men? By God’s word we know his rampant iniquity is obvious and rife with sin (no?). Did he have some of God’s mercies pulled from him (yes!); in 1 Kings 11 the rending of the Kingdom, and for David’s namesake as YHWH had promised, the Kingdom was torn from Solomon’s “only” son for Solomon’s iniquity. Continuing in 1 Kings 11, verse 13 takes out Solomon’s ability to be the one that fulfilled! Yet Hebrews 1.5 (and 5.5) affirms 2 Samuel 7 and Psalm 2 and 89 to be fulfilled in our Lord Jesus Christ, and again in Acts 13.33. Where are the passages that cry Solomon fulfilling any of these besides the misplaced “house building scenario”? Has not the Scripture revealed Christ descended from David: John 7.42; see Romans 1.3? No matter your interpretation of partial fulfillment, or single, or both, all things concerning these prophecies are only perfected in Christ (or not yet perfected for those that choose to reject Jesus Christ). Like the Ark, Jesus guarded all the commandments of the Father, budding forth as the Manna. He is the living bread of life. Even the first time the word Ark appears in the Scripture it is Joseph’s coffin; Jesus is the preeminent fulfillment of both the Ark and Joseph in the Resurrection Life, as the Father YHWH Elohim places upon him the multicolored coat.
Let’s look again with a different highlight on 2 Samuel 7 with additional passages:
[2 Samuel 7:14-15 KJV Freevised Version] 14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men: 15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took [it] from Saul, whom I put away before [you].
This passage is expressing a potential context of “if he commits iniquity”, implying that it was possible that Jesus could have sinned, or there would have been no point of the temptation in Matthew 4.
This is prophesied in [Isaiah 7:14-16 KJV Freevised Version] :
14 Therefore [Adonai] himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. 15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good. 16 For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that [you abhor] shall be forsaken of both her kings.
Then this is confirmed in [Hebrews 5:8-10 KJV Freevised Version] :
8 Though he were a Son, yet [he] learned [by] obedience the things which he suffered; 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10 Called of God [a] high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
Solomon the son on the other hand, with seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines filled up his cup with iniquity. So much so, it’s a seeming mystery that Solomon only has a lineage of three recorded children in the Scripture. Having loved so many women, he should have passed up Abraham on the highway to the children of the sands of the sea—right? On the other hand, if you follow the pavers in the path that Almighty God provides, you can see what might have happened to all of his children? For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites [1 Kings 11:5 KJV]. Is not Milcom the same as Molech? (and Chemosh connected in 1 Kings 11.7 and 2 Kings 23.13). Weren’t they making their children pass through the fire: Leviticus 18.21, Deuteronomy 18.10, 2 Kings 16.3, 2 Kings 17.17, 2 Kings 21.6, 2 Kings 23.10 (see verse 13), 2 Chronicles 33.6, Jeremiah 32.34-35, Ezekiel 16.21, Ezekiel 20.26, 31, and Ezekiel 23.37. This puts Solomon-Worshipping systems like Freemasonry into a “New Light”, don’t you think? There is a place where darkness only darkness contrives, yet poses as a lamp on the path to life.
Now depending on your belief system, religion, or denomination, certain questions and objections are likely to be flying all over the place. We have established that it’s acceptable to have questions. You are in a great place. If you didn’t have any questions then you would be a know it all (kia), and thinking you know everything makes you not-so-humble, especially chiefly to the Scripture. KIA is also an acronym for killed in action. Don’t be dead. There is a lot to work out, so put that inquiring mind to work and make new discoveries. This is how The Word comes to life to those who seek him diligently (10b).
First let’s pay attention to the fact that we haven’t left the accepted text of the Biblical sages. Before the ANTI-KJV activists start objecting, you have to realize the author needs to quote something, and there is no way to please everybody. The Authorized Version or King James Version (KJV), 1611, 1769, outside of the United Kingdom is in the public domain, currently free to use without permission under the author’s place of citizenship in the USA. This is the main reason it is quoted, and the slight edits to common English and replacing the Lord’s name calls for the reference of “Freevised Version”, sometimes labeled as KJV-F. However, as already indicated you are free and encouraged to test the claims made in the Great Temple Deception to any translation. The challenge is to show where any printed version will yield a different understanding.
The main point is simple: are there two versions of the same story in the text or not? Did YHWH say something different through Nathan the prophet, whereby King David later contradicts YHWH when David says “Hear me”? Clearly there is! Should you follow along and make the effort to conclude the same with your preferred version of reading Scripture, then a follow-up question ensues for the sound realist: can you find the bridge passage(s) to explain logically and literally where it is written that YHWH changed his mind? Through much effort, the author is yet to find YHWH’s road of His own repentance in the lamplighter of the feet (11).
Until such proof comes forward…David lied (or misrepresented for those that like the soft approach), just as it is written: let God be true and every man a liar (12). Now some might say David misunderstood. We will deal with whether David lied or misrepresented or misunderstood a bit later in more detail. For now, we need to firmly establish that there is a contradiction in the text, and note why this is the case. Does the Scripture lie? Or does King David go off the trail Yahh overlaid? We know that David had some colored history, and so as not to take up unnecessary space, we won’t belabor the point. Let’s just note quick reference: adultery (13) leading to murder (14) of his newly stolen wife’s honorable husband (15), and getting 70,000 of his own people terminated (16). David was even almost himself killed by giants long after slaying Goliath (17), so there is a lot in the text to consider on this subject, besides the usually repeated stories. Being that David was a little flawed like the rest of us, it shouldn’t be too hard to understand he might have lied about something he had in his “own heart” (18). This is not hard unless you have David-worship beyond what the text says is valid, as King David was a mashiach (anointed) as a type of the coming messiah (19). Surely David is worthy to be noted on every account of the role God raised him to play, but he must be loved within the right framework. To love David is to love his Elohim just as David loved Him, as David genuinely longed for YHWH Elohim. To love David more than his Elohim is to be idolatrous and ridiculous. Therefore, if we think straight and view the text for what it says, we can see that David was at least in error, and move forward to determine what caused it, what is meant by his interaction, and most importantly what this all means concerning the temple and then eschatologically! Is there an end-time message the church has been missing?
This is where David fulfilled YHWH’s will as the great servant king of Yahh that he was. Though greatly imperfect like all men (save Christ), he followed more than enough in the commands of YHWH to find the Lord’s grace and mercy in the prophecy that was revealed to him through Nathan. David was a man seeking God’s heart.
Some have gotten most of the first half right, as we see a reflection in Acts 13:
[Acts 13:21-24 KJV Freevised Version] 21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years. 22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse,
