Let’s Pray
-------------
My ministry is to bring up topics in the Bible that have never been
discussed, mentioned or deleted in your life that God wants you to know.
-------------
Today we use the
Gregorian calendar (Pope Gregory, 1500's) – August
14, 2010
--------------
We
restore the calendar of God
We are now in the 3rd
day of the 6th month of God
Change
your Judaism calendars; Judaism is wrong again by calling the 6th month
Elul, no scripture to back that up.
------------
All my studies may be viewed at:
You can read them on my site at http://oneinmessiah.net/subjects.htm
You can hear them on my site at http://oneinmessiah.net/av.htm
You can see them on my site at http://oneinmessiah.net/videoFiles.htm
I would love to come and give a talk
at your congregation, school or home on the Jewish / Hebrew roots of your faith
from the Scriptures, not Judaism.

I explain the Sabbath, the 7th day, each week
This is how simple it is:
Exod. 20
[8] Remember the Sabbath day, to keep
it holy.
[9] Six days shalt thou labour, and do all
thy work:
[10] But the seventh day is the sabbath of
Yehovah thy God:
in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy
manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
[11] For in six days Yehovah made heaven and
earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore
Yehovah blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
------------
Deut. 5
[12] Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it,
as Yehovah thy God hath commanded thee.
[13] Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work:
[14] But the seventh day is the sabbath of Yehovah thy God: in it thou
shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant,
nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor
thy stranger that is within thy gates;
that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou.
[15] And remember that thou wast a servant in the
land of Egypt, and that Yehovah thy God brought thee out thence through a
mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore
Yehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
------------
Lev. 23
[3] Six days shall work be done:
but
the seventh day is the Sabbath of
rest, an holy convocation;
ye shall do no work therein:
it is the Sabbath of Yehovah in all your dwellings.
--------
Isa. 58 [13] If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the
sabbath a delight, the holy of Yehovah, honourable; and shalt honour
him,
1 - not doing thine own ways,
2 - nor finding thine own pleasure,
3 - nor speaking thine own words:
[14] Then shalt thou delight thyself in Yehovah;
and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee
with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the
mouth of Yehovah hath spoken it.
------------------------
Buying and selling is evil on the Sabbath
Neh. 13 [16] There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish,
and all manner of ware, and sold on the Sabbath
unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
[17] Then I
contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, what evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the Sabbath
day?
------------------------
We read from law and the prophets every Sabbath
like they did in the Book of Acts
60 times in the Gospels
and letters it uses the word Sabbath!
--------------------
Today's Topic
I hear each week how brothers and
sisters keep arguing with their same ungodly relatives and friends about scripture, a waste
of time and unprofitable.
Then they tell me they have a headache
and no peace.
The difference between
reasoning and debating
Debate - øåÌá /øéá - rı̂yb / rûb
- to strive, contend (with words), to make complaint, to quarrel, to contend
against
Reason - éëç - yâkach - A primitive root; to be right (correct); causatively to decide,
justify or convict: - appoint, chasten, convince, correct, dispute,
judge, maintain, plead, reason (together), rebuke, reprove
Isa.1 [18]
Come now, and let us reason together, saith
Yehovah: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though
they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
---------------
Let's go over a few scriptures:
Should we
debate or reason with unbelievers?
We
should reason, expound and testify to honest hearts
the Father is drawing to Messiah "only".
This is very important to remember:
John 6 [44] No man (or woman) can come to me (Messiah), except the Father which hath sent me (Messiah) draw him: and I
(Messiah) will raise him up at the last day.
--------------------
Paul taught:
Tit.3 [9] But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions,
and strivings about the law ; for they are
unprofitable and vain.
[10]
A man that is an heretic after the first and
second admonition reject; [11] Knowing that he
that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.
Heretic - schismatic, factious (dissension), a follower of a false doctrine
Schism - division or disunion,
esp. into mutually opposed parties.
A
formal division within, or separation from, a church or religious body over
some doctrinal difference
----------------
2 Tim. 2 [22] Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith,
charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
[23]
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that
they do gender strifes.
[24]
And the servant of the Lord must not strive;
but
be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient
[25]
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will
give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
[26]
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are
taken captive by him at his will.
------------------
1 Tim. 1 [3] As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into
Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they
teach no other doctrine,
[4]
Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions,
rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
[14] Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men,
that turn from the truth.
-----------------------------------
Debating, usually is not good
Rom. 1 [27] And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the
woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which
is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which
was meet.
[28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God
gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not
convenient;
[29]
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate,
deceit, malignity; whisperers,[30] Backbiters, haters of God,
despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
[31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection,
implacable, unmerciful:
[32] Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things
are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do
them.
2 Cor. 12 [20] For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such
as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there
be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes,
backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:[21 ] And lest, when I come
again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have
sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and
lasciviousness which they have committed.
-----------------------------------
Paul reasoned
Acts 17 [2] And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three
sabbath days reasoned with them out of
the scriptures,[3 ] Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have
suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach
unto you, is Christ.
Acts 18 [1] After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to
Corinth;[2 ] And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus,
lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had
commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.
[3] And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and
wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.[4] And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and
persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
[18]
And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of
the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila;
having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.[19 ] And he came to
Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and
reasoned with the Jews.
Acts 24 [1] And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with
the elders, and with a certain orator named Tertullus, who informed the
governor against Paul.
[2] And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying,
Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are
done unto this nation by thy providence,
[3] We accept it always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all
thankfulness.
[4] Notwithstanding, that I be not further tedious unto thee, I pray
thee that thou wouldest hear us of thy clemency a few words.
[5] For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of
sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect
of the Nazarenes:
[6] Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and
would have judged according to our law.
[7] But the chief captain Lysias came upon us, and with great violence
took him away out of our hands,
[8] Commanding his accusers to come unto thee: by examining of whom
thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.
[9] And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.
[10] Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak,
answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge unto
this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:
[11] Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve
days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.
[12] And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man,
neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
[13] Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.
[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.
[16] And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void
of offence toward God, and toward men.
[17] Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and
offerings.
[18] Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple,
neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
[19] Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had
ought against me.
[20] Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing
in me, while I stood before the council,
[21] Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them,
Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.
[22] And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of
that way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come
down, I will know the uttermost of your matter.
[23] And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let him have
liberty, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come
unto him.
[24] And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla,
which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in
Christ.
[25]
And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and
judgment to come Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this
time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.
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 Jesus, both out
of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
-------------
Satan is trying
to replace the God of Israel with
Another Yeshua / Jesus - Another Gospel -
Another Spirit
2
Cor. 11 [4] For if he that cometh preacheth another
Yeshua / Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit,
which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted,ye might well bear
with him. (Why would you do this?)
-------------------------
Gal.
1 [6] I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into
the grace of Messiah / Christ unto another gospel:
[7]
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Messiah / Christ.
[8] But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have
preached unto you, let him be accursed.
[9] As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have
received, let him be accursed.
[10]
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet
pleased men, I should not be the servant of Messiah / Christ.
[11] But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel
which was preached of me is not after man.[12] For I neither received it
of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah.
-----------
What don’t you understand about these
scriptures?
Matt.10 [34] Think not that I
am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. [35] For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against
her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Mic.7 [6] For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law
against her mother in law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
Matt.10 [21] And the brother
shall deliver up the brother to death, and the
father the child: and the children shall rise up
against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.[22 ] And ye
shall be hated of all men for my name's sake:
but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
Mark 13 [12] Now the brother
shall betray the brother to death, and the
father the son; and children shall rise up against
their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.[13 ] And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that
shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Luke 21 [16] And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and
kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they
cause to be put to death. [17] And ye shall be hated
of all men for my name's sake.[18 ] But there shall not an hair of your head
perish.[ 19] In your patience possess ye your souls.
John 16 [1] These things have I
spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
[2] They
shall put you out of the synagogues: yea , the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
----------------
Should we fellowship with unbelievers
or "anti-Messiah" people?
Neither give place to the devil
2 Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers : for what
fellowship
hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with
darkness?15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that
believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with
idols?
for ye are
the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk
in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore
come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the
unclean thing; and I will receive you. 18And will be a Father unto you, and ye
shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say, that
the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to
God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship
with devils.
Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of
darkness, but rather reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those
things which are done of them in secret.
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is
the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist
shall come, even now are there many antichrists ; whereby we know
that it is the last time. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us;
for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but
they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that ( Yeshua is the
Messiah ) Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and
the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that
acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are
entered into the world, who confess not that (
Yeshua the Messiah ) Jesus Christ is come in the flesh (of Israel ). This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
9 - Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of
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.
John 3 [18] He that believeth on him 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.
-------------
It
is not Lashon Hara – The Evil Tongue to name people who are evil and pervert
the Word of God.
Rom. 16 [17] Now I beseech you, brethren , mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary
to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them
.
2 Thes .3 [14] And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man , and have no company with him, that he
may be ashamed.
1Tim. 5 [20] Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also
may fear.
Just to name a few people to show it
is scriptural to name evil people.
Rom. 9 [13] As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated .
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,
1Tim. 1 [19] Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some
having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:[20] Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander ; whom I have delivered unto
Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
2Tim. 4 [14] Alexander the coppersmith did
me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:
3 John 1 [9] I wrote unto the church: but
Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us
not.[10] Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth,
prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither
doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and
casteth them out of the church.
------------------
In
closing:
Remember don’t try
to open your own doors of conversation with people the Father is not drawing to
Messiah (a very unprofitable time in God)
Matt.7
[6] Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls
before swine, lest they trample them under their feet,
and turn again and rend you.
Separate Yourselves
Havdalah
Havdalah is
Hebrew for separation. It refers to separating the sacred from the ordinary (also
with people), the sacred being the Sabbath day and the ordinary being the other
days of the week.
The Havdalah service formally ends the
Sabbath day and ushers in the regular week when we are once again engaged in
our worldly concerns.
We live in a
world of opposites. At the end of the Sabbath we are acutely aware of the
tensions between these worlds, being the spiritual and the carnal worlds.
James said:
1: [27] Pure
religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the
fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep
himself unspotted from the world.
Yeshua said:
John
16 [33] These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.
Shabbat Shalom
