Prior to Deuteronomy 12, we have been focused on the the Laws in the desert, but we are going to the Land Promised to our fathers. These desert LAWS, will they cover everything for when we are in The Land?
What follows is the preparation for being in the land. So far we have been in the desert, traveling with the Mishkon(The Temporary Place where HIS NAME is mentioned.) This came with it its own set of LAWS concerning Sacrifice, Praise and Judgment. But, now Moses must give us the LAWS for being in the LAND. The LAWS of Sacrifice, […]
The original “The Last Day”
While I read, my mind connects pieces of information that I know, to the present text. This makes me a slow reader, perhaps because of all I have learned. One tool that has served me well is, asking questions about what I am reading. Much like a the Socratic method, where asking one question leads to more questions, with the goal of stimulating mental activity and strength.
A text that got me started on today’s writings:
“Isaiah 2:19 And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, […]
We see GOD’s POWER everyday and most of us spend little or no time acknowledging what is before us.
Look at your own hand. There are so many components that make your hand. Consider, that inside of one cell, with which you need a microscope to see the cell, is a an absolute miracle. That one cell is has billions of lines of code called DNA, which control every operation of that one cell and its relationship to its surroundings.
Some believe this is an accident and that there is nothing special in this cell. This is ignorance in the […]
Are you one of those people? A person without understanding? Why is this an issue?
Isaiah 27 י כִּי עִיר בְּצוּרָה, בָּדָד, נָוֶה, מְשֻׁלָּח וְנֶעֱזָב כַּמִּדְבָּר; שָׁם יִרְעֶה עֵגֶל וְשָׁם יִרְבָּץ, וְכִלָּה סְעִפֶיהָ. Isaiah 27:10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof
יא בִּיבֹשׁ קְצִירָהּ, תִּשָּׁבַרְנָה, נָשִׁים, בָּאוֹת מְאִירוֹת אוֹתָהּ: כִּי לֹא עַם-בִּינוֹת, הוּא–עַל-כֵּן לֹא-יְרַחֲמֶנּוּ עֹשֵׂהוּ, וְיֹצְרוֹ לֹא יְחֻנֶּנּוּ. {פ} Isaiah 27:11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, […]
The Wall is Truly a troublesome place, for a couple of reasons. First it does not face the Place The LORD placed HIS NAME.
The Second trouble: Why would so many religious leaders, point their followers away from HIS NAME? I will continue this one later. Back to The Wall!
This is a picture I took 20150730, of The Wall. It is a standard first picture of the wall. What we a looking at is the western retaining wall of the Second Temple grounds. Not only is this not an original retaining wall for the Temple King Solomon […]
A man, who strives to be righteous, has apparently terrible personal and financial losses. Is he being punished or blessed?
A man who, by trickery and deceit steals billions from religious organizations, investors and charities, is able to do so for three decades. Where is his punishment? Why doesn’t GOD take matters into HIS HAND? Malachi 3: 13 Your words have been all too strong against Me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say: ‘Wherein have we spoken against thee?’ 14 Ye have said: ‘It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept His charge, […]
This one is an opinion piece. It is My opinion, and is based on many things, only a few will I share in the evidence for my point. This is a very hot topic because of: Political Correctness(PC) – supported by Social Justice(SJ,a phrase which only has a meaning of “What society considers justice today is just.” This has been the downfall of mankind since the beginning of mankind. Okay, so what is the big deal with PC and SJ, if you can walk on water, then a constantly changing definitions of right and wrong will give you no problem. […]
I present this as a discussion. Where I attempt to anticipate your responses and give my responses. I do not mean to offend, so if you do not find this helpful, I am more than happy to do this in person. That way, I can respond directly to your responses. You could write posts to this article.
Through out time we have heard stories about heaven and hell. These are unsubstantiated fantasies.
You: But, wait a minute, what is that statement, “in the world to come” all about if not heaven and hell? Or, Is there information about the world […]

It seems that America by default is on the wrong side of Israel and The GOD thereof.
Where are you? – 0 +?
“Punished by Our Iniquities”, what does that mean?
Isaiah 64:6 And there is none that calleth upon Thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of Thee; for Thou hast hid Thy face from us, and hast consumed us by means of our iniquities.
Exodus 20: 4 . . . . I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me;
Our actions have consequences, while your sin maybe removed from your soul, your actions remain in the world and […]
