At the end of day six Yah looked back at His creation and called it ‘Tov Me’od’ which is translated into English as ‘very good’ but that is an inadequate translation, for his creation was ‘perfect and completely fit for the purpose’, and like Yah himself, is unchanging and timeless.
Adam ( that is, all humanity) too was ‘perfect and completely fit for the purpose’, and nothing there has changed either, for he was made in the image and likeness of Yah himself..
Most Christians flee the ‘occult’ as something most evil, but it is something that Yah created and his Tanack (bible) is full of it. To live a truly spiritual life we must get to grips with the ‘occult’.
Yah created, and inhabits the realm of the Spiritual, he populated it with Adam, formed in his own image and likeness, and latterly by the woman (who came to be known as ‘lifegiver’ (Chavah). When Adam ate the forbidden fruit he created a new realm, a realm based upon his knowledge as it was at the time, it was a realm within a realm, it was a bubble of physicality inside Yah’s realm of spirituality.
What was ‘new’ in Adam’s realm was the concept of ‘death’ which was to enslave mankind’s existence in this physical realm for all the subsequent generations.
Death is separation from Yah, it is the degeneration of the structured dust which is mankind’s ‘physical’ component. In this physical realm, man is chained by his physical senses, he can see no further than his physical sight, he can touch nothing, hear nothing outside of his physical senses. There are however times when the senses detect the spiritual realm as well as the physical realm, this is particularly so when interacting with babies and children and with animals.
The Torah of Yah defines the Creator’s way, the healing and beneficial environment which all of His Creation, including mankind can prosper and be at ease.
Adam however creates his own torah, according to his own opinion, and this is not the healing and beneficial way. Adam lacks the wisdom to create a healing and beneficial environment, he can only create a bizarre imitation of what Yah intended.
That bizarre imitation is a talmud, an inflated replica of Yah’s Torah which is made to satisfy man’s fallen nature, his godship of ‘good’ and ‘evil’.
Yah’s people are supposed to be humble (‘small’ in the Hebrew). They are supposed to be looking for Yah’s truths, not their own opinions, when mankind starts to seek and worship his own opinions then the ball and chain of religion comes upon us.
Yahushua tells us to beware the leaven of the Pharisees;
Have you ever wondered how Yahovah thinks? It is an interesting exercise, imagine you have just created a complex device, say a car, and you are pleased with it, it works well, and it does everything you ask of it. You are happy.
But then the command system computer starts playing up, instead of listening to you, it listens to another voice and starts changing your creation. What do you do.
Well, first you isolate it, you put it in a place where it will not do too much damage. Then you set about fixing it.
That car is me, I am Yahovah’s creation, but I too have been listening to the wrong voice, thinking it was Yah. What can I do?
The first thing to do to repair any car is to read the manual, if only to find out who is qualified to do repairs. Which is the best manual? It is usually the one provided by the creator.
If we are to take seriously the life and works of Yahushua (the so called ‘Jesus of Nazareth’) then we need to seriously look at what the scriptures say as opposed to what Christian doctrine says.
Christian doctrine tells us the ‘Christ’ died for our sins on a Roman pagan ‘cross’ and took the ‘punishment’ for our wrongdoing once and for all time.
Sin is defined in the scriptures as the transgression of the law (the Torah) but Christian doctrine tells us that the Torah was “nailed to the cross”.
At Easter (Ishtar) time Christians celebrate the gory execution of Jesus on his Roman Pagan cross, however the scriptures tell us of the execution of Yahushua on an upright pole at Passover, is this different?.
Adam was made in the image of Yah in effect he was a clone of Yahovah, and when he ate of the forbidden fruit, it poisoned him such that his linkage to Yahovah, and to Yah’s knowledge of Good and Evil was severed.
Adam became a ‘mind’ centred being, the poisonous fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil severed the connection between Adam’s Heart and Adam’s mind so that Adam’s senses were now connected to his mind ONLY.
This not only isolated Adam from Yah, it also isolated Adam from all of Yah’s creation, including the Woman and the Serpent. He was now in a completely physical bubble centred on his own intellect.
In effect, he had created his own world within his own intellect and governed by his own torah (instruction manual).
When Yahovah created all things, including mankind, He did it by His word, He spoke his creation into existence. He spoke trees into existence, He spoke stars into existence, all things He spoke into existence. The words He used to speak these things into existence we call Torah, and Torah is the blueprint of Yah’s creation.
Strictly speaking, the blueprint describes the design drawings of a project and the way that they used to be reproduced by the elementary copying machines available before the modern photocopying machines. But design documentation, known as the blueprint (they were literally blue prints), was not only the drawing, it was the whole design and included the descriptions of the materials used and how they fitted together, how they were to be manufactured (casting, forging etc.) and how the parts were to be heat treated or other like processes.
Torah thus describes Yah’s creation, and the part of it relevant to mankind was given to Moses at Mount Horeb, to be written down and to become a guideline of how mankind should live in order to live in harmony with Yah and his Creation.
In the Garden of Eden, Adam and the Woman consumed a poison, a poison uniquely potent to those created in the image of Yahovah.
Yahovah created all things, He spoke and it happened, the two trees that were part of the creative process were in position, one represented Knowledge, the other represented life. Then Yahovah made the ultimate creative act, he spoke mankind into life and endowed him with the potential for knowledge, mankind was as Yahovah, the pinnacle of the creation.
All that Yahovah spoke to create all things, we call TORAH. The five books of Moses are those parts of TORAH relevant to mankind. Works of man are NOT part of TORAH.
Thus the two trees transmitted to Adam the very essence of existences , those of life and those of knowledge.
When Adam ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil he became a split personality. His life became a question of balance, or rather imbalance. All the things he did were tempered by the idea of good, and the idea of evil. But in Yah’s eyes, both were wrong because both were the products of disobedience.
So all actions of Adam became subject to a curse of balance, and each action in Adam’s life had an equal and opposite reaction in Adam’s death. Not only that, but other peoples actions could affect the abundance or dearth in Adam’s life, pushing him further towards life or death.
Also, each action of Adam’s has an effect on the balance of Adam’s life, moving him closer to death, or closer to abundant life. But given the perversity of Adam’s knowledge under which this system was invented, so each positive movement (by Adam) results in an equal and opposite negative movement so retaining the balance.
However, balance of life can be affected also by actions which have their origin in the Kingdom of Yahovah. These actions do not have a counterbalance effect, they just move the point of balance, either towards death or away from it.
Keeping TORAH means that we are living according to Yah’s standards of Good and Evil, not according to our own standards of good and evil (or those of other men who regard themselves arbiters of our relationship with Yah). Actions in accordance with TORAH are positive and life enhancing, they do not have any adverse counter balance actions.
We approach death when the death side of the balance gets so heavy that it wipes out the life force. At this point physical life ends. At this point we are once more subject to Yah and his spiritual scales of justice. If we have kept TORAH then we will have built up a positive spiritual balance, but if we have rejected TORAH then we will not be recognized at all, we will have no positive spiritual assets. However, if we have amassed negative spiritual assets by working with other gods then we will share the fate of those gods.
