OUR GENERATION & the ISRAELITES AT MT. SINAI

OUR GENERATION & the ISRAELITES AT MT. SINAI

There is a similarity and bond between our generation of people and those Israelites of the Exodus who stood at the base of Mt. Sinai and heard the message of God delivered to the masses.

The Hebrew Bible (Torah, Old Testament) was written with the understanding that the future generations of people could identify with the messages and lessons being taught at the time of the Exodus as they were meant for all of us and for all time. Some messages were addressed for the generations shortly following the Exodus, some were addressing future problems that would take us into the present time, and the message proving God through the creation story was presented esoterically as the details were above the heads of the generations that followed.

The Bible was able to be understood better by the generations that was closest to the Exodus period when we learn that in Genesis 2 that the river that watered the Garden of Eden divided into four rivers and each went to a different land. We know today that 3 of those lands, Havilah, Cush, and Ashur were not yet places on the map.

The message that addressed future problems was presented in King David purchasing the Temple Mount. This is included in the Bible because God foresaw the time would come when in spite of the fact that He assigned the land of Israel to the Hebrew (Jewish) people, there would be a challenge to Jewish ownership rights by the nations of the world. So although King David conquered all of Jerusalem and he now controlled the land promised the Israelites by God, David still formally purchased the Temple Mount which even then became recognized as sovereign ownership of the land.

So then what makes our generation so special that it is as we too were standing at Sinai and receiving revelations from God?

Today we have broken all the esoteric impediments of proving God did in fact create the heavens and the earth. Our present day generation is the first, the very first, to fully understand the Biblical story of creation and have full knowledge of how the world was created and we know the Bible is correct because each and very verse of the creation story is now supported by the teachings of modern science.

Those details and more are provided in the book “WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM” and it addresses the issues of the dinosaurs to the fact the 6 days of cosmic time is the equivalent of the billions of years of Earth-time as measured by the same clock. (see website www.landpublishing.com)

Those Bible findings can be challenged only if a person can answer this question:

How could it have been humanly possible for Moses, 3500 years ago, to have

known of every basic detail of the creation story, and in their exact

chronological order, when modern science is only now within the last 75 years

figuring it out?

Please tell your friends and family about it.

                               BIBLE CHALLENGES PEOPLE AVOID FACING-until now

To appreciate the Bible we must first fully understand it, as even the smallest academic challenges needs to be resolved.  Some miscellaneous items are enclosed for your consideration:

                              ---------------------------------------------------------------

                                          the rain issue

In Genesis 2:5, one of the facts God is telling us about is that there had never been any rain throughout the beginning period of time. The Bible is perfect and that was an accurate statement which is 100% correct. Science, on the other hand says, “What’s wrong with you people? There was rain, there had to be rain or nothing could have grown and survive.” Science is also 100% correct.

 

Now the question becomes, how could both opposite versions of the rain issue be correct?

                                             --------------------------------------------

 

                          President Obama & the Garden of Eden Lesson issue

Leaders, just like ordinary people, err and when there are consequences they turn to God and attempt to explain their predicament, express their sorrow, and seek redemption.

 

Adam in the Garden of Eden had his moment and attempted to explain his failure as did great leaders like King Saul and King David in their time. Adam was not forgiven, King Saul was not forgiven, but King David was forgiven.

 

What was the lesson taught in the Eden story that explains why King David was forgiven and the others were not?

 

What if Barak Obama, president of the United States, was to seek redemption and explain his predicament as per the previous explanations to Americans for his unfilled promises, would his contrition meet the standards taught at Eden or would he be denied?

 

                                           Age of the Earth Question: a Problem for Politicians

 Another ‘what if’ is the media reporting men like Senator Marco Rubio (Republican-Florida) and Governor Chris Christie (Republican-New Jersey) are fearful of addressing the question posed to them about the age of the Earth because it seems they are fearful of antagonizing voters who might hold different opinions.

 

Our book does not discuss any of those politicians but we have proved the Bible is in sync with the teachings of modern science, 6 days of cosmic time is the equivalent of billions of years of Earth-time and the age of the Earth and time of the different events of creation are detailed.

                                                ----------------------------------------

                           Why Are Muslims Battling To Destroy Israel?

 

One chapter of the book addresses that issue. It is puzzling because the Koran, the Bible of the Muslims, says the Children of Israel are to have control of the ‘Promised Land’ and the Koran goes further to say the Jews are to live there in peace!

                                    ----------------------------------------------

 

   The book ‘WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM’ addresses all the questions posed here and of course much more (see website www.landpublishing.com).

 

The book, a perfect gift for yourself, friends and family, can be ordered through the website or from Barnes and Noble which also has it in e- book format.

                          THE BIBLE QUESTIONS YOU MUST DARE TO THINK ABOUT

The book “WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM” (see website www.landpublishing.com) provides the literal proof that each and every verse of the Biblical story of creation is in sync with the teachings of modern science.

THE QUESTION  that we must address is how could it have been humanly possible for Moses 3500 years ago to have known of every basic detail of the creation story, and in their exact chronological order, when modern science has only been able to start figuring it out within the last 75 years? Would he not have had to be told?

                                   ------------------------------------------------------------

   

                         Some of the miscellaneous issues the book addresses in its many chapters:

 

         Most Bibles translate the 6^th Commandment in Exodus 20 as ‘thou shall not kill. The original Hebrew scrolls of Moses is properly translated as ‘thou shalt not murder.’

 

         Murder, by old and modern definition, is the illegal taking of life. Killing, on the other hand, may be legal (and even morally justified) in situations as self-defense, etc.

 

        As the New Testament was originally written in Koine Greek (ancient Greek language) from a book called the Septuagint the word ‘kill’ was chosen in the translation of the 6^th Commandment as there was no Koine Greek word to distinguish between killing and murder.

 

THE QUESTION then is there a present day attempt to explore the meaning of the words used by the Israelites in the period of the Exodus and get to the original understanding of the Bible?

 

If you do not believe so then why did the Thomas Nelson publishers of the NKJV (New King James Version of the Bible) change its translation of Exodus 20:13 “You shall not kill” to “You shall not murder”?

                                         -------------------------------------

 

            People scoff at the Bible because it says the world was created in 6 twenty four hour days and modern science says the Earth was created in 4.5 billion years.

 

THE QUESTION then is, have you given it some thought and feel that yes, there is conflict between Bible and science?

 

If so then why do the leading physicists of the world agree with the findings of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity in which he proved that gravity and motion affect the intervals of time and space.  It is already known that 6 days of cosmic time, due to differences of gravity pull throughout the universe, is the equivalent of 4.5 billions of years as measured by the same clock on Earth.

                                               ----------------------------------------------------

         If you agree with and cherish the artistic design of the Ten Commandments incased in two round-topped stones as an inspiring religious symbol then answer the following questions:

 

THE QUESTION is why did English artists in the 11^th century introduce that design which was tombstones to show ‘the laws of the Jews were dead’? Considering that the Bible describes the tablets of the commandments as rectangular, should the present used art design be thrown out and redone?

 

                                                        ----------------------------

 

If you believe dinosaurs were not mentioned in the Bible under any name, then answer the following question:

 

THE QUESTION is who were the creatures mentioned in Genesis 1:21 that we know now that birds were evolved from their winged species?   

                                           --------------------------------------------

 

If you believe that the Bible was written only for the Israelites of the Exodus period and does not apply to people today who need not understand it, then please address this question:

 

THE QUESTION is when the four rivers flowed from the main river out of the Garden of Eden to different countries why were the some of those countries not yet on the map and why only people of later generations could identify with them?

                                           --------------------------------------------------------

 

The different chapters of the book addresses issues such as are we descended from the apes, did the snake in the Garden of Eden actually speak, did Adam and Eve dress in fig leaves (you will learn that dressing in leaves was a colloquial expression for offering a poor excuse), are women really responsible for the sins of mankind, and much more as the surreal of how God is addressing the present day generations.

 

The answers to these questions will affect the lives of most people as they will be forced to think and reevaluate their attitudes towards the Bible. Thomas Jefferson had said that the problem with organized religion is that it calls for blind faith and what the people really need is a rationale for belief.

 

So ask yourself, does such a work as the research provided from this book offer that rationale? How did you answer the questions that were posed? How will the facts of the Bible made understandable and in sync with science affect your life, the life of your friends and family? Please ask them.

Artistic Design for the Ten Commandments-a-Deprecation of Judaism

Would you believe that the standard artistic format of the Ten Commandments encased in two round-topped stones originally had an anti-Semitic purpose? The stones were designed to represent tombstones and send the message that the laws of the Jews were dead.

That art form was the original creation of British artists in the 11th century. Then in the 13th century when Jews throughout Europe were ordered by the pope at Rome to wear insignia on their clothing to indicate they were Jews that could now be attacked and harassed by the populace of the different countries, in England, King Henry III had the Jews wear an 'identifying badge' in the shape of those two hinged tombstones as that art form was known to the British for what it was intended to represent.

By the 15th century, the history of the purpose of that art form was forgotten and it became accepted as religious art by both Jews and Christians.

Details of that history are presented in chapter 11 of the book 'WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM'.

ADAM & EVE DRESSED IN A FIG LEAF

What has been believed to be going from literally naked to clothes of a fig leaf meant that the colloquial and Biblical metaphors of the Torah (Bible) were never really fully applied.

The Sages explained that 6000 years ago (the time the Bible tells us Adam and Eve came onto the world stage) people did not walk around naked. Naked in the Genesis story referred to being devoid of the necessary character and mindset to obey God.

Adam was not the first man ever created (people from the cave man to Homo sapiens [our species] had been developing since the dinosaurs had become extinct) but he was the first man to know God.

No man ever made clothing of leaves which would have dried up in one day and fallen apart even when fresh. We know now that 'clothes of leaves' was an ancient Hebrew colloquial expression for 'offering a poor excuse.' The poor excuse offered by Adam and Eve in their penitence was the blaming of others and not accepting full responsibility for their actions. This is fully explained in the book "WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM."

Adam and Eve both used the same excuse and therefore the word for 'leaf' in the original scrolls of Moses was in the singular.

Yet today Bible translations for both Christian and Jewish books use the word 'leaves' in the plural.

WHY?

There has to be a logical explanation and the same ones we received from learned Biblical scholars was that the placement of the vowels under the Hebrew letters of the word for leaf and other grammatical considerations required the Hebrew word 'leaf' to be translated and understood to be in the plural.

But there is one problem with that rationale and that is the Hebrew grammatical system and placement of vowels to determine the pronunciation of the words were not developed and made part of the Hebrew grammar until more than 1000 years after Moses and the Israelites of the period of the Exodus. Moses never heard of Hebrew vowels as we see them in modern Hebrew reprinting of the Bible so that when he recorded the word 'leaf' in the singular, he meant one single poor excuse that both Adam and Eve used to explain why they ate of the forbidden fruit.

6 days vs 4.5 billion years of creation

The biggest stumbling block for proving sync between science and the biblical story of creation is the question of the time it took for the creation process. The Bible says six days and science says four and a half billion years. As people became more educated the six day claim made the Bible appear a work of fiction and belief in that six day number became limited to those with blind faith

Between the years 1950 and 1955 scientists developed the big bang theory which stated that the universe began with an explosion of a dense amount of matter and that our universe is still continuing to expand as a result of that explosion. Most scientists calculate that it took place 13.73 billion years ago.

Our knowledge and understanding of that history begins in the early part of the 20th century when Albert Einstein proved that light rays from distant stars were deflected by the gravity of the Sun. His theory, called 'the theory of general relativity' proved that gravity and motion can affect the intervals of time and space. Einstein proved that gravity makes time run more slowly in places where the forces of gravity are different as there are changes in the flow of time. We also know now, and for the first time although it is mind boggling, that the entity called 'time' has not been around forever and that it was created along with the rest of the universe in the big bang theory.

Because changes in gravity and velocity affect the rate at which our time flows, measurement of time is not the same in all places, i.e. on Earth and on the Moon, or in other planets using the same clock. It is therefore amazing for us, in this period of existence, to finally learn that six 24 hour days in outer space (solar time) would be the equivalent of approximately 13.73 billion years as measured in Earth-time with the same clock, as one minute of cosmic time is the equivalent of a million million minutes of the same clock on Earth.

Our galaxy the Milky Way, had a star develop which we call the Sun, 4.5 billion years ago and our planet, Earth, developed with other planets of our galaxy around that time

And so science, which was once the old adversary of the Bible, now is the proof that the Bible is correct in stating that the world was formed in 6 days as measured by cosmic time which is the equivalent of the billions of years we measure in Earth-time.

This resolving of the time issues is the ultimate proof that the Bible and science are in sync and this means that only a Supreme Power could have given the Bible to Moses.

No one could question if there is a God!

LAND PURCHASES BY ABRAHAM, JACOB, KING DAVID

LAND PURCHASES MADE BY ABRAHAM, JACOB, and KING DAVID

The Bible highlights the three purchases of land made in Israel that were made by Abraham, Jacob, and King David.

It was foreseen that the time would come when there would be a challenge to Jewish ownership rights in Israel by the nations of the world. Therefore even though God promised Abraham the land would belong to the Jews, a point was made to show the world there were actual purchases of those sections that would later be contentious.

1- Abraham paid for the land in Hebron that would be a burial place for Sarah and himself. Abraham used what was then considered international currency (type of money acceptable anywhere) to symbolically establish a new sovereignty and reality for the status of the land.

2- Jacob paid for land in Shechem to build an altar to God. He used what was then considered international currency making it a sovereign acquisition thus symbolically also establishing a new sovereignty and reality for that parcel of land.

3- King David’s purchase of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem was also done in a manner that made it considered a sovereign ownership of the land.


Today many people who do not believe in the Bible say there is no proof that God even exists and created the world.

Well, the proof is here today in our book ‘WHY HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT NEED BLIND FAITH TO BELIEVE IN CREATIONISM.’ The sync with the story of creation and science is that proof and we hope that you readers of these blogs would not only want to purchase that book but make it a point to tell your family and friends about it and they should pass the message on in a similar manner.
