The Lord Jesus is defeating The Last Jedi!



I knew something was wrong with Star Wars Episode VIII The Last Jedi back when the trailer was released on Good Friday, 2016! I even wrote a post about how sacreligious it was to steal attention from Christ's Day of Passion and when He paid for sins of all mankind with a Star Wars trailer! (see the post, https://sirjeffreypendragonblog.blogspot.com/2017/04/disney-does-it-again.html). I became even more dismayed when I watched the trailer and heard Luke Skywalker, the ultimate Jedi and Paladin of the Star Wars franchise urging Rey to feel both "The Light Side and Dark Side, to use both," and the one liner, "The Jedi must end." I went on and on about how this was antithetical to Luke's character, who had told the Emperor, "No. I will never turn to Dark Side. You have failed your highness, I am Jedi like my Father before me." (Star Wars Episode VI: The Return of Jedi). Then when the Last Jedi was released I read the reviews that SPOLIERS, told of Luke's quest to purge the Jedi from Galaxy, to burn down the last Jedi Temple, tossing His father's Lightsaber (an heirloom) over his shoulder and off a cliff, and how Rian Johnson's entire direction for the franchise was to purge the Jedi more thoroughly than Darth Vader could have dreamed in Revenge of Sith, only it meant the Sith too, because if the Jedi should end, shouldn't the Sith? What is the point? The Force is abandoned and Jedi ended, with Luke Skywalker commiting apostasy and abandoning the Jedi Teachings, and them essentially disappearing from Galaxy. A Far, Far, Away... A New Hope Lost (Paradise Lost), or so it seemed...

Upon seeing trailer back in April of '16, and seeing the roll out of toys and how dark they appeared, I and another prayer warrior began to pray that Disney and this venture to destroy the Jedi, and the Star Wars franchise which began as in words of George Lucas, "I wanted to tell this story (Star Wars), because I saw a deep void in next generation, a lack of values, and it felt incumbent upon me to bring back morals of good and evil, right and wrong, Judeo-Christian values." Disney and Rian Johnson almost destroyed the legacy of the Jedi, and the parables of Bible in Star Wars, but through prayer, audiences and even cast members are in full REBELLION! Mark Hamill is denouncing the Luke Skywalker of The Last Jedi (see full article and interview: https://www.yahoo.com/news/mark-hamill-rips-role-apos-145123576.html), in the interview Luke Skywalker himself says, "I said to Rian, I said ‘Jedis don’t give up.’ I mean, even if he had a problem, he would maybe take a year to try and regroup, but if he made a mistake he would try and right that wrong, so right there, we had a fundamental difference." (HuffPost). Fans have rallied prior to Skywalker's stirring affirmation of the Imperialistic Last Jedi debacle at Rotten Tamatoes.com and through audience scores have dwindled the score for the Last Jedi from opening night to present day, and now Forbes magazine confirms that The Last Jedi has grossed the lowest of all nine Star Wars films (see artice, https://www.forbes.com/sites/robcain/2017/12/22/last-jedi-daily-grosses-are-swiftly-collapsing-the-worst-holds-of-all-9-star-wars-movies/amp/). There is a petition as we speak from fans to Disney Headqaurters, calling for a "remake," and already J.J. Abrams, director of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens has pitched a new script for the sequel to Disney Execs. and Abrams was not suppose to write a sequel or direct one, but he has swooped in on well, a Swoop Bike, to save the franchise from utter doom. 

All of this is the work of the Alpha and Omega, Jesus Christ our Lord and God. Disney made mistake disrespecting Jesus by releasing the Trailer for The Last Jedi on Good Friday (2016), the celebration of Christ's salvic work on cross for our sins (Romans 5:4-11). Supporting our Savior's sword of His Mouth, was His Saints in the Bible belt who refused to buy The Last Jedi merchandise, and many prayers warriors in addition to myself and my relative who called for the LORD to shame The Last Jedi and its obvious attempt to point a Death Star at the values and soul of the Star Wars franchise, The Force, and its adherants on both sides of spectrum, The Jedi and Sith. Disney in its arrogance believed it could undermine the very fabric and heart of A Galaxy, Far, Far, Away... but as Emperor Palpatine was lectured in ROTJ, so are they by same Luke Skywalker: 



Disney has failed, like the Super Star Destroyer crashing into the Death Star II. They not only messed with the wrong Jedi, they actually tore at the fabric of all the Episodes. If Luke loses faith in Light Side, and Jedi End, there is no point to any of the other episodes. There was no reason for Luke to turn Vader (Anakin) back to Light Side in Return of Jedi, there was no reason for Anakin to purge the Jedi as Sith Lord in Revenge of Sith, there was no reason for Yoda to become hermit on Degobah to preserve the teachings of Jedi, there was no reason to hide Luke and Liea from the Emperor all those years, and finally it was pointless to demonstrate that love was more powerful than hate, the Light Side stronger than the Dark Side in The Force Awakens when Rey defeated Kylo Ren in their duel. In fact The Last Jedi upheaval of a story line undermines some of most iconic dialogue in Star Was Saga, an example being when Luke asks Yoda, "Is the Dark Side stronger?" Yoda responds, "No, quicker, more seductive." When Luke asks, "How will I know the good side from the bad?" Yoda responds, "You will know when your calm [allusion to 1 Kings 19:12]." (Star Wars Episode VI: The Empire Strikes Back). Disney has not just blundered by attacking Judeo-Christian values in parabolic form in Star Wars, they have completely unraveled the thread of the Star Wars story and the point of the plots that have crossed the stars for Eight Episodes (not counting Rogue One). Disney's faith in Rian was "mistaken," and The Last Jedi is an abomination, not just to myself, but to Mark Hamill or Luke Skywalker, and most of the Fans. Even J.J. Abrams sees the sacrilege, him being Jew married to Catholic, understands values must be safeguarded. 

I am not saying Mr. Hamill and the SW Fans do not deserve credit. They are taking a stand, a bold one. But I believe they are able to get past the Fear of Dark Side of Disney, because of prayer, and Jesus Christ's hand is breaking the Gates of Hell that is Disney's Occultist tendencies and The Last Jedi Film. George was right, he saw a lack of values in the younger generation, and he helped in some small way guide people into the shallows of morality, as Obi-Wan Kenobi said, "You have taken your first step into a larger world." (Obi-Wan-Kenobi, Episode V: A New Hope). Christ's teachings of serve one another (Galatians 5:13), stand firm (Matthew 24:13), forgiveness (Ephesians 4:32), and love and redemption (John 3:16) all resonate in the Star Wars Saga, with redemption seen in Darth Vader turning from Dark Side, the love of Luke for His father ("And will be a man with the spirit and power of Elijah. He will prepare the people for the coming of the Lord. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and he will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly." -Luke 1:17), the Jedi being about serving Republic and Galaxy as ambassadors (we are ambassadors of Christ see), and above all love being more powerful than anything (God is love 1 John 4:18, and God is all powerful). George Lucas set the foundations of Judeo-Christian values in His Classic Trilogy, and though he wavered in Prequels into some Hindu, Toaist, Shaolin, Shinto, and Zoroastrian views, the ground work in Classic Trilogy was already laid, and Prequels carried much of those values on, with Anakin saying, "The Jedi are selfless, they care only about others," (Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of Sith), "The greatest among you will be servant," (Matthew 23:11), "Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all," (Mark 9:35), and "love one another as I have loved you, this is how they will know you are my disciples, by your love for one another."  (John 13:34-35). 

The point is that there is power in prayer, and though Disney underestimated our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, He has brought low the proud (Isaiah 2:11, Isaiah 5:15), and is humbling the wicked and their teachings! A fire has been lit, many fans may believe it to be simply zeal for their legends and mythology, but I believe this is Holy Spirit at work, stirring even secular people to say "enough is enough! Stop messing with our stories and beliefs therein!" If God can stir people to defend the shadows of Himself found in Star Wars stories ["These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ. These are a shadow of the things to come, but the body that casts it belongs to Christ." Colossians 2:17], then there is hope He can stir people to defend the faith and stand firm to end (Matthew 24:13)! Amen!

Addendum

Rian Johnson is espousing a Nihilistic view, Post Modernism (everyone is right, no one is right), Hinduism, and Nicolaitanism which is a group Jesus says He hates, "But you have this in your favor: You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate." (Revelation 2:6). The Nicolaitans tried to serve Jesus and Satan, they were creeps that Christ loathed and promised to destroy. To use good and evil is Nicolaitanism, so when Luke in The Last Jedi says "use both Light and Dark (sides)." This is Nicolaitanism.

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. The...

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...

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 peop...
