Shabbat Shalom Loved One!
This study is attached for ease of print and study format- YHWH is restoring all things; that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All who KNOW (Not know about) HIM and call on Him will be delivered- HalleluYAH! 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-
A short review from last week sets the scene for us… We will (Read MUST) rely more and more on Him and His plan as we seek Him diligently in prayer and fasting. (Hebrews 12:22) But you have drawn near to Mount Tsiyon and to the city of the living Elohim, to the heavenly Yerushalayim, to myriads of messengers, (Hebrews 12:23) to the entire gathering and assembly of the first-born having been enrolled in heaven, and to Elohim the Judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous men made perfect, (Hebrews 12:24) and to יהושע the Mediator 1 of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling which speaks better than the blood of Heḇel. Footnote: 1 See 8:6. (Hebrews 12:25) Take heed not to refuse the One speaking. For if those did not escape who refused the warning on earth, much less we who turn away from Him from heaven, (Hebrews 12:26) whose voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.” (Hebrews 12:27) And this, “Yet once more,” makes clear the removal of what is shaken – as having been made – so that the unshaken matters might remain. (Hebrews 12:28) Therefore, receiving an unshakeable reign, let us hold the favor, through which we serve Elohim pleasingly with reverence and awe, (Hebrews 12:29) for indeed, our Elohim is a consuming fire.
As it gets darker- we will increase in LIGHT- IF we stay close to Him and determine in our hearts that we will be even more INTIMATE with Him as we diligently seek His Face and the TRUTH presented as we study His word and the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) teaches us and draws us to Him and shows us things to come.
Apparently, whatever we are found trusting better have the solid foundation under it which is Moses (Torah) and the prophets. A close friend recently reminded of the verse below. (Proverbs 28:8) He who increases his possessions by interest and profit gathers it for him who shows favor to the poor. (Proverbs 28:9) He who turns away his ear from hearing the Torah, even his prayer is an abomination 1. Footnote: 1 See also 15:29, Isaiah 59:1-2, John 9:31, 1 John 3:22. (Proverbs 28:10) He, who causes the straight to go astray in an evil way, falls into his own pit; but the perfect inherit the good. (Proverbs 28:11) A rich man is wise in his own eyes, but the poor who has understanding searches him out.
Just in case you didn’t see these last week- for they are a blessings to those that desire to DRAW NEAR- Here are 4 great teaching by Dr. Bruce Allen (First Two: 40 min & 45 min.)

I can also say; whoever rejects the Holy Spirit (Yes, even unknowingly) will also find themselves hopeless!Why do I make such a bold statement? Many Torah keepers have unknowingly rejected the Holy Spirit and many Christians have rejected the Torah and the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh). Why do they reject the Holy Spirit? They are FEARFUL OF THE SUPERNATURAL and afraid of getting a demon. They INSIST on remaining in control of their life’s direction; THEIR TONGUES! The tongue is likened to a bridle on a horse and a rudder on a ship- these determine the direction- just like our tongue does!
James 3:2 For we all stumble in many matters. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the entire body. James 3:3 Look, we put bits in the mouths of horses, for them to obey us, and we turn their body. James 3:4 Look at the ships too: although they are so big and are driven by strong winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot intends. James 3:5 So too the tongue is a little member, yet boasts greatly. See how a little fire kindles a great forest! James 3:6 And the tongue is a fire, the world of unrighteousness. Among our members the tongue is set, the one defiling the entire body, and setting on fire the wheel of life, and it is set on fire by Gehenna. James 3:7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. James 3:8 But no man is able to tame the tongue. It is unruly, evil, filled with deadly poison. (Note: If no man or woman can tame the tongue- we must give it to Yahweh and allow His Spirit to control and use)
But Yahshua is sure to warn us (Commands us) that we MUST receive the Holy Spirit- the Ruach Ha Kodesh so that we may really be His witnesses. (He has our best interests at His heart for if we ask we will receive what we ask for- when we seek Him with all our hearts- NOTE below that snakes and scorpions represent the demons or demonic realm as noted in Luke 10:19)
John 20:21 Then יהושע (Yahshua) said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”John 20:22 And having said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Set-apart Spirit. 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!”
Luke 10:19 “See, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and none at all shall hurt you.
I need to share my own story here- so that some of you might move forward and trust the One who loves you and gave Himself up for you- that He actually wants only the best for you- and that is why He alone offers His Spirit for your help and comfort in the trying days we must someday face.
Many years ago (1980’s) I told the Lord that I did NOT need tongues- I could indeed pray an hour a day- unlike the disciples. You know, in the Garden of Gethsemane- when He asked them- Could you not tarry one hour? So, to prove myself I determined to pray 1 hour a day. I was indeed surprised when I struggled to pray 1 hour a day! I could only pray for about 20 minutes and repeat that prayer 3 times to get in my “self-required” hour of prayer accomplished. I literally could not think of one more thing to pray about –if my life depended on it; that about 20 minutes’ worth of issues. Try yourself and see. After about 7-8 days I gave up. I told Him; “Go ahead and fill me then with a prayer language”- Nothing, after several weeks I humbled my attitude and started seeking Him in a new way. I suspect I had offended Him, but rich in mercy- He downloaded His Spirit to me one night! All I can say is, what absolute joy and peace came over me- as I yielded my tongue to His utterances. Rivers of living water flowed from my belly area! It was indeed AWESOME!
I kept uttering for several days, then the “enemy” told me- I was making it up! So I nearly quit. Yahshua, in His mercy, instructed me to get a book. I said, what? Get a book? He said “YES! Get a book” I obeyed. Then He said, “Now read the book with your mind and pray in the Spirit.” I thought, how can I do that? Surprised, I saw quickly, that I could read and understand the book- while uttering unknown tongues. That set me free from thinking my mind was involved and making the utterance up- as they sounded like the same thing and did not seem like I had but a few simple utterances and not a very in depth prayer language. I can only say- do not despise small beginnings. Only trust and obey Him and He will give you more prayer language- as you exercise your faith in Him- and build up your most set-apart faith and learn to walk in His love- see Joel 20-21.
Zechariah 4:10 “For who has despised the day of small beginnings? They shall rejoice when they see the plumb-line in the hand of Zerubbaḇel. These seven are the eyes of יהוה, which diligently search throughout all the earth.”
Then He spoke a parable to me; “Son a man who can read and never does- has no advantage over a man who cannot read; likewise; a man who can pray in the Holy Spirit and never does, has no advantage over the man who cannot pray in the Holy Spirit!”
Acts 13:52 And the taught ones were filled with joy and the Set-apart Spirit. Romans 14:17 For the reign of Elohim is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Set-apart Spirit. Romans 15:13And the Elohim of expectation (Hope) fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you overflow with expectation by the power of the Set-apart Spirit. Romans 15:13 And the Elohim of expectation fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you overflow with expectation by the power of the Set-apart Spirit.
LOVED ONE- Want to know what time it is? Become a DOER of the Word-Torah-Instructions TIME that we gain wisdom from Him and understanding! Knowing the times and seasons The BRIDE will now make herself ready!
Since we will be discussing blood and our blood covenant, let’s please consider our walk of relationship with our Messiah and speak agreement with His blood over our loved ones and property. That blood covenant has the same power today as He will hover over us and protect us from the Destroyer angel as we SPEAK AGREEMENT WITH YAHSHUA! Remember; Yahshua reminds us; His words are Spirit and Life. We will not be allowed to have His power if we speak the facts- that disagree with Him- remember the facts (giants in the land) are temporal (temporary) and subject to change whereas His words and agreeing with them are eternal- He reminds us that Heaven and Earth will pass away but His words will remain forever! We really must change our attitudes from running from our GIANTS- to becoming like King David---a type of Yahshua- and walk like Yahshua walked! WE MUST RUN TOWARD OUR GIANTS! Physically literal, or those habits and obstacles to our obedience and intimate relationship- found unspoiled and of pure hearts as we take every thought captive- which in turn will overflow to our mouths and spoken words- AGREEING WITH OUR COMING KING!
Hallelu-Yah- walking in a demonstration of His power (which is becoming an ever apparent need) requires a humbling obedience on our parts loved one. Can we even imagine becoming Kings and Priests in the Millennial Kingdom if we won’t even obey Him in this day? I hope you are one of us getting blessed by keeping YHWH’s command in celebrating His Sukkot or Appointed Times and Seasons He set aside to fellowship (Tabernacle) with His people. Billie and I are so blessed to be among loved ones in South Africa for this feast. This Feast or in Hebrew- Moedim, which means, rehearsal of things to come (appointment), started at sundown, Monday October 2nd and will end at the end of the “Last Great Day”, sundown Tuesday eight days later. Are these seasons or appointed times important for you and I today? I suspect that they are our only way of being sober and alert in the last days. Here’s why as we look at the Scriptures:
These troubles in the end-times come on the world and surprises them- like a thief in the night- but it does not surprise us because we submit to try and obey these FEASTS or Moedim- the shadow pictures pointing to what time it is- His appointments with His people!
(1 Thessalonians 4:13) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. (1 Thessalonians 4:14) For if we believe that Yahshua (Jesus) died and rose again, even so them also which sleep (die) in Yahshua (Jesus); will YHWH bring with him. (1 Thessalonians 4:15) For this we say unto you by the word of YHWH, that we; which are alive and remain unto the coming of Yahshua (Comment: not all of us will be alive and remain at His coming!) shall not prevent them which are asleep. (1 Thessalonians 4:16) For Yahshua himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of YHWH: and the dead in Messiah shall rise first: (1 Thessalonians 4:17) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet Yahshua in the air: and so shall we ever be with Yahshua. (1 Thessalonians 4:18) Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
(1 Thessalonians 5:1) But of the times and the seasons (Moedim-Appointments), brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. (Comment: these times and seasons are the Moedim or appointed Feasts of YHWH, they are designed to help us understand His appointed times so that we will be not be overtaken and surprised and of the “they” that shall not escape!)
(1 Thessalonians 5:2) For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. (1 Thessalonians 5:3) For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. (1 Thessalonians 5:4) But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. (1 Thessalonians 5:5) Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. (1 Thessalonians 5:6) Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. (1 Thessalonians 5:7) For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. (1 Thessalonians 5:8) But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
(1 Thessalonians 5:9) For YHWH has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Master Yahshua Messiah, (1 Thessalonians 5:10) Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. (1 Thessalonians 5:11) Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also you do.
These appointed times and seasons have many now starting the annual Torah “cycle” study over having finished the Fall Feasts of YHWH (Comment: cycle is the word for path in Hebrew, i.e. (Psalms 119:105) Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.) As you see, I start over our Torah Cycle when Yahweh starts His year over at AVIV, as I consider this part of His restoration, the ancient path may also be known as a well beaten path since it has been travelled often.
Why do we study in “cycles” or go over and over the same scriptures every year? Our answer is found many places but here is one: We learn and receive truth by HEARING AND HEARING! The Ruach will guide us into more truth as we receive the engrafted word and become DOERS of what has been revealed. (Romans 2:13) Not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the law 1 shall be declared right. Footnote: 1 Matthew 7:21-27, James 2:14-24.
When we receive the engrafted word- we will both submit and obey by our doing or likely we also are deceived or at least prone to hasatan’s attack.
(James 1:21) Therefore put away all filthiness and overflow of evil, and receive with meekness the implanted Word, 1 which is able to save your lives. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 13:4-23. (James 1:22) And become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, 1 deceiving yourselves. Footnote: 1 See Matthew 7:24-27, Luke 6:46-49, Luke 8:21, Romans 2:13, Hebrews 4:11, Revelation 22:14. (James 1:23) If anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror, (James 1:24) for he looks at himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what he was like. (James 1:25) But he that looked into the perfect Torah, that of freedom, 1and continues in it, not becoming a hearer that forgets, but a doer of work, this one shall be blessed in his doing of the Torah. Footnote: 1 See 2:12.
(James 4:4) Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with Elohim? 1 Whoever therefore intends to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Elohim. Footnote: 1 Matthew 13:22, Luke 4:5-6, Luke 14:33, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17. (James 4:5) Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose? Does the Spirit which dwells in us intensely crave unto envy? (James 4:6) But He gives greater favor. Because of this He says, “Elohim resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble.”(James 4:7) So then subject (submit- receive and do or SHE’MAH-Hear and Obey) yourselves to Elohim. Resist the devil 1 and he shall flee from you. Footnote: 1 Or adversary. (James 4:8) Draw near to Elohim and He shall draw near to you. Cleanse hands, sinners. And cleanse the hearts, you double-minded! (James 4:9) Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection. (James 4:10) Humble yourselves in the sight of the Master, and He shall lift you up. (James 4:11) Brothers, do not speak against one another. He that speaks against a brother and judges his brother speaks against Torah and judges Torah. And if you judge Torah, you are not a doer of Torah but a judge. (James 4:12) There is one Lawgiver and Judge, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?
(Hebrews 11:1) now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Romans 10:17) So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing (Cycle) by the word of YHWH. (Romans 10:18) I say, have they not heard? Yes, verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. (Romans 10:19) I say, did not Israel know? First Moses says I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. (Romans 10:20) But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. (Romans 10:21) But to Israel he says, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
We now take a fresh look at the Cycles of Scripture as our hearts receive fresh revelation and understanding from hearing and hearing His word. Loved One- let’s turn our hearts and minds to this week’s Torah Scriptures!
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: Achareimot “After the Death”
Leviticus 16:1-18:30; Amos 9:7-15; Ezekiel 22:1-15; Hebrews 9:11-28
Blood and Atonement!
(Leviticus 16:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh after the death of the two sons of Aharon, as they drew near before יהוה, and died. (Leviticus 16:2) And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Speak to Aharon your brother not to come in at all times to the Set-apart Place inside the veil, before the lid of atonement which is on the ark, lest he die, because I appear in the cloud above the lid of atonement. (Leviticus 16:3) “With this Aharon should come into the Set-apart Place: with the blood of a young bull as a sin offering, and of a ram as a burnt offering. (Leviticus 16:4) “He should put on the set-apart linen long shirt, with linen trousers on his flesh, and gird himself with a linen girdle, and be dressed with the linen turban – they are set-apart garments. And he shall bathe his body in water, and shall put them on. (Leviticus 16:5) “And from the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl he takes two male goats as a sin offering, and one ram as a burnt offering. (Leviticus 16:6) “And Aharon shall bring the bull as a sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house. (Leviticus 16:7) “And he shall take the two goats and let them stand before יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting. (Leviticus 16:8) “And Aharon shall cast lots for the two goats, one lot for יהוה and the other lot for Azazel. (Leviticus 16:9) “And Aharon shall bring the goat on which the lot for יהוה fell, and shall prepare it as a sin offering. (Leviticus 16:10) “But the goat on which the lot for Azazel fell is caused to stand alive before יהוה, to make atonement upon it, to send it into the wilderness to Azazel. (Leviticus 16:11) “And Aharon shall bring the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall slaughter the bull as the sin offering which is for himself, (Leviticus 16:12) and shall take a fire holder filled with burning coals of fire from the altar before יהוה, with his hands filled with sweet incense beaten fine, and shall bring it inside the veil. (Leviticus 16:13) “And he shall put the incense on the fire before יהוה, and the cloud of incense shall cover the lid of atonement which is on the Witness, lest he die. (Leviticus 16:14) “And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the lid of atonement on the east side; also in front of the lid of atonement he sprinkles some of the blood with his finger seven times. (Leviticus 16:15) “And he shall slaughter the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, and shall bring its blood inside the veil, and shall do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the lid of atonement and in front of the lid of atonement. (Leviticus 16:16) “And he shall make atonement for the Set-apart Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and because of their transgressions in all their sins. And so he does for the Tent of Meeting which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness. (Leviticus 16:17) “And no man should be in the Tent of Meeting when he goes in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, until he comes out. And he shall make atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the assembly of Yisra’ĕl. (Leviticus 16:18) “And he shall go out to the altar that is before יהוה, and make atonement for it. And he shall take some of the blood of the bull and some of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar all around. (Leviticus 16:19) “And he shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and set it apart from the uncleanness of the children of Yisra’ĕl. (Leviticus 16:20) “And when he has finished atoning for the Set-apart Place, and the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat.
The Scape GOAT! (The great cover-up)
(Leviticus 16:21) “Then Aharon shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and shall confess over it all the crookednesses of the children of Yisra’ĕl, and all their transgressions in all their sins, and shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a fit man. (Leviticus 16:22) “And the goat shall bear on itself all their crookednesses, to a land cut off. Thus he shall send the goat away into the wilderness. (Leviticus 16:23) “Aharon shall then come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments which he put on when he went into the Set-apart Place, and shall leave them there. (Leviticus 16:24) “And he shall bathe his body in water in the set-apart place, and shall put on his garments, and shall come out and prepare his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people, (Leviticus 16:25) and burn the fat of the sin offering on the altar. (Leviticus 16:26) “And he who sent away the goat to Azazel washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp. (Leviticus 16:27) “And the bull for the sin offering and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Set-apart Place, is brought outside the camp. And they shall burn their skins, and their flesh, and their dung with fire. (Leviticus 16:28) “And he who burns them washes his garments, and shall bathe his body in water, and afterward he comes into the camp.
Day of Atonement! (Fasting = practical way of afflicting our souls)
(Leviticus 16:29) “And this shall be for you a law forever: In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you afflict your beings, and do no work, the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. (Leviticus 16:30) “For on that day he makes atonement for you, to cleanse you, to be clean from all your sins before יהוה. (Leviticus 16:31) “It is a Sabbath of rest for you, and you shall afflict your beings – a law forever. (Leviticus 16:32) “And the priest, who is anointed and ordained to serve as priest in his father’s place, shall make atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, the set-apart garments, (Leviticus 16:33) and he shall make atonement for the Most Set-apart Place, and make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar, and make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly. (Leviticus 16:34) “And this shall be for you a law forever, to make atonement for the children of Yisra’ĕl, for all their sins, once a year.” And he did as יהוה commanded Mosheh.
FOREVER… REALLY! Eat NO blood OR get cut off from the House of Israel!
(Leviticus 17:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 17:2) “Speak to Aharon, to his sons, and to all the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘This is the word which יהוה has commanded, saying, (Leviticus 17:3) “Any man from the house of Yisra’ĕl who slaughters a bull or a lamb or a goat in the camp, or who slaughters it outside the camp, (Leviticus 17:4) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to bring an offering to יהוה before the Dwelling Place of יהוה, blood-guilt is reckoned to that man. He has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people, (Leviticus 17:5) in order that the children of Yisra’ĕl bring their slaughterings which they slaughter in the open field. And they shall bring them to יהוה at the door of the Tent of meeting, to the priest, and slaughter them as peace offerings to יהוה. (Leviticus 17:6) “And the priest shall sprinkle the blood on the altar of יהוה at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall burn the fat for a sweet fragrance to יהוה. (Leviticus 17:7) “And let them no longer slaughter their slaughterings to demons, after whom they whored. This is a law forever for them throughout their generations.”’ (Leviticus 17:8) “And say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who offers a burnt offering or slaughtering, (Leviticus 17:9) and does not bring it to the door of the Tent of Meeting, to do it to יהוה, that man shall be cut off from among his people. (Leviticus 17:10) ‘And any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of the strangers who sojourn among you, who eats any blood, I shall set My face against that being who eats blood, and shall cut him off from among his people. (Leviticus 17:11) ‘For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your lives, for it is the blood that makes atonement for the life.’ (Leviticus 17:12) “Therefore I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘No being among you eats blood, nor does any stranger who sojourns among you eat blood.’ (Leviticus 17:13) “And any man from the children of Yisra’ĕl, or from the strangers who sojourn among you, who hunts and catches any beast or bird, which is eaten, shall pour out its blood and cover it with dust, (Leviticus 17:14) for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood is for its life. And I said to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘Do not eat the blood of any flesh, for the life of all flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it is cut off.’ (Leviticus 17:15) “And any being who eats a carcass or what was torn by a beast, be he a native or a stranger, he shall wash his garments and bathe in water, and shall be unclean until evening. Then he shall be clean. (Leviticus 17:16) “And if he does not wash or bathe his body, then he shall bear his crookedness.”
Careful- Loved One- watching TV and movies may find you breaking Laws of Nakedness!
(Leviticus 18:1) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 18:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 18:3) ‘Do not do as they do in the land of Mitsrayim, where you dwelt. And do not do as they do in the land of Kenaʽan, where I am bringing you, and do not walk in their laws. (Leviticus 18:4) ‘Do My right-rulings and guard my laws, to walk in them. I am יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus 18:5) ‘And you shall guard my laws and my right-rulings, which a man does and lives by them. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:6) ‘No one is to approach anyone of his own flesh to uncover his nakedness. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:7) ‘The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you do not uncover. She is your mother; you do not uncover her nakedness. (Leviticus 18:8) ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife you do not uncover, it is your father’s nakedness. (Leviticus 18:9) ‘The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you do not uncover.

(Leviticus 18:16) ‘The nakedness of your brother’s wife you do not uncover, it is your brother’s nakedness. (Leviticus 18:17) ‘The nakedness of a woman and her daughter you do not uncover, nor do you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are her relatives – it is wickedness. (Leviticus 18:18) ‘And do not take a woman as a rival to her sister, to uncover her nakedness while the other is alive. (Leviticus 18:19) ‘And do not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness in her monthly separation of uncleanness. (Leviticus 18:20) ‘And do not have intercourse with the wife of your neighbor, to defile yourself with her. (Leviticus 18:21) ‘And do not give any of your offspring to pass through to Moleḵ. And do not profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 18:22) ‘And do not lie with a male as with a woman, it is an abomination.

(Leviticus 18:25) ‘Thus the land became defiled, therefore I punished it for its crookedness, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. (Leviticus 18:26) ‘But you, you shall guard My laws and My right-rulings, and not do any of these abominations, the native nor stranger who sojourns among you, (Leviticus 18:27) because the men of the land who were before you have done all these abominations, and thus the land became defiled, (Leviticus 18:28) ‘So let not the land vomit you out for defiling it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you.

Remember “In That Day” is a Hebrews idiom for the Day of YHWH!
(Amos 9:11) “In that day I shall raise up the booth of Dawiḏ which has fallen down. And I shall repair its breaches and rise up its ruins. And I shall build it as in the days of old, (Amos 9:12) so that they possess the remnant of Eḏom 1, and all the gentiles on whom My Name is called 2,” declares יהוה who does this. Footnotes: 1 Vowels which the Massoretes added later on makes this read Eḏom, but it was probably a mistake. It should be Aḏam, meaning mankind. 2Acts 15:16-17. (Amos 9:13) “Look, the days are coming,” declares יהוה, “that the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed. And the mountains shall drip new wine, and all the hills melt. (Amos 9:14) “And I shall turn back the captivity of my people Yisra’ĕl. And they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them. And they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them, and shall make gardens and eat their fruit. (Amos 9:15) “And I shall plant them on their own soil, and not uproot them any more from their own soil I have given them,” said יהוה your Elohim!
IF we do these abominations with blood- will we get scattered all over the earth! Uhhh- Yep- we did!
(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 יהוהcame 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, ‘all of you have become dross, therefore see, I am gathering you into the midst of Yerushalayim.
Blood of the LAMB!
(Hebrews 9:11) But Messiah, having become a High Priest of the coming good matters, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, (Hebrews 9:12) entered into the Most Set-apart Place once for all, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood, having obtained everlasting redemption. (Hebrews 9:13) For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sets apart for the cleansing of the flesh, (Hebrews 9:14) how much more shall the blood of the Messiah, who through the everlasting Spirit offered Himself unblemished to Elohim, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living Elohim? (Hebrews 9:15) And because of this He is the Mediator of a renewed covenant, so that, death having taken place for redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of the everlasting inheritance. (Hebrews 9:16) For where a covenant is, it is necessary for the death of the covenanted one to be established. (Hebrews 9:17) For a covenant over those dead is firm, since it is never valid while the covenanted one is living. (Hebrews9:18) Therefore not even the first covenant was instituted without blood. (Hebrews 9:19) For when, according to Torah, every command had been spoken by Mosheh to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, (Hebrews 9:20) saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which Elohim commanded you.” (Hebrews 9:21) And in the same way he sprinkled with blood both the Tent and all the vessels of the service. (Hebrews 9:22) And, according to the Torah, almost all is cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. (Hebrews 9:23) It was necessary, then, that the copies of the heavenly ones should be cleansed with these, but the heavenly ones themselves with better slaughter offerings than these. (Hebrews 9:24) For Messiah has not entered into a Set-apart Place made by hand – figures of the true – but into the heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Elohim on our behalf, (Hebrews 9:25) not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters into the Set-apart Place year by year with blood not his own. (Hebrews 9:26) If so, He would have had to suffer often, since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the offering of Himself. (Hebrews 9:27) And as it awaits men to die once, and after this the judgment, (Hebrews 9:28) so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to those waiting for Him, unto deliverance.
My prayer for you loved one, is that you realize you are bought with a great price of His blood and become empowered to demonstrate His power and walk as Yahshua did! (Colossians 2:6) Therefore, as you accepted Messiah יהושע the Master, walk in Him, (Colossians 2:7) having been rooted and built up in Him, and established in the belief, as you were taught, overflowing in it with thanksgiving.
I pray that you walk in Him as listed following and produce His fruit that remains! (1 Corinthians 2:1) And, when I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the witness of Elohim. (1 Corinthians 2:2) For I resolved not to know any matter among you except יהושע Messiah and Him impaled. (1 Corinthians 2:3) And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. (1 Corinthians 2:4) And my word and my preaching were not with persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, (1 Corinthians 2:5) in order that your belief/trust should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of Elohim. I further pray that you learn to walk in His supernatural gifts by faith and trust and further that you walk in obedience and so in love with the Messiah that you FEAR NOT! HIS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR YOU AND ME! I pray you are crucified in Messiah and that you no longer live according to the flesh, but walk according to the spirit, and the life you live, you live in Him who loves you and gave Himself up for you! Thanks for your timely prayers for us that we also walk in His power, love and obedience; and that YHWH directs, provides, and protects us also along with our loved ones! Billie and I believe those wonderful prayers are seeds for your own loved ones- PRAISE YHWH! OUR DELIVERER IS COMING! HALLELU-YAH! You are much loved! Oh and it is of VAST IMPORTANCE- that we BE FILLED with His Spirit!
Shalom again to your home- Loved One!

Continued explanation of the 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: 1John 4:22.
