WHAT DID YESHUA WRITE IN THE DUST?


WHAT DID YESHUA WRITE IN THE DUST?

Do you know that Yeshua did not write anything down for his disciples to follow, during the less than four years of his ministry? The only time he did write something was when he stooped down before the accusers of a woman caught in the act of adultery and scribbled in the dust.  

The story of a woman caught in the act of adultery is found in the gospel of John 8: 1-11. Briefly the story involves the Scribes and Pharisees, two Old Testament sects, who in their continuous efforts to trick Yeshua into saying something they could hold against him, brought before him a woman caught in adultery. They reminded him that the Mosaic Law demanded she be stoned to death. But “what do you have to say?” they asked him. There were two points in dispute, either Yeshua reject the Law of Moses or reject the authority of Rome. Both ways they would have got to discredit Yeshua as a prophet of God and bring charges to bear against him...

(It was never their intention to stone her because it was against Roman law and to release her would have gone against Mosaic Law for them).

At this point Yeshua stooped down and started writing something in the dirt. When he straightened up he said, “If any of you are without sin, let him be the first to cast a stone at her. (John8:7) He then stooped down and wrote again. One by one the people left. (Verses 8-9)

Now about what Yeshua wrote in the dust.

We have heard since childhood, we have read it on the internet that what they saw in the dust, was their own sins, and then they went away, one by one.

What I have gathered to date: To write about sins a person has committed, is not a short process. It would take considerable time and besides there were quite a few of them gathered there. So what he wrote briefly was, names of persons, places, events and things. The Holy Spirit then opened up their minds to what they were being accused of in his scribblings and the guilt factor within them amplified it to such an extent that it became unbearable and they had to run away from there.

Not all of them could have been weighted down with such grave sins to cause them to flee thus. For others, I presume it happened somewhat like this. I call it “unhinging”.

The following is from my personal experiences.

I walk into a general store. I pick up some merchandise. I move to the check-out counter, and pay with a high denomination note. I am due some change in return. However the amount returned does not tally with the receipt.  I have somehow been paid more than I am due; I bring this to the notice of the cashier and return the extra money. This has happened to me quite a few times over the years. The cashier gets unhinged from his train of thoughts and mistakenly pays me more.

I never yet kept the extra money that was given me because it was just to show me the powers T.H.S. has over people but never to make me rich.

(Remember his words: I am not here for your entertainment.  I am here to do my work.  Please open http://holyspiritunavec.org   Under I am not here for your entertainment posted December 10, 2011 by unavec).

Here HIS work being, to inform others of just what he is capable of doing, if he wants to that is, unhinging your train of thoughts and behavior.

Anyway to continue, with what might have happened to the rest of them. They too got unhinged from the reason they had gone there and hurried about attending to their normal activities, completely disregarding what was happening around them. Incredible but it just could happen.

Here is another incident. You head for your dept. store and when you get there, for the life of you, you just cannot recollect what you had gone there for. You head back home scolding yourself for not having written it down and the next time maybe you will. But if he wants to, it can just vanish from your mind and try as you must, it will not come back to memory. A memory recall failure all be it for a brief period;

Here is another incident to liven things up a bit. It’s from

Luke4:  28-30.

All in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things; and rose up and cast him out of the city and led him to the brow of the hill on which their city had been built in order to throw him down the cliff. (They wanted to witness a miracle from him. He implied that they were unworthy of a miracle from him. He implied that they were unworthy of a miracle being performed there in Nazareth as was done elsewhere.)

Did they actually desire to do so? Throw him off the cliff?

According to T.H.S. they were only trying to intimidate him. They had no real intention of doing so because he was a local lad and that’s why he was able to walk away from them with ease. 

The above came out because I was under the impression that T.H.S. would manage to unhinge them from their intentions to do so, once they had reached the cliffs. Given this scenario he would have been able to walk away from them too.

The MAIN purpose for all that is written above is to inform you, in an indirect manner and by illustration that T.H.S. can control your life if that’s what he wants to and under circumstances where you are completely helpless. So God rules!

There is not much left to write concerning scriptures. Do keep asking him. Who knows you might find your answers here.
