To find out, simply compare what you are taught to what the inspired apostles wrote!

"Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." (Acts 17:11)

Since the apostles were Jews who worshipped at the Temple and at Synagogues, in Hebrew, they wouldn't recognize anything in modern churches - in fact, they'd wonder why people were not obeying the written Law, because the Messiah told everyone that not one jot or tittle passes from the Law until heaven and earth pass. He also said that only those who obeyed God's will would be admitted to the kingdom - not even if they said "Lord, Lord," in His name all day long. He also said that those who practiced Torahlessness would be excluded from the kingdom even if they had taught and preached, healed and helped, and did great wonders in His name.

Since the Messiah taught so vehemently against the takanot and ma'asim of the Pharisees (their additions to the Law/Torah), His apostles would be wondering why everyone was obeying the roman church's anomial (Torahless) traditions and precedents (takanot and ma'asim) instead of obeying Messiah - the same being who came down on Mt. Sinai and said His written Law is eternal, perpetual, for all generations, everywhere you live, and is the "one Law" that applies both to native born Israelites and foreigners who wish to attached themselves to the God of Abraham.

The apostles would wonder how in the world the Messiah got demoted from leadership and was replaced by anomia. Then they would be sad because, as Revelation says (in chps 12&14), those who have faith in Messiah AND the commandments of God, the real saints, are practically extinct.

Good question, but even more so do your personal beliefs line up with God's Word 1 Cor 3:9-11;Eph 2:20. people need to stop blaming there preacher, parent , and anyone else for their lack of dedication to studying to show themselves approved unto God rightly dividing His word. Open the book and search the scriptures for in them are eternal life.

If a pagan priest from ancient Babylon was transported into the future he would feel quite at home in modern christianity.

Without a doubt!

First off I ask you.....

What Did The Savior And Apostles Teach?

The world is filled with various religions, so why aren’t the people turning from the evil of their ways?

The answer is simple, all the religions of the world reject Yahweh’s 613 Laws of Peace.

They teach that the Laws were done away with by the Savior and the Apostles who gave us a new covenant.

This simply is not true. In fact, the Savior and Apostles taught the same covenant as Mosheh and all the Prophets.

HEBREWS 10:16
This is the covenant that I will renew with them after those days, says Yahweh: I will put My Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them.

MATTITHYAH 5:17
Do not even think that I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to destroy them, but to establish them.

MATTITHYAH 7:15,21-23
15. Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
21. Not everyone who says to Me; Teacher! Teacher! will enter into the Kingdom of Yah­weh, but only he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven.
22. Many will say to Me in that day; Teacher! Teacher! Have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and in Your Name performed many wonderful works?
23. But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity; you who break the Law of Yahweh!


YAAQOB 2:10-12
10. For whoever keeps the whole Law, and yet offends in one point, he is guilty of all.
11. For He Who said: Do not commit adultery, also said: Do not murder. Now if you do not commit adultery, yet you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the Law.
12. So speak, and so do, as those who are being judged by the Law of liberty


ISAYAH 2:2-6
2. It will come to pass in the last days, that the mountain; promotion, of The House of Yah­weh will be established in the chief of the nations, and will be raised above all congregations; and all nations will eventually flow to it.
3. And many people will go and say; Come, and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, to the House of the Father of Yaaqob, and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths. For the Law will depart from Zion, and the word of Yahweh will depart from Yerusalem.
4. He will judge among the nations, and will rebuke many people; they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore.
5. O house of Yaaqob, come and let us walk in the light of Yahweh.
6. You have forsaken your people, the house of Yaaqob, because they are filled with customs from the east; they are soothsayers like the Philistines, and they are pleased in the children of strangers.

Jud 1:3 ¶ Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort [you] that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints.

Isa 8:16 ¶ Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.

I TIMOTHY 3:15
But if I am delayed, I write so that you may know the right and proper way to conduct yourself in THE HOUSE OF YAHWEH, who are the called out ones of the living Father, the pillar and ground of the truth.

Great question. Yes, I think so. I am fundamental baptist. We go by what the Bible (God's word) tells us to do.
But....
The apostles never told us to pray to the mother of Jesus or to them because they are dead and can't hear us. The Bible never said that Jesus could be turned into a little wafer and we should bow down to Him. Etc...etc....etc.....

I beleive they'd go where they could continue to "hand on what was handed on to them, in that on the night he was betrayed, he took bread in his hands and blessed it, saying take ye all of you and eat , this is my body which will be given up for you, then he took the cup and blessed it saying take ye all of you and drink of it, this is my blood which will be shed for the remission of sins". Of corse they'd have to go to the roman catholic churches in order to continue their biblical adhearance to this sacred tradition. They'd be kicked out of protestant churches for canabalism, which is sooo ignorant.
