I would inquire as to your belief in the trinity? Do you believe there is one God in 3 persons?

Did Jesus keep the sabbath? If so, on what day?

I watched your video/teaching on the real location of the Temple Mount part 1. Very good but when you used your red light pointer with slides it did nor show where you were talking about. Would be easier to follow if it did. Especially for us who are not familiar with the area you are talking about. I’m wondering if it’s corrected on the dvds you have for sale.
God bless you and your important work for these days.

I was wondering what you call yourselves ie you have Christian's etc.

I suppose Messianic is an apt description as we follow Messiah, We do not identify with a lot of their traditions though. Hebrew Roots is ok, but again, we have been around long before Hebrew Roots came on the scene.

We have been called Sacred name followers, Yahwists, Followers of the way etc... Honestly, it is hard to nail it down exactly because we are not really keen on any of the labels. We follow the Messiah Yahshua and His Father Yahweh.

I don't think I really answered your question, sorry about that.

So appreciate you all taking the time to film a Sabbath gathering for all of us on-line. These are truly end times. Will you be doing any teachings on this subject?
Thankyou

how old do you have to be to be call an elder
Admin Reply by: YRM
To be considered for Deacon we ask that you be with YRM for 5 years. and an Elder would be 10 years. While scripture doesn't give an exact age or time frame for determining elders, Scripture does say for us to "test" the candidates for elder.

1 Timothy 3:10 They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons

So it is left up to the discretion of the leadership how long they are to wait to make elders and deacons.

Shalom, I thank and praise Yahweh for YRM, Elder Alan Mansanger so grateful to you for the 40+ journey that lead to the YRM group that exists today. I have been streaming the online videos of the live Sabbath services on 6th day even (Friday night), also on Sabbath Day before and after the live broadcasts, and they have been like answered prayers. I am writing because I just listened to the recording of January 4, 2020's sermon given by brother Lucas. It really caused me to look deeply into YRM, wow you talk about laborers in the field! Over the past couple years that I have been watching, I saw Brother Hosea being Moderator, even on the "coronavirus - social distance" Sabbath service 03/21/2020) then I've listened to him gives messages to the Congregation ! and Brother Jevon Love playing the bass guitar, and other roles on this same "coronavirus - social distancing" Sabbath day service mentioned above, I listened to him also giving messages to the Congregation as well ! The musicians / band ! the young one playing multiply instruments ! and singing in groups or holding their own in Solo's, talk about cross-training ! wow
Thank you for the chosen few that 'fed the masses' on 03 21 2020. I had a chuckle with Hosea once when he remarked how he remembered you Elder, participating in the band and the choir, this sounds like a long-standing relationship among the brethren, that is awesome !

The videography, sound effects, the beautiful decor of the Assembly the cinematography of 'Discovering the Truth' and 'Drive By Moments'. So thankful to Yah for the Sukkot celebration from the videos of the remodel right through to the sermon right after the Feast when I heard the comment "OK satan you can stop now we got through the Feast" 🙂 When a lot of the electrical system was overworked. I really felt connected during this time, I feel sure Yahweh was well pleased with this Work.
Thank you and the YRM team Bible Study group you Elder, Jevon, Hosea, Randy R., Randy D. and the other brothers and sisters who participate in the Bible Study service.
I was so touched by the sermon given by Brother Lucas on the mentioned date "Have the Courage to Encourage" being reminded that Yahweh is always in charge regardless, and we should not perpetuate negativity by continually discussing hard times to each other. The BIG one the responsibility of the elders and leaders when looking at all the things they have to handle, so many times I heard admonishment for those "willing to be arrows" these words have to be super encouraging. Brother Lucas also expressed "Unisom:" among the congregation wow what a way to live ! Brother Lucas talked about being thankful, for the mercies of Yahweh, our basics food, clothing and shelter, and a great blessing YRM in Holts Summit Missouri, I have seen the requests, 'is there one in our area?' or 'is there one near here? ' So thank be to Yahweh, now I am not a 'man pleaser' nor a 'man worshipper' ( except Yahshua our GREAT MESSIYAH) for you Elder Alan Mansanger for your faith and endurance over these many decades, for answering the sound of the Shofar and starting to travel the straight and narrow pathway, prayerfully may it be Yahweh's Will that you keep your eyes on the prize and finish this course in Yahweh.
"Let he that is the greatest among you serve" You must be a great man Elder Alan Mansanger, I pray that Yahweh continue to bless your work in Yahshua The Messiyah.

Why do you lie about the Catholic Church to present your agenda?
I’ve seen your ads and they are a lie. Your claims about Constantine’s influence over the Church, and how “sol invictus” is all about Christmas are easily dismissed as fiction, if one cares to research.
Saint Justin Martyr explained the Sunday worship traditions of Catholic Christians in 187 AD, long before Constantine. Did you know Constantine did not convert until he was on his deathbed? Rather, it was his Mom, Saint Helen, who in her 70s went to the Holy Land to find and protect the holy sites of the Church and built Churches to remember them forever.
What is true is found in MT 16:16-20. Here Jesus starts ONE Church, empowers ONE leader with the power and Authority (keys to the kingdom) to lead that Church, and makes a promise that this Church will never be defeated by Satan.
Your claims contradict Jesus. You are doing the work of the devil. You lie.
You say it is not your place to judge? Then why are you judging Catholicism as false when it was begun by Jesus himself and replacing it with your man-made version?
You call Catholic worship “man-made traditions” yet these traditions (rituals) were put into practice by the guys with the Authority from Christ (the keys) to do so. You have zero Authority from anyone except yourselves.
You are just another protestor version of a church, one of thousands, made by men with a “better idea”.
The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ, instituted by him. It is an organism, not an organization. We are his eyes, ears, hands, feet and heart of Jesus on earth, trying to do his will. And today, the Catholic Church will feed more people, clothe more poor, educate more kids, care for more of the sick and dying than any other outfit on earth. Yes, we are a field hospital for sinners, and we have had plenty of sinful and flawed people in our ranks. Yet that does not take anything away from HIS Church and HIS promise.

"Your claims about Constantine’s influence over the Church, and how “sol invictus” is all about Christmas are easily dismissed as fiction, if one cares to research."

Such simple research should be easy for you to find and provide then.

"Saint Justin Martyr explained the Sunday worship traditions of Catholic Christians in 187 AD, long before Constantine."

We understand that Constantine did not invent Sunday worship, He did however, make it the official day of rest for Rome and it was He who was responsible for Sunday gaining as much influence as it has today. If Sunday was the norm for believers why is it that 300 years after the Messiah there were still people keeping the Sabbath? Didn’t they get the memo? aren’t those the same people who were following the Messiah? How is that not significant? Were they wrong?

"Did you know Constantine did not convert until he was on his deathbed? Rather, it was his Mom, Saint Helen, who in her 70s went to the Holy Land to find and protect the holy sites of the Church and built Churches to remember them forever."

Holy sites of the church that have absolutely no basis in scripture. For example the Church of the Holy Sepulcher was only traditionally recognized after the 4th century.(Key word traditionally) The "True Cross" as they call it is another example of tradition trumping truth. You can find "pieces" of this "Relic" all over the place, how can one prove these traditions true? And if one cannot prove a tradition true, why should we bother observing it? What value is their in recognizing something like that? There are dozens of doctrines and traditions kept by the Church that are in the same situation as these examples.

Concerning Mat 16:16-20. upon this rock - In Yahshua's word play, Peter means, "a little stone" Petros, while the immovable foundation rock on which He would build His assembly is petra, meaning Himself (1Cor. 3:11). Peter was not infallible (16:23, Gal. 2:11), and was not mentioned by Yahshua as the greatest disciple (18:1-4).

keys of...kingdom of heaven - When a man was appointed as a doctor of the law, the Jews would provide him with a key to the closet that stored the Torah. This key represented the authority to teach and explain Yahweh's Word. In like manner, Yahshua here is delegating authority to Peter to teach and govern the assembly through the inspired Scriptures. Similar authority was also delegated to the other Apostles (Matt. 10:7; 28:19-20; Gal. 1:12).

bind on earth shall be bound in heaven - This would be better rendered, whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be already bound in heaven. Peter here is not granted authority to add to or remove from the Law (Deut. 8:3; Rev. 22:18-19), simply to convey and discern by that which was previously established. The same thing was said to the other disciples (18:1, 18). The passage is rendered in the New American Standard Bible as, "And whatever you shall bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you shall loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven." Another version translates it: "And whatever you forbid on earth must be what is already forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth must be what is already permitted in heaven," The New Testament: A Translation in the Language of the People.

"Your claims contradict Jesus. You are doing the work of the devil. You lie.
You say it is not your place to judge? Then why are you judging Catholicism as false when it was begun by Jesus himself and replacing it with your man-made version?"

Our claims are directly out of scripture, you say we are doing the devils work, yet we are simply following the word of the Father.

Can you show me a single example of one of our doctrines being "Man made" as we have scriptural backing for everything we do. Not vain traditions that have no real bearing on the truth.

"You call Catholic worship “man-made traditions” yet these traditions (rituals) were put into practice by the guys with the Authority from Christ (the keys) to do so. You have zero Authority from anyone except yourselves."

No, they weren't, these traditions were put in place by several men over hundreds of years and most of which abuse the "authority" they claim in order to advance their own agenda and in some cases politics.

If we are following the Sabbath, Keeping the feasts and using Yahweh's name who's “Rituals” are observing? Who authority do we need to Keep the Sabbath? Or the Feasts? Or eat clean food?

There are countless examples of the Catholic Church straight up re-writing the word of the Father. We do not care what authority you claim, if that authority means we ignore the Word of the Creator we are all striving to please, we are not going to entertain it.

Mark 7:5-9 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

He answered and said unto them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

For laying aside the commandment of Elohim, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of Elohim, that ye may keep your own tradition.

How is the Church ANY different from the Pharisees in this situation? The Pharisee's were adding to the word with their traditions and rituals, How is the Church any different? They throw out the commandments of Yahweh but cling desperately to "Rituals" as you call them, all calming to be done in the name of the Father.

Matt 15:7-9 Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

The fact that the Church can sit back in their gold covered shrines filled with idols and talk about saint's like they are discussing their favorite superhero while eating a ham sandwich on a Sunday and then reach out and accuse us not following the word and inventing our own doctrine is truly ironic.

You talk about our claims contradicting Messiah yet we are only trying to live our lives as he did, which is exactly what we are told to do. 1 John 2:6.

We pray you study with an open mind. The Church is filled with good people I am sure, but we are not willing to bet our salvation on it. We will continue to live as Messiah did, in complete obedience with His Father's Commands.

Good morning! Why do you believe that you have found the truth, and what happens to the 1700 years of Christians until the 'Yahwehs Restoration Ministry?'

Why in the USofA are there soooo many different religions based on Jesus of Nazareth, yet the all seem to cherry pick the New Testament Scripture (that they all agree upon)? i.e. communion, baptism, how to be saved, etc....everyone has a different opinion - based on Scripture. Is it no wonder the world is confused considering new sects of Christianity pop up everyday like churches in a strip mall?
Admin Reply by: YRM
Well, we are not a sect of Christianity. We are closer to the Messianic side of things. We are not claiming to have all absolute truth. We are learning just like everyone else.

"What happens to the 1700 years of Christians until the 'Yahweh's Restoration Ministry?'"

Not sure, it is not our place to judge, as the Father will have mercy on whom He will have mercy. (Romans 9:18)

All we are doing that makes us different is tossing aside all the man made traditions that come along with most religions like Christianity and Judaism. Both are awash in man made and nonbiblical traditions and customs that have no place in worship.

We are trying to get back to the original worship of the first century assembly.

In your entry about The Sabbath, the article titled “I am not a Jew therefore I do not keep the Sabbath”
You replied “the Israelites kept the Sabbath, even though 11 of the 12 tribes were not Jewish.”
(2Kings 16:1, 6-7)
We disagree.
Yahweh made Abraham the father of the Hebrews. That was way before 2Kings.
Just because they were being defiant against Yahweh, did not undue their lineage.

Shabbat Shalom to one and all, I want to leave a comment first about how inspiring the song "Life Song" offered by Praises For Yahweh was today, I always appreciate their offerings but today seemed to be right on time, thank you.
The sermon presented by Lucas today was right on the money, his topic, "Have the courage to encourage" offered a lot of food for spiritual growth to anyone who is seeking to grow stronger in Yahweh, I'm so happy I was able to be among the brethren who can see the value of this sermon but even more I praise Yahweh for the opportunity for continued growth.

During our recent visit, YRM lovingly received my husband Dan, son Evan and me. The facility itself is beautiful and comfortable. This assembly is full of warm and loving people.

The visit for Sabbath Services and for my baptism was such a memorable visit, and I can't wait to return! Everyone was warm and friendly, supportive and welcoming. When I felt ready to seek baptism, both Elder Alan and Elder Randy patiently talked with me, answering all my questions and explaining everything thoroughly. I told them about my life and things I've been through; they offered me prayers, counseling and ongoing support. I felt comfortable and trusted the elders to facilitate my immersion in Yahshua's name. The immersion itself was wonderful and I'll treasure it always! From the witnesses I heard such beautiful singing; I felt literally safe and supported by Alan and Randy as I was in the baptismal waters; oh! the warmth and love at the receiving line... the whole experience was incredibly wonderful! HalleluYah!

YRM truly teaches the BIBLE! I'm so happy to have been in Bible Study with such an awesome group for well over a year now. I have learned so much! I am looking forward to continuing to learn and grow in the faith together with my wonderful brothers and sisters. I've been searching a long time for a group that not only talks the talk but walks the walk. Thank you everyone at YRM. Yahweh bless!

We kept the Feast in Sept this year, as we observe the Abib barley and base our calendar around that. The Oct. dates are based on the Jewish calculated calendar.
