"We do not know whether Jesus was an Essene, but some scholars feel that he was at least influenced by them."

Would it not be true that Jesus, being God in the flesh, influenced them? Otherwise, thank you for the reply.

Here also is how to enter into the rest: Hebrews 4:1, Genesis 1. God was Jesus manifest in the flesh, he died.

He rose again, sits at the right hand of the Father, who said, +my lambs and my sheep, the truth you must feed+.

He's God....so.....well... He wasn't 'influenced' by anyone. He sets the doctrine, he doesn't get influenced by it.

"And Jesus grew in wisdom..."

Which means he had room for growth and the capacity to be influenced by others.

And Jesus said he and his Father were one. One God and Father above all other gods. The fact that Jesus was God and man, that he rose again, that his Spirit lives inside of his believers, to lead them further into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Isaiah 9:6.

Genesis 1, Leviticus 24, Isaiah 1.

Jesus said to tend to his sheep, to feed his lambs.

God said to set no graven images before him.

What to murdered animals as happens.

God's law is to love his creatures.

If he were God, you might have a point.

Yes, not nature or identity. The Greek allows no room for that.

Default The Law of One

One in Spirit as God is the way and the life and the truth, the breath of every living thing born under the sun.

God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, the Earth runs on the Law of One.

I Timothy 3:16.

If man divides what God prospers he subdivides his values measured by stock bonds manipulative ties of abandoning.

Money launders itself numerous times changing hands but not the tables those stocks bonds equities as factories made to munitions.

War is the predominant measure nations aim for warring against the very exact Kingdom that God had finished right for himself in the beginning.

Genesis 1: he divided the light from the darkness, said every green plant is food for both man as animals, but man transgressed the law of the garden of Eden.

Abel gave a bloodless offering.

His brother grew jealous and slew him.

Slay the cup of the fire of the Zoroastrian.

The sin of Adam was carried down.

Man was thrown out, as he tries various ways to find another route around God's eternal law that was set in place before Moses instructed his followers to break the original law of God given.

'Love thy neighbor as thyself' as Michael would rebuke Satan.

The law of God is to love him and his most beautiful creation.

Lection 33 A.D. "The Gospel of the Holy Twelve"; there's a lot of money to be made off the suffering of the animal kingdom God created as perfect as it was, but the money changers changed it all around.
