Lv 4

Are we being tested, (proved, tempted) by OUR FATHER, or, is scripture saying YHWH, the God of Israel, wrongly being worshipped as our God?

James 1:12, Blessed is the man who endures trial, when under trial (being proved, tested, tempted, to sin) let no man say he is being tested by God? For God himself tempts (proves, tests, tempts) no one? It goes on to explain that God does not put us to tests, to prove us, but our desires cause us to test ourselves? So, if God does not test us, put circumstances in our life that cause us to respond Godly, or, Godless, why do the Muslims, Jews, Catholics, Mormons, and Christians, call the God of Israel, the Father, God, of Jesus? For in Exodus 20:20, Moses told the Israelites that YHWH is come to "test" use, so that you fear Him, and do not sin?

We all know that Abram choose to worship YHWH as his God and "darkness" overcame him, and he was changed, and YHWH called him A bra "ham?" At Gn 9:22, "Ham" is the Father of Canaan, and cursed in v27? Abram`s, name was changed to a curse, A bra"ham" and he was a sinner in YHWH`s, "eye!" Is 43:27, "Your first father sinned." Jn. 8:39,"Abraham is our father." Lk.16:23,"And "in He'll" he was with Abraham!" Gn.20:3, "God, not the LORD, saved the King Abimelech, from sinning because of "a lie" Abraham said to him (who claims his God is God, and spoke to him). Abimelech, who was saved by God o from Abraham's lie, in Gn 21:23, feared Abraham as an "evil threat" to him, and his children?

In Gn.14:17, YHWH, like the Devil in the wilderness with Jesus, "lied?" " if you worship me, I will give the I land of Canaan "TO YOU?"

Is YHWH the true God?

    YHWH, the LORD of the old testament is the false christ as Jesus told you in John 4:20-22 and John 6:32-38.

    Rev 13:11-17 is talking about the things Moses did, and Rev 13:18 is talking about the Gold that Solomon used to build the Temple and Throne of Satan as revealed in 1chron 10:14

    Six hundred threescore and six talents.

    Read Exodus 20:21 and John 3:19 and as an added benefit read Luke 9:54-56 and John 3:16-17 pay attention to the word "Everlasting Life" and the fact that Elijah "destroyed the lives of men with fire from the sky, the same as the God of Moses did.

    Only those souls that have overcome satan and the 'second death' which is death of the soul, through Jesus Christ---as their Savior and Lord, will be in the third earth age of eternity. Revelation 20 KJV

    There is no other way to do so. None. Face it.

    Mormons believe that YHWH is the premortal Jesus, and not God Almighty. In Exodus 20:20, it is Elohim that spoke from heaven with a loud noise that frightened the Israelites, to test them to see if they would then start listening and start being obedient. A soft voice wasn't working, so Elohim tried talking in a sterner voice. He certainly wasn't trying to tempt them to do evil.

    Abraham means "Exalted Father", so it is hardly a curse. http://biblehub.com/hebrew/85.htm

    Abraham was also tested by Elohim, to see if he would do everything that God asked of him. Gen 22

    In Luke 16:23, Lazarus is in Hades, which is the place where all spirits go upon death of the mortal body. The rich man is also in Hades, but in a specific part of Hades. He is in Tartarus, which is the pit reserved for the wicked. Although he could see and talk to Lazarus, there was a great gulf fixed between them. It is better to read this in the Greek; in English there are too many different words translated as "hell".

    Abraham was commanded to lie to the Egyptians by the lord.

    "22 And it came to pass when I was come near to enter into Egypt, the Lord said unto me: Behold, Sarai, thy wife, is a very fair woman to look upon;

    23 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see her, they will say—She is his wife; and they will kill you, but they will save her alive; therefore see that ye do on this wise:

    24 Let her say unto the Egyptians, she is thy sister, and thy soul shall live.

    25 And it came to pass that I, Abraham, told Sarai, my wife, all that the Lord had said unto me—Therefore say unto them, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may be well with me for thy sake, and my soul shall live because of thee."

    Abraham 2

    Lest you complain that Joseph Smith's interpretation of the Book of Abraham is faulty, let me quote another source, the Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan

    "And Sarah his wife was with him, and she was good looking. So Abraham said to her "Say not 'I am Abraham's wife', lest they kill me, and take thee from me. But say 'I am his sister'"

    In Genesis 14, the Lord reminds Abraham, that it was he who led Abraham to his current home, and that Abraham would have a son, and that he would have numerous posterity, all because of his righteousness.

    I think you are completely out of gas.

    You, like Job's 'friends', have left out satan. satan is the accuser and God allows satan to test souls in this world age because God has shown The Way to overcome the testing for 'whosoever believeth in Him'. God warned about satan's battle against God's plan of salvation in Genesis 3:15 KJV. God also paid a very great price through Jesus Christ to freely extend the offer of salvation that was not available at the time of Job. (John 3:14-21 KJV)

    Job's 'friends' spent many chapters wrongly blaming God and blaming Job, when it was satan who caused the problems. Job 1 KJV God allowed it because He had faith that Job would not blame God. Job 1:8 KJV And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect (spiritually mature) and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?

    Job 42:7 KJV And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. 8 Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job. 9 So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went, and did according as the LORD commanded them: the LORD also accepted Job. 10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

    Jeremiah 23:33 KJV And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying , What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the LORD. 34 And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house. 35 Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and, What hath the LORD spoken ? 36 And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God. 37 Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and, What hath the LORD spoken? 38 But since ye say, The burden of the LORD; therefore thus saith the LORD; Because ye say this word, The burden of the LORD, and I have sent unto you, saying , Ye shall not say, The burden of the LORD; 39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence: 40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
