There is a story of Moses that few, if any, Christians have ever heard. This is truly a great story for mankind because it highlights some of mankind’s most important weaknesses, by way of Moses, himself. It is a story that Christ would like His entire world to learn!
In the days of Moses’ (and the thirteen tribes of Jacob/Israel’s) fabled forty-years of wandering the desert, a great many events took place that never were recorded by Moses in Christ’s Torah. The Torah is everything that Christ instructed Moses to write for all of mankind to learn and remember, forever. And yes, a great many of these Truths of God came by way of some of the failures that the Tribes showed to Christ. So, Christ had to correct the Tribes; and Christ sometimes had to punish the Tribes.
But now, please consider one notable event which transpired between Christ and Moses, but was never recorded into the Books which Moses, and his scribes, wrote. This particular event shall be detailed after a brief explanation of some of Christ’s other deeds, here in this world, besides His “most remembered” deed of being the Messiah, our “Jesus.”
SIDE NOTE by jpw – regarding Christ’s occasional visits to this world:
Very few Christians are taught that it was Christ who created this world. (If you are new to this website, just read the first 14 verses of the Gospel of John. You can read them “here.” And do understand that John did not write his Gospel until after he had returned from Heaven where he learned and wrote the Book of Revelation: this author’s point here is that John’s Gospel is decidedly more informative than the other Gospels. Also, please understand that the other Gospels were written more than 30 years BEFORE John learned, and wrote, Revelation: and almost 40 years BEFORE John wrote his Gospel.) Well, throughout the ages, Christ has made many visits to this world, using various earthly bodies. Christ was Melchizedek: who visited frequently with Abraham. Indeed, it is well documented that while Christ was using the earthly body of Melchizedek, Abraham gave his tithes directly to Christ/Melchizedek. Abraham did not burn his offerings, as he had earlier in his life; indeed, while Christ was here, Abraham handed his tithes over to Christ/Melchizedek.
Jesus speaking:
John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
John 8:57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Paul, enlightening the Hebrews about their Melchizedek/Christ/Jesus:
Hebrews 7:2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
Christ also visited Moses in the Bible. Moses even asked if he might see Christ, but Christ only allowed Moses to see His backside as He passed between a cleft in two rocks. Indeed, it was Christ’s own finger that wrote the Ten Commandments in the stones.
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.
John 8:59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
And Christians . . . regarding Moses, never forget:
Exodus 3:13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Exodus 3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
Christ also visited Jacob (in Genesis): Jacob wrestled with Christ for an entire night and would not let Christ go until Christ blessed him (Jacob).
Genesis 32:24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
Genesis 32:25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
Genesis 32:26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
Genesis 32:27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
Genesis 32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
Genesis 32:29 And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.
Genesis 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
It should be noted here that in verse 30, the word that Jacob used regarding “God” was the Hebrew word Elohim, meaning that plural part of God (including Christ), who created this world. It did NOT refer to our Father, the LORD God of Heaven. The word in Strong’s Concordance, for Elohim, is H430. (all links here open in a new window)
This word, Elohim, also appears in Genesis 1:26 when Christ, our Creator said, “Let us make man in our image.” So, when Jesus once stated that no man may look upon His Father, our LORD, Jesus was right: it has always been Christ who has visited this world which He created. Moses did not see our LORD, the father of Christ; Moses saw Christ pass before him, between the cleft of those rocks. Similarly, Abraham did not visit and converse with our LORD; and neither did Jacob wrestle with our LORD. The word that distinguishes our LORD, the Father of Christ, from that plural form of Elohim, is H3068, or Yahweh.
So, Christians! You are now ready to learn a story of Moses: a story that strangely enough, has never been taught to neither Jews, nor Christians. Quite honestly, this could be Christ in this story; it could be an angel, or some other Heavenly being: Christ’s story here does not supply this information. And quite honestly, it is not important, compared to the lesson Christ is teaching us here. The story goes, very much, like this:
******************************************************************************************
Moses was sent to a place appointed by Christ: a certain place where two seas meet. Here, Moses (and his companion) met a “man:” possibly Christ, or maybe an angel, but definitely a Heavenly being. Moses inquired of the man, “May I follow you so that you can teach me some of the right guidance you have been taught?” The man replied, “You will not be able to bear with me patiently. How could you be patient in matters beyond your knowledge?” Moses said, “God willing, you will find me patient. I will not disobey you in any way.” The man answered, “If you follow me then, do not ask of anything I do before I mention it to you myself.”
They began their journey. Later, when they got into a boat, and the man made a hole in it, Moses inquired, “How could you make a hole in the boat? Do you want to drown its passengers? What a strange thing to do.” The man answered Moses, “Did I not tell you that you would never be able to bear with me patiently?” Moses said, “Forgive me for forgetting. Do not make it too hard for me to follow you.”
And so they travelled on. Then, they met a young boy and the man killed him, Moses said, “How could you kill an innocent person? He has not killed anyone! What a terrible thing to do!” The man replied, “Did I not tell you that you would never be able to bear with me patiently?” Moses said, “From now on, if I ask of anything you do, banish me from your company: for you have put up with enough from me.”
And so they travelled on. Then, when they came to a town and asked for food, but were refused hospitality, they saw a wall there that was on the point of falling down and the man repaired it. Moses said, “But if you had wished, you could have taken payment for doing that work.” The man replied, “This is where you and I part company. I will tell you the meaning of the things you could not bear with patiently:”
“The boat belonged to some needy people who made their living from the sea, and I damaged it because I knew that coming after them, was a king who was seizing every serviceable boat by force.
The young boy had parents who were people of faith, and so, fearing he would trouble them through wickedness and disbelief, we wished that their LORD should give them another child — purer and more compassionate — in his place.
The wall belonged to two young orphans in the town and there was buried treasure beneath it belonging to them. Their father had been a righteous man, so your LORD intended them to reach maturity and then dig up their treasure as a mercy from your LORD.
I did not do these things of my own accord: these are the explanations for those things you could not bear with patience.”
Moses and the man parted company here: Moses having learned a great lesson that all of mankind needs to learn, today.
******************************************************************************************
My Christian friends, would you like to know where this story comes from? Christ placed this story of Moses in His Qur’an. Christ did not place it in the Muslim Qur’an; rather He placed it in His Qur’an! This story can be found in the 18th book of the Qur’an: it begins with verse 60. Every living Muslim knows, and fully understands, this story of Moses! This book is called “The Cave.”
Every reader here would probably agree that everything Moses said was right: from an earthly point-of-view. But God’s Lesson for this world, is that neither Moses, nor any reader here, is capable of understanding God’s point-of-view: FROM HIS ETERNAL PLACE IN HEAVEN.
So quite clearly, Christ did not create this world for us to understand “everything.” Of much greater importance, Christ did not create mankind for mankind to question the Ways of God, here on this Earth, which He created for us. We do not possess the ability (nor the right!) to question God’s Will, God’s Ways, God’s Laws, God’s Ordinances, God’s Commandments, etc., etc.. Mankind’s sole purpose is to worship God, by way of our love for Him: and He has given each of us the ability to obey His Will, His Ways, His Laws, His Ordinances, and His Commandments. This is a lesson our entire world needs to learn, “from Solomon.” (Link opens in a new window.)
Even a blind person, of today, can easily see that Solomon’s words above are a lesson which our current world has no desire to learn! Hence, the punishment found in Christ’s Book of Revelation, written by John; and the impending “Time of Jacob’s Trouble” taught all through the Christian Bible.
SMALL CHRISTIAN SIDE NOTE HERE:
To this author, there is an especially great lesson here for this world’s 33,000 Christian denominations who fail to keep Christ’s Sabbath, Christ’s Second Commandment, any of Christ’s Seven Holy Days, or Christ’s ordinances: such as clean and unclean meats, punishing adulterers and homosexuals, and also failing to put evil away from the average person’s sight! You think you know better, but you know far less than Moses did, in the story above! And for you Christian teachers who fail to teach this world to obey our LORD’s Ways, know that Christ never taught Moses to put “all sinners” away from their sight: but only “true evil” and only truly evil people! Christ even specified these particular evils which were to be put out of mankind’s sight. (Just one more of Satan’s lies that have found a “permanent home” in this world’s 33,000 Christian denominations.)
Of course, every person would very much prefer to understand everything about this life which we have been “gifted with,” but perhaps, just perhaps, Christ knows better. Maybe, just maybe, Christ knows that we cannot possibly understand these things, while we are still living in this world. Maybe one of His expectations here is that we all, sometime before we die, find the ability within ourselves, to unequivocally trust His Judgment in all matters. This author is not claiming any of this paragraph to be a Truth of God, but these things certainly are possible. It is also possible that He just wants to see that we get better at fulfilling His expectations, as we age. Maybe there is a reason that a young baby dies, maybe there is a reason that a certain child gets cancer. We just don’t know! And we will never know until we meet Christ someday and ask Him. But every reader here just learned a most important lesson. A lesson which shows that mankind STILL behaves no differently than Moses in his story which Christ placed in “The Cave.” Given all of the Scriptures which Christ has sent down to this little world, we STILL behave no differently than Moses did in his test.
This author does not present this story to show how the strongman (Moses) failed. This author presents this story to show how if the strongman failed, then we are all similarly failing, even if we cannot see this! And we all have some very important lessons yet to be learned in our lives: and indeed, God has placed one of these lessons right here in the story of Moses. This event was but a very brief moment in the lifetime of Moses, who God loved very much. (Moses was personally buried by Christ, Himself. Moses went to Heaven and quite possibly, is one of the Four-and-Twenty Elders of Revelation. How can this author even consider speaking these things? Because Moses, and Elijah, appeared to Jesus and conversed with Jesus, in the Bible. Also, the Greek word Christ used here, “presbyteros” (Strong’s G4245), spoken to John in Heaven indicates that those Elders were absolutely chosen from mankind, and only from mankind. Meaning they were the best-of-the-best of us! And Christ, or our LORD, selected them to surround His Throne, in Heaven!) But through the earthly failure of this beloved strongman, every person learning this story can, and must, discard a great deal of their personal dead-weight (meaning vanities and Satan’s lies), make changes in their “Scriptural beliefs” which will please Christ, and then learn how to trust Christ, our Creator. (Just like Moses did.) Meaning a complete and unconditional trust!
Maybe . . . just maybe . . . when Christ one day explains everything to us, we will reply, “Oh, I never thought about that,” or “I never knew that,” or maybe we will just stand there in awe and be humbled by His Perfect and Graceful solutions to every single thing we never understood, here in this world.
So, what does this leave us with? To this author, this entire Sura (The Cave) provides a clear lesson, from Christ, that no matter where we live, no matter when we lived, and no matter what life throws at us, we are to journey through this life striving to do those things that are right in God’s Eyes. The entire Qur’an also teaches that we all possess the knowledge, and ability, of doing what is right. It is only our laziness and/or sheer petulance that causes us to fail: or worse yet, to claim (meaning to lie) on Judgment Day that we just didn’t know that we were expected to be righteous. Quite honestly, this Christian believes these excuses are “one” of the central themes found all through the Qur’an: because in His Qur’an, Christ repeatedly teaches that on Judgment Day, there are going to be a LOT of excuses for failure, by mankind. Not one shall succeed.
This story of Moses is only a small part of this Sura. It contains more stories and various Truths of God, regarding other people in far-away lands: with Christ presenting the details and His expected Lessons to be learned (just as He did with Moses). One more very important (and quite obvious) lesson this author learned from “The Cave” is that Christ could care less if any person ever believed in just the “NAME” of Jesus, or Allah, or Jehovah, or Christ, or any other man-made name we have for Him. Why? Because not one good person, detailed in Christ’s Sura called “The Cave,” ever knew one of those silly man-made names that we currently have for our Creator, today.
Of course, they are not silly names . . . until we start fighting over them! Until we start killing each other because of them! Or the grand-daddy of all lies: “Until we start REJECTING OUR LORD’s SCRIPTURES because of that “other” name!” Christians, Muslims, and Jews . . . “embrace that other Scripture” as if it were a gold mine found under an old wall in your back yard that Christ Himself, long ago, wrote (oops, make that “repaired,” just for you) and you just became the world’s richest person. Because you have! God’s Word is that valuable!
Jews . . . you also! You too, are missing out on so much of our LORD’s Scriptures! Every “believer” reading this letter fully understands how God babbled our languages shortly after the days of Noah. It happened at the tower of Babel and God placed this story in your Torah:
Genesis 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
So here we are . . . in full agreement as to how our various languages came into being: yet we absolutely REJECT everything that our CREATOR sent down to those people, in their various languages. (Jewish, Christian, and Muslim teachers — this might be the greatest religious lesson you ever encounter in your professional lives! Atheists and Agnostics, you might want to pay attention here too: because this is the “root” of many of your “perceived” problems with religion! You reject “religion” because it is not perfect. Well, religion has never been perfect. Seek only God! God is Perfect. God’s Scriptures are perfect: all of them! There is not one Scripture which teaches that any “religion” is required to find God. But there are a great many Scriptures which teach that every person, born on this world, is required to find God. So find God! The flip side of God’s coin here is that “if you ever reject God, then He will reject you on Judgment Day.” This is all, your choice: and it is by your Creator’s Design.)
So . . .
How vain are we?
How stupid are we?
How silly, and short-sighted, are we?
Well, this author shall attempt to explain all of this in this silly author’s own words, and then this author shall explain all of this by way of our LORD’s Perfect Scriptures and His Perfect Truths.
THIS AUTHOR’S VIEWPOINT
This author sees this world as though it might be an enormous rotting piece of fruit: perhaps a gigantic smelly, rotten peach. We mankind, are nothing more than bugs, scurrying around on that piece of rotting fruit, climbing over each other, and staking out claims for ourselves. We are all just looking-out for ourselves, and then a few of the smarter bugs manage to carve-out a large piece of “fresher” fruit that they found. (Oh, it is still in the rotting-process; it just appears to be fresher than some of the rest.) This makes those bugs seem wealthy. They hold it up and shout loudly, “This is mine! See what I have done? I have more than the rest of you!” In this author’s silly vision, he sees this world’s billionaires (and millionaires) as those bugs which have managed to carve out that bigger piece than the rest. We all know their names; this author does not need to name them here.
Ever since this author began studying all of the various Scriptures and Teachings of God from around this world, this silly vision has crept into this author’s mind, at night. (For some thirty-years now.) This author often thinks that this is how Christ, and His Father, our LORD, both view this world which we currently live in. And like it or not, this is how we truly behave down here. Christ, and His Father, absolutely know what “Their Eternity” holds for us: should we ever find our way to Heaven. And they both know that we will no longer be bugs, should we graduate to heaven on Judgment Day. We will have new bodies, incorruptible: if we can just get through this little, tiny world; in the short amount of time granted to us, relatively speaking. But here we are, chasing the silly things of this world: and there They are, in Heaven, watching us do this! Bugs, maggots, and cockroaches! (This author, too, is guilty here! Ashamed, embarrassed, and guilty! But this author does not lie, and this author will not hold-back: God does not like either of those traits in a person. He calls it “guile.”)
Atheists and agnostics . . . this author has been writing to you for over 30 years now. Please try to understand that there truly is someone, much greater than us, watching this world. Oh, we can let our selfish pride tell us otherwise, but Christ, and His Father, created this world for “Their own purpose.” Their “purpose” is actually the entire point of this letter. (And it is not necessary for us to understand “Their purpose.”) But we are here, living for a little while, so that Christ and His Father might determine if we can be of any further use to Them in our LORD’s Kingdom. (This author shall not go into all of Christ’s parables, placed in His Bible, which teach of how the “landlord” watches his “tenants,” so he might find those tenants who can actually be trusted with greater things. This Knowledge of God has been available throughout His Scriptures for thousands of years now!) Just know that the LAST THING Christ, and His Father, are looking for (in mankind) is a pride so-great that it declares, “I will never believe in a God until He explains Himself to me!” As a matter of fact, all of His Scriptures teach that He is truly looking for humble people, who have rejected (or departed from) all worldly pride.
We “all” chase this-and-that. We “all” desire just that little bit more. Not much really, just that little bit more.
And then we see that other little bit more . . . and it starts all over. And quite sadly, this never ends with mankind.
OUR LORD’s PERFECT VIEWPOINT
Now, let us get back to our LORD’s Perfect Scriptures and Perfect Truths regarding this entire matter! The 16th Book of Christ’s Qur’an is called “The Bee,” and it is the perfect name for this failure of mankind (and how Christ, and His Father, watch the silliness of mankind here on this Earth).
The Qur’an 16:65 – 69
It is God who sends water down from the sky and with it revives the earth when it is dead. There truly is a sign in this for people who listen. In livestock, too, you have a lesson – We give you a drink from the contents of their bellies, between waste matter and blood, pure milk, sweet to the drinker. From the fruits of date palms and grapes you take sweet juice and wholesome provisions. There truly is a sign in this for people who use their reason. And your LORD inspired the bee, saying, “Build yourselves houses in the mountains and trees and what people construct. Then feed on all kinds of fruit and follow the ways made easy for you by your LORD.” From their bellies, comes a fruit of different colors in which there is healing for people. There truly is a sign in this for those who think.
NOTE by jpw: God wants us to learn the life, the story, and the lesson of “the bee,” here on this Earth. They always cooperate, they always help each other, they never fight each other: therefore they EXCEL! “The Bee” teaches how life was meant to be (and could have always been) lived here on this Earth, if we were ever to have learned how to work together, help each other, and draw upon the strengths which others possess. Mankind truly should learn to draw from God’s Honey which is found in all of His Scriptures because it is God who sent them down (from the sky) and with it, revives the earth (when it is dead). With this in mind, let us finally learn from the bees.
Bees are smart, smarter than people. Bees follow the ways made easy for them, by the LORD. (How silly, yet truthful, is that?) From their bellies, comes a fruit of different colors in which there is healing for people. There truly is a sign in this for those who think.
NOTE by jpw: Because the bees follow the ways made easy for them, by our LORD, they are then capable of producing a fruit of different colors and people can find healing through this fruit of different colors. Bees always work together (the easy way). If one bee finds a new source of honey, upon returning to the hive, that bee will literally draw a map (in the air!) teaching all other bees the direction and the distance to that source! So, every bee strives to help the “rest of mankind.” (Oops, make that “the rest of the hive.” Sorry about that!)
If mankind truly desired to find the ways made easy for us, here on this Earth, mankind would truly feed upon all of the Scriptures that our CREATOR has placed upon this world. And when a new Truth of God was discovered, every person would strive to help all other bees. (Oops, make that “all other people.” Sorry about that!) Our LORD’s Truths do not get any easier than this!
So please find here, just one lesson that this author learned from “The Bee.” There are many more lessons to be learned there.
From all of His Scriptures, comes a fruit of different colors in which there is healing for people. There truly is a sign in this for those who think.
God did not teach mankind about the bees so that we might learn how honey is made. God taught this world the story of “His bees” so that mankind might learn about God, and His Ways (which He asks us to follow). A major teaching of God’s Qur’an is for mankind to just look around and see His Glory in everything that He has created for us, down here. Everything that God created is “good” for mankind and there are lessons, for us to learn, everywhere. Good lessons, such as His story of the bees, and bad lessons in the towns and villages He destroyed; and in His Qur’an, He often invites mankind to travel this world and then see those places: they are all still desolate places, including Shiloh (from the Bible). And He encourages mankind to actually follow the incredible lesson of the bees. All they do is follow the ways God has made easy for them.
Yes, truly following the Torah will absolutely get a person to Heaven.
Yes, truly following the Gospels will absolutely get a person to Heaven.
Yes, truly following the Qur’an will absolutely get a person to Heaven.
There is no doubting any of this because our LORD is Faithful and True.
BUT . . . and this is our LORD’s Lesson here: the ways of mankind would become much easier and much clearer for us if we fed upon all of His Scriptures. (And because this is a Truth of God, it goes far beyond the mere words that were written in His Scripture called The Qur’an!) If mankind could learn to accept all of our LORD’s Scriptures, then mankind would have much less hatred, distrust, personal and national animosity, and far fewer wars upon this Earth. And no, this old author is not an Ivory-Tower peace-loving airhead, who knows nothing about real life. But if mankind could just learn to accept all of our LORD’s Scriptures that have been sent down to this world, then that would only leave the odd dictator, genocidal ruler, and a few border issues to deal with.
Everything described above are Truths of God because they come directly from His Scriptures (The Bee). With all truths, comes knowledge. But with God’s Truth, comes Wisdom also. So please understand, now, a certain piece of Wisdom that our LORD has placed in the Scriptures above!
******************************************************************************************
******************************************************************************************
Each reader just read, above, how God promises this world that every Jew (or every person, actually) who follows and obeys His Torah can get to Heaven. God promises the same in His Gospel and His Qur’an. (Same with the Buddha too, but that is beyond the scope of this letter.) Given these Truths of God, this author shall present a certain Wisdom of God that is also taught in every Scripture that was ever sent down to this world! We even have a webpage about that here; oddly enough, that 2006 webpage was tabbed: “The Qur’an – Proved!” This particular Wisdom of God is actually taught twice in His Qur’an; and every reader here (including every Muslim reader) just went right past Allah’s (Christ’s) Wisdom in His story of the bees, above.
So . . . consider the following Wisdom of God. As a “true believer” in our LORD, do you (the reader here) think that God might have just placed “one set” of Truths in His Torah, a “different set” of Truths in His Gospel, and “yet another set” of Truths in His Qur’an? (Remember, that we have not departed from the lesson of “The Bees” here: and the ways made easy by our LORD.) Clearly, each “set” of God’s Scriptures will get a person to Heaven if they follow and obey His Truths placed in those Scriptures. Again, our LORD has assured that. This is the easy part; but please continue.
Now . . . and this is important . . . do you think that God might have just placed “Enhanced Truths” that can ONLY be discovered (by the truest of His believers) after combining two, or even more, of His Scriptures?
For instance . . .
This author has forever written of how Christ, our Creator, was the Friend of Abraham, wrestled with Jacob and changed Jacob’s name to Israel. It was Christ, our Creator, who later spoke to Moses, wrote the Ten Commandments upon stone with His Own Finger, and later gave Moses many ordinances and Holy Days that the descendants of Jacob were to follow, forever. (Regarding Moses, you Christians can find this in Hebrews 11:26 and John 8:56 – 58.) Well, regarding Jews, Christians, Muslims, and a great many others: Elohim/Christ/Allah (or whatever name we use for our Creator! – because He babbled our languages!) closed His entire Old Testament with His closing words sent down to Malachi:
Malachi 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not . . .
Honestly, this is the most simple “Enhanced Truth” that God has placed in that Book which mankind calls the Bible. An enhanced Truth? Well, it most certainly encourages all Jews to follow their LORD into His next set of Truths (meaning Scriptures; and meaning His “new” Gospels). And it certainly provides a GREAT GUIDANCE for the soon-to-come Christians (yes, that means “Christians of today!”) so that they will know better than to discard even one little word (neither a “jot nor a tittle!”) from His previous Truths (meaning His Old Testament). One great lesson of Christ’s most simple “Enhanced Truth” here is that His little Book of Malachi would expose all future Christian religious leaders who taught that “everything changed with Jesus!” (Because 400 years before Jesus, Christ told Malachi that “I will NEVER CHANGE!” Period. End of discussion. Anyone who teaches otherwise is listening to Satan’s LIES!) This would definitely include Satan’s lies regarding Sunday worship, graven images in our churches and homes, worshiping bleeding statues, praying to dead people, praying for miracles from dead people and dead Popes, and finally, ignoring all of the Old Testament Laws and Ordinances that Christ placed in that Book. And swore that He would never change. IN THAT BOOK! These last three simple sentences expose 2,000 years of Satan’s work within the Christian faith: meaning thousands of Satan’s lies!
While we are addressing God’s “Enhanced Truths” regarding Christians here, every Christian would do well to also understand that our ONE CREATOR might have sent down some “corrective measures” in that Scripture which followed their beloved Gospels. Most will say: “Oh no, that cannot be! Our Scriptures are perfect! We don’t need any help!” Well yes, your Scriptures clearly are perfect, because Christ sent them down to this world: but your following of Christ’s Scriptures is far from perfect. Always remember that Christ is the perfect One here: we are not. Christians ALWAYS fault the Jews for failing to recognize “that which came NEXT from Christ.” Well Christians! You have FOREVER ignored “that which came NEXT from Christ” also! Christ sent down a Scripture about 500-years after yours: and it describes many of your failings here in this world. Exactly as Christ’s Gospels describe many Jewish failings here in this world.
A further lesson of Christ’s most simple “Enhanced Truth” here is for Muslims! The most recent Scripture before His Qur’an was His Book of John. (Yes Christians, the Gospel of John was written after the Book of Revelation: this is how John learned the first fourteen verses of his Gospel. Indeed, it was written nearly 40-years after Paul died.) But Muslims, in the Gospel of John, Christ (your Allah) teaches that He must leave them because He has other sheep to bring into Paradise. So Muslims, Christ, your Allah, was talking about YOU, in the verse below!
John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
Christ was clearly teaching this world that after He was finished using the body of Jesus, He had further work to conduct on this Earth for His Father, our LORD. Yes, Christians are too proud (of their Jesus) to acknowledge this fact. But worse yet, Muslims are too stubborn to even permit the existence of their Creator’s other Scriptures within their lands!
So . . . all of this begs just one question for every Jew, Christian, and Muslim now:
Just “who is it” that desires mankind to “never combine” the various Scriptures of God that have been sent down to this Earth?
There can be only one answer: it is Satan! And Satan has performed this one task to perfection! Indeed, he had to because it was his only chance of success in this world. Every Scripture that Christ has sent down to this world teaches, beyond a shadow-of-doubt, that Satan cannot violate, stand-against, nor change the Word of God: meaning God’s Scriptures. God’s Scriptures are Satan’s Achilles Heel and Satan is fully aware of this! God teaches this throughout His Scriptures, yet mankind prefers to listen to the more comfortable teachings of Satan! How is this possible? Given all of the Truths that Christ has given to mankind, how is it possible that we still prefer to follow the ways that Satan teaches us? Part of the answer is that not many people, of today, know very much about the teachings of Christ.
For instance, in the Gospels, Satan took a very weakened Jesus (caused by 40-days of fasting) up to a mountaintop. There, Satan tempted Jesus with promises; wonderful promises that Jesus KNEW Satan had the ability to fulfill. But Christ only answered Satan with verses from God’s Scriptures and Satan was instantly silenced and forced to move on to a different temptation. Christ, every single time, answered Satan only with God’s Scriptures; and Christ defeated Satan there on that mountaintop. Every Jew, every Christian, and every Muslim fully understands that Satan cannot stand against the Word of God which was sent down to them. (Our LORD is Satan’s LORD; and our LORD just does not permit this!) Yet, no one wants to learn the Perfect Words that were sent down to the others. The temptation of Jesus is recorded in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke; and truthfully, Jesus did make it look fairly easy to any reader. But apparently, this is much more difficult in real life because Satan is currently winning this fight, hands-down, with mankind! Nearly undefeated, this author would say.
IT MUST BE NOTED HERE that Satan is NOT forbidden from lying to mankind (such as Eve, in the Garden), from deceiving mankind (such as the great Christian whore, and her harlots, in Revelation 17), nor from causing mankind to bend, twist, and pervert the Word of God according to his prior works of deceiving them (such as all religious teachers back in the days of Jesus; and now again, in the fast-approaching days of Christ’s return)! Nor is Satan forbidden to teach lies “about” God’s Scriptures (such as teaching Muslim leaders that this world’s current Bible is corrupt: thereby causing all good, and true, Muslims to wait for a mysterious “Book of Q” that can never come, because it has never existed)! Christians, you should understand that in Christ’s Qur’an (meaning Allah, in their tongue) instructed Muhammad to learn Christ’s Word placed in the Bible. And Muhammad obeyed. But after Muhammad’s death, Satan convinced all Muslim leaders that the Bible had been corrupted by mankind: therefore, they were no longer bound by this command of Christ (Allah). Satan convinced the Muslim leaders that they should patiently wait for a certain “Book of Q” to arrive. Then, and only then, would they be bound by the words found in the Qur’an. Muslim leaders were more than happy to follow this lie of Satan. (Does any of this sound like the lie Satan delivered to Eve, in the Garden, long ago?)
On our webpage here tabbed “Satan’s Achilles Heel” we revealed many lies of Satan that are specific to Christians; these lies are “best learned” by combining Christ’s Gospels with His Qur’an. We even gave a few examples of “extraordinarily major” Christian flaws that Christ plainly revealed, and also explained, in His Qur’an. (Remember that His Qur’an came some 500 years after His Gospels! Our Beloved “Christian Christ” used that opportunity to address a few horrible and serious flaws that we Christians have created, by way of Satan’s lies.) Besides fulfilling His Promise (in Genesis and the Gospel of John) regarding His Blessings for the descendants of Ishmael by way of His Qur’an, Christ also explained how all of the various Christian mistakes are actually Satan’s victories against our LORD.
Honestly, God has seen to it that all of these “Satan related problems” require nothing more than “a simple desire to learn.” His Scriptures have always been here! They are easily attainable. And they are incredibly simple. The only problem is . . . that nobody really cares anymore. God fully understands all of this as He watches the silly things that we do on this little Earth which He created. So, given this! Do you (meaning each reader here) think that our LORD might greatly reward a person (Jew, Christian, Muslim, or otherwise) who actually put forth an effort to SEARCH FOR THE “WHOLE LORD” who created this world? Even if they never find our “Whole LORD” (and who is able to, quite honestly?) our LORD will see their effort and reward their effort.

Quite honestly, Christ’s answer to all of this is so Perfect that all this author can do is to present, once again, Christ’s (Allah’s) Lesson that this author, at least, learned from “The Bee:”
From “all of His” Scriptures, comes a fruit of different colors in which there is healing for people. There truly is a sign in this for those who think.
Oh, what a Beautiful LORD we have: Earthly words cannot describe our LORD.
All He wants to do is to help us find Him . . . despite our selfish ways!

My friend, this webpage is tabbed, “UNDERSTANDING GOD.” Do you yet understand God, here on this page? Well, believe it or not, you are half-way there. Everything you require is indeed found above! Every single thing! We only need to gather a little firewood, from above, and build a campfire.
We started with the story of Moses and how he traveled with that Heavenly Being and never understood the actions of that Heavenly Being. Also, given Moses’ failure rate with that Being, Moses was never going to understand the Heavenly actions of our LORD.
A great many people, good people of today, are just like Moses. There are good people who demand that God fits into their perception of what “a god” should be, or should be like. There are good people who say they refuse to ever believe in a God because of all of the bad things that He allows to happen in this world. (Honestly, that is the matter of a different letter, but each reader did just get a “taste” of this failure in our story of Moses.) There are also many very good people who literally “shop around” for a church where they feel, well, “comfortable.” (Would you like to know the name of this world’s leading expert on “comfort?” His name is Satan. And Satan loves “shoppers” because Satan wins every time with shoppers! Nothing personal with that, but the average shopper here has lived about 30 – 40 years: while Satan was living long before Adam and Eve were ever created! So this lesson is more of a “credit” towards Satan’s abilities than it is an “accusation” against mankind’s struggle to find God.)
To all good people reading this letter . . . please let our campfire catch fire.
In the end, Moses fully understood everything that had taken place, but he also learned that he was never going to understand everything about God’s actions in this world. So, the key lesson that Moses learned was that of trusting our LORD and His Judgment on this Earth which He Created. Please understand that this entire story of Moses was but a very small event in the history of mankind. Our one God is ruling over an Eternity! These events of Moses might have taken place in just 2 or 3 days. So please do not expect this story to fully explain our Eternal LORD who is ruling over affairs throughout this universe, which He Created.
Christ wants us all to learn that there are things that we just will never understand, here in this world. Later in Heaven, yes, we will probably understand. But for now, just love your LORD, worship your LORD, and obey your LORD.
Still gathering firewood . . .
Next, we talked about Solomon. Many folks don’t know this, but one day, God told that very young Solomon to ask for whatever he desired, and it would be granted. Young Solomon asked for the ability to discern between people when judging over them (as their king). In the words below, please find God’s response to Solomon: (Remember, when God speaks in the Old Testament, it is really Christ, of our LORD’s Elohim.)
1 Kings 3:11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;
1 Kings 3:12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.
This is why it is commonly taught that Solomon was the wisest person who ever lived. However, over the course of his life, Solomon became a very vain man: nearly to the point of no comparison. Few people realize this, but Solomon was also one of the wealthiest people who ever lived. So, add a king’s crown and a mighty (and undefeated) army to all of that wisdom, and it is easy to understand the vanities that found their way into Solomon’s life.
Through his many years, Solomon’s vanities grew to the point where he finally realized that he was no longer pleasing to God. (Perhaps it was because God stopped visiting him or God stopped teaching him: this author does not know.) But Solomon knew he was in “Eternal trouble.” Before his death, Solomon somehow came to his senses and wrote a confession. That book is called “Ecclesiastes” today; and you can find it in every Bible. Somehow, in his old age, Solomon finally came to understand God! And the “wisest person who ever lived,” recorded this invaluable lesson for the entire world to learn! In his closing words, which teach of his complete failure (by way of Satan’s delivered vanities), the old, and dying, Solomon wrote that the entirety of all of his wisdom taught him that the only acceptable, upright, and truthful words that he could write concerning our LORD are as follows:
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Ecclesiastes 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
So, the wisest person who ever lived concluded, near the end of his life, that the above words are the whole duty of man.
But . . . fear God? That is not the Christian way!
Well, Solomon understood this fear, “here.” The Book of Psalms by King David show that he fully understood this fear. Noah understood this fear of failing God, “here.” And that last link also proves that Paul fully understood this fear.
Maybe . . . just maybe! Christians need to finally learn a most important, and long forgotten, lesson for these end-times that are quickly approaching. (Regarding a lie that Satan taught all Christian leaders, hundreds of years ago!)
Yes, absolutely! FEAR GOD! Every Muslim in this world understands this. Because every Muslim has read the details of Allah’s (Christ’s) books named “Judgment Day” and “The Inevitable Hour,” in their Qur’an. Christians do not understand much about the details of our coming Judgment Day because Christ did not teach these details in His Bible. So, Satan has long fooled all Christian teachers and leaders that “not one Christian will ever face Judgement Day” because Christ loves Christians more than all the others. All you have to do is to “believe in the name of Jesus” and you are given a free ticket to Heaven. And you will either bypass Judgment Day entirely, or you will be raptured to Heaven long before it arrives. Oh, how Satan has every single Christian denomination fooled today. All 33,000 of them!
While the Bible clearly teaches that Christ shall rule this world for one thousand years, there is one large Christian denomination that actually teaches that when Christ returns, He shall not exactly return: rather, this Christian denomination shall rise up to meet Christ in the air and then they will all return to Heaven. Only evil people, and this pathetic author, shall remain here for the next one-thousand years. Satan! This is all the work of Satan! Revelation clearly teaches that Christ (and His elect, not just one denomination) shall live ON this world for one thousand years and they shall rule this world for those one thousand years. They will NOT be doing this from Heaven! Christ’s elect shall do His bidding here as this world’s ruler. 144,000 of them. Not an entire denomination.
Oh, Christians . . . you need to fear God! Not a fear of Him destroying you, although that “could” happen on Judgment Day if your life here so warrants that. No, your fear of God needs to be a fear of YOU failing Him down, by way of the life you chose to live here. One can truly love God and fear God at the same time. Because our obeying God is a daily affair that we all face every morning. And He has placed everything we require right in front of us. His Laws, His Scriptures, His ordinances, and His Blessings that come when He sees that we love Him.
Satan has fooled the entire Christian faith that reaching salvation (or Heaven) is a one-and-done thing. After you say you have found Jesus, you are done, and you have succeeded. Satan! This is all the work of Satan! Ask any Muslim. They can tell you all about this fear. They will tell you it is a fearful love: a fear of not following God and His Ways. We all sin; every Muslim will tell you this.
Now, let’s build that fire . . .
The first story of Moses was introduced here to teach that mankind will never understand our God and His Ways. He is too perfect, and we are too flawed. God could have used any person, known or unknown, in that story, but He chose Moses. Because this world reveres Moses; Moses is amongst the best of our best, history-wise. But Moses failed at the easiest test God could give. “Come with me and just stay quiet.” How easy is that? But we all fail at this every day of our lives: believers and unbelievers. We demand to understand God. Not only that, but we demand to understand Him right now! It should not be required that we put forth an effort to understand our LORD.
But God teaches that this universe, and this world, cannot operate that way. We are physically incapable of understanding the Glory and Perfection of God. And we only have one choice in this matter: to accept that Knowledge from God. Oh, once we leave this world, we will most likely understand a great deal more, but we are stuck in this world and cannot leave.
Do you remember that rotten piece of fruit this author mentioned after that story of Moses? And how some of the wealthier bugs managed to carve out bigger pieces for their selves? We all know who those billionaires are today, on this piece of fruit, but the Truth of God is that no matter if they obtain it all, they cannot leave this rotten piece of fruit. Nor can any person on this world understand anything beyond this rotten piece of fruit. That is just the way life here is and our only choice is to accept it. (And yes, to accept God’s Truths, God’s Ways, and God’s Will that are all known to be perfect. Or for any unbelievers, your lesson is that God’s Ways have never been proven to be anything but perfect by any science that exists. And science is continually disproving a great many of mankind’s supposed beliefs and false truths of this world: as time goes on and as science gets better and better.)
The fire is catching . . . let’s pour some wisdom on it.
Solomon and his life! He was as rich as any billionaire today. He was as powerful as any government or military today: in fact, he was so wealthy, and thanks to his father David, his military might was so powerful that no nation even considered attacking him. And then we come to the wisdom of Solomon. After completely succumbing to his vanities and chasing every pleasure this world had to offer in those days, Solomon finally decided that life (and his chasing of vanities) had utterly defeated him. That only left God in Solomon’s life: that old God who used to talk to Solomon so many years before. That old God who Blessed Solomon, in so many ways, when he was young.
Somehow (nobody knows how), that old and failed, yet wise, Solomon finally came to realize that there was only one path left for him to succeed: to reveal his utter failures to the entire world, so that they might find success through his mistakes, and to also confess to God: by way of Solomon’s openly explaining his failures to this world. So in his old age, he sat down and wrote the “Book of Ecclesiastes.” One of the most instructive books ever written and it was written by a failure-of-a-man. It remains one of this author’s favorite books of all time. So please consider now, the closing words of this world’s wisest person and one of mankind’s largest failures:
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Ecclesiastes 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
My friend, this lesson is over.
The fire has been built and it only needs to be enjoyed.
We will never be in charge, and we will never be able to change that.
We will never be able to leave this planet Earth during this lifetime.
This only leaves our trusting (and a “fear of failing”) our Creator.
This is ALL by His Design! We MUST come to trust in Him only.
From this trust and fear, shall come a great love for all of the Blessings He has given us. For after you learn to trust Him and after you develop that necessary fear of failing “your end” of that trust which you have placed upon His Grace, then you shall see all of the great Truths, Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding that He has Blessed us with through His Scriptures. Many people take His Scriptures to be a burden. Nothing could be further from His Truth.
His Scriptures are a complete Blessing because they keep us out of trouble, they keep Satan out of our lives when we don’t understand something, they give us a path (a truly good path) to follow whenever we have a decision to make, and they are so simple that no other person is needed to understand them. God is a most simple Being. The best part of everything is that once you decide that you love the Truths that are in His Scriptures, and you have surrounded your life with these Scriptures, then you forget everything about that “fearing” part. Until you screw-up and make a mistake. And that fear returns! But when it returns, it only helps you get back to where you were before. This too is good.
Are you beginning to see how with God, everything that happens only brings good into your life? Even fearing God is a good thing. And when you no longer need it, it goes away. And because you no longer need it, all of the good stuff you left behind for that “little while of a mistake,” is still there: right where you left it! God’s Blessings include all of these Truths also!

Once again, as this author has written throughout this website, this author would like to clearly state that should any Christian, Jew, or even an atheist/agnostic, desire to read just a few verses from Christ’s Qur’an, then these folks should know that this author has studied nearly every English translation of the Qur’an and has only found one translation that this author considers to be masterful; and true to every other English Scripture that exists. That translation is by M. A. S. Abdel Haleem. This author uses his 2004 version and cannot imagine any improvements being possible, but Mr. Haleem is the expert here: he does have later versions available. The quality of his work is beyond comparison, and the paperback versions often cost less than a cup of coffee.
This Christian author can promise every reader here, that if you read the Qur’an, it will not make you a Muslim; but it will absolutely make you a better Christian, or Jew! Even if you are currently an unbeliever, it will absolutely make you a better person. It did, this Christian author.
You can find a copy of his translation at this link:
