LET’S DO A TEACHING ON GALATIANS.

Shalom,

THE TITLE OF OUR MESSAGE IS, LET’S DO A TEAHING ON GALATIANS.

And our opening verses are Galatians 3.1-2.

So let’s begin by reading Paul’s teachings to the Galatians 3.1-2.

GALATIANS 3.1  O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth whom before your eyes it is written that Yeshua The  Messiah, Jesus Christ, was before ordained to be crucified.

BEWITCHED means to be affected by witchcraft, or magic, or someone casting a spell over you. 

Who messed you up, Paul writes, to not obey The Truth?

Galatia, where The Galatians lived, was in modern day Ankara, Turkey.

KEY TO PAUL’S TEACHING TO THE GALATIANS, AND THE ENTIRE WORLD IS, O FOOLISH GALATIANS, WHO HAS BEWITCHED YOU THAT YOU SHOULD NOT OBEY THE TRUTH?

THE TRUTH IS GOD.

EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION IS THE TRUTH OF GOD THAT MUST BE OBEYED.  AND THAT TRUTH INCLUDES THE LAW OF MOSES.

THE GALATIANS WERE BEING TAUGHT NOT TO OBEY THE TRUTH. THEY WERE BEING TAUGHT NOT TO OBEY THE LAW OF MOSES.  THE SAME LIE THAT IS TAUGHT BY SO MANY TODAY, DON’T OBEY THE LAW OF MOSES BECAUSE  JESUS ABOLISHED THE LAW.  THAT IS A FLAT OUT LIE.  JESUS NEVER ABOLISHED THE LAW OF MOSES

THE TRUTH IS GOD.  EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION.  THAT IS THE TRUTH.

IN ESSENCE, PAUL WRITES, O FOOLISH GALATIANS, WHO HAS TAUGHT YOU NOT TO OBEY GOD?

DEUTERONOMY 32.1-4  ARE WORDS SPOKEN BY GOD THROUGH HIS PROPHET MOSES.

1/  GIVE EAR O YOU HEAVENS, (the angels) AND I WILL SPEAK.  AND HEAR O EARTH (all humanity, all the earth) THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH.

2/  MY DOCTRINE SHALL DROP AS THE RAIN, MY SPEECH SHALL DISTILL AS THE DEW, AS THE SMALL RAIN UPON THE TENDER HERB, AND AS THE SHOWERS UPON THE GRASS.

3/  BECAUSE I WILL PUBLISH THE NAME OF THE LORD.  ASCRIBE GREATNESS TO OUR GOD.

4/  HE IS THE ROCK, HIS WORK IS PERFECT.  FOR ALL HIS WAYS ARE JUDGMENT.  A GOD OF TRUTH, AND WITHOUT INIQUITY.  JUST AND RIGHT IS HE.

THE TRUTH IS GOD.  EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IS THE TRUTH THAT MUST BE OBEYED.  FOR GOD IS THE GOD OF ALL THE EARTH.

AND ALL HIS WAYS ARE JUDGMENT, MEANING, ALL GOD’S WAYS ARE ACCORDING TO TORAH, THE LAW OF MOSES, THAT IS THE LAW OF GOD.

EXODUS 13.9, EXODUS 16.4, JOSHUA 8.31, NEHEMIAH 8.8

IN ONE OF MY KING JAMES BIBLES, A COMMENTATOR DESCRIBES THE BOOK OF GALATIANS THAT PAUL WROTE TO THE CHRISTIAN CHURCHES IN GALATIA.

FIRSTLY THERE WERE NO CHRISTIANS IN PAUL’S DAY.  THEY WERE BELIEVERS IN THE MESSIAH YESHUA, JESUS THE MESSIAH.  SECONDLY, THERE WERE NO CHURCHES IN PAUL’S DAY, THEY WERE CONGREGATIONS THAT BELIEVED IN THE JEWISH MESSIAH YESHUA, JESUS.

THEN THE WRITER GOES ON TO SAY, THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN THESE CHURCHES (CONGREGATIONS) BECAUSE THE PEOPLE WERE BEING CONFUSED BY FALSE TEACHERS CALLED JUDAIZERS.  JUDAIZERS ARE DESCRIBED AS PEOPLE WHO TEACH GENTILES TO CONFORM TO THE SPIRIT, CHARACTER, PRINCIPLES, OR PRACTICE OF JUDAISM, TO BRING THEM INTO CONFORMITY WITH JUDAISM.

THAT IS JUST NOT TRUE.  PAUL WAS TEACHING THE GALATIAN BELIEVERS IN MESSIAH TO LIVE THEIR LIVES FOR GOD ACCORDING TO EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE.  AND THAT INCLUDES THE LAW OF MOSES THAT IS GOD’S LAW.

LOOK, WHEN SOMEONE SAYS OR WRITES SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT AGREE WITH WHAT GOD SAYS IN THE BIBLE, THAT TEACHING IS WRONG.

DEUTERONOMY 8.3, MATTHEW 4.4, LUKE 4.4

JESUS NEVER ABOLISHED GOD’S LAWS THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THE LAW OF MOSES.  MAN TRIES TO ABOLISH GOD’S LAWS, BUT LET ME TELL YOU, THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE, FOR THE WORD OF OUR GOD SHALL STAND FOREVER. 

ISAIAH 40.8, LUKE 8.21, REVELATION 1, 2, 9

GALATIANS 3.2  PAUL WRITES TO THE GALATIANS AND THE WORLD, THIS ONLY WOULD I UNDERSTAND FROM YOU, DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?

MY ANSWER IS BOTH.  IT IS WRITTEN THAT YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT, THAT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT, BY OBEYING THE LAW, AND HAVING FAITH IN MESSIAH YESHUA FOR ATONEMENT, WHO ALSO LEFT US AN EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW HIS STEPS WHO DID NO SIN, BY OBEYING TORAH, THE LAW OF MOSES.

AND THE NEW TESTAMENT BEARS ME OUT.

1/  JESUS IS GOD ALMIGHTY THE FATHER, THE MESSIAH, THE SPIRIT, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. 

JOHN 12.44-45, ISAIAH 48.16-17, JOHN 14.9, 21-24

JOHN 14.23  JESUS SAID, WE WILL COME UNTO HIM, AND MAKE OUR HOME WITH HIM. 

“WE “ARE THE ONE GOD, THE FATHER, THE MESSIAH YESHUA, AND THE SPIRIT, WHO ARE THE HOLY SPIRIT.

ALSO HEBREW BIBLE ISAIAH 9.5, CHRISTIAN BIBLE ISAIAH 9.6, ACTS 5.32, 1 PETER 2.21-22, MATTHEW 26.26-28

PAUL ALSO WRITES IN GALATIANS 3.2, DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH? 

THE SPIRIT PAUL IS SPEAKING OF IS THE HOLY SPIRIT.  THE HOLY SPIRIT IS GOD ALMIGHTY WHO IS MESSIAH YESHUA, THE FATHER, THE SON, THE SPIRIT, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.

DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?  I SAY BOTH.  BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW, AND THE HEARING OF FAITH. 

SEE MATTHEW 4.4, ROMANS 5.11

LISTEN TO THIS.  FAITH IS THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD, AND FIRMNESS IN GOD.

LIVING YOUR LIFE BY THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD IS OBEYING EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS.  FIRMNESS IS BEING FAITHFUL TO THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD BY OBEYING GOD’S SPOKEN WORD.

DEUTERONOMY 8.3, DEUTERONOMY 32.1-4, MATTHEW 4.4, LUKE 4.4, ROMANS 2.13

PAUL IS TEACHING THE GALATIANS AND THE WORLD TO LIVE BY FAITH.  TO LIVE BY THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD, LIVING BY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE.  THAT IS FAITH, AND THAT IS ALSO HOLINESS.

LET’S LOOK AT A FEW SCRIPTURES IN GALATIANS.

GALATIANS 3.8-9  ABRAHAM LIVED BY FAITH IN GOD.  HE OBEYED GOD.  HE KEPT GOD’S COMMANDMENTS, HIS STATUTES, AND HIS LAWS.  GENESIS 26.4-5

THEREFORE THE GENTILES, AND JEWISH PEOPLE, ARE JUSTIFIED, OR MADE RIGHTEOUS BY OBEYING GOD’S COMMANDMENTS, HIS STATUTES, AND HIS LAWS WRITTEN IN TORAH, THE LAW OF MOSES.

GALATIANS 3.10-11  THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.

AGAIN, FAITH IS THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD, AND YOUR FIRMNESS BY LIVING ACCCORDING TO EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE, AND HAVING MESSIAH YESHUA FOR YOUR ATONEMENT, WHO LEAVES US AN EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW HIS STEPS, WHO DID NO SIN BY OBEYING THE LAW.  THAT IS FAITH. 

HABAKKUK 2.4, 1 PETER 2.21-22, ROMANS 3.31

BELIEVING MAN’S TEACHING THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO OBEY GOD’S LAW IS A LIE STARTED BY SATAN IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. 

GENESIS 2.16-17, GENESIS 3.4

GALATIANS 3.13  CHRIST HAS REDEEMED, OR RESCUED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW.  THE CURSE OF THE LAW IS FOR NOT OBEYING ALL THE WORDS OF THE LAW TO DO THEM AS WRITTEN IN DEUTERONOMY 27.26.

READ DEUTERONOMY 28

BELIEVING IN JESUS DOES NOT EXCUSE YOU FROM OBEYING THE LAW.  BUT RATHER JESUS LEADS YOU TO THE LAW TO OBEY IT FOR YOUR GOOD SO THAT YOU WILL NOT SIN AGAINST GOD.

TORAH THE LAW OF MOSES IS GOOD.

WHEN YOU LIVE BY FAITH, BELIEVING IN MESSIAH YESHUA WHO IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD, THE FATHER, YOU OBEY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE THAT INCLUDES THE LAW.  AND YOU HAVE MESSIAH FOR YOUR ATONEMENT.  YOU ARE THEN RESCUED FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW BECAUSE YOU NOW OBEY THE LAW OF GOD. 

ACTS 24.14

GALATIANS 3.17  IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO ABOLISH THE LAW.  IT IS ALSO IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE THE LAW OF NO EFFECT, PAUL WRITES.

GALATIANS 3.22  LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WORD BELIEVE.  THE MEANING OF BELIEVE AND FAITH ARE ALMOST IDENTICAL.  BELIEVING IN GOD, AND BELIEVING IN MESSIAH YESHUA, MEAN, YOU HAVE FAITH BY BELIEVING THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD, AND LIVING YOUR LIFE BY THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD, AND TRUSTING YOUR WELL BEING TO GOD THE MESSIAH.

BUT GOD MAKES THE CHOICE OF WHO BELIEVES CORRECTLY, OR NOT.  THOSE WHO BELIEVE CORRECTLY IN MESSIAH AS THE BIBLE TEACHES, THAT MESSIAH IS GOD ALMIGHTY, THE FATHER, AND ALL THAT GOD IS, AND YOU LIVE BY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE, YOU ARE CHOSEN BY GOD TO BELIEVE, AND HAVE FAITH IN MESSIAH YESHUA.  JOHN 15.16

GALATIANS 3.24-25  THE LAW WAS OUR SCHOOLMASTER, GIVEN TO US BY GOD WHO IS OUR SCHOOLMASTER, WHO IS THE FATHER, MESSIAH YESHUA.  IT IS GOD OUR SCHOOLMASTER WHO BRINGS US TO MESSIAH YESHUA TO BE JUSTIFIED.  THAT IS TO BE RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH IN MESSIAH YESHUA. 

OUR SCHOOLMASTER, GOD ALMIGHTY, TEACHES US TO BELIEVE AND UNDERSTAND THAT MESSIAH YESHUA IS GOD ALMIGHTY THE FATHER, AND TO OBEY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS, AS THE LORD YOUR GOD REQUIRES OF YOU.

VERSE 25 READS IN THE KING JAMES BIBLE, BUT AFTER THAT FAITH IS COME, WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER A SCHOOLMASTER.

HERE THE SCHOOLMASTER IS CERTAINLY  NOT GOD BECAUSE WE ARE UNDER GOD FOREVER.

BUT THE SCHOOLMASTER WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER IS A MAN OR A WOMAN WHO TEACHES YOU.  BECAUSE THE ANOINTING WHO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHOM YOU HAVE RECEIVED OF GOD, LIVES IN YOU, AND TEACHES YOU.  AND YOU DO NOT NEED ANYONE TO TEACH YOU.  AND AS GOD HAS TAUGHT YOU, YOU SHOULD LIVE IN GOD. 1 JOHN 2.27

IN SUMMARY.  GALATIANS 3.26  FOR YOU ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN MESSIAH YESHUA.  BECAUSE YOU OBEY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS.  YOU ARE FIRM IN THE TRUTHFULNESS OF GOD.  YOU HAVE MESSIAH YESHUA FOR YOUR ATONEMENT.  AND MESSIAH IS YOUR EXAMPLE, TO FOLLOW HIS STEPS WHO DID NO SIN BECAUSE HE OBEYED THE LAW.  THAT IS FAITH THAT MAKES YOU A CHILD OF GOD.

THE NEW COVENANT IS YOUR ATONEMENT AND YOUR REPENTANCE.

Shalom,

Out Teaching will continue in The Book of  Ezekiel from Ezekiel 18.1-4.

AND THE TITLE OF OUR MESSAGE IS, THE NEW COVENANT IS YOUR ATONEMENT AND YOUR REPENTANCE.

So with that said, let’s read Ezekiel 18.1-4.

EZEKIEL 18.1  The WORD of The LORD came to The Prophet Ezekiel again, saying,

Let’s do a brief study on The Word, WORD, especially THE WORD OF THE LORD.

WORD IN HEBREW, AS IN THE WORD OF THE LORD, IS D’VAHR, MEANING OF COURSE, WORD. EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS. D’VAHR, AS IN D’VAHR YEHOVAH, OR THE WORD OF THE LORD, ALSO MEANS PROMISE. EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IS A PROMISE TO YOU. D’VAHR ALSO MEANS COMMANDMENT. EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IS A COMMANDMENT. D’VAHR ALSO MEANS LAW. EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IS LAW. D’VAHR ALSO MEANS DECREE. AS YOU KNOW, DECREE IS A FORMAL ORDER HAVING THE FORCE OF LAW. THUS EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS HAS THE FORCE OF LAW. 

Let’s take this brief Teaching of The Word of GOD a little further.

DEUTERONOMY 8.3 reads in most Bibles, Man does not live by bread only, but by Every Word that proceeds out of The Mouth of GOD does man live.

Actually, Deuteronomy 8.3 reads in The Original Hebrew, Man does not live by bread only but by all that proceeds out of The Mouth of GOD does man live.

The Hebrew for all is kahl meaning Every Word and Everything that proceeds out of The Mouth of GOD does man live.

THEREFORE IT IS SO VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THAT OBEYING EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION IS THE FOUNDATIONAL TEACHING OF GOD FOR YOU TO HAVE A GOOD, SUCCESSFUL LIFE ON EARTH, AND ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN.

JESUS REPEATS THOSE VERY WORDS IN MATTHEW 4.4, AND LUKE 4.4. JESUS SAID, IT IS WRITTEN, (IT IS WRITTEN IN DEUTERONOMY 8.3) MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.

JESUS NEVER ABOLISHED THE LAW OF MOSES. THE LAW OF MOSES IS NEVER ABOLISHED.

EZEKIEL 18.2 And GOD said to Ezekiel, What do you mean that you use this proverb concerning The Land of Israel, saying, the fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge?

My understanding of this proverb that The Jewish People spoke in those days means, Their children were suffering for the sins of their fathers.

And GOD said to Ezekiel in EZEKIEL 18.3, As I live saith The LORD, you shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.

Why? Because GOD says it is wrong.

Let’s read EZEKIEL 18.4. GOD says, Behold, all souls are Mine. As the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is Mine. The soul that sins, it shall die.

We have been teaching in this Congregation  for some twenty six years that The Bible Teaches that sin is Breaking Torah, The Law of Moses, which is The Law of GOD. NUMBERS 15.29-31, 1 JOHN 3.4

Children do not suffer for the sins of their fathers. They suffer for their own sins of disobeying GOD. And fathers do not suffer for the sins of their children. Fathers suffer for their own sins of disobeying GOD.

I often think of what GOD said to Moses after The Children of Israel sinned a great sin when they made the golden calf, and built an altar before it, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings to the idol, and sat down to eat and drink, and laugh and play. EXODUS 32.1-8, 30-33

In EXODUS 32.31-33 Moses pleaded with GOD to forgive their sin, and if not, Moses said to GOD, Blot me out of Your Book which you have written, which is The Book of Life. And GOD said to Moses, Whosoever has sinned against Me, him will I blot out of My Book.

FROM THE TIME ADAM AND EVE SINNED AGAINST GOD FOR DISOBEYING THE LORD, GOD ESTABLISHED A WAY TO MAKE ATONEMENT AND REPENTANCE TO BE WRITTEN IN GOD’S BOOK OF LIFE. AND THAT IS LIVING BY EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS, AND IT IS THE BLOOD THAT MAKES ATONEMENT.

LEVITICUS 17.11, EZEKIEL 18.21

Some people believe they can make atonement through payment of compensation for a wrong committed, or through suffering, or by performing certain rituals. or simply believing in Jesus Christ. THAT IS NOT BICLICAL, NOR IS THAT ATONEMENT OR REPENTANCE IN THE EYES OF GOD.

In Tabernacle and Temple times, atonement was made by the sacrifice of a clean animal, and its shed blood on The Tabernacle or Temple Altar, followed by Obedience to Torah,  The Law of Moses, doing that which is Lawful and Right.

TODAY, WITHOUT A TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM, GOD HAS MADE A NEW COVENANT FOR YOUR ATONEMENT, AND YOUR REPENTANCE, FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND FOR ALL THE WORLD.

THE NEW COVENANT IS OFTEN WRITTEN IN THE HEBREW BIBLE IN JEREMIAH 31.30-33 AND IN THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE IN JEREMIAH 31.31-34.

Jeremiah The Prophet lived some 2,600 years ago. And The LORD said to Jeremiah, Behold the days come.  

So GOD was speaking of a future time when He spoke to Jeremiah that GOD would make a New Covenant with The Jewish People who are The House of Israel, and The House of Judah, when Israel was a divided Kingdom. And making a New Covenant with The Jewish People, GOD also made the same New Covenant with the Gentiles. HEBREWS 10.16-17

And GOD said, Not according to The Covenant I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand and brought them out of the land of Egypt, which My Covenant they broke, although I was a husband to them, saith The LORD.

GOD’S Covenant is His Word that is Law. And we Jewish People for the most part disobey GOD’S Covenant that is Written from Genesis through Revelation. PSALM 105.8-10

And GOD said, But this shall be The Covenant that I will make with The House of Israel. AFTER THOSE DAYS, GOD SAID. WHAT DAYS? THE DAYS OF THE FIRST COMING OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH, JESUS CHRIST, SIX HUNDRED YEARS AFTER GOD SPOKE THESE WORDS TO JEREMIAH, 2,000 YEARS AGO.

THE COVENANT GOD MADE WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE IN THE DAYS OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH YESHUA IN ISRAEL IS THIS;

GOD MADE MESSIAH YESHUA’S SOUL AN OFFERING FOR SIN FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE, AND FOR THE SINS OF THE GENTILES 

ISAIAH 53.10

THE ENTIRE WORLD KNOWS OF THAT EVENT WHEN MESSIAH WAS KILLED BY THE ROMANS ON A ROMAN CROSS IN JERUSALEM.

THE JEWISH COURT IN JERUSALEM HANDED MESSIAH YESHUA OVER TO THE ROMANS FOR DEATH BECAUSE MESSIAH ANSWERED WHEN QUESTIONED THAT HE WAS THE MESSIAH.

MESSIAH YESHUA IS THE MESSIAH. HE IS ALSO GOD, GOD ALMIGHTY, THE GOD OF ISRAEL, HA SHEM ELOHIM, THE GOD OF ABRAHAM. ISAAC, AND JACOB.  MATTHEW 26.59-66

THE DEATH OF MESSIAH YESHUA BY THE JEWISH PEOPLE WAS ORDAINED BY GOD HIMSELF. NO OTHER NATION, NO OTHER PEOPLE HAD ANY CONCERN OR INTEREST FOR THIS JESUS, THIS MESSIAH YESHUA, BUT THE JEWISH PEOPLE. IT IS WRITTEN IN THE JEWISH NEW TESTAMENT.

BECAUSE IN THE UNSEARCHABLE KINDNESS OF THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, GOD ORDAINED HIS DEATH IN THE PERSON OF A HUMAN BEING IN MESSIAH YESHUA FOR THE ATONEMENT AND REPENTANCE OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND ALL THE WORLD.

BUT THIS IS SO VERY IMPORTANT. WHEN YOU RECEIVE AND BELIEVE IN MESSIAH YESHUA, THE JESUS CHRIST OF THE BIBLE WHO IS THE ONE GOD, THE FATHER, GOD ALMIGHTY, GOD SAYS IN JEREMIAH 31.33, I WILL PUT MY LAW IN THEIR INWARD PARTS, AND WRITE IT IN THEIR HEARTS, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.

BUT MILLIONS, PERHAPS BILLIONS, RECEIVE AND BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, THE MESSIAH YESHUA, BUT DO NOT OBEY GOD’S LAW, THE LAW OF MOSES THAT GOD WROTE IN YOUR INWARD PARTS, AND IN YOUR HEART.

BUT WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN JESUS, THE MESSIAH YESHUA, AND OBEY AND DO ALL GOD’S LAW, HIS TORAH, THE LAW OF MOSES, AND EVERY WORD GOD SPEAKS IN THE BIBLE FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION THAT GOD PUT IN YOUR INWARD PARTS, AND WROTE IT IN YOUR HEART, THAT IN FACT IS VERY EASY TO DO, YOU HAVE TURNED TO GOD, AND HAVE REPENTED BY TURNING FROM YOUR SINS OF BREAKING GOD’S LAW, THE LAW OF MOSES. YOU HAVE REPENTANCE WITH GOD.

BUT WHEN A PERSON DOES NOT DO AND OBEY GOD’S LAW, HIS LAWS FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION THAT GOD WROTE IN THEIR INWARD PARTS, AND IN THEIR HEART, GOD REMOVES HIMSELF FROM THOSE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY HAVE REJECTED GOD BY REJECTING HIS WORD THAT IS LAW FOREVER. JOHN 14.21-24

BUT FOR THOSE WHO BELEIVE IN MESSIAH YESHUA, AND DO AND OBEY GOD’S WORD AND HIS LAW FROM GENESIS THROUGH REVELATION THAT GOD HAS PUT IN YOUR INWARD PARTS, AND HAS WRITTEN IT IN YOUR HEART, GOD FORGIVES YOUR INIQUITY, AND REMEMBERS YOUR SIN NO MORE. YOU HAVE MADE ATONEMENT WITH GOD. FOR IT IS MESSAIH’S BLOOD THAT MAKES ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL. LEVITICUS 17.11

AND GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO BE A HOLY PEOPLE UNTO THE LORD YOUR GOD. THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO BE SPECIAL TO HIMSELF ABOVE ALL PEOPLE UPON THE FACE OF THE EARTH.

AND GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO BE HIS WITNESS AND HIS SERVANT TO KNOW AND BELIEVE GOD, AND TO UNDERSTAND THAT GOD IS GOD. AND BEFORE HIM THERE WAS NO GOD FORMED, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE AFTER HIM.

AND TO KNOW THAT BESIDE THE LORD THERE IS NO SAVIOR. DEUTERONOMY 7.6, ISAIAH 43.10-11

THE NEW COVENANT IS YOUR ATONEMENT AND YOUR REPENTANCE.

Shalom,

AND THE LORD SAID TO MOSES, SPEAK TO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL THAT THEY GO FORWARD.

Shalom,

Today is The Seventh Day of Passover. And Passover comes to a close this evening at sundown. And The Seventh Day of Passover is like The First Day of Passover, a Sabbath. No work of any kind is to be done, and no cooking of any kind is to be done on The Seventh Day of Passover.

And The LORD Commands us to hold a Holy Gathering, a Service Dedicated to The LORD Our GOD on The Seventh Day. This we are doing today.

Our Message will come from Exodus 14.1-10.

THE TITLE OF OUR MESSAGE IS, AND THE LORD SAID TO MOSES, SPEAK TO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL THAT THEY GO FORWARD.

And with that said, let’s read Exodus 14.1-10.

Last week our Study focused on the first Passover in Egypt some 3,400 years ago when after four hundred years of Egyptian slavery, GOD Commanded every family of The Children of Israel to take a perfect lamb for their households, and kill it in the evening of the fourteenth day of The First Hebrew Month. Exodus 12.1-2  For GOD said, It is The LORD’S Passover.

We Jewish People have been celebrating Passover for some 3,400 years as a reminder forever of The Greatness of GOD, and The Eternal Love that GOD has for His People.

And GOD Commanded The Jewish People to take the blood of the lamb and strike it on the door posts of their houses where they ate it, because GOD would pass through the land of Egypt that night and kill all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, and the firstborn animals, and destroy all the gods of Egypt. And GOD said, I will execute Judgment, I am The LORD.

And GOD said, The blood shall be to you a Miracle upon the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you when I strike and kill the Egyptians. And you shall remember this day in all your generations forever, and you shall keep it a Feast to The LORD throughout your generations forever, and you shall keep it a Feast by an Ordinance forever, GOD said.

And GOD in His Greatness has given the world another Passover lamb. That Passover Lamb is GOD ALMIGHTY IN THE PERSON OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH YESHUA, THE JESUS CHRIST OF THE BIBLE  Who gave His Life and shed His Blood as a Human Being some 2,000 years ago in Jerusalem on the first day of The Passover in Messiah’s day to be our Atonement for our sins.

And, and Messiah, Jesus Christ, left us an example that we should follow His Steps who did no sin. Not doing any sin is living your life according to Torah, The Law of Moses, for sin is the transgression of The Law of Moses. That is the example Messiah left us to follow, Live by Torah, The Law of Moses that will prevent you from sinning against GOD.

NUMBERS 15.30-31, 1 PETER 2.21-22, 1 JOHN 3.4, 1 JOHN 1.9, 1 JOHN 5.3

And when GOD sees that you believe in Messiah Yeshua, and live your life according to GOD’S Spoken Word in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses, GOD will forgive your sins and remember them no more.

DEUTERONOMY 8.3, MATTHEW 4.4, LUKE 4.4

And that Great blessing of GOD, Forgiving your sins, and remembering them no more, results in a Good, Prosperous Life, especially with GOD, and Eternal Life in Heaven with The LORD Your GOD.  JEREMIAH 31.31-34

AND YOU HAVE BECOME TO GOD A HOLY PEOPLE, AND GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU, AND YOU ARE SPECIAL TO THE LORD YOUR GOD ABOVE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE UPON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. AND YOU HAVE BECOME TO GOD A PEOPLE OF INHERITANCE.

DEUTERONOMY 4.20, DEUTERONOMY 7.6, ECCLESIASTES 7.20, MATTHEW 26.28

And GOD said to The Children of Israel after four hundred years of Egyptian slavery on the First Passover in Egypt, You shall eat matzah, unleavened bread. From the first day, you shall put away all leaven out of your houses, for whosoever eats unleavened bread from the first day until the seventh day of Passover, that person shall be cut off from Israel.

And at midnight, The LORD struck and killed all the firstborn Egyptians in the land of Egypt from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on the throne, to the firstborn captives that were in the dungeon, and all the firstborn animals.

And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there was a cry  in Egypt so great, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

And in haste, Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in the night, and said to them, Arise, Go out from my people, both you and The Children of Israel, and go serve The LORD as you have said. Take your flocks and your herds and be gone. And bless me also.

Why do anti-semites who despise GOD’S Chosen People, The Jewish People, think that GOD will bless them for hating Jews?

GOD’S promise to anti-semites is that He will curse them. He will curse them as GOD cursed Pharaoh by killing him and his entire army in the Red Sea, unless the anti-semites repent of their hate of Jewish People. For GOD says, I will Bless those who Bless you, that is The Jewish People and Israel, and Curse them who Curse The Jewish People and Israel. It is Written.

GENESIS 12.3, EZEKIEL 18.21, MATTHEW 25.31-46

And the Egyptians were urgent for The Children of Israel to leave Egypt, for they said, We will all be dead. And after four hundred and thirty years of living in Egypt, the final four hundred years in Egyptian slavery, some three million Jewish People were Delivered by GOD from Egyptian slavery.

And a mixed multitude of non Jewish People went up with them to The Promised land. For it is a night to be greatly observed to The LORD for bringing His People out from the land of Egypt. It is this night of The LORD to be observed by all The Children of Israel in our generations who for the past 2,750 years are known as The Jewish People.

The Words Jew and Jewish come from The Hebrew Y’hu’di, that comes from The Hebrew Y’hu’dah, or Judah, Meaning, Praiser of GOD. 2 KINGS 16.6

And GOD said to The Children of Israel in Egypt, One Law shall be for The Jewish People and the stranger who dwells among you. EXODUS 12.49

GOD’S One Law is His Spoken Word Written in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses written in The First Five Books of The Bible. Jesus is GOD. 

If you are not living by Every Word that GOD Speaks in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses, Written in The First five Books of The Bible, it is a very good idea for you to turn your life to that very requirement of GOD.

Because that is what is required of GOD to inherit Eternal Life from GOD, in The One Thousand Year Messianic Kingdom in Israel, and in Heaven in The New Jerusalem.

For GOD says, Man does not live by bread alone but by Every Word that proceeds out of The Mouth of GOD.

DEUTERONOMY 8.3, ZECHARIAH 14.1-21, MATTHEW 4.4, LUKE 4,4, REVELATION 21.1-2

GOD NEVER CHANGES WHAT HE SAYS THAT IS WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE. PEOPLE MAY TELL YOU THAT JESUS OR PAUL ABOLISHED THE LAW OF MOSES, OR MADE IT OF NO EFFECT, THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO OBEY IT. THAT IS A LIE BECAUSE NO ONE CAN CHANGE ANYTHING GOD SAYS.

TEACHING THAT JESUS OR PAUL OR ANYONE ABOLISHED THE LAW OF MOSES, OR MADE IT OPTIONAL, OR IT’S ONLY FOR THE JEWS IS A LIE OF SATAN FROM THE TIME OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN.

GENESIS 2.16-17, GENESIS 3.1-6, REVELATION 12.9

And it came to pass, The Bible says, the same day, The First Day of The First Passover, The LORD brought The Children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their masses.

And early in their Exodus from Egypt to The Promised Land Canaan that GOD gave to The Children of Israel for an Everlasting Possession to be called The Land of Israel, GOD had Moses Sanctify to The LORD, that is, Set Apart all the firstborn Jewish males, and the firstborn animals to GOD. Why? Because GOD said, Because all the firstborn are Mine, for on the day that I killed all the firstborn Egyptians in the land of Egypt, I Hallowed, The Hebrew for Hallowed is Kah’dash, Meaning, GOD made the firstborn Jewish males Holy, and Set them Apart for Himself, all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast. Mine shall they be, GOD said. I am The LORD.

GENESIS 17.7-8, EXODUS 13.1-2, NUMBERS 3.13

And the LORD went before The People by day in a Pillar of Cloud to lead them by the way, and by night in a Pillar of Fire to give them light to go by day and night. And GOD did not take away The Pillar of Cloud by day, or The Pillar of Fire by night from before The People until they entered The Promised Land.

And The LORD Spoke to Moses, saying, Speak to The Children of Israel that they camp by the Red Sea, for Pharaoh will say, The Children of Israel are entangled in the land, the wilderness has shut them in. And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart that he will follow after The People, and I will be honored upon Pharaoh, and upon all his armies, and masses, that the Egyptians shall know that I am The LORD. And The People camped by The Red Sea.

And it was told to the king of Egypt that The Children of Israel fled, and the heart of Pharaoh, and his servants was turned against The Children of Israel. And they said, Why have we done this that we have let Israel go from serving us?

And Pharaoh prepared his entire army to go after The Jews with six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them. And The LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he pursued after The Children of Israel.

And The Bible says, The Children of Israel went out with a high hand, meaning, I believe, They went out of Egypt proud and tall.

And the Egyptians pursued after them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his soldiers on horseback, and they reached them at the Red Sea, And when Pharaoh drew near, The Children of Israel were frightened.

And Moses cried out to The People, Do not fear them, Stand still and see the salvation of The LORD which He will show you today. For the Egyptians which you have seen today, you will see them again no more forever. For The LORD shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace.

And The LORD said to Moses, Speak to The Children of Israel that They Go Forward. And lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and The Children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the sea.

And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians and they shall follow after The People. And I will get honor for Myself upon Pharaoh, and upon all his army, upon his chariots, and upon those on horseback. And the Egyptians shall know that I am The LORD when I have gotten honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his soldiers on horseback.

And The Angel of GOD Who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind Israel, and came between the camp of the Egyptians, and the camp of Israel. And it was a cloud of darkness to the Egyptian army, but it gave light by night to The Children of Israel, so that the one did not come near the other all night.

And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and The LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land. And the waters were divided.

And The Children of Israel went into the sea upon dry ground. And the waters were a wall to them on the right hand and on their left.

And the Egyptians pursued after The Children of Israel into the sea. All Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his army on horseback. And in the morning, The LORD looked to the Egyptian army through The Pillar of Fire, and The Cloud, and The LORD destroyed the Egyptian army.

The LORD took off their chariot wheels that they drove heavily, so that the Egyptians said, Let us run from the face of Israel for The LORD fights for them against the Egyptians.

And The LORD said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea that the waters shall return upon the Egyptians, upon the chariots, and upon his army on horseback.

And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared. And the Egyptians fled from it. And the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the sea.

And the waters returned and covered the chariots, and all on horseback, and the entire army of Pharaoh that charged into the sea after GOD’S Chosen People. There remained not so much as one of them. But The Children of Israel walked on dry ground in the sea. And the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

Thus The LORD Saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore. And Israel saw The Great Work that The LORD did upon the Egyptians. And The People Feared The LORD, and Believed The LORD, and His Servant Moses.

THE LORD, HE IS GOD.

Therefore Go Forward in your life, for The LORD Your GOD will always open up for you The Red Seas of Life, and The Red Seas of troubles and fears when you live as GOD Commands you to live, by Every Word that Proceeds out of The Mouth of The LORD. Every Word Spoken by GOD written from Genesis through Revelation, and having Messiah Yeshua for your Atonement.

For when you live your life by Every Word GOD Speaks in The Bible, You have become a Holy People unto The LORD Your GOD. The LORD Your GOD has Chosen you to be a Special People to Himself above all people that are upon the face of the earth.

The LORD did not choose you because you were more in number than any people, for you are the fewest of all people, but because The LORD Loves You because you live your Life for GOD by Every Word GOD Speaks in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses, GOD’S One and Only Law for all the world.

And you have made atonement for your soul by THE BLOOD OF THE JEWISH MESSIAH YESHUA WHO IS GOD ALMIGHTY THAT MAKES ATONEMENT FOR YOUR SOUL.

FROM ABRAHAM TO THE FIRST PASSOVER 3,400 YEARS AGO.

Shalom,

This evening at sundown is the beginning of Passover, a seven day Festival of GOD that ends this coming Saturday at sundown, the third of April.

EXODUS 12.15

Happy Passover.

THE TITLE OF OUR MESSAGE IS, FROM ABRAHAM TO THE FIRST PASSOVER 3,400 YEARS AGO.

About 2,000 years after GOD Created the heavens and the earth and all that are in them, GOD took Abraham and Sarah out of the Gentiles to Create The Jewish People to be a Holy People to The LORD Their GOD.

Being a Holy People is living your life in obedience to Every Word GOD Speaks in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses.

And The LORD Our GOD Chose The Jewish People to be a Special Treasure to The LORD out of all The People that are upon the face of the earth.  And to be His Servant and His Witnesses to Know and Believe GOD, and understand that GOD is GOD, and before GOD there was no GOD formed, neither shall there be after Him.

And to know that GOD is The LORD and beside Him there is no Savior.

The LORD did not set His Love upon The Jewish People because they were more in number than any people, GOD said, for they were the fewest of all people, but because The LORD Loved The Jewish People, and because He would Keep The Oath that He Swore to our fathers did The LORD bring His People out of Egypt with a Mighty Hand, and Redeemed His People out of the house of slavery from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

And GOD made of Abraham a great nation.  And GOD Blessed Abraham, and made his name great, and GOD made Abraham a Blessing.  And GOD said to Abraham, I will Bless them that Bless you, and Curse those who Curse you.  And in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

GENESIS 12.3, GENESIS 15.13-21, DEURTERONOMY 7.6-8,  ISAIAH 43.10-11

The families of the earth are blessed in Abraham because The Seed of Abraham, The Jewish People, wrote The Bible from all that GOD Spoke to them, and of all that GOD showed them during Bible times from the days of Genesis through Revelation.

That is The Gospel of The Kingdom that should be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations, and then shall the come.  MATTHEW 24.14

The Gospel of The Kingdom is Every Word GOD Speaks in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses.

And The Writings of GOD’S Spoken Words in The Bible from Genesis through Revelation that include Torah, The Law of Moses, teach all mankind about GOD, and how to lead a GODLY Life for Blessings, Prosperity, Good Success, and Eternal Life in Heaven.  That is the result of Obedience to The Spoken Word of GOD.

And from The Jewish People came The Jewish Messiah Yeshua, The Jesus Christ of The Bible, Who is GOD ALMIGHTY, THE FATHER, Whom GOD has given to all the families of the earth for a Blessing, and for Atonement, and our Teacher leaving us an example  not to sin by living according to Torah, The Law of Moses.

JOSHUA 1.7-10, MATTHEW 24.14, MATTHEW 26.27-28, 1 PETER 2.21-22, 1 JOHN 3.4

And Abraham begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot the twelve Tribes of Israel of whom Joseph was next to the youngest of the twelve brothers.

And because Joseph’s brothers were overcome with jealousy because they felt that their father Jacob loved Joseph more than them, they sought to kill Joseph.  But because GOD had a miraculous plan for Joseph and The Jewish People, Joseph ended up in Egypt and became a servant to an Egyptian Army Officer.

But in time, Joseph was tossed into prison because the Egyptian Officer’s wife falsely accused Joseph of attempting to rape her.  But Joseph ran from her oversexed advances, and Joseph ended up in Jail.  That too was part of GOD’S Plan for Joseph and The Jewish People.

And because of a great famine in Egypt that Joseph predicted from interpreting a prisoner’s dream, and telling Pharaoh the solution for the famine, Pharaoh made Joseph Governor of Egypt under Pharaoh.

And The seven year famine as Joseph predicted was severe throughout Egypt, and throughout the world, and in Canaan where The whole House Of Israel lived, sixty nine in total.  And with Pharaoh’s permission, Joseph moved his Jewish People down to Egypt because in Egypt there was plenty of food.

After Joseph and the Pharaoh died, The Bible says, The Children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceeding mighty, and the land was filled with them.

And there rose up a new king over Egypt who did not know Joseph.  And this new king of Egypt began the four hundred years of Jewish slavery in Egypt where GOD made of Abraham a great nation of seventy Jewish People to some three million Jewish People.  And after four hundred years of Egyptian slavery, it was time for GOD to take action on the Egyptians to free His People.

And GOD raised up The Jewish Man Moses, a Levite, who is said to be one of the greatest of all people in world history.

Egypt was in a killing spree killing all the male Jewish babies in the days Moses was born.  So the mother of Moses (his name was not Moses yet) put her baby in a basket and floated it on the Nile River to wherever GOD would direct it.  And Miriam, the little sister of Moses, was told by her mother to watch and see what would happen to the baby.

And when the daughter of Pharaoh saw the basket floating in the Nile River, she sent her maid to take the basket from the river.  And when she opened the basket, she saw the baby, and the baby was weeping.  And Pharaoh’s daughter had compassion on the little baby, and asked, Is this one of The Hebrew’s Children?

And Miriam, the little sister of Moses, said, Shall I go and call for you a woman nurse of the Hebrew women to nurse the child for you?  And Pharaoh’s daughter, said, Go.  And Miriam went and told the mother of Moses.  And Pharaoh’s daughter said to his mother, Take this child and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.  And Moses’s mother took the child and nursed it.

And Moses grew, and his mother brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son, and she called his name Moses, because she drew him out of the water.

And Moses grew up in Egyptian Royalty.  But when Moses saw an Egyptian beating up on a Hebrew, he looked this way, and that way, and when he saw that no one was watching, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.

But when Pharaoh heard that Moses killed the Egyptian, the king set out to kill Moses.  But Moses fled from Pharaoh, and from Egypt, and settled in Midian, and sat down by a well.

I believe that Moses knew that Midian was one of the offspring of Abraham.  After Sarah died, Abraham married Keturah, and one of their children was named Midian.  GENESIS 25.1-2

It is believed that ancient Midian was in northwestern current day Saudi Arabia.

And Moses married Zipporah, the daughter of The Priest of Midian.  GOD has a plan for every life.

And Moses became a shepherd for his father-in-law Jethro, The Priest of Midian.  And the king of Egypt had died, and The Children of Israel were in hard slavery.  And The Bible says that GOD heard the crying of His People, and remembered His Covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, that is huge, to free His People  from bondage, to make of Abraham a great nation, to Bless Abraham and make his name great.  And that Abraham will be a Blessing, and GOD will Bless those who Bless Abraham, and Curse those who Curse Abraham, and in Abraham shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

And GOD will give the seed of Abraham, The Jewish People, the land of Canaan from the river of Egypt  to the Euphrates River for an Everlasting Possession.

That GOD’S Covenant is an Everlasting Covenant, And every male child of Israel must be circumcised at the age of eight days old as a sign of GOD’S Covenant between GOD and Abraham.

And GOD will multiply the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as the stars of Heaven because Abraham Obeyed The Voice of GOD, and Kept His Charge, GOD’S Commandments, His Statutes, and His Laws.

And GOD named Jacob Israel, meaning, For as a Prince you have power with GOD and with men, and have prevailed.  And Jacob wrestled with GOD, and saw GOD, and his life was preserved.

And GOD said to Jacob, whom GOD named Israel, I am GOD, The GOD of your father.  Do not fear to go down into Egypt, for I will there make of you a great nation.  I will go down with you into Egypt, and I will also surely bring you up, and Joseph shall put his hand upon your eyes.

GENESIS 12.1-3, GENESIS 15.13-21, GENESIS 17.8-14, GENESIS 26.1-5, GENESIS 32.22-30, GENESIS 46.1-4

And Moses led the flock to the backside of The Mountain of GOD called Horeb, that is also Mount Sinai.  And the Angel of The LORD, Who here is GOD ALMIGHTY, THE MESSIAH YESHUA, appeared to Moses in a flame of fire out of a bush.  And Moses looked, and the bush burned, but it was not consumed.  And Moses said, I will turn aside and see this great sight why the bush is not consumed.

And  The Bible says, When The LORD saw that Moses turned aside to see, GOD called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses.  And Moses said, Here am I.  And GOD said, Do not come closer.  Put off your shoes from off your feet for the place where you stand is Holy Ground.

And GOD said, I am The GOD of your father, The GOD of Abraham, The GOD of Isaac,  and The GOD of Jacob.   And Moses hid his face for he was afraid to look upon GOD.  And The LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of My People who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.  And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good land flowing with milk and honey to the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

Now therefore, behold the cry of the Children of Israel has come to Me.  And I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.

And I will send you to Pharaoh that you shall bring forth My People, The Children of Israel out of Egypt.

And Moses said to GOD, Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and that I should bring forth The Children of Israel out of Egypt?  And GOD said, Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you.  When you have brought forth The People out of Egypt, you shall serve GOD on this mountain.

And Moses said to GOD, Behold, when I come to The Children of Israel, and shall say to them, The GOD of your fathers has sent me to you, and they shall say to me, What is His Name?  What shall I say to them?  And GOD said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM.  And He said, Thus shall you say to The Children of Israel,  I AM has sent me to you.

And GOD said to Moses, Thus shall you say to The Children of Israel, The LORD GOD of your fathers, The GOD of Abraham, The GOD of Isaac, and The GOD of Jacob has sent me to you.  This is My Name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered from generation to generation.

And Moses said, They will not believe me, nor do what I say, and they will say, The LORD has not sent you.  And I am not eloquent.  I am slow of speech, and slow of tongue.

(GOD is not looking for eloquent speakers.  GOD is looking for people who teach The Truth, to Obey Every Word GOD Speaks in The Bible, and there is only One GOD and no others.)

And The LORD said to Moses, Who has made man’s mouth?  Or Who makes the dumb, or the deaf, or the seeing, or the blind?  Have not I The LORD?  Now therefore go and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say.  And Moses said, O my LORD, send someone else.  And The Anger of The LORD was kindled against Moses.

The Passover story has been told in Jewish homes for some 3,400 years.  We all know what happened.  Moses did exactly what GOD told him to do.  He went to Pharaoh often, saying, Thus saith The LORD GOD of The Hebrews, Let My People Go.  And Pharaoh, as everyone knows, disobeyed GOD, and said, No, I will not let The People Go.

But after numerous plagues that GOD sent upon the Egyptians because of Pharaoh’s disobedience to GOD, GOD killed  the firstborn Egyptians including Pharaoh’s son, and the firstborn animals, on the first night of the of first Passover.  And Pharaoh thrust The Jews out of Egypt.  And  be gone, Pharaoh said to Moses, and bless me also.  Really?  For what?

EXODUS 12.31-32

But GOD hardened Pharaoh’s heart causing him to chase after The Children of Israel with his army to either bring them back, or kill them.  But GOD had different plans.  GOD killed Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea when GOD opened the Sea for The Children of Israel to cross on dry ground, and dropped the ocean on Pharaoh and his army killing the entire Egyptian army, and Pharaoh with them.

Therefore GOD Commands us to eat matzah, unleavened bread, for the seven day Passover Holiday, The Festival of GOD, and to remember GOD’S Great Deliverance of His Jewish People from generation to generation forever.

I AM THAT I AM, that is GOD’S Name forever Who is the Same Yesterday, Today, and Forever.  GOD never changes.  He is The Great GOD forever.

But The Passover story doesn’t end there.

The first Passover in Egypt is Prophetic for the reason The Jewish Messiah Yeshua came to Israel 2.000 years ago.

The reason Messiah Yeshua came to Israel the first time 2,000 years ago was because GOD had said to Moses in Egypt, Speak to all The Congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month (The Passover Month) every man shall take a lamb according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for a house.

In Messiah Yeshua’s days in Israel, (Messiah is called The Lamb of GOD, John 1.29) on the Tenth Day of The Passover month when The Messiah was killed, Messiah Yeshua came into Jerusalem riding upon a donkey fulfilling the Prophecy of ZECHARIAH 9.9 and fulfilled in JOHN 12.1,12-15.

And in Egypt, GOD said to Moses in The Passover Chapter Exodus 12.5-6, Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year.  You shall take it from the sheep or from the goats and you shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month.  And the whole Congregation of The Children of Israel shall kill it in the evening.

Messiah Yeshua was killed on the fourteenth day of the Passover month.  Israel took Him and gave him to the Romans for death.

And GOD said to Moses in Egypt, And you shall take the blood and strike it on the two side posts, and the upper door posts. It is The LORD’S Passover.  And I will pass through the land of Egypt this night and will kill all the first born in the land of Egypt both man and beast, and against all the gods of Egypt.  I am the LORD.

And the blood shall be for you a miracle upon the houses where you are.  And when I see the blood, GOD said, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you when I destroy the land of Egypt.  EXODUS 12.1-13

The reason Messiah Yeshua, Who is GOD ALMIGHTY, came to Israel 2,000 years ago was to to be our Atonement for many by making His Soul an offering for our sin as a Human Being, by giving His Life and shedding His blood for you and me.

That is why Messiah is also called our Passover who is sacrificed for us.  1 CORINTHIANS 5.7

At Messiah’s Passover Seder that Christianity calls The Last Supper, as Messiah and His Disciples were eating, Messiah took matzah and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to His Disciples, and said, Take, Eat, This is My Body.  And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them saying, Drink all of it.  For this is My Blood of The New Covenant which is shed for many for the forgiveness of sins.

MESSIAH’S BLOOD IS A MIRACLE FOR YOUR ATONEMENT.

The New Covenant of Messiah Yeshua replaces the animal sacrifice for atonement only while there is no Temple in Jerusalem.  Never to abolish Torah, The Law of Moses, and never to replace Tanakh, The Old Testament.   JEREMIAH 31.31-34

AND FAITH IN THE MESSIAH YESHUA MUST BE FOLLOWED BY LIVING YOUR LIFE BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD, THAT INCLUDERS TORAH, THE LAW OF MOSES.  IT IS WRITTEN. 

DEUTERONOMY 8.3, MATTHEW 4.4, LUKE 4.4

And when GOD saw the blood of the lamb on the Jewish homes in Egypt, GOD Passed Over them, and the plague was not upon them to destroy them.

Today, when GOD sees that you believe in Messiah Yeshua, and have Atonement by His Shed Blood, and you live a GODLY Life, living by Every Word that proceeds out of The Mouth of GOD from Genesis through Revelation that includes Torah, The Law of Moses, GOD will pass over you, and not destroy you.

BECAUSE YOU HAVE BECOME A CHILD OF GOD.  CHOSEN AND LOVED BY GOD, TO BE HOLY AND SPECIAL TO GOD, TO BE BLESSED BY GOD, AND TO INHERIT ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN WITH THE LORD YOUR GOD, THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, THE GOD OF ISAAC, AND THE GOD OF JACOB, THE MESSIAH YESHUA.
