Moses is a prophet in [[Abraham]]ic religions. According to the Hebrew [[Bible]], he was a former [[Egypt]]ian prince, possibly even the rightful [[Pharaoh]] of Egypt who later in life became a [[Religion|religious]] leader and lawgiver, to whom the authorship of the Torah is traditionally attributed.

== When Who and Why ==
 
James Ussher dates Moses' birth at 1571 BC. Yet we know that Rabbinical groups caculatetd the date closer to 1391. Moses celebrated as the lawgivers is memorialized in marble over the chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives in the United States Capitol, "Moses (c. 1350–1250 B.C.). Jerome sees the date as closer to the earlier date of 1592 BC.
 
All these dates and many more are debatable. But who fits the drama of the times and thinking of Moses?
 
Hatshepsut lived from 1507–1458 BC and had no male heir but only an adopted who should have become Thutmose III instead of an illegitimate stepson but chose not too.
 
He chose to set the people free rather than rule over them with riches.

The [[Christian conflict|conflict]] with the rulers like [[Cain]], [[Nimrod]], [[Pharaoh]], and the [[Caesar]]'s of the [[world]] who were the  [[Fathers]] of the earth was personified in the character of Moses and his teachings.  


Christ and his teachings again brought liberty but also a [[Christian conflict]] until [[Rome]] failed.
The [[temptations]] of Christ and His teachings again brought light to [[The Way]] of liberty under God but also a [[Christian conflict]] until [[Rome]] and its unrighteous [[mammon]] failed.
 
This ''liberty under God'' is called  [[Kingdom of God]] and simply means the right to be ruled by the God of heaven through your heart and mind through personal revelation under the [[Law of Nature]] rather than to be ruled by men and the [[Gods|gods many]] who men often give power to by forms of [[consent]] through political and economic systems which ultimately depend upon [[force]], [[fear]], and [[fealty]].
 
In the [[Kingdom of God]] man has access to his natural God given [[rights]] but he can only maintain those rights through diligent practices<Ref> [[Proverbs 12]]:24 "The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the [[Slothful]] shall be under [[Tribute]]."</Ref> of [[Fervent Charity]], [[faith]], and [[love]] toward their fellow man. In other words he must [[care]] about the [[rights]], [[life]] and [[family]] of his neighbor as much as his own.


The [[Kingdom of God]] simply means the right to be ruled by God in heaven through your heart and mind rather than be ruled by men and the [[Gods|gods many]] men give power to through political systems which use [[force]].
=== Moses said ===


In the [[Kingdom of God]] man has access to his natural God given rights but he can only maintain those rights through diligent practice<Ref> [[Proverbs 12]]:24 "The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the [[Slothful]] shall be under [[Tribute]]."</Ref> of [[Fervent Charity]] toward others. In other words he must care about the rights of his neighbor as much as himself.

: Mark 12:33  And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
: Luke 10:27  And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
: Romans 13:9  For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
: Romans 13:10  Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

: James 2:8  If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:</Ref> and we were not to ''oppress<Ref name="lachats">{{03905}}</Ref> the people in our midst''.<Ref>Exodus 23:9  Also thou shalt not oppress<[[03905]]-lachats> a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

Moses said we were to ''love our neighbor as ourselves'' and we were not to ''oppress the people in our midst''. We were even to ''give drink to our enemy''.
The prohibition by Moses and the prophets and not oppressing neighbors, the poor, or strangers is such a common theme there words at least five different words expressing that ''oppression'': ''lachats''<Ref name="lachats">{{03905}}</Ref>, yanah<Ref name="yanah">{{03238}}</Ref>, ashaq<Ref name="ashaq">{{06231}}</Ref>, daka<Ref name="daka">{{01792}}</Ref>, and daka<Ref name="daka">{{01792}}</Ref>. There are other words like gazal<Ref name="gazal">{{01497}}</Ref> that are not translated ''oppression'' but ''spoil, take away, rob, pluck, consume, exercised, and [[force]]'' which means much the same as ''oppress''.

The people in Judea and all over the Roman Empire were again using [[force]] through these [[covetous practices]] of the [[welfare state]] that brings the people back into the [[bondage of Egypt]] and makes leaders tyrants.

The people of [[Israel]] had rejected God back in the days of [[1 Samuel 8|Samuel]] when they elected to have a man rule over them like the other nations of the [[world]]. Hundreds of years later the Romans would through off the Tarquinian kings and establish a [[Republic]] in some ways similar to [[early Israel]]. They would both eventually return to the idea of a Ruler, or [[Emperor]], a ''chief executive officer, whose power would grow over time as the people [[Polybius|degenerated]] through their dependence upon social [[welfare]] programs like the [[Corban]] of the [[Pharisees]] and a plethora of [[benefits]] offered by the state.

Moses was a real individual. He is hard to identify in history because of the false understanding of the ancient text due to  [[sophistry]] and [[false religion]]. But also due to modern archaeology's confusions concerning the historic time lines which have been distorted through an entrenched academia.

But also due to modern archaeology's confusions concerning the historic time lines which have been distorted through an entrenched academia.  
There are those who question the timeline and chronological narrative of history. Tim Mahoney's ''Patterns of Evidence: The Exodus'' raises many questions with the help of the Dr David Rohl  a British Egyptologist and former director of the Institute for the Study of Interdisciplinary Sciences (ISIS). The discoveries of the ''The Amarna tablets'' and the excavation of the Middle bronze era site at Avarise among many other discoveries open the door to many possibilities to explain the story of Moses and this [[peculiar people]] that followed him into the wilderness.
The important thing to not lose sight of in the examination of these historical possibilities is the spirit of what ''liberty under God'' really looks like and what is [[righteous]] and what is unrighteous.

We know that a ''daughter of Pharaoh'' adopted Moses and gave him a name as she was called בַּת bath פַּרְעֹה parôh in [[Exodus]]<Ref>[[Exodus 2]]:5 "And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash [herself] at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river’s side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it."</Ref> but which Pharaoh and who was she?
The daughter of Pharaoh was given by Jewish writers the title of ''Bithiah''(  בַּת־פַּרְעֹה bat-yah) literally, the ''daughter of God''. They say that this was from God as reward for her actions. Supposedly, God told her: “Moses was not your son, yet you called him your son; you are not My daughter, but I call you My daughter” (Leviticus Rabbah 1:3).
The rabbis depict the daughter of Pharaoh as ''righteous'' and describe her as not following her father's wicked ways of [[idolatry]].<Ref name="Isidolatry">{{Isidolatry}}</Ref> She was considered a ''proselyte''<Ref>Proselyte a person who has converted from one opinion, [[religion]], or party to another.</Ref> and therefore despised by some of the [[Factions at the altar|factions]] of the [[priest]] class.
The Four Daughters of God in medieval religious writings are a personification of the virtues of Truth, Righteousness or Justice, Mercy, and Peace. These are the [[elements]] of [[The Way]] of Christ which include the "[[weightier matters]]" of [[Jesus]] was the [[Christ]] which is key to understand the mission and purpose of of [[Moses]] and his conflict with Pharaoh, which was the [[Christian conflict]] with [[Rome]].

There are numerous theories that give reasonable and  [http://www.bible.ca/archeology/bible-archeology-exodus-date-1440bc.htm plausible scenarios] as to who the daughter of Pharaoh was who drew Moses from the water.
Some assert  that they "are able to precisely pinpoint the Exodus of 1446 with the 18th year of Pharaoh Thutmoses III" [http://www.bible.ca/archeology/bible-archeology-exodus-route-18th-dynasty-chronology-list-pharaohs-hyksos-ahmose-hatshepsut-amuntotep-thutmose-I-II-III-hatshepsut-akhenaten-tutankhamun-hebrews-israel-moses-egypt.jpg and offer at least "16 reasons why Thutmoses III is the Exodus Pharaoh."] using the Low Egyptian chronology as proposed by A.

* "'''Hatshepsut''' was the first female pharaoh of Egypt. She reigned between 1473 and 1458 B.C. Her name means “foremost of noblewomen.” Her rule was relatively peaceful and she was able to launch a building program that would see the construction of a great temple at Deir el-Bahari at Luxor."

This would mean Thutmoses I, the father of Hatshepsut, the first pharaoh of the time of Moses and not anyone in the 19th dynasty era of Rameses II. Because archeologists generally desire to dismiss the [[Exodus]] as a Bible myth, they actually chose any variant of their accepted timeline as incorrect.

Hatshepsut as the daughter of Thutmose I who left no other legitimate heir to the throne was actually able to reign as the acting Pharaoh and was even given or assumed the title of ''Mose''. “Moshe” can mean in Egyptian the “son of” and Hatshepsut was a daughter of Pharaoh who made herself as a "son" so that she should reign in Egypt and change the way many wanted Egypt to be fie a short time.  


Some assert that they "are able to precisely pinpoint the Exodus of 1446 with the 18th year of Pharaoh Thutmoses III."
Hatshepsut had a decidedly different approach to the [[social welfare]] of the people which was a part of the "duty" of [[religion]] overseen by the priesthood because they were in charge of the temple granaries which were the "[[reserve fund]]" in Egypt.

The dependence upon the [[social welfare]] offered by the Pharaoh of Egypt and Joseph was what brought the people of Egypt into a [[corvee]] of [[bondage]]. While Hatshepsut  was kind and encouragingly generous the Tutmoses who more authoritarian and the one who followed was decidedly worse.


This would mean Thutmoses I, the father of Hatshepsut, named Moses and not anyone in the 19th dynasty era of Rameses II. Because archeologists generally dismiss the exodus as a Bible myth, they actually chose any variant of the correct,

Moses

Moses is a prophet in Abrahamic religions. According to the Hebrew Bible, he was a former Egyptian prince, possibly even the rightful Pharaoh of Egypt who later in life became a religious leader and lawgiver, to whom the authorship of the Pentateuch or Torah is traditionally attributed.

When Who and Why

James Ussher dates Moses' birth at 1571 BC. Yet we know that Rabbinical groups caculatetd the date closer to 1391. Moses celebrated as the lawgivers is memorialized in marble over the chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives in the United States Capitol, "Moses (c. 1350–1250 B.C.). Jerome sees the date as closer to the earlier date of 1592 BC.

All these dates and many more are debatable. But who fits the drama of the times and thinking of Moses?

Hatshepsut lived from 1507–1458 BC and had no male heir but only an adopted who should have become Thutmose III instead of an illegitimate stepson but chose not too.

He chose to set the people free rather than rule over them with riches.

The Conflict

The conflict with the rulers like Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, and the Caesar's of the world who were the Fathers of the earth was personified in the character of Moses and his teachings.

The temptations of Christ and His teachings again brought light to The Way of liberty under God but also a Christian conflict until Rome and its unrighteous mammon failed.

This liberty under God is called Kingdom of God and simply means the right to be ruled by the God of heaven through your heart and mind through personal revelation under the Law of Nature rather than to be ruled by men and the gods many who men often give power to by forms of consent through political and economic systems which ultimately depend upon force, fear, and fealty.

In the Kingdom of God man has access to his natural God given rights but he can only maintain those rights through diligent practices[1] of Fervent Charity, faith, and love toward their fellow man. In other words he must care about the rights, life and family of his neighbor as much as his own.

Moses said

Moses said we were to love our neighbor as ourselves[2] and we were not to oppress[3] the people in our midst.[4] We were even to give drink to our enemy.

The prohibition by Moses and the prophets and not oppressing neighbors, the poor, or strangers is such a common theme there words at least five different words expressing that oppression: lachats[3], yanah[5], ashaq[6], daka[7], and daka[7]. There are other words like gazal[8] that are not translated oppression but spoil, take away, rob, pluck, consume, exercised, and force which means much the same as oppress.

Moses and Jesus were in agreement and are seen together with Elijah in the New Testament. Jesus told the pharisees if they had known Moses they would have known Him. They would have also known that the institution of Corban of the Pharisees under Herod would make the word of God to none effect.

Over the centuries some Jews altered and distorted the teachings of Moses through their twisted translations, private interpretations, sophistry, and false religion. Their eyes were darkened[9] because of their civil tables[10] filled with the free bread and dainties of rulers who exercise authority plucking off your neighbor what you wish to consume. These are the cities of blood.

The idea of people not being able to see because they chose to be workers of iniquity oppressing their neighbor or the stranger for gain is a vey common theme of scripture.[9]

By the time of John the Baptist and Jesus arrived the pharisees and Herod were walking in darkness though they said they could see the truth. They were making the word of God to none effect through their scheme of Corban which no longer was exclusively freewill offerings as intended by Moses. Because they would not see the error of their way forcing contributions from their fellow man they could not see the true light of Christ.[11]

The people in Judea and all over the Roman Empire were again using force through these covetous practices of the welfare state that brings the people back into the bondage of Egypt and makes leaders tyrants. Those willing to see this would see again and be guided by the light of Christ.[11]

The people of Israel had rejected God back in the days of Samuel when they elected to have a man rule over them like the other nations of the world. Hundreds of years later the Romans would through off the Tarquinian kings and establish a Republic in some ways similar to early Israel. They would both eventually return to the idea of a Ruler, or Emperor, a chief executive officer, whose power would grow over time as the people degenerated through their dependence upon social welfare programs like the Corban of the Pharisees and a plethora of benefits offered by the state.

Throughout history the people of the world have sought to elect politicians like Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, and the Caesar who call themselves as benefactors but became the Fathers of the earth.

Through their own sloth they follow the Covetous Practices that makes men nothing more than Human Resources and a surety for debt. That debt grows until it curses their children with a bondage they cannot escape and all hope would be lost accept for the strategy of seeking the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. You cannot be biting one another and expect not to be devoured one of another, especially in a social democracy.

"The history of the birth of freedom... Are men to be ruled by God's law, or the whims of dictator..? Are men property of the state? Or are they free souls under God? This same battle continues throughout the world today. " The 1956 movie “The Ten Commandments.” -Cecil B. DeMille (Producer/Director). Time 2:10


Moses was a real individual. He is hard to identify in history because of the false understanding of the ancient text due to sophistry and false religion. But also due to modern archaeology's confusions concerning the historic time lines which have been distorted through an entrenched academia.

There are those who question the timeline and chronological narrative of history. Tim Mahoney's Patterns of Evidence: The Exodus raises many questions with the help of the Dr David Rohl a British Egyptologist and former director of the Institute for the Study of Interdisciplinary Sciences (ISIS). The discoveries of the The Amarna tablets and the excavation of the Middle bronze era site at Avarise among many other discoveries open the door to many possibilities to explain the story of Moses and this peculiar people that followed him into the wilderness.

The important thing to not lose sight of in the examination of these historical possibilities is the spirit of what liberty under God really looks like and what is righteous and what is unrighteous.


Hatshepsut


We know that a daughter of Pharaoh adopted Moses and gave him a name as she was called בַּת bath פַּרְעֹה parôh in Exodus[12] but which Pharaoh and who was she?

The daughter of Pharaoh was given by Jewish writers the title of Bithiah( בַּת־פַּרְעֹה bat-yah) literally, the daughter of God. They say that this was from God as reward for her actions. Supposedly, God told her: “Moses was not your son, yet you called him your son; you are not My daughter, but I call you My daughter” (Leviticus Rabbah 1:3).

The rabbis depict the daughter of Pharaoh as righteous and describe her as not following her father's wicked ways of idolatry.[13] She was considered a proselyte[14] and therefore despised by some of the factions of the priest class.

The Four Daughters of God in medieval religious writings are a personification of the virtues of Truth, Righteousness or Justice, Mercy, and Peace. These are the elements of The Way of Christ which include the "weightier matters" of Jesus was the Christ which is key to understand the mission and purpose of of Moses and his conflict with Pharaoh, which was the Christian conflict with Rome.


There are numerous theories that give reasonable and plausible scenarios as to who the daughter of Pharaoh was who drew Moses from the water.

Some assert that they "are able to precisely pinpoint the Exodus of 1446 with the 18th year of Pharaoh Thutmoses III" and offer at least "16 reasons why Thutmoses III is the Exodus Pharaoh." using the Low Egyptian chronology as proposed by A. K. Kitchen.

  • "Hatshepsut was the first female pharaoh of Egypt. She reigned between 1473 and 1458 B.C. Her name means “foremost of noblewomen.” Her rule was relatively peaceful and she was able to launch a building program that would see the construction of a great temple at Deir el-Bahari at Luxor."

This would mean Thutmoses I, the father of Hatshepsut, the first pharaoh of the time of Moses and not anyone in the 19th dynasty era of Rameses II. Because archeologists generally desire to dismiss the Exodus as a Bible myth, they actually chose any variant of their accepted timeline as incorrect.

Hatshepsut as the daughter of Thutmose I who left no other legitimate heir to the throne was actually able to reign as the acting Pharaoh and was even given or assumed the title of Mose. “Moshe” can mean in Egyptian the “son of” and Hatshepsut was a daughter of Pharaoh who made herself as a "son" so that she should reign in Egypt and change the way many wanted Egypt to be fie a short time.

Hatshepsut had a decidedly different approach to the social welfare of the people which was a part of the "duty" of religion overseen by the priesthood because they were in charge of the temple granaries which were the "reserve fund" in Egypt.

The dependence upon the social welfare offered by the Pharaoh of Egypt and Joseph was what brought the people of Egypt into a corvee of bondage. While Hatshepsut was kind and encouragingly generous the Tutmoses who more authoritarian and the one who followed was decidedly worse.


Romans 8:14-16 "For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the daughters of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to daughter-ship."

Thutmoses

Thutmosis III is counted as the sixth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty. It is said that Thutmose III, despite his questionable birth, ruled Egypt for almost 54 years and his reign is usually dated from 28 April 1479 BC to 11 March 1425 BC. This would mean that he took the throne at 2 years of age. For at least 22 years of his reign, his stepmother and aunt, Hatshepsut, who was the true blood line of Pharaoh and who was named and accepted as the pharaoh by many who loved her seemed to be in control.
It is speculated by some that Thutmosis III was an illegitimate Pharaoh of Egypt and at the time usurped the adopted son of Hatshepsut who chose to become a Moses to those people who sought liberty under God.[15]

The name "Thut" was written in hieroglyphics, but the name Moses is written in Hebrew and Greek. He appears to be heir to the throne of Egypt through adoption. But Moses like Jesus would not rule over the people. His desire was to set them free. They would have to first repent, think differently.

  • "Thutmose II (1493 or 1492 to 1479 BC). Alfred Edersheim proposes in his "Old Testament Bible History" that Thutmose II is best qualified to be the pharaoh of Exodus based on the fact that he had a brief, prosperous reign and then a sudden collapse with no son to succeed him." But Thutmosis III is the son of Thutmose II by a concubine.
Manetho's Epitome[16] is a debated topic among Egyptologists because of the small number of surviving documents for his reign of either 13-years or a shorter 3-4 year reign due to the minimal amount of scarabs issued during that period.
  • Hatshepsut was a decedent of Amenhotep I by way of Tutmoses I as princess Nefure but became known as Queen Hatshepsut[17] married her half-brother[18], Thutmose II.[19] There was another Neferure (or Neferura) who was also an Egyptian princess of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt and the daughter of pharaohs, Hatshepsut and that Thutmose II.[20]
If Moses was drawn from the water by Hatshepsut and adopted as her son, and Thutmose III was only the son of Thutmoses II by a concubines, then Moses may have had a better claim to the throne and "let my people go" has a new more significant meaning.
  • "Thutmose III (sometimes read as Thutmosis or Tuthmosis III, Thothmes in older history works, and meaning "Thoth is born") was the sixth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty." An yet illegitimate.[20]
Thutmosis (dhwty-ms possibly pronounced Djehuty), usually translated into something like "Born of the god Thoth".[21]

Thoth is an approximation used by the Greeks.[22]

A modern Egyptologist might say Djehuty. In hieroglyphs scribes might write the name in full or in an abbreviated form.[21]

Senmut (or Senenmut) has been a candidate for the Biblical Moses. Senenmut was an 18th dynasty ancient Egyptian architect, ancient astronomer and government official. His name translates literally as "mother's brother" referring to his close relationship to Hatshepsut.

There is speculation that Senenmut as a trusted servant of Hatshepsut, since there was no "brother", but it is also possible based on some of his extensive knowledge and accomplishments[23] that he was actually Moses the trusted servant of God and mankind.

There is evidence that Senenmut disappeared from Egypt at the same time as Moses went into the desert.[24]

Or possibly Senenmut, who was clearly a genius,[25] was a mentor to Moses whose political policies would have been compatible with Hatshepsut.

Names were titles with meanings and could change as your status or relationships changes. Darius, Caesar, Pharaoh, even Nimrod are titles or offices rather than proper names.

His memorials were heavily vandalized during the reign of Thutmose III during his latter campaigns to eradicate all trace of Hatshepsut's memory.

Thutmose III was not of royal blood but the son of a concubine of an unfaithful husband whose own birth was in question. He was put into power by ambitions of men who sought power in the absence of a male heir.

He had despised and opposed Hatshepsut whose humanitarian policies differed greatly from his his military desire of conquest.

Was Moses the rightful heir, the righteous TuthMosis to the throne of Egypt who came to set the people free if they would repent and seek to serve the LORD by caring for one another in charity rather than through the forced sacrifice or Corban of Pharaoh in the Bondage of Egypt?

  • The message of the prophets was for all who have ears to hear. They have desired that we seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness through voluntary government of love by charity alone. Those who hear and act upon that spiritual revelation of the Christ, the anointing King, are Israel because God and His kingdom "prevails" within them.

Two Wives

Did Moses have more than one wife?

Numbers 12:1 ¶ And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman. 2 And they said, Hath the LORD indeed spoken only by Moses? hath he not spoken also by us? And the LORD heard [it].

Nothing in the Bible suggests that Moses was married to these two women simultaneously. We do not know the name of the Cushite, or Ethiopian, women and the word we see translated "married"[26] is not the normal Hebrew word for married.

Moses and Zipporah had been married for 40 years or more so why were his siblings suddenly protesting?

The complaint was from Mary and Aaron who were vying for power in the assembly.

But there were no kings in Israel.

If Moses did take a second wife at that time there is no reason to be sure that Zipporah was still alive since she would have been in her sixties or older. Marriage in those days was often about survival.

Yalkut Shimoni[27] says that Moses fled from Egypt first to Cush where he married and became king. Later he moved to Midia where he married Zipporah. We see in Exodus 4:20 "Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the rod of God in his hand."

The word wife in this text is singular. If there had been another Cush wife from 40 years earlier there is no reason to believe she was still alive and why don't we know her name?

The Rashi[28] interprets this verse as Zipporah and the Cushite woman was the same person. Rishi asserts that Zipporah was called "the Cushite" because of her beauty.

Others such as Ezekiel the Tragedian said that Zipporah and her father were only recent arrivals to Midia in a play dated to the second century BCE. (Exagoge 60-65).

The Himyarite Kingdom of Southern Arabia was described by Syrian writers of the fifth century as Cushites and Ethiopians. And we also know that the Beja people who inhabit the Sahara and Sudan claim descent from Cush and speak a Cushitic language. Eighteenth-century scholar Johann David Michaelis agrees with the idea that Cush was a term used to describe both sides of the Red Sea.

While every place in the Bible where polygamy was practiced there were severe consequences due to rivalry and jealousy. Moses was about giving birth to freedom where society provided the needs of the people through charity in time of want. This is what Christ was doing too with his Kingdom of God and no different than the message of John the Baptist.

It is only the Modern Christian, Jew, and Moslem who turn a blind eye[9] to their covetous practices and bite one another with an appetite for benefits and the dainties of rulers. Those masses who have become accustomed to living at the expense of others have returned the whole world to the bondage of Egypt so that the beasts of the world can go about devouring who they will.

"The history of the birth of freedom... Are men to be ruled by God's law, or the whims of dictator..? Are men property of the state? Or are they free souls under God? This same battle continues throughout the world today. " The 1956 movie “The Ten Commandments.” -Cecil B. DeMille (Producer/Director).

What makes you property of the State is your covetous practices through forms of socialism and the sloth, Wantonness and self-righteousness it feeds in you. What sets you free os to be born again in The Way of Christ. That is to heed His word and repent, seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness by coming together as He commanded, in His name through charitable sacrifice in the love of one another to attend to the weightier matters.
