Ed-note (Sabba) – Never forgive, never forget. Today, and more than ever, let us all remember Jesus, the Son of Man, the Son of Mary, the Messiah, the Prince of Peace with one of the most breathtaking choir you will ever hear. “Miserere” by Gregorio Allegri (1582-1652).
Enjoy and may all readers of TUT have a blessed Easter.

That was beautiful Sabba. Thank you for sharing with us today. And may God’s blessings and mercy be upon you and us all. Allah yusallmak Sabba.
Thanks for the Blessing and may your soul have peace but life is not like that . I cant sit and reflect on nice things when the World has gone to hell and the people causing it use “their” God as a means of enforcing it. I have seen abject poverty –I lived it and I wouldnt wish it on anyone . We are returning to Georgian values of =people are slaves to do their masters bidding I am totally against that . I cannot stand ideally by and watch the 99% be used -abused and then killed when they want rid of them . This new neo-con cold-hearted society has nothing in common with Easter other than someone was killed at that time and recent manuscripts recovered in Turkey written by Paul say Jesus was a good man but not the Son of God he maybe acted like he was but wasnt crucified . I hate injustice and have burning ambition inside me to fight to the death to right the wrongs of this World and the one enemy I perceive is the Jew and Israel . They are for war and destruction of the masses of the World Hell is here and its not hard to see who is to blame so be happy if you can but I cannot while Evil exists.
Say what you will about Christianity, but one fact remains… it has inspired the greatest art, architecture and especially music the world has ever known. Anything written by Johann Sebastian Bach is testament to this. Truly divine inspiration.
@Todd: I am really happy you liked it. You know, each time I listen to it, it makes my blood freeze, it gives me the goosebumps. There is so much emotion in it that it is as if we can really feel our souls being lifted up, our souls being transpierced by the Spirit of God and begging to surrender to her Creator…. Allah y jazik bi khayr.
Oh Duncan… so much pessimism… Life is worth fighting for and that’s why we are still standing. And thank God, there still are elements of the purest Beauty in this world, such as this piece of music… Not to close our eyes and forget but close our eyes, refocus, recharge our batteries, remember why we are fighting, what and who we are fighting for. But do most people in this ‘movement’ know who and what they are fighting for?
I know I would get completely discouraged, disheartened if all, absolutely all was simply doom and gloom.
We are going to win this battle against Evil. I guarantee you that we will.
I do not think that those who are in their 30s and over will live to see it but those who are kids now, will. History seems to go faster and faster, events are unfolding at such pace that the final battle of the most epic encounter between Truth and Falsehood, the Messiah and the anti-Christ will be sooner that many think.
And so we are paving the way for the next 2 generations which are coming and who will finish the job started 2000 years ago and to which we are bringing our humble contribution.
Mankind has never experienced such awakening as right now. We owe this to the Palestinians who have bought us time with their BLOOD, as much time as we needed, so that we can awaken.
And we are…
On this blessed day, allow me to quote the Quran… a powerful message of Hope from God to all who (sincerely) love Jesus:
“Behold! God said: O Jesus! I will take your soul and raise thee to Myself And clear thee (of the falsehoods) Of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject Faith to the day of Resurrection….” (3:55)
.
Thank you for sharing such wonderful music!
I am thankful God forgives and forgets my past sins through the sacrifice of Christ Jesus, as I strive to sin no more through commission or omission, and be perfect as the Father is.
you know, NORMALLY I LOVE your blog more than most i visit and read, but….
JESUS WAS and IS the CHRIST / Messiah, and ON THAT CROSS, he DID DIE for ALL of our sins. The Jews DID MURDER HIM, YES, and the Romans assisted in that. But the LIFE **AND** DEATH of JESUS the Messiah fulfilled (at least!) over 48 PROPHECIES in the Old Testament.
NO MUSLIM can say that because they hold their Quran over that of the Bible, which they think is corrupt.
Thanks for the lovely music but you really need to REPENT of this notion about how Jesus did not die for our sins, because YOU ARE SAYING that THE JEWS DID MURDER him. so you basically ARE saying that he DID DIE.
it was NOT Judas in his place.
Sabba I have spent my whole life fighting against this evil ,depressed yes but no I never give in I have absolute determination . The problem of taking a religious philosophical approach is that the Jews walk all over it . They laugh at our weakness not for them of just thinking about religion they act forcefully to achieve their evil aims of World Domination so they can work us to death for little pay . You cannot argue a point to them they ignore it the same with Marxists its a waste of time . I live in a down to earth reality that sees life as it really is not through rose tinted glasses you live by feeling hurt applied to you and you learn which is why we are here . You start at school and progress to be a better person through personal suffering so that your soul raises to a higher level till after many re-incarnations you can be one with a Universal Being be it God or any other . Turning the other cheek to Nutteryahu will get you punched on it thats reality.As above so below.
@Ryan: I am not going to engage in a theological debate here with you. I do respect your views and I would very much appreciate if you could respect mine. I do not ask of you to REPENT on anything and would very much appreciate if you could refrain from asking me to repent for my views.
Just so that you know, it is NOT the Islamic view that Judas got crucified in his place. There is not one single word, one single letter in the Quran to suggest that.
This is the view of some muslims who tried to interpret some verses of the Quran but these are only their own views which they can not substantiate with any valid argument.
The Bible as we have it in the western world is indeed corrupt and it is not the muslims saying that: all christians theologians, all exegesis are saying this. But this does not invalidate Jesus, the Messiah, nor his mission nor his mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Have you ever looked at the Peshitta Bible?
The ‘Jesus’ in the bible that is said to be the son of YHWY (there are many Jesuses in the bible),
There was the Kingly Messiah (said to be that of David), and the Priestly Messiah (said to be that of the line of Levi). The Kingly line known as Mispat. The Priestly line known as Tsedeq. Both work together to produce the Kingdom of God (Shalom) in Israel. As above. so below; priestly / heavenly & kingly / earthly.
Most all Jews of that period, in that region, were against Roman occupation. Jesus believed as Moses did, that the land was given to then by their God YHWH. He wanted the Romans out and those specific Jews that were cozying up to Rome; he wanted out of power. He viewed it as corruption and Moses and David would not appreciate that. He called them moneychangers because there was A LOT of gold passing thru. Rome and these Jews of the temple were managing all that gold due to the trade routes.
Jesus and his brother “James” (Jacob / Yacov) were trying to get the manpower and money to create a rebellion. Barabbas is James, the brother of Jesus. After John the Baptist was killed, Jesus then set about to be both pillars; the Kingly and the Earthly. Word of the rebellion spread and James (Barabbas) was apprehended and arrested. Later they got Jesus.
I don’t believe that there was a mass of Jews by the thousands that called for the execution of Jesus. More likely there was somewhat of a small crowd mainly represented by the Qumran community that mainly lived ‘in the wilderness’ out of the city. Of course those Jews that settled in with Rome would have wanted to see James and Jesus both executed because their livelihood was at stake.
Rome later sacked them. But the Jews got their revenge later (don’t they always?) when they infiltrated and took over Rome. They conquered Greece before Rome, and before Greece they had conquered Egypt / Kemet.
CICERO (Marcus Tullius Cicero). First century B.C. Roman statesman, writer.
“Softly! Softly! I want none but the judges to hear me. The Jews have already gotten me into a fine mess, as they have many other gentleman. I have no desire to furnish further grist for their mills.” (Oration in Defense of Flaccus)
Cicero was serving as defense counsel at the trial of Flaccus, a Roman official who interfered with Jewish gold shipments to their international headquarters (then, as now) in Jerusalem. Cicero himself certainly was not a nobody, and for one of this stature to have to “speak softly” shows that he was in the presence of a dangerously powerful sphere of influence. and on another occasion Cicero wrote: “The Jews belong to a dark and repulsive force. One knows how numerous this clique is, how they stick together and what power they exercise through their unions. They are a nation of rascals and deceivers.”
SENECA (Lucius Annaeus Seneca). First century Roman philosopher. “The customs of that most criminal nation have gained such strength that they have now been received in all lands. The conquered have given laws to the conquerors.” (De Superstitione)
DIO CASSIUS. Second century Roman historian. Describing the savage Jewish uprising against the Roman empire that has been acknowledged as the turning point downward in the course of that great state-form: “The Jews were destroying both Greeks and Romans. They ate the flesh of their victims, made belts for themselves out of their entrails, and daubed themselves with their blood… In all, 220,000 men perished in Cyrene and 240,000 in Cyprus, and for this reason no Jew may set foot in Cyprus today.” (Roman History)
DIODORUS SICULUS. First century Greek historian.Observed that Jews treated other people as enemies and inferiors. “Usury” is the practice of lending money at excessive interest rates. This has for centuries caused great misery and poverty for Gentiles. It has brought strong condemnation of the Jews!
You have to forgive; but you never forget. No “Jew” can truly be a “Jew” and fully accept Christ. Same goes for “Messianic Jews”–there is no such thing. You can’t keep your ” Judaism” and also have Jesus. One is death, the Other Life. New wine must go into new wineskins.
Christianity is the religion of the Spanish inquisition and millions of witch burnings and has dumbed the people down to not know what Jews are doing. If Jesus was dumb enough to get caught by Jews then he sure as heck is not going to save you. Jesus was a Jew and did not condemn the rapist and murder of little girls, Moses. See Numbers Chapter 31.
Christians do not know the date of Easter but use Astronomical sequences. Same for Christmas using the Winter Solstice of the Pagans. It makes you a censor afraid of posting this.
The Concept that God wants blood is at the bottom of the Atonement and rests upon the most barbaric savagery.
It makes you a censor.
@Jewwise: without entering into a theological discussion, I just would like to clarify a couple of historical points.
The Inquisition and the witch hunt have nothing to do with each other. These are 2 completely distinct historical events.
The Inquisition happened during the Middle Ages and it was a Exceptional, a special Tribunal set up to judge Heresy.
All ages have their heresies, even our so modern and advanced XXIth century (being anti-gay, anti-judaic, exposing the lol-ocaust are now considered as heresies the exact same way).
The witch hunt happened much later, in the XVIIth century.
The witch hunt affected mainly protestant countries and also France. But protestants continued to burn long after France had put a stop to this popular hysteria which none can really explain to this day. Rome, the siege of the Vatican, did not burn one single witch.
In countries such as France for example (the largest european country at that time), the judicial power was never at the hands of the Church: it was the King’s exclusive right.
It was then delegated to the bourgeoisie in XIIIth century. It was never the Church but always within the hands of secular men.
The Church only judged in matters of religion, while the witch hunt was never seen as something of any concern to the Church.
The witches who were burned in France were all burned by orders of the SECULAR judges (who, as it happens, were at war against the church), or burned by the people themselves before any judge could come over, set up a tribunal and pass judgment.
The Church is completely guiltless of any crime during the witch hunt and let it be known, those secular judges never missed an opportunity to burn priests and monks under the same charges whenever they could.
If you are interested in this topic (as I am!!), I recommend the work of the historian Norman Cohn.
Thank you Sabba. Happy Resurrection Day to all. May we all continue to rise. 🙂
you ask me to “respect” your views but THIS ARTICLE does not respect MY views either — AND i do NOT HAVE ANY COMMAND from anyone to respect your or ANY OTHER’s views.
You say the bible is corrupt but there is NO PROOF submitted as to how or why it is corrupt. IT IS NOT CORRUPT. it is the mind of the UNSAVED MAN that is corrupt.
you say you do not ask me to repent but YOU SPEAK BLASPHEMY when you say the bible is corrupt SO I SAY TO YOU AGAIN: REPENT! REPENT! REPENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well yes most of the witch hunts were not connected to the church BUT that doesnt apply to the Pittenweem Witch Trials in Scotland particularly around 1704. The local minister breathing “fire and brimstone ” stoked up the local congregation over many years along the lines of you shall not suffer a witch to live . Over that period several people were tortured to death that would bring joy to the heart of the Marquis de Sade .They were so sadistically killed that I dont want to spoil the peace of this day by recounting it . But see for yourself and click on the “Pittenweem Witches ” James V1 of Scotland was a denouncer of witches . They even killed a local lad who was “simple minded ” .
That was beautiful Sabba. Thank you for sharing with us today. And may God’s blessings and mercy be upon you and us all. Allah yusallmak Sabba.
