  8. John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full or abundantly. Eternal Life ProspectiveYeshua/Jesus (ZOI) World/Temporal Satan/Humanism (BIOS) B: I drive safely because I don’t need another ticket. Z: I drive safely to protect others and myself from harm. B: I don’t fool around because a divorce would bankrupt me. Z: I don’t fool around because I love and honor my spouse. B: The Law of Moses has been nailed to the cross. Z: Through the Law I learn to submit to the Holy Spirit in Love

  9. God’s Heart for Israel Romans 9:1-5 I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it in the Holy Spirit— I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race, the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen. Romans 11:12-25 I am talking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them.

  10. Let’s make a Paradigm Shift: W: Why don’t the Jewish people get it? E: How can the Church better help Jewish people find Jesus? Canaanites and Egypt Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans Roman Church State: Replacement Theology: 300 AD and after: condemned Jews, accusing them of being idolaters, torturers, spiritually deaf, blasphemers, gluttons, adulterers, canibals, Christ-killers, and beyond God's forgiveness. With the rise of the Church-State, certain religio-political attitudes such as Jesus ruling the world through the Roman Christian government became evident in the Church. Crusades Spanish Inquisition Russian Pogroms Protestant Reformation- Martin Luther Anti-Semitism’ Holocaust-Lutheran Church and World-wide Church Islamic and Arab Wars and Terrorism Parable of the Muslim and Christian Post 911

  11. Genesis 1:1: In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth… Genesis 1:23-25 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: …wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. Genesis 1:30-2:4 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. … Genesis 1:30-2:4 And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.

  12. Genesis 1:26-28 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over ..every living creature that moves on the ground.” Genesis 2:24-3:1 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

  13. Genesis 2:14-18 And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.” Genesis 3:3-5 (Satan) You will not surely die the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

  14. Genesis 3:7-10 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. But the LORD God called to the man, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.” Genesis 3:13-15 The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”

  15. World/Temporal Satan/Humanism (BIOS) John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; Ezekiel 28:12-17 (Satan) You were the model (image) of perfection..You were in Eden, the garden of God; You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. .. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, Genesis 3:20-4:1 The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. And the LORD God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to ..take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” Genesis 3:20-4:1 So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken

  16. Free Will: Blessing or Curse The Journey Home is a choice! X 2 Corinthians 4:4-5 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Corinthians 11:13-16 for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.

  17. John 14:6-7 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” John 6:46-48 I tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life. Colossians 1:15-19 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church The Kingdom of God

  18. When God talks about Israel he is talking about the Gentiles And most importantly he is talking about you! Genesis 12:1-2 The LORD had said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you. Genesis 15:5-6 Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness. Genesis 15:13-14 Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years. But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions. Exodus 3:6-8 So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land,a land flowing with milk and honey —the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.

  19. Deuteronomy 11:25-29 See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse— the blessing if you obey the commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today; the curse if you disobey the commands Jeremiah 5:17-19 “ As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your own land, so now you will serve foreigners in a land not your own. Zechariah 8:11-12 The seed will grow well, the vine will yield its fruit ..As you have been an object of cursing among the nations, O Judah and Israel, so will I save you, and you will be a blessing. Do not be afraid, but let your hands be strong.” Isaiah 66:7-9 Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Ezekiel 36:35-36 This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden

  20. Free Will: Blessing or Curse Follow Jesus back home!

  21. Revelation 21:2-14 Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God,and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, … On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. …The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

  22. Revelation 22:13-16 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. “Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.” to
