The Light of the World, The Light of the Life, The Logos of the Deity

The Logos

Jesus Christ is the Logos of the Deity in human form. This Logos, spoken to us by the Messiah, gives us an introduction to the Logic of the Father Deity: His Rationale, His Reasoning, the Way He Thinks: His Logic. It soon becomes apparent that the Logic of the Deity is completely opposite to Human Logic. As we become doers of this Divine Rationale, we prove its efficacy and everything begins to change for us: our thinking, our attitudes, our actions and ultimately our abilities.

The Existence of Israel

To the rational unbiased mind (a human condition seldom found these days), the following video presents a very strong case for the existence of Yehovah, the Creator, the God of Israel. As the video details, it is simply astounding what the Sons of Israel have endured and yet survived down through the millennia. There is no other such people group anywhere on earth. None!
How can this be?
The probability of such a thing happening is so extraordinarily small, it defies the idea it is just a chance happening.

The following are seven remarkable Jewish wonders that defy historical patterns and fulfill ancient prophecies. (extract from https://aish.com/48965856/)

WONDER #1: THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE ETERNAL
The Jewish People have survived for more than 3000 years. This was predicted beforehand!
"Thus says Yehovah, 'Who establishes the sun to light the day, the laws of the moon and stars to light the night, Who stirs up the sea into roaring waves, Whose name is Yehovah of Hosts? If these natural laws should ever give away before Me,' says Yehovah, 'only then shall the offspring of Israel cease to be a nation before me for all time.' " (Jer. 31:35-36)
In other words, as long as there's sun, moon and sky, there will always be a Jewish people.

WONDER #2: DISPERSION
Rule number one of world history is that if you're going to scatter a nation all over the globe with no common land or language or history, they're going to lose their identity! And yet the Jews are eternal. This dispersion was predicted beforehand!
"That they shall know that I am Yehovah, when I scatter them among the nations and disperse them over foreign lands." (Ezek. 12:15)

WONDER #3: ANTI-SEMITISM
The Jews have survived thousands of years of turbulent exile. This was predicted beforehand!
"Among those nations, you shall find no respite, no rest for your foot, for there Yehovah will give you an anguished heart and wasted eyes and a dismayed soul. You will live in constant suspense, and stand in dread, both by day and by night, never sure of your existence." (Deut. 28:65-66)
"For that which comes into your mind shall never be. That which you say, 'Let us be like the nations, like the families of other lands, serving wood and stone.' 'As I live,' says the Lord Yehovah, 'with a mighty hand and outstretched arm and with outpoured fury, I shall be king over you.' " (Ezek. 20:32-33)
It is a strange fact that when every other nation tries to assimilate, the persecution stops. When the Jews try to assimilate, the persecution intensifies. This was predicted beforehand!

WONDER #4: FEW IN NUMBER
The Jews will be few in number. This was predicted beforehand!
"You will remain few in number, whereas you could have become as numerous as the stars of the heavens, because you would not obey the voice of Yehovah, your God." (Deut. 28:62)

WONDER #5: A LIGHT UNTO THE NATIONS
The nations that persecuted and denigrated the Jews will come to them for wisdom and guidance? This was predicted beforehand!
"Yea, He saith, 'It is too light a thing for you to be My servant, to establish the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the scions of Israel, and I shall submit you as a light unto the nations, to be My salvation until the end of the earth' (Isaiah 49:6)

WONDER #6: THE INTERDEPENDENCE BETWEEN THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND THE LAND OF ISRAEL
Could anyone have known that the land would produce only for the Jewish people? This was predicted beforehand!
"And I shall make the land a desolate waste so that its proud strength will cease, and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate that no one will cross them. Then they shall know that I am Yehovah when I make the land a desolate waste because of all the abominable things they have done." (Ezek. 33:28-29)
Is there any other country on earth whose land responds to only one nation?

WONDER #7: THE MIRACULOUS RETURN OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE TO THEIR HOMELAND
The Jews, today, are witnesses to the miraculous return of the Jewish people to their homeland. This was predicted beforehand!
…that then Yehovah thy God will turn your captivity, and have compassion upon you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, whither Yehovah your God hath scattered you. (Deut. 30:3)
And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and multiply. (Jer. 23:3)
Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Yehovah: I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel. (Ezek. 11:16-17)

Not only are these seven wonders so paradoxical, so outside the pale of logic, but each one was clearly predicted in the Torah!

This people, often called The People of The Book, know what has been, what will be and what is their lot, for it has all been written in The Book.

The first short 7 minute video following this text, gives some poignant history of the Jews and what their God wrote about them in The Book, the Tanakh or as we know it, the Old Testament. The spoken words are in Hebrew but the subtitles are in English. It is easier to follow the English if the sound is turned off. May be for some, the speed of the video needs to be reduced using the gear shaped settings button toward the right in the bottom bar of the video. Selecting 0.75 seems ideal.

The second 21 minute video gives detailed reasoning why this has happened to the people of Israel and who is the One responsible for orchestrating this significant circumstance.

Wisdom is a tree of Life to all who take hold of her; and blessed are they that hold her fast.
(Proverbs 3:18)
