The Middle East: And The Spiritual Significance (Part 2)



I have been able to establish that mankind started from the Middle East, but we have seen many things spring from other parts of the world, but till today the middle East still holds a significance that cannot be taken away from them and that is the origin of every major religion in the world today. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all have their roots in the region that is known today as highly volatile.

The middle East is very volatile because of the scamper for land and supremacy, however the major issue in this last days is religious supremacy. The middle East has been divided along the lines of religion. Judaism exists alone in Israel, Christianity is in tits and bits in the nations while Islam takes the biggest chunk. Spiritual pilgrimage in the world today is found in the same region. The question you would want to ask is: why are they all particular about the middle East?

Judaism is the oldest of the 3 religions and the Jews cannot let go of some locations because it is tied to their faith. A place like Jerusalem is held in high esteem because of the connections it has to their temple which was first built in the 10th century B.C.E. during the days of King Solomon. It was destroyed by Babylon (present day Iraq) and rebuilt just before the birth of Jesus. The temple was again destroyed by the Romans at 70 AD. The Jews believe that the temple will be rebuilt a third time as prophesied by Ezekiel.

Christianity on her own cannot turn a blind eye to the middle East because of the root we have in Judaism and the veracity of the birth, ministry, crucifixion, death, resurrection and ascension of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Also, the coming back of Jesus to rule the earth from Jerusalem is another reason why believers must be interested in the situation in the middle East.

Islam also have many reasons why they are so interested in the middle East. If the world will believe the testimony of Mohammed, they have to preserve the monuments that are attached to him. Islam has spread much more in the middle East than other places. Mecca and Medina in present day Saudi Arabia are sacred locations according to the Muslim faith. Hinduism is also closely knitted with Middle East.

Why did all of them come out of the same region? Is there some sort of spiritual importance that the region has that the others do not have? The answer is simple. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all have their root in the same man that the lands of the middle East was willed to- Abraham. The three religions all claim to be the right heir to the inheritance of Abraham. The land and supremacy battle is still main issue.

I don't want to make this too long, but please follow me as I drive at a very important conclusion. I delayed this second part a bit when I saw the path that the Holy Spirit is driving at. It scared me. 'Am I bold enough to make it known' was a question it took me days before I could answer.

Oranmiyan (Part 3: Origin of Yoruba)

  Our journey will begin by identifying who the Yoruba people are. From the stories and relics of the children of the tribe, it is obvious that the projenitors of the tribe were deeply rooted in sorcery. Especially those who constitute the royal families. Their blood lines is soaked in idolatry, divination and sorcery. They know how to access principalities and powers and learn their worship modes. There are many stories about the origin of the Yoruba race. The Yoruba race has two major stories about their origin. One is supernatural. The other is natural The supernatural or divine one said that the supreme being, God, sent a god- Obatala to come and create the earth, but he got drunk and God had to send another god- Oduduwa. This is what some people hold. This school of thought has several loopholes chief of which is that Oduduwa entered Ile Ife in 11AD, but Ife Arts, according to carbon dating goes way back as 500BC which means that there was life in Ile Ife before Oduduwa came in.

Oranmiyan (Part 4: Lamurudu vs Oduduwa)

After being forced out of his land, Lamurudu settled in Egypt for some time where he deepened his knowledge in sorcery. He learned several patterns of rituals which still exists in some parts of Ijebu today. At that time, the Egyptians have developed so well in the worship of their gods who were originally men. The concept of gods begins with a man encountering a demonic prince who is looking for obeisance from men. These princes have the same goal as Lucifer. Once they begin to get attention from a man, the man begins to take up their (dark) nature because it is a law in the spirit realm that whatever you behold, you become. The consecration of these men to the worship of the princes led to the reproduction of the abilities and characteristics of the prince in the man, so the man becomes great among other men. Most of these men takes up the name of the prince that they worship such that when the man dies, you can keep calling his name and the prince responds to your request thereby es

Oranmiyan (Part 5: The gods of Egypt)

During the sojourn of Lamurudu in Egypt, what was going on in Egypt at that time was similar to what happened in Genesis 6:1-2 where demonic entities found a way to reproduce themselves in women to establish a race of beings that were not fully humans. These creatures were very big that they were called Giants. They had 6 fingers and toes and unusual strength. Bible refer to them as Nephilims which means mysterious beings who are large and strong. Some other meanings called them fallen ones. They had supernatural abilities and they preyed on full humans. The situation was like what was portrayed in Harry Potter that had pure bloods, half bloods, mud bloods and muggles. The pure bloods were the witches whose both parents are also witches, half blood is a witch with one parent as witch, mud blood has both parents as normal people and muggles are non witches. At that time in Genesis 6, the Nephilims had created another race on earth that paralleled the pure humans. This what why God sent
