13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
‘Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’
14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled:
‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has grown callous;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts,
and turn, and I would heal them.’—Isaiah 6:10
And this was in fulfillment of Psalm 78:2.

9
And He told His disciples that a boat should stand ready for Him because of the crowd, so that they would not crowd Him;
10
for He had healed many, with the result that all those who had afflictions pressed around Him in order to touch Him.
11
Whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, they would fall down before Him and shout, “You are the Son of God!”
12
And He earnestly warned them not to tell who He was.

Yahweh and His Messiah—The Anointed One

Who is God? God is the creator of heaven and earth, and everything in it; this makes Him the most powerful being in existence. His existence is eternal by nature, He rules His creation with righteousness, and His Sovereignty is established from the beginning. Deuteronomy 10:14 Behold, to the LORD your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, and the earth and everything in it. Who is a Messiah? Why does the world need the Messiah? Yahweh has given free will to all beings in heaven and on earth. Evil came into existence when a heavenly being of his own free will rebelled against Him and became His adversary. The adversary, Satan, with his army of fallen angels is leading a rebellion against the LORD of Hosts under the false impression that he can overpower God and establish his dominion.  Evil existed even before the world was created.  Then why didn't God create the world after destroying Satan and his army of fallen angels? If Satan of hi...

Yahweh and the Man who wrestled with Jacob

Image
Who is God? God is the creator of heaven and earth, and everything in it; this makes Him the most powerful being in existence. His existence is eternal by nature, He rules His creation with Righteousness, and His Sovereignty is established from the beginning. Deuteronomy 10:14 Behold, to the LORD your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, and the earth and everything in it. The Hebrew word for God is Elohim; and in Scriptures, the Hebrew name of God who created the heavens and the earth is Yahweh. English Bibles make use of the word LORD—all capitalized, instead of Yahweh; and the Hebrew word for Lord, a title of reverence, is Adonai. What are the other titles of Yahweh in Scriptures? LORD God, Creator, Maker, God Almighty. God speaks to Moses and reveals His name—Yahweh God spoke to Moses out of a flame of fire from within a bush on the mountain of God in Horeb and revealed His name Yahweh. Exodus 3: 5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your ...

Predestination is an Illusion

Image
Yahweh foretold Rebekah what would happen to the two nations that would descend from Esau and Jacob—Gen. 25:23. Genesis 25 23 And the LORD said to her:  Two nations are in your womb; two people will come from you and be separated. One people will be stronger than the other,  and the older will serve the younger. This prophecy does not imply that Jacob was predestined to deceitfully take Esau's blessings from Isaac—when Rebekah asked him to do so. And Rebekah did not ask him to do so, so that she could bring the prophecy to fulfillment. Even before Isaac was born ,  Yahweh had foretold Abraham that his descendants (who would later turn out to be the Israelites—descendants of Jacob) will be enslaved in a land not their own for four hundred years—Gen. 15:13. And that they will return to the land that Yahweh swore on oath to Abraham in the fourth generation—Gen. 15:16 Read: Jacob. What's in a name? Yahweh's divine prowess to foretell despite human beings having free will s...

Jacob. What's in a name?

Rebekah, sister of Laban the Aramean, set out from Paddan Aram and went with her nurse, Deborah, to marry Isaac, son of Abraham. Genesis 24 59 So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way, along with her nurse and Abraham’s servant and his men. The LORD foretold Abraham that his descendants will be enslaved in a land for four hundred years even before Isaac was born. In the same way, the LORD foretold Rebekah what would happen to the two nations that would descend from the twin boys who will be born to her.  Genesis 25 23 And the LORD said to her:  Two nations are in your womb;  two people will come from you and be separated.  One people will be stronger than the other,  and the older will serve the younger. The names Abraham, Sarah and Isaac were given by the LORD Himself, but He did not tell Rebekah to name them Esau and Jacob. Rebekah had a nurse, Deborah who came from Paddan Aram; they named the twins Esau and Jacob because at ...

Prelude

Image
In layman's terms, the book of Genesis, Chapter 1, gives an account of how Yahweh created the universe. That might not be convincing enough for people who doubt. A great place to start would be reading the book of Daniel, Chapter 2. He was a prophet who interpreted the dream of the Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar, who forgot the dream he had. Daniel not only was able to describe the dream that the king forgot but also accurately interpreted the dream by prophesying the kingdoms that will come into power after Babylon until the kingdom of God is established on earth. There is historical evidence to prove the accuracy of his prophecies. There are prophecies yet to be fulfilled. Daniel accredited his wisdom, knowledge and understanding to Yahweh. Acknowledging the Creator can give an answer to questions: Why are we in this world?  What will happen in the future? The books in Scriptures were written by people chosen by God to reveal His Sovereignty and what He intends t...

Yahweh—The Eternal King of Righteousness

Psalms 93 1 The LORD reigns! He is robed in majesty; the LORD has clothed and armed Himself with strength. The world indeed is firmly established; it cannot be moved. 2 Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity. The LORD foretold Moses what the Israelites would do in the land that He promised to give  Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as an eternal possession. Deuteronomy 31 16 And the LORD said to Moses, “You will soon rest with your fathers, and these people will rise up and prostitute themselves with the foreign gods of the land they are entering. They will forsake Me and break the covenant I have made with them. 17 On that day My anger will burn against them, and I will abandon them and hide My face from them, so that they will be consumed, and many troubles and afflictions will befall them. On that day they will say, ‘Have not these disasters come upon us because our God is no longer with us?’ 18 And on that day I will surely hide My...
