Vatican researcher claims writing on Shroud of Turin is proof of artifact's authenticity

**EDITOR: As much as I would love to believe this is true – there is NO WAY that the words Jesus Nazarene appears on it.. if there WERE text they would say Yahushua Nazarene – as the pagan name Jesus is a transliteration and not an actual translation of Yahushua or even Yahshua.See my post “Is Jesus a pagan name?” for a better explanation! If anything this is to fully prepare the way for the fake Jesus – aka Sananda who is one of Maitreyas “Generals” or masters of wisdom and IS NOT – I repeat NOT- the messiah , Son of the Living God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob who’s name is YHWH!”

Shroud of Turin

– A Vatican researcher claims she has found a nearly invisible text on the Shroud of Turin and says the discovery proves the authenticity of the artifact revered as Jesus’ burial cloth. The claim made in a new book by historian Barbara Frale drew immediate skepticism from some scientists, who maintain the shroud is a medieval forgery. Frale, a researcher at the Vatican archives, says the faint writing emerged through computer analysis of photos of the shroud, which is not normally accessible for study. Frale says the jumble of Greek, Latin and Aramaic includes the words “Jesus Nazarene” and mentions he was sentenced to death. She believes the text was written on a document by a clerk to identify the body and the ink then seeped into the cloth.

Two Books of LIFE!!

** EDITOR: A good friend of mine recommended an excellent website that contained a mind blowing book on the truths in Gods Word. I am still presently reading it but wanted to share just a tiny portion of it in order to recommend others to read it!! What this man reveals makes absolute sense I admit as there have been many passages of scripture that I JUST DID NOT UNDERSTAND. Mr Nelson makes sense of those very scriptures.. in a common sense and  logical way .**

By Scott Nelson

Have you ever read Yahshua’s words and noticed that at one moment he appeared to imply eternal life is relatively easy to attain, and then in another place he made it sound virtually impossible?  I have, and it kept my emotions on a virtual roller coaster ride for a long time.  The reason for this apparent difference is because we haven’t been told that there are two distinct levels of eternal life that will divide all those who have been saved from the lake of fire. There is a general large group, and a smaller more specific group.  It is the general group that is relatively easy to be part of, but the smaller one is the difficult one to enter. The following is my argument in support of this picture.  

In the last two chapters of Revelation, there is a picture prophecy of the new heavens and the new earth.  I had been puzzled for some time by a couple of things in this passage that didn’t seem to make sense, but instead of trying to reconcile them, I did as most Christians do. I brushed over them and simply ignored the problem. I had read these chapters many times before the truth finally jumped out at me. 

First, the scene must be set for these last two chapters of Revelation (21 and 22) by reading the last 5 verses of chapter 20.

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.     Revelation 20:11-15  

This picture is typically all most Christians know of a judgment day. It is an all-or-nothing, one or the other of only two possibilities picture. It is important to understand that this takes place after the 1000 year Messianic of Yahshua on earth (Revelation 20:4-6), and it is important to note that the first heaven and earth have passed away when all the dead that had been in them are judged. Notice also that Hell is not the same as the lake of fire. There is an obvious difference in geographical location. In the end, Hell itself is thrown into the lake of fire. 

Now, after this, John begins to describe the “new heavens” and the “new earth“.  When you read it, notice that there are three distinct places mentioned; the new heaven, and the new earth, and on the new earth is a city… the New Jerusalem.  Christian theologians have wrongly portrayed this entire area of the new heavens and new earth as “heaven”  assuming it’s the place of God’s throne and eternal bliss. The error is in the fact that whenever the word “heaven” is used in conjunction with “earth” in this manner, it always refers to the expanse, or sky above the earth, and not what we would typically picture as God’s dwelling place. This is important to remember. It will be seen that our classic picture of God’s dwelling place and the location of eternal bliss is only in the city the New Jerusalem. As you read the following, notice that New Jerusalem descends from the sky… “heaven”. Also notice how it stands out as the centerpiece and main subject of the passage. 

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.  Revelation 21:1,2

Then John records what is said about the city.

And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”   Revelation 21:3-5 

This passage describes the condition of things inside the new city and not necessarily everywhere outside it on the new earth.  This fact will be established in a moment. Now John records these words.

And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”  Revelation 21:6-8  

Take special notice of the list of evildoers here.  There are eight described, starting with the “cowardly” and “unbelieving”. These are the ones whose names are not in the “Book of Life” and therefore end up in the lake of fire.  We will come back to this list in a moment.  Up to this point, John has been given a broad overview of events to come. Now he is taken back and shown more detail of the New Jerusalem, and this time, the city is called the “Lamb’s Wife”!

…”Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain , and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. And her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.  Revelation 21:9b-11

Again, the subject and centerpiece remains the New Jerusalem. John continues in the next 10 verses to describe the city in greater detail. He describes the pearly gates, the foundation stones, the streets of gold, and the size of the city. According to some estimates, John was looking at a city as large as 1,380 miles square! He continues, and once again, it is the city that is being described.    

But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. And the city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it, and the Lamb is its light.  Revelation 21:22,23 

Now, the next verse is very important to remember. I will reference it again in a moment.

And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its (the city’s) light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it.   Revelation 21:24

Let’s summarize the picture so far.  There is a new heavens and a new earth on which live all those who are saved and have eternal life. They have eternal life because they drink freely of the water of life. These are those whose names were written in the Book of life.  There is also a new city, the New Jerusalem, which is the crowning glory of all that has been created anew. There is no more pain or suffering of any kind in the city. The city itself gives light to the new earth, and this light is the glory of the presence of God and the Lamb.  Now in the last verse of this chapter there is one of those statements that had me confused for some time. It is important to hear all that is being said here. 

But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.  Revelation 21:27

“It”, is again, unquestionably in reference to the New Jerusalem and not the new earth in general. The fact that lies, abominations, and things that defile are not permitted to enter the city suggests that these things exist outside it. If this deduction appears tenuous, please read on.

There is another important observation to be made here. There is mention of a Lamb’s Book of Life. This Lamb’s Book of Life is not the same book as the Book of Life mentioned earlier! This is where it starts getting really good. Notice that the new city itself is called “the Lamb’s wife”.  Would it not make perfect sense that the only ones allowed to enter what is referred to as the “Lamb’s wife” are those whose names are written in the “Lamb’s Book of Life”?  Yes, there are indeed two books of life!  All the names that are written in the smaller “Lamb’s Book of Life” would no doubt be listed in the general “Book of Life”, but not all names in the general Book of Life are in the smaller Lamb’s Book of Life. At one time, I thought as most Christians do, that there was only one Book of Life and everyone whose name was written in it got to live in the New Jerusalem… but not anymore. There are two more passages in the 22nd chapter of Revelation that cannot be reconciled with what we’ve read so far unless there are in fact two books of life.

And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.      Revelation 22:1-4  

There are several things in this passage that need to be pointed out. One of particular interest I have in emboldened print. This entire passage is again concerning what is inside the city. The word “it” couldn’t possibly be in reference to anything other than the city. But here we have in the middle of this passage a reference to “leaves” for “the healing of the nations”! Let’s look at the subject of the leaves first. We just read in the first sentence about the tree of life yielding fruit, and not just one variety, but twelve! My question is: With all this fruit available, who would want leaves? Then secondly comes the picture of “healing”. Now if our typical picture of heaven were correct, where all trouble ceases to exist… no pain or sorrow and so on, who would need healing? I would figure all healing had been accomplished! And thirdly, who are these “nations” who desire the leaves for their healing? The answer is that  these are “the nations of those who are saved” and “walk in the light” of the city outside it. Remember the verse quoted above? Here it is again. 

And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its (the city’s) light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it.   Revelation 21:24

These are the ones who have eternal life and are “saved”, but are outside the city and have no access to the city or the fruit which is inside the city. If all this still sounds like a stretch, there is one more passage to consider.

Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.  Revelation 22:14,15

Could it possibly have been stated more clearly? Not everyone on the new earth has the right to enter the city, known as the “Lamb’s wife”.  Read it again if necessary.  As mentioned before, it is obviously only those who have their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life who will have access to the city.  In this passage, we also find out how one gets their name written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.  It says, “Blessed are those who do his commandments.”   These are the ones who will have the right to enter the city where the fruit of the tree of life is.  Then it says, “But outside…”  Question: Outside what?  Answer: The city!  The city is the obvious subject of the passage. This is not “outside” the new heavens and new earth. Those who have no eternal life at all are not “outside” something. They are incarcerated in the lake of fire. But outside the city are what are described as “dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.” Clearly, outside the city is a different matter and conditions are not as good as they are inside. 

Remember the list of eight crimes that those who were sent to the lake of fire were guilty of in Revelation 21:8?  Notice the similar list here in Revelation 22:15 has shrunk to six. Except for the two missing categories this second list is basically identical. The first list begins with the two that are missing in the second… “the cowardly and unbelieving”.  By the absence of these two in the second list we can conclude that the difference between them and the first group that was thrown in the lake of fire, is that even though they were guilty of some of the same serious sins, they still took courage and believed. Those from the first list who were throw in the lake of fire, should be seen as, “the cowardly-and-unbelieving abominable, the cowardly-and-unbelieving murderer, the cowardly-and-unbelieving sexually immoral…” and so on. Now the “believing” that the courageous ones of this second list did, is not the “faith alone” preached by many protestant denominations.  The Greek word John used and is translated “believe”, carries the same picture that James portrays in his epistle. It is a pro-active faith that demonstrates itself through “works”.  It is not mere mental ascent. One cannot separate what one believes from what one does. These saved individuals outside the city demonstrated some faith and courage by doing some good works… like feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, visiting the sick and imprisoned, and so on. But because they never walked in all God’s commandments, they were not permitted access to the city.  They didn’t end up in the lake of fire either!  These outside the city then are those who would need the leaves of the tree of life for healing, but they have no access to the fruit.

The Apostle Paul : Founder of "Christianity"

**EDITOR: I wrote in the previous Paul post this very same thing. Please people look at the facts AND study the Word of God! This was a hard truth to learn about 9 months ago when Father YHWH first showed me this. It boggled the mind.. and I was very angry at first ( a common reaction) until I started really looking at the facts… then I was blown away at the deception of Satan. Since then I have learned much more and fully understand that todays Christianity is really pagan Mithraism…and NOTHING like Yahushua , his disciples and the first “church”. His was the purest form of Judaism and the Law was NOT done away with by Him but FULFILLED. Before some get angry and want to punch the screen.. plz pray and ask Father God if this is true. Ask HIM to SHOW YOU THE TRUTH IN ALL THINGS. Our eternity depends on understanding YHWH’s truths and also where the enemy is deceiing us!! What better way to take people to hell – not killing off the church ( satan had already done that with the disciples and the early believers) but to infilterate and get “believers” into total disobedience and idolatry with a law-less gospel!**

The Apostle Paul Founder of Christianity

Jesus was not the founder of Christianity as we know it today. Most of the New Testament doesn’t even concern the historical Jesus while the main influence is the Apostle Paul and a Greek convert named John.

Paul never met Jesus in the flesh, he only claimed some strange vision and proceeded to paganize the teachings of Jesus (who preached an enlightened form of Judaism), until he created Pauline Christianity. Because there are no known writings from Jesus, the actual Apostles, or anyone that actually knew Him in the flesh (other then perhaps James), most of what He taught is lost forever.

The beginning of Christianity stands two figures: Jesus and Paul. Jesus is regarded by Christians as the founder of their religion, in that the events of his life comprise the foundation story of Christianity; but Paul is regarded as the great interpreter of Jesus’ mission, who explained, in a way that Jesus himself never did, how Jesus’ life and death fitted into a cosmic scheme of salvation, stretching from the creation of Adam to the end of time. The doctrines of Christianity come mostly from the teaching or influence of Paul, a Pharisee(?) who rejected his Pharisaic Judaism and converted to Christ. Paul would later be placed over his Jewish-Christian rivals by a Gnostic heretic named Marcion. See Marcion.

What is shown below is taken word for word from The Sierra Reference Encyclopedia.

PAUL, ST.

PAUL, ST. (died c. A.D. 68), founder of Pauline Christianity. His name was originally Saul. He later claimed that he was a Jew of the tribe of Benjamin, from a long-established Pharisee family in Tarsus. According to Acts (though not according to Paul himself) he studied in Jerusalem under Gamaliel, the leader of the Pharisees and grandson of Hillel. This account of Paul’s youth, however, is subject to doubt, since the tribe of Benjamin had long ceased to exist, and Pharisee families are otherwise unknown in Tarsus. According to Paul’s opponents, the Ebionites, he came from a family of recent converts to Judaism. He learnt the trade of tent-making (or perhaps leather-working), by which he made his living.

While still a youth in Jerusalem, Saul became part of the opposition to the newly formed Jerusalem Church (the disciples of Jesus, who, believing that Jesus had been resurrected, continued to hope for his return to complete his messianic mission). Saul was present at the death of Stephen. Soon after, Saul was an active persecutor of the Jerusalem Church, entering its synagogues and arresting its members. Acts represents this as due to Saul’s zeal as a Pharisee, but this is doubtful, as the Pharisees, under Gamaliel, were friendly to the Jerusalem Church (see Acts 5).

Moreover, Saul was acting in concert with the high priest (Acts 9:2), who was a Sadducee opponent of the Pharisees. It seems likely that Saul was at this period an employee of the Roman-appointed high priest, playing a police role in suppressing movements regarded as a threat to the Roman occupation. Since Jesus had been crucified on a charge of sedition, his followers were under the same cloud.

The high priest then entrusted Saul with an important mission, which was to travel to Damascus to arrest prominent members of the Jerusalem Church. This must have been a clandestine kidnapping operation, since Damascus was not under Roman rule at the time but was in fact a place of refuge for the persecuted Nazarenes. On the way to Damascus, Paul experienced a vision of Jesus that converted him from persecutor to believer. Paul joined the Christians of Damascus, but soon he had to flee Damascus to escape the officers of King Aretas (II Corinthians 11:32-33), though a later, less authentic, account in Acts 9:22-25 changes his persecutors to “the Jews.”

After his vision, according to Paul’s own account (Galatians 1:17), he went into the desert of Arabia for a period, seeking no instruction. According to Acts, however, he sought instruction first from Ananias of Damascus and then from the apostles in Jerusalem. These contradictory accounts reflect a change in Paul’s status: in his own view, he had received a revelation that put him far higher than the apostles, while in later Church opinion he had experienced a conversion that was only the beginning of his development as a Christian.

Paul’s self-assessment is closer to the historical truth, which is that he was the founder of Christianity. Neither Jesus himself nor his disciples had any intention of founding a new religion. The need for a semblance of continuity between Christianity and Judaism, and between Gentile and Jewish Christianity, led to a playing-down of Paul’s creative role. The split that took place between Paul and the Jerusalem Church is minimized in the Paulinist book of Acts, which contrasts with Paul’s earlier and more authentic account in Galatians 2.

Paul’s originality lies in his conception of the death of Jesus as saving mankind from sin. Instead of seeing Jesus as a messiah of the Jewish type human saviour from political bondage he saw him as a salvation-deity whose atoning death by violence was necessary to release his devotees for immortal life. This view of Jesus’ death seems to have come to Paul in his Damascus vision. Its roots lie not in Judaism, but in mystery-religion, with which Paul was acquainted in Tarsus. The violent deaths of Osiris, Attis, Adonis, and Dionysus brought divinization to their initiates. Paul, as founder of the new Christian mystery, initiated the Eucharist, echoing the communion meal of the mystery religions. The awkward insertion of eucharistic material based on I Corinthians 11:23-26 into the Last Supper accounts in the Gospels cannot disguise this, especially as the evidence is that the Jerusalem Church did not practise the Eucharist.

Paul’s missionary campaign began c.44 in Antioch. He journeyed to Cyprus, where he converted Sergius Paulus, the governor of the island. It was probably at this point that he changed his name from Saul to Paul, in honor of his distinguished convert. After journeys in Asia Minor where he made many converts, Paul returned to Antioch. His second missionary tour (51-53) took him as far as Corinth; and his third (54-58) led to a three-year stay in Ephesus. It was during these missionary periods that he wrote his Epistles.

Paul’s new religion had the advantage over other salvation-cults of being attached to the Hebrew Scriptures, which Paul now reinterpreted as forecasting the salvation-death of Jesus. This gave Pauline Christianity an awesome authority that proved attractive to Gentiles thirsting for salvation. Paul’s new doctrine, however, met with disapproval from the Jewish-Christians of the Jerusalem Church, who regarded the substitution of Jesus’ atoning death for the observance of the Torah as a lapse into paganism. Paul was summoned to Jerusalem by the leaders James (Jesus’ brother), Peter, and John to explain his doctrine (c.50).

At the ensuing conference, agreement was reached that Paul’s Gentile converts did not need to observe the Torah. This was not a revolutionary decision, since Judaism had never insisted on full conversion to Judaism for Gentiles. But Paul on this occasion concealed his belief that the Torah was no longer valid for Jews either. He was thus confirmed in the role of “apostle to the Gentiles,” with full permission to enroll Gentiles in the messianic movement without requiring full conversion to Judaism.

It was when Peter visited him in Antioch and became aware of the full extent of Paul’s views that a serious rift began between Pauline and Jewish Christianity. At a second conference in Jerusalem (c.55), Paul was accused by James of teaching Jews “to turn their backs on Moses” (Acts 21:21). Again, however, Paul evaded the charge by concealing his views, and he agreed to undergo a test of his own observance of the Torah. His deception, however, was detected by a group of “Asian Jews” (probably Jewish Christians) who were aware of his real teaching. A stormy protest ensued in which Paul feared for his life and was rescued by the Roman police, to whom he declared for his protection that he was a Roman citizen. This surprising announcement was the end of Paul’s association with the Jerusalem Church, to whom the Romans were the chief enemy.

The Roman commandant, Claudius Lysias, decided to bring Paul before the Sanhedrin in order to discover the cause of the disturbance. With great presence of mind, Paul appealed to the Pharisee majority to acquit him, claiming to be a Pharisee like James. Paul was rescued by the Pharisees from the high priest, like Peter before him. However, the high priest, resenting this escape, appointed a body of men to assassinate Paul. Learning of the plot, Paul again placed himself under the protection of the Romans, who transported him by armed guard from Jerusalem to Caesarea. The High Priest Ananias was implacable, no doubt because of Paul’s defection from his police task in Damascus, and laid a charge of anti-Roman activity against him. Paul appealed for a trial in Rome before Caesar, his right as a Roman citizen. The assertion of Acts that the Jewish “elders” were also implicated in the charges against Paul is unhistorical, since these same elders had just acquitted him in his Sanhedrin trial. Paul was sent to Rome, and here our information ends. Legends speak of his eventual martyrdom in Rome.

Paul’s authentic voice is found in his Epistles. Here he appears as an eloquent writer, skilled in asserting his authority over his converts as their inspired teacher. The view often asserted, however, that Paul writes in the style of a rabbi is incorrect. His occasional attempts to argue in rabbinical style (e.g., Romans 7:1-6) reveal his lack of knowledge of rabbinic logic. Paul’s letters belong to Greek literature and have affinity to Stoic and Cynic literature. His knowledge of the Scriptures is confined to their Greek translation, the Septuagint. Paul was a religious genius, who invested Greek mystery-religion with the historical sweep and authority of the Jewish Bible.

The Trinity!!??

** Editor: In my 10 years in “christianity” I could never fully grasp the trinity as hard as I tried. I would try to explain it to people and came up with theological sounding explainations! Something never sat right with me… as did some of Pauls writings. About 9 months ago when YHWH led me to discover how false Paul really was .. at first I was dumbstruck but then it clicked! An AHA! moment. Never in a million years would I have ever thought I would be at the place i am now in my beliefs – but I am at peace. Yah is leading many many people away from Christianity / Pauline-ism and back to Himself. There may be some who read this and are outraged – but before you storm off -will you please consider what i am saying and what this man Scott is saying and also what many many others are saying. Ask Father for the truth in all things. I highly recommend Scott Nelsons book  which is free to read and a work in progress.. you can read it at the below website. I pray all my brethren would come to a knowledge of the truth in YHWH. The below article is a good argument on the subject. I guess whoever can take it or leave it. He ( Scott) is also open to suggestions/comments etc. I will post more info about the deception of Paul/Saul in another post**

Article by Scott Nelson @ www.judaismschristianity.com

At one time I called myself a Christian, and I believed in the concept of the trinity for over thirty years. I taught the doctrine to others and would have called anyone who didn’t believe in the trinity a blasphemous heretic. But after much study, I have found no legitimate support in Scripture for the traditional Christian concept. Consequently I have changed my mind (repented) and no longer endorse the doctrine. I continue to believe in the existence of the Father, and the Son Yahshua the Messiah, and the Holy Spirit, but not the three eternal co-equal individuals in one as Christian doctrine demands. In short, I now believe that the Holy Spirit has no individual personality apart from the Father because He is the Father… and extension of Himself. The labels of Father, and Holy Spirit are of one and the same person. Judaism has understood this correctly for thousands of years.  Yahshua on the other is the most misunderstood being in both Christian and Jewish worlds. Yahshua is not the Father, nor is he equal to Him, nor has he existed forever, though I do believe he existed before this creation. For more on what I believe, see my statement of faith.

 THE EVIDENCE !?

 My change of mind is based far more on the massive Scriptural evidence that contradicts the idea of a trinity than it is on the lack of support for it. But the shear lack of evidence speaks volumes in itself. Dealing with this lack of evidence is the subject of this article. There are only two passages in the New Testament that appear to support the concept of the trinity. One is found in 1John 5:7,8. It reads:

 For there are three who bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth; the Spirit, the water, and the blood: and these three agree as one. 

 Aside from the fact that I would be hard pressed to call any of 1John “infallible” any longer, the fact is that none of the early manuscripts of 1John contain the words I have highlighted in red. Only a few of the later manuscripts contain these words. Many bibles make mention of this fact in the margin. No scholars continue to use this passage as proof of the trinity anymore. It was no doubt added later because of doctrine arising from the only other passage in the bible that appears to call for a picture of a triune God.   

 According to our modern versions of Matthew 28:18-20a, Yahshua supposedly commanded his disciples to baptize the nations in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. It reads:

 Then Yahshua came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you…”

 This is also the only place in the bible where there is any mention of “Father, Son, and Holy Spirit” together in this fashion. It is also the only other passage in the bible which appears to support the Christian concept of a trinity. It should first be noted that the word “name” is in the singular and not the plural form. And secondly, the names Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, are not names at all, but titles. We might be able to use names for the Father and Son… they would be YHWH and Yahshua respectively, but what would be the name of the Holy Spirit? It should be evident to even the casual reader that there is probably something wrong with this passage. I thoroughly believe that this passage has been either mistranslated or intentionally altered from Yahshua’s original words in light of the following passage from Exodus 3:15 which I do hold as infallible. 

Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: “YHWH God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. *THIS is MY NAME FOREVER, and THIS is My memorial to ALL GENERATIONS.’

God said His name (singular) would forever be tied to three persons!! They are Abraham, his son Isaac, and Jacob… who is also known as Israel. One must be compelled to ask the question: Why would Yahshua suddenly come up with a new “name” for God when God told Moses this one would last “forever, to all generations“? In light of this, there is little doubt in my mind that Yahshua’s actual words were something more like “…baptizing them in the name of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

I have a couple of theories as to what happened. The one that makes the most sense to me is that there could very well have been at the time Yahshua spoke these words an abbreviated/shorthand Hebrew or Aramaic version of this three-person name as found in Exodus 3:15. Consider the following. The name Abraham in Hebrew means “Father of nations”. The first two letters of his name are short for Abba, which is “Father” in Hebrew. Isaac is Abraham’s son. And Jacob, who is also “Israel”, is also known as a “holy nation” (Exodus 19:6). Question: What if the person who was writing down Yahshua’s word’s quickly scribbled down what at that time was a familiar colloquialism on the order of….Ab-son-holy referring to the God of Abraham, his son Isaac and the holy nation of Israel? Then imagine someone who didn’t understand the colloquialism reading it and attempting to translate it. From such a colloquialism a translator could very easily come up with what we have today… “Father, Son, and Holy……. Spirit”! Research needs to be done on ancient Hebrew and Aramaic writings to see if there can be found an abbreviated version of God’s name as found in Exodus 3:15 which would lead a translator to the error we have today. One might begin with a search of the Dead Sea scrolls.

The other possibility is that the original transcript of Yahshua’s words was complete and correct, but Pauline Christianity later intentionally modified this passage to conform to trinitarian doctrine. I personally tend to favor the former theory. Either way, I have no doubt that this is the true origin of the concept of the trinity. Three separate individuals found in one name. (Three-in-one)

It is also interesting to note that in this same passage Yahshua goes on to say, “teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” This must of necessity include his command to observe Moses. (Matthew 23:2,3) Yahshua’s commission  was a command to bring Gentiles by baptism into the family of Israel… as adopted members of the family who’s father’s were Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!! The command was to convert Gentiles to Judaism, which by the way, is exactly what Paul accused Peter of doing! (Gal. 2:14) Peter was there when Yahshua spoke these words. Paul was not!
