Shalom!
“The Ebonite Movement – Rampant and Rising” is #45.0 under the Mikvah of the Covenant.
This article includes a brief, concise, article of wisdom by Joseph Riverwind, Messianic Indian Chief, who is well grounded in Hebrew and Greek, and the wisdom of the Word. He is a close friend of Messianic L.A. Marzulli. This article was included in L.A. Marzulli’s May online Magazine.
After podcasting Acts 18-19 yesterday, explaining why the Pharisees were so bent on stalking Sha’ul/Paul and his companions to stamp out their teaching of Messiah. They slandered Sha’ul, and did all they could to stop him.
Then, about 2 hours later, I downloaded L.A. Marzulli’s May online magazine and saw the article by Joseph Riverwind. I knew I had to address it separately from my podcasts because so few “believers,” especially Messianics, have any interest in listening to anything about the book of Acts. The stats are amazingly low. Yet, without the book of Acts, we do not have a historic manual to follow for its return in 2020 and beyond.
I am frustrated that I have to take out time to address this again in writing, or in anyway, to the Messianic madness, insanity, that is increasing. To a high degree, the great falling away that Sha’ul said would happen at this time, has become the name of their “game.”
I’ve never heard the word “Ebonite,” but I do go into the word “movement.” Perhaps you’ll see some humor in that. I’m not an “uppity,” but realistically earthy.
The Spirit of Yahuwah, Yahuwah Himself, is disgusted and angry to the max with those who call themselves His people, and some may be, but who have come under the power of the demonic viper-seed of the Pharisees, and thus are out to do what Messiah said they do: “Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you go about the land and the sea to win one convert, and when he is won, you make him twice the son of hell that you are.” Yea, read Matthew 23, and John 8:42-47.
It is amazing that people can receive the mighty gift of salvation, planned for them from the foundation of the world, and then quickly become apathetic towards it because they do not share it. Yet, to hear the words of the Nachash to them through modern-day vipers, they instantly receive it and go far and wide to proclaim it – at least on the internet. I have wrestled with the denouncing of Messiah’s Deity and the embracing of rabbinic Judaism by so-called “believers,” for over 20 years. There is no power and authority in their lives from Yahuwah. They are dead-religious spirits, yet devoutly honored in “Messianic” communities.
What is the true new birth? Why is it important to submit to Yahuwah’s Spirit and obey Him? Why is it mandatory to walk under the authority and power of the Spirit, so that the spirit-man (soul and spirit) are united in order for a person to enter the Kingdom of heaven?
In my podcast on Acts 18-19 yesterday, I spoke about the hate of the Pharisees for the Apostle Sha’ul/”Paul” and those with him. Their hate was from envy and jealousy, competition – same as the spirits on the ministry of all religions. Today, those of their lineage, play their game of “nice and holy.” But underneath the viper waits to surface. By their own admission within their ranks and writings, they want the death of all who believe that Messiah is Deity. Why is that?
If He were not Deity, they would not care what anyone believes. But, because it is the Truth, they are terrified of it. For His death, resurrection, and return will seal their fate for eternity. Why join them? You have everything to lose.
Once again, I plead, but this time I prophesy, and I speak “thus saith Yahuwah.” Please read prayerfully … and go to Yahuwah and seek out the Truth. I have no fear of Truth – and neither should you.
In His love, peace, joy, Yedidah
