Always remember:
Embellished made-up stories are still lies!
Sad to say, I know most of the world is getting
ready to do the made up Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Chanukah and then Christmas.
I get so many emails about these
holidays to buy, buy, buy.
Stores can’t be setup fast enough for
these days to make money. Another year goes by and a new generation of the
youth is deceived.
-------------------------
“Tis the season to be pagan” is all around us!
I am reminded
always to inform you to beware of the false image
of love, false emotions, loneliness, depression,
financial drain, suicide.
Be aware of the artificial, false festival lights and music they put
up.
Satan really sets
the stage for you.
Beware if you feel or hear a voice telling you to separate yourself from the
congregation, go off on your own and read or
whatever.
Scriptures says:
Prov.11 [14] Where no counsel
is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
You think I made up the whole “going into debt scenario”?
Well here is a recent article from: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/17/shoppers-are-still-paying-off-debt-from-2016-holidays.html
An alarming number of shoppers are
still paying off debt from last Christmas - 2016
As the holiday
season approaches, the pressure to spend spikes
This year, gift-buying
Americans plan to spend $660 on average.
That's
according to new data from NerdWallet's 2017 Consumer Holiday Shopping Report, which
analyzed spending and behavior trends of more than 2,000 Americans aged 18 and
over.
And
holiday-induced debt is a growing problem. Although survey respondents say they
plan to spend roughly the same amount as they spent last year, 24 percent of
shoppers say they overspent in 2016, while 27 percent admit to not making a
budget at all.
Even
a budget is only a good start.
"There's
this myth that planning ahead and budgeting always ensures you don't overspend.
But in reality, creating and even sticking to a budget won't make you immune to
holiday debt," Courtney Jespersen, a consumer savings expert at NerdWallet, says in the survey. "It's so important to
set a realistic ceiling for your spending."
During
the 2016 season, boomers proved most likely to take on debt to finance their
purchases, with 63 percent of respondents copping to the habit. Other
generations took on debt as well, including 58 percent of Gen-Xers and 40 percent of millennials.
What's alarming
about this pattern is that many Americans are still carrying last year's debt
as they head into yet another holiday season.
Millennials are the worst culprits
here: 24 percent still haven't paid off credit card debt incurred during the
2016 shopping season, while 16 percent of Gen-Xers
haven't and only 8 percent of boomers haven't.
How
long did you take to pay off credit card debt from the 2016 holiday shopping
season?
This is
particularly worrisome for millennials because many
are still building credit, which allows you to make larger purchases in the
future, such as a car or a house.
Debt can also
be emotionally heavy and a source of stress in your relationships.

The new moon is coming again soon -
the ninth month of God called Chislev כִסְלֵו
We will let you know which day it will
occur
Zech.7 [1] And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that
the word of Yehovah came unto Zechariah in the fourth
day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu
Let’s explore:
The ninth month, winter time – Chislev – כִסְלֵו, part of the
calendar of God
Here are some verses of much evil that was
done by people that would not hear “The Word of Yehovah”
sayings…
1Chr.27
[1] Now the children of Israel after their number, to wit, the chief
fathers and captains of thousands and hundreds, and their officers that served
the king in any matter of the courses, which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year,
of every course were twenty and four thousand.
[12]
The ninth captain for the ninth month
was Abiezer the Anetothite,
of the Benjamites: and in his course were twenty and
four thousand.
Ezra.10 [9] Then all the men of Judah
and Benjamin gathered themselves together unto Jerusalem within three days. It
was the ninth month, on the twentieth
day of the month; and all the people sat in the street of the house of God,
trembling because of this matter, and for the great rain. [10] And Ezra
the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have
transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.
Neh.1 [1] The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in
the month Chisleu, in the twentieth year,
as I was in Shushan the palace,
[2] That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he
and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had
escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem. [3] And they
said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province
are in great affliction and reproach: the wall
of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.
Jer.36 [1] And it came to pass in the
fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of
Judah, that this Word came unto Jeremiah from Yehovah, saying,
[2] Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I
have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the
nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the
days of Josiah, even unto this day.
[3]
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do
unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive
their iniquity and their sin.
[4] Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah:
and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Yehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a
book.
[5] And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go
into the house of Yehovah:
[6] Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written
from my mouth, the words of Yehovah in the ears of
the people in Yehovah's house upon the fasting day:
and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all
Judah that come out of their cities.
[7] It may be they will present their supplication before Yehovah, and will return every one
from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that Yehovah
hath pronounced against this people.
[8] And Baruch the son of Neriah did according
to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of Yehovah
in Yehovah's house.
[9] And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim
the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that
they proclaimed a fast before Yehovah to all the
people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah
unto Jerusalem.
[10] Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Yehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah
the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court,
at the entry of the new gate of Yehovah's house, in
the ears of all the people.
[11] When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had
heard out of the book all the words of Yehovah,
[12] Then he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber:
and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the
scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah,
and Elnathan the son of Achbor,
and Gemariah the son of Shaphan,
and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the
princes.
[13] Then Michaiah declared unto them all the
words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
[14] Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the
son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah,
the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying,
Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in
the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah
took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
[15] And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So
Baruch read it in their ears.
[16] Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were
afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king
of all these words.
[17] And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us
now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
[18] Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me
with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
[19] Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee,
thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be.
[20] And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the
roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told
all the words in the ears of the king.
[21] So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the
roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe's
chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and
in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.
[22] Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the
ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.
[23]
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three
or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and
cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed
in the fire that was on the hearth.
[24]
Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their
garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
[25]
Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah
and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that
he would not burn the roll: but he would not hear
them.
[26]
But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of
Azriel, and Shelemiah the
son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah
the prophet: but Yehovah hid them.
[27]
Then the word of Yehovah
came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the
words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
[28] Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words
that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king
of Judah hath burned.
[29] And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim
the king of Judah, Thus saith Yehovah;
Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The
king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to
cease from thence man and beast?
[30] Therefore thus saith
Yehovah of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the
throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat,
and in the night to the frost.
[31] And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their
iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them;
but they hearkened not.
[32]
Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all
the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah
had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.
Hag.2 [10] In the four and twentieth
day of the ninth month, in the second
year of Darius, came the word of Yehovah
by Haggai the prophet, saying, [11] Thus saith Yehovah of hosts;
Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,
[12] If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his
skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be
holy? And the priests answered and said, No.
[13] Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean
by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests
answered and said, It shall be unclean.
[14] Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this
people, and so is this nation before me, saith Yehovah; and so is every work of their hands; and that
which they offer there is unclean.
[15] And now, I pray you, consider from this day and upward, from before
a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of Yehovah:
[16] Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures,
there were but ten: when one came to the pressfat for
to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.
[17] I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye turned not to me, saith Yehovah.
[18] Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth
day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of Yehovah's temple was laid, consider it.
[19] Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet
the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not
brought forth: from this day will I bless you.
[20] And again the word of Yehovah came unto
Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,
[21] Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah,
saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;
[22] And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the
strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and
those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.
[23] In that day, saith Yehovah
of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant,
the son of Shealtiel, saith
Yehovah, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith Yehovah of hosts.
Zech.7 [1] And it came to pass in the
fourth year of king Darius, that the word of Yehovah
came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth
month, even in Chisleu; [2] When they
had sent unto the house of God Sherezer and Regem-melech, and their men, to pray before Yehovah,
[3] And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of Yehovah of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I
weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?
[4] Then came the word of Yehovah
of hosts unto me, saying,
[5] Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying,
When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month, even those seventy
years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me?
[6] And when ye did eat, and when ye did drink, did not ye eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?
[7] Should ye not hear the words which Yehovah
hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in
prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the
south and the plain?
[8] And the
word of Yehovah came unto Zechariah, saying,
[9] Thus speaketh Yehovah of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew
mercy and compassions every man to his brother:
[10] And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor;
and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
[11] But they refused to hearken, and
pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that
they should not hear.
[12] Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear
the law, and the words which Yehovah of hosts hath
sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from Yehovah of hosts.
[13] Therefore it is come to pass, that as he
cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith Yehovah of hosts:[14] But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the
nations whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them,
that no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land
desolate.

Trouble always comes
by breaking God’s Law and Order
The law from Genesis
Gen.26
[1]
And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the
days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king
of the Philistines unto Gerar.
[2] And Yehovah appeared unto him, and said,
Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
[3] Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee;
for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will
perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy
father;[4] And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of
heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall
all the nations of the earth be blessed;
Because that Abraham obeyed and kept:
My voice
My charge
My commandments
My statutes
My laws
--------------------------------
It’s the LAW
Remember, when talking about the law, there are many
divisions of the law, there are different laws for different situations…
The term law is like an onion, when you peel it, there are
many layers.
You need a torah mindset to discern which layer we are
talking about in each scripture we might read.
Here
are some of the scriptures with the word law, too many to list.
Let’s start:
Pss.40[8] I
delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is
within my heart.
Pss.94 [12] Blessed is the
man whom thou chastenest, Yehovah, and teachest him out of thy law; [13] That thou mayest give
him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for
the wicked.
Pss.119 [18] Open thou mine eyes, that
I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
[29]
Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law
graciously.
[30] I
have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.
[31] I have stuck unto thy testimonies: Yehovah, put me
not to shame.
[32] I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt
enlarge my heart.
[33] Teach me, Yehovah, the
way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
[34] Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I
shall observe it with my whole heart.
[43]
And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy
judgments.
[44] So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.
[51]
The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I
not declined from thy law.
[53]
Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked
that forsake thy law.
[55]
I have remembered thy name, Yehovah, in
the night, and have kept thy law.
[61]
The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.[70]
Their heart is as fat as
grease; but I delight in thy law.
[77]
Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live:
for thy law is my delight.
[85]
The proud have digged pits
for me, which are not after thy law.
[92]
Unless thy law had been my delights, I should
then have perished in mine ffliction.
[97]
O how love I thy law! it is my meditation
all the day.
[109]
My soul
is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law.
[113]
I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love.
[126]
It is time for thee, Yehovah, to
work: for they have made void thy law.
[136]
Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep
not thy law.
[142]
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and
thy law is the truth.
[150]
They draw
nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy
law.
[153]
Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.[163] I
hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.
[165]
Great peace have they which love thy
law: and nothing shall offend them.
[174]
I have longed for thy salvation, Yehovah; and thy law is my delight.
---------------------
Jer.32 [23] …they
obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all
that thou commandedst them to do: therefore
thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:
Dan.9 [11] Yea, all
Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not
obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is
written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against
him.
Pss.1 [1] Blessed is the
man that walketh not in
the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the
seat of the scornful. [2] But his delight is in the
law of Yehovah; and in his law
doth he meditate day and night.
Pss.78 [10] They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;
Pss.105 [43] And he brought forth his
people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:[44] And
gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the
people; [45] That they might observe his statutes, and
keep his laws. Praise ye Yehovah.
Isa.42 [4] He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till
he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.[24] Who
gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not Yehovah, he
against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk
in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.
Jer.44 [23] Because ye have burned incense, and
because ye have sinned against Yehovah, and have not obeyed the voice of Yehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies;
therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.
Dan.9 [10] Neither have we obeyed the voice of Yehovah our
God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
------------------------
Matt.5 [17] Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I
am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
[18] For 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.
Matt.7 [12] Therefore
all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to
them: for this is the law and the prophets.
Matt.11 [13] For
all the prophets and the law prophesied until
John.
Matt.12 [5] Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath
days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath,
and are blameless?
Matt.22 [36] Master, which is the
great commandment in the law?
[37] Yeshua said unto
him, Thou shalt
love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy mind.
[38] This is the first and great commandment.
[39] And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour
as thyself.
[40] On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
------------------
Matt.23 [23] Woe unto you, scribes
and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of
mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have
done, and not to leave the other undone.
Luke.2 [22] And when the days of
her purification according to the law of (of God which He gave unto) Moses were accomplished,
they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;[23] (As it is written in the law of Yehovah,
Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy
to Yehovah;)[24]
And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of Yehovah, A
pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
[25] And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem,
whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the
consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
[26] And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see
death, before he had seen the Lord's Messiah.
[27] And he came by the Spirit into the temple:
and when the parents brought in the child Yeshua,
to do for him after the custom of the law,[39]
And when they had performed all things according to the
law of Yehovah,
they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Luke.5 [17] And it came to pass on
a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of
every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was
present to heal them.
Luke.10 [26] He said unto him, What is written in
the law? how readest
thou?
Luke.16[16] The law and
the prophets were until John: since
that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth
into it.[17] And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle
of the law to fail.
Luke.24 [44] And
he said unto them, These are the words which I spake
unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which
were written in the law (of God which He gave unto)
Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
John 1 [17] For
the law was given (of God which He gave unto)
Moses, and grace and truth came by Yeshua Messiah.
[45] Philip findeth
Nathanael, and saith unto him, We
have found him, of whom (God gave unto) Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Yeshua
of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
John.7 [19] Did
not (God give) Moses to give unto you the law, and yet
none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye
about to kill me?
[23] If a man on the sabbath
day receive circumcision, that the law(of God which He gave unto) Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at
me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath
day?
[49] But this people who
knoweth
not the law are cursed.
---------------------
John 8 [5] Now (God which gave unto) Moses the law, commanded us,
that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
John.12 [34] The
people answered him, We have heard out of the law
that Messiah abideth for ever: and how sayest
thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of
man?
Acts.5 [34] Then stood there up one
in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel,
a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and
commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
Acts.6 [13] And
set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth
not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place,
and the law:
Acts.13 [15] And after the reading of the law and the prophets the
rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have
any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
Acts.21[20] And when they heard it,
they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest,
brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which
believe; and they are all zealous of the law:
Acts.22[3] I am verily a man which
am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the
feet of Gamaliel,
and taught according to the perfect manner of the law (of God which He gave unto) the fathers, and was zealous toward
God, as ye all are this day.
[12] And one Ananias, a devout
man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which
dwelt there,
Acts.23[3] Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee,
thou whited
wall: for sittest
thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be
smitten contrary to the law?
Acts.24 [14] But this I confess unto
thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my
fathers, believing all things which are written in the
law and in the prophets: [15] And have hope toward God, which they
themselves also allow, that there shall be a
resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
Acts.28 [23] And when they had
appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he
expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Yeshua,
both out of the law (of
God which He gave unto) Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning
till evening.
Rom.2 [12] For
as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many
as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
[13] For not the
hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be
justified.
Rom.3 [19] Now
we know that what things soever
the law saith, it saith to them who
are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world
may become guilty before God.
[20] Therefore by the deeds of the law there
shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of
sin.
[21] But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
[22] Even the righteousness of God which is by
faith of Yeshua
Messiah unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
[23] For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
[24] Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Yeshua
the Messiah:
[25] Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood,
to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through
the forbearance of God;
[26] To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just,
and the justifier of him which believeth in Yeshua.
[27] Where is boasting then? It is excluded.
By
what law? of works? Nay:
but by the law of faith.[28]
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
[31] Do we then
make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
-----------------
Rom.4 [13] For
the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to
his seed, through the law (of animal sacrifice),
but through the righteousness of faith (for forgiveness in Yeshua’s
Blood).
[14] For if they which are
of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none
effect:[15]
Because the law worketh wrath:
for where no law is, there is no transgression.
[16] Therefore it is of faith, that it might be
by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that
only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham;
who is the father of us all,
Rom.5 [13] (For until the law sin
was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.[20]
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin
abounded, grace did much more abound:
Rom.6 [14] For
sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not
under the law (of animal sacrifice), but
under grace (the free gift of Yeshua’s blood).
[15] What then? shall
we sin, because we are not under the law(of animal
sacrifice), but under grace? God forbid.
Rom.7 [1] Know ye not, brethren,
(for I speak to them that know the law,) how
that the law hath dominion over a man as long
as he liveth?[2]
For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the
law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the
husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of
her husband.
[4] Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law (of
animal sacrifice) by the body of Messiah; that ye should be married to
another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth
fruit unto God.
[5] For when we were in the flesh, the motions
of sins, which were by the law, did work in our
members to bring forth fruit unto death.
[6] But now we are delivered
from the law (of Levitical system), that being
dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not
in the oldness of the letter.
[7] What shall we say then? Is the law (of Levitical system),
sin? God forbid.
Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt
not covet.
[8] But sin, taking occasion by the commandment,
wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without
the law sin was dead.
[9] For I was alive without
the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
[12] Wherefore the law
is holy, and the commandment holy, and just,
and good.
[14] For we know (now)
that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
[22] For I delight in the law of God
after the inward man:
[23] But I see another
law in my members, warring against the law of
my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the
law of sin which is in my members.
[25] I thank God through Yeshua
Messiah our Lord. So then with the mind (my conscience
of the commandments) I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Rom.8 [2] For
the law of the Spirit of life in Yeshua
the Messiah hath made me free from the law of sin and
death.
[3] For what the law
could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh (of the people) God sending
his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the
flesh:
[4] That the righteousness
of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but
after the Spirit.
[7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against
God: for it is not subject to the law of God,
neither indeed can be.
Rom.9 [3] For I could wish that myself were
accursed from Messiah for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: [4] Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth
the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; [5]
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Messiah came, who is
over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
[31] But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath
not attained to the law of righteousness.
[32] Wherefore? Because they sought it not by
faith, but as it were by the works of the law (of the Levitical
system). For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
[33] As
it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone
and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Rom.10 [4] For Messiah is the end (goal) of the law for righteousness to every
one that believeth.
[5]For Moses describeth
the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which
doeth those things shall live by them.
Rom.13 [8] Owe no man any
thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth
another hath fulfilled the law.[10] Love worketh
no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the
fulfilling of the law.
1Cor.7 [39] The
wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth;
but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
1Cor.9 [8] Say I these things as a
man? or
saith not the law the
same also?
[9] For it is written in the law (of God which He gave unto) Moses, Thou shalt
not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the
corn.
Doth God take care for oxen?
[10] Or saith he it
altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he
that ploweth
should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope
should be partaker of his hope.
[11] If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall
reap your carnal things?
[19] For though I be
free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain
the more.
[20] And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I
might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I
might gain them that are under the law;
[21] To them that are without law, as
without law, (being not without law to God, but under
the law to Messiah,) that I might gain them that are without law.
1Cor.14 [21] In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips
will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith
the Lord.[34]
Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them
to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
1Cor.15 [56] The
sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the
law.
Gal.2 [16] Knowing that a man is
not justified by the works of the law(of Levitical system),
but by the faith of Yeshua Messiah, even
we have believed in Yeshua Messiah, that
we might be justified by the faith of Messiah, and not by the works of the law(of Levitical system):
for by the works of the law (of Levitical
system), shall no flesh be justified (now)
.
[19] For I through the law am dead to the law(of Levitical
system now), that I might live unto God.
[20] I am crucified with Messiah: nevertheless I
live; yet not I, but Messiah liveth in me: and
the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God,
who loved me, and gave himself for me.
[21] I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if
righteousness come by the law (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices), then Messiah is dead in vain.
Gal.3 [2] This
only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices), or by the hearing of faith?
[3] Are ye so foolish? having
begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh (of animals)?
[5] He therefore that ministereth
to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles
among you, doeth he it by the works of
the law (of Levitical system,
animal sacrifices), or by the hearing of faith?
[10] For as many as are
of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed
is every one that continueth not in all things which are
written in the book of the law to do them.
[11] But that no man is justified by the law (of Levitical system,
animal sacrifices now) in the sight of
God, it is evident: for, The just shall live
by faith (in Yeshua’s blood).
[12] And the law
(of Levitical system,
animal sacrifices) is not of faith:
but, The man that doeth
them shall live in them.
[13] Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law (which is the
judgments, the punishments), being made a curse for us: for it is
written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
[14] That the blessing of Abraham might come on
the Gentiles through Yeshua Messiah; that
we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
[15] Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though
it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth,
or addeth
thereto.
[16] Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith
not, And
to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Messiah.
[17] And this I say, that the covenant, that was
confirmed before of God in Messiah, the law,
which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should
make the promise of none effect.
[18] For if the inheritance be of the law(of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices), it is no more of promise: but God gave it to
Abraham by promise.
[19] Wherefore then serveth
the law? (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices) It was added because of transgressions,
till the seed should come to
whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a
mediator.
[20] Now a mediator is not a mediator of one,
but God is one.
[21] Is the law (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices) then against the promises of God? God forbid:
for
if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness
should have been by the law.
[22] But the scripture hath concluded all under sin,
that the promise by faith of Yeshua
Messiah might be given to them that believe.
[23] But before faith (Messiah) came, we were
kept under the law (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices), shut up unto the faith which should
afterwards be revealed.
[24] Wherefore the law (of
Levitical
system, animal sacrifices) was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Messiah
(our sacrifice now), that we might be justified
by faith.
[25] But after that faith is come, we are no
longer under a schoolmaster (of Levitical
system, animal sacrifices).
[26] For ye are all the children of God by faith in Yeshua
the Messiah.
------------------
Gal.4[1] Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a
child, differeth
nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
[2] But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
[3] Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of
the world:
[4] But when the fulness
of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the
law,[5]
To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of
sons.
[21] Tell me, ye that desire to be under
the law,(of a schoolmaster, the Levitical system,
animal sacrifices), do ye not hear the law?
Gal.5 [4] Messiah is become of no
effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the
law (of a schoolmaster, the Levitical
system, animal sacrifices); ye are fallen from grace, (the free gift
that is in Yeshua’s
blood).
[14] For all the law
is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt
love thy neighbour
as thyself. [15] But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be
not consumed one of another.
[16] This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye
shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
[17] For the flesh lusteth against the
Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the
other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
[18] But if ye be led of
the Spirit, ye are not under the law (of a schoolmaster, the Levitical system,
animal sacrifices).
[19] Now the works of the flesh are manifest,
which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
[20] Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife,
seditions, heresies,
[21] Envyings,
murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such
like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past,
that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
[22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith,
[23] Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
[24] And they that are Messiah's have crucified the flesh with the affections
and lusts.
[25] If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
[26] Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one
another.
----------------------------------
Gal.6 [1] Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a
fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an
one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
[2] Bear ye
one another's burdens, and so fulfil
the law of Messiah.
----------------------
Eph.2 [14] For he is our peace, who hath made
both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; [15] Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments (of the retribution for breaking the commandments) contained
in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
[16] And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having
slain the enmity thereby:
[17] And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that
were nigh.
------------------------
1Tim. 1[7](Some people,
even today)
Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor
whereof they affirm.
[8] But we know that
the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
[9] Knowing this, that the
law (of the retribution for breaking the commandments) is not made
for a righteous man, but for the lawless and
disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for
murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, [10] For
whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers,
for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is
contrary to sound doctrine;
[11] According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed
to my trust.
-------------------
Heb.7 [5] And verily they that
are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a
commandment to take tithes of the people according to
the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins
of Abraham:
[6] But he whose descent is not counted from
them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
[7] And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
[8] And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth
them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
[9] And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed
tithes in Abraham.
[10] For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec
met him.
[11] If therefore perfection were by the Levitical
priesthood, (for under it the people received
the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise
after the order of Melchisedec, and not
be called after the order of Aaron?
[12] For the priesthood being changed, there is
made of necessity a change also of the law.[16] Who is made,
not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless
life.
[13] For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth
to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
[14] For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda;
of which tribe Moses spake nothing
concerning priesthood.
[15] And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec
there ariseth
another priest,
[16] Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the
power of an endless life.
[17] For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever
after the order of Melchisedec.
[18] For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the
weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
[19] For the law (of a schoolmaster, the Levitical system,
animal sacrifices) made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better
hope did (Messiah’s blood); by the which we draw
nigh unto God.
[20] And inasmuch as not without an oath he was
made priest:
[21] (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him
that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not
repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
[22] By so much was Yeshua made a surety
of a better testament.
[23] And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to
continue by reason of death:
[24] But this man, because he continueth ever,
hath an unchangeable priesthood.
[25] Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come
unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make
intercession for them.
[26] For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled,
separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
[27] Who needeth
not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own
sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up
himself.
[28] For the law maketh
men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was
since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for
evermore.
-----------------------------
Heb.8[1] Now of the things which we have
spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right
hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
[2] A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord
pitched, and not man.
[3] For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore
it is of necessity that this man have
somewhat also to offer.
[4] For if he were on earth, he should not be a
priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
[5] Who serve unto the example and shadow of
heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the
tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou
make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in
the mount.
[6] But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is
the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
--------------------------
Heb.9 [19] For when Moses had
spoken every precept to all the people according to
the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and
scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, [20]
Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
[22] And almost all things are by the law purged
with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
---------------------
Heb.10 [1] For the law having a shadow of good things
to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices
which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.[8]
Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for
sin thou wouldest
not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are
offered by the law;
[2] For then would they not have ceased to be
offered? because
that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
[3] But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every
year.
[4] For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take
away sins.
[5] Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith,
Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a
body hast thou prepared me:
[6] In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
[7] Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to
do thy will, O God.
[8] Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering
for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst
pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
[9] Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh
away the first,
that he may establish the second.
[10] By the
which will we are sanctified through the offering of the
body of Yeshua
Messiah once for all.
--------------------------
Jas.2[9] But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit
sin, and are convinced of the law as
transgressors. [10] For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in
one point, he is guilty of all.
[11] For he that said, Do
not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery,
yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
[12] So speak ye,
and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. [13] For he
shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed
no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against
judgment.
--------------------
Jas.4 [11] Speak not
evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his
brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh
evil of the law, and judgeth
the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a
judge. [12]
There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest
another?
----------------
In closing: My brother John says:
1John.3 [4] Whosoever
committeth
sin transgresseth
also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
