Sand or Rock: Two Kinds of Building
Jesus Christ said, “Everyone who hears my words and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock. It rained hard, the floods came, and the winds blew and hit that house. But it did not fall, because it was built on rock. Everyone who hears my words and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. It rained hard, the floods came, and the winds blew and hit that house, and it fell with a big crash.” (Matthew 7:24-29 New Century Version)
In all Jewish doctrines of the Torah, Scriptures, and The Prophets, “sand” refers to the earth. However, all forms of Christianity today have Greek and Roman roots, going back to the councils of Nicea when the Hebrew aspects of Judaism were stripped from Christianity. Therefore, let us have a fresh new mental attitude towards Moshiach’s commandment to build only on rock in the Hebrew Jewish wisdom of our sages and Torah Scholars.
When Christ said to build on rock, he was referring to a material, not a singular place. We know from Jewish wisdom that this place cannot be Earth because Earth is always referred to as sand or dust, and it cannot be a singular place since Messiah only refers to the structure of the exact material upon which to build. It can only be that Messiah was teaching building on the sapphire stone ladder of Jacob! This would explain Messiah’s demands 70 years later to Apostle John on Patmos, demanding his churches be not on earth but be in the heavens (Revelation 4:1-22). I propose today that the entire Harlot of Babylon of the Book of Revelation is the sand castle of man’s false earthly Christianity!
Our Jewish sages taught that when the Messiah appeared, he would teach a much greater Kabbalah than Moses, and he would teach that Kabbalah openly and publicly, not privately nor in secret. As we read the New Testament in all the wisdom of our Jewish sages, I am fully assured that we will understand all the New Testament of Jesus Christ’s New Covenant commandment to build on solid rock with no sand!
Today, the main challenge for all believers is the prevalence of sand! Sandcastles, sand clothing, sand teaching, and sand leaders. However, God is now calling all believers and followers of the Messiah Jesus Christ to transition to rock castles, rock clothing, rock teaching, and rock leaders. These rocks are the illuminated rungs of Jacob’s Ladder, now accessible to all nations through Jesus Christ of Nazareth, our Almighty Moshiach! The time for this shift is now.
Then Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God going up and down on the Son of Man, the one who is the stairway between heaven and earth” (John 1:51 New Living Translation).
