WARNING! This article is going to be really tough. It is not written out of anger or disappointment. I am writing this article because of the lies, deceptions, and outright false teachings that are being spewed out by religious leaders. It is time that some of us stand up and say, ENOUGH! This is going to be a tough read because you probably like your preacher and you hope that he isn’t leading you down a path to destruction. That’s a tough reality to confront.
I am going to start out with one of my favorite verses that is an omen to today’s world.
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 “and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth/torah/instruction, that they might be saved. And for this cause YHWH shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth/torah/instructions, but had pleasure in unrighteousness/sin.
Read that passage again.
I am certain that I will be crucified over this article but we all know that there is something seriously wrong with our religious system. It ain’t working and I’m going to try to give you some insight as to why and wake you up
This article is going to be numerous paragraphs going over various things from many of my writings and research over the years, there may or may not be any symbiotic relationships from one paragraph to another. I am simply trying to get everything together concerning religions.
Today, I want to examine what exactly “The Kingdom of YHWH” and “The Kingdom of Heaven” is and see if scripture actually agrees with and confirms the accepted, long-held translation among religions and the followers of Yeshua. What evidence is there that Yeshua has already or is going to usher in a “Kingdom of Heaven” or a “Kingdom of YHWH” in the future or is it already here today? Can we truly and honestly, according to scripture, verify if both “The Kingdom of YHWH” and/or “The Kingdom of Heaven” are correct translations and if not, could there have been an agenda behind the currently accepted paradigm that is generally accepted by churchgoers and /or followers of Yeshua. Are these “kingdoms” independent from one another or could they both be the same? And lastly, is the translation “kingdom” even accurate; if not, what should the correct translation be and if this translation is not accurate, how can it impact what we have come to believe concerning these phrases? This study will truly be an eye-opening article that may surprise you, encourage you, and may change how you think about everything that you have been taught in organized religion.
Matthew 3:1-2 “In those days came Yochanan ha-matbil (John the Baptizer) preaching (testifying) in the wilderness of Judea and saying “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Matthew 4:17 “From that time Yeshua began to preach (testify), and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
Matthew 9:35 “and Yeshua went about all of the cities and villages teaching in the synagogues and testifying of the good news of the kingdom”
Acts 28:30-31 “and Shaul (Paul) dwelt two whole years in his own hired house and received all that would come into him preaching (testifying) the kingdom of YHWH and teaching those things which concern Yeshua Ha Mashiak (Yeshua The Messiah)”
Luke 17:20-21 “and when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of YHWH should appear, he (Yeshua) answered and said, The kingdom of YHWH comes not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or lo, there! for behold, the kingdom of YHWH is within you.”
John 18:36 “Yeshua answered, My kingdom is not of this world (Roman ‘Christian’ / Jewish ‘Judaic’): if my kingdom were of this system, then would my servants fight that I should not be delivered to the Jews? But now my kingdom is not from there.”
So far, so good. The verses above are from the King James version directly. All of these verses convey an element of familiarity as many of us have read and re-read these verses over and over again and have established a solid mental picture or understanding concerning “The Kingdom”, or have we?
Here is what we have been taught by our Christian teachers.
No doubt that we have all read the above scriptures time and time again. These particular scriptures speak of a “Kingdom” that, as we have been taught, is to come one day, in the future, but not now. A “Kingdom” that all believers in “Jesus” will live in and rule over other believers. We have been told, and we believe, that this “Kingdom” will come immediately after the “tribulation“. “God” will then usher in his new “Kingdom on earth” “by causing a great city to fall from the sky” and land on Jerusalem. His “church”, according to religious teachings, the “ecclesia”, “his bride”, will assist “Jesus” in ruling over this new “Kingdom of Heaven” on the earth in those “future days.” The “Christian church people” will occupy special places of authority over other “Christian people” who had less faith or who were not as good or as nice to others as they were in their lives.
This is what I was raised to believe. My father was a preacher and he taught all of these things over and over and over. I believed him to my core. He had me so fearful of going to hell or not qualifying to go to heaven, “The Kingdom of God”, for being a bad boy that I did everything I could to live right and study the “Bible”, basically, memorizing it, but no matter what I did, I could never measure up to my dad’s standard. But that is generally the way it is in homes under most religious leaders. It is my desire to correct his mistakes by teaching the truth in a hopeful way.
The late teenage years in my life was a turning point for me. I didn’t know it at the time, but YHWH had created an environment that was very hostile to me personally and caused me to abandon “The Church.” Looking back, I am so grateful that he did this. Growing up in this environment was very, very destructive to me and yet, ironically, I kept looking to the scriptures for answers for the next 30 years. It took those 30 years for YHWH to position me into a place in my life where my childhood religious views and experiences no longer affected me negatively and gave me enough time to do my homework and recover from a lot of things spiritually and mentally. By the time I was 51 years old, I was primed and ready for service, that means that I was a broken vessel and my life was ready to become anything YHWH wanted. I had friends and people that meant a lot to me, but I was absolutely alone. It was at that point that YHWH showed up in my life in all of his majesty, I literally fell on my face in the gravel driveway and for the first time in my life, I knew that my life and my soul were never going to be the same and scared to death.
As I was studying the question posed in the title of this article, I ran across some rather intriguing information from another brother from another mother. I studied his article a few days ago and it really hit home with me. The foundation for this article was formed by another man whom I also have a great deal of admiration for. I never understood why we were being “trained” to prepare for the next life in “Christianity” and escaping a fictitious place called “hell” instead of focusing on the life that we have been given now. I always noticed that Yeshua did not come to teach those who were physically dead, nor did he come to teach “the world,” he came to teach those who were physically alive and those who belong to him, Israel, not Christians.
So anyway, let’s jump right in and I will show you what I mean.
The word that has been mistranslated and used in scripture is “Kingdom”, when the word should have been translated “KingSHIP”, not “Kingdom.” This completely changes the perceived meaning of every one of these scriptures and actually opens the door to understanding other scripture.
“IS IT KINGDOM OR KINGSHIP?”
So, is this translation “Kingship” accurate or has it actually been correctly translated as “Kingdom?” On the surface, it may same to be a minor detail, however, the difference between kingship and kingdom is actually profound, especially when it comes to understanding Scripture.
A kingdom is a physical location or a place with boundaries like a country, county, city, nation or even something as simple as a homestead. The word “kingship”, is not physical at all. A “kingship” is not a physical location or object. A “kingship” does not have boundaries nor can it be seen, nor can it be touched by physical means. But rather, a “kingship” is “a state of mind”, “a state of being”, it is “the condition of a mental nature of understanding and or interpreting unseen things”. Each one of us, through our “nephesh/soul,” mentally exists within a world based upon our mental interpretation. Each mental interpretation is based upon our own individual understanding and perception of our environment over a period of time. As a result, our perception of our reality establishes our “state of our soul/nephesh” that each of us exists in on a daily basis. So, one could argue that each of us individually, exists mentally, “state of our soul/nephesh”, within our own sense of reality. Therefore, our perceived reality is actually our own reality that we believe we live in. A “state of mind” is a Greek/pagan concept of the makeup of man/Adam. See my article “Basar, Nephesh, Ruach and Lev”
If Yeshua was referencing a physical kingdom, then an intelligent person would have to discerned that he was not being truthful because a kingdom cannot sneak up on you without being seen, that would be ridiculous. There is no such thing as an invisible Kingdom. Remember that Yeshua was speaking to individuals who were not part of his kingship. These were people who were clearly on the outside of his kingship, as a result they were not able to perceive or understand what exactly he was speaking of. But Yeshua said that his kingship “comes without observation.” Therefore, this must be a condition of the mind and the entering in of this kingship would be on the condition of the heart/desire/lev or rather a “state of heart/desire/lev” for those who are entering into this kingship.
It is interesting that the phrase “Kingship of Heaven” only appears in the Brit ha-dash-a and does not ever appear in the TaNakh.
The Hebrew word “malak” is translated “kingdom” (to reign) or “melak” (king).
The Greek word: Basileuj (basileus) is “king” and The Greek basileia (basileia) is wrongly translated “kingdom” by the KJV. However, “basileia” correctly translated means “kingship” or “reign” (not “kingdom”).
Greek words with the suffix “ia” generally always refer to a “state of being”, a condition (as in the english words, abstentia, amnesia, mania, insomnia, euphoria, phobia, ecclesia etc.). In other words, basileia, is a condition or situation of a “Kings reign”. Basileia also infers to include the body of people that are associated with that particular reign.
Thus, “kingship” or “reign,” is a condition of ruling over the soul/nephesh and hearts/lev of a person or group of people rather than a physical place. Kingships only exist in the soul/nephesh and hearts/lev of people. Yeshua’s Kingship is determined by fidelity of faith in the soul/nephesh, hearts/lev and actions of his people. The kingship of Heaven exists wherever YHWH’s people are and those who honor Yeshua as their King.
Caesar had a Kingdom and his people were part of Caesar’s kingship. In other words, those who belonged to Caesars kingdom, had to “think” or “perceive” Caesar and his kingdom in a certain way. If anyone decided to not acknowledge this perception, they were usually killed. So, basically, if you refused to perceive mentally and acknowledge and participate in the Kingship of Caesar, then you were not allowed to exist within the Kingdom of Caesar, Rome, you would be thrown out or just killed.
Another word that we need to focus on at this moment is the Greek word “Ecclesia” (suffix “ia”) and is another word that denotes a condition of unseen origin. Ecclesia has falsely been interpreted has the English word “Church” which is a physical body and cannot honestly be a correct translation. Ecclesia is one of those Greek words ending in “ia” and means, literally, “the called-out” from among those who were/are lost in darkness. These are the “ecclesia” who are called out by the Spirit: those who have heard the “call” and have accepted the new life of the kingship of Yeshua – their new identity. The “ecclesia” is the body or group of people who live under the condition of which they were called.
So therefore, “Basileia” means a “reign”…not “kingdom.” When you read the mistranslated words “Kingdom of God” in the KJV, it should have been correctly translated “The Reign of YHWH” (i.e., Yeshua’s reign established by YHWH). Those who accept and follow the “Reign of Yeshua” (or rather the “Kingship of Yeshua”) are literally part of Yeshua’s reign. (i.e. basileia). Those that are “in” the reign, those who have decided to come out of the world actually embody the “Reign of Yeshua”. These people are the spiritual stones (building blocks) of the spiritual Temple of YHWH and the New Jerusalem referenced in Revelation chapter 21.
19 Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of YHWH; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Yeshua Ha-mashiak himself being the chief cornerstone; 21 in whom all the building fitly framed together grows into a holy temple unto YHWH: 22 In whom you also are built together for a habitation of YHWH through his spirit.
Ephesians 2:19-22
5 You also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to YHWH by Yeshua Ha Mashiak.
I Peter 2:5
The verses from the King James version that calls “the Kingdom of YHWH” should be “the Reign of YHWH.” In the Messianic writings the “Kingship/Reign” refers to the fact that Yeshua is reigning now, and that we are included in his Reign, now. Not in some far off Fantasy world that is introduced after our death. His Reign does not come “with observation” (i.e., with physical observance). Rather it came as a spiritual condition in the soul/nephesh and hearts/lev of those who believe in him and are willing to be obedient to his word and be faithful, by fidelity, meaning that their actions back up their beliefs, they talk the talk and walk the walk.
His “Kingship” exists, Yeshua is our Reigning King, right now, today. It has existed for 2000 years as of this writing and Yeshua has been reigning over the soul/nephesh and hearts/lev of his people who have been called out and have heard and responded in a manner consistent with the requirements to exist with in that group ever since He ascended to his Throne… as recorded in Matthew 28:18 and Acts chapters 1 and 2.
Let’s re-read these verses with this new, correctly translated word, “kingship” and see if we come up with a different understanding:
__________
1 In those days came Yochanan ha-matbil (John the Baptizer) preaching (testifying) in the wilderness of Judea 2 and saying “Repent, for the kingship of heaven is at hand.”
Matthew 3:1-2
17 From that time Yeshua began to preach (testify), and to say, “Repent: for the kingship of heaven is at hand.”
Matthew 4:17
35 and Yeshua went about all of the cities and villages teaching in the synagogues and testifying of the good news of the kingship
Matthew 9:35
30 and Shaul (Paul) dwelt two whole years in his own hired house and received all that would come into him
31 preaching (testifying) the kingship of YHWH and teaching those things which concern Yeshua Ha Mashiak (Yeshua The Messiah)
Acts 28:30-31
20 and when he was demanded of the Pharisees. when the kingship of YHWH should appear, he (Yeshua) answered and said, “The kingship of YHWH comes not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or lo, there! for behold, the kingship of YHWH is within you.
Luke 17:20-21
36 Yeshua answered, “My kingship is not of this world (Roman ‘Christian’ / Jewish ‘Judaistic’) : if my kingdom were of this system, then would my servants fight that I should not be delivered to the Jews? But now my kingship is not from there.
John 18:36
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingship of heaven; but he that doeth the will (keep his 10 words) of my Father which is in heaven
Matthew 7:21
16 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingship of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Matthew 16:19
13 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingship of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Matthew 13:33
47 Again, the kingship of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
Matthew 13:47
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingship of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Matthew 13:11
23 Therefore is the kingship of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.
Matthew 18:23
13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingship of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
Matthew 23:13
A further examination of this revelation concerning the “kingship” addressed in Matthew 23:13 reveals a very intense and frightening aspect that Yeshua specifically addresses in this passage. Any time that the phrase “woe unto you” is used, especially by Yeshua, you had better watch out, because this is a fierce warning to whomever he is addressing.
In Matthew 23:13, Yeshua is addressing the scribes and the Pharisees that since they have distorted the words of YHWH to the people, they are causing confusion among the people. As a direct result of this confusion, the people were not able to obtain sufficient information to realize that there was indeed a “kingship”, much less the requirements necessary to enter in. To make matters worst, because the Pharisees had done this thing, the Pharisees also, because of their hypocrisy and false teachings, were not allowed to enter into the “kingship of YHWH” and as a result, Yeshua rebuked them for their failure to teach properly.
The failure to teach properly and confuse the people makes them, the Pharisees back then and the Rabbis, Preachers and the purveyors of the doctrines of devils. Because these people teach the doctrines of devils, they do not and cannot belong to YHWH, much less be allowed to enter into The Kingship of YHWH because they misrepresent our King.
What I find amazing is that all churches are guilty of this very same hypocrisy, failure to discern and teach their congregations properly. Instead of translating the words correctly, the clergy has elected to translate in a way that deceives, for whatever reason whether intentional or out of ignorance, and then they promote a new unscriptural, false concept in order to give the impression to the masses that the churches and the clergy are needed for society to function and that they somehow control access to a “kingdom” that they themselves, preachers and priests, have falsely promoted and even if that kingdom was a reality, they would never be allowed to abide in that kingdom because of their pagan heretical Zoroastrianistic and Mithraic doctrines. Just this one aspect verifies that all who teach these doctrines, as well as many others, are not abiding in The Kingship of YHWH but rather are outside of the camp with the dogs and are false teachers and preachers who are promulgating the doctrines (vain imaginations) of devils. Therefore one must conclude that these Church sanctioned false teachers, priests and creatures from all denominations of Christianity are in fact, Ben-a Ha-satan, “sons of the devil” just as Yeshua called them.
It is a very importance to note that all man-made religious leaders are ordained by men either through each other, self arrogance, or institutions established and maintained my men. Most man ordained ministers have been certified and taught under a theological professor. Now, let’s stop and think about what that phrase “Theological professor” means. This is a man who is trained in theological ideas. Theological ideas, institutionally, usually involves the study of several pagan concepts that are overlaid and blended into an established”Church “theology specific to a particular denomination of Christianity. This practice is called Hellenism and is a mixing of religions. We must be vigilant in understanding that the followers of YHWH are not involved in religion in any form. The followers of YHWH simply have a personal relationship with their creator and other people of like souls/nephesh and hearts/lev. The only rules that the followers of YHWH are the conditions established in his word and they are written on the hearts/lev of his people.
Thus, we see that Yeshua’s Kingship (the Kingship/Reign of YHWH/Heaven) had certain earmarks, here are just a few:
The kingship is “at hand” (in the present)
The kingship is announced as “good news”
The kingship involves Yeshua Ha Mashiak
The kingship came “without observation”
The kingship is “within” those who heard (acted on) it
The kingship is “present but unnoticed” by most people and
The kingship is “not of any earthly government system”
The kingship is “unshakable”
The kingship is “mysterious (unknowable to those outside)”
The kingship is “self propagating”
This is scripture 101, simple word for word basic elementary scripture. These are the words from scripture and they tell a story that is profoundly different from the stories that have been taught in the churches and deceiving people for centuries.
The churches are teaching their congregations that “one day soon”, the “Kingdom of God” or the “Kingdom of Heaven” will come and you need to be ready. This sets the stage for the next section.
CONFUSION
A key to understanding the scriptures above explaining the “Kingship of YHWH” is that virtually every western minded person does NOT understand it, cannot understand it, and what is worst than anything, has no desire to understand what the “kingship of YHWH” is. Entering into “The Kingship of YHWH” is a matter of each of us individually accepting YHWH as our Elohim AND exhibiting the behavior of his Son, Yeshua, and recognizing Yeshua as our King. We must keep the words of YHWH and walk, live out our lives as Yeshua lived, all the way to the end of our lives. All of this goes back to being obedient. Disobedience and excuses were the very reason that Adam and Eve (Hawa) were ejected from the Garden (gan a-dan) and caused the “falling away” of man from the original “Kingship of YHWH.” Yeshua opened the door, that was closed at the garden, to that very “Kingship of YHWH” to allow us, the “ecclesia” (called out ones) to come back into a right relationship with YHWH through teshuva.
Let me stop right here and make a comment regarding the ejection of Adam and Eve from the garden. Because both Adam and Eve made a conscious decision and a physical effort to ignore YHWH, when he told them not to eat the fruits of a certain tree, Adam and Eve violated the only condition that YHWH placed upon them to allow them to live and flourish in the garden. As a result of their rebellion, YHWH had no other alternative but to remove them from his house. Removing Adam and Eve from his house did not mean in any way that YHWH did not love them, they were removed from the house in order to protect them. YHWH knew that if Adam and Eve stayed in the garden in rebellion and ate of the tree of life that they would live forever in a state of darkness and could never be redeemed back to the fullness of light. So, as an act of love, YHWH, had to remove Adam and Eve from the garden.
The only requirement for man to return to “the Kingship of YHWH”, or rather “The Garden” which is planted in the soul/nephesh, is summed up in one scripture that Solomon wrote after pondering all the things of soul/nephesh/life, and realizing life’s vanity, emptiness and the uselessness of human activity in the accumulation of gold and possessions and the desires of man’s flesh had been analyzed, Solomon came to this one conclusion toward the end of his soul/nephesh/life.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear YHWH, and keep his words: for this is the whole duty of man. For YHWH shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”
Now let us examine, for just a second, a sister “Kingship” that is addressed in the same scriptures, “The Kingship of Heaven”. Is it the same or is it different. The answer is yes and no. “The Kingship of Heaven” refers to “where” the Kingship is located. When “heaven” is referenced in scriptures, it is usually referencing “in the mind.” “The Kingship of Heaven” and “The Kingship of YHWH” is one and the same and is “within us”, “in the soul/nephesh and heart/lev through the spirit/wind/ruach.”The Kingship of Heaven resides in our inner most parts, the heart/lev. Whereas, “The Kingship of YHWH” tells us who it belongs to. So they are different in one sense, but they are one and the same in another sense. Therefore they could be used interchangeably. The only exception that I would have with that would be, if you need to establish ownership, you would properly use the phrase “The Kingship of YHWH” whereas if you intend to establish location, you may well use the phrase “The Kingship of Heaven.”
Christian teachers and preachers and Rabbis have created all kinds of fanciful, imaginative teachings regarding their interpretation of “The Kingdom of God/Heaven.” Ridiculous stories of good and evil space angels that are going to wage a war in earth’s orbit for the power and dominion over earth and its inhabitants. Of course, in their stories (their vain imaginations), their Greek “God” will prevail. Then a very special Greek Christ, the Christ of hundreds of Greek Christ’s known as “Jesus”, will mount up on his white horse and will come into the atmosphere with the “Church or rather the Christians” on white horses to slay the evil militaries that will gather to fight against the Greek leader Christ, Jesus, in a great valley and with the Greek leader Christ, Jesus’s breath, this Greek leader Christ, Jesus, will consume them and the enemies blood will flow like a river all over this valley. It is at that moment that all evil men and fallen angels will be destroyed and then the “Christians who followed the Greek head Christ, Jesus” will be allowed to walk up and down golden streets and play harps for the rest of eternity.
Judaism and Christianity as well as numerous pagan doctrines, specifically Zoroastrianism teach that the Kingdom that they speak of is off in the distant future, it will come after we die they say. The problem with passing this off as something that happens in the future after we die is a very dangerous teaching because no one gets a second chance after we physically die.
Think about the absurdity of what the clergy is teaching and how they, in-your-face blatantly teach falsehoods. They narcissistically stand up on their elevated podiums above you and present themselves as if they are all knowing and have exclusive access to god and possess the authority to talk down to you every week as if they are the only ones with answers. They lie and tell us that that no one is required to keep the words of YHWH any longer, as contained in scripture. It is very important that you understand this, these very Christian teachers and preachers have completely misunderstood or twisted the teachings of Paul, as Peter warned concerning those who are unlearned and undisciplined. The Christian doctrine specifically says that the laws and or instructions of the Old Testament in its entirety was nailed to the cross and no longer applies to our lives today. In fact, and I have personally experienced this, the Christian preacher’s are adamant concerning anyone who chooses to live their lives in accordance to the instructions that YHWH put in place so that we can live in his presence and with his blessings. Let me tell you that this is a blatant lie that has been promoted since the 3rd century and billions of people have fallen for this one lie alone.
These very Christian teachers and preachers will tell you that if you keep the instructions that are contained in the Old Testament that you are now treading on the blood of the central Greek Christ, “Jesus”, and have voluntarily chosen to go back under the law which, according to them, leads to death. Therefore, according to what they teach their congregations and believe is that anyone who follows the instructions that yeah how specifically required to be in his presence will go straight to Hell, they will not pass go and they will not collect $200 as my former stepdad would say as he was preaching. This doctrine comes straight out of Zoroastrianism and Mithraism and other pagan doctrines and has been adopted or rather Hellenized into a few religions such as Judaism and specifically, Christianity in all denominations including non-denominations.
These religious organizations, never understanding that “The Kingship of Heaven” is here now, today and has been here all along. The Jews missed their messiah 2000 years ago, Yeshua showed up as prophesied and yet they rejected him because he didn’t fit the “criteria” that they were expecting. The jews were anticipating a military leader and because he came as a humble servant, they rejected him. They could not comprehend the “Kingship” that he represented and so he was ruthlessly tortured and crucified. Just like it was then, billions of people have missed and are missing the “Kingship” that is in place today, right now.
Just as Yeshua said to the Pharisees of his days, “But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingship of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.” In proper modern english, Yeshua said: “You Pharisees, you shut people out of being able to enter into the Kingship of Heaven by failing to teach them properly. As a result of your desire to keep power over others, neither do you desire to enter into his Kingship either, but what is really bad is that you will not, because you do not teach properly, allow others to go in as well.”
So, the people that were taught by these Pharisees had no knowledge of the concept and therefore were not able to enter in. As far as I am concerned, this is a mass genocide of the lost sheep of Israel perpetrated by all of Christianity and other religions, plain and simple. This is why the purveyors or rather teachers of the scriptures will be held to a higher standard on the last great day of judgment. These men have perpetrated the most heinous of crimes against humanity by misrepresenting the words of YHWH and will cause the spiritual destruction of virtually the whole of the human race.
A Christian doctrine that is very popular among followers is the idea that there is going to be a war in space or in the Holy land or a massive square block with 12 stoned foundations is going to come flying out of the cosmos and fall onto Jerusalem reeks of pagan mythology. This is all metaphors and idioms. “The Christian Church” is, by its own admission and documented in its own libraries if anyone wishes to read and understand where are these concepts have come from that are going to directly impact your future, a collection of thousands of pagan religions around the world and over a period of 1700 years. This Christian collection of numerous pagan cultures and religions has mixed thousands of mythological concepts and ideas into the minds of their congregations.
By conditioning their people to accept such pagan mythological understandings, these very unlearned and undisciplined preachers have essentially eliminated any possibility that any of their laity will ever enter into YHWH’s rest or even comprehend the existence and reality of “The Kingship of YHWH” in its current glory and will die expecting to go to heaven. It is important at this point to know that Yeshua told us that no one was in heaven except he who came from heaven, speaking of himself. What he meant here, is that he came from the mind of the father, not from a physical place believed to be Heaven. This is how YHWH foreknew his son and prepared a body for him. Because Yeshua existed in the kingship of YHWH, “in the mind of his father” before creation. Yeshua functioned in the father’s kingship prior to his physical existence.
Christian churches preach other gods other than the Hebrew Elohim. They are Hellenized (mixed, hybrid) gods straight out of Mithraism and Zoroastrianism and Judaism. “The Church” mixes, intentionally or not, all of these pagan gods and stories and promotes them as God, and acts of God. The title, “God”, is preferred by churchgoers and synagogue worshippers who reject the truth of the true YHWH Elohim and/or his Son, Yeshua Ha-mashiak of scripture. Christians do not know the name of the God that they worship. The title “God” is of Germanic origin and those people did not worship YHWH. The title “God” has allowed Christianity the ability to flood its membership with thousands of false, pagan, doctrines.
One profound aspect of being in The Kingship of YHWH is that his “called out ones”, those who are actively living in his Kingship/Reign today and are in active covenant with YHWH, is the fact that they (the called out ones) have the ability to discern by “seeing” and “hearing” those around them and can identify whether another person is or has entered into that Kingship that Yeshua has established.
Let me come at this from another direction so to speak. If you are not “in the Kingship/Reign of YHWH/Heaven” then you cannot even perceive (see or have knowledge) of the existence of this “Kingship” even existing, and yet it does, but you cannot experience it or have any knowledge of it. In other words, you literally do not know and you have no awareness that you do not know. This is a conundrum, you don’t know that you don’t know. Here is where this gets really weird, because when you don’t know that you don’t know then there is no urgency to have a desire to learn about it because you are not aware that this even exists. This is why listening to unqualified and unlearned men, men who teach and promote mythological concepts over spiritual truth, is so dangerous. One of many ways of promoting false teachings is through mistranslations whether knowingly or unknowingly. Careful examination of every word is what a “preacher” is supposed to do before teaching the people that he has been given to shepherd over.
YHWH gives those who are actively living in his Kingship/Reign this very moment to “see through”, to “see into the hearts”, to “hear the words of deceit” of imposters. Many people, especially centralized government employees and the state sponsored Church clergy are ripe with corruption. All churches are in bed with the local centralized government, that’s why they are exempt from paying taxes. The messages that the church, your preacher, delivers is regulated by the government in order to literally control the minds of the people to come into compliance with government mandates and agendas. Many people and even preachers deny this very fact. These churches know that there is a line that they cannot cross concerning the government and governmental agendas and if they do cross that line, the centralized government will issue “sanctions” (warnings and fines and even imprisonment and the threat of retroactively removing their tax exempt status forcing them to pay taxes with interest from years prior, even when they were in compliance) against them.
Another aspect about this “Kingship” is that it is “unshakable”. The reference to being “unshakable” is the idea that those who exist in the Kingship/Reign of YHWH are so enlightened by the knowledge of truth, through obedience to the words of YHWH, that there is no force or influence on or in or above the earth that is able dismantle/distort or remove this awareness, knowledge, understanding of truth. This “unshakable”concept is what is meant concerning the statement that the “gates of hades” shall not prevail against the Kingship/Reign of YHWH. This phrase should be understood as, the knowledge of mankind and the powers of this earth that are outside of the Kingship/Reign of YHWH has no place and has no authority and thereby no ability to influence those who are inside, have special knowledge, of the Kingship/Reign of YHWH. This Kingship/Reign is within his called out people and in their innermost parts. This Kingship once it is perceived and experienced by his “called out people”, no earthly force, agenda, ruler, edit, law or tradition is able to remove it. This is the government of “ecclesia.” Righteous and holy independent rule under the authority of Yeshua our King.
Matthew 26:63-64 “But Yeshua held his peace. And the high priest (Caiaphas) answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living Elohim (Caiaphas uses the law of trespass to force Yeshua to speak and defend himself, this is CRITICAL), that thou tell us whether thou be the Messiah, the Son of YHWH. Yeshua saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye “see” the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”
“Hereafter shall ye ‘see’ the Son of man sitting” There will be a day in the future that every human that has ever lived will “see” (understand) who Yeshua is in an instant. Those who pierced him will wail for what they have done. Everyone who has rejected Yeshua and his Kingship will have the scales removed by YHWH on that great day and they will all “see” (understand and comprehend) him and understand for just a moment the magnitude of his authority before they are all judged according “TO THEIR WORKS” not “according to what they believe”, the devils “believe” and tremble. Until that day, YHWH has placed scales on the eyes and deafened the hearing of those who choose to ignore and remain disobedient and lawless. Everyone who has, is and ever will exist in the future, rejected Yeshua’s proposal (conditions for entering into his Kingship) will remain in darkness and will not “see” The Kingship of Yeshua and will not enter into that “Kingship/Reign”. So, there are scales that placed over the eyes of man when he sins. These
“scales” cannot be removed until the person who has the scales repents and turns away from his sin. This is also known as the circumcision of the heart. Circumcision of the heart does not have a literal connotation, but rather it is change in the way, behavior and thinking process, a change of mindset or change in the “state of a man’s being”. Circumcision of the heart is an act of the spirit as a direct result of a man “changing directions”, becoming Hebrew.
“and coming in the clouds.” This is a very interesting phrase that is morbidly misunderstood by Christianity. It is a concept that can only be understood in the relevance of the Kingship/Reign of YHWH/Heaven. No one outside of YHWH’s Kingship has the ability to understand, on their own, without divine revelation, what this phrase actually means. As a result, those who teach on these verses who are outside of the camp, this phrase is prominent in the Messianic writings, falsely interpret their meaning. The meaning that has been propagated by false teachers and false doctrines of Christianity actually interpret this phrase from the understanding of Zoroastrianism.
The phrase “coming in the clouds” is directly related to the Kingship/Reign of YHWH/Heaven and has to do, not with a physical kingdom, but rather a “state of being” called a Kingship. If the phrase was literal description, as Christianity teaches, then yes, one could perceive the interpretation to be literal clouds that float around the earth. However, since we are dealing with a “state of being” or rather a “state of MIND”, we nee to see what aspect of a “state of mind” could represent. A “state of mind” has something to do with “the mind”. Isn’t it fascinating that “the mind” when taken out of a skull can look as if it is a cloud. It is the same color it contains folds and empty pockets and it is carried in the skull about 5 to 6 feet up off of the ground “heaven” and is “the seat of YHWH” in the temple that was made without hands, meaning a man. To verify this idea, we should look at the design of the first and second temples. Both temples, if viewed from a helicopter looking down, were designed to reflect the image of a man laying down of the ground. The “Holy of Holy’s” area is in a very special room where “the seat of YHWH, the ark, was placed. During the one day every year when the high priest would go into this room, there would be a “cloud” in the “empty chamber” above the ark. It was from this “cloud” in this “empty chamber” where YHWH would reside and speak.
Now that we have that cleared up, we have to notice that the passage or phrase does not say “and coming in the cloud” but rather it says “coming in the clouds”, this is plural. So what is he saying here? Well, since each one of his people are residing in the Kingship/Reign of YHWH/Heaven then the kingship is established in the “state of being” or rather “state of mind” of each one of his people. Yeshua said to his disciples, that they would greater works than he did. Why is that? Did his disciples have access to more power after Yeshua’s ascension? Of course not, the reason that they would do greater works that he did was because there many of them and together with YHWH residing on the “Seat of YHWH” within the clouds, the minds of his people.
So, what Yeshua was saying to Caiaphas was this: “Hereafter shall ye “see” (the scales over his eyes of rebellion will be removed and he will be able to understand the magnitude of Yeshua’s glory and his rightful place as the one and only sovereign King) the Son of man (a man, not a God-man) sitting on the right hand of power (meaning with full authority from YHWH his father), and coming in the clouds of heaven (massive numbers of residents who have repented and “live in a state of mind”, in heaven, the elevated mind, within the Kingship of YHWH who have overcome man’s sinful desires by honoring the requirements, conditions, of entering into the Kingship of YHWH).” Yeshua is telling Caiaphas, after this day, that Caiaphas will, at some point in the future, when the scales will be removed in the last day of judgement, that Caiaphas and the world, will comprehend the magnitude of the power and authority that Yeshua has been given. Caiaphas and the world will “see” (witness) Yeshua coming to full power along with the multitudes of followers who have entered into his Kingship (government) during this current existence. Caiaphas and the world will “see” (witness) a righteous, obedient Kingship where Yeshua will be officially coronated as King that will have no end and all iniquity will finally be removed from existence.
Zoroaster, was a pagan theologian from the 3rd to 4th century BC and actually developed virtually all of the Christian doctrine that is being taught today by every church concerning salvation and the things of the next life. Yeshua came to give life to those who are walking among us today, not in the next world. The next world is too late and Christianity teaches that we are to prepare for the next world. Scriptures say that it is appointed unto man to die once, then the judgement. This judgement is a judgement, a legal determination, of whether you will live or die based on whether you practiced the requirements, the boundaries, the guidelines that were put in place by YHWH. If you violated those requirements without repenting and coming into obedience to Torah and died your physical death, you will be found guilty and sentenced to death. You do not get to “live” in the “lake of fire”. There will be no “life” whatsoever. Scriptures teach of death to those who lived in violation of YHWH’s ordinances.
These facts should help explain and expose the false gods, Zoroastrianism and Mithraism that are currently worshiped and actively promoted by the church and also why the churches are unable to help their people in times of financial and political difficulty resulting in confusion.
So you see, the misinformed and confused people who are waiting for “Jesus” to physically “return” from the skies, or for a city to fall out of the sky, or for something visible and touchable, are missing out on the actual Reign of Yeshua today, right now. By looking for a physical kingdom they are blinding themselves to the presence of His Kingship/Reign. It is here, but they just don’t see it because they can’t, their eyes have been blinded because they have been programmed to think of it incorrectly. The so-called “Kingship of YHWH” does not “come with observation.” It comes “within us” if we believe Yeshua is our King – Luke 17:21 and live as he lived, by being obedient to the father.
But someone might ask: “How can there be a “kingship” without a “kingdom?” No one is suggesting that YHWH does not have a kingdom. Indeed, the whole Earth belongs to him. He created it and he owns it. He is unquestionably King over all of his physical creation. All creation is his kingdom. That goes without saying.
The term “Kingship” is used in Scripture to identify and express a specific, internal, metaphysical, mental/spiritual concept.
Accepting YHWH as the one and only, specific, by name, true Elohim means that we must accept his Son, Yeshua, as our true King. In the scriptures this condition is called “Kingship.” It refers to man’s attitude toward YHWH… not a physical “kingdom.” Man, for his own well-being, physically and mentally, must recognize YHWH as his King.
One last note:
In Matthew 12:28, Yeshua explained that when He casts out devils(i.e., when he gave His disciples the ability to see the real devils among them) then the Kingship of YHWH had come upon them. In other words, when they gained the ability to see Yeshua as their King they also gained the ability to see devils in governments and temples for what they really were. That condition, (having “eyes to see, and ears to hear”) is a gift to those who are “called out” of darkness and into Yeshua’s marvelous light.
There is one particular group of people, a great nation, who has declared itself to be “God.” This nation has been overpowering numerous nations for over 1700 years. The fruit of this nation is arrogant, proud and demonic. This particular nation slaughtered millions and millions of people who would not bow down to their authority, their fruit is evil and murderous. This nation has slept with thousands upon thousands of pagan “gods” and has brought all of those pagan “gods” into her house. This nation has perpetrated the greatest religious heretical fraud upon the world and has condemned untold billions of people to everlasting damnation over its 1700-year history. This religion has raped the young and the old. They have dominated and influenced every country on Earth since its inception in 325 AD. This nation is single-handedly responsible for the perversion and defilement of the writings of the Hebrew apostles. This nation has set up men above the throne of the Hebrew Elohim and routinely calls The Hebrew Elohim a liar. This nation slaughters the Son of The Hebrew Elohim weekly on a cross in a pagan ceremony that has nothing to do with The Hebrew Messiah. This nation has forced a false, empty name upon the world as the savior and defiled the teachings of the Hebrew Messiah, and mixed the stories with pagan stories and ideas. This nation has established an abomination unto YHWH called “The Trinity.” Nowhere is “The Trinity” even mentioned in the scriptures. This nation has perverted and defiled everything that is holy unto The Hebrew Elohim and laughs at those who follow their teachings. This nation does not recognize nor does it adhere to the teachings and the authority of The Hebrew Elohim. Yet, the largest religion on the planet adheres to its doctrines and teachings of itself. Lost sheep, literally worshipping a completely, totally different Roman/Greek “god” and “christ” than the people of YHWH. This nation does not and never has acknowledged The Most High of Israel. This nation only promotes itself. Its “gods,” “christs,” and “deities” have nothing to do with the Hebrew people. Therefore, the people of YHWH must abandon and run away from this great whore that sleeps and worships the pagan gods of this world. Its daughters are called the protestant religions and its worshippers are called Christians. Christians are literally defined as those who worship the Gods/Christs/Deities of Rome, not The Elohim of Israel.
