Outline Proofs for Jesus
So we have to have a definite criteria by which anyone can independently recognize the Promised One.
The clergy are the cause of the confusion in religion.
Why Manifestations
a. In the beginning of the Adamic Cycle, God had a plan by which He was going to send a number of Divine Manifestations to the world progressively, like the grades in school to educate humanity.
b. Our abstract thinking begins with the appearance of Adam
c. Let us make man in our image Gen 1:26 meaning that man would be educated to take on the spiritual qualites by turning to the Divine Manifestations which reflect God. This “our” pertains to the Manifestations.
d. God is scientific in spirit. When God made this plan to send these teachers, He designated when they were going to come, what their names would b, where they were going to appear, and what they were going to teach when they came. These four things are known as name, address, date and profession.
e. God is scientific about the coming of the Manifestations. At the time of Adam He had already pre-named the Manifestations that would come. For example, Jesus said, “Before Abraham was, I am”, meaning that before Abraham was born in the 2100' BC, Jesus was in the plan of God. He was prophesied by the four things.
Jesus' Name
a. Isaiah 7:14, “shall call his name Immanuel” which was confirmed in a dream received by Joseph in Matthew 1:20-25
b. Jesus is the same as the aramaic word “Joshua”. Jesus also has the same meaning as the Hebrew Immanuel, which means “God with us” The reason Joseph used the Greek word “Jesus” in place of the Hebrew word “immanuel” is that the prophecy was given by Isaiah in the Hebrew language 742 years previous.
c. God is with us right here in essence-- He pervades the entire universe, but the Manifestation is the mirror that reflects God to us and causes God to be come manifest. His name is called Jesus because He was the one that wwas going to reflect God.
Jesus' Address
a. Micah 5:2 names Bethlehem as place that the ruler of Israel will appear.
b. The Messiah is a ruler, as the word “Messiah” means “a male lineal descendant of King David that is anointed” The prophecy states that this person will be of the tribe of Judah-- which is the tribe of David. Although Mary was of the tribe of Levi, Jesus' father Joseph was of the tribe of Judah.
Jesus' Date
a. Daniel foretells when Jesus shall appear:
“Seventy weeks of years are decreed concerning your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy one.
Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built a gain with squares and moat, but in a troubled time. And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary... And he shall ma ke a strong covenant with many for one week. (Dan 9:24-27)
b. Here it says that from the order to restore and build Jerusalem to the time that the Messiah will be cut off is going to be 70 weeks or actually 70 weeks of years. In 70 weeks we have 490 days.
a. Each day of the Lord equals a year according to Ex 4:6, Num 14:34
b. The order to restore and build Jerusalem was given in 457BC see Ezra 7
c. 490 – 457 = 34 AD when Jesus was martyred.
d. This date is also divided into a prophecy of 7 weeks, 62 weeks and 1 week. 49 years = time to rebuild jerusalem. 62 weeks is 434 years which takes us to 27 AD which then begins the final 7 years or week that Jesus established a firm covenant as in Dan 9:27.
e. We divide the last week into two periods of 3.5 years since there is a division in the middle of the week, the middle of the seven days or seven years. The beginning of of the week is the time when John the Baptist, the forerunner of Jesus, started baptizing. After 3.5 years he baptized Jesus, and this caused the sacrifice in the Temple to cease, because the perfect sacrifice Jesus had come.
Part II
Christ
a. Christ and Messiah have the same meaning: “An anointed male lineal descendant of King David”. Paul says “Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh.” (Romans 1:3-4). The “seed” of david is a sperm-- May had an ovum. Therefore, Jesus was physically the son of David through the sperm of His father Joseph.
b. Paul says that Jesus was only “declared to be the son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness.” Jesus was only spiritually declared or designated the son of God.
c. The genealogy of Jesus back to David given in both the book of Luke and Matthew is through Joseph, not Mary (see Luke 3:23; Matthew 1:16)
d. The reason the Christians only believe in one Messiah is they deify Jesus.
e. There are two Messiahs according to the Bible, a suffering Messiah (Isa 53) and a reigning Messiah (Zech 14; Isaiah 9:6-7)
f. According to Psalm 89 David's throne is a kingship which will always continue—there will always be a male lineage descendant of David seated on his throne.
g. Jesus denied being the reigning Messiah: “My Kingship is not of this world. If my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not of this world” (John 18:36). Baha'u'llah was descended from the Davidic line. Two Christs are prophesied.
h. John the Baptist was the return of Elijah, Jews denied Jesus based on Elijah had not returned but he had symbolically in John (Matt 11:14). John was the one prophesied by Isaiah 40:3.
I. Jesus did not resurrect after three days, the belief in Him did.
Pagan Christianity
a. The paganism of a triune God is derived from the first Babylonian empire, led by Nimrod who was a descendant of Noah and became a strong man after the floods.
b. Originally Nimrod was a believer in the One God, that is why he was called Lucifer--”light bringer”. In Isaiah 14:12 it is recorded he became a disbeliever “How art though fallen, O Lucifer, son of the morning”. We get the word Satan from the word “Saturn”-- the star of Nimrod.
c. Nimrod re-established star worship.
d. At the time that Nimrod's empire was becoming corrupt, Shem arose who is also known as Melchizedek, a son of Noah. He became aware of the violation of the revelation of Adam by Nimrod and had the 72 religious judges of Egypt order a verdict against Nimrod. Nimrod was killed and pieces of his body were sent throughout his empire. One sent to his wife Semiramis who decided to make Nimrod a god and became pregnant claiming it was Nimrod that impregnated her by the Holy Spirit, when the child was born she said he was the divine incarnation of his father Nimrod, the child's name was Bar-Nin in Egypt he is called Horus, Osiris is Nimrod and his mother was Isis (Semiramis). Semiramis worshipped a sea god as well. Nimrod became identified with the Philistine fish god, Dagon. The leader of the Nimrodian cult was known as Pontificus Maximus. The Pontificus Maximus Nebachadnezzar put the Judeans into captivity. His empire was followed by the kingdom of Pergamum in Turkey (see Rev 2:12-13). Eventually the seat ended up in Imperial Rome. Constantine taking on of Christianity integrated paganism with Catholicism. In 325 at the Council of Nicea triune paganism became official church doctrine. In 385 Gratian passed on the pontificus maximus to the pope Damasus.
