The Truth Against The Lie (Vol Two): Vol Two, #2

By Jacob Mathias

The Truth Against The Lie–Helping The World Discover Truth From The Heritage of Our Fathers (Vol 2)

The ancient Israelites particularly our father Abraham bequeathed to us a lasting legacy that must not be left to decay, because salvation, we have been told is of the Jews-John 4:22. It is very unfortunate indeed that the world today has utterly neglected this legacy, and gone their separate ways. The ancient Israelites had a peculiar method of worship and covenant instituted at the time of creation by The Most High. It took them to greater heights and liberated them from the bondage and slavery of Egypt. It is this condition of slavery that the entire world of Christendom has found itself today.

 

In this book, the opening chapter introduces you to the meaning of Law and its relationship to the Bible. It also describes the constituents of the Law as it applies to the basics- Ten Commandments, Statutes, and Judgments. Furthermore, how the Law affected the Patriarchs of old was discussed. Finally, the chapter ended up explaining how it relates to the covenant established by The Most High.

 

Chapter Two starts with a nation Israel as the chief custodian of the Law and Promise. The Most High created man and entrusted in his hands all other creatures. The man was provided with the authority to dominate the universe. So was Israel entrusted with the Laws of HASHEM and the promise of salvation.

 

Chapter Three delves into some of the heretical groups that rose in the heathen world against Israel and its belief system. The influences of those heretics at the time impacted negatively and were meant to destroy Israel and their religious beliefs. Major among these heretical groups is the Marcionites.

 

Chapter Four identifies the Wisdom of the Torah as commanded by The Most High. The significance of practical spiritual wisdom was discussed alongside its classification. With amazing biblical studies, discoveries, and juxtaposing the Law of The Most High and His Wisdom of actions, we aligned them together and thus came the personification of the wisdom as seen in the Man Yahsha ('Yahweh Our Salvation' about human beings). Furthermore, we discussed how one can attain spiritual wisdom and what it teaches Our spiritual fathers of old (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) got that wisdom, worked with it, and bequeathed it to us. The question now is do we imbibe this wisdom or did we develop and discover ours? To that effect, we then compared what we were handed over with what we may have developed or discovered by ourselves.

 

Our comparison brought us to the hunger for the Word of The Most High discussed in Chapter Five. Evidences are bound that the entire Christendom has entirely derailed from this Wisdom and hence a resultant search for a true way of reversion. This return can only be achieved through the embrace of the Sound Doctrine that is been propelled in the true worship arena today encapsulated in studying and obedience to all the Torah requirements. However, in an attempt to do that, we still have the apostate groups whose job is to vie with the converts and tend to steer you away from this truth. Therefore absolute care must be taken to stay strong when you search out the true way as discussed here.

INTRODUCTION

I

n retrospect, I believe our generation is one in continuous search for meaning and existence. With new technology and pressed by questions from the younger among us, our concerns turn increasingly to a search and study for human values, away from the race for yet greater wealth, honor and toward finding greater purpose for our lives.

In reality, many have come to terms with respective stipulations in the Books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes that concern themselves with searches for spiritual meaning to life on earth. A lot more have also come to the resolution that so many things to which they have been exposed, the material and other values, the pleasure principle that has in effect shaped their values in life are but Vanity of vanities.......All is vanity (Eccl. 12: 8).

Like the Book of Ecclesiastes, the contemporary world has been discovering for itself that joy is not covered solely by physical comfort or economic well-being but life is totally hinged on spiritual than physical satisfactions. It is discovering of real purpose that give human beings reason to want to live. In feeling useful and needed in Elohim’s world, man finds happiness. In the Book of Ecclesiastes, it stated, Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: ‘Fear Elohim and keep His Commandments (Laws), for this is the whole duty of man (Ecclesiastes 12:13).

In this book, the opening chapter introduces you to the meaning of Law and it relationship to the Bible. It also describes the constituents of the Law as it applies to the basics- Ten Commandments, Statutes and Judgments. Furthermore, how the Law affected the Patriarchs of old was discussed. Finally, the chapter ended up explaining on how it relates with covenant established by The Most High.

Chapter Two starts with a nation Israel as the chief custodian of the Law and Promise. The Most High created man and entrusted in his hands all other creatures. Man was provided with authority to dominate the universe. So was Israel entrusted with the Laws of HaShem and promise of salvation. Further in the chapter, was clarification on Apostle Paul’s relationships to the Law and his perceived apostasy. The chapter ended with advice to modern day churches to go back to the Hebrew heritage which is the Law (Torah). 

Chapter Three delves on some of the heretical groups that rose up in the heathen world against Israel and their belief system. The influences of those heretics at the time impacted negatively and were meant to destroy Israel and their religious beliefs. Major among these heretical groups is the Marcionites. Further discussion in the chapter, was recourse to the Ancient Paths as written in the book of Jeremiah 6: 16. The Ancient Paths stand as a foundation on which the building rests. The building in this case is the whole Bible we study today. For he or she who believes in the whole Books and epistles of Bible must not be selective. To end the chapter, this book traced the genealogy of Yahsha Messiah to His Jewish origin and hence His religious beliefs and practices which every believer should adopt.

Chapter Four deals with the significance of practical wisdom. It also deals with the class of wisdom, wisdom personified and how to attain genuine spiritual wisdom which is of The Most High. How the wisdom of The Most High teaches and imparted in the lives of our patriarchs were discussed. Finally, the chapter compared the wisdom of word as from The Most High (The Torah) and the wisdom of words from man.  

Chapter Five looked at the solution to the desire, confusion and hunger the entire world is thrown into in their quest for the true words of The Most High. It started with the impacts of Sound Doctrine when one properly absorbs it and ended up with the impact of apostasy when wrongly absorbed.

The world of Christendom is deeply rooted in Hebraic lives and styles, but the neglect and hatred towards this sect of people had given room to multiple searches for seemingly true way to eternity. In the streets of popular cities in the world today, we often notice assorted types of gatherings, gospels preaching and songs, all in the name of finding a true worship. But a careful study of Jewish lives and existence, to be more precise from Abraham the Hebrew, to the mainland Israel and her communities in Diaspora worldwide, would give us a route to follow.

The ancient Israelites bequeathed to us a lasting legacy which must not be left to decay, because salvation, we have been told is of the Jews-John 4:22. It is very unfortunate indeed that the world has utterly neglected this legacy and gone their separate ways. The ancient Israelites had a peculiar method of worship instituted at the time of creation by The Most High. It took them to greater height, liberated them from bondage and slavery. It is this condition of slavery that the entire world of Christendom had found herself today (bondage to Satan and her cohorts). In this book we will explore a way out of this by discovering the truth away from the lies we inherited from our fathers.

CHAPTER ONE

WHAT IS LAW?

L

aw is defined by Webster’s New Encyclopedic dictionary, New Rev. Edition 1996, Page 567 as 1a. "A rule of conduct or action established by custom or lay down by the supreme governing authority of a community, state or nation. 3(capital) a. The revelation of the divine Will set forth in the Old Covenant (b). The first part of the Jewish Scriptures It went down to explain LAW further as imposition by a sovereign authority and obligation of obedience by all".

The Relationship of Law to Bible

From the above definitions, we could understand that the LAW is related to Old Covenant (Testament) Books and requires total obedience by all mankind. This is evidenced in the Book of Deut. 4:44-45 which states, Now this is the Law which Moses set before the children of Israel. These are the Testimonies (Ten Commandments); Statutes and the Judgments which Moses spoke to the children after they came out of Egypt. According to the above mentioned dictionary, Statutes was defined as, A Law enacted by a legislative body often distinguished from the common Law.

In some portions of the Bible these three arms are referred to as just the Law according to John 1:17 which says, For the Law was given through Moses, but mercy and truth came through Yahsha Messiah. In John 7:19 it says, Do not Moses give you the Law, yet none of you keeps the Law? Why do you seek to kill me?

In Deut. 33:4 the writer says, Moses commanded a Law for us, a heritage of the congregation (assembly) of Israel. Elsewhere in the bible
