But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws. ’ Matthew 7:23 A New Heaven and a New Earth …7The one who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son 8 But to the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.” Failure to acknowledge sin is deliberate betrayal and disloyalty To God, betrayal is the most devastating loss a person can experience.1John 3:4: The one who practices sin is of the devil . If people call themselves Christian, they are required to follow Christ and live as He did..1 John 2:6 He kept The Sabbath, God's food laws, God's appointed times, and all the commandments. This also is a Deliberate betrayal by living your lives opposite to Christ whom you claim to love. 1 John 3:4: The one who practices sin is of the devil “Sin is the transgression of the law that separates the sinner from God. Sin is what happens when you violate God's law; Transgression is the actual act of violating the law Iniquity is a wicked act and immoral conduct or practice. when you've engaged in sin by transgressing God's law If we deliberately keep practice sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left. 1 John 3:9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God. Key examples of betraying God: Ignoring God's laws and choosing to practice sin: Engaging in actions considered morally wrong according to Scripture. Hypocrisy: Presenting oneself as devout Christian while acting contrary to one's beliefs. Putting worldly things first: Prioritizing material possessions, career success, or personal pleasure above spiritual growth. Not actively practicing faith: Failing to regularly pray, study scripture, or observe the Sabbath. Misinterpreting scripture: Twisting the meaning of religious texts to suit personal desires. Failing to stand up for what is right : Not speaking out against injustice or immoral behavior when appropriate. Lack of compassion and love: Not showing kindness and generosity towards others, which is a core tenet of most faiths. Building "kingdoms" outside of God: Focusing on creating personal power or status rather than serving a higher purpose. …23 But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.” 25 The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. Betrayal is summarized by three behaviors: The Judas Trade: Exchanging the eternal truth of God's Word for temporary gain—whether it be money, status, or cultural acceptance. Spiritual Adultery: Taking the life and blessings God gave you and using them to serve the "idols" of self-will and lawless living. It is breaking the wedding vows of the covenant. The Kiss of Lawlessness: Claiming to love the Messiah while teaching that His commandments (Torah) no longer matter. This "kisses" Him with words while handing His authority over to be ignored. The Distinction: A stumble is a mistake made while trying to stay on the narrow path, followed by immediate repentance (Teshuvah). Betrayal is the intentional decision to walk away from the path because you prefer your own way over His. Bottom Line: Betrayal is knowing the Master’s house rules and choosing to treat them as optional. Warnings against Sin 1 Listen! The LORD’s arm is not too weak to save you,nor is his ear too deaf to hear you call. 2 It’s your sins that have cut you off from God.Because of your sins, he has turned away and will not listen anymore. 3 Your hands are the hands of murderers,and your fingers are filthy with sin.Your lips are full of lies,and your mouth spews corruption. 4 No one cares about being fair and honest. The people’s lawsuits are based on lies.They conceive evil deeds and then give birth to sin. 5 They hatch deadly snakes and weave spiders’ webs.Whoever eats their eggs will die; whoever cracks them will hatch a viper. 6 Their webs can’t be made into clothing,and nothing they do is productive.All their activity is filled with sin,and violence is their trademark. 7 Their feet run to do evil, and they rush to commit murder.They think only about sinning. Misery and destruction always follow them. 8 They don’t know where to find peace or what it means to be just and good.They have mapped out crooked roads, and no one who follows them knows a moment’s peace. 9 So there is no justice among us, and we know nothing about right living.We look for light but find only darkness. We look for bright skies but walk in gloom. 10 We grope like the blind along a wall, feeling our way like people without eyes.Even at brightest noontime, we stumble as though it were dark.Among the living,we are like the dead. 11 We growl like hungry bears; we moan like mournful doves.We look for justice, but it never comes. We look for rescue, but it is far away from us. 12 For our sins are piled up before God and testify against us.Yes, we know what sinners we are. 13 We know we have rebelled and have denied the LORD. We have turned our backs on our God. We know how unfair and oppressive we have been,carefully planning our deceitful lies. 14 Our courts oppose the righteous, and justice is nowhere to be found.Truth stumbles in the streets, and honesty has been outlawed. 15 Yes, truth is gone, and anyone who renounces evil is attacked.The LORD looked and was displeased to find there was no justice. 16 He was amazed to see that no one intervened to help the oppressed So he himself stepped in to save them with his strong arm, and his justice sustained him. 17 He put on righteousness as his body armor and placed the helmet of salvation on his head. He clothed himself with a robe of vengeance and wrapped himself in a cloak of divine passion. 18 He will repay his enemies for their evil deeds. His fury will fall on his foes. He will pay them back even to the ends of the earth. 19 In the west, people will respect the name of the LORD; in the east, they will glorify him. For he will come like a raging flood tide driven by the breath of the LORD.a 20 “The Redeemer will come to Jerusalem to buy back those in Israel who have turned from their sins,” b says the LORD. 21 “And this is my covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit will not leave them, and neither will these words I have given you. They will be on your lips and on the lips of your children and your children’s children forever. I, the LORD, have spoken! When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”verse is from the Bible, specifically Isaiah 59:14-16, which says: "So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice.". 16He saw that there was no man; He was amazed that there was no one to intercede. So His own arm brought salvation, and His own righteousness sustained Him.… Meaning: This passage describes a society where truth and honesty are so absent that they are practically non-existent, to the point where someone who tries to live righteously is vulnerable and becomes a target. It portrays a severe moral decline where justice is not pursued and evil is widely accepted. The lake of fire is a symbolic place of punishment for the wicked after death. The phrase "fire and brimstone" is an idiom that refers to God's wrath. "Brimstone" is an old-fashioned term for sulfur. The lake of fire appears in both ancient Egyptian and Christian religions. In ancient Egypt, it was an obstacle on the journey through the underworld.

SAcrifice will resume WILL HUMANITY SURVIVE? We are living in humanity’s grand experiment in governing itself without God. Can the 193 United Nations member states ever find the way to world peace? History should make the answer plain! The twentieth century brought two world wars responsible for the deaths of tens of millions and violent tyrannies that killed millions of innocent civilians. It brought humanity to the brink of nuclear self-annihilation. Even today, biological, chemical, nuclear, and other threats keep our planet on the brink of disaster and destruction. So, will planet Earth survive at all? Is there any hope for world peace? Many do not know that the Bible predicts specific events leading up to the end of this age. We read, “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened” (Matthew 24:21–22 ). But who will shorten those days to save us? Your Bible reveals that Christ will return to this earth to prevent total cosmocide. Danger is ahead, but Scripture also shares the awesome good news of a coming world government under the King of kings. Until He comes, what should we do? Many try to “live for today” and enjoy all they can, avoiding the sobering reality of what is to come. But Christ wants us to be different. He admonishes us to “take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man” (Luke 21:34–36 ). This article will examine seven trends or signs for which we should be watching. As we watch, we will know that we are approaching that wonderful day when Jesus Christ will return and the seventh trumpet will sound. “Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, ‘The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!’” (Revelation 11:15 ). Will you be ready to meet Him when He comes? You will, if you follow His commands as you prepare. So, look for these seven signs! 1. GROWING DANGER OF NUCLEAR WAR Despite many treaties meant to control the proliferation of nuclear weapons, experts are worried. One agency reports that, since 2016, “there has been significant backsliding on the standards related to arms control and risk reduction” (“Assessing Progress on Nuclear Nonproliferation and Disarmament,” Arms Control Association, July 2019, p. v). In addition to the known nuclear nations—Russia, the United States, France, China, the United Kingdom, Israel, India, Pakistan, and North Korea—the report looked at Iran and Syria, where biological and other forms of deadly weaponry are also being researched, and found “evidence that Iran, North Korea, and Syria all engaged in illicit trafficking of dual-use [weapon and non-weapon] materials and technologies” (p. vi). Will Russia detonate one of its estimated 6,850 nuclear weapons in a coming war? Will the United States detonate one of its 6,550? We should remember that mankind’s pattern is not to let technology sit unused. Last January, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists reminded us of this danger: “The current situation—in which intersecting nuclear, climate, and information warfare threats all go insufficiently recognized and addressed, when they are not simply ignored or denied—is unsustainable. The longer world leaders and citizens carelessly inhabit this new and abnormal reality, the more likely the world is to experience a catastrophe of historic proportions.” The Bulletin called our present situation “a new abnormal” (“A new abnormal: It is still 2 minutes to midnight,” Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 2019). Sadly, your Bible confirms that humanity is not finished with war. Scripture foretells World War III, when a huge army will move west across the Euphrates River. Now the number of the army of the horsemen was two hundred million; I heard the number of them. And thus I saw the horses in the vision: those who sat on them had breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow; and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions; and out of their mouths came fire, smoke, and brimstone. By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed—by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone which came out of their mouths (Revelation 9:16–18 ). As shocking as it may seem, one-third of all human beings will die in a future world war! Watch for the development of nuclear capabilities on the world scene. 2. EARTHQUAKES AND OTHER NATURAL DISASTERS As we saw above, floods and fires continue to ravage our planet and seem to be increasing. Consider the following comments by this magazine’s Editor in Chief, Evangelist Gerald E. Weston, in his eye-opening booklet Acts of God: Why Natural Disasters? : Hawaii is a very popular tourist destination, as are the islands of the South Pacific. These beautiful volcanic islands are the stuff of songs and musicals. But as we know, volcanoes can be very dangerous to anyone living too close to them. Thousands of people perished in Pompeii and the surrounding area when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. Fifty-seven people died when Mount St. Helens erupted May 18, 1980…. There were warning signs of a catastrophe in the making, just as there had been before Mt. Vesuvius erupted. The north side of St. Helens bulged some 300 feet and was growing five to six feet a day. Warnings to evacuate the area were given, but as is often the case, people do not heed such warnings: “A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; the simple pass on and are punished” (Proverbs 27:12 ). As we saw earlier, natural disasters cause both human and financial devastation. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reported in late 2019 that since 1980, the U.S. had suffered over $1.7 trillion in financial losses as a result of 254 major weather events that each cost the nation more than $1 billion. Last year was the fifth consecutive year in which the U.S. suffered ten or more separate billion-dollar disaster events (“Billion-Dollar Weather and Climate Disasters: Overview,” NCDC.NOAA.gov, October 8, 2019). Altogether, natural disasters conservatively cost the United States $91 billion in 2018, according to the NOAA, while several insurance companies such as Munich Re present even higher estimates. And these figures are just for U.S. losses. One single event in 2011—the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that damaged Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant—has been tied to more than 20,000 deaths and $360 billion in economic damage. This compares to “just” $250 billion in damage and additional economic impact in the U.S. from Hurricane Katrina in 2005. We could go on listing these events and lamenting the suffering they cause, yet your Bible reveals that today’s worst disasters pale in comparison to what will happen before Christ returns at the end of this age. The book of Revelation explains: “And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth” (16:18). Scripture reveals that terrible times are ahead, before Christ’s return . “For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:7–8 ). Of course, preparing for the occasional emergency or natural disaster is prudent. But while “doomsday preppers” stockpile vast amounts of food, water, and resources, the only preparation that will ultimately protect you from what is coming on the whole world is to stay close to your Savior and do what He tells you to do! 3. A UNITED EUROPE SEEKS GLOBAL PRIMACY The European Union has experienced the challenge of “Brexit”—the controversy surrounding British voters’ choice to leave the European Union and the consequences of that vote. The EU is also struggling with problems caused by massive flows of refugees and other immigrants, some of whom bring to their new countries the very different values of the countries they left behind. Smaller and weaker EU nations chafe as Germany strives to exert a leadership role proportionate to its economic strength, while all are left unnerved by the uncertain nature of the United States’ commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Many perceive that only a strong and charismatic power can bring unity to the struggling EU. In fact, your Bible prophesies that such a leader is coming, symbolized as a beast with seven heads and ten horns. God reveals the meaning of this symbol: “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast. These are of one mind, and they will give their power and authority to the beast” (Revelation 17:12–13 ). Ten kings or kingdoms will support this charismatic leader, producing a powerful, unified force. Currently, the European Union is not so unified, but watch for international events that will spur a future combination of nations in Europe to fulfill a final revival of the historic Roman Empire, which will dominate the world politically and militarily. Notice the description of its power: “And all the world marveled and followed the beast… and they worshiped the beast, saying, ‘Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?’” (Revelation 13:3–4 ). The world power structure will change dramatically over the coming years. Watch developments in Europe as an ascendant European Union seeks and ultimately achieves global primacy. 4. A POWERFUL LEADER UNITES BILLIONS IN A RELIGIOUS REVIVAL We’ve seen the prophecy that a great superpower will ascend on the world scene, but notice that there’s another world figure also described as a beast. This symbolic beast has two horns like a lamb. Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived (Revelation 13:11–14 ). Jesus Christ is called the Lamb of God. By contrast, this religious imposter will appear Christian while speaking like a dragon. You need to watch for an internationally respected religious figure who will influence a European political and military superpower. You must not let him deceive you, though his miracle-working deceptions will cause billions to follow him and his false religion. Notice: “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders” (2 Thessalonians 2:9 ). One of the false prophet’s lying wonders will be to call down fire from heaven, as we saw in Revelation 13:13 . The Apostle Paul emphasizes that this false prophet will be a servant of Satan, not of God, and will be judged at the coming of the King of kings, Jesus Christ: “And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming” (2 Thessalonians 2:8 ). Watch religious trends in Europe, where a great religious revival will draw billions to a false and lawless religion. 5. THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION Jesus gave us a vital warning sign: “‘Therefore when you see the “abomination of desolation,” spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place’ (whoever reads, let him understand), ‘then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains’” (Matthew 24:15–16 ). If you’ve read the books of Daniel and Matthew in your Bible, you may have been puzzled by the mysterious “abomination of desolation.” What is it, and what does it mean in end-time prophecy? Clearly, this is an important sign to understand. It signals when God’s people are to flee and escape the final three-and-a-half-year sequence of end-time prophetic devastations. Historically, the Greek ruler Antiochus Epiphanes issued a decree in 167 BC that prohibited the Jews from making temple sacrifices. We read, “And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation” (Daniel 11:31 ). Antiochus not only stopped the daily sacrifices, but also erected in the temple a statue of Jupiter Olympus and directed everyone to worship it. This event, also described in Daniel 8, prefigured a prophesied end-time milestone. “And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days” (Daniel 12:11 ). Yes, 1,290 days before Jesus Christ’s Second Coming, animal sacrifices will again be stopped! Jesus warns Christians to be alert to an end-time abomination of desolation! Just as Antiochus Epiphanes profaned the Temple and cut off the sacrifices in 167 BC, so will a profane authority cut off Jewish sacrifices in the future! You need to watch for developments in Israel that will lead to the restoration of animal sacrifices by religious Jews, and for developments leading to an international treaty allowing these sacrifices. 6. THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD PREACHED TO ALL NATIONS Jesus gave this sign signifying the end of man’s failed attempts to produce world peace: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14 ). You’ve been reading that Gospel in this magazine, which proclaims tomorrow’s world and the Kingdom of God on Earth. Yes, the world-ruling Kingdom of God will bring peace and prosperity to all nations of the earth. It will be ruled by the King of kings and Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ. In fact, Jesus came preaching that Gospel or good news: “Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel’” (Mark 1:14–15 ). The prophet Isaiah reveals an inspiring promise of the Messiah’s world-ruling kingdom of peace: “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this” (Isaiah 9:6–7 ). Today’s world of conflicts, oppression, and wars will be replaced by the Kingdom of God—the government of God. “Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, ‘The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever’” (Revelation 11:15 ). 7. HEAVENLY SIGNS AND THE DAY OF THE LORD Many who watch world news and study Bible prophecy know that a cosmic disturbance in the heavens will shock everyone on earth. Some Bibles include a header above Revelation 6:12 , calling attention to this disturbance: “Sixth Seal: Cosmic Disturbances”—but what does that refer to? Does it mean the recent “blood moon” lunar eclipses that captured so much attention? We read the following: I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place. And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?” (vv. 12–17). So-called “blood moon” eclipses certainly remind us of this prophesied event, but the real thing will be far, far more impressive—even terrifying—and will not be explainable by the positions of the Earth, Sun, and Moon. These prophesied cosmic disturbances will herald the Day of the Lord, the “great day of His [Christ’s] wrath.” Through Scripture, God warns us in advance of future judgments. The Moon will be turned to the color of blood and the Sun will become dark. Thousands of meteors will light up the sky. Yes, judgment is coming on all nations of planet Earth. How can you escape the Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord? Our Savior admonishes us to “take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man” (Luke 21:34–36 ). WATCH AND PREPARE FOR CHRIST’S RETURN! Some preachers misleadingly teach that we cannot understand prophecy and that Jesus Christ may return at any moment. On the contrary, as we have seen from the Bible, and as you can know from other Tomorrow’s World publications, there is a specific prophetic framework in which you can have confidence. But what about you, personally? You may die at any time and wake up to the resurrection of the saints, or to a resurrection of judgment. You cannot afford to delay in responding to your Savior! We look forward to the return of Jesus Christ, the Messiah, to rule all nations and establish the Kingdom of God on Earth for a thousand years. What is your greatest goal? Your Bible gives us the most important and vital goal we could ever set: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:33 ). Watch for these seven signs of Christ’s return, prepare, and pray, “Your kingdom come” (Matthew 6:10 ). For more on this subject, order our free booklet, “Fourteen Signs Announcing Christ’s Return.”

Are you Born again Worship God in Spirit and Truth The Gospel Deuteronomy 13 TEST Are you a true Christian? John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Meaning: “God so loved the world” — God's love extends to all people. “He gave his one and only Son” — God sent His Son for the salvation of mankind. “Whoever believes in him” — The promise is available to anyone who places their faith and trust in Him. “Shall not perish” — Believers are delivered from eternal separation from God. “But have eternal life” — They receive everlasting life with God. Simple Summary: John 3:16 teaches that God loved humanity so much that He gave His Son so that those who believe in Him may receive eternal life rather than perish. Context: These words were spoken by Jesus during a conversation with Nicodemus about the necessity of being born again and entering the Kingdom of God. Are you Born again Yes, that is a profound structural truth in God's plan. Yeshua was literally the first human to be physically raised from the dead into an immortal, glorified body. Scripture calls Him "the firstborn from the dead" (Colossians 1:18) and the "firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep" (1 Corinthians 15:20). By looking at Christ's physical resurrection, we get the exact blueprint for what happens to the saints. The Pattern: Firstfruits and the Harvest In the biblical agricultural cycle—which God uses to explain His plan of salvation—the priest would wave the single sheaf of the Firstfruits harvest before the Father. Only after that first sheaf was accepted could the rest of the harvest be gathered. Yeshua fulfilled this perfectly. He rose as the perfect Firstfruits. Because He broke the power of physical death, those who belong to Him will follow the exact same pattern when He returns. The Ultimate Transformation When the saints are raised at His second coming, they don't return as temporary, mortal flesh like Lazarus did. They receive a physical, permanent, immortal body just like the one Yeshua walked out of the tomb with. As Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 15:52-53: "...the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality." Connecting Physical Resurrection to the Law This physical reality hits modern church traditions with an undeniable challenge: If Yeshua is the firstborn of a brand-new creation, and we are waiting to be physically raised into glorified bodies just like His, why would we live our temporary lives in rebellion to the laws He obeyed? When Yeshua walked the earth in His physical body, He perfectly kept the Sabbath, the dietary laws, and the Feasts. When He rose from the dead, He didn't change. For a Christian to claim they are waiting to inherit a resurrection body like Christ's, while actively treating His Father's commandments as dead, is a total disconnect. "Yeshua told Nicodemus that what is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit, moving like the wind. If you claim you are already fully 'born again' right now, why are you still trapped in a temporary body of flesh and blood instead of a glorified, immortal spirit body? Are you confusing the earnest promise of the Holy Spirit inside you today with the actual, physical rebirth that only happens at the resurrection of the dead?" Jesus Teaches Nicodemus 3 Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.” 3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.[ a ]” 4 “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” 5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit[ b ] gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You[ c ] must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”[ d ] 9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked. 10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? 11 Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. 12 I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? 13 No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.[ e ] 14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,[f ] 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 1. "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart" Meaning: Total dependence on God, not self-reliance (Prov 28:26). Insight: Relational surrender to God’s unchanging character. 2. "And lean not unto thine own understanding" Meaning: Reject intellectual pride; human wisdom is flawed (Prov 14:12). 3. "In all thy ways acknowledge him" Meaning: Constant God-consciousness in every area (Col 3:17). Insight: Turns daily life into guided obedience. 4. "And he shall direct thy paths" Meaning: God’s promise of sovereign guidance (Ps 37:23).

Страх Божы максімальны …12І вось што, сыне мой, папярэджвай: стварэнню шматлікіх кніг няма канца, і шмат вывучэння стамляе цела.13Калі ўсё было пачута, заключэнне справа ў наступным: Страх Бог і трымаць Яго запаведзі, таму што гэта увесь абавязак чалавека. 14Бо кожны ўчынак Бог прывядзе на суд і ўсё схаванае, добрае ці злое. Эклезіяст 12:13 If one turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination. Proverbs 28:9 7 Psalm 101:7 No one who practices deceit shall dwell in my house; no one who utters lies shall continue before my eyes. 7 I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house, and liars will not stay in my presence. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. [f ] I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.” Chist redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree." He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Yeshua Messiah so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. Galatians 3:14 The decrees of Yehovah are trustworthy , making wise the simple. The commandments of Yehovah are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of Yehovah are clear, giving insight into living. Reverence for Yehovah is pure , lasting forever. The laws of Yehovah are true ; each one is fair. They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb. They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them. Psalm 19:7 The one who belongs listens and responds to Yehovah's words. If you don't listen and respond , it is because you don't belong to Yehovah." John 8:47 The phrase "salvation is by grace through faith, not by works, so that no one can boast" comes from the Bible (Ephesians 2:8-9) and emphasizes that salvation is a free gift from God received by faith, not earned through good deeds. While works are not the source of salvation, they are a natural and evidence of a genuine, transformed life that results from receiving God's grace through faith. Every verse requires Obedience Every command is an act of obedience refusal is a deliberate act of defiance We are witnesses of these things and so is the Holy Spirit, who is given by God to those who obey him.” Acts 5:32 And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.” John 3: Must Live Whoever claims to live in him must live as Yeshua did.1 John 2:6 Must Do But don't just listen to God's word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. James 1:2 Love John 14:15, which states, "If you love me, you will keep my commandments". Salvation Matthew 19:17, as stating, "If you want to enter into life, keep the commandments". Faith , James 2:17 states, "So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead" Baptism & Repentance Acts 2:32 Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven, and you will receive the gift of the … Sabbath Exodus 20:8. The full passage, Exodus 20:8-11, explains that six days are for labor, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord, a day to do no work to honor the creation and God's rest. Works Ephesians 2:10, which states, "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" Food laws Leviticus Chapter 11. This chapter details God's instructions to Moses and Aaron regarding which land animals, water animals, birds, and flying insects the Israelites were permitted to eat and which were considered detestable. Born again Yeshua Messiah replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”John 3: Gods appointed days Leviticus 23:1-4, which describes the Lord's appointed feasts (also known as God's holy days) that the Israelites were to proclaim as sacred assemblies at their appointed times. This chapter details the Sabbath and other festivals like the Passover and Festival of Unleavened Bread. Worship God in Spirit and truth John 4:24, where Jesus states, "God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth". This passage emphasizes that genuine worship comes from a transformed inner being (the "spirit"), empowered by the Holy Spirit and unhindered by physical location, and aligns with the revealed truth of God's word and character, Endures to the end Matthew 24:13 in the Bible states, "but the one who endures to the end will be saved" Grafted into Israel – Ephesians 2:12–13 remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Confess Matthew 10:32 is Jesus's command that "everyone who confesses me before men, I also will confess before my Father who is in heaven" Calls on the name Romans 10:13-15 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

Repentance is the key by which we can enter His Kingdom, the way by which we are cleansed to be like Him, and the way He heals a nation. Most of us feel pretty good about ourselves, we don't want anyone to point out anything that make us feel uncomfortable about anything, especially salvation. Відэа пакаяння Пакаянне - гэта ключ, з дапамогай якога мы можам увайсці ў Яго Валадарства, спосаб, якім мы ачышчаемся, каб быць падобнымі да Яго, і спосаб, якім Ён аздараўляе нацыю. Большасць з нас адчувае сябе даволі добра, мы не хочам, каб хто-небудзь адзначаў што-небудзь, што прымушае нас адчуваць сябе нязручна з-за чаго-небудзь, асабліва выратавання. Калі б Пётр прыйшоў у вашу царкву і сказаў тое ж самае, што і ў дзень Пяцідзесятніцы, большасць людзей абвінавацілі б яго ў асуджэнні і расколе. Іегова загадаў нам выконваць Яго запаведзі і пастановы. Чаму не? Ваш пастар не хоча, каб вы адчувалі сябе вінаватымі або пакрыўдзілі свае пачуцці. Калі вы ніколі крытычна не разглядалі сваё сэрца і не спыталі, што я павінен зрабіць для збаўлення, то вы, напэўна, ніколі па-сапраўднаму не пакаяліся. _cc781905- 5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde- 3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b- 136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5c de-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde- 3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b- 136bad5cf58d_ _cc781905- 5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d__cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b -136bad5cf58d_ Reader pay attention 4 Бо як вярнуць тых, што пакінулі веру сваю, да пакаяння? Калісьці яны былі ў Божым святле; яны паспрабавалі дар нябёсаў і атрымалі сваю долю Духа Святога; 5Яны з досьведу ведалі, што слова Божае добрае, і адчулі моц надыходзячага веку. 6 І тады яны пакінулі сваю веру! Іх немагчыма вярнуць да пакаяння, бо яны зноў укрыжоўваюць Сына Божага і выстаўляюць Яго на публічную ганьбу. Габрэям 6:4 Марка 3:29 «але той, хто блюзнерыць (цяперашні час) супраць Духа Святога, ніколі не атрымае прабачэння, але падлягае вечнаму асуджэнню. «Гэта не сцвярджае, што той, хто «блюзнерыў» (прошлы час) Духа, ніколі не атрымае прабачэння._cc781905- 5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ У свой час мы ўсе блюзнерылі над Духам, таму што ўсе мы ненавідзелі Слова Божае... пакуль не прыйшлі да веры і не пачалі расці ў любові да Слова Божага. Вы бачыце розніцу? Не мае прабачэння той, хто актыўна і зараз займаецца непадпарадкаваннем Божаму слову, звыкла, без клопату і клопату, без любові да Слова. Такім чынам, калі вы любіце Слова Божае і маеце жаданне практыкаваць Слова Божае, то вы не блюзнерыце і не пагарджаеце Духам Божым... таму што менавіта Дух Божы з'яўляецца жаданнем у нашым сэрцы ісці за Яго Торай. Ёсць розніца паміж тым, каб у цяперашні час не раскаяцца і блюзнерыць Духа, або ненавідзець Слова Божае....гэтаму чалавеку ніколі не будзе прабачэння....а затым чалавек, які блюзнерыў Духа і пакаяўся, і любіць хадзіць у Яго Торы проста як вучыў і практыкаваў наш Месія ... гэта ён мае прабачэнне. 119 міністэрствы Марка 1:14 «Споўніўся час, - сказаў Ён, - і наблізілася Валадарства Божае. Пакайцеся і верце ў Евангелле!» Лукі 3:8 Прыносьце плён у пакаянні. І не пачынайце казаць самі сабе: бацька ў нас Абрагам. Бо кажу вам, што з камянёў гэтых Бог можа ўзрадзіць дзяцей Абрагаму. Калі Божыя законы былі адменены, то як вы можаце пакаяцца? Каяцца ад чаго? «Пакаянне з'яўляецца перадумовай веры. Што такое пакаянне? Яго асноўнае значэнне - «змяніць» або «павярнуць». Як толькі чалавек пачуе Евангелле і пераканаецца, што яго лад жыцця няправільны, ён павінен змяніць свае паводзіны і вярнуцца да Торы. Іегова называе Тору сваімі настаўленнямі для сваіх дзяцей. Людзі могуць ідэнтыфікаваць вашу паслухмянасць у выкананні Торы як пераход у юдаізм. Здаецца, яны забываюць, што наш Збаўца - габрэй, і тое, што ён сказаў пра ўсіх, хто ў Хрысце, адно? Калі грэх парушае Тору. Паслухмянасць - гэта захаванне Торы. Смуткаваць; жаданне змяніцца; поўная змена мыслення. Змяніце сваё меркаванне ў бок граху, рашэнне пакінуць грэх і слухацца Бога. (грэх ёсць парушэнне Закона); Абярнуцца; зрабіць 180; Калі мы каемся, мы бачым гэтыя тры крокі? Мы адчуваем сябе вінаватымі ў сваім граху, які з'яўляецца парушэннем Торы. Мы перастаем практыкаваць грэх. Мы адвярнуліся ад граху і пачалі хадзіць з Богам. Іаана 3:8 «Вы, нараджэнне змейных, хто перасцерагаў вас уцякаць ад будучага гневу? Прынясіце плён, годны пакаяння. 1 Іаана 2:15-16 Не любіце ні свету, ні таго, што ў свеце. Калі хто любіць свет, у тым няма любові Айца, бо ўсё, што ёсць у свеце (пажадлівасць цела, і пажадлівасць вачэй, і фанабэрыстасць матэрыяльных дабротаў), не ад Айца, але з ад свету. Пакаянне - гэта не проста пачуццё шкадавання або раскаяння, але тое, што чалавек настолькі ўражаны ў сэрцы, што чалавек шукае ачышчэння хростам і пачынае жыць паводле Божых стандартаў - паводле Божага закону. Раскаянне без адпаведнай змены ў паводзінах не ёсць пакаяннем! Плёнам пакаяння з'яўляюцца бачныя ўчынкі, якія часта называюць «справамі», якія паказваюць, што чалавек сапраўды змяніўся. Калі Ян Хрысціцель прапаведаваў пакаянне, каб падрыхтаваць шлях для служэння Іешуа, слухачы спыталі яго, што яны павінны зрабіць, каб пакаяцца. Ён адказвае: Лукі 3:10-14 Апрані голага, накармі галоднага, не крадзі, не выкарыстоўвай сваю ўладу, каб прыгнятаць, не хлусі і не абвінавачвай ілжыва, і будзь задаволены сваёй платай. ● Марка 1:15 Іешуа сказаў: «Прыйдзі ў форме тэрміновага загаду: «Час споўніўся, і Валадарства Божае наблізілася. Пакайцеся і верце ў Евангелле". Гэтыя дзеянні азначаюць выкананне Божых законаў і праяўленне любові да бліжняга. ● Мацвея 19:17 Іешуа сказаў: "Калі хочаш увайсці ў жыццё вечнае, выконвай запаведзі" Ян 12:49-50 Бо Я не ад Сябе казаў, але Айцец, Які Мяне паслаў, Сам даў Мне наказ, што казаць і што казаць. 50 І ведаю, што запаведзь Ягоная - жыццё вечнае. Дык што кажу, кажу так, як сказаў Мне Айцец. Каб прытрымлівацца ўказанняў Бога, вам трэба пайсці туды, дзе яны ўпершыню згадваюцца ў Бібліі. Выконвайце пісьмовыя інструкцыі Торы, першых пяці кніг вашай Бібліі, а не свайго пастара ці каго-небудзь іншага. Псальма 146:2 Буду славіць Госпада, пакуль жывы; Буду спяваць Богу майму, пакуль ёсць. 3 Не спадзявайся на князёў, на чалавека сьмяротнага, у якім няма ратунку. 4 Дух яго адыходзіць; ён вяртаецца ў зямлю; У той самы дзень гінуць думкі ягоныя. Езэкііль 22:26 «Яе святары (пастыры) парушалі закон Мой і апаганьвалі Мае святыя рэчы; яны не рабілі адрознення паміж святым і паганым і не вучылі адрозніваць нячыстае ад чыстага; і хаваюць вочы свае ад суботаў Маіх, і Я апаганены сярод іх. 27. Князі яе ў ёй, як ваўкі, што дзяруць здабычу, праліваючы кроў і губячы душы, каб здабыць несумленную выгаду... Мацьвея 15:8 Гэтыя людзі шануюць Мяне вуснамі, а сэрца іхняе далёка ад Мяне. Яны пакланяюцца Мне дарэмна; яны выкладаюць у якасці дактрыны запаведзі чалавечыя». Мацвея 15:14 Пакіньце іх: яны сляпыя правадыры сляпых. А калі сляпы сляпога вядзе, абодва ў роў упадуць. 2 Карынфянаў 13:15 Праверце і ацаніце сябе, каб убачыць, ці знаходзіцеся вы ў веры і ці жывяце сваім жыццём як [адданыя] вернікі. Выпрабуйце сябе [а не мяне]! Ці вы не пазнаеце гэтага пра сябе [па працяглым вопыце], што Іешуа ў вас - калі вы сапраўды не прайшлі тэст і вас адкінулі як падробку?

Peter explains his vision “God has shown (Peter) me that I should not call any person common or unclean.” Acts 10 and 11 Пітэрс Візон Peter тлумачыць сваё бачанне: «Бог паказаў мне (Пятру), што я не павінен называць нікога паганым або нячыстым». Дзеі 10 і 11 Усе прадукты чыстыя! Нячыстай ежы не бывае! Torah Life Ministries 51,7 тысячы падпісчыкаў Падпісацца 1,3 тысячы Пятра і Карнілія 1 У Кесарыі быў чалавек па імені Карнэлій, сотнік так званай італьянскай кагорты, 2 набожны чалавек, які баяўся Бога з усім сваім домам, шчодра раздаваў людзям міласціну і пастаянна маліўся Богу. 3 Каля дзевятай гадзіны дня ён ясна ўбачыў у бачанні, як увайшоў анёл Божы і сказаў яму: «Карнілій». 4 І ён утаропіўся на яго ў жаху і сказаў: "Што гэта, Госпадзе?" І сказаў яму: «Твае малітвы і твая міласціна ўзышлі на памяць перад Богам. 5 А цяпер пашлі людзей у Ёпію і прывядзі аднаго Сымона, якога завуць Пятром. 6 Ён начаваў у нейкага Сымона, гарбара, дом якога ля мора». 7 Калі анёл, які размаўляў з ім, адышоў, ён паклікаў двух сваіх слуг і аднаго пабожнага салдата з ліку тых, што суправаджалі яго, 8 і, расказаўшы ім усё, паслаў іх у Ёпію. Бачанне Пятра 9 На другі дзень, калі яны былі ў дарозе і набліжаліся да горада, Пётр узышоў на дах каля шостай гадзіныб маліцца. 10 І прагаладаўся, і захацелася есці, але пакуль гатавалі, ён упаў у транс 11 і ўбачыў, як адчыніліся нябёсы і штосьці накшталт вялікага палатна апускалася, апускаючы яго чатырма вугламі на зямлю. 12 У ім былі ўсякія жывёлы, паўзуны і птушкі нябесныя. 13 І быў да яго голас: «Устань, Пётр; забі і з'еш». 14 Але Пётр сказаў: «Ні ў якім разе, Госпадзе; бо я ніколі не еў нічога звычайнага або нячыстага». 15 І другі раз дайшоў да яго голас: «Тое, што Бог ачысціў, не лічы паганым». 16 Гэта здарылася тройчы, і рэч адразу была ўзнесена на неба. 17 У той час як Пётр быў унутрана збянтэжаны адносна таго, што магло азначаць бачанне, якое ён бачыў, вось, людзі, пасланыя Карнэліем, распытаўшы дом Сымона, стаялі каля брамы 18 і паклікаў, каб спытаць, ці не начаваў там Сымон, якога звалі Пятром. 19 І пакуль Пётр разважаў над уяваю, Дух сказаў яму: «Вось, тры чалавекі шукаюць цябе. 20 Устань і спусціся і суправаджай іх без ваганняў,в бо я іх адправіў». 21 І Пётр спусціўся да людзей і сказаў: «Я той, каго вы шукаеце. Якая прычына вашага прыезду?” 22 І сказалі яны: «Карнілій, сотнік, чалавек справядлівы і багабойны, пра якога славіцца ўвесь народ юдэйскі, быў загаданы святым анёлам паслаць па цябе ў дом яго і паслухаць, што ты маеш сказаць.” 23 Такім чынам, ён запрасіў іх да сябе ў госці. На наступны дзень ён падняўся і пайшоў з імі, і некаторыя з братоў з Ёппіі суправаджалі яго. 24 А на наступны дзень яны ўвайшлі ў Кесарыю. Карнэлій чакаў іх і склікаў сваіх сваякоў і блізкіх сяброў. 25 Калі Пётр увайшоў, Карнэлій сустрэў яго, упаў да яго ног і пакланіўся яму. 26 Але Пётр падняў яго, кажучы: «Устань; Я таксама мужчына». 27 І, размаўляючы з ім, ён увайшоў і знайшоў сабраных шмат людзей. 28 І сказаў ім:« Вы самі ведаеце, наколькі незаконна для габрэя мець зносіны з кім-небудзь з іншай нацыі або наведваць яе.але Бог паказаў мне, што я не павінен называць чалавека паганым або нячыстым. 29 Дык калі мяне паклікалі, я прыйшоў без пярэчання. Я пытаюся, чаму вы паслалі па мяне. 30 І сказаў Карнілій: «Чатыры дні таму, каля гэтай гадзіны, я маліўся ў сваім доме а дзявятай гадзіне,d і вось, чалавек стаяў перада мною ў яркім адзенні 31 і сказаў: Карнілій, малітва твая была пачута і міласціна твая ўспомнена перад Богам. 32 Дык пашлі ў Ёпію і папрасі Сымона, якога завуць Пятром. Ён начаваў у доме Сымона, гарбара, на беразе мора.' 33 Таму я неадкладна паслаў па вас, і вы былі ласкавы прыйсці. Дык вось, мы ўсе тут перад Богам, каб пачуць усё, што табе загадаў Пан». Язычнікі чуюць Добрую Вестку 34 Такім чынам, Пётр адкрыў рот і сказаў: «Сапраўды я разумею, што Бог не прадузяты, 35 але ў кожнай краіне той, хто баіцца яго і робіць тое, што правільна, прымальны для яго. 36 Што да слова, якое ён паслаў Ізраілю, абвяшчаючы добрую навіну міру праз Ісуса Хрыста (Ён Пан усіх), 37 вы самі ведаеце, што адбылося па ўсёй Юдэі, пачынаючы ад Галілеі, пасля хрышчэння, якое абвясціў Ян: 38 як Бог памазаў Езуса з Назарэта Духам Святым і сілай. Ён хадзіў, робячы дабро і аздараўляючы ўсіх, каго прыгнятаў д'ябал, бо Бог быў з ім. 39 І мы сьведкі ўсяго, што Ён зрабіў у краіне Юдэйскай і ў Ерусаліме. Яны пакаралі яго смерцю, павесіўшы на дрэве, 40 але Бог уваскрасіў яго на трэці дзень і з'явіўся, 41 не ўсім людзям, але нам, абраным Богам у сведкі, якія елі і пілі з Ім пасля таго, як Ён уваскрос з мёртвых. 42 І ён загадаў нам прапаведаваць людзям і сведчыць, што ён прызначаны Богам суддзёй жывых і мёртвых. 43 Пра Яго сведчаць усе прарокі, што кожны, хто верыць у Яго, атрымае адпушчэнне грахоў імем Ягоным». Дух Святы сыходзіць на язычнікаў 44 Калі Пётр яшчэ гаварыў гэта, Дух Святы сышоў на ўсіх, хто чуў слова. 45 І здзіўляліся вернікі з абрэзаных, якія прыйшлі з Пятром, таму што дар Святога Духа выліўся нават на язычнікаў. 46 Бо яны чулі, як яны гаварылі мовамі і славілі Бога. Тады Пётр заявіў: 47 «Ці можа нехта затрымаць ваду для хрышчэння гэтых людзей, якія атрымалі Святога Духа, як і мы?» 48 І загадаў ім ахрысьціцца ў імя Ісуса Хрыста. Потым папрасілі яго застацца на некалькі дзён. Дзеі 10: Бачанне Пятра - 119 служэнняў Пётр тлумачыць свае дзеянні 11 Апосталы і веруючыя па ўсёй Юдэі пачулі, што і язычнікі прынялі слова Божае. 2. І калі Пётр прыйшоў у Ерусалім, абрэзаныя вернікі крытыкавалі яго 3. і казалі: «Ты ўваходзіў у дом неабрэзаных і еў з імі». 4 Пачаўшы ад пачатку, Пётр расказаў ім усю гісторыю: 5 «Я быў у горадзе Ёппіі і маліўся, і ў трансе ўбачыў уяву. Я ўбачыў нешта накшталт вялікага палатна, спушчанага з неба за чатыры вуглы, і яно апусцілася туды, дзе я быў. 6 Я зазірнуў у яго і ўбачыў чатырохногіх зямных, зьвяроў, паўзуноў і птушак. 7. І пачуў я голас, які казаў мне: «Устань, Пётр». Забі і з'еш». 8. Я адказаў: не, Госпадзе! Нішто нячыстае і нячыстае ніколі не ўваходзіла ў вусны мае». 9 Голас другі раз прамовіў зь неба: нічога з таго, што Бог ачысьціў, не лічыце нячыстым. 10 Гэта здарылася тройчы, і потым усё зноў узнялося на неба. 11. У той час тры чалавекі, пасланыя да мяне з Цэзарэі, спыніліся каля дома, дзе я жыў. 12 Дух сказаў мне, каб я без ваганняў ішоў з імі. Гэтыя шэсьць братоў таксама пайшлі са мною, і мы ўвайшлі ў дом таго чалавека. 13 Ён расказаў нам, як убачыў анёла, які з'явіўся ў яго доме і сказаў: «Пашлі ў Яппію па Сымона, якога завуць Пятром». 14 Ён прынясе табе вестку, праз якую ты і ўвесь дом твой выратуешся». 15. Калі я пачаў гаварыць, Дух Сьвяты сышоў на іх, як і на нас напачатку. 16 Тады я ўспомніў, што сказаў Гасподзь: Ян хрысьціўа ] вадою, а хрысціцца будзеце [б ] Святы Дух». 17 Дык калі Бог даў ім такі самы дар, які даў нам, якія ўверавалі ў Госпада Ісуса Хрыста, хто я такі, каб думаць, што магу стаяць на шляху Богу?» 18. Яны, пачуўшы гэта, не мелі болей пярэчаньняў і славілі Бога, кажучы: «Дык і язычнікам даў Бог пакаяньне, якое вядзе да жыцьця». Касцёл у Антыёхіі 19 А тыя, што былі расьсеяны ад перасьледу, які пачаўся пасьля сьмерці Стэфана, дайшлі да Фінікіі, Кіпра і Антыёхіі, абвяшчаючы толькі Юдэям. 20 Некаторыя ж з іх, Кіпрцы і Кірынейцы, пайшлі ў Антыёхію і пачалі прамаўляць і да Грэкаў, абвяшчаючы ім добрую вестку пра Пана Езуса. 21 Рука Гасподняя была зь імі, і вялікае мноства людзей уверавала і зьвярнулася да Госпада. 22 Вестка пра гэта дайшла да царквы ў Ерусаліме, і яны паслалі Барнабу ў Антыёхію. 23 Калі ён прыйшоў і ўбачыў, што ўчыніла ласка Божая, узрадаваўся і заахвоціў усіх заставацца вернымі Госпаду ўсім сэрцам. 24 Ён быў чалавек добры, поўны Духа Сьвятога і веры, і мноства народу прыводзілася да Госпада. 25 Тады Барнаба пайшоў у Тарс шукаць Саўла, 26 і, знайшоўшы яго, прывёў у Антыёхію. Так цэлы год Барнаба і Саўл сустракаліся з царквой і вучылі мноства людзей. Вучні былі названы хрысціянамі спачатку ў Антыёхіі. 27 У гэты час некаторыя прарокі сышлі з Ерусаліма ў Антыёхію. 28 Адзін з іх, на імя Агаб, устаў і праз Духа прадказаў, што моцны голад распаўсюдзіцца па ўсім рымскім свеце. (Гэта здарылася падчас валадараньня Клаўдзія.) 29. Вучні, як кожны мог, вырашылі дапамагчы братам і сёстрам, якія жылі ў Юдэі. 30. Яны так і зрабілі, паслаўшы дар старэйшынам праз Барнабу і Саўла.

Is Easter pagan? The great Easter fraud Passover Passover (Pesach) is one of the most God mandated Jewish holidays, with several core observances explicitly required by God in the Torah (primarily in Exodus 12–13, Leviticus 23, Numbers 9, and Deuteronomy 16). These are considered divine commandments (mitzvot) rather than later rabbinic customs. Here are the main ones that are directly commanded in the Torah: Remove all leaven (chametz) from your home — On the first day (and for the full seven days), you must eliminate yeast/leavened products entirely. Eating leavened bread during the seven days is forbidden, with severe penalties mentioned (e.g., being "cut off" from the people). (Exodus 12:15–20; 13:7) Eat unleavened bread (matzah) — For seven days, eat only matzah. Specifically, there is a positive commandment to eat matzah on the first night of Passover. (Exodus 12:15, 18, 20; Deuteronomy 16:3, 8) Observe the festival for seven days — The first and seventh days (in the Diaspora, first, second, seventh, and eighth) are holy convocations with no work allowed (except food preparation). (Exodus 12:16; Leviticus 23:6–8) Tell the story of the Exodus — You must recount the events of the deliverance from Egypt to your children on that night. This is the basis for the Haggadah's storytelling. (Exodus 12:26–27; 13:8, 14; Deuteronomy 6:20–25) Eat bitter herbs (maror) — In the original biblical command, this was part of the Passover meal with the sacrificial lamb. (Exodus 12:8) The Passover sacrifice (Korban Pesach) — In Temple times, a lamb or goat was sacrificed on the 14th of Nisan at twilight, eaten roasted that night with matzah and bitter herbs, with strict rules (no bones broken, not taken outside the house, etc.). This is central in Exodus 12 but cannot be performed today without the Temple. (Exodus 12:3–11, 21–27; Numbers 9:1–14) Other elements like the four cups of wine, the Seder plate's full setup (karpas, charoset, etc.), reclining, or specific Haggadah readings are important Jewish customs (minhagim) developed over centuries in rabbinic tradition to fulfill or enhance the biblical commands—but they are not explicitly required in the Torah itself. The holiday commemorates the Exodus from Egypt, the "passing over" of Israelite homes during the tenth plague, and freedom from slavery. Observance is an eternal statute commanded by God (Exodus 12:14, 17, 24). In modern practice (without the Temple), the focus is on matzah, maror, removing chametz, the Seder retelling, and resting on the holy days. Many Jews today emphasize these biblical requirements while incorporating rich traditional customs.

In modern practice (without the Temple), the focus is on matzah, maror, removing chametz, the Seder retelling, and resting on the holy days. Many Jews today emphasize these biblical requirements while incorporating rich traditional customs. סֵדֶר, meaning "order" in Hebrew) is the central ritual of Passover (Pesach). It's a festive, interactive family meal held on the first night (or first two nights outside Israel) of the holiday. The purpose is to fulfill the biblical commandment to tell the story of the Exodus from Egypt to your children and household (Exodus 13:8), reliving the journey from slavery to freedom as if we ourselves were liberated. The Seder follows a structured order laid out in the Haggadah ( the special book used for the evening), which includes prayers, blessings, songs, symbolic foods, discussions, and the retelling of the Exodus story. It typically lasts 2–4 hours (or longer in some homes), blending serious reflection, joy, food, wine, and family participation. Key Elements on the Table Before diving into the steps, here's what you usually see: Seder plate (with symbolic items): Maror (bitter herbs, like horseradish) → bitterness of slavery Chazeret (another bitter vegetable, often romaine lettuce) Zeroa (shank bone or roasted chicken neck) → Passover sacrifice Beitzah (roasted egg) → mourning for the Temple / new life Karpas (green vegetable, like parsley or celery) → spring/renewal Charoset (sweet mixture of apples, nuts, wine) → mortar used by slaves Matzah (three or more unleavened breads, often in a cover) Salt water (for dipping karpas, symbolizing tears of slavery) Four cups of wine (or grape juice) → represent four expressions of redemption Exodus 21 Then Moses called all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs for yourselves according to your clans, and kill the Passover lamb. 22 Take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that is in the basin , and touch the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin. None of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning. 23 For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses to strike you. 24 You shall observe this rite as a statute for you and for your sons forever. 25 And when you come to the land that the Lord will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this service. 26 And when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ 27 you shall say, ‘It is the sacrifice of the Lord’s Passover, for he passed over the houses of the people of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians but spared our houses.’” And the people bowed their heads and worshiped. 28 Then the people of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did. The Tenth Plague: Death of the Firstborn 29 At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of the livestock. 30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians. And there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where someone was not dead. 31 Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as you have said. 32 Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also!” The Exodus 33 The Egyptians were urgent with the people to send them out of the land in haste. For they said, “We shall all be dead.” 34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading bowls being bound up in their cloaks on their shoulders. 35 The people of Israel had also done as Moses told them, for they had asked the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry and for clothing. 36 And the Lord had given the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. Thus they plundered the Egyptians. 37 And the people of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. 38 A mixed multitude also went up with them, and very much livestock, both flocks and herds. 39 And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough that they had brought out of Egypt, for it was not leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt and could not wait, nor had they prepared any provisions for themselves. 40 The time that the people of Israel lived in Egypt was 430 years. 41 At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 42 It was a night of watching by the Lord, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the Lord by all the people of Israel throughout their generations. Institution of the Passover 43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner shall eat of it, 44 but every slave b that is bought for money may eat of it after you have circumcised him. 45 No foreigner or hired worker may eat of it. 46 It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and you shall not break any of its bones. 47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it. 48 If a stranger shall sojourn with you and would keep the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised. Then he may come near and keep it; he shall be as a native of the land. But no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. 49 There shall be one law for the native and for the stranger who sojourns among you.” 50 All the people of Israel did just as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron. 51 And on that very day the Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts.

"Do you want to believe what the Bible says or what you have been taught it says? I can prove it The Final Verdict "The cross was never meant to be a place where the Law died; it was the place where the Penalty was paid so that you could finally be empowered to obey. If you come to the cross but flee from the Commandments, you haven't been saved —you've just been comforted in your rebellion."You’re like a convict handed a full pardon who chooses to stay locked up just for the free meals." Stop turning back. The same Yeshua who bled for you is the same God who wrote the Commandments with His own finger. "You cannot have the King without His Commandments. Choose the whole Truth, or you have nothing at all." Betrayal of God Names matters 12 tribes of Israel Гэй, Крысціян, у цябе праблема, дзе пра гэта сказана ў Пісанні? Хрыстос нарадзіўся 25 снежня.

But 1 John 233:4 says sin is the breaking of the Law. The Confrontation: "How can you celebrate being saved from your sins while simultaneously bragging that you don't have to keep the Law? If the Law is gone, then sin no longer exists, and you didn't even need a Savior. Read 1 John 3:4." The Verse: "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." The Shock: "If you refuse to keep the Commandments, you are saying, 'I want to be forgiven for breaking the rules, but I reserve the right to keep breaking them.' That isn't faith; that is a legal insult to the Judge. You are asking for a pardon while holding the weapon you used to commit the crime." The "Love" Deception Most people say, "I don't need the Commandments; I just love God." The Confrontation: "You claim to love the Creator, but you refuse to listen to how He wants to be loved. The Bible doesn't let you define love your way. Read 1 John 5:3." The Verse: "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous." The Shock: "If you turn away when confronted by the Commandments, you are proving that you don't actually love God—you love the feeling of being forgiven. You love yourself, not the Creator." The "Narrow Gate" vs. The "Wide Cross" People want a "Wide Cross" that accepts everyone regardless of their rebellion. But Yeshua described a Narrow Gate. The Confrontation: "Modern religion has invented a broad path where you can confess Messiah with your lips but live like the rest of the world. But the real Yeshua didn't offer a frictionless road. Read Matthew 7:13-14." The Verse: "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." The Shock: "The Gate is narrow because the Commandments are the boundary. If you turn around when you see the requirements of the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and the Appointed Times, you are choosing the Wide Road. You are essentially saying the price of following the real Yeshua is too high. You would rather have a comfortable lie than a difficult Truth." The "Great Disconnect" (The Hypocrisy of the Covenant) This is the "Great Disconnect" of modern Christianity. People treat the cross like a drive-through window for mercy, but they treat the Commandments like a wall they refuse to climb. The Confrontation: "You want the benefits of a King without honoring His jurisdiction. You claim the protection of the Blood of the Covenant, but you flatly reject the Terms of the Covenant. You cannot sign a legal contract, claim the inheritance, and then tear up the stipulations. Read Hebrews 10:29." The Verse: " Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?" The Shock: "If you are delivering this as a 'Shock and Awe' message, you have to expose the hypocrisy of wanting the Blood of the Covenant while rejecting the Terms of the Covenant. To take His blood for your cleansing while calling His Sabbath or His dietary instructions 'done away with' is to treat His sacrifice as a cheap license for lawlessness. You aren't honoring the Savior; you are treating the ultimate cosmic execution as a get-out-of-jail-free card so you can keep running your own life." . The Cowardice of the Partial Convert "You are willing to walk to the cross because it feels like a gift, but you turn your back the moment you see the Commandments. You want a Savior, but you refuse a Lord." The Confrontation: "You have a selective faith that only accepts the parts of God that give you comfort while fleeing from the parts that demand your submission. You want the security of His sacrifice, but you are too terrified to let Him govern your schedule, your plate, or your lifestyle. Read Luke 6:46." The Verse: "But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do the things which I say?" The Shock: "A partial conversion is nothing more than spiritual cowardice. It is the mindset of a person who wants the crown but despises the crown's authority. True conversion requires a total surrender of your self-will. If you only obey God when it aligns with what you already wanted to do, you aren't serving the King—you are still serving yourself." The Proof of Love In John 14:15, Yeshua directly links love to action, removing all room for emotional sentimentality or lip service. The Confrontation: "You can weep at the altar, raise your hands during the worship songs, and tell anyone who will listen how much you love Jesus. But the Messiah Himself does not measure your love by your goosebumps or your tears. He measures it by your track record of obedience. Read John 14:15." The Verse: "If ye love me, keep my commandments." The Shock: "To claim you love Him while walking in open defiance of His Torah—ignoring His Sabbath, His Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times—is a profound delusion. You are treating the King of Kings like a casual boyfriend whom you can sweet-talk while completely ignoring his boundaries and expectations. True love isn't an emotion you feel; it is a legal, actionable commitment to submit to His authority." Testing Your Profession In 1 John 2:4, the Scripture sets an absolute, uncompromising standard for anyone who claims to belong to the Almighty, emphasizing that lip service without a changed life is a falsehood. The Confrontation: "You tell people you have a personal relationship with the Creator. You check the box on your social media profile, wear the jewelry, and claim to 'know' Him. But the Bible has a brutal, single-sentence test to determine if you are telling the truth or telling a lie. Read 1 John 2:4." The Verse: "He that saith, 'I know him,' and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." The Shock: "This isn't a suggestion; it's a legal verdict from the Word of God. According to the Apostle John, if you boast about knowing the Savior but refuse to guard His Torah—His Sabbath, His Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times—the Bible doesn't call you a 'growing Christian' or a 'believer under grace.' It calls you a liar. If your profession of faith doesn't alter your lifestyle, your calendar, and your obedience, your testimony is nothing but a fraudulent presentation to the world." The Distinction (Stumble vs. Betrayal) You have to know the difference between a servant who trips on the path and a rebel who walks off it. The Confrontation: "Many people excuse their lifelong disregard for God's instructions by saying, 'Nobody's perfect, we all stumble.' But there is a massive legal difference between a soldier who falls in the mud during battle and a deserter who runs to the enemy's camp. Read Proverbs 24:16." The Verse: "For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again, but the wicked shall fall into calamity." The Shock: "A stumble is a mistake made while trying to stay on the narrow path, followed by immediate repentance (Teshuvah). Betrayal is the intentional decision to walk away from the path because you prefer your own way over His. Bottom Line: Betrayal is knowing the Master’s house rules and choosing to treat them as optional. When you know the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and the Appointed Times are His standard, yet you deliberately choose to treat them as suggestions, you aren't stumbling—you are walking in open revolt." The Reality of False Conversion: Just Getting Wet True salvation demands a total legal surrender: absolute repentance, a dedication to obedience, and the execution of baptism. If you go through these motions without a radical change of mind and direction, you are simply getting wet. The Confrontation: "People treat baptism like a magical ritual that automatically punches their ticket to heaven, regardless of how they live afterward. But water cannot wash away a rebellious heart. You walk out of the water just as lost as you went in, because an unrepented record of debt cannot be canceled. Read Acts 5:32." The Verse: " And we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him." The Shock: "To legally belong to the Creator, you must receive His Holy Spirit and actively walk in His Truth. But here is the hard line: God will never give His Holy Spirit to those who choose to live in disobedience. If your lifestyle still rejects the Sabbath, the Dietary Laws, and His Appointed Times, you are operating without the Spirit of Christ. You haven't been born again; you just went for a swim while holding onto your sins." The Execution of Spiritual Blindness Without the indwelling of the Spirit, a devastating spiritual sentence is carried out against you. The Confrontation: "You think you can reject the Master's instructions and still have spiritual clarity. But the moment you walk away from His Torah, a legal judgment takes place in your mind. You are stripped of your discernment, leaving you completely vulnerable. Read Isaiah 29:10." The Verse: "For the Lord has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets; and He has covered your heads, the seers." The Shock: "Without the indwelling of the Spirit, a devastating spiritual sentence is carried out against you: The Standard of True Alignment True alignment with the Almighty cannot be faked, bartered, or replaced by a pastoral ritual. It requires a two-part structural reality. The Confrontation: "Many believe that a regular church attendance record, a title, or a recommendation from a pastor gives them legal standing before the throne. But the Judge does not accept human credentials or forged paperwork. Read John 4:24." The Verse: "God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." The Shock: "True alignment requires a two-part structural reality: An Internal Transformation executed strictly by the Holy Spirit. An Unwavering Commitment to worship Him in Spirit and in absolute, uncompromised Truth. Without both, you are standing in a courtroom trying to present a fraudulent contract to the Judge. You cannot bring the 'spirit' of emotional worship while throwing out the 'truth' of His Commandments, nor can you bring cold ritual without the Spirit. If you lack either one, the contract is null and void, and you are legally exposed before the Court." The Resurrection: The "True" Hope In the Hebrew mindset, the reward isn't "going to heaven" as a disembodied soul. The reward is the Resurrection of the Body at the end of the age. The Confrontation: "Modern religion has invented a sentimental, unbiblical fairy tale about floating off to heaven on a cloud the moment you die. This pagan view of a disembodied afterlife completely bypasses the central hope of the scriptures: the physical resurrection from the dead. Read John 3:13 and Acts 2:34." The Verses: * Yeshua’s Fact: "No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven." (John 3:13) David’s Fact: "For David did not ascend into the heavens..." (Acts 2:34) The Shock: "The Biblical Timeline is clear: when a person dies, they return to the dust—entering a state of sleep in Sheol—where they remain until they are awakened by the Master at the 'Last Trumpet.' By replacing the Resurrection with an instant escape-to-heaven philosophy, you strip the return of Messiah of its ultimate power. You don't go to Him in the sky forever; He comes down here to awaken His saints from the dirt, conquer death, and establish His physical Kingdom on the earth." The "Thief on the Cross" Objection This is the verse most often used by the carnal mind to "prove" that people go to heaven immediately when they die, bypassing the resurrection. The Confrontation: "People point to the thief on the cross as a get-out-of-jail-free card for an instant escape to heaven. They use one sentence to wipe out the entire biblical timeline of the resurrection. But they are completely missing the grammatical and historical reality of the text. Read Luke 23:43." The Verses: * The Thief's Request: "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom." (Luke 23:42) Yeshua's Response: "And Jesus said to him, 'Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.'" (Luke 23:43) The Shock: " The original Greek text had no punctuation or commas. Where a translator places the comma completely changes the meaning: Interpretation A (Traditional): 'Truly I tell you, today you will be with me...' Interpretation B (Hebrew Context): 'Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise.' The absolute proof is that Yeshua Himself did not go to Paradise or heaven that afternoon. He went into the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. Three days later, He told Mary Magdalene in John 20:17, 'Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father.' If the Master Himself hadn't gone to heaven yet, the thief wasn't there either. Yeshua was giving a solemn promise on that specific day of crucifixion that the thief would ultimately have a place in the future, physical Kingdom at the resurrection." The "Truth Only" Summary According to the literal text, when a person dies, they "rest" or "sleep" in the grave (Sheol). They remain there, unconscious of the passage of time, until the Resurrection at the return of Yeshua. The Confrontation: " Stop looking for an escape hatch into a disembodied, spiritualized ether. The Almighty created man from the dirt of the ground, and His ultimate plan has always been a physical, earthly inheritance. The focus of the end times is not about us going up to live with Him—it is about Him coming down to live with us. Read Revelation 21:3." The Verse: " And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.’" The Shock: "The 'True' destination for the righteous is not a distant heaven, but a restored Earth where the Master sets up His throne. You are not going to spend eternity floating away from the physical creation; you are going to be resurrected into an incorruptible body to rule and reign right here on the ground. To cling to the traditional 'heavenly reward' is to fundamentally misunderstand the destination of the Narrow Road." To address the "true rapture" using the Truth Only approach, we must distinguish between the popular modern "Left Behind" theory and what is actually written in the original Greek and Hebrew manuscripts. The Confrontation: " Modern church culture has fed you a comforting fairy tale of a secret, silent escape pod designed to snatch you away before things get difficult. You’ve been trained to look for a backdoor out of tribulation instead of preparing your house to endure it. Read 1 Thessalonians 4:17." The Verse: "Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we shall always be with the Lord." The Shock: "The word 'Rapture' does not even appear in your English Bible. It comes from the Latin rapio, translating the Greek harpazo (to snatch or seize). But the modern church has completely twisted the mechanics, the timing, and the purpose of this event to fit a narrative that the ancient prophets and apostles never taught." 1. The Timeline: Pre-Tribulation vs. Post-Tribulation The most common modern teaching suggests that believers disappear before a time of trouble. However, if we look at the literal words of Yeshua, the sequence is completely reversed. The Verse (Matthew 24:29-31): "Immediately after the tribulation of those days... they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds..." The Shock: "In the literal words of the Messiah Himself, the 'gathering'—what you call the Rapture—happens after the tribulation, not before. The modern church is prepping people for an escape that isn't coming, leaving an entire generation completely unequipped to stand firm in the face of the enemy." 2. The "One Taken, One Left" Misconception Many people use Matthew 24:40 ("two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left") to describe a secret vanishing act of the righteous. But in a Hebrew context, being 'taken' is a death sentence. The Verse (Matthew 24:38-39): "For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be." The Shock: "Go back to the pattern of Noah's day. The ones 'taken' were not the righteous flying away to safety—the ones 'taken' were the wicked who were swept away by the judgment of the flood to their destruction! The ones 'left behind' were Noah and his family, the righteous who remained on the ground to inherit the cleansed earth. You are actively praying for the wrong outcome." 3. The Historical Origin of the Secret Escape If this secret, pre-tribulation flight plan isn't in the literal words of Scripture, where did it come from? The Fact: "This doctrine was virtually unknown for the first 1,800 years of Church history. It was popularized around 1830 AD by John Nelson Darby, who developed a system called 'Dispensationalism.' It became cement in the American mind when it was printed in the study footnotes of the Scofield Reference Bible in 1909. You are risking your spiritual survival on a 19th-century human invention that was cross-referenced into your margins." 4. The Hebrew Concept: The Royal Meeting In the ancient world, when a King or a Bridegroom approached a city, the citizens did not run out to meet him so they could escape with him back to his home. They went out to escort him into their territory. The Verse (Matthew 25:6): "And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’" The Shock: " In 1 Thessalonians 4:17, the Greek word for 'meet' is apantesis. In ancient custom, and in every other New Testament usage (like the Parable of the Ten Virgins), apantesis means going out to greet an arriving dignitary and immediately turning around to escort him back to where he was heading. The 'Rapture' is not a flight away to heaven for seven years; it is a glorious, royal welcome in the air to meet the arriving King, Yeshua, as He descends to execute judgment and establish His permanent Kingdom right here on E arth."

God’s Promises to Those Who Keep His Commands God will reveal Himself to us. “He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him” (John 14:21 ). God will dwell with us. “If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him” (John 14:23 ). We will abide in God’s love and our joy will be full. “If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full” (John 15:10–11 ). We will know that we know and love God. “And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. . . . Whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him” (I John 2:3 , 5 ). “If ye love me, keep my commandments ” (John 14:15 ). We will show love to God’s children. “By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments” (I John 5:2 ). We will be friends of Christ. “Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you” (John 15:14 ). Our prayers will be answered. “And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight” (I John 3:22 ). We will be disciples. “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another ” (John 13:34–35 ). Remember: “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure ” (Philippians 2:13 ). Living a life of obedience to God is not found by striving or trying harder, but rather by abiding in Christ. God is the One that works in you to will and to do His good pleasure. In I Thessalonians Chapter 5, after a list of important commands such as “Pray without ceasing,” “In every thing give thanks,” and “Quench not the Spirit,” we find this verse: “Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it” (verse 24).

[ ] YES [ ] NO Do you realize that the English name "Jesus" completely removes this linguistic link, stripping the Father’s name out of the Messiah’s identity?[ ] YES [ ] NO Now that you know the original, covenant name given by the angel from heaven (Matthew 1:21), will you consciously choose to honor it over later altered forms?[ ] YES [ ] NO Are you aware that the name "Jesus" (Iesus) came from the Greek "Iēsous" and later Latin, which changed the original Hebrew pronunciation and meaning?[ ] YES [ ] NO Do you recognize that the Apostles and early believers called the Messiah by His Hebrew name, not a later Greco-Roman version?[ ] YES [ ] NO Are you aware that the Sacred Name Yahshua preserves the direct connection to the Father’s Name Yahweh, as emphasized in Scripture?[ ] YES [ ] NO Do you believe that restoring the original name Yahshua is necessary for returning to the pure faith of the early believers?[ ] YES [ ] NO Are you aware that the name "Jesus" has no meaning in Hebrew, while Yahshua clearly means "Yahweh saves"?[ ] YES [ ] NO Do you understand that it is important to use the Savior’s name as it was originally given in Hebrew rather than later translated and altered forms?[ ] YES [ ] NO Will you make a deliberate effort to use the name Yahshua (or Yeshua) in your prayers, worship, study, and daily life moving forward?[ ] YES [ ] NO Do you reject any name that breaks the connection to Yahweh’s salvation embedded in the true name?[ ] YES [ ] NO Are you committed to using only the original Hebrew name regardless of popularity or custom?[ ] YES [ ] NO Scoring 13–15 Yes: Full alignment with the original truth. 9–12 Yes: Strong recognition but room to fully apply. 0–8 Yes: Still holding to altered forms. Factual Note: The Messiah’s original name was Yeshua (יֵשׁוּעַ), a shortened form of Yehoshua (יְהוֹשׁוּעַ / Joshua). Hebrew etymology: It derives from the root יָשַׁע (yasha — to save, deliver, rescue). The name combines the theophoric prefix Yah (from יהוה / Yahweh) + shua (salvation/cry for help), literally meaning "Yahweh saves" or "Yahweh is salvation." Hebrew Alphabet History: The Hebrew alphabet consists of 22 letters and has never included the letter "J" or the "J" sound. Ancient Hebrew used the yod (י) which produces a "Y" sound (as in "yes"). The Savior’s name in Hebrew letters is ישוע (Yod-Shin-Vav-Ayin), pronounced approximately Yeh-shoo-ah or Yah-shoo-ah. The letter J did not exist in any alphabet until the 15th-17th centuries in European languages WHY are they HIDING GOD'S NAME? | The YESHUA TRUTH the CHURCH won’t TELL YOU The change of these names was not a single event, but a three-stage mechanical breakdown of the original Hebrew Blueprint. It was driven by a combination of linguistic "telephone" and a deliberate effort by the Roman-led Church to distance the faith from its Hebrew roots. To understand why the names, the Sabbath, and the Feasts were changed, you have to look at the Council of Nicaea (325 AD) and the Council of Laodicea (363 AD). This wasn't just a "misunderstanding"; it was a deliberate divorce from the Hebrew Blueprint. The Roman-led Church didn't just want to "add" to the faith; they wanted to kill the root to make the religion acceptable to the Roman Empire. 1. The Greek "Translation" (Stage One) As the message moved into the Roman Empire, the Hebrew names were squeezed into the Greek language, which lacked the proper sounds to support them. Yeshua (ישוע) became Iēsous. Because Greek has no "Sh" sound and requires male names to end in "s," the name was structurally altered. Yochanan became Ioannes (John). Ya'akov became Iakobos (James). 2. The Latin "Standard" (Stage Two) When the Roman Catholic Church took control, they translated the Greek into Latin (the Vulgate). Iēsous became Iesus. The names were further "Latinized" to fit the tongue of Rome, moving them even further away from the original sound and meaning intended by Yehovah. 3. The English "Invention" (Stage Three) This is where the final "addition" occurred. As you noted, the letter "J" is a late addition to the alphabet. The Timeline: For 1,500 years, the name was pronounced with an "I" or "Y" sound. The Change: In the 16th and 17th centuries, English printers began using the "J" to distinguish the consonant sound. Iesus became Jesus. The Result: A carnal world accepted a name that is phonetically disconnected from the Father. By the time you get to "Jesus" or "James," the Hebrew connection to Salvation and Yehovah has been completely erased. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? While linguists blame "natural evolution," the Truth reveals a more calculated culprit: The Spirit of Rome: The Roman Church sought to create a "Universal" (Catholic) religion. To make it palatable to the pagan world, they stripped away the "Jewishness" of the Savior and His disciples. The Translators: Men like Jerome and later English scholars prioritized the "sound" of their own languages over the Sanctity of the Original Name. The Mechanical Failure By changing the names, they "subtracted" the power of the Hebrew identity and "added" a Western identity. Ya'akov (the name of the Patriarch) was turned into James—a name that didn't even exist in the ancient world. Yeshua (The Father's Salvation) was turned into a generic, 600-year-old English label. The Verdict: If you are following "Jesus and James," you are following a Westernized translation. If you want to walk the Narrow Way, you must return to the Original Blueprint: Yeshua and His disciples who lived and died by the Torah. As the language is read right to left, the letter sequence is . actually HWHY, and means this pictographically: H = ה = hey = behold/reveal/breath W = י = yod = arm/hand/work/deed/worship H = ה = hey = behold/reveal/breath Y = ו = vav = nail/secure/add/and When read pictographically, the word YHWH means, “Behold the hand, behold the nail.” As others have pointed out, this would mean nothing in Judaism. But in Christianity, the hand and nail are direct references to Jesus’ crucifixion, the defining act around which the entire Christian faith revolves. So for some Christians, the name YHWH is God telling humanity how He will save them. Імёны маюць значэнне «Грэх - ведаць, што трэба рабіць, і не рабіць гэтага». Ці ведаеце вы, што Святое Пісанне было зменена, каб змяніць імя Бога ў вашай Бібліі больш за 6800 разоў? Яго імя не «Гасподзь». Слоўнік Вэбстэра вызначае слова «Лорд» як нехта ці штосьці, якое мае ўладу, уладу або ўплыў; гаспадар або кіраўнік. гэта прозвішча. Чалавек выдаліў імя Нябеснага Айца і Яго Сына са сваёй уласнай кнігі. Магчыма, імёны не вельмі важныя ў сучасным свеце або для вас, але ў пісаннях мы можам выявіць, што яны вельмі важныя. Габрэйскае імя Іешуа (ישוע) - гэта імя Яго Сына. Іешуа азначае выратаванне, імя Ісус не мае значэння, англійскаму перакладу ўсяго 400 гадоў. Няправільнае выкарыстанне імя Іеговы, Бога твайго, азначае парушэнне трэцяй запаведзі. Гэта блюзнерства, гэта «дарэмнае прыняцце» імя Бога Ізраіля. Яго імя Сын было зменена каля 900 разоў. У яго габрэйскае імя, ён габрэй, Яго імя не Ісус. Яго імя Іешуа, што азначае выратаванне. Імя Месіі ніколі не было "Ісус", а імя "Ісус" на самай справе з'яўляецца вынаходніцтвам чалавека. Ці ведаеце вы? Літары J усяго 400-500 гадоў, і яна не сустракаецца ў габрэйскім алфавіце. Пытанне, якое прыйшло мне ў галаву гэта: «Ці можна называць Ісуса іншым імем?» Вы, напэўна, адкажаце «не». Я б спытаў вас, чаму можна змяніць Яго імя на Ісус? Пасланне да Габрэяў 1: 3 Гэта паказвае, што Сын нашмат большы за анёлаў, як і імя, дадзенае Яму Богам, большае за іх імёны. У наступных вершах тлумачыцца, што імёны важныя, Сам Іегова дасць тым, хто перамог, новае імя. Адкрыцьцё 2:17 «Кожны, хто мае вушы, каб чуць, павінен слухаць Духа і разумець, што Ён кажа цэрквам. Кожнаму, хто пераможа, Я дам крыху манны, схаванай у нябёсах. І дам кожны па белым камені, і на камені будзе выгравіравана новае імя, якое ніхто не разумее, акрамя таго, хто яго прымае. Філіпянаў 2:9 Такім чынам, Бог узнёс яго на месца найвышэйшага гонару і даў яму імя вышэй за ўсе іншыя імёны, Зыход 20:7 «Не ўжывай імя Госпада Бога твайго злоўжываць, бо Гасподзь не пакіне без віны нікога, хто злоўжывае імем Ягоным. Рымлянам 10:12 Бо няма ніякай розніцы паміж габрэем і грэкам: (хрысціянін) Той самы Гасподзь ёсць Гасподзь усіх, і багаты для ўсіх, хто заклікае Яго, 13, «Кожны, хто кліча імя (Іеговы), будзе быць захаваны.» 14 Як жа яны могуць заклікаць Таго, у Каго ня верылі, і як могуць яны верыць у Таго, пра Каго ня чулі? І як яны могуць пачуць без кагосьці прапаведаваць? Калі толькі вы не хочаце працягваць хлусню вашага бацькі Ерамія 16:19. «Нашы бацькі не атрымалі ў спадчыну нічога, акрамя хлусні, марнасці і бескарысных рэчаў». Ці можа чалавек зрабіць сабе багоў? Але яны не багі! Вызначэнне слова "дарэмны" ў слоўніку Вэбстэра: не мае рэальнай сутнасці, каштоўнасці або важнасці; пуста; пустата; нікчэмна; нездавальняючы. "Твае марныя апраўданні.'' ... прафан: лячыць (нешта святое) з непачцівасцю або непавагай. Святатства Бог не хоча, каб мы змянялі або змянялі яго імя або імя Яго Сына якім-небудзь чынам. Трэцяя запаведзь вельмі выразная: «Не вымаўляй імя Іеговы, Элагіма твайго, дарэмна». Імя Бога, якое часцей за ўсё выкарыстоўваецца ў габрэйскай Бібліі, — ЯВЭ (,(י ה ו ה ЯГОВА, што азначае выратуе. Хто ўзышоў на неба і сышоў? Хто сабраў вецер у кулакі? Хто ахінуў ваду Сваёй вопраткай? Хто ўсталяваў усе канцы зямлі? Як Яго імя ці імя Яго Сына? 6. Вядома, вы ведаеце. Выслоўі 30:4
