SABBATH RESTING and Keeping is my DELIGHT
Psalm_16:3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
37:4 Delight thyself also in YaHVaH; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Rom_7:22 For I delight in the law of YaH H 3050 after the inward man:
Psalm_1:2 But his delight is in the law of YaHVaH; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Do not be like the preacher who said , "You are Above YaHVaH's Law".
37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my YaH: yea, thy law is within my heart.
119:16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.
119:47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
Colossians 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
Heb 4:4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And Elohim did rest the seventh day from all his works.
Heb 4:5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.
Heb 4:6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
Heb 4:7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
Heb 4:8 For if YaHOSHA had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
Heb 4:9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of Elohim.
Jer 6:16 Thus saith YaHVaH, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
While the Westernized neo-Evangelical Assemblies teacher might say, "Have it your way" we should let YaHVaH's Word have more weight than your basic armchair teacher out there.
So if you were learning Flight Training and to your shock, there were no instructions how to fly a plane, and furthermore no instructor; would not you feel like you were going to solo and then crash the plane?
Are you looking for a higher PLANE in the WORD, or, are you look for a way out?
Exodus 24:3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the YaHVaH, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the YaHVaH hath said will we do.
And Moses wrote all the words of the YaHVaH, and rose up early in the morning, and built an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
Regarding the FEASTS:
Exodus 23:12 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other elohim neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.
HOLIDAYS and NATIONS:
See"Come out of Her MY people" Page 28
A Nation is known by its' holidays.
It would be out of order and out of character for a Feast goer to bring Christmas presents to Sukkot/Feast of Tabernacles. There would be no shopping for presents, holiday lights, drunkedness nor singing songs claiming that Messiah was born "On a Midnight Clear" a fake weather report, adding to the Word of YaHVaH, nor does it tell us what time of day or night He was born. The song "Silent Night" again adds to Scripture by telling it was "AT NIGHT" and that it was quiet or not.
Another problem with the reconstituted Pagan holiday xmas is the annual putting the King of Kings back in a crib as defense-less Messiah who needs a human to protect Him.
Do we want to "jump in with both feet" and dedicate to serve YaHVaH, or do you (or they) supposed to go back to Babylon worship?
Hear now:
Revelation 1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Matthew 3:10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Verse 11 is about baptism. Then referring to the Sovereign authority of Messiah, we read
Matt 3:12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
John 1:27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
Psa_119:77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.
Psa_119:174 I have longed for thy salvation, O YaHVaH; and thy law is my delight.
Isa_58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my pure day; and call the sabbath a delight, the pure of YaHVaH, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
Isa_58:14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in YaHVaH; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of YaHVaH hath spoken it.
Isa 55:1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Ezekiyl 37:24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
"Old man or woman's rubble/trouble."
Matthew 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
Psalm 66:18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, YaHVaH will not hear me:
Mat 6:22 "The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!"
I will not partake any longer of RCC or Protestant communion as a substitute for Messiah's Passover. Aviv 14 same date every year; on different DAYS of the week. Chazak! Be Strong, and keep the next Passover on Aviv 14, first month 14th day. Never Easter, against the Last supper of Exodus 10 to 12, the True Passover and 1 Corinthians 5:7. "Let us therefore KEEP the Feast (of Passover), not with the old leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the UN-Leavened bread of sincerity and truth.
SABBATH LOGS- Typed by TsephanYaH on Last Great Day
Numbers/Bemidbar 15:27-41 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered TIMBER/sticks upon the Sabbath day. 33And they that found him gathering LOGS/Timber/sticks H6086 brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto the entire congregation. 34And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. 35And YaHVaH said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: All the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. 36And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as YaHVaH commanded Moses.
I’ve always heard this passage to seem as, “How trivial and absurd! Here the “Jewish” law told them to kill a man by stoning even if he were just gathering some sticks for kindling a fire for the poor little old lady.
On the contrary, there was no poor little old lady dying of cold, nor were there any sticks. Even so, “kindling a fire on the Sabbath is forbidden (not just by Jewish law) but by the Creator of the Universe, YaHVaH in the Torah. However, the (not necessarily OLD) man was LOGGING on the Sabbath, and by the law of sin and death, was put to death. That portion of the then civil law was a part of “the added law” and temple sacrifices for sin, a school master to bring us to Messiah. JeremiYah 7:22, Galatians 5 etcetera.
Here at the Feast of the Last Great Day, we see the contemporary Greco Christianity and then the true Hebrew faith once delivered to the saints. There is the bumper sticker “Christians aren’t perfect, but just forgiven”. But the Messiah said in Matthew 5 “Become PERFECT even as your heavenly Father is perfect”. Some argue “We do not have to keep the law and strive toward spiritual perfection because YaH is not in the least concerned about our ‘performance’. However wrong again, as Deuteronomy 6 and the NT say we are to LOVE YAHVAH with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Psalm 19 and 119 uphold the law, the Ten Commandments, the statutes and the judgments (includes Feast days).
Feasts ARE a shadow of things to COME, not ‘which WERE’. “Let no MAN judge you but the body of Messiah in regard to eating and drinking (verbs not nouns) in respect to (keeping) the Sabbath, New Moons and Feast Days which are a shadow of things to come. Colossians 2:14-16.
One speaker said, “There is one place in eternity where the Sabbath will not be kept: Hell (any hell).”
The so called old and ‘new’ Testament agrees. Ephesians 2:10 “We are His workmanship, created in YaHOSHA UN-TO Good Works (commandments, statues and judgments and YaHOSHA).
Then there are those you may have noticed in every Creed who are diligent, eager and willing to obey the imperatives in the Scripture. So that it will not come as a surprise, there are those who are pretenders, variations including stoics, hypocrites, agnostics, deceivers and flatterers who seem like maybe they are not aware of the present Sovereign YaH, in our observation.
(In some Messianic circles you see all kinds. Many are well mannered. Some of us have a long way to go. Then there is the Intelligencia, high society only (who hate it when someone is better or worse off than they are). There are believers looking for every profound particle of a word, letter or code. But they might really be into ‘the abstract’ like an nuage painting whose meaning is unknown, not even to the artist.
One can pray and hope that those ‘men of learning’ will get off the chair of stagnation and become ‘practical’ Hebrews. The attitudes of others do not really matter unless these are held-up to be a superior oblivious theory. What matters is that we all can be true to the Word of YaHVaH, keep His Torah and try to love the unlovable.
When YaHVaH seems far away, they ask “Who moved”? That is the wrong question. Wait on YaHVaH.
The Latin name Yaesu (Iesus with a “J”) We will prove that it came from Iesus. The correct Name of Messiah is similar to the Hebrew Names of YaHSha (without the shua) or in English “Joshua”; also Hosea or Oshea. See our various studies on Messiah’s Name or use your Concordance found on many cell phones and in bookstores. You might have to explain that a Concordance is like a Glossary and dictionary of Words in Scripture.
The Feast of Tabernacles was just wonderful. I met a nice old Vietnamese couple who spoke about freedom of religion. The bright reds and golden yellows of deciduous vegetation mixed (verb) with the dull colors of early winter.
