A personal Testimony

When i was ten years old, i was attacked by Satan. you can dismiss me now, if you like—but i remember it as real as i'm writing this blog right now. He took on an impish form with a tail. He woke me from a sound sleep, sitting on my chest, glaring at me, teasing me with smooth words.

"I'm coming for you," he said grinning at me. "I'm gonna deal with you. You cannot get away."

i tried to scream for my mother, but the sound would not crack from my throat. my lungs were heavy, as though i had expunged all the air from them. He taunted me all the more.

i thought, "if i could just wake up!" but it was painfully clear i was already awake.

hopelessly i tried to call out to G_d. ( I didn't know his name then) but i was only answered with hideous laughter. He knew what i was thinking. he teased me for a few more minutes and then left as easily as he came. laughing at me, he hissed, "I'll see ya around buddy. I'll be back."

It was summer and it was the week of vacation bible school. i couldn't wait to tell the youth pastor about what had happened the previous night. i thought for sure, he'd be able to help me with the issue. To my embarrassment, i made the mistake of telling him in front of a room full of my peers. They all laughed outright and scoffed. Even the pastor dismissed me as having an overactive and vivid imagination. i can remember feeling so hurt by their reaction. i learned then to keep the experience to myself. but then the young pastor said something to me that i would never forget.

"If it ever happens again," he said in a very comforting tone, "you tell him, in the name of J_sus and by the power of the Holy spirit, to get away from you. because you are covered by the blood of the Lamb of G-d. Because of that, Satan can have no power over you." i have carried that with me to this day.

Growing up, my parents didn't make a big issue of going to church. They didn't force church on my brothers and i, because i think they knew that there is something fundamentally wrong with the religious system. But if we wanted to go to church, they encouraged it. They themselves jumped around from one denomination to another, on and off again from time to time, during my formative years, so i have been given some experience within the gamut of the Christian community.

when i was sixteen, i was confronted again. i was awakened to the sound of my own screaming, oddly enough i was the only one who heard it. i was shreeking "Satan!!! Satan!!!" it was in my head. i told myself, "shut up, or he'll come!" but he was already here. i woke up, having soaked my sheets through with sweat. my tongue was cleaving to the roof of my mouth. i was dehydrated like i have never felt in my life. i felt as though i was burning alive in my own skin. i got out of the bed to go to the kitchen for a glass of water. i was so thirsty. my skin was crawling. i looked around to see if he was anywhere to be seen. he was right in front of me. he looked like me. he looked exactly like me—but his eyes were hollow, empty, cold. it was as if the light had been utterly extinguished from his eyes.

he tried to seduce me into following him. he offered me everything my young mind had ever wished for or dreamed. all he wanted was my allegiance. i refused. he sweetened the offer with greater empty promises than even i could have conceived. again i refused. he walked along with me as i made my way to the kitchen to get a drink. it was so hot, and i was so thirsty. he made more and more offers as i drank. i remember how the water evaporated as it touched my tongue. i was beginning to feel quite distressed. i was so thirsty and i could get no relief. i turned to go back to my room. my mother was standing in the doorway to her bedroom, watching me talk to the advisary. she said, "you kids go back to bed." she saw both of us.

i turned to him and he smiled as if to say, "this is no dream, this is for real."

as i walked back to my room, i said aloud, "you have no power over me! in the name of J_sus! and by the power of the holy spirit! get behind me Satan!! i am a child of G_d!

he laughed and scoffed, "so be it, child of G_d!!!" and with that he was gone.

The unholy heat i felt subsided, my extreme thirst subdued. i was utterly exhausted. then, i felt the presence of YHWH with me. as if he was ministering to me from that point. i drifted back to sleep with no fear in me. i was delivered from the tempter and the tormentor.

since that time, i have only been physically confronted by the advisary one other time. and that is an experience i have only ever shared with the woman who is now my wife. and that is the way it will remain.

Ever since that time it has been as though i have been walking with Elohim. i have not always behaved righteously. But i do know that his presence has always been with me, correcting me, watching over me. from that time, i have been able to hear his voice in my ears. it was very faint at first. but as i have grown in my faithfulness, (obedience) to his word i can hear him more clearly all the time. He tells me, "This is the way, walk in it."

no experience in any church will ever give me that kind of clarity or depth of relationship. no clergy member, pastor, priest, bishop, or deacon will ever be able to even understand the relationship experience i have with my creator—much less give me clearer perspective on it. they are merchants selling wares in a place where only love should be given —freely.

he has brought me in and out of various churches over the years, not necessarily to learn but to teach about his love for his people, not the business of churchianity. at this time, he has called me out of churches completely. i have been blessed to be an instrument of his devotion to his people Israel. i am currently with an assembly of believers— who worship biblically— as in "Old Testament." Theres really nothing "old" about it. if you really want to call it something you can call it "re-newed." call me a legalist or a judaizer if you like, but there are twelve tribes of Israel, and at one time they all worshiped according to the Torah. When they stopped worshiping according to Torah they were dispersed. Torah is what separates Israel from the nations. If you want to be included in the inheritance of the chosen people, you must learn to obey YHWH not some guy on a pulpit.

If you are ever personally attacked by satan, it's because YHWH finds you to be particularly important to his purpose and his glory. so remember, if you call on YHWH's Name, the enemy has no power over you. If you have received Messiah as you savior, the enemy cannot touch you. Do not fall for the wiles of the tempter. You have a higher calling. when you call upon the name of Elohim, he will answer, he will deliver you. Keep fighting your fight Qodeshim. You are glorious.

preface: Calling out to the set apart ones.

To the flow of unconscious thought that is the web,

I want to wake you up. I am a voice of one crying out in the wilderness, preparing the narrow path of moshiach. Repent, for the kingdom of YHWH approaches!

let me break down for you what I just wrote. i'll try to keep this as simple as i can.

moshiach:
In Jewish messianic tradition and eschatology, the term came to refer to a future Jewish King from the Davidic line, who will be "anointed" with holy anointing oil and rule the Jewish people during the Messianic Age. In Standard Hebrew, The Messiah is often referred to as מלך המשיח, Méleḫ ha-Mašíaḥ (in the Tiberian vocalization pronounced Méleḵ hamMāšîªḥ), literally meaning "the Anointed King."

i'll get back to this thought train in another post. there's too much information to just sum it all up here.

repent:
verb
1. turn away from sin or do penitence
2. feel remorse for; feel sorry for; be contrite about

if one is to turn away from sin what is one to turn away to?

Torah:
[Heb.,=teachings or learning], Hebrew name for the five books of Moses—the Law of Moses or the Pentateuch, the first five books of the Bible. The Torah is believed by Orthodox Jews to have been handed down to Moses on Mt. Sinai and transmitted by him to the Jews. It laid down the fundamental laws of moral and physical conduct. The Torah begins with a description of the origin of the universe and ends on the word Israel, after the story of the death of Moses, just before the conquest of Canaan by the Israelites. In a wider sense the Torah includes all teachings of Judaism, the entire Hebrew Bible and the Talmud.

can you see where this is going? stick with me, it's going to get worse from here.

YHWH:
Tetragrammaton (from the Greek τετραγράμματον, meaning '[word of] four letters' (tetra "four" + gramma (gen. grammatos) "letter"), refers to יהוה, the name of the God of Israel, written with four letters, as written in the Hebrew Masoretic Text where it appears over 6,800 times.

The letters from right to left are:

Hebrew Letter name Pronunciation
י Yodh "Y"
ה He (pronounced "hey") "H" (or sometimes silent)
ו Vav "V" or placeholder for "O"/"U"
ה He "H" or silent

יהוה is the quadriliteral name of God , which is referred to in Josephus, by the Church Fathers, and the Jerusalem Talmud.

Biblical Hebrew often omits vowel sounds from its writings, which would be shown in English.

These four letters are usually transliterated from Hebrew as JHWH in German, French and Dutch, and YHWH in English. This was variously rendered as "Yahweh" or "Jehovah", since in Latin there was no distinct lettering to distinguish 'Y' from 'J', or 'W' from 'V', and the Hebrew does not clearly indicate the omitted vowels. In English translations, it is often rendered in all capital letters as "LORD", following Jewish tradition which reads the word as "Adonai" ("Lord") out of respect for the name of God and the commandment not to take the name of God in vain.

Occurrences and Uses

The Tetragrammaton is the ancient Jewish name for God. It occurs 5410 times in the Bible:

Biblical Book(s) Occurrences
Genesis 153
Exodus 364
Leviticus 285
Numbers 387
Deuteronomy 230
Joshua 170
Judges 158
Samuel 423
Kings 467
Isaiah 367
Jeremiah 555
Ezekiel 211
Minor Prophets 345
Psalms 645
Proverbs 87
Job 31
Ruth 16
Lamentations 32
Daniel 7
Ezra - Nehemiah 31
Chronicles 446

The Tetragrammaton occurs 6,828 times in the Hebrew text of both the Biblia Hebraica and Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia.

Let me ask you a question? If YHWH did not want you to use or even know his name, if it is quote "ineffable," why would it be used so many times in his written works?

Blessed is he who calls upon the name of YHWH
Blessed is he who comes in the name of YHWH

these are only two of hundreds of examples i can use from scripture to feed the flock. the point is, anywhere you see the word L_RD written in all capitals, it is hiding the four letter name of the one Jews and Christians claim to love and worship.

i am going to challenge the readers of this blog to scrutinize the empty, vain, errant traditions that have been adopted and clung to for generations. the Nicolaitans have had a strangle hold on your minds and hearts for too long. they have prayed upon your hope and fleeced you for too long. as they have pillaged you and and misled you, the advisary has laughed raucously over his victory over the confusion and division he has created among the qodesh (set apart) ones. It's time to awake to the nightmare that is your human existence.

The're is so much to learn and there is no time. your leaders both religous and secular are taking you down the broad path that leads to destruction. you are surrounded by babylon.


you have to sober up from the wine of the wrath of her fornication, or you will share in her plagues.

included are some links that will point you in the right direction. check these sites out before the police state eventually shuts these people down. welcome to the new dark age. it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Always remember: "Blessed are those who overcome"
