As the book of the Revelation comes to a close, we are left with some very important words. Keep his commandments, know his Torah, and make yourself ready to be the bride of the King. He is coming quickly. Join Michael Rood for the final episode in the series From Here to Eternity – Yeshua’s Famous Last Words: Amen, Emet, Truth.

I don't think you are right, but you would need to understand the strictures of 'discipleship' in the Hebrew sense.
One of the singularly most important things that Yeshua did was to redirect the authority of Moses back to Moses himself - The authority claimed by the 'disciples' of Moses was not theirs. Thus all the sects, disciplines, pronouncements, everything used to change the words of Moses, the entire tradition of the Jews, the basis of Rabbinical authority, was instantly nullified.
He told his followers not to do as the Pharisees said, but to do what Moses said.
Does it make sense then that he would endorse his own disciples to change his own words? No. If you are a disciple of Yeshua, you are a disciple of Yeshua. Not Paul, John, or James, or any other.
Thus the 'words written in red' have to have precedence. And that severely limits how one can interpret his disciples.
Someone is deluded beyond hope to not realize that treating people like that is not going to win friends and influence people.
I certainly would not be convinced of the genuineness of his beliefs, or the desirability of them.
Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
Foul indeed.
I do understand.
I like to point out the obvious, though.
And it’s not difficult to discern the spirit that inspires those kinds of comments and vitriol.
I went back and checked some of your posts, which is what I should have done before questioning you. You seem like and honest Joe and I do apologize for taking your comments wrongly Friend...
Sorry,
I don't know but have a suspicion that it has to do with many folks here making comments about a man in his advancing years dressing up like he was in a church Passion play.
But in all fairness, he only dresses as such for his videos it would seem. He does clothe himself in a sports jacket from time to time.
LOL, you did call it. I won’t play poker with you ever!:)
Yep the JEDP and “Q source” types hate hearing about 1st Century anything written.
The reality is those JEDP and Q source types were soundly refuted early in the 20th century but we still have hanger ons hiding in dusty secular university “theology” departments. What I find interesting is all the data from those JEDP and Q source types you see now on the internet are kept fresh by atheist websites.
Watching the history of these guys it wasn’t all that difficult. A person doesn’t have to read through the thread too long to discern the spirit that drives.
That's rich, coming from one of the group who think nothing of bearing false witness. What spirit does that come from? But then I suppose its just another of the Almighty's commandments that doesn't apply to someone believing in a grace perversion.
Whether modern or ancient, the meaning remains the same - A letter can be it's 'symbol' or it's 'meaning' (or it's number). The meanings as presented are a bit terse, but here is my understanding:
yud(arm, hand, fist) hey (look, reveal, behold) waw (tent peg, nail) hey ((look, reveal, behold)

Your opinion, nothing more! I feast on the "meat" of Scripture daily and have for over forty-five years. It sounds to me like you are the one who selectively reads Scripture and holds fast to an accursed gospel because it tickles your ears and gives you a reason to boast of your own merit rather than the true grace of God. Grace means unearned, undeserved, unmerited. You don't get to add your filthy rags of works righteousness to the perfect righteousness of Christ and expect Almighty God to honor them. The Good Shepherd knows His sheep and they know Him. His voice they follow and not that of the hireling. The hireling flees when the wolf approaches and cares not for the sheep. The Lord Jesus Christ gave His life for His sheep. He gives to them eternal life and they shall never perish neither shall any man pluck them from His hands.
On another subject it seems Pope Francis was a casket picker in his early days:

Thanks for the article. Very interesting. I am matching what was posited there with the really ancient pictographs and all the possible various meanings.
Pried it out of the guy’s cold dead hands he did! A source of pride for all good Catholics!
Don't do the same with 'Yeshua/Yahushua', or you might really freak out. : )
Accepted with a smile.
Thanks!
