Rediscovering The 7 Laws of The Everlasting Agreement

What if the modern spiritual and religious frameworks we rely on today have been decoupled from their original, foundational truths?

Throughout human history, various ancient texts and moral traditions have pointed toward a singular, unchanging standard of living; an enduring pact between humanity and The Eternal Creator, (Aheeyeh). In his foundational book, The Land of Meat and Honey, Hebrew scholar and author Dr. Shmuel Asher explores this Original Law, (1st Law), in his work. Driven by a lineage of Torah scholarship rooted in the original language, customs, and culture of the ancient Near East, Dr. Asher works to strip away centuries of dogmatic scribal changes to reveal a simpler, life-giving moral imperative.

To fully appreciate the scope of this ancient blueprint, we must first understand its foundational philosophy. Below, Dr. Asher provides an exclusive, in-depth breakdown of what the Everlasting Agreement truly means, followed by the 7 individual laws.

Core Elements of The Everlasting Agreement

"It has recently come to my attention more and more that many people who have finally come to the original Torah, 1st Law understanding of the Everlasting Agreement, even after reading its foundational work are still not grasping its full meaning, or application. (It is NOT ONLY about a diet change! - That point I cannot stress enough.)

The entire key to living within the Eternal Creator's 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement is 100% about acknowledging our soul's part in leaving the Eternal Father's system in the first place. (Which was done by us believing the lies and following the lead of our fallen, older brother souls/aka – Malakim/angels, and following their modified path of destruction which was, and remains in opposition to the Eternal Creator’s original path for all souls).

This is NOT about “religion”; all of man's religions have been created, false narratives to control and eventually capture all souls in their "Net" by somehow, in, or very near the end, separating people physically. (First by DNA manipulations, or by passively forced actions, or both). No man-made religion has ever had anything to do with expanding our spiritual walk or closeness to the true Creator, much less facilitating and forging a path towards “Teshuvah” Which is the – Return of souls to The Eternal Creator, as He has clearly asked for our return through His many Hebrew prophets.

So then, the 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement is not about religion, or only a diet lifestyle, it’s about LOVE & OBEDIENCE! The reason I used most of the Hebrew prophets words in my first and most important book – The Land of Meat & Honey – is because all of them have that same message, which is the request for all souls to – RETURN! - AKA - TESHUVAH.

The Father would NOT be messaging His prophets to “ask and advise” His many souls/children, to RETURN, if those souls had not previously LEFT! (So, as I said when I began, this is NOT about a new diet. The “diet” is merely the first step back (to returning to Him). It is the outward proof of repentance from the first fall).

In too many edited texts we see the words changed from ancient Hebrew thought to Western Greekized thought. They say - Refrain from things "unclean" or things sacrificed to "idols - AND blood?" These words in only these specific areas throughout the Bible, (which are slightly different in the Tanak than the Christian New Testament), but always crafted for the same reason; so that the religious ruling class could teach the Original Law understanding in a different way.

Their Torah revisions force a new misunderstanding; that it's OK to enslave, torture, murder and consume innocent sentient beings as long as they were not sacrificed to certain other "pagan" gods... Which is Fully untrue, and totally against the Creator's original design and continued admonishments. (Unless we are to believe that Adam, Eve and all the animals were tailgating with a BBQ in the garden and eating each other. Of course, some version of that eventually occurred which is why as the Hebrew Genesis states quite clearly, they had their light covered with skin; and thus, why we are all here now; (Light=Light Bodies. Covered with Skin = Human Flesh [not Animal Flesh Skin]).

In addition to making "Teshuvah" (= Returning to His original law), which outwardly is seen by our diet and expanded merciful lifestyle of NOT utilizing any products that have been stolen from those enslaved, (murdered animals); which was first seen on Mt. Horeb when the Angel of the Eternal One's first words to Moshe were - "Moshe, remove your sandals, this is Holy ground..."; (as in those days most footwear were made from animal hide as they are today).

Those who live this Original Law path are now called the “Yehshurim” - aka, the “Righteous”, who also Return to the original 4-Renewal Memorials, annually which are locked in on the corrected Creator's Calendar, as provided to Enoch.

Remaining in that diet, lifestyle, calendar and set-apart days, (which I agree is difficult for some people), is the proof to the Eternal Father that you are serious about Teshuvah-Returning; because in these times doing so for most people will be a true and ongoing sacrifice in its own rite.

  The second main influence of the diet change has all to do with a physical and spiritual cleansing over a specific period of time for each individual. We actually first see this cleansing period more obviously as the Hebrews and some Egyptians were taken out of Egypt and into the wilderness, (although zero to no "religious scholars" have ever once seen that within those pages because they never even knew that the Original 1st law existed).

All of this is detailed in my book, The Land of Meat & Honey, and my re-translation of the four Essene gospel books.

I have watched for over 35 yrs, teaching this with thousands of students worldwide, (who have all reported back to me many times throughout their new walk); that making this life change with sincerity and humility towards the ONE we left, has given almost 100% of them a truly positive and expanding spiritual experience and growing awareness, (that they all say they never had before throughout their previous life-long religious journey).

Most people have described to me a growing deepening in their empathy towards all life, also a greater ability and awareness of the bigger picture, and greater ability to see the plans of the evil ones, as they unfold. Others have told me about amazing physical, psychological, and or, emotional healing that a lifetime of Pharma drugs, (other) religions or (pre-Teshuva) prayers have never changed.

Additionally, and most importantly, they all say they feel a very palpable new, direct connection to the Eternal One that they never knew before; (through any of the world’s religions which they had previously been entrenched).

Moreover, all of those things and more are openly expressed by the Hebrew prophets; while The majority of mankind, (outside of the Orthodox Shelanite cabal), however, have not known their true meaning.

WHY? Because, as also hypothesized in my Soul Revolution book, everything has always been about the temporary controllers of this world manipulating HIS Freewill system. And ultimately to the end days working to separate as many souls as possible from the Eternal Father, which of course for the majority of souls through time will not happen.

Everything that ever was, or will be, has been, and will always be to the very end, (for them); about diverting souls in the hopes of winning their war against the Eternal Father. While at the same time evil men, (via religion), want to capture minds and hearts as part of the greater system to contaminate and control souls/people and all animals for their own earthly gain.

The true understanding and the pure assimilation of the 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement removes the control-ability from religion, along with removing the parasitic ability from the men who run religions; (governments, corporations, etc). More importantly, from the unseen controllers sitting above them all, because the 1st law is only about you and the restoration of your direct-connection back to the ONE who made you, (by the knowledge of this path, by your own FREE WILL CHOICE and pure obedience to Return to His Original Law). After that, all of His promised protections and provisions apply to only you - The Yehshurim. (This is all too simple for most people who remain stuck in religion to believe, or achieve).

Another main point I will advise on is, check the ego! The ego was somehow installed into this creation, (and although it loves to lie and insist it is in control), it is not. Your soul is in control - only AFTER you fully remove all the flesh and blood from your lips and cells. So, if your soul is in control, why do we have to learn and actively work to subdue the ego?

Well, like any parasite that requires some type of anti-parasitic drug to subdue it, we have the Living-Soul to fend off the ego. However, as I explain in my Land of Meat & Honey book, the souls of most people have been “fire-walled” by the blood of the innocents that they consent to allowing past their lips, daily. Coupled with their direct or tacit participation in those now industrialized systems of animal and human destruction – murder! (Breaking the 1st law of life! AKA - The Everlasting Agreement).

The removal of their blood from your lips, coupled with the knowledge of the 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement and driven by a contrite and humbled countenance, (in repentance for so many years of aiding their enslavement and murder); being convinced that this Return path is required to heal that long, broken relationship, are the main proofs to HIM, and to you, that you are Returned.

Short of that (without Teshuva and only changing your diet), a person is just a Vegan or Vegetarian who is not re-connected to the Father. Nor will they be receivers of all the promises of protections and provisions, (when they are truly needed in these last days). And believe me, as of after 2020 and beyond, (as Jacob's trouble heats up), you don’t want to be found on the wrong side of this fence.

A major tenet of the Torah and it's full understanding, was that the Torah, (aka "Instructions"), is a fence with no gate around you. We have to actively jump and throw ourselves over it, to get back inside with Him, (and some even choose to leave that same way). The fence is high so that He knows, (and we know), without question, what our Will and Intention is going IN-or Leaving again.

If you are IN now, then work harder to get close to the center and away from the fence. If you are not IN yet, well, all I can assure you is that time is exceedingly short now. And if you are on the fence, (on the way out), my personal opinion is that it would be better to die inside the fence, than to jump back over into Egypt.

In other news - A wise teacher once said something like, “you cannot say you love your Father in heaven, and hate your brother”.

Believe me, I am not casting any first or last stones here, (I have been guilty of this myself on many occasions of not separating the actions of the man, from the man). It has now, (for at least the fourth time been inadvertently brought to my attention), that some people, (after coming into His Everlasting Agreement), become and remain aggressively negative towards those they judge as living and working “outside” of His agreement.

THIS attitude is a remnant of the false religions! It must be purged. Because, until that day, (when the sky rolls back like a scroll and all Heaven breaks loos on this world, to destroy all those who have been destroying), it is NOT up to any individual person inside that fence to use their soul's great power of projection, harshly against those still remaining outside.

YOU do NOT know who the Father has coming at the last minute. The Christians have a great saying I have heard used many times - Hate the sin, not the man. Yes, this is a harsh fallen world, but everything will be played out as the Eternal One is allowing it to happen. Thus, each person's soul-projected negativity about it, is technically working against the Will of the Eternal Creator who has already devised the entire story and all of it's inner workings, for good.

I realize that may be difficult for many to feel at ease with, but, none of you are HIM.

As previously mentioned, I now warn that the Eternal’s Everlasting Agreement is NOT a single ingredient recipe, and it is surely NOT about negative activism! Again, I have heard the Christians saying many times, “don’t hate the sinner, hate the sin”. And although that is actually a decent premise, (the main issue with it being applied correctly), and more importantly, consistently is the ego driven imagination of man. (In my mind there is a very thin line between hating the action and hating the actor).

The ego is supremely adept at blurring that already impossibly thin line in most people, mainly because they are not consistently vigilant at subduing their ego yet. Although it sounds sappy, I have stated many times throughout my work, that, if the Eternal Father's soul is the Macro-soul, (and our souls are the Micro-soul portions given to us from His Creative Macro-Soul); and if He is pure love and merciful judgement, then by default our souls MUST also be pure love; (or, at least they were when they were new, and less contaminated).

So, what is the main culprit in a lifetime, (within this Reformatted Creation-space that acts against the soul to damage it), and what works tirelessly to quell that love? – Obviously, the ego, coupled with and aided by the blood of innocents within people, working as the firewall against their souls.

The fallen ego in us, works against us from the inside. While the ego in others who work for the evil systems, influence us again, (from the outside if you let them). THAT is why they are here among us, that is their main job and purpose. The Buddhists have that understanding of the ego locked down, however, they also lock themselves away from all other ego’s to practice their path while subtracting real-world experience. (While we in the West have all the real-world experience anyone should endure, without any of their excellent understanding for subduing the “alien” ego within us).

Aren’t we, Yehshurim, lucky that the Eternal One loves simplicity, (even among His great complexities). His simplicity for the world is rooted in His 1st law – “Do not kill sentient life for your own gain”, which is played out in our lives through the Everlasting Agreement. Bad news is, that after we clear the blood firewall, (and our soul finally is allowed to start pushing through and outward like never before), many of the crazy, evil-spirit-filled psychos in the world can literally see it; and sometimes they come for us.

So, that's where His protections and provisions come in. Ask me how I know this...

Is a person truly “returned” to Him via that 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement if they change their diet, (even if they also change the way they think about the animals, and all other sentient life in His creation), but also harbor ill feelings for those still outside?

I think we can all agree that as with any group of people, there are many Vegans who are horrible people, (so the dietary aspect of this cannot be the sole ingredient). Many change their diet for medical or health reasons, and still find no issue with murdering our fellow man in wars, or for so-called justice, or other.

For some who are led to His Everlasting Agreement, the ego will of course allow those people to believe themselves to be more righteous, (which is also a dangerous, ego driven lie for sure). The ego in that person stands in the way of their complete cleansing, so obviously they are not yet fully returned within the confines of the 1st law of the Everlasting Agreement. (Possibly, these people are only beginning the path). I comment on this issue, because this is a dangerous condition to continue in. Like being stuck between two worlds and not knowing it.

I finally decided to comment on this topic after someone made certain comments to me recently, (in answer to commentary I made concerning my views on teaching new people), and how all the many side issues newcomers stress on: Like the identity of a messiah; Sabbath timing; holy day ritual specifics, etc. Which in my belief, all such trappings should be completely forgotten, at least until those people become fully versed and committed to the Eternal One’s 1st law and the Four Memorial Days and Prayers.

In most cases, if a person tells you that the Eternal One’s Everlasting Agreement 'is not', or 'cannot be all that is required'; we know this person is either one of two things: A dogmatic religious fanatic or someone who found (or was led to) the Everlasting Agreement, but still does not fully understand it, nor do they want to change.

Surely, I did not teach anyone that the Everlasting Agreement is about activism, or evangelism. Nor did my foundational book even begin teaching about the Agreement, (before teaching that you had to change yourself), by searching yourself, and by asking - "Why you believe what you believe"; before moving on in that book.

I did however teach, (in The Land of Meat & Honey), that His Everlasting Agreement terms of service required two things. And in these two things, you would automatically fulfill the 1st and greatest command.

As I stated previously, (and often) - The first thing one must do to “Teshuvah = Return”, is to commit oneself to the Eternal One’s foundational and perpetual rule, which is: "Do not murder anything in which He gave His Living-Soul" = (sentience), and "Do not consume the flesh of it"! (NOT for your own gain) When you commit to this, there will be a period of physical and spiritual cleansing that will vary from person to person.

The second part is not unlike the first. In fact, it is the first part that is most responsible for the greater and greater success of the second part, which is: “Treat all living souls as you would have them treat you”. (One might even say that ALL of the Original Law Instructions hang on that particular one, It seems that someone already mention that one long ago).

The fact is, (doing one of these in complete truth), forces one to also do the other and visa-versa into perpetuity.

It all again falls under the adage, that, you cannot say you love your Eternal Father in heaven, (which is the first and greatest command), while you also hate your brother, (much less murder the innocent).

And as we should know, all are One, (from the first man and woman through Enoch and Noach), of which all souls are connected; both man and animals; and all blood screams out from the ground into the ears of our Eternal Father!

And, THAT is the main point that everyone should be most concerned with in connection with your soul, and it’s eternal condition.

That is it, in a nutshell, if you somehow missed it within the many reiterations I made in the Land of Meat and Honey book, (along with the 8 subsequent books, nearly 100 podcasts and just as many blog articles).

It’s not about hating their actions, beating people into submission, or lighting fires under the guise of righteous anger; as that is all ego driven. It is up to the Father which soul “fields” are ready for the good seed, NOT us!

Some souls are ready to come back to this in your lifetime, but most are not, (that’s what the wheat & tare system is). Anything we do outside of those very limited boundaries of His 1st law system, (is again), all ego driven, a waste of energy, and a direct assault against the Eternal Creator’s primary law of Free Will, (and even against His plan and His will)!

When pushed for answers or stressing yourself, (on any of the many non-issue side topics), just reinforce the two parts of His Everlasting Agreement and know that they work in perfect symmetry. It also allows Him to work in that person, (and in you), at the Father's pace. This in time, will allow them, (or you), to release all those nonessential former beliefs, one by one.

It is much better to let the Eternal One dissolve the lies and misconceptions slowly, (one by one), rather than us ripping them out before a person’s internal structure is strong enough to safely allow the loss of those false paradigms. (Especially since their temporary, or even long-term grip on those former dogmas or superstitions will not be the cause of their soul’s demise).

And to quote another wise man – “all else if vanity"
- Subtraction is often addition in disguise!"
