  1. I love this. Sometimes I struggle to understand exactly what I'm reading in the Bible (especially the old testament). I've started to watch these videos before I start reading a new book of the Bible and it has made all the difference in my understanding of what I read.

  2. Is Isaiah a FALSE prophet,

    because THAT prophecy did NOT come true

    OR

    is the verse WRONGLY TRANSLATED?

    =============================

    Isa 9:6

    For unto us a CHILD is born,

    # CHILD = SON JEHOSHUA #

    unto us a SON is given:

    # SON = SON JEHOSHUA IS GIVEN #

    and the government shall be upon his shoulder:

    # JEHOSHUA SHALL HAVE GOVERNMENT #

    ………………………..

    and

    ………………………..

    Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father,

    # GOD FATHER JHVH #

    # SAY: # his name shall be called

    The Prince of Peace.

    # SON JEHOSHUA IS PRINCE OF PEACE #

    Isa 9:6

  3. Not sure the charge was Idolatry but rather it was their vain empty devotion. Isaiah 1 verse 11 to what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices onto me ?saith the LORD: I am full of burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
    If you read through to verse 14 it will be made clear they met the requirements of the law.
    They weren't sacrificing to Idols but were actually quite zealous and meticulous in their worship unto the lord.
    The charge was their hands were full of blood, they had not forsaken their sins, verse 15.
    1 Sam 15 verse 22 And Samuel said, hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD!
    Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of Rams.

    There is a distinction between Idolatry and empty vain worship.

  4. It's just a collapse for lack of national power, but this book described as a judgment of God's judgment. Giving meaning makes the same thing look different. I've seen a lot of references to Isaiah in the New Testament, because there are many verses about Messiah.

  5. Speaking about Judgement,
    I say the BIBLE PROJECT TEAM WRITES THE REAL STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS.
    We need less medically induced blood diseases. We need colleges that teach real electronic computer business skill sets and excell and more affordable trade schools.We need more troops back than far away. Incredible the organization of this team. Real executive function. Thanks

  6. In Revelation we read about the EVERLASTING GOSPEL that is given from the midheavens in the last days: (which I am doing) WHY midheavens? It is our heart! Why everlasting? It is the WORD that is always made flesh and it is the WORD made flesh that makes the Jew, not the other way around: Abraham according to Jewish teachings is the FIRST Jew but he was a Babylonian, not a Jew: What makes a Jew? A circumcised heart and what circumcises the heart? The SWORD (WORD) of Christ coming to it like a "SEED" hence the seed of the woman (heart) is Abraham's SEED as well. The whole world could not hold the books written of him because we are the LIVING BOOKS from time eternal to now, hence TODAY if you hear his voice, TODAY is the DAY of salvation. If your heart is circumcised by the WORD, then you are also a Jew and if it is not, then you are not a Jew according to the Bible no matter what nation you are born in naturally for we are BY NATURE the children of wrath: Jews have no beginning but Abraham, so they are not ethnic and besides, the children of flesh and blood are not the children of God, they are HIS CREATION. To be a son, you have to be "born from above". So painting Jesus in your own ethnicity is perfectly fine: Every nation and every tongue that gives BIRTH to the SEED OF THE WOMAN (Mark 4) is his mother, his brother and his sister. Jesus Christ the SAME, yesterday, TODAY and forever more. The problem is that without DOING the WILL of his Father, you don't get to experience the SEED of the woman (your heart) so you never really KNOW him, hence you don't really "KNOW" in whom you believe. Jesus Christ is the SON OF GOD that is born through the heart making him the KING of the Jews, (son of David) and the KING of Israel because the heart is Israel but only the circumcised part is the JEW. He is also the "son of Adam/man, because he resurrects Adam, making him the Last Adam in whom we are all made alive as we all died in the first Adam. SO Christ is born through Judah is the part of the heart that is the GOOD GROUND, the virgin ground of being hence the ROOT and OFFSPRING of David. Judah has to become David/beloved in us, because this is the part of the heart God chose to be born through. This is why it says JUDAH shall plow (go deep into the heart) Ephraim shall ride (GO WIDE) and Jacob shall break up his clods: Jacob is the name of Israel before he has been completely sanctified, which is why it says GOD WILL SEND A DELIVERER TO TURN ALL UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB (ROMANS 11) which he must do within the heart of the temple. God is always LOOKING to the heart to see where it is in terms of receiving him. When the seed finds the good ground in our heart, Judah, then it is separated till all Israel is gathered to Judah/David (GEN 49 in the last days. Till all Jacob becomes Israel the heart and soul of the temple is not pure, hence the pure in heart shall see God. The heart is also the INNER COURT, the HOLY PLACE): Yet Mathew 24 explains the ABOMINATION that causes DESOLATION is in the HOLY PLACE, where it ought not be: Jesus also says, YOUR HOUSE will be left to you DESOLATE till you say BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME of the LORD. Israel took a vow to rid the world of this DESOLATION that is in the heart of mankind, hence the heart is wicked above all things: WHY? BECAUSE it made us all fall by the wrong desire, the desire to "know" God without obeying God. So God made it so we would "KNOW" in whom we must all ultimately believe to be FREE of "self" (sin) which is separation FROM God: Jesus is that SEED of the heart, the woman that will rid us of this abomination that causes DESOLATION: JESUS CHRIST comes to destroy this antichrist spirit that sits in the temple making himself god (Satan is the god of this world and our carnal mind is his seed): Yet God will "LET" (he lets us remain a vessel of vanity that he created) till he removes that vessel by destroying it with the BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING and the TRUTH of his appearing. So the SEED of the woman is the CHILD that shall lead us to all righteousness and as we decrease (as a Royal and HOLY PRIESTHOOD) she he can INCREASE to become the FULL STATURE OF THE INNER MAN OF OUR HEART: That is the Bible story in a nut shell: As for Ephesians, written to the church of Ephesus (permitted forward) it is also the first candlestick of the seven churches, meaning it is the FIRST part of the candlestick in the heart (inner court, HOLY PLACE where the MENORAH is found) that Christ lights in us (yes we are all seven churches/chakra energy centers of the heart that have to be LIT). Ephesus means the heart is now lit by the power of the HOLINESS that will correct the whole heart and "MIND" as well (Laodecia). Christ does make all things NEW IN US, one degree, one inch at a time, for we can not add an inch to our own stature because only God can make all things GROW: Last point, this is how God builds his house (through prophecy) when the WORD born through the heart (ONLY BEGOTTEN in everyone's heart) speaks through the heart to renew our mind and this is the NEW TESTAMENT, the NEW COVENANT where God is not just with us but "WITHIN" us, within our heart and mind, hence I will DO A NEW THING in the earth, a woman (heart) SHALL compass a MAN (THE LORD) and he will guide is from within Emmanuel.

  7. GOD PEOPLE IS "ISRAEL" AKA ISRAELITES….THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY WILL DESCRIBE WHO ARE THE ISRAELITES IN DETAIL…US SO CALLED "BLACK PEOPLE " in AMERICA Are the Descendants of the TRIBE OF 'JUDAH" ..BROUGHT HERE BY SLAVE SHIPS..AND SOLD TO OUR ENEMIES (DEUTERONOMY 28:68)
