Our need for Yahshua our Messiah.

There are many Messianic Jewish/Israelite believers who reject the writings of Rav Shaul, by insinuating that it is anti-Torah. The reason for their antagonism against what Rav Shaul taught comes from misinterpreting most of what he wrote to various groups of Israelites dispersed into the European continent more than 730 years after he was instructed by Yahshua to work amongst them as a minister and witness to the things he learnt from as a Jews, but also from Messiah during a three year training program in Damascus after Yahshua ascended to heaven.  One example being the book of Galatians written specifically for the (Galutyah or) exiles of the house of Israel banished by Elohim because of idolatry.

It is also in the book of Ephesians that Rav Shaul explains how the two houses of Israel have been reconciled through the blood of Messiah into one body, or congregation of YHVH as He promised Abraham many years before in Genesis 12 – 18 and as recorded in Ephesians 2: 11 – 16, as follows ‘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, (15) by abolishing in His flesh the enmity (the punishment due for our sins), which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances (judgments of the Torah), that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, (16) and might reconcile them both in one body (the body of Messiah) to Elohim through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity.’ Yahshua our Messiah the one seed of Abraham through whom YHVH promised Abraham that He will bring a remnant of the Israelites who were scattered into the world because of idolatry, back to the covenant He made with them together with the house of Judah at Mount Sinai, so that He may remarry His bride consisting of both houses of Israel and to establish the kingdom of Elohim over Israel at His return. Without belaboring the point, it was also for this reason that Rav Kepha warned us in 2 Peter 3: 13 – 16, saying: ‘But according to His (Elohim’s) promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. (14) Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, (15) and regard the patience of our Master to be salvation; just as also our beloved brother Shaul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you,  (16) as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things in which some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.’

All of the above is associated with Yahshua the Messiah’s main purpose for coming to earth; something which a small group of Nazarene Israelites only discovered as recently as ten years ago and which negated the missionary work done by Christianity for the past two thousand years and which Messianic Jews are trying to do among the house of Judah since 1973. Whereas the original Passover was to save the first-born Israelites from death during the tenth and last plague which killed all the first-born Egyptians and their animals, when YHVH saved them from exile in Egypt, Messiah’s memorial Passover was to save the first-fruit Israelites called from the house of Israel and those from the house of Judah who remained Torah observant from the second death during the Great White Throne judgment. This discovery is in fact totally in agreement with the prophecy by the Prophet Daniel about the time of the end in Daniel 12: 2 - 4, as follows: “And many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting contempt. (3) And those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. (4) But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase.” Not many realize that YHVH has revealed a major truth to those of us living during these end times. It is also very hard for many learned Bible Teachers and students to after studying the facts about this discovery, even with the required two or three Scriptural witnesses, to agree that YHVH has revealed his truths including the Oneness of Elohim, to those who are supposed to be babes and not to the wise and intelligent, as Yahshua witnessed about the Oneness of Elohim in Luke 10: 21 – 24, saying “I praise Thee, O Father, Adonai of heaven and earth, that Thou didst hide these things from the wise and intelligent and didst reveal them to babes. Yes, Father, for thus it was well pleasing in Thy sight. (22) All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.” (23) ‘And turning to the disciples, He said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see, (24) for I say to you, that many prophets and kings wished to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.”’ The truth about Messiah’s main purpose is so incredible that most people cannot believe it, since it requires that they reject most of what they have been taught about religion in the past.

Many think it is impossible that something so important as the salvation of all mankind have been hidden in plain sight for so long, yet this is in accordance to what YHVH told us through His prophet Daniel about four hundred years before Messiah’s first advent. In addition the churches of the world cannot afford to confirm or accept this truth, since it will lose them all their tithes and offerings that they receive from almost a billion deceived members. It therefore pays them to make sure that these Scriptural truths never come to light. In addition they have Satan’s support in this respect, as witnessed from Revelation 12: 9, as follows: ‘And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.’ This is nonetheless another fact that proves Yahshua existed before the creation of mankind and that He is Elohim, when He told His disciples in Luke 10: 18, saying: “I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning.’  But, despite all the opposition to this newly revealed truth, we need to be mindful that YHVH the Elohim of Israel is in control and these churches (or more specifically Esau under the guise of the Roman Catholic Church) will soon lose their grip on the house of Israel, as YHVH is beginning to bring about the salvation of His people as He promised Moses He will do in Deuteronomy 4: 27 – 31, saying: “And YHVH will scatter you among the peoples, and you shall be left few in number among the nations, where YHVH shall drive you. (28) But from there you will serve gods, the work of man’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell. (29) And there you will seek YHVH your Elohim, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. (30) When you are in distress and all these things have come upon you, in the latter days, you will return to YHVH your Elohim and listen to His voice. (31) For YHVH your Elohim is a compassionate Elohim; He will not fail you nor destroy you nor forget the covenant with your fathers which He swore to them.”  YHVH has during the past 120 years slowly but surely woken a remnant from the house of Israel up to their identity and they have over many years started obeying Elohim’s commands regarding His Sabbaths and Set-apart Days and many are also beginning to keep the food laws given in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14. In addition they started proclaiming the good news of the coming Kingdom of Elohim into the world, as Messiah instructed His original disciples to do. But, a large percentage of returnees still need to discover Messiah’s main purpose, which I believe will change their entire outlook towards especially our Jewish Brothers. What most still have to discover, is that there cannot be a kingdom of Elohim without both houses of Israel being present.

But herein lies a major problem, in that when some discovered they are from the house of Israel during the past ten years and that Yahshua’s main purpose was to bring us back to the faith into which He was born, they question the need for ‘Yeshua’ (the name they use to refer to our Savior and Messiah) in their return to the Torah covenant with Elohim. Some of them immediately started a lengthy conversion process at their local Jewish synagogue, requiring them to actually contradict or deny ‘Yeshua’. I am not talking about Messianic Jews, who are full-blooded Jews that eventually decided to go back to Rabbinic Judaism. No, I am talking about people like us; half-Jews and Israelites from the lost ten tribes who come to this incorrect conclusion, since we can only go back to the covenant we made with YHVH at Mount Sinai through Yahshua. You and I from the lost ten tribes, who have forgotten what sin was, because we were taught the Tanach did not apply to believers in Messiah any longer, because our teachers taught falsely that He came to do away with the strict Laws of YHVH. I am also not talking about young people from the house of Israel who were never really involved in the churches of the world by their own choice after they left their parent’s homes. They have a choice as adults regarding the religion they want to affiliate with and may elect to join the local synagogue and have my full blessing for so doing. But, we who were part of the churches of the world because of our own choice can only get back to the covenant our forefathers made with Elohim, through Yahshua. Our forefathers who travelled to Europe and beyond committed a serious offense against YHVH and even though we know that Israel is our spiritual home, we are too impoverished by the multitude of our sins and spiritual adulteries, to assume that we may return on our own merit. Since we started studying Torah, we have learnt that there is a specific provision made for us; Torah specifically teaches that if an Israelite loses his connection with his inheritance and is too deprived to buy it back, his kinsman may redeem it on his behalf. This is recorded for us in Leviticus 25: 25, as follow: ‘If a fellow countryman of yours become so poor he has to sell part of his property, then his nearest kinsman is to come and buy back what his relative has sold.’ An example of this may be found in the Book of Ruth in the Scriptures. The kinsman redeemer is according to the law of linage the designated person to purchase the property of an impoverished relative so as to keep it in the family.

But the is also in line what all Jews believe the real Messiah (or Moshiach) has to fulfil as prove that He is in fact the Messiah as codified by Rambam: “The Moshiach King will arise and restore the sovereignty of the House of David to its previous status as it was during {David’s} original rule, build the {Beis} HaMikdash and gather in the Diaspora of Israel. Additionally, during his days, all the {Torah’s} laws will be re-implemented as they were previously: people will bring offerings and Shemita, and Yovel years will be practiced according to all of their rules specified in the Torah.” The first point to make is that the Moshiach is required to descend from the House of David. Davidic lineage, like all lineages in Judaism, is established paternally, and therefore the Moshiach is required to be a direct male-to-male descendant of David. The requirement for Davidic descent originates from Hashem’s promise to David that his royal dynasty and right to the throne would extend forever. (2 Samuel 7: 16). While this general description provides some of the details of the requirements, the Rambam codifies that there are in fact two stages to belief that a particular individual is the Moshiach – presumption that an individual is the Moshiach; and complete confirmation thereof: “And if a king from the House of David shall arise, learned in Torah and engaged in mitzvos like his forefather, David, according to {both} the Written Torah and the Oral Torah, and further he:

  • Compels all of Israel to walk in {the ways of the Torah}….

  • Fights wars of Hashem (to restore Jewish sovereignty over the land of Israel and implement Torah law)

Then {such a person} is presumed (although not confirmed) to be the Moshiach. If he does this and is successful and he:

  • Defeats all of the nations that surround him;

  • Rebuilds the {Beis} HaMikdash in its correct place; and

  • Gathers in the Diaspora of Israel then he is certainly the Moshiach.

However, if he is not successful in achieving all of these things or he is killed, then it is known that this person is not the one the Torah promised and he is like all the other proper and upstanding kings of the House of David who died.”

 

The house of Judah has returned to the land of Israel, which they lost temporarily because of mainly the sins of Manasseh who followed his father King Hezekiah up, as king over Judah as is recorded in 2 Kings 21: 16, in this way: ‘Moreover, Manasseh shed very much innocent blood until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; besides his sin with which he made Judah sin, in doing evil in the sight of YHVH.’  Even though Manasseh repented later in his life, his sins were considered so severe and YHVH did not relent from punishing Judah for it, as we read from 2 Kings 23: 26 & 27, as follows: ‘However, YHVH did not turn from the fierceness of His great wrath with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked Him. (27) And YHVH said, “I will remove Judah also from My sight, as I have removed Israel. And I will cast off Jerusalem, this city which I have chosen, and the temple of which I said, ‘My name shall be there.’” But, the house of Israel which lost all their rights because they abandoned Elohim’s covenant altogether, need to have their place in Elohim’s country purchased back, if they want it to be lawfully and rightfully theirs once again. The kinsman redeemer for the lost ten tribes will therefore have to be someone who is even now totally devoted to the covenant with Elohim. As recorded in the correct translation of Hosea 11: 12 (KJV)[1], Judah is in such a position, so the kinsman redeemer would have to come from that tribe. This is how Yahshua our Messiah fits into the puzzle. The Messiah had to be a descendant of David and was therefore also from the tribe of Judah, as witnessed from Jeremiah 33: 15 & 16, in this way: “In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch of David to spring forth; and He shall execute justice and righteousness on the earth.”  We read from Isaiah 49: 6, ‘He says, “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up (from the dead) the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also make You a light of the nations so that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”’ We see consequently that Messiah will be the one responsible to bring back the house of Israel to their inheritance. He is absolutely indispensable to bring us back in repentance (Teshuvah) to the Father.

Daniel prophesied the time frame when Yahshua would arrive on the scene in Daniel 9: 24 - 27, as follows:  “Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make and end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy (set-apart) place. (25) So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress. (26) Then after the sixty two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined. (27) And he will make a firm covenant the with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain (wave sheaf) offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction (the KJV reads:  the consummation, meaning the end time here), one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate.’ The year of Yahshua’s impalement and the Passover, can be confirmed by correlating the prophecy of Daniel 9 with the occurrence described in Ezra 7.  Daniel explained that there would be a time period of ‘seventy weeks’ that is to say 490 prophetic days. We are also told that 69 of these ‘weeks’, i.e. 483 years would run from the time of the decree to rebuilt Jerusalem until the Messiah’s appearance. This decree of King Artexerxes that commences the count of the prophetic ‘weeks’ is recorded in Ezra 7.  Ezra arrived in Jerusalem with the decree in the summer of 457 BCE. Adding 483 years to 457 BCE, brings us to 27 CE. This is the year during which Yahshua was immersed; He was about 30 years of age and His ministry began at the time when Yochanan the Immerser’s came to an end. Most researchers agree that His ministry lasted for 3½ years; He started His ministry in the fall (September/October) of 27 CE and was impaled in the spring of 31 CE. We know that Yahshua was impaled on the 4th day (or the middle) of the week and was resurrected three days and three nights later, at the end of the weekly Sabbath. This means that the Passover of 31 CE, the scripturally established time of His impalement, occurred on a Wednesday of that week. (For interest sake: Yahshua was cut off in the middle of the week, or after a ministry of only 3½ years. It is also believed that He will cut the 7 year period of the Great Tribulation (short) in half, at His return; thereby accounting for the difference of one week (7 years) between the 69 and 70 ‘weeks’ prophesied in Daniel 9.)

Both the British and U.S. Naval Observatories confirm that, that particular Passover occurred on the fourth day of the week (or Wednesday) that year. This agrees with the prophecy in Daniel 9: 27, which predicted that Yahshua would be cut off in the middle of the week. He was in the grave for three full days and three full nights according to His claim in Matthew 12: 40 and as witnessed of His resurrection in Matthew 28: 1 – 6. Titus a Roman general overpowered Jerusalem on the 7th of September 70 CE. His soldiers burned the Temple against his orders, with the result that the gold in the Temple melted down into the temple stones. It took another seven months to remove the melted gold from the destroyed Temple building, bringing us to about the same time in 71 CE, when Yahshua was impaled 40 years earlier.  Titus returned to Rome in the spring of 71 CE. Yahshua predicted the destruction of the Temple in Matthew 24: 1 & 2, and added in Matthew 24: 34, saying: “Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.”  In Scriptural times a generation was said to be 40 years as may be read from Psalm 95: 10 and Hebrews 3: 9 – 10; from the spring of 31 CE to spring of 71 CE is exactly 40 years, which is in total agreement with what Yahshua said. Zechariah even gives us Messiah’s name. The righteous Branch spoken about in Jeremiah 33: 15 refers to the Messiah.  In Zechariah 3: 8 & 9 he tells us that the name of ‘My servant the Branch’ is Joshua and in Zechariah 6: 11 & 12 Joshua is crowned. We read further from verse 13, “Yes, it is He who will build the temple of YHVH (meaning us, the ecclesia of called out believers), and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices.”  Many orthodox Jews are busy coming to the conclusion that Yahshua was indeed the Messiah. The great Kabbalist Rabbi Yitzach Kaduri passed away on January 29, 2005. Just prior to his death, he gave an envelope containing a letter in which he said he will reveal the coming Messiah’s name. However, he told his students to only open the letter a year later, on the date that he died. When they opened the letter they found the name written in his hand, stating the name of Messiah to be Yehoshua. Even so, these Torah keeping Jews did not because of this revelation become Christians, since they understood Messiah’s message to be ‘to the Jew first’, as is confirmed in Romans 1: 16.

 

We who have been called from the Christian churches of the world need to realize that there is a major difference between believing in Yahshua the Messiah and ‘J*e*s*u*s* C* h*r*i*s*t’ of Christianity. The one whom Christianity serve is the one who performed many miracles, but denied Torah, and is therefore not acceptable to Judaism in accordance with Deuteronomy 13: 1 – 3, as follows: “If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, (2) and the sign or the wonder comes true, concerning which he spoke to you, saying ‘Let us go after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve them, (3) you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams: for YHVH your Elohim is testing you to find out if you love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul.” Forty days after Yahshua’s resurrection, when He was about to ascend to heaven and He together with His disciples began climbing the Mount of Olives, His disciples became very excited since they knew that according to Zechariah 14: 4, the kingdom (of Elohim) would come when Messiah’s feet touches the same mountain. That is also why they asked Him at that time in Acts 1: 6 saying, “Master is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” Yahshua replied in verse 7 & 8, saying to them, “It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority; (8) but you shall receive power when the Holy (Set-apart) Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.”

Yahshua’s parable of the prodigal son, who asked His father to give him his portion of his inheritance and then went and squandered it on living it up, pictures Ephraim, who is representative of the lost ten tribes. Judah is pictured by the Father’s eldest son, who remained with Him. Though YHVH had forsaken Ephraim for a time, He says of him in Jeremiah 31: 10, ‘Hear the word of YHVH, O nations, and declare in the coastlands afar off, and say, “He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.’”  We see in John 10: 11, Yahshua identified Himself to the Jews as being the ‘good shepherd’. Continuing in verse 16 of John 10, He also said to them: “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.” Yahshua was referring here to Ezekiel’s prophesy in Ezekiel 34: 23, as follows: “Then I will set over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will feed them; he will feed them himself and be their shepherd.” Yahshua never denied that He had come to restore the kingdom of Israel. Far from it! In fact all He did was to turn His disciples’ focus on finding the subjects of the house of Israel, as we read from Matthew 10: 5 & 6, saying: “Do not go in the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter any city of the Samaritans; (6) but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”  Yahshua also said to the Canaanite woman who asked Him to show mercy to her demon possessed daughter in Matthew 15: 24 “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”  In fact Yahshua was sending His disciples out to draw Ephraim back to the covenant that they forsook, as He was the Kinsman Redeemer for the prodigal tribes.  The leaders in Yahshua’s community laid down four ground-rules in Acts 15 for new believers to follow at the beginning of their walk in the way of Elohim. The basics of Kashrut and niddah and the forsaking of idolatry and immorality were the first requirements for new believers. These are the things which today’s Messianic Jews/Israelites and like-minded believers (such as members of the Churches of G-d and the Assemblies of YHVH) do not even keep, let alone the fact that they ignore the very next qualifying statement in Acts 15: 21, in this way:  “For Moses from ancient generations has in every city those who preach him, since he is read in the synagogues every Sabbath.” This is saying that repentance to full Torah observance is a process, where initially we follow the basic four ground-rules and then as we learn about the Sabbath and Feast Days of Elohim, the wearing of tzitzit and circumcision, we will eventually grow to a point where we are fully Torah observant, if we attend a local synagogue or a fellowship like ours.

According to Ezekiel 37, it will be YHVH who will ensure that once the fullness of the Gentiles (who are called by {YHVH}’s name – meaning members of the lost ten tribes who used to believe they are nothing but Gentiles, plus a number of real Gentiles) have come out of the world and started keeping the Sabbath and the annual Feast Days of Elohim, eating only kosher foods and studying and obeying Torah, so much so that our conduct make our Jewish brothers jealous and the two houses of Israel, will once more become one in His hand. Yahshua’s death was to redeem the first-born children from the house of Israel and eventually also for the rest of mankind, after the second resurrection during the Great White Throne judgment period, but also to be able to remarry His bride, whom He divorced because of Idolatry. We read accordingly from Roman 7: 1 – 4, in this way: ‘Or do you not know, brethren (for I am speaking to those who know the law of divorce and remarriage), that the law has jurisdiction over a person as long as he lives? (2) For the married woman is bound by law to her husband while he is living; but if her husband dies, she is released from the law concerning the husband. (3) So then if, while her husband is living, she is joined to another man, she shall be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress, though she is joined to another man. (4) Therefore, my brethren, you also were made to die to the Law through the body of Messiah, that you might be joined to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, that we might bear fruit for Elohim.’ That was why Yahshua’s dying words on the stake was ‘Kallah’ meaning ‘it is finished’ but also ‘My bride’ as recorded in John 19: 30. When He died He confirmed that because we died in immersion in Him and He died for us, He will now be able to remarry us, His ecclesia of called out believers, who will be resurrected or changed, at His return to earth.

When we come to YHVH through the only door available to us, we should not be reluctant to confess Him to those who ask us about the hope that is within us, through Yahshua our Messiah. It is for this reason that Yahshua told His disciples in Matthew 10: 32 & 33, saying: “Everyone therefore who shall confess Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven. (33) But whoever shall deny Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.”  No matter who or what we believe Yahshua is, we need to be aware of what Rav Shaul wrote about Him in Philippians 2: 5 – 11, in this way: ‘Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Messiah Yahshua, (6) who, although He existed in the form of Elohim, did not regard equality with Elohim a thing to be grasped, (7) but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. (8) And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. (9) Therefore also Elohim highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, (10) that at the name of Yahshua EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, of those who are in heaven, and on earth and under the earth, (11) and that every tongue should confess that Yahshua Messiah is Master, to the glory of Elohim the Father.’ This is quoted from Isaiah 45: 23, where we read: “I have sworn by Myself, the word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness and will not turn back, that to Me every knee will bow, ever tongue will swear allegiance.”  We continue to read from verse 24 of Isaiah 45, “They will say of Me, ‘Only in YHVH are righteousness and strength.’ Men will come to Him, and all who were angry at Him shall be put to shame.”  It is important for those of us who are returning from the lost ten tribes, not to deny our Master and Savior, even if we are compelled through circumstances to join the synagogue, which is the last thing that I will recommend, as we are already following in the way of Elohim, shown us by Yahshua our Savior.

We see from first Timothy 6: 16 that no one has ever seen or can see YHVH, as He is a Spirit Being. Yahshua our Messiah; the visible image of the invisible Elohim (as per Colossians 1: 15) is the only way in which we as flesh and blood human beings can relate to the Father. It is for that reason that Yahshua the Messiah will rule us during the millennium and will remain with us until after the great white throne judgment, as witnessed in first Corinthians 15: 22 – 28, in this way: ‘For as in Adam all die, so also in Messiah all shall be made alive (as spiritual children of Elohim). (23) But each in his own order: Messiah the first fruit(s), after that those who are Messiah’s at His coming, (24) then comes the end (ones), when He delivers up the kingdom to the Elohim and Father, when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power. (25) For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. (26) The last enemy that will be abolished is death (as may be read from Revelation 20: 14, when there will not be any physical human beings prone to death any longer). (27) For HE HAS PUT ALL THINGS IN SUBJECTION UNDER HIS FEET. But when He says, “All things are put in subjection,” it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him. (28) And when all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, that Elohim may be all in all.’ Yes, Yahshua the visible image of the invisible Elohim will be around until all human beings have been changed into spirit-born children of Elohim.

Even though the Scriptures do not say so directly, but from reading Revelation 22: 1 – 4, it appears as if Yahshua the lamb of Elohim, will go back into the Father, from where He came (John 1: 18), as follows: ‘And he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne (singular) of Elohim and the Lamb (The footnote against the words the Lamb in the NASB reads: or the Lamb), (2) In the middle of its street. And on either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. (3) And there shall no longer be any curse; and the throne of Elohim and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His bond-servants shall serve Him; (4) and they shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.’

We need to be very careful not to follow those who misinterpret Rav Shaul’s writings and deny or contradict what our Master Yahshua Messiah taught and did whilst He was on earth. You and I from the lost ten tribes, who have been granted Elohim’s mercy to return to the covenant that our forefathers made with YHVH at Mount Sinai, with our Jewish Brothers, can only do so in and through the blood of Messiah – the blood by which the Renewed Covenant is busy being ratified in the hearts of returning members of the house of Israel; something that will only be completed when Messiah returns to remarry His bride consisting of both the house of Israel and the house of Judah. Think about it!

 

[1] Hosea 11: 12, ‘Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with Elohim and is faithful with the saints.’ So we see that even the Bible Translators were and are trying to put the house of Judah in a bad light, but in the end the truth will prevail. It was similar with Hitler who was looking for the final solution to the world’s problems and they were right under his nose, but he elected to kill them instead of making use of Elohim’s chosen people’s know how.
