Shabbat Sabbath

These days, you can’t turn on the TV or walk into a bookstore without seeing vampires everywhere. Vampires have become more popular than ever now, thanks to recent movies and books. It can be argued that the current trend, or rather, obsession, started with the highly popular books and movies in the Twilight series. And what’s very disturbing is that this interest and obsession is especially strong in young women.

Despite widespread popular belief in the paranormal in the twenty-first century, skeptics still abound in academic and scientific circles. Conventional thinking insists that every cause has an effect and especially, one which we can explain without recourse to the supernatural or the miraculous.

In part one of this chapter, the history of U.S. Government involvement in the paranormal begins in the 1940s, not the 1970s. “The first experiments in the paranormal were authorized by the CIA in 1950, codenamed BLUEBIRD, later renamed ARTICHOKE and then, in 1953, MKULTRA. The US Navy had a similar research program, Project CHATTER (beginning in 1947), which pooled its resources with the CIA projects, and the US Army had its own version called Project OFTEN, which ran between 1968 and 1973.” Other project names float around too, such as Project GRILL FLAME which was an umbrella term for anything psychic.

The entire purpose of the Bible is to record the account of the making and keeping of certain promises which Yahweh God had made to one man whom He chose out of all other men for which to execute His will and to display His being and sovereignty. That plan has not changed, and that same God has often asserted that He does not change. In spite of anything which they themselves had done, the twelve tribes of Israel, as they are reckoned by the apostles and by Christ Himself, were considered worthy of receiving those promises and they are still the focus of the purpose of the will of God, which is the primary subject of Paul’s epistle to the Ephesians. Only by completely ignoring the language of Paul here in the first chapter of this epistle can one imagine that the Old Testament and the New are somehow disconnected from one another, and that somehow God has chosen a different people. But if Paul’s words are observed, one can only come to the conclusion that the people of the promises in Christ are the same people of the promises in Moses, and indeed they are. Here once again we shall see that Paul of Tarsus had taught Christian Identity.

The English Word “Church” is the Wrong Translation for the Meeting of Believers in the New Testament
Before I get into the reasons why the true disciples of Jesus Christ need to leave the Christian Churches, it is first important to understand that the English word “church” is the wrong word to translate the original word in the Greek text of the New Testament, which is ekklesia. The Greek word ekklesia means “assembly,” or “congregation.”

The English word “church,” if you study its etymology (history of use) comes originally from the Greek word “kurios” which means “Lord.”

It is an improper word to use in translation of “ekklesia.” In the Roman world of New Testament times, ekklesia was used for general assemblies, including secular or legal assemblies, and not necessarily just religious assemblies.

Barbra Streisand loved her dog Samantha, aka Sammy. The white and fluffy purebred Coton of Tulear was even present on the steps of the Elysée Palace, the French President’s official residence, when Streisand received the Legion of Honor in 2007. As the singer and actress explained inThe New York Times in 2018, she loved Sammy so much that, unable to bring herself to see her pass away, she had the dog cloned by a Texas firm for the modest sum of 50,000 dollars just before she died in 2017, at the age of 14. And that’s how Barbra Streisand became the happy owner of Miss Violet and Miss Scarlet, two puppies who are the spitting image of the deceased Samantha. This proves that DNA — ours as well as that of Sammy — has everything it takes to restore lost youth. This is a property that could be used to “reverse” aging without having to go through the problematic stage of cloning. The idea rests on identifying the “reset” button of the organism.

On Thursday night, 600 Jewish men from the tribe of Levi held a rehearsal on the steps leading up to the Temple Mount to prepare to play their role in providing the musical accompaniment for the Third Temple service.

The third Jewish temple has been in the planning stage for three decades. The Temple Institute in Jerusalem has completed all its furnishings with the exception of the Ark of the Covenant for which they claim to know the location of the original one. The institute is currently training Levites to serve as priests in the future temple. On its Facebook page, the Temple Institute just announced a major development in its quest to find the perfect red heifer necessary for the cleansing sacrifice of the next temple. Judging from the live video that I am watching as I write, it appears that five red heifers vying for perfection have arrived in Israel amid much excitement. We live in amazing times! The government of Israel is also preparing for the completion of the third temple.

The Temple Institute and Boneh Israel made a huge step towards reinstating the Temple service on Thursday when five red heifers landed at Ben Gurion International Airport. The red heifer was the main component in the Biblically mandated process of ritual purification for impurity that results from proximity or contact with a dead body.  Because the elements needed for this ceremony have been lacking since the destruction of the Second Temple, all Jews today are considered ritually impure, thereby preventing the return of the Temple service. The Temple Institute launched its  Red Heifer program about a decade ago, led by Rabbi Azariah Ariel.
