URGENT warning, definition, and rebuke of the rapid growth of Anti-Paulism among alleged "Messianics"

BEWARE true followers of Messiah! Satan is working. There is an emerging mad rush by some tragically misguided or outright counterfeit "Messianics" to embrace anti-Paul ideologies.

Anti-Paulism is a subset of counter-missionary (anti-missionary) goals, which makes it a very important and often used element in the wicked counter-missionary agenda. The goal of counter-missionaries is to attack in as many conceivable ways as possible the New Testament and the message presented therein, which of course includes the role, position, authority, and accomplishments of Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus the Christ). Specifically, anti-Paul ideology rejects Paul's epistles, the book of Acts and parts of 2 Peter (since they support Paul), and other New Testament writings. Sometimes instead of "rejecting" Paul anti-Paulists simply strongly "doubt" Paul's legitimacy as a preacher of truth or only "partially" accept Paul's writings. Regardless of whether it is rejection or doubting of Paul the end result is that the New Testament is reduced to a smoldering ruin, which of course is sometimes the ultimate objective of anti-Paulists.

Followers of this emerging end-time wickedness consider Paul one or more of the following: 1) an idiot, 2) a somewhat ignorant man who taught many errors, 3) an intentional "conspirator" who sought to undermine the true Messianic faith by promoting falsehood, 4) the "Beast," 5) a servant of Satan, or 6) the false "prophet" of Revelation. Many, if not most anti-Paulists despise Paul. It is common for anti-Paulists to label Paul with all manner of slanderous, wickedly vile accusations. You will often hear anti-Paulists refer to Christianity as "Paulianity," especially when they will not be overheard by others not yet aware of their hatred of Paul and Christianity. And yes, most anti-Paulists absolutely HATE Christianity and thus just about anything with the slightest "Christian" doctrinal scent. It is this unrealistic and fanatical dislike of "Christian" things that often drives them to such an extreme that they will distort the interpretation of whatever remains of the New Testament or refuse to accept other parts of the New Testament, such as what Paul had to say, in such a way as to define for themselves a pseudo-New Testament based counterfeit Messianism.

Anti-Paul teachings are not just against Paul. No. They are FAR worse since in truth they represent a vicious attack on New Testament writings as a reliable resource for truth. And therein lies the core heart of evil present in the anti-Paul agenda AND the primary factor ignored by most who become ensnared in anti-Paulism. The shocking level of disregard for this extremely severe issue among those who fall under the demonic spell of anti-Paulism or who sympathize and fellowship with anti-Paul activists reveals a stunning fault in not just their faith, but their understanding of the immensely crucial importance of the New Testament writings.

To be blunt, ALL who embrace, defend, sympathize with, or fellowship with anti-Paul crusaders have virtually no real love for the New Testament despite the likely denial of such among some who fellowship with such wickedness. Amazingly, most of them consider persons like myself to be harsh, unloving, divisive, "close-minded," and in general bad for standing firm AGAINST any sort of fellowship with anti-Paulists who shred OVER 60 PERCENT of the New Testament writings. It puzzles me how flippantly many so-called "Messianics" can toss the MAJORITY of the New Testament into the sewer and/or support an agenda that strikes at the very heart of New Testament reliability.

I make NO apology for choosing to avoid ANY fellowship with such demon infested evil!

(Update, August 2006! The person mentioned in the following response to someone attacking this article states on her website that my material is presented unedited in its "entirety". She is a liar! The following portion of this article in which I prove her wrong is PURPOSELY REMOVED from what she says is the "entirety" of my article and has been mysteriously missing from the "entirety" she claims to quote for several months. Hmm? It should be expected that she would fail to quote the material that proves her wrong. I expect that eventually she will learn that I've exposed her "entirety" lie and will only then suddenly "discover" what she heretofore chose not to quote for months while falsely claiming that she did not know. ha ha! Yeah Right. And if you believe her then given that you believe outrageous things I've got some lovely beach front property in the central African Sahara desert or central Rocky Mountains of the USA that you may want to buy.)

There is one particularly demonized and crazed anti-Paulist who has made opposition to Paul her total obsession, foremost calling, and THE central theme of her demonized website. Her hatred of Paul knows no bounds and is THE centerpiece of her entire "faith" system. She is a truly sick person who has long since lost her spiritual mind and ability to discern truth, has become an unwitting servant of Satan, and has allied herself with the enemies of the Messiah as defined in the New Testament. On her website she presented the following misinformation in reaction to my factual percentage (60 percent) shown above:

"How much room do Paul's epistles actually take up in the New Testament? Actually, the truth is, Paul's epistles only make up 25% of the total words of the New Testament. Even if, as you suggest, we shred 2nd Peter and Acts, that is still only 39% of the New Testament when combined with Paul's epistles. That leaves over 61% INTACT. If truth is important to us, we should not accept assumptions as though they are facts."

OK. Here's the simple numbers proving her statement to be utterly false and devious:

There are 27 books in the New Testament. (27)
Paul wrote 13 of those books, making him THE most prolific New Testament author by far! (13)
Acts very much SUPPORTS Paul, which means anyone who accepts Acts MUST accept Paul as a legitimate author. By the way, the person quoted above actually says she accepts Acts. That is IMPOSSIBLE since she rejects Paul; therefore, she once again is shown to be a deceiver indwelt by wicked inspirations. She cannot possibly accept the strongly pro-Paul position of Acts, which means she is lying when she states that Acts is acceptable to her. (1)
2 Peter very much SUPPORTS Paul in the 2 Peter 3:14-17. The counter-missionary false Messianic quoted also falsely claimed to fully accept 2 Peter; however, that is also IMPOSSIBLE since she rejects Paul. Of course, she may just reject where Peter shows unambiguous support for Paul. (1)
Since Luke wrote Acts, and despite what the demonized person stated about accepting Acts, then for anti-Paulists counter-missionaries to be consistent the gospel of Luke MUST also be - at the very least - "doubted" by anti-Paulists. (1)
Most scholars believe Paul wrote the book of Hebrews. (1)

Now for the FACTUAL math:

Assuming ONLY Paul's epistles are rejected we get 13/27 = 48 percent of the New Testament books are rejected! The unwitting servant of Satan quoted above deceptively stated that Paul's writings comprise 25% of the New Testament. I have just shown that 25% is barely one-half of the total number of books that are actually authored by Paul. I haven't done a "word count" to check, but regardless, her saying that only 25% of the New Testament is affected when Paul is rejected is a gross and intentional effort at misinformation - a lie!
Acts MUST be added to the books rejected by anti-Paulists despite the fact that the demonized person wickedly claims otherwise. Read the book of Acts and judge for yourself if it supports Paul or not. It very much DOES support Paul; therefore, unless she is just moronically stupid she must see that Acts cannot be retained if Paul is rejected. But of course she is not stupid. She is simply demonized and beyond the reach of reason due to the strong power Satan's hatred of Messiah and Messianic truth holds over her. So, when Acts is added we see that now 14/27 = 52 percent of the New Testament books MUST be rejected by anti-Paulists.
Now there is 2 Peter. Since Peter strongly endorses Paul his words MUST now also be "suspected" for consistency to be maintained by anti-Paulists. That adds to 15/27 = 56 percent of the New Testament books are rejected! As you can see, the percentage of the New Testament rejected or "doubted" by anti-Paulists counter-missionaries is adding up, and the 25% and 39% statements from the sadly demonic counter-missionary website author are being proven to be lies and intentional misrepresentation of the facts.
Let's now add the gospel of Luke since consistency by anti-Paulists requires that he must be considered a "co-conspirator" with Paul due to his VERY powerful endorsement of Paul in Acts. So we now have 16/27 = 59 percent of the New Testament books are rejected!
Finally, the book of Hebrews MUST fall under "suspicion" by anti-Paulists since so many scholars feel it was authored by Paul. So we now have 17/27 = 63 percent of the New Testament books are rejected!
At a bare minimum, Paul's epistles and Acts MUST be rejected by anti-Paulists counter-missionaries; therefore, a MINIMUM of at least 52 percent of the New Testament books are flushed into the sewer by anti-Paulists. For them to claim otherwise is nothing less that blatant, wicked, demonic LIES!
When the other books that are necessary for anti-Paulists to be consistent are counted we see that, indeed, 63 percent of the New Testament books must either be rejected or "doubted" by anti-Paulists; thus, my statement that "over 60 percent" of the New Testament is endangered by anti-Paulists is proven correct. Furthermore, the wicked servant of Satan's claim that 61% of the New Testament remains "intact" when Paul is rejected and that only 25% to 39% is actually affected is proven quite easily to be a despicable lie!

So, through simple math I have proven that the MAJORITY of the New Testament books must be rejected by anti-Paulists. I have also exposed the blatant deception and lies of the demonized servant of Satan from whom I quoted previously. Take note of her statement. It represents an excellent example of the standard methods of trickery and misrepresentation of facts used among anti-Paulists as they try to conceal the actual devastation they bring upon the New Testament with their anti-Paulists evil. I guess the fact that anti-Paulists counter-missionaries are under demonic guidance causes them to loose their ability to do simple math. Such is obviously the case in the the quote from the vehement anti-Paulists website shown above.

Significantly, anti-Paulists present The Eternal Living God as powerless to guide and nurture the canonization of the New Testament in such a way as to retain truth. They are constantly presenting the view that the New Testament is hopelessly corrupt and unreliable. It is a fact that the New Testament writings are not 100 percent perfect and that a small level of corruption and translation error exists; however, they are HIGHLY reliable and, importantly, self-correcting. "Perfection" is totally unnecessary for truth to be transmitted as long as "reliability" is present.

Anti-Paulists quite literally make YHWH The Living God out to be a rather weak pawn of Satan or error-prone scribes and "church fathers" - a feeble and helpless God who was unable to guide a reliable transmittal of the Messianic writings. In this area anti-Paulists are stupid and blatant blasphemers of the Almighty Living God. Their rejection of God's guiding hand is a particularly insidious characteristic they possess and one for which they are deserving of the harshest rebuke from YHWH. In this particular characteristic is found a definite anti-YHWH mindset - a mindset that is quite literally against The Living God Himself! Notably, they and their fellow counter-missionaries (at least those of a Judaic persuasion) do not hold the same view of the Tanakh (Tah-NOCK, which is the Older Testament) even though there are far FEWER manuscripts with which to check accuracy and there were MANY more chances and MUCH more time for corruption to occur. The revolting double standard they apply to the New Testament versus the Tanakh is obvious.

They generally display very negative judgments and mockery of anyone who considers the New Testament writings to be ESSENTIAL and RELIABLE words of ultimate truth. They are usually legalistic in their view of Scripture, which is not surprising since ALL of them either reduce or eliminate the atoning accomplishments of Messiah and often have little desire to give glory, honor, praise, and thanksgiving to Messiah - a fact that was proven one night when for almost 2 hours some of them could not find it within themselves to do so. Of course, they would likely claim otherwise publicly in hopes of catching more people in their spider's web of deceit. They are the worst sort of hypocrites as they often conceal their anti-Paul views so as to lure people into their demonic trap.

Anti-Paulists display a particularly high level of ignorance when it comes to understanding the "Rabbinic method." In fact this is a fundamental flaw in their understanding. Paul was a Pharisaic rabbi who followed typical rabbinic teaching methods. Frankly, Yeshua the Messiah did the exact same thing in his teachings. In rabbinic writings it is very common - effectively a standard technique - for a verse or set of verses to be mentioned and then great flexibility to be used in an expansion of application for that verse(s). When one looks at the verse(s) it is sometimes difficult to ascertain how the rabbi arrived at his conclusions since, often, the specific original context of the verse(s) does not appear to support his point and may specifically refer to something entirely different. In many cases the verses are combined from different areas of Scripture for the purpose of the teaching being given.

This is very similar to the universal approach ALL readers and teachers of Scripture utilize. We ALL sometimes select verses that may not exactly apply yet still generally applies to what we hope to convey. Well, anti-Paulists ignorant of rabbinic methods, lacking basic common sense, and usually beyond the reach of reason DEMAND that when Paul teaches something any verses utilized must PERFECTLY match the original context from which they were taken. They refuse to allow ANY flexibility in Paul's case as they display gross ignorance of rabbinic methods and a blundering lack of simple common sense; or, as is likely the case, they so despise Paul and his teachings that they refuse to apply their common sense or allow him any rabbinic flexibility. All one has to do is lightly scan rabbinic teachings, particularly the Talmudic writings, and my point is proven beyond doubt.

In one particular case an individual with whom I once enjoyed close fellowship considers such ignorant demands regarding Paul's use of Scripture to be a primary argument against Paul. Yet all it really proves is that he and those who agree with him are uninformed and boorishly bias-blinded against Paul. Of course, due to his current zealous anti-Paul counter-missionary crusade our fellowship is ended unless and until he departs from the ranks of Satan's unwitting disciples.

Perhaps one of the more sinister characteristics of anti-Paulists is how they hypocritically infiltrate Christian/Messianic areas claiming to be followers of Messiah. For instance, there is a group that meets within the Paltalk voice/chat community that dares to LIE by falsifying themselves as Messianics in the "Christianity" category of Paltalk discussion groups. How dare they blaspheme and lie by making such a blatantly FALSE claim while they work to further counter-missionary goals! They are very much AGAINST true Messianism (Christianity) due the basic fact that they teach AGAINST the reliability of the New Testament. Nevertheless, they dare to infiltrate Messiah's followers with a goal of raiding the flock. Sadly, many of the more ignorant or naively impressionable "sheep" have already become victims. May YHWH deal out a double measure of His wrath against anti-Paulist leaders for their counter-missionary efforts.

Anti-Paulists generally "do what is right in their own eyes" as they fashion together their own private "Messiah" figure and teachings to suit their personal anti-New Testament preferences instead of the Messiah and teachings revealed under the inspiration of New Testament authors, which of course includes Paul as a foremost author.

Anti-Paulists purposely ignore and try to avoid discussion of the "fruit" of their demonic agenda which is almost ALWAYS either destruction of or severe damage to a person's Messianic faith due to the fact that a person's faith in the New Testament writings becomes seriously harmed. They seem to either have zero concern for the extreme level of damage that often results in the faith of others or they actually hope it occurs. Raw disdain for the New Testament is not uncommon among anti-Paulists.

The disregard of Messiah's direct teaching (among those few who still claim reverence for what is left of the New Testament after anti-Paulism butchery) of "you will know them by their fruits" regarding the damaging "fruit" of the anti-Paul ideology is particularly puzzling and tragic. The obvious Messianic faith damaging "fruit" is all the evidence needed to prove that the anti-Paul agenda is inspired by the Devil. They have no concern for testing the "fruit" of their monstrously distorted faith or, in many cases, actually wish for that very "fruit" to be harvested.

In a word, anti-Paulists are deceived counter-missionary fools who have succumbed to one of Satan's seductive agendas and who have now joined the Devil's ranks to advance that very agenda. Anti-Paulism is blatantly counter-missionary and a joyful victory for Satan.

Anti-Paulism represents just one example of end-time deception being taught by mockers and scoffers of New Testament reliability! And let there be no doubt, anti-Paulists DEFINITELY mock and scoff at the New Testament writings. For them to deny such is nothing short of sickening lies!

By the way, it is no coincidence that it is within PAUL'S writings that we find much of the warning against end-time working of Satan. Of course, by teaching against Paul and fooling others into following their lead they can successfully wipe such warnings from the minds of their blind followers.

It is crucial to be on guard for the trickery used by anti-Paulists and, for that matter, all counter-missionaries. They often, but not always, present a friendly face and appear at first to largely support New Testament teachings. They are usually smooth and sly speakers who claim to be followers of Messiah and who appear well informed. Of course Satan has always been a smooth and sly speaker as well as a well informed liar, and anti-Paulists often mimic their actual "leader" (Satan) very well in these areas. However, their agenda is easily discerned by anyone with even the slightest ability of discernment. With such discernment it is very easy to recognize that they actually work feverishly and with skillful cunning to destroy your faith in the New Testament even though they sometimes deceitfully deny such is their aim! Deceit is commonplace within their ranks.

Anti-Paulism is directly and simply ANTI-MESSIAH or ANTICHRIST since it attacks THE fundamental Messianic writings in which Messiah, his position, accomplishments, and the basic Messianic faith system are revealed.

They are indeed FALSE Messianics. They are Satan's unwitting servants "disguised as angels of light." Sadly - VERY sadly - many are being lead like sheep to the slaughter into embracing Satan's anti-Paul evangelistic crusade. MANY are loosing their "first love" and all but abandoning the New Testament as reliable due to the demonic teachings of anti-Paulists.

Beware the web of deceit and death. BEWARE Satan's anti-Paul disciples!
