Matthew chapter 16 records the momentous discussion which took place, between Yeshuwa' of Naatsaret and his 12 apostles, who had been following him for the previous three and a half years, during which time they had witnessed the "mighty deeds and signs and wonders which YEHVAH ELOHIYM THE ALMIGHTY ONE of the Jews had accomplished through His beloved Son Yeshuwa' Mashiyach" (Acts 2:22) and the testimony of Yeshuwa' that he was the promised Mashiyach (Anointed) as written about in the Jewish Scriptures.

'YESHUWA' [Pronounced 'yeh-shoo-ah' is the Aramaic and Hebrew name given to the Anointed) (Matthew 1:21); first asked his disciples: "What do men say about me?" (Matthew 16:13).

The disciples responded by saying : "some say that 'he is Yochanon the Baptizer', and others say that 'he is the prophet Eliyah, and still others say that 'he is the prophet Yeremiah', or that 'he is one of the other prophets'".
(Matthew 16:13, 14).

From this we see that, like today, the people in general had MANY WRONG BELIEFS as to who the Jewish Yeshuwa' of Naatsaret is.

Yeshuwa'; [Pronounced: Yey-shoo-ah]; then further pressed his disciples by asking them "But what do you say about me?" (Matthew 16:15).

The apostle Matthew records that "Shimeon answered and said to him: "You are HaMashiyach [which means 'the (Jewish) Anointed'], the Son of the Living Elohiym, who has come into this world (Matthew 16:16 Original Hebrew Vsn).

Immediately, Yeshuwa' said to Shimeon: "Blessed are you, Shimon, the son of Yonah, because, flesh and blood has not revealed this to you but my Father Who is in heaven" (Matthew 16:17).

From this we see that the many differing ideas held by human beings as to who the JEW Yeshuwa' is, CONTRASTED with the true identity of Yeshuwa' which was REVEALED - by THE LIVING AND ONLY TRUE ELOHIYM - YeHVaH ELOHIYM THE FATHER - to the apostle Shimeon.

For about 30 YEARS BEFORE the arrival of Christianity "MANY THOUSANDS" (Acts 2:41. 6:7) of the "JEWS" and the Jewish "PRIESTS" believed the "Good News of the Kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 4:17. 24:14) that Yeshuwa' is haMashiyach [The Jewish Anointed] preached by Yeshuwa' and his Jewish "12 apostles of The Ram" (Revelation 21:14).

"ANTIYOKUS - THE ABOMINATION WHO CAUSES DESOLATION"

(Matthew 24:15. 1 John 2:18)

Yeshuwa' Mashiyach warned his disciples of the coming - within the lifetime of the twelve apostles - of  "ANTIYOKUS - THE ABOMINATION WHO CAUSES DESOLATION, SPOKEN OF BY DANIEL THE PROPHET" (Matthew 24:14, 15 Hebrew version. See this website). 

"Antiyokus" calling himself "yeshu notsry (jesus christ)" (Acts 22:8) manifested himself to the unrepentant murderer and self-confessing "UNGODLY" (Romans 4:5. 5:6) SAUL/PAUL.  

Later generations of JEWS; during the intervening 1970 YEARS; have gladly endured cruel tortures and slaughters (at least 10 million) and ill-treatments in CHRISTIAN crusades, inquisitions, holocausts and ghettoes because they REJECTED the christian "ANTIYOKUS" (Matthew 24:15) a.k.a. 'yeshu; jesus; yeshu notsry; jesus nazarene; jesus christ; logos; god manifest in the flesh" preached by the devil and  false apostle 'Paul' who founded christianity in Antioch, the city built by ANTIYOKUS, in Syria where "his followers were FIRST called christians" (Acts 11:26).

CHRISTIANS ARE DECEIVED INTO DYING IN THEIR SINS

For two thousand years, Christians; of EVERYONE of the twenty eight thousand denominations of Christianity (Ref: Barretts 1988 edition of The Worldwide Encyclopedia of Christianity) have been deceived into believing the christian "LIE"; first taught by the false apostle 'Paul'; that their 'jesus'; 'jesus christ', is the JEWISH MESSIAH and an equal member of what scripture says is the "foreign god" (Daniel 11:39) called 'the trinity' or 'triunity'  or that he is 'god [Satan (Greek: ho theos) manifest in the flesh' (1 Timothy 3:16.  2 Corinthians 4:4).

So it is clear that Christians have never heard of and therefore do not know of Yeshuwa' Mashiyach (who is the only begotten Son of the Only True Elohiym - YeHVaH Elohiym The Father) who has come into this world and became flesh in the womb of the virgin Miriam.

Christians, of all denominations, are led by their Pauline appointed "DEMON LEADERS" (Revelation 18:2) of Christianity to DENY the belief of the apostle Shimeon, that "YESHUWA', of Naatsaret, is HaMASHIYACH (The Anointed) the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON; - of THE LIVING and THE ONLY TRUE ELOHIYM, THE FATHER; - WHO HAS COME INTO THIS WORLD" as testified by Shimeon and the rest of "The 12 apostles of the Ram " (Matthew 1:20. 16:16. 1 John 5:1. Revelation 21:14).

The Eternal consequences of listening to and believing the LIES of Pauline appointed Christian and Trinitarian popes, rabbis, professors and clergy is clearly stated by Yeshuwa': That EVERYONE -- who DOES NOT BELIEVE that Yeshuwa' of Naatsaret is the Mashiyach (the Anointed) the only begotten Son; of The Only True Elohiym, YeHVaH Elohiym The Father; Who has come into this world and who became flesh in the womb of the virgin Miriam -- DOES WRONG TO HIS OWN SOUL and ...LOVES DEATH and HAS NO EVERLASTING LIFE" (Proverbs 8:36. Matthew 1:20. 1 John 5:12).

THE BELIEF OF THE TWELVE APOSTLES OF THE RAM
(1 John 5:4,5. Jude 1:3. Revelation 21:14)

Disciples of Yeshuwa', like Shimeon and the rest of "the twelve apostles of the Ram" (Rev 21:14), "BELIEVE The good news of The Kingdom of Heaven that Yeshuwa' of Naatsaret (Nazareth) is HaMashiyach (The Anointed) the only begotten Son - of The Living and The Only True Elohiym The Father - who came into this world and became flesh in the womb of the virgin Miriam, and believing have everlasting life in His Name"(Matthew 1:20. 4:17. 16:16. 1 John 5:1,12,13 etc).

DECISION TIME

Dear Reader, what is your reply to the question asked by Yeshuwa' ; WHAT DO YOU SAY ABOUT ME" (Matthew 16:15)???

If you continue to DENY that the JEW "Yeshuwa' of Naatsaret, is HaMashiyach (The prophesied Jewish Anointed), the only begotten son - of The Living and the Only True Elohiym the Father - who has come into this world and became flesh in the womb of the virgin Miriam...YOU WILL DIE IN YOUR SINS" (Matthew 1:20. 16:16. 1 John 4:14).

We, in love, urge you to urgently ACCEPT the loving INVITATION of "Yeshuwa' HaMashiyach [the Jewish Anointed]" to "Come out from among them [Christians, Muslims, Hindus etc] lest you take part in their sins and share in their plagues [cancers, sexual diseases, child abuses, wars, factions, corruptions of scripture etc]" (Revelation 18:4).

Barretts Worldwide Encyclopedia of Christianity declares that one of the MANY "plagues" (Revelation 18:4) experienced by Christians is the many (28,000+) Pauline inspired 'factions' or denominations into which they are divided by "worldly minded popes, rabbis, professors and clergy, who, for prestige, expensive palaces and free houses and money, cause the divisions, wars, hatreds between their christian followers and their neighbours and the slaughter of at least 10,000,000 [Yes: ten million] JEWS, over the last 2,000 years, and the burning and corruptions of their sacred scriptures.

It is not surprising that the official Christian Encyclopedia; Barretts Worldwide Encyclopedia (1988 Ed); also describes Christianity as 'Sectarianism run riot' whose members 'hate one another'
