LIFE & DEATH

What does it mean when he says he is the El of the living, when clearly Abraham, Isaac and Jacob had been dead for years?

Mat 22: v31. But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by Yahweh, saying,

V32. I am the El of Abraham, and the El of Isaac, and the El of Jacob? Yahweh is not the El of the dead, but of the living.

What does our Creator mean when he talks about death being like sleeping?

Jhn 11: v11. These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

V12. Then said his disciples, Messiah, if he sleep, he shall do well.

V13. Howbeit our Creator spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

V14. Then said Messiah unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

Lazarus back to life after 4 days!

What does he mean when our Creator says it's appointed for men to die once, so did Lazarus die twice? Can the scriptures contradict themselves? Yahweh forbid!

Heb 9: v27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

Man’s body is formed from the dust of the ground and the breath of life.   

Gen 2: v7. And Yahweh our Creator formed man [of] the dust of the ground (symbolic of the flesh body including the brain) and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life (pneuma=spiritual=mind); and man became a living soul.

James confirms that any body without the spirit is dead. 

Jas 2: v26. For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. The spiritual assembly or body is also dead without the Holy Spirit!

When we die, our physical body returns to the earth or to dust and our mind or spirit returns to the Father.

Ecc 12: v7. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto Yahweh who gave it.

Paul says there's a physical body and a spiritual body.

1Co 15: v40. [There are] also celestial (heavenly bodies like angels) bodies, and bodies terrestrial (earthly bodies like humans): but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

1Co 15: v44. It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body (human), and there is a spiritual body (angel).

Thus, using the above scriptures explains why he says Lazarus “sleeps”. Though he is physically dead, his spirit or mind is still alive, but is sleeping with the Father. This also explains why he says he's the El of the living. Even though Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob have been physically dead for many years, their mind or spirit is still alive with the Father with no thoughts, dreams, praise, or knowledge.

The Father is the source of all life and Holy Spirit which flows through our Creator to the seen and unseen world.

1Ti 6: v16. Who only hath immortality (Son YahwehShua) dwelling in the light (Yahweh the Father) which no man (or angels) can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honour and power everlasting. Amen.

So, we are only awake if our spirit or mind is placed into a physical body or a spiritual body at the will of the Father being carried out by the Son.   

It's clear that a spiritual body is much more powerful than a physical body. Satan the adversary is in a spiritual body and was able to deceive a third of the angels to follow him as fallen angels, but he deceives all humans.   

Rev 12: v3. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

V4. And his tail drew the third part of the stars (stars are angels: Rev 1: v20. The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.)  of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

Rev 12: v9. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world (all humans): he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

So your mind is something in this human body that our Creator is working with at the direction of the Father. If you repent daily, are baptized in the singular name of the Father and Son (YahwehShua) and overcome the adversary (allows the growth in Messiah in you) you could be one of the 144 thousand Saints and receive a spiritual body when our Creator returns at the 7th Trump.

Mat 28: v19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name (singular name, not a title such as lord, g-d, JC are not in the original scriptures, names are transliterated to preserve the phonics or how a name sounds, Yahweh in Paleo Hebrew is the tetragrammaton which sounds like Yahweh in English. Yahweh was in the original scriptures nearly 7000 times!) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit (most scholars feel the Holy Spirit was added and not in the original scriptures, the singular name YahwehShua contains the name of the Father=Yahweh and the Son=YahwehShua Shua=Savior):

Rev 3: v7. And to the angel of the church (one of the seven assemblies or small flocks around the world that are being perfected) in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

V8. I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name (YahwehShua).

V9. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

V10. Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour (24 hr/1000 yrs= 1 hr/ 42 yrs switch mo. for yr = 1hr /42 mo.  Hour of testing=last 3 & 1/2 yrs prior to 7th Trump) of temptation (testing), which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

V11. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

V12. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my Father Yahweh, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my El Yahweh, and the name of the city of my El, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my Father Yahweh: and [I will write upon him] my new name.

Gal 4: v19. My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until YahwehShua Messiah be formed in you.

1Th 4: v16. For YahwehShua himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the Trump (7th) of Yahweh: and the dead in YahwehShua Messiah shall rise first:

1Co 15: v52. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last Trump (7th): for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

So how do we reconcile the scriptures regarding that it's appointed for all men to die once and then the judgment? Did Lazarus not die twice? Are the scriptures contradicting? Yahweh forbid!  

What our Creator is saying is that until he is done shaping your mind in this physical body he doesn’t care if you’ve been dead 4 days like Lazarus or 4000 years. Or if he wants to extend the physical life of anyone for his own purposes! It's likely Moses and Elijah will have their physical life extended after thousands of years to be the two physical witnesses to finish the ministry of Messiah the last 3 and 1/2 years prior to the 7th Trump!

What? Are you crazy?

Rev 11: v3. And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days (3 & 1/2 yrs of 30 day months where the new moon was not seen likely from smoke from all the destruction), clothed in sackcloth (not pretty like our Creator {Isa 53: v2. 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}).

V4. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the El of the earth.

V5. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

V6. These have power to shut heaven, that it not rain (sounds like Elijah {Jas 5: v17. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months}) not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood (sounds like Moses {Exo 7: v19. And Yahweh spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt, upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and [that] there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in [vessels of] wood, and in [vessels of] stone}), and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

V7. And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them (YahwehShua has appointed their final physical death!).

V8. And their dead bodies [shall lie] in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Messiah was impaled (Jerusalem).

V9. And they of the people and kindreds and tongues (different languages) and nations (gentile nonbelivers all over the world will think the human false messiah calling himself the son of Yahweh is real) shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

V10. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another (they will believe the human false Messiah who is beautiful and who will also be on the scene the 3 and 1/2 years, as well as prior to the 7th Trump. He will convince everyone that the 2 Witnesses are two demons causing the curses. Isa 66: v5. Hear the word of Yahweh, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let Yahweh be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.); because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

V11. And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from Yahweh the Father through YahwehShua entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

V12. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven (spiritual bodies at the 7th Trump) in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

The final day of your physical death is not known by humans. It is appointed by your Creator YahwehShua. That's why the final day of your final physical death is better than your day at birth because he's done shaping your mind in this life!

Ecc 7: v1. A good name [is] better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.

Aaron and his Sons were symbolic of the future 144,000 Saints of the better Resurrection. The Levites are symbolic of the future Innumerable Multitude, another type of Saint that overcomes during the first hundred years of the last great day after the Millennial Sabbath. All humans who ever lived or were aborted who are not part of the 144k Saints will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath and learn from our Creator for a thousand years and then get their chance to be in the family if they can overcome the adversary when he's let out during the first hundred years of the Last Great Day.

No way you say! Sorry, not sorry!

Rev 20: v2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

V3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

V4. And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of YahwehShua Messiah, and for the word of Yahweh, and which had not worshipped the beast (creature = creation), neither his image (false idols), neither had received [his] mark (absence of 777) upon their foreheads (brain mind), or in their hands (doing their occupation any day of the week); and they lived and reigned with YahwehZidkenu Messiah a thousand years.

V5. But the rest of the (Spiritual) dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished (he just handed out 144k Spiritual bodies v4. No more spiritual bodies for over a thousand years is a true fact. It does not preclude however having anyone who didn't make it to the 7th Trump having their physical body and life extended during the millennium for the Millennial Sabbath. What a loving Creator! All creation has a chance to be in the family.) This [is] the first resurrection.

V6. Blessed and holy [is] he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of YahwehZidkenu Messiah, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

V7. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

V8. And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom [is] as the sand of the sea (ends badly again similar to Armageddon prior to the Millennial Sabbath.)

All creation not part of the better Resurrection will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath. This includes Hitler, murderers, aborted fetuses, and everyone who's paralyzed, or injured will be restored whole and get to know our Creator perfectly for a 1,000 years without any influence from the adversary.

You've lost it! A former prisoner I used to study with said when everybody says you're losing it that's when you're finding it!   

HalleluYahwehShua!

COVETING

I struggle with overcoming coveting. Are some things okay to covet? What's the difference between the Old and New Covenant 10th commandment? What's the opposite of coveting? What does the Bible say?

It is in the top 10 and we're to hate it.

Exo 20: v17. Thou shalt not covet (desire greatly) thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbour’s.

Exo 18: v21. Moreover, thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear Yahweh, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place [such] over them, [to be] rulers of thousands, [and] rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:

The Old Covenant is talking about or actually acting on the great desire to have something.

Jos 7: v20. And Achan answered Joshua (there was no J in the Hebrew language at this time; thus the correct name was Yahshua), and said, Indeed I have sinned against Yahweh the El of Israel, and thus and thus have I done:

V21. When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they [are] hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.

V24. And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters (your sin hurts your innocent family around you. Remember King David:2Sa 12: v9.) Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of Yahweh, to do evil in his sight? Thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife [to be] thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.     

King David looking at Bathsheba.

 

 Nathan telling David he is the man in the parable.

  V14. Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of Yahweh to blaspheme, the child also [that is] born unto thee shall surely die.}), and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto the valley of Achor.

V25. And Joshua said, Why hast thou troubled us? Yahweh shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones and burned them (he and his family!) with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.

The New Covenant is just thinking about something you desire that's not yours.

1Th 2: v4. But as we were allowed of YahwehShua to be put in trust with the evangel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but YahwehShua, which trieth our hearts (minds).

V5. For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; YahwehShua [is] witness:

The opposite of coveting is being content.

Heb 13: v5. [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

It can prolong your life (in this age or the next) similar to the fifth commandment.

Pro 28: v16. The prince that wanteth understanding [is] also a great oppressor: [but] he that hateth covetousness shall prolong [his] days.

Exo 20: v12. Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which Yahweh thy El giveth thee.

Coveting is idolatry and frequently involves money.

Col 3: v5. Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

Pro 21: v26. He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.

1Ti 6: v10. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

1Ti 3: v3. Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre (money); but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

Many false assemblies use smooth words and false doctrine to take people’s money.

2Pe 2: v3. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words (false doctrine) make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

1Th 2: v5. For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; YahwehShua [is] witness.       

Being around covetous people in the world is not the problem. It's in the true assemblies.

1Co 5: v9. I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

V10. Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

V11. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

V12. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within?

V13. But them that are without YahwehShua judgeth. Therefore, put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

2Pe 2: v13. And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as] they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;

V14. Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:

V15. Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

You may end up outside the Kingdom (family) in the New Heavens and Earth if you don’t get it (coveting) out of your mind.

1Co 6: v9. Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of YahwehShua? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

V10. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of YahwehShua.

How do we cleanse our mind? Pray to Yahweh (Father) in the name of YahwehShua (Son). Paul mentions making every thought captive!

2Co 10: v4. (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through YahwehShua to the pulling down of strong holds;)

V5. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of YahwehShua, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of YahwehShua Messiah;

We must embrace the New Covenant Ten Commandments and scriptures.

Psa 119: v24. Thy testimonies also [are] my delight [and] my counsellors

V25. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.

V26. I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.

V27. Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

V28. My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word

V29. Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.

V30. I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid [before me.]

V31. I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O YAHWEH, put me not to shame.

V32. I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.

V33. Teach me, O YAHWEH, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it [unto] the end.

V34. Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with [my] whole heart.

V35. Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

V36. Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousnes.

Paul again mentions about getting covetousness out of the assemblies.

Eph 5: v3. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh Saints;

 Are some things okay to covet?

1Co 12: v28. And YahwehShua hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that, miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

V29. [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?

V30. Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

V31. But covet earnestly the best gifts (fruits of the Holy Spirit): and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

1Co 14: v39. Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

V40. Let all things be done decently and in order.

 John touches on it as well.

1Jn 2: v15. Love not the world, neither the things [that are] in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father (Yahweh)is not in him.

V16. For all that [is] in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

V17. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of Yahweh abideth for ever.

1Jn 1: v8. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

V9. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

V10. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

 James too.

Jas 1: v12. Blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

V13. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

V14. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

V15. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Repent daily!

Be content. Strive not to covet! Covet to be in the Kingdom of Yahweh the Father and YahwehShua the Son our Creator. Pray to Father Yahweh in the name of his resurrected Son YahwehShua Messiah to cleanse your mind and to help you bring every wrong thought into captivity. A beloved brother doesn't watch much TV, which can be the source of many wrong thoughts and desires.

HalleluYahwehShua!

DOCTRINE OF YAHWEHSHUA MESSIAH

What are the New Covenant Feasts? What is the relationship of the Feasts to the Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah? How important is this Doctrine? What does the Bible say?

Paul mentions the Doctrine and the New Covenant Feasts.     

Heb 5: v13. For every one that useth milk [is] unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

v14. But strong meat (difficult scriptures) belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Heb 6: v1. Therefore leaving the principles of the Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works (Passover) and of faith toward YahwehShua (Feast of Unleavened Bread Day 1),

V2. Of the doctrine of baptisms (Feast of Unleavened Bread Day2 {1Co 10: v1. Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; V2. And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;}), and of laying on of hands (Baptism of the Spirit-Pentecost), and of resurrection of the dead (Feast of Shouting-7th Trump), and of eternal judgment (Last Great Day).

Notice the peculiar absence of two of the Old Covenant Feasts of Coverings and Tabernacles!

Again Paul gives a clue.

But the heavenly things themselves with Heb 9: v1. Then verily the first [Old Covenant] had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.

V2. For there was a tabernacle made; the first, where in [was] the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.

V3. And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;

V4. Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, where in [was] the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the (Old) Covenant;

V5. And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercy seat; of which we can not now speak particularly.

V6. Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service [of Yahweh.]

V7. But into the second [went] the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and [for] the errors of the people:

V8. The Holy Spirit this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all (True Holy of Holies of the Father) was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:

V9. Which [was] a figure for the time then present (Old Covenant), in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience (mind);

V10. [Which stood] only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed [on them] until the time of reformation (New Covenant).

V11. But YahwehShua Messiah 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;

V12. Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the (true) holy place, having obtained eternal redemption [for us.]

V13. For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:

V14. How much more shall the blood of YahwehShua Messiah, who through the eternal (Holy) Spirit (from Father) offered himself without spot to Yahweh the Father, purge your conscience (mind) from dead works to serve the living El?

V15. And for this cause he is the mediator of the New Covenant, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first testament (Old Covenant) they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

V16. For where a testament [is,] there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

V17. For a testament [is] of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.

V18. Whereupon neither the first [covenant] was dedicated without blood.

V19. For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,

V20. Saying, this [is] the blood of the testament (covenant)which Yahweh hath enjoined unto you.

V21. Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.

V22. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

V23. [It was] therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; better sacrifices than these.

V24. For YahwehShua Messiah is not entered into the holy places made with hands, [which are] the figures (patterns) of the true; but into heaven itself (Father’s true Holy of Holies), now to appear in the presence of Yahweh the Father  for us:

V25. Nor yet that he should offer himself often (once for all sin: past, present, future) as the high priest entereth the holy place every year with blood of others;

V26. For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

V27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

V28. So Messiah was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

What about the Feast of Ingathering? YahwehShua Messiah was the Barley (early harvest) wave sheaf. The wheat (2nd) harvest of the 144,000 saints occurs at the 7th Trump. Everyone else who is not one of the 144,000 will be begotten in the Millennial Sabbath (Feast of Ingathering-3rd harvest). That’s why Paul, a strict Pharisee, left it out; it doesn’t apply to the 144,000!

The Day of Coverings was done away eternally when our Creator (the true high priest, Melchizedek offered himself as the perfect sacrifice).    

Paul's strong meat is confirmed in Ezekiel.  No mention of the Day of Coverings which was done away once and for all with our Creator’s self-sacrifice.   Ezekiel does mention the Feast of Tabernacles because this is when everyone who is not a Saint (144,000 harvested earlier at the 7th Trump) will be perfectly begotten and learn all there is to know about our Creator during the Millennial Sabbath.

Ezk 45: v25. In the seventh [month,] in the fifteenth day of the month, shall he do the like in the Feast of The Seven Days (Feast of Ingathering), according to the sin offering, according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat offering, and according to the oil.

But aren't we supposed to do these two feasts that Paul fails to mention in the Doctrine of Messiah forever?

 Lev 23: v31. Ye shall do no manner of work (Day of Coverings) [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

V41. And ye shall keep it a feast (Tabernacles) unto Yahweh seven days in the year. [It shall be] a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.

V42. Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:

For ever?          

Jon 2: v1. Then Jonah prayed unto the Yahweh his El out of the fish’s belly,

V6. I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars [was] about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Yahweh my El.

For ever (olam) in Jonah’s case was just 3 days. One of the Strong’s definitions for olam is a period of time.

Is YahwehShua Messiah going to torture those who fail to overcome, the fallen angels, and Satan forever in the lake of fire? Is he a terrorist? Yahweh forbid!

Rev 20: v10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast (creature = creation = equals people worshiping creation rather than the Creator) and the false prophet (human false Messiah saying he is the Son of Yahweh during the last 3 & 1/2 years prior to the 7th Trump when the two witnesses are also testifying) [are,] and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Likely a few microseconds (few millionths of a second) (for ever) for a human body maybe a little bit longer (for ever and ever) for a spiritual body like the fallen angels or Satan a few milliseconds (few thousandsth of a second).

So for ever is just a period of time. It's obvious that the Day of Coverings has been done away and keeping it now denies  the perfect sacrifice and is not mentioned in Ezekiel's Temple during the Millennial Sabbath. The Feast of Tabernacles is a little more difficult to understand but in the Old Covenant it looks back to the Israelites leaving Egypt and living in temporary tents or booths. In the New Covenant it's on pause until the Millennial Sabbath, whenever everyone who is not part of the 144,000 will have their chance to be taught personally by our Creator and then have their chance to overcome and be part of the family as the Innumerable Multitude in the first 100 years of The Last Great Day when the adversary is let out.

How important is this Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah and the New Covenant Feasts? John gives a clue!

2Jn 1: v1. The elder unto the elect lady (True Assemblies being perfected) and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;

V2. For the truth’s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever.

V3. Grace be with you, mercy, [and] peace, from Yahweh the Father, and from YahwehShua Messiah, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

V4. I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.

V5. And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.

V6. And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.

V7. For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that YahwehShua Messiah  is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antimessiah.

V8. Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.

V9. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah, hath not Yahweh the Father. He that abideth in the Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah he hath both the Father and the Son.

V10. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine (of YahwehShua Messiah), receive him not into [your] house, neither bid him El speed:

V11. For he that biddeth him Elohim speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

V12. Having many things to write unto you, I would not [write] with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

V13. The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.

Many unfortunately teach that Satan was put away on the Day of Coverings and was one of the azalel goats and bore his own sin. The only sin sponge and the only person who can and who did take away all sin (eternally) was our Creator.

Jhn 1: v29. The next day John seeth Messiah coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of Yahweh, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Isa 53: v6. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Yahweh hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

1Jn 2: v2. And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world (including the adversary and fallen angels).

Fallen angels, Satan, ha! No way you say?

Col 1: v20. And, having made peace through the blood of his beam, by him to reconcile (restore back to a former state of harmony) all things unto himself; by him, [I say,] whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

The only thing that needs to be reconciled in heaven is Satan and the fallen Angels. Everything else is perfect! Proof that our Creator died for all creation including the adversary and fallen angels who will be restored and probably live outside the kingdom eternally. This also proves Bob Bondurant’s work at the direction of the Holy Spirit that the two goats mentioned in the Old Covenant are both Messiah! There is only one sin sponge. Satan cannot take away any sin! 

Lev 16: v8. And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for Yahweh and the other lot for the scapegoat

V9. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Yahweh’s lot fell, and offer him [for] a sin offering

V10. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before Yahweh, to make a covering with him, [and] to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.

The goat that dies represents Messiah's self-sacrifice and his body and human name being defiled by all sin. The goat that is released represents the resurrected YahwehShua Messiah (the True High Priest to bear the iniquity {sin} of all including Satan and the fallen angels). Released into the wilderness (uninhabited land) means YahwehShua Messiah returns to the Father's True Holy of Holies as the perfect Wave Sheaf to bare the iniquity of all creation. Uninhabited land means the Father’s throne room and Holy of Holies have been off limits to humans.

What? Again Paul at direction of YahwehShua Messiah has the clue.

Heb 10: v19. Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest (Father’s true Holy of Holies) by the blood of Messiah,

V20. By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

Ultimate Access!

Know the spiritual resurrections: YahwehShua Messiah (past)-144 thousand Saints (future 7th Trump)-Innumerable Multitude (even later after 1st 100 years of Last Great Day)-Those who couldn’t overcome = rest of creation lives outside the kingdom (family) in the New Heavens and Earth.

Know the spiritual resurrections, the Doctrine of YahwehShua Messiah and the New Covenant Feasts if you want the Ultimate Access!

HalleluYahwehShua!

WILL THERE BE A SECOND CHANCE?

Today we had a discussion about whether or not someone who is called in this age, but fails to be chosen at the 7th Trump (144,000 Saints of the better Resurrection) would they get a second chance to be in the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude. Obviously it's better to make it with repenting and overcoming, so Messiah can be fully formed in you by the Seventh Trump as it is the better resurrection.  

I think everyone who is not called in this age or who has been called and failed to overcome or anyone that's not part of the 144,000 will have their physical life extended into the millennium. The Millennial Sabbath is when everyone will get to know our Creator perfectly without any interference from the adversary.

Most say that people who die in this age won't get a chance to be physically alive until the first hundred years of the last great day, based on Rev 20:5 and the following scriptures:

Rev 20: v1. And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

V2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

V3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years (Millennial Sabbath) should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season (first hundred years of Last Great Day).

A former prisoner I used to study with said he thought the bottomless pit may be in fact a black hole because not even light can escape a black hole. And Angels are described as light. Heb 1: v7. And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.

The light you see in the black hole is the event horizon right before it’s absorbed by infinite gravity. It would take infinite strength to escape a black hole. Only the Father and Son have infinite strength. The rest of creation including Satan is regulated by the Son.

V4. And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of YahwehShua Messiah, and for the word of YahwehShua, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received [his] mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they (144,000 Saints in spiritual bodies) lived and reigned with YahwehZidkenu a thousand years.

V5. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This [is] the first resurrection.

If our Creator is speaking physically, then they would be correct; however if our Creator is speaking spiritually there may be another interpretation. In verse 4 above it's clear our Creator just handed out 144,000 spiritual bodies to the Saints of the better Resurrection. Perhaps he is saying that he's not going to hand out any more spiritual bodies (or another spiritual resurrection) until after the millennium which is a true fact. So it could be saying that the rest of the spiritually dead don't have a chance for a spiritual body till after the millennium, but it does not preclude having their physical life extended into the millennium.

Others will quote this scripture noting that it's appointed for all men to die once and then the judgment.

Heb 9: v27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

Therefore, if he's speaking about physical death rather than the spiritual, have the scriptures contradicted themselves? Did Lazarus die physically twice contradicting the word of YahwehShua? Yahweh forbid!

The scriptures cannot contradict themselves. Our Creator appoints the day of your final physical death when he is done working with your mind in a physical body (see the paper titled Life & Death). Lazarus may have his physical life extended a third time during the millennium if he's not one of the 144,000 at the 7th Trump. Likewise, the two physical witnesses during the last 3 and 1/2 years prior to the Seventh Trump are likely Moses and Elijah who have had their physical life extended like Lazarus after 4 days or 4,000 years. Moses and Elijah are the only two besides our Creator who are able to fast for 40 days without food or water which is a human impossibility without the Holy Spirit.

1Ki 19: v8. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of Yahweh.

V9. And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of Yahweh [came] to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?

Deu 9: v9. When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, [even] the tables of the covenant which Yahweh made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:

Mat 4: v1. Then was Messiah led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

V2. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

Peter and others also had a vision of the Messiah and possibly Moses and Elijah in their glorified spiritual bodies.

Mat 17: v1. And after six days Yahshua Messiah taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

V2. And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

V3. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

V4. Then answered Peter, and said unto Messiah, Yahweh, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias (would Peter want to make a tabernacle to Moses and Elijah if they were just in physical bodies or is he just dumbfounded to see them physically living again after thousands of years?). Regardless, we know that Moses and Elijah will eventually be in spiritual bodies with the 144,000 and work with YahwehZidkenu during the Millennium and thereafter.

In the Millennial Sabbath (part of the New Coveanant) even the gentiles will come and worship our Creator at Ezekiel's temple (unlike the Old Covenant).

Zec 14: v16. And it shall come to pass, [that] every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles (see and understand the excellent article by Bob Bondurant, Fall Feasts truth and lies your salvation depends on it!).

What a loving Creator we have! Everyone who is not one of the 144,000 will get a chance in the flesh for a thousand years to know him perfectly (perfectly begotten) in the Millennial Sabbath.

Jer 31: v34. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the El YahwehShua: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith YahwehShua: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Then in the first hundred years of the Last Great Day all human creation who are not part of the 144,000 will get their chance to be in the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude if they can overcome the adversary at this point in time. If they fail, they'll still get a spiritual body and live outside the kingdom eternally. Remember death is swallowed up by life.

1Co 15: v54. 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.

V55. O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory?

Rev 20: v14. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

Also take a close look again at Revelation.

Rev 20: v10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast (people who fail to overcome in this age or the first hundred years or the Last Great Day) and the false prophet [are,] and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever (a period of time likely a few microseconds for a physical body, perhaps longer for a spiritual body that Satan and the fallen angels have, our Creator is not a terrorist!)

V15. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Then later the same physical and spiritual bodies that were destroyed are living eternally outside the kingdom or outside the family.   

Rev 21: v1. And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

V27. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither [whatsoever] worketh abomination, or [maketh] a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life (The 144,000 Saints of the better Resurrection{7th Trump)} and the Innumerable Multitude {later after 1st 100 years Last Great Day}).

Outside are the same ones that hit the lake of fire. Now they are purified in new spiritual bodies, even the adversary.

Rev 22: v15. For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie (prior to being purified in the lake of fire).

Num 31: v23. Every thing that may abide the fire, ye shall make [it] go through the fire, and it shall be clean:

Mrk 9: v49. For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

Remember he reconciles things in heaven and the only things in heaven that need rectifying are the adversary and fallen angels.

 Col 1: v20. And, having made peace through the blood of his stake, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say,] whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

Focus on the spiritual. What are the 4 spiritual resurrections? First, YahwehShua Messiah at the end of the weekly Sabbath during the Feast of Unleavened Bread 2000 years ago. Second, the 144,000 (better resurrection) at the 7th Trump following the 3 & 1/2 years of the 2 Witnesses. Third, the innumerable Multitude after the first 100 years of the Last Great Day. The fourth, includes everyone else who fails (even the adversary and fallen angels) will nonetheless get a spiritual body and live eternally outside the kingdom or outside the family.

Remember he loves all his creation. He just does not love our wrong thoughts or deeds. He loves all creation and will fix all creation including Satan and the fallen angels!

Run the race to win. Shoot for the 144,000. The better Resurrection at the Seventh Trumpet! There is no 2nd chance to be in 144,000 after the 7th Trump. You might get a shot at being in the Innumerable Multitude later.

HalleluYahwehShua!

LATTER DAY SAINTS

A beloved brother was a little late today. We joked that he was a latter day Saint. He mentioned the prophecy of Joel which ties into the latter day Saints.

Jol 2: v28. And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

V32. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of Yahweh (Yahweh of the Old Covenant was Messiah. 1Co 10: v4. And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Messiah.) shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as  Yahweh hath said, and in the remnant whom Yahweh shall call.

Peter quotes the same.

Act 2: v1. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

V2. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

V3. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.   

V4. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit gave them utterance.

V12. And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

V13. Others mocking said, These men are full of wine.

V14. But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

V15. For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day (9am).

V16. But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

V17. And it shall come to pass in the last days (the last 2 - 3,000 years since Messiah's death), saith Messiah Yahshua, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh (called at that time): and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

V21. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of YahwehShua shall be saved.

V22. Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Messiah of Nazareth, a man approved of Yahweh the Father  among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which Yahweh the Father did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

V23. Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of Yahweh the Father, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have impaled and slain:

V24. Whom Yahweh the Father hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

V32. This YahwehShua Messiah hath Yahweh the Father raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

V33. Therefore being by the right hand of Yahweh the Father exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

V34. For David (physical death; body returns to dust and the spirit or mind returns to the Father asleep: Ecc 12: v7. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto Yahweh who gave it.) is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, Yahweh the Father said unto my Yahweh the Son, Sit thou on my right hand,

V35. Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

V36. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that Yahweh the Father hath made that same Messiah, whom ye have impaled, both YahwehShua and El.

V37. Now when they heard [this,] they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall we do?

V38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of YahwehShua Messiah for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (Spirit of Messiah).

Joel’s prophecy also has future implications. The words “all flesh” could also be speaking of the millennium.  Peter mentioned the last days which could also include the Millennial Sabbath which is a day, and the Last Great Day which is another day or a thousand year period. Everyone who is not one of the 144,000 Saints will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath and learn everything there is to know about our Creator since the evil spirit is put away. The only thing entering your brain will be of the Holy Spirit!

Psa 145: v21. My mouth shall speak the praise of Yahweh: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever.

Jer 31: v34. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know YahwehShua: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith YahwehShua: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

V35. Thus saith YahwehShua, which giveth the sun for a light by day, [and] the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Yahweh of hosts [is] his name:

No growth of Messiah will occur in humans at that time (during the Millennial Sabbath) since the adversary is put away. There's no overcoming. Overcoming the adversary and repentance is mentioned in Revelation, chapters 1 through 3, over and over to the 7 True Assemblies (Assemblies that are being perfected). This allows the growth of Messiah in you. Gal 4: v19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until YahwehShua Messiah be formed in you. 

A sister mentioned the first hundred years of the Last Great Day the prophecy of Joel will apply. When the adversary is let out during the first hundred years of the Last Great Day will be another chance for people that have learned about our Creator perfectly for a thousand years during the Millennial Sabbath to have their chance to overcome the adversary and be part of the family as part of the Innumerable Multitude. Thus, Joel's prophecy of the Holy Spirit being poured out would also apply to the first hundred years of the Last Great Day. It's obvious that more Holy Spirit will be required to overcome the adversary.

Thus the latter-day Saints are all the Saints since the first Pentecost of the New Covenant involving Peter.

Thus Saints of the 144,000 are ones that have overcome and have Messiah fully formed in them by the 7th Trump.     

There will be Old Covenant Saints as well as part of the 144,000. 

Jhn 10: v16. And other sheep (Old Covenant Saints) I have, which are not of this fold (New Covenant Saints): them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd (YahwehShua Messiah).

 All flesh not part of the 144,000 will have their physical life extended into the Millennial Sabbath and be perfectly begotten in YahwehShua.

And if they're able to overcome the adversary when he is let out during the first hundred years of Last Great Day, they'll have their chance to be in the family as one of the Innumerable Multitude. They would be another type of New Covenant Saint, much like the Levites (symbolic of the future Innumerable Multitude were in service to Aaron and his sons the priests symbolic of the future 144,000 Saints).

Mutual voluntary submission and service to one another with a definite chain of command top down from Father Yahweh.

Father-Son-144,000 Saints-Innumerable Multitude Saints-Rest of creation purified by the lake of fire and living outside the kingdom family eternally, including the fallen angels in the New Heavens and Earth.

HalleluYahwehShua!
