Holy Echad Marriage
& the Elohim Principle

Yahweh of Powers

Before we can understand what biblical marriage is, we must first understand the Elohim Principle. 'Elohim' is the plural form of the Hebrew word 'El' which we traditionally translate as 'God(s)' (Elohim), 'god' (el) or 'gods' (elohim) (though the English word 'God' is derived from an Indo-Germanic fertility deity called 'Ghodh') which some more accurately render as 'Mighty One(s)', 'Authority/Authorities', or better still, 'Power(s)'. When our English Bibles speak of 'Lord God' they are more accurately speaking of 'Yahweh of Powers'.

What is Elohim?

In Scripture the word 'elohim' is used to describe Yahweh our Heavenly Father (the Supreme or Almighty Elohim), Yah'shua the Messiah His divine Son, the Ruach haQodesh (Holy Spirit), malakim (angels), demons (fallen angels), pagan deities (idols and the demonic powers behind them) and human rulers (especially the judges in Israel). Because of our continued use of the word 'God' and 'gods' there has been confusion as to why this word is used of both Deity, angels and man, and many have wrongly assumed that everyone (including man) can become deity. It must therefore be said that all powers or elohim are derived from the Most High, El Elyon, or Yahweh-Elohim, so that nobody apart from Yahweh is an 'independent power'. It was the illusion that angels could become independent of Yahweh that led Lucifer (Heylel) to make his fateful choice to rebell and it is the same choice that all men and women make when they rebell against Yahweh's sovereignty.

Man's Inability to Exercise Power

The Elohim Principle is born into us. Everybody either seeks to become an elohim themselves (having power over others - majority) or they seek out other elohim to be submitted to (the minority). Every religious and secular system, including atheistic systems, are founded on the Elohim Principle and those few systems which initially sought to overthrow it (like Anarchism and Maoism) always fall back to it because it is 'unnatural' not to. And yet we are continually disappointed by it and throw it off in cycles not because it is wrong but because we have, as the Adamic race, rebelled against the structure Yahweh has set up. We simply do not know how to independently use power wisely or righteously.

Elohim as Love

Yahweh is the supreme Power or Elohim in the Universe. He says there is no other. Once we accept that, we are well on the way towards implementing the Elohim Principle in righteousness. If only it were so simple! The trouble is, the word 'power' had so many negative connotations, and understandbly so, because of its rampant abuse by man. And because of man's abuse, it is understandably viewed with suspicion. And that is also why rendering Elohim as simply 'power' is not adequate, even though it is absolutely true. For this is not any old kind of power, but is a power defined by a nature which is itself a composite of many other things. Elohim is also defined as 'love' in Scripture (1 Jn.4:8,16) but again, not just any old kind of 'love'. The love which is the core nature of Yahweh is again qualified by Scripture, because it is not an ego-centric, self-serving love but a sacrificial love. Some of you may be familiar with a Greek a term commonly used in Christian circles called agapé which is the nearest we can get to the original Hebrew which is chesed, a word that is a combination of 'mercy' and 'loving kindness'. It is connected to the concept of 'grace' which is 'unmerited favour' or 'undeserved loving kindness'. When we describe Yahweh as 'love' we are therefore including all of these modes of being. Yah'shua His Son is "full of grace and truth" like His Father (Jn.12:14).

Elohim as Covenant

There is, however, more to love than these qualities. Scripture is replete with the idea that true love is resident in the idea of covenant. Yahweh is described as an Elohim of Covenant and that true love - the love which comes from Him - cannot have its fullest expression unless it is rooted in a covenant agreement with Him. This is true today as it was anciently. According to Scripture we abide under a New Covenant which replaces the Old (Mosaic) one, and resembles an even earlier Covenent known as the Covenant of Abraham. There are actually many kinds of covenant in the Scriptures with the New one that we live under actually being a compound of, and including, many. When love is expressed through covenant it is called Covenant Love and is ranked as the highest form of love in Scripture. It is the love that agrees to behave and act towards others in a Elohim-ordained certain way irrespective of how others behave and act towards us. The Covenant is a contract which we enter into as believers to follow the rules set down by Yahweh for the orderly and happy running of the Universe. When Yah'shua said: "If you love Me, keep My commandments" (Jn.14:15, NKJV) this is the kind of love He was talking about. These commandments are contained within the Torah.

Counterfeit vs. Authentic Love

This is divine love. It is contrasted in Scripture with another kind of 'love' which is counterfeit. To enjoy this Elohim-Love comes with a price tag, and the deal is basically this: if you want the real thing, you have to kick out the counterfeit. Yah'shua said:

"Whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it" (Matt.16:25, NKJV).

Authentic life, love and power comes only from Yah'shua. We are not born with it, at least not in its fullness. We have, as it were, only a small 'deposit' (like a radar) to help us identify and (if we choose) receive it (Jn.1:9,12). And it can only be obtained from Yah'shua when we are willing to put aside our own desires and will for His, so that He can live His life through our own, our life becoming His:

"I have been crucified with Messiah; it is no longer I who live, but Messiah lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of Elohim, who loved me and gave Himself for me" (Gal.2:20, NKJV).

Life vs. Ritual

Holy Echad Marriage cannot be grasped until this core truth is understood; and it cannot be understood until it has become a reality in your life. And it cannot become a reality in your life until you have willingly died to self and its ambitions and aspirations. Until this has happened the essence of Holy Echad Marriage cannot be lived. Neither can Covenant Love have any real sort of life because all true love begins in that surrender of heart that admits Yah'shua in and allows Him to sit on the throne of your heart. Until that happens, everything else is just a lifeless ritual called by many 'religion' (though there is true religion too).

Mystical Marriage of Messiah

There is only one kind of marriage in the New Covenant of Yah'shua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) and that is the kind described by the apostle Paul which we call the 'Triple M' or Mystical Marriage of Messiah:

"Wives, submit (subject yourselves) to your own husbands, as to (in the same way that you do to) the Master (Yah'shua). For the husband is head of the wife, as also Messiah is head of the Messianic Community (Body/church); and He is the Saviour of the body. Therefore, just as the Messianic Community (Body/church) is subject to Messiah, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Messiah also loved the Messianic Community (Body/church) and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious Body (church), not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Master does the Messianic Community (Body/church). For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.' This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Messiah and the Messianic Community (Body/church). Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband" (Eph.5:22-33, NKJV).

The Challenge of Patriarchal Marriage

This is the Elohim Principle in marriage otherwise known as 'Patriarchal Marriage', meaning 'father-ruling'. When Paul says that "the husband is the head of the wife" it is this headship principle that is being referred to. This is also one of the most twisted scriptures in Christendom as believers try to wriggle out of the plain sense or p'shat of the text. It is with such 'challenging' scriptures - 'challenging' in the sense that they go against the grain of the humanistic and atheistic philosophy that governs modern society, not to mention our own carnal nature - that believers reveal how much they actually mean when they say that the Bible is Yahweh's 'infallible word'. It's at this point and with Scriptures such at these that believers - in truth, only partial believers - start balking. May I underline the passage that sends waves of terror or anger through the feminists?

"Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to (in the same way that you do to) the Master (Yah'shua)".

Carnal Whiplash

A typical backlash and excuse not to be submissive is: 'My husband is not perfect like Christ' as if this alters Yahweh's Word which suddenly, in the carnal mind, becomes 'less than infallible'. Understandably thoughts of an arbitrary tyrant ruling like some abusive fundamentalist Muslim crowd the mind with horror. Then atheistic thoughts like 'this was for then but not for today' or 'we have evolved beyond such an outmoded oppressive system' or 'we are more enlightened today' or 'we have been liberated from that ancient patriatrchal stuff' or 'God has given us a greater revelation' or 'Paul was a misogynist (woman-hater) and was not inspired', and so on, appear from the back of our heads in an unconscious bid to reconcile faith with fear. In this website you will be confronted with the truth behind all such carnal statements. We do not beat around the bush.

Accept and Obey the Word

I mentioned earlier that the Elohim Principle has its counterfeits and truly these we should fear when they find their way into the assemblies and churches. Nevertheless there is a true Elohim Principle and the words of Paul are absolutely true: wives are to submit to their husbands in exactly the same way as believers (male and female) are supposed to submit to Messiah (Christ).

No Escape for Husbands Either

In parallel, husbands are supposed to love their wives in the same way that Yah'shua loves all believers. This is not a small matter. A surprisingly few number of men know how to love as Yah'shua loves just as few women these days know how to submit. Yahweh has not given to husbands the right to rule capriciously or without accountability. To be consistent, if women refuse to submit to their husbands in the same way that believers submit to Messiah because the husbands are imperfect, then husbands should refuse to love their wives until they are perfect too and vice versa. As you will learn on this website, though, no such quid pro quo arrangement exists in the Scriptures. Irrespective of whether husbands or wives are perfect or not, wives are to submit to their husbands in everything (that does not require them to break the commandments, of course, and so disobey Yahweh) and show them respect in the same way they do to Yah'shua, and husbands are to love their wives in the same way that Yah'shua loves His metaphorical bride. In a world where abusive relationships reign supreme, this may seem scary for both partners but if the two are genuinely seeking to "work out [their] salvation with fear and trembling" (Phil.2:12, NKJV) and are not just 'playing' at their religion, then they will be enabled by the Ruach haQodesh (Holy Spirit) to do what is right because it is the Ruach who not only enables but positively expects husbands and wives to live this way.

Submission and Love are Not Conditional

Moreover, Scripture nowhere says that a woman need not submit or show respect to her husband until he is loving, and nor does it say that a husband has the right to withhold love until his wife is submissive and respectful. Each partner is to fulfil his or her part of the marriage covenant in Messiah to Yahweh who issued the marriage covenant and commandment and decides on its conditions.

Seven Questions

Before we go on, I want to ask you, the (possibly) disturbed reader, seven hard questions. The way you answer them will determine whether you actually meant what you said or deceived yourself into believing in the Seven Foundation Stones article, and especially #2:

• 1. Do you believe that Elohim (God) or Messiah (Christ) has ever changed (check Ps.15:4; Mal.3:6; Heb.13:8 if you're not sure)? {Yes/No}
• 2. Do you believe that Elohim's morality has ever changed? Do you, for example, believe that Elohim is 'more moral' since Christ came than before? {Yes/No}
• 3. Do you think the Elohim of the New Testament is more loving than the Elohim of the Old? {Yes/No}
• 4. Do you believe Yahweh sanctions sin in one age and then punishes it in another? {Yes/No}
• 5. Do you believe that the Old Testament prophets of old didn't actually hear and know Elohim's voice and heart but were fumbling about to interpret it as best they could because their discernment wasn't very good? {Yes/No}
• 6. Do you believe that truth constantly evolves or changes and is not the same today as it was anciently? {Yes/No}
• 7. If the truth changes, then does that mean that Yah'shua, who said that He was the Way, the Truth, and the Life, might suddenly not be? Is He constantly changing into something else as truth evolves or changes? {Yes/No}

Honestly Examining Yourself

If any of your answers to these questions were 'Yes' then you did not really accept the Seven Foundation Stones for Holy Echad Marriage, and certainly not the second one on the infallibility of Elohim's Word. If your head said 'Yes' and your heart said 'No' then your head is deceiving you and you are double-minded and not yet built on a firm foundation (Jas.1:8). Like Peter, you have not yet been converted! (Lk.22:32, KJV) And until you are converted, and have become as little children, you can by no means enter the Kingdom of Heaven (Mt.18:3) or understand what divine marriage is. For if you believe that any of the answers to the seven questions are 'yes' in any degree, or if you don't know or are undecided, then you will never accept Holy Echad Marriage and you should stop reading here and exit this website. For if you have found any of the above difficult, you will find what follows excruciatingly difficult and your soul will rebel violently against it, or play a double game, pretending with your mind that you agree but with your heart refusing to.

The First in Your Life

Whether you agree with what has been written or not at this point, it is important that you be convinced of the scripturality of all that I have said. You're not expected to just 'take my word' because this is far too serious a matter to be treated lightly or superficially. Marriage is the second most important decision you will ever make in your life (after deciding whether to follow Yah'shua or not) and so this subject deserves and demands careful study. So before proceeding further with this website, you are invited to make an in-depth study of the sermon, The First in Your Life: An MLT Position Paper on Marriage by clicking on the image below and then returning to this page afterwards by clicking on the back arrow of your browser:

We have so far made an in-depth study of the Mystical Marriage of Messiah (Christ) and have made a careful exegesis of what the Bible teaches about the estate of marriage (if you have been reading the linked articles). You will probably need to re-read The First in Your Life several times in order for all the material to sink in. Remember also that there are numerous additional resources on our Sex, Romance and Marriage page which you are also invited to take a look at if you do not know too much about the biblical basis of this subject matter.

If you are still totally committed to a Messiah-centred life, to all truth, to overcoming the selfish, carnal, fleshy nature (putting it to death on the cross), are willing to give Yah'shua (Jesus) full control of your life, and totally trust the infallible Word of Elohim (God) - the Bible - and approach marriage as something very sacred and set-apart to Yahweh, then you are ready to move on in this study. If these things are not a reality in your life then you will not only have considerable difficulties as we probe deeper but you will almost certainly become hostile to this deeper scriptural exposition of Yahweh's heart.

I am sure that some of you are wondering at this stage what the word echad means. What do we mean by Holy Echad Marriage? Echad is a Hebrew word meaning 'one' as in several people being of 'one' mind in unity, harmony and agreement. It always implies more than one unit, usually people. Thus we may speak of the Elohim-head or Godhead as being echad as there is more than one Person and yet they are also 'one'. When we say there is one (echad) Elohim (God) we mean that there is ONE POWER consisting of several powers in complete unity. In other words, echad means 'uni-plural' or 'many in one'. It does not mean that Elohim (God) is one Person as Unitarians, Oneness Pentecostals and many Messianics, Jews and Muslims teach for which there is a separate word, yachid, meaning 'one unit'. Rather, as the Shema states:

"Hear, O Israel, Yahweh our Elohim ('the Lord our God'), Yahweh ('the Lord') is echad (one)!" (Dt.6:4)

"Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one (echad) as We are [one (echad)]...I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one (echad), as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one (echad) in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one (echad) just as We are one (echad): I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one (echad), and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me" (John 17:11,20-23, NKJV).

It is the commitment of this ministry to prepare those coming to it for holy echad marriage as well as giving pastoral counsel to ensure that those marriages remain strong and vibrant in a world which seeks to destroy them. With divorce rates as high as 60% in the West and common law marriages (partnerships) failing at the frightening rate of upwards of 90% (because there are no marriage covenants involved), and with the statistics being little better in the assemblies and churches, clearly something is seriously wrong and fellowships need to rediscover the biblical roots of marriage. To this end you are now invited to make a study of another sermon series entitled, Holy Echad Marriage: The Mystery of Oneness (Part 1) and In Practice (Part 2) by clicking on the image below. When you have studied these two sermons you are invited back here to resume your study:

To have a proper appreciation of Holy Echad Marriage also requires a fuller exposition of the Elohim-head (Godhead) which is somewhat obscured by all the accrued traditions of Romanism and Hellenism that have been passed on to Protestantism and much of Messianism. One of these false traditions is that the Ruach haQodesh or Holy Spirit is a male Person or (in most non-Trinitarian traditions) a mere 'neutral force'. However, as any careful study of the Hebrew Old Testament and Hebraic (not Greek) manuscripts of the Bible will reveal very quickly the Ruach haQodesh is always feminine! Using the simple Trinitarian formula of Father + Ruach haQodesh = Son, even common sense alone tells you that a Son needs a Mother in addition to the Father. How, then, have we arrived at a male 'Holy Ghost' historically? Because in the Greek language pneuma (spirit) is neuter (there is no neuter gender in Hebrew) so anyone translating from Hebrew or Aramaic into Greek would have to transform a feminine word (ruach) into a neutral one (pneuma). And then, by a further transmutation, the neutral pneuma is turned into an English 'spirit' which is derived from the masculine Latin (spiritus).

The result of this error led the Roman Church to transfer the need for the feminine or motherly part of Elohim to the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Yah'shua (Jesus), whom they have blasphemously elevated into a co-redemptrix (co-saviour) along with Yah'shua, thus making her virtual deity (the 'Mother of God'). (In truth, the Catholic Virgin Mary is just a cover for a concealed pagan deity who has been giving many false manifestations over the centuries). The neutralisation and then masculinisation of the Ruach haQodesh has also led Christians into concluding that the Father is not 'all-male' which has led to numerous liberal and feminist heresies. You are invited to make a deeper study of this and read the article, The Trinity: The Deity of the Holy Spirit by clicking the image below and then returning to this page afterwards:

If you are from an orthodox Christian or Jewish background the revelation that the Ruach haQodesh or Holy Spirit is our Heavenly Mother may come as quite a shock, though perhaps less so for Roman Catholics who have a different (though non-biblical) tradition about divine femininity. Understandably, there is a legitimate fear of goddess worship which is expressly forbidden in the Scriptures and for which ancient Israel was condemned when, aided and abetted by a fallen Solomon amongst others, she indulged in religious syncretism with paganism - Yahweh does not look kindly upon the pagan "Queen of Heaven" (Jer.7:18) otherwise known as Astarte or Ishtar.

However, there is a world of difference between this immoral demonic entity and the Ruach haQodesh (Holy Spirit) and there is certainly nothing intrinsicly wrong about the Elohim-head or Godhead possessing femininity, because moth maleness and femaleness are creations of Elohim. Indeed, most Christians accept that there must be divine femininity in Elohim somewhere (because of the way Adam and Eve were made) though are at a losss as to how exactly to know in what form this takes without reducing Elohim to some genderless hermaphrodite being that has more in common with occult ideas than biblical. So if you are worried, you are right to be for we are to be on guard against pagan infiltration. At the same time, we must guard against true mysogeny which sees the female as something lesser or inferior, which is the implication of an all-male Godhead doctrine. By insisting on clinging to classical Trinitarian ideas, which were birthed in the Roman tradition, adherents are forced to resort to mental gymnastics to 'explain' why their Godhead is all-male whilst having feminine attributes vaguely distributed in the mix, thus simultaneously emasculating the Elohim-head. Why not just "let Elohim be true but every man a liar" (Rom.3:4) and accept the plain truth that before the Greeks and other Europeans came and messed with the genders, Yahweh and Yah'shua were always, and are, male, and the Ruach haQodesh was always, and is, female. There is no shame in this. Indeed, because it is truth, it is glorious.

Do we worship the Heavenly Mother? Not directly, no. We follow the instructions of Yah'shua in the Lord's Prayer by addressing the Father, Yahweh. By honouring the Father we automatically honour the Mother because they are echad, in the same way that we honour the Father when we honour the Son. They are all echad. She is not an intermediary to Christ as the Virgin Mary is in the Catholic system - all glory has been given to Yah'shua and the Ruach always points seekers and believers to Him, and Him alone, for He alone is our salvation, having been appointed by the Father.

If you have come this far and are in agreement, you have done well. You are almost ready to plunge into the heart of the divine source of Holy Echad Marriage. And although one of the applications of Holy Echad Marriage that follows will probably have no personal impact on your married life (though you will probably fear that it will), the fact that there is 'more', that it is heavenly, that is it good and blessed when done correctly, is important for you to know about and agree with even if it never directly touches or impacts your family. There is a 99.9999999% chance that it never will as the extensive practice of this form of marriage is not prophesied to occur until Yah'shua returns following the devastation of the Great Tribulation (Is.4). Nevertheless it is truth, you must know about it and accept that it does belong to a few of Yahweh's people who are called into it. It is hinted at in the very Elohim-head (Godhead) itself for as you will have noticed there are seven Ruachim (Spirits) of Elohim (God), not just one. And though Bible commentators have tried to 'explain these away' by either claiming they are just seven aspects of a single Person or simply aspects of Yahweh Himself (and not seven separate Persons) the p'shat or literal truth is that the Heavenly Mother is not One Person but Seven who are echad. In other words, She, like the Elohim-head or Godhead itself, is uniplural. You will learn more of the Ruach haQodesh later on in this website.

As Bible-believing Christians and Messianics we are forced to address the fact that the Scriptures also endorse and protect a more complex form of marriage which was practiced extensively by the ancients. As part of our mandate to be scripturally honest and thorough like the New Testament Bereans we are therefore obliged to make a detailed study of these scriptures and the history of Israel both for the sake of the small minority of maturer believers called to live this way in the last days and for the sake of those who are already living this way in non-Western cultures when they convert to the Messiah so that they may live this principle righteously and honourably. This complex or multiple form of Holy Echad Marriage (as opposed to the simpler monogamous form which the vast majority should be adhering to) we call Uni-Plural Echad Marriage (UPEM) or simply Plural Echad Marriage (PEM) or simply Complex Echad Marriage (CEM) as opposed to Monogamous Echad Marriage (MEM) or Simple Echad Marriage (SEM) - both come under the umbrella of Holy Echad Marriage (HEM), MEM being the first stage of the development into PEM.

We use these terms to clearly distinguish what the scriptures teach from what is otherwise known as 'polygamy' or 'polygyny' as practiced by Muslims, Fundamentalist Mormons, Christian Polygamists, and others. Our purpose is not to encourage or promote multiple marriage (we actively discourage it) as some ideal or superior lifestyle for this age (because it isn't - this age is not ready to receive it), neither do we believe it is necessary for salvation or some mythical 'exaltation' (as fundamentalist Mormons teach). All marriage is simply a returning to what existed before we were born (see Pre-existence).

Yah'shua said:

"I (the Bridegroom) am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep (the uni-plural Bride), and am known by My own" (John 10:13-14, NKJV)

Holy Echad Marriage absolutely cannot be understood, let alone lived, unless Yah'shua is in the centre of ones awareness and being all the time. The carnal man will always try to separate Him from the marriage covenant and the marriage experience. And Complex Echad Marriage absolutely cannot function in the way marriage was intended without Him because it was never intended for the 'natural' man but for the spiritual one. Though it can 'function' in the 'natural' (carnal) state, it cannnot be full and satisfying for all the parties concerned as in the Simple Marriage arrangement without there being a supernatural foundation and context, because Complex Marriage is supernatural in both its design and function. Though permitted under the Old Covenant within certain bounds, it was, as you will learn, given a totally new meaning with a deeper basis, in the New, thus 'filling up' or 'completing' the incomplete marriage principles of the Old, in the same way that Yah'shua came to 'fill up' or 'complete' the Torah in the New Covenant (Mt.5:17) and not abolishing it.

Our primary calling is to teach you Holy Echad Marriage, not just the 'Simple' or 'Complex' Mariage manifestations of it. We desire you to become acquainted with, and implement, the spiritual principles of godly marriage irrespective of the type of Echad Marriage you may be called into. The principles for both types are the same because the principles are identical to those that bind the Body of Messiah - the allegorical Bride - to the Messiah - the allegorical Bridegroom. We are therefore more interested in spiritual principles than we are in practicalities because it is our conviction that when the spiritual principles are understood, absorbed and mastered, the practicalities take care of themselves.

The website that follows is a large one and covers many subject areas which you will find listed in a Topical Guide. If you are unfamiliar with the theological background of Plural Echad Marriage, we recommend that you start with the e-book, The Truth About Biblical Marriage by clicking on the logo below:

If you would rather not read a whole book, then start by reading the short article, Echad Polygamy and then, if you are still interested to know more, return and study the book. At any rate, it is important that you know exactly what the Bible teaches on this subject verse by verse before plunging into the deeper materials. When you have completed these two exercises, we recommend you return to this page for a final word before entering the main website.

For many readers there will be radically new concepts, obscured by ages of tradition and error, to consider. The material you have been reading on this page, though highly condensed, is the work of over 20 years deep study, personal revelation and experience. It was not obtained easily so what is presented here is not done so lightly. Our desire is to give all glory to Yahweh, our Father in Heaven, who is the revealing power or Elohim Principle behind these materials. Furthermore, unless the Ruach reveals these things to you personally, in conjunction with deep, meditative study of the Bible, debating this subject is really counter-productive. Our purpose is not, therefore, to enter into a debate, but rather to make a presentation and to leave you to decide 'yea', 'nay' or 'put on hold'. We are not here to recruit your support or persuade you to live this lifestyle. Since for the vast majority of our readers the purpose of this website can only be informative, that is our primary goal, so that those who are called will not be judged unrighteously. For the tiny minority who are already living this way (in whatever form) or who know absolutely they are called into it and don't just think they are (of the 1000 who think they are, usually no more than 1 actually is), then we have a group for seriously discussing these things which you can learn about on the main HEM website.

There are two important things to remember:

• 1. The truth sets us free (Jn.8:32);
• 2. Those who wrongly judge the truth believe in a lie (2 Thes.2:11), with all that that scripturally implies; and
• 3. Those who wrongly condemn are de facto condemned by Yahweh's Law and demonstrate they are so condemned by the departure of the fruits of the Ruach (Spirit) from them as reflected in their behaviour. Once the love of Elohim has departed, you are in trouble.

You are not obliged to enter this website and if you have any doubts we suggest you exit now, for it may well be the will of Yahweh that you do not enter for your own good. There are times and seasons for all things and here you must be honest about the possibility that this material is not for you now: there is a time for milk and a time for meat. Sometimes it is better to be ignorant for once you know the truth, you become accountable to it. So if you are uncomfortable or unsure, please click the X-button below:
