Ecclesia .1
Enter: The Son of God
Everything that God does, is meticulous and calculated. The creator of the universe isn't one to leave things to chance. So why would that differ with his incarnate son, born of Mary.
The truth is that it doesn't.
In Luke 1:31 at the command of YHWH, the archangel Gabriel says to Marry..
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus
At least that's what most people think as this is the American translation.
The words actually spoken were..
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Yeshua
God was very specific in
the choosing of his name and did not give Mary the option of what his name would be.
People argue that it's a translation, but it's not even similar, also, proper names do not translate.. your name is your name no matter who speaks it. There might be similar names in other languages.. but that doesn't change what your name actually is.
If your name is specifically chosen by God, then this would apply even more so. And if this was important to God, then should it not be important to God's people.
Enter: Paul (Saul of Tarsus)
When asking anyone who the hero of the new testament is, most everyone knows to say Yeshua and will probably answer with Jesus.
But to hear it preached, most people would probably come to the conclusion that it is actually Paul.
This is possibly due to the amount of content produced by Paul and the application of some of the things he says.
Most preachers tend to lean heavily on the teachings of Paul more so than any other part of the Bible.
Paul's teachings are infact enlightening for the most part, but let's look at what Paul says next to what the actual words of YHWH say about the same subject, in the same context.
Paul: Romans
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.
YHWH: Hosea 8:4
They set up kings without my consent; they choose princes without my approval.
So clearly not every authority is ordained by God, if God himself doesn't approve of them even being in authority.
Further Contrast..
Paul: Romans 14:23
But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.
YHWH Leviticus 5:15 (first part)
When anyone is unfaithful to the Lord by sinning unintentionally in regard to any of the Lord’s holy things.. (continues about sacrifice and atonement)
In this, Paul implies that breaking your own conviction is a sin..
and YHWH is saying that you can sin without even realizing it.. that it is not your convictions, but rather, something that is set in stone.
## Biblical Foundation ##
The pillars of biblical instruction, revelation, and prophecy are
God, prophets ; disciples, Messiah
Starting with God.
Ending with The Son of God.
Everyone after this is simply a preacher.
When it came time to replace Judas and re-complete the 12, the lots fell to Matthias (who like the 12 was witness to these things)
The job of the apostles was to spread the news of the Bible's completion through the testimony of Yeshua's birth, life, miracles, death, and resurrection.
Even Peter formerly Simon was wrong when he wanted to call fire down from heaven, and Yeshua rebuked him.
When Yeshua was born to the earth, the Bible was already established and Yeshua was the final chapter.
Paul says that these 3 things last forever.. faith, hope, and love.
However, those who are in hell have no hope, and those in heaven don't need it as they have already achieved all that there is to be achieved.
More commonly preached throughout the bible are love, forgiveness, and mercy, as these seem to be the ingredients for salvation, and faith hope and love have seemed to replace them.
I think people often confuse faith with faithfulness. Look at belief and faith for just a second..
Imagine if Hitler, who had 6 million people killed, truly believed that Yeshua was The Son of God..
And a woman, who lives her life fulfilling God's will, exemplifying love, mercy, forgiveness, charity, yet she has never heard of the name Yeshua
Who of the 2 do you think God would accept.
Alot of people think that if you know The Son of God's name, believe that he is God and say a quick prayer, that you're set for life, despite Yeshua's parable of the seeds.
By this logic most Christians wouldn't even make it to heaven because they do not infact know The Son Of God's.. literally God Given name or if they do they refuse to use it.
You do not get to heaven based on knowledge alone. It's not a game show. It's not guess the password, win a prize.
If you know God's name, and truly believe that he is God. The bible says that even satan does that.
Back to Paul, I do agree with 99 percent of what Paul says and here's a great example..
Romans 2:14-15 (summarized)
(when gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law.. They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts.. )
When one worships God, you don't worship his earthly body, you worship him in spirit, the spirit of love, forgiveness, and mercy,
Even without knowing God's name, doing what's required by God, is pleasing to God.
# Part 3
The reason of earth is solely for the purpose of being judged through the demonstration of one's will, actions, and being.
The bible repeatedly says in order to be shown mercy, that you must show mercy, and in order to be forgiven, that you must forgive.
It would seem that YHWH initially created all life in heaven and because of the apparent evil, created earth as an intermediary place containing elements of both heaven and hell
in where, both, the wheat and the tares are to grow together until the harvest.
#Part 4
People often ask why God doesn't intervene to prevent evil.. simply put.. God cannot fairly condemn a person for a crime that they have not committed. So everything must come to fulfillment before any justifiable judgement takes place
I personally believe that we live many times on earth in order for God's judgement to be fair and irrefutable.
example.. the rich man could say, God, I had everything I needed on Earth, if I had been poor, surely I would have sought you
And the poor man could say, God, I lived a tough life barely getting by, if I had been wealthy, surely I would have praised you.
Therefore living multiple life's in multiple situations, all of humanity will be without excuse..
God is very thorough in everything that he does and He is known as the God of second chances
This would also explain John 21:22-23
Further reasoning behind reincarnation is that..
Many people think that if a baby dies that it automatically goes to heaven, but this is just a common ideal that isn't biblically based and contradicts not only the reason for earth, but how could that baby have had a chance to store up treasures in heaven as Yeshua commands us to.
This belief would also justify abortion in the name of eternal salvation, completely bypassing God's reasoning for earth and the human experience.
The only logical conclusion is
That the babys spirit will be reincarnated until it comes to completion to ensure a
fair chance of judgement and the opportunity to gain the gifts of heaven that Yeshua spoke of.
If a person does infact live a full life but because of circumstance is isolated or unable to help others with acts of charity or other heavenly virtues, would they forever be without heavenly rewards, simply because of earthly circumstance.
Again, the multiple incarnations would assure complete fairness and opportunity to carry out the things we're are instructed to seek.
Love, Forgiveness, & Mercy seem to be the prevailing factors of God's Judgement..
however I believe that all will be judged for every single act no matter how seemingly insignificant.
For those who are forgiven this judgment will affect, rewards and position
For those who are condemned this judgment will affect punishment and disposition.
Not only is there a reward system for those forgiven based on every action ever made. But there is also a ranking system as well, which will probably also entail certain jobs and responsibilities.
In Luke 7:28 Yeshua tells us that there is no man greater than John the Baptist. Then tells us that the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he (greater than John)
This clearly indicates a ranking structure. This will most likely be determined by Love, mercy, forgiveness, sacrifice, charity, etc
Interesting to think of, is the fact that if 2 people were identical in every action committed, yet one of them did something so small like littering once more than the other or gave even one more cent than the other to charity. This would seemingly be the deciding factor of their rank or order in heaven.
##
So the things that the God of the Bible command us to do, just happen to coincide with the foundations and structure of the universe (see article: foundations of the universe)
So if you practice these things in their truest nature, it would seem that you already have God in your heart.
