The pagan roots of Christmas

What does Santa Claus and decorating trees have to do with Biblical Christianity?

What is Christmas really about?

Santa Claus, gift-giving, mistletoe, decorating trees, yule logs, and most other Christmas traditions have absolutely no basis in the Bible whatsoever. The Bible does not even instruct us to celebrate the birth of Yahshua the Messiah (aka 'Jesus'), much less tell us that his birthday was December 25th. So what are the real origins of this "holy day"?

The holiday known as 'Christmas' originates from pagan winter solstice celebrations, and was "Christianized" by the Roman Catholic Church. And there is a much darker side to "Santa" and Christmas than may appear at the surface.

Ancient Babylonian and Roman Winter Solstice Celebrations

In ancient Babylon, the feast of the Son of Isis (Goddess of Nature) was celebrated on December 25. Raucous partying, gluttonous eating and drinking, and gift-giving were traditions of this feast. In ancient Rome, a winter festival called 'Saturnalia' was celebrated from December 17th to December 23rd in honor of their god Saturn. It was a once-a-year time to indulge in feasting, drinking, the exchanging of gifts, and merrymaking in general.










Yule

The pagan peoples of northern Europe also celebrated the winter solstice in a holiday known as 'Yule', in which they honored their pagan gods and celebrated "for a fertile and peaceful season", including fertility sacrifices. Trees and other greenery decorated the inside of homes in order to remind people of the soon return of Spring. It was customary to light a candle to encourage the sun god--and the sun--to reappear the following year.

The traditions from Yule heavily influence Christmas, including the use of greenery indoors, the Yule log, and kissing under mistletoe.










Yule Log

The Yule log was the center of the trunk of a tree that was dragged to a large fireplace where it was supposed to burn for twelve days. From this comes the twelve days of Christmas.










Mistletoe

The source of "kissing under the mistletoe" is pagan Celtic-Norse rituals and mythology.

Mistletoe was considered by the pagan Druids to be a 'sacred' plant having medicinal qualities and mysterious supernatural powers, especially helping fertility. The custom of kissing under the mistletoe began as a fertility ritual. [1]

Mistletoe was also used by the pagan Romans in fertility rites.











Decoration of Trees and use of Greenery Indoors

The decoration of homes with greenery during the dead of winter was done as a reminder that the warmer spring and summer months would soon eventually come.

At the winter solstice, the Romans decorated their homes with evergreen trees and boughs of laurel. The pagan Northern Europeans used holly, ivy and bay for both decoration and in their religious rites at their solstice observance. Hollyberries were believed to be a "food of the gods." In northern Europe, evergreen branches were used as means to "ward off evil spirits." The use of the Christmas tree also goes back to the early Druidic practice of tree worship.









Carrolling

In Rome, Saturnalia was celebrated by groups of people singing in the streets. This is the origin of 'carrolling'.












Gift-giving

Many people associate gift-giving with the wise men and their presents to the young 'Jesus', but this practice is also of pagan origin. The Romans exchanged "good luck" presents during Saturnalia, in which the wealthy gave gifts to the poor in honor of the "golden age of liberty when the god Saturn ruled the known world". [2]












Church of Rome renames Saturnalia festival "Christ's Mass"

Saturnalia was popular among the pagan Romans in the early years of the Roman Catholic Church following when Constantine decreed his version of 'Christianity' as the official religion of Rome. In order to make it easier for the pagans to convert to Christianity as well as further paganize and corrupt the true Israelite religion, the Romish Church simply encouraged the continued observance of Saturnalia, but ascribed 'Christian' meanings to the pagan rituals, and gave the festival the name "the Mass of Christ" or "Christ's Mass." Instead of the birth of the Sun god, this was now the 'birth of Christ.'











Puritans Rejected 'Christmas' - 'Holiday' suppressed from 16th to 19th Centuries

The Puritans, citing its pagan origins, believed Christmas should not be observed. Prominent Puritan William Prynne, during the time of king Charles I, wrote:

"Our Christmas lords of Misrule, together with dancing, masques, mummeries, stage-players, and such other Christmas disorders, now in use with Christians, were derived from these Roman Saturnalia and Bacchanalian festivals; which should cause all pious Christians eternally to abominate them" (The Book of Christmas Folklore, p. 8).[3]

The observance of Christmas was made illegal in Scotland in the 16th century. It was also made illegal in many parts of the United States in the early days of the nation, mainly in New England states such as Massachusetts where the Puritan influence was strong.

Due to the influence of the Puritans in Britain and the United States, celebration of Christmas was suppressed in the Anglo-Saxon world from the 16th through the 19th century. Over the last century, due mainly to mass media influence, Christmas observance has exploded in popularity.










Yahshua the Messiah actually born in the Fall

The Bible provides evidence which shows that December 25 is the incorrect date for Yahshua the Messiah's birth. From the biblical description, his birth actually occurred in the Fall, most likely September.

It is very unlikely that He was born in December, since the Bible records shepherds tending their sheep in the fields on that night. In Luke 2:8 it is written: "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night."










YHWH commands "Learn not the way of the heathen."

In the Bible, YHWH sternly warns his people time and time again to have nothing to do with paganism, which is idolatry and worship of false gods.

The prophet Jeremiah instructed the Israelites to not cut down trees and adorn them as the heathens:

"Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not." (Jeremiah 10:2-4)

Who is really celebrated at winter solstice observances?

The ancient pagan winter solstice festivals were part of the worship of the sun and their gods - Tammuz in Babylon, Horus in Egypt, Saturn in Rome, and Mithras in Persia and Rome. These gods have been identified by experts in the occult as associated with Satan.












Santa or Satan?

The name 'Santa' is an anagram for 'Satan'. The rearranging of letters (called anagrams) to hide secret names or words has long been practiced in the occult.

Satan seeks to imitate the most high YHWH and be worshipped like him. Consider the fact that 'Santa' is dressed in red (Revelation 19:13, "And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God"), has white hair and a beard (Revelation 1:14, "His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow"), is omniscient (ie, "knows whether children have been good or bad"), omnipresent (can travel the whole world over in one night), rides the heavens with the help of magical beasts, resides in the North (Isaiah 14:13, "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north"), "brings good gifts", is a carpenter, and asks children to pray to him. "St Nick" is another name for Santa Claus, while "Old Nick" is an epithet-nickname for Satan. In medieval plays, the trademark line or laugh for Satan, or the devil, was "Ho ho ho". [4]

Is all of this just a coincidence? Or something more sinister?

The early years of a child's development are crucial (eg, Proverbs 22:6: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."). Jesus also said “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:3)

Not only are children hoodwinked into pagan and materialistic practices at Christmas, but are further injured by being lied to about a "Santa" that they are later told is fictionial and does not exist. Consider what harm this does to childrens' "childlike faith" and ability to believe their parents about the existence of 'God'.














Elves, "Santa's little helpers"

What is the significance of elves, who are known as supernatural beings "with magical powers who exercise a mischievous interference in human affairs"?

Occult researchers and authors describe elves as "demonic entities" associated with witchcraft and sorcery. In "The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft", Rosemary Ellen Guiley says of Elves:

"A host of supernatural beings and spirits who exist between earth and heaven. Fairies or Elves are fallen angels. When God cast Lucifer from heaven, the angels who were loyal to Lucifer plunged down with him." (The Encyclopedia of Witches and Witchcraft, p. 115) [6]

"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him" - Revelation 12:9

The 'traditions of men' or the word of YHWH?

Apologists who do not know the true YHWH and his laws will say that even if Christmas has pagan roots it is still "acceptable" to celebrate it because it is "done with good intentions" and attempting to "honor Jesus."

On the surface, it may appear 'good' and harmless. But underneath, it rooted in darkness -- ie, the worship of false gods and nature, friviolity, materialism, gluttony, and debauchery.

And then to take the holy name of YHWH and Yahshua and profane them by using them in association with such vile pagan practices. That is truly an abomination.

In every age, people must decide whether they just "go along with the crowd" on the easy, wide road that leads to destruction -- or whether they will follow the narrow way, taking the words and commandments of YHWH seriously, unto their salvation and eternal life.

Bible does not say that Earth is only 6,000 years old, only that Adam & Eve created 6,000 years ago - Life existed in previous ages, then destroyed

INTRODUCTION

The Bible does not teach that the Earth is only six thousand years old. What the Bible does indicate and record is that Adam and Eve were created approximately six thousand years ago. Prior to the creation of Adam and Eve, going back perhaps thousands and millions of years, life existed in previous ages on the Earth. At some point, as indicated by the Bible, this life was destroyed in a great cataclysm, including flooding by water. Genesis 1:2 records that the Creator "moved upon the face of the waters" of this desolated Earth, and then "remade" the Earth and re-created life on the Earth.

This all can be shown from a proper translation of Genesis and other passages in the Bible from the original Hebrew and Greek.

[NOTE/DISCLAMER: I am unsure about some of the teaching in the above source (eg, the claim that the one third of the "stars of heaven" who revolted with Lucifer included our own souls in spiritual bodies in this previous age), and therefore do not endorse the source in full. ]

Excerpts from source:

GENESIS 1:1-2









Embedded notes in Scripture (by #):

*1). In the beginning. It states: "In the beginning," but it doesn't say when that was. We know from archeology that this earth is billions of years old. Scientific Carbon Dating does not contradict this verse!

There is no date given in the above Scripture, why try to affix one? It is impossible, for there is no reference point given. We can however pick up a date when Adam will later in the Scriptures be formed, because all his ancestor's ages are given in the Scriptures themselves, and the age that they were when they had the next child chronologically in the list. There was a reason that God saw to it that this, seemingly redundant and unimportant information, was handed down through the Millennia whereby we may simply add the numbers up together and deduct them from any certain date in secular history.

But Adam's being formed is long after this verse transpires. This is a substantial point often overlooked by those whom, for whatever reasons of their own, seek to cast doubt on the Bible. It didn't say that God created the Earth when He formed Adam. So while with certainly we may date Adam, we cannot do the same with the date of the creation of the world. Why charge God and His Bible with error when the real problem is our inability to read what is written and to not read into it that which is not written?

*2). We notice that there is a period at the end of this sentence. That means that this thought is complete and the next sentence is a new thought. In reality there is unknown eons of time between this verse and the next. This is what is called time gap in scriptures, and it is recognized to occur in at least twenty-five places in the Bible.











Using Strong's Concordance for Genesis 1:2, we get the following:

"And the earth [H776] was [H1961] (8804) without form [H8414], and void [H922]; and darkness [H2822] [was] upon the face [H6440] of the deep [H8415]. And the Spirit [H7307] of God [H430] moved [H7363] (8764) upon [H5921] the face [H6440] of the waters [H4325]."

1). was is the English translation of a Hebrew word (hayah) which means Became. In other words, the earth was not created without form and void, but that it became that way at some point in time after it was created.

Hebrew word #1961 hayah (haw-yaw); a primitive root [compare 1933]; to exist, i.e. be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary)

*2). without form was translated from the Hebrew word (tohuw) that means: to lie waste, a desolation. You cannot lie waste or desolate something unless it was once in good condition and then at some later time it was destroyed.

Hebrew word #8414 tohuw (to'-hoo);
from an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), i.e. desert; figuratively, a worthless thing; adverbially, in vain: KJV-- confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness.

*3). void is translated from a Hebrew word (bohuw) that means: an indistinguishable ruin. You cannot have a ruin unless there was at first, something to ruin.

Hebrew word #922 bohuw (bo'-hoo);
from an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, i.e. (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin: KJV-- emptiness, void.

*4). darkness (choshek) as it is used here means to become dark, to be darkened. You cannot darken something that was not lit in the first place.

Hebrew word #2822 choshek (kho-shek');
from 2821; the dark; hence (literally) darkness; figuratively, misery, destruction, death, ignorance, sorrow, wickedness: KJV-- dark (-ness), night, obscurity.

*5). deep, this corresponds with the description of the destruction of the first earth age by water (NOT Noah's flood here).

Hebrew word #8415 tehowm (teh-home'); or tehom (teh-home');
(usually feminine) from 1949; an abyss (as a surging mass of water), especially the deep (the main sea or the subterranean water-supply): KJV-- deep (place), depth.

*6). There is a period at the end of this sentence. The following sentence marks the beginning of the rejuvenation into this (our current day) earth age.

*7). Spirit of God = The Holy Spirit; the Spirit of God IS the Holy Spirit.


Below, we will see what Almighty God says about the way He created the world, and we see that He did not create it void and without form, but that it became like that at a later time:

Isa 45:18
For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain*1, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. (KJV)

*1). vain = There is something remarkable here that is lost to the English reader of the Bible. In the Hebrew Manuscripts that the above verse was translated out of, the word translated into the English as vain is translated from the identical Hebrew word that we saw in Gen 1:1 (tohuw - #2 above), it's the same Hebrew word.

So that should explain what it is really saying when we read in Gen 1:2: "And the earth was without form [tohuw], and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep."

It is important to point out that the separation of Chapters, Verses, Sentences, and even the spaces between words is the work of the Scribes and the Translators. In the ancient Manuscripts, the whole page is written like one long word. The Scribes and Translators only had their interpretation of the meaning of the scripture to use as a guide, when separating Chapters, Verses, Lines, and the words.

This happens in our verse 2 above, in the middle of verse two after the period we have the sentence that marks the beginning of the rejuvenation of the world into our present earth age (the second of three): "And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." This rejuvenation continues on in the following verses as God creates everything as we know it in our world.

So therefore, with the truest meanings of the key defined words in the above scripture explained, we can thus take the first verse and the first half of the second verse, up to the period, and present it as such:

1) In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. (Notice the periods)

And now we will explain the verse, not retranslate it. We will describe it so that it explains not only the Hebrew words in the English language, but also the Hebrew thought into the English understanding. Therefore, it will be better understood if read as:

In the beginning of time, when that was isn't stated, God created everything in the Heavens and on the earth. Then some unknown length of time later, something catastrophic occurred that made God's Creation come to utter destruction, it became a wasted place. This destruction manifested itself among other things as a total flood. So complete was this destructive event that not only did the earth become an indistinguishable ruin, but even the sun stopped shining its light upon it, and all the earth was cast into utter darkness.

Then the second sentence of verse 2 marks the start of the rejuvenation of the earth and the commencement of God's Creation on the earth as we know it now in this present second earth age which we now live in.

MORE SCRIPTURAL EVIDENCE OF THE DESTRUCTION OF THE EARTH IN A PREVIOUS AGE

2 Pet 3:5-7
5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

The above passage is not talking about the flood of Noah's time (which was not a worldwide flood anyway), because the world did not perish at that time (ie, Noah and his family survived, as well as plant life, etc).

Paul, aka Saul of Tarsus the Pharisee - A False Apostle, Infiltrator, and Subverter

Introduction

The issue of Saul/Paul is something I have been seriously considering for several years. It has been a difficult process of questioning and re-examination of deeply held beliefs. So it is not something I now write about rashly or flippantly, without consideration or careful study -- but rather soberly, and as respectfully as I can articulate.

Having been brought up in "mainstream Christianity", you are conditioned to believe that the "Bible" is infallible. I understand, therefore, that for a "mainstream Christian" to question the apostleship of Paul seems unthinkable, and even perhaps "blasphemous."

And while it is true that YHWH's word is infallible, we must understand that the "Bible" is a collection of books assembled by men. Catholics and Protestants disagree, for instance, as to what books are canon scripture. The task, then, is to sift truth from error, and determine which writings are those of genuine prophets of YHWH, and which are not.

To any serious truthseeker and one who truly wishes to obey YHWH, I urge you to not immediately reject the possibility of this based on preconceived beliefs or an emotional response, but rather to stop and examine the issue rationally and logically, as it is of critical importance.

The evidence is overwhelmingly against Paul being a genuine "apostle." This can be conclusively proven from examining the Scriptures, and the writings of Paul himself, for anyone who has "eyes to see" and "ears to hear" -- that is, anyone who cares to use their eyes and hears, and not shut them up in order to perpetuate their preconceived views.

While Paul's writings contain much truth and the appearance of truth, the most sophisticated and dangerous false teaching mixes the truth with lies in this manner. Consider why Yahshua the Messiah would warn his followers so strongly against false prophets and the "leaven" (ie, doctrine) of the Pharisees, saying that many would be deceived, and the deception so strong that almost the "very elect" would be deceived.

What follows is an outline of some of the strongest arguments/evidences against the apostleship of Saul/Paul.


Saul/Paul was not one of the Genuine 12 Apostles - His Claim to Being An "Apostle" is Blatantly False and Self-Avowed

Saul/Paul was NOT one of the original 12 Apostles, and was not the replacement for Judas. Matthias was chosen by the remaining 11 Apostles as the replacement (Acts 1:26).

The Gospels and Book of Revelation makes clear that there are only 12 apostles:

Revelation 21:14 "And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb."

Yet Saul/Paul over and over in his epistles claims to be an "apostle."


Who was Saul of Tarsus, aka "Paul"? A Pharisee, Persecutor and Murderer of the Followers of Yahshua the Messiah

Saul of Tarsus was a leading Pharisee (and proclaimed "son of a Pharisee" - Acts 23:6), who lead the persecution of Yahshua and his followers. He was present at the stoning of Stephen (Acts 7:58).

Yahshua strongly warned against the leaven/doctrine of the Pharisees. Based upon all of the evidence against Saul/Paul (outlined below), it is apparent that Saul/Paul decided that overt persecution of Yahshuah's followers was not the best tactic to destroy them, but rather covert infiltration and subversion. So he transformed from a persecutor and murderer of the Messiah's disciples into an infiltrator and deceiver who sought to attack the true message of the Gospel from within by masquerading as an "apostle."

Consider this hypothetical: If a man alive today (lets say a vehemently anti-Christian Jewish Rabbi) were known to have ruthlessly persecuted and murdered Christians in the past, was caught, and then claimed to have "converted", what would you make of such a man? Should he go to prison, perhaps face the death penalty for his crimes? Would you believe him if he then claimed to be "the greatest apostle of Yahshua"? Well Saul/Paul never faced the just penalty for his crimes, and hardly even apologized or showed any remorse in his many epistles for his crimes. And now he's the "greatest apostle"?

Also, remember that Saul/Paul was not trained by the disciples, the men who walked, talked, and lived with the Messiah. He claimed to have received his knowledge from "revelations." He was not recognized by the true apostles as a genuine apostle. Paul claimed that title for himself.


Warnings Against False Prophets and the Leaven/Doctrine of the Pharisees

1 John 4:1 "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."

Matthew 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves."

Matthew 16:6 "Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees."

Matthew 24:24 "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."

Matthew 24:4-5 "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many."

Note that Yahshua says that MANY will be deceived, not just a few, and that even the "very elect" would almost be deceived.


Damning "Smoking Gun" Evidence Against Saul/Paul - Paul Admits To Timothy That All In Asia Have Rejected Him - In Revelation, Yahshua Commends the Ephesians For Rejecting False Apostles

In Paul's second letter to Timothy, believed by many scholars to contain some his last recorded words, he makes a statement which is devastating to Paul's claim to apostleship:

2 Timothy 1:15 "This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me;"

At that time, the term "Asia" referred to the area of modern-day Turkey. This is confirmed in the Book of Revelation, written to the "seven churches in Asia" (Revelation 1:4).

Ephesus, of course, was a city where Saul/Paul had attempted to win converts (see Paul’s letter to the Ephesians).

The fact that many Israelites in Asia opposed Saul/Paul is corroborated in the book of Acts where men from Asia accuse Paul of teaching against the Law, and bringing an Ephesian friend into the temple:

Acts 21: 27-29 "And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him, Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place. (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)"

Now, examine what Yahshua the Messiah says to the Church at Ephesus in Revelation Chapter 2:

Revelation 2:1-2 "Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars"

Stop and consider the significance of this. Saul/Paul, the self-proclaimed "apostle", admits ALL of those in Asia, including the Ephesians, had rejected him. Then Yahshua commends the Ephesians for rejecting false apostles! If you have ears to hear and eyes to see, are you seeing/hearing this? Could it be much more obvious?

Here are the facts, paraphrased:

Paul to the Ephesians: "I am an apostle of Yahshua"
The Ephesians to Paul: "No you're not."
Yahshua to the Ephesians: "Well done!"


EVIDENCE FROM SAUL/PAUL's WRITINGS DEMONSTRATING HE TAUGHT AGAINST YAHSHUA AND THE LAW OF YHWH


Saul/Paul Teaches Against Keeping the Law of YHWH, Teaching That The Law Is a "Curse", "The Law has been abolished", "We are no longer under the law", a nebulous doctrine of "salvation by grace through faith", and an "easy fix" salvation of "confession and belief only"

Saul/Paul's own writings clearly demonstrate that he taught a completely different doctrine than that of Yahshua. Saul taught against keeping the commandments of YHWH, saying that the "law is a curse", "we are no longer under the law", and "the law has been done away with" --and instead teaching a doctrine of "salvation of grace by faith", and an "easy fix" salvation of "confession and belief only." Yahshua the Messiah, on the other hand, taught that one must "do the will of the Father" and obey His commandments in order to obtain eternal life.


Yahshua teaches that only those who obey the Law of YHWH will be saved:

Matthew 19:16-21 "And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me."

Matthew 7:21-23 "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."

Pharisee Infiltrator Saul/Paul taught that the Law of YHWH was a "curse", and a nebulous doctrine of "salvation by grace through faith":

Galatians 3:10-14 "All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because, "The righteous will live by faith." The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, "The man who does these things will live by them." Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree." He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit."

Romans 6:14 "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace."

Here in his letter to the Ephesians, Saul teaches that the Messiah "abolished the law of commandments":

Ephesians 2:15 "Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;"

Yet Yahshua the Messiah said:

Matthew 5:17-20 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same 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, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."

Saul teaches that all one has to do in order to be "saved" is "believe and confess":

Romans 10:9 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

If that is all that is required, do not devils and sons of devils intellectually acknowledge that Yahshua is the Messiah and that he was raised from the dead? What differentiates the wicked/unsaved from the righteous/saved, is that the saved obey the commandments of YHWH.



Romans 13 - Saul/Paul Teaches That We Must Obey The Laws of Men, ie Government - Laying a Trap for YHWH's People To Obey Anti-Christ Beast System Unto Their Destruction

Saul/Paul infamously writes in Romans 13 that we should always obey the government:

Romans 13:1-13 "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority?"

Really? Even butchers like Stalin, Lenin, and Mao? -- as they outlawed Christianity, and ordered their citizens to deny God and become atheists?

And how about if/when the final Anti-Christ power comes and commands Christians to take the "mark of the Beast"? Should we blindly obey the government then? According to Saul/Paul, "yes."


More Examples of False Teaching From Saul/Paul

These are just a few examples, in the interest of brevity. There are many many more similar examples of twisted doctrine, misquoting of Old Testament scripture, etc.

1. Saul/Paul Boastfully Claims He Was The "Father" of His Followers

Yahshua:

Matthew 23:9 "Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven."

Saul/Paul:

1 Corinthians 4:15 "Even though you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel."

2. Saul/Paul Twists Teaching of Yahshua - Says "All the Law is Summed In a Single Command"

This may seem a small/insignificant difference, but it's clearly not:

Yahshua:

Matthew 22:34-40 "But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."

Pharisee Saul of Tarsus:

Galatians 5:14 "For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

The Problem With Saul/Paul's Claim of "Conversion" On The Road To Damascus - Contradictory Accounts

Saul/Paul claims to have been "converted" on the road to Damascus (on his way to arrest Christians), but there are problems with this claim. There are three separate accounts of this "conversion event" in the Book of Acts, and they contradict each other, demonstrating that Saul is lying about it. Secondly, the Scripture says that "at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established" (Deuteronomy 19:15 ), yet Saul never gives us the names of the witnesses to this "conversion event." Like his claim to "apostleship", we are left to take his word alone.

Account #1:

Acts 9:1-7 " And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem. And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man."

Note in account above that the author of Acts (Luke, a companion of Paul) says that the men traveling with Saul stood there speechless, they heard the sound, but did not see anyone. Also note here that the voice only tells him to arise and go into the city and THERE it shall be told him what to do.

Account #2 (Saul/Paul speaking to the Jews in Jerusalem):

Acts 22:1-9 "Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you. I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day. And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women. As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished. And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me."

Note in account above that Saul/Paul says that the men traveling with Saul did NOT hear the sound, but saw a light, contradicting the account above from Acts, Chapter 9.

Account #3 (Paul before King Agrippa):

Acts 26:12-18 "Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests, At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me. And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me."

Here, Paul claims that the voice told him these things he was to do THERE ON THE ROAD. This is a clear departure from the other accounts of the event. The stories cannot be reconciled. At least one is not true.


Other Notes

-Saul/Paul's false teachings (eg, "rapture" doctrine) have lead to much of the doctrinal confusion, schisms, and infighting among Christians over the last 2,000 years.

-As evidenced by much of the New Testament, there was actually a bitter feud between Saul/Paul and the genuine 12 Apostles.

-There is compelling evidence that Paul may have actually wrote the books of 1 Peter and 2 Peter (which ostensibly demonstrate support for Saul/Paul by the Apostle Peter).


Conclusion

To summarize the important points:

1. Yahshua the Messiah taught that we must obey the Law of YHWH in order to inherit eternal life.

2. Pharisee infiltrator and false Apostle Saul/Paul taught against obeying the Law of YHWH, saying "the law is a curse", and "we are no longer under the law" [Romans 6:14]. He even taught that Yahshua had "abolished the law and commandments" [Ephesians 2:15]. Saul taught an "easy fix" salvation of "salvation by faith" and "if you believe and confess you will be saved" [Romans 10:9]. As a result, most of the Pauline mainstream "Judeo-Christian" churches reject the laws of YHWH in favor of Saul's "easy fix salvation" doctrine.

3. While teaching against the Law of YHWH, Pharisee Saul takes it one step further and teaches that we must obey the laws of men and governments no matter what (ie, obey the Satanic/Beast/AntiChrist controlled governments of the world) [Romans 13:1-13], laying a trap for the people of YHWH unto their destruction.

The sacred name of the Creator --the Most High, the Mighty One of Israel-- is YHWH -Not "God", "Lord", or other titles or pagan substitutes

Proverbs 30:4 "Who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?"

"Despite the heavy emphasis placed by the Scriptures upon both the knowledge and use of the sacred name, popular [Judaized] Christian dogma ignores it, [and] Jewish Talmudic traditions forbid its use and ordered its concealment." [1]

Introduction

The subject of the name of our Heavenly Father is basically a very difficult one. It has been ingrained in us from childhood to call our Heavenly Father God, Lord, Jesus and all the other names we have learned. Now today we are going to have to do as the Messiah taught us, we have to become as little children.

This particular subject is probably one of the most difficult subjects to actually practice in all the Kingdom Identity Messages. It is to repent and come back and get rid of all those old names that we have been taught by our mothers and our fathers and our schools and our churches all our lives. And admit to the fact that they may be wrong.

Let us go through Scripture today and become as little children and see if we can beak all of those old habits because the Father wants us to turn around an go down the right path because He wants repentance which means to turn around and come back to Him.

The Importance of His Name - The only name by which we are saved

Joel 2:32 "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of YHWH (Strong's Hebrew Word #3068, YHWH) shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as YHWH hath said, and in the remnant whom Yahweh shall call."

-[the KJV substitutes "the LORD" for YHWH]


Exodus 3:13-15 (KJV): "And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations."


Isaiah 42:8 "I am YHWH (Strong's Hebrew Word #3068, YHWH): that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images."


Psalms 83:18 "That men may know that thou, whose name alone is YHWH, art the most high over all the earth."


Psalms 68:4 (KJV) "Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him."

Note here the KJV uses the word "JAH", which is translated from Strong's Hebrew Word #3050, which is a contraction of Hebrew Word #3068.

The KJV should have tranlated the above as "Yah", as there was no "J" sound in Hebrew. "Yah" is the last part of the word "halleluYah." HalleluYah is the most ancient of all words of praise and means "praise Yah."


YHWH’s Name Has Been Edited Out of Most Bible Translations

Yahweh’s Name doesn’t appear even one time in the text of the three most popular English Bible translations on the market today. The King James Bible, the New American Standard Bible, and the New International Version substitute the titles “LORD” and “GOD” with all the letters capitalized where the Name “Yahweh” actually belongs. Jewish religious leaders introduced this tradition in the mid-2nd century B.C., and it has continued since that time. This man-made tradition, which achieved near-universal acceptance in 1611 A.D. when the King James Bible editors failed to include the Name ”Yahweh” in their inaugural edition, is wrong and dangerous for two reasons. First, it nullifies Yahweh’s explicit command to tell the world that we have only One God—Yahweh. Second, according to the Bible, Yahweh is the only Name in which we have salvation. [2]

The Enemy has attempted to blot out His name:

In today's modern translations, ALL the place names and the personal names, which originally bore the glory of Yahweh's Name, have been changed; every trace of Yahweh's Name is hidden. The result of this is: a student can read the majority of the later English translations of the Scriptures, and the NAME of the ONLY ONE Who inspired those Scriptures to be written, is not even hinted at!

According to the inspired prophecies, the Messiah's Name was to MEAN: Yahweh is Salvation; which is exactly what the Name Yahushua means!

Joshua means "YHWH is Salvation" (Strong's). The Savior was named Yahushua because that is what the angel said it was supposed to mean. Yahushua literally means YHWH is salvation: "He (YHWH) shall save His (YHWH's) people from their sins." Psalm 100 and Strong's concordance or your dictionary will confirm this fact. [3]

Bible Translators and Scholars Acknowledge the Name of the Creator is YHWH

In the introduction to the Moffatt Translation (pp. 20-21), James Moffat makes it clear that he would have no hesitation about using the Name Yahweh in his translation if he had intended it for students of the original Scriptures.


We find in the preface to the Goodspeed translation: "The Hebrews called their deity by the name Yahweh, and in shorter form Yah." This source admits to using substitutes for the Name Yahweh.


The Revised Standard Version says at Exodus 3:15, "The word of the LORD when spelled with capital letters stands for the divine name YHWH, which is here connected with the verb hayah, to be."


The New Catholic Bible (Catholic Bible Press), at Exodus 3:14 notes, "I am who I am" ; apparently this utterance is the source of the word Yahweh; the proper, personal name of the God of Israel... , Out of reverence for this name the term 'Adonai,' 'my Lord,' was used as a substitute. The word Lord in the present version represents this traditional usage. The word Jehovah arose from a false reading of this name as it is written in the current Hebrew text."


In the International Bible Encyclopedia of the King James Version published by Garden City Publishing Co., we note the following under the heading "Jehovah": "It is believed that the correct pronunciation of this word is 'Yahweh.' "


In the Jewish Encyclopedia (volume 7, p. 88) is this revealing statement: "The reading Jehovah is a comparatively recent invention. Jehovah is generally held to have been the invention of Pope Leo the 10th's confessor, Peter Galatin (De Arcanis Catholic Veritates 1518, Folio XLIII), who was followed in the use of this hybrid form by Fagius Drusius."


A new Standard Bible Dictionary states, "Jehovah... properly Yahweh... the form 'Jehovah' is impossible, according to the strict principles of Hebrew vocalization." (There was no "J" in the original Hebrew, nor in Greek for that matter. Modern Hebrew has no "J".)


From the preface to the Holy Name Bible, published by the Scripture Research Association, is the following: "Another common error among most of the translators is their elimination of heaven's revealed Name of the Most High, Yahweh, and the Name of His Son, Yahushua the Messiah, and the substitution of the names of the local deities of the nations among whom they dwelt (Psalm 96:5), expressly transgressing Yahweh's commandments as given in Exodus 20:7 and 23:13.

"The substitution of the Names Yahweh and Yahushua by the names of the pagan deities of the nations has brought immeasurable harm… By employing these names the people unknowingly turn the worship of Yahweh into that of idols and actually ascribe the benevolent characteristics of the Mighty One of Israel to the pagan deities (Hosea 2:8)."

On page 7 of this source we read, "His Name is composed of two parts: Yah-Hoshua (Savior). Thus the contraction Yahushua signifies Yahweh-Savior and strikingly bears out the logic of Matthew 1:21."


From Common Secular Sources

From the Oxford Cyclopedic Concordance is this on page 121: "Jehovah, the name revealed to Moses at Horeb… Its real pronunciation is approximately Yahweh. The name itself was not pronounced Jehovah before the 16th century."


Encyclopaedia Britannica (Micropedia, vol. 10): Although Christian scholars after the Renaissance and Reformation periods used the term Jehovah for YHWH, in the 19th and 20th centuries biblical scholars again began to use the form Yahweh. Early Christian writers, such as Clement of Alexandria in the 2nd century, had used the form Yahweh, thus this pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton was never really lost. Greek transcriptions also indicated that YHWH should be pronounced Yahweh."


Webster's New World Dictionary - "Yahweh… a form of the Hebrew name in the Old Testament. See Tetragrammaton."


The New American Encyclopedia notes this under Jehovah, "(properly Yahweh) a name of the [Mighty One] of Israel, now widely regarded as a mispronunciation of the Hebrew YHWH."

Biblical Christianity, YHWH the Almighty Creator, and Yahshua the Messiah are 'racist' & 'anti-Semitic' - Racism is divinely ordained

This may sound harsh and unbelievable to ears inundated by jewish lies and propaganda from the Jew tube and the apostate 'judeo-christian' churches. But if one actually examines what the Bible says as opposed to the spin put on the Bible by the modern-day judeo-christian mass deceivers masquerading as "Christian" preachers, they will find that this is true.

What are the hallmarks and definitions of so-called "racism", according to the Jewish-controlled media and establishment? To care for one's own people above all others? To condemn race-mixing, and promote segregation among the races? Or is it something more extreme, such as advocating violence and genocide against specific races of people? By all of these definitions, our Heavenly Father is a so-called "racist."

First of all, some background information is necessary. All "humans" are not of the same blood and ancestry. The Bible teaches this, logic demands it, and science proves it. The Bible actually teaches that Adam is the ancestor of one race of people, the white race, and there were other races of people on the earth prior to the creation of Adam. We know from biology that it would be impossible for Adam and Eve to procreate and produce white, black, and asian offspring. And archaeology confirms that the non-white races have been on earth much longer than the white race, going back over ten thousand years at the least. I covered this subject in greater detail in a previous article.

Now, going back to the Old Testament, we see that great importance is placed on race. Yahweh chose one race of people, the Israelites, to be his special covenant people above all other people. In addition, the Old Testament is full of references of how Yahweh hated entire races of people [eg, the Edomites (from whom the modern-day "Jews" descend), Canaanites, and others], and how he acted to destroy many of these people. For example, He ordered the Israelites to massacre all the foreign Canaanite peoples before settling in the promised land. He commanded the Israelites to practice racial segregation, and forbid interracial marriage so that the Israelites would maintain their racial purity. For example:

Exodus 33:16 "So shall we be separated, I and all of Thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth."

Ezra 9:2 "For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the HOLY SEED have MIXED themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this TRESPASS."

Nehemiah 9:2 "And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all STRANGERS and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers."

*Note: "Strangers" above in Nehemiah 9:2 is from Strong's Hebrew word #5236, "nekar", meaning "a foreigner" or an "alien".

Moving on to the New Testament, we find no break in the position regarding race. Yahweh does not change. Let us look at the 15th chapter of Matthew, for example. Here is recounted the story of when a non-Israelite woman, a Canaanite, approached Yahshua asking Him to heal her daughter:

"And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us. But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me. But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table." -Matthew 15:22-27 (KJV)

Yahshua referred to this woman as a "dog", identifying her as a non-Israelite, contrasting that to His own people and kinsmen who are the "children." The Messiah was reinforcing the fact that He was sent not to all peoples of the earth, but specifically to the Israelites. This is perfectly logical, as only the Israelites were under the law and covenant of Yahweh, and therefore needed a "savior."

The fact that Yahshua was sent only to the Israelites is confirmed again in Chapter 10:

"These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." -Matthew 10:5-6 (KJV)

The casual judeo-Christian may be puzzled as to why Yahweh would hate races of people, commanding the Israelites to completely exterminate entire tribes. The reason is expounded upon in the New Testament, as recorded by the Messiah's dealings with the Edomite "jews" in the land of Israel at that time:

Yahshua speaking to the Jewish Pharisees:

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do." (John 8:44)

"Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?" (Matthew 23:33)

*Note: "generation" in the above verse is from the Greek "gennema", Strongs Greek word #1081, literally meaning "offspring". Check for yourself in Strong's Concordance and a Hebrew and Greek Lexicon.

As confirmed by the words of Yahshua above, this race of Edomite "jews" to which the Pharisees belonged were physical and biological descendants of Satan, the product of fallen angels who procreated with human women. This is recorded in the Old Testament in chapter 6 of Genesis in the reference to the "Nephilim." I explore the Edomite-Satanic racial origin of the jews in more detail here.

Interestingly, the Old Testament predicts that in the future Yahweh will use his Israelite people to completely annihilate the race of people known as the Edomites:

"And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it." -Obadiah 1:18 (KJV)

*Note: Edom is another name for Esau, the brother of Jacob/Israel, who married Canaanite women

The real sin in the Garden of Eden - Not eating an apple, but seduction into sexual sin - Cain the biological offspring of Satan

Note: I will be using the correct names for the Messiah and the Creator, Yahshua and Yahweh, respectively.For the serious Christian and truth-seeker, this is not a light subject, but one of imperative and profound importance that will enable one to understand the true meaning and message of the Bible. The truth about the sin of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is concealed by the use of figurative language in the Genesis account. Terms such as "tree" and "fruit" are used symbolically. It was not a literal snake that spoke to Eve, and tricked her into eating an apple. Upon close examination of the Genesis account and other Biblical texts in totality, it is clear that what occurred was the seduction of Adam and Eve into sexual sin by Satan. The product of this sin was Cain, the biological son of Satan. This event has defined the rest of history...ie, the war on earth between the children of Yahweh (the descendants of Adam) and the children of Satan (the descendants of Cain). Genesis Account - Correct Understanding of the Text

Gen 2:17 (Yahweh speaking to Adam)"But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." (KJV)Genesis 3:3 "But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die." (KJV)Genesis 3:13: "And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat." (KJV)

Throughout the Bible, the term "tree" is used to symbolically refer to men, angels, or other persons. Examples include referring to the nation of Israel as the "olive tree", and Yahshua as the "tree of life", etc. There is disagreement among scholars as to whether the "trees" in the Garden were other humans, angels, or both. The "tree of the knowledge of good and evil" may refer to the fallen angel Satan, or a race of humans under his influence, and possibly even descended from him and of a satanic bloodline. Unlike the angels of Yahweh who know only good, Satan -- once a loyal servant of Yahweh, but who later rebelled -- knows both good and evil. The word translated as "eat" in English in Genesis 2:17 and 3:3 above is from the Hebrew word "akal", which means "eat" literally or figuratively, but can also mean to "lay." The word translated as "touch" in English in Genesis 3:3 is from the Hebrew word "naga"(Strong's Hebrew word # 5060), which can be translated as "lay the hand upon", but can also be used euphemistically to mean "to lie with a woman". Both of these terms have sexual meanings and connotations. Satan, either by himself or using humans under his influence, "beguiled" Eve (that is, sexually seduced her). The scriptures record that Adam then partook of this "fruit" as well, which most likely means that he had sexual relations with a female of the other human races in the garden.Following their sin, Adam and Eve suddenly became aware and ashamed of their nakedness, and made clothes out of leaves to cover themselves. Would eating an apple cause this reaction? No, but a sin of a sexual nature certainly would. Furthermore, when 'God' pronounced punishment on Adam and Eve, among the punishments was that Eve would have great sorrow in childbirth. Cain Not Listed as a Descendant of Adam - Was "of the Wicked One"The Bible contains many genealogies of the descendants of Adam, such as those tracing the ancestry of Yahshua the Messiah all the way back to Adam. In chapter 5 of Genesis, a listing of the descendants of Adam is given. Neither there or anywhere else in the Bible is Cain ever listed among the descendants of Adam. Why? Because Adam was not his father.The true father of Cain is attested to in the following passage:

1 John 3:8,12: "He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil...Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother." (KJV)

Here the word translated "of" in the KJV is the Greek word #1537 in Strong's Concordance. When used implying a person, it means "a son of or offspring." Other translations, including the "Worldwide English" and "New English" translations, render the passage as "Cain, who was a child of the wicked one."Some scholars say that based on the Dead Sea Scrolls, Genesis 4:1 has been tampered with, and should read:"And Adam knew his wife Eve, who was pregnant by Sammael (Satan), and she conceived and bare Cain, and he was like the heavenly beings, and not like the earthly beings, and she said, I have gotten a man from the angel of the Lord."Prophecy of Conflict Between the 'Seed of the Woman' and the 'Seed of the Serpent'Yahweh ('God') pronounced judgement on the "serpent", Satan:

Genesis 3:15: "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."

"Enmity" is defined as "hostility" or "hatred." The "seed" of the woman are the pure-blooded, non-mongrelized descendants of Adam and Eve, while the "seed" of the Serpent are the hybrid offspring of Satan via Cain. The latter part of the above passage predicts the victory of the seed of the woman over the seed of the serpent...ie, that the seed of Adam and Eve (ie, Yahshua the Messiah) would destroy Satan ("bruise his head"), while Satan would cause the death of Yahshua ("bruising his heel").Identifying The Children of CainThe descendants of Cain multiplied and became numerous, forming many tribes and nations, including the ancient Hittites, Amalekites, Edomites, and other Canaanite tribes, whom settled in the land encompassing modern-day Palestine. At the time of Yahshua, these descendants of Cain (many of them mongrelized Israelites of the tribe of Judah) were the bulk of the population living in the land of Judea, with only a small remnant of pure-blooded Israelites in the area. They controlled the civil and religious government of Judea, while technically under military rule from Rome. The religion of these Cainites was dominated by the Pharisees, and known at that time as the "tradition of the elders." It originated from Babylonian occultism, carried back to Judea by the remnant of Israelites that returned from captivity in Babylon. It is from these people and this religion that the modern-day "Jews" and "Judaism" trace their roots.Yahshua condemned the Pharisees and the race of people to which they belonged for what they were -- a "race of vipers" and "of their father the devil." The Cainite Pharisees and "jews" of that day hated Yahshua and conspired to kill him. Yahshua speaking to the Pharisees:

"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. (John 8:44)(KJV)"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!...Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?...That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. " (Matthew 23:29,33, 35-36)(KJV)

Note that "generation" in the above verse is from the Greek word "gennema" (Strong's # 1081), meaning "offspring". And how could Yahshua say that the generation (ie, race) of the Pharisees were responsible for the murder of Abel? Because the people of the Pharisees were the descendants of Cain.The Cainite-Kenite-Canaanite-Edomite Jews - Satan's Counterfeit "Chosen People"The goal of Satan since his rebellion and fall has been to be like Yahweh, take His place, and be worshipped as Yahweh. Therefore, Satan seeks to imitate and counterfeit the ways of Yahweh. So as Yahweh has children on the earth to do His will, Satan sought to have his own children who would do his will. The seed of the Serpent work to thwart the will of Yahweh and work to destroy the true children of Yahweh. The sons of Satan have been the primary persecutors of Yahweh's true children down through history. As Cain killed Abel, the Cainites have shed all righteous Adamite blood down through history (Matthew 23:35), including crucifying Yahshua.Aside from an attempt to destroy Yahweh's true children through mongrelization and corruption of their genetics and prevent the incarnation of Yahshua, the incarnation of Satan into a literal seedline was an attempt to replace the true children of Yahweh with Satan's counterfeit "chosen people" -- ie, the passing off of the Cainite Jews as Israelites. Knowing Yahweh's plan beforehand, Satan even positioned the Cainites in the promised land before both Abraham and the Israelites arrived. Yahweh responded by commanding the children of Israel to completely destroy the Cainite tribes in the land. The Parable of the SowerIn the 13th chapter of the book of Matthew is recorded a parable Yahshua gave explaining the kingdom of Yahweh. In verse 35 He states "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world."He told the story of a man who sowed good seed in a field, but while he slept, an enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat. His servants asked him if they should go and gather the tares, but the sower said no because in doing so they might also pull up some of the wheat, and said rather let both grow until the time of harvest when both would be gathered, with the wheat stored in the barn and the tares burned. Yahshua explained the meaning of this parable to His disciples, as recorded in Matthew 13:38-39:

"The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world."

ConclusionAs the Biblical texts make abundantly clear, there are literal-physical children of Yahweh and literal-physiological-genetic children of Satan on the earth, engaged in a battle for control of the planet. The race of Adam, the white race, are a special creation, and the very children of Yahweh. Their purpose is to take dominion of the earth and bring in the kingdom of Yahweh, and defeat Satan, who was reigning on the earth prior to the creation of Adam. Satan, seeking to thwart this plan, has attempted to corrupt and destroy the race of Adam by mongrelization, first in the Garden of Eden, and continuing from that point onwards. But through Yahshua, the "son of man" (ie, descendant of Adam) and son of Yahweh, Yahweh has obtained ultimate victory over Satan for His children. The time of the "harvest" is now closing in, and Yahweh will use His children to completely destroy the children of the serpent.Further Resources:- THE CAIN / SATANIC SEED LINE by Pastor Bertrand L.
