Hello.
I have been a bi-vocational evangelist-pastor and Engineer. I started as a Naval Archtect-Marine Engineer and am now working on an exoskeleton robot as a support engineer. I have over 20,000 hours of original research in ancient Hebrew (it's been remade a few times) and restored notarikon (it was twisted with the language).
I was led here by the Stolen History videos. Wow. A light switch was flipped.
If I was a member of the old forum it was incidental and I don't remember. I don't recall ever seeing it.
There are things that 'just aren't right' in modern Christianity.
1. The Holy Grail of preaching is the sermon on the road to Emaus. Does it make sense that we wouldn't have preserved that, especially since we are commanded to teach those who can teach? Stolen history red flag?
2. The great embarrassment is that theologians must reluctantly confess that they cannot read the Old Testament the way Jesus and the New Testament authors did. There are passages that they just cannot twist into a literal-historical context. Seminary Hermeneutics 101 will introduce 'sensus plenior' as the meaning God intended, but the human author was unaware of. Then they will explain 5 or more positions from 'it doesn't exist' to 'if it exists we are not allowed to read it because we aren't apostles". Stolen history red flag?
3. The camel's nose; the thing the church has been unable to purge, is the idea that Jesus had a secret teaching. Lots of people invented nonsense to fill the gap; but the church has been unable to rid itself of the idea. Possible Stolen history flag?
4. In seminary "Introduction to the Bible", students are subtly taught that they can't trust it because of the "Synoptic problem". And thousands of papers have been written about it. Matthew, Mark and Luke treat the same event in different ways. This should trouble us if we claim it to be inerrant. Sowing doubt on truth seems to be another red flag.
5. The result of the loss of these things results in central control of religion. Those who don't buy into the central control are in a perpetual Greek debate, with no foundation in truth, by Reformers, constantly creating theological chaos to the point that the average Christian no longer cares. If they do care, they just pick a team as in sports and run with it. A Stolen history flag?
I believe I have stumbled across how to restore it. But y'all will be the judge.
The five things above are really caused by the loss of one thing. Notarikon. Why did the early church burn the writings of heretics? Those who understood the symbols of the Bible were purged. Christian Jews were purged from the church by 400 so thoroughly that when Jerome wanted to learn Hebrew, he had to go to disbelieving Jews.
Augustine declared the the Greek Septuagint was more reliable than the Hebrew original texts. Is this, the rewriting of history, a stolen history red flag?
Around 600 AD the Jews added vowels to the text. Why? They aren't used today in modern newspapers. They did it to obfuscate Christ in the scriptures. The word 'amar' means 'said, word' AND 'lamb'. The word itself tells us that the Lamb of God is the Word of God. But it is now hidden with the added vowels to separate it into two words.
The word 'mammon', we are told means money. It does in Syriac. Why would they choose a Syriac word when mammon in Hebrew means 'the believing ones'. You cannot serve God and self. Why would they trivialize it in such a way?
The word 'agape' we are told, is some sort of super Greek love. Agape in Hebrew means 'the combatants'. It is loving your enemy with no expectation of return. It is God's love that while we were yet sinners, and enemies of God, Christ died for us. Changing it allows them to portray God as always angry and wanting to squish us. He loved us even though we were enemies, how much more does he love us when we are not? Why then all the guilt... in Christ there is no condemnation.
These are intentional a purposeful changes. Let me introduce a restored Notarikon.
In Hebrew, words get their meaning from the combined meaning of the letters within.
Adam came from the ground 'adamah' and has blood 'dam' and spirit 'ah'. The blood 'dam' is the commandment 'd' finished by the son 'm'.
The first word of the Bible is bereshit בראשית. Let's do the same:
- בראשית: Created ברא six שית
- ב-ראשית : in ב – the beginning ראשית
- ב-ראש-י-ת : in ב - the authority of (heads of) ראש - the creator י – (makes it an object) ת
- בר(אש)ית : a covenant ברית with man אש at the center
- בר-אשי-ת : the son בר – offered total devotion (fire offerings) אשי – (makes it an object) ת
- ב-ר-א-ש-י-ת - a revelation to man ב it is revealed ר that God spoke and created the heavens and the earth א his word did not return void ש his plan for creation י was finished ת
- ב(ראשי)ת The daughter בת has her head ראשי in her heart (by position). A riddle that the daughter of God loves God (her head).
Elohim means 'God separated from man by ignorance'
Israel means 'Man joined to God by revelation'
You are Israel if you know him.
Since letters have meaning, if we read the Alphabet in order:
God spoke and created the heavens and the earth. He revealed to man .. that he pursued them with a .. command .. which they did not understand .. and it distinguished them .. as the bride... When they understood .. through the marriage .. they became a new creation. The Son of God .. taught .. the promise of the Father. .. The Son of Man .. fulfilled the promise ... by becoming flesh. .. He spoke in parables and riddles. .. He exchanged his righteousness for our sin. .. The Son of God died and rose again .. revealing .. that his word returns with an increase. His completed work is your new life. The Son of God died ... and finished his declared works. .. The Son of Man died and was restored to glory. .. All prophecy was completed. .. Judgement was ended. .. We became co-heirs with Christ
I am hoping to find a skeptical but open-to-be-convinced audience here.
