Yeshua Cup Quotes

“Being the High Priest I have the duty of shepherding my flock, and since proselytizing is illegal, I must do so by more subversive means. I opened my school under the throne of King Nebuchadnezzar, I taught mathematics, science, astronomy, archeology, antiquities, languages, and fingers to lips (theology). I tootled the Kings children, as well as those of the nobles, I also taught the Hebrew servants. There were four young men who stood out among the others Belteshazzar, whose Hebrew name was Daniel, and his three friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. These men were already well versed in many disciplines and made discussions a delight. They were devout men who chose not to defile themselves with the royal rations and wine. Daniel had the gift of Yoseph he could interpret dreams.”

“From generation to generation kings would come and go some served the Lord some were self-serving. Through His prophets, Iam conveyed:“I tire of the haughtiness of Israel, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty and walk with necks outstretched, glancing wantonly with their eyes, mincing along as they go tinkling with their feet; the Lord will afflict with scabs the heads of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will lay bare their secret parts. I will take away the finery of the anklets, the headbands, and the crescent; the pendants, the bracelets, and the scarves; the headdresses, the armlets, the sashes, the perfume boxes, and the amulets, the signet rings and nose rings; the festal robes, the mantles, the cloaks, and the hand bags, the garments of gauze, the linen garments, the turbans and the veils.”

“Obviously there is some confusion, this I know, that the God of Ishmael is the One True God, He is the God of the moon, God of the river, God of the stars, He is the God of all creation, who loved His creation so much that He sacrificed His only son, Yeshua to appease the blood debt owed. If this is indeed the same you serve than yes they are the same, and surrender yourself to Him, but if you serve the creation and not it’s Creator than this is a most fatal error.”

“Please forgive, but this God you serve, is He not the God of the moon?” Are they not the one and same? What actions are most excellent? To gladden the hearts of human beings, to feed the hungry, to help the afflicted, to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the suffering of the injured, is this not what your Jesus teaches as well?”

“Allah? The moon god? No, we are not of him.” Mariah confessed, “We serve Al-liah, Iam the God of Abraham, the God of Ishmael, the One True God.”

“He wanted to wait until the last moment before conversion under the misconception that more of his sins would be forgiven. Eusaebus turned out to be an Arianizing bishop so his baptism was still questionable as to its validity in the eyes of orthodoxy. Constantain died on his way back to Constantinople in the villa of Axyron without his heavy burden. “Ouranous dear friend I am afraid,” Constantain took hold of my hand. “Have you accepted Iesou as your Lord and Savior without guile or trickery?” “I have,” he said weakly. “Then go with God, and be at peace,” I commissioned; he smiled and breathed his last. Before his death Constantain issued and signed both Utar and my release papers, giving us the status of citizens and freemen along with rings that held the Emperor’s seal to prove it, in the center of my ring read; “servum qui liberavit Constantiam”(the slave that freed Constance). With fifteen long years in the service of Constintain, away from my beloved Mariah at an end, it was time to make the arduous journey back to Avl. With our release papers in hand Utar and I took the Roman highway to the Gael waterway, we fashioned a coite’ for crossing. I kept listing to the south and nearly had my head bashed in by an angry Raoirreanac.”

“Ouranous, you chatter on daily of these Christian ideals, but such things should not rest on the shoulders of a boy who should have gone and relieved himself instead of waiting to pen one more word. No, man is the center of all creation; any other beings must be an abomination. This I do decree!” That was the end of the conversation and the end of the conference. I stood with Costantain through the campaign with the Sarmations and the disputes with Persia. He was going to attack Persia after he was baptized in the Jordan River. I told him that I could baptize him in the name of the Lord, but he refused and called for Eusebius to baptize him so that his baptism would not be called into question.”

“Three hundred and fifteen elders from throughout the Empire were in attendance all but two voted against Arian and all but five called for his excommunication from the church. Then the dispute of validity of all the believers that he baptized. The topic of the Sabbath came up whether or not to keep holy Sun down Friday evening to sun down Saturday or should the day of the resurrection of Christ be the day of rest. Constantain being a worshipper of Sol ordered that, “At the rising of Sol on the Day of the Sun until the rising of Sol the following morning would be the celebrated time!” He also did this to separate from the beliefs of the Jews who at the time were not popular among the Turks.”
― J. Michael Morgan, Yeshua Cup: The Melchizedek Journals

“Though Constance was a worshipper of Sol, and not the One who created it, he wished to settle a dispute between orthodox Christianity and the arise of rhetoric from the heretic Arian, who claimed that Yeshua was not to be considered with God, but separate and without deity, and was not before He walked Gar. A council was called in Nicaea of Bithynia to settle the matter and bring unity of beliefs through out the Empire.”

“What good is it to be a priest if not to perform such a ceremony?” I gave them my blessing. By a waterfall near the road side, I had them join hands and bound them together with sprigs of heather. “In marriage, we see Iam’s plan that man should not be alone, that he should have a help-mate, but in all things man and woman are not alone in the binding, bow now and ask the Lord to be apart of your marriage; as the Lord is the head of the church, and the church protects and fellowships with its people, so it is with the sanctity of marriage. This covenant may not be broken until the Day of Days when all are united as one in Christ. If this covenant is true say Amen.” “Amen” “This day you are one.”

“Love?” “Love.” “I have watched His followers, these little Christs, and am jealous of them, I am wishing to be one of them but I am not a Jew? How can I be one of them?” “The Law of Sovereignty states that if a criminal should beg forgiveness and has truly confessed his guilt, he may ask of his king to take his place, the criminal becomes the property of the king but is a citizen of good standing when the king takes his place. Are you such a man?” “I am.” “Do you confess your guilt?” “I do.” “Do you accept Him as your redeemer?” “I do.” “Will you obey His commands?” “I will? “Then, welcome brother.” “But as I have said I am not a Jew?” “And as I have said, neither am I. It is true that Yeshua came first for the Jew, but He came for all men, so that on the Day of Days we will be of one nation.”

“That is the heart of why I have come. Why would He do this? He who was (the) God, I have been overwhelmed by this fact, so this I know. Why would He who is so much greater than any give Himself up for so little? Die for those who would rather see Him dead than know Him?” “Why would a father love his child when the child has rebelled against him? Or a shepherd search for a lost lamb when he has so many others?” I asked “Are you sure you are not a Jew? You sound like a Jew, answering a question with a question?” “Then I might add so do you. You have not answered my question.”

“And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; and also upon My men-servants, and upon My maid-servants, in those days, I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy; and I will give wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath—blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke, the sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the coming of the day of the Lord—the great and illustrious; and it shall be, every one—whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.” (Joel)”

“When we returned home, and the disciples went up stairs, they sat down and in prayerful consideration chose Matthias to take the Iscariot’s portion. Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. Suddenly, a sound like a violent wind blowing came from heaven and filled the entire house where they were sitting. And tongues spreading out like a fire appeared to them and came to rest on each one of them. All of them were filled with Pnuemagios, and they began to speak in other languages as the Spirit enabled them. To those who were in Jerusalem that day, this is what they heard.”

“Now Yeshua spent forty days with His disciples, and in that time a disciple asked, “Lord is this the time that You are returning to claim Israel?” “You are not permitted to know the times or the period by which the Father has committed to by His own authority. But you will receive power when Pnuemagios comes upon you and you will be witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the farthest reaches of Gar, but for now stay in Jerusalem for Pnuemagios, Whom the Father has promised and I have told you about; not many days from now.” When Yeshua had finish saying these things, while we were still watching, Yeshua was lifted up until a cloud hid him from our sight and Gabriel and Raphael came up behind us saying, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking up into the sky? This same Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will come back in the same way you saw him go, from heaven.”

“Much to my discredit and shame, I had found that Iudas had taken my advice and hung himself. With a length of rope he went out to a high hill and did himself in. In the heat of the sun his insides burst over the valley floor, and now the locals are calling the place Hakeldama which means ‘the field of blood’’. Barabbas Bar Jesus gave up on the slavery business, fell in with the disciples, changed his name to Barnabas and went to Antioch to start a church. Tiberius Caesar being of great age and paranoia began bringing in people on various charges weather substantiated or not, starting with his advisors. With his popularity waning, Tiberius retired to the island of Capri and left his authority to General Sejanus who with great enthusiasm kept up with the treason trials.”

“Ordinance of Caesar. It is my pleasure that graves and tombs remain undisturbed in perpetuity for those who have made them for the cult of their ancestors, or children, or members of their house. If, however, any man lay information that another has either demolished them, or has any other way extracted the buried, or has maliciously transferred them to other places in order to wrong them, or has displace the sealing or other stones, against such a one I order that a trial be instituted, as in respect to the gods, so in regard to the cult of mortals. For it shall be much more obligatory to honor the buried. Let it be absolutely forbidden for anyone to disturb them. In the case of contravention I desire that the offender be sentenced to capital punishment on charge of violation of sepulture.” Pontius Pilate.”

“Pilate, having heard of the disappearance of the body of Yeshua, became afraid and sent soldiers to investigate the tomb, when they had arrived at the tomb; they found Michael sitting on the stone that had once sealed the tomb. “Who is it that you seek? If it is the Nazarene He is not here He has risen and walks among you.” Michael was filled with the glory of the Lord so that the soldiers covered there faces in fear and fainted. The soldiers fearing that Pilate would not believe them fabricated a story that the disciples stole the body in the night; so that Pilate had marker stones placed one milion apart through out Israel that read:”

“Hallelujah, Praise to the God of all things, the One who spoke the kosmos into being. Great are you Lord who made us all, Giver of all good gifts; great are you God. Restorer of life, death is nothing to You; Death has no dominion. All is well, hallelujah, all is well.”

“Do not touch me for I have not yet ascended, but go and tell My brothers that I am now ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your God.” Then she ran back to the others to tell them what she had witnessed. In giddy rapture I walked, no, danced back to my home with a psalm of praise on my lips.”

“Mary remained and wept at the tomb, bending down and peering into the tomb; there she saw Gabriel and Raphael sitting where the body once lay. “Woman why do you weep,” they asked? “They have taken my Lord but I do not know where.” Mary turned to run away but there was a man standing behind her. He asked, “Woman why do you weep, whom are you seeking? Through her tears, and never seeing Him without his hair and beard, she mistook Him for the gardener. “My Lord if you have taken Him somewhere please tell me so that I may take Him?” “Mary,” Yeshua answered softly. “Rabboni,” she cried and went to fall on Him but He stopped her.”

“Now go tell your wife what has happened, but do not tell my brothers, for they will come in their own time, as for Me, I must tarry awhile and tend my rose.”As we were walking, the Magdalene came by the tomb to lay some flowers by the stone, finding the stone rolled away from the door and the tomb empty she ran back to tell the disciples what she had found. This time Petros and Dohdii ran ahead of Mary and reached the tomb first. Dohdii stopped at the stone but Petros ran in. He found the linens nicely folded but the shroud was rolled up away from the linen. Dohdii finally screwed up his courage and went in finding Petra alone with the linen and he believed.”

“I am breath, And Iam breathed; We are the Son of Man. Tongues of fire And born of water We are the Son of Man. Man the son, And the Son of Man, Knit in the soul are We. Sweeping Gar like wildfire All in one, True Desire, We are the Son of Man. Drink deep and have your fill Such is the Son of Man Skim off the dross Refine the gold Revere the cross Renew the old We are the Son of Man. Conquer the lost Uplift the found Imagination unbound I am Pnuemagios, We are the Son of Man.”

“It was not for you to save Me, but for Me to save all who come to Me. What has come to pass was to glorify the Father, for this was written long before the foundation of Gar was laid. Thank you Dowd for your strength, you have helped me to accomplish all that I have needed to accomplish. Now I will send One to go before all of the Kosmos to bring forth the Kingdom of Heaven. Pnuemagios!” Yeshua called out. There was a brief silence and then a strong gust of wind whipped by and there standing before us was a man of yellow gold who looked like Yeshua and that of Iam. “Go,” Yeshua commanded. Pnuemagios smiled and with a bold voice started singing.”

“This is not possible,” I stammered as I ran to embrace Him. Yeshua put up his hand to stop me, showing the scars from the nails “Do not touch me, for I have not yet been to see the Father. Did I hear from your lips ‘not possible’? Come now Dowd, where is your faith? Have you not been with Me for thirty years? Have you not listened? Have you not heard?” I knew He was talking about my conversation with Iudas and how I judged him harshly. “How many times greater is that than three?” “I am sorry I could not save You?” “It was not for you to save Me, but for Me to save all who come to Me. What has come to pass was to glorify the Father, for this was written long before the foundation of Gar was laid. Thank you Dowd for your strength, you have helped me to accomplish all that I have needed to accomplish. Now I will send One to go before all of the Kosmos to bring forth the Kingdom of Heaven. Pnuemagios!” Yeshua called out.”

“Sh”, Michael said quietly listening to the circular rock. I could hear nothing at first, but then tap, tap, tap like rock tapping on rock. Michael walked over, reached down, and picked the burial stone up off its track but only darkness remained of the tomb. “My thanks,” a voice came from deep within then out of the darkness came whiteness from a man wearing white linen robes as He stepped out of the tomb. It was Yeshua alive and well. “Behold the Lamb that was slain for the transgressions of man, Behold the Son who bridged the gap to the Father, Behold the One who has marched through Sheol and set the prisoners free. Behold Yeshua the Son of God,” Gabriel announced.”

“Quiet!” Gabriel shushed. “Behold!” at first there was a slight pinkish glow coming from Golgotha, I thought it was the reflection of the rising sun but the East was still very dark, and then it became brighter, the whole mountain grew brighter and brighter like a cupped hand over a candle, the light was coming from within the mountain itself. Rays of intense light poured out in every direction from behind the burial stone. Gabriel blew his golden shofar in a loud single blast so loud that Gar shook. Then all at once everything was quiet once more and my eyes had to focus in the darkness once more after nearly being blinded by the light and deafened by the blast.”

“Patuar, this is glorious news, but do not ask me, come and see for yourself?” Gabriel led me out to the city gate called Damascus he took hold of my shoulder and we passed through them. He led me out to the garden where Yeshua was buried. “You will find no glory here only sadness and grief,” I hung my head in shame. “Peace be still,” Gabriel chided, “Watch!” Gabriel pointed at the tomb, Michael and Raphael stepped out of the shadows also watching the heavy stone. Long moments passed and the stone was still a stone, “Yes, very exciting!”

“Jesus, I am from a wealthy family I can help You support Your ministry we should marry, it would be a good match.” Yeshua stopped and put His hand up to her cheek. “My Pretty Rose, I have told you before I am not for you.” “But I know You have feelings for me; I can see it in Your eyes.” “Ken (Yes), I love you truly, but as I have said before, you are meant for another.” Mary lowered her head dejectedly as tears welled up in her eyes, I felt sick for her; it would be a good match why would Yeshua be so steadfast against such a marriage? She would make an excellent queen. “Be of good cheer,” He smiled, “for your future husband is in that vary courtyard even now.” Mary brightened and ran into the officer’s courtyard; it was a beautifully manicured garden of trees, flowers, and topiary sculptures but was devoid of people. Mary looked to and fro; only to see two Roman guards standing watch over of the entrance to the quarters, as a Centurion was inspecting them. Disappointed once more Mary left, she returned to where we were but we had continued down the lane. After a moment she saw us and ran to catch up.”

“Who are you,” Yeshua asked? “Son of God, is Your memory so short You do not remember me?” Mary paced back and forth seeking to find a weakness she could exploit; Yeshua answered flatly, “Lust.” “Yes! You remembered me!” Mary danced around laughing maliciously, “Yes, and I have brought friends.” “In the name of the Living God name yourselves!” In their own voice each answered in kind: “Lust”, “Confusion”, “Deception”, “Derision”, “Rage”, “Malice”, and “Malfeasance”. “I command you, be cast out into the ethereal and trouble her no more!” At Yeshua’s command the demonions threw Mary down at His feet, she convulsed and screamed in horrific agony, then lay as still as death. Yeshua knelt down lifting her head and placing it on His knees. “Mary?” Her eyes fluttered and opened staring up into His eyes.”
