Tangent topic: Tongues of Fire? Or cloven tongue (like cloven hooves).
Ezekiel 3. 26: ‘And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.
Very prophetic as that is what has happened to any who pray or praise in the name of JESUS! There prayers are made ineffectual simply because of there redirection to the devil! Therefore they’re prayers are like the babbling’s of a ‘MUTE’ person! Why? Because they are whether they know it or not - Rebellious!
Strange Tongue
by Sherry Shriner
http://www.sherryshriner.com
I was seeking the Lord on the whole issue of speaking in tongues because although it was an area I didn't even want to deal with, I had been asked to seek Him on it. As He spoke to me I just casually jotted down notes of what He was saying and I will list those here. Then He gave me a more formal word on it and I have that also. Again, this is an area I didn't even want to go into because years ago I had gone into it and He led me out of it. And those who are in it are adamant of their beliefs in it. To me it was like, "great, more enemies." But the Lord knows I will do as He asks even though I don't want to. My life is His. I serve the King. If you don't like what He reveals below don't come to me about it, rather, seek HIM for the truth and as He says, He will reveal it to you Himself.
I wrote this down as He spoke to me:
-Speaking in tongue is a demonic manifestation of the ghost of the spirit, not MY Holy Ghost.
- The cloven tongues of fire (Acts) was a mimickry of the tongues of fire I used in Egypt.
- The Scriptures were manipulated, watered down, then misunderstood. I do not speak in strange tongue to My people. I speak so they can understand Me and My Words. I do not know their strange tongue, it comes from within their own spirit, it is not of Me but of witchcraft and guile.
- I don't require a strange language to speak to Me. In their own foolishness they bring forth words against Me to mock and defile their own spirits.
- Meditate on and in Me does not require a prayer language concocted and conceived by the treacherous to blaspheme Me.
- ‘Great delusion’ is upon those who seek after 'signs' other than Me. Did I not say a foolish generation would seek after signs? This manifestation is their "sign" that they have reached My throne room but I say unto you no one has been to My throne room and seen Me. Delusion is guile and they call upon the devil in their strange tongue and chants and who serve a false angel of light and of My righteousness. Do not be deceived. I am not mocked. But I am patient for them to come to Me and seek the truth as it is in Me.
His Word to me:
"My child, I have given you much knowledge. Those who will listen will find life. There's truth in freedom, when they set themselves free of deception, they will find truth in Me.
Hallowed by MY Name, MY Kingdom come, MY will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Yet many call upon another Name and are living in torment and deception. The false light gives them largeness of life, grandiose appearances and deceptions and they discern not that it is not of Me.
They will scorn you and rebuke you, they will mock you and degrade you. Stand tall my child. It is Me they scorn and rebuke. It is Me they mock and degrade. You are My mouthpiece and have been appointed even before your time to walk and serve Me in these days.
Does not My Word say to test the spirits? They refuse to accept My warning and they carry on in their delusions. Tell them to repent! To repent for not listening to My words and for following after man's. Listen to the Prophets of the Beast as they "call unto Me" in their strange tongue yet it is not I who answers it. They serve their father the devil. And now how is this strange tongue different than what My own people speak? Curses and vanity comes from their lips and they think they are worshipping Me.
Did not I teach this to you years ago? To stop cursing My Name? Yes, child, because you sought My heart and I revealed it to you. Now tell them! Do not hide or keep this from the hearers because I know you want to. I love you child, and I know your heart. And I know you are burdened by yet even more enemies in My camp that will arise against you.
They will call you false because they want to cling to their own deceptions. Tell them to seek My heart for truth and I will reveal it to them. And I WILL reveal it to them. If they seek Me they won't have a leg to stand on to persecute you. For you are My mouthpiece and messenger.
Stand against the giant’s daughter, stand against those who mock you because they will see you standing beside Me in glory and they will know that you are of Me. Woe! To those who refuse to hear or seek Me and come against you. Woe! I will be your strength. Let them come against ME and do not fret child, do not fret. I am with you and they will know this.
The day of visitation is coming. The day of invitation when I will invite My Bride to share in My Glory.
Many will be left behind because guile has been found among and within them. Tell them to repent or be left behind. And when they are left, the time to repent is still open for them. They must be found without guile to share in My Kingdom or they will be tested as martyrs.
Do you see in the Scriptures that those martyrs for My Name are without number? Does not My book say that white robes are given to those who come out of great persecution? What is termed as tribulation? Watered down, My Word has been watered down so the people cannot understand the simple truths. They need to Seek Me.
When I speak to My children their own ghost spirit arises to counter and mimic Me. Tell them to put to death the works of the flesh. To rebuke the flesh and strive only with Me daily.
(My Edit: Their preference for the Flesh causes their soul to cling to their flesh and become their ‘spirit equivalent’, but in a far lesser form. Yahuah’s preference is that our soul should cling to our higher spirit and the flesh to be ‘done away with’. This is again their own ‘spirit of Jezebel’ rising up and deceiving their souls).
I do not speak in strange tongue. And their spirits are speaking strangeness to Me. Tell them.
Be not afraid, whatever a man sows, that is what he reaps. If they sow unto Me it will be eternal. If they sow unto the flesh, it will lead to destruction. Tell Them!
Stay in Me and reveal My Words to the world. I will lead them to you. I will see and know who comes against My servant and I will deal with them. I know your weary of the attacks and maliciousness from your brethren, but I tell you this, MY people have ears to hear and those who don't are Not MY Bride. Tell them to come to ME and enquire of this strange tongue and I Myself will reveal it to them.
I love you child, be faithful in Me and don't fret. I am the Lord your God whom you serve and whom has reserved much glory and abundance in My Kingdom for you.
Tell them!
Thus saith the LORD your God.

Acts 14. 26: ‘From Attalia they sailed back to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work they had now completed. Antioch becomes a central HUB, from where the deceptions spring!
If anyone just blindly gives Luke, the benefit-of-the-doubt, they may as well just sell their souls!
He lived right next to the famous Damascus road where his buddy Saul was supposed to have had his encounter with Yahushua! Saul coming from Tarsus had to go through Antioch on his way to meet? (We’ll see who soon), so there is little doubt that Luke was with Saul on that ‘trip’, to write any such accounts of ‘great lights’ or ‘blindness’! Let us not forget Luke was a great Physician and probably the best in Antioch! (Roman controlled anyway). There are no witness accounts as to whether or nor Saul was really blinded anyway. It is more likely that they travelled normally, as this then fits with the fact that when they reached their destination, guess who was waiting for them?
Ananias!
This is an excerpt from Sherry Shriner’s web site: http://www.justgivemethetruth.com/
Paul and Ananias (This shows the kind of perception that can only be born, of the Spirit!)
Yahushua said that true prophets can be distinguished from false prophets by ‘their fruits’. He mused, ‘Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?’ In other words, he told us to check out the story of a so-called prophet or person of influence. If the story doesn’t add up, then the person in question should be viewed as a false prophet. Having stated that, here is some additional information about Paul. Firstly, Paul was linked—from the moment of his so-called conversion in Damascus—to one of the same high-priests who had Yahushua killed. The man’s name was ‘Ananias’. (My edit: I’ve added the verses 11 and 12 to this for clarification).
Acts 9. 10-12: ‘And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth, And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight’.
It was Ananias then who restored Saul's sight after being blinded during his so-called vision of Yahushua at Damascus.
The Bible states that Ananias complained to the Lord that Paul had ‘authority from the chiefs’ to bind all that call on thy name" (Acts 9:14). So Ananias was apparently quite familiar with the hierarchy of the high priests and the Sanhedrin. Ananias may have been somewhat influential himself. Possibly a former high priest. Ananias may have been one of the high priests in the Sanhedrin who questioned Yahushua before his execution. In the King James Version of the Bible, this man's name is spelled ‘Annas’. He was the father-in-law of Joseph Caiaphais, the high-priest who decreed that Yahushua must die! (John 11. 49-51). In fact, Yahushua was first questioned by Annas after being arrested by the Sanhedrin guards. Annas turned Yahushua over to Caiaphas who turned him over to Pilate for crucifixion.
The English translations of Antiquities, by Josephus, identifies ‘Ananus’ as a high-priest appointed to
lead the Sanhedrin a few years before Caiaphas (ref: Josephus, Antiquities, Book 18, Chapter 2). In
John 18:13, it states that Annas (Ananus) was the father-in-law of Joseph Caiaphas. So we know that Ananus and Annas were the same person, but different authors or translators spelled their names differently (in Antiquities versus John). So it seems highly plausible that the person known as Ananias (from Acts 9, Saul's pal) is also Ananus/Annas.
It is highly suspicious that the same high priest who was deeply involved in the murder
of Yahushua was also linked to Paul’s conversion to Christianity (Sherry Shriner’s edit: More than likely his co-conspirator to help Paul with his fake vision lies).
Secondly, Paul’s teachings are much different from those of Yahushua. Yahushua taught people how to live their lives in a manner that would please God. In addition, he said in no uncertain terms that those who practice Pharisaic teachings would not escape hell. He called them the children of the Devil. Paul WAS a Pharisee. In addition, Paul focused on the meaning of the resurrection in an obsessive manner that left most of Yahushua’s teaching forgotten—particularly the damnation of the Pharisees and their followers.
Thirdly, Paul never attempted to atone for his life as a Pharisee, or his association with one of the high priests involved in the murder of Yahushua. In fact, he boasted of his status as a Pharisee. It should be regarded as blasphemy that an active Pharisee would spread Christianity and may have been aided in his efforts by one of Yahushua’s murderers, high-priest Ananus.
Yahushua said of false prophets, "Ye shall know them by their fruits." I can see nothing but rotten fruit produced from Paul.

Ananias was of course later rewarded with the position of the ‘Bishop of Damascus’! It must have been in remeberance of him then…
Acts 5. 1-42: ‘But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. But Peter said Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him. And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in. And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
Well at least Ananias got his reward. It wouldn’t surprise me if there was a few ‘stab wounds’ and a cover-up either.
Acts 5. 29-33: ‘Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Yahushua, whom you slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him. When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them. Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law (Oh look it’s our friend Saul’s teacher again), had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space (Made a space between the Apostles and the mob); And said unto them, You men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do as touching these men. For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought. After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed. And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply you be found even to fight against God. And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Yahushua, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Yahushua Christ.
Gamaliel seems almost decent here for a moment doesn’t he? Well he did save their lives…but he never stopped them from A; getting a serious beating and B; when the mob told them never to mention Yahushua again, Gamaliel never says a thing! So Gamaliel was supportive of the Pharisee and Sadducee take on things when it came to Yahushua being ‘the messiah’ or not.
THE SEVENTY or is it the Seventy Two?
Another Wikipedia search reveals:
The 70 Disciples or 72 Disciples were early followers of Jesus, mentioned in the Gospel of Luke 10:1-24. According to Luke, the only gospel in which they appear, Jesus appointed them and sent them out in pairs to spread his message. In the Western Church it is usual to refer to them as Disciples while the Orthodox Church refers to them as Apostles. (Edit: Both are seriously wrong!)
This is the only mention of the group in the Bible. The number is ‘seventy’ in manuscripts in the Alexandrian (such as Codex Sinaiticus) and Caesarean text traditions but ‘seventy-two’ in most other Alexandrian and Western (Roman) texts. It may derive from the 70 nations of Genesis 11 or the many other 70 in the Bible, or the 72 translators of the Septuagint from the Letter of Aristeas. In editing the Vulgate, Jerome selected the reading of seventy-two.
The Gospel of Luke is alone among the first three gospels in containing two episodes in which Jesus (Edit: Supposedly) sends out his followers on a mission. The first occasion (Luke 9:1-6) is closely based on the mission in Mark 6:6b-13, which however recounts the sending out of the Twelve Apostles, rather than seventy, though with similar details. The parallels (also Matthew 9:35,10:1,7-11), suggest a common origin. (Edit: Lukes merely copying to give a similar appearance).
What has been said to the seventy (two) in Luke 10:4 is referred in passing to the Twelve in
Luke 22. 35: ‘He said to them, “When I sent you forth without a money bag or a sack or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No, nothing,” they replied.
It was also a mimickery of the ‘72 names of God’ which are used in Jewish mysticism for meditation purposes and derived from the Hebrew verbal utterance Moses spoke while the Red Sea parted (Kabbalah). (Edit: As if it was a ‘spell’ from Moses rather than a miracle from Yahuah!)
Tangent topic: To fill-in all of Saul’s other useful Roman controlled Philosopher/Writer contacts.
Letter of Aristeas: (Wikipedia)
The Letter of Aristeas is a Hellenistic Jewish forgery or pseudepigrapha. Josephus (Antiquities XII:ii passim) ascribes to a certain Aristeas a letter, written to a certain Philocrates, describing the Greek translation of the Jewish Law to seventy-two interpreters sent into Egypt from Jerusalem at the request of the librarian of Alexandria, resulting in the Septuagint translation.
The work is a glitteringly staid account with no plot relating how the king of Egypt, presumably Ptolemy II Philadephus, is urged by his librarian Demetrius of Phalarum to translate the pentateuch!
Philocrates (Fill-ock-ra-tees): Philo (20BC-50AD), known also as Philo of Alexandria and as Philo Judeaus, was a Hellenized Jewish philosopher born in Alexandria, Egypt. The few biographical details concerning him are found in his own works, especially in Legatio ad Gaium, ("embassy to Gaius" [Ceaser]) and in Josephus. The only event in his life that can be determined chronologically is his participation in the embassy which the Alexandrian Jews sent to the Emperor Caligula at Rome as the result of civil strife between the Alexandrian Jewish and Hellenized communities. This occurred in the year 40. A key moment. Philo included in his philosophy both Greek philosophy and Judaism, which he sought to fuse and harmonize by means of the art of allegory. An allegory (‘to speak in public’) is a figurative mode of representation conveying a meaning other than the literal (Recognize that anyone?). J.R.R. Tolkien's emphatic statement in the introduction to the American edition of L.O.T.Rings, ‘It is neither allegorical nor topical....I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so since I grew old and wary enough to detect its presence.’ (Now he was a clever guy! Being a Professor of languages)
Philo's works were enthusiastically received by the early Christians (Guess who?), some of whom saw in him a cryptic Christian. Philo's conception of the matter out of which the world was created is similar to that of Plato and the Stoics. According to him, God does not create the world-stuff, but finds it ready at hand. God cannot create it, as in its nature it resists all contact with the divine. (This guy has a strong influence in the early church deceptions).
Philo’s views on ‘Virtue’ are that good ‘moral endowment’ takes precedence of teaching and practise (Exactly what the world lives by now! “Just be a good person, that’s enough to get you through”. I have heard that excuse for not accepting Yahushua s a saviour a few times!). Virtue here is not the result of hard labor, but is the excellent fruit maturing of itself. The biblical character Noah represents the preliminary stage. Noah is praised, while no really good deeds are reported of him, whence it may be concluded that the Bible refers to his good disposition. But as Noah is praised only in comparison with his contemporaries, it follows that he is not yet a perfect man. (Edit: This is total garbage! Not only was Noah ‘Chemically-Pure’, he along with Methuselah, preached repentance for 120 yrs before the flood. Book of Jasher).
Demetrius, a Cynic philosopher, born at Sunium, who lived partly at Corinth and later in Rome during the reigns of Caligula, Nero and Vespasian. He was an intimate friend of ‘Thrasea Paetus’ and Seneca, and was held in the highest estimation for his consistent disregard of creature comfort in the pursuit of virtue.
Publius Clodius Thrasea Paetus, Roman senator and Stoic philosopher, lived during the reign of Nero. But his death had been decided upon. The simplicity of his life and his adherence to Stoic principles were looked upon as a reproach to the frivolity and debaucheries of Nero, who "at last yearned to put virtue itself to death in the persons of ‘Thrasea and Soranus’ (Tacitus). Cossutianus Capito, the son-in-law of Tigellinus, who had never forgiven Thrasea for securing his condemnation, and Eprius Marcellus undertook to conduct the prosecution. Various charges were brought against him, and the senate, awed by the presence of large bodies of troops, had no alternative but to condemn him to death. When the news was brought to Thrasea at his house, where he was entertaining a number of friends, he retired to his chamber, and had the veins of both his arms opened.
The narrative of Tacitus breaks off at the moment when Thrasea was about to address Demetrius, the Cynic philosopher, with whom he had previously on the fatal day held a conversation on the nature of the soul. (Yet more secrets. He knew he was going to die and so quickly had to spill the beans to Demetrius some vital information. My guess here is that it was some esoteric or Christian put-down speech. Tangent End).
There you go Mr Dan Brown! Make a movie about the Roman infiltration of Christianity! There is enough meat here for anyone.
Then we see the Leaven of Herod in action again!
The king responds favorably, including giving freedom to Jews who had been taken into captivity by his fathers and sending lavish gifts (which are described in great details) to the temple in Jerusalem along with his envoys. The high priest ‘Eleazar’ chooses exactly six men from each tribe, giving 72 in all; he gives a long sermon in praise of the Law. When the translators arrive in Alexandria, the king weeps of joy and for the next seven days puts philosophical questions to the translators, the wise answers to which are related in full. The 72 translators then complete their task in exactly 72 days. The Jews of Alexandria, on hearing the Law read in Greek, request copies and lay a curse on anyone who would change the translation (!!). The king then rewards the translators lavishly and they return home. Eleazar the Serpent-Seeder ‘High Priest’ usurper, heads the translation and even chooses his 72 puppets!
