The Only Language the Creator Speaks is Ivrit! - Part I

Feature Article The Only Language the Creator Speaks is Ivrit! - Part I
JAN 24, 2016 LISTEN

Anyone who ponders over the above caption to my article will agree with me that I have chosen to teach on a very important and sensitive issue. That being the case, I would like to entreat all readers to read me very carefully as I labor to express what understanding the Most High One has given to me in respect of this topic.

Maybe, it will benefit readers of this article to first consider a quote from Sir Winston Churchill, British Prime Minister during WWII, which says, Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen”. So I will urge readers to be courageous in listening to me as I also humbly do my bit in this bargain.

Before going into the execution of my assignment, I suppose I should let any readers who may not already be aware to know that Ivrit is what is commonly termed as “Hebrew”—the language spoken by the children of Yisroel!

As a writer, I have received from some readers of my articles published in this very medium, a good number of comments regarding the language spoken by the Creator to the people of the Earth, and to His entire universe. Sadly, most of these comments are not only just awfully wrong and baseless in what they present, but also illogical and so naïve that they have necessitated my writing of this article in an attempt to properly inform my readers.

Getting started on this mission, please read the following comment a reader made: “Different languages and dialects were introduced by God in Babel and while they sound different they mean the same. If you can have a word sounding different in languages, there is no restriction in referring to God [by differing names in other languages] as well, as long as you know you are referring to God of Israel.”—words in parenthesis are mine; added for the sake of clarity.

This same commentator continued: “God does not have an official language. He gave mankind the various tongues and dialects and he understands them all. It is not written anywhere that unless you speak in "a particular" language God will not hear you or you cannot be saved.

Here is another comment by another reader: “My brother, anyone who calls the name Yahushua with the Son of God in mind will be saved but if the name is mentioned in vain, nothing will happen. In the same way, anyone who mentions the name Jesus with the Son of God in mind will be saved but the mention of that name will be of no effect if mentioned just for the sake of it.

The following comment also came from yet another reader: “God is a spirit and per the attributes we give him, all of which are true, he works with us on individual basis and not [as a] group. Hence, if I called upon him by using "Jesus Christ" he knows exactly where I am coming from and will therefore not hesitate in coming to my aid.”—words in parenthesis are mine.

I must say that all these quotes are incorrect, in varying degrees, in the facts they seek to present. They are all false and come from people who seem to me to be just too naïve, spiritually! And yet, all three commentators are no mean bible-believers.

They all claim to have been blessed with the wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and counsel that Elohiym freely gives to all who are in His salvation and active workforce, through the indwelling presence of His Ruwakh HaKodesh in them!

Now, when people like my three commentators speak with such passion in their convictions and, yet, are openly wrong, they not only endanger their own spiritual lives, but that of other people as well; for, a zealous person who is not guided by revelation knowledge will kill himself [and those that follow him], simply because all people who are ignorant of the truth shall perish—cf. Hosea 4:6!

Maybe, the claims of all such people, that they have some “Holy Spirit” who indwells them and gives them their wisdom and understanding of the ways of the Most High One, without even ever hearing of Ruwakh HaKodesh—the true and genuine life-giving and life-sustaining Spirit of Elohiym, who encompasses all His nature and attributes—is what has done them in by holding them in perpetual ignorance.

For all one may know, such people may rather be possessed by an unholy spirit, in their claim of having a “Holy Spirit” in them!! Of course, this could easily be their bane if they suppose that, when the Most High One promises to give Ruwakh HaKodesh to all saved people, they can allow themselves to be misled by bible translators to suppose that Elohiym means to give them some so-called “Holy Spirit”, instead! How more naïve can any seekers of spiritual understanding get??

Before going further into executing my task in this teaching assignment, let me, in paying courtesies to the publishers of The Restored Names King James Version Bible (RNKJV), state that the words “God”, “Jesus”, and “Christ” found in the KJV Bible since its first publication in 1611 CE, have today been replaced with the words Elohiym, Yahushua, and Messiah, respectively, in their RNKJV Bible!

So also have the words “Christian” and “Christians” of the KJV Bible been replaced with Messianic and Messianics, respectively, in the RNKJV!! Sadly, however, they are yet to expunge “Holy Spirit” from their now defunct KJV Bible and to restore, in its stead, Ruwakh HaKodesh in their new RNKJV! Well, I hope they do so pretty soon!

I pray that, some time to come, we may have the occasion to critically examine and review this new RNKJV Bible in my column on this Modern Ghana internet site. But, for now, let me say that, by this new Bible, all ‘Christians’ of yesteryears have simply metamorphosed to become today’s Messianics, and that it is no longer legal or wise for any people to be called ‘Christians’, either of themselves or by some other persons!

And so, for all Christians who have already passed on from beyond this life on Earth towards one in Eternity, before this change to Messianics, there is no guarantee they will be welcomed at any known destination by their Maker, since, according to the RNKJV Bible, they should have gone seeking admission into the Gates of Abode of the Creator as Messianics instead, and not as Christians!! Are we safe?? What news, at all, is this??

Now, moving on with my teaching, let me make it categorically clear that Elohiym has no hand in originating, developing or shaping any one of the countless number of non-Ivrit languages of the Earth. All languages, except Ivrit, have evolved through the efforts of mankind! This is so, in much the same way that Elohiym has no hand in the production of any man-made things of the Earth; unless they were expressly made in compliance with His instructions for use in His worship.

You see, before the creation of the heavens and the earth, there was a language that was already in use in Shamayim (Heaven) as an instrument of communication between Elohiym, HaBen (His Son) Yahushua, and the host of holy malakim (angels) who worshipped and served Elohiym. All praise and worship of Elohiym and Yahushua was conducted in this language.

This holy language persists in Shamayim today, and will continue to be there as its only ‘lingua franca’ forever and ever; for nothing—whether laws, orders, practices, manners and or worship—that is established in Shamayim ever changes, but remains so eternally!!

This same language is what was used to call into being all the things that were not yet in being, as if they were—cf. Romans 4:17—and thus, is what brought all Creation into visible manifestation! So, then, programmed within all things of Creation [whether animate, inanimate or abstract], is the ability and capacity to hear and understand this language by which they were created so that they can obey the Creator, simply because the power of the Creator is in this language of Creation! In fact, the power of this language is Creation itself; and all Creation is also this very same language!

If we can accept this as truth, we can also understand and accept that the Word of this language is what is made to become the visible and tangible human-like flesh or personality who is called Yahushua, HaBen HaElohiym (The Son of Elohiym)—cf. YahuKhanan (John?) 1:1-2—and of whom YahuKhanan “the Beloved” gives witness in YahuKhanan Alef (First John) 1:1-3 and in Hisgalus (Revelation) 1:13-15 as the Aleph and Tav (not the Alpha and Omega Greek demon)!

In fact, no language other than Ivrit could ever have brought Yahushua HaBen HaElohiym into manifestation; and definitely not English—a language that came into being only in the seventh century of Common Era (CE) long after Creation—as the English Bible may seek to imply!

And so, for anyone to think that Elohiym has no official language or lingua franca for His business, kingdom and dwelling place in the highest heavens, that person is simply being too naïve in his thinking! Now, because this language of Elohiym is best understood by spirit-beings is the reason why He first uttered His instructions and mandate of how Adam was to rule Creation to Adam’s spirit when he (Adam) was yet to be made the tripartite being of spirit, soul and a body of flesh (earth) that a man is made to be—cf. Beresheet (Genesis) 1:26-28 and 2:7, and 20-21!

Part II
Therefore, it is by this same language of Creation that the ruwakh (spirit) of Adam received instructions from Elohiym regarding how he (Adam) was to live on Earth, and also how he was to exercise dominion over all of Creation.

From the account of Beresheet (Genesis) 2:19-20, Elohiym gave Adam the liberty to assign or give names according to his own choice of words, by which he would call all types of the beasts of the field and birds of the air that he was to live with and have dominion over. And so did Adam do, according to the liberty Elohiym had given him—that is, naming all things of Creation by his choice of words!

You may want to know the language with which Adam found names for all the things of Creation that he named by his authority. Since it was expected that all the creatures Adam named were to respond to their names whenever they were clearly uttered to their hearing, this language had to be the same as the one which created them; for, as stated earlier, all Creation—of animate and non-animate things—has, programmed within it, the ability to hear, understand and obey the language they were created by!!

Now, ever since Elohiym gave Adam the dominion over all of Creation and the liberty to name the things of his environment according to his own choice of words, all mankind—the seed of Adam—have, to date, also been blessed with this liberty that was given to Adam; for, all mankind, being the offspring of Adam, was yet in his (Adam’s) loins when this liberty was given to him and, so, was blessed together with him.

Therefore, Elohiym neither comes down to Earth, not even once, nor is He supposed to do so always, in order to give names to the things of man’s environment which he discovers day by day without end! Therefore, no one should suppose Elohiym gives any language to man!!

Many people who talk about Babel often display an annoying ignorance of the facts of that account in the scriptures. Many people, ignorant of the full import of the Babel account in Beresheet (Genesis) 11:1-9, presume that Elohiym gave languages to mankind at Babel. Elohiym is angered by this ignorance; and I will point out why He is!

You see, Elohiym did not even have any hand in the establishment of that means of communication which was of one language, and of one speech”, which the then inhabitants of the world [an already corrupted seed of Adam] used, prior to the coming of a multiplicity of languages!

Yes, that single language of unity, even as powerful and effective as it was, did not come through the doings of Elohiym; otherwise, He would never have masterminded its end, since He always ensures that all things that bear His handiwork must remain as they are, eternally! If this language of power and unity had been created by Him, He would have been undoing His own work by bringing it to an end!! Please, let us get that clear in our minds!

Again, the resulting confusion in languages at Babel after the tower was destroyed cannot be attributed to Elohiym as having supplied these confusing languages to the Earth! This is because He is neither the author of confusion, nor does He confuse anyone!! Elohiym only tuned the minds [thoughts] of the then mankind at Babel against each other, which then resulted in they, themselves, bringing into being a multiplicity of languages and tongues that brought about the confusion among them through the manner they communicated.

In any case, because Elohiym had already given man dominion over every happening on Earth, He was never to, and, in fact, could never do anything on Earth without being invited by man to do so! And so, Elohiym would therefore not bring any languages to Earth without being invited to do so; more so, when man had been given His express permission to name the things of his environment as he liked!!

If you have a little knowledge of the Ewe language of West Africa and of French, you will know that in Eweva” means “come” whiles in French “il va” means “he goes”; the two languages opposing each other, in and by one same word, “va”, and thus confusing their users! In Ivrit, “yam” means “sea” whiles in English, “yam” is an edible tropical tuber! See?? Again, “loin” in Ivrit means “wages” whiles in English “loin” means the part of the human body of the pelvic region.

Did Elohiym bring about these languages that are directly against each other? Obviously not! For, whatever Elohiym did in His Creation for one man is the same that was done for all!! Remember, Elohiym is no respecter of persons and there is no favoritism in Him. Therefore, He will not teach one man what “yam” is to Him, only to go teach another a different meaning to the same word, “yam”!!

So then, one may ask: how come all these numerous languages of the Earth, if Elohiym never created them? The answer is simple! All languages of the Earth are developed by man according to his observation of things in the environment he lives in, in order to describe and define his jurisdiction; and, for this, he has the mandate of Elohiym to do so, times without number!

That is why languages are so very diverse and so variable, according to the things in the diverse environments man lives in! There is no way an African in his tropical homeland would coin a word for snow or iceberg when these are non-existent in his environment!

Languages do not only describe a man’s environment, but they also determine the power of his thinking and creating capacity, all of which are aided by his observation of the things in his environment and their behavior or nature.

So then, the man living in temperate Europe may see an iceberg in his environment during a period of cold weather only to later on observe it thaw into water! Then he begins to figure out in his mind how this strange phenomenon could possibly come about! He gets to know that, after all, the iceberg is simply another state of water! So, he understands that water can swing from a liquid to a solid state; and even observes further that, in between these two, there is yet a third state—gaseous—for the same water!

Before long, this European would be finding words to describe the phenomena of snowing, icecap formation, glaciations and flooding caused by ice melts, etc., and would come up with a very rich vocabulary associated with freeze-thaw activities that are completely unknown or unthinkable to any Malian living in Africa! If the Malian would, in future, have a word in his language to mean, say, “ice”, that word would have been borrowed from one originating from another environment where ice exists naturally.

By forming words to describe the things he sees happening in his environment, and then thinking over these words and processing them in his mind, it could lead any European to have knowledge and so much brain power that enables him to invent a deep freezer!!

Contrarily, his counterpart in Africa may not yet have an idea in refrigeration, simply because of non-existent snow and icebergs in his environment. But, of course, the African in his humid tropical environment would have also advanced in observing his environment and creating words to describe it.

He would most likely also develop his particular brain power, based on his language, which should enable him to produce or manufacture products that could make life in his environment easy. It seems to me that the African ought to have been the one to have invented the air-conditioner—first for his own comfort, and then for that of others—but was, sadly, beaten to it by his kinsman in Europe!

Today, languages have become very complex, sophisticated, refined, sharp or precise in the meanings of words, and thus, are very powerful instruments of expression of brain power and ability; and this, all because languages have progressed with time, just as generations of people have also progressed. So then, no language is the same in a given location over a period of time.

All languages are dynamic—they keep increasing in content and improving in clarity and in expression of thought! I just learned of the latest additions to the English lexicon—Dumsor—a word of Ghanaian origin meaning “on and off” electricity supply!! Be not surprised that dumsorization is on its way into the vocabulary of the English language!

Now, contrary to this dynamism in every language is the fact that everything the Creator has made does not change; and so, no language spoken on Earth, apart from Ivrit [also spoken in Shamayim] is the handiwork of Elohiym.

So then, whatever volume of English vocabulary that is available today was neither available yesterday, nor would it remain so tomorrow! How man expressed himself in English yesterday is not the same today. Languages are very dynamic; and if they were given by the Most High One to mankind, previous generations could find fault with Elohiym for giving them cruder versions than what today’s generation have!!

Because languages are man-made, they engender pride and strife among races or tribes, since one kindred of mankind may elevate the language they speak over that of others, to the point of even looking down on others’. I am sure you have heard people joke that “You speak French to a lady, English to a gentleman and German to a bull”!! Oh my!! Sadly, oftentimes, this is not taken as a joke!

Part III
Today, knowledge is power; and this power is derived from the volume of words in a man’s brain! The power of the brain controls the Earth; and the power of the brain is based on the stock of fine words in the brain.

Just as Elohiym created the universe with Ivrit, so have various countries the world over been able to invent all of the manufactured products of the Earth, with and by the value of their languages; languages that were not given to them by Elohiym but were developed by themselves, just like the people of Babel did to enable them build a skyscraper!

I suppose I make myself clear in saying this. I am simply referring to the languages that were used in the inventions of the potter’s wheel, the radio, car, air plane, etc, and not those which can be used to copy or imitate those languages that created the original. That is why there are genuine and imitated products in our world; and why somebody must hold patent rights to a manufactured item and also display the name of country in which he manufactured his goods.

Now, to the proof that Elohiym speaks only Ivrit in and out of Shamayim (Heaven?)! Mark my words: I said Elohiym speaks, not hears, only Ivrit!! I do not also mean to say that Elohiym communicates His Will to mankind only in speech; but that, if He must speak audibly to the hearing of any ear, He would always speak Ivrit!

You see, Elohiym made a choice of Yisroel, out of all kindred of the Earth, to be His own—for He says Yisroel is His firstborn Son—cf. Shemot (Exodus) 4:22! And so, whatever language a father speaks is what a son is taught to speak! So then, the children of Yisroel, to this day, speak Ivrit because that is the only language their Abba, Yahuwah Elohiym, ever taught them!

When Elohiym called the Father of the Nation of Yisroel who was then a Goyim (of a Gentile nation) living in the city of Ur of the Chaldeans, He did not do so through speech but by some other means! These other means will be revealed in this article! These are all strictly non-verbal means, which Elohiym uses to communicate with any Goyim who find His favor!

The obedience of Avraham, the Father of the Nation of Yisroel, to the call of Elohiym marked his birth [anew] as a son of the Most High One, Yahuwah Elohiym. Just like every son born to a father—and who is indeed a son, even at a time when he is without the knowledge or ability to speak the language of his father but learns it as he grows physically into adulthood—so did Avraham learn Ivrit, taught him by Elohiym, as he walked uprightly before Him!!

At the time Elohiym called Avraham out of his father’s people, his name was Avram; a name of typical Aramaic roots. This was later changed by Elohiym to the purely Ivrit name Avraham so as to seal his perpetual departure from the land of his birth and provide him an eternal deliverance from being of the stock of his ancestors.

It seems to me that, in His scheme of doing things, Elohiym always ensured that no two workers in His service bore the same name! And so, from the evidence in His entire Word of the Ivrit Tanakh (Old Testament?) and the Beyrit Khadasha (New Testament?), no one ever bore the name Avraham, except the man He chose to be the Father of Yisroel!

In all the Ivrit Scriptures, I am yet to find a second Yitzchak, Moshe, Eli, ShmuEl, ElYahu, Dovid, DaniEl, YechezkEl, etc. But, of course, after the Savior had accomplished his mission on Earth for the salvation of mankind, such names, which Elohiym gave by His authority to holy men He chose to play roles in His salvation plan for mankind, then seemed to have become available for use in naming any babies born to Yisroel.

And so, we have such unique names of people in the Ivrit Holy Scriptures existing today—examples being Moshe Dayan, Dovid Ben Gurion, Levi Eshkol, Shimon Peres, Yitzchak Navon, Ephraim Katzir, Reuven Rivlin, Binyamin NatanYahu—and in use among the children of Yisroel today.

Because every known interaction of Elohiym with mankind has, since the call of Avraham, been through Yisroel alone, it is obvious that these interactions have always been in Ivrit! When Yisroel received the Torah on Mt. Sinai, they heard Elohiym speak to them in Ivrit and He also wrote His commandments for them in Ivrit.

When, later on, he sent them neviim (prophets?) to give specific messages to guide them in their obedience of the Torah, He spoke Ivrit to them and they, all of them being of the stock of Yisroel, spoke in Ivrit to their fellow countrymen. They had no need to translate the Ivrit word and so could, without any shred of contradiction, say Thus says the Most High One in their utterances.

In Ivriim (Hebrews) 1:1-2, we learn that Elohiym had, in times past, spoken to the Earth through His neviim, and that in these days He has spoken through His son Yahushua. And so, wherever men found themselves, whether in the days of the Tanakh (Old Testament?) or the Beyrit Khadasha (New Testament?), they were ministered to by Ivrit-born neviim. Of course, it had to be so, for, salvation is of Ivriim—cf. YahuKhanan (John) 4:22.

When Elohiym spoke at the tevilah (baptism?) of Yahushua, He spoke Ivrit. Again, when He spoke at the Transfiguration of Yahushua, He spoke Ivrit. When Yahushua was about to yield his ruwakh (spirit) in completion of his sacrifice on Mt. Gulgotha, he spoke Ivrit to his Abba. Anytime Elohiym sent messengers—malakim (angels) to Yisroel from His Throne Room—He gave them instructions in Ivrit.

On the first day of Khag Shavuot (Feast of Pentecost?), when Shimon Kefa, on behalf of the other shlikhim (apostles?), spoke to a crowd of Diaspora returnees of Ivri descent to YahuSalem, he did so in Ivrit and all his listeners heard him in Ivrit! Obviously, it was Elohiym speaking in and through Shimon Kefa; thus, speaking, as usual, in Ivrit!! Why then would anyone suppose Elohiym has no lingua franca or “official” language??

However, the approach by Elohiym in communicating to people of Goyim descent is completely different—for, because they may neither understand Ivrit, nor would Elohiym break His rule of never speaking directly to Goyim people in their language, He would always do so in and by dreams!

Obviously, this was so when Elohiym wanted to communicate with a Pharaoh of Mitzrayim—cf. Beresheet (Genesis) 41:1-7—when He caused him to dream one dream of same meaning twice in one night; and yet this Pharaoh could not even understand Him!

King Nevuchadnetzar of Babylon also had dreams which he could not interpret, or even remember—cf. DaniEl 2 and 4:427! And yet, that was the only way by which Elohiym would want to communicate events of a coming future to him.

When King Beltshatzar of Babylon, in DaniEl 5:5, saw the secret handwriting of Elohiym on a wall, he had no understanding of it, simply because the writing was strange to him and unlike anything he knew of Babylonian writings. With all certainty, I say that, this handwriting was Ivrit!

In all these three situations, there was always the need for an Ivri (one Hebrew man) to interpret the dream or read the Ivrit handwriting for these Goyim! This shows how almost impossible it is for Elohiym to communicate with any Goyim of uncircumcised hearts—they are simply as dead as stones!!

For the circumcised Goyim, like me, who speaks no Ivrit, communication from Elohiym is received through my human spirit which, because it is born anew and is in oneness with Ruwakh HaKodesh of ElohiymYechezkEl (Ezekiel) 36:25-27, YahuKhanan (John) 3:5 and Ma’asim (Acts) 2:38-39—causes both our spirits to be in constant fellowship in dialogue with each other!!

When Goyim today claim they hear Elohiym speak to them in any of the Goyim languages, such as English, they ONLY believe lying and seducing demons. Of course, Lucifer desires to communicate with mankind and would often do so through principalities and powers in charge of various jurisdictions on Earth, all of whom know the languages of the people in these jurisdictions they are assigned to by their boss [Lucifer].

In conclusion, let me make a few comments on those I quoted from my readers at the beginning of this article. Obviously, contrary to human opinion, Elohiym does have a lingua franca that is used in Shamayim and in Yisroel, which, once upon a time, was the extension of Shamayim on Earth!!

From the foregoing, Elohiym has not created any one of the languages of the Goyim! He speaks none of them; however, He understands all languages and will hear prayers you offer in it! Your prayer in a Goyim tongue is like a bubbling of an infant to Him; you will be answered only because you have become His precious child!!

It must now be obvious to all that the name JESUS CHRIST originated from Earth whilst Yahushua, long before Creation, has been in, of, and thus from Shamayim! The two are of different value and effect in usage. So please, do not utter JESUS and expect Elohiym to suppose you meant Yahushua, and that He is under any obligation to you to grant you what the name Yahushua would normally draw!

If that were to be so, one might just as well keep one’s thoughts and desires in one’s head, and never utter them specifically and concisely in prayer, and yet hope to have whatever was in one’s head granted him!

No; it does not work that way!! You have to make a clear request or order so you can be served according to your request. In this regard, do please remember that there is ONLY one name under Shamayim by which men must believe and act on so as to enter the salvation of the Most High One—cf. Ma’asim (Acts) 4:10-12—and this name is the Ivrit YAHUSHUA, which was delivered from The Throne of Yahuwah Elohiym to the inhabitants of the Earth on two occasions by malak (angel) GavriEl, and not the Goyim name JESUS CHRIST!

I hope the time spent and the effort made in reading this rather long article of mine was rewarding. Shalom aleikhem.
