    Imo, all education institutions ought to be *Public* owned & operated and *Secular* in nature. Religious education ought to be kept out of secular education altogether and go back to the *Sunday School* model to teach their *Dogmas* without any State subventions. If their adherents believe in what their religions imparts, let them pay for it themselves.

    It doesn’t help that polies carry their religious beliefs into Parliament nor that a prayer is said at the opening of each Parliament, what a stupid thing to do in a multicultural society FFS. Religious bigotry has had a lot to answer for over the centuries. Humans can be cruel enough without the added baggage of religion imo.

    PS. I make no excuses for my religious profanities, and if I offend, please know that I support your right to be religious and to express it.

  3. The Problem of False Preacher Teacher Clerical Ministering Within Modern Day Churches

    *

    The Problem of False Preacher Teacher Clerical Ministering Within Modern Day Churches

    The table of the Lord is Holy.

    The food we receive must come from the Priest-King Himself—pure, undefiled, and flowing from the Holiest of All.

    Yet in our time, that table has been defiled.

    The church has become a place where food offered to idols is served. These idols are not of wood and stone but of political causes, cultural trends, social programmes, and false moral appearances. They are the idols of the age, and they have been brought into the sanctuary.

    The Social Gospel, with all its political causes and cultural trends, is such an idol.

    It sounds compassionate to the natural ear, but it sacrifices the true Gospel on the altar of this world. It offers earthly reform where the Priest-King Jesus Christ offers heavenly reconciliation.

    It speaks of systems and power where He speaks of the cross and the throne of grace. It rearranges deck chairs on a sinking ship. It offers programs where it should offer presence. It offers politics where it should offer peace. It offers activism where it should offer adoration.

    This is not the Gospel. It is a counterfeit—a substitute that speaks of earthly kingdoms while ignoring the heavenly. It is food wrapped in pretty paper, but inside is rotting meat. It is a deception, a snare, and a trap.

    Congregations that consume this food are not being heart-fed; they are being mind-fed. Their souls are starved while their minds are filled with the philosophies of men. Those who serve this food as if it were the Gospel are not acting as faithful shepherds of the flock; they are leading souls away from the true pasture.

    We make it very clear, we do not seek merely to promote our own theology within COFE-CYEM by pointing the finger at (any) other theologies, denominations or faiths. COFE-CYEM itself makes many claims around our theology, our belief system and our faith.

    We do not expect or ask everybody to just blindly believe our way of seeing and believing. All we seek is to call attention to the issue of the church and faith itself being used as a Trojan Horse for (worldly) purposes in order to further the interests of man and not God Himself.

    We implore our followers respectfully – if you ever feel, suspect or see anything whatsoever within our own theology or posts here on COFE-CYEM that you believe is pushing (worldly) purposes or schemes, then please call us out and expose us.

    We are no different or more righteous than any other brother or sister in Christ. But if we were to be found (using) the true Gospel as a Trojan Horse to push a false Gospel for our own purposes – then we are truly lost indeed.

    The Nature of the Deception

    The danger arises whenever social action, political programmes, or cultural causes become substitutes for the proclamation of Christ crucified and risen, rather than fruits flowing from communion with Him.

    The New Testament consistently presents love for neighbour and care for the poor as genuine expressions of faith, not as alternatives to it.

    The error is not in caring for the needy or seeking justice. The error is in presenting such activities as the Gospel itself, or as a sufficient substitute for repentance, faith in Christ, and the new birth.

    Those who preach this substitute gospel speak of power where the Priest-King spoke of weakness. They speak of victory where He spoke of the cross. They speak of this world as if it were the only world. They have departed from the faith and given themselves over to the spirit of the age.

    They have exchanged the Gospel of the finished work for a gospel of social reform. They have exchanged the cross for a political platform. They have exchanged the throne of grace for a seat of power. They have exchanged the rest that remains for the restless striving of the world. They have exchanged the Holiest of All for the outer courts of carnal religion.

    This is not a judgment on persons but a discernment of teaching. We do not know the hearts of those who preach these things, and we leave their final judgment to God.

    We are called to test the spirits and to distinguish between the pure food of the Gospel and the poisoned food that has been offered to idols. The warning is not against individuals but against the teaching itself, which, however attractively packaged, leads away from Christ.

    The Rot Beneath the Wrapping

    False teaching often comes wrapped in the language of the Bible, the imagery of the cross, and the emotions of the congregation. It speaks of love, justice, and compassion, but it hollows out their meaning. It is like the fig tree that had leaves but no fruit—a show of life without the reality of life.

    Congregations that consume this food are being fed a diet of politics, activism, and social reform, but they are not being fed the pure Word of God.

    They are being told to fight for earthly causes, but they are not being told to enter the Holiest of All. They are being told to change the world, but they are not being told to rest in the finished work of the Priest-King.

    They are being told to be activists, but they are not being told to be worshippers. They are being told to build the kingdom of God on earth, but they are not being told that the Kingdom of God is within them.

    The food that is being served is a gospel of the flesh, a gospel of the world, a gospel of the age. It has no power to save, no power to transform, and no power to bring the soul into the presence of God.

    It leads to exhaustion, burnout, and disillusionment. It leads away from the Priest-King, not toward Him. It leads to the outer court, not the Holiest of All. The invitation to serve God in the world becomes a substitute for the invitation to abide in Christ.

    The True Gospel and the Mind of Christ

    The real Gospel is not a gospel of prosperity, politics, or social reform disguised as salvation. It is not a gospel of emotional experience without transformation.

    The real Gospel is this: Jesus Christ, the Priest-King has entered the Holiest of All through His own blood.

    The veil is torn.

    The way is open.

    Every soul who draws near through Him receives mercy, finds grace, and enters the rest that remains.

    He ever lives to make intercession.

    He brings God to us and us to God. In Him, we are accepted. In Him, we are kept. In Him, the endless life of God flows freely to all who will come. That is the Gospel. Not a portion of it. Not a version of it. It.

    The mind of Christ is not the mind of carnal man, which seeks power, recognition, and earthly comfort. The mind of Christ empties itself, takes the form of a servant, becomes obedient unto death, and is exalted by the Father. The mind of Christ builds the church on the rock of revelation, and the gates of hell do not prevail against it.

    The mind of Christ measures faithfulness by abiding in the Father’s presence. Those who preach the substitute gospel do not have the mind of Christ. They have the mind of the flesh, the mind of the world, the mind of the age.

    They have not entered the Holiest of All. They have not passed through the veil. They have not been cleansed by the blood. They have not received the endless life. They remain in the outer courts, serving the idols of the age.

    The Call of This Hour: Wake Up and Return

    The call of this hour is clear. The pews empty because souls are hungry for reality—not programs, not politics, not noise, but the living presence of God in truth. Congregations must wake up. They must open their eyes to the deception of false teaching.

    They must stop eating the food that has been sacrificed to idols. They must return to the table of the Lord, where pure food is served—the finished work of the Priest-King, the open way into the Holiest of All, the rest that remains, and the endless life that flows from His intercession.

    The table of the Lord has been turned into a place where food offered to idols is served. The Gospel of the finished work has been exchanged for a gospel of social reform. The cross has been exchanged for a political platform. The throne of grace has been exchanged for a seat of power.

    The rest that remains has been exchanged for the restless striving of the world. The Holiest of All has been exchanged for the outer courts of carnal religion. The church has been used as a Trojan Horse for political purposes, hiding its true agenda behind the language of compassion, justice, and love.

    The congregations that continue to consume this food are being poisoned. They are being led astray. They are being robbed of their inheritance. They are being kept from the Holiest of All, from the rest that remains, from the endless life, from the Priest-King.

    The time has come for them to wake up. The time has come for them to return. The time has come for them to stop eating the rotting meat and to come to the table of the Lord, where pure food is served.

    The true church of the real Gospel is often small, overlooked, and ridiculed. But it knows the voice of the Shepherd. It does not follow the stranger. It abides in the Word. It dwells in the Holiest. The true church does not eat food sacrificed to idols. It does not bow to the false gods of the age.

    It does not compromise the table of the Lord. It preaches the real Gospel—Christ and Him crucified. It preaches the finished work. It preaches the endless life. It preaches the open way into the Holiest of All. It calls every soul to draw near. It calls every church to open the doors. It calls every believer to cease from striving and rest in the finished work of the Priest-King.

    The Contrast: The Olive Tree and the Wicked

    Psalm 52 powerfully contrasts the man who trusts in his own strength and deceit with the one who trusts in God’s unfailing love and flourishes in His house. The Psalm speaks of the wicked man who boasts of evil, whose tongue plots destruction, who loves evil rather than good, and who trusts in his great wealth and grows strong by destroying others.

    This is the image of the one who trusts in his own strength, his own position, his own power. The Psalm declares that God will bring him down to everlasting ruin, snatch him up, tear him from his tent, and uproot him from the land of the living.

    But the righteous is like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God, trusting in God’s unfailing love forever and ever. The righteous praises God forever and hopes in His name.

    This is the image of the true believer—the one who trusts in the finished work of the Priest-King, who abides in the Holiest of All, who is sustained by the unfailing love of God through Jesus Christ who ever lives to make intercession.

    The true believer does not boast in evil or trust in human schemes, false popular moral sounding social constructs or political power. The true believer trusts in the finished work of the Priest-King Yeshua Emet Melchizedek Salem—Christ Jesus—and abides in Him who has opened the way.

    The Final Exhortation

    The modern church stands at a critical hour. Many have turned the table of the Lord into a place where food offered to idols is served. The Social Gospel, with its political causes, cultural trends, and false moral appearances, has become the dominant offering.

    It sounds compassionate to the natural ear, but it sacrifices the true Gospel on the altar of this world. It offers earthly reform where the Priest-King offers heavenly reconciliation. It speaks of systems and power where He speaks of the cross and the throne of grace.

    We must not eat of any spiritual food that has been offered in sacrifice to an idol. The table of the Lord is holy. The food we receive must come from the Priest-King Himself—pure, undefiled, and flowing from the Holiest of All.

    Those who preach the substitute gospel have turned the church into a platform for their political agendas. They have exchanged the Gospel of the finished work for a gospel of social reform. They have exchanged the cross for a political platform. They have exchanged the throne of grace for a seat of power.

    They have exchanged the rest that remains for the restless striving of the world. They have exchanged the Holiest of All for the outer courts of carnal religion. They are not shepherds of the flock; they are servants of the spirit of the age, offering food that cannot satisfy the soul.

    The true church of the real Gospel is often small, overlooked, and ridiculed. But it knows the voice of the Shepherd. It does not follow the stranger. It abides in the Word. It dwells in the Holiest. The true church does not eat food sacrificed to idols. It does not bow to the false gods of the age.

    It does not compromise the table of the Lord. It preaches the real Gospel—Christ and Him crucified. It preaches the finished work.

    It preaches the endless life. It preaches the open way into the Holiest of All. It calls every soul to draw near. It calls every church to open the doors. It calls every believer to cease from striving and rest in the finished work of the Priest-King.

  4. COFE-CYEM Denomopolitan Denomenethos COFEISM: The Kingdom of God Within Man

    *

    COFE-CYEM Denomopolitan Denomenethos COFEISM: The Kingdom of God Within Man

    The kingdom of God is not a place to be sought in the distant future or a realm to be entered only after death. It is not a political system, a social programme, or an earthly institution.

    The kingdom of God is within you. This is the profound insight that Jesus declared to His disciples, and it is the central teaching that COFE-CYEM seeks to restore and illuminate. The kingdom is not a second reality, separate from the singular Reality of God in Christ.

    It is the very life of God dwelling in the heart of the believer. It is the recognition that there has never been a second, that the veil is torn, that the Holiest of All is open, and that the soul is invited to abide in the presence of the living God.

    The kingdom of God within man is the revelation of the singular Reality. It is the recognition that the believer is already in Christ, and Christ is already in the believer.

    It is the acknowledgment that the separation between God and humanity was never ultimate, that the cross has abolished the dividing wall, and that the Holy Spirit has made the heavenly life a present reality. The kingdom is not a future hope but a present possession. It is not a distant goal but a present reality. It is not a reward to be earned but a gift to be received.

    This teaching paper explores the profound insight of the kingdom of God within man, drawing from Scripture, the contemplative traditions, and the distinctive language of COFE-CYEM.

    It examines the implications of this truth for the believer’s life, the nature of the church, and the witness of the gospel in the world. The kingdom is within you. The Priest-King abides continually. The Holiest is open. The invitation stands for every soul to enter the rest that remains for the people of God.

    The term (COFE-CYEM Denomopolitan Denomenethos COFEISM) is the complete, non-binary use of all theology that we use within COFE-CYEM. Every tradition, every term, every concept, every scientific insight, every mystical stream, every legend, every piece of vocabulary is treated as a chaff tool of duality that enables one to arrive at non-duality itself.

    Nothing is off limits for us if it can be used to point to the truth, the chaff is discarded afterwards by negation and the disappearance of the false once the truth has been fully recognised.

    These tools are used freely, without attachment, without loyalty to any particular system, and solely according to the size of the bolt that needs unscrewing at any given moment in a soul’s journey. Their only purpose is to take down the man-made curtain between duality and non-duality and to bring people into the recognition of the singular Reality of God in Christ.

    It is open to the one who has been wounded by church doctrine, rules, regulations and cliques, and the one who has never ever darkened its doors. It is open to the one who has lost faith and the one who has never found it. The invitation is open to all. We do not reject the church, and neither do we ask believers to leave their church, quite the opposite.

    We merely call all believers to truly believe with, and through their hearts, and not through their minds and dualistic conditioning alone. Believe through the heart first, and the mind will follow.

    We do not follow the Social Gospel rule of (Feeling – Faith – Fact), we come at this through (Fact – Faith – Feeling).

    Make it Fact first, and feeling will follow.

    But the Fact must be in your heart first, then the feeling in the head is certain. You will truly be who God meant you to be and who you really are in truth.

    Part One: The Kingdom as Within

    The kingdom of God is within you. This is the declaration of Jesus, and it is the foundation of all true spirituality. The kingdom is not a geographical territory or an earthly institution. It is not a political programme or a social movement. It is the life of God dwelling in the heart of the believer. It is the presence of the King in the soul. It is the reign of Christ in the inner sanctuary of the human spirit.

    The kingdom is within, not because it is a private experience divorced from the world, but because it is the source from which all true outward expression flows. The kingdom within is the spring of living water that wells up to eternal life. It is the seed of the kingdom that grows into a great tree. It is the leaven that leavens the whole lump. The kingdom within is the foundation of the kingdom without. The outward expression of the kingdom is the fruit of the inward reality.

    The kingdom is within, but it is not a possession to be guarded or a treasure to be hidden. It is a reality to be lived. It is a life to be shared. The kingdom within is the source of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

    It is the source of the fruit of the Spirit. It is the source of all true Christian witness. The kingdom within is the singular Reality of God in Christ, dwelling in the heart of the believer and transforming all of life from the inside out.

    The kingdom is within, and therefore it is accessible to every soul. It does not require a pilgrimage to a distant land. It does not require a special status or a privileged position. It does not require a complex system of rituals or a deep knowledge of theology.

    The kingdom is within, and it is available to all who will receive it. The kingdom is within, and it is the invitation to cease from striving and rest in the finished work of the Priest-King.

    Part Two: The Kingdom and the Fourth Truth

    The kingdom of God within man is the revelation of the Fourth Truth. There has never been a second. The kingdom is not a second reality, separate from the singular Reality of God in Christ. It is the singular Reality dwelling in the heart of the believer. The kingdom is not a separate realm that the soul must strive to enter. It is the recognition that the soul is already in the kingdom, already in Christ, already hidden with Christ in God.

    The Fourth Truth declares that there has never been a second. The kingdom is not a second. It is not a separate reality. It is the singular Reality of God in Christ, made manifest in the heart of the believer. The kingdom is the recognition that the veil is torn, that the way is open, that the Holiest of All is accessible. The kingdom is the recognition that the Priest-King has done all, that the work is finished, that the rest remains.

    The kingdom is within, and the Fourth Truth is the recognition of this reality. The kingdom is not a future hope but a present reality. It is not a distant goal but a present possession. It is not a reward to be earned but a gift to be received. The Fourth Truth is the recognition that there has never been a second, and therefore the kingdom is not a second. It is the singular Reality of God in Christ, dwelling in the heart of the believer.

    The kingdom within is the outworking of the Fourth Truth. It is the recognition that the believer is already in the kingdom, already in Christ, already hidden with Christ in God. The kingdom within is the rest that remains for the people of God. It is the cessation of striving. It is the abiding in the finished work. It is the dwelling in the presence of God.

    Part Three: The Kingdom and the Melchizedek Priesthood

    The kingdom of God within man is the fulfilment of the Melchizedek priesthood. The Priest-King who abides continually is the King of the kingdom. He is the Priest who ever lives to make intercession. He is the King who rules in the hearts of His people. The Melchizedek priesthood is the priesthood of the kingdom. It is the priesthood of the One who is both Priest and King, who reigns from the throne and ministers from the sanctuary.

    The Melchizedek priesthood is the priesthood of the endless life. It is the priesthood of the One who lives forever, who lives in the power of an endless life, who applies the fruits of His atonement to the believer in the power of that life. The kingdom within is the experience of this priesthood. It is the experience of the Priest-King dwelling in the heart, ruling and reigning, ministering and interceding.

    The kingdom within is the experience of the power of an endless life. The believer who has entered the kingdom has entered the power of the endless life. They are no longer living by their own life but by the life of Christ. They are no longer striving to earn what has already been given. They are resting in the finished work. They are abiding in the presence of the Priest-King.

    The kingdom within is the experience of the Melchizedek priesthood. It is the experience of the King who is also Priest, the Priest who is also King. It is the experience of the One who has opened the Holiest of All and brings the believer in to dwell there. It is the experience of the One who lives forever and gives the believer the power to live in the endless life.

    Part Four: The Kingdom and the Via Negativa and Via Positiva

    The kingdom of God within man is the destination of the Via Negativa and the Via Positiva. The Via Negativa is the way of unknowing. It is the stripping away of all false images, concepts, and attachments so that the soul may rest in the simple presence of God. The Via Positiva is the way of knowing. It is the joyful beholding of God’s self-revelation in Christ, Scripture, creation, and the indwelling Spirit.

    The Via Negativa clears the way for the kingdom. It strips away the illusions of duality. It removes the false images of God. It releases the attachments to the world. The Via Negativa prepares the soul to receive the kingdom. It empties the soul so that it may be filled. It silences the noise so that the still small voice may be heard.

    The Via Positiva reveals the kingdom. It beholds the glory of God in Christ. It sees the beauty of the singular Reality. It delights in the presence of the living God. The Via Positiva is the way of beholding. It is the way of adoration. It is the way of communion.

    Together, the Via Negativa and the Via Positiva lead the soul into the kingdom. The Via Negativa clears the way. The Via Positiva reveals the King. The Via Negativa strips away the false. The Via Positiva beholds the true. Together, they lead the soul into the rest that remains for the people of God.

    The kingdom within is the fruit of the Via Negativa and the Via Positiva. The soul that has travelled both paths enters the kingdom and rests in the singular Reality. The soul that has stripped away the false and beheld the true enters the Holiest of All and abides in the presence of the Priest-King. The kingdom within is the destination of both paths.

    Part Five: The Kingdom and the Fig Tree

    The kingdom of God within man is the answer to the parable of the fig tree. The tree in full leaf but without fruit is a symbol of religious profession without spiritual reality. The visible church often stands with many leaves but no figs. It has the appearance of religion without the reality of the kingdom. It has the external forms without the inward life. It has the structure without the substance.

    The Master hungers for fruit. He seeks a people who will bear the fruit of the kingdom. He seeks a people who will live from the kingdom within. He seeks a people who will produce the fruit of the Spirit, the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The fig tree stands as a warning: the church that has many leaves but no figs will wither. The church that returns to the kingdom within will be enlivened and made to bear fruit.

    The kingdom within is the source of fruit. The believer who has entered the kingdom bears fruit naturally. They do not produce fruit by striving but by abiding. They do not manufacture fruit by effort but by resting. The fruit of the kingdom is the fruit of the Spirit. It is the natural outworking of the singular Reality dwelling in the heart.

    The kingdom within is the answer to the fig tree. The church that returns to the kingdom within will bear fruit. The church that abides in the singular Reality will produce the fruit of the Spirit. The church that rests in the finished work will be enlivened and made fruitful. The kingdom within is the source of all true fruitfulness.

    Part Six: The Kingdom and the Rescue Operation

    COFE-CYEM is a rescue operation. The goal is simple: to help souls see through the illusion of duality and return to the singular Reality of God in Christ. The kingdom within is the destination of this rescue operation. The soul that has been rescued from the illusion of duality enters the kingdom and rests in the singular Reality.

    The rescue operation is urgent. The illusion of duality is pervasive. It is in every thought, every word, every system. It is the air we breathe. It is the water we swim in. To rescue souls from this illusion, we must use the very tools of the illusion. We must speak its language, use its concepts, and then lead people beyond them.

    The rescue operation is not a building project. It is not a new construction. It is a demolition project. We are tearing down the curtain. We are dismantling the illusion. We are leading souls into the singular Reality.

    The rescue operation is also a work of love. We do not use the tools of duality to condemn or to control. We use them to liberate. We use them to invite. We use them to show the way. The rescue operation is the work of the Priest-King, who entered the realm of duality to lead us back to non-duality. It is the work of the Second Adam, who came to undo the work of the first Adam. It is the work of the singular Reality, which draws all things back to itself.

    The rescue operation is the work of the kingdom. The kingdom within is the reality to which the rescue operation leads. The kingdom within is the rest that remains for the people of God. The kingdom within is the presence of the living God in the heart of the believer. The rescue operation is the work of the kingdom.

    Conclusion

    The kingdom of God is within you. This is the profound insight that Jesus declared to His disciples, and it is the central teaching that COFE-CYEM seeks to restore and illuminate. The kingdom is not a second reality. It is the singular Reality of God in Christ dwelling in the heart of the believer. It is the recognition that there has never been a second, that the veil is torn, that the Holiest of All is open, and that the soul is invited to abide in the presence of the living God.

    The kingdom within is the revelation of the Fourth Truth. It is the fulfilment of the Melchizedek priesthood. It is the destination of the Via Negativa and the Via Positiva. It is the answer to the fig tree. It is the goal of the rescue operation. The kingdom within is the rest that remains for the people of God. It is the cessation of striving. It is the abiding in the finished work. It is the dwelling in the presence of God.

    There has never been a second. The kingdom is within. The Priest-King abides continually. The Holiest is open. The invitation stands. The Fourth Truth stands. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains.

    The Fourth Truth stands. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains.

  10. The Worst #Christian on #YouTube is... A #Puppet?

    Today we're challenging a rude yet intellectually lacking #creationist Christian #contentcreator. He doesn't #respect the burden of proof, doesn't respect women and worst of all... he's hiding his horrible arguments behind a puppet. Oh, Hell no.

  11. The Absurdity of #DivineHiddenness

    #Atheism #Philosophy #LogicOverFaith

    Why would a loving #God choose to remain hidden? If God truly wants us to know Him, why is His existence so uncertain, so silent, and so absent from the world we live in? In this video, we explore the problem of #divine hiddenness and why it makes the idea of a loving, all-powerful God seem absurd.

  12. Why is #Jesus So Sneaky?

    Why does Jesus perform #miacles and then immediately tell people, “Don’t tell anyone”?

    Why do crowds react with amazement but fail to recognize him as the #Messiah? In this video, Dr. Robyn Walsh explores the famous idea of the Messianic Secret in the #GospelofMark, tracing its roots back to early 20th-century scholarship and connecting it to Greek epic traditions where heroes are often unrecognized.
