Neither a faith nor a religion about Jesus will be able to cope with the present day of lawlessness; how much more catastrophic will such faith be confronted by "the man of lawlessness." That day and that person will reveal all the false images about Jesus, created by fanciful and vain imaginations. The whole world, including all the major religions, has an endless catalogue of notions about Jesus: Jesus is black, Jesus is Hindu, Jesus is buddha, Jesus is gay, Jesus is married... Truly, the worldly imagination has been captured by these notions. The fate of those images will be the same as the golden calf at the base of the mountain: like the gold of the people, they will be gathered, melted, cast forth in a marvelous new form... But, that final image will be ground into fine dust (when the righteousness of Moses is restored...)---then dissolved---and the speculators will drink what they have brewed.
Will the real Jesus stand up...please!
The faith and religion of Jesus, the Word of his Father which he lived out, will overcome the man of lawlessness. Yeshua, The Living Torah, asked, "When I return, will I find faith?" Seems right to ponder during the Counting of the Omer what sort of faith that might be...
Shabbat Shalom!
Gathering all Israel to fulfillment of "The Two Sticks"
