Madness seems to have taken over the
world.
There seems to be no more sense of
reason amongst the people – it would seem that we are on a path to absolute
self-destruction with no consideration for anybody or anything apart from satisfying
our self-centered and all consuming desires.
Knowing that YHWH Elohim is allowing
this madness to happen would it be impertinent of me to ask if I am alone in
asking of ABBA TO PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT, IF ANYTHING, WE SHOULD BE DOING IN
THESE TIMES?
I am certain I am not alone in my
belief that HE is allowing all of this to happen according to HIS Divine Plan
and Will SO AS TO REACH AND DRAW HIS PEOPLE, THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF
YISRAEL – THOSE WHOSE NAME IS RECORDED IN THE BOOK OF LIFE - BACK TO HIS
FOLD!
CAN WE NOT SEE THAT HE IS BRINGING HIS
PEOPLE, THOSE CALLED BY HIS NAME, BACK TO HIM AS HE SYSTEMATICALLY AND
METHODICALLY DESTROYS THEIR (OUR) IDOLS AND YET IT WOULD SEEM THAT WE ARE
FIGHTING AND BICKERING AMONGST OURSELVES, AND AGAINST YHWH ELOHIM, OVER HOW TO
DEAL WITH AND PROTECT THE IDOLS IN OUR LIVES.
Our enemy is not Islam; our enemy is
not the UN - and for those viewing world events from the other side of the
spectrum – our enemy is certainly not
THE JEWS, Israel, Zionism or Donald Trump – these are all just fruit of the
enemy which YHWH Elohim has allowed to rise up so as to break down our idols,
purge us of the worship and reliance on them.
What exactly are these idols* that need to be torn down from the high places in
our lives? (2 Kings 18)
Well 1 John
2:16 tells us that all our idols are encapsulated in the lust of the
flesh; the lust of the eyes and the pride of life – AND THAT NONE OF THIS IS FROM
THE FATHER! (Ex. 20:2-5)
Now before anybody tells me that they
do not have idols (SIN) in their
lives I have it on incredibly dependable authority that – IF WE SAY WE HAVE NO
SIN WE DECIEVE OURSELVES AND THE TRUTH (SPIRIT OF YESHUA – THE RUACH HAKODESH) IS
NOT IN US! (1 John 1:8)
SO WHAT IS SIN?
Is it even vaguely possible that we
could be walking in total ignorance & bliss believing we have no SIN
(IDOLS) in our lives when in truth of fact we are involved in an insidious and
adulterous affair with the world, even with other gods (demonic spirits)?
I contend that this is not just
possible but is indeed a reality for the vast, vast majority of those claiming
belief and redemption in and through Jesus Christ.
This would appear to be a harsh, if not
a completely insensitive statement for me to make, BUT I MAKE IT and believe me
I do not make it lightly.
Why would I make such a statement
knowing it will not be well received and will certainly not endear me to most
of you out there?
Because I deal here with a matter of
life or death!
So how is it possible then, we may ask, that
one could believe there is no SIN (IDOLS) in their lives and that they, whilst
thinking they walk in the LIGHT, are in fact walking in DARKNESS?
Very simple we just twist Scripture and
its interpretation:
Look at a Scripture like 1 John 1:5-7 which tells us what we need to do to
achieve this state of “WALKING WITH JESUS IN THE LIGHT THROUGH HIS BLOOD” and
which I am convinced has resulted in all of us reading this blog
AT SOME STAGE OR ANOTHER TO MAKE AN ALTER CALL OR COMMITMENT TO JESUS – AND WE
ALL BELIEVE THAT THROUGH THIS ACTION WE WERE “BORN AGAIN” AND NOW ARE ON OUR
WAY TO HEAVEN!
BUT what if our interpretation is not
correct; what is our interpretation of this passage and others was never
properly explained to us?
Bear with me now please – This is not a
judgment call seeing as I was a victim of the above practice myself!
Now looking at the process of “rebirth”
touched on in the paragraph above, and also assuming the almost inevitable fact
that after our “rebirths” we all continued in The Church Systems wherein we
found ourselves at “rebirth”, we would all then have, by association, adopted and
immersed ourselves into all that our particular denomination stood for whilst
all the while obediently accepting what we were told by the leaders of “our
denomination” was the correct path of righteousness and eternal salvation, and
thereby it is not that difficult to imagine that we all think/thought that we
indeed have/had no SIN (IDOLS) in our lives.
BUT here is a something that is crucial
to our understanding of Salvation, Righteousness and Justice at YHWH’s level - Denominational
people, in almost all cases when asked CANNOT GIVE THE BIBLICAL DEFINITION FOR
SIN AND THOSE WHO CAN DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE DEFINITION OF SIN MEANS OR
ENTAILS!
For the uninitiated, and there are many
of us - SIN IS THE BREAKING OF THE LAW (TORAH) OF YHWH! (1 John 3:4).
As I have said this is not meant to be
judgmental nor facetious as I too fell into this trap of believing I had no sin
in my life when I was in the Denominations. Here is an example from my own life
of just such an occasion:
I received a Word from The Ruach of
YHWH when HE began leading me out of the structured church and her systems,
this word included Is. 55:6-7, and believe me or
not I had some doubt as to whether this Word applied to me or not BECAUSE WHEN
INSPECTING MYSELF (a Sunday Church goer breaking applicable Torah in every
aspect imaginable) I COULD FIND NO SIN IN MY LIFE BECAUSE I WAS DOING ALL THAT
THE CHURCH SAID I SHOULD DO, AND I WAS DOING IT PERFECTLY! I was so entrenched
in “Denominational Doctrine” that it took me almost 7 years of tutoring by The
Ruach HIMSELF for me to realise that I was constantly living in sin
AND THUS NOT LOVING YESHUA AS HE COMMANDS AND DESIRES simply because I was not keeping Torah, I
was into Sunday worship, unholy diets, Christmas and Easter Celebrations – you
name it I did it and Jesus & the Church were OK with that – ACCORDING TO MY
PASTOR - SO WHO WAS I TO CHALLENGE THEM!
WOW what a blind fool I was! Thank-you
Abba that you, by your Grace and Mercy opened my eyes to YOUR TRUE LOVE (John 14:15, 21 & 23) OF YOUR LIVING WORD!
So SIN IS TO BREAK HIS LAW, HIS TORAH
AS RECORDED BY THE FINGER OF THE LAWGIVER HIMSELF ON MT. SINAI AND THEN HANDED DOWN
TO MOSHE (1 John 3:4).
That same LAW DEMANDS THE DEATH OF
MESSIAH YESHUA, THE COVENANT & LAWGIVER HIMSELF, SO THAT WE CAN NOW BE
SPARED THE PENALTY OF DEATH WE SO RICHLY DESERVE! (Is.
33:22; Col. 2:13-14; James 4:12)
TO ACHIEVE THIS STATUS, AUTHORITY TO BE
DEEMED THE LAMB OF ELOHIM WHO WILL TAKE AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD (John 1:29). YESHUA NEVER EVER BROKE THE LAW, THE TORAH
(2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 4:15;
1 Pet. 2:22; 1 John 3:5)
REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE CHURCH MAY SAY ABOUT THE WOMAN CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF
ADULTRY (John 8:1-30) OR THAT WE CAN NOW EAT ANY
FOOD WE WANT TO BECAUSE OF Matt. 15:2, 11.
CONSEQUENTLY WE, HIS DISCIPLES, THOSE
WHO NOW ABIDE IN YESHUA WILL HAVE TO BEGIN TO WALK AS HE WALKED BY FIRSTLY
REPENTING OF OUR SIN (BREAKING OF TORAH) AND ACCEPTING HIS PERFECT SACRIFICE -
AND HOW DO WE DO THAT? – 1 John 2:3 TELLS US
THAT BY OBEYING HIS COMMANDMENTS (HIS TORAH OR COVENANT CONDITIONS) WE KNOW
THAT WE KNOW HIM! This verse uses very intimate Covenant
Language usually exchanged between a Groom and His Bride!
NOW DOES THIS COURSE OF EVENTS
DESCRIBED ABOVE MATCH YOUR COURSE OF EVENTS AS DICTATED BY YOUR UNDERSTANDING
OF REBIRTH AND RETURNING TO THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SALVATION OR AS YOUR
DENOMINATIONS PRESENTED 1 John 1:5-7 TO YOU?
I would dare to venture that most, if
not all of us, did not walk the path of Teshuva
(Return in Hebrew) as is Biblically mandated, yet the Church Systems will have
us believe that YESHUA, THE ONE WHO NEVER WILL AND NEVER CAN WALK IN SIN,
APPLIES 1 John 2:4 WHEN DEALING WITH HIS
BETROTHED. Let us stand still here and consider 1
John 2:4
“He that saith, I know
HIM, and keepeth not HIS commandments is a liar and the Truth in not in him!”
THIS APPLICATION MAKES THE JESUS THAT
THE CHURCH SYSTEM PROMOTES ONE WHO IS WELL PLEASED WITH HIS DISCIPLES
WALKING IN CONTINUAL SIN (BREAKING TORAH) AS SATAN AND HIS KIND WOULD DO WHEN IN FACT AS HIS DISCIPLES, WE SHOULD NEVER WALK IN SIN BUT BY OBDEDIANCE (FAITH
AND TRUST) IN YESHUA AND HIS TORAH! (James 2:18-20)
REMEMBER THAT YHWH ELOHIM SAID OF YESHUA – THIS IS MY SON IN WHOM I AM WELL PLEASED –
SO LISTEN TO HIM!
AND
WHY WAS HE PLEASED WITH YESHUA? BECAUSE YESHUA KEPT THE LAW, ONLY DID AS HE SAW
AND HEARD FROM HIS FATHER!
(Matt. 3:17; Matt. 17:5;
2 Pet. 1:17; John 8:28;
John 12:49)
It is a given that while we are all
still in the flesh, and just as the Apostle Sha’ul lamented, WE SHALL ALL FALL
INTO SIN FROM TIME TO TIME - BUT WHEN WE DO, WE HAVE AN ADVOCATE IN MESSIAH
YESHUA (Rom. 7:21-25)!
HOWEVER IF ONE IS TO WALK IN HABITUAL AND CONTINUAL SIN, IN REBELLION TO YHWH
THROUGH INTENTIONALLY BREAKING HIS TORAH, THE TORAH WHICH ILLUSTRATED THE WAY
HIS SON WAS, IS AND FOREVER SHALL BE, AND THEREFORE HOW WE TOO SHOULD BE FOR
ETERNITY THROUGH MESSIAH, THIS ONE IS
AND SHALL FOREVER BE THEN AS THE WORD SAYS – ONE THAT HAS NEVER SEEN OR KNOWN YESHUA!
(1 John 3:6)
This concept spoken of above is
actually rather straight forwards – WHEN WE WALK AS YESHUA WALKED WE WALK OUT
HIS TORAH EMULATING WHO HE ACTUALLY IS – THE LIVING TORAH & THEREFORE THERE
IS NO SIN AND HE REIGNS & RULES IN THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION – HOWEVER
THE MOMENT WE BREAK HIS TORAH, i.e. NOT WALK AS HE WALKED WE ARE IN SIN! This
Torah inspired Walk in The Ruach is how we are also to walk if we are to be a
Light and Salt to the World. (1 John 2:4-6; Matt. 5:13-16)
Please allow me to again reiterate 1 John 2:3, the test by which we can tell if we indeed
KNOW
YESHUA – IF WE ARE ENTERING INTO A PROGRESSIVELY MORE INTIMATE
RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM WHO IS THE PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINS
– IS
THAT WE WILL KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS!
Where do we find His Commandments and that
we are instructed to keep them?
Yeshua HIMSELF answers that question in
Mat. 5:17-20 – by telling us that HE has not
come to destroy the LAW or
THE PROPHETS but rather to fulfill them (The Law and the Prophets where
we find His Torah) – in fact in Greek it is recorded that HE STATED THAT HE
CAME TO PLEROO** - G4137 – to fully preach,
accomplish, satisfy - Hebrew idiomatic expression is to Magnify the Law
and the Prophets.
Before we continue please take the time
to read the description of the portion highlighted with asterisks’ (**) above & located at the end of the blog it may
assist with what I am to say next.
As I stated in the beginning of this
blog, not a day goes past that we are not bombarded with all sorts of world
events, events that are indeed mind boggling, so instead of being caught up in
the frenzy of the day could we not just take a moment to sit and consider these
events and players within the events and see them for what they are?
These events were prophesied by Yeshua,
HE also told us that WE SHOULD NOT BE CONCERNED ABOUT THEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO
COME TO PASS AND THAT THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF BIRTH PAINS! Matt. 24:5-8
How far along we are with these birth pains
I cannot say, but possibly further than we may think, but regardless of that we
need to take cognizance of the fact that these events, as stressful as they may
be, are indeed being gloriously choreographed and designed, just as happened in
Egypt, so that our Idols will and must be destroyed resulting in the world, and
also us who are called by His Name, seeing the GLORY OF YHWH OUR ELOHIM! Ex. 7:4-5
These world events are impacting all
our comfort zones, in other words, OUR IDOLS WHICH HAVE BECOME THE SUPPORTS,
THE PILLARS IN OUR LIVES.
These supports/pillars/IDOLS take on
too many forms and variations to all named or identified but in an attempt to
identify them a good rule of Thumb I believe is suggested to us in Ex. 20:2-5 – if you cannot foresee life without something IT MAY BE AN
IDOL!
So whether that “something” be the
local political party; our savings; our children; our local denomination; our
job; our status; our pride – or whatever is being threatened and is causing us to
behave franticly in an attempt to not only defend it, (our supports and idols) BUT
indeed PROTECT THEM IN THE NAME OF YHWH. Eze. 20
arw Ex. 20:3 we may be looking at an IDOL!
BUT WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT THESE
IDOLS IN OUR LIVES ARE NOTHING MORE THAN SUPPORTS UPON WHICH WE RELY, AND THAT WHICH
IS ATTACKING IT, our IDOL, MAY NOT NECESSARILY BE OUR ENEMY - Islam or the
Democrats are not our enemies; neither is homosexuality, liberalism or anything
else for that matter; THESE ARE AKIN TO THE PLAGUES THAT YHWH USED IN EGYPT –
HE ALLOWD THEM TO HAPPEN TO ACHIEVE A PURPOSE!
So if it is not these isms’, or any
combination of these and a million other “wrongs” that are the enemy, then what
is?
IT
IS THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS THAT IS OUR ENEMY!
But please read on to learn how he, the
enemy, manifests himself in such a deceptive and destructive way!
The Idols that we have in our lives are
not always necessarily something which started of as an idol, it may have been
something that YHWH allowed for a season – HOWEVER THE SEASON PASSES BUT OUR
DEPENDANCE ON WHAT YHWH GAVE TO US FOR A SEASON, FOR A PURPOSE BECOMES AN IDOL
WHEN WE REFUSE TO LET IT GO. Num. 21:5-9 arw 2 Kings 18:4.
I have seen this same practice causing
devastating results when parents will not release their children to live their
own lives.
And of course we also have those idols
that are patently wrong – pornography, alcohol, cigarettes, lust for wealth and
so forth.
But what about a far less visible IDOL?
What about an IDOL that is stealthy,
insidious (sneaky, deceptive)?
An idol that has so much credibility
that those who would even venture to suggest it may be “an Idol” are seen as
sacrilegious, even heretic?
We are all confronted with this IDOL
almost everyday of our lives on almost every level of society; allow me to
explain a little more graphically if I may please:
During the preparation and writing of
this blog I had the opportunity to have coffee with a good friend of mine, we
have been acquainted for more than 25 years. My friend is an ardent denominationalist
and therefore he does not agree with my Biblical Torah stance and he is very
aware of the fact that I do not agree with his denominational theology, however
we respect each other’s views, but on occasions things do get “a little out of
hand”.
Just such an occasional hiccup occurred
during our coffee appointment the other day via a lighthearted discussion on the
situation in the Middle East – I really never saw this coming, but come it did and
I am very grateful for this situation which got “a little out of hand” because
it gave me a ringside seat view of something I had never before discerned.
My friend immediately went to the
defence of the Palestinians using all the rhetoric one reads in this regard so
I asked him what he thought of the Covenant YHWH made with Abraham – his answer
– I DON’T BELIEVE IT’S TRUE, I DON’T BELIEVE IN IT!
There
it is right up front – here is a person well versed in The Word WHO DOES NOT
BELIEVE IN THE COVENANT YHWH MADE WITH ABRAHAM!
He immediately followed up this
declaration with “I DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP THE LAW BECAUSE JESUS FULFILLED IT AND
DIED FOR ME. I DON’T WANT TO BECOME A JEW & ANYWAY I DON’T BELIEVE IN THE
SABBATH AS YOU DO – WE CELEBRATE HIS RESURRECTION ON THE SUNDAY, NOT THE
SABBATH LAW!”
The dam had burst – and the rest flooded
out: He touched on how we can now eat pork; Jesus told us it’s not what goes in
but what is in the heart – he rushed towards the “no need for circumcision”
– I tried to speak to him but he closed any form of debate with the words – “That
is what I believe and nobody will change my mind!”
I really like and respect this person,
BUT THERE AGAIN I SAW THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THAT I CAN EVER
FELLOWSHIP WITH HIM UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS – HIS IDOL OF RELIGION PREVENTS
THAT! Acts 15:19-21 arw Acts 15:28-29
In hindsight I must say that this
person grounds his entire theology on John Calvin AND THE APOSTLE PAUL
as summed up in the Heidelberg Catechism! He hardly ever mentions the works or
life of Yeshua – apart from those few misunderstood/heretical instances quoted
above.
I saw something IN this person that I have never
seen/identified before – THERE WAS SOMETHING SPIRITUAL WITH THIS PERSON’S
ANIMOSITY TOWARDS “THE LAW”
I SAW THE HATRED HE HAS FOR “THE JEWS”!
I SAW THE SPIRIT OF ANTI-SEMITISM!
This is astounding; as I sit here and
try to render into words what I saw in the flesh and grounded on a spiritual
manifestation leaves me speechless.
Here is the greatest deception of the enemy
that we face in these last days – The Enemy using a tactic as old as Creation which he
successfully used against Chavah in the Garden; he even attempted to use it
against our Saviour and King Yeshua in the Wilderness – and which man uses
today and against which The Apostle Kephas (Peter) warned us of in his 2nd Epistle Chapter
3 verses 15-17; even Yeshua warned us of
in – Matt. 24:4 and Matt.
24: 22-25 – against THE TWISTING AND MISREPRESENTATION OF THE WORD OF
YHWH ELOHIM!
The Jews refer to the Christian Church
as the religion introduced by Paul just as The Apostle Kephas (Peter) warned in
2 Pet. 3:15-17 telling us to beware of those
unlearned and unstable ones who by twisting the teachings of Paul will lead us
away in error – BUT BEWARE ALL WHO PRACTICE THIS ABOMINATION BECAUSE IT WILL
LEAD TO YOUR OWN DESTRUCTION! 2 Pet. 3:16
Is it any wonder then that Yeshua, and
His Marriage Covenant to Israel (all 12 tribes and the stranger joining them – Ex. 12:38; Jer. 31:31-34;
Eze. 36:22-27; Eze.
37:16 & 24-25; Rom 11:11-36) are so
despised by The Church?
Is it any wonder that Rome and the
denominations teach that The Church has taken the place of Israel?
Is it any wonder that Rome and the
denominations teach of their “New Covenant” with Jesus was just for the “Church”
and birthed at Shavuot (Pentecost – Acts 2) when
in fact we are told in Jer. 31:31, Eze. 36:26-28 and other places that YHWH Elohim will
be making His “New Covenant” with all 12 Tribes of Israel and NOT THE CHURCH –
and in point of fact the New Covenant has not yet been accomplished and will
not be until Judah and Israel (House of Ephraim) are joined together?
Is it any wonder that even after Yeshua told His
Disciples to teach all that they had learnt and seen Him do (Matt. 28:18-19); or after Judas (Jude) tells us in Jude 1:3 to contend for “The Faith” that was for once
and for all delivered to Elohim’s people (CJB); and even after we
are further severely admonished in the Word to never add of subtract from His
Word (Deut. 4:2; Deut.12:32; Rev. 22:19) we now
have the additional non-Biblical doctrines of The Trinity, The Sunday,
Christmas, Easter, abolition of Lev. 11 diet, Lev. 23 Festivals of YHWH Himself
added to “The Holy Church” on the authority of men and Rome?
Is it any wonder that the Church teach
that Yeshua broke HIS OWN TORAH AND THAT IT IS BIBLICAL AND BLESSED TO DO THE
SAME?
Is it any wonder, as stated above but
repeated for emphasis, that Yeshua warned us so vehemently to beware of those
who SAY THAT HE IS THE MESSIAH, BUT THEY SHALL DECEIVE MANY (Matt. 24:4) and then again in Matt
24:24 HE warns us there shall arise Messiah’s and False Prophets WHO
WILL SHOW GREAT SIGNS AND WONDERS, AND IF POSSIBLE THEY WOULD DECIEVE EVEN THE
VERY ELECT?
On contemplation of this incident I
would pose the following:
- · The spirit of Jesus is alive and well in the Denominations.
- · The spirit of Jesus has it’s own liturgy, worship, Festivals, Calendar, day of rest commemorating it’s deity, Sol invictus -The Unconquered Sun (Dan. 7:25)
- · The spirit of Jesus has it’s holy city, Rome
- · The spirit of Jesus has enmity towards YESHUA OF NAZARET, King of Israel – FROM THE HOUSE OF JUDAH.
- · Yeshua is The Torah; The Torah is Yeshua and to accept YESHUA YOU MUST ACCEPT HIS TORAH (Marriage Covenant) made at Mt Sinai.
- · That the Sinai Covenant is a Covenant unacceptable or even unpalatable to the spirit of Jesus because this spirit has a marriage covenant signed with Rome (Constantine – the first pope).
- · That the spirit of Jesus is in direct opposition to Yeshua HaMashiach.
- · That the spirit of Jesus wants to take the place of Yeshua HaMashiach The King from The Tribe of Judah!
I stated earlier that I had started
this blog a few days ago before the noteworthy coffee incident, with the
knowledge that we will not be deceived by Islam, humanism or anything else – BUT
WE WILL BE DECIEVED BY THOSE WHO CLAIM TO KNOW “JESUS” THE CHRIST – BUT NOT YESHUA KING OF THE TRIBE OF
JUDAH WHO WILL LEAD THE LOST SHEEP INTO ALL TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS!
I end it with this most severe of
warnings:
A house divided cannot stand - because
a divorce will take place:
The only valid reason that Yeshua gave
for a Biblical divorce was in the case of adultery which is of such a serious
nature that Capital Punishment (the penalty of death) can be applied to the
involved parties if the case is proven, yet the Church says that Yeshua
summarily forgave the woman for adultery – NONSENSE HE WAS NOT AUTHORISED TO
UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS ACCORDING TO THE TORAH - YOU WHO TEACH THIS DO NOT KNOW
WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT – PLEASE BE WARNED AND REFER TO THIS LINK!
Idolatry in the spirit is akin to Adultery an offence (SIN) for which a
husband can divorce his wife and for which she can get the death sentence for.
Yeshua says in Matt.
7:21-23 that those who did great signs and wonders supposedly in
Yeshua’s Name (Under His Authority) WERE LAWLESS (WITHOUT TORAH) AND HE KNEW
THEM NOT!
THE CHURCH HAS THE SPIRIT OF LAWLESNESS
– IT HAS ABANDONED THE TORAH, THE LAW OF YHWH WHICH YESHUA KEPT AND GUARDED
WITH HIS OWN LIFE!
WHO DOES THE BIBLE CALL THE LAWLESS
ONE?
THE LAWLESS ONE IS DESCRIBED IN 2 THES. 2:7-9 AS WHO’S COMING IS AFTER THE WORKINGS OF
SATAN!
This has again not been an easy message
to send out and I pray that all who read it would have their eyes opened to the
Wonder, Glory and Majesty of Yeshua our Messiah.
Weight up the evidence presented here
with prayer, the Word and a mind open to His Ruach’s leading.
Shabbat Shalom
Bo’az.

* Idols are the
outward manifestation of worship, adoration of YHWH Elohim through something or
someway HE HAS NOT DEEMED CORRECT – Golden Calf of Ex.
32 is the prime example see - http://theshofarblows-steve.blogspot.com/2017/02/there-are-only-two-seeds.html
·
** Pleroo – See
Romans 15:19 – translated in the KJV, ASV,
Darby, and many other translations “fully preached”; BBE “given
all the good news”; ESV –“fulfilled the ministry of the gospel”;
ISV – “fully proclaimed” – Same word translated as “fulfil”
in Mat. 5:17 is translated in all
Translations to mean “Fully preaching The Gospel” NEVER
MEANING TO FULFIL THE GOSPEL (COMPOSED OF THE LAW AND THE
PROPHETS) AND THUS DOING AWAY WITH IT! See Heb.
4:1-4 which tells us that our Forefathers in The Wilderness had the same
Gospel as we have preached to them!
·
Reading
Mat. 5:17-20 with the word Pleroo translated to
mean that the Law and Prophets have been “Fulfilled” as to be done away with
makes no sense in context: because we are told in verse 17, according to the Denominations, that the Law and the Prophets
have now been done away with – YET YESHUA HIMSELF SAYS IN verse 17 that HE has
not come to destroy the Law or the
Prophets (i.e. the Covenant) – and in fact the Law and Prophets will
remain until the heavens and the earth pass away (they are still here!) AND
WHOEVER WILL BREAK THE SMALLEST JOT OR TITTLE WILL BE HELD ETERNALLY
ACCOUNTABLE!
·
Reading
Mat. 5:20 Yeshua tells us that our righteousness
will have exceed that of the Pharisees and Scribes – WHO KEPT TORAH SO EXACTLY
AS TO BE GUILTY OF ADDING FENCES TO THE TORAH (ORAL TORAH) WHICH THEY LATER
CONSIDERED EQUAL OR ON OCCASIONS ABOVE THE VERY TORAH!
·
Just
to back up Yeshua’s support of the keeping of The Torah as per the Word of Moshe
read Mat. 23:1-5 where Yeshua tells the people
to do what the Teachers of The Law tell them out of the Law – BUT
THE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT FOLLOW THE EXAMPLES OF HOW THESE TEACHERS LIVE THEIR
LIVES AND ADD TO THE WRITTEN LAW!
