[2]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [802B]

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Ephesians 2:2, (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible; DRCB).

Violence by false religions actually prove what the Bible says at 2 Corinthians 2:11,  “That we be not overreached by Satan. For we are not ignorant of his devices.” Warning all to not become doers of wrong according to the will of Satan, and Satan keeps disguising himself and has been successful in misleading all the religious leaders of false religion and this is highlighted at, 2Co 11:14  “And no wonder: for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light., “  So all should change their life around and stop following Satan as noted at, Acts 26:18, “To open their eyes, that they may be converted from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a lot among the saints, by the faith that is in me.” (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible; DRCB).

[3]   DISCOURSE ON TITUS 2:11-13:

“11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12  Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” (Titus 2:11-13 King James Bible - AV)

This set of scripture, Titus 2:11 -13, has proven difficult for some to develop an accurate understanding of its significance and its purpose.  The significance and meaning will be brought out by excerpts from many world renown commentators on the Bible and by myself:

VERSE 11:  Let’s start with Verse 11 with a scriptural quote from three different well known translations of the Bible:

“11  Who must be reproved, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.” (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible, DHRC)

“11 ¶ For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men,” (American Standard Version – ASV)

“11  Whose mouths must needs be stopped, men who are upsetting whole houses, teaching the things which ought not to be taught—for the sake of base gain.” (Rothrham)

Verse 11. For the grace of God. The favour of God, shown to the undeserving "Ro 1:7".

That bringeth salvation. Marg., to all men, hath appeared. That is, in the margin, "the grace which brings salvation to all men has been revealed." The marginal reading is most in accordance with the Greek, though it will bear either construction. If that which is in the text be adopted, it means that the plan of salvation has been revealed to all classes of men; that is, that it is announced or revealed to all the race that they may be saved. Comp. "Col 1:23". If the other rendering be adopted, it means that that plan was fitted to secure the salvation of all men; that none were excluded from the offer; that provision had been made for all, and all might come and be saved. Whichever interpretation be adopted, the sense here will not be essentially varied. It is, that the gospel was adapted to man as man, and therefore might include servants as well as masters; subjects, as well as kings; the poor, as well as the rich; the ignorant, as well as the learned. See "1Ti 2:1,2"; "Ac 17:26".  (B)

This scripture, “11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,” makes clear that Almighty God (YHWH) has seen it proper to have his Son, Jesus (Jeshua or YHWH saves), to bring salvation to all those with a right heart condition through his plan of salvation.  (I)

Titus 2:11 {5} For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

(5) The eighth admonition belongs to all the godly: seeing that God calls all men to the Gospel, and Christ has so justified us, that he has also sanctified us, all of us must therefore give ourselves to true godliness, and righteousness, setting before us a sure hope of that immeasurable glory.  And this thing must be so learned by them that the deniers also must be reproved, by the authority of the mighty God.  (G)

#Tit 2:11-15

   Hath appeared to all men. The divine favor shown forth in the gospel of salvation is for all men, servants as well as masters. (BJ)

VERSE 12:  Now, Let’s consider Verse 12  with a scriptural quote from three different well known translations of the Bible:

“12  A certain one of them, a prophet of their own, said—‘Cretans! always liars, evil beasts, lazy bellies!’” (Youngs Bible Translation, YLT)

“12  instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world;” (ASV)

“12  One of them a prophet of their own, said: The Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, slothful bellies.” (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible)

Verse 12. Teaching us. That is the "grace of God" so teaches us; or that system of religion which is a manifestation of the grace of God, inculcates the great and important duties which Paul proceeds to state.

That denying ungodliness and worldly lusts. "That by denying ourselves of these, or refusing to practise them, we should lead a holy life." The word ungodliness, here means all that would be included under the word impiety; that is, all failure in the performance of our proper duties towards God. "Ro 1:18". The phrase "worldly lusts," refers to all improper desires pertaining to this life—the desire of wealth, pleasure, honour, sensual indulgence. It refers to such passions as the men of this world are prone to, and would include all those things which cannot be indulged in with a proper reference to the world to come. The gross passions would be of course included, and all those more re- fined pleasures also which constitute the characteristic and peculiar enjoyments of those who do not live unto God.

We should live soberly. See the word soberly (swfronwv) explained "Tit 2:2", "Tit 2:4". It means that we should exercise a due restraint on our passions and propensities.

Righteously. Justly. This refers to the proper performance of our duties to our fellowmen; and it means that religion teaches us to perform those duties with fidelity, according to all our relations in life; to all our promises and contracts; to our fellow-citizens and neighbours; to the poor, and needy, and ignorant, and oppressed; and to all those who are providentially placed in our way who need our kind offices.

Justice to them would lead us to act as we would wish that they would towards us.

And godly. Piously; that is, in the faithful performance of our duties to God. We have here, then, an epitome of all that religion requires:

(1.) Our duty to ourselves—included in the word "soberly," and requiring a suitable control over our evil propensities and passions;

(2.) our duty to our fellow-men in all the relations we sustain in life; and

(3.) our duty to God—evinced in what will be properly regarded as a pious life. He that does these things, meets all the responsibilities of his condition and relations; and the Christian system, requiring the faithful performance of these duties, shows how admirably it is adapted to man.

In this present world. That is, as long as we shall continue in it. These are the duties which we owe in the present life.  (B)


Here is revealed a universal truth about Almighty God’s (YHWH’s) principles and laws for mankind to live by  “ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;” (Romans 1:18 AV); therefore it is imperative that all genuine Christians live a godly life paying heed to the laws and principles of the Father (YHWH) and not believing in God dishonoring dogma.    Such as the Father (YHWH) and the Son, Jesus (Jeshua or YHWH saves) are co-equal when the Bible clearly says: “ Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.” (John 14:28 AV) and  “ And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.” (1 Corinthians 15:28 AV). (I)

2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and {d} worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

(d) Lusts of the flesh, which belong to the present state of this life and world. 

2:13 {e} Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

(e) Christ is here most plainly called that mighty God, and his appearance and coming is called by the figure of speech metonymy, our hope.  (G)

#Tit 2:12

   Teaching us. We are taught in this system of grace that we must deny ourselves all sinful lusts, and live godly lives. (BJ)

VERSE 13:  Now, Let’s consider Verse 13  with a scriptural quote from three different well known translations of the Bible:

“ Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” (Titus 2:13 AV)

“13  Looking for the blessed hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.” (Titus 2:13 Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible, DRCB)

“13  Prepared to welcome the happy hope and forthshining of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Christ Jesus,” (Titus 2:13,  Rothrham)

Here Jesus is referred to as a great God, but not the Almighty God (YHWH) and no wonder when Jesus even said to humans:
“29  My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.
30  I and my Father are one.
31  Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32  Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33  The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34  Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35  If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36  Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?” (John 10:29-36 AV); a God being here used as someone higher than one’s self, but who were the human opposers the superior ones to?   Well let’s investigate the order of subordination starting with Almighty God (YHWH) as the supreme one “ But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.” (1 Corinthians 11:3, AV).   This is made even clearer by Albert Barnes in his “Barnes New Testament notes set, ALBERT BARNES. PHILADELPHIA, August 25th, 1832” when he states, “(3.) That the expectation of Christians was directed to the advent of the ascended Saviour, not to the appearing of God as such.”   In addition, he noted, that this scripture has led to much discussion, “. The doctrine there is, that God will be manifest in his Son; that the Divine approach to our world will be through him to judge the race; and that though he will be accompanied with the appropriate symbols of the Divinity, yet it will be the Son of God who will be visible. No one, accustomed to Paul’s views, can well doubt that when he used this language he had his eye throughout on the Son of God, and that he expected no other manifestation than what would be made through him. (3.) That the expectation of Christians was directed to the advent of the ascended Saviour, not to the appearing of God as such. This sense has been vindicated by the labours of Beza, Whitby, Bull, Matthaei, and Middleton, (on the Greek article,) and is the common interpretation of those who claim to be orthodox.”   Therefore, this scripture clearly shows that in heaven Jesus (Jeshua or JHWH saves) and his Father, Almighty God (YHWH) are two distinct entities with the Father being the superior one and the Son being the subordinate that will appear figuratively in the clouds at the end times.  None of the early Christians ever took this scripture to mean that Almighty God himself would appear, but only the Son, Jesus (Jeshua or YHWH saves) would appear.  He, Albert Barnes, went on to say, “(1.) that no plain reader of the New Testament, accustomed to the common language there, would have any doubt that the apostle referred here to the coming of the Lord Jesus.”   Once more making it clear which individual spirit being he was talking about.  So here we learn that in one sense the term a God can be applied to Jesus, but not in the sense of placing him on the same level or position of power with his Father (YHWH).  Since as he himself said  “ Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.” (John 5:19, AV) and that while existing in a spirit form the same as Almighty God (YHWH) “5  “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6  Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7  But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:5-11, AV), we clearly see that “God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name,” so he truly is second only to his Father (YHWH) in heaven where he is figuratively spoken as “ Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.” (1 Peter 3:22, AV).  (I)

Verse 13. Looking for. Expecting; waiting for. That is, in the faithful performance of our duties to ourselves, to our fellow-creatures, and to God, we are patiently to wait for the coming of our Lord.

(1.) We are to believe that he will return;

(2.) we are to be in a posture of expectation, not knowing when he will come; and

(3.) we are to be ready for him whenever he shall come. "Mt 24:42", seq. "1Th 5:4"; "Php 3:20".

That blessed hope. The fulfillment of that hope so full of blessedness to us.

The glorious appearing. "2Th 2:8". Compare #1Ti 6:14 2Ti 1:10 4:1,8.

Of the great God. There can be little doubt, if any, that by "the great God" here, the apostle referred to the Lord Jesus, for it is not a doctrine of the New Testament that God himself as such, or in contradistinction from his incarnate Son, will appear at the last day. It is said, indeed, that the Saviour will come "in the glory of his Father with his angels," (#Mt 16:27,) but that God as such will appear, is not taught in the Bible. The doctrine there is, that God will be manifest in his Son; that the Divine approach to our world will be through him to judge the race; and that though he will be accompanied with the appropriate symbols of the Divinity, yet it will be the Son of God who will be visible. No one, accustomed to Paul’s views, can well doubt that when he used this language he had his eye throughout on the Son of God, and that he expected no other manifestation than what would be made through him. (3.) That the expectation of Christians was directed to the advent of the ascended Saviour, not to the appearing of God as such. This sense has been vindicated by the labours of Beza, Whitby, Bull, Matthaei, and Middleton, (on the Greek article,) and is the common interpretation of those who claim to be orthodox. See Bloomfield, Rec. Syn., and Notes, in loc. He contends that the meaning is, "the glorious appearance of that GREAT BEING who is our GOD AND SAVIOUR." The arguments for this opinion are well summed up by Bloomfield. Without going into a critical examination of this passage, which would not be in accordance with the design of these Notes, it may be remarked in general,

(1.) that no plain reader of the New Testament, accustomed to the common language there, would have any doubt that the apostle referred here to the coming of the Lord Jesus.

(2.) That the "coming" of God, as such, is not spoken of in this manner in the New Testament.

(3.) That the expectation of Christians was directed to the advent of the ascended Saviour, not to the appearing of God as such.

(4.) That this is just such language as one would use who believed that the Lord Jesus is Divine, or that the name God might properly be applied to him.

(5.) That it would naturally and obviously convey the idea that he was Divine, to one who had no theory to defend.

(6.) That if the apostle did not mean this, he used such language as was fitted to lead men into error. And

(7.) that the fair construction of the Greek here, according to the application of the most rigid rules, abundantly sustains the interpretation which the plain reader of the New Testament would affix to it. The names above referred to are abundant proof that no violation is done to the rules of the Greek language by this interpretation, but rather that the fair construction of the original demands it. If this be so, then this furnishes an important proof of the divinity of Christ.

{d} "Looking" #2Pe 3:12
{e} "appearing" #Re 1:7 (B)

13. (#Php 3:20,21).

Looking for—with constant expectation (so the Greek) and with joy (#Ro 8:19). This will prove the antidote to worldly lusts, and the stimulus to "live in this present world" conformably to this expectation. The Greek is translated, "waiting for," in #Lu 2:25.

that—Greek, " the."

blessed—bringing blessedness (#Ro 4:7,8).

hope—that is, object of hope (#Ro 8:24 Ga 5:5 Col 1:5).

the glorious appearing—There is but one Greek article to both "hope" and "appearing," which marks their close connection (the hope being about to be realized only at the appearing of Christ). Translate, "The blessed hope and manifestation (compare Note,  see JFB on "Tit 2:11") of the glory." The Greek for "manifestation" is translated "brightness" in #2Th 2:8. As His "coming" (Greek, " parousia") expresses the fact; so "brightness, appearing," or "manifestation" (epiphaneia) expresses His personal visibility when He shall come.

the great God and our Saviour Jesus—There is but one Greek article to "God" and "Saviour," which shows that both are predicated of one and the same Being. "Of Him who is at once the great God and our Saviour." Also (2) "appearing" (epiphaneia) is never by Paul predicated of God the Father (#Joh 1:18 1Ti 6:16), or even of "His glory" (as ALFORD explains it): it is invariably applied to CHRIST’S coming, to which (at His first advent, compare #2Ti 1:10) the kindred verb "appeared" (epephanee), #Tit 2:11, refers (#1Ti 6:14 2Ti 4:1,8). Also (3) in the context (#Tit 2:14) there is no reference to the Father, but to Christ alone; and here there is no occasion for reference to the Father in the exigencies of the context. Also (4) the expression "great God," as applied to Christ, is in accordance with the context, which refers to the glory of His appearing;  just as "the true God" is predicated of Christ, #1Jo 5:20. The phrase occurs nowhere else in the New Testament, but often in the Old Testament. #De 7:21 10:17, predicated of Jehovah, who, as their manifested Lord, led the Israelites through the wilderness, doubtless the Second Person in the Trinity. Believers now look for the manifestation of His glory, inasmuch as they shall share in it. Even the Socinian explanation, making "the great God" to be the Father, " our Saviour," the Son,  places God and Christ on an equal relation to "the glory" of the future appearing: a fact incompatible with the notion that Christ is not divine; indeed it would be blasphemy so to couple any mere created being with God. (J)

#Tit 2:13

   Looking for. The attitude of Christians is that of waiting in expectation of the fulfillment of a glorious hope. Compare #1Co 1:7 Php 3:20  _ 1Th 1:9. (BJ)

COMBINATION OF [2]  THE SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY AND [3}   DISCOURSE ON MATTHEW 4:6   


[1]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [805B]

Whenever it is that they are saying, “Peace and security!” then sudden destruction is to be instantly on them, just like birth pains on a pregnant woman, and they will by no means escape.1 Thessalonians 5:3, [New World Translation Revised; NWTR]

The word of Almighty God (YHWH), the Bible likens the world’s destruction to the onset of labor – the mother’s pain is inevitable and comes suddenly.  The time leading up to the end is also like a pregnancy, for an expectant mother is aware of ever-increasing signs of the coming birth.  Her doctor might estimate the birth date, yet, even if the event should delay; she would still be sure that her baby will soon be born.  Similarly, any mistaken expectations about the end do not alter the unmistakable features identifying these as  “But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here.”, 2 Timothy 3:1, [NWTR].

However, if the sign that we are near the end is so obvious, you might ask, why do so many people fail to recognize it?  The Bible shows that when the end is near, many will belittle the evidence.  Rather than acknowledge the fundamental changes during the last days, they would scoff; “For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires 4 and saying: “Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep [in death], all things are continuing exactly as from creation’s beginning.”  2 Peter 3:3-4, NWTR].  In other words the sign of the last days is clear, but many will ignore per Matthew 24:38-39, “For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark; 39 and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be.” [NWTR]

[2]   DISCOURSE ON MATTHEW 4:6 

Matthew 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.  [Authorized King James, AV]

Now a comment on that scripture by a renown Bible commentator:

And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God--As this temptation starts with the same point as the first--our Lord's determination not to be disputed out of His Sonship--it seems to us clear that the one came directly after the other; and as the remaining temptation shows that the hope of carrying that point was abandoned, and all was staked upon a desperate venture, we think that remaining temptation is thus shown to be the last; as will appear still more when we come to it.
cast thyself down--"from hence" (Luke 4:9).
for it is written--(Psalms 91:11,12). "But what is this I see?" exclaims stately BISHOP HALL. "Satan himself with a Bible under his arm and a text in his mouth!" Doubtless the tempter, having felt the power of God's Word in the former temptation, was eager to try the effect of it from his own mouth (2 Corinthians 11:14).
He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands--rather, "on their hands."
they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone--The quotation is, precisely as it stands in the Hebrew and the Septuagint, save that after the first clause the words, "to keep thee in all thy ways," are here omitted. Not a few good expositors have thought that this omission was intentional, to conceal the fact that this would not have been one of "His ways," that is, of duty. But as our Lord's reply makes no allusion to this, but seizes on the great principle involved in the promise quoted, so when we look at the promise itself, it is plain that the sense of it is precisely the same whether the clause in question be inserted or not.. [Jameison-Faussett-Brown Commentary, 1871]

Now we noted in all the above Scripture the Devil said to Jesus Christ (Yeshua) that he was the Son of God; interesting since for if the Trinity was true, it would have read God the Son instead of the Son of God. However, the Devil clearly used the term "Son of God" clearly showing he knew there was no Trinity, but a Father (YHWH) and Son, Jesus (Yeshua) relationship.  In fact, the temptation of the Son, Jesus (Yeshua), clearly would have made no sense whatsoever if the son had just been a different manifestation of God (YHWH) as taught by Trinitarians.  Also, note, the writer of the commentary, the renown scholar Jameison-Faussett-Brown clearly stated, "As this temptation starts with the same point as the first--our Lord's determination not to be disputed out of His Sonship." Since it reads the same in every translation I know of except one "feminists" biased Bible, where it reads Daughter of God which I am sure none of you would agree with. Therefore, it is self evident that Jesus is God's (YHWH's) son and not God the Son as would be technically necessary for the trinity to be true.

[2]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [807B]

Instruct me, O Jehovah, about your way. I shall walk in your truth. Unify my heart to fear your name.  Psalmss 86:11, [New World Translation Revised; NWTR]

Let’s face it, If we are experiencing inner conflict on account of our imperfection, may love move us to pray as did the Psalmsist above.  Let us be determined to resist the Devil’s efforts to distance us from our loving heavenly Father and those he approves.  Work diligently to “Therefore, become imitators of God, as beloved children, 2 and go on walking in love, just as the Christ also loved YOU and delivered himself up for YOU as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling odor.” Ephesians 5:1-2, [NWTR]

[3]   DISCOURSE ON MATTHEW 14:33

Matthew 14:33 Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.  {Authorized King James, AV]

Matthew 14:33 But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son.  [The Darby Version, DV]

Here are the comments of some world renown Bible scholars:

They were growing in appreciation of the person and power of Christ from the attitude in Mark 8:27. They will soon be ready for the confession of Mark 16:16. Already they can say: "Truly God's Son thou art." The absence of the article here allows it to mean a Son of God as in Mark 27:54 (the centurion). But they probably mean "the Son of God" as Jesus was claiming to them to be.  [Robertson's Word Pictures of the New Testament]

Thou art the Son of God - They mean, the Messiah. [John Wesley's Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible". 1765]

They that were in the ship came and worshipped him. Not only did they approach him with an outward unforbidden gesture of worship, "but they avowed him, for the first time collectively, to be the Son of God."  [Johnson, Barton W. "Commentary on Matthew 14". "People's New Testament".. 1891].

Now as can clearly be seen from both the Scriptures above taken from two different Bibles each with a very different style of translation and from the Commentaries of three (3) renown Bible scholars of different ages and beliefs, Jesus (Yeshua) is clearly recognized as being the Son of God (YHWH) and not  his Father, Almighty God (YHWH).   Clearly this reorganization of Jesus (Yeshua) as the Son of God (Truly thou art God's Son.-Darby Version, DV) and not God the Son shows the Trinity is clearly false dogma.   It should be avoided like the plague by all true worshippers of Almighty God (YHWH) as it is the Devils trick to mislead people into dishonoring God (YHWH).instead of the Son of God.  You can hunt in vain all the known English, Spanish, Latin, German, etc. translations, yet they all clearly testify at Matthew 14:33 that Jesus Christ (Yeshua) is clearly the Son of God and NOT God the Son as would have to be the case for the doctrine of the Trinity to be so.

[2] SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [809B]

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.1 John 5:3,  [AUTHORIZED KING JAMES BIBLE; AV]

Almighty God (YHWH) is the only Person with absolute freedom.  Yet he never misuses it nor does he monopolize freedom by micromanaging his servants.  Instead, he has given them free will, which allows them to use initiative and satisfy all their proper desires.  For example, Almighty God (YHWH) gave Adam and Eve only one restrictive command – the prohibition against eating from “the tree of knowledge of good and bad.” (Genesis 2:17)  What an amazing degree of freedom they had in carrying out their Creator’s will!

[3]    Here is a Commentary on Bountiful Trees and Vegetables God (YHWH) has provided for mankind, specifically the Hoja santa, Piper auritum, is an aromatic herb with a heart-shaped, velvety leaf which grows in tropic Mesoamerica. The name hoja santa means "sacred leaf" in Spanish.[2] It is also known as yerba santa, [3] Mexican pepperleaf,[4] acuyo,[4] tlanepa,[4]anisillo,[4] root beer plant,[2] and sacred pepper.[1]

Description
The leaves can reach up to 30 centimeters (12 in) or more in size. The complex flavor of hoja santa is not so easily described; it has been compared to eucalyptus,[5][6] licorice,[2][7] sassafras,[3][8] anise,[4][9] nutmeg,[4] mint,[10][11] tarragon,[5] and black pepper.[4] The flavor is stronger in the young stems and veins.

It is native to the Americas, from northern South America to Mexico, and is also cultivated in southeast Florida.

Usage
It is often used in Mexican cuisine for tamales, the fish or meat wrapped in fragrant leaves for cooking, and as an essential ingredient in mole verde, the green sauce originated in the Oaxaca region of Mexico.[3] It is also chopped to flavor soups, such as pozole, and eggs.[12] In Central Mexico, it is used to flavor chocolate drinks.[4] In southeastern Mexico, a green liquor called Verdín is made from hoja santa.[13] It is also used for tea. American cheesemaker Paula Lambert created "Hoja santa cheese", goat cheese wrapped with the hoja santa leaves and impregnated with its flavor.[8][10] While typically used fresh, it is also used in dried form, although drying removes much of the flavor and makes the leaf too brittle to be used as a wrapper.[14]

The essential oils within the leaf are rich in safrole, a substance also found in sassafras, which has been shown to be carcinogenic in animals. In 1960, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration banned sassafras bark along with sassafras oil and safrole as flavoring agents because of their carcinogenic properties[12] and the Council of Europe imposed the same ban in 1974,[15] although toxicological studies show that humans do not process safrole into its carcinogenic metabolite.[16]

[2]       SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY [811B]

This, therefore, I say and bear witness to in [the] Lord, that YOU no longer go on walking just as the nations also walk in the unprofitableness of their minds, 18 while they are in darkness mentally, and alienated from the life that belongs to God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the insensibility of their hearts. 19 Having come to be past all moral sense, they gave themselves over to loose conduct to work uncleanness of every sort with greediness. 20 But YOU did not learn the Christ to be so, 21 provided, indeed, that YOU heard him and were taught by means of him, just as truth is in Jesus,  Ephesians 4:17-21, [New World Translation Revised; NWTR].

It is important that we realize that Satan the Devil, the one who first disrupted universal peace, will strongly oppose our efforts to do Almighty God’s (YHWH) will. No doubt Satan’s purposes are served as the divorce rate soars, marriage is dispensed with in favor of living together, and marriages between homosexuals are tolerated.  We do not pattern our behavior or attitudes after trends observed in modern society; Christ is our model as brought out in the scripture above.  Thus, we are admonished to at Ephesians 6:10-13, “Finally, go on acquiring power in [the] Lord and in the mightiness of his strength. 11 Put on the complete suit of armor from God that YOU may be able to stand firm against the machinations of the Devil; 12 because we have a wrestling, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places. 13 On this account take up the complete suit of armor from God, that YOU may be able to resist in the wicked day and, after YOU have done all things thoroughly, to stand firm.” [NWTR]

[3]   DISCOURSE ON MATTHEW 27:43

Matthew 27:43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God. [Authorized King James Bible - [AV]

The renown Apostles Matthew and Paul clearly show that Jesus (Yeshua) was doing the will of his Father (YHWH) and that every knee should bow to the Father (YHWH) of Jesus (Yeshua).  This clearly delineates why we should trust in the Father (YHWH) of Jesus (Yeshua).  Now let's look at two of the writings of these renown Apostles showing that Jesus (Yeshua) did the will of his Father (YHWH):

“For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”  [Matthew 12:50 -[AV] by the renown Apostle Matthew.

“According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:  In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.  Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.  For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,”  [Ephesians 3:11-14 - AV] by the renown Apostle Paul.

As we have seen from these scriptures, Jesus is God's (YHWH's) Son, and he is an obedient Son always doing the will of his Father (YHWH).  He, Jesus (Yeshua) made it clear that whosoever "shall do the will of my Father [YHWH]" in Heaven is part of his 'family' and this was in response to some in the time he was on earth pointing out that some of his literal family on earth was present.  He did this to make the important point that all followers of his should be doing the will of his Father (YHWH) in Heaven just as he, Jesus (Yeshua) was doing the will of his Father (YHWH).  He made this even clearer as shown by the renown Apostle Paul in his writing in Ephesians when he wrote, "For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" to show the reverence that all followers of Jesus (Yeshua) should show to Jesus' Father (YHWH).  This clearly delineated two important facts, first, that Jesus (Yeshua) was doing not his own will, but the will of his Father (YHWH); but second, they were two separate and distinct beings and not a duality or trinity of any kind.  Of course this fact was made quite clear in Matthew 27:43 since it reads, "Son of God," and not God the Son as would be required for a duality or trinity doctrine to be true.  Therefore, it is clear that the Trinity is false dogma just the same as the Cather's belief in a Duality false doctrine.
