A Hebrew is a Descendant of the scriptural Patriarch Abraham. He is the first to be called Hebrew (Genesis 14:13). The Most High made a Covenant with Abraham and his seed. The Title Hebrew was passed on from Abraham to his Son Isaac and Isaac son Jacob and to Jacobs 12 sons who became the 12 tribes of Israel. The Israelites were known and called Hebrews mainly by outsiders or foreigners. The name means One who crosses over, or wander. It is also derived from Eber, which means "one who emigrates" and "beyond, on the other side." Abraham and his posterity being called Hebrews in order to express a distinction between the races east and west of the Euphrates. It may also be derived from Heber, one of the ancestors of Abraham (Genesis 10:24) Hebrew is a proper title that is still in use today by the true modern descendants of ancient Israel.
A Israelite is a descendant of the scriptural patriarch Jacob. Jacob was the Grandson of Abraham and the son of Isaac. Jacob had 12 sons these sons were the progenitors of the 12 tribes of Israel. Jacob name was changed to Israel (Yisrael) in Genesis 32:28 and his descendants were called Israelites which denotes they are The children of Jacob or The Children of Israel. The Suffix ITE means a descent from, ISRAEL-ITE means a descendant of our father Jacob who's name was changed to Israel.
The Hebrew Israelites are the modern descendants of the ancient Israelites. The Hebrew Israelites have been scattered to the four corners of the earth. They reside in all lands among all people, they are suffering from the curses that are found in the law books of Leviticus chapter 26 and Deuteronomy chapter 28. Today they are known by the bywords and proverbs of "BLACKS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, AFRO AMERICANS, NEGROES, NIGGERS, ETC. The Hebrew Israelites are the true descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They are the priest of the Most High
A Jew is a person who practice the religion of Judaism. Jew does not mean a descendant of ancient Israel. The ancient Hebrews were not called Jews, that is a mistranslation, Jew is not a Hebrew Word, it's english. Jew is a word that was created by Gentiles and given to the Israelite tribe of Yahudah (Judah). Yah the Most High didn't give his people the name of Jew, this was done by men. Jew is not in the 1611 KJV of the bible. The ancient Hebrew Israelites were not Jews neither are their descendants. But if you practice the religion of Judaism or subscribe to the Jewish culture or traditions, then you can be called a Jew.
NO, the majority of Israelites don't practice Judaism. Judaism is not of the scriptures. Judaism is a religion created by the people known as Jews. In the scriptures no matter what translation you use, you will not find the word Judaism mention. Yah didn't give Israel a religion called Judaism, he gave us his Laws, Statues, Commandments,& Judgments and told us to obey them. Once we as Israelites are redirected to our mighty one. We follow the direction he has laid out for us in scripture. Jews will be the first to admit that Judaism is not of the scripture it's from their Rabbi's, that's why it's known as Rabbinic Judaism, which consists of several branches. ORTHODOX REFORM CONSERVATION HASIDIC We are not Jews so we don't follow Judaism.
YES AND NO, Israelites have been split on this question for centuries. Israel was split on this question when the Messiah walked the earth. Today you have some of Israel that don't believe in the Messiah, they don't believe that the one written about in the scriptural book called the New Testament is the promised Messiah. Then you have some that don't believe the messiah has come and they don't believe one is coming. Then you have Israelites that do believe in a Messiah, They believe the one written about in the so called New Testament who's true name is Yahshuah Ben Yah (Yahshuah the son of Yah) is the Hebrew Messiah. Some of Israel do believe in the Messiah and some don't. Even among the ones who don't there exist a slight separation of what they believe about the messiah, this can also be found among the ones who do believe. There isn't one universal belief about the Messiah among Hebrew Israelites. Well not yet.
A true Israelite is not a hate preacher or racist. That would be going against the words of the Creator. Israel can't be a hate filled people, our whole duty for being chosen is to take the word of the Most High to all the nations on the earth, so they can get salvation. In fact in a short time many of us will lose our lives trying to complete this task. By us coming to you trying to install the truth in you, so your soul can be accounted worthy, is LOVE. If we were hate filled or hate preacher we would just sit back and watch you perish in your sins. You can not be a servant of the Most High and Hate those whom he has called you to teach. The Hebrew Scriptures are not about Hate, any true Hebrew who loves the scripture, Yah and Yah's people do not practice any form of Hate teachings. A true Israelite teach the uncut word of Yah, He teaches the truth of scripture.
NO. Once again a True Hebrew doesn't hate men for the sake of hating or because of skin color. Hebrews teach again the doctrinal lies that exist in those religions (Christianity, Judaism and Islam). But we don't hate the people we hate the lies. All Lies come from the mouth of the adversary Satan, he is the father of lies. John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Yah the Most High has provide in scripture the only Identifying mark to tell who the true Israelites are in the latter days. He didn't say because you have a certain size nose, or a certain head shape this makes you an Israelite. No The Most High said the Curses found in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28 are the Identifying mark. Whatever people are suffering the curses in their entirety are the true Israelites. This site has proven that the so called black man and woman of the western hemisphere who got to this part of the world as captives in the bottom of slave ships. Fit the full scriptural description of Israel, any other people who are claiming Israelite heritage must fit the full description of Israel in the latter days. The living condition of THE JEWS, INDIANS, ARABS,& EUROPEANS ETC. must resemble the so called Black people of the west. Read our page called Characteristic of Israel.
Of course you are still Hebrew, the Majority of our blood remains Hebrew. As was just explained in the question above, the curses are the dividing factor in determining what people / nations are Israelites. The scriptures give a strong indication that whomever is born through the seed of an Israelite man or through the womb of an Israelite woman is an Israelite. Example , when our sisters were on the plantations being raped by Gentile slave masters what happen to those children that were born to them.? They were thrown out into the field to suffer the curses just as the rest of Israel. They were not put on high to live as Gentiles. Remember Yah is not the author of confusion he said the curses are for the Israelite descendants only Deut 28:46, 45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Yah your holy one, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee: 46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon Your seed (descendants) for ever. History Proves those children born between Hebrew woman and Gentile slave masters suffered the same fate as the rest of Israel. They were lynched, taken away from their mothers and given to another people etc etc. This is the sign that they were Israelites, the curses are for a sign and wonder. By those children coming through the womb of an Israelite woman made them Israel, just as it did for Yahshuah. Israel is a special seed, if an Israelite man fathers a child, that child is an Israelite, if an Hebrew woman have a child by an Gentile that child is still an Israelite. We have proof of that today, how many "bi-racial" people (Hebrew and Gentile) have you seen identify themselves as white? Not many, most of them look Hebrews in Physical Appearance, and this is who they are identified with. They are still considered to be Hebrew. Ezekiel 47:21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel. 22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. As was stated the majority of our blood is Hebrew, we as group on average have 80-90% Israelite genes. Hebrew Genes carry the dominate traits, Gentiles genes are recessive. Think on this for a moment. How is it possible for 10-20% of recessive genes to outweigh 80-90% of the dominate genes? It can't happen. Think about this also lets say BILL CLINTON, BILL GATES, GEORGE BUSH SR AND JR, TOM CRUISE ETC ALL HAVE A BLACK ANCESTOR WHO WAS A SLAVE. But the majority of their ancestors are not Hebrews but Europeans, they may have 97% gentile blood in their veins, which would make them gentiles as we can see from their outward appearance. Would you call or consider BILL CLINTON, BILL GATES, GEORGE BUSH SR AND JR, TOM CRUISE HEBREWS OR BLACK MEN. NO, but more importantly are they or their people suffering from the curses in Lev 26 and Deut 28: the answer to that is NO. So they wouldn't be considered Israelites. REMEMBER THE CURSES ARE FOR ISRAELITES ONLY. ISRAEL MUST SUFFER THESE CURSES AS A NATION OF PEOPLE, JUST AS WE ARE. IF WE ARE NOT THE DESCENDANTS OF ISRAEL BECAUSE OF A LITTLE MIX BLOOD.....THEN WE SHOULDN'T BE IN THIS DOWN TRODDEN STATE JUST AS SCRIPTURE SAYS ISRAEL WOULD BE. IF WE ARE GENTILES BECAUSE WE HAVE A LITTLE GENTILE BLOOD, THEN WHY AREN'T WE LIVING AND BEING TREATED AS GOOD AS THEY ARE?, Deut 28:46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon Your seed (descendants) for ever. Don't forget Israel entered Egypt 70 in number, they sojoured in that land among the black egyptians for 430 years. By the time of the Exodus, there were well over a million Israelites leaving Egypt. How did they get such a large population, the answer is simple, they mixed with the Egyptians.
NO All black skinned people are not Israelites. Israel is just one black nation that exist among many. The Egyptians, Canaanites, Ethiopians, babyloians etc were black skinned but they were not Israelites. We have never made that Statement on this site, we have said that the black people in the west are Israelites because we fall under the curses. There are Israelites throughout the continents of Africa and Asia. To say all black skinned people are Israelites is like saying all Asians are Chinese, or All Europeans are French. You would never consider that, it's the same for Israel, Only those who suffer the curses are Israelites. Israelite doctrine, and this Israelite movement is not a black nationalist, or Afro centric Movement. This is a movement of Truth, Justice, Righteousness, Salvation and Eternal life in the Kingdom of Yah.
Many ministers are afraid of the truth, many of them know this truth but make a conscious decision not to tell it. They are afraid of what would happen to their congregations if they teach the people whom they are. Many Israelites don't want to know the truth, they would rather sit back and continue to live a lie. To come back to Yah by excepting the truth that we are Israel, will cause us to give up some things in our life that is connected to this satanic inspired world. We have to give up fornication, Pork, shrimps, catfish and the rest of the unclean foods, we have to rest on the Sabbath, give up Christmas, New years, etc etc. Many ministers know their congregation will leave if they have to change their life style. If the congregational members leave so does the church money and the minister lavish life style. A lot of "Black" Ministers are Satanist they are the ministers of Satan. He uses them to Keep Israel Ignorant to the truth. What I see coming real soon is many of those ministers are going to have to speak the truth no matter what happens. There are others that just don't know the truth, if the minister don't know how can the congregation know? We all need to keep them in our prayers and hope Yah has mercy on their souls.
There is no such creature in Scripture as spiritual Israelites. All Men, Women and Children who join themselves to the House of Israel and take hold of the covenant will become Israelites not spiritual Israelites. Spiritual Israelites is not scriptural. If you are a natural born Israelite, you must come back to Yah and His law by excepting the Messiah. You are either an Israelite (by birth or by joining onto Israel) or not.
Sin is the transgression (breaking) of the law, it is a direct offence against YHWH and His Torah.. The laws of Yah can be found in the first five books of scripture which are known as the Torah or Instructions. They are also known as the books of Moses, because Moses with instruction from Yah taught the Israelites the Laws. The law includes the 10 commandments, Dietary Law, etc. The first five books of Torah or law are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy
NO. Absolutely NOT Proof being from our above question which shows us from scripture what sin is. If their is no law then their can be no sin. IF there is no sin then there can be no judgment. The laws are what deem men righteous or wicked. No where in scripture are the laws done away with, Yah never done away with the laws. You have no truth or righteousness if you don't have the laws of Yah. You can't become wise without the laws of Yah. Psalms 119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth. 151 Thou art near, O Yah; and all thy commandments are truth. 171 My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes. 172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness. 173 Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts. 174 I have longed for thy salvation, O Yah; and thy law is my delight. Without the laws and Commandments of Yah, you have no Truth, Righteousness or love for the most high. You are a sinner, the wages of sin is death. The laws are what made our father Abraham righteous and made our King Solomon wise. Genesis 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws. Deuteronomy 4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as Yah my Holy one commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it. 6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. 7 For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as Yah is in all things that we call upon him for? 8 And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? To you Christians the New Testament didn't change any of this, the law was good yesterday and it is still good today.

NO, THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR YOU TO CONTINUE TO WALK IN IGNORANCE AFTER YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE TRUTH. If you continue to call on the name of a pagan G_d, that's what Je/s_s is he is the Pagan G_d of the Pagan Religion called Christianity. The scripture clearly lets us know that after we receive the knowledge of the truth and we continue to sin, there remains no more sacrifice for our sins. To answer the question if you can still use the name of Je/s_s even if the father knows your heart. NO you can not use that name after you understand it is false. If you are truly seeking truth the father will guide you, he will show you the lie and it's up to you to accept or reject it. If you reject the truth the father knows your heart is full of deceit. He knows all of our hearts, he knows who will accept and who will reject. Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
YES the salvation of the world will depend on them knowing who true Israel is. It is prophesy in scripture that the entire world will not only know who we are but look to us to teach them about Yah. Zep 3:19 Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame. 20 At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith YAH. Zec 8:23 Thus saith YAH of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is an Israelite, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that YAH is with you.
