“The Lord(Adonai) is my shepherd, I shall not want. . . .”

In Psalm 23, King David declares “The Lord(Adonai) is my shepherd, I shall not want. . . .”

This phrase is one of the most well known in all of the world. King David(probably written when he was a young shepherd himself) demonstrates what we should expect from our leaders. First from our religious leaders which are to lead us to King David's Shepard(G-D). Then if we as a people allow ruler to lead us, we set and uphold how our leaders should treat us.

I am not speaking or writing about politics here, I only present that we should require our leaders to be shepherds also. Back to the real intent here: Our religious leaders! In truth, no matter what religion you follow or contemplate, we must expect these leaders to show us how to find a higher spiritual existence. This means for most people on earth, that high existence is GOD.

Why do only Jews get to go to Heaven?

The Question was: Will someone please explain, why do only Jews get to go to Heaven, and the rest of humanity, that Gd did create, go to some second kind of Heaven?

It seems that the person who asked this question heard a Rabbi make a similar statement. This upset the questioner greatly and she was confused and angry. Personally, I can understand the mood of the questioner, and I will say that I was very disturbed that any religious leader would or could say such a thing, but it is not unexpected, at least by me. False Shepherds *1(those giving directions, teaching and misleading those people seeking G-D, they are actually leading people away from G-D for their own pleasure)abound everywhere and act more like the Snake in the Garden of Eden than shepherds of H'shem's flock.

I have found No Validation for such a statement as the questioner asks, nor has anyone come forth with proof from the Word of G-D either, in support of what we are upset about.

I have given a response to the writer, and now to you, explaining what I have found to be true by using the word of H'Shem found in the Torah(writings of Moses) and Tanach(Prophets sent by H'shem).

First issue: Only the Jews -- Ezekiel 37, tells how G-D will bring the Jews and All of the Tribes of Israel back. A very good read.

There is one law for Children of Israel and the stranger in the midst(not choosing to be of The Chosen)((Exodus 12:49) One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you. (Numbers 15:16) One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.), maybe Isaiah 56 will be a better place to look. This passage speaks directly to those who have chosen to be joined to the Lord or the stranger's son. H'shem has declared that they (Isaiah 56:7) Even them(the stranger's son) will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.

This part relates to the End of Days, and there are great amounts of Prophesy regarding what will happen and when. If you chose G-D as your G-d and as Isaiah reports it: "(Isaiah 56:6) Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;(Isaiah 56:7) Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

Fear not what the people say, but truly seek the Lord our G-D with all of your heart, all of your soul and all of your being, for it is the Lord G-D that is my Salvation and He does not Sleep nor Goes on vacation. His full plan for my life is unknown to me, only that HE has been my protector all the days of my life. G-d is Righteous in deed and judgment. B''H'shem.

This can go on as long as you want me to show you H'shem and what we are to do. Did I go to deep? Was I easy to understand? Do you have questions? Send me an email by selecting the icon of an envelope below.

*1 (Ezekiel 34:2) Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
