Sin’s Concealed Threat: Pain and Violence

Sin Always Implies Violence {Pain, Anger}
Euphemism for Love-Making is Struggle

Sin’s Concealed Threat: Pain and Violence; is evident from the inception of Satan’s sin (Ez 28:16-17). Christ affirmed that sinners mimic their father, Satan, a liar and murderer from his first sin (Jn 8:44). History is the recording of organized violence on the governmental and ethnic-cultural-societal levels; i.e., mechanisms of Control. Therefore, Control seeks to woo its adherents to their fate via Lust of Eye, Lust of the Flesh and Pride of Life {Carrots}; however, force {Stick} is always available should people refuse Control (1Jo 2:15-16; Ja 4:1-4). Expecting peace from sinners is the very essence of insanity for the peace of God is beyond their understanding; and ours if we be honest (Ro 5:6-11; Ph 4:5-7).

Controlling Fear: Cain and Abel becomes a study once the myth, wild conjectures and Kabbalah mysticism of gnosticism is stripped away. Genesis first eleven chapters are extremely condensed in its explaination Abram’s, and the Jews’, origins. Some Jewish sources have Satan raping Eve to explain Cain’s evilness.

Evangelical Christians are taught that this is an example of God rejecting works by accepting the proper sacrifice; a view that has little basis in this narrative. I believe this narrative shows the true struggle and character of the brothers to highlight the why of Cain’s murder of Abel: Struggle of Control (Ge 4:1-22).

Understanding True Jewry – Joseph’s Coat of Authority

Joseph's Bloody Coat

Jacob Shown Joseph’s Coat
Dipped in Blood – Death (Ge 37)

Nothing is more misunderstood in the Bible than Joseph’s coat. The Greek translation of Genesis has several glaring mistranslations which survived in the various English translations made from the Septuagint. These have become “tradition” and converted into stories, movies, and plays all with the same erroneous theme: Continue reading “Understanding True Jewry – Joseph’s Coat of Authority”
