HEARTLESS TOMBS OF THE DEAD REAP WOES

My Dear Precious Child,
     My Son Jesus Christ was teaching the lesson that I told Him to teach by warning the Pharisees (who were the politicians) and the scribes (who were the lawyers and lawmakers at the time) about the calamities and woes that were going to come upon them because of the way they treated the poor, the widows, the orphans and the other least fortunate people.  I accused the governmental officials of being hidden tombs upon which people walk.  (Luke 11:44)  I meant that they were dead on the inside, heartless to the cries and needs of the people.  
    One of the lawyers told Jesus that he felt perplexed that Jesus had talked in such an insulting way to him and the other governing officials,  (Luke 11:45)  Jesus told him that the lawyers were going to inherit woes and calamities in their lives on earth also, just like the politicians, because they also laid burdens upon people and did not lift a finger to lighten their burdens. (Luke 11:46)  Even the poor and other least fortunate people paid their tithes, meaning taxes, and yet they received no justice or mercy from the officials when they had the need for seeds to plant for crops to grow to feed their families and sell in order to house their families.  Jesus was adamant about the seeds that the governmental officials had planted into the kingdom of the hell by their obeying the voice of the devil in refusing to help the least fortunate people.
    The teachings by Jesus on the woes that were to come into the lives of the officials were meant to warn the politicians and the religious leaders to turn from their evil ways of oppression of the poor and for them to have mercy instead of judgment and condemnation for the poor.  Relating to the widows and orphans, their poor situations in life were, and often still are, the result of the killing of young men who have fought in the wars that Israel so regularly engaged, in defiance of My commandment not to kill.  So the conditions of the widows and orphans was certainly of no fault of their own, but instead the fault was on the nation of Israel whose wars had cost the young husbands and fathers their lives on the battlefield.  Instead of the governmental officials of Israel taking up the duty to take care of the widows and orphans of the young men who had fought for the nation, they treated them like the dregs of the nation.  
   That offensive tradition of the spoils of war has never changed in countries.  The governments make heroes of the dead young men, but the officials often leave the families without adequate support.   To the injured and maimed young men with families, if the men remain alive their families are also treated like the dregs at the bottom of the barrel, often neglecting them for being injured.  Jesus was adamant in His teachings about the woes that were going to come upon the politicians, the lawyers and the lawmakers because of the way they treated the battle scarred soldiers and their families.  The officials used them for their dirty work of killing, and then discarded them as far as supporting and rehabilitating them.  In My eyes, that comports to doing the same thing to Me, what they did to the least fortunate people in their countries. (Matthew 25:31-46)  In that parable by Jesus Christ, He said that what you do to the least fortunate of people, you do to Me.
    Under My new covenant of the Holy Spirit there is no need for battles which kill young men and leave families at the mercy of the officials because very often their hearts are just like what Jesus said about the Pharisees (who were the politicians) whom He said were heartless.  Under My new covenant of the Holy Spirit with My kingdom of God in operation in your life, My instructions through Jesus Christ are to refuse to return evil for evil done to you, and to only return good for evil.  (Matthew 5:38-48)  In doing that exercise of My love in the earth, there is no reason for war because you, as one side in a dispute, refuse to fight.  My Holy Spirit wrote the same truth through the apostle and prophet Paul.  I said that you must return good for evil done to you. (Romans 12:14-21)
    To My children who only return good deeds for evil done to them, there is never any reason for war because good always overcomes evil.  The old covenant stories of wars and their horrible repercussions are written as examples for My children about the lingering effects of war so that you will avoid war.  The results of wars are calamities, woes, injuries, death and loss of lives of young people.   Under My new covenant of love, it's never necessary to engage in war with enemies because good will always overcome evil. (James 4:1-10)  
    My children of promise must avoid the politicians and religious leaders who are like the lawyers and politicians of the time when Jesus walked the earth.  The governmental authorities who refuse to meet the needs of the least fortunate members of society, even if the officials call themselves by My name, they are like the ones whom Jesus talked about.  They are heartless hidden tombs upon which people walk.  If you bind yourself to them in political association, you will also inherit the woes of the devil in your life on earth.    
    Your Father of New and More Perfect Ways
