We are

Elul is the name of the sixth
month by the two verses below:

Requirements to please Yehovah
Deut. 10
[12] And now, Israel, what does Yehovah your God require of you, but to fear Yehovah your
God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Yehovah your God
with all your heart and with all your soul,
[13] To keep the commandments of Yehovah, and his statutes,
which I command you this day for your good?
[14] Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is Yehovah's your
God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
[15] Only Yehovah had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he
chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
[16] Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no
more stiffnecked.
[17] For Yehovah your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a
mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons,
nor taketh reward:
[18] He does execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow,
and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
[19] Love you therefore the stranger: for you were strangers in the land
of Egypt.
[20] You shall fear Yehovah your God; him shall thou
serve, and to him shall thou cleave, and swear by his name.
[21] He is your praise, and he is your God, that have done for you these
great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
[22] Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons;
and now Yehovah your God have made you as the stars of heaven for multitude.

O man, what is good; and what does Yehovah require of you, but to do justly, and to love
mercy, and to walk humbly with your God

God is my portion
Pss.73 [26] My flesh and my heart faileth:
but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for
ever.
Pss.119 [57] You are my portion, O
Yehovah: I have said that I would keep your words.
Pss.142 [5] I cried unto you, O Yehovah:
I said, You are my refuge and my portion in the land of the
living.
Lam.3 [24] Yehovah is my portion,
saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Homosexuality, lesbianism and being
effeminate is Sin.
You must REPENT.
homosexuality. Sexual orientation to
persons of the same sex. Sexual activity with another of the same sex.
lesbianism. Sexual orientation of women
to women.
Lev.18 [22] Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with
womankind: it is abomination.
Lev.20 [13] If a man also lie with mankind, as he
lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall
surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Exod.22 :19 Whosoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.
1 Cor.6:[9] Know you not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived:
neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate,
nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
Gen. Chap. 13:13 But the men of Sodom [were] wicked and
sinners before Yehovah exceedingly.
A few other chapters:
2 Thes.1
[1] Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus,
unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the
Messiah:
[2] Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua
the Messiah
[3] We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet,
because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of
you all toward each other aboundeth;
[4] So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your
patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
[5] Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye
may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
[6] Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to
them that trouble you;
[7] And to you who are troubled rest with us,
when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
[8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey
not the gospel of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah:
[9] Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of
the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
[10] When he 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.
[11] Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you
worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and
the work of faith with power:
[12] That the name of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah may be glorified in
you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Yeshua the
Messiah.
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 the Lord 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.
[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] The Lord 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 the Lord.
[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 the 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 1
[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 Jesus Christ.
[5] I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this,
how that the Lord, 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 you.
[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.
[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, the Lord 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, be glory and majesty, dominion
and power, both now and ever. Amen.
In
closing for now:
As we
just read, there are requirements to please God…
