QUESTION: Could most of Scripture, huge parts of the New Testament, and especially the so-called ‘Hebrew’ Gospel of Matthew, be ‘lost,’ ‘replaced,’ and thus be ‘completely corrupted, as this cult alleges?’ ANSWER: No one can argue that many have attempted to do that — (the complete corruption of the truth of God’s Word,) but all have failed! Of course evil religionists have twisted, distorted, omitted, abused, used, misinterpreted, and added their destructive heresies to the Word of God, (Mark 7:13; 2 Pt. 2:1-22.) Many have ‘made the [truth] Word powerless through their traditions, and set aside the Word of God to hold on to their traditions, while teaching as commandments the commands of men,’ (Mark 7:7-13.) Thousands more, (their evil ‘hearts trained in covetous practices,’) have used the Word to ‘make utensils of you,’ [tools or useful pieces of equipment, in order to enrich themselves.] Instead of pouring out the Living Water of the Word, ‘they speak great swelling words of emptiness.’ Instead of giving souls the liberty of Jesus’ Gospel, ’they themselves are slaves of corruption.’ - 2 Pet. 2. HOWEVER, Jesus IS the Word of God, (Jn. 1:1-2.) The Word IS God. Jesus cannot get ‘lost,’ be destroyed, or corrupted! Through His Son, The Word, God created the heavens and the earth and all that is within it, (Heb. 1:1-14.) At the dawning of the New Testament dispensation, The Word, Jesus, “became flesh and lived among us,” (Jn. 1:14.) When Jesus, The Living Word, rose from the dead and ascended into heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit to indwell every one of His sincere believers, (Jn. 1:12-13; Gal. 4:6.) The Holy Spirit is The Teacher, The Spirit of Truth, Who came to lead Jesus’ disciples into ALL truth, (Jn. 16:13.) The Spirit ‘interpreted’ or revealed the purpose, unity, and the unbroken connection between the OT Scriptures and the NT Gospel of Jesus to His earliest disciples first, (Mt. 5:17; Heb. chapters 8-10.) Thus the Spirit did not dictate word-for-word, but inspired the NT Gospel, when He ‘moved’ or motivated them to write the original, 1st century manuscripts in HELLENES GREEK, (2 Pt. 1:21.) Of course the Spirit’s motivation had to filter through ‘earthen vessels’ unto paper, (2 Cor. 4:7; 2 Tim. 2:20.) As the Word was inspired and not dictated, it is true that one can find some “discrepancies” or human errors in Scripture. But in spite of ALL this, the ‘ENTIRETY OF GOD’S WORD’ - all N.T. Scripture taken together, as foreshadowed by the entirety of O.T. Scripture, became God’s NEW COVENANT OF TRUTH, written on paper, (2 Tim. 3:16; Heb. 8-10.)
If God allowed religionists to ‘lose’ and corrupt His “entire” Word, that would nullify His all-powerful promise and the existence of The Word, The Lord Jesus Christ Himself. The promise, which The (N.T.) Word, Jesus, confirmed by quoting O.T. Scripture, “It is written, ‘man will not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD [correctly quoted and contextually interpreted] that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” Of course, it is not written, ‘every word that proceeds from the mouth of Paul or Peter,’ because all the disciples were, and are, mere servants of Christ. But it is foolish to discard the epistles of Paul, because God Himself chose him [as all other] feeble, ‘earthen vessels’ to ‘explain’ the N.T. Gospel more clearly, (Gal. 1:12; 2:2; 2 Cor. 12:7.)
The Scriptures will always remain the miraculous wonder of God’s Word — which is found in the entire context of the Bible, and especially the N.T. Gospel in its entirety. Jesus Himself is The Word of God. Therefore, He could NEVER be ‘lost,’ annulled, or changed! Ps. 119:160 declares that ‘the ENTIRETY OF WORD IS TRUTH.’ In other words, if one reads the Bible from cover to cover, and ask the Father for the leading, teaching, and revelation of the Holy Spirit, one would definitely find the TRUTH of God’s Word, which ‘will NEVER pass away.’ God had miraculously preserved His Word there, on paper, because the ‘entirety’ of the Word is ‘INCORRUPTIBLE, and thus it endures FOREVER!’ Just as Jesus had promised, the words which HE spoke, ‘they are spirit, and they are life!’ · Mt. 4:4; 1 Pt. 1:23; Jn. 6:63. |

(Continued from) © COPYRIGHT NOW UNBANNED PUBLICATIONS ►► When on trial before Pontius Pilate, the Caesar’s prefect over Judea, he asked Jesus if it were true that He pretends to be the king of the Hebrew nation. The Lord answered, “My Kingdom is NOT of this world. If My Kingdom were of this world, My disciples would fight so that I should not be delivered to the Hebrews. But now My Kingdom is NOT from here,” (Jn. 18:36; 6:15; 8:15; Rom. 14:17.) ►►► This proves Jesus innocence as they certainly had no cause to accuse Him of political rivalry. Even before this, the Lord ministered His Truth to them and declared, “The Kingdom of God does not come with observation [like during a political takeover to establish a physical kingdom on earth.] Nor will they say, ‘See here is [the Judaist political Christ!’’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed THE [SPIRITUAL] KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN [ALL MY SINCERELY BORN AGAIN DISCIPLES,]” (Luke 17:20-21 KJV! 1 Cor. 3:16-17.) ►►► When Pilate, convinced of His innocence, tried his utmost to set Jesus free, the Judaists stood on their decision to murder their Divine Christ from heaven. They loudly pleaded false allegiance to the Roman Empire by shouting, “AWAY WITH HIM, WE HAVE NO KING BUT CAESAR! LET HIS BLOOD BE UPON US AND UPON OUR CHILDREN!” THEY ACTUALLY FOREVER CURSED AND CONDEMNED TO HELL THE ONCE FULLY BLESSED HEBREW (LATER JEWISH) NATION - AND ALL OTHERS FROM THE GENTILE NATIONS, WHO WOULD CHOOSE TO BELIEVE AND PRACTICE THEIR JUDAIST LIES AND BLASPHEMY ABOUT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST; GOD’S TRUTH, LIGHT, AND LIFE! ►►► Modern Christian Zionists, Messianic Judaists, and all other Judaists of all sorts also reject, mix, and move God’s Two extremely different Testaments or Covenants, (the first with the Hebrew nation, which was fulfilled and then annulled at the cross, and the second with all genuine believers from all nations, (Israel included,) which will stand forever. ► To justify the curse, which the Hebrew priesthood pronounced upon themselves and ALL their followers through all generations, (Christian Judaists too,) their descendants still teach everyone who will listen to reject God’s Son the ever-living Christ, to wait for a so-called ‘political christ’ that will save physical Israel. In fact, Judaists lead everyone, (even those who supposedly profess Jesus Christ,) to trust in the transliterated, Yiddish names of the false ‘messiah.’ Actually, they teach them to continually commit unparalleled blasphemy against the Most High and Holy God to continue in Judaist profanity . ► Israeli and Christian Judaists can rebuild as many temples in the earthly Jerusalem and fight as many wars as they are capable of to maintain Israel, the so-called “holy land,” but unless they fully repent from their sacrilege against God, they will never see nor enter the “new, spiritual Jerusalem” in heaven, the “heavenly country” and “eternal homeland” of all the believer-disciples of Christ Jesus Emmanuel, (M. 1:21-23; Heb. 8:7,13; 11:14-16; 12:22-24; Mt. 1:21-23.) · All these literal, spiritual, and documented facts OF God’s Word is why Christ Jesus cannot be ‘renamed’ as ‘Yehoshua Messiah’ or be called by any of the other artificial, Yiddish names that God NEVER commanded anywhere in Bible Scripture. Hence, neither Jews nor Gentiles need to supposedly ‘get back to their so-called Jewish roots; attempt to speak Yiddish to impress God and people, or obey any Judaist dogma to be saved. · Jesus Emmanuel, the Only Authentic God and Christ is all-knowing. As Creator of His entire universe and everything in it, (languages included,) Our Everlasting Father understands English and all other languages perfectly, (1 Cor. 13:1-3.)
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TRANSLITERATION AND TRANSLATION TRANSLITERATION means to either ignorantly or spitefully transfer letters, words, sentences, and passages carelessly from one language to another. DO NOT BELIEVE the Judaist ‘dictionary’ that states, “Tetragrammation [works as follows,] ‘JHWH’ TRANSLITERATED [NOT TRANSLATED] to ‘JHVH’ and articulated as Yahweh or Jehovah is correct.” This is exactly how all the false ‘names’ of God and His Son Jesus Christ were fabricated! On the other hand, TRANSLATION means to transfer, (by analyzing or LOGIC semantics and unbiased interpretation,) the real meaning of a word, sentence, paragraph, and passage from one language to another to express the true context and content of the text. ► The way Judaist transliterators work is to deliberately mistranslate and invent Yiddish sounding words and names from the NON-CONSONANTAL Hebrew alphabet that has no vowels. This is how they attempt to replace God’s Name and truth with Judaist names, phrases and doctrine. ► To establish outright lies and blasphemy against the Lord Jesus Christ, they also confuse Homographs in text: words that sound the same but differ in spelling and meaning: e.g., desert, (wilderness,) dessert, (pudding.) They also abuse ALLITERATION, (similar sounds in words and names,) to connect the Holy Name of Jesus to pagan gods and the occult. ► Furthermore, as we will see, they twist true Biblical facts and even pagan history and philosophy to make the Lord Jesus Christ into an “imposter” and the “filth of the earth,” to sustain their antichrist beliefs and agendas. The reason why they employ these satanic methods to distribute their transliterations is to get people to believe they are correct to return to Judaism and the ousted laws and outward religious customs of Old Israel, because the Name, Personhood, and ministry of Jesus are “false,” (see Heb. 8:1-13; 9:8-15.)
THE EVOLUTION, PRONUNCIATION, AND TRANSLATIONS OF HEBREW AND GREEK To understand the confusion about the Name of Jesus, let us cut back to the backdrop of the Hebraic, Hellenist Greek situation surrounding the birth of Jesus, as that is crucial to this study. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEBREWS AND JEWS. Hebrews were the original “Israeli” people during Old Testament times, (Gen. 32:28.) When they were dispersed globally since 600 B.C., Hebrews became known as Jews. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEBREW AND YIDDISH. THE OLD TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES WERE WRITTEN IN HEBREW FOR THE HEBREWS. Following Ancient Hebrew, Mikra or Miqra, (the meaning of what is read,) was used in Jesus’ days in 1 A.D in Hebrew Scripture. The Jewish Bible, the Tanakh, which Judaists base their teachings on, is the Medieval, 15 A.D., Yiddish transliteration derived from the Mikra. ► “Hebrew is a Semitic language, (a subgroup of Afro-Asiatic languages in the near and middle East,) like Arabic and especially ARAMAIC, [which was also commonly spoken among Hebrews.] The Yiddish language began in about 12 A.D., [eleven centuries after the birth of Christ in 1 A.D.] The Hebrew language was then virtually lost as] Yiddish is a German dialect which uses many Hebrew words, but with a distinctive Ashkenazic pronunciation. Hebrew pronunciation was standard Israeli (Sephardi): [ʕivˈɾit],” [Wikipedia.] ►► Consequently, today’s Jews are unable to pronounce the intricate language of the ancient Hebrews, as both ‘modern’ Hebrew, (Mikra,) spoken in 1 A.D., and Yiddish, which evolved 11 centuries later, changed over time. It is logic that the great differences between ancient Hebrew and Yiddish is one of the main causes of the growing Judaist confusion about New Testament Scripture and the Name of Jesus. [Brittanica.] THE OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE TRANSLATION FROM HEBREW: Some three centuries after Jesus’ birth, (there is not common agreement on the date,) Hebrew historiographers, (NOT 12 A.D. Yiddish transliterators or the Roman Catholic papacy,) ACTUALLY TRANSLATED most of the Hebrew Bible, (the Tenakh,) into Hellenes Greek to present it as our Old Testament of the Bible. THE GREEK LANGUAGE, NOT HEBREW, WAS USED TO WRITE THE NEW TESTAMENT: It is generally accepted that Mycenaean Greek is the oldest form of Greek. Israel was still under the oppression of the Roman Empire in 50 A.D. to 95 A.D. when Jesus’ apostles documented our New Testament Gospel in Hellenist Greek NOT HEBREW to be used as the language of the New Testament Scriptures, and most importantly, as the worldwide spreading of the Gospel among Hebrew and Gentile nations, (Jn. 3:16-18.) ► There is also some confusion about this, but Koine Greek only followed in 380 A.D., when the Roman Catholic church, which came into being in the latter part of 1 A.D. at Antioch, (Acts 11:26,) was established as the official religion of the Roman Empire in 380 A.D. Modern Greek started after that. Latin, used in writing rather than in language, developed in 7 A.D. ►►► As a result, Jesus and His disciples were familiar with Hellenes Greek. “[Yet, it is accepted that Koine Greek] is more specific in grammar and syntax [sentence structure] rules than [Hellenes] Greek…” [Britannica.] “It [is also stricter on] inflectional [word change or] linguistic [development.] This means [the meaning of] word ending depends on the situation, quantity, gender, and other elements [in the text,]” which makes it harder to mess with the context and semantics in Greek texts. “What is different between the old and the new, is that [Hellenes Greek] had long and short vowels; many diphthongs; double and single consonants; voiced, voiceless, and aspirated stops; and a pitch accent. In Koine and Modern Greek, vowels and consonants are short. Many vowels and diphthongs once pronounced distinctly are pronounced as /i/ (iotacism.)” [Wikipedia.] Changes in Greek mostly affect pronunciation, not the meaning of words and meaning. Greeks agree, though there were changes in pronunciation over the centuries, there were no major changes in Greek text. They are still capable of understanding and writing Greek perfectly.
THE ‘LOST’ GOSPEL OF MATTHEW IS A MASONIC BRAINCHILD! Jehovah’s Witnesses, Christian Zionists, Messianic Judaists, and other Judaist ‘Tanahk’ or Old Testament adherents falsely argue, “The book or gospel of Matthew, (even the entire New Testament) was written in Hebrew, and the New Testament Scriptures, written in Greek, are Roman Catholic corrupted versions of those texts.” However, “The Shem Tov Matthew, [which is the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ so-called ‘proof, that the New Testament was written in Hebrew,] is a mediaeval [15th century] manuscript [and not an earlier, original script,] containing a version of the Gospel of Matthew, written in YIDDISH, NOT THE ANCIENT HEBREW LANGUAGE. The Shem Tov Matthew is marked by its Jewish [Judaist] thought, and is interspaced with the comments of Shem Tov himself… “This blatant forgery reeks of Jewish Cabalism and Roman Catholic/Jewish masonry. So do all other false doctrines which, since the [1500s] Protestant Reformation but especially during the last two centuries or so, permeated the churches and set up new Catholic-[Judaist]-masonic church branches such as Calvinism/Lutherism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, the Charismatic Movement, and Messianic Judaism in particular.” [Credit Wikipedia and Fritz Springmeier]
ANCIENT HEBREW WAS A CONSONANTAL LANGUAGE WITHOUT VOWELS; VOCALIZATION IS UNKNOWN. JUDAISTS ADDED VOWELS RANDOMLY TO THAT ANCIENT ALPHABET TO SUIT MODERN YIDDISH ARTICULATION Jason Dulle explained that a great, overlooked fact in Hebrew script interpretation and translation, which can resolve the confusion about the Judaist dispute of the Name of Jesus and all the other so-called ‘discrepancies’ between Jesus Christ and the non-existent Jewish ‘messiah,’ whom they are still waiting for. Jason wrote, “No one knows exactly how Ancient Hebrew, [the language God spoke to Moses,] was pronounced. [Ancient Hebrew NOT modern Yiddish] is a consonantal language, [consisting only of b,c,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,m,n,p,q,r,s,t,v,w,x,y,z;’] having no vowels, [a,i,e,o,u...] ► “THE CLOSEST IDEA OF HOW TO PRONOUNCE ANCIENT HEBREW COMES FROM THOSE WHO LIVED SOME 2,300 YEARS AFTER THE EARLIEST HEBREW SCRIPTURES, and 1,300 years after the latest Hebrew writings…. · “There can be no doubt that the vocalization [of later years] was NOT that of the Paleo-Hebraic, [the ancient Hebrews,] or even the later Hebrew dialect up to the time of Christ.” Here is where semantics, (the logic meaning of words and phrases in context to understand speech,) become of the essence. ► “THE ONE AND ONLY NAME OF GOD, “YHWH,” IS UNPRONOUNCEABLE” as no one alive knows how to articulate His Name without vowels, (a,i,e,o,u,) MOSES’ ENCOUNTER WITH GOD AT THE BURNING BUSH PROVES THE ABOVE ► At the burning bush, (Exodus 3:6.) God introduced Himself by saying, (this was honestly TRANSLATED NOT TRANSLITERATED from ancient Hebrew,) “I AM the God of… Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob…” ► After that, when Moses insisted to know God’s Name, Exodus 3:14-5, (which proves that God introduced Himself in ordinary words not by a special name,) God revealed His Name to him, stating, “YHWH, (I AM WHO I AM,) IS MY NAME… [God then firmly commanded,] THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER AND THIS IS MY MEMORIAL TO ALL GENERATIONS [OF TRUE BELIEVERS, NOT ONLY HEBREWS…]” (John 3:16!]” · This declaration and commandment is the reason why truly orthodox Jews, (in stark contrast to Judaist Christians and proselyte Jewish Judaists,) never attempt to call God by transliterated, manufactured ‘names.’ “They believe God is so holy and His Name is so sacred, they dare not ever call Him by His Name. Therefore, they respectfully call Him ‘HaShem’ in Yiddish, which means ‘The Name.’” [Writer unknown.] ► THE TALK ABOUT GOD’S NAME AT THE BURNING BUSH CONTINUED in Exodus 6:2-4, “God [again] spoke to Moses and said, ‘I AM THE LORD. I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob AS ‘GOD ALMIGHTY,’ BECAUSE MY NAME ‘LORD’ WAS NOT [YET] KNOWN TO THEM.’” Thus, never believe Judaist, Yiddish Tetragrammers that transliterate, (not translate) ancient Hebrew to write their dogmas into Scripture! Concerning this verse, they actually say “Lord” transliterate as Yahweh! But when we use semantics to test what they say, we can prove that they lie! ► ► Two extra details come into focus through the context of these verses and passages, (Ex. 3:14;-15; 6:2-4.) First, GOD HIMSELF SAID “GOD ALMIGHTY” IS NOT ONE OF HIS NAMES as Judaists and Messianic Jews allege! Second, GOD SAID THAT “LORD” IS [EQUAL TO] HIS NAME YHWH! The NAME or word ‘LORD,’ can be used interchangeably as when He declares, , “I Am [YHWH] the Lord,” and when spoken to, God should be addressed as “Lord YHWH” or “Lord I Am!” So, the title ‘Lord’ is the prefix of His Name JHWH, which denotes the highest form of respect and ascribing ultimate power, rule, might, wisdom, and control to God. E.g., the prefix “sir or sire shows respect to a man. When written with a capital S, it becomes a title” that distinguishes the man as someone special.” [Dictionary.com] · ►► This is why God said that “LORD” is [equal to] His Name “YHWH.” The truly contextual translation of this is as follows. God’s Name is “LORD JHWH,” because God is too inexpressibly high and holy to be called by His One and Only Name. That is why we should say “The Lord God,” etcetera, when we speak to God. This should be a great comfort to sincere Jews who call God HaShem or “The Name,” as they believe His Name is too holy to articulate. If they add God’s “Name” or title “Lord,” to His Name,” they ascribe all the glory to Him, which He already possesses or owns. ► ►► GOD NEVER ADDED NAMES TO HIMSELF, (Exodus 3:15-16,) although from the beginning to the end of the Bible the list of descriptive references to the abilities of God such as “God Almighty,” (generally viewed as ‘names,’) is unending. Do not be fooled by Judaist distortions and Yiddish additions to the only, unpronounceable Name of God, “YHWH,” in Hebrew! E.g., “Shaddai, which is ‘The Almighty’ in Yiddish — (see above,) is totally unscriptural, (Ex. 6:2-4!)” Remember that God said to Moses in Exodus 3:14-16, “MY NAME IS JHWH. THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER; MY [unalterable] MEMORIAL FOR ALL GENERATIONS!” · The question arises, how can we call God by His Name YHWH if we cannot pronounce His Name? As seen, this is where honest translation of text, contextually and without additions and agendas, (according to the entire passage and especially in the declarations of God Himself,) comes in. As per the discussion above, (as far as we can analyze ancient Hebrew through Semantics,) God first introduced Himself at the burning bush as “I Am The God of your fathers…” (Ex. 3:6.) “I Am The Lord... My NAME is Lord. [They called Me] ‘God Almighty,’ because My Name “Lord” was not [yet] known to them, [but none of My attributes can be My Name!]” (Ex. 6:2-3.) It is certain that God said, “…LORD I AM WHO I AM.... IS MY NAME FOREVER AND MY MEMORIAL TO ALL GENERATIONS.” This Name of God contains His entire Personhood, Being, and Who He really IS as the Only Creator, Father, and Savior of humanity! ► In this context, the words of the Lord Jesus Christ in the New Testament and the real contextual meaning of YHWH came to life! God in the flesh of Christ Jesus constantly declared, “[I do not merely give life or bread.] I [Myself] Am the Resurrection and the Life. I Am the Bread from heaven. I Am the Good Shepherd. I Am the Alpha and Omega. Before Abram was, I AM!” · “LORD I AM WHO I AM” IS THE ONLY NAME OF GOD for all eternity AND THERE IS NO OTHER, which we can accept as the real, contextual, authentic TRANSLATION of YHWH — and let no other so-called TRANSLITERATED ‘names’ divert attention from this commandment of God!
THE SO-CALLED ‘UNPARDONABLE SIN’ OF NOT CALLING GOD AND HIS SON JESUS BY THEIR YIDDISH, JUDAIST INVENTED, “OLD TESTAMENT” NAMES Christian Judaists of all kinds and especially Jehovah Witnesses focus entirely on transliterated or manufactured, Yiddish “names” for God the Father and His Son Jesus in both the Old and New Testaments, to supposedly ‘save’ them, just because they call ‘god’ by those ‘names,’ (see Matthew 1:21-23!) It is clear that we are not talking about the One and Only Creator God here! In fact, they willing grab every so-called ‘name’ Yiddish Judaism conjure up, to disrespectfully and disobediently reject The True God’s eternal Name and thus also the Only Genuine God of the Bible. They do exactly the same with the everlasting Name of His Son, Jesus Emmanuel, (Exodus 3:14-15; 6:1-2; Matthew 1:21-2.) ►► They lead people to a strange god by using manmade ‘names’ as a means of salvation, and especially by ignoring the fact that the Authentic God of Bible Scripture FORBADE all people until the end of the world to call Him by ANY OTHER NAME THAN “LORD I AM!” (Ex. 3:14-13; 6:1-2!) Because they are completely brainwashed to focus on the blasphemous lies of Judaism, they never even think that God solemnly COMMANDED the same when He named His Son the Savior Christ and God With Us, “Jesus Emmanuel!” In fact, as Seventh Day Adventists, they say the Lord Jesus Christ is Michael the archangel! ► Acts 4:12 and Philippians 2:9-11 concluded, “...There is no other name given among men by which we can be saved… [as] JESUS is the Name ABOVE ALL Names!” Hence, it is not those who search for God’s actual truth to live holy in Him that are ‘blaspheming’ because they refuse to submit to Satanic lies about God and His Name. It is Jewish and Christian Judaists AND EVERYONE ELSE, who use so-called transliterated “names” of God, who are blaspheming against the Living God and His unchangeable, everlasting Name! ► We can now also understand why the Lord Jesus did NOT teach His disciples to pray to God by any of those so-called names. He simply told us to address the Most High God as “Our Father in heaven.”
