The Daily Word of Righteousness

You Are My People, #4

And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. (Revelation 19:1,2)

Let us mention a few of the corrupting elements of the Gentile version of the Jewish Gospel of the Kingdom of God, the Gospel of Christ. When the Spirit of God is poured out on Israel in the days to come, the rabbis and other scholars must reject these corrupting elements as being completely out of harmony with almighty God's plan of redemption for the Jewish people as well as for the elect Gentiles.

The Roman Catholic Church and the Protestant denominations. The Protestant denominations are the "daughters" of the Catholic Church. All of these institutions, great and small, have the same spirit. The blood of the martyrs is found in them. While there are many true saints of God in the Catholic and Protestant denominations, the organizations themselves are temporary human efforts to meet administrative and other institutional needs.

Many denominations, sooner or later, will attempt to murder the prophets whenever God begins to move, and will prove to be an enemy of the Jews. Denominations are not of the Kingdom and shall be swept away in the Day of the Lord.

The veneration of the virgin Mary is not related in any manner to the Gospel of Christ. The worship of the mother and child, the "holy family," is characteristic of some twenty or more pagan religions. It goes back to ancient times and was introduced into primitive Christianity in the Roman Empire by religionists in the hope of gaining adherents.

In the day of Israel's visitation, the rabbis and their congregations must have nothing whatever to do with the Christian organizations.

The concept of Divine grace, under the new covenant, as being a waiver of God's requirement that people practice righteousness, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. Perhaps the greatest error of all has been the interpretation of the Gospel of Christ as a Divine amnesty unrelated to the behavior of the believer. Instead of the grace of God being the Divine Virtue given to men to transform them morally, grace is viewed by the majority of Christians as a magic "ticket" to Paradise where they may rest forever in golden mansions. How can a Jew who is versed in the Hebrew Scriptures relate to this?

The current definition of grace has destroyed the moral character of today's believers. The light of the world is nonexistent. The so-called Christian nations are wallowing in immorality while the churches speak of being carried to Paradise. It is, as we have stated, a twentieth-century form of the ancient heresy, Gnosticism (salvation comes through knowledge).

The new covenant is the writing of the Torah on the mind and heart of the believer. Because Gentiles are ignorant of the Torah they cannot grasp what the new covenant is. One seldom if ever hears a Christian minister say anything at all about the Law being written on the mind and heart. Gentiles cannot understand the Divine redemption because it is addressed to Jews.

In the day of Israel's visitation, the rabbis and their congregations must have nothing whatever to do with Christian "grace" as currently defined.

To be continued.
