ABRACADABRA!

"At the very beginning there was willed action, and the willed action then was by God (Alaha), and God was that willed action. The beginning was by God. All was by Him and without Him not a single thing came into being out of that which was. From Him there came into being a perfect life and this perfect life became light unto all men. And this light out of darkness caused light, and darkness did not overcome..."
(John 1:1-5 - Khaboris Manuscript, in Aramaic, the language that Jesus spoke)

The Old Testament was written in Hebrew...the New Testament was written in Greek...Jesus actually spoke Aramaic, which is a family of languages or dialects belonging to the Semitic family...more specifically, it is a part of the Northwest Semitic subfamily, which also includes Canaanite languages such as Hebrew and Phoenician...the Aramaic script was widely adopted for other languages, and is ancestral to both the Arabic and modern Hebrew Alphabets.

The Gospels record some instances in which Jesus' native tongue was left untranslated...when He raised Jairus' daughter from the dead, He said the phrase, "Talitha cumi!" (some versions say "Talitha koumi!" or "Talitha kum!"), which means "Little girl, arise!" or "Young lady, I say to you 'get up'!"...

On the cross, as He for the first time and for an instant completely identified with the human perception of being disconnected from God, cried out ""Eli Eli lama sabachthani?" (some versions say "Eloi, Eloi..."), which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me?"...

Interestingly, the word “Abracadabra” may derive from an Aramaic phrase meaning “I create as I speak”...

This etymology is rather dubious, however, as אברא כדברא in Aramaic is more reasonably translated "I create like the word"... the second lexeme* in this supposedly Aramaic phrase must be a noun given the presence of the definite article on the end of the word (it cannot be an infinitive construct, as the infinitive cannot take the definite article)...

Regardless, this phrase would actually be pronounced "ebra kidbara", which is clearly different from abracadabra...however, Semitic languages like Aramiac are not always hard and fast with the assignment of vowels, and abracadabra is similar enough to ebra kidebra, given the tendency of vowels to shift...

In the Hebrew language, the phrase translates more accurately as "it came to pass as it was spoken"...

In Genesis we see that the Elohim (literally translated "the gods", plural) spoke the Universe into existence...later in Genesis, as Abraham developed and promoted the idea of monotheism, we begin to see "God" referred to less and less as "them", and almost completely as "Him"...we see the concept used again when David said, "You have made them (people) a little lower than the Elohim (translated into English as "angels")...but in the opening verses of the Bible, it is clearly "them", as in "Let US create people in OUR image"...in the Khaboris Manuscript (Aramaic), Jesus refers to God as "Alaha" , which is a derivative of Elohim (also spelled Alueim)...Muslims use the very same word as "Allah"...(everything is connected to everything)...

'In A beginning, created by the Alueim were the heavens and the earth. Yet the earth became a chaos and vacant, and darkness was on the surface of the submerged chaos. Yet the spirit of the Alueim IS VIBRATING over the surface of the water. And saying is the Alueim, "Become light!" And it is becoming light.'
 (Genesis 1:1-3 - The Concordant Literal Old Testament)

Wow! Wow! Wow! Did you get that?! "...the spirit of the Alueim IS VIBRATING!"...not "vibrated" or "was vibrating", but IS, IS, IS VIBRATING!!!...I love how this amazing passage in this beautiful translation goes on to say "And saying IS the Alueim, 'Become light!' And it is BECOMING light."...seeing the Hebrew translated here in its proper tense confirms that creation is STILL HAPPENING, that the creative word is ONGOING, and that light is still BECOMING light (which is why the Universe is STILL EXPANDING at the speed of light!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...in a word, the Elohim "creates as it speaks..."

ABRACADABRA = "I create as I speak"...

One day Jesus said to His disciples what was perhaps His most startling statement ever...He told them a very powerful secret which we are just beginning to understand 2,000 years later...He said "You shall do greater works than Me..."

If ABRACADABRA means "I create as I speak" in Jesus' native tongue...if the Elohim or "the gods" are still creating light by the vibration of their words (and remember in the 10th chapter of John that Jesus quoted the Psalms by saying "I said you were gods..."), then there is absolutely no limit to what can be done, beginning in this very moment...

You are very powerful...

You have amazing abilities...

If you have the potential to create a Universe of light, then you certainly can create the life you want!

ABRACADABRA!

    Science has proven that thoughts have mass, mass equals weight, weight has it's own gravitational pull, pulling to us that which we think....be careful of what we think.

    I was sitting here in the dark from the power going out and it occurred to me I could tell it to come back on and it did. Abracadabra!

  6. A few months ago I announced that my next book was going to be one that built a bridge between Spirituality and Science, using the Scriptures, Quantum Physics, the Law of Attraction, and Metaphysical Concepts, etc to confirm parallel truths...the idea was to harmonize all these different ideologies together as a ministry of reconciliation...but the intention seems to have manifested in the form of this blog rather than in the form of another book (at least for now)...I'm sure you guys who just moved all of my current book inventory will be glad to hear it...but I am thoroughly enjoying writing this every day! I've already taught on this subject (see www.youtube.com/bishinthenow), but this post is my favorite so far...thanks for the awesome feedback!

    Talking about abracadabra, my knees had been aching quite a bit. Partially from my work where I have to make several trips a day from top to bottom on a twelve deck ship to being perched on a motorcycle for 10 hours a day for several days last week. They had actually gotten quite tender. As I was walking up the gangplank the first day back to work they were very painful. But, as I thought about what you have been imparting to us lately I started addressing the issue from a "man, this climb is killing my knees" to a "man, it sure is good that I can exercise my knees like this on this climb so that I can build some strength back into them." When I started doing that I saw each step as a push in the direction of healing instead of a push in the direction of further damage. Right now they feel a whole lot better than they did this time last week. I've actually begun sensing my brain sending signals to my knees telling them to get with the program.

  9. Excellent quality Bishop ! Abracadabra is a favorite word.

    I/You/We/Us = Elohim - speak /intend and create . Source energy flows through Elohim .

    We are created as Creators. Science and Faith = Experience.
