We are walking in today:  Is Torah For Everyone? Or The Jewish People Only?

​Witness heir throughout the Bible:  H3423 yarash to inherit, dispossess, to seize, to take possession of​

​Fiveamprayer we have to understand that those in the nations that come to believe in Yeshua can have the Torah as well as the Jewish people.  Unfortunately over the years from the early church father's have placed much distance between the foundations and principles that Yeshua taught and lived by.  Some of this separation comes from the misunderstanding of ​

​the Torah and the ideologies of the early church fathers.​

​   How can we set down the Torah when so much of the Brit Chadasha is a repeat of it and refers back to it constantly?  There is no reason why you would leave off the first half of the Book and yet leave it in it's entirety in the natural sense but not the spirit.  Why is the Torah or the Tanakh only for historical reference to the Brit Chadasha?  How can there be a new without the old?  Where would the new stand?  Where is the foundation that is being build upon?  How tall can a plant grow without a deep established root system?  Those new believers from the nations were to follow the Torah essentials, ​

​ Not to eat food offered to idols, Stay away from sexual immorality, Not to eat meat that had been strangled, Not to eat meat with the blood still in it.  Then from there continue to attend a synagogue for further Torah study.​

​
Acts 15:21, 24-29 (NIV) 21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.” 24 We have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said. 25 So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul— 26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing. 28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: 29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things.
Deuteronomy 31:12 (NIV) Assemble the people—men, women and children, and the foreigners residing in your towns—so they can listen and learn to fear the Lord your God and follow carefully all the words of this law.​

 

For example this scripture, found in the Torah is speaking to those of the children of Israel and the foreigners residing in your towns.  The Torah is not exclusive to the Jewish people, it was to be followed by all of God's people.  We have the Volume of the Book, we have how Yeshua walked while here on the Earth, and it was according to the Torah.  Why would we ever think it was done away with?  Yeshua is the payment for the penalty--not the end of the law!!!    To hear this again click here for a great teaching from the mouth of I AM!
