Our Family Yisrael

To become set-apart unto our Abba in these days is imperative. 

The call of Abba to a pure heart and to say Yes to everything that he is, to come back to the path laid out from the beginning, to follow the path set out by the disciples of Yahushua of the Living Torah, to follow the path laid out by Shaul of the Living Torah and all of those whom carried the Besorah of good news to the lost sheep in the beginning of the last days.  To return to the unleavened bread of our Abba and to know whom he is as Hebrew, as The Lion of the Tribe of Judah, as the Living Torah of Righteousness of the heart of Spirit and Truth which can never be separated for salvation.

Concerning these very last days and the return to know the name of our Abba and what he has done.  Can anyone hear these words?  Are they too hard to hear?

Yod Hey Vav Hey in Hebrew.   Sounding like Yahuweh.  A name with a meaning.

Yahushua in Hebrew meaning, YAH SAVES!   Yahuweh is our Salvation! 

(See Strongs Concordance and look up the word salvation  KJV.  Moses spoke to the Children of Yisrael to tell them that today you will see the salvation of Yahuweh.  The salvation is the Living Word, Yahushua!)

The Living Word with Yahuweh from the beginning. 

The Living Word described by the Torah, Prophets and all of the scriptures.

The Living Word that was manifested as flesh and became the Living Passover Lamb!

The Living Unleavened Bread that is good to eat!

The Living Shavuot/Pentecost that gives us his blood flow of the Ruach HaKodesh / Holy Spirit to his body, to bring his perfect Living Torah Righteousness upon the altar of our heart, to give his righteousness to those whose own righteousness is as filthy rags.

The Living Yom Teruah, Day of Trumpets, The Living Resurrection whom will resurrect the dead and bring those whom are alive and remain to him in the twinkling of an eye.

The Living Yom Kippur, Day of Atonement, whom will perform brit-milah, the wedding circumcision upon the heart of all of the Children of Yisrael, the Kiddushim/Saints upon the day that we all mourn for our savior whom was pierced for us all, then face to face to see him and to know him.

The Living Tabernacle, the one whom is the Tabernacle for his people whom came in the flesh, the Living Word of Yahuweh manifested as flesh literally whom will bring about all of the words of himself.  Perfectly, for he is Yahuweh Yahushua! 

All of the Living Moadim of YHVH.  Leviticus 23.  The feasts of YAHUWEH!!   

Follow and know these feasts which are YHVH’s feasts.  Do not follow times and seasons of man nor of the ‘Jews’ which are not ordained of Yahuweh le-olam-vaed / eternal forever.   The Moadim of Yahuweh are the Words of Yahushua!!   The LIVING TORAH, the Living New Covenant of a living being, not of written words.

If Leviticus 23 states that these are the feasts/Moadim of Yahuweh, did he do away with one ‘jot’ or one ‘tittle’ of himself?  Have the heavens and earth passed away yet?

Spirit AND Truth cannot be separated and one expect to stay in the grace of Yahushua by walking in him.  What happens to many whom come to him in that day that we meet him?, Those who cast out demons, prophesied in his name and did many mighty and wonderful works?, but, were missing something that was key to salvation? 

He says ‘depart from me you whom are’ (in the greek) anomie.  Meaning you who were Torah-less or despised the ‘law’ in KJV.  This same ‘law’ is the Living Torah whom never did away with one ‘jot’ or one ‘tittle’ of himself.  He is being EVERY word PERFECTLY or no man would have salvation for he would not be righteous if he broke any of it.  Walk in YES to whom he is and love him, love what he loves and hate what he hates.  Walk in the truth of the Spirit of the perfect Living Torah of Righteousness.  Learn of him and learn to obey.  Do it without condemnation after the Ruach HaKodesh/ Holy Spirit, to obey and to honor the one dwelling in your heart if he be so dwelling there.  None want to hear the words that we never KNEW who he WAS.  He is the perfect LIVING WORD of YAHUWEH!! YAHUSHUA!!  The LIVING TORAH was nailed to the CROSS to FULFILL EVERY WORD of whom he IS BEING!!  Erasing condemnation for those whom will obey him, to learn of him, of those things that were NEVER done away with nor changed in the least.  To WALK in him and always say YES to him in the heart, to become pure in heart, to see Abba! 

S’hema/Hear all of whom are Children of Yisrael, whom are born again of Spirit AND Truth!  There is only one body.  There is no Gentile body nor is there a ‘Jew’ body.  There is only one.  Yahuweh Yahushua YishYAH’el is ECHAD/ONE.  A body with different functions but the same body!  Our Yahushua came only for the Lost Sheep of Yisrael, to let all know that there is one body that he has grafted his sheep into.  Only ONE/ECHAD.  In this body there is neither Gentile, Jew, Greek nor any other.  These are the Saints/Kiddushim of Yahuweh called his body, his children, his ornaments, his jewels!

The days are here where those whom will follow Yahushua must become set-apart from the harlot religions and to come out of her my people that you partake not in her plagues!!  The time is here.

EliYah and the Prophets of Ba'al

In these, the last days, there have been uncovered some of the "keys" to understanding and truth. Many people have yet to realized that the most important "key" is recognizing, knowing and calling upon our Heavenly Father's Name. Notice I said NAME, singular, not plural. He has many titles and attributes but only one Name. In Zekar'Yah 14:9 (Zechariah) the Scriptures reveal "And YHWH shall be Sovereign over all the earth. In that day there shall be one YHWH and His Name One." Institute for Scripture Reseach Version (hereinafter referred to as ISR).

In First Melakim (1st Kings) Chapter 18 we find the story of EliYah (Elijah) and his "showdown" with the 450 Prophets of Baal. Up unto this point, EliYah had been hunted for far and wide by King Ahab because this man, EliYah, was really getting under the King's skin.

There are some amazing things about to be revealed in this passage. First, let me preface this by saying that Truth and Deception aren't that far apart from each other. I often liken Truth and Deception as parallel lines with Deception running about 4 feet to the left or right of Truth. If Truth is the Center Line of a 2 line highway (the straight and narrow way with destruction close at hand on either side) and you are walking or traveling only 4 feet to the left or 4 feet to the right of Truth, you are very soon to meet head on or be blindsided from behind with certain destruction. Our Messai'Yah (Messiah) said "I am the way, the truth and the life..." and we are to always stay at his feet as little children with big round eyes hanging on every word that proceeds out of His mouth. For therein alone is our Protection. When we attempt to protect ourselves under our own "knowledge" and "wisdom" we will fail miserably and suffer the consequences.
We can only receive the Protection of Our Heavenly Father (check our our study of Tehillim 91 (Psalms)

If we remain under His constant watchful eye and always remain "tender" or "soft" enough [as clay in the Potter's hand) to know that when He speaks, it is ALWAYS Truth.

It is when we believe "we are 'mature' enough to be on our own" that we get in trouble and get deceived. Therefore I must be extremely careful what I say here and that it is the revealed Truth for I am accountable for what I say and you are accountable for what you hear. All things must be "proven" and that is each our own responsibility.
As much as we want to believe that Truth and Deception are 180 degrees apart, they are not, and that is part of the deception right there.

Also, it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to understand and ACCEPT THE FACT that our Heavenly Father's Real Name has been REMOVED FROM THE BIBLES and replaced with "The LORD". The only place you can find our Heavenly Father's Name in the modern Bibles (that is all the Bible's from the last 400 years since the "history of the King James") is in the Preface of the Bible. Now how many Preachers have every preached to you from the Preface of your Bibles? Probably has never happened to you right?
Here is an example right out of the Explanation of Format of the New Open Bible, King James Version.

"The covenant name of God in the Old Testament, represented by the Hebrew consonants, YHWH, is translated "LORD" or GOD" (using all capital letters as shown), as it has been throughout the history of the King James Bible.

This revelation, when put in proper perspective will change the way you look and read the Scriptures from now on. If it doesn't, you will remain in darkness straining to see, as if in a fog to follow the "white center line" beneath your feet.

This will also dispel one of our most prevalent misconceptions of this passage and that is that we want to believe that EliYah was the equivalent to one of our most prominent and highly visible Christian evangelists of our day and the Prophets of Baal were some brand of other pagan religion such as Christians might refer to as Eastern Religions or any of the other religions not associated with true Christianity. Nothing could be further from the truth. You will see.

Let's examine this amazing story of EliYah (Elijah) now in First Kings (First Melakim) 18:17-40 using the normal King James Version that you are familiar with so you get the overview of that passage prior to seeing revealed truth.
17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, [Art] thou he that troubleth Israel?
18 And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim.
19 Now therefore send, [and] gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table.
20 So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.
21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD [be] God, follow him: but if Baal, [then] follow him. And the people answered him not a word. {opinions: or, thoughts?}
22 Then said Elijah unto the people, I, [even] I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets [are] four hundred and fifty men.
23 Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay [it] on wood, and put no fire [under]: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay [it] on wood, and put no fire [under]:
24 And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. {It is...: Heb. The word is good}
25 And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress [it] first; for ye [are] many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire [under].
26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed [it], and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But [there was] no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made. {hear: or, answer} {answered: or, heard} {leaped...: or, leaped up and down at the altar}
27 And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he [is] a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, [or] peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. {aloud: Heb. with a great voice} {he is talking: or, he meditateth} {is pursuing: Heb. hath a pursuit}
28 And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. {the blood...: Heb. poured out blood upon them}
29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the [time] of the offering of the [evening] sacrifice, that [there was] neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded. {offering: Heb. ascending} {that regarded: Heb. attention}
30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD [that was] broken down.
31 And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:
32 And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.
33 And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid [him] on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour [it] on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.
34 And he said, Do [it] the second time. And they did [it] the second time. And he said, Do [it] the third time. And they did [it] the third time.
35 And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water. {ran: Heb. went}
36 And it came to pass at [the time of] the offering of the [evening] sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou [art] God in Israel, and [that] I [am] thy servant, and [that] I have done all these things at thy word.
37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou [art] the LORD God, and [that] thou hast turned their heart back again.
38 Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that [was] in the trench.
39 And when all the people saw [it], they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he [is] the God; the LORD, he [is] the God.
40 And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.
That is an awesome story that many of us have been told or read from at a very early age. But reading it the way the translators have served it to you on a silver platter IS very misleading. There is something much deeper in here that has not been revealed to you and how a large portion of this scripture passage is a mirror image to this very day we live in for you will soon see that the "Prophets of Ba'al" (including Ba'al worship) are still in existence all around you and I each and every day.
Brace yourself, this could make you very angry or uncomfortable at least when it is revealed to you just how close to home this really comes.
Now we need to digress to a short passage in Shemoth (Exodus) 3:13-15 where Moses is asking our Heavenly Father, the Elohim (God) of Israel what he is to say the children of Israel (ISR Version):

13. ...and they say to (ask of) me, "What is His Name?" what shall I say to them?"

14. And Elohim said to Mosheh (Moses), "I am that which I am." And He said, "Thus you shall say to the children of Yisra'el, "I am has sent me to you."

15. And Elohim said further to Mosheh, "Thus you are to say to the children of Yisra'el, "YHWH Elohim ... This is My Name forever, and this is My remembrance to all generations."

Here we see that Yahweh (YHWH) indirectly answered Mosheh's question of "whom shall I say has sent me" with "I am that which I am" and "I am has sent me to you".

What our Heavenly Father told Mosheh was the MEANING OF HIS NAME first before He actually told him His Name! Yes, many people have never heard the Name, Yahweh (YHWH) and did/do not know the MEANING OF HIS NAME. Yahweh means "I am - I exist - I will be". "I will be what I will be". "I will be a burning bush", "I will be a pillar of fire by night", "I will be a cloud by day", "I will be a mighty rushing wind", etc. etc.
Yahweh was demonstrating that the MEANING of NAMES is extremely important and that He wanted His people to know what His Name meant before He actually revealed His One Name!

And in Shemoth 6:2 His One Name is reiterated again. "And Elohim spoke to Mosheh and said to him, "I am YHWH."

6:3 says "...And by my Name, YHWH, was I not known to them?" (See the question mark there?)

6:6 says "Say, therefore, to the children of Yisra'el, I am YHWH"
See also verses 7, 8, 29.

Shemoth 15:3 says "YHWH is a man of battle, YHWH is His Name."

The point being elaborated here is of extreme importance. NAMES are IMPORTANT and the MEANINGS of NAMES are equally IMPORTANT. If you take the modern Bible versions (over the last 400 plus years) you will see that "the LORD" could not possibly be our Heavenly Father's Name. It should have never been added to (Prov. 30:6) neither anything taken away (Rev. 22:19). REMOVING the One True Name of YHWH and ADDING "the LORD" is an abomination and judgment will result accordingly to His purpose.

Now we might have struck a nerve here and you might not want to proceed with the truth of the EliYah passage above.
YHWH does not mean "the LORD" it means "I am - I exist".

Also, there are two Hebrew words that do have a meaning of "lord". They are:

1) Adonai meaning "lord, master" as in a TITLE and,

2) Ba'al meaning "LORD" as in a PROPER NAME. (See any good dictionary and look up Baal. It means "LORD" plain and simple. When you say "LORD" outloud you cannot distinguish between all capital letters or all small letters, it hears the same in your ears and YHWH's ears.

Are you ready now for the truth of First Melakim 18?

EliYah and The Prophets of Ba'al

Below you will find the same passage of First Melakim 18 with the Meaning of the name of Ba'al in place of Ba'al. When you see this, you will recognize that this passage hits as close to home as any passage can get.

The following should prove to you that the people who followed the Prophets of Ba'al were a very religious people and might very well resemble many whom call themselves Christians today.

1) They BELIEVED in the One True Elohim (God).

2) They BELIEVED He would answer their prayers or they would not have said in Verse 24 "The word is good.".

3) They BELIEVED that the One True LORD God would accept their offering/sacrifice of the bull on the alter they built. He had obviously accepted their offerings before or they would have been reluctant and unwilling to attempt an unproven effort. They were, after all, Israelites, right? Of course!

4) They BELIEVED with all their hearts that The LORD (Ba'al) knew their hearts and that He would accept them just the way they were in their religious state of activities and affairs.

More on this later.

Also remember, these Scriptures were ORIGINALLY WRITTEN in HEBREW not Greek or Latin or English. When they spoke in Hebrew and "called upon the name of the LORD", they called and said the Hebrew word "Ba'al" (Hebrew meaning "Lord"). Where the English version have replaced the Hebrew Tetragrammaton YHWH (Yahweh's Name) with "LORD" or "GOD", here is the subtlety of deception and the clouding of the Truth. This REPLACEMENT did not just happen a few times; try 6823 times!!! Your King James Version, your NIV, or any of the other "modern non-restored name versions" should have YHWH in place of "the LORD" and you should at least know that where you read "Ba'al" in any version it means "the LORD" to the Hebrew people in the Hebrew language. You are about to see why EliYah was so HATED by King Ahab and the prophets of Ba'al and the people who followed the prophets of Ba'al. (See also YirmeYahu (Jeremiah) 23:26-27 and Hoshea 3:16-17).

Now, let's RE-EXAMINE the amazing story of EliYah now in First Melakim (Kings) 18:17-40:
17. And it came to be, when Ahab saw Eliyahu, that Ahab said to him, "Is that you, 0 disturber of Yisra'el?"
18. And he answered, "I have not disturbed Yisra'el, but you and your father's house, in that you have forsaken the commands of YHWH, and you have followed the ways of the Lord."
19. "And now, send and gather all Yisra'el to me on Mount Karmel, the four hundred and fifty prophets [preachers] of the Lord, and the four hundred prophets of Asherah [Easter priests], who eat at Izabel's (Jezebel's) table."
20. Ahab then sent for all the children of Yisra'el, and gathered the prophets on Mount Karmel.
21. And EliYahu came to all the people and said, "How long would you keep hopping between two opinions? If YHWH is Elohim, follow Him; and if the Lord, follow him." But the people answered him not a word.
22.And Eliyahu said to the people, "I alone am left a prophet of YHWH, but the prophets [preachers] of the Lord are four hundred and fifty men."
23. "Now let them give us two bulls. And let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, but set no fire. And I, I prepare the other bull, and shall lay it on the wood, but set no fire."
24."And you shall call on the name of your mighty one [the Lord], and I, I call on the Name of YHWH. And the Elohim who answers by fire, His is Elohim." So all the people answered and said, "The word is good." [they were in total agreement]
25. And Eliyahu said to the prophets [preachers] of the Lord, "Choose one bull for yourselves and prepare it first, for you are many. And call on the name of your mighty one, but set no fire."
26. So they took the bull which was given them, and prepared it, and called upon the name of the Lord from morning even until noon, saying, "O Lord, answer us!" But there was no voice and no one answered. And they leaped about the alter which they had made.
27. And it came to be at noon, that Eliyahu taunted them and said, "Cry aloud, for he is a mighty one; he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or it could be that he is asleep and has to be awakened!"
28. And they cried aloud, and cut themselves, according to their ruling, with knives and spears, until the blood gushed out on them.
29. And it came to be when midday was past, that they prophesied until the time of the bringing of the evening offering. But there was no voice and no one answered, and no one paying attention.
30. Then Eliyahu said to all the people, "Come closer to me." And all the people came closer to him. And he repaired the alter of YHWH that was broken down.
31. And Eliyahu took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Ya'aqob (Jacob), to whom the word of YHWH had come, saying, "Yisra'el is your name."
32. And with the stones he built an alter in the Name of YHWH. And he made a trench around the alter large enough to hold two seahs of seed.
33. And he arranged the wood, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood, and said, "Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood."
34. Then he said, "Do it a second time," and they did it a second time. And he said, "do it a third time," and they did it a third time.
35. And the water flowed around the alter, and he filled the trench with water, too.
36. And it came to be, at the time of the bringing of the evening offering, that Eliyahu the prophet came near and said, "YHWH Elohim of Abraham, Yitshaq (Isaac), and Yisra'el, let it be known today: You are the Elohim in Israel, and I Your servant, have done all these matters by Your word.
37. "Answer me, O YHWH, answer me, and let this people know that You are YHWH Elohim, and You shall turn their hearts back to You again."
38. Then the fire of YHWH fell and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench.
39. And all the people saw, and fell on their faces, and said, "YHWH, He is the Elohim! YHWH, He is the Elohim!"
40. And Eliyahu said to them, "Seize the prophets [preachers] of the Lord! Do not let them escape!" So they seized them, and Eliyahu brought them down to the wadi Qishon and slaughtered them there.

Oh, my friends, do you see? The prophets of Ba'al were none other than the preachers of our Christian churches/denominations who have fallen away from COMMANDS of YHWH, the Torah. They teach and preach a gospel of lawlessness and that the wages of sin is grace.

Notice in Verse 29 "that they prophesied until the time of the bringing of the evening offering". In other words, the prophets of the LORD BELIEVED in OFFERINGS but rejected THE APPOINTED TIME to submit the offering.

Notice in Verse 36. "And it came to be, at the time of the bringing of the evening offering,". Eliyah presented his offering AT THE APPOINTED TIME!!!

Do you know YHWH's APPOINTED TIMES? Do you know and understand His Feast
Days that were to be kept forever? Or do you SUBSTITUTE YHWH's Set-Apart SABBATH with BA'AL's DAY - The LORD's DAY - Sun-day?

Do you disobey the Father intentionally or are you trapped in traditions that you love and will not change?

Do you recognize that the Messiah, Yahshua, was NOT BORN on DEC. 25th or do you celebrate CHRISTMAS instead of the Feast of Tabernacles when "the Word was made flesh and dwelt [tabernacled] among us"?

Do you keep the "holiday" day of Astarte/Ishtar-Easter with the Priests of  Asherah/Astarte [Easter] and call it a Feast Day unto YHWH?

Remember, Aaron built a golden calf and says "Tomorrow we will have a feast day unto YHWH!" It is so easy to get caught up in what WE THINK IS ACCEPTABLE instead of JUST OBEYING HIS WORD (the TORAH) when He has told us to "JUST DO IT!",

"Just Obey Me".

If we don't KNOW His Appointed Times, how will we know or understand when we are in His Will? We won't, it is that plain and simple and that is part of what EliYah was trying to get across to the people on Mount Karmel. Get back to YHWH's word, His Ways, His Truth through a one-on-One relationship with Him or know that destruction is a certainty like what happened to the Preachers of the LORD in EliYah's day.

What a difference KNOWING AND CALLING UPON THE NAME OF YAHWEH can mean in your life.

What a difference OBEDIENCE TO YAHWEH'S TORAH can mean in your life.

When you KNOW THAT YHWH's NAME WAS REPLACED WITH THE NAME BA'AL, (BA'AL = "the LORD") you can now discern the true meaning and an accurate understanding of Scripture and the prophecy contained therein.

Only through the Ruach haQodesh (the Spirit that is set apart - Holy Spirit) can you begin to understand what our Heavenly Father intended for us to find upon much searching and prayer.

Think about this if you will. If you were separated from your parents from birth and raised by a different family and later you became of age to be on your own. When you were old enough to be on your own, you might find yourself drawn to finding your parents. The primary piece of the puzzle to finding your long lost family WOULD BE TO KNOW YOUR FATHER'S NAME and you might also need to find out if your father's name had been changed or he was being called by something other than his true name. Likewise, we were all "conceived in sin" and separated from our Heavenly Father. The ONLY WAY we can find our way back to our Heavenly Father is by KNOWING and CALLING upon the Only Name under Heaven whereby we might be rescued (saved)! The prophets of EliYah's day didn't think His Name was important so they just called him "the LORD" Ba'al. What about you?

Eliyah was there to tell, according to YHWH's timing, all the Northern Tribes of Yisra'el that their "flavor" of worshiping the one true creator was Not YAHWEH's WAY but rather it was the way of "the LORD" (Baal worship), just like today's Christian churches that are filled with idolatry, adultery, inherited lies and traditions that all unprofitable before Yahweh! It is the same for us today. We have inherited lies but now truth has been revealed and we can no longer claim ignorance as an excuse. YHWH has brought you to this point in your life to read this teaching according to His perfect plan for you. "I know the plans I have for you, declares YHWH". YermeYahu 29:11 (Jeremiah).

Eliyah was sent there by YHWH, as ONE MAN ALONE, to tell the RELIGIOUS children of Yisra'el that denying or not calling upon or praying to Yahweh, the NAME OF THE ONE TRUE ELOHIM was not going to "cut it" anymore. Calling the Heavenly Father by titles or attributes or "Ba'al" or"Adonai", "HaShem" or "the LORD" as we do in English today is just plain unacceptable once we come out of our ignorance that we have been born into.

We all know that while we were yet in ignorance, we had our prayers answered by our Heavenly Father when we called upon Him as "the LORD". Right? It is extremely hard to justify changing what we perceive is not broken. Therefore, we have a natural tendency to "stick with the proven" rather that explore what we would believe is NEW and unproven.

Friends, don't wait for the next showdown between EliYah and the Preachers of the Lord to grasp this amazing truth. The showdown is coming. EliYah is coming as one of the two witnesses "in the last days". We are living in those "last days" my friend and I am here to tell you the Spirit of EliYah is ALIVE and here to proclaim that YAHWEH IS HIS NAME and YAHWEH, HE IS THE ELOHIM!

Yes, EliYah will be hated by none other than those who, today, call themselves Christians for it is they who are the modern day Ba'al worshippers although in much ignorance. It is they to whom he is being sent to tell them these things:

1) That those who call themselves "Christians" and say Yahweh's laws are done away with, or that they are not important, or that "He knows our hearts" and He loves us and will accept us "just as we are", are now commanded to REPENT and TURN BACK TO THE FATHER'S WAYS!

2) That Ba'al worship is nothing more that "worshipping ‘GOD' our own way", "doing our own thing", "celebrating Christmas, Easter, and other Pagan holidays instead of Yahweh's Feast Days that are shadow pictures/rehearsals of prophetic fulfillment.

When pondering about the TWO WITNESSES who will raise havoc with the RELIGIOUS POWERS THAT BE on the earth in the last days raises goose bumps on my arms. Here you have Two Witnesses, EliYah and Mosheh; EliYah proclaiming that Yahweh, He is the Elohim and that Yahweh is His Name, and then you have Mosheh proclaiming that the TORAH was NEVER DONE AWAY WITH; IT WAS NEVER "NAILED TO THE CROSS". 

(THE LIVING WORD, THE LIVING TORAH WAS NAILED TO MAKE EVERY WORD OF HIMSELF THE TRUTH!!)

There you have the ministries of the Two Witnesses. But just as surely as the Two Witnesses will come, the Spirit of these Two Witnesses is being awakened in the truth seeking children of Yisra'el today. Do you see the truth here? Do you see what Religion will get you? Do you see how Christianity is the practice of RELIGION today just like the children or Yisra'el PRACTICED the worship of "the LORD" [Ba'al] in THEIR OWN WAY in their days? Our ways are not His ways, says Yahweh.

REFLECTION #1: The Prophets of the LORD were totally confident that morning that the LORD would hear their prayers and accept their offerings regardless of their handling of their spiritual affairs THEIR OWN WAY instead of YHWH's. In fact, they were just doing the "christian thing" you might say and by their resistance to the truth EliYah was preaching of the importance of calling upon the Name of YHWH, they, in fact, were exercising self-righteous rebellion against His Name and His Established Ways and His Appointed Times.

RESULT: Continuing to do it "their own way" (RELIGION) resulted in their death within hours after the acceptance of EliYah's challenge.

REFLECTION #2: King Ahab was totally confident and delighted to watch this "show" from the bleachers as great sport in his day. He was totally confident that regardless what happened down below, that he had EliYah in his site and trapped and was going to get rid of him right after the show.

RESULT: King Ahab stunned by the events of the day, did not get his way with EliYah, but instead could only go back and report to Izabel.

REFLECTION #3: The People who followed the prophets of the LORD, saw the error of the teachings of their preachers and of them being exposed in front of their very eyes and being destroyed.

RESULT: They got the message when TRUTH hit them right in front of their eyes and they responded appropriately and "ALL THE PEOPLE SAW AND FELL ON THEIR FACES, AND SAID, YHWH, HE IS THE ELOHIM! YHWH, HE IS THE ELOHIM!".

My friends, do you now see with new eyes? Can you say YHWH, HE IS THE ELOHIM!
YHWH will make known His SET APART NAME to all the world. Check out these passages in Mal'aki (Malachi):

Mal'aki 1:11 "For from the rising of the sun, even to its going down, MY NAME is great among nations. And in every place incense is presented to MY NAME, and a clean
offering. For MY NAME is great among nations," said YHWH of hosts.

1:14b "For I am a great Sovereign," said YHWH of hosts, "and MY NAME is feared among nations."

2:1-6 "And now, O priests, this command is for you. If you do not hear, and if you do not take it to heart, to give esteem to MY NAME," said YHWH of hosts, "I shall send a curse upon you, and I shall curse your blessings. And indeed, I have cursed them because you do not take it to heart." See, I shall rebuke your seed, and scatter dung before your faces, the dung of your festivals [Easter, Christmas, etc]. And you shall be taken away with it. And you shall know that I have sent this command to you, as being My covenant with Levi," said YHWH of hosts. My covenant with him was life and peace, and I gave them to him, to fear. And he feared me, and stood in awe of MY NAME. The Torah of Truth was in his mouth and unrighteousness was not found on his lips. He walked with Me in peace and straightness, and turned many away from crookedness."

3:16-18 "Then shall those who fear YHWH speak to one another, and will YHWH listen and hear, and a book of remembrance be written before Him, of those who fear YHWH, and those who think upon His Name." "And they shall be Mine," said YHWH of hosts, "on the day that I prepare a treasured possession. And I shall spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him." "Then you shall again see the difference between the righteous and the wrong, between one who serves Elohim and one who does not serve Him."

4:2 "But to you who fear MY NAME the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings. And you shall go out and leap for joy like calves from the stall.

4:4 "Remember the Torah of Mosheh, My servant, which I commanded him in Horeb for all Yisra'el - law and right rulings."

[The Spirit of the Witness of Mosheh will bring back THE REMEMBRANCE OF THE TORAH!]

4:5 "See, I am sending you EliYah the prophet before the coming of the great and awesome day of YHWH."

[The Spirit of the Witness of EliYah will bring back the REMEMBRANCE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE NAME OF YHWH!]

"Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah [Law - The Spirit of the Witness of Mosheh] or the Prophets [The Spirit of the Witness of EliYah]. I did not come to destroy but to complete." Mattithyahu 5:17.

The Torah [Mosheh] and the Prophets [EliYah] is going to be FILLED with meaning very soon before our very eyes in these last days.

YermeYahu 16:21 says
"Therefore see, I am causing them to know, this time I cause them to know My hand and My might. And they shall know that My Name is YHWH!"

That is prophecy my friend that is yet to be fullfilled in this present day. Can you see? It is happening right now all over this earth among His people. Our prayer is that He is calling you and filling you with the Spirit of EliYah. EliYah means "YHWH is my ELOHIM" and "Servant of Yah".

Praise be to Yah! Hallelu-Yah!
We sing the song, "Praise ye the Lord - Hallelu-Yah" but most people singing that don't realize they are singing "Praise ye Ba'al" in English and "Hallelu-Yah" meaning "Praise be to Yah!" in Hebrew.

========================================

Blessings and Baruch HaShem Yahuweh!

This is so true and surely knowing the 'beatings' one takes when just proclaiming Yahuweh, our Yahushua! This in knowing that our Yahushua is our salvation and even in reality the Living Torah of Yahuweh and all of his Words!, whom never did away with any of himself nor changed any of himself. This Living Torah whom came as flesh, our Yahushua, was nailed to the cross to make the words of himself 100% the truth, to make our Abba perfect in his Word!, which even makes it possible to have the same perfect Torah of Righteousness applied to the altar of our heart by his blood flow of the Ruach HaKodesh! (Because he made Abba's words of himself the perfect truth in performing them as our Living Passover lamb!!) Knowing whom is truly dwelling inside of the heart and then walking in YES to everything that he is understanding or not, and always answering YES when he reveals more of himself to us! Knowing that now following after the Ruach HaKodesh that there is no condemnation in him, to know that outwardly we obey as best as we can with no condemnation for not being perfect in our own flesh, we celebrate and honor the one who is the I AM of the heart! But, only for those walking after the Ruach, walking in YES and walking to love him, to love what he loves, and to hate what he hates. A better summation - 1 John Ch. 1, John Ch 1.

And still, to reach out to all in the Love of our Messiah Yahushua still and to answer back to those giving back hatred with Love still. For if we speak the words of Yahuweh Yahushua we proclaim him and rejoice for taking the beatings for him!

Another thought on witnesses. Could this be a showing of what will happen in these days ahead? A shadow picture of the 70 elders in the shamayim vs. two that were still alive and remain upon the earth for the purpose of Yahuweh?

Numbers 11:23 And YHVH said to Moshe, Is YHVH's Arm too short? (Yahushua) You shall see now whether My Word (Yahushua the Living Word) meets you, or not. 24 And Moshe went out, and told the people the words of YHVH, and gathered the seventy men of the zechanim of the people, and set them all around the Tabernacle. 25 And YHVH came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Ruach that was upon him, and gave it to the seventy zechanim: and it came to pass, that, when the Ruach rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease. 26 But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the Ruach rested upon them; and they were among those listed, but went not out to the Tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp. 27 And there ran a young man, and told Moshe, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. 28 And Yahoshua the son of Nun, the assistant of Moshe, one of his young men, answered and said, My master Moshe, forbid them. 29 And Moshe said to him, Are you jealous for my sake? O that all YHVH's people were neviim, and that YHVH would put His Ruach upon them!

Hallel Yahuweh, and may all of us experience the Ruach of Yahuweh in his power and in his strength, in his Love and Shalom!  We will all need to get rid of our rough edges and our own ways in the days ahead to stay right where our Yahuweh Yahushua wants us to be!  Looking and longing for his appearing!  Doing what he told us to do! Reach out to all and especially the lost, to proclaim the Besorah of good news to all.  To take the beatings not to answer back in like kind but to set our faces as flint and to cut through the distraction of the enemy, to love our Yahushua still and keep on proclaiming him!

Shalom.  MYK
