The days are drawing near (Rev. xxiii. 20) when the dominion, and the glory, and the kingdom, with all people, nations and languages, shall serve Him who cometh in the clouds of heaven (Dan. vii. 14, Rev. i. 7), whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and kingdom that which shall not be destroyed (Psalm xlv. 6), Blessed be He! He hath given him waiting people to hear the sound of His approaching footstep, and to mark the signs of His drawing near (1 Thess. v. 4). The fig-tree putteth forth her leaves again (Matt. xxvi. 32). Israel’s sons are asking the way to Zion, by which we know that the summer is at hand. Blessed are all they that wait (2 Thess. iii. 5) and hold fast (Rev. iii. 11), for quickly He cometh. Amen.</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />In the prospect of the Christian church, of the speedy appearing of her glorified head, the zeal of the Lord’s servants hath been stirred up (Rev. iii. 2), when the Son of God, as a man taking a journey into a far country, bade his servants occupy until he returned again (Luke xix. 13). With other responsibilities, the circumstances of one peculiar people, whom the Most High hath separated (Gen. iii, 7, Exod. xxxiv. 7), and which covenant no act of theirs, however iniquitous and rebellious, can repeal or destroy (Mal. iii. 6) whom He hath scattered in all lands as witnesses of His unity and power (Isa. xliii. 19) connected with whom the welfare of mankind is bound up, and in the lifting up of whose head the most stupendous consequences are made to depend (Rom. xi. 15) are presented at this eleventh hour for the repentance and faith of Christendom, that the blood of our brethren of the circumcision which has been unjustly shed may be atoned for in the blood of the Lamb (Matt. iii. 8) in presenting the children of this people continually at the throne of grace (1 Pet. ii. 5., Ps. cxxii. 6) for the atoning sacrifice of Christ to cover them (Joel. ii. 17); and as the Almighty, in His providential appointments, shall make the way plain to present the children of Israel who may be willing to go up as an offering to the Lord of Hosts in Mount Zion (Isa. xviii. 7.)</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />For 300 years the testimony of the churches, planted in the lands over which Almighty God hath made you rulers, hath been lifted up against that apostasy which usurped the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ in the earth (Rev. xvii. 5, and Rev. xviii. 5) daring presumptuously to assert power over nations (Rev. xviii. 7) and over kingdoms, to root up and to pull down, to build, to plant, and to destroy (Dan. vii. 20, Rev. xiii. 2, 7). The millstone which shall sink the Great Babylon in the abyss of an unfathomable perdition (Rev. xviii. 21) when her hour arrives (and it is very near!), with the judgment under which she hath long lain, for being drunken with the blood of the saints and of the martyrs of Jesus (Rev. xvii., 6) shall include the avenging of the wrongs of God’s ancient people (Isa. li. 22, 23) and a terrible account it is; and the issue shall be joy and gladness to the whole earth, for it is written, “Rejoice, O ye nations, with His people: for He avengeth the blood of His servant, and shall render vengeance unto His adversaries, and will be merciful to His land, and His people.” (Deut. xxxii. 43). “Happy art thou, O Israel; who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help and the sword of thy excellence; and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee, and thou shalt tread on their high places.” (Deut. xxxiii. 29.)</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />In the events on which the eyes of nations are fixed, taking place around, whilst the continuance and stability of your thrones and sway, O kings, is the earnest prayer of the Christian church (1 Tim. ii. 2) she cannot but uphold the witness that the days draw nigh, when, under the hallowed sway of Messiah the Prince, the now despised nation of the Jews shall possess the kingdom (Dan. vii. 27) and she directs, with reverential awe, your eye to that mighty empire in the east which is crumbling to the dust , and drying up in all her streams (Rev. xvi. 12) to make way for the event. Palestine hath been a burdensome stone (Zech. xii. 2) unto the followers of the false Prophet (Rev. xvi. 13) as it was to the ancestors of many of you, O Princes, when, under the banners of the Popish Antichrist, their mistaken zeal sought to recover the Holy City from the Saracen’s grasp. But the fullness of the Gentiles is at hand (Rom. xi. 21) and unto Israel the dominion shall return. (Micah iv. 8.)</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />The apostate Julian sought to plant the children of this people in the seats of their fathers, in despite of that holy faith, one of the external evidences of whose truth was, that their house was left unto them desolate, until they should say, “Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord” (Matt. xxiii., 38,39). But is it anywhere declared in the word of our God, that the children of Israel, scattered and pealed, humbled, and dispirited, impoverished and broken down, should not be presented as an offering in faith to Jehovah of Hosts in Mount Zion, that there their fathers (Isaiah xxv. 7) which is over their hearts (2 Cor. lii. 15) that there they may look on Him whom they have pierced? (Zech. xii. 10). Your attention, high and mighty ones, is directed to the recorded fact that such an offering is expected. And before that full and final gathering which follows the judgments poured out on all the earth (Isaiah lxiii. 15,16,20) a power, and that power a northern one, (Jer. iii. 12, xxxi.,6,9, xxiii., 7,8 - Isaiah xliii.,6, xlix., 12) shall be employed to lead a people wonderful from her beginning hitherto - a nation expecting and trampled underfoot - where land rivers have spoiled, unto the name of the Lord of Hosts in Mount Zion. (Isaiah xviii). These designs and purposes of the Lord God of Israel, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, are declared unto you, high and mighty ones, His servants (Dan. v. 23) that you may ponder them, and know His will, from the voice with which His is about to speak unto nations and unto men (Haggai ii, 6 - Isaiah 10) for the time is at hand (Rev. i. 7.)</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />Your wisdom hath been exercised to mark the boundaries of kingdoms, and to define the limits of empires; and has not the aggressor overleaped all barriers, and the strength of treaties snapped asunder as [low]? And why? Because when the Almighty awarded to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the people according to number of the children of Israel (Deut. xxxii. 7, 8). By an un-repealed covenant, the Lord God declared unto Abraham, concerning the land of Palestine, “Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates” (Gen. xv. 18). This gift was ratified unto him for an everlasting possession, and to his seed after him, when the Almighty gave him His covenant, and changed his name to Abraham (Gen. xvii. 4, 8). For the purposes of infinite wisdom fast hastening to maturity, the Lord God hath scattered His inheritance to the four winds of heaven. But hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off. He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him as a shepherd doth his flock (Jer. xxxi. 10).</span><br /><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;">As the spirit of Cyrus, King of Persia, was stirred up to build the Lord’s Temple, which was in Jerusalem (1 Chron. xxxvi. 22-23), who is there among you, high and mighty ones of all the nations, to fulfill the good pleasure of the holy will of the Lord of Heaven, saying to Jerusalem, “Thou shalt be built,” and to the temple “Thy foundations shall be laid?” (Isaiah xliv. 28). The Lord God of Israel be with such. Great grace, mercy, and peace shall descend upon the people who offer themselves willingly; and the free offerings of their hearts and hands shall be those of a sweet-smelling savour unto Him who hath said, “I will bless them that bless thee (Gen. xii. 3), and contend with him who contendeth with thee” (Isa. xlix. 25).</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all.

It is to be hoped that the public feeling will not be allowed to evaporate in the mere expression of sympathy, but that some effectual measures may be adopted to prevent a recurrence of these atrocities, not merely in our own times, but in generations yet to come. We must not forget, when giving utterance to our indignation at the late transactions in the east, that but few centuries have passed since our country was the scene of similar enormities on a far larger scale. What reader of English history does not recall with shame and sorrow the wholesale tortures, executions, and massacres of the Jews who had sought shelter here, or who can estimate the amount of property seized and confiscated, or the number of hearts wrung by the endless repetition of cruelty and injustice? If in England they have till lately been thus treated, how can they look for more security elsewhere? Instead of wondering that they should become sordid and debased, the only cause for surprise is that any should rise to intelligence and respectability. Subject to the caprice and cruelty of any nation among whom they may dwell, fleeing from persecutions of one only to meet with like treatment from another, having no city of refuge where they can be in safeguard, on single spot to call their own, they are in a more pitiable condition than the Indian of the forest, or the Arab of the desert.</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />“The wild bird hath her nest, the fox his cave,</span><br /><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;">Mankind their country, Israel but the grave.”</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />Is this state of things always to continue? They think not. Though many hundreds of years of hope deferred might have been enough to quench the anticipations of most sanguine, they still hope on, and turn with constant and earnest longing to the land of their forefathers. Their little children are taught to expect that they shall one day see Jerusalem. They purchase no landed property and hold themselves in readiness at a few hours’ notice to revisit what they and we tacitly agree to call “their own land.” It is theirs by a right which no other nation can boast, for God gave it to them, and though dispossessed of it for so many ages, it is still but partially people, and held with a loose hand and a disputed title by a hostile power, as if in readiness for their return.</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />There are political reasons arising from the present aspect of affairs in Russia, Turkey, and Egypt, which would make it to the interest not only of England but of other European nations, either by purchase or by treaty, to procure the restoration of Judea to its rightful claimants. About a year since, I heard it said by a German Jew, that a proposal had some time before been made by our (then) Government to the late Baron Rothschild, that he should enter into a negotiation for this purpose, and that he declined, assigning as a reason, “Judea is our own; we will not buy it, we wait till God shall restore it to us.” The desirableness as well as the possibility of such a step seems daily to become more evident, but England has lately proved that she needs no selfish motives to induce her to discharge a debt of national honour and justice, or to perform an act of pure benevolence. The one now suggested would not, judging from appearances, cost 20,000,000 of money, or be unaccomplished after 50 years of exertion, or be so vast and so laborious an undertaking as the extinction of slavery throughout the world. It would be a noble thing for a Christian nation to restore these wanderers to their homes again. It would be a crowning point in the glory of England to bring about such an event. The special blessings promised in the Scriptures to those who befriend the Jews would rest upon her, and her sons and daughters would sit down with purer enjoyment to their domestic comforts when they thought that the persecuted outcasts of so many ages had, through their agency, been replaced in homes as happy and secure as theirs.</span></div><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br />Hoping that some master mind may be led to take up this subject in all its bearings, and to form some tangible plan for its accomplishment, and that some Wilberforce may be raised up to plead for it by all the powerful and heart-stirring arguments of which it is capable,</span><br /><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;">I am, Sir, your obedient servant.</span><br /><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;">AN ENGLISH CHRISTIAN.”—end transcription.</span></div></div>C.W.

Hellenistic Judaism</span></p><p class="MsoNormal">The Antiochian/Hellenistic (anti-Semitic) stance toward the
Law was codified by the Church in the early part of the second century through
the letters of Ignatius, the bishop of Antioch. It should be noted that around
this same time, the heretic, Marcion, was also involved in the task of proving
that Christianity and Judaism—grace and law—were mutually exclusive, and that
they do not even proceed from the same deity. Dr. Hamp has written extensively
on Marcionism’s continued detrimental effects on Christianity, despite the fact
that Marcion was labeled a heretic by the Church!<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/Commonwealth%20of%20Israel%20Foundation/The%20Forgotten%20Age%20of%20Judah/AntiSemitism%20at%20the%20turn%20of%20the%201st%20Century%20AD..docx#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">[1]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></a>
Ignatius, on the other hand, was sainted as a Christian martyr and his
letters—practically canonized. The proclamations of Ignatius, who was
considered to be one of the Apostolic Fathers, form the basis of what should
properly be called, “Hellenistic Christianity.”<o:p></o:p></p><p>

was a bishop of Antioch, said to be appointed by Peter and according to
tradition was the successor to Evodius. Tradition also holds that Ignatius was
a friend of Polycarp and that both young men had been disciples of John the
Apostle. It is also supposed that Ignatius was one of the children Jesus took
in His arms and blessed. Add, then, to these accolades a martyr’s death and it
is obvious why so much weight was placed on the opinions of Ignatius. Quotes
from the letters written by Ignatius while purportedly being extradited to Rome
for execution are presented below, followed by commentary.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Ignatius to the

by antiquated fables, which are profitless. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpMiddle">For if even unto this day we live after
the manner of Judaism, we avow that we have not received grace:<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpLast">2 for the divine prophets lived after
Christ Jesus. For this cause also they were persecuted, being inspired by His
grace to the end that they which are disobedient might be fully persuaded that
there is one God who manifested Himself through Jesus Christ His Son, who is
His Word that proceeded from silence, who in all things was well-pleasing unto
Him that sent Him. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Verse 1 clearly juxtaposes Judaism with grace, implying that
traditional Judaism—keeping the Law—is prima facia evidence that an individual
has not received (saving) grace. Verse 2 begins by stating that the prophets
lived (after the manner) of Jesus, that is by grace rather than by obedience to
the Law. This is simply absurd on several levels. First, Jesus obeyed the Law
to the extent that He could ask: “Which of you convicts Me of sin?” (Jn. 8:46).
Furthermore, the prophets kept the law themselves. Secondly, Ignatius redirects
“obedience” away from meaning “obedience to the Law” and defines the meaning of
obedience as the belief that there is only one God—the very ploy of the
Hellenistic Jews. Verse 2 ends with a true statement—that the Son was
well-pleasing to the Father. But ending these phrases with a true statement
does not somehow make the rest of the content true.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Ignatius to the
Magnesians, Ch. 9<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpFirst">1 If then those who had walked in ancient
practices attained unto newness of hope, no longer observing sabbaths but
fashioning their lives after the Lord’s day, on which our life also arose
through Him and through His death which some men deny – a mystery whereby we
attained unto belief, and for this cause we endure patiently, that we may be
found disciples of Jesus Christ our only teacher --<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpLast">2 if this be so, how shall we be able to
live apart from Him? seeing that even the prophets, being His disciples, were
expecting Him as their teacher through the Spirit. And for this cause He whom
they rightly awaited, when He came, raised them from the dead.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">These are some mighty big “ifs.” The assumption presented by
Ignatius is that because God’s “ancient” Elect were looking forward to
participating in Christ’s resurrection, they therefore, to that extent, were
“no longer observing sabbaths.” He thereby implies that the saints of old were,
at least, disobedient to the Law in their hearts. Seriously? Yet the Church did
take this notion seriously. Moreover, Ignatius imposed this hypothetical on his
hearers by threatening that those who wish to participate in the life of Christ
must, likewise, forsake the sabbath and honor “the Lord’s day.”<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">At this point we should wonder: To what degree had the
Antiochian Hellenist already ceased to comply with the third commandment? This
doctrinal position seems to roll off the tongue at the beginning of the second
century—perhaps shortly after John’s death. It is far more likely that the
Hellenized Church did not fall far from the tree of the Hellenistic Jewish
community. The whole gist of Hellenism was, after all, adapting to the customs
of the international community. As observed by historian Emil Schürer: “They
who then wanted to affect anything in the political world must of necessity
stand on a more or less friendly footing with Hellenism.”<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/Commonwealth%20of%20Israel%20Foundation/The%20Forgotten%20Age%20of%20Judah/AntiSemitism%20at%20the%20turn%20of%20the%201st%20Century%20AD..docx#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">[2]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>Ignatius to the
Magnesians, Ch. 10<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerse">1 Therefore let us not be insensible to His
goodness. For if He should imitate us according to our deeds, we are lost. For
this cause, seeing that we are become His disciples, let us learn to live as
beseemeth Christianity. For whoso is called by another name besides this, is
not of God.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Here we must interject between stanzas what is implied by
Ignatius, but not stated outright—that those who are called “Jews” instead of
“Christians” would not be “of God.”<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpFirst">2 Therefore put away the vile leaven
which hath waxed stale and sour, and betake yourselves to the new leaven, which
is Jesus Christ. Be ye salted in Him, that none among you grow putrid, seeing
that by your savour ye shall be proved.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpLast">3 It is monstrous to talk of Jesus Christ
and to practise Judaism. For Christianity did not believe in Judaism, but
Judaism in Christianity, wherein every tongue believed and was gathered
together unto God.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Verse 3 begins by making it an abomination to speak of
Messiah (who is the Lord—Acts 2:36) and, at the same time, to follow the Lord’s
instructions. Whereas, the inverse of this statement is actually true. It is
monstrous to speak of Jesus Christ while <i>not</i> obeying His commandments.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Next, Ignatius anthropomorphizes Judaism and Christianity
and asserts, “Christianity did not believe in Judaism.” On the contrary, in
Paul’s own words: “But this I confess to you, that according to the Way which
they call a sect, so I worship the God of my fathers, <b>believing all things which are written in the Law and in the Prophets</b>”
(Acts 24:14, emphasis added). Indeed, Christian salvation is attained by the
confession that Jesus is the same “<span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-caps: small-caps; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal;">LORD</span>”—Gr.
“Kurios”—of the Old Testament (Acts 10:9-10). Therefore, Christians believed in
the Holy One of Israel and Jews continued to believe in the Holy One of Israel.
And certainly, the words of the Lord are the final authority on this doctrine:<o:p></o:p></p><p class="Indentedblockquote">“Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the
Prophets. <b>I did not come to destroy</b> but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say
to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means
pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the
least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the
kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great
in the kingdom of heaven. For I say to you, that unless your righteousness
exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means
enter the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 5:17-20).<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Jesus’ only criticism of the Jews of His day concerning
obedience to the Law was that it should be carried out with the love of God,
and not neglect or replace the love of God.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Ignatius’ blatantly blind and baseless antagonism toward the
Jews stemmed from nothing, more nor less, than from the Hellenistic
determination that Jewish Traditionalism opposed the will of God; while the
Hellenistic—watered down, so to speak—approach to obeying God’s laws was the
ordained method that should be adopted by the Church.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Judah’s internal strife during the Second Temple period was
simply the result of the God-fearing Jews’ apprehension that further exile
could only be avoided by obeying God’s laws. From the “Set Apart”—who became
the Pharisees, to the Traditionalists, and finally, the Zealots, all of these
movements were established to promote the pure observance and practice of God’s
precepts. The Hellenists had determined that God’s laws were a burden, and had
preferred, rather, to mingle with nations. In most cases, international forces
were brought into the three major conflicts listed above by those who opposed
the religious purists. And, in turn, the liberal factions compromised their
faith by bending to the norms of the current world empire; be it Persian,
Greek, Syrian, or Roman.<o:p></o:p></p><h1 style="text-align: left;"><a name="OnKeepingthePassover">On Keeping the Passover</a></h1><p class="MsoNormal">The following quotations should be self-explanatory. These
precious early writings prove that the Apostles and their immediate
appointees—the first overseers and pastors—did, in fact keep the Passover as
required by the Law of God. Yes, the Early Church, not just in Judea but in the
Asian churches of modern day Turkey, kept the Law.Emphasis added.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; text-indent: 0in;"><b>Eusebius, Church History, Book V.<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; text-indent: 0in;">Chapter
23. The Question then agitated concerning the Passover.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerse">1. A question of no small importance arose at that
time. For the parishes of all Asia, as from an older tradition, held that the
fourteenth day of the moon, on which day the Jews were commanded to sacrifice
the lamb, should be observed as the feast of the Saviour’s Passover. It was
therefore necessary to end their fast on that day, whatever day of the week it
should happen to be.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; text-indent: 0in;">Chapter
24:<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpFirst">1. But the bishops of Asia, led by
Polycrates, decided to hold to the old custom <b>handed down to them</b>. He himself, in a letter which he addressed to
Victor and the church of Rome, set forth in the following words the tradition
which had come down to him:<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpMiddle">2. <b>We
observe the exact day</b>; neither adding, nor taking away. For in Asia also <b>great lights have fallen asleep</b>, which
shall rise again on the day of the Lord’s coming, when he shall come with glory
from heaven, and shall seek out all the saints. <b>Among these are Philip</b>, one of the twelve apostles, who fell asleep
in Hierapolis; and his two aged virgin daughters, and another daughter, who
lived in the Holy Spirit and now rests at Ephesus; and, moreover, <b>John</b>, who was both a witness and a
teacher, who reclined upon the bosom of the Lord, and, being a priest, wore the
sacerdotal plate.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpMiddle">3. He fell asleep at Ephesus.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpMiddle">4. And <b>Polycarp</b> in Smyrna, who was a bishop and martyr...<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpMiddle">6. <b>All
these observed the fourteenth day of the passover <u>according to the Gospel</u></b>,
<b>deviating in no respect, but following the rule of faith</b>. And I also, <b>Polycrates</b>, the least of you all, do
according to the tradition of my relatives, some of whom I have closely
followed. For seven of my relatives were bishops; and I am the eighth. And my
relatives always observed the day when the people put away the leaven.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpLast">7. I, therefore, brethren, who have lived
sixty-five years in the Lord, and have met with the <b>brethren throughout the world</b>, and have <b>gone through every Holy Scripture</b>, am not affrighted by terrifying
words. For those greater than I have said ‘We ought to obey God rather than
man.’ Acts 5:29<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8.0pt; text-indent: 0in;"><b>From <i>Against

also was not only instructed by apostles, and conversed with many who had seen
Christ, but was also, by apostles in Asia, appointed bishop of the Church in
Smyrna, whom I [Irenaeus] also saw in my early youth, for he tarried [on earth]
a very long time, and, when a very old man, gloriously and most nobly suffering
martyrdom, departed this life, <b>having <u>always</u>

I think you'll find this extremely interesting. </div><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Begin excerpt:</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;"><b>The intention of the Communists</b> to undermine conservative Christianity has been widely acknowledged since the close of WWII. What is not so well known are the revelations and forecasts made by Anatoliy Golitsyn, a former KGB agent. Golitsyn defected to the West in 1961. He began to file reports with the CIA to warn the United States of the Communists’ long range plan of deception. </div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">After no action was taken by the government to counter Russia’s secret campaign, Golitsyn published his reports in the book New Lies for Old in 1984. He hoped that the American people could press the government into action. Golitsyn’s work continued to be generally ignored, and his knowledge of the secret goals of the Communists was dismissed by many authorities as a conspiracy theory. </div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">In 1995, Golitsyn and Christopher Story co-authored a second book, The Perestroika Deception. By that time, 94% of the predictions made in New Lies for Old had been fulfilled. Both of Golitsyn’s books quickly went out of print and have not been republished. Christopher Story was assassinated in 2010 while investigating the Knights of Malta. (As a side note: The Knights of Malta were a continuation of the Knights Hospitallers. During the nineteenth century the Knights of Malta received 90% of their income from St. Petersburg, Russia.)</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">We will now examine Golitsyn’s knowledge of the Communists’ General Line, including some specifics on how the plan has been carried out to-date. Then we will note Golitsyn’s predictions which are either in progress, or yet to be fulfilled. The accuracy of Golitsyn’s inside knowledge of the Communist goals, and his methods for extrapolating the plans of the underground Politburo/KGB into the future, are undisputable.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">In the two years prior to Golitsyn’s defection, from 1958 to 1960, the KGB and Politburo worked to improve the cause of global Communisms. The General Line might be thought of as the Communist Party Line, a platform similar to America’s Democrat and Republican Party Lines. However, the General Line was a permanent plan that didn’t change every four years. The General Line defined a general strategy by which the Communist agenda would advance. The tactical plans of the party could be altered as future circumstances might require. The General Line attempted to address the mistakes made by Stalin and Lenin, and to adopt the Leninist dialectic approach in order to overcome obstacles, particularly, the West’s growing anti-Communist sentiment.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">The strategy was influenced by Chinese General Sun Tzu’s book, The Art of War. Two of Tzu’s keys to victory in war were adopted as the basis for Communist campaign of world domination: Appear to be weak and make the enemy think they are strong; and, Have a secret plan that doesn’t change—the enemy will lose because they don’t know the plan. The secret General Line was not to be changed. But tactics could be altered as needed to ensure the achievement of the overall goals. One of the primary goals was to condemn the repressive Stalinist approach to government. The strategists realized that hard-line Communism was repulsive to the rest of the world and was deterring the spread of Communism. Their tactical response was to give Communism a more acceptable image.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;"><b>The initial objectives of the General Line</b> called for a restructuring—“Perestroika.” It is obvious to any historian that leaders of an empire like the U.S.S.R. have never simply announced that they were going to release all of the nations within their control. Westphalia came after decades of bloody battle. What if the United States Congress suddenly announced that the U.S.A. would no longer be a union and all of the states were free to govern themselves? But the U.S.S.R. had a dissolution without a revolution. The Perestroika came from the inside out—it was a top-down decision. The Communists wanted to tickle the ears of the West by giving the appearance that capitalism had triumphed over socialism.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">But the West didn’t know the secret plan that the KGB and Politburo would continue to control the so-called independent republics of the former U.S.S.R. The Party even created dissidents and opposition parties to give the impression that free forces were at work within the new republics.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">The Soviet media portray Party-controlled strikes, demonstrations and disturbances in different parts of the USSR as real, domestic and nationalist outbreaks pointing to the disintegration and perhaps the collapse of the Soviet Empire.

They remain committed to socialism and Communism. They are a new generation of revolutionaries who are using ‘democratic’ reform as a new way to achieve final victory. The Communist strategists appreciated that they could not implement their strategy of convergence using the old, obsolete, Stalinist, Communist Party structure and dormant institutions like the old Soviet parliament. But they do believe that they can carry it out using new, revitalized, ‘democratic’ structures. They are therefore reorganizing the Party system, the Presidency and the legislature to give them more power and prestige and at the same time greater likeness to their American equivalents. Meanwhile, the Communist Party is apparently relegated to the shadows. The Communist Party, however, has not surrendered its real monopoly of power. In fact, it has broadened it by giving power to its members in the Presidency and Congress to execute the strategy of ‘perestroika’ and convergence. Greater Presidential powers are needed to carry out the strategy throughout the world. This is not a transfer of power from the Party to the President. The President remains a member and an instrument of the Party, the executor of its strategy. </div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Another hallmark of Communism was the “class struggle.” In the introduction of the Communist Manifesto, Marx asserted that the entirety of human history was the story of class struggle. One of the tactics of the General Line was to discontinue the argument of class struggle because of its negative connotations in the western mind. The Communists also wanted to silence the anti-Communist voices of the West by making anti-Communists appear to be radicals.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">The paramount global objective of the strategy of ‘perestroika’ is to weaken and neutralize anti-Communist ideology and the influence of anti-Communists in political life in the United States, Western Europe and elsewhere—presenting them as anachronistic survivors of the Cold War, reactionaries and obstacles to ‘restructuring’ and peace. </div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Without doubt, the most effective and subtle strategy in winning the world to Communism was the reforming of both the U.S.S.R. and the Atlantic nations. The process of cross-assimilation of Communism and Capitalism was called “Convergence.” While the Communists were taking on the appearance of Capitalism and openness, the West was to be gradually socialized. Under the section heading of “CONVERGENCE THROUGH TACTICAL CHANGES AND DISINFORMATION,” Golitsyn explains the tactics of disinformation.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">Now, the purpose of the intensified disinformation on ‘conservative’ resistance to Gorbachev’s reforms and on the Yeltsin affair is to win Western support for further arguments in favour of convergence and to widen the gap between genuine conservatives and liberals in the United States.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: "Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><div dir="auto" style="font-family: inherit;">The rationale of this disinformation is that that there are two sorts of people: those who recognise change and seek to promote it, and those who oppose it—the implication being that those who oppose it are ‘enemies of progress and peace’, ‘cold warriors’, etc. This was the explanation given by Gorbachev to the prominent Soviet expert Marshall Shulman at a White House reception. Gorbachev added that ‘we have both kinds of people in both our countries’.</div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a" style="background-color: white; margin: 0.5em 0px 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word;"><div dir="auto" style="color: #050505; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">In this way Gorbachev gave evidence of his intention to project and promote Soviet strategy through influential American intellectuals. There are indications that the dismissal of Yeltsin as head of the Moscow Party organisation was prearranged, timed and publicised by giving Mr Dan Rather permission to interview him on the subject, on the Central Broadcasting System one month in advance of Gorbachev’s visit to the United States. The purpose of that specific disinformation was further to exaggerate the alleged pressure being brought to bear on Gorbachev by Soviet ‘conservatives’ (to whom Gorbachev was under latent pressure to defer), to highlight the role of both Soviet and American conservatives as obstacles to reform and ‘progress’ and to create favourable conditions for an alliance between Soviet and American liberals for the intended purpose of the ‘restructuring’ of both societies.</div><div dir="auto" style="color: #050505; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">—end excerpt from The Rise of Western Lawlessness, by C.

identifying the hidden powers that are expected to emerge as the One-World
Government of the antichrist. There is, in fact, abundant evidence that the
wealthy men of the world do hold sway over the course of world affairs. This is
only to be expected, as asserted by James: “Do not the rich oppress you and
drag you into the courts? Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you
are called?” (James 2:6-7). Certainly, the Hapsburgs Dynasty did go underground
around the time that democracy was proposed in Europe and America. But if these
royal families did go broke, as purported, why do we still find them
represented at such high-level meetings as the Bilderberger’s gatherings?<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Despite the reality that social and political policy appears

I
saw an eagle, with twelve feathered wings and three heads, rising up from the
sea. 2 As I looked, it spread its wings over the whole earth, and all the winds
of heaven blew toward it, and the clouds gathered around it. 3 Out of its wings
grew opposing wings. These became small, tiny wings. 4 Its heads were at rest.
The middle head was larger than the other heads, but it was also at rest with
them.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="IndentedPeoticVerseCxSpLast">5 I kept looking and saw the eagle flying
with its wings to rule over the earth and over those who lived on the earth. 6
I saw how everything under heaven was made to submit to it, and no one opposed
it, not a single creature that lives on the earth... (Verses 7-32 proceed to

however, which also ruled over the earth and over those who live on it. 35 I
looked and watched as the head on the right side devoured the one on the left.
36 I heard a voice saying to me, “Look in front of you and consider what you
see.” 37 I looked and saw something like a lion being roused, roaring out of
the forest. I heard how he spoke in a human voice and said to the eagle, 38
“Listen, you, and I will speak to you. The Most High says to you, 39 ‘Aren’t
you the last of the four beasts that I made to rule in my world so that I might
bring about the end of my times through them? 40 You, the fourth that has come,
conquered all the beasts that came before you, ruling over the world with much
terror and over the whole world with harsh oppression. You have lived in the
world with deceit for so long! 41 You judged the earth, but not in truth, 42
for you have oppressed the meek and injured those who caused no unrest. You
hated those who spoke the truth and loved liars. You destroyed the dwellings of
those who bore fruit and tore down the walls of those who had done you no harm.
43 Your insolence has ascended to the Most High and your pride to the mighty
one. 44 The Most High has reviewed his times. Look! They are finished, and his
ages are complete. 45 Therefore, eagle, you must utterly vanish, you and your
terrifying wings, your dreadful little wings and your evil heads, and your

refreshed and restored, set free from your violence, and will hope for the

passages the enemy of God’s people is represented with allusions to birds: the
headed pairs of wings in Ezra, and the eagle—with necks and wings—in The
Assumption. So, who or what do these birds symbolize? This question is not

dated to circa 9,000 B.C. For those readers who hold to a roughly
6,000-year-old “new earth” creation position, just appreciate that Göbekli Tepe
is considered to be the oldest known site of worship on earth. To “secular”
scientists, and those who favor the theory of a recently inhabited old earth,
this site is placed on the timeline just at the close of the last Ice Age. The
important thing to observe within the scope of our study is the display of
various birds. Although the vulture is the predominant figure, the Ibis or
Crane is easily visible—up and to the right of the vulture and egg. What we
behold before our eyes is a real-life example of symbols of worship made like “birds
and four-footed animals and creeping things” (Rom. 1:23). And do take notice
that Paul begins his list with birds.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Supporting our thesis that the large birds, or birds of
prey, were to become the emblems of the Kingdom of Man during this Age, we
submit the “prehistoric” archaeological chamber known as the “Cave of the
Birds,” located just below the surface of the Giza plateau. This location begs
the question: Were the pyramids built at this ceremonial site of worship based
on the importance of the Tomb of the Birds? <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9OQIEzlwR9U_hrWdvgVndOBox9sHXpKX9aDmXUDx4dmE2V0gW-uIjyw3owFRePagjJcA9Mkur_ZwlThvx5L5NomSm8CCtrf1HFEF08CaZHAENMD1Yvad0R9pFt2-kj3aT9l25viS_cwFzTklZLkDe-ZE3wjNzwHM_1-giuxe2C2sB6_G57MiNZUYd2wk/s492/CollinsA2-Gizas%20Tomb%20of%20the%20Birds.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="CollinsA2-Gizas Tomb of the Birds" border="0" data-original-height="368" data-original-width="492" height="299" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9OQIEzlwR9U_hrWdvgVndOBox9sHXpKX9aDmXUDx4dmE2V0gW-uIjyw3owFRePagjJcA9Mkur_ZwlThvx5L5NomSm8CCtrf1HFEF08CaZHAENMD1Yvad0R9pFt2-kj3aT9l25viS_cwFzTklZLkDe-ZE3wjNzwHM_1-giuxe2C2sB6_G57MiNZUYd2wk/w400-h299/CollinsA2-Gizas%20Tomb%20of%20the%20Birds.jpg" title="CollinsA2-Gizas Tomb of the Birds" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p class="MsoCaption" style="text-align: center;">Figure <!--[if supportFields]><span style='mso-element:

mythology of ancient Egypt. Note the winged disk at the top of Figure 15. This
mythical stone is thought to have been part of a shrine at the temple dedicated
to the deity Atum in Heliopolis. The Benben stone is also an architectural
term, and is the name given to the tip of an obelisk or the capstone placed on
top of a pyramid. In the mythology of ancient Egypt, there are several accounts
of the creation of the world. According to this version of the creation story,
the universe was brought into being by Atum. It was believed that in the
beginning, there was nothing but darkness and chaos. It was out of the dark
waters that the primordial hill, known as the Benben arose, on top of which
stood Atum. Because the Benben rose from the primeval waters, it has been
suggested that this word is associated with the verb ‘weben’, which is the
Egyptian hieroglyph for ‘to rise’.<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/Commonwealth%20of%20Israel%20Foundation/The%20Forgotten%20Age%20of%20Judah/The%20New%20World%20Order%20in%20Antiquity.docx#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[6]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Next, we observe that the winged disk became a prominent

countries, nations, and royal houses in Europe since the early medieval period.

Empire, the House of Habsburg, and the Ruriks and Romanovs of Russia. The
Russian use of the double-headed eagle motif (dating from the adoption of it by

likely in imitation of the Hapsburgian.<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/Commonwealth%20of%20Israel%20Foundation/The%20Forgotten%20Age%20of%20Judah/The%20New%20World%20Order%20in%20Antiquity.docx#_ftn14" name="_ftnref14" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">[14]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">It would appear curious that regional Christian empires
would choose for their mascot the Hittite double-headed eagle. The selection of
the Hittite eagle is suspect because the “Cradle of Christianity”—Antioch of

sanctuary that served the Hittite capital of Hattusa, located in modern-day
Boğazkale, Turkey. The region (known as the “land of Hatti”) was first
inhabited by the Hattians, around 2000 BC and was absorbed into a new Hittite
state. Hattusa was established as the capital during the 17th century BC by
King Hattusilis I. A large sanctuary, Yazılıkaya, was constructed outside the
city gates across roofless chambers formed inside a group of rock outcroppings.
The chambers depict various rock-cut reliefs portraying the gods of the Hittite

the double-headed eagle followed the same route, the relationships of the

removed. We see this same pattern over time, with the double-headed insignia

modern crests typically feature a single-headed bird of prey. Amazingly, it

that Judah was cut off along with the House of Israel and must wait for the

For some it is a life-story of how following a biblical code of conduct has kept them from pitfalls. For others who have experienced radical deliverance—a born again experience—that testimony might include dramatic contrasts of before and after.<div><br /></div><div>Opening the conversation by recognizing the need for faith is honest and diffusing. The Apostle Paul said, "For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last..." Romans 1:17. Faith is diffusing because it breaks through today's mindset of resistance to the assumption that their are universal truths; which to many, is a non-starter. But in fact faith is a handle that allows people the choice to continue in an uncommitted, meaningless, and purposeless life; or, to profess—by faith—an allegiance to their Creator that brings peace, new life, and the promise of life to come.</div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">The message for today is the "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tell_Me_the_Old,_Old_Story">old, old story of Jesus and His love</a>." </h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3FDeJhXmWssqCTZBDxwhtLBfOVhDg6d4qXQNOcteue7OB5FRaTRTI5pBBsW8X0xw5k8n7hTjn5D6kkwjds6Yjm-3_ypS1CK_P30h_xmsec4c2lbHFMZVNe0lRIuCeCe9VxLgTUDgveLwGxKmJ92qvoMyxzd8gyKSGKZ-qBwSN6cOnqMO8QM4i06iNziE/s350/cross_portrait.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="350" data-original-width="265" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3FDeJhXmWssqCTZBDxwhtLBfOVhDg6d4qXQNOcteue7OB5FRaTRTI5pBBsW8X0xw5k8n7hTjn5D6kkwjds6Yjm-3_ypS1CK_P30h_xmsec4c2lbHFMZVNe0lRIuCeCe9VxLgTUDgveLwGxKmJ92qvoMyxzd8gyKSGKZ-qBwSN6cOnqMO8QM4i06iNziE/w151-h200/cross_portrait.jpg" width="151" /></a></div><br /><div>Once again to quote Paul, the gospel story that has persisted from the time of the Early Church is: "<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+15&version=NKJV">that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,</a>" Sin is always the sticking point. The confession of sin—that a person has offended his or her Creator—is humbling. But those who are floundering in life are the very "sick" that Jesus said were in need of the Great Physician. They are the approachable. The needful. The lost sheep in need of a shepherd.</div><div><br /></div><div>But Christians also have the testimony of what God has done in their lives through faith in Jesus. Going back to Paul again, God told him specifically: "for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you" Acts 26:16b-17. What does this mean to the "everyday" Christian? It means that we can share how God made Himself known to us. We can share what we have seen God do in our lives; and what God is currently revealing Himself to us though His Word and by His Spirit. All we have to do is tell the truth. Is that so hard?</div><div><br /></div><div>I'll have much more to say on this matter in coming posts, but gotta go for now.

was said to inspire Disney’s Magic Mountain. And I want to talk about the
spiritual realm. Sedona is a hotspot for paranormal enthusiasts fascinated with
the power of various rocks and interdimensional vortices (you know<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">—the plural of vortexes)</span>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The big question, elephant in the room, is where did the
spiritual realm come from? I think few would deny that there are spiritual
forces. Most of us have had premonitions, inexplicable “coincidences,” and
other evidence of an unseen hand of providence.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Watch this video where I discuss the cosmology of the spiritual dimension onsite in Sedona, Arizona.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/I1k12Nn8AQg" width="320" youtube-src-id="I1k12Nn8AQg"></iframe></div><p class="MsoNormal">Over the centuries, science and logic has labored to explain
the creation of the physical universe. But no one stops to reflect on where the
spiritual realm came from. Logically, it didn’t evolve. So either it is
eternal, or it was created out of some spiritual “substance.” It does seem that
secular scientists are satisfied with the assumption that the basic building
blocks of the dimension we call home—that is, the subatomic particles and energy
present at the time of the “big bang”—were pre-existent“ in the beginning.”</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So then, does the spiritual realm simply exist? Is there no
call to explain the cosmology of the spiritual realm? The deadening silence on
the subject does have a suggested answer. One that has been assumed for
millennia… The dimensions of the spiritual heaven and physical cosmos were
created by a Creator.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is what was asserted by the writers of the Bible: “For
by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth,
visible and invisible...” And quite specifically: “God, who at various times
and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>has in these last days spoken to us by His
Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the
ages...” (Col. 1:16; Heb. 1:1-2).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Obviously, even the mention of God or the Bible is
disqualifying to many among the general public of our times. But seriously. Got
a better answer for the cosmology of the spiritual realm? <o:p></o:p></p>

We're moving 76,000 miles per hour around our sun, which is nothing compared to the 1.3 million mph our galaxy is moving through space. Astronomy has proven a vastness to space that is unimaginable to the human mind. So the notion that God dwells beyond our visible heavens would portray God as far, far away.</div><div><br /></div><div>In contrast to this geocentric, Ptolemaic, idea of God's whereabouts, the Cretan poet Epimenides (600 BC.) stated: "in Him we live and move and have our being." St. Paul quoted this line in Acts 17:28 in order to present the true locality of God; which is, that God resides in the spiritual dimension, from which He created and interacts with us in the physical universe.</div><div><br /></div><div>So, by faith, we can either conceptualize that God is too remote to be relevant; or, we can accept the Bible's testimony—that God is right here with us. God can be our "all in all." Or, He can amount to nothing at all. But know that Jesus came to reconcile us back to God—and even bring us closer than when Adam and Eve were in the Garden. "That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us" (John 17:21).</div><div><br /></div><div>This singularity is only available by faith in Jesus: "Jesus answered and said to him, 'If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him'" (John 14:23).</div><div><br /></div><div>Want to know more?

In Galatians 1:3-4 Paul wrote, "Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father..." The Greek word for "present" here means "to be 'stood' in a certain place" or "to be placed in." This means that in whatever moment of this Age in which we might happen to live, Jesus has relieved us of our sins; and, that He delivers us from the particular evils that are present—those real and present dangers. Even those Revelation-sized evils.<br /><p><br /></p>C.W.

Plus, I have included some simple, yet effective, tables showing why “those who are asleep” are none other than the “dead in Christ.” Paul states the timing of the “rapture sequence” in two different ways in order to comfort the bereaved that their dead will rise first. In addition, this study investigates why Paul selected such an unusual Greek word for “rapture,” and what that word actually means—something that I am not aware that any other author has presented.</p><p>This work is a brief, one-stop shop for anyone who is willing to learn what the 1st Thessalonians 4 “rapture passage” actually says.

Steinle</h1><h3 style="text-align: left;">Current Video Summary (below), and <u>upcoming booklet and audiobook</u>.<br />Snippet from the Introduction:</h3><p>I am grieved that rapture timing continues to cause division in the Body of Christ. After writing about the rapture in half of the 20 books I have now authored or co-authored, I have determined that Paul's description of this event, as documented in the 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18 passage, is enough to settle the matter once and for all. After nearly 30 years since I began to study this prophecy, I am only now waking up, myself, to the evidence contained in this "rapture passage." And, as the Apostles voiced in Acts Chapter Four, I "cannot but speak the things which [I] have seen and heard.</p><p>Once a person takes to heart the exact words that Paul used to comfort the Thessalonians, there's simply no going back. Now, there are some who would suggest that I am the one causing division by rehashing the rapture and making such a big deal out of what many on both sides consider to be a sort of "sacred cow" doctrine. That, further discussion on a topic so controversial can only be expected to fan the flames of hostility. Here I must confess that I also lashed out against others, once I was convinced of my present stance on the issue. It was a sin, from which I have long since repented—and yes; I did both seek and receive forgiveness from God and my dearest friends regarding this offense.</p><p>Unexpectedly, others have attacked me on social media with the retort: "There is no rapture at all." I strongly disagree with such a conclusion. The change "in the twinkling of an eye" is most certainly found in the Bible. If, however, these "non-rapture" proponents are making the case that there are issues with the translation of the Greek word Paul used for "rapture," I would have to concede that they do have a point...</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pcnZcca43K0" width="400" youtube-src-id="pcnZcca43K0"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>C.W.

If you've never seen one, here's a recent video: <a href="https://youtu.be/p_CI2oBhmnA">https://youtu.be/p_CI2oBhmnA</a>.

It was that bright. But it was moving at the pace that one usually sees when viewing a meteor—a shooting star. In other words, this was moving much faster than a jet.</p><p>It passed overhead and then disappeared at about 10 o'clock in the eastern sky. Based on the brightness and illumination of the surrounding atmosphere, I was expecting to witness yet another massive airburst. But not so. My conclusion is that the Earth experienced another near miss similar to the one by the North Pole just one week ago.</p><p>The message is clear.

Although much controversy surrounds this topic—often avoided or downplayed—the ancient Judeo-Christian texts refer to this cosmic metamorphosis into the "New Heaven" and "New Earth" prolifically and in detail. Peter describes this event at Christ's second coming: "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up" (2 Peter 3:10).<br />Paul remarked: "For the form of this world is passing away" (1 Cor. 7:31). Yet, somehow this transformation from the present form into a new "dimension" is not the end of the world, but instead will produce a glorious age on earth in which "the wolf and the lamb shall feed together" (Isa. 65:25).</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Because of the esoteric nature of complex religious concepts, theologians have sometimes used popular (secular) examples so that the masses might relate to spiritual ideas. This was the case with Philo, who employed familiar Classical Greek philosophical concepts to interpret the Hebrew writings. Likewise, Augustine expounded upon the Bible making reference to Neoplatonist elements. With this precedent, The Singularity Prophecy sheds new light on the coming convergence by describing this transformation process in terms of Astrophysics and Quantum Mechanics.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />This book is written so as to engage international readers possessing a diversity of philosophies and religions.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Scientists estimate that 44 tonnes (44,000 kilograms, about
48.5 tons) of meteoritic material falls on the Earth each day. Several meteors
per hour can usually be seen on any given night. Sometimes the number increases
dramatically—these events are termed meteor showers. Some occur annually, or at
regular intervals, as the Earth passes through the trail of dusty debris left
by comets. Meteor showers are usually named after the star or constellation
that is close to where the meteors appear in the sky. Perhaps the most famous
are the Perseids, which peak around the Twelfth of August every year. Each
Perseid meteor is a tiny piece of the comet Swift-Tuttle, which swings by the
Sun every 135 years. Other meteor showers and their associated comets are the Leonids
(Tempel-Tuttle), the Aquarids and Orionids (Halley), and the Taurids (Encke). Most
comet dust in meteor showers burns up in the atmosphere before reaching the
ground; some dust is captured by high-altitude aircraft and analyzed in NASA
laboratories. . . . More than 50,000 meteorites have been found on Earth. Of these,
99.8 percent come from asteroids.”<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/CW%20Books/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness%202%20kindle%2008022021.docx#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn2;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[2]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">“On February 14, 2013 a 10,000 ton meteor about 17-meters in
diameter entered Earth’s atmosphere over Russia traveling at 40,000 mph (18
km/s). It detonated in the air over the town of Chelyabinsk and the explosion
caused major damage to the town injuring 1,000 people. The people were hurt by
flying glass when the windows of over 3000 buildings blew out over an area of
about 1000 km2. Unlike the famous Tunguska Event of 1908 which blew down 80
million trees and was not ‘discovered’ for many decades afterwards, the
Chelyabinsk Meteor was extensively videoed by hundreds of dash-cams and cell
phones as it happened. Studies of thousands of meteor sightings by scientists
can now tell us just how often asteroids of 4-meters or larger enter Earth’s
atmosphere. About two of these events happen each year over the entire surface
area of Earth.”<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/CW%20Books/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness%202%20kindle%2008022021.docx#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn5;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[5]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Professor S.A. Nelson of Tulane University has articulated
the dangers presented by incoming astrological bodies. Below are some excerpts
from his summary titled, “Meteorites, Impacts, & Mass Extinction.”<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/CW%20Books/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness%202%20kindle%2008022021.docx#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn6;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[6]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></span></a><sup>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Although the Chelyabinsk meteorite probably weighed about
12,000–13,000 metric tonnes, and measured 17 to 20 m in diameter before it
exploded, scientists were quick to point out that it was very small compared to
other objects that could potentially hit the earth. The explosion released
energy estimated at about 500 kilotons of TNT (about 20 to 30 times more energy
than the Hiroshima atomic bomb). The event brought to the world’s attention the
very real hazards associated with the impact of objects from outer space. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">The impact of a space object with a size greater than about 1
km would be expected to be felt over the entire surface of the Earth. Smaller
objects would certainly destroy the ecosystem in the vicinity of the impact,
similar to the effects of a volcanic eruption. Larger impacts could have a
worldwide effect on life on the Earth. We will here first consider the possible
effects of an impact, and then discuss how impacts may have resulted in mass
extinction of species on the Earth in the past.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Regional and Global
Effects<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Again, we as humans have no firsthand knowledge of what the
effects of an impact of a large meteorite (> 1 km in size) or comet would
be. Still, calculations can be made and scaled experiments can be conducted to
estimate the effects. The general consensus is summarized here.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Massive earthquake—up to Richter Magnitude 13, and numerous
large magnitude aftershocks would result from the impact of a large object with
the Earth.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">The large quantities of dust put into the atmosphere would
block incoming solar radiation. The dust could take months to settle back to
the surface. Meanwhile, the Earth would be in a state of continual darkness,
and temperatures would drop throughout the world, generating global winter like
conditions. A similar effect has been postulated for the aftermath of a nuclear
war (termed a nuclear winter). Blockage of solar radiation would also diminish
the ability of photosynthetic organisms, like plants, to photosynthesize. Since
photosynthetic organisms are the base of the food chain, this would seriously
disrupt all ecosystems. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Widespread wildfires ignited by radiation from the fireball
as the object passed through the atmosphere would be generated. Smoke from
these fires would further block solar radiation to enhance the cooling effect
and further disrupt photosynthesis.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">If the impact occurred in an ocean, a large steam cloud would
be produced by the sudden evaporation of the seawater. This water vapor and CO<sub>2</sub>
would remain in the atmosphere long after the dust settles. Both of these gases
are greenhouse gases which scatter solar radiation and create a warming effect.
Thus, after the initial global cooling, the atmosphere would undergo global
warming for many years after the impact.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Also, if the impact occurred in an ocean, a giant tsunami
would be generated. For a ten km-diameter object, the leading edge would hit
the seafloor of the deep ocean basins before the top of the object had reached
sea level. The tsunami from such an impact is estimated to produce waves from one
to three km high. These could easily flood the interior of continents.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Large amounts of nitrogen oxides would result from combining nitrogen
and oxygen in the atmosphere due to the shock produced by the impact. These
nitrogen oxides would combine with water in the atmosphere to produce nitric
acid which would fall back to the surface as acid rain, resulting in the
acidification of surface waters. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">The Geologic Record of
Mass Extinction<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">It has long been known that extinction of large percentages
families or species of organisms have occurred at specific times in the history
of our planet. Among the mechanisms that have been suggested to have caused
these mass extinctions have been large volcanic eruptions, changes in climatic
conditions, changes in sea level, and, more recently, meteorite impacts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 4.0pt; margin-left: .2in; margin-right: .2in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0.2in 4pt;">Risk—It is estimated that in any given year the odds that you
will die from an impact of an asteroid or comet are between 1 in 3,000 and 1 in
250,000. . . . Although this seems like long odds, you have about the [the same
odds] of dying from other natural disasters likes floods and tornadoes. In fact
the odds of dying from an impact event are much better than the odds of winning
the Powerball lottery.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A 400 meter asteroid striking the earth would produce a
destructive force of 2,800 megatons of TNT. On November 8, 2011, the 400 meter
asteroid designated (308635) 2005 YU55 passed within the moon’s orbit of the
earth. <span lang="EN" style="font-size: 11pt; mso-ansi-language: EN;">Purdue
University</span> has calculated that a 400 meter asteroid will only strike the
earth about once every 100,000 years.<a href="file:///D:/C%20Steinle/Documents/CW%20Books/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness/The%20Rise%20of%20Western%20Lawlessness%202%20kindle%2008022021.docx#_ftn7" name="_ftnref7" style="mso-footnote-id: ftn7;" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[7]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></span></a> The
problem is that we naturally assume the interval of time between strikes starts
from the time <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">we</i> read the data. No
one knows where in time their measurements should begin. Neither does anyone
know how evenly spaced throughout time certain sized asteroids might make their
arrival. Furthermore, there are so many known and unknown celestial objects out
there, we simply have no assurance that there is any great length of time
between these age-ending collisions.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">In 2002 an asteroid between 50 and 120 meters passed between
the moon and the earth. Two asteroids in 2012, and one in 2013, all in the
35-45 meter range, passed through this same corridor. According to the
scientists’ calculations, asteroids of this size enter the earth’s atmosphere about
once every 300 years. But the reality is that we only went 106 years, from 1908
to 2015 to experience two massive explosions from asteroids of this size. And
who knows how many more entered uninhabited areas of the planet during that
same period.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Through advanced telescopes astronomers have gotten a much
better picture of all that is “out there”. The earth is moving around the sun
at 67,000 MPH. Our solar system is moving through the galaxy at 490,000 MPH. And
the galaxy appears to be traveling through space at 2,236,936,290 MPH. What
could possibly go wrong? The data which astronomers have obtained has not set
the scientific community at ease about the possibility of another extinction
event. Quite the contrary. Canada, Europe, and the United States have begun to scramble
to prevent the next extinction event. The U.S. Congress passed, in 2005, The National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Authorization Act, containing the
following directive:<o:p></o:p></p>
