Look at what I just found for you! Newish posts by Victor Alexander. I checked out his web site to see if he had put up any new posts, as he does rather frequently (and some of the precious posts of the past have disappeared, so I try to stay up to date). At the bottom of
v-a.com/bible/ I found half a dozen new essays. Gold, dude! Er, dudette.
The first five of the dozen articles listed are links to other pages. Number six is a link to his Story of Jesus movie campaign:
http://www.v-a.com/movies/. If you have some wealthy friends, here is a movie project worthy of support (like you, Victor doesn't agree with anything I say). He could use any and all donations, large or small, to help get his movie sold at the film market in November. Buy a few books at least, everyone, and become educated in the genuine scriptures.
In these essays Alexander uses Jesus' real name, Eashoa. Read the footnote comment in the first chapter of Mark regarding this name:
http://www.v-a.com/bible/mark_1_audio.html. Gadzooks! This has changed, too, into an audio file.
I hope you are familiar with his site. Here's a few of his new essays:

America at the Crossroads
If the world came to an end today, what would
be the lessons that we've learned? This coming Presidential election will
define what type of world we've been living in, and what type of world we would like to live in --
as if we have a choice ... and we do. That's what elections are about. So what
do we choose? To live in a world we lived in? To live in a world we'd like to
define ourselves? Something new. Or perhaps we'd like to go back to the
morality of our forefathers, the writers of the Constitution. In other words,
to live according to their values of liberty and the pursuit of happiness ...
with freedom, to live and choose the faith we decide to live by. Or will we
choose to live according to the Bible?
This in a nutshell is what we as Americans must
choose this coming election. To live according to the Constitution or the
Bible. With the Constitution, we can change the laws governing us; with the
Bible we can't ... not the spiritual laws dictated by God. And we can't change
the Bible. That's why it's called the Bible. It's a contradiction in terms.
So let's say we decide to live according to the
Constitution ... we can in fact change everything, not just the laws governing
us, but the laws governing our existence. Since we will be free to change any
laws, we will create a new world, a world that did not exist today, or that
did ever exist, a brand new world, a world in which we would decide what is
right and what is wrong. Such a world would be an abomination; but not if we
decree what is moral or what is not. And here's the difference: with us the
abominable will be the new norm and the holy will be unacceptable ... because
we will have declared ourselves the arbiters of morality and justice. Such a
world would be abominable indeed. It would be total abomination.
I choose not to live in such a world. I prefer
to vote for the old world; at least I knew what was right and what was
wrong
... and everybody agreed on something. Yes, give me a world I'm
familiar with. I don't want to live in the world of science fiction;
that's alright
for children and their video games. When they grow up, they'll be able
to
distinguish between fantasy and reality. They will quickly become
acquainted
with reality when they grow up and have children.
With life there are circles, and repeating
cycles: we are born and we die, and for us Christians there is even rebirth,
to be born again with our Lord and Savior. That's why He came to the world, to
teach us about such things and to give us hope, the hope of the Kingdom of
heaven and the life everlasting.
There was one time a world without right and
wrong. It was called paradise. Adam and Eve lived in it. But there was also
Satan who lived there. He was not Satan to begin with. He was an angelic
being, tall and attractive. His attraction was the gift of God, as He had
given this quality to all His creation. But this angelic being was jealous of
the man and the woman, who knew no right and wrong; they could eat of all the
fruit in paradise, except the tree in the middle of paradise, and not die.
He thought they were too lucky, to be so
endowed by their creator to live life without sin and know no wrong. Yet he
knew of wrong, the imagined wrong that was done him: to know what was good but
not to be able to willingly do what was right. So he rebelled
and decided on his own that he would tempt Eve to eat of the fruit of the tree
that she knew was wrong to eat of.
The soon to be Satan said to her, when she
refused to eat of the fruit of that tree in the middle of paradise, "Did
He tell you that you would die if you ate of the fruit of the tree?" And,
Satan, noticed that she was truly afraid, so he continued, "You won't
die; He just doesn't want you to know what's right and wrong."
That was the first lie that Satan had told, and
it made him a liar forever -- because he would never repent of it. He had no
excuse for doing it. And that's the problem with such sins; there's no excuse
for the sin that sells your soul to the devil. Because there is no going back
from that. Once in the clutches of Satan, nobody can escape unscathed.
And of course Eashoa Msheekha knew that He
would someday have to come to the world of men and redeem Himself on their
behalf in order to undo the lie that Satan had put over on them, that they
would die if they ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge -- the knowledge
that He alone could impart to humanity in order that they could truly live
free, not just to live free to do whatever they wanted but free to follow Him
forever. This is what true freedom is all about and this is what everlasting
life is all about, after all: to live freely and to do the will of Maryah
freely, not because of the laws of men but because of the Laws of Maryah.
This was easy for Maran Eashoa Msheekha to do.
But would it be easy for us human beings to do? Well, that's why He had to
come to the world, to show us how. He would have to learn -- as a human being
-- what was it like to deal with the temptations of Satan, to suffer as a
human being, to shed tears of sadness and joy as a human being, and to die as
a human being, and through that death and subsequent resurrection to show us
that if He could resurrect Himself that He could also resurrect us.
And Satan had one more shot at tempting Eashoa,
to see if He was indeed the Msheekha prophesied by the Scriptures, which Satan
knew by heart -- he had once lived in paradise as an angel and knew what was
holy -- so he asked Eashoa the three questions, to see if he could mislead
Him.
And what were the three questions? "If
you're hungry, why don't you turn these stones into bread?"
Eashoa did not wish to resort to His heavenly
powers. If He'd wanted to do that He would've come as a ruler, even as an
emperor; but that was not His intention. He had decided that He would come
as an ordinary man, in order to feel struggle as an ordinary man, so He said,
"Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that issues from the
mouth of Allaha." Every man and woman would have to face the same
hardships and fight the same temptations of Satan.
Satan's next question was, "If you're the
Son of Allaha jump from this parapet and the angels of Allaha would intercept
you; you won't even injure your foot."
And Eashoa turned away from Satan without even
a reply. Eashoa would like us also to turn away from Satan and the temptations of
evil people.
Satan's third question was, "If you would only
bow down to me, I'll give you all the riches of the world and their
glory." Satan pointed to the glittering lights of civilization below.
Again Eashoa refused to heed Satan's warning,
"It is written that you shall listen only to Allaha and to serve Him
faithfully."
As Eashoa was quoting him the Scriptures -- to
remind Satan that if he were going to quote Scriptures, then he should adhere
to them himself -- He ignored him, He turned around and walked away from him.
And Satan disappeared into the abyss that he came from.
We must also stay away from Satan's haunts, and
remind evil people that we're not interested in their riches and glitter. What
we want is what shines in heaven.
When Eashoa walked the earth, He took His
Disciples on the path of righteousness. He taught them how to avoid the
pitfalls of wealthy men, whose wealth was not earned honestly, men who were
corrupt and prone to commit crime at every turn. He said, "Go to those
people who love you for what you are, and shake the dust of your feet when you
leave the houses of those who want to corrupt you with food and rewards."
We seek the rewards that Eashoa has in store
for us. We might not be able to do as well as the original Disciples and
Apostles, but we must try, we must run the course as best as we can, and leave
the rest to Maryah, who will help us every step of the way.
___________________________________________
The Revelation of the Milta
Our universe began with what scientists call an explosion.
The explosion was seen as a bright light, out of which there emerged what we see as an immense world of stars and planets.
It happened 13.7 billion years ago. This is our reality, which we perceive
according to our human senses.
This knowledge came to us from years of study and
observation of the universe. It is secular knowledge, because there was an
earlier collection of stories regarding how the world was created six thousand
years ago. Modern science arrived at its conception of the universe only
recently, so learned men had to find some other way to explain how the
world began, and all they had was their eyes -- there were no telescopes.
One of the earliest and most
influential body of knowledge was the Bible, a series of Scriptures
that were gathered by men to reveal the truth about that first light that
shined on the universe billions of years ago.
The Bible begins with the creation of our world in simple
terms. It depicts the birth of Adam and Eve as two human beings in Paradise --
a perfect world where the first man and the first woman live in harmony with
all the other creatures. In this world no one grows old or dies. All knowledge
is good. There is one ruler, who is portrayed as Allaha (God in English.) The word itself, in
the language of the Scriptures, represents the Light that was the spark of the
world. 'Al' means 'over' and 'la-ha' means the flame; in other
words, 'Above the Light,' 'Above the Flame,' 'Above All,' or 'The Creator.'
The original Light was depicted as the ruler of
Paradise. This is what the word 'Allaha' means. This word is different in
almost all the languages of the world, because it is described according to
the cultural perspective of the people that believe in the whole concept of
'creation.'
According to modern science and the Western perspective, the
universe was created by the explosion of anti-matter: the concentration of
matter in a space so dense that even all light is extinguished, the particles
of matter exist in complete stillness, and the temperature is zero. This
concentrated mass of matter (the end result of older star having collapsed) is so great that it must explode; it is simply too
much pressure for it to exist in a complete state of inertia. The nature of this matter
dictates that it will explode again and shoot out into the empty space and fill it
with magnificent stars, planets and all forms of celestial bodies.
However, the story of creation in the Bible is told in
simple terms. It was intended as an introduction to the fundamental knowledge
about the Creator and the World that He created, a knowledge that can be
understood by men of olden times. This knowledge has stood the
test of time: many religions use the same method of describing the beginning
of knowledge about humanity and the world.
What is unique about Christianity is that this knowledge is
revealed only by the Milta (the Manifestation) of the Son of Allaha (the Son of
God), and this revelation is intended to clarify to humanity certain truths
that must be observed so as the Light may reveal the purpose of this
knowledge. Therefore, in strict theological terms, the Truth can only be
revealed by The Light, and Eashoa Msheekha is that Light; i.e., He is the
Revelation of the Truth. Moreover, He is the Truth, the Resurrection and the Life, because He
created everything and He taught humanity everything, and without Him.
This knowledge begins in the first chapter of Genesis, the
first Book of the Scriptures. This knowledge, in a perfect world, does not
change; but once it is breached, there are consequences.
There is growth, and
knowledge must define the changes that take place with growth and the
proliferation of life. Ultimately there is death. This knowledge must
explain
the consequences of growth and maturation. Nothing that is born will
live forever
in this world. Life is cyclical: birth, growth, maturation, aging and
death.
The Scriptures traced the whole process. Also, with
knowledge there is right and wrong. So the Bibles of various peoples took up
the task of explaining the doctrines of faith. For men to live in peace and
freedom, the religious books of various nations had to follow the laws that
emerged from them.
This continues to be the dilemma of who is right and who is wrong. But
there is something missing. Where is the Resurrection? There has to be
something more, for the process to repeat itself. There has to be Hope.
Eashoa Msheekha came to the world to reveal the laws that were given to
Him by the Father, the Creator of the universe. He was opposed by those who
felt that the laws of Allaha were given to them for safeguarding. This view
persists to this day.
But according to the Messiah who appeared two thousand years ago, He was the only Milta of
Maryah Allaha, His only representative on earth and in heaven. Human beings
cannot be the representatives of the Creator, because their world is always
changing and evolving -- including their morality, as things change and
various peoples assume power. Knowledge of the world is always in flux. It
must adapt itself to changes in nature. It must allow for the overwhelming
political changes. Otherwise there will be chaos.
But with Maryah (the Lord) there is only one morality and
one source of power, which is unchanging and eternal. His knowledge cannot be assumed by men;
His knowledge is only given when He is in direct control of it.
Moreover, Maryah's position can only be expressed through His Triune nature: He
is the Milta of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. So He is coming from
the position of absolute power -- not that His power is oppressive. It is rather
liberating and benevolent. He represents true freedom and genuine hope.
The first knowledge of the Scriptures that began with Adam
and Eve, which was corrupted by the desire to know what was right and wrong, in
variance to what the Creator had intended, this knowledge had to be revealed
by the Milta of Maryah Allaha. This was the role that Eashoa Msheekha was to
play. From the beginning it was an absolute necessity.
So everything is not just right and wrong; there is the
third element, which is what Eashoa Msheekha offered humanity when He came to the
world; there is the knowledge according to His purpose. He decides everything
until everything is revealed. To the end He remains the only Milta of Maryah
Allaha. All knees shall bend. He shall remain supreme, and all those who
follow Him will not perish; they will live eternally with Him.

Jesus was not a prophet
If you can't deal with the word "Allaha," because
it reminds you of 'Allah,' then you can't deal with the Milta either; now
you're at an impasse.
But going back to the word 'Allaha' -- if you think it's
another word for 'God', you're now dealing with a totally different problem.
The word Allaha came first. This is the first word
describing the Creator -- the first linguistic designation for the word 'God'
in its modern form -- the original concept of Allaha is not the same as
the modern concept of 'God.'
The original concept of 'Allaha', which appeared about six
thousand years ago, was a reflection on the wondrous existence of the world,
with its stars and celestial bodies resplendent in the night sky, the appearance
of the sun on the horizon in the mornings, its warmth and the affect it had on
the plants, and the flowering of the earth as a result of it -- everything
really that was observed in nature filled the hearts and minds of early man with the wonder of being a human being.
But going back again, the word 'God' is more of a theological concept for
modern man. Religious people mostly speak of God. God created the heaven and
the earth, God blessed man with certain gifts, God was not pleased at certain
things men did, etc. God became a word designating a higher being, a higher
power, a figure
that existed above in a spiritual sense; and in order to speak to God, men
would climb a mountain and approach God with trepidation. Moses climbed the
mountain where God spoke to him. Even other religions
think along those lines -- a mountain, a high place designated to provide
reverence and the possibility for communicating or receiving a certain
knowledge that would bring them peace.
Sometimes God would punish sin; other times God would turn
His face away in disapproval. All these concepts of God were recorded by
various religions and passed on from generation to generation.
But when Eashoa Msheekha (Jesus the Messiah) appeared two
thousand years ago, there was a change in the perception of these concepts.
Eashoa Msheekha was different from other religious leaders. He did not appear
as a prophet -- although He was considered to be a prophet by some of the
people at the time. Eashoa had to explain to His Disciples that He was not a
prophet.
He was the Msheekha. The word in Aramaic means 'The Anointed One.'
But the word 'anointed' in those times could be a reference to the
anointing by Allaha, but there was also the anointing by men.
Anointing was an act of blessing someone,
blessing them with a mission perhaps or giving them a certain
position. It meant different
things to different people.
When Eashoa Msheekha spoke about His own anointing, the
anointing that was
from Allahoota (Godhood -- a Godhood that He shared with the Father and the
Holy Spirit.) A thousand years before, the Hebrew Patriarchs spoke of
anointing also. It was a ceremonial ritual that designated someone for a
certain task.
But the word 'Msheekha" was used by Eashoa only in
reference to His own anointing. He was the Anointed One -- very different from
the anointing that was performed by others; (today, the word is popular among
evangelists; the anointing that is granted by some religious leaders, for
example -- it is a word that is overused even; the word just
doesn't mean the same thing anymore.
There is a difference, however, between the anointing by men and the anointing
by Allaha. The anointing by Allaha when spoken of by
Eashoa Msheekha was a special act that has relevance only to Maran Eashoa
Msheekha. He was anointed as the Milta by Maryah Allaha. So He became the Milta
Manifest from the moment He designated Himself on earth. That is the
moment that He designated and the Holy Spirit testified to it. That is when
the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit designated the new age of prophecy
to begin. It was two thousand years ago, and it was the beginning of something
new -- the old was no longer valid; it was fulfilled and it was transformed --
not into something different; but into something that was intended from the
very beginning.
Today, Christians speak of God anointing His Son and sending
Him to the world -- to sacrifice Himself on behalf of humanity, to wash their
sins, to cast out their demons, to die on their behalf, etc. This line of
reasoning leads away from what Maryah Allaha intended. The whole concept of
God and the Son becomes completely misunderstood; the more it is defined and
preached about along the lines of 'Jesus and the Father' being separate, the
further it strays from the truth.
Finally it leads to the conclusion that Jesus was only a
prophet. If Jesus was a prophet, that would mean that Jesus was
a
human being, as human beings go.
There are three major positions here, with respect to the concept
of the Godhood.
The first one is that God is a singular figure, who sits in
heaven -- the God who is manifested in the
decree of the prophets (most religions have their own prophets -- those who are
accepted by a particular religious hierarchy.)
The second one is that God is an ephemeral being who
created the universe out of nothing -- the world as we see it (that is
according to human understanding, the understanding that only the highest
order of creatures can have) -- this God is pretty much what the Western world
thinks of as the Deity.
The third one is that God is an all powerful Creator,
omniscient, and omnipresent, who sent His Son Jesus to the world to die as a
sacrifice for humanity -- the familiar story of the Christian Bible.
All these three positions are at variance with the story of
Eashoa Msheekha, that a Messiah would come and fulfill the Scriptures, and
that a new order of things would follow. This concept of Allahoota (Godhood)
is at odds with all three positions mentioned above. And it is Eashoa Msheekha
who brought this concept with Him when He came two thousand years ago.
He said that I have come to fulfill, not to change anything.
And He didn't. But He did not mean that the Scribes and Pharisees (or the
religious establishment) were according to His will. He never accepted their
interpretations of the Scriptures, or who were the true prophets and who were
the false prophets. Eashoa Msheekha never recognized any worldly order to be
the legitimate one; He was the only Truth.
Eashoa Msheekha said regarding the Scribes and Pharisees:
hear what they say regarding the Scriptures, but don't do as they do --
because they read the same Scriptures He was raised on, but it was their
interpretation of the Scriptures that was false. That was the leaven He spoke about,
when He said, "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees."
So Eashoa Msheekha introduced a new faith that was based on the original Laws given to Moses and recorded by the
Prophets in the Ancient Aramaic language. This belief system was introduced
with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It came from Jonah's Nineveh after the
Ninevites followed the way of Maryah Allaha and accepted Jonah's reluctant
preaching.
The Ninevites had invented the Ancient Aramaic language. It
came from their cuneiform writing. The prophecies that were recorded in their
language rang more true than the ones written by the Chaldean scribes of
Babylon. That is why the Scriptures were recorded in the Ninevite version of
the language. It was similar to the Babylonian language, but the Babylonian lacked the
correct pronunciation of the names of people and places -- so concepts
changed, just as they do with the Greek and Latin formulations. The Babylonian
conception of Allaha was more compatible with the Greek and Roman concept of
Godhood. This is how we
ended up using the word 'God' instead of Allaha.
And this is the reason why the Roman Church forbade the use
of the Ancient Aramaic language in which the Scriptures were recorded. All the
Popes of the Roman Church knew the Ancient Aramaic language (because they had
studied the Scriptures in this language -- some of them even corresponded in
this language,) and it was only after Constantine adopted the Christian Faith
and adopted the Greek and Latin Scriptures that the concepts of the Trinity
(the original Allahoota or Godhood) and Eashoa Msheekha's Milta disappeared from
the Scriptures -- the Scriptures that Eashoa Msheekha read from in the
synagogues of Judea.
So, again, Eashoa Msheekha introduced Himself as the Milta
of Maryah Allaha through many stages, for His followers to understand who He
was and who He represented, namely the Allahoota in its three essences -- too
difficult for some, but necessary to preserve when translating the Scriptures.
Going back to the Chaldeans of Babylon (and why did they
allow the Roman Church to reject the Ancient Aramaic Scriptures, which they
also read from,) it was for
position in the hierarchy of the Roman Church, and subsequently in the Roman
Catholic Church, where they are still the Chaldean Rite of the Catholic
Church.
So, why not call Allaha by His true name? For the sake of
position -- most people seek a position of power, financial status, or
reverential address. But what do such people give up? They give up a clear
understanding of who Eashoa Msheekha really is -- because the Ancient Aramaic
language preserves the concepts of the Milta (Manifestation,) the Trinity (Tleetayoota,)
Tla-Q'noomeh (Three Personas of the Holy Trinity) and Maranoota (Maryah Allaha
as He was referred to by His closest followers -- He was called
Maryah by His Disciples and Apostles, because He was One with the Father and
the Holy Spirit.)
Moving on to more errors related to linguistic
misconceptions.
Eashoa Msheekha was 'not the servant obedient unto death.'
This is one of
the depressing lines that longsuffering evangelists use in oppressive
societies. Yes, it is true that Eashoa Msheekha gave His life in
sacrifice, but it was His earthly life.
This line of reasoning leads the believer to a poor
understanding of the Milta. Eashoa Msheekha did not come to suffer and die,
but to die and resurrect. The prophets suffered and endured persecution, but
Eashoa came to liberate and show the way to everlasting life.
Eashoa was not merely a prophet warning people against the
'Fear of God.' He was the Manifestation of the Father urging His followers to
be 'wise as a serpent and pure as a dove.'
'To die in Jesus' has been misinterpreted; it does not mean
to die the death. It meant to be dead to the temptations of Satan. Eashoa died
so His followers could live. Yes, He died in sacrifice, but He did not want
His Children to die as well. He wanted His Children to live in this world as
well as to live eternally in heaven with Him.
Too much emphasis on His sacrifice as an 'obedient servant'
misleads the believer into thinking that the life of the follower of the
Messiah is one of continuous suffering and ultimately dying as a martyr.
Living in Jesus would have been a better way to explain the
path that Eashoa proffered to His followers.
Eashoa Msheekha represents life, not death. He was the Milta
of Maryah Allaha (the Manifestation of the Lord God.)
Eashoa Msheekha showed His followers how to pray to Allaha
(to their God.) He was not Himself praying to God. He was merely showing those
who would follow Him how to pray. This business of separating Eashoa from His
Father has led to many errors in interpretation. He was not separate from His Father; He was the
Milta (Manifestation) of the Father.
Eashoa was never separate from His Father. He was always
with the Father. He died once on the Cross as a sacrifice. His followers were
not supposed to all die on the cross.
'To pick up your cross and follow me' does not mean to
suffer and die; it means to accept the fact that the non-adherent world is
going to oppress His followers. It is to encourage His followers to deal with
adversity -- which is a common phenomenon in the word; it is learning to deal
with it that is the issue.
Eashoa wants His Children to live, and not to die -- put
very simply. He asks His Children
to endure in faith in the face of harsh treatment by the world, and to avoid being misled
into slavery and sin, and to become victims of fear.
Everything about Eashoa Msheekha is positive; there is no
negativity in Him.
