		<description>With reference to &quot;Appalled&quot; of hometown USA.

Speaking as a Brit myself, I&#039;d say you were an knucking futter mate! And a dangerous one at that! Also, you&#039;re to dim to see the funny side! Get a grip on reality man! Spend some of your hard earned rRepublican cash and come visit us in Europe. We&#039;ll educate ya! Y&#039;all originate from fanatics who left these shores in England and embarked on a genocide of mammoth proportions against the indigenous peoples. Why is everyything &quot;Plain and Simple&quot; with you lot? Cos it ain&#039;t mate, unfortunately for your ilk.

May Hashem (THE NAME of the Most High GOD) who loves us all WITHOUT DISTINCTION, Who out of love created all of us, Jew or Gentile, Protestant or Catholic send the spirit of Gevurah and Chesed down upon you and draw the light and the truth out of it. Until then, I suggest you make atonement with your God. Examine your conscience carefully and remember - where there is hate there is Satan. Where there is love - there is GOD. Ubi Caritas et Amor - Deus Ibi Est! Look it up!

God bless! Amen!!!</description>

		<description>I am APPALLED that some of the content of these postings are not edited or completely deleted by the Host...Quay...oh yeah, I forgot, freedom of speech.....don&#039;t make me laugh.      Posts 11 and 12 are disgusting to say the least.  You seem to think Christianity is a big joke and we&#039;re all delusional.  Freedom of speech???....Let someone post something about the Quran or Allah and watch out.  If they don&#039;t kill you you&#039;ll have the Civil Liberties Union rising to protect you.  No one dare poke fun at Islam.  Christianity...Jesus Christ....you post your filth and make fun of it..One day, you will all be held accountable.  
Adonai is God.  NOT ALLAH
The Bible is TRUTH...not the Quran
Jesus Christ is God in the flesh.
Jesus sacrificed his life to bridge the gap between man and God.
Believe it and your Saved.
Believe it not and you&#039;ll go to Hell.
Jesus Will return.  He will rapture His children.
Very, Very soon.

The West needs to wake up and see just what religion is taking over...ISLAM.  Christians need to rise up and stand up for the TRUTH.  We should never allow the disrespect that permeates our country against christianity.  It&#039;s blashpemy. 

Reprobates who insult the Bible like Jonathan Brashier in post 11, and the filthy disgusting routine described by Brian Kent in post 12....I pity you and the evil spirit within you that makes you write such things.  You should be ashamed and if you were any kind of a man, apologize to those you so callously want to offend.
 
It doesn&#039;t matter if you believe in the Rapture or not.  You&#039;ll go if you&#039;re a saved christian, you&#039;ll be left behind if you are not.  Plain and simple.</description>

		<description>I knew Quay Fortuna was a pseudonym, but yesterday I realized what it means.

A quay is a dock (pronounced &quot;key&quot;), a place for ships to tie up to.  Fortuna is simply &quot;for tuna&quot;.  So Quay Fortuna is a dock where people can unload their smelly fish!

Regarding Dock&#039;s contention that the rapture of the church is something unheard of in the church until the mid 1800s here is a statement attributed to Ephraem of Syria by a person known as Pseudo-Ephraem sometime before the advent of Islam;

&quot;All the saints and elect of God are gathered together before the tribulation, which is to come, and are taken to the Lord, in order that they may not see at any time the confusion which overwhelms the world because of our sins.&quot;

-Pseudo-Ephraem (c. 374-627)

It really doesn&#039;t matter who it was who made the statement, the fact that it was made during the first 600 years of Christianity, and was translated into several different languages is significant!

So Quay or Dock or whatever your name is your research was a bit short sighted, merely repeating the party line, instead of doing some real research.

It is true that very few had heard of the pre-trib rapture viewpoint before the mid 1800s, but that is because pre-tribbers were a persecuted minority as they are today.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know J.B., I too have a ritual that involves the pulling of my penis.  I feel cleansed and renewed each time. No blood, as I believe that would clearly indicate the evidence of the work of Satan and I would have to submit to a burnt offering...or something that would feel that way.</description>

		<description>Greetings,

My name is Victor Michael Lashewitz and you can call me by my middle name Michael. I am a citizen of the United States of America the state of Ohio. I am a resident of a nursing home in Cincinnati, Ohio. How I arrived at these circumstances is not important or the direction and reason and focus of this letter and its subject matter.

I would ask that all would read this letter in full content and understand its explicit message and not disregard it as spam or its messenger as spam artist. Peace be with you and God bless your ministry. If you need help understanding this message and why it needs to be listened to and obeyed please feel free to e-mail me and ask as many questions as you feel is needed to understand the contents of this letter and its message that I give to others freely. My e-mail address is v.mikelash@yahoo.com. This letter will talk about a Jewish custom called Hatafat Dam Brit and why it is needed to be done on all males.. 

 

****

****

 

Subject - Jewish custom called Brit Milah - Hatafat Dam Brit. 

Hatafat Dam Brit: When a child is born as if circumcised, or has been circumcised before the eighth day in a hospital, a ritual called hatafat dam Brit is required. This symbolic circumcision involves drawing a drop of blood from the shaft of the penis. A dye is used on the needle when doing this procedure. The child is also named at this time. 

Extra information on the Jewish custom of circumcision. 

Conversion/Adoption: When both parents are Jewish, the child is Jewish. If only one parent is Jewish, the child&#039;s religion is determined by that of the birth mother. If the birth mother is not Jewish, the child must be converted. For a boy, the first step in this process is Brit Milah, followed by immersion in a mikveh (ritual bath), usually at the age of one year. If a male child born of a non-Jewish mother is adopted by Jewish parents, he also must undergo conversion. The process is as described above. The adoptive parents assume responsibility for circumcision and mikveh as well as for the many other educational obligations that lead to the child&#039;s understanding and acceptance of Torah and mitzvot. An older child or adult male who wishes to convert to Judaism also must undergo circumcision, or hatafat dam, and mikveh. 

Customs 

The three main participants, the father, mohel and sandak, wear talitot. 

On the first Friday night after a boy is born, it is customary to celebrate by gathering in the home of the newborn to welcome him This is known as Ben Zakhor (also Shalom Zakhor). G-d finished the creation of the world with the Sabbath and introduced peace and rest. Thus Shabbat surrounds the newborn with an aura of holiness and enhances his entry into the Covenant of Abraham, our father. 

The redemption of the first born son of a Jewish mother requires a pidyon haben. If the father or mother is a kohen or levi, the child is exempt. The ceremony takes place on the 31st day of the child&#039;s life. If this day falls on Shabbat or a Yom Tov, the ceremony is postponed until the first following weekday. A religiously observant kohen is needed. 


foot notes:

1. You do not need to be Jewish to do this custom. You can do hatafat dam brit on yourself at any age and in private if need be also. The spirit of truth will bless you if the male does this hatafat dam brit on himself. You do not need to circumcise yourself if you are not circumcised already and you do not need to circumcise yourself again once circumcised the first time. None of the Jewish rituals and customs need to be observed or obeyed to do this procedure hatafat dam brit on yourself.

****

2. Bible verses that justify this ritual.

Jeremiah 4:4, Genesis 3:15, and Daniel 9:11! Jermiah 4:4 –&quot;4: Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart, ye men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my fury come forth like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil (error) of your doings. &quot;Genesis 3:15 - &quot;15: And I will put enmity (Mastema) between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.&quot; Daniel 9:11 -&quot;11: Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses (brit Milah) the messenger of God, because we have sinned (insinuated) against him.&quot; 

If you do hatafat dam brit on yourself the spirit of enmity will depart from your presence mentioned in Genesis 3:15. 

How I found out about this custom ritual is because I use a catheter to urinate. Well a would be trainee urologist inserted the tube to far into me the wrong way one day when I had a doctor’s appointment to see the urologist in December 2000 and I was bleeding out of my penis afterwards slowly. I used iodine a dye instead of hydrogen-peroxide to clean the wound when I got home because the wound was still bleeding when I arrived home that day then the arch-angel Michael appeared to me and rebuked the spirit of enmity from my presence. This procedure hurts like the dickens for a moment anyway. Well I am paralyzed so I did not feel the pain. I am considered a incomplete quadriplegic because I broke my neck in a car wreck in August 12, 1996 around noon time. I have since healed of that wound the piercing of my penis but not my broken neck with help from the Holy Spirit and a female angel. How I found out about all this stuff that talks about what enmity is and brit milah and hatafat dam brit is because ministering angels guided me in what to study since December of 2000.

3. The shaft of the penis is the hole that urine come out of in males. When you prick the hole at the part where the hole meets the bladder this blood vessel leads directly to the heart and agrees with the verse in scripture Jeremiah 4:4, Daniel 9:11, and Genesis 3:15. Remember to use a dye on the needle or the procedure is a waste of time.

Excerpt from the gospel of Philip.

The Lord went into the dye works of Levi. He took seventy-two different colors and threw them into the vat. He took them out all white. And he said, &quot;Even so has the Son of Man come as a dyer.

I believe the vat mentioned in the text gospel of Philip listed above might be considered the shaft of the male penis.

4. This Jewish Document talks about this custom. This document is called the Damascus covenant and is found in ancient scrolls. This is an excerpt from that document,

19 Laws as to Oaths.

19 1 …(Shall not swe)ar either by Aleph Lamed or by Aleph Daleth, but by the oath (written) in the curses of the covenant. 2.But the Law of Moses he shall not mention, for…3 And if he swears and transgresses he profanes the Name. 4 And if by the curses of the covenant…the Judges. 5 And if he transgress he shall be held guilty but if he confess and make restitution he shall not bear (the penalty) of death. 6 And whosoever in all Israel shall enter into the covenant by a statute forever, together with their children who are (not of an age) to pass over into the number of those who are enrolled by the oath of the covenant, shall confirm it on their behalf. 7 And this is also the law throughout the entire period of the wickedness for every one who returns from his corrupt way. 8 On the day when he speaks with the Censor of the many they shall enrol him by the oath of the covenant that Moses established with Israel-10 the covenant to re(turn to the Law of M)oses…with all (his) heart…(and with all his) soul: as regards that which there is found to be done by them… 10 And no man shall make known to him the laws until he stand before the Censor (who) shall search out concerning him when he examines him. 11 And when he imposes it upon him to return to the Law of Moses with all his heart and all his soul …of him if… 12 And every thing that was revealed of the Law with regard to a suit… in him…the Censor him and shall command him…until…killed him…and the madman and all…(loss of five lines) 13 covenant with you and with the whole of Israel. 14 Therefore the man shall impose it upon himself to return to the Law of Moses; for in it everything is accurately treated.


20 1 Reference to the Book of Jubilees. 

20 1 And as for the exact statement of their periods to put Israel in remembrance in regard to all these, behold, it is treated accurately in the Book of the Divisions of the Seasons according to their Jubilees and their Weeks.

20 2-12. Laws as to Oaths and Vows.

2 And on the day on which the man imposes it upon himself to return to the law of Moses the angel of Mastema(ENMITY) will depart from him if he make good his word. 3 Therefore Abraham was circumcised on the day of his knowing it. 4 As to what he said, ‘That which is gone forth from thy lips thou shalt keep’ to make it good- 5 No binding oath, which a man imposes upon himself with a view to perform a commandment of the law, shall he cancel even at the risk of death. 6 Nothing which a man (imposes) upon himself with a view to (frustrate the la)w shall he make good even at the risk of death. 7 (As for) the oath of the woman, whose oath Mos(es sa)id should be disallowed, no man shall disa1low an oath which no man knew. 8 It is to be confirmed. And whether it be to disallow or to transgress the covenant, he shall disallow it and not confirm it. 9 And so is also the law for her father. As to the law of the of(fer)ings no man shall vow anything for the altar under compulsion. 10 Nor shall the (pr)iests take anything from the Israelites… 11 (Nor) shall a man dedicate the food…this is what he said, ‘They hunt every man his brother with a net.’ 12 Nor shall de(vote)…of all…his possession…holy…shall be punished he…who takes a vow… to the judge…

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings,</p>
<p>My name is Victor Michael Lashewitz and you can call me by my middle name Michael. I am a citizen of the United States of America the state of Ohio. I am a resident of a nursing home in Cincinnati, Ohio. How I arrived at these circumstances is not important or the direction and reason and focus of this letter and its subject matter.</p>
<p>I would ask that all would read this letter in full content and understand its explicit message and not disregard it as spam or its messenger as spam artist. Peace be with you and God bless your ministry. If you need help understanding this message and why it needs to be listened to and obeyed please feel free to e-mail me and ask as many questions as you feel is needed to understand the contents of this letter and its message that I give to others freely. My e-mail address is <a href="mailto:v.mikelash@yahoo.com">v.mikelash@yahoo.com</a>. This letter will talk about a Jewish custom called Hatafat Dam Brit and why it is needed to be done on all males.. </p>
<p>****</p>
<p>****</p>
<p>Subject &#8211; Jewish custom called Brit Milah &#8211; Hatafat Dam Brit. </p>
<p>Hatafat Dam Brit: When a child is born as if circumcised, or has been circumcised before the eighth day in a hospital, a ritual called hatafat dam Brit is required. This symbolic circumcision involves drawing a drop of blood from the shaft of the penis. A dye is used on the needle when doing this procedure. The child is also named at this time. </p>
<p>Extra information on the Jewish custom of circumcision. </p>
<p>Conversion/Adoption: When both parents are Jewish, the child is Jewish. If only one parent is Jewish, the child&#8217;s religion is determined by that of the birth mother. If the birth mother is not Jewish, the child must be converted. For a boy, the first step in this process is Brit Milah, followed by immersion in a mikveh (ritual bath), usually at the age of one year. If a male child born of a non-Jewish mother is adopted by Jewish parents, he also must undergo conversion. The process is as described above. The adoptive parents assume responsibility for circumcision and mikveh as well as for the many other educational obligations that lead to the child&#8217;s understanding and acceptance of Torah and mitzvot. An older child or adult male who wishes to convert to Judaism also must undergo circumcision, or hatafat dam, and mikveh. </p>
<p>Customs </p>
<p>The three main participants, the father, mohel and sandak, wear talitot. </p>
<p>On the first Friday night after a boy is born, it is customary to celebrate by gathering in the home of the newborn to welcome him This is known as Ben Zakhor (also Shalom Zakhor). G-d finished the creation of the world with the Sabbath and introduced peace and rest. Thus Shabbat surrounds the newborn with an aura of holiness and enhances his entry into the Covenant of Abraham, our father. </p>
<p>The redemption of the first born son of a Jewish mother requires a pidyon haben. If the father or mother is a kohen or levi, the child is exempt. The ceremony takes place on the 31st day of the child&#8217;s life. If this day falls on Shabbat or a Yom Tov, the ceremony is postponed until the first following weekday. A religiously observant kohen is needed. </p>
<p>foot notes:</p>
<p>1. You do not need to be Jewish to do this custom. You can do hatafat dam brit on yourself at any age and in private if need be also.

		<description>Questions: Why is I Thess. 4:17&#039;s &quot;rapture&quot; tied to I Thess. 5:3&#039;s (posttrib) &quot;sudden destruction&quot; of the wicked [note &quot;times and seasons] if the rapture is pretrib? If this destruction is before or during the trib, who would be left alive to serve the Antichrist? And I Cor. 15:52&#039;s &quot;rapture&quot; is tied to vs. 54 (a quote from Isa. 25:8 which all agree is Israel&#039;s posttrib resurrection). Two key passages and NO proof of pretrib in either one! Now you know why NO church (or Christian theology) before 1830 ever taught a pretrib coming!   Marge</description>

		<description>Dear Jonah,
      May I bring to your attention that the correct URL to my rapture article is http://www.rapturealert.com/doesbibleteachpretrib.html
      We are both in this, trying to reach more people with the true gospel message of the Lord.  Some people, maybe, will be interested first in the pretrib rapture doctrine.   Yours truly,  Edgar</description>
