Most denominations and religions teach some form of human effort as a means to attain heaven.  The Messiah came and took the punishment we deserve so He could offer us eternal life as a GIFT that He alone could pay for.  There is no prayer, no confession, no good work that could add to His perfect sacrifice. When someone adds anything more than faith it is no longer the Good News of the Bible. Hope we agree.  www.greatestnews.org

One scripture that almost never escapes misinterpretation is Genesis 2:18. Because in this verse Eve is called a "help meet" according to the King James Version, eisegetes often use it as proof that she (and by…

As II Peter 3:14-17 warns, some of the Apostle Paul’s writings provide opportunity for the cursory reader to be led into error. A case in point, the phrase "blotting out the handwriting of ordinances" found in…

In the Greek New Testament the term μονογενης monogenes, often translated as "only begotten (son)", is applied to Yeshua. Perhaps the most popularized occurrence of this term is the famous…

The Long Version of Esther

and

Spiritual Warfare

By James Scott Trimm

Although the lack of the presence of the use of the Sacred Name of YHWH is conspicuous in the short version of Esther, the name of YHWH seems to be shouting from between the lines of almost every verse. As we have shown in a recent study, the name of YHWH appears hidden in key locations of…

There are two versions of our Book of Esther, a long version and a short version. The short version, is the one that appears in most Bibles today.



The long version contains the following additional material (found in the "Apocrypha" today under the Title "The Rest of Esther" or "Additions to Esther":



10:4-11:1 Mordecai's dream…

While the Name of YHWH is mysteriously absent from the short version of Esther as it appears in the Masoretic Text, the Name of YHWH does appear encoded in the Hebrew text at four transitional points of the story, showing us that YHWH is guiding the events of the book (a point made more plain in the long version of the Book of…

manifestations, through the prophets.

Purim is coming up!



The Feast of Nicanor is March 7 (Adar 13) and celbrates the final defeat of Nicanor the general of Antiochus Epiphanies.  This is sort of a follow up to Channukah (1Macc. 7:48-50 & 2Macc. 15:36).



The next days (Purim is March 8 (Adar 14) and Shushan Purim is March 9 (Adar 15)) are the Feast of Purim which celebrates the victory of the Jewish people over the plans of Haman to destroy us as depicted in the Book of Ester (Ester 9:20-22).…

I am sure you all know the Purim story as found in the Book of Ester, but there is an amazing prophecy buried in the original Hebrew of this book that you may not have heard of. In the Book of Ester Haman the son of Hamdata wanted "to destroy, to kill, and to exterminate" all Jews. In the end however the Jews…

Shalom Chaverim,



Just a reminder that we have a festival complex coming up, the Feast of Nicanor and the Feast of Purim.



The Feast of Nicanor is March 7 (Adar 13) and celbrates the final defeat of Nicanor the general of Antiochus Epiphanies.  This is sort of a follow up to Channukah (1Macc. 7:48-50 & 2Macc. 15:36).



The next days (Purim is March 8 (Adar 14) and Shushan Purim is March 9 (Adar 15)) are the Feast of Purim which celebrates the victory of the…

The Book of Enoch says concerning the return of the Nefilim in the Last days:



And in those days the angels shall return

And hurl themselves to the east upon the Parthians and Medes:

They shall stir up the kings, so that a spirit of unrest shall come upon them,

And they shall rouse them from their…

TRADITIONS OF THE ELDERS

By

James Scott Trimm

In Matthew 15:1-23 and Mark 7:1-23 there is a record of a conflict between Yeshua and a group of Pharisees.  This conflict has been mischaracterized by many as a conflict between Yeshua and the Oral Law in general, rather than a typical debate of the time…

Shalom Chaverim. I have been reading the Sefer HaYashar (Book of Jasher) - a great read, by the way. However I have a couple of questions.

First, there appears to be a conflict between this book and the Torah regarding how long the Children of Israel were in Egypt before the Exodus. The Book of Jasher says 210 years, whereas the Torah says 430 years, as YHWH prophesied to Avraham. Which is correct? The second question is - who or what is Silonot? She appears in the book during the…

Folks this has been a crazy month!  It has been one thing after another.  Our car has been out of commission for the last two weeks.  We have had to have major work done on it (including a bad ECM) and have been forced to rent a car in the meantime.  This has been a very expensive month for us and the bills are still due.
