JUDGEMENT ( all same word) of the MASTER.

Under the Master’s ‘judgment” or “word”, “dominion”, “rule”, “Dom”—-you are “”FREE”” *FROM* being cast out into meaninglessness and wander. Slave, pagan, heathen, peasant, nobility, sons and daughters of the Master, relatives of the Master can ALL receive gifts UNDER HIS GLORY (or LOF and DOM).

LOF- ‘lift’, that which is “lofty”, leof, —-see, ‘leaven’ —(that which ‘rises’).   A pagan’s (a-moral sense) elevated status.

Many profess we’re in a “postmodern” or “post-truth” era. Simply put, this would mean that we are a culture without regard to ‘belief’ in facts, only ‘results’.

Sounds a little complicated? The second I said, “belief”, did I err? I did not, technically. Technically, ‘belief’ has never been “blind”. “Bheidh” is the Proto Indo European root for “belief”. “Bheidh” always meant ‘a nest from which something is launched from’ or ‘a maxim’ to refer to. “Faith” has been perverted by false moralists. “Faith” became a ‘blind thing’. “Faith” became an implemented word for those ministers who would abuse their sheep. Never before have we seen this word, “Faith”, be so abused, yet, greed, power, herding of the masses, etc. by ministers has allowed it to be so mistranslated. Such a bankless meaning holds bankless doctrines. Such an abuse of power necessitates ‘shadow words’, ‘shadow logic’, ‘shadow theologies’.

The ‘flow’ of poetry, archery, meaning, music, etc. is called “rous” in the Classical Greek. We see ‘rous’ mentioned in Plato’s Cratylus as in the archer’s alignment with pure mathematics as we have and will state in this book. That is, the human’s ‘climb’ to the point of perfect reference or the god’s council, a.k.a., ‘The Will (boule)’.

The ‘Boule’ was what was NOT interrupted, whether in the action of an athlete or the verbal usage found in a Logical Dialogue. Hence, “LOGOS”, was Jesus’ other referential NAME. The human side, ‘the rous’ was coming to be as interwoven with LOGOS’.

This contextual flow of naturalism and the correlative word banks used to exemplify their natural contexts did commit the natural man (the uninterrupted a-moral pagan) to be driven to perfection with the god’s council on pagan (a-moral/natural) terms. How much more is this a notion to the God of the Universe in Christian verbiage?! One should see that these beautiful pagan word sources were undisturbed in their naturally used cultural flow. Furthered, these undisturbed rivers of meaning came to a completion and exemplification within our relationship between us Jesus Christ. This would indicate that the Pagan’s Saviour was Jesus in masks. I would make the argument that word exemplification met its apogee at the end of the second century A.D. when the early church thinkers dissolved and a politically charged ‘church’ took over, namely the post-nicene church (ca. 350 A.D. the christian thinkers lost their momentum due to Romanism infused ideas/Mariology/ worshipping of the saints, etc.{all of which I call true immoral paganism}).

It is within the diagrams of natural paganism (opposed to contrived immoral paganism) that I do find honesty within the movement or motion of the verbs of both Plato’s dialogues and the New Testament Text. The Anatomy of these verbs which carry the nominative signs like the plastikos (feathers, tassels, ornamentations attached to the clothing of the dancers to ‘show’ the movement of the deity) of the Elysian dances, does haunt me to the point where I am convicted by the Holy Spirit to feel God over my shoulder. One might think about this ‘kind’ of FAITH…..a substantial, tangible, non-blind FAITH (Bheidh); a FAITH that is a denial of the ‘blind faith’ that is concocted from this horrid Western Hemisphere of pseudo christian thought.

Furthered for all, this linguistic-math is found in the word for, “disciple”—“mathetikon”, or, “mathematician” of the WORDS of Christ. Such a mathetike fulfills their meaning in martyrdom or ‘maturity’ ..hence, ‘maturos’ in Greek.

 

APATHY

Modern Christian-apathy (Greek: “a- (alpha privative {negative particle prefix}”=“not” + “pathos” = ‘‘suffering’’= *no-suffering*, indifference) is what I counter with a commitment to the Words of the Bible. Once you establish the core Hebrew and/or Greek understanding of the original text (Textus Receptus/ Antiochus Text), there is no room for argument. This worldview can only occur if you approach the original Hebrew and Greek Testaments as divinely inspired.

If this seems extremely dogmatic, I accept your charges. The reason being: the words of the original text are committed to the Narrative, the Historicity, the Morphology or coming to be of the fixed usage of the word within the coherent stream or flow of meaning.

The ‘shadow play’ of false ministers creates a false consistent motion via liturgies and social events. These ‘christian-social-necessities (as promoted by the ministers) either directly or indirectly creates the snakes and ladders term, *non-meaning*.

If that which is theologically correct is thrown out for a ‘replacement theology’, then, what ‘kind’ of replacement theology would ‘damnably’ fall in place? Notice I didn’t say, “naturally”? It is a natural thing to act on our God given senses, appeals, inclinations, etc. These instincts are not sin until we replace God’s higher order of conduct. That is to say, to confuse the natural senses with the metaphysical is technically a sin, let alone, a moral one. Such a ‘naturalist religion’ would appeal to the emotions, senses, natural man, etc. In this approach to a new theology, we would be double visioned. We would lack the discernment to say, ‘this is our good sense and this is our instruction’. These two do not compete anymore than a steering wheel and an engine but must be distinguished from one another. Healthily, you would have two good, “single visions” vs. “double vision” – which is what Adam and Eve received. It was called, “wit” or “witchcraft” ( all such ancient and later European and Mediterranean cognates such as: vitea; videre; witch; wit; video; ‘eido; etc. do relate to the word for “seeing” or “to see” as a warlock, witch, god, demon).

 

THE MODERN MINISTER; THE MODERN WITCH

There’s a job for the witch minister when the false doctrine of non suffering is preached. Examples: “God would not bring destruction”; “you have the free will to not choose God”; “you must ‘confess God in water Baptism’ – especially associated with that specific church and the promulgation to continue in the physical church because of such ‘salvational acts’. This is monetary based.

These ‘liturgies’ and ‘social-christian-contracts’ are fatiguing, emotionally based on many levels, cultic, divisional, limited, etc. I have developed a sense of the repugnant when I experience most of ‘contract christianity’. This is a term that Richard Rohr created. I disagree with many of his points but he’s smack on here.

THE ILLUSORY DOCTRINES OF NIHILISM CAN ONLY BE CREATED BY THE ‘CHRISTIAN-WITCH’

 

“Non-meaning”, is a man-made pothole which uses altruisms and functions for parasitic convention. Such conventions support the commercial/economic, mass-number-gathering, “collective” order, efficiency of shearing the wool off the sheep. I despise ‘efficiency herding’. I despise patronizing golf playing ministers who do not know their Bible who make me feel like I’m in a country club as much as I’m in the House of God.

These ministers and their replacement theologies create ‘shadow christianities. These uneducated, slovenly, rich ‘ministers’, relatively extravagant lifestyles, etc. do create the illogical by fear.

Let me explain: you would never need to create the illogical if the ‘logical’ made you money and gave you power. Such a replacement religion is called, “philogria (the love of money)”. By Jesus’ words, “Philogria (the love of money) is the root of all evil”.

 

THE ILLUSION BY THE WITCH MINISTER

I make no bends on this, If God’s Name is a VERB from the earliest of references to GOD, the VERB (EYEH, YAH, JAH, ILLAH, EL, Yahveh, Elohim, EA,) and we are the beings acted upon as though we are the dead NOUN, then this would answer to how witch-ministers have reversed this role. This reversal of roles IS the definitive meaning for, “idol worship’’. That is to say, ‘if God can be pushed away or received by our VERBAL force, then, the “God of the Western church” is a lesser GOD than the Biblical GOD Who is the Verb that causes ALL things to happen. This also makes us God, in the grammatical sense, i.e., the Causative Force. This IS the doctrine of the witch minister: you are a god.

It is funny to me to see all of the resulting contradictions in this view: At best, within ‘Christian paganism’, God is a Genie or Djinn that grants us what we desire, want, entreat for. Is this not religion based on our egoistic wants? I have said what I need to for now. Thoroughly disgusted, elated and content.

JUDGEMENT

 

Let’s address the term ‘‘judgement’. I am obligated as a Jesus follower to exegete the New Testament text in order to dispel undue judgements by which the  error born in misunderstanding the coherency of the New Testament text brings great confusion.

I witness hasty and lusty acts of judgements by “Christians” who are given the divine commission to preach the *GOSPEL*, not the damnation.

The illusory sense of ‘duty’ to ‘call those out of their sin lest they go to hell’ is exposed by the doctrines of Grace and Election. That is, how do we know who is going where, when and how with God? Jesus made it clear to His disciples to not judge others who are doing another work for God:

Luke 9:49: “Master, said John, we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us. *Do not stop him, Jesus said, for whoever is not against you is for you”. Secondly, is it not God who calls us out and not the flesh of another?

(For a germane study of “exorcism” one might find themselves finding only valid examples in the first century Christian era and based on their cultural anomaly. Many doctoral theses have been written on this subject matter such as Dr. Graham Twelvetree’s works on “Jesus, the Exorcist”.  As for me, I believe that the exorcisms were for a time in order to show the power of Christ and His disciples and Apostles in order to confirm the Church. I do NOT believe that this exists today).

Maybe this could work if we just all call out each other all day long. But, I see a much cleaner and more holy approach. That approach is found in the understanding that we are ordained as the elect to be put into sinful bodies and ‘come to be’ as Christ through these mortal senses to a renewed Sense that supervenes the mortal sense. Did Jesus not come to Baptize with fiery trials while the Holy Spirit confirms us in this true Baptism? Are we not coming to our senses through problems overcome in the understanding to simply ‘let it go’. Doesn’t the words, “God has Willed it” bring any peace?

Did not Romans 9:16 make it clear that it is not of anyone who ‘wills’ but of God who shows mercy? How can the ‘church’ see the substance of the infinite Christ when the gates of Heaven are presented shut due to their sin? Is not  the Kingdom of God within us (Luke 17:21 – “The Kingdom of God is within you” – Jesus) ? Then why the ‘kingdom of closed doors’ being preached then? —-because ‘humans’ create a ‘christendom’ that is a failure. They shut out the oppressed, the fatherless, the widow, the poor, the downtrodden. They respect the outward appearance, the rich, etc., but “God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart” 1 Samuel 16:7.  Again, this is ‘judging’ one another based on what the victim would only ‘choose’ not to be if they could. Who would ‘choose’ to be any of the downtrodden of Matthew 5? Yet, Jesus said they are all blessed. Who would ‘choose’ to be successful? — all of us. No one wants to suffer…but that is exactly what God has chosen us to do.

2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance”.

If Jesus is Lord and the Lord Jesus is not willing that any should perish are any going to perish?

The works of the flesh and the flesh will surely suffer unto destruction.

Ontologically ({Greek:ontos=be + -ology = study of} study of ‘being’, ‘being in time’, ‘being over time’, etc.), we are all horrid ( Romans 3:1-ff). If you are of age, would you like to live with your 20 year-younger self? How about your last month’s self? – No! Could you live with yourself now for eternity with all your prejudices and ignorance? No! We change every day. We are predetermined before this world to become more and more like Christ until that Day of redemption (Romans 8:28-31). We are becoming a *different being* every day. We are ‘coming to be’ into the likeness of God’s Son, Jesus. That is, perfection. 

If it is God who is working in us to do His will and to do His work according to HIS good pleasure (Philippians 2:13) then what are you doing judging another? Are you not judging God? What ‘goodness’ did you generate in your naturally fallen state to ‘choose’ a good thing? Romans 3-ff makes it clear that we are naturally damnable.  Ephesians 2:3 makes it clear that ‘we (the Christians) were at one time ‘children of wrath’ *by our nature*. That we, at one time, deserved wrath (Greek:“orge”-‘rage’ {mature context alert: ‘orgasm’, ‘to blow out with fury’}). But, WHO saved us from that according to HIS works and not ours? The bragging rites get smaller and smaller when we find in Ephesians 1:4 and following that God chose us before the foundation of the world, knowing us, predetermining our salvation, etc.  We find the same message in Romans 8:28 and following all through Romans 9. 

What am I saying? I do not believe that the “Gospel” is one of judgment from God upon us. I believe the Good News are the words of Salvation that one can go preach. I do not believe that we render ‘goodness’ by spreading the news of damnation. Would a good husband tell his wife, “if you don’t obey me I’m going to divorce you”?

Would a good marriage be contingent upon the act of the other? Let’s ask it like this: Does we love God in selfish fear that we will be damned if we don’t? Do we love God because we are in Love? Do we love God because we have a true relationship?

Below this paragraph is Jesus talking through the prophet Hosea more than 700 years before His ministry on earth! Keep in mind that ritual observances, laws, festivals and ordinances were the vehicle by which a relationship with God was kept, though, the Spirit was always there:

Hosea 2:16 (ca. 730 B.C.) – “And it shall be in that Day, Saith the Lord, That you will call me ISHI (my beloved Husband) and no longer call ME Ba’al (Owner/ Master)—-“

Is this not the definition of ‘free’ to ‘will’ the Husband’s love? Is this not the chain that is broken from the shackles of law, property ownership (chattel)? Why would anyone return to a “husband” who claimed property ownership over you by the law?! Why would anyone not run into the arms of the most gracious Husband who wants nothing more but a relationship? Read Solomon for the analogues of that kind of relationship.

Finally, the LOGOS, the WORD, the CHRIST who became flesh and dwelt among us in John 1 was TheDiscerner, The Judgement, The Distinguisher. As “Logos” had its humble origins as to mean: “collocate”, “collect”, “categorize” logs, wood branches, etc. Yes, you read it right. It meant to ‘judge the sizes, shapes, weight, etc. of wood in order to distinguish which logs would be best for what purpose (fire, building, dams, weapons, etc.). The Latin gives us the root for ‘discerner’ as in: ‘dis’ = ‘apart’ + ‘cerno’ = ‘sieve’. That is, ‘to discriminate, to set apart. “Distinguish” used ‘dis’ the same plus “stinguere” which meant ‘to prick’.  To stab, tabulate by pricking, etc.  Finally, “judgement” in the Greek has many forms. Diakrino meant “divide asunder” or “set apart”. This ‘divide’ is His pricking the flesh, His eliminating the ego, His tabulating when it is time to act for our sakes a good judgment. Did God not put Job through ‘judgement’? Did Job earn this “judgement”? – NO!.  God loved Job/ Loves Job. This true Love necessitates that the flesh must get out of the way from the Wife and Husband. She and He must draw nearer.

A.K.A. The “Toxophilus”

 

The competitive archer has the intent to hit the bull’s eye (Boulesthai] and must do so by marrying himself/ herself to the ballistics which make the shot ‘true’. Ballistics are based on power, velocity, windage, trajectory, projectile weight, etc. “Ballistics” comes from the word, “Boule”.

The “boule” or “volley” has a deep and ancient connotation. The word “will” comes from this Ancient Greek word. It means, ‘the WILL of the gods’. It means the ‘toss’ or ‘volley’ or “VOLITION” of the gods. That is, the target or objective of desire for the Greek Pantheon of gods.

In archery’s ancient philosophical-linguistic numinous relations, the greatest expressions are between the gods and the archer.

That is, the Toxon, or, the glorified one (hence, “doxa”/“toxa”) shows their *obedience* to the “WILL” of the gods which preceded the shooter. When the shooter, or Toxon, makes the shot, the Toxon receives the “Glory”, i.e., the “Doxa”—-hence, “praise”.

To add, the “WILL” of the gods preceded the Toxon and drew a true line to the target’s boulesthai or bull’s eye. Therefore, the ‘shot’ is done. It already, was, is, will be. All one needed to do was to obey. To respect the WILL of the gods.

Beautiful poetic terms come to play within the nomenclature of Greek archery that apply to a Theological application. Terms such as “rous”, which means, ‘the flowing river” are implemented in this rich theological explanation of a poetic and scientific ART, i.e., the ART of archery. To get into the ‘rous’ meant to add the human element of the WILL (the ballistics) via “Poeisis” in order to imitate to conformity the WILL of the gods.  Yes, “POEISIS”, is where we get the word, poetics. Poeisis means to ‘not step in the way of the flow but to act in accord with the fluid motion of the river by which the will or desired trajectory is going’. Such observant acts of OBEDIENCE are necessary to ‘do the WILL of the gods’. I hope you really catch this!

Therefore, the push to perfection ({Greek-‘teleos’}: fulfillment, completion, perfection) means the loss of the illusion of the senses of self will. To be FREE from the control of the animal or self (who controls who) and be bound to the WILL or BOULE of the gods. Remember, the Fates and the gods of antiquity preceded the acts of humankind in their destiny. Though this is a pagan story, it is definitely a mat

To further this beautiful ART, the “thumea” (the *will* to passion) is implemented by the true Toxon to ‘drive’ oneself to the WILL or the “BOULE” or ‘ballistics’ of the gods as identified to the gods. “Coming to be into the likeness of the gods through the WILL that already has been shot and demarcated to the Bullseye, or “Boulesthai”, i.e., —-‘ the sticking place {boule /will + ‘—-sthai /standing/ resting place). Is this NOT Romans 8:28-31!?!

 

The shot of the flesh:

In the etymological treatment for the archer found in Plato’s, Cratylus, we do find the ‘angst’ source for those who do the opposite of the TOXON.

We find that those who ‘shoot’ for their own will, self will, self desire, Eros,…do indeed ‘shoot’ into the field of harmeteia. This is the Christian term used quite often used for, “sin”.

Plato makes it clear that ‘the shot’ of self desire brings one into the field of ‘ananke’ or ‘angst’. It is defined as the ‘field of thorns and bramble’, but, for sure, applicable to broadly applied terms for ‘suffering’. The ‘field of suffering’. Sadly, the plethora of terms in the pagan sources gives us such a more detailed treatment for Christian doctrine. You heard me right.

Yet another aspect: Are you the god who shoots from, by, for yourself? Would this type of ideological archery not be the antithesis of Colossians 1:16,17 (paraphrase: ‘all things are made for, of and by Jesus Christ who preceded all things’)?

This type of ‘shooting’ defines EXACTLY the ONE who ‘hits the miss’ and wills for objective self desire—-that is, one who is motivated to traject by self will into the fields of pain, anxiety, objectivism, non-meaning.

In my website lectures (fomcm.com “The anatomy of the Will”) I speak of “the archer “ in the dialogues of Cratylus (by Plato) and the etymologies that are used in the “will, trajectory, art or poesis of the toxon (shooter) and the personal participation of the toxon called the “rous” which allows the shooter to obey ONLY the ONE thing that hits the bull’s eye or Boulesthai.

The Paideia (‘paideia’ – root for “foot”…as padua in Greek or ‘little ones’ ..pedos—-‘little one’) or classical aspect of education given to the early 1st century Christians did educate ((Latin: “e- prefix -“exit”/ ducare -‘darkness’) bring out of darkness) the Christian youth by teaching them the richness of etymologies and analogy. They were taught forensics (art of argumentation) and Logic (Reason/ mainly that of Plato and Aristotle’s works) and the classics, for sure, such as Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey (cf. Werner Yeager’s, “Early Christianity and Greek Paideia”). Such terms of the Toxon would have ‘met’ the Padua as they also would have understood the doctrines of Sovereignty written by Paul. The genius of the Jewish ideas fused with the European Greek sense by which Paul understood and wrote to in a Christian worldview, would have been brought to completion by the Holy Spirit who would and does teach all things to their completion.

 

To recap:

The archer (us, the believers in the WILL of God) MUST be given passionate intent (thumea: passionate mind, beyond the mundane, fervor, anger, beyond just rationale {i.e., outside of one’s mundane associations, actions, etc.—one must be fully wrapped in such a motion}) with the WILL (boule: ballistics, bullet, volley, volition, ball, etc) that has already been made. When the shot has been made, the test begins. If the arrow hits the mark, we know that the archer has applied the RULES and STIPULATIONS of every aspect to the Laws of trajectory by absolute conformity to the WILL. There should be no longer YOU involved with the shot. Rather, total submission to the rules, logic, LOGOS of Archery. You are becoming ( Greek: “sunmorphe” —‘coming to be’) an “ARCHER’’. The more “ARCHER” you are, the less imperfect you will become. BECOMING less of the “Missing” and more and more of the “hitting the mark”.

One last thing: how many misses will you have before you make that perfect shot? When will you consistently hit the bullseye? Many times. A lifetime of missing. So, how can there be judgement on the future TOXON when he or she is ‘coming to be’ in the likeness of the “WILL” of GOD? Where is judgement? Where is there accusation? Logically, shouldn’t “GRACE” be the word of choice throughout? I think yes.

Ecclesiastes  1:9 –

“That which has been is what will be

That which is done is what will be done

And there is nothing new under the sun.

Is there anything of which it may be said,

‘See, this is new’?“

 

Ecclesiastes  3:15 –

“That which is has already been,

And what is to be has already been

And God requires an account of what is past”

 

Isaiah 46:10 –

“Declaring the end from the beginning, 

And from ancient times things that are not yet done

Saying, My counsel shall stand,

And I will do all My pleasure”

Playing with premises

1)  The natural-immeasurable

The verses of Solomon and Isaiah assume the premise that nothing was before God.

These verses assume a prime force caused all energies to “be”.

These verses evoke two types of responses from several types of people:

As a believer might respond, ‘there is intention by an Intender’.

As a scientific agnostic might respond, “there is nothing incompatible with Thermodynamics in these verses—all energies that be require past, present and future and nothing can be separated from this ‘gearwork’ “

As an agnostic might respond: “I don’t know”

As an atheist might respond: “I don’t believe it”

Under this first premise I find it beautiful that the qualities within this universe such as: love, charity, humility, respect, lifting others up over yourself, kindness, etc. have existed before the universe was created or ‘came to be (for the secularist for now)’. These qualities are ‘energies-that-be’ because they ‘act’ in the physical universe. These acting qualities mean that these energies had their ordained (whether you hold to quantum physics alone or not) place in the unfurling of time and space. As two people drive 100 miles to see one another because of their friendship, the *why question* is measured only in the sense of the immeasurable motivating factor to drive the measurable distance. To reduce the act of friendship down to a measured distance and consumption of gas, oil, time, etc. is to do an injustice to the fullness of meaning as to why they sit at a table and bother to drink, talk, smile, laugh, etc.

The measurable certainly indicates the immeasurable here, but, to do violence to that which is immeasurable for the atheist is much better than having to attempt to measure the immeasurable. Notice I didn’t include the agnostic.

2) The Intentional Intender

Romans 8:28-31 makes it clear that God “foreknew (pro-ginosko = ‘prognosis’/ ‘pre-knowledge’) ” AND ALSO DID “predestinate (pro-horidzo = set before the horizon)” our Salvation. “Our Salvation” came out of the “what is to be has already been” of Ecclesiastes 3:15. Ephesians 1:4 states that God ‘chose us in Him before the foundation of the Cosmos’. Ephesians continues in this predeterministic relation to say in verse 5 of Ephesians chapter one that He predestined us unto the adoption of His sons according to the purpose of HIS will. We know that in “biblical speak” that the term ‘sons’ means to ‘carry on the Name’. This does apply to male and female. “Name” or “Shem” means, “authority”, “genealogy”, lineage, house, proprietorship, etc. Therefore, Ruth and Esther are good examples of ‘sons’ in the sense of “Shem”.

3) Forced delusion

The renowned and late Physicist, Stephen Hawking, who is an unbeliever in the Judeo-Christian God, made clear that all things were predetermined but they might as well not be because we can never know what is determined (i.e., if we were conscious to that level, what other levels could we not be conscious to and what focus would one have in a quantum field if ‘one’ is relatively standing in time and specific location?)—-therefore, we stay in the illusion. Scientifically-honestly-Sad! Our Bible gives us ‘the walk through’ of this Quantum field in the ‘vehicle’ of: obedience, long-suffering, compassion, love unending, faith, joy in His Salvation, etc. THIS IS WHAT IS OMITTED consistently by the ‘measurers without meaning’’. At the end of Professor Hawking’s lecture, Dr. Zacharias said that many students and scholars, including Dr. Ravi Zacharias, left dismayed and disheartened. Science gives no answer to that which has meaning…..it only gives a meaningless measurement. Another sad part is that there is a hidden desire from the greatest of scientific minds (as is all of ours) to find ‘the answer’, ‘the ultimate source’, ‘the ultimate cause’, ‘the ultimate meaning’. The ‘religion’ of the immeasurable measuring will continue until that Christ Omega point occurs. Sadly, without the relationship of the true Intender, Causer and Maker of physics, us, and meaning, etc…..life will continue as viewed through the eyes of the ‘rational-scientific-thinker’ as either meaningless determinism with an undefined source, random luck (a misnomer which even science cannot accept), naturalism (appreciation for the status quo of natural events without meaning past that) or nihilism (again, illogical).

4) The Heathen’s language/ The Honest language-non scientific/ non-Theological/non-moralistic

In answering to the religious ideas of ‘free’, ‘will’, ‘predeterminism’, ‘determinism’, and ‘fate’ we need to look at the simplistic natural heathen (untouched/ in the field of nature/ the heath) from how time-specific/ culturally based-endonymic usages of these words were employed. Then, we should see how these ‘natural terms’ were brought down, borrowed and completed into the Jewish and Christian vocabulary. I believe that in the fullness of times words evolved and met the eras match from which they were necessitated. Words, therefore, dictated the meaning of the actions by definition and function. In other words, “words” explained what we did, exactly and consistently.

My contention has always been that the true ‘bastardization’ of words, and the disenfranchisement of their correlative cultures from which they were held, happened when words became “moralized” to ‘fit’ a doctrine, especially of the vagaries of medieval christianities. I am not referring to the first century’s usage of Christian terminology and expression of the New Testament Text which indeed used the pagan’s reasonable tongue but that of the ‘moralists-Christians’ of the Roman and Anglican Churches. Not only words, but the liturgies became so sacro-sanct that you would be damned by men’s hands to challenge a man made idea of God. Daniel Webster, as much as I respected, did moralize with his dictionary and displace the natural ‘Heathen (amoral)’ tongue by which it was used in it’s unaltered and naturally evolved usage. I also refer to the ‘modernization’ and adaption of current cultural flows which ‘influence’ the verbiage of the New Testament as presented in English/ American. Such blasphemy has crept into our modern “baptisms” of the modern ‘church’. Even historically, such ‘baptisms’ blasphemy the entire evolution of “baptisms” leading up from the ‘tauraboolum’ of the pagan Greek. Built on from the Tauraboolum, we have the Jewish Priest’s ‘ritual washings’, which, indeed, did not counter the secular meaning of “baptism”. Then, built from these, we have the ordinance of washing in the brazen sea to enter Jerusalem which signifies death unto life. That is, one who has walked on ‘Heathen land’ into the heavenlies. Furthered to John the Baptist’s “prophetical pantomime” —as a Prophet, John the Baptist, did *ritual washing* to show that Christ was coming then! Finally, the Christ who would ‘baptize’ with the Holy Ghost and Fire. Such are the very words of the John the Baptist in Matthew 3:11 – “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but HE that comes after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: HE shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and fire”. So, how can we return to a prophecy once it has been fulfilled?! How can we return to ordinances made by man’s hands?! How can we do the pagan’s tauraboolum which was the natural starter for the allegory to ‘blood sacrifice’ that would be fulfilled in Christ?!? The last and ONLY Christ sanctified “baptism” was the continuance of the Holy Ghost and Fire. Do we not have that daily? Do we not have fiery trials daily? Do we not have the Comforter guide us when we pray? There you go.

Paul brought us from the ‘foundations’ of our paganism to this glorious ‘baptism’ found in Ephesians 2, 3 and ending in Ephesians 4:5–there is now: “one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism (baptisma-Greek/ noun/ nominative/ singular/ neuter) This “baptism” was in the nominative/ noun ‘state’-yet, “bapto”, in its root form is an active verb. What does this mean?! It means that the verb, ‘baptism’, has taken on its ‘stative’ or ‘state of being’ sense. It is a fuller sense than the ‘one-time-washing’. It is continual now. It is allegorically eternal. Therefore, if water was employed in this ‘state’ of baptism, we would continually be submerged, therefore, drowned. When the Bible uses, “Bapto (fully submerged)” an enactment of the water ritual was exemplified. Neither is the case found in Ephesians 4:5.

So many other Greek New Testament words depict the historical, cultural and dynamic usage of their intended meaning and isoglosses pick and choose words out of the Bible to ‘fit’ their respective doctrines. The English and American languages are in continual flux driven by continual trending. Not so with the time capsulized original Greek of the New Testament1.

Quantum thinking

Take for example our Proto Indo European (P.I.E.) root meaning for ‘unfurl, unfold, roll out’-etc. We have the P.I.E root word, “Dran”. Dran is the root word for “drama” and “trauma”. They mean the same thing under the etymological ‘jurisprudence’ of Dran. Such a word might depict: *to roll out* or ‘unfold (p.i.e.—*dran*->tran, tram—“trauma”/ “drama” -to watch the full act unfurl/ ‘to watch the quantum-gestalt of the ‘thing {*p.i.e. – *tnk* = ordered system})’.

From the linguistic amoral-pagan-secular (saeculum-‘the sack’-‘the full bag’), and/ or heathen’s usage of such a word, we would have a ‘secular-faith-based’ word. It would mean that there was a beginning and end and connective tissue to the events from beginning to end.

Now, a beautiful step further: we, as Christians, if we believe in God’s Predeterminism could take such an honest pagan (amoral {not moral}) term and understand-believe that God has brought us to a more evolved sense to ‘see’ that we are in the fullness of time and are allowed to see such truths’—that is, “If God predestined ALL things, then, the “trauma”, “drama”, “unfurling” IS the WILL of God—-just as Ecclesiastes has said!! But, we want to eradicate such ‘traumas’ and ‘dramas’ from our memory as being ‘evil’ though neo-designer psychology and failed nouthetic counseling of only ‘theologies’ and ‘neo-christian-based ideologies’. Then, we have the demonic (literally meaning: ‘dao= ‘to dispense’ + midzo =‘riches’/ ‘abundance’= ‘daomidzo’ = ‘demon’) such is the case of the Health and Wealth prosperity movement ( ‘daomidzo’) which would condemn the God who would bring “Trauma” to someone’s life.

In Job 1:21, Job had just lost all of his possessions and family, save that of his wife. Job said, “God gives and takes away, Blessed be the Name of the Lord”. I wonder what the literal ‘daemonic’ Joel Osteen would say to this? Wasn’t Job blessed? Wasn’t Job in the ‘trauma’, ‘drama’ of God? Wasn’t Job written in the unfurling of the Plan of God?! Then, WHY would anyone who knows their Bible condemn the logical acts that are leading to a logical conclusion from a logical starting point?!?

If God wanted to, not being bound to time, could HE erase you and I right now? As an author of a book, could an author not say, “this is not worthy to be here”? But, thankfully, God is INTENT on what HE does and does not make mistakes. Physics doesn’t make mistakes when applied properly. Nature is an expression that doesn’t lie. True expression has truer intention—-and mostly, the truest of all must be the Intender, the Author, the Causer, the Motivator, The Holder, The Verb, The Existing One, YHVH—“That which holds all, That which causes all, The Verb, None Other”.

We blame others and ourselves for destruction of our plans, other’s outcomes, wealth, lack of wealth. We complain at the ‘break down’ of our moral situations on a global or nationalistic level. We say, “it’s not like it used to be”, etc. Show me, please, where chaos (exemplified entropic “progression”) makes a mistake. It doesn’t. Complex, yes, orderly disorderment, yes, predetermined, yes, final expression of Thermodynamics, yes, all energies required from the point of origin to make a predeterministic expression from beginning to end without flaw of expressed formula, yes, the end needing the beginning and middle of events, yes—— hence, our first Maxims from Solomon and Isaiah.

Finally, if all that I am presenting is fiction, fantasy, folklore or myth, etc., you’d still have hope. I believe that this is not the case. We have rules regardless of what we think. We claim to be free in our wills but free from what? “Free” is a relative word as I have said. “Free” means to will without the shackles of something. But, being ‘free’ means to be in the case or state of “Freedom’. What is “freedom”? How is it possible to not be in the shackles of something? Well, “shackles” might be redefined. Being bound to something such as a good wife or good husband is an expression of being committed to a person in a case or state of freedom from another wife or another husband. This is the definition (at least the meaning of ‘adultery’) when one is free from others and bound to one and then released from one to bind oneself to another.

Such practice would rend the adulterer in half if this system of ‘loosing and binding (Jewish way of saying, “setting your own rules and living by them and all the other rules that you deem to be irrelevant to not bother with/ to relinquish them” – {‘relativism’})” is not resolved. By attempting to be ‘free’ to do what you wanted in your marriage with someone outside your marriage (or binding) you have bound yourself even more. Less freedom to move. More to answer to. A life where you are bound to lie to get from point A to point B. Meaning is reduced to survival and feeding of your desires like the addiction to heroin. Misery from shackles and begging to be released is now the thing. Where’s the “Free Will”? If that’s what “Free Will” is I’d rather be infinitely bound to God with infinite possibilities of joy and Freedom which HE is. This is why it’s so important to be severely bound to HIS Will and not yours here and now. This is why it is so important to understand that “Free Will” is not a moral choice. Free Will is an ordained state of being that allows us to ‘will’ in HIM only and not our desires. We are too spiritually myopic to ‘will’ without being bound to our will once again.

1.Such an example might follow in Revelation 20:10 concerning the Devil, the Beast, and the False Prophet and ‘those who were deceived’ by them. In many commentaries and ‘biblical translations’ one is led to believe that all 4 will be cast into a lake of everlasting and tormenting fire. Not so in the Greek!!! “Those who were deceived” modify those which will be damned. There is absolutely no mention of the ‘misled’ being sent into the lake of fire in the original Greek text!

Revelation 20:10–“and the devil who misleads them was cast into the lake of fire and of brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are; and they shall be tormented day and night for the ages of the ages”. – a direct translation from the Antiochus/ Textus Receptus Greek New Testament.

Yet, many use this verse in drunkenness of windy ‘doctrines’ to say, “see! — many will go to hell”… I say, don’t believe them! This is NOT the Gospel of Grace from OUR Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, Who has saved us when we did not deserve Salvation!!!

by

I use the term, “Church”, as interchangeable with “Christendom”.  That is, the New Testament Greek: “he-Ekklektos”, or “she Bride-called-out”. 

Such a title can only mean, “a Bride to the Groom (Christ)”, if one is to apply our relation to Christ via Jewish customs to the Greek language and its newly founded Chrestoi, or Christ followers.

 I also qualify “Church” by saying that such a body is grammatically “female” in the New Testament text. This means that “She” is in the ‘receiving sense’. Grammatically- Spiritually “She” is inseminated and takes in the “Logos Spermatikos”1.  At ‘her’ full term, she births the Logos’ child. 

One can confer to Philo for such historical references as just another ‘pagan’ philosophical idea which was governed by the philosophical fervor of his day. It is such an example of ‘pagan’ ideas that were governed by God. I believe the ‘rocks’ that screamed Jesus’ name were here. As Jesus told the Pharisees, “If you were to quell the voices of those yelling, ‘Hosana is here’, I say to you that these very rocks would proclaim my Name”. This is why I believe in natural Heathenism and natural paganism, without concoction.  Justin Martyr did too. He became a believer in Christ because of such beliefs and then, he was martyred by his ‘fellow christian believers’. 

Such a Body as the “Church” has all of the fullness of the Father, Holy Spirit and Son inflecting through HER as SHE receives eternal accuracy translated to time and space.

I use the term, “Christianity”, as the practice of proper exegesis, hermeneutics, application of the prior two and a death to self by such an application, even unto the physical death – as to seal the ultimate contract if God so wills it. No error or falsity would give enough ‘bank’ for the early Chrestoi (Christ followers) nor me to die for a speculative belief. As my good friend, David Rohl asks, “Would you bank your entire life on a Harry Potter novel to be a valid faith based tool?” 

THE COUNTERPART

I had yet another argument today on the “prosperity”2 doctrine delivered through yet another ‘christianity’ called, “Pentecostalism”. There are many versions of this ‘religious movement’ using the term, “Christianity”, to infiltrate the believing Church at large.  

1 Justin Martyr, a Jew, who lived in the first half of the second century (ca 100 to 150), converted to Christianity after his studies in Stoicism and Platonism.  He concluded that Jesus Christ was the “Logos Spermatikos”. Justin saw that such a pagan culture as that of the Logical Greeks were capable of conveying the ultimate term for God. Justin saw this ‘ultimate term’ as Christ Jesus being the fulfillment of the ultimate pagan nod for “God”. Justin was denounced by his ‘christian brothers’ and beheaded for his coming to be beliefs in Christ. So sad is this, that ‘coming to be’ as a believer was not accepted by the very christians who were only a century later from the writers of the New Testament, who themselves, taught against this action. 

2 Fortune, allotments, distributed goods, lucky, lot, etc. (all terms will fall into play with the “goddess” culture of ‘allotments’, i.e., Fortuna, Parcae, Moirai, Graces, Norns, Jeannie, Ashtoreth, Asherah, etc. Finally, the very term, “fortunes allotted” is called in the archaic Greek: “Daimonidzo” which does mean, “Demon” or “demon of dispensing”. Hence, the distributors of fortune in the male form as well-namely, Enki with Inanna, the Wyrd Hoard Dragon who blessed Beowulf. Such Wyrd Hoard Dragon kept the riches of knowledge and dispensed the gifts of elocution, vocabulary, etc. at his dispensing. This sounds all too much like the Satan in the Garden of Eden who gave the “fruit of the tree of the knowledge of ‘good and evil’ “. They learned to lose genius and gain “wit”. Hence, they were ousted by their new talents from the Garden of Genius. Many similar stories follow this pattern. 

Such an argument brought me to something I have been overlooking for a very long time. The Fortuna, or dispensing of riches goddesses, were alive and kicking as a mythological belief in Roman times.  John at Patmos referred to the “Great Whore” who sits on the Land of the Seven Hills. That she corrupted the entire earth with the wine of her fornication and that the merchants waxed rich with her merchandising. 

As the pagan poet, Robert Graves said in my paraphrase, “I worship “HER” because she was able to make the christians drunk. She was so important as to be mentioned in the Bible as THAT goddess who was capable of doing such a thing!”. 

I always knew that the goddess figure, wherever worshipped, feared, adored, etc. was always an allotment goddess of some sort. Whether you call “HER” a “FATE” or “Goddess”, to me, the terms are nearly interchangeable, though some would argue that the Fates had power over the gods to fate their lives. Nonetheless, I am referring to the FEMININE force, the SHAKTI, the GODDESS of agriculture, the Ashera-consort of EL/ Lady Luck,  fortune of war, fortune of children, riches, ‘lady luck’, ‘dice—a.k.a., “deia”, “Sors”—“sorcery”, “pharamakon”, etc. the Dispenser.  

Good enough. Let’s get Theological.

It is in the Scripture that I find the litmus test for ideas, their consequences, their realities and The Reality. 

Let’s look at Matthew 7:22 – “Many will say to me on that Day, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?”.

There is NO “christian” religious movement except for ONE and it’s various hybrids that claim this statement currently: It is the Pentecostal-Charismatic Church. The Roman Catholic Church comes very close concerning miracles. 

We see the return to the Greek’s (both pagan and Christian)  mysticism of babbling found in Corinth. One must confer to 1 Corinthians 13:1-following. Glossa vs. Glossalalia.  “Glossa” means, “Glossary” or “Ordered speech”. “Glossalalia” means, “blablablabla-sounds”. Paul addresses the Church at Corinth to know the usage of foreign “intelligent language” is ONLY to confer the word to someone who cannot understand or speak another’s “Glossa” or “tongue” or “language”. Not the  application of “babble” to non believers who need Truth—as the pagans of Corinth do in their mystery religions. 

This practice of babble was obviously known to the believers at Corinth, Paul, the Romans, and, for sure, John the Beloved, who was a prisoner of the Romans.  John wrote with an immense amalgam of  Christian, Jewish, Roman, Greek, Babylonian and Persian poetics all which fused a polyrhythmic sense of meaning. With God’s breath to John’s pen,  John’s “Apocalypse” or “Revelation” became that of prophesy of and by the Lord who guided his talents. 

It was the “Fortuna” that I speak of. SHE was the composite sketch of all of the worlds’ ancient dispensing goddess summed by one guiding force but divided into three.  

Returning to Matthew 7, we find Jesus telling us that in “THAT DAY”, many will be professing such a “dispensing of riches” in the guise of ‘Christianity’ which is not Christianity.  

“SHE”, the goddess who has corrupted us, corrupts poignantly, the “Christian” body, turning them into ‘christians’ who are the “Christos Temporas” or “Christ Merchants” of the last Days.  

Do we not see the “Merchandising” of the great Harlot within christianity that has corrupted us? …Whether it be the ‘daimidzo’ – ‘dispensing of fortunes’ (“demon”) of “christian-republican-capitalism” or the godless ideologies of communism run by big brother in the name of “Democracy”, we have the same source.

The all too natural ancient etymologies of God’s “epithets”

“Gud God, Holy Cow, What kind of Heavenly Cheese?

3 Main Epithets:

Epithet 1 (“God”)

One of the earliest sentient cultures of great intelligence was (and STILL IS!) the Kartuli culture. This Kartuli or Kartvelian  culture gave the Sumerians a relationship between nature and the heavens. Kartvelian culture made the Sumerian Language, culture and practices *sacrosanct*. Sumerians, seemingly,  were primarily nothing more than an agrarian culture.

One can see the ‘imprint’ from the Kartvelian’s language to the Sumerians when one looks at the etymological origins of Sumerian inherited words by which are seen in later Sumerian agricultural, religious, political-organizing a city-state, etc. 

By the way, Kartvelian culture did indeed affect the entire Indo European, Indo Germanic, Semitic, world, as well as Germanic, Norse, Anglo Saxon, and Icelandic Literature.

Such a particular example can be seen as follows in the dynamic between the Kartuli/ Kartvelian culture, Sumerian agrarian to city-state and Akkadian-Semetic. 

With the etymological observance of Kartvelian being a Caucasus parent language of Sumerian synthetic-aspect language, we see the occurrence of a few things.

The simple bucolic (Greek: boukolos = “herdsmen”, from “bous” = “ox”) Sumerian word for bull, ox, cow, etc. is, “Gud, Gur, and gu4”. 

With the influence of the already Divinely appointed sense to “guda” from the Kartvelian culture ca. 3,000 B.C., Sumeria was given an astronomical and astrological sense to its agricultural practices. The Kartvelian brings us the heavenly word, “guda”, =  (gud, gur, gu – the divine bull, sun and moon. steer, bullock, ox, “that which pulls the plow”),

We see the same in the Akkadian (MUL (of the heaven) GU (cow/ ox) AN NA (Heaven)= “the Bull of heaven”—therefore, “that which brings/ treads the Day”). 

Other epithets that can be seen as the same function:

UTU in Sumerian or SHAMASH (son of Sin)  in Akkadian were Mesopotamian deities that were seen as part of a Trinitarian idea.  These two, UTU and SHAMASH, were seen with the Moon god, Sin (in Akkadian {Sumerian: Nanna}), and the goddess, Ishtar (in Akkadian {Sumerian: Inanna}) which is also the equivalent to the Roman Venus or Greek Madonna.  

Thanks to the Kartvelian world, we see many world  “Bull” myths that led to the first senses of “baptism” that might be related to the “christian baptisms” of today. Walter Dale did a wonderful treatment of the 6 main forms of ‘baptisms’ that the Bible refers to (plus the extra pagan rite baptism of the Bull’s blood which I believe is syncretic practice between ancient paganism and Israelite cultic practice). Such ‘baptisms’ mentioned in his 4 volume treatment on “Baptisms” start with the ‘pagan-rite-taurobouleum’ or ‘bull’s-blood baptism”.

After Kartvelian influence, many Sumerians observed the horns, the moon, the maiden, the god UTU, etc. as collective symbols by which their culture’s “sense” of well being between farming, God, sex, procreation, birthing, neighbors, etc. began.   

We also see how this very early observance did spread to much of the Asian, Mediterranean and Occidental world. Such divine observance of was seen/ still seen in Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, Egypt, Greece, Israel, Rome and Germany.  

In the ancient rituals of the Kartvels (or ancient Georgians), the “guda” was observed as the divine Bull, Sun and Moon from which we see that the Sumerians associated all 3 together in their ancient religious observances.

The word, “Quat “, or “Kwat “ is an early Proto-Indo-European word. Its origin shows us the word, “Cheese—the curdled milk of the cow”.  This, in turn, became a morphological division word for the interrogative, “What is this?—-hence, “WHAT?” The skin sack of the bull represents the “DIVINE BULL” coming from HEAVEN and descending into the Skin Carcass or sack. Such an incarnation is very well seen in our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ,  in one sense: Christ is God. Christ came into the ‘form of a man’ to endure as man and God. Jesus Christ is God wearing a human skin sack, to say equivocally to the Kartvelian idea of Guda. So, the words, “what?, cheese, bull, sack for libations which were formed from the skin or carcass of the cow, and God” did originate from the all too natural and mundane terms that were seen everyday. 

From now on, you might think of the “heavenly cheese” of the Dutch (“kaas”), or, “Gouda” and all its cognates mentioned here and way beyond, when gormandizing on such a delight! Oh, yeah, did I tell you that the “Kaas” was “Das Got “….Old German, Got = “The Good’ = “ The God”.

Epithet 2 – “The Word”

The LOGOS and his base beginnings.

P.I.E. (Proto-Indo-European) = “lg- as a “classifier” or “organizer” of firebrands or logs. 

P.I.E. – *LG*= ‘the logs that were *collected* (Grimm’s law: labial/gutteral) and categorized in orders of sizes and types to burn, build, etc.  The smaller logs were used, obviously, to start the fire while the larger logs were placed later for the greater heat. 

The strongest logs were used for possible tools, wheels, carts, weapons, house building material, etc.  

We get our suffix, -ology, as to mean, “classification, category of, study of, words of “.  

Hence, *leg*, *lg*,  (Greek:‘logos’) = “the classification and categorization of things”.

It is not a wonder that Plato looked to the “Driving Force” of the universe as “Logos”.  Plato expounded on Logos as a part of a Divine Trinity consisting of ‘good’, ‘logos’, and ‘world spirit’.  Logos’ attributes, as seen by Plato, were the aspect of Wisdom, Reason, etc..  It is interesting that the very archaic, “LG”, meaning categorizer, organizer, Collocator, etc,….collectively, meant, “Judge”.

The development of “LOGOS” finally came to its fruition in the Johannine Gospel (Gospel of John) as “…and the LOGOS ***became flesh*** “.  

What an astounding sense to the first century Chrestoi who understand the Greek classics, the Ne’evim ( the prophets ) and Messianism as ‘the Fulfillment of the World’s Pain and Cure!!!

Epithet 3 “EL and YAH”

Egyptian and Babylonian scriveners, bards, poets, prophets, historians, and Astrologers all looked to the bull as the strong one.  The Bull, Apis (Egyptian), or the Sinaitic Hebrew pictograph: Aleph* (The bull is the ‘first’, ‘the lead’-hence, the “Aleph”, or “ALPHA”, hence, the first letter in the Hebrew Alphabet {aleph – beyt/ alpha (in Greek) and, the letter “a” in English}).

“AL”, “The “Heavenly-Bull”, or, “UTU”, represents the divine treader or maker of the traces by which the Lead Bull has established. The Taurus, or Bull) , which was and is the vowel carrier for the “A” sound and means, “Bull; Ox”. “AL or EL (Hebrew)” became known as “the God” of the Hebrews. “Elohim” was the ‘congress’ or ‘hierarchs’ of “EL” that did the bidding, expressed the notion, etc. of EL. 

The Hebrew took the AL Verb to the morphological EYEH. Eyeh carried the “prosthetic E” or removable “E” (in this case, the prefix) which led to “Yah”, which, in turn, became the hypocoristicon of the more elaborate, “Yehoua”, (YHVH). Once again, the VERB, Yah, denoted “THE ALL POWERFUL ONE”. Yah, in its most simple definition means = “makes to exist”. Yahweh = Yahoua comes from the Mesopotamian relation of man to God and God to man meaning: “Friend of Man”.  “Creator of Man” and, “the God who Warned man before Flood”.  This same YHVH God talked and walked with mankind millenia before Moses!
