![WHAT IS ORTHODOX JUDAISM? [4 of 5] Self-focused individuals, living with billions of others around the planet, want to feel special. But every human is already exceptional: God fashioned each of us in our mother’s womb, every one of us a unique, notable, special creation. But the vast majority of humanity—the broad swath (road) mentioned in Scripture—do not take the time to learn God’s Word in the Bible, where each person would find out that he or she is completely unique, made exactly the way God wanted them. Unfortunately, most people do not put the Armor of God by reading the Bible, so they easily fall for even the simplest
of deceptions that are constantly put out by people doing Satan’s
bidding—whether those satanically duped people know it or not. Men and women easily become enamored with false teachers claiming to have secret knowledge that has never been taught before. These charlatans claim they received their special knowledge as a direct download from God, and He personally picked this (false) teacher to receive information that no one else was given. Now they are being gracious enough to pass it onto you and me. But these self-aggrandizing frauds are just tossing us trash, the same old recycled garbage. Yet, plenty of unknowingly deceived people will slave for those lies and pay out a lot of money to them—all resulting in an
eternity in hell, if they don’t find Jesus before death. | image tagged in orthodox,jewish,judaism,works,god,bible | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5yrqvq.jpg)
![WHAT IS ORTHODOX JUDAISM? [3 of 5] The branch of Orthodox Judaism called Hasidim Orthodox (Hasidic-Orthodox Jews) is where we find the practice of Jewish Kabbalah. And those beliefs closely resemble some of the Grecian-originated ideas that surround "gnosis," which means "knowledge" in Greek. Practitioners of gnosis (Gnostics) claim to have special knowledge of spiritual mysteries. When you place an "a" in front of “gnostic,” you get "agnostic," which means a person with "no” knowledge. In practice, agnostics profess that they don’t have enough knowledge to determine whether God does or does not exist (atheists claim to believe there is no God). Near the time of its manmade origins, Gnosticism involved people and ideas that even the
New Testament’s Apostle Paul had to deal with. Two thousand years later,
Kabbalah is a kind of a warmed-over version of Gnosticism, and it has the
same feel as Westernized Hinduism, which is the root of the relatively
recent religion called New Age—which also grew out of Kabbalah. Again, Satan only recycles old lies, like the false beliefs of Gnosticism, just repackaging whatever has been previously successful at fooling a lot of people. Of course, this is why we must learn history, especially the biblical record. Normally, an initial version of Satan’s lie can dupe many generations, but only until biblically sound people counter it with God’s truth. That’s no problem for Lucifer; he just waits a while and then repackages the same core deception, like how he turned the discredited religion of Gnosticism into Kabbalah, and then waited a few more generations to relabel the same occult practices as New Age. In fact, you can trace the sewage pipe of occultism all the way back to the Tower of Babel, where God judged their satanic
practices by confusing the language, which caused common-language groups to
spread out around the world, landing in places like the Indus River Valley. There
in what is now India, those Babylonian occult practices became Hinduism.
Again, elsewhere it developed into Gnosticism that became modern-day
Kabbalah, which produced the New Age movement. | image tagged in othodox,jew,judaism,god,bible,hindu | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5yrq5f.jpg)
