=== Temple Granaries ===


The way of Moses and Christ sets the [[captive]] free.
There was grain at the [[temples]] of [[Sumer]], [[Egypt]], and [[Rome]]. The Mesopotamian civil system of government like Sumer and Ishtar has been described as "theocratic [[socialism]]." All [[socialism]] is ''theocratic'' because they all have "[[gods|ruling judges]]". The center of the systems of  Mesopotamia were their government institutions of their civil [[temples]] which provided food supplies that were divided among the needy.  


Egypt had its temple granaries<Ref>[[Exodus 34]]:26 "The first of the [[firstfruit]]s of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk." Rameses: "I warn you Moses, that the temple grain belongs to the gods." Moses: "What the gods can digest will not sour in the belly of a slave." ''The Ten Commandments'' (1956)</Ref> which had been filled during the 7 good years predicted by Joseph. That is what brought the people into the [[bondage of Egypt]] where a portion of their labor belonged to a centralized state government. That was the process. The granaries were kept filled with the [[tribute]] required from everyman's labor through [[taxation]]. Tax dollars fueled those governments but [[tithing]] and [[freewill offerings]] would give life to the nation of Israel.
This redistribution was managed by a class of bureaucratic [[priest]]s.<Ref>The model of these [[citi-states|proto-states]] are seen in modern governments where power is increasingly centralized by the people becoming more and more dependent upon the [[Welfare State]] and its forms of [[civil religion]] which compelled contributions of its [[idiotes|registered members]] with the promise of [[entitlements]] providing some form of [[free bread]] or [[social welfare]] or what has been called the [[dainties]] of these rulers.</Ref>


The reason they went into [[bondage]] was that they would not hear the anguish cries of their brother when they conspired to throw him into a pit and sell him into servitude.<Ref>Genesis 42:21 ¶  And they said one to another, We [are] verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us. 22  And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.</Ref> Moses system required that you not only hear the cries of anguish but you act upon those cries with [[freewill offerings]]. It was a process of taking back your responsibilities in the practice of pure religion where you are fired up with [[love]] for one another and not the [[strange fire]] which is [[adultery|adulterous]] and unrighteous.
=== Faith of Abraham ===


Rome also had granaries near their [[temples]] to provide [[welfare]] through a system of [[free bread]]. At one time these systems were also filled with freewill offerings and ministered by their priests. [[Julius Caesar]] who had once been the high priest of the temple of Jupiter (''Flamen Dialis'').<Ref> The Flamen Dialis(Diespiter was the Old Latin form of the name Jupiter) was officially ranked second in the ranking of the highest Roman priests in the ''ordo sacerdotum'' (between the ''Rex Sacrorum'' and the Flamen Martialis, Flamen Quirinalis) and [[Pontifex maximus]]. He would be [[Emancipatio|emancipated]] from the control of his father, and became [[sui juris]].</Ref> became a general invading Gaul. With the spoils of his conquest which included selling women and children into the lucrative slave trade he was able to fund the temple's welfare system with the blood and lives of the people of Gaul.
Even in the days of [[Abraham]] the [[altars]] of [[clay and stone]] were not piles of rock and clay  but the method and means by which people of [[faith]] could bind themselves in [[social bonds]] according to the [[perfect law of liberty]].  


Instead of arresting him for his war crimes and shunning him for his covetousness the people would close their eyes and sear their [[conscience]] giving the [[Caesar]]s the title of "'''[[Son of God]]'''".
Moses was teaching the people this revolutionary alternative through a system of freedom which was a voluntary [[network]] of [[fervent charity]] which would also to be promoted by the [[Doctrines of Jesus]].  


Moses was teaching the people that the [[Legal charity]] of the [[Welfare State]] will always [[degenerate]]s the [[masses]] while empowering [[rulers]] and drawing in the spirit of [[tyrants]]. The process of Moses and his system of sacrifices by individual [[power of choice]] ''drew'' men to God through their system of [[Corban]] by [[freewill offerings]].
The way of [[Cain]], [[Nimrod]], [[Pharaoh]], [[Caesar]],  and others makes men slaves to tyrants and runs toward evil,<Ref>[[Proverbs 1]]:16  For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed [[blood]].</Ref>corruption<Ref>[[2 Peter 2]]:10 ¶  But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the [[lust]] of uncleanness, and [[2706|despise]](''think little or nothing of'') [[2963|government (kuriotes dominion)]]. Presumptuous [are they], selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. 11  Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. 12  But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; 13  And shall receive the [[reward of unrighteousness]], [as] they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14  Having eyes full of [[adultery]], and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with [[covetous practices]]; [[cursed children]]:
15  Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of [[Balaam]] [the son] of Bosor, who loved the [[wages of unrighteousness]]; 16  But was rebuked for his [[iniquity]]: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17  These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18  For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] [[wantonness]], those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19  While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in [[bondage]]. 20  For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the [[world]] through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21  For it had been better for them not to have known [[the way]] of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.</Ref>, and death<Ref>[[Romans 6]]:23  For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] [[eternal life]] through Jesus Christ our Lord.
: Genesis 2:17  But of the [[tree of knowledge|tree of the knowledge]] of [[good and evil]], thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."</Ref>. They are the way of , [[Balaam]] and the [[Nicolaitan]]. [[The way]] of [[Abraham]], [[Moses]], and [[Christ]] will set the [[captive]] free for those who have eyes to see.


[[Augustus Caesar]] who became the first true [[emperor]] of [[Rome]] would institute a system of [[free bread]]  through its government [[temples]] which led to its decline and fall of his empire.
=== The welfare of Egypt ===


In more modern times [[FDR]] set up his [[New Deal]] and [[LBJ]] his [[Great Society]] which is presently leading to the same [[degenerate|degeneration]] of the people into [[perfect savages]] with a corresponding decline of [[social bonds]] and loss of [[liberty]].
[[Egypt]] had its temple granaries<Ref>[[Exodus 34]]:26 "The first of the [[firstfruit]]s of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk." Rameses: "I warn you Moses, that the temple grain belongs to the gods." Moses: "What the gods can digest will not sour in the belly of a slave." ''The Ten Commandments'' (1956)</Ref> which had been filled during the 7 good years predicted by Joseph. That is what brought the people into the [[bondage of Egypt]] where a portion of their labor belonged to a centralized state government. That was the process.

Tax dollars fueled those governments but [[tithing]] and [[freewill offerings]] would give life to the nation of Israel.


[[Socialism]] is the [[religion]] you get when you have no "[[Pure Religion]]".
The reason they went into [[bondage]] was that they would not hear the anguish cries of their brother when they conspired to throw him into a pit and sell him into servitude.<Ref>Genesis 42:21 ¶  And they said one to another, We [are] verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us. 22  And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.</Ref> Moses system required that you not only hear the cries of anguish but you act upon those cries with [[freewill offerings]]. It was a process of taking back your responsibilities in the practice of pure religion where you are fired up with [[love]] for one another and not the [[strange fire]] which is [[adultery|adulterous]] and unrighteous.


=== The tables of Rome ===


== Appearance in the Bible ==
Rome also had granaries near their [[temples]] to provide [[welfare]] through a system of [[free bread]]. At one time these systems were also filled with freewill offerings and ministered by their priests. [[Julius Caesar]] who had once been the high priest of the temple of Jupiter (''Flamen Dialis'').<Ref> The Flamen Dialis(Diespiter was the Old Latin form of the name Jupiter) was officially ranked second in the ranking of the highest Roman priests in the ''ordo sacerdotum'' (between the ''Rex Sacrorum'' and the Flamen Martialis, Flamen Quirinalis) and [[Pontifex maximus]]. He would be [[Emancipatio|emancipated]] from the control of his father, and became [[sui juris]].</Ref> became a general invading Gaul. With the spoils of his conquest which included selling women and children into the lucrative slave trade he was able to fund the temple's welfare system with the blood and lives of the people of Gaul.


[[Genesis 4]]:3  And in process of time it came to pass, that [[Cain]] brought of the fruit of the ground an offering <(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> unto the LORD. 4  And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering <04503>: 5  But unto Cain and to his offering <04503> he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
Instead of arresting [[Julius Caesar]] for his war crimes and shunning him for his covetousness the people would close their eyes and sear their [[conscience]] giving the [[Caesar]]s the title of "'''[[Son of God]]'''".


Genesis 32:13  And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present <(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> for Esau his brother;
Moses was teaching the people that the [[Legal charity]] of the [[Welfare State]] will always [[degenerate]]s the [[masses]] while empowering [[rulers]] and drawing in the spirit of [[tyrants]]. The process of Moses and his system of sacrifices by individual [[power of choice]] ''drew'' men to God through their system of [[Corban]] by [[freewill offerings]].


Genesis 32:18  Then thou shalt say, [They be] thy servant Jacob’s; it [is] a present <(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he [is] behind us.
=== The revolution of John===


Genesis 32:20  And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob [is] behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present <04503> that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me. 21  So went the present <04503> over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company.
[[John the Baptist]] would oppose [[Herod]] and the [[Pharisees]] who set up a system of [[Corban]] that made the word of God to none effect because they were instituting [[force]]d offerings rather than [[freewill offerings]]. He explained to the people what they needed to do.<Ref>[[Luke 3]]:11  He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.</Ref>


Genesis 33:10  And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present <04503> at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me. 11 And their father Israel said unto them, If [it must be] so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]>, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:
[[Augustus Caesar]] who became the first true [[emperor]] of [[Rome]] would institute a system of [[free bread]] through its government [[temples]] which led to its decline and fall of his empire. While his welfare programs of giving to the people were popular with the [[masses]] he was call the [[Son of God]].


Genesis 43:15  And the men took that present <04503>, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
===Another king and his ministers===


Genesis 43:25  And they made ready the present <04503> against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there. 26  And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present <04503> which [was] in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
Jesus would confirm John's approach telling that everyone needs to seek the [[kingdom of God]] and his [[righteousness]] which has never include the [[covetous practices]] of the [[world]] which is [[idolatry]]. <Ref name="Isidolatry">{{Isidolatry}}</Ref> Jesus who was also "called the [[Son of God]]" prohibited His followers to go to those systems offered by the governments of the [[world]] who [[exercise authority]] one over the other.<Ref name="exauth">{{exauth}}</Ref> Jesus was another king that did contrary to [[Caesar]].<Ref>Acts 17:7  Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, [one] Jesus.</Ref>


Exodus 29:41 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even, and shalt do thereto according to the [[meat offering]]<04503><Ref name="[[minchah]]">{{04503}}</Ref> of the morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
Paul and David warned that such systems of welfare were a "[[Snare]]" and warn about their tables of which we should not eat. Even the commandments warn of the danger of eating of those forced sacrifices.<Ref>[[Exodus 34]]:15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a [[whoredom|whoring]] after their [[gods]], and do sacrifice unto their [[gods]], and [one] call thee, and thou eat of his [[sacrifice]];</Ref>


Exodus 30:9  Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.
Proverbs warns us again and again about an [[appetite]] for the [[dainties]] of rulers and the [[one purse]] of [[socialism]].


Exodus 40:29  And he put the [[altar]] of [[burnt offering]] [by] the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Peter even said [[covet]]ing those [[benefits]] would make you "[[merchandise]]" and "[[curse children]]" with [[bondage]] and debt.


Leviticus 2:1  And when any will offer a [[meat offering]]<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> unto the LORD, his offering shall be [of] fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
== What they will not tell you ==


Leviticus 2:3  And the remnant of the meat offering [shall be] Aaron’s and his sons’: [it is] a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire. 4  And if thou bring an oblation of a [[meat offering]]<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> baken in the oven, [it shall be] unleavened cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil. 5  And if thy oblation [be] a meat offering<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]> [baken] in a pan, it shall be [of] fine flour unleavened, mingled with oil. 6  Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it [is] a meat offering<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]>. 7  And if thy oblation [be] a meat offering [baken] in the fryingpan, it shall be made [of] fine flour with oil. 8  And thou shalt bring the meat offering that is made of these things unto the LORD: and when it is presented unto the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar. 9  And the priest shall take from the meat offering a memorial thereof, and shall burn [it] upon the altar: [it is] an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD. 10  And that which is left of the meat offering [shall be] Aaron’s and his sons’: [it is] a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire. 11  No meat offering, which ye shall bring unto the LORD, shall be made with leaven: for ye shall burn no leaven, nor any honey, in any offering of the LORD made by fire.
Yet, the [[modern Church]]es turn a blind eye with a seared [[conscience]] and go under a [[strong delusion]] to believe a lie.


Leviticus 2:13  And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt. 14  And if thou offer a meat offering of thy [[firstfruit]]s unto the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat offering of thy firstfruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, [even] corn beaten out of full ears. 15  And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense thereon: it [is] a meat offering.<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh [[04503]]>
In these more modern times [[FDR]] set up his [[New Deal]] which was the old deal of [[Nimrod]]. Like the [[Caesar]]s, [[LBJ]] would press his [[Great Society]] which has [[degenerate]]d  the people into [[perfect savages]] with a corresponding decline of [[social bonds]] and a loss of [[liberty]].


Leviticus 5:13  And the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and [the remnant] shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering. 14  And this [is] the law of the meat offering: the sons of Aaron shall offer it before the LORD, before the altar. 15  And he shall take of it his handful, of the flour of the meat offering, and of the oil thereof, and all the frankincense which [is] upon the meat offering, and shall burn [it] upon the altar [for] a sweet savour, [even] the memorial of it, unto the LORD.

Latest revision as of 14:46, 3 May 2023

According to Genesis 4:3 "Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering <(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh 04503> unto the LORD" but it was still a meat offering. Were the Altars of Clay and Stone an allegory describing a social structure through freewill sacrifice to bind society with social bonds through the practice of faith, hope and charity according to the perfect law of liberty?
Were the meat offerings a part of a social safety net based on charity?

Meat or grain offering

The phrase "meat offering"[1] appears 122 times in the text. Merriam-Webster says a meat offering was "a sacrifice of food". Many translations also translate this Hebrew word minchah as grain offering. In Leviticus 2:1 we see a "meat offering<(מִנְחָ֖ה) minḥāh 04503> ... shall be [of] fine flour."

Temple Granaries

There was grain at the temples of Sumer, Egypt, and Rome. The Mesopotamian civil system of government like Sumer and Ishtar has been described as "theocratic socialism." All socialism is theocratic because they all have "ruling judges". The center of the systems of Mesopotamia were their government institutions of their civil temples which provided food supplies that were divided among the needy.

This redistribution was managed by a class of bureaucratic priests.[2]

Faith of Abraham

Even in the days of Abraham the altars of clay and stone were not piles of rock and clay but the method and means by which people of faith could bind themselves in social bonds according to the perfect law of liberty.

Moses was teaching the people this revolutionary alternative through a system of freedom which was a voluntary network of fervent charity which would also to be promoted by the Doctrines of Jesus.

The way of Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, Caesar, and others makes men slaves to tyrants and runs toward evil,[3]corruption[4], and death[5]. They are the way of , Balaam and the Nicolaitan. The way of Abraham, Moses, and Christ will set the captive free for those who have eyes to see.

The welfare of Egypt

Egypt had its temple granaries[6] which had been filled during the 7 good years predicted by Joseph. That is what brought the people into the bondage of Egypt where a portion of their labor belonged to a centralized state government. That was the process. The granaries were kept filled with the tribute required from everyman's labor through taxation. Tax dollars fueled those governments but tithing and freewill offerings would give life to the nation of Israel.

The reason they went into bondage was that they would not hear the anguish cries of their brother when they conspired to throw him into a pit and sell him into servitude.[7] Moses system required that you not only hear the cries of anguish but you act upon those cries with freewill offerings. It was a process of taking back your responsibilities in the practice of pure religion where you are fired up with love for one another and not the strange fire which is adulterous and unrighteous.

The tables of Rome

Rome also had granaries near their temples to provide welfare through a system of free bread. At one time these systems were also filled with freewill offerings and ministered by their priests. Julius Caesar who had once been the high priest of the temple of Jupiter (Flamen Dialis).[8] became a general invading Gaul. With the spoils of his conquest which included selling women and children into the lucrative slave trade he was able to fund the temple's welfare system with the blood and lives of the people of Gaul.

Instead of arresting Julius Caesar for his war crimes and shunning him for his covetousness the people would close their eyes and sear their conscience giving the Caesars the title of "Son of God".

Moses was teaching the people that the Legal charity of the Welfare State will always degenerates the masses while empowering rulers and drawing in the spirit of tyrants. The process of Moses and his system of sacrifices by individual power of choice drew men to God through their system of Corban by freewill offerings.

The revolution of John

John the Baptist would oppose Herod and the Pharisees who set up a system of Corban that made the word of God to none effect because they were instituting forced offerings rather than freewill offerings. He explained to the people what they needed to do.[9]

Augustus Caesar who became the first true emperor of Rome would institute a system of free bread through its government temples which led to its decline and fall of his empire. While his welfare programs of giving to the people were popular with the masses he was call the Son of God.

Another king and his ministers

Jesus would confirm John's approach telling that everyone needs to seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness which has never include the covetous practices of the world which is idolatry. [10] Jesus who was also "called the Son of God" prohibited His followers to go to those systems offered by the governments of the world who exercise authority one over the other.[11] Jesus was another king that did contrary to Caesar.[12]

Paul and David warned that such systems of welfare were a "Snare" and warn about their tables of which we should not eat. Even the commandments warn of the danger of eating of those forced sacrifices.[13]

Proverbs warns us again and again about an appetite for the dainties of rulers and the one purse of socialism.

Peter even said coveting those benefits would make you "merchandise" and "curse children" with bondage and debt.

What they will not tell you

Yet, the modern Churches turn a blind eye with a seared conscience and go under a strong delusion to believe a lie.

In these more modern times FDR set up his New Deal which was the old deal of Nimrod. Like the Caesars, LBJ would press his Great Society which has degenerated the people into perfect savages with a corresponding decline of social bonds and a loss of liberty.

Socialism is the religion you get when you have no "Pure Religion".

  2. ↑ The model of these proto-states are seen in modern governments where power is increasingly centralized by the people becoming more and more dependent upon the Welfare State and its forms of civil religion which compelled contributions of its registered members with the promise of entitlements providing some form of free bread or social welfare or what has been called the dainties of these rulers.

Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
