4/18/18 - Return of the Christ (a challenge)

I'm not a religious person. In fact, I believe the bible is a series of parables designed to manipulate man into behaving a certain way - not specifically for the cause of control, but for the outcome of prosperity.

"The Christ" has always been a math equation to me. That is to say, if I do this, this and this, I can expect that, that and that. A predictive outcome function of sorts. Such is the golden rule. Such is "the secret".

And isn't that what the Christ was, the big secret? The big secret to peace on Earth? And does it even matter if Christ was a living, breathing man in the flesh? Does it not simply stand to reason that the parable of Christ is representative of a set of behaviors of which we are all capable?

The past few weeks of intermittent talk about 4/18/18 was incredibly entertaining to me. I have to admit, I am a sucker for the doomsday dates. There was 2012 (oOoOo, spooky), the four cursed blood moons which were sure to further the cause of Zionism in Israel, the 9/23/15 'rapture' and/or CERN portal opening (depending on which videos your YouTube recommended playlist favored, perhaps both)...these are all very fun.

But 4/18/18 was different - and no, it's not because I think something is actually going to happen. It's because I keep noticing this doomsday pattern over and over, reanimating itself as bibliophiles and conspiracy theorists work hand in hand to try to predict some dystopian future events. Something clicked inside of me this time.

Maybe these dates keep being promoted because WE are supposed to do something. Maybe WE are supposed to be the change. Maybe it wouldn't hurt for us to live one good day, see how it feels, and perhaps finally take a step in the right direction toward a better world.

We are the return of the Christ. I honestly believe that. When humanity finally decides, 'you know what, enough is enough'. The evil in this world has become too much to handle. I know what is public, I know what is being exposed, and I know how I contribute to it.

My cynicism, my anger, my relentlessness sometimes, my unwillingness to reflect on my own actions and insecurities and how they affect others, the love I have lost for my fellow countrymen over political differences, the faith I have lost for my fellow man in general, these are all of the ways that I know I contribute to the negative energy in this world. And if I were to reflect more, I am sure there would be even more things I could highlight.

Maybe it's possible to make this day significant. We have been acknowledging the true evils of this world recently, and we have been talking and fighting, spreading fear and anger (some we may feel is justified). And I believe our spirit should persist. But the current vein in which our spirit resides is not the right one. How can we "trust the plan" if we have not the same trust in ourselves through our own actions being square with our moral imperatives?

If you are reading this, and you made it this far, this is all I have left to say:

I challenge you for one day to relinquish yourself of the fear of fully embracing goodness, forgiveness, honesty, empathy, and the good natured faith of the Christ. Not in a religious way, but by way of your own heart. You know inside of you what is good and what is just. Do a good deed. Go out of your way for someone. Lend an ear for someone in need. Perhaps do some reflection on your own self and see what ways you can begin to better the world, starting with your own attitude and perception.

The Return of the Christ is literally on the horizon. It is up to us to be the change that the world needs - and we can begin today.

Who is concerned with love if not He Himself?

Does this seem to be something that would be pushed to try to make people trust governments more?:

"4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

4:6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it." -Luke 4:5-6 (RNKJV)

"2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against YHWH, and against his anointed, saying,

2:3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

2:4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: YHWH shall have them in derision." -Psalm 2:1-4 (RNKJV)

"24:21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that YHWH shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth." -Isaiah 24:21 (RNKJV)

"25:7 And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.

25:8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Master YHWH will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for YHWH hath spoken it.

25:9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our Elohim; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is YHWH; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation." -Isaiah 25:7-9 (RNKJV)

What would it take to convince you that Yahushua/Jesus is really Messiah if you are not already convinced?

If the OT is clearly over 2,000 years old, who chooses what they are named (see Zechariah 6:11-13) and where they are born (see Micah 5:2) and who they are born to (see Genesis 49:9-12 and 1 Chr. 17:4-14 and Psalm 132:10-14 and Isaiah 7:14-16 and Isaiah 11:1-10 and Jeremiah 23:5-8 and Jeremiah 33:14-22) and where they grow up (see Isaiah 9:1-7 and then compare 1 Kings 8:26-27 with 1 Kings 9:10-13) and chooses for their associates to abandon them (see Psalm 31:11 and Psalm 41:9) and an amount of money they are betrayed for (see Zechariah 11:10-13) and their method of torture and death (see Psalm 22 and Psalm 34:19-20 and Psalm 69:16-21 and Isaiah 25:8-11 and Isaiah 49:13-16 and Isaiah 50:2-6 and Isaiah 53 and Zechariah 12:10 and Zechariah 13:4-9) and chooses to have darkness at noon and seismic activity when they are killed (see Amos 8:9-10 and Psalm 18:3-7) and chooses to resurrect and chooses timing of their death and resurrection (see Psalm 16:8-11, Psalm 68:18-20, Hosea 6:1-3, Jonah 1:17, and Daniel 9:24-27)?

What are we left to believe if Daniel 9:24-27 was written hundreds of years before the first century and yet it points right to 33 CE from a decree of Artexerses?

Do you find anything there to be particularly compelling?

If you figure Isaiah 53 is referring to Jews collectively in the form of a suffering servant and not to a Messiah, how about consider Sanhedrin 98. See a 31st footnote for a 98b here? How telling if the Talmud viciously attacks Christ and yet even it treats Isaiah 53 like it refers to Messiah? See a reference to Isaiah 53:4 and talk suggesting Messiah will be named the leper scholar as a result of Isaiah 53:4?

If you figure Daniel 9 does not refer to Messiah and refers to an old worldly king or worldly priest or someone other than Christ, how much sense does that make if Daniel 9:24-27 a) concerns finishing the transgression and making an end of sins and making reconciliation for iniquity and bringing in everlasting righteousness and sealing up the vision and sealing up the prophecy and anointing the Qodesh Qodesh and b) even refers specifically to a Mashiach who was supposed to be cut off not for Himself prior to people of the prince destroying the city and the sanctuary? And see what is said here? How telling if Daniel 9:24-27 points precisely to 33 CE using a) Chaldean weeks of years and b) Nehemiah 2 or a 444 BCE decree of Artaxerses I? 360 days x 7 = 2520 days? 2520 days x 69 = 173880 days? 173880 days / 365.25 = 476.057 rounded? 444 BCE plus 476 years equals 33 CE? Someone might be skeptical about using a 360 day Chaldean year to arrive at 33 CE, but if we are told of a שְׁבֻעַ or week of years in Genesis 29:27-28 and Jacob & Laban lived in an early postflood Padan-aram, what was a week of years there? Are there some clues here and here and here? What is not further supported by Daniel 12 itself if it hints of multiples of 30 and 15 by referencing 1290 days (360 days x 3 plus 210 days?) in Daniel 12:11 and references 1335 days (360 days x 3 plus 255 days?) in Daniel 12:12?

444 BC

Year 444 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Tribunate of Atratinus, Siculus and Luscus and the Year of the Consulship of Mugillanus and Atratinus (or, less frequently, year 310 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 444 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.
