CNN Program "Finding Jesus" Full Of Suppositions

Tonight,I tried to watch this series of programs on CNN to see if I could learn something new to add to what I have learned over the years,through realizing that the Greek and Hebrew/Aramaic terms for some things appear to mean the same in English,but,at the root they don't,example:

       "Christ" and "Mashiach."

Although they both mean "anointed one" in English,the latter refers exclusively to the messiah in Tanakh,while the former refers just like the name "Jesus(from Latin: "Iesus",Greek: "Isous",short form of "Iesous" "healer of Zeus"),refers to Greek pagan deities.

*Doesn't anybody wonder about the fact that when the Romans invaded Jerusalem and built their city Aelia Capitolina" on top of the ruins and erected their sun-deity image,they named after their deities,and the abbrevation is: "IHS" -it's on EVERY church banner -and it doesn't mean what they think it means!!!

The other problem is the fact that Eusebius,the early extant church historian(260-340 C.E.),stated in his Ecclesiastical  History that The Rabbi From Nazareth was known by the title of Ribi Yehoshua,and.more that after his death,the charge over his Netzarim talmidim was given over to his brother "Ya'acov HaTzaddik",hellenized to "James The Just."

When you also realize that in Judaism,according to Devarim(hellenized to Deuteronomy)13:2-6,no Jew,especially a Rabbi would ever have said the Torah was done away with,much less declare himself "the son of G-d",you realize that any logically thinking scholar  must ask the following questions:


  • What does Orthodox Judaism believe?
  • What is the Hebrew/Aramaic meaning of....?
  • What was the political situation?
  • What do later historians write?
  • Any there any documented clues in the regards to these first century events?
  • Is the New Testament(displacement theology term invented by Marcian!) genuine,or redacted?

Anyway...when the narrator reads the names on the ossuary,he keeps saying " James the brother of Jesus",I kept yelling "That's not what it says,dummy!You can't read!"It says: "Ya'acov Bar Yosef...."

I don't see anything wrong with Anglicization,but,it is always best to preserve the original language terms when dealing with certain subjects,but,one should also make sure that the Anglicized name DOES equal the linguistic term in that language.In this case,they don't!

This is what I mean by supposition. On all these programs,they have "professors",etc,from Christian backgrounds,rabbiting the same regurgitated stuff,never bothering to check their sources.

In other fields,if experts did this,they'd get themselves in a lot of trouble,but,in religion it's allowed,because like Columbus' discovery of America being pre dated by the Vikings,there's no sense changing history because nobody cares anyway,and,because "religion is big business(for Israel)" and money,support and votes count!

After a while it got so bad I turned it off.

May the truth be told -yet!

The Christian Church And Dragnet

If you are old enough to remember watching Dragnet,that popular Crime Drama from way back in the 1950s-1970s,you'll remember that Sergeant Friday(Jack Webb) always opened the program with: "The story you are about to hear is true,but the names have been changed to protect the innocent...."



Well,the old Looney Tunes had a parody of Dragnet,with Daffy Duck playing "Detective Duck Drake",where he opens the cartoon with: "The story you are about to hear is true,but the names have been changed to protect the guilty(he raises his voice at this point and spits the italicized part out in contempt!)."


At this point,you must be thinking: "Well,how is the Church involved and how and where is the relationship between it and Dragnet?"

It's purely symbolic!

Firstly,Daffy Duck's line is closer to the truth(in this case),than the original Dragnet line,in that if I had entitled this article differently,it would have been:

Operation Ecclesiastical Cover up Exposed!

What better way to discredit the Jews as a people than to paint them as the bad guys and erase all evidence of their history,twist it,contaminate it and claim it as your own -knowing that::
  • you have the power in Europe;nobody would dare to challenge you,or they and their country will be 'under an edict','declared anathema[under a curse]' ,etc.
  • Keep the Bible only in Latin,chained to the pulpit
  • Make sure that the common people stay illiterate and unlearned ,so they can't read it
  • Make  them too jaded and lazy to make the effort anyway

But.....there are always a few who will -because they have to know...for sure!

 Some,well meaning 'Simpletons' consider it 'a lack of faith' to question and look for evidence.Their motto is: "I believe the Bible and that's good enough for me."That's a whole article in itself,so I don't time to explore that one,but the truth is(especially in this day and age),all the background material you can come up with,so much the better,and many people,especially educated people,will respect you a lot more.

To put it another way: Columbus discovered America in 1492...(the same year the Jews were kicked out of Spain....Is there a relationship there,or is that just coincidence?),or did he?

Firstly,how do you discover a land that already has somebody there[read about the Caribe and other Indians and what Columbus' Spanish Conquistadors did to them[mind you,all Indian tribes had a history of oppressing each other in the same way],and on top of all that,my question is how did Roman Catholicism fit into all this?

Archaeologists say the the Vikings were actually here first,as early as 900 C.E,but some people have so accepted the well taught account that they would say: "What's the point of changing all the history books?"

Of course,if history was like George Orwell's '1984',one would just go back and 'edit' the past articles to say anything they want. His job was to 'edit' past archives of the Newspaper to agree with whatever 'those in power' were saying at the time!

I remember back in the fall of 1981,or maybe it was early 1982,when I met this guy from Jews For Jesus on the street in downtown Toronto.What he said really got me thinking and realizing: "Aha!Now,I'm onto something,except,I don't know what,or how to go about finding it out..."

He said: 'You have to remember that we Jews have been the victims of nearly 2,000 years of Ecclesiastical history and bad Bible translations,and in any case,his name wasn't Jesus,it was Yeshua."

So,I realized that like any good Reporter,I was going to have to do some deep digging to get to the bottom of this story and Watergate had nothing on this one!

Over the years,I continued to listen to various "Messianic Jews(they're 'christians',not because they believe "The Rabbi From Nazareth" is the Mashiach,but because,like the Church,they deify him and add Xtn doctrines,such as 'original sin(invented by Athanasius of Alexandria,apparently)",and "Vicarious Atonement(ca. 200 C.E. plus)" -all Greek and pagan  in their origin! )" explain and explore the "Jewish background" and "Jewish understanding" and Judaism" behind the 'story."

Each time,I came away with the thought "Something is wrong with this story and just isn't adding up!"

Suffice to say(as I found out 15 years later through The Seventh Day Adventist Church),there is nowhere in the N.T. where it says "the Law is done away with" and nowhere did "The Rabbi From Nazareth,his disciples,or Paul The Apostate,ever give any authorization for keeping Sun-g-d-day holy.

Where did they come from?

Constantine(cf. Daniel 7:25) and The Hellenist-Roman Church,aka Papal-Rome!

cf. Daniel chapter 2 and 7....re: Daniel's Fourth Beast -'an egg-laying Dragon.

In other words,Pagan Rome gave birth to,or morphed(changed shape and form,that is)into 'Papal Rome.'

Europe and the governments of the World,particularly,the western world ie:Europe,Canada,USA,Mexico,Central and South America,Australia and all the other former British Commonwealth Nations and the U.N. are the continuation and extension of that original pagan Roman Power ('Edom' ,'Esau')which would love to get rid of the Jews and Israel('Jacob') helped by Esau's descendents -Ishmael(the Arabs and Islam).

  • Witness the fact that it was the Emperor Hadrian who renamed the area of Judah/Judea and Samaria as 'Palestina."
  • Christianity started in 135 C.E.(not before)when the Romans deposed the 15th Netzarim Paqid Yehudah HaTzaddik and DISPLACED him with their own Roman gentile bishop 'Marcus' and thus began the mix of Babylonian/Egyptian/Greco/Roman pagan sun-g-d worship religion with Hellenized Judaism(Greek speaking Jews),the rise of the "Hellenist-Roman counterfeit man-g-d image" Jesus and the war against the Jews -which contines to this day.
  • In 1917,the Balfour Declaration,took land from the Ottoman Turks and doled it out to create the current Middle east map.Only 25% of that land was given to Israel,and yet,the U.N. and the other world powers(can you say 'Oil?'),since 1948 continuely press Israel into giving away land,which doesn't help because the Arabs('Palestinian' is a political label that never existed before 1948 -and the Arabs created that problem anyway)are never satisfied and have only one goal(like Hitler's): 'No more Jews,no more Israel,and Jerusalem -all ours!"
This weekend is Tisha B'Av -look it up and you'll find out that every major calamity from the destruction of the Beit HaMiqdash HaSheni(hellenized to 'Second Temple'),to the Second World War and the Shoah("Holocaust")...happened on the 9th of Av.


To make this article shorter and to get all the details of the real 1st-4th century history just go here:


Click: Christian Upgrade

Then go to the "History Museum" and read 'left to right",but you may want to read "Orthodox Judaism" and "Salvation" first.


In any event,what you will find is a very different history than the common western Ecclesiastical History('Christianity is an assumed faith').

From Christianity To Netzarim Judaism

I was born in Maidstone,Kent,England in 1958 and experienced religion at an early age attending The Church of England,saying "The L_rd's Prayer" and singing Hymns at Primary School.

I started taking French in school at age 7.This would turn to be significant later on.

When I look back on it all now,I realize that like Avraham in Ur of the Chaldees,amongst all those idols,the one true Hashem(Devarim 4:6),the Perfect Singularity/Creator was calling out to him and He was also calling out to me and awakening in me a desire to know more of Him and leave the idols behind.Little,then did I realize what those idols were and are and even now,I'm only just beginning to thanks to Hebrew,Torah and the Netzarim!

In April of 1966,my family emigrated to Canada,eventually 2 years later settling in Peterborough,Ontario,where I grew up and where I continued my spiritual search,mostly via ocassional and seasonal Church attendance.

In Canada,in some areas our two official languages are spoken side by side.This was another positive influence for later on.Plus,TV and Radio have both present.

One thing I wondered about was the fact that I had some fellow Jewish students at Elementary school and when we had religious studies,they were always exempt.This made me curious.I asked one of them about it and he explained that they weren't teaching the Tanakh the same way he was taught!They were twisting it,he told me. I took note of that,but having a zeal,but no knowledge,didn't quite know what to think,so I shelved it!

One thing that happened during high school was in taking French my teacher instilled in me a gift for languages(Iwanted to drop it,but she begged me not to,telling me that "You know you like languages and have a gift for them") which would come in handy later on.I would develop an ear and a knack for picking up languages years later.

In the Spring of 1978,I returned to England to live,getting involved in various Pentecostal groups,eventually,after it all made sense,finally giving up my life and becoming "born again."

In the fall of 1981,back in Canada,I made a vow that I would never be a victim of somebody's Bible translations,because I would study the original languages for myself.

After seeing an ad in a Toronto newspaper,where I was living at the time,I took a course in modern Hebrew,visited a "Messianic" Jewish Assembly,a Conservative Synagogue and talked to the many Jews I would encounter around the city.I bought a Hebrew Bible and I even read part of the Talmud once.I also bought myself some cassettes and began teaching myself modern Greek.There were questions I had to have answers to and I knew I was not going to find them in any translation.

I was becoming aware of a number of conflicts,but couldn't sort them out at that time,not having the information I needed.For example,I observed that "Messianic" Judaism,as refreshing as it was,compared to the churches,was just a Christianity with Jewish clothing!

I realized that to understand the true 1st century message,the events and names must be restored to their first century linguistic,cultural and religious context.

In translating any language,it is said that at one end of the scale you have "literal translation(word for word)",at the other end is "figurative(loose translation)" and then there's the middle.The hard part is getting the thought form across.Often what happens in going from one lanaguage to another, only the words get translated and even then,they get twisted!I was becoming increasingly aware that Ribi Yehoshua's(Aramaic "Yeshua" NOT the post 135 C.E. 4th century Hellenist/Roman counterfeit man g_d image "J-e-s-u-s" invented by the Roman church!) original message had been changed and twisted thanks to the Greek.

I remember watching a cartoon about Channukah once,where the candles were lit with Hebrew letters,but when the letters were changed to Greek,the lights went out,until the Greek letters were replaced with Hebrew ones again.This of course,was the Macabee story,but even so,it's common knowledge that Ribi Yehoshua and his Talmidim spoke Western Aramaic,NOT Greek.For Jews,their language whether Hebrew,Aramaic,Ladino,Yiddish,etc has preserved their identity and kept them together,but that's another story indeed!

I began attending a Greek Evangelical church and looking into the Greek,as well as keeping my interest in Biblical Hebrew.I became aware though that despite the fact that Greek is more precise than English,it was not the language,or culture that the events of Ribi Yehoshua's day were conducted in.

One conflict I had was:

Why do Jews(and Seventh Day Adventists)worship on Shabbat("The Bible Sabbath"),but others on Sun-g_d-Day.People would tell me: "It doesn't matter...""The Torah is done away with..." I wondered:How can Hashem's law be changed....How did it get changed and how did this doctrine come about and if not from scripture where from?

The answer I found out years later: "All roads lead to (Papal)Rome."Also,Constantine and the Popes.

Many years later,I found out that Ribi Yehoshua and his Talmidim all kept Shabbat and their days were as Hashem had commanded: "...Sunset to Sunset..."...but man,namely Constantine and the Papal powers had changed Hashem's laws,namely Shabbat to Sun-g_d-day and Pope Gregory instituted the Julian Calendar,using the Babylonian/Roman reckoning of time with days beginning at midnight,again perverting Hashem's commands(Daniel 7:25).

I spent 15 years with The Seventh Day Adventist Church;5 years watching and 10 years in it and comparing scripture with scripture,but discovered that while they had the truth of the Sabbath and the "the law",they didn't know the difference between a "righteous" person and a "sinner("we're all sinners....")" and they held to "Replacement Theology("the church has replaced Israel as the people of Hashem.")

I now realize looking back that the Ruach HaQodesh was witnessing to my heart that these were a few of the many false doctrines.I also discovered that all the symbols in Christianity came from Papal Rome and theirs from Pagan sources.Afterall,it is said that the seat of the Babylonian religion was moved to Rome in 376 C.E.

I also became increasingly aware that most Christians are just blindly following whatever doctrines their church believes,keeping their roster of "scriptural proofs" yet never opening their bibles to check anything out.And they say "Hashem has blinded the Jews!?" They need to look in their own mirror!

All the churches come from their mother(Papal Rome) and the so-called Protestant Reformation wasn't much of a reformation at all,because despite the fact that their motto was 'Sola Scritura(Scripture Only)",they never made a clean break from the Roman church and none of their doctrines were/are from scripture.Prostestantism is just watered down Roman-Catholicism,as I see it now.

I knew I had to come out of all the churches and got loosely involved with the "Hebrew Roots Movement" which is made up of people searching out their Hebrew roots and are all in various stages of coming out of the churches.As they see the Bible truths via the Hebrew and Aramaic,the Greco/Roman Mindset starts to crack and fall away!Unfortunately,the other side of the coin,the Messianic Movement is still basically Christianity(they won't admit that,of course).I realized I had to avoid picking up any more unbiblical junk!

I realized,again,that if I wanted to know the truth,I had to start from Torah and put all 1st century events back in their Orthodox Jewish and Aramaic/Hebraic context.When I did,all the false idolatrous teachings I'd learned were quickly shown as false in the light of the Torah.

Then in late 2009,via a websearch for "Who are the Netzarim?" I came across 'www.Netzarim.co.il" and the final piece of the Jigsaw Puzzle appeared.

It explained what I had kind of known all along,that I had been the victim of 2000 years of Eclessiastical lies and Greek polution of the first century Rabbi's pro-Torah,Jewish message.

In studying: "Who Are The Netzarim?" "Atonement In The Biblical New Convenant and "The Netzarim Reconstruction Of Hebrew Matitiyahu" ,I can see clearly how Ribi Yehoshua's message got perverted by Daniel's fourth Beast (Daniel 2),the egg laying Dragon of Pagan,then Papal Rome.
