12/16/05 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
(Regarding the modern holidays of men[1])

Thus says The Lord God: This world has altogether become a house of harlots, a whole generation who ceases not from committing fornication with the pagan and the heathen, reveling always in those things I hate! - A most perverse generation who desecrates the name of The Messiah, a foolish people who do always take the name of The Lord in vain![2]

Behold, all remain shackled to this world, captivated by sin, caught up in the ways of the world and men! Even those within the churches of men will not heed My voice, nor will they receive My correction; choosing rather to mingle honor with dishonor, praise with blasphemy, and purity with sin! Therefore stop breaking My Commandments in The Messiah’s name, O churches of men! You shall not associate His name with sin, nor shall you honor Him with pagan rituals and idolatrous traditions, lest I reject you as I rejected the pagans before you!
Repent, therefore, and give Me glory; worship Me in spirit and in truth,[3] and call upon The Name! For He alone shall deliver you in the Day of Wrath,[4] if you so choose to embrace Him as He truly is; He being the very same who shall also destroy the wicked and bring terrible judgment upon the rebellious, upon great and small, rich and poor, bond and free, upon all who forsake My Law and push out the hand against the Word of My Commandment! For by Him were you made a vessel unto honor, yet you have all become vessels of dishonor, heaping to yourselves vanities and sin!
Therefore, because you are not ashamed of all these abominations which you have committed, but walk proudly, you shall be the first to fall among those who fall, at the time I punish this world for its iniquity and cast down the multitudes for their wickedness![5] For I am The Lord, and I do not change![6]

Therefore hear My words, all you proud blasphemers, all you modern pharisees who pervert the Truth, for thus says The Lord: How long shall you desecrate the name of The Messiah, and set yourselves up as an authority?! Behold, as vines of wickedness you bring forth only bitter fruit, propagating corrupt doctrine and perverse tradition among the people like a plague, doctrines and traditions I hate! YAHUSHUA, whom you call Jesus and Christ, is The True Vine! And only those who bear fruit in accordance with His likeness are His branches. And I shall surely prune every branch which grows from Him, that it may bear even more fruit.[7] Yet you say, “Here I am, I also grow from The Vine!” You are all liars, a malignancy growing where you should not, dry branches meet to be broken off and cast into the fire![8]


Peoples of the earth, the Wrath of The Lamb is coming![9]
Did you think I would stay silent during the time appointed?!
Did you think I would not set the time and declare the season?!...

For I am a jealous God and great in power,
AND I DO NOT CHANGE![10]


Thus I shall speak plainly, for you are a most rebellious and hard-hearted people, a most foolish and deceived generation: These modern holidays called Christmas, Easter, Halloween and the like, are an abomination in the eyes of The Most High God. Therefore in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath, I shall destroy all your pagan traditions, and tear apart every perverse holiday of man! Behold, I shall wipe them from the face of the earth on that day, and no more shall you break My Commandments and revel in sin in The Messiah’s name!
Behold, My countenance is turned against you, O churches of men! For you have blasphemed My name without ceasing, polluting the name of The Messiah days without end! You have placed the commandments of men above The Commandments of God, saying within yourselves, “We are the only authority among men.” How long shall you walk in the ways of the harlot and commit adultery with the pagan?! How long shall you turn your ear away from hearing The Holy Law?! Thus your worship is not accepted, and your prayers are an abomination![11]
Churches of men, stop your vain babbling, for you do always twist the Scriptures of Truth! BE SILENT BEFORE YOUR GOD! For your traditions are heresy, and your holidays are proof! Purge all this blasphemy from your lips, therefore, step back from your corrupt teachings, and take an account! HUMBLE YOURSELVES! For I am indeed calling you out!
Know you not, that you have all become as the pagan and the heathen, by which all your holidays have their origins?! ABOMINATION! This world has seduced you, and the harlot has led you into temptation! She shall be stripped naked and left desolate in the day of her calamity, broken because of her iniquities, put to death because of her denial of the Truth, crushed beneath the feet of The Holy One of Israel!

Therefore hear the Word of The Lord and give heed, for thus declares The Lord: One Commandment broken are all Commandments broken. One sin committed in The Messiah’s name are all sins accounted to you. One sin repented in His name, all are forgiven you. For I know your thoughts, My children, even your innermost intentions, and I know whether or not you are fully converted in your hearts.[12] And though you may lie to yourselves, and bear false witness in the sight of many witnesses, nothing is hidden from the eyes of God - Every lie exposed, every heart laid bare, in the Day I rise up and judge the earth.


Come to Me, therefore, in sincerity and in truth;
Humble yourselves in The Messiah’s name...

For He is The True Light, utterly void of darkness,
The Only Way to follow, The Truth Absolute;
By Him alone shall you walk into everlasting life...

For only those who walk in Him shall find Me,[13]
And only those in union with Him shall know Me[14]...

Says The Lord.

10/7/04 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For Timothy and His Wife, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

This question was asked of The Lord: Lord, what is your will for us regarding Christmas this year?

[The Lord answered] Timothy and Beloved, I tell you this: Let your hearts guide you, for on them have I written many things, and will continue to do so. Yea, even greater things will I reveal to you in the days to come. Then shall you be changed, from that which is perishable to that which is imperishable, your innermost desire realized.

As for this holiday called Christmas, you must forsake it. For on this day, The Son of Man did not come into the world by way of water and blood; neither shall My people worship Me in this way. Yet of Messiah’s birth, you may indeed remember it with your family, for it was the beginning of your salvation. For where there was once only darkness, behold, a great light has appeared![15] Therefore, blessed are those who worship with gratitude, giving thanks for the birth of My Son. Even more blessed are those who worship and give thanks for His death and resurrection.

Yet woe to those who associate the name of The Son of God with pagan practices and idolatrous traditions! YOU HAVE SURELY TAKEN THE NAME OF THE LORD IN VAIN! Woe to all who celebrate this holiday called Christmas, for you do dishonor Me by all you say and do! For this season of so-called giving is detestable in My sight! ABOMINATION! IDOLATRY!
Woe to all who ignore My warnings and break My Commandments! YOU ARE ALL SLAVES! You have made mammon your master, materialism has bound you in chains, for you want no part with Me as I truly am! Behold, from you My spirit is far removed, for you have surely made yourselves enemies of God![16] I tell you the truth, the day is coming and is already here, when the quality of each man’s work shall be tried and the faith of every self-proclaimed believer tested! For the Day of The Lord shall surely declare it![17]
Know you not, that to imitate The Messiah is righteousness?! My people, you were to walk in His ways! Yet you have made of Him a mockery! How long shall you cleave to the harlot?! How long shall you walk in her ways?! My people, come out of her, and touch no more the unclean thing![18]


For I tell you the truth, to replace Christ,
Or to associate His name with sin, is to
Partake in that which is called antichrist!...

And to honor The Messiah with pagan customs and
Filthy traditions is to take the name of The Lord in vain!...

DESECRATION! BLASPHEMY!


I know many in this world celebrate this holiday in ignorance of its origins, yet it is an abomination to Me, pagan practices and idolatrous traditions which I loathe in My zeal! Therefore, woe to those who willfully walk in ignorance! And woe, even three times woe, to those who knowingly place their stamp of approval on these things, doing so in The Messiah’s name; yours shall be a most bitter place, your discipline severe! Woe to all who knowingly lead others into rebellion against The Lord, for the mouth of Sheol is open and ready to receive you!
Beloved ones, worship Me as I am and not as you would have Me be! Obey MY voice! Depart from every form of evil and tear down every whitewashed wall of abomination! CHURCHES OF MEN, STOP TWISTING THE SCRIPTURES TO UPHOLD YOUR OWN WAY! Be separate from this world, and no more endorse those things I hate! Again, I say, be separate and come out from among them,[19] and repent! Return to Me, in spirit and in truth, and in the day I stretch out My hand against the inhabitants of the earth, you shall surely be gone from this place, says The Lord.

So then, My beloved servants, share your gifts: Lift up the poor and help the needy, give drink to the thirsty and feed the hungry, share My love and wash each other’s feet. Yet no longer be a friend of this world,[20] and no more walk in the ways of the churches of men, for they have not known Me.


Be set apart!
Rejoice and give thanks!...

Honor The Messiah in spirit and in truth,[21]
And walk closely in His example;
Testify of Him, from His birth to His passion;
Glorify His name in all the earth!...

For HE is the true gift...

Says The Lord.


This question was asked of The Lord: Lord, what do you say about the modern Christmas?

[The Lord answered] Though you ask of Me once again, Timothy, concerning this holiday which I hate, this season which the people in your land, even in many lands, mistakenly refer to as Christmas, I will not press down upon you the many cups filled to overflowing with My indignation. For you haven’t the paper or strength of hand to write it. I AM THE LORD.


From the Letter: Christmas




12/15/10 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
(Regarding the holidays of men[22])

Thus says The Lord: All these things which these modern people do in My name, though they be called Christian or otherwise, I DO HATE! I loathe the sight of them! - Dead works! Abominations! Deplorable traditions, in where they have despised both Me and My Word!
Behold, even the churches of men pollute My name and My glory. Day after day, they twist the Scriptures and tread upon My Holy Law, in an effort to uphold their own way. Behold, from house to house they pollute the name of The Messiah, desecrating The Glory of My majesty, as they attempt to place the name of The Holy One upon their perverse traditions! Reason has altogether departed from them, the truth is cast down, and righteousness has perished![23] For not one is willing to embrace Me as I truly am!

Therefore, thus says The Lord to the churches of men: Your worship is in vain! Your offerings are not accepted! Behold, even your prayers are an abomination! For you do always turn your ear away from hearing the Holy Law, and have not ceased from practicing those things I hate![24] Modern Pharisees! Arrogant children!
Behold, you have made for yourselves a graven image, an intricately woven tapestry of man-made doctrine and idolatrous tradition, interlacing sin with sin, all in the name of your “Jesus”, another messiah which you have created in your own image![25] Desecration! Blasphemy! YOU KNOW NEITHER ME, NOR MY WORD!


Thus I call all those who desire to serve Me
In truth and righteousness, to tear down
Every whitewashed wall of abomination![26]...

For this is not a light matter with Me,
But carries great weight, filling the cup of
My indignation throughout your generations!...

And behold, I shall surely pour out!...

Until My wrath is satisfied and My anger has abated,
Until the whole breadth of the whole earth
Is cleansed in the heat of My fury!...


Says The Lord.

12/9/10 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For Those in Men’s Fellowship, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
(Regarding the conflict which arises between those who keep the holidays of men
And those who obey the Word of The Lord)

Thus says The Lord: Purification of faith starts with the temple in which I dwell,[27] and ends with the house in which My servants dwell. For the Day approaches quickly wherein My witnesses[28] shall wield a staff and a sword; a staff to break, and a sword to cut and strike through. And wheresoever I send them, in where an idol is found, I shall cause a fire to well up within their hearts and they shall strike with ferocity, breaking every idol in pieces, cutting down every tree of abomination which stands against Me, piercing the heart of every man who upholds that which pollutes My name and My glory, whether he blasphemes in word or by deed. Behold, Every form of idolatry shall be utterly destroyed in that day! Says The Lord.

My sons, you fear a war which is waged already, a battle that has already come. And though I have said that I require peace in the houses of My servants, there can be no peace while abominations stand. Therefore, if peace is taken from a house in the name of righteousness, to rectify that which has polluted My name and My glory, this is acceptable with Me. For you have shown yourselves worthy of Me[29]... Or have you forgotten the sword I bring?[30]


Yet My words are only for those who believe,[31]
For those willing to set all these crooked paths straight...

Those who love Me more than these...


Says The Lord.

2/4/10 From YahuShua HaMashiach, Our Lord and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For The Lord’s Little Flock, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

This question was asked of The Lord: Lord, by putting You first, and refusing to take part in the modern holidays of men, are we dishonoring our parents and family who say we should take part?

Thus says The Lord YahuShua: Beloved, a sincere desire to be free from the iniquity of this world is good and well-pleasing to The Lord. For one who truly loves Me seeks to please Me. And those in whom I dwell will run from these holidays of men, which I hate, despising them. Yet one who remains in disagreement with My Word in The Volumes can in no wise be gathered, for they have denied Me. And any who reject My Word, in favor of the doctrines and traditions of men, embrace that which runs contrary to Me.
For I tell you the truth, anyone who refuses, disagrees with, or speaks against My Letters or My prophets has rejected Me in favor of their own way. Pride has ensnared them, and arrogance has become their close friend. Behold, they have embraced the world and its evil ways, and seek not the approval of their Father in Heaven, but of men. And all who seek the approval of men must walk through the valley with them; and all who remain friends of the world have made themselves enemies of God, as it is written.[32] Therefore all lovers of the world shall surely be left in it; they shall not escape! For assuredly, I say to you, this world shall be shaken and the glory of men shall be broken down! And in like manner shall all those left in the world be humbled, severely abased - Many broken and uplifted, and many more broken and condemned, says The Lord.


Therefore concerning these holidays
Of men, which I hate...

Let all those who have received
The love of the Truth depart from them;
Let the division be made clear[33]...

And let those who say they know Me,
Yet make no effort to pick up their
Cross and follow Me,[34] bear the weight
Of their burden in the Day of The Lord.


Therefore, concerning the question of breaking one Commandment in favor of another, the answer is this: I AM FIRST, of which The Commandments also testify. For those who truly love Me seek to obey My voice, and those who obey My voice have also fulfilled The Moral Law. For I am, and have always been the goal at which The Torah aims.[35] And all those in whose heart I am foremost serve Me without constraint, seeking always to place Me first, above all else. For these walk in My ways, doing those same things I did. They do not add to the Word which I have commanded them, nor do they take away from it. Behold, they keep The Commandments of God, as He commanded them and as they are written, and not as the churches of men would have them be.[36]
Thus those who say no to sin, and stay separate from that which is an abomination in the eyes of God,[37] have broken no Commandment. So then to honor any parent who transgresses The Law, by taking part in these perverse holidays of men, is to transgress The Law. Yet by honoring Me in truth, obeying the Word of The Lord, one can by no means transgress The Law. Therefore those who ask, “Would you break one Commandment to obey another?” speak without knowledge, having also failed to recognize the lie hidden within. For those who ask such questions have given heed to the subtle deceptions of the evil one, by which they are also led, seeing contradictions where none exist.


Again I say to you, who you
Choose defines what you do...

And whosoever chooses another
And not Me in truth has chosen themselves,
And has done according to their own will[38]...

Yet to disobey God is sin...

Therefore call on My name and make
Your repentance full, by departing
From those things which are not lawful,
Standing apart from those things I hate,
And you shall surely be delivered...

Says The Lord.


2/4/10 From YahuShua HaMashiach, Our Lord and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For The Lord’s Little Flock, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
Addendum to “Obey God”

Thus says The Lord: My sons and daughters, you have yet to understand My Word and My will, concerning these things which I hate. When a parent says to their child, “Obey me,” yet their request leads their child into sin, the child who has received knowledge of My ways must choose to walk in them. For by refusing to obey their parents in that which causes them to sin, they have not dishonored their parents, but have obeyed the Word of The Lord, doing that which is right and good in My eyes, revealing that which is most needful. Beloved, this is where you have erred. For you still listen to the whisperings of the evil one; listen not to his subtle and dark speeches!

[Timothy] Brothers and sisters, satan would have us believe that even while we are obeying God it is still possible to sin, and that placing God’s will over our parent’s will will cause us to break the fifth Commandment! Do not be ensnared! Obey God!

Thus says The Lord: Beloved, awake! For I tell you the truth, you have yet to come into the full knowledge of who I truly am; nor do you understand My ways, neither are you willing to walk in them. Learn to see with new eyes and restored vision, and no longer be constrained by doubt, nor let fear hold you captive. For knowledge of Me is understanding,[39] and My spirit brings forth new awareness in those who have truly received,[40] whereby satan’s power is easily broken. Be fully awake, therefore, and no longer give heed to the corrupt teachings of men or the churches.[41]
Beloved, by disobeying a parent in regards to these modern holidays of men, you have testified to them by your refusal. And by your actions you have shown them a better way, magnifying that which is first. Thus in righteousness you have blessed them by your example. Where then is the dishonor?
Again, I say to you, one who chooses Me and performs My will does not sin. Therefore, obey your parents and honor them in all things, save that which causes you to disobey the Word of God; honor NO request from one who chooses sin, asking you to be a partaker with them. For all who know and understand the origins of these holidays of men, and do not take a stand against them, have shown themselves to be in agreement with those who sin against Me. And all those who compromise or make concessions dishonor Me and have no love for God in their hearts.[42]


Be My examples, therefore...

Come out from among them and be separate;
Do not touch what is unclean and I will
Receive you, as it is written[43]...

Obey My voice and walk in My ways,
Revealing to every onlooker that I am indeed first...

The greatest of all loves.
