PART FOUR

 "Oh shining star, son of the morning, how you have fallen from the heavens! You weakened the nations, you are cut down to the ground.
 For you have said In your heart, I will go up to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of El, and I will sit in the mount of meeting, in the sides of the north.
 I will rise over the heights of the clouds; I will be compared to the Most High.
 Yet you shall go down to Sheol, to the sides of the Pit."  Isaiah 14:12-15

 "And the Hebrews crossed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. And Saul was still in Gilgal. And all the people followed him, trembling.
 And he waited seven days, according to the set time with Samuel. But Samuel had not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
 And Saul said, Bring near to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings. And he offered up the burnt offering.
 And it happened, as soon as he finished the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came. And Saul went out to meet him, and to bless him.
 And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattering from me, and you did not come in the days set out, and the Philistines were gathering at Michmash,
 then I said, Now the Philistines will come down to me to Gilgal, and I have not sweetened the face of Yahweh; and I forced myself, and offered a burnt offering.
 And Samuel said to Saul, You have acted foolishly that you have not kept the command of Yahweh your Elohim which He commanded you. For now Yahweh would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.
 But now your kingdom shall not stand. Yahweh has sought out for Himself a man according to His own heart, and Yahweh has appointed him as leader over His people. For you have not kept that which Yahweh commanded you."  2 Samuel 13:7-15

What would these two passages have in common?  Both describe fallen leaders.  The first describes the fallen Arch Angel Heylel, also known as Satan. (Adversary)

  The second describes the  first physical King over Israel, Saul.  Both fell because of iniquity.  Both broke covenant commands given by Almighty Yahweh! 

Saul was told to wait seven days for Samuel. 

 "And you will go before me to Gilgal. And, behold! I will come down to you to offer burnt offerings, to sacrifice peace offerings. You will wait seven days until I come to you and make known to you what you shall do.
 And it happened when he turned his back to go from Samuel, Yahweh changed him with another heart. And all these signs came on that day."  1 Samuel 10:8-9

King Saul fell because he failed to obey the directive of Yahweh's Prophet, Samuel!  He was told to wait at Gilgal seven days.  He was there as he was told to be, but, he did a very rash thing!  He offered up sacrifices, the burnt offerings and the peace offerings that he had no instructions to do!  He failed to obey Yahweh completely. 

There are striking parallels in the Bible between good and evil. 

King Saul continued in his disobedience as we see in 1 Samuel 15

 "And Samuel said to Saul, Yahweh sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. And now listen to the voice of the words of Yahweh.
 So says Yahweh of Hosts, I will visit Amalek with what he did to Israel, how he set himself against him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
 Now go, and you shall strike Amalek and destroy all that he has. And you shall have no pity on him, and you shall put to death all from man to woman, from little one to suckling, from ox to sheep, from camel to ass."  1 Samuel 15:1-3

Given another opportunity to keep Yahweh's commands, Saul again failed!

  "And Samuel came to Saul. And Saul said to him, Blessed are you of Yahweh. I have risen to do the Word of Yahweh.
 And Samuel said, What then is this bleating of the flock in my ears, and the sound of the herd that I hear?
 And Saul said, They have brought them from Amalek, because the people had pity on the best of the flock, and of the herd, in order to sacrifice to Yahweh your Elohim. And the rest we have exterminated.
 And Samuel said to Saul, Stop, and I will declare to you that which Yahweh spoke to me tonight. And he said to him, Speak.
 And Samuel said, Were you not, even you, little in your own eyes before becoming leader of the tribes of Israel? And Yahweh anointed you as king over Israel.
 And Yahweh sent you on the way, and said, Go, and exterminate the sinners, Amalek; and fight against them until they finish them.
 Then why did you not listen to the voice of Yahweh? Yes, you flew on the spoil, and did you not do evil in the eyes of Yahweh.
 And Saul said to Samuel, I did obey the voice of Yahweh, and I went in the way which Yahweh sent me, and brought Agag the king of Amalek, and I exterminated Amalek.
 And the people took from the spoil of the flock, and the first of the herd, that devoted, to sacrifice to Yahweh your Elohim in Gilgal.
 And Samuel said, Does Yahweh delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of Yahweh? Behold! Obeying is better than sacrifice; to give attention is better than the fat of rams.
 For the sin of rebellion is as witchcraft; insolence is both iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the Word of Yahweh, so He has rejected you from being king."   1 Samuel 15:13-23

Saul was rejected as King over Israel.  Yahweh selects another individual to be King over His people Israel, David, a man after His own heart.

Another comparison can be found in the following passages:

 "And war occurred in Heaven, Michael and his angels making war against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels made war,
 but they did not have strength, nor yet was place found for them in Heaven.
 And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent being called devil, and, Satan; he deceiving the whole habitable world was cast out onto the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."   Revelation  12:7-9

 "And the Spirit of Yahweh departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Yahweh terrified him.
 And Saul's servants said to him, Behold, now an evil spirit from Elohim is terrifying you.
 Please let our master say to your servants before you, let them seek out a man who knows how to play on the harp. And it shall be, when the evil spirit from Elohim is upon you, then he shall play with his hand, and it shall be well with you.

 And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from Elohim came mightily upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as he did day by day. And Saul had his spear in his hand;
 and Saul cast the spear; for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David avoided out of his presence twice.
 And Saul was afraid of David, because Yahweh was with him, and was departed from Saul."  1 Samuel 18:10-12

When the Spirit of Yahweh departs from an individual that once knew and used His name, an evil spirit takes its place.  King Saul continued to know and even use Yahweh's name, but, things had changed for King Saul.  Instead of a good Spirit from Yahweh, he was troubled with an evil spirit from Satan. 

The war in heaven also depicts an Angel of Light turning to darkness.  Satan rebelled against Yahweh in the heavens.  The passage in Ezekiel:

 "You were the anointed cherub that covers, and I had put you in the holy heights of El, where you were. You walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, until iniquity was found in you."    Ezekiel 28:14-15

Remember, Saul also was a good young man, none better in Israel when he was selected to be King!  Heylel was perfect!  He was beautiful!  Until?  Until iniquity was found within both of them.  The evil side then came forth.

We are in a time frame known as the "last days!"  Events prior to Yahshua's return contain an element called the falling away or apostasia in the Greek NT. 

Satan fell away from Yahweh and the Heavenly Kingdom or domain.  The dwelling place of angels was no longer Satan's home.  He was cast out because of his rebellion.  He was rejected because of his iniquity against Yahweh.  Likewise King Saul was rejected and cast out of his leadership position.  Yahweh supplanted the fallen king with another, King David.

So it is with the individuals/groups using Yahweh's name and Yahshua's name.  Will it matter to Almighty Yahweh and Yahshua the Messiah if you use their names and sin while doing so?  Let me refresh your memory on this:

"Not everyone who says to Me, Master, Master, will enter into the kingdom of Heaven, but the ones who do the will of My Father in Heaven.
 Many will say to Me in that day, Master, Master, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name do many works of power?
 And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, those working lawlessness!" {Psalm. 6:8}  Matthew 7:17-23

What we have seen here at Truth On The Net Dot Com, are a variety of religious groups and individuals, that actually fall into the exact category as did Heylel and King Saul.  They start out on the good side, but somewhere along the way they deviate, they violate Yahweh's commandments.  They weaken Yahweh's way. They not only do this themselves, but teach others to also violate Yahweh's way by their teachings and actions.

 "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one yothe or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law, until all things be accomplished.
 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
 For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven."  Matthew 5:18-20

This passage by no means grants anyone who teaches men to break, to violate, any of Yahweh's commandments, entrance into the Kingdom of Yahshua when he returns!

As Doc published recently on his Enough is Enough article, we have volumes of information concerning groups and individuals who attack good people like King Saul attacked David.  David did nothing to provoke King Saul to try and kill him several times!  David behaved himself wisely in all of his dealings with King Saul, and the people.  King Saul later recognized this kindness, and left off from pursuing David.  You will learn this lesson eventually.  Perhaps you will learn it the hard way, as did King Saul? 

 John answered and said, "A man is able to receive nothing unless it has been given to him from Heaven."  John 3:27

 "And you shall be driven from men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field. You shall be fed with the grass like oxen, and seven times shall pass over you until you know that the Most High is Ruler in the kingdom of men, and that He gives it to whomever He desires."  Daniel 4:32

 "Do not lift up your horn on high; do not speak with a stiff neck.
 For exaltations are not from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert;
 but Yahweh is the judge; He puts down this one and lifts up this other."  Psalm 75:5-7

So now!  If you are attacking good people like Saul attacked David, you are finished!  If you are attacking anyone that Yahweh Himself set up for His purpose, you are finished!  Satan was finished!  Saul was finished!  You get the picture?

The reasons (and there are many) that we here at Truth On The Net Dot Com do not advocate joining some (most) religious groups, vary in scope.  From outright paganism to false presentation of Biblical truth, the reasons are valid.  We have found people giving themselves off to be righteous, but??? on further examination!!! they are hypocrites.  They do not live according to the word of Yahweh.

We are giving good viable information here to help you make good informed decisions regarding your salvation!  If you are not sure?  Check things out!  In the parable of the talents (Luke 19:11-27) we see an interesting summation concerning what to do with your talents or even talent.  Many times people know they must tithe to Almighty Yahweh, they just don't know where to send their tithe money.  Yahshua says:

'Then why didn't you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?'  Luke 19:23

The least you can do is save it in the bank, try and find the place really doing the work of Yahweh and send it there. 

Remember!  Good people do not attack, only evil people attack! Good people are attacked by evil people because they have an EVIL SPIRIT just like King Saul.  They have the evil spirit of Satan the Devil!
