CHAPTER 5
FLESH VERSUS SPIRIT
Back to Home
The
"GOLDEN RULE" that what applies to "flesh", the opposite applies to the matters of "spirit" is illustrated further to give the reader a thorough grasp of the principles. Thus:-1. The creator demi-god of male and female called "Yahweh", BRAHMA, etc. has one name and is well-known for being "jealous and revengeful"; whilst the Emanator of souls called God, PAARBRAHM, Allah, RAM, etc. has many names according to the Personality and Beneficiary qualities that He displays and He is "Loving and Merciful".
2. Holy books such as written "Torahs", VEDAS, etc. are learnt from a "GURU" by the "letters" of the holy books and exceptions to the laws are made by the GURU, Rabbi or PANDIT, in the Light of Oral Torah or Holy Spirit; whilst Gospel is ushered in by an "anointed Christ, called a "SATGURU" in "Panjabi" and the people understand It only by the grace of God(BAL RAM JEO). Gospel, unlike the "letters" that could be taught in the universities, is "preached", like a Sower, by the Roving Preachers called the Royal Priests, through heart-to-heart discussions in Holy Spirit and Its "Spiritual Principles, The Word" has no exceptions but the Christs being the Omnipotent Ambassadors of God can exercise their Will in Mercy, the Chief Quality of God. Thus, as a Rabbi or PANDIT can make exceptions in the moral laws similarly a Christ can make an exception in the "Will of God". In learning the Secrets of Gospel one has to be impartial and unbiased like a little child.
3. VEDAS of BRAHMA are taught by the incarnation of demi-god "VISHNU"; Shri Ram Chanderji, the moon(CHAND) of the Sun(RAM or God) and Moses also based his moral laws on the "Word of God" i.e. Moses put on Christ and wrote the Torah or Moses Himself saw the Face of God but showed the back to the people. Rabbis and PANDITS, just the priests or GURUS, being the "teachers" of the moral laws are also called the witness to the "Light", but not the "Light" e.g. John, the Baptist, an ideal Levi priest of Moses. Whilst God being "Eternal" and the very Source of all, He Himself sends His Own anointed Royal Priest or Christ to spread "His Word", the very Light of the light of moon, when the priests of Moses had become corrupt, inefficient and lightless i.e. the old cloth, the written Torah, had developed holes(corruptions). Thus, God has no incarnation but His Omnipotent Ambassador Jesus came to fulfil the law i.e. to darn the holes as the first bishop St.Stephen was doing in the name of Jesus that annoyed the corrupt Temple priests. Thus, Jesus did not come to either replace or destroy the moral laws but to rectify them. Gospel is also the "Oral Torah", New Cloth, New Wine or the New Treasures - Matt.13.52.
4. Moral laws being for the once-born natural children of flesh that they are based upon animal instincts such as an "eye for an eye" and people seek the praises of men for their "extrinsic status or values". It is for the sake of moral dignity that men fight with each other and get killed. Whilst the "Spiritual Principles or His Word" are based upon "common sense or spirit", in which the enemy is subdued by appealing to his "conscience". A person without "conscience" is a "saltless" person and such a person cannot be a religious person. Such persons should be avoided as Jesus stressed this by instructing His disciples to shake the very dust of the village that does not honour you in My name.
5. Moral laws being the "letters" make the men of letters arrogant or swollen headed as the Pharisee Simon who invited Jesus into his house was; whilst the matters of spirit being common sense make appeal to ones heart e.g. the Parable of the wounded person and the Samaritan who looked after him. Recently in May, 92, I read on Teletext the news that a Jewish house in Jerusalem caught fire on Sabbath and the Jew did nothing but went to consult the Rabbi. By the time Rabbi gave him the permission to call the fire brigade, three houses got burnt down i.e. "Letter killeth, spirit giveth life". Thus, the Jews were and they are still the men of "letters" whilst the Samaritans who were not allowed to the inner circle of the Temple had the moral laws written over their hearts in spirit.
6. People are "bound" under the moral laws of Moses and going against the moral law is a "sin" punishable by the law makers of the country. Injustices were normally outcried by the Rabbis as John, the Baptist, outcried the illegal marriage of Herod with the wife of Philip; whilst in "spirit", the person has the "free will" e.g. the Parable of the prodigal son who left his Father(God), and going against the "Holy Spirit" is a blasphemy punishable, not by man, but by God e.g. the people who uttered blasphemy at the trial of Jesus were punished by God in which their Holiest of Holy Temple was destroyed and the blasphemers were expelled from their "Promised Land" till May, 1948 so that the Parable Matt.13.24-30 could be fulfilled. It is hoped that in 1995, Israel will face great Tribulations; this is the Will of God grasped through the apprehension of Gospel.
7. Elijah or John, the Baptist, who sat in his chair enforced the moral laws of Moses and gave his life in the course of his duty i.e. fighting the sinners. Thus, in Elijah, the priest keeps behind the "flock" and the "flock" has no option or "free will". Whilst in Jesus emphasis is not so much on "sin" as on "blasphemy". Thus, the woman who was caught red-handed in the act of adultery was just cautioned by Jesus and He rather asked the accusers in Moses to search their own "hearts" for "sins" before accusing the others emphasising that in God we treat others as we wished to be treated. In fact, we are all sinners whilst Jesus took the "sinful" human form in order to create for us the perfect "Footsteps" to Salvation. Thus, in Jesus the Apostles walk ahead of the flock and the people have the "free will" to go astray e.g. Judas Iscariot. God being Spirit, only the living persons in spirit, which are very few in number, can understand the Gospel. This fact is emphasised by Jesus when He told a living person, who wanted to go home to bury his dead father, that "Let the (spiritually)dead bury their dead" as at present the so-called Christians, Sikhs, etc. follow their clerics blindly and thus kill and bury their very own "Reasoning Power" capable of "intuition". Thus, in Jesus the Living shall never die(Resurrection of Jesus to prove it) and the dead shall never rise from their graves as propagated by the anti-christs, who even used to take bribes for a ticket to non-existent heaven after death! Remember that in Moses the priest was responsible for the sins of the people whilst in Jesus everyone of us has to give his own account to God and not the dog-collared blind clerics.
8. Priests establish the covenant of Adam, who was a mortal whilst the Royal Priests introduce the people to the covenant of grace of God, Who is eternal.
9. "Sons of Adam" are termed the "wheat plants" - Matt.13.24-30. We, who are born of the physical fathers, are just "sons of Man"; whilst Jesus being born of a Virgin was the second Adam, the anointed "Son of Man". As in Adam, the boys carry the "seed" and are the "heirs", so in God, the people of spirit, both male and female in flesh, being the "heirs of God" are the "sons of God". And Jesus being the anointed "Son of God" had the very Spirit of God right from His Virgin conception. Royal Priests of God are called the "Christs"; those with the "erring spirit of man" are called the "christs" and they are the younger Brethren of Jesus whilst those with the non-erring "Spirit of God" like the Apostles were are called the "Christs" and they are the Twin Brethren of Jesus, the anointed Christ. It is only for the people of flesh that Jesus is Lord and God incarnate and they call themselves "Christians".
10. In Elijah, the moral teachers - Matt.13.52 - are authoritarian and super-rulers i.e. they used to sit in the secular courts and had the power to over rule the judgement of the kings; whilst in Jesus the Apostles, with the exception of St.Peter, Who was given the Key to the kingdom of heaven, are humble super-servants; Jesus came to serve and not to be served. For being contented with our lot and being merciful, we are loving "Royal Kings" of God.
11. Secular kings are called "BAADSHAH" i.e. the head(SHAH) of an area(ABAADI) and they are generally materialistic as the Queen is in U.K.; whilst the Royal Kings are called "PAATSHAH" i.e. the Head who looks after the honour(PATT) of the people and They being "spiritualistic", Their Kingdom is within the hearts of people and It has no physical boundaries.
12. Secular kings put on an expensive and comfortable crown made up of the artificial and dead materials such as the precious metals and stones; whilst our Royal King Jesus had a much coveted un-comfortable and cheap Crown made up of the living Natural material from a thorny bush. None of the Apostles had a similar honour of a Royal Kingship as Jesus.
13. Moral teachers being the hereditary owners of a temple(Matt.13.52), the bishop of an autonomous Church of God would be a "man" in the name of John, the Baptist. He would teach the moral laws of Moses and keep the congregation morally sound especially on the principles of treating others as one wished to be treated. Thus, the corrupt government officials and businessmen will have no place in the Church of God. The bishop being one of the seven male deacons who were democratically elected by the male Church members, his praises lie with the men who elected and ordained him. Whilst the Royal Priests of God are Pre-ordained of God and they are the roving Preachers of Gospel. They expose the prevalent "blasphemies" in the Light of Gospel e.g. in the Light of "A Jew is one who is inwardly and not outwardly", it is a blasphemy to say that Jews, Sikhs, Hindus, Catholics, Protestants, etc. were killed and are being killed. Apostles being ordained of God, they are outspoken and seek the praises and Protection of God and not those of the people.
14. The bishops being the representatives of John, the Baptist make men the "sons of Man". The first ideal bishop St.Stephen was trying to make the Temple priests the sons of Abraham that they got mad at him and ordered their "saltless", the people without conscience, "sons of Satan", the fanatics, to stone him to death. John, the Baptist, called those Rabbis, Pharisees, Sadducees, etc., the "satanic fathers", a brood of vipers and refused to baptise them in the name of Adam. Further, the woman being a "daughter of Eve" and being not a "sinner" if she obeys her husband, need not be baptised in water. Whilst in Jesus, it is the heart that matters most and it needs the Baptism of Holy Spirit. Thus, the Apostles urged the clean-hearted people to seek the "Kingdom of God" in order to be the "heirs of God" and be "eternal" like their "Eternal Father". Thus, the Last Footstep in the Ministry of Jesus was the "Last Supper" in which the Loaf of Bread, the Body of Jesus, the congregation, was dispersed in order to preach the Gospel. Thus, the Last Supper is the Baptism of Jesus in Holy Spirit and it is most likely that Judas Iscariot was not allowed to take part in it.
15. Thus, the bishops can baptise men in water but they cannot administer the "Eucharist of Sacrifice"; whilst in Jesus, even women can become the Roving Preachers to spread Gospel and administer the "Eucharist" but the women cannot teach the moral laws of Moses.
16. Keys to the kingdom of heaven, which is for the comforts of "flesh" and is "seen" through the law and order, used to be with the Rabbi, who after becoming corrupt would neither themselves enter nor let anybody else enter; whilst Jesus introduced to us the much superior "Kingdom of God" for the "peace of our minds", which is established within our hearts and is "perceived" through the qualities of God such as "mercy" and service.
17. High priest in Moses used to give a sin-sacrifice of a lamb for his people once a year and some devoted priests used to give their very own sacrifice for the sins of their people; whilst Jesus, our Royal High Priest gave his own sacrifice once only for all the people of world. Such a sacrifice is expected of all the disciples of Jesus to win over the blasphemers. Also, remember that John, the Baptist gave his life fighting against the "sinners" whereas the martyrdom of Jesus rested upon the shoulders of "blasphemers" who were punished by God in 70 A.D.
18. Secular relations observe fleshly love called "eros" ; whilst the spiritual true love is called "Agape". Thus, the fleshly relations can wither away but not the spiritual Brethren.
19. Physically sick people thank the doctor for the cure; whilst the spiritually sick people not only hate the Doctor but even kill Him.
20. Rabbis fight against the "sins" whilst the Apostles expose "blasphemies".
Many more things could be written but they are best thrashed over in a heart-to-heart discussion.
