Universal
Truth Assembly
The
5 Principles of Universal Truth
Principle
One
Truth
Stands Regardless of Your Opinion
Truth
respects nobody, fears nobody, befriends not just one group of
people, or one church, or one synagogue, or one mosque or one temple,
and keeps its own opinion intact eternally and irrevocably regardless
of all objections. Truth will not compromise, it sees things exactly
the way it sees things, and it is always correct, whether you like it
or not. Truth can be found by everyone, yet not all always
acknowledge the wisdom of honesty or the simplicity of truthfulness.
Wether you like it or not the truth is what it simply is, and will
stand unchanged and irrevocable for all eternity.
Principle
Two
History
past is irrevocable Truth – History future is Truth yet to be
You
can not and never will be able to change the historical facts of the
past. You can misrepresent history through lies and subterfuge, but
what actually happened historically is unchangeable. God himself can
not alter past history, as some might unwisely suggest he can.
History future may well and truly be planned, but once it has
occurred it becomes historical truth as well.
Principle
Three
Mathematical
laws are unchangeable Truth
1
+ 1 always = 2.
This
law of mathematics can never be violated or made untrue.
5
x 5 = 25
This
law of mathematics, also, can never be violated or made untrue.
In
fact, all proven laws of mathematics can never be violated or made
untrue.
Definitions
may change, but the principles they represent never change.
Principle
Four
Knowledge
Factual
knowledge – knowledge which is based on truth – can’t change.
Principles of science established always have historical fact to back
them up even if God changed the laws of the universe. Thus knowledge
remaining true according to the principles of the universe remain
true, unless God decides to change them at a future point, leading to
the last principle of God himself.
Principle
Five
God
Knowing
the God of truth is not a revelation all humans automatically have.
We have atheists, agnostics, many different types of religion and
belief systems, so true knowledge of God does not appear to be
automatically available. Through my own revelation, which I pass on
to you to be received only as an act of faith that I am not lying, is
that God exists, he is the God of Israel, and that he has flawless
truth as part of his nature. This revelation has come to me through
his own spoken word into my mind. For the Universal Truth Assembly,
God is the ultimate source of all physical and spiritual truth. From
him flows eternal truth and, whatever else, all questions we may have
on every subject possible can be found in God. Yet, when and how he
shares those answers, well, that is up to him.
Mathematical
Knowledge
Here
are the numbers from 1 to 10.
1
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
The
sequence continues
11
12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Logically,
then
21
22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
And
so on until
91
92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99
And
then
100
From
there
101
102 etc.
till
999
then
1000
And
so on the numbers grow, ONE at a time, all the way on forever.
1
= One
2
= Two
3
= Three
4
= Four
5
= Five
6
= Six
7
= Seven
8
= Eight
9
= Nine
10
= Ten
11
= Eleven
12
= Twelve
Decimals
Halfway
between 1 and 2 is
1.5
There
is also
1.1
1.2
1.3
1.4
1.5
1.6
1.7
1.8
1.9
2
=
One Point One
The
dot . Is called a point.
There
is also
1.11
1.12
etc.
till
1.111
and
the decimilization of a number can go on forever also, infinitely
dividing theoretically
1
+ 1 = 2
One
Plus One = Two
2
+ 2 = 4
Two
Plus Two = Four
=
means 'Equal' or 'Equals'
so
34
+ 16 = 50
888
+ 29 = 917
etc.
and infinite types of addition or plussing can be done
4
– 3 = 1
46
– 17 = 29
=
Minus or subtract
3
x 3 = 9
4
x 5 = 20
x
= 'Times' or 'Multiply' or lots of
There
is also the divide symbol which is ÷
9
Divided by 3 = 3
10
Divided by 5 = 2
24
Divided by 6 = 4
In
this equation:
3
+ 7 x 6 – 4 =
You
follow order of operations
In
order of operations you do the Multiplications and divisions of the
equation FIRST and get those answer and then you do Additions and
then subtractions. That is how maths works
So
the answer to the equation above is
7
x 6 = 42
3
+ 42 = 45
45
– 4 = 41
The
answer to the equation is 41.
Order
of operations are multiplications and divisions equally first and
then additions and subtractions, operating in sequential order of the
way the digits are arranged in the equation from left to
right.

Psalm
Five
We
walk this life
And
time and again we deny the faith
For
we see reason in our own mind
And
our own wisdom
Rather
than acknowledge the truth
Self
evident in the beauty of nature
Self
evident in the beauty of creation
For
the stars testify to the power of eternity
The
Sun and Moon beckon the wise to consider who crafted them
The
Mountains and Valleys boldly tell who fashioned them out
The
Sea and Rivers speak of the creator of their refreshing touch
The
Plants and Animals boast of Him who made them living
Yet
Man
Pride-Filled
man
Who
should know best of all
Says
there is no God
For
we are evolution
And
we are our own Lords
And
we are our own Sovereign

Psalm
Six
The
end of sin is death
The
start of life is repentance of all sin
The
end of sin is death
The
start of life is commitment to God
The
end of sin is death
The
start of life is to follow the laws of truth
The
end of sin is death
And
a fool follows his folly till the end
The
way of Torah is the way of life
The
way of obedience to God’s law is the way of health
Living
in our freedoms to sin is our own choice
Living
in our freedoms to sin is our own choice of death
The
end of sin is death
The
start of life is repentance of all sin
Psalm
Seven
The
Truth should guide, the Truth should teach
The
Truth should try, and indeed impeach
The
Truth should be known, but sometimes God deludes
For
if we honour not the truth, we are caught up with things lewd
The
Truth is wisdom, it honours the wise
The
Truth is humble, it ignores all pride
The
Truth is eternal, its paradigms change not
And
if we honour the Truth, in lies we'll not be caught
God
help me speak truly, and not deceive and not lie
God
help me speak honestly, and have true reasons why
God
help me to honour the words of the wise
Who've
spoke truth to mankind, amidst corruption and lies
Psalm
Eight
Calmly
I should walk with the Lord. I should not be full of fear, yet
should
trust in him to overcome those who oppress me. Do people
yet
oppress me? I live in a good land, with good souls all around,
yet
not
all, perhaps, wish me well. Some voices still might harm me, and
some
might
verily wish evil upon me. Have I led a sheltered life? Not so much
in
my youth, which had its challenges, but in latter years it has become
easier
to
dwell with these sons of men which abound in this nation. Calmly
I
should
walk with the Lord, and if oppressors do rise, to bring my
troubles
to
God and let his sovereign power deal with those who would be at
war
with
my soul. The Lord's strength can overcome all evil, for Almighty is
his
power
and great is his wisdom. Praise him for it. Calmly I should walk
with
the
Lord, and fear not. He is there to guide me and lead me, and
though
death
itself raise its hand against my very soul, in him I shall still see
life
and
the eternity of his graceful hand. Calm is the Lord's hand upon
my
very
soul.
AMEN
Psalm
Nine
I
walk through this life, and I try to work it out.
I
want to scream sometimes, sometimes I want to shout.
Why
is life so unfair, why is it so hard?
I
have these wounds in my life, I'm full of battle scars.
Challenges,
they never cease, I've fought them all my life.
It's
troubles and problems, I've always had this strife.
Every
day, every night, I worry and despair.
It
seems nobody likes me at all, it seems nobody cares.
There
is no point anyway, we're just a chemical rush
The
universe just spat us out, there's nothing we can trust
And
when I die, it's just the end, there was no point anyway
It
was always just a heartache to me, living life each day
But
that wasn't how the story ended, I found a truth at last
It
was all about my future, and taught me lessons from my past
It
taught me I had suffered much, but there was a point to this
To
show me that it doesn't work, that without faith there is no
bliss
And
this faith it came to enter in, it showed me a better way
It
showed me how to live my life, to work through every day
That
I needed morals, that I needed law, that I needed peace inside
That
I had to find there was a God, and draw close to his side
I
found this God, I trusted him, and life started to change
I
found the point of living life, and following in God's way
It
started working, the troubles left, and grace came to my soul
For
sin had been repented of, I'd finally paid its toll
AMEN
Psalm
Ten
A
smile can warm a heart, It can brighten up a day.
A
joke can bring levity, It can bring happiness so gay.
We
should be happy, joy is wonderful, a cheerful mood should be on our
face.
Life
can be tough, it can be so hard, we need a grin to end disgrace.
It
doesn't mean to mockery we should descend in wrathful glee.
It
doesn't mean to dark sarcasm we should descend so chidingly.
Keep
your humor well in check, but in the end do have a smile.
To
brighten up each day and night, do have a laugh once in a
while.
Psalm
Eleven
A
long journey must start with a step. And the journey to the kingdom
of God
must
start with a step. Find the courage to take that step. Find the
courage
for
that leap of faith. Lord guide me along the way, Lord guide each
day.
Lord
teach that which I should know, Lord help me to learn the truth you
show.
The
Kingdom of God is holy and true. The Kingdom should be for me and
the
Kingdom
should be for you. We should all take that step, and seek God's
domain.
We
should all seek the Kingdom, and the glory of God's name. Torah does
guide
us
and show us the truth. The rainbow covenant, well that's natures
proof.
God
is the designer and fashioner of life. God will lead you to peace,
and guard
you
from strife. If you honestly seek the Kingdom divine, it will become
your
salvation
as it has become mine. So seek ye the kingdom each day and each
night.
It
will be your souls glory through all of life's plight.
Psalm
Twelve
Walk
in the garden, rest in the shade,
enjoy
all the sunshine, and remember to pray.
Enjoy
God's creation, it's his gift unto you,
remember
the handiwork God fashioned with truth.
This
world has the answers to all of your woes.
It's
in God's creation that your story is told.
You
are part of this world, the natural environment,
it
was made for you and your providence.
Praise
be to God who has made this world for me.
A
world to enjoy for all eternity.
Praise
be to God who knows where I belong.
In
my garden, my home, where I sing life's great song.
The
Kingdom of Noah Torah - Section 4 - The 228 Rules
It
is the policy of Noahide Books not to employ Jewish or Israelite
people.
UTA
Books also publish the fifth Rainbow Bible as well as the 'Chronicles
of the Infinite Realm of Majesty' series.
Understanding
Moral Truth is based on Truth. Truth is Factual.
God
should always act in Noahides best interests.
Doctrinal
Truth and Purity ARE Important. Being too legalistic and condemning
is not friendly. Being excessively permissive tolerates too much sin.
A balancing act between Judgement and Mercy needs to be in the Hearts
of Men. For a good balance, seek doctrinal truth and purity. They ARE
Important.
Facts
remain true, and are an excellent rock in life to build upon. Tell
the truth and seek the truth. Keep it in your heart, and you will
find eternal principles which guide you to success, happiness, wealth
and love - and comfort, peace, serenity, pleasure and goodness with
God, and satisfaction and completion and consolation.
Completion
of a personally handwritten copy of the Psalms of each relevant
Fellowship is a suggested requirement for all members of the 7DF.
The
founder of the fellowship, Daniel Thomas Andrew Daly, is officially a
member of all 7 Divine Fellowships and all Assemblies of Faith, but
primarily fellowships with Assembly of the Divine Creator.
The
Kingdom of Noah is the Kingdom of God.
It
is intended that the 7 sections of the Rainbow Bible have eternal
relevance in heaven also.
Put
your guts into it. Put your heart into it. Put your soul into it. Put
your TRUTH into it. Make it real, baby. It will last forever.
The
Kingdom of Noah Torah's are compiled through the thoughts and ideas
of Daniel Thomas Andrew Daly.
The
7DF are never restricted from creating inventions and writings and
knowledge to design and produce products which suit their purposes
over eternity. 7DF members within their own assemblies keep our
product private and personal to our own community. We are not bound
by copyrights or patent laws of mainstream society as we have every
innate ability to create such products within our own knowledge. All
inventions are tested and approved of for quality by the 7DF
hierarchy.
The
wisdom of God is seen in his creation.
We
teach in this Fourth Rainbow Torah the truth that What you acquire in
life on earth you acquire for eternity.
Israel,
as a people, is not much of a concern to us. That is God's business -
not ours.
Concentrate
in acquiring things in life for eternity.
UTA
recognizes international copyrights.
UTA
members acknowledge the law of the land when it is not
corrupt.
Written
18 April 2013CE. New Zealand legalized gay marriage overnight. This
is what obviously tickles their fancy. The UK also did it recently.
It is viewed in the politically correct mindset as progress. It is
actually regress. It is not wise, and the torment people suffer from
embracing too liberal sexuality is grave convictions and lack of
feeling entirely comfortable with their behaviour. There is a point
when sexual liberalisation becomes too much. Gay marriage is an
example of this. The repealment of these laws by a wiser future
generation is recommended.
The
Civil Law is the law.
You
live your life again in the time frame of the century or centuries
you lived in the next life. If you lived from 1910 to 1989, you will
live again the following century in that level of heaven, those years
again. The centuries repeat eternally. If you crossed centuries in
your lifespan, the same thing applies. In the other time in heaven,
you live in a semi-real dream state. It is living life, yes, but it
is sort of a dream state, and not quite as real as life on earth.
When you awake to your living years, it is far more real.
Keep
the Faith
Keep
the Truth
Bite
the Bullet – Accept the Rebuke
Theoretically,
should God create the other angels invented in the Angels Saga, the
140 Seraphim could have religious works and ideas and fellowships
based on the ideas of our faith.
The
Book of Revelation in the Christian New Testament is a false
prophecy
Be
consistent. Correct your mistakes. Work at it. Persevere.
God
is a truthful God
Be
moral and tell the truth to people
Do
not hide behind lies and false images of yourself. Be brave enough to
tell people the facts about yourself and your life.
In
your business and any political dealings, make sure you are
completely transparent and honest, so that people can appraise your
true merit and worth.
If
a judge or official or elder is corrupt and known to be, it is ok to
lie or deceive them if they will abuse their position of trust and
authority over you
Don't
tell tales and run to the maddening crowd as a talebearer. Don't
spread gossip – leave that alone in the ladies magazines.
Judge
fairly and honestly and make sure you have the facts of the situation
clear, lucid and understood in your mind
Trust
and rely on God and inform him about your life and seek his advice.
He doesn't always pry into your personal life, you know.
Don't
give out trust automatically – let people earn that trust by
watching the words they say and the ways they behave. If they are
honest people and not corrupt, they are good for friends, but a
foolish man lets a wicked man into his house. Only trouble can
follow.
When
called to give a speech speak truly and honestly. Don't tell them
just what they want to hear – be brave enough to speak your own
mind.
The
Truth cuts through Lies like a Knife cuts through Butter.
Don't
flatter women with lies and deceits about your love for them. Be
honest with women for a good relationship which lasts.
Facts
are truth, so make sure your knowledge is replete with factual
information, and remember to check crucial details for accuracy.
The
idea of the 7 Rainbow Bibles is for each denomination to primarily
read their own Rainbow Bible for the most part and build their lives
around the structures of morality and areas of knowledge each
represents. But learning and gaining knowledge and wisdom for all 7
of the Rainbow Bibles is what makes 7DF unique, and is a perfectly
acceptable and normal part of the way of life for each congregation
and its members.
UTA
members should pride themselves on telling the truth in accurate
representations.
Do
not be afraid to speak the truth.
Telling
the truth will get you a better reputation then telling lies. Nobody
trusts a liar very much.
Speak
honestly with your friends, but sometimes it is wise to conceal words
which might cut deep.
Speak
honestly with your friends and sometimes it is wise to speak those
words which might cut deep.
Truth
and honesty are the best business policies.
Know
the truth and live by it.
Help
people when they are in trouble but be cautious in neighbourhoods
were there is a bad reputation as thieves can pretend to need
help.
Stay
away from troublesome neighbourhoods
Stay
away from troublesome individuals
Stay
away from gangs and criminals
Avoid
wicked people like the plague
Report
crimes, but remember to often do this anonymously so no criminal can
take his revenge
Don't
get involved with wicked people – it only leads to trouble – and
hell awaits at the end of your pride and foolishness
Repent
of wicked days of youth and seek atonement with God most High for
your foolish years
Repent
to show you care and are sorry
Turn
away from evil and practice righteousness
Jesus
is not God
Jesus
is not Christ
Zerubbabel
was the Messiah of the Israelites.
Jesus
was a Jew on a personal mission
Muhammed
was the same
And
so was Baha’ullah
Just
to name a few
Don't
be an iconoclast challenging God's authority. Your end will not be
pleasant.
Avoid
braggotry
Be
Humble
Keep
on praying for you needs for it builds up the strength of each
request the more that your pray for it, and the more success you can
gain through continual and consistent prayer, and repeating your
prayer requests often.
Use
the Rainbow Torah passages and quote them within your prayer to
sanctify the prayer request.
The
more prayer you pray the more you will be guided by God.
Pray
constantly and find a time in your life when you can make a mammoth
effort on prayer for a time period, however long that may be
Pray,
pray, pray, and pray for good things constantly
Keep
on praying
Just
reminding you, pray, for it builds up the strength of your life with
holiness and good things, and the more you pray for you needs on a
particular situation, the more it will be answered
Pray
Repent
And
pray
Walk
with God
Talk
with God
And
if you have to, Squawk with God (heh heh heh)
Tell
God about your day
Tell
God about your life
Tell
God your desires
Tell
God your heart
Tell
God the Truth
Tell
God your needs
Tell
God your prayers
Follow
the law
Keep
the law
Obey
the law
Obey
The law of your nation
Obey
The law of your bible
Obey
The law of God
Obey
The law of truth
Obey
The law of love and respect
Obey
The law of life
Repent
of sin often
True
wisdom is not found in a book. It is found in your heart and
following the rule of love.
True
wisdom is not found in a book. It is found in your soul and following
the rule of peace.
True
wisdom is not found in a book. It is found in your mind and following
the rule of self control.
Practice
discipline in your study routine and you will continue to grow in
knowledge, and bless yourself thereby.
Be
patient. Life works out when you give it some natural time.
The
natural order flows at its own pace, not the pace of Babylon.
Go
with the flow of the Holy Spirit.
Ask
God to guide you.
Don't
hold grudges against man or God. Let them go.
Be
at peace.
Practice
no violence
Be
at peace
Show
concern for your neighbour
Don't
try to commit fraud over people or get involved with scams
Find
a balance in life which keeps it happy and at peace
Moderation
is a good idea
All
things in moderation
There
is a time for this and a time for that
There
is a time for all things under God's good Sunday
Fill
you life with dashes of peace, drops of humility, oodles of love,
tonnes of kindness and big helpings of ice cream. Yeh, gotta have
that ice cream.
Make
Love not war
Don't
be a stereotype
Be
original
But
conform if you want to
Listen
to the advice of godly people
Stay
away from sinners
Show
respect for God
Don't
worship idols
Don't
covet or desire property which doesn't belong to you. Often this
leads to theft and other problems
Don't
worship Jesus – that is a sin
Only
worship God if you are going to worship anybody
God
is one
God
is truth
God
has great loving concern
Don't
hurt people
Don't
commit violence
Wash
yourself and keep yourself clean on a regular basis
Visit
the medical professionals when you need to
Eat
good and healthy foods
Visit
the dentist when you have teeth problems
Take
care of your body
Wash
your clothes regularly
keep
you house tidy and clean
remember
to maintain any machines you own in proper working condition and not
let them fall to rack and ruin unless no longer needed
If
you have a car, obey the speed rules, seatbelt rules, no drink
driving rules, and car maintenance programs
Stay
away from illegal drugs. Don't use them. They only mess you up in the
end.
Learn
the core rules of your society and learn to obey them
Try
to get along with people and show respect for them
Have
a good heart and attitude towards people
Show
love
Practice
Kindness
Practice
Mercy
Practice
obedience to God
Don't
eat animal blood
Don't
steal
Don't
rob
Don't
vandalize
Don't
cheat on your partner in adultery. You took an oath to stay loyal –
at least mean it and honour the marriage bed.
Idolatry
will mess you up in the end
Repent
of sin
Respect
the privacy of others
Don't
flaunt your ego
Don't
put someone else down, just to promote yourself. You only end up
looking like a bigot.
Respect
the fact that other people are not always going to see eye to eye
with you, and exercise patience with them because of it. It doesn't
mean you should compromise your beliefs though – unless you are
wrong.
Search
the truth out – ask God all about it.
Life
is full of growing pains. But it makes you stronger and wiser to
endure and not quit.
To
thrive in life, persevere and work hard.
Study
a lot of knowledge, and remember to apply it to your life.
A
hypocrite wants to learn new religious things, but not acknowledge
the truths which contradict their religion.
Sinners
think they have it all worked out – tell it to the judge on
judgement day.
There
is a man who is always right, even when he is wrong.
Pride
comes before the fall.
Don't
kidnap people.
Don't
rape women.
Don't
abuse others.
Don't
hurt others.
Bullying
is a sign of a sick and twisted heart.
Cultists
like to congregate – there is a world full of them.
Remember,
God is being sarcastic UTA.
Repent
of sin.
Try
to do good things with your life.
When
you are bored, read the Rainbow Bible.
Commit
to eternal study of the Rainbow Bible – it is definitely the way to
go.
Speak
the truth, and do not be afraid to do so. Have courage and stand your
ground against any hypocrite hiding behind a shield of lies.
Cults
are full of people who just want to sin in the end.
Don't
have a cult mentality and don't try and indoctrinate people into your
beliefs. Show them by example, and demonstrate your words are honesty
and truth.
You
know its indoctrination when the pastor is trying to control and
manipulate you especially for his own purposes.
You
know its indoctrination if they go heavy on the tithe preaching.
Rarely preach on the tithe, ok.
It
is not mandatory to tithe in the UTA, but members can do so
voluntarily if they wish to. A bit of support financially to the
pastors though is just common respect for your assembly. But never go
crazy on your offerings, get a grip – take care of your life FIRST
please.
Share
things with your friends, but never take for granted a friend, and
always return things they have lent you within a good time period.
They could miss them and want them. Never take for granted something
somebody has loaned you for a while, and return it within reasonable
time. Don't embarrass them by making them ask for it, and even ask
them if they want it back from time to time if they possibly might be
anxious about it. In developed friendships understanding can grow on
these issues, but remember to respect other peoples things when they
lend them to you.
Common
sense is understanding those kinds of ideas which seem normal,
regular and natural to people. Extreme perspectives are not really
common sense.
The
truth takes no prisoners. It puts to death the lies.
Be
kind to your parents and show them love, respect and fidelity.
Be
faithful to your occupation and train yourself to make sure you show
up on time, do the prescribed hours and put in a solid, decent and
excellent working effort.
Don't

Unifying
Statement of General 7DF Principles of Faith
These
principles are fundamental to all 7 Divine Fellowships of Karaite
Adamide-Noahide Faith
We
all follow the Rainbow Torah (Genesis 1 – 11:9) as the minimum
foundation of our spiritual walk with God
In
general, we fellowship in Assembly Halls once per week usually. HNF
fellowships on Sunday, AOTDC fellowships on Monday, UFA fellowships
on Tuesday, AOTLG fellowships on Wednesday, UTA fellowships on
Thursday, AOTMH fellowships on Friday and HAF fellowships on
Saturday. Each day of the week is a Sabbath Day of Rest for one of
the fellowships, although they may also meet on weekend days as each
sees fit.
Offerings
for the upkeep of each fellowship is the general tradition for the
most part. An assembly hall usually needs maintenance and pastoral
figures usually need payment for administering their fellowship and
preaching sermons etc. AOTLG is more flexible, but some sort of
agreed understanding would probably be for the best as a memorandum
of understanding
Each
fellowship can study the whole Rainbow Bible. The usual study
section, though, for each fellowship is the section of the Rainbow
Bible of their fellowship.
In
initial years it is important to develop a foundation by studying the
doctrines of each assembly and learning the faith, but this can
diminish somewhat as time passes by and fundamental lessons are
learned.
We
encourage members to commit to eternity in our fellowships, yet
realize sometimes life moves on and people some times have to go
elsewhere to satisfy their spiritual realizations
We
believe in the Unity of God
We
are non-extremist, traditional, open to both conservative and liberal
approaches and mainstream in our approach to faith, life and societal
interaction
We
are a completely open-to-the-general-public religious experience, and
we disavow all forms of cultic indoctrination and mind control.
Don't
brag about your accomplishments.
Fornicating
is not wise. If you must, practice safe sex.
If
you are going to go with a prostitute, make sure you practice safe
sex.
Incest
is weird in the end.
We
recommend the heterosexual lifestyle – it is definitely the way to
go.
The
gay lifestyle is just a bit faggy.
Gay
Mardi gras are pretty stuffed up as far as we are concerned.
And
most members of the gay Mardi gras have been stuffed up by their
lifestyle. Don't let the politically correct fool you on
that.
Literally.
And
I'm not just talking about the back passage.
Bweerrhh
– change subject please.
Repent
of sin
Repent
of sin
Really
repent of sin
And
mean it
Don't
hassle people
Don't
annoy people
Don't
argue with people – calmly make your issues known
Communicate
with your family
Keep
communication channels open
Don't
bear grudges
Stay
kind to people
Be
merciful
Be
lawful
Respect
God
Obey
the truth
Tell
the Truth
And
the final rule of the Kingdom of Noah Torah is this, and the very
final entry in all of the 7 Rainbow Bibles is this: Whatever will be,
will be. So live life to the fullest, and never waste an opportunity.
AMEN
The
Spiritual Devotional Sermon Series of the Universal Truth
Assembly
Sermon
One - Sarcasm and Holiness
The
Kingdom of Noah is beyond the scope of 29 Merriman Crescent. The
Kingdom of Noah is the remaining world outside of the Covenanted land
of Abraham. Israel is within the Covenanted land of Abraham, yet
quite a portion further is for Abraham’s other children according
to Scripture. The Circumcision applies to the Covenanted land of
Abraham. Three Kingdoms – Noah’s, Abraham’s and Israel’s.
Three Covenants – Noah’s, Abraham’s and Israel’s. Israel’s
chosen Kingly dynasty is the House of David. The Kingdom of Abraham
has no chosen kingly dynasty. The Kingdom of Noah has no chosen
kingly dynasty. In the emerging Noahide world, the firstborns of the
Karaite Noahide faith are the truest witness of Noahide faith.
Talmudic Noahidism is doctrinally erroneous in many ways, these
Noahides stating untruths in saying the 7 law legal code goes back to
Noah. Because this teaching is historical error, they are not
building on the truth. Karaite Noahidism – with sufficient
scholarly information on the formation of the Tanakh, utilising such
information as the documentary hypothesis, and further relying upon
archaeological information and other historical works to elucidate
biblical history – is the correct and true branch of religious
knowledge for mankind to build its faith upon. Ultimately, the
Covenant of Israel must apply in Israel, and so on for Abraham and
Noah in their respective lands. The Rainbow Bibles come from
inspiration in God Most High – the God of Noah. They delve into
areas of sarcasm and humour, which often seem the antithesis of
holiness. Geri Halliwell said ‘It is important to learn to laugh at
ourselves. Not take life too seriously.’ I concur with that
statement. For us, Israel has a stronger calling on a particular type
of holiness – a very serious and grave one. The holiness of the
Kingdom of Noah is indeed earnest and sincere, but we are a degree
more flexible in our permissions and, subsequently, a degree more
tolerant in our dark humour and passions we allow. There are
standards. There are requirements. It is not a free reign to do as
one pleases. Yet in all the Noahide sarcasm, holiness is still
apparent, and the fine art of the Karaite Noahide life is finding the
sensible and wise balancing point between these two extreme passions
of human existence.
Sermon
Two - Understanding Life
An
aspect of the Rainbow Bibles is that we present Universal Knowledge
of what life is like on planet Earth. Earth is a planet, a big chunk
of dirt and rock, water and greenery, revolving around a star we call
the sun, sitting in a solar system with other planets, one of many in
a galaxy, a galaxy one of many in the cosmos. The cosmos possibly has
a limit to its number of galaxies, which might be the central pillar
of creation that God has made in the Universe – the Cosmos – the
Heart of the Universe.
Earth
is filled with animals of various kinds, and the Rainbow Torah
scriptures teach us about some of the categories God uses to define
them. The bible uses an older taxonomic system of classification for
animals, not a newer one. For example, when it calls a bat a bird,
that was the older way of defining what a bat was. It wasn’t using
modern classifications. Noahides can eat every type of animal, but
they must drain the blood from the animal. Yet Jewish people have a
covenant which has unclean and clean animals. The unclean animals
quite possibly have a greater degree of bacteria associated with
them, and may lead to a higher risk of occasional disease.
Earth
has oceans, seas, rivers and lakes. Water is vital to life on planet
earth, and Noahides need to be involved with work to ensure mankind
always has a supply of fresh water, and that poor ones amongst us
receive just as much access to fresh drinking water as rich ones. Yet
you can’t have water without safe and healthy food access, and this
needs to be made available by our societies when and where we can
provide it to the less fortunate. Charity has limits, but it is
important none the less. Your own life and family still should come
first for where you provide. If you can’t take care of yourself,
you can’t take care of anyone else.
Since
Adam we have grown from one man to seven billion and counting. The
world has huge resources available to us, but to continue to feed the
upcoming population growth, ideas like megastructures in smaller
towning areas should be built, capable of housing aquaculture and
horticulture tanks with recycled water, were we can breed fishes and
make plants. Sustainable energy and sustainable resource use –
renewable products – is the only way to go in the up and coming
world. We probably can not rely on petrol and coal forever, and
should be shifting as soon as possible to forms of energy which are
sustainable eternally. The sun is such a thing, and solar power
should be the ongoing cry of future generations.
Mankind
builds villages, towns and cities, were we work in jobs like lawyers,
doctors, judges, nurses, public servants, plumbers, electricians,
bakers, butchers, IT workers, hairdressers, Reiki healers,
psychologists, psychiatrist, police, ambulance, garbage men, grocers
and so on. All of this activity allows us to function in a world
where the infrastructure of it all provides us with all the fun and
entertaining things we now like to do, and gives us something to
occupy ourselves with in life. This has probably been God’s purpose
all along – to develop our wonderful, complex, entertaining,
amazing and enthralling world.
The
heart of it all is to honour God, the fashioner of Nature, and to
find peace in his love and service to his eternal kingdom.
Sermon
Three - The Differentiation and Unity amongst the 7DF
All
7DF people, and all Karaite Noahides, are meant to have access to all
the 7 Rainbow Bibles, the Rainbow Bibles of the Assemblies of Faith
of the ANMand the full ‘Angels Saga’ from Noahide Books. This is
the unity and corpus of our literature and faith. Yet a concentration
of study and devotion to each fellowship’s particular tomes is what
distinguishes them and leads, hopefully, to a unique personality,
spirit and character trait to the life of each of the individual
assemblies. Over the long haul it is intended that each Assembly
prays its own particular psalms and that, when it has fed
sufficiently from the other Rainbow Bibles in foundational years,
they mainly draw upon their own Rainbow Bible as the supplement to
eternal spiritual thinking and focus for devotees and members of each
fellowship. In this sense there is Unity and Differentiation amongst
the 7DF. There is a uniting common factor in the ANM General Rainbow
Bible, which is for every member of the ANM, and this is unity
eternally, and in the Rainbow Torah of Genesis 1:1 – 11:9 we have
the common faith. Further, our message is similar and expressed in
similar, yet of course different ways, through each of the Rainbow
Bibles of the ANM. They all teach the core truths of biblical
monotheism, united, yet of course differing in practice and the
general way of things. In some ways, perhaps, divided we stand and
united we fall and united we stand and divided we fall. It is a
confidence I must maintain as the founder of the ANM that this is
wisdom, and that 7 pillars of divine wisdom, the 7DF, are the
foundational pillars for the ANM, with the other building constructs
being the Assemblies of Faith, and that the whole temple will stand
because it has separate parts, but separate parts which unite to form
the whole. It is a confidence I must have that this way will work
best in the long term, for those who would oppose us can not divide
us for we are divided naturally already, and in the common unity we
shall make our stands, each a tribe of God, each an Assembly and
Fellowship of the Most High King of the Universe. AMEN.
Sermon
Four - Honesty in Sexual Politics
Ultimately
men and women, after the foundational period of choosing to be loyal
to partners for the sake of marriages and children, will have
acquired so many other friends in life, and have been introduced to
so many other people of the opposite sex, that the necessity of
forcing love by a marriage contract will simply lose its appeal. This
happens naturally. Anciently founded family marriages still function
based on natural affection and genuine interest in each other and a
sense of traditional fondness for each other. But when they are
forced to do so they do not work so well, and when people try to hang
onto a relationship because of guilt, it won’t work either. Sexual
liberty is personal liberty – to go with the flow and find those
friends and partners which work naturally for you in the real world,
and who you don’t have to try or pretend to like. It is based on
truth and honesty as eternity progresses. Yet, having said that, I
fear God is not overly fond of divorce, and while in our own human
rationalisations we might feel we have 'grown apart' the Most High
does not necessarily agree with all of our casual attitudes. Children
lead to obligation, whether we like the person still or not. We
married them. We vowed to them. We had children to them. It really is
supposed to be for better or for worse. Perhaps, in the world to
come, we might not even have that much of a choice. We'll have to
stick with our commitments, tough it out, and learn to get along with
the person we formed an initial attraction to anyway. Ultimately, if
it just isn't working, and we really do not like or hate our person,
and think they have an awful manner or personality, God does allow
divorce. So, thinking about all of this, think carefully before you
propose to someone, and if you are going to take vows, why bother
unless you are really going to mean them. No children really ever
like their parents being separated. They always want mum and dad
together. There is something totally natural about it. Honesty in
sexual politics, thus, and ideally, should be there right at the
beginning, and when we know we have found a keeper, be prepared to
acknowledge that it is not always going to be a fairly tale happily
ever after scenario, and instead find some commitment, keep
communication channels open, and be prepared to work it out with the
love of your life. It is a far more honest relationship when you
do.
Sermon
Five - Reckless and Excitable Behaviour
In
Sexual Liberties, the freedoms to choose homosexual and bisexual
lifestyles, or too gravely incestuous or bestial lifestyles, are
lifestyles which, over the long haul of an eternal life, decay away
into casualness and, ultimately, a sinner’s mindset of not caring
and being a supposed ‘Free Spirit’. Fornication has this problem
as well if practised too liberally and freely. Jealousies are the
bane of life in promiscuous fornication. Conservativeness in our
sexual practice – a complete dedication to practising sexual
behaviour calmly, peacefully and non-offensively is 100% required to
maintain your eternal life and not be condemned by the heavenly
eternal community. Our modern generation of heavenly citizens in our
own cycles are a degree more tolerant on homosexual and bisexual
behaviour, but you would need to be very saintly and conservative
about such things to imagine yourself being able to practice this
lifestyle on an ongoing basis in your eternity. People ARE willing to
accept you as a homosexual if you conform to peace, quietness and
gentleness. Do not be profane about your sexual practices, and such
behaviour will be allowed. Have you noticed old people on earth? They
tend to get conservative with age. This is what heaven is like.
Heaven desires a gentle and conservative and peaceful way of life,
and we do not want extroverted dykes and fags upsetting our
sensitivities. A conservative and respectful old poof will probably
find a degree of acceptance in certain communities. Yet the raging
Sodomite rapist will be disdained, hated and forfeits all eternity in
heaven. Keep all your sexual reckless and excitable behaviour well
and truly under control in heaven, and grow more so over time, and
some of your desires will be gradually accepted in allowance for you
if you remain eternally discreet and polite, and keep it to yourself
and your own community of like-minded individuals.
Sermon
Six - Honesty
Honesty
is naturally a virtue. It is a prized thing, a holy thing, for when
we are honest with people on an ongoing and permanent basis they
learn that they can trust the things we say and that our speech is
pure and true. And that gives us a good reputation and, when we are
genuine and honest with the world, our good reputation means we not
only have genuinely earned the blessings we receive from our societal
interactions but, quite a lot of the time, we are only gaining many
blessings because we have been honest, true and forthright. The
Universal Truth Assembly places honesty and truthfulness as the
greatest of virtues upon which we focus. Assembly of the Divine
Creator is perhaps a focus on creation, Universal Faith Assembly a
focus on faith, Assembly of the Living God a focus on the Living
experience and Assembly of the Most High a focus on God in his most
exalted state. Yet, for us, it is more about a paradigm which focuses
on that idea of truthfulness and being honest in our dealings in
life. Certainly it is not the only thing we are focused upon in UTA,
nor the other fellowships I have described having just one agenda
either, for our purpose as a fellowship in Noahide faith is to
embellish our members with a full and rich life in which all sorts of
spiritual and physical blessings flow for the nourishment of our
Assemblies life. It is a full array of spiritual paradigms and
teachings which fill our lives but, yes, when all is said and done,
the truth itself, the concept of truth, is perhaps the greatest of
our focuses and something which helps define us. Be honest, I
encourage you. Be transparently honest. Have what you have said be
able to be checked and checked again, and be known for its accuracy
and factuality. Attention to detail, small details often, are
sometimes what distinguish one soul from another and one organisation
from another, and like each 7DF, UTA should also have a focus on
building organisations and communities and associations through its
members, and the ultimate long term prosperity and success of our
organisations can often depend on how honest and truthful we are. If
we present the clear picture, the accurate picture, the truthful
picture of who we are straight off the bat, we will never leave
people guessing as to what we represent and, I am sure, our long term
trustworthiness and usefulness to both society and God himself will
become plain and obvious, whatever the facts of the situation at hand
may be. Be honest. Let it be the balm of your life as an antidote to
the deceptions of the dark ones. Let your honesty judge every motive
of the crypticities of your heart, and bring to life that which
really is the choices you want to make in your life as opposed to
vain wishes or untrue wishes which don't completely represent what
you represent as a person. Be honest. Let that virtue be a moniker
for which you are famed throughout the land, the people at least
knowing, when dealing with you or your fellowship, that you will tell
them the truth. Be honest, and when you are in inter-fellowship with
other 7DF associations at conferences and things, share the fruits of
your spiritual labours and bless them also, and be that example they
are relying on you to set also for the name of 7DF, a name which we
can be proud of, in time, when we have earned our spiritual medals
and stripes. Be honest, and walk in the spirit of God, whose truth
searches the inmost parts of your being and, through clinging close
to Jehovah each and every day of your life, truthfulness can happen
more naturally and effectively for he is a God of truth and rewards
those who hide no deceit or corruption within their souls. So, I
encourage you, walk with Jehovah, talk with Jehovah, and set that
example of honesty each and every day that you know you should, which
will bring peace of mind and honesty of heart to your life and soul
in all your hard and easy and simply every day, regular decisions and
choices. Alleluia. Amen.
Sermon
Seven - Work Ethics
A
nation will start faltering when it forgets to follow its work
procedures correctly, properly, accurately and honestly - so in your
work you should engage in your occupation with ALL necessary effort
put in to ensure your job is done completely, and a proper and
diligent and concerned eye on your fellow workmates responsibilities,
learning to keep them in line when necessary, and ensuring their job
is done also. Initiative is doing the job of a supervisor straight
away, and improving the reputation of your own work effort, and the
team you are part of. All necessary and vital components of each
working task MUST be completed in correct time, according to
procedure, and to the best of your abilities. Do not shirk. Be
responsible. Get the job done. Earn your pay fairly and squarely.
Ethics in the work place mean submitting to the rule of law which
governs your occupations, honouring contracts, supplying all the
required goods and services to the correct amount of the agreement,
not overcharging, being friendly and courteous with customers, and
following company guidelines and rules and procedures to the best of
your ability. It also means not going into shady areas where you
might still be somewhat 'legal' in what you are doing, but you are
definitely in an area which is questionable on morals and perhaps
what we might term the right or proper thing to do. Ethics, in other
words. Ethics are the hallmark of professionals. They do their job
not just to legal requirements, but in the correct spirit and manner
of the job which they should expect of themselves also. Noahides
should be ethical in their work procedures. Sometimes it might be
difficult to know if something is ethical, or whether its a liberty
you can take. Always best to exercise caution, and it is always best
to query a supervisor before doing something rashly which you might
regret later. Better safe than sorry as they say. Be ethical, be
honest, and you will get along in your workplace well
enough.
Sermon
Eight – Things of Stone and Wood
When
things of stone and wood, which have no spiritual soul are worshiped,
it is idolatry. A statue of Jesus or Mary DOES have a spiritual soul
associated with it, because these people are real upon which they are
based, even if the object is only a thing of stone and wood. To
worship Jesus as God is an idolatrous stupidity, but crosses and
crucifixes and statues of Jesus and Mary and saints are quite fine in
terms of objects of religious veneration and devotion if you have a
spiritual affection for these people. Karaite Adamide-Noahide faith
does not rebuke the paraphernalia of Catholicism, but rather the idea
that Jesus is divine is an object of concern. Yet love and devotion
to Jesus we do not condemn at all if your heart is drawn to this
persona. Traditionally, though, things of stone and wood are the old
idols of the nations, god which were never real gods, and still
aren't, which men worshiped in dumb vanity, as they did not know
better, and often did not try to know much better. It was a god, made
by human hands, as the soul was looking for a spiritual inclination,
something humans naturally gravitate to, and in its own creation it
thought it had connected with the divine. It is sad really, because
such souls often did and do want to find a spiritual shelter and
comfort for their lives from the worlds harsher realities. There
things of stone and wood which are holy – the tabernacle was made
from earthly matter and so was the temple, and God will make himself
a home for himself in this real and physical world, in a way which we
can relate to. If you have a thing of stone and wood and think it
divine, think again, and search instead for Yahweh, the true God of
creation, and set your heart and mind upon his holy spirit, and not
the works of your own hands, which will fall away and leave you
despaired of any true hope and reward. The LORD is the living God and
in him alone do I make my boast. AMEN.
Sermon
Nine - 7DF - Same Sex Civil Union Policy
This
is the policy of UTA-5DF, but generally the same sort of ideas apply
for 7DF in general and AOF (Assemblies of Faith)
*
We allow civil unions between Same Sex couples
*
We recognize in these unions
-
a relationship of love, care, fidelity & respect can and does
occur
-
that the sexual behaviours in these unions can give pleasure and
excitement
*
We do not recognize any valid 'Sexual Union' between these couples
*
We recognize that sexual activity does occur and we allow and
tolerate this behaviour
-
but we do not recognize this behaviour as valid in any way as
justifying a 'Sexual Union' or 'Mateship' of such a union
-
having said that we recognize, allow and tolerate this sexual
behaviour (without discrimination) but do not recognize any valid
unionship in terms of 'Mateship' in relation to this behaviour
*
We recognize this union in terms of friendship, respect, commitment,
love, affection and kindness between the couple, but we do not
sanction sexual union, yet we do recognize that sexual activity does
occur. We do not sanction this sexual behaviour, but conversely we do
not discriminate against it.
Sermon
Ten – Classification of Gay Behaviours
Classification
and range of Gay Behaviours and 7DF Judgement on this:
Homosexuality:
Mild gay behaviour. Law abiding citizens. Tolerable to 7DF
Faggotry:
Reckless behaviour. Carnal and disruptive. Non-tolerable to
7DF
Sodomites:
Lawless behaviour. Wild and uncontrollable. Rapists. Sick. Extreme
sinners to 7DF
These
classifications are my own idea, and are meant to be a general sort
of judgment about when a gay person has gone from a state of being
reasonably lawful in their general life conduct, and still pleasing
to society for the most part, to the point where they flaunt it in
society and behave in quite crude ways, which I simply use the term
faggotry to describe, and ultimately, the debased, crude and lawless
level, which I call Sodomites, the kind of people which God destroys
with burning sulfur and brimstone. Black and white, Leviticus says
put to death a person involving themselves with such behaviour – I
am not really sure if there is a clear point where God tolerates them
at all or not – it does not really go into an great elaboration on
the subject. But I do apply the judgment of Genesis 18 & 19 on
the subject and Abraham's intercession for the people of Sodom and
Gomorrah. In the end, if only a small amount of righteous people were
present, God would have relented. There wasn't, so he destroyed the
place. Perhaps this idea can be applied on an individual level –
perhaps – which would be argued then that when a gay person is
otherwise lawful enough then perhaps we should just live and let
live. I don't know if its acceptable judgment – I don't know for
sure at all. Even generally just homosexual behaviour might still be
an utter abomination to Almighty God, and he just won't tolerate this
in human society when his sovereign rulership is recognized. I don't
know for sure. So I must make this judgment, as it seems to be an
issue at this time of life in this modern world, so this is the
judgment I have made, and I will have to live with it, as I guess
will faithful members of the Universal Truth Assembly. God is
merciful, regardless, so we must assume that a gay man who has a good
heart and soul may ultimately be somewhat acceptable in the eyes of
God. Till I know better that is the judgment I have made. I am not
alone in this judgment – others have made it also – so it will
suffice for the official doctrine on the issue for the Universal
Truth Assembly. These judgments are meant to be how UTA relate to
people of the world who practice this lifestyle, and for how we
relate somewhat to member of the 'Rainbow Parade' which is the LGBTQI
based Assembly of Faith for the ANM. Normally UTA would not have any
such members, nor any of the other divine fellowships or assemblies
of faith. However, when a gay person is extremely devoted to the Lord
God and very lawful, keeping any flirtations and behaviour traits
associated with their lifestyle well under control, they can be
considered for membership in other bodies of the ANM. But they would
have to be quite strict indeed in their behaviours of moral
display.
Sermon
Eleven – Classification of Alcohol related
Behaviours
Classification
and range of alcohol inducing behaviours and 7DF Judgement on
this:
Casual
Drinker: Tolerable to 7DF
Social
Drinker: Tolerable to 7DF
Heavy
drinker within own domicile: Tolerable to 7DF
Public
Drunkard: Not really that tolerable to 7DF. (Borderline)
Social
Drinker with reckless behaviour: Not tolerable to 7DF
Public
Drunkard with reckless behaviour: Not Tolerable to 7DF
Wasted
and wild and reckless hooligan: Not Tolerable to 7DF
These
classifications are not really rule of law, or rule of life. Even the
most wasted drinker might have a lot of love in their heart, and be
somewhat a good member of society, and the lightest of drinkers can
be a real bastard. Being an alcoholic doesn't make you a bad person,
you know. So in all judgments on people who behave with alcoholic
tendencies wisdom is needed from case to case and individual to
individual. But, as a general rule of thumb, the above way of judging
the issue makes sense. The more decadent they are in their alcohol
consumption is often a symptom of other deeply rooted problems and
attitudes, and as a guideline, rather than an absolute rule, it is
the way UTA judges these issues for when a member may remain a member
of UTA (and potentially for other ANM bodies if they choose to
utilize these ideas) and when their behaviours mean they will have to
either reform themselves or be barred from the fellowship until they
have sorted themselves out properly. We're forgiving. People are only
human and its a tough life. Sometimes we need a drink to drown our
sorrows and a hard life needs an outlet a lot of the time. Wisdom is
needed on every case which is ever brought to the UTA hierarchy to
judge. But, as said, in the end we call a spade a spade, and if
somebody chooses to allow alcohol to dominate their lives and wreck
their relationships and standing in the community often, in the end,
it is just too damaging to both the spiritual life and harmony as
well as the reputation of the fellowship, to tolerate ongoing
membership of such individuals until they are at least prepared to
look at their ways and make some amendments. We have to to be fair
but we also have to be tough, and the kingdom of God is still the
kingdom of God, where law and order and sobriety is the general way
of things.
Sermon
Twelve – Classification of Illegal Drug Related
Behaviours
Classification
and range of intoxicating drug-use behaviours and 7DF Judgement on
this:
Tobacco:
Tolerable to 7DF. A naturally occurring substance within God's
design. Health professionals advice should be listened to, but
tolerable behaviour.
Marijuana:
Tolerable to 7DF. A naturally occurring substance within God's
design. Health professionals advice should be listened to, but
tolerable behaviour. Appears to be a little more of an issue than
tobacco.
Ecstasy/MDMA:
This is not wise. Madonna (the pop singer) seems to tolerate this
drug, but our understanding is that even one hit of Ecstasy is enough
to kill a person. It does NOT occur naturally within God's design and
is an artificially created drug by mankind. We generally uphold the
principle of law on this issue, and it is difficult to find this drug
tolerable. Generally we strongly advise against the taking of this
drug, and always advocate obedience to the general thrust of society
law (in most cases) anyway.
Other
drugs: Judged on the same principles established above. Results of
taking the drug are of primary concern, and any resulting erratic
behaviours, especially those which cause great bodily harm and/or
lead to reckless or wild civilian behaviour are clearly a matter of
great concern.
Illicit
drug use is judged similarly to alcohol usage. Like alcohol drugs can
cause lots of problems. Marijuana doesn't really kill people
directly, but its not the best for the mind and thinking. Yes, for
medicinal purposes it seems to have a genuine use, and hemp is a
useful product for textiles use. We probably should allow its use in
society for these things. Naturally occurring plants have a use by
humans – they were made by God not just to beautify the world, but
to provide sustenance, and perhaps it may indeed be that that
sustenance is not always just food, but the strange use of smoking
and other ways of intake. I don't really know for sure, but we have
certainly discovered how to use these natural plants for such
purposes, so who is to say that we shouldn't? But manmade drugs –
well – the fundamental problem is that we can create all sorts of
toxic substances which can do great damage to a human being, not just
medicinal ones, so each needs to be judged on its own merit, and just
because it has certain effects which people might find desirable and
enjoyable it does not at all mean that such effects are good or
beneficial. Each needs to be judged on its own merits. I think the
general way the UTA judges alcohol can be applied in some sort of way
to drug use also, but I won't get too specific on this issue, but
leave it to the fellowships individually to decide for themselves.
Suffice to say that drugs can and do do a lot of harm, so exercise
caution with drug using people in the Assembly, and do not
necessarily condone all such behaviours, passing them off as
recreational activities casually. Use common sense and judge with
care.
Sermon
Thirteen – The Advancing Noah Movement
The
Advancing Noah Movement (my religion):
*
Is NON-Abrahamic - We are in NO way based on the covenants of Abraham
or Israel, and have NO connection to Christianity, Islam or Bahai
*
COMPLETELY rejects the Talmud of Judaism as a divine document
originating as the message of God. It is judged that it has been
constructed by individuals motivated by belief in God and a desire to
teach bible based religion, but the idea that it is the direct
message of God as a form of scripture is deemed false.
*
Accepts the Jewish Bible as the Covenant between God and Israel and
acknowledges the faith of this covenant as true, BUT we only accept
for ourselves Genesis 1:1 - 11:9 (What we call the Rainbow Torah) as
the only portion of the Tanakh as binding upon our movement. The
remainder of the Jewish Bible is completely and utterly rejected as
non-binding and largely non-relevant (Yet, in its non-relevance, it
MAY be studied voluntarily by members of the UTA, and aspects of this
faith may be applied individually on a voluntary basis, but not as
official practice of the UTA. This is due to Israel serving as a
light to the nations as taught by the prophet Isaiah). We do NOT
accept specifically Jewish practices as part of our faith, yet it is
acknowledged that the Tanakh also contains messages and religious
principles which are reasonably universal in nature and applicability
and can be studied voluntarily because of it.
*
Does NOT acknowledge the Talmudic 7 law of Noah movement as
representing genuine Noahide faith because they base it on the
relevance of the Jewish Covenant and Talmud, and do not ascribe to
the faith of the Scriptural Noahide Covenant rulings of Genesis 1:1 -
11:9 alone as the absolute judgment of God on Noahide matters. We
DON'T accept Talmudic Noahides as complete Noahides of the true faith
in this respect, but Noahide based and with knowledge of the
covenant.
*
Is completely independent and non-associative with the Abrahamic
covenanted monotheism's because of this, yet an awareness of their
covenants and ways of life is deemed appropriate as, as Isaiah
teaches, Israel serves as a light to the gentile nations, and we may
notice the light and make of it what we will.
Sermon
Fourteen – An Encouragement
To
7DF
To
walk in eternal life won't work unless your heart finds eternal
peace. In kindness, affection and love, but also in caution, prudence
and wisdom, will you find the touchstones of eternity. Befriend all
who will love in truth and peace, be at guard at those who hide their
true motivations behind a shield of deceit. Walk with God and trust
in the power of his Holy Spirit to guide you. Stay in peace and love,
stay in affection from a pure heart towards all those who call on the
name of the Most High God for their eternal salvation. Study the
Rainbow Torah, and rest in its simple wisdom that a heart which
listens to itself will always have the answers to know what to do and
not what to do. Put away tension and strife by relinquishing plans of
pride and grudges of revenge. Repent of your wicked thinking and vain
imaginations. Seek the truth at all times, the true antidote to
delusions and paranoia, and praise God when you know he has been good
and kind to you. Pray - pray for those you love and utter the
scriptures of salvation on their behalf, to sanctify and bless them
and lead them in the road of eternity. Learn to do your work in a
quiet and humble spirit – be a true quiet achiever. Seek glorious
things for your destiny, but seek them with God's approval and be
realistic and what you can achieve and what God is willing to do for
you. Earn your money fairly and squarely and earn your glory fairly
and squarely. Respect your mothers and respect your fathers, and
speak to them with kind words of concern for their well-being,
realizing it can be challenging to be a parent and have to provide
for one's offspring. In your love, let it be generous and graceful,
but don't foist it upon every soul so casually and care-freely, for
many a soul is dry in tone, and many a soul is content just to live
and let live and not get caught up in the airy fairy gospel of free
love, so keep it sober and respectful, and learn that some welcome it
and some would prefer you simply remain civil and respectful. Let
your spirit rest on your family, but don't try and dominate mankind
with your dynasty, as you have to share this world with many others
who are serving the God of truth. Plans need to be considered
carefully, and as said don't base them on pride and arrogant
accomplishment, but have a purpose in them which is of genuine
benefit to yourself and others, and it is a plan which speaks of
wisdom and life and true joy. Get along with your siblings if God has
graced you with them, and if you have burned bridges with them in the
past, if those bridges can be rebuilt with careful devotion, then
have the courage of heart to at least try from time to time. In all
things, do what is right and do what is proper and do what is good,
and if you have doubts seek the Lord in prayer and seek his wisdom in
his word, and may the spirit guide you to success and prosperity and
every good thing. Have faith members of the Seven Divine Fellowships,
and trust in Almighty God our eternal saviour, now and forever,
AMEN.
Sermon
Fifteen – Sarcastic Rebuke
Irresponsible
children, by way of conceit, pride and a sense of self which the
world hath not afforded them verily, think its a great thing to boast
about being saviours of the world and lighting firecrackers in the
hearts and minds of men - in their own vain imaginations. Jesus had a
hell of a go at doing that too. Stepping on the sparks of vain
firebugs who have no real sense of responsibility, other than
ultimately making a buck with their 'Scrolls of Wisdom', is the
responsible and decent thing to do, to get people away from the
cultbuilders who still haven't even accepted Karaite principle to
start with. The Rainbow Torah is the actual faith of mankind, and
while tying up shoelaces may seem trivial, it prevents the soul from
tripping over them in a rush to see the vain glory of firecracker
night some lukewarm singer from the 90s is parading to the world.
Kapiche. I hope you enjoyed that sarcasm directed towards Ms Lisa.
Forgive me. You see playing with shoelaces is the accusation towards
minor spiritualists who don't change the world in any real way,
unlike wise lisa who lights firecrackers – world changers –
because of her obviously divine and omniscient wisdom, culled from
true service as one of the special 'chosen ones'. I'm not buying into
it. All God's people – all human's – have an inner light which
they can set fire into other lives with. We all have that divine
spark, and the mockery of pride against others, belittling them, and
boasting of one's own accomplishments, it really sucks. No real
humility at all in it. Yet, in the end, tie your shoelaces, if that
is all you want to do. Do the very simple things spiritually if you
are no great prophet of hope, for life is tough enough, and just
getting through the day is a job well done for most of us as far as I
am concerned. Don't let people look down on you is the central
message here – don't let people limit you by the spiritual pride
they are filled with, especially as they justify themselves in the
spiritual community they are part of, as if they themselves represent
all the spiritual work of their people. They don't. They are a cog in
a machine, as each of us are in the world we are part of. Don't look
down on people. It's not kind. It belittles them, and is not the
attitude that God has. God has care for all of his creations, which
each of us are, and he wants the best for us all. We don't always
live up to that, or our parents or teaches expectations of what we
are capable of. But, in the end, if we can get to the end of our
days, and say we did the best with what we had, we have done well
enough as far as I am concerned, and in that we can be content and in
that we can find our peace and justification.
Sermon
Sixteen – Success in Music and in Creative Endeavours.
The
successful music acts of the future have songwriting teams of about
500 to 1000 for the big albums from the big artists. That is probably
exaggeration, but not by much. So much music being put out there is
way under produced compared to the level of competition which is
gradually arising in the music industry. To be successful on a major
scale, more production and a bigger team need to work on the
promotion of new albums. There are millions of competitors now, that
the only real way to succeed is to have an enormous team working on
your project. This holds true for the successful video games of the
future also. So many come and go and are forgotten because they have
only so much level of complexity and graphic appeal and general
gameplay. The bigger the production team and the greater their
competence, the better the results. Big blockbuster movies are only
increasing their numbers in respect to this. It is the way of the
future, and a reality in many ways to get a project to successful
recognition and sales. It's not a law – there are plenty of
talented individual's who have studied these forms of culture from
younger years, who have had parents who have pushed them, and have a
keen sense for what the public might light and what will appeal. The
future is still alive for the singer-songwriter. But, in reality, it
is getting tougher and tougher, and success on the large scale and
the global scale will, I feel, become more based on not so much the
extraordinary X Factor talent of the individual, but the talent of
the team which goes into a projects development and production, and
the larger the team which produces the work, with greater input and
wisdom from a multitude of counselors the more likelihood that it
will have a greater and more universal appeal and success because of
it. UTA (and ANM) creators of product should keep this in mind and
work together with others from their assemblies ideally to produce
their works and create a more polished product. Yes, we want to be
creative, and to contribute to our own culture as well as of that of
mankind's, and we are indeed mainstream in focus, not trying to
specialise for just a religious niche audience. We are for everyone
in many ways. Team efforts. Together Everyone Achieves More. That is
how the UTA should focus its talent, and the ANM also, to create a
more accessible product which can have appeal to a much larger
audience. Certainly there is always and always will be a call for
unique products from inspired individuals, but we also live in the
real world with its real economic realities, so multiple creative
talent on projects is definitely the way to go for the UTA and the
ANM.
Sermon
Seventeen - The Advancing Noah Movement of the Seven Divine
Fellowships of Karaite Adamide-Noahide Faith.
The
central idea of the Advancing Noah Movement is that we build upon the
ancient covenant of Noah and the religion of Noah (Genesis 1 - 11:9),
by introducing new and further doctrinal and theological ideas and
viewpoints. We do not limit ourselves to the religious practices of
Noah and his generations, but 'Advance' with the world, introducing
further concepts of morality and holiness. Like Noah walked with God
in his generation, we can also walk with God in ours, and it is
possible for religious idea and spirituality to continue to develop
as mankind also continues to walk on and mature in its ongoing
relationship with God Most High. Our core belief in this, though, is
that our central religious iconography - the actual moral and
religious requirements Noah had to to observe - never change and do
not change, but grow instead and are enlarged. We do not try to do
away with holiness in some sort of 'Progressive' agenda. We keep the
basic principles of holiness but, as the world advances and becomes
more complex, greater constructs of law and morality are obviously
required to rule and run a more sophisticated society. We are built
solidly on the Rainbow Covenant of Noah, stay within the moral bounds
of this Covenant, yet Advance as society does so, developing and
strengthening our moral rules and relationship with Almighty God.
Knowledge sort of has a limit, in practical reality. There is only so
many original English syntax constructs – sentences. Certainly,
originally created Nouns can go on perpetually, but that serves no
real purpose. Realistically there are only so many core ideas in
English, and any language, expressible in a sentence, which can be
used to create paragraphs, chapters and books. Why I am saying this
is that knowledge is somewhat finite in a sense, and thus the
ultimate copyrighted knowledge of the ANM, noting that others claim
copyright also, is ultimately finite and will inevitably come to a
conclusion. And this knowledge also reflects the realities of the
created societal cultures of mankind. Because of this, while we
advance with the eras, the actual knowledge ultimately concludes. It
is probably true that the cultures of mankind will change eternally,
and what was once in fashion goes out of fashion. But it will
inevitably return to fashion one day as well, and because of this the
ANM needs to eventually conclude its knowledge base, and use all its
collective wisdom to adapt to the eras, like we adapt to the hot and
the cold with the changing of the seasons. Yet, in all of this, we
continue to advance, and take on new membership and new spirit in
each generation, till either the world to come advents, or the world
ends and, if not, onwards we go for all eternity by the grace of
Almighty God. AMEN.
Sermon
Eighteen - Wives
If
a man can afford to support more than one wife, its perfectly fine.
For most, one wife is the usual thing economically, but a wealthy man
can afford more than one. It is not vanity or even lust to have more
than one wife, although often it can be for such reasons which one
does choose extra wives. Usually a wife is an ornament of grace from
the Lord, something to treasure, and if you have more than one wife
you are blessed indeed. Treasure the loves of your life which the
Lord gives you, and make them the apple of your eye. They are your
support and strength, as you are theirs, and learn to handle with
wisdom more than one wife, and keep bickering arguments of jealousy
away from their rivalries with each other. Learn to handle each wife
on their own terms, and give each their own respect, authority and
place in the household. Wives should be taught to respect their
husband, but think about that the wife doesn't want a husband who is
dogmatic over her, ordering her around in a boorish manner. And she
certainly doesn't want to be made to feel inferior to other wives. Be
sensitive about this, as women can have great convictions about their
looks and appearances, and saying one wife is better than another
provokes jealousies, but more than that – it hurts feelings. If you
married her because you loved her, don't hurt her feelings. It's
unkind. So promote harmony, togetherness and unity amongst your
wives, and remind them they are part of the same big family. I can't
really comment much on the sexual shenanigans of having more than one
wife in the bed with the husband – that is probably an inevitable
part of many such polygamous marriages. Each man must make the
judgments on this issue for himself. But remember a woman is not
necessarily impressed by bisexual fantasies of the husband between
his wives, so any pressure for such carnal activities should be
seriously considered – and prepared to let go of if necessary. She
deserves her respect for being a woman who desires just a man, as
like a man should be respected also who desires just a woman. Yes,
promote unity and togetherness in large families. Emphasize that you
are a team, of sorts, a unit, which has the best interests of all
family members at heart. Rivalries amongst competing children are
probably unwise, but of course can be a reality of such
relationships. Handle these things, men and women, as maturely and
responsibly as you can and should in fear of the Lord and godly
living. Wives should provide sexual relief for their husbands, and
husbands should offer the same likewise to their wives. If you have
more than one wife ensure each is not neglected and has their time in
the marriage bed. And this should not be once in a blue moon, but
often enough to satisfy her genuine desires on the issue. Maintain
order in your household and expect your wives to set a good example
for the family name. Take care of them, protect them, provide for
them, and ensure their food and clothing and reasonable entertainment
to the best of your ability. In all things let love and grace rule,
and keep peace with your wives, loving them as your own dear
flesh.
Sermon
Nineteen – Walking with God for the whole Earthly sojourn
World
to come realities – in the ANM we don't know for absolutely sure if
there will be a world to come adventing in the future of planet
Earth. The general position we take is that it is acknowledged as a
possibility, but that it probably won't really occur. Life seems to
be set up for perpetual living from generation to generation, as
people are born, live and die and, if they are found worthy, find a
place in the eternal heaven of the afterlife. That is generally the
position we maintain. Prophetical hopes of a future resurrection of
the God may indeed just be the aspirations of the prophets, and till
we know officially any better than that, we maintain that Isaiah and
Jeremiah and Daniel and co hoped for such a reality, but it was
likely wishful thinking. Because of this we have a walk in our lives,
which is lifelong. And that walk, to work out for the best, should
ideally be a walk with God. Walking with Jehovah – Yahweh – in a
lifelong commitment to the principles of godliness that he teaches in
Torah based religion. You really need to be patient in such a walk –
its probably the most difficult thing to learn and stick with. I
think a lot of people who find faith at some point in life often
persevere with it for a while and make vows they'll love the Lord
forever, but unfortunately they fall astray, give up, and go back to
their old worldly ways. It is often called backsliding by
fundamentalist religious groups, and even the term is used in the
Jewish bible to describe the people of Israel at a certain point.
Keeping the faith for whole Earthly sojourn – it's not easy – I
don't think anyone really has ever boasted that it will be or is.
It's a challenge. Perhaps it's meant to be – I can't rightly say.
But it has got to be a challenge worth accepting and facing up to,
because eternity in heaven must surely be a good thing. You have to
learn along the way and continue to learn, and you have to be
prepared to change your ways of life at times, which is sort of what
repentance really is – a change of attitude. God will probably
lecture you spiritually from time to time, and correct some of the
things you might have assumed you could do or get away with. Don't be
stiff necked. Accept these rebukes and corrections, because surely he
loves you if he is willing to correct you. Stick with it –
persevere – and make it more than just the religion you sort of
adhere to. Make it one of the central aspects and points of your life
– achieving heaven and ultimately having a good name with the
creator. It's perseverance, its patience, and it is often difficult,
but there are good times as well. And it has got to be worth it in
the end, hasn't it? I am sure it will be for those who persevere and
go the distance. Walk with God the whole way, and face up to that as
a reality. Give yourself time, ok, to learn how to be a better
person. Some attitudes are going to take time to deal with, and God
is aged and experienced in dealing with people with patience. He is
longsuffering and compassionate as the scriptures say. So make it
your motto to walk with God your whole life, and you will see the
reward for your patience in the fulness of time.
Entertainment
Games of the Universal Truth Assembly
Danzee
7
Six sided dice are needed to play the game. There are 7 rounds of
play. 2 players in a game. Each player has a scoresheet with boxes
numbered 1 to 7 against them. For the first box roll 1 die, and write
down the number in the first box. For the second box roll 2 dice, and
write down the total in the second box. Repeat this, adding 1 die
each time, till all 7 boxes are filled. Players then play 4 battles
to complete the first round. The first player chooses one of his
boxes to battle against the second player. The highest score wins. A
draw is just a draw. Then the second player chooses an unused box and
battles with that. Then its the first players turn again, and finally
the second players second turn. Whoever wins the most battles wins
the round. A drawn round is counted as a draw. After 7 rounds the
winner of the most rounds is winner and shouts 'Danzee'. If even at
the end of 7 rounds it is a draw.
Quadraplex
For
2 to 4 players, with an additional Judge. Choose 4 corners of the
town, village or suburb in which you live. Not too big, maybe a rough
square (called the Quadraplex) of about 1 kilometer squared. Take a
coloured flag with you and assemble the players in the centre of the
Quadraplex. The judge takes the flag and wanders off in any
direction, but when he or she is out of sight has to choose one of
the four corners of the Quadraplex to place the flag in. The flag
needs to be easy to find and should be placed in a familiar place
where the game has been played before. When the judge returns the
players are gathered in the approximate centre of the Quadraplex and
the judge shouts 'Go'. The players then have to find which corner has
the flag, and the winner is the player who returns to the centre with
the flag. A variation of the game is having two flags of different
colours, placed in differing corners and one flag is worth 2 points
and the other flag is worth 1 point. You might play the game after
school, once or twice a week, and you can keep a tally of points
scored for each game, and have a yearly competition, with the annual
winner the one with the most points.
