LAZINESS & King Solomon

Yes King Solomon was also adamantly against LAZY people and today he would have been appalled at the USA’s welfare system! Here are some quotes directly from Proverbs.

“Lazy people should learn a lesson from the way ants live. They have no leader, chief, or ruler, but store up their food during the summer, getting ready for the winter. How long is a lazy man going to lie around? When is he going to get up? ‘I’ll just take a short nap,’ he says; ‘I’ll fold my hands and rest a while.’ But while he sleeps, poverty will attack him like an armed robber.” (Proverbs 6: 6-11)

“Being lazy will make your poor, but hard work will make you rich.” (Proverbs 10:4)

“A sensible person gathers the crops when they are ready; it is a disgrace to sleep through the time of harvest.” (Proverbs 10:5)

“Never get a lazy person to do something for you; he will be as irritating as vinegar on your teeth or smoke in your eyes.” (Proverbs 10:26)

“Lazy people will never have money, but aggressive people will get rich.” (Proverbs 11:16)

So KING SOLOMON would have been pleased with DONALD TRUMP! Also he would have had no problems with my ancestors the Templars in their aggressive approach to wealth that produced the first financial and capitalistic system in Europe.

“Hard work will give you power; being lazy will make you a slave.” (Proverbs 12:24)

“If you are lazy, you will never get what you are after, but if you work hard, you will get a fortune.” (Proverbs 12:27)

“No matter how much a lazy person may want something, he will NEVER (my emphasis) get it.” (Proverbs 13:4)

STUPIDITY & King Solomon

One of things I have HATED about myself and others is STUPIDITY! I come down HARD on myself for STUPIDITY!

Well KING SOLOMON felt the same way! Here is what he wrote in THE BOOK OF PROVERBS:

“Stupidity is like a loud, ignorant, shameless woman. She sits at the door of her house or on a seat in the highest part of town, and calls out to people passing by, who are minding their own business: ‘Come in, ignorant people!’ To the foolish she says, ‘Stolen water is sweeter. Stolen bread tastes better.’ Her victims do not know that the people die who go to her house, that those who have already entered are now deep in the world of the dead.” (Proverbs 9: 13-18)

“Intelligent people talk sense, but stupid people need to be PUNISHED (my emphasis) (Proverbs 10:13)

“A good person’s words will benefit many people, but you can kill yourself with stupidity.” (Proverbs 10:21)

“If you are intelligent, you will be praised; if you are stupid, people will look down on you.” (Proverbs 12:8)

“Stupid people always think they are right. Wise people listen to advice.” (Proverbs 12:13)

“Smart people keep quiet about what they know, but stupid people advertise their ignorance.” (Proverbs 12:23)

Do you THUNK as my friend Stephen says that KING SOLOMON hated STUPIDITY?

So we are in GREAT WEALTHY WISE company who hate STUPIDITY!

Why Solomon Wrote Proverbs

Today we begin to study THE BOOK OF PROVERBS, which Old Testament scholars attribute to only ONE person – KING SOLOMON contrary to what we have previously been reading about as KING SOLOMON being an ARCHETYPE instead of a REAL person.

First SOLOMON discusses the value of PROVERBS to the reader:

“Here are the proverbs that will help you recognize wisdom and good advice, and understand sayings with deep meaning. They can teach you how to live intelligently and how to be honest, just, and fair. They can make an inexperienced person clever and teach young people how to be resourceful. These proverbs can even add to the knowledge of the wise and give guidance to the educated, so that they can understand the hidden meanings of proverbs and the problems that the wise raise.” (Proverbs 1: 2-6)

Now would that description of PROVERBS by the RICHEST man EVER not want you and my fellow Templars to read on?

King Solomon’s Builders

As promised today I am going to share what I personally think is FAR FETCHED that Lon Dequette shares in his FREE e-book – The Key to Solomon’s Key.

Lon believes that a LEGION of what you and I would call SPIRITS were brought under the control of Solomon to build The Temple and Palace! 70,000 of them!

Lon even shares how Solomon did it and if you are STUPID enough to try it you could too!

Why do I say this is STUPID and DANGEROUS as even Lon warns?

Because I have in the past, when I was heavily involved in the Christian CHARISMATIC Movement through my Episcopal church, St. Peter’s, in my hometown of Jacksonville FL, been involved in numerous EXORCISMS and witness what these SPIRITS can do! They are way stronger than I am and even several of us combined and “Big Jim” was NO slouch! I have seen them speak through my former girlfriend, Shirley, and heard the TERRIFYING SCREECHING voice that Lon says is characteristic of one of the leading SPIRITS.

So NO THANK YOU! Been there seen and done EXORCISMS! These SPIRITS, which according to Lon number over 70, are DANGEROUS to associate with! In fact after reading the characteristics of about 15 of them I said: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

So you are forewarned of the FOLLY of playing with these SPIRITS, who could have possibly been responsible for building The Temple and King Solomon’s Palace under the guidance of King Solomon or an ARCHETYPE.

Next post we will begin to share the WISDOM directly from THE BOOK OF PROVERBS that for me a REAL King Solomon gave us to live by.

Was King Solomon An Archetype?

If you will remember in the previous post Biblical Old Testament researcher and archaeologist Lon Dequette, author of The Key to Solomon’s Key, stated that Solomon was probably NOT a real person but an ARCHETYPE. Again you can get this ebook FREE on the Net like I did.

Also Lon thinks that he knows why the Roman Catholic Church gave such amazing latitude to my ancestors THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR. Normally a knighthood like THE TEMPLARS would have still been under the thumb of the Roman Catholic Church and the Pope.

NOT THE TEMPLARS! They were given a blank check by the Pope and Church for close to 200 YEARS! They used this time and opportunity to amass the GREATEST wealth seen since the time of King Solomon! They built the mega churches like Chartres where I and others believe they hid THE ARK OF THE COVENANT. They control the seas with their ships. They created CAPITALISM as we know it today. They were the money lenders to kings and The Church.

So what allowed them to do this?

Lon believes that when the NINE knights came to Jerusalem (that would become THE TEMPLARS) they discovered something that would shake the Roman Catholic Church, Judaism and even the Moslems empires up leading to chaos and possible demise of all three!

Lon believes that they found that the patriarchs of the Old Testaments were NOT real people like Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Moses, King David and King Solomon to name a few! They were only ARCHETYPES! If you don’t know what an ARCHETYPE is Google it!

I reserve my judgement on his findings which are based on the FACT that NO archaeological items have been found that would have been used by these patriarchs!

Next post I will tell you how Lon believes someone or ARCHETYPE could have built King Solomon’s Temple and Palace.

The Trillionaire Part 18

It is time to move on from my ancestors, THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR, saga with THE ARK OF THE COVENANT and study about THE TRILLIONAIRE, King Solomon. We have been learning of the WEALTH King Solomon had bestowed upon him by GOD. We have learned about the costs in today’s US dollars to build the Temple and King Solomon’s palatial compound pictured above.

As you will remember GOD told Solomon in a dream that he would be the RICHEST man then and FOREVER! GOD ALWAYS keeps a promise! There is NEVER been a TRILLIONAIRE since Solomon and I do not see one on the current horizon! If you took the COMBINED wealth of the five wealthiest people on earth, you would hardly get $500,000,000!

So what can you and I learn from Solomon, who also GOD made the WISEST person on earth?

Here is what I learned from Solomon’s OWN writings in the Book of PROVERBS, which Biblical scholars have PROVED is the only book written SOLELY by King Solomon.

Solomon wanted to first show us the VALUE of PROVERBS and he shares this introduction:

“Here are the proverbs that will help you recognize wisdom and good advice, and understand sayings with deep meaning. They can teach you how to live intelligently and how to be honest, just, and fair. They can make an inexperienced person clever and teach young people how to be resourceful. These proverbs can even add to the knowledge of the wise and give guidance to the educated, so that they can understand the hidden meanings of proverbs and the problems that the wise raise.” (Proverbs 1: 2-6)

I could not say it any better! More in next post.

The Trillionaire Part 17

Here is more from Chapter 2 of my forthcoming 2015 book The Trillionaire & The Knights Templar:

“Now we are going to boggle your mind even further regarding interior items in Solomon’s palace. He ordered 200 large shields overlaid each with 15 POUNDS OF GOLD and another 300 smaller ones each with 4 POUNDS of gold per shield that were placed in the Hall of the Forest of Lebanon. With gold at $1260 per once today June 10, 2014 that would be a total of $45,360,000 just for the 200 larger shields and then you add the 300 smaller ones at $18,144,000 for a total of a staggering $63,504,000!

“The throne itself was awe inspiring for anyone approaching King Solomon. Part of it was covered with ivory and the rest covered with the finest gold. The throne had six steps leading up to it with a figure of a lion at each step and at the back of the throne was the figure of a bull’s head and besides each of the armrest was the figure of a lion. As it says in 1 Kings there had never been a throne like it.”

The Trillionaire Part 16

Not only did King Solomon build a wonder of the world temple for God but he also built a palace compound never seen before in history and even today this compound would be mind boggling. You can learn about Solomon’s Palace by reading 1 Kings Chapters 7 through 8. Here is more from my forthcoming 2015 book The Trillionaire & The Knights Templar:

“It took 13 years to complete it. The Hall of the Forest of Lebanon was 150 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high. It had three rows of cedar pillars 15 in each row with cedar beams resting on them. The ceiling was cedar and extended over storerooms, which were supported by the pillars. The Hall of Columns was 75 feet long and 45 feet wide with a covered porch supported by columns. The Throne Room had cedar panels from the floor to the rafters. Solomon’s own quarters were built like these buildings and so were the ones for his wife, who was the daughter of the king of Egypt.

“All these buildings were also constructed of the fine stones used in the temple and went from the foundations to the eaves. Some of these fine cut stones were 12 feet long and others were 15 feet long. On top of these massive stones were other stones and cedar beams. The palace court, the inner court of the temple and the entrance room of the temple had walls with one layer of cedar beams for every three layers of cut stones.”

The Trillionaire Part 15

Here is the concluding information about the Temple King Solomon built from my forthcoming 2015 book The Trillionaire & The Knights Templar.

“Other furnishings in the temple were made of gold including: the altar, the table where the bread was offered to God, the ten lamp stands that stood in front of the Most Holy Place, the flowers, lamps, tongs, cups, lamp snuffers, bowls, dishes for incense and pans for carrying the live coals. Even the hinges for doors of the Most Holy Place and the outer doors of the temple were made of gold. The storeroom of the temple also contained all the gold, silver and other precious items that had been dedicated to the Lord by Solomon’s father, David.

“The entire project of building the temple took 7 YEARS. How many building projects today require 7 years of time? Of course we do have more modern building techniques and equipment but 7 years is still a long time!”

If you doubt what I have written is true then just read 1 Kings Chapters 5 and 6 as what I have written has been taken directly from the Old Testament (Good News Bible).

So as you have been reading this you see that the Temple King Solomon built in honor of his COMMITTMENT to GOD blows away all the MEGA churches of today!

The Trillionaire Part 14

Continuing from where we left off in my new book The Trillionaire & The Knights Templar coming out in 2015, here is more about the Temple King Solomon was building for God.

“The interior was where the most attention and money was spent. The inside walls were covered with cedar panels from floor to ceiling and the floor made of pine. Both the room of the Most Holy Place and another in front of it were also were covered with cedar in order to cover the stones of the buildings. These cedar panels today would be very expensive to use in this large an area.

“In the rear of the temple was where the cherished Ark of the Covenant was kept. This inner room was 30 feet long, 30 feet wide and 30 feet high ALL COVERED WITH PURE GOLD! At the current June 10, 2014 price, an ounce of gold set at $1260 you can see that this room today would be almost prohibitive in costs to build! The altar in the room was also cedar panels.
Inside the temple was covered with gold and gold chains were placed across the entrance of the Most Holy Place, which was also covered in gold. Two winged creatures made of olive wood measuring 15 feet in height were placed in the Most Holy Place. All the flooring of this room was covered in gold. The double door leading into the Most Holy Place was made of olive wood and along with the winged creature statues were also covered with gold. The inner court was built in front of the temple, enclosed with walls which had one layer of cedar beams for every three layers of stone.

“Solomon sent for Huram of Tyre who was the Number 1 bronze craftsman, who had been mentored by his father. The first project for Huram was two bronze columns that were placed at the entrance to the temple. Each column was 27 feet tall and 18 feet in circumference. On top was a bronze capital 71/2 feet tall. The top of each column was decorated with a design of interwoven chains and two rows of bronze pomegranates.

“Next Huram was commissioned to make a bronze tank 71/2 feet deep, 15 feet in diameter and 45 feet in circumference. Around the outer edge of the rim were two rows of bronze gourds. This tank rested on the back of twelve bronze bulls and could hold 10,000 gallons.

“Huram also made ten bronze carts each 6 feet long, 6 feet wide and 41/2 feet high. Each cart had four bronze wheels 25 inches high. Each cart also had a bronze basin that could hold 200 gallons. Five of these carts were placed on the south side of temple and the other five on the north side. The tank was placed at the southwest corner.”
