234 Our fathers in the faith were promi

Our fathers in the faith were promised eternal life.

In the beginning when YHVH created Adam and Eve, He created them with the potential to live forever. However, after Adam sinned YHVH told him and his wife that they were made from the dust of the ground and would eventually return to dust, when they die. They disobeyed Him when contrary to His command they chose to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, knowing that there were two trees in the midst of the Garden. Elohim did not forbid our original parents to eat from the tree of life, but Satan deceived Eve to take and eat from the forbidden tree of the knowledge of good and evil and contrary to what some believe and as some modern English translations of the Scriptures assert, YHVH did not slaughter a lamb to cover them with lamb skin after Adam sinned, but He covered their bodies with skin (derma). YHVH did not start the sacrificial system for sin at that time. However, it is important to understand that the sacrificial system in respect for sin was introduced when the Levites replaced every first-born of Israel as priests, after the Israelite’s sin involving the golden calf. YHVH also later showed Abraham when He told him to sacrifice Isaac his only begotten son that He will eventually provide Himself (as) the Lamb as a sacrifice to buy back the piece of the Promised Land the house of Israel lost, due to idolatry, but also to pay the penalty for their sins as our Kinsman Redeemer.

Prior to this sin, Adam and Eve were created in the image of Elohim and accordingly covered with light as He covers Himself with light (as per Psalm 104: 1 & 2[1]). If only they partook of the tree of life, they would have lived forever. However, after Adam and Eve’s fall they forfeited their garments of light and were clothed in garments of skin (explained in ‘Etz Chaim, Gate 150’). It is written in the Zohar that a ‘garment of woe’ clung to Adam. The difference between light and skin is also the numerical value of sorrow (transliterated as ‘Yagon’ in Hebrew). The difference between light (אור) transliterated as ‘ohr’ and skin (עור) also transliterated as ‘ohr’ in Hebrew is the numerical value between Aleph and Ayin, namely 69, which is also the numerical value of sorrow, but also of poverty (transliterated as ‘Ebion’ in Hebrew). This is why we ask YHVH in the Amidah prayer, to ‘remove from us sorrow and groan. Reign over us, You YHVH alone with kindness and compassion. Justify us through judgment. Blessed are You, YHVH, the King who loves righteousness and judgment.’ The numerical value of ‘Yagon’ (69) will be removed when we are resurrected at Messiah’s return and will again be covered in light. We see from Psalm 17: 15, that King David from the house of Judah knew that even when he dies, he will one day be resurrected and will once again have the light that Adam lost after he sinned, saying: ‘As for me, I shall behold Thy face in righteousness; I will be satisfied with Thy likeness when I awake.’ This is also confirmed by Rav Yochanan, Messiah’s closest disciple who also knew this about those of us from the lost sheep of Israel, who are returning to the way of Elohim, as Messiah’s modern day disciples, when he wrote in 1 John 3: 2, saying: ‘Beloved, now we are children of Elohim, and it has not appeared as yet what we shall be. We know that, when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him just as He is.’

After Elohim barred Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden and the ‘Tree of Life’ (symbolic of His Torah teachings by means of which He gives those who remain obedient to Him a portion of His Set-apart Spirit), the whole world became corrupt and YHVH destroyed all life from earth in the flood, except for Noah, his family and the animals which YHVH led to enter Noah’s ark for protection during the flood. However, mankind’s initial failure was repeated after the flood with the rebellion at Babylon led by Nimrod, when YHVH started over again with one man called Abram. The promise YHVH made to Abraham, through Isaac and Jacob entails eternal life in the coming kingdom of Elohim. But because Esau sold his birthright to Jacob and later became extremely jealous of the blessing that Jacob and his sons received at that time, he is all out to prevent the house of Israel from receiving the blessing of eternal life. He basically achieved this after the house of Israel consisting of the lost ten tribes separated from the house of Judah during the time Jeroboam ruled the house of Israel. The Assyrians took them captive during 721 – 718CE and took the majority with them into Europe where the lost sheep of the house of Israel was initially hidden amongst the people of Greece and were later absorbed by Rome and over time lost their language, culture and religion and became Christianized. Esau therefore ensured that the house of Israel remained in captivity under the guise of the Roman Catholic Church and her protesting daughters for the past 1800 years, thus preventing them from receiving the blessings of Abraham, by offering them a counterfeit salvation through a false messiah, who came to abolish the Torah teachings of YHVH, resulting in them to come under the curses of the Law given in Deuteronomy 28: 15 - 68. Because the house of Israel came to believe that the Tanach has been replaced by the so-called ‘New Testament’, very few of them know the reason why YHVH eventually scattered them into the world, but because of idolatry[2], with the so-called reward of the saved to spend eternal life in heaven and that of the wicked to spend eternity in an everlasting hell fire. However, since YHVH remained loyal to the promises He made to the children of Israel in Deuteronomy 4: 27 - 31[3], He started calling a remnant according to His gracious choice from the house of Israel (as per Romans 11: 5[4]) to eventually join the house of Judah to become the bride of Messiah and to remarry Him when He comes to rule the world from Jerusalem.

Because history repeats itself, the tragic lesson of ancient Israel is an example of mankind’s main problem. Even though Elohim gave them physical freedom and protection, they never lost their spiritual blindness, selfishness and the lust that enslaved their minds in Egypt. The same self-destructive tendency has plagued mankind since the fall of man and their removal from the Garden of Eden. The house of Israel insisted on choosing gods of their own design and writing their own rules ever since YHVH split the commonwealth of Israel into two kingdoms. The house of Israel, like the rest of mankind enslaved itself when they rejected Elohim’s teachings and way of life, as witnessed in 2 Kings 17: 33 & 34, as follows: ‘They feared YHVH and served their own gods according to the custom of the nations from among whom they had been carried away into exile. (34) To this day they do according to the earlier customs; they do not fear YHVH, nor do they follow their statute or their ordinances or the law, or the commandments which YHVH commanded the sons of Jacob, whom He named Israel.’ A truism is that if we did not learn from our history – what went wrong in the past will happen again, without us knowing how to handle what is coming. South Africa, like the United States and to a lesser extent the United Kingdom, used to pride themselves once as people who know their G-d. But, I am afraid that most of us do not even know what it means to know our Creator anymore. Our people are in trouble without even realizing it - so much so that some believe they never had it this ‘good’. Fellow Israelites, we need to wake up and get to know the one and only true Elohim (the transliterated Hebrew title of the G-d of Israel), the only One who is able to save us from our present situation. The reason why most people and especially those from the lost ten tribes are not even aware what is happening to us at this time, is because they do not know that we are part of the lost ten tribes of Israel, whom YHVH scattered into mainly the western nations of the world.

If only they understood this, they would have realized that most of the prophecies written in the Scriptures are about what is going to happen to us at the end of the age and would have taken corrective action by turning to Elohim and the way He prescribes in His word. If only we knew the history of Elohim’s people, we will know that He is a merciful Father. If only we turn or rather return to Him and His will for us. This is in fact what YHVH told King Solomon in second Chronicles 7: 13 & 14, saying: “If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, (14) and My people who are called by My name (the three tribes of the house of Judah, but also the remnant of the lost ten tribes of Israel, whom YHVH is busy calling out of the false churches of the world, to repent and follow His ways) humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways (Sunday worship, eating of un-kosher food, keeping Xmas and Easter), then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” However, our people have for many years called on the name of a deity called G-d (or Gawd[5] and Lord meaning Baal), because of the deception that occurred with the introduction of Christianity by none other than Satan’s agent Simon Magus, who also introduced the concept of payment for ‘spiritual lessons’, as opposed to what Messiah told His disciples when He first sent them out in Matthew 10: 5 – 8, saying: “Do not go in the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter any city of the Samaritans; (6) but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (7) And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ (8) Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons; freely you received, freely give.” Say to any of the teachers in Israel today, that they should teach fellow Israelites for free and you will see a revolt of ‘religious leaders’ similar to those who strike for higher wages among the workers in South Africa. Because of the confusion so prevalent among Israelites worldwide about the names and titles of the deities they worship, we need to go back in the history of Israel, to see how Elijah handled the situation when Israel called on Baal and he got them to return to YHVH the Elohim of Israel, which is also the meaning of the name Eliyah (meaning My Elohim is YHVH).

The account of what happened to ancient Israel is relevant to our time. But the past hundred years have been more barbaric than what happened in the days of Moses. About 80 years ago Hitler who was possessed with satanic arrogance even worse than Pharaoh pushed the world into the deadliest, most destructive war in human history. He almost succeeded in accomplishing his intention of exterminating all Jews in Europe. During the last 80 years mankind showed that the slaughter of six million Jews and thousands of Cambodians, Ugandans, Rwandans, Chinese, Syrians, white farmers in Zimbabwe and South Africa that brutality and bloodthirstiness are alive and thriving in our modern society. Racist slogans like ‘kill the boer (a name white South Africans from Dutch descent identify themselves with), kill the farmer’ have been bandied about by a number of political parties before the South African elections followed by promises and changes the President is planning to make to the constitution allowing them to take properties of white citizens without any compensation. In a recent scenario sketched by Clem Sunter a well-known South African scenario planner and adviser to Anglo American, a major player in the South African mining industry in which he discussed the future prospects for South African youths. He emphasizes that: ‘The article is not really about race – it’s actually about race – it’s actually about numbers of the youth – but thanks to Stats SA who do still base their reports on race this is the way it comes out. I have extracted and condensed the figures to highlight the youth – the future of the country, the figures being courtesy of Statistics SA, 2014: Total ages between 0 – 24 years: Blacks – 22,557,106; Coloreds – 2,172,685; Asian – 501,349; White – 1,433,304. Ratios: Blacks – 84, 6%; Coloreds – 8, 2%; Asian – 1, 8%; White – 5, 4%. Comparatively the ratios for the entire population are 80% Black, 9% Colored, 2, 5% Asian and 8, 5% White. Total population being 54 m. If one had to plot the birth rate of the youth, dating back to 1990, from the above table, one would note the following: The figures for White, Colored and Asian youth have remained fairly static since 1990, whilst those for the Blacks have increased steadily since 2005 to a point where they now account for almost 85% of their age group. Since 1990 the numbers of Black youth – aged 0 – 24 – have increased by 11% whilst those of the Coloreds, Asians and Whites have decreased by 1%, 9% and 15% respectively. Simply put, the Black birth rate is increasing fast – steadily – that of Coloreds is decreasing slowly, that of Asians decreased between 1990 and 2005 but is now increasing slightly again and the White birth rate is declining rapidly – and steadily – and has been doing so since 1990. Those who thus keep harping on about driving the Whites into the sea should not bother anymore as we’re disappearing fast anyway and by 2030 are liable to account for less than 2% of the total population. The bad news of course is that starvation, unemployment and misery are likely to still be present, but they’ll apply generally on to Blacks – their being over 90% of the population by that stage – and generally to young Blacks. At present there are in fact 4, 9 million Black youngsters aged 0-4 whereas the total white population is 4, 5 million. Consider also that there are another 4,5 million Black youngsters aged 5-9, another 4,3 million aged 10-14 and another 4,3 million aged 15-19 – hopefully all at school – and you begin to see the enormity of the challenge facing the country and the government in attempting to feed, house, educate and otherwise sustain such numbers. Regarding unemployment amongst the youth – calculated at 48% across the board by Stats SA – it would seem that of a total population for this group of 10, 4 million, 5 million are thus unemployed, and even more disturbing is that at least 4, 2 million of these are Black. Considering that the entire White population is about 4, 5 million this is a figure that should worry all with regard to education, crime, service delivery, government expenditure, job creation and socio-economic woes. The above all give us pointers to where the country is going and most importantly what problems can be foreseen. The youth – aged 15-24 – currently account for 20% of the total population, some 10 million of them, whilst the young – aged 0-14 – form 30% of the population and number some 16 million. Add these two groups together – 50% of the entire population and 26 million in number – and you see the size of the problem facing us unless jobs are created, fast, or the Black birth rate is slowed. Quite noticeable, AIDS hasn’t had the effect it was claimed it would have and as a result the young Black population is exploding way beyond what the country can cope with, now or in the future. Unfortunately it would seem that the government, AKA the ANC, are either unaware or uncaring of this growing problem when they should be seriously worried for grants, subsidies, education, housing, services – all things relating to this age group in fact – are going to eat an increasingly larger portion of their budget, regardless of what they do now. The South African economy needs to grow fast, starting now, if it is going to absorb another 26 million job seekers over the next 15 years. We can’t export them; we have to create jobs for them! For this reason alone the government should be actively creating an environment wherein jobs can be easily created, they should be attempting to slow the Black birth rate and they should be concentrating on creating capitalistic solutions for hungry mouths, rather than attempting to instill socialistic ideas in an exploding population of young hopefuls. If they are not doing so, and to all intents and purposes it seems they are not, then SA is heading for a huge problem, notwithstanding Eskom (the power generating utility) and the rest, in that there will be more young people than there will be enough food, drink, housing, education and services to cater for them. Socialism is definitely not going to feed that many mouths and grants and subsidies will eventually cripple the future government.’

This despite us being a people who pride ourselves of our enlightenment compared to the religion of the ancient Egyptians. The people mentioned including white South Africans had to and will have to endure the same Scriptural account of oppression that ancient Israel endured. Even though most members of the lost ten tribes insist that we no longer worship insects, stars, planets, animals and rivers like the ancient Egyptians did, instead the objects of our worship and affection, have become sensual pleasures, endless parties, modern gadgets, money and materialism. These created things are again enslaving our minds and cultures as our ancient forebears were enslaved to their pagan gods. Both Yahshua and Moses advocated Elohim’s way of life. In fact Yahshua personified Elohim’s way – in that He was our perfect example of how to follow Elohim’s way of life, as Rav Shaul explains in Colossians 1: 17 – 23, saying: ‘And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. (18) He is also head of the body, the congregation; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything. (19) For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness (of Elohim) to dwell in Him[6], (20) and through Him, to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven. (21) And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, (22) yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— (23) if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Shaul, was made a minister.’ Yahshua came to show us the true way to freedom, as He said to the Jews who believed Him in John 8: 31 & 32: “If you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; (32) and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” This is the perfect righteous character Elohim gave us to follow and to conform to as Rav Shaul also explained in Romans 8: 28 & 29, saying: ‘And we know that Elohim causes all things to work together for good to those who love Elohim, to those who are called according to His purpose. (29) For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren.’

Despite the objections of modern Churchianity, Elohim used Moses to define righteous behavior for all time. Yahshua made a prerequisite to faith in Him and belief in the Torah that Moses wrote in John 5: 46 & 47, saying: “For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote of Me. (47) But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?” Rav Yaa’cov, Yahshua’s half-brother, spoke of the Torah saying in James 1: 25, ‘But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man shall be blessed in what he does.’ In a so-called religious country like South Africa, thousands of sincere believers go to church on Sunday and special Xmas services, without knowing that they are sincerely wrong. It is for this reason that we read from Isaiah 10: 20 – 22: ‘Now it will come about in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those of the house of Jacob who have escaped, will never again rely on the one who struck them, but will truly rely on YHVH, the Holy One of Israel. (21) A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty Elohim. (22) For though your people, O Israel, may be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant within them will return; a destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.’ A remnant in the Scriptures usually means 10% of the total; therefore only a relatively small number of the house of Israel will be saved alive. The reason for this is as YHVH prophesied through Jeremiah in Jeremiah 3: 14, saying: ‘Return, O faithless sons,’ declares YHVH; ‘for I am a master to you, and I will take you one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion.’ YHVH is only calling a small number of believers from the lost sheep of the house of Israel (including a number of real Gentiles) to become first fruit believers, to learn His will and way, so that they may become kings and priests with their Torah observant brothers from the house of Judah, ruling under Yahshua during the millennium and into eternity. The second harvest of human souls will be a larger harvest, but will only happen after the millennium and second resurrection (as recorded in Revelation 20: 4 – 6 and Isaiah 25: 7 - 9). The way of YHVH that Yahshua came to show us is a very lonely narrow road and there are not many true believers to encourage us, but as YHVH said to Elijah in verse 18 of first Kings 19, there are others like us, throughout the world who has not bowed the knee to the false gods of this world.

Since there are only a small group in the world doing the work of Elohim at this time, we have an enormous task ahead, as the prophet Malachi wrote in Malachi 4: 4 – 6, saying: “Remember the law of Moses My servant, even the statutes and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel (not only the Jews). (5) Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of YHVH (Yom YHVH will follow after the two and a half years of tribulation before Messiah’s return one day and will be the time of the Seven Trumpet Plagues discussed in Revelation 8: 1 to Revelation 11: 15 & 19 and 19: 1 - 21.) (6) And he will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse (Allah).” We are the ones whom YHVH is preparing to teach people to return to Him and His Torah. In addition we should teach our children to go back to the hearts (or faith) of our father’s in the faith; meaning Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, but also King David. Our Fathers in the faith called on the name of YHVH (Genesis 12: 7 & 8[7]), kept Elohim’s commandments (Genesis 26: 5[8]), believed in the resurrection of the dead (Hebrews 11: 17 – 19[9]), the writings of Messiah (John 8: 56[10]) and the coming kingdom of Elohim (Hebrews 11: 10[11]). Most of us are familiar with Elohim’s appointed times, know and understand the meaning of the Feast Days of Elohim, but also came to realize that the prophets of Baal have substituted the Set-apart Days of Elohim with Baal’s days. Churchianity insists that the Day of the LORD (YHVH) is Sunday, without fully understanding that the Day of YHVH will be a terrible time of (YHVH)’s vengeance on those who do not follow the way of Elohim and His Feast Days specified in Torah. Yahshua our Messiah was not born on December the 25th and Christmas was a pagan festival adopted by Christianity who tried to make their religion more acceptable to the pagans around them, in an attempt to win them over, and to avoid persecution.

For those of us whom YHVH is calling to come out of the religions of this world and whose minds He is busy opening to His Scriptures at this time, He is saying through Amos in chapter 3: 6 – 8: ‘If a trumpet is blown in a city will not the people tremble? If a calamity occurs in a city has not YHVH done it? (7) Surely YHVH Elohim does nothing unless He reveals His secret counsel to His servants the prophets. (8) A lion has roared! Who will not fear? YHVH Elohim has spoken! Who can but prophesy?’ YHVH said clearly in His word, the Scriptures, that He would get His warning message to His people; He said through the prophet Hosea in Chapter 5: 9, ‘Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke; among the tribes of Israel I declare what is sure.’ Continuing in Hosea 7: 8 - 12, YHVH said: ‘Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; Ephraim has become a cake not turned. (9) Strangers devour his strength, yet he does not know it; gray hairs also are sprinkled on him, yet he does not know it. (10) Though the pride of Israel testifies against him, yet they have neither returned to YHVH their Elohim, nor have they sought Him, for all this. (11) So Ephraim has become like a silly dove, without sense; they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. (12) When they go, I will spread My net over them; I will bring them down like the birds of the sky. I will chastise them in accordance with the proclamation to their assembly.’ Ephraim is a nom de plume for the United States and the British Commonwealth of which South Africa was once part and in the mind of YHVH still is. YHVH has been warning our nations in His word through His prophets for thousands of years, but because we have lost our identity, our faith and even the language of our fathers in the faith, we are not even aware of the many prophecies in the Scriptures about what is about to befall us in these latter days during which we live.

YHVH warned the house of Israel in especially the prophecies of Ezekiel and if only we were aware of these facts and come to repentance, there are indescribable blessings awaiting those who eventually repent and return to YHVH and Brother Judah through Yahshua the true Messiah. Even though South Africans claim to know their G-d, they have no idea who YHVH is, since they do not ever study the so-called ‘Old Testament’, since they came to believe that their Savior has either abolished the need to keep Torah, or has ‘fulfilled’ it for them. As a result, they believe that they may do whatever they like, as long as they have a full abundant life and enjoy the time that they have on earth; and as long as they believe in J*e*s*u*s*. But they have no idea what it means to believe in the name of the Savior and that believe in Him means that we are supposed to do what He taught and did whilst He was on earth. Yes, our people go to church every Sunday, the day they believe to be the ‘Day of the LORD’, even though their forbears left Europe to get away from Catholic Europe, they are still very much part of the false religious system YHVH mentions in Ezekiel 22: 26, saying: “Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.” Most of them have also come to agree with the New Age Religionists that the G-d of Christianity, the G-d of the Moslems, in fact the G-d of any known religion on earth is all one and the same being. This is also the reason why they do not care about using any specific name for the Mighty One whom they worship.

Brethren it is time to turn to YHVH for help or we will be completely destroyed in our beloved country. However, YHVH is not only talking about the Israelites in South Africa, He is also talking about the remnant of Israel world-wide who is at this time turning back to serve Him shoulder to shoulder with the house of Judah. We read in more detail about this from Ezekiel 34: 13 – 16, in this way: “And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and bring them to their own land; and I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams, and in all the inhabited places of the land. (14) I will feed them in a good pasture, and their grazing ground will be on the mountain heights of Israel. There they will lie down in good grazing ground, and they will feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. (15) I will feed My flock and I will lead them to rest,” declares YHVH Elohim. (16) I will seek the lost, bring back the scattered, bind up the broken, and strengthen the sick; but the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them with judgment.” Things will only change throughout the world at that time, but especially in South Africa. So, despite the gloom and doom, if we remain Torah observant we will live forever in the Promised Land. Halleluyah!

[1] Psalm 104: 1 & 2: ‘Bless YHVH, O my soul! O YHVH my Elohim, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with splendor and majesty, covering Thyself with light as with a cloak, stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.’

[2] Jerobaom the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite, Solomon’s servant, became king over the house of Israel after King Solomon and soon after he became king of the house of Israel he changed the dates on which they kept the feast of Sukkot to the eighth month, instead of the seventh moth as it is kept in Judah, thus ensuring that the house of Israel did not return to King Rehoboam of Judah.

[3] Deuteronomy 4: 27 – 31: “And YHVH will scatter you among the peoples, and you shall be left few in number among the nations, where YHVH shall drive you. And there you will serve gods, the work of man’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell. But from there you will seek YHVH your Elohim, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. When you are in distress and all these things have come upon you, in the latter days, you will return to YHVH your Elohim and listen to His voice. For YHVH your Elohim is a compassionate Elohim; He will not fail you nor destroy you nor forget the covenant with your fathers which He swore to them.”

[4] Romans 11: 5, ‘In the same way then, there has also come to be at the present time a remnant according to Elohim’s gracious choice.’

[5] Gawd or Gad is the god of luck mentioned in Isaiah 65: 11, in this way: “But you who forsake YHVH, who forget My holy mountain (Elohim’s Government, represented by the coming Kingdom of Elohim, when Messiah returns to rule from Jerusalem), who set a table for Fortune (or Gawd) and who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny (Meni).”

[6] As per Colossians 2: 9 & 10, ‘For in Him all the fullness of Deity (Elohim) dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority.’

[7] Genesis 12: 7 & 8, ‘And YHVH appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to YHVH who appeared to him. Then he proceeded from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east, and there he built an altar to YHVH and called upon the name of YHVH.’

[8] Genesis 26: 5, “Because Abraham obeyed Me and kept My charge, My commandments, My statues and My laws.”

[9] Hebrews 11: 17 – 19, “By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac; and he who had received the promises was offering up his only begotten son; it was he to whom it was said, ‘IN ISAAC YOUR DESCENDANTS SHALL BE CALLED.’ He considered that Elohim is able to raise men even from the dead; from which he also received him back as a type.”

[10] John 8: 56, “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”

[11] Hebrews 11: 10, “for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is Elohim.” Even though these verses only talks about Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the main, it can be proven from the Psalms that King David held these same beliefs.
