Abba said SHALOAH/SHALOHA

This journey began yesterday after the post "Vision of Americans"
http://academysounds.blogspot.com/2009/02/vision-of-americans-not-listening.html

After we finished posting Abba said SHALOAH I emailed a friend and biblical Hebrew scholar to find out the meaning of the word.

SHALOAH = SILAS

So off we go to do to some research on Silas. In the New Testament Silas is called a prophet and he accompanied Paul on some of his trips. In some passages he is also called the latin name "Silvanus" , "of the forest", "of the woods". Silvanus was also the name of one of the Seventy Apostles that followed Jesus. Apostle, Prophet, Scribe and later became a Bishop. He is now known as Saint Silas or Saint Silvanus.

His feast day is January 26th (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) the same day that the prophecy was fulfilled about Pakistan. http://academysounds.blogspot.com/2009/01/god-warned-pakistan.html

THE RIDER



I like this video above because it reminds me of when I was a child riding along the beach in Spain.

A selection of passages

Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the brothers. Acts 15:31-33 With the help of Silas, whom I regard as a faithful brother, I have written to you briefly, encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. 1 Peter 5:12

After I typed the passages I was pondering on the connection of Shaloah, Silas and the passages.

Then Abba said adamantly 'Anti-Christ'

This was the first time that Abba had ever used this word so I was surprised to say the least. I left the message to see if our father would give us anymore information to clarify his meaning and intention.

One of the books found in the Nag Hammadi Library is called 'The Teachings of Silvanus"

Silas is also a character in the book and film Da Vinci Code.



Later in the evening Abba said "Anyone that does not accept you as the Prophet is an anti-christ."

SHALOHA

Today, I felt inspired to look again at this word Shaloah and I discovered that there is a word that sounds the same and it is SHALOHA with the h and a transposed. The word is used by Jewish Hawaiins as an acknowledgment that can be used to say hello, goodbye, or peace a synthesis of shalom and aloha which are synonymous.

There is also a synagogue called Temple Emanu-El in Hawaii and their web address is http://www.shaloha.com/

HAWAII now the message makes sense.

Some scholars believe that Silas wrote the letters to the Thessalonians so now let us see what is written here that connects us with Hawaii. Of course, the man of lawlessness.


THE MAN OF LAWLESSNESS

Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for (that day will not come) until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

Don't you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 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. 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 coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.

Stand Firm

But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth. He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter. May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thessalonians 2

Who Is The Restrainer?



The above video and most biblical scholars interpret the "FALLING AWAY' as a falling away from the Church. However, the falling away is about the falling away from the SACRED into the profane. The word religion does not exist in biblical Hebrew. If you look for the first time that APOSTASY is mentioned in the bible, then look at its original translation. The word APOSTASY in Hebrew is 'backsliding' 'turning away' from God, in Greek it meant 'falling away' and as we know we can have a sacred union with God without being part of any religion or Church. In fact, the original word meant community not Church.

In Hebrew teshuvah means 'return' it is sometimes translated as 'repentance'. As we know this word repentance as taken its toll on humanity. I prefer returning to the sacred and in so doing returning to God. This is much warmer and more loving to express the ascent of the Tree of Life by returning to the source of all creation. Repentance sounds like punishment and Returning expounds the spiritual journey in all its wonder and mystery. Returning from being to becoming the best that we can be. The Apostles knew that they were in training to become a Christ and to have the mind and heart of Christ. Modern day spiritual people call this 'Christ Consciousness" as a state of being just like heaven and hell are states of being.

Apostasy can be viewed as falling into profanity and away from the sacred. Many religious people live in profanity and do not treat all creation as sacred. Those that did not live in harmony and honour Mother earth in biblical times were called wicked. The unbelievers were those that did not embrace the sacred metaphysical and mystical realities.

Apostasy -v- Godliness
Fallen -v- Returned
Profane -v- Sacred
Lost -v- Found
Fragmented -v- Whole
Sick -v- Healed
Wicked -v- Righteous


"Do not put out the Spirit's fire; do not treat prophecies with contempt. Test everything. Hold on to the good. Avoid every kind of evil. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through.1 Thess 5:19-23

This is post 70 in 2009. 70 = AYIN = EYE

The Greek language assigned the vowel 'O' to the letter.

Our LORD conceals and reveals in perfect timing.
