Decoding the Past - The Secrets of Kabbalah
First and foremost please do not forget that the Jews accepted Jesus Christ first and that a remnant exists today.  In the Lord's time the  partial blindness will finally be lifted from their eyes.

Kabbalah is studied by some of the Orthodox Jews and practiced by the Jewish Masons that belong to the illuminati. None of the true Messianic Jews practice Kabbalah and most Jews, as a whole, are ignorant to Kabbalah.  It is the Jewish religious sect, Orthodox Jews, and the religious Jews of today that practice Kabbalah.   It was those same religious traditional Jews that wanted Jesus dead.
The Babylonian Talmud contains  a mystical school of thought that was taught only to the most advanced students and was not written down - it was passed orally from  teacher to student. 

The Talmud relates that for twelve years the Rabbi Simon and his son Eliezer concealed themselves in a cavern, where sitting in the sand up to their necks, they meditated on the sacred law and were frequently visited by the prophet Elias. (Adolphe Franck)
What is Kabbalism?

The word Kabbalah has a number of spellings, including Cabala and Qabalah.  It means "a doctrine orally received"   Many believe that  when Moses brought the Ten Commandments from Mount Sinai he also brought with him oral law, or Kabbalah.

Moses warned Israel in Deuteronomy 4:2:

"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you."

When the Jewish people were lead out of Egypt by Moses they were commanded to renounce the pagan gods of other nations surrounding them - but sadly they did not heed the Lord and they repeatedly  turned to these gods and even Solomon brought some of these icons into the Temple.   The Lord punished them by sending them into Exile to Babylon in the 6th Century.  But there they were still polluted by the ways of the Babylonians and instead of rejecting their teachings they combined Baal worship and Babylonian astrology to creat Kabbalah. 

Those same Orthodox Kabbalists believe that King Solomon was the first great Kabbalist who developed rituals for controlling demonic and angelic forces. Jewish Cabbalists believe that there are 32 steps to attaining spiritual perfection. Through disciplined study they believe that they may eventually see God and become his intellectual equal.

The essence of Kabbalah  is gleaned  from false systems stemming from the first recorded departure from the true God to worship of the sun god Nimrod in Babylonia.   Kabbalism is the basis of nearly every tradition covered under the general heading of "occultism". Kabbalah is the basis for the  occult practices of the Freemasons, the Illuminati and the Knights Templar.   They claim to have the high carnal Wisdom of Solomon.   
The heart of Kabbalistic teaching is the pursuit of secret knowledge.  One of the cornerstone beliefs of Kabbalah is that correct interpretation of Scripture is based on knowledge that is hidden in the words, letters, numbers, and even the accent marks contained in the Hebrew Scripture. Only those who possess the secret key to interpretation may know these mysteries.  Kabbalists believe that much of the world is unexplainable to humans who exist in one level of consciousness. Therefore, they seek to enter other levels of spirituality by detailed study of the Torah. Kabbalists believe the answers to all human perplexities can be found in this most sacred work, but the answers are hidden within a complex network of codes and symbols. 




Mat 16:6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

This leaven was the astrology and the magic that had been carried back to Jerusalem after the exile through the Babylonians and was orally taught as the Kabbalah.

Jesus referred to the Pharisees as 'hypocrites,' a 'den of vipers,' and 'children of an adulterous generation.' Pharisaic law is reflected in the Babylonian Babylonian Talmud, particularly in the book of Mishna—the original book of the Babylonian Talmud. The Pharisees were a secret order who outwardly appeared to be orthodox Jews but inwardly were of the mysteries of Babylon.
Kabbalah does hold to the inspiration of Scripture, but does not seek the plain meaning of Scripture.  It is filled with astrological teachings, fortune-telling, magick, gematria, necromancy and demonology. It is mainly based on two texts, the Sepher Yetzirah ("the book of creation") and the Zohar ("the book of enlightenment").which are supposed to offer interpretations of the inner meaning of the Torah.  
“I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture…I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” John 10:9-10.

“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” John 14:6.

“Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ” Colossians 2:8.

“the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith” Romans 16:25-26.
In the New Testament Jesus is available to every one - not just those that have been given this "secret knowledge"
The Kabbalists teach that there is a “code” encrypted in the letters of the Hebrew Scriptures that, once deciphered, reveals the hidden truth of God.

The Bible says: “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope” Romans 15:4.


The Kabbalists teach that everything that exists, exists within man. Man is a microcosm of all Creation. This is part of being created in the “image of the Divine.”

The Bible says: “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers.All things were created through Him and for Him.And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist” Colossians 1:15-17.

The Kabbalists teach that Kabbalah is the oldest and most influential wisdom in all of human history.

The Bible says: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made” John 1:1-3.




The Kabbalists teach that the spiritual light of the Zohar banishes all forms of darkness from our world.The study of Kabbalah has influenced Abraham, Moses, Muhammad, Shakespeare, Freud and Jesus.

The Bible says: “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying,‘I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life’” John 8:12.
The Kabbalists teach that the way to become one with the Infinite Being is to struggle to be moral and spiritual while in this world, amidst a sea of temptations and challenges.

The Bible says:  “Jesus said unto him,‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me’” John 14:6.

The Tree of Life

The Kabbalah is presented, symbolically, in the form of The Kabbalistic Tree of Life
said to represent the spiritual universe.

Kabbalists use the Tree and the Hebrew alphabet  to calculate the "true names" of things. They say that if you know the true name of something, you can control it, which quickly led medieval kabbalists to become ritual magicians (as well as inspiring medieval ritual magicians to become kabbalists).

With kabalistic secrets firmly in hand, the kabalists believe that they can construct magic words that presumably empower users to command the very forces of the universe.

The Tree of Life consists of three columns known as "pillars", and 10 sephiroth, or spheres, each of which represents an aspect of the process God used to create the world.


At the top of the diagram is Kether, "The Crown", which represents the divine intelligence of God, from which all of creation emanates. The three pillars emanate down from Kether all the way down to Malkuth at the bottom. (The word means "Kingdom"; the bottom sephira is also sometimes called Shekhinah.) Kether is the angle at which reality points toward the creator; Malkuth is the angle at which is points toward His creation -- the earthly world.

In traditional Kabbalism, there are 10 sephiroth, although some schools teach of a "hidden" 11th in the middle of the diagram. Each sephira has different characteristics and is represented by a different Hebrew letter, which also corresponds to a number.

The 10 sephiroth are connected by 22 lines (associated with the 22 letters of the Hebew alphahabet), known as "paths," each of which carries a specific meaning.  Some occult traditions teach that the paths correspond to the major arcana in the Tarot.
Combining the 10 Sephiroth with  these 22 paths makes the number 32 which equals the 32 Qabbalistic Paths of Wisdom and also the 32 degrees of Freemasonry.

Many of the mysteries of Babylon were given unto Israel through Solomon. Solomon went whoring after the gods of his pagan wives. Israel through the wisdom that God had given unto Solomon controlled the whole world and was the greatest nation of the world. The Kabbalists believe that the Messiah will return this glory unto Israel and that God's Kingdom once again will be a kingdom of this world. They believe that Solomon attained his great wisdom from knowing the mystery of the Tree of Life. They believe that through that knowledge they can control the powers of angels and have the same power that Jesus Christ had here on earth.

Modern Day Kabbalah

Modern Kabbalah only dates back to the twelfth century, to the Sefer Bahir (Book of the Brilliant Light) and the Sefer Zohar (Book of Splendor), written a century later. The fascination of  “forbidden” knowledge has always been an allure for many.

Kabbalah scholar Moshe Schatz, who is ultra Orthodox says that 'Kabbalah seeks to show the unity underlying all of reality - physical and spiritual. I can tell you for sure that some of the gurus in India are teaching very high Kabbalah.  Kabbalah teaches us not to reject anything. We can integrate the insights not only of science but of Buddhism, Hinduism, all human knowledge.'

Kabbalah is being introduced as a new religion in America through Hollywood.  Madonna in 2003 spent $5,000,000 to build a Kabbalah reading temple in London.  The latest trend is "red Kabbalah string"  which they claim will ward off the evil eye.  Increasingly, Hollywood celebrities have been seen adorning these red strings.

The Kabbalists say: "The Red String has been used as a tool of protection for centuries. The practice, developed by the sages, involves winding the red string around the tomb of the great Matriarch, Rachel located in the Land of Israel. The string is then cut it into pieces and worn on the left wrist. The left hand is considered by Kabbalah to be the receiving side for the body and soul. By wearing The Red String on our left wrist, we can receive a vital connection to the protective energies surrounding the tomb of Rachel. It also allows us to take Rachel's powerful protective energy with us and draw from it anytime.  Kabbalists believe that by seeking the Light of holy persons, such as Rachel, we can use their powerful influence to assist us. According to Kabbalah, Rachel represents the physical world in which we live. Her greatest desire is to protect and defend all of her children from evil."

The latest version of kabbalism has more in common with the New Age than with traditional occultism.  According to a book on Kabbalah by Migene Gonzalez-Wippler, techniques to accomplish this inner knowledge include: relaxation, meditation and breathing techniques; ritualistic dancing, especially to music with a strong beat 'created by different drum rhythms which tend to be repetitive and hypnotic in quality', and yoga.
 
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow and pop star Madonna were recently spotted wearing matching red Jewish Kabbalah bracelets and dinning together in New York.
In addition to Madonna, celebrity kabbalists include  Elizabeth Taylor, Demi Moore, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mick Jagger, Jeff Goldblum, Ivana Trump , Roseanne Barr and David and Victoria Beckham.   (Britney Spears has now left Kabbalism)

All of this shows that Kabbalah is not derived from the God of the Bible.  This is how the ancient Baal worship was combined with Babylonian astrology to create Kabbalah  which will help to create the end time delusion which will lead to the final world apostasy and acceptance of Antichrist as the Messiah.

The Jewish Faith that was purely and strictly taught from The Holy Scriptures, the five books of Moses -  part of  The Old Testament, is the true “Judaism.” Those who adhere to that Faith are what we call true “Jews.” The Kabbalah and Kabbalism did NOT arise from THAT pure stream. It arose due to flagrant disobedience to the Jewish Faith.  It was a clear command of the Jewish Faith, “Learn not the ways of the heathen.”
