The NAME is the KEY OF KNOWLEDGE, the chief cornerstone rejected by the builders (Psalm 118:22, Luke 11:52 - see context)
Consider the “captivity coins” pictured below.
At left is a late-captivity coin minted during the lifetime of Danial with the
original Hebrew letters for “YAHU”
in a region occupied by the Yahudim.
They read right-to-left, YOD-HAY-UAU, “Yahu”.
We hear all the time that the Name of the Creator has been lost. It’s been
hidden by those who teach, as Yahusha declared they withheld the KEY OF
KNOWLEDGE. Now those who are rediscovering it are being attacked.
The Greek, Latin, and even Masoretic vowel-points have distorted the original
Hebrew Name, just glance at the 1st century Latin form for the Hebrew
word “Yahudah” on the Roman coin below (IUDEA). The Romans changed the name for
the region as well, calling it “Palestina”, named for the Philistine population
that inhabited the coastal area around Gaza. Clement of the Alexandrian School
spelled the Name Yahuah in the Greek letters “IAOUE”,
however the Name was soon concealed by encoded forms called “Christograms” (IC
XC, IHS), and totally expunged by the replacement (surrogate) word “Kurios”.
Josephus (Yusef Ben MattithYahu) tells us the Name is spelled in four Hebrew
“vowels”, and he did not explain it or apologize for it using Greek or Latin.
It’s Hebrew, even though there are people today saying it’s not.
People everywhere are learning more about the authentic Name of our Creator.
As the Hebrew origin is being widely shared, teachers are rising up claiming the
Name “YOD-HAY-UAU-HAY” is incorrect, and the REAL one is “AHAYAH”, and
that scribes changed it everywhere,
on every ancient stone, seal, parchment, contract, letter, pottery shard, the
Moabite stone, and the edict of Koresh (Cyrus), through out all times and
places.
This is impossible, but yet it is being taught, and believed.
The names containing “YAHU”
in them are apparently now cast into doubt as well.
Yahukanon, YashaYahu, AbadYah, ZekarYah, Yahudah, and so on are now in doubt,
since the new teaching is that they should be “EHJEH”
rather than
YAH
or
YAHU.
There are teachers claiming the Name “Yahuah” is a “guess-name”, and a name for
the devil.
The Masonic slogan “As above, so below” attempts to invert the identity of the
true Creator, turning everything upside-down.
The Jesuit-Illuminati agenda is at work even among the Natsarim. Their fruits
will identify them.
WHEN DID THE SHABATH DAY GET LOST?
Another teaching is that the true Shabath has been altered, and it has been
altered since Yahusha walked among us.
If the true 7th day observed by Yahusha some 2000 years ago has been altered,
when did it happen, and who did it?
Instead of a direct answer, we are confronted with page after page of waffling
and blame directed at Rome.
Rome had no impact on China, yet China and all other remote cultures are
perfectly in line with the current world-wide 7-day week.
This is a challenge to think. They
have been deceived by the dragon in many ways, and one of them is the idea that
Sun-day is “holy”.
Without someone to teach them the truth, they have little hope of learning how
the tradition of Sun-day came to supersede the 7th day Shabath, the day blessed
by Yahuah from the foundation of the world. The sign of the Eternal Covenant has
been substituted with a counterfeit MARK in the forehead and right hand of the
beast’s servants.
Identifying the mark involves a riddle. Those marked by the beast can buy and
sell. Those who do not buy and sell on the 7th day of each week are marked as
Yahuah’s servants. The anti-Semitism of the church fathers has influenced the
interpretation of key verses in Scripture.
Yahukanon identified the beast in a coded-riddle using the sum of the numerals
of Rome (DCLXVI, totaling 666). The MARK of this beast’s authority is, by it’s
own admission, recognized by attributing devotion to the Day of the Sun.
The Hebrew word SHABATH means:
rest, cease. It is the name for the 7th day of each week.
The whole world follows the pattern of the 7-day week, and it goes all the way
back to creation itself.
THE CREATOR YAHUAH SAID:
‘Six days work is
done, and on the seventh is a
Shabath of rest, set-apart
to Yahuah. Everyone
doing work on the Shabath day shall certainly be put to death.
And the children of Yisharal shall guard the Shabath,
to observe the Shabath throughout
their generations as an everlasting covenant.
Between Me and the children of Yisharal it is a sign forever.
For in six days Yahuah made the heavens and the earth,
and on the seventh day He
rested and
was refreshed.’ -
Exodus / Shemoth 31:15-17 BYNV
The 7th
day is
the first of Yahuah’s appointed times,
(Lev 23:3) and it is the everlasting “sign”.
The Edict of Constantine in 321 set forth the day of rest each week to be the
“venerable day of the sun”, which carried the penalty of death.
He worshipped the sun as Apollo, and minted coins with himself and his deity
together. The one with the spikes is Apollo, the one with the laurel wreath is
Constantine:
THE COUNCIL OF LAODICEA REFERS TO THE 7TH DAY AS “THE SABBATH”
Is it likely they recorded this so we who recognized the true Shabath today
would be deceived,
because “the Shabath” is not the day before their “Sun-day”? Of course not.
Here is a translation of Canon 29, 365 CE:
"Christians
should not Judaize and
should not be
idle on
the Sabbath,
but should work on
that day; they should, however,
particularly reverence the Lord’s day and, if possible, not work on it,
because they are Christians"
Council of Laodicea, Canon 29, 365 CE
These words
of men specify
“the
Sabbath”
is to be a day of work,
and to render devotion to the “Lord’s
day”,
also known as the “Day of the Sun”, Sun-day.
The Hebrew word BAAL is
defined as LORD.
Satan knows which day Shabath is, also noted by this
council which called the 7th day: “the
Sabbath”.
SERVING IS OBEYING; OBEYING IS WORSHIP
“Do
you not know that to whom you present yourselves servants for obedience, you
are servants of the one
whom you obey,
whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?” - Rom
6:16
“And if it seems evil in your eyes to serve Yahuah, choose
for yourselves this day whom you are going to serve,
whether the mighty ones which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or
the mighty ones of the
Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But I and my house, we
serve Yahuah.” Joshua
/ Yahusha 24:15
YAHUAH BLESSED THE 7TH DAY -
GEN
2:3:
“And Alahim
blessed the seventh day and set
it apart, because on it He rested from all His
work which Alahim
in creating had made."
Some
have claimed the Commandment of the
Shabath day was not repeated in
the “NT”,
so it may be disregarded by
Gentiles who believe in
Yahusha. In all Scripture, the Shabath is mentioned
170 times.
61 of
the 170 are found between Mt. & Revelation,
so the claim it is not repeated is untrue.
Hebrews reminds us of the foundation
of
the
world,
and how we are to
rest on
the 7th
day:
“For we who have believed do enter into that rest,
as He has said, “As I swore in My wrath, if they shall
enter into My rest ...” And yet His works have come
into being from the
foundation of the world.
For somewhere He has said thus about the seventh
day,
‘And Alahim rested on the seventh
day from
all His works,’ and in this again, ‘If they shall enter
into My rest …’
Since
then it remains for some to
enter into it, and those who formerly received the
besorah did not enter in because of disobedience,
He again defines a certain day, ‘Today,’ saying
through Daud so
much later, as it has been said,
‘Today, if you hear His Voice, do not harden your
hearts.’ For if Yahusha had given them rest, He
would not have spoken of another
day after
that.
So there remains a Sabbath-keeping for the people
of Alahim.” -
Heb. 4:3-9
Our Hebrew
roots were
intentionally severed by
Church (Circus) “fathers”, Councils, and edicts.
The sign of the 7th day was removed, and another sign
(mark) was invented to show compliance in a beastly
system under a woman (church).
Eusibius of Caesaria recorded in his Ecclesiastical
History the words of Emperor
Constantine,
“let us have nothing in common with the hostile rabble of the Yahudim”.
Anti-Semitism was the norm among the State Church
“fathers”.
Shabath
was very repugnant to
them.
According
to the Council of Laodicea,
all who observe the Shabath as a day of rest from work
were labelled Judaizers, heretics,
and anathema.
This meant they were worthy of death.
Observing
Shabath by resting is addressed at Hebrews 4,
and associated with imitating Yahuah,
Who rested from His
work on
the 7th day of the week,
which He established as the sign of
the Eternal Covenant.
(Ez 20:12, Ex 31:13, YashaYahu 56:2-7).
YAHUSHA WILL LOOK FOR THE
FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
At Yahusha's return, He will gather all who have held fast to His Covenant,
all
peoples that have
guarded His Shabath:
“Also the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to Yahuah to
serve Him,
and to love the
Name of Yahuah, to be His servants,
all who guard the Shabath, and not profane it,
and hold fast to My Covenant – them I shall bring to My
qodesh mountain, and let them rejoice in My
house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their
offerings are accepted on My altar, for My house
is called a house of prayer for all the peoples.” YashaYahu
/ Isa 56:6,
7
TRIBULATION WARNING FOR LAST DAYS:
“And pray that your flight does not
take place in winter or on the Shabath.” Mt. 24:20
His
chosen ones have always behaved differently
from the lost. The lost cannot discern the Voice of the Shepherd.
They have been taught “legalism” is
a negative attribute, a character flaw.
Their conscience fails to warn them, it is seared as
with a hot iron. Acts 15;21 shows us that gentiles
were to further their knowledge of Yahuah’s Torah:
“For from ancient generations Mosheh has,
in every city, those proclaiming him
– being
read in the congregations every Shabath.”
The
cultures of the entire planet affirm the 7-day week.
108 of
their languages base the name for the 7th day on the original Hebrew word:
Ancient Syriac: shabatho, Babylonian: sabatu, Arabic: assabt, Etheopic: sanbat,
Armenian: shapat, Polynesian: hari sabtu, Swahili: assabt, Latin: Sabbatum,
Italian: Sabbato, Spanish: Sabado, Russian: Subbota, Polish: Sobota, Assyrian:
Sabata, Tigre: Sanbat, Kurdish: Shamba, Georgian: Shabati, Morduin: Subbota,
Portuguese: Sabbado, New Slovenian: Sobota, Prussian: Sabatico.
TWISTING SCRIPTURE
Translations
alter key texts, making it seem the first followers behaved in a new pattern,
resting on “Sun-day” rather than the Shabath.
The KJV says “first day of the week”, making it appear the disciples met in this pattern. They promote the idea that “Sun-day” supersedes the Shabath.
Here is the KJV:
Act 20:7, 8: And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
And there
were many
lights in the upper chamber where they
were gathered together.
In
the Greek it does not say “the first day of the
week”, but rather “first
Sabbaton”
(Greek transliteration form, “Shabath”).
The words “day of
the”
are added by translators.
The context is ignored, and it is made to seem that
Paul was officiating at a “Sun-day” meeting.
“Break
bread”
refers to a fellowship meal.
It was at the close of the Shabath they came together
because Paul
was departing the next morning,
explaining the “lamps” in
the upper room.
Paul spoke to them for hours, even past midnight.
This
day
was the “first
Sabbaton”
in the count to
Shabuoth mentioned later
in the chapter:
Act 20:16:
“For Paul had
decided to sail past
Ephesos, so that he might lose no time in Asia, for
he was hurrying to be at Yerushalayim, if possible,
on the day of Shabuoth (now
called Pentecost)".
Shabuoth
is the morrow after the 7th Shabath (Greek, "Sabbaton"),
counted from the day after the weekly Shabath
during Unleavened Bread,
called First-fruits
(a shadow of
Yahusha’s resurrection).
Paul
was intending to be in Yerushalayim in order
to observe Shabuoth,
the anniversary of the giving
of Torah at Sinai. How “legalistic” of him, eh?
ANOTHER KJV EXAMPLE
Revelation
1:10:
" I was in the
Spirit on the Lord's day
"
This KJV passage
is used to steer the idea that
“Lord’s
day”
refers to the first day of the week.
The revelation shown
to him by Yahusha
concerned the future “Day
of Yahuah”
spoken of
by all the prophets. Yahukanon is not telling us
what day of the week it happened to be, but rather
that he was “in
the Spirit”
and shown
the future
Day of Yahuah that
is coming. It’s
prophecy.
REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY
Most
teach that Yahuah has replaced His
people, Yisharal (Israel),
with foreigners.
They
are taught to shun the Commandments
that define sin for us. To them, what was once an
offense, even an abomination, is
considered annulled.
Obeying the Covenant is “legalism”,
the attempt to earn salvation by works.
Faith, without works, is dead. Works
perfects our faith.
Obeying
Yahuah’s Commandments is evidence
that we belong to Him. The Shabath day is a sign
between Yahuah and His people forever.
If Replacement Theology is true, and Yahuah has
replaced His people, then He has broken His Word.
Here’s what He says about it:
“Have you not observed what these people have spoken, saying,
‘The two clans which Yahuah has chosen have been rejected by Him’?
So they have despised My people no more to be a nation before them. Thus said Yahuah, ‘If
My covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the laws of
the heavens and earth, then I would also
reject the descendants of YaAqob and
Daud My servant, so that I should not take of his descend-ants to be rulers over
the descendants of Abraham, Yitshaq, and YaAqob. For I shall turn back their
captivity, and have compassion on them.’ ”
Jer / YirmeYahu 33:24-26
EDICT OF CONSTANTINE,
321 CE:
“On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in
cities rest, and let all workshops be closed. In the country, however, persons
engaged in agriculture may freely and lawfully continue their pursuits; because
it often happens that another day is not so suitable for grain-sowing or for
vine-planting; lest by neglecting the proper moment for such operations the
bounty of heaven should be lost.”
March, 7, 321 CE
(Violation
of this edict called for the death penalty)
YAHUAH GAVE HIS WORD
As
for changing His Covenant, or casting off His people, Yahuah made this promise:
Jer 31:35:
"Thus
said Yahuah, Who
gives the sun
for a light by day, and the laws of the moon and
the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea,
and its waves roar – Yahuah Tsabaoth
is His
Name: ‘If these laws vanish from before Me,’
declares Yahuah, ‘then
the seed of Yisharal shall
also cease from being a nation before Me forever.’
Thus said Yahuah, ‘If
the heavens above could be
measured, and the foundations of the earth
searched out beneath, I would also cast off all the
seed of Yisharal for all that they have done,’
declares Yahuah.”
Jer
/ YirmeYahu 31:35-37
Outsiders must
“engraft” and become partakers
of the promises through the Everlasting Covenant.
At Col. 2:16 we read:
“Let no
one therefore judge
you in
eating or in drinking, or in respect of a feast
or a new moon or Shabaths – which
are a shadow
of what is to come for the Body of
the
Mashiak.”
Shabaths, feasts, and so on are how we are differ
from the beast
system that wants to judge us.
The
festivals are redemptive shadows, a format of
how Yahusha is redeeming His wife, Yisharal. Within the 7-day week we find the sign of
the Eternal Covenant, the 7th
day:
Uyiqara / Lev 23:3: Six
days work is
done, but the seventh day is a Shabath of rest,
a set-apart miqra. You do no
work,
it is a Shabath to Yahuah in
all your dwellings.
We rest in our dwelling on Shabath.
COMMERCE CEASES
Shemoth/Ex 16:29: "See,
because Yahuah has
given you the Shabath, therefore He is giving
you bread for two days on the sixth day. Let
each one stay in his place, do not let anyone
go out of his place on the seventh day."
Yahuah explained how to observe the Shabath.
We stay
in our place,
and observe the day in our
dwelling,
resting. Catholicism ordered weekly
attendance for all laity (people) under pain of
mortal sin on Sunday,
but Yahuah said no such
thing even for His Shabath day. We may meet
together for study and praise on any day, include
ing Shabath, if it
is within a Shabath
distance
(Acts 1:12). We are ordered to meet together 3
times in a year, at the festivals of Yahuah—Dt 16.
CATHOLICISM’S MARK OF
AUTHORITY
The Catechism
of Catholic Doctrine states:
“QUESTION:
Which is the Sabbath day?
ANSWER: Saturday is the Sabbath day.
QUESTION:
Why do we observe Sunday in
stead of Saturday?
ANSWER:
We observe Sunday instead of Sat-
urday because the Catholic Church, in the
Council of Laodicea (AD
365) transferred
the
solemnity from Saturday to Sunday.”
Catholic Record," London/Ontario, Sept. 1, 1923:
"Sunday is our mark of authority. The church is above the Bible,
and this transference of Sabbath observance (to Sunday) is proof of that fact."
H. F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons:
"Of course the Catholic Church claims that the
change was her act... And the act is a MARK of
her ecclesiastical authority in religious things."
WHAT IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST?
It’s here, and it might be on you. It has a purpose,
and is related to “buying
and selling”.
There is a riddle at
Revelation 13 involving buying and selling, and a
mark
of a beast allows those who obey the beast to buy
and sell whenever
they like. To solve the riddle,
we have to correctly interpret the words
wisdom
and
beast,
and how buying
and selling
is related to a
mark.
Essentially there is a distinction drawn between those
who engage in commercial
activity,
and those
who do not engage in it.
The riddle has to be interpreted by those having wisdom.
What is “wisdom”?
Pro 9:10:
“The fear of Yahuah is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the
set-apart One is understanding.”
Those who know Yahuah possess wisdom and understanding because they have His
instructions for living:
His Torah.
They are not lawless, so they obey (worship) Yahuah. They have a
sign
that marks them as Yahuah’s people. The sign between Yahuah and His people
forever is the 7th day of each week, the Shabath (Sabbath, Ex. 31:16,
17, Ezek. 20:12). Shabath is a word that means “cease”. Commercial activity
comes to a halt. Someone might say, resting on the Shabath day is 'Judaizing',
we're not under the law.
It’s
the penalty of
the law we’re not under, Yahusha took that penalty for us. No mention of a
change in the Commandment exists in Scripture, but Catholicism claims the change
made by Constantine is their "mark"
of authority. When asked about the end of days, Yahusha said
"And pray that your flight does not take place in winter or on the Shabath."
(Mt. 24:20)
He wasn't referring to Constantine's Day
of the Sun,
Sun-Day. NekemYah (Nehemiah) was the mayor/governor of Yerushalayim when Koresh
allowed the Yahudim to rebuild the city after 70 years of captivity in Babel.
Read chapter 13 and note how people were engaging in trade on the Shabath, and
why he put a stop to it. Commerce is forbidden on the Shabath under penalty of
death. The beast system made it law to work on
the Shabath; so who’s your daddy
- Rome
(the beast), or Yahuah?
THE RIDDLE at
Revelation 13 is unsolvable for
those who do not have wisdom.
Those without wisdom are unable to interpret the number of the beast, and so are
looking for chips andbarcodes -neither
of which are violations of any Commandments. Engaging in commercial
activity on
the Shabath day clearly marks a
person as being a servant of the beast, the primary scheme of the
dragon. The
“forehead” is the repository of our thinking; the “right hand” is ouroutward
behavior,
revealing what is in our “forehead”. Our obedience
of Torah is
the sign we
serve Yahuah. If we engage in commerce on Shabath, we serve the beast. The
beast is set up asprincipalities and powers over
all nations under its authority, given to it by the dragon (serpent).The
beast seeks worship, obedience, and compliance, setting itself against Yahuah’s
Torah.
The
beast endeavors to misdirect all people away
from Torah, and hide the true Name of
salvation, and His Word (wisdom), misleading the nations. Those without the
beast’s mark
do not
buy and sell by their own
choice, not the beast’s. Why
would some choose to not buy and sell, and
who are they? They
are Covenant keepers, the Natsarim.
What or
who is the beast?
It operates in 3
echelons of
control:
clergy,
nobility
(rulers), and
common people
(laity).
To "measure" or "calculate" the wrong day for Shabath is
the main objective. Those who adhere to the “Sun-day Sabbath" can "buy and sell"
(on the true Sabbath).
Those
who do
not buy
and sell have calculated (interpreted) “the
number”
correctly, and therefore do not profane the true Sabbath. The beast doesn't
prevent anyone from buying and selling, wedecide
to not buy and sell. Those who do not have the mark of the beast cannot buy and
sell, but only on the Sabbath, the 7th day of each week. They choose to obey Yahuah
-
and
do not serve (worship) the beast.
YAHUSHA’S BRIDE PREPARES
Here is our warning before the Day of Yahuah:
“Remember the Torah
of Mosheh,
My servant,
which I commanded him in Horeb for
all Yisharal –
laws and right-rulings. See, I am sending you
AliYahu the
prophet before the coming of the great and
awesome day
of Yahuah. And
he shall turn the hearts
of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the
children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the
Earth with utter destruction.” Malaki
4:4-6
Who understands this?
The Torah
of Mosheh is
the very thing most are
told to avoid, and all we hear is “legalism!”
when
obedience is mentioned. What if we were to be found
obeying His
Commandments when He returns?
How tragic could it be? Obedience is the fruit He
is
looking for, and especially so from His bride.
She may have many spots and wrinkles, but she is
preparing herself for her Bridegroom.
