Psalm 2
Why do the gentiles rage1, And the peoples meditate emptiness? Footnote: 1Acts 4:25-26.

The sovereigns of the earth take their stand, And the rulers take counsel together,
Against ‫ יהוה‬and against His Messiah, and say,

“Let us tear apart Their bonds, And throw away Their ropes from us.”

He who is sitting in the heavens laughs, ‫ יהוה‬mocks at them.

Then He speaks to them in His wrath, And troubles them in His rage, saying,

“But I, I have set My Sovereign on Tsiyon, My set-apart mountain.”

“I inscribe for a law: ‫ יהוה‬has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have brought You
forth.

‘Ask of Me, and I make the gentiles Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth Your
possession.

‘Break them with a rod of iron, Dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

And now, be wise, O sovereigns; Be instructed, you rulers of the earth.

Serve ‫ יהוה‬with fear, And rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest He be enraged, And you perish in the way, For soon His wrath is to
be kindled.

Blessed are all those taking refuge in Him.

Psalm 1
Blessed is the man who shall not walk in the counsel of the wrong,

And shall not stand in the path of sinners, And shall not sit in the seat of scoffers,

But his delight is in the Torah of‫ יהוה‬Yahweh, And he meditates in His Torah day and
night.

For he shall be as a tree Planted by the rivers of water,

That yields its fruit in its season, And whose leaf does not wither, And whatever he
does prospers.

The wrong are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind blows away.

Therefore the wrong shall not rise in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of
the righteous.

For ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wrong comes to
naught.

wide – and the way is broad – that leads to destruction, and there

gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles?

This book, The Narrow Path, is inspired by the teachings of Scriptures

from the set-apart Spirit of Yahweh. He calls us all because He loves
us all but not everyone answers His calls. Yahoshua says that He is the
Good Sheppard and His flock knows His voice. This is a testimony of
my lessons taught by our Eternal Rabbi, Yahoshua. The ISR, or
International Scripture Institute 1998, The Holy Name Bible revised by
A. B. Traina through the Scripture Research Association, Inc. 2007, and
the King James Bible concordance are the Scriptural sources quoted in
this document. For electronic copies of these bibles you can get them
online free at http://www.isr-messianic.org/ and www.e-sword.net, or
from the Tiny Bible project at ggodard.free.fr.

My testimony could start with an explanation that I have always been a

person who seeks the Truth Path. I sought it in many places but never
felt I truly found it. Then, one day I “felt” Yahoshua tell me in my heart
to get my bible because I was going to need it. It was like a trumpet
blast in my spirit. Out of the blue a thought just spoke to me. Some
may say that I thought it to myself but those are the voices of doubt. I
no longer listen to those voices of doubt. So, I got it and started
reading anything not knowing what to read. A week later I found out
that the baby I had been carrying died in the womb. I was devastated
and so was my husband. I was working for the American Embassy in
Paris, France but my work contract was ending so I put my resume
online in the States and to my surprise a company wanted to hire me.
So out of faith, I got on an airplane and moved back home. My French
husband stayed there, sold our apartment, packed up and sold things
that we couldn’t use in the States and got his visa and arrived five
months later. It was difficult to be separated all that time because we
are each other’s best friend and yet he was so supportive and pulled
through like I never could have expected.

Almost immediately my thirst for the Savior, our Creator was

unquenchable. I had attended many Christian churches in the past,
5
Lutheran, Catholic, non-denominational, Baptist, you name it but they
all seemed to be a business and it seemed like there is a truth that is
ignored or hidden. When I arrived back in the States, I started going to
a local church with a co-worker and liked the music and the happy and
thought-provoking messages. Plus I knew that I had to repent and ask
forgiveness for so much wickedness in my life. I knew my path was just
beginning and I was convinced that my miscarriage was due to my sin.
Now I see it was a part of the plan that Yahweh had for my life.

My husband and I lived life in the States going to churches, donating

money to charities really wanting to know more, wanting to help
others, and allow Yahweh to use us for His Will. However, we had that
odd feeling like this just wasn’t “it.” I conceived a child and right before
she was born, my heart started changing. I no longer wanted to be that
feminist career woman. I wanted to be a mother raising her child 100%
of the time and to raise her child actively and biblically; well, as best to
my ability of course. My husband and I also started to notice that the
churches we were attending started to all look differently in our eyes.
The Kodesh (set-apart/holy) Spirit started opening our eyes to things
like a woman going before a large wooden cross and kneeling down
before it praying deeply. The verses Exodus 20:4-5, “ You do not make
for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of that which is in the
heavens above, or which is in the earth beneath, or which is in the
waters under the earth, you do not bow down to them nor serve them.
For I, ‫ יהוה‬your Elohim am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the
fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those
who hate Me.” I always thought this was a contradiction since we were
not supposed to have objects or symbols of worship, yet here it is to
my disbelief. I am not judging anyone, I mean, I had a cross around my
neck at one point like everyone else and a fish on the back of my car,
not knowing where that tradition came from. I finally realized and
acknowledged that it just wasn’t in accordance with the commands of
Yahweh. Deep in my heart I knew it for a long time but just kept
wrestling with it, ignoring that little voice of “you know this isn’t right”.

Another moment of realization was when a pastor of a church focused

an entire sermon on tithing and at the end held a piece of paper in
front of the congregation and told people that if they signed it they had
entered into a contract with “God” and that if they did not honor it, He
would know. It was the most blatant form of arm twisting to get money
I had ever seen in a church.

Other times I felt like when we were singing songs, it seemed like we
were singing to the choir itself or to a wooden cross all lit up with stage
lights. My husband said he could no longer stand the commands to
bow your head, lift your head, say this prayer, pay money to us, etc. It
was really not that much different than a catholic church. I think one
expression that really got me some times was when I heard myself
saying we were going to church. If the church is the assembly of
Yahoshua, His Body, then how can you go there? You are a part of it.
6
We were starting to ask ourselves if this wasn’t a part of that wide path
to destruction but we had no idea how narrow and straight our path
would become!

This booklet is a personal testimony about the discovery of truth from

my experiences and learning through the Spirit of Yahoshua, Yahweh.
Now is a good time to say to all of you who are reading this booklet
that I am not picking on anyone, nor placing condemnation on anyone
or group specifically, or even purposefully trying to offend but speak as
truthfully as possible as a witness of Yahoshua’s teachings and works
in my life. I realize that as I learn things I may realize deeper truth and
will update this book as I learn. In no way do I consider myself to be
more righteous than anyone else nor am I trying to sell you salvation
but just simply share my understanding of the Truth I feel I have found.
I mean no disrespect to any religion or non-religion. My aim is simply
Truth and a deeper relationship with our loving Father Yahweh, which
is a journey that I am so grateful to have embarked upon. It has taken
me a while because as I learn something new spiritually, it seems that
Yahoshua tests me in my faith through application and obedience in
the physical. Sometimes it takes a while for lessons to sink in enough
that I actually apply them in my life. I am not self-righteous but excited
to share what I learn. I often wonder why someone didn’t tell me this
truth and think that if more of us speak truth, lies won’t be so
treacherous.

For as much as I learn I always feel I do not do enough applying in my

life which is what I am working on, there is always room for
improvement. This I share with you to confirm that I am not a hypocrite
telling others one thing and doing another, but like many characters in
The Scriptures, make mistakes and have much room for improvement;
who doesn’t? I feel like a child whose father is teaching her important
lessons but I keep testing what I was taught to see if it’s really what I
believe. Enough consequential testing and I may finally learn! It is
possible that my booklet will anger some people, for others it may not
even mean anything, and for some it will be refreshing. No matter how
you view this information I hope it will help you soften your heart and
not be afraid to question the religious traditions in which you
participate; you may very well end up taking a second look at yourself,
your beliefs, and your salvation. I know I have learned from writing
this. I never stop learning and I hope I never do. If you get nothing else
from this writing, I hope that you remain awake and sober, as
Yahoshua suggests to us and that we should not fall asleep or give up
hope of His coming.

A Hebrew, not a Greek

For two years my spouse and I learned a lot of truths after we decided
to take some time to stay home, read our bibles without the influence
of modern religion and listen for the voice of our Teacher, Rabbi;
Yahoshua. In other words take that trip out of Babylon. My husband
started learning things that rocked my core beliefs and he made me
down right angry at first for some things he told me that the Kodesh
Spirit showed him.

For example, he said, “I think Yahoshua is Yahweh in the flesh”. Oh

boy, I did not have much religious training but I was a trinity believer
through and through. However, I also didn’t know why I believed in a
teaching that wasn’t in the bible but was in pagan religions. Then my
husband would ask me questions and I would be so determined to
prove him wrong that the more I investigated it, the more I saw that
the teachings in the churches seemed to twist the Scriptures into a
direction of the message of the day rather than for what it really says.
There are major discrepancies from what pastors were teaching and
what was written in the Bible. I learned that what he was learning and
seeing what was written in the 9th chapter of the book of Ibrim
(Hebrews) about Yahoshua being the fulfillment of the Ark of the
Covenant as well as the eternal temple for Yahweh. The beauty in this
is that we no longer need to go to worship in a temple but have that
access to our Father from any location on earth and we no longer need
to sacrifice animals but our praises are our slaughter offerings today
(Hebrews 13:15 Through Him then, let us continually offer up a
slaughter offering of praise to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our lips,1
giving thanks to His Name. Footnote: Or “bulls of our lips” - See Hosh. 14:2.). Also note how
1

Noah was also in an ark!). My husband and I both were beginning to

understand things written right in front of us in our copies of The Holy
Scriptures that when we go to church, we may not see because we are
constantly being talked to during a sermon and therefore never able to
quiet the mind to “hear” what the Spirit has to say to us. We need to
remember that Yahoshua said that we should call no one Rabbi, or
Teacher, because only One is our Teacher now, Matthew 23:8.

Today we hear of many conspiracies and theories of conspiracies. Yet,

of all the historical and modern conspiracies that I heard and read
about over the past few years nothing could have prepared me for
what I am about to share with you. I decided to write this first because
I think it is the most important thing you will ever read. It deals directly
with your salvation and is a hot topic. The Savior’s Name used today is
not that which was given 2,000 years ago as was instructed in the
following verses. His Name is Yahoshua not Jesus. His Name was never
Jesus. Jesus is an invented name by man. Not divine, but a
“transliteration” disguising the True Name to call upon for deliverance
8
from sin, a decoy, a false messiah. When I learned this I felt like I got
knocked out, a K.O. spiritually. How is this possible? Why? How do we
know what His Name is?

Mat 1:21 “And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call
His Name ‫ יהושע‬Yahoshua for He shall save1 His people from
their sins.” Footnote: 1This is the precise meaning of the Heḇrew of His Name.
Mat 1:22 And all this came to be in order to fill what was
spoken by ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh through the prophet, saying,
Mat 1:23 “See, a maiden shall conceive, and she shall give
birth to a Son, and they shall call His Name Immanu’ĕl,” which
translated, means, “Ěl with us.”

Isa 7:14 “Therefore ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh Himself gives you a sign;H226:

Look, the maiden conceives and gives birth to a Son, and shall
call His Name Immanu’ĕl1. Footnote: Ěl with us. See also Matt. 1:23.

Our Messiah was a Hebrew, spoke Hebrew, and fulfilled prophecy of El

coming to be among us. For clarification purposes, the term El in
Hebrew means, “Mighty One” but some people refer to EL as “God”
but I will further discuss my findings on that later. The Messiah is a sign
given to us and Yahoshua is not separated from Yahweh the Father as
the man-made doctrine of trinity so teaches, nor is the Spirit for that
matter. Just consider this phrase we all learn: “me, myself and I”. That
is who you are but are you more than one person. If I want to talk to
you I am not going to separate your body and soul from your mind but
rather talk to the whole of you.

Make note and remember that Yahoshua is given to us as a sign in

Isaiah 7:14. What does Yahweh mean that He is given as a sign? Here
is the translation of the word “sign”: from Hebrew according to
Strong’s concordance:

H226 ‫' אות‬ôth oth: Probably from H225 (in the sense of appearing);
a signal (literally or figuratively), as a flag, beacon, monument, omen,
prodigy, evidence, etc.: - mark, miracle, (en-) sign, token.

So Yahoshua is a mark or a sign; or perhaps He is both. Let us contrast this

with Revelation 13:15 and 16 that discuss the image of the seven headed
beast and his mark.

Rev 13:15 And there was given to him to give spirit to the
image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both
speak and cause to be killed as many as would not worship the
image of the beast.

Rev 13:16 And he causes all, both small and great, and rich and
poor, and free and slave, receiveG1325 G846 a markG5480 in their right
hand,G5495 or in their foreheads:G3359

9
To understand who the decoy messiah is we should contrast the
Scriptures. The image of Yahweh is Yahoshua so who is the image of
the beast? He is going to follow the same pattern because Satan likes
to try to copy Yahweh. We receive Yahoshua and choose Him and
choose the covenant of Yahweh through the saving sacrifices of
Yahoshua and His resurrection. Conversely, the anti-messiah will also
be received voluntarily. Who/what are the churches asking you to
receive? Is the anti messiah the mark, image, and/or name of the
beast? That is for us to try to understand.

The other point is that Yahoshua is El with us. There is no trinity in the
bible; you will not find that term anywhere. Yahoshua is our El and His
name means, “Yahweh is Salvation” or “I am He who Saves.” There are
many resources discussing some of the pagan doctrines in today’s
churches. In the appendix, I will offer some suggested readings.

Act 4:12 “And there is no deliverance in anyone else, for

there is no other Name under the heaven given among
men by which we need to be saved.”

It is in His NAME that we find salvation based on our belief and faith in
Him who Saves. It is not in the actual uttering of His Name because
you could say it all you want but if you have no faith or do not walk in
faith, then it is a mute point. His Name is Yahoshua and not anything
else. His Name is His Character, the meaning of His Name. If you
believe in the meaning of His Name it means that you believe it is
Yahweh who saves you. For this reason, there is ONE name, not many
versions or transliterations; one name, one Messiah, one Deliverer and
the root of that salvation is Yahweh, the One that without Him, nothing
would even exist.

Pro 30:4 Who has gone up to the heavens and come down? Who has
gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a
garment? Who established all the ends of the earth? What is His
Name, And what is His Son’s Name, If you know it?

What is the father’s Name and What is the Son’s Name? Yahoshua said
He came in His Father’s Name. John 5:43 shows the spiritual and literal
name and authority that Yahoshua portrayed from the Father.

Joh 5:43 “I have come in My Father’s Name and you do not

receive Me, if another comes in his own name, him you would
receive.1 Footnote: 1“Another,” another one, was indeed a prophecy by ‫ יהושע‬of
another one, probably the same one we read of in 2 Thess. 2:4.

One could devote a month in Scripture researching the importance of

His Name. So much so that it is even in His commandments to honor
His name and not blaspheme it. What do you think it means when
Yahoshua said to pray to the Father, “Hallowed be Thy NAME?”

10
Isa 12:4 And in that day you shall say, “Praise ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh , call
upon His Name; make known His deeds among the peoples,
make mention that His Name is exalted.

His name is exulted and the Father’s Name is in the Son’s Name. The
Father’s Name is pronounced something like Yahweh. I do not want to
say 100% on how to pronounce Hebrew but the research I have seen
confirms it. We are each responsible to continuously seek truth and
examine ourselves. Your soul is your responsibility and no one else’s.
When you are not sure what to believe pray earnestly for
understanding and turn your heart and life to Yahoshua. That is how I
have come to understanding of this information; through prayer,
repentance, obedience, and through previous testimony by others like
the people at the ISR or A. B. Traina who restored the Names in The
Holy Name Bible. I am not claiming self-righteousness at all but hope
to continue growing and striving to be righteous. It is my goal that one
day my dream for us all to be happy with good and reject the bad can
be fulfilled by Yahoshua when He returns carrying His Name and His
Father’s Name and sealing it in our minds and our renewed bodies.

In the Holy Name Bible, revised by A. B. Traina he quoted the 1872

Smith’s Bible Dictionary which stated, “The substitution of the word
Lord is most unhappy; for, while it in no way represents the meaning of
the sacred name, the mind has constantly to guard against a confusion
with its lower uses, and, above all, the direct personal bearing of the
name on the revelation of God…is kept injuriously out of sight”. It is
clear that the uses of the incorrect titles and terms to replace the
Names of Yahoshua and Yahweh should be corrected and considered
by believers to be an important issue.

There is a lot of debate surrounding the name of the Father as well as

the name of the Son, and even if it should be Yahoshua, Yahushua,
Yehshua, etc. It seems to me that Yahoshua is the most accurate,
especially when you think of saying, HalleluYah, or Praise you Yah!
Additionally there is a piece of scripture which confirms the Father’s
Name is Yah:

“Psa 68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that
rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him
(this is the KJV but before the J was used in English it would have
been Yah). This verse is nice because it also confirms why Yahoshua
is not Yehoshua.”

The Son’s Name means salvation and we are to call on His Name for
forgiveness and deliverance of sin. I have been asked if it means that
someone is not saved if they use the modern name, Jesus. I personally
am not the One who will search the minds and hearts on judgment day
so I will certainly not condemn nor judge anyone for that matter.
However, I will point you to some Scriptures and share my feelings
about them and share why I repented from using that name.
11
Some folks say that the name Jesus is a transliteration of Yahoshua
(Joshua in the Old Testament) or Yeshua (the Aramaic version). The Old
Testament was transliterated about 300 years before Yahoshua was
born on earth. During this transliteration, the scribes changed Joshua’s
name, which in Hebrew is Yahoshua to Y’shua in Aramaic which
removes the Yah part and coincides with the time of the Babylonian
exile which brought about the Babylonian Talmud. This is the era that
they decided that Yahweh’s Name is too Holy to utter out loud. To this
day Jews do not pronounce His Name but refer to Him as Ha Shem,
“The Name”.

Isa 45:5 ‘I am ‫יהוה‬, Yahweh, and there is none else – there is no

Elohim besides Me. I gird you, though you have not known Me,
Isa 45:6 so that they know from the rising of the sun to its setting
that there is none but Me. I am ‫יהוה‬, Yahweh and there is none
else,
Isa 45:22 “Turn to Me and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For
I am Ěl, and there is none else.
Isa 45:23 “I have sworn by Myself, a word has gone out of My
mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, so that to Me every
knee shall bow, every tongue swear.

As you can see here, Yahweh is showing that He is the ONLY El and the
ONLY Savior. That makes more sense now when we know that
Yahoshua means Yahweh saves and we know that Yahoshua is El with
us. The plan starts to be clearer when we shuffle out the confusion of
religions, traditions, and false teachings. In other words we can
understand better when we come out of Babel, or confusion. It seems
like when we search for Truth, we start somewhere and get called out
of that entryway or outer court and hopefully invited into our Father’s
house.

When the scribes transliterated the old testament into Greek, they
changed Joshua, or Yehoshua, to Iesous. This created precedence for
the future name of Yahoshua and is a great stumbling block for many
because people rationalize using the wrong name due to this
transliteration.

Where did they get Iesous from? Some people say that by taking
certain sounds from the Hebrew and applying them into Greek.
However, say allowed, Yehoshua, then say Iesous. How similar is that?
Joshua would be what we use for Yahoshua. So why is the savior called
Jesus?

After doing some homework on the Greeks in various encyclopedias I

got the impression that they were a bit arrogant and prided
themselves in perfection of language, philosophy and writing. They
wrote their letters perfectly, and with those letters they constructed
many myths. As a believer in Yahoshua I do not enjoy having to read
12
about dead idols but for the sake of shearing lies from the truth, I
researched it.

There are also other people who say Jesus came from the name Zeus,
who is incidentally considered by the Greeks the father of their
mythological god stories. However, I do not think the name is directly
from the name Zeus. In the mythological stories there is a descendent,
a daughter name Iaso Ἰασώ or Ieso Ἰησώ . Ieso is the goddess of
healing along with other sisters in the stories. Another transliteration
for this pagan goddess is Ιάσονος or Jason. When I entered into Google
Translor the first part of the name Jason translated as meaning,
“Ιάσονος” which means “Iasonos” and “Ιάσο” or “Iaso”. This is
significant because even today we can see the root origin of a common
name like Jason.

Along my journey for the quest for Truth on Yahoshua’s Name, I found
many articles refuting why the name Iesous or jesus is not an
abomination. I read these articles too so that I can see all
documentation lest I become a hypocrite by not considering what
others say. One of these articles admits that the false name used for
Yahoshua’s Name comes from ieso and that the jews changed in over
250 years before Yahoshua came to earth as Yahweh’s Tabernacle.
They not only admit these two facts, but also confirm that it was an
adopted tradition of error passed on and never corrected. The author
writes, “Other people also named "Yeshua" appear as "Iesous" or case
variant of "Ieso" in numerous places of the LXX [this is the abbreviation
for the Hellenized Greek translation of the Old Testament] including...
Nehemiah 2:40, 3:2,8,9,4:3,5:2, 8:33, 10:18, 13:19,
17:7,11,39,43,18:7,17, 19:4,5, 20:10, 21:26, 22:1, 7,8,10,24,26”
(http://home.comcast.net/~jovial/learn/mc/Iesus.htm). Although this
person is arguing why the name jesus is not derived from zeus, it
strengthens what Yahoshua is teaching me to share with people; His
Name is not jesus, it is derived from ieso and it was changed to be
hidden from us all 250 years before Immanuel’s prophecy was fulfilled
through Yahoshua the Nazereen.

Other people state that the name was transliterated and that it was
not possible to write Yahoshua’s Name in Greek. However, I copied and
pasted together the letters in Greek and plugged them into the Google
translator (a very helpful tool) as, “Ιασονια” and it says it is translated
as, “Jason” (see below):

Jason

Normally, if you write Ιασ you get the Yah sound, then ον produces the
“su” (the Greeks don’t have a “sh” sound so “s” is the best we get),
the finally the ending of His Name “ah” sound can be written as “ια”.
How did I find these differing sounds? I looked at a copy of the
Septeguintude and found the word for HalleluYah: “ἀλληλούΐα” and
took the sounds for “Yah” (ΐα) and “iah” (ού) then looked at the sounds
for Yahoshua’s Name in the New Testament “Ἰησοῦς” and applied the
“su” (σοῦ): Ια…σον…ια.

I think it is very interesting that we can write something very close to

Yahoshua which in English would sound like Yahsuia but it is translated
as Jason instead. However, when you type in the name for Jason to
translate into Greek, you get “Ιάσονος” or “Ιάσονας” which would
sound more like Yahsous or Yahsouas.

Several historians agree that the Hellenization which occurred in

Jerusalem not only changed their culture but also their names. Jason is
one such name and the name, “Joshua became Jason or Jesus”. (Carl
Siegfried & Richard Gottheil, Hellenism). Siegfried and Gottheil’s article
confirms that the names Joshua, Jason, and Jesus have a common
denominator: hellenizaiton of names to glorify their deities by using a
name their people would recognize, Ieso. We see now that this is
absolutely not a conspiracy from any religious movement but reveals
that the Hellenized name of Messiah is an insulting error to our
Heavenly Father, Yahweh. Now that we know the truth, we can correct
our error passed on to us through hundreds of years of traditions.
Instead of calling on a name that means goddess of healing, we can
call on the Name that means, Yah Saves!

14
I also did some brief studying on Greek grammar; I am not an expert
but read that in order for a man’s name to be masculine it has to have
“us” added to the end. So, it looks like they took the Greek goddess of
healing and added “us” to get Iesous, Ἰησοῦς, spelled Iota Ἰ, Eta η,
Sigma σ, Omicron ῦ, Sigma ς.

Compare:

Ἰησ

Ἰησ + οῦς

Therefore you get Iesous, a newly created false god who would be the
decendent of zeus if you believed satan’s Greek mythological family
tree. From Iesous, Latin altered it to Iesus then when the letter J was
added to our alphabet in the 1600s it became Jesus. This name is not
the name of the savior as mentioned above. This change and this
religion based on these deceptions are the decoy for the real Gospel. A
decoy is, “A decoy is usually a person, device or event meant as a
distraction to conceal what an individual or a group might be looking
for. Decoys have been used for centuries most notably in game
hunting, but also in wartime and in the committing or resolving of
crimes” (wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decoy).

Consider if you went to Greece, what would you tell them your name
is? Would you have to change your passport when you travel there
because your name is not written in Greek? What if I told you I drove a
Ford sedan? If I go to another country they would know what a Ford is,
the branding that the company uses. That would not be changed so
why should the name of the savior be changed? A name is how
someone’s character is defined. That is why you love to know what
someone’s name means. It seems easier for those of us who cannot let
go of our religious traditions because it might make us or others
around us sad to simply say that it doesn’t matter what name we use
as long as our intentions are good.

Let us remember something very sobering:

Exo 20:7 “You do not bring1 the Name of ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh, your Elohim to
naught, for ‫ יהוה‬does not leave the one unpunished who brings His
Name to naught. Footnote: 1Or lift up, or take.

This is the third commandment that we should not blaspheme, curse,

or bring His Set-Apart Name to nothing. That is exactly what happened
with the name of Yahoshua. Jesus means nothing; it is an invented
word based on a pagan goddess of Greece. Yahoshua means life. I for
one choose life over confusion, or Babel.

15
Do you have to refer to the Father’s Name as Yahweh? Some say you
do, based on the Scriptures and their warnings. Some folks have
replaced His Name for fear of dishonoring it. The Pharisees of old tried
to hide the Name of the Father but Yahoshua pointed His people right
back to our Father. We are all a loving family and soon we will live with
our Father in His kingdom.

Why is it so terrible to call the Father “God” or “Lord”?

Jer 23:26 “Till when shall it be in the heart of the prophets? – the
prophets of falsehood and prophets of the deceit of their own
heart,
Jer 23:27 who try to make My people forget My Name by their
dreams which everyone relates to his neighbor, as their fathers
forgot My Name for Baʽal.

I want to show you what I found regarding “Ba’al”:

Ba'al (pronounced: [baʕal]; Hebrew: ‫( )בעל‬ordinarily spelled Baal in

English) is a Northwest Semitic title and honorific meaning "master" or
"lord" that is used for various gods who were patrons of cities in the
Levant, cognate to Akkadian Bēlu. A Baalist or Baalite means a
worshipper of Baal. (If you worship LORD, and Lord means Baal,
are you worshiping Baal)?

"Ba'al" can refer to any god and even to human officials; in some texts
it is used as a substitute for Hadad, a god of the rain, thunder, fertility
and agriculture, and the lord of Heaven. Since only priests were
allowed to utter his divine name Hadad, Ba'al was used commonly.
[doesn’t this sound like what the Pharisees did? They replaced
Yahweh’s Name with Adoni, and now Yahoshua with Lord; I wonder if
this may have been their influence.] Nevertheless, few if any Biblical
uses of "Ba'al" refer to Hadad, the lord over the assembly of gods on
the holy mount of Heaven, but rather refer to any number of local
spirit-deities worshipped as cult images, each called ba'al and
regarded by the writers of the Hebrew Bible in that context as a false
god. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baal

When you consider that Ba’al is idolatry and it’s more modern version
is actually Lord, I personally felt it was not appropriate to call Yahweh,
creator of everything Ba’al or Lord especially when His Name is to be
exulted. How does addressing Him as a common, dirty name set Him
apart and above all of the evil of satan’s world? Isn’t His Name to be
hallowed as Yahoshua directs us in Mat 6:9 “This, then, is the way you
should pray: ‘Our Father who is in the heavens, let Your Name be set-apart,”
(ISR version) or Mat 6:9 “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father
which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” (KJV)

But what does Hallowed mean? From Stong’s concordance it means to

bless or keep clean: HEBREW “H6942, ‫ קדש‬qâdash kaw-dash': A primitive
16
root; to be (causatively make, pronounce or observe as) clean (ceremonially
or morally): - appoint, bid, consecrate, dedicate, defile, hallow, (be, keep)
holy (-er, place), keep, prepare, proclaim, purify, sanctify (-ied one, self), X
wholly.”

GREEK G37 ἁγιάζω hagiazō hag-ee-ad'-zo: From G40; to make holy, that is,
(ceremonially) purify or consecrate; (mentally) to venerate: - hallow, be holy,
sanctify.

You will see that to hallow or bless something means the same in
Hebrew from the old testament to the Greek in the New Testament.

Now explain to me how using a pagan title keeps His Name clean or
pure? Please remember this verse for later.

Rev 13:14 And he leads astray those dwelling on the earth because
of those signs which he was given to do before the beast, saying to
those dwelling on the earth to make an image to the beast who was
wounded by the sword, yet lived.

Lord: Meaning of the word LORD:

“People have often used the term 'lord' in religious contexts,

where, The Lord refers to God in Judaism or Islam, or to God,
Jesus, or the Holy Spirit in Christianity. In many Christian Bibles
(such as the King James Version), the Hebrew name YHWH (the
Tetragrammaton) is rendered LORD (all caps) or LORD (small
caps). This usage follows the Jewish practice of substituting
the spoken Hebrew word 'Adonai' (translated as 'Lord') for
YHWH when read aloud.[2] Following practice in Hebrew, the
Septuagint mainly used the Greek word Kyrios (Greek: Κύριος,
meaning 'lord') to translate YHWH. As this was the Old Testament
of the Early Church, the Christian practice of translating the divine
name as 'Lord' derives directly from it.

In Hindu theology, The Lord or Svayam Bhagavan refers to the

concept of absolute representation of the monotheistic God.
Other religious uses of the word Lord include:
• Ba'al, or Baal, is a Northwest Semitic title meaning 'lord', used
for various gods and local spirit-deities. In some texts, the term
refers to Hadad, the lord of the divine assembly whose name only
priests were allowed to speak. References to Baal in the Hebrew
Bible, such as the prophet Elijah's confrontation with Baal's priests,
usually correspond to local gods rather than to Hadad.
• Bel meaning 'Lord' is a common title of the Babylonian deity
Marduk.
• En meaning 'Lord' as in Sumerian deities Enki and Enlil.
• In Buddhism it refers to the Buddha and in Jainism to the
Mahavira.
• The name of the god Adonis may derive from the Hebrew
word for 'lord'.
17
 • In the Wiccan religion, the male god is also referred to as
'The Lord' and the female as 'The Lady'.
• Dark Lord is a title usually used in religion to refer to the
Devil and other demons or evil gods. The phrase does not occur in
the Bible. “
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord#Religion

Where does this tradition of using the term Lord instead of Yahweh’s
Name? The generation of vipers generously handed that tradition down
to the children of the New Covenant in Yahoshua. In fact, they replaced
Yahoshua’s Name with a false name as well as the false title. “The
Tetragrammaton appears 6,828 times (see 'Counts' in the Yahweh
article) in the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia edition of the Hebrew
Masoretic text. This name is first mentioned in the Book of Genesis
(2.4) and in English language bibles is traditionally translated as "The
LORD"’ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_God_in_Judaism). As you
can see, the Name of our Creator is so important that He has it in His
own Word, the Sacred Scriptures 6,828 times! Yet, each of these
occurences are blotted out for the pagan title of lord. What an insult to
us and to Him. We have the right to know our Creator, to know His
Name, to call upon His Name. Why should we not use it and respect it?

The enlightening article discussing where this blasphemy comes from

states that, “most modern denominations of Judaism teach that the
four-letter name of [Elohim], YHWH, is forbidden to be uttered except
by the High Priest in the Temple. Since the Temple in Jerusalem no
longer exists, this name is never said in religious rituals by Jews, and
the correct pronunciation is disputed. Orthodox and some Conservative
Jews never pronounce it for any reason.” They do not pronounce His
Name and they forbid it. Not only has the Catholic Church replaced His
Name with the same pagan titles, they are also forbidding the use of
His Name despite the fact that Yahweh says to call on His Name for
salvation!

His Name is in Yahoshua’s Name, Yah, so they don’t have a problem

using the false name of jesus because THAT does not have the Father’s
Name, therefore it is a useless name. “Kelly Dobbs-Mickus, senior
editor at GIA Publications, told CNS Aug. 11 that the policy, which
dates to 1986, was based not on Vatican directives but on sensitivity to
concerns among observant Jews about pronouncing the name of God.
As an example, she cited Heinrich Schutz's "Thanks Be to Yahweh,"
which appears in a GIA hymnal under the title "Thanks Be to God." It is
evident that the most popular church in the world is now blotting out
the Father’s Name to appease false Jews. Interesting. Now all religions
can use the same generic titles like god or lord and it won’t matter
because no one will be offended because they are meaningless and
powerless titles.

18
However, pronouncing the Name of Yahweh the Father and His Son
Yahoshua will get people upset really fast because these Names are
above all names and the most powerful. Nancy Frazier O'Brien goes on
to state in her Catholic News Service article that the church has a
TRADITION of never pronouncing Yahweh’s Name or even
TRANSLATING it into the BIBLE! ‘"Avoiding pronouncing the
Tetragrammaton of the name of God on the part of the church has
therefore its own grounds," the letter said. "Apart from a motive of a
purely philological order, there is also that of remaining faithful to the
church's tradition, from the beginning, that the sacred
Tetragrammaton was never pronounced in the Christian context nor
translated into any of the languages into which the Bible was
translated."’

What a confession by the church. Why in the world would it be a

tradition to not proclaim the Name of salvation?

Rev 19:1 And after this I heard a loud voice of a great crowd in the
heaven, saying, “Halleluyah! Deliverance and esteem and respect
and power to Yahweh ‫ יהוה‬our Elohim!
Psa 37:39 But the deliverance of the righteous is from Yahweh ‫יהוה‬,
Their strength in time of distress.

You see in Revelation 19:1, a loud voice of a great crowd in heaven

praised out loud, Yahweh and His Name!

Psa 40:16 Let all those who seek You Rejoice and be glad in You; Let
those who love Your deliverance always say, “ Yahweh ‫יהוה‬
be exalted!”
Psa 40:17 But I am poor and needy; Let ‫ יהוה‬think upon me. You are
my help and my deliverer; O my Elohim, do not delay!
Psa 62:6 He alone is my rock and my deliverance, my strong tower; I
am not shaken.

Do you see what is said in Psalm 40:16? If you love your Father, if you
seek Him, ALWAYS SAY HIS NAME, and exalt His Name! He is our
Deliverer/Savior.

Psa 79:9 Help us, O Elohim of our deliverance, For the sake of the
esteem of Your Name. And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For
Your Name’s sake!
Psa 79:10 Why should the gentiles say, “Where is their Elohim?” Let
the vengeance of the outpoured blood of Your servants Be known
among the gentiles, Before our eyes.
Psa 79:11 Let the groaning of the prisoner come before You.
According to the greatness of Your arm Preserve those appointed to
death.
Psa 79:12 And repay to our neighbours sevenfold Their
reproach, into their bosom, With which they have reproached
You, O Yahweh ‫יהוה‬.

19
 Psa 79:13 And we, Your people and the sheep of Your pasture, We
give thanks to You forever; From generation to generation we show
forth Your praise.

His people give Him praise. His people have a relationship with Yahweh
through the offering Yahoshua made for us. We who seek Him and
Love Him will honor HIS NAME, not hide it out of shame or political
correctness so as to not offend an evil generation that is judged by
their denial and hatered toward Him.

Zep 3:9 “For then I shall turn unto the peoples a clean lip1, so that
they all call on the Name of Yahweh ‫יהוה‬, to serve Him with one
shoulder. Footnote: 1Or language.
Zep 3:10 “From beyond the rivers of Kush my worshippers, the
daughter of My dispersed ones, shall bring My offering. (YAHOSHUA is
His offering to cleanse us forever)
Zep 3:11 “In that day you shall not be put to shame for any of your
deeds in which you have transgressed against Me, for then I shall
remove from your midst your proud exulting ones, and you shall no
more be haughty in My set-apart mountain.
Zep 3:12 “But I shall leave in your midst an oppressed and poor
people, and they shall trust in the Name of Yahweh ‫יהוה‬.

Rom 10:13 For “everyone who calls on the Name of ‫ יהוה‬shall be

saved.”

May we never blot out Yahweh’s special and beautiful Name. May
we never become so cowardly that we fear man’s traditions more
than the esteem of Yahweh. May it never be tolerated. May there
be enough people who love Him enough to say His Name proudly
and purposefully. May we stop using generic terms just to
appease religions who despise Him and hide His Name and His
Good News just for greedy and evil gain.

Hiding His Name reminds me of the parable of the Talent.

Mat 25:14 for it is like a man going from home, who called his own servants
and delivered his possessions to them.
Mat 25:15 “And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to
another one, to each according to his own ability, and went from home.
Mat 25:16 “And he who had received the five talents went and worked with
them, and made another five talents.
Mat 25:17 “In the same way, he with the two also, he gained two more.
Mat 25:18 “But he who had received the one went away and dug in the
ground, and hid the silver of his master.
Mat 25:19 “And after a long time the master of those servants came and
settled accounts with them.
Mat 25:20 “And he who had received five talents came and brought five
other talents, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me five talents. See, I have
gained five more talents besides them.’
Mat 25:21 “And his master said to him, ‘Well done, good and trustworthy
servant. You were trustworthy over a little, I shall set you over much. Enter
into the joy of your master.’
Mat 25:22 “Then he who had received two talents came and said, ‘Master,
you delivered to me two talents. See, I have gained two more talents besides
them.’
20
 Mat 25:23 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and trustworthy
servant. You were trustworthy over a little, I shall set you over much. Enter
into the joy of your master.’
Mat 25:24 “And the one who had received the one talent also came and
said, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not
sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed,
Mat 25:25 and being afraid, I went and hid your talent in the
ground. See, you have what is yours.’
Mat 25:26 “And his master answering, said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy
servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I
have not scattered seed.
Mat 25:27 ‘Then you should have put my silver with the bankers, and at my
coming I would have received back my own with interest.
Mat 25:28 ‘Therefore take away the talent from him, and give it to him who
possesses ten talents.
Mat 25:29 ‘For to everyone who possesses, more shall be given, and he
shall have overflowingly; but from him who does not possess, even what he
possesses shall be taken away.1 Footnote:1See Lk. 8:18.
Mat 25:30 ‘And throw the worthless servant out into the outer darkness –
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

Denying His Name reminds me of the parable of the 10 maidens

and their lamps:

Mat 25:1 “Then the reign of the heavens shall be compared to ten
maidens who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Mat 25:2 “And five of them were wise, and five foolish.
Mat 25:3 “Those who were foolish, having taken their lamps, took no
oil with them,
Mat 25:4 but the wise took oil in their containers with their lamps.
Mat 25:5 “Now while the bridegroom took time, they all slumbered
and slept.
Mat 25:6 “And at midnight a cry was heard, ‘See, the bridegroom is
coming, go out to meet him!’
Mat 25:7 “Then all those maidens rose up and trimmed their lamps.
Mat 25:8 “And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us of your oil,
because our lamps are going out.’
Mat 25:9 “But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, indeed, there would
not be enough for us and you. Instead, go to those who sell, and buy
for yourselves.’
Mat 25:10 “And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and
those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the
door was shut.
Mat 25:11 “And later the other maidens also came, saying,
‘Master, Master, open up for us!’
Mat 25:12 “But he answering, said, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do
not know you.’
Mat 25:13 “Watch therefore, because you do not know the day nor
the hour in which the Son of Aḏam is coming,

You may ask yourself if using the term God is acceptable to Yahweh.
Again, we must ask ourselves why we need this term and where it
comes from. If someone called you by the wrong name, would you turn
around in response? No because it’s not your name. I prefer to use His
Right Name and the Hebrew term, El or Elohim. Why? It is believed that

21
the term “God” originates with Gad, or Fortune. All answers are in
Scripture so here is a Scripture and an excerpt from Stong’s
concordance:

Isa 65:11 “But you are those who forsake ‫יהוה‬, Yahweh, who
forget My set-apart mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and
who fill a drink offering for Meni.

In the King James Version, Gad is interpreted as, “for that troop,H1408”
which illustrates the importance of investigating much deeper than
that which is seen on the surface. Our “dumbed-down”, modern
English/American superficial language and way of life causes a lot of
confusion and as translations of bibles become more modern so too
the translation is ever more lost. That is why it is so important to
investigate yourself the roots of words and double meanings and
symbolism throughout the bible for deeper understanding. You reap
what you sew. If you seek answers by wanting the cliff note version
of Scripture you won’t understand half of it.

H1408, ‫ּגד‬, gad, gad

A variation of H1409; Fortune, a Babylonian deity: - that troop.

Meni: H4507, ‫ מני‬,menîy men-ee'

From H4487; the Apportioner, that is, Fate (as an idol): -
number.

Now you can see that what is written on our money is in “fortune” we
trust. Makes sense, eh? A. B. Traina of the Holy Name Bible writes, “the
characteristic appellation of the Most High, Elohim, has been
substituted by the Assyrian deity Gawd, or God in English, and is
repudiated by Yahweh in Isaiah 65:11 [and] truly expresses what
Yahweh thinks of Christian worship” (Preface, V). I agree with the
states of Mr. Traina, expecially His call to restore Yahweh and
Yahoshua’s Names and repent from the errors of our cultural and
religious traditions of paganism. Traina goes on to state that, “the
substitution of the Names of Yahweh and Yahoshua by the names of
the pagan deities of the nations has brought immeasurable harm. Such
names as Lord, God Jesus, and Christ in no way represent the meaning
of the Name revealed by the Most High to Moses and the ancient
Hebrew leaders. By employing these names the people unknowingly
turn the worship of Yahweh into that of idols and actually ascribe the
benevolent characteristics of the Might One of Israel to the pagan
deities”.

If you want to have a deeper relationship with Yahoshua, search Him

out. Fall in love with Him because that is what He wants. If our hearts
are passionate for Him, and we want to know and ask Him to show us
the Truth, He does. You can read everything in the bible, or books like
this, and even innumerous articles on the Internet and still not see it
22
unless Yahweh opens your eyes to see and your ears to hear. If we
want this Truth He gives it lovingly but our proud has to slumber and
our humility awaken.

Here is something to ponder if you don’t think it is odd that our

Savior’s name was changed to something that doesn’t sound at all like
Yahoshua.

Why didn’t they Hellenize Satan’s name? You will see below that the
sound of the names from Hebrew of the old testament to Greek in the
new testament are recognizable.

1Ch 21:1 And SatanH7854 stood upH5975 againstH5921 Israel,H3478 and

provokedH5496 (H853) DavidH1732 to numberH4487 (H853) Israel.H347
H7854, ‫שטן‬ׂ , śâṭân, saw-tawn'
From H7853; an opponent; especially (with the article prefixed)
Satan, the arch enemy of good: - adversary, Satan, withstand.

Rev 20:2 AndG2532 he laid hold onG2902 theG3588 dragon,G1404 that

oldG744 serpent,G3789 whichG3739 isG2076 the Devil,G1228 andG2532
Satan,G4567 andG2532 boundG1210 himG846 a thousandG5507 years,G2094

G4567, Σατανᾶς Satanas sat-an-as'

Of Chaldee origin corresponding to G4566 (with the definite article
affixed); the accuser, that is, the devil: - Satan.

You can hear that saw-tawn and sat-an-as are easily recognizable. But
Yahoshua and Iesous are not at all recognizable. Whose Name do you
call on for salvation, do you know it? There is no greater name under
heaven or earth so who are the Greeks to change it? The question is,
now that YOU know what will you do? Remember that Yahoshua is the
path to life, and that path is narrow.

In conclusion, I find most people in society tell me it doesn’t matter

what name they use, or even what title they use. Some prefer to use
another name that a culture created. It doesn't bother them. I am not
judging anyone but I honestly can say it bothers me to dismiss it too
quickly because of some versus I see in Scripture. Remove the
rationalization in the mind and just read the Scriptures. Then answer
the question for yourself, is it important to call on the Name Yahoshua
for deliverance of sin?

Rev 19:13 and having been dressed in a robe dipped in blood – and His
Name is called: The Word of ‫יהוה‬. Footnote: 1John 1:1 & 14.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with
Elohim, and the Word was Elohim.
Joh 1:9 He was the true Light, which enlightens every man, coming into
the world.
23
Joh 1:14 And the Word became flesh and pitched His tent1 among
us, and we saw His esteem, esteem as of an only brought-forth of a
father, complete in favor and truth. Footnote: 1An indication that His birth was
during the Festival of Booths.

Haggai 2:5 …the Word that I covenanted with you when you came
out of Mitsrayim (Egypt), and My Spirit1 is remaining in your midst, do
not fear!’ Footnote: 1His Word and His Spirit work together, they are in unity.

Mat 1:21 “And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call His Name
Yahoshua ‫יהושע‬ for He shall save1 His people from their sins.” Footnote:
1This is the precise meaning of the Heḇrew of His Name.

Mat 1:22 And all this came to be in order to fill what was spoken by
‫ יהוה‬through the prophet, saying,
Mat 1:23 “See, a maiden shall conceive, and she shall give birth to a
Son, and they shall call His Name Immanu’ĕl,” which translated,
means, “Ěl with us.”

You see that Yah is the One Who Exists, Who created us and Who loves
us. He is with us and His Word, commands, torot; right-rulings are also
all with us through the fulfillment of Yahoshua, His Son…to believe in
Him is to believe in Yahweh’s Torah…what a great celebration and
wonderful news for us! However, there are some who do not celebrate
it because their hearts are hardened toward the freedom Yahweh gives
all of His children. It looks as if the greed for wealth and control over
people blinds folks who don’t love Yah and therefore hate Yahoshua’s
Name for what it means for us. It could be compared to when a new
manager comes to the team, the subordinates don’t usually like the
new authority figure.

Act 4:11 “This is ‘the stone which was rejected by you builders, which
has become the chief cornerstone.’
Act 4:12 “And there is no deliverance in anyone else, for there
is no other Name under the heaven given among men by which
we need to be saved.”

Consider this again: Yahoshua's Name means something special. If

Elohim, creator of you and I, and the world we live in said His Name
should be called Yahoshua, don't you think out of respect, we ought to
do it? Consider especially since now we know that the Hellenization
movement wrongly changed it. It is one thing to follow something we
know nothing about but once we receive knowledge of something, a
choice must be made. The choice will be one direction or another but it
is impossible to know and not make a choice.

The plan from the Pharisees was to try to block the Truth.

Act 4:17 “But in order that it spreads no further among the people, let

24
us strongly threaten them, to speak no more to anyone in this Name.”
Act 4:18 And they called them and commanded them not to speak at
all nor to teach in the Name of ‫יהושע‬.
Act 4:19 But Kĕpha and Yoḥanan answering them, said, “Whether it is
right in the sight of Elohim to listen to you more than to Elohim, you
judge.1 Footnote: 1See 5:29.
Act 5:29 And Kĕpha and the other emissaries answering, said, “We
have to obey Elohim rather than men.1 Footnote: 1See 4:19.

25
Sound it out in Scripture: HaShem

I feel it is important and would like to clarify something about the

Father’s Name from my own meager understanding. There are some
people criticizing the pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton as
‘Yahweh’ because they feel it means Jupiter (Jove/Iove). It seems to me
that the Jove is the root of the incorrect version of ‘Jehovah’. There are
many credible scholars who will support the pronunciation of ‘Yahuah’
or ‘Yahuweh’ but the key here is to understand the meaning of His
Name. It is important to note that some people may choose to
phonetically spell the Set-Apart Names differently in different
languages depending on what makes the correct pronunciation in their
language but should not alter the Name of The Most High or pass
judgment of condemnation because Yahoshua said that we will be
judged according to how we judge others.

One other reason that some support the pronunciation of the Father’s
Name as ‘Yahuah’ and not ‘Yahweh’ is because of other Names in
Scriptures. This section is not about quibbling over pronunciations
because I feel that arguing can defeat the message of Yahweh’s Will
for us to love each other as a family but I have been asked to clarify
why I pronounce ‘Yahweh’ instead of ‘Yahuah’. This is why I included
this small section of what I have learned about the Father and Son’s
Names through my own original studies. Happily, the answers are
always found in Yahweh’s Word which is the best Witness for us and is
the best tool for seeking Truth, scratching well below the surface of
assumptions. Let’s take a quick look at the Names in the bible that
people refer to as a foundation for their claims of pronouncing
‘Yahweh’ as ‘Yahuah’.

These are some names compared to Yahweh used to support the

pronunciation Yahuah (the Tetragrammaton is ‫)י ה ו ה‬:
Noah, H5146 ‫ נח‬nôach, no'-akh: The same as H5118; rest; Noach,
the patriarch of the flood: - Noah.

You can see the spelling of these names don’t fit with the spelling of
Yahweh’s Name exactly. Look at the ending of the names above and
compare with the Tetragrammaton.

A final argument purported by some is that Yahweh and Yahoshua do

not sound the same and that they should because the Son carries His
Father’s Name. However, Yah is the Name coming from HaYah, the “I
AM”. “Almighty Yah” is Yahweh, and Yahoshua is “Yah Saves/Delivers”.
It is not rocket science requiring a PHD in Theological Astrophysics, in
other words, it doesn’t mean the names have to rhyme especially for
an English ear when it is a Hebrew language; the root of the Father’s
Name is in the Son’s Name. Let’s look at some of the Hebrew from
Strong’s Concordance to find names that have Yah in them (remember
Hebrew is read and written from right to left in stead of English left to
right).

One lovely name is Obadiyah (means “serving Yah”): ‫עבדיה‬

Another is Yonah, or Jonah yônâh, yo-naw' (which comes from the

word, dove): ‫יונה‬

Ironically, the singular form of the word God in Hebrew is Eloah and is

not spelled like Yahweh’s Name. ‫אלוה‬ ‫אלה‬ ('ĕlôahh

'ĕlôahh, el-o'-ah, el-o'-ah). Here is a vowel point forcing the ‘ahh’
sound. Even with the vowel points added by the Rabbis, Yahweh’s
Name is not written with the same ending sound(there is more
discussion about the Rabbis changes in the section about Hellinzation):

‫הָוה‬
ֹ ְ‫י‬
You can see that the ending of these names are not identical but
Obadiah has ‘iah’ at the end with the pronunciation like ‘Yah’ whereas
Yonah sounds like “ah” at the end, with no ‘Yah’ sound. Some people

are claiming that since the ending letter of these names is the ‫ה‬
that the end of Yahweh should be pronounced as an “ah” sound like
Yonah.
However, the Hebrew letter that makes the Yah sound is the

combination of ‫יה‬
like in ObadYah. This actually is the beginning of
Yahweh’s Name but does not mean that the ending of Yahweh’s Name

has to sound like “ah” as some claim since the letter ‫ י‬is not before
letter‫ה‬ . In actuality the ‫ ו‬is before the ‫ ה‬making the ending
different than Yonah.

Remember that Yahweh’s Name is written like this in Hebrew: ‫יהוה‬

27
Do you see that the last two letters of Yahweh’s Name are ‫? ו ה‬
It seems to me that the last two letters are different than the last two
letters in Obadiah and Jonah so those pronunciations should be
different than Yahweh’s Name. How should His name sound? I found
some examples of names in Scripture using Strong’s Concordance in
the e-Sword and Tiny Bible tools which actually match the ending of
Yahweh’s Name.

Ninewĕh ‫נינוה‬ “nı̂ynevêh”, “nee-nev-ay'” has the same exact sound

and letters as the last two letters in Yahweh’s Name!‫ וה‬this is the
ending of Nineweh and this is the ending of Yahweh’s Name ‫ וה‬.

Another is ‫ שוה‬Shawĕh , “shâvêh, shaw-vay”.

You can see it’s the same and the suggested pronunciation is “ay” not
“ah” as is Yahweh, which for an English speaker could also be written
as Yahway phonetically but should sound the same. If Yahweh was
supposed to be pronounced ‘Yahuwah’ wouldn’t the last two letters
have been like Yonah’s name or even Noah’s name: ‫נח‬, (nôach, no'-
akh)? Yet Noah and Yonah do not present the same last two letters of
Yahweh’s special Name and therefore do not share the same
pronunciation. I humbly ask the people proclaiming that Yahweh’s
correct pronunciation to be evil as some are doing, may want to double
check that they are not following a newly created decoy of deception.

Now let us look at Yahoshua’s Name and consider the pronunciation of

His Name. Look at the name Hoshĕa ‫ הושע‬hôshêa‛, ho-shay'-ah we
can see a part of Yahoshua’s Name there, especially since Hoseah
means, “deliverer”. ‫הושע‬
Now take the Yah part of the Father’s Name since His Name is in the
Son’s Name and put it with the name which means deliverer and you
have Yah the Deliverer! If we were to say it really slowly perhaps it
would sound like “Yahwshua” but said quickly it sounds more like when
we phonetically write it Yahoshua. You see the Yahw + Shua = ‫יהו‬
‫שע‬
It would make sense to have that rounded ‘o’ or ‘w’ sound, depending
on how you pronounce your ‘o’s or ‘w’s , since ‘Yahw’ from Yahweh is
the beginning of His Name.

If you compare in English the sound from the word, “awe” to “ah” it
sounds the same so you could say Yahoshua is written the way it
should sound. We can see it as it written in Strong’s Condordance word
28
H3091 as the Messiah’s Name based on the Old Testament name of

Joshua ‫יהושוע‬ ‫יהושע‬

We can imagine that if the transliteration of Joshua was possible into
Greek then Latin and finally English then why in the world would we
not also do the same for the Messiah’s Name as was foretold in the
following Scripture?

Mat 1:21 “And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call
His Name ‫ יהושע‬for He shall save 1
His people from their sins.”
1
Footnote: This is the precise meaning of the Heḇrew of His Name.

It would seem that Yahoshua’s Name was correct during His time but
as religion evolved and married with other religions to appease people
and make political peace they allowed a decoy name to appear and
has carried down to us in this age. That is something to consider, why
do people say it is impossible to transliterate Yahoshua to English from
Hebrew through Greek and Latin yet it was done for Joshua’s Name?
Even then, they changed it to Yehoshua to take out the Yah from
Yahweh’s Name. There is much more information on that in the
chapters dealing with Hellenic cultural influences.

How WONDERFUL is Yahweh? He answers our prayers; from the

simplest to the complex. In a continuation of seeking the true and
correct pronunciation of our Father’s Name and His Messiah’s Name, I
found some websites which caused me to greatly question what I know
to be true. Although this is difficult it is important to allow our faith to
be tested so that we may learn more and confirm or correct our ways
and knowledge. I asked Yahweh to please confirm to me His Correct
Name although I know He revealed to me already it’s Yahweh. In fact
one day while discussing this issue with jehovah witnesses when they
showed me the Tetragrammation, I said, isn’t that pronounced Yahweh
not jehova? I look back at that, in the moment, I had no clue about the
decoy messiah or the conspiracy of the Pharisees to hide His Name!
It’s amazing that He just put that in my mind like that and a couple of
years later, I am typing this sentence! Powerful stuff!

What I discovered today is a confirmation from a historical standpoint

of the traditional pronunciation of Yahweh’s Name. HalleluYah, thank
you Father! It seems that the orthodox and accepted form of
pronunciation for Yahweh is Yahweh. Now the other dilemma is why
and where the tradition came from to hide it or replace it with titles?

I hope this information on the pronunciation of the Father and Son’s

Names has been as informative for you as it has been for me. I am
grateful for the understanding that Yahweh gives us through His Son
Yahoshua our Master and Messiah. HalleluYAH.

Peace, shalom.

The Civilized Influences

If you research the origins of the Greek name Iesous, you will see that
history claims it is a name rooted in Hebrew. For example, Strong’s
Concordance states, “G2424, Ἰησοῦς, Iēsous, ee-ay-sooce' : Of Hebrew
origin [H3091]; Jesus (that is, Jehoshua), the name of our Lord and two
(three) other Israelites: - Jesus.” However, Iesous is not Hebrew in
origin; it is Greek found in the translation of the Hebrew Torah, or
Septuagint.

The Septuagint is the transliteration of the Hebrew Old Testament to a

Greek version. 1 This was carried out in Alexandria, Egypt per the
request from Ptolemy II Philadelphus 2 during the time of Alexander the
Great, 356-323 BC. It is important to understand some things about
who influenced these translations to understand the motives. Ptolemy
II Philadelphus was the son of Ptolemy I Soter, which means Ptolemy
the savior, and ruled from 323 BC to 283 BC,
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy_I_Soter). The interesting question
I have is if Ptolemy wanted the name Yahoshua transliterated to Iesous
because Yahoshua means Yahweh is Salvation since Ptolemy was
called soter or savior. The changing of the Savior’s Name to mean
nothing allowed Ptolemy himself to be the only one in his mind with
that title of savior for men. It also paved the path toward religious
control and confusion in the future. When you read the section below,
please remember the discussion earlier about the incorrect Greek
translation of Yahoshua to Jason.

Ptolemy was a sun worshipper who, “staged a procession in Alexandria

in honor of Dionysus led by 24 chariots drawn by elephants and a
procession of lions, leopards, panthers, camels, antelopes, wild asses,
ostriches, a bear, a giraffe and a rhinoceros. According to scholars,
most of the animals were in pairs - as many eight pairs of ostriches -
and although the ordinary chariots were likely led by a single elephant,
others which carried a 7 foot tall golden statue may have been led by
four” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy_II_Philadelphus ). In fact
there were many who were in charge of Hellenizing the Jews and the
translation of the old testament was one part of that process.
According to Geoffrey W. Gromiley in the International Standard Bible
Encyclopedia, page 1021, Antiochus IV Epiphanes, (175-164 BC)

See the appendix for detailed information

“Ptolemy II Philadelphus (Greek: Πτολεμαῖος Φιλάδελφος, Ptolemaĩos Philádelphos, which means "Ptolemy the sister-loving,"
309 BC–246 BC), was the king of Ptolemaic Egypt from 283 BC to 246 BC. He was the son of the founder of the Ptolemaic kingdom
Ptolemy I Soter and Berenice, and was educated by Philitas of Cos. He had two half-brothers, Ptolemy Keraunos and Meleager, both
of whom became kings of Macedonia (in 281 BC and 279 BC respectively). Both died in the Gallic invasion of 280-279 BC (see
Brennus).” SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy_II_Philadelphus

30
executed his plan to Hellenize the Jews. He says that, “Greek alters
were set up at many places and the worship of Greek gods was
required. He made Jason, who had Hellenized his name from Joshua,
high priest on Jason’s promise that he would vigorously pursue the
program of Hellenization.” He goes on to describe the general
Apollonius as occupying Jerusalem who built a new fortress, the Akra
on top of the citadel of David. Only Greek names were to be used and,
“an image of Jupiter was set up on the alter and the courts of the
temple were filled with Greek soldiers.”

I do not like to discuss pagan deities but I think that since paganism is
so engrained into our culture and everyday life, it is important to shed
some light on it. Therefore, let us examine what the image of Jupiter
may have looked like and what it meant then and how it affects us
now. Jupiter is described as, “In Roman mythology, Jupiter or Jove
was the king of the gods, and the god of sky and thunder. He is the
equivalent of Zeus in the Greek pantheon. He was called Iuppiter (or
Diespiter) Optimus Maximus ("Father God the Best and Greatest"). As
the patron deity of ancient Rome, he ruled over laws and social order.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter_(mythology). The wikipedia article
also goes on to state, “The name of the god was also adopted as the
name of the planet Jupiter, and was the original namesake of Latin
forms of the weekday now known in English as Thursday[6] but
originally called Iovis Dies in Latin, giving rise to Deus in Portuguese,
jeudi in French, jueves in Spanish, joi in Romanian, giovedì in Italian,
dijous in Catalan, Xoves in Galego, Joibe in Furlan.”

Jupiter was also hellenized into Egyption mythology after Rome took
over Egypt and refered to him as jupiter ammon. Yet another example
of the hellenization of names that took place. This pagan idol is
worshipped as the father of all other idols and even a planet and day of
the week is named after it. I believe also this is where the name
“Jehova” comes from for the Jehova witnesses. This is a major
stumbling block for people trying to look on the Internet for the True
Name (please see the chapter about HaShem, The Name). Also
consider the names of all the planets, months, and days of the week.
They are all names of pagan idols, so each time you say a name for
these planets, you are invoking the name of a pagan idol. As I
personally learn these things, I am shocked because it is directly
against the Bible that we all want to obey and understand. The same
thing happened when the people of Yah went into exile of Babylon. We
are still scattered and forced to live among the “world”.

When we see these idolatrous images every day we become

desensitized and simply accept them as no big deal. What about our
buildings and all the statues in our government buildings, schools, and
public places? Is it possible that our culture is so pagan that if we are
not careful we could be participating in idolatry of Greco-Roman idols?
I wanted to see what the Jews must have experienced when they were
31
occupied and Hellenized so I looked at the temple for Jupiter. This
temple was located on the Capitoline Hill.

This reminds me of American buildings in Washington D.C. on our

Capitol Hill.

Here is the United States Supreme Court building:

If you do just the tiniest bit of research, you will find that within our
government buildings are paintings and statues of these idols, being
worshiped and glorified. This is the system we are immersed into. We
can see that when the Romans took over, they Hellenized cultures and
this disease spread like a plague. When you consider the Jews who
were Hellenized and forced to adopt Hellenized, pagan names and
temples of Jupiter were erected on top of alters. Please reconsider this
quote from above, “an image of Jupiter was set up on the alter and the
courts of the temple were filled with Greek soldiers.” Our culture has
buildings with these images and our capitol hill is even named after the
main location of the temple of Jupiter, the Capitoline Hill! I just can’t
believe it, can you? This is how powerful traditions are which is why
Yahweh wants us to carry on His traditions not those of the world
which doesn’t know Him.

It makes sense that the modern abominations include ancient Egyptian

obelisks (which may be what are referred to in the Scripture as sun
pillars), Greek and Roman statues and symbols as well as the ancient
32
Babylonian influences since those were the major empires of the world
in ancient times. Hellenization was considered the “civilized” way to
be. In fact something we don’t study in history is the damaging effects
Hellenization has ravaged upon the True Gospel and the Name of
Salvation. Today “Hellenized” is called “Western” or “Anglicized”.

When we consider the fact that the Hellenization of Yahrushalem lead

to the creation of an idol in the place of the Messiah, it must cause us
to change our way of thinking. This is historical fact that can be studied
for confirmation. The Hellenization of the Old Testament plus the
ravages from Constantine’s idolatrous contributions to the New
Testament almost certainly can be referred to as abominations of
desolation.

Is this Jupiter mentioned in our bible? Yes.

Acts 14:11- And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up
their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us
in the likeness of men.

Acts 14:12- And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because
he was the chief speaker.

Acts 14:13- Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought
oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the
people.

Jupiter is defined via Strong’s Concordance as, “Zeus, dzyooce:

Of uncertain affinity; in the oblique cases there is used instead of it a
(probably cognate) name Dis deece which is otherwise obsolete; Zeus or Dis
(among the Latins Jupiter or Jove), the supreme deity of the Greeks: - Jupiter.”

Many books of the bible have been Hellenized in the old and new
testaments and altered again by Constantine the Great. Several names
have been Hellenized thereby removing the Name of our Savior! These
traditions have been passed down to us and we do them without
question. Now is the time to question. The Law of Yahweh is also being
taught as unnecessary in many modern mega churches and
lawlessness is abound today all around us. Yahweh writes the Law in
our hearts through Yahoshua when we turn toward Him and away from
our errors.

So far on this journey we have discovered how and why the name of
our savior was changed. The Hellenization of the Jews preceding
Yahoshua caused an error going forward that we are warned of in
Scriptures.

Luk 11:50 so that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the
foundation of the world shall be required of this generation,

33
 Luk 11:51 from the blood of Heḇel (Abel) to the blood of Zeḵaryah
(Zachariah) who perished between the altar and the Dwelling Place. Yea,
I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.
Luk 11:52 “Woe to you learned in the Torah, because you took away the
key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were
entering in you hindered.”
Luk 11:53 And as He was saying this to them, the scribes and the
Pharisees began to oppose Him fiercely, and to draw Him out on many
subjects,
Luk 11:54 watching Him, and seeking to catch Him in whatever He says,
so as to accuse Him.

What would be the key of knowledge but the Father Himself and His
Commands, of whom the Pharisees and Scribes hid and forbade that
people verbally utter His Name. This is one of the major reasons why
they detested Yahoshua’s Name. It has Yah, the Great I AM in it. Notice
also that they sought to accuse Him, just as Satan does, accuse. Below
I have included some verses in Scripture to illustrate the role of locking
and unlocking or authority of Yahweh given to Yahoshua just as He
gave keys to His apostles to have authority on earth over His flock. His
Key is the wisdom He gives us spiritually which can only be obtained
now through faith calling on His Name.

Isa 22:22 ‘And I shall place the key of the house of Dawiḏ on his
shoulder. And he shall open, and no one shuts; and shall shut, and no
one opens. (Yahoshua)

Mat 16:19 “And I shall give you the keys of the reign of the heavens,
and whatever you bind1 on earth shall be having been bound1 in the
heavens, and whatever you loosen1 on earth shall be having been
loosened1 in the heavens.” Footnote: 1Binding and loosening is Heḇrew idiom
for exercising authority (to prohibit and permit).

Luk 11:52 “Woe to you learned in the Torah, because you took away
the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who
were entering in you hindered.” (The Pharisees and their legalism,
judgments, and hiding of the Father’s Name).

Rev 1:18 and the living One. And I became dead, and see, I am living
forever and ever. Amĕn. And I possess the keys of the grave and of
death.

Rev 3:7 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia write,

‘He who is set-apart, He who is true, He who has the key of Dawiḏ, He
who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens, says this:

Rev 9:1 And the fifth messenger sounded, and I saw a star from the
heaven which had fallen to the earth. And the key to the pit of the
deep was given to it.

Rev 20:1 And I saw a messenger coming down from the heaven,
having the key to the pit of the deep and a great chain in his hand.

34
Also, consider the fact that Yahweh will send a delusion so that we will
have to seek His Truth. Why would He do that?

2Th 2:9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of
Satan, with all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,
2Th 2:10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those perishing,
because they did not receive the love of the truth, in order for them to
be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this reason Elohim sends them a working of delusion,
for them to believe the falsehood,1 Footnote: 1Eze. 20:25, John 9:39, John 12:40,
Acts 7:42, Rom. 1:24-28.
2Th 2:12 in order that all should be judged who did not believe the
truth, but have delighted in the unrighteousness.

Perhaps because He despises laziness and may be it’s because

salvation is given to those who love Him and seek Him. Those who
sacrifice the comfort zone to venture out into the wilderness with Him
alone are like the children of Yah did after leaving Egypt. The
wilderness would be to leave the city of religion and rely on Yahweh’s
Spirit to provide to you like He did for the children coming out of Egypt.
The wilderness is relying on Him to provide the everlasting waters to
you and the pure bread rather than relying on religion to feed you
spiritually.

Heb 3:4 For every house is built by someone, but He who built all is
Elohim.
Heb 3:5 And Mosheh indeed was trustworthy in all His house as a
servant, for a witness of what would be spoken later,
Heb 3:6 but Messiah as a Son over His own house, whose house we
are if we hold fast the boldness and the boasting of the expectation firm
to the end.
Heb 3:7 Therefore, as the Set-apart Spirit says, “Today, if you hear His
voice,
Heb 3:8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day
of trial in the wilderness,
Heb 3:9 where your fathers tried Me, proved Me, and saw My works forty
years.
Heb 3:10 “Therefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘They
always go astray in their heart, and they have not known My ways.’
Heb 3:11 “As I swore in My wrath, ‘If they shall enter into My rest...’ ” 1
Footnote: 1Ps. 95:7-11.
Heb 3:12 Look out, brothers, lest there be in any of you a wicked heart
of unbelief in falling away from the living Elohim,
Heb 3:13 but encourage one another daily, while it is called “Today,”
lest any of you be hardened by the deceivableness of sin.
Heb 3:14 For we have become partakers of Messiah if we hold fast the
beginning of our trust firm to the end,
Heb 3:15 while it is said, “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden
your hearts as in the rebellion.”
Heb 3:16 For who, having heard, rebelled? Was it not all who came out
of Mitsrayim (Egypt) , led by Mosheh (Moses)?
Heb 3:17 And with whom was He grieved forty years? Was it not with
those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?

35
 Heb 3:18 And to whom did He swear that they would not enter into His
rest, but to those who did not obey?
Heb 3:19 So we see that they were unable to enter in because of
unbelief.

If we let Yahoshua be our Teacher we will not learn lies. If we believe

that He is our teacher He will teach us through His Spirit.

Joh 15:21 “But all this they shall do to you because of My Name,
because they do not know Him who sent Me.
Joh 15:22 “If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no
sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.
Joh 15:23 “He who hates Me hates My Father as well.
Joh 15:24 “If I did not do among them the works which no one else did,
they would have no sin. But now they have both seen and have hated
both Me and My Father,
Joh 15:25 but...that the word might be filled which was written in their
Torah, ‘They hated Me without a cause.’
Joh 15:26 “And when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you
from the Father, the Spirit of the Truth, who comes from the Father,
He shall bear witness of Me,
Joh 15:27 but you also bear witness, because you have been with Me
from the beginning.

How can you trust what religion is teaching you to be the Truth? We
trust man an awful lot and Scriptures say not to put your trust in man;
you will be disappointed since there are so many liars and cheaters.

2Pe 2:1 But there also came to be false prophets 1 among the people, as
also among you there shall be false teachers, who shall secretly
bring in destructive heresies, and deny the Master who bought
them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. Footnote: 1See Mt. 7:15-23 v.
7-8, and again v. 21.
2Pe 2:2 And many shall follow their destructive ways, because of
whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of,
2Pe 2:3 and in greed, with fabricated words, they shall use you
for gain. From of old their judgment does not linger, and their
destruction does not slumber.

Don’t we see so many confusing false teachings in the church of

Christianity? How many divisions/denominations are there? Yahoshua
often discuses there must be at least two witnesses in agreement in
order for others to believe what they say.

Deu 19:15 “One witness does not rise up against a man concerning
any crookedness or any sin that he commits. At the mouth of two
witnesses or at the mouth of three witnesses a matter is established.

Mat 18:16 “But if he does not hear, take with you one or two more,
that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might be
established.’

36
 2Co 13:1 This is the third time I am coming to you. “By the mouth of
two or three witnesses every word shall be established.”1 Footnote: 1Dt.
19:15.

1Ti 5:19 Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from

two or three witnesses.

Heb 10:28 Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Mosheh dies
without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses.
Heb 10:29 How much worse punishment do you think shall he
deserve who has trampled the Son of Elohim underfoot, counted the
blood of the covenant by which he was set apart as common, and
insulted the Spirit of favor?

There are many books written on the lies and paganism and teachings
that were fabricated out of man’s imagination. The thought of so-called
“pre /mid/post tribulation” rapture or “once saved always saved” are a
couple of things worth while to research in Scripture (any book you
read should verified by Scriptures and even one version of the bible is
not enough anymore due to interpretations in translations and
modernization of translations). This is not the scope of this booklet but
I wanted to give you some things to think about, consider, and pray
about; if you want to learn, pray then seek the Truth.

If you know that paganism has been packaged together with the Good
News of Yahoshua Messiah, but that the Good part has been removed,
what present are you receiving? What are you celebrating? Why do you
feel you have to go back week after week, never feeling full; never
having your thirst quenched? Because it is not the pure water of
Yahoshua; it is filtered city water that will make you sick in the end.
Now you know that Yahoshua’s Name is being hidden from you; you
know that there are many evil preachers making money from you;
selling you lies. You know deep down in your soul something is wrong,
but you just say to yourself, “no church is perfect”.

Why not? Was Yahoshua perfect? Then those who believe in Him have
their sins washed and there should not be so many religions, divisions,
and denominations. It is written in Scripture to not be quarrelsome yet
so many religions are divided and disagree about doctrines of lies.

How can you tell the wolves in sheep’s clothing? Did you see above in
2Peter 2:1 where he writes that they shall, “secretly bring in
destructive heresies?” What are those heresies? Don’t you think that if
they brought them in and said, “by the way we’re lying to you” that
you’d believe or follow them? Of course not, that is why Satan has to
do things in secret. But Yahoshua brings light to all things, even those
in the darkness because His Light overcomes all darkness. The
importance of His Name is right in front of our faces yet until now we
may have never even known we didn’t have the right name. But now
you see the living Light!

37
 Joh 3:15 so that whoever is believing in Him should not perish but
possess everlasting life.
Joh 3:16 “For Elohim so loved the world that He gave His only
brought-forth Son, so that everyone who believes in Him should not
perish but possess everlasting life.
Joh 3:17 “For Elohim did not send His Son into the world to judge the
world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
Joh 3:18 “He who believes in Him is not judged, but he who does not
believe is judged already, because he has not believed in the Name
of the only brought-forth Son of Elohim.
Joh 3:19 “And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the
world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their
works were wicked.
Joh 3:20 “For everyone who is practicing evil matters hates the light
and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed.
Joh 3:21 “But the one doing the truth comes to the light, so
that his works are clearly seen, that they have been wrought in
Elohim.”

Mat 7:22 “Many shall say to Me in that day, ‘Master, Master, have we
not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name,
and done many mighty works in Your Name?’
Mat 7:23 “And then I shall declare to them, ‘I never knew you, depart
from Me, you who work lawlessness!’1 Footnote: 1 See v. 15.

In the KJV verse Mat. 7:21-23 reads:

Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter
into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father
which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils?
and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you:
depart from me, ye that work iniquityG458.

Haven’t you ever wondered what He means by this? It seems clear

when we look at the meaning of Lord that He is referring to people who
are not doing things in His Name but in the title of lord instead.

G2962; kurios, koo'-ree-os kuros (supremacy); supreme in authority, that is, (as noun)
controller; by implication Mr. (as a respectful title): - God, Lord, master, Sir.

Compare this with the title Master that His apostles used:

Mat 8:19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will
follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
G1320: didaskalos, did-as'-kal-os: From G1321; an instructor (generally
or specifically): - doctor, master, teacher.

Here you see that his apostles called Him Master as in Teacher but the
gentiles who Hellenized His Name and His True Gospel and then
38
passed it on to us generations later, call Him lord as in Ba'al. We
should remember that Yahweh prophesied this would happen:

Jer 23:27 who try to make My people forget My Name by their

dreams which everyone relates to his neighbor, as their
fathers forgot My Name for Ba’al.

These two verses tell us that many people will say they did things in
His Name. As discussed, most people don’t even use His Name today,
referring to Him as Master or Lord just like every religion on the planet,
and secondly, this is a section of Scripture which refers to the Torah
and the Prophets and righteousness. The Narrow Path is faith in
Yahoshua and living a righteous life; living the way of Truth in a society
built on lies. However, let us look at what iniquity means in verse 7:23.

First I want to mention that I have been told by a few that I am a

legalist because of my beliefs in using Yahweh and Yahoshua as
opposed to the pagan names and titles, along with the fact that I try to
observe and live righteously according to Yahweh’s commands and
Yahoshua’s teachings. Legalism is something I see a lot of religious
people accusing Torah keepers of. What is legalism? I have been told
that it is when people keep the Torah and do things like observe
biblical feasts, observe the day of Sabbath and other acts that are
found in the first five books of the bible and truly the whole bible.

What does Yahoshua mean here when He talks about iniquity? Have
you ever wondered, what is iniquity? What is evil? There has to be a
measurement or a guideline as to what is right and wrong behavior.
Yes, that is Yahweh’s Law. No, we are not saved by doing the law alone
but Yahoshua forgives our breaking it, or sin. Sin is defined as breaking
the law. Here is the definition given by Strong’s Concordance of
iniquity:

IniquityG458 G458 ἀνομία anomia an-om-ee'-ah: From G459; illegality, that

is, violation of law or (generally) wickedness: - iniquity, X transgress (-ion of)
the law, unrighteousness.

G459 ἄνομος anomos an'-om-os: From G1 (as a negative particle) and

G3551; lawless, that is, (negatively) not subject to (the Jewish) law; (by
implication a Gentile), or (positively) wicked: - without law, lawless,
transgressor, unlawful, wicked.

So why do people call me a legalist? Perhaps because they think or

have been taught that if you delight in Yahweh’s Torah and Yahoshua’s
Commands, that you are putting your faith into the law. However, it is
not the case for me, but I delight in pleasing Yahweh and want to know
Him better and grow deeper into love with Him. I want to live a life of
Truth. I am very far from who I think really does meet Yahweh’s idea of
righteous but my goal is there and I ask Him to work on my heart and
my hands. I share my experiences with you not from a boasting
perspective but from the perspective of hope that you can learn from
39
my mistakes or even delve deeper into the journey with Yahoshua
having benefited from what He has taught me.

Is it easy to walk this Narrow Path? Not as easy as the wide and
popular path but definitely more rewarding! So how can you tell if you
are on this blessed path?

Mat 24:9 “Then they shall deliver you up to affliction and kill you, and
you shall be hated by all nations for My Name’s sake.
Mat 24:10 “And then many shall stumble, and they shall deliver up
one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 “And many false prophets shall rise up and lead many
astray.
Mat 24:12 “And because of the increase in lawlessness, the love
of many shall become cold.
Mat 24:13 “But he who shall have endured to the end shall be saved.1
Footnote:1See 10:22.

An increase in lawlessness will cause love to grow cold. Love is not

as prevalent these days, eh? Not just kindness toward each other,
but toward Yahweh and His Son Yahoshua. Lawlessness causes us
to sin and sin causes our hearts to turn away from Yahweh which
leads us to more sin and sometimes repentance and other times
people completely walk away from the faith of Yahoshua’s
promises. When we know the rules to play by, then there should
be no confusion. However, when the rules have been altered and
different teams play by different rules, confusion and even
cheating can occur. When that occurs the game itself is in
jeopardy. What I am trying to say here with a sports analogy is
that lawlessness creates confusion and division. Today there are
many churches interpreting things as they see it and not as
Yahweh sees things. His Name and His Ways are being lost and no
longer being taught to the next generations. If that happens then
who will carry on His Name and Promises?

Joh 12:46 “I have come as a light into the world, so that no one
who believes in Me should stay in darkness.
Joh 12:47 “And if anyone hears My Words but does not watch
over them, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the
world but to save the world.
Joh 12:48 “He who rejects Me, and does not receive My Words,
has one who judges him: the Word that I have spoken shall judge
him in the last day.1 Footnote: 1See 3:18-19, 7:16.

This booklet will hopefully help you see that the right thing to do is to
find out what light you are following.

2Co 11:13 For such are false emissaries, deceptive workers,

masquerading as emissaries of Messiah.
40
 2Co 11:14 And no wonder! For Satan himself masquerades
as a messenger of light!
2Co 11:15 It is not surprising, then, if his servants also
masquerade as servants of righteousness,1 whose end shall be
according to their works!2 Footnotes: 1Mt. 7:15-23, 2 Peter 2:1-22. 2Mt. 13:41-
42.

Which water are you drinking?

Mar 9:40 “For he who is not against us is for us.

Mar 9:41 “For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My
Name, because you are of Messiah, truly, I say to you, he shall by
no means lose his reward.
Mar 9:42 “And whoever causes one of these little ones who
believe in Me to stumble, it is better for him if a millstone were
hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.

Jas 3:11 Does the fountain send forth the sweet and the bitter
from the same opening?
Jas 3:12 My brothers, is a fig tree able to bear olives, or a
grapevine figs? So neither is a fountain able to make salt and
sweet water.

What bread are you eating?

Mat 16:11 “How is it that you do not understand that I did not
speak to you concerning bread, but to beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees and Sadducees?”
Mat 16:12 Then they understood that He did not say to beware of
the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and the
Sadducees.

1Co 5:6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a
little leaven leavens the entire lump?
1Co 5:7 Therefore cleanse out the old leaven, so that you are a
new lump, as you are unleavened. For also Messiah our
Passover was offered for us.
1Co 5:8 So then let us observe the festival, not with old
leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but
with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
1Co 5:9 I wrote to you in my letter not to keep company with
those who whore.
1Co 5:10 And I certainly did not mean with those of this world who
whore, or with the greedy of gain, or swindlers, or idolaters, since
then you would need to go out of the world.
1Co 5:11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with
anyone called ‘a brother,’ if he is one who whores, or greedy of
gain, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler – not
even to eat with such a one.
41
What name are you calling on for salvation?

Mat 1:21 “And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call His
Name ‫ יהושע‬Yahoshua for He shall save1 His people from their
sins.” Footnote: 1This is the precise meaning of the Heḇrew of His Name.
Mat 1:22 And all this came to be in order to fill what was spoken
by ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh through the prophet, saying,
Mat 1:23 “See, a maiden shall conceive, and she shall give birth to
a Son, and they shall call His Name Immanu’ĕl,” which translated,
means, “Ěl with us.”
…

Mat 12:21 “And the nations shall trust in His Name.”

…it doesn’t say trust in a transliteration, version, idea or feeling of His

Name…it says HIS NAME!...

Mat 6:7 “And when praying, do not keep on babbling like the
gentiles. For they think that they shall be heard for their many
words.
Mat 6:8 “Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows
what you need before you ask Him.
Mat 6:9 “This, then, is the way you should pray: ‘Our Father
who is in the heavens, let Your Name be set-apart,

…Notice He does not say that we should set apart a title or use any
commonly used Name, it should be His Name (not a Hellenized
‘transliterated’ version or pagan title)…

Mat 10:22 “And you shall be hated by all for My Name’s sake.
But he who shall have endured to the end shall be saved.1 Footnote:
1
See 24:13.

…have you ever asked yourself why you are not hated by the world for
His Name? People today enjoy the globalization of religion that
“respects” each religion, title, and doctrine no matter how false. We
should be willing to speak Truth even if it offends the offenders. I can
assure you many have been shaken by the Truth of Yahoshua’s Name.
It is the most powerful Name on earth! Satan will tremble at His Name
and so do satan’s messengers.

Rev 15:4 “Who shall not fear You, O ‫יהוה‬, and esteem Your Name?
Because You alone are kind. Because all nations shall come and
worship before You, for Your righteousness has been made
manifest.”

Rev 14:1 And I looked and saw a Lamb standing on Mount

Tsiyon, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having

42
 His Father’s Name1 written upon their foreheads. Footnote: 1Some texts
read: having His Name and His Father’s Name.

Rev 19:11 And I saw the heaven opened, and there was a white
horse. And He who sat on him was called Trustworthy and True,
and in righteousness He judges and fights.1 Footnote: 1See Acts 10:42.
Rev 19:12 And His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head
were many crowns, having a Name that had been written, which
no one had perceived except Himself1 – Footnote: 1See 2:17. (“He who has
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I
shall give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I shall give him a white stone, and on
the stone a renewed Name written which no one knows except him who receives it.” ’ )

Rev 19:13 and having been dressed in a robe dipped in blood –

and His Name is called: The Word of Yahweh 1.‫ יהוה‬Footnote:
1
John 1:1 & 14.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with
Elohim, and the Word was Elohim.
Joh 1:2 He was in the beginning with Elohim.
Joh 1:3 All came to be through Him,1 and without Him not even
one came to be that came to be. Footnote: 1Eph. 3:9, Col. 1:16, Heb. 1:2, Heb.
11:3, 2 Peter 3:5, Ps. 33:6.

…Who is the Word made flesh? Yahoshua…

Rev 22:3 And no longer shall there be any curse, and the throne
of Elohim and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall
serve Him.
Rev 22:4 And they shall see His face, and His Name shall be upon
their foreheads.

Whose name is on your forehead? Whose name did you

receive?

Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in
their foreheads:

Rev 14:1 And I looked and saw a Lamb standing on Mount

Tsiyon, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand,
having His Father’s Name1 written upon their foreheads.
Footnote: 1Some texts read: having His Name and His Father’s Name.

Rev 17:3 And he carried me away in the Spirit into the

wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast
covered with names of blasphemy, having seven heads and
ten horns.
Rev 17:4 And the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and
adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, holding in
her hand a golden cup filled with abominations and the
filthiness of her whoring,1 Footnote: 1Jer. 51:7. (Jer 51:7 Baḇel was a
43
golden cup in the hand of ‫יהוה‬, making drunk all the earth. The
nations drank her wine, that is why the nations went mad!)

Rev 17:5 and upon her forehead a name written, a secret:

BAḆEL THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE WHORES AND OF THE
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had
the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Rev 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire,

that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest
be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear;
and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

What do the churches ask of you today? What do some of the

televangelists ask of you besides money? But they do ask for it,
don’t they? They ask you to willingly receive the WRONG name.
If it is so well known now that Iesous is a transliteration of a
very important name, why don’t we use the correct and original
name? We are obviously able to pronounce and write it.

2Jn 1:6 And this is the love, that we walk according to His
commands.1 This is the command, that as you have heard from
the beginning, you should walk in it. Footnote: 1See 1 John 5:3, and John
14:15.

2Jn 1:7 Because many who are leading astray went out into the
world who do not confess ‫ יהושע‬Messiah as coming in the flesh.
This one is he who is leading astray and the anti-messiah.
2Jn 1:8 See to yourselves, that we do not lose what we worked
for, but that we might receive a complete reward.
2Jn 1:9 Everyone who is transgressing and not staying in
the teaching of Messiah does not possess Elohim.1 The
one who stays in the teaching of Messiah possesses both the
Father and the Son.2 Footnotes: 11 Tim. 6:3. 2See 1 John 1:3, 1 John 2:22, 1
John 5:20.
2Jn 1:10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this
teaching, do not receive him into your house nor greet him,
2Jn 1:11 for he who greets him shares in his wicked works.

Joh 13:20 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives

whomever I send, receives Me. And he who receives Me,
receives Him who sent Me.”

Joh 5:43 “I have come in My Father’s Name and you do not

receive Me, if another comes in his own name, him you would
receive.1 Footnote: 1“Another,” another one, was indeed a prophecy by ‫ יהושע‬of
another one, probably the same one we read of in 2 Thess. 2:4. See Anti-Messiah in
Explanatory Notes.

44
 Joh 5:44 “How are you able to believe, when you are receiving
esteem from one another, and the esteem that is from the only
Elohim you do not seek?

Mat 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, so that they see
your good works and praise your Father who is in the heavens.
Mat 5:17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or the
Prophets.1 I did not come to destroy but to complete. Footnote:
1
The Law and the Prophets is a term used for the pre-Messianic Scriptures.

The word “complete: in Mat 5:17 is defined as:

G4137 πληρόω plēroō play-ro'-o: From G4134; to make replete, that is,
(literally) to cram (a net), level up (a hollow), or (figuratively) to furnish (or
imbue, diffuse, influence), satisfy, execute (an office), finish (a period or
task), verify (or coincide with a prediction), etc.: - accomplish, X after, (be)
complete, end, expire, fill (up), fulfill, (be, make) full (come), fully preach,
perfect, supply.

Mat 5:18 “For truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth
pass away, one jot or one title shall by no means pass
from the Torah till all be done.1 Footnote: 1Lk. 16:17. (Luk 16:17
“And it is easier for the heaven and the earth to pass
away than for one title of the Torah to fall).

Mat 5:19 “Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these

commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the
reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he
shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.

Mat 5:20 “For I say to you, that unless your righteousness

exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees,1 you shall by no
means enter into the reign of the heavens. Footnote: 1Mt. 15:3-9, Mk.
7:7-13, John 7:19, Acts 7:53, Rom. 2:23-27, Gal. 6:13.

What is said of the righteousness of the Pharisees? Yahoshua

openly shared His feelings:

Mat 23:24 “Blind guides – straining out a gnat and swallowing a

camel!
Mat 23:25 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because
you clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are filled
with plunder and unrighteousness.
Mat 23:26 “Blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and dish,
so that the outside of them becomes clean too.
Mat 23:27 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because
you are like whitewashed tombs which outwardly indeed look well,
but inside are filled with dead men’s bones and all
uncleanness.
Mat 23:28 “So you too outwardly indeed appear righteous to men, but
inside you are filled with hypocrisy and lawlessness.1
Footnote:1See 5:20.

45
 Mat 23:29 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because
you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of
the righteous,

This is something to ponder carefully for each individual. I know some

people feel perfectly comfortable with their religion and others have
the light bulb go on and realize that there is more than what they are
being told. I don’t know how Yahoshua will judge when He comes back.
All I know is that if I know His right Name, I think I should use it. If I
suspect it is blaspheming His Name to use another title or false name, I
would stay away from it but I don’t judge others’ decisions. It is your
choice and your right to chose and to receive what you will in your
mind and act out with your hands. I believe this is one of the truly
beautiful gifts Yahweh gave to us. He loves us enough to give us
freedom to choose.

46
Man of Lawlessness

Let’s look into the description provided to us in the second book of

Thessalonians regarding the Man of Lawlessness. We know this is a clue
regarding the anti-Messiah but what are we being told?

2Th 2:1 As to the coming of our Master ‫ יהושע‬Messiah and our

gathering together to Him, we ask you, brothers,
2Th 2:2 not to become easily unsettled in mind or troubled, either by
spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as if the day of ‫ יהוה‬has
come.

The Catholics claim Sunday to be the day of the Lord, which as was discussed
in detail was the abominable title given to both Yahweh and Yahoshua. Also
some people say that Yahweh’s judgment has already happened and that we
are living in the millennium now. I am sure that is not the case. There is more
interesting information below.

2Th 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way, because the falling away
is to come first, and the man of lawlessness1 is to be revealed, the
son of destruction, Footnote: 1Some texts read sin instead of lawlessness. This
man might be the same one we read of in the prophecy in Isa. 14:12 – Hĕlĕl
(“Heileil”), meaning “the shining one,” the sovereign of Baḇel.

Above you see the warning to not let anyone deceive you. Why? Because
the falling away is coming first and next is the man of lawlessness
revealed who is the son of destruction. What falling away are they talking
about? The “falling away” is a turning away from the Torah or ways of
Yahweh. When you see the term man of lawlessness above, what does it
mean exactly?

In the beginning of verse 3, it says let no Let noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG1818 you.
In this sense the word used is manG5100 (G5100, τίς, tis, tis: An enclitic
indefinite pronoun; some or any person or object). Here it is referring to any
person, don’t let anyone deceive you. However, when you see man of
lawlessness/sin you see a different word for man. This word “man” is
different than just some guy or general person it is specific:

G444 ἄνθρωπος, anthrōpos, anth'-ro-pos: From G435 and ὤψ ōps (the
countenance; from G3700);

The definition is interesting because G435 means husband or sir and G3700
is more complicated: G3700 ὀπτάνομαι, ὄπτομαι , optanomai optomai,
op-tan'-om-ahee, op'-tom-ahee: The first a (middle voice) prolonged form of
the second (primary) which is used for it in certain tenses; and both as
alternates of G3708; to gaze (that is, with wide open eyes, as at something
remarkable; and thus differing from G991, which denotes simply voluntary
observation; and from G1492, which expresses merely mechanical, passive
or casual vision; while G2300, and still more emphatically its intensive

47
G2334, signifies an earnest but more continued inspection; and G4648 a
watching from a distance): - appear, look, see, shew self.

What does this tell us? Although it looks complicated what these detailed
definitions tell us is that the “man of lawlessness” is a “husband” who
appears or is experienced passively. Who is the husband of the church?
Yahoshua. However, there is a decoy husband that will appear on the scene
who is not even a real man but a continence of a man; a deception and will
lead to your destruction through the turning away from Yahweh’s Torah and
ways.

2Th 2:4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called
Elohim or that is worshipped, so that he sits as Elohim in the Dwelling
Place of Elohim, showing himself that he is Elohim.

Where does the decoy sit? Isn’t he in Yahoshua’s place? Yahoshua is the
dwelling place of Elohim. Not a physical temple as some false prophets of
today would have you believe. Yahoshua resurrected the temple of Yahweh.

2Th 2:5 Do you not remember that I told you this while I was still with
you?
2Th 2:6 And now you know what restrains, for him to be revealed in
his time.
2Th 2:7 For the secret of lawlessness is already at work – only until
he who now restrains comes out of the midst.
2Th 2:8 And then the lawless one shall be revealed, whom the
Master shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth and bring to naught
with the manifestation of His coming.

2Th 2:9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the workingG1753
(G1753, ἐνέργεια, energeia, en-erg'-i-ah: From G1756; efficiency (“energy”): - operation,
strong, (effectual) working.) of SatanG4567 , (G4567, Σατανᾶς, Satanas, sat-an-as': Of Chaldee
origin corresponding to G4566 (with the definite article affixed); the accuser, that is, the devil: - Satan.)
G1411
with all power (G1411, δύναμις, dunamis
doo'-nam-is: From G1410; force (literally or figuratively); specifically miraculous power (usually
by implication a miracle itself): - ability, abundance, meaning, might (-ily, -y, -y deed), (worker
G4592
of) miracle (-s), power, strength, violence, mighty (wonderful) work.) and signs
(G4592, σημεῖον, sēmeion, say-mi'-on: Neuter of a presumed derivative of the base of G4591;
an indication, especially ceremonially or supernaturally: - miracle, sign, token, wonder.)
and wonders,G5059 (G5059, τέρας, teras, ter'-as: Of uncertain affinity; a prodigy or
omen: - wonder.) of falsehood,

If we look deeper into the meaning of this verse we see that the man of
lawlessness will have the energy or effectual work of the devil with
possibilities of miracles (perhaps medical miracles?) and ceremonies and
omens. There are many ways we can be deceived by the dark powers of this
world. The medical world is doing crazy things with microbiology, or cloning.
Look at the space programs with it’s weapons, lasers and HAARP programs.
Who knows what else they have created to try to trick us. They have created
wars to obtain land in modern day “Israel” so as to move “Jews” back to that
land to fulfill prophecy and to place a six pointed satanic symbol there. These
types of deceptive lies are being fed to us each day and we are manipulated
by psychopaths in order for them to grab more “power”. However, all these

48
things we can read on the Internet and agree or disagree with. The most
important thing that we have to understand is that the Truth is there for us to
find if only we want to look for it. The other conspiracies of this world do not
have such deep implications for each of us as that of religion. Religion
basically deceives us by liying about doctrine, prophecy, the Messiah, the
true Gospel, and even tell us that Yahweh’s Torah or Laws no longer apply to
us through the acceptance of their “savior”.

2Th 2:10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness

in those perishing, because they did not receive
the love of the truth, in order for them to be
saved.
Please do not be deceived in this time of overflowing lawlessness. I hope and
beg you to receive the love of the TRUTH who is Yahoshua in order to be
saved. Love the Truth and despise the lies.

2Th 2:11 And for this reason Elohim sends them a working of
delusion, for them to believe the falsehood,1 Footnote: 1Eze. 20:25, John
9:39, John 12:40, Acts 7:42, Rom. 1:24-28.

What is the working delusion? To the dictionary we go: delusion,G1753 G4106

G1753 ἐνέργεια energeia en-erg'-i-ah: From G1756; efficiency (“energy”): -
operation, strong, (effectual) working.
G4106 πλάνη planē plan'-ay: Feminine of G4108 (as abstraction); objectively
fraudulence; subjectively a straying from orthodoxy or piety: - deceit, to
deceive, delusion, error.
G4108 πλάνος planos plan'-os: Of uncertain affinity; roving (as a tramp), that
is, (by implication) an impostor or misleader: - deceiver, seducing.

2Th 2:12 in order that all should be judged who did not believe the
truth, but have delighted in the unrighteousness.

Unrighteousness is discussed interestingly in 2 Peter chapter two. Here

he talks about people who only follow the flesh as being like animals
who cannot reason. People who are unable to “cease from sin” or
“entice unstable beings” are also those who love the wages of
unrighteousness.

2Pe 2:12 But these, like natural unreasoning beasts, having been
born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheme that which they do not
know, shall be destroyed in their destruction,
2Pe 2:13 being about to receive the wages of unrighteousness,
deeming indulgence in the day of pleasure, spots and blemishes,
revelling in their own deceptions while they feast with you,
2Pe 2:14 having eyes filled with an adulteress, and unable to cease
from sin, enticing unstable beings, having a heart trained in greed,
children of a curse,
2Pe 2:15 having left the right way they went astray, having followed
the way of Bilʽam the son of Beʽor, who loved the wages of
unrighteousness,

49
I am sharing a lot of Scripture with you because this is the Truth and it
has been used to deceive you for so long but when you look carefully,
you can see that the Truth is right there:

1Jn 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not unto
death.
1Jn 5:18 We know that everyone having been born of Elohim does
not sin,1 but the one having been born of Elohim guards himself,
and the wicked one does not touch him.2 Footnotes: 1See 3:6-9. 2See 4:4.
1Jn 5:19 We know that we are of Elohim, and all the world lies in
the wicked one.
1Jn 5:20 And we know that the Son of Elohim has come and has
given us an understanding, so that we might know the true One.
And we are in the true One, in His Son ‫ יהושע‬Messiah. This is the
true Elohim and everlasting life.
1Jn 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.1 Amĕn.
Footnote: 1See 1 Cor. 10:14.

I think this passage from 1 John 5:17-21 sums it up for us.

Unrighteousness is sin and when we are with Yahoshua, He gives us an
understanding. We keep ourselves from sin and all the lies of the world
who work in the wicked one. We know that Yahoshua is the True ONE…
HE alone is the TRUE Messiah who gives everlasting life. Idols will lead
you to sin and destruction.

 A Sign or A Mark

Exo 13:9 “And it shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a

reminder between your eyes, that the
to be in your mouth, for with a strong
brought you out of Mitsrayim (Egypt).
Exo 13:10 “And you shall guard this law at
year to year.
Torah of ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh is
hand ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh has
its appointed time from

Deu 6:4 “Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh our Elohim, ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh is

one!
Deu 6:5 “And you shall love ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh your Elohim with all your
heart, and with all your being, and with all your might.
Deu 6:6 “And these Words which I am commanding you today
shall be in your heart,
Deu 6:7 and you shall impress them upon your children, and shall
speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by
the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up,
Deu 6:8 and shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and
they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
Deu 6:9 “And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house
and on your gates.

According to Strong’s Concordance the Sign in Exodus 13:9 in

Hebrew is a MARK: H226, ‫אות‬,'ôth, oth Probably from H225 (in the
sense of appearing); a signal (literally or figuratively), as a flag,
beacon, monument, omen, prodigy, evidence, etc.: - mark,
miracle, (en-) sign, token.

What is the sign for Yahweh? It seems to me that He mentions often

that living His ways is clean. Living His ways show love and respect
to Him. Remember when you were a child and your parents told you,
“as long as you live in my house, you live by my rules.” Well, the
same goes for our Spiritual Father, Yahweh. He wants us to live
according to the house rules and His rules are the right way. If you
get married, you say vows to each other. Why? You are making a
promise or oath to one another of love and commitment. With
Yahweh, we are the bride for Yahoshua. If we break our vows, we are
breaking our oath to Him to be His alone. What are the vows?

Gen 18:19 “For I have known him, so that he commands his

children and his household after him, to guard the way of
‫ יהוה‬Yahweh, to do righteousness and right-ruling, so that ‫יהוה‬
Yahweh brings to Aḇraham what He has spoken to him.”

51
 Gen 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my
charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

Exo 15:26 And He said, “If you diligently obey the voice of ‫יהוה‬
Yahweh your Elohim and do what is right in His eyes, and shall
listen to His commands and shall guard all His laws, I shall
bring on you none of the diseases I brought on the Mitsrites
(Egyptians), for I am ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh who heals you.”

Just in case you have never actually read the “10 Words” of
Yahweh, I have included them for you:

Exo 20:1 And Elohim spoke all these Words, saying,

Exo 20:2 “I am ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh your Elohim, who brought you out of
the land of Mitsrayim (Egypt), out of the house of slavery.
Exo 20:3 “You have no other mighty ones against My face.
Exo 20:4 “You do not make for yourself a carved image, or
any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in
the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth,
Exo 20:5 you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I,
‫ יהוה‬Yahweh your Elohim am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness
of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations
of those who hate Me,
Exo 20:6 but showing kindness to thousands, to those who love
Me and guard My commands.
Exo 20:7 “You do not bring1 the Name of ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh your
Elohim to naught, for ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh does not leave the one
unpunished who brings His Name to naught. Footnote: 1Or lift up, or
take.
Exo 20:8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to set it apart.
Exo 20:9 “Six days you labour, and shall do all your work,
Exo 20:10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath1 of ‫ יהוה‬your Elohim.
You do not do any work – you, nor your son, nor your daughter,
nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle,
nor your stranger who is within your gates. Footnote: 1There are other
Sabbaths, but this is the weekly Sabbath.
Exo 20:11 “For in six days ‫ יהוה‬made the heavens and the earth,
the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day.
Therefore ‫ יהוה‬blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart.
Exo 20:12 “Respect your father and your mother, so that your
days are prolonged upon the soil which ‫ יהוה‬your Elohim is giving
you.
Exo 20:13 “You do not murder.
Exo 20:14 “You do not commit adultery.
Exo 20:15 “You do not steal.
Exo 20:16 “You do not bear false witness against your neighbour.
Exo 20:17 “You do not covet your neighbour’s house, you do not
covet your neighbour’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female
servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever belongs to your
neighbour.”

52
 Exo 20:18 And all the people saw the thunders, the lightning
flashes, the sound of the ram’s horn, and the mountain smoking.
And the people saw it, and they trembled and stood at a distance,
Exo 20:19 and said to Mosheh, “You speak with us and we hear,
but let not Elohim speak with us, lest we die.”
Exo 20:20 And Mosheh said to the people, “Do not fear, for Elohim
has come to prove you, and in order that His fear be before you,
so that you do not sin.”
Exo 20:21 So the people stood at a distance, but Mosheh drew
near the thick darkness where Elohim was.
Exo 20:22 And ‫ יהוה‬said to Mosheh, “Say this to the children of
Yisra’ĕl: ‘You yourselves have seen that I have spoken to you from
the heavens.
Exo 20:23 ‘You do not make besides Me mighty ones of silver, and
you do not make mighty ones of gold for yourselves.
Exo 20:24 ‘Make an altar of earth for Me, and you shall slaughter
on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep
and your cattle. In every place where I cause My Name to be
remembered I shall come to you and bless you.
Exo 20:25 ‘And if you make Me an altar of stone, do not build it of
cut stone, for if you use your chisel on it, you have profaned it.
Exo 20:26 ‘Nor do you go up by steps to My altar, lest your
nakedness be exposed on it.’

For practical purposes, I am including the definition for “bring to

naught or in vain”H7723 so you can see what exactly it means (from
Strong’s concordance):

H7723, ‫שוא‬ׁ ׁ o,shâv' shav, shawv, shav, From the same as H7722
‫שו‬
in the sense of desolating; evil (as destructive), literally (ruin) or
morally (especially guile); figuratively idolatry (as false,
subjectively), uselessness (as deceptive, objectively; also
adverbially in vain): - false (-ly), lie, lying, vain, vanity.

Mat 24:15 “So when you see the ‘abomination that lays waste,’
spoken of by Dani’ĕl the prophet, set up in the set-apart place” – he
who reads, let him understand

Dan 9:27 “And he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week.
And in the middle of the week he shall put an end to slaughtering and
meal offering. And on the wing of abominations he shall lay waste,
even until the complete end and that which is decreed is poured out
on the one who lays waste1.” Footnote: 1Mt. 24:15.

Remember what Pharisees and Scribes did with Yahweh’s Name? They
hid it from the children of Yah and replaced it with a title that many
use now, LORD. Now look what they did with Yahoshua’s Name, they
changed it to Lord and Iesous. Someone actually said once that as long
as your heart is in the right place you can call Him whatever you want.

53
This, my dear friends, is lawlessness, the doctrines which are written
by men for men with itching ears.

2Ti 4:3 For there shall be a time when they shall not bear sound
teaching, but according to their own desires, they shall heap up
for themselves teachers tickling the ear,1 Footnote: 1Isa. 30:10, Jer.
5:31, Rom. 16:18.
2Ti 4:4 and they shall indeed turn their ears away from the
truth, and be turned aside to myths.

What other major oaths does the Hellenized version of the church
break?

“You have no other mighty ones against My face.”

The myths and fables that make up the modern pagan society and
religions participate in worship of some form of false god or other.
Democracy for example worships Liberty. From Wikipedia, “Libertas
(Latin for Liberty) was the Roman goddess and embodiment of
liberty…Libertas, along with other Roman goddesses, has served as
the inspiration for many modern-day symbols, including the Statue
of Liberty on Liberty Island in the United States of America.
According to the National Park Service, the Statue's Roman robe is the
main feature that invokes Libertas and the symbol of Liberty from
which the Statue derives its name.[2]”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertas

This is just one example but there are countless more.

Exo 20:4 “You do not make for yourself a carved image, or

any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in
the earth beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth,
Exo 20:5 you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I,
‫ יהוה‬Yahweh your Elohim am a jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness
of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations
of those who hate Me,

Where can I start? What about the fish, or Icthus that people stick to
the back of the car?

“The use of the Ichthys symbol by early Pagans. Ichthus (ΙΧΘΥΣ, Greek
for fish) can be read as an acrostic, a word formed from the first letters
of several words. It compiles to "Pisces, God's sun, savior," in ancient
Greek "Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, Θεοῦ Υἱός, Σωτήρ", Iēsous Khristos Theou
Huios, Sōtēr.”

This symbol is evil and even if it was used by the “early church” does
not make it right. There was a lot of early corruption as indicated when
Paul discusses the Pharisees who tried to tell the gentile converts that
54
they must get physically circumcised in order to be saved. The use of
these symbols were not found until a few hundred years AFTER
Yahoshua resurrected to the right hand of the Father. That allowed
three hundred years of pagan influence to leak into the faith to slowly
poison the children of Yisra’ĕl who have the faith of Yahoshua.

This symbol is linked back to Ephesus and is purely pagan. Paul warns
of people who will cause falling away:

2Th 2:2 not to become easily unsettled in mind or

troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from
us, as if the day of ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh has come.
2Th 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way, because the
falling away is to come first, and the man of lawlessness1 is
to be revealed, the son of destruction, Footnote: 1Some texts read
sin instead of lawlessness. This man might be the same one we read of in the
prophecy in Isa. 14:12 – Hĕlĕl (“Heileil”), meaning “the shining one,” the
sovereign of Baḇel.

“The fish symbol "was so revered throughout the Roman empire that
Christian authorities insisted on taking it over, with extensive revision
of myths to deny its earlier female-genital meanings...Sometimes the
Christ child was portrayed inside the vesica, which was superimposed
on Mary's belly and obviously represented her womb, just as in the
ancient symbolism of the Goddess." 4 Another author writes: "The fish
headdress of the priests of Ea [a Sumero-Semitic God] later became
the miter of the Christian bishops." 5 “

Yahoshua says that it was good that His people knew not to follow the
false apostles because it leads to destruction or desolation.

Rev 2:1 “To the messenger of the assembly of Ephesos

write, ‘He who is holding the seven stars in His right hand,
who is walking in the midst of the seven golden lamp
stands, says this:
Rev 2:2 “I know your works, and your labor, and your
endurance, and that you are not able to bear evil
ones, and have tried those who say they are
emissaries/apostles and are not, and have found
them false;
Rev 2:3 and you have been bearing up and have
endurance, and have labored for My Name’s sake and
have not become weary.
Rev 2:4 “But I hold this against you, that you have left your
first love.
Rev 2:5 “So remember from where you have fallen,
and repent and do the first works, or else I shall come
to you speedily and remove your lamp stand from its place,
unless you repent.
55
 I too did it for a long time, falling into the same trap of idolatry that
many others may have. As long as we repent, we can be forgiven in
faith.

Another symbol? The cross! Yes, the cross and no I am not kidding.
How many times have you bowed your head before a cross? You think
it’s showing honor to Yahoshua? He is alive! He says to worship in
Truth and Spirit!

Joh 4:19 The woman said to Him, “Master, I see that You are a
prophet.
Joh 4:20 “Our fathers worshipped on this mountain, but you
people say that in Yerushalayim is the place where one needs to
worship.”
Joh 4:21 ‫ יהושע‬Yahoshua said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour
is coming when you shall neither on this mountain, nor in
Yerushalayim, worship the Father.
Joh 4:22 “You worship what you do not know. We worship what we
know, because the deliverance is of the Yehuḏim.1 Footnote: 1Ps.
147:19, Isa. 2:3, Isa. 14:1, Isa. 56:6-8, Ezek. 47:22-23, Zech. 2:10-11, Zech. 8:23, Rom.
2:20, Rom. 3:2, Rom. 9:4, Rev. 21:12 & 24.
Joh 4:23 “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true
worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for
the Father also does seek such to worship Him.
Joh 4:24 “Elohim is Spirit, and those who worship Him need to
worship in spirit and truth.”

Yahoshua says plainly to this woman at a well that if we are truly

worshipping Him, we will do so in Spirit and in Truth. There is no need
for a temple, or symbols, or priests because Yahoshua is the physical
image of Yahweh, He is the Temple of Yahweh and He is our Priest who
intercedes on our behalf. Why is the symbol of the cross idolatrous?

Lev 26:1 ‘Do not make idols for yourselves, and do not set up a
carved image or a pillar for yourselves, and do not place a
stone image in your land, to bow down to it. For I am ‫ יהוה‬your
Elohim.

Wikipedia says in reference to a cross, “The word cross was introduced

to English in the 10th century as the term for the instrument of the
torturous execution of Christ (gradually replacing the earlier word
rood), ultimately from Latin crux, via Old Irish cros. The word can
nowadays refer to the geometrical shape unrelated to its Christian
significance. The Latin Crux (translating Greek stauros) was a Roman
torture device used for crucifixion.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross)

The definition for cross in Scripture according to Strong’s Concordance:

G4716, σταυρός, stauros (stow-ros')

56
From the base of G2476; a stake or post (as set upright), that is,
(specifically) a pole or cross (as an instrument of capital punishment);
figuratively exposure to death, that is, self denial; by implication the
atonement of Christ: - cross.

There seems to be a lot of debate about whether or not Yahoshua

was impaled on a vertical stake or on a T cross. If He died on an
electric chair, would you make one of those to honor His Name by?
Does He want that type of symbol to represent Him? Remember that
this symbol is of strong pagan heritage and therefore is not
representative of His Holiness. Besides that point, He says clearly
NOT to make any idols or carved images or pillars for ourselves for
worship. And yet we justify it because “the early church did”, but
that is exactly the same arguments pagans use to say their religion
is the right one; because it is older and has been around longer than
Christianity. Unfortunately, this is just not a valid rationalization for
bowing down to, kissing, praying to, and decorating with a symbol
associated with pagan deities. I know this is difficult to imagine but
there are numerous verses sited in this booklet as well as
throughout scripture that says not to use symbols because it is
idolatry; plain and simple. The cross preached is the preaching of
self-denial not a physical symbol to cause us to sin in idolatry.

There are many other symbols used to brand religions but these
folks can be identified by their fruits, whether it be a symbol of a
star, sun, moon, or fish they are all offensive to Yahweh.

Amo 5:26 but you took up Sikkuth your sovereign and Kiyyun, your
idols, your astral mighty ones1, which you made for yourselves!
Footnote: 1Acts 7:43.
Deu 4:19 and lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens, and shall see
the sun, and the moon, and the stars – all the host of the heavens –
and you be drawn away into bowing down to them and serving them,
which ‫ יהוה‬your Elohim has allotted to all the peoples under all the
heavens.

Act 7:43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of
your mighty one Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them:
and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

One of Yahweh’s commands mentioned above is to honor the

Sabbath day. What is that exactly? Well according to Scripture it is
the seventh day of the week. Notice that Yahweh’s time is different
than how we keep track of time now. He uses numbers, and we use
pagan worship to call our days of the weeks. Why do Christians
worship on Sunday or the first day of the week, when the bible
clearly states in many, many places to rest and honor Yahweh on
the seventh day of the week?

An article in wikipedia says, “ For the majority of the Abrahamic

religions the first day of the week is Sunday. Shabbat (or
57
Saturday), when God rested from his creation week, made the
following day, Sunday, the first day of the week. Saturdays were
sanctified for celebration and rest. After the week was adopted in
Early Christian Europe, Sunday remained the first day of the week,
but also gradually displaced Saturday as the day of celebration and
rest, being considered the Lord's Day.”

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Week-
day_names#Weekdays_named_after_stellar_objects

However, when you read this in a bible with the restored Name of
Yahweh, the verse the Catholics use to justify moving Yahweh’s
Sabbath from the 7th day of the week to the 1st day of the week, it
says, “I came to be in the Spirit on the Day of ‫ יהוה‬Yahweh , and I heard
behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet,” source
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%27s_Day

The Day of Yahweh is mentioned throughout the bible and seems to be

referring to His Day of Judgment on earth when He returns. This simple
fact that the early churches forced people to go to their pagan-
influenced temples and serve pagan ideals on a day they named after
the sun causes me to think about this custom in a different way. The
judgment has not come yet because the Good News and reign of
Yahweh are being announced. However, for those who choose
Yahoshua’s gospel and Truth the judgment will not come but eternal
life with Him will be the reward. For those who deny Him and lie about
Him and choose the lies and participate in the evils of the confused
religions will partake of the cup of wrath as is written in prophecy
throughout the entire bible. For now the announcement of the reign of
Elohim and sharing of the Good News continues and it is now that we
choose.

What exactly are people doing to the Good News of Yahoshua?

Luk 16:14 And the Pharisees, who loved silver, also heard all this, and were
sneering at Him,
Luk 16:15 so He said to them, “You are those who declare yourselves
righteous before men, but Elohim knows your hearts, because what is highly
thought of among men is an abomination in the sight of Elohim.
Luk 16:16 “The Torah and the prophets are until Yoḥanan. Since then the
reign of Elohim is being announced, and everyone is doing violence
upon it.
Luk 16:17 “And it is easier for the heaven and the earth to pass away than for
one title of the Torah to fall.

All this was prophesied to occur in Ezekiel and it seems happened over and
over again. Even now, today look at how many people deny, persecute, or lie
about Yahoshua’s Name, His Good News, or out rightly reject all Truth about
Him.

58
 Eze 22:25 “There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst, like a roaring
lion tearing the prey. They have devoured life, they have taken wealth and
precious matters, they have made many widows in her midst.
Eze 22:26 “Her priests have done violence to My teaching1 and they profane
My set-apart matters. They have not distinguished between the set-apart and
profane, nor have they made known the difference between the unclean and
the clean. And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am
profaned in their midst. Footnote: 1Zeph. 3:4, Lk. 16:16.
Eze 22:27 “Her leaders in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed
blood, to destroy lives, and to get greedy gain.
Eze 22:28 “And her prophets have coated them with whitewash, seeing a
false vision, and divining a lie for them, saying, ‘Thus said the Master ‫יהוה‬,’
when ‫ יהוה‬had not spoken.

In fact, the apostle Paul warns us of the wolves ready to devour the
children of Yahweh. Remember what Luke wrote in the book of Acts
about what tribulations await the people of belief:

Act 20:28 “Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock,
among which the Set-apart Spirit has made you overseers, to
shepherd the assembly of Elohim which He has purchased with His
own blood.
Act 20:29 “For I know this, that after my departure savage
wolves1 shall come in among you, not sparing the flock.
Footnote: 1See Mt. 7:15-23, Mt. 10:16, Lk. 10:3, John 10:12.
Act 20:30 “Also from among yourselves men shall arise, speaking
distorted teachings, to draw away the taught ones after themselves.

Indeed, the religions ask you to come to worship before them and do
things in the name of their establishments. They even give you a new
name and a new Sabbath day to worship within and they teach you
that Torah is no longer relevant. These things are not Scriptural and
are distorted teachings to draw you away from Truth and unto greedy
gain for them just as was written two thousand years ago. This is
another decoy and is in fact a part of the mark on your hand because
your hand is your action in the physical world just as the Names
Yahweh and Yahoshua are the marks for your mind or spiritual world.

Some say it is in because in Acts, the apostles met together on the first
day of the week after the resurrection of Yahoshua. However, you will
also see that they kept Sabbath and feasts and this does not mean
they moved the Sabbath.

In the book of Daniel you may find an answer to why this was done. He
talks about how Yahweh is the One who is in control:

Dan 2:21 “And He changes the times and the seasons. He

removes sovereigns and raises up sovereigns. He gives wisdom to
the wise and knowledge to those who possess understanding.

And then is given a vision to share with mankind regarding the false
religions:
59
 Dan 7:25 and it speaks words against the Most High, and it wears
out the set-apart ones of the Most High, and it intends to change
appointed times1 and law2, and they are given into its hand for a
time and times and half a time. Footnotes: 1This is another word for festivals.
2
Changing the law amounts to lawlessness. Read in 2 Thess. 2:3-12 about
“the lawless one” and the “lawlessness” which would take over
(indeed, it has already taken over!) in the set-apart place, and
also about Messiah’s judgment upon the lawless “prophets” in Mt.
7:23, and the lawless “believers” in Mt. 13:41!

We can see clearly that Yahweh does not change. He is the constant
in our lives. In fact, if we live His ways, we will better understand His
creation and plan for salvation of us individually as well as for His
entire family.

Constantine decreed (March 7, 321) dies Solis—day of the sun,

"Sunday"—as the Roman day of rest [CJ3.12.2]:

‘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 suitable for grain-sowing or vine planting; lest
by neglecting the proper moment for such operations the bounty
of heaven should be lost.’

The cult of Sol Invictus continued to be part of the state religion

until all paganism was abolished by decree of Theodosius I on
February 27, 390.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol_Invictus#cite_note-5

Even though they officially ended the worship of the sun openly, it
was obviously transliterated into the message of the gospel thereby
creating an abomination which makes desolate or in other words,
the false sign of moving the day of rest or Sabbath to the day of sun
worship breaks your relationship with Yahweh. He gave us a day of
rest on the seventh day of the week as a sign between us and Him.
To change His Torah leads to one’s destruction spiritually and
physically.

When considering living His ways and holding to the mark or sign He
gave us, we not only look at the ten commandments and guidelines
for all matters in life, but also the feasts. These feasts are key in
gaining a deeper relationship with Him and they also contain
Sabbaths that are important to observe. We are given an example of
how to live and what not to do. This is a beautiful example that we
are expected to live a pure life not a modern new age “anything
goes” life if we are expecting to reflect Yahoshua’s light. Our family
60
traditions begin in the old testament, not with Constantine’s Nicene
Creed.

1Co 10:1 For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that all
our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
1Co 10:2 and all were immersed into Mosheh in the cloud and in
the sea,
1Co 10:3 and all ate the same spiritual food,
1Co 10:4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of
that spiritual Rock that followed, and the Rock was Messiah.
1Co 10:5 However, with most of them Elohim was not well
pleased, for they were laid low in the wilderness.
1Co 10:6 And these became examples for us, so that we should
not lust after evil, as those indeed lusted.
1Co 10:7 And do not become idolaters as some of them, as it has
been written, “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood
up to play.”
1Co 10:8 Neither should we commit whoring, as some of them did,
and in one day twenty-three thousand fell,
1Co 10:9 neither let us try Messiah, as some of them also tried,
and were destroyed by serpents,
1Co 10:10 neither grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and
were destroyed by the destroyer.
1Co 10:11 And all these came upon them as examples, and they
were written as a warning to us, on whom the ends of the ages
have come,
1Co 10:12 so that he who thinks he stands, let him take heed lest
he fall.

Yahoshua is our rock, our strength, and our deliverer from all evils.
He is our living sign and His Words are the Sword.

Luk 2:27 And he came in the Spirit into the Set-apart Place. And as
the parents brought in the Child ‫יהושע‬, to do for Him according to the
usual practice of the Torah,
Luk 2:28 then he took Him up in his arms and blessed Elohim and
said,
Luk 2:29 “Now let Your servant go in peace, O Master, according to
Your word,
Luk 2:30 for my eyes have seen Your deliverance,
Luk 2:31 which You have prepared before the face of all the peoples,
Luk 2:32 a light for the unveiling of the gentiles, and the esteem of
Your people Yisra’ĕl.”
Luk 2:33 And Yosĕph and His mother were marvelling at what was
said about Him.
Luk 2:34 And Shimʽon blessed them, and said to Miryam His mother,
“See, this One is set for a fall and rising of many in
Yisra’ĕl, and for a sign spoken against –
Luk 2:35 and a sword shall pierce through your own
being also – so as to reveal the thoughts of many
hearts.”

Χξς Six hundred threescore and six

Rev 13:18 Here is the wisdom! He who has understanding, let him
calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and
his number is 666 (Six hundred threescore and six: Χξς, chi xi
stigma).

This section of the book is what truly spring boarded me into the quest
for the True Name of Yahoshua. To understand the mark of the beast,
666, “chi xi stigma” we need to have a bit of historical understanding
first.

Constantine is famous for his legalization and mainstreaming of

Christianity. He brought the cross onto the scene because of a vision
he had of a bright light and was told to put a symbol on the shields of
his men and to conquer with that. This symbol was a chi-rho.

(compare to the Egyptian Ankh)

Wikipedia defines the chi rho: “The Chi Rho is one of the earliest
forms of christogram, and is used by Christians. It is formed by
superimposing the first two letters in the Greek spelling of the word
Christ ( Greek : "Χριστός" ), chi = ch and rho = r, in such a way to
produce the monogram ☧. The Chi-Rho symbol was also used by
pagan Greek scribes to mark, in the margin, a particularly valuable or
relevant passage; the combined letters Chi and Rho standing for
chrēston, meaning "good."[1]

The ankh (U+2625 ☥, 'key of life', 'the key of the Nile', 'crux
ansata') was the Egyptian hieroglyphic character that read "eternal
life", a triliteral sign for the consonants ˁ-n-ḫ. Egyptian gods are often
portrayed carrying it by its loop, or bearing one in each hand, arms
crossed over their chest.

62
The origin of the symbol remains a mystery to Egyptologists, and no
single hypothesis has been widely accepted. One of the earliest
suggestions is that of Thomas Inman, first published in 1869:[2]

[It] is by Egyptologists called the symbol of life. It is also called the

'handled cross,' or crux ansata. It represents the male triad and the
female unit, under a decent form. There are few symbols more
commonly met with in Egyptian art. In some remarkable sculptures,
where the sun's rays are represented as terminating in hands, the
offerings which these bring are many a crux ansata, emblematic of the
truth that a fruitful union is a gift from the deity.

Although not technically a cross, the Chi Rho invokes the crucifixion of
Jesus as well as symbolizing his status as the Christ. There is early
evidence of the Chi Rho symbol on Christian Rings of the third
century.”

63
It seems interesting here that John is writing about how Yahoshua is
Elohim, He is the Word made flesh. When we see above what Word
means we see that it can be the mental faculty or motive or a
computation; the divine expression of Yahweh which is Yahoshua, El
with us. We see in verse 12 that we are given the authority to become
children of Elohim by believing in His NAME. Yahoshua is the image of
Yahweh.

Col 1:15 who is the imageG1504 of the invisible Elohim, the first-
born of all creation.1 Footnote: 1Heb. 1:6, Rev. 3:14.

imageG1504 εἰκών eikōn i-kone': From G1503; a likeness, that is,

(literally) statue, profile, or (figuratively) representation, resemblance:
- image.

Yahoshua is the image of Yahweh our Elohim and when we believe in

the Name of Yahoshua - Yahweh we have that seal in our foreheads.

Rev 14:1 And I looked and saw a Lamb standing on Mount

Tsiyon, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand,
having His Father’s Name1 written upon their foreheads.
Footnote: 1Some texts read: having His Name and His Father’s
Name.

Rev 14:12 Here is the endurance of the set-apart ones,1 here

are those guarding the commands of Elohim and the
belief of ‫יהושע‬.

As I mentioned above the mark between the eyes and on the hand is
the faith and the action. The guarding the commands of Elohim
and belief in Yahoshua’s Name is your clue to understanding the
mark of the beast.

Rev 14:11 “And the smoke of their torture goes up forever and
ever. And they have no rest day or night, those worshipping the
beast and his image, also if anyone receives the mark of his
name.”

Rev 13:18 reveals that he is identifiable by a code of chi xi stigma.

Most modern translation denote the actual numeric characters in
place of the words but as you will see below, words are very
important. This is an example of a message from Yahweh that was
only translated through one of His prophets, Daniel. Just as the chi
xi stigma is only revealed to the followers of Yahoshua.

Dan 5:25 “And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENĚ, MENĚ,
TEQĚL, UPHARSIN.
Dan 5:26 “This is the interpretation of each word: MENĚ – Elah has
numbered your reign, and put an end to it.

64
Dan 5:27 “TEQĚL – You have been weighed on the scales, and found
lacking.
Dan 5:28 “PERES – Your reign has been divided, and given to the
Medes and Persians.”

Here we can see that a few words can mean everything, if only Yahweh
gives us understanding with eyes to see and ears to hear.
Yahoshua gives life to those who have faith in His Name so it
would make sense that with son of perdition brings its followers
perdition:

Joh 17:12 “When I was with them in the world, I was guarding them in
Your Name which You have given Me, and I watched over them, and
not one of them perished except the son of destruction, that the
Scripture might be filled.

Php 1:28 without being frightened in any way by those who oppose,
which to them truly is a proof of destruction, but to you of
deliverance, and that from Elohim.

2Th 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way, because the falling away
is to come first, and the man of lawlessness1 is to be revealed, the
son of destruction, Footnote: 1Some texts read sin instead of lawlessness. This
man might be the same one we read of in the prophecy in Isa. 14:12 – Hĕlĕl
(“Heileil”), meaning “the shining one,” the sovereign of Baḇel.
Heb 10:39 But we are not of those who draw back to destruction, but
of belief to the preservation of life.

Rev 17:11 “And the beast that was, and is not, is himself also the
eighth, and is of the seven, and goes to destructionG684.

The beast the was and is not is relevant when you compare it to how
Yahweh is described in contrast to the beast. Yahweh has always been
around and always will be whereas this beast, is not immortal in that it
existed but will be destroyed.

Rev 1:8 “I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, Beginning and End,” says
‫“ יהוה‬who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

You see that Yahweh is the beginning and the end, who IS and who
WAS and who IS TO COME! We know that the decoy or made-up
Hellenized messiah on which these false religions are founded WAS yet
IS NOT. He goes to destruction and all that follow him.

DESTRUCTION/PERDITION: G684 apōleia ap-o'-li-a ἀπώλεια, From a

presumed derivative of G622; ruin or loss (physical, spiritual or eternal): -
damnable (-nation), destruction, die, perdition, X perish, pernicious ways,
waste.

Let’s examine the clue in the number of the name. What would be a
number or how would you calculate it? Just as the WORD made flesh,
logos, means also a computation or divine expression we can see that
Yahoshua is the image of Yahweh as is stated in Scripture but also that
65
Yahoshua is the calculation/computation of Yahweh. Therefore, you can
conclude that the computation or calculation of the name of the
second beast which is created by the people for worship is the image
of man’s self-worship through a decoy messiah.

χ is the symbol used for the kristos of Greece/Rome, which is a

greek term for anointed that is also used for their "savior" zues. (why
do you think they call it x-mas…birth of kristos/aka tammuz)

ξ is the symbol that was the foundation for letter z and sound
dz (link to reference), and was used in ancient greek to mean zeus
(Nigel Guy Wilson, Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece, page 38).

ς means a mark, as in a badge of servitude.

When we read the acrostic in the same way you read other acrostics,
the chi xi stigma can be read as, “the christ zeus, a mark of
servitude/shame”.

As clearly revealed on wikipedia: “The use of the Ichthys

symbol by early Pagans. Ichthus (ΙΧΘΥΣ, Greek for fish) can be
read as an acrostic, a word formed from the first letters of
several words. It compiles to "Pisces, God's sun, savior," in
ancient Greek "Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, Θεοῦ Υἱός, Σωτήρ", Iēsous
Khristos Theou Huios, Sōtēr.

• Iota (i) is the first letter of Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς), Greek for

Jesus.
• Chi (kh) is the first letter of Khristos (Χριστóς), Greek for
"Christ" or "anointed".
• Theta (th) is the first letter of Theou (Θεοῦ), that means
"God's", genitive case of Θεóς, Theos, "God".
• Upsilon (u) is the first letter of huios (Υἱός), Greek for Son.
• Sigma (s) is the first letter of sōtēr (Σωτήρ), Greek for
Savior. “

Just as this acrostic is a sorcery acrostic, like a wiccan spell, so

too the chi xi stigma is a hint, an accrostic for the followers of
Yahoshua to know who the beast is. Why do you think the false
prophet beast has two horns and speaks like a lamb but acts like
a dragon? He spreads a destructive, demonic gospel. Contrast
Satan’s attempts to what Yahoshua did. Yahoshua is the Lamb of
salvation but this false beast with the false messiah message
from a satanic dragon messenger/prophet is spewing a flood of
lies and is truly like a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

2Th 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way, because the falling
away is to come first, and the man of lawlessness1 is to be
66
 revealed, the son of destruction, Footnote: 1Some texts read sin instead of
lawlessness. This man might be the same one we read of in the prophecy in Isa.
14:12 – Hĕlĕl (“Heileil”), meaning “the shining one,” the sovereign of Baḇel.

Since Yahweh is the Father who sent His son for salvation, Satan
would be the father of lies who sends a fable of a false messiah
for salvaiton which is actually destruction. Yahweh allows this:

2Th 2:9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working
of Satan, with all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,
2Th 2:10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those perishing,
because they did not receive the love of the truth, in order for them
to be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this reason Elohim sends them a working of
delusion, for them to believe the falsehood,1 Footnote: 1Eze. 20:25, John
9:39, John 12:40, Acts 7:42, Rom. 1:24-28.

2Th 2:12 in order that all should be judged who did not believe
the truth, but have delighted in the unrighteousness.

Who was the dragon, the first beast, the second beast and the
whore (and her children)?

The corrupted Jews/Pharisees and Scribes evolved into a religious

system so complicated that people were just lost and under utter
control with such a heavy burden. They are called the accusers;
they accused Yahoshua but were defeated through Yahoshua’s
accomplishments of willing death and His power to resurrect His
own life. Their religion was destroyed and they lost their priestly
authorities and crown.

In Revelation you see the dragon described as having seven

heads with ten horns and crowns on the heads. We know the
heads are symbolic of Yahweh’s assembly because He writes
letters to the seven assemblies. In each letter is a message of
failure and a message of triumph as well as an explanation of
how both are achieved depending on what we do or don’t do or
believe.

Rev 12:3 And another sign was seen in the heaven: and see, a
great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven
crowns on his heads.

Then you see the first beast with a similar appearance but now
the crowns are on the horns.

Rev 13:1 And I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast
coming up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on
his horns ten crowns, and on his heads names of blasphemy.

67
We can see that the heads have now names of blasphemy
instead of crowns. The Jews have lost their crowns and have
been thrown to the earth, or became heathens/common. The
beast coming out of the sea seems to be referencing the people;
Hellenization by the Greeks who are known as the people of the
sea since they were great sea warriors. The names of blasphemy
are the titles and changes of abominations done through this
Hellenization movement which continues through this day as well
as the other eras of idolatry like the Babylonian exile era.

Rev 13:2 And the beast I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were
like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the
dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority.

We see that this beast has differing attributes of agility, crushing

power and devours like a lion. The Greco-Roman era may come
to mind especially when one considers the military campaigns of
Alexander the Great and the religious significance of Constantine
the Great. However we see now that the dragon gave away his
power to the first beast; gave his power and authority to him.
We also see that the beast of the sea or people has crowns on
his horns which are later described as sovereigns. This indicates
that authority was given to the world kings rather than theocratic
kings like in the Old Testament kingdoms. Let us consider these
as the Catholic/Anglican kingdoms of Europe? We can see many
similarities between the apostate Jews and the Catholic/Christian
religions.

Then comes the corruption of the era after Yahoshua, when His
apostles were persecuted by the dragon and eventually this new
gospel became a copy of the dragon’s religion; hence the first
beast. The second beast is the prophet/decoy messiah of the first
beast.

Rev 13:11 And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and
he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.

This beast is compared to a lamb but speaks like a dragon; an

accuser and a liar. Who does that even today? The false-decoy
church with the false decoy messiah. Coming out of the earth
reminds me of the Romans which is exactly what Constantine
did. He revived the Roman Empire which was almost defeated
except that he moved the capital to Byzantine and renamed it
Constantinople. He even had the city updated to resemble the
landscape of Jerusalem with seven hills around it. He also
conjured up the traditions and creeds followed today. We are told
that these traditions and fables are truth but in reality they
resemble nothing of our Father Yahweh and His Anointed Son
Yahoshua, but resemble more the Greco, Roman, Persian,

68
Babylonian, Egyptian mythological stories. Please read about
Yahweh’s feasts and Sabbaths.

You may be asking yourself about the mark of the beast being
required or people will be put to death, those who did not
worship the beast and his image. They also do not allow for
buying or selling unless you have the mark. In some countries
the stores are all closed on the first day of the week or the decoy
Sabbath of the apostate church and open only on Yahweh’s
Sabbath or 7th day of the week.

Have you heard about the inquisition? Wikipedia, a nice source,

states that, “the term Inquisition can apply to any one of
several institutions charged with trying and convicting heretics
(or other offenders against canon law) within the Catholic
Church.”
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inquisition#Inquisition_movements).
The inquisition is still going on when you go to a church and
question their dogma; they don’t like it and may even kick you
out. They are buying and selling what is not theirs to transact:
salvation. It is clear in Scripture that one does not need to join
any organization or be taught by another man but perhaps we
can be for each other brothers and sisters supporting each other
and helping each other stay on the Narrow Path.

Yahoshua alone is the HEAD of his assembly. Not the pope, not a
pastor, not Billy Graham. Only Yahoshua. No divisions are
righteousness. Yahudim, the people of Yah are not divided; they
are of one mind in Yahoshua. Not I or anyone else who rights
a book to share what they have learned has any right to
judge you in your journey or in your decisions. However,
out of love for the people of our Father, and for love of His
TRUTH and respect of what He has shown me, I have to share it
and say it bluntly so that there is no confusion as to what I have
to share. The beast is the religion and the whore is the body of
people following the religion. The second beast is the decoy
messiah and those waiting for fulfillment of prophecy through
the UN and other secular interpretations will be deceived and
feel comfortable remaining in their idolatry. What these nations
are doing is abominable but they all follow a religion and walk in
idolatry and they want to take you with them. The money is not
the problem, the corruption of the heart is. The deaf ear and the
blind eye unable to hear or see the Truth is the problem but is
recoverable with Yahoshua.

So you see that people who do not love the Truth, those who do not
seek it and love to love their unrighteousness will be judged on that
Great Day by a Just and Worthy One and until then haters of Truth will
be allowed to follow the lies of Satan. Why would a loving Creator do
this? If your child hates you and disobeys you, what choice do you
69
have but to be stern? What if that child grows up to become a
prostitute or drug addict who steals from you all the time and prefers
his drugs over recovery? Even if you offered to pay for his recovery
and live for free with you during recovery; yet that grown-up child of
yours still wants his drugs and you know there is nothing you can do
but turn your back and hope he will choose a better way. This is like us
for Yahweh.

When we choose unrighteous, destructive lifestyles despite His

attempts to help us, we are forcing Him to turn His back on us. I
discussed earlier the changing of Yahoshua’s Name. His Name was
changed to mean nothing and what’s worse it is based on an imaginary
Greek false goddess and also use the title lord which is equated with
very evil deities.

Someone’s name is important. To change your name, you have to go

to the court system to have it changed officially. You carry on your
family name and pass on the legacy through the teachings of your
families customs to your children. If you still think the Name of
Yahoshua does not matter after reading all of this, then perhaps the
next section will show you how important this really is.

Rev 22:4 And they shall see His face, and His
Name shall be upon their foreheads.
Rev 22:12 “And see, I am coming speedily, and My reward is with
Me, to give to each according to his work.1 Footnote: 1See Mt. 16:27,
John 5:29.
Rev 22:13 “I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the
End, the First and the Last.
Rev 22:14 “Blessed are those1 doing His commands,2 so
that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of life, and to enter
through the gates into the city. Footnotes: 1See Mt. 19:17. 2Long
before the books were compiled to form “The New Testament,” Rev.
22:14 was quoted, as it is here given, by Tertullian (CE 208), and by
Cyprian (CE 251) – see the well-known Antenicene Fathers.
Rev 22:15 “But outside are the dogs and those who
enchant with drugs, and those who whore, and the
murderers, and the idolaters, and all who love and do
falsehood.1 Footnote: 1See 21:27, 2 Thess. 2:11.
Rev 22:16 “I, ‫יהושע‬, have sent My messenger to witness to you these
matters in the assemblies. I am the Root and the Offspring of Dawiḏ,1
the Bright and Morning Star.” Footnote: 1Isa. 11:1 & 10, Rev. 5:5.
Rev 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And he who
hears, let him say, “Come!” And he who thirsts, come!
And he who desires it, take the water of life
without paying!

70
Rev 22:18 For I witness to everyone hearing the words of the
prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to them, Elohim shall add to
him the plagues that are written in this book,
Rev 22:19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of
this prophecy, Elohim shall take away his part from the Book of Life,
and out of the set-apart city, which are written in this Book.
Rev 22:20 He that bears witness of these matters says, “Yes, I am
coming speedily.” Amĕn. Yes, come, Master ‫!יהושע‬
Rev 22:21 The favour of our Master ‫ יהושע‬Messiah be with the set-
apart ones. Amĕn.

 “The Unforgivable Sin”

Heb 10:15 And the Set-apart Spirit also witnesses to us, for after
having said before,
Heb 10:16 “This is the covenant that I shall make with them after
those days, says ‫יהוה‬, giving My laws into their hearts, and in their
minds I shall write them,”1 Footnote: 1Jer. 31:33, Heb. 8:8-12.
Heb 10:17 and, “Their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall remember
no more.”
Heb 10:18 Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no
longer a slaughter offering for sin.
Heb 10:19 So, brothers, having boldness to enter into the Set-apart
Place by the blood of ‫יהושע‬,
Heb 10:20 by a new and living way which He instituted for us,
through the veil, that is, His flesh,
Heb 10:21 and having a High Priest over the House of Elohim,
Heb 10:22 let us draw near with a true heart in completeness of
belief, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and
our bodies washed with clean water.
Heb 10:23 Let us hold fast the confession of our expectation
without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy.
Heb 10:24 And let us be concerned for one another in order to stir
up love and good works,1 Footnote: 1Mt. 16:27.
Heb 10:25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is
the habit of some, but encouraging, and so much more as you see
the Day coming near.
Heb 10:26 For if we sin purposely after we have received the
knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a slaughter
offering for sins,1 Footnote: 1See also 6:6, Heb. 9:7, Num. 15:15-28.
Heb 10:27 but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce
fire which is about to consume the opponents.
Heb 10:28 Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Mosheh dies
without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses.
Heb 10:29 How much worse punishment do you think shall he
deserve who has trampled the Son of Elohim underfoot,
counted the blood of the covenant by which he was set
apart as common, and insulted the Spirit of favour?
Heb 10:30 For we know Him who has said, “Vengeance is Mine, I
shall repay, says ‫יהוה‬.” And again, “‫ יהוה‬shall judge His people.”
Heb 10:31 It is fearsome to fall into the hands of the living Elohim.

Do you see what is written in Hebrews 10:26? If you sin on purpose

there is no longer any sacrifice to cover those sins. That is why
Yahoshua tells the prostitute to “sin no more” after He forgave her.
Don’t sin anymore. However, if you read this booklet and don’t think
about the consequences of hallowing His Name as He says to do in the

72
prayer He teaches to the apostles, and we instead receive another’s
name, a name as I have shown you that is established on a Greek
pagan deity, then what offering can cover that now that you KNOW it?
What offering can cover your sins for participating in pagan feasts?
There are so many well written books about the paganism and the
prophesies surrounding the lies in religion. I though of including a lot
more but that is not what I am called to do. I am called to share with
you what He has shown me about His Name and the biggest
conspiracy ever to hide and even change His name, His laws, and His
Sabbath day of rest. Do not trample on Yahoshua’s body, disregard His
sacrifice for you, then insult the Spirit that gives you life. That is not
wise.

I do not want to sound preachy. I am trying to be as forthcoming as I

can because I do not want people to think that the modern “anything
goes” and “all is forgiven” and “you can never loose your salvation”
teachings of today are truth. They are FALSE teachings. Your salvation
is in danger when you accept Yahoshua, then reject Him by going after
sin on purpose. Did you ever see the move The Matrix? In this film,
people are hooked up to machines and given a program to live inside
of mentally like a role-playing video game. This mental place is the
“matrix”. A non-reality that the stars of the movie try to free and wake
up literally into the grim and very humble real world controlled by
machines using humans for energy. The point is that in the film, one of
the characters turns against his comrades so he can be “plugged back”
into the matrix because the real life is too hard and dull for him.

I think this is an interesting modern analogy for living Yahweh’s ways

under the sacrifice and Name of Yahoshua Messiah. It IS HARD
sometimes because everything in this world pushes your mind toward
things that will take you away from Truth and Love and toward sin and
destruction. That is why our choices each day are important. That is
why some people decide to observe a weekly Sabbath or observe the
annual festivals and feasts of Yahweh. So we can better understand
Him, His Plan, and His purpose for us. Does following the Torah and
acting humble save you? Nope.

Faith. That is what saves you. But faith without works is dead and
works without faith is in vain as James says. So, have faith, and work at
living that faith. If you believe, be living that belief.

I hope and pray that everyone who reads this can find joy in knowing
the immense love our Father has for us. He has freed us from religion
and given us a direct relationship with Him. Does that mean the road is
easy? NOT AT ALL. In fact, the road is narrow and steep.

Luk 13:22 And He was going through the cities and villages, teaching,
and journeying toward Yerushalayim,
Luk 13:23 and someone said to Him, “Master, are there few who are
being saved?” And He said to them,
73
Luk 13:24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, because many, I
say to you, shall seek to enter in and shall not be able.

Luk 13:25 “When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut
the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door,
saying, ‘Master, Master, open for us,’ and He shall answer and say to
you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’

Luk 13:26 then you shall begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your
presence, and You taught in our streets.’

Luk 13:27 “But He shall say, ‘I say to you I do not know you, where you
are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of unrighteousness.’

Luk 13:28 “There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you
see Aḇraham and Yitsḥaq and Yaʽaqoḇ and all the prophets in the reign
of Elohim, and yourselves thrown outside.

Luk 13:29 “And they shall come from the east and the west, and from
the north and the south, and sit down in the reign of Elohim.

Luk 13:30 “And see, there are last who shall be first, and there are first
who shall be last.”

Overcome with Yahoshua

The message of the seven headed beast in the book of Revelation has
to have something to do with the letters to the seven assemblies. In
case you do not have a bible to read, I have included those here. The
messages are clear if you have the eyes and the ears. Do you? I have
found that sometimes I did not want to admit things to myself but
truly, Yahoshua’s Spirit pressed me to see past my own denial to finally
admit that I was participating in sin through the worldly activities and
religious blasphemies discussed here. Yet in these letters are the
messages of triumph as well as the consequences for stubborn denial
of truth. I hope you pray and read them and seek the Scriptures from
Genesis 1:1 through to Revelation 22:21.

Rev 2:1 “To the messenger of the assembly of Ephesos write,

‘He who is holding the seven stars in His right hand, who is
walking in the midst of the seven golden lamp stands, says this:
Rev 2:2 “I know your works, and your labor, and your endurance,
and that you are not able to bear evil ones, and have tried those
who say they are emissaries and are not, and have found them
false;
Rev 2:3 and you have been bearing up and have endurance, and
have labored for My Name’s sake and have not become weary.
Rev 2:4 “But I hold this against you, that you have left your first
love.
Rev 2:5 “So remember from where you have fallen, and
repent and do the first works, or else I shall come to you
speedily and remove your lamp stand from its place,
unless you repent.
Rev 2:6 “Yet this you have, that you hate the works of the
Nikolaites, which I also hate.
Rev 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies. To him who overcomes1 I shall give to eat
from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise
of Elohim.” ’2 Footnote: 1This word (and its noun) is used 17 times in the Book of
Revelation. Remember: the name Yisra’ĕl means to overcome with Ěl. 2See 22:2&14.
Rev 2:8 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Smurna write,
‘This says the First and the Last, who became dead, and came to
life:
Rev 2:9 “I know your works, and pressure, and poverty – yet you
are rich – and the blasphemy of those who say they are Yehuḏim
and are not, but are a congregation of Satan.
Rev 2:10 “Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. See,
the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, in order to try
you, and you shall have pressure ten days. Be trustworthy until
death, and I shall give you the crown of life.

75
Rev 2:11 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies. He who overcomes shall by no means be
harmed by the second death.” ’1 Footnote: 1See 20:6.
Rev 2:12 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Pergamos
write, ‘He who has the sharp two-edged sword, says this:
Rev 2:13 “I know your works, and where you dwell, where the
throne of Satan is. And you hold fast to My Name, and did not
deny the belief in Me, even in the days in which Antipas was My
trustworthy witness, who was killed near you, where Satan dwells.
Rev 2:14 “But I hold a few matters against you, because you have
there those who adhere to the teaching of Bilʽam, who taught
Balaq to put a stumbling-block before the children of Yisra’ĕl, to
eat food offered to idols, and to commit whoring.
Rev 2:15 “So you also have those who adhere to the teaching of
the Nikolaites, which teaching I hate.
Rev 2:16 “Repent, or else I shall come to you speedily and fight
against them with the sword of My mouth.
Rev 2:17 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies. To him who overcomes I shall give some of the
hidden manna to eat. And I shall give him a white stone, and
on the stone a renewed Name written which no one knows
except him who receives it.” ’
Rev 2:18 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Thyatira write,
‘This says the Son of Elohim, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and
His feet like burnished brass:
Rev 2:19 “I know your works, and love, and service, and belief,
and your endurance. And as for your works, the last are more than
the first.
Rev 2:20 “But I hold against you that you allow that woman Izeḇel,
who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and lead My servants
astray to commit whoring and to eat food offered to idols.
Rev 2:21 “And I gave her time to repent of her whoring, and she
did not repent.
Rev 2:22 “See, I am throwing her into a sickbed, and those who
commit adultery with her into great affliction, unless they repent
of their works.
Rev 2:23 “And I shall slay her children with death. And all the
assemblies shall know that I am the One searching the kidneys
and hearts. And I shall give to each one of you according to your
works.
Rev 2:24 “And to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as
do not possess this teaching, and who have not known the depths
of Satan, as they call them, I am not putting on you another
burden.
Rev 2:25 “But hold fast what you have until I come.
Rev 2:26 “And he who overcomes, and guards My works
until the end, to him I shall give authority over the nations,
Rev 2:27 and he shall shepherd them with a rod of iron, as the
potter’s vessels shall be broken to pieces,1 as I also have received
from My Father. Footnote: 1Ps. 2:9.
76
Rev 2:28 “And I shall give him the morning star.
Rev 2:29 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies.” ’

Rev 3:1 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Sardis write,

‘He who has the seven Spirits of Elohim and the seven stars, says
this, “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive,
but you are dead.
Rev 3:2 “Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is
about to die, for I have not found your works complete before
Elohim.
Rev 3:3 “Remember, then, how you have received, and heard.
And watch and repent. If, then, you do not wake up, I shall come
upon you as a thief, and you shall not know at all what hour I
come upon you.
Rev 3:4 “Nevertheless, you have a few names in Sardis who have
not defiled their garments. And they shall walk with Me in white,
because they are worthy.
Rev 3:5 “He who overcomes shall be dressed in white
robes, and I shall by no means blot out his name from the
Book of Life, but I shall confess his name before My Father
and before His messengers.
Rev 3:6 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies.” ’
Rev 3:7 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia
write, ‘He who is set-apart, He who is true, He who has the key of
Dawiḏ, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one
opens, says this:
Rev 3:8 “I know your works – see, I have set before you an open
door, and no one is able to shut it – that you have little power, yet
have guarded My Word, and have not denied My Name.
Rev 3:9 “See, I am giving up those of the congregation of Satan,
who say they are Yehuḏim and are not, but lie. See, I am making
them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have
loved you.
Rev 3:10 “Because you have guarded My Word of
endurance, I also shall guard you from the hour of trial
which shall come upon all the world, to try those who
dwell on the earth.
Rev 3:11 “See, I am coming speedily! Hold what you have that
no one take your crown.
Rev 3:12 “He who overcomes, I shall make him a
supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Elohim, and he
shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the
Name of My Elohim and the name of the city of My Elohim,
the renewed Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the
heaven from My Elohim, and My renewed Name.
Rev 3:13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to
the assemblies.” ’

77
Rev 3:14 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Laodikeia
write, ‘The Amĕn, the Trustworthy and True Witness, the
Beginning of the creation of Elohim,1 says this: Footnote: 1Col. 1:15, Heb.
1:6.
Rev 3:15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I
would that you were cold or hot.
Rev 3:16 “So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor
hot, I am going to vomit you out of My mouth.
Rev 3:17 “Because you say, ‘Rich I am, and I am made rich, and
need none at all,’ and do not know that you are wretched, and
pitiable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
Rev 3:18 “I advise you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire,1 so
that you become rich; and white garments, so that you become
dressed, so that the shame of your nakedness might not be
shown; and anoint your eyes with ointment, so that you see.
Footnote: 1Ps. 19:10, Ps. 119:72 & 127, Prov. 30:5.
Rev 3:19 “As many as I love, I reprove and discipline. So be
ardent and repent.

My voice and opens the door, I shall come in to him and
dine with him, and he with Me.

on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My
Father on His throne.
Rev 3:22 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to

HalleluYah!
You saw in those versus that some people eat foods for idols,
spiritually that refers to bread with bad leavening or false
teachings. Also warned is that there are those who say they are
followers of Yahoshua but lie and should be found liars. He warns
us repeatedly to repent and buy gold from Him and if we
overcome we are rewarded with the most glorious reward ever
imagined. It is not easy and it does require that we turn our hearts
away from lusts, desire for status, money, cars, houses, jewelry,
perfect bodies, perfect health, don’t believe the lies told by the
world and to stand up for Truth. When you stand up for Truth you
will become a target because people are afraid of controversy and
want to just go with the flow.

Yahoshua is real and with Him we can overcome. After all, that is
the meaning of Yisra’ĕl. He does rule as El (The Almighty). He truly
is the Way, the Truth, and the Life and no one comes to the Father
but through Him. His Name carries the Father’s Name, the
meaning of His Name is specifically to reflect the salvation and
deliverance He offers to you and to me and to everyone who is
willing to leave the dusty and dying world behind for the living
world. Once you take that decision and deeply want to know Him,
there will be other decisions you will be asked by the Set-Apart
Spirit to take. But that is the journey and I have loved it. Yes
sometimes it is hard, but I will not ever, ever trade in my crown of
life for a crown of thorns. The Truth sets you Free. Yahoshua is the
Truth. With Him you are free.

Rev 22:12 “And see, I am coming speedily, and My reward is with

Me, to give to each according to his work.1 Footnote: 1See Mt. 16:27, John
5:29.
Rev 22:13 “I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the
End, the First and the Last.
Rev 22:14 “Blessed are those1 doing His commands,2 so that the
authority shall be theirs unto the tree of life, and to enter through
the gates into the city. Footnotes: 1See Mt. 19:17. 2Long before the books were
compiled to form “The New Testament,” Rev. 22:14 was quoted, as it is here given, by
Tertullian (CE 208), and by Cyprian (CE 251) – see the well-known Antenicene Fathers.
Rev 22:15 “But outside are the dogs and those who enchant with
drugs, and those who whore, and the murderers, and the
idolaters, and all who love and do falsehood.1 Footnote: 1See 21:27, 2
Thess. 2:11.
Rev 22:16 “I, ‫יהושע‬, have sent My messenger to witness to you
these matters in the assemblies. I am the Root and the Offspring
of Dawiḏ,1 the Bright and Morning Star.” Footnote: 1Isa. 11:1 & 10, Rev.
5:5.
Rev 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And he who
hears, let him say, “Come!” And he who thirsts, come! And he
who desires it, take the water of life without paying!

79
Rev 22:18 For I witness to everyone hearing the words of the
prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to them, Elohim shall add to
him the plagues that are written in this book,
Rev 22:19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of
this prophecy, Elohim shall take away his part from the Book of
Life, and out of the set-apart city, which are written in this Book.
Rev 22:20 He that bears witness of these matters says, “Yes, I am
coming speedily.” Amĕn. Yes, come, Master ‫!יהושע‬
Rev 22:21 The favour of our Master ‫ יהושע‬Messiah be with the set-
apart ones. Amĕn.

The gospel is in your hands, what will you do with it? That is your
decision. Listen to your soul; listen intently because Yahweh is
calling you to Him.

For everyone who thinks they bring the gospel or Good News to
everyone please consider this verse regarding the name you
share with people. The Name is special and set apart. Holy.

Isa 52:5 “And now, what have I here,” declares ‫יהוה‬, “that My people
are taken away for naught? Those who rule over them make them
wail,” declares ‫יהוה‬, “and My Name is despised all day continually.
Isa 52:6 “Therefore My people shall know My Name, in that day, for I
am the One who is speaking. See, it is I.”
Isa 52:7 How pleasant upon the mountains are the feet of him who
brings good news, who proclaims peace, who brings good news, who
proclaims deliverance, who says to Tsiyon, “Your Elohim reigns!”

Receive and share the Good News in Yahweh’s Word, the Word
made flesh, Yahoshua. See the changes He will bring to your life if
your heart is beating for Him. Fear not the changes He will make
in your life and remember that this world is passing away.
Investment in it is like investing in manure. It stinks and it’s good
for fertilization of future plants. You are precious to your Father,
Yahweh. Imagine how much you love your kids, or your mom and
dad or brothers and sisters or life-long friends, and realize that
Yahweh has millions and millions of His children He loves. You are
important and unique and special to Him. Your life matters to Him.
You are here for a reason and He can use you to do great things
with your faith in Him. When Yahweh works in your life, it is the
most rewarding and beautiful thing ever imagined. I hope you will
explore the unbeaten path and go on this adventure to seek the
hidden treasures of Yahoshua the Messiah.

Rev 21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the heaven saying,
“See, the Booth of Elohim is with men, and He shall dwell with
them, and they shall be His people, and Elohim Himself shall be
with them and be their Elohim.
Rev 21:4 “And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their
eyes, and there shall be no more death, nor mourning, nor

80
crying. And there shall be no more pain, for the former matters
have passed away.”
Rev 21:5 And He who was sitting on the throne said, “See, I
make all matters new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these
words are true and trustworthy.”
Rev 21:6 And He said to me, “It is done! I am the ‘Aleph’ and
the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the End. To the one who thirsts I
shall give of the fountain of the water of life without payment.
Rev 21:7 “The one who overcomes shall inherit all this, and I
shall be his Elohim and he shall be My son.

81
Proverb 2

Pro 2:1 My son, if you accept my words, And treasure up my commands with you,
Pro 2:2 So that you make your ear attend to wisdom, Incline your heart to
understanding;
Pro 2:3 For if you cry for discernment, Lift up your voice for understanding,
Pro 2:4 If you seek her as silver, And search for her as hidden treasures,
Pro 2:5 Then you would understand the fear of ‫יהוה‬, And find the knowledge of
Elohim.
Pro 2:6 For ‫ יהוה‬gives wisdom; Out of His mouth come knowledge and
understanding.
Pro 2:7 And He treasures up stability for the straight, A shield to those walking
blamelessly,
Pro 2:8 To watch over the paths of right-ruling, And the way of His kind ones He
guards.
Pro 2:9 Then you would understand righteousness And right-ruling, and
straightness – Every good path.
Pro 2:10 For wisdom would enter your heart, And knowledge be pleasant to your
being,
Pro 2:11 Discretion would guard you; Understanding would watch over you,
Pro 2:12 To deliver you from the evil way, From the man who speaks perversities,
Pro 2:13 Those who leave the paths of straightness To walk in the ways of
darkness;
Pro 2:14 Who rejoice to do evil; They delight in the perversities of evil;
Pro 2:15 Whose paths are crooked, And they are perverted in their ways;
Pro 2:16 To deliver you from the strange woman, From the foreigner who flatters
with her words,
Pro 2:17 Who forsakes the companion of her youth, And has forgotten the
covenant of her Elohim.
Pro 2:18 For her house has sunk down to death, And her paths to the dead;
Pro 2:19 None going in to her does return, Nor do they reach the paths of life –
Pro 2:20 So walk in the way of goodness, And guard the paths of righteousness.
Pro 2:21 For the straight shall dwell in the earth, And the perfect be left in it;
Pro 2:22 But the wrong shall be cut off from the earth, And the treacherous ones
plucked out of it.

 APPENDIX:

1. SEPTUAGINT (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septuagint)

It is the oldest of several ancient translations of the Hebrew Bible

into Greek, lingua franca of the eastern Mediterranean Basin from
the time of Alexander the Great (356-323 BC). The word
septuaginta[2] means "seventy" in Latin and derives from a
tradition that seventy (or seventy-two) Jewish scholars translated
the Pentateuch (Torah) from Hebrew into Greek for Ptolemy II
Philadelphus, 285–246 BC.[3][4]

The Septuagint includes some books not found in the Hebrew

Bible. Many Protestant Bibles follow the Jewish canon and exclude
the additional books. Roman Catholics, however, include some of
these books in their canon while Eastern Orthodox Churches use
all the books of the Septuagint. Anglican lectionaries also use all
of the books except Psalm 151, and the full Authorized (King
James) Version includes these additional books in a separate
section labelled the "Apocrypha".

“Other names are Alexandrian, Hellenistic, Patristic,

Common, or New Testament Greek. Original names were koine,
Hellenic, Alexandrian and Macedonian (Macedonic)[“

“The varieties of Koine spoken in the Ionian colonies of Asia Minor

and Cyprus would have more intense Ionic characteristics than
others. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koine_Greek)”

Jewish scholars first translated the Torah into Koine Greek in the
third century BC[6]. Further books were translated over the next
two centuries. It is not altogether clear which was translated
when, or where; some may even have been translated twice, into
different versions, and then revised.[7] The quality and style of the
different translators also varied considerably from book to book,
from the literal to paraphrasing to interpretative. According to one
assessment "the Pentateuch is reasonably well translated, but the
rest of the books, especially the poetical books, are often very
poorly done and even contain sheer absurdities".[8]
