Conclusion -- The Bible is NOT what is claimed for it

The following are what I currently understand to be THE issues with regard to the Bible

1.  Yah wants relationship

Yah wants us to seek a DEEP personal relationship with HIM NOT a book.  He created us for relationship.  Yah says that the Bible is “the greatest idol on earth”.  People mistake Yah’s grace in working with the Bible as indicating His approval, big mistake.

2.  The Bible is the outcome of a battle between Yah and Satan that Yah lost

The Bible is the outcome of a battle between Satan and Yah through men that resulted in only one very limited collection of fragments of writings being preserved to become what we call “The Bible” – from biblios – Greek for book.

3.  The English translations and derivatives are massively corrupt

The English translations and those derived from them are massively corrupt in in terms of the use of blasphemous and corrupt names and concepts such as “The LORD”, “God”, “Jesus”, “Christ”, “holy”, “cross”, bias towards deity of Jesus, “Old Testament – New Testament”, false bias against Yah’s form of union between man and woman, etc, etc.  Much material on the website discusses this.

4.  The Bible is mostly a reasonably accurate historical account

The writings in the Bible ARE for the most part a reliable and accurate, albeit very limited, historical record, as far as it goes, there are massive gaps.

5.  Less than 2% of the Bible is inspired

Yah says that “less than 2% of the Bible is inspired”.  The Bible DOES included some passages and verses that ARE direct from Yah but these are scattered amongst the other text which is simply writings based on knowledge.  Key elements of Revelation ARE accurate.

6.  The Bible is based on fragments of manuscript

The Bible is based on fragments of manuscripts preserved through persecution and neglect.  Very little of the original text in the “New Testament” was written in Greek and there was NO control of scribal error and emendation.  Much of the “Old Testament” was written from memory in Babylon.

7.  Massive emphasis on building doctrine from the Bible leads to massive error

The massive emphasis on building doctrine from the Bible has led to what Yah calls “wholesale error” and given the forces of darkness almost total freedom to mislead believers.  The church is breaking ALL of the Ten Commandments assisted by the Bible.

8.  Yah hates the Bible because it leads men away from Him

Yah hates the Bible because it is Satan’s way of forcing Yah to interact with nearly all believers on Satan’s terms.  Satan hates it for the limited truth it DOES contain and that Yah IS able to lead some people to deep relationship with Himself through it.

9.  Yah wants relationship

Fundamentally Yah wants DEEP personal relationship with EVERY single person and the Bible gets in the way of that.

See other articles below for much more information.

 

The previous article focused heavily on the weaknesses and negative aspects of the Bible, this article lists what IS positive about it.

1.  Most of the book IS reasonably accurate historically

Most of the Bible is a factual and reasonably accurate historical account of Yah’s interaction with men from which we CAN derive significant learning IF we turn to Yah to answer our questions and interpret.

 

2.  Fundamental commandments ARE accurately recorded

The fundamental laws in the form of the so-called “Ten Commandments” ARE accurately recorded.

3.  Basic application of the Commandments is addressed to a point

The basic interpretation and application of the commandments is demonstrated to a point IF we turn to Yah to answer our questions and interpret.

4.  Various principles at a headline level

Various  principles relating to being in relationship with Yah are demonstrated and discussed at a headline level, again subject to turning to Yah for detailed understanding and application.

5.  Some limited inspired sections

There are SOME limited inspired passages, sometimes single verses, albeit frequently badly translated, which DO provide a foundation for Yah to build on – primarily some of Proverbs, some elements of historical accounts both relating to Yahooshua, pre-Yahooshua and post-Yahooshua, particularly by Shaul {Paul} and parts of Revelation.

6.  Some statements of Yah’s plans – so-called “prophecy”

Some statements of Yah’s plans and intent by His spokesmen {prophets}}, generally at a sketchy level so that Yah’s servants in later generations have some limited guidance as to what to pray and intercede for.  Most important in this generation are elements of Revelation.

7.  All of this is compromised

All of this coloured and influenced by the factors discussed in the previous article so, while a useful basis for seeking Yah for clarification the Bible is NOT a basis for in-depth intellectual analysis without the Spirit of Yah.  It is also and wide open for demonic interference coloured by the worldly context that totally corrupts the fundamentals and detracts from deep knowledge of Yah such that a few draw closer to Yah and the majority worship the book {bible} or walk away.

8.  Satan does hate it because it contains remnants of truth

The forces of darkness DO hate the Bible because it DOES contain accurate history and facts about Yah and some inspired words and Yah HAS managed to work through it to a point.  Remember that the goal of the forces of darkness is to UTTERLY defeat Yah on earth but that does NOT validate it as “the Word of God / Yah”.

9.  Read prayerfully and in different translations there IS much to learn

Read prayerfully there IS much to learn from the Bible as a STEPPING STONE BUT it MUST be read in close consultation with Yah and with openness to finding error, particularly in the English and other translations derived from / informed by the English versions.  I recommend “The Scriptures”, “The Living Torah” and “The Amplified Bible” in particular although they all contain substantial errors.  There are many thousands of pages on this website http://www.end-time-issue-ministries.org given by Yah at various levels that will enable those who study them to learn much about the things of Yah.

I was asked to sum up my understanding with regard to the book commonly referred to as “The Bible”.

Following is a reasonably comprehensive summary of the headline points regarding the Bible which are discussed in greater detail in the articles listed at the end of this article:

1.  Bible is NOT a magic word

Bible is derived from the Greek Biblios which means a book and is related to Biblos which was a major centre of papyrus manufacture.  So, the word Bible has NO significance at all.

Assigning special meaning to the Bible massively distracts people from serving Yah in person.

 

2.  The Bible does NOT claim to be “The Word of Yah” or to be without error

Nowhere IN the Bible does ANY author let alone ALL authors claim that the Bible is given by Yah.  Even in the preamble to the average Bible NO such claim is made.  Furthermore no claims are made in the book regarding it being without error.

“The Word of Yah” and “without error” both massively distract people and are false.

3.  It is highly unlikely that the Bible is “the living word of Yah”

“The living word of Yah” implies an extremely high level of anointing and therefore infilling of the Spirit of Yah.  For it to be the “living word of Yah” the entire book would have to be written by people with this level of infilling of the Spirit of Yah.  There is no indication in any of the writings that the people who made these records were at this level of infilling at the time they wrote and, in my personal experience, Yah does NOT give that level of anointing for general documentation purposes.  He desires us to apply our minds and our intellect so, generally it is unlikely that Yah would dictate these exact passages and, most of them are NOT worded in such a way as to suggest that they are direct dictation from Yah.

“The living word of Yah” ascribes a level of anointing to the writers that is completely unjustified and, again, distracts others from seeking to know Yah deeply.

4.  Most of the Bible is simply history so no need for it to be inspired

A large proportion of the Bible comprises historical accounts that require NO anointing or inspiration to record.

Ascribing inspiration to simple historical accounts devalues the entire essence of inspiration.

5.  The Bible contains obvious errors

Both the so-called “Old Testament” and “New Testament” contain obvious errors which denies any claim that it is “without error”.  For example the accounts of the death of Judas Iscariot in Matthew and Acts do NOT agree.  The genealogies in Matthew and Luke do NOT agree.  The reasons given for David numbering Israel differ, one attributes his action to Yah, the other to Satan.  The exact wording of the Ten Commandments differs although the different accounts claim to be verbatim transcripts of what Yah spoke on the Mountain, etc.  There are websites that list the discrepancies in detail and there are other websites that go to great lengths to explain and justify the discrepancies.

Denying the errors and constructing convoluted arguments to justify obvious errors makes Yah look foolish, compromises the integrity of the believers who advocate such lies and opens the door for massive demonic infestation.

6.  No such thing as “The Canon of Scripture”

Yah says there is NO such thing as the Canon of Scripture.  He has spoken to millions of people in detail over the years, millions of documents have been written, Yah HAS at some level influenced the thoughts of every human being who has ever lived.

The concept of the “Canon of Scripture” is one of the most destructive lies associated with the Bible.  The consequence of believing the “Canon” is that people believe that Yah has only taken the trouble to speak to men in such detail to the sum total of a bit over a thousand pages in six thousand years.  This massively devalues the reality of Yah’s interaction with mankind.

Another consequence of the lie of “The Canon of Scripture” is that anointed servants devalue the revelation, visions and messages given to them and fail to give them the import that they deserve.  Yah speaks to His servants today, as He has spoken throughout time and His messages today are MOST important today, two and three thousand year old texts are NOT the MOST important message from Yah today.   The entire spiritual dispensation today is radically different to that which any person except Yahooshua could have envisaged at the time the texts that make up the Bible were written.

7.  Worship of the Bible massively limits Yah

All the above points give rise to a situation in which the Bible is effectively worshiped and, in the process, massively limits Yah.

People hold that the Bible is THE authoritative document and under value millions of other writings.  People rely on “Bible Study”, “Bible School”, “Bible …” instead of seeking Yah’s spokesmen {prophets} and a personal relationship with Yah.

Massively corrupt and fundamentally inaccurate and false interpretation and extrapolation of isolated verses builds huge intellectual and demonically inspired constructs that bear NO relation to the truth with the result that human beings are totally mislead with regard to what is really going on in the spiritual realm.  The prevalent interpretations of the Book of Revelation are the most dramatic example of this.

8.  Current Christian Bible assembled by a group of men in a corrupt dispensation

The current Christian Bible has its roots in Rome and was assembled by a group of corrupt men in a corrupt dispensation.

Many modern believers distain or reject the Roman church yet they worship one of the early Roman churches most significant achievements, the Bible.

Lack of awareness of readily available history compromises the intellect of believers and again opens them to demonic attack.

9.  66 books in the Protestant Bible indicates men have tampered with it

The Protestant Bible contains 66 books, 6 is the number of man.  Yah indicates that this indicates that men have tampered with the Bible and states that the Roman church excluded substantial bodies of text which were NOT aligned with their beliefs.

So this supposedly definitive and complete book is fraudulently deficient.

10.  All major English translations of the Bible are fundamentally corrupt in terms of names, etc

All the major English translations of the Bible are fundamentally corrupt, they all contain the same errors with regard to “The LORD”, meaning “Baal” instead of “Yahooeh” or “Yah the eternally self-existing”, “God” instead of “Mighty One”, “Jesus” instead of “Yahooshua”, “cross” instead of “stake”, “Christ” instead of “anointing of the Spirit of Yah” or “anointed of Yah”, names containing “Yah” translated completely differently, etc.

The consequence of this is that English speaking believers and those who rely on translations based on the English versions are completely misled in terms of the names and led frequently into paganism rather than relationship with Yah.

11.  Most of “New Testament” written in Aramaic and NOT Greek

Supposedly the “New Testament” was written in Greek.  This is false.

Yahooshua and those who followed him spoke and wrote Aramaic.  Only a few letters to Greek believers were written in Greek.

The reason the source documents are in Greek is that the Jews hated those who followed Yahooshua because they used the true names and challenged the traditions of Israel, as a consequence the Jews seized all available manuscripts and destroyed them.  From the other side, the Roman occupiers of Israel and surrounding nations hated the followers of Yahooshua because they confronted their paganism and therefore they too seized the Aramaic documents and destroyed them.

All that survived were Greek translations.  These translations were prepared under less than ideal conditions, with no formal quality control and filtered through increasingly corrupt doctrines.

Relying on these translations as being definitive is fundamentally flawed.

12.  New Testament compiled from fragments that differ in about 1,250 places

The “New Testament” as it exists today was compared from fragments of manuscripts that were collected and which differ to the extent of something like 1,250 points from one another.

Some sources refer to “the most reliable sources” and others claim that these “reliable sources” were found in a rubbish tip outside a monastery in the Sinai Peninsula.  “In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”, the source of Trinity doctrine occurs only once and then only in SOME manuscripts.

13.   “Old Testament” largely compiled from memory in Babylonian exile

The “Torah scrolls” on which the “Old Testament” is allegedly based were destroyed at the time of the Babylonian exile and pieces were recreated from memory by Jews in Babylon after a massively traumatic defeat and forced march.

14. Tradition regarding “Moses wrote the five books before he died including what happened after he died, is fundamentally flawed

Certain people claim that Moses was given the five books attributed to him by inspiration such that he wrote about what would happen after he died.

This is fundamentally false.  Yah has repeatedly said to me that we are NOT glove puppets and that He deals with situations as they unfold, we are NOT living some bizarre and perverse pre-scripted pantomime.  Again we see traditions relating to the Bible leading people away from understanding the way Yah works.

15.  The Bible Code is a smoke screen

Yah says that “the Bible Code is a smoke screen”.  The entire creation, the Universe, every plant and animal, the minute precision of DNA, the Periodic Table of the Elements in Chemistry, ALL evidence the existence of the Creator.  To suggest that Yah has seen it necessary to hide some code in the “original Bible text” in order to prove that He exists and that the Bible is inspired by Him simply does NOT correlate with the facts that are available with the simplest observation.

16.  Prophecy fulfilled is testimony to Yah’s spokesmen NOT the Bible

People argue that the fact that there are statements in the Bible about the future that have been fulfilled proves that the Bible is the Word of Yah.  This is NOT so, it proves that Yah spoke through His spokesmen {prophets} then just as He does today and that someone, who was not necessarily at all inspired, recorded what was said.

The fulfillment of statements made by Yah is MORE a sign that in the age when those statements were fulfilled there were spokesmen who prayed those events into existence.

17. The Bible is a manifestation of the war between Yah and Satan

The Bible is fundamentally the remnant that Yah has managed at some level to preserve as mankind has capitulated to Satan on so many fronts and, on the other hand, it is the remnant that Satan has NOT been able to destroy and therefore Satan hates it and has done all that he can to neutralize it.

Conclusion – almost all of what is claimed for the Bible is FALSE

The bottom line is that virtually all that is claimed for the Bible is FALSE, all that can really be found to be true is that it is a collection of writings about man’s interaction with Yah that are at some level factual.

Further articles below this:

Most recent articles at the top of the list, accordingly the items at the top are the most accurate reflection of my understanding and those at the end of the page are the oldest and most likely to be least accurate, accordingly, you might want to skim the page from the bottom up.

 

Recently someone asked me for guidance with regard to which bible version they should be using

This is my response:

“Important to recognize that the bible was compiled by the Roman Church under Constantine in about 300 AD

It is the work of men and because of the lies believed about it it has MASSIVELY limited the way in which the Almighty has been able to interact with the majority of believers

The bible is one of the greatest victories of Satan and Yah hates it because of the way He is forced to work with a book approved by Satan

Furthermore the English translations of the bible and all other translations that have used the English translations as their source are full of massive error in terms of the true Name of the Creator – “Yah the eternally self-existing” NOT “God” or “The LORD”, the Name of Yahooshua (NOT Jesus), reference to “the anointing of the Spirit of Yah” as “Christ”, etc and this has fed almost universal error in the body of believers who rely on the bible

Satan hates the bible because it still contains some truth and it has enabled many to retain some level of relationship with the Almighty and has therefore done all he can to destroy it and, in the process, has given greater credibility to worship of the bible as “The Living Word of God” and other mistaken beliefs

So, while we CAN learn from the bible and I, myself, have come that route, using the bible to substantiate anything of substance is highly suspect

Yah wants a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP with each and every one of us and He hates it when people put their worship of the book {bible from Greek Biblios = “book”) in the way of learning to hear Him personally and learning to talk to Him and be guided by Him constantly

 

I came to a close relationship with the Almighty at Passover 1993 after He spoke to me audibly when I was considering taking my life.  He showed me that if I had died then I would have been cast into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone and that I was about to pass the last opportunity that I would have in my life to turn to Him.  I gave Him my life unconditionally and committed to do whatever He called me to do.

He put me in touch with a strong believer who I knew through business and he in turn took me to his assembly.  I was impacted by the level of knowledge and immediately assumed that everything that they taught was accurate.  However, having made such an intense commitment and being an engineer with an extremely analytical mind and knowing that I had used up the grace available to me I rapidly started asking questions.

I soon discovered that the answers to my questions were frequently unacceptable to the church even though Father validated them repeatedly, on a number of occasions through dramatic spiritual events.

In 1995 I prayed for the first time “Father, I ask you to lead me into ALL truth”, I also asked Him to bring the people He wanted into my life and take the people that He did NOT want in my life out.  I also asked that I might be found a “good and faithful servant on the Day of Judgment”.  Following these prayers my life started to change dramatically and nearly everyone who was in my life was taken out in the next twelve months.  I was also kicked out of a number of churches for my unacceptable beliefs – yet Father continued to say I was going in the right direction and confirmed this repeatedly through numerous of His spokesmen and women who did NOT understand the significance of what they were saying.

Father continued to work with me and in 1998 I prayed “Father judge me severely and correct me harshly that I may serve you more perfectly” and “Father, please show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it”.  I continue to pray all the above prayers regularly today.  The revelations continued.

In the middle of 2000 I found myself in a situation where I was totally dependent on Father for my provision and I found that what I was praying and doing – in line with what I had believed from the church – was not working.  In desperation I decided to fast and seek His face and I embarked on what ended up being 8 three day fasts at intervals of ten days – 3 day fast, 7 days eating normally.  Concurrently all I did was to pray, read the bible and other sources of information and write what I was shown.  With the fasts I prayed to be shown my error – the fasts were specifically directed at CORRECTING ERROR in my life.  Within a few weeks I started to receive a barrage of revelation through emails, direct words from the Almighty, spiritual experiences, things I observed around me, etc, etc.

By the end of the eighth fast on 31 December 2000, Father gave me a message “The Wrath of God for the Church” which was about the doctrinal error in the church – I was battling to internalize all the information that had deluged and so I still used “God” although I had recently encountered “Yahweh”.

Father called me into full time prophetic ministry but kept me almost totally isolated at home.  We sold assets to survive.  I continued to spend all my time seeking Father, reading about Father and writing what I was shown.  In the space of about two years I wrote about 750 articles amounting to about 10,000 A4 pages.  By the end of 2001 almost nothing that I had believed remained, I had been shown that just about everything the Christian Church teaches was false and that the demonic realm was dominating the Church.  I was isolated and alone, a few people remained on my mailing list but the vast majority of Christians rejected me.  It was an extremely difficult time and then Father told me to return to my business and rebuild it.

During this period I was shown that it was time for Satan to be sent to the Pit for a thousand years and that since only men have authority on earth only a man could bring the charges against Satan.  I was further shown that if the man concerned subscribed to any of the lies or errors that Satan had brought upon the earth that man would have NO legal standing in the Court of Heaven to bring the charges.  I understood that I was being prepared to do this but I was NOT permitted to discuss this with anyone, not even my wife.

On 3 May 2003, while worshipping, the Spirit of the Almighty came upon me as described in the article at

http://end-time-issue-ministries.org/Articles/ArticleViewPage/tabid/511/ArticleId/165/2011-02-03-Satan-sentenced-to-one-thousand-years-in-the-Pit-on-3-May-2003.aspx

I requested a hearing of the Court of Heaven, commanded that Satan be brought before the Court, read out the Charges (as given by the Spirit of the Almighty), secured a conviction, requested a sentence of 1,000 years in the Pit and called on the messengers {angels} of the Almighty to cast Satan into the Pit.

For most of the next ten years I hardly wrote, I grappled with the truths that I had been taught, attempted to put some critical truths into practice and failed repeatedly, I took some wrong turnings and picked up some extremely heavy demonic infestation which I was finally delivered of in 2010.  At this point I went on seven three day fasts at intervals of seven days requesting cleansing and correction.  At the end of this period I had a settled assurance that the bulk of the fundamentals of what I believed were solid and validated and I resumed writing.  Since then I have published over 250 articles of which about 80% are on the website http://end-time-issue-ministries.org and elsewhere.

These articles were published to a small group of people, some of who have been on the list for many years.  Recently I have been impressed to increase the scope of the list and therefore most of those who are receiving this email know little or nothing about me.

As before I have experienced a substantial amount of rejection and argumentation and been called a “false prophet” on a number of occasions.

About a month ago the Almighty said to me “son of man, have you seen the arrogance of these who call themselves ‘Christian’ in their ignorance” and I was given the outline of the article below.

I have given the above context so that you may know that what I write below I do NOT write lightly and that what I have written in the last three years I have ALSO NOT written lightly – it is the settled and considered opinion of one who has been walking with Yah and seeking ALL TRUTH for twenty years.  If you do NOT understand or do NOT agree, rather go to Father and ask Him for guidance than reject me and, in the process, reject Him who sent me.

I submit for your consideration that UNLESS you pray the prayers above repeatedly and over a number of years and undertake at least one set of seven three day fasts EARNESTLY seeking truth and UNLESS you are open to having just about everything you believe turned on its head, NOTWITHSTANDING how many times you have been caught up into Heaven and had other dramatic experiences with the Almighty you have no real prospect of fully understanding what I am writing about and have written about previously.  Please refer to:

Following is the article “The Arrogance of Christian Ignorance”:

The Arrogance of Christian Ignorance

By

James Robertson

As outlined above I have been on an intense journey to learn the truths of the Almighty and found that virtually everything that the Christian Church teaches is false.  I have also found that the vast majority of Christians are NOT interested in reviewing their doctrines and changing. 

About a month ago the Almighty said to me “son of man, have you seen the arrogance of these who call themselves ‘Christian’ in their ignorance” and gave me the headlines of a message as follows:

1.   The Almighty and His ways are huge and massively complex

The Almighty, His ways, His kingdom are huge and massively complex.  It is beyond the ability of any single human being to fully experience Him or fully comprehend Him or fully know His ways or fully walk in His ways.  This is particularly true of the degenerate people who live today – we have ALL (including myself) degenerated massively from the first man and woman whom Yah (Yah the eternally self-existing, the Almighty, the Creator of the heavens and the earth) {also known as “The LORD” and “God” both of which terms are fundamentally wrong and blasphemous} created just over 6,000 years ago.

We are greatly deluded if we think we know Him and His ways fully and where we judge others based on our miniscule knowledge of these things.

2.   Yah is merciful and meets us where we are

Yah is merciful and gracious and full of compassion.  He meets us where we are and does what He can to help us and guide us but is constrained by our ignorance and our arrogance and our inability to hear Him outside our existing paradigm’s.  Yah grants us dramatic spiritual experience, speaks to us, gives us revelation, catches some of us up to Heaven, grants some of us to meet and speak to Yahooshua {Jesus} personally NOT because we are perfect but because He loves us and because we are at some level seeking and at some level have some small relationship with Him.

3.   Even those close to Him have miniscule knowledge

Even those who are closest to Yah have, in truth, miniscule knowledge and experience of Him.  We are incapable of comprehending all that He is and all of His ways as individuals.  “For we who are MANY are ONE body”.

4.   A dramatic encounter with Yah is NOT an endorsement of our doctrine – there are legal constraints

A minute number of us in this generation have had dramatic encounters with Yah.  I have had the wind of Pentecost blow in my bedroom and had Yah lay His hand on me and impart a significant anointing, I have had Him speak to me personally through many prophets and others, I have had Him speak audibly to me directly, I have had Him call me His friend – NONE of that in any way confirms my doctrine – it simply means that in some small measure I have pleased Him and connected with Him in such a way that He has been able to touch me and grant me some experience that is effectively so miniscule in His scale of things as to be almost insignificant.  These experiences do NOT endorse my doctrine or prove that I am without error or …

This is one of the greatest mistakes that those who have had experience of Yah make, they think that because they have been touched in some way, been used as spokesmen or women {prophets} or had other experiences that this signifies that they are fully in-line with Yah.  I have interacted with some who have been taken up to heaven and interacted with Yahooshua and others, some of whom have had Yahooshua appear to them.  Almost without fail they assume that such an experience, filtered by their knowledge and experience fully VALIDATES who they are, what they believe and their relationship with Yah.  This is NOT so.  There are legal constraints on what Yah can do and say in such an experience.  He may NOT correct doctrine UNLESS you have expressly requested correction of doctrine and then you may well be unable to hear Him on many issues because you cannot believe He will say such things.

Correction of doctrine, in my experience, is frequently an arduous and challenging journey as, frequently, one will find oneself doubting whether Yah would say such a thing.  You must be REALLY committed to seeking truth in this age in order to truly find the REAL TRUTH.

5.   The level of ignorance and wrong belief in ALL groups is huge -- The world is flooded with sin and error

Just over 6,000 years ago, Adam, who knew NO evil, chose to disobey Yah and eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.  The consequence is that for over six thousand years mankind (the sons of Adam) have been learning ALL there is to know about disobedience, error and sin – i.e. evil such that, despite common Christian belief, this generation is, in Yah’s terms, the MOST evil generation that has ever lived.

Accordingly IF serving Yah and being found to be a “good and faithful servant” and an “overcomer” on the Day of Judgement is of any significance to you it is VITAL to understand that YOU will have to WORK HARD to find the truth that applies to you let alone “ALL TRUTH” that applies to you.  Working hard means constantly and sincerely praying for correction, it means fasting periodically in a SERIOUS manner, it means being willing to challenge EVERYTHING you believe other than the existence of the Almighty Himself and even there you are likely to find that He is FAR DIFFERENT from what you have believed about Him.

And, even once you have been exposed to a new truth or been corrected it will frequently take YEARS for you to internalize it and apply it.  In some cases it has taken me the best part of ten years to internalize and adjust my thinking to some of the revelation and correction that I have been given and I STILL find myself slipping into the old thinking and language from time to time.

IF you are serious the approximately 750 documents on the website http://www.etimin.org/ provide a step by step record of my journey with varying degrees of error, particularly in the earlier documents.  More importantly, the approximately 180 documents on the website http://end-time-issue-ministries.org present my consolidated understanding as documented from the Day of Atonement 2009 to Passover 2012, a limited number of further articles have been written since then but NOT uploaded.

Amongst all these documents you will find a large amount of challenging truth but also some error, particularly in some of the older documents – the challenge is, that to the extent there IS error I do NOT always know it is error – and to the extent that my time is very limited it is NOT practical for me to go back and censor the earlier articles and Yah has told me NOT to.  He says clearly that it is the responsibility of each of us to sift truth from error J

6.   The vast majority oppose and condemn Yah’s truth

It is so that, in reality, the vast majority of the world’s people, even the vast majority of the 5,000 most highly anointed one’s who are at some limited level having an impact on the earth, are in serious error and, because of their experiences, opposing Yah’s truths and therefore Yah Himself.

7.   The world and church are sinking ever deeper in apostasy

For the reasons given today the world and the church are sinking deeper and deeper into apostasy.  The Christian church is smitten with pride and arrogance in their great error as custodians of the vital truth about Yahooshua which they have grossly corrupted, the Muslims are full of error, not as extreme as the Christians but severe none-the-less and all the other groups are also massively corrupt and in apostasy.

8.   The Christians are Arrogant in their Ignorance

The net effect is that the Christians are massively ignorant and in massive error because they almost universally fail to truly recognize the Hebrew roots of their faith, the massive falling away and schism between the “Christians” and the “Jews” that had taken place by 600 AD in the time of Constantine and the errors that have been perpetrated ever since. 

Charismatics speak badly of Protestants who speak badly of Catholics who speak badly of … and yet ALL have the same fundamental errors with regard to the names of Yah and Yahooshua, the personage of Yahooshua, the bible, etc, etc, etc and, as discussed in a previous article, they ALL break all of the ten Commandments most of the time.

Because of their ignorance and their mistaken belief that THEY have the truth rather than a desperate and humble seeking after judgment in this life and therefore seeking after truth they are nearly ALL arrogant in their ignorance.  They do NOT know what they do NOT know and therefore they THINK that they DO know.  Those who have been privileged to be granted some significant spiritual experience are frequently the most arrogant and the most resistant to change.

9.   Appropriate prayers and fasting are vital

IF this scares you – which it should – there is ONLY one solution – pray the prayers that are mentioned above and in the document cited above, fast and constantly examine your life.  Ask for correction, expect it and receive it.

The entire world system AND particularly the Christian Church WILL oppose you – it is a lonely and isolated road.  Expect things to go wrong constantly and to suffer loss – it is only by being judged and learning from your judgments that you will climb the mountain of the Most High Creator and be found to be a good and faithful servant and an overcomer on the Day of Judgement.

In recent months I have received a steady stream of emails on various topics that argue matters of doctrine (teaching) from in-depth intellectual analysis of the Bible and other texts.

Frequently these arguments and the resulting conclusions are totally at odds with what the Almighty is saying and it becomes apparent that the writers place high reliance on their intellect and the intellect of other “learned” people.

In doing this they totally miss the message of Yahooshua {Jesus} and every other prophet that has ever lived which is fundamentally, “seek a personal relationship with Yah (the Almighty Creator) and seek to please Him” – fundamentally nothing else matters and nothing else will qualify one to sit on a high throne with Yahooshua for eternity.

This is simple to do but so difficult because it requires one to lay down the worship of one’s intellect and accept that one does NOT know how to overcome, or to please Yah or even how to have a relationship with Him – it is simple because one is only required to completely set aside one’s intellect and walk with Yah by faith and, in a sense, blind trust, it is difficult because our entire upbringing fights against doing this.

Together with this article is also “2012_01_05_Getting close to Yah -- appropriate prayer and fasting are VITAL” which was published on this list slightly over a year ago which sets out a range of measures that one can take in order to hear the Almighty Creator clearly.

I commend this document and the approach that it advocates for your earnest and prayerful consideration.

I regularly encounter people who disagree with what is published on this list and on the ETI websites.

Some just walk away and refuse to have contact, others say nothing and some try and reason with me by stating what they deeply hold to be true.

In responding to your reaction if you disagree with something on this list or on the websites it is important to consider the following:

1. My error

If what is on the list or the websites is error, that is my problem and if I do NOT come to correction and repent before my death I will burn for some part of eternity for that sin.  So, IF you do NOT agree with me the solution is NOT to be offended by my error but to pray that Yah will show me the error of my ways that I may repent.

Note that I have repeatedly stressed that we are each responsible for what we believe and it is up to YOU to decide what you believe of what is written on the list and websites.

Note also that on the old website http://www.etimin.org/ there are articles where my understanding has developed considerably over the years and it is therefore certain that some of the articles on that site contain SIGNIFICANT error so you should pray for guidance when reading articles from that site (and from the new site http://www.end-time-issue-ministries.org/ as well).

2. Your error

If YOU are in error then YOU will burn for part of eternity if you do NOT repent before your death.  So, if you disagree with what is published here it is important that YOU seek the truth diligently.

Somebody said to me yesterday that Yahooshua died so we do NOT have to pay the price for our sins, YES, BUT, ONLY if you repent in this life – Yahooshua did NOT die so we can be sloppy about what we believe and teach lies – Yah HATES that teaching and you will burn terribly if that is something you believe and worse still teach to others.

3.  Other people’s error – “my pastor says”

Then there is the dilemma faced by many people that they subscribe to what they have been taught at church or read in books, or what the majority believe, or what they were taught as children, etc – problem is, as we have seen, nearly everything that is taught is lies!

BUT

If a person challenges or questions what is being taught they are frequently told in no uncertain terms that they are in error, that the pastor has been to Bible School and they have not, that the majority agree, etc and people are made to feel stupid for disagreeing.  They are also frequently given to understand that if they persist in discussing their “wrong doctrines” or questioning the teachings of their leaders they will be cast out of the congregation.

Under such circumstances you will STILL burn for part of eternity for believing those lies and even more so if you have taught them or propagated them BUT the pastor, writer, etc will ALSO burn, not only for their own sin but the sin they have forced you and others into.

Please remember that nearly everything that is taught in the church is false, nearly everything taught in Bible Schools is false and just about everything that the majority agree on is false – Satan is IN the church and controls the church through his demons just as he controlled the “church” in the days of Yahooshua.

4. What to do – based on someone else?

The ONLY reason you should believe on the basis of something that someone else forces on you is if they are willing to commit, IN WRITING, that what they are teaching is the truth AND that they indemnify you and will burn FOR you.

IF they do that they may be walking in presumption so you might want to get out anyway.

IF they tell you that “Jesus paid the price” and you will NOT burn if you are in error then GET OUT immediately!

IF they get sarcastic or aggressive, or harsh in any way then GET OUT.

You should NOT believe based on James Robertson, or Joe Smith, or Pastor X, or some imminent historical character (note that “The Final Quest” reports that “The Great Reformer” almost did NOT make it into heaven – see the article on “Where will YOU spend eternity?”) or EVEN on what “Jesus / Yeshua / Yahooshua allegedly said” based on your corrupt English translation (interpretation) of the Greek translation of the record allegedly recorded by someone who claims to have walked with Yahooshua {Jesus} in the book {bible}.

You should ONLY believe based on your PERSONAL relationship with the Almighty Creator, Yah the eternally self-existing {The LORD, God, Allah, etc).

The ONLY time you should believe someone else is in the case of a woman joined to a man in which case you are commanded to submit to him in EVERYTHING and that INCLUDES accepting his teachings {doctrine} and he will burn for your sin.

5. Guidance by Yah

How do I make decisions based on personal relationship?, I hear you cry!

Well, first of all you need to realize that Yah created YOU to have a personal relationship with Him – if you do NOT have a personal relationship with Yah then your ENTIRE life is POINTLESS and at the end of your life you will be cast into the fire and consumed!

Secondly you need to pray appropriately.

I regard the following prayers, in no particular order, as vital and non-negotiable – all prayers should be prayed to the Father, Yah, in the name of Yahooshua so I will leave those parts out after the first prayer:

Father, I come to you in the name of Yahooshua and I ask you to show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it;

Judge me severely and correct me harshly – if you do nothing else, pray this;

Help me to overcome to the end and be found a good and faithful servant;

Help me to draw close to you;

Help me to hear you clearly and close my ears to all voices that are not from you;

By your Spirit blow away all that I have read or heard or thought that is not of you and imprint all that IS of You;

Where I am unable to hear you please speak to me in whatever way I am able to hear you through people, video, radio, TV, books, magazines, emails, websites, other people, etc, etc;

Open my eyes to see what you want me to see and close my eyes to what you do NOT want me to see;

Enlarge my territory in knowledge of You and Your ways and Your will and Your Kingdom and in relationship with You and in anointing with Your Spirit;

Please fill me with your Spirit;

Help me to put on the WHOLE armour of Yah, the belt of truth (note that truth comes first), the sure footed shoes of the good news of peace, the breastplate of righteousness, the helmet of salvation and the shield of faith, help me to wield the sword of the Spirit which is your commandments and to pray in the Spirit at all times without ceasing (note that you can ask Yah to teach your spirit to pray in the Spirit 24/7);

Bring the people you want into my life and take the people you do not want out; -- be prepared for lots of people to leave and all sorts of unpleasant things to be revealed;

Speak to me through your emissaries {apostles} and spokesmen and women {prophets} and send them across my path; -- be prepared for unusual and sometimes difficult people who may easily offend you

Open the doors in my life that you want opened and close the doors that you want closed;

Show me all demons and curses that are attached to me and how to get rid of them, send people across my path with the anointing to deliver me; -- you need to study demons and deliverance and seek out people who can help you to get free – guaranteed that unless you have put in MAJOR effort over a number of years to get free of demons you HAVE demons and they are corrupting your thinking and leading you into all sorts of sin – you need to deal with blood-line curses and the demons associated with them, etc, etc

Show me all the sins I need to repent of; -- this is an ongoing process for years and probably decades, sit down, pray and make a list of all your sins starting with blood line stuff that you inherited and then list year by year from birth to the present all the things you did wrong and repent of them AND pray for those that you harmed with your sins to forgive you – you will need to do this several times over a period of a year or more with the assistance of the Spirit of Yah before you have cleaned up and you will still find yourself remembering things years later – Yah may require you to go to people and repent of what you did wrong to them, you may need to make restitution, restore things your stole, compensate them for losses they incurred because of the wrong you did them, etc

Show me all the people I need to forgive; -- all the people who have wronged you, forgive them and release them from their debt towards you, including things they have stolen, etc – you may be able to just pray this but you may need to go to people and actively forgive them and release them

Teach me to quieten my spirit so I can hear your still, small voice;

Help me to qualify to sit on a high throne with Yahooshua for eternity;

Put my flesh to death so that I may live by your Spirit; -- if you are truly Spirit filled the strength of your physical body will diminish and you will become increasingly dependent on the strength of the set-apart {Holy} Spirit of Yah.  If something then happens like major sin, fear, anger, strife or other things that drain the anointing of the Spirit of Yah you will find that you become very weak and you will age rapidly – strife in a marriage is a particular problem here

Help me to bring You joy every day;

Whatever else you are led to pray at any particular time.

By the way, once you start praying the above it is probable that if you are still in the formal “church” Yah will take you out very quickly.

You also need to worship regularly – not “feel good” worship, definitely NOT worshipping Yahooshua or Jesus but worship that lifts Yah up and makes Him feel good and that humbly requests Him to move in your life, etc – refer the article “2011.07.05 Some important worship songs” for a list of songs that I have used for years and keep coming back to – there are many others but not that have the significance and anointing that those on this list have.

6. Sensitivity and obedience

Praying the prayers is NOT enough.

You need to be sensitive and obedient – Yah can start closing a door but you can storm through it or block it open, or ignore it, or ...

You can ignore His voice.

You need to PRACTICE hearing His voice, you need to get on your knees so you can hear better, you need to do things because you THINK you heard His voice – if you think Yah has spoken to you then ACT, if you are unsure then ask for confirmation or guidance but if it is NOT a massive issue then just tell Him you are going to do what you think He has told you to do and DO it and check in with Him if you did it right – ask Him to guide you, to close and open doors, etc.

Spending hours or days, or weeks checking and double checking is SIN and it is NOT helpful – walk by faith – JUST DO IT!

Expecting other people to confirm and advise you -- if you are young and inexperienced -- well, maybe for a while -- but Yah wants YOU to hear Him and obey Him.

It is better to do something because you think Yah told you to do it but are not sure than it is to NOT do that thing.

Yah wants obedient servants and servants do NOT argue with their master – yes we do, but that is NOT what Yah wants.

You have to go through SERVANT to get to FRIEND and confidante – it will likely take some years before Yah takes you into His confidence and asks your opinion and consults with you the way He did, for example with Abraham and, unless you really work at it you are not very likely to get there – you do not get to become the Friend of Yah by accident, you get there through commitment and hard work and laying down your life.

If it is a really BIG thing, like sell everything, give it to the poor and move to … halfway round the world, THEN it is reasonable to do a bit of checking and ask for confirmation but even then there is a point at which Yah does NOT expect even such a decision to take you much time – when He tells you to raise your staff over the sea and tell it to open in front of millions of people Yah does NOT want you to take five months of arguing and asking Him for confirmation, He expects you to do it NOW and if you got it wrong take the risk of making a fool of yourself BUT chances are you DID hear Him because His ways ARE foolishness to the ordinary man (including almost all those who claim to believe).

7. Fast and fast again!

In my experience the above is just the entry point.

It is NOT ENOUGH!

I only started to get dramatic revelation eight years after I had been walking intensely with Father when He led me to go on eight three day fasts at intervals of ten days – in other words three days fasting and seven days eating normally – in that case the fasts culminated on the 31^st of December 2000 and Yah then gave me the message “The Wrath of {God} Yah for the Church” and said the church was breaking ALL of the Ten Commandments.

During those 80 days I received massive revelation, about the true names Yah and Yahooshua, about the true Sabbath, about the true feasts, about the pagan and Satanic nature of Christmas, etc, etc.

On those fasts during the three days all I took was the bread and wine – remembering the covenant made by Yahooshua {communion} and limited water.

In the year that followed I continued to get continuous revelation, saw Yah move significantly in my life and wrote hundreds of articles which are included on the old website at http://www.etimin.org/msg3.htm

In the years that followed I fasted periodically, most significantly on the Day of Atonement.

Then, towards the end of 2010, Yah impressed on me to go on seven three day fasts at intervals of seven days, three day’s fasting and four days eating normally, culminating on the 26^th of December 2010 (Christmas).

On the first two fasts and the last fast I drank only a small amount of Grape Juice and ate a small amount of unleavened bread twice a day because I had to take medication.

On the remaining fasts I took the bread and wine morning and evening and drank a significant amount of water as well as I was advised that repeated withholding of liquid could cause permanent damage to my kidneys.  My kidneys were quite painful at the end of the seventh fast and took some months to recover fully – so there is need for caution, do NOT do total three day fasts unless you are SURE Yah requires it.

Note that a total three day fast is required to break certain witchcraft and get rid of certain demons and curses and shift certain other things.

Over that period of fasting and in the months that followed my understanding of various things consolidated and I wrote well over one hundred articles all of which are on the new website at:

http://www.end-time-issue-ministries.org/Articles/tabid/503/language/en-US/Default.aspx

In 2010 I was also told that in order to enter into full blown ministry operating in the power gifts of the Spirit of Yah, conducting spiritual warfare at a level where one could combat major demons, witches, etc, heal the sick, raise the dead and by used for other miracles it was necessary to go on a forty day total fast only drinking water.  I have met several people who have done such fasts and who walk in GREAT power and authority in the Spirit realm, one of these people had been used to raise about 19 people from the dead, one who had been in the morge for two days!

Note that you are likely to become extremely weak during a forty day water only fast and are unlikely to be able to engage in business or even normal domestic activities after about two to three weeks so the series of three day fasts is more practical for many people but is NOT a substitute for a forty day fast IF you are really going ALL OUT.

On the basis of this experience I have to say to you that IF you claim to be serious about serving Yah and you have not fasted at the sort of levels referred to above then you are kidding yourself and playing games.

IF you are serious about serving Yah you need to pray the prayers above REGULARLY and start fasting – it is as simple as that!

8. If you disagree with what is on the End Time Issue Ministries websites

If you disagree with what is on the two websites, taking account of the fact that particularly some of the older articles DO contain error and taking account of the fact that I may still have error I have not recognized then you are welcome to let me know you think I am in error.

BUT

Taking account that I have prayed most of the prayers above over more than a decade, that I have been through ALL the sanctification processes I mention above AND others and that I have fasted extensively I ask you to understand that I will NOT pay much attention to what you have to say in disagreement with me UNLESS you have gone through a similar cleansing process.

So, rather than dismissing me as a madman or heretic, rather than walking away and cutting me out of your life, rather than speaking ill of me, pray ALL the above prayers sincerely and regularly, examine your life and clean it up comprehensively, go on at least one series of eight three day fasts at ten day intervals, walk the road you find yourself on after the fasts for six months and then IF you still disagree with me we can sit down and talk – I FULLY expect that if you do what I have outlined here you will almost certainly AGREE with me on all the critical issues 

AND

You will be far closer to Yah than you have ever imagined possible.

Conclusion

A high level of sanctification and hard work is required to come to a deep personal relationship with Yah and a clear understanding of what really IS truth.

Last week I published an article “The bible is a corrupt book compiled by corrupt men” (article 2012.11.16).

A logical extension of that statement by Yah is the question “IF the Bible IS corrupt then WHAT do I do?”

I have asked the question myself on several occasions and have prayed about it further in the past week.  Here is the answer:

1.  Get closer to Yah

The fundamental reason that Yah hates the Bible (book) the way He does is that through their worship of, and reliance on, the book people are prevented from getting close to Him.

The primary reason for our existence IS to serve Yah, to worship Yah, to have deep relationship with Yah, to talk to Yah, to be His friend and companion and confidante in the world, to fight the battles on earth on His behalf and, ultimately, to reign with His Spirit to restore Yah’s rule on earth.

So, the first thing to do when you realise the bible is JUST a book is to TURN TO YAH with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and seek to develop a DEEP personal relationship with Him.

NOTHING is more important.

2. Stop worshiping the book {bible}

It is one thing to recognize that the book is NOT “the inerrant word of God”, that in fact it is NOT EVEN “the word of God”, that actually it contains errors, that in fact virtually every English translation is MASSIVELY corrupt and that even those that have more accurate language are corrupt – it is ANOTHER thing to walk out this revelation.

Remember that the Greek word “biblios” means book, as in the Afrikaans work “Biblioteek” which means “Library” = a collection of books.

Remember that the bible is an assemblage of writings approved about 600 AD by the same group of men who formally approved worship of Jesus, formally accepted the use of Greek based names such as Jesus (derived from Zeus), who appropriated the right to claim the book was inspired by the Creator, who approved “moving” the Sabbath from the seventh day of the week to the first, who approved the pagan feasts like Christmas and Easter, who legislated monogamy and discounted virginity, etc, etc.

The very genesis of the bible is corrupt – it is constituted of fragments of text, SOME of which were written by anointed writers or about anointed persons which is ALL that Satan permitted to remain about the things of Yah and then, having conceded a small degree of defeat Satan turned around and almost totally defused the value of those texts by causing men to worship them as “the inerrant Word of God”.

Having got this revelation directly from Yah in 2001 it took me about ten years to internalise it – ten years during which I CEASED reading the bible, ten years when for a season I drifted and, to some extent fell back, ten years when I did NOT know what to do.  It is ONLY in the last couple of years that I have comfortably adjusted to this reality and come to terms with what I should do instead.

In fact, even a few months ago I complained to Yah that I was battling to get back close to Him and that once upon a time I would have immersed myself in the bible – “what am I to do now?” I asked Him – to which He replied “read your OWN writings – they are anointed and you do NOT know your own writings that well” subsequently He instructed me to compile all my more recent writings into a set of collated books, a task which is still pending as I regain my health.

Bottom line?  There ARE other measures you can take instead of relying on the bible, these are set out below.

3.  Stop worshiping men and relying on them

Another trap, as great as the trap of worshiping the bible, if NOT more of a trap, is the worship of men and reliance on men.

We are conditioned to rely on the preacher or teacher or Pharisee or Rabbi or other man or woman who hears Yah or who claims to hear Yah or who we believe hears Yah and NOT think for ourselves or not seek a personal relationship with Yah ourselves.

It is available to YOU to have a closer relationship with Yah than ANY other person on earth today IF you set your heart to it and make the sacrifices that are required – pray the prayers, do the things, be obedient NO MATTER what the price, seek Yah and He WILL be found by you for He DESIRES to be found by you.

Son of man, what makes you think that you are so important to Satan that Yah does NOT want a relationship with you?

Yah does save Satanists, Wizards and Witches when they ask or when close family ask so WHY would He NOT want a close relationship with YOU?

4.  Learn to HEAR Yah clearly

A necessary step in the journey I am discussing is that you must learn to hear Yah clearly.

To do that you need to DECIDE that you want that.

You need to PRAY for Him to clear out your spiritual ears.

You need to pray all sorts of prayers, you need to fast AND above all you need to test obedience.

How will you know you are hearing Yah if you do NOT act on what you hear?

Test what you hear for reasonableness – remember that UNTIL you have set yourself apart to a considerable level and got rid of your demons (YES YOU DO HAVE DEMONS), got rid of all the other spiritual drek that you inherited from your forefathers and that you have accumulated during this life -- you are surrounded by spiritual noise that contaminates your hearing – there are other articles on this list that deal with setting apart in more detail.

BUT, remember, that most of the time most of what you have learned on earth is CONTRARY to the ways of Yah – most of what you have learned in church is corrupt and much is downright FALSE – so the day you choose to follow Yah alone you are going to find Him telling you things and telling you to DO things that are likely to rattle your cage!

Where necessary pray and pray again, He will NOT refuse you if you come to Him with a humble heart and ask for confirmation of clarification BUT a moment will come when He expects you to OBEY.

It will start out with easy things like “stop and pick up that hitch hiker and give them R100 / $10 and tell them I love them” – THAT is NOT easy at first – the more you are obedient the more the instructions and tasks will get more complicated and more challenging but will, initially, still be in the relatively easy realms of “give that man R1,000 / $100” or similar.

Over time you will find yourself getting more complex and more challenging instructions which will become more and more specific to what Yah wants to do in YOUR life personally.

You may go through a period of “go to this church and tell the pastor that I am well pleased with him” and then progress to “go that pastor and tell him he is out of line and if he persists in his current direction he will soon lose all hope of salvation” – be prepared to be thrown out of assemblies and to be vilified – when you get to that point you can begin to realise that perhaps you ARE starting to hear Yah clearly.

Remember ALWAYS that the ways of Yah are NOT the ways of the world and NOT the ways of the church – choosing to HEAR Yah and be obedient is a choice to follow a lonely life for most people simply because there are SO FEW who chose this course of action so you WILL find it lonely – BUT you WILL have prestigious company in heaven IF you overcome on this path for the rest of your life.

The more you are obedient the more you will hear.  The more you argue and resist, the less you will hear until, in time, Yah will cease speaking to you if you persist in your disobedience and rebellion – so do NOT ask Him to teach you to hear Him UNTIL you are CERTAIN you are prepared to obey and, it is so that there will be times when you hesitate and hold back and have no one to turn to except Yah and THAT is where you REALLY want to be J

5.  Learn to be LED by Yah in every possible way

As an extension of the previous point seek to be led by Yah in every possible way, pray prayers like “open the doors You want opened and close the doors You want closed”, “bring the people You want into my life and take those that You want out, out”, etc – refer previous articles for more on these prayers.

Then, be SENSITIVE to His leading, if you arrange a meeting and it is cancelled and arrange another and it is cancelled, let it go, it is likely Father does NOT want you to have that meeting now or at all.

Look for doors that are opening and go through them and doors that are closing and turn aside.

Note that the road is STRAIT and the gate is NARROW that leads to eternal life and that the gate is WIDE that leads to destruction – this is NOT the easy way, so as Yah leads you do NOT expect it all to be plain sailing and easy, there WILL be opposition in the spiritual realm which will manifest in the physical realm.

It takes years of self-discipline and seeking Yah to come to a place where you are REALLY led by the Spirit of Yah and FEW people achieve this – largely because we live in a culture where few people teach that this is possible and even fewer teach HOW to do it – that does NOT prevent YOU from seeking this, it IS available to ALL who seek it! J

6.  Pray prayers that give Yah free reign in your life

Coupled with the previous points is how you pray and how you worship.

The articles on worship in recent weeks give you Psalms that have powerful words that will give Yah room to work in your life.

The various prayers set out in articles over the last few months and at intervals over the last more than a decade give an indication of what to pray.

The MOST IMPORTANT PRAYER, I think, is “Father, judge me severely and correct me harshly that I may serve you more perfectly” and second to this “show me the level of my present deception and how to correct it”.

Then DO what you find to do in response to Yah’s working in your life.

If you do NOT have the courage to pray these two prayers then admit to yourself that you are NOT really serious about all of this and be resigned to a BAD REPORT on the Day of Judgment.

If you REALLY believe there IS a Day of Judgment you should have NO difficulty praying these prayers J  Trust Yah, He IS merciful and compassionate, and caring AND He will NOT allow you to be tested beyond what you can endure!

7.  There are millions of other books, read them

You can still read the bible if you want PROVIDED you have the correct perspective on it, but once you recognize it for what it is, a useful historical record with some limited inspired passages then you are likely to find that one or two readings are sufficient.

It is written of Yah “in whom we live and move and have our being” – Yah is everywhere, Yah teaches and inspires engineers, scientists, artists, politicians, etc, etc – at whatever level is consistent with what is prayed by them, their families and others who intercede for them.

Thus there are millions of books with comparable levels of inspiration and reliability to the bible – ask Yah which you should read and be aware that He may only want you to read ONE paragraph!

I have hundreds of books, some I have not read at all, some I have read a few pages, some I picked up in a book store and opened at a particular paragraph which answered a particular question and I have never looked at again.

Being led by the Spirit of Yah is about being sensitive and obedient to His leading and NOT being legalistic – remember, He wants a DEEP PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU!

8.  Read your own writings

If you have been walking reasonably closely with Yah for some time, have fasted and prayed and out of this leading have written articles or even letters, then go back and read your own writings.

As I mentioned above, some months ago Yah advised me to read my own writings and cautioned me that I do NOT understand or apply all that I have written myself.

If you visit my two websites you will find close to 1,000 articles some of which are highly anointed and accurate and some of which, particularly the older articles, are full of error.  The articles published from late 2010 when I did seven three day fasts, are, I believe, reasonably reliable and reasonably inspired but there are others written years ago which are also important – so, if you have read the bible several times and have not read most of my writings, that might be a useful place to go next PROVIDED you see them as the writings of a man and do NOT start worshiping them!

9.  Get VERY CLOSE to Yah

By now I hope that you have seen that the correct response to the realization that the bible is corrupt is to draw VERY CLOSE to Yah – that is the beginning and the end – Yah CREATED US to have relationship with Him, that is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING!

Conclusion

Yah clearly wants a deep personal relationship with each and every one of us.  Worshiping the bible massively gets in the way of this so, turn to Yah and seek to know Him clearly and deeply, to hear Him, to be led by His Spirit in every possible way and seek to learn to be obedient.

 

In September I published the article 2012.09.03 “Satan's most effective lies”

In response to that a person on the list sent me a very detailed rebuttal and then subsequently suggested that I was heading towards forming a cult

Insofar as I am firmly of the opinion that it is NOT my job to force anybody to believe what I believe and that we each have a FREE CHOICE, I thought it would be appropriate to publish the rebuttal, since the party concerned obviously went to quite a bit of trouble compiling it and thereby give others on the list the opportunity to form their own opinions.

Following is the full email thread so start reading from the last item back up.

>>> EMAIL BEGINS <<<

Hi B…

Thank you for your concern

At the end of the day you believe that some voice, be it your intellect or some other voice told you that the bible is the word of God and that same voice or another voice told you that Jesus is God

We can argue intellectually all we like but it will get neither of us anywhere

Fact is you are so sure of your “truth” that you are prepared to make some harsh claims about the voice I am hearing from – which frankly is dangerous, I might just be hearing the true Creator!

I suggest for your prayerful consideration that there is ONLY one way to resolve this:

1.   YOU pray regularly for the next six to twelve months “Father, I come to you in the name of Yahooshua and I ask you to JUDGE me SEVERELY and correct me HARSHLY that I can serve you more perfectly and I ask you to show me the level of my present DECEPTION and HOW to correct it” – respond to EVERYTHING that goes wrong and course correct until the judgment comes to an end – I have been praying this way since about 1998 so I have some basis to believe that I am more or less on track

2.   Simultaneously with the above undertake seven three day fasts at seven day intervals seeking that your flesh is put to death, that you are drawn closer to Yah, that you be brought into His truth, etc and that He will cleanse you of all unrighteousness – concurrently apply all the sanctification processes outlined at http://www.end-time-issue-ministries.org/Articles/ArticleViewPage/tabid/511/ArticleId/91/0080-What-to-do-if-you-do-not-agree-with-what-is-posted-here.aspx

Also read through and apply http://www.end-time-issue-ministries.org/Articles/ArticleViewPage/tabid/511/ArticleId/274/2012-01-05-Getting-close-to-Yah-Appropriate-prayer-and-fasting-are-VITAL-the-answer-to-doctrinal-dif.aspx

3.   If after doing all this and waiting at least six months you STILL believe I am in error THEN let me know and present me with a reasoned argument based on your own revelation and experience after praying these prayers – Yah wants FIRST HAND RELATIONSHIPS WITH US NOT SECOND HAND PROXY RELATIONSHIPS J

Warm regards and blessings,



James

Dear B…
Daddy Yah has clearly and repeatedly stated to me that the bible is NOT His word and therefore a whole spectrum of your arguments below fall flat

Plenty of cult leaders, such as Jim Jones, said the same thing.  Jesus told the Jewish leaders in Mark 7:5-13, that they were never to do what you were doing and to do so made their worship vain. 

Furthermore He has clearly and repeatedly stated that Yahooshua is 100% human, that it was the anointing of the Spirit of Yah ON Yahooshua that performed the miracles and spoke through Yahooshua and that the Trinity is a false pagan i.e. Satanic, concept – Yahooshua has come to me personally and confirmed this

I don't care what you think or what spirit you claim you have..if it disagrees with the Bible, it is not of God. PERIOD.  God made VERY clear that He gave His truth in the Bible. Paul commended the Bereans for testing new truth against the Bible.  What you are doing is what cult leaders throughout history have done and there is NOTHING of God in it. PERIOD. No matter how sincere you may be.

Accordingly, since I find Yah and Yahooshua to be much more trustworthy witnesses than any of the men you cite I regret that I cannot agree with you
Warm regards and blessings,
James

B…>>>

You are not following the tested words of Yah  or Yahooshua in a number of areas and God does not conflict with Himself. You've got another spirit leading you down a dangerous road that is the opposite of the road Yahweh told us to travel.  I know of cases like this, which eventually ended up in Christians getting involved in crime, vandalism and murder.  You may not.  But, there's no chance that what you are advocated in this and certain other things is of God.  Impressions in your mind, must ALL be tested by the Bible...or else there's a HIGH chance, they are not of God. This is the #1 error of cults throughout history.

This is a book you REALLY need to read. It started with a Bible study group encountering an angel...who step by step led them to have the exact same belief you do...that the Bible was outdated...they could ignore it for new revelations, etc.  It eventually ended in them murdering people.  This happened in a city I lived in.  
http://books.google.co.kr/books?id=vG2aM0r-9KgC&printsec=frontcover&dq=roger+morneau&source=bl&ots=m8cqgz49Rc&sig=JrVlODkD8GPnldMq_iE8Zi04tZM&hl=en&sa=X&ei=fZFcUMC_DYmWiALVgYHYBw&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=roger%20morneau&f=false

This will probably not happen for you..but what you are involved in IS a major deception and will hurt you and others (it may be one reason for your wife leaving...that's a guess...but could be right). And Satan will push you as far as he can with this deception that you are involved in. That's what he did with the group above. Each person has limits where they can be pushed..and yours may be different from this group...but ignoring the Bible as the basic test of God's truth is one of the most serious ways that Satan has deceived cult leaders and their followers for centuries and more.

You've GOT to escape this delusion if you're really going to truly be on God's side.

My prayers and deep concern is with you.
God bless,

1. Lies about the bible and other books Many people believe that “The Bible is the Word of God”, this is false, the bible is simply a collection of writings, some of which are to some degree inspired by Yah or about the lives of people who at some level served Yah but it is NOT THE WORD of Yah or anything that approximates that.  Yah has inspired billions of pages and it is a gross insult to limit Him to one “little book” (His words to me).
   
    Building huge and complex teachings on the semantic interpretation of text in the bible is a massive mistake; the same applies to other books, like the Quran which are accorded similar reverence.
2. Lies about Jesus and the Trinity In the “Christian” area one of the most pervasive lies is the lie that Jesus is God and that there is a Trinity.
   
   Firstly, his name was Yahooshua, which means “Yah is salvation” so, by the very definition of his name, Yahooshua was NOT Yah.
   
    Secondly, he was a human being, the result of a creative miracle much LESS significant than the creative miracle whereby Adam was created or the miracle whereby Chavah {Eve} was created – yes, he WAS filled with the Spirit of Yah and thus Yah spoke through him and performed miracles through him but that same anointing is available to YOU today IF you will truly seek Yah fully.
   
   Thirdly, “Trinity” is a pagan, that is Satanic, concept.
   
   
   Hi,
   With all due respect, I think you should read/listen to this links:
   1) The Trinity is fully biblical and Jesus while he was a man, was fully God and was never created.  He claimed to be the "I AM" The Yahweh of the Old Testament. He proved He had divine power by resurrecting and promising His followers eternal life.
   http://www.hebrew4christians.com/Names_of_G-d/Trinity/trinity.html
   
   See also:
   http://marshill.com/media/doctrine/trinity-god-is
   
   
   The trinity doctrine starts in Genesis with God saying, Let US make man and all three members of the trinity being present there.
   
   Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us.
   
   The great Shema of Israel was essentially trinitarian in nature, using the term echad which means unity among several entities, as in a man and woman become one flesh, or the church is one body, but many parts:
   
   http://www.hebrew4christians.com/Scripture/Torah/The_Shema/the_shema.html
   
    The OT prophecies that the Messiah will be the Mighty God:
   
   Isaiah 9:6 For a child is born to us, a son is given to us.  The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
   
   John is especially strong in saying that Jesus is equal to God:
   
   John 1:18 No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.
   
   Jesus claimed to be Yahweh:
   
   John 8:58 Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I Am![k]” 59 At that point they picked up stones to throw at him. But Jesus was hidden from them and left the Temple.
   
   Why did they pick up stones to throw at Him? They understood full well that He was claiming equality with God:
   
   John 10:30 The Father and I are one.”
   31 Once again the people picked up stones to kill him. 32 Jesus said, “At my Father’s direction I have done many good works. For which one are you going to stone me?”
   33 They replied, “We’re stoning you not for any good work, but for blasphemy! You, a mere man, claim to be God.”
   
    
   Later Thomas professed that Jesus was Lord and God:
   John 20:27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”
   28 “My Lord and my God!” Thomas exclaimed.
   29 Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me.”
   
   When Paul and others were called God, they were horrified and rejected that.  Jesus never did, not to the pharisees, not to Peter, not to Thomas. 
   
   Jesus is either God or a horrible blasphemous sinner. There are no other options.

   B)  THE BIBLE’S UNRIVALED ACCURACY & LOGICAL REASONS THE RESURRECTION IS TRUE: 
   While the Bible doesn't claim that it is infallible/inerrant in all parts, many parts are directly from God and the most accurate and truthful things that exist in this world. Bible writers state very clearly when they are conveying the words of God and when they are talking about their own ideas in most cases.
   
   Dr. Martin Lawrence, Ph.D. in medieval history, explains that the evidence for the Bible’s accuracy is stronger than most documents in secular history.
   www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqZP91hGPLQ
   
   These videos by Josh McDowell and others talk of solid reasons why the Bible has an unrivaled track record of accuracy and credibility.
    The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 1 - Josh McDowell (Relativity is popular, but truth is real and provable.  Knowledge and perspective changes, but we can still evaluate evidence.www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze0shXucArA
   
   The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 2 - Josh McDowell explains 2 critical tests about the Bible:
   1) Is the Bible today essentially the same as when it was written?
   2) Is what was written originally true?
   
   2 historical tests of accuracy:
   1) The time gap between original autographa and earliest manuscript of the Bible is shorter than almost all other books of history. We have more time type evidence for the Bible than any other 10 pieces of classical literature combined.
   2) We have far more manuscripts of the Bible than anything else (so it’s easier to do linguistic tests and compare and find what original said)
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNXNXRJH498 (esp. ~5:00+) 
   
   The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 3 (charts of the above 2 questions and historical comparisons­showing most books of history have less evidence than the Bible)

   2 good charts & quotes: http://discovercreation.org/blog/2011/09/
   
   The Bible has gone WAY, WAY beyond any level of extraordinary evidence in comparison to other books of history.
   
   The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 4 - McDowell explains how the Bible was written by eyewitnesses or researchers, using laws of legal evidence. It appealed to many credible witnesses who agreed on crucial details.)
   ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awe9pIqQTKM
   
   The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 5 - McDowell points out that the disciples were threatened with death, but never denied the claims of what they had seen.  Many people have died for lie, but they thought it was true. Apostles knew 100% for certain if Jesus’ resurrection was a lie or true. “They signed their testimony in blood.” as Tertullian said. Even the Watergate conspirators couldn’t keep a secret and their whole careers were on the line. There is no stronger testimony than dying for what a person has seen firsthand. There’s no rational way it could be a lie.
   
   Andre Kohl (graduate from UCLA), the magician’s magician, has invented of ~2,000 illusions/magical effects. He has never been fooled by another illusionist and loves to expose hoaxes. He was challenged to refute the miracles of Jesus. Kohl tried, but failed and became a Christian. He explained that Jesus’ miracles could not have been done by magic because: 
   
   1) Most illusions are done indoors, but most of Jesus’ miracles were outdoors 
   
   2) The environment wasn’t controlled which is a must for most illusions. 
   
   3) Jesus didn’t have semi trucks of modern technology as illusionists do.  
   
   The resurrection was the biggest miracle that couldn’t be explained for reasons given above.
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nJNX46yKhw
   
   See also Andre Kohl’s personal testimony:
   www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdyUURrHnBE
   
   The Authenticity of the Bible - Part 6 - McDowell explains that the disciples didn’t have any inkling that the Messiah had to die. They expected a conquering Messiah as they had been taught their whole lives. Many in history have died for a great cause. But, the disciple’s great Cause died on the cross. There’s only one reason that could have changed to be faithful unto death. That reason is because they genuinely saw Jesus resurrected.)
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ml5T5JFaLM
   
   B) LEGAL REASONS THE RESURRECTION IS TRUE
   Dr. Simon Greenleaf was a Harvard professor of law who wrote “A Treatise on the Law of Evidence”, (considered by many to be one of the greatest legal volumes ever written). He was a skeptic determined to expose the "myth" of the Resurrection & highly qualified to do just that. Here is a couple review of his legal work:
   “It is no mean honor to America that her schools of jurisprudence have produced two of the first writers & best esteemed legal authorities of this century -- the great & good man, Judge Story, & his worthy & eminent associate, Professor Greenleaf. Upon the existing Law of Evidence (by Greenleaf) more light has shone from the New World than from all the lawyers who adorn the courts of Europe.” London Law Magazine
   
   His students challenged him to use the same methods he used to determine truth in the court to analyze the evidence for the case of the resurrection of Jesus. He accepted & after significant investigation, the evidence was so compelling that he became a Christian & documented in a book (which is free online) the reasons for his conclusions, saying:
   
   “The great truths which the apostles declared, were, that Christ had risen from the dead, & that only through repentance from sin, & faith in him, could men hope for salvation. This doctrine they asserted with one voice, everywhere, not only under the greatest discouragements, but in the face of the most appalling terrors that can be presented to the mind of man. 
   
   Their master had recently perished as a malefactor, by the sentence of a public tribunal. His religion sought to overthrow the religions of the whole world. The laws of every country were against the teachings of his disciples. The interests & passions of all the rulers & great men the world were against them. Propagating this new faith, even in the most inoffensive & peaceful manner, they could expect nothing but contempt, opposition, revilings, bitter persecutions, stripes, imprisonments, torments & cruel deaths. Yet this faith they zealously did propagate ; & all these miseries they endured undismayed, nay, rejoicing. 
   
   As one after another was put to a miserable death, the survivors only prosecuted their work with increased vigor & resolution. The annals of military warfare afford scarcely an example of the like heroic constancy, patience & unflinching courage. They had every possible motive to review carefully the grounds of their faith, & the evidences of the great facts & truths which they asserted…It was therefore impossible that they could have persisted in affirming the truths they have narrated, had not Jesus actually risen from the dead, & had they not known this fact as certainly as they knew any other fact.” Simon Greenleaf, “An Examination of the Testimony of the Four Evangelists by the Rules of Evidence Administered in the Courts of Justice”, p.52-53.

Kenneth Scott Latourette, Sterling Professor at Yale University, wrote, "Across the centuries Christianity has been the means of reducing more languages to writing than have all other factors combined. It has created more schools, more theories of education, and more systems than has any other one force. More than any other power in history it has impelled men to fight suffering, whether that suffering has come from disease, war or natural disasters. It has built thousands of hospitals, inspired the emergence of the nursing and medical professions, and furthered movement for public health and the relief and prevention of famine. Although explorations and conquests which were in part its outgrowth led to the enslavement of Africans for the plantations of the Americas, men and women whose consciences were awakened by Christianity and whose wills it nerved brought about the abolition of slavery (in England and America). Men and women similarly moved and sustained wrote into the laws of Spain and Portugal provisions to alleviate the ruthless exploitation of the Indians of the New World…By its name and symbol, the most extensive organization ever created for the relief of the suffering caused by war, the Red Cross, bears witness to its Christian origin. The list might go on indefinitely. It includes many another humanitarian projects and movements, ideals in government, the reform of prisons and the emergence of criminology, great art and architecture, and outstanding literature."

Dr. Randy L. Wysong says, "Evolution can be thought of as sort of a magical religion. Magic is simply an effect without a cause, or at least a competent cause. 'Chance,' 'time,' and 'nature,' are the small gods enshrined at evolutionary temples. Yet these gods cannot explain the origin of life. These gods are impotent. Thus, evolution is left without competent cause and is, therefore, only a magical explanation for the existence of life..."

Conclusion

There are massive complex and convoluted arguments against just about everything that is published on this list – that does NOT make what is published here wrong, it simply means that YOU are faced with a substantial challenge in discerning the truth J

Ultimately, unless someone is prepared to pray for judgment NOW in this life if they are in error their opinion cannot be trusted – and even then you probably need to give them several years of praying that prayer before they have been refined enough to be reliable.

 

In reading what follows it is appropriate for me to give you some historical context:

1968+/- I started reading the Bible because I had been told it was “The Word of God” got as far as Abraham with multiple women, conflicted with the church teaching, threw the book away

1993 – dramatic encounter with the Almighty – knew now for certain that He existed and that I was on my way to Hell if he had not intervened, found people who spoke sense and used the bible as a detailed source of reference material and teachings that made sense – took my bible, held it up to Yah and prayed “Father these people say this is your word, it does not make any sense to me, I chose to believe it is your word and I ask you to answer all my questions”

In the months and years that followed I read the bible (the word means book) over 20 times from cover to cover and another 15 times or more in the New Testament in diverse translations

2001 – Father says to me – “the bible is NOT my word and it is sin to worship it”

In the years that follow He progressively shows me error in the book – I struggle, for eight years I totally believed it WAS His word and used that language in all that I wrote, in my interaction with others, etc – I had invested huge amounts of time proving things from the bible on the basis that it was the final authority but slowly I came to understand what He was saying

2010 – late December, having just completed seven three day fasts over seven weeks for purification of my doctrine and to move closer to Yah amongst other things He says to me “son of man, do you see how this people limit me to one tiny book”

In the months that follow I write various articles each of which is more strongly worded than the last in positioning the bible as a collection of writings compiled by men, often from fragments of manuscripts and falsely deified by men who were responsible for codification of diverse gross errors through the Roman church about 600 years after Yahooshua

Earlier this week, again corresponding with my friend who has asked to be judged severely and corrected harshly – remember that in terms of where he now is he does NOT have the luxury of having things soft soaped or made palatable – he is out on the streets with hardly any food and has lost almost everything – he needs the truth URGENTLY – I was impressed to write:

“You write of straying from Father through people worship -- totally agree a major risk

“Yet you fall into that trap through "bible worship" -- you constantly make reference to "the scriptures" as though there is such a thing

“The bible is a corrupt book compiled by corrupt men from corrupt texts and containing only a few passages that are true "scripture" that is breathed directly by Yah through a highly anointed spokesman {prophet}

“You are constantly in my thoughts and my prayers

“I know you will come out the other side of this stronger in your faith and relationship with Yah PROVIDED you constantly examine yourself and your beliefs and deal with sin and error”

I was surprised myself when Yah expressed Himself through me so directly and forcibly – I understand Him to say to me that His patience has run out with regard to the lies about the bible

Conclusion

Yah has expressed Himself very forcibly regarding the bible – calling it a corrupt book compiled by corrupt men from corrupt texts containing only a few passages of true scripture – this does NOT mean it is not a useful reference only that its correct position in the scheme of things MUST be understood clearly

 

There is a strong need on the part of most human beings to rely on group consensus as an indication of the validity of a particular position or belief and it is common for believers to cite the majority in support of a position that they are defending or arguing for.

Over the years Yah (the Almighty) has said to me on several occasions that “the majority is ALWAYS wrong”.

In 1995 I was wrestling with a critical area of doctrine where what I thought I was hearing from Yah was diametrically opposed to what the church was teaching.  I approached a man who I considered to be a highly anointed servant of Yah according to my paradigm of the time and told him what I believed Yah was showing me.

His response was to the effect of “James, I can find you 15,000 Bible School graduates and NOT one will agree with you”.

At the time that seemed like quite a heavy argument, so I went back to Yah, quite intimidated.

Yah’s response to me was that this man was correct, he COULD find 15,000 Bible School graduates that would agree with him BUT they were ALL in error.

Yah then challenged me as to whether I would go with Him and what He had taught me or go with the majority, I chose to go with Him and that is the choice I have chosen to make repeatedly since then in response to what He has taught me.

This has happened so frequently that it has now reached a point that if I find myself considering any area of teaching relating to Yah and the things of Yah that if an opinion is widely held or, in fact, a majority opinion within the body of believers then I expect to find over time that it is in error.

Thus, the minute that anyone uses an argument based on majority opinion I immediately consider the possibility that the majority opinion IS in error – Yah has said to me that this is a universal principle.

Keep in mind that through the ages there have only ever been small numbers of people who have been at some material level aligned with Yah on a reasonably consistent basis – consider Noah, Moshe {Moses}, David, Yahooshua, Shaul {Paul}, etc.

We are commanded to listen to Yah, to have a personal relationship with Him, to hear directly from Him and there are an extremely small number who do this and even most of them have some level of corruption because they have not yet achieved the required level of set-apartness {sanctification} and knowledge and experience to hear with any read degree of accuracy – remember always that there is a cacophony of FALSE voices in the spirit realm all of which are inundating us with false messages.

Conclusion

Yah’s truths are submerged by false messages, the majority are ALWAYS wrong when it comes to the things of Yah.
