- YHVH, which is pronounced as YaHVaH
or YaHWaH. In addition we will also use our Heavenly Father’s
attribute/title, which is Elohim rather than “God,” which
sadly is the name of a pagan god. In addition we also love to use the actual
and real Name of our beloved Messiah which is 
- Yahushua or Yahshua in short, for
this is our Saviours original Hebrew Name as given to Him at birth in Lukas
- Luke 1:31. This was the only Name ever used when He was on the earth by His
family, disciples and His followers OVER THE centuries, even until today!
However, it was changed to a foreign name by the founder of the new
“pagan church of
However, the original parts of the Scriptures
are made up of individual books and each book of the Tanach – Old
Covenant was written on a parchment “scroll,” which parts of it was
later combined onto one large scroll known as the “Torah” for the
use in the Synagogue’s. Today these can also be found in book form. But a
complete Hebrew version of the Tanach is also in print as is Tanach – Old
Covenant combined with the Brit Chadashah – New Covenant, but this is now
generally known as “biblios” or “biblion” in Greek or
better known as the “Bible.” However, those Greek words do not
refer to the complete meaning to the wonderful Word of YaHVaH Elohim that we
know as the blessed “Scriptures.”
We may ask; “When was the word ‘Bible’ was first used?” In fact it was around 400AD; prior to that time it had always been known as the “Scriptures” or the “Word.” Did you realise that “biblios” is the name of a pagan goddess?
In ancient days all documents were written on
papyrus, which was imported from
Therefore beloved, the truth is simple true believers in Yahushua THE Messiah should never use the word “Bible,” for its origins are far from what we understand it to be today! Like so many things that we are unaware of these days, words have meanings that so often we have no idea about. Although we should know that every day and month is named after a pagan god, based on Pope Gregory evils pagan calendar. And then there are so many other things that surround us with clever inclusions and we must always be aware of these and yet this word has made it to the cover of the Word itself!
The Apostle Shaul of
“What fellowship can light have with darkness?” 2 Corinthians 6:14.
The answer is simply, NONE – for if you are a genuine believer in the blessed Word of YaHVaH Elohim and He … Who is the Word you cannot use this evil pagan word! But let’s see what Yochanan - John has to say and remind us who our loving Saviour really is?
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. He was in the beginning with Elohim.” Yochanan - John 1:1-2.
However to name the book that contains the precious Word of our Creator YaHVaH Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name, with a name that is completely pagan is just another clever way that Satan - the adversaries of Yahushua THE Messiah, and all the way back in the early days, when that evil early pagan church was originally corrupted when a great sin came in at a time by that evil sorcerer who became the very first bishop of Rome, whose name was Simon (Peter) Magnus, an ex Babylonian priest who greatly offended the Apostle Shime’on ben Yochanan – called Peter, and that wicked man wanted to become an apostle and buy his way in, but of course he was refused! You can read the details in the Book of Acts chapter 8 and below, as well as in my special study online that reveals on how the Church of Rome really began? Link is at the bottom of the page.
“But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of Elohim. And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries. But when they believed Fillipos - Philip preaching the things concerning the Kingdom of Elohim, and the name of Yahushua the Messiah, they were immersed - baptised, both men and women. Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was immersed, he continued with Filippos - Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done. Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that the Samaritans had received the word of Elohim, they sent unto them Shime’on - Peter and Yochanan - John: Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Sanctified Spirit: For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were Immersed in the Name of the Master Yahushua. Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Sanctified Spirit. And when Simon (the Samaritan) saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Sanctified Spirit was given, he offered them money, saying, ‘Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Sanctified Spirit.’ But Shime’on - Peter said unto him, ‘Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of Elohim may be purchased with money. Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of Elohim. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray Elohim, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.’ Then answered Simon, and said, ‘Pray ye to YHVH for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.’” Acts 8:9-24. KJV.
After this event this evil man moved to
It is vital to understand that the Apostle,
who is generally known as “Peter the Rock,” (Shime’on ben
Yochanan) who so sadly refused to know our Saviour before the cock crowed,
never during his life visited
For interest the word “Biblios”
did not come on the scene during this evil man’s time, for he was the
convener of this satanically inspired church of a new messiah whose name would
not be the one found in the original writings of the Gospels, which was - Yahushua, but instead it became a totally foreign name “Iesous
– Jesus.” Again there is a special study on this subject, see the
links at the bottom of the page.
Now beloved I am going to ask this simple
question: How can any true believer in Him Who gave His life for you, shed His
blood for you, in order that you may have your sins forgiven and have life
eternal, in the
“You shall have no other gods before Me.” Shemos - Exodus 20:3.
“… for I, YHVH your Elohim, am a jealous Elohim, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers” Shemos - Exodus 20 20:5.
Let the faithful in Messiah Yahushua, return in calling Elohim’s Word as either “The Scriptures,” or “The Word of Elohim,” that contains; 1. The “Torah” - being the Five Books of Moshe - Moses. 2. The “Tanach” the whole OLD Covenant, and 3. The “Brit Chadashah” the NEW Covenant.
However, beloved, no matter what, we MUST
refrain from using a name that belongs in the “pit.”
It should also be noted, that the “OLD
Covenant” in today’s christian “Bibles” is based on the
Greek Septuagint LXX, and NOT from the (original) Hebrew Tanach! It
therefore differs in 1. In structure. 2. Order. 3. And
also in translation, compared to that of the original Tanach – Old
Covenant in some parts. We know that the Tanach was written in Hebrew, which is
a perfect language. There is also very small amount of Aramaic. The oldest
surviving ancient texts such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, that the authors has seen
are from the book of Yeshayahu - Isaiah and what these texts have proven is
that these ancient scrolls when it was compared with today’s modern
version of the Tanach that are used in the Jewish Synagogues today is they are
100% accurate, but not what is written in the normal
“Bible’s” or other versions, etc.
Whereas quotations and allusions to the modern
“Old Covenant” found in the Brit Chadashah – the New
Covenant depend entirely on the
Septuagint, rather than the original Hebrew text of the Tanach. Of course not
one of the Apostles would have used Greek as their language of choice of
writing; for we need to remember that they were simple fishermen who did not
speak a word of Greek, for that was a foreign language, possibly later having
travelled and writing some of their letters. And although the common language
of the day in Judea may have been Aramaic, being a derivative from the Hebrew,
as it is done to this very day Hebrew is used when in prayer be it in private
or publicly, whilst reading the Torah - the Scriptures, both in Synagogues or
in the Temple as well as when discussing and writing the Word of Elohim, for it
was regarded as a sin to do otherwise during those days! Thus as the Scriptures
in Israel were entirely in Hebrew, the Apostles as well as their scribes would
not have even considered writing the Gospels in any other language other than
in Hebrew and again we have complete proof of that fact now at this time of
history. Again, see the link at bottom of this page.
In addition, we should realise that the
Septuagint was an erroneous translation, written during the time when there
were those of
Thus, we have been greatly blessed and have seen His hand in so many wonderful events and in lives touched. But thanks to my dear brother in Him, Elohim has given us both a blessed understanding of Hebrew and Greek to share with our beloved ones in Messiah! This has been just a short explanation how so much of our teaching has come about, and I am grateful to our Heavenly Father for His blessed Word of Truth, for “the truth will set you free.”
“If you hold to My teaching, you are really My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Yochanan - John 8:31-32.
