"Stand
by the roads, and look,
and ask for
the ancient paths,
where the
good way is; and walk in it,
and
find rest for your souls.”
_-
Jeremiah 6:16 ESV

In the News: Many
Christians
are
part of a fast
growing global movement who say it is the
ancient ways, the historic, and the Biblical ways that matter
most (Jer.6:16). That is where I come in I have spent my life
pealing away the layers of traditions the has been added on to our
CREATOR'S Wisdom, - like pealing away the layers of an onion to
get to the core of pure truth. YHWH is eternal and HIS Wisdom is
also eternal, isn't it interesting, we grow spiritually by
embracing the ancient - and timeless. (Click
news icon for story.)
Seeking the Ancient Path could be the theme of my
book and website. A
thinking person has to
ponder for a moment, what was the Prophet Jeremiah referring to?
What ancient path? The time of Jeremiah's teachings was about 627-580 BCE.
Israel was at the end of 4 consecutive GODless kings.
The people prideful in themselves were suffering from an ancient
form of liberalism, let’s do what the rest of the world does, stay far
away from what GOD teaches, and do what is good in your own mind.
To me, it seems as if the Prophet Jeremiah was saying that this
new-enlightened thinking is corrupt and the people should look to the
original, ancient ways for their spiritual wisdom. Jeremiah was not
alone, other Prophets also talked of a restoration of the faith,
Isa.40:3, 58:12, 62:10; Psa.68:5. Unfortunately
the stiff-necked people did not want to repent or listen to their
righteous Prophets (Jer.ch.2-25), and YHWH used the swords of the
Babylonians to teach them a hash lesson (Jer.ch.52; Bk of Lamentations).
(There should be a lesson in there for today’s GODless society
and it’s moral breakdown.) Knowing
that YHWH does not change (Isa.46:9-10), one can’t help but wonder,
what ancient path? Can we
find it today?
The Essenes, the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls,
was the religious order that John the Baptist and Yahshua/Jesus had ties
to. They were the
serious Bible scholars, the true Believers, and the faithful watchers of
the day. They were wise to
the Messianic prophecies and they were making preparations.
To the Essenes, righteousness meant a person also had to be right
in his heart, he had to be right with his brother, and lastly he had to
be right with GOD.
The Essenes formed a few hundred years after the Prophet
Jeremiah, and they most likely took his words to heart.
They felt that the rabbinical Sadducees and the Pharisees had
become more like political parties then a religious order.
They considered that priesthood corrupt, and the Temple worship
was not pure in YHWH’s Spirit and Truth - it had become ritualistic.
It suffered from many of the same problems we have today in our
worship centers; it had become ritualistic and overblown with pomp and
ceremony. It had become
corrupted by the leaders using the heresy of Nicolaitanism (putting a
religious leader between YHWH
and the people Rev.2:15). They
felt that the people were misled and lost, righteousness has been
reduced to mere ceremonialism, and that the rabbis were condemned for
their corruption. They saw
a corrupted Sanhedrin which totality conquered the common people,
keeping them on a tight leash, while the rich were treated with favors.
The Essenes would have nothing to do with it.
Seeing all this around 200 B.C.E. they decided to remove
themselves from the mainstream religious society and prepare themselves
for the “great event,” the arrival of the long awaited Messiah.

Now here is something to get you thinking, do
you see what happened? The
Essenes rejected rabbinical Judaism and returned to the roots of their
faith. The thinking person
has to contemplate, what did they return to?
Oftentimes when I talk to other clergyman about
the Biblical Holy Days, their common knee-jerk response is, “…why
do you want to go backwards? Christians look ahead to a new Covenant.”
I say, “but I am looking to the future, and to understand
the future and final redemption of the world, one must know and
understand the (Biblical) past.”
If one reads the New Testament, then you learn that Christ and
His disciples were also religious reformers, I call them protestant -
protesting - Jews. It was
about 600 years after the Prophet Jeremiah, and Yahshua also criticized
the Judaism of His day, and pointed to another spiritual path - the
restoration of the Way in the wilderness.
As a student of Scriptures, one has to ponder, what did they want
to reform or restore their religion into?
What was the ancient path that they were trying to get the
faithful back to?
- “…Why do you
also transgress the commandment of GOD by your tradition?”
- - Matthew 15:3
I
often jokingly write, “Just because I gave up on the pope, doesn’t necessarily mean I’m gonna jump in
bed with the Jews – so to speak.” What
I mean by that is that it took over 25 years, to claw, kick, and crawl,
my way thorough all the mishegoss of the Christian religions and
traditions to get to the Messianic Jerusalem Church – and they did not
make it easy! Today’s Messianic-Judaism
is a branch of the original Jerusalem church we generally call Judaism.
I applaud their belief in the Messiah, but as Gospel readers know
the Jews have their religious problems, and they bring some of those
problems over into Messianic Judaism. Discussing reform issues are always problematic, when I raise
the topic, there some people who need a seat belt and some others who
need smelling salts, but a thinking person, honest to their faith,
cannot help but wonder about it. The
problem is, as Gospel readers, we know Yahshua warned the religious
establishment (the Pharisee and Orthodox rabbis) that there will be
reform issues they must face, and if they do not resolve them, then He
(Yahshua) will reform them sometime in the future (Mat.3:7, 5:20,15:2-9,
23:1-36; Luk.11:37-54, 8:9-14; Jno.8:44).
One would think that the Messianic/Christian faithful would be
looking ahead to the Messianic restoration of YHWH’s Ancient Path, but
the dark side has been busy.
“You
go your way, I’ll go YAHWEH!”
The beginning of Biblical understanding is, as
always, with the name first.
The Hebrew words for “ancient path,” is netivot
‘olam, meaning “perpetual path.”
In the Biblical context it would mean the “perpetual way of
faith,” specifically, YHWH’S eternal Way of Faith.”
YHWH’s Ancient Path is HIS Way of Faith.
We know our CREATOR, YHWH, does not change, and HIS Way of Faith
is revealed through HIS Covenants
with humanity. YHWH’s
Covenants are the bricks that make up HIS Ancient Path, and His Heavenly
Covenant Rites available to a-l-l HIS earthly believers were the same
from Adam & Eve to Enoch, then to Noah, to Abraham, and on to Moses;
and from Moses, via the Hebrew people, on to our time.
YAHWEH has a Covenant with all humanity, anybody with a belly
button, and those who chose to walk YHWH righteous Ancient Path are
entitled to the protections and benefits of HIS Covenant Rites.
The spiritual hint to YHWH’s Ancient Path is Melechedisk.
YHWH’s ancient Covenant Rites, were, and still are, governed by
the Order of Melechedisk,
and they are based on love, honesty, and understanding (Heb.6:20).
Simply put, if YHWH’s Covenants are the bricks of HIS ancient
righteous path, then the Golden
Rule, which is the height of spiritual maturity, is the mortar that
binds it together. These
are the original and true ancient Covenant Rites of YHWH, they are
forever and they do not change.
YHWH wants the Faith to walk HIS Path knowledgeable
and with confidence. As part of our Covenant Rites, the
faithful are entitled to the use of what I call Spiritual
Power-Tools use for Spiritual Protection and communication with YHWH
Kingdom. With the advent of the Messiah communication with the
Heavenly Powers became easier - almost supercharged our Spiritual
Power-Tools. YHWH,
via the Holy Spirit, now empowers the Believer directly with HIS
Spiritual Power-Tools. In
Daniel ch.10, the Archangel Gabriel wanted to visit Daniel to relay a
message from YHWH, but he prevented from that task by Satan’s dark
angels. He had to fight the dark forces for 21 days, and only
succeeded when the Archangel Michael came to help.
Here we get a hint, that at times (before the Messiah), it
wasn’t always easy for the Righteous Powers to communicate to the Faithful
on earth, but now that has all changed.
Prayer, Baptism, Blessing, Anointing, Laying on of Hands, are all
ways for the Believer to communicate with the Heavenly Powers.
The Spiritual Power-Tools are important defensive tools because
the faithful are in the middle of a raging spiritual war, unfortunately
most churches do not teach the laity how to use them.
Satan knows, “to
lead an untrained people to war is to throw them away,” and he
has been busy corrupting YHWH’s Knowledge. I
believe YHWH wants HIS faithful, those who follow HIS Ancient Path, to know how to use them.
So where do we begin to find this ancient wisdom?
~A
Précis History~
“101” on my book and website name means
just the simple basics, meaning I teach about the roots of the
original truths we hold dear. The
focus of my spiritual studies is to remove the layers of mans traditions
to get to the core of the original ancient truth, that is how I was lead
to YHWH’s Ancient Path. Some
have likened to peeling the layers off an onion to get to the perfect
inner core. My words are
simple, but the message is fast moving and dense with information.
I
call myself chronicler extraordinaire because I like to start at the
beginning…
The spiritual Knowledge of YHWH’s ancient
Covenants and Righteous Path was passed along
from Adam & Eve through the righteous linage of Seth, and on to
Noah. From Noah, for a
while, all the succeeding generations knew the same knowledge of
YHWH’s Ancient Path, which was outlined in HIS Universal
Covenant with Noah, that is why many religions reference Heaven as a
reward for good behavior in one’s earthly life.
After a while, during the time of the Tower of Babel (a temple
dedicated to Satan), the people began to drift from Noah’s righteous
teaching of YHWH. Noah’s
son Shem, stayed on the righteous Ancient Path and it passed on to
Abraham, and on to the patriarch’s era.
After YHWH freed HIS (Hebrew) people from their Egyptian bondage
HE reestablished the knowledge of HIS Ancient Path and Covenants with
Moses. During the time of
Moses, and for the next 450 years or so, YHWH directly ruled Israel,
until the people rejected HIS rule and wanted an earthly King.
In the Bible, this was the time of the Judges, and YHWH made it
very clear what Path HE wanted HIS people to follow.
I make the argument that when the Messiah returns He will rule
like His FATHER ruled, as it was during the time of the Judges.
- "Liberty means responsibility,
- that is why people hate it."
It may startle some of the faithful to hear that
YHWH did not begin a religion (Jam.1:19-27).
During the time from Moses to King Saul, the Israelites lived
under a theocracy: meaning YHWH, our CREATOR, according to the Order of
Melchizedek, directly governed them.
Under Moses, the Israelites were one people,
subdivided into twelve tribes according to their fathers’ houses,
originally conceived from the descendants of the twelve sons of Isaacs
son Jacob (Gen.49:16, 28; Exo.24:4).
After wandering for forty years in the desert, standing at the
gates of the promised land, Moses hands over leadership to his faithful
second in command, Joshua to lead the Israelites in their new promised
land (Deu.34:9).
Joshua was a strong political leader,
and generally speaking, the people did obey during his lifetime, and
during the lifetime of the leaders that he had trained (Book of Joshua).
After Joshua and his following leaders grew old and died, the
people started to drift from YHWH’s Ancient Path and things began to
go wrong. The Israelites
began to abandon their righteous teachings; every man did what seemed
right in his own mind. They
started making idols, worshiping pagan gods, and transgressed the Laws
given by YAHWEH.
During this time the Israelites lived under a
theocracy – a real theocracy. There
was no centralized earthly authority. There were no men-in-black.
There was no central high church, synagogue or high priest
rendering moral decisions. The
national leadership came from individuals called Judges; they were
special people who were called out by YAHWEH to guide the people in HIS ways, feelings, and opinions.
The Book of Judges, and the two Books of the
Prophet Samuel, recount the Israelites up and down relationship
with YAHWEH as their KING.
These people through disobedience to YAHWEH
would fall captive to surrounding pagan kings.
Then they would repent and cry out to YAHWEH
for help and HE would raise up a leader
to free them. After a time
they would drift from the righteous path, then they were punished again
and saved again, and punished and saved, again and again this process
was repeated. Through a
series of men and women Judges they received their guidance from YAHWEH,
and they corrected the Israelites each time.
Even with all the problems these 450 years were probably the most
peaceful years for the nation of Israel.
YAHWEH practices tough love,
and uses the “three strikes you’re out, a-l-l the way out,”
technique in disciplining HIS Children of Israel:
First used is the love-oriented discipline - reasoning and removal of
privileges. Two: The
power-oriented discipline - hitting and yelling (lighting and thunder).
Lastly: When the people did not respond to diplomacy, they
suffered dreadfully and died - by disease, drought, or at the hands of
their enemies.
Two great stories come out of this time,
a story of a strong woman Judge named Deborah in Judges ch.4-5, and the
great love story of Samson and Delilah in Judges ch.13-16. The last person to rule as a Prophet was Samuel apx. 1025
B.C.E., as he grew older, the people no longer felt secure in their
system of government and asked Samuel to appoint them a human king
modeled after their pagan neighbors.
Samuel was distraught, he felt the people had rejected him.
“Liberty means responsibility, which is why people hate it.”
YAHWEH
reassured him, they have not rejected him (Samuel), but rather have
rejected YAHWEH
and HIS rule over them.
- *WARNING TO ALL HUMANITY:
- Be suspect of man’s government.
YAHWEH hears the people, so be
it - they will have their king.
But first HE
instructed Samuel to warn the people as to what having a King would do
to theirs or any society that chooses such a system.
|
"And
HE said, “This will be the behavior of the king who will reign
over you:
He will take your sons
and appoint them for his own chariots and to be his horsemen, and
some will run before his chariots.
He will appoint captains
over his thousands and captains over his fifties, will set some to
plow his ground and reap his harvest, and some to make his weapons
of war and equipment for his chariots.
He will take your
daughters to be perfumers, cooks, and bakers.
And he will take the best
of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give
them to his servants.
He will take a tenth of
your grain and your vintage, and give it to his officers and
servants.
And he will take your
male servants, your female servants, your finest young men, and
your donkeys, and put them to his work.
He will take a tenth of
your sheep. And you will be his servants.
And you will cry out in
that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves,
and the Lord will not hear you in that day.” 1Samuel
8:11-18 |
YAHWEH gave the people one final warning
as to what this type of government would do to them, and the key word is
'take.' This type of
government will always 'take' more then it gives.
Besides taking material possessions from the people, this
government also takes the spiritual away from the people.
In the previous governmental system YAHWEH
granted rights directly to all the people equally. What GOD grants, no man can take
away. Essentially what
happened here is that the people choose to put a human king between them
and their GOD.
The spiritual character of this pagan system is that the king
receives power from GOD
and then the king grants rights to his people, and YHWH hates it
(Rev.2:15). The problem is,
what the king gives, the king can take away, and this system of
government will always take more then it gives in return.
Not our CREATOR’S idea of an everlasting system, but so be
it.
Unfortunately, the people were seduced by the dark
side and because of pride,
they rejected HIS warning. The
Israelites wanted to be like their pagan neighbors’
nations, and they soon found out that it was a mistake to reject YAHWEH’S
will. HE
gave the rebellious, ungrateful, and unfaithful people the king they
cried for. The Israelites
got their first human king who was called Saul, history records him as
an inconsequential fool and a bungler, a poor substitute for the
charismatic Judges of the past, a king befitting the people who demanded
him. (This is the first
Biblical lesson on government; YHWH is in charge, and the people will
get the leaders they deserve - this lesson is still valid in today’s
governments and political leadership.)
Israel’s divorce caused a separation between
YHWH, Israel, and all humanity.
As I quoted above, YHWH prophesized of the suffering the
Israelites, and humanity in general, would have to endure under man’s
government, but to give them hope, HE also prophesied the stages leading
to the end of man’s governments.
YHWH used the Prophet Daniel to interpret a prophecy outlining
the demonic superpower human governments and the coming government of
YAHWEH. This dark system of
governess will be destroyed and YHWH’s restoration will come in the
future, the Prophet Daniel outlines it for us.
The prophecy reveals that the conquering
Messiah will destroy this entire system of human governments
(Dan.2:44). Then man’s
governments will be replaced by the restored Kingdom/Government of
YAHWEH, headed by the Messiah, as King of kings ruling all the Earth
(Dan.ch.2, and a corresponding vision in ch.7).

at all times…”

Psalms 34:1
During the Millennium rule of the Messiah, the
spiritual / moral clock will reset to as it was in the
time of the Judges. It
doesn’t mean that we will be living in tents, our technology will be
advanced, but the a-l-l the world will know the Ancient Path of YHWH,
a-l-l will know YHWH’s Holy Days, and the spiritual lessons they teach
will be the same to a-l-l humanity.
Revelation ch.17 tells us that the deceiving spirit of Babylon
infects a-l-l the world’s religions, and this will also be destroyed
with the advent of the Conquering Messiah, and the restoration of
YHWH’s ancient spiritual path. Hosea
prophesied that the divorce from YAHWEH the FATHER would be reconciled
(Hos.1:9-10).
The restoration of the Way of Faith will begin in
the home; it will be a time when the parents will once again have a
hands on relationship with YHWH, and they will once again learn to bless
their children instead of having a priest do it for them.
The people will learn to bless YHWH during their Sabbath prayers;
and together, the world’s faithful will be a blessing to the Kingdom,
instead of always looking for a blessing.
- A priest in every house,
- and an evangelist in
every community!
In the ancient time of the patriarchs the Way
of Faith was a little easier to see (Gen.ch.11-50; on to
the 2nd Book of Samuel).
During this time the Bible shows us many examples of the heads of
the household also being the priests of the family. Remember when Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son Isaac?
YHWH didn’t tell him to go to Melchizedek to accomplish the
task; Abraham had to do it himself (Gen.22:1-24).
All the patriarchs laid on of hands and blessed or bestowed
birthrights on their children, etc., they would never hire a priest to
do it for them. One of the
most famous Bible Stories, known by Jew and Christian alike, tells how
Jacob tricked his father Isaac into giving him his older brother Esau’s
firstborn birthrights (Gen.ch.27).
"Let them
first learn--to show piety at home."
1 Timothy 5:4
HomeWorship is not a new revelation.
Since the ancient
Faithful of YHWH before Abraham, on to the later Hebrew’s, the heads
of the house always assumed the primary role of their children’s
spiritual education and leading their home worship services (Deu.6:4-9). As a matter of fact, the first Holy Days in the Passover
season are observed at home and encourages children to join in.
YHWH knows what HE is doing!
Home Worship makes YHWH hands-on, this strengthens the family
bond, and gives one a place in YHWH’s spiritual Kingdom.
In the Gospels, because of problems with the
religious orthodoxy, most believers worshipped at home
(Act.2:2,46; 20:20; Rom.16:5; 1Cor.16:9 ).
They believed the body, not some building, was the Temple of the
Holy spirit (1Cor.3:16). And
many seem to forget that in Acts ch.2, the Disciples did not conger up
and distribute the Holy Spirit; it came from Heaven ‘directly’ to
the faithful. There are many New
Testament stories of “invoking” the Holy Spirit via laying on of
hands, anointing, baptizing, etc. See
my spiritual Power-Tools web pages for more info: http://www.homeworship101.com/sp-t1_prayer.htm
- “It
is impossible to mentally or socially enslave
- a
Bible reading people.”

Horace Greeley
Today
we have mostly forgotten the spiritual side that has been stolen from us
so many centuries ago. Sadly,
today’s worship is mostly a spectator event.
It is formal and institutionalized, usually in special building
presided over by a priest - for one or two hours a week.
This means the faithful are no longer hands on as it would be in
the intimate setting at home – 7 days a week.
In our spiritual life we have a separation, a distant
relationship, which is the result of the ancient divorce with YHWH,
unfortunately most of the faithful do not see it. The result is that the faithful do not recognize the
spiritual power they personally hold and are easily enslaved into one of
Satan’s traps. Often, I
quote Confucius,
“To lead an untrained people to war is to throw them away.”
What I mean is: What
good is spiritual knowledge if you do not know how to apply, or
‘invoke,’ it? I always
wonder, is it that the priests do not want to teach, or the laity who
does not want to learn? My
idea is to educate the layperson and “enhance” their spiritual-life
experience, and indirectly, spirituality builds character (Pro.9:9).
The spiritual concept is simple: When a person recognizes
YHWH’S Covenant Blessings, and accepts the spiritual responsibility to
pass it on, it gives one a place in YHWH’S universe as an Ambassador
of the Kingdom, and as a Priest, wise in the use of YHWH’S Spiritual
Power-Tools to counter the darkness (2Cor.5:20; 1Pet.2:9).
It is important to remember:
That all the angels and other beings of YHWH’s great universe
(Rev.ch.4), on to the first humans Adam and Eve, after being created,
immediately knew their CREATOR. After
Adam and Eve’s fall from grace, humanity now has to have 'faith' in
our CREATOR, and have the 'heart' for HIS Righteous path (Heb.11:1).
That is what makes the faithful so special during this age,
because in all the Universe we are the true faithful because we are the
only ones who believe without seeing (Jon.20:29;1Pet.2:9).
- “Train up a child
in the way he should go,
- And when he is old
he will not depart from it.”
- - Proverbs 22:6
Teach your children humility, honesty,
gratitude, the Golden Rule,
and everyone will thank you. Home
Worship is the keystone of the faith because parents, starting at an
early age, are in the unique position to pass along their spiritual
heritage to their children. Children
will do what they see their parents doing.
Unfortunately today most children do not see their parents
reading the Bible and leading worship at home.
The lost art of home worship reflects glaringly in today’s
“focus on the me society” where YHWH and the Bible are absent from
the family table.
Your children are not only heirs to your
possessions, they are heirs to your values and character.
Schooling was done at the synagogue, but the parents through home life
and in home Worship taught morality and spirituality. Righteous
character development and correction would be done at home, nobody would
expect or depend on an outside teacher to do this for them - it was a
family function. The children were expected to learn from their
parents on how to live as a proper member of the community.
The head of the family
was the provider, the teacher, and acted as the priest within the
household. The teaching of history, religious beliefs, laws, and
customs, were passed on from the parents to the children in a family
setting, and reinforced by the rites celebrated within the house, which
often centered around the Sacred family meal. Teaching is
performed by two methods: Through direct instruction, reinforced by a
combination of rewards and punishments for acceptable and unacceptable
behavior. The second method is living by example, which is the
most important method.
- Teach your children the Golden Rule
- and the world will thank you.
Today, values, virtues, or personal honor,
are terms that have lost much of their objective meaning. In times
past, the preferred word was virtue, which included such things as
obedience, self-reliance, charity, discipline, cleanliness, a sense of
order, and respectability – they are all paving-stones on YHWH’s
Ancient Path. Respectability was a function of good character, to
strive to improve oneself of being morally upstanding, sober, honest,
clean, industrious, and punctual. The character of a gentleman or
a lady depended not upon fashion or manners - but upon moral worth; not
on personal possessions - but on personal qualities. Click for: Golden
Rule
The historical lessons are clear:
External discipline, in the form of government or religious control
increases, as individual internal discipline breaks down. That is why
the Biblical lessons learned through the home and family is so very
important to the liberty and freedom of personal and community life.
- “To sacrifice 'home worship' to 'public worship' is a most evil
course of action. Morning and evening devotion in a cottage is
infinitely more pleasing in the sight of God than all the
cathedral pomp which delights the carnal eye and ear.”

Sometimes
people will write me and remind me that the Bible tells us to meet
together,
or ask what is a good church to belong to.
I try to stay out of the mishegoss of religion, I usually say,
“…if you enjoy the people in your church then continue.
I really do not know of a perfect church, but individual and
family homeWorship should be first and not forgotten as it is today.
My focus is teaching the Bible, and the ancient art of home
worship.” For more

VISION!
- "No longer do I call you servants,
- for a servant does not know what his master is doing;
- but I have called you friends,
- for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you."
- John 15:15
Our CREATOR wants us to be intelligent enough
to be self-governing and self-reliant.
YHWH
wants us to be able, and responsible, to take care of ourselves, both
physically and spiritually, and HE sent HIS Messiah to teach us this. It
is man’s governments and religions that promote fear and dependency.
People, in fear of their health, depend on doctors.
People, in spiritual fear of eternal damnation need priests and
religions. People, in fear
of their neighbors, both foreign and domestic, need politicians for
their quality of life. The
Kingdom of YHWH is opposite of man’s government HE wants us to be able
have a peaceful quality of life. We
do that by using our intelligence, understanding YHWH’s Wisdom (the
Bible), understanding how to use YHWH’s healing herbs and foods, and
by wearing YHWH’s armor.
YHWH’s true churches would be teaching and coaching the
faithful in these arts.
<>< A Closing Thought
><>
Do something noble, be virtuous.
My core argument is that I believe we are
nearing the end of man’s corrupt governments and religions.
When the Messiah
returns, culturally and spiritually the governments of humanity will
reset to the time before the ancient Israelites rejected YHWH’s rule.
It will be the time as told in the Book of Judges, and it will be
a government based on the revolutionary Protestant concept that YHWH
directly empowers the people instead of a king, pope, priest, or rabbi.
And what YHWH directly gives, no man can take away.
The dusty statue books that control us today will be gone in a
world in which the people will finally accept their responsibility of
YHWH’s given freedom. It
will be a time when our spiritual
education teaches the people how to worship at home and
accept their spiritual role to bless YHWH, and bless their children and
family members. This is the
future peace and rest the Bride
should be looking to.
- Our CREATOR-YHWH makes the gates of Heaven available,
- and YHWH’s Ancient Path leads us there;
- the Messiah opens the gates of Heaven,
- but you walk through on your own two feet.
What you do in your mortal life will echo for eternity.
- Enjoy
the journey of learning…
