This letter is a collection of things that I have observed in the Bible and the world. There are many examples of how God communicates with us. The most important things about following Jesus are:

1. Love the Lord your God with all your strength, heart, mind, body and soul.
   
2. Love your neighbour as yourself.

In identifying some of God's communication, I am following one aspect of the first commandment of Jesus.

1. Linguistic Parables See also – Linguistic Markers | Buddhism | Hinduism

Linguistic markers
I use the term 'linguistic marker' to refer to a word within a word that relates to the spiritual significance of that word. These markers are not included intentionally by people (e.g. the word 'sin' in 'sinful' does not count) and they are not related to the etymology of the words. They are instances where God has influenced the evolution of language such that these markers exist. They are probably found in all languages, and they cross language boundaries; a word in one language might be interpreted to have a linguistic marker in another language. Caution should be used with linguistic markers because a term is not satanic just because it sounds like 'Satan'. For example, the word 'erotic' has the word 'rot' in it, which falsely implies that sexual desire is wrong. The case for linguistic markers is proved here, and some examples are given below:

• Business.
  
• Cash.
  
• The Son is the spiritual light of the world, and the sun is the physical light.
  
• Tsunami contains the word 'sun'.
  
• Evil: live (i.e. life is the opposite of evil and has the reverse spelling).
  
• Devil: evil (these words also contain 'VI', the roman numeral for the number six).
  
• Horoscope: horror scope.
  
• Tarot: to rot.
  
• World and sword (e.g. Revelation 2:16): Word.
  
• Jesus was a carpenter and worked with wood, a similar word to 'Word'
  
• Synod (the ruling body of the Church of England).
  
• Synagogue (a Jewish temple).
  
• Divine: the vine.
  
• Emmanuel: a Manuel (a guide for living).
  
• Physics: three six (666).
  
• Atheist: a thirst.

Feet have souls
In John 13:5-14, Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, and told them that they would not understand this when it was done for them, but they would understand later. Jesus was washing the soles of their feet; in other words, Jesus was teaching the disciples to 'wash' the souls of others. The full meaning can only be understood at the present time.

Sole
A sole is a type of fish; Jesus used fish to represent his followers. The word sounds like 'soul'.

Ears of Corn
In Matthew 13:1-9, Jesus tells the parable of the man who sows corn. He finishes with, "Listen, then, if you have ears!" Ripe stalks of corn have ears. Jesus is hinting that we should look for parables such as these linguistic markers. The ripeness of the corn also links with the harvest (a parable about the change from the present age to the New Age).

Revelation 2:17: "If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches! To those who win the victory I will give some of the hidden manna." The 'hidden manna' refers to parables such as these linguistic markers.

Europe: your rope
Historically, Europe has been the rope to hang ourselves with. This is where the Catholic Church originated and is responsible for many major wars. Along with America and Australia (both of which Europe colonised), it has established the modern Westernised society, which is responsible for much of the poverty and suffering in the world.

Mountains
Jesus taught on the mount of olives (mountain of life).
Moses received the commandments on Mount Sinai.

Santa Claus
Santa Claus: Satan's Claws. The name Santa Claus is derived from the Dutch for St. Nicolas (Sinte Klaas). Santa is portrayed as carrying his toys on a sleigh. The word 'sleigh' is pronounced the same as 'slay', reflecting the effect of Christmas consumerism on the poor.

Saints
'Saint Paul' is really 'Satan Paul'.

Stan
All the countries that end in 'stan' are under the rule of Stan (Satan):

Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.

Islamabad
The name of the Capital City of Pakistan sounds like 'Islam is Bad'.

Hellmand province
There's been a lot about the Hellmand province in the news – it is part of Afghanistan and contains the word 'hell'.

Dogma
Dogma has the word 'dog' in it. Priests wear a dog collar. The word 'dog' has the reverse spelling of 'God', suggesting that the priesthood and the church system are anti-God.

Bach
The most famous composer of hymns for the organ is Bach, whose name sounds like the noise that a dog makes. The BWV numbers are used as a reference number for Bach's compositions. BWV 666 is a hymn called 'Jesus Christ and our welfare'.

Musick
The book of Daniel in the KJV Bible uses this spelling of 'music', which contains the word 'sick', perhaps a comment on the style of church worship. Sick also sounds like six (sick, sick, sick sounds like 666).

Bishop
The word 'Bishop' is a composite of two linguistic markers, 'buy' and 'shop' relating to buying and selling (666) – Revelation 13:17.

Selfish
The word 'selfish' is a composite of two linguistic markers, 'sell' and 'fish'. Fish represent followers of Jesus. Selling fish is a parable about what happened to Jesus (he was betrayed for silver). This represents the activities of priests (they get paid at the expense of the poor); hence this is a parable about the selfishness of priests.

Heresy
Heresy sounds like 'hear, see'.

Babylon
This represents North America, particularly the east coast. The word sounds like a contraction of 'Baby London'; North America was colonised by Western Europe including Britain, whose capital is London.

Sabbath
The Sabbath day is the traditional day on which Christians worship St. Paul and the Old Testament god. The word contains the marker 'bath', perhaps indicating the result of this type of worship (the water-based plagues).

Mormons
Mormons trust in a modern day prophet called Joseph Smith who was visited by an angel called Moroni. His name sounds like 'Joseph's Myth', and the angel's name sounds like 'moron'. Their 'third Testament' contains books called Helaman (hell) and Ether (nothingness).

Archangel
Archangel = Angel of the Ark (of Noah). The story of the great flood and Noah's Ark refers to the time of the end, and the Archangel Michael's role (killing Satan) is a parable about my role.

Sadducees
These were Jews who did not believe that people would rise from the death. 'Sadducee' contains the word 'Sad'.

SATs
SATs are two different types of educational examination that happen in the UK and USA. They share their first three letters with the word 'Satan'. Educational segregation through examination is not in line with following Jesus, because it creates inequality of status and opportunity in society. Where people live forever, there is infinite time in which people can be educated to the same standards if they choose.

Peasant
'Peasant' sounds like 'pheasant', a type of bird that is hunted for sport by the rich. Birds represent angels.

Chrysalis
The process by which a caterpillar turns into a butterfly is a parable for how a person turns into an angel. The word 'Chrysalis' contains a word sounding like 'Christ'.

Ashura
Ashura is an Islamic day of fasting.

More ash
Ashdod (place) and Asher (tribe) are associated with Israel.

Madness: satanic spiritual influence

• Ahmad and Muhammad are popular Islamic names.

• Madonna: the Virgin Mary, representing myself, and the probable authorship of the Gospel of John and the Gospel of Mary Magdalene; see "About the Author".

• Madarosis: an abnormal loss of hair; there are parables such as the story of Samson and Delilah where hair represents the heir to the throne of God (Jesus).

• Madefy: to moisten or make wet (a link between Satanic Pauline theology and the plagues).

• Madrigal: a song (a link between hymn singing and Satanic influence).

Listen then if you have ears!
This is a phrase used by Jesus throughout his teachings to indicate the presence of a parable as described above.

Mark 4:22
"Whatever is hidden away will be brought out into the open, and whatever is covered up will be uncovered. Listen then if you have ears!"

Matthew 11:14-15
"John is Elijah, whose coming was predicted. Listen, then, if you have ears!"

Luke 14:34-35
"Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, there is no way to make it salty again. It is no good for the soil or for the manure heap; it is thrown away. Listen, then, if you have ears!"

The chemical symbol of sodium is 'Na'. There are several words that start with 'Na' that relate to the plagues, myself and Jesus:

• Naaman the Syrian: a parable about myself as described later.
  
• Nard: a perfume relating to myself (see the section entitled 'Alabaster box').
  
• Nazereth and Naboth relate to Jesus.
  
• Naomi: a harvest worker in the book of Ruth, relating to the time of the end.
  
• Nabal: this name means foolish; the original predicted date of the first plague was April Fools' day.
  
• Nahum: an Old Testament book in which a city is destroyed.

Matthew 13:40-43
"Just as the weeds are gathered up and burnt in the fire, so the same thing will happen at the end of the age: the Son of Man will send out his angels to gather up out of his Kingdom all those who cause people to sin and all others who do evil things, and they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where they will cry and grind their teeth. Then God's people will shine like the sun in their Father's Kingdom. Listen, then, if you have ears!"

There are at least two parables here; one parable refers to the weeds. Jesus uses the term 'weeds' to refer to followers of Paul. One of the most common weeds is the dandelion, which contains the word 'lion'. The first beast that Daniel saw was a lion, and this corresponds to the number of the beast, 666.

Another parable here is that 'sun' sounds like 'Son' – in other words, when people follow Jesus, they will 'shine like the Son'. Similarly, the three wise men saw the star of Jesus come up in the east (Matthew 2:2). The star that comes up every day in the east is the sun.

Numbers 24:17
I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.

Solomon
Solomon is associated with wisdom. His name contains the word 'solo', suggesting that it is spiritually wise to follow Jesus alone, rather than to attend a church with everyone else.

Cat
The words cathedral, Catholic and caterpillar (mentioned above) contain the word 'cat'. The first beast in the book of Daniel (666) is a lion, a type of cat. Like the weeds (above), this is another parable that links the Church with conventional wisdom, an ideology that is in opposition to following Jesus.

Curiosity killed the cat
I am very curious, and my curiosity has helped to kill the cat (conventional wisdom).

Rex
A Rex is a type of cat (666). A T-Rex is a particularly vicious type of dinosaur. The dinosaurs were huge ancient lizards that represent people who sin as a result of following ideologies derived from conventional wisdom (666). They became extinct after an asteroid impact.

Hex
A hex is an evil spell or curse. 'Hex' is also a prefix meaning 'six', found in words such as 'hexagon'.

The meaning of Holy
The Bible may be 'Holy' (holey) because it is incomplete – the rest "comes by means of parables" (Luke 8:10). On a related note, it is interesting that three of the Gospels are described as 'synoptic', which contains a word similar to 'sin'. The influence of Paul and the existing Jewish tradition could be significant, making it very important to judge by true standards when reading the Gospels.

Judas
Judas looks like a combination of two words, Jew and Das (a German word for 'the'). The Jews in Israel were under Roman rule, and probably had similar lives to the Jews in Nazi Germany. When Judas betrayed Jesus, he probably thought he was doing the right thing, after seeing the power of God that worked through Jesus. He may have thought that Jesus would use the power of God against the Romans and bring about an end to Roman occupation. Many Jews at the time thought that the Messiah would be a military leader. This is one reason why Judas Iscariot was not the person who really betrayed Jesus, contrary to the opinions of the Gospel writers. However, the name 'Judas' is still used as a parable for betrayal.

Horny Devil
The horny devil or moloch is a type of lizard. It sounds like 'Molech', a god referred to by the Old Testament. The three terms 'devil', 'lizard' and 'Molech' all link to Satan.

Great Horned Owl
Great Horned Owl, Bubo virginianus, is found in North and South America. Owls are traditionally associated with wisdom. The horns represent Satan, and the species name contains the word virgin. This is a similar parable to the whore of Babylon:

• The owl represents conventional wisdom (666) – Pauline theology.

• The horns represent Satan – Pauline theology.

• The word virgin is linked to the Virgin Mary, representing myself (see "About the Author") and by extension, Paul (see "Who is Jesus? Who is Paul?").

• North America – the location where Paul is worshipped most devoutly.

In addition, owls were 'unclean birds' that the Jews were forbidden to eat (Leviticus 11:17 and Deuteronomy 14:16). In this case, the owl may represent spiritual wisdom ('food') that Jews and followers of Paul do not eat.

Imam
Imams are Islamic teachers. They contain the word 'mam', which relates to Satan (the term 'Mother' is used to refer to myself, and by extension, St. Paul who is Satan). Similarly, Luke 16:13 (KJV Bible) says, "you cannot serve God and mammon." 'Mammon' means 'money' but there is a linguistic marker that also suggests Pauline theology or Satan.

Allah
The Islamic God Allah sounds similar to the first three letters of my name (Alasdair), providing further evidence for my future role as Satan.

Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene abbreviated gives 'Mama' or mother of God.

Alabaster box
Matthew 26:7: "There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat."

'Alabaster' sounds very much like my name, suggesting that this woman could have been me (see "About The Author" for further details).

Parable
The word 'parable' sounds like the word 'parabola', the term for a curve on a graph generated by a mathematical formula. The mathematical formula perhaps represents a perfect meaning behind the parables. However, we are only able to make an approximation to the perfect meaning (a 'line of best fit') which improves as more information and parables become available.

2. Parables About the Church See also – True Christianity

Declaring publicly that you belong to Jesus
In Matthew 10:32-33, Jesus says, "For those who declare publicly that they belong to me, I will do the same before my Father in heaven. But if anyone rejects me publicly, I will reject him before my Father in heaven."

Attending a church amounts to a public acceptance Paul and a public rejection of Jesus.

The moneychangers in the temple
In Matthew 21:12, Jesus overturned the tables of the moneychangers. The Church has a system of collecting money, and this money is used for purposes other than caring for the poor, sick and others that Jesus came to teach about (for example, it goes into repairing the church buildings and paying the wages of the priests – this is what he means by a "hideout for thieves").

The crook and the stole
The stole is an item of clothing used by the priesthood in various Christian denominations (Matthew 11:8 and Luke 7:25 say, "What did you go out to see? A man dressed in fancy clothes? People who live like that live in palaces!"). The Bishop's crook or crosier is supposed to represent a shepherd's crook. Both 'crook' and 'stole' imply theft; money that should go to the poor is used to pay the wages of priests.

Annual Christian feast
There are many feast days associated with Christianity, one of which is the The Annual Feast of the Chair of Peter. This is celebrated on 22nd February, my birthday (a link between myself and Peter). It celebrates Peter sitting as a Bishop in Rome, although whether or not he did this is disputed. The idea of apostolic succession is the basis on which the Catholic Church justifies having a Pope, the man who wears the fanciest clothes and lives in the fanciest palace, the Vatican City. It is an independent state with a population of about 500; interestingly, the per-capita crime rate of the Vatican City is the highest of any nation (mostly due to the theft of wallets and purses by pick-pockets), which reflects the other parables that link the Church with theft.

Being ashamed of Jesus' teaching
In Mark 8:38, Jesus says, "If a person is ashamed of me and of my teaching in this godless and wicked day, then the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

He is implying this of churchgoers; those who know what his teachings are, but follow Pauline theology instead.

Similarly, in Mark 3:29, Jesus says, "But whoever says evil things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven, because he has committed an eternal sin."

An example of this includes the propagation of Pauline theology. Satan pretends to be the Holy Spirit, and propagating satanic teaching is what Jesus means in Mark 3:29 (see this letter for details on how Satan communicates). This includes a huge number of people, but the "eternal sin" may only refer to contributors of the New Testament, as their writing will remain on record for eternity.

Spiritual blindness
John 9:41: Jesus answered, "If you were blind, then you would not be guilty; but since you claim that you can see, this means that you are still guilty."

In other words, those who claim to know how to follow Jesus, but don't do it (especially churchgoers) are more guilty of sin than those who don't attend church and don't claim to follow Jesus. The false pretense of Christianity is one of the main ideologies that is in opposition to following Jesus.

Curing a man born blind
In John chapter 9, Jesus cures a man born blind. This parallels the teachings of Jesus curing my own spiritual blindness (I was born blind into a blind society).

Being thrown into the sea
Mark 9:42: "If anyone should cause one of these little ones to lose his faith in me, it would be better for that person to have a large millstone tied round his neck and be thrown into the sea."

This statement refers to anyone who propagates Pauline theology. The "millstone" is the same tool that an angel uses to destroy Babylon in Revelation – in other words, this verse refers to many of the people who could die in the plague described in Luke 21:21. This relates to the predicted death of Simon Peter in the first plague, discussed later in this letter.

Mark chapter 5
This chapter relates to the time of the end. Jesus drives a mob of demons out of a man, and sends them into approximately 2000 pigs (representing the year 2000). The pigs rush off a cliff into the sea and are drowned.

Pigs are also known as swine, which sounds like 'wine'. Wine represents true teachings about Jesus. The story in Mark chapter 5 implies that a mob of demons have gone into the wine (creating the type of teaching heard in a modern church) and the rush into the sea represents the consequent plagues of the time of the end.

The narrow gate
Matthew 7:13-14: "Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate to hell is wide and the road that leads to it is easy, and there are many who travel it. But the gate that leads to life is narrow and the way that leads to it is hard and there are few people who find it."

There is nothing difficult about church worship other than trying to stay in tune with the hymns and knowing when to stand up and sit down. By contrast, following Jesus is hard – this is the narrow gate.

Mark 14:53-65
These verses describe what happened to Jesus before the council as they tried to find a way to put him to death. People told lies about him, which helped the authorities justify his arrest and crucifixion; this parallels the effect of Pauline theology and the Church on the teachings of Jesus.

Some examples of modern day lies about Jesus:

• Purgatory, and the need to pray for the dead.
  
• Singing is what God wants.
  
• Limbo.
  
• The Pauline 'grace of God', which promotes the idea that we don't need to follow the teachings of Jesus.
  
• Jesus as an idol of forgiveness.
  
• The importance of church buildings and cathedrals.

Mark 14:27
Everyone ran away and left Jesus. This did indeed happen – no one has followed him until now.

Sitting down at a feast
In Luke 14:7-14, Jesus instructs people not to sit down in the best place at a feast (which is a parable for eating his spiritual food) because if someone more important were invited (for example, the 2.5 billion people in poverty), then they would have to go down to the lowest place. He is probably referring to the priesthood who have tried to sit themselves in the best place, but are now being asked to move.

The parable of the weeds
Matthew 13:27-30: "The man's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, it was good seed you sowed in your field; where did the weeds come from?' 'It was some enemy who did this,' he answered. 'Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?' they asked him. 'No,' he answered, 'because as you gather the weeds you might pull up some of the wheat along with them. Let the wheat and the weeds both grow together until harvest. Then I will tell the harvest workers to pull up the weeds first, tie them in bundles and burn them, and then to gather in the wheat and put it in my barn.'"

Paul sowed the weeds (his followers). The harvest refers to the time of the end and the wheat represents future followers of Jesus.

The parable of the sower
Matthew 13:19: "Those who hear the message about the Kingdom but do not understand it are like the seeds that fell along the path. The Evil One comes and snatches away what was sown in them."

The Evil One is Paul.

Mark 2:22
"Nor does anyone pour new wine into used wineskins, because the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the skins will be ruined. Instead, new wine must be poured into fresh wineskins."

• Wine represents new teaching (or rather, the same teaching of 2000 years ago).

• Skins represent people.

The wine, 2000 years after Jesus, will go into fresh wineskins (people who are not religious); in other words, modern people should be more open to new ideas.

Jesus predicts the reaction of people to this website
Matthew 11:18: "When John came, he fasted and drank no wine, and everyone said, 'He has a demon in him!'"

Jesus predicts that many people, especially churchgoers will not believe this website

• Matthew 21:32: "For John the Baptist came to you showing you the right path to take, and you would not believe him; but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. Even when you saw this, you did not later change your minds and believe him." As discussed elsewhere, John the Baptist refers to my role.

• Matthew 17:11-13: "'Elijah is indeed coming first,' answered Jesus, 'and he will get everything ready. But I tell you that Elijah has already come and people did not recognise him, but treated him just as they pleased. In the same way they will also ill-treat the Son of Man.' Then the disciples understood that he was talking about John the Baptist."

• Luke 5:39: "And no one wants new wine after drinking old wine. 'The old is better,' he says."

• Matthew 24:38-39: "In the days before the flood people ate and drank, men and women married up to the very day Noah went into the boat; yet they did not realise what was happening until the flood came and swept them all away."

The Awful Horror
Matthew 24:15: "You will see the Awful Horror of which the prophet Daniel spoke. It will be standing in the Holy Place." What stands in the Holy Place? A cathedral. The Awful Horror may also refer to Paul's letters – they should not be in the Bible.

EC4M 8AD
The postcode of St Paul's Cathedral has the word 'mad' written into it. When this word is used as a linguistic parable, it refers to demonic possession or influence, and in this case refers to the influence of Paul on Christian worship.

The Head of the Church of England
The Head of the Church of England is the British monarch, one of the richest people in Britain. The irony should act as a clear indication that there is something seriously wrong with the church system.

Cathedral Close
Cathedrals are usually surrounded by a area called a Close, and the phrase 'Cathedral Close' is common. Another meaning of the word 'close' is 'to shut down'.

The Peace
Jeremiah 6:14 and 8:11:

"They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. 'Peace, peace,' they say, when there is no peace."

Take out your eye?
Matthew 18:9: "And if your eye makes you lose your faith, take it out and throw it away! It is better for you to enter life with only one eye than to keep both eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell."

Since Paul's letters have prevented people from having faith, we should remove them from the Bible. In Matthew 5:28-30, a similar statement is linked to adultery, a common parable for the worship of Paul as discussed elsewhere.

Isaiah 5:13-14
"Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude are dried up with thirst. Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory and their pomp and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it."

I have highlighted the phrase that refers to the Pauline form of the Christian religion.

Isaiah 5:4-6
"What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes? And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down: And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no more upon it." This passage refers to the last 1800-2000 years – God left the vineyard (Christian religion) unchecked but now the 'rain' (true teachings about Jesus) has come. In the story of Noah, this 'rain' causes the floods (the plagues of the time of the end).

Symbol of Saturn
Saturn sounds like 'Satan' and is our sixth planet. The traditional symbol for Saturn is a crucifix with a number two attached to it. The number two is a reference to the second coming as discussed elsewhere (i.e. a representation of Jesus). In other words, Saturn's (Satan's) symbol is that of Jesus nailed to the cross. This is the symbol of the Church, and represents the 'idol of forgiveness' that churchgoers worship.

3. Parables from Jesus See also – 1 | 2 | 3

Feeding the 5000
Jesus came with twelve disciples to feed people with spiritual teaching; twelve baskets were taken up at the end. The five loaves may relate to the four Gospels plus the Gospel of Thomas as described below.

Feeding the 4000
The feeding of the four thousand refers to the spiritual food that people will receive at the time of the end:

• The seven loaves represent the seven plagues (they draw attention to the spiritual food on this website in addition to helping to destroy the ideologies that are in opposition to following Jesus).

• This miracle was performed in the desert – the same location where Jesus was hungry for forty days and nights, the time frame leading up to the time of the end (see "The Time of the End").

• The miracle happened after three days, representing a 2000 year time period since the death of Jesus as discussed elsewhere. In other words, this spiritual food is made available at the present time.

• After this miracle, Jesus went to the territory of Magadan (Matthew 15:39), a word sounding like 'Magdalene' (see "About the Author"). The verse number may relate to the time of the end (2039).

Walking on water
Jesus walks on water – this shows that following him will stop us from sinking in the flood of Noah (the plagues). If we all start to follow Jesus, tackle the problems of poverty and remove the ideologies that are in opposition to following him, then the plagues would no longer be justified and would not happen. Different parts of the world may be affected to varing degrees by the plagues depending on how much they follow Jesus. However, this miracle may have implications for some other kind of spiritual protection against the plagues for individuals who follow Jesus.

Water into wine
In John 2:1-12, Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding. This happened on the "third day" relating to 2000 years since the death of Jesus. Jesus uses weddings and feasts to represent eating the 'Passover meal' or the spiritual food on this website, and the coming of the New Age. The water in this miracle probably represents the water-based plagues. One purpose of the plagues is to draw attention to the true teachings about Jesus – the wine. In other words, water (plagues) turns into wine (true teachings). A related parable is to note that the words 'sea' (plagues) and 'see' (curing spiritual blindness) are pronounced in the same way.

Passover meal
In Luke 22:15-16, Jesus says, "I have wanted so much to eat this Passover meal with you before I suffer! For I tell you, I will never eat it until it is given its full meaning in the Kingdom of God."

The first Passover is described in the book of Exodus. It was eaten on the night when the Egyptian first born sons were killed before the Israelites were allowed to go free. Similarly, the spiritual food on this website warns us about the seven plagues. Eating the spiritual food and following Jesus is like eating the Passover meal (the Israelites who participated were protected from the plague that affected the Egyptians – God 'passed over' their families and left them unharmed). The Passover meal involved the sacrifice of a lamb, representing the sacrifice that Jesus made.

Jesus says that he will wait on people when he returns (Luke 12:37). He is referring to the preparation of this spiritual meal. The traditional date for this event occurs in late March or early April (around April 1st) on the day of a full moon; this links the concept of foolishness (the opposite to conventional wisdom) with eating spiritual food and following Jesus. As discussed elsewhere, conventional wisdom is a mindset that prevents people from following Jesus.

Website Updates
This website is constantly updated, reflecting what Jesus says in Luke 8:18, "Be careful, then, how you listen; because those who have something will be given more, but those who have nothing will have taken away from them even the little they think they have." The second group of people refers to followers of Paul.

Jesus also says in Matthew 7:7, "Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you."

Violent attacks against the Kingdom of God
Matthew 11:12: "From the time John preached his message until this very day the Kingdom of heaven has suffered violent attacks, and violent men try to seize it."

The name 'John' refers to myself as discussed elsewhere. Jesus is warning that New Jerusalem and the ideas on this website will come under attack.

The parable of the mustard seed
Matthew 13:31-32: Jesus told them another parable: "The Kingdom of heaven is like this. A man takes a mustard seed and sows it in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it grows up, it is the biggest of all plants. It becomes a tree, so that birds come and make their nests in its branches."

The "mustard seed" relates to the amount of faith required to tell a mountain to throw itself in the sea (Matthew 17:20) and by extension, the amount of faith required to make this website.

Widow's Mite
Mark 12:41-44 describes a widow who put the last coins she had into the temple treasury. Jesus said that this person had put more in than anyone else because she had given all that she had to live on. He was not encouraging people to give to churches. He was indicating that using all our resources in the pursuit of following Jesus (even if we have very little) is of more value than a very rich person giving a proportion of their wealth to the poor. A case in point is this website, which was created with few material resources, but did take a lot of time to write. Following Jesus is not just about giving money to the poor; in fact Jesus instructs us to sell our possessions, give the money to the poor then follow him, implying that giving money to the poor is only a precursor to following him. Jesus tells us to do this directly several times, but also tells us through parables (Matthew 13:44-46):

The Parable of the Hidden Treasure
The Kingdom of heaven is like this. A man happens to find a treasure hidden in a field. He covers it up again, and is so happy that he goes and sells everything he has, and then goes back and buys that field.

The Parable of the Pearl
Also, the Kingdom of heaven is like this. A man is looking for fine pearls, and when he finds one that is unusually fine, he goes and sells everything he has, and buys that pearl.

'Widow's mite' sounds like 'widow's might' alluding to the term 'almighty', and suggests that the power of God can only be experienced fully when we are following Jesus.

Jesus has come to call outcasts
Matthew 9:12-13: Jesus heard them and answered, "People who are well do not need a doctor, but only those who are sick. Go and find out what is meant by the scripture that says: 'It is kindness that I want, not animal sacrifices.' I have not come to call respectable people, but outcasts."

The people who are well are the outcasts who he has come to call. The people who are sick are the so-called respectable people who don't follow his teachings. The animal sacrifices represent the sacrifices made by people in churches (payment of priests etc.).

Jesus was born in a stable with animals because there was no room in the inn. The inn represents heaven, which is not yet built. The 'animals' represent the social behaviour traits of people in our society (selfishness, greed etc.). The animals on Noah's Ark represent the same thing. People in the modern workplace behave in much the same way as apes in a jungle, although the interactions are much more complex. The same behaviours are seen in churches. People have many reasons for going to church, but one of them is to be allowed into heaven. People are selfish in nature and most expend the minimum possible effort that they think is required to get into heaven. In reality, "Love your neighbour as yourself" incorporates a rejection of selfish instincts which is discussed below. Since animals represent people, animal sacrifices represents the money that people give to churches.

Deaf and dumb spirit
Mark 9:14-29 describes Jesus driving a "deaf and dumb spirit" out of a person which had often tried to "kill him by throwing him in the fire and into water." Jesus drove out the spirit and the boy "looked like a corpse." Then Jesus helped him to get up.

Jesus uses spiritual healing as a parable for teaching people to follow him (i.e. curing people from the results of not following him). This illness may represent spiritual deafness (not listening to his teaching) and spiritual dumbness (not thinking about the issues that surround following Jesus) leading to being thrown into fire and water (representing the plagues of the time of the end). These plagues are also the cure for this spiritual 'illness', which leads to a person "looking like a corpse" (death), followed by their resurrection into the New Age. This idea is reinforced by the same story in Matthew 17:14-21, where Jesus also mentions the amount of faith needed to move a mountain (relating to one of the plagues of the time of the end).

Hell – our society
Luke 12:5: "I will show you whom to fear: fear God, who, after killing, has the authority to throw into hell. Believe me, he is the one you must fear!"

This refers to people who are born into our present Age, and are later reborn into it again. Examples include myself and Simon Peter. Hell is our society and the fires of hell are the plagues of the time of the end.

Luke 4:26-27
In Luke 4:26-27, Jesus says, "Elijah was not sent to anyone in Israel, but only to a widow living in Zaraphath in the territory of Sidon. And there were many people suffering from a dreaded skin disease in the time of Elisha, yet not one of them was healed, only Naaman the Syrian." He was saying that he has been sent mostly for us, 2000 years after he was crucified. He was probably sent mostly for us because we have the greatest potential to follow him, in a free-thinking, more accepting and educated society. We have the potential for self-destruction, but also an overwhelming potential to heal the world. We also have a relatively huge population, and many people will benefit from his teaching. It therefore makes sense that the actions and teachings of Jesus should be targeted especially at us.

Both Elijah and Naaman the Syrian refer to myself, as there are representations that tie together Eve, John the Baptist, Elijah, Paul (converted on the road to Damascus in Syria), the whore of Babylon and other Biblical characters with myself as described elsewhere on this website (e.g. here).

Naaman the Syrian was a leper (2 Kings 5:1), who was cured of his leprosy by washing in the river Jordan seven times. John the Baptist used this river to baptise people. John's role is a parable for my own, and the number seven refers to the plagues of the time of the end. In other words, those things that cause people to be outcast (represented by leprosy) are cured by the seven plagues of the time of the end.

The letter about the third beast shows that I am represented by a leper. This 'leprosy' is cured by experiencing all seven of the plagues much like Naaman had to wash seven times. This is another parable in support of the warning at the end of the book of Revelation.

Mary Magdalene's seven demons
Mark 16:9 indicates that Jesus had driven out seven demons from Mary Magdalene, reflecting the seven plagues that should drive people away from Pauline theology. Mary may have been a prostitute and a representation of her as the whore of Babylon is pictured on North America. This picture indicates where many people follow the teachings of Paul as described here.

Jesus healed Simon Peter's mother
In Matthew 8:15, Jesus healed Simon Peter's mother. He also healed Mary Magdalene, who is probably his mother in the New Age.

Zachariah, Matthew 23:35
Jesus says that the punishment for the murder of this man will fall on us. The father of John the Baptist (a parable for my role) was called Zachariah (Luke 1:5). Since our Father is God (Jesus), he is referring to the murder of himself.

Four corners of the Earth
Matthew 24:31 says, "The great trumpet will sound, and he will send out his angels to the four corners of the earth, and they will gather his chosen people from one end of the world to the other." The four corners mean four dimensions (space and time) and do not refer to a flat earth.

Resurrecting people who have not followed Jesus
Luke 15:11-32 relates a parable of a man who had two sons. One asked for his inheritance early and then spent it all in reckless living. Later, he returned to his father, who prepared a banquet for him and killed the prize calf. His other son was jealous, but his father said: "'My son,' the father answered, 'you are always here with me, and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be happy, because your brother was dead, but now he is alive; he was lost, but now he has been found.'" This parable that means that the son was resurrected and accepted into heaven. The prize calf that was killed represents Jesus.

City on a hill
Matthew 5:14: "You are like light for the whole world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden."

This relates to the city of New Jerusalem, built on a hill.

Gaining your life
Matthew 10:39: "Those who try to gain their own life will lose it; but those who lose their life for my sake will gain it."

The verse number (10:39) may relate to the predicted time of the end (2039), and the quote implies that those who try to force their way into New Jerusalem will lose their life. The city should be built for the poor, those who Jesus came to represent.

The Old Testament god was Satan
The Old Testament creates a theology that advocates killing under many circumstances, and encouraged the Jews to fight and take the land of other people. The Old Testament god is shown to encourage war in many instances. In addition, he promotes a theology where disasters and wars against the Jews are implied to act as punishment for not following the Old Testament Laws.

The real God (Jesus) speaks through the Old Testament using parables. The Universe has been arranged so that the text is relevant even though the teaching is false.

In Matthew 5:17, Jesus says that he did not come to do away with the Law and the teachings of the prophets but to make their teachings come true. He is referring to the parables in the Law (e.g. Leviticus represents the traditions in the church) and not to the Law itself. The teachings of the prophets contain parables and information about the time of the end as discussed in other articles.

Moses and the parting of the Red Sea
The sea allowed the Israelites to escape, but drowned the Egyptians who wanted to keep them as slaves. This reflects the purpose of the plagues that involve the sea. The Israelites represent the oppressed, and the Egyptians represent the wealthy and the oppressors, paralleling the story in the book of Exodus.

The number of stars in the sky
There are an estimated 100 billion stars in our galaxy. This is the same as the total number of people estimated to have lived on the Earth (links: 1 and 2). Like our solar system (where everything revolves around the sun), the stars are thought to revolve around a black hole at the centre of our galaxy. Jesus is represented by the sun; the Son of God. Each star represents an angel. The black hole represents something Holy (i.e. God). This fulfills Genesis 22:17 where Abraham was told, "I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven." As described in a subsequent section, Abraham's activities are a parable about my own.

The Authenticity of Revelation
Revelation was one of many apocalyptic books that could have been included in the Bible. Revelation states the number of the beast (666). It is the 66th book of the Bible and is thought to have been written in 66AD, giving parable-based evidence for its authenticity. This is in contrast to the other letters that are included after the Gospels.

Number of the beast
The number of the beast can be found all over creation. For example, 666 is found in oil (responsible for war, pollution and the advancement of technology) and diamonds (misuse of money and exploitation of Africa). Both are made of carbon atoms, which contain six protons, six neutrons and six electrons. Carbon is often found in six-membered rings in organic chemicals. Oil may be referred to in Genesis (in some versions of the Bible) and the Ten Commandments as the "water under the Earth" (e.g. Exodus 20:4, KJV Bible).

There are two numbers of the beast, 616 and 666, depending on the scripture used. That is perhaps because there are two primary false prophets: Muhammad and St. Paul. However, 666 primarily refers to Solomon as described in this article.

Bees in a lion
The riddle of the bees in the lion (Judges chapter 14) is probably a linguistic parable for a beast (the first beast, 666, is represented by a lion in the book of Daniel). The number six is associated with bees by the hexagonal shape of their honeycomb and their six legs.

Honeycomb is then used elsewhere in the Bible to represent conventional wisdom. For example, the word is used frequently in the book of Proverbs (the self-proclaimed wise sayings). Saul is introduced in the Bible as a man looking for some donkeys in Zuph. Zuph means 'honeycomb' and Saul represents Paul, whose real name is Saul.

Bees also represent spiritual wisdom. They form colonies in which they love their neighbour as themselves (they do this because they are all sisters). In addition, every bee is prepared to die for the colony; when a bee stings something it dies. The letter 'B' sounds like 'bee', and is the second letter in the alphabet (the number two relates to the second coming, and can be thought to represent a follower of Jesus).

In 1 Samuel 14:27, Jonathan ate honeycomb (wisdom) and his eyes were enlightened. This is a parable, where Jonathan represents myself (his name sounds like John the Baptist, and was a friend of David who represents Jesus). He ate food when his father Saul had told everyone not to eat, much like Paul condemns anyone for eating spiritual food of Jesus; anyone who does so can teach the true religion, which is opposed by the teachings of Paul. The honeycomb (wisdom) represents the spiritual knowledge gained, and is much like the fruit of the tree of knowledge that Eve ate.

Similarly, in Matthew 3:4, John the Baptist's food is described as being "locusts and wild honey". John the Baptist is a parable about my activities, and the honey refers to spiritual wisdom.

Friarbird
There are many parables associated with this bird. A friar is a type of priest. The word sounds like 'fry', a method of cooking, linking the priesthood with hell. The friarbird is part of the honeyeater family, and honey is associated with 666/wisdom. The scientific name for the genus is Philemon, one of the letters of Paul, although it has probably been named in this way deliberately. However, as discussed in the letter about Paul, the letter to Philemon is very obviously of no use, suggesting that the same could be said about friars.

Maccabees
The books of Maccabees form part of the apocrypha supported by the Catholic Church. The word contains the marker 'bees' suggesting conventional wisdom (666). The apocrypha was added into the Bible by the Catholic Church to justify beliefs such as purgatory. 2 Maccabees 12:44-45: "For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should have risen again, it had been superfluous and vain to pray for the dead. And also in that he perceived that there was great favour laid up for those that died godly, it was an holy and good thought. Whereupon he made a reconciliation for the dead, that they might be delivered from sin."

Jacob
The article on Solomon describes how wisdom is represented by the number 666. The opposite of wisdom is foolishness. 1 Samuel 25:3 describes a man called Nabal whose name means 'a fool'. The opposite of 'Nabal' (using the reverse spelling) is 'Laban'. Therefore Laban represents wisdom/666. Laban was also a Syrian, and Syria is used to represent Paul (for example Syria is the 666th place in the Bible).

In Genesis 29:20-30, Jacob worked for seven years for each the two daughters of Laban, indicating the length of time that we have been under the influence of 666/wisdom (approximately 4000 years), since false commandments were first introduced into the Bible by Abraham (e.g. circumcision, the tithe etc.) who was alive around 2000BC. Seven years represents 2000 years as described in the letter on "The Time of the End".

Jacob worked seven years for Leah (2000BC-0AD) and another seven years for Rachel (0AD-2000AD). Leah represents modern Christians who follow Paul. Rachel represents true followers of Jesus. Rachel was Jacob's favourite wife.

Jacob was able to take Laban's sheep and goats away from him; this represents people (the sheep) starting to follow Jesus rather than ideologies such as the teachings of Paul.

Earlier in the book of Genesis, Jacob was able to take his brother Esau's birthright as the firstborn son just by feeding him some food. This may refer to the interaction between myself (represented by Eve) and Simon Peter (represented by Adam). The names Adam and Edom (Esau's other name) mean 'red', and this was the colour of the food that Jacob gave to Esau. It suggests that I take Simon Peter's birthright (as the original chief disciple of Jesus) by feeding him spiritual food 2000 years later; perhaps I am able to do this because I read (pronounced in the same way as 'red') and understood the Bible properly.

Probabilities
This calculation is a very rough estimate of the probability that two numbers of the beast (616) have occurred by random chance in prominent places within Islam.

• There are 616 years between the birth of Jesus and the revelation that Muhammad received (6BC is the most widely accepted date for the birth of Jesus).

• Verse 61:6 in the Koran falsely quotes Jesus as saying that he will be followed by a prophet called Ahmed.

2 x (1/1600) x (2/6234) = 0.0000004 or one in 2.5 million.

Mosques
Mosques (Islamic places of worship) are covered with geometric patterns, reflecting mathematical precision that could be associated with conventional wisdom (666). The place of worship sounds like 'mosquito', a blood-sucking parasitic insect.

The book of Job
Job is about a man who is described as having been tested by Satan. Satan received permission to do this from the Old Testament god. Job was tested through the loss of wealth, family and health. Job remained faithful to the Old Testament god and his wealth was restored. Apart from the obvious message (remain faithful to God) there appears to be no parable-based significance to the text in this book; i.e. the book seems to have no purpose. This may be a parable in itself – Job has no purpose, meaning that modern careers (jobs) have no purpose; everything that people are currently working towards that is not in line with what Jesus says will have no relevance in a short period of time (e.g. marketing, advertising, management, consulting, law and medicine). Therefore, we have a choice between a complete waste of time in the workplace, or giving up our jobs to follow Jesus, the results of which will last for eternity. In choosing to follow Jesus, people will lose their wealth and possibly their families, giving added meaning to the book of Job.

Siloam and 9/11
John 9:11 talks about Siloam. Luke 13:4 talks about a tower falling there. This is a parable about the Twin Towers disaster.

In Luke 13:4, Jesus asked if the disciples thought that the people who died when the tower fell were any worse than anyone else in Jerusalem. In John 9:11, Jesus tells someone to wash their eyes in the pool of Siloam to restore their sight. Therefore, God influenced the date of the attack on the Twin Towers to generate a parable that indicates spiritual blindness. The Twin Towers were a major financial centre for America.

9/11 is also the same as the phone number for the American emergency services. It is as if God dialed 911 to say, "look America there's a big emergency here." Additional 9/11 verses mentioned on this website are Acts 9:11 (Paul was in the house of Judas, representing the betrayal of Jesus), 1 Corinthians 9:11 (advocates the payment of priests) and Daniel 9:11 (a warning about the plagues).

John 19:29
When Jesus was crucified, he was given vinegar. Wine turns into vinegar when it has been left for a long time (the alcohol turns into vinegar, and the wine becomes bad). Wine is used to represent true teaching. This suggests that the teachings about the crucifixion are bad. His crucifixion is said to remove people's sin; this is the idol of forgiveness that the church worships. It is false teaching, because the sins that churchgoers commit still cause suffering; sins are not teleported to 27AD to vanish with Jesus on the cross. This is easily proven by asking a churchgoer to make a small scratch on the skin of another person; this causes the other person pain and suffering, and the action that led to this suffering was sin. This sin was not put to death on the cross with Jesus, because the scratch still remains on the other person's skin. Forgiveness from Jesus for this sin would have no meaning, because it did not cause Jesus any suffering; the forgiveness must come from the person who suffered. Hence, the true nature of sin and forgiveness is completely different to that preached by the Church.

The Church tries to justify their beliefs by using analogies such as God as a parent. The argument is that if you sin against one of his children, then this makes him upset as a parent and you require forgiveness from him. However, this implies a parental bond that is a genetic consequence of human parenting, and would not be expected to be found between God and ourselves. Churchgoers also argue that they are forgiven by God even though their sins cause suffering, due to their belief in Paul's idol of forgiveness. However, phrases such as 'sins are put to death on the cross' and 'Jesus takes away our sins' are false teaching. A sin 'dies' immediately after it has caused suffering, because it is the action that causes suffering. If sins were put to death on the cross, then it would be expected that sins would 'die' before causing suffering. In fact, the idea that sins can die, cling to a person, be removed or washed away in a church baptism are false metaphors, because they are actions not objects.

Peter's denial
Peter denied Jesus three times, during which he "warmed himself" by the fire – this suggests that denial of Jesus puts us in danger of hell fire.

Barabbas
Matthew 27:16: "At that time there was a well-known prisoner named Jesus Barabbas."

Barabbas was released instead of Jesus before the crucifixion. Barabbas was actually called Jesus in some versions of the Bible. There are two possible reasons: (a) Barabbas was one of the people who Jesus came to teach about (imprisoned and about to be executed). (b) Barabbas was a rebel involved in a riot against the Roman government (Mark 15:7); the teachings of Jesus are also directed towards rebellion against governments and ideologies such as Pauline theology and consumerism.

Scribe of the Kingdom of Heaven
Matthew 13:51-52: "Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old."

I am a "scribe" (writer) who "is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven" (following Jesus). The old treasure probably refers to the teachings of Jesus, and the new treasure probably refers to parables from the Holy Spirit.

Who laboured first?
John 4:38: "I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours."

This verse suggests that other people (from previous Universes) are responsible for administering our Universe, and we are responsible for setting up the New Age. See "Cool Stuff" for further details.

Eve formed out of Adam
In the Genesis story of Adam and Eve, Eve was formed out of a rib taken from Adam. It is reflected by the discovery of XY (male) and XX (female) chromosomes – men have a 'rib' missing.

The story also has additional implications. Eve was formed out of Adam in the sense that I am following Jesus – see the letter on Adam and Eve. Adam represents Jesus and Peter, and Eve represents Mary Magdalene, Paul and I.

Song of Solomon
The Song of Solomon is a love letter that reflects the relationship between Jesus and his followers. Verses 1:5-6 suggest that the "keeper of the vineyard" will be "black", reflecting the population of New Jerusalem, the sin bearers of our society who are mostly in Africa. "Mother's children were angry with me" – the term "mother" refers to Paul (via me – see "About the Author" and "Who is Jesus? Who is Paul?"), and Paul's children are churchgoers.

Wives in Proverbs
Wives are often used as a parable for followers of Jesus. Unfaithful wives and adultery are often used as a parable for following Paul. Proverbs 31:10-31 talks about a good wife who "plants a vineyard" (this is where wine comes from, representing spiritual teaching).

Proverbs 25:24 talks about a "nagging wife", which could be thought to represent those who pray to God about disasters but do little in terms of practical help – this is like 'nagging at God'.

Jeremiah 23:7-8
"The time is coming," says the Lord, "when people will no longer swear by me as the living God who brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt. Instead, they will swear by me as the living God who brought the people of Israel out of a Northern land and out of all the other countries where I had scattered them." Between 600BC and 300BC the people of Israel migrated towards the West and to other countries. It is more than likely that we are descendants of the twelve tribes of Israel. This quote refers to the nominally Christian countries, many of which are in the north.

Isaiah 58:3-12
This passage describes Pauline worship and goes on to describe the type of worship that we should be engaging in. Fasting is used to represent sacrifice. Finally, it ends with the assurance that we "will be known as the people who rebuilt the walls, who restored the ruined houses," which is a reference to alleviating poverty and building New Jerusalem.

The people ask, "Why should we fast if the Lord never notices? Why should we go without food if he pays no attention?"

The Lord says to them, "The truth is that at the same time you fast, you pursue your own interests and oppress your workers. Your fasting makes you violent, and you quarrel and fight. Do you think this kind of fasting will make me listen to your prayers? When you fast, you make yourselves suffer; you bow your heads low like a blade of grass and spread out sackcloth and ashes to lie on. Is that what you call fasting? Do you think I will be pleased with that?

"The kind of fasting I want is this: Remove the chains of oppression and the yoke of injustice, and let the oppressed go free. Share your food with the hungry and open your homes to the homeless poor. Give clothes to those who have nothing to wear, and do not refuse to help your own relatives.

"Then my favour will shine on you like the morning sun, and your wounds will be quickly healed. I will always be with you to save you; my presence will protect you on every side. When you pray, I will answer you. When you call to me, I will respond.

"If you put an end to oppression, to every gesture of contempt, and to every evil word; if you give food to the hungry and satisfy those who are in need, then the darkness around you will turn to the brightness of noon. And I will always guide you and satisfy you with good things. I will keep you strong and well. You will be like a garden that has plenty of water, like a spring of water that never goes dry. Your people will rebuild what has long been in ruins, building again on the old foundations. You will be known as the people who rebuilt the walls, who restored the ruined houses."

"Lord, how long will I live? When will I die? Tell me how soon my life will end."

"I am about to die from your blows."

"Indeed we are no more than a puff of wind!"

"before I go away and am no more."

The number '39' refers to the time of the end, 2039 (see "The Time of the End").

Seven Days of Creation
According to the Jewish calendar, Adam was created in 3761 BC, and it will have been 6000 years since that time in 2239, 200 years into the New Age. Since a day is like a thousand years to God (Psalms 90:4), these 6000 years represent the six days of creation, with the next thousand years representing the Sabbath, or New Age, during which God rested. The traditional Christian Sabbath day is Sunday, which contains the word 'sun' (Son). The Jewish Sabbath is Saturday, the first three letters of which are shared with the word 'Satan'.

Rising on the third day
Jesus is said to have been raised from death on the third day. There is a parable in Luke 2:41-52 about the three days. When Jesus was a boy, his parents lost him. They found him again after searching for three days (Luke 2:46). He was in the Temple and he told his parents, "Didn't you know that I had to be in my Father's house?" (Luke 2:49). This parable means that after 'three days', Jesus is in heaven. It also parallels the idea that his spiritual parent searches for him by following his teachings (Mary the mother of Jesus, see "About the Author").

Jesus resurrected after three days?
Personally, I am uncertain about whether the apostles saw Jesus three days after he was crucified, because the endings to the four Gospels differ so widely. Additionally, it is said that Jesus "opened their eyes to the scripture" – this clearly did not happen, otherwise the apostles would have taught people to follow Jesus.

Luke 24:31-32
Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, but he disappeared from their sight. They said to each other, "Wasn't it like a fire burning in us when he talked to us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?"

Further evidence comes from Mark 16:17-18: "Believers will be given the power to perform miracles: they will drive out demons in my name; they will speak in strange tongues; if they pick up snakes or drink any poison, they will not be harmed; they will place their hands on sick people, who will get well." This quote is attributed to the resurrected 'Jesus' which mentions two things that he did not say while he was alive (the closest is in Luke 10:19 where Jesus says, "you can walk on snakes and scorpions and overcome the power of the Enemy, and nothing will hurt you"). Both of these things refer directly to Paul (he spoke in tongues and was bitten by a snake and was unharmed). I strongly advise that followers of Jesus do not rely on this teaching; drinking poison is not advisable.

Additional evidence comes from Luke 10:18 where Jesus says, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." Matthew 28:2-3 says, "an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled away the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow." This apparition did not claim to be Jesus, but it did tell the women at the tomb that he had been raised. It had the characteristics that Jesus mentioned in his description of Satan. Further evidence to link Satan with the traditional resurrection is associated with the moon, discussed below.

I believe that the three days is in fact a parable for 3000 years. To God, a day is like a thousand years (Psalms 90:4). However, Jesus is said to have risen right at the start of the third day; 2027AD. This is 2000 years since the death of Jesus, and there are additional parables that indicate the significance of this date, described in the next section.

David and Bathsheba
In 2 Samuel 11:1-26, David had a soldier called Uriah, who had a wife called Bathsheba. David liked Bathsheba so he arranged for Uriah to be in the front line of battle so that he would be killed. David then married Bathsheba and they had a son called Solomon.

This is a parable where David represents Jesus/God. Bathsheba is a linguistic parable for Bath (water-based plague) and Sheba (the queen of Sheba, representing myself as discussed below). The Hebrew word for seven (the number of plagues) is pronounced 'sheba'. Uriah represents my soul-mate, Simon Peter. The meaning of the Hebrew name 'Uriah' is 'fire of God', which also indicates a plague. The parable suggests that God arranges for Peter to die in the first plague while I am 'married to' (following) Jesus and perhaps die in the second plague. David and Bathsheba's son Solomon may represent the spiritual wisdom that emerges from the 'marriage' between myself and Jesus.

The end of the book of Revelation says that the plagues will happen to anyone who adds to the book, so they should happen to both of us. This may be to avoid hypocrisy – i.e. the person who identifies and justifies the plagues should also experience them. Therefore, one of us should die in the first plague (the predicted tsunami) and one of us should die in the second (the predicted asteroid impact), and we should be resurrected for the other five (these probably relate to the environmental changes after the predicted asteroid impact).

It is quite possible that I could be killed before the time of the end. There are parables that suggest resurrections in 2014 (probably myself; see "The Time of the End") and 2027 (probably Jesus). When turned into letters of the alphabet, the number 2027 gives 'BBG' (baby Jesus) and there are twelve years between this date and 2039. There are two women in the Bible who are healed after twelve years, namely a woman with a blood disorder (Mark 5:25) and a girl who had died at the age of twelve (Mark 5:42). They are both healed at about the same time in the Gospels. The twelve year old Jesus mentioned earlier in this letter was also found "in [his] Father's house" (New Jerusalem) – Luke 2:49. In addition, the year 2027 is 2000 years since Jesus died, and would correspond to the idea that there is a resurrection at the start of the third day (i.e. after two full days, corresponding to 2000 years, since a day is like a thousand years to God, and Jesus is God; Psalms 90:4).

Abraham prepared to sacrifice Isaac
This story in Genesis relates to the predictions made in the previous section. Abraham (who represents me) was told to sacrifice his son (who represents Simon Peter). However, at the last moment, Abraham was told that he did not have to sacrifice his son and a ram was sacrificed instead. 'A ram' sounds like Aram (Syria), which could refer to those who worship Paul (America). This happened after three days traveling (Genesis 22:4), which parallels the three days between the death of Jesus and his resurrection (representing 2000 years as discussed above).

It is possible that this story is linked to the idea that Jesus went into the wilderness for forty days, just after being baptised by John the Baptist (Matthew 4:1). Baptism is a parable for death in the plagues, the forty days corresponds to 2007-2039 and the wilderness probably represents Africa. Therefore, it is possible that Peter could die and be reborn on the same day (25th December 2007). His rebirth would most likely be into Africa. However, it is possible that he could die in the plague but be resuscitated or revived rather than being reborn. Jesus was hungry for the forty days and nights, which is suggestive of the poverty in Africa, but also a lack of spiritual food. If Peter is born on Christmas Day 2007, then he will be 33 years old in 2039, the age of Jesus on his crucifixion. This suggests that Peter would also die in the second plague.

The queen of Sheba
In Matthew 12:42, Jesus says, "The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgement with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here."

The queen of the south is the queen of Sheba in 1 Kings 10:1. She represents myself and Solomon represents Jesus. The word 'Solomon' sounds a bit like 'Son of Man'. This is a similar concept to Eve taking from the tree of knowledge, a scriptural parable that represents learning from the teachings of Jesus (this is spiritual wisdom, represented by Solomon).

2 Samuel 20:1 describes a Benjaminite called Sheba son of Bichri (sounds like 'son of a bitch'). Paul was a Benjaminite and he is probably the 'bitch'. Where Jesus refers to people as 'dogs' he is referring to followers of this 'bitch'. In 2 Samuel 20:22, Sheba's head is cut off (note the four twos in this verse number). This part of the Bible identifies the queen of Sheba with myself, and provides further evidence for my future role (see "Who is Jesus? Who is Paul?"); both John the Baptist and St. Paul are thought to have been decapitated, and represent my present and future roles.

Star Constellations
Simon Peter is named Cephas by Jesus. This sounds like the constellation Cepheus, a king:

Cepheus is very close to Draco, a dragon:

The brightest star in the sky is Sirius, the Dog Star. Sirius means 'scorching' in Greek. It is in the constellation Canis Major, the Big Dog.

'Sirius' sounds like Syria (the 666th place in the Bible), the place where Paul was going when he received his vision. 'Dog' is the reverse spelling of 'God'. Therefore, both 'Sirius' and 'Dog' represent Satan, and the 'scorching' refers to hell. Stars refer to angels, and it is interesting to note that Satan is the brightest star other than the sun (the word 'sun' sounds like 'Son' and represents Jesus).

Idols on Mars
God may have put faces on Mars to tell the people at NASA that they are guilty of idolatry – they create and fly expensive spacecraft while there are 2.5 billion people in poverty.

Moon god 'Sin'
Sin, the moon god, was one of many gods worshipped by the Babylonians. This god reigned over Ur, the city of Abraham. The sun and moon are exactly the same size from our perspective. If the sun represents the Son (Jesus) and the moon represents Sin (Paul), then this could be a parable suggesting that the teachings of Jesus and Paul are equally strong, leaving us with the choice of who to follow.

Further support for the moon as a representation of sin comes from Georg von Purbach, who is credited with introducing sines into trigonometry (abbreviated 'sin'). He is also noted for producing a detailed table of lunar eclipses, and a crater on the moon is named after him. Other things associated with the moon include:

• Islam: the symbol of Islam is the moon and a star, and they use a lunar calendar. The Jewish, Indian and Chinese calendars are also lunar. However, the Gregorian calendar used by Christian countries is based on the sun, and the year 0AD is the approximate year of birth of Jesus (the Son, which sounds like 'sun').

• Buddhism: many celebrations are on full moon days.

• Paul: the fourth day of creation is mentioned in "The Time of the End".

• The resurrection after three days, supporting the idea that the apostles saw Satan rather than Jesus: (a) The lunar calendar is used to calculate the date of Easter. (b) Easter is named after the Saxon moon goddess Eostre.

• The Moonies (a Christian cult founded by a man called Reverend Moon, who claims to be God).

• Madness has spiritual causes. Madness is traditionally associated with the moon; the word 'lunacy' is derived from the word 'lunar'.

• The first plague (full moon).

• The second plague (see "Linguistic Markers").

• Myself, through parables such as the one about Rhiannon (below).

There are many named regions and features on the moon, for example:

• Theophilus is a lunar crater, and is the name of the man to whom the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles are addressed.

• Atlas (a major source of pictorial parables) is a lunar crater and is also the name of one of Saturn's moons. The idea that this has negative associations could refer to a major parable that comes from the atlas; the whore of Babylon, who represents sin.

• Mare (plural, Maria) is a name used to denote the 'seas' on the moon. The word sounds like 'Mary'. One sea is called Mare Nectaris, which also includes the word nectar, a sugary liquid from flowers that bees use to make honey; this is an association with 666 as described earlier.

• Sinus is name that refers to lunar 'bays'.

• Palus (sounds like Paul) is a name for lunar 'swamps'.

• Catena (contains 'cat' – 666) is a name for lunar crater chains.

• Campbell is a lunar crater (a high profile British politician of this name is called Alastair). Aristarchus (a similar name to my own) is also a lunar crater, and a man of this name is referred to in Paul's letters.

• Many lunar craters are named after scientists, who are associated with conventional wisdom (666).

Lunar craters are caused by asteroid impacts, paralleling the second predicted plague. The parables associated with named features of the moon are almost entirely linked to craters and regions that would contain water if it were present (bays, seas and swamps), suggesting strong links between sin (represented by the moon) and the water-based plagues of the time of the end.

The planetary moons are usually named after characters from Greek mythology. One of Jupiter's moons is called Sinope. Sinope became the mother of Syrus, and a city was named after him. Syrus sounds like Syria, associated with Paul.

Ancient symbols for gold and silver
Ancient symbols for gold and silver are the sun and the moon. The gold represented by the sun (or Son) is probably Solomon's gold (666) mentioned in the letter about Solomon and Revelation 3:18, which represents the teachings of Jesus. The silver represented by the moon (sin) is the money that is taken by the priesthood (this is represented by the betrayal of Jesus in exchange for silver).

Goddess Rhiannon
The name of my sister, and middle name of my soul mate (spiritual sister). Rhiannon was the Welsh Celtic Goddess of the moon who chose a prince called Pwyll (pronounced 'Paul') to be her husband. They had a baby who mysteriously vanished, and Rhiannon was blamed for its death. Rhiannon's punishment lasted for seven years until she discovered that her child was alive. Rhiannon's story seems to be a parable about my life rather than that of Simon Peter.

Alastor
Alastor ("avenger") is a god who the ancient Greeks called upon to gain vengeance over those who had wronged them. My name is pronounced in a similar way, implying that I am avenging the poor.

Destruction of the temple
In AD70 (shortly after the death of Jesus), the Romans invaded Israel and destroyed the temple for sacrifices (which has never been rebuilt), showing that Jesus is for everyone and that animal sacrifices are no longer necessary (see John 11:48). However, the Jewish religion continues to this day because Satan altered the tone of the Bible in later books to remove the need for animal sacrifices:

Jeremiah 7:22
I gave your ancestors no commandments about burnt offerings or any other kinds of sacrifices, when I brought them out of Egypt.

Ezekiel 20:25
Then I gave them laws that are not good and commands that do not bring life. I let them defile themselves with their own offerings, and I let them sacrifice their own firstborn sons. This was to punish them and show them that I am the Lord.

Ragnarok
'Ragnarok' means the end of the world in Norse mythology. It contains the word 'rok', which sounds like 'rock', a parable about the asteroid that is predicted to impact with the Earth in 2039.

An earthquake after the death of Jesus
Matthew 27:54 describes an earthquake that took place after the death of Jesus. This parallels the events of the time of the end.

Adad
Adad was the Mesopotamian god of storms. The word contains 'dad' (Father), implying that God has control over natural disasters. Similarly, an aoudad is a north African sheep; sheep are used by Jesus to represent his followers, and many of the people he teaches about are in Africa.

Daddy longlegs
This is a type of insect also known as a harvestman, linking daddy (the Father) with the harvest (the time of the end).

Rainbow
A rainbow has seven colours (one for each plague) and is arc shaped (Ark of the Covenant and Noah's Ark). The rainbow is mentioned in the story of Noah as a promise from God that a flood will never happen again (note however that it hasn't happened yet). I suspect that an asteroid impact into the sea would put a lot of water into the atmosphere, making impressive rainbows.

The first colour of the rainbow represents the first plague. It is red, which may link to the parable of Jacob and Esau described earlier. Similarly, the first plague in Exodus turned the Nile into red blood and the Egyptians were drowned in the Red Sea. These are more parables that predict the death of Simon Peter in the first plague.

Salty sea
The plagues that involve the sea are there to make us 'salty'. Salt is used to represent the ability to follow Jesus.

Flood stories
The story of a great flood was common in many ancient beliefs, including the Egyptians and the Assyrians. In fact the Assyrian version of the story was found on a stone tablet in Nineveh (the city that Jonah was sent to warn). This tablet (part of the epic of Gilgamesh, written on twelve tablets) is now in the British Museum.

In Greek mythology, Deucalion, the son of Prometheus was warned that Zeus would flood the Earth. He built an Ark and went in with his wife Pyrrha. They survived the flood, and were able to repopulate the Earth by throwing stones over their heads, which became human. The linguistic marker 'lion' (666) links the flood story with wisdom.

Raining cats and dogs
This is an English phrase which is used to indicate a heavy downpour of rain. Cats and dogs are associated with 666 and Satan respectively. Rain refers to true teaching, so raining cats and dogs refers to true teaching about issues associated with 666 (wisdom; spiritual and conventional) and Satan.

Hot blue flame
Very hot flames are blue in colour. This is because the fires of hell take the form of water (tsunami etc.), which is blue. The fires of hell are particularly hot.

Bern
Switzerland is famous for its bank accounts; it is considered a safe place to bank because of confidentiality and the neutrality of the country (it does not take sides in wars). The capital city, Bern sounds like 'burn'.

Global Warming
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gas emissions that result from burning fuel in industrialised nations. The average global temperature has increased over a number of years. Heat represents hell, and the increasing temperature parallels the gradual approach of the time of the end.

Hot parts of the world

The area between 10 degrees and 40 degrees north of the equator contains about two thirds of the global population, and has the most followers of non-Christian religions (Islam, Hinduism etc.). It is also one of the hottest areas in the world, alluding to hell fire.

North and south
There are consistent parables that use the idea that north is bad and south is good. For example, many sin bearers live in Africa in the south, whereas the industrialised 'West' is mostly north of the equator.

Penguins (birds, representing angels) live exclusively in Antarctica, whereas polar bears live within the Arctic circle in the north (the second beast that Daniel saw was a bear and represents Paul).

As shown in the letter on "The Time of the End", there is a picture of an angel with a trumpet outlined by Antarctica, which is in the south. Santa Claus is attributed to Lapland and the North Pole.

Saul was converted on the road to Damascus, which is north of Jerusalem where Jesus died. The kings of the north and south in the book of Daniel probably refer to Paul and Jesus.

This difference between north and south does not mean that one direction is more evil than the other (they are both equally good). However, to aid in the interpretation of parables, the directions are polarised.

Dark day
"The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord comes." (Joel 2:31). This probably relates to the effect of a volcanic dust cloud on the sun and the moon (see "Luke 21:21"). However, it is interesting to note that there was a dark day on 19th May 1780 in America (New England), which was not an eclipse. It was during the American War of Independence. Despite the creation of more freedom, the War of Independence did indeed pave the way for a more complete separation from God, and gave rise to the place represented by Babylonia in the Bible. I share my birthday with George Washington, the first President of the USA, who helped to win this war, perhaps linking with St. George (below).

St. George
St. George is the patron saint of England. He is famous for killing a dragon, and his flag is the cross. I am English and I am helping to kill evil (represented by a dragon).

British
The word 'British' is Hebrew. It means 'the People of the Covenant' or in other words, 'the People of Israel'.

Fate
Fate and Father are right next to each other in the English dictionary.

Luck
Luck is the word after Lucifer in the English dictionary.

First World War
If you take the number 1914 (start of World War 1) and separate it into 19, 9 and 14, and turn these numbers into letters of the alphabet (A=1, B=2 etc.) you get SIN.

The Second World War and knowledge
1939 changed into 19, 3 and 9 and converted into letters gives 'SCI', implying that the suffering resulting from the Second World War was fueled by scientific advancement; nuclear weapons were first invented and used to kill people in this war.

Crimean War
This war was between Russia and an alliance between France, Britain, The Kingdom of Sardinia and the Ottoman Empire. It started as a result of conflicting claims on the Holy Land (Israel) by the so-called Christian countries. The word 'Crimean' contains the word 'Crime'.

Wedding anniversaries
Wedding anniversaries are associated with particular items. The 6th anniversary is associated with sugar (discussed in the context of child labour in "Tracing Sin to Death") and the 60th is associated with diamond. The use of the number '6' implies negative connotations.

Gemstones
Each month is associated with a particular gemstone. April is associated with diamond. Diamond is associated with 666 because it is composed of carbon atoms that contain 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons. April is associated with 666 because of the original prediction associated with April 1st, linked to foolishness. Foolishness is the opposite of 666, which represents wisdom; conventional wisdom is a mindset that is opposed to following Jesus.

Seven sages of Greece
There are seven wise men of ancient Greece famed for their wisdom, one of whom is Solon of Athens, whose name sounds like Solomon. He is associated with the phrase, "nothing in excess," which is in opposition to the demands of the two commandments of Jesus. The word 'sage' means wise man, but it is very similar to the word 'savage'.

St. John of Damascus
St. John of Damascus wrote orthodox literature such as "The Fount of Wisdom". 'Damascus', 'orthodox' and 'wisdom' relate to Paul, whereas 'John' relates to myself. This is a parable-based link between Paul and myself, described in more detail in "Who is Jesus? Who is Paul?"

John the Baptist and Herodias
John was beheaded when he told Herod that he should not be married. His wife felt her security and position threatened and caused Herod to kill him. I am represented by John, and I am giving similar advice in "Relationships".

Scilly Isles
The largest of the Isles of Scilly is St. Mary's. 'Scilly' sounds like 'silly' and relates to the concept of foolishness verses wisdom. It implies that I am foolish, which is good because conventional wisdom is opposed to the teachings of Jesus.

Queen Mary
The first English female monarch was called Mary. This relates to Mary Magdalene (see "About the Author") – the first angel. Queen Mary had a phantom pregnancy, and was known as 'Bloody Mary' because a large number of protestant ministers were executed during her reign.

Mary of Egypt
Most days of the year are associated with a particular saint. The 1st of April is associated with Mary of Egypt, a parable relating to myself.

Nursery Rhyme
Mary had a little lamb
His fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.

This nursery rhyme may relate to the concept of asking for spiritual food. I tend to find it wherever I look for it, so the lamb (Jesus and the Holy Spirit) goes where I go.

Two becoming one
The idea that a male and female angel becomes one individual is discussed elsewhere. An angel is a person who has died and become reborn into the opposite gender, so they incorporate both genders. When the symbols for male and female are joined, they form a symbol which can be placed on a clock face, and reads 'half one' or half of a whole one. 'Whole one' sounds like 'Holy one', or God.

Catch-22
Catch-22 is a book written by Joseph Heller. It contains a military rule called 'Catch-22', the self-contradictory circular logic of which, for example, prevents anyone from avoiding combat missions:

"There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to."

Catch-22 applies to my role and the number '22' has significance as described elsewhere. When I started to follow Jesus, I found parables that indicated that the world was in imminent danger, so I had to continue to find more parables and warn the world. However, the fact that this website has been written is the justification for the imminent danger to the world (the plagues would not be effective in drawing people's attention to the teachings of Jesus if no one knew why they were happening). It shows that everything is organised simultaneously over time by God.

Selah
Selah is a place name in the Bible, meaning 'the rock' and sometimes referred to as 'the rock' in the text. It is also a term used in several Psalms, possibly meaning 'stop and listen'. Jesus and Peter are referred to as a stone (e.g. Matthew 21:42) and a rock (Cephas) respectively, so perhaps we should stop and listen to the teachings of Jesus and parables from the Holy Spirit.

Prayer is speaking rather than listening. One reason I think that prayer is ineffective is the implicit selfishness (asking God to fulfill our will) rather than listening to what God says and doing it.

Alpha and Omega
Jesus says that he is alpha and omega, the beginning and the ending (Revelation 22:13). If a capital omega is chopped in half, there are two twos facing each other; the significance of the number 'two' in relation to the time of the end is discussed elsewhere. A lowercase alpha looks like a fish. Jesus talks about people being the least and greatest in the context of serving people. The lowercase alpha suggests that Jesus is the least person, and therefore the greatest servant (see "Rules are There to be Broken").

α Ω

Symbol of Leo
The sign of the Zodiac for Leo resembles the Greek letter omega. Leo is a lion, representing wisdom. Omega represents my activities.

Lambda
Light is used as a parable for the teachings of Jesus. A property of light is its wavelength. Wavelength is represented by the Greek letter lambda, containing the word 'lamb', an animal sometimes used to represent Jesus. Lambda is also the symbol for homosexuality, a traditional outcast group.

λ

The letter 'L'
The letter 'L' sounds like 'Hell'. It is a rotated number '7', representing the seven plagues. This letter is the English equivalent to the Greek letter lambda. In addition to representing wavelength, lambda is also used to represent half life, a property of radioactive materials such as those used to create nuclear weapons. As mentioned in "The Time of The End", the atomic number of plutonium-239, a component of nuclear weapons, resembles the predicted date of the time of the end (2039). An asteroid impact is more powerful than a nuclear weapon.

Hebrew Alphabet
The second letter of the Hebrew Alphabet looks like a '2', and there are 22 letters in total:   ב

There is a Hebrew letter called Sin (or Shin):   ש    The letter resembles three musical notes and is pronounced in a similar way to 'sing'. It is worth noting that the written Hebrew language does not use vowels. The musical terms 'hymn' and 'rhythm' have no vowels, suggesting a parallel between Christian and Jewish worship. Words without vowels are very unusual in the English language. 'Crypt' is another example, a burial chamber often found in cathedrals and churches.

There are several letters that resemble the number '7':   ד   ו   ך   ל   ן   ף   ק   ר

Arabic alphabet
Arabic is the main language associated with Islam. The Arabic alphabet includes the following characters:

• Sin   س
• Sin    ش
• Sad    ص
• Dad    ض

The character called 'Dad' perhaps links the Father with Satan (the same person/people perform both roles of God).

1616
Shakespeare died in 1616, a year which contains the number of the beast. Shakespeare is often compared to the Bible in terms of importance, when it isn't important at all.

Parable-based support for popular music
Singing hymns in churches as an alternative for following Jesus is a false ideology, and there are many parables to show this. However, other forms of music are a way to love your neighbour as yourself, because people like listening to music. Parables in support of popular music include The Spice Girls Hit Single '2 become 1', which was number one in the UK charts on Christmas Day 1996. This is 2000 years since a popular predicted date of the birth of Jesus (4BC). Slash (Saul Hudson) was a guitar player for the rock band Gun's n' Roses; there are three links to God/Satan, namely Saul (Paul), Hudson (the whore of Babylon) and Rock (Peter). The first song/record produced by this band was called 'Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide', which is one way to describe what following Jesus is like (the amount of self sacrifice demanded by Jesus is similar to suicide, for example, "give up what you have, sell your possessions and give the money to the poor"). The Beatles' names were John, Paul, George and Starr, all of which relate in some way to God (St. Paul, John the Baptist, St. George and the sun). Their songs include 'All you need is love', 'I'll follow the Sun' and the psychedelic 'Luci[fer] in the sky with diamonds'.

Dr. Who
Dr. Who is a popular science fiction television series. Dr. Who is a Time Lord (he can travel to anywhere in space time). He engages in self-sacrificial service to others, and can be reborn.

Taoism/Daoism

The symbol for Taoism is a letter 'S' as in Satan; the mirror image of this symbol is also used.

Taoism is a peaceful religion which focuses on effortlessness, harmony and simplicity and there are positive aspects to this religion. However, the focus is on finding the Tao rather than helping the poor, and this is an abstract concept that is undefined in the text. Translating the Tao Te Ching has been difficult, and has resulted in a variety of interpretations of the original Chinese. Like Confucianism, Taoism promotes governmental control. The text is poetic and pleasant to read, and is considered to be 'deep', meaning that it contains randomly linked concepts and paradoxes such as, "There are times....when a square seems to have corners." (chapter 41, Rosenthal's Translation). The brain has a need to make sense of its environment, so religious texts that contain statements that make no sense cause the brain major problems. One reason why religious texts like these are claimed to be enlightened is because no one fully understands them; the text includes random linking and statements that have no real meaning, and a central concept (Tao) that is undefined. Making random statements in everyday conversation is also a technique in psychological bullying because it serves to confuse the victim (people spend a long time trying to attach significance to a random phrase). Most religious texts use this technique to some extent. This contrasts with the parables of Jesus, which really do have genuine meaning attached to them, and this meaning can be shown to be consistent.

6. Contradictory Parables

Usually, parables all lean in the same direction and support each other. Occasionally, there are contradictory parables. The reason for this may be to provoke discussion or present an opposing point of view, so that we choose the correct path by true standards rather than just relying on parables to tell us what to do.

Many contradictory parables relate to Solomon, 666 and wisdom, because the dual meaning of wisdom is used. One is common sense, which is opposition to doing what Jesus says. The other is listening to what Jesus says and learning from it (spiritual wisdom). Therefore, depending on context, Solomon/wisdom can be used to give opposite meanings. For example, Solomon built a temple that represents New Jerusalem. This is an example of where Solomon is used to represent spiritual wisdom rather than the mindset of common sense that is in opposition to following Jesus.

Contradictory linguistic markers
A contradictory parable is the use of the word Psalter, the instrument associated with Psalms and an alternative name for them. It contains the word 'salt' implying that Psalms represent true teaching, when their counterparts (hymns) are actually used as an alternative to following Jesus. The book of Psalms does contain parables (which makes it 'salty'), but the word 'salt' is still unexpected and emphasizes the need for caution when using linguistic markers. There are many parables that are associated with hymns; where there is a large amount of evidence to make a certain point, individual contradictions like this can be discounted as random. Comparisons between a random effect and genuine parables are described in the letters entitled "Pictorial Parables" and "Linguistic Markers", and the letters that look for parables in Hebrew and Greek words. Other contradictions include Saturnalia (the festival of Saturn, conducted near Christmas), which involved a positive aspect of a reversal of roles for masters and slaves (masters would wait on their slaves). The Trill theory discussed later in this letter has a number of parables in favour of it, but Trill contains the word 'ill' and the real meaning of the word is associated with music, a criticism of the Christian religion.

Eve and the Tree of Knowledge
One contradictory parable comes from Eve taking the fruit of the tree of knowledge. Eve represents myself following Jesus, and taking from the tree of knowledge represents the understanding of parables (one aspect of the first commandment of Jesus). Yet it is a snake that tempts Eve to do this, so the snake represents Jesus!

I believe that the roles of Satan and Jesus are played by the same person/people (two people having joined to become one God), and this could be the meaning behind the contradictory parable. However, it seems to present the opposite point of view, almost asking the question, "Is it right to follow Jesus?"

The answer to this question can be represented by a picture (below). If you have ever left food for birds, you will have seen them fighting over it. The picture represents this type of scenario, where people do not follow Jesus.

On the grounds of maximising efficiency and equal distribution of all resources, following Jesus is justified. Following Jesus is the optimal life strategy for all individuals.

However, this does not justify the seven plagues that can potentially kill six billion people. The justification for the plagues is approximately 100 billion people who have already died. The plagues are part of the process in which a society is created where people choose to follow Jesus, an environment where these 100 billion people can live peacefully. In addition, if the plagues did not happen, all six billion people who are presently alive would die anyway because no one would follow Jesus; this unnecessary death would continue in future generations. Since we are all going to die anyway, we might as well give rise to heaven and eternal life in doing so. More generally, this is probably why bad things (natural disasters and so on) are allowed to happen, because there is an indifference to death where death is inevitable. In general, people who are oppressed die sooner and go to heaven faster, whereas the rich tend to stay in hell for longer.

Why are the seven plagues necessary?

To answer this question, it is necessary to answer another one first: Given that it is so much better for all individuals to follow Jesus, why is it so difficult to persuade people to do it? There is an analogy that can be drawn with the chemical reaction that occurs during burning. A lump of coal does not react with the air at room temperature. It prefers to stay as a lump of coal. In fact, the coal would much rather be burned into a gas, because the gas is more stable and unreactive than a flammable lump of coal.

The graph shows the change in the total energy stored by the coal and the gas during this process. At the start, the coal has a lot of energy in it, but it cannot burn until heat is applied to it. This heat is the activation energy; coal ignites at about 500 degrees Celcius, but below this temperature it will not burn. When the coal starts to burn, it stays above this temperature, and can continue to burn. The gas released while the coal is burning has much less energy stored in it than coal, so it is much more stable.

Similarly, a selfless society is much more stable than a selfish society, because the individuals in a selfless society have far more of what they want for more of the time even though they are not acting in their own best interests. However, like the lump of coal, the selfish society would much rather stay as it is until a large amount of 'activation energy' (plagues) is applied.

The building of New Jerusalem
Jericho is described as "the city of palm trees". Palm trees are a parable for Jerusalem, since people put palm leaves in the path of Jesus as he returned there. Therefore, Jericho represents New Jerusalem. Further evidence comes from Joshua 6:26:

Cursed be the man before the Lord, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

My 'firstborn' is Simon Peter (as described elsewhere in this book). In Matthew 16:18, Jesus says that his Church will be built on Peter. New Jerusalem itself should be built on Point Peter on Mount Kenya. In Joshua chapter 6, Jericho is destroyed, and the number seven features prominently.

Further contradiction arises from the tower of Babel (Genesis chapter 11). The idea that the Babylonians built a tower to try to reach heaven and become like God is reminiscent of New Jerusalem. The Tower of Babel was destroyed. In addition, Jesus describes the destruction of the Temple in Mark 13:1-2.

A honeymoon is a traditional holiday that two people go on after getting married. In the context of following Jesus, the 'marriage' probably coincides with the first predicted plague (a parable for people starting to follow him). The honeymoon therefore refers to the things that happen after this time, and contains two linguistic markers; honey (666/wisdom) and moon (sin).

Perhaps these contradictions with the detailed design and location parables is designed to provoke the question, "should the city of New Jerusalem be built?" This will be an enormously expensive project that will benefit a tiny proportion of the world's poor. Would our resources be better used elsewhere?

Building New Jerusalem is justified assuming that the plagues take place because approximately 100 billion lives depend upon the infrastructure of that type of society being present. Therefore this project takes priority. However the plagues need not take place if everyone started to follow Jesus. Under those circumstances, building a city at 5000 metres above sea level would not be justified.

Decisions should be based upon what people are prepared to do; if many people do not follow Jesus (parables suggest that this will be the case) then the plagues are certainty and New Jerusalem is essential. The parable of the 1800 years discussed in "The Time of The End" stretches all the way to 2039, and represents the time during which Paul has influence. The story of Elijah also suggests that Paul continues to have influence until the time of the end, because Elijah spends 40 days (2007-2039) escaping from Jezebel, who represents Pauline theology as discussed in the letter about Elijah. Further evidence comes from the story of David and Goliath described in the letter about St. Paul. Goliath represents Pauline theology and challenged the Israelites for forty days before David killed him.

There is another argument – if we simply refuse to build New Jerusalem, then God may not be able to justify the plagues, since this would end the lives of everyone. However, what is more likely is that the plagues would still happen with very few survivors and no infrastructure remaining to help people follow Jesus. Consequently, instead of a New Age, there would be many more years of suffering for the survivors and their descendants. This is a Catch-22 situation which demands that New Jerusalem should be built. Parables suggest that it will be damaged during the plagues, but Joel 2:32 says that there will be survivors.

Jesus rebukes James and John
In Luke 9:55, Jesus rebukes James and John for wanting to call fire from heaven to destroy a village that rejected his teachings. In Luke 11:29, Jesus says that we will see the miracle of the prophet Jonah where a city did not get destroyed. These two verses suggest that it may be possible for the New Age to happen without needing all seven of the plagues, or that regions of the world that follow Jesus could be less affected by them.

7. Predictions of the Coming of Jesus

Saviour predicted
It wasn't only the Jewish religion that predicted Jesus. The Zoroastrians had the concept of the Saoshyant, or 'world saviour', a being who would be born from the Prophet's seed to a virgin mother. This person is predicted to save the world.

Isaiah 7:14
"Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." This is a clear prophecy about Jesus. There are more predictions in Isaiah 9:6, 11:2-4, 19:20, 28:16 and 32:1. In Isaiah 32:8, it is said that Jesus will stand for "liberal things" (KJV version) and this includes sexuality. Isaiah 14:12-17 is a prediction about Paul or myself.

More predictions about the coming of Jesus
Zechariah chapter 11 predicts that he is betrayed for 30 pieces of silver. Chapter 9 predicts him coming on a donkey.

Psalm 22
This Psalm prophesies how Jesus would be taken to the cross and crucified. It begins with his last words "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" It talks about how he was mocked and how "they have pierced my hands and feet", mentions that he would be "poured out like water" (a spear was thrust into his side and blood and water came out) and predicts that "they divide my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots" which did indeed happen. The number 22 has relevance as discussed elsewhere. This psalm links to the symbol of Saturn described earlier.

Killing
There is little difference between someone who loads a gun and shoots someone in the head, and someone else who sins in other (less high profile) ways, which also results in death. The desire to kill may not be present in the latter case, but the result is still the same.

Judge by true standards
True standards are the essence of the Gospel message. We can apply them to many situations in every day life. We can also use them to form strategies to tackle poverty and other issues. They are summarised by the two commandments of Jesus and demand that we break any law or social convention if our actions will serve to reduce suffering in the long term. The onus is on us to judge the right things to do rather than relying too much on the Bible (Luke 12:57).

Fasting
By true standards, fasting has no purpose. If you have food, eat it (although feel free to share it). When Jesus said that his followers would fast when he was taken away, he meant spiritual fasting (fasting from his spiritual food). In other words, there has been an absence of true teaching.

Matthew 9:15
"Jesus answered, 'Do you expect the guests at a wedding party to be sad as long as the bridegroom is with them? Of course not! But the day will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.'"

Ghost stories
Most ghost stories are probably true. Satan can pretend to be a ghost to give people the false belief that the dead walk the Earth in 'ghost' form.

How to explain no more Santa to Children
People put a man in charge of Christmas called Santa. He was supposed to give presents to everyone across the world. But Santa was lazy. He only gave presents to people in certain countries (like America and England), and missed out Africa and hoped no one would notice! God realised what was happening, and he was angry and banished Santa from the world forever. He looked at all the Christmas days that had gone by when Santa had missed out those children in Africa and He was very sad. He thought carefully about how he could make it up to them. "I know!" He said, "At Christmas I will tell people to give presents to people in Africa to help them to make up for this very bad thing that Santa has done." And so it was.

Paying tax
Matthew 17:25-26: "When Peter went into the house, Jesus spoke up first, 'Simon, what is your opinion? Who pays duties or taxes to the kings of this world? The citizens of the country or the foreigners?'
'The foreigners,' answered Peter.
'Well, then,' replied Jesus, 'that means that the citizens don't have to pay.'"

Following Jesus keeps us out of the taxation system because we are not earning; therefore citizens (of the Kingdom of God) do not have to pay taxes.

Idolatry
Traditionally, idolatry is where people pray or sacrifice to foreign gods. It could be described as any belief system that results in the suffering of others through action or inaction, or any ideology that is accepted by people that is in opposition to the teachings of Jesus. Alternative phrases to describe idolatry would be 'ceasing to follow Jesus' or 'not following Jesus'. Following Jesus means different things depending on the circumstances in which we find ourselves. For example, while there are 2.5 billion people in poverty, they should be the priority. However, we might find ourselves with two hours in the evening that can't be used to help the poor or anyone else. We might as well do whatever we want during these two hours, providing that it doesn't actively harm anyone. For someone committed to following Jesus, idolatry could be thought of as poor time management. Effective time management involves making the best use of our time and resources in the service of others. Usually we can be more effective if we take a break occasionally.

Everyone is selfish
All living creatures are selfish by nature. Sometimes it isn't obvious. For example, social bonding is innate in human behaviour because it is to the advantage of the individuals involved (e.g. mutual back scratching). True selfless behaviour requires an individual to intellectually override selfish behaviours. This is very difficult to do. Don't make the mistake of thinking that you are a bad person just because you find following Jesus an uphill struggle.

Where people rely on their emotional love for other people to determine how much they are prepared to serve, very little gets done. A large component of emotional love is an emotional need (the need to be loved) rather than the need to love others. The emotions, like all other aspects of humanity, are evolved to act in the selfish interests of the individual.

Satan and human nature
Mark 8:33: But Jesus turned round, looked at his disciples, and rebuked Peter. "Get away from me, Satan," he said. "Your thoughts don't come from God but from human nature!"

Human nature is selfish, but the teachings of Jesus advocate selflessness, the opposite of selfishness. Satan encourages selfishness. For example, the teachings of Paul provide carte blanche to sin by stating that the purpose of Jesus' life was to die on the cross and remove sin. This is clearly false teaching because those who worship in church still contribute to the capitalist society that is responsible for a large amount of poverty and suffering in the third world. In other words, their sin is not removed, because people still suffer and die because of it. People choose to follow Paul's teaching because it is easier than following the teachings of Jesus. Paul's satanic teachings play on human nature, which is to be selfish.

More about selfishness
If we want to be selfish and we love our neighbour as ourselves, this implies that we should be prepared to allow others to be selfish at our expense. The ideal society might consist of a mixture of selflessness and selfishness rather than everyone being selfless all the time.

Imagine if two people were starving, but they were both followers of Jesus and both selfless. They had one ration of food which could save the life of only one of them, but sharing it would not work because there would not be enough. What would happen? If both were selfless, then neither would eat the food because that would be selfish, yet this would result in both people dying when one of them could survive. If both people were selfish, then they would fight for the food, and one of them would win and survive. So in this case, selfishness appears to be the better option. However, there should be a way to solve the problem while still remaining selfless. One way would be to flip a coin (this is neither selfish or selfless; it relies on random chance). Another would be to arrange some kind of contest similar to a selfish fight, but the winner would be the one who does not eat the food (a selfless objective). Potentially, this type of problem could be encountered often. For example, a social convention in our society is to allow another person to go through a door before us; this is considered to be a very minor selfless act. If two people wanted to get through a door, but both acted selflessly, then neither would be able to go through. It could even be considered selfless to go through the door first and prevent this problem; paradoxically, this implies that it could be selfless to be selfish in certain situations.

Selfish genes
The selfishness of people stems from the selfishness of genes. The instructions about how to create all living things are encoded into a series of genes that are present in almost all the microscopic cells from which living things are built. Different individuals contain slightly different genes, which makes them unique. Genes can change over time, and those that provide instructions for useful features (like good eyesight, fast running and so on) are selected for by evolution, because they convey a survival advantage over other individuals. For example, a gene that contains instructions about how to make stronger leg muscles would allow a rabbit to escape from a predator more easily. This rabbit is more likely to survive and produce offspring, and these offspring may contain copies of the beneficial gene. Offspring that inherit this gene would be able to escape from predators more easily, and the gene would spread throughout the rabbit population. Evolution is where a species changes over time due to genetic adaptations to the environment, and can result in the formation of new species. This is where two groups of individuals from the same species have become so different that their genes are no longer compatible, and cross-breeding between members of the two groups does not produce fertile offspring.

Although genes do not think, they adopt selfish characteristics. Genes compete with each other to spread through a population, because a gene that conveys an advantage to an individual wil
