1 1 Constantine s Creation of Jesus Christ It has often been said that truth is stranger than fiction, and this has never been truer than as it relates to this weighty subject of the man-made creation of Jesus Christ. It appears that in A.D. 325, a new god was conceived within the black and white marble halls of Roman Catholicism. As you will soon discover, the name Jesus Christ was apparently amalgamated from a long list of pagan god hopefuls. While this name has been held as set-apart above all others for nearly 1,700 years, serving to unite the Roman Empire, yet, it s checkered past reveals its illegitimate beginnings. Who would have guessed that our Savior s name, THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES has been overwritten throughout the entire Brit Hadasha (NT) Scriptural text with a Roman fabricated counterfeit? Might this holocaust of truth be instigated from the pit of hell to thwart YAHUAH S obedient followers from their quest to worship Him their true ETERNAL FATHER AND SON? For Scripture declares a profound truth:

2 2 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under shamayim given among men by which we must be saved. P yilut Hashaliachim (Acts) 4:12 If the true name of our Redeemer, Lamb, Kohen (Priest), and King, is not Jesus Christ, then what is His name so it may be fully restored, and that we may worship Him in the Ruach (Yahuah s Presence) and in truth? Who is Jesus Christ? Shockingly, the Ten Commandments and the Creator s Calendar, with all its set-apart worship days were not the only things altered or ignored in Scripture. Ancient Hebrew Kohenim (priests) and scribes removed and replaced the true name of the Almighty Father, YAHUAH withיהוה terms attributed to Baal, such as Adonis, the Lord, and God. They claim this was done because the set-apart name was far too revered for mankind to utter. And if mankind never actually said the name YAHUAH, then they will never break the third command, by taking His name in vain. This is a poor excuse to never call upon the true name of the Eternal Father, especially when He asks us to, and even requires this of His righteous and obedient followers. This is no different than the man who says don t share the Good News with me, because after you do I will be under pressure to become a believer. For nearly 2,000 years the Jews have chosen to disobey the Torah by not calling upon the name of YAHUAH. This name cover-up was then enlarged upon years later in A.D. 325, when Constantine put his hands in the cookie jar and removed the most delectable morsel of all from the Brit Hadasha (NT) and replaced it with something of his very own creation. But why would he do this? How can this be? What is the evidence this has occurred? Jesus is supposed to be the Anglicized equivalent of the Greek Iesous, but really, if it is, it is troubling to say the least. The English name Jesus stems etymologically from Jupiter-Zeus the chief god of the ancient Greek Olympus the coded occult appellation evolving from J-Zeus... J-sus... Je-sus, to Jesus... Some authorities, who have spent their entire lives studying the origins of names, believe that Jesus actually means Hail Zeus! For Iesous in Greek is Hail Zeus. That is, Ie translates as Hail and sous or sus is Zeus. Dictionary of Christian Lore and Legend, J.C.J. Melford, 1983, p. 126.

3 3 Constantine s intention at Nicea was to create an entirely new god for his empire who would unite all religious factions under one deity. Presbyters were asked to debate and decide who their god would be. Delegates argued among themselves, expressing personal motives for inclusion of particular writings that promoted the finer traits of their own special deity. Throughout the meeting, howling factions were immersed in heated debates, and the names of 53 gods were tabled for discussion. As of yet, no god had been selected by the council, and so they balloted in order to determine that matter... For one year and five months the balloting lasted... God s Book of Eskra, Prof. S.L. MacGuire s translation, Salisbury, 1922, chapter xlviii, paragraphs 36, 41. [Roman Catholic mix of history and legend.] At the end of that time, Constantine returned to the gathering to discover that the presbyters had not agreed on a new deity, but had balloted down to a short list of five prospects: Caesar, Crishna [Krishna], Mithra, Horus, and Zeus [Roman Jupiter]. Historia Ecclesiastica, Eusebius, c Constantine was the ruling spirit at Nicaea and he ultimately decided upon a new god for them. To involve British factions, he ruled that the name of the Druid god, Hesus, be joined with the Eastern Savior-god, Krishna (Krishna is Sanskrit for Christ), and thus Hesus Krishna [Jesus Christ] would be the official name of the New Roman god. A vote was taken and it was with a majority show of hands (161 votes to 157) that both [man-made] divinities become one god. Following long-standing heathen custom, Constantine used the official gathering and the Roman apotheosis decree to legally deify two deities as one, and did so by democratic consent. A new god was proclaimed and officially ratified by Constantine. Acta Concilii Nicaeni, 1618.

4 4 In light of the historical record above it becomes difficult at best to deny that Jesus Christ is a fictional name, proactively fashioned to replace the true name of the Messiah. Apparently, this new fabricated name was applied throughout the pages of the יהושׁע Scripture s Brit Hadasha (NT), radically altering every reference of YAHUSHA (H#3091) the Messiah to Hail Zeus-Krishna (Jesus Christ). Deceptively, the reference to Christ was never a Greek equivalent of the Hebrew word Messiah, but rather, it specifically comes from the name of a pagan god, Christna, most commonly spelled Krishna. If your heart is sinking about now because you can t imagine such a thing could be true, then take this to the Eternal Father in prayer. He will give you assurance as He guides you to a deeper knowledge of truth. This is so important to Him that His name be restored, as it defines who His obedient followers are who are seeking Him with all their hearts in preparation for His Second Coming. The Birth of Christianity Shockingly, the birth of what is known today as CHRISTIANITY did not exist until Constantine united his empire under the name of his newly fabricated god Jesus Christ. Thus, Constantine presented the man-made god, Jesus Christ, to be worshiped the world over, and it was this fictitious name that was clandestinely applied to the very pages of Scripture replacing truth for error. Who said the Scriptures remain pure and undefiled? Should we not be wise to discern what else has been changed, manipulated, or removed? The discovery of this grand deception should cause all to study deeper into the mines of truth as for buried treasure that we may find lustrous gold pure, precious, and undefiled.

5 5 Simply, no one was a Christian prior to A.D All the churches that claim to be Christian today are merely daughters of the Roman stylized system of false worship of Hail Zeus-Christna, with their own sanctified spin and variation on doctrinal beliefs. Prior to that year all of the Messiah s obedient early believers referred to themselves as the Natsarim (Nazarenes), or were called the Quartodecimen (Fourteeners), my personal favorite, who kept Passover by counting to the 14th day from the full New Moon, as their very name reveals. This quote below clears up many of the differences between three separate religious groups from A.D. 31 to A.D These are the Jews, the Natsarim, and the Christians. Although, this translation of the Greek original utilized the incorrect name Jesus, it was in correlation with the correct term Messiah, instead of Christ. While a step in the right direction, the use of the name Jesus is still not correct according to what is revealed within the quote itself. This is because Jesus Christ is the inseparable name manufactured in Rome, while Yahusha the Messiah was the original name of the personage who laid down His life upon the cross/stake for the sins of mankind. Thus, His followers never conceived of calling themselves Christians. But these sectarians did not call themselves Christians but Nazarenes [Natsarim]... However they are simply complete Jews. They use not only the New Testament but the Old Testament as well, as the Jews do They have no different ideas, but confess everything exactly as the Law proclaims it and in the Jewish fashion except for their belief in Messiah, if you please! For they acknowledge both the resurrection of the dead and the divine creation of all things, and declare that God [Alahim] is one, and that His son is Jesus [Yahusha] the Messiah. They are trained to a nicety in Hebrew. For among them the entire Law (Torah), the Prophets (Nevi-im), and the Writings (Ketuvim) are read in Hebrew, as they surely are by the Jews. They are different from the Jews, and different from Christians, only in the following. They disagree with Jews because they have come to faith in Messiah; but since they are still fettered by the Law circumcision, the Sabbath, and the rest they are not in accord with Christians... they are nothing but Jews They have the Gospel according to Matthew in its entirety in Hebrew. For it is clear that they still preserve this, in the Hebrew alphabet, as it was originally written. Epiphanius; Panarion 29, A.D All Christianized (Hail Zeus-Christna) churches have accepted the names of pagan entities to receive their worship. Add to this that the rhythm of their worship is according

6 6 to the rhythm of the pagan planetary gods, marking the days of their calendar s continuous weekly cycle. Their pagan holidays have replaced all the Scriptures prophetic set-apart Feast Days and Sabbaths that identify YAHUSHA asיהושׁע the true Messiah of the promise. And last, but not least, all the set-apart days are beaconed by the Creator s preordained full New Moon for visual confirmation and synchronization. Among these religious organizations there seems to be an utter lack of interest in reform or a deep desire to learn the truth that they may harmonize their worship rhythms with that of their Creator, and honor His true names. This is not entirely unlike the Catholic Church in the days of Martin Luther. One by one, and for their own particular reasons, each Christianized church clings with tenacity to their beloved, yet, fabricated system of beliefs that are often more in harmony with Catholicism than with Scripture and the Most High Eternal Father and Son, whom they claim to worship. These discrepancies go unrecognized and unresolved as they are what is familiar, and what is repeated over and over from week to week from the pulpits where tithes and offerings are received in return for more propaganda. Time, repetition, and the club mentality keep good folks locked into whatever is popularly taught within their own organization, providing a sense of belonging, but a false security, nonetheless. The Christianized churches continue to utilize the fabricated terms to replace YAHUAH withיהוה the Lord, and perpetuate the contrived tradition of replacing YAHUSHA the Messiah, with Jesus Christ (Hail Zeus-Christna). As a result, both the,יהושׁע rhythm of worship and who is worshipped no longer resemble the worship required by the Creator, as it is defined in the Tanakh (OT). For they have bartered and traded in the markets of men the true for the false, in order to worship and serve a counterfeit god of their own creation. It was the prince of darkness who once claimed that he would be like the Most High to receive worship belonging only to Elohim, the Creator: For you have said in your heart, I will ascend into the shamayim, I will exalt my throne above the stars of Elohim; I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation [mo ed, prophetic appointed fixed time], in the sides of the north [path of the sun, moon, and stars]: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High. YeshaYAHU (Isaiah) 14:13-14

7 7 This is the point at which the heart that loves the truth should overrule the need to cling to long held traditions that have turned out to be false. If not, the following verse reveals another truth that may be hard to swallow as its implications are eternal. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for me. Because you have forgotten the law of your Elohim, I also will forget your children. HosheYAH (Hosea) 4:6 Another important point to consider is that the set-apart name of the Eternal YAHUAH were never spelled with a J, or,יהושׁע ( YHUH )יהוה and His Son, YAHUSHA pronounced as Jehovah, because there is no J or its phonetic equivalent in the Hebrew tongue. Rather, this was an invention as recently as 400 years ago. The 1611 KJV spells the Messiah s name as Isous, which you can see for yourself online. The Jehovah s Witnesses and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints would do well to change their names, as the use of these falsified names announce to the world the first of their many false teachings. WHEN A MAN OR WOMAN WHO IS HONESTLY MISTAKEN HEARS OR SEES THE TRUTH, THEY WILL EITHER QUIT BEING MISTAKEN OR CEASE TO BE HONEST. RICHARD HUMPAL Obedient and True Witness The Brit Chadasha (NT) bears witness to the greatest story ever told of the fulfillment of the ancient prophecies by the promised Messiah who was to come and lay down His life for all mankind, that in turn they may be restored only under the cloak of the Messiah s righteousness that they may stand in the presence of the Father. For unto us a child was born and unto us a SON was given, and government shall be upon His shoulders. YeshaYAHU (Isaiah) 9:6. We can have total confidence that YAHUSHA יהושׁע the Messiah was real, for the very reason that He came right on time according to the Passover Feast day on the astro-luni-

8 8 solar calendar indicator. He alone is the Alpha and Omega (Aleph and Tav ), the first and the last, the beginning and the end. He alone was the word, and the word became flesh and dwelt among us. Indeed, He has come in real time, day for a day, to fulfill the first half of the mo ed feast time prophecies. We can trust in verity that YAHUSHA, the Messiah is coming again, very soon, to fulfill in like manner the fall feasts, each on their set-apart appointed day. יהוה came in the name of His Father YAHUAH יהושׁע Our Messiah, YAHUSHA (YHUH), with a single letter s שׁ added to His name. Together, with the s שׁ the name YAHUAH becomes the word YAHUSHA, which literally means YAHUAH saves via the LAMB. His very name transmits LIGHT, TRUTH, and ETERNAL LIFE to all who call upon it. In contrast, the terms Jesus Christ, along with the Lord, and God, carry no meaning in Hebrew nor do they emit any inherent life giving qualities in any capacity. They are mere witty inventions of man, utterly dead and powerless unto salvation and life beyond the grave. Yet, in YAHUAH s great love and compassion, He continues to wink in times of ignorance (P yilut Hashaliachim (Acts) 17:30) and has in the past accepted our worship even when it is to the counterfeit deities. Perhaps you think this is preposterous and not the actual truth for the mere reason you were not taught this in Third Grade. Perhaps this makes you angry to discover you ve been lied to? You should be. You should be madder than hell! Might you be angry enough to study this out and ask YAHUAH, through the blood of YAHUSHA the Messiah, to forgive your lack of understanding? We have all been deceived and need to be led back into His truth by His Ruach. OUR BELIEFS, RIGHT OR WRONG. IF RIGHT, TO BE KEPT RIGHT; AND IF WRONG, TO BE SET RIGHT. If your organization or church teaches you to pray to Jesus Christ and the Lord God, and supports Christmas and/or Easter, all the while frowning on YAHUAH s sacred seventhday Sabbaths and/or set-apart Feast Days of Scripture, then you are in a false religious organization. Each of these are bent on keeping you dumbed down and lacking in the

9 9 knowledge of the truth unto salvation, and the power bestowed in the true sacred names, all the while accepting your trustworthy giving. Why Does it Matter What We Call the Father and Son? You may be thinking, why does it really matter, as He knows who I seek to worship? Do the Father and Son really care if I continue using the Roman manufactured names? 1. He has asked that we call Him by Name, His true name, not by a title or the name of a fictional god or super hero of antiquity. And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of YAHUAH. Bereshit (Genesis) 4:26... And there Abram called on the name of YAHUAH. Bereshit (Genesis) 13:4 And YAHUAH spoke unto Moses saying, "Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, 'This is the way the children of YAHshrael (Israel) shall say to them: YAHUAH barak (bless) you and keep you; YAHUAH make His face shine on you, and be compassionate to you; YAHUAH lift up His countenance upon you, and give you shalom (peace)." So they shall put MY NAME on the children of YAHshrael, and I will barak (bless) them." B midvar (Numbers) 6:22-27 Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name YAHUAH, and they shall be afraid of you. Devarim (Deuteronomy) 28:10 ELiYAHU (Elijah) declared: Then you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of YAHUAH and the Elohim (god) who answers by fire, He is Elohim (God)." So all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. Melechim Aleph (1 Kings) 18:24

10 10 Rave you in His qadosh name. Let them rejoice that seek YAHUAH. Davari HaYAmim Aleph (1 Chronicles) 16:10 Therefore My people shall know My name in that day, for I am the One who is speaking. See, it is I. YeshaYAHU (Isaiah) 52:6 Fill their faces with shame, that they may seek your name, O YAHUAH. Tehillim (Psalms) 83:16 Mosheh (Moses) and Aharon were among His Kohen (Priests), and Shemu EL (Samuel) was among those calling upon His Name. They called upon YAHUAH, and He answered them. Tehillim (Psalms 99:6 Give thanks to YAHUAH! Call upon His Name. Make known His deed among the peoples. Tehillim (Psalms 105:1 Then I called upon the Name of YAHUAH, O YAHUAH, I pray to You, deliver my life! Tehillim (Psalms) 116:4 I bring you a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and call upon the Name of YAHUAH. Tehillim (Psalms) 116:17 So a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear YAHUAH, and who meditate on His name. MalachiYAH (Malachi) 3:16 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of YAHUSHA the Messiah, giving thanks to YAHUAH the Father through Him. Colossians 3:17 2. We are not to take His name vainly or arbitrarily, but with purpose and honor. You shall not take the name of YAHUAH your Elohim in vain, for YAHUAH will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. Shemot (Exodus) 20:7 But David said to the Philistine, You come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the Name of YAHUAH of

11 11 hosts, the Elohim of the armies of YAHshraEL (Israel), whom you have reproached. Aleph ShemuEL (1 Samuel) 17:45 He that builds His exalted station in the shamayim (heavens), and has founded His firmament above the earth; He that calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out upon the face of the earth: YAHUAH is His Name. Amos 9:6 I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Hagilu Natan Elohim (Revelation) 3:8 YAHUSHA answered them, I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me. YAHchanan (John) 10:25 3. In praise, worship, and song we are to love and magnify YAHUAH and YAHUSHA s name. Save us, O YAHUAH our Elohim, and gather us from among the Gentiles, to give thanks to Your sacred name, to triumph in Your praise. Tehillim (Psalms) 106:47 Give unto YAHUAH the honor due to His name; worship YAHUAH in the beauty of sacredness. Tehillim (Psalms) 29:2 And in that day you shall say, Praise YAHUAH! Call upon His Name; make known His deeds among the peoples; make mention that His Name is exalted. YeshaYAHU (Isaiah) 12:4 Also the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to YAHUAH, to serve Him, and to love the name of YAHUAH, to be His servants everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and holds fast My covenant. YeshaYAHU (Isaiah) 56:6 I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. Tehillim (Psalms) 9:2

12 12... giving thanks always for all things to YAHUAH the Father in the name of our Messiah, YAHUSHA... Ephesians 5:20 4. We shall be called by His true name, and not the name Christians. So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will prosper them. Numbers 6:27 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. YAHchanan (John) 5:43 (Jesus Christ is the other name spoken of.) They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. Hagilu Natan Elohim (Revelation) 22:4 5. There is power unto Salvation only in the names of the Father YAHUAH and the Son, YAHUSHA. Save me, O YAHUAH, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your strength. Tehillim (Psalms) 54:1 And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of YAHUAH shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, as YAHUAH has said, among the remnant whom YAHUAH calls. YAH EL (Joel) 2:32 Referring to YAHUSHA the Messiah, There is no other name under the shamayim whereby we must be saved. P yilut Hashaliachim (Acts) 4:12 6. His Name is eternal and will be magnified and lifted up forever. I will make Your name to be remembered in all generations; Therefore the people shall praise You forever and ever. Tehillim (Psalms) 45:17 For all people walk each in the name of his god, but we will walk in the name of YAHUAH our Elohim, forever and ever. MiykaYAHU (Micah) 4:5

13 13 And I have declared unto them your Name, and will declare it that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them. YAHchanan (John) 17:26 YAHUSHA the Messiah is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Mashiach YAHUdim (Hebrews) 13:8 Therefore YAHUAH also has highly exalted Him [YAHUSHA the Messiah] and given Him the name which is above every name... Philippians 2:9 7. The qadosh (set-apart) Name shall be restored. For then I shall return unto the peoples a purified language, so that they all call on the Name of YAHUAH, to serve Him with one shoulder. TsphanYAHU (Zephaniah) 3:9 And I shall bring a third part into the fire, and I will refine them as silver is refined. And I will try them as gold is tried. They shall call on My Name, and I will hear them: I will say, These are my people. And they shall say, YAHUAH is my Elohim (God). TsphanYAHU (Zephaniah) 13:9 So I will make my qadosh Name known in the midst of my people YAHisraEL; and I will not let them pollute my qadosh Name any more. Then the nations shall know that I am YAHUAH. YAHchezq EL (Ezekiel) 39:7 Evidence for YAHUSHA יהושׁע Yod-Hay-Uau-Shin-Ayin By Arthur L. White (יהושׁע) This English script above is read left-to-right although in the Hebrew it is reversed. Notice that the first three vowel letters are exactly the same as the Father s name from right-to left Yahu. Next we have the letter shin which

14 14 is sh שׁ and finally the Ayin,ע which is essentially silent, but is represented by a rough breathing sound in the back of the throat. The Greco/Roman/English name Jesus would have been unknown to Yahusha. Jesus has no meaning in Hebrew, whereas Yahusha means Yah, He is salvation. The one who hung on the stake/tree for us was named Yahusha not someone named Jesus. Why is it that most believers readily accept the free gift of His finished work at the cross, but refuse to acknowledge Him by His Hebrew Name, which was given to Him by His Father, Yahuah? Clearly, we are to call on His Hebrew Name for salvation, but regretfully that has not been the case in the churches. If we take a closer look at the Hebrew name for Joshua,(יהושׁע) we find that it is the clearest example of how our Savior s name is spelled and pronounced. -ו Uau ה Hay -י Strong s #H3091 spells Joshua s name in Hebrew as Yod Shin Ayin -שׁ.ע This is exactly how we spell Yahusha s (יהושׁע) name as well. Here s something very enlightening: if we look up the name Jesus in Strong s Dictionary #G2424 it is sounded out as ee-ay-sooce, but refers us right back.(יהושׁע- H3091 #) to Joshua in Strong s For further proof, is found in Acts 7:45, where we find the name Joshua in our English Scriptures, but what s amazing is that it is the exact same number in Strong s #G2424, which is used for the name Jesus. Names are always transliterated from the source language to the target language by their sounds. Names have meanings, but it is not proper to translate them. In short, names are transliterated by the sound of each letter no matter what the alphabets used may be, just as our own name in English will always sound the same no matter what foreign alphabet it may encounter. What do we do with the alternative spellings such as Y shua, Yeshua or Yahshua? Some claim that Y shua or Yeshua is the shortened, Aramaic form for His Name. Others declare that Yeshua is a form of Yeshu, an unscriptural acronym for Yahusha s Name and stands for Yemak Shmo U Zikro, meaning

15 15 may his name be blotted out. So we can see why this would be a name that the enemy would like us to use because every time we speak Yeshua, we are in essence declaring that His Name be blotted out. The form Yah_shua leaves out the Uau,ו which is the vowel letter sound oo. 2 Timothy 2:15 tells us we are to rightly divide the word of truth, so what has been hidden or whispered in secret is now being shouted from the rooftops. We learn in Acts 9:15 that Paul was to bear Yahusha s Name before the nations. It is impossible for Paul to have declared the Greco/Roman/English name Jesus. Paul declared the Name of Yahusha; and as His body, so must we. Paul, before he was converted was sent to arrest and kill all those who called upon the true Name. Following his own conversion to the Truth of the Name, by Yahusha Himself, he used it boldly and was stoned several times for it. They would not have stoned him if he had used the name of error we have inherited. A paradigm shift is necessary, but in name only, for our Savior, YAHUSHA the Messiah, did walk this earth. Together with His Father, YAHUAH and YAHUSHA created all things, and 4000 years later the creative Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (YAHchanan 1:1). Indeed, He called the twelve and patiently instructed them in righteousness. His arms were outstretched to heal the sick and feed the 5,000 with five loaves and two fishes. He willingly laid down His life for all mankind, as a demonstration of His eternal love for His children. His Father s will He followed in joy and in pain. Defeating death, He rose again in power and exaltation, and His magnificent work on behalf of mankind continues today in His sanctified temple courts above. Soon, He will declare, IT IS FINISHED, ending forever His priestly work of forgiveness in response to the prayers of His followers, by laying down the smoking censer. He will return again the second time to complete the prophetic mechanism called the plan of salvation, worked out in real time according to His sacred timeline of the seven sacred appointed Feast Days, encompassing this past 2,000 years. Our salvation is assured as we can discern the truth from error by His Ruach (Spirit) revealing this to us no matter how long we have been entrenched in believing a lie, and no matter whether you are nine or ninety. It is only in finding truth that the heart that desires it above houses, land, or money, will humble themselves and seek YAHUAH s face for forgiveness. For there is no tradition on the face of this earth, no matter how deeply seated, that is worth losing our salvation over. No one said it would be easy either. For

16 16 every new truth we come to accept, by the very design of cause and effect, we must give up a previously held belief, and this can be downright painful at times. The Messiah says: I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My seat of power, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His seat of power. Hagilu Natan Elohim (Revelation) 3:18 No one who seeks an everlasting home beyond the pearly gates will be left untouched by the controversy over truth and error. All have been naked, yet all must be clothed with YAHUSHA s Righteousness. This is the formula from the beginning in Eden, when the first lamb ( sha -שׂה) was slain and the white blood stained woolen skins were placed by the Creator upon our first parents as the promise of the eternal robes of righteousness that will one day be rewarded to the forgiven and restored obedient followers (Genesis 3:21). All have sinned, but YAHUSHA our Messiah (lamb), has made provision for each person who humbly asks. The choice is yours. We are entering into the refining time as each of us releases our grip on all the things of this world that are not pure gold, tried, and proven to be of eternal weight. YAHUAH prosper you and guard you; YAHUAH make His face shine upon you, and show favor to you; YAHUAH lift up His face upon you, and give you assurance. Thus they shall put My Name on the children of Israel, And I Myself shall honor them.

17 17 Bemidvar (Numbers) 6:24-27 Each of us have the choice to be grafted in and receive His Name on our foreheads. Pray that this name will be YAHUSHA!יהושׁע For the plan of salvation is baked in to the correct spelling and pronunciation of YAHUSHA. Literally declaring to the whole world that the ETERNAL YAHUAH SAVED YOU AND ME BY WAY OF THE LAMB,( sha -שׂה) insuring His promises are trustworthy. Kerrie L. French Freelance Writer/Illustrator
