How's it going, everybody?
Um, for this week, what I've got for you is a message I've called "The Synagogue of Satan." The Bible speaks of a group referred to as the synagogue of Satan, but can we determine with scripture who this group is?
The scriptures that I want to use to point out this topic are in the Book of Revelation. We know that the Book of Revelation predominantly speaks about end times things, warning these churches of the end times. This could actually be a warning for those times when this was being preached as well.
So, pay attention to this. Revelation 2:9 says, "I know thy works and tribulation and poverty, but thou art rich. And I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan."
Here in Revelation 2:9, he's saying that these people call themselves Jews, but they're actually not; they're the synagogue of Satan. He also mentions that they speak blasphemy. Verse 3:9 goes on to say, "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews and are not, but do lie."
He says this twice in the Book of Revelation. He is warning us about a group of people who call themselves Jews but are not and do lie. It says, "Behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet and to know that I have loved thee."
So, these people that he refers to as the synagogue of Satan call themselves Jews but are not Jews; they lie about this. It also says they speak blasphemy. Speaking to the Pharisees in the scriptures, Yeshua says the following: "They cannot hear his words because they don't have ears to hear, and this is because they are from their father, the devil."
In John 8:43-47, he says, "Why do ye not understand my speech? Even because you cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in truth because there is no truth in him."
We know what God's truth is. For you guys who have been watching my videos and for those who join us here on the Sabbath, you know what the truth is. The truth is walking in obedience to Yahweh's commandments.
It says, "You abode not in truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, it's because he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it," talking about Satan.
He says, "And because I tell you the truth, you believe me not." He's talking to these people, trying to tell them he's teaching the truth, but they believe him not because they're of Satan.
"Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me?" He goes on to say, "He that is of Yahweh heareth Yahweh's words; ye therefore hear them not because ye are not of Yahweh."
Think about that. He's telling us that this synagogue of Satan—because this is who he's speaking to here—is also for us today. When there are people out there preaching the gospel, the truth of the Gospel, like we try to show here through the scriptures, if you can't hear these words because they make no sense to you, you're not seeing the actual truth.
He says it's because there is no God in them; there is no truth in them; they're not of God. So, Yeshua is telling us that those who are not of Yahweh cannot hear his words. This is why some people just can't receive the truth of the word when we deliver it to them.
This is because deep down inside, they have rejected the truth and therefore do not have the spirit of Yahweh. Because of this message, the message remains encrypted. Yahweh did this for a reason. If you don't have his Spirit, having the Holy Spirit is the encryption key to the Bible.
I like to use military terms because I spent a career in the military, but they're the encryption keys to the Bible. We have to have the Holy Spirit. Those of you that have watched my videos, if you don't know about this, look at what it means to walk in the Spirit. I have a video on that too.
We have to be obedient to be walking in the Spirit. When we obey Yahweh, we're walking in the Spirit.
The point being here is these people who continue to reject the truth and can't hear the truth—it's because they don't have the Spirit. They don't have the Spirit of Yahweh; they haven't accepted full obedience to him yet.
The Bible refers to this synagogue of Satan as a group that calls themselves Jews but are not. The people living in Israel right now—I'm going to break out a ton of history, but I'm just going to summarize it real quick with a few bullet points to tie this together.
The people living in Israel right now, in Jerusalem and that area, who practice Talmudic Judaism come from the Ashkenazi tribe, who are descendants of Japheth through his son Gomer. Therefore, they are not biblical Jews, meaning they do not come from the line of Shem or a Shemite, which is now called a Semite.
That's where we get the terminology "anti-Semitic." It's when we're against the Semites or against the Shemites. So, it means against the lineage of Shem. A Semite or a Shemite is someone from the lineage of Shem.
This would take forever to go through all this history, but the descendants of Japheth moved to the region where Russia, Georgia, Turkey, and Ukraine are now. They later became agnostic, and when pressed by war on both sides from Islam and Christianity, they converted to Talmudic Judaism because it was a religion they could accept without really acknowledging that there was a God.
These people later took over the global banking system and controlled all modern wars, funding both sides of these wars, and now provide interest-free loans to themselves but not to anyone outside of their lineage. You can look this up.
These fake Shemites took over the world through controlling the money. Then, with the help of the Rothschilds and the Balfour Declaration, they established the state of Israel and moved in to occupy the territory.
For proof of what a Shemite is, for the Semitic people, I have this copied in here from Wikipedia. It may be kind of small or hard to see, but it talks about it. It says, "Semitic people or Semites is a term for an ethnic, cultural, or religious group associated with the people of the Middle East, including Arabs, Jews, Akkadians, and Phoenicians."
The terminology is now largely used outside the grouping of Semitic language in linguistics, first used in the 17th century by members of the Goean School of history. This biblical terminology for a race is derived from Shem, one of Noah's three sons in the Book of Genesis.
So, a Shemite is someone—just so you're not taking my word for it—this is what Wikipedia says.
Now, let's go to Genesis 10:2 and 10:3.
The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, and Meshech. And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz.
If you look here at this map, I know it's kind of challenging to see on the small thing, but the lineage of Shem is here in yellow, Ham in green, and Japheth in red up here.
If you look closely, you see Magog, Gomer, Madai, and Ashkenaz up there. These tribes moved up into that region.
Now that we know that the Ashkenazi Jews, who make up the largest portion of the population of Israel, are not from the biblical line of Shem and can't be actual Jews, this is because Satan has been using his people to set up this deception from the beginning.
He has replaced the Israel of Yahweh with a fake Israel nation-state. He has replaced the Jews of Yahweh with those who call themselves Jews but are not and do lie.
Now, let's go to the Bible and see what God considers a Jew. Romans 2:28-29 says, "For he is not a Jew which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh. But he is a Jew which is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart in the spirit and not of the letter."
So, Paul is telling us that just because we are a Jew in our physical body and our actual lineage comes from Shem, that's not the only thing that makes us a Jew.
He says, "Neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh." But he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart in the spirit and not of the letter.
He's telling us here that just because you have that physical birthright lineage and bloodline of being a Shemite does not mean that you're an actual Jew.
It's one who has that desire to follow. If you're a Jew and you follow Christ, now you're a Jew because you've been circumcised of the heart and obey Yahweh.
So, Paul is teaching us here that Jews are not just someone who calls themselves a Jew, but rather someone who is circumcised with a heart and willing to obey Yahweh.
This is like spiritual Israel or the Israel of Yahweh. Any Jew who comes to Messiah is a spiritual Jew, just like any Gentiles who come to Messiah in obedience to the Father become grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel.
This is because these Pharisees—who were attacking Yeshua for teaching truth—called themselves Jews but instead taught satanic traditions from the Babylonian Talmud rather than obedience to the Father like Yeshua.
This is why he said that they were of their father, Satan. These are the people who call themselves Jews but still disobey the Father and instead follow the teachings of Satan.
Their teachings don't follow the scriptures like we do; that's what the world teaches you. Instead, they follow the Babylonian Talmud, which is their commentary on what the Bible says.
It's just as heretical as the stuff that goes on today in the modern church, where we're following stuff that the church fathers preached and taught. If they're preaching something that aligns with the Bible, by all means, let's look at it and see what their insight was; maybe we can glean something from it.
But if what they're saying goes against what the Bible says, we have to throw it out. The same thing with the Talmud. A lot of the stuff there is derived from the scripture, but they twist things into a false doctrine.
In it, it even says Yeshua is boiling and burning excrement in hell for being a sinner. So, they believe our Messiah is burning in hell for being a sinner; that's what the Talmud says. That doctrine is satanic.
These Pharisees that were attacking Yeshua were teaching this same false doctrine. These Jews that denied the Messiah have set themselves against Yahweh.
So, let's look into more of the beliefs of this synagogue of Satan.
In Acts 7:43, it says, "Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them, and I will carry you away beyond Babylon."
Then, Amos 5:26 says, "But ye have borne the tabernacle of your god Moloch and your images, and the star of your god which ye have made to yourselves."
Nowhere in scripture have I seen that we are commanded to make a star or an emblem or anything to identify Yahweh's people. But there is a star called the star of Remphan spoken of in scripture, speaking to the false teachers who are leading these people away from Yahweh.
He says that they made a star for themselves, and it also says that this figure was made to worship Moloch, the cow god.
Below, I have several images that I pulled from different websites. I went specifically to satanic and witchy websites, as well as Freemason websites, to show you guys that all of this stuff is intermingled.
There's a lot of variations of this satanic doctrine, but there's one very pure form of it, and that's what we're getting to.
The images that I'm going to show you are from witch websites. Like I said, where you can buy jewelry and stuff, the star that we've been told is the Star of David is actually the star of Remphan, also called the Talisman of Saturn.
Think about that—Talisman. That's like a witchcraft thing. It's called the Talisman of Saturn. Saturn is another name for Satan.
The Talisman of Saturn, the star of Remphan, the Star of David—all over the inside of Masonic temples, the star associated with Hinduism and Kabbalah. These are the same star.
As you'll see here, we have the hexagram, the six-pointed star. You have the obverse and the reverse right here. Notice it has the cow head in the middle. This is the Talisman of Saturn. This is satanic.
This is what the Bible warned us about here in Acts 7:43 and Amos 5:26.
Also, if you notice here, this is from another witch website talking about the Talisman of Saturn. This is on their website; they talk about this here. The Talisman of Saturn is presented to protect them against danger.
Here's another image from multiple different pagan cultures throughout the year. They had the same star on here. This dates way back to Phoenician, Armenian, Ethiopian, and Mesopotamian cultures.
This is a Babylonian thing; this is not good. This is not a biblical thing. As you can see here, it's tied in with Freemasonry.
Freemasonry, the Star of David, the same color schemes and all that stuff are there as well. Here's another emblem of a Freemason thing, but notice it's got this star on the inside.
Clearly, Freemasonry—a lot of those people that are in it don't really realize what it actually is tied into, but those guys are pushers and peddlers and movers and shakers in the logistics of satanic systems.
There's their symbol with this Star of David. Here is an emblem of, I think, Vishnu, the name of this Hindu god, that is inside of this Star of David, which is the star of Remphan.
Then down here at the corner, this picture got skewed a little bit and messed it up. It's hard to tell, but this is a ring with a Star of David on it. This is from a website where you can buy witch rings for witches.
So, they use that symbol right there. For $34.30, you can get a witch ring with a Star of David on it or the star of Remphan.
I'm just pointing this out because this is everywhere. All over the Catholic Church, the Catholic pope has it on his hat. It's all over Catholic cathedrals. This is all over Christian churches. Christians are holding this flag up and celebrating it.
We've talked a little bit about this. I'm beating this in because I don't want anybody to be able to say, "Oh, but this is—you're making stuff up." I'm showing you what the websites themselves say, what these organizations themselves show us.
From a Kabbalah website, this is a cover of a book called "The Blazing Star in the Jewish Kabbalah." Look, you've got the Star of David, the star of Remphan, and the Freemason symbol at the bottom.
It's all tied together. This is all one big satanic cult. There's one very pure form of it, and we're going to get to that.
As you can see, this star is tied to every satanic cult there is. This is not a coincidence. This is because all of these satanic cults are leading people to destruction, setting everything up for the acceptance of the Antichrist and the worship of the Antichrist.
There are many counterfeits to this, but there's only one true synagogue of Satan that really runs all this stuff. This group is exceptionally sneaky and can take the form of many religions as a deception.
They are allowed to lie about who they worship because their father is the father of lies. John 8:44 says, "Ye are of your father," speaking to this group. This is the same group back then that still exists today.
"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in truth, God's truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it."
Speaking to the Pharisees, he called them liars and said they are of their father, the devil. So, we know that they can lie.
That's why you see some of these people who say, "I'm a Christian," meanwhile they practice Kabbalah. You'll have them tied into Judaism. A lot of times, it's going to be deeply attached to Judaism, typically not Christianity.
But you will see Christians backing and espousing these ideas as well because they just don't know.
So, this synagogue of Satan is the same that existed from the beginning. It's the same group of people who killed our Messiah and who still practice this most pure form of satanic witchcraft.
These are the fake Jews who rule the world and influence all religions globally. As you can see, their emblem has spread to everything they influence.
We've already shown that it's in every aspect of all of these pagan religions.
So, what do they influence? They influence entertainment, media, politics, banking, religion, education systems, the medical establishment, the military-industrial complex, and the intelligence agencies.
This synagogue of Satan influences everything we see, hear, eat, drink, breathe, and accept as truth. All of the media that we consume needs to be looked at with discernment.
I wouldn't even look at certain media outlets because when you do, you're being fed a deception. We have all been born into this satanic deception, but it should be no surprise because we're told that Satan would deceive the whole world.
So, Revelation 12:9 says, "And the dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world. He was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
Then, if we go to 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, it says, "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
This angel of light that these people follow with Talmudic Judaism and Freemasonry—all, if you really dig into it, they'll straight up tell you this angel of light is Lucifer.
Therefore, it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed into the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.
Right? Because their works are not works of truth and obedience to Yahweh. They're these works that they do, trying to change the world in their human vision of how to change it and make it better, not in a godly-inspired vision.
So, these people that are out there—these ministers of righteousness—they're in the churches. These false ministers are in these churches that are also on the public stage in other aspects, in the political realm.
This is because Satan has deceived the whole world. As he said, he is setting us up to accept the rule of the Antichrist. His ministers are in the churches and on the world stage—people like Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen, and others.
These are easy to recognize. These preachers that teach false doctrine—if you're studying and if you're seeking, it's easy to see that they're teaching false doctrine.
We expect these people to know the Bible. When they teach in opposition to the Bible, it's easy to see that they're false.
But then we have these people out here in the world stage—politicians and super famous people that we follow, who have a lot of influence in the world.
People like Elon Musk and Donald Trump—they have a lot of influence in the world, and we want to follow them. But we have to be aware because we give them a pass a lot of times.
We don't expect them to know scripture because they don't proclaim themselves to be a preacher or a leader of a religious establishment. But they do proclaim to be knowledgeable on other things.
Many of these people behind the scenes practice Kabbalah, which is probably the most pure form of satanic Judaic-like Judaism, satanic witchcraft, Jewish mysticism.
I mean, this is tied to magic. You guys saw that in the beginning. This stuff is magic. The Bible forbids us from partaking in that stuff.
So, we have to be aware of some of these people that especially practice Kabbalah. You can read from these people in their own books that they actually do this.
But these people are pushers of the same satanic doctrine. They simply act in the secular realm—in media, Hollywood, and politics.
This causes, like I said, many people to give them a pass because they think, "Oh, that politician doesn't know what he's doing," or "This politician doesn't know what he's doing."
But I've personally been behind the scenes in meetings with some of these people, and they do know what they're doing.
So, just be aware. We have to be careful, and we have to trust what scripture says.
But when we study the scriptures—and that's the whole point for this sermon—when we study the scriptures, the scripture tells us who these wicked ones are. It tells us who our enemy is.
When we can see our enemy, then we know how to avoid this deception. That's why I'm pointing out this synagogue of Satan.
This synagogue of Satan runs the whole world. If you can recognize it at face value, then you cannot be deceived by his propaganda.
So, let's go to Matthew 24:4. Yeshua said unto them, "Take heed that no man deceive you." Right? He told us to be prepared; they're going to try to deceive us.
Matthew 24:11 says, "And many false prophets shall arise and shall deceive many."
2 Thessalonians 2:3 says, "Let no man deceive you by any means, for that day shall not come except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition."
It goes on to say, "And he said, 'Take heed that ye be not deceived, for many shall come in my name, saying, "I am Christ," and the time draweth near. Go ye not after them.'"
So, he's telling us to take heed that we're not deceived. Many shall be deceived. Let no man deceive you.
Take heed that you be not deceived. Christ was constantly warning us—constantly warning us—be not deceived, don't be deceived.
This is end times. The chapter of Matthew 24 is talking about preparing for the end times and the Great Tribulation. He's saying, "Do not be deceived."
This spot in Luke aligns with chapter 24 in Matthew, and then 2 Thessalonians 2 aligns right there with Luke 21 and Matthew 24. These are all end time scenarios being spoken of, and he says, "Let no man deceive you."
This end times deception is about them trying to preach a false Christ or a false agenda—a false Christ agenda, a lawless one who did away with God's commandments for the traditions of men.
This agenda will set a man up to save the world, and this will usher in the Antichrist, who will rally the whole world against Yeshua when he comes back.
Now, let's look and see if there is anything else identifiable. We can recognize these people. We know that the star of Remphan is an identifying feature, as well as many of the Masonic symbols.
So, we know when we see that emblem, either the people that espouse or back that emblem or put it on their stuff—either they don't know what it's tied to, or they're purposefully trying to deceive people.
I would beware of those people's discernment.
The purest form of satanic witchcraft is Kabbalah, which is what we'll focus on here.
So, what is Kabbalah? It's hard to see here, but it says Kabbalah is sometimes translated as mysticism or occult knowledge. It's part of Jewish tradition, Jewish mysticism.
It comes from the Zohar, a collection of written mystical commentaries on the Torah, and from the Babylonian Talmud.
So, Kabbalah is Jewish mysticism based on the teachings of the Babylonian Talmud and the Zohar.
More on this from Wikipedia: "Kabbalah is an esoteric method, discipline, and school of thought in Jewish mysticism. A traditional Kabbalist is called a mekubal. They develop their own transmission of the sacred texts and often use classical Jewish scriptures to explain."
So, these rabbis teach from the Talmud, and they teach what they think the Bible means, not what it actually says in scripture.
If you look over here, practical Kabbalah—these are the people that practice this. It's called in Judaism a branch of the Jewish mystical tradition that concerns the use of magic.
It says it right here: "concerns the use of magic." It was considered permitted white magic by practitioners, reserved for the elite.
Right? So, the elites within Jewish society practice this Kabbalah.
Notice the common theme here: this Jewish tradition, mysticism, occult knowledge, or magic. There's a common theme; it's all Jewish tradition.
Our Messiah rebuked some people in the Bible for their traditions of legalism over the commandments of Yahweh.
Matthew 7:13 says, "Making the word of Yahweh of none effect through your traditions, which you have delivered to many, and such like things that you do."
Matthew 15:6 says, "And honor not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus, ye have made the commandment of Yahweh of none effect through your tradition."
He was constantly rebuking the Pharisees because they were practicing Talmudic tradition and putting that above obedience to Yahweh.
This is why Yeshua called them of their father, Satan. This is why he called them the synagogue of Satan, and this is why he said that they are of their father, the devil, and they lie.
So, clearly, our Messiah was talking to the Sadducees and the Pharisees here—aka the synagogue of Satan.
What are some other signs of someone practicing Kabbalah? For one, they will be following traditions prescribed in the Talmud and not scripture.
That's one of the critical pieces here. Some are listed below, but this is not all-inclusive; this is just a quick little search of what I found.
One is wearing a red string bracelet. You'll notice people like certain movie stars and stuff like Madonna wear those, and they practice Kabbalah.
A lot—I've been around some of those people as well. But these people practice Kabbalah, which they actually do magical spells and stuff like that as well, which are satanic.
Wearing a kippah, like you'll see some of the people in the Hebrew Roots movement and Messianic stuff wearing a kippah, which is not prescribed in the Bible but is prescribed in the Talmud.
Keeping other unbiblical traditions like Hanukkah and things like that. Enforcement of the Noahide laws—we've seen a resurgence in that.
A lot of our politicians here in the United States, including our incoming president, are pushing and enforcing and have Jewish rabbis, Kabbalah rabbis, speaking on behalf of this, talking about pushing these Noahide laws.
The star of Remphan—we already covered that. That's going to be in BL and all over their stuff, all over their organizations and all over their infrastructure.
So, you'll see that star of Remphan. They will practice white or black magic. That's not something we're going to see on the outside looking in.
You may feel that evil on them when you're around these people, but that's hard to tell. That's something where you're going to have to be intimately involved with these people and see behind the scenes to see that kind of stuff.
Other occult or magical practices—I mean, this can include a litany of things that we could go into, but I just wanted to sum it up with that.
Now that we know who the synagogue of Satan is and how to recognize these people, it's easy to see that virtually all of our world leaders are directly linked to this cult.
All you have to do is just dig into them, tie them into Judaism and Kabbalah, and stuff like that, and you can see a lot of them are seen sporting these bracelets, wearing the kippah, doing all these different things, practicing all of these Judaic ceremonies that are just not biblical.
This cult spans many organizations—from Freemasonry to the Jesuits, Kabbalists, Hindus. This cult has influence in Catholicism, Protestantism, and Islam, and works behind the scenes to set the stage for the Antichrist.
This is why none of these groups or religions preach directly what Yahweh's word says. To avoid being deceived, we must maintain strict obedience to Yahweh's word and test everything of the world to see if it aligns with Yahweh's biblical truth.
In the end, Yahweh gave us one way to follow him and obey him, and it's listed in scripture. When we start giving more authority to other books like the Talmud or the teachings of the church fathers when they go against scripture, that's where we fall short.
This is how we make the commandments of Yahweh of none effect through our traditions. It causes us to worship God in vain when we keep our traditions over obedience to him.
In the end, those who believe they have been worshiping in spirit and truth—believe it or not—will be told, "Depart from me," because he doesn't know them.
Matthew 15:9 says, "But in vain do they worship me." He's saying we're worshiping in vain. Why? Because we're teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
We're saying, "Hey, this man says in the Talmud that I believe the scripture means that." We're teaching as commandments the doctrines of men.
When we say, "Church Father so-and-so says," well, I believe the scripture means this. But if we're believing in him, we're worshiping in vain because we're teaching doctrines that are the commandments of men.
We don't do that. We teach our doctrine from scripture, and it must be in complete alignment with scripture. If we find a scripture that's out of alignment with our doctrine, we must revisit it and see where the error is.
But it's our error, not the scriptures. These people are worshiping in vain because they're following the doctrines and the commandments of men.
Then, John 4:23 says, "But the hour cometh, and now is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father seeketh such to worship him."
So, he wants us to worship in spirit and in truth. If you guys have watched my videos, you can see what spirit and truth is—that's walking in obedience to God's commandments.
Walking in spirit and truth is walking in complete obedience to the best of your ability to God's commandments. Yes, we will make mistakes; yes, we will fail, but we're supposed to try.
So, Matthew 7:21-23—you guys know I beat these verses up all the time—but these are the people who are worshiping Yahweh in vain.
He says, "Not everyone—think about these people—they say they worship the Lord." This synagogue of Satan claims that they worship the Most High Father.
They don't accept Christ, but they claim that they worship the Most High. But they don't even keep his commandments; instead, they keep the doctrines of men.
These churches out here that follow what the church fathers teach and the doctrine taught by the church fathers yet go against what God's scripture says—these people are worshiping in vain because they're keeping their doctrines in line with the commandments of men, not with scripture.
So, Matthew 7:21-23 says, "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
Many will say to me in that day when he comes back, when Yeshua comes back, "Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name and cast out many devils and done many wonderful works?"
And he says, "And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you. Depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
Now, let's go to 1 John 2:3. He says, "And hereby we do know that we know him if we keep his commandments."
He said, "I never knew you." Why? Because they weren't keeping the commandments, which is his Father's will.
Right? He says, "Those who enter the kingdom are those that do the will of my Father which is in heaven."
Right? You've got to do the will of the Father—not everyone that says, "Lord, Lord," will come, but only those who doeth the will of his Father, which is keeping the commandments.
He says, "Depart from me; I never knew you." Why? Because if you hereby know that we know him if we keep his commandments.
So, if we're keeping his commandments, we can know that we know him, and therefore he knows us. But if not, he'll say, "I never knew you."
He slams it here: "Depart from me, ye that work iniquity."
Because iniquity is transgressing the commandments, the law. So, he doesn't even know us. We don't even have a relationship with Yahweh the Father.
We don't even know Yeshua, our Savior, if we're not keeping the commandments.
It goes on to say—let's just read this in its context again one more time.
"And hereby we do know that we know him if we keep his commandments. He that saith, 'I know him,' and keepeth not his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him."
Who is a liar and the truth is not in him? We saw that earlier in scripture—Satan. He's the father of all lies. There is no truth in him.
Why? Because he speaketh not the truth. Right? So, when we don't keep the commandments, the Bible says we're a liar, and the truth is not in us.
Why? Because when we keep the commandments, we're walking in this truth.
I can't speak this more clearly to you guys, but when we're walking in the commandments, we're walking in truth.
That's why he says, "He that saith, 'I know him,' and keepeth not his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him."
So, he never knew them because they don't keep the commandments, and because they were still transgressing his laws, which is sin, which is iniquity.
See where this goes? He's constantly harping on this.
So, this is it. We are to obey and keep the law the best that we can. Yes, we'll make mistakes, and we will fail, but we are to try our best.
This is our whole purpose in life. When we obey, we are led by the Spirit and will not be deceived. The Spirit will lead us to all truth, it says.
So, Ecclesiastes 12:13 says, "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Yahweh and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man."
I hope this message has been rewarding for everyone. I hope this helps paint a better picture—a clearer picture of the evil that we're living in in this world and where this enemy hides.
When we know our enemy, we can better defend against him. Satan is very stealthy and deceptive; he is the father of lies.
So, it should not be a surprise that he has lied to us or deceived us. The Bible said it would be this way.
We have to accept the world we live in and do our best to see the evil and avoid it the best that we can.
In summary, this synagogue of Satan is a group that calls themselves Jews but are not. It says that they are of Satan.
Our Messiah tells us exactly who that is. It was the Pharisees of his time that he rebuked for being from Satan.
That same group of people, as you can see, have defiled themselves into an even more satanic and powerful state in our current age. They run everything in the world.
But that should not bring us to fear. I don't want you guys to fear about this. They run everything in the whole world, and that would lead you to want to fear.
But fear is not of Yahweh.
So, this is the message that I want you to take from this: it should not bring us to fear but to hope and joy.
Why is that? We should have hope and joy knowing that everything is playing out exactly as the Bible said it would.
We must stick to our focus and our duty, which is keeping the commandments and walking the way our Messiah walked.
No matter what comes our way, if we endure until the end, we shall be saved.
The key is: don't be fearful, but just know now you're trusting in your Bible. You're right; you should trust in it because everything's playing out exactly how it said.
Things are going to look scary; things are going to look really scary along the way. We're going to be persecuted; we may go through famine; we may deal with a lot of pestilence and things like that.
But if we endure until the end, we shall be saved.
I'll end this with Matthew 24:13. He says, "But he that shall endure until the end, the same shall be saved."
So, if we stick in there and we keep obedience and we keep studying the scriptures, we will be indwelled by the Holy Spirit, who leads us to all truth.
When we're seeking and we're seeking with all of our heart, all of our minds, and all of our souls, we will be led to all truth, and we will not be deceived.
If we endure until the end, the same shall be saved.
So, Yah bless everyone out there. I hope this message was good for you guys, and we'll see you next time.
