Identifying the False Prophet

by JoyBySurprise

YaHuWaH  Tz’va’ot, Commander of the armies of Heaven.
Military Basic Training 101 – Obey the Commander or you can’t be in the army.

First Things First
In order to understand the information on this page the reader must understand YaHuWaH ‘s abhorrence of pagan institutions, which includes the worship of idols and the observance of days dedicated to pagan gods. He alone is rightfully worthy of all praise, honor, and devotion.

The nation of Israel was warned not to observe pagan practices repeatedly, first by YaHuWaH  Himself (at Mt. Sinai) and then by prophet after prophet after Israel entered the promised land. Time and again Israel suffered wars, captivities, and servitude at the hand of foreign nations because the nation fell into pagan idolatry and YaHuWaH ‘s instructions weren’t followed. He alone is rightfully worthy of all praise, honor, and devotion.

Please read the books of Judges and the Kings to appreciate how furious the Father becomes when His people associate themselves with pagan observances and traditions. He alone is rightfully worthy of all praise, honor, and devotion.

The Goal of a Prophet of YaHuWaH  
The goal of both Eliyahu (Elijah) and John the Baptist was to turn the hearts of the children (of Israel) to their heavenly Father.

This central goal of loving the Father was also confirmed by YAHUSHUA Himself in Matthew 22.
Matthew 22:37  YAHUSHUA said unto him, Thou shalt love YaHuWaH  thy Elohim with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38  This is the first and great commandment.

We are commanded above everything else to love YaHuWaH  with all our hearts.

Obedience is the evidence of love.

2 John 1:6  And this is love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.

The Goal of a False Prophet
The goal of a false prophet, described in Deuteronomy chapter 13 of YaHuWaH  ‘s military basic training manual the Torah is to turn the hearts of the people away from honoring (obeying) the instructions of YaHuWaH .

Deuteronomy 13:1  If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2  And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3  Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for YaHuWaH  your Elohim proveth you, to know whether ye love YaHuWaH  your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul.
4  Ye shall walk after YaHuWaH  your Elohim, and fear Him, and keep His commandments, and obey His voice, and ye shall serve Him, and cleave unto Him.
5  And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from YaHuWaH  your Elohim, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which YaHuWaH  thy Elohim commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.

True Prophets
The mark of a true prophet (YAHUSHUA): Mark 19:16  And, behold, one came and said unto Him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
17  And He said unto him, Why callest thou Me good? there is none good but one, that is, YaHuWaH : but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
The mark of a true prophet (YAHUSHUA): Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:19The mark of a true prophet (John): “For this is the love of YaHuWaH , that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.”  1 John 5:3
The mark of a true prophet (Abraham):
Genesis 26:3  Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;
4  And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the Earth be blessed;
5  Because that Abraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My Torah.

Obedience is the evidence of love.

False Prophets

The purpose of the false prophet is to turn the hearts of the children away from the Father.

The mark of a false prophet (Paul):”But that no one is justified by the Torah in the sight of YaHuWaH  is evident…”   Galatians 3:11
The mark of a false prophet (Paul):
“…for by the works of the Torah no flesh shall be justified.”   Galatians 2:16

The mark of a false prophet:The one who teaches that obedience to the commandments of YaHuWaH  is unimportant and optional.

The mark of a false prophet:The one who teaches that obedience to the commandments of YaHuWaH  brings a curse.

Paul
Paul was a Pharisee and persecuted the early Torah observant believers in YAHUSHUA Messiah. He was acting on the side of the oppressive establishment.

Note: It was the Pharisees who, because of their added instructions to the Torah, considered YAHUSHUA a false Messiah and pushed for His crucifixion. It was these added instructions of the Pharisees to YaHuWaH ‘s written Torah which blinded the spiritual eyes of the Pharisees to the reality of the perfect human Torah, the Messiah, who stood before them for examination. The Pharisees had been spiritually blinded by disobeying a specific instruction in the Torah Deuteronomy 4:2 ‘not to add to, or dimminish from’, the word of YaHuWaH .
Paul was unsuccessful in his zealous persecution of the Torah observant believers. As a result these early Jewish Messianic believers continued to increase in numbers.

Paul then said that he had had a ‘vision’ and called himself an Apostle. But he preached not for, but against, the social laws and against the social system of the Torah. He preached against material independence, against social security, against freedom from oppression and exploitation. Most people don’t realize that what Paul preached against are the freedoms and outstanding qualities inherent in the Torah that was given by YaHuWaH.

The Messiah said “if the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.” YAHUSHUA the Messiah is identified in John 1:1 as the Word, the living Torah of YaHuWaH .  The main thrust of Messiah’s teaching was to embed the Torah into the believer’s heart.

Paul’s teachings turn people away from the Torah, directly contradicting the instructions of both the Father and the Son. These two witnesses, the Father (Deut. 13:1-5) and the Son Matt. 19:17, John 5:43, Rev. 2:14, Rev. 2:20, Rev. 22:14), declare Paul to be a false prophet.

Paul preached the political ideology of an oppressive establishment which exploited the populace unhindered. His teachings require believers in Messiah to obey oppressive ungodly governments who themselves want to be ‘god’ in place of YaHuWaH .

The fruit of Paul’s teachings: One government has removed bible reading and prayer from schools and replaced those virtues with instruction in homosexual perversion. The christians of this nation follow Paul’s teachings and humbly and silently submit to what appears to be, in this person’s opinion, an oppressive dictatorship. The death of this society will be the fruit of Paul’s teachings.

“By their fruits you shall know them”, YAHUSHUA Messiah.

The fact is that Paul has been elevated to god status in place of the real God in the hearts of most christians.  Repent!

Paul’s Teachings

6  And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

Paul’s letters to the churches which form the majority of christian doctrine today were written about 60 A.D.

The Rebuke of Paul by YAHUSHUA the Moshiach

In the book of the Revelation (written about 90 A.D.) the letters to the seven churches in Asia contain messages directly from YAHUSHUA the Moshiach rebuking Paul’s false teachings.

In 1 Corinthians 8:8 above Paul approves eating things sacrificed to idols. The Messiah directly rebukes Paul’s teaching here in Revelation 2:14.

Revelation 2:14  But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

————————————————————————-

Here, Paul’s false teaching in 1 Corinthians 8:8 is being propagated by a woman and is again rebuked by YAHUSHUA Messiah.

Revelation 2:19  I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
20  Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
21  And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

————————————————————————-

Paul and Barnabus declared themselves apostles and subtly belittled Peter and the other apostles who were the chosen eye witnesses of Messiah.

Revelation 2:1   Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
2  I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

The above rebukes were delivered by YAHUSHUA Moshiaych Himself in approximately 90 A.D., about 30 years after Paul’s epistles to the churches were written and began to have their effect on the various congregations. The love of many for YaHuWaH was growing cold because of Paul’s teachings. The work of a false prophet is to turn the hearts of the people away from following YaHuWaH .

Christianity today uses Paul’s letters to justify ignoring YaHuWaH ‘s instructions (Torah).

The Torah is the perfect instruction book for eternal life and living given from the loving Creator to mankind.

YAHUSHUA said in John 14:6 ” I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me.”

John 14:6 paraphrased “ I am the Torah, no man comes to the Father but by Me”.

YAHUSHUA the Messiah is the Living Word. YAHUSHUA haMoshiaych is the Living Torah.

John 14:15 ” If ye love Me, keep My commandments (Torah).”

Paul’s teachings have millions of people today disregarding the Messiah Himself, the Torah, the Way to the Tree of Life.

Matthew 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16  Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18  A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

What is the fruit of Paul’s teachings? Today there are about 1.9 billion christians who don’t care about the Father’s instructions. They are isolated from the Father by regarding His instructions as antiquated and irrelevant today. This isolation is known as spiritual death. It’s the same death Adam suffered the day he left the Garden. Death is the eventual fruit of Paul’s teachings on justification by faith. Faith without works is dead – James chapter 2.

Matthew 7:21  Not every one that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven.
22  Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy Name? and in thy Name have cast out devils? and in thy Name done many wonderful works?
23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity. (iniquity – Strong’s 458: anomia – the condition of being without law (Torah))

The statement in Matthew 7:23 above, “I never knew you“, is the Jewish idiom for intimate intercourse between a man and a woman. YAHUSHUA haMoshiaych is identified in John 1:1 as the Word, the Living Torah. Today 1.9 billion christians have little or no intercourse with the Torah because of Paul’s teachings.

The Messiah indicates in Matthew 7:21 -23 above that many people will have done good works in HIS NAME but He doesn’t have an intimate relationship with them. These people will have no knowledge of HIS true nature. These are they who, for example, have ham for dinner on Easter Sunday. Unfortunately the Living Torah has to say “depart from Me” to these christians because they aren’t like He is. They are foreign to His set-apart (holy) nature and He won’t allow Himself to be defiled by their close association with Him. Paul’s teachings have helped to blind christians to this fact and have robbed these christians of eternal reward.

Messianic teachers who try to defend Paul’s teachings have to contort and untangle Paul’s writings in order to make his teachings appear to be acceptable. I attended a Messianic Fellowship several times but left when I learned members who were formerly Jews were using Paul’s teachings to justify shopping on Shabbat.

Revelation 22:13  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14  Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15  For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
16  I YAHUSHUA have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

The Witnesses
YaHuWaH  – Even if a prophet gives you signs that come to pass, if he directs your obedience (love) away from Me that prophet is a false prophet. Kill him. Deuteronomy 13:1 – 5

YaHuWaH  – Abraham obeyed My voice, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws, therefore I will bless him and perform unto him My oaths. Genesis 26:3 – 5

YAHUSHUA – The keeping of the commandments of the Father is necessary for one to enter into life.

Matthew 19:16  And, behold, one came and said unto Him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
17  And He said unto him, Why callest thou Me good? there is none good but One, that is, YaHuWaH  : but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

(in Hebrew the word “keep” means to “cherish, guard, and protect”)

John –  For this is the love of YaHuWaH , that we keep His commandments… 1 John 5:3  

Summary
The commander of today’s ‘christian church’ is the false apostle Paul who teaches there is no need to obey the Father’s commandments.  
The teachings of Paul and the teachings of YAHUSHUA the Messiah clash head on.
YAHUSHUA told us that heaven and Earth would pass away before anything would be changed concerning the application of the Father’s commandments to our lives.
Paul’s ‘gospel’ is not the gospel of YAHUSHUA haMoshiaych.
Paul is identified by the Father and His Son as a false prophet.

Paul has very nearly accomplished his original goal, the destruction of true christianity.  A Pharisee of the Pharisees indeed.

Please search these things out for yourself.

The Final Warning from YAHUSHUA
Revelation 22:12  And, behold, I come quickly; and My reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13  I am Alpha and Omega (Aleph and Tav), the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14  Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
