On Fire - Bilingual Essays (Paperback)

IN THE BEGINNING of the so-called Christian era, YEH-SHUA the Jew of Nazareth came to fire tirades of ferocious judgments upon Scribes and Pharisees who, he said, were sitting in Moses' throne, binding heavy burdens on men's shoulders ... traveling land and sea to win proselytes ... making them twice as much sons of hell ... -until he himself was put on a fire of the death on cross, so much tragic that Luke related he had come to send FIRE on earth -wishing it WERE already kindled Yeh-Shua is the Hebraic English for the scriptural Hebrew Yod-Hay-Vav-Shin-Ayin naming both Joshua of the so-called Old Testament and Jesus of the New Testament-as well as the Another Testament of the Latter-Day Saints -and Isa of the Qur'an as well. Joshua was said to have walked after (on the Way of) the Creator namely Yod-Hay-Vav-Hay, Jesus has still been believed to have said "I am the Way," that is the difference; but this is the same meaning of both English names: Yod-Hay-Vav-Shin-Ayin means YHVH Saves or YHVH Will Save. Jesus 'the Way, the Truth, and the Life' is 'God the Son' and 'our LORD and SAVIOUR'; but Yeh-Shua the Jew of Nazareth is a human whom YHVH had saved by pouring upon with unlimited Spirit and whose spirit YHVH would have saved as soon as Jesus said, "Father, into your hand I commend my spirit," then breathed his last breath -for dust taken out of the ground is to return to whereof it was and spirit to YHVH who gave it out. A couple of decades after Yeh-Shua was crucified, Saul of Tarsus the Roman-born and already Hellenised Jew of his next generation began Hellenising him into Iesous and anointed him Christos for the making of Christianity-Christian-ism on grounds of etymology, the Religion set up by that first Christian upon his Christians. Saul never knew Yeh-Shua, he was consenting to the stoning of Stephen a follower of Yeh-Shua's disciples when a youth and making havoc of them when at service to the high priest -entering every house and dragging off men and women... to prison ... -from Jerusalem to Damascus ... on the way thereto Saul suddenly saw Christ the Lord.
