_ ? Fed to the Lions
Posted on http://4yahweh.org/ by Sha'ul Dag
All through our lives, and the lives of our families, all of the way back as we can research, the story of the Romans "Feeding christians to the lions", has been accepted as truth, and never really contested. The further I get into Scripture, and my relationship with Yah and Yeshua, the more I find the old stories of our youth, all stem from Roman propaganda, and then later twisted to replace the original players in each story.
We must start off with some facts, before we delve into the fairy tales, so that we may see the fairy tales for what they are. Fact number one. Early believers in the Messiah Yeshua were not called "christians". I know, you will cite Acts 11, and say I am wrong. Of course, if you look at the Romanized KJV, and other Bibles that were spun off of it, it says right there, "christian". If we look at the Complete Jewish Bible, it says this:
Acts 11:26 and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. They met with the congregation there for a whole year and taught a sizeable crowd. Also it was in Antioch that the talmidim (followers of Yeshua) for the first time were called "Messianic."
In order to decipher this contradiction of terms, we must look to verifiable history to get the answer. It is fact that christianity as we know it today, has its roots in fourth century Rome. Fourth century Rome drew its beliefs from the Greeks, and their false gods. Greece drew upon the ancient Phoenicians, the Phoenicians drew upon the Egyptian gods, and Egypt drew upon the Babylonian gods. We see a straight line from Babylon, all of the way to Rome, without once stopping, merging with, or even touching Scripture.
The term "christ" means "Anointed". To a pagan false god worshiper, all of their gods would be "Anointed". Since the Greeks and Romans shared the same gods, all of their gods were considered Anointed, or "christ". When Yah and Yeshua confused the languages of Bavel (Babylon), The "gods" of Bavel, Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz, all gained numerous names to describe them. Nimrod gained the name of Ra, Adonis, Ba'al, and many others. Tammuz gained the names Mithra, Zeus, Isis, among many others. Semiramis gained names such as Ishtar, Easter, Aphrodite, Mary and many more (mother nature, etc...).
When Constantine, an avid sun god worshiper, took over a failing Roman government, He decided to create a universal religion in order to unite the empire. A religion to unite all of their "Anointed" gods into one belief, and to make it the law of the land. This religion of the anointed came to be known as "christianity" (Worship of the Anointed). This new religion was not acceptable to the Set Apart Torah believing, Yeshua following Worshipers of the True God.
In 70 AD, the Temple in Yahrushalim (Jerusalem) was destroyed by the Roman authorities, because of the fact that the people who worshiped in that Temple, did not conform to the new religion. The Temple was pilfered, and looted by the Romans, not only as an act of malice, but also manipulation. When we look at the architecture of later Roman buildings, they depict the event graphically.
Along with all of the solid gold Temple items, were the Scriptures too. Including the Original Scrolls containing the B'rit Chadashah (New Testament). This afforded the Roman government the opportunity to re-write the Scriptures with the names of our Creator and the Messiah, CHANGED into the names of their False gods. WHY? So that they could try to convince people that their gods were the gods of Scripture, and their gods were the "holy ones".
It was still rejected by the Jew and Gentile Torah following believers, because at that time, children were brought up on the Torah, and usually had it memorized, along with the True Names that were written in it. Couple this with the memory of Yeshua still fresh in some of the older people's minds, and their first hand accounts, and Rome had a problem tricking them into accepting the new religion called "christianity", and the new scriptures that were re-written with new names. THIS is how the word "christian" got into Acts 11, along with other parts of the B'rit Chadashah.
It was not an error of translation, it was blatant Blaspheme of the Holy Scriptures, The Creator, and His Son. The word "Church" replaced the word "Gathering", along with a host of other changes that we still have in today's Bibles. Speaking of today, we come to the reason for the title of this discussion. Knowing the fact that an obedient Roman citizen who accepted christianity as their new religion, was not a threat to the continuity of the Roman government, and they were conformists, why on earth would they be thrown to the lions?
The answer is rather simple. Christians were not thrown to the lions. It was the Torah observant, Messiah believing True believers who were. But as the years turned into decades, and the decades turned into centuries, and centuries turned into Millennia, people throughout the ages have been trying to get closer to Yah through his word. Their problem is, they have been trying to do so under their own power, and their own intelligence, rather than allowing Yeshua to guide them. Couple this, with the KJV that was based solely on Roman interpretation and the Jewish Talmudic interpretation, and we have mass confusion (Bavel). Christians believe today, that it was their ancestors who believed as they do now, and who were called christians, that were thrown to the lions.
Little do they know that they are carrying on the traditions and the religious beliefs, established in Rome, and not the beliefs that were established in Scripture. They call on "jesus", which has evolved from Iesus, which came from Iesous, which came from Isis, which by the way, is one of the hundreds of names for Tammuz the Babylonian sun god. They call the Creator "God", which is a general term for any god. Heck, the rock band Kiss, have been called "gods". So they lump the Creator of the universe in with a satanic rock band, and they still believe they are doing as Yeshua established. The veil of blindness is still upon them, and they have been taught that "god knows their hearts", so the effort to even come close to Yah is not in them. They have bought the False history, The False Messiah and the False god, and have been snowed into believing that they all will go to Heaven as long as they believe in "Isis".
The whole reason for this Ministry, is to assist people who have come away from that veil of deception. Assist them with coming closer to the Father, and learning His Instructions (Torah) so that they may implement it into their lives, and be seen as Good and Faithful Servants by Yeshua Himself.
