The meaning of the teachings of Christ and the cross (cross-s.gif (869 bytes))

<1>Sacrifice (not being self-centered) is the essence of the teaching of Christ.  Only by sacrifice can the Kingdom Of Heaven within and without be attained.  With sacrifice, everything is possible.  Without sacrifice, nothing is possible.  <2>The cross (cross-s.gif (869 bytes)) therefore, is the symbol of crucifixion of the false ego for a higher ideal in the direction of the Will of God.  That is the way for individual perfection, and individual perfection is the essence of Christ's teachings.

<3>He also came to finish the promise given to Israel about the kingly and spiritual dominance of his seed, which was passed to Judah.  <4>In addition, he came to tell the Jews that this right and other rights had been taken away from them, "Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof." (Matthew 21:43).  So with this Christ fulfilled the promise which was given to the Children of Judah of the ownership of the "scepter."

     

The promises to Israel are fulfilled

<5>With the coming of Christ and the flourishing of America and England, all the promises which were given to Israel are fulfilled.  <6>With Christ ("Shiloh"), the promise of the scepter through Judah is fulfilled.  <7>Through the United Kingdom, the promise of a nation was given to the Children of Israel, and through America, the promise of a company of nations was ended.  <8>Also all the lost tribes of Israel were gathered under Christianity together, "...shall the gathering of the people be." (Gen. 49:10)

<9>However, there are more prophecies which were fulfilled by God, so the human might eventually believe in Him and walk in His Ways.
