Assemblies of Yahweh distances itself from Canefield incident

Daniel says the Assemblies of Yahweh is not affiliated with Qahal Yahweh
Daniel says the Assemblies of Yahweh is not affiliated with Qahal Yahweh

The Assemblies of Yahweh in Dominica has said it is in no way involved in a service during which a young man lost his life recently in Canefield.

Lynn Williams died last Friday after he encountered some difficulty at a church service being held at Samaan Park.

Police reports had said the service was being staged by the Assemblies of Yahweh.

But Stanley Daniel, who describes himself as a local leader of the Assemblies of Yahweh in Dominica, said this is far from the truth.

“While we sympathize in the young man’s death, we would like to set the record straight,” he told DNO.

According to Daniel, the service was being hosted by the Qahal Yahweh, of which Williams was a member.

He said the Assemblies of Yahweh in Dominica is affiliated to the group’s headquarters in Bethel, Pennsylvania and is no way associated with Qahal Yahweh.

He stated that the Assemblies of Yahweh is a registered international assembly and the Dominica branch is affiliated to it only.

Daniel said other branches of the Assemblies of Yahweh have been asking questions and raising concerns over the incident.

    Organized religion is the means to control the minds of the simple minded and poor. How else would u be able to rationalize with a poor man into accepting the fact that he being without comforts of this life is ‘gods’ plans, while the rich get richer….hmmmm

    Daniel that Assemblies of Jaweh is a family business of the Meyers in Bethel Pensylvania and you foolish enough to collect money to send to
    them from our poor peopel? They must be laughing their heads off in Bethel, all the way to the bank. Now I understand why the Holy Bible is so popular, the best seller of all time, a lot of people making a lot of money out of that.

      Hello :) . Firstly, they are not called the Assemblies of Jaweh. They are called the Assemblies of Yahweh. Secondly, the Assemblies of Yahweh is the Truth and if you know anything about this faith you’ll know that they give away much of their literature for free so people can have the opportunity to acquire the knowledge they need to find out for themselves what the Truth is. Since Yahshua our Savior also kept the law perfectly he would’ve also tithed and given offerings. I would understand people not wanting to tithe or give offerings to groups which are in false doctrine, but I implore you to look in to the Assemblies of Yahweh and you’ll find that there is no religion on the face of the earth that is as doctrinally sound as this ministry. Because the Assemblies of Yahweh abide by the Truth, the Spirit of Truth is leading and guiding this organisation. Unfortunately, many other groups have arisen seeking to only glean followers for themselves, yet do not abide by all the truth.

    Jehovah God or Yahweh is my concerned about religion . His concern is what have we done about the gift that He gave to man at Calvary. That is what we will have to answer to, did we receive or reject His Son. No religion will be mentioned on that day. We like greenness so much, yet God made His Son as a free gift to us, yet we rather follow religion instead of accepting His Son. John 3’16 and 17

      The apostles had a particular religion. The Israelites had a particular religion. In several places in the Bible it is called the Assemblies of Yahweh. Do you know what the Great Commission is? The Great Commission mentioned in Matthew 28 requires that the truth is taught, and that people are baptized in to the Name of Yahshua. Belief therefore has to be manifested by action and Ephesians 4 tells us there is one true Body. How could the truth be proclaimed throughout the world if it wasn’t for religion? Religion is simply worship organised. If you want a disorganised, confused worship, where people do not adhere to sound doctrine, or know when the Holy Days are, or what we can eat, or how to keep the Laws, then sure be my guest and reject religion. Elder Jacob O. Meyer sought a religious group that was seeking to please Yahweh exactly the way the Bible instructs and he didn’t find it. Therefore the Assemblies of Yahweh came in to being. Reject religion and you reject the ‘one fold’.

    God help us with this religion thing. It is like a poison! The Kingdom of God is not about religion, yet still we continue to make distinctions…I am sorry but I don’t like religions. Show me someone filled with wisdom and knowledge in the spirit and I will tell you it is someone I want to rub shoulders with. Sigh

      The apostles were religious. They adhered to a religion. People were brought in to the faith, whilst others were ex-communicated. Are you greater than they? And since they will be sitting and guarding the gates of the New Jerusalem, don’t you think it important to think like they do? I don’t know why people should have a problem with religion except they want to do whatever they want to do.

    I would summarise my observations on this most controversial issue with three points:
    1.The Elder had every right to correct the Police inaccuracy in stating the wrong fellowship.

    2.The Elder however should have both tempered and balanced his”clarification” to the media with a more sympathetic and expressive note of sympathy to the grief-stricken relatives followed by a simple explanation that they were however not the same fellowship,period! The “setting the record straight” and ” being in no way associated with” bytes, were simply quite unnecessary on such an occasion.
    It was this insensitivity on his part which seemed to have given DNO the legitimacy and the gusto in making this inciting headline .

    3.The distancing gesture could be interpreted ( Yahweh forbid) as a calculated sort of subtle discredit of the other Yahweh group based on some rivalry factor between the two.On that,I hope I am wrong.

    • CLARIFICATION
      October 16, 2014

      Bro Benjamin
      Very good post. But the Pastor was not the one who talked about distancing. He offered a clarification and the word distancing was the choice of word of the media. The media have a way of influencing and swaying their readers by their choice of words.
      Dont get swayed like us simple souls.

      I personally do not see where Mr Daniel said anything that was wrong. He simply clarify the name of the group involved. He expressed his sympathy with the grieving family. Is it the way that the article was written by the reporter that caused the issue? Calm down people and do not add mre to it!!

He sympathized with the death of the young man and had to clarify. Nothing is wrong with that as both sect have been saying that they are not affiliated.

    That’s what religion will do to us. Divide us, confuse us and cause us to blame each other. Dominica is too small to have all of these different religions which take us nowhere. Religion keeps us in a box. We are not free to read conscious books that will free and elevate our minds and cause us to realise who we are. It is the twenty-first century and we are still bound by the white man’s religions. Can you imagine that what you believe in is headquartered in Bethel, Pennsylvania? What about the monies collected in the church? Is that sent to Pennsylvania too? How ignorant have we become! Sending hard-earned monies to those one may never know. The brainwashing continues inspite of all the information out there about religions. We have become eternal slaves to the master’s religions and we are not willing to change. That’s the sad part.

      The Assemblies of Yahweh is the Truth and when you recognise this, one has no problem tithing or sending offerings. They all go in to the purpose of spreading Yahweh’s Truth throughout the earth. I don’t live in Bethel either, I live many thousands of miles away, yet I gladly offer tithes and offerings because I know that this organisation is the Truth. You may try to come across as enlightened, that you say religion should be rejected, but I assure you no-one with such an attitude has received the Holy Spirit. I know the Assemblies of Yahweh is the Truth. As a result, I hate claims made by naysayers that there is no true Body on this earth.

    But the gentleman expressed sympathies. And is only offering clarification, most likely because he has received calls and attention relating to this matter. What is wrong in clearing the air on this. What is this thing about us that causes us to react in this manner! Is it a stolen moment to feel that we are better than others, in this case Pastor Daniel? Or are we so much on the look out, for when a brother of the ‘cloth’ falters that we can jump out from our dark corners and shout; ‘aha, I see you..I catch you..i got you now… you are no better than me! This unnecessary outrage against this gentleman is misplaced and uncalled for. Can Doctor Griffin Benjamin or any known Psychologist address this undesired behavior?

      Perhaps it did come across as a big cold, but this leader is simply as paramount trying to protect the Assemblies of Yahweh from something that could affect adversely on the good reputation of this ministry. The third commandment suggests we should do what we can to bring honor to Yahweh’s Name. Since the Assemblies of Yahweh is Yahweh’s true Body, I can understand why Daniels said what he did. At the same time I am sure that he and the rest of the ministry are deeply grieved over the fact that a life has been lost, even if that person was not affiliated with the Assemblies of Yahweh.

    First, I would like to sympathize with the Williams family. Mr Daniel, wrong timing period. Why jump ahead and attempt to answer any questions before all the facts are known? Right now you have drawn more attention to yourself and the church. Sir, do you ask your followers to discuss your religion with only members of your church, because they can be seen walking from house to house and the question is never whether I am Catholic or Baptist, instead it is would you like something to read; we are all God’s children and so is Lynn. Therefore, if there is any liability “Fear not for God did not give his children a spirit of fear” and if you would only allow God to do his will because of your faith everything would be alright. I wish you would reconsider your position with a letter of apology and declare your sympathy to the family. That would be so much better, I look forward to reading your follow up letter.

      I agreed with most of the things said, but where you said we are all God’s children is a myth, one only become a child of God after he/she trust Jesus Christ as Lord and personal Saviour. John 1:12; 3:16; Romans 5:1-2; 8:1. One must recognise he/she need the Saviour (Jesus Christ is the only Saviour) and personally ask Him to save you. For this reason He died on the cross to saved all who trust in Him.

      • October 16, 2014

        Who made you judge of your later comments? Sometimes when I look around and read my bible I realize we are the ones who complicate God’s message. He always chose the down-trodden men and women to shame the proud and supposedly powerful. So, calm down and seek God’s wisdom and you will find the message in what I said. The focus should actually be on Mr Williams to highlight how proud we should all be given how driven many young people are to other lifestyles. I admire Lynn for being a young man who seek God and to not be deterred by all the distractions that keep young people from the church.

          Hi :) . Yahshua the Messiah called Yahweh ‘Father in heaven’. We address Him as He. The Bible has the answers. Yahshua said that he did not come to send peace on the earth but a sword. Not all religions are the same. Only one religion has the truth and that is the Assemblies of Yahweh. If you want to be in the Kingdom of Yahweh, you have to be subject to Yahweh. Yahshua said B-road is the way that leads to destruction. Yahweh has his True Religion on this earth. It is up to you to accept it, and if you do not, then you are more than welcome to follow the majority on the path that leads to destruction.

      Rasta….the gentleman you are referring to is not the now famous Daniel. As a matter of fact, the man who usually carries the big placard is part of the Assembly where the young man died. Daniel, on the other hand, is part one of those who sit and listen to a dead man (Elder Jacob O Myer) on TV Saturday after Saturday, and not even the Daniel himself can preach at his assembly.

        Hi Yahwist :-| . Can I just say you are coming across as very disrespectful. If you do believe in using the Name Yahweh as your name suggests, I would ask that you consider the third commandment and be mindful of your comments. Yes Elder Jacob O. Meyer of blessed memory is a “dead man” but he was a righteous person and righteousness in the world is a precious commodity. I don’t even live in the U.S either, I live in Europe, yet I can tell from listening to Elder Meyer’s sermons that he had a good heart and he was a strong commandment-keeper. He preached over 5,000 messages, should we simply discard those messages? Further, what do you think was the point of Elder Meyer through the Holy Spirit choosing to record his messages? Was it not that should something happen to him, or that Yahshua would tarry, the Assemblies of Yahweh could continue in strength? You have no respect to the righteous dead, so why bother read the Bible? All the people in the Bible are also dead.

      They are so many different religions who are in false doctrine. Look at all the damage the House of Yahweh cult did to the Name of Yahweh. Daniels first and foremost priority is to protect the Assemblies of Yahweh name, which he did. You might disagree but when you come to realise the AOY is the Truth then it becomes clear why Daniels said what he did. It is easy to criticise leaders but unless you are in their shoes or know what they have said or done outside news articles like this you should “zip it”. It’s a horrible thing that someone has died, but this seems to be a thing among groups which are in false doctrine, sad to say. May Yahweh comfort the grieving family. Maybe people on the comments here should stop criticising the AOY which has done absolutely nothing wrong and start criticising the groups which aren’t in sound doctrine.

      The Bible tells us there will be one true faith. Sure, feel free to reject religion, but how then do you expect to be baptised, have your sins forgiven and receive the Holy Spirit, walking in newness of life? In the Book of Proverbs it says: “There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, And yet are not washed from their filthiness. 13 There is a generation, oh how lofty are their eyes! And their eyelids are lifted up.”

      These describe people who reject religion. And actually, reject the Assemblies of Yahweh.

      A man of God you say? God knows better. Do not be deceived. How many men of God are there with different religions in little D/ca? This is the problem. Too many different religions in Dominica. What division and disunity? Woe to those who form their religions in D/ca. Dominicans are supposed to be smart people but as soon as someone forms a religion in D/ca, they are able to influence some of them to renounce their religion, especially their Catholic faith and join them, taking short-cuts to the Most Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ. There are no short-cuts to the Heart of Our Lord. Those who take that path will be extremely disappointed to their eternal detriment.
      Our Lord warned us about taking short-cuts. It is like a thief who jumps over the fence to get to the house. He does not use the gate.
      Our Lord said, “Many will come in My Name … so as to deceive the elect.”

        Hi The Facts. I think you have misquoted from the Word. If everyone were to stay in the religions to which they were born, the apostolic assembly would never have grown.

        And by the way, the Roman Catholics are way off track.

        Some scriptures to consider:

        “39 Search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which bear witness of me;”

        “Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, examining the Scriptures daily, whether these things were so.”

        “Quench not the Spirit; 20 despise not prophesyings; 21 PROVE all things; hold fast that which is good; 22 abstain from every form of evil.”

        The Assemblies of Yahweh is the only organisation that premises its doctrines four square on the Bible. You should feel privileged that the Assemblies of Yahweh exists in Dominica. Study the articles and material of the AOY and you’ll see that they are indeed the Truth.

But who is to say that the AOY are not sympathetic? You read one very short article and you want to jump on the bandwagon and claim “They’re not loving! Religion is bad!” The AOY are a loving people.

      It is easy to manipulate uneducated people. A quotation from a famous person is all it takes because they confuse fame with credibility.

      The life of Marx was certainly not what you would call successful. His family was a disaster. In spite of his education he spent his time writing essays and books few would buy at the time. It has been said he could scarcely afford the cigars he smoked while writing.

      The political system he created terrorized the free world but was considered unworkable by many before the century was out because it was never able to produce the utopia it promised.

      A famous Canadian poet – Milton Acorn – himself a socialist and student of Marx – told me in reality Marx was not an atheist. His bitterness towards religion sprang from his disappointments with the church of the day.

      Yes, he said religion is the opium of the people. I prefer a statement believed to have come from St. Paul in the first century. He said the gospel of Jesus Christ was AN ANCHOR OF THE SOUL, BOTH SURE AND STEDFAST. (Hebrews 6:19) For over 50 years it has been that and more to me in all the storms of life!

        with all due respect, Reverend but there are no such organization in European and Americas history which achieved such excellency in manipulation as Christian Church…moreover Church was inspiring European colonialism, violent conversion of indigenous people into Christianity…Church even managed to maintain relations with Hitler during Holocaust…so please Reverend don’t play this card for uneducated people ‘K Marx politik terrorized free world’…Americans inspired by fundamentalist M Keynes created so much atrocities around the world like Operation Condor (mass killing in Latin America..), like mess in the Middle East….so please Reverend you are barking up on wrong tree…

      Sam you are so wrong. Daniel belongs to a cult with sits every Saturday and listens to a sermon by a man, Jacob O Myer who died sometime ago. Not even Daniel himself, or any other man from his assembly can preach on a Saturday when they have services. All monies collected for tithe and offering by Daniel and his crew is sent out to the so-called headquarters. Daniel needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

      Our God’s Name is, Our Almighty Father, Our Heavenly Father.
      It appears they are against calling him that. It is not Christian-like.
      Remember when Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us to pray as contained in the New Testament, He said, “Our Father (who art) in Heaven.” Not Yahweh.
      Those who call God, Yahweh are not Christians. They either have not yet accepted Our Lord as King and Savior or they have rejected him. I do not want to judge them but if they die in this manner, when they do they will regret it. For one, they will not find Yahweh.

    so now i get the reason y DNO posted this. Its the juicy lines that were editted outfrom the first publication. That man cya seriously be calling himself a Yahwist if that’s the mentality he wan have about a simple misunderstanding.

      :lol: :lol: :lol: Ask him, was he a Catholic who renounced his faith to join this cult? He is under the yoke of a man he does not know and may never see, the head of his cult in the USA. He better renounce this type of religion for the good of his immortal soul.

    October 15, 2014

    So DNO find they have to post the fact that they got a wrong witness on there. There are different sects of Yahwist assemblies in D/ca. Yáll got the wrong sect, big deal. why is that even a headline? Yáll just wanna get people to think that all Yahwists are denying that the guy was on religious business. Smh!! Disgusting

    • The Facts
      October 16, 2014

      All those types of religions in D/ca? How sad. Is it any wonder that there is not much love, peace and unity and crimes have increased in a worst way than before when there were few religions? People were happier and more peaceful. With all those religions D/ca should be a godly nation with godly people overall. I do think these people have brought a curse on Dominica and nationals.
      St. Paul warned us about them. He said, “Reject them!” Smarten up Dominicans!
      God is patient!

    DNO why not try to contact the press secretary for heaven to see if all these churches are legit and really sending the money they collect to god. I can only imagine how much more expensive it is running the heaven operation. Angels working overtime to answer every prayer, heaven have to send representatives to every church to listen to them telling god for 2-3 hours how much he is so great -don’t you think that God knows that .Then there is a investigative department checking out every sin committed;judges working everyday as man dying every minute; there is treasury department making sure that the pastors really build the roof with the moneY they collect; transportation cost. If there was only one religion I am sure that heaven would cut it operation cost by 75%. Our prayers would be answered much more quickly,politicians wouldn’t take our money and share it among a hundred different churches to get votes. There would be no wars.
    It’s funny how they fight for members but the moment you dead the factions disown you. I guess dead man cyan put money in the collection basket.

      You appear to be a brilliant person. You should know they are not legit. They are all fakes. It takes a spiritually enlightened person to know that. Our Lord did not establish such churches and so many of them with their own style and fashion of worship. Anyone could read/study the Holy Bible in the confines of their home and at any time.
      When Our Lord came to earth, some accepted him and some rejected him. Later, from Luther and Henry VIII, if you know their history, they formed their churches.
      Later on many more religions sprouted up, too many of them. None of these were approved, blest and established by God as much as they will think and project. They have deceived many people, their followers. I only hope that their followers who predeceased us, God had mercy on them for their ignorance.
      As for their deceased leaders, well, I do not have confident where their souls are in eternity for also renouncing their faith, forming their own church, amassing followers, living off their avails and getting rich as they proclaim God. This was their intentions of forming their church. I suppose on Judgment Day we will know.
      Our Lord told us about false prophets. Therefore, D/cans must beware of all those people who infiltrated our beloved island and falsely indoctrinated them to join their churches. It has not helped D/ca in anyway and by no means spiritually. I am stating further that God is displeased. He has/is taking note of their ways.
      In addition, St. Paul said, “We do not go where Jesus was already proclaimed.” It is in the Bible! Our Lord was already proclaimed in D/ca. This is how foolish those people are. They preach the Bible but they are not that well-conversant with it. D/ca does not need all those religions. God help Dominica and nationals if more religions sprout up there.

        You are making a grave mistake. There is only one true Church; not several. Therefore, choose that one which you may have been baptized in anyway, made First Holy Communion and Confirmed.

    Stupes! All Mr. man had to say is the Assemblies of Yahweh is different from Qahal Yahweh, and the young man that died is from Qahal Yahweh. Who cares about affiliation? Is this relevant? Did the deceased die as a result of a questionable religious practice? Too much religion and not enough godliness.

          The thing is people do play the blame game, that’s why Daniels said what he did. He was sympathetic towards Lynn but also had a duty to protect the Assemblies of Yahweh reputation, after all, this is Yahwehs Truth.

        October 15, 2014

        I could say the same thing about Christianity and all those Catholics, pentecostals, CUM, Adventists too. There will always be different denominations. Calling the same name doesn’t mean all doctrines are the same but that man just rude n outta place talking about Qahal Yahweh tryna cause confusion. By what? Having an incident from Natural causes on a camp? Seriously Daniel? BTW DNO please provide the real cause of death and stop using the juicier headline!

          Hi anon. Are you referring to the Catholics? The Catholics claim they were established around 300 CE at the Council of Nicaea but the name of the original assembly of the Israelites was the Assemblies of Yahweh. There is no group on the face of the earth that is in more sound doctrine than the Assemblies of Yahweh.

      • David
        October 20, 2023

        It is works that show us whether we are worshipping the true mighty one or not. The Assemblies of Yahweh is indeed in sound doctrine, therefore we can say we are worshipping the true Mighty One. They are other groups even in the Sacred Name Movement that use the Name Yahweh but they do not keep all the commandments so are they really worshipping Yahweh or are they worshipping something else. Just because we know the Name doesn’t mean we will be saved.

        What do the scriptures say?

        “Not every one that says to me, Master, Master, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Master, Master, did we not prophesy by your name, and by your name cast out demons, and by your name do many mighty works? 23 And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work lawlessness.“
