Who is the Church anyway?

    Published by Rob Skiba May 15, 2014 at 5:14 AM Who is the Church? Are we something new? Are we something apart from Israel? Let’s see… Stephen says:   Acts 7:38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us: As you can see, it... read more

10 or 613?

Published by Rob Skiba May 13, 2014 at 2:16 PM When it comes to “keeping the Law” most of my posts really revolve around the 10 Commandments (and the Feasts). Still, time after time, people continue to come at me with the question/accusation, “Well, are you keeping all 613 (alleged) commandments of the Torah?” as if to try and trap me. Look… NO... read more

The Sign Between YHWH And His Bride

Published by Rob Skiba May 16, 2014 at 3:54 PM So, I’ve been thinking about the marriage of Israel and YHWH at Pentecost (the first one at Mt. Sinai), which birthed the Church that is the Bride. What if we thought of the Ten Commandments less as “commandments” and more like wedding vows? Think of them more like your wedding band, which serves as a “sign” to everyone else that... read more

Will you take the Mark of the Beast or the Sign of YHWH?

  Published by Rob Skiba April 30, 2014 at 1:25 PM Most of us are familiar with the Mark of the Beast. But what about the Sign of YHWH? The Scriptures tell us that it is His Feasts, Sabbaths and Commandments:   Exodus 13: 6 Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to Jehovah. 7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and there shall... read more

Chris White debunks the Psalm 83 War

Published by Rob Skiba April 27, 2014 at 3:19 PM   I must say I REALLY like where Chris White is headed with his End Times research. Please take the time to watch this video:      He’s turning “old-school eschatology” upside-down specifically as it pertains to the End Times wars. I believe he’s making a great case for the idea that the perceived wars... read more

First day of the week – or first of the Sabbaths?

Published by Rob Skiba April 24, 2014 at 3:06 PM Before understanding the Feasts of YHWH, I was just as clueless as the next guy concerning the things of God and how His plan/calendar works. I’m still learning and certainly don’t have it all figured out yet. But one thing I have figured out is that someone really started messing with our Bible and CHANGING the Sabbath. We are now in the season... read more

Who goes first, the wheat or the tares?

  Published by Rob Skiba April 18, 2014 at 2:27 PM Who goes first, the wheat or the tares? Consider what Yeshua had to say when He explained this parable in…     Matthew 13: 36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the... read more

Christians won’t go through the Tribulation?

Published by Rob Skiba March 25, 2014 at 4:19 PM Here are a few videos I’d like you to consider watching before you continue to read the rest of this note (please don’t bother responding to this post without watching them first): Concerning the Pre-Trib Rapture: http://www.quest4truth.net/Archived-Shows/quest4truth-episode-17 Concerning Dispensation Theology:... read more

Twisting and distorting Colossians 2:16

Published by Rob Skiba December 24, 2013 at 11:14 PM What is rather humorous/sad is how Christians will try to use Colossians 2:16 as a means to refute what I’ve been saying concerning pagan holidays: Colossians 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: The problem is their context is completely reversed. Verse... read more

The 12 Facebook Days of X-mess

Published by Rob Skiba December 24, 2013 at 4:25 PM Click this link to listen as  you read: http://www.babylonrisingblog.com/mp3/12FacebookX-mess.mp3 In light of the many responses I’ve received to the various anti-Christmas posts I’ve been making over the past two weeks or so, I decided to write a goofy little song to the tune of the 12 Days of Christmas: On the first day of X-mess... read more

Celebrating Christ the King?

December 22, 2013 at 4:19 PM So, Sheila and I were invited to a typical church service this morning to celebrate the baptism of a family member. As you might expect, it was all about Christmas. They sang lots of songs and read Scriptures about “our king” being born to us THIS DAY (of course in reference to December 25th). Some thoughts occurred to me, which made my spirit grieve exceedingly.... read more

Stop Lying Church!

Published by Rob Skiba December 19, 2013 at 2:09 PM Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 1 Cor. 13:6 Therefore, it is in love that I share what I share {CAPPING for emphesis only} concerning this issue. We are to worship God in spirit AND in TRUTH [John 4:24]. This simply can NOT be done while perpetuating and justifying a flat-out lie. Dear Christian, pastor, evangelist, missionary,... read more

Satan Sabotaging the Sabbatōn

Published by Rob Skiba October 15, 2013 at 5:38 AM A while back, I posted a note about the Sabbath, questioning whether or not we (Christians) should keep it. Of course, it stirred up no shortage of controversy and generated (at last count) over 600 responses. The usual arguments against keeping it involves a number of Scriptures about the Apostles meeting “on the first day of the week.” So, I... read more

Paul and the Hebrews 8 Conspiracy

Published by Rob Skiba October 15, 2013 at 1:40 PM As I have come to learn, understand and love the Torah (instructions/law) of YHWH, I have posted many things on my wall about it. Usually, such posts are met with fairly significant opposition. While it can be frustrating at times, I actually rather enjoy the dialogue. It forces myself and others to dig deeper into what it is that we think we believe. In... read more

God’s Plan For You

Published by Rob Skiba October 14, 2013 at 1:03 AM Many people read my wall and they don’t exactly know where I’m coming from. Am I a legalist? What’s the deal with Grace? Can Law and Grace work together, or are they mutually exclusive, with one being replaced by the other? I’m going to try and break it down as simply as I can. It’s really not complicated: John 3:16 For God... read more

Law vs Grace – why all the confusion?

Published by Rob Skiba October 2, 2013 at 1:02 PM Considering all of the controversy concerning some of my recent Facebook posts, I think the following article helps to clear up a few things. This article is from http://www.gotquestions.org/law-vs-grace.html (thanks Marcello!) Question: “Law vs. grace—why is there so much conflict among Christians on the issue?”   Answer: One side says,... read more

We follow Paul’s example

Published by Rob Skiba October 1, 2013 at 4:38 PM Paul preached and he remained Torah observant to the day he died. He followed the example of Yeshua (Jesus) which is why he could say with confidence: “Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.” – 1 Corinthians 11:1 Christ followed and obeyed His Father completely – in every way. If we are to claim to be His followers, should we... read more

To keep the Sabbath or not to keep the Sabbath – that is the question

Published by Rob Skiba September 30, 2013 at 11:33 PM Most Christians would argue that we should not violate the Ten Commandments… or at least 9 of them anyway. I’ve always found it rather interesting how they think all but the 4th Commandment are still in effect. What happened to the Sabbath? Should we still be “remembering” to keep it? Perhaps the most striking evidence for... read more

September 11 – HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!

September 11, 2013 at 12:57 PM For many today, September 11, is a terrible day full of bad memories and the loss of loved ones. How amazingly “coincidental” that the Illuminati would pick a day that should be full of joy and make it into a day of terror. Why joy? Because it was on this day, nearly 2016 years ago, that our Savior was born. Happy Birthday Jesus! The following is from my first... read more

Sheol and the Nicolaitan Church Jesus hates

Published by Rob Skiba June 16, 2013 at 7:31 PM Revelation 2 (ASV): To The Church of Ephesus 1 To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, he that walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks: 2 I know thy works, and thy toil and patience, and that thou canst not bear evil men, and didst try them that call themselves... read more

Did Israel Really Become a Nation in 1948?

Published by Rob Skiba May 12, 2013 at 12:09 AM   If you would have asked me that question 4 years ago, I would have said, “Yes! Absolutely!” and dogmatically defended that position, while simultaneously using it as a “time-piece” for calculating the times we are living in, looking forward to the Rapture. I know many of you are doing that today as well.   Now, I am not so... read more

KJV Perfect? Sorry. Nope. Far from it.

Published by Rob Skiba April 20, 2013 at 1:20 AM There are many out there who are hyper-dogmatic in their belief that the King James Version of the Bible is the ONLY “perfect” version of the Bible – some going so far as to claim that the KJV is the very definition of Scripture, and if you challenge it, you apparently don’t believe in the Bible. That, of course, is quite absurd. But... read more

To sin or not to sin? That is the question.

Published by Rob Skiba February 25, 2013 at 11:04 PM Anyone who follows my wall posts, knows the marathon threads that result from nearly any post I make concerning the Law of YHVH. Some in favor – many all to eager to call me a heretic for daring to suggest that obedience to God might be a good thing. All of the arguments posted by Grace only Law haters come with quotes from Paul. So, I thought... read more

MY POST PAGAN HOLIDAY APPEAL TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY

Published by Rob Skiba December 26, 2012 at 1:52 PM MY POST PAGAN HOLIDAY APPEAL TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY: A lot of people think I’ve gone off the deep end with this anti-Christmas and Easter stuff, and assume I’m becoming a legalistic Judaizer, a hater or some other nonsense like that because we’ve thrown those pagan holidays out of our home. When in reality, we’re simply trying to... read more

Keeping the Commandments and Feasts of God

Published by Rob Skiba August 26, 2012 at 5:03 PM I don’t understand why people are so resistant to keeping the commandments of God: Do you really want to serve false gods? Do you really want to create idols? Do you really want to take the LORD’s name in vain (as in swearing falsely by it)? Do you really want to miss out on the benefits of keeping the (Saturday) Sabbath? Do you really want to... read more
