General Disclaimer

1. The Hebraic mindset, which was without doubt the worldview of ALL Biblical authors, is absolutely essential for proper interpretation of Scripture. If the Hebraic mindset (or context) is not used, incorrect Biblical interpretation is unavoidable.  Sadly, traditional Christianity, which I often call "Constantinian" Christianity due to its origins in the era of the Roman emperor Constantine, long ago replaced "Hebraic" context with Westernized Greco-Roman context, thereby planting a seed of error from which countless false teachings sprouted and flourish to this very day.  (NOTE: "Hebraic" is NOT equal to "Judaic.")
2. The actual Biblical "gospel" is the "gospel (good news) of the coming Kingdom", which has been and continues to be ignored, censored, and sometimes directly opposed within traditional Christianity. Simply put, the true gospel is that the promises of a literal, earthly, Messianic world "Kingdom of God" originally suggested to Abraham, later greatly expanded upon, and often repeated throughout the entire Bible will be fulfilled by Yeshua the Messiah's completed mission when he returns to reign in an age of peace and justice which God will establish through him. Yeshua WILL return to rule from the Davidic throne in Jerusalem. That glorious Messianic hope and sure future event will be a global, benevolent Kingship over all mankind during which his current and past devotees will share in his rule and be greatly rewarded. Anyone who opposes or teaches contrary to the sure return and EARTHLY (vs. in "heaven") rule of Yeshua is an anti-missionary because he/she teaches AGAINST the true "gospel" of the Kingdom. Eternal life through Yeshua is certainly one component of the gospel BUT it is NOT the entire "gospel." The "heaven when you die" pagan Greek based teachings of traditional Christianity breed serious errors of interpretation and future hope.
3. Yeshua (or "Yahshua" if you prefer and falsely called "jesus") IS the Messiah but is NOT God.
4. Yeshua MAY have literally preexisted as the "angel of the LORD", "Messenger of His Presence", "Metatron," the "Wisdom" discussed in Proverbs chapter 8, or any other of many alleged preexistent forms of "christ."  Messiah was most certainly preexistent in the Divine Plan of God, which is what "logos" actually means, but whether or not he literally preexisted or possessed consciousness as a divine being is a subject of immense speculation.  The best possible source for an attempt at answering this question is the "Zohar," which is the foundational set of writings for Kabbalistic Judaism.  However, despite his possible preexistence, we must realize the following truth ...
5. I firmly believe, based upon the overwhelming evidence in Scripture, that while on earth as Messiah, Yeshua was truly a 100 percent man, versus the traditional Christian God-man, and in that respect no different from any other human.  He literally EARNED his glory through perfect, sinless obedience to YHWH God, and because of his efforts the door is open, with him as the door, for others to potentially merit eternal life.  Where he is unique is that he, UNlike other humans, was/is a FULLY EMPOWERED agent ("shaliach," or "sent one") of God.  Contrary to the commonly held erroneous Christian teaching, his sinlessness is NOT because he was born free of some sort of mystical "inherited" sin.  I reject and oppose false traditional Christian teachings that force Yeshua to be "God" (the intent of such manmade unscriptural doctrines in my opinion) or, at the very least a super-human or a "hybrid" human because he, unlike all other humans, was free from the so-called "stain" of the alleged "hereditary sin" gene.  Despite the overwhelming Scriptural evidence to the contrary, the deception of "hereditary sin" or "total depravity" conveniently and wrongly forces Yeshua to be God (or a hybrid super-human) for those who wish to idolatrously promote that he is God.
6. Yeshua's substitutionary death IS the means - the ONLY means - by which we merit entry (through his merit) into the eternal Kingdom; therefore, he is the ONLY way to God - even for devout, loving, obedient people (devout Jews for instance) who may receive the gift of eternal life without ever acknowledging his glorious achievements and position as Messiah.  I personally feel that God is so merciful that such will be the case; however, that does not remove our responsibility to advance Yeshua and the Kingdom of God to everyone with all the zeal and energy we possess.
7. After Yeshua's death he was bodily resurrected by the Living God, his God and ours, and is now awaiting the time when YHWH God directs him to return bodily to earth to consummate the gospel promise of the Kingdom of God on earth.
8. The Holy Scriptures, or Bible, which are composed of both the Tanakh (Older Testament) and the New Testament, are the inspired teachings of the Almighty God given through those whom He chose.  As long as those Scriptures are properly translated and interpreted they are a sure source of instruction to those seeking eternal life in the worldly paradise to come.
9. The Apostolic writings (New Testament) complete and elaborate upon the Eternal teachings (torah) of YHWH and the rest of theTanakh but do not annul them.  As long as they are interpreted from the proper Hebraic perspective they are equally as binding and useful as any other portion of Scripture, including the first 5 books of Moses (torah).
10. It IS necessary to sincerely strive to learn and obey God's Eternal teachings (torah) given through Moses.  God's forgiving grace does not remove our responsibility to prove our faith by our sincere effort to obey His instructions. The lack of a desire to learn God's teachings shows that one prefers to supercede YHWH's (God's) instructions (Torah) with their own, proves one does not truly love God, and shows the lawless (without Law) "believer" to be willfully rejecting God as their Eternal God and Master.  However, this "torah" (Eternal instructions) must NOT be confused with the alleged "torah" composing Rabbinic Judaism's man invented traditions and should be interpreted with an understanding of the effects of Yeshua's accomplishments presented in the New Testament and how they assist in providing a true and complete interpretation of God's eternal teachings.
11. I strongly oppose the seriously false teaching of "once saved always saved" and feel it may well be THE most dangerous, potentially damning teaching in all of Christianity because of how it promotes a "license to sin" slothful form of obedience, sinful behavior, and removes ALL fear of God's judgment.
12. Closely associated with the last point - I strongly oppose the "rapture" theory that so many Christians accept. I feel it is a grossly erroneous teaching that promotes a false hope among Christians that they will be spared tribulation in the last days. It is a particularly tragic belief that is widely popular within many Christian groups despite the fact that it directly contradicts Messiah's own descriptions of his return. It is, therefore, yet one more example showing that many Christians do not actually "follow Christ." Those who tightly cling to the "rapture" teaching run the risk of participating in a scenario where traditional Christians may oppose Messiah when he returns to rule and possibly even believe him to be the "antichrist" (which Christians also misunderstand) because of their false hope in a "rapture" before he rules and/or before end-time tribulations occur. There is also a risk that "rapture" believers will lose faith when they experience the hardships from which they expect to be spared.
13. I do not support "sacred name" fanaticism, which harshly judges and often even condemns those who do not use what they personally consider to be the "sacred name"; however, I do support promotion and use of the true names of God (Yahweh) and Messiah (Yeshua).
14. I forcefully reject the idea that "God's will" or desire, since will equals desire, is the cause of tragedy and pain in the lives of humans.  God's will (desire) is for all men to have eternal life, for all men to be one with him, for all men to be joyous, for all men to reap the incomprehensible pleasures He so desperately wishes for us.  Our sins or the sins of others, and the general situation resulting from mankind's freewill choice of rebellion against God create circumstances that bring pain and suffering, NOT God's will.  A perfect example is that of a child being killed in an auto accident with a drunk driver.  God did not kill the child. The drunk driver did because of the sin of drunkenness, a sinful society that glorifies drugs and rebellion, and a lack of care (love) for the well being of others.  Frankly, human society's general rebellion against God and embrace of all manner of sins is ultimately THE primary cause of all pain and suffering.  Of course it is true that God will and does punish wrongdoers - individuals, groups, and nations; however, such "tragedy" is due to that same freewill choice to rebel and/or sin NOT because God loves to inflict calamity just because He has the power to do so.  I do not apologize for standing to defend God's character against those who slanderously claim He desires (wills) to cause pain and suffering or who ignorantly accuse Him of being the cause of pain and suffering; thus driving people away from Him and making Him out to be some sort of sadistic, tyrannical, uncaring, monstrous god.  The idea that God desires to inflict inexcusable pain and suffering upon mankind is an extreme form of blasphemous, treacherous slander against the Almighty.
15. I reject the false teaching of eternal TORTURE, more commonly known as damnation in "hell" fire; however, I fully believe and advance the truth that eternal death after possible limited punishment does await the sinful and rebellious enemies of God.  Yes, the teaching of eternal damnation in a literal "hell fire" is more accurately described as the promotion of eternal torture.  The traditional Christian idea of "hell" equals "eternal torture."  That is a fact most "hell" teachers try to conceal.  Absurdly, those teaching it also attempt to persuade people that the God who implements this torture is "loving" and "merciful."  The obvious outrageous contradiction in the teaching that a "loving, merciful, just" God will eternally torture the vast majority of human beings - or even if it were just a small number - defies all measures of decency and common sense.  There is nothing imaginable that can equal such a ridiculous idea or so horribly defame the character of YHVH God.  The worst example of this is the Calvinistic (Reformed) teaching of "unconditional election," which basically promotes the idea that there is NOTHING anyone can do to change their eternal destiny, and if that destiny is "hell," so be it.  It defies common sense as well as any basic principles of mercy, love, and justice to think that God would punish someone's few years of sin (or none if you accept Calvinism) by forcing them to endure billions and billions and billions of years (infinite eternity) of unbelievably painful fiery torture!  It is yet another means by which Satan, through his generally unwitting agents, grossly misrepresents and slanders our Merciful Creator God.  I am composing articles to address this on my website; however, the Scriptural facts proving the notion of "hell" to be utterly false can be found in many places on the internet.  "Restoration Fellowship," which I show on my links page, and the Seventh Day Adventists church web sites should provide an excellent starting point for anyone interested in studying this issue.
