The Biblical Principles of Verification
Prelude
Today, most church pastors and teachers would tell you to hold on to your faith, and discourage you or tell you to stay away from other teachings they do not subscribed to. Mostly, this is mainly because of fear of (jeopardizing) reducing or losing their income, job and/or their retirement benefits.
Some of these pastors and teachers may just be waiting for the leadership of their organization to embrace it just to be safe.
But today, if you did not know yet, the pyramid in Louvre, France, was built to signify to the powers-that-be that all known religions in the world today have already been conquered by them -- the powers-that-be. Which means, all doctrines, including all Christian doctrines taught by any of these known denominations today are already mixed with untruths.
The book of Revelation tells us about this already:
And there was given to him to give spirit to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause to be killed as many as would not worship the image of the beast.
-- (Rev 13:15 The Scriptures 1998+)
The greek words "speak" (G2980 - laleō) and "cause" (G4160 - poieō) used here suggest a long process of seduction, luring, and deception. The beast may not yet be ruling today, but certainly the spirit that was given to it (Rev 13:15a) has already been working its process of seduction and luring to deceive as many.
You know why? The next phrase in the verse answers it.
"as many as would not worship the image of the beast"
-- (Rev 13:15b)
It means no one would worship the image of the beast if they knew it is the image of the beast. Make sense?
And he causes all, both small and great, and rich and poor, and free and slave, to be given a mark upon their right hand or upon their foreheads,
--(Rev 13:16 The Scriptures 1998+)and that no one should be able to buy or sell except he that has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
-- (Rev 13:17 The Scriptures 1998+)

But Yahshua says "search the scriptures" (John 5:39) and Paul says "prove all things, hold on to what is good." (1Th 5:21) Are you going to follow your pastor or teacher? Or are you going to follow Yahshua and "search the Scriptures" instead?
A Word Of Warning!
And as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, Tell us, when will these things be? And, what is the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?
-- (Mat 24:3 HRB)And answering, Yahshua said to them, See that no man deceives you.
-- (Mat 24:4 HRB)Search The Scriptures
“You search the Scriptures, because you think you possess everlasting life in them. And these are the ones that bear witness of Me.
-- (John 5:39 The Scriptures 1998+)Prove all things, hold fast that which is good.
-- (1Th 5:21 HRB)Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonike, who received the word with great eagerness, and searched the Scriptures daily, if these words were so.
-- (Acts 17:11 The Scriptures 1998+)NOTE: One must be grounded on the Bible. Therefore, the Bible must become a trustworthy source, at the least. And one must strive to make the Bible a "Stable Data -- Absolute Truth". Otherwise, one will easily be carried away by dogmas, presuppositions, and surmising that may sound Biblical but are not.
For example: The Trinity or Binity Doctrine, the ceremonial law and the moral law doctrines. Do not take my word for it. Instead use "The Biblical Principles Of Verification" and see for yourself, personally, firsthand. Just you and the Bible. But of course Ask the Father for the Ruach HaKodesh to guide you to the truth of the matter.

By What Standard Do We Use?
To the Torah and to the Testimony! If they do not speak according to this Word, it is because there is no light to them!
-- (Isa 8:20 HRB)To the "law"H8451 and to the "testimony":H8584 if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
-- (Isa 8:20 KJV+)law
תּרה תּורה
tôrâh tôrâh
to-raw', to-raw'From H3384; a precept or statute, especially the Decalogue or Pentateuch: - law.
-- Strong's - H8451testimony
תּעוּדה
te‛ûdâh
teh-oo-daw'From H5749; attestation, that is, a precept, usage: - testimony.
-- Strong's - H8584Please note: The "Torah" -- the five books of Moses, and the "testimony" the prophets and the writings -- the Tanakh, the Old Testament, is foremost the standard by which we shall use; and the whole Bible.
For it is: command upon command, command upon command, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.
(Isa 28:10 The Scriptures 1998+)But the Word of יהוה was to them, “Command upon command, command upon command, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little,” so that they go and shall stumble backward, and be broken and snared and taken captive.
(Isa 28:13 The Scriptures 1998+)Yahushua affirmed:
Do not think that I came to annul the Torah or the Prophets; I did not come to annul, but to fulfill.
-- (Mat 5:17 HRB)Truly I say to you, Until the heaven and the earth pass away, in no way shall one yod or one stroke pass away from the Torah until all comes to pass.
-- (Mat 5:18 HRB)Therefore, whoever loosens one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the worst in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever does and teaches them, this one shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven.
-- (Mat 5:19 HRB)For I say to you, If your righteousness shall not exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter into the kingdom of YAHWEH, never!
-- (Mat 5:20 HRB)Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one accusing you, Moses, in whom you have hoped.
-- (Joh 5:45 HRB)For if you were believing Moses, you would then believe Me; for that one wrote concerning Me.
-- (Joh 5:46 HRB)But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My Words?
-- (Joh 5:47 HRB)How Shall We Conclude The Matter?
But if he does not hear, take one or two more with you, "so that on the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established."
-- (Mat 18:16 HRB)“One witness does not rise up against a man concerning any crookedness or any sin that he commits. At the mouth of two witnesses or at the mouth of three witnesses a matter is established.
-- (Deut 19:15 The Scriptures 1998+)One witness shall not rise against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin which he sins. At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses a thing shall be established.
-- (Deut 19:15 HRB)Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Mosheh dies without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses.
-- (Heb 10:28 The Scriptures 1998+)Please NOTE: a "teaching" is established with "TWO or THREE witnesses" found in the Scriptures according to Isa 8:20, 28:10-13 (The Torah and the Testimony). Keep that in mind.
Because many would tell you, "a doctrine is not established by a few verses from the Bible." This may or may not be true. But now you know, that if Moses wrote it (Torah), and testified by at least two witnesses from the Prophets and Writings, and even from the New Testament, it is established, then follow it.
Otherwise, no matter how many verses they gave you, but Moses did not write about it, and Yahshua did not teach it. Then do not be afraid to dismiss it.
Please review this study faithfully, and keep it to your heart and guard it. This is our guide from the Bible.
Shalom!
Yah Bless You!
