A.  Babylon:
  • What does it mean to be in "Babylon"?
It has been said that today's Christian Church is asleep, in a coma, in Babylon because it worships the name of a demon on the traditional day of pagan sun god worship and celebrates God in pagan ways at pagan times.

  • Why are the churches there?
According to Etymologist Lew White, Dr. C. J. Koster, and the Institute for Scripture Research, we have been lied to for over 1600 years.  You can read about it in Lew's book called "Fossilized Customs and in C. J.'s book called "Come Out of Her MY People".  They can be found at www.fossilizedcustoms.com as well as "The Scriptures", a non-paganized Bible translation.

B.  Jesus:
  • Seven reasons I know that "Jesus" is not the Savior's name.
    1. "Jesus" is a Greek name.  Our savior was Hebrew.
·         What does the name mean?

According to Lew White, "Jesus" means "Hail Zeus" or "Praise Zeus", the primary Greek pagan god.

    1. Records indicate His name is spelled "YOD HEY VAV SHIN AYIN".  Any first year Hebrew student can tell you that this does not spell "Jesus".
    2. The Scriptures tell us that the Father's name is contained in the Son's name.  The Father's name is not contained in "Jesus".
    3. When Ken Thornburg of California tried to cast a demon out in the name of "Jesus", the demon said back to him "You can't cast me out in my name".  Demons are terrified of Messiah's name and they hate it.  A demon is not ever going to be named by it.
    4. You might be thinking that "Jesus" couldn't possibly be the name of a demon.  Unfortunately I have personal experience to the contrary.  I met a girl who was attending Awanas meetings wednesday evenings at a local Christian church when she was 7 years old.  One day she started lying and telling horrible disgusting things to anybody that would listen.  Her mother discovered this all started when she went forward at Awanas to give her life to "Jesus".  She obviously got the demon.  Her mother lived with that demon for 7 long years and had no doubt that it was the demon Jesus speaking thru her.  I was warned 2 years after the fact that a 7 year old is too young to ask Christ into her life because children that young don't have discernment of spirits.  They can't tell who they are inviting in.  And, when you're only going by the name "Jesus", you obviously don't know what you're going to get.
    5. I met a man named David in a singles group in Monroe, Washington.  David was married, but God told him to meet someone, there; ME.  And thru a rather odd series of events, my boat wound up in Houston, Texas where David lives.  When I went there to get it, David and his wife, Susan, told me this story:
"We were at a Passover celebration when a very tall man was teaching.  He was very knowledgeable and taught with great authority.  After the meeting and the teacher left, the Pastor asked David where he got such a great teacher to which David replied "I didn't get him, I thought you did".  No one seemed to know where he came from".

·         What does He prefer to be called?

"Before the teacher left, he said, referring to David and the Pastor calling Him "Lord"; they prefer to be called  “Yahuveh" and “Yavehshua”.  These are Sacred, Holy names.  Do not disrespect or abuse them.  If you do, the plagues written in the Book of the Revelation will be upon you".  

David and Susan added "they are very powerful because they call directly upon God.  And don't try to demand anything, but always ask "if it be your will" because you will get what you ask for and if it's not God's will, you could have the Revelation plagues upon you."

    1. My spirit testifies to the validity of these names.  I know that I know that they put me directly in contact with my heavenly father.  In contrast, the name "Jesus" never gave me the same experience, even though I had been a Christian for many years previous.  I even met a lady at Camano Chapel near Seattle and mentioned that "Jesus" was never His name, and she replied, "I know that Jesus is the name of a demon".
  • How did the name "Jesus" get into the Bible?
Jesus is the name that the Messianic Jews started proclaiming as the Messiah around the 4th century AD when they were trying to spread the good news of the Gospel all over Western Europe. Unfortunately, the Greeks hated the Jews and weren’t about to accept a Jewish God. So, they falsified His name, calling Him a name that was almost identical to their pagan sun god, “Iesous”. They wrote the name “Jesus” into the Greek New Testament in place of the Hebrew name he had always been known by up until that time.

C.  Lord & Adonai:
  • Why does the Bible tell us that "The Lord" is our God?
In addition to the name of the Son of God being falsified for over 1600 years, the name of God the Father in the Old Testament was replaced with “Lord” or “The Lord” to appease the pagans who worshipped many different lords such as “Baal’, “Sol”, “Ahura”, etc. In the New Testament, God and the Son of God are both translated “Lord” or “The Lord” so they are indistinguishable, leading one to believe that the Son of God is His own father, an obviously RIDICULOUS CONCLUSION! In the original Hebrew, we find they have different names and different functions. The name of God was given to us as “Yahuveh”; not “The Lord”, “Jesus”, “Adonai” or “Jehovah.

  • What do "Lord" and "Adonai" mean?
In the Scriptures, "Lord" is only used to refer to pagan, counterfeit gods.   In addition, many demons are referred to by the title of "lord" and, of course, Satan is always referred to as "Lord Satan" by his demonic followers.  "Adonai" is a counterfeit name that was used by the Hebrews when they were held captive in Babylon.  They used it so their captives would not find out the true name of God.

  • What's wrong with using these names?
Using insulting names such as these is a violation of the commandment where God said "Thou shall not bring my name to nothing" or as Lew White says "Thou shall not falsify my name"

  • What does God prefer to be called?
According to the Passover teacher (angel) that David and Susan told me about, He prefers to be called "Yahuveh"

D.  Prayer:
  • Turbo-charge your prayer life by using our Heavenly Father's preferred name that puts you directly into that Holy place where Moses was when God told him to take off his shoes because he was on Holy ground.  And, I always pray the way St. Paul taught us...in the name of  "Yavehshua".  Paul never even knew the name "Jesus".


E.  The Vision:
  • If God the father came down to earth in the body of our Messiah, why did he have to ask permission, and furthermore, why was He denied?
  • If God is "one" as the Scripture says, how can He be "three"?
To answer these questions, the Holy Spirit of Yahuveh gave me the following vision April 14, 2001 to show me how the relationship between Him and Yavehshua can be compared to a human hand.

THUMB: This finger is different from all the rest and represents the creation of Yahvehshua by Yahveh, in this case, a thumbs up, positive action. We know from the Scriptures that God is one and that He created all things that were created. Since we know that Yahvehshua existed eternally with His Father before the foundations of the Earth, it follows that time, itself, which we know is a created dimension, was created after Yahvehshua.

INDEX FINGER: This is the finger that points directions and therefore it represents the direction that the Son gets from the Father. Yahvehshua 's mission on Earth was to do the will of His Father who sent Him. He prayed often for direction so that He could know and do the will of Yahuveh.

MIDDLE FINGER: This is the longest finger and represents the power that Yahvehshua gets from The Father. As the Scriptures indicate, the power Yahvehshua used to heal, raise from the dead, etc. all come from Yahveh.

RING FINGER: This finger represents union, glory, and the glory of union. The two are inseparable in this context. This finger is where the wedding ring is worn to represent union with a spouse and the uniting is considered to be a glorious event. In the case of Yahvehshua, the union is in the form of sonship with The Father and the glory that The Father bestows upon the Son. The Scriptures tell us that Yahvehshua gets His glory from His Father, not from us. Therefore, if we want to glorify the Son, Yahvehshua, we need to glorify Yahuveh, the Father, because Yahuveh is the source of Yahvehshua 's glory. The ring finger also represents the union Yahvehshua has with his born-again servants and the spousal relationship we will have with Him after the wedding feast.

LITTLEST FINGER: This seems to be the most insignificant finger of all, but it's like a fuse in an electrical circuit. Nothing works without it. It represents the authority, that Yahuveh gives Yahvehshua. Without the authority to use His power, Yavehshua could do virtually nothing.

VISION SUMMARY: Yahvehshua was created by and gets His direction, His power, His glory, and His authority; all from Yahuveh, His Father.  After all, Yavehshua did say that He and His Father are one.  They are one in direction, having one source of power, one authority and sharing glory together.  And, in case you might be wondering, because He has been given complete authority, Yavehshua is god of this planet.

F.  Coming Out of Babylon:
  • How can we come out of Babylon?
We come out of Babylon by following God's commandments.  Yavehshua said that until heaven and earth pass away, not one jot, nor one tittle of the law would pass away.  According to the book of Hebrews, he only replaced the sacrificial law with His own sacrifice.  The 10 Commandments remain, including the third commandment, which prohibits us from falsifying God’s name by calling Him something different.  The fourth commandment requires us to keep the seventh day dedicated to God and set apart from the rest. Most Christians not only don’t do this, but worship on the traditional day of pagan sun god worship in open flagrant defiance of this commandment.  God said that the seventh day Sabbath would be a sign between Him and His people.  Yavehshua was Jewish, not Christian. He celebrated Jewish festivals and kept the 10 Commandments like all of His followers did for over 300 years.

  • What difference will it make?
According to the Book of The Revelation, if you come out of Babylon, you won't have to suffer the plagues written in that book.

G.  Comments:
  • By Paul Sides:
I have another angle you might want to consider, the simple etymology of the name "Je-sus":

http://www.sabbathcovenant.com/doctrine/sus_is_latin_for_pig.htm

I simply break down the Latin prefix and suffix and it comes out to Earthly Pig.  Understanding that "Jesus" is the pig sacrifice of Ishtar (Easter) the picture begins to clarify.  And Easter is The Abomination that Desolates the Temple of YHVH see: http://www.sabbathcovenant.com/doctrine/abomination_that_causes_deso.htm

The Earthly Pig (Jesus) blood of Easter is on the alter of our hearts replacing the blood of the Passover Lamb (Yahshua) causing the destruction of the Temple of YHVH (our bodies).
