Return of the Smoking Gun
In a previous writing called the "Smoking Gun", I discussed the truth that the western church has selectively hidden or forgotten for ages: that the entire Western Church had been excommunicated from the Church of Jerusalem six years before the Council of Nicea, making the entire western church and all its branches including Roman Catholicism, the Orthodox Churches, the Protestant Churches and every sect or cult that has proceed from the festering bowels of this obscene behemoth a part of the same crime of rejecting Jerusalem.
Obviously, this is not news that most westerners, especially western religionists want to hear. But, just because the news is not pleasant does not mean the news is not true. A mistake can only be remedied, if a mistake is admitted and until the Western Church admits the truth, it can only devolve; this is its destiny apart from the Church of Jerusalem.
As shocking as it is in finding out that the entire western church was and still is excommunicated and apostate, there is more to this story. Much that, for any serious follower of Messiah, will bring sadness to their hearts. Because what happened around the events of the excommunication have scarred us all. We were all betrayed, from Messiah, the Shlikhim, the talmidim and the Early Church of Jerusalem. And every single serious seeker of the One God of the Universe and the One true Messiah all have been deceived by an evil creation. All created by man’s lust for power, for opulence and prestige.
Here is what I mean: In the early 300's CE, Emperor Constantine, a convert to the new faith promoted in Rome officially sanctioned Pauline Christianity in Rome. Only a few short years later, Patriarch Yoseph of the Church of Jerusalem in exile sent emissaries to the then bishop of Rome, Sylvester with his official letter that called the bishop of his flocks in Rome to repent from their deviation. They were admonished to recommit themselves to serve the Holy Church of Jerusalem - to come back to Torah, the Halakha of Maran Yeshua Mshikha.
The Bishop and his community lived in luxury. Gone were the days of Christians hiding in catacombs and being sacrificed in the coliseum. No, this was a new day, with a "Rome-Friendly" bishop with his lackeys. Sylvester and his cronies were courted and pampered by Constantine. The religion that was growing in influence in Rome was now being influenced by Rome.
Think how different this was from the men traveling to meet Sylvester. The men sent to Sylvester were wearing rags and had worn calloused hands - like the Shlikhim and talmidim themselves. Simple people living simple lives.
His Holiness has stated that Church Records indicate that Sylvester and his assistants were wearing some of the finest clothing the emissaries had ever put their eyes on and were decked with jewelry from head to toe. Records indicate there was a vast amount of food being wasted, thrown away or burned and not even being given to the poor or even to animals near by.
So, what was the answer this Bishop gave to the emissaries of Jerusalem? Sylvester spurned both the emissaries and in turn Patriarch Yoseph, the Church of Jerusalem and ultimately Messiah, Himself!
The so-called believers of Rome were given every opportunity to repent and return to Mshikha, yet their luxury was their new idol.
But the corruption does not stop there! As stated earlier, Rome recognized Pauline Christianity. Shortly afterwards, Patriarch Yoseph made one final plea to Rome through Bishop Sylvester to repent and come back to Jerusalem or for them all to be excommunicated. And as we know, the Bishop decided the fate of the Western Church that day (I wonder, did anyone light a candle for the loss of the last vestige of the Real Church dying in the west that day? They should have.)
It is no surprise that soon afterwards, in 325 CE, the first of many "Ecumenical Councils" was held in Nicea to "determine" just what the beliefs of the collective groups (obviously from gentile backgrounds) were. The faith in the west was systematically subverted and twisted to remove all remnants of Judaism from her.
In only seven years from the excommunication of the entire western church there is a call for an "Ecumenical Council" to determine what the church collectively, democratically agrees to be the "truth" of Christianity. (A pagan's best guess, devoid of Judaism). Interestingly, to this day, the Yemeni Jewish community refers to the western church as the “Nosrim”, pagans who took the Jewish faith and added pagan idolatry to it. They are so very right.
The reason there was an "Ecumenical Council" in Nicea was BECAUSE the western church was excommunicated! Prior to this, the western church had the governance of the family of Miriam and Yosip, of the Apostolic Throne and the Chair of Mosha, the Apostolic Sanhedrin. There was no need for councils to determine what to believe and practice with all these God-given safeguards in place, but a false creation devoid of any contact with Messiah and the Holy Church would need to agree upon what they held to be true.
This the point to get from all of this: The first "Ecumenical Council" did not occur haphazardly around the same time of the excommunication of the western church; the first "Ecumenical Council" happened BECAUSE the Western Church was excommunicated.
IF you have the Apostolic Throne of +Mar Ya'aqub ha'Tzadik and the chair of Mosha, what is the purpose of an "Ecumenical Council" at all? If anyone ever asks us what we feel about the ecumenical councils, we should just say, "If Rome had stayed faithful to Jerusalem, there would be no so called Ecumenical Councils."
Notice how the ecumenical councils surgically excised everything within their power of Christianity that had to do with Judaism. Trying to make the Messiah more like a Mithras. Removing Shabbat, removing Jewish Holy Days so that even to this day, many Christians are shocked to find out that Passion of the Lord happened during Pesakh.
The text known as the Apostolic Constitutions known by the Western Church is a patchwork quilt of what is left after all remnants of Jewish thought is removed from them.
The Roman cult removed Messiah and His Holy Church from their central focus and placed the Roman monstrosity at the heart and center of the consciousness of believers in the west.
Notice the absurdity of a Mammon based entity, as to the selfless, simple and embracing Church of Jerusalem! What a mockery! These predecessors betrayed Messiah and every single follower of Messiah throughout history, not for noble ideals or virtues, but for one of the most base and pathetic vices in existence, the desire for power and wealth. Messiah deserves so much better than this, my brothers and sisters!
Bishop Sylvester should have removed the title "bishop" and replaced this with title "centurion" as he was as much a stooge of the Roman Empire as any other Roman soldier.
Any Believer in Messiah who reads this should be upset and feel the sense of loss that those of the west lost that day in Rome when Sylvester turned his back on Messiah and steered his sheep off into the darker paths. It should make every serious Believer upset because those sheep who trusted in their shepherd whom they thought served Messiah, were OUR ancestors! It is from them that we in the west still hold on to every heresy. Believing because they are millennia old, they must be valid for some reason. What a travesty!
So the next time you hear churches speak about Mammon, dressing their churches in Gold, or have smarmy preachers on massive screens tell stadiums to accrue wealth because this is what Messiah wants us to do, remember, it was because of Mammon and opulence that sheep of Rome rejected the simple faith of Messiah and the Holy Church of Jerusalem. At the end of the day, we are either emulating Patriarch Yoseph and his emissaries or we are emulating Bishop Sylvester and his minions. Make sure you know whom you serve.
