Hello!! Welcome aboard!

If you go back up to the 3rd comment, in that section I explained on my view of head coverings. :-)

Hello memaw!! You're doing great and still have your wits about you!! Love you!!

I do believe that it is quite a pertinent question to seek the answer to. Somehow, I doubt that YHWH purposefully planned Adam & Eve's disobedience.

I hope that in the future we can learn from the question posed here.

Hello!

My pastor is not big on it-- but even if it happens, I just look over certain parts that are of traditions. He's always changing whenever the Holy Spirit touches him so I know if anything, He will hear YHWH on that.

The situation must have been extreme enough for Paul to use that word-authenteo. In the same church, a son was having sex with his father's wife-- that's bad.

Anyway-- thanks for sharing, i enjoyed it! :-)

Shalom!

Eric and I are Messianics--however we go to church on Sunday being that YHWH had called us to stay there. The church we go to is an AWESOME church--it's no where near dead--the faith is there and people live their lives as "daughters and sons of the King". They understand the Kingdom of YHWH but there are some traditions there. I just know that my family have not been commanded by YHWH to leave the "ekklesia" for another "ekklesia". We do honor the Sabbath at home and gather with people who do the same. We keep the festivals (still learning about other festivals beside Passover), and so on. I put "Christanity" so people out there will know we accept Yahushua and understand the NT of the Scriptures.

I only saw one of your comments. It's a good thing you kept trying because I only see the 4th one. LOL.

I would take in consideration the Genesis 3:16 verse as the law Paul was referring to. It still falls in the category of wives and husbands issue rather than man and woman, as an individual, and telling ALL women to remain silent in the churches. That's a good one. Thanks for bringing that to light. Of course, we know when YHWH said that, he did not mean it in a way of "power trip", but that the husband must take good care of the family-- "carry the torch". The pagan wives at the church were commanded to remain silent and I suppose the husbands would have to enforce that, "as the law says". My husband would in a instant tell me to "be quiet" if I stood up at any kind of convention and started yelling crazy stuff. :-D :-D

Google authenteo under Catherine Kroger (you will find some who will disagree with her, you will have to look through) http://www.godswordtowomen..... This website has Kroger's article. Access to Thesarus Lingae Graecae requires a CD, but they do have a website search. I couldn't find authenteo on the website but it is ON the CD.If you are able to find authenteo on that website, PLS do let me know. I would rather keep that one as a source.

Regarding to Laws: to continue to make sacrifice is to put Yahushua's death in vain. If anyone believes in Yahushua and still does sacrifices--that's a dishonor. I really do not know much about what happens during the 1,000 year reign. I always say to do what is right now and that in itself will take care of your future. Ha. I personally do not think there will be anymore animal sacrifices ever because Yahushua said, "It is finished". What did Ezekiel mean? I'm not sure. I will have to study on that. :-) You can tell me more on what you've learned. :-)

I have always percieved all of YHWH's laws to be good because of health-- to avoid harm or death. cotton will shrink, too. ha. Like for example, eating pork--science show proof that pigs were designed to filter the bad air, virus, flu, germs from the earth and hold it inside their bodies. In the same manner, vultures clean up the carcasses of the earth. Pigs clean up the air. When bad viruses get into the pigs (bird flu, any viruses, etc), the pigs have no problem holding it into their body, they will NOT pass it to the next animal or release it back to the earth's atmosphere. Now, when you kill a pig and cook it, the viruses do not go away at all. When you eat the meat off the pig, you are still eating the viruses. This is why so many people nowdays have cancer. Pigs were never designed for us to eat, just as much as eating a racooon. So, if YHWH instructed it, that's because he does not want us to harm our bodies. This brings me to wanting to figure out why, health-wise, wool and linen cannot be mixed.

About head covering, yeah I agree with you-- it was something women did back then--- 50 years ago, women wore hats to church. -- some of them were radically big. :-D What you shared about shaving and not shaving made much sense. The pinning up and pinning down is an interesting view. Yes, Diana had lots of gold and pearl braided up. This is also why Paul said that he wanted them to dress modestly (because Diana was a goddess of fertility in where women would dress seducively to get men to be aroused) and in the same passage not to get their hair all braided up and so on. It is only for that group. If I braided my hair, you would not see it that I was trying to seduce a man. :-D Even if Paul was talking about a pinning up your hair, it does not mean that all of the women today in this generation have to do the same because Paul said the church does not hold any customs.

The word "covered" in that passage does not say anything of hair. I researched a bit more about that greek word, "kata". It also can mean, "coming out of". I'll look more into it.

Shalom Shabbat!

Hello Susan,

I only see one of your comment here, I guess you managed to delete one yourself? :-) And, sure, I'll tell eric to check your comment over at DVTV. (He's at football camp now--coaching HS football team).

In regards to the law--I agree with you, no where do I see in the Mosiac Law it says that women must be submissive to men, **edit** however, the situation is different when it comes to marriage. But man and woman as an individual, nothing in the Mosiac Law.

I do see in Chapter 18 of Leviticus where it describes different sexual behaviors that are an abdomination to YHWH and at the end it says to completely refrain from those pagan behaviors. I would presume this is the law that Paul was referring to since there were sexual immoralities in the church. **edit** I have not yet pinpointed exactly what law Paul was actually referring to (there's 613 of them).

Shalom!

***edit** I forgot to talk about women headcoverings. Forgive me if it is long.

Paul never said they must wear them as many think. He never used the word submission (the situation is different when it comes to "marriage". This context is talking about a man and a woman as an individual). Paul only said "head", which is a metaphor of "cornerstone". A cornerstone means "the chief foundation on which something is constructed or developed". Strong Concordance #G2776. It also has a definition of, "chief, prominent".

First before all this, let's go to seeing what YHWH commanded in his Law in regards to clothings. You and I know (I presume) that the Law is divided into two groups: Ceremonial and Moral. The Ceremonial part of the Law have been fulfilled by Yahushua. The only thing I see in the Law where YHWH instructs his people on clothes are:

1) "do not mix wool with linen" (Leviticus 19:19),
2) "wear tassels on the corner of their garments" (Number 15:38-39).

I categorize these under the ceremonial law, which have been fulfilled by Yahushua because YHWH has already written the law in our heart. I have the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit) dwelling in me. I am the temple of the Ruach Ha Kodesh.

I still cannot figure out why wool and linen being interwoven is not good. Science is showing a possible proof that the two materials, when put together, will release some kind of chemicals that are not good for the skin. I still do not know, though.

No where do I see in the Mosiac Law it states that a woman must wear a material headcovering, instead, in the new covenant, I see that YHWH has given woman a hair as her glory. It's just something as a glory for a woman.

The problem with the Corinthians Church is heresay (false teaching from pagan worshippers: we know it's the Oracle of Delphi pagans that had a big influence to the Corinth church.)

Paul says in the beginning of 1 Corinthians 11:

"Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you..." v. 2 (Notice Paul says "traditions"--"ordiance" used in KJV-- it can mean traditions. They are not commandments.)

Tradition can easily mean something of that time. We also see again in the same chapter where Paul says we really don't hold any customs. "But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of YHWH." v. 16

The Corinthians church was also confused who came first: Adam or Eve-- we see that Paul explained the "head" thing in the beginning of the chapter, verse 3: "But I want you to know that the head of every man is Yahushua, the head of woman is man, and the head of Yahushua is YHWH."

When Paul says the word "head", he can mean "cornerstone". He can also mean "chief". I really believe Paul was referring to cornerstone, but either way can work. YHWH is the cornerstone of Yahushua. YHWH is also the chief of Yahushua. Man is the cornerstone of a woman. It is out of the man that came a woman.

verses 4 -7 explains that if a man and a woman swapped positions, it would be a dishonor. It's a spiritual sense. Yahushua would not swap position with YHWH. A man and a woman do not swap positions. They are two different creatures. Man was created first and out from him came a woman.

then we see in verse 8, Paul explains that a woman came out of man (in which Adam was formed first, then Eve. The Corinthians church didn't know that truth since the Oracle of Delphi teaches a religion that is the opposite- woman formed first then out of her a man.)

verses 9-12, the man and the woman really work together. It's a team work thing as you would see between a President and a Vice-President. They work together but have different roles. ( ie: A woman bears children whereas a man does not.) And it does mention that it is for the sake of the.....angels. (Perhaps something to do with Lucifer trying to go over YHWH??)

verses 13-15: Paul says to judge for yourselves. We still do have a bit of that influence nowdays. A long hair on a woman is beautiful to many and a woman with bald head is strange to many. It's a cultural thing. A unkept man (with long unmaintained beard and hair) is often percieved differently than a man who is shaven and well kept.

then in verse 18, Paul points out that he believes that there is divisions among the church due to heresay. "For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it."

A material head covering is only a culture thing. Something that started later in the Scriptures and many women wore them, but that's not what Paul was talking about. He never said to use a material head covering. Look at the Greek word "kata", which Paul uses for the word "cover". The definition for "kata" (cover) says nothing of a material covering the head. The definition of the covered word are:

1) down from, through out
2) according to, toward, along

The Corinth church had an issue with Oracle of Delphi Temple in which they were teaching that women were created first and recieved a special knowledge to eat the fruit. (You can goggle about their teachings) Paul made a clarification on who was created first. We know that's Adam, not Eve.

It's a spiritual sense...It's a matter of order of who was formed first, (not cloth material).

Shalom, again! :-)

Hello Tamara--

Sorry I didn't check here and keep up with comments.

About buffet, yes, I agree with you. I shared with Barazonmeter (on DVTV) about what buffet really meant and he replied saying he realized that he misunderstood. Perhaps he will read your comments and see all the details.

You are correct, the Pharisees did not want to use YHWH's true name. They wanted to replace it with other names in fear of offending YHWH or using it in vain accidently. To be safe, they replaced His name. Yahushua came on Earth and told people to use His name and that made the Pharisees angry. Just the same as you explained above in your comment (below part).

Kelly- You are correct when you explained about names coming from pagan origns and such. God is a "generic" term referring to who YHWH is. God is not the Creator's name just the same as Katherine is not yours. YHWH is the Creator's name. I agree with you completely. When I pray or talk with the Father, I call Him by his name, however when minstering to the public, I use the generic identification "God" in order to help them understand who I am referring to. When one becomes closer to the Creator, they will learn to know YHWH's name. :-)

Jesus, on the other hand, has it WAY off, that's why I use Yahushua completely but sign Jesus because it is recognizable to the public. Within the ekklesia walls, i use Yahushua. :-)

Thanks for sharing that! I so want to do a vlog on this one but I have not been completely released by the Ruach Ha Kodesh to do so, yet. There's a time and a season for right messages. :-)

We all can rest knowing that God is a fairrrrrr judge. Eveyone will take account for their actions, the mother who do to their children and the sons/daughters who do to their alz parents. He's a fair Judge but as for us, who are in our right mind, we can do it right and spread the word. :-) Agree?

Yahushua is the correct spelling. Yeshua is a close pronouncation.

Hi Dolphinlover!

Make no mistake, the Mark of the Beast has been created. A friend of mine's friend invented it. He was a very wealthy man and the government asked him to create a very small chip (by the size of a rice) and the purpose of it was to make life easier for people (store every personal info in it. credit card info, background info, etc etc). He gathered a team and created it. It has been invented. It is very small as a rice and you can put it in the back of your heel or on your forehead between your eyes. When he created it, he became very sick--to the point of dying. A doctor, who was a christian, had him as a patient. As the doctor was taking care of the patient, the doctor realized that his patient was the very man who creaeted the mark of the beast. The doctor began to minister to the patient and gave him scriptures. The patient read the scriptures and realized that he was the very man that created the mark of the beast. He became very upset and heartbroken. He accepted Yahushua as his Messiah and He became well and healthy. He sold everything (he was veryyyy wealthy) and became poor. THen he became a minister and now is ministering to people about the mark of the beast. You can read about him on this website. http://www.trumpetmin.org/m...

I won't take it at all. The devil NEVER makes anything obvious. He is so good at being discreet and cunning. Of course, the devil will make the "mark of the beast" so unobvious. He will use "prevent child abduction" and many more excuses to get us to have the chip in our body and when the time arrives, the chip will be used solely for the anti-christ. It only takes a button to change the purpose of the chip. We have no idea what the chip can do so by all means AVOID taking anything that could "appear" to be the mark of the beast. The scripture says, "avoid any appearance of evil..."

This is the same concept with "stem cell". They have good intentions--and this justify many mothers' decision in having an abortion. They will think, "Well, at least my abortion is helping the world. I'm doing a good thing, a good cause."

Again, by all means, avoid anything that requires you to install something inside your body (where you do not have much control over).

Blessings.

If it was not true, it would not surprise me at all. I even mentioned in the vlog that I don't know if it actually happened. But the point of it was too good for me to pass up.

I agree with undisclosed above that snopes is extremely liberal. whether or not they would withhold factual information, i don't know. but most certainly their explanations and discussions are slanted from a liberal point of view.

Ah, 'ol Mr. Adolf Hitler. He was many things, but a Christian? I best leave that up to Jesus and God to determine.
As you know, the most devastating enemy a group of people can have are those who are within. Hitler sullied the name of Christianity. Good thing the scriptures teach us to look to no one else except the author and finisher of the faith, Jesus.

Just as you would not want to be associated with a "do-no-good athiest", I ask that Christians not be associated with Hitler. Deal?

Hello atheist. Thanks for the compliments. My intention was not to poke fun at atheists, but rather give them something to think about. I'm sure that some atheists will cast aside my vlog and pay no mind to it. But I'm also sure that there is at least one that took it into consideration. And if so, then my vlog is worthwhile. Eternity is at stake here.

I've never seen your adaptation of the fish "proverb". That's a good one. But it doesn't apply to the God I know because fish were often central in Jesus' teachings. Even in one instance where obedience resulted in a large # of fish caught. So, i would modify your version by saying. Teach a man the ways of God, and he doesn't need to learn how to fish. :)

Thanks for taking the time to come and post a comment. Perhaps we will meet again. Have a great day!

hi,

yes, you can google the internet and find out when the letter "J" was added to the alphabet. It was only 500 years ago. Also Ieosus is a greek name for the pagan god Zeus and somehow it got mingled to Jesus it became Ieous. That name never existed while the Apostle Paul preached.

This is the same with the word "Lord". God was always called "Adonai" or "Messiah" for Jesus. The word Lord was added much later. :-) Greek text would be Adonai. :-)

Re: What Good Is My Yahweh (God)?

leforstribe — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:01:51 -0000

Using Yahweh and Yahushua is the same as using God and Jesus. Do we say, "Jesus made the world in 6 days?" No, but we know Jesus was with God when that happened. :-)

In hebrew text, God's name was always spelled this YHWH-- both in Old and New. It was never "God". It is pronounced Yahweh. Same thing with Jesus-- Hebrew and Greek text always spelled this YHSHUA (sp?), never "Jesus" and pronounced Yahshua. The name Jesus only appeared 500 years ago. Before that, it was Ieosus and that was like 1000 years ago. During Apostle Paul's time and so on, it was always "Yahweh and Yahushua"

When I pray or mediate, I call God and Jesus by their REAL and ORIGINAL names. When I talk to friends or other people, I use Jesus and God because I don't want to confuse them. :-)

Lori,

My name is June Ann LeFors but I have an internet name of LadyLeFors (old xanga blog and email address).

My vlog was about how christians can behave like unbelievers. We read in the Bible that Yahweh is for us and he will supply all of our needs but we often show unbelievers that we struggle and that Yahweh has not met our needs. Then when we try to tell unbelievers about how good our God is and how salvation is important. They see that christians are no better than them...they don't want to know about our God. They often say, "What good is your God?" because we sit with the unbelievers and act like a beggar. We need to get up, be strong, be prosperous, be of good health, firm, loving, joyful, peaceful, etc.

"Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers."- 3JOhn 1:2

Yes :-) The 1 Corinthians 12 tells us that we are all equal yet we have a different position in the Body of Christ. Keeping this passage in mind,--Paul, the same writer of this verse also wrote the below.

"You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus,for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." -Galatians 3: 27-29

Re: A Messianic Hanukkah

leforstribe — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 12:26:23 -0000

I agree that things have changed over time, no doubt.

As for the shamash, it has always been called the "servant". Those who believe in the Messiah know who the true Servant is. I guess now to teach their children that the shamash, as a servant, is the Messiah.

As for gift giving, I still give out gold coins :-) but gifts, yes, i understand. Purim is really a time when everyone give gifts. It's scripturally-- "That is why rural Jews--those living in villages--observe the fourteenth of the month of Adar as a day of joy and feasting, a day for giving presents to each other. Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the Jews throughout the provinces of King Xerxes, near and far, to have them celebrate annually the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar..." Esther 9:19-21.

Purim should be a time to give gifts but..arragh, pressure from society makes people feel they need to fix some certain things. Thus the gift giving over Hanukkah instead of Purim.

Have you seen how people decorate their house hanukkah-wise on youtube.com? some websites too? they're making it more festival. "Keeping up with the Joneses" LOL. blown up size of driedels, menorahs, star of david, etc. Even in Israel... :-)

Never heard of hanukkah bushes? new?
