Shalom, shalom my precious friends & family – saints of the Most-High Elohim of Israel,
Here are the notes to the most recent revival service held at Hard Road Ministries on 2/20/2021
Here is the link to the revival message I was led to share…
I referenced the following in the message I preached…
Battle of the Bible translations – – – Was your personal Bible translated by blood drinking, child raping, baby-sacrificing, black-magic practitioners or by the saints of the Most-High Elohim – whose name is Yah?
The documentation found in this Amazing Discovery’s video will provide you with the answer that just might surprise, shock & even sadden you. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcGrkNRb9lI
Did you know that there are 22 promises of the Most-High Elohim – which can ONLY be fulfilled in & through our seasons of suffering? Every promise of His Word is “Yes”! & “Amein!” – even when we have to suffer to know His promises are forever true!
Did you know there are four different temples – which have been built in Jerusalem on Mt. Zion (from the very foundations) – from the time of king Solomon to the time of king Herod – which was built over 46 years from 20/19 B.C. – 26/27 A.D. and was only completed in the year Yahoshua cleansed it the first year of His ministry – as recorded in John chapter 2. I was completely AMAZED and OVERWHELMED with GREAT joy when I read the modern day classic – “The Temples Jerusalem Forgot”.
The same author wrote – “The Secrets of Golgotha” – which I also referenced in the message I brought on 02/20. You cannot understand the fullness of “the mystery of the cross” if you do not understand the sacrifices of the tabernacle and later the four temples. This single book revolutionized my understanding of the Passover of A.D. 30 and I was blessed beyond measure to have read it for the first time in 2003. May you be equally blessed in your increased understanding of “why” the cross to redeem Israel and “whosoever” will!
Towards the end of the message – I referenced the 613 commands found in the Torah – from Genesis to Deuteronomy. Here is a thought provoking message to further clarify why the Messiah of Israel not only did not obey all 613 commands – it would have been a transgression of the covenant to do so because more than half of the commands were not applicable to Him.
Finally, I NEVER got to the actual message I intended to bring forth – answering the 2 questions I posed multiple times throughout the message.
Question #1 Can you perfectly trust your Bible and is your Bible the perfectly preserved Word of Elohim? NO! – You cannot perfectly trust the Bible – in ANY translation – and no there is NO perfect Bible translation – period!! –
HOWEVER, you can trust the perfect, inerrant Words of Scripture perfectly preserved by the King of the Universe! Note: If you believe YOUR Bible translation can be perfectly trusted and is without error or contradiction – then feel free to write me and tell me why you believe it is free from all fault and perfect in every way and I will be more than happy in all sincerity and humility to share with you the very specific and exact reason why it’s not perfect and can’t be perfectly trusted. If you can prove your translation is the perfectly preserved Scriptures – as originally recorded – then I will personally reward you with 10k in cash or silver!
However, before you do… Let me take the time to answer the 2nd question I posed to you… Is Jesus Christ the true, prophesied Messiah of Israel, the Word made flesh and the soon coming righteous Judge and King?
NO! – The Jesus of Christendom / Christianity is NOT the Messiah prophesied in the Scriptures, He is NOT the Word made flesh and He is NOT the soon coming righteous Judge and king of Kings – much less the Husband coming to take His bride forever!!
Confused??!!! I’m not surprised at all. I was very much confused to when I first heard this revelation. Please be patient with me and you will soon “discover” a mystery revealed from Genesis – Revelation and yet completely veiled to the minds and hearts who read, study, preach & teach the Good News of Jesus Christ – ready to be revealed in our generation!
On June 19th, 2020 – my wife (& best friend) Jenn McDuffie and I began a new chapter of our lives, which has led us both to experience the single greatest revival of our lives, the of the restoration of all things that were lost and true witnesses that He alone is making all things new and showing us great and mighty things that we did not know!
We seriously thought we were only signing up for a diet / weight loss plan to lose weight. We had no idea we were in all reality beginning the greatest adventure of our lives – which if you really know us – then you know – is neither an exaggeration or hyperbolic expression and is actually a really HUUGGGEEEE statement!
We had no idea whatsoever what we were actually about to experience was a direct-answer to many, many prayers & fasting and personal revival and the best health either one of us have ever known over most of our adult lives! We have better sustained energy, vitality, and health today than we’ve ever had as a married couple over the last 12 years. Hallelu-YAH!
I began to write this series of obedience versus legalism in March 2011. I had no earthly idea when I wrote the first short article that I would later write two more articles in this series in March 2012 and February 2017 – respectively. Neither did I ever think there was anything more worth writing about the subject of “choosing life”…
…because I honestly, foolishly thought that I had exhausted the subject! I did not know that, “THE BEST WAS YET TO COME & IS STILL YET TO COME!” And that the biggest missing “piece-of-the-puzzle” of my personal journey in pursuit of the truth was going to be revealed by our decision to say, “Yes!” to a “diet plan” my wife’s childhood friend introduced us to in the beginning of June 2020.
A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORICAL CONTEXT
At the time we began our personal health journey we were both very obese and the heaviest either of us had ever been in our lives. We tell people we had put on the “Covid-19”, the “Fresh-men 15” & all the teens in between! LOL! But seriously, my wife had lost her dad unexpectedly in the summer of 2019. Then my sister, Suzanne – was missing for more than 100 days and Jenn greatly helped to look for her and coordinate the search effort – until we received the news her remains were found on March 7th, 2020. *
Of course, that was the time all the craziness with the constant C-19 fear mongering began to take over everything and the world was turned completely upside down! Shortly after this devastating blow, two of our daughters completely turned their backs on the one true faith delivered once and for all to the saints and began practicing “the craft” of their mother.
During this season, they both completely cut us off and we were also cut off from any contact or meaningful relationship from our firstborn granddaughter (whom we had practically helped raise for almost three full years and carried all around the world with us)! Needless-to-say, Jenn and I were very broken by all these “sudden” losses we experienced over less than 12 months of our lives.
Shortly after we began our “diet”, I began to notice I had much improved energy and then after 30 days we had lost a combined total of 55 pounds! In less than 90 days we had lost a combined total of 100 pounds and as I am writing this, we are down a combined 190 pounds weight lost forever in less than 8 months! Somewhere along the way – I had an epiphany of understanding – I had never experienced!
(Update – 230lbs. total! – as of 11-22-2022)
THE TREE OF LIFE – IS REVELATION FROM ON HIGH
I received a revelation from on High that I had NEVER experienced before! It was a revelation of LIFE! It was a revelation from the Word of Life, by the Spirit of Life and Life Himself! For the first time in my life, I finally understood that…
EVERY single decision I make in the thoughts I choose to think in my life is either for life or death and is presently producing a harvest of blessing or curse.
EVERY single decision I make in the words that I am speaking are either life or death and are presently, actively producing a harvest of life or death – blessing or curse in my life!
EVERY single decision I make for what I am doing with my time and life (or even not doing with my time and life) is either for life or death and are presently, actively producing a harvest of life or death – blessing or curse in my life! EVERY single decision I make concerning what I eat and drink is either for life or death and is either presently, actively producing LIFE and health in my body or DEATH and decay.
I have read, memorized and quoted the following Scripture for most of my life and I NEVER understood what it meant until this season of my life. I was deaf, blind and dumb – with little to no understanding!
“Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the esteem of Elohim.” ~ 1Corinthians 10:31
Here is my personal testimony – which I have shared very publicly in recent days…
MY HEALTH JOURNEY
They say a picture is worth a thousand words…
The guy in the top picture (on the right of my wife was pretty comfortable with choosing death on a daily basis – it’s the way he was taught… – by his family first, by his community of faith, by his schools, by his government, by his community where he lives, by his daily media consumption & by his doctors .
Literally, almost everybody in that guys life taught him how to choose death by their words & actions and poor health & sickliness were the result. I mostly felt like poop 5-6 days a week – even as a teenager!
Then one day in early June a total stranger came into my life by divine appointment and taught me how to choose life in every single decision I make. He was a stranger to me before – but now he is becoming one of my closest and dearest friends – Jason Haire
He has coached me and taught me the spirit of choosing LIFE in every single choice I make! He introduced me to the guy on the left! His life and example is the reason I decided to become a health coach and “pay it forward”!
One of the greatest take-aways of the journey my wife and I have been on the last 2 & 1/2 years is we are both on a journey of learning the spirit of choosing life in every life decision that pertains to this life and the life to come! The law of blessings & curses and sowing & reaping are literally in the DNA of every single choice we make throughout each day! Everyday, we get to choose LIFE or DEATH!
I have a great vision to share this journey of renewed health & life & love & freedom with the whole wide world! First with my Jerusalem, Judea & Samaria and then to the uttermost parts of the earth!
CHOOSE LIFE!!!!!!! CHOOSE FREEDOM!!!!!!!
It would be my greatest honor to be your personal health coach and to share with you freely what I received freely and thus loving my neighbor as myself and fulfilling the commandment!
FREE! FREE! FREE! 100% FREE! FREE! FREE! *

I want to be your personal health coach! Whether your skinny or fat, healthy or unhealthy, need to lose 15 lbs or 150lbs – EVERYONE needs a heath coach! I want to help you level up in your health and take it to the next level!
My personal health coach Jason Haire did not charge me a dime to coach my wife and I over the last 30 months! * In ONLY 30 weeks we have lost 190 pounds (combined) FOREVER and we have received a renewed lease on our health and our life and our love life and our ministry life and EVERYTHING that makes life worth living! I literally owe this man my LIFE!!!

You can see the results in this picture. Thank you to everyone who has celebrated with me along the way. I couldn’t have done it without you all!
QUESTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION, DELIBERATION, MEDITIATION & SALVATION
If I “Choose Life” – what am I NOT choosing by default?
If I “Choose Death” – what am I NOT choosing by default?
If I “Choose Life” – then who am I following?
If I “Choose Death” – then who am I following?
If I choose death, e.g. processed white table salt, processed white baking flour & bread, processed white sugar (which is scientifically proven to be a more addictive and deadly drug than crack cocaine), battery acid cleaner (i.e. Coca-Cola), etc., – then I am not choosing life am I?
If I am presently, actively “choosing death” in what I eat and/or drink can I honestly say I am following the Giver of Life, according to the example given us by the Word of Life made flesh, as revealed in the Scriptures of Life and taught by the Spirit of Life?
CONCLUSION
On June 19th, 2020, I honestly thought I was only starting a diet program for my wife and I to lose weight – together. I had no idea the real purpose of our journey was for us to learn “the mystery” of the ages…
Every single choice we make is “the seed’ which contains the DNA of the harvest we will always and eventually reap. No farmer on the face of the earth will answer, “I do not know” when asked what kind of food crops they expect to harvest. They ALL know exactly what they planted in the ground and they all know exactly what they are going to harvest!
My wife’s father Sydney Norwood was a fifth generation Arkansas farmer. I would say to him, “Dad, if anyone should understand living faith and the law of sowing and reaping it’s all the hard-working men and women who slave to produce our food supply all over the world.” What I spoke was the truth – however, I was mostly completely ignorant to what I was saying.
Today, I truly understand that ALL my thoughts today, ALL my words today, everything I do (or don’t do) today and ALL that I eat and drink today – will produce a harvest of life or a harvest of death – a harvest of blessings or a harvest of curses. The author of the letter to the Galatians says it this way…
“Be not deceived; Elohim is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”~ Galatians 6:7-9
Every choice has consequences! The consequences of everything we think, say, do, eat & drink are 100% self-evident to ourselves and to all those around us. The command to, “Choose Life” is the entire message of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation!
Before the fall – “Choose Life!” –
“And Elohim blessed them, and Elohim said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” ~ Genesis 1:28
“And Yahweh Elohim took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.”~ Genesis 2:15
When the eternal marriage covenant was codified, placed to music and proclaimed by Moses to “the goy” children of Israel in the plains of Moab before they crossed into “The Promised Land” – “Choose Life!” –
“For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. It is not in Heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to Heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it. See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil; In that I command thee this day to love YHWH thy Elohim, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and YHWH thy Elohim shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it. I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love YHWH thy Elohim, and that thou mayest obey His voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for He is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which YHWH sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.” ~ Deuteronomy 30:11-20
After the restoration of all things – “Choose Life!”
“And He shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of Elohim and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” ~ Revelation 22:2-3
“And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if YahwehbeElohim, follow Him(“Choose Life!”): but if Baal, then follow him (“Choose Death!”). ~ 2Kings 18:21
Whom are you following presently? Whom will you follow forever?
AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE
Though none go with me – still I will follow
Though none go with me – still I will follow
Though none go with me – still I will follow
I’ll go with Him, with Him – all the way…
I shared this message about the simplicity of “Choosing Life!” as a guest speaker at a local assembly’s mid-weekly Bible study in S.W., Florida. May you blessed in your hearing!
UNPACKING THE MYSTERY OF GRACE – as revealed in John 8:1-11
Most of us 21st century believers were taught that the first-century account of the woman caught in the act of adultery is first-hand, exhibit-A evidence that we are no longer “under the law” but “under grace”. However, if we re-examine the evidence in light of the context of first century Jerusalem and “Old Testament” Scriptures – we just might come to a very different understanding and conclusion of exactly what happened almost 2,000 years ago.
Here are three notable reasons why.
1. ALL AUTHORITY IS ESTABLISHED BY YAHWEH ELOHIM – Romans 13:1
The scribes and Pharisees seditiously, subverted the authority of the Word of Yahweh!
Yahoshua had no authority to answer the scribes and Pharisees in this matter – according to the Word of Yahweh!
According to the Scriptures – all capital punishment cases had to be heard by a Supreme Court headquartered in Jerusalem – which was to be made up of Levites and priests of the Levites only! Yahoshua was from the tribe of Judah and did not qualify to sit on the court of the 70 rulers of the Sanhedrin in first-century Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:8-13)
The scribes and Pharisees who were trying / testing Yahoshua knew that only the Sanhedrin had the authority to try cases of adultery in first-century Judah. However, they did not care about Yahweh’s established authority. All they cared about was seditiously, subverting the ministry and authority trusted to Yahoshua by His Father. They were trying Him in a very similar way which He was tried three times by the Devil in the wilderness.
In their zeal to destroy the ministry and authority of Yahoshua – they were in fact destroying the direct authority of the Word of Yahweh and His delegated authority in the Supreme Court of Yisrael.
Yahoshua walked in submission to His Father’s authority and therefore walked in authority. He ignored those trying Him because he knew their question was completely illegitmiate – as He had no authority to answer them!
2. FROM THE BEGINNING – MEN ARE REBELLING AGAINST YAHWEH’S ESTABLISHED AUTHORITY – THE SCRIPTURES – 1John 3:4
The Pharisees and scribes further destroyed the established authority of the Word of Yahweh – by transgressing His command!
Did you ever wonder what it was that Yahoshua wrote in the dirt with His finger? While the Scripture doesn’t say – I could hazard a worthwhile guess that would be consistent with Yahoshua’s nature and character and the context of the account.
Deuteronomy 22:22 commands that the man and woman caught in the act of adultery be put to death – (after they have been tried and were found guilty of course)!
“If a man is found lying with the wife of another man, both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman. So you shall purge the evil from Israel.”
The misogynistic, sexist Pharisees and scribes only brought the woman caught in the act of adultery. If they caught her “in the very act” – then how come they didn’t bring the man too? Could it be they were “good buddies” with the other adulterer and that’s why they all knew about the affair and didn’t bring him before Yahoshua as well?
Regardless of their reason – they transgressed the commandment of Yahweh by only accusing the woman – when it takes two to commit adultery. If I were a betting man – I would place my money on Deut. 22:22 as the Scripture Yahoshua wrote in the dirt.
As they sought to justify their sin(s) – they continued to press Him in the matter and so He then stood up and uttered the famous / infamous words – “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.”
In the context of this account – everyone of the adulteress’ present accusers where presently committing two grievous sins!
First, they did not go to the proper authority established by Yahweh to accuse the woman. Second, they did not bring the man along to be accused too! They were all in sin because they all transgressed the law of Yahweh and sin always has and always be transgressing the law (i.e. covenant) of Yahweh! (1John 3:4)
Rebellion / Sedition against the established Supreme Court of Yahweh was also a capital offense punishable by death and all the woman’s accusers were guilty of sedition. (Deut. 17:8-13)
3. YAHOSHUA CAME TO RESTORE MEN TO A COVENANT RELATIONSHIP WITH YAHWEH – Luke 9:56, Luke 1910
Yahoshua restored the authority of the eternal covenant to the adulterous woman.
When He bent down and He wrote in the dirt again a second time – what do you suppose He wrote? Once again, if we look at the context of the story – it doesn’t take too much imagination to guess what He wrote. I refuse to be dogmatic – however, Scripture seems to answer with Scripture.
Immediately before this event recorded in John 8:1-11 – we read about Yahoshua standing up and proclaiming the following eternal truth on the last day of the feast, the Great Day, with a very loud voice,
“If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’ ” – John 7:37-38
In light of the reality that the scribes and Pharisees rejected Yahoshua as the “fountain of living water” – just maybe He wrote Jeremiah 17:13 in the dirt.
“O Yahweh, the hope of Israel, all who forsake You shall be put to shame; those who turn away from Me shall be written in the earth, for they have forsaken Yahweh, the fountain of living water.”
By hearing the Word of Yahweh the second time – all the men’s conscience was pricked and from the oldest to the youngest they all left. After the last man left – Yahoshua asked the woman about her accusers.
When she replied they had all left – Yahoshua responded that He did not condemn her either. There are two very good, sound and Scriptural reasons why He did not not condemn her. First, he was not a witness to her adultery and second, he did not sit on the Supreme Court of the land. He did not have any authority whatsoever to accuse her!
He restored the woman to Yahweh’s favor / grace by commanding the woman to return to the eternal covenant Yahweh established with Yisrael. He restores us today – with the exact same admonition!
The only way to be restored to the covenant when we have sinned unto death is to confess our known sin(s) and forsake them. This is not new – it is only true! King David and King Ahab both sinned – sins worthy of death. Scripture does not record any sacrifices required or made for any of the approximate three dozen sins unto death.
There is NO ATONEMENT or SACRIFICES for sins unto death anywhere in the Jewish or Christian Scriptures! The only remedy recorded anywhere in Scripture for sins unto death is humbling oneself and confession and repentance with a contrite heart.
Yahweh is good and He is merciful and His goodness and mercy are before the foundation of the world and will never cease to exist. His mercy and grace did not begin with the cross of our Savior – it always was and always will be.
In the history of Yisrael – all those accused of sins unto death were granted mercy – if they humbly acknowledged their sins and asked for forgiveness with a contrite heart. Upon receiving forgiveness it was expected the sinner would return to the covenant and leave behind their sin(s) unto death. E.g. King David (2Samuel 11) & King Ahab (1Kings 21)
This is the mystery of the grace of Yahweh – as revealed in John 8:1-11!
According to Scripture (2Kings 17) – the 1st century Samaritans were Gentiles who essentially practiced the exact same religion as the Jews with one notable exception.
The descendants of the first-century Samaritans are still living in Mt. Garazim today and they read their handwritten torah scroll in the ancient Paleo Hebrew – which they copied by hand throughout the generations.
It reads pretty much the same as our Torah today – except the 4th commandment reads – “Thou shalt worship at Mt. Garazim!” No wonder the Jews who worshipped at Jerusalem and the Samaritans who worshipped at Mt. Garazim could not get along and even openly despised one another.
They essentially practiced the exact same religion – except for this one sticking point and since the Samaritans had technically been in the land longer than the Jews (who were displaced in captivity for 70 years) they naturally believed they were in the right.
It would be kind of like the British coming over here and telling us why parliament is a superior form of government. After all we’ve all been here living under the constitutional form of government of three separate but equal branches since 1781.
As a believer in Yahweh and a follower of Scripture the Samaritan woman most likely was redeemed by 5 kinsman and then the 6th redeemer had his house in order (like the nearest kinsman in the story of Ruth) and that is probably why he didn’t marry her even though he provided for her. If his house was in order with his inheritance – he legally couldn’t marry her.
In the middle eastern cultural it is highly unlikely that she was the Liz Taylor of the community. Women had very little value or worth in the first century middle eastern cultural – as every Bible scholar knows.
If you think this is far fetched – there is an account in the apocryphal writings (which used to be in all Protestant and Baptist KJV bibles until around 1850) about a woman who was redeemed 7 times! Also, the Sadducees asked the Messiah about a woman who had 7 husbands and whose wife would she be at the resurrection.
Covenantally, 5 is the number of favor and by favor this righteous woman received 5 husbands. 6 is the number of man and his fallen nature and the 6th redeemer could not possibly redeem her. Yahoshua came into her life as the complete and perfect kinsman redeemer! 7 is representative of perfection and completion!
If you still think this is far fetched – consider “when confronted with her great moral failure” she didn’t seek to justify herself at all nor did she express any remorse – which would have been the most natural thing to do. Instead she acknowledged Yahoshua was operating in the prophetic calling and asked the most pressing theological question of her generation – whose 4th commandment was correct? Who had the correct Bible translation – the Jews or the Samaritans?
Also, consider that the elders at the gates willingly followed her without question and believed her report that the Messiah had come! That is their exact testimony! Would they have really believed her if she was a known “sinner” and not a righteous and respected woman of their community?
Now that we know who the woman at the well is from Scripture and not vain speculative imagination – consider…
1. She was not saved – but was looking for the Savior and Redeemer – whom she knew she needed! She was not saved because only those who humbled themselves to join with the covenant with the house of Yisrael were / are saved!
2. The men of the city and many of the people believed on Him! Everyone must come to Him and believe on Him – personally! No one can enter into the kingdom on “borrowed” faith.
3. Even though they recognized Him as the Messiah they did not submit to Him as Lord!
Luke 9:51-56 tells us that the Samaritans were upset because they refused to obey and go to Jerusalem for the Passover of His passion and Yahoshua would not condone / bless their disobedience of continuing to worship Yahweh falsely at Mt. Garazim and not according to truth at Mt. Zion!
In other words – they wanted Him to conform to their vain imagination of obedience (the religious traditions of men) than actual obedience to the Word of Yahweh! Not much has changed since then – universally, most of us are still pretty much doing the same thing. We worship Yahweh according to the vain traditions we have learned from our fathers and the truth of the Scriptures all mixed together.
Finally, in response to their disobedience – James and John wanted to kill these Samaritans even though they were almost identical in their belief system – with only one major difference! They even believed in the same Messiah!
In reality, these 2 rival religious factions had more in common than the Southern Baptist and the Assemblies of God today and yet they hated each other. How about us today? Do we dislike other children of Yahweh just because they believe differently than us?
Yahoshua taught us to be merciful as He is merciful! If we can’t show mercy to fellow believers when their theology differs from our own – what does that say about us and our character? Is our fellowship based on the perfect blood of Messiah or the very flawed and imperfect theological systems of men?
Is your heart toward fellow believers who believe differently than you like James and John or like the Messiah?
Right before He ascended to Heaven – His final instructions to the Messiah was not to forget to go back to the Samaritans after His Spirit was poured out on them at Shavuot / Pentecost! In the book of Acts we read about a great revival that came to the Samaritans!
“A word spoken at the right time Is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” ~ Proverbs 25:11
REVIVAL IS HERE!
Just as there was a delay of ten years from the time the Good News went out to the Jews (Acts 2) till the time it went out to the people of the nations (Acts 10 & 11) – so it is in these last days! There has been a heavenly scheduled delay from the time this end-time revival sprung forth in 2009 (the exact year prophesied by Ezekiel!) and the time it has spread out to all those who will receive it 2019. This year is going to be a year like no other!
“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Yahweh require of thee, but to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy Elohim.” ~ Micah 6:8(more…)
In October 2010, Yahweh showed up in great and miraculous ways – which we did not know – and showed us in living 4-D detail just how intimately He involves Himself in our lives and how He directs our steps in detailed, minute ways that are beyond the comprehension and imagination of the natural man!
I detailed that supernatural testimony in my book “Crossing Over” and also in the blog post linked here.
UNDERSTANDING GALATIANS FROM A FIRST CENTURY, JEWISH PERSPECTIVE
CONTROVERSIAL, CONFUSING and MISUNDERSTOOD
Without any fear of contradiction – the letter to the Galatians is one of the most controversial, confusing and misunderstood in all the “New” Testament – if not the entire cannon of Scripture. However, most Christians would readily contradict that statement because in their estimation – Galatians is 100% straightforward – completely justifies their faith and doctrinal position and is not the least bit controversial at all!
On the other hand, there are many within the Hebrew Roots community and those of the Messianic faith who do not know what to make of the author’s writings and either avoid them like the plague, or discount the pharisee from Tarsus (Acts 23:6) as a false prophet or even worse – the very anti-Messiah he warned us about in living and vivid detail in 2Thessalonians 2!
As lovingly as I can say it – in both instances, the audience is almost completely without any understanding. The letter to the Galatians – correctly understood – refutes and rebukes the Christian position over the last 1700 years and it also rebukes and refutes the varying positions taken by Messianic Judaism and most of those embracing the Hebrew Roots of their faith in the 21st century!

Shalom, shalom in the most wonderful name of Yahoshua haMashiach (Jesus the Messiah), to His Excellency – President Edgar Lungu and the beloved people of Zambia,
To those who possess wisdom and understanding concerning the times and seasons of the Lion of Judah – NOW IS THE APPOINTED TIME DECLARES YAHWEH THAT ZAMBIA MUST RISE UP AND PROSPER!
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the honor of Yahweh is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but Yahweh shall arise upon thee, and his honor shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.” – Isaiah 60:1-3 (more…)
However, when I did not SEE anything newsworthy in the headlines of the world’s major newspapers, I publicly repented of prophesying falsely in His name – because I did not understand the prophecy or its fulfillment.
On Oct. 1, 2016 the USA was conquered and no one is the wiser!
These two dated events (September 5th & 6th 2013 and October 1st 2016) are directly related to one another and each of these events is testifying to the other!
The G20 meeting in St. Petersburg, Russia was held during the feast of Trumpets 2013 on September 5th & 6th! It was at this meeting that it was decided that the Chinese Yuan would be the new reserve currency of the world – replacing the role of the U.S. Dollar, which ruled over the nations of the world, for exactly 70 years to the very month, week and day!
During the exact time of this meeting, the Chinese Yuan currency traded ten times more than normal and for the first time in history was among the top ten currencies traded in the world.
On October 1st, 2016, Obama surrendered control of our 2nd most valuable asset (after the dollar) – the internet. While the world was told that the Yuan would be a part of the international basket of currencies – they were not told that HSBC Bank would be selling partially, gold backed, Chinese Yuan bonds – which would be to the world’s reserve currency what the Petrol Dollar was before it.
Just as Cyrus defeated BABYLON after 70 years of ruling over the nations – without a battle or a fight and the people of the kingdom were largely ignorant to the change of command for a year or more – so the USA and the nations have been deceived and do not know that China has replaced the USA as the world’s premier super power!
I wrote all about this prophecy and it’s miraculous fulfillment on my blog.
Is there another prophetic message from Heaven via hurricane Irma?
Consider the following…
Irma primarily means “world”! It derives from a German word “Irmin”, which mean “whole universe”. This was also the name of an ancient “war-goddess”.
When I looked up Irma – the same web-site also informed me that there is a second, anglicanized pronunciation of this name.
Irma is also pronounced Emma!
Emma is the Hebrew Word for Mommy!
Emma means STRONG WATERS in the ancient Hebrew word pictures!
The Hebraic numerical value of Emma is 42!
Now let’s see if we can put it all together…
Many of you are aware there will be a once in history event when the sign John saw in Revelation 12 will be fulfilled on September 23rd, 2017.
The Virgin constellation will be clothed with the Sun, the moon will be under her feet and the three wandering stars of Mercury, Venus and Jupiter will complete the crown of 12 stars upon her head!
Now, the apostle said this sign was heralding the birth of a man-child who will rule with a rod of iron. Who is this man-child – who will be born at this time?
It is none other than the over coming, enduring saints who have been given the rule of Kingdom – co-heirs with Y’shua! (Revelation 2:26-27)
Emma is already being talked about all over the world (I.e. the primary meaning of Irma) – as it is a record-breaking storm! It currently holds the record for the most powerful category 5 hurricane ever to manifest in the Atlantic ocean and also for the longest time continually sustaining that power! It’s width is almost twice the size of the State of Florida – at approximately 300 miles wide!
Truly, this storm is living up to it’s
Hebrew name (Emma), as it is very strong waters that are currently marching across the ocean toward an uncertain destiny!
Emma is yet another sign of the increasing frequency and intensity of the birth pangs – which the whole world is presently experiencing! I personally believe Luke 21:25-27 is presently being fulfilled at the 100-fold level! It is currently being reported that there is a sixty-foot wave inside the eye of the storm!
Jupiter (the Malek or Ruling planet) has been located in the womb of the Virgin constellation since late December 2016 and will shortly depart from the womb after exactly 9 months!
Emma is proclaiming on Earth what the stars and planets are proclaiming in the second heaven!
A MAN-CHILD IS ABOUT TO BE BORN! THE SAINTS OF YAHWEH ARE ABOUT TO BE REVEALED!!!
Directly behind Emma is another tropical storm by the Name of Jose. Jose (Hosea) is the Hebrew name for salvation / deliverance! Our saviour’s name is Hosea with a single letter added to it (the letter yod / y – which transforms Hosea (salvation) to Yahoshua (Yahweh saves).
The man-child’s spirit has been saved. His soul is presently being saved and even now is awaiting the redemption of our bodies! Could this be the message being proclaimed by the birth of Jose (Hoshea) – directly behind Irma (Emma)?
The number 42 (the Hebraic value of Emma) is especially of interest, because this is the very number Matthew’s Good News reports as being the number of generations from father Abraham to Mariam – the mother of Y’shua!
WOW! WOW! WOW!
Finally, 5 (category 5 hurricane) is the number for unmerited favor and 3 is the number for perfection on Earth (300) miles wide. By His unmerited favor, the glorified man-child (Y’shua’s Bride) is soon to be revealed to the entire world!
Blessed be the Name of Yahweh! Hallelu-Yah!!! Come Y’shua, Come!

Y'shua Ha MaShiach is the Spirit of Prophecy 
REVIVAL HAS COME – A WORD IN SEASON
“A word spoken at the right time Is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” ~ Proverbs 25:11
REVIVAL IS HERE!
Just as there was a delay of ten years from the time the Good News went out to the Jews (Acts 2) till the time it went out to the people of the nations (Acts 10 & 11) – so it is in these last days! There has been a heavenly scheduled delay from the time this end-time revival sprung forth in 2009 (the exact year prophesied by Ezekiel!) and the time it has spread out to all those who will receive it 2019. This year is going to be a year like no other!
“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Yahweh require of thee, but to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy Elohim.” ~ Micah 6:8 (more…)
