OPEN LETTER TO ALL MODERN DAY CHRISTENDOM




I like the zeal that you have for seeking God's Word, but you do it with a lack of knowledge. You are throwing out everything that the Lord said to do; get circumcised, keep the dietary law, keep His commandments, keep His Sabbath Days. Every word which proceeds out of the mouth of God is Law; Matthew 4:4.


Now to the subject of the dietary law, which you say is no more, because the Lord changed His mind and now says that you can eat anything all you have to do is pray over it. I want to ask you, do you know when the Dietary Law began? I know that you said that it was given to the Israelites in the days of Moses; Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 and that the law was for "them". However, how about Noah? The Lord told him what beasts were clean and unclean, did you know that;
Genesis 6:17-20, Genesis 7:1-2.


The Law of the clean and unclean beasts; that which may be eaten, was given in the days of Noah. All this was said by the Lord unto Noah in the days of the flood. I want you to show me where the Lord has said that you can eat anything.


In
Leviticus 11:43-47, the Lord says, "...you shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing or make yourselves unclean, but be holy and sanctify yourselves and be holy; for I am Holy. And this is the law of the beasts and the fowl, and every creature that moveth in the waters and that creepeth upon the earth, to make a difference between the unclean and the clean which He put in the Ark with Noah. The beasts that may be eaten and the beasts that may not be eaten.


Now, I ask you, if you are not keeping the law of the beasts (Dietary Law) and are eating whatever you want, "Are you Holy?" Is your Church Holy? Read
Isaiah 65:2-5; Isaiah 66:17. Now, I ask you, do you eat pork and go to church?


I see that you quoted Acts 10th chapter, and referencing it as one of the places that the Lord said that you could eat anything. However, this chapter has nothing to do with food, it is about Peter having been given the "keys to the kingdom"; being sent to teach another nation the word God sent to the children of Israel;
Acts 10:36: that God is no respecter of person and that you should not call any man common or unclean.


Have you not read where the Lord does not change;
Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8? So, the words that the Lord spoke to Adam, Noah, and Moses are still good to this day, or are you calling the Lord a liar?


I also see that you have cast off the law of the circumcision, the covenant that God made with Abraham,
Genesis 17:9-13, and his seed after him for an everlasting covenant. Wait just a minute!! Did the Lord say for everlasting? Here again, you say the Lord changed His mind, and the same thing with the Sabbath day.


The Lord changed it from the seventh day of the week to the first day of the week. Who is it that is blaspheming God's Word? The Lord says those who blaspheme against the Holy Ghost (His Words) shall not be forgiven in this world or the world to come;
Matthew 12:31-32.

How about the one where the Lord died on "good Friday" and was raised from the dead on Sunday, however, the Lord said He would be in the grave for three days and three nights;
Matthew 12:39-40. Go figure that one out!


I guess you also say that the Lord's Sabbath days mentioned in Leviticus 23 are no more. Even though the Lord says these are His feasts;
Leviticus 23:1-2, not the "Jews feasts". The Lord also says that we shall "do them for ever throughout your generations"; Leviticus 23:21, 31, 41. But, once again, you say the Lord has changed. I will tell you this, once you understand the 23rd chapter of Leviticus, you will have an understanding of God's Plan.


As for the Lords High Days, the Passover is this month, March 29th at evening and the following day, March 30th, beginning at evening is the first night of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Services (class) will be held for the Passover a 7:30 pm, March 29, 2010, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread will be held March 31st, at noon. Come check out the Lord's Sabbath Days, because the Lord says that His Sabbaths Days are a sign between Him and His people, which He has sanctified;
Ezekiel, 20:12, 19-20. I know that in all your self-understanding of the Scriptures that you probably have never kept any of the Lords Feasts depicted in Leviticus 23.


Now, let me see if I have a clear understanding about what you say we do not have to observe anymore, according to your understanding of the Scriptures. We don't have to keep the Law of the clean and unclean beasts, which may be eaten, even though the Lord spoke this law to Noah, Moses and made mention to Isaiah that people who break His dietary Laws provoke Him continually to His face;
Isaiah 65:2-3.


These are those who have their own thoughts, but the Lord will come and render His anger against those which sanctify themselves behind the tree that is in the midst of the garden, saying it is alright to eat swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse. You know, all the things that were in the curtain in
Acts 10:11-12.


Since you have read this why don't you get some of your friends together and have a feast on eating the mouse, because you quoted
Acts 10:15 and according to you, "That which God has cleansed call not common", so now everything is clean.


However, that must not be so, because the Lord said He will come and the slain of the Lord shall be many, now this is future. The doctrine that you speak is from the "tree in the midst of the garden". You know, the one which Adam and Eve ate from, after they were told "you shall not surely die";
Genesis 3:4. Where are they?


You say all we have to do is pray over everything, but those of us that believe and know the truth, do separate our meats through prayer;
1 Timothy 4:1-5, the clean from the unclean. As for the circumcision this covenant was made with Abraham and to him alone; Isaiah 51:1-2, and the Scripture says if you be Abraham's seed, you would do the things that Abraham did; John 8:39. However, you observe nothing which the Lord has said to do, so what "Jesus" is this that you are talking about? It must be the one Paul is talking about in 2 Corinthians 11:4.


I am certain that in your heart you believe that you are doing right, but I can't help but think that you are one of those that the Lord is speaking about in
Isaiah 8:20, those who speak not according to this word, the Law (Old Testament) and to the Testimony (New Testament). It is because there is no light (truth) in them, they have transgressed the laws; changed the ordinance; broken the everlasting covenant; Isaiah 24:5.


So, if I were you I would think seriously about what I say in reference to God's Word, because you certainly fit this prophecy (
Isaiah 24:5). Please read 1 Chronicles 16:14-17. How is it that people think they know the Word of God when no man has instructed them; Acts 8:26-31. I hope that after you read this that you do not harden your heart against what you have read in this letter; Hebrews 4:7.


Come join us on the Sabbath and on the Passover, and Feast of Unleavened Bread. I know that you probably have never observed these high days, because you have been lied to all these years. These Feast days and the Sabbath day point to the return of Jesus Christ. Most people that read these scriptures,
Colossians 2:16-17, think that it says that you can eat anything, but what it is really saying is that we keep these Sabbath days as a memorial to remind us of things to come.


I know you may have some idea about the seventh day, but what about the Eighth day, spoken of in
Leviticus 23:39, or are you saying that the Old Testament is no more? There is much that I want to tell you about the God of Israel, Jesus Christ, so that you may learn how to become a part of the commonwealth of Israel; Ephesians 2:11-13, 19-20.


Before we go any further, I must tell you that I am an Israelite out of the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel), and I am a member of God's house, the house of Jacob. Like Paul, I magnify my office;
Romans 11:13. God has not spoken to any other nation but Israel; Psalms 147:19-20; Amos 3:2 and all of the Prophets were Israelites; Amos 2:11. As it was then so it is now. We (Israelites) have all the answers, because the Lord gave everything to Israel; Romans 9:4-5. When Christ came He came as an Israelite, but being physical Israel is not enough you must also be spiritual Israel. You see, all Israel is not Israel, because they keep not His word; Romans 9:6-7.


I just want to let you know that we know who we are and what our job is: to teach all of the sons of Adam about the God of Israel, we are the Priest,
Exodus 19:5-6. Come join us at The Israel of God; Galatians 6:16.
