Today, we sadly use the Gregorian calendar from Pope Gregory; from the 1500’s.

 

October -- the eighth month – Today it is the 10th month

Middle English octobre
Latin October
Latin octo "eight" + -ber (adj. suffix)
Latin october mensis "eighth month"

October has always had 31 days.

 

Today is Oct.21, 2023

 

Yehovah has His own calendar which is deleted from the world 

 

We are now in the eight month, Bool, day 5

 

Bool - 1 Kings 6:38 - In English, scripture calls it Bul - Not called Cheshvan or Mar Cheshvan as Judaism states

 

1Kgs.6 [38] … in the month Bul, which is the eighth month

 

Today’s topic:

 

We live by every word of God

 

Lately, I have noticed some words in scripture causing problems.

 

Yeshua said:

Matt.12 [36] But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

 

[37] For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.

 

When you use a bible concordance you select the word(s) that fits your bible verse, not every word.

 

Greek and Hebrew words have many meanings in the 21 century.

 

For an example, I looked up the word Idle from Matt.12:36 above

 

G692 ἀργός -argos

From G1 (as a negative particle)

inactive, that is, unemployed; (by implication) lazy, useless: - barren, idle, slow. - Total KJV occurrences: 8

 

Here is a Hebrew meaning:

Then I looked up in Hebrew a word for idle:

H7503  רָפָה

râphâh

A primitive root; to slacken (in many applications, literally or figuratively): - abate, cease, consume, draw [toward evening], fail, (be) faint, be (wax) feeble, forsake, idle, leave, let alone (go, down), (be) slack, stay, be still, be slothful, (be) weak (-en) - Total KJV occurrences: 46

 

Again, when you use a bible concordance you use the word(s) that fits your bible verse, not every word.

 

The concordances have gone wild with all the new versions of Bibles out there in the world.

 

 

Recently we were told; don’t say the names of the months in scripture, we don’t want to offend people.

 

I am more worried about offending God.

 

Here is some scripture:

Here is what God says about His word

 

Prov.30 [5] Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

 

Pss.12 [6] The words of Yehovah are pure words:

as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

 

Pss.33 [4] For the word of Yehovah is right; and all his works are done in truth.

[6] By the word of Yehovah were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

Prov.4 [5] Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

Prov.5 [7] Hear me now therefore, O you children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.

Prov.8 [8] All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.

 

Every Word of God

Deut.8

[1] All the commandments which I command you this day shall you observe to do, that you may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which Yehovah sware unto your fathers.
[2] And you shall remember all the way which
Yehovah your God led you these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you, and to prove you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments, or no.

[3] And he humbled you, and suffered you to hunger, and fed you with manna, which you knew not, neither did your fathers know; that he might make you know that man does not live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yehovah does man live.

 

Yeshua quoted this:

 

Matt.4 [4] But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

 

Luke.4 [4] And Yeshua answered him, saying, it is written, that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

 

Prov. 22 [17] Bow down your ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply your heart unto my knowledge.
[18] For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you; they shall withal be fitted in your lips.
[19] That your trust may be in
Yehovah, I have made known to you this day, even to you.


[20] Have not I written to you excellent things in counsels and knowledge,[21] That I might make
you know the certainty of the words of truth;

that you might answer the words of truth to them that send unto you?

 

 

Other words, with old problems:

 

For the last time and to put this to rest:

 

As the minister and a spiritual forensic detective,

I recently researched (up to 10/20/2023) these names:

Jethro, Reuel, Raguel, Midian, Kenites, Hobab until I came to this point:

 

I can only agree with:

According to a Bible dictionary, it says there is uncertainty pertaining to the identity of Moses father-in-law.

 

The nature of the relationship of names one to another, is uncertain.

 

This is not a new disagreement.

 

This is an old argument with no answer.

 

Unbeknown to me was this problem.

 

I must admit I did not know this disagreement was going on for a long time in the bible world.

 

So you see, we are not the first to have this disagreement.

 

I'm sorry for participating in this old problem and disagreement with no answer.

 

So what do we do, leave the congregation or go on in God?

 

I choose go on with the people of God.

 

You see, when there is no answer to a bible problem, we move on and leave it there.

 

We did solve the Josh. 4 question pertaining to the 2 sets of twelve stones.

 

Psalm 45:1 – To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim,(any lily-like flower)

for the sons of Korah, Maschil, (instruction, passage for learning; wisdom-song put to music) A Song of loves.

 

We do see some verses that pertain to the Messiah, some we are not 100% sure, so we move on

 

 

Saul / Paul said:

 

1Thes.5 [21] Prove all things; (and we do)

hold fast that which is good.

 

2 Cor.13 [1]This is the third time I am coming to you.

In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

 

 

Forgiveness is the answer

 

Matt.6:9

Yeshua said:

After this manner therefore pray you:

Our Father which is in heaven, Hallowed be you name,
Your kingdom come.

Your will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:

For yours are the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.

[14] For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

[15] But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

 

Yeshua said:

Matt.18 [15] Moreover if your brother shall trespass against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone: if he shall hear you, you have gained your brother.

[16] But if he will not hear you, then take with you one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

[17] And if he shall neglect to hear them,

tell it unto the church: (the minister)

but if he neglect to hear the church, (the minister)

let him be unto you as an heathen man and a publican.

 

[21] Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord Yeshua, how often shall my brother (or sister) sin against me, and I forgive him, until seven times?


[22]
Yeshua said unto him, I say not unto you, until seven times: but, until seventy times seven. (Another words, all the time)

Yeshua said:

 

[23] Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

[24] And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.


[25] But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.


[26] The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.

 

[27] Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.


[28] But
the same servant went out, and found one of his fellow servants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, pay me that you owe.


[29] And his fellow servant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.


[30] And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

 

[31] So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

[32] Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O you wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you desired me:

 

[33] Should not you also have had compassion on thy fellow servant, even as I had pity on you?


[34] And his lord was wroth and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.


[35] So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you if you from your hearts forgive not everyone his brother (or sister) their trespasses.

 

 

In closing for today:

We live by every Word of God

Prov.13 [13] Whoso despises the word shall be destroyed

But he that fears the commandment shall be rewarded.

 

Remember, forgiveness is the key for getting forgiveness from God

 

Soon:

Halloween was banned Halloween was not celebrated in this country until 1845

 

Christmas was banned in 1659 in the new land know as America

 

Let nothing or no one separate you from God or the people of the Living God of Israel.

Follow Yeshua the Messiah, the Word of God, onward in God…

Be safe…

Shabbat Shalom
