| THE TRUTH ABOUT THE GODHEAD | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Yahweh is our Heavenly Father. He is the Supreme Being; He is Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent. He created the universe and all it contains. He owns the ground you walk on and the air you breathe and the body that you live in. We are very fortunate that He is a good and merciful being that takes no delight in the death of the wicked, but would rather that all men come to repentance. “God’s name is YAH. The mystery attached to the Name of the Almighty, is related to the verb ‘to be' (I am, I was, I will be) which is the Hebrew verb ‘Hoveh’ (the ‘v’ pronounced as in ‘victory’), meaning “to be”, in the present tense. YHVH therefore, means: “YAH Hoveh”, which means “YAH is ...” (YAH being His abbreviated (actual?) name as reflected in Psalm 68:4 in some translations. ‘It is therefore quite possible that the correct rendering of the SH'MAH (the Greatest Commandment - Deut 6:4) should therefore read: SHMAA YISRAEL YAH HOVEH ELOHEINU YAH HOVEH ECHAD HEAR ISRAEL YAH IS OUR GOD YAH IS ONE “Biblical Revelations” We have no provable knowledge of the original vowels, if any, that were used in this name. This being the case, debate over the correct pronunciation is futile, not to mention divisive. The most commonly used names are, of course, YHVH, YHWH, Yahweh, Yehovah and Jehovah, this last one being a real stretch considering that there was not a letter “J” until the 16th century, and there is still no letter “J” in Hebrew. One point of interest is the fact that the current Pope Benedict, on August 8, 2008, forbade the use of the Tetragram (Yahweh) in Catholic Churches. If the name Yahweh doesn't matter, why is this such an issue? It is worthy of note that the best description of Yahweh given in the scripture is in Exodus 37:7-9, where we find the Ark of the Covenant. The top was the mercy seat and on each end was covering Cherubim made of gold. In between these two was where the Spirit of Yahweh appeared. It is my belief that these two winged celestial beings represented Yahweh’s two wives, Satan and Sophia. It is now known that Satan rebelled against Yahweh and became the being today known as Lucifer. Sophia of course did not rebel and is now called the Holy Spirit. I believe that Sophia and Satan were with Yahweh and took part in the creation of mankind at the beginning of creation. The Holy Spirit (Sophia) is the tenderness and mercy of Yahweh manifest. You already know what Satan is all about. We find the creation of Satan in Ezekiel 28:12-19, “This is what the Father Yahweh says: You were the seal of the full measure of perfection, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. You were in Eden, the garden of Yahweh; every precious stone was your covering; the ruby, the topaz, the emerald, the chrysolite, the onyx, the jasper, the sapphire, the turquoise and the beryl. The workmanship of your settings and mountings were made of gold. In the day you were created, they were prepared for you. You were the guardian Cherub and I married you on the holy mountain of Yahweh; you have walked up and down in the stones of fire. You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until iniquity; sin, was found in you by the multitude of your merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned. Therefore, I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of Yahweh; and I will destroy you from the midst of the stones of fire, O guardian Cherub. Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, and you have corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. I will cast you to the ground. I will lay you before kings, so that they may behold you. You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities; sin, and by the iniquity of your trading. Therefore, I will bring forth the fire from the midst of you; and I will bring you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who behold you. All who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you; you will come to a terrifying end…” The book of Yahweh In Proverbs, 8:22-31 – We find the creation of Sophia. "The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old. Ages ago I was set up (Married) at the first before the beginning of the earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth; before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world. When He established the fountains of the deep, when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth, THEN I WAS BESIDE HIM, AND I WAS DAILY HIS DELIGHT, REJOICING BEFORE HIM ALWAYS, REJOICING IN HIS INHABITED WORLD(S) AND DELIGHTING IN THE SONS OF MEN.” She is a gift from Yahweh poured out on mankind and is known as the Holy Spirit. Just as Yahweh took from Adam (man) to make Eve (woman), He took from himself to make Sophia. Before all creation, she was brought forth from Yahweh, and so she stood by His side to help Him in our creation. She is submissive to Yahweh because He brought her forth, but their union is one that is so perfect there is no need for a set of laws in her behalf. To us He is Yahweh, our Heavenly Father, She is Sophia, our Heavenly Mother; together they are our creators. Sophia is the mercy and gentleness of Yahweh. She came softly as the Heavenly Dove upon the Lord Y'shua at his baptism and said, "this is my son in whom I am well pleased". Sophia is in the earth to redeem her children, us. The Scriptures say that the Heavens suffer violence because of the fall of mankind. I believe that even the union of Yahweh and of Sophia has suffered pain because of Yahweh’s necessity of separation from the evil and of Her necessity of saving Her children. What a horror we have accomplished with our rebellion against Yahweh’s laws and our subsequent expulsion from the Heavens. It is well said that somehow we left home and forgot our Mother. Pro.8:1, "Doth not wisdom cry? And understanding put forth her voice?” 1 Enoch 42:1, “Wisdom found no place where she could dwell; her dwelling therefore is in heaven” Eph. 3:14-15, “For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord (Y'shua), of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. The Book of wisdom, chap. 7 -” For wisdom (Sophia) is more moving than any motion: she passeth and goeth through all things by a reason of her pureness. For she is the breath of the power of Yahweh, and a pure influence flowing from the glory of the Almighty: therefore can no defiled thing fall into her. For she is the brightness of the everlasting light, the unspotted mirror of the power of Yahweh, and the image of his goodness. And being but one, she can do all things: and in all ages entering into holy souls, she maketh them friends of Yahweh, and prophets. For Yahweh loveth none but him that dwelleth with Sophia.” All manner of blasphemy against Yahweh is forgiven men except blasphemy of the Holy Spirit meaning that there is a definite difference between Yahweh the Father and the Holy Spirit. Isaiah 48:16, “Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord Yahweh, AND his Spirit, has sent me.” Here we have two sending Y'shua to the earth. Psalms, 51:11 “Cast me not away from thy presence; AND take not thy Holy Spirit from me.” Here we have Yahweh’s presence AND Holy Spirit mentioned together.” Luke 11:13 “If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?” John 14:16, “I will ask the Father and He will give you another Helper, who will stay with you forever.” John 14:26, “The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you.” Most of the intercession that we find in the Bible, that has been attributed to the pagan Jesus, was in fact referring to the Holy Sprit (Sophia). The gift that we call speaking in tongues is nothing more than the Holy Spirit interceding through us to Yahweh. In 2 Cor. 13:14, we find, "The grace (gift) of the Lord (Y'shua), and the love of Yahweh, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen." Wisdom - 9:7 “And thy counsel who hath known, except thou give Sophia, and send thy Holy Spirit from above?” 1 John 3:24, "And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us." “Matthew 11:19; Luke 7:35) "Wisdom is known by her children ("Therefore also said the Wisdom of Yahweh, I will also send them prophets and apostles . . ." (Luke 11:49). In this text our Lord is equating the "Wisdom of Yahweh" with the Holy Spirit who provided Divine inspiration to those who wrote the Scriptures, 2 Peter 1:21. He refers to Wisdom in the feminine gender. "Proverbs 9:1"Wisdom has built a house for herself, and set up seven pillars” 'The Old Testament word for "wisdom" is chokmah which has the feminine ending. 'The connection between the Holy Spirit and Sophia is more pronounced in the Apocrypha. The Apocrypha are writings from the Intertestamental Period which was contained in the Septuagint but are not included in many of our modern Bibles. ‘In the writings of the Early Church, Wisdom (Sophia) is preserved as feminine (e.g. the Shepherd of Hermes) ‘(Y'shua) associates the "spirit of truth" with the Holy Spirit (John 16:13). Sophia and the Holy Spirit share identical roles (1Corinthians 2:7-11; Romans 5:5; Were it not for the masculine bias of later theologians, the Church would likely have acknowledged the allegorical associations in the Old Testament as literal theophanies of the Holy Spirit. ‘That the Holy Spirit is the designated representation of the feminine principle is further supported by the Hebrew word for "spirit". I quote now Jerome, the author of the Latin Vulgate: In the Gospel of the Hebrews that the Nazarenes read it says, "Just now my mother, the Holy Spirit, took me." Now no one should be offended by this, because "spirit" in Hebrew is feminine, while in our language (Latin) it is masculine and in Greek it is neuter. - Jerome's Commentary on Isaiah 11 ‘This explanation contains an astonishing admission. First, it tells us that there was a tradition among a sect of Early Christians which believed that the Holy Spirit was our Lord's spiritual mother. Second, Jerome - a more orthodox figure cannot be imagined – admits that the Hebrew word for "spirit" (ruach) is feminine, meaning that for the 1st Century Christians - who were largely operating in the Aramaic world (Paul's churches were tiny in comparison) - the Holy Spirit was a feminine figure. It was lost in the translation from the Hebrew into the Greek, and then it was changed to a masculine gender when it was translated from the Greek into the Latin.” Grailchurch "... At the Council of Nice, (Nicea 325 A.D.) says the author of 'Nimrod,' 'The Melchite section' - that is, the representatives of the so-called Christianity of Egypt - 'held that there were three persons in the Trinity, The Father, the Virgin Mary, and Messiah their Son.'..." "...This astounding language manifestly implies that Mary is identified with the Holy Spirit, when it speaks of her 'being poured out' on 'all the works of Yahweh;’ The Two Babylons (p. 144) Alex. Hislop Loizeaux Brothers Neptune N.J. 1916 We find these three pagan deities under different names throughout history: Babylonian: Nimrod Semiramus - The Dove Osiris Old Testament: Baal Queen of Heaven - Saran Tammuz Catholic Trinity: The Father Mary - The Dove The Son (Also see Jer. 7:1-20; Ezek. 8:14-15; Jer. 44:17-27; Gen. 10:8-10; Rev. 18:2-5; Judges 2:13-14; 1 Kings 18:21-22.) . See “The Two Babylon’s” By Alexander Hislop for an in depth study on The Pagan Deities. If Sophia was not real why has Semiramus (Isis-Diana-Asherah) tried to usurp her position? Also the Catholic “Mary” tries to take her place by also claiming to be the Holy Spirit, The Heavenly Dove. While we acknowledge that Y'shua was present at the re-creation of the earth, he is not equal with Yahweh or Sophia since they spoke him and us into existence in the original creation. However, he is a deity just as we were before our fall, as Y'shua himself call us gods in John 10:34. It is also written that when we see Y'shua we will be like him. See “Who is the Messiah” on our website. If Yahweh is the father of all creation then Sophia and Satan are the mothers of all creation. The Jews would tolerate no thought of female anything in the Godhead. The Catholics have corrupted the scriptures to promote the old pagan teaching of the trinity. Both of these have culminated in hiding the knowledge of Sophia and Satan from mankind. WE FIND, THEN, THAT THERE IS ONE, AND ONLY ONE, TRUE ALMIGHTY GOD AND HIS NAME IS YAHWEH AND ALL THAT EXIST CAME FROM HIM. |
