The Truth At All Cost and Peace If Possible.

Submitted by Ndzimu-unami Emmanuel Moyo. We the People Shall Overcome Fun Fact: did you know that upon conquest by the Kingdoms of Babylonia and Samaria, and later the Graeco-Roman Empire, Hebrew was displaced by Aramaic and later Greek, so much that it only became a language of a few religious Jews and on the verge of extinction? Aramaic Displacement of Hebrew. After the Roman General Titus Flavius Vespasianus Augustus and his 2IC Tiberius Julius Alexander overran Jerusalem and Judea in AD70 during the Siege of Jerusalem and completely ransacking it (and later being overrun by the Turkish Ottoman Empire), Hebrew almost got wiped out, being replaced by Aramaic and later Arabic in Judea and Samaria (later called Palestine).  However, when the Zionist Movement began with the World Zionist Congress in Basil, Switzerland chaired by Dr. Theodore Herzl in 1897, the long road toward the revival of the Jewish State and the Hebrew Language began.  About the same time, Eliezer Ben-Yehuda bega

Topic: *Civil Control and Liberty of Conscious as a stepping stone to Worshipping other gods...* Romanism is now regarded by Protestants with far greater favor than in former years. There is an increasing indifference concerning the doctrines that separate the reformed churches from the papal hierarchy;  *the opinion is gaining ground that, after all, we do not differ so widely upon vital points as has been supposed*,  and that *a little concession on our part will bring us into a better understanding with Rome.* ```The time was when Protestants placed a high value upon the liberty of conscience which has been so dearly purchased.``` *_They taught their children to abhor popery, and held that to remain at peace with Rome would be disloyalty to God_*  But how widely different are the sentiments now expressed.  The defenders of popery declare that she has been maligned; and the Protestant world is inclined to accept the statement. *Many urge that it is unjust to judge the Romish Church*

Topic: Heaven as a branch of physics called infinitismalism. Reference: https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/infinity-is-a-beautiful-concept-and-its-ruining-physics *[[Isa 40:22]]* It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and...that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: The biblical concept of stretching out the heavens is presented in the scientific literature as infinity. Infinity is divided into two concepts.   There are in fact two separate assumptions: “infinitely big” and “infinitely small.” By infinitely big, I mean that space can have infinite volume, that time can continue forever, and that there can be infinitely many physical objects.  By infinitely small, I mean the continuum — the idea that even a liter of space contains an infinite number of points, that space can be stretched out indefinitely without anything bad happening, and that there are quantities in nature that can vary continuously. [[Isa 42:5]]

Topic: Politics and Religion. Sub topic: Secret Societies and Subversive movements. The following verse is a summary of the nature of political societies when they act against religion. They do it in secret societies. *Dan 3:12 KJV There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.* This concluding presentation makes use of parallels to highlight literary styles that are employed to make Daniel 11. It is worth noting however that Daniel 11 uses an interchange of 'pronoun antecedent' relationship frequently. Though this is somewhat tidious in English but it's not so in Hebrew literature... *Role players.* The King of the South is mentioned first. As a strong Kingdom, this power then is overpowered by the King of the North who therefore wins and controls the King of the South permanently.

Topic: Time from a Greek Perspective. Our Savior taught us how to respond when the time of kairos comes upon our spiritual recognition at the beginning of End Times. “And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.  But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end [is] not by and by.” (Luke 21:8‐9)  We are promised times of kairos when we need refreshing from the terrible times that involve our natural lives… Matthew 26:18 - And He said, Go into the city unto a certain man and tell him the Teacher says, The time of Me near is; with you I will keep the Passover, with the disciples of Me.’ This is how the Greek text would loquaciously convey the verse above orally.  *’The time of Me near is…'*  This is the Greek understanding of God in time. This verse would lead the God-man to the cross. As much

Topic: *Time from a Greek Perspective. Part 1.* Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the *times of refreshing* shall come from the presence of the Lord;” (Acts 3:19) The ancient Greeks had two words for marking the differences between the experiences of time: kronos and kairos. "As usual, the Greeks were ahead of us in thinking and speaking about such conundrums. Where we use one word to describe a whole range of things, they had the good sense to use different words to mark distinctions in reality and in experience. “Kronos (or Chronos in the English spelling, from which we take our word chronology) is sequential time. Kronos is the time of clocks and calendars; it can be quantified and measured. Kronos is linear, moving inexorably out of the determinate past toward the determined future, and has no freedom.  Kairos is numinous time. Kairos is a time of festivals and fantasies; it cannot be controlled or possessed. Kairos is circular

Topic: The Sabbath and Cosmology and Sunday as the Mark of the Beast, Part 3 SubTopic: Sources of the week  Sectional topic: Astronomical arguments for the week part 2 Exo 20:9-10 KJV 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God.. The terms 'Six and Seven' remind us of the Genesis 1 account. One question that needs to be answered is 'How do we know which day is the Sabbath?  The genius of the biblical narrative is it's grammar. The nature of the grammar makes it such that the day, *though unknown by name* , can be clearly identifiable by position.  The term " *But the seventh day is the sabbath* "... Tells us whenever the sixth day is,  the Sabbath is the day following. The Nativity story tells us that the birth of Jesus was identified by a Star. Implying that those who were studying the sky where able to identify the day when Jesus was born through the study of Astronomy. The death of Jesus is sa

Topic: The Sabbath and Cosmology and Sunday as the Mark of the Beast, Part 3 SubTopic: Sources of the week  Sectional topic: Astronomical arguments of the week part 1 Pierre LaPlace called the week "the most ancient monument of astronomical knowledge..." The week has been mostly describes as the creation of Jewish theology. However it is undeniable that the Sabbath day has been kept in the memories of the people through the Hebrew economy. Outside the Hebrew society it is the Germanic Tribes in Europe that had a seven day cycle, probably derived from the Helenestic culture through Alexandria  the capital city of the sciences in the 4th century BC. The Genesis account states the following with regards to the creation of the solar system: Gen 1:14-19 KJV 14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the he

Topic: Sabbath and the Mark Of The Beast Part 2 Subtopic: The Sabbath as a defining apparatus. The term Mark of the beast is found in this verse: Rev 13:17 KJV And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. It's very clear from that verse, that we can not know what the mark of the beast is. However chapter 14 of the same book gives us a clue on how to think with regards to the mark of the beast: Rev 14:9-12 KJV *9* And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, *If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark* in his forehead, or in his hand, *10* The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: *11* And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: *and they have no rest day nor ni

Topic: Sabbath and the Mark of the beast, Part 1 Subtopic: Identifying the Sabbath's ordained end as a judicial apparatus of redemption in the prophetic literature of the Hebrew Bible. Isa 58:2 KJV Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the *ordinances of justice;* they take delight in approaching to God. The ordinaces of Justice defines the method used to litigate offenders of the law.  The same method vindicates those that are loyal to the law. The Hebrew theory of salvation is Judicial. While the Papal one is meritocratic. Salvation is defined in the Hebrew Bible using Judicial language. The Sabbath is the mainframe for Salvation.  *Isa 56:1-2 KJV 1 Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed. 2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the

Manna was provided for ancient Israel as provision in the wilderness. It is at this time that the practicality of the  Sabbath and the Sabbath was introduced to the Israelites.  God gave it to them and in relation to the Sabbath they were to both follow the rules on Sabbath observance and follow the rules on how to care for Manna.

Topic: Sabbath and Contemporary Scholarship. What have others said about the Sabbath? God also made the Sabbath holy.[1] Gerhard  Hasel argues that four activities are associated with the seventh day in Genesis 2: (1) God had finished His creative work on that day; (2) God rested from all His creative work on that day; (3) God blessed that day; and (4) God made it holy.[2] This day alone he sanctified.[3]   The root קדשׁ  was used for the first time in connection with the creation of the Sabbath. [4]    When God is the subject of blessing (the verb  בּרך (barak)  is used), it means He is giving His presence; He grants prosperity, well-being, and future. His favor extends to every aspect of life, and His gracious blessings are even warranted by covenant [5] The Sabbath is holy because God fills it with His presence; therefore, the Sabbath is not just a day; but a Person [6] The Sabbath is teaching us to stop, to finish our work as God finished His and paused (Gen 2:1-3). The idea about

Topic: Sabbath as typology of Eternity. The First creation account gives us two phases of creation. That is, the creation of spaces and the filing of spaces with objects.  Humans where created on the sixth day. The following day being the Sabbath day.   The Sabbath stands as a prefigurement of eternity(which is seen as endless time in the presence of God) because His Holiness is in it.  Holiness is a definition of God's presence¹, *Exo 3:5 KJV And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.* The Sabbath as time stands as a prefigurement of eternity, where we are told in Rev 21:3 KJV And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. Here we see the ushering in of eternity, the Sabbath is a typology of the greater reality of God being in time with man.

Topic: Sabbath and Truth. Gen 2:3 KJV And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. The standard of knowing Christ as God and Creator is locked in the Sabbath day. Col 1:16 KJV For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: The Hebrews had a fascinating method of stating a truth through the use of a stylistic literary skill known as a *Hendiyaides*(sic).  This is a way of saying what something is through the use of two words joined together by an "and" eg Wickedness is defined as Sodom and Gomorrah, Universe is heaven and earth. Aquatic life is usually called "...the sea and everything in them..." This expression "he had rested from all his work which God created and made." is punctuated by the term "c

Topic: Sabbath as Tautology A statement that is always true is called a tautology. A tautology is part of logic in propositional mathematics called _sentential form_ in abstract mathematics. While a statement that is always false is called a contradiction, meaning that it is always false regardless of it's settings.  In grammar a tautology is a statement that iterates a phrase.  Isaiah tells us clearly without any doubt that the Sabbath has neither cultural nor racial bounds to it. The Sabbath is not a Hebrew or Jewish institution. A Eunuch is someone who is either lacking the ability to bear children by reason of emasculation or ritual castration(a practice done in false religions), OR he can be considered a minister of government(politician).   Isa 56:3 KJV Neither let the son of the stranger(non Hebrew), that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. The above stateme

Topic: Sabbath as a sign of Redemption Deu 5:15 KJV And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day. Jesus' first recorded sermon on Sabbath was a Messianic sermon, the Bible says that   "... he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.Luk 4:16 KJV The idea of redemption in the Hebrew mindset is quite different to that of most Christian today. Most Christians believe that you're saved by attending a certain denomination and following definite rituals or ceremonial rites.  For a good Hebrew salvation was in adherence to the Law of the fathers or to retain the connection to Abraham.  This made it possible to be saved. Moses wrote in Deuteronomy that salvation is in observing the Sabbath. And remembe

Topic: Sabbath vs Politics Exo 20:9-10 KJV 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: One of the reasons for keeping the Seventh day as the Sabbath is to cease from labour and work. This commandment strikes at the very core of political and civil service relations. The Hebrew idea of Labour is " *to provide a service to another or to work at a profession...*"  While the term work means: public business, either  (a). political  (b). religious The observance of the Sabbath has both political and religious connotations. Religious connotations where felt when Jesus performed miracles on the Sabbath. Luk 13:14 KJV And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, *Th
