you tell him the truth, you either turn him into an honest man by
him changing to the truth or a liar by him remaining with a lie
despite knowing the truth.’’
By the end of this book, you will become an honest person or a
lair. We only hope that you make the right decision because it’s a
matter of life and death.
We are going to attempt awaking you from your slumber to begin
a new journey that will lead you to life. A journey that few have
walked because it is written in Matthew 7:13-14 For the gate is
wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who
enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard
that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
This book is a summary of the most important topic to man, we
have en-devoured to make it as short as possible because we need
many to know the truth as soon as possible with the greatest ease.
By the end of the book, you should have a better reply to any that
ask you why you chose to be obedient to Yahweh’s
commandments despite the grace that He has shown you.
We do not belong to any organized religious body such as
Catholic, Seventh-Day Adventist,Pentecostal, Black Hebrew
Roots or any other Christian denomination, we are merely
followers of Yeshua and seekers of truth.
Our Lord is coming back soon and we are running out of time.
As you read this book remember what was written: ‟ Today when
you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.’’
In this book we prefer to use Yahweh for God and Yeshua for
Jesus.

What is Salvation?

might be saved through Him. 18 Whoever believes and has
decided to trust in Him [as personal Savior and Lord] is not
judged [for this one, there is no judgment, no rejection, no
condemnation]; but the one who does not believe [and has
decided to reject Him as personal Savior and Lord] is judged
already [that one has been convicted and sentenced], because
[b]he has not believed and trusted in the name of the [One and]
only begotten Son of God [the One who is truly unique, the only
One of His kind, the One who alone can save him]. 19 This is the
judgment [that is, the cause for indictment, the test by which
people are judged, the basis for the sentence]: the Light has come
into the world, and people loved the [c]darkness rather than the
Light, for their deeds were evil. 20 For every wrongdoer hates the
Light, and does not come to the Light [but shrinks from it] for
fear that his [sinful, worthless] activities will be exposed and
condemned. 21 But whoever practices truth [and does what is
right—morally, ethically, spiritually] comes to the Light, so that
his works may be plainly shown to be what they are—
accomplished in God [divinely prompted, done with God‟s help,
in dependence on Him].
The following are the words Yeshua said to Nicodemus about His
mission on earth.
John 3:14 AMP 14 Just as Moses lifted up the [bronze] serpent in
the desert [on a pole], so must the Son of Man be lifted up [on the
cross], 15 so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life
[after physical death, and will actually live forever].
Yeshua/Jesus was referring to what happened to Israel on their
journey to the Promised Land. They sinned against Yahweh and
were
9
sentenced to death by fiery snakes. However, Israel repented of
their sin and Yahweh/God instructed Moses to make a bronze
snake that whosoever looked upon it that was bitten by the snake
could live. This was a foreshadowing of what Yeshua/Jesus was
going to do for the sinners of the world.
Numbers 21:5 AMP 5 So the people spoke against God and
against Moses, “Why have you brought us out of Egypt to die in
the wilderness? For there is no bread, nor is there any water, and
we loathe this miserable food.” 6 Then the LORD sent fiery (burning)
serpents among the people; and they bit the people, and many Israelites
died. 7 So the people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, for we
have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD, so
that He will remove the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the
people. 8 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent [of
bronze] and set it on a pole; and everyone who is bitten will live when
he looks at it.” 9 So Moses made a serpent of bronze and put it on the
pole, and it happened that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he
looked to the bronze serpent, he lived.
Exodus 31:13 Tell the Israelites, Surely you must observe My
Sabbaths, for this will be a sign between Me and you for the
generations to come, so that you may know that I am the LORD who
sanctifies you.
In summary, we have concluded that salvation is through faith in
Yahweh, all we have to do is to be obedient to His instructions so that
He may sanctify us or make us holy. Through our obedience, Yahweh
begins a good work within us. Our obedience is the outcome/evidence
of our faith. Most Christians do not know what they are saved from and
why they need salvation, so let us define what sin is and its
consequences.
10
What is Sin?
Image by https://unsplash.com/photos/eouEtrJf844
It’s sad to state that most of the present day Christians can no
longer define what sin is. Only scripture can define what sin is
therefore, We have selected these two Bible versions for you to
understand what sin is.
1 John 3:4 ESV 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning
also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.
1 John 3:4 KJV 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth
also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.’’
Now that we know what sin is, we need to know about the penalty
or consequence of sin.
11
Penalty/ Consequences of Sin
Image by https://unsplash.com/photos/OXGhu60NwxU
When we go back to the beginning, in the garden, we are introduced to
what sin is and its consequences.
Genesis 2: 16 ESV but of the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat[d] of it you shall
surely die.
Our only Elohim/Yahweh told Adam the consequence of sin,
which is death. This reminder is brought back by Paul in Romans
6:23 that the wages of sin is death.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of
God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
.As the scriptures have stated, sin is the transgression of the Law.
It is the breaking of the Law of Yahweh. The Law is found in the
Torah, Torah is a Hebrew word for instruction, teaching, or Law.
The Torah is mostly referred to as the first five books of the
Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) of what is now called the Old Testament.
The Law is sometimes called the Law of Moses.
12
The Books that make up Torah
1. Bresheit (Genesis),
2. Shemot (Exodus),
3. Vayicra (Leviticus),
4. Bamidbar (Numbers),
5. Devarim (Deuteronomy).
Matthew 19: 25-26 25 When his disciples heard it, they were
exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?26 But Jesus
beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but
with God all things are possible.
13
Again we see that the Just shall live only by Faith in Yahweh
because He alone can bring our faith to maturity and do what no
man can do.
14
me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the
commandments: „Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not
steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour your
father and mother.‟20 And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I
have kept from my youth.” 21 And Jesus, looking at him, loved
him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you
have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven;
and come, follow me.” 22 Disheartened by the saying, he went
away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
The rich young man was a nice person who did some of the Laws
but he lacked one thing, Faith in the Lawgiver, which is the first
of the ten commandments. The rich young man had a good idea of
who Christ was by calling Him a good Teacher but the rich young
15
man could not follow Yeshua’s instructions because he was an
idolater, he had placed his wealth above Yahweh, yet it's written
in Exodus 20:3 You shall have no other gods before Me.
The Torah/ Instructions of our Elohim /Yahweh instruct us to
listen and obey every word that comes from Yeshua. The prophet
like Mosheh / Moses in Deuteronomy 18:15-19 was and is
Yeshua/ Jesus.
A New Prophet like Moses
Deuteronomy 18:15-19 (ESV) 15“The LORD your God will raise
up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your
brothers—it is to him you shall listen— 16 just as you desired of
the LORD your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when
you said, „Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God or
see this great fire any more, lest I die.‟ 17And the LORD said tome,
„They are right in what they have spoken. 18 I will raise up for
them a prophet like you from among their brothers. And I will put
my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I
command him. 19 And whoever will not listen to my words that
he shall speak in my name, I myself will require it of him.
16
good; but if you wish to enter into eternal life, keep the
commandments.
If we should not trust and obey Yeshua, then what is the new way
to get eternal life?
17
Is the Torah/ Law/Instructions Still
Relevant?

The Law/Instructions Defined
Psalm 19: 7
7
The law of the Lord is perfect,[c]
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple;
8
the precepts of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is
pure, enlightening the eyes;
9
the fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever;
the rules[d] of the Lord are true,
18
and righteous altogether.
10
More to be desired are they than
gold, even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey
and drippings of the honeycomb.
11
Moreover, by them is your servant
warned; in keeping them there is great
reward.
12
Who can discern his errors?
Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
13
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous
sins; let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my
heart be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Matthew 5:17 is a warning from Jesus to all those that seek
salvation.
21
2 Timothy 3 : 13-19 AMP. 13 But evil men and impostors will go
on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for
you, continue in the things that you have learned and of which
you are convinced [holding tightly to the truths], knowing from
whom you learned them, 15 and how from childhood you have
known the sacred writings (Hebrew Scriptures) which are able
to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus [surrendering your entire self to Him
and having absolute confidence in His wisdom, power and
goodness]. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed [given by divine
inspiration] and is profitable for instruction, for conviction [of
sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for
training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God‟s
will, both publicly and privately—behaving honourably with
personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the [a]man of
God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly
equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3 : 16 Good News Translation ‘’All Scripture is
inspired by God and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking
error, correcting faults, and giving instruction for right living
2 Timothy 3:16 ESV. All Scripture is breathed out by God and
profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for
training in righteousness,…
All scripture means the Tanakh ( Old Testament) the Law of
Moses and the writings of the prophets. These scriptures are for
the purpose of teaching, reproof, correction, and training in
righteousness. By the time Paul wrote this, the New Testament
had not yet been compiled.

Paul was talking about the scriptures in the Old Testament
because most of the New Testament letters had not yet even been
written.
James 1:22 -25 TS2009 22And become doers of the Word, and
not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.23Because if anyone is a
hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at
his natural face in a mirror,24for he looks at himself, and goes
away, and immediately forgets what he was like.25But he that
looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom, and continues in it,
not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one
shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah.
How can you prepare to go to a great wedding without the use of
a mirror to ensure you are looking good and clean? Most
Christians think they can do away with the mirror which is the
perfect Law thus rejecting the Instructions of Yahweh. This
means that we shall do what is right in our own eyes. We as men
are incapable of forming standards of morality because we are
flawed.
24
Faith in Yeshua plus the works of the Law make you identifiable
to Yeshua our Lord, without obedience to the law; He does not
know who you are. His instructions are the marker/Identification
that He has given you and without it, He does not know you.
Hosea 8: 11-13 NLT Israel has built many altars to take away
sin, but these very altars became places for sinning! 12 Even
though I gave them all my laws, they act as if those laws don‟t
apply to them. 13 The people love to offer sacrifices to me,
feasting on the meat, but I do not accept their sacrifices. I will
hold my people accountable for their sins, and I will punish them.
25
The present-day Christians are known for their charitable deeds,
helping the sick, the poor, the orphans, great worship music,
amazing church buildings, night prayers, lunch hour prayers,
well-dressed prophets, and pastors in the latest suit designs,
speaking in what they call tongues of fire and casting out demons.
All these things may not be bad but the problem is that
Yahweh/ God hates lawlessness.
All the above can be done to perfection but the moment you are
lawless, all your efforts and hard work have been done in vain,
with no reward of eternal life.
Proverbs 28:9 NLT 9 God detests the prayers of a person who
ignores the law.
26
To Love Yahweh
John 14:15 15 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.’’
Matthew 22:37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord
your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all
your mind.’’
The Prophets and Pastors will tell you that now we can be selective on
how to love Yahweh/ God. That you can select the instructions you
want and the ones you don't like, you neglect. If you can pick and
choose what you like and don't like then you have become better than
Yahweh. You have ascended beyond His authority. That sounds evil
and dangerous, think about it! Yeshua was reminding you of the
instructions given to Moses because Yahweh is the same yesterday,
today, and forever. He has
27
a specific way He wants to be loved and worshiped. Deuteronomy
6:5 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your strength.
1 John 3:4 NLT Everyone who sins is breaking God’s law, for
all sin is contrary to the law of God. 5 And you know that Jesus
came to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. 6 Anyone
who continues to live in Him will not sin. But anyone who keeps
on sinning does not know him or understand who he is.
Deuteronomy 30:6 ESV And the Lord your God will circumcise
your heart and the heart of your offspring, so that you will love
the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that
you may live. ‟The promise of life is to those that love Yahweh.
How do you know that you love Yahweh?’’
1John 2:3-5 ESV And by this we know that we have come to
know him, if we keep his commandments.4Whoever says “I know
him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth
is not in him,5 but whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love
of God is perfected.
28
Is the Law a Heavy Burden?
Image by https://unsplash.com/photos/TsVN31Dzyv4
29
Proverbs 16:25 ESV There is a way that seems right to a man,
but its end is the way to death.
There is a way we think is right, maybe because it's popular and
easy, but peer pressure and comfort have never been the best
reasons for us to believe what we believe.
The only way in which we can successfully pick and chose what
to be obedient to that is contrary to the Heavenly Father, is by
having something else to believe in , something greater than the
Him.
However, he path to eternal life is not determined by man but by
God/Yahweh, anything that contradicts Yahweh has rejected the
light. Remember, it's only Yahweh that can give eternal life, so I
believe His instructs are truth unlike those of men.
30
Why Salvation?
31
How do We Attain Salvation?
We have to understand that we are sinners and in need of
repentance to be reconciled back to Yahweh. Our belief in
Yeshua gives us full confidence in our journey to eternal life
because it's written in Micah 7 :19. He shall again have
compassion on us; He will subdue and tread underfoot our
wickedness [destroying sin‟s power]. Yes , You will cast all our
sins into the depths of the sea.
How will you repent without the Law? Because without the law
there is no sin. Without sin why then do you need to repent and
what then is the purpose for a saviour without sin?
1 Peter 1:13 ESV. Therefore, preparing your minds for action,[b]
and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will
be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.14 As obedient
children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former
ignorance,15 but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in
all your conduct,16 since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I
am holy.’’
Yeshua brought grace but with that grace comes a call for
obedience leaving the passions and traditions of men. Jesus told
the rich young man and the Lawyer to do the commandments of
Yahweh because it is a requirement to enter into life. Should we
say that Jesus was lying to the rich young man and the Lawyer?
Now that is something you need to think about.
32
Was Jesus making a joke? Why do your pastors, bishops, prophets,
and Pope tell you the opposite of what Jesus instructed? Why do
they tell you that the commandments/instructions of Yahweh are
no longer essential for you to enter life? Why do they do away
with many laws saying only the 9 commandments still stand
because they were written on stone and not on paper? Why
promote lawlessness?
33
because [a]God‟s seed [His principle of life, the essence of His
righteous character] remains [permanently] in him [who is born
again—who is reborn from above—spiritually transformed,
renewed, and set apart for His purpose]; and he [who is born
again] cannot habitually [live a life characterized by] sin,
because he is born of God and longs to please Him. 10 By this the
children of God and the children of the devil are clearly identified:
anyone who does not practice righteousness [who does not seek
God‟s will in thought, action, and purpose] is not of God, nor is
the one who does not [unselfishly] [b]love his [believing] brother.
By now if you are truly of Yeshua you must be hearing His voice
echo within the chambers of your heart awakening your spirit to
His instructions of righteous that you may live. We are but only
messengers and watchmen of the time that you are living in. Not
many will follow Him in true knowledge but if you do, you will
be part of the 1% that will be saved and the world will truly hate
you as it hated Him. It is indeed a narrow path but it’s entirely
worth it.
Ephesians 5 AMP. 13 But all things become visible when they are
exposed by the light [of God‟s precepts], for [a]it is light that
makes everything visible. 14 For this reason He says,
“Awake,sleeper,
And arise from the dead,
And Christ will shine [as dawn] upon you and give you light.”
34
Only Grace, Once Saved Always
Saved.
35
Just Believe and Get Saved
John 3 :16
John 3:16 AMP 16 “For God so [greatly] loved and dearly
prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] [a]only
begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as
Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life.’’
This can easily be the founding scripture that holds the notion of
once saved always saved. This scripture is interpreted in such a
way that belief in Jesus is only a mental position of acceptance
and requires no obedience to receive eternal life. This is further
emphasized that the thief who believed in Jesus at the cross did
not require to live a life according to the instructions of God, He
just believed therefore that is enough for all that want salvation.
It's true that the thief only needed to believe or accept who Jesus
was to be saved but we must also agree that if the thief had for
some reason been pardoned from death after accepting the gospel
of Christ, he would not have gone back to stealing. If he did go
back to stealing in our hypothetical scenario, we would then
question his belief because he would have no fruit of the Spirit. In
short, we would label him a hypocrite and a mocker of Jesus..
36
A Tree and Its Fruit
Matthew 7 :15 AMP 15 “Beware of the false prophets, [teachers]
who come to you dressed as sheep [appearing gentle and
innocent], but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 By their fruit you
will recognize them [that is, by their contrived doctrine and self-
focus]. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from
thistles? 17 Even so, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the
unhealthy tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad
fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does
not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20
Therefore, by their fruit you will recognize them [as false
prophets].21 “Not everyone who says to Me, „Lord, Lord,‟ will
enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My
Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me on that day
[when I judge them], „Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your
name, and driven out demons in Your name, and done many
miracles in Your name?‟ 23 And then I will declare to them
publicly, „I never knew you; depart from Me [you are banished
from My presence], you who act wickedly [disregarding My
commands].’’
The belief in Jesus is evident only through the fruits of the spirit
that come by obedience to God’s Commands and precepts / Torah.
Just from the Matthew Scripture above we can see that one may
believe to the point of doing ministry by prophesying, driving out
demons and even doing numerous miracles but may not enter the
Kingdom of heaven because of disobedience to God's
instructions/ Torah. God wants more than just lip service, He
wants to see actions that prove what you proclaim.
37
Be Doers not Mere Listeners
James 1:21 AMP ‘’So get rid of all uncleanness and [e]all that
remains of wickedness, and with a humble spirit receive the word
[of God] which is implanted [actually rooted in your heart],
which is able to save your souls. 22 But prove yourselves doers of
the word [actively and continually obeying God‟s precepts], and
not merely listeners [who hear the word but fail to internalize its
meaning], deluding yourselves [by unsound reasoning contrary to
the truth]. 23 For if anyone only listens to the word [f]without
obeying it, he is like a man who looks very carefully at his natural
face in a mirror; 24 for once he has looked at himself and gone
away, he immediately forgets [g]what he looked like. 25 But he
who looks carefully into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and
faithfully abides by it, not having become a [careless] listener
who forgets but [h]an active doer [who obeys], he will be blessed
and favored by God in what he does [in his life of obedience].’’
Again the above scripture shows that you can not please God
without obeying his commandments, the only way to remove
uncleanness and wickedness from yourself is through obedience
to the instructions for a holy/set-apart life. God wants you to be
Holy and Set-apart from the world. If you think that you can
remain saved / eternally secure even when you are intentionally
sinning please rethink that claim. Let’s have a look at what Paul
said about sinners and the kingdom of God.
38
adulterers, nor effeminate [by perversion], nor [e]those who
participate in homosexuality, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor
drunkards, nor revilers [whose words are used as weapons to abuse,
insult, humiliate, intimidate, or slander], nor swindlers will inherit
or have any share in the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of
you [before you believed]. But you were washed [by the atoning
sacrifice of Christ], you were sanctified [set apart for God, and
made holy], you were justified [declared free of guilt] in the name
of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God [the
source of the believer‟s new life and changed behavior].’’
You cannot confess your sins and turn back to your old ways, this is
not acceptable. You must pursue righteousness through the
obedience to the instructions of God which are his Commandments
found in what you call the old testament..
Hebrews 12:14 AMP ‘’ 14 Continually pursue peace with everyone,
and the sanctification without which no one will [ever] see the
Lord.’’
Hebrews 12:14 ESV ‘’14 Strive for peace with everyone, and for
the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.’’

Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and
to the day of eternity. Amen.
Matthew 15:7 AMP. 7 You hypocrites (play-actors, pretenders),
rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you when he said,
8
THIS PEOPLE HONORS ME WITH THEIR LIPS,
BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR AWAY FROM ME.
9
BUT IN VAIN DO THEY WORSHIP ME,
FOR THEY TEACH AS DOCTRINES THE PRECEPTS OF MEN.
There is nothing new on this earth, as some of the Pharisees and
Scribes taught the traditions of men as though they were
instructions of God/Yahweh, so do most of the Pastors and
Prophets of the modern age. You must be careful.
Matthew 15:14 ESV. Let them alone; they are blind guides. And if
the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.
Those that believed in the truth will soon be revealed, though it will be
too late for the majority that followed the blind guides because it will be
judgement day. Both the leaders and their followers end up in the same
place.
Revelation 11:18-19 AMP. 18 And the nations (Gentiles) became
enraged, and Your wrath and indignation came, and the time
came for the dead to be judged, and [the time came] to reward
Your bond-servants the prophets and the saints (God‟s people)
and those who fear Your name, the small and the great, and [the
time came] to destroy the destroyers of the earth.”19 And the
temple of God which is in heaven was opened; and the ark of His
covenant appeared in His temple, and there were flashes of
42
lightning, loud rumblings and peals of thunder and an earthquake
and a great hailstorm.
If you have been a Christian you know what is in the Ark of the
Covenant. His will for mankind is in the Ark of the Covenant, that
is where the summary of all the commandments where placed.
Yeshua should not be having the Ark of the Covenant if He had
rendered it useless at the cross.
Yahweh our Elohim does have a lot of love for us, but you have
to remember that the same God can bring death as it is written
Fear Him who can kill both body and soul.
Hebrews 10: 31. The Lord will judge His people. It is a
terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
You have no fear of Yahweh because of the many years you have sat
under the instruction of a great deception. Even when presented with
the truth you will fight it because the truth makes your life hard. The
very life you think you have you will lose it.
Have a look at the model prayer given by Yeshua
43
13
„And do not [g]lead us into temptation, but deliver us from [h]evil.
[i][For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.]‟
By now you know that the will of a King is His Instructions, and for this
case, the Torah/Law is the Instructions for living by the King of Kings.
The truth has always been in front of you now is the time for you to go
beyond looking and finally see.
You have run out of time, maybe Yahweh has given you life for a
moment such as this when you awaken from the great deception span by
the Devil throughout most churches.
There is a form of godliness within the church, but the truth has been
nullified by traditions of men with the twisting of Scriptures to facilitate
lawlessness.. Matthew 24:12 ESV ‟And because lawlessness will
be increased, the love of many will grow cold.‟
From the time the law was given, lawlessness has been
multiplying among those supposed to observe it. Our Elohim is
not pleased with this. We should have our faith entirely in Him
through obedience.
This is the end of this section of the book where multiple verses
have been offered to you. The next section is going to teach you
how to think for yourself. To become an independent thinker free
from external and internal influence. It will be a summarized
course in Critical Thinking and information analysis.
44
Is the Law for Gentiles?
This is one of the arguments used by the devil and his agents that are
masquerading as servants of the Holy to make Christians twice as much
the children for the devil after coming into the christian faith.
Matthew 23: 15 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you
hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and
when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell
as you are.
45
A gentile is an person belonging to any other nation but not Israel/Jewish
nation. Abraham and his descendants are the Nation of God. We can see
this in Genesis that God had promised to turn Abraham into a great
nation.
Genesis 12:1 Now the LORD said[a] to Abram, “Go from your
country[b] and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I
will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless
you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing.
Who are the true children of Abraham because the bible says that there
will be impostors calling themselves children of God.
Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan,
which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make
them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved
thee.
These impostors/ lairs were also present before Yeshua/ Jesus and
continue to be even now until the end of the present world. As you will
see in the following scriptures it is not blood that makes you a true child
of Abraham.
Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the
works of Abraham. 40 But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told
you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. 41 You
do the deeds of your father.”
Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one
Father—God.”
John 8: 42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would
love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of
46
Myself, but He sent Me. 43 Why do you not understand My speech?
Because you are not able to listen to My word. 44 You are of your father
the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a
murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because
there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his
own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. 45 But because I tell
the truth, you do not believe Me. 46 Which of you convicts Me of sin?
And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? 47 He who is of God
hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of
God.”
Again Yeshua/ Jesus empathizes that it’s those who are obedient to the
Torah/ will/instructions of the Father that are of the nation of God/
Children of Abraham/ His relatives.
Matthew 12:46 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his
mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47 Someone
told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to
speak to you.”48 He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my
brothers?” 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother
and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in
heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
More over, the New Covenant is not with other Nations but the Nation
of God/ Children of Abraham. So if one claims to be under the New
Covenant then they have labeled themselves as Jews.
Jeremiah 31:31 “Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I
will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of
47
Judah, 32 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day
when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my
covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares
the LORD. 33 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them,
and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall
be my people.
If you claim to have the Holy Spirit of God, then you should be walking
in his commandments keeping His Torah. Only those with the hearts
of Stone will find excuses to be disobedient to God because they do not
have the Spirit Of God in the first place.
Ezekiel 36: 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I
will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of
flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my
decrees and be careful to keep my laws.
Romans 8: 6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind
on the Spirit is life and peace. 7 For the mind that is set on the flesh
is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it
cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
If you claim to have the Holy spirit and you reject the Law of God, you
are a lair. I know it hates to be labeled a lair but that is how the
Scriptures that have been quoted so far conclude. You are a lair.
1 John 2:3 And by this we know that we have come to know him, if
we keep his commandments. 4 Whoever says “I know him” but does not
keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him, 5 but
whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected. By this
we may know that we are in him: 6 whoever says he abides in him ought
to walk in the same way in which he walked.
Gentiles meaning those who are not Joined to God have an open door to
48
do so, and in doing so they become children of Abraham. All other
people that belong to other nations are invited by God to be part of the
Covenant made between Him and His people.
Isaiah 56:6 Also the sons of the foreigner Who join themselves to
the LORD, to serve Him, And to love the name of the LORD, to be His
servants—Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, And holds fast
My covenant—7 Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make
them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their
sacrifices Will be accepted on My altar; For My house shall be called a
house of prayer for all nations.

The best way the devil can attack man is not through direct lies
but through half-truths twisted for his gain and He has been
feeding the Christians with twisted truth for a long time.

Critical Thinking for the Christian

52
beliefs? How come we contradict each other and can't come to
one conclusion?
Previous Belief:
Most people only apply critical thinking for beliefs that oppose
their own and fail to use that same critical thinking on the
arguments that defend their own. It is indeed devastating to give
up a belief you have known as true all your life, it’s only natural
to defend it because of the comfort and memories you hold
towards that belief. But you have to remember, if what you
believe is not true, there will be consequences that follow even if
you may not see any immediate effort.
In the beliefs we all individually hold, we believe them to be true.
There would be no point in believing in something false.
Therefore whatever we believe, we consider it to be true. This is
important to note, truth is a vital aspect that plays a central role in
our beliefs.
Let's define a few terms;
Truth by definition is a fact that has been verified, truth is that
which conforms to reality and what is reality
Reality is the state of the world as it is not as you might want it to
be. Anything that is not reality is a fantasy.
Fantasy by definition is Fiction with a large amount of
imagination Imagination unrestricted by reality
Let’s look at this Scenario to better understand truth and belief.
John is hungry and finds food at the table. His friend Peace tells
him the food is good and that he should have it. The truth in this
scenario is that the food is good, but a stranger tells John the
53
food has been poisoned and he must not eat it if he wants to live.
If John believes in Peace, he will eat the food and He would be
fine because it's true the food is good. The desired outcome of
eating the food is to satisfy hunger, which is met by believing the
truth given by Peace. If John believes the stranger, he would then
not eat it because he believes it will do him harm, and he would
miss the opportunity to satisfy his hunger, because he believed in
something false. First desire: satisfy hunger. The second desire: is
to avoid food poisoning. In the attempt to avoid food poisoning,
John also misses out on satisfying his hunger, yet the food is not
poisoned. There are consequences in believing a lie, in this case,
John remains hungry yet good food is right in front of him. The
other thing to note is that the things you do affirm what you
believe. If John says that he believes in his friend Peace and yet
doesn't eat the food, his actions affirm he believes in the stranger.
James 2:22 ‟You see that his faith and his actions were working
together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.‟
If a Christian claims to believe in Yeshua Christ as their saviour,
then their actions will show.
John 14:15 ‟If you love me, keep my commands.‟
More on that later.
But from analyzing John's scenario we can conclude this: Truth
has no consequences, but lies do. Truth gives good desired
outcomes and lies give evil undesired out comes.
54
Why People Believe What They Believe?
So why people believe what they believe, most of the answers
you will get will fall within these categories. Sociological
psychological, religious and philosophical.
Sociological Psychological Religious Philosophical
Reasons Reasons Reasons Reasons
Parents Comfort Pope Consistency
There are many religions and each has their holy (scriptures) that guide
them, and they each believe that their (scriptures) are direct from Higher
beings/ God/gods. So which religion is right, and what makes yours any
56
truer from the rest? The different religions have some supernatural
similarities, but they are fundamentally different and contradict each
other. So the question you should be asking is how can you know which
of the (scriptures) is true and from a True God? (I want you to replace
the word scriptures with each of the individual words that fall under
religious reasons because this appeals to all.)
An extra category for why people believe something to be true is time.
Just because something has been done like that for many years/a
tradition, does not make it right..
Is it a good reason to believe something is true if it is backed
by evidence and sound logic? I believe so.
Logic by definition is reasoning conducted or assessed according
to strict principles of validity.
How do we tell the good logic from the bad?
For an argument to have good logic, it must satisfy the two
conditions;;
1. The premises must all be plausible to the audience
2. The conclusion must follow from the premises.
Example
1. All dogs bark.
2. Jack is a dog.
Therefore, Jack can bark.
57
If I had concluded that Jack can't bark, I would then be
contradicting myself and would be implying that not all dogs bark
making the first premise untrue. This is an example of logical
inconsistency. I would also like to add that this would be lacking
common sense.
Common sense: good sense and sound judgement in practical
matters.
In Uganda, we use the term common sense so often so we will use
it because the audience can relate with it.
By no means should we ever believe an argument that is logically
inconsistent or in other words lacking common sense..
1. All dogs have wings.
2. Jack is a dog.
Therefore, Jack has wings
The argument is valid because the conclusion follows the
premises. But we know the conclusion is false because dogs don't
have wings therefore the conclusion can't be true.
Logic does not tell us whether the premises are true or not plus
How do we also know whether Jack is a dog, it could be a man or
a bird.
The truth is obtained through observation and experience.
Through observation, you obtain consistency in the subject being
observed.
58
Consistency by definition is unchanging in nature, standard, not
containing any logical contradictions, or always happening or
behaving in a similar way.
From all the dogs that we have observed, we see a consistency
that a dog will never have wings. Therefore through observation,
we can say that it's true dogs don't have wings.
Albert Einstein stated that "doing the same thing over and over
again, but expecting a different result is the definition of
insanity."
So when something is consistent we can call it truth because it
will never change if it did you would never what it is."
Hebrews 13:8 NKJV‟Just as the Bible says, Jesus Christ is the
same yesterday, today, and forever.’’
John 14:6 NKJV ‟Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth,
and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.‟
What am getting at here is that to know that something is true it
has to be consistent. If Yahweh ever changed His mind about the
standards of what is right and wrong, then that would imply that
there was some information He didn't know and that God would
not be the true Elohim, the true Yahweh knows all things because
he made all things, and can see the future, present and
past.Matthew 5:18 NIV ‟For truly I tell you, until heaven and
earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a
pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is
accomplished.’’
That aside how can we use consistence to find the truth. From the
smoking cigarette example, I had said that comfort (psychological
reasons) does not determine whether smoking is harmful or no
59
In this case, only experience can determine whether it's harmful,
of course, you don't necessarily have to smoke a cigarette yourself
but you can study those that do and see the end results. This is
what we call science.
Science by definition is knowledge from the careful study of the
structure and behaviour of the physical world, especially by
watching, measuring, and doing experiments, and the
development of theories to describe the results of these activities
If you carried out this experiment and observed that both smokers
and non-smokers, you would get a consistency in your finding,
that those that smoke develop bad health conditions compared to
those that don't. Since this can be tested over and over again and
results remain consistent, then this would make it a fact and true
that smoking is harmful regardless of those that smoke and say
"Since it gives them comfort it cant be harmful".
Let’s go back to sociological reasons for more analysis. There is a
saying in the Baganda culture that says, ‟omukulu tasobya’’.An
elder doesn't make mistakes, or an elder is always right. This is a
false statement because you as a person know that you do make
mistakes , it’s only God/Yahweh who is capable of always being
right since He made everything therefore He knows all things.
Man only discovers what is true because he is not all-knowing.
But that does not mean that everything he says and does is untrue.
What am getting at here is that the only one you can trust is
God/Yahweh, because He is all-knowing, and never changing.
But there are many Gods that the world presents us with and they
all can't be true because they contradict each other.
.
60
Why Is contradiction such a big factor when it comes to finding
the truth, can't two things exist while contradicting each other?
This is just impossible here are some examples.
A cloth can't be completely soaking wet and completely dry at the
same time.
You can either be married or single, not both.
If you are waiting for a friend, that friend is either coming or not
coming at all.
It can't be both noon and midnight at the same time.
Your woman can't be both pregnant and not at the same time. So
where there is contradiction truth is absent also.
In the next books, we shall be using what we have learned in the
previous chapters to answer some of the famous points against
Yahweh’s law. We are keeping the booklets as small as possible
for easy reading,
1. Is the Law for only Israel or to all Nations?
2. Is it the heart that matters but not the actions?
3. Why do Christians eat unclean food in
disobedience to Yahweh?
4. Was the Sabbath day nailed at the cross?
5. If you follow Yahweh, why don’t you stone
sinners?
6. Why are pagan holidays like Easter and
Christmas in the Church?
7. What was nailed at the cross?
61
A Call to Support the Ministry
As you have also received freely, help us reach many more people
as we help and equip the 1% that will be saved with more
knowledge and awareness that they are not alone.
If you have been blessed, please don’t forget to support the
ministry any way that you can, so that even more content can be
made available for your race to eternity.
For Ministry support, debates and discussion on the topic of this
booklet please contact us via Mail: [email protected]

Warnings and Final Remarks
Now that you have got this information you may be eager to go
join a group whether physical or online, but you have got to be
very careful. You will find that most groups will be so focused on
ding the law that they may forget about the most important part of
the law which is Love. You will know these groups by their
attitude towards other people of different skin colour from them.
Read the Law and take it in step by step, washing away the sin
from your life step by step do not rush it. If you have any
questions you can always reach out to us and we help each other
on this narrow path to salvation.
63
Now that you have reached the end of this book we want to
remind you to test everything, even this very book, do not take
our word as truth, but test it. The truth will remain true even when
it’s disregarded or ignored.When you decide to be obedient to
God, remember to take it one step at a time. Do not rush it, it
takes time.
We wish you the best on the journey through the narrow path.
May the grace of our Lord Yeshua be with you.
Amen.
