  1. For those who believe, and especially those who teach the Millennial Reign Doctrine, I have questions for you. Please, explain how this fits your MRD? Our Master, Savior, King, Mediator, High Priest, and Friend told us that He is coming back “to take us to be with Him in His Father’s House”. So, please explain how by this MRD that He doesn’t come to take us, like He said, but is coming to stay here? What does the one who is coming say? The Word of the Master, who only spoke what He heard His Father say. Here are some scriptures pertaining to our Savior taking us to be with Him: Matthew 24:29-31 (also in Mk 13:24-27) Mat 24:29 “Immediately (means directly, immediate) after the suffering (tribulation) of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light (a time when there’s no more sun or moon (Rev 21:23, Isa 60:19…), it’s the beginning of an eternal day that is “forever” just like Peter said, and also the reason it’s an eternal Shabbat, because there are no more number of days, because there’s no more “darkness” separating the days from the nights, we enter into His eternal rest); the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken. Mat 24:30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear (appear; the living and the dead are judged at His appearing, 2Tim 4:1, and this is everyone from the beginning of Adam, and the whole house of Israel, Ezek. 37) in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man arriving (coming, appear) on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. The Taking Away at His appearing (Matt. 24:29-31 continued): Mat 24:31 And (meaning in conjunction with His appearing)He will send His angels with a loud trumpet blast, and they will gather (take away) his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other (Ezek. 37). (taking us off this earth) This is what YAH says about His day when He and Yahshua return to take us, and also the place where They are taking us to. Ezek. 37 is all about the day when Yah and Yahshua return, and when “the whole house of Israel” is resurrected and receives new bodies and go into His Sanctuary, New Jerusalem. Eze 37:21 Then tell them, ‘This is what the Sovereign ELOHYIM says: Look, I am about to take the Israelites from among the nations where they have gone. I will gather (to take away) them from round about and bring them to their land. Eze 37:26 I will make a covenant (new) of peace with them; it will be a perpetual covenant with them. I will establish them, increase their numbers, and place my sanctuary among them forever. Eze 37:27 My dwelling place will be with them; I will be their God, and they will be my people. Eze 37:28 Then, when my sanctuary is among them forever, the nations will know that I, the LORD, sanctify Israel (new bodies when at His appearing and judgment we are taken up into New Jerusalem).’ Thieves Take What is “Costly and Precious”, and they don’t stick around: Mat 24:43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming (to take), he would have been alert and would not have let his house be broken into. Mat 24:44 Therefore you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come (to take) at an hour when you do not expect him. Rev 3:3 Therefore, remember what you received and heard, and obey it, and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come (to take) like a thief, and you will never know at what hour I will come against you. Rev 16:15 (Look! I will come (to take) like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays alert and does not lose his clothes so that he will not have to walk around naked and his shameful condition be seen.) This is the Word spoken by our Messiah, and written by John: Joh 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be distressed. You believe in YAH; believe also in me. Joh 14:2 There are many dwelling places in my Father’s house. Otherwise, I would have told you, because I am going away to make ready a place for you. Joh 14:3 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too. Joh 14:4 And you know the way where I am going.” Joh 14:5 Thomas said, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Joh 14:6 Yahshua replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes (Into New Jerusalem) to the Father (His dwelling place) except through me (on Judgment Day). The context here in Jn. 14 is all about, “where He and His Father are”, and is also where He is TAKING us to be with Them! This place isn’t on this earth that They are taking us to, and the promise of our hope is the new heavens and earth, “Where Righteousness Truly Resides”, which is in the “Father’s House”! 2Pe 3:13 But, according to his promise, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness truly resides. (Righteousness resides where our Father is, His House, the “Sanctuary” that will be among us forever on the new earth!) These heavens and earth cease to exist when we are Taken up into New Jerusalem, after judgment, when we become sanctified, receiving our new bodies, and New Jerusalem only comes down on the new earth! All of these scriptures show us that They are taking us away, to be with Them, and not Them coming to be with us! Rev 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and earth had ceased to exist, and the sea existed no more. Rev 21:2 And I saw the holy city – the new Jerusalem – descending out of heaven from YAH, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. A parable about the “Taking Away” and at the end of the age (end of this world), the angels first “take away” the sinners to be burned, and then the angels take His elect into the “barn”, which is New Jerusalem. So, at His appearing, is the final resurrection and judgment of all, and sinners are first to be gathered to be burned, so then there are no sinners left the day He comes to take us! Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First collect the darnel (sinners) and tie it in bundles to be burned, but then gather (take away) the wheat (the elect) into my barn (New Jerusalem).”’” Mat 13:36 Then He left the crowds and went into the house. And His disciples came to him saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel in the field.” Mat 13:37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. Mat 13:38 The field is the world and the good seed are the people of the kingdom. The poisonous weeds are the people of the evil one, Mat 13:39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age (world), and the reapers are angels. Mat 13:40 As the poisonous weeds are collected and burned with fire, so it will be at the “end of the age” (end of the world). Mat 13:41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom everything that causes sin as well as all lawbreakers. Mat 13:42 They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Mat 13:43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father (The father’s House is New Jerusalem, the place we are going to be “Taken” to Immediately at His return). The one who has ears had better listen! (Our Father’s Kingdom is not in or from this world!) 1Th 4:16 For Yahshua himself will come down from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of YAH, and the dead in Yahshua will rise first. 1Th 4:17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be suddenly caught up together with them in the clouds to meet Yahshua in the air. And so we will always be with the Yahshua. 1Th 4:18 Therefore encourage one another with these words. (At His appearing He takes us to forever be with Him!)
  2. We are required by Yah to listen and obey Yahshua! Act 3:22 Moses said, ‘YAH your Elohyim will raise up for you a prophet like me (Moses) from among your brothers. You must obey him in everything he tells you. Act 3:23 Every person who does not obey that prophet will be destroyed and thus removed from the people.’ Yahshua is coming quickly and our reward is coming with Him, which is either eternal life or eternal death, the second death! Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be (JUDGMENT DAY!). When Yahshua returns and “gives to every man their reward according to their work”, then the reward of sinners is in eternal death, the second death, and not a place in His kingdom. The millennial reign doctrine teaches the opposite of what Yah and Yahshua said and taught, and what is written! It also makes one say Yah and Yahshua are liars! Yahshua said: Joh 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be distressed. You believe in YAH; believe also in me. Joh 14:2 There are many dwelling places in my Father’s house. Otherwise, I would have told you, because I am going away to make ready a place for you. Joh 14:3 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too. Joh 14:4 And you know the way where I am going.” Joh 14:5 Thomas said, “Master, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Joh 14:6 Yahshua replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life (The Way into the “Father’s House”, New Jerusalem). No one comes to the Father except through me. Joh 14:7 If you have known me, you will know my Father too. And from now on you do know him and have seen him.” Joh 14:8 Philip said, “Master, show us the Father, and we will be content.” Joh 14:9 Yahshua replied, “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father! How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? (Yahshua only spoke what He heard the Father say, and only did what He saw His Father do, being the “Perfect Image”) Joh 14:10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you, I do not speak on my own initiative, but the Father residing in me performs his miraculous deeds. Joh 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me, but if you do not believe me, believe because of the miraculous deeds themselves. Joh 14:12 I tell you the solemn truth, the person who believes in me will perform the miraculous deeds that I am doing, and will perform greater deeds than these, because I am going to the Father. Joh 14:13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Joh 14:14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it. Joh 14:15 “If you love me, you will obey my commandments. 1. As 2nd Peter 3:2 says in regard to the day of judgment, “I want you to recall both the predictions foretold by the holy prophets and “the commandment of Yahshua” through your apostles”. In Jn. 14:15 Yahshua is saying what Peter wrote, in regard to that day, Yahshua is giving a commandment to love and obey Him. To love and obey Yahshua and our Father is to believe exactly what they said about how we are to live our lives, but also about what they say about that day when Yah and Yahshua return. 2. In John 14 John who wrote Revelation, tells us Yahshua’s very Words, which only came from the Father. Yahshua said when He returns that He is taking us to be with Him, and not that He is coming to be with us. Yahshua only came for the “House of Israel” (Mat 15:24 So he answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”)! Yahshua didn’t come to bring sinners into His Father’s house, but only the “Elect” of Yah! The millennial reign doctrine teaches Yahshua will let those who survive when He returns, who aren’t Yah’s elect, the house of Israel, that they will go into this kingdom on this old earth, but the day Yahshua comes is the judgment for all of the “Living and the Dead”. 2Ti 4:1 I solemnly charge you before YAH and YAHSHUA, who is going to judge the living and the dead, and at His appearing and His kingdom: This is what Yahshua also said, besides what He gave as a commandment to the apostles to write down and teach: Mat 24:29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken. (See 2Pet. 3) Mat 24:30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man arriving on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Mat 24:31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet blast, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. You can’t be gathered by His angels without first going through “Judgment”, and all sinners will not be gathered up into the Father’s House, New Jerusalem! New Jerusalem doesn’t come down on this old earth! Rev 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and earth had ceased to exist, and the sea existed no more. Rev 21:2 And I saw the holy city – the new Jerusalem – descending out of heaven from YAH, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. Rev 21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Look! The residence of YAH is among human beings. He will live among them, and they will be his people, and YAH himself will be with them. This is where “righteousness truly resides”, and it’s not on this earth: 2Pe 3:13 But, according to his promise, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness truly resides. Judgment and the gathering of His elect comes quickly, immediately, suddenly, in a moment, in a blink of an eye, and it’s at Yahshua’s appearing, as it is written! 1Co 15:50 Now this is what I am saying, brothers and sisters: Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 1Co 15:51 Listen, I will tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed – 1Co 15:52 in a moment, in the blinking of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. (Do you see any sinners being changed and going into the Father’s House?)1Co 15:53 For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality. 1Co 15:54 Now when this perishable puts on the imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then the saying that is written will happen, “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” 1Co 15:55 “Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” 1Co 15:56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 1Co 15:57 But thanks be to YAH, who gives us the victory through our Master Yahshua HaMashiach! 1Co 15:58 So then, dear brothers and sisters, be firm. Do not be moved! Always be outstanding in the work of the Master, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Master. 3) Because of this millennial reign doctrine they also have as the Word says, “ the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they also do to the rest of the scriptures. NOTE: all of 2Pet. 3 is about the day of Yah when Yahshua returns. 2Pe 3:15 And regard the patience of our Master as salvation, just as also our dear brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him, 2Pe 3:16 speaking of these things in all his letters (Paul, in all his letters wrote about the “Day of Judgment”). Some things in these letters are hard to understand, things the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they also do to the rest of the scriptures. 2Pe 3:17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard that you do not get led astray by the error of these unprincipled men and fall from your firm grasp on the truth. 2Pe 3:18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Master and Savior Yahshua HaMashiach. To Him be the honor both now and on that eternal day. We are to “grow in the knowledge of Yahshua (What He said)” and not the doctrines of men (A millennial reign teaching)! 4) Those who believe and teach this millennial reign doctrine try to prove by Zechariah 14, that there are survivors, other than Israel, on judgment day, which they also don’t believe is judgment day and that it’s not until the end of the thousand year reign on this earth, and that these sinners will go into this kingdom on this earth. But because we know that these people have lost their firm grasp of the Truth, and have been led astray even in other places of scripture, they have no understanding of what Zechariah and others said. This is the judgment for all sinners who oppose Yah and Jerusalem! If they understood the scriptures then they would know that Jerusalem is “New Jerusalem”, and New Jerusalem is Yah, Yahshua, and His elect, the Two Sticks, Israel! Zec 14:12 But this will be the nature of the plague (Judgment) with which YAH will strike all the nations that have fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will decay while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot away in their sockets, and their tongues will dissolve in their mouths. This is Jerusalem on “That Day” spoken by the prophet Zechariah: Rev 3:11 I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have so that no one can take away your crown. Rev 3:12 The one who conquers I will make a pillar in the temple of YAH, and he will never depart from it. I will write on him the name of YAH and the name of the City of YAH (the new Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from YAH), and my new name as well. Rev 3:13 The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’ Rev 21:27 but nothing ritually unclean will ever enter into it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or practices falsehood, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life. Rev 21:22 Now I saw no temple in the city, because YAH our Elohyim – the All-Powerful – and the Lamb are its temple. Rev 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, because the glory of YAH lights it up, and its lamp is the Lamb. Rev 21:24 The nations will walk by its light and the kings of the earth will bring their grandeur into it. Rev 21:25 Its gates will never be closed during the day (An Eternal Day, and there will be no night there). Rev 21:26 They will bring the grandeur and the wealth of the nations into it, Rev 21:27 but nothing ritually unclean will ever enter into it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or practices falsehood, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life. 5) It’s absolutely certain by what the Word says that the second and final resurrection is at Yahshua’s appearing on “Judgment Day”. That means the first resurrection has happened and was before Yahshua returns for the second time. The First Resurrection happened when Yahshua went to reign as our King from heaven, but the literal millennial reign doctrine teaches the first resurrection of saints is when Yahshua returns, which is in direct opposition to the Word as already shown! Mat 27:52 And tombs (Graves) were opened (Resurrection), and the bodies of many saints who had died were raised. Mat 27:53 (They came out of the tombs after His resurrection (Yahshua being the “First-fruit”) and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.) Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is the one who takes part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of YAH and of Yahshua, and they will reign with him for a thousand years This thousand years is symbolic, as in the rest of scripture when referring to “one thousand”, as an undefined period of time. Examples: Exo 20:6 and showing covenant faithfulness to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. Deu 7:9 So realize that YAH is the true Elohyim, the faithful Elohyim who keeps covenant faithfully with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations, Deu 7:10 but who pays back those who hate him as they deserve and destroys them. He will not ignore those who hate him but will repay them as they deserve! (see Rev. 22:12 again, His reward is with Him…) 6) The literal millennial reign doctrine says when Yahshua returns is when Satan is cast out, but that’s not what the Word Yahshua said! This is John writing Yahshua’s Words who also wrote Revelation: Joh 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out (Translates “ejected”). Now we can see what is written, and how Yahshua is our King from heaven and not from this world. The “kingdom of Yah” is within us (Lk. 17:21), and that kingdom has a “King”, Yahshua the Word that’s to be in us, the “Spirit of Truth”! Again this is John who wrote Revelation: Joh 18:36 Yahshua replied, “My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my servants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jewish authorities. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.” This is the reason that we have a “BETTER COVENANT”: Heb 8:6 But now Yahshua has obtained a superior ministry, since the covenant that he mediates is also better and is enacted on better promises (No more earthly temple, priests, or animal sacrifices, read Heb 7:27-28). Heb 8:1 Now the main point of what we are saying is this: We have such a High Priest, one who sat down at the right hand of the throne (The power given to be our KING) of the Majesty in heaven, Heb 8:2 a minister in the sanctuary and the true tabernacle that YAH, not man, set up. Heb 8:3 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. So this one too had to have something to offer. Heb 8:4 Now if he were on earth, Yahshua would not be a priest, since there are already priests (mediating) who offer the gifts prescribed by the law. Yahshua was born to be our King until He hands it over to Yah His father! This is John who wrote Revelation: Joh 18:37 Then Pilate said, “So you are a king!” Yahshua replied, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I was born, and for this reason I came into the world – to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.” Yahshua is to reign in our hearts as King over His Kingdom within us, the Word, by Spirit and Truth! 2Co 4:6 For YAH, who said “Let light shine out of darkness,” is the one who shined in our hearts to give us the light of the glorious knowledge of YAH in the face of Yahshua. 7) Yahshua must reign until that final enemy “Death” has been destroyed, and that’s on “Judgment Day” when Yahshua appears! 1Co 15:25 For Yahshua must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 1Co 15:26 The last enemy to be eliminated is death. 1Co 15:24 Then comes the end, when Yahshua hands over the kingdom to YAH the Father, when he has brought to an end all rule and all authority and power (The kingdoms of this world and finally DEATH). Rev 11:15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of YAH and of Yahshua, and he will reign for ever and ever.” (Not a thousand years on this earth) 1Co 15:25 For Yahshua must reign… G936 “REIGN” From G935; to rule (literally or figuratively): - king, reign. Rom 10:17 Consequently faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the preached Word of Yahshua. Don’t try to get your understanding from a verse or two, or try and use Yah’s Spirit like some kind of “easy way to your truth”, and without studying diligently about all that is written on any given topic. Truth is shown to us in the Word, but only if you use what is required for understanding Truth! Take everything Yahshua and His apostle’s wrote concerning that day and see if it at all lines up with the doctrines being taught. Act 17:11 These were more open-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they eagerly received the message, examining the scriptures carefully every day to see if these things were so. Understand what Galatians says: Gal 1:6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are following a different gospel – Gal 1:7 not that there really is another gospel, but there are some who are disturbing you and wanting to distort the gospel of Yahshua. Gal 1:8 But even if we (or an angel from heaven) should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be condemned to the curse! Gal 1:9 As we have said before, and now I say again, if anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, let him be condemned to the curse! Gal 1:10 Am I now trying to gain the approval of people, or of YAH? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a slave of Yahshua! Those who believe and teach in direct opposition to what Yahshua said is under a curse and can’t understand scripture elsewhere as well, they have become blinded to the Truth in Yah’s Word! That “Day of Yahshua’s return”, and is also the “Day of Judgment” is throughout the “Gospels”, from Yahshua Himself and written as commanded by Yahshua to the apostle’s, including many parables. They don’t understand who a true Israelite is, was, and will forever be! They don’t even know what a “True Jew is”, and that it has never been by the blood of men. They believe that Yah brought an evil and extremely wicked people back into a piece of land leased by man (The Rothschild's) that they falsely call Israel. It is Yah at Yahshua’s return that the angels will gather us up into New Jerusalem, and to come down on the new earth. If they would study history they would find that the three world wars were all predicted and determined long before these wars ever happened. Research for yourself Albert Pike and what he predicted about these three world wars, which came from our Adversary, Satan. This happened to deceive, and in their own words “bring an end to Christianity”!!! Yah’s promise was as written; 2Pe 3:13 But, according to His promise, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness truly resides. (Not for a thousand year reign on this earth) What does the Word tell us about who and what are Jews? Rom 2:28 For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision something that is outward in the flesh, Rom 2:29 but someone is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart by the Spirit and not by the letter. This person’s praise is not from people but from YAH. Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female – for all of you are one in Yahshua HaMashiach. Gal 3:29 And if you belong to Yahshua, then you are Abraham’s descendants (ISRAEL), heirs according to the promise. The promise, again: 2Pe 3:13 But, according to “His Promise”, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness truly resides (New Jerusalem). Those in the land today, that they falsely call Israel, are the “synagogue of Satan”, and neither have the Father or the Son, and are better known in scripture as “Anti-Christ’s”! Yah didn’t gather these people with His angels to bring them into a land leased by a man. Yah has established His Temple, and His Temple is Himself, Yahshua, and the House of Israel. Are those in the land (leased by a man) a repented people who established the Torah as the “Supreme Law” of Yah’s Land? NO! These are those who reject the Messiah and don’t have the Father either!!! 1Jn 2:20 Nevertheless you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know. 1Jn 2:21 I have not written to you that you do not know the truth, but that you do know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 1Jn 2:22 Who is the liar but the person who denies that Yahshua HaMashiach? This one is the antichrist: the person who denies the Father and the Son. 1Jn 2:23 Everyone who denies the Son does not have the Father either. The person who confesses the Son has the Father also. 1Jn 2:24 As for you, what you have heard from the beginning must remain in you. If what you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father. Why do you think it’s written about the last days that John writes of Jews who aren’t Jews? Because they are NOT, according to the Word! Rev 2:9 ‘I know the distress you are suffering and your poverty (but you are rich). I also know the slander against you by those who call themselves Jews and really are not, but are a synagogue of Satan. Rev 3:9 Listen! I am going to make those people from the synagogue of Satan – who say they are Jews yet are not, but are lying – Look, I will make them come and bow down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you. The construction of Jerusalem began when Yahshua went to reign as our King from the right hand of the Father. This is what Yahshua was telling us in John 14 when He said He was going away to make a place for us and is returning to take us to be with Him. He comes like a thief (2Pet 3:10), to take His prize possession Israel, the Two Sticks..., and then we can have the understanding of what Yahshua said, "in three days He will rebuild His temple" (Matt 26:61...), the "City of Yah, which is New Jerusalem, and it won't be by man's hands that His Temple is built, nor in that land they call Israel today. The Temple for us today, and how to understand the scriptures about prophecy when referring to Jerusalem, Judah, Israel, the Two Sticks... is to know the promise is for a new heaven and a new earth (2Pet 3:13), whereafter "New Jerusalem" has been fully constructed (2Pet 3:13, a place where "Righteousness Truly Resides", New Jerusalem) from the heavenlies and comes down on the new earth (Rev 21).That land has been and is being greatly polluted by the blood of the prophets, saints, and many innocent lives, and is a place of idol worship, wickedness and sexual immorality... To define Judah, the two sticks, Israel, Jerusalem... is to know it's only Yah's elect and for no one else. The scriptures have been grossly perverted by this millennial reign doctrine, and it has its fingers in many other places of Yah's Word perverting the scriptures, and that's what we are told by Peter in 2Pet. 3, and many other places, because when you believe a lie, you will become blinded to Truth elsewhere (2Pet 3:15-16). Because of this false doctrine that completely opposes our King/Word, understanding what Galatians 1:6-10 we learn you are under a curse. It's time Yah's people repent of this false teaching and "Believe our Messiah and King"! So now you must make your choice! Will you believe the Word of Yah, through His only begotten Son, and given as a commandment to His Apostles in regard to the “Day of Judgment”? Or will you remain under a curse, and unable to understand other scriptures as well? Yahshua comes “like a thief”, and thieves take away! Just so it’s clear, I do not hate those who say they are Jews, but I do know who they really are, and they, as all do, need a Savior, the Word, Yahshua! Yahshua is the Way, Truth, and Life, and that is in the context of Judgment Day, when we will be judged and then caught up in the air, changed in a moment, the blink of an eye, to forever be with our Father, and His Son forever, as it is written! Mat 13:24 He presented them with another parable: “The kingdom of heaven (New Jerusalem, the Father’s House) is like a person who sowed good seed in his field. Mat 13:25 But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed darnel among the wheat and went away. Mat 13:26 When the plants sprouted and produced grain, then the darnel also appeared. Mat 13:27 So the slaves of the landowner came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the darnel come from?’ Mat 13:28 He said, ‘An enemy has done this!’ So the slaves replied, ‘Do you want us to go and gather it?’ Mat 13:29 But he said, ‘No, since in gathering the darnel you may uproot the wheat along with it. Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest (The gathering by the angels at Yahshua’s appearing). At harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First collect the darnel and tie it in bundles to be burned, but then gather the wheat into my barn. (First the Tares/Sinners are gathered to be burned, and then the Wheat, the elect, the Two Sticks, Israel, are to be gathered into the New Jerusalem, referenced as the “Barn”) SHALOM! Ron Evartt 1Th 4:16 For Yahshua himself will come down from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of YAH, and the dead in Yahshua will rise first. 1Th 4:17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be suddenly caught up together with them in the clouds to meet Yahshua in the air. And so we will always be with the Yahshua. 1Th 4:18 Therefore encourage one another with these words. (At His appearing He takes us to forever be with Him!)
  3. With the Messianic and Hebrew Roots movements, should we have our main focus on the Torah and Jewish traditions? What does the Word say? Why would a person leave the Christian church, with its traditions and false doctrines, just to be caught up in Jewish traditions and false doctrines? With most converts to Judaism coming from the Hebrew Roots and Messianic assemblies something is definitely wrong. There are many discovering the “Jewishness” of Jesus, and looking to Jewish traditions to follow, instead of “putting on the Lord Jesus Christ”, they’re “putting on their new found Jewishness”! What is our goal, the main emphasis? This study might sound harsh, but what are you seeking for? The Way, Truth, and Life! I didn’t “come to Torah” for Salvation, but to Jesus, which is Salvation! What warning did Jesus give first concerning the latter days? DON’T BE DECEIVED!!! Jesus is not the Torah; Jesus (the Word) gave the law to Moses and then expounded upon that law by demonstrating how we are to walk, “even as HE WALKED”! Our Goal is to imitate that which Jesus said and did, and it definitely wasn’t to become a Jew, but a new creation in Christ Jesus by His Spirit! This is not to bash those in these assemblies, because I was in them. It’s to not be deceived by moving the focus, JESUS, to the Torah. Not that the Torah is bad, because it’s not, but now with the New Testament, Jesus, being the “Testator”, and the One who had to die for us to receive the inheritance, we must learn from Him the ordinances of sacrifice, putting ourselves upon the alter in order to die to this flesh and be raised in newness of Life in Christ Jesus, OUR GOAL! Rom 8:29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that He might be the firstborn among many brothers. “Abide in the Doctrine of Christ”, or you “Hath Not God” 2Jn 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2Jn 1:10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 2Jn 1:11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. Is there a better Way to understand the Law than from the One who gave us that Law? 1Jn 5:9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God (JESUS) is greater, for this is the testimony of God that he has borne concerning his Son. 1Jn 5:10 Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son. 1Jn 5:11 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 1Jn 5:12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. The Hebrew Roots (Most), and the Messianic (Most) movements are following through a different “DOOR”! Are we to follow Jews, or our Lord Jesus? Joh 10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. Joh 10:8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. Joh 10:9 I am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. Joh 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. We’re to Seek the righteousness of Jesus, and enter by the Door Luk 13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Luk 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate (Door/Jesus): for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. Luk 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door (Jesus), and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Who is our Rabbi? Mat 23:8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for One is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. Who are we to follow? Mat 4:19 And he saith unto them, Follow me (Jesus), and I will make you fishers of men. Mar 8:34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me (Jesus). (Example of a Jewish tradition)The Shema, “a Jewish prayer & song”, a tradition of men! The Shema is not a prayer in the Word, but rather instructions of how to live throughout the day and every day! Are we called to walk as a Jew, or to walk as HE walked? The Shema was taken from three small sections and turned into a prayer/song, but scripture in its context is what is essential to growing and learning. This is addressed to what I believe are the Messianic and Hebrew Roots of today, who put Torah and Jewish traditions before our Messiah, leaving their First Love: Rev 2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; Rev 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: Rev 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. Rev 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love (JESUS/Doctrine of Christ). Rev 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. So why is it important to follow the Doctrines of Christ, the Spirit of the Word? Jesus fulfilled (fully preach) the law, being the “Perfect” example to us of how to truly keep it! He was the mystery of God that was hidden until He came. Who will we learn from, Jesus or the Torah? Without Jesus we are still under the curse of the law! So which is more important? Jesus will teach us the Torah by the way He walked! Rom 16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, Rom 16:26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: What are we told about the traditions of men? Check what you’re saying and doing, and see if it is a “commandment of God”, or a tradition of men! Did our God command us to look and act Jewish (with Cabalist hand signs (triangle) in your prayer of Aaron, the scroll parade, allegiance to a wicked nation and not the true Israel of God, and a flag bearing the star used by the occult since Babylon)? O Jerusalem Jerusalem, how I long to gather you… Realize Israel (Jerusalem/Temple of our God) is only a believer in the Messiah, who keeps His commandments, for there is neither Jew nor Greek, only those who are in Christ Jesus. Who is your Savior, the commandments or your Messiah? I know many will say He is the Word/Torah, and if this be true, “Follow Him”, what He said and taught through the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Your traditions will cause you to reject God (Jesus, the Living Word) Mat 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? Mar 7:9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mar 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. Commanded to listen and follow Jesus from the Torah! Deu 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet (The Messiah) from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put My words in His mouth; and He shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. Deu 18:19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which HE shall speak in My name, I will require it of him. (Require: properly to tread or frequent) Do you want the written word (Law) or the “manifest Word” (Spirit)? Col 2:6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Col 2:7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after “Christ”. Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of ALL principality and power: 1Jn 1:1 That which was from the beginning (Jesus), which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 1Jn 1:2 (For the life was manifested (Jesus), and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) 1Jn 1:3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 1Jn 1:4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. Who are we to “Tabernacle” with, the Law (Moses) & the Prophets (Elias)? I would suggest learning all we can about Jesus and His life, before trying to understand all the laws in the Torah. Jesus greatly expounded on those laws. Mat 17:3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Mat 17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses (The Law), and one for Elias (The Prophets). Mat 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. Mat 17:6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. Mat 17:7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. Mat 17:8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. (“Tabernacle” with JESUS ONLY!) Who do we put on, Torah or Jesus (the Perfect demonstrator of the Law)? Rom 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. 1Co 15:53 For this corruptible (us) must put on incorruption (Jesus), and this mortal must put on immortality (For Salvation/Jesus). 1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory (Put on the Lord Jesus Christ for Salvation). Col 3:9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; Col 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Col 3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. Col 3:12 Put on (Jesus Christ)therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Are you a Jew or a Gentile? Neither, if you are Christ’s, Israel’s your name! Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. SALVATION is by JESUS CHRIST alone, but the evidence of our Salvation (JESUS) is when we love Him we will keep His commandments, putting on the Lord Jesus Christ, as taught and walked by Him! Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Your “Roots” better be in “THE VINE”!!! Joh 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing. I use English (known) words, so it doesn’t confuse or scare away the reader! I believe however it’s a blessing to call on God (a title) in His Hebrew tongue in my prayers, or with like minded believers who understand.
