Facts Versus Spiritual Truth

_________________________

In the Christian Identity awakening, there appears, at least to this adherent, an emphasis on facts but a lack of truth.

That is, CI teachers can refute universalists with overwhelming evidence as to the dual seed line doctrine, the facts related to the seed line of Cain and of the Edomite jews, give the correct meaning of the hundreds of mistranslated Hebrew and Greek words found in the scriptures, for example, the use of the words “world,” Gentile, “jew” and many others, as used in the bible. To this end, in my opinion, CI teachers have no peers. That is why I have abandoned the absurd dispensationalist Judeo-Christian Zionist worldview. Christian Identity doctrine, fully understood, handily refutes such jewish propaganda.

However, when it comes to “truth,” i.e., the deeper meaning behind and in spite of the facts, there is a severe shortage of supply. Let me provide an example of what I mean by truth, or the true spiritual meaning which often remains hidden and is not brought out enough in the teachings found within Christian Identity. I believe this exclusion of truth that I am speaking of can be shown from many passages of scripture, but 2 Kings 6:8-17 provides a good starting point:

8 Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place shall be my camp.
9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?
12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.
13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

The gist of the passage is that the “man of God,” the prophet Elisha, was able to foresee the plans of the king of Syria, and warn the king of Israel. Thus, on several occasions, protecting the Israelite king. When the Syrian king sent his horses, and chariots and a great host (of foot soldiers) and surrounded the city Elisha and his servant were in, to “fetch” him, Elisha’s servant saw the facts only. That is, he saw that they were surrounded by horses, chariots and a host of soldiers.

It was the man of God, the prophet Elisha, who saw the truth despite the facts. What was the truth of the matter? There was no reason to be afraid, “for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” It was Elisha who had open eyes and was w/o fear.

The young servant saw the facts, Elisha saw the truth.

We need more Elishas. However, there is a catch. It takes more effort to be allowed to enter into the holy of holies than it does to enter into the gate leading to the brazen altar and the laver. Many there are that enter into the wide gate, but few there are that enter in at the strait gate, few there are that gain the spiritual insight to discern, not only the facts, but the truth, the spiritual reality behind the facts.

13 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.

From my own experience, I know what keeps me from the truth. The discipline needed to be allowed into the holy of holies, where Yahweh’s truth is discovered, no, is revealed.

“You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” Not facts, but truth, set us free. How do we gain knowledge of this truth? : through the Spirit of truth, but only after and because we “keep his commandments.”

“If you love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; the Spirit of truth, whom the world can not receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him; but ye know him, for he dwells with you and shall be in you.” John 14:15-17

We pick and choose what commandments we are willing to obey. We look at Yahweh’s commandments as the Ten Suggestions. Consequently, our knowledge base is limited to facts, and we do not reach the inner place - the sanctuary - where truth can be revealed to us.

We are indeed a stiff necked people.

"You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit!"

We have lost the protection and blessings of God because of our rebellion against Him and His statutes, ordinances and commandments.

The US and other Anglo-Saxon nations, are facing economic, political and social ruin. Our nations are being invaded by outsiders: Muslims, blacks, third worlders and other non-white peoples. Edomite Talmudic jews control virtually every important aspect of our culture: the money system, the media, government, foreign policy, education, the corporations that control what we eat, wear, watch, and hear. This is the direct result of our disobedience to Yahweh's laws. No one or nothing can stop the ruination about to happen, except Yahshua Christ. But why should he? We all need to be taught a lesson, again. We never learn.

Some of us need to get to the place where we can speak out from a position of the strength of character that was found in the leaders of our race in the past. Moses, who stood up to Pharaoh; Elijah, who mocked Ahab and his prophets of Baal; Elisha, who healed the waters of Jericho; David, with indignation, cut off the head of Goliath, the Hittite; Stephen, who was stoned for daring to speak the truth to the Sanhedrin. The list is long, as recounted in Hebrews 11.

I need a rejuvenating spiritual massage to break my stiff necked resistance to Yahweh and His truth, so that he can reveal to me the true spiritual reality that surrounds us in our everyday life.

We know the facts: we are slowly but surely being surrounded, encompassed by the powerful forces that wish to enslave us completely, as the consequence of our refusing to obey Yahweh’s Commandments.

But are we willing to get to the place where the spiritual truth of the reality behind the facts, can be shown to us? And that we, like those Israelites of old, are of such character, that we can once again be worthy of Yahweh's blessing and divine protection?
