Do you know the reasons why I believe my ministry and those of other servants of Yehovaw are His will for today?

Welcome to the page on which Pastor Floyd talks about

Why Another Ministry?

The job of overcoming spiritual depravation, out of which comes violence, poverty, sickness, torment, the fear of death and death itself, has not been done! There are, upon Earth, people who are still so afflicted; and, until there are no more people so afflicted, Yehovaw's servants have their work cut out for them.

But there is even more to this question than that!

If there are ministries effectively doing what should be happening to remove Yehovaw's cursing and death from His people on Earth, why not simply join one of those powerhouses for the Lord and make it all the stronger, instead of creating another to duplicate the first ministry's efforts?

I wrestled with this problem, personally, for years, seeking one church organization after another in which to find a niche or a place of service in which I could simply be a meaningful part of one strong effort for Yehovaw!

But within Yehovaw's Gentile church the inevitable always happened! I would read His Holy Bible, start comparing it with what I saw happening around me and ask questions about what I saw; and it was not long before I was shown, in one way or another, that the subjects of my investigation would prefer that I go and investigate somewhere else!

So, after going through that exasperation a ridiculous number of times, I finally went home and started my own ministry in Yehovaw's holy name; and, such as it is, it is all I know to do, at this point in time; and I guess it will have to suffice, until He comes through Yeshuaw for His saints!

Although circumstances still pull me into one church involvement or another, I simply do not feel comfortable anywhere else! And, by Yehovaw's graciousness, there were, over the years, an handful of people who came to feel comfortable with me, who concluded that they could not find anybody teaching the Bible the way I did and who, by their presence in Sabbath convocations, their tithes and offerings and the precious contributions of their time and energy to the fellowship, expressed their delight in what I had discovered in Yehovaw's Holy Bible and had continually made known to them, each Sabbath!

Now my ministry and fellowship are facilitated through this website, communicating to all who will listen the unutterable joy of walking in Yehovaw's favor, power and blessing simply by doing what He has asked of us, which is to love Him and keep or put the highest possible value on the commandments of His toraw or law!

Under the dark cloud of today's mounting threats to sanity, security and economic survival anywhere in the world, another urgency has arisen, which has made all the more convincing to me the tremendous need of the world for the saving gospel (Mark 1:14; Romans 1:16) of the atonement of Yehovaw's toraw or law (Leviticus 17:11) as it was fulfilled by Yeshuaw with His own body and blood (Matthew 26:26 to 28) on the cross (Luke 23:34) and as spread abroad by Yehovaw's children, while suffering the unjust transgressions of their enemies, exactly as Yeshuaw did, and then asking Yehovaw to forgive them. (Matthew 6:14; Luke 23:34)

That truth being presented as the merciful and restoring part of Yehovaw's toraw or law (Leviticus 17:11), which will be in force for so long as Heaven and Earth exist (Matthew 5:18), is the message or "gospel of the kingdom of God" (Mark 1:14) that is, so far as I have heard, unique to Yehovaw's Holy Bible and to the prevailing emphasis of this ministry and website!

That "gospel" (Mark 1:14) is "the power of God unto salvation for all who believe"! (Romans 1:16) And, since nobody else is presenting that truth as clearly and accurately with respect to Yehovaw's Holy Bible as I believe this ministry is doing, there is no question possible by which to compromise or terminate this effort to advance Yehovaw's glorious and eternal kingdom of life, blessing, liberty, joy and power! (Deuteronomy 30:19; Matthew 19:17)

Whatever I present on this website necessarily must be written, which leads into another "why" question, which is: Why have I written about and quoted so much that is contained in Yehovaw's Holy Bible, sometimes with aggravating redundancy, when anyone knows that he or she can go straight to the Bible and read all of those things to his or her heart's content?

I am in good company! For that is what Yeshuaw taught, knowing fully well that Yehovaw's holy scriptures of that day were in the hands of His scribes and priests, whose responsibility it was to read those scriptures to the children of Israel! Indeed, Yehovaw commanded, through Moses:

18Therefore shall ye lay up these, my words, in your heart and in your soul, and bind them, for a sign, upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes! 19And ye shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down and when thou risest up! 20Thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house and upon thy gates, 21that your days may be multiplied and the days of your children, in the land that the Lord sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of Heaven upon the Earth! (Deuteronomy 11:18 to 21)

Furthermore, Yehovaw's priest, whom He ordained to "teach My people the difference between the holy and profane and cause them to discern between the clean and the unclean" (Ezekiel 44:23), has the responsibility not only of reading Yehovaw's toraw or law to His children but of teaching them "the sense" of it; He wrote, through His recorder:

They read in the book in the law of God, distinctly, and gave the sense and caused them to understand the reading. (Nehemiah 8:8)

That is an extremely important part of any teaching ministry! For Yehovaw said, through Yeshuaw:

When any one heareth the word of the kingdom and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart! (Matthew 13:19)

To give "the sense" (Nehemiah 8:8) of Yehovaw's toraw or law or cause "them to understand the reading" (Verse 8), one must have "the sense" of it and understand it himself or herself! And that is possible only by the guidance of Yehovaw's "Spirit of Truth" (John 16:13), the supernatural manifestations of Whom one cannot have without keeping or putting the highest possible value on the commandments of Yehovaw's toraw! (John 14:15 to 17)

So in trying to evaluate the truthfulness of the ministry from which one is receiving such teaching, he or she must look to see whether or not the teacher is keeping or putting the highest possible value on the commandments of Yehovaw's toraw or law! For, if he or she is not doing what he or she is teaching, he or she has fallen into the trap of "the scribes and the Pharisees" (Matthew 23:2 and 3), of whom Yeshuaw said:

Woe, unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves neither suffer ye them who are entering to go in. (Matthew 23:13)

Woe, unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye compass sea and land, to make one proselyte! And, when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of Hell than yourselves! (Matthew 23:15)

I sincerely pray that is not what is happening, here, on this website! Whatever rightesousness exists in this fellowship is now being broadcast in cyberspace! Yehovaw said, through Yeshuaw:

Call no man your father, upon the Earth! For one is your Father, who is in Heaven! (Matthew 23:9)

Neither be ye called masters! For One is your Master, even Christ! (Matthew 23:10)

But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant! (Matthew 23:11)

Yehovaw wrote, through His apostle:

My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation! (James 3:1)

In both of the above passages the word "masters" is a King James translation of a word meaning "a guide, that is, (figuratively) a teacher"! (Strong: Greek: 2519) And the one who presumes to teach is not to be called a master (Matthew 23:10) or be one of "many masters" (James 3:1) but, rather a "servant"! (Matthew 23:11)

Interestingly, even ha Kodesh Ruakh, Yehovaw's Holy Spirit, does not guide His children in His own right! Yehovaw explained, through Yeshuaw:

He shall not speak of Himself! But whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak! (John 16:13)

Yeshuaw said, of ha Kodesh Ruakh:

All things that the Father hath are Mine! Therefore said I, that He shall take of Mine and shall show it unto you! (John 16:15)

Whatever is taught by a servant of Yehovaw is by the guidance of Yehovaw's "Spirit of Truth" (John 16:13), Who takes that truth from Yeshuaw, who got it from Yehovaw the Father! Any other source of information by which to live will lead one straight into the pit of Hell!

To Yehovaw be all the praise and the glory for whatever on this website may be pleasing in His sight and truly helpful in advancing His glorious and eternal kingdom of life, blessing, liberty, joy and power! (Deuteronomy 30:19; Matthew 19:17)

As the eighty-year-old elder of my family (as of January 3 of 2009), I am semi-Alsheimer's, in my forgetfulness, and lacking in the energy or even the calling by which to pastor a land-based church in my community!

But let me get behind my keyboard! And by ha Kodesh Ruakh's moving upon me, the words and the appropriate scriptures flow like a river! As they say, "Come on in! The water's fine!" Yehovaw said, through Yeshuaw, to the Samaritan Woman at Jacob's Well:

If thou knewest the gift of God and who it is who saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked of Him; and He would have given thee living water. (John 4:10)

13Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again! 14But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be, in him, a well of water springing up into everlasting life! (John 4:13 and 14)

Has the daily news channel, the violence ridden dramas or your own circumstances left you high and dry?

Drink up; bathe in; yes, "honor His law"! This website is for you!

Amen! Alleluia!
