The Fall: Adam and Eve
In the beginning, two people lived together perfectly in a perfect garden. From a young age, as if like a brother and a sister they eventually fell passionately in love. Their love for one another was right and true, but it still being only the sixth day, in their combined innocent love for one another, before their wedding day, a baby was born.
Born of Sin
Still being the sixth day, is the thousands of years in man’s days for two people to finally understand the promise; the difference between good and evil.
When darkness and light become so defined, all things unknown become known. Here we are, still a man and a woman except, this time, we are collectively each either the man or the woman.
God defines us now as either Jews or Gentiles (all non-Jews) and history has been our lesson. When we also fall in love, as the man and woman did in the beginning, a new child will be born, called the Messiah. That is when we know and the full face of God will finally be revealed.
Is Religion God?
I am your biggest advocate against religion since religion is man’s way of defining God through his fallibility.
That being said, I believe religion is there to teach us something except when it is stagnant and chooses not to admit its mistakes. Judaism tries to learn from its mistakes and understands that we are being perfected through time. Judaism is always learning to grow into a better version of itself.
I choose also to learn from religion and its mistakes. Here we are in a certain time, where we can no longer deny our past — whoever we are, everything said and done has been recorded and everything can be easily accessed. The religious walls are starting to crumble as it no longer can control who enters its building and what we have to say about it all.
The Big Question
How do the Jewish people communicate with God since there is no physical building/temple that contains the holy of holies for them to commune?
On the other hand, the claim that has caused too many wars came from a people who had no clue what Jewish is because they’ve denied it, yet, said they believed in it — This man, who came, who was a temple (as you and I are) but was the new Adam and knew God like no other man ever did.
When his body broke, that temple, which contained the holy of holies became accessible to everyone who believed.
The torch held by the Jews is still for the Jews, but all the rest of us are just waiting for us to finally understand.
The person is this spiritual place, between heaven and earth, that allows us to be clean to have holy communion with God.
Because Adam and Eve failed to be perfect (which had to be) for us to know good and evil, as God does, took a history of time.
The Seventh Day; A Day of Rest
Isn’t it so like God to challenge us this way? Each of us are now faced with a question, which means we truly have to be humble to accept all that we are in all our good and bad. Some might struggle more as their pride will never allow them to accept the challenge that God has placed upon our hearts.
Messiah is Born
That state cannot be achieved until we learn to love with God’s divine love. That is when the man and woman, the Jew and the Gentile, who seek to know, will finally also learn divine love and be one. They love one another and can now stand together with God as One and be His Bride.
That is when Messiah is born, we understand, and the world can start over again and be restored.
He is I AM.
Together WE ARE.
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion,
Streaming to the goodness of the Lord—
For wheat and new wine and oil,
For the young of the flock and the herd;
Their souls shall be like a well-watered garden,
And they shall sorrow no more at all.
Jeremiah 31:12
