Again, he said, “You will see them doing things that are even more detestable.” Then he brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of Yahuwah, and I saw women sitting there, mourning the god Tammuz. He said to me, “Do you see this, son of man? You will see things that are even more detestable than this.” He then brought me into the inner court of the house of Yahuwah, and there at the entrance to the temple, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five men. With their backs toward the temple of Yahuwah and their faces toward the east, they were bowing down to the Sun in the east. He said to me, “Have you seen this, son of man? Is it a trivial matter for the people of Judah to do the detestable things they are doing here? Must they also fill the land with violence and continually arouse my anger?Ezekiel 8:13-17
In addition to our previous articles, where we have already discussed the spiritual problems and the corrupt roots of Christmas, I would like to summarize in a little more detail what is the historical and pagan context of this holiday. See also the article: The prohibition of the “sacred tree”.
In the best of cases, Christian pastors teach their flocks that they must rely on their own conscience and that everyone must judge their relationship to this feast for themselves. In a somewhat loose way like Pilate: “I wash my hands of it, let everyone do as they see fit and in accordance with what the Spirit allows them to do.” Based on what is described here below, I now specifically encourage those who are in the Spirit and who have been filled with the Holy Spirit at some time to trust not their conscience, but their stomach, regarding how they will now position themselves in relation to this celebration which is frankly dark and demonic.
The perpetuation of this feast was one of the key stages in the Christianization of the pagan world and at the same time in the paganization of Christianity. By safeguarding and at the same time by Christianizing the greatest pagan festival, the ruling power of the time succeeded in a “master” trick, thus ensuring that the peoples did not rebel against the new religion adopted by the Emperor Constantine. The main tool in the greatest attack ever perpetrated against the Body of Messiah by the foundation of the Roman church is as usual: mixture or assimilation.
Winter Solstice Celebration
The gradual return of light from the shortest and therefore darkest day of the year was considered a very great event among all the peoples of antiquity. From here, light begins to take over darkness.
The symbol seems really conducive to the celebration of the birth of Yeshua, the Savior of the world, the advent of the Light of the world coming on earth. We can say that the situation lends itself perfectly to the mixture of the two.
However, the Holy Scriptures do not state exactly when Yeshua was born, and most importantly, Elohim never gave instructions for anyone’s birthdays to be celebrated, including his own. It is not known why this subject is so taboo for Elohim and according to the original Jewish traditions, but it is so, like it or not. (undoubtedly in order to avoid self-idolatry by avoiding celebrating oneself).
Adding anything to the commandments as well as to the feasts is a problem in itself, but the situation is aggravated by the fact that
the day of the celebration of the vilest spirits was appointed to commemorate the birth of the Most Holy,
and what is more, by having preserved all the range of the original pagan symbols which are attached to it.
The real and deep root of this holiday is none other than people’s instinctive desire to cheer themselves up during such a dark period. Who has never been amazed by the kiosks and other urban decorations visible during the end-of-year celebrations? This is a truly heart-warming sight, we have to admit!
But before anyone makes the mistake of explaining their relationship to this feast by saying that Elohim purifies everything and that we have freedom in the Messiah to do whatever we want, let us instead reflect on the reasons why we are still stuck into this feast which obviously has long since turned into a real capitalist and consumer orgy.
We’re silent about the hidden side of Christmas, because we are eventually afraid of suffering more rejection from the world and from other Christians who are up to their necks in it? Perhaps for diplomatic reasons do we wish to preserve a good understanding and especially not to spoil a holiday which after all is still mainly celebrating the birth of the baby Jesus? Are we tired of always standing out thus we refrain ourselves from attacking a feast for fear of going against the Messiah and being accused of blasphemy? The question is exactly the same as in the case of the change from Shabbat to Sunday. See the article: Saturday / Sunday
Christmas: the feast of the Sun and other deities
Let’s see the main examples of foreign deities that have been celebrated at the end of December since the dawn of time:
Nimrod / Tammuz
Nimrod means: he will rebel. Nimrod, who was also called deer, claimed to be the Sun god. All sorts of orgies and parties seasoned with human sacrifices were organized in his honor, the “climax” of which was the sacrifice of children at the stake, from which, incidentally, the symbol of the Yule log comes.
Nimrod married his own mother Semiramis, to whom their son Tammuz was born on December 25. According to popular lore, Tammuz is the reincarnation of Nimrod, who eventually died in a forest where a pine tree grew from the remains of his body. In commemoration of his death, people went to meditate every December 25 at the foot of this fir tree where Tammuz brought them all kinds of gifts from the hereafter.
Nimrod and Tammuz are often depicted in arts as children sitting on the knees of their mother, Semiramis. It is directly from here that the representation of the Virgin Mary with the child Jesus comes.
Saturn
He was also celebrated on December 25. Here human sacrifices have been replaced by gladiatorial fights which outcome was often fatal. The Saturnalia lasted a whole month during which people indulged in drinking parties and various orgies. During this period, another holiday, the Juvenalia specifically celebrated youth, children and fertility. Meanwhile, the roman upper and ruling class was worshiping Mithras – the Persian sun god.
Saturn was often depicted with a scythe and a celestial chariot. Here, the draft animals were not reindeers as in the case of Santa Claus, but a giant snakes. Saturn, the Roman Chronos, was the principality who, according to mythology, devoured his own son to avoid him from eventually usurping his throne when becoming an adult. This is none other than
the symbol of Satan wanting to destroy humans as soon as possible in order to avoid them taking his and his demons’ places they left empty in Heavens before these ones find their path back to the Father through the Messiah Yeshua
The spirit of Saturn is directly related to Santa Claus (and Saint Nicholas) and still worshiped through him till today.
Other foreign deities
We could go on making a long list of all the names of foreign spirits which the various pagans associated with light and Sun and which are thus celebrated to this day during the month of December. Here, I will only mention a few from the best known examples:
Re/Ra/Oziris, Mithras, Helios/Dionysos, Sol Invictus, Lucia, …
The Roman attack on the Church, the real one, to which I often refer, when Constantine the Great, in his effort to assimilate everything, by mixing and thus by falsifying the original, here just incorporated the celebration of the anniversary of Yeshua in the greatest feast celebrated worldwide by all peoples.
Puritan American Christians banned the celebration of Christmas until the middle of the 19th century. The Reformation has already settled this question once in the past. Later, due to marketing and capitalist interests, the feast was restored in order to push the masses into consumption. This affected the Christian communities, which began to feel a kind of lack during this coldest period.
Do you still sacrifice your children to Moloch?
Millions of people trick their children into believing that there is a nice old man with a white beard and dressed in red clothes who distributes sweets and gifts as a reward to the children according to whether they have been good or not. They are brought before the image of an old “wise man” with a paternal face to whom they can write and even pray to in order to win his clemency. What happens in such a case, at the spiritual level?
What kind of idol do people get their own children used to?
Wouldn’t these practices be a way of teaching them how to make idols from an early age?
In addition,
what image does the child have of Elohim,
if he is encouraged so early to ask some spiritual authority for all kinds of nice gifts after playing the nice boy or girl in order to obtain a reward? Isn’t this what we call religiosity, self-righteousness or pharisaism? Earn your salvation based on your deeds?
Are we surprised that there are so many believers who still see the Savior as an idol, a “little” Jesus who distributes gifts that is to say blessings and money in the context of current adult Christian?
By getting our children used to this kind of idolatry, we are simply misleading them and developing in them a false image of Elohim and Yahushua. Wouldn’t this process just be
the sacrifice by fire of the spirit of our children on the altar of Moloch?!
As I mentioned in my other article on the prohibition of child sacrifice, every compromise with the world is a kind of spiritual sacrifice, the spiritual burning of our children, which can have serious repercussions on their adult life and their relationship with Elohim. See Do not follow the World
Notice the reaction of almost every small child when they are first placed on the lap of a man dressed as Santa Claus. They cry and scream in terror, many parents don’t even understand why. They think it’s because it’s an eccentrically dressed stranger. After a few years, the child grows up and gets used to the phenomenon, thus ending up crying. But what the children feel at first, in my opinion, is rather the foreign spirit that hides behind this masquerade and the spiritual sacrifice in which they do not want to take part and even less to be the victims. Sometimes we really have the impression that these poor little ones feel the unbearable heat of the flames trying to burn them from the inside.
May the Spirit of Yahuwah / Ruach HaKodesh break and cancel all spiritual curses that arise from these forced encounters in the lives of all humans who had to take part in this type of seance during their childhood!
More than 500 years after the start of the Reformation, today, as we are on the threshold of the last 7 years, we still have to persuade a large part of Christianity on the reasons to abandon the celebration of Christmas and other circuses of the kind. And while the antichrist prepares to strengthen his alliance with all the nations of the world, you do still go on preparing yourself for this kind of spiritual binge as a disciple of Jesus! (Cop 28, Abu-Dhabi – 2023 November 30 – December 12)
Does the question still arise?
May those who have no children not be deceived. Those who celebrate alone or with their partner, parents or friends do nothing more than worship Satan without even suspecting it. Whether atheists or believers, the situation is the same.
The enemy doesn’t care if you believe in him or not, Christmas remains his unholy holiday in any case.
The acceptance of such a circus strongly impacts the spiritual state of people who submit to it or who do not warn of its dangers. In the case of Christians, this kind of festivities strongly affects their personal relationship with the Savior and the Father and distort even further the already altered image they often have of Elohim.
Yahushua has no intention of purifying anything that is unclean and rotten. The soiled roots must be dug up, cut off and thrown into the fire. Unclean spirits act even when we don’t believe and think about them. We activate them and empower them by letting them act. But as in all things, the time of ignorance is tolerated by Yahuwah. However, after the recognition of a problem, when a new imposture is unmasked, we can easily slip into a state of conscious rebellion if we do not purify ourselves of it. This kind of conscious rebellion will sooner or later lead to dramatic consequences.
And if someone would find my words a little bit to harsh, I recommend that person to go on reading chapters 8 and 9 of the book of Ezekiel.
Let’s be wise and use these false feasts for the benefit of Yahushua
Christmas is only good for one thing:
to minister to unbelievers who no longer commemorate the birth and existence of Yahushua except on this cursed day.
We have the opportunity to commemorate the birth of our Savior Yahushua HaMashiah and all other events related to Him at any time. The holidays, whether true or false, are an opportunity for us to bear witness to the Savior that many do not yet know, or only in this rudimentary form. Because religious holidays, original or not, are the occasions when even non-believers question a lot of things concerning Life and thus have their hearts more open and better prepared to receive the Gospel.
Christmas can thus be the occasion to bear witness to the Messiah so that the following year it is no longer celebrated, because the person will also have entered the Heavenly Sanctuary: the Body of the Messiah, where the Feasts of the Eternal do also become Eternal.
In the preceding two articles, we delved into two of Satan’s primary tools aimed at thwarting Elohim’s plan. Overtaking and pushing to extremes are maneuvers serving the same purpose — none other than wasting our time. When Satan perceives an inability to divert the chosen ones from the right path, he endeavors to guide them into dead ends and detours, intending to steal time, energy, and induce infertility. These tactics hinder us from fulfilling our calling, and our spiritual growth is significantly impeded as a result.
Our previous two topics, OVERTAKING and PULLING TO THE EXTREMES, essentially both serve to RESTRAIN us.
The line of Cain against that of Seth, Ishmael against Isaac, and Esau against Jacob—all serve as repelling forces of the enemy with the aim of overthrowing the Plan of Elohim.
When Satan deceives believers into embracing EXTREMISMS and human dogmas emerge from certain truths, degrading the spiritual restoration into a false self-righteous effort, he once again impedes our progress. In some cases, he even brings us to a complete halt on the path of sanctification for the entire Body of Christ.
It is precisely these recurring stops or blockages that inspire many to persevere and continue the true race on the Narrow Path, ensuring that the torch of the Messiah is never extinguished.
Retention forces
Indeed, besides overtaking and pushing to extremes, there are additional factors that can impede our progress in ministry. These factors manifest when attempts are made to hold us back from moving forward.
Some individuals hinder our progress by clinging to our clothes or our ministry,
metaphorically representing an attempt to tether or anchor us, preventing us from moving forward freely.
When we waste our time evangelizing people who have no intention of submitting to Yeshua and turn away from their sins, but just wish to pour out their misery on us and are only looking for someone to listen to them and above all to support them in what they think is to be true. In such cases of apparent unwillingness to change and accept the only solution to their problems is to send them to a psychologist, for this type of mental health ministry is not the purview of Yahushua’s followers.
We encounter one of the earliest examples of this mechanism in the life of Abram when his nephew Lot clung directly to him after his call to come out from among his people. Nowhere do we read that Yahuwah allowed or even asked Abram to take anyone with him except his own men and cattle. You can learn more about Lot and Abraham in the article in the paragraph titled Lot the righteous.
Lot endangered Abram, his people, wealth, inheritance, and time, putting them all at great peril. Before separating from his uncle, Lot’s men even became a source of conflicts with those of Abraham.
This phenomenon does not only steal our time and energy but can easily lead to remorse, especially if we lack spiritual maturity. Due to a lack of spiritual vision, we engage in discussions and get entangled in the vain details of the lives of people who show no inclination to progress humbly toward the Messiah. Instead, they assail us with their miseries, and after a while, we find ourselves at a loss for what to say or advise them. This can lead to self-accusation for not measuring up and feeling to have failed in the call we received from our Master.
During street evangelism, it’s not uncommon to encounter situations where some individuals exceed the limits of patience and love towards our neighbors. There comes a point when another principle takes effect: the one of stepping forward and shaking the dust off our feet. Some may waste their time listening to people’s life stories and engaging in futile discussions about private details instead of emphasizing the global and final solution—REPENTANCE, followed by WATER and FIRE baptism.
In many cases, false humanism intertwines with the love of Christ. This is particularly true in the case of women. They are very inclined to stop and engage in lengthy conversations, squandering precious minutes with individuals who show little interest in Christ. Often, these individuals are seeking money or agreement with their theories on life and “God.” We must not allow those with no intention of embracing the path of submission to rob us of our time and energy. Meanwhile, those who would be open to the gospel pass by without the opportunity to connect with us because we are dealing with the wrong person. It is crucial for us to quickly discern who the people of peace are, those whose hearts are prepared to hear and receive the Gospel, so that we may focus our efforts accordingly.
Similar to Abraham’s situation, we often find ourselves overwhelmed by the presence of individuals who obstruct and have no intention of progressing. It is our responsibility to look ahead, recognize, and focus on those who have the potential to truly become disciples like us.
Let us refrain from being entangled in these unnecessary false ministries and learn to disengage from them promptly, enabling us to redirect our efforts towards the genuine ones.
Just as a rescuer would not grab the clothing of a suicidal person wishing to jump out of a window, fearing the risk of being dragged down in his fall. We also must recognize that someone who is closed to the gospel is like a suicidal person. It’s often better to let them go in time.
Maintaining in a state of spiritual childhood
A prevalent hindrance in Christianity that significantly hinders the progress of many disciples is when individuals consciously or unconsciously remain under the authority of their spiritual fathers. It is huge problem when Christians continue to rely on the teachings of the same person or persons for years, even when they themselves should have become teachers for their own spiritual children long ago. This pattern reveals a significant problem. Constant dependence on others prevents individuals from stepping into roles as servants or fathers to others. Many churches and assemblies, often unintentionally, operate on a model resembling to Catholicism, where a handful of pastors endlessly teach hundreds or even thousands of people. Thus the little “vaticans” are still formed with their little “popes” surrounded by their “little altar boys”.
I discuss this subject in more details and draw attention to the solution to this scourge in several of my articles: e.g. The Acts of the Disciples
Other examples of BRAKES
The list of spiritual hindrances that impede our progress in ministry, sanctification, and on the Narrow Path could be extensive. In this article, I’ve introduced some of the most common ones I’ve encountered in recent years.
I encourage all readers to share in the comments the challenges that have broken or are still breaking them in their own lives as disciples. By doing so, we can collectively dismantle various schemes and support each other in evolving at the right pace on our paths of sanctification.
Let’s continue the discussion in the comments below.
In the previous article, we saw that the enemy can hinder our progress on the Narrow Path by using the tool of falsification and overtaking in order to prevent the fulfillment of the true events/blessings of Yahuwah.
He is thus able to hinder or even thwart our race towards the goal with an additional strategy which is none other than to
DEVIATE our trajectory to the right or left in order to push us to the EXTREMITIES
It is through the process of the Reformation that we can once again observe the functioning and the harmful consequences of this demonic work.
Dualism and Cold War
One of Satan’s best tools to deceive mankind is undoubtedly DUALISM. He divides and then create animosity between the parties. With each step that mankind makes in history, he offers two camps: The one of INSUFFICIENCY and The one of EXAGGERATION. Communism vs. Capitalism, Left vs. Right, Anarchists vs. Fascists, etc. History has showed us lots of them.
Beginning with ROME, several great empires of the world have succeeded in preserving their power on the basis of this principle which is: “DIVIDE AND RULE”.
When the time comes for the restoration of a TRUTH that arises in the hearts of certain believers and Satan sees that he cannot prevent its fulfillment, he sometimes also chooses the tactic of letting things happen and not of getting ahead of them. He stops for a moment and allow things to go on their way. He let people get out of churches causing divisions so that the renewed believers can start their own new movements and churches.
Then, using the run-up force of these renewed christians approaching the middle path, he suddenly comes up from behind and gives them a good kick in the back in order to swing them into the other extreme so that they would not remain spiritually balanced.
Because when a split occurs, accusations, exclusion, disputes, cursing, damnations and even physical persecutions often begin. In any case, those who want to be renewed are designated as heretics, rebels against “God” and are damned by those who remain in the previous spiritual state. These accusations greatly wound and weaken those who desire nothing more than to pursue the path of sanctification in obedience to the Spirit of the Messiah.
It is precisely these wounds that the enemy uses to reintroduce human domination instead of the exclusive guidance of the Holy Spirit, thus creating a mixed spirituality among the freshly reformed ones.
The wound is transformed into hatred, then hatred breeds war, then from the war arise a constant need to justify oneself. This self-justification throws a human veil over what was originally coming from the Spirit. Thus the new reforms become dogmas which are managed by human wills and no longer by the action of the Spirit of Elohim. Moreover, little by little we begin to grant those reforms a disproportionate importance and sometimes even making them a conditions for Salvation.
Reforms become dogmas, dogmas become conditions of Salvation.
Here come into play all kinds of excess and all sorts of unbiblical Christian phenomena and functionings. This condition affects the members of the communities from which these renewed believers come, thus acting as a confirmation that they were right after all. This freezes them even more in their state of spiritual deficiency which also adds to the extremism of the other camps in a never ending whirl. The differences become more and more extensive and virulent, generating a spiritual chasm that goes on increasing like an infernal spiral.
External witnesses seeing this situation, non-believers, often have no choice but to side with one side or the other and take part in the fighting. Or, what happens more often is that they simply choose to stay in the world because they see that something went really wrong in the Christian world. This is how we prevent many people from repenting and converting to Yahushua HaMashiah.
Some examples of these dualistic extremisms:
Without further comment or explanation, let’s examine some of these extremes. The list is not complete, and for better illustration, it does not contain exclusively Christian tendencies and camps.
Perhaps this will help many people in determining where they stand in relation to the only right and middle path – which is Yahushua HaMashiah – and where it is worth stopping, perhaps turning back or moving on – always bearing in mind that even the truth is distorted by the enemy.
Since the spiritual state of a person is too complex to be considered and analyzed in two dimensions, we must pay attention to the fact that we can be affected in several categories at the same time, so that we can deviate from the steady state of the Holy Spirit to more directions.
Overheated Charismatics /Anti-Charismatics
Gospel of Prosperity / Gospel of Austerity
Tongues Speakers / Prophetizers
Fans of Jews / Anti-Semites
Rightists / Leftists
Republicans / Democrates
Legalists / Antinomists (libertarians)
Doctrine of the stern and ruthless “God” / Doctrine of the ever-loving and all-forgiving “God”
Those making witchcraft from the Last Supper / Those reducing It to a mere symbol
Sabbatists / Sunday Christians
It must be said that the devil always hides in half-truths. So, most of the time,
the opposing camps clash on the basis of all biblical, but apparently contradictory truths
The best tool for generating these disputes are those of Paul’s statements that are seemingly contradictory and often difficult to interpret. These are the favorite Bible verses of the enemy that he is using in order to divide the Body of Messiah.
The solution is not to nullify the arguments of one side for the benefit of the other, but both parties must recognize that something is wrong with them as well and accept it in humility in order to settle the problem before Yahuwah, in Yahushua HaMashiah. We must take what is true from one another and leave all our false doctrines. This is how a convergence can begin, not by accepting the differences, but by being freed from human excesses by being put back under the full guidance of the Spirit of the Messiah.
Because even ecumenism is such a false overtaking, which instead of working on true unity, where, cleansed of all impurity, we find ourselves in one Holy Spirit, does nothing other than mix everything in order to dilute and finally dissolve the truth.
Today, symbolically, I am posting this article on November 11. May there finally be an Armistice Day also in the Body of the Messiah.
On the great chessboard of the History of Salvation, unlike a common game of chess, we already know in advance the outcome and the winner of the game. Even if the enemy knows that he will end up losing, the challenge for him is to involve as many pawns as possible in his loss. If he can’t win, his only objective remains to cause as much damage as possible and to ensure that as few people as possible participate in the King’s victory.
Our goal as followers of Yeshua is to stay alive on the chessboard and help our fellow pawns to remain on the board with us till the end of the game.
In the next three articles I would like to describe and expose some of the basic tools/tricks that the enemy uses to deceive us, so that even if he fails to take the deceived souls with him in every case, that he may at least hinder their functioning and effectiveness during the fight. By functioning, I mean when the fulfillment of a believer’s ministry is hindered by something, thus unable to fully serve his fellow man because some foreign teaching, phenomenon or spirit interferes in his life, vision and heart.
There are several tools of deception. We will examine three of them, which are important because they are rarely treated, despite being the most dangerous and effective weapons in the hands of the enemy.
OVERTAKING
One of the oldest diversionary phenomena and tools used by the enemy is to anticipate and imitate the plan of Elohim. We may often encounter this phenomenon or strategy in our own discipleship journey, when the enemy offers us blessings, situations, or people that appear to be from Elohim, but which actually sooner or later turn out to be mere counterfeits with no other purpose than to divert our attention and replace the real ones that Elohim has in store for us. Like falsified shadows of the real ones to come.
1 – Descendant of Seth / Descendant of Cain
After Cain killed his brother Abel, the line of Elohim was interrupted for a time until Seth was sent to replace him.
In Cain’s genealogy, we can observe the names of individuals who are very similar or almost identical to those who appear later in the line of Seth. These people were born well in advance and moreover almost in the same order. Cain himself preceeded Seth’s grandson Cainan. As Seth was much younger than Cain, his descendants were also born a few years “late” compared to their false foreshadowings.
A separate study could be devoted to the meanings of these different names – given that their roots and the Hebrew letters which compose them are very close – as well as to the reasons which may well have pushed the enemies to want to expropriate these names and the spiritual function that these characters must have fulfilled. But here, we will limit ourselves for the moment only to drawing attention to this diabolical stratagem.
2 – ISAAC and ISHMAEL
We have also seen instances where, due to disbelief in the promises of Elohim, people take action, come up with ideas, and then implement them thus seriously interfering with the original plan. In this way, the enemy operates on people’s unbelief to push them to anticipate Yahuwah’s plan and thus give Satan the right to interfere in the will of Elohim.
This is how Ishmael was born before Isaac who is until this day the source of a multitude of very deep problems for the chosen people. Indeed, Sarah and Abraham, not having had enough faith to believe in the fact that they themselves would have a child at such an advanced age, chose to turn to a surrogate mother in the person of Hagar.
Later we see the same human intervention that preceded and thus cancelled Yahuwah’s final act of deliverance, when Jacob and Rebecca, having panicked, reclaimed the blessing of the firstborn by deceiving the old Isaac.
3 – Birth of Jacob / Birth of Esau
As I explain in more detail in another article, Esau, as the envoy of the enemy, used his physical superiority over Jacob, the envoy of Elohim, already in the womb of their mother when he took Jacob’s place at the exit. The reason for the fight between the two children in Rebecca’s womb was the following: Esau had to go out first at all costs in order to expropriate the birthright of Jacob.
Yahuwah has an order, a law, which was already in force then, even in the pre-Mosaic period, according to which the inheritance of the family (both spiritual and material) mainly goes to the first born.
Satan always acts against Yahuwah by force and power.
Esau was predestined to appropriate the inheritance of Elohim in the visible world, so that he could rightfully claim before the people what Yahuwah originally intended for Jacob. Because we know from a later prophet that “I loved Jacob, I hated Esau” – Malachi 1:2-3
Thus, we understand better why Jacob grabbed his brother’s ankle when they were born, in order to signal to the outside world: “We will fix that later, my friend!”.
4 – Reform / Sect
During the process of the Reformation of the Church, similar attacks occurred on several occasions.
This is what happens when the enemy knows that the time has come for some reformation to take place. This is the case, for example, when the time comes to give up with all the pagan names of foreign deities – such as got/god/gad/gudan, theos/dios/deus/dieu/zeus/iesus/jesus, ishten/ishtar, etc., that are widely used to name the Almighty – and restore His original names Yahuwah/Yahushua/Yeshua and the title of Elohim through the ministry of the legitimate people inspired by Ruach HaKodesh/the Holy Spirit. Then sudently Satan comes and throws a grenade into the pile to blow it all up. This is the true identity of the sect of Jehovah’s Witnesses who pretend to restore the name of the Eternal, but at the same time try to destroy the image and the divine essence of the Messiah by reducing him to the rank of a “mere” archangel. They restore something essential and destroy an even greater one. Jehova, by the way, not really being the original name, but a masoretic Judaic distortion intended to ensure that the true name is not pronounced even inadvertently during the reading of the Torah.
Likewise, when he hinders the restoration of Shabbat/Saturday with denominations that mix this truth with several obviously false teachings.
These sects have no other purpose than to discredit the reforms in the eyes of believers of pure faith and intention in order to taint the truth with apparent and unacceptable lies so that most of the people will refuse the whole. Thus the rejection is made all along the line and the process of the reform is obstructed.
This is howReforms are taken out of the hands of the legitimate believers appointed by Elohim to carry out the restauration. They are taken away by the enemy and given to false prophets and church founders. These demonic puppets are contaminating the truth with false doctrines so that a large part of the Body of the Messiah would be disgusted with everything, even with what is true, with a view to hindering them on the path to sanctification.
It should be mentioned that we must not allow ourselves to fall into the error of not daring to say certain things out of our mouths, by fear of being identified as part of any of these false sects. This kind of attitude is a compromise with the enemy, a cowardly behavior wishing to avoid any conflict. If we discover a truth that had been stolen by the enemy and remain silent, we are consciously allowing the devil to hold the truth captive.
For satan, being the father of lies, always bases his lies on truths that he distorts in order to appropriate them by presenting them in a different and modified way: “Did Elohim really say: ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” Remember his first recorded appearance and sentence in the visible world, when He started from a truth, but exaggerated it by resorting to the tool of generalization replacing the word ‘That tree’ by ‘Any tree’.
4.1 Luther/other reformers
Maybe this will shock a lot of people, but in my opinion, Luther himself was such a preliminary false pawn on the chessboard, who was perhaps deployed before Calvin so that the enemy can start the counter-reformation right away through Martin L himself. Many know that Luther, in addition to his problems with demonic possessions, “re-Catholicized” several points that he himself had reformed a few years earlier. And if anyone is shocked by the statement that Luther was under demonic influence, I invite him to read his pamphlets on the Jewish People which tell a lot about the spiritual state of the man. There, you will find all kinds of spirits there, but certainly not the Spirit of Christ!
The recognition of the demonic spirit is not a condemnation, but a diagnosis, an indispensable condition for any possibility of healing. None of us today is going to heal him afterwards, only Yahuwah knows if he finally got healed, where he is, what he arranged, in time or not, it’s not up to us to decide or debate the question. However, since this unhealthy state of mind persisted throughout his career, its corrupting and destructive effects are still noticeable today. Thus, it would be highly useful to examine to what extent the otherwise clearly persistent Catholic roots in modern Protestant Christianity still stem from him. Although Luther was the first to oppose the concept of the institutional church, contemporary “renewed” Pentecostal and charismatic Christianity is still built on the model of the institutional church established by the roman catholics. He was furthermore the first in the history of the Reformation to draw attention to the absurdity of infant baptism, but towards the end of his career he revoked this reform on his own without any pressure from the Roman church or the emperor.
5 – The return of the Messiah – the coming of the Antichrist
The main and ultimate deception of this kind, will be when satan will appear in the form of the antichrist, in order to deceive humanity including part of Christianity, which awaits the return of the Messiah. He will do signs and wonders throughout the world, bringing down fire from the sky, and by some very convincing theological false teachings, he will also be able to deceive many even among the chosen ones. Many will believe that the Messiah finally had to return in a human body once again and not in the Spirit – in a Glorified body – according to the promise:
Yeshua HaMashiah will return the same way he went into heaven
It is also timely to deal with this latest deception and draw the attention of believers, because there are many signs that the false prophet and especially the antichrist himself are not simply and already in the world but we can also know their identity with great precision. Indeed, they are both in the visible world and are already very active for many years. The 7 years covenant is to be reinforced next month from the end of november to the beginning of december 2023 in Abu Dhabi.
What does all this teach us today?
For us, it is worth paying attention to this ancient evil strategy, because our fellow human beings often try to position themselves in this way and appropriate what is ours. We often experience during our journey of discipleship that false opportunities are offered to us, wrong doors are being opened in front of us which may appear to be the right ones. Those who have already faced the problem and managed to recognize the deception and not fall into the trap can testify to the great blessing that followed. However, for this we must ask for one of the most important fruit that can be given to us by the Holy Spirit.
The gift of discerning of spirits
And not only that of the spirits, but also of their diversionary strategies so that they can no longer deceive us.
In our country, too, there are such precursor servants and ministries claiming the title of Messianic Jews. They appeared earlier and preach ideas similar to ours in many aspects. They led many people on the right path but meanwhile did also began to administer their poison little by little, shrewdly and imperceptibly. All this until they end up publicly denying the blood of the Messiah, his sacrifice on the cross as well as any explanation concerning the reality of any concept of the Holy Trinity.
This Holy Trinity which naturally does not make three persons of the single Elohim, but which means that Elohim although being ONE, appears to us in three forms having very distinct roles as Father, Son and Ruach HaKodesh. See the article and the video: Holy Trinity or Triple Holiness?on the website and youtube.
We must be aware that the next steps of reformation/restoration must be sought and taken until the Final Reform is accomplished by Yeshua HaMashiah himself when He returns to begin His 1000 year reign here on earth.
We also should keep in mind that Reformation is nothing but a return to the original form of discipleship, as it first appeared in Jerusalem in Jewish circles at Shavuot (Pentecost) as described in the book of the Acts of the Apostles.
Going back to Jewish roots also carries great dangers. When Jewish teachers who believe in Yeshua are also tempted to fall into the poison of rabbinical judaism. This same poison that veiled the eyes of most of the Jews so that they could not recognize their Messiah in Yeshua till today. Then, mixed with this poison and defiled, they go and teach their Jewish and non-Jewish brethren. We have seen that this kind of evil mechanism often leads to the outright denial of the Messiah.
So let’s not get overtaken. And if it should happen anyway, let us dare to take up the message that is ours and reform what has been defiled beforehand by preaching it again and again, until it is purified by the grace of the Messiah so that it can be restored for good.
For many it is no longer a question that the time has come when something must be done with the originally revealed names of the Eternal and the Messiah. This is one of the important and essential turning point of the restoration, or let us rather speak of the reform.
Many people also know that Hebrew letters have numerical value. Thus, each word and each letter present in the Holy Scriptures has its place and its very precise weight. It is forbidden to remove or add to them, because they form a perfect unit. This unity is a truly powerful source of life and blessing to all who read and follow it. Thus the slightest modification or retrenchment automatically has harmful spiritual repercussions on the people who act in this way.
It is also obvious that the father of lies, Satan, falsifies everything. Thus, when translating the Holy Scriptures into foreign languages, one of his main objectives was to mistranslate the texts and particularly the names of the Eternal, of His Anointed and sometimes even of His Spirit in order to distort and plunder them of their content and their spiritual power. The enemy is thus trying to infiltrate the very heart of Salvation in order to blow everything up by doing a kind of nuclear fission.
YHWH / יהוה / YaHuWaH
The rejection of the name also dates back to rabbinical Judaism. Judaism emerged during the Babylonian captivity when the so-called oral laws were formulated by men still considered to this day as the wise men of the nation. The second commandment, that we shall not take his name in vain, also did not escape this distorting work and in order to ensure that this commandment was never broken, they decided that YHWH should never be spoken again. The name of our Elohim, Yahuwah, was thus simply erased from the collective consciousness. Other expressions are used as substitutes when reading the Torah. This is how we can hear words like: HaShem (The Name) and Adonai (Lord).
One can find many teachings on the internet on how to pronounce his Name, why it is important to return to it urgently in light of the prophecies and the spiritual impact it has in our lives. Maybe I’ll explain all of this myself in more detail later. Now, however, before we fall into the trap of going back to the letter and developing a new theology or denomination,
we must first and foremost refer the matter to the exclusive guidance of the Holy Spirit/Ruach HaKodesh
May this article be in his hands, from its formulation to its reading. May He guide us to know what to do and how to use his original names, lest we fall into vain human efforts lacking the deep spiritual content of the topic. Let us never restore anything for self-interest, or to make ourselves appear to be better Christians. But let’s restore things in order to walk in obedience on the path to sanctification. We must stop the enemy continuing to ridicule us by twisting/stealing to the very names of the Most High.
Everyone knows very well that the spoken word has its weight in the spiritual world. How could it be otherwise with the names of the Almighty?!
The Hebrew letters also have a numerical value. Even the Jewish sofers – the copyists of the Torah, at the slightest error, they simply destroy the entire sheet or even the entire scroll and start copying from scratch. Each word has a numerical value, which, like a kind of perfect mathematical equation, brings the Scriptures to life.
The names of Elohim are those which contain the most this vivifying power
therefore, if we alter or replace them, we prevent them from bringing their beneficial effects.
In the Tanakh (Old Testament) we come across the name Yahushuah several times, which has been transliterated in English as Joshua-Jehoshua. Both names appear as one name in the original translation: יהושע (YHSHWH – YaHuSHuah).
YESHUA
He actually received this Name from his earthly mother at the time of his birth, on the instruction of the Archangel Gabriel. Therefore, in this given context, it was intended that He would save His people from their sins, as we read in Matthew 1:21. However, for us who have been born again in the Messiah and received the Ruach HaKodesh, this name should no longer be used in its future form, because the promise has already been fulfilled in us.
ה
It seems incomprehensible to me that anyone could have had the idea of removing this letter ה (hey) from the Name of our Saviour which was later revealed to us! Especially since we know from the case of Abraham that this same letter ה, was precisely the one Abram received in the middle of his name as the sign of his Covenant with Yahuwah. What could have made anyone think that
this same letter ה (hey) can be removed from the name of the SAVIOUR?
This is how YaHuSHuah finally remained simply Yeshua, a name that only appeared once in this form in the whole Old Testament and who’s meaning is He Will Save. I think that those people who does not know Him yet, can indeed call Him this way and we also can use this precise form of His name when talking about him to people we are evangelizing. But for us, who are born again in the Messiah and received Ruach HaKodesh, the Holy Spirit, this name shouldn’t be pronounced in its future form since the promise had already been accomplished in us.
At his birth he was given the name Yeshua, and when he appears before the heavenly court after having died on the cross when he is dressed in garments defiled by the sins of the world, in accordance with Zechariah’s vision, he is called Yahushua, because: It is done! Here, we are no longer in the promise, in the future, but in eternal, constant, present time: Yahuwah saves and has saved. Here Salvation takes effect and shifts into eternal mode.
Each Hebrew letter not only has a numerical value, that is, a mathematically calculable weight when it is pronounced, but it also has a meaning of its own. Thus the letter ה means: Behold – Sign – Covenant. This way His original name was simply shortened from the following meaning:
HERE is the Lamb of Elohim, which is the SIGN, that is to say the seal, of the COVENANT.
ש
Another important and interesting letter that appears in the name YHWH to form the name of the Saviour is the letter ש (SHin). Among other things, the meaning of this letter is “destruction”. The necessity of the death of the Son is indicated by ש so that the ה – the Covenant – could take effect. But ש does also serve as an abbreviation for one of Yahuwah‘snames: El Shaddai (The Almighty), as it is often found on mezuzot at Jewish homes.
How much more expressive and complete is YaHuSHuah‘s name than when we simply utter his name as the promise of a future saviour. Because indeed, He is the Saviour, but he is also the Sign of the Covenant by the Blood of the immolatedLamb and moreover, HE is also ONE with the Father, being El Shaddai himself.
YaHuShuah, the name of the Lamb of Elohim must necessarily merge with the name YHWH, because its meaning is: YaHuWaH Saves.
But to go a bit further and beyond Yeshua which is a correct form although incomplete in some cases. A further big question is: How can anyone think that the names He gave us to name himself can be translated into all kinds of languages, that is to say distorted and replaced by expressions often derived from the names of pagan spiritual principalities such as Zeus for example? Where the names of (Theos/Dios/Deus – Je-Sus/Heil–Zeus) are all coming from. And we’ll soon see how problematic is also the word God used by the English and German speaking world.
Nobody translates people’s name when they go abroad. This would be considered as a lack of respect of the other and a source of vexation. If we are able to understand how important is to be respectful toward’s our neighbour’s name, why do we still not see how much more this is important in the case of Yahuwah our Elohim!?
However, there are two instances in the Bible where foreigners erased Jewish names with their own seals:
The first was Joseph, one of the main precursors of Yahushua who received the name of Zaphnath-Paaneah from a pharaoh who, although being very friendly towards the Jews, only knew Elohim in a very superficial way.
The other was the later Babylonian power, which after having taken the Jews captive – following the destruction of the Temple and the taking away of its vessels by dedicating them to their own pagan gods – changed the names of Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah to Belteshaszar, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego.
The same imperial spirit, let us call it Egyptian or Babylonian, but who is essentially the Roman daughter of these latter ones, simply replaced Elohim by Theos (God) and Yahushua by iesus, in order to continue to honor their former main idols through them.
It is interesting to note that the work of falsification did not stop there. For the worship of their other lesser idols also continues, but in their case it is perpetuated through the use of Jewish names after which they have been renamed. This is how Aphrodite and Venus became the Virgin Mary, Mars, Saturn, Hermes and the other Greco-Roman divinities were canonized as “saints” and thus inherited the Jewish names of the main characters of the Bible: (Saint Paul, Peter, John and the others).
Here we can see the process where the righteous ones are paganized and where the pagan idols are “hebraized.”
Jesus
It was a real shock to me and I was almost discouraged from continuing the ministry when I discovered that even this widely use form of the name of the Saviour contained the seal of the antichrist from the time of the first translations of the Gospel.
Because you may be familiar with this theory that the translation of YaHuSHuah‘s name in Greek is nothing more than the greeting “heil zeus“. At first sight, this seems a bit forced to me, especially since those who promote this theory base their explanations on the Spanish pronunciation of Jesus (with the Spanish strongly pronounced Jota). However, when the Greeks invented the term Jesus, the Spanish language did not even exist. But anyway the phenomenon is indeed suspicious enough to give a serious chance that this is not a coincidence, and knowing the style of deceptions the enemy often uses, I can easily imagine that he is also hiding behind this as well.
This good human intention which tries to bring the name of the Saviour closer to the lips, that is to say to the mother tongue of the new converts, is used by the devil to defile and blaspheme by his own names the Name above all names. As the saying goes:
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Satan, among others, has mastered the art of using human goodwill and pure intentions to hinder the plan of YaHuWaH, of Redempting humankind by becoming YaHuSHuah.
Greeks did not keep the -wah ending of Yahushuah, since the -a ending is the sign of the feminine form. Greek and also Latin language words ending with -a are generally feminine. Thus they could really feel having a good reason to make some change in it, since they did not want to associate Yeshua to feminity, but the problem was that the masculine ending form added -us, is directly coming from the name of Zeus, who was the quintessential male being the father of all gods, the first male of the world according to their former beliefs. This resulted in the birth of a name whose sound fully includes the name of their zeus when pronounced: iesus. Something that should have seemed just as problematic to them as the original form and its feminine connotation. But this little detail did not really bother them quite obviously.
Moreover, the matter does not end here. Because when the Greek translation, iesus, was later adopted by the Latin speakers of the Roman Empire, they simply kept it without any modification. Here the question arises as to how a Latin-speaking believer could have had the guts to keep this name in this form and pronounce it when speaking of the Messiah, since the word sus in Latin was an existing and common expression which meaning is none other than pigor swine!?
And if all this wasn’t convincing enough why it is problematic to refer to the Messiah with this Greek word and all the names derived from it, it is also worth mentioning that
according to the Greek gematria, the numerical value of the letters that make up the root of the word Iesus is nothing but 666.
More precisely, the name Jesus is articulated arround the three Greek consonants which result in this number. It was precisely these three consonants that John used in the book of revelations when announcing the number of the beast: χξϛ (chi xi and stigma). Later on, vowels had been aded to these three letters and also the graphism of greek letters had been modified through time in order to reach the final result Ἰησοῦς, as you can see it in the greek texts. It is thus very hard to see the resemblance with the original satanic root.
A separate study could be written about how the antichrist appropriated the role and person of our Savior to endow Him with his own false name? It can also be expected that when the Antichrist finally reveals himself within a few weeks or at most a few little years, he will argue with this well-prepared phenomenon in order to deceive many into saying that the real Messiah, Yahushua of Nazareth who walked the earth 2000 years ago and who was renamed “Jesus”, was actually the prophesied “antichrist” since having the number of the beast included in his name, and from now on he is of course the “real” one. We can eventually also prepare for this kind of deceptive propaganda as well.
I know it is shocking to read such things and that it is almost unacceptable. We would almost start to get angry with the Almighty for having let the enemy steal even His names from us! Why did He let the devil go so far in falsification?
But we could also turn against ourselves. Let us not fall into the temptation of accusing or even condemning ourselves for having been using impure names so far, let us instead recognize once again that we must look forward, not backward. There is a time of ignorance and there is a deception into which we have all fallen in spite of ourselves.
Certainly we have been deceived, but we were not aware of it and our devotion was pure and that is why it worked anyway.
Many of us have been baptized in the name of Jesus. Yet, we are indeed born again and have received the Holy Spirit and all the gifts resulting from it together with the promise of the Eternal Life. We even healed people many times in the name of Jesus and it perfectly worked! But why then, if the name would really be false? Because we called him so out of ignorance, but in the bottom of our hearts He is the true Messiah to whom we said “yes” and whom we invoked and thus who we truly met.
It is important to emphasize this fact, because the time of Grace is still ongoing. And I am sorry to see once again, that those who preach the return to the original names of the Eternal do often fall into the other extreme. They do fall in the trap of accusing, or at least insinuating, that those who use the names derived from Zeus: Theos and Jesus are the sons of perdition. This condemnation is a serious sin and even a worse attack on His Name than the use of the falsifications against which these people raise their voices. We must preach the truth with love and not execute the dying ones before time.
Of course, in the other hand, if following the recognition of the need to restore the original names, someone persists in the use of the fake ones, then a new era will open for such rebels which will gradually shorten the time of grace granted to them. Thus, we must draw everyone’s attention to this danger.
Let us rejoice that the time of Grace still lasts. Let’s be happy that Ruach HaKodesh goes on guiding us. Let us give thanks for always having the possibility of asking to have an increasingly humble and obedient heart so that we can accept even what may still seem unacceptable today. Let us be happy of still having the true names available to us so that we can live with and by them.
And now let’s ask the question in our hearts to the Holy Spirit: Does the Eternal really want us to come back to His original names again? Because if He is inviting us from within to do so and if we still do not make the right decision, then very different and less glorious times will be opened up in our lives.
Elohim / אלוהים
Instead of ELOHIM, the names of false elohim(s) are used in every language.
Let’s take a look at a few languages of the world, in which billions of people to this day address the Almightyusing totally differentexpressionsto the one He first revealed to us: Elohim.
Theos / Zeus
Among the epistles included in the New Testament that were actually originally written in Greek, we can find today the term Theos instead of Elohim. This is very likely a later transcription of the original term or title. When the texts began to be copied, the term Theos, easier to interpret for the Greeks, came in as a substitute the original word used by Paul. It is not necessary to have in-depth theological, historical or linguistic knowledge to recognize the origin of this term: Theos–Zeus.
From here comes the later Latin form Deus which by transliteration has become Dios/Dieu, etc. in languages derived from Latin, including French and Spanish.
The origins of the two following names are not really clear and are much more difficult to figure out. However, whether either theory turns out to be the correct one, that would make their use quite problematic.
ǥuđán / God
The English and German word God/Got could come from two different places: First we have the Babylonian deity called Gad who was also worshiped by some Jews during the captivity and which is mentioned in the book of Isaiah in chapter 65.
But according to some opinions, God may simply come from the Germanic people of the same name, the Goths. For in the Germanic world, where the concept of übermensch (superior race) was always prominent long before the Nazis, the Gothic tribes were considered superior among the all the other Germanic tribes. Indeed, the Goths were the Germanic superheroes, the strongest warriors considered invincible and therefore endowed with a practically divine reputation. In a strongly anthropocentric English-speaking world where people are mostly descending from Anglo-Saxon/Danish-Viking thus Germanic tribes, it can easily happen that God is quite simply the expression of the man who elevates himself to the rank of Elohim. At the time of the adoption of Christianity, this term designating the supreme spiritual authority, was adopted to name Elohim, the Almighty.
Isten / Ishtar
The Hungarian word Isten (pronounced ichten, equivalent of God) is perhaps the most interesting and also the most dramatic of all at the same time. Here again, the origin of the word is not very clear. According to some linguists, the word comes from the Persian language, others say that it is Finno-Ugric and still others claim that it is of Sumerian origin, and means “ancestral“, “one“, or “unique“. So far, it wouldn’t be such a big deal, since we are really talking about the Elohim who is Ancestral, One and Unique.
However, the sound of this term is surprisingly close to another phenomenon also of Persian and Sumerian origin, which is none other than Ishtar.
She was considered the goddess of love, fertility, sometimes also of war, identified with Venus, the morning star. Among the Canaanites and Mesopotamians, she is better known as Astarte. Its symbol is the eight-pointed star. She is a deity who was held in such reverence even in Babylonia that the very gate through which the Jewish people entered the city during the captivity bore her name. The remains of this gate are still kept in a museum in Berlin, right next to Satan‘s throne by the way.
Unfortunately, this vecinity with the devil is not only limited to the berliner museum. Another disturbing phenomenon can be observed if we write this word in Hebrew: אישטן, form almost identical not only in its sonority, but also in its spelling with the name of שָׂטָן (STN).
Even if the situation was not as serious as just described, and the resemblance to Satan’s name would just be a mere coincidence, the almost identical sounding of the words isten and isthar raises the question of whether is it wise to use this term when talking about the Creator?
Moreover, it is not surprising to observe such a phenomenon in the case of a people whose first decisions when their State has been founded more than 1000 years ago, was precisely to offer the country to the Virgin Mary. From here on, giving Elohim the name of a female deity is not surprising. After all, Ishtar was not only a female deity, but was also called the queen of heaven. According to historians she was also named Astarte by other peoples, but she is also a direct predecessor of Aphrodite in Greece and then of Venus in Rome, herself later renamed Virgin Mary by the Christianized Romans (coming form the original name Miriam, the Jewish mother of YahuShuah).
Allah / Elah
It is interesting to note that in the case of Allah, quite the opposite happens. Because it comes directly from Elah the contracted hebrew form of Elohim taken over by Arabic which, as we know, is also a Semitic language. This name had been adopted by the arabs in times where neighter Islam nor Christianity existed yet. But the Arabs indeed already existed and many worshiped the true and only Elohim, as we can see in the case of Jethro (Yitro) father-in-law of Moses. To this day, Arab or Coptic Christians use Allah, this abbreviated and Arabized version of Elohim as a word to designate God. It is therefore not the name of a foreign deity who would have been slammed on Elohim, but quite the contrary. Here, it is the original name which is taken over by a foreign spirit. Thus Baal reveals himself to a false prophet by usurping the abbreviated version Elah and simply calls himself Elohim by billions of people.
Ex-boyfriends?
All these cases show that there are still basic things that still need to be restored in the Church. Whether we accept it or not, even if it is shocking, we must face the fact that:
the Bride uses the names of her exes to call upon her Bridegroom!
And I expressed myself with great restraint. Because the former idols are not just ex-boyfriends, but pure pimps. What name should be given to a wife who names her husband after his old macks in your opinion? Can we still speak of Wife? Or is she still a prostitute or at least in a mixed spiritual state, in adultary? Could this fundamental phenomenon explain the reason for the pitiful state of Christendom? Could this not be the root of all deviations from the straight path? Because the Latin word curba means deviation/curve. This word has been taken up in the Slavic languages as well as in Hungarian in the form kurva which means prostitute in its more vulgar version. This refers to many biblical prophecies where Israel and Judah were referred to by similar adjectives by their Husband Elohim. Today, there is a third woman, the Bride (Ephraim or the Nations) who, let’s face it, is not much better than the two others.
In the interest of real and effective reform, we should perhaps go back to basics so drastically:
In what terms do we speak of the Creator, the Almighty, the Eternal, our Savior and even somtimes of his Spirit?
We are not talking about Jewish roots here. Still not. Much more serious and important things still need to be restored, which go far beyond the Jewish roots and compared to which these are practically insignificant.
Because there was not yet a single Jew on earth when mankind had already been calling on the names of Yahuwah and Elohim for a long time. Then the Jew came with all his self-righteousness and man-made artificial laws and veiled the name of YHWH. And this false tradition has been endorsed and perpetuated by Christianity until today.
And now, as a Jew believing in the Messiah YaHuSHuah of Nazareth, should I also have to teach Jewish roots in the name of our Savior by continuing to use distorted or alienated terms such HaShem/Adonai and even God, Dieu or Ishtar as many others do? No thanks, I do not want to take part in that kind of circus anymore!
What would you say if your wife/partner/girlfriend called you by the name of one of her ex-boyfriends? How long would you endure such an offence before sending her back where she came from? This is where we see how incredibly patient Yahuwah is compared to us.
On our part, however, let us recognize the problem and do not grieve His Spirit any further by behaving like harlots and not like a worthy and obedient Bride.
For the Bridegroom is at the door. Is there any oil in your lamp? If so what kind of oil is it? With what names have you anointed the Son and the Father? Because the names we give are anointings and carry deep meanings. And the Spirit of Yahuwah/Elohim/Yahushuah did not authorize anyone to point to Him with these profane words. Realize that there are still some wise virgins who can still give you real oil today in case you happen to still be part of the camp of the foolish ones.
For when the Day comes, it is the one you have called on the name who will appear to take you. (Romans 10:13). May no one have any bad surprise at that moment!
Did Paul also use Theos?
The question may immediately arise for many: why would the term Theos instead of Elohim appear in the original Greek New Testament if there were actually problems with this term on a spiritual level? This expression appears throughout the epistles! So if Paul didn’t have any conscience issues as a result of using this term, why should we have them today?
Could this phenomenon indicate that the New Testament was ultimately not written in Greek, that the documents presented until now as original are only later translations? Several biblical scholars have emerged in recent years who claim that the original text was written in Hebrew or Aramaic and that the Greek is only a later translation. This would explain why Elohim could transform into Theos.
For my part, I am convinced that some parts of the New Testament were indeed written in Hebrew, but others were really written from the start in Greek. Just as the promise of Salvation was transferred for a time from the original Hebrew people to the Greeks, that is, to other Nations.
I am convinced that the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and John could not have been originally written in any language other than Hebrew.
After all, the Gospel was addressed first and primarily to the Jews. It was therefore necessary that it was published for the first time in the world in the language of the Jews. Furthermore, these people were not known for their knowledge of Greek. They were simple fishermen who probably did not know the language of the oppressive power to such a level that they would have been able to write such far-reaching stories in a language alien to them. This is true even if Matthew and Mark came to some extent from Hellenized Jewish families, as their first names attest.
Luke, on the other hand, was Greek, a converted proselyte. His Gospel could very well have been written in Greek from the outset, since it was not only his mother tongue, but at that time, due to the rejection of the Messiah by a large part of the Jews, Elohim had already begun to transfer the relay of the History of Salvation in the hands of the “Greeks”, that is to say the Gentiles, for a certain time until their number is reached. Thus, and in a symbolic way, by formulating one of the Gospels in Greek, Elohim was able to send a strong signal to humanity – and for Jews especially-, indicating that from now on the door will also be open to non-Jews.
Paul, unlike his evangelist predecessors, was a very educated and cultured person. Not only was he a Roman citizen, but he also spoke the language of the eastern part of the empire, namely Greek, perfectly well. Let’s just think rationally for a moment: When such a man begins to write letters to assemblies whose members are mostly non-Jewish and whose mother tongue is Greek, there is no doubt that he is not going to start writing to them in Hebrew, thinking that the brothers and sisters will manage with online translation software or someone else interpreting on site to decode his messages. Adherents of the theory that the New Testament was written exclusively in Hebrew should think a little about these few small details. It is obvious that he will use as a mediator the language that they all speak and understand in common.
Therefore, the two theories that the New Testament was written only in Greek or only in Hebrew are two extremes that must be rejected. The truth again lies somewhere in between.
Thus, I believe that most of the New Testament was originally written in Greek, but not only in Greek.
However, the manuscripts where we find the term Theos instead of Elohim in the original Greek must necessarily be later transcriptions.
Let us remember how Paul reacted when, after entering Lycaonia with Barabbas, where the inhabitants, as soon as they experienced the miracles and signs performed by the two apostles, called them gods and identified Paul with Hermes and Barabbas to Zeus, and prepared to sacrifice animals in their honor. What was the reaction of Paul then?: Well, he then tore his clothes in front of them as a sign of mourning. He destroyed his only possession, his only means of protection, which protected him from the sun, rain, wind, sandstorms and evening frosts, because pagans, therefore young children in spirit, through ignorance and in good faith, instinctively wanted to elevate to the divine rank the people who did good to them.
How could a man so zealous and disgusted by anything related to paganism replace Elohim with a term that is clearly derived from Zeus?
It is completely stupid and irrational to imagine that such a righteous and faithful servant of the Messiah as Paul would ever allow the primary title of the Almighty to be degraded to such a level, just in order to please new converts.
From the moment you recognize the true Creator and Redeemer, you have the duty and obligation to use the names that He Himself was willing to reveal to you from the start. Man has never been given the power to decide for himself what titles and names he can afford to use regarding the Creator. The animals were the ones that Adam was allowed to name and baptize according to his choices and certainly not the Father.
A spiritual child can name the Father according to the purity of his heart whatever he wants as long as he does it out of love and especially out of ignorance. But as we grow in spirit, we must gradually abandon all our childish babblings and behave as responsible and obedient adults as a sign of respect to our Father.
Therefore, everyone should know how old they are in spirit. This message is a call to those who are spiritually mature and stable enough to understand the meaning of the original names so that they can use them truthfully while abandoning the false ones they have been using so far. I would like to encourage you to openly and courageously accept what you feel from within, even if you know that the countercurrent is very powerful, that very few people will congratulate you, and that brothers may even begin to persecute or reject you for reverting to the original names.
I do not condemn those who use God and other such terms, if they do so out of ignorance and with a child’s heart. But like all other laws, the time must come when, on the orders of Ruach HaKodesh , the use of the original names must also be restored.
Yahwé
In conclusion and as further encouragement, it is worth mentioning that a process has emerged over the years whereby millions of believers across the world are returning to the use of the name Yahweh.
Although I think there is no doubt that the original pronunciation is Yahuwah, we are still saying the same thing, since the 4 consonants, those that have a numerical value and thus weight in the spiritual realm, are pronounced in both cases. Yahuweh, Yahuwah, the difference is really just one final vowel. Above all, let’s not make a fuss of it in a stubborn and Pharisaical way. I am happy when I hear them pronounce the Name in this way.
Thanks to Elohim, not only are we not alone, but for the majority of African and American Christians, the original name has been in constant use for decades, and perhaps there is hardly anyone among them who is still scandalized at hearing this name. It unfortunately seems to me that on the European continent, there is still a long way to go in this direction.
Along the Reformation process, several churches were founded as a result of recognizing Yahuwah’s original Holy day in the Sabbath as described in the Ten Commandments:
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
Exodus 20:8
Indeed, we do not read anything like : “dear son, please take appart a day of your choice to worship Me…” but instead we can see that the Sabbath has been specifically chosen by Elohim for us to be a meeting point, a sign of our Covenant.
Yahushua himself did no different. However, he committed a kind of “civil” or rather “scribal disobedience” on certain Shabbats by healing the sick and delivering prisoners from their sins. This indeed scandalized the religious leaders of the time, since they forgot that
The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath
Therefore, the blessing of Sabbat became a curse to them, as they endorsed a terrible psychological yoke by constantly having to be careful not to violate the law of the Sabbath.
Because the law of Life and Love is ahead of all other decrees
Later, Yahushua also declares that
The Son of Man is (also) Lord of the Sabbath.
Luke 6:5
That means that whoever is in the Messiah, he is above the Sabbath himself together with the Messiah.
But it does not follow that he has the right to exchange the days
Because in this case he becomes a prisoner of another day by the mere act of designating it. After all, Yahushua did not die on the cross to usher in a new day, but to fulfill the existing one!
And being above the law does not give us the right to break the law, but it stands under our feet as one of the foundations so that our own temple, the temple of Ruach HaKodesh, does not shake and stands on solid ground, on the foundations of the law and the prophets, on which the Church itself was built.
Paul himself did never stated anything else even when he was asking the elders not to burden the newly born again brethren with questions of days and dates, since they are still children and they may consider another day to be the holy one according to the purity of their hearts.
As long as it is done out of ignorance and with a pure heart, it is a sweet-smelling sacrifice in the eyes of Elohim. Let them do it as long as their worship is spotless. However, Paul does not add it, but it is clear that sooner or later, as a consequence of the process of sanctification and getting mature in spirit, Ruach HaKodesh is going to restore the original order in them as well. It is none of our business to know how long Elohim grants them his patience and when time will come for each one of them.
The original Will of Yahuwah, however, is to sanctify/separate the Sabbat which is Saturday.
Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in the Messiah.
Colossians 2:16-17
As for the original Saturday as a shadow, let anyone refrain from creating another shadow instead of the former and original one. Moreover, in order to create a series of similar, alternative religious ceremonies: “Then we come together, in this particular place, this is allowed, this is not, we will sing this, for this amount of time, we must read this portion of the Scriptures, pray this and that, in that way, put your tithe in such a box and our offerings in such a basket… and most of all: This one is going to preach because he/she has the required knowledge according to our established theological requirements, like the scribes in the times of Yeshua, etc. Those places where they are training religious robots instead of making disciples by rebirth and leave them be led directly by the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Tabernacle in the wilderness, which is our model, is mobile, flexible, going here and there under the guidance of Ruach. So the Law/the Commandments and the one of Shabbat within it, is equally mobile, flexible and has to work as a blessing and means of giving and strengthening life according to the place and the situation.
Saturday as a shadow vs. Saturday as the reality of the Messiah
For us, as Levites in the Heavenly Sanctuary, every day is a Sabbath and a Holy Day
As with all the other Feasts of Yahuwah, being Levite priests living and serving in the Messiah, we are experiencing all the Feasts and Sabbaths in a permanent way in the presence of Yahushua. For us and in spirit, every day is Saturday, Yom Kippur, Pessach and all the other holidays. What matters for us is no more the calendar, the times and the hours, but the continuity and the fulfillment of the Holy Moments in our hearts. See more about this: The Feasts of Yahuwah in Yahushua.
In the temporal dimension, the great events of Salvation History were all fulfilled on biblical holidays, so after Shavuot (Pentecost) the next big event waiting to be fulfilled will be Yom HaTrua (Day of Trumpets). So the holidays also have several dimensions, see the other article. But here, we are only going to analyze the holidays on a personal level rather than historic or universal).
However,
those who do not belong to the Messiah are still under the law,
and these laws apply to them according to their original order.Because unlike circumcision, the Sabbath is mentioned on the two stone tablets which means that it is part of the 10 Commandments. Thus it also applies to the entire Church and the people of Elohim, those born again in the Messiah. As we read several times with the Passover sacrifice, you should have one law for the sojourner and the stranger, etc. But as born again disciples the law is no more according to the mere letter but living and acting in us through the fire of the Holy Spirit. That’s the main point I strive to make you understand through practically all my teachings.
For Shabbat is a sign between the children of Israel and Elohim. This sign should also be respected and proclaimed as an eternal law by those who are not part of the children of Israel, who are already exempt from the strict observance of this sign, but by having become sons of Elohim through the Blood of the Lamb, they should know the essence of this eternal Sabbath, and as an even greater sign it should be visible on them, every single day of the week. (e.g. when you get aware that people notice how stable you are, how optimistic you are, even in situations when they are in panic. When everyone is afraid of something they can see that you literally walk on water and are not affected by the spiritual traumas that afflict secular people or even your religious peers. This is a type of constant Shabbat experienced internally).
And those who are not aliens, have not yet joined the people of Elohim through the Blood of the Lamb, they must also know these laws. After a week of work, it is natural that on the appointed days they will go towards us, the Levites, if they are looking for Elohim. For us, calendar holidays, times and hours are important and should be observed at this level, because we must know that our service to the outside world becomes particularly intense at these moments.
At such times, hearts are more opened, everyday running and rush stops and openness to the Word of Elohim increases. Because whether you like it or not, Saturday has a strong spiritual and world-wide influence on all the created creatures and they do feel it somewhere deep in their minds and hearts.
On these days, we have to be on the lookout and in this way we have the responsibility of inviting the outsiders to the respect of these appointed days according to the calendar. Moreover, even the fake holidays can also be used, in a wise manner instead of immediately destroying them in the eyes of those who still respect them. Since for them, these false days (sunday, Christmas, etc.) are holidays when their hearts are more open than usual the same way so that they can eventually better receive the Gospel.
What’s wrong with Sunday
Let us emphasize that Sunday, the first day of the week, Yom Echad, is a very special day and is almost as important as Saturday. Why? Because on this day the Almighty began his work of creation. On this day, Elohim brought the Light, that means Himself as the Messiah, into the already fallen world languishing in chaos and darkness (Tohu VeBehu). Presumably, it was on the first day of a certain week (Sunday), that the same Light of the World was born into the visible world in the person of Yeshua of Nazareth. Also at dawn on Sunday, at the moment when the Sabbath changed to the next day, our Lord Yahushua HaMashiah rose from the dead and it was mainly later that day that the reality of the resurrection was perceived by the external witnesses. In short, without the day of creation, without the first day of the week, neither Saturday nor any other day of the week could exist. Both the creation and the new creation and even the gift of Ruach HaKodesh to the first disciples at Shavuot (Pentecost) began on this precise day which is the symbol of every new beginning. None of these events could have happened on any other day!
Despite all of these, neither Yahuwah nor the Messiah nor the Holy Spirit ever revealed to anyone that we should switch from Saturday to Sunday.
Why do many still consider Sunday more important then?
Because the disciples gathered on the first day of the week, as we read in the Book of Acts?
Yes, as they gathered on all the other days of the week as well. Furthermore, we read that they appeared among their traditional Jewish brothers in the synagogueson Saturdays.
Or because we also read that Paul collected the donations on the first day of the week?
Well, fom a Jewish perspective, this is exactly the proof, that sundays were not considered as holy by the first disciples, since we do never deal with money or any other material things on a holy day. The collection of donations is the symbol of the beginning of the work. Capital is collected so that it can be distributed, so that it can be used for service, for ministry that is to say for work.
In my own native language for ex., which is Hungarian – although you might have noticed that my accent seems quite frenchy for a Hungarian guy, but let’s not get into my difficult past so we avoid complicating things even more – but in Hungarian Sunday is Vasárnap which is a derivation of two words: Vásár meaning market or marketplace and Nap that means day and sun. So here we can also figure out that the first day of the week is far from being sanctified but rather the day of the market, when we buy the food we need for the following week so that we can start our new journey equipped with all the energy we need.
After his resurrection, our Lord appeared to the disciples, symbolically on Sunday, because a new beginning was opened before us, and not to designate another day to be observed above the others according to a new Pharisaic order. This is what the traditional Jews do with the Sabbath to this day. They are perceiving the law of Shabbat from bellow being themselves still under the law. So they are constantly suffering in order to respect all the regulations (mainly since they have added all the Babylonian extra judaic stuff to it, but this is not the subject of this article).
The law remains the law, Yahushua himself did not change a single iota, that is, he did not even touch the smallest letter, so even less did he replace a whole word such as Shabbat to transcribe it into Yom Echad! But by entering into His body, we entered an eternal Sabbath-rest, where we live the holiness of this day in all moments and for ever. The traditional Christians made a “restless” Sunday out of the traditional Jewish “restless” Sabbath, that is, by declaring that a particular day is chosen above the others, and moreover, their choice did not fall on the original one. Moreover, they are doing all of this on the basis of what Paul declared that we should no longer worry about the designated calendar times and days. This phenomenon is nothing more than the preservation of Pharisaism mixed with the distortion of the law. Double mistake! …the secret power of lawlessness is already at work… 2Thessalonians 2:7
The Blood of the Lamb freed us from keeping the Sabbath according to the letter and time, so that we could live in continuous Sabbath and not to choose another day to continue celebrating the new one in the old, stone-engraved, pharisaical way.
Just like in the case of Yeshua’s birth, Elohim did never ask anyone to celebrate his resurrection or the sending of His Spirit on any particular day of the week in replacement of the Sabbath.
Are Sunday-keepers wrong?
Yes, of course! Why?
Because they do not understand and recognize what had just been explained above. But most of all
in most cases, their Sundays are just the remaining wild shoots of an unweeded catholic root.
And that’s basically the biggest problem of all! It is not a matter of some believers coming together on this day. But then, why did other groups and churches not choose Wednesday, Thursday or any other day? Not for youth-gatherings or other special occasions, but for their worships? If the day is not so important, then why this exclusivity around Sunday?
They do not even recognize that still not having reconsidered the question of the weekly resting day since the beginning of the reformation, they are still perpetuating the constantinian rebellion, which intended to “de-Judaize” the newly adopted state religion together with changing the times, dates and the Names.
The proof of what the cult of Sunday is really about and what its roots are can be found in the English and German languages themselves: Sunday – Zontag
The Latins having had enough intelligence, or rather cunning – since they were the initiators of the terrorist attack of Constantine the “great” – to create a new name for the first day of the week which is derived from the word Lord: Domenica/Domingo/Dimanche).
The roman empire of the time had to preserve many pagan traditions, gods and feasts so that the the pagan masses living among them would not rebel against the new order. It’s all about politics. This is how the holy day of the Sun God (Sunday – Zontag) had taken over Elohim’s original Sabbath. The same occurred in the case of Christmas, Easter and all the feasts of all kinds of saints.
Thus, it is important for us, disciples of a certain spiritual age in the Messiah, to remember that obedience does not consist in making Elohim accept a distortion of human or even demonic origin so as not to upset the spirits and keep the herd together, but on the contrary
it is up to Man to comply with the rules established by Yahuwah. Those Rules that became flesh in the Messiah and that are fulfilled in us by the Holy Spirit.
But again, no longer by letters from tablets of stone or texts printed in books, but by the engraving of the tongues of fire in our hearts, when we feel inside that the mere thought of accepting the Sabbath as a separate day brings peace in us and this without feeling obliged to crawl on the ground as a sign of submission or to bind my hands and feet in order to ensure total respect for the commandments. On the contrary, we feel and experience this kind of freedom when we know that we can and must also heal people like Yeshua did, or even get into a car and drive a few kilometers in order to pull a donkey out of the well, because that is the moment he needs it.
We can experience this feeling of freedom any day of the week.
If I am obedient to the laws that Ruach HaKodesh has placed on my heart and expects from me in accordance with my maturity, in accordance with my spiritual age, I do not have to think about what I should or should not do on this day – just like on the others. The law lives within me, and if I am obedient to it, whatever I may do, I will not break it, for I will not have the desire or thought of doing what is unholy.
From now on, no one should want to transfer anyone from the slavery of the original Saturday to the slavery of a false Sunday, because such a person would have understood nothing of the leading of the Holy Spirit and what it is all about to be a born-again or being an adult in the spirit. Don’t lie to yourself with theological ramblings and especially don’t defile the Holy events that happened on the first day of the week by imposing your new and counterfeit Pharisaism on yourself, on other people or even on the whole world.
Some thoughts about Shabbat-keeping churches
One shouldn’t think that returning to the Sabbath makes you an extra-Christian or ensures your Salvation in itself. Unfortunately, it is very sad that the majority of the Saturday-keeping churches do simply restore this Commandment in such a Pharisaic level of mind that the lack of spiritual content not only renders their efforts and reforms futile, but also makes them even greater enemies of the restoration of the true Sabbath than the Roman Church itself and the other supposedly reformed little Vaticans with all their false Sundays and feasts.
Very often, the sunday-keepers are literally condemning and it is made a question of salvation if someone insists on keeping Sunday, even by ignorance. I emphasize that ignorantly. In my opinion, having been enlightened and still rebelling against it can indeed lead to the loss of salvation (like any other conscious rebellion). But the majority of believers are merely misled and in the absence of spiritual vision – as their rebirth is either hindered or at least overshadowed by some kind of pastor or other person called a teacher – the misled does not even realize that he is acting against the will of Elohim. Condemning the ignorant is a more serious version of the crime of condemnation itself.
Meanwhile, instead of being filled with the Holy Spirit, these communities idolize their own church founders together with their own theologies, and the lack of the leading of the Holy Spirit has in some cases led them all the way back to openly Christless rabbinical Judaism. This is what happened in Transylvania in the last century, where some believers were finally executed in gas chambers along with the genuine Jewish people.
In several cases, however, their path does not lead to Judaism, but to a state of marginal sectarianism similar to Judaism, where the rank of the Messiah Yahushua is questioned and degraded, and he who is the Creator is belittled to the rank of simple creature. Furthermore, they fall into a certain type of replacement theology by starting many times to deny the Judaity of today’s Jews, that is, open anti-Semitism. The promotion of Khazarian theories, etc., which theory may be true anyway, but in this case the outcome of the matter will surprise many, as it would not mean at all that we, Ashkenazi Jews, are not the descendants of Jacob, even if we have actually made a little tour of a few hundred years in an area called Khazaria. But I explain this in more detail in my writings on The Gathering of the Tribes of Israel of Anti-Semitism and anti-Christianity.
So it is a basic phenomenon of today’s Sabbatist trends that they quickly move in the direction of Judaism, where the emphasis is on the appliance of the law to the letter, while the Messiah is lowered, and the Ruach HaKodesh can only be imagined in theory.
It also develops into a kind of Unitarianism when they begin to deny the reality of Elohim’s threefold appearance.
The falsity of the doctrine of the Holy Trinity, which seeks to multiply the person of the One Elohim, unfortunately leads many to the denial of the Triple Holiness of Elohim: the three main roles and forms of appearance as the Father, the Son and Ruach HaKodesh. Sooner or later, a very large number of Sabbatarian start to question the divinity of the Messiah. This is when they declare that Yeshua is a creature or even identify him with the archangel Michael. (More about this in my article/video Holy Trinity or Triple Holiness?). And concerning Michael, briefly: he also certainly appeared in human form and all signs point to the fact that he was none other than Moses himself – the other archangel Gabriel being presumably Eliyahu and John (the baptist), but you can learn more about this from my writings TERUMAH and B-Reshit / B-Beginning / B-Plan.
The point is that here, as in so many other cases, one false extreme drives those who realize that there is something wrong with the previous explanations or theories to another equally false extreme.
I mention these cases so that we can see that although it is very good and necessary to return to Jewish roots, a part of which is Shabbat, but
if all this is not done in the Messiah, through the guidance of Ruach HaKodesh and our rebirth,
then we go back under the law according to the letter, which sooner or later is going to kill us. In that case, I dare say, that it would have been better for such a person not even having come out of Egypt or Rome with all their false Sundays.
Both camps have serious issues to settle. The Saturday camp’s distorted testimony about Saturday is responsible for the fact that so many people still go on with their Sundays. However, the majority of people born again and filled with Ruach HaKodesh still refuse to settle this issue and give up their Sundays. Even among religious, non-born again and non-spiritually filled believers, many try harder to observe the laws that the Holy Spirit would like to operate in you too, if you would finally let him do his job! In the first camp, they gradually sink into their pharisaism, and in the second, sooner or later they end up grieving the Holy Spirit.
True and effective Reformation
We have to accept one fundamental truth
any reform can only come through the Holy Spirit.
Only things that have been burned into your heart are to be considered as real Reforms and not those good intellectual and theological ideas that can pop out of your mind or because you read it in the Bible ?
The question is whether we have the Holy Spirit or not?
If we do, did the Holy Spirit already express His will about this matter or any other matter in our personal life?
If so, do we obey Him?
If not, then let’s make the right decision and not rebel any longer.
If you don’t have the Holy Spirit yet, let’s ask Yahushua for the recognition of your sins, so that you can repent, get baptized with water and then with Fire. Otherwise you’ll go on wallowing in lukewarm and empty religiosity.
You can keep Saturdays this way, even study the Scriptures dressed in white kippahs and clothes, discovering many truths, but you are unable to live the Truth, because it never gets from your head into your heart. But if you already have the baptism of fire, then urgently give up all your infantile rebellion and finally grow up, because you are in great danger!
Once again, my own testimony: the discovery that Yahuwah is His name was not made by researching in the scriptures, but was revealed by Ruach HaKodesh through my own mouth, after I asked Elohim to reveal to me the way He would like me call Him in the future. Others come to this conclusion after long and convulsive studies of the Scriptures. In many cases, with the help of all kinds of non-biblical writings, such as apocryphal books. What’s the difference between the two? In the first case, the Living Messiah declares out loud, in tongues, what his will is. But in the other case Truth is discovered using scribe (and Pharisee) methods and arises from the dry letters which never become life in them.
First, we should always go to the Messiah and ask him personally what his will is, even by confirming the written Word. But first we should surrender our lives to Him. He also reminds us from within of what stands in the Writings. You often receive a word in your heart in this way, which you might only read later and realize that it had already been written in the Bible a long time ago. Many times, the Word confirms what you have already received in your heart.
So let us choose the Wholeness offered by the Messiah, since it is free and its reward is Eternal Life.
From there it is up to us how much we empower the Holy Spirit to do His sanctifying work in us according to His own will and schedule. Let’s not blame Satan and foreign spirits if we get stuck in a certain spiritual level, since we are the only ones responsible if we empower these to stop us.
Behind Sunday-keeping, the same demonic powers are hiding as behind superficial Saturdays lived in the traditional way.
These are the kinds of Saturdays that Yahuwah hates, and even more so in the case of Sundays
Will it be a watershed issue of the end times?
The Antichrist – not after his appearance, since he is already in the world and we can know who he is very precisely – but when he enters the scene and takes power over the world, will, among other things change the times. This had already been greatly fulfilled by the Roman Church and its leader, one of the main foreshadows of the antichrist, Constantine the “great”, precisely and among other things in the conversion from Shabbat to Sunday a few centuries ago. However, some Christians think this prophecy is going to be fulfilled in the last times by forcing the worship of Sunday, while others, from the other camp, actually think the opposite and that the Antichrist will impose everyone to come back to the Sabbath. Whether he will choose between the two at all, I cannot predict. As I mentioned, the antichrist spirit will have already made this modification two thousand years ago. If, however, and as a confirmation, the Antichrist were to make a particular day mandatory, it would not be the mark of the beast in itself, but at most a part of it. (so that our Adventist friends understand the matter). But here as well, the question will not be whether his choice will fall on Saturday or Sunday, but the problem will be to turn everything to the level of formality and superficiality, beyond the fact that he will exalt and set himself up in Elohim’s temple, proclaiming himself to be Elohim instead of Yahuwah, and the Messiah, instead of Yahushua.
But let’s not fool ourselves. It is not primarily the Antichrist that we need to fear.
Persecution will not mostly come from outside, but from those whom we may still consider our brothers today.
Those who, instead of the model of the original Church, follow and offer other alternatives. Those who either see their salvation in the Law, or by denying them while claiming to have Ruach HaKodesh, are simply trampling on the very order that is the essence of the Holy Spirit, and who thus essentially are blaspheming Him. These phenomena must be feared, because they kill on a spiritual level and from within.
Let us be brave enough to keep on with the work of Ruach HaKodesh, even if we cause division in our communities, even if the two camps just mentioned, the two extremes will curse you. Pharisees will accuse you of being libertine and the lawless ones will accuse you to be legalistic. This is natural and be happy as long as you hear these from both sides, because this is a sign that you are on the right track.
Anyway,
reformation must continue until we return to the model of the first and true Church described in the book of the Acts of the Apostles.
We do not carry out this reformation by ourselves, we are only its instruments. Above all, no one should declare that he brought the last reformation to the world, no matter how great his ministry really is and being and example to be followed, because the last one will only be carried out by the Messiah himself when he returns. From our side, we have to constantly work on the following question, we must always seek to fulfill the Next Reformation at our human level. We should be more careful when choosing the names of our ministries, since the spoken word has its weight in the spiritual realm and we can easily mislead ourselves by thinking that after what already happened, no further change or restoration is left to be carried out. We can curse ourselves and prevent the sanctification process to go on. This is not a game. We simply have to let Ruach HaKodesh do this work, primarily within ourselves. The only thing that Elohim expects from us is to accept it in obedience, when He prompts us to change from within and to courageously take every steps when He tells us that the time has come.
The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.
