Fiveamprayer, lets take a look at Romans chapter 3 and find if Yahweh will remain faithful, even when we are unfaithful? He upholds the covenant even when we don't but does that mean that we no longer have to put forth effort to live our lives according to the covenant? All of His word stands--it stands forever! We may be given a time for our mistakes but we are not to continue in our mistakes and disobedience to Yahweh. That is why He has us reading 10 principles every week that we would come to learn, follow and understand the 613 principles that is what the world was built upon, how we are to come before Him and how we are charged to treat each other. In our error they were thrown out and disregarded, yet no where in scriptures whether the first or second half is it said that any part of His word has failed or been reversed. Yeshua came to bring the Torah to a greater understanding that is the meaning of fulfill in Hebrew, not to cause it to cease. That is why He says I did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill it. The Hebraic understanding of abolish is the incorrect interpretation of the Torah or Moses' teachings. The direction that He give to those who are the temple teachers at the time--was to do what they teach but not what they do for they do not live their lives according to what they teach!
The importance of His words, the oracles, the Davar Elohim, Word of God is that they can only be placed or reside in the place that is suited for His Spirit to rest. One of the first places that we can find this resting is on Mount Sinai when the people recieved the Torah. This was at the conclusion of the 50 days of counting from the feast of first fruits. The instructions that the children of Israel are directed in making the tent of meeting, the mobile moving tabernacle. The place where His presence rested over the ark of the covenant that held the tablets of the 10 commandments. This same presence of Yahweh rested also in the temple of Solomon that was built with what King David collected for him, before his death. The new temple was the new resting place for the ark of the covenant and where the people assembled to meet Yahweh according to the feast days and the appointed times. This temple stood for many years until it was destroyed and the second temple was built. The word of God, the davar Elohim, the first oracles of God resided in the ark. He will only have His word in the place that He designates. Fiveamprayer, He has called us out to cross over into our Hebraic roots. In going back to the original, starting from the beginning we will find why He is drawing us back to Him. Will we seek to walk in His statues and judgements? Being in a actual relationship where we have our part to play. We can no longer sit back and be inactive, we have what we are to fulfill. Because of you answering His call He comes to write the Torah in our hearts and minds that we will be His tabernacle, His temple the place where His oracles reside. We are His place where His Spirit rests, the carriers of His word. We must try to walk in all of His instructions to the best of our ability. With repetition we will get better and it will soon become a habit and firm part of our lifestyle that we don't consciously think about it. Like everything that we learn in our youth or years ago with the repeating of the action--becomes a habit. We are seeking to make or maintain good habits take less effort and will allow for our life to run smoothly which was His design! He does not want His people to toil over every decision when He has given us all of the directions for marriages, family, time with Yahweh, finances, health--every area of our lives! He did not leave anything out yet, we did when we would not follow His benefits that were given to us, to preserve, protect and prosper us. Go back to the beginning, that is where we got off track. Consider a builder who did not set the proper foundation due to being in a hurry to put on the roof. Yes the roof is important and needed for the completing of the structure of the house. Due to the haste of the builder who did not allow the foundation to cure to the proper strength with time, caused the house to have one of the walls to fall in and one of the others to have a hole at the bottom where it meets the foundation. Now will this be some thing that can be repaired? Upon inspection they find cracks throughout the foundation and deemed a condemned structure. Now the house will have to be knocked down and begun again. Wouldn't it be better to start off properly than to continue with a condemned structure that is in need of constant and desperate repairs? What kind of life can you live if you are in constant fear of the roof falling in at any minute? When the foundation could be layed and built upon properly? The oracle of God that is mentioned in the second half of the Bible is the same word of God, that Moses received on the top of the mountain. Fiveamprayer we have to go back and get this right! Walking in the totality of His word from Genesis to Revelation! The whole word is what He gave us and and we must apply this to our lives, study to know Him truly and that we will know how we are to operate and live in the community. Take time to look at these scriptures to find were we got off track and return to the way, the truth and the life directed in His word! To hear this again click here.
