Lord, We Have A Problem

I have been struggling with an issue for little while now within the Messianic movement. I praise God for showing not only myself His word and His ways but my family and so many others. The past 4 years have been mindblowng to me as I see scripture in a way that I have never seen before. It has been nothing short of miraculous.

Now to the problem that I am having. Lately, I have been running across more and more believers who are reminding me more and more of the Pharisees who believed on Yeshua but still adhered to traditions of men. Matthew 24:24 says "For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch insomuch that if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect:"

Now, there have been people around the world who claim to be the Messiah come in the flesh and have many followers which is unfortunate. There are also many signs and wonders going about and many of the brothers and sisters who truly love the Lord are being led astray. And now for the false prophets:

The job of the prophet is to lead God's people back to His Torah. And there are many who are doing just that. When I first came into this truth, I felt like a wide eyed child looking at the world in a brand new light. I found various groups across the internet who were like myself and we loved and shared all the information concerning scripture that we could find. This past year, however, a lot of people who have started out in love are now becoming haughty and arrogant. If you are not a part of their inner circle or if you disagree with something that is said, you are booted out of the camp.

One group that I had joined on the internet has had a change in thinking. It seems now that it is no longer about studying the scriptures but it is increasingly becoming about the way you keep them. No longer are all welcome. The love we felt in the beginning is all but gone. Now we're caught up in saying the sacred names correctly and did we keep the Passover like it was done in the bible. It is becoming a disturbing trend.

I would ask that all of us who believe in Yeshua Messiah and keeping His Torah check our selves, meaning our motives and attitudes. Let us continue to compel people to come to the gospel truth. I know that when there is a large movement of the Spirit, the enemy will always find a way to pervert it and right now, he is doing the job by decieving the brethern. Let's stop it right now. I urge all of my brothers and sisters in the Lord to come back to our first love and stop the mess or we will continue to have the same problems.

Shalom in Messiah Yeshua
