The purpose of this website is to publish Restored Scriptural Truths.

Much Scriptural truth has been deliberately perverted, forgotten, and mixed with man-made ideas over the centuries.  The result of that process is what is called religion.  The Scriptures ought to be the authority by which we define the word religion, not secular dictionaries which are quite wrong in their definition of it.  Religion is the result of man's not being willing to do things the way YAHUAH specified. 

The Scriptures clearly show that it was Adam's firstborn son Cain, [a name that name means Lance] who first invented religion.  Cain was jealous of Abel's closeness with Elohim and was greatly appalled by the animal sacrifices Abel made to Him, so Cain tried to please Elohim his own way.  He offered sacrifices of the things he grew from the ground, but Elohim was not pleased and it enraged Cain to the point of killing his brother.  Ever since then, religion has conformed to the pattern of primarily three things:

1. It counterfeits the truth as set forth by Elohim by altering or omitting parts of it to suit those who insist upon having things their way

2.  It fosters jealous hatred of those who insist upon following the truth.

3. It inspires a willingness to kill those who disagree with their beliefs.

Religion is a three-ring circus that has been developed into an effective tool in the hands of those whose goal it is to acquire and maintain wealth, prestige and power. 

The words of the communist monster, Marx, ring true: "Die Religion ... ist das Opium des Volkes"  "The Religion is the opium of the people."

Those who don't care to study for themselves, those who unquestioningly believe all that what they are told by clergymen; are easy prey for wolves who masquerade as shepherds.  Religious leaders love superstitious sheep-people "sheeple" or "sheople."  These easily manipulated 'sheople' are whose collective strength in numbers and financial backing have made possible the formation of the numerous denominations, the construction of the great church buildings throughout the world and which brought in that modern day scourge, televangelism.  

Frankly, our Creator loathes religion and you won't find one shred of it here.  We freely make available truths that are not proclaimed in churches and the reason they're not is because such truths expose organized religion as a fake.  This is something that most church goers will not tolerate.  We have seen former pastors of churches come to the knowledge of the truth and attempt to teach what they've learned to their congregations, with the results being a very small percentage acknowledging and accepting the truth, while the majority rejects it and call for the removal of the pastor and all who believe as he does.   The most important of these truths are:

1. The Salvation of all.  All means all those that are in heaven and those on earth (Col 1:20).   You don't think there's anything in heaven needing salvation?  You're going to have to find a means of explaining away Col 1:20 then!

2. The Scriptures given to Paul by revelation of Yahshua comprise a separate and complete doctrine for believers to study and obey from the time Paul was last imprisoned in Rome until the resurrection yet to come.  Everything written prior to what Paul was given is good for learning as spiritual history lessons; but were meant for the Circumcision (the twelve tribes of Israel) and are not to be blended with and regarded as a whole with Paul's writings.    

3. That hell is simply the grave, not some place of fiery unending torment.  Our Creator is love personified and never made a place as that.  The religious 'professionals' of old invented it by cunningly twisting the meaning of certain passages of Scripture in the minds of millions of gullible people to rule over them by fear.

4. That the name of the Father Creator is YAHUAH, not The LORD; and the name of his only begotten son is YAHSHUA not "Jesus."

Yahshua is a Hebrew name which means, "YAHUAH is salvation." Yahshua is the name given to the only begotten Son of Elohim, the Hebrew word translated God.  The name YAHUAH means "self-existent" or  I was, I am, I shall be."

The Self Existent One, YAHUAH; has other sons as stated by Scripture (Gen 6:2);  but Yahshua is the only one whom the Set Apart Spirit YAHUAH caused to be conceived in the womb of a virgin Hebrew woman named Miryam, entirely apart from  any involvement of a human male parent.   

This son is Father YAHUAH'S instrument of salvation for the entire creation; and in order to redeem it, he had to have been conceived apart from the Adamic bloodline which is tainted by the inherited consequences of Adam's transgression and passed along in the seed of all male parents. The necessity of bloodline purity will be more clearly explained below.

YAHUAH intended from the beginning to save absolutely all that he created for much higher purposes than any can possibly imagine (Col 1:20; 1Cor 2:9); but before that can happen, purification is necessary.  We can better explain this using the refining process of gold as an example.

A Refiner's fire, working together with flux are the two things which remove impurities mixed with gold as it is found in its natural state, ore. In this refining process, something called flux is added and permeates the molten gold to cleanse and separate the gold from the undesirable elements called dross which both contaminate and lower its value.

Sometimes gold is present as nuggets and requires less heat to render it pure; while in other instances, the gold is  present in a form known as ore and requires more heat in order to for the flux to cleanse it of its greater amount of impurities. 

But in either process, flux is required to complete the task and the Refiner is careful that none of his gold is wasted or lost; only the dross that had formerly clung to it. 

There are great similarities when the refining process and use of the finished product gold are compared to the purification process and future use of all his intelligent creatures, both physical and spiritual, by the Creator YAHUAH.

Again, in this refining process, you must first have a fire to refine with; and secondly, you must have what's known as flux.  Flux is the material that the Refiner uses together with the fire to separate from the gold all of the undesirable elements it has in its raw state as we have mentioned above.  Note that not just any old sort of flux is suitable as the agent for the refinement of gold.  There is a specific type of flux for refining gold and it must be contaminant free otherwise the gold will not be rendered pure.

The unique flux which YAHUAH used to refine all that He has created is the precious blood of His only begotten son, Yahshua. Interestingly enough,  a medical term for the loss of blood is the word flux.

Our mortal state is a kind of crucible in which all are refined by the 'flux' which is Yahshua's blood; and at the end of life we are 'poured' out of this crucible into the 'ingot' of death to await resurrection and the further working of our Great Refiner.   At the return of Yahshua, believers that are in death and that are yet alive shall be snatched up and out of the way of the destruction from YAHUAH that shall come upon the world below. Those caught up and away are given age abiding life and  shall  be  as Yahshua was at his resurrection.  Note: This is not immortality yet; it is age abiding [everlasting] life. '

The accurate understanding of 1Th 4:15-18 and 1Cor 15:51-54 recognizes that these are two completely different events which are separated by span of at least one thousand years!

"For this we say unto you by the word of YAHUAH, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Master shall not precede them which are asleep.  For the Master himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Chief Messenger, and with the trump of El: and the dead in the Messiah shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Master in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Master. Wherefore comfort one another with these words."  (1Th 4:15-18)

"Behold, I reveal to you a secret; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, and then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory."  (1Co 15:51-54)

Yahshua only had age-abiding life at his resurrection.  He was not made immortal until after his public ascension to the Father. It is apparent from the Scriptures that an immortal body is one that shines brighter than the sun. 

Those who saw him after his resurrection did not see him as one who shone brighter than the sun, therefore his body was not changed yet to the "one new man" (Eph. 2:15).  Yahshua became the one new man and went through a complete bodily change AFTER his public ascension to his Father.

Paul was the only person to see Yahshua as the one new man in his brightly shining immortal body, and the experience blinded him for three days, causing permanent damage to his eyes as indicated by Gal 6:11.  No one else with Paul saw him because Yahshua revealed himself only to Paul. "...the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man. (Ac 9:7) 

So until the consummation of the present creation, Yahshua shall remain the only one with immortality (1Ti 6:16). Immortality is not given to anyone else until then (1Cor 15:51-54).        
 
YAHUAH is the Savior.  He is not a loser.  Understand this; if according to Scripture, one transgression of the law made the guilty party a breaker of it all; the same reasoning must equally apply regarding the Savior.  If he loses so much as one, then all must ultimately be irretrievably lost. 

The term "lost" as mentioned in the Scriptures actually refers to losing the opportunity for the glorious earlier resurrection to life that will last until the end of this present creation. That is what the term 'everlasting life means. There are two more eons to go before the consummation of the present creation and those who died as believers shall be resurrected and will get to see and participate in the marvelous activities that will occur during the interval of years remaining in the present creation before all things are created new again.  

Those who died as unbelievers shall face the Great White Throne Judgment and be sentenced to further time in a different crucible known as the lake of fire, which will absolutely rid them of their dross, and allow them to understand and willingly receive at last, the great love of YAHUAH and Yahshua, whose blood (flux) was shed for their reconciliation. And at the very moment that the lake of fire has completed its job on them, their time in it will end and they can then join the rest of us. 

One thing needs to be understood about any refining process; the material being refined is not allowed to remain in the fire any longer than necessary.  So the lake of fire shall end and all that were subjected to its refinement process shall be purified.  As with the refining process, the purified material is then extracted, reformed and put to its intended use.

"Behold, I reveal to you a secret; We shall not all sleep, [remain in death, some will enjoy the earlier resurrection] but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: [the Consummation of the creation] for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed [made immortal and be like Yahshua].  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality."
(1Co 15:51-53)

"And, having made peace through his blood shed upon the upright torture pole; by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. " (Col 1:20)

No one, after all is at last said and done,  at the consummation of the eons (1Cor 15:24-8); shall be left out.     Not even our great adversary Satan shall be abandoned!  YAHUAH shall complete His plan and become ALL in all

Hallelu YAHUAH! 

 "Wherefore YAHUAH also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Yahshua, [NOT Jesus; he was Hebrew and was given the Hebrew name Yahshua, not the Greek Iesous, which was further altered centuries later to Jesus] AT THE NAME OF YAHSHUA; every knee shall bow; of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth. And every tongue shall joyously declare that Yahshua is Supreme, to the great pleasure of the Father YAHUAH."  (Php 2:9-11)
