Restoring Nazarene Judaism

THE TETRAGRAM AN APPEAL FOR A FINAL RESOLUTION by Chris. J. Koster PART 1 We were prompted to do this study because of the disturbing remark we read in Grote Winkler Prins Encyclopedie1 (Dutch),that the uncertainty as to the true pronunciation of the Name constantly causes embarrassment to Bible translators. But this uncertainty causes much perplexity as well as embarrassment to all believers. Although not always admitted, we firmly believe that this uncertainty has been a major reason for us to be satisfied with, and rather accept and use the surrogate of the Tetragram, up to this day. Surely, the prophetic promise of the revelation of His Name has been given to us, and must be fulfilled: 1. "Therefore My People shall know My Name", Isa. 52:6. 2. “and they shall know that My Name is YHWH", Jer. 16:21. 3. "For then will I turn to the people a pure language (lip), that they may all call upon the Name of YHWH”, Zeph. 3:9. 4. “and we will walk ...

Below is a paper about Lashon Hara ( I did not write it) LASHON HARA by Mikahael ben Moshe "Who is the person who desires life and loves days that he may see the good? Guard your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it." (Psalm 34:12-14). One of the most difficult sections of the Torah to understand is the discussion of "Tzarat," a skin disease commonly mis-translated as "leprosy." In truth, Tzarat is a physical manifestation of a spiritual deficiency. The Talmud (Arachin 16) says that Tzarat comes specifically as a consequence of "lashon hara" - negative speech about another person. We see a solemn story of the dangers of saying something out of turn in the Haftarah. In this story, we see that it can even lead to bloodshed. It is recorded in the latter half of Leviticus 19:16 that "you shall not stand aside while your fellow's blood is shed." ...

Originally posted May 21st, 2010 Shalom Friends, I have a very important announcement. As many of you know The Way International had filed a lawsuit against myself and the WNAE (under our old name of SANJ) this last summer, alleging that portions of the HRV Scriptures infringed on the copyright of a translation they once published about twenty years ago. We responded by arguing that the lawsuit itself was unconstitutional on the basis that Bible translation is Scripture interpretation and Scripture interpretation is doctrine. (The US Supreme court has ruled that the Establishment Clause of the Bill of Rights forbids the court from adjudicating property disputes between religious groups where hearing the case would require the court to consider, weigh or interpret doctrine, or resolve doctrinal issues.) In this case hearing such a case would put the government in the position ...

Was Messiah the "Final Sacrifice"? By James Scott Trimm There is a popular teaching in Christendom that "Jesus" was the "final sacrifice."  Often this premise is then carried forward to the conclusion that since the sacrifices and offerings have been abolished, the Torah, or at least large portions of the Torah, have been abolished.  However the fact is that the Scriptures do not teach that Yeshua was the "final sacrifice" at all.  The Torah warns us about subtracting from it's commandments: You shall not add to the word which I command you, neither shall you subtract a thing from it, that you may keep the commandments of YHWH your Elohim which I command you. (Deuteronomy 4:2) Whatever thing I command you, observe to do it: you shall not add thereto, nor subtract from it. (Deuteronomy 13:1(12:32)) Moreover the Torah tells us repeatedly that its commandments are for all your generations forever: “…it shall be a s...

Judah in Prophecy: You Aint Seen Nothin Yet! By James Scott Trimm The concept of the Two House message was an important message for the world and it generated a good deal of excitement, but it was not the last stage of restoration. The Two House message had to do with the grafting in of “wild branches” (Ephraimites) into the cultivated olive tree (Judah). Now Romans 11 does discuss this stage of the restoration, but it also tells us that an even more powerful stage will involve Judah being grafted back into its own olive tree: And if their stumbling became riches for the world, and their loss, riches to the Goyim: how much more therefore , their fullness? (Rom. 11:12 HRV) For if their reprobation was reconciliation to the world, how much more therefore , their return, but life that is from among the dead? (Rom. 11:15 HRV) 23 And those, if they do not remain in their lack of trust, also will be grafted in: for Eloah is able to graft them in again. 24 For if...

Those Pagan Virgin Birth Stories Evaporate By James Scott Trimm Anti-Missionaries, Atheists and other critics have spread far and wide a false claim that the virgin birth doctrine was borrowed from paganism.  The fact is that this claim is an outright lie.  A close examination of the alleged origins/births of the pagan gods these persons claim were “virgin births” shows that not one of these pagan gods was supposed to be the result of a virgin birth. Horus Horus was the son of Osiris and Isis.  Isis was impregnated by Osiris after she gathered the parts of the dismembered body of her husband Osiris and resurrected him.  In the oldest accounts of the story, she retrieved the whole body, but in later versions she could not locate his male member and so she fashioned a new member for him out of gold.  There was no indication that Isis was a virgin, and the gold member was by implication fully functional.  Horus did not have a virgin birt...

Do You Have to Keep Torah to be Saved? Judaism v. Christendom By James Scott Trimm I have often been asked, does one have to keep the Torah to be saved? Surprisingly, the answer can be fond in the Rabbinic literature. When we look at the basic emphasis of Judaism* and of Christendom, we find that there is a core difference at their very root.  This core difference is closely tied to the two inclinations within man, the Yetzer Ra (the evil inclination) and the Yetzer Tov (the good inclination). R. Nahman b. R. Hisda expounded: What is meant by the text, Then the Lord God formed [va-yetzer] man? [The word va-yetzer] (Gen. 2:7) is written with two yods, to show that God created two inclinations, one good (tov) and the other evil (ra). (b.Ber. 61a) It has been taught: R. Jose the Galilean says, The righteous are swayed by their good inclination, as it says, My heart is slain within me. (Ps. 109:22) The wicked are swayed by their evil inclination, as it says, T...
