Colonial Faith
Colonial Faith
Not too long ago, few generations before us, our ancestors embraced this religious faith for worldly reasons. Religious faith we inherited from our parents, comes with theological explanations built around Doctrines and Dogmas by the hierarchies of the Clergy.
John 14:23, “Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.”
My Christianity is Scripture as is; for a human who is not re-born of Christ; word “Faith” is exactly what it means in the English language.
“strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.”
Apostle Paul’s conversion from Saul to Paul is the classic re-Birth of a soul retuning to Christ.
Abram or Abraham?
My Christianity is adamantly sure that the Gift of Faith poured upon the Apostles and the 3000 humans on the day of Pentecost is the Abrahamic Faith. The rest of the world is still in Abramic Faith.
Colonial Christian faith is the Theological-Abrahamic faith handed down to generations through birth. We were baptized to the faith of our parents.
A “Godliness” without power. 2Thimothy 3: 1-5, “But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people “
We all have ancestors and how we received this faith in a Creator God is the ultimate operation of true Scriptural Faith in our lives.
Just comparing the present-day population statistics of nation of Turkey from the year 100 AD; the population break down of Faithful to Abrahamic faith of Turkey in the 100 AD. was 90%. Today the Abramic Faith of Turkey is 99.09%.
The new Testament is the written scripture spoken to the Hearts of the Faithful inspired by the Helper promised through Christ. This Helper is the Spirit of Creation, poured upon humanity on the day of Pentecost.
Acts 1:4-5, “On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days, you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
A born-again Christian has communion with this Spirit as the only Spirit of Jesus with His Father.
Theology, doctrines or philosophies of men are teachings coming down from generations to generations long before the appearance of Christ on earth.
The prophesy of the servant Isaiah who lived 2700 years before our time, prophesized the coming of Christ 700 years before his arrival.
Isaiah 53: 4, “Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.”
Then another servant Joel who lived 2600 years before our time prophesized the day of Pentecost and the moment we are living today.
Joel 3:13-14, “Swing the sickle,
for the harvest is ripe.
Come, trample the grapes,
for the winepress is full
and the vats overflow—
so great is their wickedness!”
14 Multitudes, multitudes
in the valley of decision!
For the day of the Lord is near
in the valley of decision.”
The Faithful church is full of the Holy Spirit (New wine) while faithless are drowned in Theologies and Philosophies of men.
Today the whole world is trapped in the valley of decisions without an escape?
True faith of the Spirit of Christ shall be the day you accept the Pentecostal gift.
You will never go back to the form of Godliness taught throughout generations by the religious (Clergy).
Through Scripture, Christians know without a shadow of doubt, understands that Christ is one with His Father and Spirit of God is the “Holy Spirit”.
This is the Faith of a Born-Again Christian.
What is the difference between Abramic and Abrahamic Faith?
{Although in the Bible Abraham is known as Abram at first, and then God is said to change his name to Abraham, the Quran has kept silent on this subject, neither affirming nor negating it.}
This makes the Faith in the Bible as Abrahamic and the Faith of the Quran as Abramic.
Human who wrote the Quran was not a recipient of the Pentecostal gift of Faith (fire).
Scripture clearly documents the moment in the life of Abram when God who called him out of his people to rescue humanity from perishing.
Genesis 12:1-4, The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
2 “I will make you into a great nation,
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.
This call came with a promise of eternity for all mankind.
The original covenant with Abram was the promise of multitude of great nation to his Credit.
The diminution of Abrahamic faith back to Abramic faith began in the year 325 AD with the Roman empire, skyrocketing from the year 600 to a peak in the 20th century.
The prophesy in scripture is absolutely on target!
Luke 18:8, “I tell you; he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when theSonofMan comes, will he findfaith on the earth?”
This was the land of Turkey (minor Asia, Anatolia) where the Apostles established seven churches before they were martyred for their faith in Christ, yet Globally 33% of humans still trust in the Abrahamic faith as the true faith that came from eternity.
Today, 21% of the population of the world are Abramic faith and growing very fast. Anti-Christ is at work in full force;
2 Thessalonians 2: 7-8, “For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.”
The population breakdown of the word Faith on earth today:
| Christianity 2.1 Billion (Faithful and Unfaithful to the Creator) God of Abraham, – 33% Jacob and David -Began in the 1st Century after Christ. |
| Islam 1.5 Billion – Claims the Creator is the God of Abram – began in the – 21% 6th Century after Christ – defeating the Roman Empire of Visible Christianity. |
Faith is a Living substance in Scripture and is not just written letter.
We humans who are logical people, if we cannot comprehend the reasoning or something does not add up, we discard the idea as meaningless and labels it as a lie.
This is what Theology, reasoning and academia of humanity has done to the word Faith. Humans are led to exercise an imaginary mind boggling and a powerless virtue.
For a human who has not received the Baptism of Pentecost, the word Faith in the English language and the revelation of the word Faith in scripture are the same.
In scripture, Faith is a Noun. It is a substance that is not visible to our eyes and operates in the heart of Humans.
Hebrews 11:3, “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”
So, faith in Scripture cannot be transferred from one human to another by any human means, but only through the action of a supernatural Grace (Holy Spirit).
The Work of Scripture is to dissect, extract from scripture and place ABRAHAMIC Faith in our hearts to continue our journey of life on planet earth.
Hebrews 4:12, “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
The Bible clearly documents; Christ is a descendant of Abram who was renamed Abraham with the promise of Redemption.
This is the surgical separation with the Double-edged sword of scriptural Faith from logical faith from humanity.
My Christianity is adamantly sure that the Gift of Faith poured upon the Apostles and the 3000 humans on the day of Pentecost is the Abrahamic Faith. The rest of the world is still in Abramic Faith.
Abram had a new Birth with a new promise when God changed his name.
Genesis 12, “The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
2 “I will make you into a great nation,
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.”
Abraham was 100 years old before Isaac was born. Abram had many decedents from children born to him before the promised offspring Isaac was born through Sara.
Scripture documents; Abraham’s wife Sara was barren till the true seed of “Faith” scheduled in the lineup of the Faithful in the womb of Eve.
The Creator scheduled every human egg that will return to Him. This was done before the Creator presented Eve to Adam.
So, the redemption of humanity was in place before the fall of Adam.
This scheduling of the faithful by the Creator in our first mother “Eve” was completed while Adam was compelled to sleep.
Genesis 2:21-22, “So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.”
This all took place on the 6th day of creation, for God rested on the 7th day.
The final and the perfect seed of Faith was placed in the womb of Mary while humanity was asleep. (not different to the deep sleep of Adam).
This Faith, scheduling in Mary who became the mother of Jesus is not a secret to the Faithful church today.
This hidden pearl was scheduled and revealed to the faithful who were in constant communion with the Maker since the days of Eve.
The Pearl of great Value in the Gospel according to Matthew.
Matthew 13:45-46, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 46 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.”
This secret is only revealed to the faithful who have embraced the scriptural faith and are Baptized through the spirit of Pentecost.
The next transition came when Rebecca, wife of Isaac was separated as the Faithful church from the clan of Abraham.
Esau who was the true Heir, sold his birth-right to Jacob for a plate of lentils, was the plan for the elite of humanity to reach the Kingdom sooner than planned.
Genesis 27:5, “Now Rebekah was listening as Isaac spoke to his son Esau. When Esau left for the open country to hunt game and bring it back, 6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Look, I overheard your father say to your brother Esau, 7 ‘Bring me some game and prepare me some tasty food to eat, so that I may give you my blessing in the presence of the Lord before I die.’ 8 Now, my son, listen carefully and do what I tell you: 9 Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so I can prepare some tasty food for your father, just the way he likes it. 10 Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may give you his blessing before he dies.”
When Christ appeared on earth, both Abram and Abraham’s descendants rejected Christ as the Redeemer promised to Humanity.
So, faith described in scripture, came upon humanity as promised by the Creator to be rejected by the very own original descendants of Abram.
Matthew 22, “Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: 2 “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. 3 He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come.
4 “Then he sent some more servants and said, ‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner: My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet.’
5 “But they paid no attention and went off—one to his field, another to his business. 6 The rest seized his servants, mistreated them and killed them. 7 The king was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
So, this is how we became adopted children of Abraham with full inheritance of the promise of eternity.
Matthew 22: 8-14.8 “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. 9 So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.’ 10 So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 12 He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’ The man was speechless.
13 “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
This was the plan for the Gentiles. We gentiles were idling on planet earth, when the invitation came to partake in the Masters wedding feast.
This parable reveals to us; even though we receive the Garment (salvation), we need to keep it clean (Sanctified) for the Wedding feast we are called to attend.
Matthew 22:14 “For many are invited, but few are chosen”
The wedding garment was made of Abrahamic faith.
If we read the above parable with the power of God we received on the day of Pentecost on the Apostles of Christ, we truly understand the redemption plan through Faith.
Can a man be born of human to this world with this Faith?
The bible is very clear the answer is “No”!
“Even Abram had to be Re-born as Abraham” to qualify for the Kingdom of the Creator.
John 3: 3-5, “Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.]”
4 “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”
5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.]”
The “Mother” spoken by Nicodemus and Jesus is the Faithful Church today on earth. The Bride to be on the day of Rapture.
What happened to Esau with Jacob? Genesis 27:37,
Isaac answered Esau, “I have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants, and I have sustained him with grain and new wine. So, what can I possibly do for you, my son?
Myself who was born in the third world: How did I receive this Faith that came upon the Apostles on the day of Pentecost?
I was born in the 19th century after Christ in the far-east where people only believed in Philosophical gods. Tracing their roots to Jainism, Hinduism and Buddhism.
In the 17th century the European nations colonized my world, with them came the Colonial faith, my ancestors were crowned (Baptized) with this Theological faith.
Colonial faith is the Theological-Abrahamic faith transferred by means of human to human. A “Godliness” without power.
The true Abrahamic faith has no part in Human reasoning, but a gift received on the day of Pentecost.
After embracing the Bible at the age 45, my heart was thirsting for this faith as I kept reading scripture. I was on fire with this New Faith. Living in the first world, I was able to confront many theologians of various faiths to arrive at my inner-most confidence of Born-again spirit of Christ.
The Quran is the holy book of Islam. It was written in the 7th century C.E. Its content is the wisdom of Allah as received and preached by Muhammad. The Quran is divided into chapters (called surah) and verses (ayat) of differing length and topics. It is also divided into sections (juz) as a 30-day reading schedule for Ramadan.
History records the life of Muhammad in detail, his writings, his life are available for anyone to verify and comprehend with the limited reasoning of human Brains.
Mohamud wrote the Quran in a span of 23 years, 2000 years after Moses.
Moses wrote the first five books of Scripture, which was not revealed to humanity till the day of Pentecost. Though scripture is now available to anyone, the revelation is only to those who embrace it with a contrite(penitent) spirit.
Without the baptism of the Pentecost, whatever Moses wrote is not revealed to humanity, but to the faithful who have received the new life in Christ scripture is kindergarten science.
The account of Abram-Abraham written by Moses is Biblical Scripture, revealed only to those who have received the Baptism of Pentecost.
The Bible closes with a majestic book of visions and dramatic views of the future. It was penned by the aged Apostle John around 95 AD and describes the new heaven and the new earth when God’s kingdom will embrace the universe and all rebellion and death will be a thing of the past.
As a collection of works, the Old Testament was composed over many years by numerous writers. The texts that comprise the Old Testament are believed to have been written over a thousand-year period roughly spanning the mid-second to the mid-first millennium BC.
The total 66 books of scripture were written by 40 human writers inspired by one single Author. The Creator of Humanity.
A human being living today reading the above paragraphs is able to comprehend the time line of the scripture available to understand the difference of Colonial faith to true Abrahamic faith.
We can clearly see the oldest scripture available to humanity is the old testament written by Moses, 1500 years before Christ and the Quran was written 700 years after Christ.
The life of Abram written in the Quran is 2200 years after Moses, also the covenant promised to Abraham was accomplished in Jesus 600 years before the Quran.
Human who wrote the Quran was not a recipient of the Pentecostal fire.
Abram was 2000 years before Christ, Bible clearly says Abram was called out from his people to inherit a new land.
The bible clearly reveals to the faithful that this new land is the new earth promised to those who accept the free gift of Salvation through Christ.
Revelation 21:1-4, Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
After the year 325 AD, the Christian faith of the Apostles was sabotaged by the Christian (Clergy) who married the Roman state to become a powerful empire with a form of Christianity as the Religion of the Empire.
With this marriage came the theology of civilization of the Greek understanding of faith coming from great philosophers. Plato in 428 BC and Aristotle in 322 BC.
With this philosophy of Jainism (Hinduism and Buddhism) the Roman fathers, using this theology, deviated to teach the faithful “Salvation through good-works”.
Jesus taught our Redemption as the fulfilment of the Abrahamic Faith. “Obedience rather than sacrifice”
1 Samuel 15, 22-25, “But Samuel replied:
“Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
as much as in obeying the Lord?
To obey is better than sacrifice,
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,
and arrogance like the evil of idolatry.
Because you have rejected the word of the Lord,
he has rejected you as king.”
Christianity of the Faithful from Pentecost did not have the word Virtue in their vocabulary. Yet the Roman faith teach virtues to their followers.
The first Virtue taught in Jainism is “do not hurt your fellow-men.”
This virtue is called “Ahimsa”
Virtues are practiced by all religions including the Clergy (Celibacy).
This virtue is not in scripture, so it is null and void in my Christianity.
“Jesus taught the command “do unto others as for yourself”.
Matthew 25:40, “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
Humans cannot do this on their own because of our Corrupt Hearts.
Jesus taught the Born-again of His spirit, so he could operate in us to live according to His righteousness.
Religious theological faith that arrived in the third world with the Colonizers of nations, a form of theological faith without the power of the Spirit.
The true Abrahamic faith of Christianity shall vanish from this earth on the day of Rapture of the Faithful Church.
Conclusion:
My Christianity is all about forgiveness for our disobedience to an omnipotent, omniscience and omnipresent Maker.
This is only possible through a born-again experience through scripture. No other human can Absolve our sin against another without the Baptism of Pentecost.
Born-again faith is the only Christianity that transform the corrupted heart to a sanctified soul, with complete forgiveness for the fallen human.
Faithful who shall leave this earth on the day of Rapture shall be the recipients of the new earth.
The time of Rapture shall be the mid-night of the 7th day of creation.
Today we are on the 11th hour of the 7th day.
All faithful shall see this day and the rest of humanity will continue on this earth with wickedness skyrocketing to the dreadful end.
2 Thessalonians 2; 7-8, “For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.”
