Since the First Sin of the First Adam, the EVIL SIDE or Yetzer Hara from the forbidden Tree of Knowledge of GOOD & EVIL entered the Psyche/Conscience of every Human Being and corrupted the Human Nature. It then became the Reality Challenge of every Human Being to expel this EVIL from WITHIN him/her; or to be set free from the Slavery of this EVIL MASTER (John 8:31-32).

The BRIDE OF CHRIST MINISTRY OF LIFE
The 1969 Moon Landing, making Neil Armstrong the first man to set foot on the moon, is a great achievement of Mankind that was started by the famous US President John F. Kennedy. His famous "Moon Speech" at the US Congress in 1961 triggered the project. President Kennedy reiterated his "Moon Mission Speech" in 1962 at the Rice University. This Moon Speech was so inspiring then, and even now, even to every True Christian and Jew, and to the whole world (Physically, Scientifically, and Spiritually).
We MUST successfully overcome YETZER HARA because this divisive, greedy, selfish, and deadly nature is the ultimate Anti-God and Anti-Christ!
It is the very ROOT-CAUSE of all WARS, CONFLICTS, DIVISIONS, SUFFERINGS, DECAY, DESTRUCTIONS, AND DEATHS here on Earth and the Whole Universe! These include all IMMORALITY, CORRUPTIONS, POVERTY, CRIMES, TERRORISM, ACCIDENTS, and the non-stop DECEPTIONS in Religions, Businesses, Sports & Entertainment, and Politics. This Evil Inclination or Yetzer Hara is also the cause of the decay and corruption of the entire created Universes!
For we know that the WHOLE CREATION (The WHOLE UNIVERSE) groans and travails in pain together until now. (Rom 8:22 HNV)
- Jesus said to those...who believed on Him, IF YOU CONTINUE in My [Kabbalistic] WORD, You are My Disciples indeed. And YOU shall KNOW the TRUTH, and the [MESSIANIC KABBALAH] TRUTH shall make you FREE. (Joh 8:31-32 MKJV)
This Reality Challenge of purifying ourselves of the Yetzer Hara is analogous to the endeavor of the NASA Space Project, which really started with the going to the Moon and back to Earth.

MOON LANDING AND YOUR SALVATION: What is the Connection?
The success of the 1969 moon landing is very inspiring to mankind and it opened God's glory above the heavens (Psalms 8:1).
- ...O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy Name in all the Earth! who hast set thy Glory above the Heavens. (Psa 8:1 KJV)
God have inspired US President Kennedy and the American people to achieve such great success, for the time has come for mankind to focus on the heavenly things above, not only on things below. God blessed America with such prosperity, technology, talents and inspired leadership to achieve this great undertaking.
LET'S GET PERSONAL
Now, let's get the inspiration and lessons learned from the Apollo Moon project down to our personal and individual level, to help each one of us apply the noble principles of success to achieve our human potential as God purposed it to be.
July 16, 1969. Liftoff of the Apollo 11 Lunar Landing Mission. The whole world stood and watched in amazement and breathtaking anticipation of the moon landing. I was then a budding boy in a far flung province of Masbate, the Philippines. I noticed that many people in our neighborhood and in our school were hooked to the radio following the historical event step-by-step. At that time, I don't care and I don't fully understand what was going on.
"THAT'S ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND"
"THAT'S ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND"
Four days later after the Apollo rocket was launched, on July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong, the commander of the Apollo 11 lunar mission, became the first Man to set foot on the Moon. Mr. Neil Armstrong then spoke the famous words, "That's one small step for Man, one giant leap for Mankind"– inadvertently omitting the "a" before "Man" and slightly changing the meaning.
The Apollo Space Program fulfilled Psalms 8:1 and President John F. Kennedy's dream to land a Man on the Moon before the end of the 1960s — and did it just 5 months and 10 days before the end of the decade.

PRESIDENT KENNEDY'S INSPIRING "MOON SPEECH"
The 1969 Moon Landing, making Neil Armstrong the first Man to set foot on the Moon, is a great achievement of Mankind that was started by the famous US President John F. Kennedy. His famous "Moon Speech" at the US Congress in 1961 triggered the project. President Kennedy reiterated his "Moon Mission Speech"
in 1962 at the Rice University. This Moon Speech was so inspiring then, and even now, even to every True Christian and Jew, and to the whole world (physically, scientifically, and spiritually).
Here is that inspiring Moon Speech of President Kennedy:
"But why, some say the moon.
Why choose this as our goal?
Why choose this as our goal?
And they may will ask, "why climb the highest mountain?
Why 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic?…
We choose to go the moon!
We choose to go the moon!
We choose to go the moon (audience clapping)…
We choose to go the moon!…
Not because it is easy, but because it is hard.
Because that goal will serve to organize our nation's best,
of its energies and skills.
Because that challenge is one we are willing to accept.
One we are not willing to postpone.
And one we intend to win."

NOW, IT'S HIGH-TIME FOR ALL OF US TO THINK "OUTER SPACE!"
- If then you were raised with Christ, SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God. BE MINDFUL OF THINGS ABOVE, not on things on the Earth. (Col 3:1-2 MKJV)
It is now high-time for all of us to be serious about our individual salvation, which means we have to think and focus more on outer space (Universe), not just here on Earth (Colossians 3:1-2).
President Kennedy then was envisioning Heavenly Things -- we call today "Outer Space." Bringing Man to the Moon and back to Earth is almost impossible to think about at that time. There were so many odds and difficulties. This was a challenge nobody had done before. It was a venture to the unknown! As President Kennedy said, it is hard. To an ordinary person or President, they will not even think about it. But President Kennedy is a very positive person, full of faith in that mission; to him hardship is a positive challenge!
DO YOU ACCEPT THIS GREATEST REALITY CHALLENGE OF CONQUERING THE UNIVERSE? Or Do You Have Other Interests And Priorities in Your Life?
If you do not accept the Challenge, or if you do not strive to overcome, then, you will not exist for so long. This is because this present world is to be destroyed and replaced by the coming New World and Universes (Isaiah 65:17, 2Peter 3:12-13, Revelation 21:1).
Every human being who don't like, or who failed in this Greatest Challenge, will not be written in the Book of Life. This means that they will be burned to ashes and completely destroyed (both Soul and Body) in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 20:15, Hebrews 2:3)!
In other words, don't waste your mind, energy, and resources to the vain things of this world, no matter how much fun, promotion, acclaim, or attractions they may seem to offer you! These include your Church & Religious Activities, Business & Careers, Political Ambitions & Power, Money & Wealth, Celebrity & Top-Notch Status, etc. (1Corinthians 15:19). All of these are nothing and useless to God if you don't overcome and eliminate the Evil Inclination from yourself!
Instead, focus and spend your resources for the enhancement and advancement of God's WILL AND PURPOSE -- that of building God's People to become the 3rd Temple; and to preach His True Gospel of Messianic Kabbalah Wisdom to the whole world (Matthew 24:14).
ONLY THE SUCCESSFUL OVERCOMERS OF YETZER HARA ARE ALLOWED TO DWELL IN THE NEW HEAVENS & THE NEW EARTH!
ONLY THE SUCCESSFUL OVERCOMERS OF YETZER HARA will be allowed by God the Father to dwell and inhabit the coming New World and Universes (Isaiah 65:17, Psalms 15:1-5, 2Peter 3:12-13, Revelation 21:1).
If you accept this greatest Universe Challenge, you have God the Father and Jesus Christ on your side to support you. Your Rocket Engine and Energy are provided by the Holy Spirit. The functioning instrumentation and other vital equipment are your personal righteous desires, passions, and submission to the WILL OF GOD THE FATHER. With ALL THESE in place, you are made prepared and ready to lift-off and meet the returning Christ in the air (1Thessalonians 4:16-17).
EARTHLY FORCES MUST BE OVERCOME! Why Overcome the Evil Inclination (Selfish EGO Of Human Nature)?If you do not accept the Challenge, or if you do not strive to overcome, then, you will not exist for so long. This is because this present world is to be destroyed and replaced by the coming New World and Universes (Isaiah 65:17, 2Peter 3:12-13, Revelation 21:1).

- This is the second death. Whosoever was not found written in the BOOK OF LIFE was cast into the Lake of Fire. (Rev 20:14-15 KJV)
- How shall we escape, if we neglect so GREAT SALVATION... (Heb 2:3 KJV)

- For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven...and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (1Th 4:16 KJV)
- Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (1Th 4:17 KJV)
For man to successfully go the Moon and beyond, many earthly forces have to be overcome. And these include not only the earthly physical forces, such as, gravity, but of even more importance is the overcoming of the Dark Forces and rebellious spirit of our individual fallen and carnal human nature (Romans 8:7-8).
It is the very ROOT-CAUSE of all WARS, CONFLICTS, DIVISIONS, SUFFERINGS, DECAY, DESTRUCTIONS, AND DEATHS here on Earth and the Whole Universe!

This Evil Inclination or Yetzer Hara is also the cause of the decay and corruption of the entire created Universes!
- The CREATION waits with eager expectation for the Children of God to be revealed. (Rom 8:19 HNV)
- For the Creation was subjected to vanity... in hope that the Creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the Glory of the Children of God. (Rom 8:20-21 HNV)
