Kabbalah is known as the oral tradition even though it is said to be recorded now. Some say this goes back to Moses, some say the oral tradition goes back to Abraham and some say this goes back to Adam. The hasidic seem to be the keepers of that tradition right now. They have some of their teaching on YouTube. I have been learning the hebrew language from them. The letters actually have a symbolic meaning. WE can understand the meaning of a word by doing a study on the letters that make up that word. For example if you were to study the word "beginning" in the Bible we see that the Son of God (Ben) was given as a grain offering so that Heaven and Earth could be united. As it is Heaven and Earth are divided. The word and is actually the more important word in this sentence. It is interesting to understand and study the Ancient Hebrew they used back before the tower of Babel when the language was confused.
John, the oral traditions of many cultures turn out to be surprisingly accurate. In some cases there was no written transmission of information but instead a class dedicated to decades of memorising knowledge from their elders.

As interesting as the Hebrew language and roots of our faith are to me-
I would advise caution. Pray and use discernment with Kabbalah. It is bound up with Jewish mysticism.
These are very much traditions of men. If Kabbalah really lead to truth they would have found Yeshua by now.

It is possible in this world to educate yourself stupid. (so to speak )

(ETH) – A newborn baby in England has just tested positive for coronavirus becoming the world’s youngest victim of this dreaded disease. According to a report from the Sun, The child’s mother had reportedly been rushed to a London hospital days earlier with suspected pneumonia where she and the child were treated in separate hospitals.
The mother was tested at North Middlesex Hospital but her positive result was known only after the birth whereas the child was tested within minutes of arrival. The medics there are trying to figure out whether the child was infected during birth, or contracted the virus in the womb. The report indicates that the baby us reaming at the hospital while the mother has been moved to a specialist infections hospital.
A source said: “Staff in contact with both patients has been advised to self-isolate. Health officials are urgently trying to find out the circumstances behind their infections.” The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has advised that healthy babies should not be separated from infected mothers and can be breastfed. Health officials also stressed that pregnant women and babies are at low risk of complications from the virus and most will have mild symptoms.
This comes as concern grows as the UK death toll from coronavirus has risen to 11 with yesterday’s confirmed cases up 208 to 798, the largest daily leap yet. Also, Wales today announced another 22 cases, bringing its total to 60 – and the overall UK figure to 820. In the past 24 hours, the UK has seen an enormous 35 percent increase in cases.

Even worse. It is bound up with occultism, evil spirits, ad Satan. The pentagram and hexagram are kabbalistic.
:devilish: Par for the course with mysticism, Jewish or otherwise. I was trying to be a bit gentle though.

Hi,

We are all concerned about this new virus and I want to share some info. I have no interest in this product beyond its benefits
Coronavirus and norovirus are similar, and according to info online, norovirus, colds and flu can be killed by Oregano oil. --- It may be a deterrent to all viruses. --- Check out the uses and benefits of Oregano Oil online, there is a lot that can be studied.

Quote: Carvacrol, the primary active component in oregano oil, effectively kills norovirus, a common cause of food-borne illness in hospitals, schools, and cruise ships. The compound works by breaking down the tough outer coat of the virus, which is the leading cause of vomiting and diarrhea around the world.
The oil of oregano is taken by mouth for intestinal parasites, allergies, sinus pain, arthritis, cold and flu, swine flu, earaches, and fatigue. (And one list included e-coli.)
Place 1–3 drops of this dilution under the tongue, hold it there for a few minutes, then flush with water. --- Swallowed: If you're taking the oregano oil orally, you can put a few drops of it into a cup (237 ml) of water, gargle and then swallow.

--- On my bottle of Oregano Oil, which comes with a dropper, it says ‘take five drops a day,’ which can be taken in a cup of water. It may not taste the best but it doesn’t linger. I have started to take it early in the morning in my usual cup of hot (boiled) water, before I take other medications.
The Scripture says that “In the last days perilous times will come,” --- There will be “Famines, earthquakes, pestilences,” --- and ‘pestilences’ can mean ‘infectious diseases.’ --- If we can use a home remedy to perhaps build up resistance, --- as well as wash our hands frequently, so that they are clean when we touch our face, or food, we will be doing what we can to help ourselves, and hopefully others. Blessings

I did not even understand Kabbalah until I had been a Christian for 40 years. Mostly I am interested in learning the Hebrew Language. They get into trying to explain a lot of different symbols but I am not interested into getting into all of that. Also they add to the law of Moses and Jesus teaches that JUST to follow Moses is enough. We do not need to add further burdens to people.

I have no idea why every 5 seconds a child under 5 dies.
The Bible says that people perish for lack of knowledge and understanding. They do not know the deliverance that is available to them.

Nope, I meant Moses too. :) He was a good teacher. Was that because he had good teachers? (I don't think so) Or was it because he spent a lot of time with God, away from the people, getting his information straight from the source? (<--that's what I'm going with)
"He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, will reveal Myself to him in a vision; I will speak to him in a dream. not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house. 8I speak with him face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you unafraid to speak against My servant Moses?”" (numbers12:6,7)

Moses went off by himself and fasted for 40 days. We are told that God would speak to him face to face. The only person that can add to what we receive from Moses is Jesus.

One of the things on my weekly shopping list was bathroom soap. Not as a panic buy or a hoarding exercise, just that the liquid handwash in my bathroom was nearly empty. In two major supermarkets, some of the shelves were empty of anti-bacterial soap.
There was plenty of plain soap handwash on stock of which I bought one, no worries.

So it looks like people are hoarding anti-bacterial soap but not plain soap. I don't think anti-bacterial soap is any better than plain soap for washing Covid-19 off hands because it's a virus not a bacteria. The main thing is to wash your hands.

Although I don't particularly understand how #5 or #6 are particularly obvious, I very much appreciate your post. There is a lot of value to be gained through your points in 1-3. I specifically say those 3 because those have to do with our own behaviors and trusts, rather than what someone else is/isn't doing.

Thanks for reading and posting.

Love in Jesus,

its weird how people are laying blame on China when they are actually being their own worst enemy.
ok if you want to depict China as the enemy but Jesus says love your enemy and you will heap hot coals on their head.

China for centuries didnt even want to trade with the outside world its was its own contained kingdom. Now it has opened up somewhat but that wasnt before the British tried to drug them with opium so it could so they could steal all their silkworms! so who is calling kettle black? How can they actually trust the people buying all their products?

not the little children under 5 that are dying, I suspect most are not of natural causes either.

Regular soap will kill the virus.
Good Graphic in this article explains why.

I wasn't blaming other countries for our weaknesses. My suggestion is to look at ourselves as the cause of our problems. If we don't like our reliance on other countries (such as China), then we should re-learn how to take responsibility for our own concerns. :)

I just read Jeremiah 17 yesterday. I'd opened my bible and my eyes fell first on that verse. (not thinking that was coincidence.)

You may also appreciate reading Isaiah 24, 25 and 26. I used to know how to explain the relationship of each chapter to the other but 24 is basically how it looks from the world's perspective. 25 is what it looks like from a PROTECTED God's child perspective. 26 is kind of what the situation looks like from God's perspective. And I'm sure you'll notice the similarity between Isaiah 26:3 and Jeremiah 17:7.

Love in Jesus,
Kelby
