| Happy New Year to Believers Every where! 5764 |
| If you are ever in the Los Angeles area please join us in worship. We are a "Jesus Only" group whose beliefs reflect the Shema of ONE G-d. The baptism in Y'shua's NAME reflects our tradition of mikveh, and our receiving the Holy Ghost, with the evvidence of speaking in tongues, is the same Ruach HaKodesh the prophet Elijahu had. |
I believe in the Shema, "Hear, O Israel,
The L-RD our G-d the L-rd is one."
Deut 6:4
If we believe we are monotheistic, that we believe in "One sovereign G-d.",,,
The tritheistic viewpoint is what has hindered the majority of non-believing Jews from becoming Believers as the trinitarian concept to our people is essentially tritheistic which is against G-d's Word and first commandment. Therefore, please consider the following:
Col 2:9
"For in him (talking about Y'shua) dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily."
Y'shua described himself in John 8:58 as the Great I AM,
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, before Abraham was, I AM."
If you study the textus receptus rendering of this verse in Greek, you will observe that the emphasis of this "I am" phrase is that for the Y-H-V-H of the Old Testament, as is made clear by the people wishing to stone Y'shua after this statement on the basis that he was allegedly "blaspheming."
He was claiming to be G-d the Father as the scripture states, "For unto us
a child is born, unto us a son (My comment: emphasis, *the son* will also be called the Father) is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father (emphasis, the son is also the Father!), The Prince of Peace."
The following scripture is given with the Strong’s reference numbers for clarification of the word which is italicized in the English rendering of the King James Version, specifically, the word *he* which is not proceeded by a Strong’s reference.
John 8:24
“I said <2036> (5627) therefore <3767> unto you <5213>,
that <3754> ye shall die <599> (5695) in <1722> your <5216> sins <266>: for <1063> if <3362> ye believe <4100> (5661) not <3362> that <3754> I <1473> am <1510> (5748) *he*, ye shall die <599> (5695) in <1722> your <5216> sins <266>.”
The actual Greek rendering for the English ‘that I am he,’ is
‘hoti egoµ eimi’ = ‘that I am’, which is God's name as found in Exo. 3:14. It was Y-H-V-H, G-d that there said, Ehejeh asher Eheje, I will be what I will be. The inclusion of the word ‘he’ is purely incidental and was not originally found in the original authentic, textus receptus, or ‘received text.’
G-d is described in the Old Testament (Tanakh) as the HOLY ONE of Israel (Psalms 71:22).

“And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.” Rev 4:2
Only one person can sit on the throne of any kingdom, especially the monotheistic kingdom of G-d. What I am trying to tell you, my fellow Messianic Jews, is this:
“Y'shua is. . .” (John 14:6).
John 5:43 “I am come in my Father's name,..” Y'shua is Y'shua's name, and if He came in His Father's name, then what is the Father's name? Y'shua has the Y-H-V-H built in it. Y'shua means " Y-H-V-H our salvation."
Also, G-d is described as a Holy Spirit in the Old Testament (Psalms 51:11) and in the New Testament (Brit HaDasha).
John 14:26 “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost (Spirit), whom the Father will send in my name (IN Y'SHUA'S NAME), he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance.”
With this, I come to my point and imparting of knowledge to you. Y'shua is G-d manifest in the flesh (I Tim 3:16). Isa 42:
“I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.”

The trinitarian viewpoint that you now have has been handed down to you not through the Word of G-d but through “the tradition of men” (Col 2:8) and of the Roman Catholic Church which we all know gives "praise to graven images."
Acts 2:38 “Then Peter said unto them, Repent (Greek 'metanoeo' meaning to change one's mind), and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ (Y'shua Ha Mashiach) for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” I implore you to rethink and rewrite your belief statement on a purely biblical basis, not allowing any of man's tradition, namely the trinitarian concept of the Godhead as
THREE, to corrupt your very fundamental right to "the way, the TRUTH, and the life." Rev 18:4
"Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” 2 Peter 3:18 “But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord (Remember, only one Lord!) and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.”
G-d and (Greek ‘kai’ meaning ‘and,’ as well as ‘even,’ meaning ‘the same as’) our L-rd Y’shua Ha Mashiach bless you,
Brother Moses Costello
