Shabbat Shalom
Loved One!
This study is
attached for ease of print and study format- also available at the website below YHWH is restoring all things; that includes us who
were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW
HIM and call on His name will be delivered- HalleluYAH We know they who walk in darkness and are “illuminated”
in their own minds will one day cry out, “Rocks fall on us- who can stand at
the wrath of the LAMB?” We are children of the light and we must rise from our
slumber- sober up- and walk like Yahusha walked! The DAY is far spent!
Why are we on a different
schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the Orthodox? For me it is
about restoration of all things- explanation continued at end of this week’s
study-
Today
we will be addressing our readiness to trust- even unto death as the three
thrown into the fiery furnace. We must answer for ourselves and our loved ones
some tough questions; we now see and hear about evil personified with beheading and such by demon filled men.
Are we willing to die for our Messiah and King? Better yet, as our friend
Lynette pondered- are we PREPARED to die for our relationship with our King?
Are our children taught that death is temporary- but our decisions in these
matters are eternal? Many of us will die and where will we spend eternity? It
is an easy thing to SAY we would never renounce our King but a totally
different thing to be faced with the famines and cruelty of wicked men. If we
really love our children and loved ones- we will discuss these matters and
teach them the life and death importance of resolving this in our minds. What
will be our response if our loved ones are brought before us and slain- or what
will be their response if we are tortured and slain before them? I have a great
link of Sadhu teaching on this matter.
FEAR
NOT- but prepare our hearts and minds- we are commanded to pray that we be made
worthy to escape and endure- and that will require intimate relationship and
His peace in all situations…

Luke 21:22
For these are
the days of vengeance, that all things
which are written may be fulfilled. Luke 21:23
But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are
nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and
wrath upon this people. Luke 21:24 And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away
captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the
times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Luke 21:25
“And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and
in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea
and the waves roaring; Luke 21:26 men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of
those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will
be shaken. Luke 21:27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with
power and great glory. Luke 21:28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up
your heads, because your redemption draws near." Luke 21:29 Then He spoke to
them a parable: "Look at the fig tree, and
all the trees. Luke 21:30 When they are already budding, you see and know for
yourselves that summer is now near. Luke 21:31
So you also, when you see these things happening, know
that the kingdom of God is near. Luke 21:32
Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no
means pass away till all things take place. Luke
21:33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My
words will by no means pass away. Luke 21:34
"But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be
weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day
come on you unexpectedly. Luke 21:35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the
face of the whole earth. Luke 21:36 Watch therefore, and
pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will
come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."
I expect our
lives will soon reflect our relationships and what is really important to us. What or who do
we really LOVE? As darkness (Wickedness: twisted from TRUTH or absence
of light) covers the earth- gross darkness will cover the people. This is
what societies worldwide are experiencing. For those sober and alert- those who
want to know their Elohim and draw near- they will become lighter and lighter.
The dark will draw near to like kind, becoming darker- and more perverted as
their conciseness’ are “seared”. Those
of willing obedience- which brings revelation and light will be drawn to more
light.
Matthew 22:31 “And concerning the
resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by Elohim,
saying, Matthew 22:32 ‘I am the Elohim of
Aḇraham, and the
Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaʽaqoḇ’? Elohim is not the Elohim of
the dead, but of the living.” Matthew 22:33 and when the
crowds heard, they were astonished at His teaching. Matthew 22:34 But the
Pharisees, having heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, were gathered
together, Matthew 22:35 and one of them, one learned in the Torah, did question,
trying Him, and saying, Matthew 22:36 “Teacher, which is the great command in the Torah?”
Matthew 22:37 and יהושע said
to him, “you shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and
with your entire mind.’ Matthew 22:38 “This is the first
and great command. Matthew 22:39 “And the second is
like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Matthew 22:40 “On these two commands hang all the Torah and the Prophets.”
We should note that the first four
commandments teach us how Yahuah (YHWH, Yahweh, and Elohim) wants to be loved;
and the latter six tell us how to love our neighbor as ourselves. Read them and
ponder on them- because they will direct the path of your life: (We repeat these scriptures in our Torah Cycle today)
These Four are how Yahuah INSTRUCTS- COMMANDS us to show our love for Him
Exodus 20:1
And Elohim spoke all these Words, saying, Exodus 20:2
“I am יהוה your Elohim,
who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, out of the house of slavery. Exodus 20:3 “You have no other mighty ones against My
face. Exodus 20:4 “You do not make for yourself a carved image,
or any likeness of that which is in the heavens above, or which is in the earth
beneath, or which is in the waters under the earth, Exodus
20:5 you do not bow down to them
nor serve them. For I, יהוה your Elohim am a
jealous Ěl, visiting the crookedness of the fathers on the children to the
third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, Exodus
20:6 but showing kindness to
thousands, to those who love Me and guard My commands. Exodus
20:7 “You do not bring 1 the
Name of יהוה your Elohim to naught, for יהוה does not leave the one unpunished who brings His Name to
naught. Footnote: 1 Or lift up, or take.
Exodus 20:8 “Remember the Sabbath day, to set
it apart. Exodus 20:9 “Six days you labor, and
shall do all your work, Exodus 20:10 but the
seventh day is a Sabbath1 of יהוה your Elohim. You do not do any work – you,
nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female
servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. Footnote: 1 There are other Sabbaths, but this is
the weekly Sabbath. Exodus 20:11 “For in six days יהוה
made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested
the seventh day. Therefore יהוה blessed the Sabbath
day and set it apart.
These six tell us- INSTRUCTS- COMMANDS us to love our neighbor as ourselves!
Exodus 20:12 “Respect
your father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged upon the soil
which יהוה your Elohim is giving you. Exodus 20:13 “You do not murder. Exodus 20:14 “You do not commit adultery. Exodus 20:15 “You do not steal. Exodus 20:16 “You do not bear false witness against
your neighbor. Exodus 20:17 “You do not covet
your neighbor’s house, you do not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male
servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, or whatever
belongs to your neighbor.” Exodus 20:18 And all
the people saw the thunders, the lightning flashes, the sound of the ram’s
horn, and the mountain smoking. And the people saw it, and they trembled and
stood at a distance, Exodus 20:19 and said to
Mosheh, “You speak with us and we hear, but let not Elohim speak with us, lest
we die.” Exodus 20:20 And Mosheh said to the
people, “Do not fear, for Elohim has come to prove you, and in order that His
fear be before you, so that you do not sin.” Exodus
20:21 So the people stood at a distance, but Mosheh drew near the thick
darkness where Elohim was.
Psalm 119:103
How sweet to my taste has Your word been more than
honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:104 From Your orders I get understanding; Therefore I have
hated every false way. Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my
feet and a light to my path.
Psalm 119:105 NUN. Thy word H1697 is a lamp H5216
unto my feet, H7272 and a light H216 unto my path. H5410

Keeping
His Feasts and commands (His WORD)
are not suggestions- they are for the willing and obedient to build
relationship- FIRST WITH YAHUAH AND THEN WITH PEOPLE- RELATIONSHIPS OF INTIMACY.
(Hebrews 10:23) Let us hold fast the confession of our
expectation without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy. (Hebrews 10:24)
And let us be concerned for one another in
order to stir up love and good works, 1 Footnote: 1 Mt. 16:27. (Hebrews 10:25)
not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the habit of some, but
encouraging, and so much more as you see the Day coming near. (Hebrews 10:26) For if we
sin purposely after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a slaughter offering for
sins, 1 Footnote: 1 See
also 6:6, Hebrews. 9:7, Num. 15:15-28. (Hebrews
10:27) but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce fire
which is about to consume the opponents. (Hebrews
10:28) Anyone who has disregarded
the Torah of Mosheh dies without compassion on the witness of two or three
witnesses. (Hebrews 10:29) How much worse punishment do you think
shall he deserve who has trampled the Son of Elohim underfoot, counted the
blood of the covenant by which he was set apart as common, and insulted the
Spirit of favor? (Hebrews 10:30) For we know Him who has said, “Vengeance is
Mine, I shall repay, says יהוה.” And again, “יהוה shall judge His
people.” (Hebrews 10:31) It is fearsome to fall into the hands of the living
Elohim.
Are we in active participation
with YHWH in building up the Body of Messiah? There is a great test coming; and
the real BRIDE must make herself ready. Are we really about our Fathers business-
casting out devils, healing the sick, and doing greater miracles that Yahshua
as He promised? Since we are being restored, should that not be our goal? Or
are we becoming learners and hearers only but not DOERS of the word? I have
sensed a great caution/warning from the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) to pursue spiritual gifts as they will be much needed
as more and more evil is poured out by the enemy of our souls- (Like a flood the Ruach raises a standard
against him). There is much danger among us of learning the Torah and ABOUT
Him, but not doing the walk looking and acting as He did and never DOING
the TRUTH. (1 John 2:3) And by this we know that we know Him, if we guard His commands.1 Footnote: 1 See 3:6. (1 John 2:4)
The one who says, “I know Him,” and does not guard His commands, is a
liar, and the truth is not in him. (1 John 2:5) But whoever guards
His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected 1 in
him. By this we know that we are in Him .2
Footnotes: 1 Genesis 17:1, Psalms 119:1,
Matthew 5:48. 2 See 3:24. (1John 2:6) The one who says
he stays in Him ought himself also to walk, even as He walked.
The real Body of Messiah of whom
He is the Head of; will walk in His love, compassion, and power against hell’s
works. We will be as rivers of life against the drought, famine, condemnation
and death brought by hasatan. He only brings what he has; death and
condemnation as he has been and still is CONDEMNED. To accomplish our
destinies- we MUST WALK IN POWER! Can He trust us with His power? He will trust
His bride so we must make ourselves ready. Are you and I even trusting Him for
His power to help others- mush less is He finding us trustworthy? If we are not
walking in His love and power; we have some changing to do. (John 13:34)
“A renewed command I give to you, that you love one another, as I have loved
you, that you also love one another. (John 13:35) “By this shall
all know that you are my taught ones, if you have love for one another.” Please recognize and question yourself and
checkup to see if you are walking in His love and compassion or have you become
a scriptural Torah Terrorist? Often, we are blindsided by our zest to follow
our King in obedience.
He changes not- so that only leaves us
to repent and do all the changing- He has finished and is sitting at the
right side of the Father waiting for His enemies to be made His footstool. He
has paid for us to become who we are destined to become; but I am concerned
that our fear and ignorance of His love, compassion and power has left us way
short of the mark of the High Calling of Messiah. Often, I have heard many
believers (Out of fear and/or ignorance)
assign the works of the Ruach to demons- the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit which
will not be forgiven in this age – or the one to come. We should realize that
hasatan will always try a counterfeit- but that must not make us fearful from
the reality of the NEED FOR HIS GIFTS. Honestly, do you and I really think we
will walk in Yahshua’s love, compassion, and power over the horrible demonic
forces of hell unleashed on planet earth and its inhabitants without NEEDING to
walk in the gifts of His Ruach; that are given as the Spirit wills for the
benefit of others? Surely we are not that ignorant and self-sufficient. My hope
and expectation for us is that we will realize our Father knows better than we,
that we will be powerfully outgunned by wicked men supernatural powers and
weapons unless we receive Yahuah’s gifts to overcome as they are written. It
all starts with yielding our tongues as we ask Yahshua to Mikveh (Baptize) us in His Spirit and Fire.
Most of you know the tongue is likened to a rudder on a ship and a bridle on a
horse- which both are for determining direction. This is true for our walk
also. I want to encourage you to yield your tongues and ask and trust Yahshua to
Mikveh you in His Spirit! He has shown us; we have really not surrendered our
lives to Yahusha at all until we surrender our directions/control in this
manner. Some of you are still fearful and doubtful of trusting Him with your
tongue…so consider His instructions.
(Luke 11:9) “And I say to you: ask and it shall be given to you, seek and
you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you. (Luke 11:10) “For everyone
asking receives, and he who is seeking finds, and to him who is knocking it
shall be opened. (Luke 11:11) “And what father among you whose son asks for bread shall
give him a stone, or if he asks for a fish shall give him a snake instead of a
fish, (Luke 11:12) or if he asks for
an egg shall give him a scorpion? (Luke 11:13)
“If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your
children, how much more shall your Father from heaven give the Set-apart Spirit to
those asking Him?”
Once you have obeyed Him in this area of
direction; then you will go on to His nine gifts to the exact
extent you willingly trust and obey. (Isaiah 1:18) “Come now, and
let us reason together,” says יהוה.
“Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they
are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:19) “If you submit
and obey, you shall eat the good of the land; (Isaiah 1:20) but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be
devoured by the sword,” for the mouth of יהוה
has spoken.
(1 Corinthians 12:1) And concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not wish
you to be ignorant. (1 Corinthians
12:2) You
know that you were gentiles, 1 led away to the dumb idols,
even as you might be led. Footnote: 1 Ephesians
2:11, Ephesians 4:17, 1 Peter 4:3, 1 Thessalonians 4:5. (1 Corinthians 12:3)
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of
Elohim says יהושע is a curse, and no one is able to say that יהושע is Master (Lord)
except by the Set-apart Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:4) And there are different kinds of gifts, but
the same Spirit. (1 Corinthians 12:5) There are different kinds of services, but
the same Master. (1 Corinthians 12:6) And there are different kinds of workings,
but it is the same Elohim who is working all in all. (1
Corinthians 12:7) And to each one
is given the manifestation of the Spirit for profiting (Others)…
(1 Corinthians 12:8) for to one is given a word of
wisdom through the Spirit, and to another a word of knowledge
according to the same Spirit, (1 Corinthians 12:9)
and to another belief (supernatural
faith/trust) by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the
same Spirit, (1 Corinthians 12:10) and to
another operations
of powers, and to another prophecy, and to another discerning
of spirits, and to another kinds of tongues, and to another interpretation
of tongues. (1 Corinthians 12:11) But one and the same Spirit works all these,
distributing to each one individually as He intends.
I want to clarify that there is no gift listed as
discernment which is often used as an excuse or gift of judgment. (There is only one law (Torah) giver and one judge and
we are not Him) There is a gift of discerning of spirits where YHWH allows us
to see into the spirit realm (As He wills) where we can see angels, demons,
Yahusha, etc. None of the gifts are under our control, they are given as the
spirit wills, but I would add that they are absolutely made available to those
who believe them who are out DOING the GOSPEL! He is no respecter of persons
but He watches over His word to perform it. Remember, the more you read and
study these Scriptures, the more faith you will have to receive these gifts for
the benefit of others.
We choose words that agree
with Yahshua as He told me anything else is a lie no matter how raging the
storm may bone. Actually, here is how the conversation went; I said after camping out many years ago- “I have a
crick in my neck.” He replied; “You should not have
said that.” I replied: “It’s the
truth- what do you want me to say? I feel like a liar if I say I am healed and
my neck hurts” He replied: “Can you lie if you agree
with me son?” I replied (perhaps foolishly but thinking I was correct)
“Yes- I guess I can- because I want to speak only TRUTH!” He replied sternly
but with love: “If you disagree with me son, YOU are
the liar and I am still the TRUTH!”
There
remain our choices concerning being equipped for real and present danger; which
are guaranteed and made available by YHWH who will require Heaven and Earth to
witness us and our choices this day! We should not fear him who can kill the
body but rather FEAR HIM who can also
cast us into hell! Let’s receive His promised help and get prepared as we
wrestle not against flesh and blood- but against powers…
(Ephesians 6:10) For the rest, my brothers, be strong in the
Master and in the mightiness of His strength. (Ephesians
6:11) Put on the complete armor
of Elohim, for you to have power to stand against the schemes of the devil. (Ephesians 6:12)
We do not wrestle against flesh and
blood, but
against principalities, against authorities, against the world-rulers of the
darkness of this age, against spiritual matters of wickedness in the
heavenlies. (Ephesians 6:13) Because of this, take up the complete armor
of Elohim, so that you have power to withstand in the wicked day, and having
done all, to stand. (Ephesians 6:14) Stand, then, having girded your waist with
truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, (Ephesians 6:15)
and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of
peace; (Ephesians 6:16) above all, having taken up the shield of
belief with which you shall have power to quench all the burning arrows of the
wicked one. (Ephesians 6:17) Take also the helmet of deliverance, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of Elohim, 1
Footnote: 1 Isaiah. 59:21. (Ephesians 6:18)
praying at all times, with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit,
watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the set-apart ones; (Ephesians 6:19)
also for me, that a word might be given to me in the opening of my
mouth, to be bold in making known the secret of the Good News, (Ephesians 6:20)
for which I am an envoy in chains, that in it I might speak boldly, as I
should speak.
Our words agreeing with
HIM are powerful and will accomplish what they were sent for!
(Deuteronomy 30:13) “Nor is it beyond the sea, to say, ‘Who shall
go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, and cause us to hear it, so that we
do it?’ (Deuteronomy 30:14) “For the Word is very near you, in your mouth and in your
heart – to do it. (Deuteronomy 30:15) “See, I have set before you today life and
good, and death and evil, (Deuteronomy 30:16) in that I am commanding you today to love יהוה your Elohim,
to walk in His ways, and to guard His commands, and His laws, and His
right-rulings. And you shall live and increase, and יהוה
your Elohim shall bless you in the land which you go to possess. (Deuteronomy 30:17)
“But if your heart turns away, and you
do not obey, and shall be drawn away, and shall bow down to other
mighty ones and serve them, (Deuteronomy 30:18) “I have declared to you today that you shall certainly perish, you
shall not prolong your days in the land which you are passing over the Yardĕn
to enter and possess. (Deuteronomy 30:19) “I have called the heavens and the earth
as witnesses today against you: I have set before you life and death,
the blessing and the curse. Therefore you shall choose life, so that you live,
both you and your seed, (Deuteronomy 30:20)
to love יהוה
your Elohim, to obey His voice, and to cling to Him – for He is your life and
the length of your days – to dwell in the land which יהוה
swore to your fathers, to Aḇraham, to Yitsḥaq, and to Yaʽaqoḇ, to give
them.”
Now let’s get to this week’s Torah (Instructions in Hebrews not Law) Study about loving Yahuah and our neighbor
as ourselves!
Here are this week’s Torah
Scriptures: Kedoshim “Holy Ones”
Leviticus 19:1-20:27; Ezekiel
22:1-19; Isaiah 66:1-24; 1 Peter 1:13-16
OBEDIENCE: How we love YHWH and love our
neighbor as ourselves!
(Leviticus 19:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 19:2) “Speak to all the congregation of
the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘Be set-apart, for I יהוה your Elohim am set-apart. (Leviticus

his father, and guard My Sabbaths. I am יהוה

‘And when you bring a peace offering to יהוה,
bring it for your acceptance. (Leviticus 19:6) ‘It is eaten the same day you slaughter it,

and that being shall be cut off from his people. (Leviticus

(Leviticus 19:19) ‘Guard My laws. Do not let your livestock

garment woven of two sorts of thread upon you. (Leviticus
19:20) ‘And when a man has
intercourse with a woman who is a female servant, engaged to a man, and who has
not at all been ransomed nor redeemed, there should be an inquiry. But they are
not put to death, because she was not free. (Leviticus
19:21) ‘And he shall bring his
guilt offering to יהוה, to the door of the
Tent of Meeting, a ram as a guilt offering. (Leviticus
19:22) ‘And the priest shall make
atonement for him with the ram of the guilt offering before יהוה for his sin which he has done. And the sin which he has sinned
shall be forgiven him. (Leviticus 19:23) ‘And when you come into the land, and have
planted all kinds of trees for food, then you shall reckon their fruit as
uncircumcised. For three years it is as uncircumcised to you, it is not eaten. (Leviticus 19:24)

shall favor the face of an old man, and shall fear your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Leviticus
19:33) ‘And when a stranger sojourns with you in your land, do not oppress him.
(Leviticus 19:34) ‘Let the stranger who dwells among you be to
you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself. For you were
strangers in the land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה
your Elohim. (Leviticus 19:35) ‘Do no unrighteousness in right-ruling, in
measurement of length, in weight, or in measuring liquids. (Leviticus 19:36)
‘Have right scales, right weights, a right ĕphah, and a right hin. I am יהוה your Elohim, who brought you out of the
land of Mitsrayim. (Leviticus 19:37) ‘And you shall
guard all my laws and all my right-rulings, and do them. I am יהוה.’ ”
So much for abortion rights---yikes-
guaranteed judgment by YHWH!
(Leviticus
20:1)
And יהוה spoke to
Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 20:2) “Say to the
children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘any man of the children of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn in
Yisra’ĕl, who gives any of his offspring to Moleḵ, shall certainly be put to
death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones. (Leviticus 20:3)
‘And I, I shall set My face
against that man, and shall cut him off from the midst of his people, because
he has given of his offspring to Moleḵ, so as to defile My set-apart place and
to profane My set-apart Name. (Leviticus 20:4) ‘And if the people of the land at all hide
their eyes from the man, as he gives any of his offspring to Moleḵ, and they
do not kill him, (Leviticus 20:5) then I shall
set My face against that man and against his clan, and shall cut him off – and
all who go whoring after him, even go whoring after Moleḵ – from the midst of
their people. (Leviticus 20:6) ‘And the being who turns to mediums, and to spiritists, to
go whoring after them, I shall set My face against that being and cut him off
from the midst of his people.
(Leviticus 20:7) ‘And you shall set yourselves apart, and
shall be set-apart, for I am יהוה your Elohim, (Leviticus 20:8) and you shall guard My laws and do
them. I am יהוה, who sets you apart. (Leviticus 20:9)
‘For
everyone who curses his father or his mother shall certainly be put to death –
he has cursed his father or his mother, his blood is on him. (Leviticus 20:10)
‘And a man who commits adultery with the wife of another man, who
commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor: the adulterer and the
adulteress shall certainly be put to death. (Leviticus
20:11) ‘And a man who lies with
the wife of his father has uncovered the nakedness of his father, both of them
shall certainly be put to death, their blood is upon them. (Leviticus 20:12) ‘And a man who lies with his daughter-in-law:
both of them shall certainly be put to death, they have made confusion, their
blood is upon them. (Leviticus 20:13) ‘And a man who lies with a male as he lies with a woman:
both of them have done an abomination, they shall certainly be put to death,
their blood is upon them. (Leviticus 20:14) ‘And a man who marries a woman and her
mother: it is wickedness, they are burned with fire, both he and they, that
there be no wickedness in your midst. (Leviticus
20:15) ‘And a man who has
intercourse with a beast: he shall certainly be put to death, and the beast you
kill. (Leviticus 20:16) ‘And a woman who approaches any beast and mates with it:
you shall kill the woman and the beast, they shall certainly be put to death, and
their blood is upon them. (Leviticus 20:17) ‘And a man who takes his sister, his father’s
daughter or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness and she sees his
nakedness: it is wickedness, and they shall be cut off before the eyes of their
people. He has uncovered his sister’s nakedness, he bears his crookedness. (Leviticus 20:18)
‘And a man who lies with a woman during her sickness and uncovers her
nakedness: he has laid bare her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her
blood, both of them shall be cut off from the midst of their people. (Leviticus 20:19)
‘And do not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister nor of your
father’s sister, for that is laying bare one’s own flesh, they will bear their
crookedness. (Leviticus 20:20) ‘And a man who lies with his uncle’s wife: he
has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness, they bear their sin, they will die
childless. (Leviticus 20:21) ‘And a man who takes his brother’s wife: it
is uncleanness, he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness, they are childless. (Leviticus 20:22)
‘And you shall guard all my laws and all my right-rulings, and do them,
so that the land where I am bringing you to dwell does not vomit you out. (Leviticus 20:23)
‘And do not walk in the laws of the nation which I am driving out before
you, for they do all these, and therefore I loathed them. (Leviticus 20:24)
‘But I say to you, “You are going to possess their land, and I myself
give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am יהוה your Elohim, who has separated you from
the peoples. (Leviticus 20:25) ‘And you shall make a distinction between
clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean birds and clean. And do not make
yourselves abominable by beast or by bird, or whatever creeps on the ground,
which I have separated from you as unclean. (Leviticus
20:26) ‘And you shall be
set-apart to me, for I יהוה am set-apart, and
have separated you from the peoples to be Mine. (Leviticus
20:27) ‘And a man or a woman in whom there is a
medium, or who are spiritists, shall certainly be put to death, they are to
stone them with stones. Their blood is upon them.’ ” (Ezekiel
22:1)
and the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 22:2)
“And now, son of man, judge, judge the city of blood! And you shall show her
all her abominations! (Ezekiel 22:3) “And you shall say, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “The city sheds blood in her midst, that
her time might come. And she has made idols within herself to become defiled. (Ezekiel 22:4)
“You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and have
defiled yourself with the idols which you have made. Thus you have brought your
days near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I shall make you a
reproach to the gentiles, and a mockery to all lands. (Ezekiel
22:5) “Those near and those far
from you mock you – defiled is your name and great the confusion! (Ezekiel 22:6)
“See the leaders of Yisra’ĕl: each one has used his arm to shed blood in
you. (Ezekiel 22:7) “They have despised father and mother within
you. They have oppressed the stranger in your midst. They have wronged the
fatherless and the widow within you. (Ezekiel 22:8) “You have despised that which is set-apart to
me, and you have profaned My Sabbaths. (Ezekiel 22:9) “Slanderous men have been in you to shed
blood. And in you are those who eat on the mountains. They have done wickedness
in your midst. (Ezekiel 22:10) “In you they have uncovered the nakedness of
a father. In you they have humbled women who are defiled during their
uncleanness. (Ezekiel 22:11) “And the one has done abomination with his
neighbor’s wife. And another has wickedly defiled his daughter-in-law. And
another within you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter. (Ezekiel 22:12)
“In you they have taken a bribe to shed blood. You have taken
interest and increase. You have cut off your neighbor by extortion. And you
have forgotten me,” declares the Master יהוה.
(Ezekiel 22:13)
“And see, I shall smite my hand because of your greedy gain which you
have made, and at the bloodshed which has been in your midst. (Ezekiel 22:14)
“Would your heart stand, your hands remain strong, in the days when I
deal with you? I, יהוה, have spoken, and
shall do it. (Ezekiel 22:15) “And I shall scatter you among the gentiles, and shall
disperse you throughout the lands, and shall consume your filthiness out of you.
(Ezekiel 22:16)
“And you shall profane yourself before the eyes of the gentiles. And you
shall know that I am יהוה.” ’ ” (Ezekiel 22:17) And the word of יהוה came to me, saying, (Ezekiel 22:18)
“Son of man, the house of Yisra’ĕl has become dross to Me.
All of them are bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of a furnace
– they have become the dross of silver. (Ezekiel
22:19) “Thus said the Master יהוה; ‘Because all of you have become dross;
therefore see, I am gathering you into the midst of Yerushalayim.
(Isaiah 66:1) Thus said יהוה; “The heavens
are my throne, and the earth is my footstool; so where is this house that you
build for me? And where is this place of my rest? (Isaiah 66:2)
“And all these my hand have made, and all these that exist,” declares יהוה. “Yet to such a one I look: on him who
is poor and bruised of spirit, and who trembles at My Word. (Isaiah 66:3)
“But whoever slaughters the bull slays a man; whoever slaughters
the lamb breaks a dog’s neck; whoever brings a grain offering – pig’s blood; whoever burns incense blesses an
idol. Indeed, they have chosen their own ways, and their being delights in
their abominations. (Isaiah 66:4) “I shall also choose their punishments, and
bring their fears on them. I called, but
no one answered. I spoke and they did not hear, and they did evil before my
eyes, and chose what was displeasing to me.” (Isaiah
66:5) Hear the Word of יהוה, you who tremble at His Word, “Your
brothers who hate you, who cast you out for My Name’s sake, said, ‘let יהוה be esteemed, so that we see your joy.’ But
they are put to shame.” (Isaiah 66:6) “A roaring sound comes from the city, a voice
from the Hĕḵal, the voice of יהוה, repaying His
enemies! (Isaiah 66:7) “Before she labored, she gave birth; before a
pain came to her, she was delivered of a male child. (Isaiah
66:8) “Who has heard the like of
this? Who has seen the like of these? Is a land
brought forth in one day? Is a nation born at once? For as soon as
Tsiyon labored, she gave birth to her children. (Isaiah
66:9) “Shall I bring to birth,
and not give delivery?” says יהוה. “Shall I who give
delivery restrain birth?” said your Elohim. (Isaiah
66:10) “Rejoice with
Yerushalayim, and be glad with her, all you who love her; rejoice greatly with
her, all you who mourn for her; (Isaiah 66:11) so that you feed, and shall be satisfied with
the breast of her comforts, so that you drink deeply, and shall delight
yourselves in her overflowing esteem.” (Isaiah 66:12) For thus said יהוה,
“See, I am extending peace to her like a river, and the esteem of the gentiles
like a flowing stream. And you shall feed; you shall be carried on the side,
and be fondled on her knees. (Isaiah 66:13) “As one whom his mother comforts, so I
comfort you. And in Yerushalayim you are comforted.” (Isaiah
66:14) “And you shall see, and
your heart shall rejoice, and your bones flourish as tender grass. And the hand
of יהוה shall be known to His servants, and His
displeasure to His enemies. (Isaiah 66:15) “For look, יהוה
comes with fire and with His chariots, like a whirlwind, to render His
displeasure with burning, and His rebuke with flames of fire. (Isaiah 66:16)
“For by fire and by His sword יהוה shall judge all flesh, and the slain of יהוה shall be many – (Isaiah 66:17)
those
who set themselves apart and cleanse themselves at the gardens after ‘One’ in
the midst, eating flesh of pigs 1 and the abomination and the
mouse, are snatched away, together,” declares יהוה. Footnote:
1 See 65:4. (Isaiah 66:18) “And I, because of their works and their
imaginations, am coming to gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come
and see my esteem. (Isaiah 66:19) “And I shall set a sign among them, and shall
send some of those who escape to the nations – Tarshish and Pul and Luḏ, who draw
the bow, and Tuḇal and Yawan, the coast lands afar off who have not heard my
report nor seen my esteem. And they shall declare my esteem among the gentiles.
(Isaiah 66:20)
“And they shall bring all your brothers as an offering to יהוה out of all the gentiles, on horses and in chariots and in
litters, on mules and on camels, to my set-apart mountain Yerushalayim,”
declares יהוה, “as the children of Yisra’ĕl bring an
offering in a clean vessel into the House of יהוה.
(Isaiah 66:21)
“And from them too I shall take for priests – for Lĕwites,” declares יהוה. (Isaiah 66:22) “For as the new
heavens and the new earth that I make stand before me,” declares יהוה, so your seed and your name shall stand.” (This is good news!) (Isaiah 66:23)
“And it shall be that from New Moon to New Moon, and from Sabbath to
Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me,” declares יהוה. (Isaiah 66:24) “And they shall
go forth and look upon the corpses of the men who have transgressed against me1.
For their worm shall not die and their fire not be quenched. And they shall be repulsive
to all flesh!” Footnote: 1 See 24:6,
34:2-3, Psalms 110:6, Jeremiah 25:33.
Would
YHWH command us to be set apart and not equip us to do that? NO WAY! We
willingly choose to humble ourselves and obey His commands! Hallelu-Yah!
Kĕpha (Peter) is sharing much what Sha’ul said here in
Romans 12: 1-2- Do NOT conform to the pattern of this world but be being
changed by RENEWING our minds
(1 Peter 1:13)
Therefore, having girded up the loins of your mind, being sober, set
your expectation perfectly upon the favor that is to be brought to you at the
revelation of יהושע Messiah, (1 Peter
1:14) as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to
the former lusts in your ignorance, (1 Peter 1:15) instead, as the One who called you is
set-apart, so
you also should become set-apart in all behavior, (1 Peter 1:16)
because
it has been written, “Be set-apart, for I am set-apart.”
May YHWH
bless you Loved Ones. Truth seekers like you are
the best brothers and sisters on the Planet Earth! We will walk in His wisdom,
love and power! I thank you for your heart felt prayers! Times of
Jacob’s Trouble are approaching so let’s make ourselves ready. Really; thanks
for your heartfelt intercession for Billie and me; we know
it will be added back to you and your loved ones 30, 60 and one hundred fold!
May your seed be taught of YHWH as you obey through the fiery trials we will
face as this is guaranteed for obedience! (Just as it was for Abraham and we
are heirs according to the promises of Abraham because of our trust in Yahshua!)
(Genesis 22:18)
"In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."
(Isaiah 54:11)
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair
colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. (Isaiah
54:12) And I will make thy
windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant
stones. (Isaiah 54:13) And all thy children shall be
taught of YHWH; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
So
dear Loved One, FEAR NOT about your
children, just be concerned about your own right standing (Come apart from the lies
we inherited in pagan traditions) and
obey the Father- and rest in Him concerning your children. He is the one who guarantees
they’ll be taught of Him, so, declare and decree the matter and have great
peace! I have full confidence He will do His part as He promised! Let’s get
authorized and empowered to do and be about Father’s business!
Shalom
to your home- you are much loved,

Continued explanation of our Torah Cycle
restart at beginning of months… It
is about YHWH restoring all things which sometimes means we are walking alone.
I start over annually when YHWH’s year starts over; this is not to say that I
am correct and others are wrong, I just happen to believe we will never
challenge our older brother Judah by following his traditions. I expect Judah
will be moved by our obedience to His Torah (Words of Scripture) and seeing
YHWH’s signs and wonders following our obedience- Does
the statement above mean we are not to grab the tzitzit of Yehuda and take hold
and learn from them? Of course not,
we absolutely should learn of them and from them- just not ingest and keep that
which is traditions that go against His words! Especially since we are the ten (Ten scattered northern
tribes scattered for Easter and sun god day worship which parallels closely as
a pig slop eating prodigal brother)
Let’s look; (Zechariah
8:22)
‘And many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek יהוה of hosts in
Yerushalayim, and to pray before יהוה.’
(Zechariah 8:23) “Thus said יהוה
of hosts, ‘In those days (Now? YES
and in the future also!) Ten men
(10 scattered northern tribes called
Ephraim and Israel) from all languages of the nations take hold, yea, they shall take hold of the edge of the
garment of a man, a Yehuḏite 1,
saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.” ’ ” Footnote: 1 John 4:22.
