Everyone — everyone — frames their world within a body of literature that they have consumed. This could be anytime from nursery rhymes to National Geographic to the NYTimes to the ancient Hebrew writings. Theo (God) logy (from Logos, the Word) takes it’s worldview form the Hebrew and Greek writings, often called the Bible.

Video: Loving Your Own is God’s Commandment

Honoring your father and mother is the fifth of the Ten Commandments.  It was specifically called out by Jesus Christ when he confronted those who invented a moral code to supersede God’s Law.

He who speaks evil of father or mother deserves death (see below), and calling someone a ‘racist’ is the most evil thing you can say of someone in today’s morally warped culture. It is the ultimate slander, the worst accusation.

Moral and religious pretenders of today (the university professors)elevate their traditions above God’s Law, just like the Pharisees and scribes in Jesus’ time.

I love my ancestors more than I love your ancestors.
I will not apologize for that.
I will never slander my ancestors and call them evil (racists).
If that makes me “racist” in someone’s warped sense of  morality, then so be it.

Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, 2 “Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.”

3 And He answered and said to them, “Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother is to be put to death.’

5 But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever I have that would help you has been given to God,” 6 he is not to honor his father or his mother.’ And by this you invalidated the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

7 You hypocrites, rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you:

8 ‘This people honors Me with their lips,
But their heart is far away from Me.
9 ‘But in vain do they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.’”

Matthew 15:1-9

Calling someone a “racist” is hate speech.  Wake up.

Judaism as the Traditions of Men and the Traitors of Christ

Judaism as the Traditions of Men and the Traitors of Christ

This article explains the relationship of Jesus Christ with the Jews.  He didn’t like the Jews. And the Jews didn’t like him.

John the Baptist did not like the Jews.

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance; and do not suppose that you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham for our father’; for I say to you that from these stones God is able to raise up children to Abraham. 10 The axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

11 “As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you [h]with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

Commentary:

  • “You brood of vipers!”  Who are the viper’s brood? Who is the viper?  The Viper is that old serpent himself, Satan, the Deceiver, the Accuser of the Brethren.   Those leaders of the Jews, the Pharisees and Sadducees, are Satan’s children.
  • “The axe is already laid at the root of the tree, and every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire,” John says. He follows this up with a declaration that when the Christ comes he will “gather his wheat into the barn but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”    This is directed at the Pharisees and Saducees who propagate the “Jewish” religion.  This rejection of “Judaism” was emerged before Christ began his ministry in the Gospel of Matthew.

Christianity has never been an offshoot of Judaism — Judaism rejects the Holy Scripture and invented their own “traditions of men” that are expressed in the Talmud.

The Grand Narrative: From Hebrew to a European Language (Greek)

The Grand Narrative: From Hebrew to a European Language (Greek)

Theology means the word (Logos) of God (Theo).  Theology is important because words change how we thing about who we are.

The words we ingest change how we think; they frame our world and our identity.  This is why the Christian must ingest the Word of God — it frames our identity and perspective. Without the Word of God, some other collection of words and memes will frame what we believe to be true.

I was at a Museum yesterday.   The museum created a narrative within which one’s  understanding of the that (unnamed) country is framed.   This is exactly what the whole body of the Scripture is supposed to do for the Christian and their place in the world.  

The museum was that country’s narrative of identity, meaning and place.  

The Holy Scriptures are God’s narrative of identity, meaning, and place.

The Racism Racket — Why It Must Be Undermined

The Racism Racket — Why It Must Be Undermined

This whole concept of “racism” is a set up by the Great Accuser to accuse Jesus Christ of the greatest sin in history — “racism!”

I am trying to undermine the whole concept of “racism.”
I reject the entire presupposition underlying “don’t be racist.”
I laugh at those who try to earn a merit badge that says, “I’m not a racist.”

Anyone who tries to justify himself by saying “I’m not a racist” has already ceded the argument — this very statement presumes  “I agree that racism is the moral standard.”   If you say this about yourself, you’ve already enslaved yourself to a false narrative.

Free men need to liberate themselves from guilt manipulation — everything  can be boiled down to “racism” by the accusers when they don’t like something.  That is slavery.   This is important on its own for a free people, but it isn’t even the most important thing.

Here is the bigger point: Salvation is based on blood line.

Debt Capitalism is Evil

Debt Capitalism is Evil

Debt is the enjoyment of pleasure now for the payment, plus interest, later.

Wealth is the denial of indulgence now for the abundance of savings later, plus interest.

Hedonism is the enjoyment of life’s carnal pleasures now.

Fidelity is the denial of one’s flesh for the honor of raising children and grandchildren who are loyal (faithful; from fidelity) to one’s God.

The Western economy is built on debt.
Debt Capitalism.

Capitalism today is founded on debt and the creation on money from nothing. 

At the end of the day, the banking system in the United States, and the western world, is built on a monopolistic fractional reserve debt capitalism that rewards the few who  lend at interest money (that they do not own) and punish those who borrow money to live (the 99%).  

This system rewards hedonists and punishes the faithful.  

“Free enterprise” by no means includes the US banking system.

The Great Hate

The Great Hate

Few things will arouse the indignation of unredeemed man more than declaring that Jesus Christ is the only source of eternal salvation — more so even than than declaring that hell awaits the lost.

This one message cannot be compromised and must be spoken all the louder and more frequently.  Liars gloss over the fact that salvation is through Jesus Christ alone, and every wink and nod and inclination to suggest that “we are all one” is a betrayal of Jesus Christ.

This one message will be attacked all the more as every other trifle of dissent is silenced; for to declare that there are two Blood lines, one redeemed, and one lost, is a truth the world refuses to hear and generates a hatred and anger hot and fierce.Jesus is the only way to God.

John 3:14. [Jesus said ]As Moses life up the serpent in the wilderness even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; so that whoever believes in Him has eternal life.

John 4:22.  We worship what we know for salvation is from the Jews.  Whoever drinks of the water I [Jesus] give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water spring up to eternal life.  The woman said, “I knew Messiah is coming (He wo is called Christ); when that One. Comes He will declare all things to us.”  Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you—am He.

Growing Soil — Gardening Nations

Growing Soil — Gardening Nations

I’ve lamented the fact that I’m good at killing things (like deer and elk) but very poor at growing things (like a vegetable garden).  My chickens, egg layers, did well.  But I’ve yet to produce anything close to a garden that I’m proud of.

I’ve wanted to give up and say “well that’s just not my thing.”  But I keep going.  Something inside of me says “you’re not complete until you can grow tomatoes and potatoes.”   So I keep going.  

By now I should have learned some things.  And I have.

Lesson #1.  Before you can grow plants, you have to grow soil.

The Problem With Hate Crimes

The Problem With Hate Crimes

I don’t know what a Hate Crime is.   I hate Islam. I hate self-emmasculation (sex change operations).  I hate the rape of children.  I hate Satan, who would destroy all of Adam’s children.   Am I guilty of a crime? Should I be punished?

What is hate? It can be an emotion.  Hatred can be an intense emotion beyond cold reason.  Or it may be just an expression of profound disagreement, as in “I hate Islam” or “I hate Marxism.”   

What is a hate crime? Is killing a teenager for his tennis shoes a lesser evil than a Black man killing a White cop because the cop is White?

I would say, “no.”  Murder is murder regardless of the motivation.  Killing a man for his tennis shoes is as bad as killing a man because he is White or Black or Gay or Christian or Muslim.

Crimes are only punishable, in the Bible, for actions witnessed by two people.  People can witness acts of murder. No one can witness  an inner state of the soul.   Hatred is not a crime in the Bible. Adultery is.  Murder is.  Theft is.  Even breaking the Sabbath is.  But not hatred.

America is full of people that hate. Listen to ex-President Obama; it is certain he hates a lot of Americans — White Christian Americans that believe in God, Guns, and Strong Borders. Obama engages in hate speech by slandering these Americans — he calls them “racists,” an overt expression of hatred and slander.

But that should not be a crime.

Stop Fighting History and Logic

Stop Fighting History and Logic

It isn’t natural  to mix peoples who are loyal to foreign languages, lands, bloods and gods.  It doesn’t work —  if to work means peace and harmony.  Mixing African or Asian Muslims with European progressives isn’t working in Britain, Sweden, Denmark, Germany or France.  Why do people  ignore the evidence in front of their face?

Are people dense?
Or are they brainwashed?

They are brainwashed.  To actually use one’s brain and question the mixing of peoples is to violate one of the precepts of this late pagan religion (called the ‘modern liberal order’); that precept being that “we really all can get along — and if you don’t believe it you’re just an ignorant racist.”

No one likes to be a “racist,” so they run in fear, and cower, and obey, and turn their brain off.   We really are just sheep — unthinking and fearful.

The writings of Moses and the Prophets — the Hebrew Scriptures — tell me that our Creator never intended us to be mixed and went so far as to divide mankind by language, blood, times and boundaries (Genesis 10 and Acts 17:26).  

Stop fighting history and logic.
Accept what’s already been told to you.
Stop fearing man.

Be bold. Be a rebel. Think different.
