Twisting Scripture, Bending Minds:

Commentary on Jesus.org Question of the Day Re: 5 Ways Satan Wants to Destroy Your Holiness A Christian pastor wrote that it is "impossible" to find Yahuah's acceptance by obeying Him. In Yahusha's parable at Mt. 21:28-32 about the two sons, He made the point that the one who obeys the will of the Father is acceptable. What is "impossible" is being acceptable to Yahuah by remaining disobedient. The author wrote: “Legalism is not attempting to keep the law of God. It’s assuming we can keep it. Furthermore, legalism says God’s acceptance is found in keeping God’s law. Impossibl e!”

Response from Lew White: Dear brother,

In Yahusha’s parable of the two sons, He shows us how our obedience DOES find acceptance: Mat 21:28-32: “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work t oday in my vineyard.’ And he answering, said, ‘I do not wish to,’ but aft erwards he repented and went. And having come to the second, he said similarly. A nd he answering, said, ‘I go, master,’ but he did not go. Which of the two did the desire of the father?” The y said to Him, “The first.” Yahusha said to them, “Truly, I s ay to you that tax collectors and whores are entering into th e reign of Alahim before you, for Yahukanon came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but tax collectors and whores believed him. And when you sa w it, you did not repent afterwards, to believe him.” Our obedience perfects and establishes our belief. New "laws" invented by men (like Sunday) have replaced the Torah of Yahuah.
