COMBINATION OF THE SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY AND THE RARE FRUIT TREES AND VEGETABLES.   With the Scripture of the Day first.
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Tuesday]
 
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14  Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.  Matthew 7:13 – 14, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
The Apostle Matthew continues on and warns against the false prophets who seek to mislead and corrupt us at Matthew 7:15 – 20, [AV] “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16  Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18  A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”  The Apostle John makes it clear how you can identify the genuine true followers of Jesus (Yeshua) at John 13:35, [AV] “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.”  Also, the Apostle Luke stressed this same truth at Acts 10:35, [AV] “But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.”

THE RARE FRUIT TREES AND VEGETABLES:
 
Here is a Commentary on Bountiful Trees and Vegetables God (YHWH) has provided for mankind, specifically the Lovi Lovi, Flacourtia inermis (Batoko Plum) Plant.
 
The fruit is a shinny brilliant red berry crowned with a black top.
 
The tree is cultivated in South Eastern Asia for its fruit which varies greatly in taste whitish-pinkish flesh.  Most fruits are too acidic to be eaten raw, but they are often made into chutneys, puddings, and preserves – WITH THE SEED REMOVED. 
 
The tree is often used as a decorative or shade tree.  Unfortunately there is very little literature on this tree.
 
In Genesis 1:11-13, "And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit-trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after their kind: and God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day. (American Standard Version, ASV)[for more details, go to  www.jw.org].

How this tree and other plants absorb water from the ground.   Plants have developed an effective system to absorb, translocate, store, and utilize water.  Plants contain a vast network of conduits, which consists of xylem and phloem tissues.  These conducting tissues start in the roots and continue up through the trunks of trees, into the branches and then into every leaf.  Phloem tissue is made of living elongated cells that are connected to one another and responsible for translocating nutrients and sugars (carbohydrates), which are produced by leaves for energy and growth.  The xylem is also composed of elongated cells but once the cells are formed, they die.  The walls of the xylem cells still remain intact and serve as an excellent peipline to transport water from the roots to the leaves.
 
The main driving force of water uptake and transport into a plant is transpiration of water from leaves through specialized openings called stomata.  Heat from the sun causes the water to evaporate, setting this ‘water chain’ in motion.  The evaporation creates a negative water vapor pressure.  Water is pulled into the leaf to replace the water that has transpired from the leaf.  This pulling of water, or tension, occurs in the xylem of the leaf.  Since the xylem is a continuous water column that extends from the leaf to the roots, this negative water pressure extends into the roots and results in water uptake from the soil.  [adapted from: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=follow-up-how-do-trees-ca ]
 
Clearly this clever water transport system shows a superior intelligence of the Creator (YHWH).

PART 2
 
IS RAPE IMPLIED?
 
Exactly, where does the passage refer to rape?  True it does speak about killing, true it does speak about the spoil, but where does it speak about rape?    IN fact there is no where in the Torah where actual rape is legalized with the law-code.   In fact, an as an Israelite who is attracted to a captive women, had to allow her time to grief and marry her, before any sexual relationship took place per Deuteronomy 21: 10-14, " When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and Jehovah thy God delivereth them into thy hands, and thou carriest them away captive, 11 and seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife; 12 then thou shalt bring her home to thy house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails; 13 and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife. 14 And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her." (ASV).   Probably many women were married away in this manner, perhaps all, but marriage was certainly demanded.
 
THE BIBLE REQUIRES MATRIMONY BEFORE RELATIONS WITH CAPTIVE:
 
Islam legalized the raping of slaves without any consideration of marriage, and in fact these women were according to Islamic sources sold on the slave market after the whole event.    This is strange as the Quran says at Sura 29:46, "Do not argue with the people of the scripture (Jews, Christians, and Muslims) except in the nicest possible manner - unless they transgress - and say, "We believe in what was revealed to us and in what was revealed to you, and our god and your god is one and the same; to Him we are submitters." (An Authorized English Version, Translated from the original by Dr. Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D.; RK).    Which clearly shows that Muslims should deal kindly with Jews and Christians.   This is made clear at Sura 10:94, "If you have any doubt regarding what is revealed to you from your Lord, then ask those who read the previous scripture. Indeed, the truth has come to you from your Lord. Do not be with the doubters." (RK).
 
QURAN DOES NOT REQUIRE MATRIMONY BEFORE RELATIONS WITH CAPTIVE AND CONTRADICTS ITSELF:
 
Let's look at what the Quran has to say on the subject.   First consider Sura 23:5-6, "And they maintain their chastity.   [23:6] Only with their spouses, or those who are rightfully theirs, do they have sexual relations; they are not to be blamed."  (RK) where the Quran seems to require that one have only sexual relations with his own wife.   And this is emphasized Sura 4:24, "Prohibited for you (in marriage) are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, the sisters of your fathers, the sisters of your mothers, the daughters of your brother, the daughters of your sister, your nursing mothers, the girls who nursed from the same woman as you, the mothers of your wives, the daughters of your wives with whom you have consummated the marriage - if the marriage has not been consummated, you may marry the daughter. Also prohibited for you are the women who were married to your genetic sons. Also, you shall not be married to two sisters at the same time - but do not break up existing marriages. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful." (RK).
 
However, According to Tabari vol.39, p.194 the ruler of Alexandria gave a young Christian girl as a gift to Muhammad, her name was Mariyam. Muhammad never married her but he used to sleep with her, and she even gave birth to a son who died after 18 months..
 
According to Sahih Bukhari vol.5#637 Ali had sex with a slave girl whom he saw and found beautiful, and Muhammad seemed to have no objections.
 
Narrated Buraida: The prophet sent Ali to Khalid to bring the Khumus (part of the war booty) and I hated Ali, and Ali had taken a bath (after a sexual act with a slave girl from the Khumus). I said to Khalid, "Don't you see this (i.e. Ali)? When we reached the prophet I mentioned that to him. He said, "O Buraida! Do you hate Ali?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Do you hate him for he deserves more than that from the Khumus." (Sahih Bukhari, vol.5, #637)
 
Now, let's be realistic, what is sex with a slave else but rape, I mean, what choice has she anyway?
 
MOHAMMAD ON RAPE OF FEMALE CAPTIVES:
 
According to Sahih Bukhari vol.9#506; Sahih Muslim vol.2#3371 Muhammad's followers used to come to Muhammad after battles, to seek permission and advise to engage in sexual activity with the girls taken in battle. They doubted for several reasons, however, permission was granted.
 
At one point Muhammad gave them permission and told them that it is up to Allah who gets created anyway, thus permission was given.
 
Permission from the Quran:
 
This fact is clearly shown in the Quran at Sura 33:50, "O prophet, we made lawful for you your wives to whom you have paid their due dowry, or what you already have, as granted to you by GOD. Also lawful for you in marriage are the daughters of your father's brothers, the daughters of your father's sisters, the daughters of your mother's brothers, the daughters of your mother's sisters, who have emigrated with you. Also, if a believing woman gave herself to the prophet - by forfeiting the dowry - the prophet may marry her without a dowry, if he so wishes. However, her forfeiting of the dowry applies only to the prophet, and not to the other believers. We have already decreed their rights in regard to their spouses or what they already have. This is to spare you any embarrassment. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful." (RK).
 
Doubt due to fear of less money for selling pregnant slaves:
 
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri that while he was sitting with Allah's messenger we said, "Oh Allah's messenger, we got female captives as our booty, and we are interested in their prices, what is your opinion about coitus interruptus?" The prophet said, "Do you really do that? It is better for you not to do it. No soul that which Allah has destined to exist, but will surely come into existence." (Sahih Bukhari, vol.3, # 432) (further reference Bukhari Vol. 3, #718)
 
About pregnancy:
 
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri that during the battle with Bani Al-Mustaliq they (Muslims) captured some females and intended to have sexual relations with them without impregnating them. So they asked the prophet about coitus interruptus. The prophet said, "It is better that you should not do it, for Allah has written whom He is going to create till the Day of Resurrection". (Sahih Bukhari, vol.9, #506) (further reference Bukhari 5: 459)
 
Lust or ransom:
 
Abu Sirma said to Abu Said al Khudri: "O Abu Said, did you hear Allah's messenger mentioning about al-azl (coitus interrupts)?" He said, "Yes", and added: "We went out with Allah's messenger on the expedition to the Mustaliq and took captive some excellent Arab women; and we desired them for we were suffering from the absence of our wives, (but at the same time) we also desired ransom for them. So we decided to have sexual intercourse with them but by observing azl" (withdrawing the male sexual organ before emission of semen to avoid conception). But we said: "We are doing an act whereas Allah's messenger is amongst us; why not ask him?" So we asked Allah's messenger and he said: "It does not matter if you do not do it, for every soul that is to be born up to the Day of Resurrection will be born". (Sahih Muslim vol.2, # 3371)
 
Doubts since their men were polytheists:
 
Abu Said al-Khudri reported that at the Battle of Hunain Allah's messenger sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's messenger seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that: "And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (Quran - 4:24), (i.e. they were lawful for them when their Idda (menstrual) period came to and end). (Sahih Muslim, vol.2, #3432)
 
Doubt since their husbands watch them being raped:
 
Abu Said al-Khudri said: "The apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the apostle of Allah were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Quranic verse, "And all married women (are forbidden) unto your save those (captives) whom your right hand possesses". That is to say, they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period."" [The Quran verse is 4:24]. (Sunan of Abu Dawud, vol.2, #2150)
 
CONCLUSION:
 
In Islam you are allowed to have female slaves and you are allowed to have sex with them despite having up to four marriage partners. In a Christian and even Mosaic context that is called rape and adultery.
 
In Islam you are permitted to have sex with the female captives after a battle, again I ask which age groups? Well Muhammad's youngest wife was nine years old.
 
But consider the situation here, these women have lost homes, husbands, family, everything (except of course for Sunan of Abu Dawud, there they are raped in the presence of their male captives, and husbands) and now they are exposed to further attrocities that of being raped by the same men who killed and butchered their males, on the same battlefield.
 
In the Mosaic law things were similar, but there was clear guidance given, that these women in case of sexual relationship should be given a time to grief and then be married before any sexual relationship would take place.
 
That is not what we see here! Sahih Muslim vol.2, # 3371 clearly revealed that after the mass-rape they would be sold at the slave market as female slaves and then the terror would continue.
 
Let's face it, the Bible NEVER condoned rape as does the Quran and did Muhammad.   It did however encourage a rapist to make matters right with his victim and required the solution to be marriage; whereas, the Quran and Muhammad do/did NOT.

[1] SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Friday]
 
And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.  40  But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.  41  And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:  42  But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.   Luke 10:39 – 42, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
While Martha was a hard working women striving to prepare a meal for Jesus (Yeshua) whom she loved as a great teacher, But, he said to her, Luke 10:38 – 42, [AV] “Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.  39  And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.  40  But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.  41  And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:  42  But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” 
 
Here Martha was distracted by house work, but Jesus (Yeshua) knew she needed to listen to his teachings as her sister Mary was doing as this would be more beneficial than a finally prepared literal meal.  Mary, for her part, had determined that a spiritual feast held the greatest importance.  Martha needed the spiritual food that Jesus (Yeshua) was dispensing, and needed to give Him her undivided attention just as her sister Mary was giving.

[2]  A MUSLIM APOLOGIES HOWwash UNTRUE MISLEADING CRAP:
 
Since then, 48 people have been killed by extremists who are not Muslim, compared to 26 killed by people who claimed to be jihadist. The non-Muslim groups include right-wing, anti-government organizations and white-supremacist groups.  [[REALITY, MUSLIMS HAVE KILLED WELL OVER 3,000 PEOPLE IN THE USA SINCE 2000.  NO OTHER RELIGION HAS HAD ANY RADICALIZED MEMBER KILL ANYONE.  WHY?  NO OTHER RELIGION HAS HAD ANY MEMBER RADICALIZED.  ALL KILLINGS OTHER THAN RADICALIZED MUSLIMS HAVE BEEN DONE BY MENTAL CASES]]
 
He went on to say,
 
Last week’s Charleston shooting — after which reports surfaced of the confessed shooter’s white-supremacist ideology — was included in the count.[[NOT DIRECTED BY ANY RELIGION]]
 
Other attacks, like the massacres in Aurora, Colorado and Newtown, Connecticut, were not included, since they do not appear to have been caused by a specific ideology, the standard used by New America Foundation to qualify terrorism.
 
This information may shock the public, as post-9/11 trauma has made jihadi terror attacks more prominent in the media, but US law enforcement is well aware of the danger of white extremist groups, the New York Times reported.[[BUT THEY ARE NOT RELIGIOUS GROUPS; WHEREAS, RADICALIZED MUSLIMS ARE.]]
 
A recent survey done by researchers at the University of North Carolina and Duke University asked 382 US police departments to list top threats and 74 per cent listed anti-government violence, while just 39 per cent said “Al Qaeda-inspired” violence.
 
“Law enforcement agencies around the country have told us the threat from Muslim extremists is not as great as the threat from right-wing extremists,” Charles Kurzman, a UNC researcher, told the Times.[[NOT SO, JUST ASK THE NEW YORK CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT, THE LARGEST POLICE DEPARTMENT IN NORTH AMERICA.]]

Now let’s look at Muslim atrocities against others elsewhere:
Muslims murdered in genocides over 80 to 100 million Hindus in greater India.
<<{… The Muslim conquests, down to the 16th century, were for the Hindus a pure struggle of life and death. Entire cities were burnt down and the populations massacred, with hundreds of thousands killed in every campaign, and similar numbers deported as slaves. Every new invader made (often literally) his hills of Hindus skulls. Thus, the conquest of Afghanistan in the year 1000 was followed by the annihilation of the Hindu population; the region is still called the Hindu Kush, i.e. Hindu slaughter. The Bahmani sultans (1347-1480) in central India made it a rule to kill 100,000 captives in a single day, and many more on other occasions. The conquest of the Vijayanagar empire in 1564 left the capital plus large areas of Karnataka depopulated. And so on.
According to some calculations, the Indian (subcontinent) population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate).}>> [sourc - retrieved fromhttp://www.danielpipes.org/comments/29320 on 2/13/2015]
 
The attempted extinction of the Yazidis, a monotheistic group, by members of Islam recently.
<<{ the threat of extermination posed against the Yazidis, a religious minority driven out of its ancestral home by the Islamic State of self-styled Caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.}>>
 
One of many attempt by Islam to wipe out Buddhism.
<<{ In 1200 Muhammad Khilji, one of Qutb-ud-Din's generals destroyed monasteries fortified by the Sena armies, such as the one at Vikramshila. Many monuments of ancient Indian civilization were destroyed by the invading armies, including Buddhist sanctuaries[45] near Benares. Buddhist monks who escaped the massacre fled to Nepal, Tibet and South India }>>
 
The attempted extinction of the Zoroastrians by Islam.
<<{.. Suffering of the Zoroastrians during the rule of Shah Abbas the Great ( 1587 -1628A.D .) in particular was intensified. The eastern and Pahlavi philosophy had been revived and gained momentum. He was determined to crash the movement at root The followers of Darvish Mahmood Passikhani who were called Ajamiyoun (Persians) and believed that the Arab era is over and the new Persian period is to begin were massacred. Shah Abbas personally executed several of their leaders. His serious concern about the Pahlavi philosophy and reversion caused him to carry a harsh anti Zoroastrian policy. In a letter dated Bahman Rooz, Ardibehesht Mah,1 005 Yazdgardi (1015 Hijri), the Zarthushtis of Sharifabad, Yazd wrote to the Parsis of India: "In the year 977 Yazdgardi (987 Hijri) the agents of Shah Abbas came to Yazd to confiscate our religious books. They murdered two Mobeds who refused to surrender them. In Turkabad many Mobeds who refused to surrender the books were killed. The agents plundered and destroyed many scriptures here.” Professor Zabih Behtooz writes, "Shah Abbas executed many intellectuals and Zoroastrians under the pretext of atheism.”}>> [sourc - retrieved fromhttp://zorost.blogspot.com/ on 2/13/2015] 
 
The attempted extinction of the Buddhist by Islam.
<<{ Genocidal Islamic Jihad blamed for the extinction of Buddhism in India … The Buddhist regions of Afghanistan and Western Punjab fell rapidly to the Islamic crusaders as did the far flung regions of predominantly Buddhist East Bengal. The story of Central Asia was repeated with the destruction of great Buddhist centres like at Nalanda and the slaying of their organised priesthood leaving a confused and leaderless populace.}>> [sourc - retrieved from http://www.goddiscussion.com/…/genocidal-islamic-jihad-bla…/ on 2/13/2015] 
 
SO NOW IT IS CLEAR THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO BLAME OTHERS FRO WHAT THEY ARE GUILTY OF – RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE, MURDER, AND GENOCIDE AND TO USE THE MURDER OF 3 MUSLIMS BY A NUT IN A RAGE OVER A PARKING SPACE AS THE EXCUSE.

ALSO,
 
With respect to what one north American politician said on Muslims, Mort Klein. The President of the Zionist Organizations of America said, “…rationalize Trump’s position saying, ‘Few people would oppose Hindus or Buddists or Christians coming to America, but Hindus or Buddhist or Christians are not saying or doing things that threaten people’s lives, Muslims are.’” [sourc - retrieved from  Jewish Journal, Palm Beach North, page 5, December 23, 2015}.
 
And, he said, “In addition, according to a 2007 poll cited in the article, “Opposing Syrian Muslim Refugees is a Jewish value,” a staggering 77% of Syrians support Hamas, a terrorist organization, whose Charter calls for murdering every Jew.  Hamas trainers and trainees, who are in Syria, may very well enter the United States as Syrian “refugees.”
…Syrian Muslims are indoctrinated from an early age to celebrate martyrdom, act violently towards “enemies” and hate Jews and Israel.  A chilling recent study of Syrian textbooks found vicious anti-Semitic teachings….
 
San Bernardino terrorist specifically targeted and killed a pro-Israel Messianic Jewish co-worker, Nicholas Thalasinos.  According to the victim’s friend, Farook had been threatening Nicholas, “telling him that Islam will rule the world, that Christians and Jews deserve to dic, and that he (Nicholas) was going to die.” [sourc - retrieved from  Jewish Journal, Palm Beach North, page 10, December 23, 2015}.
 
CONCLUSION – MY TAKE ON THIS MUSLIM APOLOGIST HOGwash CRAP:
 
FIRST, NOW WHAT OTHER RELIGION HAS BEEN SO VIOLENT THROUGHOUT ITS HISTORY?  HINT, NONE.  THEY HAVE BEEN VIOLENT FROM THEIR BEGINNING AND MAKE LAUGHABLE FALSE CLAIMS SUCH AS “EVERYONE IS BORN A MUSLIM,” WHICH IS PATENTLY ABSURD TO THE EXTREME.  TO LEARN MORE, GO TO  http://w11.zetaboards.com/ReligiousTruths/topic/7631102/1/#new 
 
TWO, MENTAL CASES IN THE USA HAVE BY CONTRAST ONLY KILLED ABOUT 1,000 PEOPLE; WHEREAS, MEMBERS OF ISLAM, FOR RELIGIOUS REASONS, HAVE KILLED WELL OVER 3,000 PEOPLE IN THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME.
 
THIRD, MANY MEMBERS OF ISLAM WANT SHARIA LAW (UNJUST LAW) IMPLEMENTED AND THE QURAN SPECIFICALLY REQUIRES WHEN THEY GET IN COMMAND TO TAX OTHERS FOR NOT BEING MEMBERS OF THEIR RELIGION (OR TO KILL THEM), FOR DETAILS, GO TO SURAS 9:28 – 30 IN ANY QURAN AND READ IT FOR YOUR SELF.
 
FOURTH, THEY FORM MUSLIM RAPE GANGS IN MANY COUNTRIES TO RAPE NONE MEMBERS.  TO READ THE PROOF, GO TO THE FOLLOWING:

FIFTH, THEY CLAIM OTHERS ARE ISLAMPHOBIC, BUT REALITY TELLS A DIFFERENT STORY.  WHY?  THIS TERM IS A MISNOMER SINCE A PHOBIA IS AN UNREASONABLE AND/OR IMAGINARY FEAR; WHEREAS, WITH RESPECT ISLAM, IT IS A VERY REAL AND PRESENT DANGER.  TO WIT, NO ONE EVER LOST HIS HEAD TO A PHOBIA, BUT MANY HAVE BEEN BEHEADED BY ISLAM, BEEN BLOWN UP BY THEIR SUICIDE BOMBERS, AND LOST THEIR LIVES BY MANY OTHER WICKED ACTS OF WICKED ISLAM.
 
SIXTH, THEY CLAIM OTHERS ARE RACIST, BUT REALITY SHOWS THAT MEMBERS OF ISLAM ARE THE MOST BIGOTED, RACIST, DISCRIMINATING OF ALL, EVEN WANTING IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND OTHER COUNTRIES STATE SUPPORTED MUSLIM FAITH BASED SCHOOLS ONLY FOR MUSLIMS.
 
SEVENTH, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR ALL RELIGIONS TO BE TRUE.      IN OTHER WORDS, IF ISLAM IS ESSENTIALLY TRUE, THEN BUDDHISM, HINDUISM AND CHRISTIANITY ARE NOT.  IF BUDDHISM IS ESSENTIALLY TRUE, THEN ISLAM, CHRISTIANITY AND HINDUISM ARE NOT.  AND SO ON.       HOW CAN I SAY SUCH A THING?  BECAUSE IF YOU *REALLY* STUDY THESE RELIGIONS, IT WILL BECOME CLEAR THAT EACH MAKES BOLD, FUNDAMENTAL ASSERTIONS ABOUT REALITY THAT ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE OTHERS.

[1]  SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Sunday]
 
16  All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17  That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.  2 Timothy 3:16 – 17, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
Almighty God (YHWH) gave mankind the gift of language so they could pray to Him and give Him praise.  Psalms 40:5, [AV] “Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us–ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.”  Which high-lights the wonderful gifts He has given mankind. 
 
In fact Psalms 92:5, shows how in-depth this gifts, [AV] “O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.”  Which clearly shows His thoughts go very deep.  This same thought is amplified at Psalms 139:17, [AV] “How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!”

[2]  Timeline of Creation of the Universe:
 
BEFORE CREATION BEGAN:
 
At first God (YHWH) was all alone as he always existed, i.e., had no beginning.   Simple Biblical fact, At one time, God (YHWH) was the only being that existed.   The universe, the angels, and all else did NOT EXIST.    Then God (YHWH) started creating as recorded at Revelation 4:11, "Worthy art thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power: for thou didst create all things, and because of thy will they were, and were created." (American Standard Version; ASV); and Psalms 148:1-6, "Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens: Praise him in the heights. 2 Praise ye him, all his angels: Praise ye him, all his host. 3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: Praise him, all ye stars of light. 4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens. 5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah; For he commanded, and they were created. 6 He hath also established them for ever and ever: He hath made a decree which shall not pass away." (ASV); and Hebrews 3:4, "For every house is builded by some one; but he that built all things is God." (ASV).    So all EXCEPT GOD (YHWH) was created, and that would include his only begotten Son, Jesus (Yeshua).
 
In other words is of course is per Psalms 83:18, "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth."
 
SECOND PERIOD:
 
God (YHWH) out of love which is his primary attribute per 1 John 4:8, "He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love" (Authorized King James Bible; AV) so he started creating.   His first creation was his beloved only begotten Son that we now know as Jesus (Yeshua) Christ per Colossians 1:15, " Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:" (AV); and Revelations 3:14, "And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans F1 write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;" (AV).
 
He used this beloved only begotten Son, then known as Wisdom, but now after his incarnation as a human known as Jesus (Yeshua) as his master worker per Proverbs 8:22-31, "Jehovah possessed me in the beginning of his way, Before his works of old. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Before the earth was. 24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth, When there were no fountains abounding with water. 25 Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills was I brought forth; 26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the beginning of the dust of the world. 27 When he established the heavens, I was there: When he set a circle upon the face of the deep, 28 When he made firm the skies above, When the fountains of the deep became strong, 29 When he gave to the sea its bound, That the waters should not transgress his commandment, When he marked out the foundations of the earth; 30 Then I was by him, [as] a master workman; And I was daily [his] delight, Rejoicing always before him, 31 Rejoicing in his habitable earth; And my delight was with the sons of men." (ASV).  Clearly showing that he had been created before God (YHWH) started his creation of all else.   This is clearly shown by, ", "Jehovah possessed me in the beginning of his way, Before his works of old. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Before the earth was.." ; and by, "25 Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills was I brought forth;" clearly showing that his Father, Almighty God (YHWH) had brought him forth and/or created him before all else.   Therefore he could say, "When he established the heavens, I was there:"
 
That is why Jesus (Yeshua) could say at John 8:58, "Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was born, I am.." (ASV) so Jesus (Yeshua) could say he existed before Abraham, but the religious leaders could not accept this.   Why?   Because it contradicted their strongly held creedal beliefs!   
 
God (YHWH) as shown in Proverbs and reiterated at Colossians 1:16-17, "for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him; 17 and he is before all things, and in him all things consist." (ASV) as his master worker, harkening back to Proverbs 8:22-31 previously quoted.   Thus, Paul could say at Colossians 1:18, "And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence." (ASV).   Why was this?   The Bible explains because it pleased his Father, God Almighty (YHWH) as Colossians 1:19, "For it was the good pleasure [of the Father] that in him should all the fulness dwell;" (ASV).   As can be readily seen, he was not only made the first of creation by his Father, God (YHWH), but the first in everything including the first to be resurrected to heaven.
 
This fact, that God (YHWH), his Father, used him as his master worker is further highlighted at John 1:2-4, "The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men." (ASV), note the fact that, "all things were made through him," which once more harkens back to Proverbs 8:22-31 previously quoted.  The beginning here likewise refers to the beginning of the creation of all else after he created Jesus (Yeshua), and not to a beginning for God (YHWH) as he always existed, and therefore had no beginning as clearly shown at Psalms 90:2, "Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God." (ASV); and Psalms 93:2, "Thy throne is established of old: Thou art from everlasting" (ASV), and 1 Timothy 1:17, "Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, [be] honor and glory forever and ever. Amen." (ASV).
.
Because he is the only begotten Son of God, and therefore like any son would be a lot like any son would be a lot like his Father, Almighty God; to wit, in heaven a spirit being, it can be said that all fullness of the divine quality dwells in him or as commonly rendered in English, Godhead bodily, per Colossians 2:9, "for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily," (ASV).   That is why at Isaiah 9:6 in ancient Hebrew the term 'El Gib-Bohr' or mighty god was applied to Jesus (Yeshua), and NOT "El Shaddi,' God Almighty which is applied to his Father, Almighty God (YHWH) at Genesis 17:1.   Therefore, there is no violation of Exodus 20:3, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." (ASV) since Jesus (Yeshua) is NOT a god before and/or equal to his Father, Almighty God (YHWH) [El Shaddi in ancient Hebrew].   Of course the fact that Jesus (Yeshua) is a deity is to be expected due to who his Father (YHWH) is, who always has existed unlike his son which follows.

[1]  SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [Tuesday]
 
Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it. 20  To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.  Jeremiah 6:19 – 20, [authorized King James Bible; AV]
 
Whereas, James 1:21 – 27 clearly shows how we must live our lives to be pleasing to Almighty God (YHWH), [AV] “Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 22  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23  For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24  For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25  But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. 26  If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain. 27  Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”

[2]  ALL WHO SEEK TO LIVE GODLY LIVES WILL BE TESTED:
 
All who seek to be true footstep followers of Jesus (Yeshua) Christ today will be continually tested by the workers of iniquity, the religious creed list, just as their master was in his day on earth. This was testified to by Jesus (Yeshua) at John 15:20, "Remember the word that I said to you, 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also." (RSV).
 
OR as one individual so well put it:
 
Fact...jesus was the son of god
 
Fact...religous people did not believe it.
 
Fact...they found god in the way and not on the way.
 
Now let's look at how they tested Jesus (Yeshua) to get an idea of how this same type would test His footstep followers of today.
 
Matthew 16:1-4 , "And the Pharisees and Sad'ducees came, and to test him they asked him to show them a sign from heaven. 2 He answered them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.' 3 And in the morning, 'It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. 4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah." So he left them and departed." (Revised Standard Version; RSV).
 
Matthew 22:15-22 , " Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how to entangle him in his talk. 16 And they sent their disciples to him, along with the Hero'di-ans, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are true, and teach the way of God truthfully, and care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men. 17 Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?" 18 But Jesus, aware of their malice, said, "Why put me to the test, you hypocrites? 19 Show me the money for the tax." And they brought him a coin. 20 And Jesus said to them, "Whose likeness and inscription is this?" 21 They said, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." 22 When they heard it, they marveled; and they left him and went away." (RSV).
 
Matthew 22:34-40, " But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sad'ducees, they came together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, to test him. 36 "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?" 37 And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets." (RSV).
 
Mark 8:10-12, " And he sent them away; and immediately he got into the boat with his disciples, and went to the district of Dalmanu'tha. 11 The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, to test him. 12 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation." (RSV).
 
Mark 10:2-9, "And Pharisees came up and in order to test him asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" 3 He answered them, "What did Moses command you?" 4 They said, "Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to put her away." 5 But Jesus said to them, "For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment. 6 But from the beginning of creation, 'God made them male and female.' 7 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, 8 and the two shall become one flesh.' So they are no longer two but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder." (RSV).
 
Mark 12:13-17, "And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Hero'di-ans, to entrap him in his talk. 14 And they came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are true, and care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? 15 Should we pay them, or should we not?" But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, "Why put me to the test? Bring me a coin, and let me look at it." 16 And they brought one. And he said to them, "Whose likeness and inscription is this?" They said to him, "Caesar's." 17 Jesus said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they were amazed at him." (RSV).
 
Mark 10:25-28, "And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Hero'di-ans, to entrap him in his talk. 14 And they came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are true, and care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? 15 Should we pay them, or should we not?" But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, "Why put me to the test? Bring me a coin, and let me look at it." 16 And they brought one. And he said to them, "Whose likeness and inscription is this?" They said to him, "Caesar's." 17 Jesus said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they were amazed at him." (RSV).
 
John 8:3-11, "The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst 4 they said to him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. 5 Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such. What do you say about her?" 6 This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. 7 And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her." 8 And once more he bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. 9 But when they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the eldest, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. 10 Jesus looked up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" 11 She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again." (RSV).
 
But these workers of iniquity who continue to test and try to entrap Jesus' (Yeshua's) true footstep followers just as they did Jesus (Yeshua) in his day should bear in mind,
 
1 Corinthians 3:11-15, "For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw-- 13 each man's work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. 14 If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. 15 If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire." (RSV).
 
1 Corinthians 10:6-11, " Now these things are warnings for us, not to desire evil as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to dance." 8 We must not indulge in immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day. 9 We must not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did and were destroyed by serpents; 10 nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer. 11 Now these things happened to them as a warning, but they were written down for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come." (RSV).
