SCOFIELD; PHARISEES; MODERN ISRAEL

I’ve had basically one bible my entire Christian life, over 35 years. I’ve spent countless hours reading it, studying it, making notes in the margins, teaching from it and “thumping” people on the head with it. And yet, no book has caused me more confusion than the Scofield Reference Bible.

Little did I know that my confusion was in large part the result of so-called Christian seminaries and so-called Christian leaders, some of whom are listed on the frontispiece of this reference Bible, using Scofield’s work, wittingly and unwittingly, to lead astray countless millions of Christians for over 100 years now, myself included. How could such a deception go undiscovered for so long by so many who should have known better? It was not until my understanding of the REAL BIBLICAL ISRAEL of Scripture, was my confusion removed.

The fact is, the Zionist Jew Samuel Untermeyer was the go between – between Scofield and the Zionist backers, alleged to be the Secret Six – that enabled a true deadbeat dad – Scofield – to produce the work that bears his name. This infamous Bible reference work [which is in fact Oxford Press' property, another deception], and has been used to deceive so many, for so long, should be enough proof for anyone with a working brain cell to realize the extent to which the so-called Jews [Revelation 2:9; 3:9] have gone in their deception of their number one enemy, the people of Yahweh. And, the fact that so many Christian leaders of so many denominations have been a part of this deception, should be a warning to any who love the truth; these men are not men of God.

Very few people like being lied to, but Americans have been lied to and deceived most of our lives about virtually every important topic, issue and event in our history. Americans were dragged into WWI through the blackmailing of Woodrow Wilson by Samuel Untermeyer and Louis Brandeis, which resulted in the Balfour Declaration and the eventual creation of the misnamed State of Israel. This same Zionist, Samuel Untermeyer, was the driving and supporting force behind the deadbeat and all around scoundrel C.I. Scofield’s Reference bible which has been used to dupe millions of unsuspecting decent Americans into supporting that criminal Zionist state of Israel.

Americans fought WWII against Zionist financed Nazi Germany, and then gave most of Eastern Europe over to the remaining Jewish communist Bolsheviks of Russia (Khazars). The murder of the Tsar and his family and then millions of Russians and Ukrainians was virtually ignored in our history classes all the while the myth of the six million, Jews allegedly murdered by the Germans in so-called gas chambers was repeated ad nausea. Today, anyone who “denies” that bogus “fact” of history, faces possible imprisonment in Mannheim Germany for “holocaust denial” but not before a farcical trial wherein truth is not a defense, as Ernst Zundel and his brave attorney, Sylvia Stoltz very well know.

Our nation’s politicians are bought and paid for with billions of borrowed dollars we supply the Zionist nation of Israel which is then, in part, funneled back into our country through the American Israel Political Action Committee and used to bribe our politicians in the guise of “campaign contributions.” Our political whores then send our military to fight expensive treasury depleting wars of aggression for this criminal Zionist network in the Middle East and elsewhere.

These same Jewish criminals planned and executed – with the assistance of neocon co-criminals within our own government – the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. These people are only fooling the stupid with their officially approved and provided conspiracy theory. This ridiculous official government conspiracy theory, that is, that “19 Arabs with box cutters” planned and pulled off 9/11 has been used as the excuse to wage war against “terrorists” who “hate our freedoms” around the world, most notably right here in the United States, where ordinary American citizens are now considered, by their own government, to be terrorists.

These same Jewish criminals are now in the process of pillaging what is left of the wealth of the United States through their criminal financial system – the corner stone being the Federal Reserve System, which is, as mentioned earlier, nothing more than a private banking cartel owned by the Jewish Rothschild family and their cohorts at JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs and others, used for almost 100 years to control our nation. “Give me control of a nation’s money supply, and I care not who makes the laws.” As quoted by Baron Nathan Meyer Rothschild. Does the reader understand the significance of the power these Jewish bankers have over our lives through the monopoly control of our nation’s money supply? They print the entire world’s reserve currency out of thin air. And yet the wealth of such families as the Rothschild family is never mentioned when the world’s richest men are listed. Never.

The financial destruction of the once respected United States of America was not an accident, but an orchestrated purposeful plan carried out over many decades by a Satanic worshipping, money loving, diabolical den of vipers, who have accepted the tempting temporal offer of riches, power and world domination, a New World Order, in exchange for their eternal souls, by their G-d, Lucifer, the very same offer that was rejected by Jesus Christ in the wilderness.

The Leaven Of The Pharisees
Matthew 16:6 KJV  Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

After painstakingly gathering more than 17 pages full of references, looking for every occurrence of “Pharisee(s),” “Sadducees,” “Herodians,” “chief priest(s),” “scribes,” “teachers (experts) of the law,” “elders, “high priest,” “Sanhedrin,” “the council,” “the, senate,” “rulers,” “synagogue ruler,” etc. I was quite struck by the fact that the majority of the New Testament, would NOT have been written in the manner it was, had it not been for the overt hypocrisy of the Pharisees and their co-religious, associated hangers-on.  Almost everything that Jesus said and did in the New Testament was a form of confrontation with the Pharisees – in one way or another.

The pitched battle between Jesus and all these sympathetic religious groups, is woven throughout almost every page of the four synoptic gospels and their indirect influence continues throughout the Book of Acts and on into many of the later Epistles. This begs the question of WHY were the most scathing words of Jesus reserved for the Pharisees and their religious counterparts? What was it about this particular group that was so vitally important, that He was constantly trying to admonish and alert His people?  He was warning about the Pharisees and their spiritual/religious contemporaries, manifested in our age, in the form of today’s Talmudic Jews. And the warning was as vital and relevant then, as it is today!

To Jesus’s listeners, leaven was a sign of evil. It represented kneaded dough from leftover bread, which had slowly fermented. Fermentation together with its tell-tale odor, was thus associated with putrefaction where in rabbinical literature, leaven was recognized as causing decay and so became a symbol of sin, a representation of the slow, gradual corruption of human nature. This leaven to which our Lord refers, is described as affecting the whole lump because evil will in fact, spread throughout the Church until at last, in the days before Christ’s return, it will reach everywhere, and all will be contaminated by its influence. It will be pervasive, just like the final stages of any terminal cancer.

Once again, Jesus explained that when He spoke of the “leaven of the Pharisees,” He wasn’t literally talking about yeast or bread. Instead, what He meant by this interesting comparative reference, was that the Jewish religious leaders had replaced the original “doctrines” of God with the subjective “traditions of the fathers/elders,” and that gradually throughout the years, these false, subjective interpretations would totally corrupt the true Law/Word of God.

The failure of the Pharisees to appeal to THE Scripture as the absolute standard for their conduct was at the root of many other issues for which our Lord condemned them. Their rejection of Jesus for performing miracles on the Sabbath was a result of that false concept. Their many attempts to trap Him in speech were not the result of a close investigation of His actions in light of Messianic OT prophecy, but because He was perceived as violating their occult TRADITIONS and so posed a direct threat to their authority. Their self-righteousness and pride was as a direct result of these self-appointed shepherds, looking to their interpretive traditions as the standard for judgment, rather than God’s Law/Word.

The opposite of righteousness through faith, is righteousness through works, which can also be called righteousness of the Law – or man’s self-righteousness. The Pharisees with their outwardly pretentious prayers, sanctioned by their subjective traditions, were an abomination to God as compared to the true, quiet reverence demanded of His people. (Matthew 23:13-14; 6:5-8) When Jesus warned us to; “Beware of the LEAVEN of the Pharisees” (Luke 12:1, Mk. 8:15, Mt. 16:6), He was describing the hidden mysticism of the Zohar, Cabbala, and the Sefer Yetzirah (oral laws). Because at the root of what the Pharisees (Talmudic Jewry) had firmly established, was the deliberate occult negation of all that He taught, and is THE reason why He charged them with blasphemy against the Holy Spirit – the unpardonable sin.

Dr. Israel Shahak, in his work, “Jewish History, Jewish Religion” and Bernard Pick in “Jesus in the Talmud,” (pp. 57; 105-106), have both confirmed the overt hate and blatant racism contained in the Talmud and any Jews who deny their existence within their holiest book are liars. Neither the modern popes nor the modern heads of evangelical Protestantism, have ever insisted that the rabbis of Judaism repudiate or condemn the racism in the Talmud or the murderous hate for Christ and Christians expressed within it. “For fear of the Jews.” On the contrary, the blind guides of Churchianity have urged their sheeple to love, honor and obey these unbelievably evil, degenerate, blasphemous followers of the Talmud. Therefore, it should be quite evident that today’s leaders of Christendom are by default, the worst betrayers of Jesus Christ on earth. (Cf. Matthew 23:13-15; I Thess. 2:14-16; Titus 1:14; Luke 3:8-9; Rev. 3:9).

“Someone may think that I am saying too much, but on the contrary, I am not saying too much, but too little – for I see their writings. They curse the Goyim (a non-Jew) and in their synagogues and prayers they wish the non-Jews every misfortune. They rob us of our money and goods through their usury, and they play on us every wicked trick they can. And the worst of it is that they still claim to have done right and well, that is, to have administered God a service, and they teach the propagation of such things. No pagan ever acted thus; in fact, no one acts as evil except the devil himself, or whomever he possesses, as he has so possessed the Jews.  “On the Jews and their Lies” by Martin Luther.

Once they are seen for what they are, the ubiquitous presence and culture destroying nature of the Jew is obvious to the point of revulsion. Indeed, there is a reason why the founding fathers of America, as well as other world-renowned philosophers, writers, entrepreneurs and great leaders throughout history have warned against them. Many have openly scorned the Jews as the most dangerous enemy to Western cultural integrity and European values. Others have merely depicted them as the most lecherous and deceptive creature there is.

Here are but a few of those who understood the Jewish mindset:  Jesus Christ; F. Scott Fitzgerald; Fyodor Dostoevsky; Immanuel Kant; Ralph Waldo Emerson; Mark Twain; Charles Lindbergh; Arthur Schopenhauer; Winston Churchill; Adolf Hitler; Napoleon; Martin Luther; Wilhelm II; Richard Wagner; H.H. Beamish; Martin Heidegger; Henry Ford; H.L. Mencken; Henry Wallace; William Shakespeare; Gen. Ulysses S. Grant; St. Thomas Aquinas; Henry Adams; George Bernard Shaw; Gen. William Sherman; Franz Liszt; Truman Capote; G.W. Hegel

Let me repeat it again, Orthodox Judaism is rooted in the “traditions of the elders” (later codified as the Mishnah, comprising the first portion of the Talmud), and NOT the Mosaic Law which these “traditions” nullify, as Jesus Christ repeatedly and emphatically stated to the Pharisees, who are the founders of rabbinic i.e. Orthodox Judaism. Rabbi Jacob Neusner and other prominent Jewish spokesmen are on record as acknowledging Judaism’s Pharisaic patrimony. Jesus declared to the Pharisees that they were guilty of failing to follow Moses: “For if you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. But if you will not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?” (John 5: 45-47). Could Jesus be wrong?

The Judeo-Christian Myth
Since the end of WWII, we have been bombarded from all sides with references to the Western world’s “Judeo-Christian religion,” and to a so-called “Judeo-Christian heritage.” Both church leaders and scholars forever tell us that our society is based on a supposed “Judeo-Christian tradition”. This notion of a “Judeo-Christian religion” is an unquestioned – almost sacrosanct part of both secular and church thinking. American Christian leader Prof. Franklin H. Littel, a vocal supporter of the illegal Zionist state, frankly declared that “to be Christian is to be Jewish,” and that consequently it was the duty of a Christian to support the “land of Israel” above all else.

Pat Boone, the North American singer and evangelist, said there are two kinds of Judaism, one Orthodox and the other Christian. The very term “Judeo-Christian” is a mischievous misnomer without the slightest historical or Scriptural validity.

Rabbi Moshe Maggal of the National Jewish Information Service said it all in 1961 when the term “Judeo-Christian” was relatively new, “There is no such thing as a Judeo-Christian religion. We consider the two religions so different that one excludes the other.”  In fact the Early Church knew of no such “Judeo-Christian” tradition.

Dr. Albert M. Gessman, writing in the Winter 1969 publication of the conservative Jewish journal, “Issues” and after contrasting critically almost nine pages of glaring differences between Judaism and Christianity to the disadvantage of the latter and after reviewing the back-grounds of both religions, he concludes that, “A Judeo-Christian heritage or tradition in the proper sense of that hyphenated word does NOT exist; it has no foundation in historical fact.”

Confusion over the origins of Rabbinic Judaism and Christianity is at the very root of the Judeo-Christian myth. In fact, Christianity and Judaism are two distinct and utterly divergent religious inheritances, despite all the superficial attempts by modern “scholars” to manufacture a naïve and convergent “Judeo-Christianity.”

Bible Prophecy And The State Of Israel
Extracts from “Biblical Prophecy and The State of Israel” by William W. Baker.
“As a young boy attending a Church of Christ Sunday School class, I can recall being taught that the Jews of the world were special and that all the Jews of the world were “returning to their homeland” by creating the current state of Israel. Somehow, I was told, the creation of an Israeli state was “fulfilling prophecy.” My teachers made no mention of the exclusionary philosophy of Zionism, and also totally overlooked was the small but important fact that the ancient land of “Palestine” was now, as it had always been, inhabited by millions of peaceful, productive, God-honoring Palestinian Arabs. No doubt my teachers then, as well as many Christian believers today, knew little or nothing of the political, historical, and even Biblical background of the Middle East.

As one who remained within the “mainstream” of what is known as “New Testament Christianity” usually understood to include Churches of Christ and Independent Evangelical Christian Churches, and who later taught a few years in a “loyal” Christian College. I soon discovered that most of my fellow believers either embraced a hodgepodge of popular eschatological gibberish, or they simply chose to remain “uncommitted” when it came to the subject of fulfilled prophecy, Christianity and Judaism, the Israeli- Zionist state and the Arab world, and even the second advent of Christ. I soon discovered that the majority of those who held a definite “conviction” about the “end times” were adherents of what is known as Premillennialism. Most theological dictionaries define Premillennialism as the belief of premillenearians who “believe in the imminent return of Christ, to be followed by a thousand years of peace during which Christ will reign over the earth.

Millions of believers embrace this man-made dogma, not as a result of intensive Bible study, utilizing the important tools of hermeneutical principles, but primarily from reading and believing such unscholarly but popular “prophetic soothsayers” as Hal Lindsay and his “The Late Great Planet Earth” or “Satan is Alive and Well.” Still others become adherents of millenarianism out of ignorance of the Scriptures and the belief that it must be true – for so many people believe it, including such high profile Christian “leaders” such as Billy Graham and Jerry Falwell, etc.

The importance of false teaching concerning Biblical prophecy became readily apparent to me during my first visit to Israel as an undergraduate student working at various archaeological sites such as the Temple Mount and ancient Tekoa in 1968. I was quite disappointed to discover that many Israeli citizens are not only non-religious, but atheistic. It was during that summer and many years to follow that I was to observe one of the most brutal and inhumane governmental policies in existence. I saw young Palestinian children beaten, interrogated and arrested for singing songs about Palestine and their longing to be free; families evicted from their homes, lands seized under the guise of “National Security;” all of this done by “God’s Chosen People” or so I had been led to believe.

Upon returning to the United States I found most Christians supportive of such ungodly activities, because the “Jews” are returning to their homeland to prepare for Christ’s return. Indeed, the prevailing eschatology of our time teaches that the Arab people (Palestinians) are “demons of Satan” and any who oppose Israel oppose the Lord Himself! Suffice it to say there exists a great need to expose and correct some of the more unscriptural and patently false teachings so popular today.”

Jews Are Pharisees – Not Israelites
We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth. . . For my part, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst; and to provide for it.” – Patrick Henry

The simple facts are that after the death of Solomon, the Kingdom of Israel was divided into two kingdoms. The Northern Kingdom – composed of ten (10) tribes, with the capital at Samaria, called “Israel,” and the Southern Kingdom – composed of only two (2) tribes (Judah & Benjamin), with the capital at Jerusalem, called “Judah.” Both of these Kingdoms went into Captivity, Israel was deported by Assyria and Judah deported by Babylon, due to sins of pride and rebellion.

Saul was a racial Israelite of the tribe of Benjamin, a Roman citizen – born in Tarsus and studied the “Traditions of the Elders/Fathers” (Gal 1:14) under the Pharisee named Gemaliel, in Jerusalem during his youth and became the “golden haired boy” of the controlling Jewish establishment. At this time, prior to his conversion, Saul was a vicious, Pharisaic antichrist-type who persecuted the followers of “The Way” to their deaths, arresting both men and women and throwing them into prison whenever the opportunity arose. Paul wrote:

“You have heard of my earlier CAREER in Judaism – how furiously I persecuted the Church of God, and made havoc of it; and how in devotion to Judaism I out-stripped many men of my own age among my people, being far more zealous than they for the TRADITION OF MY FOREFATHERS” (Galatians 1:13-14, Weymouth Translation)

Clearly while in Judaism, Saul persecuted Christians due to his intense hatred for believers, because of his total commitment to the fraternity holding to the “traditions of the fathers.” Paul, although a Judean, at that time was a Jew BY RELIGION ONLY!
Please carefully read it again, “And profited in the Jews’ RELIGION above many of my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.” (Galatians 1:14 KJV)

When Paul became a Christian, HE CEASED BEING A “JEW” in the religious sense, simply because Pharisee-ism, (Judaism, Jewry) TOTALLY CONTRADICTED EVERYTHING he now stood for as an Apostle of Christ.  In fact, this very system of religious/cultic legalism called “Jewry” was something of which even Jesus Himself would NOT participate.  This is so incredibly important to understand!!!

. . . . “After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would NOT WALK IN JEWRY, BECAUSE THE JEWS SOUGHT TO KILL HIM.” (John 7:1)

These “Jews” who were determined to KILL Christ were the cozy, religious (freemasonic) boys club establishment of the Scribes and Pharisees who held considerable political power during the time of the brutal Roman occupation of Palestine, where Jesus openly condemned their status-seeking and carnal, ego-centric attitudes.

 “According to the Talmud, Jesus was executed by a proper rabbinical court for idolatry, inciting other Jews to idolatry, and contempt of rabbinical authority. All classical Jewish sources which mention his execution are quite happy to take responsibility for it; in the Talmudic account the Romans are not even mentioned.” Jewish History, Jewish Religion: The Weight of Three Thousand Years by Professor Israel Shahak

The fact is that after the death of Herod the Great, (a pro-Roman, pro Pharisee/Edomite Jew descended from Esau, who tried to kill Christ when He was a child) Judea was reduced to a Roman province under a procurator. Despite the occupation however, the Pharisees were given near total autonomy in dealing with what was deemed as “religious matters.” It was under the fifth procurator, Pontius Pilate, that Jesus Christ was crucified, by order of the Pharisees of which the Sanhedrin was the supreme ruling/decision-making body. It was these JEWS who ordered the death of Christ. The “Jews” referred to, meant the high priests, the Sanhedrin, the scribes and the Pharisees, all of whom earned the scorn of our Lord because of the total abuse of their authority. The religious establishment saw The Lord Jesus as a threat to their power base because he was becoming popular with the people, who had several times sought to make him their king.

Hence the term “Jew” refers to the followers of this Pharisaic system of religionized law based on men’s traditions and upon generations of subjective interpretations of God’s Law/Word that ultimately became “Talmudic Judaism.” It was and still is, a powerful, influential and liberal religious sect where only a select and privileged few are invited to join. “Judaism denotes the Jewish faith in its extravagant form of blind attachment to rites and traditions, and national exclusiveness. This must have been prevalent in the time of Christ, because of His constant exposure of their formalism and self-assumption, and because in John’s Gospel ‘the Jews’ is used as synonymous with opposers of Christ and His teachings.” (The Popular and Critical Bible Encyclopedia, Vol. II, (1901), p. 999).

Visualizations Of The Kingdom Of God

VISUALIZATIONS OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD

The Seeds of the Kingdom:  Good and Bad

Matthew 13:24-30 NET  He presented them with another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a person who sowed good seed in his field.  (25)  But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.  (26)  When the plants sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.  (27)  So the slaves of the owner came and said to him, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?'  (28)  He said, 'An enemy has done this.'so the slaves replied, 'Do you want us to go and gather them?'  (29)  But he said, 'No, since in gathering the weeds you may uproot the wheat with them.  (30)  Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First collect the weeds and tie t hem in bundles to be burned, but then gather the wheat into my barn."

The enemy can either be Satan or false teachers energized by Satan or demons.  It can also be someone who distorts the gospel of the Kingdom. According to sources, darnel or wild wheat and domestic wheat look exactly alike until they bear fruit. The wild seed has a dark grain, while edible wheat has a light brown grain.  The farmer ordered the harvesters to delay the separation of the wheat and darnel (weeds).  I have read that the roots of the grain and darnel are so intertwined that it is virtually impossible to pull up one without uprooting the other.  The same difficulty will appear in human separation and intervention.  It is not always possible for a person to distinguish the saved from the unsaved – only God has that ability, therefore He will do the separating.

There is no way for humans to entirely know the hearts of other humans.  One of Satan's most effective schemes is religious activity.  People appear to be spiritual but they are inwardly not.  The wheat and tares look alike, but time reveals the difference. Many people are fooled by religious appearances masquerading as true spirituality.  Only the grace of God can help believers understand the fakery and resist error.

Satan is not able to uproot the true wheat (Christians) so he plants counterfeits among them.  The good seed is the Word of God but in this parable the good seed represents true believing Christians.  The field is not necessarily human hearts but is the world of the Kingdom of God.  When a true believer is planted, Satan plants a counterfeit.  The churches have many counterfeit “Christians” with a counterfeit gospel.  At the end of the age there will be a counterfeit Christ known as the beast or man of sin.  We must work against Satanic influences and expose the lies of false gospels, but we must also sow the Word of God and bear fruit in the place where He has planted us.

God will gather the tares together and burn them at the end of the age.  It is difficult to tell the false from the true today, but the angels will separate them and place them into the lake of fire.

The kingdom of God (heaven) designated by the church is not going to be a perfect representation.  That which is not true, that which is not genuine, that which is false will arise within the Church, that is, the tares will be there with the wheat.

The Great Mustard Tree

Matthew 13:31-32 NET  He gave them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.  (32)  It is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest garden plant and becomes a tree, so that the wild birds come and nest in its branches."

The mustard seed is a small garden seed and a relatively small leafy plant.  The Kingdom of God began with one man, Jesus, sowing the seed in the garden of Judea.  However, this normally modest plant becomes a great tree.  It grew bigger than what it really is intended to be.  This depicted parabolic mustard plant has an abnormal growth until it resembles a tree or a world empire.  The end of the age tree has little reference to its beginnings as a humble plant.  Its vastness and lack of true substance now allows wild birds to make their homes within it.

The wild birds represent Satan and his demons with their untrue versions of the gospel.  Its complex organization with many branches is filled with organizations that do not represent the Kingdom of God.  It has become an abnormal forced thing of man, not representative of the true righteous kingdom of heaven, and it will become a shelter for all kinds of evil purposes, as the church has been used today as a shelter for all kinds of evil purposes.

Some make this parable teach the worldwide success of the Gospel. But that would contradict what Jesus taught earlier. If anything, the New Testament teaches a growing decline in the ministry of the Gospel as the end of the age draws near.

So here the Lord forewarned the disciples that during His absence the kingdom would experience a phenomenal growth. They should not be deceived nor equate growth with success. It would be an unhealthy growth. Though the tiny seed would become an abnormal tree, its largeness would become “a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird” as the end of the age mystery, Babylon.

He shouted with a powerful voice: "Fallen, fallen, is Babylon the great! She has become a lair for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detested beast.

(Revelation 18:2 NET)

The Flour and the Yeast

Matthew 13:33 NET  He told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen." 

This parable has been interpreted in two diametrical opposite ways:

(1)  The Incorrect Interpretation:  The yeast is the gospel of the Kingdom or the Church as it starts very small but gradually develops and grows until it influences the whole world for good.  In agreement with this thesis the Utley Commentary says:  In the OT yeast was often a symbol of evil, but here it was an obvious symbol of the pervasiveness and growth of the Kingdom of God.  In disagreement the Chuck Smith Commentary states:  As I look at the world today, I cannot honestly rejoice for the tremendous effect that the world has received from the influence of the church. I look at a sick world; a world that seems to me is getting sicker every day. I have difficulty with that particular interpretation.

(2)  The Correct Interpretation:  The use of leaven in the New Testament is an unhealthy ingredient and is symbolic of sin and/or evil.

Three measures of meal was the exact amount customarily used in a grain offering to God, and leaven (which always is a picture of evil and sin in the Bible) has absolutely no place in a grain offering.  The idea of hiding leaven in three measures of meal would have offended any observant Jew. This would certainly not be a picture of the church gradually influencing the entire world for good.

The mustard seed of the previous parable illustrates the false outward expansion of the kingdom, while the leaven illustrates the inward development of false doctrine and false living. Throughout the Bible, leaven is a symbol of evil. It had to be removed from the Jewish homes during Passover (see Exodus 12:15-19; 13:7).

Bread made without yeast must be eaten for seven days; no bread made with yeast shall be seen among you, and you must have no yeast among you within any of your borders.  (Exodus 13:7 NET)

Yeast (or leaven) was excluded from the sacrifices (Exodus 34:35), with the exception of the loaves used at the Feast of Pentecost (Leviticus 23:15-21).

Jesus used leaven to picture:  hypocrisy;

Meanwhile, when many thousands of the crowd had gathered so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, "Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.  (Luke 12:1 NET)

False teaching;

Then they understood that he had not told them to be on guard against the yeast in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

(Matthew 16:12 NET)

Paul used leaven to picture carnality in the church (1Corinthians 5:6-8) and false doctrine (Galatians 5:9).  Sin is like leaven (yeast): It quietly grows, it corrupts, and according to Paul, it “puffs up” (KJV) or makes one arrogant (NET).

Some have become arrogant, as if I were not coming to you. But I will come to you soon, if the Lord is willing, and I will find out not only the talk of these arrogant people, but also their power.  (1 Corinthians 4:18-19 NET)

 It would seem that making the growth of the leaven a picture of the spread of the Gospel throughout the world would violate the meaning of this important symbol. It would also contradict the other parables concerning yeast.

Satan has worked hard to introduce false doctrine and false living into the ministry of the Word of God. From the very early days of the church, true believers have battled false doctrine and hypocrisy.

The kingdom of God (heaven) began with the sowing of the Word of God in the hearts of men. Much of the seed did not bear fruit; but some was fruitful. Satan opposed the work of God by sowing counterfeit Christians, by encouraging a false growth, and by introducing false doctrine.
