TOCOG Sermon 
by Lawrence A. Nowell

l. We have to have a relationship with our father. We can't love our families or relatives more than we love Yeshua. This is one of the keys to knowing God.

2. We must really realize that Yeshua is our brother and realize that Yaveh is our heavenly Father and then we can love them more than anyone else in our lives.

3. Yeshua laid down His life for us, so how could we not love Him?

4. We are part of a family, engaged to marry Jesus Christ. Hopefully, we will be married and not foul up and not make a ship-wreck of our faith by erroneously following some of the Jewish customs at Passover.           

5. We are taking the Passover in an unworthy manner by using the Satanic Jew ish system, which doesn't even acknowledge Yeshua, and we bring down upon ourselves damnation (Krema, which is sickness and disease and even death).   

6. Jews use "Adonai Eloheinu," meaning "Lord our God," to refer to the Father.

7. When having a Jewish Seder, the leader will hide a half piece of Matzah for a child to search for later in the evening. When it is found the child receives a re- ward of money or candy. This half-piece of matzah is eaten as the dessert and nothing else is eaten afterward. Drinks are okay.

8. The whole matzah represents Christ's body and should not be broken in half and hidden for children to hunt for later in the passover dinner evening. Some people say this hidden piece of matzah represents Christ until He returns.

9. Jews  call the piece of matzah that is hidden the "Afrikomen," a Greek word; this rite is not a Biblical practice and is not acceptable by TOCOG.

10. The Jews put a boiled egg on their Seder plate. This is a fertility symbol that represents Osiris and should not be used. It is a Satanic practice.

11. THE PASSOVER MEAL that is in the Bible says we have the unleavened bread, bitter herbs, such as horseradish, and wine, and the the roasted lamb.

12. The Bible is not just for idle reading. It is a manual of how to fix yourself. People in the Worldwide Churches of God will want it to go well with them, so they should want to follow every jot & tittle of their Father's instruction manual. 

13. If a person goes into a manual and starts moving the days of maintenance around  and changing them because it's tradition, Mark 7:7 says, "In vain they worship Me teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."

14. Yeshua commanded the "footwashing" to be on the evening before the 13th day. He told his disciples to do this in this manner in remembrance of me.

15. This footwashing should not be pushed over to another evening.

16. In John 13:2 the scripture tells that the footwashing was done by Jesus after his Last Supper. 
Jesus and his disciples sang a hymn before they departed.

17. TOCOG had the kiddush on the eve before the 13th Aviv(called Nisan)  this year, and we had the footwashing and sang a hymn; this is part of our doctrines now. As we obey every jot and tittle, we get a blessing for it.

18. We have the New crescent moon kiddush celebrations every month. We use regular bread for these, and  we have the footwashing also every month to remind us that we are here to serve as a servant, and not to just have religiosity without having application. This evening is also ended with singing a hymn.

19. When we observe these things on the evening before the 13th then we have the Passover of the evening before the 15th Nisan. Everything  falls into place.

20. After the Lord's Last Supper Jesus went out to the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives where He was arrested by the Jews led by Judas Iscariot.

21. Jesus was taken to the homes of the High Priests where elders, scribes and the Sanhedrin illegally tried Him in the dark hours of the night.

22. Bear Note: This trial was done at night because if the people knew the priests were framing Yeshua, they would have torn the phony priests apart! 

23. By the third hour on the 13th (9 A.M.) Jesus was taken as"an evil doer"  to Pilate who knew the Jewish leaders were envious of Jesus. 

24. Pilate sent Jesus to Herod who returned Jesus to Pilate. Barabbas was released and Jesus was sentenced about the sixth hour (12 noon) on the 13th to die by crucifixion by the Romans. 

25, Jesus couldn't be crucified the same day the Romans pronounced their sentence. So Jesus was taken to the dungeon overnight.

26. In the dungeon Roman soldiers mocked and tortured Him through the night.

27. The two scourgings that Jesus had endured, exposed His ribs and caused Him to bleed to death when He hung upon the cross for six hours the next day.

28. At 8 A.M. on the 14th Nisan in 30 A.D. the weakened Jesus was made to carry His cross bar to the stake, but the Roman soldiers made a Cyrenian help. 

29. Jesus was crucified at the third hour (9 A.M.) on the 14th Nisan, which was the Preparation Day for the Jews to observe Passover and the Holy Day.

30. From the sixth hour (12) to the ninth hour (3 P.M.) darkness covered the land as the bleeding Jesus hung on the cross.  

31. He breathed his last breath at 3 P.M. as the Lamb of God, just when the Jewish priests began the slaughter of the lambs for the Passover evening meal.

32. Since Jesus had died before sunset, a Roman soldier speared His side and did not break His legs.

33. Since Jesus was crucified at the third hour on the 14th Nisan, He would have had to have been sentenced the day before, the 13th at the sixth hour (12 noon).

34. THERE ISN"T ANY CONTRADICTION IN THE BIBLE.

35. After Jesus died and the lambs had been killed and roasted in the late part of the 14th, Jews prepared to have their Passover on the dark portion of the 15th, which was the first Day of Unleavened Bread, which continues seven days to 21.

36. The Hebrew calendar starts the day at sundown, so the dark portion of the evening is the beginning of the day portion of each 24 hour day.

37. The Passover celebration has been continued throughout the ages since the original exodus from Egypt in 1491 B.C. And in the first century, Jews in Jerusa-  lem continued having family dinners on the evening before the 15th Nisan.

38. The Bible lists the foods to be eaten at the Passover meal; we are to eat un- leavened bread, bitter herbs (such as, horseradish),  the roasted lamb, wine.

39. Today when we partake of the Passover we must not put an egg on the seder plate since it is a fertility symbol of Springtime, a Satanic food.

40. Easter eggs are a pagan symbol of rebirth and have nothing to do with Yeshua. Jews do not accept Yeshua as the Messiah, but do use the egg.

41. The ritual of using an "Afrikomen" piece of matzah to hide and then at the end of the evening to have a child find it for a reward is not Biblical. 

42. Jews end their evening meal by eating the Afrikomen matzah as dessert, while others eat it thinking it represents the return of Jesus Christ. Wrong!

43. Yeshua made a great sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sins; it is a great abomination to allow children to play with the matzah which represents Yeshua.

44. The brown spots on the unleavened bread represents the ripped flesh of Yeshua when He was scourged twice with the "cat of nine tails" whip and the holes remind us of the spear wound that pierced His side after His death.

45. Yeshua sacrificed His life when He bled to death to pay the penalty for our sins! We must discern and respect the matzah that represents this drama!!! 

46.Pilate marvelled that Jesus died in just six hours after having been hung on the stake, when most victims of crucifixion die after many more hours of agony.

47. I Corinthians 11:29 says, "For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body."

48. Verse 30 continues, "For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep (die). This is Krema judgment, temporary punishment, as tempor-ary physical death.

49. Those who take the Passover in an unworthy manner will bring Krema judg- ment upon themselves and won't be in the first resurrection. People will have to come up in the second resurrection when they will be able to learn to do it right.

50. Once we learn not to do something that is wrong, we are responsible. Read Hebrews 10:26, "For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins." Very serious statement!!

51. The Obedient Church of God is now teaching that we must take the Pass- over in a worthy manner. We are learning and applying God's commands.

52. Deuteronomy 16:16 requires, "Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Lord your God in the place which He chooses: at the Feast of Un-  leavened Breald, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Tabernacles; and they shall not appear before the Lord empty-handed."

53. The dark portion of Nisan 15 is the Passover evening: the meal is eaten--
Exodus 12:8 tells, "Then they shall eat the flesh (of the lamb) on that night roasted in fire, with unleavened bread, and with bitter herbs they shall eat it."

54. The Passover meal doesn't say we shouldn't be eating anything else. It doesn't say we should be making a big fancy meal. 

55. The point is that the meal with the kiddush that was eaten on the night before the 13th was a fancy meal where the disciples relaxed at the Lord's Last Supper.

56. But to do the Passover is painful because we have to inculcate in our minds that we are fleeing sin. And sin is bitter in our mouths.

57.  It is a meal that is eaten while we stand up and it is eaten hastily. We  wear our walking shoes and have vehicle keys in our pockets so that we are ready to flee evil temptations to sin, represented anciently by the Israelites leaving Egypt.

58. Exodus 12:11 says, "And thus you shall eat it (the Lord's Passover) with a belt on your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff oin your hand...in haste."

59. If a person just held up a staff in his or her hand, that would be religiosity. 

60. When a person holds the staff with the thoughts he or she might have to fight the mad Egyptians who had just lost their first born, now the person has a true inculcation of how to get through the Passover and to get out of Egypt quickly.

61. People who take the Passover meal properly don't sit around for a four hour meal. This can be done 12 times a year on the crescent moon night, and 13 times when there is a leap month  and 14 times, including "The Last Supper."

62. Watch out for the scripture that people quote from the Lord's words in Luke 22:15. "With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer." Jesus intensely desired to be with His disciples, but He would be dead.

63. Matthew 26:2 clarified Jesus situation: "You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified." 

64. So that year in 30 A.D. Jesus would die as the "Lamb of God" at the same time the lambs for the Jewish Passover meals would be killed and roasted.

65. When TOCOG members observe the Passover next year we will put bitter herbs ( grated horseradish) on our matzah. We will do this to inculcate into our minds how Yeshua was torn to pieces by scourgings. 

66. The Bible says to take unleavened bread with bitter herbs and also eat the lamb with bitter herbs. It is a night of affliction so we stand up ready to flee Egypt (sin.)

67. Now at The Last Supper celebration we may have regular bread because it is not the Passover Week. It was two days earlier on the evening before the 13th. 

68. The Lord changes not. Hebrews 13:8 states, "Jesus Christ is the same yester- day, today and forever." This confirms The Lord's Supper will always be 13th.  

69. If Christians partake of the Passover in the Jewish seder way, they are taking the Passover in an unworthy manner. They do not inculcate into their minds any- thing pertaining to Yeshua. 

70. The Jew's blessings honor "Adonai Eloheinu," meaning "Lord our God," the Father, and do not acknowledge Yeshua ha Moshiach at all. Jews do not believe Jesus is the Son of God who came as the Messiah to pay for the sins of men!!

71. Christians are NOT to use the pagan seder with an egg in it, and drinking four cups of wine during the dinner drags the event out too long. This is not wise.

72. To take the Passover in a worthy manner, put horseradish on the matzah and the lamb to inculcate into your mind how terrible the beating of Yeshua was.

73. Taking the Passover elements will include reading scriptures and the whole event shouldn't take more than 20 minutes to fulfill the meaning of "haste."

74. Exodus 12:10 tells us that none of the lamb should remain until morning, and "what remains of it until morning, you shall burn with fire." What remained of the lamb was a symbol of the holiness of Christ's body and was to be burned. 

75. The Passover and the Seder are two different things. The seder doesn't even believe in Yeshua ha Moshiach; the Jews only acknowledge him as a prophet.
Those who partake of the seder are taking the Passover in an unworthy manner.

76. When keeping the Passover Service we have the choice to serve the Devil or to serve the Lord, but we are going to be serving somebody.                     

77. If people use the Jewish kiddush by taking the seder plate with an egg on it, it symbolizes the fertility of the other god, Osiris.

78. Or if people are hide a piece of matzah for children to find, and then everyone eats it at the Passover Service, they are serving the Devil because the matzah represents the torn body of Christ as he died on the stake for the penalty of sins.

79. Because this is the seventh day of unleavened bread, this sermon is being given so there is no misunderstanding of what we are to do next year.

80. So because the Father is long-suffering and not willing for any to perish, he suffers for your understanding of Exodus 12:8. The Father wrote the manual so we don't go to unbelieving Jews who have written a different manual.

81. One more time, Exodus 12:8 says, "Then they shall eat the flesh of the lamb on that (Passover) night; roasted in fire, with unleavened bread, and with bitter herbs they shall eat it." These are our elements, and the wine.

82.  Let's put it in order: unleavened bread with the horseradish is painful to eat, but the Word says we should. These two foods are to be eaten with the lamb.

83.  We, God's Church, is the betrothed "Bride of Christ", so we have to do things our husband's way, not the Jewish way because their rites are wrong.

84. Some denominations eat small round wafers because these wafers symbolize the purity of the sun god, a pagan symbol, which are an abomination to God.

85. TOCOG eats the flat matzah bread because is unleavened, and has brown spots to remind us of the bruises inflicted upon Jesus just before His crucifixion.
Matzah also has holes in it to portray the pierced side of Jesus after he died.

86. Each of us should have a supply of Matzahs as well as food stored up for our physical salvation. Also, we can buy horseradish that will keep a long time.

87. Today's Bible lesson has taught us the differences between the Lord's Last Supper and the Passover, which occurred during the last week of Yeshua's life.

88.Christians who have made a baptismal vow are now in a "marriage covenant" with Yeshua; the Bible is our manual that tells us what to do in this relationship. 

89. Lawrence A. Nowell doesn't want his friends in the ex-worldwide Churches of God to be judged by Hebrews 10:26-27, which says, "For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries."

90. These verses in Hebrews can apply to those who knowingly partake of the Passover in an unworthy manner.

91. Another emergency is in this world. We are in a war now. The West Coast of America is being radiated! Western Canada and all of Washington State, Oregon, and California south to Los Angeles is the same as a nuclear war.
Radiation detectors have been shut off on the West Coastal areas.

92. This is so devastating that they had to change all the radiation levels a thousand fold in- crease for exposure to strontium -90; a 3,000 to 100,000 fold hike for exposure to iodine-131; and an almost 25,000 rise for exposure to radioactive nickel-63.

93. Western United States is in a nuclear war right now since the crippled nuclear plants in Japan are anticipated to be spuing out radiation for another six to nine months before their containment. Many do not realize the fall out is coming down.

94. Ann Coulter has had the absurdity to say that "radiation is good for us."

95. We are in the "Birth Pangs" of the End Times. And men's hearts will fail them for fear. So what shall we do?

96.Green house coverings will be needed for gardens. Lawrence put 15 tomato plants in a small green house and will supply them with underground  water. 

97. Tennessee is safe from radiation levels and water on our hillside comes from underground springs that have never been exposed to air.

98. Gardens must be covered so they are not rained on, and they must be watered with some kind of water that is safer that tap water. Perhaps a filter can be put on the hose to try to filter out the radioactive particles. 

99. We have to get it into our heads that there are radio active particles!! 

100. The United States has Homeland Security; camps are to lock-up citizens!

101. At the airports we aren't very secure when we are being gropped by customs agents who ex-ray everything. There hasn't been a single incident among the 700 million people that go through the airport on all the flights in one year. 

102. The "shoe- bomber" and the "underwear bomber" were CIA plots in order for them to get people to cowtow to be gropped, saying "Yes, sir, no sir, three bags full sir!" Putting people in subservience is what it is all about. Psychological war.

103. The "underwear bomber's" father called the airport and told them to "stop my son. He's crazy." But, the CIA pushed him right through.

104. Nineteen men who were involved in the September 11, 2001, devastation of the Twin Trade Towers and Building 7 in New York City were from Saudi Arabia. 
The CIA got them through customs and literally pushed them on to the airplanes.

105. There are reports from the Middle East that six of the Saudis  have been tracked down, that they are still alive. The point is they were not from Iraq, a country that had nothing to do with the tragedy. 

106. This fall, September 2011, Jerusalem will probably be divided.

107. It is suspicious that Japan has been destroyed. It is HAARP that generates the blue-green clouds and in Fukashima area there were green clouds in the sky. 

108. Energy from HAARP was bounced off the Ionosphere and back down into the ground twenty minutes before the earthquake, subsequent tsunami floods!!

109. Why is all this happening? When Japan is destroyed, technology of the Japanese parts would not be available so that this world will be starting to fall apart. "They" will be able to deliberately wreck the world.            

110. These same Neo-cons deliberately flew two planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center. And Dick Cheny was at the North Palm command telling the Air Force, "No! You can't shoot them down. No!" "But sir. But sir. They are heading for New York!" "No! Stand down! Stand down!"

111. Really! This is part of the big picture of what is going on. It's all Satanic to cause the 9.0 earthquake in Japan.

112. And the USA shot the missile on the eve before November 9th, 2010. This was predicted that something would happen.  

113.  The USA did shoot a missile westward toward China, but China didn't re-spond! It takes 200 years for China to make a decision on about anything. That's the nature of the Chinese. They didn't want to respond. 

114. And then they knew that the U.S. Neocons wouldn't pay back the debt the USA owes if they are at war with China. So that's why the U.S. shot a missile off to China. And it was a missile, in spite of all the misinformation out there.

115. Pray that TOCOG is protected because we are telling that the Neocons knocked down the two towers and Building Seven that wasn't even hit by a plane!

116. In those Twin Towers and in Building Seven was all the information of where all the money was being spent.

117. The Neocons are going to wreck this earth ship that we are on. And it's beginning right now with all this radiation in order to loot the cargo of the earth.
And they are going to loot the United States of America as well. 

118. And the Neocons are going to wreck the ship of the United States and drive us into bankruptsy, which they already have and privatize and sell off everything in the United States to fulfill prophecy that the ailen will rule over us.

119. It's just like the USA is the Titanic and the captain is deliberately headed straight for the iceberg. There is one event after another in order to destroy the American economy and cause chaos to bring in the New World Governmrent.

120. These are criminal acts by the Neocon members of the U.S. Government. And the newspapers enable this. Because the FOX news and CNN don't tell people there was thermite throughout the metal structure of the World Trade Centers. Thermite was used to cut beams. They didn't report that. 

121. They didn't report that blasting caps were found inside the pile of rubble. They didn't report that metal was still burning three days later where thermite had cluster- ed in pools of metal. They didn't report the firemen said there were explosions. 

122. What the Neocons did was to fire Dan Rather who started reporting on some of these things. Anybody who gets out of line, no matter who that person is, he or she gets fired to be replaced by another talking head that espouses the party line.

123. There is actually a sheet that comes out to all the announcers and it tells them what "buzz" words to use. They are told when to say "terrorist" and when to say "freedom fighters"--all contrived by the Neocons that own the public broadcasting networks. 

124. The Neocons have no right to own the public broadcasting networks because the people own the airwaves and the Neocons are getting them for free. But those are the people's air waves.

125. When Christ comes back, things will be straightened out in a hurry.

126. Remember, Christ comes back on Trumpets and then there are "ten days of awe" when the ten kings who are over ten groups of nations of the world will be subdued before Atonement.

127. There are 203 nations that will be divided into 10 groups, and when these groups of nations are untangled, Christ will set up his people as a king over each division. And this is what is going to be happening on the Day of Trumpets  to the Feast of Atonement.

128. The people of God are part of a historical moment. 

129. During these seven Days of Unleavened Bread, we are to rejoice because we are a part of the rebirth of the Church of God, The Obedient Church of God. And we are part in 2018 of the rebirth of God's Church.

130. And God the Father and Yeshua aren't going to use any Jewish seder in order to teach the people to flee from sin during the 100 years that is in Isaiah 65:20, "For the child shall die one hundred years old, but the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed..." The people will be taught to flee from sin during the hundred years and repent of their evil ways.

131. When Christ rules, people will be taught the original Holy Days for the Lord changes not. Zechariah 14:16, The Feast of Tabernacles will be kept yearly. 

132. It's time to face the Neocons and know what is going on with them. These people knew that the Japanese earthquake would cause destruction to the six nuclear reactors. There are serious problems with at least two of them.

133. If anyone asks if we believe in conspiracy theories, we say "No!", but we do believe in FACTS. We believe in TRUTH. 

134. TOCOG does believe the blue-green clouds in the skies were seen before the earthquake hit Japan. We do believe physics: that the towers in New York fell in freefall, which is impossible if they were not imploded, that is, blown up.

135. It's time to face the giant. And it's time for the walls of an unrighteous Jewish seder to come tumbling down, and time to follow Exodus 12:8, which tells us how to do the Passover correctly. Walls of unrighteousness are tumbling down.

136. Now, on this last day of unleavened bread, that which Lawrence is giving is a Stephen-like speech. Remember, Stephen spoke out and ended up being stoned to death. Be willing to die like Stephen because the truth makes us free.

137. Speaking the truth about these Neocons, speaking the truth about Japan, and speaking the truth about the 9-11 tragedy makes us free because we are speaking about Satan and these Satanic people. 

138. When we speak the truth that Dick Cheny told the Air Force to "Stand down," because he wouldn't allow the planes headed for New York to be shot down, we are standing up of the truth. 

139. Interestingly, those Hi-jackers of the 9-11 jet planes could never fly those big planes. They couldn't even take off and land the little planes at the air port where they trained. It's a joke.

140.  In order to fly into those tall buildings, it took military precision. And in the picture the plane tilted at the last minute, making a G-force turn so the wings went into the building also. Is that a conspiracy theory? No! That's a fact.

141. Even commercial pilots say they couldn't have flown one of those jets that precisely. It was done electronically with military precision. Perhaps one trained pilot could have done it, but certainly none of the phony hi-jackers.

142. The Neocons are wrecking America deliberately in order that they may bring in the New World Order - - "order out of chaos" as printed on a dollar bill.

143. Things will get temporarily better, then temporarily worse, and then its going to get really worse.  

144. All oiur rights are being taken away so we can't shut up. They are allowing people to speak out on issues of our times in order to foment international situa-
tions so the U S. Government can order 400,000 troops who are on American soil to start rounding us up.

145. They are allowing things on the internet now and they're putting out disinfor- mation on 9-11, false flag stories, theories, such as a bomb being strapped under the plane that went into one of the twin towers. The picture was photo-enhanced!

146. Just like Stephen, we are all going to be martyred for speaking the truth against the ruling authorities, against the Pharisees, against people who are using the seder, which they shouldn't be using because the seder is Satanic.

147. So, therefore, we're being allowed to speak out in this period of time before we are all going to be rounded up and taken to concentration camps.

148.  And hopefully, we won't be rounded up until we get to the place of safety  where there is a river at the end of our street. And if they pour out a flood against us, the earth saves the woman, the church.

149. If not, let's go into the Tribulation and have our heads chopped off. Because we're goin to get better heads and a better body. That's a pretty good exchange.

150. So we don't worry. Be happy. Don't worry. 

151. All our things on the internet are datamined. All of our movements are being datamined. Go to Startpage.com and that will help slow them down.

152. Take the battery out of your cell phone when you are having private conver- sations. Your cell phone is programmed to record your voice and conversations are transmitted when the battery is in, even when its turned off.

153. And your computers can also listen to you.

154. We are living in terrible, terrible times. This is just the beginning of how to save ourselves.

155. Our sermon is on God's Healing Love. We are the children of God who are the only ones who are going to be able to save this world by following the Torah as it is written so that the Father doesn't smite the earth with a curse. 

156. The Obedient Church of God is on a mission, on a mission from God to have this group that we are in so that God won't smite the earth with a curse.

157. This message on love is being given on the seventh-day of the Days of Unleavened Bread, a day of assembly for God's people.

157. Remember Woodstock back in August 17-18, 1969? Lawrence A. Nowell was part of that group and he did what everyone else did in that era. Lawrence is a musician and you know what musicians get into and he has done it all. But he has repented of all that.

158.The point is we are the children of God.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

159. A singer came upon a child of God who was walking along the road and he told stories she had never heard before. She went on down to Woodstock where she realized she had to get herself back to God.

160.  Today people can go the Tennessee Hills where the servants of God teach that we've all got to get ourselves back to God.              

161. Remember, when Yeshua arose from his grave He threw His burial clothes           aside in a heap upon the floor, but He folded His napkin that was over His face and head as a sign that He is coming back.

162. Now when the master at the table wanted to come back to his meal, he let his servant know by folding his napkin in a particular neat way and by putting it in front of his plate.

163.Jesus is coming back. We can be ready for him by having love in our hearts.

164. This is so impotant because we no better than the tax collectors, the most hated people of that first century generation. 

165. "For if you love those who love you, what (spiritual) reward  do you have? Don't even the tax collectors do this? Love those who love them? " Matthew 5:46

166. Verse 44 tells us "Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you, persecute you."
Having loving kindness, we don't dispute with them or make life difficult for them.

167. Why? "That you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on  unjust."

168. If our enemies aren't partiipating in crinimal acts, we do our best for them.

169. If we greet the brethren only and do more for them than others, we are no better than the tax collectors. 

170. Do we greet the Arabs in our town if they are not committing criminal acts? Well, they hate us and persecute us and are going to kill us for they are told in their Koran to kill inidels and then they will go to heaven. 

171. Are we going to be just like the Arabs and want to kill them? No! We are supposed to be like our Father in heaven.

172. LOVE is not just a feeling, it IS AN ACTION. Love is based on how we treat others.
 
173. Going back to 1871 Albert Pike said they were going to create a "war between the Christians and the Arabs." He predicted this. And this hatred is how the third world war will come about. And therefore, don't be an accomplice to Satan's way, the Neocon's ways.

174. We are not to excoriate the Arabs, but rather show love to our enemies because the Arabs didn't blow up our Trade Tower Buildings. The Neocons did!! ware bomber" and "shoe bomber" were CIA plants. But in order for Satanic leaders to fulfull Albert Pike's 1871 agenda  1871 to foment a war between the Christians and the Arabs, we don't fall for this.

176.  We bless our Arab brothers because we are Christians. We want to show our Arab brothers we are cousins. They are descendants of Ishmael, Abraham's first child, a son of Hagar, while Israelites descend from Sarah's son Isaac. 

177. There was one tribe of Arabs, the Amalakites, that Joshua defeated with the sword. And the Lord swore He would have war with Amalek  every generation!
Exodus 17:14-16 They were only one tribe of the Arab nations of the Middle East.

178. Matthew 22:36-39 Now we know the Great Commandment is that we are supposed to love the Lord our God with all our heart, and the second command- ment is "you shall love your neighbor as yourself."

179. "On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets," Verse 40
 We treat others, strangers on the street, the way we would like to be treated.We don't make life difficult or them. 

180, We let the scenario play out where there are all these different  religions, so that God can prove to all the heavenly hosts that every religion falls apart and collapses in on itself, and that only THEOCRACY works.

181. Rome was one of the most powerful nations of the world, imposing their gods on people of the Empire. The Romans had religions to all their gods, but all those gods are toast.

182. The Islamic religion is going to fall apart very nicely all on its own. So we won't oppose them when they are building their mosque in New York City.

183. If we don't let Arabs build their mosques, they could say, we should have been allowed to try our religion all over the world, it might have worked. Our Sharia law might have saved infidels.

184. What is going to happen? God is going to prove to people that the Sharia law will NOT save anybody, because it is a mean cruel system. But if we are trying to oppose the Islamic religion, we are not letting things play out.

185. The gestalt of this is we want the Arabs to have their Islamic religion and their four-story building for their mosque in New York City. We want them to have their Sharia Law so that it can be proven that their system doesn't work.

186. If we try to oppose Obama and replace him with some righteous Christian leader, the "man of sin" couldn't come. We would be delaying Christ's return.

187. We want Christ to return to save us. The script has already been written.
But those who hate the Arabs are fouling up things because they don't even follow the example of love.

188. Biblical love is not just to our friends, but to our enemies

189. Biblical loving is based on how we act. How we treat others.  The Bible's definition of love is part of our study on the last Day of Unleavened Bread.

190. I Corinthians 13:1 tells us, "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal."

191. Verse 2,"And though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing." Jesus Christ could move mountains with His faith. When we are Spirit Beings we'll have faith that Yeshua can move mountains.

192. Verse 3, "And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and through I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing."

193. Verse 4. LOVE suffers long (is patient).  Being patient means suffering long with others and is patient in affliction.

194. LOVE is kind (to all people and to all of God's creation). 

195. Don't get into the deception that we are commanded by God to kill the Amalakites.  In Genesis 17:13 "Joshua defeated Amalek" and the Lord swore that He would have "war with Amalek from generation to generation." Verse 16. The Amalakites are only one of the many Arab tribes.

196. David was to kill certain tribes. But that's not what we are being command- 
ed. We are commanded to love as our Father loves. Big difference. 

197. Verses 4-5 "Love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil."

198. Christians must not behave rudely, that is, raise their voice at others, and are not provoked. When somebody does something wrong, we ask them to stop and discus it with them, but not in anger--rather in kindness.  

199. I Corinthians 13:6, says, "Love does not rejoice in iniquity." Avoids sinful activities. TOCOG does tell people when they are spiritual adulterers, and that is if they love their mate more than  their Father and Yeshua.

200. LOVE REJOICES IN THE TRUTH. I Corinthians 13:6

201. I Corinthians 13:7, "LOVE NEVER FAILS" if we want to b children of our Father.

202. We are in a God-Family NOW, so naturally we love our spiritual Father more than our Physical father.

203. Jesus says to love our neighbor and ou enemies. Are the Muslims our enemies? Yesl Am I a Muslim fan? No. I'm against the Muslims and their Islamic beliefs. But I love them. They're my brothers. They are our brothers.

204. We are to love all of God's children, God's creation. We love God's animals, and we even love God's mice. 

205. To get mice out of your home, don't use mouse traps that smash them. And don't use poison bait or else you will have dead mice in your walls. 

206. A trap that lures mice in with food will close so a person can carry them out- side where they belong.This is the humane way to remove them from your home.

207. Catch little creatures that God created and put them outside.

208. TOCOG wants us to have that set of mind in terms of our inculcating the quality of how to have love in avery aspect of our lives, so our inner character will change, and then we can BECOME MORE LIKE GOD.

209. Yeshua had a sensitive "heart", and weeped over Jerusalem, and we should have a sensitive heart "also" just like Yeshua did!

210. Don't have the attitude that we are king of the world and we go smashing through it, removing anything that is in our way.

211.  When people do ugly things to you, pray for them for "they know not what they do." That is how we avoid hating them. Yeshua had this attitude.

212. In Matthew 22:39 the Bible tells us to love our Muslim  brothers when Jesus said, "You shall love your neighbor as your self."

213. There are unfruitful works of darkness and those who do them won't inherit the Kingdom! Practicing the "works of the flesh" changes our character.

214. Galatians 5:19 states, "Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, conten- tions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; ...those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God."

215. If a person has wrath for the Arabs, that person has "works of the flesh," as opposed to a work of love. We don't bash any Arabs who live in our neighbor-hood, or give them a hard time, even though they may have hatred in their hearts 

216. We let them prove to themselves that their way of life as taught in the Koran doesn't work. Yeshua allows everyone to have free-will so they can learn the hard way that God's thoughts and ways are higher than man's thoughts, ways.

217. And we have to have love for theives who steal from us.

218. Hebews 6:10 "For God is not unjust (unrighteous) to forget our work and (overlook) our labor of love which we have shown toward his name in that we have ministered to the saints, and do minister."

219. "By this (showing concern for our brethren) all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love of one another." John 13:35 And we love Christians of other denominations as well.

220. Paul tells the Romans in  8:38-39 "I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." 

221. Let Christ settle you down and make a permanent home in your heart.

222. When Stephen was stoned to death, "he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, 'Lord, do not charge them with this sin.' And when he had said this, he fell asleep."

223. We are going to be killed, martyred, and we forgive them, for they know not what they do. We've got to have pity and mercy on others.

224. Romans 8:37  reminds us, "Yet in all these things we are more than con-  querors through Him who loved us."

225. Hosea 2:23 says, "I will have mercy on her who had not attained mercy; Then I will say to those who were not my people, 'You are my people!' And they shall say, 'You are my God!' "

226. We better have love for the Arabs who are not God's people because they are going to come up in the second resurrection. How are you going to explain some of the mean and nasty things you did and have said about them? 

227. Arabs are going to be God's people. And they are going to follow the Torah better than you or I follow the Torrah because look how they follow the Koran.

228. I Peter 2:15 explains, "For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men--...as free, as bondservants of God.
Verse 16 continues, "Honor all people, Love the brotherhood, Fear God..."

229. Paul told the Ephesians in 3:14-17, "I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ...that He would grant you ...to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith."
