As deserts are produced by man so too is human desolation,
misery, despair, poverty, anguish, hate, frustration, greed, war, terror
and fear.
Absolute meaning and the value of truth over fiction
are almost meaningless in the artificial world of man as competition,
commerce, festivities and entertainment provoke worship of violence and
terror. This behaviour pattern began with sun worship and are the fruit
of its spores
Recorded
evidence shows ancient beliefs of an afterlife and rites for achieving
are derived from sun worship. This happened at the expense of the
environment, women and truth.
The
following exposé is a short summary of the development of terror
starting with male dreams of eternal life. Evidence taken from history,
language and ethnographies is irrefutable.
Terror
is primarily male orientated. Circumcision, maiming, torture, self harm,
genocide, suicide, war and the like is terror and violence. Uniformed
men with arms, intent on killing, invoke fear and exercise display with
intent.
Idolatry of statues, icons, symbols and such destroys the spirit within. This too is terror.
"When you cry, let your company
deliver you; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take
them: but he that puts his trust in me shall possess the land and inherit
my holy mountain." Isaiah 57:13
War
cries, war dances, war marchers exhibit a show of force. Headgear, war
paint,
decorated bodies and social hierarchy follow the theme. This derives from
religion born of sun worship and is evident in every culture.
Religion serves male dreams of power and it gives men control
over women and the environment.
Modern
armies display strength in Armory that includes tanks, weapons, ships
and planes shown as deterrents. Men marching as a group display unity,
which is a deterrent so others will submit. The greater such force the
better the defence.
Displays
of this nature follow ancient practices.
Massive
stones purposefully erected in antiquity had the same effect. They show
immensity of the gods whose power supposedly protected the people. If
you wandered onto this turf "look out".
Tribes
repelled by shows of such force faced barriers built by the imagination,
superstition and teaching that accompanied it. Hugh monoliths, some as
single identities and others as part of immense constructions, remain
as a reminder of the force they represented. The statues at Easter Island
are such a show.
While
these stones served one purpose other stones served other purposes.
Stones
were bound in superstition and power as gods, and still are. Carved into
specific shapes they still represent divine beings. This is why God is
described as a 'rock' in the Bible.
Societies
that had their 'gods' stolen often faded into decline and possibly extinction.
Parading
carved stones, dragons and icons is common in Europe, Asia and the America's.
Candles accompany them as the spirit light or sun while fireworks repel
evil spirits.
To
whom will you liken me and make me equal, and compare me that we may be
like?
They
lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire
a goldsmith; and he makes it a god: they fall down, yes, they worship.
They
bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place,
and he stands; from his place shall he not remove: yes, one shall cry
unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.
Remember
this, and show yourselves as men: bring it again to mind, O you
transgressors."
Isaiah 46:5ff
Gods
are, therefore, weapons of war and their strength is used as a killing
power. Their force is the army that follows them. War gods today are guns,
bombs, tanks, planes, ships and so on.
In
societies where stones were not used in this way other forces were. The
Australian aborigines, for example, point the bone. This superstition
causes death. Voodoo has similar practices.
Terrorism and violence is everywhere. It is in most
homes because people do not know that the things they worship, practice
and teach link to violence, murder or torture.
They do not know how the Spirit is angered by their
idolatry. The following are religious practices that fly in the face of
spirituality.
He that kills an ox is as
if he slew a man; he that sacrifices a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's
neck; he that offered an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he
that burned incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yes, they have chosen their
own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
I also will choose their delusions,
and I will bring their fear upon them; because when I called, no one
answered, when I spoke they did not hear: but they did evil before my
eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not." Isaiah 66:3,4
As the sun sets
on life on earth we cannot escape our
follies and we have been judged accordingly.
The House of Israel is the vineyard
of God from which
comes the Spirit of eternal life. To protect and nurture it God blinded
and deafened the spiritual so they could not see or hear God.
"For God has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the sear hath (God) covered. And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed” Isaiah 29:10,11
They were
led through the valley of death many times over and each time they queried
why?
"And it shall
come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped
of the house of Jacob, shall no more stay upon him that smote them; bur
shall stay upon the Spirit, the God of Israel, in truth." Isaiah 10:20
Dictators who terrorise and buried the truth in their
lies are rocks in the garden of God holding together the soil and allowing
the plants to flourish. Those who promote the lies are the manure that
fed the plants to make them flourish further. These things were destined
to go when the vines that bear the fruit are ready to harvest.
Terrorism stems from men who believe their principals
and actions are right. They are tools of the Spirit who have helped find
the spiritual among the dead of the earth, who have no spirit.
"The remnant
shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.
For though thy people Israel
be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant shall return: the consumption
decreed shall overflow with righteousness." Isaiah 10:21,22
The consumption is here now and the
righteous children of Israel are being poured upon with Spirit power, and they know who
they are.
