The Lie Of The Christians

That Yeshua/Jesus Is God Incarnate

The Christian lie has not only caused the most spiritual of Jews to reject
the teachings of Yeshua, but was the paramount reason why Islam came into being.
Mahatma Gandhi who was a devout student of the New Testament, made the astute
observation that if it weren't for the Christians, the whole world would believe
in the teachings of Jesus and TheWay.
A Purely Spiritual Kingdom:
When questioned by Pilate, Yeshua said that
his Kingdom was not of this world: "Jesus answered, 'My
kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants
would fight... but now My kingdom is not from here'" (John 18:36 NKJ).
The reality of this inner Kingdom was further confirmed when Yeshua stated to
the Pharisees: "Now when He was asked by the Pharisees
when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, The kingdom of
God does not come with observation; nor will they say, 'See here!' or 'See
there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:20-21
NKJ). And that this was the original Essene/Ebionite teachings on the Kingdom
is further documented by Edward Gibbon in the Decline And Fall Of The Roman
Empire where he writes: "Among
the Christians who were brought before the tribunal of the emperor, or, as it
seems more probable, before that of the procurator of Judaea, two persons are
said to have appeared, distinguished by their extraction, which was more truly
noble than that of the greatest monarchs. These were the grandsons of St. Jude
the apostle, who himself was the brother of Jesus Christ.
Their natural pretensions to the throne of
David might perhaps attract the respect of the people, and excite the jealousy
of the governor; but the meanness of their garb, and the simplicity of their
answers, soon convinced him that they were neither desirous nor capable of
disturbing the peace of the Roman empire. They frankly confessed their royal
origin, and their near relation to the Messiah; but
they disclaimed any
temporal views, and professed that his kingdom,
which they devoutly expected, was purely of a spiritual and angelic nature."
The grandsons of Jude devoutly expected the Kingdom to come within them,
because they understood how man must fulfill the Law within one's self --
thereby becoming the Living Temple of the Most High. The Ebionite
Nazirene Disciples of Yeshua understood the words: "Do
not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to
destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass
away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is
fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and
teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does
and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I
say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the
scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven"
(Matt 5:17-20 NKJ). A more revealing rendition of the above is found
in the Gospel of the Nazirenes
which reads:
"Whosoever therefore will break one of these commandments which He will give,
and will teach men so, they will be called the least in the kingdom; but who so
ever will do, and teach them, the same will be called great in the kingdom of
heaven."
"They
who believe and obey will save their souls, and they who don't obey will lose
them. For I say to you, That except your
righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees you will
not enter the kingdom of heaven.".
Is the words "They who
believe and obey will save their souls, and they who don't obey will lose them"
really the words of Yeshua/Jesus? Spoken to people who today
call themselves Christians? Are they any different that the words
"But why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do the
things which I say?" (Luke 6:46 NKJ). And, if as Yeshua
states, it is the Will of our Heavenly Father that each of us who are the
prodigal sons and daughters imitate the pattern as set forth in the life of
Yeshua when he fulfilled the Law within himself, then these words are true with
respect to the lawless Christians who today preach the Christ of Constantine:
"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter
the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many
will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name,
cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I
will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice
lawlessness!'" (Matt 7:21-23 NKJ).

On The Fulfillment Of The Law
Quoting The Christian Commentary Barns Notes
[Shall be called great] He that teaches
that all the law of God is binding, and that the whole of it should
be obeyed, without attempting to specify what is most important,
shall be a teacher worthy of his office, and shall be called great.
Hence, we learn:
1. that all the law of God is binding on
Christians. Compare <James 2:10>.
2. that all the commands of God should be preached, in their proper
place, by Christian ministers.
3. that they who pretend that there are any laws of God so small
that they need not obey them, are unworthy of his kingdom. And,
4. that true piety has respect to all the commandments of God.
Compare <Ps. 119:6>.
(Matthew 5:19 PP1 from Barnes' Notes) |

Why would all the Law be binding upon all Christians? Because it
must be fulfilled in the manner expressed by both AskMoses.com, and the Gospel
of the Nazirenes: Notice the very important words in the above article from AskMoses.com:
"We cannot atone for our shortcomings
by sacrificing animals, but we can sacrifice our inner animals—our hormones, our
lusts, our desires, our beastly compulsions."
And this is why the Ebionite Disciples of Yeshua rejected all
animal sacrifice -- i.e., quoting Epiphanius: The Ebionites
"do not accept Moses' Pentateuch in
its entirety; certain sayings they reject... stating Christ has revealed this to
me, and will blespheme most of the legislation"
(Panarion 30.18.7-9). Epiphanius then quotes the Gospel of the
Ebionites/Hebrews where Yeshua states: "I have come to
destroy the sacrifices" (ibid. 30.16.5).
And when AskMoses.com states that we must sacrifice our inner animals, is this any
different than the teachings of Yeshua in the
Gospel of the Nazirenes:
"For they, making a god of their belly, sacrificed to
their God the innocent creatures of the earth, in place of the carnal nature
within themselves. And eating of their flesh and drinking of their blood to
their own destruction, corrupted their bodies and shortened their days, even as
the Gentiles who did not know the truth, or who knowing it, have changed it into
a lie."
Only those who make their body-vessel a Living Temple -- and in the words of
AskMoses.com, they must
"...sacrifice our inner animals—our
hormones, our lusts, our desires, our beastly compulsions"
-- and this is exactly what is stated by Isaiah where it is written:
"And a highway will be there; it will be called
the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not journey on it; it will be for those
who walk in that Way; wicked fools will not go about on it"
(Isa 35:8 NIV).
Why was the Law not done away with as
Christians proclaim?
Because it must be fulfilled within each Disciple of TheWay. And
this is why Yeshua warned those who would call themselves his followers and
believers:
“And he who does
not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his
life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it”
(Matt 10:38-39 NKJ). The requirement that has been set forth is that
“ye shall
therefore be holy, for I am holy”
(Lev 11:45 KJV).
In the words of Gregory, Bishop of Nyssa: “…it is
imperative on all those who have an equally earnest desire for the Good as He
has, to be followers by the path of an exact imitation of Him Who leads the way
to salvation, and to carry into action what He has shown them. It is, in fact
impossible for persons to reach the same goal unless they travel by the same
ways”. And this is why the requirement was set forth by Yeshua with
respect to his disciples and followers: “You,
therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect” (Matt
5:48 RSV). And when Paul condemned the ritual works of the
Law of Moses, what he was saying was that the sacrifice of animals and outward
ritual observances which were celebrated by Jews of a carnal mind, could not
make a person a Living Temple, and could not open the inner door to the Kingdom.
And the faith that Paul preached, is not the static faith of Martin Luther --
but rather, the faith that because the Kingdom is within each of us, that if you
live in accord with the teachings, mindset and lifestyle ordained by Yeshua,
that the Kingdom will come within you. And this is why Paul taught:
"Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to
your earthly nature"
(Col 3:5 NIV). To the degree that Paul warned:
“For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die:
but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live”
How could Paul's statement that there is no salvation in the outward ritual
works of the Law -- but rather, faith in the teachings of Yeshua on the Coming
of the Kingdom within the body and mind of the disciple -- be interpreted as the
static faith of the Christian Church that crucifies Messiah/Christ daily with
their cultural heathen mindset and lifestyle? Paul commands
those who would call themselves the believers and followers of the historical
Yeshua to
"Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to
your earthly nature"
(Col 3:5 NIV). This requires a far greater effort in
the physical, than temple sacrifice and the ritual observances of the Pharisees.
And it was this greater effort in the spiritualization of the observances of the
Law and the Torah, that Yeshua was making reference to in the warning:
"For I say to you, that unless your righteousness
exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means
enter the kingdom of heaven" (Matt 5:20 NKJ). Which is
why, just prior to this warning, it is stated:
. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches
men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and
teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
And in their ignorance of the Truth and TheWay, when
Christians teach that the Law was nailed to the cross, and is no longer in
effect, this has in fact cast them into the abyss of absolute spiritual
ignorance of the "Outer Darkness" that Yeshua portrayed as the fate of
those who fail to purify the body and mind (see
http://DivineStrategery.com#OuterDarkness ) -- and has caused the Christian
world to be cast into a Spiritual Diaspora (see
Diaspora).
It can easily be proven that under the Roman Emperor Constantine, the most corrupted copies of the scriptures were
further altered in order to conceal from the
reader that Yeshua became the Messiah at his baptism (see
The Ten Words). And that the
Gospels were edited and corrupted, in order to make them support the very pagan
religious tenets of Rome (see
http://BibleCorruption.com ). Yet, the original
teachings of Yeshua were faithfully preserved among the Ebionites who taught
that Yeshua "was justified by fulfilling the Law.
He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the
Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would
have been the Christ, for they assert that our Lord
Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity." Hence, when
those true seekers who are portrayed as Spiritual Israel and the Disciples and followers of TheWay "...thus fulfill the law, they are able to
become Christs" (Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34 - see
http://Ebionite.com ). And this
is why Yeshua taught that he was our brother -- i.e.,
"Go instead to my
brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God
and your God'" (John 20:17 NIV) -- and that each of us not only has
the same potential as he did, but that his disciples will do even greater works
than he could do.
With the re-writing of the scriptures by the Church of Constantine, the more
important and spiritually essential teachings of Yeshua and TheWay became ever more obscured (see
Bible Corruption). If the
above is true, and there is a portal or narrow gate to the Kingdom of God within
each of us, then so to is the Logos spoken of in the Gospel of John.
And by fulfilling the Law within himself, Yeshua became the first of the
Prodigal Sons to fulfill the journey of the soul from the Alpha to the Omega.
Thus, this Oneness of our Brother Yeshua with the indwelling Logos is seen in
the declaration that Yeshua was in
“supernatural union of a man and God... In their eyes,
Jesus of Nazareth was a mere mortal, the legitimate son of Joseph and Mary: but
he was the best and wisest of the human race, selected as the worthy instrument
to restore upon earth the worship of the true and supreme Deity. When he was
baptized in the Jordan, the Christ, the first of the aeons, the Son of God
himself, descended on Jesus in the form of a dove, to inhabit his mind, and
direct his actions during the allotted period of his ministry”
(Gibbon; The Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire, V.4, P.366)
Yeshua/Jesus was a man -- just like all men -- who overcame the Law within
himself, and became One with the Inner Logos which the disciples called the True
Prophet. Where Yeshua became One with the indwelling Logos, the
Gentiles recreated the personification of Yeshua, and cast him in the role AS The Logos -- therefore eliminating the most important
aspects of the teachings of TheWay. Instead of imitating Yeshua and
accomplishing what he did within himself, the whole essence of his teachings was altered and
corrupted by the worship of Jesus as God -- i.e., pure pagan idolatry which
survives and is celebrated in most Christian Churches to this very day. Yet, it is well documented
that there is nothing in the scriptures that supports the doctrines of the
Gentile Church. Under the heading of A Trinity Statute, The Encyclopedia
Britannica says: "Neither the word Trinity, nor the
explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his
followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel:
The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed
gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the
end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took
substantially the form it has maintained ever since" (1976,
Micropedia, Vol. X, p. 126). The New Catholic Encyclopedia states:
"The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not
solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its
profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is
precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian
dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely
approaching such a mentality or perspective" (1967, Vol. XIV, p.
299). In The Encyclopedia Americana we read:
"Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian
[believing that God is one person]. The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea
was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect
accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the
contrary, a deviation from this teaching" (1956, Vol. XXVII, p.
294L). According to the Nouveau Dictionnaire Universel,
"The Platonic trinity, itself merely a rearrangement of
older trinities dating back to earlier peoples, appears to be the rational
philosophic trinity of attributes that gave birth to the three hypostases or
divine persons taught by the Christian churches. . . . This Greek philosopher’s
[Plato, fourth century B.C.E.] conception of the divine trinity . . . can be
found in all the ancient [pagan] religions" (Paris, 1865-1870, edited
by M. Lachâtre, Vol. 2, p. 1467). In his Dictionary of the Bible, John L.
McKenzie, S.J., writes that: "The trinity of persons
within the unity of nature is defined in terms of ‘person’ and ‘nature’ which
are G[ree]k philosophical terms; actually the terms do not appear in the Bible.
The trinitarian definitions arose as the result of long controversies in which
these terms and others such as ‘essence’ and ‘substance’ were erroneously
applied to God by some theologians" (New York, 1965, p. 899).
The answer is clearly written in the very beginning of the Revelation where it
is stated: "The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God
gave him..." (Rev 1:1 NIV). Thus, throughout the New Testament we are
presented with the continual theme that Yeshua/Jesus was Anointed by God --
Anointed being the meaning of the Hebrew word Messiah, and the Greek word Christ
-- and that God gave Yeshua/Jesus a revelation to preach to mankind. And
the Divine Message to all of mankind is presented in the words of AskMoses.com:
"...We cannot find G-d in Jerusalem; we must
find Him in us. This was G-d’s
Master Plan. By exchanging a sweeping, dramatic outdoor concert of public
spirituality for an internal, personal, private experience,
G-d was bringing Himself even closer to humanity, laying
the groundwork for the Third and final Temple—an age that will synthesize G-d’s
presence inside our hearts and minds and in the world around us in a totally new
reality: the Era of
Moshiach."
In becoming the first of the prodigal sons to return to the
Kingdom, he became Master of The Way, and God bestowed upon him the highest
place of honor.
