Judaism or "Gentilism"?

Christians, Messianics or not, will object this study arguing that it is overtly Judaizing. But reality is that there is an unavoidable choice for everyone of them of being a Judaizer or a Gentilizer. They should observe that,
  1. Yeshua was a Jew came to his own — the Jewish people — even though He knew that they would temporarily reject Him.
  2. According to Matthew 15:24 Yeshua came "ONLY to the lost sheep of the House of Israel"
  3. Yeshua gave a very clear order in this respect to his disciples in,
Matthew (Mattithyahu) 10:5-6
5 Yeshua sent out these twelve after having instructed them: "Do not go into [ the way of ] the Gentiles, and do not enter [ any ] city of the Samaritans. 6 But rather, go to the lost sheep of the House of Israel."
After his resurrection, he sent them out into the whole world to make disciples among the Gentiles — in accordance to Torah, i.e. by converting them first through Circumcision — of his flavor of Judaism.
Matthew (Mattithyahu) 28:19-20
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the Gentiles [ baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit ] 20 teaching them to observe ALL that I commanded you. And, look, I am with you always — all the way to the End of the Age.
This verse above contains one of the worst cases of interpolation (literary addition) performed by a later Gentile copyist, who was trying to forcibly validate the hypothesis of the Trinity. This, tragically, was not uncommon in the early times of Christianity.
Yeshua sent his disciples to preach the Good News to all creatures in the world. But He made sure to also command them to "teach them to keep all things" as he had taught them to do, i.e. all the things in His Written Torah, while ignoring the false commands of men [ the "ma'asim" and the "takanot" ].

Now, what did Yeshua mean by "making disciples among the Gentiles"? What could his disciple have understood of it? These days many ignore, among Jews and Christians, that in the Second Temple era there was a great evangelistic effort done all around the known world by the Jewish people among the Gentiles, and that even a good percentage of the Roman empire had converted to Judaism. Such widespread activity was known as "making disciples."
Acts 15:1
1 Some men came down from Judea and began teaching the brethren, "Unless you are circumcised according to the Tradition of Moses, you cannot be saved."
As you can see, such was the activity that were doing some disciples of Yeshua with whom Paul and Barnabas had a great argument in Antioch.
Acts 15:2
2 And when Paul and Barnabas had great dissension and debate with them, it was determined that Paul and Barnabas and some others of them should go up to Jerusalem to the Disciples of Yeshua and the elders concerning this issue.
On that occasion, the congregation of Jerusalem made the grievous mistake of trying and appeasing Paul by braking Torah! The results of such a grave decision is still felt to this day. But how did they break Torah? Because they ignored that Torah clearly states that any Gentile who wants to eat of the Passover Lamb, and enjoy the blessings of Israel, should be circumcised FIRST.
Exodus 12:48-49
48 If a sojourner who dwells with you would like to offer the Passover to YHWH, all his males must be circumcised. Then he shall be admitted to offer it. He shall then be as a citizen of the country [ a convert Jew ]. But no uncircumcised person may eat of it. 49 There shall be one Law for the citizen [ Jew ] and for the stranger [ Gentile ] who dwells among you.
Do you really believe that Yeshua is the Lamb of YHWH? Then should also accept what Torah says: that as a Gentile, you have no right to "eat" of Yeshua — no matter what Paul, the Pope, you pastor, theologians, your denomination, your family, and even your own mind, may say. Whether you trust what YHWH has clearly stated, or you reject it. It is you personal option of which you shall be responsible on Judgement Day.

So, the so-called 'First Council of the Church' in Jerusalem trashed (with good intentions, I believe) the above Regulation in Torah concerning Gentiles. And, again, the results could not have being more catastrophic. That is the danger of trying to appease the Enemy, and of rationalizing what should only be obeyed. This last point is precisely taking the first irresponsible step toward Babylon — which is exactly where the Christian Church ended up being.

Yes, Yeshua was a great Judaizer, so is YHWH ... and so should you be.

Gentilizers and Interpolations

We saw above that in Matthew 28:19 there was an interpolation introduced by some dishonest copyist to try and "prove" the "veracity" of the Trinity polytheistic heresy. Naturally, the oldest manuscripts do not show this trinitarian formula in the mouth of Yeshua at all.

Another well known interpolation is the one known as the 'Great Commission' of Mark,
Mark 16:15-20
15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to all creature. 16 He who has believed, and has been baptized, shall be saved. But he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.
17 These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
19 So then, when master Yeshua had spoken to them, he was received up into Heaven and sat down at the Right Hand of Elohim. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, while YHWH worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed. And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Yeshua himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.
This portion was also interpolated (added) at the end of that book many years later by other unscrupulous Gentile copyists followers of Paul. In this immoral and blaspheming way they also wanted to validate some of their doctrinal viewpoints through the most deceptive means of all: outright lying by putting words in the mouth of Yeshua.

Now, there are many examples in history of many people who did this kind of demonic work. It was a common practice among Gentile Christians since very first century! This is the reason why there are so many different copies of the New Testament in existence. It is also the reason of the most severe Threat uttered in the Book of Revelation against the introduction of any alteration in it by the addition or subtraction of words to it.
Revelation (Gilyanah) 22:18-19
18 I testify to everyone who hears the Words of the Prophecy of this Book: if anyone adds to them, Elohim will add to him the Plagues which are written in this Book. 19 And if anyone takes away from the Words of the Book of this Prophecy, Elohim will take away his part from the Tree of Life and from the Holy City, which are written in this Book.

Yes, Forever Judaizer

An aware Gentile who loves the Elohim of Israel receives Circumcision and converts to Judaism because:
  1. Judaism is the only religion that was ever revealed by YHWH to humanity, at Sinai or wherever else.
  2. Judaism was the religion practiced by Yeshua.
  3. Yeshua is the Jewish Messiah.
  4. Yeshua is the King of the Jews, not of the Gentiles.
  5. The Messianic Kingdom, yet to be established upon the entire world, is a Jewish Kingdom ruled by a Jewish King.

Because of these irrefutable reasons, I choose to be a Judaizer — a Judaizing Jew — just like Yeshua was one too.

Leviticus (Wayikra)
18:4-5

4 My Judgments you shall do; and you shall observe My Ordinances to walk in them. I am YHWH your Elohim.
5 So, you shall observe My Ordinances and My Judgments, because the man who accomplishes them will live by them. I am YHWH!


Deuteronomy (Devarim)
4:1-2

1 Now, Israel, listen to the Ordinances and the Judgments, which I am teaching you to perform, in order that you may live and come and possess the Land which YHWH, the Elohim of your ancestors, is giving you.
2 You shall not add upon the Word  which  I am comman-
ding you; and you shall not take  away  from  it,  regar-
ding the Commandments of YHWH your Elohim, with which I am charging you.


Deuteronomy (Devarim)
4:5-6

5 Look, I have taught you the Ordinances and the Judgments just as YHWH my Elohim did to me, so that you do them in the midst of the Land which you come to possess over there. 6 So, you shall observe them and do them, because it is Wisdom and Understanding in the sight of the peoples who will hear all the Ordinances, these Ones, and will say: "Surely these great people are a wise and understanding people."


Deuteronomy (Devarim)
5:1

1 Then Moses summoned all Israel and said to them: "Hear, Israel, the Statutes and the Ordinances which I am speaking today in your ears, that you may learn them and observe them carefully.


Deuteronomy (Devarim)
6:1

1 Now this is the Commandment, the Ordinances and the Judgments which YHWH your Elohim has commanded me to teach you, so that you may do them in the Land where you are going over to possess it, 2 so that you and your son and your grandson might fear YHWH your Elohim, to keep all His Statutes and His Commandments which I command you, all the days of your life, and so that your days may be prolonged.


Deuteronomy (Devarim)

4 You have ordained Your Precepts that we should keep them diligently.


Psalm (Tehillim)

Do you believe in Yeshua?
Look what he said:

Matthew (Mattithyahu)
5:17-19

17 Do not think that I came to abolish Torah or the Prophets. I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill. 18 Because I tell you for sure that until Heaven and earth have passed away, not one Yud [ the smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet ], nor the least stroke [ of a letter ] — shall pass away from the Torah, until everything is [ passed away ].19 Then, whoever annuls one of the least of these Commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called "least" in the Kingdom of Heaven. But whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called "great" in the Kingdom of Heaven.
