Eze. 33:1-6: Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.

The Enemy Within!




Madness seems to have taken over the world.

There seems to be no more sense of reason amongst the people – it would seem that we are on a path to absolute self-destruction with no consideration for anybody or anything apart from satisfying our self-centered and all consuming desires.

Knowing that YHWH Elohim is allowing this madness to happen would it be impertinent of me to ask if I am alone in asking of ABBA TO PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT, IF ANYTHING, WE SHOULD BE DOING IN THESE TIMES?

I am certain I am not alone in my belief that HE is allowing all of this to happen according to HIS Divine Plan and Will SO AS TO REACH AND DRAW HIS PEOPLE, THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF YISRAEL – THOSE WHOSE NAME IS RECORDED IN THE BOOK OF LIFE - BACK TO HIS FOLD!

CAN WE NOT SEE THAT HE IS BRINGING HIS PEOPLE, THOSE CALLED BY HIS NAME, BACK TO HIM AS HE SYSTEMATICALLY AND METHODICALLY DESTROYS THEIR (OUR) IDOLS AND YET IT WOULD SEEM THAT WE ARE FIGHTING AND BICKERING AMONGST OURSELVES, AND AGAINST YHWH ELOHIM, OVER HOW TO DEAL WITH AND PROTECT THE IDOLS IN OUR LIVES. 

Our enemy is not Islam; our enemy is not the UN - and for those viewing world events from the other side of the spectrum  – our enemy is certainly not THE JEWS, Israel, Zionism or Donald Trump – these are all just fruit of the enemy which YHWH Elohim has allowed to rise up so as to break down our idols, purge us of the worship and reliance on them.

What exactly are these idols* that need to be torn down from the high places in our lives? (2 Kings 18)

Well 1 John 2:16 tells us that all our idols are encapsulated in the lust of the flesh; the lust of the eyes and the pride of life – AND THAT NONE OF THIS IS FROM THE FATHER! (Ex. 20:2-5)

Now before anybody tells me that they do not have idols (SIN) in their lives I have it on incredibly dependable authority that – IF WE SAY WE HAVE NO SIN WE DECIEVE OURSELVES AND THE TRUTH (SPIRIT OF YESHUA – THE RUACH HAKODESH) IS NOT IN US! (1 John 1:8)

SO WHAT IS SIN?

Is it even vaguely possible that we could be walking in total ignorance & bliss believing we have no SIN (IDOLS) in our lives when in truth of fact we are involved in an insidious and adulterous affair with the world, even with other gods (demonic spirits)?

I contend that this is not just possible but is indeed a reality for the vast, vast majority of those claiming belief and redemption in and through Jesus Christ.

This would appear to be a harsh, if not a completely insensitive statement for me to make, BUT I MAKE IT and believe me I do not make it lightly.

Why would I make such a statement knowing it will not be well received and will certainly not endear me to most of you out there?

Because I deal here with a matter of life or death!

So how is it possible then, we may ask, that one could believe there is no SIN (IDOLS) in their lives and that they, whilst thinking they walk in the LIGHT, are in fact walking in DARKNESS?

Very simple we just twist Scripture and its interpretation:

Look at a Scripture like 1 John 1:5-7 which tells us what we need to do to achieve this state of “WALKING WITH JESUS IN THE LIGHT THROUGH HIS BLOOD” and which I am convinced has resulted in all of us reading this blog AT SOME STAGE OR ANOTHER TO MAKE AN ALTER CALL OR COMMITMENT TO JESUS – AND WE ALL BELIEVE THAT THROUGH THIS ACTION WE WERE “BORN AGAIN” AND NOW ARE ON OUR WAY TO HEAVEN!

BUT what if our interpretation is not correct; what is our interpretation of this passage and others was never properly explained to us?

Bear with me now please – This is not a judgment call seeing as I was a victim of the above practice myself!

Now looking at the process of “rebirth” touched on in the paragraph above, and also assuming the almost inevitable fact that after our “rebirths” we all continued in The Church Systems wherein we found ourselves at “rebirth”, we would all then have, by association, adopted and immersed ourselves into all that our particular denomination stood for whilst all the while obediently accepting what we were told by the leaders of “our denomination” was the correct path of righteousness and eternal salvation, and thereby it is not that difficult to imagine that we all think/thought that we indeed have/had no SIN (IDOLS) in our lives.

BUT here is a something that is crucial to our understanding of Salvation, Righteousness and Justice at YHWH’s level - Denominational people, in almost all cases when asked CANNOT GIVE THE BIBLICAL DEFINITION FOR SIN AND THOSE WHO CAN DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE DEFINITION OF SIN MEANS OR ENTAILS!

For the uninitiated, and there are many of us - SIN IS THE BREAKING OF THE LAW (TORAH) OF YHWH! (1 John 3:4).

As I have said this is not meant to be judgmental nor facetious as I too fell into this trap of believing I had no sin in my life when I was in the Denominations. Here is an example from my own life of just such an occasion:

I received a Word from The Ruach of YHWH when HE began leading me out of the structured church and her systems, this word included Is. 55:6-7, and believe me or not I had some doubt as to whether this Word applied to me or not BECAUSE WHEN INSPECTING MYSELF (a Sunday Church goer breaking applicable Torah in every aspect imaginable) I COULD FIND NO SIN IN MY LIFE BECAUSE I WAS DOING ALL THAT THE CHURCH SAID I SHOULD DO, AND I WAS DOING IT PERFECTLY! I was so entrenched in “Denominational Doctrine” that it took me almost 7 years of tutoring by The Ruach HIMSELF for me to realise that I was constantly living in sin AND THUS NOT LOVING YESHUA AS HE COMMANDS AND DESIRES simply because I was not keeping Torah, I was into Sunday worship, unholy diets, Christmas and Easter Celebrations – you name it I did it and Jesus & the Church were OK with that – ACCORDING TO MY PASTOR - SO WHO WAS I TO CHALLENGE THEM!

WOW what a blind fool I was! Thank-you Abba that you, by your Grace and Mercy opened my eyes to YOUR TRUE LOVE (John 14:15, 21 & 23) OF YOUR LIVING WORD!

So SIN IS TO BREAK HIS LAW, HIS TORAH AS RECORDED BY THE FINGER OF THE LAWGIVER HIMSELF ON MT. SINAI AND THEN HANDED DOWN TO MOSHE (1 John 3:4).

That same LAW DEMANDS THE DEATH OF MESSIAH YESHUA, THE COVENANT & LAWGIVER HIMSELF, SO THAT WE CAN NOW BE SPARED THE PENALTY OF DEATH WE SO RICHLY DESERVE! (Is. 33:22; Col. 2:13-14; James 4:12)

TO ACHIEVE THIS STATUS, AUTHORITY TO BE DEEMED THE LAMB OF ELOHIM WHO WILL TAKE AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD (John 1:29). YESHUA NEVER EVER BROKE THE LAW, THE TORAH (2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 4:15; 1 Pet. 2:22; 1 John 3:5) REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE CHURCH MAY SAY ABOUT THE WOMAN CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF ADULTRY (John 8:1-30) OR THAT WE CAN NOW EAT ANY FOOD WE WANT TO BECAUSE OF Matt. 15:2, 11.

CONSEQUENTLY WE, HIS DISCIPLES, THOSE WHO NOW ABIDE IN YESHUA WILL HAVE TO BEGIN TO WALK AS HE WALKED BY FIRSTLY REPENTING OF OUR SIN (BREAKING OF TORAH) AND ACCEPTING HIS PERFECT SACRIFICE - AND HOW DO WE DO THAT? – 1 John 2:3 TELLS US THAT BY OBEYING HIS COMMANDMENTS (HIS TORAH OR COVENANT CONDITIONS) WE KNOW THAT WE KNOW HIM! This verse uses very intimate Covenant Language usually exchanged between a Groom and His Bride!

NOW DOES THIS COURSE OF EVENTS DESCRIBED ABOVE MATCH YOUR COURSE OF EVENTS AS DICTATED BY YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF REBIRTH AND RETURNING TO THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SALVATION OR AS YOUR DENOMINATIONS PRESENTED 1 John 1:5-7 TO YOU?  

I would dare to venture that most, if not all of us, did not walk the path of Teshuva (Return in Hebrew) as is Biblically mandated, yet the Church Systems will have us believe that YESHUA, THE ONE WHO NEVER WILL AND NEVER CAN WALK IN SIN, APPLIES 1 John 2:4 WHEN DEALING WITH HIS BETROTHED. Let us stand still here and consider 1 John 2:4

“He that saith, I know HIM, and keepeth not HIS commandments is a liar and the Truth in not in him!

THIS APPLICATION MAKES THE JESUS THAT THE CHURCH SYSTEM PROMOTES ONE WHO IS WELL PLEASED WITH HIS DISCIPLES WALKING IN CONTINUAL SIN (BREAKING TORAH) AS SATAN AND HIS KIND WOULD DO WHEN IN FACT AS HIS DISCIPLES, WE SHOULD NEVER WALK IN SIN BUT BY OBDEDIANCE (FAITH AND TRUST) IN YESHUA AND HIS TORAH! (James 2:18-20)

REMEMBER THAT YHWH ELOHIM SAID OF YESHUA – THIS IS MY SON IN WHOM I AM WELL PLEASED – SO LISTEN TO HIM!

AND WHY WAS HE PLEASED WITH YESHUA? BECAUSE YESHUA KEPT THE LAW, ONLY DID AS HE SAW AND HEARD FROM HIS FATHER! (Matt. 3:17; Matt. 17:5; 2 Pet. 1:17; John 8:28; John 12:49)

It is a given that while we are all still in the flesh, and just as the Apostle Sha’ul lamented, WE SHALL ALL FALL INTO SIN FROM TIME TO TIME - BUT WHEN WE DO, WE HAVE AN ADVOCATE IN MESSIAH YESHUA (Rom. 7:21-25)!

HOWEVER IF ONE IS TO WALK IN HABITUAL AND CONTINUAL SIN, IN REBELLION TO YHWH THROUGH INTENTIONALLY BREAKING HIS TORAH, THE TORAH WHICH ILLUSTRATED THE WAY HIS SON WAS, IS AND FOREVER SHALL BE, AND THEREFORE HOW WE TOO SHOULD BE FOR ETERNITY THROUGH MESSIAH, THIS ONE IS AND SHALL FOREVER BE THEN AS THE WORD SAYS – ONE THAT HAS NEVER SEEN OR KNOWN YESHUA! (1 John 3:6)

This concept spoken of above is actually rather straight forwards – WHEN WE WALK AS YESHUA WALKED WE WALK OUT HIS TORAH EMULATING WHO HE ACTUALLY IS – THE LIVING TORAH & THEREFORE THERE IS NO SIN AND HE REIGNS & RULES IN THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION – HOWEVER THE MOMENT WE BREAK HIS TORAH, i.e. NOT WALK AS HE WALKED WE ARE IN SIN! This Torah inspired Walk in The Ruach is how we are also to walk if we are to be a Light and Salt to the World. (1 John 2:4-6; Matt. 5:13-16)

Please allow me to again reiterate 1 John 2:3, the test by which we can tell if we indeed KNOW YESHUA – IF WE ARE ENTERING INTO A PROGRESSIVELY MORE INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM WHO IS THE PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINSIS THAT WE WILL KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS!

Where do we find His Commandments and that we are instructed to keep them?

Yeshua HIMSELF answers that question in Mat. 5:17-20 – by telling us that HE has not come to destroy the LAW or THE PROPHETS but rather to fulfill them (The Law and the Prophets where we find His Torah) – in fact in Greek it is recorded that HE STATED THAT HE CAME TO PLEROO** - G4137 – to fully preach, accomplish, satisfy - Hebrew idiomatic expression is to Magnify the Law and the Prophets.

Before we continue please take the time to read the description of the portion highlighted with asterisks’ (**) above & located at the end of the blog it may assist with what I am to say next.

As I stated in the beginning of this blog, not a day goes past that we are not bombarded with all sorts of world events, events that are indeed mind boggling, so instead of being caught up in the frenzy of the day could we not just take a moment to sit and consider these events and players within the events and see them for what they are?

These events were prophesied by Yeshua, HE also told us that WE SHOULD NOT BE CONCERNED ABOUT THEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO COME TO PASS AND THAT THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF BIRTH PAINS! Matt. 24:5-8

How far along we are with these birth pains I cannot say, but possibly further than we may think, but regardless of that we need to take cognizance of the fact that these events, as stressful as they may be, are indeed being gloriously choreographed and designed, just as happened in Egypt, so that our Idols will and must be destroyed resulting in the world, and also us who are called by His Name, seeing the GLORY OF YHWH OUR ELOHIM! Ex. 7:4-5

These world events are impacting all our comfort zones, in other words, OUR IDOLS WHICH HAVE BECOME THE SUPPORTS, THE PILLARS IN OUR LIVES.

These supports/pillars/IDOLS take on too many forms and variations to all named or identified but in an attempt to identify them a good rule of Thumb I believe is suggested to us in Ex. 20:2-5if you cannot foresee life without something IT MAY BE AN IDOL!

So whether that “something” be the local political party; our savings; our children; our local denomination; our job; our status; our pride – or whatever is being threatened and is causing us to behave franticly in an attempt to not only defend it, (our supports and idols) BUT indeed PROTECT THEM IN THE NAME OF YHWH. Eze. 20 arw Ex. 20:3 we may be looking at an IDOL!

BUT WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT THESE IDOLS IN OUR LIVES ARE NOTHING MORE THAN SUPPORTS UPON WHICH WE RELY, AND THAT WHICH IS ATTACKING IT, our IDOL, MAY NOT NECESSARILY BE OUR ENEMY - Islam or the Democrats are not our enemies; neither is homosexuality, liberalism or anything else for that matter; THESE ARE AKIN TO THE PLAGUES THAT YHWH USED IN EGYPT – HE ALLOWD THEM TO HAPPEN TO ACHIEVE A PURPOSE!

So if it is not these isms’, or any combination of these and a million other “wrongs” that are the enemy, then what is?

IT IS THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS THAT IS OUR ENEMY!

But please read on to learn how he, the enemy, manifests himself in such a deceptive and destructive way!

The Idols that we have in our lives are not always necessarily something which started of as an idol, it may have been something that YHWH allowed for a season – HOWEVER THE SEASON PASSES BUT OUR DEPENDANCE ON WHAT YHWH GAVE TO US FOR A SEASON, FOR A PURPOSE BECOMES AN IDOL WHEN WE REFUSE TO LET IT GO. Num. 21:5-9 arw 2 Kings 18:4.

I have seen this same practice causing devastating results when parents will not release their children to live their own lives.

And of course we also have those idols that are patently wrong – pornography, alcohol, cigarettes, lust for wealth and so forth. 

But what about a far less visible IDOL?

What about an IDOL that is stealthy, insidious (sneaky, deceptive)?

An idol that has so much credibility that those who would even venture to suggest it may be “an Idol” are seen as sacrilegious, even heretic?

We are all confronted with this IDOL almost everyday of our lives on almost every level of society; allow me to explain a little more graphically if I may please:

During the preparation and writing of this blog I had the opportunity to have coffee with a good friend of mine, we have been acquainted for more than 25 years. My friend is an ardent denominationalist and therefore he does not agree with my Biblical Torah stance and he is very aware of the fact that I do not agree with his denominational theology, however we respect each other’s views, but on occasions things do get “a little out of hand”.

Just such an occasional hiccup occurred during our coffee appointment the other day via a lighthearted discussion on the situation in the Middle East – I really never saw this coming, but come it did and I am very grateful for this situation which got “a little out of hand” because it gave me a ringside seat view of something I had never before discerned.

My friend immediately went to the defence of the Palestinians using all the rhetoric one reads in this regard so I asked him what he thought of the Covenant YHWH made with Abraham – his answer – I DON’T BELIEVE IT’S TRUE, I DON’T BELIEVE IN IT!

There it is right up front – here is a person well versed in The Word WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN THE COVENANT YHWH MADE WITH ABRAHAM!

He immediately followed up this declaration with “I DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP THE LAW BECAUSE JESUS FULFILLED IT AND DIED FOR ME. I DON’T WANT TO BECOME A JEW & ANYWAY I DON’T BELIEVE IN THE SABBATH AS YOU DO – WE CELEBRATE HIS RESURRECTION ON THE SUNDAY, NOT THE SABBATH LAW!”

The dam had burst – and the rest flooded out: He touched on how we can now eat pork; Jesus told us it’s not what goes in but what is in the heart – he rushed towards the “no need for circumcision” – I tried to speak to him but he closed any form of debate with the words – “That is what I believe and nobody will change my mind!”

I really like and respect this person, BUT THERE AGAIN I SAW THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THAT I CAN EVER FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS – HIS IDOL OF RELIGION PREVENTS THAT! Acts 15:19-21 arw Acts 15:28-29

In hindsight I must say that this person grounds his entire theology on John Calvin AND THE APOSTLE PAUL as summed up in the Heidelberg Catechism! He hardly ever mentions the works or life of Yeshua – apart from those few misunderstood/heretical instances quoted above.

I saw something IN this person that I have never seen/identified before – THERE WAS SOMETHING SPIRITUAL WITH THIS PERSON’S ANIMOSITY TOWARDS “THE LAW”

I SAW THE HATRED HE HAS FOR “THE JEWS”!

I SAW THE SPIRIT OF ANTI-SEMITISM!

This is astounding; as I sit here and try to render into words what I saw in the flesh and grounded on a spiritual manifestation leaves me speechless.

Here is the greatest deception of the enemy that we face in these last days – The Enemy using a tactic as old as Creation which he successfully used against Chavah in the Garden; he even attempted to use it against our Saviour and King Yeshua in the Wilderness – and which man uses today and against which The Apostle Kephas (Peter) warned us of in his 2nd Epistle Chapter 3 verses 15-17; even Yeshua warned us of in – Matt. 24:4 and Matt. 24: 22-25 – against THE TWISTING AND MISREPRESENTATION OF THE WORD OF YHWH ELOHIM!

The Jews refer to the Christian Church as the religion introduced by Paul just as The Apostle Kephas (Peter) warned in 2 Pet. 3:15-17 telling us to beware of those unlearned and unstable ones who by twisting the teachings of Paul will lead us away in error – BUT BEWARE ALL WHO PRACTICE THIS ABOMINATION BECAUSE IT WILL LEAD TO YOUR OWN DESTRUCTION! 2 Pet. 3:16

Is it any wonder then that Yeshua, and His Marriage Covenant to Israel (all 12 tribes and the stranger joining them – Ex. 12:38; Jer. 31:31-34; Eze. 36:22-27; Eze. 37:16 & 24-25; Rom 11:11-36) are so despised by The Church?  

Is it any wonder that Rome and the denominations teach that The Church has taken the place of Israel?

Is it any wonder that Rome and the denominations teach of their “New Covenant” with Jesus was just for the “Church” and birthed at Shavuot (Pentecost – Acts 2) when in fact we are told in Jer. 31:31, Eze. 36:26-28 and other places that YHWH Elohim will be making His “New Covenant” with all 12 Tribes of Israel and NOT THE CHURCH – and in point of fact the New Covenant has not yet been accomplished and will not be until Judah and Israel (House of Ephraim) are joined together?

Is it any wonder that even after Yeshua told His Disciples to teach all that they had learnt and seen Him do (Matt. 28:18-19); or after Judas (Jude) tells us in Jude 1:3 to contend for “The Faith” that was for once and for all delivered to Elohim’s people (CJB); and even after we are further severely admonished in the Word to never add of subtract from His Word (Deut. 4:2; Deut.12:32; Rev. 22:19) we now have the additional non-Biblical doctrines of The Trinity, The Sunday, Christmas, Easter, abolition of Lev. 11 diet, Lev. 23 Festivals of YHWH Himself added to “The Holy Church” on the authority of men and Rome?

Is it any wonder that the Church teach that Yeshua broke HIS OWN TORAH AND THAT IT IS BIBLICAL AND BLESSED TO DO THE SAME?

Is it any wonder, as stated above but repeated for emphasis, that Yeshua warned us so vehemently to beware of those who SAY THAT HE IS THE MESSIAH, BUT THEY SHALL DECEIVE MANY (Matt. 24:4) and then again in Matt 24:24 HE warns us there shall arise Messiah’s and False Prophets WHO WILL SHOW GREAT SIGNS AND WONDERS, AND IF POSSIBLE THEY WOULD DECIEVE EVEN THE VERY ELECT?

On contemplation of this incident I would pose the following:


  • ·      The spirit of Jesus is alive and well in the Denominations.
  • ·      The spirit of Jesus has it’s own liturgy, worship, Festivals, Calendar, day of rest commemorating it’s deity, Sol invictus -The Unconquered Sun (Dan. 7:25)
  • ·      The spirit of Jesus has it’s holy city, Rome  
  • ·      The spirit of Jesus has enmity towards YESHUA OF NAZARET, King of Israel – FROM THE HOUSE OF JUDAH.
  • ·      Yeshua is The Torah; The Torah is Yeshua and to accept YESHUA YOU MUST ACCEPT HIS TORAH (Marriage Covenant) made at Mt Sinai.
  • ·      That the Sinai Covenant is a Covenant unacceptable or even unpalatable to the spirit of Jesus because this spirit has a marriage covenant signed with Rome (Constantine – the first pope).
  • ·      That the spirit of Jesus is in direct opposition to Yeshua HaMashiach.
  • ·      That the spirit of Jesus wants to take the place of Yeshua HaMashiach The King from The Tribe of Judah!

I stated earlier that I had started this blog a few days ago before the noteworthy coffee incident, with the knowledge that we will not be deceived by Islam, humanism or anything else – BUT WE WILL BE DECIEVED BY THOSE WHO CLAIM TO KNOW “JESUS” THE CHRIST – BUT NOT YESHUA KING OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH WHO WILL LEAD THE LOST SHEEP INTO ALL TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS!

I end it with this most severe of warnings: 

A house divided cannot stand - because a divorce will take place:

The only valid reason that Yeshua gave for a Biblical divorce was in the case of adultery which is of such a serious nature that Capital Punishment (the penalty of death) can be applied to the involved parties if the case is proven, yet the Church says that Yeshua summarily forgave the woman for adultery – NONSENSE HE WAS NOT AUTHORISED TO UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS ACCORDING TO THE TORAH - YOU WHO TEACH THIS DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT – PLEASE BE WARNED AND REFER TO THIS LINK! 

Idolatry in the spirit is akin to Adultery an offence (SIN) for which a husband can divorce his wife and for which she can get the death sentence for.

Yeshua says in Matt. 7:21-23 that those who did great signs and wonders supposedly in Yeshua’s Name (Under His Authority) WERE LAWLESS (WITHOUT TORAH) AND HE KNEW THEM NOT!

THE CHURCH HAS THE SPIRIT OF LAWLESNESS – IT HAS ABANDONED THE TORAH, THE LAW OF YHWH WHICH YESHUA KEPT AND GUARDED WITH HIS OWN LIFE!

WHO DOES THE BIBLE CALL THE LAWLESS ONE?

THE LAWLESS ONE IS DESCRIBED IN 2 THES. 2:7-9 AS WHO’S COMING IS AFTER THE WORKINGS OF SATAN!

This has again not been an easy message to send out and I pray that all who read it would have their eyes opened to the Wonder, Glory and Majesty of Yeshua our Messiah.

Weight up the evidence presented here with prayer, the Word and a mind open to His Ruach’s leading.

Shabbat Shalom



Bo’az.

·      * Idols are the outward manifestation of worship, adoration of YHWH Elohim through something or someway HE HAS NOT DEEMED CORRECT – Golden Calf of Ex. 32 is the prime example see http://theshofarblows-steve.blogspot.com/2017/02/there-are-only-two-seeds.html

·      ** Pleroo – See Romans 15:19 – translated in the KJV, ASV, Darby, and many other translations “fully preached”; BBE “given all the good news”; ESV –“fulfilled the ministry of the gospel”; ISV – “fully proclaimed” – Same word translated as “fulfil” in Mat. 5:17 is translated in all Translations to mean “Fully preaching The GospelNEVER MEANING TO FULFIL  THE GOSPEL (COMPOSED OF THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS) AND THUS DOING AWAY WITH IT! See Heb. 4:1-4 which tells us that our Forefathers in The Wilderness had the same Gospel as we have preached to them!
·      Reading Mat. 5:17-20 with the word Pleroo translated to mean that the Law and Prophets have been “Fulfilled” as to be done away with makes no sense in context: because we are told in verse 17, according to the Denominations, that the Law and the Prophets have now been done away with – YET YESHUA HIMSELF SAYS IN verse 17 that HE has not come to destroy the Law or the Prophets (i.e. the Covenant) – and in fact the Law and Prophets will remain until the heavens and the earth pass away (they are still here!) AND WHOEVER WILL BREAK THE SMALLEST JOT OR TITTLE WILL BE HELD ETERNALLY ACCOUNTABLE!  
·      Reading Mat. 5:20 Yeshua tells us that our righteousness will have exceed that of the Pharisees and Scribes – WHO KEPT TORAH SO EXACTLY AS TO BE GUILTY OF ADDING FENCES TO THE TORAH (ORAL TORAH) WHICH THEY LATER CONSIDERED EQUAL OR ON OCCASIONS ABOVE THE VERY TORAH!

·      Just to back up Yeshua’s support of the keeping of The Torah as per the Word of Moshe read Mat. 23:1-5 where Yeshua tells the people to do what the Teachers of The Law tell them out of the Law – BUT THE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT FOLLOW THE EXAMPLES OF HOW THESE TEACHERS LIVE THEIR LIVES AND ADD TO THE WRITTEN LAW!
