Chapter 6
The Great Apostasy
|
I realize most people reading this either are now or were
professing “Christians” and simply cannot begin to believe what I am saying in
this book. I too had to overcome this lie by first admitting The Truth in His
Word that is clearly stated that contradicts the pagan rituals of Christianity.
Before we even begin to examine the doctrines of Christianity, let us first
simply look at the term “Christian” and ask ourselves; “would Yahuah ever
accept such a name for His Elect?”
Where did
the term “Christian” come from?
Very few people realize that the term “Christian” was a very
popular pagan label associated with many pagan cults long before the Messiah
lived and died! In fact, the followers of Mithras, Helios, and Orisis… all
“Christians” or “Chrestos” in Greek:
·
Chrestos Mithras
·
Christ Helios
·
Chreistos Osiris
·
Krishna (is Sanskrit for Christ)
The followers of Yahusha the Messiah were called by a very
specific name and it was never “Christians” it was “Nazarenes” see Acts 24:5
and Acts 28:22.
The question that begs to be asked is the following:
"What would a bunch of Israelites that practice the
Torah of Yahuah and follow a Yahudi (Jewish) Messiah be doing with a Greek term
used by Pagans as a label for themselves?" … they didn’t and wouldn’t.
Are we to search out the Greco-Roman roots, or the Hebrew origins of our faith?
One of them hinders and clouds our understanding, and the other is essential
to it! Should we defend the Greek term, or abandon it and use the term
Nazarenes - the term they were really known by?
The term "Christos" is Greek, and is defined as
meaning "anointed". Although it is treated as a translation
for the Hebrew word "Mashiach", its use in the Greek language is
derived from a completely different application. It is a Greek word and in fact
not a translation from Hebrew at all. The term Christos was more of a medical
term, because healers in the Greek culture used all manner of tinctures for
various ailments; some taken internally, and others used topically. The first
two letters in "Christos" are CHI + RHO, and appear as X (CHI) and P
(RHO). If you put these together, they form the "R-X" symbol still
used today in the pharmaceutical and the apothecary trade, who mix and weigh
dosages of medication for the sick.
The Greeks' tongue blended sounds in strange ways, producing
combinations like "DZ" and others. As early as 200 BCE, there were
Pagan worshippers of Serapis that called themselves "Christians".
In the Vatican, one can view an original Pagan relief
depicting MITHRAS with the words CHRESTOS MITHRAS, meaning "good
Mithras". Mithraism was the main Pagan religion of ancient Rome, and
became blended with the Messiah of Israel through the compromises of the
Nicaean Council, headed by Constantine and his son Crispus (325-326 CE).
The Greco-Roman mindset of translators gave preference
to the Greek over the Hebrew language, and played-down the Hebrew terminology,
in order to make everything more acceptable to the pagan culture of the
unwashed, uneducated masses. That is why we have “Christian” in our English
Bibles instead of Nazarenes.
The Hebrew term “Mashiach” was carried over into the Greek
letters as "MESSIAH" because the Greek alphabet is unable to
transliterate the exact sounds of some letters, such as the sound of
"SH" - this became the "SS", because Greek cannot make
this sound. The Hebrew meaning of Mashiach is anointed King, and applies to the
person that is reigning as KING of Israel. A chosen man was
"anointed" as the king with oil, as we see the prophet anointed David
on his head with oil. It may have been olive oil, but it represents the
"Spirit" of Yahuah being placed upon the ruler. All kings of Israel
were "Mashiachim", or anointed ones. "Mashiachim" may have
been the original word used by Luke at Acts 11:26, however translators
preferred the Greek flavor, and used the word "Christian" 3
times in the "Renewed Covenant" (New Testament) writings.
Simply put, the Creator’s Elect would never be called by a
Greek pagan reference to other gods.
(EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK, TORAH ZONE)
Look at the big picture, and keep an open mind
for several options. Knowing there is some relationship with the word cretin,
what if the people of Antioch, at first, called the disciples CRETINS
(retards, idiots)? Don't fall for the excuse, "we speak English, not
Hebrew". The word "crestos" (or kristos, chreistos) isn't
English, it's Greek. If we follow the redemption plan of our Creator, keeping
the Torah of Yahuah, we are counted among the citizenship of Israel; not
a "Gentile", foreign nation. In fact, we are no longer
Gentiles at all (Eph. 2:11-13), although we were at one time strangers to the
covenants. After our immersion, there is no distinction, and no dividing wall
between us and a native-born Israelite. The main idea that people seem to be steered
away from when words like "Christian" are examined closely is that
the original word (the Hebrew word,
MASHIACH) is not being brought to the table, but is typically kept from the
discussion. The word "Christianity" is not found in the Scriptures at
all, so there is no such thing in reality. Misdirection is used to convince the
listener of supposed facts which are not true, and by simply saying the lie
often enough, it will become familiar, and therefore comfortable. In this
particular case, the premise is that the original word was this
Greek word
"Christos", since it is emphasized (by those with an agenda to
preserve the error of tradition) that the disciples of Yahusha all spoke and
wrote in Greek. We are expected to pay no mind that Greek is a foreign
language to the people of Israel. It's a promotion of the Jesuits to
believe that the Messiah and His students spoke to one another, and wrote
everything down, in Greek. The truth is, Greek was a transitional language, or translation,
of the original texts originally written in Hebrew (or the dialect of
it, Syraic Aramaic). Remember, all the first "protestants" were
Catholics, and they had already been indoctrinated with the Jesuit teachings.
What is practically unknown is the fact that there were
"Christians" on Earth before Yahusha haMashiach was
born - and they were Pagans.
The Greek word "Christos" (kristos) has come to
mean anointed, and this corresponds to the Hebrew word Mashiach. What is not
commonly known is that Osiris and Mithras were both called
"Chreistos", which meant "GOOD". The word was adopted from
gnostic Paganism: The inscription "CHRESTOS" can be seen on a Mithras
relief in the Vatican. During the time of Marcion, around 150 CE, Justin
Martyr said that "Christians" were "Chrestoi", or "good
men". Clement of Alexandria said "all who believe in Christ are
called "Chrestoi, that is 'good men'". Rome was the center of Chrestos
Mithras worship, so the adaptation or revisionism to the new faith for this
title should hardly be a huge mystery; but this information has been
intentionally buried. The word "Christian" is only used 3 times in
the received Greek texts; and if it were in fact what the disciples called
themselves as a "sect", it would have seemed very foreign to not only
them, but to everyone involved. Of course, every Israelite
(and modern orthodox "Jew") believes in a "Mashiach" that
is coming at some point. Many of them - in fact most - don't currently believe
in the Mashiach portrayed by the "Christian" faith in any of its
diverse denominations. However, if we had to adopt a Greek word for these
practitioners of "Judaism" that related to them as believers in a
coming Mashiach,
then they too could be labeled "Christians". But, the word
"Christian" is a very non-specific
label when you consider that it doesn't specify who the Mashiach is. The true
sect that followed Yahusha's teachings did use a term for themselves, and it
was NATSARIM (Acts 24:5). Even the "Church father" Epiphanius wrote
of the Natsarim, whom he called "heretics", because they observed the
Commandments of Yahuah and were indistinguishable from "Jews", except
that they believed in the Mashiach.
In relation to the Torah, a Christian might well be
considered to be retarded;
Hebrews 5:12
Spiritual Immaturity
12 For though by this
time you ought to be teachers (of
the Torah, there was no such thing as the New Testament for another 300 years
later), you need someone to teach you again the first
principles of the oracles of God (what
is that? It is the Torah!); and you have come to need
milk and not solid food. 13For everyone who partakes only of milk is
unskilled in the word of
righteousness (i.e. the Torah/Law),
for he is a babe. 14But solid food belongs to those who are of full
age (mature Saints with minds set on Spiritual Law),
that is, those who by reason of use (by obedience to the Law) have their senses exercised (trained by the Torah) to discern both good and
evil (which is defined by the Law of God, good is
obedience to His Commands, evil is breaking them).
As the actual word that means "retard" or
"idiot" is derived from the same root as CHRISTIAN: crestin!
The American Heritage
Illustrated Encyclopedic Dictionary tells us the etymology for the word
CRETIN:
cre-tin (kre-tin, kret'n) n.
1.
One afflicted with
Cretinism. 2.
A
fool; an idiot. [French, cretin, from Swiss French, crestin,
CHRISTIAN, hence human being (an idiot being nonetheless human).]
Cretinism is dwarfism and or retardation. Cretin is simply the word that is
derived from the word CHRISTIAN, crestin.
“For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of
sedition among all the Yahudim throughout the world and a ringleader of the
sect (G139,
hairesis)
of
the Nazarenes
(G3480)
. . .”
The
Greek word hairesis above gives us our word “heresy” translated “sect”. So we
know the “sect” being spoken of was not the Christians, because Christians
developed later.
The word
christianos
was used twice in the Greek text as a device of scorn, since in the ancient
world it conveyed a much different sense than it does today. The use of the
word christianos did not “name” the
sect, but it was a derisive, scornful
label
that meant they were like gullible, dumb beasts, or “cretins”.
The
word “christianos” (Latin, Christianus)
was a term of scorn, traced back through
a related word which history never “revised”:
cre·tin (krēt'n) n.
1. A person afflicted with
cretinism.
Slang: An idiot.
[French
crétin, from French dialectal, deformed and mentally retarded person found in
certain Alpine valleys, from Vulgar Latin *christiānus, Christian, human
being, poor fellow, from Latin Chrīstiānus, Christian; see Christian.]

Christianity
the False Religion of the Beast
I realize this “Great Deception” called Christianity is so
powerful that if possible could even deceive the very elect of Yahuah. This is
the exact same warning given by the Messiah Yahusha:
Matthew 24
22
“If
those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of
the elect those days will be shortened. 23 At
that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he
is!’ do not believe it. 24 For False Messiahs and false
prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if
possible, even the elect.
25 See, I
have told you ahead of time.
Yahusha is warning us NOT to fall for this False
Messiah or “Christ” of which there are LONG line that all evolved from Tammuz
of Babylon into Hesus Horus Krishna aka Jesus H. Christ as I will show
historically in this book. Yahusha above in Matthew 24 is speaking of the
result of the Transgression of Desolation which leads to the Abomination
of Desolation. The “falling away” is the Transgression of
Desolation or Great Apostasy that causes the inhabitants of the Earth
and the Earth itself to be destroyed. The Earth is led astray by False Messiahs
and prophets to disobey the commandment of Yahuah. This deception is so strong
it almost even deceives the very chosen sons of Yahuah. This “Transgression
of Desolation” is spoken of by the prophet Daniel in Daniel 8:12 and
the prophet Isaiah. Isaiah defines the Transgression of Desolation
(transgression that desolates) and “great apostasy” or falling away as
violating the Feasts/Torah/Sabbaths of Yahuah:
Isaiah 24
1 See, Yahuah is
going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and
scatter its inhabitants— 5 The earth is defiled by its people; they have
disobeyed the laws, violated the statutes and broken the everlasting covenant (The Sabbath). 6 Therefore a curse consumes the
earth; its people must bear their guilt. Therefore earth’s inhabitants are
burned up, and very few are left.
In Daniel 8 this is called The Transgression of
Desolation which causes the daily defense of the Archangel Michael to
be removed (Daniel 12:1). The word “sacrifices” in your modern English
translation below was added by the translators in error as I will cover in this
book series:
Daniel 8
Then I heard one saint speaking,
and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be
the vision concerning the daily sacrifice (sacrifice was added, should have been daily defense of
Michael see Daniel 12:1), and the transgression of desolation,
to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?
It is the “Great Apostasy” or violation of the Laws, Feasts,
and Sabbaths of Yahuah that define this “False Messiah” as he is the one
in whose name the Law is abolished i.e. the lawless one, and the
ordained times (feasts) and calendar of Yahuah are all changed to pagan in
origin.
Daniel 7
25 He will speak out against the
Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to
make alterations in (ordained) times and
in (the) law (of Yahuah);
There is only ONE name in the history of mankind in
which credit is given for changing the Law (abolishing it) and changing the
ordained times from those commanded (Sabbaths/Passover/Feasts) to pagan rituals
(Sunday/Easter/Christmas). That name is Jesus
H. Christ. There was never an actual man by that name as it is not Hebrew,
that is an IMAGE of the Pig of Ishtar or Beast of the Earth that is not Yahusha.
Jesus is the latest incarnation of TAMMUZ the son of the Queen of Heaven and
“the sun of God” the second member of The Babylonian Trinity as I explain in
detail in this book!
In this book I am going to define exactly “what” that Great
Deception or The Transgression of Desolation is and how it came
to happen. Who was it that caused the entire population of Earth to transgress
the Feasts/Torah/Sabbath of Yahuah. In what false image of the Messiah was this
done? What “image of a man” have we elevated in our hearts as God above Yahuah?
I will provide proof scripturally and historically.
Syncretism
We learned in my book The Mystery Religion of Babylon
exactly what Sun worship is… The Trinity/Sunday/Easter/Christmas. We will learn
in this chapter that in fact “Christianity” (as created by the Roman Emperor
Constantine) is verbatim The Mystery Religion of Babylon
and has nothing in common with The Faith found in the Bible.
Through Christianity, we have elevated Tammuz (under his
pagan names Hesus Horus Krishna which evolved into Jesus H. Christ) and the
unholy Trinity of I.H.S. (Isis/Horus/Seb the pagan god names of
Semaramis/Nimrod/Tammuz) in our hearts as God above Yahuah. And in that name, Jesus,
which is a false image of the true Messiah, we have abolished the
Feasts/Torah/Sabbaths and are guilty of the Great Apostasy called The
Transgression of Desolation and have fallen away from Yahuah in totality.
We have become lawless and where there is no law there is no sin, where there
is no sin there is no Grace. We will die dead in our transgressions having put
our faith in Easter over Passover as commanded.
Because we have committed the Transgression of
Desolation, Yahuah has given us over to believe a lie; the Babylonian
Religion repackaged for us today by Constantine called Christianity. We have
replaced Yahuah / Yahusha / Passover / Sabbath / The Law with a pagan
Babylonian lie of The Trinity / Jesus / Easter / Sunday / Christmas / no law
and we are guilty of committing The Abomination of Desolation! That
abominable sacrifice is the blood of the Ishtar Pig on our hearts (the Alter)
instead of the blood of the Passover Lamb as each year we sacrifice a pig (eat
ham) on Easter (celebration of Ishtar) instead of a lamb on Passover. We put
out faith in the Good-Friday/Easter Sunday “Jesus” instead of the
Passover/Sabbath Yahusha! One is the “Earthly Pig of Ishtar” literally by name;
the other is The Lamb of Yahuah literally by name.
This abomination each year causes the daily sacrifices and
oblation of The Passover Lamb (Yahusha) to cease on our behalf which causes the
destruction of our bodies (The Temple of Yahuah). I explain all of this in
detail in this book series. First, we must identify, define, and expose the Transgression
of Desolation called The Great Apostasy. A false religion carefully put
in place over time blending paganism into the Truth (deluding from the Truth
i.e. Grand Delusion) so that it “seems” or is “believed” to be based on the
Word of Yahuah. When in fact, it is an abomination to everything holy to Yahuah
and has been since The Tower of Babel until now.
It is this false religion that causes us to “transgress” the
ordained times, Sabbaths, and law of Yahuah, that per Isaiah 24:1-6, which
leads to our own spiritual and physical destruction but also that of the
surface of the Earth… The Great Tribulation.
What occurred from the time of The Messiah’s death until now
is called Syncretism:
Syncretism
(definition): is the combining of different (often contradictory) beliefs,
often while melding practices of various schools of thought. Syncretism may
involve the merger and analogizing of several originally discrete traditions,
especially in the theology and mythology of religion, thus asserting an
underlying unity and allowing for an inclusive approach to other faiths.
This is exactly what the Roman Emperor Constantine did in a
purely political and quite genius move to being peace in his realm. Constantine
created Christianity (or rather sold us on his existing religion of Mithraism
called The Cult of Sol Invictus) solely for the political purposes of bringing
peace among pagans. He combined many contradictory belief systems into one
Christo-pagan religion by melding practices of all pagan religions and various
schools of secular scholarly thought. He merged these pagan traditions
discretely into one “Universal Religion” he called Christianity and
literally “altered the original manuscripts” in the New Testament to make it
inclusive in this lie. Then had the originals burned to hide this abomination. I
will confront these altered modern translations and prove them to be uninspired
to say the least.
Constantine originally blended all religions into one to
“allow for an all inclusive approach” to his new religion (which was actually
his existing religion) from all faiths in his Empire. He did this as a
political move to unify the Roman Empire under one religion to secure his
reign. He then burned all the evidence and forced this new religion on all
subjects of The Roman Empire by threat of death. This is known as The
Inquisition. Then by banning all religious texts, his new “religion”
the Roman Catholic Church took control and plunged the world into what is known
as The Dark Ages restricting access to books for so long that
no one would ever question their pagan traditions and doctrines. No one
could own a copy of The Word of Yahuah to know the Truth. All those who “knew
the Truth” had been executed in the Inquisition or went into hiding. The Dark
Ages fell upon humanity in the 5th Century and lasted until the 10th
Century. Literally 500 years The Catholic Church dominated humanity and
entrenched this pagan religious lie so well that even today it is not
even dared questioned by most.
I guess congratulations are in order if you are even reading
this book series. You are one of the very “few” who will now know the true
origin of Christianity. If you continue through the entire series you will be
one of the even fewer to know what The Bible actually says.
The Reformation that began with Martin Luther, John Calvin,
and Augustine after the Renaissance (enlightenment) was only the
beginning leading to the “protesting Catholic” or Protestant Christian
denominations. These Protestant “daughters of the Whore” to this day still
keep the fundamental doctrines of the Catholic Church (The
Trinity/Jesus/Sunday/pagan holidays) in total opposition to Yahuah/Yahusha/Passover/Sabbath/Feasts
of Yahuah which is the True Faith. Both Catholic and Protestant churches are Christianity
– The Great Deception. This “reformation” has continued among the true chosen
among the gentile nations and continues today. I have been engaged in this
battle to reform Christianity for 25 years. It is a “process” and a slow one as
this pagan religious lie is very well entrenched and not easily purged from the
hearts and minds of humanity.
Even today one is “excommunicated” from family, society,
politics, and especially their church for even questioning such abominations as
The Trinity, Sunday worship, the name Jesus, Easter, or Christmas. All of which
are clearly pagan in origin and directly opposed to sound explicit doctrine in
Scripture. So let us know expose these false doctrines and fundamentals of
Christianity by first exposing its origin.
