“He maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire.”

Hebrew:

עושֶׂה מַלְאָכַיו רוּחוּת מְשָׂרְתָיו אֵשׁ לוֹהֵט

Oseh mal’achav ruchot, meshartav esh lohet. (Tehillim 104:4)

The servants of Elohim are described as winds and flames of fire, signifying His power and divine messengers. In Yochanan (John) 3:8, those born of the Ruach (Spirit) are likened to the wind, moving according to the unseen direction of Elohim.

The Fullness and Authority of the Messiah

Ephesians 1:20-23 (KJV)

“Which He wrought in Mashiach, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: and hath put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the kehillah, which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all.”

The fullness of the Messiah encompasses all authority.

The government of Elohim is placed upon His shoulders (Yesha’yahu 9:6).

All means all — every dominion and power is under the authority of Yeshua HaMashiach.

Why Say “Kehilah” Instead of “Church”?

Words carry significant meaning, and Elohim did not leave His message to be lost in translation. The word “church” is a mistranslation of the Greek Ekklesia (ἐκκλησία), which originally meant assembly.

Proverbs 30:5-6 (KJV)

“Every word of Elohim is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him. Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”

Ekklesia never meant a physical building or an institution. It refers to the called-out assembly of believers. The mistranslation of “ekklesia” into “church” originated from the influence of King James’ translators, who were instructed to retain ecclesiastical terms to maintain state control over religious institutions.

Example of the Bias in the King James Bible:

Tehillim (Psalm) 22:22 (KJV) – “I will declare Thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee.”

Ivrim (Hebrews) 2:12 (KJV) – “I will declare Thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto Thee.”

The Hebrew word Qahal (קהל) in the Tanakh is identical in meaning to the Greek Ekklesia in the Brit Chadashah. They both mean assembly. The concept of “church” as a building, an institution, or a hierarchical organization is a later development not found in Scripture.

The Impact of the Wrong Translation

The early believers did not attend “church” as we think of it today. Instead, they were a living, active assembly that met in homes and public places.

Romans 16:5 (KJV) – “Greet the assembly that is in their house.”

2 Chronicles 1:3 (KJV) – “Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon: for there was the tabernacle of the congregation of Elohim.”

The assembly is a people, not a place.

The connection between Israel’s qahal and the New Covenant ekklesia is erased when we use the word “church.”

When Yeshua said, “I will build my assembly” (Mattityahu 16:18), He was not creating a new religion. He was continuing the covenant people of Elohim under a renewed covenant.

The Role of Servant Leadership

Mark 10:42-45 (KJV)

“But Yeshua called them to Him, and saith unto them, ‘Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your servant: and whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many.'”

The Levitical priests served before Elohim in His dwelling.

Elijah sent out a servant to watch for the sign of rain, demonstrating that leaders must serve.

The Shamash (שמש) of the Menorah and Hanukkah lamp is the servant candle, lighting all the others.

Yeshua, our Suffering Servant, is our example of leadership (Yeshayahu 53).

The Nations and the Future of Israel

Yehezkel (Ezekiel) 11:19-20 (KJV)

“And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: That they may walk in My statutes, and keep My ordinances, and do them: and they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim.”

The world opposes Israel, but Elohim’s plan remains unchanged. The nations have done the following:

Scattered the Jewish people through exile and persecution.

Divided the land and attempted to take Israel’s inheritance.

Sold Jews into slavery and sought to erase their identity.

Tehillim (Psalm) 13 (KJV)

“How long wilt Thou forget me, O Elohim? Forever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?”

The cry of the martyrs in Revelation 6:10 (KJV) echoes this sentiment:

“How long, O Elohim, holy and true, dost Thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?”

The Coming War and the New World Order

As technology advances, many wonder if movements like Neuralink, global surveillance, and economic shifts are part of a new world order described in Scripture. Some believe the alignment of global leaders points toward the final struggle prophesied in Daniel and Revelation.

Yesha’yahu (Isaiah) 63:5 (KJV)

“And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore Mine own arm brought salvation unto Me; and My fury, it upheld Me.”

Elohim alone will bring salvation to Israel.

The world’s leaders give power to the beast (Revelation 17:12-13).

Israel’s destiny is written in prophecy, and no nation can thwart it.

May we walk in the fullness of His assembly, knowing that Yeshua HaMashiach is our King, and His kingdom will never end!
