Statement of Faith

I believe in the name of Yahshua, for the in the name of Yahshua you have the name of the Creator, Yah, and what the Creator does for us liberate, offer freedom and deliverance, shuva (o[wv.) Yahshua is a combination of the two Hebrew words Yah (3068) and shuva (either 3047 or 7768). Only YHWH can liberate us, from ourselves and from the adversary. Proverbs 20:22. There are plenty of other verses in the Old Testament that show us that there is liberty in the name of YHWH.

There are many stories of Yahshua in the lives of people mentioned in the Old Testament. The first one is Abel and Cain. It is believed by some that Cain and Abel were twins and like most twins and first and second born siblings, the second born is the one chosen by the Creator for greatness. Could it be more than a coincidence that that is the design, a message for us? That Yahshua has an elder brother, Lucifer, who is jealous of him, and so wishes him to be dead.

Here is something peculiar, Abel means vain and Cain means spear. Vain could be a reference to sin and spear could be a reference to the spear that pierces the side of Yahshua upon his death to them that he was dead. Though Abel was righteous (Matt 23:35) he was also vain and so he had to die, so Yahshua was righteous and he took upon himself our sins, so he had to die and a spear was used to show us that he was dead.

Another type of Yahshua pair is Moses and Joshua (Yahshua). Moses represents the first coming of the Messiah, where he rescues us by his death, but he could not take us into the Promised Land, Heaven. Moses means rescued. It is Joshua, who shares the same name as the Messiah in the New Testament, who can take us into liberty in the Promised Land, Heaven.

This is all to say that His name is really not Jesus, but it is Yahshua or at least Joshua.

Pearls in the Mud

When someone does you a kindness, they are giving you a pearl. If you denigrate that pearl, you are throwing that pearl in the mud. If you continue in that practice and the giver sees and hears you do that, they will eventually stop giving you pearls. So, it is not profitable to throw your pearls before swine, who occupy the mud.

Mohammed, Prophet of the Father of the Lies

Mohammed was the prophet of the father of lies, for he used lies to promote his belief and his followers use lies to further his religion. Who else would be in favor of doing things this way, but the father of lies? Read the Koran and you will see that it says it is alright to lie to what it calls infidels. In fact the Koran says that Allah is a great schemer.




The Qur'an:

Qur'an (16:106) - Establishes that there are circumstances that can “compel” a Muslim to tell a lie. “As for anyone who denies God after having once attained to faith and this, to be sure, does not apply to one who does it under duress, the while his heart remain true to his faith, but [only, to] him who willingly opens his heart to a denial of the truth: upon all such [falls] God’s condemnation, and tremendous suffering awaits them.”

Qur'an (3:28) - This verse tells Muslims not to take those outside the faith as friends, unless it is to “guard themselves.” Let not believers take disbelievers as allies rather than believers. "And whoever [of you] does that has nothing with Allah , except when taking precaution against them in prudence. And Allah warns you of Himself, and to Allah is the [final] destination."



Qur'an (9:3) - “…Allah and His Messenger are free from liability to the idolaters…” The dissolution of oaths with the pagans who remained at Mecca following its capture. They did nothing wrong, but were evicted anyway. "And [it is] an announcement from Allah and His Messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage that Allah is disassociated from the disbelievers, and [so is] His Messenger. So if you repent, that is best for you; but if you turn away - then know that you will not cause failure to Allah . And give tidings to those who disbelieve of a painful punishment."



Qur'an (2:225) - “Allah will not call you to account for thoughtlessness in your oaths, but for the intention in your hearts” "Allah does not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in your oaths, but He imposes blame upon you for what your hearts have earned. And Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing."



Qur'an (66:2) - “Allah has already ordained for you, (O men), the dissolution of your oaths” Allah has already ordained for you [Muslims] the dissolution of your oaths. "And Allah is your protector, and He is the Knowing, the Wise."



Qur'an (3:54) - “And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers.” The Arabic word used here for scheme (or plot) is makara, which literally means deceit. If Allah is deceitful toward unbelievers, then there is little basis for denying that Muslims are allowed to do the same. "And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the best of planners."

(See also

8:30 And [remember, O Muhammad], when those who disbelieved plotted against you to restrain you or kill you or evict you [from Makkah]. "But they plan, and Allah plans. And Allah is the best of planners."

and 10:21)

Taken collectively these verses are interpreted to mean that there are circumstances when a Muslim may be “compelled” to deceive others for a greater purpose.



To a Bible believer keeping ones oath is imperative and only a few people have gotten away with a lie, Rahab, the Hebrew midwives to name a few. There are many scriptures that command us to keep our vows and oaths, for in Malachi 1:14 YHWH calls the man who does not keep his vow, accursed. This is starkly different from Allah who will allow a Muslim to not keep his vow. As you can see they allow a little deception even in the translation of their verses., thus proving that Allah is the father of lies.

Stealing from the Creator

Never judge the motives of an individual. Never judge the thoughts of an individual. Why? Because, these are things you can never know for sure what they are. For, you can not read some one’s mind to know what a person is thinking. Only the Creator, the Messiah and Satan can do that and you and I are neither of these.

So, when you start judging the thoughts and motives of someone, you are saying that you are the Creator. You are in effect stealing the position of the Creator from the Creator. This is something you should not do. There are sire consequences for stealing from the Creator. The rest can go without being said.

Dear Sid Roth



I became a Christian in 1972 and then in 1993 I learned that the Torah was for all believers. It was then that I began to keep the feast days and the Saturday Sabbath, and I stopped eating pork and the bad seafood.



Then I met someone who gave me different look at Yahoshua, which caused me to that part of my life on the shelf. Then I read your book. After reading your book, I came away with a new look at Yahoshua HaMoshiach.



During my time of a different look at Yahoshua, I closely examined Judaism and I did not like what I saw. I saw the hypocrisy of Judaism with the Talmud. At the same time I saw the hypocrisy of Christianity, with the mixing of pagan religions with the worship of YHWH.



You probably have noticed that I use Yahoshua instead of Jesus or Yeshua. I feel that Yahoshua is a more accurate translation of His name. If you need a more anglicized translation, you could use Joshua. Here is a look at the hypocrisy that I was talking about. Look at the Septuagint for the Greek spelling of Joshua; now look at the Greek spelling of Jesus. They are the exact same. So, why not use the same word in both spaces. It would help us to see the Joshua is a type of the Messiah, both Joshua the aide of Moses and the high priest Joshua. Yahoshua could mean Yah is our salvation or it could mean Yah save me. Any way you look at it, YHWH’s name is in the name, whereas Jesus and Yeshua are void of the creator’s name.



I also do not use the word god either for the same reason. God is also the name of another deity, the deity of fortune, whatever fortune is (money or luck). Just look at the pronunciation code for “Gad”. It is not gad, but it is gawd, which is similar to the pronunciation code of god, which makes them the same, because when you translate names into other languages, you transliterate them.



Can you see what the enemy has done? He has gotten us to forget and minimize the Creator’s name, which is another way of taking His name in vain. He has made his name vain.



I finally realized that most Christians worship the man Jesus, instead of worshipping the Creator. That is why they still celebrate Christmas, allegedly Yahoshua’s birth. Yahoshua was not born in December. He was born during the feast of Succoth. Birth is an action reserved just for creation, in this case man. The Creator cannot be born and does not need to be born. That is why it is not sanctioned by the Torah, but Succoth is.



Next Easter, which is celebrating Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, but really Easter, which takes it name from Ishtar or Ashtoreth, which are pagan religions is really the celebration of a pagan religion. Death, burying and resurrection are also reserved for only the creation, in this case man. The Creator cannot die, has no need to be buried and be resurrected. That is why Easter is not sanctioned by the Torah, but Passover is.

Finally Sabbath, which I just realized has been altered, because it has been forgotten by Judah Lamentation 2:6. It was forgotten when the Jewish people accepted the new Monday through Sunday Calendar, because before than the Israelites used the moon to decide their days, weeks and months. The moon runs on a seven day cycle.



I would like to know, if you and the rest of these authors in your book still keep Torah and not the worlds teaching, or have they adopted Christmas, Easter and Sunday Sabbath.



Sincerely,



Mark Archer
