Shalom Aleichem BPN and "The Breakfast Club." There has been a very sharp attack centered on using Tanakh/Old Testament quotes found in the Renewed Covenant/New Testament that are applied to both Yahuweh and Yahushua to prove the two are one and the same. It is important to fully understand these verses correctly.<br />
<br />
The first is found in Rom.14:10,11. It reads, "But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord [Alaha/haElohim], every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God [Alaha/haElohim]" (KJV). Paul was quoting Is.45:23 in which the speaker is Yahuweh. So when verse 23 says, "That unto me," "me" refers to Yahuweh. Every knee will bow and every tongue will swear to Yahuweh. Therefore, in Rom.14:11, "Lord" must mean Yahuweh, as does "me" and "God". There is no mention of haMessiah Yahushua [haMashiyakh] in this verse; not even in verse 10. Concerning the phrase "judgment seat of Christ," the Jamieson, Faussett, Brown Commentary says, "All the most ancient and best MSS. read here, "judgment seat of Alaha/haElohim."<br />
<br />
Paul does, however, apply portions of Isa.45:23 to Yahushua in Ph.2:10,11. That does not mean he is also applying the Name "Yahuweh" to him as well. Jn.5:23 helps us to understand this. If you don't honor the Son, by extension, you don't honor the Ab/Father. And Jn.15:23; if you hate the Son, by extension, you hate the Ab/Father. If you bow your knees to the Son, by extension, you bow your knees to the Ab/Father. Notice that what is sworn in Isa.45:23,24 is not what is sworn in Ph.2:11. (every tongue shall confess or swear that Yahushua is "Master" [kurios]). That same word (kurios) was applied to men in several other verses such as Jn.12:21. It is only a reference to Yahuweh when it is a direct quote of an Tanakh/Old Testament verse containing the Tetragrammaton which Is.45:23 does not.<br />
<br />
The next reference is 1 Pe.2:8, "And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed." Peter is here applying Is.8:14 to haMessiah. It is to be understood in the sense that, since Yahushua is Yahuweh's representative or agent, whatever Yahushua does is credited to Yahuweh or is as though Yahuweh did it. Isaiah says Yahuweh will be a stumbling stone. Yahuweh then causes Yisrael to stumble over Yahushua which makes them both stumbling stones. "The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. This is Yahuweh's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes" (Ps.118:22,23).<br />
<br />
Consider Ex.7:17 when understanding this verse.<br />
<br />
"Thus saith Yahuweh, In this thou shalt know that I am Yahuweh: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood. And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river. And Yahuweh spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Kemet/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 Kemet/Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone. And Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahuweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood."<br />
<br />
Yahuweh says He Himself will smite the waters with the rod in His own hand. Yet, it was Aaron that held the rod (Ex.7:19,20). Are we to believe that Aaron is also Yahuweh? Neither should we believe that Yahushua is Yahuweh in this verse.<br />
<br />
Consider Zech 14:4 in this light as well.<br />
<br />
"And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Yahrushalayim on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south."<br />
<br />
Most people believe "his feet" refers to Yahuweh's feet. Yet, they realize that it is Yahushua who is returning to set up the Kingdom on earth. So they jump to the erroneous conclusion that Yahushua is Yahuweh. As haMessiah's feet land on the Mount of Olives, Yahuweh the Ab/Father will cause it to cleave in two. Yet, as Yahuweh's representative, Yahushua's feet are spoken of as Yahuweh's feet just as Aaron's hand is spoken of as Yahuweh's hand.<br />
<br />
Yahushua is not the only one "coming" on judgment day. Yahuweh will come as well, but not in the physical sense that Yahushua will.<br />
<br />
Isa 40:10 - "Behold, the Sovereign Yahuweh will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him."<br />
<br />
The phrase "his arm" is a reference to haMessiah (Jn 12:38), but "the Sovereign Yahuweh" is a reference to the Ab/Father.<br />
<br />
Isa 66:15 - "For, behold, Yahuweh will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire."<br />
<br />
This is the language of 2 Peter 3:10-13 when it talks about "the Day of Yahuweh." Yahuweh the Ab/Father will come bringing judgment upon the world. He will do so through His Son Yahushua and the followers of Yahuweh which will be riding on the "chariots" of Yahuweh the Ab/Father. "All the People of Yahuweh" of Zech 14:5 would include Yahushua.<br />
<br />
Ex.7:17 is also the key to understanding Zec.11:13 which reads, "And Yahuweh said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of Yahuweh." Since Yahushua was priced at 30 pieces of silver, and since Yahuweh here says, "I was prised at of them," some conclude that Yahushua is also called Yahuweh. Using that same logic, who cast the silver down? Mt.27:5 says of Judas, "And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple..." Are we to believe that Judas is also called Yahuweh?<br />
<br />
The next attack on Scripture comes in 1 Pe.3:14,15, "But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" (KJV) Several commentaries and Greek manuscripts read "Christ" instead of "Alaha/haElohim" in these verses. They imply it should read, "But sanctify [Yahuweh] who is Christ." According to the Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, there are 6 Mss. that have "Christos" or "haMessiah" in the text and 8 MSS. that do not. Since the Hebrew Text clearly says, "Yahuweh of hosts" (Is.8:13), the Greek would say either theos or kurios, not Christos. The Greek text was obviously tampered with by those who tried to prove that Yahushua was the Yahuweh of the Tanakh/Old Testament.<br />
<br />
The last attack comes in 1 Pe.2:3,4, "If so be ye have tasted that the Lord [Alaha/haElohim] is gracious. To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God [Alaha/haElohim], and precious," (KJV). In verse 3, Peter is quoting Ps.34:8 which is speaking about Yahuweh. Some people would have us believe that Peter is applying the Tetragrammaton, YHWH, to the haMessiah in verse 4. The words "as unto" in the KJV, however, are added words not found in the Greek that change Peter's meaning. Delete these words and the Greek text reads, "To whom coming toward" or "To whom drawing near, as living stone..." In other words, the living stone (Yahushua) was drawing near or coming toward Yahuweh as will all living stones in the future (vs.5). The "whom" in verse 4 refers to the "Lord" YHWH of verse 3; "To [Yahuweh] coming, a living stone."<br />

The Image of Yahuweh<br />
<br />
What about Jn.14:9? "Yahushua saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?" Is Yahushua declaring that he is Father Yahuweh? Heb.1:3 and Col.1:15 both state that Yahushua is the "image" of Yahuweh. An image is something that resembles something else. Yahushua resembles Yahuweh in that their characters are almost identical. "Not that any man…
The Image of Yahuweh<br />
<br />
What about Jn.14:9? "Yahushua saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?" Is Yahushua declaring that he is Father Yahuweh? Heb.1:3 and Col.1:15 both state that Yahushua is the "image" of Yahuweh. An image is something that resembles something else. Yahushua resembles Yahuweh in that their characters are almost identical. "Not that any man has seen the Father" (Jn. 6:46) bodily, but we have seen His character through His Son.<br />
<br />
Man (specifically Adam) was made in the "image of Alaha/haElohim" (Gen 1:26,27; 5:3; 9:6). haMessiah Yahushua is also in the "image of Elohim" (2 Co 4:4; Col 1:15). "Alaha/haElohim" in these verses, when understood in the context of pure monotheism, is a reference to Yahuweh the Creator. Adam's inner man resembled Alaha/haElohim, but he himself is not Alaha/haElohim. Yahushua's inner man resembles Yahuweh, but he himself is not Alaha/haElohim.<br />
<br />
Col 3:10 tells us that after a person's conversion, after he has put on the new man, he is "renewed in knowledge after the image of Him [Yahuweh] that created him." Rom 8:29, 30 echoes this in that those that have been justified (through conversion unto haMessiah) have been predestined to be "conformed to the image of His [Yahuweh's] Son." Since the Son is in the image of Alaha/haElohim, to be conformed to the image of the Son is to be conformed to the image of Alaha/haElohim or Yahuweh the Creator. 2 Co 3:18 says that we "are changed into the same image" as the Master. This also happens upon conversion.<br />
<br />
From this info, I deduce the following;<br />
<br />
Adam was made in the image of Yahuweh. Upon his fall, that image was lost. It can only be restored through conversion unto the Master Yahushua. Yahushua, being sinless, never lost the image of Yahuweh. The image of Yahuweh has nothing to do with the physical appearance as far as the above references are concerned. It has to do with the inner man.<br />
<br />
Look at Ps 73:20. Yahuweh despises the image of the wicked. Why? Because they have put off Yahuweh's image through sin and have created their own new image. The same is true of all men for all have sinned. We all have fallen away from the image of Yahuweh and need to have that image restored through the indwelling Ruwakh/Spirit of haMessiah.<br />
<br />
When Yahuweh looks upon a believer, He sees the righteousness of His Son clothing us. He also sees the image of His Son clothing us. Our physical appearance has not changed, but our inner man has.<br />
<br />
The Attributes of Yahuweh<br />
<br />
The terms "omniscient" (all knowing), and "omnipotent" (all powerful) are often applied to Yahushua to prove he is the Alaha/haElohim/Almighty. In Jn.5:30 Yahushua said, "I can of mine own self do nothing" therefore, he cannot be omnipotent as Yahuweh is. Mt. 24:36 proves Yahushua is not omniscient; "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but my Father." In order to explain such verses "Oneness" proponents must turn Yahushua into the "God-Man." This unscriptural idea claims that Yahushua's divine half is omniscient and omnipotent but that he suppressed his powers during his life in the flesh. Nowhere in scripture is the haMessiah called a God-Man or shown to have two such natures at the same time. He is repeatedly referred to as a man in such verses as 1 Tim.2:5. When he is called "elohim" it is in the sense of a mighty one among his people as was shown earlier. This is not to say that Yahushua was a mere man. Scripture is clear that Yahushua's birth was a miracle in that he was not made from the seed or sperm of man. He is Yahuweh's only begotten Son; the only being ever to be "Fathered" by Yahuweh.<br />

"Zaquaine" Mufasa Abda Kalil TsidekiYahu CONCERNING THE TRAIT OF WATCHFULNESStag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-10-20:916966:Topic:10568382009-10-20T05:52:40.478ZRabbis Aviyah Byershttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/RabbisAviyahByers
THE IDEA OF WATCHFULNESS is for a man to exercise caution in his actions and his undertakings; that is, to deliberate and watch over his actions and his accustomed ways to determine whether or not they are good, so as not to abandon his soul to the danger of destruction, Alaha forbid, and not to walk according to the promptings of habit as a blind man in pitch darkness.

THE IDEA OF WATCHFULNESS is for a man to exercise caution in his actions and his undertakings; that is, to deliberate and watch over his actions and his accustomed ways to determine whether or not they are good, so as not to abandon his soul to the danger of destruction, Alaha forbid, and not to walk according to the promptings of habit as a blind man in pitch darkness. This is demanded by one's intelligence. For considering the fact that a man possesses the knowledge and the reasoning ability to save himself and to flee from the destruction of his soul, is it conceivable that he would willingly blind himself to his own salvation? There is certainly no degradation and foolishness worse than this. One who does this is lower than beasts and wild animals, whose nature it is to protect themselves, to flee and to run away from anything that seems to endanger them. One who walks this world without considering whether his way of life is good or bad is like a blind man walking along the seashore, who is in very great danger, and whose chances of being lost are far greater than those of his being saved. For there is no difference between natural blindness and self-inflicted blindness, the shutting of one's eyes as an act of will and desire.<br />
<br />
Jeremiah complains about the evil of the men of his generation, about their being affected with this affliction, the blinding of their eyes to their actions, their failure to analyze them in order to determine whether they should be engaged in or abandoned. He says about these men (Jeremiah 8:6), "No one regrets his wrongdoing, saying... They all turn away in their course as a horse rushing headlong into battle." He alludes here to their running on the impetus of their habits and their ways without leaving themselves time to evaluate their actions and ways, and, as a result, falling into evil without noticing it. In reality, this is one of the clever devices of the evil inclination - to mount pressure unrelentingly against the hearts of men so as to leave them no leisure to consider and observe the type of life they are leading. For it realizes that if they were to devote even a slight degree of attention to their ways, there is no question but that they would immediately begin to repent of their deeds and that regret would wax in them until they would leave oft sinning altogether. It is this consideration which underlay the counsel of the wicked Pharaoh in his statement (Exodus 5:9), "Intensify the men's labors..." His intention was not merely to deprive them of all leisure so that they would not come to oppose him or plot against him, but he strove to strip their hearts of all thought by means of the enduring, interminable nature of their labor.<br />
<br />
This is precisely the device that the evil inclination employs against man; for it is a warrior and well versed in deception. One cannot escape it without great wisdom and a broad outlook. As we are exhorted by the Prophet (Haggai 1:7), "Give heed to your ways." And as Solomon in his wisdom said (Proverbs 6:4), "Give neither sleep to your eyes nor slumber to your eyelids. Rescue yourself as a deer from the hand..." And as our Sages of blessed memory said (Sotah 5b), "All who deliberate upon their paths in this world will be worthy to witness the salvation wrought by the Holy One Blessed be He." Clearly even if one superintends himself, it is not within his power to save himself without the help of Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha Blessed be He. For the evil inclination is extremely tenacious, as Scripture states (Psalms 37:32), "The wicked one looks to the righteous and seeks to kill him; God will not leave him..." If a man looks to himself, Alaha helps him, and he is saved from the evil inclination. But if he gives no heed to himself, Alaha will certainly not superintend him; for if he does not pity himself, who should pity him? This is as our Sages of blessed memory have said (Berachoth 33a), "It is forbidden to pity anyone who has no understanding," and (Avoth 1:14), "If I am not for myself, who will be for me?"<br />

Yisrael you worm: Yisrael is called a worm, a symbol of weakness, but Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha/haElohim will make His People into a threshing sledge, an instrument that in His hands will pulverize the mountains, our current difficulties. These verses are a call to expect deliverance as we the people rejoice in Alaha/haElohim.<br />
<br />
Yeshayahu/Isaiah 41: 14-16: 14 “I have kept silent from of old, I have been still and held Myself back. Like a woman in labour I now cry out, I pant and gasp at once. 15 “I lay waste mountains and hills, and I dry up all their plants. And I shall make rivers become coastlands, and I dry up pools. 16 “And I shall lead the blind by a way they have not known – in paths they have not known I lead them. I make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These matters I shall do for them, and I shall not forsake them.<br />
<br />
Hear Ysirael, consider the dynamic power of Alaha/haElohim's declaration of what He can and will do with Yisrael and non-Yisraelites that have been grafted into Yisrael by the will of Alaha. "Threshing" means interceding, and Alaha links it with Yisrael and other Nations [see Mikah/Micah 4: 11-13]. Further, Alaha encourages us [Yisrael and the Nations] that if we will yield to Ruwakh haQodesh in obedience to the "Instructions in Righteousness," trust that Alaha is working, He will use us to radically change the course of the history of Yisrael and the Nations of the world as we pray. Our responsibility is to be interceding for every nation of the world. "My house shall be called a house fo prayer for all Nations" [Yeshayahu/Isaiah 56:7].<br />
<br />
Yisrael, we need to plan of prayer for ourselves and the other nations of the world. We as Yisrael/ites have the responsiblility to get into our place that the rest of the world can get into their place. Making our focus to be on "The People of The Way" in those nations. "Intercession" is foundational to this: Tehillim/Psalm 2: 7-8: 7 “I inscribe for a law: Yahuweh has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have brought You forth. 8‘Ask of Me, and I make the gentiles<br />
Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth Your possession.<br />
<br />
We are BEN YISRAEL haBEN OF THE MOST HIGH...! It is time to take our place in the "Light of Torah" so that we will rise to that Spiritual Place in our Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha/haElohim through His haMashiyakh Yahushua haMessiYah our BIG Ahki, Amein...!<br />

In truth, all development happens by means of the "Light of Torah/Instructions in Righteousness", which is concealed from us. And even though everything is done by Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha who is "Light" alone, when this takes place in our egoistic development, we don’t know anything about the "Light" and are not connected with Him in any way. Therefore, when a person develops, he becomes more distant from Alaha/haElohim, because he understands that he can do without Him. So in the heart of this…
In truth, all development happens by means of the "Light of Torah/Instructions in Righteousness", which is concealed from us. And even though everything is done by Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha who is "Light" alone, when this takes place in our egoistic development, we don’t know anything about the "Light" and are not connected with Him in any way. Therefore, when a person develops, he becomes more distant from Alaha/haElohim, because he understands that he can do without Him. So in the heart of this individual, the heart speaks: "After all, where is the Creator in our world and how is He present in all that I do?"<br />
<br />
This is why the era of Enlightenment is taking place, people are leaving the religious sene. But now, after all our development, we are revealing that we have reached emptiness. After studying and understanding this worlds systems, and religions, we now see that it is dirty and horrible. But the most important thing that we have come to understand is that the more we develop and the more efforts we make and despite becoming smarter and more skilled in some ways, things just keep deteriorating and the world becomes worse. So by developing the world, we have only made it worse, not better.<br />
<br />
This is why people are reaching a point of despair. But this is not enough, Alaha/haElohim will not allow you to run away from it all through drugs, sex, over eating, or whatever you are trying to fit the bill with. Together with all that is happening, the desire of Alaha/haElohim in the heart is surfacing in people, and it is pulling them to further spiritual development in HIM. This is where we come up against a problem: on one hand, this point is egoistic, because it’s the reverse side of holiness. But even though this egoistic point is a result of the breaking, it can be turned into an altruistic point. We can turn it into a “drop of semen,” which will become a spiritual embryo.<br />
<br />
The time has come for us as a whole to turn back [repent] to Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha through love which is obedience to "The Light of Torah/Instructions in Righteousness." We had the best example, Yahushua haMashiyakh Himself that showed us the way we are to walk, and that is in "LOVE", Amein...!<br />

Shalom Shalom BPN and "The Breakfast Club." There was a misunderstanding that happen within our group "The Breakfast Club," but Love/Alaha/haElohim brought us through, praise be to Yah, Amein...!<br />
<br />
Matthew 22: 34-40 "34 But the Pharisees, having heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, were gathered together, 35 and one of them, one learned in the Torah [Commandments/Instructions in Righteousness], did question, trying Him, and saying, 36 “Teacher, which is the great command in the Torah?” 37 And Yahshua said to him, “ ‘You shall love Yahuweh your Alaha/haElohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your mind.’ 38 “This is the first and great command. 39 “And the second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’ 40 “On these two commands hang all the Torah and the Prophets [Tanakh].”<br />
<br />
Growth in Love. One of the greatest indications that we are growing in our fellowship with "The Most High" is found in our willingness to love. Alaha/haElohim is Love. Love is not just something that He does. It's what He is. It follows then that we are never more yahly, never more like Yah, then when we love. How easily we may look at these two Commandments/Instructions in Righteousness and say quickly, "I love Alaha/haElohim," yet struggle with loving our neighbor. Yahushua haMashiyakh makes the second "Instruction in Righteousness" as important as the first. We cannot fulfill the first "Instruction in Righteousness" to love Alaha without obeying the second "Instruction in Righteousness" to love our neighbor. Nor can we avoid this problem by narroing our definition of "neighbor" to people "inour neighborhood" - that is, to those of our family, race, perspective, economic or intellectual level, value system, or religion. In the parable of the Good Samaritan [Luke 10:29-37], Yahushua makes the world my neighbor by qualifying anyone Alaha puts in our path, or who needs us, as "my neighbor."<br />
<br />
In the Script, the Pharisees' code of morality consised of countless minute rules and regulations of men. Yahushua summed up all moral obligations in the word "LOVE", expressed in the twofold direction of Alaha/haElohim and neighbor. The quotation in vs. 37 is from the Yisraelite Shema [Deut. 6:4,5], which all Yisraelites repeated twice daily. It represents the essence of "The People of The Way", namely that knowledge of Alaha/haElohim precedes knowledge of oneself or of others. The Shema not only defines the Oerson of Yah in trems of His unity, but it also defines the nature of the relationship that Alaha/haElohim's people are to have with Him and with one another.<br />
<br />
In the Renewed Covenant/Messianic Scriptures/New Testament, Yahushua presents devotion as a matter of the heart. He contrasts sincere, heartfelt devotion/obedience with the external, hypocritical, pretentious practices of piety among the Pharisees. He warns the followers of "The Way" against allowing even genuine, good works to distract from wholehearted obedience to Alaha/haElohim. Obedience is a matter of developing an intimate relationship and fellowship with the living Alaha/aHayah, learning the warmth of life that draws near to Ab aHayah Yahuweh Alaha's heart.<br />
<br />
When we walk in love, that is to walk in Yah. Yah will work things out among us. Lets not fight each other, for that is the same as punching youeself. Now we know if we see anyone punching themselves, we would think to ourself that that person is in the need for HELP. What do you think what goes through the mind of an unbeliever that witness the fighting of "The People of The Way."<br />

This last week was a test that I hope that we all have past, Amein...!<br />

"Zaquaine" Mufasa Abda Kalil TsidekiYahu MONEY MANAGEMENT "Choosing Alaha or Money" Matthew 6: 22-24tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-10-11:916966:Topic:10421462009-10-11T15:56:40.426ZRabbis Aviyah Byershttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/RabbisAviyahByers
Matthew 6: 24 “No one is able to serve two masters, for either he shall hate the one and love the other, or else he shall cleave to the one and despise the other. You are not able to serve Alaha/haElohim and mammon."<br />
<br />
The person with the good ["healthy"] eye is one whose intent is to serve Alaha/haElohim and not mammon [the money-god, used here to indicate the whole system of materialism]. The person with the bad [egoist] eye is selfish, covetous, and miserly. The one's life is full of light,…
Matthew 6: 24 “No one is able to serve two masters, for either he shall hate the one and love the other, or else he shall cleave to the one and despise the other. You are not able to serve Alaha/haElohim and mammon."<br />
<br />
The person with the good ["healthy"] eye is one whose intent is to serve Alaha/haElohim and not mammon [the money-god, used here to indicate the whole system of materialism]. The person with the bad [egoist] eye is selfish, covetous, and miserly. The one's life is full of light, meaning, and purpose; the pther's life is plunged into darkness, deprived of meaning.<br />
<br />
The Old Covenant called Yisrael to live distinctly from the nations through Qodesh/ness, focusing primarily on the external matters of the Law. However, Yahushua calls Yah's people to a qodesh/ness that proceeds from the heart. Qodesh/ness is now the outcome of loyalty to Alaha/haElohim and the realization of the fulfilling fruitfulness originally intended for "ALL" people "[not just Yisraelites]...!"<br />
<br />
Obeying Alaha was and is supremely important to Yahushua. Obedience is the response of faith to any "Instruction in Righteousness" from Alaha. Yahushua taught that true faith wii always be manifested in obedience to Alaha's revealed will. Successful "Peolpe of the Way" living results from seeking and knowing Alaha's will and then doing it in obedient faith.<br />
<br />
The issue of money is mentioned frequently in the Qodesh Scriptures because money can be a most insidious, beguiling, and pervasive temptation [1 Tim. 6:10]. Here in Matt. 6: 24, Yahushua haMashiyakh teaches that the problem with wealth or riches ["mommon"] is that we become mastered by it when we choose to serve money/mommon instead of Alaha/haElohim. The word "serve" used here means "to be enslaved to." Our choice of masters is not solely an issue of advisability [a choice of priorities], nor is it a mere question of accountability [a moral choice]. Rather, it is a clear issue of impossibility [no choice.] One simply must choose between serving Alaha/haElohim and serving the money-god/Gad. To serve Alaha also means to have money issues under control.<br />
<br />
In Matthew 6: 25-34 we must overcome financial fears. These words of Yahushua teaches us how to live in uncertain financail times without stress or fear. Financial fear is: 1) unreasonable [vs.25]. We are not to become distracted from the substantial issues of life over less important matters like what we will eat or wear. It is 2) unnatural [vs.26] We are the only creation of Alaha that worries. Alaha/haElohim provides for the birds He created, and we are more valuable than they are. We are outside of Alaha's natural gesign when we worry. It is 3) unhelpful [vs.27]. Worry and fear do not produce anything worthwhile. It is 4) unnecessary [vs.30]. Alaha/haElohim provides for His own and promises to take care of our needs and will give to us our hearts desires [when we stand in correction]. It is 5) unbelieving nor trusting [vs.31,32]. We are acting as if Alaha/haElohim did not exist when we live in financial fear. Our Ab/Father knows our ever need, and He will provide.<br />
<br />
Yahushua haMashiyakh resumes the theme of single-hearted devotion to Alaha/haElohim and deals with the related attitude of freedom from anxiety over daily needs. He illustrates the worthlessness of worry by showing that it is unnecessary, unfuritful, and unbecoming of "The People of The Way...!"<br />
<br />
These are times that will test our faithfullness in Alaha/haElohim. Remember, its only a "TEST", Amein...!<br />
