For your information, I
want you to know the new moon maybe Saturday or
Sunday evening, we will have to watch
It will be the 2nd month of God called Ziv / Zif,
1 Kgs. 6 [1] And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Yehovah.
זִו - ziv - brightness, (figuratively) the month of flowers
***Make sure
you change your Judaism calendars – The 2nd month is not Iyyar as Judaism states, it is Ziv as scripture stated it.

Our testimony, the record of our short lives

Matt. 5
[14] Ye are the light of the
world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a
bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the
house.
Let your
light so shine before men, that
they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
---
Luke. 8 [16] No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.
---
Luke 11 [33] No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of
light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also
is full of darkness.
Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness. If thy whole body
therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full
of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee
light.
---
Phil. 2 [14] Do all things
without murmurings and disputings:[15] That ye may be
blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a
crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as
lights in the world;
---
What is
your testimony?
2 Thes. 1 [10] When Yeshua shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be
admired in all them that believe (because our
testimony among you was believed) in that day
2 Tim. 1[8] Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord Yeshua, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;
Heb. 3[5] And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;
Heb. 11[5] By faith Enoch was translated that he should
not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before
his translation he had this testimony, that he
pleased God.
---
Rev. 6[9] And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Rev. 11 - the 2 Witnesses
[7] And when they shall have finished
their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the
bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill
them.
Rev. 12[11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
----------------
We don’t want to do any deeds or give great occasion
to the enemies of the Yehovah to blaspheme
נָאַץ nâ'ats, naw-ats'
A primitive root; to scorn; abhor, (give occasion to)
blaspheme, contemn, despise, flourish, provoke.
Σκανδαλον skandalon skan'-dal-on
A scandal; a snare (figuratively cause of displeasure or
sin): - occasion to fall (of stumbling), offence, thing that offends,
stumbling-block.
Neither do we want to give any offense to the house of God
Rom.14 [13] Let us not therefore
judge one another any more: but judge this rather,
that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.
-----------------
Saul tells the Corinthians and us:
1Cor.9 [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.
[22] To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all
things to all men that I might by all means save some. [23] And this I do for
the gospel's sake…
---
1Cor.10 [32] Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: [33] Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
--------------------
Our testimony lives on after we die and is told many years after the fact, possibly many times - consider these verses below which are many years apart:
Num. 3 [2] And these are the names of the sons of Aaron; Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
[4] And Nadab and Abihu died before Yehovah, when they offered strange fire before Yehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the sight of Aaron their father.
Num. 26 [60] And unto Aaron was born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. [61] And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before Yehovah.
1Chr. 24 [1] Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
[2] But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Elezar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
---------------
Other rebels in the camp (also among the leaders)
Korah, Dathan and Abiram, and On - took
men: two hundred and fifty princes of
the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown.
Let’s read:
Num. 16
[1] Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
[2] And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two
hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous
in the congregation, men of renown:
[3] And they gathered themselves
together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take
too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and
Yehovah is
among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of Yehovah?
[4]
And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
[5] And he spake
unto Korah
and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow Yehovah
will shew
who are his, and who is holy; and will cause him to come near unto him: even
him whom he hath chosen will he cause to come near unto him.
[6]
This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
[7] And put fire therein, and put incense in them before Yehovah to morrow:
and it shall be that the man whom Yehovah doth choose, he shall be
holy: ye take too much upon you, ye sons of Levi.
[8] And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, ye sons
of Levi:
[9] Seemeth it
but a small thing unto you, that the God of Israel hath separated you from the
congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the service of the
tabernacle of Yehovah,
and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
[10] And he hath brought thee near to him, and all thy brethren the
sons of Levi with thee: and seek ye the priesthood also?
[11] For which cause both thou and all thy company are
gathered together against Yehovah: and what is Aaron, that ye murmur against
him?
[12] And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram,
the sons of Eliab:
which said, We will not come up:
[13] Is it a small thing that thou hast brought us up out of a land that floweth
with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except thou make thyself
altogether a prince over us?
[14] Moreover thou hast not brought us into a land that floweth
with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: wilt thou
put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
[15]
And Moses was very wroth, and said unto Yehovah, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass
from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
[16] And Moses said unto Korah, Be thou and all thy
company before Yehovah,
thou, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
[17] And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring ye
before Yehovah
every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; thou also, and Aaron, each
of you his censer.
[18] And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense
thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses
and Aaron.
[19] And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of Yehovah appeared unto all the
congregation.
[20] And Yehovah spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
[21] Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them
in a moment.
[22] And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation?
[23]
And Yehovah spake
unto Moses, saying,
[24] Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle
of Korah, Dathan,
and Abiram.
[25] And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram;
and the elders of Israel followed him.
[26] And he spake
unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these
wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
[27] So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
[28] And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that Yehovah hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
[29]
If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the
visitation of all men; then Yehovah hath not sent me.
[30] But if Yehovah
make a new thing,
and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up,
with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit;
then ye shall understand that these men have provoked Yehovah.
[31]
And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that
the ground clave asunder that was under them:
[32] And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their
houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
[33] They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and
the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.
[34]
And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they
said, Lest
the earth swallow us up also.
[35] And there came out a fire from Yehovah, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
[36]
And Yehovah spake
unto Moses, saying,
[37] Speak unto Eleazar
the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning,
and scatter thou the fire yonder; for they are hallowed.
[38] The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad
plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before Yehovah,
therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of
Israel.
[39] And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
[40] To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before Yehovah; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as Yehovah said to him by the hand of Moses.
[41]
But on the morrow all the congregation of the children
of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, Ye
have killed the people of Yehovah.
[42]
And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and
against Aaron,
that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation:
and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Yehovah appeared.
[43] And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
[44] And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
[45] Get you up from among this congregation, that I
may consume them as in a moment.
And they fell upon their faces.
[46]
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from
off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and
make an atonement
for them: for there is wrath gone out from Yehovah; the plague is begun.
[47] And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the
congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among
the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement
for the people.
[48] And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
[49] Now they that died in the plague were fourteen
thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
[50] And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation: and the plague was stayed.
-----------
Our testimony lives on after we die and is told many years after the fact,
possibly many times – consider these verses many years after the fact:
Num. 26 [9] And the sons of Eliab; Nemuel, and Dathan, and Abiram. This is that Dathan and Abiram, which were famous in the congregation, who strove against Moses and against Aaron in the company of Korah, when they strove against Yehovah:
[10] And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, what time the fire devoured two hundred and fifty men: and they became a sign.
[11] Notwithstanding the children of Korah died not.
Deut. 11 [6] And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:
Psa. 106 [17] The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
Jude 1 [11] Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. (Korah)
-----------
Our testimonies live on after we die and are told.
Just think of:
The angels that sinned
Cain
Time of Noah, the flood
Sodom and Gomorrah
Time of Lot
Balaam the son of Bosor
---
The
testimony of evil, fallen angels
Rev. 12 [7] And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
[8]
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
[9] And the great dragon was cast out, that
old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the
whole world: he was cast out into the earth,
and his angels were cast out with him.
Peter, in his letter, brings to remembrance all these testimonies from the
past
2 Pet. 2
[1]
But there were false prophets also among the people,
even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily
shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying Yehovah that bought them, and
bring upon themselves swift destruction.
[2] And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom
the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
[3] And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make
merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth
not, and their damnation slumbereth
not.
Starts here:
[4] For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
[5] And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
[6] And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
[7]
And delivered just Lot, vexed with the
filthy conversation of the wicked:
[8] (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing,
vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
[9] Yehovah knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
[10] But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities
[11]
Whereas angels, which. are
greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before Yehovah.
[12] But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed,
speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in
their own corruption;
[13] And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count
it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting
themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
[14] Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin;
beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices;
cursed children:
[15]
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the
wages of unrighteousness;
[16] But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's
voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
[17]
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom
the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
[18] For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure
through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean
escaped from them who live in error.
[19] While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants
of corruption: for of
whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
[20] For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through
the knowledge of Lord and Saviour Yeshua
the Messiah, they are again
entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the
beginning.
[21] For it had been better for them not to have known the way of
righteousness, than,
after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto
them.
[22] But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The
dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her
wallowing in the mire.
Jude, in his letter, brings to remembrance all these testimonies from the
past
Jude
[1]
Jude, the servant of Yeshua
the Messiah, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by
God the Father, and preserved in Yeshua the Messiah and
called:
[2] Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
[3] Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common
salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye
should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the
saints.
[4] For there are certain men crept in
unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation,
ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the
only Lord God, and our Lord Yeshua the Messiah - Yeshua
Messiah.
[5] I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how
that Yehovah,
having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that
believed not.
[6] And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto
the judgment of the great day.
[7]
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha,
and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to
fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example,
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
[8] Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise
dominion, and speak evil of
dignities.
[9] Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he
disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing
accusation, but said, Yehovah
rebuke thee.
[10] But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what
they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
[11] Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. (Korah)
[12]
These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding
themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds;
trees whose fruit withereth,
without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
[13] Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering
stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
[14]
And Enoch also,
the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, Yehovah cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
[15] To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly
among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of
all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
[16] These are murmurers,
complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh
great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
[17] But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the
apostles of our Lord Yeshua
the Messiah ;
[18] How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time,
who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
[19] These be
they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
[20] But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith,
praying in the Holy Ghost,
[21] Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our
Lord Yeshua
the Messiah unto eternal life.
[22] And of some have compassion, making a difference:
[23] And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating
even the garment spotted by the flesh.
[24] Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present
you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
[25] To the only wise God our Saviour, (the Word made flesh - Yeshua the Messiah) be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
------------------------------
Other rebels in the camp found out
Other writers, in their letters, also brings to remembrance testimonies
from the past, consider these verses below:
Ananias, with Sapphira
Acts.5
[1]
But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira
his wife, sold a possession,
[2] And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it,
and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
[3] But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan
filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost,
and to keep back part of the price of the land?
[4] Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and
after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why
hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
[5] And Ananias hearing these words fell
down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that
heard these things.
[6] And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and
buried him.
[7]
And it was about the space of three hours after,
when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
[8] And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so
much? And she said, Yea,
for so much.
[9] Then Peter said unto her, How is it that
ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold,
the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry
thee out.
[10] Then fell she down straightway at his
feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by
her husband.
[11] And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard
these things.
------------
****What more can I say about “Judas”, he betrayed Yeshua, his testimony will live on until the end of the world
Luke.22 [48] But Yeshua said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? – watch out for false kisses………
------------
These
are just a few of the rebels that thought they were hiding in the camp and
forgot about their testimonies while they lived – their testimonies also lived
on in time.
They
forgot God sees all. God waits and sees if they will repent, if not, it seems
like God lets sin ripen, then He executes judgment.
Even Solomon’s evil deeds lived on:
------------------------
Your testimony
I hear some
people say, I don’t care what
people think of me.
These are not the
words of a true believer in the God of Israel
Our testimonies will live on after us
-------------
You are the "Temple of the Living God"
and the "Light of the World"
**Dress code** - People ask me all the time what should I wear, as far as a
dress code, all you have to do is remember that you are the "Temple of the Living God" and the "Light of the World".
This should tell you how to dress. God says be "HOLY" not sexy.
1Cor.3 [16] Know ye
not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?[17] If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy;
for the temple
of God is holy, which temple ye are.
1Cor.6 [18] Flee
fornication.
Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that commiteth
fornication sinneth against his own body.
[19]
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost
which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
[20] For ye are bought
with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are
God's
1 Pet.1 [13] Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind,
be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at
the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah; [14] As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in
your ignorance:
[15] But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; [16]
Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
------------------------
Lev. 20 [7] Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am Yehovah your God.
Heb. 12 [14] Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see Yehovah:

Saul says:
1 Tim. 2 [9]… that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; but (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works
Shamefacedness: Modesty or (towards God) awe - reverence
Sobriety: Soundness of mind, that is, (literally) sanity or (figuratively) self control: - soberness, sobriety, moderate as to opinion or passion) - discreet
------------------------
Don’t separate yourself from the flock, the wolf is out there
Acts.20 [28] Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
[29] For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
[30] Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

As we make our "7 week" journey to meet God again, ask yourselves these 2 questions:
How are you behaving these 50 days? (Physically and Spiritually)
Are you truly born again of the Spirit?
"Let us “Tarry” ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high"
***Are you tarrying or are you leaving?
------------------------
It is good to always examine ourselves and prove all things
2 Cor. 13 [5] Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Yeshua the Messiah is in you, except ye be reprobates?
1 Thes. 5 [21] Prove all things; hold fast that which is
good.
