Dear Brothers and Sisters in God’s Name,
As I was reading my old notes about the Bible revelations of our late Teacher, Erano M. Evangelista, I found one of the earliest revelations he received from God about the lies of the apostles about Jesus. Let us begin our reading in Acts 4:10-12 "Then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.11 Jesus is “‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ 12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:10-12 (NIV) Before we delve into what the Apostles have written about Jesus, let us first understand what a “cornerstone” is. In ancient architecture, the cornerstone was the most crucial stone placed at the corner of the structure. Using that analogy, it means that when it comes to God’s teachings, the apostles claim Jesus was the cornerstone or the significant figure. To make their listeners understand Jesus’ importance, the Apostles even preached that it is in Jesus’ name that all humankind should call upon to attain salvation. Were the claims of apostles in the New Testament about Jesus as the symbolic “cornerstone” valid? Teacher Evangelista then shared with us who the real 'cornerstone' is in the Bible. Let us start our reading from Psalm 118:21-22 I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation. Psalm 118:21 (NIV) “I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation”—Here, the writer of Psalms sings about God as his salvation. To continue: The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; 23 the LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. Psalms 118:22–23 (NIV) ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’ - We may witness that the true cornerstone is God and not Jesus! Let us continue our reading: The LORD has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. LORD, save us! LORD, grant us success! Psalm 118:24-25 (NIV) We can read how the Psalmist writes about calling on God for salvation and not on Jesus. To make it even more precise, in whose name should we call upon to be saved? The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:9-10 (NIV) “Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.”---Salvation is not attained by calling on Jesus’ name but upon calling on God’s Name. Let us apply our logic and intellect: how can we be saved by calling upon Jesus when before he died on the cross, he even cried out that God forsook him? Now that Teacher Evangelista completed the revelation concerning Jesus and the Name of God on the website www.thename.ph, we can now also understand further what was written in Psalm 118: 22-23. The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. Psalms 118:22-23 (NIV) "The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone" - To understand more about how God is the real cornerstone, we should know who were the 'builders' mentioned in this Psalm. Let us read God's word in 2nd Samuel 7:12-14. Let us start with 2nd Samuel 7 verse 12: “When your days are over and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom." 2nd Samuel 7:12 (NIV) God speaks to David, his (David’s) offspring, of his flesh and blood. What would the work of the descendant be? “He is the one who will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever...” 2nd Samuel 7:13 (NIV) The offspring of David will have a particular task from God, which is to build a house for His Name. When he can accomplish it, God will permanently establish the throne of his (offspring of David) kingdom over Israel. What was the other reward from God? “I will be his father, and he will be my son. WHEN HE DOES WRONG, I WILL PUNISH HIM WITH A ROD WIELDED BY MEN, WITH FLOGGINGS INFLICTED BY HUMAN HANDS – 2nd Samuel 7:14 (NIV) We read about an offspring of David (David’s flesh and blood), whom God shall send to build a house in His Name. When David's offspring successfully accomplishes his task, his throne as king will be established over Israel forever. Although he is just a descendant of David, God will reward him with the title “Son of God.” Why is God’s Name unknown to the Israelites? Let us read the explanation that God revealed to Teacher Evangelista in the scriptures once again: God revealed to Teacher Evangelista the reason why a house needed to be built for His (God’s) Name: Then Jeremiah said to all the people, including the women, “Hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah in Egypt. This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: You and your wives have shown by your actions what you promised when you said; ‘We will certainly carry out the vows we made to burn incense and pour out drink offerings to the Queen of Heaven.’ “Go ahead then, do what you promised! Keep your vows! Jeremiah 44:24-25 (NIV) During their sojourn in Egypt, they worshipped another deity called the “queen of heaven.” This is a significant transgression against the God of Israel. God did not instruct them to make a graven image of another god and worship it. What was God’s judgment when they continued to worship the said goddess? But hear the word of the LORD, all Jews living in Egypt: ‘I swear by my great name,’says the LORD, ‘that no one from Judah living anywhere in Egypt will ever again invoke my name or swear, “As surely as the Sovereign LORD lives.” Jeremiah 44:26 (NIV) “no one from Judah living anywhere in Egypt will ever again invoke my name or swear” – Since then, God had cursed the Jewish people so they may never speak His Name. “As surely as the Sovereign LORD lives.”- Since God cursed them that they may not invoke His Name, they will no longer have the proper knowledge of God’s Name. When God gives a curse, it will surely happen! Let us read Isaiah 14:24. “The LORD has sworn, "Surely, as I have planned, so it will be, and as I have purposed, so it will stand.” Isaiah 14:24 (NIV) It shall stand. We may now realize that the name YHWH that the Jews ascribe to God (and its variations devised by the early scholars) is NOT and NEVER the Name of God because God took away from them the knowledge of His Name as punishment for their false worship! The Jews do not know the story because they were cursed by God. Their non-knowledge is proof of how true God’s oath to Himself is. The Jews may not invoke His Name. Question: How do we know that even though they were still in their sojourn in Egypt, the people of Israel angered God with their idol worship? “‘But they rebelled against me and would not listen to me; they did not get rid of the vile images they had set their eyes on, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. So I said, I would pour out my wrath on them and spend my anger against them in Egypt. But for the sake of my name, I brought them out of Egypt. I did it to keep my name from being profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they lived and in whose sight I had revealed myself to the Israelites. Ezekiel 20:8-9 (NIV) God confirms through His prophet Ezekiel that even during the time that the people of Israel were still in Egypt they were already worshiping false gods and goddesses. This includes the worship of the queen of heaven (Jeremiah 44:24-26). This is why God cursed them that they (Jews) may never mention His Name. “‘I did it to keep my name from being profaned in the eyes of the nations among whom they lived’” – God showed us how He kept His Name from being profaned by the idolatry of His people by putting a curse that they may not invoke His Name. For the people of Israel to be saved from their sins, they should know the Name of God once again. Is it true that when the people of Israel know the Name of God and call on His Name, will God forgive them? All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant. For the sake of your name, Lord, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. Psalm 25:10-11 NIV There was a need to build a house with the Name of God because the Name of God might be shown to them by the chosen descendant of David without breaking God’s word! We can understand how the task of building a house with the Name of God is so vital that the people of Israel may know the Name of God of Israel. With God's word in 2 Samuel 7:12-14, we can now understand who the builders are as mentioned in Psalm 118:22-23. They pertain to the ones whom God had previously chosen to build a house for His Name! Why 'builders'? Because the first one from the line of David who God chose was Solomon. (1 Chr 22:9-13) He was able to build a house for the Name of God, but he failed to make his fellow Israelites realize the name of God when he built temples for the false gods of his wives. After Solomon, the next one to be chosen (from the line of David) was Jesus (Luke 1:31-32). But unlike Solomon, what Jesus did was, instead of building a house for God's name, he preached that a church is to be built for his (Jesus) name (Matt.16:18), thus making himself a god. Solomon and Jesus failed to complete their mission to build a house for the Name of God. They denied the Jews the proper knowledge of God's Name. They were the 'builders' mentioned in Psalm 118:22-23 who rejected God. Let us now read again Psalm 118:22 this time up to verse 29 The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. Psalm 118:22-23 God has now made Himself known as the true 'Cornerstone.' The LORD has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. LORD, save us! LORD, grant us success! Psalm 118:24-25 NIV "The LORD has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad."-- We witness how God fulfilled His word before our eyes. How were we able to know this truth about the Name of God? Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless you. Psalm 118:26 NIV "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD"- we now know the true Name of God. We learned it from the messenger God promised a long time ago, the Prophet like Moses in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, whom He will send to speak in His Name, which was fulfilled in the person of our late Teacher Erano M. Evangelista! People of the world may now know the true name of God in the Bible thru the website www.thename.ph Question: Why is it written as "Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the LORD?" (Psalm 118:26) Who is the man described in this verse? Answer: It speaks of the prophet like Moses (Deut.18:18-19), whom God shall send to reveal His name. He is a foreigner who will come from a foreign land. “As for the foreigner who does not belong to your people Israel but has come from a distant land because of your name - 1 Kings 8:41 (NIV) This is the prophet like Moses who will come and speak about the great Name of God through the scriptures; he is not from the people of Israel, and will come from a far country. He had already come in the Name of the Lord!' To continue: for men will hear of your great name and your mighty hand and your outstretched arm - when he comes and prays toward this temple, then hear from heaven, your dwelling place, and do whatever the foreigner asks of you, so that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you, as do your own people Israel, and may know that this house I have built bears your name. 1 Kings 8:42-43 (NIV) “for men will hear of your great name” – God’s "prophet like Moses" Teacher Eraño Martin Evangelista, is not a Jew but a foreigner, a Filipino. He informed the whole world of God’s proper name through the website previously mentioned. If the prophet "like Moses," whom God had sent to speak in His Name comes from an Island country in the East, it follows that God's Name will be proclaimed in the same country. In what distant land will the prophet like Moses, who will proclaim the Name of God, come from? They raise their voices, they shout for joy; from the west they acclaim the LORD's majesty. Therefore in the east give glory to the LORD; exalt the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea. Isaiah 24:14-15 (NIV) It is written that the real true Name of God will be glorified in the East, in the Islands of the sea. This is because the man whom God chose as His prophet like Moses to reveal His Name comes from the island country in the far East- The Philippines. Now that we know the Name of God thru the Bible revelations of the real Prophet like Moses, Teacher Evangelista, who is also the 'Foreigner' mentioned in 1 Kings 8:41-43, what can we realize now? The LORD is God, and he has made his light shine on us. With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession up to the horns of the altar. You are my God, and I will praise you; you are my God, and I will exalt you. 29 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever. Psalm 118:27-29 NIV Through the Bible revelations of our late Teacher Evangelista in thename.ph, we can now say that there is a God, An eternal living God, who is faithful to His word in the Bible. People of the world may now attain God's salvation because they can now call upon His mighty Name and follow His true laws. In one of his Saturday Bible sessions, our late Teacher Eraño M. Evangelista once shared how the Bible speaks about a coming conflict between nations in the Pacific region that would eventually include the Philippines.
He also showed God's instruction in the Scriptures on what our world leaders and people of all nations should do to prevent it from resulting in a devastating global war. Let us read Ezekiel 39:6-8 "I will send fire on Magog and on those who live in safety in the coastlands, and they will know that I am the LORD." Ezekiel 39:6 (NIV) To understand what "Magog" means. Let us read Revelation 20:8 "and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth - Gog and Magog - and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore." Revelation 20:8 NIV According to the late Teacher Evangelista, "Magog" - pertains to all the world nations. When God said, "I will send fire on Magog" (in Ezekiel 39:6), there would be great trouble worldwide. We are witnessing how leaders of nations and peace organizations such as the United Nations cannot put an end to the ever-escalating armed conflicts. Reading again Ezekiel 39, verse 6: "I will send fire on Magog and on those who live in safety in the coastlands, and they will know that I am the LORD." Ezekiel 39:6 (NIV) "in the coastlands"–The armed conflicts' impact will affect all nations and lead to the possibility of an all-out war here in the Pacific. "they will know that I am the LORD."– These events happen not because the world will end. It is a sign that God is now making known His actual Name. To continue in verse 7: 'I will make known my holy Name among my people Israel. I will no longer let my holy Name be profaned, and the nations will know that I the LORD am the Holy One in Israel. Ezekiel 39:7 (NIV) As we can read: "I will make known my holy name among my people Israel." - The passage means that from the coastlands or the Philippines (an Island nation), God made Known His great Name to the people of the world through His prophet like Moses, the late Teacher Eraño M. Evangelista via the website thename.ph. "I will no longer let my holy name be profaned" - God is doing all these because His Name is being profaned. The passage also reads: "the nations will know that I the LORD am the Holy One in Israel."- The passage means that when the whole world gives their full attention to learning the Bible revelations of the late Teacher Evangelista about the Name of God on thename.ph website (and on this website thetruenameofgod.com), people will then understand why throughout history, God had protected the Jewish people against those who wanted to eradicate them. However, with the great revelation of the Name of God on the said website, our Jewish brethren would have to acknowledge God's proper Name for God to save them. To continue our reading in Ezekiel 39:8 It is coming! It will surely take place, declares the Sovereign LORD. This is the day I have spoken of. ' Ezekiel 39:8 (NIV) As the passage reads: "It is coming! It will surely take place" - Though this Bible revelation was given and shared by the late Teacher Evangelista many years ago through the thename.ph website, this event will surely come to pass. What will happen next when all have acknowledged the Name of GOD? Let us continue in Ezekiel 39:9 'Then those who live in the towns of Israel will go out and use the weapons for fuel and burn them up - the small and large shields, the bows and arrows, the war clubs and spears. For seven years they will use them for fuel." Ezekiel 39:9 (NIV) "Then those who live in the towns of Israel"- Does not pertain to the people in the Middle East. These speak about the nations who will call and acknowledge God's true Name, whom He will consider His new people. "use the weapons for fuel and burn them up... For seven years they will use them for fuel" - The passage speaks about PEACE! When all people acknowledge God's true Name. The weapons of war will finally be burned and used for fuel for "seven years" - meaning, for many years - not only for seven years. The "nuclear warheads" will be used for peaceful purposes as fuel for the nuclear power plants and will no longer be used for war. To continue our reading in Ezekiel 39:10 They will not need to gather wood from the fields or cut it from the forests, because they will use the weapons for fuel. And they will plunder those who plundered them and loot those who looted them, declares the Sovereign LORD. Ezekiel 39:10 (NIV) The passage reads: "They will not need to gather wood from the fields or cut it from the forests" - because we will have other resources for fuel that will come from the weapons of war. We will not need much oil and cut plenty of trees. We will conserve our natural resources for the next generations to enjoy. And: "And they will plunder those who plundered them and loot those who looted them." The passage speaks about how the Bible revelations of the late Teacher Evangelista about the true Name of God on the said websites will expose those who have deceived humankind with their teachings about God. They had made humanity believe they were God's spokespersons and that God tasked them to receive money offerings, but they were not. People will discover how such false doctrines were the real cause of why they are living under God's curse instead of living under God's blessing here on this planet! Why will knowing God's actual Name prevent these conflicts and disasters from worsening and lead to world peace? Let us read Joel 2:31-32 "The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD." Joel 2:31 (NIV) We witness through the internet how violence and killings happen everywhere. The threat of a deadly world war creates unrest for the people throughout the globe. These events are signs of “the coming great and dreadful day of the LORD.” Question: How can we be saved when the great and terrible day of the LORD comes? Let us read Joel 2:32 And everyone who calls on the Name of the LORD will be saved; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance, as the LORD has said, even among the survivors whom the LORD calls. Joel 2:32 (NIV) What is this great and dreadful day of the LORD? Should we be excited about its coming? Woe to you who long for the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? That day will be darkness, not light. Amos 5:18 (NIV) Devout Christians, no matter what sect they belong to, wait for this day. They say that it will be the beginning of the return of Jesus. Contrary to their expectations, it will be a day of uncertainty. To understand further, let us continue our reading in Amos 5:19 It will be as though a man fled from a lion only to meet a bear, as though he entered his house and rested his hand on the wall only to have a snake bite him. Amos 5:19 (NIV) It will be a day of peril, not a day of gladness that every Christian expects. It will be a day of danger. Now, how can people be saved if such a day is coming? Let us now read Joel 2:32 And everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance, as the LORD has said, among the survivors whom the LORD calls. Joel 2:32 (NIV) When the “great and dreadful day of the LORD” comes, the people who call on God's true Name will be saved! Here is understanding: The events we are witnessing now signify that the terrible “day” will occur because we do not call on the true Name of the living God! Hence, the key or solution to all the problems plaguing our world today lies in turning to the true Name of God. When we collectively revere God's Holy Name, divisions will cease, religious conflicts will become a thing of the past, and nations will shift their focus from developing war technologies to creating technologies that heal our planet. We will then become one world, one people, under the one true God. Is it true that we will become one people under God when we call on His True Name? Let us read in Zechariah 13:9 This third I will put into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my Name and I will answer them; I will say, 'They are my people,' and they will say, 'The Lord is our God.'" Zechariah 13:9 (NIV) The people who call on the Name of God will be called the People of God. Indeed, we become one nation when we call on God's true Name. No more division. Suppose the present-day Jews will not acknowledge the Name of God that Teacher Evangelista had revealed in the Bible and continue to say that the God of their fathers will always be with them. What does God say about this? Let us read in: This is what the Sovereign LORD showed me: a basket of ripe fruit. "What do you see, Amos?" he asked. "A basket of ripe fruit," I answered. Then the LORD said to me, "The time is ripe for my people Israel; I will spare them no longer. Amos 8:1-2 (NIV) “I will spare them no longer” – Such is God's reminder to them. What is God's promise to those who will acknowledge His true Name? "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation." Psalm 91:14-16 (NIV) "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name"-- With such a great promise from God, let us all know His true Name in the Bible in www.thename.ph and on this website www.thetruenameofgod.com We can now understand why the current escalating tensions in the Pacific between the U.S., China, and Taiwan that would eventually include the Philippines were mentioned in the Bible. These events are signs. God wants the entire world to know that the Bible revelations of the late Teacher Evangelista about His Holy Name on the website www.thename.ph, is what everyone should heed to attain true world peace and prevent a catastrophic world war.

What writing of the prophet of God did the apostles and the religions use to desperately prove the lie that Jesus was destined by God to die for our sins? But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. Isaiah 53:5 NIV The apostles and the religions used this passage in Isaiah 53 to make the people of the world believe that this was a prophecy which Jesus fulfilled as he suffered and supposedly died for all men. Let us read what God had revealed to His prophet like Moses, Maestro Evangelista and had commanded him to show us who the prophet Isaiah wrote about in Isaiah 53: Let the whole world know now that Jesus is not the one pertained in Isaiah 53, it is not even a prophecy in the first place as it is a recollection of what happened before. Let us read carefully: Who has believed our message and to WHOM has the arm of the Lord BEEN REVEALED? Isaiah 53:1 (NIV) Let us use our understanding! What was asked about is "Who has believed our message? AND “TO WHOM HAS THE ARM OF THE LORD BEEN REVEALED?" It means that this event has happened before and it had been reported to their people. It was never a prophecy! "Who has believed our message?" - This has been reported to their people before. It happened before Isaiah's time. "to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?" - This is not a prophecy. It is only a recollection of a past event in the history of the people of Israel, about a man to whom God has revealed His Arm or mighty power. Jesus was not even born when this was written. Let us find out to whom was the arm of the Lord revealed? But Moses sought the favor of the Lord his God. “Lord,” he said, “why should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand? Exodus 32:11 NIV We can read that God had revealed His arm of power to Moses during the time of the Exodus. If Isaiah was pertaining to Moses in this chapter (Isaiah53), we must also read that Isaiah himself said that God revealed his arm of power to Moses. Then his people recalled the days of old, the days of Moses and his people -where is he who brought them through the sea, with the shepherd of his flock? Where is he who set his Holy Spirit among them, who sent his glorious arm of power to be at Moses’ right hand, who divided the waters before them, to gain for himself everlasting renown, Isaiah 63:11-12 NIV As we can clearly read, God showed His mighty arm of power to Moses which means that the man in Isaiah 53, that Isaiah was speaking about was none other than Moses because it is to Moses, that God had shown His mighty Arm! Now you may say- isn’t it written that “But he was pierced for our transgressions,” in Isaiah 53: 5? Answer: the said verse does not speak of a literal crucifixion- read the verse before it: Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we CONSIDERED him stricken by God, smitten by him and afflicted. Isaiah 53:4 NIV “yet we CONSIDERED him stricken by God,” - (caps ours) considered only, but not physically stricken. In 2 Samuel 7:14,God Himself said that the son of David (Jesus) will be really physically stricken, flogged, and crucified (killed) or punished by men. How do we know that it is Moses that it is being pertained to in this writing in Isaiah 53? Let us read the final verse in Isaiah 53: Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS, For he bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors. Isaiah 53:12 NIV “was NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS,” -This is what happened to Moses, although he did not speak against the rebellious Israelites. He too was numbered with the transgressors among the Israelites who were not allowed by God to enter the Promised Land, when he disobeyed God’s command. Jesus was not considered a transgressor. Is it true that Moses interceded or asked God to pardon the transgressions of His fellow Israelites? This is how the prophet Moses interceded in behalf of the Israelites with God. The next day Moses said to the people, "You have committed a great sin. But now I will go up to the LORD; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin." So Moses went back to the LORD and said, "Oh, what a great sin these people have committed! They have made themselves gods of gold. But now, please forgive their sin - but if not, then blot me out of the book you have written." Exodus 32:30-32 (NIV) Moses tried to atone for the sins of the people. The request of Moses was great, that he even offered his own life and his being a prophet of God to atone for the sins of his people. What did God say to him? The LORD replied to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me I will blot out of my book. Now go, lead the people to the place I spoke of and my angel will go before you. However, when the time comes for me to punish, I will punish them for their sin." Exodus 32:33-34 (NIV) God did not let Moses atone for the sins of his people. Whoever sins will answer God for it, and there will be a time for judgment. God said that He will send an "angel" when the time is near. Why did God not allow Moses to die for the sins of the people Israel? Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin. Deuteronomy 24:16 (NIV) "each is to die for his own sin" - each man will answer for his own sin; no one is to be punished for another's sin. This is why God did not allow Moses to die for the sins of others because of this law. If Moses was not allowed by God to atone for the sins of his people with his own life, how much more is it with Jesus? It is very clear that it is not Jesus who is pertained to in Isaiah 53, it was never a prophecy but a recollection of what Moses had done. For the religions to indoctrinate us that God supposedly allowed a “sinless” Jesus to die for us is to make God a liar. Religions made it appear that God broke His own law in Deuteronomy 24:16 and even made HIM an unrighteous God because He allowed a so-called sinless man to be humiliated and killed like a "beast" for the sins of others. The religions made us worship Jesus who (based on God’s prophecy in 2 Samuel 7:12-14) was punished by God for his own wrongdoing and not for our sins as the apostles claim.

Sharing this excerpt from the article entitled "'UNFAITHFULNESS TO GOD’S SPECIAL DECREE CAUSED RELIGIOUS DIVISIONS" from the website thename.ph:
What does the Biblical "Garden of Eden" symbolize? How do we know that God’s blessing in the Garden of Eden was not meant only in the Middle East but for the whole world? Remember that the one who deceived Adam and Eve was Satan. If Satan‘s (or the Serpent, re:Rev. 12:9)) victory was only meant to deceive the couple from enjoying God’s blessing in the Garden of Eden, his reward would have solely been the Garden of Eden. If the whole world was handed to Satan, it signifies that God’s creation of a Garden in Eden was only a small-scale model for a peaceful and prosperous world. When Satan successfully deceived the couple, the promise of a blessed life for the whole world did not materialize. Let us read in: "The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, "I will give you all their authority and splendor, for it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to." Luke 4:5-6 (NIV) "I will give you all their authority and splendor, for it has been given to me” - Satan clearly said that the whole world was handed over to him when he deceived Adam and Eve. Therefore, the ‘Garden of Eden’ made by God was not just meant to be in a single place. It represents the blessed life He purposed for all mankind to have on Earth. Question: Is there a chance that our whole world will become like one great garden of Eden once again? Let us read Ezekiel 36:35-36 They will say, "This land that was laid waste has become like the Garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited." Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the LORD have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the LORD have spoken and I will do it.' Ezekiel 36:35-36 NIV “They will say, "This land that was laid waste has become like the Garden of Eden“ – It is true, God is giving us a chance so that our present world will be a one great Garden of Eden. How will it happen? See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse - the blessing if you obey the commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today; the curse if you disobey the commands of the LORD your God and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known. Deuteronomy 11:26-28 (NIV) “the blessing if you obey the commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today; the curse if you disobey the commands of the LORD your God”- God makes people suffer His curse or enjoy His blessing when they disobey or follow His Commandments. Thus, the reason humanity suffered a lot throughout history to date was not because of God’s “testing” mankind’s faith. It is the reality of being under God’s curse for following false gods taught by these religions. From this decree, we can understand that God gave us free will. He does not control the way anyone wants to live one’s life. Just like Adam who was given by God a choice when God presented His law not to eat the forbidden fruit lest he die (Genesis 2:16-17). We too were given a decree by God, if we follow God’s commands - blessings, and if we would not follow and go after other gods whom we have not known –we will live under His curse. The choice is ours. Therefore, in order for us to live under God's blessing and have our world become a great garden of Eden, we should all unite in following the true commandments of God and call on His true Name.

HOW TODAY'S CLIMATE CRISIS HAVE NOT HAPPENED HAD WE OBEYED GOD'S TRUE DECREE IN THE BIBLE!26/4/2022
By : E.L. Victorino C. Geonanga
Did you know that this Climate change crisis we're facing right now should not have happened if we've learned and followed God's decree in the Bible long ago? Unknown to many, God has a law in the Bible about preserving and taking care of our natural resources. The late Teacher Erano M. Evangelista had shared this knowledge in his Bible revelations on the website www.thename.ph. To understand this better, let us read God’s law in Leviticus 25, verses 1 to 7. As written in: "The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai, "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the Lord. For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops. But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of Sabbath rest, a Sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards. Do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the grapes of your untended vines. The land is to have a year of rest. Whatever the land yields during the Sabbath year will be food for you - for yourself, your male and female servants, and the hired worker and temporary resident who live among you, as well as for your livestock and the wild animals in your land. Whatever the land produces may be eaten." Leviticus 25, verses 1 to 7. (NIV) As the passage reads: "The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai,"- God spoke about this decree to Moses: To reread the passage: "For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops. But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of Sabbath rest, a Sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards." We can read that just as God commanded man not to work but only rest on the seventh day; He also commanded man not to gather crops on the seventh year so that the land could rest and replenish itself. Here God implies that just as a man can recharge his body by resting, so does the land, which means we should not abuse our environment! We can understand that the observation of God's Sabbath has a significant impact on ourselves and the whole planet. Giving a decree about a Sabbath for the land means that God did not fail to remind us how to take care of our environment. Look at what happened to our world when we did not observe God's decree about the Sabbath of the land. We abused its resources and did not give it rest. The abuse made to the environment had resulted in what we now experience as "global warming." Therefore, if we are experiencing deadly storms, tsunamis, earthquakes, and many other weather disturbances that take so many lives and destroy numerous homes and livelihoods of families worldwide, we could only blame ourselves and not God. Now that we know God’s decree about the seventh-year Sabbath rest for the land, we should let our world leaders and concerned environmental organizations discuss how this information can help save our future from this worsening climate change crisis. You might ask, how come we did not know of this vital decree before? Answer: These so-called religions and priests taught humankind their made-up teachings about God. They did not teach the truth about Jesus and God’s actual name in the Bible. The false information they preached about God and His laws led us to live under God’s curse.

This text is derived from notes taken during a Bible study session led by the late Teacher Erano Evangelista, associated with the "The Name of God" initiative at thename.ph. During one of these sessions, Teacher Evangelista brought our attention to an astonishing event recorded in the Bible, coinciding with the day of Jesus' crucifixion—an event that is seldom addressed or discussed by mainstream Churches. What is this event? Consider the passage from Matthew 27:50-53: "And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus' resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people." Matthew 27:50-53 NIV This passage vividly describes a moment when "the earth shook, the rocks split, and the tombs broke open," leading to many deceased holy individuals being resurrected. This profound and eerie occurrence transpired at the moment of Jesus' death. Why does this significant event not receive more attention in the Church's propagated Holy Week narratives? Moreover, why is there no historical record of such a world-altering event? It is indeed peculiar that this event, where numerous deceased individuals returned to life and were seen by many, does not feature in historical accounts of that era. Equally puzzling is the absence of any reference to this event in the epistles of the apostles or in the Acts of the Apostles, where the focus is solely on Jesus' resurrection as a singular event. Teacher Evangelista offers a straightforward explanation: Jesus did not resurrect from the dead. He contends that the apostles made up the story of Jesus' resurrection in order to deceive people and hide the real causes of God's abandoning Jesus to a cruel fate. Some Christian apologists and preachers might argue that the apostles' willingness to face martyrdom for their faith in Jesus lends credibility to their accounts. However, Teacher Evangelista challenges this notion by comparing it to the conviction of suicide bombers and certain Asian monks who self-immolate for their beliefs, suggesting that martyrdom alone is not a reliable indicator of the truthfulness of one's faith.

In the video shared above and in one of the articles in www.thename.ph entitled THE REAL JESUS THAT GOD WANTS THE WHOLE WORLD TO KNOW we may learn how Jesus willfully violated God's Sabbath law and encouraged his followers not to follow the said law.
As a result of following Jesus' teachings about the Sabbath, humankind suffered because they can no longer enjoy God's blessing of rest. Aside from man, our planet also suffered because people forgot God's law about the Sabbath of the land (Leviticus 25:1 to 7) where people are commanded to let the land rest and not do farming for a year so that the land can recharge or rejuvenate itself. Had humankind followed such law, we would have understood the value of taking care of our environment and not abuse our natural resources. We would not be experiencing this destructive calamities brought about by today's climate change crisis. May I also share another of the earlier Bible revelations from God to Maestro Evangelista's about how Jesus willfully desecrated God's law about the Sabbath day. Let us begin by reading the event with Jesus in Mark 2: 23-26 23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 25 He answered, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” Mark 2:23-26 NIV Here we can read that Jesus was accused by the Pharisees about how he and his disciples were doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath. In God's law about the Sabbath, He commanded His people to not do ANY work but only to take a full day's rest (Deut.5:12-14, Exo.31:12-17) and God even reiterated in His commandment that by resting on the Sabbath day, His people will be like honoring Him on how He too rested after His creation. If we also use our understanding about God's commandment regarding the Sabbath, Maestro Evangelista said, God made that law for our benefit because we can be able to make our bodies rest and rejuvenate itself after six days of work. Going back to the accusation of the Pharisees about disregarding the Sabbath, Jesus answered them by citing the scriptures about an event that happened during the time of David, when he and his companions, when they were hungry, ate of the consecrated bread in the temple of God, the kind of bread which was only meant to be ate by priests. Our beloved late Maestro Evangelista also said that we should keep in mind too, that the accusation of the Pharisees was about Jesus and his companions doing what was unlawful on the Sabbath day. It is not about David's violation. Let us read what happened during David's time and discover for ourselves if David too, violated the Sabbath day. "1 David went to Nob, to Ahimelek the priest. Ahimelek trembled when he met him, and asked, “Why are you alone? Why is no one with you?” 2 David answered Ahimelek the priest, “The king sent me on a mission and said to me, ‘No one is to know anything about the mission I am sending you on.’ As for my men, I have told them to meet me at a certain place. 3 Now then, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever you can find.” 4 But the priest answered David, “I don’t have any ordinary bread on hand; however, there is some consecrated bread here—provided the men have kept themselves from women.” 5 David replied, “Indeed women have been kept from us, as usual whenever I set out. The men’s bodies are holy even on missions that are not holy. How much more so today!” 6 So the priest gave him the consecrated bread, since there was no bread there except the bread of the Presence that had been removed from before the LORD and replaced by hot bread on the day it was taken away." 1 Samuel 21:1-6 NIV As we can read, we can discover some errors in Jesus' citation of this event. First- the priest was not Abiathar as Jesus said, it was Ahimelek Second- Jesus was wrong in saying that only priests can eat the 'sacred' bread. The consecrated bread can be shared by the priests to other men provided the men kept themselves from women. Third and most important- David and his men were not violating the Sabbath day. Jesus cited an event which has nothing to do at all with the Sabbath day. It is clear that Jesus and his disciples committed what is forbidden on the Sabbath day. We can also see how Jesus was misdirecting the topic about the Sabbath. Why don't we read again Mark 2, this time in verses 27 to 28 and see what Jesus said to the Pharisees in addition about the Sabbath Then he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.” Mark 2:27-28 NIV Here Jesus claims that he is also the Lord of the Sabbath. Though God indeed made Sabbath for man's benefit, it is not right for Jesus to say that he is Lord of the Sabbath because God did not give him any authority about it. Let us read what God said about the significance of the Sabbath day 16 The Israelites are to observe the Sabbath, celebrating it for the generations to come as a LASTING covenant. 17 It will be a sign between me and the Israelites FOREVER, for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.’ Exodus 31:16-17 NIV God stated that the observance of the Sabbath is a LASTING covenant between Him and His people. God will not change it. For Jesus to say that God made him Lord of the sabbath, Jesus was truly committing blasphemy. Question: Weren't Jesus and his disciples simply plucking grain for food during the Sabbath? Let us read an event during the time of Moses and see how God wanted the law about the Sabbath be implemented. "32 While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day. 33 Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, 34 and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him. 35 Then the LORD said to Moses, “The man must die. The whole assembly must stone him outside the camp.” 36 So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the LORD commanded Moses." Numbers 15:32-36 NIV God Himself, not Moses judged a man who was just gathering wood during the Sabbath day to be punished by death. That is how serious God was about the Sabbath. Jesus and his disciples could have done it on a different day but not on the Sabbath. Jesus has deliberately opposed God's law about the Sabbath and this is one of his wrongdoings why God's punishment of being flogged by men as written in 2 Samuel 7:12-14 occurred to him. May the readers be reminded that this is not about discrediting Jesus but rather revealing the real and true story regarding Jesus which the apostles of Jesus had hidden. This is not to promote a new religion or faith but only to share God’s true message in the Bible. REGARDING GENESIS 3 verse 15. Sharing my notes from what was taught by the late Teacher Evangelista (of the website thename.ph) during one of his Bible study sessions: This is about God's word to Satan in Genesis 3 verse 15. 15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” Genesis 3:15 New International Version. God said that Satan can "strike the heel" of the descendant of Adam and Eve. This means Satan can also deceive the descendant of Adam and Eve. The mere fact that God gave Satan the capability to test or deceive the descendant of Adam and Eve, shows that the chosen one is just a man, prone to being deceived and capable of committing wrong but also has the power of overcoming it. The question is, who is the descendant of Adam who was destined to crush Satan or the serpent's head or overcome their deception but can also be deceived and can commit wrong? To learn the answer to the question, we must know first the real identity of the serpent in Genesis 3:15. Let us read Revelation 12:9 "The great dragon was hurled down - that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him." Revelation 12:9 NIV “that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan,"- Confirmed. The serpent in Genesis 3:15 is none other than Satan. Now that we unmasked Satan's identity, we can now know who is the descendant of Adam and Eve that he needs to deceive. Let us read Luke 4:3. The devil said to him, "If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread." Luke 4:3 (NIV) Satan/Devil was challenging Jesus to turn the stone into bread. Therefore it is #Jesus who is the descendant of Adam and Eve. We thought, as we were made to believe by the Churches and religious preachers, that Jesus overcame Satan in this event in Luke chapter 4, however, we did not give attention to what was written in Luke 4:13. "When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time." Luke 4:13 (NIV) "he left him until an opportune time"-As we can read, the temptation did not end there. Satan or the Devil came back to Jesus at an opportune time. This is what religions did not teach us. What did Religions not tell us about Jesus? Aside from not telling us that Satan came back to deceive Jesus a second time. They also did not tell us that Jesus was capable of committing wrong. Let us read God's words in 2 Samuel 7:12-14 Be informed about the real word of God as to why He had sent Jesus: “When your days are over and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom. II Samuel 7:12 (NIV) The promise was given to David - a descendant will come from his bloodline. What would be the work of the descendant? “He is the one who will build a house for my Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever...” II Samuel 7:13 (NIV) The first choice was King Solomon - a “real son” or descendant of David. King Solomon built the house with the Name of God. (1 Chronicles 22:9-13) What was the promise of God? “I will be his father, and he will be my son. WHEN HE DOES WRONG, I WILL PUNISH HIM WITH A ROD WIELDED BY MEN, WITH FLOGGINGS INFLICTED BY HUMAN HANDS – II Samuel 7:14 (NIV) “WHEN HE DOES WRONG” – the descendant of David would be punished. King Solomon was not punished by “the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men", (I kings 11:1-13, v.41-43). We do know that Jesus was punished in that manner. In the said verses: 2 Samuel 7:12-14 (NIV) – we can read that God speaks of a coming offspring of David and not a literal "son of God" as the religions preach. And in: You will be with child and give birth to a son and you are to give him the name Jesus He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David. Luke 1:31-32 (NIV) "will be called" – as you have read it, Jesus was only a son or a descendant of David not a real “son of God", he was just a man. “The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.” – It is very clear; it is David that Jesus was descended from - meaning that he (Jesus) is not a real Son of God as the religions had preached. Was Jesus, the descendant of King David punished by the rod and floggings of men? All the people answered, "Let his blood be on us and on our children!" Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified. Matthew 27:25-26 (NIV) Indeed, Jesus was flogged by men, as God stated in His prophecy in 2 Samuel 7:12-14 - “I will be his father, and he will be my son. WHEN HE DOES WRONG, I WILL PUNISH HIM WITH A ROD WIELDED BY MEN, WITH FLOGGINGS INFLICTED BY HUMAN HANDS." It is time to open OUR EYES and UNDERSTAND what God clearly said--Did God say in His prophecy that the descendant of David (who is Jesus) - will be flogged by men for the sins of mankind or for his (Jesus) own wrongdoing? Are the religions and the Apostles right in preaching that Jesus was flogged for our sins when we read God’s own words in 2 Samuel 7:12-14? No, because God clearly said that such floggings will happen to David’s descendant (Jesus) once he commits wrong. Since Jesus was punished with the floggings of men because of him committing wrong, it means Satan was able to deceive him just like what happened to Adam and Eve. Jesus’ brutal and humiliating death is the undeniable proof that he failed in his mission and not for mankind’s salvation. This also explains why the world is under all this suffering as all this time, we have been made by churches and religions to revere and worship a man punished by God with the floggings of men because of his (Jesus) wrongdoing.
