As was in the beginning of Christianity, the same deceptions are showing up at the end (Just before Jesus returns). God’s Word can keep us from these false teachers and false prophets. But we have to be Berean, and not be pressured to accept these heresies simply because the tide of Christianity is going out in the West. Jesus forewarned us...”will I find faith?”
Keep telling truth!
I never understood why Christians want to do the “Jew Thing.” It reminds me of Japanese cowboys.
Them anti-missionaries have been around a long time read the letter to the Hebrews.
Thank God for pastor Bill. I have been wondering, why is it no pastor seems to have the courage to sound the alarm about the Noahide laws?
It seems all this Bolshevic lawlessness we are seeing, serves to prepare the way for the Noahide laws...as the answer for the lawlessness.
If the lawlessness gets bad enough, on a scale greater than what we have already seen, the public will be casting about for anything that will alleviate the situation.
Enter the Noahide laws. For those who do NOT know their Bibles, it will be just what they are looking for. They are already a law in America, not sure about other countries, waiting for the right time to spring them on an unsuspecting public weary with all the lawlessness.
There are Karaite Jews who reject the Talmud and only rely on the OT for truth. However there are only about 50,000 worldwide. They argue that since the written Torah was lost during the Babylonian captivity there could be no way the oral Torah (if there even was one) could survive.
Well written. Next to no one has heard of ben Zakkai when he is such a pivotal figure
Pinging a poignant article by bill
Ping about the Noahide movement.
The KJV chrstian bible is self-evidently true because it is the bible of the chosen holy special Anglo-American chosen people. Those who chose to be born into Anglo-American Protestant culture are to be commended for being born into the ethno-culture that has the One True Bible. Just think, they could have been born into cultures that use the Septuagint, Peshitta, or Ethiopian bible and that is all so self-evidently wrong (what were these other people thinking?). You can be sure that the KJV is the one and only true Divinely inspired scripture because "non-chrstians" who have breathed in the doctrines of Anglo-Protestantism from their very birth eventually when hearing a verse quoted for the blue-millionth time suddenly feel electricity going up and down their backs, making them sure-enough adult converts to chrstianity just like the first christians who also were raised on the KJV and eventually got "saved."
Never mind that the Torah is the one and only Divine revelation in all of human history known (not merely believed) to be true because G-d revealed Himself before from two and a half to three million people, nothing that ever happened before and will never happen again. Okay, it was true once but then Galatians came along and Galatians is self-evidently a continuation of the Jewish Bible because they all wound up together in the KJV, the self-evidently one true version. If it weren't true, G-d would certainly not have permitted it to be added to the KJV. The very fact that it's in the Protestant bible "proves" that it is true, since there is no external standard that may be used to determine scriptural canon other than the fact that when hearing the True Bible one feels funny and gets happy. Surely G-d wouldn't let people feel funny or get happy if it were not true.
Never mind that Noahides are actually forbidden to observe the Torah (doing so is stealing from `Am Yisra'el and cause one to lose one's portion in the World to Come).
Never mind that for fifteen hundred years all chrstianity did was was replace one legal/ritual/ceremonial system (one from the Bible) with a new one that is of totally post-Biblical origin. We know that the very moment the last apostle died everyone got out their Thomas Nelson KJVs and began trying to painfully and carefully reconstruct the "new testament church" like a paleontologist trying to piece together a dinosaur skeleton, and that anyone who didn't immediately do so was introducing the "doctrines and commandments of men" into the now lost Truth which can only be reconstructed by consulting the "new testament" that wasn't even canonized yet. That their reconstruction project produced nothing but a blue zillion different churches that no one can agree on doesn't matter. Scripture has been providentially preserved into the now authoritative KJV (all those foreigners better learn seventeenth century English!). G-d could do this because He is G-d. But He couldn't providentially preserve any authentic oral teachings because He isn't powerful enough, and all the oral traditions are self-evidently wrong because they contradict the one true Anglo-Protestant religion which alone is self-evidently true. And besides, don't worry, because the Holy Spirit sees to it that you interpret it correctly. Of course, the same Holy Spirit seems to be telling all those other people to interpret it differently from you, but they're wrong because G-d would see to it that only you are right. All those other people should obviously give up their own interpretations and accept yours like G-d wants them to.
Never mind that chrstianity, whether historical or "reconstructed," all claimed that all the things G-d once commanded are not forbidden, and everything He once forbade is now permitted, if not optional. That could not possibly have any connection whatsoever that now the whole world is facing a situation where what was once commanded is now forbidden and what was once forbidden is now commanded. That could not possibly be the ultimate price for replacing Biblically-mandated rituals with post-Biblical ones two thousand years ago. So in the midst of filth and sin on a scale never before known let us attack the observance of G-d's Commandments as "works righteousness."[/sarcasm]
For over twenty years I have defended Fundamentalist Protestants from their hypocritical enemies on this forum because, for all their problems, they at least realize that when G-d says that something happened, then it actually happened. Intellectually I know that to be consistent these people must eventually attack the G-d-given Torah and Noachide Laws as well (since this life is apparently all about salvation through a legal loophole). But it still hurts.
What next . . . that the real Mashiach is going to exalt himself over everything that is called G-d? That's funny, since so far the only "messiah" to do this is your Nazarene prophet.
Ugh.
