Dear Friends,
In closing, the Memorial Portion for the Sabbath, May 21st, 2011 teaches me that Faith is in God. God is not a religion. Faith is as unique as your own DNA.

Today, the Holy Spirit has taught me to receive the gift of faith. I am justified by our faith, for the immediate and the future. (Romans 4:23-25; James 5:17-18; and Romans 5:1.
This Parsha is not for the irrational. Only holiness to Jehovah, will please Him. This is a great lesson about faith. You need no one to validate what God gives you and what you make of yourself is your gift to God. Tithes have always been mandated, but be mindful to have faith that you can give tithes.
On the contrary, you sit right there and no sooner than I can get the blessing out of my mouth, you go all Judas Iscariot on me.

Star verses:
Leviticus 26:3 - 3If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
Romans 9:27 - 27Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
 |
| Matthew 28:1-10 |
1Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
2Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
3If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
4Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
5And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
6And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
7And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
8And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
9For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
10And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new.
11And I set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
12And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
13I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
14But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
15And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:
16I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
17And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
18And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
19And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
20And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
21And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.
22I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate.
23And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me;
24Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
25And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
26And when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
27And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
28Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
29And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
30And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you. (Leviticus 26, King James Version)
1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When a man shall make a singular vow, the persons shall be for the LORD by thy estimation.
3And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
4And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty shekels.
5And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
6And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver.
7And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male, then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.
8But if he be poorer than thy estimation, then he shall present himself before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to his ability that vowed shall the priest value him.
9And if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the LORD, all that any man giveth of such unto the LORD shall be holy.
10He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good: and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then it and the exchange thereof shall be holy.
11And if it be any unclean beast, of which they do not offer a sacrifice unto the LORD, then he shall present the beast before the priest:
12And the priest shall value it, whether it be good or bad: as thou valuest it, who art the priest, so shall it be.
13But if he will at all redeem it, then he shall add a fifth part thereof unto thy estimation.
14And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the LORD, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.
15And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be his.
16And if a man shall sanctify unto the LORD some part of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.
17If he sanctify his field from the year of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall stand.
18But if he sanctify his field after the jubile, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.
19And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him.
20And if he will not redeem the field, or if he have sold the field to another man, it shall not be redeemed any more.
21But the field, when it goeth out in the jubile, shall be holy unto the LORD, as a field devoted; the possession thereof shall be the priest's.
22And if a man sanctify unto the LORD a field which he hath bought, which is not of the fields of his possession;
23Then the priest shall reckon unto him the worth of thy estimation, even unto the year of the jubile: and he shall give thine estimation in that day, as a holy thing unto the LORD.
24In the year of the jubilee the field shall return unto him of whom it was bought, even to him to whom the possession of the land did belong.
25And all thy estimations shall be according to the shekel of the sanctuary: twenty gerahs shall be the shekel.
26Only the firstling of the beasts, which should be the LORD's firstling, no man shall sanctify it; whether it be ox, or sheep: it is the LORD's.
27And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to thine estimation, and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation.
28Notwithstanding no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the LORD of all that he hath, both of man and beast, and of the field of his possession, shall be sold or redeemed: every devoted thing is most holy unto the LORD.
29None devoted, which shall be devoted of men, shall be redeemed; but shall surely be put to death.
30And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD's: it is holy unto the LORD. (Leviticus 27, King James Version)

Commentary:
Nothing is more important that the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the wisdom of receive, discern and have knowledge without any hesitance that you have the hope that is Special Faith - you still have joy in all of your trials and tribulations. Can I imagine being tied to a group of people that I identify with and claiming to have a special religion, only one that promises peace in the near future and the distance too. Religion or not, the Holy Spirit promises special gifts of God. Thinking back at my search for my heritage, I wondered what my ancestors Cherokee thought and the hopes that they had for theirselves and their children. I think expecting peace and love was on their mind because there is nothing more that I feel right now. Remember: God will wipe away every tear, He is Holy. In chapter 26 of the book of Leviticus, God gives rain, safety, peace, victory over your enemies, lordship over wild beast, favor, The Abrahamic Covenant, food, and His dwelling place to name a few. Read the New Covenant, God through His Son Jesus Christ gives you Love, Grace, Joy, abundance in Peace and Prosperity (Health and Fiances et al) and Justification etc.
In the opening Chapter god cautions you to use your free will to worship God. Magnifying Gods name means that you will shall not make idols (idolatry) Isaiah 19:1. I don't think about the connection that I have with anyone, however, I do think about having special faith, only an increase the Holy Ghost can give me, no more than I understand or can intelligently comprehend what to do with this special faith. I am justified in my faith by believing on my High Priest the Lord Jesus.
Be sure to use your free will to worship God. Don't try to get into anybody else's family or network of friends - if it's too much for you then don't practice idolatry. Yet there are many major religions that bow down before graven images, standing images and set-up stones of image -throughout your land. God is the God of the entire Universe, My God is Host of your gods. God, Jehovah, Father God - he alone is worthy of your praise, worship, service, submission, and your glory-most importantly He alone is worthy of your bow. Nothing else matters (Exodus 20:4; Deut. 5:8; Psalm 97:7).
Now when you walk in these statutes (Lev. 26:3), keeping the Sabbath and revere is sanctuary, His commandments, and do them then God will bless you for your obedience in the word. This passage lets me know that I can anticipate a blessing that has already been affirmed once I realize that the prophecy has been fulfilled then you know that there is a blessing. A prophecy is a foretold blessing. If there is a religion or a desire to associate with individuals who utter the prophetic word of God then I am guilty.
God will bless you in your obedience, to the word. God loves you, always. When you Glorify the name of God he tells you early that there is a place of his choosing, the Temple and Jerusalem. With so much rime and corruption against from the people occupying the physical churches that we do not have to walk in the statutes of God by teaching of the Holy Spirit - the Sanctuary is your body - the Body of Christ. Then the choosing of a place to Glorify His Name is the New Jerusalem - in Heaven. (Leviticus 19:30; Romans 5:1-2; Deut. 11:13; Revelations 21:2; 2nd Samuel 24:18-25; 1st Chronicles 21:18; 2nd Chronicles 3:1; and Ezekiel 45-16 through Ezekiel 46:18).
Lastly, the reason you should not be afraid of being alone, or even afflicted is because of God's great love for you and your ability to express the receiving of this blessing by making Disciple (Matthew 28:18-2)/ You will be in heaven and reconciled to the One True God, this is what the Apostle Paul teaches, this is true of the afterlife for you who truly love God, nothing will ever separate you from God (Romans 11:15 and Romans 5:10-11).
Romans 11:15. For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
10For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
11And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
Finally scriptures says, in Romans 15:5-6, "5Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like minded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: 6That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Did You Know? President Andrew Jackson began to aggressively implement a broad policy of Indian removal in the 1830s.

Indian Removal Act - Kicked out of their homes and starved to death
The Indian Removal Act was signed into law by Andrew Jackson on May 28, 1830, authorizing the president to grant unsettled lands west of the Mississippi in exchange for Indian lands within existing state borders. A few tribes went peacefully, but many resisted the relocation policy. During the fall and winter of 1838 and 1839, the Cherokees were forcibly moved west by the United States government. Approximately 4,000 Cherokees died on this forced march, which became known as the "Trail of Tears."
