REDISCOVERING THE ORIGINAL MANDATE




The Bible says that when a man teaches the kingdom of Yah he’s like a man who goes into a house and brings out old things and new things, because if you lost something for a long time and then you finally found it you think it's new again. We lost this so what I decided to do today and I prayed about this last night for the longest I said Yah what do you want me to do? He says I want you to reassure everyone this afternoon about the kingdom. So I want you to write down a lot of Scripture right now and then go into your own studies. The priority of Yahusha Hamachiach is the kingdom. Yahusha never preached being born again. Yahusha mentioned born-again once, and he never spoke it to a crowd of people. Take a deep breath. He only spoke that word to one man at 2 a.m. in the morning and the man was a religious leader.The man's question was important. How do I enter the kingdom? We keep preaching what Yahusha never preached. His priority was Matthew 6 verse 33. He says seek ye first the kingdom of Yah and His righteousness and everything you need will be added to you. Seek ye first the kingdom of Yah. Now for any Pastor’s that may listen to this recording, I'm glad you are listening, because pastors, this is going to be the class that you didn't have in college. This is going to be the class that you didn't have in Bible School. This will be the class you didn't have in seminary. I got a degree in theology and there was not one class on the kingdom and Yahusha said we must seek that first. So I have a degree in theology and don't know the message. I wanted to mention this comment here about prototype timing and listen carefully. According to chronology in the Bible, Adam is about 7,000 years old according to the chronology in the Bible. Now the earth may be much older than that, we don't know. it could be a billion years, million or whatever they want to say but we don't know that, but based on the biblical chronology mankind is about seven thousand years old. So when Adam disobeyed Yah in the third chapter of Genesis, Yah made a promise in the same chapter. He says that the woman shall have a seed that shall come into the world and shall crush the head of the authority of HaSatan and then he shall restore man back. Well here's a question I had about Yah or with Yah for years. Yah why did you take so long to send the seed? Between Adam and Yahusha is four thousand years. That's a long wait and I kept asking Yah why didn't you send Yahusha in chapter 4 and solve the problem? That’s a logical question isn't it? Or why didn't you send Yahusha during the time of Abraham or at the time of Moses or the time of the Chaldeans or the Assyrians? And Yah said to me an amazing thing. He said I sent my son, this is his answer, in the fullness of time. Now the word fullness here has nothing to do with a watch, you know on your hand, a time of day or something. The word fullness of time means everything was in its right place. The setting was perfect. Yah always moves when he has everything in the right place. So why did Yah wait 4000 years before he sent the Machiach? Because it took 4000 years for there to be a prototype in the earth that was the correct prototype of the kingdom of Yah. Now listen carefully. To understand Yah's timing in sending the king, the Machiach, anointed king, you have to understand his concept of a kingdom, and there was no Kingdom on earth that had all the components in it until the Romans arrived. The Romans actually set up a prototype of a kingdom that was the closest to Yah's kingdom and that's why he came at that time. Now let me make a statement. Effective communication depends on correct concepts. So when you're going to communicate with someone you got to make sure that their concepts are the same as yours, otherwise there will be a misconception. So every time you use words, the meanings have to be the same in both people's minds. Are you with me? So when Yah is about to speak into the world he has to make sure that the words that are going to be used by him are common in the environment. So the Roman Empire had all the words, all the concepts that a kingdom that Yah desired on earth had. Let me give an example. Every Kingdom before the Romans, all of them, you could study them, whenever a kingdom took over territory or invaded foreign territory, here's what they did: they would kill all the strong soldiers, they would take the women, and then take all the the young men and they would uproot them out of the country that they invaded and take them back to their country and make them slaves. They would displace people. The Romans were the first Kingdom in history that reversed that. The Romans were the first Kingdom and that's why they were so successful, they were the most powerful Kingdom in history, they were the longest reigning Kingdom in history. Even today no one has ever passed the Romans in rulership and thirdly the Romans had the largest kingdom in history and still do. They reigned from Africa to Scotland. They controlled the world for 200 years. They were the most powerful, most successful Kingdom in history, why? Because they used Yah's system. What is Yah's system? The Romans were the first ones to invent Yah’s idea of colonization. What did the Romans do? Whenever they invaded a foreign territory they didn't uproot the people. They would leave the people in the land but the King, Caesar, which means Lord, would send from his courts a person that he hand-picked to that territory where he just invaded and that person would be called a Tetra or a governor. Pilate was one of them. There are many of them and they would live in the new territory with the people that they conquered and the job of that governor was to convert that territory into Rome. In other words, the Romans didn't bring the people to Rome to make them Romans, they took Rome to the people to make the people Rome. Please listen to me please. So the concept, when Yah saw that, he said let’s go now because everything you're going to say will make sense to them. And that's why the Romans are so successful. They used Yah's system and so came the saying when in Rome you do as the Romans do. In other words, wherever the Romans invaded became little Rome. They made you speak Latin, they made you eat Roman food, they made you wear Roman clothing, they made you pay Roman taxes, they made you practice Roman culture. In other words, everything became Rome, So wherever you are it's Rome and Yahusha came in the midst of that. He was born in a colony. Palestine was a colony. Judea, that whole area was a colony and the governor was sent there to control it and make it Rome And his name was Pilate. Are you following me? Words like colonia is a Greek word that the Romans implemented. Words like Caesar or lord kurios were words that the Greek used for their political discussion but the Romans implemented it. Caesar means Lord. Lord means owner. I own the Empire. That's why Yahusha Hamachiach was a problem to the Roman Empire because he declared that he was Lord. it was a political issue not a religious one. Yahusha Hamachiach never claimed that he was a priest. I know you are shocked but read the four Gospels. But he claimed he was what? A king. He said you call me Lord but don't do what I say, why? if I'm your owner you don't do what Caesar tells you to do, you do what I say and then he says if Caesar’s your Lord then you pay Caesar money if I'm your Lord you pay me money. It was a political conflict. it was two kingdoms clashing. Is anybody still with me? So Yahusha' message had to be a kingdom message. Okay so let me help you out so that you will settle this forever. Let's read from your Bible, Matthew 3:1. In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the desert of Judea, what did he preach? Repent! Why? Because the kingdom of heaven is near. John's message was the kingdom message. He didn't preach baptism. He wasn't a Baptist. He baptized but he was not baptist, he preached the kingdom and he baptized Yahusha. I wish I had time to talk about that. I don't want to talk about it right now but the word baptism actually implies submission to a master teacher and his philosophy. That's what baptism was about. It's really not about the ritual of the water. It was what you submitted to. Everybody had baptisms. The Pharisees baptized, the Sadducees had baptisms, Herodians had baptisms. Baptism means you submitted to a master teacher, you went under his authority and became one with his philosophy. Plato had disciples, they call them students. Aristotle baptized, he had students that followed him. Socrates was a master teacher with students; disciples. So everyone had them and Yahusha came and he saw John and John was the master teacher of his era and John was preaching the message of the kingdom and when Hamachiach saw him, Yahusha said I'm going under that teacher. He said I have to get under this philosophy because this is my message and so the teacher became just like the student and vice versa. Let's read Matthew 4:17 And from that time on Yahusha began to preach, what did he preach? Repent! Why? For the kingdom of heaven has arrived. Matthew 4:23 And Yahusha went throughout Galilee teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness among the people. That's what he preached. Matthew 5:3, blessed are those who are spiritually poor for to them they can only be satisfied by the kingdom of heaven. He was talking to six billion people. He says every human that is spiritually bankrupt, the only thing that can satisfy your emptiness is not a religion but the kingdom of heaven. This is why people in your country are atheists, they are agnostics, they are animists. They don't want religion. They're looking for something else. Religion does not satisfy your spiritual hunger. Look at that verse. He said if you are spiritually poor the only thing that can satisfy you is the kingdom of heaven. Why? Because that is what you lost. You didn't lose a religion, you lost the kingdom. Look at this, Matthew 6:33 but seek ye first the kingdom of Yah and His righteousness and all of these things shall be added unto you. Luke 4:43 but he said to them I must preach what? The good news of the kingdom to other towns also because that is why I was sent. Some of these verses you have never seen before. Matthew 13:11 but he replied the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you but not to them. Matthew 13:24 Yahusha told them another parable, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. Look at this, Matthew 12:28 but if I drive out demons by the Spirit of Yah then what? Then the kingdom of Yah has arrived on earth. Let me tell you what miracles are. Miracles are not religious activities. Miracles are evidence of another government. Look at that verse. He said if I drive out demons by the Spirit of Yah, he didn't say a religion has arrived. A kingdom has arrived. How about this one, verse 29 again he says can anyone enter a strong man's house and carry off his possessions unless he first what? Ties up the strong man, then he can rob his house. He says I was able to cast this demon out of this man because the kingdom that was controlling him clashed with a greater Kingdom. Come on let us read the Bible, Luke 9:11 but when the multitudes knew it they followed him and he received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of Yah and healed those who had need of healing. By the way, he didn't speak to them about Calvary. Please don't attack me yet. Read the four Gospels for yourself. Yahusha never preached Calvary to the people. He only spoke of his death privately to his disciples. Publicly he preached the kingdom. I'm going to get in trouble right here but study for yourself. Calvary is not the gospel he preached to the people. Matter of fact, let's move on because some of you haven’t got it yet. Luke 12:33 Do not be afraid little flock for your father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Yah's pleasure is to give you the kingdom, not to give you a religion. Oh you haven’t had enough. Okay let's move on again Luke chapter 16:16 the law and the prophets, watch this, were preached up until John. Read on, but since John we should be preaching, he says, the kingdom and I graduated from seminary and there was not a class on it. The law represents Moses, the prophets represent all the minor and major prophets of the old testament. He says, the message is not what they said was coming. The message is what has already arrived. Take a deep breath. You never saw that verse before. Since John the message should be the kingdom. By the way it gets worse. Let's read this one, Matthew 23:14 Woe to you theologians, you seminary graduates! Woe to you religious professors, you lawgivers, you Pharisees, you hypocrites, you shut the kingdom of heaven up in men's faces, you won't teach it and you yourselves would not enter nor will you let the people who want to find it, find it. In other words, we are bent on teaching our own messages. Most of the theology that the world of Christendom is filled with things Yah knows nothing about. In other words, you want Yah to influence you in this teaching. I know how you feel right now but blame him not me! Religious people don't want you to know this message, so they shut it up. I tell you, four years in a university in Theological Seminary and no class taught this. How can I go through four years of study in theology about Yah and the Bible and have no session on the kingdom and it's the only message he said to preach? Because they shut it up. I spent one semester studying St. Augustine who was a Catholic priest. I had to read books by German theologians, all the deep guys and none of them talked about the kingdom. This community should be known as the kingdom community, the place where you go to get that message! Let me tell you ladies and gentlemen, my assignment is a very difficult assignment because the things I do, like I'm doing right now, is very difficult, because I've got a deal first of all with the church and pastors will come after you. Listen to me, Yahusha never had a single opposition nor a problem with sinners. His greatest opposition was religious people. He says you'll lock it up and you wouldn't go in either. It gets worse Matthew 24:13 and this gospel, this one, this means I know there are many others that you are preaching, but this gospel of the kingdom will be preached into the whole world as a testimony to every hindu, buddhist, Shintoists, Islamic person, every atheist. He said preach that, don't preach Christianity, preach the kingdom to them, why? That's what they're hungry for. That's why they shut down on you. They don't want religion, they have one already and it’s not working. He says, when you preach the kingdom, then the end will come. He placed the end of the world not in the hands of Yah, he left it in your hands. In other words, the end of the world is dependent on a message. So could it be that the church is holding him back because we're preaching our own stuff? I love you, you know and this is hard work man. Take a deep breath. Let’s read, and this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached into the whole world as a testimony to all men and then the end will come. In other words, he says the end is depending on what you preach and he told us what to preach. So stop prophesying and telling people that the end of the world is coming soon. You are holding it back. Are you with me? Are you reading the Bible?Let me prove something to you. This particular statement is a result of a question they asked in verse 1 and 2. They said to Yahusha, when is the end of the world coming and this was his answer, when you guys preach this message to every city, every nation in the world, then I will come. But one time they asked him again. They said, when is the end of the world coming? His answer was strange. He said the end of the world will be like the days of Noah. He says you remember the days of Noah, the people raveling and sinning and everything. He says the Lord spoke to Noah and told Noah to build his ark. Watch him now. He says and when the ark was finished, the door was closed. When the ark was finished, then the rain came, he said and the floods rose. So shall it be at the end of the age. This might be a little confusing for you. Here's what he meant. He was telling the people, telling the disciples, he says look, the end of the world at that time, didn't depend on Yah, it was waiting on Noah. The rain could have come if Noah was finished in a week, if he was finished in a month, if he was finished in two years. The rain was waiting on Noah, so shall the end be. Yah's waiting on you to do that. I am not too concerned about missionaries anymore. I'm not excited about missionaries anymore but the question I have is what is your missionary preaching? Read the statement. You might be financing the retardation of his return. You have a Bible School here, thank Yah, you have a ministry school, thank Yah. Make sure that that school is teaching those people what message to preach when they leave here. When your denominations and your church tradition becomes more important than his instructions, then you have no reason for existence. Take a deep breath. Matthew 16:19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Matthew 16:27 I tell you the truth some of you who are standing here today 2,000 years ago will not taste death before they see with their own eyes the Son of man coming in his kingdom. That verse is never taught by theologians. Why? Because they don't want to accept that it's already here. Okay take a deep breath. Let me explain this verse. Look at the verse. He was talking to people in a village standing with him 2,000 years ago. He says you will not die, you're going to be alive when the kingdom comes. He went to the crucifixion stake, rose again, came back and he said receive the Ruach HaQadesh. In other words, the kingdom is here. The kingdom of Yah is love, joy, peace and righteousness in the Ruach HaQadesh. The government is here now. We keep putting the kingdom in the future. The governor is already here. The kingdom is supposed to be working every day wherever you are. It's here on earth now. I put it to you, write this down. You can never appropriate what you postpone. If you keep putting the kingdom in the future you can never experience it now and he wants you to experience it now. He wants to meet all of your needs now. He wants you to be protected by his army now. And by the way, in a kingdom the citizens don't fight. This is very important. In a kingdom the army fights not the citizens. And so when you study the Bible carefully you'll find that the Army in the kingdom of Yah is the messengers. You are citizens so while you're drinking kool-aid and sipping your iced coffee with your chocolate doughnut the messengers are fighting on your behalf. He said I will give my messengers, army, charge. That means responsibility, concerning you, to protect you in all your ways, therefore stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. The next verse says, and the angel of the Lord went forth and destroyed Pharaoh's army. Let me tell you something. While you are here there are secret agents around your house walking around right now, they are walking around. That's why your car is safe, your kids are safe, your home is safe, your business is safe, why? In a kingdom the government sends its army to protect your property. These military guys are so awesome that the Bible says one of them destroyed Pharaoh's army. ONE! No wonder why Pilate became nervous when he threatened Yahusha. Let me give you an example of how powerful the army is. Yahusha is a king not a religious man. That's why when they arrested him in the garden he was arrested by the religious leaders. They took him to Caiaphas house and put him on trial in the court in the night, which was illegal but it was a religious Court, the Sanhedrin Council. Yahusha never answered them why? Wrong courtroom. You can't try a political leader in a religious court, so he just kept quiet, why? Unnecessary to talk to these guys, wrong courtroom. They have a religion. I have a kingdom, wrong courtroom. Now watch this, the Bible says then Caiaphas command that he be sent to Pilate. He went to Pilate. Now it's the right courtroom. We have Kingdom against Kingdom and he began to talk. Yahusha said Pilate, Pilate said Yahusha, the people said that you claim to be a king. Yahusha said, they rightly said, for this cause was I born to be a king, to testify of the truth, but my kingdom is not from this world it's in it but not from it. Pilate says, Do You Know Who I am? I represent King Caesar, I have the power in my thumb, I could take your life or give it to you. Now never threaten Yahusha. Watch his response. Yahusha said excuse me Pilate, listen to his words now, he says Pilot you could have no power over me except it was given to you by my government from above. That is in your Bible. The next statement he says, because even now, watch him now, I could call 10 legions of messengers……… not believers. I don't need no believer to defend me, I have an army in my country. I can call 10 legions of messengers and they can deliver me out of your hands right now. He says but I came to die so shut your mouth. Do you know that a Legion is 6,000 soldiers? 10 legions is 60,000. Only one destroyed Pharaoh's army. You better give him praise! Your house is safe, your car is safe, your business is safe, your children are safe. He has given his messengers CHARGE concerning you! The only problem is with the messengers, they work for you, you have to give them instructions because you are their boss. And so he said messengers are ministering spirits sent forth to do the bidding, the instructions of those who are of his salvation. That's why your house was broken into, because you left home and didn't leave instructions! Say thank you great governor! It is time to rediscover the original kingdom mandate!!!!!!
