they are a valuable guide and it will certainly provide us with guidance and
illuminate the sheer beauty and the fullness of YHVH’s most blessed Word.
1. Who was YHVH Elohim, blessed be His Holy Name speaking to?
2. When was it said?
3. How was His Word understood at the time it was spoken/given?
I do believe
that these three points are most relevant to our understanding of 1. What
the Almighty is saying at the time – 2. As well as what it means to us
today - and 3. Especially to you and me right now!

However, it was not long after Benedict XVI had departed, the
Cardinals from around the world came together at the Vatican and entered the
Sistine Chapel and what was considered to be relatively fast, it was on the
second day of their sitting and casting votes, they elected their new leader on
March 13, 2013. But what was so very different this time was that their new
Pope was in fact a Jesuit priest, who was sworn in with the evil and infamous
“Jesuit (blood drawing) Oath,” and he had to sign an agreement by
using his own blood that he had drawn from his chest with a knife that both he
and the Jesuit Superior General held together during the entire ceremony, he
held the blade and the Superior General held the handle! The Jesuits were
formed by an ex Knight who turned to Catholicism and became a priest and in
1541 he established this evil organisation known as the Jesuits, who are rather
militant in many ways, but they will even take on any guise that will suit them
in order to take over churches or organisations. Read my study regarding

ask myself, why do I feel so tense about this man for he is being called
“The Pope for the people.” He has slowly given into homosexuality
and is easing the churches stand on them, and is also now not as hard on
abortion as well as priest marrying. This is a whole new Pope for the End days
and he is without a doubt preparing the way for the end times! Yes, he
certainly comes across as a humble man and he certainly seems to be liked by so
many, and I have heard that he is admired by almost all persuasions, and I do
mean people from the vast majority of faiths. Now that is what I call the
perfect deception for a pagan faith that is ruled by
A Future False Pease Maker:
Now just think about it, for years it has been said that people will not easily take to the coming of a new world leader, and I am speaking of course of that false peacemaker, who will be the Anti-Messiah (Christ)! But I say, yes they will for he will be just like this man, very humble, most kind and so very likable. But Anti-Messiah will not be a Pope, but the Pope could well be the false prophet in the scheme of things. But, today the Pope is preparing the way for what is to come in the future in what is what we know a very evil world!

more about the beginnings of the Roman Catholic Church!

May I say as we continue, please never trust man, no not even this teacher, for I also can make mistakes, for if what I say does not line up with the blessed Word of our Heavenly Father then throw it out with the dish water. But, I ask you to pray to the Father in the most wonderful and blessed Name of Yahushua (Yeshua) our loving Saviour, and ask that He will guide and provide you with discernment as you study this work!

In addition some other details will come from recorded history and some well know historians, including one who was present at the time, and although I known that what is presented is fully backed up, you still need to follow everything up for yourself, as well as through prayer and not through another person, for they, such as pastors or priests will all have their well prepared stock answers, for like so many they live in a world of traditions and that is so sad! I know all the aforementioned so well for as a Hebrew, I lived a life full of “rabbinic traditions” and “vain and repetitious prayers,” but when I was miraculously redeemed by the shed Blood of the Lamb of Elohim, all traditions were thrown out of my life, and only His Word became part of my life, in fact the first seven years I read only the blessed Scriptures and no other writings by any man! This way I could not be indoctrinated by erroneous teachings, Only His Word would do, for nothing else was good enough! Blessed be His Sanctified Name! And my teaching continues on this basis to this day.

The Man who changed the
church and the World to this Day!
I am sure many will realise that the pagan church of Rome had its
beginnings during the days of the Apostles. But what the tragedy really is that
this conflict did not just remain within the Roman Catholic church, but it
together with much of its erroneous pagan doctrines were transferred into her
harlot daughters who decided to go their own separate ways, being 98% of the
Protestant churches. Many had thought that they would dump some of the
“You shall not make unto yourself any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth below.” Shemos - Exodus 20:4.
Go into any Lutheran church and you will find
statues and images, as well as stained glass windows with depictions all of
which are graven! In addition
Luther expressed his virulent opinion of the
Jews very freely, by calling them “venomous and virulent,”
“thieves and brigands,” and “disgusting vermin,” and
encouraged christian princes to take the following action; “their
Synagogues should be set on fire and whatever does not burn up should be
covered or spread over with dirt so that no one may ever be able to see a
cinder or stone of it.”
In 1920, a young lecturer gave an impassioned address entitled; “Why we are against the Jews.”
The name of this young speaker was none other than
However, the sad truth is that there are so many pagan ideologies
and doctrines in the beginnings of church of Rome that many of these crept in
all thanks to one man by the most crafty and most evil of beings HaSatan, or
This man
This evil man born in the village of Gitta in Samaria, but we first need to look at some of the background of the Samaritans as well the meaning of this person’s name. We will then look into the new "religion" that he established and ask “who was he?” Although, be advised that I may not go through all the issues in the order as mentioned.
The Samaritans’:
Thus, there was no great love lost between the two nations and this satanic man came from this background, whilst the men of faith in Messiah still went in to preach the Good News to all sinners in Samaria for that is where the Gospel was greatly needed, and praise be to our Saviour, many did come to Yahushua and were redeemed!
Let us now read a part of the Word it clearly describes that evil
man concerned, for he is to be found in the Book of Acts, and the vital part
comes when he actually meets the man he desires to be

Now when the Apostles that were at Jerusalem
and heard that the Samaritans had received the Word of Elohim, they sent unto
them Shime’on ben Yochanan - Peter and Yochanan - John: Who, when they
had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit: For as
yet he had fallen upon any of them: only they were baptised in the Name of the
Master, Yahushua. Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the
Holy Spirit. And when
As we can so clearly see from this Scripture, that Satan was already
perfecting a counterfeit, an “anti-messiah” type, who was working
right in very the backyard of Messiah's much loved Apostles and he even had a

existence:
Amazingly to this very day there are still countless images and
mosaics of him they still call “
Christian ”
Simon (Peter) Magnus the Sorcerer arrived at Rome with the idea of convincing these peoples through his satanic powers and tricks of elevation, etc, that he indeed was a man of a god, and he instituted a new religion carried a mixture of Egyptian, Babylonian, Greek and Roman pagan ideas combined and wrapped up with his new “chrestos” = “christian” names and identities. Thus he wove all these into a unified system of his own, that at first became known as a sect called the “Simonians.”
We need to understand that there was no word in use for the faithful in the Body of the Faithful in Messiah; words used were the brethren, faithful, believers, Ekklesia and other similar words. Not even Messianic. There were some who had picked up the two special Words of Yahushua during his teachings in Lucas – Luke 12: 32 – “Little Flock” and were using that as designating themselves, for the verse that came with it applied directly to them and they had a desire to follow it!
“Do not be afraid, little flock, for
your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and
give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a
treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no
moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
What
The Greek faithful in Yahushua THE
Messiah originally used the word “Messias” being a transliteration
for the Hebrew “Mashiach” that means “Anointed” or
“Messiah.” However, it was obvious that the word “
But as it was originally Messias,
the question begs, “Where did this brand new word, a word that did not
exist at the time, come from?” And friends, that is a question that must
be answered and be made clear!
There is an ancient “christian” inscription in existence that goes back to 318 A.D. and it states: “The Lord and Saviour Jesus the Good.” Now interestingly it is the word “Good” that is in question here and very soon you will understand why.
When it came to presenting details, such as names and titles of a new faith it would be far more acceptable to the Greek and Roman pagans who were worshiping their many god’s, and thus it was better to give them names that the Romans, as well as the Greeks, were more used to. Therefore, rather than retaining the original Hebrew “Mashiach” or “Messias” Simon Magnus decided to use the title, or in this case the name of their pagan god’s “Chreston” and “Chrestos.” Now why should that not surprise us?
According to the Interpreter’s “Dictionary of the
Bible,” the word “
The German “Real-encyclopaedie,” states that an
inscription of “Chrestos is to be seen on an ancient
What has all the above taught us? Obviously that this man was completely evil and that he commenced a pagan “christian church,” and having read what we just have above, and pray that you would start any study prayerfully, that you will have been shown that the very word “christian” is in fact pagan itself, thus if you call yourself a christian you are connecting yourself with a pagan sun god and the god judge of Hades!
I am sure that by now you will noted that we never call ourselves by that evil name, but rather as the “faithful in Messiah,” or by the name our beloved Saviour used - the “Little Flock.” Regarding using a name, remember the Word of the Almighty!
“And
in all that I have said to you, beware
and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.” Shemos - Exodus 23:13.

Of course
The Proof that the Apostle
Shime’on - Peter was NOT the First Pope!
Please Note, and note it very clearly, for below I will provide a
number of solid Scriptural proofs that the
I ask you beloved that you mark each one in your own Scriptures and understand them well, in order that you will not be deceived again! The entire Roman Catholic Church fundamental doctrine depends upon one single claim. And that claim is as follows:
Simon
Magnus Rome
and the founder of the Roman Catholic Church!
The teaching of Catholic historians tells us that
But the question is, can this be really true?
We need to go back once more to one of the early authors such as Justin Martyr, being one of them, who gave clear information that completely negated Peter’s supposed Roman bishopric. This is admitted by virtually every single scholar except the most conservative Roman Catholics of course! (this is also confirmed in Encyclopaedia Biblica, col. 4554).
But, more importantly than this are the blessed records found in the writings of the “Brit Chadashah,” the “New Covenant” that absolutely refutes the “Roman Catholic” claim, for their problem is, that they just do not know their Scriptures well enough and they also use additional writings that were never included in the Scriptures, thus not valid! The Catholic Bible is a man’s version, and certainly far from the authorised one!
Beloved, it is time that the greater church opens its eyes to the
truth of the matter, for the truth is so clearly revealed in the Word of YaHVaH
Elohim, blessed be His Holy Name! The
Teachings from the blessed Word of Elohim:
As I stated earlier there are a good number of Major Scriptural New
Covenant proofs that completely disprove the claim that the
Evidence Nr. One:
“But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel
of the un-circumcision (the Gentiles) was committed unto me (Shaul -
Having read the Word, we have seen it in the very clearest of
language. The fact is that Yahushua had commissioned Shaul -
"And when Ya’akov - James, Kepha - Peter, and Yochanan - John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace (i.e., the gift or office) that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision” Galatians 2:9.
Shaul again confirmed his special office as “the apostle to the Gentiles”;
“To whom I am appointed a preacher and
an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.” 2
It has become quite obvious that so far
Evidence Nr. Two:
“Because of the grace Elohim gave me to be a minister of Messiah Yahushua to the Gentiles with the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of Elohim, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to Elohim, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:15-16.
We already know that Shaul -
But let us now look at Romans Chapter 1 and verses 1, 7 and chapter 15, where Shaul of Tarsus – Paul made it absolutely 100% clear what his mission was to the Romans and that no one had proceeded him in sharing the Gospel in Rome!
“Shaul, a bondservant of Yahushua the Messiah (Yeshua the Messias), called to be an Apostle, separated to the Gospel (Good News) of Elohim … To all who are in Rome, beloved of Elohim, called to be saints (future tense) … That is why I am so eager to preach the Gospel also to you who are at Rome.”
However, it is in chapter 15 of Romans we find the absolute and very
clear proof that
“It has always been my ambition to preach the Gospel where Messiah was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation. Rather, as it is written: ‘Those who were not told about Him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.’” Romans 15:20-21.
Now that makes it very clear indeed that the Gospel had NEVEL been
preached officially by anyone, certainly not by the chief of all the Apostles,
Why is it you do not know this?
In answer to the question I have posed above, let me put it in an
old-fashioned terminology and I am sorry, but … “It is as plain as Day.” Yet men sadly have no desire to believe the TRUTH of
The truth is, that it has been so very clearly written in the Word,
but the churches for some reason during the past two thousand years bothered to
take any notice of 1. Acts Chapter 8. 2. Simon Magnus’ evil ways, being a
pagan “sorcerer” pretending to be a believer, then desiring to buy
an apostleship and his wicked and evil religion in
“If you take
Thus the truth is, that it was Shaul - Paul who established a
faithful Ekklesia (fellowship) in Rome, people who came to believe in the one
true YaHVaH Elohim of Israel, and His Only Begotten Son, with the full
understanding of Yochanan - John chapter 1:1-5, that He was, and is the Word,
and that the Word is Elohim! That Yahushua (not
Shaul - Paul was a faithful servant in all this, for this is just what he taught and all the faithful in those days continued to uphold the Seventh day Sabbath, as well as the Passover remembering the Death and the resurrection of our beloved Saviour, for the whole Passover story was prophetic and a picture of Yahushua’s life, death and resurrection! Tragically, later many would die by the hands of Rome, for the pagan sun worshipping emperor Constantine would change the law and change the day to a SUNday, being the pagan day of worship for Mithra the sun god, yet many of the true and faithful ones in Messiah who continued to uphold Elohim’s law, were killed during the fourth century!
Thus the blessed Scriptures has proved that the Apostle
Shime’on - Peter could not have “founded” that new and evil

Who Were the Pagan Gods Known as “Peters – Patres”:
Surprising as it may sound, it is a well-known fact among students of ancient religion, that the chief pagan gods worshipped in the early civilizations were generally known by the name “Peter or Patres” It is also known that the priests of those heathen gods were also called “Peters or Patres” That same name be it in one form or another, was even applied to the pagan temples consecrated to those gods.
At this point, I need to add the Apostle Shime’on ben Yochanan
should in reality never be known as Peter, for it is as you will have guessed a
pagan name that was given to him, by guess who? The pagan church of
Note what Bryant
said in his work “Ancient Mythology”:
“Not only the gods, but the Hierophantae [special priests], in most temples; and those priests in particular, who were occupied in the celebration of mysteries, were styled Patres.” (Ancient Mythology vol. 1, p. 354).
We should understand that this is significant for the word
“Patre” is the same as “Pator” or “
“Patre was undoubtedly a religious term … the same as Pator and Patora.” (p. 354).
Thus the ancient pagan gods had their priests who were their
ministers and their sacred sanctuaries, their temples and they were all called
Pators or

Please note that in Bereshis - Genesis 41:8, in his Hebrew Lexicon
Davidson shows that the consonantal word P-T-R, “patar” or
“peter” signifies “to interpret” or
“interpretation” (p. 638; of Brown, Driver, Briggs, p. 837; and in
Gesenius, p. 877 and p. 843).
Bunson in his Hieroglyph, page 545, makes this even clearer where he
shows that the Egyptians, as the Word also indicates called their
“interpreters” or priests: Petr, that is
The term
"The word Pater, when used in the religious addresses of the Greeks and Romans, meant not, as is supposed, a father or parent; but related to the divine influence of the Deity, called by the people of the East, Pator.” (Ibid., p. 353).
In many ancient religions the father was the chief priest of the family. That is the reason the head of the family became known as “Pator” or "Father." The father, because of his priestly position, became known as the “Archpator,” or, as it is now commonly rendered, “Patriarch.” This is how the term Pator came to signify, in a secular sense, “a father.” But originally, it always meant, “interpreter” especially one of the mystery pagan religions!

However, the truth is that
Blessed be His Holy Name, YaHVaH Elohim tells us that these Samaritans, as they are called, were claiming to be the “true people of Elohim” However, whilst saying this, they were practicing pagan rituals that came directly from Babylon as stated in 2 Melachim – 2 Kings 17:41;
“However every nation continued to make gods of its own, and put them in the shrines on the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in the cities where they dwelt … To this day they continue practicing the former rituals … So these nations feared YHVH, yet served their carved images; also their children and their children's children have continued doing as their fathers did, even to this day.” 2 Melachim – 2 Kings 17:2, 34, 41.
This was the religious world that

Having felt that he was so brutally rejected by Shime’on - Kepha the Saviour’s Apostle, Simon began to fashion his own new version of a “messiah based” religion one of which that he would become the head of and it would be designed to completely overthrow those who were teaching the true faith of Elohim and the Gospel of Yahushua THE Messiah!.
Simon Magnus’ idea was to blend together a combination of
prime Babylonian, and Greek with Roman teachings with some of the teachings
regarding Judean Messiah, but he had to make some dramatic changes, especially
the most blessed Name of our Saviour and in due course when the Gospels came
into being, and they were in Hebrew, the order from the Papacy was that they
had to be translated into Greek. This way the Messiah’s Name could be
easily altered to “Iesous” (
The Name of our Blessed Redeemer!
The first question you may ask is this
… “How do I know that “Iesous”
Beloved that is very simple to answer
for all we have to do is to look at another well-known person in the blessed
Scriptures and that is Moshe’s (
The first translation of the Tanach -
Hebrew for Old Covenant, was compiled by seventy rabbinic scholars around the
third century B.C., into Greek, for it was a time when
When this orthodox Hebrew came to know his Lord and Saviour through what can only be called a miracle in 1977, and the Father instructed this Hebrew new believer to only study His Word in the Hebrew for the next seven years and also in Greek. I had no idea how I would read the Brit Chadashah, New Covenant in Greek, but, blessed be He, a wonderful and faithful Greek suddenly came on the scene about five years later and this wonderful brother who has been in ministry with me ever since 1982 and has he travelled the world sharing the blessed Word he has been a great assistance with the Greek! Thus I discovered that Greek is an interesting language! But the point is that I have been completely protected from church theology and everything I know comes from His precious Word alone!
It is most interesting to note that there are eight Greek letter combinations that are known as “dipthongs” one of these is ou - if a Greek font is not available to you these are the letters “Omicron” and “Upilson” and look much like (ov). However, they all end up sounding much like a single sound, or letter. “Gia” is pronounced much like the Dutch “Ja.” Thus it sounds much like the blessed Name YAH, as in HalleluYAH.
Thus, having read the aforementioned,
we need to realise that our beloved Saviour and
The question begs, when we look up the
later editions of the Septuagint which was changed by, guess who? The
But tragically, the pagan church did the same with the most beloved Name of our Saviour Yahushua, for they changed it to the pagan name “Iesous” as well!
But we all should ask this question;
“Why was the person from the time of Moshe -
The argument has been given over the
centuries that they had to call our Saviour, who became known as the “
We may think, well they may not have known better, O yes they did, and the church has known the real and true name of our Saviour from the beginning to this day! But your ministers will not tell you the truth why His name was changed to something totally foreign! And sadly the lowly ministers and pastors are not educated enough and simply know no better, and yet when they hear the truth they will just reject it for it is not their churches’ doctrine, as they are so imprisoned to their doctrine.
All you have to do is look at Strongs Concordance and the truth unfolds, for there you will see that it very clearly states that both Joshua and our Messiah’s real names are what I am telling you have told you, it is Yahushua, although as the Strongs author’s are not Hebrew scholars, they do tend to use a “J” and that is OK, but it still proves the point that there has been a Satanic conspiracy and that sadly commenced in Samaria with that Babylonian priest and a Satanic sorcerer by the name of Simon Magnus!
Let me now turn to
Strongs!
Joshua in the Tanach – Old Covenant - Strongs Concordance:
OT:3091: Yehowshua
(yeh-ho-shoo'-ah); or
Joshua in the Brit Chadashah – New Covenant - Strongs Concordance:
“…
the son of
NT:2424 Iesous
(ee-ay-sooce'); of Hebrew origin (untrue the word is
of Greek origin) [OT:3091];
Thus, we have clearly established that the Name of our Saviour was never a Greek name, which is sadly of a pagan base, but He has a Hebrew Name as stated so clearly in Strongs and as is confirmed by countless scholars, and many other ministers, but now they feel it is too late to change for it has been taught for far too long and it has become a “tradition.” Others will claim that it is only a translation; well I am sorry the truth is you cannot translate a name and should never try to do so! Of course we must translate words for we would never understand the blessed Word if we did not translate one language into another, but a name is a name!
But tragically, somehow, the pagan

Thus there is no doubt that Simon can be classified among the major group of so-called “christians” and Simon was the first to call himself a “Christian” whilst the faithful in Messiah Yahushua, did not have an official name at this stage and they simply considered themselves as followers of the Messiah of Israel, or as Messianic believers!
As Church historian “Harnack”
stated that this “new Christian religion was
decidedly anti-Jewish.” And he also stated that … “They
advance much further in the criticism of the Old Covenant and perceived the
impossibility of saving it [that is, the Old Covenant] for the Christian

says;
"His effort to rival and surpass

Now let us take a closer look how this evil man, Simon Magnus managed to startle the Roman world with his plan to bring in one universal religion under the guise of and new religion called “Christianity” a named that he coined!
“And in all that I have said to you, beware and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.” Shemos - Exodus 23:13.
It is well known that
Debated Word: Christ
– Christos , the basis for Christian :
Today, the sad fact is that so many use the combined terminology of “Jesus Christ” thinking that they are referring to he who is the most wonderful man that has ever lived, being He who, as Yochanan - John said;
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. He was with
Elohim in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing
was made that has been made.” Yochanan -
Thus we are speaking of He who is not just the Word, but also was, is
and always will be Elohim! This is our Saviour who came to earth as a man and
taught the Word then He gave His life as the Passover Lamb in order that all
who believe and repent and follow His ways and commandments will have life
eternal in the “
“Blessed
are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” Mattityahu -
But what of that word “
There is an ancient Christian inscription in existence that goes back to October 1, 318 A.D. and it states: “The Lord and Saviour Jesus the Good.” Now interestingly it is the word “Good” that is in question here and very soon you will understand why.
When it came to presenting details, such as names and titles of a
new
According to the Interpreter’s “Dictionary of the
Bible,” the word “
Chrestos was a highly worshipped Egyptian, Greek
and
According to the “Real-encyclopaedia,” the inscription
“Chrestos is to be seen on a
Le us look at a few passages from the blessed Word of YaHVaH Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name!
“And
in all that I have said to you, beware and make no mention of the name of other
gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.” Shemos - Exodus 23:13.
“You
shall not take the Name of YHVH your Elohim in vain, for YHVH will not hold him
guiltless who takes His Name in vain.” Shemos – Exodus 20:7
“Little
children,” urges Yochanan -
“Whoever
blasphemes the Name of YHVH shall surely be put to death.” Vayikra -
Leviticus 24:16.
Thus “christians” and those in
the world, all I can say is … BEWARE!
To read all the material that the writers of the second to the
fourth centuries wrote about this satanic man,
He has been called by many as; “The father of HERESY” and apart from the Scriptures, the amount of literature devoted to him as well as his activities, shows he really lived up to this title, for he was indeed the ultimate heretic who was the founder of today’s modern “christianity” that worships “Iesous – Jesus”!
In order to ensure that you have a full and true picture of this person, whom you have already read about in the book of Acts, I will provide a good number or reliable authorities who were either eyewitnesses of many of the things mentioned, and they were writing to others who were likewise eyewitnesses, or they were well known and highly respected historians. Much of the testimony to be mentioned is conclusive and it simply cannot be set aside!
With this evidence of Simon’s activities after his rejection by Shime’on ben Yochanan - Kepha, we will clearly be able to see why Lukas - Luke thought it most important to tell the real condition of this man, proving that he was in actuality NEVER an Apostle of Yahushua our blessed Redeemer.
In this regard, notice the comment of Hasting’s Dictionary of
the
“But it need NOT be supposed that when
Please note: The above and following are
leading Scriptural commentators as well as using “Bible Dictionaries and
Encyclopaedias all of which will use terms that are typically “
What Simon Magnus did was to bring a mixture of Babylonian Egyptian, Greek and Roman myths and these were all combines with the Hebraic religious beliefs into a form of what he called by a name that he newly created, which he took from two ancient names, being “Chreston” and “Chrestos,” which he turned into “Christianity” in order to bring about what he called the “UNIVERSAL (Catholic) Roman church!”
The amalgam of paganism and the faith of Messiah which was characteristic of Gnosticism, which was especially obvious in the Simonian system, is readily explicable in the teaching of Simon Magnus, who as we have read in Acts, it was brought into intimate contact with the teaching about our beloved Saviour, but without Simon ever having become a true and genuine follower.
In Schaff’s History of the church there is another reference
to
“The author, or first representative of this baptized HEATHENISM, according to the uniform testimony of Christian antiquity, is Simon Magnus, who unquestionably adulterated Christianity with pagan ideas and practices, and gave himself out, in a pantheistic style for an emanation of God” (Apostolic Christianity, ol. 2, p. 566).
“… a false Messiah, who practiced magical arts and subsequently attempted by the aid and with the sanction of Christianity, to set up a rival UNIVERSAL [Catholic] RELIGION” (Vol. 11, p. 514).
Again, what does history tell us about
“Two independent traditions profess to
preserve the teaching of
It is no wonder that
1… The creation of the word “
2… The change of the most Sanctified Hebrew Name of
“Yahushua” into a Greek pagan name “Iesous” –
“Sous” and “Sus” is directly related to the name of the
Greek god “
3… If you worship on the day of Mithra, being the sun goddess, today known as SunDAY! All “Christians were ordered by force, or be killed to worship on this day, for only on this day was it right to come together! At that time there was no such a thing as “communion” or what in many churches is now called “breaking of bread” as yet, for that did not come into being into the church until the seventh century! For interest, the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean term “Breaking Bread” simply means “to dine,” or “to eat together.” This term is used to this very day!
“Evidently the Simonian heresy always
had a “Christian” tinge. This made it more dangerous to Christians
than a Gnostic which did not affect any Christian influence.
The reason
The Death of Simon Magnus
Amazingly the records in regard to Simon’s death is amazingly
varied and stories attempt to incorporate a certain amount of fiction from
Greek and Egyptian myths to enhance interest to those who would read about his
death about this so-called great man of faith, who was the first Bishop of
Rome. It was said that he was crucified upside down, but then again they said
that also about the so-called “
However, the truth about his death in reality is far simpler than
all the stories on record, for if we go back to the original records, we
discover that they state that he simply died at a good age and that he was
buried in Rome after a long period of mourning by his followers and that there
was a huge deification in the church. Although, it is not sure where Simon,
alias Simon - Pater or Simon- Jupiter was buried, but it is said that the place
of burial for all prophets and holy men of the Romans was in the sacred
cemetery on Vatican Hill and that much was for certain, thus his remains would
be directly under St Peters Basilica, the perfect pagan and Babylonian Temple!
And therefore Simon (Peter) Magnus to this day has a most honoured
place inside the Vatican, for there is a plaque located high up on the Eastern
wall, under a section that is entitled; “Episodes in the Life of St
Peter” and there is a marble carved plaque that depicts men taking
down “Simon Magnus” who had been hung upside down from a T
shaped cross and he is seen still upside down. Which was a lie of course, but
how very Catholic is that, for they would not know what a simple truth is! See
the image below.

It would be as sensible to say that
What clear and revealing statements they are! Eusebius is not
talking about what he considers distinct heretics outside the Catholic Church.
He is talking about leadership of that church which was continually adding more
and more heresies on a large scale. He attributes these evils to the
“Christians” who followed
In Conclusion:
Obviously there is so much more than I can write here for frankly I still have many pages of detail that I am able to give you. Possibly at a latter date, but, for now I believe that I have provided enough to satisfy the truth of the matter of two very important facts!
Fact One: Is that the
Apostle to the circumcised (the Jews/Hebrews)
There were two men who heard Yochanan the Immerser (Baptist) preach
in the
“The first thing
Fact Two: We have
learned a great deal about the name, or word “Pator” - “
“Yahushua looked at him and said,
‘You are
As we come to an end of this important study, which will come as a shock to many I am sure, I will close with the word that our beloved Saviour gave us. They are words of warning, for ever since the beginning of the creation, Satan has been active, first in deceiving the woman and the man in the garden, then the first murder, followed by great evil, except for a few of the faithful, and the great flood came.
By now, I pray we know from the Scriptures regarding of the comings and goings of the Children of Israel, as they were faithful one day, and many would be unfaithful the next. If you read my studies these issues are well covered! But sadly nothing has changed for the entire “christian world” that worships “Jesus - Iesous” that hails out of the pagan “Roman (Universal) Catholic Church” founded by an evil pagan Samaritan, a Babylonian priest that was immersed (baptised), but as he could not buy his apostleship for he was a charlatan and Shime’on - Kepha denounced him and as he left and he departed for Rome, where seemed to be welcome, due to his enchantments and his many signs and wonders, all performed by the power of Satan his closest ally!
Later the Roman Catholic Church named him “
Beloved, please beware for all this continues to this day as the lie is being protected even by the protestant and evangelical churches and then there are the new modern groups that have started with new theologies that are full of lies and are based on the “I, Me and Myself,” and based on wealth, riches, thus gaining more and more money, and obviously most of this ends up in the pockets of those countless mass produced Media savvy TV Evangelists who claim to be prophets and healers, etc, but many of whom are the worlds biggest con artists! Just take a look at their Versace suits, and their very expensive cars and grand homes, as well as their private Jets, and staying in grand suites in 5 star hotels, etc! What did our beloved Saviour tell us about our own needs and riches?
“And do not set your heart on what you
will eat or drink; do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all
such things and your Father knows that you need them. But seek His Kingdom, and
these things will be given to you as well. Do not be afraid, little flock, for
your Father has been pleased to give you the Kingdom. Sell your possessions and
give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a
treasure in heaven that will not be exhausted, where no thief comes near and no
moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Be
dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like men waiting for
their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when He comes and knocks
they can immediately open the door for Him. It will be good for those servants
whose Master finds them watching when He comes. I tell you the truth, he will
dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and
wait on them. It will be good for those servants whose Master finds them ready,
even if He comes in the second or third watch of the night. But understand
this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he
would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because
the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect Him."
But Yahushua also takes a very strong stand of “false prophets” as being “Ferocious wolves” and “evildoers”;
“Watch out
for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are
ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes
from thorn-bushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good
fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a
bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is
cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize
them. Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the
“Yahushua said to them; ‘I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never
hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst. But I said to you that
you have seen Me and yet do not believe (like the unbelieving church today).
All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no
means cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not
to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of the
Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but
should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him (YHVH Elohim) who sent Me that everyone who
sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise
him up at the last day." Yochanan -
When we are obedient unto Him, we will have the assurance, that through His grace and love our spiritual lives will be in order! And YaHVaH Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name, will speak to your heart, and I believe that He is speaking to you even now as you have been reading this study about a man with an evil past that set up a pagan based church, but now you in spirit and in truth can take the opportunity to set all things right with the Father and His beloved Son who came to save you, and I pray that you will make things right with Him now!
“Behold, your King is coming to you. He is just and having Salvation … He shall speak peace to the nations. His dominion shall be from sea to sea and from the river to the ends of the earth” Zecharyah – Zechariah 9:9 & 10.
Yahushua said …
“I tell you the truth, if you have faith
as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here
to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Join THE “Little Flock” in
Yahushua!
Beloved, you also can join or assist in commencing a home group of the faithful in Yahushua THE Messiah in your area. We will be more than happy to advise you where to find a group if one is available in your area, and if not, assist you possibly in commencing one if a male can head it. Remember we are most respectful of all ladies and treasure them, and they have some of the most wonderful duties in the ministry, but according to the Word of the Father in Heaven, a man should be the teacher and lead a “flock!”
Why not join “Meh’at-Tzon”

What a wonderful opportunity you have today, to come out of her that is the harlot that was created by one called Simon the sorcerer, who masqueraded as the one we know as the apostle Kepha - Peter, that in due course became the pagan based church of the roman empire and it covered the globe, or one of her daughter’s churches.
But step out in Faith and return to Him who is your Saviour and Messiah Yahushua - pronounced – Ya-ho-Shoe-a and live according to the Ten Commandments, and I do Mean ALL the Commandments including the 4th.one “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.” And it is always good to live according to the principle … “Give us this day our daily bread” as this ministry does!
Do not fear “Mi’kros
Poim’neon” - Little Flock,
for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. Sell what you
have and give alms; provide yourselves moneybags which do not grow old, a
treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches, nor a
moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be
also.”
