YAHSHUA OUR MESSIAH YAHWEH (Part 2 of 2)
by  Rabbi Moshe Joseph Koniuchowsky
LOOK ALIKES
What is exciting and yet fully understandable is the fact that the Son/Word, looks exactly like the Father, not just in thought and in 
agreement but in actual appearance to mankind. Rev. 1:12-16 confirms this fact, since it is an identical description of the Son of Man, 
(Ben Adam) found in Daniel in chapter 7:9-10. Not only that! In both heavenly visions in Daniel 7:9-14 and Revelation 5:1, both the Father 
and the Son are seen interacting together and both looked the same in Daniel as they do in Revelation! So we see that both the Father and 
Son existed both before and after Bethlehem! Both the Father and the Son work together, with the Father as the Grand Designer and the Son 
as the actual Creator, as seen in Genesis 1:26. In Genesis 3:23 the Father and the Son are seen conversing in full agreement, that Eden 
must be lost via closure to unregenerate man. Genesis 11:6-7 once again displays this supernatural teamwork.
Messiah Yahshua was, is and always will be the exact image of the invisible Father. He taught us that when you see Him, you do in fact 
see the Father (John 14:9). The Father's glory and light is found shining on the face of His Son Yahshua (2nd Cor.4: 4, John 14:9). 
Hebrews 1:3 states that Yahshua is the "exact representation of His substance". In 1st Cor.15: 47 we find Rav Shaul in some of Scripture's 
clearest language, calling Messiah Yahshua his Kurios or Master, the SECOND ADAM FROM HEAVEN! While being manifest as a man, He was 
manifest or brought forth first as Yahweh's Son at His heavenly anointing and coronation and sent down here to inherit both the earth 
and Adam's fallen federal headship. Psalm 49:6-9 teaches that if Yahshua the Messiah were not also Yahweh, not as person #2 but as 
Yahweh's Word come in the flesh, that mankind could never be saved and redeemed. According to verse 7 of Psalm 49: "a brother [or another 
mere human] CANNOT REDEEM ANYONE AT ALL!" If Yahshua is not Yahweh, but a mere man, we would still be looking for our Savior. Psalm 49:8 
goes on to say that the redemption, when it does come, will be precious and costly as a one-time event. So we see that Yahshua/Word 
of Yahweh did come, not merely as an older human brother but as Yahweh's Son, to pay the price of redemption. That has caused all 
other attempts at redemption to be futile and to inevitably cease through failure!
Job confessed his faith in the pre-existence of His Savior Yahshua by confessing that "I know that my Redeemer lives [brought forth] and at 
the last day [He] shall stand upon the earth [be begotten]." Job understood that prior to coming to this earth, the Redeemer existed as 
Yahweh's eternal Redeemer, ordained by Destiny to come to our earth. Galatians 4:4 outlines this excellent truth. In the fullness of times, 
or when the time came to create time, Yahweh's Son was sent forth from Yahweh as Yahweh, later to be born of a woman and thus be able to 
stand on the earth, born under the righteous covering of Torah, to redeem those already obeying the righteous covering of Torah, i.e. 
Israel and those like Job! Notice the sequence of events outlined in this verse. Brought forth then born in the womb!
CLOSING THOUGHTS ON THE FALLACIOUS TRINITY
The word Elohim in and by itself does not prove three persons of a trinity. Words such as mayim, shamamyim, panaim, (water, heaven, face) 
are all-plural in construction only, not in usage. When applied to Yahweh, the word Elohim is used only with singular verb constructions 
such as: is, created, said, etc. The following individual false gods along with Yahweh are all called Elohim. That does not make these gods 
a trinity of persons. Baalberith in Jud. 8:33, Chemosh in Jud. 11:24, Dagon in Jud. 16:23, Ashteroth in 1st Kings 11:5, Balzebub in 2nd 
Kings 1:2-3, Nisroch in 2 Kings 19:37, along with the single golden calf of Exodus 32:1-31, are all called Elohim! All these single gods 
are referred to as Elohim. Is anyone prepared to argue that these individual gods are really three personages or gods in one bush or 
totem pole? So you and I should not think it strange for Yahweh to be referred to as Elohim. Elohim simply means the Father, the Word/Son 
and His Power/Spirit are all ONE Elohim! Asheteroth is a female singular identity deity yet despite the feminine name, is called 
Elohim by the bible a clear male PLURAL common noun. [http://www.3ns.sympatico.ca] 
Genesis 32:24-28 says that Elohim wrestled with Jacob, yet only one singular being was there! In Exodus 7:1 Moses is called Elohim. Does 
that mean that Moses was really three persons living in the Vatican? Elohim is called our Father (singular) in Malachi 2:10, not our 3 
persons in one Father!! According to Smith's Bible Dictionary the idea that Elohim refers to a plurality OF PERSONS in the Godhead, "hardly 
finds a supporter among scholars." [http://www.3ns.sympatico.ca] Even John Calvin a faithful Trinitarian until his death, admitted that "one 
could not support a Trinitarian view based on anything in the Hebrew texts." ibid
The only two Scriptures used in favor of the Trinitarian position in the Greek Brit Chadashsh is 1st John 5:7 in the KJV. Almost all 
scholars have however removed that verse, universally acknowledging it as an added spurious verse, appearing in NONE of the older Majority 
Text manuscripts. ibid This added text reads as follows in the KJV: "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word 
and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." The Scriptures translates this verse as: "Because there are three who bear witness", 
followed by verse 8: "the Spirit, the water and the blood." The NIV and NAS confirm this translation thus indicating that the three who 
bear witness are not persons in heaven but three important witnesses left for us by the Savior Himself as proof of His Sonship, HERE ON THE 
EARTH! As for the other so-called Trinitarian proof text found in Matthew 28:19, many translations do not even include this, since it 
appears to be a late addition perhaps as late as 325 CE. However even if it is in the original texts, there is One Name for one Elohim 
manifest as the Father, Son and Spirit, still not proving any kind of three person invention. Notice that all three manifestations have the 
same Name, thus all three must be manifestations of the identical One personage! Yahweh echad, not three persons, which is polytheism and is 
not the faith of the talmidim (disciples) or of our Messiah Yahshua!
THE MATTHEW SHEM TOV
Perhaps most revealing is the original Hebrew Matthew used by the apostles and the early Jewish believers. Today this gospel is known as 
the Hebrew Shem Tov version and not surprisingly the Trinitarian dogma is not to be found. Matthew's Hebrew Gospel, used by the early 
ante-Nicean Jewish fathers reads in verse 19 of Matthew 28 as follows: "Yahshua drew near and said: "All power [All Mighty] is given to me in 
heaven and earth, go you and teach them to carry out all things I have commanded you forever." That is Torah, which is forever. Maybe if 
Trinitarians would spend more time teaching what Yahshua taught, which is Torah, we wouldn't have to deal with the nefarious flames of 
Trinitarianism! (Hebrew Gospel of Matthew; Mercer Press 1995; George Howard p.151.)
When the Renewed Covenant speaks of Elohim with us, it was not person #2 with us but the whole being of the Word/Son with us. We see that 
Yahweh's full presence was in the Messiah according to 2nd Corinthians 5:19. Second Timothy 3:16 admonishes us that the mystery of the gospel 
is truly great, since the living Creator Yahshua the Almighty, Yahweh's Word, appeared in a body, [as Emanu-El] was vindicated by the 
Ruach [prepared and declared right for His mission] seen by angels before coming to earth, preached among the nations, was believed on 
and taken up BACK into His Father's glory.
