The Mark of the Beast (666) Homosexuality

The repentant child of Yahweh, the awesome Creator of the universe and the only one to whom the title of God is truly deserving; who have accepted the blood bought sacrificed of Yahweh's son: Jesus Christ and who have not voluntarily defiled themselves, with the abominable acts of homosexuality and or bestiality, (Lev: 20: 13 says, if to men commits homosexuality, they shall be put to death and they will be the cause of and responsible for their death because they have committed a sexual abomination – Bestiality Lev 20: 15-16), will be required to walk this path of life alone. This is so, by virtue of our choice to follow the Creator not half-heartedly but all the way. We will not be able to relying on anyone but the God who have kept us by his power, love and grace. By trusting in the saving power of Yahweh, the great Creator of the Universe and of man, to protect us from conspiracy to harm us, to oppress us and to cause even our defilement by force. 

Yahweh's faithful, will soon find out that the meaningful relationship we have developed with friends, family and acquaintances, mean very little to them. Most of the people we have interacted with, have voluntarily give up themselves to Homosexuality and or Bestiality; some of them secretly so. They strongly believe that their secret is safe and they make added effort to keep their secret safe, by venomously denouncing the sexual defilements, for which the penalty is death. They play the game of hide and come seek, until their father the devil, summons them into action, against the holy and righteous (right living) children of the almighty God: Yahweh. 

I am not speaking of the people who have been raped by virtue of being a victim of one who were able to overpower them. But I am speaking of those, who have made the conscious decision to participate in the abominable acts. In such case, these victims of rape, who have experienced the physical violation, did not commit homosexuality, for they were not willing participate in their violation. It is important to note, one will have to be a willing participant.

In the time of the end, Yahweh will make his presence known and felt. He will show up and act on behalf of his faithful children; even as he protected his faithful Messengers, from the inhabitants of Saddam Genesis 19: 10, by striking those who so try to defile his Holy Messengers with blindness. Yahweh will once again and in greater glory, manifest himself and his power to secure and ensure the continued purity of his faithful children, who have vow and have been unconditionally and diligently following his will. 

These are critical times and Yahweh's faithful servants must do all in their power, to keep themselves in total harmony with their God, who is also their creator and jealous protector. It is the only way that Yahweh's faithful children, can be assured that they remained in his grace and protection. It is important that the faithful, do all that is within their power, to make sure the channel between them and Yahweh remains clear. This is required to ensure that they are able to hear his instruction, when given to them in real time, to ensure their safety, continued protection and eventual salvation. 

Each day we are obligated to ensure, we keep ourselves in a renewed state of his Godly favor; for yesterday's favor will not be sufficient for today and the favor of our son, daughter, spouse or other relative will not be adequate for us to glean from. The campaign to secure the sexual defilement of Yahweh's blood bought faithful children, will only get more and more intense as time roles on. There will be three phases in the struggle: there will be the radical but simple unnoticed fazes. Even though the bible is clear as it relates to homosexuality and bestiality (Lev: 20: 13 says, if to men commits homosexuality, they shall be put to death and they will be the cause of and responsible for their death because they have committed a sexual abomination), it will not detour the defile in their effort to continually practice such. They will try to deceive the innocent or try to physically defile them by gang and other rapes. 

Phase one: the battle of the mind. The enemy of Yahweh and his follower; both in the spirit and human realms, will do all in their power, to normalize homosexuality and bestiality. These defile acts will become so common place and practice in public that it will appear to be normal human activities. Many will even teach domesticated animals, how to perform these acts on cue, to give the impression that nature is in tune with these sexual behaviors. But the animals that are in the wild will represent Yahweh’s will for man and for beast. 

There will be Sons of Satan (Gen 3:15) and other demon inspired agent of the devil, who hold the title of Gospel Ministers, gospel preacher, gospel prophets etc. with extremely large following, who in the initial stages, will give the "impression" that there is nothing wrong with the acts of homosexuality and or bestiality. In Matt. 15:14, Jesus referred to these people as the "Blind leading the blind": and in Matt: 15: 13, he also said "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots." However as the time get closer to the end, they will publicly and unashamedly declare that there is nothing wrong with such acts that the Bible calls abomination and will deceive many. Romans 1: 26-27 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.

The Mark of the Beast (666) Part 2 Homosexuality

Whilst all this is going on in the human realms, the demonic world will be busy at work, carrying out their assignments with even greater purpose than ever before. They will use subliminal and other over powering audible suggestion to convinced Yahweh's faithful children that it is OK to participated in the sacrifice of defilement by homosexuality and or laying with an animal of a lower order: bestiality, which represents, the ultimate sacrifice to the devil, from which there is no turning back. 

Behind the scenes the entire power of heaven, which including angels of different class and caliber, the Holy spirits of Yahweh, even the seven Spirit that is found in the midst of the One who sits upon the throne and reign forever and ever will be draft in this holy and most important spiritual war to secure the souls and for the redemption of Yahweh faithful. These heavenly creatures will be in our midst, and in the midst of all who has to suffer such temptation; and their responsibility will be to guide you out of the valley of the shadows of eternal death. Their shouts of warning and their directions to us will be calling us back to the loving and forgiving father: Yahweh. Those who fall would have drowned out the voice of Yahweh's holy angels and his holy spirit with their burning lust to participate in uncleanness. 

All who fall would have made a special effort to block out the voices of God's messengers, whose influences were more powerful and more penetrating than that of the enemies of Yahweh. They will have no one but themselves to blame if the drink of the cup of homosexuality and or bestiality and be forever lost. 

At this stage, the people who choose to participate in these acts and defile themselves, will immediately after their defilement, in the same way Adam knew he was naked, will feel a total separation from their creator. At that stage, the host of heaven, will stop communicating with those who, have so purposefully, turn their backs on the pleading of the hose of heaven. 

The second stage is: Defilement by physical force, like in the day of Sodom and Gomorrah, the people who have defiled themselves, upon realizing there is no hope for them, will immediately, be under the direct and unrestrained will and leadership of their new master: Satan. No longer will the spirit of God, work with them by inspiration or through their consciences. They will be given over to the total control of their chosen master: Satan.

In an effort to destroy the faithful of Yahweh, these people will attempt to defile Gods faithful by gang raping etc., in the same way, such practice were prevalent in Sodom and Gomorrah. In similar manner, as he did in that sinful twin city that was destroyed by fire, Yahweh’s holy angels will intervene in the affairs of men, in defense of his faithful children. Their holy presence will send terror in man’s heart, for it is then, they would have fully understand the gravity of their condition. By this time, they will understand that their end and the end of this world is at hand. 

The third phase will be the coming out of the man who is the beast; or the power behind the mark of the beast (Rev 13: 17) would have already put everything in place to facilitate his coming out from behind the scenes. He will restrict the ability of man to buy, sell and partake in the daily affairs of living. Many who are looking for a literal electronic device to be inserted into their hand and or forehead as is commonly believe will be greatly deceived? The mark of the beast is not a devise, but it is the voluntarily submitting to homosexuality or bestiality, either for the pleasure or for convenience. The act of getting involved in homosexuality and or bestiality is the mark of defilement or the mark of the beast. In the same manner the seal of Yahweh’s people in their forehead is not a literal seal, but a firm unshakable commitment to follow after the lamb (Jesus Christ) where so ever he may go.

The mark given on the forehead and on the hand is symbolic in nature; they are not literal marks. The mark on the hand is symbolic for defilement to facilitate the convenience of life: The ability to buy, sell and participate in the affairs of modern human existence. The make on the forehead is also symbolic and symbolizes the actual belief in the system and what it stands for. In other words; people who received the mark on the forehead are those who believed that Homosexuality and bestiality are wholesome practices and man should practice the same.

Seedless fruits a sign of the end of time

The wicked devil and his agents are busy preparing for the fulfilment of prophecy. Although they know it was foretold, and they will be satisfying the creator’s plans, they move helplessly forward blinded by hate of Yahweh and for those whom he have created and made, to be the benefactors of his son Jesus’ sacrifice. This course of actions, that the fallen one and his subjects have ventured on is to quench their evil and wicked desires and overwhelming thirst to force Yahweh's people into force allegiance to anyone but their creator. 

For century, the son of predation and those human who opposes: their creator and God, have been busy putting things into place to facilitate world domination. A world dominated by the followers of Satan who will oppress the blood bought children of Yahweh. They will do this and use torture, and appetite to have those who believe and profess Yahweh as their Lord and king, to perform such an atrocious act, it will make an unbreachable gap between them and the Father/Savior. An act that is so defile, it will make the creator of the Universe: Yahweh and all of heaven blush in disgusts and shame. This act will of course enable those who so perform, with the freedom to participate in all aspect of societal life, but will forever shut the door to forgiveness, repentance, and the kingdom of Yahweh to whoever with a clear mind get involved in such. 

A part of the preparation for this time in man’s history, there have been lots of preparation taking place. The scientists have been busy modified most key fruits to be seedless. God give seed bearing fruits etc. As is, it is the devil’s sole intent to undo everything that Yahweh have done. The genetic modification of the fruits especially the fruits that are seedless; is to facilitate the ushering in of the mark of the beast system. The system will not be effective unless the powers of darkness have a monopoly over food and the overall production of all food source. All those who refuse to participate in the system, by getting involved with defiling themselves in order to participate in life, will be brought into submission with the use of the appetite. Those who have little or no control over appetite will be brought into subjection to Lucifer and the power of darkness when they are asked to experience extreme hunger. Wilderness dwelling would not be an option, for those who choose to run away from the city will be unable to sustain themselves. 

The reproduction of plant food source will be monopolized by the system, and if you are a slave to appetite you will have to go crawling to the ungodly system and accept and defile yourself. This represent accepting the mark of the beast in the hand. All those who so accept the system, and receive the mark of the beast in their hand, will do so because it is convenient not because they believe in the system and the physical desecration of the temple of God right. These people would have go against their conscience to ensure the pain of hunger is stop. Their inability to control appetite, will lead them to do like Essah and it will lead to the downfall of many God fearing people. The physical appetite (control of ones craving for food) will be the single elements that will cause God's people to lose out on their salvation. Hence the warning to bring the whole man into subjection

The Testimony of Yahweh

The Holy Bible is just one of the books that contains the truth about Yahweh and his son Jesus the Christ (Jesus the Savior). Yahweh was before the existence of existence and he spans eternity. His truth, his ways, his awesomeness cannot be contained in such a little book. This limitless God will never teach his people, who for centuries, were forced to adopt another culture in the same way he taught those who were left behind. His infinite and perfect wisdom is too vast to be so limited. Yahweh was before the existence of the world. Yahweh spans eternity and His truth, his ways, his awesomeness cannot be contained in any a little book.

Yahweh is more concerned about the reconciliation of lost man back into his will and favor, and the scriptures and others understanding of who he is, is based on the level of the relationship the individual has with him. It is important to note that the objective of Yahweh’s communication with us is to facilitate our redemption. Our understanding will be total confusion if he try to give us more than we need to accomplish this all important objective.

There are many people who think that their understanding of the Creator is the only understanding of God there is, and as a result they try to bring each person into conformity with their believe system and try to show other Yahweh and Jesus in the same manner they understands him. Not giving those with whom they come into contact, the opportunity to get to know God for themselves and have him reveal to them (Searchers) what he want them to know about himself and to bring them into a perfect union with him.

Do you know that Yahweh, is the only being that deserved to be given the title of God? Did you know the most powerful adjective that exist, the word: awesome, was meant to be equated only with the Creator and that word, cannot adequately described a single though of this magnificent God. The only thing we can do is to learn as much about him as we can by subjecting ourselves to the holy spirit. It is only through subjection to the Holy Spirit, that his person will be reveal to us. We will learn the things about God that are too complex to be explained in words, that are to vast to be describe in text, that is so mind blowing that a visual will leave you in awe!

He will only cause to be revealed to us that about him that will help to ensure and secure our salvation.

The relationship between Yahweh and Man: Part 1

Yahweh God, the ultimate creator of the universe, did not only give dominion of the earth; to man: the male; Yahweh also took the time to develop an intimate relationship the man. Contrary to popular belief and wishes, Yahweh did not develop a relationship with the woman.

It is important to note that before the woman was created: the man was given the opportunity to cement a relationship with his creator.

If the man was to be an effective and Godly guardian of that which the creator has entrusted to him. He must learn from the best, the creator: the all knowing God himself. Therefore, the Creator took the time to develop a close and personal relationships with the man. In other words: The creator spent a great deal of quality time with the first man, the only super intelligent creature he made.

Although there are hints of intelligence in all creatures, the man was endowed with a wealth of intelligence that set him apart from every other creature. Hence the reason Yahweh had planned and actually delegate such awesome responsibility to the man: the male. 

According to the Genesis account of the creation, we see even before the woman was created, Yahweh took the opportunity to dedicate a lot of quality and a great quantity of time in the relationship with man, he also put a grate deal of effort, and divine planning into his appointment and the training of the man before he was allowed to take up his assignment as custodian of the earth.

Part 2 the relationship developed.

The West Indian Blackman

The black West Indian are children of Israelite and our God is Yahweh the Grate creator of the Universe. The white man have stolen our God and deny us of the knowledge of who he is and his favor to us while enslaving us.

I am a proud son if Israel who was banished into captivity but it is time for us to come to the realization and understand who we are. I am one of Yahweh chosen child. Bear in mind that the Jews that is found in the west and who currently Occupy Jerusalem do not represent Israel. But they are the product of inter-marriage with the heathen and were looked down upon by the pure blooded children of Israel; Please note they were used by every conqueror of my people to oppress the Children of Israel.

So I do not know which other God you are speaking of. I am a black man and my God is Yahweh the creator of the Universe who manages everything. The God who must first sanction the falling of a leaf before it falls from the tree that host it.

Yahweh is the one true and living Supreme God. He is the only one who deserved to be address by the title God everyone and their Gods are impostors.

Allan H. F. Palmer: Black Men empowerment

The Allan H. Palmer Black Men Empowerment seminar is a non-denominational, bible base program that is designed to teach Black men who they are and God’s will for them in the scheme of his ordained will. It gives men the power and the knowledge to be the best men God have enabled us to be. It provides the tools to be loving and dedicated husbands, Committed and nurturing fathers positive community builders and leaders: strong moral men. 

Ask yourself this question: why is it, the churches are packed with women and the good intended strong men are elsewhere?

How can a pastor who cannot control his wife, whose children are going astray; who depends on the vulnerability of his congregation for their financial sustainability teaches strong men: how to live successful lives? It is unfortunate but this is what most churches are made up of; weak men who hides behind the robe of Pastor etc. 

It is important to note that most minister of religion were not called to ministry; was your called? A large majority of pastor were insecure nobodies as children and young adult, hence the reason they choose to become pastors. It gives them an opportunity to be the “Big Man” they never were. Unfortunately; these so call men-of-God are leaders of women and weak men like themselves who make up their congregation. 

It is also important to pay attention to the fact that these so called pastors; preach messages that are designed to justify their failure. The biblical justification of failure only set up their followers to fail. Do you want to have a person who has failed at living emptying their dirty unsuccessful lives in to your consciousness?

Another dominant factor that is presence in organized religion is the belittling of men. This is so because the so call pastors are threatened by strong men, as a result they preach sermons that empower the women in the congregation while belittling the men. It is easier to control an insecure male than it is to a man who is confident, has a strong sense of self, Justice, right, wrong and the word of God.

God created men to be: strong, moral leaders of the community, the king and priest of his home, confidence and trusted. Men who can be entrusted with the children of his neighbors, one who can be entrusted with the truth and honesty, one who is strong enough to dispense justice in its fullness, he will do so with integrity;regardless of who is at the receiving end of such dispensation?

Today, the modern day biblical teachers are totally incapable, of inspiring our men, to achieve these expected personal and character goals. This is so because they have accepted a call they did not received; a call that was not intended for them. They imposed themselves into Yahweh’s ministry and as a result we have men in lofty spiritual position that were intended for Holy Spirit filled men, who followed the spirit’s leading. However the so called men of God have become estranged from their creator, their protector, and their provider: the Almighty God. As a result they are endowed with the responsibility of teaching well intended people about a God they don’t know and in some cases a God they don’t care about. This is the sad unpolished truth but it is our reality. 

Do you know there are specific biblical criteria of choosing a wife?

Do your wife or significant other has an objection to every suggestion you make?

Is there an argument with every recommendation you make? 

Do you feel like you have to fight with your wife or significant others over the simplest opinion

Does the woman in your life make you feel like a total idiot?

Homosexuality is a choice - You may choose differently

Homosexuality is conjugal relationship between two people of the same sex or gender. Of recent time these types of intimacy, have become widely practiced and accepted. Today many who so practice this form of sexuality have been showered with community compassion that have grant to them a never before level of freedom that give them a new boldness. This new boldness have transform what was once considered a gross illegal act, into an acceptable practice that is conducted in public. Needless to say, the internet is overrun with graphic videos of same sex conjugality.

It is my belief that each person has the freedom to manage the life that Yahweh the awesome God entrusted to them, the best way they see fit.

A person do not the right but they have the freedom to miss manager their responsible if they so choose. Bearing in mind, there are consequences for each action. There are consequences for breaking the laws of man, the moral laws or the laws of nature/the natural law. Two typical examples of these are.

1. Breaking the Law of Man - If you murder a person and you are discovered, you will be arrested, processed, prosecuted, imprisoned or be put to death. Those are the consequences of murder

2. The Law of nature - if a person jump off a ten story building without a flying aid, the law of gravity which is one of the laws of nature says: height of the building + weight of the person + maximum speed down = volume of the impact.

A consequence may be a reward or a punishment. Each person has the freedom or free will to choose the path that best serve their purpose. But no person has a right to do that which is wrong. Meaning, we have an obligation to our community to do that which is legal, what is moral, what is natural. But we have the free will not to comply if we so choose.

It is important to note, the only law man has control over are the laws that make up man's legal system. No matter how hard man try he will never, can never get manipulative control over the moral law or the natural law. These these two bodies of laws were created, ordained, instituted and is enforced by Yahweh the ultimate power himself.

In other words man change the laws that constitutes man's legal system to appease the decline or the elevation of community's standard of morality. While the laws of nature and the moral law were created, instituted and are being enforced by Yahweh and no one dear challenge his authority or his kingship.

It is important to come to grip with, the laws that makes up man's legal system are based on the moral law, Yahweh's law as outlined in the holy scriptures.

I said all this to say, I am aware that I do not have the authority or any power over the choices others make; and I do not have the control over the environmental conditions, the circumstances, or any other deciding influential factor that drives a person to do whatever they choose to do. I also do not have the authority to hate a person because of their choices but I don't have to agree with a persons choices and I don't have to respect their choices either contrary to popular opinion and belief. What I don't have the right to do however is to hate a person because if their choices.

In closing I have no law of my own. I am obliged to obey the law of the land, as far as my spiritual beliefs will allow me to. Any time the law of man contradicts or clashes with the laws of Yahweh: the all wise creator of the universe, then I have no choice, for I have resolve that I will suffer the consequences and comply with Yahweh's laws.

Rape is a blight I will not wish on anyone.

Duet. 22: 25-26

The problem of rape has been with us for quite a while. This devastating and troubling situation impacts not only the victims but the victims family, but more so, the children of the victim.

Children of rape victims has an 80% chance of being raped at or around the same age at which their parents were raped. This is so, because the shame and the pain that are associated with raped; causes the victim to recoil in an attitude of intense secrecy. Thus their children never really understands the strange behaviors, the bouts of depressions, the mood swings, etc. of their parents.

Rape is such a devastating phenomena the occurrence of which, normally mark the creation of a family cycle. This may spans many generations unless the cycle is broken. The attitudes and other behaviours of victims are taught and communicated subliminally to their children and may spans the entire life of the affected family; being handed down from the victim to generation to generation within her line of the rape victim's offsprings.

Unfortunately the children of rape victims are subliminally taught to gravitate to the environment and in some cases to create the conditions that were present and facilitated the tradition that have blighted their family: RAPE! The blight of rape is not only cast upon the victim, but upon an entire linage of the victim. It is handed down like an inheritance to the children of victims. The dysfunction becomes their normal, for that is what they learn from the observation of their parent.

It is important to understand that a rape victim operates on a lower level than a person who have never been raped. A rape victim operates on a level of fear that gave godlike status to their rapist.

This makes it almost impossible for such people to serve Yahweh in spirit and in truth. But what does the bible have to say about rape and what are the prescribed and recommended manner in which the community ought to treat a rapist. Let's turn to: Deuteronomy 22:25, 27 KJV

"But if a man find a woman who is not a virgin in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die." The man only shall be put to death. From the word of God we can now conclude that in the view of Yahweh, rape is so despicable that he have ordained it so that one who violate a woman or a man against their will to be put to death.

In conclusion, victims if rape never really over come the trauma that was inflicted on then but they developed little coping skills to live with the devastating trauma of rape. Victims of rape are plunged into a state of insecurity they unknowingly but subliminally teaches their children.

The two to five minutes a person devote to pleasure themselves specially impacts not just your victim, but thousands of people even after they (the rapist) have die, and it hampers the victims ability to truly worshiping Yahweh.

Rape is a curse I will not wish upon anyone.

Confinement of the Devil

The archangel Lucifer and those who followed him into open rebellion against their creator, felt the bitter agony of their defeat, the shame of being conquered and the restriction of captivity. I do not know if the Devil thought that he had the capability to come up against the awesome powers of heaven and be victorious. Could it have been that he (the devil) was so blinded by his pride that he fail to acknowledge his position and role in the grand design of the heaven purpose.

Did he who had the ability through trickery and was capable of mustering one third of the heavenly being in a cosmic battle against his creator was capable of defeating the powers of heaven? Satan forgot that the powers he possessed was a gift to him by his awesome creator Yahweh and the said power that he possessed could have been taken away from him at any time. Satan took for granted, the freedom with which he was "allowed" to carry out his heavenly responsibility and assignment was an indication of the magnitude of his power and his growing supremacy above the God head. 

It was only when he suffered defeat at the hands of the holy Son of God: Jesus that he realized his error and the eternally fatal consequence that was associated with his actions. Unfortunately for the once commander of the angelic host, it was too late for him; his doom were already sealed. Now he must be held captive until the day of his final and eternal destruction. 

He can no longer existed in heaven because, he was no longer perfect. Heaven is a place for perfect being, it is the throne of the ultimate power and his loyal subjects. It was Yahweh who made the devil, and his angels, it is Yahweh who made the heavens and ordained its use. 

The Devil can neither be allowed to roam free, he must not appear to have benefit from his transgressions, and this will send the message. That would also send the message that while Jesus with the help of the other angel was able to defeat him, devil maybe the God head is not powerful enough to take any meaningful actions against the devil.

The authority of heaven had to make an example of the devil. The other members of heaven and the other worlds had to be given an example of Yahweh's power over the devil. Satan must be confined and stripped of access to his God invested power. Yahweh who knows the beginning from the end, also knew the perfect means by which the devil can be contained without the use of bars, locks and keys and such a place was already in existence.

In this case the earth, the home of human kind, with all its natural beauty and Godly tranquility, was the most suited place to aid in the eternal confinement of the devil. The perfection of earth was all the creator needed, to bind the power of the devil that transformed him into what can be considered a helpless babe. The only place, on the earth the devil found refuge and a level of comfort was upon the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; everywhere else provided tremendous discomfort for the one who questioned his creator's love, authority and perfect intent.

Man was aware of the confinement of the devil upon the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil. The creator's instructions were clear, man were free to eat of every tree of the Garden, however; he was not to go near the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, to touch the tree or to eat the fruit thereof.

The Almighty Creator knew that although earth's environment bonded the powers of the devil, he still had his ability to speak and the skill of deception that he so tactfully used to deceive one third of the host of heaven. Hence the admonishment not to go near the tree. 

The laws as it related to men’s interactions with this tree, was done out of love. Yahweh did not want to expose the first couple to anything that could have create a potential threat to the tranquility of dwelling in Jesus love, and the direct care with which was lavished upon the man and his panther.

A case for Barabbas

Barabbas or Christ the choice was given, and the people shouted give us Barabbas. Why did the people choose Barabbas over Jesus the Christ? This a very important question that most people have not taken time to answer. One which I will attempt to answer. In order for us to appropriately answer this question, we must first find out who was Barabbas?

Before we answer the question, who was Barabbas? We must first lay down some ground work. From since Israel Yahweh chosen people, was very dramatically delivered from Egyptian bondage; they have been an underdog nation who have come up against many nation that had much larger and mightier armies. Armies with better trained, more skilled fighters, with more sophisticated weapons etc. However when Israel was faithful to Yahweh: the awesome creator of the Universe, he always got personally involved in Israel's battles, and he did so on Israel's behalf and he always ensure his chosen people were always victorious. So we can now conclude that the key to Israel's victories were directly hinged on their faithfulness to the almighty Creator of the Universe: Yahweh.

 When Israel was faithful they were unbeatable, but when Israel was unfaithful to their God, they become easy pray to even the weakest of nation. The history of Israel is well documented, and the children of Israel knew of every instant that the awesome creator have saw them through a difficult circumstance. From the plight of Abraham to the deliverance of Egypt, from the parting of the Red Sea to the fall of the wall of Jericho and every event between. Now the people of Yahweh has lost their sovereignty and they was being the ruled by pagan Roam. There were two things that occurred that did not sit well with the members that made up the twelve tribes of Israel.

The first and most devastating of things that could have happened to Israel was the chosen people of the grate creator Yahweh became a conquered nation and must be subjected to the infidels: Roman rule and authority. The second was, the Roman elevated the half breed Israelites: the Jews, who are descendent of the tribe of Benjamin and was considered less than, by the full blood Israelites. Now the Jews were in full control over their brother, over whom they exercise oppressive control.

There could not have been two more embarrassing situations to have been placed upon Israel as the two that was outlined above. This situation could have easily been reversed, if Israel turn from their sins and turn back to God in faithfulness. For there was nothing that moved the hands of Yahweh, like the faithfulness of his nation, his people: Israel. Israel had lost their way, they wanted their freedom but they were not willing to return from their sins, return back to their God and live in faithful obedience to him who have called them and claimed them as his own, in accordance to his words. In other words Israel wanted to have their pie and eat it also.

Barabbas was among the group of men who try to free Israel from the political clutches the pagan Roman. They started a revolt against the Romans authority in an effort to free Israel. unfortunately the Roman crushed the revolt and Barabbas were taken prisoner. To the Romans, Barabbas was a common criminal a murderer, To the Israelites he was a hero, a freedom fighter, a liberator; the one who was willing to give his life for Israel political freedom. The Israelites, with the exception for the Jews, did not see anything wrong with Barabbas' actions, for they were tired of the oppression handed down to them from the Roman via the Jews. The capture and imprisonment of Barabbas, broke the fighting spirit of the Israel, their hope for political redemption was crushed with the death sentence that was laid upon their revolutionary: Barabbas.

What was unfortunate was; even if Barabbas managed to retook Israel's sovereignty from the Romans; their freedom would have been short lived, because Israel's freedom was rapped up in their faithfulness to Yahweh; the God who choose them to be his people. Israel will forever be a free and victorious as long as they were faithful to their God the one who called them. It was not within the power of Barabbas to liberate Israel that was God's responsibility. The liberation of Israel was always conditional upon their faithfulness to Yahweh.

When Jesus arrived on the scene there was renewed hope in Israel, the one to replace Barabbas was here. This Jesus was no ordinary man, this was a man who came from God. Nicodemus a member of the Jew ruling class acknowledged Jesus exceptional and supreme power, that he hid himself under the covers of night, went to Jesus and confessed. He said to Jesus; no man can do the things that you do unless he was sent by God. John 3: 2.

In the people's mind, they knew the power that Jesus had was beyond anything Barabbas had. They foresaw that Jesus' army was going to be the most mighty army there ever was or ever will be. Jesus' army was going to be much better than anything Barabbas was able to put together. General Jesus has the power to raise the dead, they foresaw men who were in general Jesus' army receiving fatal wound in battle and recovering from the dead ready to fight again; this was so because they saw Jesus raise the little maid and Lazarus from the dead. He can heal the sick and wounded, because of this, the injuries of his soldiers will be instantly taken care of and on two occasion they witnessed Jesus fed massive groups of five thousand and more. With General Jesus' ability to turn water into wine and to multiply a simple meal into healthy meal for five thousands and more. with these magnificent abilities, General Jesus' army will have no need for food. What an awesome General, Jesus was going to be; his army is going to be indestructible.

 Now all eyes were upon Jesus; with the type of power Jesus had, the Roman saw him as a threat to their continued reign over Israel, for they had no answer to the type of power he possessed, the Jews saw Jesus as a threat to their rule over their half brothers who looked down on them because of their history and the full blooded Israelites saw Jesus as their political Redeemer the one to set them free from Egyptian bondage.

Jesus was of the right lineage, as a matter of fact if Israel monarchy was unforced Jesus would have qualify to be King of Israel. Jesus had all of the characteristics that was needed to take the reign of Israel away from he authority of the Romans. He had the power to defeat and over throw the Romans, he was from the lineage (blood) to ascend the throne of Israel and he had the opportunity to over throw roam any time he so wish. But what was Jesus' God assigned mission on earth. It was not Jesus' mission to gain political power, to lead a revolution, or to follow in his forefather's King David's footsteps and rightfully ascend the throne of Israel; but it was his mission to redeem the world from sins. In order for him to do that, Jesus must die as a lamb would have died without retaliation, he was to suffer the humiliation of man at the hands of man.

Like most of us today, Israel confused the difference between their needs and their wants. But Jesus did not have no doubts as to what his role was on earth. Israel was not concerned about a spiritual savior, one who was capable of redeeming them from their sins, which they needed; they were more concern with gaining a political savior, one who could free them from Roman rule which they wanted. Israel did not understand what was best for them. Jesus had to obey his father's will, he had to do what was best for Israel and for the world: the pass, the present and the future. Israel had a way to be free from Roman political rule but they became so acquainted with sin that they refuse to turn away from their offensive living.

When Israel saw their expected political king, weak, defeated, naked, being mocked and made a fool of by the Romans as well as the Jews as is recorded in Mark 15 chapter. their hopes for political freedom was dashed against the wall. Compares to Jesus, Barabbas look strong. In their eyes Barabbas was a better candidate than Jesus to get them out of political bondage. What good is Jesus' power if he is not going to use it to free his brothers from Roman bondage, what good is having all that power if you are afraid to use it? They asked themselves.

To Israel and their desire for political freedom; Jesus was certainly not the man for the Job. Barabbas have shown them in the pass what he was willing to do, so he must be the man for the Job. As a result when Pilot asked in Mark 15: 11-13. who do you want Jesus the King of the Jews or Barabbas the revolutionary, it was an easy choice. Give us the one who will fight the Romans for our freedom; Give us Barabbas the shout went out.

If I was present, giving all of the evidence that I now have, I may have join the disappointed throng and say Give me Barabbas. I am happy that Jesus walked the path he choose, because to be free from the rule of political evil is all good, but to be granted the opportunity to be forever saved from your sins is even better. Thanks be to the wonderful blood of Jesus.
