Just another Christian pastor bashing God's Divine Instructions in Righteousness...

 THERE'S NO EASY WAY TO SAY THIS, SO I'LL JUST COME RIGHT OUT AND SAY THAT THIS MAN'S MEMES ARE STRAIGHT FROM THE PITS OF HELL! (I've posted another meme of his at the end of this article.)

I will also say that, if obedience to God's Divine Instructions in Righteousness makes me a "cultist" then so be it! 

I personally will feel much safer humbly kneeling before ADONAI-ELOHIM on Judgment Day, knowing I did my best to Shema (Hebrew: "Hear AND do!") His Will as outlined in the Torah (first five Books of the Bible that contain ALL of Yahweh's original Instructions, Genesis through Deuteronomy), than to tremble before Him while trying to defend the reasons why I dared to loudly and arrogantly preach and teach that Jesus came to abolish everything His Father ever commanded and that ADONAI's Torah became irrelevant simply "because Jesus died!"

Pastor Solberg, in case you've forgotten, the Messiah you presume to serve was a Torah observant, tallit-wearing, seventh day Sabbath and Feast-keeping, kosher JEW whose followers, for a century AFTER Yeshua's death, ALL kept Torah ... a concept which became distorted, and even forbidden, once the Catholic Church came onto the scene. 

This means, YESHUA was to blame for starting this Torah-obedient thing you call a "cult" ... and yet, the Catholic Church, most Christian denominations, and people like yourself believe they should be lauded for trying to squash it...

Well, if that's the case, then I would highly urge you to ponder the following fact:

By trashing God's Torah, you are also TRASHING HIS MESSIAH - the LIVING Torah and Word of YHWH (John 1:1-2 and John 1:14); the manna, the bread of life sent from heaven (John 6:28-40)!

Yeshua - the One you are trashing - was the "I am that was before Abraham" (John 8:58). "Yeshua said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No man comes to the Father except by me." (John 14:6) The Living Torah, came to, in part, show people how to live a holy, set apart life ... the holy instructions that came straight FROM the Torah! 

Let's just for a moment, discuss God's Messiah, from the Hebrew viewpoint:

Yeshua (the "arm of YHWH" - Isaiah 53:1, and The Word - John 1:1 and 14), whose given Hebrew Name means "Yahweh is Salvation") came NOT to abolish anything His Father commanded, but to proclaim the Kingdom of Elohim and do everything His Father commanded (he even PRAYED to the Father, NOT himself!)... and then to martyr himself to become our Redeemer.

He didn't come to bring a religion called "Christianity" or any other "religion" (God is NOT about "religion!); he came to proclaim the Word that was from the beginning ... the Word that STANDS FOREVER!

Luke 4: 43 "But he (Yeshua) said, "I must preach the good news of the Kingdom of G-d to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent."

I've read the Bible many times over, and nowhere have I ever seen that Yeshua preached against the Kingdom or His Father's Divine Instructions. Matter of fact, he CONSTANTLY preached them.

And, oh my - what a surprise! - So did Paul!

Acts 28: 23 "From morning till evening the Apostle Paul explained and declared the Kingdom of G-d and tried to convince people about Yeshua from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets."

Acts 24: 14. But this indeed I (Paul) acknowledge, that in that same doctrine of which they speak, I do serve the Elohim of my fathers, believing all the things written in Torah and in the prophets.

Paul even said this (and I pray you will humble yourself enough to let it sink in) ...

Romans 3:31 Do we then nullify Torah through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish Torah...

Note the word "establish" above. If, as you suggest, Torah was abolished at the cross, then how could it be written on our hearts?

Yeshua warned us about people like yourself:

Matthew 7: 13. Enter by the straight door, for wide is the door and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many are they, those that go in it. 14. How narrow the door and straight the road that leads to life, and few are they, those that find it. 15. Beware of false prophets that come among you in the clothing of lambs, but from within are ravenous wolves. 16. But you will know them by their fruits.

So, there you have it, straight from Yeshua and his Apostles!  

Pastor Solberg, here's one final verse to contemplate as you take a gander, below, at another of the nasty memes I copied from your Facebook wall, that illustrates the silly moniker you have attached to THE WORD OF GOD. SHAME ON YOU! I pray that ADONAI-ELOHIM will open your spiritual eyes to see the blasphemy you've been perpetrating against Him, because your mortal soul is in danger!

 Proverbs 28:9 If a person will not listen to Torah, even his prayer is an abomination.

I challenge you and all your followers to click here to read this article on my website for a complete picture of who our Messiah truly is ... from the HEBREW instead of the Greek viewpoint.

 
 
 

God wants His people to stop straying

THROUGHOUT THE BIBLE, WE SEE STERN WARNINGS THAT ADONAI-ELOHIM’S PEOPLE MUST STAY ON TRACK and stop straying, because the enemy is out there constantly, ready to strike at a moment's notice. Throughout the ages, we have over and over again seen YHWH warning His people to humble themselves before Him, and to remain clean in thought and deed Here is just one example:

James 4:1. From where is it, that there are among you arguments and conflicts? Is it not from the lusts which war in your members? 2. You covet but do not possess; and you kill and envy, and effect nothing: and you fight and make attacks; and you do not have, because you do not ask. 3. You ask, and do not receive because you ask wickedly, that you may feed your lusts.

4. You adulterers, don't you know that the love of the world is hatred towards Elohim? He therefore who chooses to be a lover of this world is the enemy of Elohim. 5. Or do you think that the Scripture has vainly said: The spirit dwelling in us lusts with envy?

6. But our Master (Y'shua) has given us more grace. Therefore he said: Master YHWH brings low the arrogant, and gives grace to the humble. 7. Subject yourselves therefore to Elohim; and stand firm against the Accuser and he will flee from you. 8. Draw near to Elohim and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners: sanctify your hearts, you who are divided in mind.[1] 9. Humble yourselves and mourn: let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into grief. 10. Humble yourselves before Master YHWH and He will exalt you.

11. Speak not against each other, my Brothers; for he that speaks against his brother, or judges his brother speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are not a doer of Torah, but its judge. 12. There is one Torah-giver[2] and Judge who can make alive and (can) destroy: but who are you that you judge your neighbor?  (AENT)

FOOTNOTES:

[1] Torah is our judge! If you add your own judgments to those already established in the Torah of YHWH, then you have judged Torah as insufficient, and are not allowing it to be your judge.

[2] One Torah Giver who gives One Torah. The halacha (way to observe Torah) is revealed by the Ruach haKodesh, and demonstrated in Mashiyach. The concept of "two torahs" one oral and one written is the basis of authority on which the Rabbinate operates.

"The Rabbis" wrote their own "oral Torah" and give themselves the authority to interpret it; unfortunately, their oral Torah often speaks against both the Written Torah and haMashiyach.

On the other hand, Christian theologians have made up their own "New Testament" based on their own non-Torah cultural value systems which makes void Torah and diminishes the true goal of Mashiyach.

For those who are “pro-choice,” please examine some Bible Passages that might change your mind

Diving right in, let’s see what the BIBLE says about humans:

Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, in the likeness of ourselves; and let them rule over the fish in the sea, the birds in the air, the animals, and over all the earth, and over every crawling creature that crawls on the earth." 27 So God created humankind in his own image; in the image of God he created him: male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them: God said to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it." (CJB)

NOTE that YHWH "created humankind in his own image" (not necessarily in appearance; but rather, to reflect His Essence, "who" He is; His Divine Holiness....)

Eggs and sperm reside inside LIVING beings. They are living organisms that DO something: when activated via the sex act, they come together to create a living, breathing human being that does what? - it reflects YHWH's IMAGE!

Now, let’s check out some verses which prove that pre-born babies ARE considered human beings by the Almighty Himself:

Exodus 21:22 “If people are fighting with each other and happen to hurt a pregnant woman so badly that her unborn child dies, then, even if no other harm follows, he must be fined. He must pay the amount set by the woman’s husband and confirmed by judges. 23 But if any harm follows, then you are to give life for life, 24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 burn for burn, wound for wound and bruise for bruise. (CJB)

The passage above reveals that if the child lives and is unharmed, the one who made the mother go into labor must still be punished for the couple's pain and suffering.

Isaiah 49:5 So now Adonai says — he formed me in the womb to be his servant, to bring Ya‘akov back to him, (CJB)

Genesis 25:22 The children fought with each other inside her so much that she said, “If it’s going to be like this, why go on living?” So she went to inquire of Adonai, 23 who answered her, “There are two nations in your womb. From birth they will be two rival peoples. One of these peoples will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.” (CJB)

Psalm 139:13 For you fashioned my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I thank you because I am awesomely made, wonderfully; your works are wonders — I know this very well. 15 My bones were not hidden from you when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. 16 Your eyes could see me as an embryo, but in your book all my days were already written; my days had been shaped before any of them existed. (CJB)

Could it be any clearer?

Luke 1:39 Without delay, Miryam set out and hurried to the town in the hill country of Y’hudah 40 where Z’kharyah lived, entered his house and greeted Elisheva.  41 When Elisheva heard Miryam’s greeting, the baby in her womb stirred. Elisheva was filled with the Ruach HaKodesh 42 and spoke up in a loud voice, “How blessed are you among women! And how blessed is the child in your womb! (CJB)

The above passage upholds the personhood and value of the unborn in several ways:

• Elisheva (Elizabeth) calls Miryam (Mary) a mother, despite Miryam being in the very early stages of her pregnancy.
• Upon hearing Miryam’s voice, the unborn Yochanan (John) the Baptizer leaps for joy in Elisheva’s womb, meaning he is a person capable of emotion.
• Yochanan’s reaction also means he was capable of recognizing Miryam’s voice and acknowledging the unborn Messiah even in the womb! And lastly, this encounter represents a partial fulfilment of Yochanan’s life purpose: to announce the arrival of Mashyiach Yeshua. Even before he was born, Yochanan had begun to fulfill his life’s calling!

Please read on:

Jeremiah 1:4 Here is the word of Adonai that came to me: 5 “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; before you were born, I separated you for myself. I have appointed you to be a prophet to the nations.” (CJB)

The Holy One consecrated Jeremiah and appointed him to be a prophet while he was still in his mother’s womb. Before he was even born, ADONAI already had a plan for his life - and God even SAID He personally formed Jeremiah and knew him in the womb!

Psalm 51:5-6: True, I was born guilty, was a sinner from the moment my mother conceived me. Still, you want truth in the inner person; so make me know wisdom in my inmost heart. (CJB)

In the above passage, David’s words reveal he was not simply an “impersonal entity”; rather a person with the ability to be a sinner from conception on — and one desired by God.

Judges 13:3 The angel of Adonai appeared to the woman and said to her, “Listen! You are barren, you haven’t had a child, but you will conceive and bear a son. 4 Now, therefore, be careful not to drink any wine or other intoxicating liquor, and don’t eat anything unclean. 5 For indeed you will conceive and bear a son. No razor is to touch his head, because the child will be a nazir for God from the womb. Moreover, he will begin to rescue Isra’el from the power of the P’lishtim.” (CJB)

In the above passage, an angel tells Manoach’s wife that she will conceive and give birth to Shimshon (Samson), who will be a Nazarite “from the womb,” meaning ADONAI had a plan for him prior to and from the moment of his conception! (Nazarites were Israelites whose lives were consecrated to the service of God - See Numbers 6.)

Please notice, Shimshon’s mother is even instructed to follow the same restrictions a Nazarite must follow while she is pregnant! Notice the angel’s use of the personal pronouns “his” and “he” when talking about the boy’s Nazarite status, providing both personhood and agency to a preborn child.

For those still insisting a fetus is just a “blog of tissue” that isn’t human – I urge you to read the Bible, from cover to cover, so you can get a grasp of just how very important God’s entire Creation is to Him … especially the humans who, we are told, are MADE IN HIS IMAGE.

Please take a moment to read Genesis 9:5-6, and notice that, when coupled with Genesis 1:26-27, we can see that abortion (a contemporary issue about which there are endless pro and con debates and arguments) IS MURDER! The "abortion rights" advocates keep insisting that "it's not a baby until it's born."

Here is what the CREATOR says to those who destroy HIS Image:

Genesis 9:5 I will certainly demand an accounting for the blood of your lives: I will demand it from every animal and from every human being. I will demand from every human being an accounting for the life of his fellow human being. 6 Whoever sheds human blood, by a human being will his own blood be shed; for God made human beings in his image. (CJB)

An embryo is nourished by human blood. It GROWS inside its mother, which means it is ALIVE! (Dead organisms don't grow.) So, no matter what the "Pro-Choice" types insist: snuffing out an embryo's life is MURDER in YHWH's eyes!

Thank You, YHWH, for these awesome revelations!
