Dear fellow Catholics, we can't be against Our Creator GOD so please take this seriously.
The Roman empire was working through the papacy to control people, And obviously they kept them in the dark in regard to no teaching them the Holy Scripture, twisted it and distorted it not teaching them what really the Scripture says the right Word of God. And that's how they had their control over people by keeping them blinded, and in the dark in regard to the Word of God, The True Gospel of Jesus Christ.
They created a system of control. And that system of control was the Catholic Church. It's a counterfeit church. Really it's a counterfeit Christ. And all of their doctrines, all of their teachings really were Against True Christianity. But when the protestant reformation happened, they created the Jesuit order to remove the reformation. To counter and attack the Reformation. (See video for more..)
‼️⚠️HEAR THIS MESSAGE FROM ST. GREGORY THE GREAT of 590 AD.
"Whoever Calls Himself the Universal Bishop, Or Desires this Title, Is, By His Pride, The Precursor Of Antichrist, Because He Thus Attempts To Raise Himself Above The Others...Like A God"
- St. Gregory The Great (AD 590)
Scripture⮕‼️⚠️ Thessalonians 2:4 READ CAREFULLY.⮕‼️⚠️He will oppose and will exalt himself above every so-called God or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, claiming that he himself is God.
This following video is a warning about a dangerous agenda that is at play within Christendom. It is made to show the truth, not to slander any individuals within Catholicism. But to help people come out of deception."
They really counterfeit Christianity and they controlled Christianity. And they ruled over the kings of the earth. That really is mystery Babylon. I am not against Catholics but what we have is a mystery Babylonian Religion. It's mystery Babylon, the Great. What I mean by that is there is a direct connection between Egypt, Greece and Rome. Working through the papacy, it's a continuation of mystery Babylonian doctrines. I mean, you have, Mary a co-mediatrix, right? Holding Christ. Well, it's not Christ, it's Horus brought forth, it's mystery Babylon. It's the worship of the Queen of heaven. Really, it's Semiramis, and Ni**od, Babylonian Luciferian doctrine. So, on the one hand they want to destroy Christianity. On the other hand, they want to control Christianity. So that's what's been happening here.
The Papacy has created a false Gospel to keep people in the dark, to keep them blinded. And then they're bring in a counterfeit Christianity, a false gospel. That ultimately brings them under the control of the Pope, which is also a type of Pharaoh. But they bring everyone, everyone under the control of the Pope, which is really the Roman Empire. Caesar. And the Papacy is well Caesar's palace really. I finally woke up. I finally woke up. I can see the truth. I've been exposing the Jesuits for years. They are under control of very, very powerful Roman bloodlines. From the very beginning, of course, from the very beginning of Jesuits order, they were controlled by Roman bloodlines. And that's what's in control here. And they are satanic, they are Luciferin, at the high levels,
‼️⚠️Scripture Proves⮕‼️⚠️ 'For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.'- (Eph.6:12)

They are Luciferian, they are Babylonian. What they did was they brought the nations of the earth under the control of the bishops and cardinals and priests to really control the nations of the earth, but also blind them and keep them in the dark in regard to the true gospel of Jesus Christ. So the Roman empire bloodlines were in control of the Catholic Church, and they were really controlling the monarchs because when you control a monarch, you control that nation, that's it, period. But listen. But listen, all of this goes back to Rome. It goes back to the Roman Empire. And these Knighthoods are very very powerful, very powerful in regard to the structure. I do believe that Pope Francis is the general of the Jesuits of Rome. But it goes back to the Roman Empire.
It goes right back to the ancient Roman Empire. And these high bloodlines, they created the Catholic Church to control Christianity, to destroy Christianity, really ...All across the earth. And THAT REALLY IS THE TRUTH. I'm sure that this revelation will surprise many people. But I have to bring it out, I have to. Remember, it's the Roman..Roman Catholic Church. The ancient Roman bloodlines of Rome. And they used that to control the monarchs of the Earth. To keep people blinded, really, and in the dark. In regard to the Holy Scriptures. They withheld that. They would not preach or teach that So, they brought a counterfeit gospel. And what they did was they want everyone to be subject to the Pope of Rome. And he had authority to excommunicate people from heaven itself. He could bind and loose if you did not submit to his cardinals or bishops or priests, you would be ex-communicated from heaven. WELL THAT IS NOT WHAT JESUS CHRIST TAUGHT. Jesus Christ taught that on this rock, I will build my church. And that was that. He was the Christ, the Son of the Living GOD. And the gates of Hell/Hades will not prevail against it. And Jesus said, on this rock I will build my church.
Well, of course, the Papacy used that and abused that and twisted that to teach that. If you don't submit to the Pope of Rome, then you will be ex-communicated. So, it was just a way of controlling people really, for generations and generations and generations.
The High Roman bloodlines of Italy, they created the Jesuit order,. Look go to the church of the Gesu, Go to the church of Gesu in Rome, the Mother Church of the Jesuits, right? A top of that. A top of it. You see the Farnese bloodline. What does that reveal to you? ..(see video continuation)
Roman empire continued All across the earth . From the creation of the Papacy to attack Christianity and then to ultimately brings in the false gospel to blind people and keep them in the dark.

Proverbs 4:23. 23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.

Worth knowing.. When you really love God no matter if it's a very long message you will still listen to Him.💖
----[PT.1]
Since the Old Testament writings God had not spoken to man for over 400 years since the last prophet. But He is faithful and keeps his promises and can do the expected in an unexpected way.

If God wanted man to know him he would have to communicate with mankind. Since we do not have the capability to contact him or know him on our own, he would have to take the initiative.

The Bible says in Rom.3:10 "There is none righteous, no, not one there is none who understands. There is none who seek after God."

If God wanted man to comprehend and see the invisible infinite God he would of necessity need to be seen, heard or touched. This life and revelation was declared in a unique way by his son.

I John 1:1-4 "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life 2 the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us 3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. 4 And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.

John the apostle describes what he and the others close to Jesus experienced.

To our ears To our ears = He spoke words of life Jesus was profound yet simple he had perfect words for every situation. Proverbs says every word of God is pure . It was truth not as the religious leaders who invented their our interpretation He spoke differently it was with authority you have heard it said but I say to you. They heard the words of eternal life Jesus said my words are spirit and they are life. If we hear his words and apply them they will change our life to be more like his.

The spiritual life he spoke of was practical not only for the hereafter. He met the deepest needs of our heart as well as our body when he fed 5,000

To our eyes To our eyes = means they gazed intently with awe. They saw a living example of deity that their own forefathers described. The eternal creator walking among them but hidden behind flesh. They learned what God was like by watching him, how He conducted himself with people. They saw the compassion of God in his mercy as well as his strictness towards those who misrepresented what he said.

They watched him control nature asking themselves as he calmed the waters what manner of man is this?

They watched his reaction toward death he treated it not as a friend but as an enemy. He cried over it and rejoiced when life was brought back.

Our hands have handled = Our hands have handled = They were able to touch him and he touched them. John who writes this was the one who laid his head on his chest to be close to him. they experienced an openness a kindness a gentleness unlike any other. They lived with him as they traveled they were his family they shared food with him. so many times we try to prove his deity when we forget he was fully human as well, this is what makes known the mystery God was manifested in the flesh.

The light shined in a dark place and the darkness comprehended it not.

The word of life, the message is the person. Unlike other religions and teachers like Buddha, Confucius , Baha'u'llah or Mohammed. They taught about their own perception of God. Christ revealed God in all his glory and truth, as he was God the invisible spirit who came as man. this is what he is communicating to us today that occurred when they were alive.

His purpose was to give us joy life more abundantly a quality of life that is not dictated by our circumstances but one that has victory over anything the world sets before us. A contentment that is supernatural. Also his purpose was give us fellowship with himself.

This is the God mankind is seeking. He didn’t come to earth to enforce authority but to bridge the gap. He came in meekness and humility not don’t you know who I am, I’m God obey me!

The story starts with a visitation, and a miracle. God begins his promise of the messiah with a righteous family. Luke 1:5-17 Zecharias and Elizabeth were righteous before God blameless in the commandments faithful in their serving him. They were also very old with no children as Elizabeth was barren. Because of this fact they were looked down upon in their culture, since having no children meant you did not have Gods blessing. But this was not so with God. Elizabeth who longed for a child for so many years was barren and was old enough not to consider this any longer; as her husband served as priest their prayers were answered. Mary, Elizabeth's relative who was also a servant, young and engaged to be married receives a child unexpectedly as well 6 moths after her.

In vs.8-9 Luke records tells us that Zecharias was serving as the priest when the lot fell on him to burn coals. In 1 Chron. 24 King David took the tribe of Levi and divided them into 24 groups each having a turn to serve in the temple ( every year 26 people took 2 weeks to serve) ever since the 2 sons of Aaron died they tied a rope around the ankle of those entering the holy place just in case something went wrong they could pull them out.

The Rabbis developed a story- if the incense put on the coals was not acceptable, just before the priest would die an angel would appear to their right . This is what we see takes place with Zacharias.

Luke 1:11-12 "Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him." He is fearful and thinks his time is up, that he offered strange fire or did something wrong.

This will be the first of a number of angelic appearances that would herald the savior and the gospel to man.

Luke 1:13 "But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John."

It was Zecharias prayer to have a child, here he is ministering with incense a symbol of prayer and the angel tells him his prayer was heard and will be answered. His sons name will be called John which means favor or grace of Yahweh.

Names in the Hebrew can have great significance, Zecharias name means the Lord remembers, Elizabeth his wife’s name means oath of God or promise.

vs.14 John will bring joy and gladness. Jesus called John the greatest prophet to ever live. He will be the voice crying out in the wilderness preparing the people to receive their Messiah. He alone had this privilege.

Vs.15 this child will be unusual in that he will be filled with the Spirit from the womb. He was chosen for ministry and will have Gods presence from the beginning. He will be a Nazarite which is to be separate to God like Samson and Samuel (Judg.13:5,14; 1 Sam.1:11).

Luke 1:17 "He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, 'to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord." John labored in the Spirit and power of the former prophet by calling people to repentance and preparing them for the salvation that Christ would later bring.

He will minister in the same function and office as Elijah turning people back to each other in the family as well as to God through repentance . He was to bring as community of believers together to be ready for the Lords appearance through their baptism of repentance. The baptismal rites meaning was to identify someone with a person, a people or a message. John would express all three. A people- a remnant unto God. His message-one of repentance. And the person -who would be identified as the Messiah through his baptism. In which he was revealed to Israel by a voice from God saying this is my beloved Son in whom I’m well pleased and the Holy Spirit coming in a visible form descending like a dove. Interesting that a dove is faithful to its mate for a life time.

Luke 1:18-19 And Zacharias said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."19 And the angel answered and said to him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and was sent to speak to you and bring you these glad tidings.

Zecharias expresses doubt to the angels promise by asking how this is possible since both he and his wife are to old. He is made mute until the time of his birth because he did not accept the good news in faith.

Vs.22 he comes out of the temple not speaking and everyone was amazed he was still alive being inside the temple so long and they realized he had some kind of spiritual experience inside.

Vs.26-28 after 6 months the same angel is sent to Nazareth to a virgin , Mary who is engaged to be married to Joseph, of the house of David. It is here where we have the biblical account of the choosing of the one who will bear the son of God who will come from heaven.

Luke 1:28-33 And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!"29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was.30 Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.31 "And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus.32 "He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.33 "And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end."

vs.28 she is greeted as one who is favored above all other woman chosen to carry one from eternity past. Her own creator.

Vs.31 The promise is that she will become pregnant and bring forth the one who will be salvation. Isa.7:14 God will be with us on earth.

Vs.32-33 he will be called the son of the most high, inheriting the throne of David. Isa.9:6 his kingdom will have no end speaking of what he began at his first advent and the fulfillment at his 2nd advent with him personally being here to rule.

In the fullness of time God sends forth his son from heaven to earth. in 2 Cor.8:9 about him" being rich , yet for your sakes he became poor, so that through his poverty you might become rich".

From having full control being rich beyond measure he put aside all that he once had and operated from dependency upon the father as any other human who would follow God. His ministry was one of humility submitted to the fathers will. Coming not as an angel to redeem angels but as a man flesh and blood to rescue mankind. How far of a descent was this for his rescue?

Phil. 2:5 "Who being in the form of God did not consider it robbery to be equal with God. 7: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: notice that the one he is describing first existed in the nature of God and then discarded his reputation taking on the form (nature ) , another form of a servant, being made a man. The same one who was in the form of God made himself of no reputation. The phrase "the form of a servant" is identical in its content of "the form of God". The former "form" asserting all that makes God who he is, he existed in. The later "form" being all that makes one a servant he was.

In becoming a man something changed since he was not in a servant role to the Father before he became man. This was a change of position not a change in nature. He as God could not empty himself of his essential nature since unchangeableness is part of this. All his attributes are eternal so he could not eliminate any but he could put them aside in using them as he entered time and space.

This was not an emptying of his deity, as a substance change of nature but a putting aside of his position. The deity of the Son in no ways ceased because of his taking on a human form. By giving up his independent use of his divine attributes he became a slave depending mostly on the H. Spirit for his strength and the Father for his instructions. When one becomes a servant they do not give up their skills but submit to another in a higher position.

Luke 1:34-38 Then Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I do not know a man?"

This wording indicates her not knowing her husband in sexual union. What is extraordinary and supernatural to man is ordinary to God.

vs.35 And the angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.36 "Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. 37 "For with God nothing will be impossible."38 Then Mary said, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her."

It will be by the Holy Spirit's power covering and protecting her that the Son of God can be born. Son of God, the only begotten son, meaning to be absolutely unique having the very nature of God himself. The Holy Spirit who is God protected his sinlessness as God the Son entered the womb and the egg of Mary brought to life by the Holy Spirit . He took upon himself a human nature in addition to his divine nature he already existed in. Jesus was the real son of Mary, being the son of man and he was the real son of the Father, being the son of God from eternity. The mystery is eternity becoming subject to time ,deity united with humanity an unnatural but not an impossible union.

The means of the incarnation involved the Holy Spirit. When Mary asked how can this be since she was a virgin and had no sexual relations with a man for this to be possible. Gabriels reply was the H. Spirit will overshadow her, it will be a miraculous conception unlike any other, not a miraculous birth.

The question arises of Mary's not understanding this being possible. Why was Zacharias punished being made mute and she was not? This was a event that never took place in the history of mankind, to ask how this is possible was not a doubt but a genuine not understanding Gods ability for the miraculous. Zacharias knew of God making older people who were barren fruitful, such as with Abraham and Sarah. He was priest who knew better.

A promise from God is always going to be kept-- but it will come in his timing because his purposes are always perfect. Gal 4:4-5 “But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.” Things were about to change in Israel. The son who existed in heaven was sent to earth by the Father on a short term mission that would have everlasting affects.

The virgin birth is unique as Jesus took on a new nature, a human one. In like fashion we all are barren and empty until we are spiritually reborn regenerated from Gods holy Spirit. We take on a new spiritual nature. Mary’s birth was a physical one where ours is a spiritual one, both are miracles. The greater of course being that God took on the nature of man to physically walk among us.

Matt. 1:18-21 "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. "And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us." Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.

Isa. 9:6 tells us a child would be born, this refers to his birth and humanity. It also says a son will be given, this refers to his nature as deity since he already was God the Son in His pre-existence. He is sent from heaven as the son. So he had a change of state from the position of God ruling to a position of a servant as a human. He took on the very existence in which what was exclusive to human beings, this now became his own experience.

vs.38 Mary submits to what she does not understand for the Lord to accomplish his purpose, she then visits Elizabeth stays with her for 3 months (v.39-56).

Luke 1:46-49 And Mary said: "My soul magnifies the Lord, And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant; for behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed. For He who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is His name."

Luke.2:1 Tells us Israel was under Roman occupation. They are looking for a deliverer they expect a Messiah to lead an overthrow of the Roman government. Mary and Joseph are to register in their own city of birth because of a decree of Ceasar Augustus.

V.4 Bethlehem is called the house of bread (David's house) the bread of life came from heaven (Jn.6) and is born in the house of bread Mic.5:2.

V.6 "So it was, while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered." We see that Mary did not give birth immediately but they had waited for her to go into labor.

V.7 they are turned away from the inn because of a massive influx of people registering and are forced to bring him to the only shelter in the area, a manger which has animals. The inn keeper turned them down, if only he knew that he missed the birth of his Messiah.

V.8 shepherds in the field (Dec.25? winters can sometimes be mild) are privileged to the first appearance of the angel announcing the good news outside the family. Why did the angels first reveal this message to shepherds and not to others? Because they were in charge of the flocks, the shepherds took care of the lambs that were to be used in the temple for sacrifice, above all the people shepherds can be trusted. This is why God picked David, He was a shepherd that became king. Shepherds have a heart for the flock and know how to care for them, God sees this translated to people. It was David in Ps.23 who said, the Lord is my shepherd as he walked through troubles that threatened his life. David gives us meaning in God concern for us in our trials. Jesus is called the chief shepherd and we are called His sheep and lambs in Scripture in reference to his guidance and protection as he gathers us together. This shepherd became a lamb to identify with his sheep that he was to guide on earth to heavenly kingdom.

Vs.9 the glory of the Lord the visible manifestation of Gods presence appears. They fear (like Israel at Mt. Sinai when God came down in glory on the mountain, they did not want to come near it). Now instead, the angel is directing them to come near and see what has happened, to behold him. Angels break out singing praises, Glory to God, Peace is given to those who God is well pleased with, those who repent. These shepherds won’t miss the first Christmas. The age of grace is going to be instituted. Salvation has come as a free gift.

Luke 2:11-12 "For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."12 "And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger."

A king, a savior is born unannounced to the important people of the world. He's not presented to the governments and rulers but to humble servants. What do they see when they visit the manger a baby that looks like any other, but he is the creator, the king of kings come to earth.

A sign is given, a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths. What kind of sign is this? Well these cloths were burial cloths that were left in caves outside the city. The sign of his birth would prophecy his death. The Jews buried people in caves. They didn’t have separate buildings for animals. The sign was where he was born, it will be the same way he will also be buried. His birth was one of humiliation, to be born with only two human witnesses, among the animals without the comfort of a home. His death will be an exaltation as he will be buried in a rich mans cave, a transition which will eventually put him be back in his position he previously had in heaven.

The typology is noticeable as Jesus being the last Adam was born among the animals that were named by Adam, Adam was brought from the earth among the animals having the honor to name them and rule over them. Paul explains the dichotomy further in1 Cor. 15:47 “The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven.”

The shepherds hurry to the manger, His place of birth and stare at this newborn innocent child who would one day be beaten to a pulp and die for them. The little hands that held onto its mothers like any other newborn would one day have spikes driven through them. He would die the same way He entered the world, in a completely selfless act innocent of what he was accused of. Luke 2:17-19 "Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying which was told them concerning this Child. And all those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.

vs.17-20 the shepherds quickly go into the town Bethlehem they will tell everyone what they saw and heard .

vs. 19 Mary kept all these things to herself treasuring them secretly not understanding the full extent of this event. The shepherds went away glorifying god and telling others. They were the first evangelists telling the people the message the angels gave.

His coming birth was announced to shepherds in the field guarding their flocks by the angel Gabriel. Not out loud in the town square or published in the newspapers although it was in scripture. If any one of us were to choose where we would be born it certainly would not be among the poor and with animals especially if we were royalty. We’d choose a mansion with the best doctors available surrounded by our royal subjects. We’d announce our arrival by advertising. Instead, God's style was picking a remote but righteous family, making a unmarried woman pregnant without a man involved.

Simeon had been waiting in Jerusalem assured by the Holy Spirit to see seen the salvation of the Lord before he died .

This is the first person Jesus is brought to, as Mary was confined basically to the cave. Lev. 12:2-4-- on the eighth day Jesus was circumcised. According to Lev 12:4 'She shall then continue in the blood of her purification thirty-three days.

Any participation of the holy things were not allowed, this signified that our original corruption. For the days up until the circumcision Mary was unable to have contact with others.

Among the Hebrews a mother was required to remain at home for about forty days after the birth of a male child So it was on the fortieth day, after the circumcision she was able to go to the temple and bring a poor households offering of two pigeons. Christ's parents were so poor that they were not able to bring a lamb for a burnt-offering destroying the myth that Jesus was affluent.

She presented herself with her baby for their purification in the Temple. There she met Simeon and the prophetess Anna and heard their thanksgiving and prophecy

Without the circumcision that was the token of the Abrahamic covenant Christ would not have been permitted to enter either synagogue or temple, and no Jew would have listened to him preach.

God will always lead those by the spirit that have been walking by the spirit to see the great things he will do. Luke 2:27-32 “So he[Simeon] came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law, he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said: “Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word; For my eyes have seen Your salvation Which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.

All nations were to receive the revelation because we are all in the same predicament together. The Savior is Jesus-our salvation is in a person.

After Jesus was circumcised and Mary sacrificed because of her being unclean, after her purification time they went to the temple to dedicate the first born of the womb to the Lord and brought him to Simeon. He had been looking for the salvation to come to Israel

Luke 2:30-33 "For my eyes have seen Your salvation. Which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel." And Joseph and His mother marveled at those things which were spoken of Him."

For 400 hundred years God has been silent with no prophets proclaiming messages to Israel and a baby is born and a child shall lead them. A savior who will not bring salvation by his teachings , not by a church although they point to him. But by himself, salvation of all mankind is in a person Jesus whose name means salvation. Because he will save his people from their sins. He didn’t come to restore a temple made in stone but became the living tabernacle in which the glory of God would dwell and reveal himself to people.

Luke 2:34-35 "Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, "Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against ." That sign was the last one given the Israel, the resurrection.

Numbers 24:17 "I see Him, but not now; I behold Him, but not near; a Star shall come out of Jacob; a Scepter shall rise out of Israel, and batter the brow of Moab, and destroy all the sons of tumult." This is a vision which spans over 1,500 years. This star was representative of a person coming from the lineage of Jacob who has glory. Jacob who birthed Israel the nation, Salvation is of the Jews. You can join a religion but only forgiveness of sins (salvation) comes through Israel's Messiah....
