1 newsletter I Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; straitway.com

2 ONE wife Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! To an Israelite who knows what the law says, nothing is controversial. To those who hold onto culture dogma which has no biblical backing, the Bible is a sword that cuts deep, and it will discern and bring to the front the very heart of man. At first blush, people seem to have a love for the Bible, but it is only a surface love. Once you become a student (disciple) of the real Jesus Christ, you will realize the hate is real, the love is real, the rejection is real, the lies are very real, and the truth which reveals will always be an object of scorn and ridicule among the deceived, religious, Christian-fairytale-believing masses. Jesus said in Matthew 22:29, Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of Yah. There is a difference between Traditional Marriage, and Biblical Marriage. Traditional marriage is what the secular world participates in, and Biblical Marriage is what Israelites do. The truth is, Jesus is just a mirage. And the figure we revere is a profoundly syncretistic construct. The image of this homosexual blond, blue-eyed American construct goes far deeper than mere appearance. Americans think of a Jesus that loves only them above all nations of the earth. Americans believe this Jesus they have created just supports our own national interests, turns a blind eye to our shameful history of race-relations, and promises individual salvation without holistic allegiance to the real Hebrew Israelites family. We aren t really talking about the feet-burned-in-brass, copper olive-skinned Messiah named Yahshua, we are talking about Borgia! If it is tough for a people to acknowledge the simple truths of the scriptures and denounce fairytales and lies, how can you expect a man that was born blind to see without a miracle? 1983 The Year of the Bible America, a country full of religious and political hypocrisy, states according to public law , the Bible is the Word of God. But the politicians and the Supreme Court so-called justices have told the Elohim of the Hebrews to go to hell! America cares nothing for YHWH nor his people nor the Most High s laws. PUBLIC LAW OCT. 4, STAT th Congress Authorizing and requesting the President to proclaim 1983 as The "Year of the Bible" Whereas the Bible, the Word of God, has made a unique contribution in shaping the United States as a distinctive and blessed nation and people; Whereas deeply held religious convictions springing from the Holy Scriptures led to the early settlement of our Nation; Whereas Biblical teachings inspired concepts of civil government that are contained in our Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States; Whereas many of our great national leaders-among them Presidents Washington, Jackson, Lincoln, and Wilson-paid tribute to the surpassing influence of the Bible in our country's development, as in the words of President Jackson that the Bible is "the rock on which our Republic rests"; Whereas the history of our Nation clearly illustrates the value of voluntarily applying the teachings of the Scriptures in the lives of individuals, families, and societies; Whereas this Nation now faces great challenges that will test this Nation as it has never been tested before; and Whereas that renewing our knowledge of and faith in God through Holy Scripture can strengthen us as a nation and a people: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the President is authorized and requested to designate 1983 as a national "Year of the Bible" in recognition of both the formative influence the Bible has been for our Nation, and our national need to study and apply the teachings of the Holy Scriptures. Approved October 4,

3 American culture, which is nothing more than an ancient Roman model, sees through the lenses of a Western mindset. It perceives through a Western mind. The mind of the West also is a culture whose beliefs is rooted in a monogamy only model, while it supports having a wife and a boyfriend. Western society is the hypocritical moral tyranny of forced monogamy by government, community, and religion. I say false because the Church interprets Romans 13 as being obedient to the state of America which supports and defends the right of the homosexuals. America is a system which is supportive of serial-polygamy. And it is impossible for a people who are blinded by the lies of Christmas, Easter, and Sunday. to acknowledge this truth. I realize that writing this article will reveal the hatred that people have in their hearts towards the Most High and his laws. Theologians who attempt to deny the appropriateness of polygyny had to compose their opinions by quoting biblical verses out-of-context, a method that they believed permitted virtually anything to be approved. Americans prefer to see families broken apart and destroyed, jailed and put to death as whoremongers and adulterers get off scot-free along with the sodomites! Before breaking down I Timothy 3:2, let s go into the scriptures and see what they say about the ancient Israelites. The father of the faith and the friend of Yah, Abraham, not only had three wives but also concubines. The Most High spoke to Abraham many times and not once did He ever condemn him for having more than one wife and many concubines. Nothing but facts here! Genesis 25:6 But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac, his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country. Judges 8:30 And Gideon had threescore and ten sons of his body begotten: for he had many wives. King David, a man after Yah s own heart, said this: II Samuel 12:8 And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things. Jehoiada, the priest, did that which was right in the sight of YHWH all the days of his life. II Chronicles 24:2,3 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of YHWH all the days of Jehoiada the priest. And Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he begat sons and daughters. Yah Himself portrays Himself as being married to two sisters, Jerusalem and Samaria. He also says in Jeremiah I was a husband unto them. Ezekiel 23:2-4 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother: And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity. And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah. The Husband of One Wife Would it not be wrong to prohibit what the rest of scripture so clearly allows and blesses, regulates and has a law for its conduct? My dear friend Professor Dr. William Luck writes, At first blush, this would seem to be a prohibition against polygyny so stark that only the intellectually maimed and blind could miss the point! That is just because several critical contextual elements have been forgotten We must remember that the phrase comes in a QUALIFICATIONS LIST. Such a list is not the place to expect to find new moral teaching per se. Lists are summaries of previous teachings. Thus if we cannot find a prohibition of polygyny up to this point in the teachings of the inspired text, we are in trouble (hermeneutically speaking) finding it here. Personally I have seen, noticed and experienced that people do not know what the Bible says, do not investigate matters. People usually just go along with the traditional interpretation of husband of one wife as if it had been translated correctly

4

5 mia gune aner There are three Greek words that the apostle Saul (Paul) used when saying husband of one wife. They are mia gune aner (in that order). Mia is the word which is translated as one, gune as wife, and aner as husband. NOT FOUND: only & but one In the original text the words only and but one are not found in any relation to these three words. If the real disciple would study, it would not be hard to understand especially those who have the Holy Spirit and the power of Yah operating in their lives. Those words have been added to many Eurocentric Anglo English translations that we have today. Why have these words been inserted for what reason? Certain words are inserted into the English translation to convey a meaning that the translators merely believed was intended. What was that purpose? That bishops and deacons must be monogamous. I say again these words are not found in the original text. Next, we have to do some digging. We all know that the Babylonian Greco-Roman words can have more than one meaning or interpretation in a language. It s not so with original paleo-hebrew which is a concrete language superior to all other languages. According to Bauer s Greek Lexicon, the word gune can only mean an adult female or wife. The word aner can only mean an adult male, a generic person husband. So it's obvious the text calls to be interpretted as husband. Now the word mia is where people fall off the apple cart. I do have to note that the word mia comes before feminine nouns in Greek. So if you're reading this, you should appreciate my studying this out. There is another word in Greek which means the same exact thing and that word is heis. It is to be noted that heis comes before masculine nouns. One translation of the word mia is one. Like the number one, two, three. Another translation is the word first. Like first, second, third. A third translation is the words a certain, and a fourth is the singular indefinite article which comes from Thayer s Greek-English Lexicon. I suggest everyone look up what the original Aramaic says. After all, this is the language Christ spoke, and it is the sister language to ancient Hebrew, not his modern-day Germanic, Yiddish language made up by the false people who have occupied our land. Let s look at a few verses where the word mia has to be translated as first. Matthew 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first (mia) day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Titus 3:10 A man that is an heretick after the first (mia) and second admonition reject; There is another Greek word that is used far more frequently for first. That is the word protos. The above passages for the word mia mean the exact same thing as protos does in other places. Because Greek is a Babylon language of confusion, it's not like ancient paleo Hebrew which has an actual concrete meaning for a word. Matthew 8:19 And a certain (heis) scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. Luke 5:12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain (mia) city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, YHWH, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. indefinite article - a / an Another translation for mia, is a or an, the indefinite article. The indefinite article is a determiner that introduces a noun phrase and implies that the thing referred to is nonspecific as in: He bought me a book. Government is an art. He went to a public school. Typically, the indefinite article is used to introduce new concepts into a discourse. Matthew 21:19 And when he saw a (mia) fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away. Revelation 19:17 And I saw an (heis) angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great Elohim; - 4 -

6 BAUER GREEK LEXICON mia (feminine of heis) one gune adult female wife aner adult male generic person husband There is not one law written in the entirety of scripture that condemns this set-apart Eastern culture lifestyle. But these Europeans have done their damnedest to twist, warp and destroy, and whitewash the whole of the Bible in favor of their pagan monogamous culture to which they cannot live true themselves. 1 Timothy 3:2 1 Timothy 3:12 Titus 1:6 one wife husband This English pagan society with all of its legalized serial polygamy of constant divorce and remarriage should never try to tell us Hebrews what the Bible says, and how our people lived, especially since their own translation actually condemns sodomy, whoremongers, and adulterers, which all seem to go scot-free in this society! Matthew 28:1 Titus 3:10 Matthew 21:19 the first the first a These gentiles will continue to argue until the second coming of Christ on this subject. I'm convinced that since they cannot see the truth of the Sabbath Day nor the falsehoods of pagan Christmas and Easter, there is no way they can ever be in any position to understand the Word of Yah in any area. After all, they teach the law is done away with! Some people have to be the workers of iniquity, and I honestly believe it s the Christians. Just watch their fruit. It will tell you everything you need to know about that false religion! Revelation 19:17 Luke 5:12 Matthew 8:19 conclusion an (heis) a certain a certain (heis) All of this study on I Timothy 3:2, 12 and Titus 1:6 could make a wise man go mad.but I am now convinced that, according to the indefinite article, the proper translation for mia is a or the first. It should not be one, as in husband of one wife. It should be read as: husband of a wife or husband of the first wife To translate in any other way would suggest that Abraham the father of the faith and the friend of Yah, Moses the custodian of the law, David, a man after Yah s own heart and Gideon the great warrior, would be considered too sexually immoral to be even a deacon! And that would be absurd! There is more to the rejecting of biblical marriage than meets the eye. It s an end-time spirit that Paul spoke to Timothy about. Paul told Timothy forbidding to marry is a doctrine of devils : I Timothy 4:1-3 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. Anyone forbidding to marry after the instructions of the Bible, is influenced and deceived by seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils! Shalom Charles Dowell, Jr. Pastor of Straitway - 5 -
