NEWSLETTER September 2016 Feast Invitation Isayah 56:1-8 1 This is what Yahweh says: Keep the Judgments, and do justly; for My Salvation is near, soon, to come, and My Righteousness to be revealed. 2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; who keeps the Sabbaths without polluting; defiling, them; and keeps his hand from doing any evil. 3 Do not let the son of the Gentile, who has joined himself to Yahweh, speak, saying; Yahweh has utterly separated me from His People. Nor let the eunuch say; Behold, I am a dry tree. 4 For this is what Yahweh says: To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, and choose those things which please Me, and hold fast to My Covenant: 5 I will give to them, in My House, even within My Walls, a place; ministering position with power, and a Name equal to that of sons and of daughters; I will give them the Name of the Everlasting: YAHWEH; which will not be cut off. 6 Also the sons of the Gentile who join themselves to Yahweh, to serve Him, and to love the Name of Yahweh, to be His Servants everyone who keeps the Sabbaths without polluting; defiling, them and who holds fast to My Covenant 7 I will bring them to My Holy Mountain (promotion of Righteousness and Salvation), and make them joyful in My House of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted upon My Altar; for My House will be called a House of Prayer for all people. 8 Yahweh the Father Who gathers the outcasts of Israyl says: I will gather still others to Me, besides those who are gathered to Me. Verse 2 - blessed is the person who keeps the Sabbaths. Could you use a blessing or two, or maybe millions? I know you are cursed with sickness and disease, and trying to live with the doctor s help for just a little while longer. But there is hope and in the most unheard of place. Due to the many lies taught every Sunday by the religions, people now think that the Fourth Commandment and the Feasts are no longer a requirement for Righteousness and Salvation. 4,200 religions teach that their Savior, whose words they claim to trust and obey, as their favorite song goes - Trust and obey, for there s no other way, did away with those old Laws, as they call them. Those old Laws, they got that from the Vatican and don t even know it. Now think about this. If they are speaking of the Savior found in the Inspired Writings of Yahweh s Prophets and Apostles, they are lying to you. In fact, they are teaching you to go to hell! The Teachings of the Savior, found in the Holy Scriptures, say: Revelation 22: And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be. 13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. 14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

2 Compare with: Isayah 56:2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; who keeps the Sabbaths without polluting; defiling, them; and keeps his hand from doing any evil. Wow! Did you get that? Isayah 56:2 says blessed is the man who keeps Yahweh s Sabbaths. Then in Revelation 22:14, it says blessed are those who keep Yahweh s Commandments. Isayah 58: If you turn away your foot from breaking the Sabbath: from doing your pleasure; your own business, your own pleasure, on My Holy Day, and call the Sabbath a delight; the Holy Day of Yahweh honorable, and will honor Him by not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor engaging in idle conversation: 14 Then you will find your joy in Yahweh; and I will cause you to ride on the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Yaaqob your father for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken it. I hope you read that in your own bible. Know that it s opposite from what the serpent s teachers preach on Sunday while holding up the bible that condemns them, and you if you let them deceive you. To that, concerning this present generation, Yahshua Messiah said: Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her. Mattithyah 24:1-5 1 Yahshua went out and was leaving the temple, when His Disciples came to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 But Yahshua said to them: Do you see all these things? Truly I say to you: There will not be one stone left sitting on top of another, which will not be thrown down. 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the Disciples came to Him privately, saying; Tell us, when will these things be? What will be the sign of Your coming and The End of the Ages? 4 Yahshua answered, and said to them: Be on guard, so that no man deceives you; 5 For many will come against My Name, saying: I am anointed to preach salvation! and will deceive many. Yahshua shows these lying religions can only bring forth evil. They cannot bring forth Righteousness. Mattithyah 7: Therefore, all things you want men to do to you, do the same to them, for this is the Teaching of the Laws and the Prophets. 13 Enter in through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who go that way. 14 Because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way which leads to life, and few there are who find it. 15 Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity. 18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness. 19 Every tree which does not bring forth Righteous fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire. 20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them. 21 Not everyone who says to Me; Teacher! Teacher! will enter into the Kingdom of Yahweh, but only he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day; Teacher! Teacher! Have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and in Your Name performed many wonderful works? 23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity. Notice the last word in verse 17 - iniquity. Yahshua Messiah shows this generation is filled with 4,200 2 religions being led by the Roman Catholics Church s doctrines of iniquity. Iniquity means doing away with Yahweh s Laws of Righteousness; that is, teaching that Yahweh s Laws have been done away. That teaching is contrary to the Words of the Savior. Mattithyah 19:17 But He said to him: Why do you question Me about Righteousness? There is only One Who is the Standard of Perfection, and He is Yahweh; so if you would enter into Life, keep the Laws of Yahweh. Mattithyah 5:17 Do not even think that I have come to destroy the Laws or the Prophets; I have not come to destroy them, but to establish them. Revelation 22:14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City. Mattithyah 6:33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Now take a closer look at what Yahshua Messiah is showing you concerning those 4,200 religions. Mattithyah 7:13 shows they are leading you to destruction. Yahshua is speaking of nuclear destruction, which was also shown by Yahweh s Prophets. They also show the cause. Isayah 24:1-6 1 Before Yahweh s very Eyes, the earth is made empty and it is made waste; the face of it is perverted and its inhabitants scattered abroad; 2 And it will be: as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his owner; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with him who takes usury, so with him who gives usury to him: 3 The land will be utterly emptied and utterly plundered, for it has come to pass that this Judgment has been pronounced. 4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world mourns and fades away, and the haughty people of the earth languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the

3 inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant. 6 Because of this, the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell therein are desolate; therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. This is the same generation of Prophecy spoken of by Yahshua. A Prophesied Generation Mattithyah 24:21-22, 29, For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time no, nor ever will be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect s sake, those days will be shortened. 29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door. 34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled. Yahshua is speaking of the generation of the bombs of mass destruction, which started in Remember: Mattithyah 7:13 Enter in through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who go that way. 4,200 religions are going in the way of destruction in this prophesied generation. Yahshua Messiah shows that in this generation 4,200 religions will lead the world into an evil atmosphere like in the days of Noah. Mattithyah 24: But just as the days of Noah were, so will also be the coming of the Son of Man; 38 For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying while giving in marriage, until the day that Noah went into the ark, 39 And did not know until the flood came and swept them all away. So also will be the coming of the Son of Man. The evil in the days of Noah. Genesis 6:12-13, 8 12 So Yahweh looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all mankind had corrupted their way on the earth. 13 And Yahweh said to Noah: The end of all mankind has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and they; mankind, have corrupted themselves with the earth. 8 But Noah found regard and honor in the eyes of Yahweh. The one and only Savior is speaking in Mattithyah 24, showing 4,200 religions are evil like in the days of Noah. The same person, in Mattithyah 7, says, I will say to those 4,200 religions and followers Get away from Me. Read this for yourself in your own bible. Mattithyah 7:23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity. See again: Mattithyah 7: Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep s clothing, but inwardly they are rav ening wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity. 18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness. 19 Every tree which does not bring forth Righteous fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire. 20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them. There are 4,200 religions that fit 3

4 this description in this generation. In verses Yahshua Messiah shows these 4,200 religions cannot teach Yahweh s Righteousness. Why? They cannot receive His Blessings. Why? Yahshua Messiah shows why they cannot teach Yahweh s Righteousness and Yahshua s twelve Disciples show why also. These religions follow the Vatican (divining serpent) - the Roman Catholic Church - which has, for thousands of years, brought persecution against any and all religions that teach any form of Righteousness. The Vatican/Roman Catholic Church belong to Satan, that old serpent, who is followed by all religions, except one, in this generation. Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her. Yahchanan 8:44 You are of your teacher who is Satan the devil, and whatever she who is your teacher desires, you will do. She was a murderer from the beginning, and remained not in the Truth, because there is no Truth in her. Therefore, when you speak your falsehoods, you speak her words, because she is a liar, and the teacher of all lies! Notice the word Righteousness in: Mattithyah 7:18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness. It is impossible for these religions to break their commitment to the Vatican. Vatican means divining serpent. Revelation 17:18 And the woman whom you saw, is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth. Kings? Kings means foundation of authority or religious leader. Righteousness, Sin and Iniquity Righteousness Only Brings Life Eternal Righteousness: Romans 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to Righteousness? Deuteronomy 6:25 And it will be our Righteousness if we observe to do all of these Laws before Yahweh our Father, as He has commanded us. Mattithyah 19: And behold, one came to Him, and said; Teacher, what Righteous thing may I do, so that I may have Eternal Life? 17 But He said to him: Why do you question Me about Righteousness? There is only One Who is the Standard of Perfection, and He is Yahweh; so if you would enter into Life, keep the Laws of Yahweh. Revelation 22: And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be. 13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. 14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City. Sin? Righteousness? I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10 4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws. 7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous. 8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil. 10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yah weh, and he does not love his neighbor! Notice to whom the 4,200 religions 4 belong. I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10 4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws. 7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous. 8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil. 10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor! Back to the Holy Sabbath Day: the Holy Seventh Day Sabbath is a weekly Appointment with Yahweh at His House. Notice: Mattithyah 6:33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Deuteronomy 12:5 But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name and there you must go. Yahweh s House is where Yahweh s Blessings are taught including Eternal Life, which comes only from Yahweh. It all starts with keeping the set Appointments with Yahweh at His House, the prophesied place where Yahweh chose to place His Name. Isayah 56:1-7 1 This is what Yahweh says: Keep the Judgments, and do justly; for My Salvation is near, soon, to come, and My Righteousness to be revealed. 2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; who keeps the Sabbaths without polluting; defiling, them; and keeps his hand from doing any evil. 3 Do not let the son of the Gentile, who has joined himself to Yahweh, speak, saying; Yahweh has utterly separated me from His People. Nor let the eunuch say;

5 Behold, I am a dry tree. 4 For this is what Yahweh says: To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, and choose those things which please Me, and hold fast to My Covenant: 5 I will give to them, in My House, even within My Walls, a place; ministering position with power, and a Name equal to that of sons and of daughters; I will give them the Name of the Everlasting: YAHWEH; which will not be cut off. 6 Also the sons of the Gentile who join them selves to Yahweh, to serve Him, and to love the Name of Yahweh, to be His Servants everyone who keeps the Sabbaths without polluting; defiling, them and who holds fast to My Covenant 7 I will bring them to My Holy Mountain, and make them joyful in My House of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted upon My Altar; for My House will be called a House of Prayer for all people. The Seventh Day Sabbath is not Sunday. Exodus 20: Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 But the Seventh Day is the Sabbath of Yahweh your Heavenly Father. Therefore, in it you shall do only the Work of Yahweh: you, and your wife, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and your cattle, and the stranger who dwells within your gates. 11 For in six days Yahweh made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that are in them; and ceased from this work on the Seventh Day. Therefore, Yahweh blessed the Sabbath Day, and did Righteous works on it. Webster s Complete Unabridged Dictionary, Second Edition, 1979, Simon and Schuster, New York, NY, tells us that Saturday is the seventh day. Sat ur.dāy n. [AS. Sæterdæg, or Sæternes-dæg, Sætern, from L. Saturnus, Saturn.] the seventh or last day of the week; the day of the Jewish Sabbath. Yes, the Vatican (diving serpent), the Roman Catholic Church that sits on seven hills changed the Sabbath from the Seventh Day to the first day of the week. Revelation 17:7, 9 7 And the malak said to me: Why are you astonished? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns. 9 And here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. Does Rome sit on seven hills? The Basic Everyday Encyclopedia, page 451, gives us the following information concerning these seven mountains (hills). Rome...Traditionally founded 753 BC... built on 7 hills... The Last Two Million Years, by The Reader s Digest Association, Inc., 1981, page 110, confirms the fact that Rome is situated on seven hills, but notice what else this source says about this city. Rome was founded on seven small hills by the banks of the River Tiber. Compton s Pictured Encyclopedia, 1948, Volume 12, page 144, tells us about the city of seven hills....the City of Seven Hills....the Capitoline, Palatine, Aventine, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, and Caelian hills....the seat of the papacy, the head of the great Roman Catholic Church. This woman brings forth abominations such as sodomy, fornication, adultery, homosexuality and bestiality. Notice this: Revelation 17:1-5, 18 1 And there came one of the seven malakim who had the seven bowls, and talked with me, saying to me: Come, I will show you the sentence of the great whore that sits upon many waters, 2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication; practiced 5 idolatry: Godworship (the worship of elohim), and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. 3 So he carried me away in the Spirit into the midst of Godworshipers (worshipers of Elohim); and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication. 5 And upon her head was a name written: Mystery Babylon the great, the mother of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth. 18 And the woman whom you saw, is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth. The woman who brings forth these abominations undoubtedly belongs to the one after which she is named. I Yahchanan 3:7-8 7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous. 8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil. The word Vatican literally means Divining Serpent, and is derived from Vatis = Diviner and Can = Serpent. Vatican City and St. Peter s Basilica were built on the ancient pagan site called in Latin vaticanus mons or vaticanus colli, which means hill or mountain of prophecy. --Google search under Vatican meaning. That woman changed the weekly Sabbath from the Seventh Day to the first day, Sunday, in honor of the sun God Baal-Lord. Daniyl 7:25 And he will speak great words against Yahweh, and will wear out; mentally attack to cause to fall away, the Saints of Yahweh, and think to change times;

Summerbell, History of the Christian Church (1873), pg Does the Papacy acknowledge changing the Sabbath? It does. NOTE The Catechismus Romanus was commanded by the Council of Trent and published by the Vatican Press by order of Pope Pius V, in This catechism for priests says: It pleased the church of God, that the religious celebration of the Sabbath day should be transferred to the Lord s day.

How prove you that the Church hath power to command feasts and holy days? Ans. By the very act of changing the Sabbath into Sunday, which Protestants allow of; and therefore they fondly contradict themselves, by keeping Sunday strictly, and breaking most other feasts commanded by the same Church.

Have you any other way of proving that the Church has power to institute festivals of precept? Ans. Had she not such power, she could not have done that in which all modern religionists agree with her; she could not have substituted the observance of Sunday the first day of the week, for the observance of Saturday the seventh day, a change for which there is no Scriptural authority.

Gibbons Gibbons autographed letter. Ques. Which is the Sabbath day? Ans. Saturday is the Sabbath day. Ques. Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday? Ans.

Geiermann received the apostolic blessing of Pope Pius X on his labors, January 25, Who first enjoined Sunday keeping by law? Constantine the Great. Note. (1) That the Sunday was in the beginning not looked on as a day of bodily repose; nor was an analogy drawn between the Jewish 7 Sabbath and the Christian Sunday, except as days of worship (3) The keeping of the Sunday rest arose from the custom of the people and the constitution of the Church. (5) Tertullian was probably the first to refer to a cessation of worldly affairs on the Sunday; the Council of Laodicea issued the first conciliar legislation for that day; Constantine issued the first civil legislation; St. Martin of Braga was probably the first to use the term servile work in its present theological sense. Vincent J. Kelly, Forbidden Sunday and Feast-Day Occupations, p The earliest recognition of the observance of Sunday as a legal duty is a constitution of Constantine in 321 a.d., enacting that all courts of justice, inhabitants of towns, and workshops were to be at rest on Sunday (venerabili die solis), with an exception in favor of those engaged in agricultural labor. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th ed., art. Sunday. (See pages ) On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed. In the country, however, persons engaged in agriculture may freely and lawfully continue their pursuits; because it often happens that another day is not so suitable for grain-sowing or for vine planting; lest by neglecting the proper moment for such operations the bounty of heaven should be lost. (Given the 7th day of March, Crispus and Constantine being consuls each of them for the second time.) Codex Justinianus, lib. 3, tit. 12, 3: translated in History of the Christian Church, by Philip Schaff (Scribners, 1902 ed.), Vol. 3, p This edict, issued by Constantine, who first opened the way for

8 the union of church and state in the Roman Empire, in a manner supplied the lack of a divine command for Sunday observance. It was one of the important steps in bringing about and establishing the change of the Sabbath. The Vatican (divining serpent) - Roman Catholic Church - under Pope Constantine changed the Sabbath Day to Sunday. He passed laws making it a death penalty to all who kept the Seventh Day Sabbath instead of Sunday in honor of one of his many Gods. All 4,200 religions know this history but they re afraid to say anything in defense of the Holy Scriptures because of persecution, even in the United States. Following the Roman Catholic Church in its evil will not bring Life; it will bring death in this generation. None of these religions worship the Creator, Yahweh. They and all of their followers worship the dragon. They are all cut off from Yahweh and His Protection in this generation of very soon nuclear wars. Notice: Revelation 13:1-8 1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy. 2 And the beast which I saw was similar to a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion; and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads, as it were, wounded to death. And his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered; followed, after the beast. 4 And they worshiped the dragon which gave power to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying: Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him? 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to make war for forty-two moons; months. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Yahweh, to blaspheme His Name, and His House, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the Saints, and to overcome them. And authority was given him over all tribes, and peoples and languages, and nations. 8 And all who dwell upon the earth will worship him whose names have not been written from the foundation of the world, in The Book of Life of the Lamb Who was slain. Verse 8 tells us that everyone, except those written in the Lamb s Book of Life, will worship the dragon and the beast. Lamb s Book of Life? See: Revelation 22: And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be. 13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. 14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City. Did you get that? Only those who keep Yahweh s Laws, including Yahweh s Seventh Day Sabbath have authority from the Lamb to receive Eternal Life. Verse 14 says blessed are those who keep (practice) Yahweh s Laws. The Savior Said For Salvation s sake, Yahshua said: Mattithyah 6:33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Deuteronomy 12:5 But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name and there you must go. The Roman Catholic Church the Prophecy written in: 8 Mattithyah 24:1-4 1 Yahshua went out and was leaving the temple, when His Disciples came to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 But Yahshua said to them: Do you see all these things? Truly I say to you: There will not be one stone left sitting on top of another, which will not be thrown down. 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the Disciples came to Him privately, saying; Tell us, when will these things be? What will be the sign of Your coming and The End of the Ages? 4 Yahshua answered, and said to them: Be on guard, so that no man deceives you; The Roman Catholic Church called themselves Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians before they made their move to Rome in 70 A.Y. By order of the Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Herodians, General Titus destroyed Yerusalem, removed every stone of The House of Yahweh, and took all the wealth of Yerusalem and The House of Yahweh, as well as the artifacts, to the seven hills of Rome. The History of the Move to Rome The Fall of Jerusalem In 70 A.D. (AY) And [Yahshua] went out, and departed from the Temple: and His disciples came to Him for to shew Him the buildings of the Temple. And [Yahshua] said unto them, See ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. (Matthew 24:1-2 ) About 40 years later, (32AD [AY]- 70AD [AY]) and exactly as prophesied by [Yahshua Messiah], the magnificent...temple was completely destroyed, leaving not one stone upon another. It was an event that marked the beginning of the long and arduous Jewish Diaspora. Yet, it was definitely an event foreseen in Bible prophecy. [Yahshua] not only prophesied about the destruction

9 of Jerusalem and its Holy Temple, but added the following statement: (Luke 21:24; and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.) In 70 A.D. (AY), after a 143-day siege which BEGAN AT PASSOVER, a Roman military force consisting of about 30,000 troops under the command of Titus battered the walls and entered the city. They destroyed everything, including [the] Temple, exactly as spoken by [Yahshua Messiah] 40 years earlier. The population and the GREAT NUMBER OF PASSOVER VISITORS who had been trapped there were brutally slaughtered, with an estimated 600,000 to 1,000,000 people killed. Roman General Titus took the precious booty and treasury of the Jerusalem Temple back to Rome, where many suspect it remains to this day. (arch of Titus) By 70 A.D. (AY), Jerusalem and Judea were left desolate, most of the people either killed or being held in captivity, or had become refugees fleeing to remote lands. All that remained in Israel was the defiant little garrison atop the mount at Masada, a fortress complex south of the Dead Sea, which was built by Herod the Great. Thus when the Temple was destroyed in A.D. (AY) 70 the period of the second exile began. focusonjerusalem.com What is the Arch of Titus? The Victory Arch of Titus commemorates Titus victorious conquest of Judaea, leading the sacking of Jerusalem and ending the Jewish wars. The arch was constructed after Titus s death in 81 c.e. (AY) after his becoming a god. Where is the Arch of Titus? The Arch of Titus is located on the highest point of the Via Sacra, a road leading to the Roman Forum. This is a single arch, 15.4m high, 13.5m wide, and 4.75m deep. The marble reliefs stand nearly 2.5m in height. On the Arch of Titus is a relief depicting the Romans triumphal procession, returning with spoils from the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. Especially prominent is the sacred Menorah, but we can also see the Table of the Shewbread, and the silver trumpets which called Jews to Rosh Hashanah. about.com Daniyl 11:31 And the army will stand on his part, and they will pollute the Sanctuary of Strength, and will take away the daily, and they (the Roman army) will place the Lord of heaven. Daniyl 7: And he will speak great words against Yahweh, and will wear out; mentally attack to cause to fall away, the Saints of Yahweh, and think to change times; Yahweh s Feast Days, and Laws; and they will be given into his hand until a time, and times, and the dividing of time. 26 But the Judgment will sit, and they will take away his government, to consume and to destroy it completely. 27 Then the kingdoms and governments, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the Saints of Yahweh, Whose Kingdom is an Everlasting Kingdom, and all governments will serve and obey Him. But! But! But! Yahweh s Work is not finished. In fact, He is in total control and shows the prophesied end of Satan s rule and her divining serpent s authority over the earth. Notice how Yahweh s Prophet Micahyah foretold the great move to Rome by the twelve tribes of Israyl, the leaders called the heads of Yaaqob. Micahyah 3:1-2, Then I said; Hear now, O heads of Yaaqob, you rulers of the house of Israyl! Is it not for you to know Justice? 2 You who hate Righteousness and love evil; who strip off the skin from My People, and the meat from their bones; 9 Hear now, O heads of the house of Yaaqob, you rulers of the house of Israyl, who abhor Justice and pervert all equity, 10 Who build up Zion with blood, and Yerusalem with iniquity: 9 11 Her heads judge for reward and her priests teach; give instruction in the Law, for pay, and her prophets divine for money. Yet they lean upon Yahweh, and say; Is not Yahweh among us? No evil can come upon us! 12 Therefore, because of you, Zion will be plowed like a field, Yerusalem will become heaps of rubble, and the mountain of The House of Yahweh like the high places of a forest. As history shows, Mt. Zion was plowed by the great Roman army and their slaves they took captive and put to forced labor. So another point was proven by Yahweh. Now we are in the present prophesied generation and the prophesied end of 4,200 Satan-owned religions about to go to war and destroy themselves. But! In the Last Days Mattithyah 24:3, 7, 21-22, 29, Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the Disciples came to Him privately, saying; Tell us, when will these things be? What will be the sign of Your coming and The End of the Ages? 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences; disease epidemics, and earthquakes; natural disasters, in place after place: 21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time no, nor ever will be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect s sake, those days will be shortened. 29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door. 34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.

10 Verse 29 shows nuclear wars that will darken the sun. Compare: Isayah 24:1-6 1 Before Yahweh s very Eyes, the earth is made empty and it is made waste; the face of it is perverted and its inhabitants scattered abroad; 2 And it will be: as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his owner; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with him who takes usury, so with him who gives usury to him: 3 The land will be utterly emptied and utterly plundered, for it has come to pass that this Judgment has been pronounced. 4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world mourns and fades away, and the haughty people of the earth languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant. 6 Because of this, the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell therein are desolate; therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. In the Last Days In this same generation comes the everlasting Work of Yahweh that will bring in Yahweh s Righteousness that will stop war and bring True Peace to all future generations on earth and in the universe. All of the Prophecies have come to pass except the nuclear burning. The nations are getting ready, as I write, to fulfill that Prophecy. Now read: Micahyah 4:1-3 1 But in the Last Days it will come to pass that the mountain; promotion, of The House of Yahweh will be established in the chief of the na tions. It will be raised above all congregations; and all peoples will eventually flow to it. 2 And many people will go and say; Come, and let us go up to the mountain; uplifting, of Yahweh, and to the House of the Father of Yaaqob, and He will teach us of His Ways, and we will walk in His Paths. Because the Laws will depart from Zion, and the Word of Yahweh from Yerusalem. 3 And He will judge between many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, nor will they learn war anymore. The House of Yahweh was established in this present, prophesied generation by the prophesied person whom Yahweh named in His Prophecies that would establish His House in the chief of the nations. Yahshua said: Mattithyah 6:33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Deuteronomy 12:5 But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name and there you must go. There Still Remains the Keeping of Yahweh s Sabbaths Mattithyah 16:18 And I also say to you who are Kepha: That upon this Rock, YAHWEH UNITY; I will build this house; family: The House of Yahweh, and the gates of sheol (hell) will not prevail against it. Yahshua is High Priest over The House of Yahweh in this generation. He s sitting at the Right Hand of Yahweh. Revelation 22: And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be. 13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. 14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates 10 into the City. 15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of Gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws. 16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star. Notice in verse 16, Yahshua sends His Messenger. Compare: Mattithyah 24:14 And this Joyous Message of the Kingdom of Yahweh shall be preached in all the world from The House of Yahweh at Abel by the Witness Yisrayl; for Yahweh will be with him. He will preach this Message to all nations; and then The End will come.

11 Hebrews 10:21 Where? And having a High Priest over The Micahyah 4:1-3 House of Yahweh: What is Yahshua, the High Priest over The House of Yahweh, teaching? Hebrews 10:16 This is the Covenant that I will renew with them after those days, says Yahweh: I will put My Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them. Hebrews 4: Now Yahshua caused them to Rest in obedience to the Law, spoken of by Yah weh in a day previously. 9 Therefore, there remains the keeping of the Sabbath to the People of Yahweh, 10 For he who has entered into His Rest has also ceased from his own works, as Yahweh did from His. 11 Therefore, let us be zealous to enter into that Rest, so that no one may fall after the same example of unbelief. I Corinthians 5:8 Therefore, let us keep the Feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and Truth. 1 But in the Last Days it will come to pass that the mountain; promotion, of The House of Yahweh will be established in the chief of the nations.
