Mat 23:2  Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:

 

Even today this prophetic statement rings true.

 

Act 23:6 Now Sha’ul, perceiving that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council, “Men, brothers, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee…

 

How do Christians reconcile this passage of scriptures?  If Paul was "inspired" by the "Holy Spirit" then either he told the truth and his IS a Pharisee by his own testimony or a liar. Does the "Holy Spirit" grant that an Apostle be allowed to lie?

 

Rom 3:7  For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory…

 

A lie is still a lie.  The problem that I personally see with the teachings of Paul vs the Messiah is that while the Messiah taught us not to judge one another, everything I read in Paul is judgmental and a Pharisee.

 

 A clear example of how Paul is still preaching as a Pharisee is seen here:

 

Mat 9:10 And it came to be, as Yehoshua sat at the table in the house, that see, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His taught ones.

Mat 9:11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His taught ones, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

 

1Co 5:11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone called ‘a brother,’ if he is one who whores, or greedy of gain, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler – not even to eat with such a one.

 

Mat 9:12 And Yehoshua hearing this, said to them, “Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.

Mat 9:13 “But go and learn what this means, ‘I desire compassion and not offering.’ For I did not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners.”

 

When we put the teachings side by side, it’s clear to all except the many “Christian Pharisee’s” in the world today that are a student of this Pharisee.  What does our heavenly Father tell us in his Torah?  Let’s break it down, First we know:

 

Deu 4:2 “Do not add to the Word which I command you, and do not take away from it, so as to guard the commands of Yahweh your Elohim which I am commanding you.

 

Isn’t it ironic that they took his name YAHWEH out of the very verse that says not to alter it? We are not to add or take away from the Torah.  This specifically means the book of Deuteronomy, not the entire collection of books known as the bible.  We can be assured of that here:

 

Deu 4:8 “And what great nation is there that has such laws and righteous right-rulings like all this Torah which I set before you this day?

 

Since Paul wasn’t written until thousands of years later, we know the two are not connected in the command so continue with me please:

 

Deu 4:9 “Only, guard yourself, and guard your life diligently, lest you forget the Words your eyes have seen, and lest they turn aside from your heart all the days of your life. And you shall make them known to your children and your grandchildren.

 

How many Christians have forgotten the words of this book?  We carry it around day and night and yet, most don’t know or care what it says and treat it with disregard as if it’s something written only for that tribe in the wilderness.

 

Exo 12:49 “There is one Torah for the native-born and for the stranger who sojourns among you.”

 

So, if you consider yourself a person serving our Father, that one Torah is for you too. Now what is the “Law of Moses” as Christians call it?  You see, most people want to say that it is 613 laws that no one is able to keep but what does the Torah say?

 

Deu 4:13 “And He made known to you His covenant which He commanded you to do, the Ten Words, and He wrote them on two tablets of stone.

 

The TEN COMMANDMENTS are the covenant!  So, Just like the Messiah preached, if you want to enter into life, guard the commandments!  How simple is that?  The sign of the “Church of the Dragon” is the church that has bitterly fought against the 10 commandments.  THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH!  Every pastor that preaches against the Sabbath is unknowingly or willingly a part of the false church!

 

Rev 12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to fight with the remnant of her seed, those guarding the commands of Elohim and possessing the witness of Yehoshua Messiah.

 

YOU my dear reader may be a part of that very church.  It is a bitter pill to think that all these years, WE have been the false church.  I do not tell you this to accuse you but to inform you.  Who will be saved?

 

Rev 14:12 Here is the endurance of the set-apart ones, here are those guarding the commands of Elohim and the belief of Yehoshua.

 

Those who guard the commandments are the ones set apart for our heavenly father.  The only reason that the church of the dragon refuses to accept the truth is over ONE issue, THE SABBATH.  For at least a thousand years Rome has dictated to you what is scriptures and told you what you are to consider, “the way of  [Yahweh]  יהוה” but many do not even know his name and probably call him “GOD” or “LORD GOD ALMIGHTY”.  But that was not the name given to him and for thousands of years, we have not had access to the truth.

 

A common cry of the “Church of the Dragon” is that it has been this way for 2000 years but that’s not true either. The scriptures were not even canonized until 325 by anti-Semites at the Council of Nicaea.   Then for another thousand years people were either not taught to read or the words were dictated from pulpits in churches.  Emperor Constantine made sure that pagan Easter, Christmas and the Day of the Sun were “harmonized” into scriptures and burned or destroyed many books that were being distributed that didn’t suite his doctrine.

 

In 1440, German inventor Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing press and the Gutenberg bible was distributed.

It was not lawful for people to even read the scriptures for themselves.  These bibles were distributed to Church’s with a Germanic names, which is where the name “God” comes from, not Hebrew, Not Greek which used, “Theos”.

 

In 1556, The Geneva (the New Testament completed in 1556 and published, while the entire work was finished in 1560) Bible that the “Puritans” brought on the Mayflower to America still read Passover.  It was in fact the Geneva Bible that King James hated so much that inspired him to authorize his own version with his official stamp of approval.  The margin notes in the Geneva Bible were written by John Calvin and those who kept the Geneva Bible were called, Calvinist, Protestants and Puritans.

 

Being translated by “Protestants” during a time of persecution in England, the translators converged in Geneva, Switzerland, where they were able to arrange publication of their work.  Fleeing the persecution of Roman Catholic Queen  Mary I (18 February 1516 – died 17 November 1558)  in England, who would not tolerate the Protestant Geneva Bible (which she only lived to see the New Testament version of) proclaimed the Pope an “antichrist” in its commentary notes of Revelation.

 

The Geneva Bible was where John Calvin first stated that the “Dragon of Revelation” was in fact the Roman Catholic Church. So this understanding is nothing new and still we keep its cannon except the “Apocrypha” that was removed in the 19th century by American Bishops! Note: The Catholic church still considers these books inspired.

 

 In 1604 there was a ruling from the Hampton Court Conference between the King James I and various clergymen.  An agreement was reached that there should be a revised English version of the Bible without the side notes of the Geneva Bible. Forty-seven scholars began the revision to create the King James Version which used the Tyndale, “Bishop’s Bible” and Geneva Bibles English text, not the Greek or Hebrew Text.

 

In 1611,  King James’s Bible came along and continued to alter all the names (except Satan) and removing words like “Sabbath” at key locations in scriptures to fit his false doctrine.  Examining Greek text, we find that the word “Sabbath” is removed in many locations after the resurrection.

 

(Mar 16:2) (Mar 16:9) (Luk 18:12) (Luk 24:1) (Joh 20:1) (Joh 20:19) (Act 20:7) (1Co 16:2) (Heb 4:9)

And (Mat 28:1) Sabbath is removed the second instance of its use.

 

So then people had Germanic based deity names (In a Hebrew based scripture) in bibles from English versions revised in the KJV but it was the Geneva Bible is what was brought to the Americas.   So again we see that the words of scriptures were altered and removed by scribes and translators.  Can anybody say Babylon? The prophet Jeremiah knew this and penned:

 

 Jer 8:7 “Even a stork in the heavens knows her appointed times. And a turtledove, and a swallow, and a thrush observe the time of their coming. But My people do not know the right-ruling of Yahweh.

Jer 8:8 “How do you say, ‘We are wise, and the Torah of Yahweh is with us’? But look, the false pen of the scribe has worked falsehood.

 

Ironically scribes again removing the name of Yahweh in a place where the text reads the scribes mistranslate scriptures.

 

Jer 8:9 “The wise shall be put to shame, they shall be broken down and caught. See, they have rejected the Word of Yahweh, so what wisdom do they have?

 

The fact is it has not been since the invention of the internet and the distribution of E-Sword [1998] and other bible software, which everyday people have had access to what is written.  The history… has hidden the truth for a thousand years by knowing clergymen.  Until we all had computers that could search key words and free access to the information that has been obscured in foreign languages, we simply did not know.

 

NOW we know the truth so what does the Torah say?

 

Deu 4:23 “Guard yourselves, lest you forget the covenant of Yahweh your Elohim which He made with you, and shall make for yourselves a carved image in the form of whatever Yahweh your Elohim has forbidden you.

 

It’s too late for that, even the modern day English speaking “Jews” speak of the Germanic name in scriptures.

 

Deu 4:28 “And there you shall serve mighty ones, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell.

 

Christians bow before wood and stone crosses and statues all the time.

 

Deu 4:29 “But from there you shall seek Yahweh your Elohim, and shall find, when you search for Him with all your heart1 and with all your being.

 

When will we find the truth?  When we search for him, with ALL our heart and all our being.  So the truth isn’t something that is readily available, we must search for it.  It’s not just a gift that’s tossed around, we must pray for it and search for it and ask.

 

Deu 4:30 “In your distress, when all these words shall come upon you in the latter days, then you shall return to יהוה your Elohim and shall obey His voice.

 

Or so we hope you will but many of the Church of the Dragon will war against the true word. 

 

Deu 11:26 ‘See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse:

Deu 11:27 the blessing, when you obey the commands of  Yahweh your Elohim which I command you today;

Deu 11:28 and the curse, if you do not obey the commands of Yahweh your Elohim, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other mighty ones which you have not known.

 

Read carefully the curse, it say that if you do not obey the Ten commandments, you are cursed.  Now let’s examine what brother Paul said:

 

Gal 3:10 For as many as are of works of Torah are under the curse, for it has been written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all that has been written in the book of the Torah, to do them.”

 

Now the closest to this is here:

 

Deu 27:26 ‘Cursed is he who does not establish the Words of this Torah.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amĕn!’

 

Can you see where he added to the Torah?  It does not say “all that has been written”.  What many consider to be a apostle of Christ ADDED to the words of the Torah.  The curse was if you DO NOT OBEY the COMMANDMENTS and there are only Ten Commandments, regardless of what Jews speak of.

 

Deu 4:13 “And He made known to you His covenant which He commanded you to do, the Ten Words, and He wrote them on two tablets of stone.

 

That being said, is enough for me to recognize that Paul was in fact a false apostle.  I challenge any reader to find the words written by apostle Paul in the Torah.

 

1Co 5:3 For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged the one who did this, as though I were present.

1Co 5:12 For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Do you not judge those who are inside?

 

Mat 7:1  “Do not judge, lest you be judged.

 

1Co 6:1  Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

 

In the book of Acts He is asked if he will go before Jerusalem to be judged in the temple.  Did he practice what he preached?  Note: At the time, Nero was Caesar.

 

Act 25:9  But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?

 

So he's asked if he will "go before the saints".

 

Act 25:10  Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I

ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very

well knowest.

 

We can clearly see that he didn't go back to Jerusalem.  What happened to his earlier account?  He said,

 

Act 21:13  Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? For I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Iesus.

 

It's historically recorded that he died in Rome and so we see this is a false statement also!

 

Mar 8:15 And He was warning them, saying, “Mind! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herodes.”

 

Act 13:1  And in the assembly that was at Antioch ... with Herodes the district ruler, and Sha’ul.

 

How long will people ignore Paul's own testimony?  If we know the Roman Church is the Dragon, how come we keep it’s canon?

 

Shalom,

Footnote: 1The only sign of YAHWEH setting us apart, the only sign of the everlasting covenant, is His Sabbaths, one of them being the seventh day Sabbath. This is repeated in Ezek. 20:12 & 20.
