Bayith Yahweh · Covenant Study
A study on submission, false worship, the 12 tribes, the Pharisees, and the exposure of those who bring shame to the name of Yahweh.
The world today is under an influence of deception. While mankind battles in the flesh, there is spiritual warfare taking place on earth today. Man, when given power, money, and authority, will attempt to have you follow man. This is the carnal nature of us all. So who do you worship? The word worship can mean: to submit oneself to.
Yahweh gave us a Covenant with a Promise, and we are told in no uncertain terms to submit ourselves to it, and He will give us the Promise written within this Covenant.
This is a great statement to us all. Why have we broken the Everlasting Covenant of Yahweh? The answer can be found within the articles on this site. We reveal the deception of man — through their translations, transliterations, and devotion to men rather than to Yahweh.
We do not ask for money. Freely we have received, and freely we give. May Yahweh bless you in all that you put your hands to do concerning Him.
The core question — who do you submit yourself to? — remains the central covenant challenge for every person in every generation. The 2010–2016 content correctly identified the problem: men inserting themselves between the people and Yahweh, demanding worship that belongs only to the Creator.
The current position of Miqdash Bethel grounds the answer exclusively in the Hebrew Tanakh: submit to the covenant instructions of Yahweh as preserved in Torah. No man, no organization, no denomination stands between a person and their Creator.
The twelve tribes of Yisra'el each had their own boundaries, their own families, their own Houses of Yahweh established to worship within. When they were in the wilderness with approximately several million people, there were thousands of places where they worshiped Yahweh every Sabbath. It was not possible — nor required — for every place of worship to have the same exact sermon or the same understanding of every point of Torah. What they had in common was that they followed the Covenant of the Laws according to what Mosheh taught the elders of the congregation.
What is unrighteous is to say: "Our group has the ONLY truth and every other group is deceived, liars, and cut off from Yahweh!" Rule by force is the way of Cain — not of Yahweh. The body is made of many members, not one tribe.
This teaching on the twelve tribes and the diversity of covenant assemblies remains fully consistent with the current Miqdash Bethel position. No assembly has a monopoly on Yahweh. The covenant belongs to Him. Every household that commits to living by His instructions becomes a Miqdash Bethel — a House of Yahweh — regardless of where they are in the world.
Elder Kepha spent 23 years in a House of Yahweh and is more qualified than most to expose the darkness within. Since departing, he has visited fellow Hebrew tribesmen in other assemblies and has seen no basis for the lies and hatred promoted by the House of Yahweh in Abilene, Texas against other Sacred Name believers.
The following qualifications identify one who denies the authority of Yahweh while claiming to serve Him:
The Pharisees were at various times a political party, a social movement, and a school of thought among Hebrews during the Second Temple period. They emerged largely out of the group of scribes and sages who harked back to Ezra and the Great Assembly. They believed that all Hebrews in their ordinary life — not just the Temple priesthood — should observe the rules of the covenant. In this they were correct.
Where they departed from Torah was in their additions to it — their oral traditions that they elevated to the same authority as the written word of Yahweh. This is the pattern repeated by every religious authority that elevates its own commentary above the plain text of the covenant: the Torah always supersedes all commentary.
The historical study of the Pharisees remains valuable as a record of what happens when human commentary is elevated above the written covenant of Yahweh. The current Miqdash Bethel position holds that the Talmud, Church councils, and all religious commentary are historical reference only — never binding authority. Torah always supersedes all commentary.
The witness against the House of Yahweh in Abilene/Clyde, Texas — documented in full at themanbehindthename.com — stands as a formal covenant testimony under the standard of Devarim 19:15.
