    About this ebook

    Do you know your faith? Could you detect biblical deception? Does the Christian Church teach you the Truth of Scripture, or does it teach error? The more we are able to compare Scripture to what we are taught in Christian Churches and what we hear from the pulpit, the more we see the doctrines and traditions of men being taught, just as the Messiah warned against in Mark 7:6-9. Compare what Scripture says and what Christianity teaches; you will see that the two are not the same. This short ebook reveals a few of the many errors and false teachings we have been given from the Christian Church. See what Genesis 6:2 really means. What actually happened to the prophet Elijah? Perhaps for the first time, without the filters of the Church, see for yourself what Yahweh truly meant for us to know and understand about what He says in His Holy Scriptures.

    Author

    Van Davis

    I am Van Davis, a worshipper and follower of the Elohim of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Until four years ago, I spent all of my life as a Christian. I worked in the Healthcare Industry, and then in Corporate America, and then as a pastor. After spending years in the Corporate world, I spent a few years as a pulpit supply pastor, filling in at various denominations as regular pastors went on vacations, or were ill. And then I spent four years as a Baptist pastor in Swea City, IA. After fighting with the congregation for four years for refusing to tickle their ears, I was eventually forced to resign. It was unfortunate they had plenty of interest in traditions, but no interest in Scripture. And then, solely by the grace of Yahweh, we (my lovely wife and family) answered the call to become His followers, being granted salvation through His Son Yeshua. I have had more back surgeries than I care to count anymore; I have been diagnosed with arachnoiditis, and peripheral neuropathy, and chronic back pain; I am a walking encyclopedia of conditions you really want to stay away from! It seems like the more I yield my life to the Spirit of Holiness, the more I get attacked by the Adversary. Currently I am working on a couple of ebook projects dealing with the true understanding some of the epistles of John and Shaul (Paul).

      Excuses. There is never a shortage of them. People throughout history have always been quick to find an excuse. Way back in the Garden of Eden, Adam set the pattern of excuses when he tried to shift the blame to Eve and to God who gave him the woman.

      **********

      My words have I put in thy mouth…

      Has He?

      Yahweh (God) makes a simple statement of fact:

      And thou shall love thy Elohim with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength. (Deuteronomy 6:5)

      If you are Israel, then you are commanded to love and trust Yahweh with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength.

      Why?

      Because, if Yahweh, the Elohim (God) of Israel, is not the center of your life, then He will not lead you and guide you; that means you do not belong to Him. Only those who endeavor to be close to Him will actually BE close to Him. His Spirit makes a profound and dramatic change in all who bear His Spirit. Cut your teeth on such words? Heard this before? Undoubtedly. But that was Christianity. Islam, or Hindu, or Judaism or any of the other false religions throughout the world have similar saying. They indeed work to own and possess every ounce of substance that defines you. But to be owned by the Elohim of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is a fellowship, as Scripture tells us. It tells us that His chosen ones are born as His people. It is not a fellowship non-Israelites can join. Even still, only those of His chosen flock who trust Him with all their heart, soul and strength are given eternal life. Scripture does not say that Yahweh evangelized the seed of the serpent to become the seed of Israel. That should be your first clue all worldly religions are false. All your thoughts, emotions, aspirations, life considerations, i.e…your possessions, your career, your family, everything that makes you should be regarded as a means of drawing closer to the Father. Are you in covenant with Yahweh, the Elohim of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? We invite you to see that we do indeed believe in Scripture, just as the Spirit illuminates it…
