"My beloved, while I take all pains to write to you of our common life, it is needful for me to write to you, encouraging you to maintain a conflict for the faith which was once delivered to the Set Apart believers."
Yehudah 1:3 A.E.N.T.
Introduction
The history of the Netzarim (Nazarenes) dates to the days of Mashiyach Y'shua’s (Christians refer to Him as Jesus) ministry on earth. Y'shua was Himself called a Nasraya. Yochanan (John) 18:5, "They said to him, "Y'shua the Nasraya. Y'shua said to them, 'I am he'." Andrew Roth's footnote says, "Y'shua is Mashiyach; the 'Netzer' of Yesha'yahu/Isaiah 11..." On page 905 in the appendixes of the AENT Roth goes on to say, "The Netzarim designation clearly implies the 'Tree of Life" which serves as a reminder of the Eternal Kingdom that was offered to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The term netzer (sprout or branch) is also the root word for the City of the Branch, Netzeret (Nazareth)... The designation of 'Nasraya' serves as a reminder for all his followers, not that he dwelled in Netzeret but that his 'dwelling' (the Spirit of Mashiyach) is within his people." (see also Matt. 2:23; 26:71; Mark 1:24; 10:47; 14:67; Luke 4:34; Romans 11:16).
Christians around the world observe the Friday before Easter as "Good Friday", the day they believe Messiah was crucified. But does the Ketuviim Netzarim (Writings of the Nazarenes, Christian term: New Testament) really teach that Messiah was crucified on a Friday and resurrected on a Sunday? "IF" Messiah was crucified on the 6th day (Friday) of the week, then Messiah would have lied about the only "sign" that would be given. So, did Messiah lie or has Christian "doctrine" twisted the scriptures to fit into a pagan holy day?

There have been numerous sermons and books on "The Mark of the Beast". But doesn’t YHWH have a mark? Shockingly, I have yet to find a Christian teaching on the mark of YHWH.
This age old question has perplexed mankind throughout the centuries. A similar question has stumped mankind for hundreds of years but it is far easier to answer than the “chicken or the egg” question. It is, “Which came first, the Greek or the Aramaic?” Well, the proof is out there if we would only open our eyes and read it.
