"The fool shall be no
more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful.
For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to
practice profaneness, and to utter error against Yahweh, to make empty the soul
of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
And the instruments of the churl are evil: he devises wicked devices to
destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
But the noble devises noble things; and in noble things shall he
continue." Isaiah 32:5-7
Erroneous teachings abound in the religious system today. From changing the day of rest from the seventh day of the week to the first, religion seemingly follow their own thoughts and ideas instead of Abba Yahweh's.
"You shall not add to the Word which I command you, nor take from it, to keep the commandments of Yahweh your Elohim which I command you." Deuteronomy 4:2
How many doctrines/teachings from the Bible have been added to or taken away from? The names of the Father, Yahweh, and the Son, Yahshua, constitutes one of the most egregious errors that can be found. Coupled with the eradication of the dietary laws, the religions of the world are certainly removed from the plan given to Adam and the human race.
What about a restoration? Yes, this is what is this earth needs. But! The restoration message will be comprised of what? What set of instructions should be followed to once again be aligned with the original intentions of the Creator, Yahweh? Can we follow a potpourri of teachings that make the people feel good, but does in no way convict them of sin? Can you pick and choose what commandments you will keep and then claim you are following Yahweh's way of life?
"If any man
teaches a different doctrine, and consents not to sound words, even the words of
our Savior Yahshua the Messiah, and to the doctrine which is according to
righteousness;
he is puffed up, knowing nothing, but doting about questionings and
disputes of words, whereof comes envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth, supposing
that righteousness is a way of gain." 1 Timothy 6:3-5
Doctrine different to what? What sound words? The words of our Savior? What doctrine is righteous? You see; there is a lot to know about this passage of scripture. Also: Who are these men that practice these things? Men that are puffed up? Question/challenge the words of Yahweh? Filled with envy? Strife? Railings? Evil surmisings ? (evil suspicions) Meddlers? Corrupted in mind? Deprived of truth? The explanation to all of these questions can be easily resolved. Everyone and anyone who teaches outside of the Biblical parameters! These individuals are puffed up and know nothing about the plan of Salvation!
And the brethren
immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who when they were
come thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they
received the word with all readiness of the mind,
examining the Scriptures
daily, whether these things were so. Acts
17:10-11
These people were different. That listened to what was said and then examined the scriptures for authenticity. Was Paul preaching the right things? Was Paul preaching directly from the Sacred Word of Yahweh? Obviously the Bereans wanted to find out! Shouldn't you?
You shall keep far away from a false matter. And do not kill the innocent and the righteous; for I will not justify the wicked. Exodus 23:7
How can you kill the innocent? How can you kill the righteous? Is this only a physical application? Or! Can this be applied spiritually? You can kill with words! False teaching equals a false matter. The innocent can be seen in this passage:
Verily I say unto
you, Except you turn, and become as little children, you shall in no wise enter
into the kingdom of heaven.
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is
the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives me:
But whoso shall cause one of these
little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that
a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in
the depth of the sea." Matthew 18:2-6
"And the instruments of the churl are evil: he devises wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaks right." Isaiah 32:6
The Roman Catholic Ch--ch has done irreparable damage to the true teachings of Yahshua and the Apostles. They have certainly added to the word of Yahweh and they have taken away the true Way of life. Catholicism continues to damage the truth of Yahweh's word. Remember; this religion killed and persecuted the Apostolic Assembly, and continues in the same vein even now. The mystery religion works secretly behind the scenes to perpetuate evil against those in opposition to their teachings! The RCC has great influence on the world's governments, as per Revelation 17. The RCC and it's spin offs, i.e. the Lutherans, et. al., are in false doctrine no matter what anyone says. They teach lying words to their followers.
These are springs without
water, and mists driven by a storm; for whom the blackness of darkness hath been
reserved.
For, uttering great swelling words of vanity, they entice in the lusts of
the flesh, by lasciviousness, those who are just escaping from them that live in
error;
promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of
corruption; for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he also brought into
bondage. 2 Peter 17-19
When people are looking for real truth, they are going to find a lot of obstacles between them and the absolute truth. Satan has laid a lot of deceptive stumbling blocks to keep the human race from finding salvation. Worse than this, is those who know some of Yahweh's truth but mix it with corruption. This is accomplished by their ignorance of the true message. Some believe it is ok to have multiple wives, and this is not exclusive of the Mormons either! Some believe that the blessings from Yahweh are in the form of material things, and they gather worldly possessions by the score. Would Yahshua do something like this?
People want to have a better life physically and spiritually. They look for opportunities to improve their lot in life. Along with this comes the societal parasites, those who are sons of Belial, totally worthless. These want everything, they want it all, but will do very little for it. They take advantage of a person's necessities, both physical and spiritual. Always looking for an advantage, they will exploit the innocent for their own benefit. This is especially true if they receive tithes from the seekers of truth, and give them false teachings in return!
"That we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;" Ephesians 4:14
"And it shall be in that day, the prophets shall be ashamed, each one of his vision when he prophesies, and they shall not wear a hairy garment to deceive." Zechariah 13:4
Eventually, (perhaps after all of their worldly goods has been consumed by these false teachers/groups,) the people will see they have truly been deceived, and want to escape these evil people. David realized King Saul had evil intentions towards him. He knew in his heart, survival meant leaving Saul's household. After being pursued for some time, David had to make a decision. He decided to flee to another area. The area he selected was controlled by the Philistines.
"And David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: there is nothing better for me than that I should escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me any more in all the borders of Israel: so shall I escape out of his hand." 1 Samuel 27:1
Are you sensing something drastically wrong with the group/organization or individual you have aligned yourself with? Are they only exploiting you? Are they parasitizing you for their own comfort and gain? Do they fall into the following category?
" And the Word of Yahweh came
to me, saying,
Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to
them, to the shepherds, So says the Sovereign Yahweh: Woe to the shepherds of
Israel who are feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock?
You eat the fat and cloth yourselves with the wool, you sacrifice the fat
ones, and you do not feed the flock.
You have not made the weak strong; and you have not healed the sick, and
you have not bound up the broken. And the banished have not been brought back,
and you have not sought the lost, but you rule them with force and with
harshness." Ezekiel 34:2-4
Yours in Yahshua, Hawke
