Tempest & Tranquility



Before I didst depart for The Holy Land, my brother told me that the Evil One would attempt to dismay and deminsh me and my mother's joy. That he would make us doubt that our visit to Israel wouldst be blissful, that it twould instead be toil, hardship, and perpetual suffering. I can confirm my brother's word of wisdom to be true, for yesterday me and my ma were caught in a tempest of confusion and spiritual enmity. The Fallen One assailed me the entire trip across the Atlantic. He tempted me repeatedly to give into his web of lies. I found myself crucified spiritually and physically, I wast in such pain on the journey that I cried out to my Soverign Lord for his healing. When we arrived at Galilee, the tempest grew into a twister of anxiety and chaos. We lost items and experianced a spirit of divination. Hasatan flooded our minds. He assured us that we wouldst not enjoy this trip, that it twas in vain to come. We even got a filthy room.Events seemed to confirm the voice that spoke against us, only once we did sit and pray to Christ did peace, Shalom fill our hearts. We prayed the manager would be contrite, convicted for putting us in a room that didst not meet Kosher codes.

As I sat and rested in God's presence, we recieved a call from Manager. He decided to uprgrade us to suite at no cost. The suite has balcony that overlook scenery so majestic, so beautiful that it tis difficult to discribe. All I can say is an oasis, trees, foliage, palms, and a view of Mount Arbel, the mountain the Christ himself did climb oft when he dwelt here in this tranquil sanctumn. The Presence of Elohim, of the Almighty is profound. Instantly, I have felt a refeshing, te feel LORD encamped about me. Ultimately, I believe God is teaching me to perseve, to not let Devil beguile me into despair over tribulation or trials. That instead, sufferings should be seen a sign of coming prosperity and ecstacy.

Finally, as I sat in my room and look at splenderious view before me, I thought that I would want to bring my future wife to this place. That it twould be a perfect honeymoon spot. I can see myself taking her to the religious sites, to Churchs where we can pray and commune with Christ. Then resting upon the beach, swimming in the Galilee, and walking amongst the trees in the breeze. O Glorious King let it be! Make her known to me!

Israel’s Conquest of Canaan: The Nephilim and Giants

  Christianity Today asserts that the conquest of Canaan can be a “stumbling block” for believers. This probably is because of a foolish idea of comparing it to a modern conquest happening in our world. The truth is that God had Israel conquer Canaan because it was ruled by evil giants, “We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them.” (Numbers 13:33). These are Anakim or Nephilim, the children of angels and human women, “When man began to multiply on the face of the land and daughters were born to them, the sons of God (angels) saw that the daughters of man were attractive. And they took as their wives any they chose. Then the LORD said, “My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.” The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them. These w

Dispensationalism

John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) was a man who did two things, he took 70th week of the Book of Daniel and stretched out to the End Times, and he was the father of  Dispensationalism , a belief system that God dispenses different peoples with separate blessings and covenants. According to Darb'ys doctrine of Dispensationalism, God dispenses different covenants. There are total of seven dispensations that divide the history of man: I. Dispensation of Innocence (prior to the Fall, "Do not east of the Fruit of Good and Eve, Eden), II. Dispensation of Conscience ( You must assuage guilt and sin with blood sacrifices.) III. Dispensation of Human Government (Multiply and Subdue the world, example the Tower of Babel Gen 11:1-9, and Genesis 1:28). IV. Dispensation of the Promise (Dwell in Canaan, Jerusalem) V. Dispensation of the Law ("Obey the Law of Moses and the Prophets"). VI. Dispensation of Grace (The Church, Jesus Christ has come and died for our sins an

Jesus’ Name in Aramaic

There has been a trend to render Jesus’ name Hebrew, יֵשׁוּעַ , Yeshua. The problem is neither Christ nor his apostles, nor the Jews in 30-33 A.D. spoke Hebrew, they spoke Aramaic. A ramaic is the oldest language on earth and was the language Jesus spoke. In fact, the oldest Old Testament is the Septuagint a Greco translation around 132 B.C.E. (165 Years Before Christ)that was translated from Aramaic. The Masoretic Text, The Hebrew Old Testament most Bibles use, dates from 7th to 10th Century A.D. (Medieval Times).  This translation does not cross reference with the words of Christ in the New Testament which are Aramaic and Koine Greek.  If the Aramaic was what Jesus spoke, then by what name would have been called? Jesus’ name in Aramaic is Isho or Eesho, spelled ܝܫܘܥ . That is the name of our Lord in Aramaic! He would have heard his name in this dialect, “Hail Isho or Eesho!” as well as the Greek, Ἰ ησο ῦ ς , Iesous.  Aramaic is disappearing, only a few people are endeavo
