Are we not BOUND to the Hebrew Law, following the Hebrews after the faith of Moses the Patriarchs and even Jesus himself? Have we forgotten that Jesus was a practicing and Mosaic law following Hebrew? If we could met the Jesus of 2000 years ago by somehow going back in time, we would meet a man quite different than the one now embellished in the minds of the public. He would be a Hebrew.

We would find Jesus as a Rabbi with his head wrapped and covered according to law, and not like in the pictures Leviticus 20:10-11 "10 ‘He who is the high priest among his brethren, on whose head the anointing oil was poured and who is consecrated to wear the garments, shall not uncover his head nor tear his clothes; 11 nor shall he go near any dead body, nor defile himself for his father or his mother."

He would be wearing a beard according to law, and no tattoos, Leviticus 19:27-28 "27Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD." He would be wearing Tsetses or fringes on the corners of his clothes according to the Law, Deuteronomy 22:12 " 12Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself."

He would have not worked to earn money on Friday night and all day Saturday because of the Sabbath, Exodus 20: 8-11 "8Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.9Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:10But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:11For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."

He would have been attempting to live a simple life on earth giving up all he could to others and living day by day almost as a homeless person, depending only on his farther Yahvah, Exodus 23:11 " 11But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard." He would have had a hard time roaming in the desert washing and getting food on a regular basis, the bible speaks of Jesus being hungry and striking a tree because it did not produce dates, Mark 11:12-14 "12And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:13And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.14And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it."

He would have had a vast and deep knowledge of the Torah, and the Law, Luke 2:46-49 "46And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.47And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.48And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.49And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?"

Jesus referred to himself as a Nazarene. "Nazarene" is the person. "Nazarite" is the Vow (Or the person) and "Nazareth" is the town/city in which the MAJORITY of the individuals living there, attempted to keep these special laws. That's were Jesus and his own family lived. The Bible records this by referring to him as Jesus of Nazareth. He would have not drank wine, cut his hair or touch dead bodies as it were the custom for him and those in his village of Nazareth to keep the traditional law of a Nazarite: 1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the LORD: 3He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried. 4All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk. 5All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow. 6All the days that he separateth himself unto the LORD he shall come at no dead body. 7He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration of his God is upon his head.8All the days of his separation he is holy unto the LORD." Israel at that time was filled with the blood of dead animals from the markets to the Temple, all sorts hazards awaited the Nazarite as he or she navigated the streets, there were also tombs there as well. These Nazarene people needed a town like Nazareth in order to separate themselves from the rest of Israel so as not to break the vow. Even the dead bodies of their family members were carried out by special services from outside the town.

Mary and Joseph may not have been Nazarites in the early times of their lives, but when they moved to Nazareth they had to come under that vow. Jesus was disturbed when at the wedding his mother asked him to make more wine. "What have I to do with you?" They were breaking the law in Israel, that's why he was sent. Not to be like them, but to change them to be more like himself. Thus, GODs son is following the highest vibration of the law that Yahvah gave to man, The Nazarite vow. It is prophecy that he come form NAZARETH. He must have stumbled in the early years, the bible says " he grew in wisdom and knowledge before GOD and man". maybe like Solomon in Ecclesiastes 2:3 "I gave my self to wine to see why men fancy it so" (to paraphrase) he tried wine to see what it was like. But as the teacher that we know, he was, and called himself, a Nazarene. No wine.

JESUS DID NOT DRINK WINE: Matthew 26: 27-29: "27: And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28: For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29: But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. Mark 14: 22-25 " 22: And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. 23: And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it. 24: And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many. 25: Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God." Luke 22: 19-20 " 19: And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." 20: In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you."

How did Jesus deal with the dead:

The girl that he raised from the dead in Matthew 9 remember he said was no DEAD, only sleeping.

23 When Jesus came into the official’s house, and saw the flute-players and the crowd in noisy disorder, 24 He said, “Leave; for the girl has not died, but is ASLEEP.” And they began laughing at Him. 25 But when the crowd had been sent out, He entered and took her by the hand, and the girl got up. 26 This news spread throughout all that land. (NOT DIED)

And he NEVER TOUCHED LAZARUS only called his name at the mouth of the tomb and said RISE. After he was risen, then Jesus touched him.

John 11: 41-43

And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. 43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

Leviticus 20:10-11 "10 ‘He who is the high priest among his brethren, on whose head the anointing oil was poured and who is consecrated to wear the garments, shall not uncover his head nor tear his clothes; 11 nor shall he go near any dead body, nor defile himself for his father or his mother." Jesus was a Rabbi.

How did Jesus deal with ACTUAL dead bodies?

Matthew 8: 22
19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 20 And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. 21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

The lifestyle of a Nazarite would have forbidden Jesus not only from drinking wine, but from going to funerals, touching dead bodies, eating grapes or raisins, even cutting his hair which YAHVAH instructed the Nazarites to grow into long Locks (cannot be taken apart). So when he did unwrap his head we could expect to see long mattes of hair exposed after the style of Samson, another famous Nazarite and not like whats shown to us in paintings or on the pulpit.

The Jesus of 2000 years ago would have looked much different than his representatives in the churches of the West do today. It would not be the fact that most of us don't live in a desert or that we don't eat dates on a regular basis, but it would be because Jesus followed the LAW of Jehovah his father and we do not. Its really that simple. The thing that makes us most different from our own master and that causes all the sin in our lives as Christians is the fact that the church in the West does not teach the Law of Yahvah.

Many claim that this is because the "New Covenant" spoken of by the Prophet Jeremiah is here already on earth, and that's why Christians do not follow the Law. This is a miss reading of the word. The new covenant will come AFTER the resurrection of all the dead in the final judgment if you continue to read Jeremiah and Isaiah all the way.

Yahvah says in Jeremiah 31:31 "behold the days will come where I will make a New Covenant, and put my LAW in there inward parts".

The LAW will still be there, however WE, the keepers of this new covenant will be like Jesus, LIVING the law and not just reading, or having to study it.

Yahvah promises that there will be a new heaven and a new earth.

Isiah 65: 17:"17For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind."

But Jesus is clear, that until that day when the new heaven and earth comes, all the law must be done.

Matthew 5:17 "17Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

"18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

Plus Yahvah says to keep the LAW to on thousand generations to Moses:

Deuteronomy 7:9 "9Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations".

1 Chronicles 16:15 "15Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;

The point is that Moses only got the law 3758 years ago and a generation is measured by 40 years. 40 years times 1000 years is 40 thousand years. We did not get the law 40,000 years ago so it is still in effect no matter how you read it.
So until an New Heaven and Earth Arrives with the New Covenant the Old Law, despite the teachings of the ROMAN Paul is still in effect.

Why is that I ask the Christian body? Are we to be made as the original children who themselves rebelled in the desert even unto the days of Solomon? Do we not see it fit to do the will and the bidding of Yahvah, the Father of Jesus Christ? It is written in the books of the New Testament Matthew 7 that Jesus says "21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Sound familiar? We as Christians must ask our selves on what grounds does the Master stake his claim of rejection to such seemingly worthy recipients? Well it would be rooted in the fact that most of the so called people of GOD today, are not people of God at all, but people of themselves. People of their own fashioning made after the guidance of their own hands and after the traditions of their fathers churches. There is no Mosaic law in them.

How will the Master of Mosaic law recognize these workers if they did not complete the Law of Yahvah as well as the law of charity. They satisfy their own souls leaving YAH for want. They are as empty vessels in the site of GOD who ring loudly only due to their emptiness. The stocked flagons ring quietly through time, and those who seek do find them. They are full of the Law which is the good wine. I ask all Christians to begin at sun up tomorrow and make yourselves ready to greet the Sabbath at Sundown Friday night. Friday and Saturday you do not work after the law of Jesus. Tell your bosses that that's the law, and if you get fired then take up your cross and suffer if you have too. Get fired, loose all your comforts if you have to, Matthew 10:37-39 " 37He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 39He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. 40He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me."

He that loves anything at all in this world more that the Father of Jesus cannot come into heaven but will be shut out. I know that the preachers are not telling you that, but my friends it's the TRUTH. Suffer for the cause of Christ if you have to and suffer proud with strength and dignity. You wont get nails pounded into you now will you? It wont be that bad. Don't be afraid of anything. Besides it might bring you to be closer to family by all living together if that should happen. The point is, follow that law of Yahvah to the end no matter what happens to you or anyone around you with courage and faith because it is a just cause and YAHVAH Will reward you with everlasting life for doing it. Matthew chapter 5 : Jesus says:

"16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 17Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.Isiah 56: "

6Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;

7Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people..
