Paul or Jesus?

by Ronda Zeoli

In order to understand the lies and deceptions of Christianity, we
must start at the beginning of Christianity. It will come to a
surprise to many, I’m sure, that time and time again one can find
Paul being credited as to the start of Christianity. After all,
over half of the New Testament was written by Paul or his followers.

What is the problem with this? Paul was a self proclaimed Apostle,
never was he appointed by Yahshua like the REAL twelve were. Paul
NEVER even laid eyes on Yahshua.

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 Yahshua. 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 Yahshuas’ 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.

Paul was carefully positioned by Satan to lead the masses astray.
The Most High allowed it as a way to test HIS people. Satan’s plan
has worked out rather well for him throughout the years, thanks to
Paul. Notice how churchianity adores him and puts great focus in
his teachings. Although, it remains to be seen who has the last
laugh!

Again, what is the problem with this? Paul taught a different
gospel than that of Yahshua. Yahshua came to fulfill the laws of
the Torah, and therefore, the Most High. He came to lead the people
back to the Most High God.

Paul was basically the inventor of fast food religion, where it’s
okay to spend the week in sin as long as you ask for forgiveness at
the end of the week. Paul didn’t teach people how to have a one on
one relationship with the Most High. He didn’t teach people about
the Laws of the Torah and their importance, or the importance of
keeping the feasts. In fact, he taught against them instead.

Furthermore, Paul introduced pagan Mithraic beliefs and practices.
The facts on this topic are very revealing and important to be aware
of since it is quite possible that a fake “Jesus” could come back to
lead the masses straight to hell during tribulation.

Paul writes about the fake “Jesus”. Will you know the difference
between the real one and the fake?

“All great lies are interwoven with golden threads of truth”

Who was Paul?

Since Paul is so widely credited with starting Christianity, let’s
take a moment to examine Paul. Paul, also known as Saul from
Tarsus, the very center of Baal-worship.

Paul proclaimed himself to be an Apostle of the Gentiles, but was
he? Yahshua chose 12 disciples for 12 tribes. He never spoke of a
13th. He did, however, speak of another who would come in his own
name and be accepted over him.

Who has 13 books in the New Testament even though he never set eyes
on the son of the Most High God? Who is so widely accepted and
glorified all throughout Christianity? Most would rather quote Paul
than one of the real Apostles. While the REAL Apostles wrote about
the life of Yahshuah, Paul wrote of his own view point and personal
ideology.

Yahshua also warned us to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, of
which Paul was one. He warned against and condemned the Pharisees
repeatedly. Pharisee Paul NEVER preached against them.

Matthew 16:6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the
leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
Matthew 16:11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake [it]
not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the
Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
Mark 8:15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the
leaven of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod.

AND

John 5:43 I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if
another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

What person came in his own name (without witnesses) who received
more coverage in the Bible than Yahshua or his 12 personally and
publicly appointed apostles?

Paul’s gospel was altogether different than that of Yahshua’s.
Yahshua came to free people from political bondage. He came to
fulfill the laws of the Torah and of the Most High, which protected
the people. He tried to have the laws reinstated and applied
correctly.

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I came to destroy the law or the
prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfil. 5:18 For verily I
say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle
shall in no wise pass away from the law, till all things be
accomplished. 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these
least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in
the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, he
shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Paul, on the other hand, was in favor of oppression. 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.
Paul was against observance of laws ensuring freedom, independence
and equality.

Paul wanted us to believe that the New Covenant replaced the Old
Covenant. And it was Paul’s teachings that were accepted and placed
in dominance after 300 years of persecutions wiped out the early
church. The Torah, Feasts, and Commandments were replaced by the
laws of laziness and lawlessness.

Paul’s True Purpose – Why Yahweh Allows Paul

Paul was a tent-maker by trade. A tent-maker makes tents. Tents
are temporary shelters made of the hands of a man. They serve their
purpose but eventually, they wear out and besides, they’re only
temporary shelters. Temporary, means temporal, or from here; of the
earth.

A tent is fallible, foundationless and can’t protect you from the
severe storms that rock the “Babylonian Sea.” The sea of Babylon is
so enormous and all incompassing, that all the living creatures
within it, worship the sea beast.

Paul of Tarsus is a huge part of the sea beast. He’s one of the
horns that see into the “mysteries” and lead the world astray after
the wrong Elohim. They follow the lie called PAUL since the lie is
so close to the truth, that unless a soul is absolutely determined to
see YAHWEH’S TRUTH, that soul will never see the Kingdom of Heaven.

The tent-maker also makes a veil out of cobwebs to catch flies into
his net to devour. His net is like a black blanket over your heart
and mind so you can’t even tell you’re not even really living.

The house that Paul built, is that proverbial house of sand that
Yahshua warned against.

Matthew 7:26 And every one that heareth these words of mine, and
doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his
house upon the sand: 7:27 and the rain descended, and the floods
came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell:
and great was the fall thereof.

Paul’s house is a house of straw built on sand and when the winds of
truth begin to blow on it, it teeters and totters like a helpless
tent. Eventually, it gets torn apart and blown away. Lies can’t
stand up to the truth. Only truth rises.

Nothing happens except Yah has spoken it and therefore, we have to
look to what Yah said, in order to know why things happen like they
do and why people of power and influence get away with oppressing
those of lower social standing. No one can be deceived if their
hearts are pure for Yah. That’s the first truth we have to see and
accept. If we can’t see, it’s because our hearts are not right with
Yah. Unless a person sincerely seeks Him first, with the whole
being, then that same person is still an open target for the enemy
to attack through falsehoods.

Paul says:

Romans 15:2 Let every one of us please his neighbor for his good to
edification.

In Romans 14, we saw what Paul’s idea of “pleasing your neighbor”
is. Let’s look at some “OT” prophesies concerning this ‘trend.’

Psalms 12:2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbor: with
flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.

Psalms 28:3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of
iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbors, but mischief is in
their hearts.

Proverbs 16:29 A violent man enticeth his neighbor, and leadeth him
into the way that is not good.

Proverbs 18:17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but
his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.

Proverbs 29:5 A man that flattereth his neighbor spreadeth a net for
his feet.

Jeremiah 9:4 Take ye heed every one of his neighbor, and trust ye
not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and
every neighbour will walk with slanders.

Jeremiah 9:5 And they will deceive every one his neighbor, and will
not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and
weary themselves to commit iniquity.

Jeremiah 9:8 Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaketh
deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbors with his mouth, but
in heart he layeth his wait.

Jeremiah 23:27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by
their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their
fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

These are just some, of MANY, MANY prophetic warnings about those
who come speaking peace and LIES to their “neighbor’s” to further
their own, vile cause. We cannot ‘please our neighbors’ in this
world when we speak and LIVE the truth according to Yahweh. In
other words, we can’t be politically correct and right with Yahweh
at the same time.

Again, Yahshua said the following:

Matthew 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake:
but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate
the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and
despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

It’s fence sitters who refuse to take a second to actually trust
Yahweh, who end up being DEVOURED by the enemy of their souls. It’s
the lukewarm believer that Yahshua spews out of His mouth, because
they leave a rotten taste in it.

The TEST is about being steady in heart, through thick and thin- in
persecutions and in tribulations; steadfast in and for truth. It’s
about not wavering in our love and devotion to Yahshua, who came to
show us the way to to and of our Heavenly Father. It’s about
cleaving to the Good Shepherd and renouncing the “stranger.”

Whoever seeks the RIGHTEOUS PATH with the whole heart, mind and
soul, and in earnest love and devotion to their Creator, will find
shelter from this world in Yahshua. Simple.

That’s how it happens that the false branches get shaken off the
true vine, by false teachers and preachers and wolves in sheep’s
clothing like Saul/Paul of Tarsus.

Paul is there for a reason- YAH put Paul there and left him there
too, IN OUR BIBLES, all these centuries, because Paul serves YAH’S
purpose: separating the wheat from the chaff.

The tent-maker builds a counterfeit shelter; a shelter that’s
temporal, fallible and unable to withstand the power of the Word of
Truth. Watch it fall, because the fall of it is going to be so
great that there’s never been anything like it ever. When the house
that Paul built with a veil of lies, falls, few will escape. They
won’t know it’s falling because they are blinded to the truth.
They’ll be devoured in the place they thought was safe because they
didn’t know Yahweh nor seek HIS FACE nor HIS Shelter.

Paul is an apostate but the world accepts him because to the world,
he looks like some kind of hero. The world always did and always
will worship men of power and influence, but the truth is, unless we
worship the Father, in Spirit and in Truth, what are worshipping?
It’s by His Word that we’re cleansed of the lies of the enemy. The
truth exposes them and that’s why Paul speaks PAUL’S words, instead
of Yahshua’s Word. Paul speaks of himself, like all imposters do
and in doing so, he sways multitudes into the pit; his net that is
never satisfied.

Yahweh said, “Choose LIFE.”

By choosing Yahweh, through His Son Yahshua, we have chosen life.
What “god” do we choose if we choose “god” through Saul/Paul of
Tarsus?

We choose “The god of fortresses.” We choose a tent-maker instead of
the Creator of an eternal, unshakable, incorruptible, righteous and
upright Kingdom. We choose the god of forces- the god of influence,
wealth, power and prestige- the god of lies that seem so close to
the truth, that we believe them, because believing Yahweh, means
true repentance.

If we choose Paul, we choose the way of the wicked, which is
justification by faith only. That’s the way of Satan and of Paul of
Tarsus, who denies the TRUTH and the WAY called LIFE and instead,
takes us through the dark, back alley called deception.

That’s what a thief does after all. A thief sneaks in through a
crack in the wall and climbs up the building some other way, besides
the Door, which is YAHSHUA and HIS WORDS. When he enters in, he
uses persuasion, big words, enticing language and forked sentences
to draw us away from the simple truth, into his web of deception.

A thief only aims to rob, kill and destroy, but the Good Shepherd
came to give us abundant LIFE in the TRUTH. Through Yahshua, and by
His Words, and by following His footsteps, not the steps of any
other persuasive man, we’ll be led to the green pastures of Yahweh
to be restored to Him. The Word cleanses us and the Blood of the
Lamb remits us of sin. We need the truth as Yah meant it to be said, not
the deluded version full of leaven and serpent poison, that comes to
us via two thousand years- twenty centuries of Paulinated doctrine.

In the time of the harvest- at the end of the world, the reapers
will devour the prey and the saints will be taken into the
everlasting Kingdom of Yahweh, Most High, Eternal and Righteous,
through the True Vine. Whatever is part of the true vine, will not
be shaken off nor destroyed in the wrath to come. Instead, they
will rejoice in the power of Yah to Save us, through Yahshua, His
only begotten Son.

Paul was allowed to remain in our bibles because that’s how the
wheat and the tares are growing up side by side. By PAUL, we are
tested. Yah said He will refine His children, Israel, like gold in
the fiery furnace. Consider this world the fiery furnace and His
kingdom, the green pastures. To get there, we need to drop Paul
like a hot sulpher and cleave to the Only Good Shepherd there is:
Yahshua Ha Mashiach; our shelter from the wrath of Yahweh.

Sun God Day- Sunday worship

Why is it that Christianity holds worship services on Sunday when we
commanded to keep the Sabbath on the seventh day. The seventh day
is Saturday, just look at any calendar!

So, if we aren’t worshipping on the true Sabbath the it’s not the
Most High God that we are worshipping.

If we go back to the worship of Baal, during the days of Elijah, we
will realize or remember that Baal is the name of the sun god.

In fact, all of the chief deities of Babylon (Nebuchadenezzar,
Nebuzardan, Belshazzar, Belteshazzar, etc) were sun deities, or sun
gods. Their names originating from different of the sun- diety, or
variations thereof. (Bal/Baal, Merodach/Marduk, and Nebo/Nabu)
After Bel, or Baal, became established in Rome, Sun-day worship was
kept in honor of the sun-diety. In Latin, “dies solis”, or Sunday,
means “day of the sun” and was proclaimed to be holy. It was the
main pagan day of worship.

Sun worship in the Roman Empire had been part of the religious
worship system of pagan Rome. It was wide spread, but not the
official dominant religion.

The dominant religion in the Roman Empire was the eastern cult of
sun-worship, “Sol Invictus”, or Invincible Sun. This came from “Sol
Invictus Mithra” and “Sol Elagabal”.

Therefore, Sunday is, in fact, sun god worship and Sun-day is the
day when the sun is worshipped.

“Baal” originates from the ancient Hebrew language and
means “lord’. Therefore, Sun-day, or Baal’s day, is the lord’s
day. “Lord”, as in the lord Satan, god of this world, and who is
worshipped as god by all those that he has deceived.

The True Sabbath

In the Scriptures the seventh day of the week is called the Sabbath.
The word Sabbath is synonymous with rest, repose, restoration,
refreshment, calm, tranquility, freedom, peace, harmony, holiness
and sanctification. It is, therefore, a fitting sign of the
Creator’s character and aims.

The divine record of the creation is brief; but it leaves one in no
doubt that the Creator rested on, blessed and sanctified the seventh
day of the week at the creation of the world.

Genesis 2:1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the
host of them. 2:2 And on the seventh day God finished his work which
he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work
which he had made. 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed
it; because that in it he rested from all his work which God had
created and made.

Many people will be surprised to learn that the true Sabbath day is
not Sunday but Saturday. Sunday is the first day of the week.
Saturday is the seventh and in Scripture is called the Sabbath of
the LORD. In other words Saturday is the true LORD’S’s Day.

The Sabbath starts at sunset on Friday evening and ends 24 hours
later at sunset on Saturday evening.

Leviticus 23:32 “From evening unto evening shall you celebrate your
Sabbath.” The Sabbath commandment is part of the Ten Commandments,
which were written with the finger of God!

Exodus 24:12 And Jehovah said unto Moses, Come up to me into the
mount, and be there: and I will give thee the tables of stone, and
the law and the commandment, which I have written, that thou mayest
teach them.

Exodus 31:18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of
communing with him upon mount Sinai, the two tables of the
testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.

The 4th Commandment

Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 20:9 Six days
shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; 20:10 but the seventh day is
a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: ‘in it’ thou shalt not do any work,
thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-
servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
20:11 for in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and
all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Jehovah
blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

You may read the Bible from cover to cover and you will not find a
single verse which cancels or amends the Sabbath commandment. That
is a fact. You will, instead, find many texts which call for the
observance of Sabbath, the seventh day of the week, commonly called
Saturday.

Yahweh’s Sabbath Day

In view of the above facts, it is a mistake to refer to the Sabbath
as the Jewish Sabbath; or that it is only to be observed by Jews.
The Sabbath is Yahweh’s Sabbath; or, as the Scriptures put it: the
Sabbath of the LORD thy God! To be sure it is kept by Israel and the
Jews; but it is not for Israel alone, any more than the Ten
Commandments are for the Jews alone. According to the fourth
commandment, even ‘strangers’ (Gentiles) are expected to keep the
Sabbath day. If they obey this royal command, Gentiles will also be
greatly blessed. Notice the word ‘stranger’ in the following texts:

Isaiah 56:6 Also the foreigners that join themselves to Jehovah, to
minister unto him, and to love the name of Jehovah, to be his
servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and
holdeth fast my covenant

Yes, the Sabbath belongs to the LORD and, like all the other nine
commandments; He made it to be remembered and kept holy by all
nations. In obedience to this commandment the seventh day Sabbath
was kept by all the great and holy personalities mentioned in the
Bible:

By all the Old Testament Prophets of the LORD God of Israel.
By the early Christian Church long after the death and resurrection
of the Savior.

By Yahshua the Messiah
And by Jehovah (YAHWEH) Himself.

Neither is there any evidence in the New Testament to suggest that
the Savior or his Apostles changed the Ten Commandments and
transferred the sanctity of the Sabbath from the seventh to the
first day of the week. Instead, Yahshua kept his Father’s
commandments (John 15:10). If he hadn’t done so he would have been
classified as ‘a sinner.’ But we read that Yahshua kept the Sabbath
day as it was meant to be kept, much to the annoyance of the Scribes
and Pharisees who had burdened the day with many petty, man-made
restrictions. Commenting on the eternal nature of his Father’s law
Yahshua said these words:

Moreover Yahshua advised his followers, who were mostly Jews at that
time, to pray to Yahweh that He might allow them to keep the Sabbath
at the destruction of Jerusalem: which was to take place in AD70,
some 40 years after the resurrection.

But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter,
neither on the Sabbath day. (Matt.24:20)

Pause and consider this text and see how pointless it would have
been for the Savior to have given this advice to his predominantly
Jewish followers if the Sabbath commandment was going to be
abolished at Calvary. The truth is, Yahshua had absolutely no
intention whatsoever of doing away with or changing the Sabbath
commandment. He had an extremely high regard for his Father’s law;
which he was instrumental in giving to Israel in the first place.
(James 4:12) In short, the true Sabbath day is still the seventh day
of the week, the day commonly known as Saturday!

Christmas- Birthday of our Savior, or Just another Pagan Holiday?

Mark 7:5 The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, “Why don’t your
disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat
their bread with unwashed hands?”
7:6 He answered them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites,
as it is written,’This people honors me with their lips, but their
heart is far from me. 7:7 But in vain do they worship me, teaching
as doctrines the commandments of men.’
7:8 “For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to
the tradition of men-the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do
many other such things.” 7:9 He said to them, “Full well do you
reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.

Tradition

Sometimes tradition is acceptable and perhaps even pleasing in the
sight of Yahweh. Sometimes it is not acceptable and is even hated by
Him. The evil of traditions that transgress the commandment of
Yahweh was a key teaching of Yahshua the Messiah:

Matthew 15:1 Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem
came to Yahshua, saying, 2 “Why do Your disciples transgress the
tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they
eat bread.”

Nowhere in the pages of scripture do we find a command to keep the
celebration of Christmas. Nowhere in the pages of scripture do we
find an example of any disciple keeping Christmas. The only time
Christmas is even mentioned in the pages of scripture is to condemn
it (as we will see).

3 He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the
commandment of Elohim because of your tradition? 4 “For Elohim
commanded, saying, `Honor your father and your mother’; and, `He who
curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 5 “But you say,
`Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might
have received from me is a gift to Elohim” 6 And honour not his
father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the
commandment of Elohim of none effect by your tradition.

This was an example of how the scribes and Pharisees forsook the
commandment of Yahweh in favor of their tradition. As I will share,
Christmas is also transgressing the commandment of Yahweh in favor
of tradition. What does Yahushua think about this?

7 “Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: 8 `These
people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with [their]
lips, But their heart is far from Me. 9 And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching [as] doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”

Christmas is honoring with the lips but it is one of many vain
doctrines and commandments of men. Again, there is not a single
scripture in the bible that tells us that we are to celebrate the
birth nor the resurrection of Yahushua the Messiah. Let alone in a
pagan way!

Many Christians speak against the Catholic traditions of Lent, Ash
Wednesday, etc. but fail to recognize that the same types of pagan
elements exist in the celebration of Christmas and Easter! But how
did these festivals get their start?

Origin of Christmas

The following is a quote from the 2000 Encyclopædia Britannica,
Volume 11 ; page 390.

“During the later periods of Roman history, sun worship gained in
importance and ultimately led to what has been called a ‘solar
monotheism.’ Nearly all the gods of the period were possessed of
Solar qualities, and both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of
solar deities. The feast of Sol and Victus (open unconquered Sun) on
December 25th was celebrated with great joy, and eventually this
date was taken over by the Christians as Christmas, the birthday of
Christ.”

Notice how it says “both Christ and Mithra acquired the traits of
solar deities”? The Christians were apparently trying to get more
converts so they tried to “paganize” the Messiah to make Him more
attractive to pagans. They even officially brought the feast of the
unconquered sun into their worship in 336 AD. This is the origin of
Christmas.

Christmas means ‘mass for Christ’. The name of the holiday is much
newer than the holiday itself. The customs associated with
Christmas, in one form or another, have been celebrated for
literally thousands of years. ‘Christmas’ is just a new name for an
old holiday.

There is no doubt that the customs that are associated with
Christmas, as well as the idea of a deity being born on December
25th are of pagan origin. One need only look to an encyclopedia or
even many local newspapers in the 12th month of the year to find
this truth. The real issue is whether or not we should walk in these
customs. So what is so bad about it? Is it just for the children?
What should we be teaching our children? Truth or lies?

The truth is that the Messiah was not born on December 25th.
December 25th is the birthday of nearly every pagan god ever
invented! In fact, the pagan customs associated with Christmas are
clearly condemned in the scriptures. Paganism/Idolatry is something
that is against Yahweh. If we know that the roots of Christmas are
of pagan origin, shouldn’t the roots of our worship be in the
scriptures, rather than paganism? Yahweh’s people should always
seek the truth. Consider these scriptures:

Jeremiah 10:1 Hear the word which Yahweh speaks to you, O house of
Israel. 2 Thus says Yahweh: “Do not learn the way of the Gentiles;
Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven, For the Gentiles are
dismayed at them. 3 For the customs of the peoples are futile; For
one cuts a tree from the forest, The work of the hands of the
workman, with the ax. 4 They decorate it with silver and gold; They
fasten it with nails and hammers So that it will not topple.

First of all, Yahweh is telling us in this verse “Do not learn the
way of the Gentiles” Don’t even learn it, let alone practice it and
incorporate it into the worship of Yahweh! Secondly, it says that
the Gentiles were dismayed at the signs of heaven.
History tells us that when the sun began to go further away from the
earth and the days grew shorter in the winter, the sun worshipping
Gentiles were “dismayed”, and feared that the sun would not return.
So they held certain festivals just after the time of the Winter
Solstice when it did begin to return. This return of the sun is why
December 25th is the birthday of so many solar deities. One of the
customs the pagans has was to decorate a tree that they had cut down
and fasten it so that would not topple.

Yahweh tells us not to learn the way of the heathen. And here He
even goes so far as describe a custom that is a way of the heathen.
Yet, we see this same custom exist even today which is called the
Christmas tree.

This custom, along with other pagan customs like it are clearly
condemned in this passage. Other customs include Mistletoe, the Yule
log and Santa Claus. If you seek, you will find that these things
are rooted in idolatry also.

Santa Claus

All over the world, Santa Claus is God to the children of the world
(move the n to the end of Santa). Others say ‘Father Christmas’.
Parents purposely and deliberately lie to their children and tell
them that they should fear Santa Claus because “he knows if you’ve
been bad or good”. These same parents also lie to their children
about the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy. Then they wonder why their
children become liars and don’t believe the Messiah is real later on
in life. This is clearly a total abomination to Yahweh.

You don’t have to look very far in the word of Yahweh to find out
how much he loathes idolatry and lies. Yahweh is the only true
Mighty One. Our children look to us and believe every word we say.
Do they not deserve the truth? How abominable it is for a believer
to teach their children to fear Santa Claus and in so doing creep an
idol into the conscience of a child!

Lies, lies everything is lies

The very foundation of the Christmas holiday is a lie. The Messiah
was not born December 25th. He did not ask us to celebrate his
birthday. He did not say to set up a tree in our house and decorate
it and our houses with anything. Santa Claus does not exist. He
doesn’t have reindeer that fly and he isn’t going to come on
December 25th and leave any gifts.

Everything is a lie. Is Yahweh the originator of this holiday? Or is
it the father of lies? Yahshua condemned the leaders of that
generation for teaching lies:

John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your
father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode
not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh
a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of
it.

It’s high time that we forsake these lies and abide in the truth!
Let’s forsake this foolish practice of yoking the Messiah (who
said “I am the TRUTH”) together with lies, for He has nothing to do
with lies.

Revelation 22:14 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. 5 But outside are dogs and sorcerers and
sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and
practices a lie.

The book of Revelation also predicts that those who hate Yahweh will
be glad when the two witnesses of Yahweh die, for they will make
merry and have a gift exchange:

Revelation 11:9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and
nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and
shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.10 And those
who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, and send
gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who
dwell on the earth.

Sound familiar?

Mixed worship condemned in scripture

Now let’s take this a step further. Not only is it sinful in the
eyes of Yahweh to practice these traditions, it is also a sin to
take these traditions of pagans and apply them to the worship of
Yahweh.

Deuteronomy 12:29 “When Yahweh your Elohim cuts off from before you
the nations which you go to dispossess, and you displace them and
dwell in their land,

(This is Yahweh warning the children of Israel about what NOT to do
when going into the promised land)

30 “take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them,
after they are destroyed from before you, and that you do not
inquire after their gods, saying, `How did these nations serve their
gods? I also will do likewise.’

Not “Let us serve there elohim (gods)” but “HOW did these nations
serve there elohim”

31 “You shall not worship Yahweh your Elohim in that way; for every
abomination to Yahweh which He hates they have done to their gods;
for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their
gods. 32 “Whatever I command you, be careful to observe it; you
shall not add to it nor take away from it.

Very CLEAR. “Thou shalt not do so unto YAHWEH thy Elohim:” It is
abundantly clear. Do not worship Yahweh in that way, the way of the
heathen! Do not add to His commandments and do not take away from
His commandments. Both Christmas and Easter take pagan festivals and
traditions and apply them to the worship of Yahweh. This is clearly
condemned here. Would it be right to take a Satanic holiday that
Satanists have invented and then incorporate that holiday into the
worship of Yahweh? Surely not. Yet all paganism is Satanism. Satan
is behind all pagan worship. And whatever god the idolaters worship,
they are actually worshipping Satan.

December 25th could not have been the date of “Jesus”, or Yashua’s
birthday. From scripture we know that Yahshua was born while the
shepherd’s were watching over their flocks. The shepherd’s would
not have been watching over their flocks by night in December,
during the cold and rainy season.

In fact, it is best supported by scripture that Yashua would have
been born in the fall, sometime in September to October.

However, December 25th did originate with the ancient “birthday” of
the sun-god, Mithra. The Roman festival included gift giving,
feasting, and singing.

Sometime after 336 A.D., Emperor Constantine officially converted
this pagan tradition into what Christians now call Christmas.

The Roman Catholic Church wanted/needed to do something to bring in
the pagans. Apparently Christianity was struggling in popularity
and they needed to gain support among the pagan crowd.

Choosing December 25th, the birthday of the mithra sun-god, and
tagging it “Christ’s Mass”, they now had their official celebration
of “Jesus’ birth.

Some of these common pagan Christmas rituals and their real meanings…

Holly

Holly has been used in Christmas tradition for almost sixteen
hundred years. It was also used, long before, in pagan traditions.
In ancient Rome, holly was associated with Saturn, the god of the
harvest. In Druidic and other related pagan traditions, holly leaves
were placed around homes in the winter to provide shelter for
fairies.

Early Christians, in what later became Great Britain, probably
adopted this tradition in order to avoid persecution, but holly was
eventually reinterpreted with Christian symbolism. Danielle Wagner
tells us that she heard about the Christian symbolism of holly
during a sermon. The pointy edges represent the crown of thorns
that Christ wore during His crucifixion. The red berries represent
Christ’s blood which He shed during His torture and death.

In Scandinavia and Germany, holly is called “Christ’s thorn.”

Christmas Tree

Trees were in ancient times used as pagan religious symbol. In Egypt
that tree was the palm-tree; in Rome it was the fir; the palm-tree
denoting the Pagan Messiah, as Baal-Tamar, the fir referring to him
as Baal-Berith. The mother of Adonis, the Sun-God and great
mediatorial divinity, was mystically said to have been changed into
a tree, and when in that state to have brought forth her divine son.
If the mother was a tree, the son must have been recognized as “Man
of the branch.”

Mistletoe

In Druid tradition, “the mistletoe was regarded as a divine branch –
a branch that came from heaven, and grew upon a tree that sprang out
of the earth. Thus by the engrafting of the celestial branch into
the earthly tree, heaven and earth, that sin had severed, were
joined together, and thus the mistletoe bough became the token of
Divine reconciliation to man, the kiss being the well-known token of
pardon and reconciliation.”

This symbolism is easily appropriated and redefined in a Christian
context, since the Christian story is one of a divine Branch, a
root of Jesse, who died to reconcile heaven and earth, God and man,
and since the early Church greeted one another with “a holy kiss.”

Santa Claus

The Santa Claus story arose from legends surrounding the Catholic
patron saint of storm-tossed sailors, Nicholas. These legends in
turn have their roots in still earlier pagan myths, including the
Roman Befana, the Germanic Berchta and Knecht Ruprecht, and the
Scandinavian Odin. Odin was said to have ridden through the sky in
winter with a pack of elves, rewarding men with gifts. St. Nicholas
was renowned for saving three ladies who would have been sold into
slavery, had he not thrown three bags of gold thorough their
window. In countries such as Holland and Germany, Santa Claus was
said to ride through the sky on a horse. Pictures show him wearing a
bishop’s robes. He was sometimes accompanied by “Black Peter,” an
elf who whipped naughty children.
Traditionally, the feast day of Saint Nicholas was observed on
December 6th and gifts were given. Later, however, German
Protestants encouraged people to instead worship the Christkindl (or
Christ child) on December 25th. The Christ Child (or an angel
resembling him) was said to have visited families on Christmas Eve,
leaving gifts and toys. The term Christkindl evolved into Kriss
Kringle, a popular nickname for Santa Claus.

Gift Giving

The Christians attribute the giving of gifts at Christmas to the
three wise men who brough gold, frankincense and myrrh to the
newborn Jesus. But this tradition was common well before the time of
Jesus, during Saturnalia.

The True Names of the Most High God and His Son

Now, more than ever, it is important that we know the true names of
the Most High and His Son, Yahshua. Christianity has been taught
God and Jesus, but God is a title. For example, my daughters call
me “Mom”, but that is not my name. I don’t have “Mom” typed on my
drivers’ license and I can’t sign my checks and pay bills with “Mom”.

“God” doesn’t even specify what `god’ one is referring to. After
all, Satan is going to be coming back as `god’. Pagan cults have
gods for all sorts of things.

It is Yahovah that is the one and only Most High God. It is Yahovah
that created man and everything that we know. It is Yahovah that
also commanded us to use His name.

In the Strong’s Dictionary, Yahovah means self-Existent or Eternal.

Jeremiah 33:2 Thus saith Jehovah the doer of it, Jehovah that
formeth it to establish it, Jehovah is his name: 33:3 Call unto me,
and I will answer thee, and I will shew thee great and hidden
things, which thou knowest not.

Isaiah 12:4 And in that day shall ye say, Give ye thanks to Jehovah,
call upon his name, declare his deeds among the peoples, make
mention that his name is exalted.

The original Hebrew name of our Savior was Yahu’Shuah or
Yahshua. ‘YAH or YAHU means salvation in Hebrew. That is why we
find it in both the names of the Father and the Son.

Yahshua was later changed to “Je-Zeus Khristos” by the pagan masses
as they converted to what was becoming Christianity. This took
place with great help of leaders, such as Constantine, who was a
Zeus worshipper that was said to have converted to Christianity.

Others claim that it was just the translation, but as this pagan
base unfolds, the true picture is really becoming clearer.

The Big Picture

Do you get it yet? What we have in Christianity is one carefully
orchestrated setup by Satan and his fan club, through pagan
Rome/Roman Catholic church, to deceive the masses. Satan found a
way to get billions of people throughout the ages to think they were
worshipping the Most High God and finding salvation in His Son, when
in fact, he was selling them the complete opposite.

Through Christianity Satan has conditioned everyone for the return
of the fake “Jesus”. The one that will come before the true Son of
God, Yahshua. The fake one will come by the name “Jesus”, among
other names to cover all the religions. He will most likely come
with the same face that we’ve always seen in the pictures.

Only, the fake one will return claiming world peace and love.
Yahshua is coming back to destroy all that is left.

In the mean time, thousands upon thousands have been routinely
celebrating pagan holidays, worshipping another god, breaking the
laws of the Most High

Get out of religion folks, and get back to the ONE and ONLY, Most
High God, Yahovah! Start spending one on one time with HIM. Ask
that HE teach you HIMSELF what HIS truths are and to keep you from
Satan’s lies and deceptions.
