The Law of Jehovah is to be bound on our hand and forehead

Deuteronomy 11:18-28 (ASV)

18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and ye shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes. 19 And ye shall teach them your children, talking of them, when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 20 And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thy house, and upon thy gates; 21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Jehovah sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.22 For if ye shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him; 23 then will Jehovah drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves. 24 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the [a]hinder sea shall be your border.25 There shall no man be able to stand before you: Jehovah your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath spoken unto you.

26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse: 27 the blessing, if ye shall hearken unto the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day; 28 and the curse, if ye shall not hearken unto the commandments of Jehovah your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.

Another example of Jehovah's law being bound on our hand and on our frontlets (foreheads). We are to have his law bound on our hand and forehead. We are to have His law in our hearts (mind) and our hand (actions). We are to teach our children Jehovah's law and we are to constantly meditate on His Royal Law.

Obedience to Jehovah's law yields a blessing and actually prolongs one's life. We are to diligently (verse 22) keep his commandments.

The hebrew word for diligently is "shamar" (Hebrew Strongs 8104) and means "to hedge about, guard, generally to protect, attend to, etc.: be circumspect, take heed (to self), keep, mark, look narrowly, observe, preserve, regard, save (self), sure, (that lay) wait (for), watch(-man)."

We are to guard, protect and attend to Jehovah's law. Verse 22 says we are to walk in all His ways. His ways are found in His law. We are to cleave unto Jehovah which is done through His Son Jesus which gives us the new life that allows us to obey to the law.

Jehovah's promise to the Israelites was conditional hinging on their obedience to the law.

Verse 26 and 27, Jehovah sets before us a blessing and a curse. A blessing if  we obey Jehovah's commandments. A curse if we disobey the law of Jehovah which is most notably manifested in following other gods. Most of Christendom is following after a strange god called the Trinity. This was the natural result of doing away and changing Jehovah's Royal Law. The apostasy of the early Church led to the council of Nicea which introduced the strange Trinity god. Once we do away with or change Jehovah's law, the end result is the worship of strange gods.

Verse 32, Jehovah commands the Congregation to observe His statutes and judgments. The same command is for the Congregation today.

1 John 5:2-3 (KJV)

2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Knowledge!

The Spirit of Knowledge- The Holy Spirit is the Spirit  of clarity of mind. Jehovah's Spirit doesn't lead to confusion (Babylon) but rather to true knowledge. Manifestations that take place in Churches that lead to confusion are evidence that the Holy Spirit is not in those manifestations. Speaking in babbling (babel) tongues is one such manifestation of confusion. The Spirit of the prophets is subject to the prophets.

1st Corinthians 14:31-33 (KJV)

31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

The Holy Spirit leads to self-control not kaos and confusion. When the indwelling Jehovah is in us, it is subject to our rational mind. Remember, the the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of knowledge and understanding so these qualities are in use when we have the Spirit in us. The Holy Spirit will give us strength and power from on high but it won't cause to us to exhibit fanatical manifestations. Jehovah is not a God of confusion but of peace.

When you walk into a Church and see people dancing like the world and shaking their bodies in violent convulsions and attribute this to the Holy Spirit, they grieve the Spirit as these manifestations are of the devil. The fruit of the Holy Spirit is self control.

Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV)

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

There will be those who accuse Christians, who expose the works of darkness within the Churches that are attributed to the Holy Spirit, as just having head knowledge and not being Spirit filled. However, the bible clearly says that the Spirit of Jehovah gives us knowledge, wisdom and understanding.

Isaiah 11:1-2 (ASV)

11 And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots shall bear fruit. 2 And the Spirit of Jehovah shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Jehovah.

One of the true evidences of the Holy Spirit is when we exhibit wisdom, knowledge and understanding. These qualities of the Holy Spirit will allow us to discern legitimate works of the Spirit versus counterfeit manifestations. Jesus our Jehovah received this without measure during his ministry and now sends us His Spirit so that He can live in us by His Holy Spirit.

Colossians 1:27 (KJV)

27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

Christ in us is the hope of glory not a third divine being called "god the holy spirit".

 “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.” “And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.” “And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. Little children keep yourselves from idols.” The Lord is soon to come. We want that complete and perfect understanding which the Lord alone can give. It is not safe to catch the spirit from another. WE WANT THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHICH IS JESUS CHRIST. If we commune with God, we shall have strength and grace and efficiency.” {Lt66-1894 (April 10, 1894) par. 18} - EGW

Ellen White says it clearly, it is not safe to catch the spirit from another and that the Holy Spirit is Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is Christ divested of humanity. When we have a false concept of the Holy Spirit, it can lead to confusion which is what we see in many of the Churches of Christendom with their fanatical expressions. The Spirit of Christ will cause us to live like our Jehovah and keep His commandments as He kept His Father's commandments.

 "JEHOVAH, OUR FATHER, AND HIS SON JESUS CHRIST ARE ALONE TO BE EXALTED. The knowledge of God is eternal life to those who receive it. His holy banner is to standing elevated above all the greatness of the greatest men, above all the honor and glory of the world.” {Ms11-1898 (June 29, 1898) par. 11} - EGW

According to the Spirit of Prophecy, the knowledge of Jehovah leads to eternal life. We receive this knowledge when we have the Spirit of God and Christ in us. The Spirit of the indwelling Jehovah is the Spirit of knowledge.

Jesus is the Son of God!

The Foundation of Christianity

Matthew 26:62-64 (KJV)

62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.

64 Jesus 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.

The above passage gives us a clear picture of what the controversy was between the unbelieving Jews and Jesus.  This was the night before the trial before the Sanhedrin.

In verse 62, the high priest questions Jesus on what it was that he was accused of. There were witnesses that were accusing Jesus of something. What was that something? Verse 63 tells us!

Verse 63, the high priest then demands (adjures) an answer from Jesus regarding the accusations made against Him. Notice the words of the High Priest "I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of the living God."

First, I want to give a definition for the word "adjure", by knowing this it will help realize how binding Jesus statement is when He affirms the high priest's accusation against Him.

The greek word for "adjure" is "exorkizo" (strongs 1844) and means "to extract an oath, to force an oath, to adjure".

So the high priest was trying to extract an oath from Jesus.

How does Jesus respond to the high priest's attempt at forcing an oath out of Jesus? Jesus words below:

"Thou hast said"

The greek word for "said" is "epo" (strongs 2036) and means "say, speak, command, tell".

Jesus can't lie so clearly He affirmed the accusation made against Him that He is the Son of the living God. Jesus didn't fall into the trap of making an oath but rather simply said "Thou hast said". Jesus agreed with the accusation against Him. Today, many theologians and pastors are doing the same thing as the unbelieving Jews in rejecting the Sonship of Christ.

These men are either knowingly or unknowingly calling Jesus a liar as He confirmed that He is the Son of the living God. From this passage we see that the controversy during Jesus earthly life was whether He was the Christ and the Son of the living God or if he was a false teacher. Jesus being the living God was not even a point of contention as both Jesus and the Jewish religious leaders agreed that there was only one God (Mark 12:28-34).

John 10:29-36 (KJV)

29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

Verse 29, Jesus affirms that the Father gave him the sheep (followers of Jesus). Notice Jesus clear words right here that destroy the trinity doctrine: "My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all"

The greek word for "greater than" is "meizon" (strongs 3187) and means "larger (literally or figuratively, specially, in age): - elder, greater(-est), more.

Jesus makes a clear declaration that the Father is oldest being in the universe and the most powerful (greater than all). Jesus includes Himself in this as He used the word "all".

The word for "all" in the greek is "pas" and means "all, any, every, the whole:-all (manner of, means), always, any (one)  as many as, every (one, way), daily, + ever, as many as, + no (thing), thoroughly, whatsoever, whole, whosoever."

When Jesus says the Father is greater (older and more powerful) than all, He means it and is in included in this statement.

Verse 30, Jesus tells the Jews that He and the Father are one. We know this verse speaks to the oneness of the Father and Son in every way except of course them being "one being". They are one is Spirit, purpose and unity. Even in our worship they are one as we are to honour the Son as we honour the Father.

Verse 31-33, This is where the Jews picked up stones as they believed Jesus was making himself God. Jesus responds  by telling them that He showed them good works from His Father. Remember, Jesus can do nothing without the Father as what He sees the Father do and say, He then does and says (John 5:30, John 5:19). Remember, Jesus is the Word of God not the Word of Himself. The Father was/is the source of what the Son says and does.

Verse 34-35, look at Jesus words here "Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?"

This reference by Jesus is from Psalms 82:6 which reads:
 "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High."

This  scripture is in refrence to the rulers and judges of Israel. The word for "gods" here in the Psalm is the Hebrew word "elohim" and means "gods in the ordinary sense; but specifically used (in the plural thus, especially with the article) of the supreme God. occasionally applied by way of deference to magistrates; and sometimes as a superlative: - angels, exceeding, God (gods)(-dess,-ly), (very), great, judges, mighty."

The word God/god either in the greek or Hebrew isn't always a refrence to the Almighty God. It can also be used for Human rulers as in the judges of Israel or even of false gods and even satan. It can be used for angels as well. Elohim can simply mean "Mighty One". The Father is the Almighty Elohim, so when it is used regarding others it is in respect to their position rather than an identity of being "Almighty God".

When Elohim is used for Jesus, it is in respect to His literal Sonship (John 20:28-31). There should be no objection to calling Jesus God/Elohim as even human magistrates were called elohim/gods. For human rulers elohim is an honorary title, for Jesus it's who He is as the literal Son of Jehovah God.

Jesus is telling the Jews if the scripture cannot be broken, meaning it stands, then it is acceptable to call those by whom the word of God came "gods". How much more can we call Jesus God, being that not only is the Word of God coming to the Jews through Him, but He is the Word of God and as we see in verse 36, Jesus is the Son of God.

Verse 36, Jesus clarifies His identity to the offended Jews as He says "Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?"

Look at the clear statement of Jesus, even though it is very appropriate to call Jesus God, He makes the clarification that He is the Son of God. So many in Christendom fail to qoute verse 36 when talking about this series of scriptures in John 10. The love qouting verse 33 but almost never qoute verse 36. This passage teaches that it is very appropriate to call Jesus God as His Godship is tied to His literal Sonship and the scripture cannot be broken.

When we call Jesus God it is not merely an honourary title nor is it a declaration that He is the Almighty living God, but rather that He truly is the Divine Son of God.

The Father is the living God!

The Father (Jehovah) is the living God and the one true God. Don't take my word for it, believe Jesus! If the Father is the one true God and living God, then who is Christ? It's actually very simple and beautiful, He is the Son of the living God and the one true God. Jesus affirms Peter's confession as such and Jesus states that this confession will be the foundation on which the Church will be built upon and that it's this Church that will not be swallowed up by the grave.

Jeremiah 10:10 (ASV)

10 But Jehovah is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembleth, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation.

John 17:3 (ASV)

3 And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ.

It's pretty clear that the living God is the Father and Jesus is His Son.

Matthew 16:13-20 (KJV)

13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom 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.

20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

The controversy between the unbelieving Jews and Jesus was not whether He was the living God but rather the Son of the living God. More clear proof that the living God is the Father.

Matthew 26;63

63 But Jesus kept silent And the high priest said to Him, "I adjure You by the living God, that You tell us whether You are the Christ, the Son of God."

The City of the living God is clearly the city of the Father according to Jesus.

Hebrews 12:22

22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels,

Revelation 3:12 (KJV)

12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

The Three Angels messages part 2

The 2nd Angels message

Revelation 14:8 (KJV)

8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

The second angel cries out that Babylon is fallen and has made all nations drink of the wine of her fornication. This message went out to the fallen Protestant denominations during the Advent movement in the mid 1800's and continues this day as their apostasy is even more of a stench in the nostrils of Jehovah now than it was then. The Protestant and Orthodox churches along with their mother Roman Catholicism constitute Mystery Babylon along with other false religions of the world.

Roman Catholicism has been fallen since it's development in the 4th century so it is the Protestant denominations that are primarily described in the second angel's message. The Protestant reformation brought many good things to Christianity however they stopped reforming and soon became the cage of every unclean and hateful bird. Protestantism refused to conform to the law of Jehovah notably the 4th commandment of the decalogue. The trickle down effect of their lawlessness invited foul spirits into their congregations and a spirit of rebellion which according to 1 Samuel 15:23 is equivalent to witchcraft.

The wine spoken of here represents false doctrine and the fornication mentioned is spiritual. The greek word for fornication is "porneia" (strongs 4202) and means "harlotry (including adultery and incest), homosexuality, lesbianism, intercourse with animals: figuratively, idolatry: - fornication, worship of idols, of the defilement of idolatry, as incurred by eating the sacrifices offered to idols.

The Protestant Churches teach many false doctrines, a few are listed below:

-Celebration of pagan holidays such as Xmas, Easter and even halloween
-Promotion of the Eucharist
- the natural immortality of the soul
-eternal torment
- Sunday sacredness
- The trinity doctrine
-infant baptism
-God's law being done away with

The nations have drunken the wine of Babylon's spiritualism. The natural immortality of the soul is one of the most poisonous doctrines which leads to huge deceptions. Many have been deceived by lying familiar spirits thinking these are dead loved ones. The calling on of dead loved one's spirits is big business in today's market place. Even professed Christians have taken part in this abominable practice following in the footsteps of the Roman Church.

The deceived Christians of Protestantism have even bought into the lie of deceivers who say they died and went to heaven or hell. These false brethen have even wrote books and have had movies made describing their afterlife experiences. These liars have even profited off this deception as they have money hand over fist due to their lying stories. The book and movie "Heaven is for real" is a perfect example of the dangers of spiritualism (natural immortality of the soul). A little boy claimed he died and went to heaven and his dad took his story and went nationwide with it and wrote a book, a movie was made, appearances on Christian radio shows. Professed Christians the world over bought into this lie. Eventually the child grew up and told the truth that this was all a lie. The damage had been done and the Father of this child made a lot of money off this disgusting lie. Satan used a child to deceive professed Christians with the lie of the natural immortality of the soul.

While the nominal Churches of Christendom have rejected Jehovah's Holy Sabbath day they have embraced Rome's pagan feasts. One of the main reasons for this rejection is the lie that the  Sabbath is a bondage. Yet these same Christians will bend over backwards to celebrate Xmas and easter and even halloween. Sometimes even getting into debt buying presents. Although most Christians of Protestantism don't keep Sunday as a Sabbath they do celebrate Sunday as the day for corporate worship. By doing this they pay homage to the Roman Catholic Church who has said that Sunday is their mark of authority. These Protestants will even say that Sunday is the Lord's day and say that the Sabbath was for the Jews only. These Protestants thereby show their loyalty to Rome and it's Pope by disregarding the true day of worship and rest which is the Seventh-day of the week.

Mark 2:27-28 (KJV)

27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

The Sabbath was given to man as a day of solemn rest and communion with Jehovah and His Son Jesus. The lying denominations say it was only for the ethnic Jewish nation.

Infant baptism is another false doctrine promoted by some mainline Protestant denominations.

Acts 8:36-38 (KJV)

36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

The above passage clearly states that the  requirement for baptism is to believe with all your heart that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. This belief is an impossibility for a baby or toddler. Yet many Protestants practice this heresy and by doing so show their allegiance to Papal Rome. Many Christians in the past were killed for following the biblical method of baptism. Protestants and Catholics alike participated in these persecutions.

Eternal torment is the sister of the natural immortality of the soul. This abominable doctrine has cast Jehovah as a torturing tyrant. Satan created this lie to deceive the world into looking at Jehovah and His Son as unjust. It's a doctrine that has contributed to many rejecting Christianity.

 Ecclesiastes 9:5 (KJV)

5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

The Protestant Churches have ignored clear scripture on the state of the dead. They have promoted the lies of Mystery Babylon that teaches that Satan rules over a spiritual underworld of torment. These so called Churches have helped poison the world with this false teaching as movies are made, books are written with fanciful tales of the afterlife where people are tormented. This heresy has even been used as a scare tactic by Churches to keep their parishioners in line and beat them into blind submission.

The promotion of the Eucharist in Protestant Churches is increasing and some of the mainline Protestant denominations have perpetuated this doctrine ever since they left Rome. Their are different variations of the Eucharist promoted by these apostate Churches but nonetheless they all borrow from Mama (Catholicism). The apostate Churches have tried to incorporate a mysticism into the memorial meal some even borrowing parts of the transubstantiation where it is said the bread and wine literally become the blood and body of Christ. The scripture is clear that the communion meal is a memorial of Christ's death.

1 Corinthians 11:24 (KJV)

24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

Another bitter taste of the false wine of Babylon is the teaching that Jehovah's law is done away with and that we don't have to keep it anymore after the cross. Due to a desire for convenience and a rebelious spirit, the Churches of Christendom teach that we no longer need to keep the commandments of God.  They even go so far as to say that Jehovah's commandments are a bondage. They actually speak evil of the law of God. They accuse Paul of allowing for the breaking of God's law. Their vilification of Jehovah's law is contrary to the testimony of the bible. Jesus Christ has the final word on whether the law of Jehovah is binding or not.

Matthew 5:17-19 (KJV)

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus words should be terrifying for the pulpit preachers of Christendom. It couldn't be any clearer, those who break the least of the commandments and teach others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. Fulfill is from the greek word "pleroo" (strongs 4137) meaning to make full, to cause to abound, to render perfect, to carry out." We also fulfill Jehovah's law when we obey it (Romams 8:4). The preachers of Christendom pervert the meaning of fulfill  and say that means the law no longer needs to be kept. They will answer to our Jehovah and Saviour Jesus Christ for this blasphemy against the Father.

Heaven and earth have not passed away and so even the smallest part of the law continues to exist. Jehovah's word endures forever (1 Peter 1:25), including the parts that command His laws (Isaiah 40:8).

Isaiah 8:20 (KJV)

20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

This is what the bible says about those Pastor's who teach that it's okay to break Jehovah's law or that the law doesn't need to be kept.

Revelation 22:14 (KJV)

14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Look what Jesus says, those who do His Father's commandments will be allowed into heavenly Canaan and eat of the tree of life. Does this mean that those who don't keep the commandments of God will not enter into New Jerusalem? Jesus words certainly seem to indicate that. Why take a chance? Eternal life is at stake!!

Romans 3:31 (KJV)

31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

Many try to use Paul as an excuse for breaking Jehovah's law but look at what Paul says above. The greek word for establish is "histemi" (strongs 2476) and means "stand still, to erect, to cause or make to stand, to bid to stand by, to place, to set, to make firm, to establish, to be kept intact".

Get the point? Paul in no way was saying that faith makes the law void but to the contrary, he says that we "make firm, fix and erect and make to stand" the law.

Acts 28:17 (KJV)

17 And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

The above passage also reiterates that Paul did not teach against the law. He neither taught against the law nor broke it himself.

Another false doctrine of Babylon is none other than the trinity doctrine. This doctrine corrupts who God is and who His Son is and what the Holy Spirit is. Instead of a literal Sonship as the bible clearly teaches, the trinity doctrine teaches a metaphysical Sonship of Christ or as many modern trinitarian's teach, a metaphorical Sonship. Either viewpoint is blasphemous as they deny the literal Sonship of Christ. What does the bible say about who God is and who Jesus is?

Ephesians 4:4-6 (KJV)

4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

Look at verse 6, the bible clearly teaches that there is one God not 3 gods or a 3 in 1 god.

Who did Jesus say was the one true God?

John 17:3 (KJV)

3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Jude 4 (KJV)

4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Lord God (the Father) is the only Master God. Notice the distinction made between the only Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ. We have two divine beings here, one is the Lord God who is clearly the Father and one is the Lord Jesus Christ His Son. The Lord God is called the only Lord God in this passage meaning He is the Master God and the only one. There is no trinity god as the Father is the Almighty only Lord God. The Holy Spirit nor Jesus are the only Lord God. Jesus is the only Lord God's Son making him fully Divine and God but not the only Lord God.  The Holy Spirit is the actual Spirit of the only Lord God and His Son.

 The greek word for only is "monos" and means "alone (without a companion), self, by (one's self), only, merely, destitute of help, forsaken".

Isaiah 42:8 (ASV)

8 I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images.

God declares that His name is Jehovah and that He will not give His glory to another. There is only one being that the Father shares His glory with and that is His Son also named Jehovah. The Father refrences false gods and their graven images. The trinity doctrine takes glory away from the Father and gives to a 3 in 1 god and also gives the Father's glory to "God the Holy Spirit". This robs the Father of worship that He deserves. The Father is the supreme ruler over all creation. He shares His glory of being the Supreme unbegotten, uncreated ruler of all creation with no one. Only the Father fits this description. The Son is the Father's only begotten Son and shares in His Father's glory as His Son. However,  as the Almighty eternal God, the Father shares that glory with no one including the philosophical idol known as the trinity god.

1 Corinthians 15:24-28 (KJV)

24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.

28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

This is another passage that destroys the pagan trinity doctrine as Jesus will turn the kingdom over to the Father at the end of the millennium and when the last enemy is defeated at the second death which is death itself after the second resurrection. Verse 28 says that the Son will be subject unto the Father so that God be all in all. The Father will be ultimate ruler of eternity once the millennium concludes. It will not be a trinity god ruling over us. It couldn't be because it clearly says that Jesus will be subject to God so that God be all in all. The Father is clearly the one spoken of here and not a trinity. The Father being the one true God harmonizes all over the bible.

1 Corinthians 8:6 (KJV)

6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Paul makes it crystal clear that there is One God not 3 nor a 3 in 1 god. Paul identifies this one God as the Father.  Here, we also see the distinction made between the Father who is identified as the one God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Understanding the identity of the God of the Bible is crucial in these last days as it is the trinity doctrine more than any other doctrine, that is uniting the Protestant denominations with Roman Catholicism.

If the Protestant denominations would have kept on reforming and left the trinity doctrine where it belonged (Rome), then they would have had a near fail safe protection against being deceived into ecumenism with Rome. Many will fall away from the faith because of this doctrine. We know that our Father in heaven winks at ignorance (Acts 17:30) however, He then expects men everywhere to repent.

I truly believe there will be many trinitarian's who will be in the celestial city of God as they worshipped God according to the light they had, however in these last days with precious truths being restored there is no excuse to not be a Berean and stay in ignorance. The 144,000 will have pure worship before God and will not fornicate with the Churches of Babylon nor her false doctrines. In order to be among the 144,000 you cannot believe in nor worship a trinity god. This abominable doctrine is leading many astray and it is the chief doctrine that is bringing the Protestants, Orthodox and Roman Catholic Churches together. All those part of this ecumenical movement will have mark of the beast or the name of the beast or the number of his name. The trinity is definitely part of the beast name, number and mark.

All of the false doctrines represented by "wine" here in the passage are the reasons for Jehovah's wrath being stored up against Christendom's Churches.

The Three Angels messages part 1

Revelation 14:6-12 (KJV)

6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

The Three angels messages are the final warnings to go out to the world. It is called the everlasting gospel. When most Christians today speak of preaching the gospel they don't think of these three messages. Many even think that preaching the gospel is narrowed down to "Jesus loves you" and "grace". While these are true in and of itself, most modern churches have perverted what "love" and "grace" are. Never does warning of Jehovah's judgment enter into the discussion as being part of the gospel.

Matthew 24:14 (KJV)

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

The Three Angels messages are part of the gospel of the kingdom. These three messages will preached unto all the world and then the end will come. Unfortunately the majority of Christendom refuses to preach these messages out of fear of being hated by the world. Even Churches that claim to have these three messages as their prophetic gift have largely done away with preaching them and have even persecuted those in their congregations who preach them.

These messages were starting to be preached during the Advent movement of the mid 1800's. If the preaching of the Three Angels messages was timely back then, how much more appropriate is it to preach them now? It is absolutely appropriate given the healing of the antichrist (papal Rome) deadly wound and the state of this world. Let's look at the passages here in the Three Angels messages and discern their meaning.

Verse 6, This message is to be preached unto the whole world and it is called the everlasting gospel. This is not the satanic "love" gospel that has swept up Christendom but rather a gospel of solemn warning. Don't get me wrong, love is an essential part of the Three Angels messages it's just not the false lawless love that the Churches of Christendom preach and teach. What's the love that is preached in the Three Angels messages? Let's let scripture answer that!

1 John 5:2-3 (KJV)

2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

You cannot separate love from God's commandments. Today's Babylonian Church system teaches a false satanic love that tells you that you don't have to keep Jehovah's Royal Law. This false perversion of love is the very reason the Three Angels messages need to be preached. True love for God and our neighbor is when we keep the commandments.

Verse 7, the first angels message calls those who dwell on the earth to fear God and give glory to Him. Most Churches avoid the word "fear" like a plague. But that's exactly what the first angel is calling people to do which is to fear God. Do you see how the perverted love gospel has deceived people so bad that they can't even use words that are in the bible? The word for fear in the greek is "phobeo" (Strongs 5399) which means "to frighten, to be alarmed, to be in awe of, to revere: be sore afraid, fear (exceedingly), reverence."

The reason for the call to fear God is because the hour of His judgment is coming. The day of Jehovah is called great and terrible. Those in the world need to be sore afraid, alarmed and frightened of the judgments of God to come and then show reverence and awe towards God and repent. So many in the pulpits in Christendom are watering down the fear of God and telling their congregants they don't have to fear Him. Even Churches that have this message are watering down the serious call to fear God. The people that fail to heed this call will be frightened and sore afraid at the judgements that God pours out on the wicked. The Judgement hour is now and has been since 1844 when the cleansing of the sanctuary commenced.

We all will be before the bhema seat of Christ before probation closes. The final wrath will be poured out after probation for sinners closes. Even now judgements have been given to the earth. The final wrath poured out will be devastating and men will tremble as those who are in labor.

We also see in this first angels message a call to worship God. The greek word for worship is "proskuneo" (strongs 4352) and means "to fawn or crouch, i.e. prostrate oneself in homage (do reverence to, adore): - worship". The true understanding of worship is key in these last days. Many falsely believe that to worship someone or something you have to literally bow to them and proclaim they are God. While that is part of worship, it also is as simple as paying someone reverence and homage and fawning over them. Many in the last days will worship the Papal antichrist believing that they are not really worshipping him, but rather simply honoring him. Honouring a person is not a bad thing in and of itself, but honouring a person who claims the titles that only belong to God and His Son is high treason against the Most High.

If we are going to preach the Three Angels messages it is vital that we tell the world to worship the right God. How do we know what God to tell people to fear? Who is God? Let's go to scripture to find out the identity of God so that when we give the Three Angels messages we are telling people to fear the God of the Bible and not a strange god.

Revelation 7:2-3 (KJV)

2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

The seal of God will be given to the 144,000 Saints before probation closes. What is contained in this seal? Let's go to Revelation 14 and see, because the answer of who is the living God is contained in that passage.

Revelation 14:1-4 (KJV)

1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:

3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.

4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

Verse 1 gives us the answer as to what is written on the foreheads of those who receive the seal of God. It is the Father's name. This must mean that the Father is the living God. Noticeably absent is the trinity god. Many in today's Churches teach that the living God is a trinity. Scriptures clearly contradicts this notion. Some versions render the verse "His name and His Father's name". This is acceptable as well because the Father and Son bear the same sacred name "Jehovah". The Father is the original Jehovah and the Son was begotten from Him and inherited His Father's name. Salvation is found in calling on the name of Jehovah i.e. Joel 2:32, Acts 2:21, Romans 10:13. The name Jesus means the "Salvation of Jehovah".

To further prove that the living God is the Father let's look at a couple of scriptures.

Matthew 16:13-20 (KJV)

13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Peter tells Jesus that he believes he (Jesus) is the Son of the living God. Jesus then tells Peter that his (Jesus) Father in heaven revealed this to Peter and not flesh and blood. When we acknowledge the Father to be the living God and not the trinity, according to Jesus it is the Father who revealed this to us.

Jeremiah 10:10 (ASV)

10 But Jehovah is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembleth, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation.

The Father is Jehovah, the living God of the old testament as well as the new testament.

Hebrews 9:14 (KJV)

14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Christ offered himself up to God so that we can serve the living God who is His Father and our Father.

John 17:3 (KJV)

3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Jesus calls His Father the only true God.

Matthew 26:63-64 (KJV)

63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.

64 Jesus 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.

From this exchange with the Jews, Jesus affirms His Sonship of the living God. It is clear from this passage that the living God is the Father.

Acts 3:13 (KJV)

13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.

A very revealing pasaage here, Jesus is revealed to be the Son of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

It is crystal clear from the passages above that the Father is the living God and hence the God that we need to tell people to fear, worship and glory when we preach the Three Angels messages. Many today in the SDA GC Churches are not giving glory to the Father and instead focus all glory on the Son and some even the Holy Spirit. They are not truly preaching the Three Angels messages. The greek word for glory is "doxa" and means "dignity, glory(-ious), honour, praise, worship. We are never to told to give glory to a trinity (Doxology).

The last part of the first angels message is very key in understanding the controversy in these last days between the Israel of Jehovah and Babylon. Notice the verbiage "worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."

The call to worship God is a call to worship the God who created heaven, earth and the sea. Where do we find this language in scripture?

Exodus 20:8-11 (ASV)

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: in itthou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:11 for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Jehovah blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

 The Sabbath commandment contains the same language as does the first angels message in regards to the creation of God. In fact the Sabbath commandment contains the seal of God:

Name: Jehovah
Title: Creator
Territory: Heaven, Earth and Sea and all that in them is.

This language is used elsewhere in regards to the God of the worlds.

Acts 4:24 (KJV)

24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:

The apostolic Church raises their voices in praise to the Lord (Jehovah) God who created heaven, earth and the sea and all that in them is.

Israel in the old covenant and Israel in the new covenant (the Church) all inherently identified Jehovah with the creation of heaven, earth and sea. They knew the memorial that commemorated Jehovah's creation was the Seventh-day  Sabbath. The early Christian's safeguarded the Sabbath as they knew it was their Creators consecrated day of rest. As Christianity spread and lost much of it's Hebrew roots the Sabbath was lightly regarded by many however there were always Christians that preserved the true Holy day.

Below is some food for thought in relation to the Seventh-day Sabbath of Jehovah which seems to have an important place in this last days controversy between the Israel of Jehovah and Babylon the Great.

THE PAPACY'S ADMISSION TO
CHANGING JEHOVAH'S ROYAL LAW

From Peter Geiermann's Convert's Catechism of Catholic Doctrine and read the following on page 50:

Q. Which is the Sabbath day?

A. Saturday is the Sabbath day.

Q. Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?

A. We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday.

A man wrote a letter to the then famous James Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore, and asked if the Catholic church did, indeed, change the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday. The Cardinal replied, "Of course, the Catholic church claims that the change was her act. And the act is a MARK of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters."

The following words are from The Catholic Record of London, Ontario, Canada, September 1, 1923: "Sunday is our MARK of authority...the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact."

Jesus truly is the Son of God!

Acts 9:18-20 (KJV)

18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.

20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

This passage from Acts 9 follows Paul's heavenly vision of Jesus Christ. Post resurrection, very few have had the pleasure of direct visions of Christ. Paul is one of them.

In verse 18, we see that scales fell from Paul's eyes, previous to this Paul was not only temporarily physically blinded but he had been spiritually blinded as well as he persecuted "the way". Notice that once Paul received his sight he was baptized. Remember the requirement for baptismnis confession that Jesus is the Son of God (Acts 8:37, 1 John 4:15) and repentance from sins. Paul must have done both before being baptized.

Verse 19, Paul is strengthed and also fellowshiped with the disciples at Damascus. Paul was anointed for the ministry straight away and was anointed by Christ. Many men and women go to seminaries to learn more about the bible and yet they come out more confused. They end up complicating and making void the word of God. Seminaries are man's way of estimating someone being anointed. Jehovah's way is different. Remember, the Holy Spirit is our teacher not man. We can learn from man but ultimately it's the Holy Spirit that guides us into all truth. Only God and His Son can anoint someone to preach the gospel, seminaries are a tradition of man.

Verse 20, Paul's first sermon was preaching that Christ is the Son of God. This is the result of being anointed by Jesus to preach the gospel. The evidence of being anointed by Jesus is preaching that He is the Son of God. When men and women attend seminary and get their degrees they come out preaching another Jesus, a trinity or tri theistic Jesus who is one third of a trinity god. Why is this? Because they still have scales upon their eyes. They need a fresh revelation from Jesus Christ in order to know His true identity. Many will not have the scales removed because they trust in their religious education rather than the leading of the Holy Spirit. Paul said to follow his example as he follows Christ. Paul did not teach a trinity Jesus but he taught that Jesus is indeed the Son of God.

Entrance into the Kingdom of Jehovah necessitates a confession that Jesus is truly the Son of God. Unfortunately most denominations don't require this of potential converts and instead baptize them into a denomination and confessing that God is a trinity along with other man made requirements. Would the apostle Paul approve of modern Christendom's denial of Christ's literal Sonship? Would Paul approve of the false heretical teaching that Jesus Sonship is metaphorical? I can confidently say "No", Paul didn't preach that Jesus is the eternal Almighty God but rather that He is the Son of the eternal Almighty God.

Do you trust the words of Paul who had a direct revelation of Jesus or the words of men and women who have gained their education about Christ at spiritually dead seminaries?

I'll go with Paul and believe and preach that Jesus truly is the Son of God!!
