Organized Religions

Thanks for video. I can relate. I was where you are at just a year ago, so just keep studying to gain more knowledge, for without it Yahowah says His people are destroyed. Here is where I have am on this journey now. I have studied over a thousand hours on this subject reading and watching videos on this subject, and slowly Yahawah has revealed more and more to me. Trust Him to reveal more and more as you study. Here is what He has shown me, and if you continue on, this is what He will show you too. I was going into Walmart the other day when I saw a poster for a new movie called “Minions.” I already had somewhat of an idea of what that term meant, but it kind of stuck in my mind, so when I got home I looked up it’s meaning to understand it better. I found that a minion is nothing more than a yes-man, a follower or underling of a powerful person, especially a servile or unimportant one. A lackey, hireling, stooge, toady, a nameless faceless servant. And that a minions only importance is from the person who orders him around. Suddenly I realized that Satan uses minions to accomplish his purpose. For he must have been quite jealous when he was ignored and hated by those who followed Jaosha. (Jesus’ name in Hebrew)
So Satan came up with a plan to destroy the souls of those whom Yahowah (God’s name in Hebrew) had called to be part of His family. He invented a new religion so deceptive that it would fool over 99.9 % of the people who sincerely wanted to do the will of Yahowah. He needed someone to be his spokesman for this new religion, and since Jaosha had His apostles, he figured he needed at least one apostle of his own. He saw that Saul of Tarsus was already a persecuter of Yahoweh’s people, breaking into homes and binding men and women to be thrown into prison, and that he was filled with such hatred that he consented to the stoning of Stephen. So Satan must have thought,…. I can use a man like this!
Jaosha told His disciples, “…..I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. So Satan appeared to Saul as a blinding light on the road to Damascus, and called him to be his apostle. Then Saul was commisioned by Satan to auther the magna carta of his new religion: a ‘new covenant’ that would do away with God’s Covenant; the very Covenant God said was to be everlasting and to a thousand generations. [Gen. 17:7, Deut. 7:9, Psalm 105: 8] Paul proposed the idea that Yahowah had come up with a better plan of a “new and improved covenant,” and since any good pitchman knows that labeleing something ‘new and improved’ will appeal to the masses, Paul tried to impress them by teaching them that his new covenant was superior to Yahowah’s Everlasting Covenant. I can see him using the catch phrase, ” Change you can believe in!” Wait, wasn’t that Obama’s campaign slogan in ’08? …yes,….. yes it was,…..well, ….moving on,…… Faith is belief in what you don’t understand. Knowledge is understanding what you believe, thereby making faith an impoverished substitute for knowing. Paul taught that knowledge ‘puffeth up’, thereby making ignorance a virtue. Then Paul taught that faith produces righteousness …..”the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness.” Romans 4:2-5, [ it’s kind of like Paul was saying, …..”just believe what I tell you, go to church every week, give your money, and don’t ask questions, because if you question anything that I say, it shows your lack of faith, which means you are UNRIGHTEOUS !!” ] But Yaosha seems to teach the opposite: “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, “Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink . . . And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal” Matthew 25:41-46. It seems here that Yaosha taught that our righteousness depends very much on our efforts (good works and keeping the commandments). Satan’s new religion was taking shape, but it was still missing one thing. He needed a whole bunch of yes men, lackeys, and hirlings; in short, he needed minions to give voice to his new religion. And he keeps calling new minions/preachers every day, and every day they keep bowing to him and saying, “Yes Sir”,… and thereby sell their souls to Satan,…. for a life of ease and gain. Shalom, Mac
P.S. Moral of story: If you listen to minions, you will become one!
