Torah Study #1 |
Bereisheet =Beh-ray-sheet
“In the beginning.”
|
Torah Readings: Genesis 1:1-6:8 (KJV)
|
| Topic: Topic: A perfect Creation led into deception by sin. Humankind began living under a Curse. Earth is our testing ground for the Father that you may become Yeshua Jesus’ Bride. Be a light unto the world by your walk (Halachah) |
We shall examine the darkness of sin as it came into the new creation with the fallen angels and the sins of Adam which brought confusion into God' Creation. Jesus as the Light of the world provided to repentant man his Salvation.
|
| Lessons: |
TORAH |
| Torah Genesis 1:1-6:8 (KJV) The seven days of creation provide a template for the 7000 year plan of God. A day = 1000 years (Psalm 84:10; 2 Peter 3:8). The Creation was spoken into being by The voice of God using the Hebrew language.
|
Hebrews 11:3 (KJV) “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. |
| Genesis 1:1-5 (KJV) “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.”
|
| How can we understand this darkness (see 5767 Parasha 1 to understand the fallen angels and the creation gap).. Darkness is sin, disobedience, to be wicked, and out of fellowship with God. |
John 1:5 (KJV) “And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.” 1 John 2:8-11 (KJV) “Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. 9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. 10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. 11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.”
|
Isaiah 45:79 (KJV) “I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster, I the LORD, do all these things” In Chiastic Hebrew poetry the Lord is telling us that Light is prosperity and that darkness reflects disaster." Note the Chiastic structure. Darkness is disaster!
|
John 3:19-21 (KJV) “ 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reprovedc. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.”
|
| .Genesis 3:1-19 (KJV) Adam opened the door for our willful choice for sinning. We live in a fallen creation. The curse upon us is sin if we fall from God’s blessings. Sin is our self imposed nature to seek self-esteem/self-sufficiency. Sin is death. If we sin we are lawless. Satan is the “man of lawlessness.” Sin serves the “man of lawlessness.” Satan masquerades as an angel of light. |
 |
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
| 1 John 3:4 (KJV) 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. |
| John 8:34 (KJV) 34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. |
James 4:17 (KJV) 17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
|
Romans 3:23 (KJV) 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
|
Romans 8:7-9 (KJV) 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
|
Galatians 5:19-21 (KJV) 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
|
There is a spiritual battle between forces of light and darkness for your soul. Only 2 eternal destinies and one free-choice to everlasting life. |
 |
James 4:7 (KJV) 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
|
1 John 3:8 (KJV) 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
|
1 John 3:10 (KJV) 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
|
1 John 1:9-10 (KJV) 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
|
|
TANACH |
Psalm 103:1-15(KJV) Powerful words from the 1st Covenant …Tanach brings today’s Torah study to conclusion.
God had a restoration plan from the beginning….But it took 7 literal days to complete and we are in a millennial process of completion now! ...end of the 6th day. |
|
| The Holy Spirit, sent from God the Father, recruits you to Jesus. He indwells within you as God's cloud by day and pillar of fire by night and empowers you with the gifts and callings of God. |
| Remember, you are the light of the world, the salt of the earth. Don't loose your light or saltiness. In full fellowship with Abba your light drives out all darkness from the Temple of your heart, but if you light fades as a room nightlight then darkness creeps into your Temple and you are out of fellowship with God. You now have a Breath in fellowship with God. But through Christ with repentance you are restored. |

Parasha Study #2 |
|
Parasha Readings: Genesis 6:9-11:32
|
| Topic: Restoration of the fig tree to the brotherhood of Messiah Yeshua Jesus. Noah’s extended family thru the sacrifice of the Lamb becomes one in Christ.
|
The mystery of the Tanach’s hidden Yeshua Jesus is the “seed” to a desolate pagan Gentile world.
|
Today, we see two thousand years of Gentile Christianity and the clock is soon to return to Israel in the 70th week of Daniel.
|
RESTORATION OF ISRAEL TO YESHUA JESUS |
| Lessons: |
TORAH |
| Genesis 9: 1-17 (KJV) Multiply …be fruitful X2… Noah's offspring give rise to the nations [table of 70 nations from the Sons of Noah (Genesis chapter 10)].
|
| Noahic Covenant …reproduce to replenish the Earth, avoid spilling innocent blood, eat not of flesh containing blood (improper killing, strangled), thou shall not murder.
|
| Don't these requirements sound similar to the Acts council ??
|
Acts 21:25 (KJV)25 As touching the Gentiles …. "save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication." |
These are the "God-fearer" rules for the Gentile nations?? Noah was a Gentile.
Similar yes ???....but similar...No as there is a significance difference between Noahic Covenant and the recommendations of the Acts council!
|
Acts 15:20-21 (KJV)20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood. 21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
|
| Knowing salvation through Yeshua Jesus these "God -fearers" were exposed to the Jewish customs, traditions and Torah. Leviticus in Torah outlines the clean and unclean food laws, that they may elect to follow for Torah obedience to show their love of Christ ( "If you love me keep my Commandments")....not because of Jewish legalism.
|
| "eat all foods"??? Verse 3..meat SH # 402 אָכְלָה [’oklah /ok•law/]; food, meal, eating. An object of devouring, consuming. As discussed, there were guidelines on food of idols and containing blood. No shedding of innocent blood (abortion) and no fornication.
|
| Verse 13…What was the token of the covenant?......“Bow”also seen in Revelation 4:3 (KJV) "3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Also a rainbow is seen in the color scheme of of the days of creation." |
. |
|
Haftorah |
| Isaiah 54:1 (KJV) ……Rejoice barren Israel sing aloud ….Why?? Israel the “chosen” is spiritually unfruitful amongst the many nations of the world……but the desolate woman is fruitful, who according to Hebrew reckoning is the despicable, desolate, pagan, non-Jew (desolate SH 8074 שׁמם shâmêm shaw-mame‘) One, who in summary, is to bring wonder from that which is a waste, devastated or desolate people to an amazement, astonishment as to stun in wonder. For more are the spiritual children of the desolate.
|
| Isaiah 54:2-4 (KJV) Rejoice barren Israel sing aloud ….Why?? Rejoice as your future is hopeful. (as Jabez… 1 Chron. 4:10)
|
| Thy “seed” is Yeshua Jesus who inherits the Gentiles and restores the desolate cities of Israel.
|
If Israel is a widow…….. Who died?
What did Caiaphas tell the Jewish People? (John 18:12-14); John 11:49-52 (KJV)
|
| Isaiah 54:5-10 (KJV) Who is the Redeemer of Israel? Abba has an everlasting covenant with Israel. The Jew have patiently awaited the restoration to occur under Messiah. Abba has been longsuffering for the restoration of all Israel under Messiah.
|
| Jesus also is upset, wrought, with Israel’s unfruitfulness & unfaithfulness.. Matthew 21:18-20 (KJV) The fig tree was cursed forever for salvation is not by the works of the law but by belief and faith in the risen Savior, the Redeemer of Israel. |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
Now, the Apostle Peter addresses the spiritually barren Israelites. Jews from all 70 nations of the world whom were in Jerusalem when Peter, being filled with the Holy Spirit , proclaimed to the Jewish nation Salvation is only through Christ.
Acts 2:22-24 (JKV)
Palm 16:8-11 (JKV) Peter cites King David looking forward that his soul not be left in hell. The Jew understood that King David was a prophet.
Acts 2:25-36 (KJV) What shall we do? Confess Yeshua Jesus as Lord of your life and be baptized in His Name...that is the promise to all you and your children for generations to come.
Acts 2:-37-42 (KJV)..We all await Messiah’s return. Baruch haba B’Shem Adonai
|
Abba is bringing all nations to Christ and lastly Israel.

Parasha Study #3 |
|
Parasha Readings: Genesis 12:1-17:27
|
| Topic: Just as Abram was to “go out” from his homeland to do Abba’s commission …so also are we to “go out.” Mark 16:15-16 (KJV) 15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
|
Abraham did “go out” as he believed God’s spoken Voice…..The just (righteous) live by Faith. All things are possible for him that believes (Mark 9:23 (KJV)
|
| Lessons: |
TORAH |
| The Voice of The Almighty God called Abraham, a pagan, out of Ur of the Chaldees unto a Promise Land that was to be his home by an agreement between him and God through an unconditional Covenant. Abraham is the Father of Faith. The 1st Covenant saints were justified by Faith… (Book of Hebrews chapter 11). They had the Faith of Job -- “I know my Redeemer lives”
|
Job 19:25 (KJV) “For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:”
|
| The unseen God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is a real living God. We assuredly know this by Faith. |
Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) “1 Now faith is the substance (reality) of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
|
| Hope is to look forward to a desire … a trust/reliance on an expectation. Faith is the reality/Truth of that expectation. Faith is the putting of a concreteness to an expectation.
|
Faith ….an example: John 20:24-29 (KJV) Note: Jesus’ Glorified Body …and when He shall appear we shall be likened unto Him. Thomas needed tangible proof of the reality of the risen Christ. Jesus tells them and us what is the substance of real faith. "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. (John 20:29)
|
| God’s Promises: Make thee..Abram… a great nation (Gen. 12:2; Gen 13:16) Numerous offspring Gen. 15:4-6 (stars), Num. 23:10A (dust); Heb. 11:12: Hosea 1:10A (sand). God’s promise is based on Abram's Faith but he must be patient & wait for fulfillment. |
Genesis 15:4 (KJV) 4 And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him (Abraham) , saying, This (Eiliezer) shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir. (italics mine)
|
| Yes, the promised "seed," the Messiah, the Redeemer of mankind was to come from the loins of Abraham. |
| Genesis 16:1-12 (KJV) Were Abram and Sarai getting impatient? Shouldn't they be comforted by the Word of the Lord? Where was Sarai’s Faith? …..More astonishing where was Abram’s Faith?
|
| Was Ishmael to be that prophesized “seed?” What becomes of Ishmael? He is the cornerstone of the Islamic nations.
|
| What is His temperament? Genesis 16:11-12 (KJV) "11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. 12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren."
|
| Is this not the temperament of Islam...violence....anti-Semitism...Hate.. Destruction of the Sabbath keepers and the Sunday Church people. What is the Islamic/Israeli relationship today. ..non-existence of Israel.
|
| How many Christians in world? (about 1.5 billion in 2003 and getting less every day); Jews? (about 14 million) Islamic? (about 2 billion or 1/3 of the earth's population. Prophecy fulfilled! |
Genesis 16:10 (KJV)10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
|
|
Haftorah |
| Isaiah 40:1-11 (KJV) We see, dimly, a hope…a flickering light…Restoration of Israel amidst great conflict in the Middle East with Israel surrounded by 21 hostile Islamic nations and infiltrated by the PLO. Be comforted for Messiah will come. His 1st coming is described in verse 3.... "for a voice came crying in the wilderness." …and restoration was first for the non-Jews through Christ....The Church age came into being. In verses 3-4 we see the 2nd coming of Christ to the Jew and to all mankind, as the strong Right Arm of the Lord, the Good Shepherd..
|
Have Faith ..Everything will be rearranged for the Glory of the Lord shall be revealed! Generations come and go but God’s Word is forever. God's Holy spirit amongst man is eternal.
Israel, your Redeemer lives! The Right arm of the Lord shall rule as a Good Shepherd.
|
Remember that the 66 Books of Isaiah is a miniature Bible??.. So that Isaiah 40:3 = Matthew 3:3!
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
| Romans 3:21-4:5 (KJV) Paul describes the righteousness of God being made available to Jew and non-Jew, but the only way to justification is through Yeshua Jesus. Salvation by a personal Faith relationship with Yeshua Jesus; Justification is not by works of Torah. Torah give the guidelines and instruction, as a schoolmarm would led us to live in holy and sanctified lives. Its our plumb line! |
Romans 4:16-18 (KJV) 16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, 17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
|
| Prayer of Faith |
James 5:15 (KJV) 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
|
| Gift of Faith
|
Matthew 18:19 (KJV) 19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. |
Mark 11:24 (KJV) 24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
|
Also see: Matthew 18:19-20; John 14:13-14; Mark 11:23-24; Philippians 4:19; Mark 9:23 |
The Just shall live by Faith |
| The Faithful will keep oil in their lamps to be separated from the pride and lust of the worldly body of Christians. These faithful Overcomers shall remain in a covenant sanctified relationship with Abba through His Son, Yeshua Jesus, and shall be kept Torah-observant by the Holy Spirit. They shall go with a shout and a Shofar blast to the Coronation and Wedding of Messiah. The worldly Church in its seduction, strife, pride and Jezebel spirit will be without oil and "left-behind. The Faithful shall go Home.

What day is today on the Hebrew Calendar??....God's wrath! |
Genesis 7:11-13 (KJV)11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. 12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
|
Are you prepared in spiritual maturity for that day?
|
17th Cheshvan is today’s Sabbath (2nd month 17th day on Jewish civil calendar)
Look up your redemption draws neigh.
|
Topic: And He, Yeshua Jesus, appeared as The Mighty Arm of the Lord bringing Deliverance, Salvation, Creative Miracles, Liberation from Egypt and Judgment. As children of God seek spiritual growth…don’t remain a child always… become a Son of God and serve the Father.
|
| Lessons: |
TORAH |
| Genesis 19:13-28 (KJV) Worldly evil, fornication, lust prevailed in the 10 plain cities. They were as it was in the days of Noah
|
| What are the days of Noah and the days of Lot. Luke 17:28-37 (KJV) We are also in Egypt…..look at the state of the world, our nation, our churches. How do they compare with the days of Noah and Lot… Today, where is the Body of Christ? In a religion… “lukewarm” …..apostate…not as a betrothed virgin Bride in waiting. Salvation is sealed in a personal relationship as is a betrothal. Don't divorce yourself from God.
|
Look up ….. for your redemption draws nigh.
|
Are you ready?? |
|
Haftorah |
2 Kings 4:8-17 (KJV) Elisha, as a chosen “mature” agent of the Lord brings God’s power amongst the Gentiles. A miracle to bring life into a barren woman… Abba works through His agents (His sokhen, His paters, His father-like ministers). You are also commissioned by The Almighty God. Nothing is impossible with God. Be spiritually mature. You are a sokhen…help your brother.
|
| Grow in Spiritual maturity .....Leave the outer court and enter the inner court. Transform from being a "new" Christian on milk to a God-servant on meat....... Enter the inner court by the baptisms of the Holy Spirit ....by water...by fire and into the Body of Christ |
Receive your gifts and calling. |
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
| Galatians 4:1-9 (KJV) A child of the Lord is spiritually immature even though he be an heir. What is your tutor/governor? ….. The Holy Scriptures.
|
| Go from milk to meat by feeding on the Word of God and the Holy Spirit will give you spiritual eyes and ears. Some will be greater and some lesser in the Kingdom of God. Matthew 5:18-20 (KJV) To the mature, much shall be given, but it comes with responsibility! .. We bear accountability on Earth for our worldly responsibilities…. So also is God’s Kingdom.
|
Luke 12:48b (KJV) "For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more."
|
| Come out of Sodom and Gomorrah! Achieve Spiritual Maturity …where are you? Who me???? Spiritual Maturity …Where are you? |
| Let us examine the linguistic richness of the Greek language as used in Paul's writings to portray this process of childhood growth from milk to meat. A child (children) is expressed in many different Greek words to reflect increasing levels of maturity of the growing child. Nepios ….. Paidion ….. Teknon …..
|
| Eventually, you mature to be a Son of God and responsible heir…… a Huios …….. So that you can do the kingdom work as a Pater … a teacher |
Note this progression in the scriptural text ...develop that Spiritual Maturity from the Word of God …where are you? Your Commission is as mature Christians to do the Kingdom work of bringing the Gospel of Peace (unity) to lost souls.
|
Romans 10:14-15 (KJV) 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Which son had the birthright? ….. Older or younger? Esau sells his birthright. Geneses 25:30 (KJV) "And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom."

(4) Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD. |

Haftorah |
| Malachi 1:1-5 (KJV) "God hates Esau." Esau sold his birthright as if it were nought. |
| Esau offspring: Esau’s grandson, Amalek, (Gen 36:12) is Israel’s ancient enemy: (Ex. 17:16 KJV) For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation. First group to attack new nation in wilderness (Ex. 17:8-16; Deu. 25:17).REsau (Edom) is prophesized to perish (Num. 24:20) Edom is hostile towards his brother Israel: Edom refused Moses Passage to the Promise Land. Edom plundered Israel whenever they were weakest.
|
| Who are the sons of Esau? They are the Edomites (Idumaeans) of Jordan and have extended bloodlines into the Roman emperors and European royalty.
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
| Hebrews 12:14-17 (KJV) Cherish your birthright in Christ. Esau was remorseful. Is there a difference between remorseful and repentance?
|
| Romans 9:4-18 (KJV) Who are the Israelites? In the Physical? In the Spiritual? Whom are of Abraham's seed and the Children of the Promise? |
Galatians 4:28 (KJV) 8 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
|
Galatians 3:29 (KJV)29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
|
Galatians 3:29 (KJV) 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
|
Fate of Esau (Edom). |
Obadiah 1:15-18 (KJV) For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou (Edom) hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head. (16) For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been. (17) But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions. (18) And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
Joe l 3:19-21 (KJV) Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land. (20) But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation. (21) For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the LORD dwelleth in Zion.

Abba Father knowing the beginning from end speaks of the foreknowledge of God as to our eternal destiny.
In today’s Parasha, God is addressing His foreknowledge of Esau (Edom).

TORAH |
Genesis 28:10-22 (KJV) A dream ..from God. Demonstrates angels entering/leaving our time-space domain. “Seed” to be dispersed to 4 corners. Way-markers (dolmens) (Jer. 31:21) Bethel “House of God.
Jacob is given the promises of Abraham and Jacob himself enters into a mutual covenant with Abba. |
from Prophecy in the News News
|
Hosea 12:12 (KJV) And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep. |
| Why in Hosea is Jacob called Israel when he leaves Bethel for Syria? Was not his name officially given as Israel after wrestling with "an angel of the Lord" (Jesus) on the river Jabbok. Being Jacob, he was a man of the flesh and a supplanter but as Israel he is a spiritual man in covenant with God. (verses 14-15;20-22)INTERESTING!! |
|
Haftorah |
| Hosea 14:1-9 (KJV) Who is Ephraim….assimilated amongst the melo ha Goyim….. ? Is he the Church? Is the menorah (the seven branched candle stick) the outcome of the culminated Church of the "lost Israelite"-Gentile intermarriage over the past 2000 years? Restoration of Ephraim is by return to Torah (Debar) and renounce idols. He is the Firstborn of resurrection
|
Jer 31:9 (KJV) They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn. |
How shall Israel (Ephraim ) be restored? By being an Overcomer in grace with faith and truth.
How do we (the CVhurch) become Overcomers? By faith , hope and charity …GREATEST is LOVE |
1 Cor 13:13 (KJV) And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |
| An Overcomer has no darkness in him. He that hateth his brother walks in darkness and there is no light in him.
|
Col 3:13-15 (KJV) Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. (14) And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. (15) And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. |

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA) |
| John 1:15—18 (KJV)….An Introduction |
| John 1:29-34 (KJV) Jesus and John are cousins …Who is the elder? As cousins John is 6 months the elder. Yeshua Jesus is eternal existing before the foundations. |
John 1:43-51 (KJV) Jesus came as the Son of God …the Son of Man .. that we might also “sit under the fig tree.” .....A Hebrew idiom for the eternal Kingdom of God. Not all Christians will "sit under the fig tree." Which Christians will see the fig tree? Only those Overcomers whom have no guile. When do Overcomers see the fig tree in immortal, imperishable bodies? .....Only after a Resurrection/Rapture.
|
| Revelation 4:1-5 (KJV) Who do the seven lamps represent ?….Revelation 1:20 (KJV)..... see the Bible explains the Bible. The Church is before the Throne of God even before any seals are opened! |

Examine these characteristics of the Elders: and see it it "don't ring as bell" (an American idiom)

White robes…of righteousness
Crowns… for crowning accomplishments received at the Bema seat judgment. They are symbolic of the authority of Kings....Royal Priesthood of saints.
Priesthood of Melchizedek Christ's Bride as commissioned to be his helper in Kingdom rule and judging angels.... |

TORAH |
Genesis 32:22-32 (KJV)
Struggling with the angel of the Lord. Jacob in the flesh;
Israel in the Spirit. (Jacob…man of the flesh…..Israel
…spiritual man in covenant with God). In the flesh, we
wrestle with God as a man in bondage to sin, but as a New
Creation Believer, we are not to be driven by physical or
fleshly desires, but are led of Holy Spirit in our walk (Halachah).
|
We are Spirit filled…being Holy
Spirit filled. How does God wrestle with us to bring us
into His righteousness?
|
 |
|
Haftorah |
|
Hosea 12:1-8 (KJV) Ephraim is
“full of hot air.” He keeps evil/unclean company. Likewise,
Jacob is in disobedience and into Idolatry. The Lord will
struggle with the House of Jacob as He struggled with the
patriarch Jacob/Israel. House of Jacob=House of Judah
(Southern Kingdom) (the Jew) and House of Israel (Northern
Kingdom, Ephraim) (Church). |

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |

1
Corinthians 5:1-13 (KJV) They were “lukewarm” as they
tolerated fornication amongst themselves.... even in their
congregation. Are they even in your congregation? Deliver
the fornicator for destruction to Ha’ Satan… Perhaps the
tormentor will cause him to repent and the Holy Spirit will
prevail in his life. Evil is as leaven! Cast out evil
amongst you. Touch-not..taste-not of the works of evil.
|
Ephesians 5:11 (KJV) 11 And
have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of
darkness, but rather reprove them.
|
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (KJV)
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
for what fellowship hath righteousness with
unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with
darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial?
or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?
for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath
said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will
be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore
come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the
Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will
receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye
shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
|
|
Two Chastisement Processes :
1. Chastisement unto
repentance….A restoration of a Christian living outside of
fellowship with the Father. 2.
Purification and tempering (as tempered steel) by Baptism by
fire. Abba is building up His Army of loyal, obedient
followers just as Job was tested by Satan. |
|
Is chastisement from Abba or Satan?
There are suffering, trials, tribulations and disease as a
consequence of sin wherein Abba is bringing you to
repentance and restoring your fellowship with Him. Satan
hates you as you were created in the Image of the God
(Elohim) ..Satan enjoys beating-up on humans. Satan’s
chastisement is disease (physical, mental and spiritual) and
devastation of living circumstances (finances ,job,
marriages, etc). Satan wants you to have a distorted body,
spirit and mind.… and live in misery. |
|
In Baptism by fire God refines you as
in preparation for ministry or a calling…”A Job thing.” Abba
chastises you to bring you into the image of His Son, Jesus
… Glory to Glory. |
|
Suffering as Chastisement for sin. The
Lord “chastens” those who profess to be His children. Here
we observe the Father’s Chastisement for sin to restore our
family relationship of fellowship with our Creator. His
chastisement is for your learning process of correction to
mold your character (soul) by reproof and admonition
(trials/tribulations) to scourge or purge you of evil and
unrighteousness.
|
Hebrews 12:6-8 (KJV) 6 For
whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God
dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom
the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye
bastards, and not sons.
|
Revelation 3:19 (KJV)19 As
many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous
therefore, and repent. (Hebrews 12:6-8)
|
James 1:2-4 (KJV) 2 My
brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers
temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your
faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her
perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting
nothing.
|
|
Remove sin from your Temple. All sin
makes you fall short the Glory of God and his word is not in
us. Yet, We are never 100% perfect ..as evident by our need
for an Intercessor, a High Priest, Who this day sits at the
Right Hand of the Father. We so easily let sin creep into
our lives. (1 John 1:8-10)Work on Wholeness of your
Salvation… to near perfection! Take every thought captive |
|
Examine
your thoughts…Your Spiritual barometer |
|
Question
Source???...self…God… or demonic?
If from God….. they edify God and are
consistent with the WORD and are for your repentance. They
are simple and orderly without confusion.
If from soulish self .......
they edify you… your self importance , self esteem. They
bring attention to yourself…. “look at me.”
If from demons .....they
contradict God’s Word, are destructive to self and brother
(Body of Christ) and create confusion, disorder and strife.
|
|
Christ said that
persecutions would come upon us, the just man (a Job type of
suffering and sickness). We were to see sufferings, hate,
torture, trials, difficulties and death. All these are
inflicted upon the Christian from the outside, causing
weariness, sleepless nights, homelessness, poverty,
rejection and abandonment. All these Jesus, himself,
experienced while at the work in His Gospel ministry. Our
suffering is as Christ suffered from torment and
persecutions of the world and our fellow man. |
|
The Lord refines us, as molten gold
under the fire, by trials and tribulations to bring our
lives in line with the WORD of God that we may assume the
image of Christ. This is the Baptism of Fire to remove the
dross from the righteous, a “Job thing” ….. Satan is allowed
to test your faith with devastation and disease…. A testing
of the deep recesses of your soul. Baptism of Fire is
induction into righteousness. It is Abba preparing you for a
higher calling. To whom much is given much is expected.
(Luke 12:48). |
Psalm 118:17-18 (KJV) 17
I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the
LORD. 18 The LORD hath chastened me sore: but he hath
not given me over unto death.
|
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 (KJV)
9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly
therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that
the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I
take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in
necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s
sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
|
2 Corinthians 1:5-6 (KJV) 5
For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our
consolation (comfort, encouragement) also aboundeth by
Christ. 6 And whether we be afflicted, it is for your
consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the
enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or
whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and
salvation.

Summed in one word…..LOVE

Joseph is a phenotype of Yeshua Jesus.
These dreams were fulfilled when Joseph was the overseer
over all of Egypt, sitting at the right hand of the
pharaoh as ruler over all the land of Egypt. These
prophecies are yet to be fulfilled in Christ when He
establishes His millennial reign. Another prophecy is found
in Joseph's coat of many colors. Just as Joseph was
prophesized to be a branch to the Gentile world, so also is
the Coat
of Many
Colors a prophecy that Joseph's seed would be
spread amongst the Gentiles as the dispersed Northern
Kingdom, Ephraim.

Amos 3:1-8 (KJV) How is Israel

Amos writes in Hebrew prose using
rhetorical puns: |
Two walking:
Agreement=disagreement...strife
A roaring lion: You are wimps for
you crying without purpose
A bird & snare: Your works are
futile
Afraid to the Shofar: Your are
disordered, afraid because of your idolatry which is not
of the Lord's doing.

Again Israel is a stiff-necked,
uncertain, people of wavering faith.
In contrast, The LORD is loyal to his
own. Alluding to the prophetic… |

TORAH |
Genesis 41:37-52 (KJV) Last
week, we saw Joseph as a phenotype representing
Messiah Ben Joseph.
Today, we are introduced to Joseph as
Messiah Ben David. Joseph’s name in Hebrew means “may
God add,” “increase” …. He portrays a “type of Christ” and
depicts both Christ’s 1st & 2nd Coming. He begins as Messiah
Ben Joseph, as a servant slave in Egypt and rules as Messiah
Ben David, as agent of the Pharaoh. He is given a new name (Zaphenath-Paneah...meaning
Savior of world; Giver of nourishment of life; revealer of
secrets). The names of his sons also tell us about Joseph:
|
Manasseh means …"51 For God,
said he, hath made me (Joseph) forget all my toil, and
all my father’s house." (to forget; to be forgotten; to
cause to forget)
Ephraim means "52 For God hath caused me (Joseph)
to be fruitful in the land of my affliction." (Twofold
increase; very fruitful; doubly fruitful).
|
|
How is Joseph a phenotype of Christ? |
Miraculous birth. .. by Hand of God
Grew-up despised by his brothers.
Rejected by his own brothers.
A shepherd.
Sold for shekels of silver.
A servant in Egypt … Messiah ben Joseph.
Tested but did not sin..
Charged of evil doing, but innocent of all charges.
At age 30 years, begins work in Egypt.
A ruler in Egypt.. Messiah ben David.
A righteous agent of the Pharaoh-King (at his right
hand).
A fruitful vine (Joseph=Ephraim’ seeds =Church).
Comes to a perishing world … a great famine was coming
for 7 years,
Provides life & sustenance for the Gentiles and his
brothers .
Takes a Gentile-pagan wife.
Has two half-breed Gentile Children (are Gentile
believers today “half-breeds”) .
Re-gathers his brothers to himself in the time of
their distress..
Shows mercy and grace on all who will accept Him. (Jew
or Gentile, Jew or Melo Ha’Goyim).
Sustenance of life (“food man” gives life to
Egyptians) vs. Christ’s manna of eternal life….

Mystery of Joseph
is Ephraim:
|
|
How does Ephraim obtain favor in Abba
eyes? |
Jeremiah 31:6-9 (KJV)6
For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the
mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to
Zion unto the LORD our God. 7 For thus saith the LORD;
Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief
of the nations: publish ye, praise ye, and say, O LORD,
save thy people, the remnant of Israel. 8 Behold, I will
bring them from the north country, and gather them from
the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the
lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with
child together: a great company shall return thither. 9
They shall come with weeping, and with supplications
will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the
rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall
not stumble: for I am a father
to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
Jeremiah 31:18-20 (KJV)
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus;
Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a
bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I
shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God. 19 Surely
after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I
was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed,
yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of
my youth. 20 Is Ephraim my dear
son? is he a pleasant child? for since I
spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore
my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy
upon him, saith the LORD.
|
|
How does Ephraim become re-gathered
as a branch?....Ephraim (House of Israel) is a prophetic
branch! A clue to our identity! |
Hosea 14:8 (KJV) 8
Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with
idols? I have heard him, and observed him:
I (Yeshua)
am like a green fir tree. From me(Yeshua/Holy
Spirit) is thy (Ephraim) fruit
found.
Jeremiah 2:20-21 (KJV) 20 For of old time I have
broken thy (Israel, Ephraim) yoke, and burst thy
bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon
every high hill and under every green tree thou
wanderest, playing the harlot. 21 Yet I had planted thee
a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how
then art thou turned into the
degenerate plant of a
strange vine unto me?
.... A Judeo-Christian conversion?
|
|
. We Gentiles are the
wild olive branch (strange
branch). |
Romans 11:17-19 (KJV) 17
And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou,

Joshua is a branch plucked out of the fire in filthy
garments….. He is given New Garments (Are these white
linen?) and a miter (a diadem crown) on his Head
....... Now who is Joshua? His is made a Priest and King of
Priesthood of Melchizedek along with his fellow

Who is the Branch?
THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
And…Are we to be in His image? |
Jeremiah 23:5-6 (KJV)
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will
raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King
shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and
justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved,
and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name
whereby he shall be called, THE
LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Jeremiah 33:15 (KJV) In
those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch
of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall
execute judgment and righteousness in the land.
Isaiah 11:1 (KJV) And there shall come forth a
rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a
Branch shall grow out of
his roots:
Zechariah 6:12 (KJV) “And speak unto him, saying,
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying,
Behold the man whose name is
The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his

Corinthians 5:14-21 (KJV) How are we all dead? ..... By the
first Adam, we die in sin, but in the second Adam, we are reconciled
to the Almighty Father through the Blood of Yeshua Jesus. The Father
needed a propitiation price, a sin offering to bring us home to His
Kingdom. Yeshua was that "Lamb of God" Who took away the sins of
humankind, that all whom believe in Him will have everlasting life. |
This is the Gospel message of Salvation. |
| Live not
self-centered but Christ-centered. |
"Hence forth,"
"Wherefore henceforth," " henceforth," "Therefore". …..is
there a neon light message here?? ... Yes, Paul next gives
us what that the future therefore means...that we in-Christ are a
"new creation" and "18 And all things are of God, who hath
reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the
ministry of reconciliation;"
|
| Keep your focus
on being "Christ-centered." You leaving your fleshman behind and
being reconciled and made anew, is assurance that through Yeshua’s
death, you are one with the Father. The propitiation price has been
paid! …. "tetelestai" it is finished ....no
sin debt!...paid in full. |

Corinthians 5:20 (KJV) Now then we are ambassadors

16:14-20 (KJV) A commission to be an Agent of the Lord.
…..You are commission as believers to be Ambassadors of the Gospel
Message to the four corners of the compass. Salvation for the
believers and damnation for the nonbelievers. In the NAME OF
JESUS, you are fully empowered by the Holy Spirit to cast
out demons, bestow the Gifts and Callings, be kept from harm of the
serpent/devil, and heal the sick. You are Agents of Yeshua Jesus,
being filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit to do the same work(s)
that Christ did. |

• Ministry of Reconciliation is our
commission
• Yeshua Jesus .. Commissioned us to the mandate of
Reconciliation.
• Abba Father makes His appeal to us through Christ.
• Yeshua Jesus is the only way ..the narrow/straight path to
Abba Father.
• Christ is an OT mystery; now revealed as our Intercessor,
High priest and Reconciler.
• Stay Christ-centeredness, don't fall into the legalism of
the law …as salvation is that the just (righteous) live by
faith.

under Moses failed in their Commission: Exodus 19:6

TORAH |
| Let’s examine Jacob’s heritage to his sons, which are prophetic blessings. |
| Genesis 47:28-48:22 (KJV) Grandsons become sons. Jacob’s prophetic blessings over Joseph’s sons impact on us. Joseph means “ may God add”, “to increase.” The fulfillment of fruitfulness of Joseph is through his sons. These lads “grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.” “Multitude of nations” = Ephraim. “A people, exceedingly great” = Manasseh.
|
| Evidence of Fruitfulness of Joseph is thru Ephraim:
|
Joshua (Oshea) son of Nun was an Ephraimite. (Num. 13:8)
One of four tribal banner leaders in assembling the nation.
Northern Kingdom ruled by Ephraim; Southern Kingdom by Judah.
Code name standing for all of Israel’s 10 northern tribes.
OT code word representing “lost tribes” & can be found in Church… Today’s redeemed of the Lord.
Can you see how …. Joseph means “ may God add”, “to increase”
|
| Birthright…rights of the first-born: Receives father’s blessing; Leader & Priest of family. “Double portion” is an inheritance 2X that of other sons. |
| Joseph's sons received the family birthright thru transference of Joseph' blessings. |
1Ch 5:1-2 (KJV) Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright. For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's:) |
| A double Blessing with the Birthright Blessing …..but also extra portion to Joseph?
|
Gensis 48:22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion* above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.
*SH7926 שׁכם shekem
Genesis 33:18 (KJV) And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his tent before the city.
Genesis 33:19 (KJV) And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for an hundred pieces of money.
….. and called it El-Elohe-Israel (the Mighty God of Israel)
John 4:5 (KJV) Then cometh he (Jesus) to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
Joshua 24:32 (KJV) And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the children of Joseph.
|
| Hence, they could not cast lots for this land in Shechem at Jacob's well, as it was foreordained to belong to Joseph (Ephraim) |
| Firstborn examples:
|
- Yeshua Jesus ….“firstborn amongst the brethren” (Rom. 8:29); “firstborn of all creation (Col. 1:15); Church of the first born (Heb. 12:23) “firstborn from the dead” (Rev.1:5); “firstfruits of the resurrection” (1 Cor. 15:20)
|
- Ephraim is my Firstborn (Jeremiah 31:9) Receives Father God’s Firstborn blessing (Jeremiah 31:9); His "First-born" Birthright as a son of Joseph is to be fruitfully dispersed amongst the Melo Ha' Goyim (become the nations of the world and to become priests of that family (white linen) & kings (Crown) of Jesus' Priesthood of Melchizedek, achieving the Royal line through being the Bride.
His “Double portion" is manifest in his progeny”.. These “lost Israelites” accounts for multitudes of Abraham's progeny (Sands/Stars/Dust) being hidden away in a fertile incubator.
|
| Jacob's Blessings to his twelve sons. Genesis 49:1-28 (KJV) |
| The Blessing of Jacob .....Each of the Jacob’s sons receives a blessing from him. These assist us in understanding Ephraim by Jacob’s prophetic Blessing of Joseph. |
1. Reuben (49:3–4): He is as unruly as the stormy sea and is demoted because of his immorality.
2. Simeon and Levi (49:5–7): They are violent men given to anger and cruelty, so their descendants will be scattered throughout Israel.
3. Judah (49:8–12): He will be praised by his brothers and will defeat his enemies. The scepter (royal line) will not depart from him “until the coming of the one to whom it belongs.”
4. Zebulun (49:13): He will live by the seashore and become a harbor for ships.
5. Issachar (49:14–15): He will work with animals and till the land.
6. Dan (49:16–18): He will be like a snake beside the road.
7. Gad (49:19): He will defend himself against all enemies.
8. Asher (49:20): He will produce rich food fit for kings.
9. Naphtali (49:21): He will be as free as a deer.
10. Joseph (49:22–26): He will be like a fruitful tree beside a fountain, blessing others. He has been persecuted, but he has been strengthened by God. He will be blessed by God and will be a prince among his brothers.
10. Benjamin (49:27): He will devour his enemies like a hungry wolf.
|
| Prophetic impact or take home message these Fruitful Blessings |
- Well watered fruitful bough by a well.
- extends his boundaries over the wall of Judea into hostile country.
- Is this the battle bow of Ephraim (Zec 9:13).
- Wields a strong right arm.
- Blessings prevail as given by the Almighty God.
- Blessings from heavens/deep/beasts/womb;
- A crown on His Head..... A king from Ephraim???
- Remember that the Church (Bride) = Priesthood of Melchizedek.
- Joseph’s arm made strong by strength from God
- “from thence” is the fertile ground for the "stone of Israel"...Yeshua Jesus , The shepherd. The Mighty God over the flock of Ephraim!

Ecc 12:13-14 (KJV) Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. |

1 Peter 1:3- 12 (KJV) You, believers, on this side of the cross are privilege to the Gospel message of salvation (sozo) thru the inheritance of Christ with empowerment by the Holy Spirit to be His Ambassadors. .
The prophets of old wrote anticipating, but never seeing what, today, is your free gift. Your inheritance was provided by the Blood of Jesus. O Death where is thy sting?
|
1Cor. 15:54-58 (KJV) So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

Perseverance in faith
tempers the steeling of the mind …an alignment of the
soul-spirit–body connection to the WORD of God.
|
|
Be
Abba's Agent... don' serve yourself or man. We are not of
this world. |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
Exodus 3:6-17 (KJV) Can you see
the neon lights?? “Sent”….4X……..send…send…send…send?
|
שׁלח shâlach shaw-lakh‘ to
appoint, to send (away,
forth, out), set, shoot (forth, out), sow, spread,
stretch forth (out).
|
|
Moses a God??? Exodus verses 4:16; 7:1.
As an agent, you have full power & all authority of the
person who sent you. Moses was the earthly representative of
God. Moses was God through agency. |
Agent (sokhen nm) From Jewish law
of Agency (Talmud : Ned. 72b; Kidd. 41b)“ An
agent is regarded as the person himself. ” An agent acts
for one in higher authority with the full authority of
the one who sent him (Principle person); any act
committed by a duly appointed agent is regarded as
having been committed by the principle person, who
therefore, bears full responsibility on the part of the
agent.
|
|
Examples of intercessors or agents:
Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (Israel), Joseph, Moses, Joshua,
Kohen ha’ Gadol, Elijah, the prophets, Yeshua Jesus, the
Apostles, disciples, …….. …….. You in-Christ fit these
shoes?? …The harvest is ready & the workers are few !!! Yes,
we are empowered by Ruach HaKodesh (the Comforter sent by
Yeshua Jesus). We as disciples, work under the same agency
power as Jesus received! |
Acts 10:38 (KJV) 38 How God
anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with
power: who went about doing good, and healing all that
were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
|
|
As we read further into the Exodus
Torah reading, you will appreciate the difficulty a agent
bears. Seek answers to these questions: Were all the
Israelites in Egyptian bondage in agreement to leave with
Moses in an exodus? The plagues were against the Egyptians’
gods to convince the Pharaoh Dudimose to “let My people go.”
Did they convince the Pharaoh? Did the miracles of God
convince a “stiff-necked” people of Abba’s Awesome Power and
Might? Did they convince the Egyptians? the sojourners? God
is working thru His agent, Moses, used these plagues to
temper the people and to bring Glory unto Himself. That is
the purpose of agent ...to glorify God Almighty. |
Exodus 14:4 (KJV) And I
will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow after
them; and I will be honoured (heavy, prevail &
subsequently be glorified) upon Pharaoh, and upon all
his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the
LORD. And they did so.
|
|
 |
Moses was called-out
by the "I Am" of the
burning bush to be a sent-out one in full agency of the
Creator God. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
My people die for lack of Knowledge
amidst false preachers, teachers and prophets as they are
apostate, drunken agents of no worth ..unclean and covered
with vomit. |
|
Isaiah 28:7-13 (KJV) The
spiritual leaders of Jerusalem were “out of the way" (Hebrew
idiom …gone astray…erred)… They were drunkards gone astray
from Torah being disobedient and idolatrous. Your priests &
prophets are not My Agents. Everyone’s memory needed to be
refreshed to their alliance to the Almighty Creator God &
His WORD! There is no sound doctrine for the innocent child.
Return to the literal doctrine of Torah. |
|
Where does Christianity stand in
America today..... Do we need committed godly agents to
bring the whole counsel of God (Old and New Testament ) back
to the people of the nation(s) today? We need to restore the
ancient foundations of our Christian faith.
|

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |

The Apostle Paul’s calling. Acts
9:1-9 (KJV) An Awesome encounter with Yeshua Jesus. Paul
had a “burning” vengeance toward the new Gospel of
Salvation. He considered Yeshua to be a rebel Jew…the
founder of “the Way” cult … Saul set-out to eradicate the
Christian movement of Messianic Judaism conversion. |
|
God can use any one…even those that
persecute His people. |
|
Why was Paul so well versed in Abba’s
Plan of Salvation……Galatians 1:10-20 (KJV). |
|
Abba calls us to a Ministry of
Reconciliation. |
2 Corinthians 5:18-21 (KJV)
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to
himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the
ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in
Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing
their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us
the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are
ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by
us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to
God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew
no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God
in him.

Our Commission and Empowerment…..

Luke 24:43-49 (KJV) 43 And
he took it, and did eat before them. 44 And he said unto
them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while
I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled,
which were written in the law of Moses, and in the
prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me . 45 Then
opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures, 46 And said unto them, Thus
it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and
to rise from the dead the third day : 47 And that
repentance and remission of sins should be preached in
his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem . 48
And ye are witnesses of these things . 49 And, behold, I
send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in
the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power
from on high
|
Acts 1:6-9 (KJV) 6 When they
therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying,
Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom
to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to
know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put
in his own power . 8 But ye shall receive power , after
that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be
witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea,
and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth
. 9 And when he had spoken these things, while they
beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of
their sight.
23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto
them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained
.
|
Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV) 18
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is
given unto me in heaven and in earth . 19 Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Ghost : 20 Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you
alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Mark 16:14-18 (KJV) 14
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. 15 And he said unto
them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to
every creature . 16 He that believeth and is baptized
shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be
damned . 17 And these signs shall follow them that
believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they
shall speak with new tongues ; 18 They shall take up
serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall
not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and
they shall recover.
|
John 14:12-14 (KJV) 12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me,
the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works
than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father . 13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do,
that the Father may be glorified in the Son . 14 If ye
shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
|
John 20:21-23 (KJV) 21 Then
said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my
Father hath sent me, even so send I you . 22 And when he
had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them,
Receive ye the Holy Ghost :

Exodus 9:13-24 (KJV) The
Almighty God does signs and wonders in Egypt greater than
those of the sorcerers and magicians of Pharaoh. The Pharaoh
was raised up for just that day to show God’s Awesome power.
Abba uses both good and wicked agent to do His work. …. but
the wicked agents serve another god. He sets rulers in their
place for just that day!... A Pharaoh who knew Joseph not…..Dudimose,
the Pharaoh of the Exodus. |
Note that many of the Egyptians
are heeding to the words of Moses and put their cattle
and servants in shelters. Those that did not hearken to
God's Word were struck with death by the fire and

Ezekiel 29:1-6 (KJV) Who

Influence you ? To enter you? (Luke 22:3; John 13:2; Acts

and Matthew 7: 21-23 ("I never knew you" so-called
Christian) Judas was an empowered disciple as one of the 12
sent out (Mark 6:7, 12-13). Can God’s spirit leave

sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even
leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the
dragon that is in the sea.
- …“And I (Jesus)
appeared” ….. as the strong right arm of Lord to slay
dragon. What is the Sword He uses? (Rev. 19:11-17
(KJV).

- Who desires to yoke you to
become a child of the darkness?
- Who desires to keep you
from being an agent of Yeshua Jesus?
- Don't be that fish
that sticks to the Leviathan….or the one yoked to
him as you shall become like those with whom you are
yoke yourself …
- Again today, these are
trying times for the “fish” ..Put on the Armor of
God (Ephesians 6:10-16).
- All those associated with
the dragon ("sticky-fish")shall perish in the Feast
of the fallen Leviathan.
- Rev 19:17-18 (KJV)
And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried
with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly
in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves
together unto the supper of the great God; (18) That
ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of
captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh
of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the
flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and
great.

Now let’s examine the fish ….Ramez …
|
Matthew 4:19 (KJV) "And he
saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers
of men."
Ezek 47:1,9-10 (KJV) The living waters from
the millennial temple shall “heal” them (fish) and
nourishing of all that lives.
|
Are all vessels equal? Two choices …
..................Agents of God empowered by Holy Spirit
..................Agents and servants of the Prince of
darkness
But Abba knows since foundations of the world. |
|
2 Timothy 2:20-22 (KJV) Recover
yourself from snare of the devil. Don’t be a “sticky” fish.
Be that vessel of honor! |
|
If you sojourn, fellowship or study
with a deceiver, unbeliever or skeptic, you shall become
like them !!!! Your heart will harden as is theirs. Your
walk will lead you away from the Father...You shall be
deceived just as they are !!! You become like the master you
serve. First, Serve the Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Gospel
of John 21 |
John 21: 1-6(KJV)
Verse 3 It is very interesting that the disciples are
found fishing (in the dark), at The Lord’s third appearance
to them. Verse 5 Note, that Yeshua Jesus says “children.”
Jesus is standing in the position of a father, and what does
a father do for his children? Provide (food, shelter,
protection…) |
John 21:7-11 (KJV)
Verse 8 SG# 4083 Pechus- The forearm (as a measure) a
cubit. ...Cubit- 1 ½ -2 feet long x 200 cubits = 300-400
feet...about the distance of a football field!
Verse 9 The fish and the bread are brought together?
The fish are the Believers (the “Way,” Christians, Messianic
Judaism, the Body of Christ). |

Verse 11 …Kof-
behind, last, least, back of head, holiness, HOLY ONE,
growth cycles = 100; Nun-
life, downfall and rising again, fish, faithfulness = 50;
Gimmel- culmination,
kindness, pride = 3 .....equals 153. In the Paleo-Hebrew
this means The fish of the HOLY ONE are His pride: the
culmination of the reason that Yeshua Jesus can to redeem
man. |

a Passover lamb is selected. Passover is defined by Hebrew
Yom reckoning as Erev 14th Nissan (end of day 13th Nissan).
How many days was the Passover lamb with the family &
examined for perfection?…..3 1/2 days …a day =a year...the
length of Christ's ministry! Smite the firstborn of
all creatures ……unless a blood covering. |

Exodus 12:22-23 (KJV)
22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the
blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the
two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none
of you shall go out at the door of his house until the
morning. 23 For the LORD will pass through to smite the
Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and
on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and
will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to
smite you.

he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no
uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.”

Colossians 2:9-11 (KJV) 9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead
bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head
of all principality and power: 11 In whom also ye are
circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in
putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the
circumcision of Christ:
|
Romans 2:27-29 (KJV) 27 And
shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it
fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and
circumcision dost transgress the law? 28 For he is not a
Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that
circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he
is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is
that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter;
whose praise is not of men, but of God.
|
|
The blood is on the doorpost of our
heart in that we have a heart of flesh not of stone. We are
thus also circumcised not in the physical but in the
spiritual by the Holy Spirit who dwell in the Temple of our
heart. |

Acts 13:14-39 (KJV) Paul is
preaching the Gospel message in the synagogue on the
Sabbath. He reviews an Emmaus Road experience of the “chosen
people” to know their Messiah, Yeshua Jesus. Whom are his
Sabbath audience?.. Jews, Messianic
Jews and Gentiles [God-fearers (verses 16 &26)]....That
folks is the 1st century Church which is best
represented today by the Hebraic Christian congregations
founded in Torah and Hebrew roots. |
|
The promise is from the seed of David
but His own knew Him not verse 27. Yeshua Jesus was raised
from the dead, and hell could not hold a just, righteous
Torah observant Jew. He, that defeated the curse penalty of
Adam and Torah, now justifies us, as the Son of God, the
prophetic Passover Lamb whose blood covers our heart. |
|
By My blood & stripes you are SAVED (SOZO*).
For all who come to Me will have everlasting life.
*
means in the Greek to be preserved from evil, to be
delivered from the death curse of Torah, to be cured or made
well (healed, made whole, recover), to be restored from a
fallen Adam, to be preserved to be under the fig tree) |

Exodus 13:17-14:9 (KJV)…
The Exodus was in 1447 BC. When God sent Moses (Beshalach),
Moses took up his staff and split the Red Sea at the site of
an sandy land bridge crossing. God conquers for His people.
|
 |
Issues:
- Why harden the Pharaoh's
heart? .. just let “bygones be bygones!”
- Number of People?
- Route of the Exodus?
- Where is the crossing site?
- Where is Mt. Horeb (Mt.
Sinai)?
|
|
The number of people in the Exodus
including the age-specified fighting men, their wives, their
children, those over 60 years of age, the Levites and those
who joined the Israelites (sojourners) consisted of a
mixed-multitude of about 3 million people lead by Moses. |
|
Pharaoh owed the Hebrew slaves; both he
and Moses were in agreement to take a 3 day journey into
wilderness to worship the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob and
to return to Goshen. When Pharaoh died in Red sea, the
Hebrew slaves were free.
|
Psalm. 136:10-16(KJV)10 To

hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy
endureth for ever. 13 To him which divided the Red sea
into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever: 14 And made
Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy
endureth for ever: 15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his
host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for
ever. 16 To him which led his people through the
wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever.

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Romans 6:1-14 (KJV) Guard your
salvation with fear and trembling. Baptism is a symbolic
death reminder of dying to sin. The Spirit of God keeps us
on the narrow road away from destruction, if we use Torah as
our schoolmarm to be holy as He is Holy. We shall be in His
resurrection likeness! Christ was the only and final atoning
sacrifice, that by Him man might have everlasting life…
Telelestai. God conquers
sin for His people. |
|
You are freed from sin’s death
penalty/eternal condemnation… to receive salvation by Christ
Jesus….. Salvation is only through Christ not by the law…but
live in Torah obedience… verse 12-13. |
|
Romans 7:12 (KJV) Wherefore the
law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
|
|
Walk not after the world (flesh) but after the Spirit of
God. |
|
Romans 8:1-5 (KJV)...note 2
witnesses state and testify that we "walk not after the
flesh but after the Spirit of God." as seen in 8:1 and 8:4.
This is such a powerful salvation message that the Gnostic
Alexandrian texts (the Codex Sinaiticus and the Codex
Vaticanus) have deleted it. Fostering the doctrine that you
have irresistible grace as proposed by Calvinism. |
Deu. 4:2 (KJV) Ye shall not
add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye
diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the
commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Deu. 12:32 (KJV) What thing soever I command you,
observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor
diminish from it.
|
|
Note Bible versions with Gnostic
deletions: They deviate from the text-type of The Received
Text (Textus Receptus) upon which the KJV is based. |
|
Romans
8:1 (KJV, YLT, NKJV) There is
therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ
Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
|
|
In the ASV, NAS, NIV, RS, NRs, ESB, NLT,
ISV, GNT, Holman’sCSB, and Darby It reads:
Therefore there is now no condemnation
for those who are in Christ Jesus. |
|
The New Century
Version reads: So now, those
who are in Christ Jesus are not judged guilty. |
The Message reads:
With the arrival of Jesus, the
Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter
into Christ’s being-here-for-us no longer have to live under
a continuous, low-lying black cloud.
|
|
Complete Jewish Bible reads:
Therefore,
there is no longer any condemnation awaiting those who are
in union with the Messiah Yeshua. |

Isaiah 6:1-13 (KJV) What is the

“unclean lips” שׂפה śâphâh saw-faw’……
language, lip, speech, vain talk, vain words, prating
(to tell idle, to talk too much & foolishly, babble,
chatter). The evil tongue or lashon hara!
|
|
The tongue is the direct portal to
what's really in your heart. |
|
The tongue synthesizes from the 5
senses (sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch) and expresses
the true nature of your heart. Those involved in
Gossip/Slander -you are under the influence of a Lying
Spirit of the kingdom of darkness. You have a corrupt heart-
corrupt mind.

Matthew 15:11 (KJV)
“Not that which goeth into the
mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the
mouth, this defileth a man “
James 3:8,10 (KJV) (8) But the tongue can
no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly
poison...... (10) Out of the same mouth proceedeth
blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought

For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath
he (Abba) sent me (LORD of Hosts, Jesus) unto the
nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you
toucheth the apple of his (ABBA) eye.
|
|
A Commission is given to Isaiah to be
sent to a apostate people? ..Note, the state of the People?
"I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips"...in

as a barometer of their spiritual state of disobedience and
idolatry.

Matthew 5:17-20 (KJV)
Jesus is the WORD….even to the fine detail of yod

|
Romans 7:7-13 (KJV) Paul gives
an understanding that the law defines sin. The law allows us
to face head-on the true nature of the flesh. |

Romans 7:14- 25 (KJV) 2 laws war
within the Christian…The law of sin (the flesh) & the Law of
God (the Spirit)….choose whom you will serve. |

Can the Law in Stone be ignored? Note,
these comments by Yeshua, Paul James and John. |
Jesus:
John 14:15 (KJV) If ye love me, keep my
commandments.
Paul: Romans 7:12 (KJV)
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy,
and just, and good.
James: James 2:8 (KJV)If
ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture,
Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do
well:
John: 1 John 3:4 (KJV)
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law:
for sin is the transgression of the law.
|
|
The Law tells of Jesus. Paul is
teaching from the Tanach to find Jesus for wayward Jews.
|
Act 28:23 (KJV) And when
they had appointed him (Paul) a day, there came many to
him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified
the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus,
both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets,
from morning till evening. .

Exodus 19:16-19 (KJV)16 And it
came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there
were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the
mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that
all the people that was in the camp trembled. 17 And Moses
brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God;
and they stood at the nether part of the mount. 18 And mount
Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended
upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke
of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. 19 And
when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder
and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.

Jeremiah 34:8-17 (KJV) Set your
brother in-bondage free. But the liberty of this Torah
mishpatim is negated by man's corrupt mind. Example
of people breaking covenant (mishpatim). Can we ignore an
instruction and not expect judgments? How is his Name
polluted? …Verse 16. To ignore this mishpatim of God's WORD
violates the 3rd Commandment to honor His Name. We pollute His Name when were do not
obey His WORD. God is Just and True and has the final
Word. Break the covenant law then you die (Hebrews 10:28).

TORAH |
|
The Israelites left Egypt with great
wealth (gold, silver, precious stones, linen, livestock) to
contribute to building God’s Tabernacle. |
|
House of the Living God
A
Cloud by day.'
A
pillar of Fire by night. |
 |
|
Exodus 25:1-9 (KJV)
Terumah offering from the people to provide for God’s House.
They were to give willingly.... as a Heave offering? ....
|
Exodus 29:27-28 (KJV) “27
And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering,
and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved,
and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration,
even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is
for his sons: 28 And it shall be Aaron’s and his sons’
by a statute for ever from the children of Israel: for
it is an heave offering: and it shall be an heave
offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifice of
their peace offerings, even their heave offering unto
the LORD.” ..
|
|
Heave
offering: Is that choice portion of the sacrifice
peace offering that was set apart and reserved for Abba
Father and is ‘heaved upward’ ..released totally from us to
Him to be given to His Priesthood.....To provide
provisions for Abba’s House.
|
|
Heave offering? .... Shadow of What?
Malachi 3:6-11(KJV) |
|
A House designed by God….Exodus
26:1-37 (KJV). We are to learn the Mishkan, the
Tabernacle. |
Ezekiel 44:5 (KJV) “And the
LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well (know), and
behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all
that I say unto thee concerning all the ordinances of
the house of the LORD, and all the laws thereof; and
mark well (know well) the entering in of the house, with
every going forth of the sanctuary” (mine*).
|
|
Tabernacle is a a Shadow of Christ. …Exodus
26:14 (KJV) "14 And thou shalt make a covering for the
tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering above of
badgers’ skins." The bedouin, unsightly nature of the
outside of the Tabernacle was uncomely. |
Isaiah 53:2-4(KJV) "For he
shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a
root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor
comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no
beauty that we should desire him. (3) He is despised
and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted
with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he
was despised, and we esteemed him not. (4) Surely he
hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we
did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted."

1 Kings 5:1-12 (KJV) Solomon’s
Temple ….The 2nd Temple . |
|
Rebuilt in 536 BC under Zerubbabel, the
Governor, and Jeshua, the High Priest…with assistance of
Ezra (457 BC) and Nehemiah (444 BC). |
|
King
David provided Terumah for Temple
(2 chronicles 3:17 & 1 Chronicles
29:1-9 (KJV) .
|
|
Note, that
Solomon's Temple is different from the Tabernacle as it has
a portico with two pillars. |

Zerubbabel's Temple was expanded and
completed by Herod the Great…. Destroyed 70 AD by Romans. |

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Without a Temple ...How are we provided with a dwelling
Place for God today? |
|
Hebrews
10:1 (KJV) 1 For the law having a shadow of good things
to come, and not the very image of the things, can never
with those sacrifices which they offered year by year
continually make the comers thereunto perfect. |
|
Hebrews 8:1-6 (KJV) That shadow
of good things to come is the New Covenant mediated by
Christ. A covenant having better Promises. .. Sin price
absolutely paid in full…tetelestai. |
|
Hebrews 8:7-13 (KJV) Jeremiah’s
promise is fulfilled in Christ to the House of Israel
amongst the Gentiles (Church) (Jer. 31:31-34). It’s
final fulfillment for the Jew is eminent. (House of Judah). |
|
Justification is thru Jesus’ Blood..
V.12 ..Now under New Covenant …Faith first which leads to
good works. Hence, the first covenant.. “old” …. “decayeth”…
to vanish away as no man is justified by works.. Else wise
Jesus’ death was in vain. Gal 2:21(KJV() "I do not
frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the
law, then Christ is dead in vain." |
|
What then
today is the Purpose of the Law?.. |
- Law is a shadow
pointing to Christ.
- And a reminder pointing
back to temporary nature of the daily and Yom Kippur
sacrifices.
- It served then and
today to define sin (iniquities) and gives
instructions of how to walk in a righteous
relationship with the Creator God.
- It points to God’s love for
you….His Love letters.
- It gives instructions of
how to walk in God’s-kind-of-Love.
- Every law is an
example/instruction of how to live in a Love
relationship.
- A codex to achieve
Spiritual perfection. (telios).
|
Hebrews 9:21-24 (KJV) “21
Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle,
and all the vessels of the ministry. 22 And almost all
things are by the law purged with blood; and without
shedding of blood is no remission. 23 It was therefore
necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens
should be purified with these; but the heavenly things
themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24 For
Christ is not entered into the holy places made with
hands, which are the figures of the true; but into
heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for
us:”
|
|
Righteousness after salvation is a
process…we must keep in fellowship with Abba…no breaches due
to sin or idolatry. You can live under the God’s Covenant
Blessings or Curses! (Deuteronomy 28:1-14; 15-45). |
|
Where
is the Blood covering today??? How is our Temple built?
|
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 (KJV)
“16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that
the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man defile
the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple
of God is holy, which temple ye are.”
|
|
Today, we have a
circumcised heart with Torah written on our heart by Holy
Spirit, who leads us in a Love covenant:
Love God/Love your
brother/sister. |
 |
|
Unrighteousness is conquered
for the Believer by making your heart the Temple of God and
walking in God’s-kind-of-LOVE… |

yourself unto the Lord “as a living sacrifice.” We approach
the Father through the Son, being a holy, sweet aroma, by
loving one another as He loves us. He finds pleasure in our

free-will,Terumah offering. Yeshua Jesus is our High
Priest and Intercessor.

Revelation 8:3 (KJV) And another

Exodus 27:20-21 (KJV)
Preparation of the oil for the Menorah. Can you see Christ?
|
|
Exodus 25:6 (KJV)
"Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet
incense." |
|
Exodus 29:1-9 (KJV)
The anointing of the Priests. |
משׁיח (H4899 mâshîyach.. maw-shee'-akh),
The Anointed One, The mâshîyach, The Christos, The
Christ, is to rule and reign over all the world from the
Temple in Jerusalem. His Coronation ceremony is when the
Father gives Him the title deed to planet Earth in His
Father’s Throne room. King Joash’s coronation is a
example of the Hebrew ceremony of coronation of a King.
. 2 Kings 11:11-12 (KJV)
|
To anoint: משׁח(H4886
mâshach maw-shakh') This is to rub with oil, that is,
to anoint; by implication to consecrate; to separate
unto God; to make holy. The fragrant smell of anointing
oil has a diffusing effervescence into the surroundings,
similar to the hovering of the Holy Spirit over the
creation.
|
|
Use anointing oil with reverence.
Anointing Oil is Holy. Its preparation is given in Exodus
30:22-38 (KJV). We are not to make these similar anointing
solutions as they are Holy unto God. |
|
Anointing practices are to be used to
anoint God’s House and His Royal Priesthood. |
Leviticus 8:10-12 (KJV) "10
And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the
tabernacle and all that was therein, and sanctified
them. 11 And he sprinkled thereof upon the altar seven
times, and anointed the altar and all his vessels, both
the laver and his foot, to sanctify them. 12 And he
poured of the anointing oil upon Aaron’s head, and
anointed him, to sanctify him."

useful again? The Glory of the Lord shall return to the
Temple. |
Ezekiel 43:4-5 (KJV) "And
the glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of
the gate whose prospect is toward the east. So the
spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court;
and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house."
|

Ezekiel 44:1-3 (KJV) The East
Gate. The Prince of the Lord shall rule as Lord of lords and
King of kings.

Isaiah 9:6 (KJV)
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is
given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The
mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of
Peace."
|
Rev. 1:5 (KJV) "And from
Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first
begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the
earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our
sins in his own blood,"
|
|
In the millennial Temple Christ rules
with “iron Hand” under Torah. Rev. 19:15 (KJV) "And
out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should
smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of
iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and
wrath of Almighty God."

Millennial Sacrifices !!!...????? …Why?
Answer this question with the question: Why were there
sacrifices before the Cross on Calvary? |
|
Sacrifices in Millennial Temple: (Ezek.
40:38-43; Ezekiel 45:17; 45:18-25; 46:12-15; Isa. 56:7,
66:20-23; Jer. 33:18; Zech. 14:16-21; Mal. 3:3-4.) |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Romans 12:1-8 (KJV) God is well
pleased with your sacrifices. Give Prayer and Yourself as a
“living sacrifice.” These are simple guidelines to becoming
an Overcomer. It starts with humility. Kahol fellowship and
being a part of the Body
by obedience. |
|
Romans 12:9-21 (KJV) Let Love be
without hypocrisy. These are the guidelines to stay in
fellowship with God. |
|
Philippians 4:13 (KJV) “I can do
all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” |
This is how we do our Halachah! The
Holy Spirit that dwells in us is the Agent of the Father and
Son. Christ created all things and holds all together. An
Awesome God.

Remember Purim is
this week (March 10-11, 2009). It is a time to read Then
Book of Esther. Also note below the Hebrew/Jewish custom of
taking care of the needy. |
Purim
Katan is in Adar (10-11 March 2009) A time to
heap upon the needy your gifts in brotherly love.
1. Half-shekel Terumah = give currency to three needy
persons .
2. Misho’ach manos = exchange with a needy friend gifts
of food.
3. Gifts delivered by a third party (agent) rather than
donor to a needy person.
Giving serves to commemorate love
and brotherhood between friends.

Exodus 32:1-16 (KJV) God is a

were written on both sides. An end time clue. (Revelation
5:1) Remember King Joash’s coronation ceremony?... He was
given a crown; the Testimony (Torah); anointed and made
King. (2 Kings 11:12) The Tablets (Torah) are the

Aaron’s failure (His Short Spiritual

Haftorah |
Ezekiel 36:16-28 (KJV) A
scattering and a re-gathering/ restoration/ reconciliation.
Idols polluted the Northern Kingdom (Idolatry/adultery).
This was unacceptable to our jealous God. Hence, they were
sown amongst the heathen where they were a poor example of
God’s people and they slandered God’s Name. They became the
“lost sheep.” The lost sheep were given a new Heart, with
the Holy Spirit within them as a part of the New Covenant (Jer.
31:31-33) and a heart of flesh. Their idolatrous heart
of stone is removed by the Holy Spirit. Torah is written on
your Heart.

1 Corinthians 10:1-14 (KJV)
Christ was the deliverer …. the Rock. Tempt not Christ lest
the destroyer destroys you. A restoration through fire. Be
enduring in perseverance as He is watching over you.
Flee Idolatry ….be obedient….be Christ-like. Don’t be double
minded. |
1 Corinthians 10:21-22 (KJV)
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of
devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord ’s Table, and
of the table of devils. 22 Do we provoke the Lord to
jealousy? Are we stronger than he?
James 1:8 (KJV) A double minded man is unstable
in all his ways.
James 4:7-8 (KJV) Submit yourselves therefore to
God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (8)
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse
your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye
double minded.

Idolatry = Adultery. |

As the Bride approaches her perfected
state (telios), her eyes will not be off her husband. She is

TORAH |
|
Since our reading today is about the
Levitical Sacrifices, let us examine an overview of
sacrifices. Korban in the Hebrew means a sacrifice, which
transliterates into English meaning ...“to draw near”
to God. |
|
The
Levitical Sacrifices, |
1. they were a temporary blood covering
for unintentional sin. Intentional sin’s penalty was a
stoning death.
2. Their purpose: Korban …to draw near to Abba
3. They point to Jesus as the final atoning Sacrifice Who
freed man from death and the death penalty.
|
|
Minchah is to give offerings to bestow
or appropriate gifts to ABBA. They are animal (Zevachim) or
grain (Menachot). |
|
Sacrifice Order: The order and
priorities to present offerings. |
Mandatory …Sin / Trespass
offering for sin.
Voluntary |
… Burnt (a complete commitment
to God)
……Peace (Fellowship meal with Abba in union & harmony)
……Meal “meat” (communal meal with God as a grain & peace
offering)
|
|
Leviticus 1:1-13 (KJV) Burnt
offering = Olah (whole or total offering ascending to
God) except skin is given to Priests.. A voluntary offering
given completely to the Lord. Nothing withheld…surrender
entirely to Abba.
|
|
Today, what is your burnt offering
given with nothing withheld! …..Yourself as a “Living
sacrifice” (Romans 12:1). . |
|
It is as an incomplete offering, when
you hold onto Egypt or the desires of the flesh. Give the
whole offering. |
Psalm 51:19 (KJV) Then
shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of
righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt
offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine
altar.
Deu. 33:10 (KJV) They shall teach Jacob thy
judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense
before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
|
|
Sacrifices to Abba were
offered on the north side of the altar. Jesus’ Blood at
Calvary was shed on the north side of the altar. (Lev. 1:11
JKV) |
 |
|
Lev 1:11 (KJV) And he shall kill
it on the side of the altar northward before the LORD: and
the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle his blood round
about upon the altar. |

Introduction: The Israelites were a
stubborn/stiff-necked, disobedient, idolatrous people. They
had become half-hearted in they offering of sacrifices to
Abba. |
|
Isaiah 6:9-10 (KJV) 9 And
he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but
understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make
the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and
shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear
with their ears, and understand with their heart, and
convert, and be healed. |
|
Abba has to remind them Who He
is!...Isaiah 43:11 (KJV) I, even I, am the LORD; and
beside me there is no saviour. |
|
Isaiah 43:20-28 (KJV) A people
turned to a sinful nature since Adam. You can Live under the
Blessing or the Curses (Deuteronomy 28:1-48). |
|
Romans 6:12 (KJV) Let not sin
therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it
in the lusts thereof. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Romans 8:1-13 (KJV) |
Rom. 8:1 …Is this an important
statement? Condemnation …to be put under adverse
judgment, doomed, condemned.
|
|
Romans 8:1 (KJV)1 There is
therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ
Jesus, who walk not after the
flesh, but after the Spirit. |
|
The newer Bible translations take their
text-type from the Gnostic Alexandrian manuscripts which
contain deletions of God's Word. The NIV has 68,000
deletions! LOOK FOR EXAMPLE. |
|
Rom.8:1 (NIV) Therefore, there
is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
Rom. 8:1 (NCV) 1 So now, those
who are in Christ Jesus are not judged guilty.
|
Rom. 8:1 (NLT) So now there is
no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.
Rom.8:1 (SCJB) Therefore, there
is no longer any condemnation awaiting those who are in
union with Messiah Yeshua. |
|
You become a New Creation in Christ (Romans
10:9-11)… Hence, live in the image of Christ by the
walking not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Romans
8:6 (KJV) 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to
be spiritually minded is life and peace. |
|
Hebrews 10:23-31 (KJV)
Condemnation against willful sin for NT saints. Under both
1st and 2nd Covenant willful sin can lead to death …. Just
as Adam sinned there was physical death and spiritual death.
Sin puts you under the Curses of the Law and opens portals
to turn you over to the devourer.
|
|
Don’t kick against the geode. Submit to
the Lord. Don’t be a rebellious, stiff-necked, contentious,
Israelite….. |
|
Live Christ like. 1 Peter
2:17-25 (KJV) Be spiritually deeply rooted. Be in
obedience and love…. |
 |
|
Be walking in the Fruits of the Spirit…
Receive your Gifts from above…The Glory of Abba. The Glory
of His presence is within you. Abba is Calling His People ….SHEMA

Leviticus 6:8-8:36; Malachi
3:1-4:6; Hebrews 13:10 -16; 1 Timothy 2:1-10; Mark 12:28-34;
Romans 12:1-2; 1 Corinthians 10:14 -23.
|
|
Topic:
Abba’s Command to today's wicked world
is the same as it was to the Pharaoh of Egypt at the time of
the Hebrew Exodus at Passover. “Let MY People Go!” Today, we
examine the preparation of the Righteous Man thru the
fullness of Abba’s plan from Messiah Ben Joseph to Messiah
Ben David. |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
An Introduction to Christ from Torah.
Leviticus 4:1-12 (KJV) The Sin Offering was for
unintentional sin as a blood sacrifice before the
Lord…preserving the best fat as fragrant incense to the
Lord. The entire (WHOLE) sacrifice was burnt to ashes
outside the Camp. Can you See Yeshua Jesus? |
|
Leviticus 8:5-13 (KJV) This is
the first offering of priestly sacrifices by an ordained
Priesthood according to the Priestly protocol: |
Leviticus 8:14-21 (KJV) Order:
Sin offering; Volunteer Burnt offering
Order: Christ atoning death; Our Redemption. We are bought
for a price. This is the meaning of Passover. |
|
You In-Christ, as a volunteer burnt
offering, give yourself as a korban (“living sacrifice”).
|
|
Yeshua Jesus told the Jews that He was
Messiah Ben Joseph. Luke 4:16-21 (KJV) He was quoting
Isaiah (Isaiah 61:1-2), but stopped short of the
complete reading leaving unsaid "and the day of vengeance of
our God; to comfort all that mourn;" Note, the GAP of 2000
years. In this gap we see both Messiah Ben Joseph and
Messiah Ben David. As Messiah Ben Joseph being filled
with The Holy Spirit, He did indeed complete all these
prophetic mandates: "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me;
because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings
unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the
prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable
year of the LORD" |
|
Yet today, we are awaiting “the day of
vengeance of our God” when His Wrath falls upon the world
ruled by the antichrist. Then Messiah Ben David will
return as the ruling King. We are redeemed by the King of
kings and the Lord of lords. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
Preparation for Christ’s return.
Malachi 4:1-6 (KJV) The great and terrible day of the
Lord. The role of Elijah, the Messenger before the Lord: 1st
Coming of Elijah was as John The Baptist; His 2nd Coming
will be as the Passover Elijah. |
|
Luke 1:17 (KJV) And he
(John the Baptist) shall go before him (Jesus) in the spirit
and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the
children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to
make ready a people prepared for the Lord. |
|
This Passover, we again await this day
and we have a place setting for Elijah at the Passover
Seder. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Abba’s Plan: OT concealed…NT revealed. |
|
Hebrews 13:11-17 (KJV) Can you
see “Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the
world” (John 1:29). Jesus was the Passover Lamb.
|
|
Pilate proclaimed Him “King of the
Jews.” Yeshua Jesus is King of kings. Luke 23:38 (KJV)
"And a superscription also was written over him in
letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF
THE JEWS." |
|
Was Pilate correct that Messiah Ben
Joseph was at that time in Nisan the King of the Jews?
|
|
What is the formalities of becoming
King of The Jews? |
- To be anointed. Mary anoints
Jesus with spikenard days before the 14 of Nisan. Was
this for burial or for His kingship or both [John
12:3-8 (KJV)]
- To parade into Jerusalem to be
received by the people. Zechariah 9:9b (KJV)"..behold,
thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having
salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a
colt the foal of an ass." John 12:13 (KJV) "Took
branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and
cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that
cometh in the name of the Lord."
- To be vestured in a royal robe.
John 19:2-3 (KJV) "And the soldiers platted a crown
of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a
purple robe, 3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and
they smote him with their hands."
- To be crowned on the 14th of
Nisan. A Israelite king is formally crowned on the 14th
of Nisan but His rule is retroactive to begin with the
religious New Year of 1 Nisan. (Prophecy in the News;
April 2009, page 3)
- His official title is
recognized by the world. John 19:19-20 (KJV) 19
And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And
the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place
where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it
was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
1 Timothy 2:4-6 (KJV) Yes,
all shall recognize Yeshua Jesus in due time. This is
the One Message from Genesis to Revelation ... We are
redeemed by the King of kings the Lord of lords….and Every
knee shall bow to Him….. |
Romans 14:11 (KJV) For it is
written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to
me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

TORAH |
|
Ezekiel 36:34-38 (KJV)
Restoration of a barren Land, a fallen people, restoration
of cities, even unto the magnitudes of the crowds in
Jerusalem during the Feasts days of the Lord. |
|
Up to Jerusalem for the Passover Feast:
The annual Passover Feast was a memorable rejoicing time of
renewing friendships, seeking new acquaintances or finding a
wife; teaching and learning, shopping, and remembering the
aromas and the awesome nature of the Temple. . |
|
At the time of Yeshua, the permanent
residents in Jerusalem were about 600,000. One lamb per
household would accommodate 10-20 guests and family. During
this feast over 200,000 Passover lambs were slaughtered to
provide for an expanded population of about 3 million. The
High Priest slaughtered His Lamb at about the 9th hour
(2:30-3:00 pm) |
|
Numbers 28:16-18, 25 (KJV)…A
Clear distinction between Passover and Unleavened Bread
|
- 16 And in the
fourteenth day of the first month is the passover of the
LORD.
- 17 And in the
fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days
shall unleavened bread be eaten.
|
|
The first day of the Feast of
Unleavened Bread was a High Holy Sabbath day wherein there
would be a holy convocation and no one was to
work. It became the Jews Feast day for the "passover." A
frame-shift. |
|
Passover Seder was on the Erev 14th
Nisan for in Jesus' own words He asked His disciple to
prepare this “Passover” Luke 22:15 (KJV) And he said
unto them, With desire I have desired
to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
|
- Matthew 26:18 (KJV)
- Mark 14:14 (KJV)
- Luke 22:8 (KJV
- Luke 22:11 (KJV)
|
|
Exodus 34:18 (KJV) describes the
7 day Feast of Unleavened Bread |
|
Exodus 34:22-23 (KJV) The Feast
of Weeks =Shavuot (Pentecost). Feast of Ingathering =
Sukkoth (Feast of Tabernacles) Now, in this teaching, we
observe the full cycle of spring, summer and the fall

Fall Feasts: Yeshua Jesus comes for a Bride.
As He comes for His Bride, there will be fulfillment and a
portrayal of The Jewish wedding. She know not the time (day

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
Matthew 27:62-66 (KJV) Knavery
of the chief priests and Pharisees on the High Holy Day.
They remember His words … “I will arise after 3 days”;
Pilate said “Make it as secure as you can!”
Tomb was sealed and they set a Roman watch. |
|
Luke 23:54-56 (KJV) Ever since
Yeshua Jesus' death on the preparation day of the 14th of
Nisan (Abib), the women were eager, ready and prepared to
preserve His body with spices and ointments, but Torah and
oral Torah delayed their going to the tomb. They could not
defile themselves with a dead body for they would
become " unclean" for the Sabbath. |
- 14th Nisan was Jesus' Passover
(“preparation day”) Wednesday
- 15th Nisan High Holy Day…as a
Sabbath Thursday
- 16th Friday preparation for
Sabbath
- 17th
Sabbath
- 18th
Sunday
|
|
This year (April 2009) has the days of
the week that are of the same sequence as when Jesus was
crucified. This really allows us to walk through the
Passover week in real time! |
|
 |
|
Thus according to Jewish tradition and
Torah, the women had no window of opportunity to embalm and
prepare the body of Jesus. After sundown of weekly Sabbath,
women came to tomb in various groups. |
|
 |
|
Christ completed exactly and precisely
3days/3 nights in the belly of the Earth. On Erev 17th
Nisan when the High Priest cuts Barley sheaves of First
Fruits, Christ had already risen! Christ was First
Fruits of Resurrection…Empty tomb/Risen Christ. They could
not produce a body! |
|
1 Corinthians 15:20-24 (KJV) But
now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the
firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death,
by man came also the resurrection of the dead . For as in
Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive .
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming. Then cometh
the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God,
even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and
all authority and power. |
|
The fullness of time comes when Christ
enemies are under His foot; the wicked no longer prevail;
the Bride is safe in Shalom and the Kingdom is returned to
the Father. |

camp...the sheepfold? |
 |
|
God’s Wrath:
Trials and tribulations… By His “tough love” you
return to Fellowship with Abba as you are failing in your
Christian walk or A “Job” time of testing to purify

He will remove the wicked from the
sheep fold. Our God is longsuffering that all might come to
repentance and in His eternal fellowship. Satan and the
wicked shall perish (Book of Revelation). |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Leviticus 10:1- 7(KJV) What were
the transgressions of Nadab and Abihu?...Strange Fire…….Whew
! |
Exodus 30:7-9 (KJV) “And
Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning:
when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon
it. 8 And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he
shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before
the LORD throughout your generations. 9 Ye shall
offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt
sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour
drink offering thereon.”
|
|
Hebrews 10:31 (KJV) It is a
fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. |
|
Did that put the fear of God into the
Levitical Priesthood? Does that put the fear of God into
You? |
- Deuteronomy 8:6 (KJV)
Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the
LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to
fear him.
- Deu 6:24 And the
LORD commanded us to do all these statutes,
to fear the LORD our God,
for our good always, that he might preserve us
alive, as it is at this day.
- Deu. 6:2 That thou
mightest fear the LORD thy
God, to keep all his statutes and his
commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy
son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life;
and that thy days may be prolonged.
- Deuteronomy 10:12-13
(KJV) 12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy
God require of thee, but to
fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his
ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God
with all thy heart and with all thy soul, 13 To keep
the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes,
which I command thee this day for thy good?
|
|
The God of the OT is portrayed as
angry/judgmental/harsh, while The God of NT is loving and
nurturing. Today, fear is replaced by respect for God and
His benevolence. |
|
God Fear
is humility in knowing that He, alone, has the power to
condemn your soul to hell…. an eternal separation from God.
Your eternal destiny is based on your relationship with the
Father through the Son. |
|
Fear
God and be in God's Book of Remembrances: Malachi
3:16 (KJV)16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often
one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a
book of remembrance was written before him for them that
feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
2 Samuel 6:1-11 (KJV) Does
Abba’s Torah mean what it says and say what it means? (My
laws are in Torah). Again strange fire before the Lord! ‘My
way or the highway’…defiance …a rebel. What is Abba saying
so that we might understand today?? Protocol is set forth in
the scriptures on how to approach the Lord and serve Him as
a ”good and faithful servant” |
|
Constantine and the Church of Rome
created doctrine from pagan feasts, and these customs and
traditions were presented to a gullible and non-discerning
people as” holy unto the Lord.” “Thou shall have no god
before (alongside, beside or in addition to) Me” (1st
Commandment) (Exodus 20:3). Seek wise counsel…Acts
17:11. |
What are we to honor?…The Feasts of
Man or The Feasts of God? Consider the source of the
Feasts of Man …Read any encyclopedia about Easter and
Christmas …They are all about pagan gods. “Thou shall
have no god before (alongside, beside or in addition to)
Me” (1st Commandment) (Exodus 20:3)
Exodus 23:13(KJV) 13 And in all things that I
have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention
of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out
of thy mouth .

Acts 5:1-11 (KJV) The Ananias
and Sapphira deception. What are they bringing into the
House of God....Defilement !!!...Deception!!!!.. Strange
Fire. Did the early Christian Church fear God? Don’t be
another Nadab and Abihu?...God’s Wrath is death
(physical/spiritual.) |
|
Hebrews 10:31 (KJV) It is a
fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. |
|
Now NT Scriptures that we should fear
God with genuine fear! |
- 2 Corinthians 7:1
Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let
us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the
flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in
the fear of God.
- Ephesians 5:21 Submitting
yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
- Hebrews 12:28
Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be
moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God
acceptably with reverence and
godly fear:
- 1Peter 2:17 Honour
all men. Love the brotherhood.
Fear God. Honour
the king.
- Revelation 14:7
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give
glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come:
and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the
sea, and the fountains of waters.
|
|
God is Immutable; therefore The OT-NT
God is the same. |
|
The Immutable
Father: Malachi 3:6 (KJV) 6 For I am the
LORD, I change not; Note Abba’s Tribulation wrath ( Rev.
16:1). |
|
The Immutable Jesus:
Hebrews 13:8 (KJV) 8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday,
and to day, and for ever. Note Jesus’ Tribulation Wrath
(Rev. 7:16-17). |
|
Will you take the mark of the beast??…
Fear man more than God?
|
|
Since God cannot change then who must
change? Is God equally judgmental to all? He is a
Righteous and Just God. |
|
1 Peter 1:13- 23 (KJV) Is God
partial to person? Be ye holy; for I am holy. * Be
holy in all manner of conversation; The poor in Spirit
(meek/humble) will inherit the Kingdom of Heaven.. The Olam
Haba. |
*Leviticus 11:44-45 (KJV)
“For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify
yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither
shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping
thing that creepeth upon the earth. 45 For I am the LORD
that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be
your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.”
|
|
How should we appear before the LORD? |
- Tithes and offerings
brought into the storehouse of God.
- Spend time in the WORD of
God.
- Prayer.. Supplication..
Intercession.
- Forgiving one another.
- Perpetual incense of our
prayers.
- Fasting/Prayer.
- Sacrifice given as the
Praise of your lips.
- Worship ..enter the Throne
Room thru Yeshua Jesus.
- Lift Holy Hands in worship
to the Lord.
- Love.. The Lord and
… Love one another.
- Be of a contrite heart,
meek and humble.
- Communion.. Partake of the
Lord’s Supper or else He will have no part of you!
- Halakah (your projected
walk as in the image of Christ)
- Obedience to God because we
love Him
- Walk not after the
traditions of man....But in the Fruits of the Spirit
- Give yourself as a “living
sacrifice.”
- Accountability and
Repentance
- Be of a pure & circumcised
heart
- Be Holy as I Am Holy …Be a
clean vessel to be used by the Lord

Topic:
We are conceived in the natural and
born of women when released from amniotic fluid. Those in
Christ are conceived of Holy Spirit when “born-again” being
released from “old self” in Baptism of water. |
|
John 3:1-6 (KJV) We are
conceived in image of Christ by Holy Spirit being
“born-again” as Jesus explains to Nicodemus. Being
“born-again” is rebirth, you are Holy Spirit filled, and all
past sin is covered by the Blood of Christ and the Father
does not see or remember your sin anymore…You are justified.
Now, you are in perfect fellowship with God the Father.
|
|
New transgressions,
iniquities, and sin make you unclean, and separates you from
the Father. Sin causes a breach in your relationship of that
perfect walk with God, and you become separated from Abba.
The Torah is for our instruction of God’s will for us, so
that with repentance we are kept in the sheepfold. |
 |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
How do the clean become unclean? |
|
Leviticus 12:1-8 (KJV) The issue
of Blood in females concerns a womb (uterine)
discharge. |
- Postpartum: Isolation for
mother’s health and her bonding with Baby.
- Menstrual: Isolation to
protect an open womb.
- Spontaneously: …irritable
uterus. Rule out disease/curses (Derek Prince/
Brian Holmes )
|
Luke 2:22-24 (KJV) 22 And
when the days of her purification according to the law
of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to
Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; 23 (As it is
written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth
the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) 24 And to
offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the
law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young
pigeons.
|
When was Yeshua Jesus circumcised?
(Lev. 12:3)
Was Jesus born into a wealthy family? (Lev. 12:6,8)
Was He, Himself, the lamb to be offered? |
You can live under God’s Blessings (Deuteronomy
28:1-14) or you can live under God’s Curses! (Deuteronomy
28:15-68).
A review of these self-imposed curse are given below as a
sampler. |
|
 |
|
How do the clean become unclean? |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
2 Kings 5:1-19 (KJV) Leprosy is
a metaphor of what? Yes...sin! A little Leaven …leavened the
whole loaf.” Like leprosy sin is contagious and counter
multiplies in your soul. |
|
Leprosy disfigure you body with auto
amputations (self-mutilation). Sin consumes you …takes you
out of being in the image of Christ (disfigures you) and
isolates you from the Father. |
|
Quarantine … .isolation for infectious
disease.. Quarantine your self from sinners …Don’t sojourn
with unbelievers! |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
Mark 5:1-20 (KJV) Sin opens
portals for the prince of darkness. Observe Legion, a man
possesses with 5,300 demons. They are on the inside, as they
had to be cast out.
|
|
 |
Living under the Curses
of the law opens doors for to the demonic world. You ask
them into you soul when you are disobedient to God's word
and are servants of another God. |
|
You become double-minded. You cannot
serve two masters. |
|
It is not your outside projection, but
your heart that identifies you true soul. |
|
The Promises of God’s word are
demonstrated by miracles of Jesus:
|
Matthew 8:16-17 (KJV) 16
When the even was come, they brought unto him many that
were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits
with his word, and healed all that were sick: 17 That it
might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the
prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare
our sicknesses.

Miracles and
healings by his disciples: |
Acts 5:12(KJV) 12 And by
the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders
wrought among the people;
|
|
Promises from the
Scripture for you to do the miracles, healing and casting
out of evil spirits. |
Luke 10:19-20 (KJV) 19
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and
scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and
nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Notwithstanding
in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto
you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written
in heaven.
Mark 16:15-18 (KJV) 15 And he said unto them, Go
ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name
shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they
drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they
shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
|
Bind the evil spirits in the Name of
Jesus…Cast them out in the Name of Jesus…release your self
from their works in the Name of Jesus …forbid to
return in the Name of Jesus.
Then fill void (passive mind ) with God’s Word and Holy
spirit. |
|
Get clean and
stay clean. |
|
The R’s to keep clean:
Recognize sin (confess)
/remorse/
repentance/renounce/release/
reconciliation /resist/restore
someone else. Use your insight to help someone
else within the Body of Christ |
|
Be
a clean vessel to be used by the Lord |

Topic:
“Tetelestai” …. “It is finished” all
was completed by Christ’s death. The whole of the Bible
points to His nail prints. Redemption is for all that
believe in Yeshua Jesus’ atoning sacrifice, that we might
have eternal life. Jesus is the Passover “Lamb of God who
taketh away the sins of the world, our Savior and Redeemer,
our Intercessor and High Priest who bring our offering and
fragrant prayers to the Father. |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Leviticus Introduction :
Discussion of restrictions on the High Priest to enter the
Most Holy Place, in God’s presence, after sin of Aaron's
sons. Mishpatim are given on how Aaron is to come into the
Most Holy Place, his attire, the offerings he is to bring,
and the protocol for the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). |
Leviticus 16:1-2 (KJV) It takes
special preparation for mortal man to go before a most Holy
God.
The High Priest is to prepare himself to meet God for seven
days before Yom Kippur. During that time, he lived apart
from his wife and family in a special place in the Temple.
The elders would read and expound to him the ordinances of
the sacred day’s protocol. The night prior to the sacred
day, he would be kept awake reading from Job, Ezra,
Chronicles and Daniel. On Yom Kippur, he would not wear the
priestly robes, but would officiate and enter the Most Holy
Place in simple garments of white linen –emblems of
lowliness and purity. Yom Kippur is the most solemn day of
the Lord on the Jewish calendar. |
The High Priest
offered sacrifices for himself and the congregation. The
aroma of sacrifices gives a pleasing unto the Lord.
|
 |
|
He enters the Most Holy Place in the
white linen of righteousness and makes temporary atonement
for himself and the people, by the blood of bullocks, sheep
and goats. Two goats are chosen: one for the Lord, as a sin
offering and the other is the Azazel (scapegoat) to carry
the sins of the people of Israel into the wilderness, where
it meets a sudden death. |
Leviticus 16:29-34 (KJV) A set
aside High Holy day… A Sabbath … prophetic of what? It is
prophetic of Christ 2nt coming with the armies of
the saints in white linen. He comes to rule and reign when
he shall appear at a future Yom Kippur, ridding on a white
horse in battle armor with His Bride .
The sacrifices are a pleasing aroma to the Almighty God.

Introduction to Ezekiel : |
Ezekiel 22:1-5(KJV) Judge
the city and people of Israel for their abominations and
idol worship. They are guilty.
|
Ezekiel 22:6-15 (KJV) Israel is
living in sin as an apostate people. Sin is within the camp
of the city of Jerusalem. Sin is in the sheep fold.
|
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Romans 9:30-10:13 (KJV) We have
a High Priest today. His truth is in the Holy Scriptures
which gives the key to everlasting life. |
Hebrews 9:11-12 (KJV) 11 But
Christ being come an high priest of good things to come,
by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with
hands, that is to say, not of this building; 12 Neither
by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood
he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained
eternal redemption for us.
|
John 8:31-32 (KJV) 31 Then
said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye
continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make
you free.
|
|
 |
A fragrant
aroma to the Lord comes from ourselves as a “living
sacrifices” our prayers; our worship. Be a fragrant savor to
the Lord, not a stench of death. |
 |
|
2 Corinthians 2:14-17 (KJV) What
is the savor of Christ? “For we are unto God a sweet savor
of Christ in them that are saved”..v. 15. |
|
The believer is to be in the image of
Christ walking in the Fruit of the Spirit by living in love
and forgiveness, insured to have eternal life. The unsaved
are a savor of death…eternal death in the Lake of Fire. |
|
... Be Holy
as I Am Holy.
...Be a clean
vessel to be used by the Lord. |

Topic:
The Almighty Father has a plan which is
revealed for the unbelievers, as we, all were at one time.
His Plan is to restore man to His Kingdom of eternal life
through the Light of life, Yeshua Jesus. Exodus 24:4
Moses then wrote down everything the Lord had said. Yes,
this Kingdom plan is in the Books of Moses (Torah) and today
is in the Holy Scriptures for our enlightenment. That light
of life is symbolically represented as the center candle or
servant candle (Shamash) on the Menorah. |

Lessons: |

TORAH |
|
Introduction: Exodus 37:17 (KJV)
The making of the menorah. Gold represents deity. It is
beaten gold! Symbolic of Who? |
|
Leviticus 24:1-4 (KJV) What is
the Oil for the he menorah? It is the Comforter (the Holy
Spirit) inside you! Let us now examine the prophetic nature
of the menorah structure and its symbolism. |
The Feasts of the Lord
The attributes of the Holy Spirit
|
 |
The Sabbath ….The Sabbath was made for man not man for
Sabbath Jesus is the Creator…and the creation message is
in the Sabbath.
|
 |
Colossians 1:16-19 (KJV) 16
For by him (Jesus) were all things created, that are in
heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible,
whether they be thrones, or dominions, or
principalities, or powers: all things were created by
him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by
him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the
body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead; that in all things he might have the
preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father that in him
should all fulness dwell;
John 1:3 (KJV) 3 All things were made by him; and
without him was not any thing made that was made.
Book of Enoch 39:11 Before him (The Just One)
there is no ceasing; he knows, before the world was
created, what the world is , and will be from generation
to generation.

The Father is the Architect, the
designer ..Jesus, the Craftsman, the carpenter ..the Holy
Spirit is the power/might of the creation. .. They are
echad…The Oneness of the trinity/Godhead |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Who is Jesus and what is His Gospel
message? He is a “root” out of dry ground, who grows to do
the Fathers’ work (Isaiah 53:2). |
|
John 8:12-18 (KJV) Jesus is the
Light of the World …. The servant (Messiah Ben Joseph) ..
the servant candle (shamash candle). He gives light and life
to all that will accept him. He was sent of the Father that
we might also be light unto a dark world. |
|
Mark 2:23-28 (KJV) Jesus is the
Lord of the Sabbath. The Sabbath is for man’s rest not for
man’s pleasure. The Sabbath is holy and honorable unto the
Lord. Isaiah58:13-14 (KJV) |
|
Luke 4:1-16 (KJV) Jesus is human just
as we are. The temptation of Yeshua Jesus…. 40 days of
trials…He was tempted just as we are. It is the Holy Spirit
that leads you to prevail in all spiritual matters to
righteousness. Be a Bride in white linen and receive the
Kingdom reward. |
|
The Good News Gospel: Matthew 5:38-
42 (KJV). What is His Gospel message? Jesus teaches a
gospel of “love God and love your neighbor.” Live in
humility, compassion and empathy for your neighbor. |
|
|
|
HAFTORAH |
|
The millennial reign of Christ:
Ezekiel 44:15-19 (KJV) |
|
Yeshua Jesus will rebuild the Millennial Temple in
Jerusalem. He will return to the Temple in Glory through the
East Gate (Ezekiel 44:1-4) and He will rule planet
Earth with an iron rod (Torah) as Lord of lords and King of
kings. He will be both King and High Priest. The Levitical
priesthood of Zadok will officiate under His authority. |

“Make an accounting”
|
|
Parasha Readings:
Numbers 4:21-7:89; Judges
13:2-25; Acts 18:18; 21:17-22:29; John 7:53-8:11. |
|
Topic:
“Make an accounting” by separating
yourself unto the Lord. |
|
Separation (Sanctification) to God by a
Nazarite Vow or by “born-again” confession. |
|
Redemptive-wholeness comes with
accountability, demonstrated by your Halakah. |
|
Tikkun Leil
Sha’vuot |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Numbers 6:1-8 (KJV) A Nazarite
vow can be taken by either a man or woman. |
|
Examples: |
- Samson
- Paul
- Jephthah’s daughter (Judges
11:34-40)
- Anna ( Luke 2:36-38)
|
|
The Tanach Nazarite vow is a shadow of
what? …Our “born-again” confession of Faith ….A way we can
separate ourselves to the Father through Yeshua Jesus. By
our “Nazarite vow,” we are baptized into the Body of
Christ….a kahol of Believers. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Judges 13:1-25 (KJV) Samson
commissioned as a Nazarite by “Angel of Lord” to be a
deliverer of Israel and a Judge. What was Samson’s Idol? You
know rest of story….…. |
|
Accountability is required even those
under Nazarite vow (Samson/you). |
|
As in Samson’s case, Abba is
longsuffering for us ..... WAITING FOR US to give up our
iniquities and our idols. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Acts 18:18 (KJV) What is Paul’s
vow? He cut his hair. Paul is to take a Nazarite vow. |
|
Acts 21:23-28 (KJV) Paul
reaffirms his vow with 4 other Jews. Paul is arrested for
inciting a riot. |
|
Acts 22:6-21 (KJV) Paul’s
conversion Testimony…. His commission. What were Paul’s
idols before his conversion? He had religion not a personal
relationship with Christ! |
|
John 7:37-39 (KJV) Christ
declared “I AM the way, the truth and the life” …..” “And no
man comes to the Father except thru ME.” |
Are we a Nazarite? Yes, committed unto
the Father by Christ is in us and sealed by the Holy Spirit.
We are separated unto God as if by a Nazarite vow as a
special sanctified people. A people to remain accountable.
Know God’s Word and Torah will be on your heart. We are to
be Holy Spirit led not carnally led. We must live by the
Spirit not by the flesh.
|
|
I COME…Are
you ready ?Abba Father
desires that none should perish (Matthew 18:12-14 (KJV);
2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)
|
 |
Reflect God’s Glory as Moses. Shema …Love God as do the
Torah-observant Jews. They were God intoxicated!... |
 |
|
Your eyes should be opened! Naso, ….
Accountability…
|
|
Should not we also be God intoxicated! |
 |
|
Psalm 30 (KJV) Radiate
ABBA’s glory in our eyes and countenance or go down to the
pit. |

TORAH |
|
Leviticus 25:1-7 (KJV)…Leviticus
25:1 (KJV) And the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai,
saying,… "Debar". Debar is SH# 1697 meaning WORD… The Word
of God (Yeshua Jesus)) was spoken on mount Sinai. |
John 1:1 (KJV) In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God
|
|
Leviticus 25:4 Every 7th
year is a sabbatical year and a sabbatical rest for the land
and Abba’s people. During this rest Abba provides...Example
of Abba's loving hand on the Israelites: |
Exodus 16:12 I have heard
the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto
them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the
morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know
that I am the LORD your God.
|
|
Revelation 20 ….and in that 7th
year...there will follow the millennial reign of Christ.
Satan is bound for a mellinium,1000 years, and the righteous
will reign with Christ as a new beginning. |
|
What is the 7th letter of Hebrew
aleph-bet?.... Zayin .... meaning rest, Sabbath, focal
point… |
|
Leviticus 25:8-25 (KJV)
Leviticus 25:8-9 The 7th sabbatical year = 49
years .. i.e. 7 years x 7 years plus one year = Jubilee year
(50 years) |
- Jesus was crucified in the
middle (at 3 ½ years) into the 209th Sabbatical year
since Joshua went into the Promise Land.”
- Today 2008-2008 we are in
the 492nd Sabbatical year.

God also uses 50 in the counting of the
Omer … a “week of weeks” plus one day. This is during the

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Philemon 1:1-25 (KJV) Onesimus
is a run-away slave, who finds Paul and receives salvation
by accepting Yeshua Jesus as His Lord. The Jubilee is an
example of release from slavery to the freedom as a believer
in Christ. Onesimus returns not as a slave but servant and
brother in Christ. How do you treat a brother in Christ? …
with love. Does not the same Spirit of Abba dwell within Him
as in Epaphras, a fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus. …The
liberty of Salvation |
|
Luke 4:16-21 (KJV) We have life
through Yeshua Jesus. Christ was chosen before the
foundations to be the anointed suffering servant that would
take away the sins of the world. All that believe in Him
have light and life. Liberation in Christ |
|
1 Corinthians 7:21-24 (KJV) We
are called as believers to be servants of Christ. A servant
is the Lords freeman, as you live under the law of liberty
of life ….a free gift not bondage of death. He paid your sin
price … you can’t.. We were bought with a price..
Tetelestai. |
|
Were not all of us “slaves to sin” at
one time in bondage with the forces of unrighteousness and
darkness? We are bought with a price and paid for by the
Blood of Christ. No One else except Christ could have
released us from sin and death. Now, by our free-will, we
are bondservants to Christ. A victor over Satan/death/sin.
He released the captives held in bondage. We are now His
prisoners whom He loves. We are that runaway slave,
Onesimus! Stay clean in white linen … Repent and be
reconciled |
|
Galatians 6:7-10 (KJV) You shall
reap what you sow! The worldly struggle is flesh vs. Spirit.
Reap liberty in the Spirit and bondage in the flesh. Be
liberated from your flesh man. Do not become weary of doing
God’s work. “Faint not” …. be a cheerful servant for then
you shall accrue treasures in heaven. |
|
Be that good
and faithful servant. |

“Make an accounting” by separating
yourself unto the Lord. |
|
Separation (Sanctification) to God by a
Nazarite Vow or by “born-again” confession. |
|
Redemptive-wholeness comes with
accountability, demonstrated by your Halakah. |
|
Tikkun Leil
Sha’vuot |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Numbers 6:1-8 (KJV) A Nazarite
vow can be taken by either a man or woman. |
|
Examples: |
- Samson
- Paul
- Jephthah’s daughter (Judges
11:34-40)
- Anna ( Luke 2:36-38)
|
|
The Tanach Nazarite vow is a shadow of
what? …Our “born-again” confession of Faith ….A way we can
separate ourselves to the Father through Yeshua Jesus. By
our “Nazarite vow,” we are baptized into the Body of
Christ….a kahol of Believers. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Judges 13:1-25 (KJV) Samson
commissioned as a Nazarite by “Angel of Lord” to be a
deliverer of Israel and a Judge. What was Samson’s Idol? You
know rest of story….…. |
|
Accountability is required even those
under Nazarite vow (Samson/you). |
|
As in Samson’s case, Abba is
longsuffering for us ..... WAITING FOR US to give up our
iniquities and our idols. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Acts 18:18 (KJV) What is Paul’s
vow? He cut his hair. Paul is to take a Nazarite vow. |
|
Acts 21:23-28 (KJV) Paul
reaffirms his vow with 4 other Jews. Paul is arrested for
inciting a riot. |
|
Acts 22:6-21 (KJV) Paul’s
conversion Testimony…. His commission. What were Paul’s
idols before his conversion? He had religion not a personal
relationship with Christ! |
|
John 7:37-39 (KJV) Christ
declared “I AM the way, the truth and the life” …..” “And no
man comes to the Father except thru ME.” |
Are we a Nazarite? Yes, committed unto
the Father by Christ is in us and sealed by the Holy Spirit.
We are separated unto God as if by a Nazarite vow as a
special sanctified people. A people to remain accountable.
Know God’s Word and Torah will be on your heart. We are to
be Holy Spirit led not carnally led. We must live by the
Spirit not by the flesh.
|
|
I COME…Are
you ready ?Abba Father
desires that none should perish (Matthew 18:12-14 (KJV);
2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)
|
|
Reflect God’s Glory as Moses. Shema …Love God as do the
Torah-observant Jews. They were God intoxicated!... |
|
|
Your eyes should be opened! Naso, ….
Accountability…
|
|
Should not we also be God intoxicated! |
|
|
Psalm 30 (KJV) Radiate
ABBA’s glory in our eyes and countenance or go down to the
pit. |

|
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Zechariah 4:1- 14 (KJV) What is
this lamp stand? ...A Menorah or Chanakiah. Note the
oil to feed lamps (Holy Spirit). Lamps point to those who
are redeemed in Christ. |
|
 |
|
What/Who are the olive trees? |
- Olive trees= 2 witnesses?
- Native olive tree (Jews) &
wild olive tree (Gentiles)
- Olive trees= Judah &
Ephraim = redeemed House of Jacob (Jer. 11:16-17).
- Are they the Holy
Scriptures (Tanach & Brit Chadasha)?
- Are they God's two covenant
people "chosen" as a special people?
|
|
Who are the grafted branches today?
They are the House of God…His Body! Be Holy as He is Holy or
be plucked from the olive tree. …. |
|
Where does the Word, the Holy
Scriptures, take you? What does the Law of Moses (Torah) and
Prophets point to? ….The Water and the Blood! ….Abba’s
Celestial Kingdom….our home ..the House of God. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Hebrews 3:1- 13 (KJV) We are the
House of God kept in order by the Holy Spirit. You are the
collective Body of Christ …edify one another with your
gifts…exhort each other. Harden not your heart… don’t evoke
God’s wrath. |
|
Love is the Kingdom glue.
Shema …Hear Love God & love the brethren. Be well-pleasing
in Abba’s sight. What are the bricks?...the mortar? The
capstone? |
 |
|
Hebrews 13:20-21 (KJV) Now the
God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord
Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the
blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in
every good work to do his will, working in you that which is
well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be
glory for ever and ever. Amen. |
|
John 19:31-37 (KJV) The Water &
the Blood …???? Does it relate to our purification? |
|
The metaphors of the water: The
flood waters of Noah cleansed the earth ; To the water of
cleansing from the brass laver; to the Mikvah ; to the Water
of the Red Heifer (Numbers 19:2-9**); to the “living water”
that Christ offered to the woman at the well; to the Living
water within us. |
- The water…. Today, while it is
today, receive “Living Water.” Believe & be baptized of
water & of the Spirit.
- The Blood …. Life is in Blood
(Lev. 17:11). No forgiveness of sin without Shedding
Blood (Heb. 9:22). You shall have no part of Me (John
6:52- 58).NT Covenant Matthew 26:27- 29 (KJV)
|
|
The Water
and Blood 1 John
5:1-8 (KJV) |
|
Who is the water & Blood? |
1 John 5:6 (KJV)
6 This is he (Jesus) that came by water and blood,
even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and
blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness,
because the Spirit is truth.
As “living water” the Spirit, is the Agent of God, who
bears witness of Jesus.
|
1 John 5:7-8 (KJV)
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven,
the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these
three are one.8 And there are three that bear witness
in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood:
and these three agree in one
|
|
Is the
trinity a foundational belief in Christianity? |
1 John 5:7-8 (NIV)
7 For there are three that testify: 8 the Spirit,
the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.

|
Yeshua Jesus’ House
…. The seven churches.
|
 |
Revelation 1:12-16 (KJV)
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And
being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; And in
the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the
Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and
girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head
and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow;
and his eyes were as a flame of fire; 15 And his feet
like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace;
and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in
his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a
sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the
sun shineth in his strength.
|
John 14:15 (KJV) “If ye love me,
keep my commandments.” The Commandments … we understand as
they are Torah. But
what is Love?.. Do we understand LOVE? Love God…Love thine
brother/sister.
Baptism into Body of Christ.. into One Body is by brotherly
love. |
|
1 Corinthians 13:1-7 (KJV) God’s
agape Love .. a sacrificial Love.
1 Corinthians 13 (KJV) …… Paul’s Love Chapter! |
God’s LOVE ….is longsuffering but
kind.
God’s LOVE envies not, brags not nor is prideful.
God’s LOVE does not act unbecoming; it is not
self-seeking nor easily provoked.
God’s LOVE has no evil thoughts or iniquities, but
rejoices in truth.
God’s LOVE bears & endures with belief and hope in all
things.
God’s LOVE will never fail you.
God’s LOVE makes you complete. When you reflect God’s
LOVE, you are not longer a Child but a Son/Daughter of
God.

Shelach L’cha
“Send thou”
|
|
Parasha Readings:
Numbers 13:1- 15:41; Joshua
2:1- 24; Hebrews 3:1- 4:16. |
|
Topic: Two witnesses:
Joshua/Caleb; Joshua's 2 spies; Ephraim/ Judah as a
foreshadow of Christianity and the Messianic age; Send you
as Ambassadors in teams as a Shelach … “sent ones”
|
|
Being sent to the “Promise Land,” a new
beginning, God’s Rest for a weary new nation. … |
|
Is this
shadows of something future for us….??? |
 |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Numbers 13:1-3, 6 & 8 (KJV) Who
is Caleb? |
Numbers 32:12 (KJV) Save
Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the
son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.
|
|
Why is a Kenezite representing the
tribe of Judah. A generational curse was upon the tribe of
Judah unto the 10th generation! |
|
Numbers 13:17-33 (KJV) GIANTS in
the Land!! Who are Joshua & Caleb? (Joshua =Ephraim …
Caleb = Judah). Conquer the Land by the strength of man?
Joshua/Caleb: by the Strength of God. |
|
Who is Israel’s protector? |
 |
|
Beside Idolatry what other fault
repeatedly occurs in the Israelites…unbelief and lack of
Faith… despite being eyewitness of the Red Sea Crossing.
|
Remember the story of the
Giant-killer?
Whose wings was he under? Who came from the loins of King
David as the "giant-killer" of Armageddon?
|
 |
|
Where is our power??? In the name of
Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha’Masiach, our Savior, our Redeemer ,
our Lord, and our Master, by Him we shall conquer all
giants. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Fast-forward…..
40 years later |
|
Joshua 2:1-24 (KJV) Why 2
scouts? Who is Rahab? She is a type of what? She is a type
of the Church. A Gentile bride like Ruth. Also a type of
those Gentiles helping their Jewish brothers such as Ann
Frank, Cory Trendboom, and the tribulation Israelites.
|
|
What was Rahab’s message? Even a harlot
can find grace and mercy in Abba’s eyes and become God’s
people. Rahab was King David’s great-great-great
grandmother. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Hebrews 3:15- 4:13 (KJV) Exhort
& edify one another daily! Harden not your heart….for
TODAY.. Now … is the time to accept Yeshua Jesus as
your personal Lord & Savior. Hold steadfast! Perseverance.
Keep the Faith and live not in unbelief. |
|
What is the Rest? God’s Menookhah (מנוּחה).
God did rest from His works. |
Genesis 2:3 (KJV) And God
blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that
in it he had rested from all his work which God created
and made.
|
|
The Sabbath was made for man to rest
and have holy convocation. The Sabbath is a rehearsal for us
to enter the Promise Land. |
|
The Sabbath
recharges you for another week….. A portrayal of Abba's REST
(A Hebrew Idiom: “To sit under the fig tree”…. We rehearse
it as the weekly Sabbath ….. |
 |
|
Get to know Abba's REST…..….A land of
milk and honey….The Olam Haba (eternity with Abba). |

Numbers 16:1- 18:32; 1
Samuel 11:14- 12:22; 2 Timothy 2:8-4:5; 2 John 1-13; Jude
1-25.
|
|
Topic:
The Authority of God’s Anointed Ones is
challenged! Strife & discontentment is within the camp. |
|
In these end time days, congregations
wrestle against spiritual wickedness and an overwhelming
Spirit of Slumber; Deaf and Dumb Spirit; Spirit of Korah;
Spirit of Rebellion; Spirit of Religion; and witchcraft.
|
Don't fall into the Hands of the Living
God!
Don't take your eyes off Christ. |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
Rebellion against Moses and Aaron!
Rebellion against the Anointed of the Lord!
Numbers 16:1- 5 (KJV) Strife, grumblings,
covetousness against their brother amongst the Sons of Levi.
Lack of submission to authority of God’s Agents (His Shelach).
Self-indulgence & loss of focus on The Lord and their
personal relationship with Him. Don't fall into the Hands of
the Living God. |
Numbers 16:26-35 (KJV) Abba
filters, shifts and sifts His people. If it is not of the
Lord, it will not survive but righteousness shall prevail
for those who love the Lord. God demands accountability.
The rebellion continues…. (v. 41-50) ….Death by plague
14,700 Israelites. |
|
 |
 |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
The People rebel against Samuel (GOD)1
Samuel 12:7-15 (KJV) We want a King like other nations…A
ruler over us! (1 Samuel 8:5) |
1 Samuel 8:7 (KJV) And the
LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the
people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not
rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I
should not reign over them.
|
|
They desired worldly rule not Divine
rule! Many of us desire religion rather than a personal relationship
with Abba Father thru Jesus. The Spirit of religion is
rebellious to Brotherly Love. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Bewitched
Church of Laodicea. 2 Timothy 2:24-3:-9 (KJV)
Accept in humility and with honor that you are a servant of
the LORD. A time will come of unsound doctrine...deaf and
dumb spirit! Today’s Laodicea is one of self-importance,
pride, heightened self-esteem, self godliness. …Traitors of
God with a corrupt /reprobate mind! Lacking knowledge of the
Truth (God’s Word for righteous living and servitude for
God). A church with famine of the Word of God. |
Hosea 4:6 (KJV) My people
are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast
rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou
shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the
law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
|
|
Jude 1:1-16 (KJV) God’s wrath on
rebellious angels. Satan is a rebellious being who was
created by Jesus. Satan and his angels were cast out of
Heaven. Satan hates humans who are in the image of
Jesus. End time spiritual failure and lack of knowledge of
God’s word is Korah’s Pit……Today’s bewitched Laodicea.
….Spirit of Rebellion! Rebellion is as witchcraft! |
|
1 Samuel 15:23 (KJV) For
rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness
is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected
the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from
being king.
|
 |
Guard you mouth…words kill and curse others. Don’t come
against the Lord’s anointed.
1 Chronicles 16:22 (KJV) Saying, Touch not mine
anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
|
|
Learn from Korah’s rebellion…bring not
strife into the Body of Christ instead edify, comfort and
exhort one another. |
|
The Doctrine
of Christ. Jesus is Son of God /Son of Man.
Yeshua Jesus is All God and all man. 2 John 1:4-13 (KJV) The
Pre-incarnate Christ….A Spirit? …Theophanies/Christophanies?
…Creator of all things and holds them together. Became man
born of virgin woman. |
|
The Doctrine of Christ: 2 John 1:7 "For
many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver
and an antichrist." |
Today, Jesus exists as man at the right
Hand of God (our image)
2 John 1:8-10 (KJV) Look to yourselves, that we lose
not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive
a full reward. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in
the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the
doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If
there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine,
receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
|
|
“… this is love, that we walk after his
commandments” The Doctrine of Christ underlies the doctrine
of unbounded and unconditional agape love. |
John 3:16 (KJV) For God
so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but
have everlasting life.
John 15:13 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than
this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
|
|
The Doctrine of Christ underlies the
doctrine of unbounded and unconditional agape love. |
|
Be part of God’s Army…link your shields of faith with hooks
of LOVE. |
 |
|
Freedom from bondage (consuming Spirit
of Slumber; Deaf and Dumb Spirit; Spirit of Karah; Spirit of
Rebellion; Spirit of Religion; and witchcraft) is Freedom in
Christ …the law of Liberty. Stay focused…Don't partake of
the religion of legalism as a part of you Judeo-Christian
walk. |
|
Move to be Christ- centered….. Exhort,
edify and comfort one another daily! Harden not your
heart.….for TODAY choose who you will serve!. |

Rock
at Horeb! Who is the Rock at Horeb?
It is a shadow of the Living waters of salvation to be
poured-out on the Church |
 |
|
Malachi 4:4-5 (KJV) Remember ye
the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in
Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming
of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Numbers 29:1-13 (KJV) The people
“chide” Moses. Moses loses his “cool!” Moses offends God.
Jesus commands us to love one another…even the rebel. |
Luke 6:28 (KJV) Bless them
that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use
you.
|
|
Pray that no one smite the Rock.
…Living the Torah. Prophetically, Yeshua Jesus was smitten
only once. Son of Man/Son of God…Doctrine of Christ. He is
both Messiah Ben Joseph/ Messiah Ben David. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Judges 11:8-24 (KJV) The Lord
can use anyone to promote His Kingdom , even the “son of a
strange woman.” When He calls, can you stand against all
odds? Do you stand Christ-centered or religion-centered?
|
|
Examine your foundation. Solid ground
or “pit of Korah” Stand with the Armor of God: “So
whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us,
them will we possess.” (Judges 11:24 ). |
|
Ephesians 6:10-19 (KJV)
…stand. |
 |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
John 3:1-8 (KJV) What does born
of flesh mean? What does born of the Spirit mean? What is
unique about the Holy Spirit? 1. Agent of the Father & the
Son within your Temple. 2. Is everywhere amongst sinful man
…cannot be confined. 3. Fills the New Believer with his
attributes (Isaiah 11:20), gifts and callings (your
anointing) to edify the Body of Christ. 4. Seals you as a
Child of God, a Son/Daughter/Heir..
|
|
 |
|
Let’s examine the meaning of “to grieve
or blasphemy the Holy Spirit.” |
Matthew 12:31 Wherefore I
say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be
forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy
Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby
ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Matthew. 12:32. And whosoever speaketh a word
against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but
whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not
be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the
world to come.
|
|
Grieve not the power of the Holy Spirit
by deny the manifestations of Baptism of the Holy Spirit to
edify the Body. Matthew. 12:33 33 Either make the
tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree
corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his
fruit. |
|
John 4:9-15 (KJV) Do you
understand “living water?” The Holy Spirit is not an
abstract power likened unto “electricity.” He is the “Living
God” of the burning bush in Agency….having all power and
authority of the Father and Son. |
John 4:23-24 (KJV) But the hour
cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship
the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh
such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship
him must worship him in spirit and in truth.Eph 6:18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the
Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and
supplication for all saints;
|
|
Do you understand Agency? |
Jesus' Agency:
John 12:49-50 (KJV) For I have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what
I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his
commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak
therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
Your Agency: John 12:26
(KJV) If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where
I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me,
him will my Father honour. John 14:12 (KJV) Verily, verily,
I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do
shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do;
because I go unto my Father. |
Do you understand the uniqueness of
the person of the Holy Spirit ?…..His Omnipresent role
in the Body of Christ. Grieve not/nor Blasphemy the Holy
Spirit nor his works that edify the Body of Christ.
He is the Lord’s Agent who gives attributes, gifts,
callings, and seals you for everlasting life…. He is the
Comforter inside your Temple to keep you in Jesus Christ’s
Image by your manifest Fruits of the Spirit. |
|
Many in the Church believe that the
manifest power of the Holy spirit was only for the Apostles.
They criticize any Holy Spirit movement amongst the Body of
Christ...denying tongues, prophecy and gifts. The soul
shaking power of thew Holy Spirit is as real today as in the
Hebrew Scriptures and Acts Church of Jesus Christ. |
Act 2:4 (KJV) And they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other
tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Act 2:15-21 (KJV) For these are not drunken, as ye
suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. But
this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it
shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour
out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see
visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: (18) And on my
servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days
of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
Tanach Holy Spirit manifestations:
Numbers 11:24-25 (KJV); 1 Samuel 10:9-13 |
God is preparing an end time army. The
HOLY SPIRIT is arming it with his attributes, gifts and
callings…
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto
all good works (2Ti 3:17)

 |
|
You cannot serve two gods
(Double-minded ). |
 |
|
..The angel of the Lord did not take
Balaam’s life! Then why did the Israelites take Balaam's
life? |
Numbers. 31:8c (KJV)…Balaam
also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
Joshua 13:22 (KJV) Balaam also the son of Beor,
the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the
sword among them that were slain by them.
Numbers 31:15-16 (KJV) And Moses said unto them,
Have ye saved all the women alive? Behold, these caused
the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam,
to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of
Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of
the LORD.
|
|
Balaam …means: 1. the destruction of
the people; 2. swallowing up of the people; 3. the disturber
of the People; 4. a swallowing /devouring/ destruction; .
“Bal” means “nothing or a failure;” “am” …means “not of the
people, a foreigner.” 6 A foreigner devouring the people of
the Lord 7. Balaam was double-minded |
|
Are you double-minded?
James 1:8 (KJV) A double
minded man is unstable in all his ways.
What is the foundation of your
house?
|
 |
|
…. Christ-centered or
religion? |
|
Examine
your relationship with Christ…. |
- Do you enjoy fellowship with
God (Elohim)?
- Or are you sensitive to sin?
- Do you obey the Word of God?
- Do you reject this evil world?
- Do you eagerly await
Christ’s return?
- Do you see a decreased pattern
of sin in your life?
- Do you love the body of Christ
(Christian brother’s and sister’s)?
- Do you experience answered
prayer?
- Do you discern between truth
and error?
- Are you refused or rejected for
your faith?

Numbers 25:1-9 (KJV) Those
sneaky Moabite women! What was their purpose? Contamination
of the “seed’ of God’s chosen people by a physical
disruption of the Jewish genealogy with pagan “seed” and a
spiritual disruption of the Jewish worship with pagan
“seeds” of idolatry. |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
Micah 5:7-15 (KJV) Abba concern
for His remnant amongst the Pagans. He warns about physical
and spiritual contamination of the “seed” of the remnant.

But the seed of Christ's Church
will prevail as dew amongst all peoples of the world, just
as the star of David will prevail amongst the celestial
bodies. |

|
2 Peter 2:1-22 (KJV) Peter’s
dialog on physical and spiritual inbreeding! The
interruption in the Hebrew/Jewish “seed of the woman” (an
altered genome). Examples are the fallen angels at time Noah
(V. 4-5) and by Balak/Balaam (V. 15)…Moabites seed being
sown amongst the Israelites.. Spiritual Failure sowed
amongst God’s people to bring down the righteous man that
dwells amongst them. False Prophets, false teachers---
Wolves in sheep clothes. Sodom/ Gomorrah. Ungodly
living/lusts of the flesh. |
|
The reward
of the unrighteous is a fiery
judgment. |
 |
|
Matthew 7:15-23 (KJV) “Beware of
false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but
inwardly they are ravening wolves . 16 Ye shall know them by
their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles ? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good
fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit . 18 A
good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a
corrupt tree bring forth good fruit . 19 Every tree that
bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into
the fire . 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them .
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter
into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my
Father which is in heaven . 22 Many will say to me in that
day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name ? and in
thy name have cast out devils ? and in thy name done many
wonderful works ? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I
never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity .” |

Revelation 2:14-15 (KJV) Church
at Pergamum: Constantine's Church in Church
History---Bringing pagan idolatry into the new Church body.
The city where Satan lives. |
|
Who are the Nicolaitans? The
Nicolaitanes, that Jesus hates, have been the “tares”
amongst the Church that have given rise to ecumenical
religion. Nicolas was a proselyte Gentile Greek deacon (Acts
6:5). He established a sect of Christianity based on a
priestly order, leading to ecumenical harmony. A sect that
lead lives of unrestrained indulgence…. condoning
promiscuity and idolatry. |
- Nicolas means a conqueror of
the people.
- Nicolaitanes means a destroyer
of the people.
- Ecumenical harmony has and is
destroying the church.

Balaamites….corruptor of God’s
People ...Disrupt physical and spiritual “seed” of Israel
Nicolaitanes ….. corruptor of God’s People ...Disrupt
physical and spiritual “seed” of the Church |

TORAH |
|
Numbers 25:1- 18 (KJV) We must
all be a Phinehas … for as Christ’s Royal Priesthood, we
need to remove the leaven out from amongst us. Sin within
the camp brings God’s wrath….ie. His Judgment on a world,
nation, city, a family, peoples, or person (Noah, Israel,
Sodom/ Gomorrah, Korah’s family, the 10 spies, Achan. |
|
Remove what is unclean from amongst you
and see the rewards of Abba... “Pride, lust, fornication &
itchy ears bring sin into the camp. Recall when just the sin
of one Israelite brought God’s Wrath upon the nation. (Achan’s
sin Joshua. 7:1-26 ) |
|
Be assured that God’s people….a remnant
will be saved. ..keep oil in your lamp. |
|
Abba, our Father, is longsuffering ….
His Just Judgment can be swift. It is a dreadful thing to
fall into the Hands of the Living God! |
|
|
|
Haftorah |
|
When there are breaches in the
foundation of Torah, Abba calls out His Prophets. |
|
Jeremiah 1:1-9 (KJV) America
like Israel (England) is “the apple of the Lord’s eye.”
America faces a moral crisis…becoming a “lawless people.”
Sin in the camp! Your end shall come when you are filled
with false teachers, preachers, prophets and antichrists
preaching another Gospel. Our hope is the next
generation: the Youth of America! |

Those that bless Israel will be blessed
… and those that curse Israel will be cursed. |

Nebuchadnezzar by rivers; Rome …ships of Chittim;
England … ships of Tarshish (Isa. 23:1-18) “Howl, ye
ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste. (Isa.

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT

Betrayal of Jesus
|
|
Matthew 26:20- 25(KJV) The
betrayal of Jesus by one of His disciple close to him.
Apostate times are coming for the Church as leaven exists in
unexpected places amongst the believers. Woe to that man
that drives the Son of God from his Temple. Satan can enter
through a leavened portal (John 13:2, 26-27) |
John 2:13- 22 (KJV) Jesus
cleanses the Temple that had become unclean with worldly
contamination.
What Temple did rise up on the 3rd day? ....Yeshua Jesus
....And you also are the Temple of God! What is the
spiritual condition of your Temple today? Are you zealous
and on fire for the Lord? Clean your temple? |
|
Colossians 3:1- 17 (KJV) Purge
ungodliness ..be holy as Abba’s chosen people. Purge your
walk (Halakhah) of worldly lusts of the flesh. Be Holy as
Abba is Holy. You cannot live in defiance to God and to His
Instructions, and expect to receive the Kingdom promises.
|
Examine your FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT
Colossians 3:17 (KJV) And whatsoever ye do in word or
deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to
God and the Father by him. Approach the Father as a worthy
servant of the LORD. |
|
Paul deals with fornication in the
Church at Corinth. |
|
1 Corinthians 5:5- 8 (KJV) Can
you tolerate even a little leaven? Don’t give Satan “legal
ground.” Sin of Achan (Joshua 7:1-26) No one in the
Camp not even Joshua nor the Priests knew of Achan taking
loot (Babylonian garment, silver, gold). But Who
knew?...Almighty God...and who else knew? Yes, Satan’s
“legal ground”….an open portal! |
|
Ecclesiastes 10:8 (KJV)
He that diggeth a
pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a
serpent shall bite him.
|
 |
|
Yes, God knows your sin ….but also
remember that Satan knows. You are responsible to cleanse
your own life. Be assured of your salvation by a personal
relationship with the LORD. |
|
2 Corinthianes 7:1 (KJV) Having
therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse
ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit,
perfecting holiness in the fear of God. |
|
Like Achan it is a fearful thing to
fall into the hands of the living God. Began a cleansing
process: Your own Temple, Family, Locality (neighborhood),
Congregation, City and beyond to the nations. …… Keep
yourself clean, have no leaven in your for you are the
Temple of God and are in the image of Christ. … by Your
FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT You will
be known. Don’t crossover into pagan territory….be
sanctified . |
1 Corinthians 5:6 (KJV) 6
Your glorying (boasting) is not good. Know ye not that a
little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out
therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as
ye are unleavened.
|
|
Remember Phineas: Began End
day Preparations ......Keep sin and fornication out of the
camp (Church). |

Numbers 33:48-56 (KJV) God gives
instructions (covenant, memorandum) to the Israelites before
entering into the land.… if you destroy…..then an
inheritance….But !!!! … If not ....then you shall receive
their judgments! |
|
Instructions for their fruitfulness
(their physical and spiritual preservation). What does good
have in common with evil. |
3 John 11 (KJV) 11
Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which
is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth
evil hath not seen God.
|
|
What are our instructions today? Don’t
be unequally yoked! |
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (KJV)14
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for
what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what
concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he
that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement
hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple
of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in
them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and
they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from
among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and
touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18
And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons
and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
|
|
Don’t bless them! |
2 John 9-11 (KJV) 9
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine
of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine
of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If
there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine,
receive him not into your house, neither bid him God
speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker
of his evil deeds.

The rest of the story in Jeremiah.
Jeremiah 2:4- 13 (KJV) Can you see that Abba is speaking

Israel! |

Unrepentant House of Jacob: You become
like the God you serve..... Worthless as worthless idols
!!.. Broken cisterns !! Short spiritual Memory…Israelites…
How about Us today! |
|
Israel….. will be led astray into
idolatry despite this warning!…A Spirit of sleep/slumber &
Spirit of religion prevailed aforetime and today. It has
come upon God's people to consume them... Oh .... that a
remnant might be preserved. We have become a generation
contaminated by fleshly & worldly desires / itchy ears for
false teachings and prophets in sheep clothing, like Balaam. |
|
God addresses both houses : You forsook
Me & became broken cisterns. |
Jeremiah 3:4 (KJV) 4 Wilt
thou not from this time cry unto me, My father, thou art
the guide of my youth?

|
Spiritual
Failure ….Those with “itchy ears”… |
2 Peter 2:19-22 (KJV) “
While they (the false teachers/prophets) promise
them (you) liberty, they themselves are the
servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome,
of the same is he brought in bondage. (you become
like the gods you serve…broken cysterns)20 For if
after they (“new born” Christians) have escaped
the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the
Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled
therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them
than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them
not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after
they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment (Torah)
delivered unto them. 22 But it is happened unto them
according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his
own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her
wallowing in the mire.” …….*italics mine

Deuteronomy 1:21-32 (KJV) Abba’s
people were led by a cloud by day and pillar of fire by
night… even a Red Sea crossing…. sustenance
(water/quail/manna) …. shoes that didn’t wear out! Where was
their faith?They lived with God amongst them! |
|
The Gospel of Yeshua Jesus is based
upon unwavering faith in a God that we have not seen. …Don’t
be a doubting Thomas. |
|
The Israelite trials & tribulations
(your Trials and Tribulation) in this world are a testing
ground of your faith. The Almighty God will leave the rebel

|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
John 15:1-12 (KJV) God purges us
(believers) through trials and tribulations. We are clean
through the Word which Yeshua Jesus has spoken unto us. We,
as an Ecclesia, need to wash in the entire Word of God in
order to remain as that remnant God has called us to be. No
one can bear any fruit at all unless they (themselves)
confess Yeshua Jesus as their Lord and Savior. For He is
Gods eternal gift of salvation to all mankind. |
|
Abba is gathering His remnant people to
be set apart (sanctified/ purged) from this wicked world
full of idolatry, fornication, witchcraft, gossip… Do you as
a follower of Christ love Elohim (Godhead)? |
|
Acts 7:37-43 (KJV) Jesus is that
Rock of the Church in the wilderness Who provided “living
water.” He is that prophet about Who Moses spoke. |
|
Don’t desire the riches of Egypt (the
world). Come out from Egypt My People! Don’t rejoice over
the works of your own hands… |
|
|
|
Attribute all your blessings to God…Give Him the Glory |
|
Hebrews 3:7-14 (KJV) As
believers do we want to be considered “that generation” who
always errs in their hearts and do not know His wonderful
ways? Let us consider the way of Yeshua Jesus. Love (agape),
righteousness, humility, thanksgiving, fulfilling the law,
keeping His feasts (Passover, Firstfruits, Feasts of
Trumpets, Tabernacles…), obedience, torah observant… When
Yeshua Jesus comes back in a blink of an eye (rapture), what
will you be caught doing? Living in sin (world) or be found
as Enoch? |
Gensis 6:5 And GOD saw
that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and
that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was
only evil continually.
Genesis 5:24 “And Enoch walked with God: and he
was not; for God took him.”
Isaiah 57:1 The righteous perisheth, and no man
layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away,
none considering that the righteous is taken away from
the evil to come.

Abide in me and
My WORD shall abide in you. ….. Torah on Heart.

Topic:
Besought what? … and I besought” to
enter a good land on the other side of the Jordan. When you
hear (Shema) the WORD of God and accept it (Jesus) your life
changes and you have a new beginning…. you cross over the
Jordan. |
Romans 10: 17 (KJV) So
then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of
God.
|
|
Besought is to earnestly seek! What
have we lost that we seek? We earnestly seek and eagerly
plead for ….TRUTH! TRUTH IS
FOUNDED IN THE WORD of GOD. Today, we see a
famine of Truth. Shortly we shall see a famine of the WORD.
We die in the midst of plenty and know not why. |
|
The Truth of God’s Word leads to your
Personal salvation, being justified by the Blood of
Christ unto eternal life …Be not a light under a basket, but
instead show love and good works toward your brother. ..Let
your light shine! The Truth state of your person is not
found centered in yourself, but in your brotherly love,
empathy, good works, love, kindness, YOUR WALK (Halacha)…… (
Your Fruits of the Holy Spirit). |
|
How do you
wash in God’s WORD? |
|
Dwell in the Scriptures under the wings
of the Most High. Give yourself totally to God. Read
the weekly Parasha. You will hear the still soft voice of
the Holy Spirit, as you reflect on God’s Truth for your
life… Knowing God intimately opens up the Scriptures to your
understanding. His Truth will circumcise your heart. |

James 2:14-17 (KJV) You all know
what Faith is. But examine yourselves ye men and women of

home, your family, your neighborhood… for your Congregation,
your brothers/sisters in the Body of Christ, the global
Church of The Lord Jesus…for unbelievers and for sinners. (Be
Ambassadors of the Gospel). |

Bond yourself in an intimate

Tav is symbolic of Truth and

Parasha Readings:
Deuteronomy 7:12- 11:25;
Isaiah 49:14-51:3; Hebrews12:1- 29; Luke 4:1-13; James
5:7-11. |
Topic: "
"Because" of our sin Abba
Himself provided a way for reconciliation …. "Because"
He loves You-unconditionally with a sacrificial love.
"Because" of His “tough love,” you are refined as pure
molten gold, humbled thru chastisement and being perfected
into the Image of Christ. Trials are to draw you closer to
Abba. Restoration and reconciliation of the creation to the
Father is through Yeshua Jesus. |
|
The eternal Father is
omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, omnibenevolent -but
there are nine things that He cannot do!
|
 |
|
The list of 9 things Abba can’t do by
revelation of Bishop Bonnie (modified). |
Can’t
lie (Titus 1:1-2; Numbers 23:19-20)
Can’t look upon sin
(Habakkuk 1:13)
Cannot change
(Malachi 3:6)
Cannot have His word return
void (Isaiah 55:10-11)
Cannot despise anyone.. He
hates sin but loves the sinner (John 6:7)
Will not hear vanity or an
unrepentant sinner (Job 5:13; Isaiah 15:18;
Psalm 118:8)
Cannot forget your being a
doer of the Word (Hebrews6:9-10; Revelation
22:12)
Cannot admit the defiled into
Heaven (Revelation 20:11-15; 21:17)
Can’t force you to love Him
|
|
|
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Deuteronomy 9:10-16 (KJV) The
Israelites are disobedience thru idol worship! Abba desires
their obedience and accountability. He knows your heart,
your thoughts and actions. How quickly our heart turns to
evil. He will test you…. chasteneth and discipline you. He
will draw you back to Himself from an incurablely wicked
world through trials & tribulations. |
|
Our idol can be possessions, wealth,
and power. |
|
Deut. 8:18 – “And thou
say in thy heart, ‘My power and the might of mine hand
hath gotten me this wealth.’ But thou shalt remember the
LORD thy God: for it is He that giveth thee power to get
wealth.”
|
|
Without a commitment to God’s Word, we
shall perish. What happened aforetime is for our learning!
Have no golden aphis bulls in your closet. |
|
Those with short Spiritual
Memory without a commitment to God’s Word shall perish. What
happened aforetime is for our learning.
An example Judges 2:6-10
(KJV) Why this short spiritual memory? |
 |
- Flesh Man …. Lusts of flesh
- Soulish ….lusts of world
- Back in Egyptian
bondage…slavery to sin and idolatry
- Temptations by Satan
|
|
Our “short spiritual
memory” is caused by insecurities, inferiorities, worldly
desires, our primitive flesh man and the adversary's desire
for your soul. |
 |
|
The Holy Spirit will grieve those that
drift away from God's Word. Abba disciplines those whom He
loves. Be restored by these "night seasons." |
Psalm 11:5 (KJV) The LORD
trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth
violence his soul hateth.
|
|
|
|
HAFTORAH |
|
Isaiah 49: 22-26 (KJV). Who is
the uplifted hand, the standard? This is another messianic
chapter. See how it relates to New Testament writings. The
captives are being returned home. Who were the captives set
free by Jesus when He was in the belly of the earth? He took
sin and death captive and freed us from Satan. |
|
Confusion shall prevail in the camp of
the enemy. Can you see the work of the redeeming Hand of the
Lord? |
|
These messianic references are for your
finding as "pearls in a field," but they are revealed to all
New Testament believers, as the mysteries of the Bible
...for example. |
|
Isaiah 49
= Ephesians..
i.e.. Book 49 of the Bible ….Mystery of Christ is revealed
to the Ephesians. |
|
Ephesians. ( 3:1-12
(KJV) Amazing...the Hand of the Holy
Spirit. |
|
|
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Luke 4:1-13 (KJV) Satan has a
plan: |
Psalm 11:3 (KJV) If the
foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
|
|
The number 40 is prophetic of trials,
testing and woes - a time of purification unto
righteousness. |
|
Jesus deals with the “father of lies” &
deception. |
|
Satan offers Jesus an alternate path to
His rule and reign. Satan holds title deed to planet Earth
v. 5-8 (John 12:31;14:30;16:11; 2 Cor. 4:4). He offers these
ruling powers to Yeshua Jesus. Yeshua Jesus, a a man,
withstands and rebukes the Devil.
|
|
Why is Christ concealed in O.T. Tanach
to be revealed in N.T. Brit Chadasha?
|
1 Corinthians 2:7-8 (KJV)
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the
hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto
our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew:
for had they known it, they would not have crucified the
Lord of glory.”.....
|
|
Satan's mind is not open to understand
Scripture! ...God's Holy Word is veiled to unbelievers! |
|
What is Satan’s plan for the “lost?” |
2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (KJV)
“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are
lost: 4 In whom the god of this world (Satan) hath
blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the
light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image
of God, should shine unto them. ( mine)
|
James 5:7- 11 (KJV). Be patient
and be prepared, as the Lord is coming soon! His Bride is
refreshed in the early and latter rains. Live in harmony and
brotherly love.

7:35- 53; 1 Timothy 5:17- 22; Hebrews 10:28- 31. |

Topic:
Judgment (In Hebrew ṭa‛am--tah'-am);
THE Judge (in Hebrew Ha' Shofet) Who is the ultimate Judge
for our Judgment? Where will you receive Jesus’ non-partial
(honest) judgment?-at the Bema seat or THE WHITE THRONE? Are
you written in The Lamb’s Book of Life? Who is Yeshua Jesus?
He is the Pre-incarnate Elohim, Messiah ben Joseph, Messiah
ben David, Emanuel (God with us). He has all the needed
credentials to judge us. |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Deuteronomy 18:15-22 (KJV) God
give Moses a note of caution for the Israelites and us
to have discernment over prophetic words spoken (V. 20). |
Taken from Mike Bikle..Growing in
the Prophetic. Bickle alerts us that many times
prophetic words are embellished even in mature prophets. The
use of prophetic gifting is to edify Christ and the Body of
Christ not the prophet. There are times a prophet should be
silent.
|
 |
|
How then is there Prophetic
accountability? |
1 Corinthians 14:29-33 (KJV)29
Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other
judge. 30 If any thing be revealed to another that
sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. 31 For ye may
all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may
be comforted. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are
subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of
confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the
saints.
|
|
Who is that Prophet “to rise up” ? He
is the Word. Torah from Mt. Horeb…HARSH WORD. Who is the
Word from Mt. Horeb? |
John 1:1-4 (KJV)1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with
God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was
not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and
the life was the light of men.
|
|
….Even today people find God’s Word too
harsh to hear …. |
There are 330 Tanach prophecies
foretelling of Jesus’ 1st Coming. He came as a Jewish Rabbi-
a teacher, preacher, prophet, servant, shepherd, healer,
deliverer, Redeemer, Savior, Messiah …. A sacrificial Lamb.
John 1:29 (KJV) “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto
him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away
the sin of the world.” ….. The
Passover Lamb |
|
John the Baptist inquired of Jesus,
Are you both Messiah’s? |
Luke 7:19 (KJV) "And John
(the Baptist) calling unto him two of his
disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that
should come? or look we for another?" (insert mine)
|
|

|
Yeshua Jesus is both Messiahs ....I AM |
|

|
HAFTORAH |
Isaiah 51:1-13 (KJV) Who is the
chapter addressing? Those who seek to be righteous (Tzaddikim)

my judgment; light
- V. 5 … my righteousness, my
salvation, mine arms
- V.6 & 8… my righteousness,

- V. 13 creator (Col . 1:16)
- What is the hidden Messiah
to do for mankind? ..V11.
- Harken unto me
(Yeshua Jesus) if you desire righteousness…V 1.
- Prophetic of the
Millennium v. 3 & v. 11. Prophetic of white throne
Judgment and eternity V.6

Messianic (Isaiah 51=Colossians

Wisdom of God |
Proverbs 25:2 (KJV) 2 It is
the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of
kings is to search out a matter.
1Corinthians 2:7 (KJV) But we speak the wisdom of
God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God
ordained before the world unto our glory:

The Bible is designed
as a hologram. Here a little…there a little. It reiterates
and explains itself by the principle of Chiastic Hebrew
Parallelism. (an embedded message system). Designed to
prevent hostile jamming. Designed to prevent the enemy from
distorting the signal of God’s message….designed to reduce
the signal to noise ratio. Holy Spirit hovers over God’s
Word… we see the Bible's intelligent design. The New and
Revised Bible Versions have deletions or an embellished
text. |
|
Look for the Encrypted Messages in
Scriptures |
- Hebrew encryption
- Albam….folded back alphabet
- Atbash …split and
interposed
- Reishei-Tivot…. 1st letter
each word
- Chiastic Hebrew Poetry (Hebrew
Parallelism)
- NT Mystery (mysteries)….Veiled
OT gospel …“OT concealed…NT revealed”
- Parables
- Prophecy .. “It shall come to
past…..”
- Prophetic code words (types,
similitude's, Hebrew names) …. Such as Joshua, Joseph,
Assyrian, Egypt, gold, silver, bronze, etc.
- Tanach ELDS codes and NT heptad

|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Acts 3:13-26 (KJV) Even after
His Death, The Name of Jesus brings healing. Repent for
salvation is through the risen Christ. Yeshua Jesus is the
fulfillment of Tanach prophecy- Jew first then Gentiles.
|
|
Act 7:37 (KJV) "This is that
Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet
shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren,
like unto me; him shall ye hear." |
|
Matthew 18:10-14 (KJV) Today,
Christ is the Good Shepherd, the prophesized Kinsman
Redeemer who sits at the Right Hand of God as Our High
Priest and Intercessor. |
John 10:11-18 (KJV) I am
the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for
the sheep. But he that is an hireling, and not the
shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf
coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf
catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling
fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for
the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep,
and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth me, even so
know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them
also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and
there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. Therefore
doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that
I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I
lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and
I have power to take it again. This commandment have I
received of my Father.
|
|
One Shepherd.…One flock. The sheep: The
Jew …Brothers of His fold- “Jew first” for He came to
His own and they rejected Him; then the Gospel to the
Gentiles…the House of Israel (Ephraim , The Church,
Sephardim)…”lost sheep;” then to the mixed-multitude grafted
into Israel ..the “other sheep” not of My fold…. “all
mankind”
|
|
The Lord's Judgment of your soul is for eternity.
|
Hebrews 10:30-31 (KJV) For
we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me,
I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord
shall judge his people. It is a fearful thing to fall
into the hands of the living God.
John 5:22 (KJV) For the Father judgeth no man,
but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
|
|
Christ shall judge according to
plumb-line of Torah. |

Topic:
Behold God’s Blessings or curses?
Behold God’s city; Behold evil exists amongst us.
Behold the adversary roams the Earth looking for someone to
deceive and lead away from God’s WORD, the Truth. Have
discernment of all doctrine and teachings. Behold He who is
within you is greater than he that is in the world |
|
 |
Scripture of
the day:
Colossians 2:8 (KJV)
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain
deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of
the world, and not after Christ
|
|
|
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
Deuteronomy 11:26-12:14 (KJV)….
verse 26 "Behold, I set before you this day………"
Know Torah’s blessings and curses; they are found in
Deuteronomy 28:1-15 (blessings); 16-53 (Curses). Don’t let
the enemy’s deception lead you away from God’s Blessings for
you. Under the curses you open a portal to the dark side.

Where is God’s Name upon the land?
(verses 5, 11, 14, 18, 21, 26) |
Genesis 22:2, 4 (KJV) 2
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac,
whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah;
and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the
mountains which I will tell thee of...... 4 Then
on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the
place afar off.
|
|
 |

Bethel means
"House of God" |
Mountains of Moriah means:
- visible to
the LORD
- chosen of the LORD
- The place where the
LORD Provides
- Instructions of the
LORD

Isaiah 54:11-55:6 (KJV) What is
the heritage of the Lord’s servants? Shalom in Jerusalem… ?
Is this a picture of the New Jerusalem? |

Who is the blacksmith & waster? |
Attention to Hebrew Parallelism.
In review this is the format of Hebrew
parallelism......................... (A___B___;

b_____)
|
|
Isaiah 54:16 (KJV) Behold,
I have created the smith that bloweth
the coals in the fire, and that
bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and
I have created the waster
to destroy. |
|
From this Chiastic Hebraic structure,
we see that God created the evil waster - the smith with
tormenting fire- (Satan and His demons). The fiery work of
the waster is to destroy! |
|
The deceiver amongst
you forges weapons of destruction! If you live under God’s
Blessings in Christ Jesus, no forged weapon shall harm
you..... for the enemy can have no claim on you. For
Behold He who is within us is greater than he in the world.
|

Remember ....Isaiah book 54 = 1
Timothy 4:1-5) ..The waster/destroyer |
1 Timothy 4:1-2 (KJV) 1 Now
the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times
some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to
seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking
lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a
hot iron;

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT

|
1 Corinthians 5:9-13 (KJV) Sin
in the Camp…. It is infectious! … “a little leaven” What
will one rotten apple do to whole barrel? Purge the leaven
amongst you. |
1 Corinthians 10:21 (KJV)
"Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of
devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and
of the table of devils."
|
|
Repent while it is today. Don’t be a
stumbling block to your Christian brother. Are we (the
congregation) Children of Light or Darkness? (1 John
1:6-10) Confess & Repent as King David did…for He is a
Faithful and Just GOD. |
|
Discussion of 1 Corinthians 5 message
of "Judging” Now, A question from today’s reading: Judging
one another? Is there interpersonal accountability under
Torah? Who judges sin within the Camp? |
Exodus 18:16 (KJV) When they
have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between
one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of
God, and his laws.
|
|
Who judges sin outside the Camp? |
|
Distinguish between Judgmental vs.
Judging? |
James 4:11 (KJV) Speak not
evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of
his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of
the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law,
thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
James 5:9 (KJV) Grudge not one against another,
brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge
standeth before the door.
|
|
Judgmental is to look at your
brother with a "jaundiced eye" in gossip condemnation. |
|
Don’t judge one another?...applies to
the food laws when taken in context. |
Romans 14:13-15
(KJV) Let us not therefore judge one another any
more: but judge this rather, that no man put a
stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's
way. (14) I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus,
that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that
esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
(15) But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now
walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy
meat, for whom Christ died.
|
|
Food laws are not to be a stumbling
block for Christian brothers. Also for second witness
see! Romans 14:1-3 |
|
Cliché…“We don’t judge as Yeshua Jesus
is the final Judge in all matters …” |
Romans 2:16 (KJV) In the day
when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ
according to my gospel.
John 5:22 (KJV) For the Father judgeth no man,
but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
2 Timothy 4:1 (KJV) I charge thee therefore
before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge
the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
|
|
To understand judging one another, we
need counsel of the whole of the Scriptures and search
diligently to remez. |
|
Returning to 1 Corinthians 5:12b
(KJV) 12 do not ye judge them that are within? |
1 Corinthians 5:1-2 (KJV)
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication
among you, and such fornication as is not so much as
named among the Gentiles, that one should have his
father’s wife. 2 And ye are puffed up, and have not
rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might
be taken away from among you. …5 To deliver such an one
unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the
spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 6 Your
glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven
leaveneth the whole lump?
Romans 15:14 (KJV) 14 And
I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye
also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge,
able also to admonish one another.
Colossians 3:16-17 (KJV) 16 Let the word of Christ
dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and
admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and
spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to
the Lord. 17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do
all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God
and the Father by him.
|
|
“Admonish”… warn, to put in mind, that
is, (by implication) to caution or reprove gently; to inform
or remind as a warning, exhort (to do what is proper or
required). |
|
Admonish and
Exhortation in love. |
|
Remember Satan roams the Earth and our
souls are the objects of an unseen warfare… What is your
personal relationship with Christ? |
Job 1:6 - Job 1:7 (KJV)
Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present
themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among
them. And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou?
Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to
and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in
it.
1 Peter 5:8-9 (KJV) Be sober, be vigilant;
because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion,
walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
|
1 John 4:1-6 (KJV) Discern
spirits…. Test the Spirit behind a person or thing. Yes
indeed…… There are “seeds” of Satan ….Demons embodied/
un-embodied. They become embodied by the portal of sin.
Confess Jesus Christ as Lord. |
1 Corinthians 12:3 (KJV).
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking
by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no
man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy
Ghost.
James 4:7-8 (KJV). Submit yourselves therefore to God.
Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh
to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your
hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double
minded.
1 John 3:8-10 (KJV) He that committeth sin is of
the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For
this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he
might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born
of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in
him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In
this the children of God are manifest, and the children
of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not
of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

Setting our selves apart, form this world, is by being
submissive to Jesus Christ. What is Abba’s purpose for

TORAH |
Deuteronomy 24:1- 4 (KJV) A
certificate of divorce was allowed. Yes, because of hardness
of your hearts… A get (
 ) is the Hebrew
word for a certificate of divorce. Its Paleo-Hebrew meaning
is the crowning accomplishment of a good marriage being
turned bad. |
|
A Hebrew wedding is a two step process: |
- A marriage contract (ketuba)
for commitment to be one (echad)
- A consummation to be one under
chuppah .

Fornication is
a mockery of God’s oneness for us. |
1 Corinthians 6:15-20 (KJV)
15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of
Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and
make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. 16 What?
know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one
body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. 17 But he
that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. 18 Flee
fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the
body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against
his own body. 19 What? know ye not that your body is the
temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have
of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought
with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in
your spirit, which are God’s.

Hosea remarries his harlot wife.
.... Hosea 3:1-5 (KJV) Is this prophetic that Abba will take

can Abba, being Torah observant, take back idolatrous

Jeremiah 3:8 (KJV) And I
saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel
committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a
bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared
not, but went and played the harlot also.

NOW Reread Torah……
Deuteronomy 24:4 (KJV) 4 Her former husband,
which sent her away, may not take her again to be his
wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination
before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to
sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
|
|
Deuteronomy 24:4 ………has a
Messianic overtones….Can you see God’s solution? How can
that which is tainted become white as snow. |
Isaiah 1:18 (KJV) Come
now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though
your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
|
|
Abba reunites all who
sin and fall short of His Glory by the Blood of Jesus! Can
you see the power of the Blood of Jesus to overcome sin? |
 |
Hebrews 13:20-21 (KJV)
Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead
our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep,
through the blood of the everlasting covenant, (21) Make
you perfect in every good work to do his will, working
in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through
Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Jerermiah 32:41 (KJV)
“Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I
will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole
heart and with my whole soul.”
|
|
We can only do good, be righteous by
the Blood of Jesus not by Torah. Righteousness only comes
unto Salvation by the Blood of Christ. Torah is a schoolmarm
(instructions) to be obedient after having achieved
righteousness. We the Church (redeemed House of Israel) and
House of Judah, are redeemed from adultery (idolatry &
disobedience) when we accept Jesus as our Lord, Redeemer and
Savior. Abba is to united and justify all Israel (House of
Jacob) thru Christ. |
|
It is God’s plan to make us, all be one
in Christ? (echad). Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor
Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male
nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. |
|
Separation from Abba brings broken
relationships in marriage, in brotherhoods, in the Church. |
|
|
|
HAFTORAH |
|
Isaiah 54:1-10 (KJV)
Two women:….The barren woman & the
desolate woman. Who is the barren woman & the desolate woman
? |
- The barren woman is unredeemed
Judah. The married wife of Jehovah at Mt. Sinai and wife
of Youth, but a widow as they did not recognize their
Messiah, a Jewish Rabbi, Yeshua Jesus. Now unredeemed in
widowhood. “Barren…. Married, Rejected, Widowed!" Barren
Judah…failed their commission
|
Exodus 19:5-6 (KJV) 5 Now
therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me
above all people: for all the earth is mine: 6 And ye
shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy
nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto
the children of Israel.
|
Thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles
(Isa. 54:3). How shall this Covenant of Peace come
about for Israel? A New Covenant made by the Blood of
Yeshua Jesus with the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us
in all things.
|
Jeremiah
31:31-33 (KJV) 31 Behold, the days come, saith the
LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of
Israel, and with the house of Judah: 32 Not according to
the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day
that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the
land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I
was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: 33 But this
shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my
law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts;
and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
|
- The desolate woman has many
children.These passages points to Yeshua Jesus' Church.
Desolate Ephraim (sown to Gentiles) was to be that
fruitful branch of Joseph to become the Church. The
Gentiles were the fertile soil for Gospel of Salvation.
It went to all nations and tongues = many children being
King and Priests of Melchizedek. Seed of Abraham sowed
to all nations, people and tongues by Gospel of Jesus
Christ.
|
Galatians 3:29 (KJV) And if
ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs
according to the promise.
|
|
He is faithful and true and will
restore the kingdom to His “chosen”/ “called-out” ones.
|
|
Abba uses the marriage/ divorce as a metaphor of His
restoration Plan. |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
Matthew 19:1- 9 (KJV) Divorce
was not in Abba’s plan. God cherishes the Marriage covenant
made before him as a man and woman choose to become one in
His eyes. Divorce was allowed because of the "hardness of
your heart" - because of unforgiveness, unlove, lack of
submission, lack of self –denial, lust of eyes, pride). Yet,
the Father has done everything possible that we might return
to Him as the Bride of Christ. Keep yourselves prepared to
be Christ's Bride. You know His expectations...."If
you love Me keep My Commandments" |
|
1 Corinthians 7:1-5 (KJV) As the
bride of Christ, it is good to flee from fornication (don’t
touch, look, speak about)… leave no room for the enemy! Let
every one of us (believers) stay Christ-centered. Not
leading one another astray by following other god’s or
dealing deceitfully (wrong) with each other. We were bought
with a price, even with the blood of Christ. We are were
created to be free (one in Christ- Shalom) |
- Eph. 4:24 "And that ye put on
the new man, which after God is created in righteousness
and true holiness."
- Col. 3:10 "And have put
on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the
image of him that created him:"
|
Once
under fornication, without repentance, is to be under the
bondage of sin.
Romans 8:8-17 (KJV)
Galatians 5:7-26 (KJV)
Galatians 3:13-14 KJV)

By dispersion we come to understanding the two Houses of
Israel-----A Redemption plan of Remnant by Yeshua Jesus
---Re-gathering as ONE NEW MAN . |
|
Let us understand terminology Isaiah 48:1(KJV)
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the
name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of
Judah, |
|
Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Deuteronomy 28:61-68 (KJV) Is God’s Prophetic Word
True? Did not this dispersion come true? |
Deu 28:65 And among these nations shalt thou find
no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest:
but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart,
and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
|
|
The wandering Jew is to be found in
every town, country nation of the world. Let us examine what
happen when the House of Jacob fell under the curse of
Deuteronomy 28. |
The
House of Jacob began as the 12 Tribes ruled by Judges. Then
the United Monarchy (Saul of tribe of Benjamin-- 1050--1010
BC; David of tribe of Judah--1010--970 BC; Solomon of tribe
of Judah ---970--930 BC. Then the Divided Kingdom: Northern Kingdom of
House of Israel (Ephraim)--930--722 BC. and Southern Kingdom
of House of Judah--930--70AD.
Are these to be 2 witnesses in God’s Plan to gather unto
Himself a remnant people. |
|
Understanding the Dispersion of the House of Israel is to
understand Joseph and his sons. |
Gen 49:22 (KJV) Joseph is a fruitful bough, even
a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the
wall:
Hos 14:6 (KJV) His branches (Ephraim) shall
spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and
his smell as Lebanon.
|
|
 |
 |
|
Principle of Tracer chemistry…Particle physics… Where is
Ephraim?---Dispersed amongst the nations as vapor. Ephraim
is dispersed everywhere just as the wandering Jew to be
found all over the face of the earth. |
|
Let’s see…….Northern Kingdom dispersed in 722 BC…..Totally
Assimilated into the Gentile Melo Ha’Goyim (nations)
--Generations of intermarriage …Migrations…wars.. 722 +
2000=Hum…..2722+ years!!!! |
|
Do any of us really know who we are descendents from ….?? We
are the Children of Abraham…"Israelites" (Galatians 3:26-29) |
|
|
|
NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|
James 1:1-18 (KJV) James is addressing the lost 12
tribes. What happened afore time is for our learning! Endure
temptations and trials with patience and perseverance. Live
by faith, hope and love… be fruitful. Trials increase your
faith or by trials you will abandoned the faith. Think about
the days ahead..watch the geo-political-religious scene.
Hold steadfast to your faith….be patient |
James 5:7-9 (KJV) Be patient therefore, brethren,
unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman
waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath
long patience for it, until he receive the early and
latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts:
for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. Grudge not one
against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold,
the judge standeth before the door.
|
|
Romans 11:1-16 (KJV) ..A remnant is always
preserved…Salvation is a narrow road for broad is the road
to destruction. |
|
Matthew 25:14-32 (KJV) A Parable to us (the
Branches). To whom much is given …much is expected and even
more shall be given. But to him/her given less..also more is
expected . What are we talking about? |
|
Be a fruitful branch. ….A Mandate!
|
Mark 16:15-19 (KJV) And he said unto them, Go ye
into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name
shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink
any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay
hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after
the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into
heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

Isaiah 60:1-15 (KJV) A Restoration. The threshold of
the Millennial Kingdom of Christ! Even Muslims are redeemed
believers. |

Isaiah is a miniature Bible Isa. 60 = 1 Peter |
|
1 Peter 1:1-12 (KJV) Your inheritance is worth
waiting for-- –don’t expect a free lunch. Eternity is yours
by faith and perseverance through the Holy Spirit. The
earthly life is a probation period---We have not arrived
yet! |
Restoration : Jews in Israel have a Messianic
expectation of the return of Ephraim. Sound the Shofar
to the four corners to gather our exiles. Sephardim are
arising out of the sands of New Mexico and Texas.

Isaiah 62:1-12 (KJV) What are we
dealing with in these verses? ??? A city, Zion, Jerusalem,
Jesus, the Bridegroom, the people, the “lost” Israelites,
the Gentiles, the Church , the Bride????? |
|
Metaphors and mixed metaphors!!! Yes,
the verse alludes to all these situations! Read carefully.
Very Messianic and Kingdom to come. |
|
V. 12 redeemed people and a city
used interchangeable. A Hebrew/Jewish method of thought and
writing. |
|
Who is verse 11? Daughter of Zion is a
new generation to go to Zion. They are to behold their
salvation (Yeshua). |
|
Isaiah describes a
wedding in verse 5. |
|
What is the New Jerusalem? Is the Bride
a city or people. Check out verse 12. You people as
Overcomers; You are the Bride. Yeshua Jesus is now in the
Father's house making a home for the Bride...a city for her
to dwell within for all eternity. |

Yom Terurah is a vestibule, portico,
into the Awesome Repentant Days of Awe. Its Biblical and
Prophetic significance is unveiled for us.
|

Lessons: |
|
TORAH |
|
Numbers 29:1-6 (KJV) This verse
defines Yom Terurah. Later named Rosh HaShanah by Rabbinical
Judaism. This is the Feast of the Lord that we honored at
Roadrunner exit on the Erev Shabbat service. It represents
to the “last trump,” Abraham’s left ram horn-the call to
assembly in the Book of Revelation. 100 blasts- like neon
lights- so that you get it. Shema ..Hear and Repent. The
Awesome 10 days of AWE (3 + 7 =10) a time to repent before
Yom Kippur when the Books are close. |
|
Genesis 22:7-18 (KJV) “God will
provide Himself a Lamb.” Murder is against TORAH. Abraham
knew Torah( ). Abraham knew for 3 days that his son was to
die. He believed the Promise that through his seed (Abraham)
will come all the nations of the world (Genesis 17:5). He
knew that God would have to resurrect Isaac to fulfill the
promise. Abraham is our Father of Faith. He is our example
of a righteous man judged, when the Books are opened
(Hebrews Chapter 11). Abraham is written in the Book of the
Righteous (Tzaddikim). |
|

HAFTORAH |
|
INTRODUCTION: 1 Samuel 1:10 (KJV)
“And she (Hannah) was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto
the LORD, and wept sore.” She was a bitter bareness woman.
God had closed her womb She was provoked by Peninnah,
Elkanah’s other wife. |
|
Provoking and bitterness can open a
portal to the adversary (the devil) to afflict her…. Verses
6-7 |
|
1 Samuel 2:1-10 (KJV) The Prayer
of a righteous woman. She is no longer of the intermediate
group - bitter and enraged – She is a Tzadik of the Lord in
white linen. Revelation 3:5 (KJV) "He that
overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and
I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I
will confess his name before my Father, and before his
angels.” |
|
Introduction .. Redemption is complete
on Yom Kippur…. A Happy Return |
|
Jeremiah 31:1-2
(KJV)1 At the same time, saith the LORD, will I be the
God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my
people. 2 Thus saith the LORD, The people which were left of
the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I
went to cause him to rest. |
|
Jeremiah 31:6-11 (KJV) The
remnant of Israel (Ephraim/the Church and Redeemed Jacob)
return to Tzion, the city of God. They return from the four
corners of the Earth …Tribulation is past. Christ and Bride
here at Yom Kippur. Ephraim is My firstborn? The first to
receive Christ of the Nation of re-gathered Israel. The
remainder of the barley harvest! The Great Shepherd
re-gathers Jacob into that One New Man- redeemed Israel. A
completed Olive tree. |
|

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (KJV)..“caught
up”..a catching away…laqach.. rapture… |
|
Hermeneutics… Evolution of words or do
they arise de novo in each language.The parent language of
all languages is Hebrew. |
|
Where are you going when you are
“caught-up”….Harpazo …2 Corinthians 12:2 (KJV) |
|
Enoch Raptured
: Genesis 5:24 (KJV) “And Enoch walked
with God: and he was not; for God took him.”
|
(SH# 3947 laqach)…Translate, fetch,
snatch, marry, take a wife
3947 יָקַח , לָקַח , קָח [ laqach / law• kakh /] . A
primitive root; translates as “take,” “receive,” “take
away,” “fetch,” “bring,” “get,” “take out,” “carry
away,” “married,” “buy,” OVERALL 1 to take, get, fetch,
lay hold of, seize, receive, acquire, buy, bring, marry,
take a wife, snatch, take away.
|
|
Elijah
Raptured: 2 Kings 2:10 (KJV) “And he said,
Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me
when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if
not, it shall not be so.” |
|
Enoch and Elijah by two witnesses are
prophetic examples of the rapture ..a “catching-away” of
Overcomers, who walk with God, and are taken, plucked-out,
to be with God . |
|
Rapture of 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
(KJV) Hermeneutics… “caught up”..a catching away…laqach
(Hebrew) .. Harpazo Greek)… Rapturo or Rarturo (Latin)… used
as “caught-up” in 1611 KJV Bible and rapture in vernacular
English. Why not in KJV Bible? |
Let us examine the hermeneutic
evolution of English language. It began as many Anglo Saxon
dialects…formulation of one united English by Roger Bacon…
thru Shakespeare, books etc. In Shakespearean plays, it
meant an ecstasy; violent pleasing passion, extreme joy and
pleasure. The 1828 Webster: a seizing by violence and
transport was added o definition of ecstasy.
Today’s Webster adds “as a state of being carried away with
joy and love, a carrying away in body or spirit in a
theological usage. |
|
1 Corinthians
15:50-58 (KJV) What is the last trump? What is twinkle
of an eye? |
|
Revelation 19:1-9 (KJV) The
righteous Bride is prepared and ready to return to Earth on
Yom Kippur with her husband. They return to an Earth with
reset ecology by Yeshua Jesus. Earth filled with about 2-3
million remnant Believers….These earth-dwellers repopulate
the Earth….and multiply. The Immortal Saints return to the
wedding supper of the Lamb… Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkoth).

Deliverance of the righteous. 2
Samuel 22:1-7 (KJV) Shema …Hazinu…”give ear” God does
hear our call …our prayers. Yeshua Jesus is our High Priest
and Intercessor. Keep the faith in all trials with
perseverance. Give your whole self to the Lord (“living
sacrifice”) and totally depend on him in times of need. The
Lord is with you and will not leave or forsake the
Overcomer. But many shall depart from the faith for the
cares of the world and to preserve their flesh. They
“cave-in” to the pressures of an apostate world. |

WHEN? Joel 2:15 -17 (KJV) Blow
the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn
assembly: Gather the people, sanctify the congregation,
assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that
suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his
chamber, and the bride out of her closet. Let the priests,
the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the
altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give
not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule
over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where
is their God? …..A Yom Kippur
passage …. |

great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT
CHADASHA) |
|

1 Peter 3:8 (KJV) “Finally, be
ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love
as brethren, be pitiful (sympathetic, tender-hearted) , be
courteous:” Love one another as He so Loves us. |
Peter gives an encrypted message at
Pentecost when the Holy Spirit fell upon the new born
Church. He prophesized the completion of the fullness of the
Gentiles ( the end of the Church age)
Peter’s hidden Prophecy … |
Act 2:15-21 (KJV)
For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is
but the third hour of the day. But this is that which
was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to
pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my
Spirit upon all flesh:
|
|
Here Peter is saying that the Holy
Spirit is in you. This is the new Church age ..Spirit-filled
people. |
I will pour out of my
Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall
see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour
out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall
prophesy:
|
Here Peter is saying that the
Church age shall be empowered with the gifts and calling
of the Holy Spirit from the time of its inception until
the fullness of the Gentiles is complete (~2000 years).
God intended us to be a Spirit -filled Church with Holy
Spirit signs and wonders and prophecy, just as they were
"drunk in the Spirit".
|
And I will shew wonders in
heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood,
and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be
turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
|
Here Paul describes the end of
the age, as the time of the fullness of the gentiles-the
end of the Church age- that is herald as cosmic signs of
the time.
|
And it shall come to pass,
that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord
shall be saved.
|
Here is the key verse- during
the Church age anyone who calls on the Name of Jesus
Christ will be saved. They can call on Him in their
native language and be saved.
|
Hebrews 12:9-11 (KJV) Hard
love-- God chastens who He loves. Hold fast to the Faith of
the Promise. Love God and Love thine Brother/sister. Bless
your enemies. Patience and prayer with trials and
tribulations. Have compassion-empathy-understanding …Be
humble and meek not hoity
Avenge not . Have compassion and love for your enemy as you
in your love you are heaping coal upon his head as he sees
your light which is different than his darkness. |
