The Truth About the Trinity

 

THUS SAYS THE LORD:

Letters From God and His Christ:

The Holy Spirit.
4/19/05, From God the Father.
A Letter Given to Timothy, For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear.

Where has the Lord God said in His Book, written by His spirit through men, "Give praise and worship unto the Holy Spirit"? The Spirit of God is called holy because I am holy, and all I do and purpose is holy and true. Therefore, give praise and worship to your God and His only Begotten. Only give thanks, not worship, for that part and aspect of My being given unto men, who are saved through grace. They receive My spirit because of their belief and proclamation that Jesus is Lord. Give heed and obey the words of the Spirit, for they are My Word given to men to live by and restore them to righteousness and life. Indeed Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord... one God, three aspects... two beings, the Father and the Son. For even the Son can put His Spirit upon you, and cause it to dwell within you, for as the Father is, so too is the Son. All the power of God moving upon the earth is called My Holy Spirit. It is My will made manifest. Therefore, it is not separate. Rather, it is a manifestation of My presence in men and My will made manifest in the world. How can one pray to that which he prays through? Shall one pray only to the hand of God? Pray directly to your God, in the Son's name, Christ Jesus, and through the Spirit will I hear you, and you, Me. For all My servants in Heaven and upon the earth move, speak, hear and know their God through His Spirit. It is My body in which all live and have life. Know the Spirit... accept My love. The Spirit is a gift given by the Father, from the Father, for your sake. Call it not a person... call it a blessing.

Blessed are those, who have the Spirit of God, for God dwells in them. Amen.


Regarding the Holy Spirit.
1/5/07, From God the Father and Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
A Letter Given to Timothy, For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear.

Question asked by Timothy: Lord, can You help me better understand John 16:13-15?

[God speaking.] Timothy, think not in earthly or human terms. Rather, know and understand that which I send is Spirit and Truth, the very same as Christ, who I also sent, being manifest in the flesh, the same as God. So that received is of God and of Christ...the Father and the Son are one and two. If then, you receive of My Spirit, the Spirit you received is of Christ. The Comforter is of Christ and is Christ and God. I, We, are omnipresent, being not bound by earthly laws, but of a spiritual freedom of which you can not yet understand. So then, if the Holy Spirit is that part of Christ, which is also in God, then the Lord has left that part of Himself that dwells in you, even to the end of the age.

[Jesus speaking.] This is why I said the Spirit shall not speak of Itself as one separate, but shall receive of Mine and show it to you. The Spirit and the Christ are completely one, and I am in the Father and the Father is in Me. And all the Father wills is made manifest by Me and through Me. The Spirit is given so you shall be with Me, and I with you, always, though you remain in your flesh.

When the day comes, when you are changed from perishable to imperishable, in that day no longer shall I dwell only in you, but you shall dwell in Me. And you shall truly know Me as I am, for you will be like Me in spirit. Then shall these sayings come to pass: "Death is swallowed up in victory", and, "I shall be their God, and they shall be My people, saith the Lord", and again, "For I shall dwell among them and in them". They shall dwell in Me. The old order of things shall pass away...

Behold, all is made new. Amen.

BIBLICAL PROOF:

The true New Testament teaching, as preserved in the Greek text, is that the Holy Spirit is not a person. Rather, it is the power of God which He puts within human beings to accomplish spiritual works. Luke clearly describes this function: "And the angel answered and said to her, 'The Holy Spirit shall come upon you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you' " (Luke 1:35). Just before He ascended into heaven, Jesus told the apostles " 'to await the promise of the Father, which,'He said, 'you have heard of Me. Now then, John, on the one hand, baptized with water; on the other hand, you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit after not many days... But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you...' " (Acts 1:4-8).

Here is the author's explanation of his translation of those passages in John 14, 15 and 16 which concern "the Spirit of the Truth" and "the Comforter":

"The Spirit of the Truth," in John 14:17 comes from the Greek to pneuma tees aleetheias, and is another designation for "the Holy Spirit." In the New Testament Greek, "the Holy Spirit" is always a neuter noun, which truly reflects the Scriptural teaching that the Holy Spirit is the power of God and not a person. The Greek nouns for "Spirit," "the Spirit," "Holy Spirit" and "The Holy Spirit" (KJV "Holy Ghost") are as follows: pneuma, to pneuma, pneuma hagion, to hagion pneuma, to pneuma to hagion, and the above referenced to pneuma tees aleetheias. These nouns, in their various forms, are always and only neuter in gender. Likewise, the pronouns for to pneuma to hagion are always and only neuter in gender. Therefore, it is absolutely incorrect to translate "the Spirit," "the Holy Spirit," or "the Spirit of the Truth" and its pronouns in the masculine gender. Since the Greek text reveals that "the Spirit of the Truth" is in the neuter gender, the author has correctly translated its pronouns as "it," "which" and "that one," as a neuter entity should properly be translated. To translate these neuter nouns and their pronouns in the masculine gender clearly violates the basic rules of translation. Pneuma and its various derivations are nowhere revealed in Scripture as masculine gendered nouns!

However, in John 14:16, 26, and John 15:26, we do find a masculine gendered noun used in reference to the Holy Spirit, as a descriptive noun, ho parakleetos, which is translated in the KJV as "the Comforter." Ho parakleetos defines a function of "the Holy Spirit," or "the Spirit of the Truth," as "a helper," and "the helper," or as "a comforter" and "the comforter." While this masculine gendered descriptive noun is used to describe a vital function of the Holy Spirit, it does not designate "the Holy Spirit," or "the Spirit of the Truth," as a person. In I John 2:1 the masculine descriptive noun Parakleetos is used to describe a function of Jesus Christ as "an Advocate" for Christians.

The demonstrative pronoun of ho parakleetos is ekeinos, which means "that" or "that one." The author has accordingly translated ekeinos in reference to ho parakleetos as "that one," whereas most translations incorrectly translate ekeinos as "He." The use of a descriptive masculine gendered noun and its pronouns does not make the Holy Spirit a "third co-equal member of a triune godhead," a "divine being" equal with the Father and the Son. For those who know the New Testament Greek, it is evident that the theology of men, which is contrary to the inspired Greek text, has been inserted into the English translations in an attempt to give Scriptural support to the false doctrine of the Trinity.

1/18/06, From God the Father and Our Lord Jesus Christ.
A Letter Given to Timothy, For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear.
For God's Glory, All Things That Are and Were Created, Were Created By His Knowledge, Being Designed in Perfect Intelligence.

[God speaking.] Timothy, lift up your pen, and write of My glory and Majesty... yea, sing and give praises to the Lord! The entire earth is filled with His glory and the craft of His hands, and His loved ones created by His fingertips.

Look at the universe, My children. It shall be your playground in the eighth day, wherein time has no meaning!... I shall cause it to cease. No more counting of days... years pass away, being likened to a light breeze caressing the face of the forever young. No looking back, or then forward, for your Redeemer... He is in your midst, walking where you walk, being at all times where you are... in the garden.

[Jesus speaking.] Proclaim the glory of the Lord! For all creation screams His name! Oh you men of intellect, stop your vain babblings, shed your arrogance. Your science has become a false religion. Step back from your knowledge and be then naked of your beliefs, and look with eyes wide open, hearing the voice of the Most High. Stand silent and naked before God, and watch and listen. He speaks to you... yea, He shouts to you from on high. You are consumed by His glory... yea, He assaults you on every side. Even from within, look, He is there. There is no escape from His glory. Without it, you are dead and all life ceases. The vastness of His being is not hidden... it shines forth from the infinitely small to the infinitely large. God has no end... HE IS!... The Creator, and I am your Carpenter. In you are all things written, in your very being, delicately etched there by the Right Hand of God, which I AM! Take your mind, and fill it with wonder and awe. Take your instruments, and seek and probe the earth and the heavens... there will you find Him. God is the origin of life! He alone is God, Creator of all things known and that which is yet unknown. And I, being the very same as the Father, am the Meaning of Life you seek. All things are made, live, and come to their fulfillment, in Me! I am the Meaning of Life! Jesus Christ am I, and you are in life because of Me... by Me were you made. You seek, and so you find that all discoveries lead to God, though you need not seek, nor discover, for the knowledge of Him is within you... His very Spirit which has given you breath. So seek and learn. Understanding is coming and is near. Only the shedding of your sin, and the death of your pride, shall lead you into the Truth you seek, for I am that Truth, being that same One who has made all things as the Father has desired. Come to Me, and have knowledge. My glory shall shine from the east even unto the west, having that same glory that you already behold in the heavens, the glory of the Great God and Creator, The God of Abraham!... The God of Isaac!... The God of Jacob!... The God of your fathers, even unto Adam, the father of all.

[God speaking.] So then, you stiff-necked and wicked generation, seek on by unbelief, and you shall discover the Truth which is God. Look deeper and farther than before... there you will find Me. Calculate and count all things you think you know, and there you will find Me. Search the Cosmos, study it, and you will begin to know Me. No matter where you point your lenses, there I am in your scope of understanding. Dissect life's structures... there I am, its Writer and Fashioner. Did you think I am hidden, the invisible God of your ancestors? Though you do not behold My face, I am shining all around you.

[Jesus speaking.] And lo, the day is come and has come already, and hence, is come in less than two weeks (14 years), all shall both see and behold My face, for I shall be before all, and all shall be before Me.

I am the glorified Holy One of Israel, coming to fulfill all that is written of Me.

Behold, I come on a white horse, and the saints do follow Me.

The heavens and the earth shall pass away at My coming
       and be created anew in My glory,
       which is the same glory of life which has no end...

I am the Beginning and the End, Alpha and Omega.

            &nb sp;                         &nb sp;     Amen.

In the Bible and in Christ's day, the Jewish bride was taken to the father's house where the two were in seclusion in the honeymoon quarters for seven days. Christ must have had that custom in mind when He promised to take His bride to His Father's house.

Gen. 29:28
And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week (7 days/bridal week): and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also.


THE "RAPTURE" or "GATHERING UP" (from: (click here--) TrumpetCallofGod.com - "Bible/Letter study")

Part 3: the gathering up referenced in The Holy Bible.

Throughout the Bible, we see examples of how God has protected His people from His wrath.

"Verily, verily I say unto you, he that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation (judgment), but has passed from death into life." (Jesus speaking) - John 5:24 KJV

So then, if judgment falls on the whole world, we must leave this world, so we do not "come into" judgment. We have passed from judgment into forgiveness in the same way we have passed from death into life. We will be taken to the only place where life is and death is not... Heaven.



For any person to come to Jesus, we must be called, first, by the Father.

"No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him; and I will raise him up at* the last day. It is written in the prophets, 'And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto Me. (John 6:44-45 KJV)

And He said, "Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto Me, except it were given unto him of My Father." (John 6:65 KJV)

* NOTE: "At" refers to the beginning of the last day or time period. Jesus did not say "during" or "at the end of", etc.

Psalm 12:5-7 KJV
(5) For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy; now will I arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. (6) The words of the Lord are pure, as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. (7) Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever.

To better understand this verse:
(5) When you see persecution and people have lost all hope, then will the Lord arise; and the Lord says He will set the oppressed in safety from the Antichrist and all those who persecute His saints. (6) The Lord's words are absolutely true, so to bring His people who have denied the truth into the truth, they too shall be purified seven times (or seven years) in a furnace of earth (judgments on earth). (7) The Lord will preserve them (the oppressed, believers) from this generation (the oppressors, "those that puffeth" and the people that must go through the furnace.)

Psalm 27:5-6, 10 KJV
(5) For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion, in the secret of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me up upon a rock. (6) And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me. Therefore, I will offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord. (10) When my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.

To better understand this verse:
During the time of troubles, which is the present day (Matthew 24:4-14), God shall hide us in His pavilion or tabernacle, or dwelling place (Heaven); He shall take us up by way of Jesus (the Rock). (6) And when we are surrounded on every side by enemies of God and by all kinds of troubles, then will we be lifted up above all these things. Therefore, we will be joyful and sing praises to the Lord, in His tabernacle or dwelling place (Heaven). (Refer to Revelation 7:9-17)
(10) When your closest relatives forsake or leave you because of your faith, then the Lord will take us up. (Refer to Matthew 10:35-36)

Matthew 13:30 KJV
Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into My barn. (Jesus speaking)

Matthew 24:40-41 KJV
(40) Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (41) Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Luke 21:28, 36 KJV
(28) And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads, for your redemption draws nigh...(36) Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man (Jesus speaking).

NOTE: (Luke 21:36)
The word "escape" is derived from the Hebrew words "geruwth" from "guwr" which means "to turn aside from the road for a lodging or any other purpose (i.e. sojourn as a guest); also to "gather".
The word "escape" is derived from the Greek words "ek or ex" which means "out". Also derived from the Greek word "pheugo" which means "to vanish, escape, flee away". [Source: Strong's Exhaustive Concordance]

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 KJV
(51) Behold, I shew you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed. (52) In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump, for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (53) For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality (Paul speaking).

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV
(16) For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first. (17) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (Paul speaking)

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 KJV
(9) For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation from our Lord Jesus Christ, (10) who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him. (Paul speaking)

NOTE: Whenever Paul is speaking, he is speaking to the group of believers in the towns of Corinth, Thessalonica, etc.

2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 KJV
(6) And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. (7) For the mystery of iniquity doth already work, only he who not letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. (8) And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming (Paul speaking).

To better understand this verse:
(6) And now you know the body of Christ's believers holds back the Antichrist, so he may be revealed at the appointed time (during the seven-year period of tribulation allowed by God). (7) For the hidden spirit of antichrist is already at work in the world; but Jesus' spirit, who holds back the Antichrist, will hold him back until God commands Jesus to let and gather up to Heaven all those who believe and love Him. (8) Then shall the Antichrist show himself during the period of tribulation. At the end of the judgment/tribulation period, Jesus will reveal Himself and will destroy the Antichrist's army with the words of His mouth and the brightness of His coming, then throwing him and his prophet alive into the lake of fire (Rev. 19:20-21).

Genesis 19:22, 29 KJV
(22) Haste thee, escape thither (there); for I cannot do anything till thou become thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zo-ar (Humble or Small). (29) And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain (Sodom and Gomorrah), that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.

NOTE: God would not or could not do anything to Sodom and Gomorrah until Lot had escaped completely out of those cities. He did not hide him in the city and put a protective covering over Lot. He completely took him "out of" Sodom. When God will pour out His wrath during the 7-year period of judgment and tribulation, He will pour it out on the whole world. There will be nowhere to "escape" to. Even to be protected during the judgments, would still be to experience them, because you would be observing His wrath on everyone around you. The only way to truly "escape" the judgments would be to be completely taken "out of" the judgments. To be completely taken "out of" the judgments, a person would have to, and will, leave this world.

Zephaniah 2:3 KJV
Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought His judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness. It may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.

2 Peter 2:9 KJV
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished.

Psalm 90:10, 12-13 KJV
(10) The days of our years are threescore years and ten. And if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. (12) So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. (13) Return, O Lord, how long? And let it repent thee concerning thy servants.

NOTE: In these verses, the Lord is telling us three things:
1. A generation is seventy years long (vs. 10).
2. We are able to calculate the approximate time "or season" of the Lord's return a(vs.12). 3. The generation born during the time of Israel's statehood (1948 and after) will see the coming of the Lord, and will not reach eighty because their years will "soon be cut off, and they will fly away".

To better understand how "a generation" and Israel's statehood relates to the Rapture and Second Coming of Christ, please refer to the Seventy Weeks of Daniel Supplement, called "Evidence Supporting 2011-2018 as the Last Week" on pages 125 thru 129.

Part 4: POINTS TO REMEMBER

• Belief in the Rapture Is Not Necessary In Order to Be Saved
We are saved by believing that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the dead the third day, not because of our belief in the "gathering up". Those who belong to Christ will be taken up at the "gathering up" whether we believe in it or not. Many Christians have erred on various points in the Bible, including the "rapture" or "gathering up". Though they err, Jesus knows their hearts, and that will be the determining factor of their salvation.

• The Word "Rapture"
The Rapture is a word to which some critics object because they say it isn't in the Bible. In fact, it is in the Latin translation of 1 Thessalonians 4:17. The Latin rapturos means "an ecstatic catching away" as does our English word. (Source: When Will Jesus Come? - Dave Hunt)

• Two Distinct Events - The Rapture and the Second Coming
The "Rapture" or "Gathering Up" and Christ's second coming are two distinct events. Christ must first of all come for His saints to gather them up to heaven, or He could never come with His saints from Heaven to rescue Israel at Armageddon. The "Rapture" will come when least expected; the Second Coming takes place only after all the judgments have been fulfilled. By then everyone should know that Christ is about to return in glory and power. That these are two distinct events is also clear from Christ's own words, "I will come again and receive you unto Myself that where I am there ye may be also." Christ is catching up His bride to present her to His Father. The Second Coming has an entirely different purpose: to rescue Israel in the midst of Armageddon and to destroy the Antichrist, his false prophet and his evil world empire.
The days of Noah and Lot are similar to today as far as sin and wickedness are concerned, but then all of history is filled with sin and wickedness. The main focus in these verses is: Life was going on as normal, then God's judgment came suddenly upon those under His wrath, or today they would be the "non-believers" who still revel in their sin and are completely married to the world. Likewise today, people go on with their daily lives, ignoring God and some even rebelling against Him, so then the Lord's Day will indeed come as a thief. In our day, the first act of God will be the "gathering up" of His people, not a judgment. These verses when compared with the verses in Revelation would seem to indicate that Jesus contradicted Himself in regards to His second coming. (i.e. "as a thief...day and hour unknown" eludes to an unexpected coming where no one sees Him, compared with verses that say "every eye shall see Him", "He shines from the east unto the west", "with full power and great glory". The Book of Revelation provides markers or events that will lead right up to the time of His glorious coming. How then can His coming be unknown and unseen, and known and seen by everyone...undeniable, if they are at the same time? Therefore, His second coming is two events: The first as a "thief", the "gathering up", mercy and forgiveness; the second as a "glorious appearing", wrath and judgment.

• The Bride Shall Be Taken to the Father's House For One Week
In Christ's day, the Jewish bride was taken to the father's house where the two were in seclusion in the honeymoon quarters for seven days. Christ must have had that custom in mind when He promised to take His bride to His Father's house. (Source: When Will Jesus Come? - Dave Hunt)

• The Rapture Would Create the Perfect Environment for World Unification and the Ushering into Power of the Antichrist
In order for the Antichrist to come into power under a "one-world" government, all religions, races, etc. must be reconciled. In order for this reconciliation to happen, something global and cataclysmic must occur. The world-wide disappearance of millions of people will be the catalyst that allows the Antichrist to begin his short "reign" of power. Everyone will be confused and shaken, and will seek someone to give them the answers regarding the disappearance of their loved ones. The Antichrist will come in peace and give them the "hope" they are looking for. [Please note: The Antichrist is only allowed, by God, to have this short time of power. Also, the "hope" the Antichrist will give people is a false hope, completely built on blasphemy and lies. Unfortunately, many people will not see his deception. In this way, the Antichrist will be able to deceive many and create his one-world empire.]


Judgement Into Life

[Jesus speaking.] I am come and am yet come and have come already. I am amongst you in spirit, bestowing Truth, you of this world will not hear Me.
You who have heard Me will hear Me again. The Day is coming, the day is already here, when the dead shall hear My voice and come forth and all you who are alive and remain, you shall also hear and come out, all together unified as one body, securely reunited in My body, in life and joy forever and ever. Amen.
You shall be spared, for you had placed your full faith in the hands of My Father, and He has given you to Me. You shall share in My joy, which is the Father's joy He shares with you because of Me. You came from God by Me, and by Me shall you return to the Father and live in His house where I had prepared a place for you from the beginning. You will be taken out of this world which has all together become liken to that Babylon I will destroy in the hour of My God's judgment. Many more will I take out after the elect have been lifted up, they will be martyrs. And yet a remnant will remain who shall be hidden in the earth for a time, times and the dividing of times, to these is it reserved to be taken through.
Everyone, who loves Me and will come to love Me, will come because of Me, for your places in eternity have been prepared and forever shall you be with Me. Your places have always been and were prepared by My death and resurrection. For no one may enter into My Father's joy except by Me.
I am Life without End. By My death you have accepted, will you be as I am. My body was broken for you so you would not suffer judgment for your sin. My body is without sin in the same way you have become My body without sin.

You have passed from judgment into life!
Come and sing praises to the Lord in His tabernacle!
Sing praises and give worship to the Holy One, who keeps all the promises
and brings them to pass through Me. Amen and amen.

Therefore, as I have forgiven you in the blood of My most beloved Son, also must you forgive those who have sinned against you.

(God speaking.) ~
Though I hold these things against you, and should punish you as any good Father who loves His child should, instead have I given My own Son to take the full burden of your sin, so you might be cleansed and presented completely washed of all you have done. So again I say to you Beloved, My most precious one who has strayed far from Me, yet still does seek Me, Repent! Accept the love of the Son, Jesus the Christ, into your heart, and know beyond a shadow of turning, your sin I will remember no more

[From Volume 1, Letters from God and His Christ, Partake of the Waters of Life.]
(God speaking.) ~ This is why I have sent My Son to die and take the full burden of your sin, so we can be together forevermore. So open your heart to Me, daughter, and repent of all that you have done. I will separate your sin from you, as far as the east is from the west, and remember your iniquities no more, for Christ Jesus has cleansed you. Open your heart to Him, accept Him, and clothes of white will you now wear when He presents you to Me, fully washed and a new creation. That place inside you, which fills you with emptiness and longing and for what, you do not know, that place will I fill up to overflowing with the water of life and joy, for the water of life is of the Son, Jesus, the Christ.

By the Word are you saved...
He who was smitten of God gave of Himself to the smiters so all nations under God might be saved through Him, which is the foundation and fulfillment of all prophecy... the end of which is the Kingdom, which is He, and by Him shall you enter, entering into that which is His joy forever and ever...
This is My Son in whom I am well pleased... listen to Him, for as the stars in the heavens are beyond the numbering of men, so then is He called Jesus, who being the Only Begotten of the Father, is the fulfillment of the Word of God and the prophets throughout all generations, whose fulfillment of which is also beyond the reason and comprehension of men's calculations fulfilled in a single man...

St. Valentine, Cupid and Jesus Christ

Its customs appear harmless, but is Valentine's Day really a Christian holiday? What are its origins? Could this seemingly innocent celebration promote unbiblical teachings?

by Gary Petty

Every year in mid-February millions of people express romantic desire for each other by exchanging heart-shaped boxes of chocolate, flowers and "valentines." Children express hidden infatuations by sending cards as "secret admirers." Retailers stock shelves with merchandise covered in stylized hearts and Cupids preparing for the popular observance of St. Valentine's Day, Feb. 14.

Where and how did these curious customs originate?

Valentine's Day acquired its name from a Catholic saint, although exactly who he was is a matter of debate. The two most famous Valentines were a Roman priest and a bishop, both of whom suffered martyrdom in the last half of the third century.

Celebrations: The Complete Book of American Holidays records the story this way: "Everyone knows that St. Valentine's Day is that day of the year when friends and lovers express affection for one another, through cards, candy and flowers, whatever means the imagination can find. But no one is quite certain who this St. Valentine was—or, more appropriately, who these Valentines were. The early lists of church martyrs reveal at least three Valentines, and one source boosted this number to an unwieldy eight, each of whom had his feast day on February 14.

"The various Valentines eventually evolved into one. Lover's quarrels come under his jurisdiction and, naturally, he is the patron saint of engaged couples and of anyone wishing to marry" (Robert J. Myers and the editors of Hallmark Cards, 1972, pp. 48-49).

During the Middle Ages, Valentine's Day grew increasingly popular in Europe. Feb. 14 was significant not only for its religious meaning but because it was widely believed that birds begin to mate on this date. Geoffrey Chaucer (c. 1340-1400) mentions the mating of birds on Valentine's Day in his poem "Parliament of Foules."

"English literature, following Chaucer, contains frequent references to February 14 as sacred to lovers. Shakespeare, Drayton, and !@#$ are among those who mention it in this connection, and the diarist Samuel Pepys several times discusses the day and its related customs. The Paston Letters, covering the period from 1422 to 1509, contain a letter by Dame Elizabeth Brews to John Paston, with whom she hoped to arrange a match for her daughter, which runs this way:

" 'And cousin mine, upon Monday is St. Valentine's day and every bird chooseth himself a mate ...' " (Jane M. Hatch, The American Book of Days, 1978, p. 178).

For centuries St. Valentine's Day flourished as 24 hours of romantic superstition. A common belief was that a girl would marry the first bachelor she saw or conjure her future mate's image by visiting a graveyard on St. Valentine's Eve.

The custom of sending valentine cards grew popular in the 1700s. In the early 1800s commercial valentines appeared, and soon there was no end to how entrepreneurs could make money from the holiday. Valentine's Day became so popular in the United States that a 1863 periodical claimed it was second in celebration only to Christmas.

Valentine's Day is as popular as ever with children and couples. It is one of the biggest moneymaking days for florists, candy makers and gift shops.

Pre-Christian origins


But do the roots of Valentine's Day run deeper and further back into history?

The origins of Valentine's Day predate Christianity. "The most plausible theory for St. Valentine's Day traces its customs back to the Roman Lupercalia, a feast celebrated in February in honor of the pastoral god Lupercus, a Roman version of the Greek god Pan. The festival was an important one for the Romans, occurring when it did, naturally had some aspects of a rebirth rite to it" (Myers, pp. 50-51).

The original festival, celebrated on Feb. 15, was founded in the ancient legend of the infants Romulus and Remus. The two brothers were said to have been abandoned but discovered and nursed by a wolf, or lupus in Latin. The two boys are credited as the founders of Rome.

Lupercalia was celebrated in honor of pastoral deities, and ceremonies included the sacrifice of goats and a dog. Young men dressed in the sacrificial animal skins would run from a cave, said to be where Romulus and Remus were cared for by the wolf, brandishing strips of goat skins. Any women struck by these thongs were assured fertility. "These thongs were called Februa, the festival Februatio, and the day Dies Februetus, hence arose the name of the month February, the last of the old Roman year" (Encyclopaedia Britannica, Vol. XV, ninth edition, 1907, "Lupercalia").

Over the years many customs were added to the celebration. One was for the names of girls to be placed in a box to be drawn by boys. Each resulting match was then considered a pair for the coming year.

Lupercalia and Christianity

As Christianity spread throughout the Roman Empire, it was common for pagan converts to retain their earlier religious customs and practices. Edward Gibbons, in his classic work The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, states: "After the conversion of the Imperial city, the Christians still continued, in the month of February, the annual celebration of the Lupercalia; to which they ascribed a secret and mysterious influence of the genial powers of the animal and vegetable world" (Vol. II, The Modern Library, p. 327).

Pope Gelasius is said to have eradicated Lupercalia from Christian observance in the last decade of the fifth century. But, in reality, the mingling of paganism and Christianity had become inseparable in much of the Western world. Saturnalia and Mithraism were incorporated into the church through claiming a December birth date for Jesus Christ. Various spring fertility rites merged to form the basis of Easter celebrations. Lupercalia evolved into the observance of St. Valentine's Day.

Celebrations: The Complete Book of American Holidays comments: "Everywhere that Christians came into power they immediately adapted the holidays and customs of the people to their own creed. Now it was a simple matter to call the day that this drawing took place St. Valentine's Day ... To Christianize the heathen practice of picking lots for sweethearts, all that was needed was to replace the names of the girls with names of saints and to have the young people emulate the particular virtues of whatever saint they drew. Incidentally, this custom is not dead today and is still observed in some religious orders.

"It was always more fun, of course, to pick a girl's rather than a saint's name. Consequently, by at least the fourteenth century the custom had reverted to its original form" (pp. 50-51).

Roman gods and Christian saints

Why would people observe a day that honors pagan gods by associating it with Christian saints?

The ancient Romans worshiped gods and goddesses involved with every aspect of life. Jupiter, the chief of the gods, was the deity of rain and storms, while his wife, Juno, was the goddess of womanhood. Minerva was the goddess of handicrafts and wisdom; Venus, of sexual love and birth; Vesta, of the hearth and sacred fires; Ceres, of farming and harvests.

The Greeks considered Mercury to be the messenger of the gods, but the Romans worshiped him as the god of trade, and businessmen celebrated his feast day to increase profits. Others included Mars, god of war; Castor and Pollux, gods of sea travelers; Cronos, the guardian of time; and Cupid, god of love, whose magic arrows encouraged humans and immortals to fall in love. The list goes on and on.

Romans would generically call on "the gods," but each deity had its own cult, and worshipers would pray and conduct religious ceremonies to a specific god or goddess to ask for help. Christianity, with its emphasis on one God, was viewed by many Romans as a strange superstition or even a kind of atheism that denied the existence of the gods.

Members of the early Christian Church considered themselves "saints," meaning holy or separated to God. Paul greets the church at Philippi as "all the saints in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 1:1). However, it wasn't long before "saints," in the Roman tradition, began to take on the meaning of a special class of martyrs or performers of heroic virtue.

In the second and third centuries it became common for congregations to honor the death of a martyr by celebrating the anniversary of his or her demise. The local cult would offer prayers to the dead for intercession with God. A "saint" could eventually receive universal recognition by declaration of the bishop of Rome.

The Catholic Encyclopedia explains: "As was taught by St. Augustine ... Catholics, while giving to God alone adoration strictly so-called, honor the saints because of the Divine supernatural gifts which have earned them eternal life, and through which they reign with God in the heavenly fatherland as His chosen friends and faithful servants.

"In other words, Catholics honor God in His saints as the loving distributor of supernatural gifts. The worship of latria ... or strict adoration is given to God alone; the worship, or dulia ... or honor and humble reverence, is paid the saints; the worship of hyperdulia ... on account of her greater excellence, [is directed] to the Blessed Virgin Mary" (Vol. II, "Saints," 1907, Online Edition, 1999, Kevin Knight).

The evolution from the early Church's recognition of all members being saints to the veneration and worship of the dead is rooted in the early mixture of paganism with Christianity. The populace throughout the Roman Empire was accustomed not only to the worship of the Greek and Roman pantheon, but to cultic worship of local deities. It was an easy step for Christian congregations rooted in paganism to replace the customs of local cults with the worship of dead martyrs.

Over the centuries the Catholic Church canonized saints for many events, problems, illnesses and occupations, each celebrated with his or her own feast day. St. Stephen is the patron saint of stonemasons; doctors can pray to St. Luke, fishermen to St. Andrew, and carpenters to St. Joseph. Patron saints are there for farmers, hunters, shoemakers and even comedians. The primary saint in Catholic theology is Mary, the mother of Jesus.

The danger in a harmless holiday


What harm can there be in the celebration of lovers in the name of St. Valentine? Besides, what does it matter that some of the day's customs hark back to pagan rites?

For one thing, nowhere does the Bible approve of praying to dead (or living) saints. In fact, Jesus declared that no one except Himself has ascended into heaven (John 3:13). The saints wait in their graves for the resurrection to occur at Jesus' return. Venerating dead saints propagates an ancient heathen custom that has no basis in reality.

The apostle Paul wrote to the Thessalonians about the resurrection: "But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first" (1 Thessalonians 4:13-16).

One of the roles Jesus Christ fulfills as our resurrected High Priest is Intercessor: one who pleads on behalf of another. The Bible declares: "Therefore He [Jesus] is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them" (Hebrews 7:25).

The Bible encourages Christians to pray for each other, but heavenly intercession is reserved for Jesus Christ. At Jesus' death the veil in the temple, a heavy curtain that separated the "holy of holies," representing God's throne, from the rest of the temple, was supernaturally torn from top to bottom. This action demonstrated that a new access to God was made available by the sacrifice of Jesus the Messiah. A Christian's relationship to God is with a personal and intimate Father. The supposed need for another heavenly intercessor denigrates this role of Christ.

Does it matter to God?


God warned ancient Israel, the people He chose to represent true religion, not to mix pagan customs with worshiping Him as the true God. "When the Lord your God cuts off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, and you displace them and dwell in their land, take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed from before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, 'How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise.' You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way; for every abomination to the Lord which He hates they have done to their gods ... Whatever I command you, be careful to observe it; you shall not add to it nor take away from it" (Deuteronomy 12:29-32).

Paul compares mixing paganism with Christianity to worshiping demons: "What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offered to idols is anything? Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons" (1 Corinthians 10:19-21).

Holidays such as St. Valentine's Day metamorphose into icons of Western culture, parodying religion. Most people don't care that its origins lie in the Roman Lupercalia and are rooted in tenets that have nothing to do with the Bible. It's this apathy about how to worship God, and the corresponding moral decay, that is the result of mixing Christianity with paganism.

Jesus said His followers would "worship the Father in spirit and truth" (John 4:23). Observance of this holiday is just one of many traditions that must be questioned if Christianity is to return to its foundation laid by Jesus Christ. GN

Thus Says the LORD Against the "Dooms-Day Prophets" Who Say Dec 21, 2012 is End of World

(*This is in response to Jack Van Impe's new video offer and the History Channel's special.)

Thus Says the Lord God:
Beware... for lo, the time has come, the time is here also, when the evil one shall attempt the same... believe not these prophets. Listen not to their subtle and dark speeches. Neither believe your eyes, though you behold their signs and wonders. Trickery, dark sentences, the power of the pit...deceptions clothed in falsehoods, with the appearance of light and good.
Have understanding and seek wisdom. Know who I have sent and am sending... the prophets, My witnesses, 144,000, who cease not day and night from glorifying My name... gifts and wonders without price, all in the name of the One True God and Him called Christ and Jesus, Yeshua the Messiah and Risen One. Unless, My people, His name be called out in Truth, by no means shall one tittle come to pass or be accounted as true. Turn your backs, and run from all who proclaim not the Son of God Most High. Run, I say, and do not look back... be wary and vigilant. ~ God [Excerpt from: Letters From God and His Christ, Volume 7 - "The Prophets Are Sent Out, True and False... The High-minded Abased and Uplifted... The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord Has Come... Who Shall Stand?!"]
