Step Up to the Microphone

Back to Basics

We’ve been lead to believe thanks to modern misinterpretation of the scriptures that we can have some sort of lawless behavior and get into the Kingdom of Heaven.  Sadly 99% of this belief system is from taking verses out of context and not connecting them to verses surrounding them in either previous chapters, passages, or even books of the Bible.  For instance in Romans chapter 3 he builds up a case for not needing the Torah it seems like but ends that thought in verse 31 by stating your faith should establish the Torah which ties into chapter 2 verse 13.  We must remember these letters weren’t written with verse and chapter, they were written in a free flowing message from beginning to end in reference to letters written to Paul that he had to answer.  We must also tie history and culture of the areas written to in to the context of the letter; for instance Galatia, Ephesus, and Colossae all had rampant pagan temple worship hence the Acts 15 council being held.  In fact believers converting from pagan practices and Jews were the minority in those areas so them not doing what everyone else was doing such as not participating in Saturnalia or Ishtar festivals, celebrating new moons, and seventh day Sabbath keeping was weird and questionable to the majority much like it is in today’s culture.  We also forget ALL men will be judged by the same measuring stick at the end and we have multiple witnesses to this throughout the Bible and this doesn’t even include the Apocrypha.  So it’s time to get back to the basics and figure out 3 major things:
 
What we’re being judged on
Who Messiah is
And finally will there be a separate “Gentile” law (Gentile means nations)
 
We must answer these questions thoroughly and make sure we have no question as to the answers, we must also remember the Apostles and Messiah did not have a New Testament to teach from.  They had to teach everything from the original Hebrew scriptures which are now called the “Old” Testament which is a term created by man not by the Almighty.
 
 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohiym, and guard his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.  For Elohiym shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. 
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
 
For not the hearers of the Torah are just before Elohiym, but the doers of the Torah shall be justified. 
Romans 2:13
 
Yea, a man may say, You have faith, and I have works: show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 
James 2:18
 
Seeing it is one Elohiym, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.  Do we then make void the Torah by faith? Never: yea, we establish the Torah. 
Romans 3:30-31
 
And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and She’ol delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.  And death and She’ol were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the cepher of life was cast into the lake of fire. 
Revelation 20:13-15
 
 
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which guard the commandments of Elohiym, and have the testimony of Yahusha Ha’Mashiach.       
Revelation 12:17
 
 
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 
Revelation 22:14
 
We will be judged by what we do and what we believe in fact Deuteronomy 18:15-19 makes it clear that everyone that wants life MUST believe in and obey the prophet like Moses whom we know to be our Messiah.
 
Yahuah Elohayka will raise up unto you a Prophet from the midst of you, of your brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;  According to all that you desired of Yahuah Elohayka in Chorev in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Yahuah Elohai, neither let me see this great fire anymore, that I die not.  And Yahuah said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.  I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto you, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.  And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.  But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name,which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other elohiym, even that prophet shall die. 
Deuteronomy 18:15-20
 
First things first before we delve into Messiah and who He is and was we must first bring to remembrance or teach for the first time something very important regarding Messiah and the Apostles which if you hear correctly will change your perspective.  If they changed one letter or punctuation mark of the Torah or told you it was dead and done away with they’d be false teachers per the Deuteronomy 13 test.
 
 IF there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and gives you a sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spoke unto you, saying, Let us go after other elohiym, which you have not known, and let us serve them; You shall not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for Yahuah Elohaykem proves you, to know whether ye love Yahuah Elohaykem with all your heart and with all your soul.  Ye shall walk after Yahuah Elohaykem, and fear him, and guard his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.  And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he has spoken to turn you away from Yahuah Elohaykem, which brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust you out of the way which Yahuah Elohayka commanded you to walk in. So shall you put the evil away from the midst of you. 
Deuteronomy 13:1-5
 
We must also not forget the commands not to add to or take away from the Word and to guard it, to keep it close.
 
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may guard the commandments of Yahuah Elohaykem which I command you. 
Deuteronomy 4:2
 
I know that, whatsoever Elohiym does, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it: and Elohiym does it, that men should fear before him.
Ecclesiastes 3:14
 
Every word of Eloah is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.  Add not unto his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar. 
Proverbs 30:5-6
 
And if any man shall take away from the words of the cepher of this prophecy, Elohiym shall take away his part out of the cepher of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this cepher. 
Revelation 22:19
 
So now we see clearly some things:
There’s a judgement stick
Don’t change the rules of the judgement aka don’t remove words from it or pick and choose which part of it you will follow.
 
 
Now lets look at who Messiah told us he was when he was wearing a flesh suit.
 
Yahusha said unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.
John 14:6
 
The Way
And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.

And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the Way of Truth shall be evil spoken of. 
2 Peter 2:2
 
Lest you learn his ways, and get a snare to your soul. 
Proverbs 22:25
 
I have chosen the Way of Truth: your judgments have I laid before me.
Psalms 119:30
 
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall guard the Way of Yahuah, to do justice and judgment; that Yahuah may bring upon Avraham את that which he has spoken of him. 
Genesis 18:19
 
Make me to go in the path of your commandments; for therein do I delight. 
Psalm 119:35
 
 
The Truth
 
Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and your Torah is the Truth. 
Psalm 119:142
 
O send out your light and your Truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto your holy hill, and to your tabernacles. 
Psalm 43:3
 
He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you trust: his truth shall be your shield and buckler.
Psalm 91:4
 
The lip of truth shall be established forever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment. 
Proverbs 12:19
 
And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the Tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
Isaiah 16:5
 
Life
 
Only be sure that you eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and you may not eat the life with the flesh. You shall not eat it; you shall pour it upon the earth as water. 
Deuteronomy 12:23-24
 
See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil;  In that I command you this day to love Yahuah Elohayka, to walk in his ways, and to guard his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that you may live and multiply: and Yahuah Elohayka shall bless you in the land whither you go to possess it. 
Deuteronomy 30:15-16
 
And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to guard to do, all the words of this Torah.  For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over the Yardan to possess it. 
Deuteronomy 32:46-47
 
For his anger endures but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. 
Psalm 30:5
 
For with you is the fountain of life: in your light shall we see light
Psalm 36:9
 
 O bless our Elohiym, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: 
Which holds our soul in life, and suffers not our feet to be moved. 
Psalm 66:8-9
 
Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: guard her; for she is your life. 
Proverbs 4:13
 
 For the commandment is a lamp; and the Torah is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: 
Proverbs 6:23
 
For whoso finds me finds life, and shall obtain favor of Yahuah. 
Proverbs 8:35
 
He is in the way of life that guards instruction: but he that refuses reproof errs. 
Proverbs 10:17
 
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that wins souls is wise. 
Proverbs 11:30
 
The Torah of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. 
Proverbs 13:14
 
The fear of Yahuah is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
Proverbs 14:27
 
In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favor is as a cloud of the latter rain. 
Proverbs 16:15
 
He that follows after righteousness and mercy finds life, righteousness, and honor.
Proverbs 21:21
 
Are we seeing who Messiah is now?  He is the Torah and yes the Torah was nailed to the cross by ALL mankind not just the Jews.  He came for the lost sheep of Israel which aren’t of blood but of spirit and to bring them back to the covenant made with them at MT Sinai to be renewed with one change, He will put His law on our heart.
 
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.   He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
John 1:10-11
 
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.  For everyone that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.   But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in Elohiym. 
John 3:19-21
 
 
 
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of Elohiym, even to them that believe on his name:   Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of Elohiym.
John 1:12-13
 
 These twelve Yahusha sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the other nations, and into any city of the Shomeroniym enter ye not:  But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Yashar’el. 
And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. 
Matthew 10:5-7
 
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Yashar’el. 
Matthew 15:24
 
Yashar’el is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Ashshur has devoured him; and last this Nevukadne’tstsar king of Babel has broken his bones. 
Jeremiah 50:17
 
 
For thus says Adonai Yahuah; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.   As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.  And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Yashar’el by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.  I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Yashar’el shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Yashar’el.   I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, says Adonai Yahuah.  I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. 
Ezekiel 34:11-16
 
Hear the Word of Yahuah, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Yashar’el will gather him, and guard him, as a shepherd his flock. 
Jeremiah 31:10
 
We see that only the lost sheep of Israel are to be searched for and it’s not those born of blood but of spirit.  This is what Fullness of the Gentiles means; the fullness of those who make a citizenship change to Yahuah from the world to become Israel.  Now lets look at why we’ve been led astray:
 
My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace. 
Jeremiah 50:6
 
There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.  Her priests have violated my Torah, and have profaned my holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my Shabbaths, and I am profaned among them.   Ezekiel 22:25-26
AND the Word of Yahuah came unto me, saying,  son of A’dam, prophesy against the prophets of Yashar’el that prophesy, and say unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the Word of Yahuah;   Thus says Adonai Yahuah; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own ruach, and have seen nothing!   O Yashar’el, your prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.  Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Yashar’el to stand in the battle in the day of Yahuah.  They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, Yahuah says: and Yahuah has not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.  Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, Yahuah says it; albeit I have not spoken?   Therefore thus says Adonai Yahuah; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, says Adonai Yahuah.
Ezekiel 13:1-8
 
Now here’s one thing we need to set straight and it should be part of the basics and that’s once we have belief in Messiah and our faith grows we are to be keeping one law, native born and sojourner;
 
And when a stranger shall sojourn with you, and will keep the Pecach to Yahuah, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.   One Torah shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourns among you. 
Exodus 12:48-49
 
One Torah and one manner of law shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourns with you. 
Numbers 15:16
 
Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am Yahuah Elohaykem. 
Leviticus 24:22
 
nd if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the Pecach unto Yahuah; according to the ordinance of the Pecach, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
Numbers 9:14
 
 Ye shall have one Torah for him that sins through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Yashar’el, and for the stranger that sojourns among them. 
Numbers 15:29
 
There is neither Yahudiy nor Yavaniy, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Yahusha Ha’Mashiach.
Galatians 3:28

The Roman Road vs Jerusalem Road

I read these Roman Road verses in the mainstream Christian way of thinking which is out of context and very easy to take out of context without a firm foundation on the Old Testament. You can’t read these verses and dismiss the rest of the letter Paul wrote. But to understand Paul you must know he was a Pharisee, raised in a Greek city, and knew Torah in and out. He also called the law a delight, not a burden. He told us to walk in the law out of love knowing we would screw up but not intentionally. He quoted the Torah and Psalms quite often to make his points but without studying those you’d never realize that. He points to the Torah over and over as something that’s good but as Peter warned us unstable men who don’t know the scriptures will pervert them for their own gain and the Roman Catholic Church and Protestant churches have done so with great abandon putting in place the teachings of men over the teaching of God.
 
So here’s the first verse that’s quoted now let’s put it in context:
 
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
 
If you continue reading the chapter Paul tells you point blank in no uncertain terms our faith should establish the Torah in verse 3:31.
 
Do we then make void the Torah by faith? Never: yea, we establish the Torah. ROMAIYM (ROMANS) 3:31 את CEPHER
 
Now we must understand the Hebrew word for faith before going on or else you’ll miss the entire point of why I walk out the Torah in the parts that I can and walked out of Sunday church.
 
The Hebrew word for faith is אמונה (emunah - Strong's #530) and is an action oriented word meaning "support". This is important because the Western concept of faith places the action on the one you have faith in, such as "faith in God". But, the Hebrew word אמונה places the action on the one who "supports God". It is not a knowing that God will act, but rather I will do what I can to support God.
 
https://www.ancient-hebrew.org/definition/faith.htm
 
But Elohiym commends his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Mashiach died for us. ROMAIYM (ROMANS) 5:8 את CEPHER
 
Now we have to define what the Bible defines as sin. Luckily the Apostle John defines it for us quite clearly.
 
Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the Torah: for sin is the transgression of the Torah. YOCHANON RI'SHON (1 JOHN) 3:4 את CEPHER
 
So Romans 5:8 is pointing to the fact that we should not be transgressing the Torah anymore because Messiah took on that burden of death for us.
 
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of Elohiym is eternal life through Yahusha Ha'Mashiach our Adonai. ROMAIYM (ROMANS) 6:23 את CEPHER
 
Ok so the curse of the transgression of the law is death, did you know it’s required to obey Jesus in the Torah.
 
Yahuah Elohayka will raise up unto you a Prophet from the midst of you, of your brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; According to all that you desired of Yahuah Elohayka in Chorev in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of Yahuah Elohai, neither let me see this great fire anymore, that I die not. And Yahuah said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto you, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them את all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. DEVARIYM (DEUTERONOMY) 18:15-19 את CEPHER
 
And we were told at least twice the Torah will not pass away just because we nailed him to the cross. In fact we are told it will be in effect until heaven and earth pass away.
 
Think not that I am come to destroy the Torah, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For amein I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one yod or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the Torah, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Parashiym, ye shall in no case enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. MATTITHYAHU (MATTHEW) 5:17-20 את CEPHER
 
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the Torah to fail. LUQAS (LUKE) 16:17 את CEPHER
 
Then let’s look at Revelation 12:17 and Revelation 22:14 real quick
 
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which guard the commandments of Elohiym, and have the testimony of Yahusha Ha'Mashiach. CHIZAYON (REVELATION) 12:17 את CEPHER
 
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. CHIZAYON (REVELATION) 22:14 את CEPHER
 
The city is Heaven/New Jerusalem and that’s where we are all trying to go right? Also, the tree of life is how we become immortal so it’s saying the commandments need to be done but we do them out of love not duty. We must have testimony from Messiah and guard and do the commandments sent by the Father.
 
That if you shall confess with your mouth Adonai Yahusha, and shall believe in your heart that Elohiym has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto yeshu`ah. For the Scripture says, Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Yahudiy and the Yavaniy: for the same Yahuah over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of Yahuah shall be saved. ROMAIYM (ROMANS) 10:9-13 את CEPHER
 
The Hebrew word belief is also action oriented below is a link to the word to understand what’s being said. It means to stand firm so belief leads to faith then your belief should lead to standing firm in supporting God and Jesus by obeying all of the commands that you can do, you can’t do all of them even Jesus didn’t do all of them while walking amongst men.
 
https://www.ancient-hebrew.org/studies-interpretation/aman-believe.htm
 
Now I wouldn’t go into this depth unless I cared deeply, I don’t want anyone not getting to partake from the tree of life and entering the heavenly city for eternity. This path of understanding has taken almost a year to get to this point right here through diligent studying and reading of my Bible and the Holy Spirit leading me to people who could care less about theology and more about are we walking on the path set forth in the entire Bible. The Roman road is a misguided road started by the Catholic Church that will lead many to destruction by them not seeking truth.

Acts 15

Acts 15 Study
 
This is the chapter where most Christians say following Saturday Sabbath and doing the Torah were done away with without ever having studied in depth the Torah.  Today we are going to dive into this and see point blank where understanding the Torah comes into play.   I will be using the Cepher and TS2009 translations for this study and it will include scriptures from other books so be prepared.
 
Starting in verse 1 it talks of the men of Judah teaching you must be circumcised first to be saved; I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this is true and false at the same time.  Please follow my logic here there are two types of circumcision in the Torah one is of the flesh the other of the heart; see Deuteronomy 10:16 where the ISRAELITES were instructed to circumcise the foreskin of THEIR hearts and to quit being stubborn and also Deuteronomy 30:6 where Yah(God) promises to circumcise our hearts himself which is a prophecy of the New Covenant.  This is the circumcision that must take place first.  Lets use human logic here if I walk in and say hey if you want to be saved I have to lop off some flesh from your male parts to do it you would tell me to go to hell; the first circumcision that is supposed to take place is the circumcision of the heart or in better terms the submission of your mind and soul to the will of the almighty.  Basically you’re allowing the want to heart not the I’m not gonna heart.
 
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. 
Deuteronomy 10:16 CEPHER
 
And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. 
Deuteronomy 30:6 CEPHER
 
 
We see Paul and Barnabus cause a ruckus about this and therefore the Jerusalem council was convened and the met there with the Pharisees that had come into belief and the Apostles.  In this meeting when things were getting hot and heavy Peter/Kepha stood up and told of his dream and gave the interpretation of it from Acts 10 stating no man was unclean.
 
And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Yahudiy to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but Elohiym has showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. 
Acts 10:28 CEPHER
 
Then Kepha opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that Elohiym is no respecter of persons:  But in every nation he that fears him, and works righteousness, is accepted with him. 
Acts 10:34-35 CEPHER
 
So now we see Peter again in Acts 15 gives the same interpretation of the same dream to these men.
 
And when there had been much disputing, Kepha rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago Elohiym made choice among us, that the other nations by my mouth should hear the word of the Besorah, and believe.  And Elohiym, which knows the hearts, bore them witness, giving them the Ruach Ha’Qodesh, even as he did unto us; And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. Now therefore why tempt ye Elohiym, to put a yoke upon the neck of the Talmidiym, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?  But we believe that through the grace of the Adonai Yahusha Ha’Mashiach we shall be saved, even as they. 
Acts 15:7-11
 
The yoke Peter was speaking of were the oral traditions the Pharisees were trying to force on the converts or shall we say green card applicants. We see in Genesis that Abraham believed upon Yah before getting circumcised and that is where Peter was going with his speech.  Abraham was 90 years old before making the covenant of circumcision with Yah but his belief had started much earlier in his life but through his belief he obeyed what he was commanded to do.
 
NOW Yahuah had said unto El־Avram, Get you out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father's house, unto a land that I will show you:  And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing:  And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Genesis 12:1-3 CEPHER
 
 AND when Avram was ninety years old and nine, Yahuah appeared to El־Avram, and said unto him, I am El Shaddai; walk before me, and be perfect. 
Genesis 17:1 CEPHER
 
And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be Elohiym unto you, and to your seed after you.  And I will give unto you, and to your seed after you, את the land wherein you are a stranger, את all the land of Kena`an, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their Elohiym.  
Genesis 17:7-8 CEPHER
 
We see Abraham obeyed therefore the covenant continued with Issac.
 
 And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto your seed את all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; Because that Avraham obeyed my voice, and did guard my watch, my commandments, my statutes, and my Torah. 
Genesis 26:5 CEPHER
 
Peters words silenced them and this gave Paul and Barnabas the time needed to give testimony of the miracles and wonders that had happened on their journey and opened up for James to make his famous declaration first quoting Amos 9:11-12
 
In that day will I raise up the cukkah of Daviyd that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:  That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, says Yahuah that does this.
Amos 9:11-12 CEPHER
 
So in James declaration he stated Torah commands to start the new converts off in the right direction, every command he gave was written throughout the first five books of your Bible.  Look these verses up if you want to prove it:
 
Exodus 20:4
Deuteronomy 16:21 through 17:1
Deuteronomy 23:17-18
Leviticus 17:10-16
 
Now verse 21 is where the racism of Christianity is evident because the that’s Jewish statement is the first thing that pops out of everyone’s mouth without realizing Messiah is from the tribe of Judah.  We see the word SYNAGOGUE in our English translations and without looking at history and understanding what was going on we scream JEWISH JEWISH JEWISH instead of thinking of the reasoning James had therefore declaring James an Apostle to the Jews only.  We must learn what he was getting at and since we’ve learned the context from the beginning of the chapter we must understand that the new gentile converts couldn’t walk into a book store and be like yo you got any of those Torah’s lying around that I can buy.  No normally the only place they could here Yah’s law aka the Torah would’ve been to go to the local congregation aka the Synagogue where it is read every Sabbath/Saturday in small portions.  Now saying this we must remember what our Messiah said about those who read from the “Seat of Moses” in the book of Matthew.
 
THEN spoke Yahusha to the multitude, and to his Talmidiym, Saying, The scribes and the Parashiym sit in Mosheh’s seat:  All therefore whatsoever he bids you guard, that diligently guard and do; but do not ye after their reforms and traditions: for they say, and do not.  For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the tsiytsith of their garments,  And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,  And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Rabbi, even Mashiach; and all ye are brethren.  
Matthew 23:1-8 CEPHER
 
This could go for us to day as well, we need to quit listening to the doctrines of man and look at what the Word says, I mean it did become flesh and die for you after all.  We need to walk out our faith instead of doctrines and teachings of men.
 
We see in verses22-35 that what Peter and James had said was good in the eyes of these men and they sent Paul and Barnabas back out with a letter saying point blank abstain from these things and go to the local Saturday congregation aka the Synagogue in your local area to learn the path to righteousness.  You see when we aren’t letting the Set Apart/Holy Spirit open our eyes and we are letting what we’ve been taught our entire lives control our thought processes then we will never change and open up our hearts for the true circumcision of the heart to happen.  We let the stone to continue building up and blinding us leading on a dark path shrouded with false light.  Messiah told us HE IS THE PATH, He being the walking talking Torah, and we were pointed to it directly over and over again.  When we start walking in His ways with a circumcised heart then all the physical requirements of the “law” become easy and we want to do them and the curse of it being death or more accurately the second death is wiped away by the blood of Messiah.  Will we mess up and let anger take over or give into our worldly lusts from time to time, yes but don’t wallow in them let the Spirit guide your walk and the lust of the flesh will become a thing of the past.
 
Now go dust off your Bible and read it.

The Commonwealth: Discovering Your Identity

The Commonwealth: Discovering Your Identity
 
First things first we need to rethink everything we think we know about the Bible. We know nothing about the Bible except what the Holy/Set-Apart Spirit teaches us. First step of contention are you a Christian or are you an Israelite when you accept Messiah into your heart? (Don’t get confused with the nation that the United Nations setup in 1948, they call themselves Israeli’s). Let’s see what Paul says in Ephesians using the CEPHER Bible, Berean, Study Bible, and the Ling James Bible.
 
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of Elohiym: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Mashiach Yahusha unto good works, which Elohiym has before ordained that we should walk in them. Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past the other nations in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Mashiach, being aliens from the Devariym of Yashar'el, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without Elohiym in the world: But now in Mashiach Yahusha ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Mashiach. EPH'SIYM (EPHESIANS) 2:8-13 את CEPHER
 
8For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.
11Therefore remember that formerly you who are Gentiles in the flesh and called uncircumcised by the so-called circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)— 12remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.
Ephesians 2:8-12 Berean Study Bible
 
8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. 11Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
Ephesians 2:8-12 KJV
 
Not as though the Word of Elohiym has taken no effect. For they are not all Yashar'el, which are of Yashar'el: Neither, because they are the seed of Avraham, are they all children: but, In Yitschaq shall your seed be called. That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of Elohiym: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son. ROMAIYM (ROMANS) 9:6-9 את CEPHER
 
6It is not as though God’s word has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. 7Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”b 8So it is not the children of the flesh who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as offspring. 9For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.” Romans 9:6-9 BSB
 
6Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: 7Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. 8That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. 9For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son. Romans 9:6-9 KJV
 
And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Yashar’el of Elohym
Galatians 6:16CEPHER
 
And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
Galatians 6:16 KJV
 
Peace and mercy to all who walk by this rule, even to the Israel of God.
Galatians 6:16 BSB
 
Ye know that ye were of the other nations, carried away unto the dumb idols, even as ye were lead.
1 Corinthians 12:2 Cepher
 
Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
1 Corinthians 12:2 KJV
 
You know that you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.
1 Corinthians 12:2 BSB
 
This I say therefore, and testify in Yahuah, that ye henceforth walk not as the other nations walk, in the vanity of their mind,  Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of Elohiym through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 
Ephesians 4:17-18 CEPHER
 
This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,  Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 
Ephesians 4:17-18 KJV
 
So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
Ephesians 4:17-18
 
We don’t want to be Israel because the Jews evil practices doing all they can against the Torah makes us run away thinking that’s what the god of the”Old” testament wanted without reading it for ourselves. Paul rebuked them heavily in Romans 2:24 for this:
 
For as it is written, “The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.” Romans 2:24 ESV
 
For the name of Elohiym is blasphemed among the other nations through you, as it is written.  For circumcision truly profits, if you keep the Torah: but if you be a breaker of the Torah, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.
Romans 2:24-25 CEPHER
 
For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. 
Romans 2:24-25 KJV
 
As it is written: “God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.”Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. Romans 2:24-25 BSB
 
As we clearly see here the Torah is profitable if we keep it but worthless to us if we don’t per Paul, and we should be keeping it out of love not duty.  Remember this when reading Paul’s letters and this is why we must build our foundations on the front of the Bible and let the back of the Bible give us the greater depth of what is being said in the front.  If we don’t have a solid foundation then we allow ourselves to be fooled into thinking we are something we are not called to be.  Sadly, that thing we get fooled into believing teaches us to hate our brother because they don’t think the same way that they do; I’ve seen this myself since starting to walk out the entire Word of God.  I’ve been ridiculed and told I’m not saved anymore when in all reality I’m just trying to walk like Yeshua/Jesus did when he was on the earth and that’s exactly how Paul told us to walk in 1 Corinthians 11:1 and he was without blemish walking out ALL the parts of the Torah he could perfectly.
 
Be ye followers of me, even as I am of Mashiach.
1 Corinthians 11:1 CEPHER
 
Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
1 Corinthians 11:1 KJV
 
You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
1 Corinthians 11:1 BSB
 
The other apostles also echo Paul in this because they were ALL sent out to the gentiles/nations to gather the lost sheep of Israel and the other flocks that would want to join her.
 
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat to eat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen. 
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the Besorah to every creature.
Mark 16:14-15 Cepher
 
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 16:14-15 KJV
 Later, as they were eating, Jesus appeared to the Eleven and rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 
Mark 16:14-15 BSB
We will finish with this, the Apostle John echoing the Apostle Paul on walking as Yeshua did.
 
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we guard his commandments.  He that says, I know him, and guards not his commandments, is a liar, and the Truth is not in him.  But whoso guards his word, in him truly is the love of Elohiym perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.  He that says he abides in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
1 John 2:3-6 CEPHER
 
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.  But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.  He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. 
1 John 2:3-6 KJV
 
By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments. If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him: Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked.
1 John 2:3-6 BSB
 
 
Now go dust off your Bible and study it!!!

The Whole Word: Definition of Truth Part 1

We live in a society that picks and chooses how it wants to define and interpret scripture without letting Yah interpret it by what was said in these compilations of books called the Bible from front to back.  We aren’t allowing the Author of the Scriptures speak through it by letting scripture define scripture.  Instead modern churchianity uses the first 1/3 of the Bible as fire starter, fancy book ends, or toilet paper by most quote believers unquote.  There are several things that need to be defined scripturally as we go through this.  This is not the Bible per AW, no this is scripture defining scripture from Genesis to Revelation leaving no scriptural stone unturned and not omitting verses because I don’t want to admit they’re true.  Seeing how the world is turning out we know the entire Word is true so let’s dive in and destroy dispensationalism with looked over and omitted verses and seek Truth.  So lets start by defining Truth Biblically.
 
 
Joh 14:6  Yeshua said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Me. 
 
Psa 119:142  Your justice is righteousness forever, and Your Torah is truth. 
 
Psa 119:160  Truth is the essence of Your word, and all Your righteous rulings are eternal.
 
 Joh 1:1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. 
 
Joh 1:14  And the Word became flesh and pitched His tent among us, and we saw His esteem, esteem as of an only brought-forth of a father, complete in favour and truth. 
 
 Here we see the Truth is the Torah and the Torah is Messiah Yahusha or Jesus if you’re more comfortable with the English transliteration.  This is something we overlook because we start in the back of the book and don’t search the entire Word, we see the Word is Yahusha and he came and dwelt or tabernacled with us in a flesh suit.  So we can’t just use these verses to define the Truth we need to use the entire Word to do so from Genesis to Revelation.  So lets do this thing starting with Genesis 24:27 when Abraham’s servant going to get Rebekah for Isaac.
 
Gen 24:27  And he said, Blessed be Yahuah Elohai Adonai of Avraham, who has not left destitute my adoniy of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, Yahuah led me to the house of my adoniy’s brethren. 
 
Gen 32:10  I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which you have showed unto your servant; for with my staff I passed overאת this Yardan; and now I am become two bands.
 
Exo 18:20  And you shall teach them ordinances and Torah, and shall show them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. 
Exo 18:21  Moreover you shall provide out of all the people able men, such as fear Elohiym, men of Truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:
 
Exo 34:5  And Yahuah descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of Yahuah. 
Exo 34:6  And Yahuah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Yahuah, Yahuah El, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 
 
Deu 32:4  He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: an El of Truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. 
 
Jubilees 1:18 And I shall build My sanctuary 5 in their midst, and I shall dwell with them, and I shall be their God and they will be My people 6 in truth and righteousness.
 
May El Elyon give you all the blessings wherewith he has blessed me and wherewith he blessed Noach and A'dam; May they rest on the sacred head of your seed from generation to generation forever. And may he cleanse you from all unrighteousness and impurity, that you may be forgiven all the transgressions; which you have committed ignorantly. And may he strengthen you, and bless you. And may you inherit the whole earth, And may he renew his covenant with you. That you may be to him a nation for his inheritance for all the ages, and that he may be to you and to your seed an Elohiym in truth and righteousness throughout all the days of the earth. YOVHELIYM (JUBILEES) 22:13-15 את CEPHER
 
There I saw another vision; I saw the habitations and resting places of the qodeshiym. There my eyes beheld their habitations with the angels, and their resting places with the holy ones. They were entreating, supplicating, and praying for the sons of men; while righteousness like water flowed before them, and mercy like dew over the earth. And thus with them forever and ever. At that time my eyes beheld the dwelling of the elect, of truth, faith, and righteousness. Countless shall be the number of the holy and the elect, in the presence of Elohiym forever and ever. CHANOK (ENOCH) 39:4-6 את CEPHER
 
They shall neither change or diminish them; but shall write them all correctly; all which from the first I have uttered concerning them. Another mystery also I point out. To the righteous and the wise shall be given cepheriym of joy, of integrity, and of great wisdom. To them shall cepheriym be given, in which they shall believe; And in which they shall rejoice. And all the righteous shall be rewarded, who from these shall acquire the knowledge of every upright path. In those days, says Yahuah, they shall call to the children of the earth, and make them listen to their wisdom. Show them that you are their leaders; CHANOK (ENOCH) 104:9-11 את CEPHER
 
Jos 24:14  Now therefore fear Yahuah, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the elohiym which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Mitsrayim; and serve ye Yahuah. 
Jos 24:15  And if it seem evil unto you to serve Yahuah, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the elohai which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the elohiym of the Emoriym, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahuah.
 
 
1Sa 12:22  For Yahuah will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it has pleased Yahuah to make you his people. 
1Sa 12:23  Moreover, as for me, far be it that I should sin against Yahuah in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way: 
1Sa 12:24  Only fear Yahuah, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider את how great things he has done for you. 
 
1Ki 17:17  And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him. 
1Ki 17:18  And she said unto Eliyahu, What have I to do with you, O man of Elohiym? Are you come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son? 
1Ki 17:19  And he said unto her, Give me your son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed. 
1Ki 17:20  And he cried unto El־Yahuah, and said, O Yahuah Elohai, have you also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son? 
1Ki 17:21  And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto El־Yahuah, and said, O Yahuah Elohai, I pray you, let this child's soul come into him again. 
1Ki 17:22  And Yahuah heard the voice of Eliyahu; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived. 
1Ki 17:23  And Eliyahu took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Eliyahu said, See, your son lives. 
1Ki 17:24  And the woman said to Eliyahu, Now by this I know that you are a man of Elohiym, and that the Word of Yahuah in your mouth is truth.
 
2Ki 20:1  IN those days was Yechizqiyahu sick unto death. And the prophet Yesha`yahu the son of Amots came to him, and said unto him, Thus says Yahuah, Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live. 
2Ki 20:2  Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto El־Yahuah, saying, 
2Ki 20:3  I beseech you, O Yahuah, remember now את how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight. And Yechizqiyahu wept sore. 
2Ki 20:4  And it came to pass, afore Yesha`yahu was gone out into the middle court, that the Word of Yahuah came to him, saying, 
2Ki 20:5  Turn again, and tell Yechizqiyahu the captain of my people, Thus says Yahuah, the Elohai of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will heal you: on the third day you shall go up unto the house of Yahuah. 

Off the Cuff

This isn't what I was planning but when the Father says do this then do it; these are notes I wrote the other day that go with this episode.
Call me crazy, call me fallen from grace, call me a Judaizer, call me whatever your heart desires it won’t offend me. I’ve been doing as the Bereans did and found God’s Law, the Torah, is good, isn’t far from my heart, and brings life just like it says it does in Deuteronomy, the Psalms, and Proverbs. The Apostles even said it brings life and walked it out.
This walk of salvation I’m walking in fear and trembling has brought me to studying history, looking deeper at what Messiah said, learning context, understanding Biblical culture, and lead me to someone who grew up in Orthodox Judaism and left it, which is what Messiah was fighting against during his ministry, and walks out Torah and professes Messiah loudly and proudly. He fights against what is now called the Talmud, which is the oral law that Messiah fought against, that Orthodox Jews claim is above the Word of God and we know that’s not the case.
This I do know, the modern day church is following in the footsteps of Ephraim/Israel under Jeroboam and doing violence to the word by claiming its dead, done away with, and nailed to the cross without actually studying it and digging into history and culture of the Bible then it just makes stuff up. If we were being honest and actually studying the Epistles of Paul and teachings of Messiah in context from understanding the Torah and the prophets we would see more clearly but we’ve allowed the very wall the Jews built in the temple to keep the Gentiles out to remain standing and the hatred towards each other is growing deeper and deeper.
We aren’t called to be Pentecostal, Baptist, Methodist, non-Denominational, Messianic Jews, Christians, or any other name you can throw out there. We are called to be followers of Messiah which means we do what Messiah taught and did and from reading what he taught and did and seeing Isaiah 42:21, Matthew 22:37-40, Luke 16:17, and Matthew 5:17-21 know he magnified Torah and brought deeper meaning to it not abolish it. I’ve pulled these from the Peshitta Bible because they say the same thing as your Bible but with greater depth and understanding.
21The LORD was pleased, for his righteousness’ sake,
to magnify his law and make it glorious. Isaiah 42:21
17Do not think that I have come to revoke The Written Law or The Prophets; I am not come to revoke but to fulfill. 18Amen, I say to you that until Heaven and earth will pass away, one Yodh or one Taag and will not pass away from The Written Law until everything will happen. 19Everyone therefore who violates one of these small commandments and will teach thus to the children of men will be called small in the Kingdom of Heaven, but everyone who will do and will teach the same will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20For I say to you, that unless your goodness will exceed that of the Scribes and the Pharisees, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
Matthew 5:17-20
37Yeshua said to him, “You shall love THE LORD JEHOVAH your God from all your heart and from all your soul and from all your power and from all your mind.” 38“This is the great and the first commandment.” 39“And the second which is like it is, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' 40On these two commands depend all The Written Law and The Prophets.”
Matthew 22:37-40
 

Ignorance and the Man of Lawlessness

Ignorance of the Word
In this this life we are given choices of blessing and curses and ways to achieve either one through the Word of YHVH yet we overlook how to achieve either one and continue in the curses due to ignorance.  If you believe the entire Bible to be true you will find the blessings and curses in the Torah very clearly, what you won’t find is a burdensome law unable to do, Deuteronomy 30:11, Romans 10:5-8(quoting Deuteronomy 30:11-14) tells us its easy and close to our hearts if we choose it and Jesus tells us His yoke is easy and burden is light in Matthew 11:30 referring to Torah.
  It is time for us to wake up to the entire of word of our Creator and press into it so we have oil to fill our lamps in these end times and not be left at the door beating, banging, and crying out to the devastation going on in the world surrounding us.  We are told repeatedly to not be ignorant of the Scriptures (remember the Apostles only had the “Old Testament” the “New Testament” was not written yet) but instead to lay them on our hearts and to commit them to memory so lets look at what the Bible says about ignorance.
There will be a time here soon where YHVH will no longer overlook us overlooking His written word, remember we are told He doesn’t change and we see this beginning in Genesis with the offerings presented by Cain and Abel, the separation of clean and unclean animals on Noah’s Ark, how he treated Abraham’s faith through obedience and so on.  He is no longer going to let us walk in ignorance and we are seeing this in the world now.  Joel 2: 28 is happening now and more and more people are seeking the ancient NARROW path.  See the following verse on ignorance.
30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,
Acts 17:30
Another issue we have is all these 30,000 plus doctrines and it seems we have new doctrines popping up every week in different churches that help promote ignorance of what was said of old in the Torah. We have doctrines now that just tickle ears and don’t feed us meat so we are left hungry and empty thinking we are full when we are not.  Our interpretation is dark and we really need to quit walking in our “gentile” ways and instead get back on the path and walk in the ways of the Father and the Son.  Quit hardening your heart to the full gospel!!!
14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.17 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart.
Ephesians 4:14-18
 
In the following verse we see that we need to quit being conformed to passions of our former ignorance.  I’ll level with you I was very ignorant of the word before I heard the TRUMPET blast earlier this year while at work and learned of the blessings of Ephraim and Manessah in which YHVH is blessing the world.  Through the revelation of Messiah we are saved and once we do so we see we have a new path to walk that’s actually an old path.   In the book of Revelation 12:17 it makes it clear that we are to keep the COMMANDS of YHVH and hold to the testimony of Jesus Christ or in Hebrew Yeshua.  We are told to think clearly and to set our hope fully on the grace of Messiah and to be set-apart or holy due to it.
13 Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 14 As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, 15 but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
1 Peter 1:13-16
Our actions will silence the ignorant, what’s one major flaw of any “New Testament” church?  We can’t silence anyone because our works don’t align with the Bible even atheist help the homeless and needy, the world sees us as hypocrites who go to church on Sunday then go back and merge into the world and do as they do the other six days of the week.  We are to be free through the commands of YHVH and that means walk in HIS ways because they teach you how to walk in freedom and how to be a servant to the Most High.  Since changing my ways to the Torah I’ve had people see a difference in my actions and have their interest peeked, they’re seeing bright light where darkness and dim light used to prevail; they’re seeing true spiritual freedom not anger, rage, and coldness as they had used to see.
15 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. 16 Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants[d] of God.
1 Peter 2:15-16
Look at what the Apostle Paul wrote in chapter 10 of Romans that people have zeal for God but don’t have knowledge of Him or His ways and seek to establish their own righteousness and in verse 4 we see if the  word end is translated correctly it should read aim or purpose not end. It can be translated end but in the correct context it shouldn’t be end there.  In other words Christ exalted the law in how He walked it out so we could learn from His walk.
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 For Christ is the aim of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Romans 10:1-4
These verse from Paul we struggle with in our western mindset especially verse 36, we fail to realize YHVH used the Hebrews and the Hebrew mindset to write the scriptures and think we are teach them in our western Roman/Babylonian/Greek mindset.  We also forget that YHVH establishes order and purpose to everything not chaos.  Again, Americans, Europeans, or any other culture group that’s not Hebrew weren’t used to write the scriptures we must listen to our Creator on this and learn His intended mindset.
36 Or was it from you that the word of God came? Or are you the only ones it has reached? 37 If anyone thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that the things I am writing to you are a command of the Lord. 38 If anyone does not recognize this, he is not recognized. 39 So, my brothers, earnestly desire to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues. 40 But all things should be done decently and in order.
1 Corinthians 14:36-40
Remember YHVH took time to wake you up so don’t push the word at those still asleep instead be a gentle light for them to see; be like Jesus/Yeshua and let the light exude from you and draw them in to where YHVH can wake them up.  Also, don’t fret over those who have already passed away and dwell on their lives, if they were of Messiah we will see them again.
13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord,[d] that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 
1 Thessalonians 4:13
We will end with this, knowledge comes from YHVH and it says so in HIS word especially in the first five books of His word.  So it’s time for us to quit ignoring those books and saying the laws and right-rulings are done away with and for us to fully grasp what He has said from the beginning that He desires us to be SET-APART to Him a nation of priests and a HOLY or SET-APART NATION as described in Exodus 19:5-6, not to be like the rest of the world and right now we are in exile.  To do this we must dive in and gain understanding, we must learn of the blessings bestowed on Ephraim and Manasseh and how they pertain to what our Messiah said about His lost sheep in John 10:14-16; in those verses He doesn’t speak of the Jews but of the lost 10 tribes of Israel that will be supernaturally woken up in these times we are living in now and will walk in the ways of Yeshua who walked out Torah perfectly for one who was also in exile.
Man of Lawlessness Study
This study will help discover who the anti-messiah is and he’s been in our minds and hearts since the days of Yeshua (you think of Him as Jesus).  There are multiple scriptures and we will break them down and find out who this imposter is.
 
Matthew 5:17-20
Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or the Prophets, I did not come to destroy but to complete.
For truly, I say to you, till the heaven and the earth pass away, one yod or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.
Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.
For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees you shall by no means enter into the reigns of the heavens.
V17: Destroy>G2647 Kataluo> destroy, dissolve, to come to naught
V17: Complete>G4137>Pleroo> Confirm, Fully preach, complete, end, verify, fulfill
In the following verses Yeshua states none of the Torah, not one dot, will pass until Heaven and Earth pass away until everything in the LAW/TORAH and the PROPHETS is completed.  Reading the Prophets there is still much to be done when Yeshua returns to rule in the Millennial Kingdom.
Yeshua has only completed the portion of the suffering servant which would be the first 3 feasts, He must return to rule for a thousand years with a rod of iron.  He must come back to teach the Torah to the world and complete the last 4 feasts and their meanings.
See Isaiah 2:2-5
See Micah 4:1-7
Matthew 7:13-29
Many will enter the wide gate due to false teachers teaching a false doctrine
You will recognize the false teachers by their fruit; are they well versed in both the “Old” Testament and the “New” Testament?
Can they answer your questions and be accurate to scripture especially the Old Testament and the Torah
G5578 pseudoprophetes: false teacher, speaks in God’s name with no authority to do so.
G4396 prophetes: interpreter or forthteller of the divine will
Fruit isn’t gathered from thorny plants
If you’re rooted in the world you’ll bear bad fruit
If you’re rooted in the WORD then you will bear good fruit; good actions
The wicked will get the second death
Many have called out to a FALSE Messiah unknowingly while performing signs and wonders, Yeshua doesn’t know them and they don’t know why.
They are workers of LAWLESSNESS
Build your FAITH on the FOUNDATION  of the WORD and be wise
If you don’t do them you will be foolish then you will fall
Matthew 24:4-5
Stay grounded on your foundation of the WORD
Many will claim to be the messiah
Matthew 24: 11-13
False prophets will/are leading people away
True LOVE towards the Father will grow cold (already has)
The one who ENDURES UNTIL THE END will be SAVED
Matthew 24:23-25
Don’t go searching for the Messiah, He will call you or draw you to Him
False prophets and false messiahs will perform miracles, don’t be distracted
You’ve been warned by Yeshua
Deuteronomy 13:1-3
Prophets and dreamers will give signs and wonders
If the sign and wonder comes true but they tell you not to obey YHVH and his right-rulings and follow other gods then don’t listen to them.
1 John 3:4
Sin is lawlessness
1 John 4:1-6
Don’t believe every spirit/teacher
Test them to scripture (Old Testament, the Apostles didn’t have the New Testament to test off of).
By testing them to scripture you know they are true if they claim Messiah came in the flesh
The spirit of Anti=Messiah is already here
If you are of YHVH then you have overcame them because Yeshua is greater then them
They speak like the world and the world listens
The ones with open ears hear the truth, the ones of the world do not
This is how to know the Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Delusion
2 Peter 2:1-3
Stay in the word and do the word
Yeshua Messiah is deliverance
Be careful to understand the Old Testament/Torah to understand Paul
Those who are untaught in Torah will twist scriptures to their own understanding and to their own destruction
We’ve been warned otherwise you will fall into lawlessness
Grow in knowledge and understanding
2 Corinthians 11:13-15
Falses teachers masquerade as teachers of Messiah
Satan portrays himself as an angel of light
2 Timothy 4:3-4
People won’t hear sound BIBLICAL teachings
Will pick teachers according to THEIR OWN DESIRES
EAR TICKLERS
Isaiah 30:8-10
People will be unwilling to hear YHVH’s instructions
 
 
 
2 Thessalonians 2:1-14
Don’t be troubled as if it is the Day of YHVH
Don’t be deceived, the falling away to the man of LAWLESSNESS must come first, the son of destruction
The son of lawlessness exalts himself higher then YHVH
Sits as if he is YHVH in people’s hearts (sounds like the greek version of Jesus to me)
People will believe he is YHVH
Secret of lawlessness is already alive
The anti-messiah will be revealed by the TRUTH about Yeshua at Yeshua’s coming
The anti-messiah will have all powers and signs and wonders of falsehood
YHVH allows people to be fooled because they didn’t LOVE the TRUTH but loved wickedness and unrighteousness
Thank YHVH for Him choosing you to hear and see HIM by the Holy/Set-apart Spirit by obtaining merited grace through Yeshua
Ezekiel 22:23-31
Teachers conspire, steal life
Teachers and people profane the Word of YHVH
Treat UNCLEAN as clean
Can’t distinguish the Set-apart from the profane
They don’t perform or participate the true Sabbath
The leaders and teachers speak false teachings declaring they’re from YHVH
People don’t care for the poor and needy
No one wants to stand in the gap for TRUTH, on YHVH’s behalf
Wrath is coming because of YHVH’s displeasure
Revelation 12:9
The devil will be cast out and destroy commandment keepers who don’t buy into his fake Jesus
John 8:42-47
The FATHER sent Yeshua
If YHVH were your Father you’d LOVE Yeshua
Why can’t you accept the Father is HIGHER then Yeshua
You don’t have ears to hear or eyes to see
Your father is the devil because you follow your own desires
Satan is a liar and deciever and will make you think he is God when he’s not
You don’t like truth, it doesn’t tickle your ears
Why is this so hard to understand? Are you stiff necked?
You don’t hear and understand because you haven’t been called yet, or choose not to hear
1 John 2:3-6
You know you’re of the Father and the Son if you guard and obey their commandments
You can’t know Him and not guard the commandments, this makes you a liar, the truth is not in you
Those who guard His WORD, your love of Elohim has integrity and your are in HIM
If you stay in Yeshua the you should walk as Yeshua did in all the ways of the Torah
1 Timothy 2:3-4
God wants everyone to be saved and come to the knowledge of the TRUTH
Ther is on God and one mediator between man and God, the man Yeshua the Messiah

Traditions of Men

It's been a few months and part of the journey we're all on in life as I've been on a path to the Truth.  There will be tons of scripture this episode and we will tackle what Yahusha/Jesus was really tackling when taking on the Pharisees and what our Messiah actually embodied and pointed us to.  It's time people to exit Babylon and get back on the narrow path and to put politics, religious traditions of men, our thoughts on who the Messiah and the Father off to the side and to get into the truth.  May this bless you. 
 
First things first we must understand that the entire volume of God breathed scripture is good for reproof, not just the parts we like and there are scriptures removed from the collection called the Bible by men with an agenda.  Some of these books are coming back and were meant for this generation.
 
1The words of the blessing of Enoch, wherewith he blessed the elect and righteous, who will be 2living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked and godless are to be removed.
Enoch 1:1-2
 
4 For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Romans 15:4
 
 
16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God  may be complete, equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
 
 
WE must also understand that Paul taught and walked the same exact thing as Yeshua and we see him say so when writing to Timothy and the Corinthians.
 
3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound  words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, 4 he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, 5 and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain.
1 Timothy 6:3-5
 
Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.
1 Corinthians 11:1
 
We must also understand that God’s law is for ALL people; not just the Jews.  In fact the non-believing Jews will be desolated at end of days per the scriptures.  Even Paul agrees with there is but one law for all.
 
15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a statute forever throughout your generations. You and the sojourner shall be alike before the Lord. 16 One law and one rule shall be for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.”
Numbers 15:15-16
 
28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave  nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Galatians 3:28
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We must also realize that the Jewish people started rabbinic Judaism during their time in Babylon and hence have technically never left Babylon and have exalted it over God’s Instructions since the days of Nehemiah and that’s what Jesus was attacking and doing away with in His time on earth in the flesh.  Search for Kairite Jews vs orthodox Jews beliefs online and see the difference.
19 As soon as it began to grow dark at the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut and gave orders that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. And I stationed some of my servants at the gates, that no load might be brought in on the Sabbath day. 20 Then the merchants and sellers of all kinds of wares lodged outside Jerusalem once or twice. 21 But I warned them and said to them, “Why do you lodge outside the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you.” From that time on they did not come on the Sabbath. 
Nehemiah 13:19-21
 
8 You leave the commandment of God and hold to the tradition of men.”
9 And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition! 
Mark 7:8-9
 
2 “The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, 3 so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice. 
Matthew 7:2-3
28 So you also outwardly appear righteous to others, but within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Matthew 7:28
3 He answered them, “And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
Matthew 15:3
13 For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it. 14 And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers. 
Galatians 1:13-14
 
 
 
The Good News is that God has a plan that started at the beginning when Adam and Eve sinned and has given us the road map to salvation through belief in Messiah that will bring about obedience.  His plan will bring us back to Torah obedience.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Joel 2:28
 
And in those days the children shall begin to study the laws, And to seek the commandments, And to return to the path of righteousness.
Jubilees 23:26
 
But in those days blessed shall they be, to whom the word of wisdom is delivered; who point out and pursue the path of the Most High; who walk in the way of righteousness, and who act not impiously with the impious.

Tough Pill to Swallow

As I dig deeper into history and read the Bible something that has been off  to me is starting to become more and more clear we should’ve been following the Torah as written the New Testament bears this out.  Bear with me here and please if you don’t believe any of what I say here then do you’re own research and verify your beliefs before acting like an animal and attacking me.  
 
The truth is a tough pill to swallow especially when you’ve been told what your perceived to be truth your entire life just to find out it was lies piled upon with more lies.  Most “Christians”, (I put quotes around this word because we were never called to be Christians, we are called to be Israelites), live off of the teachings of their pastors and evangelical leaders and don’t test what these leaders tell them.  Here’s the problem some pastors do in fact test things before they preach them, others don’t and the ones that act this way that don’t test their own teachings, they aren’t following what the Bible itself tells them to do in 1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 where they are told by the Apostle Paul test everything the prophets or divine teachers tell them which ties directly into Deuteronomy 13:1-3 where it tells you again in the Old Testament to not believe anyone that teaches you or shows you something from the Bible that changes the Bible what it says and it’s meaning from God.
 
We have several doctrines in the “Church” today and they all say something different, they all interpret the Bible their own way therefore nullifying any teaching they are giving if we are holding them to the standards of 1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 and Deuteronomy 13:1-3 and we should.  Sadly this all started with the Roman Catholic church and their utter intolerance and hate of the Jews and not wanting anything to do with them and thinking the Old Testament was just a Jewish book.  Red alert right here, please wake up right now drink some coffee or an energy drink and understand this one thing the Old Testament is not Jewish.  This has translated into a poor mindset in the modern church of hating even mentioning feasts and laws because the modern church has taught us to hate the Jews and “Jewish” customs, sorry to burst your bubble but they aren’t Jewish at all.  The Jews, consisting of Judah and Benjamin,  are the ones to uphold the Torah the other 10 tribes have been lost to the nations.
 
  Ok, you’re mind is blown now and you might need some tylenol, I completely understand your bubble just got popped and you don’t know what to do now.  Well I do know what to do now, read your Bible again with the understanding that the ENTIRE Old Testament was divinely inspired by God and written down for all mankind to live by including every single law in the first 5 books.  Can we accomplish all of the laws written there  as of now, no and that’s simply because of two reasons.
 
There is no temple or tabernacle at this time to fulfill some of these laws
We are living in a land where the Torah is not the law of the land and therefore for some of these laws we would have to have special privileges from the government to do so just like the Muslims would in able for them to practice Sharia law.
 
We can still however accomplish much of the laws including God’s prescribed dietary guidelines and festivals.  In fact those are quite simple to do if you’re willing to obey the Father and if you are a follower of Yeshua the Christ then you should want to obey our Heavenly Father without question.
 
To find the truth of how the church ended up where it is now we must look at history and specifically the councils the Roman empire would hold where they would canonize what was and wasn’t allowed in the church.  For instance the Council of Laodicea moved God’s appointed time for the Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday to the day of Sunday on the gregorian calendar in order to trick Christians into worshiping their sun god.  They also did away with the Israelite festivals, you notice I didn’t say Jewish festivals, and incorporated their holidays of easter and saturnalia renaming saturnalia Christmas.  Nowhere in the Torah or the entire Bible does God give man the authority to do this, in fact He curses men for doing this because He has already set apart days and times to gather with us and celebrate His feasts and Holy Days.
 
I could go into more detail but I will challenge you instead to test everything and to get proper insight into each book of the Bible before reading them.  For instance to know what is going on in Hosea’s time figure out who was ruling Israel and what was going on in that time.  Do you’re own research and let the Holy Spirit give you discernment.

Unity

We are in a disjointed body, a destroyed world, and it’s getting worse by the day.  Division is used as a tool and used masterfully whether it’s race, money, jobs, age, social clubs, religion, or even doctrines within religion.  Everything possible is being used to divide mankind and we just eat it up and buy into it willfully.  We have let even the church be divided by man-made doctrine and scream and yell at each other over it.  Anger swells up and division and hate grows and the church quits being the church, doctrine takes over and the Bible takes second place.
 
We are called to be one body in one accord in Christ and Ephesians 4 goes into detail on this.  Ephesians 4:14 even tells us that we are not to be tossed to and fro by every wind of  doctrine, cunning men, or deceit.  We need to unify as one church as we are called to do with only the teachings in the Bible as our doctrine and the Holy Spirit as our guide to give us understanding.
 
As I talked to some atheists this week I learned the way they think and that atheists believe Christians indoctrinate and push the gospel belligerently.  They feel we are using a 2x4 due to how we as Christians react to them with disdain and we must change this practice and unite in one path to bringing people to Christ.  It’s easier to catch a fly with honey then with vinegar, it’s easier to win souls if we are united as one body as we are told by Christ in Ephesians chapter 4 and 1 Corinthians chapter 1, I encourage you to read these chapters
 
It’s time we stop the deception, division, hate, disagreement, or whatever you want to call it and come back to our first love, Christ.  When we start uniting and reading the Bible as written and quit twisting it to fit what men want it to say then we will see Christ take over and unify.  The doctrine of Jesus Christ wins in the end and the Holy Spirit is the key.  We need to use honey instead of vinegar to teach the gospel to unite.
