SHALOM!

MEDITATION is definitely taught in The Bible, but few Christians know what It is.

That is because most Christians believe that God gave them Brains- only for someone else to do their thinking for them. They let "Priests" and "Pastors" tell them what to do, because they cannot think for themselves.


. LUKE 16:1-15.

AND he Said also
unto his Disciples,

"There was a certain rich man,
which had a steward;
and the same was accused unto him
that he had wasted his goods.
2. "And he called him,
and said unto him,

'HOW IS IT THAT
I HEAR THIS OF THEE?
GIVE AN ACCOUNT
OF THY STEWARDSHIP;
FOR THOU MAYEST BE
NO LONGER STEWARD.'

3. "Then the steward said
within himself,

'WHAT SHALL I DO?
FOR MY LORD
TAKETH AWAY FROM ME
THE STEWARDSHIP:
I CANNOT DIG,
TO BEG I AM ASHAMED.
4. 'I AM RESOLVED
WHAT TO DO,
THAT, WHEN I AM
PUT OUT OF THE STEWARDSHIP,
THEY MAY RECEIVE ME
INTO THEIR HOUSES.'

5. "So he called every one
of his lord's debtors unto him,
and said unto the first,

'HOW MUCH OWEST THOU
UNTO MY LORD?'

6. "And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES
OF OIL.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND SIT DOWN QUICKLY,
AND WRITE FIFTY.'

7. "Then said he to another,
'AND HOW MUCH
OWEST THOU?'

And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES
OF WHEAT.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND WRITE FOURSCORE.'

8. "And the lord commended
the unjust steward,
because he had done wisely:
for the Children of this World
are in their Generation
wiser than the Children of Light.
9. "And I Say unto you,

'MAKE TO YOURSELVES
FRIENDS OF THE MAMMON
OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS;
THAT, WHEN YE FAIL,
THEY MAY RECEIVE YOU
INTO EVERLASTING HABITATIONS.'

10. "He that is Faithful
in that which is Least
is Faithful also in Much:
and he that is Unjust
in the Least
is Unjust also in Much.
11. "If therefore ye
have not been Faithful
in the Unrighteous Mammon,
who will commit
to your trust
The True Riches?
12. "And if ye have not
been Faithful
in that which is
another man's,
who shall give you
that which is your own?
13. "No Servant can
serve two Masters:
for either he will
hate the one,
and love the other;
or else he will
hold to the one,
and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and Mammon."

14. And the Pharisees also,
who were Covetous,
heard all these things,
and they derided him.
15. And he Said unto them,

"Ye are they
which justify yourselves
before Men;
but God knoweth
your hearts:
for that which is
Highly Esteemed
amongst Men
is Abomination in
The Sight of God."

THE REASON FOR SO-CALLED CHRISTIANS FOLLOWING CLERGYMEN, INSTEAD OF THEIR OWN INTELLGENCE AND INTUITIVE AWARENESS, IS THAT THE CLERGYMEN- APOSTLES, PROPHETS, EVANGELISTS, PASTORS, AND TEACHERS PRETEND TO AUTHORIZE THEMTO BREAK GOD'S COMMANDMENTS, AND JUSTIFY THEIR SINS AND INIQUITIES.

For some insane reason, many people think that FELLOW SINNERS can tell them that the Sin they are committing together, is ignored by God, BECAUSE THEY SAY SO.

Whereas, they know very well, that that Sin they are committing means that they are going to HELL. Therefore, if they follow someone who is going to HELL, that only means that THEY WILL GO TO HELL TOGETHER- no matter what the False Leader says!

This is the only sane way to look at that.

Yet millions of people are proven incapable of arriving at that obvious conclusion, simply because THEIR MINDS ARE IMPAIRED.

It proven by Scientists of the 19th Century, that the average person only uses 10% of what their Minds are capable of doing. However, THE SCRIPTURES had said that since 1,300 years ago.

MEDITATION is God's Remedy for that circumstance.

. JOSHUA 1:8.

8. "This Book of The Law
shall not depart
out of thy mouth
but thou shalt
meditate therein
day and night,
that thou mayest do
according to all
that is written therein:
for then thou shalt
make thy way prosperous,
and then thou shalt have
Good Success."

. PSALM 1:1-6.

BLESSED is the man
that walketh not in
The Counsel of the Ungodly,
nor standeth in
The Way of Sinners,
nor sitteth in
The Seat of the Scornful.
2. But his delight is in
The Law of The LORD;
and in His Law
doth he meditate day and night.
3. And he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit
in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper.
4. The Ungodly are not so:
but are like the chaff
which the wind driveth away.
5. Therefore the Ungodly
shall not stand in the Judgment,
nor Sinners in the Congregation
of the Righteous.
6. For The LORD knoweth
The Way of the Righteous:
but the Way of the Ungodly
shall perish.

. PSALM 119:97-105.

97. O how I love Thy Law!
It is my meditation all the day.
98. Thou through
Thy Commandments
hast made me Wiser
than mine enemies:
for They are ever with me.
99 I have more understanding
than all my teachers:
for Thy Testimonies
are my meditation.
100. I understand more
than the Ancients,
because I keep Thy Precepts.
101. I have refrained my feet
from every Evil Way,
that I might keep Thy Word.
102. I have not departed
from Thy Judgments:
for Thou hast taught me.
103. How sweet are Thy Words
unto my taste!
yea, sweeter than honey
to my mouth!
104. Through Thy Precepts
I get Understanding:
therefore I hate
every False Way.
105. Thy Word is a Lamp
unto my feet,
and a Light unto my path.

PEOPLE FOLLOW FALSE RELIGIONS AND SPIRITUAL TEACHERS BECAUSE THEIR MINDS ARE NOT FULLY CONSCIOUS.

If they were fully conscious, they would definitely not fall into Sin.

This being self-evident, why then is there not a concerted effort by all so-called Christians to attain 100% Consciousnes?

It is very simple: the Clergy use the laity's ignorance against them, and never teach them BIBLICAL MEDITATION.

There are, obviously, untold thousands of Schools Teaching "MEDITATION" in the Western World. These derive their techniques from the Eastern, Asian Schools of the Mind- Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Shinto, Yoga, and others.

These systems are not helpful for the Christian, because they do not have the same purpose as Biblical Meditation.

Whereas, this is what most Western Christians think is meant by "MEDITATION."

I would know no more about MEDITATION than any other Christian, if I had not read two publications most other Christians never read in their lives.

The first was the Apocryphal EPISTLE OF "SAINT" BARNABAS.

The second was GROWING UP SPIRITUALLY, by Kenneth E. Hagin.

The Epistle of Barnabas Teachings on Meditation were useless to me, until I had read KENNETH E. HAGIN'S DEFINITION of the term "MEDITATION."

Every Christian should know this definition. Having learned from L. RON HUBBARD not to create Mysteries, I shall explain right here and right now what THE BIBLE means by "MEDITATION:" It means "TO MURMUR," or "TO MUTTER."

The Bible Promises that one can become an invincible, Sinless, Warrior-before-God, simply by MURMURING or MUTTERING The Law of God by Moses, day-and-night.

This will be totally preposterous to most "BELIEVERS" in The Bible, let alone UNBELIEVERS.

. DEUTERONOMY 6:4-9.

4. Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God
(is) one LORD.
5. And thou shalt love
The LORD thy God
with all thine Heart,
and with all thy Soul,
and with all thy Might.
6. And these Words,
which I Command thee
this day,
shall be in thine Heart.
7. And thou shalt
teach them diligently
unto thy children,
and shalt talk of them
when thou sittest
in thine house,
and when thou
walkest by the way,
and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.
8. And thou shalt bind them
for a sign upon thine hand,
and they shall be
as frontlets
between thine eyes.
9. And thou shalt
write them upon
the posts of thy house,
and on thy gates.

THIS IS HOW THE WORSHIPPERS OF GOD ARE SUPPOSED TO LIVE THEIR LIVES.

The Clergy of EVERY Church, without exception, are all UNJUST STEWARDS, who assure their VICTIMS that FULL SERVICE toward God is UNNECESSARY, and that He will be satisfied with only 80% Theoretical Teaching (Wheat,) and 50% Physical Service (Oil).

YOU HAVE TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE GOING TO FALL FOR THAT, OR RESIST TEMPTATION.

. DEUTERONOMY 12:32-13:5.

32. What thing soever
I Command you,
observe to do it:
thou shalt not add thereto,
nor diminish from it.
IF THERE arise
among you a Prophet,
or a Dreamer of Dreams,
and giveth thee a Sign or a Wonder,
2. And the Sign or the Wonder
come to pass,
whereof he spake unto thee,
saying,

"LET US GO AFTER OTHER GODS,
WHICH THOU HAST NOT KNOWN,
AND LET US SERVE THEM."

3. Thou shalt not hearken
unto the words of that Prophet,
or that Dreamer of Dreams:
for The LORD thy God proveth you,
to know whether ye love
The LORD your God
with all your Heart
and with all your Soul.
4. Ye shall walk after
The LORD your God,
and Fear Him,
and Keep His Commandments,
and obey His Voice,
and ye shall serve Him,
and cleave unto Him.
5. And that Prophet,
or that Dreamer of Dreams,
shall be put to Death;
because he hath spoken
to turn (you) away
from The LORD your God,
Which brought you
out of The Land of Egypt,
and redeemed you
out of The House of Bondage,
to thrust thee out of The Way
which The LORD thy God
Commanded thee to walk in.
So shalt thou put the Evil away
from the midst of thee.

THE FALSE PROPHETS AND FALSE TEACHERS ARE NEVER GOING TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH.

You have to decide whether you are going to seriously serve God, and esteem them your ENEMIES FOR EVER, or else submit to being their Slaves for ever, with no option of Freedom, ever.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GOOD PASTOR OR TEACHER OF THE CHURCH.

They are ALL LIARS, telling us that GOD SENT THEM TO TEACH US to BREAK COMMANDMENTS OF GOD by MOSES and YESHUA.

. MATTHEW 5:16-20.

16. "Let your light
so shine before men,
that they may see
your Good Works,
and glorify your Father
Which is in Heaven.
17. "Think not that I am come
to destroy The Law,
or The Prophets:
I am not come to destroy,
but to fulfil.
18. "For verily I Say unto you,
.
'TILL HEAVEN
AND EARTH PASS,
ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE
SHALL IN NO WISE
PASS FROM THE LAW,
TILL ALL BE FULFILLED.'
.
19. "Whosoever therefore
shall break
one of these least Commandments,
and shall teach men so,
he shall be called the least
in the Kingdom of Heaven:
but whosoever shall do
and teach them,
the same shall be
called great
in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20. "For I Say unto you,

'THAT EXCEPT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
SHALL EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS
OF THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES,
YE SHALL IN NO CASE
ENTER INTO
THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.' "

In Reality, if God sent any Pastor or Teacher to do anything, IT IS TO TEST US, to see whether or not we LOVE HIM, AND HIS SON, WITH ALL OF OUR HEARTS AND WITH ALL OF OUR SOULS.

God never intended for MEN to rule over HIS PEOPLE.

. 1st SAMUEL 8:4-21.

4. Then all the Elders of Israel
gathered themselves together,
and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
5. And said unto him,

"Behold, thou art old,
and thy sons walk not
in thy ways:
now make us a king to judge us
like all the nations."

6. But the thing displeased Samuel,
when they said,

"GIVE US A KING TO JUDGE US."

And Samuel prayed unto The LORD.
7. And The LORD said unto Samuel,

"Hearken unto
The Voice of the People
in all that they say unto thee:
for they have not rejected thee,
but they have rejected Me,
that I should not Reign over them.
8. "According to all the Works
which they have done
since the day that I
brought them up out of Egypt
even unto this Day,
wherewith they have forsaken Me,
and served other gods,
so do they also unto thee.
9. "Now therefore hearken
unto their Voice:
howbeit yet protest solemnly
unto them,
and shew them the manner
of the king that shall reign
over them."

10. And Samuel told
all the Words of The LORD
unto the people that
asked of him a king.
11. And he said,

"This will be
the manner of the king
that shall reign over you:

''HE WILL TAKE YOUR SONS,
AND APPOINT THEM FOR HIMSELF,
FOR HIS CHARIOTS,
AND TO BE HIS HORSEMEN;
AND SOME SHALL RUN
BEFORE HIS CHARIOTS.
12. 'AND HE WILL APPOINT HIM
CAPTAINS OVER THOUSANDS,
AND CAPTAINS OVER FIFTIES;
AND WILL SET THEM
TO EAR HIS GROUND,
AND TO REAP HIS HARVEST,
AND TO MAKE HIS
INSTRUMENTS OF WAR,
AND INSTRUMENTS
OF HIS CHARIOTS.
13. AND HE WILL
TAKE YOUR DAUGHTERS
TO BE CONFECTIONARIES,
AND TO BE COOKS,
AND TO BE BAKERS.
14. 'AND HE WILL TAKE
YOUR FIELDS,
AND YOUR VINEYARDS,
AND YOUR OLIVEYARDS,
EVEN THE BEST OF THEM,
AND GIVE THEM TO HIS SERVANTS.
15. 'AND HE WILL TAKE
THE TENTH OF YOUR SEED,
AND OF YOUR VINEYARDS,
AND GIVE TO HIS OFFICERS,
AND TO HIS SERVANTS.
16. 'AND HE WILL TAKE
YOUR MENSERVANTS,
AND YOUR MAIDSERVANTS,
AND YOUR GOODLIEST YOUNG MEN,
AND YOUR ASSES,
AND PUT THEM TO HIS WORK.
17. 'HE WILL TAKE
THE TENTH OF YOUR SHEEP:
AND YE SHALL BE HIS SERVANTS.
18. 'AND YE SHALL CRY OUT
IN THAT DAY
BECAUSE OF YOUR KING
WHICH YE SHALL
HAVE CHOSEN YOU;
AND THE LORD WILL NOT
HEAR YOU IN THAT DAY.' "

19. Nevertheless the People
refused to obey
the Voice of Samuel;
and they said,

"Nay; but we will have
a king over us;
20. "That we also may be
like all the nations;
and that our king may judge us,
and go out before us,
and fight our battles."

21. And Samuel heard
all the Words of the People,
and he rehearsed them
in the Ears of The LORD."

THIS IS THE SYMBOLIC EXAMPLE OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CHRISTIANS CHOOSE CLERGYMEN TO TEACH THEM, AND TO RULE OVER THEM.

YAHSHUA'S DISCIPLES knew exactly what he had Commanded them.

. LUKE 22:-24-32.

24. And there was also
a strife among them,
which of them should be
accounted the greatest.
25. And he Said unto them,

"The kings of the Gentiles
exercise lordship over them;
and they that exercise
authority upon them
are called "Benefactors."
26. "But ye shall not be so:
but he that is greatest among you,
let him be as the younger;
and he that is chief,
as he that doth serve.
27. "For whether is greater,
he that sitteth at meat,
or he that serveth?
Is not he that sitteth at meat?
But I am among you
as he that serveth.
28. "Ye are they
which have continued with me
in my Temptations.
29. "And I appoint unto you a Kingdom,
as my Father hath appointed unto me;
30. "That ye may eat and drink
at my table in my Kingdom,
and sit on Thrones
judging the Twelve Tribes of Israel."

31. And the Lord Said,

"Simon, Simon, behold,
Satan hath desired to have you,
that he may sift you as wheat:
32. "But I have prayed for thee,
that thy Faith fail not:
and when thou art Converted,
strengthen thy Brethren."

CEPHAS WAS LORD YESHUA'S DISCIPLE FROM THE BEGINNING. Yet, LORD YESHUA told him explicitly, that HE WAS NOT YET CONVERTED!

It can therefore be easily understood why he and his fellow Disciples succumbed to Temptation, and seized Power over The Church FOR THEMSELVES- not for their Lord Yeshua.

. MATTHEW 23:1-15.

THEN Spake Jesus
to the multitude,
and to his Disciples,
2. Saying,

"The scribes
and the Pharisees
sit in Moses' seat:
3. "All therefore whatsoever
they bid you observe,
that observe and do;
but do not ye
after their works:
for they say,
and do not.
4. "For they bind
heavy burdens
and grievous to be borne,
and lay them
on men's shoulders;
but they themselves
will not move them
with one of their fingers.
5. "But all their works
they do
for to be seen of men:
they make broad
their phylacteries,
and enlarge the borders
of their garments,
6. "And love
the Uppermost Rooms
at feasts,
and the Chief Seats
in the Synagogues,
7. "And greetings
in the markets,
and to be called of men,
'Rabbi, Rabbi.'
8. "But be not ye called 'Rabbi:'
for one is your Master,
even Christ;
and all ye are Brethren.
9. "And call no man
your father
upon the Earth:
for one is your Father,
Which is in Heaven.
10. "Neither be ye
called 'masters:'
for one is your Master,
even Christ.
11. "But he that is
greatest among you
shall be your servant.
12. "And whosoever
shall exalt himself
shall be abased;
and he that shall
humble himself
shall be exalted.
13. "But woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites!
for ye shut up
The Kingdom of Heaven
against men:
for ye neither
go in yourselves,
neither suffer ye
them that are entering
to go in.
14. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye devour widows' houses,
and for a pretence
make long prayer:
therefore ye shall receive
The Greater Damnation.
15. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites!
for ye compass Sea and Land
to make one proselyte,
and when he is made,
ye make him twofold more
the Child of Hell
than yourselves."

THEY BECAME EVERYTHING LORD YESHUA WARNED THEM AGAINST BECOMING.

The Clergymen of every Church followed in their footsteps, accruing Honour and Glory FOR THEMSELVES, using The Name of Yeshua to ENSLAVE people falsely.

. EXODUS 21:1-6.

"Now these are the Judgments
which thou shalt set before them.
2. "If thou buy an Hebrew servant,
six years he shall serve:
and in the seventh
he shall go out free for nothing.
3. "If he came in by himself,
he shall go out by himself:
if He were married,
then his wife
shall go out with him.
4. "If his master have
given him a wife,
and she have born him
sons or daughters;
the wife and her children
shall be her master's,
and he shall go out by himself.
5. "And if the servant shall plainly say,

'I LOVE MY MASTER,
MY WIFE, AND MY CHILDREN;
I WILL NOT GO OUT FREE:'

6. "Then his master
shall bring him
unto the judges;
he shall also bring him
to the door,
or unto the door post;
and his master
shall bore his ear through
with an aul;
and he shall serve him
for ever."

THE MASTER-SLAVE RELATIONSHIP IS A FUNDAMENTAL LAW OF EXISTENCE.

It exists on the Earth, and It exists in Heaven.

The OYINBOS abused Slavery, and then turned around to teach us that "SLAVERY IS EVIL."

. EXODUS 21:15-17.

15. "And he that smiteth
his father,
or his mother,
shall be surely
put to death.

16. "And he that stealeth
a man,
and selleth him,
or if he be found in his hand,
he shall surely be put to death.

17. "And he that curseth
his father, or his mother,
shall surely be put to death."

ONLY THE WAY OYINBOS PRACTICE SLAVERY IS WRONG.

The Ultimate Purpose of Slavery is to BESTOW FREEDOM. The Slave is expected to EARN EQUALITY WITH THEIR MASTER. The Slave has the option to REFUSE FREEDOM, and be a Slave for ever. There are circumstances where this may seem a good idea, but IT CANNOT BE THE BEST IDEA.

. MATTHEW 6:19-24.

19. "Lay not up for yourselves
Treasures upon Earth,
where moth and rust
doth corrupt,
and where Thieves
break through and Steal:
20. "But lay up for yourselves
Treasures in Heaven,
where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt,
and where Thieves
do not break through
nor Steal:
21. "For where your
Treasure is,
there will your heart be also.
22. "The Light of the Body
is the Eye:
if therefore thine eye
be single,
thy whole Body
shall be full of Light.
23. "But if thine Eye be Evil,
thy whole Body
shall be full of Darkness.
If therefore the Light
that is in thee
be Darkness,
how great is that Darkness!
24. "No man can
serve two masters:
for either
he will hate the one,
and love the other;
or else he will
hold to the one,
and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve
God and mammon."

THE CHRISTIAN CANNOT BE SLAVE TO ANYONE OTHER THAN LORD YESHUA.

Most Christians do not get this.

This is not a "SUGGESTION:" It is a COMMANDMENT OF GOD. Whosoever breaks It AND teaches others to do so is THE LEAST IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, and DOES NOT LOVE LORD YESHUA.

. MATTHEW 7:12-29.

12. "Therefore all things
whatsoever ye would
that men should do to you,
do ye even so to them:
for this is The Law
and The Prophets.
13. "Enter ye in
at the strait Gate:
for wide is the Gate,
and broad is the Way,
that leadeth to Destruction,
and many there be
which go in thereat:
14. "Because strait is the gate,
and narrow is the Way,
which leadeth unto Life,
and few there be
that find It.
15. Beware of False Prophets,
which come to you
in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are
ravening wolves.
16. "Ye shall know them
by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes
of thorns,
or figs of thistles?
17. "Even so every Good Tree
bringeth forth Good Fruit;
but a Corrupt Tree
bringeth forth Evil Fruit.
18. "A Good Tree
cannot bring forth Evil Fruit,
neither can a Corrupt Tree
bring forth Good Fruit.
19. "Every Tree that
bringeth not forth Good Fruit
is hewn down,
and cast into the fire.
20. "Wherefore by their Fruits
ye shall know them.
21. "Not every one
that saith unto me,
'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into
The Kingdom of Heaven;
but he that doeth
The Will of my Father
Which is in Heaven.
22. "Many will say to me
in That Day,

'LORD, LORD,
HAVE WE NOT
PROPHESIED IN THY NAME?
AND IN THY NAME
HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS?
AND IN THY NAME
DONE MANY
WONDERFUL WORKS?'

23. "And then will I
profess unto them,

'I NEVER KNEW YOU:
DEPART FROM ME,
YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.'

24. "Therefore whosoever
heareth these Sayings of mine,
and doeth them,
I will liken him unto
a Wise man,
which built his house
upon a rock:
25. "And the rain descended,
and the floods came,
and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house;
and it fell not:
for it was founded
upon a rock.
26. "And every one
that heareth these Sayings
of mine,
and doeth them not,
shall be likened unto
a Foolish man,
which built his house
upon the sand:
27. "And the rain descended,
and the floods came,
and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house;
and it fell:
and great was the fall of it."

28. And it came to pass,
when Jesus had ended
these Sayings,
the people were
astonished at his Doctrine:
29. For he Taught them
as (one) having Authority,
and not as the Scribes.

.  JOHN 14:15-27.

15. "If ye love me,
keep my Commandments.
16. "And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you
another Comforter,
that he may abide with you
for ever;
17. "Even the Spirit of Truth;
Whom the World cannot receive,
because It seeth Him not,
neither knoweth Him:
but ye know Him;
for He dwelleth with you,
and shall be in you.
18. "I will not leave you Comfortless:
I will come to you.
19. "Yet a little while,
and the World seeth me no more;
but ye see me:
because I live,
ye shall live also.
20. "At that day ye shall know
that I am in my Father,
and ye in me,
and I in you.
21. "He that hath my Commandments,
and keepeth them,
he it is that loveth me:
and he that loveth me
shall be loved of my Father,
and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him."

22. Judas saith unto him,
not Iscariot,

"Lord, how is it
that thou wilt
manifest thyself unto us,
and not unto the World?"

23. Jesus answered
and Said unto him,

"If a man love me,
he will keep my Words,
and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him,
and make our abode with him.
24. "He that loveth me not
keepeth not my sayings:
and The Word which ye hear
is not mine,
but The Father's Which sent me."
25. "These things
have I spoken unto you,
being (yet) present with you.
26. "But The Comforter,
(Which is) The Holy Ghost,
Whom The Father
will send in my Name,
He shall Teach you all things,
and bring to your remembrance
all things whatsoever
I have said unto you.
27. "Peace I leave with you,
my Peace I give unto you:
not as the World giveth
give I unto you.
Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid."

HOW CAN PEOPLE WHO DO NOT OBEY LORD YESHUA'S TEACHINGS BE CONSIDERED "CHRISTIANS?"

The CLERGYMEN tell EMPLOYERS and EMPLOYEES that they are "CHRISTIANS" in violation of the EXPLICIT COMMANDMENTS OF LORD YESHUA. This Grand Theft Deception does not come FREE of charge, but it is customary for FALSE CHRISTIANS to fork over 10% of their hard-earned earnings to the UNJUST STEWARDS, telling them boldfacedly, that they ARE "Christians," "Saved," "Children of God," "Headed-for-Heaven," "Righteous," and so on, and so forth- whereas IT IS ALL A FANTASY.

.    ISAIAH 44:9-20.

9. They that make
a graven image are
all of them vanity;
and their delectable things
shall not profit;
and they are their own witnesses;
they see not, nor know;
that they may be ashamed.
10. Who hath formed a god,
or molten a graven image
that is profitable for nothing?
11. Behold, all his fellows
shall be ashamed:
and the workmen,
they are of men:
let them all
be gathered together,
let them stand up;
yet they shall fear,
and they shall
be ashamed together.
12. The smith with the tongs
both worketh in the coals,
and fashioneth it with hammers,
and worketh it
with the strength of his arms:
yea, he is hungry,
and his strength faileth:
he drinketh no water,
and is faint.
13. The carpenter
stretcheth out his rule;
he marketh it out with a line;
he fitteth it with planes,
and he marketh it out
with the compass,
and maketh it after
the figure of a man,
according to the beauty of a man;
that it may remain in the house.
14. He heweth him down cedars,
and taketh the cypress and the oak,
which he strengtheneth for himself
among the trees of the forest:
he planteth an ash,
and the rain doth nourish it.
15. Then shall it be
for a man to burn:
for he will take thereof,
and warm himself;
yea, he kindleth it,
and baketh bread;
yea, he maketh a god,
and worshippeth it;
he maketh it a graven image,
and falleth down thereto.
16. He burneth part thereof
in the fire;
with part thereof
he eateth flesh;
he roasteth roast,
and is satisfied:
yea, he warmeth himself,
and saith,

"AHA, I AM WARM,
I HAVE SEEN THE FIRE:"

17. And the residue thereof
he maketh a god,
even his graven image:
he falleth down unto it,
and worshippeth it,
and prayeth unto it,
and saith,

"DELIVER ME;
FOR THOU ART
MY GOD."

18. They have not known
nor understood:
for He hath shut their eyes,
that they cannot see;
and their hearts,
that they cannot understand.
19. And none considereth
in his heart,
neither is there
knowledge nor understanding
to say,

"I HAVE BURNED PART OF IT
IN THE FIRE;
YEA, ALSO I HAVE BAKED BREAD
UPON THE COALS THEREOF;
I HAVE ROASTED FLESH,
AND EATEN IT:
AND SHALL I MAKE
THE RESIDUE THEREOF
AN ABOMINATION?
SHALL I FALL DOWN
TO THE STOCK
OF A TREE?"

20. He feedeth on ashes:
a deceived heart
hath turned him aside,
that he cannot deliver his soul,
nor say,

"IS THERE NOT A LIE
IN MY RIGHT HAND?"

CHRISTIAN RELIGION, FROM THE EARLY CHURCH TO THE CURRENT CHURCHES, HAS BEEN NO DIFFERENT FROM THE IDOLATRY PROPHET ISAIAH DESCRIBED.

Everything RESPECTABLE about every form of "Christianity" we have ever seen or heard of is ESTEEMED TO BE SO. That is to say, their legitimacy is PURELY IMAGINARY.

. 1st John 5:21.

21. Little Children,
keep yourselves from idols.
Amen.

FROM A CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW, THIS IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST JOKES IN THE WHOLE BIBLE!

ISAIAH and YOCHANNAN both warned people against doing the very thing that THEY WERE TEACHING THEIR READERS TO DO: namely, CREATE AN IDOL.

The Prophets and Apostles taught people to make THEM into IDOLS to SERVE instead of GOD.

This is done by IGNORING EVERY COMMONSENSE REASON to NOT make them into IDOLS and WORSHIP and SERVE them, instead of GOD.

Interestingly enough, this Principle applies to how Humans in general, and Christians in particular, have always treated THE UNIVERSE since BIRTH. It is a FUNDAMENTAL ERROR which MEDITATION is THE specific REMEDY for.
Re: Westerners Doing Easterners' Meditation Is "A Mug's Game!" by oaroloye(m): 9:38am On Jun 08, 2019
LORD YESHUA EXPLICITLY COMMANDED HIS DISCIPLES TO BE HUMBLE SERVANTS OF HIS CHURCH.

This was TOTALLY OPPOSITE from what ISRAELITES were brought up from childhood to expect. Therefore, the Disciples faced a CHOICE, once Lord Yeshua was good and gone: whether to OBEY this Commandment, and spend their lives serving people they HATED, and LOOKED DOWN UPON, or to DISOBEY the Commandment, and live like KINGS, with WILLING AND EAGER SLAVES at their BECK and CALL, who were utterly TERRIFIED of them.

If you were in their position, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?

. LUKE 9:51-56.

51. And it came to pass,
when the time was come
that he should be received up,
he stedfastly set his face
to go to Jerusalem,
52. And sent messengers
before his face:
and they went,
and entered into a village
of the Samaritans,
to make ready for him.
53. And they did not
receive him,
because his face
was as though
he would go to Jerusalem.
54. And when his Disciples
James and John saw this,
they said,

"Lord, wilt thou that we
Command Fire to come down
from Heaven,
and consume them,
even as Elias did?"

55. But he turned,
and rebuked them,
and said,

"Ye know not what
manner of spirit ye are of.
56. "For The Son of Man is not
come to destroy men's lives,
but to Save them."

LORD YESHUA PREACHED MERCY, FORGIVENESS, AND AGAPE: ALTRUISTIC LOVE.

There were people who Lord Yeshua met, who seriously needed killing: he killed none of them.

. ACTS 4:32-5:11.

32. And the multitude
of them that believed
were of one heart
and of one soul:
neither said any of them
that ought of the things
which he possessed
was his own;
but they had
all things common.
33. And with great Power
gave the Apostles Witness
of the Resurrection
of the Lord Jesus:
and great Grace
was upon them all.
34. Neither was there
any among them that lacked:
for as many as were
possessors of lands
or houses sold them,
and brought the prices
of the things that were sold,
35. And laid them down
at the Apostles' feet:
and distribution was made
unto every man
according as he had need.
36. And Joses,
who by the Apostles
was surnamed Barnabas,
[which is, being interpreted,
THE SON OF CONSOLATION,]
a Levite,
and of the country of Cyprus,
37. Having land,
sold it,
and brought the money,
and laid it at the Apostles' feet.
BUT a certain man
named Ananias,
with Sapphira his wife,
sold a possession,
2. And kept back
part of the price,
his wife also being privy to it,
and brought a certain part,
and laid it at the Apostles' feet.
3. But Peter said,

"Ananias, why hath Satan
filled thine heart
to lie to The Holy Ghost,
and to keep back part
of the price of the land?
4. "Whiles it remained,
was it not thine own?
And after it was sold,
was it not in thine own power?
Why hast thou conceived
this thing in thine heart?
Thou hast not lied unto men,
but unto God."

5. And Ananias
hearing these words
fell down,
and gave up the ghost:
and great fear
came on all them
that heard these things.
6. And the young men arose,
wound him up,
and carried him out,
and buried him.
7. And it was about
the space of three hours after,
when his wife,
not knowing
what was done,
came in.
8. And Peter answered
unto her,

"Tell me whether ye
sold the land for so much?"

And she said,

"Yea, for so much."

9. Then Peter said unto her,

"How is it that ye have
agreed together to tempt
The Spirit of the Lord?
Behold, the feet of them
which have buried thy husband
are at the door,
and shall carry thee out."

10. Then fell she down
straightway at his feet,
and yielded up the ghost:
and the young men came in,
and found her dead,
and, carrying her forth,
buried her by her husband.
11. And great fear
came upon all the Church,
and upon as many
as heard these things.

IF I HAD HAD THE UPBRINGING THE DISCIPLES HAD, I BELIEVE THAT I WOULD HAVE STAYED WITH THE LORD YESHUA'S COMMANDMENTS, NO MATTER WHAT EVERYBODY ELSE WAS DOING.

That leads me to believe that Lord Yeshua's Disciples were DELIBERATELY CHOSEN for their WEAKNESS and FOOLISHNESS.

They FAILED because THEY WERE NEEDED to FAIL. THE TWELVE DISCIPLES of The Lamb of God is a SPECIAL Office, for ETERNITY. It would be UNJUST for Rulership over The Church to go to people who were JUST LUCKY to be BORN and to have LIVED in THE RIGHT PLACE at THE RIGHT TIME, when there could be people BETTER QUALIFIED, in latter times.

So, the FIRST DISCIPLESHIP was apparently given to FOOLS, who would almost certainly THROW IT AWAY, so that WORTHY RECIPIENTS could receive It.

These belated recipients should best be BLOOD DESCENDANTS OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND YACUB- who are BLACK PEOPLE, similar to IGBOS, ASHANTIS, and BANTUS- but NOT OYINBO JEWS, who are merely DESCENDANTS OF CONVERTS to the JEWISH RELIGION, whose Descendants were never in the EXODUS- similar to the IGBOS- whose claim to be Israelites is legitimate. (They are the descendants of ERI, the fifth son of GAD- who bailed from Egypt before the Exodus, and were never in the Mosaic Covenant.)

BARNABAS SEEMS TO BE THE ONLY ISRAELITE IN HISTORY WHO UNDERSTOOD THE KOSHER/TRIEF LAW. That is because he was the only one with the sense to WRITE DOWN his REVELATION. I am certain that, had he not done THAT, we would NEVER have figured this out on our own.

[Recycled Post:]

THE KOSHER/TREIF LAW is GOD'S MASTER KEY for Discerning, Interpreting, and Assimilating HIS WORD in particular, and TRUTH in general.

That Knowledge is found in NO other Ancient Writing but THE EPISTLE OF BARNABAS in "THE APOCRYPHA."

. THE EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 9:1-20.

BUT why did Moses say

"YE SHALL NOT EAT
OF THE SWINE,
NEITHER THE EAGLE
NOR THE HAWK;
NOR THE CROW;
NOR ANY FISH THAT HAS NOT
A SCALE UPON HIM?"

answer, that in the spiritual sense,
he comprehended three doctrines,
that were to be gathered from thence.

2. Besides which he says to them
in the Book of Deuteronomy,

"AND I WILL GIVE MY STATUTES
UNTO THIS PEOPLE."

Wherefore it is not
the Command of God
that they should
not eat these things;
but Moses in The Spirit
spake unto them.

3. Now the sow
he forbade them to eat;
meaning thus much;

Thou shalt not join thyself
to such persons as are
like unto swine;
who whilst they live in pleasure,
forget their God;
but when any want pinches them,
then they know The LORD;
as the sow when she is full
knows not her master;
but when she is hungry
she makes a noise;
and being again fed,
is silent.

4. "NEITHER," says He,
"SHALT THOU EAT THE EAGLE,
NOR THE HAWK,
NOR THE KITE,
NOR THE CROW;"

that is thou shalt not
keep company with
such kind of men as know not
how by their labour and sweat
to get themselves food:
but injuriously ravish away
the things of others;
and watch how,
to lay snares for them;
when at the same time
they appear to live
in perfect innocence.

5. [So these birds alone seek not
food for themselves, but]
sitting idle seek how
they may eat of the flesh
others have provided;
being destructive
through their wickedness.

6. "NEITHER," says He,
"SHALT THOU EAT THE LAMPREY,
NOR THE POLYPUS,
NOR THE CUTTLE-FISH;"

That is, thou shalt not
be like such men,
by using to converse with them;
who are altogether wicked
and adjudged to death.
For so those Fishes
are alone accursed,
and wallow in the mire,
nor swim as other fishes,
but tumble in the dirt
at the bottom of the deep.

7. "BUT" He adds,
"NEITHER SHALT THOU
EAT OF THE HARE."

To what end?—To signify
this to us;

"THOU SHALT NOT
BE AN ADULTERER;
NOR LIKEN THYSELF
TO SUCH PERSONS."

For the Hare every year
multiplies the places
of its conception;
and so many years as it lives,
so many it has.

8. "NEITHER SHALT THOU
EAT OF THE HYENA;"

That is, again,
be not an Adulterer,
nor a corruptor of others;
neither be like to such.
And wherefore so?

Because that creature
every year changes its kind,
and is sometimes male
and sometimes female.

9. For which cause
also he justly hated the Weasel;
to the end that they should
not be like such persons
who with their mouths
commit wickedness
by reason of their uncleanness;
nor join themselves
with those impure women,
who with their mouths
commit wickedness.
Because that animal
conceives with its mouth.

10. Moses, therefore,
speaking as concerning meats,
delivered indeed
three great precepts to them
in the spiritual signification
of those commands.
But they according to
the desires of the flesh,
understood him as if
he had only meant it of meats.

11. And therefore David took aright
The Knowledge of
His threefold Command,
saying in like manner.

12. "BLESSED IS THE MAN
THAT HATH NOT WALKED
IN THE COUNSEL
OF THE UNGODLY;"

as the Fishes before mentioned
in the bottom of the deep in Darkness.

13. "NOR STOOD
IN THE WAY OF SINNERS,"

as they who seem
to fear The LORD,
but yet Sin,
as the Sow.

14. "AND HATH NOT SAT
IN THE SEAT
OF THE SCORNERS;"

as those Birds who sit
and watch that they may devour.

15. Here you have The Law
concerning meat
perfectly set forth,
and according to
The True Knowledge of it.

16. "BUT," says Moses,
"YE SHALL EAT ALL
THAT DIVIDETH THE HOOF,
AND CHEWETH THE CUD."

Signifying thereby
such an one as
having taken his food,
knows Him that nourisheth him;
and resting upon Him,
rejoiceth in Him.

17. And in this he spake well,
having respect
to The Commandment.
What, therefore, is it that he says?
—That we should hold fast to them
that fear The Lord;
with those who Meditate
on The Command of the Word
which they have received
in their heart;
with those that declare
The Righteous Judgments
of The LORD,
and keep His Commandments;

18. In short, with those
who know that to Meditate
is a work of pleasure, and therefore exercise themselves in the word of The LORD.

19. But why might they eat
those that clave the hoof?
—Because the Righteous liveth
in this present World;
but his expectation is fixed
upon the other.
See, Brethren,
how admirably Moses
commanded these things.

20. But how should we
thus know all this,
and understand it?
We, therefore,
understanding aright
The Commandments,
speak as The LORD
would have us.
Wherefore He has
circumcised our ears
and our hearts,
that we might
Know these Things.

I BELIEVE THAT BARNABAS MISSED SOME IMPORTANT POINTS, BUT THAT HIS MISSING THOSE POINTS IS NOT IMPORTANT.

If HIS interpretation of The Kosher/Treif Law had been implemented, THE CHRISTIAN CHURCHES WOULD HAVE BECOME UNCONTROLLABLE!

. JOHN 6:35-63.

35. And Jesus Said unto them,

“I am The Bread of Life.
He that cometh to me
shall never Hunger,
and he that believeth in me
shall never Thirst.
36. "But I said unto you
that ye also have seen me,
and believe not.
37. "All that The Father giveth me
shall come to me,
and him that cometh to me
I will in no wise cast out.
38. "For I came down from Heaven,
not to do Mine own will,
but The Will of Him that sent me.
39. "And this is The Father’s Will
Who hath sent Me,

'THAT OF ALL WHICH
HE HATH GIVEN ME
I SHOULD LOSE NOTHING,
BUT SHOULD RAISE IT UP AGAIN
AT THE LAST DAY.'

40. "And this is The Will
of Him that sent me:

'THAT EVERY ONE
WHO SEETH THE SON
AND BELIEVETH IN HIM
MAY HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE,
AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP
AT THE LAST DAY.' "

41. The Jews then murmured at Him,
because he Said,

“I AM THE BREAD
WHICH CAME DOWN
FROM HEAVEN.”

42. And they said,

“Is not this Jesus,
the son of Joseph,
whose father and mother
we know?
How is it then that he Saith,

‘I CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN?' "

43. Jesus therefore answered
and Said unto them,

“Murmur not among yourselves.
44. "No man can come to me
unless The Father
Who hath sent me draw him;
and I will raise him up
at The Last Day.
45. "It is written in the Prophets:

‘AND THEY SHALL BE
ALL TAUGHT BY GOD.’

Every man therefore
that hath heard and hath learned
From The Father
cometh unto me.
46. "Not that any man
hath seen The Father,
save he that is of God;
he hath seen The Father.
47. "Verily, verily I Say unto you,

'HE THAT BELIEVETH ON ME
HATH EVERLASTING LIFE.'

48. "I am that Bread of Life.
49. "Your fathers ate manna
in the Wilderness, and are dead.
50. "This is the Bread
Which cometh down from Heaven,
that a man may eat thereof
and not die.
51. "I am The Living Bread
Which came down from Heaven.
If any man eat of this Bread,
he shall live for ever;
and The Bread that I will give
is My flesh,
which I will give
for the Life of the World.”

52. The Jews therefore
strove among themselves,
saying,

“How can this man
give us his flesh to eat?”

53 Then Jesus Said unto them,

“Verily, verily I Say unto you,

'UNLESS YE EAT THE FLESH
OF THE SON OF MAN,
AND DRINK HIS BLOOD,
YE HAVE NO LIFE IN YOU.'

54. "Whoso eateth my flesh
and drinketh my blood
hath Eternal Life,
and I will raise him up
at the Last Day.
55. "For my flesh is Meat indeed,
and my blood is Drink indeed.
56. "He that eateth my flesh
and drinketh My blood
dwelleth in Me,
and I in him.
57. "As The Living Father
hath sent me,
and I live by The Father,
so he that eateth Me,
even he shall live by Me.
58. "This is that Bread
Which came down from Heaven,
not as your fathers ate manna
and are dead;
he that eateth of this Bread
shall live for ever.”

59. These things said he
in the Synagogue
as He taught in Capernaum.
60. Many of His Disciples therefore,
when they had heard this,
said,

“This is a hard saying;
who can hear it?”

61. When Jesus knew in himself
that his Disciples murmured at it,
he Said unto them,

“Doth this offend you?
62. "What if ye shall see
The Son of Man ascend up
where He was before?
63. "It is the Spirit that quickeneth;
the flesh profiteth nothing.
The Words that I Speak unto you,
they are spirit,
and they are life."

. JOHN 8:30-32.

As he Spake these Words,
many believed on him.
31. Then Said Jesus
to those Jews which
believed on him,

"If ye continue
in my Word,
(then) are ye
my Disciples indeed;
32. "And ye shall
know The Truth,
and The Truth
shall make you free."

THE TRUTH IS KNOWN ONLY BY CONTINUING IN THE WORDS OF LORD YAHSHUA.

This is "THE" TRUTH:

. THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER. (Matthew 25:1-46.)

1. TOTAL RECALL.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION.
3. TELEKINESIS.
4. TELEPORTATION.
5. TRANSLATION.
6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE.

This is what you achieve when you follow Yeshua FAITHFULLY.

[End of Recycled Post.]

THE KOSHER/TREIF LAW, OF LEVITICUS 11:1-47, IS ACTUALLY GOD'S SECRET INSTRUCTIONS TO THOSE WHO LOVE HIM, ABOUT HOW TO PROPERLY USE THE MIND IN GENERAL, AND HOW TO ASSIMILATE HIS WORD IN PARTICULAR.

LORD YESHUA added to this with his MATTHEW 18:2-35 TEACHING.

LEVITICUS 11:1-47, and
MATTHEW 18:1-35

must both be thoroughly studied by anyone who wants to MEDITATE- and not lose their SOUL.

The people who "meditate," but do not respect Lord Yeshua's Gospel are clearly LOST SOULS.

There are people who think that they are EXPERT Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Yogis, etc., who say that they see "no incompatibility" between Oriental Religions and Christianity. They are either LEGALLY BLIND, or LYING.

There was a widely-respected, 19th Hindu Sage called RAMAKRISHNA, who claimed to have practiced Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and maybe others, and come away with the conclusion that THEY ALL SERVE THE SAME GOD, and are all going to the same Destination- they are just using DIFFERENT METHODS to achieve the same thing.

I PRACTICED EACH RELIGION FOR A TIME -- HINDUISM, ISLAM, CHRISTIANITY. FURTHERMORE, I FOLLOWED THE PATHS OF THE SAKTAS, VAISHNAVAS, AND VEDANTISTS. I REALIZED THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD TOWARD WHOM ALL ARE TRAVELLING; BUT THE PATHS ARE DIFFERENT.

-SRI RAMAKRISHNA

He had to be LYING, when he said that he had practiced CHRISTIANITY.

. JOHN 6:35.

35. And Jesus Said unto them,

“I am The Bread of Life.
He that cometh to me
shall never Hunger,
and he that believeth in me
shall never Thirst."

IF HE HAD, HE WOULD HAVE STOPPED THERE.

What he practiced was probably Roman Catholicism or Anglicanism. To compare Roman Catholicism or Anglicanism with Hinduism is laughable, because Hinduism has all sorts of Spiritual Knowledge the Christianity of his time didn't even know existed.

This would be the basis of supposed-Christians trying to use Yogic and Buddhist-type Meditational Techniques today, and thinking that they are achieving something.

. MATTHEW 12:41-45.

41. "The men of Nineveh
shall rise in Judgment
with this Generation,
and shall condemn it:
because they repented
at the preaching of Jonas;
and, behold,
a greater than Jonas is here.
42. "The queen of the South
shall rise up in the Judgment
with this Generation,
and shall condemn it:
for she came from
the uttermost parts
of the Earth
to hear
the Wisdom of Solomon;
and, behold,
a greater than Solomon
is here.
43. "When the unclean spirit
is gone out of a man,
he walketh through dry places,
seeking rest,
and findeth none.
44 .Then he saith,

'I WILL RETURN
INTO MY HOUSE
FROM WHENCE
I CAME OUT;'

and when he is come,
he findeth it empty,
swept, and garnished.
45. "Then goeth he,
and taketh with himself
seven other spirits
more wicked than himself,
and they enter in
and dwell there:
and the last state
of that man
is worse than the first.
Even so shall it be also
unto this Wicked Generation."

ATTEMPTING TO ADVANCE ONESELF SPIRITUALLY OR MENTALLY WITHOUT YAHWEH GOD INVARIABLY ENDS IN DEVIL-POSSESSION.

People doing Eastern Meditation boast all sorts of Enlightenment and Spiritual Powers, EXCEPT the ability to recognize Lord Yeshua and Yahweh God.

What good is it, then?

11. And Moses again says about food,

"AND EAT EVERY THING CLOVEN-FOOTED AND
THAT DRAWETH UP [THE CUD.]"

Why says he so ?
Because when
receiving nourishment
it knows Him
who nourishes it,
and resting upon Him
it seems to be made glad.
He spake well,
looking to the Commandment.
What then does he mean?
That we should
join ourselves to those
who fear the LORD,
to those who meditate
in their heart
on the explanation
of the Word
which they have received,
to those who preach
the Judgments
of the LORD
and observe them,
to those who know
that Meditation
is a Work of Gladness,
and to those
who ruminate on
The Word of the Lord.
And why the clovenfooted?
Because the Just man
both walks in this World,
and also looks for
The Holy Age.
Look how well
Moses made his Laws.

they [the Jews] perceive
or understand these things ?
But we,

unto Moses
and to Aaron,
Saying unto them,

2. "Speak unto

saying,

'THESE ARE THE BEASTS
WHICH YE SHALL EAT
AMONG ALL THE BEASTS
THAT ARE ON THE EARTH.'

3. "Whatsoever parteth
the hoof,
and is clovenfooted,
and cheweth the cud,
among the beasts,
that shall ye eat.
4. "Nevertheless these
shall ye not eat of them
that chew the cud,
or of them that
divide the hoof:

because he cheweth the cud,
but divideth not the hoof;
he is unclean unto you.

8. "Of their flesh
shall ye not eat,
and their carcase
shall ye not touch;
they (are) unclean to you.
9. These shall ye eat
of all that are in the waters:
whatsoever hath fins and scales
in the waters,
in the seas, and in the rivers,
them shall ye eat.
10. "And all that have not
fins and scales in the seas,

he departed thence.

MEDITATION IS PERFORMED BY TAKING A MOUTHFUL" OF SCRIPTURE, AND RECITING IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AUDIBLY, UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY BROKEN DOWN INTO ITS COMPONENT ELEMENTS, AND CAN BE "SWALLOWED" IN CONFIDENCE THAT IT WILL "DIGEST."

In the course of doing this, TRUE and UNTRUE interpretations of Scripture will occur to one.

It is the TASK of the MEDITATOR to SEPARATE Truth from Untruth- to KEEP THE TRUE and DISCARD THE UNTRUE.

False Prophets cannot do that, because they do not know THE LAW.

. MATTHEW 4:1-11.

THEN was Jesus
led up of The Spirit
into the wilderness
to be tempted of The Devil.
2. And when he had fasted
forty days and forty nights,
he was afterward an hungred.
3. And when The Tempter
came to him,
he said,

"If thou be the Son of God,
command that these stones
be made bread."

4. But he answered and Said,

"It is written,

'MAN SHALL NOT LIVE
BY BREAD ALONE,
BUT BY EVERY WORD
THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF
THE MOUTH OF GOD.' "

5 Then the Devil taketh him
up into the Holy City,
and setteth him
on a pinnacle of the Temple,
6 And saith unto him,

"If thou be The Son of God,
cast thyself down:
for it is written,

'HE SHALL GIVE HIS ANGELS
CHARGE CONCERNING THEE:
AND IN THEIR HANDS
THEY SHALL BEAR THEE UP,
LEST AT ANY TIME
THOU DASH THY FOOT
AGAINST A STONE.' "

7. Jesus Said unto him,

"It is written again,

'THOU SHALT NOT TEMPT
THE LORD THY GOD.'

8. Again, the Devil taketh him
up into an exceeding high mountain,
and sheweth him
all The Kingdoms of the World,
and the Glory of them;
9. And saith unto him,

"All these things
will I give thee,
if thou wilt fall down
and worship me."

10. Then Saith Jesus unto him,

"Get thee hence, Satan:
for it is written,

'THOU SHALT WORSHIP
THE LORD THY GOD,'

and

'HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE.' "

11. Then the Devil leaveth him,
and, behold,
Angels came
and ministered unto him.

LORD YESHUA COULD NOT HAVE BECOME THE MUHAMMAD OF HIS TIME, BECAUSE HE KNEW THE LAW OF GOD, AND SO REJECTED EVERY "BAD FISH" THE DEVIL THREW HIS WAY.

How many repetitions would it take for you to begin to consider that your initial conclusions MIGHT MAYBE PERHAPS POSSIBLY be TOTALLY WRONG, and that there COULD MAYBE PERHAPS POSSIBLY be ALTERNATIVE EXPLANATIONS?

Please note that BIBLICAL MEDITATION is only designed for people who have READ the ENTIRE LAW OF MOSES- preferably aloud.

Anyone meditating on THE NEW TESTAMENT ought to have READ ALL OF LORD YESHUA'S TEACHINGS first- preferably aloud.

[Cut Recycled Post.]

BARNABAS ERRED in EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 10:11, saying that MEDITATION is in the HEART.

BIBLICAL MEDITATION is done with the MOUTH. To be most effective, YOUR OWN EARS must HEAR what YOUR OWN MOUTH says.

This intensifies the CONSCIOUSNESS of those Scriptures, until It breaks through the barriers holding It back, and bursts through them, into a higher state of being- never to return to Its former ignorance again.

Also, in EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 10:11, he mistakes the true interpretation of "THE CLOVEN-FOOT."

. REVELATION 22:11.

11. "He that is UNJUST,
let him be Unjust still:
and he which is FILTHY,
let him be Filthy still:
and he that is RIGHTEOUS,
let him be Righteous still:
and he that is HOLY,
let him be Holy still."

. MATTHEW 13:1-23.

THE same day went Jesus
out of the house,
and sat by the sea side.
2. And great multitudes
were gathered together
unto him,
so that he went into a ship,
and sat;
and the whole multitude
stood on the shore.
3. And he Spake many things
unto them in Parables,
Saying,
.
"Behold, a Sower
went forth to sow;
4. "And when he sowed,
some seeds fell
by the way side,
and the fowls came
and devoured them up:
5. "Some fell
upon stony places,
where they had not
much earth:
and forthwith they sprung up,
because they had
no deepness of earth:
6. "And when the Sun was up,
they were scorched;
and because they had no root,
they withered away.
7. "And some fell
among thorns;
and the thorns sprung up,
and choked them:
8. "But other fell
into good ground,
and brought forth fruit,
some an hundredfold,
some sixtyfold,
some thirtyfold.
9. "Who hath ears to hear,
let him hear."
.
10. And the Disciples came,
and said unto him,
.
"Why speakest thou
unto them
in Parables?"
.
11. "He answered and Said
unto them,
.
"Because it is given unto you
to know the Mysteries
of The Kingdom of Heaven,
but to them it is not given.
12. "For whosoever hath,
to him shall be given,
and he shall have
more abundance:
but whosoever hath not,
from him shall be
taken away
even that he hath.
13. "Therefore Speak I
to them
in Parables:
because they seeing see not;
and hearing they hear not,
neither do they understand.
14. "And in them is fulfilled
The Prophecy of Esaias,
which saith,

'BY HEARING
YE SHALL HEAR,
AND SHALL NOT UNDERSTAND;
AND SEEING
YE SHALL SEE,
AND SHALL NOT PERCEIVE:
15. 'FOR THIS
PEOPLE'S HEART
IS WAXED GROSS,
AND THEIR EARS
ARE DULL OF HEARING,
AND THEIR EYES
THEY HAVE CLOSED;
LEST AT ANY TIME
THEY SHOULD SEE
WITH THEIR EYES,
AND HEAR
WITH THEIR EARS,
AND SHOULD UNDERSTAND
WITH THEIR HEART,
AND SHOULD BE CONVERTED,
AND I SHOULD HEAL THEM.'

16. "But Blessed
are your eyes,
for they see:
and your ears,
for they hear.
17. "For verily I Say
unto you,

'THAT MANY PROPHETS
AND RIGHTEOUS MEN
HAVE DESIRED TO SEE
THOSE THINGS
WHICH YE SEE,
AND HAVE NOT SEEN THEM;
AND TO HEAR
THOSE THINGS
WHICH YE HEAR,
AND HAVE NOT
HEARD THEM.'

18. "Hear ye therefore
The Parable of the Sower.

19. 'WHEN ANY ONE
HEARETH THE WORD
OF THE KINGDOM,
AND UNDERSTANDETH
IT NOT,
THEN COMETH
THE WICKED ONE,
AND CATCHETH AWAY
THAT WHICH WAS
SOWN IN HIS HEART.
THIS IS HE WHICH
RECEIVED SEED
BY THE WAY SIDE.

20. 'BUT HE THAT
RECEIVED THE SEED
INTO STONY PLACES,
THE SAME IS HE
THAT HEARETH THE WORD,
AND ANON WITH JOY RECEIVETH IT;
21. 'YET HATH HE NOT
ROOT IN HIMSELF,
BUT DURETH FOR A WHILE:
FOR WHEN TRIBULATION
OR PERSECUTION
ARISETH BECAUSE OF
THE WORD,
BY AND BY
HE IS OFFENDED.

22. 'HE ALSO THAT RECEIVETH SEED
AMONG THE THORNS
IS HE THAT
HEARETH THE WORD;
AND THE CARE
OF THE WORLD,
AND THE DECEITFULNESS
OF RICHES,
CHOKE THE WORD,
AND HE
BECOMETH UNFRUITFUL.

23. 'BUT HE THAT
RECEIVED SEED
INTO THE GOOD GROUND
IS HE THAT HEARETH
THE WORD,
AND UNDERSTANDETH IT;
WHICH ALSO BEARETH FRUIT,
AND BRINGETH FORTH,
SOME AN HUNDREDFOLD,
SOME SIXTY,
SOME THIRTY.' "

There are four Spiritual Energy categories: HOLINESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS, FILTHINESS, and UNJUSTNESS.

This would be symbolized by the FOUR LEGS of the Kosher Beast.

But the CLEFT HOOVES would be symbolic of SPIRITUAL (left) and PHYSICAL (right) DUALITY OF EXISTENCE.

SPIRITUALITY without Physicality is WRONG, just as MATERIALISM without Spirituality is also wrong.

To know that this is THE correct interpretation, while that of BARNABAS is wrong, you have to be able to *see* the Soul Body in operation.

I do not pretend to *see* these things myself: I merely interpret the Visions of those who do.

The SEAT OF CONSCIOUSNESS is at the Right Side of the Materialistic person, and the Consciousness becomes more and more Spiritual as it moves leftward.
