281 Are you concerned with sins i Israel

Are you concerned with the sins committed in Israel?

I am sure that if most of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob read this heading, they will immediately believe that I am talking about the small nation in the Middle East known as Israel, but will have no idea that I am in fact talking about the most of the people in and descended from Europe, including the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and Southern Africa. Very few people today know that there are at most only three tribes of the ancient nation of Israel ruled by King David present in the land of Israel, namely the tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi, also known in the Scriptures as the house of Judah. Very few realize that most of the Christian descendants of the European and English speaking nations are in fact the lost ten tribes of Israelwho were scattered throughout the nations of the world, because of idolatry and are to be found mainly in the western world today.

In addition, our people have become so concerned with only themselves and their little lives that nobody cares what anybody else is doing in their surrounding areas, as long as it does not interfere with them. Very few people are also aware that YHVH the Elohim of Israel who created everything in existence has from the very beginning set in place laws of cause and effect, which if obeyed result in blessings, but if disobeyed result in an imbalance in the entire world causing major problems for the perpetrators, but also for the rest of mankind. An example of this may be seen in the many failed marriages in the western world. Marriage is an institution which helps us to build character, like Elohim’s character – which will last into eternity. It is therefore incumbent upon every married person to ensure the wellbeing and happiness of their partners. YHVH ordained marriage and intended it to last until one of the partners die. He ordained marriage and sex – in that order. Adultery is a violation of the marriage covenant by willfully participating in adulterous actions with someone other than your spouse. YHVH created sex, because He wants us to enjoy stable sexual relationships within marriage. Because people who want to leave their partners are usually only concerned about themselves, they do not always consider the real cost of divorce to anybody else. Broken homes are very costly to human society and the majority of economically disadvantaged people are from broken homes. Homes headed by single parents are a leading factor in subsequent criminal activity. To this must be added the cost of legal fees, the reduction in productivity and income of divorced parents. It also results in the frequent loss of homes and other belongings. Divorce often results in long custody battles with devastating effects on the children. Society suffers because we have neglected to treat our partners the way that YHVH intended from the beginning. Most human beings desire and need the benefits that come from a stable marriage, but do not always spend the time required to ensure their marriages last. We need to return to the way that Elohim intended and give marriage the respect that it deserves. Children whose parents are happily married are blessed with the ideal environment to grow up in and produce emotionally stable leaders for future generations.

There are many warnings against adultery in the Scriptures. One such warning appears in Proverbs 6: 32, as follows: ‘The one who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense; he who does destroys his soul.’ We who are called should also be mindful of what Rav Shaul said about immoral sexual relationships in 1 Corinthians 6: 9 – 18, as follows: ‘Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of Elohim? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, (10) nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of Elohim. (11) And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Master Yahshua Messiah, and in the Spirit of Elohim. (12) All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything. (Example: We may drink wine and even whiskey, but we should never get drunk) (13) Food is for the stomach, and the stomach is for food; but Elohim will do away with both of them. (We should also not be gluttons – even during the Feast) Yet the body is not for immorality, but for the Master; and the Master is for the body. (14) Now Elohim has not only raised the Master, but will also raise us up through His power. (15) Do you not know that your bodies are members of Messiah? Shall I then take away the members of Messiah and make them members of a harlot? May it never be! (16) Or do you not know that the one who joins himself to a harlot is one body with her? For He says, “THE TWO WILL BECOME ONE FLESH.”(17) But the one who joins himself to the Master is one spirit with Him. (18) Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.’

Even though most of the evils being committed in the world are also being done in the modern state of Israel in the Middle East, most of the abominations that are being committed in the western world have been prophesied to happen in a prophecy by Ezekiel in Ezekiel 22: 23 – 29, saying: ‘And the word of YHVH came to me saying, “Son of man, say to her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed or rained on in the day of indignation.’ (25) There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst, like a roaring lion tearing the prey. They have devoured lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in the midst of her. (26) Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. (27) Her princes within her are like wolves tearing the prey, by shedding blood and destroying lives in order to get dishonest gain. (28) And her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says YHVH Elohim,’ when YHVH has not spoken. (29) The people of the land have practiced oppression and committed robbery, and they have wronged the poor and needy and have oppressed the sojourner without justice.” We see from verses 18 – 20 of Ezekiel 22 that YHVH is talking specifically to the house of Israel, as follows: “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are the dross of silver. (19) Therefore, thus says YHVH Elohim, ‘Because all of you become dross, therefore, behold, I am going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. (20) As they gather silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into the furnace to blow fire on it in order to melt it, so I shall gather you in My anger and in My wrath, and I shall lay you there and melt you.’”’ The question is: Are we as called out believers in YHVH and His Torah, in the least concerned about what is happening in the world around us? Do we mourn when we see the sins being committed by so-called religious people around us? Are we concerned about the children of divorced parents who suffer as a result of the sins of their parents or those who have been deceived to continue to believe the lies their parents keep telling them about Xmas and birthdays.

Let’s consider the words of the book of Joel and understand that what is presently happening in most Israelite countries has been foretold many years ago by Elohim’s prophets and is causing all a lot of grief. We read from Joel 1: 1 – 20, as follows: “The word of YHVH that came to Joel, the son of Pethuel: (2)Hear this, O elders, and listen, all inhabitants of the land. Has anything like this happened in your days? (3)Tell your sons about it, and let your sons tell their sons, and their sons the next generation. (4)What the gnawing locust has left, the swarming locust has eaten; and what the swarming locust has left, the creeping locust has eaten; and what the creeping locust has left, the stripping locust has eaten. (5)Awake, drunkards, and weep; and wail, all you wine drinkers, on account of the sweet wine that is cut off from your mouth. (6)For a nation has invaded my land, mighty and without number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and it has the fangs of a lioness. (7)It has made my vine a waste and my fig tree splinters. It has stripped them bare and cast them away; their branches have become white. (8)Wail like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the bridegroom of her youth. (9)The grain offering and the drink offering are cut off from the house of YHVH. The priests mourn, the ministers of YHVH. (10)The field is ruined, the land mourns; for the grain is ruined, the new wine dries up, fresh oil fails. (11)Be ashamed, O farmers, wail, O vinedressers, for the wheat and the barley; because the harvest of the field is destroyed. (12)The vine dries up and the fig tree fails; the pomegranate, the palm also, and the apple tree, all the trees of the field dry up. Indeed, rejoicing dries up from the sons of men. (13)Gird yourselves with sackcloth and lament O priests; wail, O ministers of the altar! Come, spend the night in sackcloth O minister of my Elohim, for the grain offering and the drink offering are withheld from the house of your Elohim. (14)Consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly; gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of YHVH your Elohim, and cry out to YHVH. (15)Alas for the day! For the day of YHVH is near, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty. (16)Has not food been cut off before our eyes, gladness and joy from the house of our Elohim?(17)The seeds shrivel under their clods; the storehouses are desolate, the barns are torn down, for the grain is dried up. (18)How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle wander aimlessly because there is no pasture for them; even the flocks of sheep suffer. (19)To You, O YHVH, I cry; for fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness and the flame has burned up all the trees of the field. (20)Even the beasts of the field pant for You; for the water brooks are dried up and fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.”

Instead of our don’t care attitudewe need to become more concerned about what we do and how we live, but we also need to sigh and cry for the atrocities being committed in the Israelite countries by our own people as YHVH warned us from the house of Israel about it by Ezekiel the prophet in Ezekiel 9: 4 – 10, as follows: ‘And YHVH said to him, “Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst.” (5) But to the others He said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him and strike; do not let your eye have pity, and do not spare. (6) Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary.” So they started with the elders who were before the temple. (7) And He said to them, “Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” Thus they went out and struck down the people in the city. (8) Then it came about as they were striking and I alone was left, that I fell on my face and cried out saying, “Alas, YHVH Elohim! Art Thou destroying the whole remnant of Israel by pouring out Thy wrath on Jerusalem?” (9) Then He said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is full of perversion; for they say, “YHVH has forsaken the land, and YHVH does not see!” (10) But as for Me, My eye will have no pity nor shall I spare, but I shall bring their conduct upon their heads.”’Yes, YHVH is at this time marking those of us who are deeply concerned about the things happening in the world around us, including people who destroy children’s lives through overdrinking and divorce and those who continue to deceive innocent children through Xmas trees and beautifully colored sparkling lights, using Satan’s tactic of tempting people through the lust of the eyes, thereby perpetuating the lies their parents tell them from one generation of Israelites to the next. The problem is that most in Churchianity have become so blind over the last two centuries, that they do not even know they are committing sin – instead most believe they are worshipping ‘G-d’ and keeping feast days in his honor. The major problem being that Churchianity have been deceived by Satan that Messiah, the one they call C*h*r*i*s*t*, has abolished Torah for them. As a result they are totally unaware of Elohim’s command to us in Deuteronomy 12: 29 – 32, saying: “When YHVH your Elohim cuts off before you the nations which you are going in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land, (30) beware that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations serve their gods, that I also may do likewise?’ (31) You shall not behave thus toward YHVH your Elohim, for every abominable act which YHVH hates they have done for their gods; for they even burn their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods. (32) Whatever I command you, you shall be careful to do; you shall not add to nor take away from it.” You might say: ‘But modern day Israelites do not burn their children to their gods’. If you believe that to be true, ask yourself: How many unborn aborted Israelite children have been burned since most Israelite nations introduced abortion on demand in their countries? Yes, they do not believe they do it to their gods, but similarly do they not believe a Xmas tree to be a god. But, how does YHVH view their actions?

Most members of the lost ten tribes of Israel who were scattered throughout the world do not have an inkling that they are in fact part of the people for whom at least 90% of the prophecies in the Tanach (which they refer to as the ‘Old Testament’) were written. A major role player in the fact that people do not understand the Scriptures is that Satan is continually blinding the minds of unbelievers, as witnessed in 2 Corinthians 4: 3 & 4, in this way: ‘And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, (4) in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving; that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Messiah, who is the image of Elohim.’ However, we see from verse 1 & 2 and 5 & 6 of 2 Corinthians 4, that we should not lose heart but continue to shine as lights in this dying world, as follows: ‘Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart, (2) but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of Elohim, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of Elohim. (5) For we do not preach ourselves but Messiah Yahshua as Master, and ourselves as your bond-servants for Yahshua’s sake. (6) For Elohim, who said, “Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of Elohim in the face of Messiah.’ Yes, by keeping Elohim’s Sabbaths and not those of the world and by not eating the unclean foods that they partake of at during their festivals and other times of the year, we are a manifestation of truth to every man’s conscience in the sight of Elohim, be it only for a very short time. The truth is that by keeping away from these pagan practices, we somehow are doing Elohim’s work to believe in the One whom He sent and witnessing against the things people are doing in the world. In this way YHVH might eventually call some who are now distant to come near to Him. In addition, when the great tribulation commence and the tire hits the road, many of those to whom Elohim’s people witnessed to in the past, will search them out to have Elohim’s truth explained to them. These are the ones spoken about in Revelation 7: 9 – 14 as the great multitude, who will eventually also come to repentance, but because they did not follow the way of Elohimwhen He called them at first, they will not be part of the 144,000 believers who will become kings and priests under Yahshua.

Yes, we should therefore not lose heart but continue to tell people about the coming Kingdom of Elohim, as we have witnessed in 2 Corinthians 4: 13 – 18, as follows: ‘But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I BELIEVED, THEREFORE I SPOKE,” we also believe, therefore we also speak; (14) knowing that He who raised the Master Yahshua will raise us also with Yahshua and will present us with you. (15) For all things are for your sakes, that the grace which is spreading to more and more people may cause the giving of thanks to abound to the glory of Elohim. (16) Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. (17) For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, (18) while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.’ We need to look at things beyond this world, which is like us only temporary. We should look at the world to come and the city towards which our father Abraham looked. We see witnessed from 2 Corinthians 5: 1 – 4, that for those of us who received Elohim’s Set-apart Spirit at immersion, should look forward to a time when after we die, we will be resurrected as Spiritual children of Elohim, in this way: ‘For we know that if the earthly tent which is our house is torn down, we have a building from Elohim, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (2) For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven; (3) inasmuch as we, having put it on, shall not be found naked. (4) For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed, but to be clothed, in order that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.’ When Adam and Eve sinned YHVH took away the light which was their covering prior to sinning and covered them in skin, but for those who obey Elohim’s Torah and hold to the testimony of Messiah, He will again dress us in His Shekinah glory or light after we are resurrected to life after Messiah’s return. A second witness to this comes from 1 John 3: 2, as follows: ‘Beloved, now we are children of Elohim, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.’

We should at this time show the Israelites amongst whom we live, how to live as people who made YHVH King in our lives, as Rav Shaul tells us in 2 Corinthians 5: 18 - 21, saying: ‘Now all these things are from Elohim, who reconciled us to Himself through Messiah, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, (19) namely, that Elohim was in Messiah reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. (20) Therefore, we are ambassadors for Messiah, as though Elohim were entreating through us; we beg you on behalf of Messiah, be reconciled to Elohim. (21) He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of Elohim in Him.’ Yes, as ambassadors of the coming Kingdom of Elohim, we need to show our Israelite brothers how to live in obedience to Elohim’s commandments. As Nazarene Israelites Yahshua came to bring us back to our Father, but also the faith that our Jewish Brothers preserved for us. As those whom Elohim has called to come out of the false religions of the world we have been called for a very special purpose, as YHVH also told the prophet Ezekiel in Ezekiel 3: 4 – 21, saying: ‘Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them. (5) For you are not being sent to a people of unintelligible speech or difficult language, but to the house of Israel, (6) nor to many peoples of unintelligible speech or difficult language, whose words you cannot understand. But I have sent you to them who should listen to you; (7) yet the house of Israel will not be willing to listen to you, since they are not willing to listen to Me. Surely the whole house of Israel is stubborn and obstinate. (8) Behold, I have made your face as hard as their faces, and your forehead as hard as their foreheads. (9) Like emery harder than flint I have made your forehead. Do not be afraid of them or be dismayed before them, though they are a rebellious house. (10) Moreover, He said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all My words which I shall speak to you, and listen closely. (11) And go to the exiles, to the sons of your people, and speak to them and tell them, whether they listen or not, “Thus says YHVH Elohim.” (12) Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard a great rumbling sound behind me, “Blessed be the glory of YHVH in His place.” (13) And I heard the sound of the wings of the living beings touching one another, and the sound of the wheels beside them, even a great rumbling sound. (14) So the Spirit lifted me up and took me away; and I went embittered in the rage of my spirit, and the hand of YHVH was strong on me. (15) Then I came to the exiles who lived beside the river Chebar at Tel-abib, and I sat there seven days where they were living, causing consternation among them. (16) Now it came about at the end of seven days that the word of YHVH came to me, saying, (17) “Son of man, I have appointed you a watchman to the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from My mouth, warn them from Me.” (18) When I say to the wicked, “You shall surely die”; and you do not warn him or speak out to warn the wicked from his wicked way that he may live, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. (19) Yet if you have warned the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered yourself. (20) Again, when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I place an obstacle before him, he shall die; since you have not warned him, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood I will require at your hand. (21) However, if you have warned the righteous man that the righteous should not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live because he took warning; and you have delivered yourself.’ We as Elohim’s watchmen have to remain ever vigilant to warn Elohim’s people, whether they are good or wicked. If we do not, we might perish with them – it is therefore very important that we continue to warn especially fellow Israelites, as Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 58: 1, saying: “Cry loudly, do not hold back; raise your voice like a trumpet, and declare to My people their transgression, and to the house of Jacob their sins.”

We who are alive at the end time are truly Jacob’s heel who will suffer the worst persecution ever by Satan and his agents, as witnessed in Ezekiel 7: 1 - 4 in this way: ‘Moreover, the word of YHVH came to me saying, (2) “And you, son of man, thus says YHVH Elohim to the land of Israel, ‘An end! The end is coming on the four corners of the land. (3) Now the end is upon you, and I shall send My anger against you; I shall judge you according to your ways, and I shall bring all your abominations upon you. (4) For My eye will have no pity on you, nor shall I spare you, but I shall bring your ways upon you, and your abominations will be among you; then you will know that I am YHVH!’”We as the descendants of the house of Israel are much more likely to follow pagan customs than Israelites from the house of Judah. It was for this reason that Jeremiah warned in Jeremiah 10: 1 - 5, saying: ‘Hear the word which YHVH speaks to you, O house of Israel. (2) Thus says YHVH, “Do not learn the way of the nations, and do not be terrified by the signs of the heavens although the nations are terrified by them; (3) For the customs of the peoples are delusion; because it is wood cut from the forest, the work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool. (4) They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers so that it will not totter (move). (5) Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field are they, and they cannot speak; they must be carried, because they cannot walk! Do not fear them, for they can do no harm, nor can they do any good.’ Now some might argue that this has nothing to do with the custom of putting a Xmas tree in your house and even if it is not so, it is definitely warning us not to follow the customs of the pagan nations amongst whom we were scattered because of the idolatry of the king who ruled the house of Israel after King Solomon, namely Jeroboam.

How long are the people from the house of Israel going to continue in their rebellion against YHVH and His anointed? Even amongst those of us whom YHVH is currently calling out of the religions of the world, there are some who know that they are from the lost ten tribes and that the house of Judah remained faithful to YHVH, but because of an inherent jealousy or downright anti-Semitic attitude, refuse to follow the calendar and kosher laws that the Jews preserved for us since their return from captivity 2,500 years ago when Ezra and Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem to rebuild the walls of the city and the Temple. The point is, if an Israelite or Gentile wants to become a Nazarene Jew/Israelite he or she must attach him/herself to the tree of Israel through Abraham, to be truly considered a Nazarene according to Jewish Halacha. Yes, to return to YHVH, we have to become part of the commonwealth of Israel, whose faith was always Jewish, as we read from Ephesians 2: 11 – 14, in this way: ‘Therefore remember, that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “Un-circumcision” by the so-called ‘Circumcision,’ which is performed in the flesh by human hands—(12) remember that you were at that time separate from Messiah, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without Elohim in the world. (13) But now in Messiah Yahshua you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Messiah. (14) For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one, and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall.’ Yes, we have to go back to Judaism, but we cannot just go to the synagogue and announce that we are back. No, we have to go back to the Father and Brother Judah through the blood of Messiah, by being immersed and taught the way, before we can finally become one in the hand of YHVH, when Messiah returns. Yahshua never renounced the Jewish faith of the human family into which He was born. He did not come to start a new religion called Christianity, but He came specifically to bring the lost sheep of the house of Israel back to their original faith in YHVH. He came as the Son of Man to be our kinsman redeemer, paying for our sins so that we may once again return to the Father, as He also confirmed in Matthew 15: 24, saying: “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.’

How long are we going to contradict the Master who redeemed us? How long are we going to believe false doctrines which are nowhere to be found in the Scriptures? Even though YHVH started calling people out of the religions of the world since the early 20th century, the great falling away spoken about by Rav Shaul in first Timothy 4: 1 – 5, has already started during the mid-1990’s and is continuing at this time, as follows: ‘But the spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, (2) by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron, (3) men who forbid marriage (like the Roman Catholic clergy) and advocate abstaining from foods (like meat on Fridays), which Elohim has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth. (4) For everything created by Elohim is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with gratitude; (5) for it is sanctified by means of the word of Elohim and prayer.’ People have become so thick skinned that they do not even know they believe a lie and the first thing that those who object to eating kosher refer to is verse 4 quoted here, however, the point is fortunately clarified in verse 5, where it tells us clearly that YHVH has long ago Set-apart or sanctified food suitable for human consumption in both Leviticus 11, and Deuteronomy 14. But, what does it mean to fall away from the faith? Which faith? There is only one faith according to Ephesians 4: 5, which was once delivered to the saints – the called out ones as per Jude 3, in this way: ‘Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.’ Continuing in verse 4, we read Jude’s warning, as follows: ‘For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our Elohim into licentiousness and deny (from the Greek word ‘arneomai’also meaning to contradict) our only Teacher and Master, Yahshua Messiah.’

If we want to make it into the Kingdom of Elohim, we need to continue in that faith until Messiah’s return or when we die, as we read in Revelation 14: 12: ‘Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of Elohim and their faith in Yahshua.’ Yes, Torah cannot be removed from faith as is confirmed in Psalm 119: 29 & 30, ‘Remove the false way from me, and graciously grant me Thy Law (Torah). (30) I have chosen the faithful way; I have placed Thine ordinances before me.’ Those who teach against Torah should always be reminded of Yahshua’s own words in John 5: 43 – 47, where He says: “I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another shall come in his own name, you will receive him. (A case in point is Christianity’s belief in going to heaven at death – despite Yahshua clearly saying in John 3: 13, ‘no one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven, even the Son of Man’, people still hold onto the myth sold to them by Satan.) (44) How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another, and you do not seek the glory that is from the one and only Elohim? (45) Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father, the one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have set your hope. (46) For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote of Me. (47) But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?’ Those who say they believe in J*e*s*u*s* and reject Elohim’s Torah penned for us by Moses are deceiving themselves and are cursing themselves and their children. But they are doing so without knowing, since they are blinded at this time. However, that does not give us as Elohim’s watchmen the right to sit on our haunches doing nothing until the Kingdom of Elohim comes! We have to absolutely be very serious to help those people whom YHVH is still planning to call from the lost sheep of the lost ten tribes, by teaching them about the faith of our fathers in the faith. That entails that we help them understand that they have to start obeying Elohim’s Torah teachings and accept the house of Judah as Elohim’s Lawgiver and give honor to Elohim’s set-apart names, by keeping Elohim’s set-apart days and kosher laws according to the teachings ordained to the Levites among the house of Judah. It was for this reason that Rav Shaul taught the congregation is Rome in Romans 10: 12 – 15, saying: ‘For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Master is Adonai of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; (13) for “WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF YHVH WILL BE SAVED.” (Rav Shaul quoted these words from Joel 2: 32) (14) How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? (15) How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD TIDINGS!”This is why we have our job function cut out for us – we should all learn and prepare to teach the Israelites hidden amongst our people about the coming kingdom of Elohim, as soon as we are able. We need not all be qualified teachers before we start doing so, since we have good teachers to refer those who have difficult questions about our faith to go to.

Many today claim they are returning to their Hebrew Roots, but what are Hebrew Roots other than Judaism! Yes, we are all part of the other flock of sheep spoken about by Yahshua in John 10: 16, saying: ‘And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they shall hear My voice; and they shall become one flock with one shepherd.’ It should at this time be part of our hopes and dreams to ultimately be united with Judah in the hand of YHVH one day soon when Messiah returns, but in the meantime we should be the light of the world. Think about it!
