God's Love Story Chapter 4 

Christ the Messiah 

The Redemptive Ministry of Jesus 

Genesis 1and 2

The healing and preaching ministry of Jesus lasted for 3 1/2 years which was necessary in order to redeem the  original sin of Genesis 3:12. 

We know from reading about Thoth and "He of 9" that the number 9 means judgement. Jesus throughout his ministry used 3 in His redemptive acts because He was always seeking to bring everything back to Genesis 1 and 2, 12 which is His foundational number which we see throughout the Bible.  12 apostles, 12 tribes, 12 in the New Jerusalem.   9+3=12

God Is All about Redemption

Our God is one of infinite mercy and salvation. Despite centuries of Israel's rebellion, their redemption is beautifully revealed in Scripture. The names of the twelve tribes are inscribed on the gates of the New Jerusalem and the foundation stones within the Immaculate Heart of Mary. As Revelation 21:12 declares, God's mercy endures. One of the elders said, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.” (Revelation 5:5)

The emerald stone, embedded in the high priest’s breastplate, symbolized the tribe of Judah. When Lucifer was cast down, the emerald was said to fall to earth. Yet in His love, the Lord redeems humanity, coming through Judah to bring salvation, fully aware satan—the envious green serpent—would strive to separate humanity from God. Through the Emerald Tablets, satan laid the foundation for the occult, paganism, New Age movements, and the rise of Freemasonry,--his deception in full force.

But Jesus triumphed, renewing humanity through Judah’s lineage, symbolized by the green emerald. Like Ireland's Emerald Isle, where Judah’s remnants traveled with Jeremiah, this lineage carries God’s promise. Through Judah and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the Daughter of Zion, the world is called to embrace the Era of Peace and Renewal. In God’s plan, redemption and restoration are always near.

How can anyone not believe that Jesus is the Son of God?

It’s astounding to consider how one man, who lived over 2,000 years ago and walked only two continents—Africa and Asia—continues to captivate hearts, spark debates, and even face opposition today. This man, only preaching and teaching for three and a half years, accompanied by a small group of ordinary, simple followers, is now recognized in nearly every corner of the globe. No other figure in history has achieved such universal recognition or remained the focus of such profound attention. When you pause to reflect, the magnitude of his influence becomes undeniable. The only logical explanation? This is the work of Divine Intervention and He was God the Son.  In just 3 ½ years of ministry, Jesus Christ fulfilled the Father’s Will in a way that forever transformed the course of history.

Jesus fulfilled hundreds of prophecies from the Old Testament.  Here are just three examples of these remarkable prophecies. Think about this: the prophets were often humble, ordinary individuals living in difficult times, without any modern tools or technology. Yet, their predictions were astonishingly accurate—truly miraculous. Especially when you consider that, even with today’s advanced equipment, meteorologists often struggle to forecast the weather for the next day!

The Holy Spirit hovers like a cloud roughly 1500 years apart

Exodus 40:34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 35 And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

Luke1:35 And the angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you  and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. 

Comments: The terminology used in both passages refers to the "cloud" or "Holy Spirit" covering the tabernacle, described as the "dwelling place" or "portable sanctuary." Similarly, the glorious Holy Spirit filled the Virgin Mary, allowing the Divine to take human form. Unlike the tabernacle, which was a stationary structure requiring transport, the Virgin Mary became a living, moving tabernacle, carrying God in human flesh within her. Just as the wooden acacia ark housed the presence of God within the tabernacle, Mary herself bore the presence of God in her womb. 

The Messiah would be a descendant of Jesse-prophesized 700 years beforehand

Isaiah 11:1 1 A shoot will spring from the stock of Jesse, a new shoot will grow from his roots.2 On him will rest the spirit of Yahweh, the spirit of wisdom and insight, the spirit of counsel and power, the spirit of knowledge and fear of Yahweh. 3 his inspiration will lie in fearing Yahweh. His judgement will not be by appearances. His verdict not given on hearsay.4 He will judge the weak with integrity and give fair sentence for the humblest in the land. He will strike the country with the rod of his mouth and with the breath of his lips bring death to the wicked. 

Luke 3:23-32 The Genealogy of Jesus--When Jesus began his ministry he was about thirty years of age. He was the son, as was thought, of Joseph, the son of Heli, the son of Jesse ( the father of Mary, Mother Jesus),  the son of Obed,  the son of Boaz, the son of Sala, the son of Nahshon.

Comments: The writings of Isaiah are quoted in the Gospels more than those of any other Old Testament prophet. As a preacher and prophet to the smaller kingdom of Judah—with Jerusalem (Zion) as its capital—Isaiah demonstrated extraordinary faith and obedience. In an act of complete submission to God, he spent three years stripped naked and barefoot as a symbolic "sign and wonder" (Isaiah 20:2-4).

This unusual act was a warning to Judah: they were not to rely on Egypt or Ethiopia for deliverance from Assyria but to place their trust in God alone. At the time, Egypt was one of the world’s greatest empires, and it seemed unimaginable that they could fall into defeat or slavery. Yet God, through Isaiah’s striking demonstration, foretold their downfall. The prophecy was fulfilled as the Egyptians were humiliated and led away barefoot in defeat by the Assyrians—just as Isaiah had symbolically portrayed.

Similarly, the Blessed Virgin Mary exemplifies unwavering obedience to God. By a miraculous "sign and wonder," she conceived through the Holy Spirit. Along with the Holy Family, she journeyed to Egypt for three years, living among pagans to serve as a witness to the one true God and to warn against the worship of idols. Her faith and actions continue to inspire believers to trust in God’s plan, even in the face of the extraordinary and unexpected.

The Messiah would be from Nazareth.  This was  prophesized roughly 850 years before Jesus' birth

Micah 5:2 “But you, Bethlehem, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me
 one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.”

Matthew 2:1-2  After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

Comments: In the book of Micah 5:2,  Bethlehem was the smallest town in Judah and rather insignificant. King David was also born there.  (1 Samuel 16:1–4).It would be most improbable that Micah would choose that same location when clearly there were cities and empires where kings would naturally come from that would be logical. 

Isaiah 53 

Isaiah 53: This chapter vividly depicts the suffering Messiah, likened to a lamb led to slaughter, bearing our sins. For many Jews, it remains a "forbidden" text due to its striking parallels to Jesus. Even a Roman centurion at the crucifixion declared (Mt 27:54) Jesus as the Son of God. How is it that Israel still struggles to recognize Jesus, one of their own, as the Messiah? This passage foretells the Messiah's first coming as prophesied in the Old Testament.

In contrast, prophets describe the Messiah’s return as a triumphant Lord waging war against ungodly nations. Zechariah 9:9-10 prophesies the Messiah’s humble arrival on a donkey (fulfilled in Mt 21:1-11), while Zechariah 14 depicts Him as a warrior opposing nations against Israel. These dual roles—suffering servant and conquering king—are key to understanding His mission.

The Messiah was destined to come twice: first, to atone for humanity's sins through His death, and second, to gather His followers and save Israel and the world during or after the Great Tribulation. Without understanding these two comings, one risks misunderstanding God’s plan and may fall for a false messiah, the Antichrist.

Scripture foretold Jesus’ first coming in detail—His birthplace, life, miracles, and final words on the cross (Psalm 22). His mission was to save us from eternal death through His sacrifice, paying the penalty we deserved, and to teach love, even for enemies. This is THE NEW COVENANT: a spiritual covenant open to all nations through repentance and faith. It calls for love and service, even toward those who oppose us.

Hebrews 9:24-28 declares: “For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in God’s presence on our behalf. He has appeared once for all to put away sin by His sacrifice. Just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, Christ, having been offered once to bear sins, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those eagerly waiting for Him.”

Rabbi Kaduri

Reveals Name of the Messiah   Monday, April 30, 2007

Yitzhak Kaduri (born 07.09.1898 in Baghdad as Yitzchak Diba; died 28.01.2006 [29 Tevet 5766] in Jerusalem) was an orthodox rabbi in Israel. He studied the Torah, the Talmud and the Kabbalah (oral tradition of Jewish teachings). He was very intelligent and learned many texts by heart. Thousands of people visited him to seek advice, consecrate amulets or ask for blessings and healing of various diseases. His disciples even told of miracles. In his old age he was increasingly asked about political topics. Kaduri was regarded as a prophet by his followers, because he could also predict some events in the future. In the last years of his life he was occupied with finding out the identity of the Messiah. However, he did not publish his own books. He was one of the most prominent rabbis that existed in Israel.In 2006 he died of pneumonia at the age of 108 years. Several hundred thousand people attended his funeral in Jerusalem, which was described as the largest funeral in Israel's history.

Kaduri knows the name of the Messiah: Yehoshua (Jesus)

Rabbi Kaduri never told anyone the name of the Messiah; but before he died, he left a note on a piece of paper which was placed in a sealed envelope and was only allowed to be opened until a year after his death. He told that the name of the Messiah was hidden in his text. When the year was over, his disciples published the sensational text. It was not the Christians who made this text known to all people, but the followers and admirers of Rabbi Kaduri, to the people of Israel. Taking the first letter of each word reveals the name of the Messiah: Yehoshua (Jesus). Following his mystic and secretive Kabbalah tradition, Kaduri used a code to reveal the secret. He wrote a sentence in Hebrew “Yarim Ha’Am Veyokhiakh Shedvaro Vetorato Omdim” which translated means “He will lift the people and prove that his word and law are valid.”  Each letter in bold spells out the Hebrew name for Jesus. Yehoshua and Yeshua are the same name, and come from the root word for ‘salvation.’ Rabbi Kaduri’s grandson said his father had met the Messiah, and that Messiah said He was coming. Early in 2004, Rabbi Kaduri said, “I have just seen the face of Moshiach.” 

The Importance of  The Holy Spirit- Ruach-Ruh

The Holy Spirit has existed eternally, in perfect unity with the Father and the Son, even before the creation of time. Throughout Scripture, the Spirit is intricately involved in every act attributed to God. The Bible itself is inspired by the Holy Spirit, making it a direct manifestation of His work. To disregard the Bible is to disregard the Holy Spirit, and as the Holy Spirit is God, it is ultimately to disregard God Himself. The reception of the Holy Spirit is a transformative moment for both individual believers and the church as a whole. In the book of Acts, this event signifies the inclusion of the Samaritans into the body of Christ, perfectly fulfilling Jesus' command in Acts 1:8 to be His witnesses "in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." The Holy Spirit's arrival upon the Samaritans demonstrates God's acceptance of all people, tearing down ethnic and cultural barriers. This moment mirrors the Pentecost in Acts 2  where the Spirit was first poured out upon Jewish believers, and it foreshadows the inclusion of Gentiles as seen in Acts 10.   Theologically, these events underscore the indispensable role of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. He empowers, guides, and provides the assurance of salvation, as affirmed in Romans 1:8 and Ephesians 1:13-14.  The Holy Spirit unites all believers, regardless of background, into one body, fulfilling God’s redemptive plan for humanity.

Indwelling of the Holy Spirit 

Adam and Eve had the natural light of the Holy Spirit and Divine Will prior to sin.  The Virgin Mary, in God’s wisdom to redeem man was born immaculate and the Holy Spirit was part of her inner being.  Catherine Emmerich describes her vision, At this moment I was granted a wonderful insight into the inner being of the holy child Mary. I saw her as if transfused with light by the priest's blessing, and under her heart in an indescribable glory of light I saw the same appearance as I had seen in contemplating the Holy of Holies in the Ark of the Covenant. In a shining space shaped like Melchizedek's chalice I saw indescribable figures of the blessing in the form of light. I saw at one and the same time how, above this appearance, her heart opened like a temple door; and how this mystery, surrounded by a kind of canopy of symbolic jewels, passed into her opened heart. It was as though I saw the Ark of the Covenant entering the Holy of Holies in the Temple. The portico has a large open arc through which you can see the background of an open sky and the wall of an enclosed garden. This garden is an allusion to the image that the Spouse uses for His bride in the Song of Songs. (Cfr. Song 4:12) The High Priest bows his head as a sign of reverence to Mary and makes a gesture for her to enter the sanctuary.

Christianity 

In Christianity, the Holy Spirit—or Holy Ghost—is the third Divine Person of the Trinity, alongside God the Father and God the Son. The Holy Spirit is known as the Helper, Spirit of truth, and the Spirit of God. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit occurs when God takes permanent residence in a believer's body. In the Old Testament, the Spirit empowered saints temporarily but didn’t always remain with them (Judges 15:14; 1 Chronicles 12:18; Psalm 51:11; Ezekiel 11:5). Jesus revealed the Holy Spirit would "live in you": “He lives with you and will be in you” (John 14:17). The Apostle Paul declared, “Do you not know your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies” (1 Corinthians 6:19–20).

To be a Christian is to have the Holy Spirit living in you. You cannot be a Christian if you don’t have the Holy Spirit. Sadly, of 176 million American adults identifying as Christian, only 6% (15 million) hold a biblical worldview. While most self-identified Christians, including many evangelicals, believe God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and the Creator, over half reject various biblical teachings, including the Holy Spirit's existence. 

    Islamic

    The holy spirit, also known as the Ruh al-Qudus in Arabic, holds great significance within Islamic teachings. Understanding the role and nature of the holy spirit is essential to comprehending the spiritual depth of Islam. In Islam, the holy spirit is identified as the angel Jibril (Gabriel). In Islamic theology, Jibril holds a pivotal role as the messenger of Allah, delivering divine revelations to the prophets. His mission can be seen as somewhat analogous to the role of the Holy Spirit in other traditions. Sent by Allah, Jibril aids His chosen servants in fulfilling their divinely ordained duties. For 23 years, Jibril conveyed revelations to Prophet Muhammad, culminating in what Muslims believe to be Allah’s final and complete message to humanity—the Quran. This profound act is often understood as being inspired by Allah’s spirit or essence. Unlike the Christian concept of the Holy Spirit as an independent entity, Jibril serves as a divine emissary, guiding prophets and believers toward righteousness and aligning their actions with God’s will. Muslims do not view the holy spirit as a distinct person within the Godhead, but rather as a divine force or power.

    The Angel Gabriel-Ruh al-Qudus is a conduit sent by God, a heavenly messenger, however does not dwell within the person itself. 

    Judaism 

    In Judaism, the holy spirit represents the divine force or quality of God manifesting in the world through acts of prophecy, creation, and guidance. Ruach Haqodesh

    Judaism does not believe in a separate manifestation of God referred to as the “Holy Spirit”. Judaism does believe that God’s Spirit (or Presence) is Holy.

    The Torah is literally “instruction,” -- the   five books of Moses, which are the foundation of all Jewish instruction and guidance. The written Torah is brief and precise while the Talmud elaborates on the Torah. The Talmud consists of the Mishnah, a written record of the Oral Torah, and the Gemara, a commentary on the Mishnah. The discussions reflect real efforts to apply G‑d’s word to life. The Talmud has been central to Jewish cultural life and thought, serving as "the guide for daily life." It includes teachings and opinions of thousands of rabbis on topics such as  Jewish ethics, philosophy, customs, history, medical advice, stories, sayings, fabric dyeing tips and folklore. 

    The term shekhinah" "dwelling"  does not appear in the Hebrew Bible. The closest reference is two verses in Exodus in which God promises to dwell among the Israelites once they have built the tabernacle and states that if two people sit together and share words of Torah, the shekhinah abides among them.  

    Since Jewish law does not recognize the Holy Spirit as an inward dwelling of God, it is easy to see that the Talmud is not inspired by the Holy Spirit. The  "dwelling of God" resided among them and not within them. The Talmud is the exploration to uncover Divine wisdom. Engaging in discussions of the teachings hope to unite the mind with God however, the Holy Spirit does NOT reside "within" the person. 

    Virtues and the Holy Spirit essential for Heaven

    The Holy Spirit revealed the sacred messages of Scripture to the prophets. The authors of the Bible did not write from their own understanding or desires, but were Divinely guided and inspired by the Spirit of God. The Bible stands as God’s own Word, crafted through His Spirit’s profound influence. Every contributor to Sacred Scripture was moved and directed by this Divine presence.

    It wasn’t until the coming of Jesus that He proclaimed the Holy Spirit would dwell within us. The Holy Spirit plays a vital role in establishing a deep, personal relationship with God. Through the Spirit, we are granted access to the heavenly realm and equipped to fulfill our God-given purpose on Earth. When the Holy Spirit resides within you, He empowers you to use the gifts God has bestowed, keeping you aligned with His Divine Will and purpose. When the Divine Will lives inside a heart and lays the fullness of Its endless light within it, It centralizes everything and everyone, It does everything, It renews everything resulting in a re-birth. 

    The Holy Spirit nurtures virtues in our hearts, leading us to seek God sincerely and ascend the spiritual path toward heaven, as revealed by the Lord. Reflecting on this, the Lord once shared, “Jacob’s Ladder symbolizes the life and virtues of the Most Holy Virgin—her sacred mysteries. Observe her virtues, meditate upon them, and strive to imitate them.”

    As 2 Peter 1:20-21 reminds us: “Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.”

    In the light of other Abrahamic religions, while divine inspiration was given, it was through Jesus, the Messiah, that believers were taught about the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. This Spirit enables us to live in accordance with the Divine Will. Before the fall, Adam and Eve shared in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, empowering them to follow God’s Divine Will. Now, through Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Holy Spirit is restored to humanity as a gift, bringing us into unity with God’s purpose.

    The followers of the fallen angels, used their knowledge using the Emerald tablets, creating the groundwork of the occult world.  The fallen angels, knew of the Holy Spirit as they were once in heaven and saw all before the fall.  Knowing the portal to the heavens resided in activating the pineal gland, they sought to control the Holy Spirit, through the darkness of their underworld religion.  It wasn't until Jesus Christ, God made man, the Messiah came the first time, that followers of Jesus understood the power of the Holy Spirit, enabling them to see through the evil of the false religions. The Holy Spirit, embodied in the Baptism of Jesus, the last supper with the Eucharist (Body and Blood of Jesus-God) and the Descent of the Holy Spirit after the Resurrection of Jesus are lasting sacraments that were given to ALL man who believe in the Son. 

    The Holy Spirit in Jesus'  Own Words

    Jesus said that his words are spirit and life…“It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” (John 6:63) …His Word will last forever…“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” (Matthew 24:35; Mark 13:31; Luke 21:33) … the Holy Spirit will stay with men, “the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you.” (John 14:26)

    Bible vs.  Satanic Bible 

    It’s fascinating to compare the influence of "He of Nine" from the Underworld of Thoth, who offered guidance from the depths of Hell-Amenti. Jesus, the Messiah, walked freely on Earth, sharing the teachings of the Beatitudes and the Heavenly realm.  Just as we receive 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit; you see an example of the adversaries influence through freemasonry, occultism and even the satanic bible.  The number 9 is often associated with the duality of good and evil and judgement. All the qualities and virtues instilled by the works of the Holy Spirit are Good like God.  All of the selfish, egotistical and uncharitable works of satan are evil. 

    Gifts of the Holy Spirit                                                          Satanic Bible

    1. Word of wisdom                                                               Indulgence, Not Abstinence
    2. Word of knowledge                                                          Vital Existence, Not Spiritual Illusion
    3. Gift of faith                                                                        Undefiled Wisdom, Not Hypocritical Self-Deceit
    4. Gift of healing                                                                    Kindness to Those Who Deserve It, Not Love Wasted on Ingrates
    5. Working of miracles                                                         Vengeance, Not Turning the Other Cheek
    6. Prophecy                                                                            Give Responsibility to the Responsible
    7. Distinguishing between spirits                                       Man Is Just Another Animal
    8. Speaking in tongues                                                         Celebrating the So-Called Sins
    9. Interpreting tongues                                                         Best Friend the Church Has Ever Had

     

    Jesus stated “I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come”. Matthew 12:31Fruits of the Spirit: In Galatians 5:22-23, Paul lists the qualities shown by those under the Holy Spirit’s influence: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

    Pharisees

    The Pharisees upheld the written law of Moses while giving equal authority to oral tradition, which over time altered God’s Word—a practice forbidden (Deuteronomy 4:2). The Gospels often show the Pharisees elevating human traditions to the level of God’s Word (Matthew 9:14; 15:1–9; 23:5, 16, 23; Luke 11:42). Jesus rebuked them using Isaiah 29:13: “Their teachings are merely human rules” (Mark 7:7). The Pharisees, spiritual ancestors of modern Judaism, emphasized the Oral Law, believed to be given alongside the Torah. The *Written Law* in the Torah provided commandments requiring interpretation. The Pharisees taught that God also gave oral guidance for understanding these laws. Originally passed down verbally, this tradition was recorded three centuries later in the Talmud, a foundational Jewish text. The Talmud includes teachings and opinions for daily life. 

    There are many modern day Pharisees, who place their own human law above God's Word.  These individuals lack the Holy Spirit.   This includes  those who do not believe in Jesus, in addition to those groups who place self above God, such as Freemasons, Illuminati,  atheists, occultists, New Age practitioners. 

    When the Pharisees heard people recognizing the Messianic sign (Matthew 12:23), they, having already plotted to kill Jesus (Matthew 12:14), accused Him of healing the blind man through demonic power (Matthew 12:24). This was an attempt to discredit Him and prevent the crowd from believing He was the Messiah. Jesus rebuked them, calling them "offspring of vipers" and comparing them to snakes spreading spiritual death (Matthew 3:7, 12:34, 23:33). They actively worked to lead others away from Heaven and turned them into "sons of Hell" (Matthew 23:13-14). According to John 8:44, their true father was the satan the adversary. Christ's warning to them, was an  act of grace, extended in hope of repentance. 

    Living Stones Building the Third Temple..., 

    1 Peter 2:5 " Rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, insincerity, envy, and all slander" Come as living stones, and let yourselves be used in building the spiritual temple, where you will serve as holy priests to offer spiritual and acceptable sacrifices to God through Jesus Christ.
