Many have asked me, “What is your new book about?”
- It tells of God’s eternal purpose of reproducing Himself.
- It speaks of God’s plan to accomplish this. He is Love, and Love shares itself and gives of itself.
- So God planned it out and created mankind to reproduce Himself in. He will use human beings as the medium for the multiplying of Himself. God’s kingdom is wherever He rules.
- His plan uses the Law of Harvest. Whatever is sown, that is what shall be reaped. Since God is Love, He will sow the seed of Love into the human being, His spiritual garden. Each seed bears its own kind.
- And the seed of Love is God’s SEED/SON, the Word made flesh dwelling among us. No greater love exists on this earth than to give up your life for another. This the Son of God did. And this great display of love for you and me bought our ticket of deliverance from the sin we were in. For Christ, the Anointed One for this honor, said this: “Except a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone. But if it die, it brings forth much fruit.” He was that grain, and the much fruit is you and I. After we receive the seed of Love into our hearts, He helps us grow spiritually to harvest.
- In the present dispensation of time, some humans will bear 30 fold, some 60 fold and some 100 fold fruit (Matt. 13: 1-23). Some will remain children of God; some will grow to young adulthood spiritually, and then there are some who will grow to full maturity, becoming just like the original Seed/Son and His apostles.
- Right now God is calling many. :Many are called, but few are chosen” by Him to come to full maturity during this age. These are called “the elect,” the remnant, and the first fruits. They will be the first ones to become like the early apostles.
- Moreover, they will be the first to be granted immortality. These over comers of all things are the manifested sons of God and will do the “greater works” that Christ spoke about. They will sit with Christ on His throne (Rev. 3: 20-21). In a word, God will have reproduced Himself in them.
- This is the royal destiny of God’s elect. Hence, the title: The Royal Destiny of God’s Elect. Who knows? You may be one of them. Perhaps we can walk together and help each other and love each other on this road to immortality. Kenneth Wayne Hancock

Sounds great. Quick question, do have an electronic version?
Be blessed. God is with you.
So God planned it out and created mankind to reproduce Himself in. He will use human beings as the medium for the multiplying of Himself.
This is not Christian doctrine. Actually seems bizarre. Man is not a molecule of the divine expression or assertion. . If God is multiplying himself where does redemption through Christ enter in ?
The statement is like saying we are all mini Jesus creatures from the Great Octopus God. of God. What would be the purpose of God multiplying himself if He is already infinite ?
Hey, Carl. I would have liked you to have said that “man is the glory of God.” Christ promised his disciples that they would do greater works than what Christ did. I am sure you have read this. To do the mighty works of Christ, it would take the same amount of the divine Spirit inside and working through to accomplish them. We are talking about miracles. It is the “glory that shall be revealed in us” (Rom. 8: 18).
Carl, I believe the scripture when it promises this: “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is” (I John 3: 2). That is a prophecy. Shall be like Him. He tells me to believe His word, His inspired word through the Spirit of Christ in the apostle John. Do not fault me for believing this.
“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.” (John 1: 12). He has given us this power, Carl. God will soon fill His elect with His Spirit in a real way, not the pentecostal/charismatic way. In so doing He will have multiplied Himself. Christ is the Seed/Son; we receive the Spirit/Seed/word of God into our hearts. As we reckon ourselves dead on the cross with Christ, and by faith and belief in His resurrection, we “are raised to walk in a newness of life, thereby beginning the growth of Love, who is the Spirit of Love, in our lives. A new life, destined to grow into the likeness of very Christ–eventually.
What would be the purpose of God multiplying himself if He is already infinite ? you asked. He is Love. Love shares itself with others. That is what Love/God does. He said, My ways are not your ways; my thoughts are not your thoughts. Christ is the Seed of Love (greater love hath no man than this, to lay down his life for another). And seeds grow and multiply themselves…This is undeniable. The churches do not teach these things from the scriptures because it has not been revealed to them. Hope this gives understanding.
You would have been perfectly correct if you had said, “This is not Church doctrine.” No, the churches don’t have this, I am sad to say.
Re: redemption…I have written extensively on the death of our “old man Adam” and the sin nature (Rom. 6: 1-12). Here are some of those articles: https://immortalityroad.wordpress.com/2018/02/03/repentance-and-the-spiritual-growth-cycle/
These over comers of all things are the manifested sons of God and will
Human mortals as sons of God ? This is not Christian doctrine. We cannot be elevated this way. Seems much of your thinking is Mormonism.
When Christ returns believers will receive immortality, a new spiritual body will swallow up this old flesh body. Carl, the Word speaks of the sons (children of God) all the way through the Bible. Who told you that we humans could not become the sons of God? We are not elevated any which way; “we are dead and our life is hid with Christ in God.” I know that you have read this before. Yesterday’s manna will not suffice today’s hunger for the truth. Yesteryear’s doctrines will not suffice as food for the sons and daughters of God for the end time. God is revealing more and more light as the day dawns on His soon coming kingdom. “Whose government and peace there shall be no end…” kwh
This is the royal destiny of God’s elect.
God’s chosen are the Jews to bring revelation/presence/existence of God to man. God’s elect are those who bring the message of Christ, the Gospel, t to live in Christian charity and seek redemption through Jesus. The elect are not the ones destined to heaven but the ones through whom God acts and delivers His blessings.
The Jews do not have the true revelation of God; they rejected, and still do en masse, Christ. How could they bring “revelation/presence/existence of God to man”? Christ said that He was only “sent to the lost sheep of the House of Israel (Ten Tribes), who were not Jews…When you truly receive the Spirit of Christ, you no longer are seeking redemption; you are redeemed, paid for with His blood….The Jews are followers of the Babylonian Talmud. Christ told the Jews: “You are of your father the devil…” (John 8: 44). Enough said.
I think Jews do bring revelation/presence/existence of God to man (see below better expressed than I ):
Seven Biblical Reasons
Why Christians Should Support Israel
By Pastor John Hagee
Everything Christians do should be based upon the Biblical text. Here are seven solid Bible
reasons why Christians should support Israel.
1. Genesis 12:3 “And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee; and
in thee shall all nations of the earth be blessed.” Point: God has promised to bless the man
or nation that blesses the Chosen People. History has proven beyond reasonable doubt
that the nations that have blessed the Jewish people have had the blessing of God; the
nations that have cursed the Jewish people have experienced the curse of God.
2. St. Paul recorded in Romans 15:27 “For if the Gentiles have shared in their (the Jews)
spiritual things, they are indebted to minister to them also in material things.”
Christians owe a debt of eternal gratitude to the Jewish people for their contributions
that gave birth to the Christian faith. Jesus Christ, a prominent Rabbi from Nazareth said,
“Salvation is of the Jews!” (St. John 4:22) consider what the Jewish people have given to
Christianity:
a) The Sacred Scripture
b) The Prophets
c) The Patriarchs
d) Mary, Joseph, and Jesus Christ of Nazareth
e) The Twelve Disciples
f) The Apostles
It is not possible to say, “I am a Christian” and not love the Jewish people. The Bible
teaches that love is not what you say, but what you do. (1 John 3:18) “A bell is not a bell
until you ring it, a song is not a song until you sing it, love is not love until you share it.”
3. While some Christians try to deny the connection between Jesus of Nazareth and the
Jews of the world, Jesus never denied his Jewishness. He was born Jewish, He was
circumcised on the eighth day in keeping with Jewish tradition, He had his Bar Mitzvah
on his 13th birthday, He kept the law of Moses, He wore the Prayer Shawl Moses
commanded all Jewish….
So are you saying that for us as Christians the Old Testament is now worthless ? I agree that the Jews are not part of the perscribed New Covenant.
I can’t finds the verses at the moment but Paul instructs Gentile Christians that they must retain a special love and respect for them despite their not having accepted Jesus. Your answers to my paragraphs do generate understanding but I still feel that to be elevated the way you describe gives us a level of semi divinity, even equal divinity, and as humans we can be in God’s embrace but not members of His corporate board. The Mormons seem to say we may reach Godhood in this salvation process , an idea I find blasphemous if not just plain silly. From The Royal Destiny page 9 you say “For the elect of God will be changed from a slave -to– sin to a righteous king made in the image of God” You mean we become perfect ? That does not seem to coincide with basic Christian doctrine. You cite Gal 4:19 in that we become like Christ in every way, to have Christ formed in you. Well that idea is scriptural but I cannot imagine being so elevated to divinity. Then I am not human. “For Christ will invite the elect to sit down with Him on His throne and to be His viceroys and ambassadors. Their rule will extend to the furthest reaches of the earth. Then God is no longer sovereign. WOW . That’s a huge jump from being a decent fellow and praying to walk in the Light of the Holy Spirit. From p 10 “overcomers that sit with Christ on his throne” I could not possibly imagine that as redemption and salvation. p 10 “It is my hope that this volume will help all those who have chosen to run the race.” Well that is delightful imagery for wanting to be a Christian but is it a matter of participatory redemption which contradicts salvation by faith or grace alone. ? Actually the idea of participatory regeneration does not offend as I go with faith not without good works.
So I have not gotten past page 10 of your book – I am so busy with just daily routine even as retired and much attention to reading adventure thriller fiction, news junkie and my cartoon blog carldagostino.wordpress.com .
In 2016 a little each day I hand wrote the entire New Testament. A lot went on in my mind but the most dramatic is that it left me with such a sincere sense of humility and that is why I have a problem with your idea that we may become equal or part of in the majesty of God.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. The political Zionists have overrun the true Judah people there in the country of Israel. 85% of Jewry are not descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel, according to Arthur Koestler, a world famous Jewish writer of Darkness at Noon and researcher. In his book The Thirteenth Tribe, 1976, he says that most of Jewry today have Khazar ancestry, a Turko-Mongol tribe in south central Asia. who converted to Judaism (any encyclopedia under “Khazaria” will tell you this). As I have said before, the Talmud that the Jews revere and live by is an anti-Christian book. Check it out yourself. I challenge you, Carl. I am also a busy retiree. So we have time for the truth. Just start there. And if I am correct on this, then please give the rest of what I am saying a serious look, putting aside preconceived ideas.
Yesterday’s manna will not feed today’s hunger for the truth. Wayne
an anti-Christian book.
Can it be so it it predates the New Testament. Why do Jesus and Paul repeatedly refer to the OT “as it is written” and why is references to OT as Jesus fulfilling the prophesy key ? If Talmud and Law given to Jews through Moses by God anti Christian must be anti God ? I am lost on this. At church pastor quotes from OT and NT. Is OT not Christian scripture ?
Carl, the Talmud was not given through Moses. The Talmud is a collection of commentaries. “The term “Talmud” normally refers to the collection of writings named specifically the Babylonian Talmud (Talmud Bavli), although there is also an earlier collection known as the Jerusalem Talmud (Talmud Yerushalmi). When referring to the post-biblical periods during which the Talmud was being compiled, those of the Talmudic academies and the Babylonian exilarchate, Jewish sources used the term “Babylonia” long after its geopolitical obsolescence.
“It may also traditionally be called Shas (ש״ס), a Hebrew abbreviation of shisha sedarim, or the “six orders” of the Mishnah. The Talmud has two components; the Mishnah (Hebrew: משנה, c. year 200 CE), a written compendium of Rabbinic Judaism’s Oral Torah; and the Gemara (circa year 500), an elucidation of the Mishnah and related Tannaitic writings that often ventures onto other subjects and expounds broadly on the Hebrew Bible. “Talmud” translates literally as “instruction” in Hebrew, and the term may refer to either the Gemara alone, or the Mishnah and Gemara together” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talmud).
Remember how Christ called out the Jewish leaders of His day and said to them in the harshest of rebukes: “Ye are of your father the devil.” And He further calls them the “synagogue of Satan” twice (Rev. 2: 9 & 3: 9).
Question for you. Which people are the only ones that God said He hated? Answer: Esau, known as Edom. And wouldn’t you know that Esau’s descendants converted to Judaism in 125 B.C. and took over the politcal power (Herod and his heirs) and Judaism’s religious power in Annas and Caiaphus, the high priests.
Here is a short excerpt from the Jewish Encyclopedia explaining further. It is speaking of the Judean king John Hyrcanus: “After victoriously ending the war in Samaria, he proceeded to subdue the Edomites, always a menace to the southern parts of his domains. With funds which he is said to have obtained from David’s sepulcher, he hired foreign troops, dismantled Adora and Marissa, the strong places of Edom, and forced the Edomites to accept the Jewish religion and submit to circumcision. This is the first instance of forcible conversion in Jewish history. In this Hyrcanus allowed his zeal for the Jewish cause to lead him to take a step which later wrought harm; for to the Edomites belonged the family of the Herodians, who were to bring about the ruin of the Hasmoneans” (http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/7972-hyrcanus-john-johanan-i).
Carl, Hagee and many others are say that these people we should support. But Christ warned us of them, saying, “I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2: 9). Carl, read this article that explains more of this truth: https://immortalityroad.wordpress.com/2013/10/15/god-hates-certain-things-and-certain-people/
It is a tangled skein of yarn to unravel. We must stick close to our Master Teacher and He will guide us by His light…kwh
I appreciate the effort you put in this response to enhance my understanding.
Carl, thank you for caring enough to comment on these important subjects. kwh
85% of Jewry are not descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel, acc
I don’t doubt that but does this mean today’s Jews and God not on same team anymore? There is no relationship today’s Jews with God or do we consider Jews only as OT Jews for sake of definition and discussion? Paul says Gentile Christians are related to Abraham in God’s spiritual way , part of a new people in Christ,an extension from first covenant people and we have no blood to Jewish OT patriarchs at all. In my case I’m half Roman and half Sicilian and as a Christian Paul says Abraham is my ancestor.
There is much confusion out there and most people do not realize that Jews and the current country of Israel do not equal the Israel (12 tribes) spoken of in the Bible…broken down even farther the Tribe of Israel (10 tribes-lost) and the Tribe of Judah.
All that aside….I will leave the “judging and hating” of certain peoples to God because only He knows their hearts and I will just love ALL. But, gaining knowledge is important for understanding.
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your discussion (back and forth with Carl). I do love a civilized discussion with pure love and genuine desire for understanding in both of your hearts.
Thanks for your thoughts. It is all about the truth, for Christ is the King of Truth, one might say. He said a very famous quote about the truth: “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Quite a promise–one to hold on to. Love you.
Yes, understand current state of Israel not Israel of the Bible so who or what is it ? Christians love and support and defend Israel but what are we to think of it today ? Seems God’s plan that this state exists and what do today’s Israelis think of themselves as Abrahamic/Mosaic people in our time ?
This is a tangled skein of yarn that is difficult to unravel. Jewish scholars say that only about 15% of Jewry are flesh descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So says Arthur Koestler in “The Thirteenth Tribe.” Ie, the vast majority of Jews are converts to Judaism. Some Jews are descendants of Esau/Edom (about 125 BC), who was the brother of Jacob/Israel. Esau sold his birthright and became the enemy of his brother down through the ages. Some are Khazars, a Turko-Mongol tribe who converted to Judaism around 800-900 AD. Some became Jews during the time of Esther the queen. Some converted to Judaism during the Babylonian captivity.
The current Israeli regime are Zionists. They are not descendants of the patriarchs of the Bible. Their political machine is suspect. However, that does not cancel out the reality that 15% of Jews are among “God’s Chosen People.” but this 15% are from only two tribes, Judah and Benjamin. There are ten other tribes, the lost sheep of the House of Israel. Christ said, “I am not sent, but to the lost sheep of the House of Israel”–the ten tribes. I know, all this can be very confusing, but it is all there in black and white, in the history books and encyclopedias.
If all this I’m saying is untrue, then why did Christ rebuke the Pharisee Jews so harshly? “Ye are of you father the devil.” And again Christ called out the Jews as being the “synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2: 9 and 3: 9). Christians pride themselves as those who believe every word of the Bible. Really? Now we can stick our heads in the sand, or we can dig deep to build our house upon the rock. I we seek diligently, we will find the truth. I believe that your questions are doing just that. Carl, we are on the greatest treasure hunt of all time. Happy digging…kwh
So Jews no longer exist in the OT sense as world history , evolution of God’s Plan through Jews no longer exist.? Are Christians His New Jerusalem which was the Puritans felt they were creating in 1620-40’s in Massachusetts Bay Colony ? Jewsevaporated as gears in the Divine Engine. Is the state of Israel a fulfillment of God’s promise to them ? Are they no longer the guardians of that first and special revelation the OT or have they been replaced ? They still keep Covenant with Torah and rites and traditions. What place do they have in our times ? None ?
Carl, these are cogent questions.
I will limit my response to facts from history and the holy scriptures. Most theologians do not believe nor teach these things in their seminaries. Because of this, little light has been shed in the past. Trying to understand anything about the Jews is like untangling a skein of yarn. To answer your questions, we must clarify just what the word “Jew” means. It seems that you are referencing the Hebrew patriarchs as Jews, which they are not. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob/Israel were never called Jews in the Bible. Jacob had a son named Judah, and it is through him much later that his offspring began to be called “Jews” (II Kings 16: 6, c. 740 B.C.)..
However, to gain understanding that will answer your questions, four major concepts must first be clarified.
First, many peoples down through history have converted to Judaism. About 85% of Jews today do not descend from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel, according to Arthur Koestler in his book The Thirteenth Tribe. That may be a jarring statement for some, but it is true. Many Jews today claim that they descend from the Hebrew patriarchs, but the vast majority of Jews today are descendants of ancestors who converted to Judaism. History confirms this. The whole nation of Khazaria, a Turko-Mongol tribe during the Middle Ages, converted en masse. Furthermore, the Edomites, the offspring of Esau, the twin brother of Jacob, were also converted to Judaism in 125 B.C. under the Judean king John Hyrcanus (“Edom,” Wikipedia). The Jewish Ency. backs this up saying that “Esau is in modern Jewry.” The man Esau in the Bible hated his brother Jacob and terrorized him throughout their lives. Consequently, Yahweh declared, “I loved Jacob, and I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste” (Mal. 1: 2-3; Ezk. 35: 1-15). I love everyone and understand in part their place in the plan. Yahweh did say that He hated Esau. Moreover, the whole book of Obadiah speaks of the complete destruction of Esau and his descendants. We read of this destruction during the time of the end in Revelation 18.
Esau’s descendants converted to Judaism in 125 B.C. By the time Christ appeared on the scene, they had taken over the power positions of high priest and headed the major religious factions, the Pharisees and Sadducees. Even Herod the king was Idumean or Edomite. Understanding this major point explains why Christ exposed them for masquerading around as the true offspring of Judah. Christ told the Pharisees, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do…He that is of God hears God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God” (John 8: 44, 47). Christ later references these who “say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2: 9; 3: 9). I will let you connect the dots.
When we see in Bible prophecy that Esau always wanted the blessing and birthright back from his brother Jacob/Israel, things begin to clear up.
Second, the true Jews are the offspring of Judah and Benjamin (with some Levites). The apostle Paul was a true Jew of the tribe of Benjamin. Because they lived in Judea, they were called Jews–Judeans.
Descendants of Judah and Benjamin are definitely in the earth today. Of the 144,000 servants that the angels sealed in Revelation 7, 12,000 were of Judah, and 12,000 were of Benjamin, and 12,000 of Levi.
Third, Judaism of today is not the religion that Moses introduced to the twelve tribes of Israel. Judaism today is based on the Talmud. The Talmud is “the collection of Jewish law and tradition consisting of the Mishnah and the Gemara and being either the edition produced in Palestine a.d. c400 or the larger, more important one produced in Babylonia a.d. c500” (“Talmud,” Dictionary.com). The Talmud contains some very virulent anti-Christian rhetoric, vehemently denying our Savior. Many of its claims are lurid, and I will not quote them here. You need to do your own research; you will be shocked and dismayed. Most of the tenets of Judaism is based on the Talmud and not the Old Testament of the Bible. Think about Christ and the moneychangers.
Fourth, the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel are in the earth today, and they are not Jews. They are Israelites, descendants of the ten tribes of Israel that made up the Kingdom of Israel when the twelve tribes broke into two separate kingdoms (I Kings 12). Christ said that “I am not sent but to the lost sheep of the House of Israel” (Matt. 15: 24). Paul said that they were “serving God day and night” (Acts 26: 7). The book of James is written “to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad” (1: 1).
They are lost as to who they are in God, but God has a plan to restore them to Himself, as in the parable of the dry bones (Ezk. 37: 11). This is the “whole house of Israel” not just the two tribes of the Jews. The same goes for the future joining of the House of Israel and the House of Judah in the two sticks (Ezk. 37: 16-28). Here we see that the Jews of the House of Judah are not the Israelites of the ten-tribed House of Israel.
Moreover, going back to Revelation 7, we see that the tribes that are sealed in the future include the “lost sheep of the House of Israel.”
Finally, Jews do have a prominent role to play historically for the end time. But they are not the only players. The ten tribes of Israel do, too. Knowing that they are not the same is important to understand God’s plan. Unravelling this puzzle called Jewry is a great step in understanding, peace and love. Kenneth Wayne Hancock
Thanks for taking the time to present the lesson. I understand Jews not same as Biblical Israelites. So God’s use of them in revelation and history ended 2,000 years ago with appearance of Christ and now God reveals through New Covenant Christian Gentiles ? Doesn’t entire human race used in God’s Plan ? Early Christians a movement within Judaism and Paul calls them Jews but also saints in Christ as Gentiles also saints in Christ. Today’s Israel of non descending Jews not an OT extension or avenue of God’s actions as not Israelites? The are not “His chosen”? They certainly think so with geographic claims.
Our pastor relates that the elect are not the ones going to heaven but the elect are His chosen to give testimony to Christ and reveal and make known God’s grace .
