About This Web Site ...

"If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve Yahweh, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh." (Joshua 24:15)

This Web site was created to help spread Biblical truth. There are no hidden agendas nor are there any pleas for money. I don't pretend to have all the answers. No one but God has all the answers. But He has given us wisdom and understanding through His Spirit in order to discern His word that He may teach us His ways.

God — the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob — is calling to those who would seek Him; those who are tired of the ways of man, those who seek to draw near to Him in the simple manner in which He intended in the first place. The end of this world as we know it is drawing near. The Lord is getting ready to establish His Kingdom in the midst of the earth. Now is not the time to be chasing dreams, or following man-made, man-led religions.

There are many wrong teachings and misunderstandings in regards to the word of God ("the Scriptures"). The truth has been suppressed for far too long. The Lord is revealing His word in these final days, even as the messenger of God declared to Daniel, "Many will be purged, purified and refined, but the wicked will act wickedly; and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will understand" (Daniel 12.10). Many people have suffered severe spiritual abuse at the hands of "Christian" leaders. Others have become entangled in traditions that have no Biblical basis — many, in fact, that are taken directly from pagan practices. Others have been taught to focus on themselves instead of God. It is time to see what the word of God says — plain and simple, without any outside influence, placing it in its original setting, and seeing it through the eyes of the Spirit of the Holy One.

One of the most important paths in regaining the truth is to go back to the original writings of the Scriptures (as far back as we can), and understand it in its original Hebraic setting, with a Hebrew mindset. In doing so, we are better able to understand the original intent of what God brought forth in these writings, rather than an interpretation, which may or may not have a preconceived agenda. The Scriptures are easier to understand when we place them in their original, Hebraic setting, rather than forcing them into a Western, Greek mindset.

The name of this Web site — shamar — is a Hebrew word. It means "to keep, guard, observe, give heed" It appears in the following Scriptures, among others:

"Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?' Then I said, 'Here am I. Send me!'" Isaiah 6.8

My name is Lee Underwood. The Lord has called me to serve Him as a vessel in His holy work. His work has brought me to many places, both physical and spiritual. I am not a scholar. I am just a man who seeks to do the will of Yahweh. I seek only to glorify the Lord by helping others as He has given me wisdom and understanding to do, by utilizing the gifts He has given me as a writer, a teacher, and a musician.

Please feel free to use this Web site in any way that glorifies the Lord. Do not hesitate to send me your comments, questions, and suggestions.

May the Lord bless you in all that you do and may all that you do glorify the Lord.
