OUR PURPOSE: RESTORATION
Shalom, welcome to my website. My name is Francisco Arbas.
I am an evangelist/minister and a (Netzari Talmid) or a Nazarene Disciple. I follow the "WAY" or Netzari Emunah. I am a Sephardic Messianic Jew.
Note: Netzari (Nazarene) Emunah/Faith here is considered the same as what apostle Sha'ul/Paul called the sect known as The "WAY" Acts_24:14 (The Romans considered Netzari a sect of Judaism). Not to be confused with Rabbinic Judaism or Orthodox Judaism which is a Religion that includes extra biblical traditions or doctrines of men.
Also not to be confused with or associated with Nazarene Christianity which includes extra biblical traditions or doctrines of men.
RESTORATION the meaning:
(an act of restoring or the condition of being restored: a bringing back to a former position or condition : REINSTATEMENT of the restoration of emunah/faith and shalom/peace.)
Are you looking for restoration in your life? The original Faith of the Apostles?
Let me help you with your restoration. Please contact me with any questions: franciscoarbas.yisrael@gmail.com
This scripture below is the inspiring scripture for this ministry for these last days:
Loved ones, though very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I felt it necessary to write to you urging you to continue to contend for the emunah/faith that was once for all handed down to the kedoshim (set-apart ones). Jude 1:3
This is the restoration this ministry is striving for. Is this a new religion? NO! It's not about religion or doctrines of men, it is the restored FAITH/EMUNAH or what the believers of the Messiah (Christ) believed in and followed in the 1st century, when the true body of believers began.
What is a Religion? (a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices. Never 100% based on the Scriptures.)
The aim of this Ministry is Hebraic Messianic Restoration of Emunah. The Emunah/Faith, which is called Netzari Emunah or the "WAY" in Acts_24:14, Acts_24:5. Which is a return to the Faith (Jude 1:3) once delivered to the Kedoshim (set-apart ones) and it is a return to the whole Scriptures, the Hebraic foundations of both Brit-HaDashah (Renewed Covenant) and Tanakh (Torah, Nevi'im, Ketuvim). Also continuing in the original teachings of the Apostles in the book of Acts (Apostolic Writings) (Acts 2:42).
Netzari Emunah does NOT follow titles of man or man's descriptions. This Faith is NOT a Christian ministry (Yehoshua-Jesus was NOT a Christian), or a part of a denomination, this is not a religion or a religious organization, or a church. This is NOT a Hebrew Roots ministry of Yahuah or a so-called "Sacred Name" ministry-church of Yahweh.
WE ARE HEBREW! WE ARE DISCIPLES OF THE HEBREW KING OF KINGS.
YEHOSHUA HAMASHIACH
We the (Netzari Talmidim), use the Father's personal name written more than 6,825 times in the Hebrew scriptures as YHVH/יהוה. We use his proposed pronunciation with vowels as Yehovah/יְהוָֹה. We also use Father or Abba (which Messiah used) in prayer or bible study and his general names of Elohim in place of God, Adonai in place of Lord.
Hebrew names have meaning. Being a Jew, Messiah's true Hebrew name Yehoshua/יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, means "YHVH is salvation." Others use the Aramaic name Yeshua/יֵשׁוּעַ which means salvation.
We do not use the Geco-Roman-English name of Iesous-Iesus-Jesus, which has NO MEANING at all.
Through much prayer and research it has been established that Netzarim Talmidim Emunah is to proclaim the true name of our Father/Abba יְהוָֹה - YeHoVaH (the Elohim/God of Avraham, Yitz'chak, Ya`akov,) and His son and our Savior יְהוֹשֻׁעַ Yehoshua-Yeshua Ha Mashiach Ha Netzari (the Nazarene). And thus believing that the whole Bible is the Word of YeHoVaH/God and STRIVE thru the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) to keep His commandments and Torah.
He YHVH, hath anointed us (Kedoshim/set-apart ones) to proclaim Netzari Emunah as the WAY (Jude 1:3), to be the good news, to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, recover the sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised and to preach the acceptable year of YeHoVaH.
Rev 18:4 Then I heard another voice out of heaven say: "My people, come out of her! So that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not be infected by her plagues.
As a former Pentecostal minister for 37 yrs., I have left my former ways in Greco-Roman Pagan Christianity and moved on to follow the TRUTH of the WAY of Yehoshua my Savior and Messiah. (Rev. 18:4)
Personally have decided to follow and get back to the Hebraic roots of the Word of Yehovah God that has been lost in what is called Christianity in today's society. The Judeo part of the Judeo-Christian faith has been lost to the Hellenized version of Christianity. Yehoshua (Jesus) didn't come to start a new religion, He came to complete the FAITH/emunah of old, of the patriarchs Avraham, Yitz'chak, Ya`akov.
I have been born again and I am a talmidim and part of the body of Yehoshua the Messiah. Check out our statement of beliefs.
His true Hebrew name:
Yehoshua, or Yeshua is a short version.
♕He came as a Jew (Matthew 2:2 & Luke).
♕Lived as a Jew (Luke 2:41).
♕He came for the Jews (Matthew 15:24; Romans 1:16).
♕He is King of the Jews (Mark 15:2).
♕Died as King of the Jews (John 19:19).
♕He is coming again as a Jew (Revelation 22:16).
He didn’t come as a Christian. He didn’t start the Christian Religion and neither did His Apostles or Talmidim.
A brief summary
100 to 325 C.E.: Known as the Ante-Nicene period (before the Council of Nicene), this period marked the increasingly vigorous separation of the apostate church from the Hebrew/Jewish culture and the true Faith of the WAY, and the gradual spread of what was called Christianity into Western Europe, the Mediterranean region, and the Near East.
200 C.E.: Under the leadership of Irenaeus, bishop of Lyon, the basic structure of the Catholic church was in place. A system of governance of regional branches under absolute direction from Rome was established. The basic tenets of Catholicism were formalized, involving the absolute rule of that religion.
313 C.E.: Roman emperor Constantine legalized Christianity (Roman Catholicism), and in 330 moved the Roman capital to Constantinople, leaving the apostate church to be the central authority in Rome.
325 C.E.: The First Council of Nicaea was converged by Roman Emperor Constantine I. The Council attempted to structure church leadership around a model similar to that of the Roman system and also formalized key articles of religious beliefs.
The Council of Nicaea is considered one of the most important events in the history of Roman Catholic Church and Christianity. It marked the first time that Christian bishops from throughout the Roman Empire had gathered together to discuss and debate theological issues, and its decisions had a significant impact on the development of Christian theology and practice. The Nicene Creed, in particular, has become one of the most widely accepted statements of religious beliefs in the Christian world.
From the death of all of the Apostles the apostate church in Rome started from the 2nd century to turn away from it's Hebrew/Jewish roots to draw in more pagans and agnostics. Emperor Constantine after his so called conversion in 312 C.E., then in 313 C.E. the Edict of Milan granted official toleration to Christians in the Roman Empire. THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH IN 325 C.E. at the Council of Nicaea and its decisions had a significant impact on the development of Christian theology and practices. CHRISTIANITY began! Later in that century, in 380 C.E., Roman Catholicism became the official religion of the Roman Empire. During the following 1,000 years, Catholics were the only people recognized as Christians.
Separation from the Hebrew/Jewish culture, hellenization of the Faith, the changing of the Savior's name to (Iesous-Iesus-Jesus) and the Father's (to Lord/God), the changing of the Sabbath, the statues, pagan worship of the sun and other pagan gods, the cross was never a symbol for the 1st believers, and much, much more. It's all a part of the transformation to what Christianity is today.
Eze 22:26 “Her priests have done violence to My teaching and they profane My set-apart/holy matters. They have not distinguished between the set-apart/holy and profane, nor have they made known the difference between the unclean and the clean. And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned in their midst.
Eze 22:27 “Her leaders in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, to shed blood, to destroy lives, and to get greedy gain (church tithes).
Eze 22:28 “And her prophets have coated them with whitewash, seeing a false vision, and divining a lie for them, saying, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה/Yehovah,’ when יהוה/Yehovah had not spoken.
Remember Iesous-Iesus-Jesus is not his Hebrew name, it's his Greco-Roman Catholic Christian-Christianity name.
Jesus is not his Hebrew name given to his Hebrew/Jewish parents by the messenger angel of Yehovah. His name was given by God/YHVH in the Holy Language (Hebrew) as יְהוֹשֻׁעַ - Yehoshua. Mat 1:18-25
Rev 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I shall give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of Elohim-God.”
Rev 18:4 Then I heard another voice out of heaven say: "My people, come out of her! so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not be infected by her plagues,
Jer 51:45 "Come out of her midst, My people! And let everyone deliver his being from the burning displeasure of יהוה - Yehovah.
Not many today accept "all Scripture,"
2Ti 4:3 For the time is coming when people will not have patience for sound teaching, but will cater to their passions and gather around themselves teachers who say whatever their ears itch to hear.
2Ti 4:4 Yes, they will stop listening to the truth, but will turn aside to follow myths.
and therefore do not accept some vital Scriptures:
"“For many are called, but few are chosen. Mat 22:14
“Because the gate is narrow and the way is afflicted which leads to life, and there are few who find it. Mat 7:14
WHO ARE THE "FEW" THAT ARE CHOSEN?
Eph 1:4 even as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be set-apart/holy and blameless before Him, in love.
2Th 2:13 But we ought to give thanks to Elohim always for you, brothers, beloved by the Master, because Elohim from the beginning chose you to be saved – in set-apartness of Spirit, and belief in the truth.
1Pe 1:2 Chosen according to the foreknowledge of Elohim the Father, set apart by the Spirit unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of יהושע Yehoshua Messiah: Favour and peace be increased to you.
1Pe 1:15 instead, as the One who called you is set-apart, so you also should become set-apart in all behavior.
John 15:16 You did not choose me, I chose you. . .
We are chosen by Messiah to be Set-apart (Holy), for He is Set-apart. Many are called, but few respond to His requirement, namely His demand for Separateness or Apartness (holiness).
Eze 20:12 “And I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, to know that I am יהוה/YHVH who sets them apart.
Therefore the "Few" are described in Rev. 17:14 as . . . CALLED, CHOSEN, AND FAITHFUL!
HOW CAN I KNOW THAT I AM BEING CHOSEN?
Simply by responding to His call "to be Set-apart" from the sins of the world. (His call; you Must be Born Again, born into YHVH's kingdom) Take heed: without Separateness or Apartness no one will see Him; Heb 12:14 Pursue peace with all, and pursue apartness/holiness without which no one shall see the Master.
Only those that make Yehoshua HaMashiach, YHVH's only begotten Son as Savior, their only Teacher . . . Mat 23:8 “But you, do not be called ‘Rabbi,’ for One is your Teacher, the Messiah, and you are all brothers.
He has to be our only Leader, Shepherd, Teacher, and Overseer . . . only those will endure to the end on the Narrow Way. 1Pe 2:25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your beings.
They are those who truly come into a binding relationship/covenant (become disciples) with Yehoshua, even the Renewed Covenant, of which the Torah of Yehovah is still the contents; Heb 8:10 “Because this is the covenant that I shall make with the house of Yisra’ěl after those days, says YHVH/יהוה, giving My laws (Torah) in their mind, and I shall write them on their hearts, and I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people. Only they will escape the end-time plagues and final destruction that is to come upon Mystery Babylon, Goyim nations, the World System.
People being called by Yehovah God feel an urgent need to increase their study of Yehovah God's word. The advances in technology offer an opportunity to reach Yehovah's people wherever they may live.
A person who is a follower of Netzari Emunah or the Way of Yehoshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah), is not just a believer in Him; they are a person who has been (born again) and transformed through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Ghost) and his or her lifestyle is conformed to His teachings, and they have become disciples - accepting the whole council of Yehovah/sGod (New and Old Covenants), not just those parts or Scriptures that they think are comfortable for that person to believe.
A real DISCIPLE/TALMID! Living daily in Him and for our Master.
2Ti 2:15 Do all you can to present yourself to YHVH/God as someone worthy of his approval, as a worker with no need to be ashamed, because he deals straightforwardly with the Word of the Truth.
The Way of Set-apartness
And there shall be a high way, and a way, and it shall be called “The Way of Set-apartness.” The unclean does not pass over it, but it is for those who walk the WAY, and no fools wander on it.
YESHAYAH (ISAIAH) 35:8
Your way, O Elohim, is in Set-apartness; Who is a great Ěl like Elohim?
TEHILLIM (PSALMS) 77:13
I believe that the scriptures were written for our learning and instructions and therefore I rely on BOTH the TANAKH (Old Testament) and Apostolic Writings (New Testament) as my authority.
I hope my websites will serve as a useful resource as you seek to learn more about Yehovah (God), His son Yehoshua Messiah (Jesus Christ) and His Torah (instructions). The pages and the study of Scripture in this website are always changing because they are a work in progress. His Word is Spirit and Life. He gives by revelation. As a Disciple, we grow, change, and are renewed as Adonai reveals Himself to us.

I focus on an Internet Ministry. Why?
I think that the presence of the Internet is as significant as the invention of the printing press. Why? The Internet can distribute material globally at a faster pace and much lower cost. The Internet allows authors for the first time in history the ability to give everyone on earth free access to the finest, most trustworthy biblical truths and materials.
With this distribution of YHVH-God’s truths, I can literally reach everyone on earth and help to complete the Great Commission, possibly in one generation. Believers in Messiah around the world can make their life count for eternity as they become equipped for global impact by discipling others.
AND LET IT BE SO!

Isa 24:6 Therefore a curse shall consume the earth, and those who dwell in it be punished. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth shall be burned, and few men shall be left.
And from the stock of Jesse, there shall come forth a Shoot, (a Branch - the Netzar) (the Nazarene) …And the Spirit of YHVH shall rest upon him… And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb… for the earth will be full of the knowledge of , as the waters cover the sea…
Isa 42:6 “I, יהוה - Yehovah, have called You in righteousness, and I strengthen your hand and guard You, and give You for a covenant to a people, for a light to the nations.
Isa 58:12 “And those from among you shall build the old waste places. You shall raise up the foundations of many generations. And you would be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
