Jesus, messiah-king of Edom

Looking to Genesis ch. 27, both Esau and Jacob were blessed to compete for royal positions by their father Isaac.  Isaac gave Israel a greater blessing than Edom, and thus it is such that we should not abhor Edomites.

I understand Jesus as a messiah-king of Edom, and those who were nobles in medieval Europe all had Edomite genealogies stemming from the Royal House of Troy.  Many agree that the followers of Judaism had terrible times then.  Things are different now.  Already many have said, "This is a good time to be a Jew."  I am hoping that the next 1,000yrs brings prosperous Jewish dynasties, like the reign of Solomon and David 3,000yrs ago.

Maybe there are 1,000yr Gregorian calendar cycles?  And, if there is a Jewish messiah-king, then it could spell the end of the myths of Jesus and his adamant followers.  Count me in!

Plants Can Do That? On Talmud Shabbat 30b

The Prophets predicted that the in the era of Mashiach plants would sprout amazing things like clothes (30b verse 39).  This is how: use DNA and logistics.

The idea is to manipulate plants; for example, by altering DNA codes in an orderly way for what we need.  DNA is something that both plants and animals have in common, and that if given the proper molecular machinery can make almost anything relative to life.  This part of the idea may include breeding plants for specific traits.

Could we develop plants that make shirts, as is suggested in Shabbat 30b vs. 39? – Absolutely, and especially in a controlled environment.  The key would be to manipulate select plants spatially in their growth, such as the logistics of size and placement, and then also genetically alter their flower designs to get the right stuff.  The easiest way to start would be with easier weaves, and then progress to smaller and tighter fit weaves.  For example, this strategy was also used in the progression of hard drive development in the case of computers.  Computers hard drives with less information capacity came first before smaller and smaller hardware with more information capacity.  And remember, the ancestors of Chihuahuas are the same as the ancestors of pit bulls.

Matters of learning'-what is that? — As R. Gamaliel sat and lectured, Woman is destined to bear every day, for it is said, the woman conceived and beareth simultaneously.34  But a certain disciple scoffed at him, quoting, 'there is no new thing under the sun.'35  Come, and I will show you its equal in this world,36  be replied. He went forth and showed him a fowl. On another occasion R. Gamaliel sat and lectured, Trees are destined to yield fruit every day, for it is said, and it shall bring forth boughs and bear fruit:37  just as the boughs [exist] every day, so shall there be fruit every day. But a certain disciple scoffed at him, saying, but it is written, 'there is no new thing under the sun!' Come, and I will show you its equal in this world, replied he. He went forth and showed him the caper bush.38  On another occasion R. Gamaliel sat and expounded, Palestine is destined to bring forth cakes and wool robes, for it is said, There shall be an handful of corn in the land.39  But a certain disciple scoffed at him, quoting, 'there is no new thing under the sun!' 'Come, and I will show you their equal in this world,' replied he. He went forth and showed him morels and truffles;40  and for silk robes [he showed him] the bark of a young palm-shoot.41

Pain or Suffering Problems?



While suffering exists in this age, we must believe Gd is omnipotent. Why then does Gd allow horrid things if He can stop any disease like magic?

To allow disease is not a sign of Gd’s impotence, even if it is a condition that is chronic and/or causing excruciating pain. Just as a rich man may lose everything in seconds, so to can any creature suffer disease. Similarly, as any man may gain a fortune in seconds, so to can we receive speedy recovery from any and every chronic disease.

Hashem desires for us to do His will; that we wrestle to understand His ways. He longs for us to choose Him through hearkening to His call. He desires for us to love Him, all of us, from the most pious king to the lowliest worm, but only of our own accord. While we don’t know why some may suffer; we know justice must prevail, either divine reward or divine punishment, according to our deeds. 


We can’t have faith and believe in the possibility of the incurable!

Maimonides taught that to deny Moshiach’s coming, and subsequently the arrival of a world without suffering, is equivalent to denial of Torah in its entirety. Thus, we are able to derive that in the age of Moshiach, pain and suffering will cease because of our own doing, as then we will be completely occupied with our relationship with G-d; that is when G-d gets His way, and if we love G-d then His way is our ideal.

Rather, than stumbling blocks, the existence of pain and suffering should be motivators for us to help Gd achieve His ultimate goal; peace on earth.

Live By Your Words, No Matter How Fantastic They Seem and Live to Be 1,000!!!

My reasoning for believing that I am the Messiah comes from sound Biblical reasoning.


March 25th, 2000 I was hospitalized for psychosis. When I saw the doctor, he had a yarmulke on, so I figure that he is Jewish, and for some reason, completely insanity, and not knowing what I was saying I stated that I am the Messiah. Since, then I have been unable to shake that belief, and the Bible says that is the correct thing to do, "You must fulfill what has crossed your lips and perform what you have voluntarily vowed to the Lord your God, having made the promise with your own mouth (Deuteronomy 23:24 JPS, others 23:23)



"Positive Commandment 94

Fulfilling Verbal Obligations

"That which issues from your lips you shall keep and perform"—Deuteronomy 23:24.

We are commanded to carry through that which we pledge to do [or not to do]."



Strangely, the pathway back to sanity has no been to apologize, and say that I am sorry for stating that I said I am the messiah.  In order to understand this, I must live by what I have said.  I have no intent on being a liar.  I don't even wish to be a superstar.  What I believe is that me, the messiah, is a secret to this world.  I don't seek crowds or popularity, merely the desire to impact this world in a positive way so that I may see this following verse fulfilled: Isaiah 65:20. "There shall no longer be from there a youth or an old man who will not fill his days, for the youth who is one hundred years old shall die, and the sinner who is one hundred years old shall be cursed.  http://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/15996"

The people of this generation frustrate me.  They say, I am 80, therefore I shall die at an old age.  However, the greatest generation lived to be much older than their grandparents generation.  To the peoples of earth I beseech you:  There once was a time in the middle ages and the dark ages of Europe where the life expectancy was somewhere between a mere 25 to 30 years old.  If you had told these people that it would be common to see folks live to be 80 they would have laughed.  Certainly, all but a very small minority would have believed that living to 80 is possible.  It is this way with our generation.  I need for people to give up on the idea of living to a 80 and then dying.  Believe me, when I say that one who dies at 80 is but a youth.  Who can identify how old folks will live to?  I beseech you that we too are possibly like lobsters, which are hypothetically immortal (John C. Guerin (2006). "Emerging area of aging research: long-lived animals with "negligible senescence"". Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 1019 (1): 518–520.doi:10.1196/annals.1297.096PMID 15247078.).

Craig Christ

That which emerges from your lips, you shall keep and do. - Deuteronomy 23:24

  This verse is the reason I cleave to the idea that I am the messiah. Though I said it all the way back in 2000 CE to a psychiatrist after believing that I was being poisoned with carbon monoxide, and that I had thought I had a conversation with Gd, this somehow emerged from my lips, and I don't know why. However, I was sincere when I said it.

That is, I was hospitalized for the first time for pyschosis.  During this hospitalization, I thought I had realized that I am the messiah.  At this time I was very sick.  I am over 6'0" tall, and I weighed 150 Ilbs, which is about 50 less than I should weigh at an optimal weight.  I couldn't remember to eat and bathe.  Sometimes I couldn't remember to class at Rutgers, and I also suffered from chronic fatigue and hyper-sexuality.  Prior to talking to Gd, my abilty to masterbate was the only thing I could take pride in, but then the Risperdal prevented even that.  I fell into a deep depression where I pondered killing myself all day long as I worked the Ridge Club Golf Course in Sandwich, MA.

Prior to my hospitalization, I thought I met Gd, and though it may have only been a hallucination, this hallucination of Gd caused me to believed.

God: I never thought you would get so far.

God:  I am punishing you.

Me:  Why are you punishing me (shouted)?

God: I get everyone sooner or later.

(The last comment, "I get everyone sooner or later," is possibly Gd's commentary on Isaiah 65:23. And it shall be from new moon to new moon and from Sabbath to Sabbath, that all flesh shall come to prostrate themselves before Me," says the Lord. - from www.chabad.org)
