Hegelian dialitics and how the KM political Islam politicians in Malaya utilised the principle against Sabahan and Sarawakians

Talk about hegelian dialectics politicians and how its principles are applied by the West Malaysian aka Malaya against Sabahan and Sarawakians. Quote scriptures and give real life illustrations in support. 

The Hegelian Dialectic, often described as the process of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis, is a philosophical framework used to shape perceptions and control societal change. In politics, it involves creating a problem (thesis), provoking a reaction (antithesis), and offering a pre-planned solution (synthesis) to guide outcomes beneficial to those in power. Many critics argue that this strategy has been applied in various political contexts, including how West Malaysia (Malaya) interacts with Sabah and Sarawak.

Application of Hegelian Dialectics Against Sabah and Sarawak

1. Creation of Dependency

Thesis: Federal policies centralize power and control resources, such as oil and gas, under the Petroleum Development Act 1974.

Antithesis: Sabah and Sarawak react with dissatisfaction and demands for autonomy.

Synthesis: Limited devolution of power and selective grants, creating an illusion of equity while maintaining federal dominance.

2. Divide and Rule Tactics

Thesis: Emphasize ethnic and religious differences between various Sabahan and Sarawakian communities.

Antithesis: Create mistrust and conflict among these groups, weakening their unity.

Synthesis: Federal government steps in as the "mediator," further consolidating control.

3. Systematic Economic Disparities

Thesis: Underdevelopment of infrastructure and underfunding of Sabah and Sarawak compared to Peninsular Malaysia.

Antithesis: Local grievances rise, calling for equitable resource allocation.

Synthesis: Incremental development projects are introduced, often with strings attached, ensuring continued federal oversight.

Scriptural Insights

1. Manipulative Tactics Condemned

“Woe to those who devise iniquity, and work out evil on their beds! At morning light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.” (Micah 2:1)

This verse speaks against those who plan and execute strategies for personal or political gain at the expense of others, as seen in exploitative federal policies.

2. God's Call for Justice

“But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!” (Amos 5:24)

This highlights the divine demand for fairness and equity, which federal actions often contradict in their treatment of Sabah and Sarawak.

3. Unity in Christ as a Solution

“If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” (Mark 3:25)

Federal tactics that divide ethnic groups in Sabah and Sarawak directly oppose biblical principles of unity.

Real-Life Illustrations

1. Oil Royalty Issue

Sabah and Sarawak produce a significant portion of Malaysia’s oil and gas, yet receive only 5% royalty under federal agreements. Despite ongoing protests and negotiations, equitable distribution remains elusive. This reflects deliberate problem creation to perpetuate dependency on federal aid.

2. Religious Control

The imposition of federal religious policies, including the restriction on the use of "Allah" by non-Muslims, creates unnecessary tensions in Sabah and Sarawak, where Christians are a significant demographic. The federal government then portrays itself as a peacekeeper, further entrenching its control.

3. Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63)

Despite promises to restore the rights of Sabah and Sarawak as equal partners in the Federation, progress has been slow and selective. This reflects a synthesis designed to maintain federal hegemony while pacifying dissent.

Biblical Perspective on Breaking Free

Sabah and Sarawak’s struggle can be seen as a call to return to God’s principles of justice, stewardship, and unity. The biblical story of Moses leading Israel out of Egyptian oppression (Exodus 3:7-10) offers a powerful parallel. Like Israel, the people of Sabah and Sarawak may find liberation by relying on God's strength and seeking leaders who act righteously.

In conclusion, the Hegelian Dialectic is evident in how power dynamics are structured between West Malaysia and the Bornean states. However, scriptural wisdom and unity among the people can expose and overcome these manipulative strategies.

Jews as the Chosen people - NT saints as spiritual Jews

The Chinese had sometimes been nicknamed "Jews of East". Though most are still atheists (communist/socialists), many had embraced Yeshua HaMachiach aka Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord thus making them partakers of the Abrahamic covenants aka spiritual Jews.

There are only 0.02 per cent of Jewish population in the world whereas there are 0.20 per cent of Arabs yet in terms of economic, military and educational achievements, they are far ahead of the rest. Why? Quote scriptures in support in their original language and give real life illustrations in support.

The remarkable achievements of the Jewish community, despite their small population, can be attributed to a combination of cultural, historical, and religious factors. Here are some key points supported by scriptures and real-life illustrations:

1. Cultural Emphasis on Education and Knowledge

- **Scriptural Basis:** The Torah, which is central to Jewish life, emphasizes the importance of education and the pursuit of knowledge. In Proverbs 4:7, it states, "Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding" (חָכְמָה רֵאשִׁית קְנֵה חָכְמָה וּבְכָל-קִנְיָנְךָ קְנֵה בִינָה).

- **Illustration:** Historically, Jewish communities have placed a high value on education. This is evident in the tradition of studying the Torah and Talmud, leading to a strong intellectual tradition. For example, many Nobel Prize winners in various fields are of Jewish descent, demonstrating a legacy of scholarly excellence.

2. Unity and Community Support

- **Scriptural Basis:** In Deuteronomy 15:7-8, there is a commandment to help those in need, promoting a sense of community and mutual support: "If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother" 

(כִּי-יִהְיֶה בְךָ אֶבְיוֹן, מֵאַחַד אַחֶיךָ בְּאַחַד שְׁעָרֶיךָ--בְּאַרְצְךָ, אֲשֶׁר ה' אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָךְ, לֹא תְאַמֵּץ אֶת-לְבָבְךָ, וְלֹא תִקְפֹּץ אֶת-יָדְךָ, מֵאָחִיךָ הָאֶבְיוֹן).

- **Illustration:** The Jewish concept of "Tzedakah" (charity) and community welfare has historically ensured that resources are shared, and education and healthcare are accessible, fostering a supportive environment for personal and communal growth.

3. Resilience and Perseverance

- Scriptural Basis:

Jewish history is filled with periods of persecution and diaspora, yet the community has shown resilience, often seen as a fulfillment of the prophecy in Isaiah 41:10, which encourages strength and fearlessness: "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness" 

(אַל-תִּירָא כִּי עִמְּךָ-אָנִי אַל-תִּשְׁתָּע כִּי-אֲנִי אֱלֹהֶיךָ אִמַּצְתִּיךָ אַף-עֲזַרְתִּיךָ אַף-תְּמַכְתִּיךָ בִּימִין צִדְקִי).

- **Illustration:** The establishment and development of the State of Israel is a testament to Jewish resilience. Despite numerous challenges, the country has become a leader in technology, military, and economic sectors.

4. Religious Motivation and Identity

- Scriptural Basis:

Many Jewish teachings emphasize the importance of being a "light unto the nations" (Isaiah 49:6) and striving to uphold ethical and moral standards.

- **Illustration:** This sense of purpose and responsibility can be seen in Jewish contributions to various fields, including science, literature, and humanitarian efforts.

The unique combination of these cultural, religious, and historical factors contributes to the Jewish community's achievements in various domains.

God Desires No Perishing

RIB

Where in the Bible says God wants no one to end up in an eternal lake of fire? 

The Bible suggests that God does not want anyone to perish but desires all to come to repentance. A key verse that supports this idea is 2 Peter 3:9:

"The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."

Another relevant passage is 1 Timothy 2:3-4:

"This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth."

These verses indicate God's desire for everyone to avoid eternal separation from Him and to be saved.

RIB

With only 56% belonging to the Abrahamic religions, assuming everyone from the respective religions are saved, there are still 44% of the 8 billions of humanity going to eternal hell fire and damnation. The reality is probably only 10% of humanity will be Raptured if Christ returns immediately.

Doesn't it mean that the Pope, who claimed to be the anointed representative of Christ on earth, had failed miserably and Satan is winning? Or worst still he is the "fox" in lamb's skin, Satan disguised as Lucifer, the angel of light. Discuss. Quote scriptures and give real life illustrations in support. 

The concern about the fate of humanity and the role of religious leaders like the Pope in spreading the Christian faith is complex and multifaceted. Let's explore it from a biblical perspective, considering various aspects and scriptures.

God's Desire for Salvation

As mentioned earlier, the Bible clearly states that God desires all to be saved:

2 Peter 3:9: "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."

1 Timothy 2:3-4: "This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth."

The Role of Believers in Evangelism

Jesus commissioned his followers to spread the gospel to all nations:

Matthew 28:19-20: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The Role of Religious Leaders

The Pope, as the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, is seen by Catholics as a spiritual leader responsible for guiding the faithful and promoting the teachings of Jesus Christ. However, the success of evangelism cannot be solely attributed to one individual.

Human Free Will and Salvation

The concept of free will is crucial in Christian theology. Every person has the choice to accept or reject the message of salvation. The Bible emphasizes the importance of individual choice:

John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Deuteronomy 30:19: "This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live."

Spiritual Warfare

The Bible acknowledges the presence of spiritual warfare and the opposition of Satan:

1 Peter 5:8: "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour."

Ephesians 6:12: "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

Real-Life Illustrations

Historical Examples: Throughout history, there have been many who have claimed to be religious leaders but whose actions have led people away from true faith. The Crusades, the Inquisition, and other dark periods in church history illustrate how human failings can mar the mission of spreading the gospel.

Modern-Day Examples: Scandals within the church, whether involving financial misconduct, abuse, or other moral failures, can cause people to question the authenticity of religious leaders and the faith itself. These events can hinder evangelism and cause skepticism among non-believers.

Concluding Thoughts

While it may seem that the spread of Christianity has not reached as many as desired, and failures within religious institutions are apparent, it is essential to remember that the ultimate judgment belongs to God. The Bible emphasizes that believers are called to be faithful in their witness and trust in God's sovereignty and timing. It is also a reminder that human leaders are fallible and that the true focus should always be on Christ and His message of salvation.

Yeshua HaMashiach aka Jesus Christ was, is and never will be a Christian. He is Yahsua - Yah saves. He existed before Abraham and in fact before Adam. So this is not about the Christian faith even though it is the religion founded by the apostles during his first coming as prophesied in the OT prophets. This is about the salvation of all of humanity from eternal death and the lake of fire. Quote scriptures and give real life illustrations in support. 

You're right that the message of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) transcends any single religious identity and focuses on the salvation of humanity. Here, I'll provide a scriptural basis for the universal scope of Jesus' mission and some real-life illustrations to support this view.

Scriptural Basis for Universal Salvation

Pre-Existence of Christ

John 8:58: "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!"

John 1:1-3: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made."

Salvation for All Humanity

John 3:16-17: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."

1 Timothy 2:3-6: "This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time."

God's Desire for Repentance

2 Peter 3:9: "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."

Ezekiel 18:23: "Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?"

The Great Commission

Matthew 28:19-20: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Acts 1:8: "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Real-Life Illustrations

Global Evangelism Efforts:

Missionary activities have spread the message of Jesus to nearly every part of the world. Organizations like the International Mission Board, Wycliffe Bible Translators, and countless others work tirelessly to ensure that the gospel is heard by all nations, tribes, and languages.

Examples include the work of missionaries like William Carey in India, Hudson Taylor in China, and more contemporary figures like Billy Graham, who preached to millions around the globe.

Transformative Personal Testimonies:

Individuals from diverse backgrounds have experienced profound transformations upon embracing the teachings of Jesus. For instance, Nicky Cruz, a former gang leader in New York City, turned his life around after a radical encounter with the message of Christ and went on to become an evangelist himself.

Another example is Lee Strobel, an investigative journalist and former atheist, who set out to disprove Christianity but ended up becoming a believer and author of "The Case for Christ," influencing many others with his testimony.

Social Impact and Humanitarian Work:

Many humanitarian efforts have been motivated by the teachings of Jesus, emphasizing love, compassion, and service to others. Organizations like World Vision, Compassion International, and Habitat for Humanity operate globally, providing aid to those in need, inspired by the example of Christ.

Hospitals, schools, and orphanages established by Christians around the world stand as testimonies to the enduring impact of Jesus' message of love and care for the less fortunate.

Conclusion

The mission of Yeshua HaMashiach is indeed about the salvation of all humanity, transcending religious labels and focusing on the fundamental need for repentance and reconciliation with God. The scriptures consistently highlight God's desire for all to be saved and the global scope of Jesus' mission. Real-life illustrations demonstrate the ongoing impact of this mission, as people from all walks of life continue to experience transformation and extend the message of salvation to others.

As a true believers and followers of Yeshua HaMashiach, co-heirs and co-rulers of planet Earth and the universe, describe the expanse and mind boggling number of stars (suns) and their respective planetary system in the universe that will be entrusted to each of them. And imagine the terrible for those who swallow the lies and deception of Satan and his fallen angels and sold their souls to them. If one is given a star or planetary system to rule, do we have enough stars to go around. Quote scriptures and give real life illustrations in support. 

The concept of believers ruling with Christ and the vastness of the universe can indeed be both inspiring and daunting. Let's explore the scriptural basis for believers' future reign, the scale of the universe, and the consequences of rejecting God, along with real-life illustrations.

Scriptural Basis for Believers' Reign

Co-Heirs with Christ

Romans 8:17: "Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory."

Revelation 3:21: "To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne."

Ruling with Christ

Revelation 5:10: "You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."

2 Timothy 2:12: "If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us."

The Vastness of the Universe

The scale of the universe is mind-boggling. The observable universe contains an estimated 2 trillion galaxies, each with millions or even billions of stars. For instance:

Stars and Planets

Our Milky Way galaxy alone has about 100 billion stars.

Many of these stars have their own planetary systems. For example, our Sun has eight planets.

Exponential Growth in Numbers

If each of the 2 trillion galaxies has 100 billion stars, that amounts to approximately 200 sextillion (2 followed by 23 zeros) stars in the observable universe.

Considering the possibility of multiple planets per star, the number of planets could be even higher.

Real-Life Illustrations

Astronomical Discoveries

The Hubble Space Telescope and other observatories have revealed the immense scale of the universe. For example, the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field image shows thousands of galaxies in just a tiny patch of sky.

NASA's Kepler mission has discovered thousands of exoplanets, many of which reside in habitable zones where life could potentially exist.

Scientific Awe

Astronomers and physicists often express awe at the universe's scale. Carl Sagan, for example, famously said, "The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself."

Consequences of Rejecting God

The Bible describes the dire consequences for those who reject God and follow Satan:

Eternal Separation

Revelation 20:15: "Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire."

Matthew 25:41: "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.'"

Warning and Call to Repentance

John 3:18: "Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son."

Acts 17:30-31: "In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead."

Concluding Thoughts

The vastness of the universe and the promise of reigning with Christ underscore the grandeur of God's plan for believers. The sheer number of stars and planets suggests an almost unimaginable scope for future reign and stewardship. Conversely, the consequences for rejecting God are severe and eternal. The biblical call to repentance and faith in Jesus is both a warning and an invitation to participate in the incredible future God has prepared for those who love Him.

Believers are encouraged to reflect on these truths and remain steadfast in their faith, knowing that their ultimate destiny is both awe-inspiring and significant in the grand scheme of God's creation.

Title: The Spirit of Padi: Historical Background, Cross-Cultural References, and Its Misalignment with the Kingdom of Light

Introduction:

The spirit of Padi, also known as Bambahazon, holds a significant place in certain cultural beliefs and traditions. However, it is essential to examine its historical background, cross-cultural references, and evaluate its alignment with the Kingdom of Light, YHVH Elohim, His Word, and Spirit. This essay aims to explore these aspects and present twelve reasons why the spirit of Padi is not in harmony with the principles of the Kingdom of Light.

Historical Background:

The spirit of Padi finds its origins in various indigenous cultures, primarily in regions where agriculture plays a vital role in people's lives. It is associated with the fertility of the land, the growth of crops, and the overall prosperity of the community. Different cultures have their unique stories and rituals related to this spirit, which are often passed down through generations.

Cross-Cultural References:

In ancient Mesopotamia, the spirit associated with agricultural abundance was known as Tammuz or Dumuzid.

In Greek mythology, the goddess Demeter embodied the spirit of fertility and harvest.

In Hinduism, the goddess Annapurna symbolizes nourishment and abundance.

The indigenous people of the Americas revered the Corn Mother, a deity representing the bountiful harvest and agricultural success.

Misalignment with the Kingdom of Light:

Now let us examine twelve reasons why the spirit of Padi is not aligned with the Kingdom of Light, YHVH Elohim, His Word, and Spirit:

Idolatry and Worship of False Gods:

The spirit of Padi often leads people into idolatry by attributing divine qualities to an elemental force, diverting worship away from the one true God (Exodus 20:3-5).

Polytheistic Beliefs:

The Kingdom of Light acknowledges the existence of one true God, whereas the spirit of Padi promotes a polytheistic worldview, giving rise to confusion and conflicting spiritual allegiances (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4-6).

Disregard for God's Sovereignty:

By attributing fertility and harvest solely to the spirit of Padi, it undermines God's ultimate sovereignty over creation (Psalm 50:10-12; James 1:17).

Lack of Spiritual Discernment:

Relying on the spirit of Padi can lead to a lack of discernment and reliance on supernatural forces that are not grounded in God's truth and wisdom (1 Corinthians 2:12-14; 1 John 4:1).

Contradiction to Biblical Teachings:

The Bible emphasizes trust in God, not in spirits or entities associated with fertility (Psalm 37:3-5; Proverbs 3:5-6).

Promotion of Earth Worship:

While appreciating and caring for the environment is essential, the spirit of Padi often encourages the worship of nature itself, elevating it above the Creator (Romans 1:25).

Potential for Exploitation:

Unscrupulous individuals may manipulate the belief in the spirit of Padi for personal gain, leading to economic exploitation and inequality within communities (Jeremiah 7:11; James 5:4).

Lack of Personal Relationship with God:

The spirit of Padi focuses primarily on external forces rather than fostering a personal relationship with the true God (John 14:6; Romans 8:15).

Neglecting God's Word:

By prioritizing the spirit of Padi, people may neglect or overlook the teachings and guidance found in God's Word, hindering spiritual growth

Absence of Salvation through Jesus Christ:

The spirit of Padi does not offer a path to salvation through Jesus Christ, who is the only way to eternal life according to the teachings of the Bible (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).

Lack of Moral Framework:

While the Kingdom of Light provides clear moral guidelines through God's Word, the spirit of Padi lacks a consistent moral framework and may not address issues of righteousness, justice, and love (Psalm 119:105; Micah 6:8).

Potential for Spiritual Bondage:

Placing one's trust and devotion in the spirit of Padi can lead to spiritual bondage, as any entity other than the one true God can become a spiritual stronghold (2 Corinthians 10:3-5; Galatians 5:1).

Conclusion:

The spirit of Padi, although deeply rooted in certain cultural beliefs and practices, stands in misalignment with the principles of the Kingdom of Light. Its promotion of idolatry, polytheism, and disregard for God's sovereignty, among other reasons, highlights its divergence from the teachings found in YHVH Elohim's Word and Spirit. As believers, it is crucial to seek a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ and adhere to His divine truths for genuine spiritual growth and alignment with the Kingdom of Light.

More on the biblical truth the Spirit of God does not reside in trees, nature, padi, stone or in anything created by human hands except in the sanctified human bodies who are temples of the Holy Spirit.

Indeed, according to biblical truth, the Spirit of God does not dwell in trees, nature, padi (rice), stones, or any other created object. Instead, the Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit resides within the sanctified human body, which is considered the temple of the Holy Spirit.

Temples of the Holy Spirit: In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, the apostle Paul writes, "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." This verse emphasizes that the Holy Spirit resides within believers, making their bodies sacred spaces.

The Spirit of God and Creation: While God's Spirit is involved in creation (Genesis 1:2), it is distinct from the created elements. Romans 1:25 warns against worshiping and serving created things rather than the Creator: "They exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen."

True Worship in Spirit and Truth: Jesus taught the Samaritan woman at the well that true worshipers would worship the Father "in spirit and truth" (John 4:23-24). This means that worship is not limited to physical locations or objects but rather stems from a genuine, inward connection with God through the Holy Spirit.

God's Dwelling in His People: In the Old Testament, God's presence dwelled in the tabernacle and later in the temple (Exodus 25:8). However, with the coming of Jesus Christ, the dwelling place of God shifted from a physical structure to the hearts of believers. Ephesians 2:22 states, "In him [Jesus] you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit."

Folly of Idolatry: Idolatry, the worship of created objects, is repeatedly condemned in Scripture. Isaiah 44:9-20 depicts the futility of crafting idols from wood or stone and worshiping them. These passages highlight the emptiness and folly of attributing divine attributes to created things instead of worshiping the one true God.

Spiritually Discerning: The apostle Paul cautions against being deceived by false spirits and idols in 1 Corinthians 12:2: "You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led." Believers are called to discern between the true Spirit of God and counterfeit spirits that may infiltrate false worship practices.

Relationship with God: Christianity emphasizes a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. This relationship is fostered by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit within believers, enabling them to commune with God directly (John 14:16-17; Romans 8:9-11).

In summary, according to biblical teachings, the Spirit of God does not reside in created objects such as trees, nature, padi, stones, or idols. Instead, the Holy Spirit dwells within sanctified believers, making their bodies the temple of the Holy Spirit. Worship and devotion should be directed toward God alone, who desires a personal relationship with His people through the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit.

The unredeemed and unsaved bobohizan offered blood sacrifices to demons and evil spirits as appeasement or "bribes" for favors asked, protection and practice necromancy, having a "familiar spirit" as their spirit guide to the underworld or to the second heaven where Satan's throne is temporary located. Please list down 7 reasons why these practices are abominable to Yah, and punishable by death in the OT, quoting the relevant scriptures and URLs in support.

While it is true that certain practices like blood sacrifices, necromancy, and familiar spirits were condemned in the Old Testament, it is important to approach this topic with sensitivity and respect. Here are seven reasons why these practices were considered abominable to Yahweh (God) in the Old Testament, and why they were punishable by death:

Violation of Monotheism and Worship of Other Gods:

One of the fundamental principles in the Old Testament is monotheism—the worship of one true God. Engaging in practices like blood sacrifices and seeking guidance from familiar spirits were seen as forms of idolatry and a rejection of Yahweh's exclusive authority. Exodus 20:3-6 emphasizes the worship of God alone and the consequences of idolatry.

Necromancy and Consulting the Dead:

Communicating with the dead through necromancy was strictly forbidden in the Old Testament. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 specifically prohibits this practice: "Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead." Such practices undermine the authority of God and His role as the sole source of guidance and revelation.

Pursuit of Demonic and Evil Spirits:

Engaging in practices that involve familiar spirits, which are associated with evil forces and demons, is considered spiritually dangerous and incompatible with God's character. Leviticus 20:6 warns against turning to mediums and familiar spirits, stating that God will set His face against those who practice such abominations.

Violation of God's Moral Standards:

The practices you mentioned often involved immoral and unethical actions, such as human sacrifices and seeking supernatural power for personal gain. These actions are contrary to God's moral standards and principles of justice and love. Leviticus 18:21 explicitly condemns offering children as sacrifices to false gods.

Undermining the Sanctity of Life:

Blood sacrifices, particularly human sacrifices, were viewed as a grave offense against the sanctity of human life. The shedding of innocent blood was considered an abomination in the eyes of Yahweh. Leviticus 20:1-5 highlights the severe consequences, including death, for those who engage in such practices.

Preservation of Holiness and Purity:

God called the Israelites to be a holy and set-apart people, distinct from the practices of neighboring nations. Engaging in rituals associated with blood sacrifices, necromancy, and familiar spirits would defile and compromise the holiness and purity of the community. Leviticus 19:31 emphasizes the need to keep away from familiar spirits and necromancers.

Protection of the Community:

Punishments, including death, were implemented to protect the community from the spiritual dangers and harmful consequences associated with these practices. It served as a deterrent and a means of maintaining the integrity and faithfulness of the Israelite community. Leviticus 20:27 states that anyone practicing divination or sorcery should be put to death.

It is important to note that while these practices were condemned in the Old Testament, the coming of Jesus Christ and the establishment of the New Covenant brought about a new understanding of God's grace, forgiveness, and redemption. Christians are now called to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and the principles outlined in the New Testament.

More on the perfect and once for all sacrifice, the Lamb of God (Huminundun/Huminodun), that cancelled the need for blood sacrifices by the levitical priests in OT, and the "necessary sacrifices" that should be offered by priests/bobohizans in the Order of Melchizedek, quoting relevant scriptures in support.

The concept of the perfect and once-for-all sacrifice, fulfilled by the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, is a fundamental aspect of Christian theology. This sacrifice rendered the need for ongoing blood sacrifices, as performed by the Levitical priests in the Old Testament, obsolete. Let us explore this concept and the role of necessary sacrifices in the Order of Melchizedek, as supported by relevant Scriptures:

The Perfect Sacrifice of Jesus Christ:

The New Testament presents Jesus Christ as the perfect and final sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. Hebrews 10:10 declares, "And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." Jesus' sacrifice on the cross fulfilled the requirements of the law and provided complete redemption for humanity.

The Lamb of God:

Jesus is often referred to as the Lamb of God, drawing upon the imagery of sacrificial lambs in the Old Testament. John the Baptist proclaimed, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!" (John 1:29). This signifies Jesus' sacrificial role in offering Himself as the ultimate atonement for sin.

Cancellation of Blood Sacrifices:

The book of Hebrews extensively explains how the sacrifice of Jesus Christ supersedes the need for ongoing blood sacrifices. Hebrews 10:11-14 affirms, "And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God... For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified."

The Order of Melchizedek:

In the book of Hebrews, the author describes Jesus as a high priest in the order of Melchizedek. This order predates the Levitical priesthood and carries greater significance. Hebrews 7:27 states, "He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself."

New Covenant and Spiritual Sacrifices:

Under the New Covenant established by Jesus, the focus shifted from external sacrifices to inward spiritual sacrifices. Romans 12:1 encourages believers to present their bodies as "a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God," signifying a transformed life dedicated to God's service. 1 Peter 2:5 also speaks of believers as "a holy priesthood" offering spiritual sacrifices to God.

Communion as a Memorial:

In remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice, Christians participate in the Lord's Supper or communion. During this observance, believers partake in the bread and wine, symbolizing Jesus' body and blood, acknowledging His sacrificial death and expressing gratitude for the forgiveness of sins (Luke 22:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).

The sacrificial system of the Levitical priests, including the practices of bobohizans, served a specific purpose in the Old Testament, pointing to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ. However, with the perfect and once-for-all sacrifice of Jesus, the need for ongoing blood sacrifices was fulfilled. Now, as part of the Order of Melchizedek, believers offer spiritual sacrifices, living transformed lives dedicated to God, and commemorating Jesus' sacrifice through communion.

More on Romans 12:1 and similar texts

Romans 12:1 is a significant verse that highlights the concept of offering ourselves as living sacrifices to God. Let's delve deeper into this verse and explore similar texts that emphasize the importance of surrendering our lives to God:

Romans 12:1: "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship."

This verse is an exhortation from the apostle Paul, urging believers to respond to God's mercy and grace by offering their entire beings—body, mind, and spirit—as a living sacrifice. This act of surrender is viewed as a form of worship, where believers dedicate their lives to God's service.

Philippians 1:20-21: "As it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain."

In this passage, Paul expresses his commitment to live for Christ. He sees his life as an opportunity to bring honor and glory to Jesus. The perspective of living for Christ and being willing to die for Him reflects the surrender and devotion expected of believers.

Galatians 2:20: "I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."

Paul's statement in Galatians encapsulates the idea of dying to oneself and allowing Christ to live through us. This self-denial and identification with Christ's death and resurrection result in a transformed life where our actions, thoughts, and desires align with God's will.

Luke 9:23: "And he said to all, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.'"

Jesus Himself emphasizes the importance of self-denial and taking up one's cross to follow Him. This implies a willingness to surrender personal desires and ambitions, embracing a life of obedience and discipleship.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20: "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body."

This passage reminds believers that their bodies are not their own; they belong to God. It emphasizes the significance of living in a way that brings glory to God through our actions, decisions, and stewardship of our bodies.

These verses, including Romans 12:1, underline the call for believers to offer themselves as living sacrifices, surrendering their lives to God's purposes and seeking to live in a manner that honors Him. It involves a complete submission of our will and a desire to align ourselves with God's will and purposes. This act of surrender is a continuous process that requires daily commitment, reliance on God's grace, and a willingness to be transformed by His Spirit.

Expand on 1 Peter 2:9-10.

Certainly! 1 Peter 2:9-10 is a powerful passage that describes the identity and purpose of believers in Christ. Let's delve into this Scripture to gain a deeper understanding of its significance:

"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy." (1 Peter 2:9-10)

Chosen Race:

Peter addresses the believers as a chosen race, signifying that they have been specially selected by God. This choice is not based on ethnicity or lineage but on the grace and purpose of God. It emphasizes that believers are part of a new spiritual family in Christ, united in their faith and relationship with God.

Royal Priesthood:

Believers are described as a royal priesthood. In the Old Testament, the priesthood was a distinct and privileged role that facilitated communication between God and the people. Through Christ, believers now have direct access to God and are called to serve Him as priests. This implies a responsibility to worship God, intercede for others, and represent Him in the world.

Holy Nation:

Believers are referred to as a holy nation. This highlights the sanctification and set-apart nature of the community of believers. As followers of Christ, believers are called to live in a way that reflects God's holiness, distinct from the values and practices of the world.

People for His Own Possession:

Peter further emphasizes that believers belong to God. They are His treasured possession, chosen and set apart for His purposes. This affirms the intimate relationship believers have with God and the responsibility to live in a manner that brings honor and glory to Him.

Proclaimers of God's Excellencies:

The purpose of believers' identity as a chosen race, royal priesthood, and holy nation is to proclaim the excellencies of God. Through their words, actions, and transformed lives, believers are called to testify to the goodness, grace, and salvation found in Christ. They are ambassadors of the Gospel, inviting others to experience the transformative power of God's mercy and grace.

From Darkness to Light:

Peter reminds believers that they were once in darkness but have been called into God's marvelous light through Christ. This signifies the radical transformation that takes place when individuals accept Jesus as their Savior. Believers are no longer bound by sin and spiritual darkness but have been brought into the light of God's truth and salvation.

People of Mercy:

Peter concludes by emphasizing that believers have received mercy. In their former state, they were separated from God, deserving of judgment. But through Christ, they have experienced God's mercy and forgiveness. This understanding of God's mercy should motivate believers to extend grace and compassion to others.

Overall, 1 Peter 2:9-10 highlights the identity and purpose of believers in Christ. It reminds us that we are chosen, set apart, and called to proclaim God's excellencies as a holy nation and royal priesthood. It also serves as a reminder of God's mercy and the transformative power of His grace in our lives.

Huguan Siou being imparted by Bobohizan with familiar spirits and counterfeit holy spirit

Installation ceremony of Huguan Siou by Bobohizan (Bobolian)

The Kadazan-Dusun people of Sabah, Malaysia, have a rich cultural heritage, with the bobohizan (also known as bobolian) playing a central role in their spiritual and social practices. The bobohizan are traditional priestesses or shamans who act as intermediaries between the spiritual and physical worlds. One significant ritual involves the installation of the Huguan Siou, the paramount chief of the Kadazan-Dusun, which is believed to involve the imparting of familiar spirits by the bobohizan. This ritual and its implications are a complex interplay of cultural, spiritual, and political elements.Role of the Bobohizan in Installation RitualsThe bobohizan perform various rituals that are believed to invoke spirits for protection, guidance, and blessings. During the installation of the Huguan Siou, it is believed that familiar spirits are imparted to the chief, which theoretically links him to spiritual powers and ancestral guidance. However, such practices can also carry the belief in spiritual burdens or curses, especially from a Christian perspective.Scriptural Perspectives on Familiar SpiritsFrom a Christian viewpoint, the involvement of familiar spirits is seen as contrary to biblical teachings. Here are some relevant scripture verses:Deuteronomy 18:10-12 - "Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD."Isaiah 8:19 - "When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?"Leviticus 20:27 - "A man or a woman who is a medium or spiritist among you must be put to death. You are to stone them; their blood will be on their own heads."Impact on the Huguan Siou and the Kadazan-Dusun PeopleThe belief that the Huguan Siou carries familiar spirits can have significant socio-economic and political implications. If such spirits are considered malevolent or burdensome, they might be blamed for various misfortunes or challenges faced by the Kadazan-Dusun people. This includes:Economic Difficulties: Curses or negative spiritual influences might be believed to impede prosperity, causing economic hardships within the community.Political Struggles: The presence of familiar spirits could be perceived as a destabilizing force in political leadership, leading to internal conflicts or weak governance.Spiritual Consequences: The imparting of spirits not aligned with Christian beliefs could be seen as leading the community away from God, resulting in spiritual discontent or a sense of cursed existence.Real-Life IllustrationsHistorical Context: The Kadazan-Dusun community has faced various economic and political challenges historically, which some may attribute to spiritual factors. For instance, traditional rituals and the role of the bobohizan might be viewed with suspicion or as conflicting with modern religious beliefs.Conversion to Christianity: The spread of Christianity among the Kadazan-Dusun has led to a decline in traditional practices. New converts often renounce the old ways, including the influence of familiar spirits, seeing them as contrary to their new faith.Political Leadership: There have been instances where the leadership of the Huguan Siou faced criticism or challenges, which could be perceived as spiritual in nature. For example, disputes over the legitimacy of the Huguan Siou's authority might be seen as stemming from spiritual discontent or curses.Scholarly References"The Indigenous World 2020" by International Work Group for Indigenous Affairs (IWGIA): This report provides insights into the socio-political challenges faced by indigenous communities, including the Kadazan-Dusun."Spirit of Borneo: The Bobohizan in Sabah" by Rita Lasimbang: This work explores the role and rituals of the bobohizan, providing a detailed account of their spiritual practices and societal impact."Traditional Beliefs and Religion: A Study on Kadazan-Dusun Indigenous Religion" by Michael Tong: This dissertation examines the traditional religious practices of the Kadazan-Dusun and their interplay with modern religious influences.ConclusionThe belief in familiar spirits and their impartation by the bobohizan to the Huguan Siou highlights the complex interplay between traditional practices and modern religious beliefs among the Kadazan-Dusun people. Scriptural condemnations of such practices from a Christian perspective underscore the perceived spiritual dangers, while real-life challenges faced by the community can be interpreted through both cultural and spiritual lenses.

Remission of sins by God's grace through faith in the shed blood of Christ vs by baptism of water

In the discussion of **remission of sins**, two significant approaches emerge: **through the shed blood of Christ** and **by baptism of water**. Let's explore both perspectives:

1. **Remission of Sins through the Shed Blood of Christ**:

   - **Characteristics of Jesus Christ**:

     - **Jesus is God in flesh**: The Bible affirms that God was manifest in the flesh through Jesus, who is both divine and human¹.

     - **Eternal Existence**: Unlike other religious figures, Jesus existed in eternity past¹.

     - **Creator of the Universe**: Jesus played a role in creating all things in heaven and on earth¹.

     - **Sinless Life**: Jesus is the only one to have lived a sinless life¹.

     - **Exclusive Way to God**: Jesus declared Himself as the exclusive way to heaven, emphasizing that no one can come to the Father except through Him¹.

     - **Blood Atonement**: Ephesians 1:7 states that we have redemption through His blood, and nowhere does the Bible say that water (baptism) can wash away sin; forgiveness is always by blood¹.

2. **Remission of Sins by Baptism of Water**:

   - Some believe that water baptism is essential for the remission of sins. Acts 2:38 mentions baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

   - However, it's crucial to recognize that the Bible consistently emphasizes the role of **Jesus' shed blood** in forgiveness. Hebrews 9:22 states, "without shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins" ⁴.

   - Water baptism symbolizes cleansing and identification with Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. It is an outward expression of an inward transformation but does not directly wash away sins.

In summary, while water baptism holds symbolic significance, the **ultimate source of forgiveness** lies in **Jesus' sacrificial blood**. His shed blood provides redemption and remission of sins, making Him the central figure in our reconciliation with God.
