Truth alone sets free
John 8:32; 17:17. James 1:25. Psalm 119:142; 151; 160
God’s Word is God’s will. This includes the Torah (Law), the Prophets, the Apostles and the teachings of Yeshua. His life defines truth. John 14:6 Deut 8:1-3, Matt 4:4.
Do we fear God and obey His commandments, or do we fear man and obey his doctrines and traditions? John 14:15; 21-24
The Kingdom of heaven
The Kingdom is our inheritance and the purpose of Yeshua’s coming. Both keeping the Torah commandments and faith in Yeshua as Saviour is required to be resurrected into His Kingdom, and to rule and reign with Him over the earth. Matt 5:17-20; 7:21-27; 24:11-14; Matt 13:10-13, 40-43, 52. Luke 13:18-30. Acts 24:14-15; 28:23-31; 1 John 2:3-6; 3:22-24; 5:1-5; Rev 12:17, 14:12.
The main message of the Scriptures and the Apostolic writings is the Kingdom of God. Lost to mankind through sin in Genesis, called the Garden of Eden and called the Promised Land to Israel and called the New Jerusalem, the Millennial reign or the City of God in Revelation.
The Feasts of Yehovah
The appointed times, or moedims in Hebrew, are the Feasts of YHVH as outlined in Leviticus 23. They are the Sabbath, Pesach (Passover), Shavuot (Pentecost), Yom Teruah (Trumpets), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement), Sukkot (Tabernacles). These are called the Feasts of Yehovah (LORD). These are Feasts that celebrate the promises of God to all mankind.
These Feasts tell the whole story of Yeshua’s first coming, the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit) and His coming and the second coming of Yeshua, the tribulation and the Millennial Kingdom reign.
Christianity has substituted these with Christian tradition and celebrations based on pagan festivals and has become one with the world in consumerism and commercialisation of spiritual things.
Scriptural truth and doctrine have been lost in the form of Easter, eggs, rabbits and buns. Also Christmas, where Santa Claus, gift-giving, decorations, holly and reindeer are more important than truth taught in the Feasts of God.
This paganism of Scriptural truth, including Sunday worship, is based on anti-semitism by the Catholic Church in the 4th Century. Zech 4:16-19, Matt 25:31-46 (His brethren are the Jews) Rom 11:15-21, Rom 15:25-28. Ps 2, Is 66:10-13
No wonder Christianity is blind and deaf to the Kingdom of God, the second coming, and the narrow path that leads to salvation in the Kingdom of God.
Giving Israel its rightful place
All nations and peoples will be judged on the basis of their acceptance, support and love of Israel and their Messiah. Yehovah defines Himself as the God of Israel (Jer 31), He puts His Name to no other nation. To Israel belongs the adoption, covenants, promises, the giving of the Torah, which are the righteous teachings of God (Law), etc. Rom 9:1-5
Without Israel, there is no Kingdom, no Messiah, no salvation, and no hope for the world.
