God's Most Important Commandment

“12:26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? 12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

12:28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

“12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he: 12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

Go into the "Inner Chamber" to find the Spirit of the Lord

When you are told to go into the "inner chamber" you are being told to meditate and to go within yourself.

2 Chronicles18

23 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the Lord from me to speak unto thee?

24 And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.

34 And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.


1 Kings 20:29-31

29 And they pitched one over against the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day.

30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and there a wall fell upon twenty and seven thousand of the men that were left. And Benhadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner chamber.


31 And his servants said unto him, Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, I pray thee, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel: peradventure he will save thy life.

The Fig Blooms Within it's Own Fruit

The beauty of allegory is that the intention of the author is not subject to interpretation, it's just hidden.

Why is it that when Adam and Eve are exposed as being naked in the Garden of Eden, they use a "Fig Leaf" to cover themselves? Why not a date leaf or what was certainly common in the middle east at the time, a "palm frawn" ? Why not another kind of leaf? Why a "Fig Leaf".  Why does it say in John 1:48 that Jesus recognizes Nathanael, "when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.” Again why not under an apple tree or a pear tree? 
John “1:48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.”

The "fig tree" represents going within.
Why does the bible author use the term "fig trees" and "fig leaves" so often instead of other trees and leaves? What is it about figs? Is there a special lesser-known i.e., hidden, meaning for figs? Having looked up "fig tree" in the dictionary and Wikipeidia.com, I found that the unique characteristic of figs is that they are a fruit tree that does not bloom and produce pretty blossoms on the outside like say, a cherry tree, or an apple tree. The fig tree blossoms on the inside. It blooms within the fruit itself. That's the main difference. So when Jesus tells Nathaniel that he knew him when he was under the fig tree, I think he means that Jesus was able to acknowledge Nathaniel, because Nathaniel was also going within. Jesus is there within yourself. And the way to go within oneself is to close your eyes and meditate. If you are naked,, i.e. insecure, and need to be clothed, i.e. comforted, you need to put on the fig leaf, in other words go within your self. Meditate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_fig: "The flower itself is not visible outwardly, as it blooms inside the infructescence. Although commonly referred to as a fruit, the fig is actually the infructescence or scion of the tree, known as a false fruit or multiple fruit, in which the flowers and seeds are borne. It is a hollow-ended stem containing many flowers. The small orifice (ostiole) visible on the middle of the fruit is a narrow passage, which allows the specialized fig wasp Blastophaga psenes to enter the fruit and pollinate the flower, whereafter the fruit grows seeds. See Ficus: Fig pollination and fig fruit.

If You're praying to Jesus, you're wasting your time, or so says the bible ...

Jesus represents a state of meditation. When you meditate you'll realize that the Jesus doesn't speak of how great he was, he's tells you how great you are!!! Once again, organized religions have gotten it all wrong. Jesus was not meant to represent a person. His life is an allegory, a metaphor of what we must to to get into the kingdom of heaven which is within us, now, today, while we are alive, not a place someone goes when they die.

Jesus says in ….
John 5:30 "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me."

and he says in ...
John 14: 11 "Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son."

Giving 10% Doesn't Mean Giving Money!

Giving 10% does not mean giving 10% of your income. It means sacrificing the 10% of your mind that you're dwelling in, the material world governed by your physical senses. The 10% is the left hemisphere of the brain. You must give up the 10% to passover into the 90% which lies on the right side, that's where the fish are biting, that's where the promised land is.

Genesis 28:22 And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee

40 Days and 40 Nights in the wilderness.

Thy Kingdom Come?

Luke 17: 20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.

24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
