Come out of her!!

This song was really speaking to me on the way to work this morning.

Hint: Babylon is more than just a place or economic system…  One definition of Babylon as presented in Scripture is false worship.  Syncretism.

It is time to GET OUT!!

Still ‘nother thought…

It is the nature of the human species to reject what is true but unpleasant and embrace what is obviously false but comforting.

The Valentine’s Day that was Forgotten

Here is a guest post by sister Loammi addressing a challenging topic.  As you read and are challenged by this information, please prayerfully ask the Father for Truth!!  Through Truth, comes peace and life.  Shalom, Pete

The Valentine’s Day that was forgotten

Nowadays, we equate Valentine’s Day with Saint Valentine. But was this the true origin? Ideis-ValentinasAs with most all of our holidays, if we do a little research we see all roads lead to Rome. Then, with a little more digging, we find all Roman roads lead to Babylon/Chaldea.

Why do I make this point? I feel it’s important to get to the root of things. If Jesus, Yahushua in Hebrew, is our root, then do these things line up and bear good fruit or are they producing bad, foreign, or strange fruit?

Let’s take a look at Cupid, Valentine cards and this holiday centered around love. God is love, right? What could be wrong with the holiday? (Please keep in mind, the devil goes about disguised as an angel of light-or else we’d spot him right away). Let’s go back to Nimrod in Babylon. He was rebellious and was known as a mighty hunter (considering bow and arrow), and after the dispersion at Babel the peoples spoke different languages, thus calling him many different names. He was known as, Tammuz, Osiris, Eros (where we get the word erotic) Bacchus, Thor, Cupid, Baal, and Marduk to name just a few. Depending on the culture you are in he goes by many names. He had an incestuous relationship with Continue reading

TP: Yitro

For those unfamiliar with Messianic worship of Yeshua, you may never have heard of Torah Portions.  Interestingly, the entire Messianic community, (worldwide, I think!) uses the same reading/study schedule which includes several chapters from the Torah, a selection from the Haftarah (Prophets and writings) as well as a Brit Hadashah (New Testament) selection.  If I am not mistaken, this is basically the same schedule that Judaism uses, though they do not include the Brit Hadashah.  What is cool is that everyone in the congregation can be studying ahead and knows the general vicinity of the week’s lesson.  While Yahweh may teach each person a different lesson from the Scriptures that week, the whole congregation is ‘on the same page.’

Also of interest is that each portion has a name specific to that portion revealing some connected meaning, usually from the first verse of the Torah reading.

This week’s Torah Portion is named ‘Yitro’ (Jethro) and is Shemot (Exodus) 18-20; Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 6:1-7:6; 9:6-7 and Mattiyahu (Matthew) 6:1-8:1.

My purpose for putting this up is to have a place for those who wish to share insights and thoughts through the week on that week’s portion.  I don’t want to give away what I will be teaching, but at the same time am anxious to share other thoughts that are not related to my lesson.  Hopefully, we can all benefit.

I’ll go first…
