As this report has shown, Judaism is a false religion that follows an extremely large set of man-made “laws” as a way of living. The man-made “Jewish law” spoken of here is not .” Halakha is defined as a collection of orally transmitted of “Mitzvot” (the 613 biblical laws) and also the Pharisee’s “Talmudic laws,” later including the rabbinical laws. Judaism’s Talmud consists of “Gemura” (“learning by tradition”), Mishna (the “oral” Torah), and written Torah. The actual written Scriptural Torah is the smallest part of the whole teaching, and it is mainly about the laws and the gematria (Kabbalistic numerology). Except for actual Torah, they are all compilations of orally transmitted “interpretations and teachings” of so-called “sages” (meaning a “wise and highly educated man”) and the rabbis, which originated around the time of the Babylonian exile between 597 and 538 BC (2 Ki 24-25;2 Ch 36; and Ezr – Neh).
By the time YSHUSHA began His ministry ca. 28 AD, Judaism—based on these teachings was well established, and the Pharisees, Sadducees, and Essenes were the three major sects of that time. The Pharisee sect was the largest and the most powerful group to control the Judeans. But, the most important thing we need to know about Judaism is that HALAKHA information is provided by Wikipedia link: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylonian_captivity) —only to give some quick and basic information on the subject.
These private interpretations believed in and practiced had very little to do with the true teaching of Moses what they found in the Torah (the first five books of the Old Testament)
Judaism and their Talmud was entirely based upon following their law (man-made laws and traditions) that they had concocted along with practicing Kabbalah-Satanism– which is “Judaism.”
The following excerpts from the web site: Judaism 101 says this:
“Judaism is not just a set of beliefs about G-d, man and the universe. Judaism is a comprehensive way of life, filled with rules and practices that affect every aspect of life: what you do when you wake up in the morning, what you can and cannot eat, what you can and cannot wear, how to groom yourself, how to conduct business, who you can marry, how to observe the holidays and Shabbat, and perhaps most important, how to treat G-d,other people, and animals. This set of rules and practices is known as halakhah.”
Does it sound like it has anything to do with what the Torah—what the first five books of the Old Testament teaches? What it really is then, is the tradition of the elders that YAHUSHA spoke of. This “Halakha” was “the law” against which our ADONI and Apostle Paul spoke so strongly; it was the “tradition of elders,” and “the law” that we should not be “under” (Romans 1-8).
(Matthew 15:1-9) (1) Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, (2) “Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.” (3) He answered and said to them, (4) “For YAHUAH commanded, saying, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ (5) “But you say, ‘whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is a gift to YAHUAH”– (6) ‘then he need not honor his father or mother.’ (7) “Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: (8) ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. (9) And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ “
YAHUSHA is effectively saying in this passage that man-made rules and traditions, which they called, “the law,” meaning, “Halakha,” are actually causing people to go against the Commandments of YAHUAH. But instead, literally goes against them. When you read Paul’s teachings, especially in Romans and Galatians, you must scrutinize every word, especially the word such as “law,” and analyze it in the proper with YAHUAH ELOHIYM Himself you also transgress the commandment of YAHUAH because of your (elder’s) tradition? “Why do Thus you have made the commandment of YAHUAH of no effect by your traditions.
Therefore, the so-called “Jewish law” is not the same as the Commandments of YAHUAH, which is Torah are “supposed to” do.
In “context,” being mindful that the word “law” can mean: Halakha or Torah. We must always strive to understand word meanings in the Scriptures in the context of the passage, the chapter, and the Canon (the entire Scriptures). It has to make sense in ALL contexts. If you fail to exercise this important principle when studying the Scriptures, such as with the word, “law,” you will be confused and end up believing that the Torah was done away with when our Master was crucified . . . which is Satan’s lie preached by the wolves in sheep’s clothing. Some translations, such as the NKJV, distinguish the two by capitalizing “L” when it is referring to the Torah.
To Summarize
It should be clear at this point in this report—that the people who practice Judaism are “the Jews,” who do not understand or follow the Law of Moses as YAHUAH ELOHIYM intended, but follow their “own versions” of it. These man-made versions have tremendous amounts of added and twisted man-made rules, regulations, customs, traditions, dress codes, food restrictions (Kosher Food), etc., and the various punishments for violating these “laws”— which depends upon the interpretation of the law the by ones favorite rabbi. Judaism is a man-made prison of a strict lifestyle (such as with all cults); which is not the same as obeying the Scriptural “Torah” given by YAHUAH ELOHIYM. They do not worship YAHUAH ELOHIYM; they just pretend to worship Him, and many followers are deceived into believing they are worshiping YAHUAH through Judaism, however in truth, they are worshipping Lucifer.
As pointed out Judaizers are those who “live as the Jews,” and who influence non- Jews to live as the Jews, following the teachings of Halakha, wearing what they wear (tallit, tzitzi, and kippah, i.e. prayer shawls and skull caps, etc.), talking like they talk with Hebrew jargon and terminologies, calling YAHUAH ELOHIYM, “HaShem,” meaning “the name,” spelling “God” with a dash in the middle (“G-d”), praying the prescribed prayers at the prescribed time, keeping the Sabbath and the Feasts religiously, eating the Kosher Food, and even getting circumcised. But, when they do these things, they do them with fear of “breaking the law” and Many follow these Jewish traditions in order to “identify” with the “chosen people of YAHUAH”. If you do any of these things for whatever reason, you have been Judaized. Furthermore, in all of these things they are obligated to do as Judaism demands. True followers and are not to come under the yoke and burden of Judaism but under the that our Master spoke about:
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest…Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls… For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:28-30)
It is impossible to keep Judaism’s law to the letter, so they are doomed to fail.
They live under condemnation when they do not do what they the Scriptures refers to being under the law. Judaism has very little to do with the Torah This is what Old Covenant then, and absolutely nothing to do with it today.
It only has the appearance or “form of godliness.” It has never been of YAHUAH ELOHIYM’s from the beginning but has subverted the true teachings of Moses, transforming him into some sort of spiritual “guru” rather than a holy prophet of YAHUAH, and it has only gotten worse over time, as you will learn further into this report. Netseriym is not rooted in any way to Judaism. But it is the false religion that our ADONI YAHUSHA rebuked and condemned in all of the Gospels. The term, “Judeo-Christian,” is actually an oxymoron.
The Hebraic Awakening is an “Awakening” – an awakening to the walk YAHAUAH gave the Hebrew people and an attempt to pattern one’s life after the model YAHUAH gave to them – especially that of the Hebrew of Hebrews, YAHUSHA HA’MASHIACH/The Messiah.
According to Scripture, Abraham was a righteous man. He was not Jewish and he was not Christian. He was a Hebrew (Gen. 14:13). The term ” Hebrew ” is rooted in the concept of crossing over. Abram forsook the ways of his father and crossed over the Jordan River into a new life – a life of following the Creator of the Universe YAHUAH.
Nearly 400 years later, the Yisraelites left Egypt and eventually crossed over that same Jordan into the promised land to begin a new life as free men – governed by a code of laws and instructions spoken by the mouth of YAHUAH to His servant Moses.
Though Abraham was neither Jewish nor Christian, both Judaism and Christianity are rooted in and are called to be a part of the covenant YAHUAH made with this righteous man, Abraham the Hebrew.
Thus YAHUAH calls Himself “the ELOHIYM of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
There is a war going on right now and it doesn’t involve guns or the military industrial complex.
It’s a war on consciousness and most people are clueless that it even exists.
Education or Indoctrination?
Ultimately, the education system can be blamed for feeding us propaganda and forcing us to regurgitate it so we can “fit in” with the rest of society. Our public school systems are set up to get the students primed for economic slavery without ever offering courses that allow to students to think creatively or freely.
If you trace the company’s who print our children’s textbooks, you’ll find a Zionist agenda behind them all. For example, George W. Bush’s grandfather, Prescott Bush, was arrested for funding both sides of World War II, yet we never learned this in school. Why? Because had we learned this, NEITHER Bush would have been elected president for having a traitor in their lineage.
We are taught about Darwinism and how man evolved from ape but if this were true, then why are there still apes?
And surely, Christopher Columbus didn’t “discover” America.
Granted some things that we learn in school are the truth, such as math, music and some science but our TRUE history has been kept from us for reasons of subservience, control and conformity.
In all forms of education, there are still perpetual references to “fossil fuels” including at the college level. How ridiculous is this? Oil is abiotic, which means it replenishes itself, yet we are draining the planet of a lubricant that serves no other interests other than economic.
For example, in the late 1980’s, Stanley Meyer invented a car that could go from coast to coast in the United States on 21 gallons of water. He was offered $1 billion from the automobile industry for his invention but turned it down because he wanted this idea to go to the people. Shortly afterwards, he was poisoned to death and the invention has been hidden from us ever since, yet our children are not learning about inventors such as Meyer in school, nor are they being encouraged to develop alternate fuel sources.
Our children are inevitably asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Their answers become conditioned responses in various forms of economic subservience instead of what they truly would like to do.
There are literally thousands of “out of place artifacts” that shows how we have been here MUCH longer than the official story of both evolution and the bible, yet no high school or university will come near to approaching this topic because it would blow the lid off of all religions.
For example, in Illinois, a well bit brought up a 200,000 year old bronze coin from a depth of 114 feet just outside Chillicothe, Illinois. According to the Illinois State Geological Survey, the deposits containing the coin are between 200,000 and 400,000 years old.
If our true history was revealed, it would cause every system of education to rewrite history and would make the professors teaching “history” look like idiots, so it’s much easier to suppress the truth than to admit they were wrong while killing religion.
Most people have an equally hard time understanding that both religions and governments will lie to you in order to fulfill an agenda.
In religion, look no further than several clergy members of the Roman Catholic Church who admitted that the fictitious hell does not exist.
In government, look how Hitler burned down his own Reichstag building and blamed the communists in order to incite war. Many people believe the same template was used for 9/11.
The closer you look, the more you’ll find that religion is in bed with the government as both are about controlling the masses through subservience, control and conformity while neither encourage free thinking or questioning the official stories.
Literal television “programming”
Most people seem to have the attitude that if a talking head on an official news station, such as CNN, says something, then surely it must be the truth. A CIA whistleblower has already admitted that the news has been scripted for decades in order to influence public opinion.
The television shows that people watch are either so mundane or intellectually draining that you’re better off not watching TV at all.
Furthermore, the commercials are either hyping materialistic crap that we don’t need,processed food ladened with GMO’s, alcohol(ism) or some Big Pharma pill that will only place a symbolic bandage over the issue and will never cure you of anything.
The actors they use to sell these products ultimately are telling us that we are not pretty or handsome enough and that our lives would be so much better if we were like them.
This is the LITERAL programming we receive when we watch TV, yet millions of people would rather do that than to better themselves with a hobby or creating something that would benefit mankind.
Those in power want you to be as distracted as much as possible with no time to think critically or independently, about anything other than who won the recent sports game or the latest contestant on a reality show.
Where is the truth and who should I believe?
For those who watch too much TV: Each day you waste by doing nothing to better yourself is one less day that you had an opportunity to grow in body, mind and spirit.
Instead of watching TV, spend time reading and researching material from the masters. You can find a large quantity of esoteric texts here.
Instead of getting your news from the main stream media, go to alternative news websites such as In5D Alternative News to get the news that the mainstream media fails to report.
Sadly, most people will fight for the same system that has kept us all as economic slaves than to envision a world without money, government or religion.
Einstein is often quoted as saying, ” Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.” This is reminiscent of every election as they always boil down to the lesser of two evils… and you always end up with evil.
If you look hard enough, you can always find the truth but most people aren’t willing to spend the time doing so. These are the same people who are content watching 3-5 hours of TV every day.
Ultimately, use your discernment when researching anything, including anything that’s on this website. If your gut tells you there’s something wrong, then chances are, there is something wrong with what you read.
You’re always being guided to find the answers, whether that is through personal experiences or through the experiences of others. Be open minded about everything you read and watch when researching and you will continue to follow your path of enlightenment.
The war on consciousness will only go as far as you allow it to go.

Hagee is also the founder and national chairman of Christians United for Israel, a Christian-Zionist organization. Hagee’s Cornerstone Church, a 5,000-seat sanctuary, was first opened in 1987. Today, it’s estimated that Hagee has a net worth of $5 million.
6. Noel Jones – $5 Million
Bishop Noel Jones has some high connections. Born in Jamaica, Jones is the brother of actress, model, and singer Grace Jones. Jones reportedly heard his calling to the ministry at the age of 19 and received a theological Bachelor’s degree from Aenon Bible College. By age 26, he was a pastor in Texas. In 1994, Jones became bishop of the Greater Bethany Community Church in Los Angeles. At the time it had 1,000 congregates. It has since grown to an astounding 17,000 members. Jones is estimated to have a net worth of $5 million these days.
5. Louis Farrakhan – $3 Million
Louis Eugene Walcott, known now as Louis Farrakhan, was born in the Bronx in 1933. He received the name Farrakhan after converting to the religion of Islam in 1955. The American minister eventually became the leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI) religious group, which the Southern Poverty Law Center describes as a black nationalist and black supremacist group and promotes an anti-white theology. The Anti-Defamation League has described Farrakhan’s preaching as antisemitic. Farrakhan disputes all those characterizations. The latest estimates say Farrakhan has a net worth around $3 million.
4. Franklin Graham – $10 Million
Franklin Graham is the son of the famed evangelist Billy Graham and inherited much of the elder Graham’s vast fortune. Franklin is the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse, an international Christian relief organization. Graham has come under increased scrutiny in recent years for his anti-Muslim viewpoints, falsely claiming that Islam is “a religion of hatred. It’s a religion of war.” Graham also supports the pseudo-science “conversion therapy,” which claims to be able to change a person’s sexual orientation from homosexual to heterosexual. Graham has an estimated net worth of $10 million.
3. Richard Rossi – $1 Million
Richard Rossi has perhaps the most wild backstory of all pastors on this list. Rossi became a minister in the Pittsburgh area in the 1980s, but in 1994, he was accused of the attempted murder of his wife Sherrie Lynn, who was discovered on the side of a highway with her skull caved in. After initially accusing Rossi (who repeatedly changed his story) of the attack, Lynn eventually changed her story and the murder charges were dropped. Rossi did however plead no contest to second-degree aggravated assault charges and served 96 days in jail. Rossi eventually moved to Hollywood and became a sort of “pastor for the stars” and even appeared in several films, as well as writing a book and screenplays. Rossi has launched a support group that helps combat fentanyl addiction, as well as participates in fundraising events to help the homeless in Los Angeles. Rossi has a net worth of $1 million, reportedly.
2. Kirk Cameron – $20 Million
Kirk Cameron is most famous for his acting career in the 1980s and early 1990s, but a switch to a born-again Christian strained his relationships in Hollywood and Cameron mostly left the profession behind. Cameron admitted his turn to a more devout life was “inadvertently hurtful to the cast.” Cameron now runs The Way of the Master, which is an evangelical Christian ministry he co-founded with fellow evangelist Ray Comfort. Cameron has most recently used his faith to promote Christian ideology in a series of theatrical films, so he hasn’t quite given up the spotlight. Cameron is estimated to have a net worth of $20 million.
1. Paul Cain (Deceased) – $1 Million
Anna Cain was pregnant with Paul while suffering from cancer and tuberculosis, and was not expected to survive. However, she reportedly had an “angelic” visitation and miraculously was cured. This caused Anna to believe Paul was being called to preach and Cain eventually led ministries with attendance above 30,000 people. But Cain felt the immense wealth of other ministers (such as Billy Graham) had corrupted the movement with greed. In 1994, Cain publicly acknowledged he “struggled” with homosexuality and alcoholism. He kept a low profile for many years, but began more public speaking engagements in 2007. He passed away in February 2019 with a relatively modest net worth of $1 million.
Lest We Forget the Vandals, Heruli, and the Ostrogoths . . .
We honor the Vandals, Heruli, and Ostrogoths [VHO]. They preferred their own extinction over accepting the papal/pagan Trinity doctrine.
Today, the overwhelming majority of Christians uphold the Trinity doctrine. It is commonly assumed that this doctrine was espoused Christians throughout history, but this was not the case. The Trinity doctrine, like the prohibition against the use of the Solar Calendar, was forced on the Natsariym by pagan Roman emperors with the full support and encouragement of the bishops of Rome.
History testifies that up until the latter part of the fourth century, the preponderant belief of the true followers of YAHUAH was not in a Triune ELOHIYM (G-d) but in what is generally now termed as Arianism. It was only when a Roman Emperor issued a series of edicts enforced by threats and punishment that Trinitarianism began to take hold within early Christianity. The migration from Arianism to Trinitarianism took time and ultimately resulted in the extinction of three kingdoms before it was established.
The Scriptures foretold the extinction of these three kingdoms, as it part of preparing the way for the ascendency of the Little Horn.
“I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.” (Daniel 7:8)
“And of the tenhorns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.” (Daniel 7:20)
“And the ten hornsout of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.” (Daniel 7:24)
These three kingdoms, mentioned three times in the Book of Daniel, were to be defeated [plucked up] by the little horn, to make way for the rise of the papacy. In ancient times, the conquering
king wore the crown of the conquered king (e.g. 2 Samuel 12:30). The papal tiara, traditionally worn by popes until the pontificate of Pope John Paul I1, is symbolically very fitting for the extinction of these three kingdoms. Bishop Thomas Newton, on this very point, stated:
“And the pope hath in a manner pointed himself out for the person by wearing the triple crown.”2
Why were the VHO hated by the popes of Rome?
The Roman Catholic Church regards the Trinity Doctrine as the bedrock for all her beliefs and teaching.
“The mystery of the trinity is the central doctrine of Catholic faith. Upon it are based all the other teachings of the church.”3
If the Church of Rome was to prevail in enforcing her doctrines on the Christian world, then all opposition to the Trinity doctrine had to be eliminated. And these three kingdoms (VHO) stood in the way of supreme papal power.
“Among the principal obstructions to the rise of papal Rome to political power were the Heruli, the Vandals, and the Ostrogoths. All three were supporters of Arianism, which was the most formidable rival of Catholicism.”4
There is no doubt that these three kingdoms held beliefs concerning YAHUAH and YAHUSHA that were not Trinitarian by any stretch of imagination. They openly rejected the Trinity doctrine of Rome. The challenge these kingdoms posed to Rome was not taken lightly by the bishops of Rome; it took many wars until Rome was freed from the Arian opposition posed by these three kingdoms.
“In the year of our MASTER 493, the Heruli in Rome and Italy were conquered by the Ostrogoths. In 534, the Vandals, who were under Arian influence, were conquered by the Greeks, for the purpose of establishing the supremacy of the Catholics.”5
With two of the three kingdoms utterly destroyed, the attention now focused on the remaining Ostrogoths, who were in control of Rome. Prior to their destruction, a decree by Emperor Justinian was issued in 533 AD appointing the Bishop of Rome as head over all Christian churches in both the Eastern and Western divisions of the Roman Empire. This decree, however, could not be enforced while the Arian Ostrogoths were in control of Rome.
“The edict of the emperor Justinian, dated A. D. 533, made the bishop of Rome the head of all the churches. But this edict could not go into effect till the Arian Ostrogoths, the last of the three horns that were plucked up to make room for the papacy, were driven from Rome, and this was not accomplished, as already shown, till A. D. 538. The edict would have been of no effect had this latter event not been accomplished.”6
By conquering the Ostrogoths, and driving them out of Rome, the pope became the de facto ruler of Rome, and the established head over all Christian churches in the Roman Empire. Justinian’s “achievements profoundly affected the whole future of Europe, and his intervention altered the entire status of the bishops of Rome. His victories were gained over people who to a large extent adhered to the teachings of Arius.”7
It was the victory over the three Arian kingdoms that established the supremacy of bishop of Rome as head of the Christian world.
“The contest between Arianism and the orthodox Catholicism was the means of enthroning the papacy.”8
It is not difficult in light of this history to understand how important the pagan Trinity is to the Roman Catholic Church. It is the doctrine that establishes her primacy over all churches. Is it any wonder today that all the Christian denominations have moved away from the Scriptural teaching regarding the Father and Son and have, in its place, adopted the Roman Catholic Trinity doctrine?
The three Arian kingdoms did not compromise to remain in existence. In those days, the people professed the faith of their kings. Thus, the kings and the people they ruled chose death over a doctrine that distorts their love and adoration for the Father and His Son.
“Perhaps no other truth in all of Holy Scripture comes to us so marked with the blood of controversy as does the Bible doctrine of the Trinity. History records that ancient nations staked their very existence upon their conception of the Godhead.”9
To become Trinitarian and choose life instead of death was the test for His people in the sixth century. The VHO chose to be faithful to His Word, and paid the ultimate price. This is why we honor their memory, and are inspired by their example and matchless faithfulness to His truth. “Theseall died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.”10
The faithful today are faced with a life and death situation, not unlike that which was faced by the VHO. The Church of Rome has succeeded in deceiving the whole world into accepting her counterfeit calendar as the calendar for identifying YAHUAH’s holy days, just as it has succeeded in enforcing her pagan Trinity doctrine upon all of Christendom. This grand deception has united the whole world in opposition to YAHUAH and His divine calendar. But just as there were faithful people in the past who stood up to Rome and her false pagan distortion of the Scripture teaching regarding the Father and Son, today there are faithful ones around the world who are rejecting the Gregorian calendar and instead are using YAHUAH’s calendar for observing YAHUAH’s holy weekly Sabbath and annual feasts. And just as it was in the past when Rome resorted to the imperial power to wipe out opposition, very soon Rome will wage a relentless final war against the faithful who refuse to submit to her calendar. This time, she will use the strong arm of the Second Beast of Revelation [the USA] to enforce her false Sabbath over all of Christendom. The faithful today will likewise choose death, as the VHO before did, rather than honoring Rome’s counterfeit calendar. YAHUAH will honor the faithful by sealing their foreheads with His seal. For they will have His character and their lives will reflect His image, even in the face of persecution and death. The wicked, on the other hand, will choose to submit to Rome and will receive the dreadful mark of the beast.
Will you choose to be faithful to His testing truth today, as the VHO were in their test, or will you choose the easy way and submit to Rome?
We pray that you will choose to remain faithful till the end.
The pagan god worshipped in The Mystery Religion of Babylon was a triune god made up of Father/Son/Mother of G-d. The father was the son, the son the father, and both were one with the mother in marriage. We see this abomination as a constant theme not only among pagan religions but also condemned in The Scriptures as YAHUAH is not a triune g-d but the one and only living Elohim.
It is the worship of this triune “Trinity” representation of g-ds that apposes the Elohim in The Scriptures as YAHUAH declares “you shall have no other elohiyms before me”… “Before me” is the English translation of the Hebrew words “in my face”. So YAHUAH actually said “you shall have no other elohims in my face!” The same expression used of Nimrod who was described as a “mighty hunter before YAHUAH’ or rather a “mighty hunter in the face of YAHUAH” implying rebellion against YAHUAH. So we are to “have no other (g-d’s) elohim’s in YAHUAH’s face!”
NOTE: The declaration that YAHUAH is ONE not a Trinity is the central theme in the True Faith of every man of Elohim in the Scriptures, including The Messiah. This knowledge of YAHUAH being the One and Only Creator and Elohim is the very “mark” on the forehead of the Elect called “The Shema” that marks the elect for eternal life. When YAHUSHA (the True Messiah) was asked the single greatest commandment of YAHUAH, he quoted The Shema (Shema means “hear” in Hebrew) by quoting literally from The Torah Deuteronomy Chapter 6:
Mark 12:29
“The most important one,” answered YAHUSHA, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel, YAHUAH our ELOHIYM, YAHUAH is one.
YAHUSHA was quoting Deuteronomy 6:4 verbatim. This passage of Deuteronomy is also defined as the “mark between our eyes and on our right hands”. It IS the “mark of YAHUAH” that sets us apart from this “false religion” whose mark is literally The Trinity made on the foreheads of newly baptized babied and over the hearts of literally billions every day as they make “the sign of the cross” in the name of The Trinity.
This “mark” of YAHUAH on our foreheads and right hand displayed by The Messiah and expressed as the single greatest command as we see below is an outright denial of the pagan Trinity g-ds:
Deuteronomy 6
4 Hear, O Israel: YAHUAH our ELOHIYM, YAHUAH is one. 5 Love YAHUAH your ELOHIYM with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols (mark) on your hands and bind them (mark) on your foreheads.
The true Messiah YAHUSHA again demonstrated this singular knowledge of YAHUAH is the foundation of eternal life. For He is the giver of life and to receive that life you must be in covenant with YAHUAH through the Renewed Covenant:
John 17:3
3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You (YAHUAH), the only true ELOHIYM, and (then there is) YAHUSHA (the) Messiah whom You (YAHUAH) have sent (as the Passover not Easter sacrifice for sin).
We also see this same triune god is a consistent theme in every pagan religion which evolved from The Mystery Religion of Babylon. This religion of Satan cleverly apposes the Mark of YAHUAH in the minds (mark of the forehead is a metaphor for knowledge).
The History of the “Pagan Trinity”
Triple deity
A triple deity (sometimes referred to as threefold, Trinity, tripled, triplicate, tripartite, triune or triadic) is a deity associated with the number three. Such deities are common throughout world mythology; the number three has a long history of mythical associations. C. G. Jung considered the arrangement of deities into triplets an archetype (or mark) in the history of religion. The deities and legendary creatures of this nature typically fit into one of the following general categories:
• triadic (“forming a group of three”): a triad, three entities inter-related in some way (life, death, rebirth, for example, or triplet children of a deity) and always or usually associated with one another or appearing together;
• triune (“three-in-one, one-in-three”): a Trinity being with three aspects or manifestations;
• tripartite (“of triple parts”): a being with three body parts where there would normally be one (three heads, three pairs of arms, and so on); or
• triplicate-associated (“relating to three corresponding instances”): a being in association with a trio of things of the same nature which are symbolic or through which power is wielded (three magic birds, etc.)
Now let us take a journey throughout history as The Trinity evolved as THE G-D of almost every pagan religion in opposition to YAHUAH, the ONLY TRUE ELOHIM. As we see The Messiah YAHUSHA speaking to his Heavenly Father, YAHUAH in John 17:3 declares this simple truth and that truth is where salvation is found:
John 17:3
3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you (YAHUAH), the only true ELOHIYM, and (your) Messiah YAHUSHA, whom you have sent.
Again, when asked the single greatest commandment in the entire Scriptures, YAHUSHA clearly contradicted the “pagan Trinity” in Mark 12:28-34 the Messiah correctly answered the “teachers of The Law” with what is known as “The Shema” which is the “Seal of YAHUAH” on your forehead… YAHUSHA quoted directly from Deuteronomy 12:
Mark 12:28-34
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that YAHUSHA had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
29 “The most important one,” answered YAHUSHA, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: YAHUAH our ELOHIYM, YAHUAH is (the) one (and only ELOHIYM). 30 Love YAHUAH your ELOHIYM with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
So much for “the Trinity”… that is how pagans worship their g-ds, not how the men in the Scripture including The Messiah worshipped YAHUAH. YAHUAH forbids us from “saying we are worshipping him” in the way pagans worship their g-ds:
Deuteronomy 12:31
You must not worship YAHUAH your ELOHIYM in their way, because in worshiping their elohiym’s (g-ds), they do all kinds of detestable things YAHUAH hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their elohiym’s (g-ds).
No wonder Christianity abolished The Torah. It stands as witness against every ritual they practice
1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS.
Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ezekiel 34 1-6 And the word of YAHUAH Elohim came to me, saying, 2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Yisrael, prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says YAHUAH Elohim to the shepherds: “Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks? 3 You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool; you slaughter the fatlings, but you do not feed the flock.
4 The weak you have not strengthened, nor have you healed those who were sick, nor bound up the broken, nor brought back what was driven away, nor sought what was lost; but with force and cruelty you have ruled them. 5 So they were scattered because there was no shepherd; and they became food for all the beasts of the field when they were scattered.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill; yes, My flock was scattered over the whole face of the earth, and no one was seeking or searching for them.”
False teachers/preachers like Kenneth Copeland are all about money !!
Paula White threatens urges her followers to give “first fruits”offerings [translation “give me your monthly, daily or weekly paycheck] most likely to pay off her credit card debts from overspending on lavish Christmas gifts!
She asserted that “2018 is a year of life and deliverance from struggle [and] it begins right now with first fruits.” White noted that part of the Hebrew word for 18 means “alive” or “living.”
“We are demanding life to your purpose,” she declared. “And with obedience to this first fruits instruction, which is putting God first now, your purpose, your year, your prosperity, and your power will have life and be resurrected!”
“When you apply this, everything comes in divine alignment for His plan and promises for you. When you don’t honor it, whether through ignorance or direct disobedience, there are consequences,” White also said.
She basically uses a scare tactic by saying,”there are “consequences” for those who don’t do so out of “ignorance or direct disobedience.” This behavior should be illegal and is nothing less than fleecing ignorant religious indoctrinated people!
These people are literally being BRAINWASHED in to giving their hard earned cash to this woman!
The only “consequences” in not giving this charlatan your money is that YOU’LL HAVE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET!
She noted that some of her partners “sow a month’s pay, a week’s pay, [or] a day’s pay,”—whatever is their best. White stated that the offering differs from a tithe—or 10 percent—because it is the whole of the first.
Now that she’s been publicly slammed for her apparent get rich quick scheme, her damage control team is cleaning up her mess by stating,” her comments were taken out of context,”
NO THEY WEREN’T!
This is what these religious parasites say consistently to their hypnotized followers year after year; there are poor people who have given to her for YEARS and the only one who is rich is her!
“As you remember the Lord your God, according to Deuteronomy 8:18, through your first fruits offering, He gives you the power to acquire wealth to establish His covenant,” she wrote in a post on her website, accompanied by a YouTube video.
“Each January, I put God first and honor Him with the first of our substance by sowing a first fruits offering of one month’s pay. That is a big sacrifice, but it is a seed for the harvest I am believing for in the coming year,” White outlined.
What “seed”? Luke 8:11 CLEARLY states that the seed is the word of YAH- NOT MONEY!
Paula quoted Deuteronomy 8:18 but YAH was talking to the Yisraelites – NOT CHRISTIANS, and Deuteronomy 8:18 has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with giving money!
Paula White is using the Old Testament [which she claims to not be under] to support her stealing and using Hebrew numerology meanings to trick people. When will you Christians WAKE UP and come out of Babylon?
White considers herself a life coach and has been married three times. Her first marriage was to Dean Knight and the two have a son together named Bradley. In 2007, White divorced her second husband, Randy White, and in 2015, she married Journey rocker Jonathan Cain, who has likewise been married three times.
Paula White needs to REPENT! And if her repentance is sincere she will not remarry when her current marriage ends in divorce.
YAHUAH will not change His law of marriage and divorce to favor Paula White or anyone else.
After Trump’s spiritual adviser calls for ‘all satanic pregnancies to miscarry,’ she says it was a metaphor
A Florida pastor and longtime spiritual adviser to President Donald Trump says she was speaking in metaphor when she recently prayed in a sermon for all “satanic pregnancies” to end in miscarriage.
In video of the Jan. 5 sermon, posted by the liberal advocacy group Right Wing Watch, televangelist pastor Paula White breathlessly calls on Jesus Christ to “command all satanic pregnancies to miscarry right now.”
“We declare that anything that’s been conceived in satanic wombs, that it will miscarry, it will not be able to carry forth any plan of destruction, any plan of harm,” White said before an auditorium of congregants.
As of Sunday morning, the clip, which was just under two minutes long, had been viewed more than 2.5 million times.
White’s words are largely being interpreted literally – that she wishes for evil women to have miscarriages – but she shared a rare response to the criticism in which she explained that she was speaking in metaphor, praying for evil plans to be foiled in her congregants’ lives.
“I don’t normally respond but clearly this has been taken out of context,” White tweeted Sunday. “I was praying (Ephesians) 6:12 that we wrestle not against flesh and blood. Anything that has been conceived by demonic plans, for it to be cancelled and not prevail in your life …”
Ephesians 6:12, according to the King James Bible translation, reads: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
After watching the clip, André Gagné, a theological studies professor at Concordia University and expert on the Christian right, said White was probably speaking in metaphor when she called for the miscarriages. He pointed to a book by Nigerian evangelist D.K. Olukoya that describes “satanic pregnancies” as “the plans that Satan has against a person’s life.”
Still, many observers recoiled at White’s remarks.
“So Paula White wants everyone at @WhiteHouse to know she is praying for abortion,” tweeted Jennifer Gunter, an obstetrician and gynecologist who writes a column on women’s reproductive health for the New York Times.
“No pregnancies are satanic. Every child is a gift from God,” tweeted James Martin, a prominent Jesuit priest. “No one should ever pray for any woman to miscarry. No one should ever pray for evil or harm to befall another person. Jesus asked us to pray for our persecutors, not to curse them. To love our neighbors as ourselves.”
White did not respond to a request for comment sent Sunday morning.
The 53-year-old megachurch pastor, who recently joined the White House Office of Public Liaison as a religious adviser, delivered the remarks during a sermon in which she inveighed against a variety of forces, including anyone who sought to harm Trump.
“We come against the marine kingdom, we come against the animal kingdom,” said White, eyes closed. “We declare that any strange winds – any strange winds that have been sent to hurt the church, sent against this nation, sent against our president, sent against myself, sent against others – we break it by the superior blood of Jesus right now.”
She also condemned “any hex, any spell, any witchcraft, any spirit of control, any Jezebel,” and “anything that the enemy desires through spells,” according to the footage.
Impassioned rhetoric is one of White’s calling cards. She has used the same type of language in numerous rallies and public events, including a re-election rally for Trump in June.
But it is almost unheard of for a leader of an evangelical church to call for the death of unborn babies in any context. The belief in the right to life and opposition to abortion rights are paramount political issues for religious conservatives, and defections from those stances are rare, even in metaphor.
An October 2018 article from Christianity Today, the country’s flagship evangelical magazine, offered a list of recommendations for pastors to help grieving couples cope with the loss of a baby. “Grieving parents need to know that their friends and church family care about them,” the article read. A post last year on the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association website also offers supportive words for mothers who have miscarried.
Miscarriages are the most common type of pregnancy loss, occurring in 10 to 20 percent of all pregnancies. The causes can vary: chromosomal abnormalities, infections, substance abuse. In the United States, medical professionals define a miscarriage as the death of an embryo or fetus before the 20th week of pregnancy. The loss of a baby after the 20th week is a stillbirth.
White has been in Trump’s orbit for years, sticking close to him as he has embraced the evangelical movement, an essential part of his support base.
The pair first spoke in the early 2000s when Trump called her with glowing reviews of her televised sermon, The Washington Post Magazine has reported. Focus on the Family founder James Dobson later credited White as having “personally led (Trump) to Christ.”
White said she was aware of Trump’s presidential ambitions long before he ran. She told The Washington Post in 2017 that Trump reached out to her in 2011 for advice on a White House bid. “I don’t feel it’s the right timing,” she said she told him.
When he did decide to run, White was involved with the campaign, at one point helping orchestrate a meeting with hundreds of evangelical leaders. And when Trump was inaugurated, White was one of six clergy members who spoke at the ceremony.
In October, she joined the White House in an official capacity, advising the president’s Faith and Opportunity Initiative and handling outreach to religious groups.
Paula White, Trump “spiritual advisor”: “We command all Satanic pregnancies to miscarry right now!
The Bride of The Messiah is Yisra’el and None Other
She will be Qodesh (Set-Apart) in Righteousness Guarding the Commands of YAHUAH
We know how Yisra’el became a mighty nation under King David. But, friction broke out between the tribe of Yahudah (Judah) (including Benjamin and later, the Levites) and the other 10 tribes, which are usually referred to as Yisra’el (Israel) in Scripture.
Yahudah (Judah) is sometimes referred to as Yisra’el, but in most cases it applies to the other 10 tribes collectively known as the House of Yisra’el, the House of Joseph or Ephraiym. The House of Jacob can include all of Yisra’el.
The argument was over Yahudah (Judah) moving King David from Gilgal to Jerusalem. (II Sam. 19:41- 43). Yahudah (Judah) contended that the King was Yahudiym (Jewish) and hence, their relative. The House of Yisra’el countered that they owned 10 parts of Jacobs House, which was the greater share, and they should be in control of kingly moves and decisions. (II Sam. 19:42-43).
This was the beginning of the split into two separate kingdoms (II Sam. 20:1-2). However, the actual split didn’t take place until after the reign of Solomon, King David’s son.
In violation of Torah, Solomon put Jeroboam over the House of Joseph as forced laborers.
No tribe of Yisra’el was to be enslaved by another. YAHUAH was angry with Solomon and rent the kingdom from his hand and gave the 10 tribes to Jeroboam (I Kings 11:28,31).
But for David’s sake, He removed the 10 tribes after the death of Solomon (I Kings 11:34-35). But He gave one tribe Yahudah (Judah) to Solomon’s son, Rehoboam (I Kings 11:36). So, the 10 tribes rebelled against the House of David (I Kings 12:10; Isa. 7). Only the tribes of Yahudah (Judah) and Benjamin stayed with Rehoboam (I Kings 12:21).
Jeroboam, king of the Northern Kingdom of Yisra’el decided to ordain his own priests and did so using some of the lowest in character that were not even Levites. Jeroboam cast the Levites off from executing the office of priest. Offended, the Levites went to Jerusalem and Yahudah (Judah) (II Chron. 11:13-14). This is how Yahudah (Judah) came to include the Levites also.
Yahudah (Judah) was angry over the split and wanted to go to war with Yisra’el to reunite the kingdom into one again under Rehoboam (I Kings 12:21).
But YAHUAH spoke to Shemaiah, the man of Elohim, and told him to warn Rehoboam not to go up against Yisra’el, that this thing was from Him (I Kings 12:22-24).
Yisra’el went into gross apostasy. They decided to worship in their own way. They made two calves of gold to be their gods, built a house in a high place and made priests out of just about anybody they chose. Jeroboam ordained his own feasts and sacrificed unto the calves on the altar he built and burnt incense (I Kings 12:28-33).
Things haven’t changed much in the last 2700 years. We have done the same thing.
We have created our own feast days, Christmas and Easter, and rejected YAHUAH’s Feasts that He said were to be observed forever. We have decided that the Sabbath is no longer valid, with no scriptural basis whatsoever, and made Sunday our Sabbath. Yet, YAHUAH said the keeping of the Sabbath would be a sign between Him and His people forever, (Exo. 31:16-17; Ezek. 20:12). And look too at some of the priests the Church has ordained.
Although YAHUAH declared His name numerous times, we have chosen to substitute titles in place of His name, again with no scriptural justification to do this. We still call Him Baal (Lord) as did Yisra’el 2700 years ago.
We have rejected His law, although YAHUSHA plainly stated in his first Sermon on the Mount, that He did not come to destroy the law or the prophets, but to fulfill them.
Fulfill doesn’t mean “terminate.” He further added that until heaven and earth pass, not one jot or one tittle of the law shall in no wise pass from the law until all be fulfilled. And whoever would break one of the least of these commandments and teach men so, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven (Matt. 5:17-19).
The last time I looked, heaven and earth were still here. All things have not yet been fulfilled.
Therefore, either YAHUSHA lied, and we are still in our sins or the law is still valid today. This is the reason that Ephraiym Yisra’el went into captivity and was scattered among the nations of the world.
YAHUAH said He would smite Yisra’el and scatter them beyond the river and would give them up because of their sins (I Kings 12:15-16; Isa. 7:8; 2 Kings 17:21-23). He told them not to make any idols or graven images, neither rear up a standing image (obelisk), but to keep His Sabbaths, walk in His Statutes and keep His commandments. If not, He would punish them 7 times more for their sins and scatter them among the heathen.
All this was because they hated His statutes and law. They wanted to do their own thing, like many today. Read all Leviticus 26. They served Baal!
They are prophesied to become “not a people” (Deut. 32:21. This is important, as we will see later in this study. Paul refers to them in Rom. 10:19. They are the “Lo-Ami” (not a people) of Hosea Chapter 1. We will get into more on this later.
But, all is not lost…. Baruch HaShem YAHUAH (Bless the name of YAHUAH).
We serve a merciful creator. He said “And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am YAHUAH their Elohim (Lev. 26:44).
In fact, YAHUAH intends to gather them from all the nations where He had scattered them. He will once again bring them into the land He had given to their fathers and they shall possess it (Deut. 30:1-10).
He said it was a “light thing”, an easy task, for the Messiah to re-gather all the tribes of Yisra’el (See Isa. 49:6).
About 1000 B.C.E, before Yisra’el was split into two kingdoms, the prophet Nathan was instructed by YAHUAH to tell King David that He would appoint a place for Yisra’el, never to be moved again where the children of wickedness would afflict them no more (II Sam. 7:10; I Chron. 17:9).
This prophecy was given about 80 years before Yisra’el split into two kingdoms and at a time they were living in their own land and at peace.
This has to be still future as they were moved out of the land and are still being afflicted today.
Yisra’el is to be a people unto YAHUAH forever.(II Sam. 7:24).
YAHUAH only has one chosen people and that is Yisra’el.
The church is not a separate entity and does not replace Yisra’el.
When a person becomes born again, they are grafted into the Olive tree of Yisra’el.
If they are not grafted in, they are not YAHUAH’s people (not saved).
The Jews have to come the same way and although broken off, are grafted back in also.
The Bride of The Messiah is Yisra’el and None Other.
