No one knows precisely what the “one world religion” of the Global Governance group will eventually be named, but it will not bear the names Christianity, Judaism or Islam. Rather, it will be a “spirituality” cult open to all, and will have a god or gods who claim to give mystical light and spiritual well-being to all, without any accountability for sin or means of forgiveness and redemption.
It doesn’t take a Christian Bible student long to review Kabbalah and figure out that … oops … Kabbalah fits this description perfectly. It originated in Jewish mysticism that went beyond the Torah and the Tanakh, or the Christian books denominated the Old Testament. In Judaism, such books are divided into the Law (Torah), the Prophets and the Writings.
The problem with Kabbalah, the one that makes it so dangerous, is that it has a certain mystic appeal to those of all religious beliefs, including atheists (atheism is a religion, self is god). It is based of course on “secret” knowledge of the ages, too powerful for the uninitiated to handle, and thus the 4,000 year old wisdom and power of Kabbalah had to be kept a secret until approximately 2,000 years ago when it was committed to writing in the Zorah. Now if all these words sound Jewish to you, it’s because they are.
Judaism had sects much as Christianity today suffers from sects or cults. Mysticism anywhere should be a red alert warning to any true believer in Christ. For that matter, it should be a red flag warning to those of the Jewish faith who believe in Moses and the Law. Whether the Essenes, an ascetic group of Jews who isolated themselves in the desert around ancient Israel in the days of the Romans, perhaps before, certainly at the time of Christ, were Kabbalah practitioners or simply ascetics is not known. Whether Jesus of Nazareth ever met or taught any of these folk is unknown, but it most surely is not mentioned in Scripture.
As to Bible “codes” and numerology, that also is part of Kabbalah. If it’s mystic, secret, disclosed only to the initiated, then Kabbalah probably has borrowed some or it and originated some of it.
The idea is also loose in Christian sects who claim to have special faith to heal the sick, raise the dead, make one wealthy and wise, and part of an initiate group. Any time a professing “Christian” challenges another’s faith due to lack of financial prosperity, incurable disease, birth defects, or a hundred other ailments common to the human flesh, take warning. They’re about to sell you a bill of goods that is not in the Bible, they patched it together from the Bible. Kabbalah has done about the same.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
By this time, you are probably ready to leave off reading this article and start searching for “Kabbalah” on your favorite search engine. Do not do that yet, please, before you finish this. I know it is enticing to look into something that claims to be new, but please be assured that this religion, and that’s what it boils down to, is more than “infinite knowledge” or “pure spirit” or a dozen other secrets. It is poison! Why? Just because it appeals to everything we want to know, want to have and find missing in our lives. It avoids the reality of sin and the need for forgiveness through the shed blood of Jesus Christ and claims, rather, that Jesus studied this mystery “knowledge.” To the true Christian, Jesus Christ is deity, Son of God, Son of Man, God incarnate, and needs no instruction in that which originated in Eden! To the true Christian, Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lords, and Kaballah is anathema to Him. It stands unto itself as a substitute (read that “antichrist”) for what He paid for with His own blood, and repeats, in so many thousands of words, just what Satan told Adam: “ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.” By the time you learn from Satan what God alone can teach, you are on the wrong side of life and lunging headlong toward Hell. Oh, yes, the Zorah costs up to $415 but you can get a “condensed” version for ten bucks. That’s like trying to understand the need for Christ from John 3:16, “the gospel in a nutshell” to Christians but leaving the non-Christian wondering who’s this God and who is His Son?
While Christianity is monetarily free, even Bibles from some churches and Bible-distributing folks such as the Gideons, it does cost the surrender of one’s life to Christ as Lord and Master. In Kabbalah, you remain your own master, just one with incredible superpowers for life, love, happiness, knowledge, wisdom, and all the secrets of the universe that your mind can hold. That should be warning enough for anyone, Christian or not, Jewish or not, but obviously we all have that little flaw that makes us want to know just a little bit more. More than man can tell us, more than God has told us, so the Zorah is 23 volumes and the Bible is merely one.
God Almighty did not intend to chronicle all His wisdom and works in books. The Bible is essentially a book of redemption, showing how sin came into the world, what it did, how God provided before the foundation of the world for the salvation of His elect, the birth, life, death and resurrection of His Son, and the ultimate end of this world at Christ’s return. If you grasp that much, in depth, after years of study, you do well.
Once Kabbalah has its mysticism into your immortal spirit, it will be all hell to get away from here on earth and all Hell to pay afterwards. Getting “more” and rising “higher” will be the bait used by the New World Order to raise its elitist successors into the progression of their forebears, the little folks (useless feeders) won’t progress enough beyond that which will keep them enticed and ready to do obeisance to their benefactors and gurus.
Remember, the only “god” acknowledged by Kabbalah is unknowable, so you can have male, female (the pages I read about it said both masculine and feminine attributes are acknowledged) or neuter, one or some, but the emphasis is on YOU, not God. That is the dividing line between Christianity and actually, true Judaism of the days of the prophets, although worldliness got hold of the leaders and they killed most of the prophets just as the world order to come will kill most of God’s people, the remnant on earth.
Kabbalah claims to satisfy all we flawed humans want on earth through the path of knowledge. Good grief, men have been trying that route since they were shoved out of Eden. There is nothing new, just a rearrangement of the lie in Eden, “ye shall be as God …” and that is it — in 23 volumes. God Almighty has His secrets, we aren’t going to get into them in this life (Deut. 29:29), in the next life if we are His we won’t have any need to ask, and in the meantime, we have to enter into faith and obedience to Christ. (That “obedience” part upsets most folks, along with being labeled as sinners.)
It is my suggestion (which will largely go unheeded, I think) that people stay away from the lures of Kabbalah. I didn’t write this to entice you into a road to sin and denial of Christ. It is written as a warning. If you are mature and solid in the faith, a few sentences from the purposes and scope of Kabbalah will send you scurrying back to your Bible. If you aren’t solid in the faith … and you choose to look at this stuff … please remember that God has provided ALL that is necessary for you. Kabbalah’s claim to overcoming death is a damned and damnable lie just as are all such “mysteries” and I’d bet it costs quite a bit of money to grow into their mysteries enough to learn that one. From Christ, it is free to us, but cost Him death on the cross at Calvary:
John 11:25-26 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
Christians, beware. Christ IS Lord of Lord and King of Kings, He is returning, the Bible is the book that is the oldest revelation man has of God and His purposes and no, it isn’t an easy life on this sin-filled earth, never was and never will be. Anyone who tells you differently has some other God. And don’t blame this world’s evils on God, it is Satan who started it, Adam who bought it, please don’t make the same mistake by buying into false religions that promise heaven and beget Hell.
One of the singular emphases of Kabbalah is “light.” Where could they have gotten that idea?
1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
No Kabbalah, just plain, easy to understand Scripture from John the Beloved in the small book of 1st John.
God’s word is all we need, admitting it scourges our sinful pride.
