DOING WHAT JESUS DID – “BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM” – HANUKKAH NIGHT 7

The seventh letter of the Hebrew Alef-Bet is zayin, which has a numerical value of 7 and a pictograph that looks like a sword. Zayin’s pictograph symbolically represents either to cut or to pierce. Therefore, as the seventh day of Hanukkah opens, let’s inspect Yeshua’s fifth Hanukkah “I AM” statement recorded by the sword of the Spirit – “Jesus said to them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM’” (John 8:58 NKJV).

We examined yesterday that the first vav is connected to alef-tav (et) in Scripture. Alef is the first letter of the Hebrew Alef-Bet while tav is the last of twenty-two. Throughout scripture there are random references to alef-tav that have been largely disregarded when the Jewish people read their Bible, or when scripture is translated into other languages, including English. So far, only Hebrew Mystics have tried to delve into the reason for those “random” alef-tavs existing in the written Word of God.

Fundamentally, these “random” alef-tavs are not random at all when you begin with the understanding that alef-tav not only represents all Hebrew Living Letters (i.e., the Hebrew Alef-bet), but also the Word of God from which that Hebrew Living Letters emanate. Messiah Yeshua is called by the name of the “Word of God” in Revelation 19:13, which is called the “sword of the Spirit” in Ephesians 6:17.

When Jesus declared during Hanukkah that “before Abraham was, I AM,” He’s was connecting us to Alef-Tav: “‘I am the Alpha [Alef] and the Omega [Tav],’ says the Lord God [Adonai], ‘who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty [El Shaddai]’” (Revelation 1:8 NASB).

If one takes the Word of God on face value, it’s a no-brainer that the Yeshua Messiah who is and who was and who is to come existed before Abraham and He is unlimited as the Almighty. Being unlimited, Yeshua did not despise coming as the Savior of the World in time within eternity.

As Metatron, Yeshua is the fully Mature Head of the Messiah, which connects to His fully Mature Body. Metatron Messiah Yeshua and company is the righteous keeper of time. The only way to manifest being unlimited due to eternity being set in your heart when you accept Yeshua (Jesus) as Lord and Savior is to be solely connected to the Alef-Tav Messiah. Refer to https://santatizing.wordpress.com/2016/12/16/christmas-tether-to-space-time/.

Within Alef-Tav, the Hebrew letter zayin represents both a sword and the number 7. It is used to rightly divide or cut up time (z’man) into unites of seven according to the Word of God:

• 7TH DAY of the week is the Sabbath [week of days]

• 49TH DAY after Passover (Pesach) is Pentecost (Shavuot) [week of weeks]

• 7TH MONTH of the year is Tishei or simply “7” [week of months]

• 7TH YEAR of rest for the land is the Shemitah [week of years]

• 49TH YEAR is the last jubilee year in a cycle – a Yovel [week of week of years]

• 7TH MILLENNIUM of human history since Adam and Eve were created is the Millennial Kingdom [week of 1000s or weeks of eons]

The number 7 has always been regarded as the number of completion, wholeness, blessing and rest. These “zayin z’man” Biblical marks of time are contained within the Word of God who is Messiah Yeshua and He is unlimited; therefore, those people rightly connected to Him should be unlimited too.

This is one of the most important reasons that God’s people need to hear, understand and do what Yeshua (Jesus) did. When we do as Jesus did, we are operating in the unlimited realm (eternity) simultaneously while existing in time, bringing heaven to earth. When we connect to a false Messiah – an Antichrist – we don’t.

Yeshua celebrated the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah), not Christmas. Please refer to https://santatizing.wordpress.com/2015/12/02/yeshua-celebrated-hanukkah-not-christmas/. How do I know? Well… after Yeshua epiphaneously came to me with tears in His eyes saying “The mixture of Christmas grieves My heart. Come out of Babylon. Lay down Christmas, for I WILL have a pure and spotless Bride,” I was sipping tea in a stunned state and asked Him, “What do we do now?” Yeshua told me: “Do what I did,” then referred me to John 10. At the time I loved Christmas and didn’t know Jesus celebrated the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah) during the winter. For more, please refer to http://wp.me/p158HG-4E and http://wp.me/p158HG-kH.

I have come to find out that Hanukkah is actually the redeemed version of Christmas, because Messiah Yeshua celebrated it. Significantly, Yeshua is the only one specifically shown celebrating Hanukkah in the New Testament, even though all believers are implied in the “Solomon’s Colonnade” reference. See https://santatizing.wordpress.com/2016/12/31/all-believers-meeting-together/.

Know that the first specified Antichrist in scripture celebrated Christmas before it was called Christmas. Antiochus Epiphanes IV of Hanukkah fame placed an image of a Greek sun god idol on God’s Altar on December 25th; and then, sacrificed a pig on that same defiled altar. This is what Yeshua celebrated – the overthrow of Christmas on God’s Altar (our hearts).

We need understand the origins of Christmas. Please refer to http://wp.me/p158HG-1t, http://wp.me/p158HG-2m, or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INypfLsTaPw.

Christmas had two immediate predecessors in the fourth-century when it got assimilated into the Church:

[1] The immediate predecessor for Christmas Day was Mithra’s Winter Festival. The Catholic Encyclopedia admits that: The Nativity of the Unconquered Sun (i.e., Mithra’s Winter Festival) has strong claim on the responsibility for our December 25th date. Mithra was a Persian sun god adopted by the Roman Legion; but more importantly, we should note that the false Metatron figure is Metatron Mithra.

[2] The immediate predecessor for the Christmas Season was the Roman Saturnalia, which is also called the Yuletide Season. Not only was the Saturnalia a season of extreme excess in all carnal indulgences, it’s also the worship of Saturn. When Aaron tried to depict the divinity of the Most High as a golden calf, he looked back to Egypt to the calf that represented the divinity of the ancient Chaldean (Babylonian) god – Saturn – who also anciently connects to the Black Cube that endeavors to control time.

It’s not a coincidence that the Messiah in His fullness (Completely Mature Head of Yeshua with His Completely Mature Body) is called Metatron, and Metatron is the keeper of time. Actually, Metatron Messiah is the keeper of space-time.

Believers will either choose to come out of Babylon and lay down Christmas to become a precious part of His Pure and Spotless Bride, or not. If you choose to keep Christmas, know that you are choosing to connect to a false Messiah – Mithra – as well as choosing to connect to the Black Cube, which symbolizes the Satanic control of space-time.

When believers choose to connect to the true Messiah through our beliefs and our actions, many things in this world grow strangely dim. One of the things growing strangely dim for devout hearts is the tinsel of Christmas. Know that the pure and spotless Bride of the Messiah is completely one with her Beloved Bridegroom Messiah Yeshua in all things, including the marks of time and feasts in the Bible.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

[1] What is the fifth “I AM” statement that Yeshua declared during Hanukkah? Answer: “Before Abraham I AM” in John 8:58.

[2] What is the seventh letter of the Hebrew Alef-Bet and what does it represent” Answer: Zayin, which is a picture of a sword. It represents to cut or to pierce.

[3] How does connecting to Messiah Yeshua and doing what He did make you unlimited?

Happy Hearty Hanukkah!!!

FESTIVE TETHERS TO SPACE-TIME

Many Christians believe that they are connecting to the true Messiah Yeshua (Jesus Christ) during Christmas, but historical proof as well as Scriptural evidence reveals a different eternal reality.

First, always remember that Yeshua celebrated Hanukkah, not Christmas. See John 10:22-23. He has shown us the way of life during the winter one-dear-land season; but more than that He has virtually shown us the eternal reality of the One New Man in the Messiah, which in its 100-percent fullness is called Metatron.

It’s not a coincidence that the Messiah in His fullness is called Metatron. The completely mature head of Yeshua connected to the completely mature members of His body embody many things. Let’s simply focus on Metatron being the keeper of time. Metatron Messiah is the keeper of space-time.

In contrast, the world currently has a false Metatron figure called Metatron Mithra. Metatron Mithra is said to be the god of agriculture and time too. Metatron Mithra embodies the false control of space-time. Stick with me as we paint a picture of Christmas being part of the illusion of space-time that’s connects its adherents to religious Babylon and Saturn (Satan – the prince of this world).

For simplicity sake, we are going to continue to contrast Metatron Messiah with Metatron Mithra. Let’s unlock the Metatron Mithra piece first. The demonic control of space-time is literally connected to the False Messiah – Metatron Mithra. If you and I want to manifest resurrection life and become just like Jesus (connected to the fullness of the heavenly One New Man in the Messiah), we will all have to deal with this issue.

For over eight years now, I have repeatedly revealed that there were two immediate predecessors for Christmas before Rome officially assimilated it into its official church calendar in the fourth-century:
.
[1] CHRISTMAS DAY’s immediate predecessor was Mithra’s Winter Festival, which was also called “The Nativity,” “The Nativity of the Sun,” or “The Nativity of the Unconquered Sun.” The Catholic Encyclopedia admits that the Nativity of the Unconquered Sun has a strong claim on the responsibility of our December 25th date.

Did you catch that? The worship of Metatron Mithra is literally the root of Christmas Day. Mithra was the Persian form of the pagan sun god. The birthday of all sun gods throughout all cultures was celebrated on the ancient winter solstice December 25th before the Roman shift in time. This is a major anchor for tethering God’s people to the illusion of the corrupted reality of space-time.
.
[2] CHRISTMAS SEASON’s immediate predecessor was the ancient Yuletide Season called the Saturnalia. The Saturnalia took carnal indulgences to an extreme. Nine months later all the illegitimate children birthed from the occasion were called Saturnians. When the faithful heathens worshipped Saturn, no fleshly indulgence was too extreme… including adultery, fornication, reveling, idolatry, murder, etc. You get the idea. The worship of Saturn during the winter solstice season basically fills out the list of the works of the flesh that we are not supposed to do if believers want to inherit the Kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:10-11; Galatians 5:19-21).

When the High Priest Aaron fabricated a golden calf to depict God, he was looking back to Egypt to the Apis bull. This golden calf was said to represent the divinity of the ancient Chaldean (Babylonian) god – Saturn.

Which bring us to our topic at hand – being tethered in an unholy way to space-time. The worship of Saturn has been anciently connected to the Black Cube. The Black Cube is the antithesis of the Golden Cube of the New Jerusalem. The Black Cube represents the “god of this world” control of time and space.

Please refer to A Tale of Three Cubes video for more insight => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4PD9_F2xvI&lc 

Christmas Day and the Christmas Season is a double tether to anchor humanity to the false illusion of space-time, which is a false reality that the “god of this world” offers to those who choose to be under his dominion. It’s time to take the red pill or the blue! Are you going to be hot for True Messiah – Metatron Yeshua – and His glorious eternal reality, or are you going to be cold choosing the False Messiah – Metatron Mithra – instead? God is so good. We each get to choose.

Choose this day the Golden Cube or the Black Cube. Choose this day the True Messiah Metatron Yeshua or the False Messiah Metatron Mithra.

Give em heaven!!!

WHEN & WHY CHRISTMAS WAS NAILED INTO THE CHURCH’S CALENDAR

For some reason, God chose to hide the date of Jesus’ birthday when He was extremely detailed about Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection. The first recorded evidence of Christmas ever taking place on December 25th isn’t found until the time of Constantine in AD 336. Know that the first, second, and third century church only celebrated the Biblical Feasts. Here’s a couple videos about where Christmas actually comes from [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvrVXjd-mm8 and [2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INypfLsTaPw.

Even though we really don’t know when Jesus was born, we do know that every pagan sun god in all cultures throughout antiquity had their birthday celebrated on December 25th before the Roman shift in time. The Catholic Encyclopedia admits: The Nativity of the Unconquered Sun (i.e., Mithra’s Winter Festival), celebrated on the 25th of December, has a strong claim on the responsibility of our December date. In fact, celebrating the sun god’s birth (i.e. Christmas) was assimilated into the Christian Church’s ecclesiastical calendar in 379 AD. The “official” Church compromised with a heretical Arianism philosophy, which regarded Jesus solely as a human agent while still proclaiming that Jesus sustained His place in the Holy Trinity. NOTE: The earliest Christians viewed birthday celebrations as heathen.

CRUX FOR GOD’S DWELLING PRESENCE

In the beginning God created a pristine garden and a perfect man (Genesis 1:26). This perfect pre-fallen man was a tri-parti being: body, soul and spirit. His perfection was a body clothed in righteousness, a soul that housed the dwelling place of God, and a spirit that constantly communicated with his Creator. Take note, because His people are returning to this heavenly sweet spot, which is our primordial state AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING.

Let’s review the “cherubim” classification for the New Living Creature of Melchizedek before we go into how the shekinah glory (His Dwelling Presence) remains in you and me. Please refer to the TAKING ON COMMON UNION series: http://wp.me/p2k1dQ-i9.

Scripture tells us that CHERUBIM:

[1] Mark the spot for us returning to our pristine primeval state. They stand at the entrance of the Garden of Eden with a flaming sword which turns every way to keep the way to the Tree of Life (Gen. 3:24).

[2] Mark the Dwelling Place of God, because He “dwells between the cherubim” (Psa. 80:1). In God’s Dwelling Places that have been built here on earth (Tabernacle, Temple and the New Jerusalem), cherubim are the most frequently sculpted, engraved, & embroidered figures made according to a heavenly pattern given by the Lord Himself (Exo. 26:1, 26:31-33; 36:8, 36:35; 1 Kings 6:29-35; 2 Chron. 3:7).

[3] Carriers of God’s throne, which is the seat of His divine glory as well as His royal power (1 Chron. 28:18). Cherubim make up the foundation of His fiery chariot throne that bears God’s Kingdom here on earth (Dan. 7:9; Ezek. 1:22-28; 10:1). God’s royal priests set out for the goal of the high calling to become just like Yeshua — the High Priest of the eternal order of Melchizedek. His Melchizedek Company is the Messenger that will facilitate the kingdoms of this world becoming the kingdoms of our Lord, and His Christ (Rev. 11:15).

This is the context that is essential to understanding the requirements needed for the Lord’s special dwelling presence to stay. His shekinah literally requires holiness. People have tried to boil holiness down to a formula of dos and don’ts, but that will always miss the mark because holiness is a love issue. Doing what Scripture prescribes for holiness taps into the prerequisites for which God’s Presence can dwell among us, but we must always take into account that His people’s hearts must be totally engaged when we seek to lovingly obey Him.

Believers in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob need to consider that the shekinah glory dwelt in the midst of Israel for generations: “The people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption of sons; theirs the divine glory…” (Rom. 9:4). First century believers understood the biblical holiness requirements, which facilitated God’s dwelling presence. When the Holy Spirit fell at Pentecost, the church experienced His manifest presence. They additionally sustained a multi-generational revival for more than three hundred years, because they understood how to live in God’s presence.

For the church to sustain His awe-filled presence today, we need to accurately grasp His minimum requirements for purity and their relevant application in our lives. Please let us learn from history, so we don’t repeat it. God’s dwelling presence departed from the Christian church when the pagan holidays were assimilated into it. Historical proof is seen in the departure of daily miracles from among them. Scriptural proof is spelled out in Ezekiel 8-11. We are not going into this passage in detail today. Please note, as you personally read it that God’s presence slowly and sorrowfully departed, for He longs for His people to repent so His presence may return or remain.

“Son of man, do you see what they are doing … things that will drive Me far from My sanctuary?” (Ezekiel 8:6). The four idolatrous practices listed in Ezekiel 8:3-5, 9-12, 14, 16 originated in Babylon, and the Bible says that they are detestable to God. BTW – These all have to do with pure worship. Today, we will only peek at the fourth and most detestable practice in His eyes that drives Him far from His sanctuary: “So He brought me into the inner court of the LORD’s house; and there, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east, and they were worshiping the sun toward the east” (Ezekiel 8:16 NKJV).

The fourth and most detestable practice was performed in the inner court of the house of the Lord between the porch and the altar. The inner court symbolizes those who are intimately acquainted with God. The porch is a place of traversing back and forth. It can be akin to a heaven and earth connection. The altar was a platform of sacrificial worship, where worshipers endeavored to meet with their God. So these twenty-five or so men, who were bowing down to the sun with their backs toward the temple of the Lord, were His close companions. They were people who knew and loved the Lord; yet they still grievously bowed down to and worshiped the sun, whether they acknowledged the fact or not.

It is not until Ezekiel 9:3 that the departure of God’s presence begins. His shekinah glory moves over His fiery chariot throne – a set apart remnant of His people. Then, His shekinah glory is carried by the Living Creature from the inner court to the threshold of His sanctuary. The Lord hesitates there to see if His people will notice His leaving. Will they repent and welcome His manifest presence back? He waits, then in Ezekiel 10:19 God’s glory moves further away to the eastern gate. He waits again. His people still won’t repent of their idolatry, so God’s shekinah glory moves out of Jerusalem (the city of our God) across the Kidron Valley to the Mount of Olives (Ezekiel 11:23). Then God waits again for the people to turn from their idols. Where’s does Scripture say that the Lord will return? The Mount of Olives both spiritually and physically (Zechariah 14:4).

The pagans in the fourth century recognized their own solar cults in the church’s adoption of the Nativity of the Unconquered Sun (Mithra’s Winter Festival). They recognized the church assimilation of their pagan practices in the orienting cathedrals to the east, worshiping on “sun day,” and celebrating the birth of the sun god deity at the Winter Solstice. Throughout antiquity, all sun gods across all cultures celebrated their birthday on the ancient winter solstice – December 25th – before the Roman shift in time. The Catholic Encyclopedia even documents that the Nativity or Mithra’s Winter Festival has a strong claim on our December 25th date. Never mind the fact that Constantine had the Vatican built atop the hill where the Mithras cult worshiped the sun. History records that it had become common practice in the fifth century for worshipers entering St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome to turn at the door, put their backs to the altar, and bow down to worship the rising sun. See Ezekiel 8:16.

When the Lord says that “Christmas will be the golden calf of America,” He is telling us that it is idolatry in His eyes. The Lord has given each of us the responsibility to prepare a place for Him: “Everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure” (1 John 3:3). His shekinah glory cannot dwell where there is idolatry; therefore, His dwelling presence can not, and will not, coexist with this golden calf we call Christmas. Idolatry is the crux that determines whether His shekinah glory will merely visit His people or dwell among them. If it’s your heart-of-hearts to be part of Yah’s glorious Melchizedek and Bridal companies, you will have to pass through this fire.

MYSTERY OF HIS LOVE

The glorious path through His Winter One-der-land is paved with mystery. Do you hear wisdom crying out speaking a mystery among those who are aiming at being made into His exact same image (1 Corinthians 2:7)? Do you know the great mystery concerning the Messiah and the Church (Ephesians 5:32)? Do you know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God (Mark 4:11)?

Right now an invitation is going out to get lost in the mystery of His love. For indeed, love is an endless mystery where we shall lose it all in order to find ourselves in Him. The Lord of Love Himself is bidding us to come into His chambers of revelation (Rom 16:25), so He can kiss us with restoration.

Winter is key to not only unlock the treasury of snow, but the treasure trove of the mystery of His will for the purpose of gathering all things together in ONE in Christ (Ephesians 1:9).

A MYSTERY is a religious truth that one can only know by revelation. Come to His Beautiful Gate. All mysteries are right before our eyes at His Gate of Awe. When the wind blows, the holy mysteries of God unravel, as we meet Him face-to-face with our bridal veil blowing. Walk in His Winter One-der-land, which is full of His truth and His righteousness that brings a person into the beauty of His holiness. If you’d like to know the fullness of the mysteries of the Messiah and God’s Kingdom via the seven-fold Spirits of God, you will have to step into the way, the truth and the life of His Winter One-der-land.

Not only does Scripture speak of the mysteries of the God’s Kingdom, but its antithesis Mystery, Babylon the Great and its mystery of iniquity. I was surprised that one of the definitions in my Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary revealed that a MYSTERY is a secret religious rite believed (as in Mithraic cults) to impart enduring bliss to the initiate and a cult devoted to such rites.

This little statement may mean nothing to you, but to someone like me, who has studied Christmas for over 10 years, bells started going off. You see Mithraism gave us our modern Christmas Day, which PR says imparts bliss to its participants, but in fact it actually hinders true eternal Bridal bliss for those who worship at the table of Mithra’s Winter Feast. The pagan sun worship of Mithraism, with its hybridized sun god Mithra, had a winter festival called “The Nativity,” or “The Nativity of the Sun,” or “The Nativity of the Unconquered Sun,” which the Catholic Encyclopedia admits has a strong claim on the responsibility for our December 25th date. In fact, Mithra’s Winter Festival was assimilated into the official church calendar in 379 AD. The roots of Christmas speaks of it being a cult devoted to worshiping the birth day of the sun god on the ancient winter solstice before the Roman shift in time. Its origins are from Mystery Babylon. Its practice include sorcery (lies, control, and manipulation); sun god worship; and the land of merchant status (materialism). It’s original image was a golden calf said to represent the divinity of Saturn (Saturnus), which was the same golden image Aaron fashioned to be worshiped. BTW – Saturnalia in Rome is the most immediate predecessor for our modern Christmas Season.

CHANUKAH DEVOTION FOR NIGHT 8:

Right now an invitation is going out to get lost in the mystery of His love. For indeed, love is an endless mystery where we shall lose it all in order to find ourselves in Him. “Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned” (SS 8:7).

The glorious path through His Winter One-der-land is paved with mystery. A treasure trove of the mystery of His will for the purpose of gathering all things together in ONE in Christ is found in winter (Eph. 1:9).

Not only does Scripture speak of the mysteries of the God’s Kingdom, but its antithesis Mystery, Babylon the Great and its mystery of iniquity. The choice is ours to make. Choose this day who you will serve: the Mysteries of Yah, the Messiah and His Kingdom — OR — Mystery Babylon. In spite of the Church’s ardent efforts to bury the truth about its assimilation of Babylonian traditions, reference after reference can be sited of Christmas’ connection to Mystery Babylon.

The first time God’s people came out of Babylon was at the Tower of Babel where they had been trying to make a name for themselves (Gen 11:4). The Bible says that the people of Babel exerted a tremendous amount of energy building a tower of bricks – lest they be scattered. What they feared actually happened. The year of the dispersion of the seventy nations from the Tower of Babel has been recorded in Hebrew History to be 340 years after the flood. Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth were still alive; and Abraham was 48-years-old. “But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be” (Matt. 24:37 NKJV).

The next time the set apart people of God come out of Babylon, they also will have one heart and one mind; but this time, unlike the first time, God’s Holy Priesthood of believers will truly be set on loving the Lord our God with all their heart, soul and strength (Deut. 6:5). This Bridal Company will be one with a common purpose to make God’s name great – totally surrendering all to Him and His Kingdom ways. Coming out of Babylon in this Kingdom Day will result in the One New Man in the Messiah coming into its fullness (Eph. 2:15; 3:14). To do this we must forsake all, but the Lord; and then He will ONEdrously make heaven and earth His Sons of Righteousness’s oyster.

The mystery of His love invitation has gone out: “Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb” (Rev. 19:9 NLT). Obedience to YHVH’s truth and righteousness will bring each of us into the beauty of holiness. Won’t you lose it all that you may find yourself in Him?

DISCUSSION: Please select how you’d like to involve others (there’s freedom to do whatever the Spirit leads):

[1] What mystery was revealed to you today?

[2] What could be better than losing oneself in mystery of His love?
