We read from law and the prophets
every Sabbath
60 times in the Gospels and letters it uses the word Sabbat!
Acts.13[13] Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.[14] But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.[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.15[21] For Moses of old time hath in
every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath
day.
Luke.4[16] And he, Yeshua / Jesus came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.[17] And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias.
Acts.13:27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
Acts.13[42] And when the Jews were gone
out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached
to them the next sabbath.
[44]And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God

The tree of the knowledge of good and evil
Gen.2 [9] And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
[16] And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:[17] But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil , thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Gen.3 [5] For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
[22] And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Deut.1 [39 ] Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil , they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
2Sam.19 [35 ] I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?
Heb.5 [14] But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
--------------
Isa.29[ 13] Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: [14 ] Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
[15] Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
1Cor.1 [19 ] For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent . [20] Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
1Cor.2 [4] And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: [5] That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
1Cor.3 [19 ] For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written , He taketh the wise in their own craftiness .
Job.5 [13 ] He taketh the wise in their own craftiness:
--------------
1Cor.8 [1] .... Knowledge puffeth up ...
Isa.43 [27] Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
Mal.2 [12] The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar , out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.
1Cor. 13 [2 ] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing .
No King, No Torah so you do your onw thing?
Deut.17
[18
] And it shall be, when
he ( the King ) sitteth
upon the throne of his kingdom, that
he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before
the priests the Levites:
[19] And it shall
be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may
learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these
statutes, to do them:[20] That
his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from
the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may
prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.
Deut. 12 [8 ] Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
Judg. 17 [6 ] In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Judg. 21 [25 ] In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
Pss. 36 [2 ] For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
Prov. 3 [7 ] Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
Prov. 12 [15 ] The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
Prov. 16 [2 ] All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes ; but the LORD weigheth the spirits.
Prov. 21 [2 ] Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
Prov. 30 [12 ] There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
Isa. 5 [
20] Woe unto them that call
evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! [21
] Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and
prudent in their own sight! [22
] Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength
to mingle strong drink:[23]
Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the
righteous from him!

Yeshua, Paul, Apollos and the Apostles and others taught in the Temple and synagogues
They were not being taught ( by men who did not receive Messiah Yeshua! )
-----------
Don't fear you will be put out of the synagogues
John.9 [ 22 ] These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews : for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Messiah / Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue .
John.12 [ 42 ] Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue :
John.16 [ 2 ] They shall put you out of the synagogues : yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
----------
This is why you don't have them teach you: They don't have Messiah Yeshua!
Yeshua the Messiah said to the Pharisees,
" ye are not of God "
Zech.8 [23] Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
This verse above is clearly not talking about Jews in Judaism who have not received the Messiah Yeshua. Please read below:
anti-missionaries are not of God, they deny that Yeshua is the Messiah and that He came in the flesh
1John.2 [22 ] Who is a liar but he that "denieth that Jesus is the Messiah / Christ"? "He is antiMessiah / antichrist", that denieth the Father and "the Son" .
[23] Whosoever "denieth the Son", the same hath not the Father:
John 5 [23] That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
Yeshua the Messiah said to the Pharisees:
John.8 [47] He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because "ye are not of God" .
1John.4 [ 3 ] And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is "not of God" : and this is that spirit of antichrist , whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.]
[6] We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us . Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
John.3 [ 18 ] He that believeth on him ( Yeshua ) is not condemned:
but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
[36 ] He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and " he that believeth not the Son shall not see life"; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
1John.5 [1] Whosoever believeth that Yeshua / Jesus is the Messiah / Christ is born of God:
If you don't believe that Yeshua / Jesus is the Messiah / Christ you are not born of God
2John.1 [7 ] For many "deceivers" are entered into the world, who confess not that Yeshua is the Messiah / Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
[9] Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Messiah / Christ, "hath not God".
He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
[10] If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:[11] For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Rom. 11 [28]
As concerning the gospel, they are
enemies for your sakes:
but as touching the election, they are beloved for
the fathers' sakes.
Please read all of Romans 11

A new creature

John.3 [1 ] There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:[ 2] The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.[ 3] Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. [4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?[5 ] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. [6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. [7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again .[8 ] The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.[9 ] Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?[ 10] Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel , and knowest not these things?[ 11] Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.[12] If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
John.7 [50 ] Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)
John.19 [39 ] And there came also Nicodemus , which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
1Pet.1 [23 ] Being born again , not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
2Cor.5 [17] Therefore if any man be in Messiah / Christ, he is a new creature : old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Gal.6 [15] ... in Messiah / Christ - Yeshus / Jesus ... a new creature.

Put off the old man ( of sin )
Rom.6
[1] What shall
we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
[2] God forbid. How shall we,
that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
[3] Know ye not, that so many
of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
[4] Therefore we are buried
with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the
dead by the glory of the Father, even so
we also should walk in newness of life.
[5]
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall
be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
[6] Knowing this,
that our old man is crucified with him,
that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth
we should not serve sin.
[7] For he that is dead is freed
from sin.
Eph.4
[22] That ye
put off concerning the former conversation
the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful
lusts;
[23] And
be renewed in the spirit of your mind
;
[24] And that ye
put on the new man,
which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Col.3
[5] Mortify
therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness,
inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
[6] For which things' sake the
wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
[7] In the which ye also walked
some time, when ye lived in them.
[8] But now
ye also put off all these
; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of
your mouth.
[9] Lie
not one to another, seeing that
ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
[10]
And have put on the new man
, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him
that created him:
[11] Where there is neither
Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor
free: but Christ is all, and in all.

Acts.22 [3 ] I Paul, 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 the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
Phil.3 [8 ] Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Messiah Yeshua / Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Messiah / Christ,
1Pet.1
[18] Forasmuch as ye know that
ye were not redeemed with corruptible things
, as silver and gold,
from your
vain conversation
received
by tradition from your fathers
; [19] But with the precious blood of Christ, as
of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

All need the Saviour, Messiah Yeshua
Pss.14 [3] They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Pss.53 [3] Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Rom.3 [10] As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
[12] They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Shalom
