The first to plead his case seems just until another comes and examines him.Teachings that are not found in your bible and are taught as truth. One compromise here, another there and soon the so-called Christian and man in the world look a like. We know everything in life we know if something is a creator there must be a creator Proof in 60 seconds that there is a God When you see a painting you know there was a painter When you see a building you know there is a builder When you see creation and how complex and functional and beautiful there was and is a creator. Proof the Torah is true and divine. If the Torah makes one mistake it is not written by God The Creator The world has around 72% water 8 miles deep there are millions of fish in all the waters no one has ever found a fish with scales that don't have fins.is it possible someone who could have written this over 3,000 years ago who could have written such a thing except the creator? The Torah says which animals are good to eat and which ones are not to eat There are 2,000,000 different kinds of animals in the world God gives us two wittness split huffs and chew its cud. Two signs to make sure the animal is cosher God says be careful there are four exceptional animals The pig, Cammel, hair, and Rabbat. Torah commands Jews to circumcise their babies on the 8-day Vitamin K is 110% only on the 8-day who knew it but the creator? The new moon is never less than 29 days and 1,2 us 29.530.88 Geromand 29 530.89 Здаецца, першы, хто адстойвае сваю справу, пакуль не прыйдзе іншы і не агледзіць яго. Выслоўі 18:17 Вучэнні, якіх няма ў вашай Бібліі і выкладаюцца як праўда. Адзін кампраміс тут, другі там, і неўзабаве так званы хрысціянін і чалавек у свеце будуць падобныя на Тозера Калі хрысціяне паміраюць, яны ідуць на неба. Яны ў лепшым месцы. Стары запавет для габрэяў, а новы запавет для ўсіх астатніх. Ніхто не можа выконваць запаведзі. Вы можаце жыць як д'ябал і пры гэтым трапіць у рай. Святы Божы суботні дзень адпачынку адменены. Субота была зменена на нядзелю, таму што Апосталы збіраліся ў першы дзень тыдня. Законы Левіта пра ежу, паводле якіх Бог сказаў, што нельга есці і не дакранацца да нячыстага мяса, прызначаны толькі для габрэяў. Існуе таемнае захапленне толькі для хрысціян, выключаючы іх з смутку. Закон Божы быў прыбіты да крыжа. Цялесныя хрысціяне не падпарадкоўваюцца закону, але яны падпарадкоўваюцца ласкі. Іешуа зрабіў гэта, каб нам не прыйшлося. Пасля захавання заўсёды захоўваецца. Проста папрасіце Іешуа ў сваё сэрца аб выратаванні. Адзінае патрабаванне для веры - гэта прызнанне існавання Бога. Хрышчэнне мае толькі сімвалічнае значэнне і не патрабуецца для выратавання. Евангелле - гэта пахаванне смерці і ўваскрасенне. Прытрымлівацца Божых указанняў - законніцтва. Вы габрэй, калі захоўваеце законы аб харчаванні, суботу, Божыя святы і ўсе Божыя запаведзі, як Іешуа. Важна толькі тое, што вы адчуваеце ў сваім сэрцы, нават калі яно паганскае. Нараджэнне Іешуа адбылося 25 снежня, і што ў полі былі пастухі і авечкі, і што Марыя і Іосіф павінны былі падарожнічаць зімой. Царква можа хрысціянізаваць язычніцкія святы, такія як Каляды, Вялікдзень і Хэлоўін. Незразумелыя лісты Паўла зводзяць на нішто Божае слова і Яго інструкцыі. Прыйдзе час, калі людзі не будуць слухаць дакладных вучэнняў. Замест гэтага яны будуць прытрымлівацца ўласных жаданняў і атачаць сябе настаўнікамі, якія кажуць ім тое, што яны хочуць пачуць. 2 Цімафею 4:3 У нашых дзеянняў ёсць наступствы — вечныя наступствы. Тое, што мы робім, сведчыць аб тым, у што мы верым. Няхай вас не ўвядуць у зман — вы не можаце здзекавацца з Божай справядлівасці. Вы заўсёды будзеце збіраць тое, што пасадзіце. 8 Тыя, хто жыве толькі дзеля таго, каб задаволіць сваю грэшную прыроду, будуць жаць гніенне і смерць ад гэтай грэшнай прыроды. Але тыя, хто жыве, каб дагаджаць Духу, будуць збіраць вечнае жыццё ад Духа. Galatians 6:7-8 _cc781905-5cde-3194 -bb3b-136bad5cf58d_

For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.The purpose of life? And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true Yehovah, and Yeshua messiah, the one you sent to earth. Have reverence for God, and obey His commands, because this is all that we were create Child of God or a child of the Devil EVERY SINGLE WORD in the Bible deserves our highest regard and careful obedience. Scripture isn't a collection of suggestions or optional wisdom —it's God-breathed, profitable for teaching, correcting, and guiding us in righteousness (as 2 Timothy 3:16 puts it). We should hold each word in reverence and commit to following it fully, letting it shape how we live, speak, and love others. Вы любіце Бога? What does God’s word actually say about this —plainly, without my spin?” It’s easier to justify than to submit. It’s more comfortable to reinterpret than to repent. (James 1:23–25). Scripture splits humanity into two distinct categories based on their relationship to God and His commandments. If God calls His covenant-keeping people saints (those set apart), He refers to the others as: 1. The Lawless (or Wicked) In the New Testament, Yeshua and the Apostles frequently contrast the saints with those who live without regard for God's instructions. The Greek term: Anomia (literally "without law" or "violating the law"). The Warning: I n Matthew 7:23, Yeshua warns those who claim to know Him but ignore the commandments: "Depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!" 2. The Unjust (or Unrighteous) The Bible repeatedly contrasts the two groups when discussing judgment. The Contrast: In 1 Corinthians 6:1, Paul asks why a believer would take a matter before the unjust rather than before the saints. The Destiny : 2 Peter 2:9 states that God knows how to deliver the godly, but keeps the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment. 3. The Children of Disobedience (or Children of the Devil) When addressing who rules a person's life and actions, Scripture uses family terms. The Actions : Ephesians 2:2 speaks of the spirit that works in the children of disobedience. The Definition: 1 John 3:10 draws the line clearly: "In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness [keeping the commandments] is not of God." The Definitive Verse: Revelation 14:12 identifies the first group perfectly: "Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Yeshua." By biblical definition, anyone outside of that description falls into the category of the lawless, the unjust, or the disobedient. This diagnostic test uses the final book of scripture to draw a line in the sand. It forces you to look at the two distinct categories of humanity established by the Creator, using Revelation 14:12 as the ultimate boundary marker. 📋 The "Saints vs. The Lawless" Definitive Boundary Test Instructions: Answer these 4 direct questions to determine which biblical category your daily life, your habits, and your theology place you in. Question 1: The Mark of a Saint In Revelation 14:12, the scripture gives a precise, two-part definition of a saint: "Here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Yeshua." Based on this verse, how do you define your identity? A) A Saint (Set-Apart). You recognize that true faith in the Messiah is inseparable from a physical walk of keeping the Father's Torah. Your life displays both parts: total trust in Yeshua and meticulous care for His instructions. B) A Cultural Believer. You claim to have "faith in Jesus," but you believe His commandments are obsolete or optional, cutting the verse in half and choosing a path that scripture defines as incomplete. Question 2: The Practice of Anomia (Lawlessness) In Matthew 7:23, the Master issues a terrifying warning to people who fully believed they were in the Kingdom: "Depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness (anomia—living without regard for God's law)." When you examine your lifestyle, do you treat the Torah as active law? A) You Reject Lawlessness. You actively study the Torah to identify sin so you can completely purge it from your actions, treating His rest days, dietary boundaries, and moral laws as non-negotiable. B) You Practice Anomia. You live your life based on church traditions, personal feelings, or cultural convenience, considering yourself exempt from the physical laws of God under the guise of "grace." Question 3: The Fruit of Righteousness vs. Disobedience According to 1 John 3:10, the line between the children of God and the children of the devil is stark: "Whoever does not practice righteousness [keeping the commandments] is not of God." When the Father looks at your daily practice, what family lineage does it reveal? A) A Child of God. Your regular, daily practice is righteousness. You actively obey the Father's voice, making your spiritual DNA obvious through visible, physical fruits of obedience. B) A Child of Disobedience. Your daily practice matches the world's standard. You follow the crowd, ignore the biblical calendar, eat what the world eats, and shrug off the lifestyle of Yeshua, aligning with the spirit described in Ephesians 2:2. Question 4: The Courtroom of the Unjust In 1 Corinthians 6:1, Paul rebukes believers for seeking judgment and direction from the "unjust" (unrighteous) rather than from the saints. When you seek wisdom, direction, or validation for how you live, where do you go? A) The Royal Law. You turn strictly to the unchanging Word of God and the example of Yeshua, using the standard of the saints to settle how you walk. B) The Standard of the World. You look to the theological systems of the modern world, human consensus, or comfortable sermons that tell you exactly what your itching ears want to hear, relying on an unjust standard. The Definitive Verdict: Review where your checked boxes land. Scripture leaves zero room for a third option, a middle ground, or a gray area. If your choices consistently land on B, the mirror exposes a vital reality: By biblical definition, anyone who does not keep the commandments of God and the faith of Yeshua falls directly into the category of the lawless, the unjust, or the disobedient. True faith is not a mental concept or a verbal claim—it is a physical lifestyle. If you want to be counted among the saints who endure with patience, you must abandon the broad road of anomia today and begin walking exactly as Yeshua walked. , Дзіця Іеговы Ці дзіця д'ябла. Бо тыя, хто вядзецца Духам Божым, з'яўляюцца дзецьмі Божымі. Ісая 61:1 Мэта жыцця? І гэта шлях да жыцця вечнага — пазнаць Цябе, адзінага праўдзівага Бога, і месію Іешуа, таго, каго Ты паслаў на зямлю. Ян 17:3 Пасля ўсяго гэтага застаецца толькі адно сказаць: шануй Бога і выконвай Яго загады, таму што гэта ўсё, для чаго мы створаны, гэта абавязак кожнага. Эклезіяст 12:13 Што такое грэшнік? Кожны, хто грашыць, парушае Божы закон, таму што грэх - тое самае, што парушэнне Божага закону. 1 Яна 3:4 Той, хто робіць тое, што з'яўляецца грахом, ад д'ябла, 1 Яна 3:8 Бог ненавідзіць малітвы чалавека, які ігнаруе закон. Выслоўі 28:9 Усе хлусы апынуцца ў вогненным возеры палаючай серы. Гэта другая смерць» Адкрыцьцё 21:8 Вы павінны быць апраўданы . Бо не слухачы закона справядлівыя перад Богам, але выканаўцы закона будуць апраўданыя. Рымлянам 2:13 Вы павінны пакаяцца Я прыйшоў паклікаць не тых, хто лічыць сябе праведнымі, а тых, хто ведае, што яны грэшнікі і павінны пакаяцца». Лукі 5:32 Вы павінны быць праведнікам Дарагія дзеці, не дазваляйце нікому падмануць вас наконт гэтага. Калі людзі робяць тое, што правільна, гэта паказвае, што яны праведныя, як і Хрыстос праведны. 8 Але калі людзі працягваюць грашыць, гэта паказвае, што яны належаць д'яблу, 1Яна 3:7 Я прыйшоў не заклікаць тыя, хто лічыць сябе праведнымі, але тыя, хто ведае, што яны грэшнікі і павінны пакаяцца. «Лукі 5:32 Абавязак кожнага з бацькоў? Гэтыя словы, якія Я наказваю табе сёння, будуць у сэрцы тваім. 7. Навучы іх сынам тваім і кажы пра іх, калі сядзіш у доме тваім, і калі ідзеш дарогаю, і калі кладзешся, і калі ўстаеш. 8. І навяжы іх у знак на руку тваю, і будуць яны на лобе тваім. 9. Напішы іх на вушаках дома твайго і на брамах тваіх. Другі закон 6:4-9 Кожны павінен нарадзіцца звыш Кожны, народжаны ад Бога, адмаўляецца ад граху, бо ў ім жыве насеньне Божае; ён не можа працягваць грашыць, таму што ён нарадзіўся ад Бога. 10 Гэтым адрозніваюцца дзеці Божыя ад дзяцей д'ябла: кожны, хто не чыніць праўды, не ёсць ад Бога, і той, хто не любіць брата свайго. 1 Іаана 3:9 Што будзе з вамі, калі вы памрэце? Кожны чалавек павінен аднойчы памерці, а потым быць асуджаным Богам, Габрэям 9:27 Вера ў Бібліі вызначаецца як: Вера - гэта: вера ў тое, што ўсё, што Бог сказаў, праўда, абавязацельства прытрымлівацца таго, што ў ім сказана, а затым выконваць тое, што кажа Слова. Іншымі словамі, вера/давер, абавязацельства падпарадкоўвацца або рабіць, а затым дзеянне падпарадкоўвацца/выконваць гэта. Па-іншаму мы кажам, што вера - гэта вера, прыхільнасць і давер Богу і Яго Слову. Усё чалавецтва знаходзіцца «пад законам» (законам граху і смерці), пакуль яны не ўвойдуць у запавет праз веру ў Месію і не атрымаюць выратаванне па мілаце праз гэтую веру. Дзеці Божыя праз веру 23 Перш чым шлях веры ў Хрыста быў даступны для нас, мы былі пастаўлены пад ахову закону. Нас трымалі, так бы мовіць, пад вартай, пакуль не адкрыўся шлях веры. 24 Дазвольце сказаць інакш. Закон быў нашым апекуном да прыходу Хрыста; яно абараняла нас, пакуль мы не змаглі выправіцца перад Богам праз веру. 25 І цяпер, калі наступіў шлях веры, мы больш не маем патрэбы ў законе, як апекуне. 26 Бо ўсе вы дзеці Божыя праз веру ў Хрыста Езуса. 27 І ўсе, хто злучыўся з Хрыстом у хрышчэнні, апрануліся ў Хрыста, як апрануўшыся ў новае адзенне. Бо ўсе вы адно ў Хрысце Езусе. 29І цяпер, калі вы належыце Хрысту, вы сапраўдныя дзеці Абрагама. Вы яго спадкаемцы, і вам належыць Божае абяцанне Абрагаму. Шлях нашага выратавання - гэта вера ў тое, што мы зграшылі і заслугоўваем смерці, бо так сказана ў Слове. Ян 3:3 Ісус адказаў: «Я кажу вам праўду, калі вы не народжаныя звыш, вы не можаце ўбачыць Валадарства Іеговы.» Дзеі 2:38 Пётр адказаў: «Кожны з вас павінен пакаяцца ў сваіх грахах і звярнуцца да Госпада і прыняць хрост у імя Іешуа Месіі для прабачэння вашых грахоў. Тады вы атрымаеце дар Святога Духа. Прыказкі 28:9 Хто адвярнуў вуха сваё, каб не слухаць закона, нават малітва яго будзе агіднай. Эклезіяст 12:13 Вось і ўся гісторыя.

Бо вы ўсе адно ў Хрысце Іешуа. Якава 1:22 Але не проста слухайце слова Іеговы. Вы павінны рабіць тое, што там сказана. У адваротным выпадку вы толькі падманваеце сябе. «Тады Іегова сказаў мне: выкрыкні паведамленне! Не стрымлівацца. Скажы народу Майму Ізраілю: ты зграшыў! Вы павярнуліся супраць Іеговы, вашага Элагіма. Ісая 58:1 "Калі вы кажаце ім усё гэта, не чакайце, што яны вас паслухаюць. Выкрыквайце свае папярэджанні, але не чакайце, што яны адкажуць.

І горш за ўсё тое, што бацька пакінуў Яго, кінуў Яго перад усім светам. Ён зрабіў гэта для нас, мы павінны жыць, як Ён. 1 Іаана 2:6 Ён не еў ні вяндліны, ні крэветак, ні пепероні, ні любой ежы, якую Бог назваў нячыстай.

Размаўляйце пра іх, калі вы дома і калі вы ў дарозе, калі кладзецеся спаць і калі ўстаеце. 8 Прывяжыце іх да рук і надзеньце на лоб як напамін. 9 Напішы іх на вушаках дома твайго і на варотах тваіх».

Ці задумваліся вы калі-небудзь, чаму Іегова загадаў нам не ўжываць у ежу некаторых жывёл? Жывёлы, якіх Ён загадаў нам не есці, - гэта смяцяры, птушкі ці жывёлы, якія сілкуюцца мёртвымі жывёламі, якіх не забілі самі. 9 З усіх істотаў, якія жывуць у водах мораў і рэчак, можна есьці ўсё, што мае плаўнікі і луску. 10.

Левіт 11. Ён усіх прыцягне да адказнасці The Vision (Acts 10:9–16) Peter was hungry and fell into a trance. He saw a great sheet descending from heaven containing "all kinds of four-footed animals, reptiles, and birds of the air." A voice told him, "Rise, Peter; kill and eat." Peter, being a devout Jew, refused, saying he had never eaten anything "common or unclean." The voice replied: "What God has made clean, do not call common." Peter’s Own Interpretation Initially, Peter was "greatly perplexed" by the vision. However, the meaning became clear when he was immediately invited to the home of Cornelius, a Roman Centurion (a Gentile). According to Jewish tradition at the time, Jews were not supposed to associate with or visit people of other nations because they were considered "unclean." Peter explicitly interprets the dream in Acts 10:28: "He said to them: 'You are well aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile. But God has shown me that I should not call any person common or unclean.'" Summary of the Meaning The Symbol: The "unclean" animals in the sheet. The Reality: The Gentiles (non-Jewish people). While the animals weren't exactly "thrown up in the air," they were lowered from the sky in a large sheet held by its four corners. After the sheet was lowered and then "taken up" again three times, Peter eventually provided the specific interpretation for what the dream meant. 1. Land Animals For a land animal to be considered food, it had to meet two specific criteria simultaneously: It must have completely split hooves (cloven-footed). It must chew the cud (ruminate). StatusExamples Clean (Food)Cows, Sheep, Goats, Deer, Gazelles. Unclean (Forbidden)Pigs (split hoof, but no cud), Camels (cud, but no hoof), Rabbits (chew, but no hoof). 2. Sea Creatures For creatures living in the water (seas or rivers) to be considered food, they had to have: Fins Scales Anything that lives in the water but lacks both—such as shellfish (shrimp, lobster, crabs), eels, or sharks—was considered an "abomination" (shekets) and was not to be eaten. 3. Birds The Law does not give a specific physical "test" for birds like it does for mammals. Instead, Leviticus 11 lists 20 specific birds that are forbidden. The Rule of Thumb: Generally, birds of prey (eagles, hawks, vultures) and scavengers (ravens) are forbidden. Clean Birds: While not listed by name as "clean," birds like chicken, turkey, duck, and quail have traditionally been accepted because they are not scavengers. 4. Insects Most insects were forbidden, with one notable exception: locusts, crickets, and grasshoppers (insects that have "jointed legs for hopping on the earth"). Why these specific laws? There are three main perspectives on why Yehovah gave these instructions: Holiness and Separation: The primary reason given in the text is to make a distinction between Israel and the surrounding nations. To "belong" to Yehovah (as we discussed in John 8:47) meant even their diet reflected His order. Hygiene/Health: Many "unclean" animals are scavengers that carry parasites or toxins (like pork or shellfish). While the Bible focuses on the spiritual aspect, many see a secondary benefit in health. Symbolism: Some scholars argue that clean animals (like sheep) represent the peaceful nature of God's people, while unclean animals (like predators) represent violence and death. Knowing and loving God Deuteromy 13 1-7 Worshiping other G Not Human: God's nature is distinct from humanity; He is not fallible like humans. Doesn't Lie: He does not speak falsehoods or deceive. Doesn't Change Mind: He doesn't regret or alter His plans or promises. Faithful to His Word: If God speaks or makes a promise, He will certainly act on it and make it good.Numbers 23:19 John 10:35 1 John 2:4, if someone claims to know God but does not keep his commandments, they are considered a liar, and the truth is not in them Land Scavengers (The Pig/Swine) Because pigs are omnivorous scavengers with a very rapid digestive system, they act as a "reservoir" for various biological threats. Pathogens (Living): Trichinella spiralis: A parasitic roundworm that causes Trichinosis. The larvae encyst in the muscle tissue. +1 Yersinia enterocolitica: A bacteria that causes acute gastrointestinal distress, often found in pork products. Taenia solium: Known as the "pork tapeworm." If humans ingest the eggs, it can lead to Cysticercosis, where larvae migrate to the brain or muscles. Toxins (Chemical): High Histamine Levels: Swine have high levels of histamine, which can trigger inflammatory or allergic responses in some humans. Environmental Pollutants: Because pigs store waste in their fat cells due to fast digestion, they carry higher concentrations of pesticides and herbicides found in their feed compared to ruminants. Based on the biological facts we have discussed, here is a concentrated summary of the risks associated specifically with eating pork (swine). These risks stem from the animal's unique anatomy and its role as a scavenger. 1. Parasitic Risks (Living Organisms) Pork is a primary host for several parasites that can migrate from the meat into human tissue. Trichinella spiralis: This roundworm causes Trichinosis. When a human eats infected pork, the larvae mature in the intestines and then travel through the bloodstream to embed themselves in the person's muscle tissue. Taenia solium (Pork Tapeworm): Ingesting the larvae leads to intestinal tapeworms. However, ingesting the eggs (found in contaminated pork environments) causes Cysticercosis, where the larvae form cysts in the brain, which is a leading cause of seizures worldwide. 2. Digestive Efficiency and Toxins The most significant biological difference between "clean" ruminants (like cows) and "unclean" swine is how they process waste. Rapid Metabolism: A pig's digestive system is very simple and fast (roughly 4 hours). Unlike a cow, which has four stomach compartments to ferment and filter out toxins over 24 hours, the pig's system does not effectively neutralize or eliminate many of the poisons it consumes. Storage in Fat: Because toxins are not fully eliminated, they are stored in the animal’s adipose (fat) tissue. Since pork meat is "marbled" (fat is woven through the muscle), these toxins cannot be simply trimmed away. 3. Bacterial Pathogens Pork is a frequent carrier of several bacteria that thrive in the scavenger's environment. Yersinia enterocolitica: This is a common contaminant in pork. It causes fever and abdominal pain that is often mistaken for appendicitis. Listeria monocytogenes: Pork products, especially processed ones, are high-risk for Listeria, which is particularly dangerous for pregnant women and those with weakened immune systems. 4. Viral Risks Pigs are often referred to as "mixing vessels" for viruses because their cells are susceptible to both human and avian (bird) viruses. Hepatitis E: Research has shown that a significant percentage of commercial pork livers carry the Hepatitis E virus, which can cause acute liver inflammation in humans. Fact Check: Does Cooking Fix This? As established, while cooking pork to an internal temperature of 160°F can kill the parasites (like Trichinella), it does not remove the chemical toxins, heavy metals, or viruses that have been biologically integrated into the meat and fat. Natural Marine Biotoxins These are produced by microscopic algae (phytoplankton). Shellfish eat the algae, but the toxins do not hurt them; they just store them in their tissues. +1 Saxitoxins (PSP): Causes Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning. These are among the most poisonous natural substances known. They block nerve signals, leading to numbness, paralysis, and in severe cases, respiratory failure and death. +1 Domoic Acid (ASP): Causes Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning. This toxin can cross into the brain and destroy neurons. Symptoms include vomiting and confusion, and it can lead to permanent short-term memory loss or death. +1 Okadaic Acid (DSP): Causes Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning. This results in severe gastrointestinal distress (vomiting, cramps, and diarrhe a). +1 Brevetoxins (NSP): Causes Neurotoxic Shellfish Poisoning. These affect the sodium channels in the nervous system, leading to tingling sensations and loss of coordination. Fact: These biotoxins are heat-stable. This means that unlike bacteria, cooking, steaming, or freezing does not destroy them. If the toxin is in the meat, it remains dangerous no matter how well it is cooked. +2 2. Bacterial and Viral Pathogens Because shellfish are often found in coastal areas where runoff occurs, they concentrate human and animal waste products. Vibrio vulnificus: A bacteria naturally found in warm seawater. It can cause life-threatening blood infections (septicemia), especially in people with liver disease or weakened immune systems. Hepatitis A: A virus that affects the liver. Shellfish harvested from water contaminated by sewage are a major source of this virus. Norovirus: The leading cause of "stomach flu. " Shellfish concentrate this virus from the water, often leading to large outbreaks. 3. Heavy Metals and Pollutants As bottom-feeders, they are in constant contact with the sediment where pollutants settle. Mercury, Lead, and Cadmium: Shellfish can have levels of heavy metals many times higher than the surrounding water. Microplastics: Recent studies show that because they filter so much water, shellfish are one of the primary sources of microplastic ingestion for humans .

No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven—the Son of Man. Betraying God Christianity, the most lawless religion on earth The church lied to us 13 Ніхто падняўся у нябёсы акрамя той, хто спусціўся ад неба- у Сын чалавека. 10 commandments 613 commandments Ёсць 1050 запаведзяў у новым запаветніку Churches Who Teach Us to Keep Sunday Admit It’s NOT the Sabbath of the Bible Хрыстос адкупіў насад праклёну закону стаўшы для нас праклёнам, бо напісана: «Пракляты кожны, хто павешаны на дрэве», "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. Christianity, the most lawless religion on earth You can be sure the False Prophet and the Man of Lawlessness will certainly come from the only religion that has promoted and pushed Lawlessness (not obeying God’s Laws) since the beginning. Keeping in mind that Christianity, the most lawless religion on earth since it actually forbids observing God’s Law, is over 30% of the world, so we got our first indication of what kind of percentage we might be looking at taking the mark. If you do the things God hates and refuse to keep His commandments and encourage others to do the same, they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment will rise forever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” NOT THE MARK OF GOD “YEHOVAH” Teaching against obedience to God’s commandments is a betrayal of His Word because it directly undermines His authority in four ways: It Erases the Definition of Sin: Scripture explicitly defines sin as "the transgression of the law" (1 John 3:4). If you throw out the Law, you destroy the only boundary that defines right from wrong. It Defies Yeshua’s Direct Warning: The Messiah specifically warned that anyone who breaks the commandments and teaches others to do so will be called the least in the Kingdom (Matthew 5:19).If "least" literally meant a low-ranking person inside the Kingdom, Yeshua would be saying that a carnal, commandment-breaking believer is somehow spiritually superior to John the Baptist. That makes no sense. But if "least" means the person who hasn't even entered yet (the mortal believer still waiting on the outside), the phrase makes perfect sense. It Replaces Divine Truth with Human Tradition: Bypassing God's Feasts, dietary laws, and Sabbath always leads to a common substitution—making the Word of God "of none effect" through human traditions (Mark 7:13). It Separates Faith from True Loyalty: Scripture states, "This is the love of God, that we keep his commandments" (1 John 5:3). Teaching against obedience strips believers of the concrete actions required to show true covenant loyalty. The Bottom Line: Telling people they are free to ignore the Father's instructions mimics the very first deception in the Garden: "Yea, hath God said...?" It doesn't just misinterpret Scripture; it actively trains people to live in comfortable transgression. Yeshua the Messiah Modern Christianity He kept the Leviticus food laws. Eat unclean He kept the seventh day Sabbath Holy Observe Sunday Yeshua is the LORD of the Sabbath. Only for the Jews He kept all of God’s feast days. Observe Christmas, Easter He kept all God’s commandments and statutes. Done away with He was totally submersed during baptism. Without repentance Gospel message coming to Kingdom Death burial and resurrection Sin is the transgression of the law Ten suggestions He wore tassels on the hems of his clothing. These statistics, highlighted in Barna research, indicate a shift toward moral relativism and syncretism among American Christians, prioritizing subjective experience over traditional doctrine. Key findings show that 72% argue that people are basically good. 71% consider feelings, experience, or the input of friends and family as their most trusted sources of moral guidance. 66% say that having faith matters more than which faith you pursue. 64% say that all religious faiths are of equal value. 58% believe that if a person is good enough, or does enough good things, they can earn their way into Heaven. 58% contend that the Holy Spirit is not a real, living being but is merely a symbol of God’s power, presence, or purity. 57% believe in karma. 52% claim that determining moral truth is up to each individual; there are no moral absolutes that apply to everyone, all the time Self-identified Christians are also likely to reject a number of biblical teachings and principles. For example, slightly less than half. (46%) believe that the marriage of one man to one woman is God’s plan for humanity, across all cultures; j ust 40% believe that when they die they will go to Heaven, but only because they have confessed their sins and accepted Jesus Christ as their savior; only one-third. 34% believes that people are born into sin and can only be saved of the consequences by Jesus Christ; just one-third. 32% believes premarital sex is morally unacceptable; and about one out of every four. 28% believes that the best indicator of a successful life is consistent obedience to God. Teachings that are not found in your bible and are taught as truth. One compromise here, another there, and soon the so-called Christian and man in the world look alike a.w Tozer When Christians die, they go to heaven. They are in a better place. The Old Testament is for the Jews and the New Testament is for everyone else. No one can keep the commandments. You can live like the devil and still go to Heaven. God’s holy Sabbath's day of rest is done away with. The Sabbath was changed to Sunday because the Apostles met on the first day of the week. The Leviticus food laws, that God said don't eat or touch unclean meat, are only for the Jews. There is a secret rapture for Christians only, excluding them from the tribulation. The law of God was nailed to the cross. Carnal Christians are not under the law, but they are under Grace. Yeshua did it so we don't have to. Once saved always saved. Just ask Yeshua into your heart for salvation. The only requirement for Believing is acknowledging God’s existence. Baptism is just a symbolic meaning and is not required for salvation. The Gospel is the death burial and resurrection. Following God's instructions is legalistic. You are a Jew if you keep the food laws, the Sabbath, God's feast days, and all God's commandments like Yeshua did. It just matters what you feel in your heart, even if it is pagan. Yeshua's birth happened on December 25, and there were shepherds and sheep in the fields and Mary and Joseph were required to travel in the winter. The church can Christianize pagan holidays, like Christmas, Easter, and Halloween. Paul's misunderstood letters nullify God’s word and His instructions. A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear. 2 Timothy 4:3 There are consequences— eternal consequences—to our actions. What we do is evidence of what we believe. Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. 8 Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest eternal life from the Spirit.

Yehovah gave us a set of instructions He called the Torah. The Torah consists of the first five books of the bible. There are approximately 600 instructions in the Torah, some for men, some for women, some for Priests, some for children and others pertaining to the temple. The Complete Jewish Bible CJB Gods Commands 613 OT and 1050 NT Gods Instructions God’s Promises to Those Who Keep His Commands The Ten Commandments: God's Law of Love Video Marathon: The Ten Commandments 613 Laws of God Don't Just Hear Torah, Live Torah The purpose of life Тора відэа There is now one single law that rules both Jew and Greek alike: One law for Jews and Greeks: faith in the crucified and risen Jesus. That is why Paul can say in the very next breath after “neither Jew nor Greek”: “You are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:28–29). Same promise. Same inheritance. Same law. No exceptions. No special tracks. This is what the Bible define sin Breaking the Sabbath? Yes (Exodus 20:8) — By working, shopping, or doing regular business on the 7th day. Gossip or Talebearing? Yes (Leviticus 19:16) — By sharing rumors or venting about others behind their backs. Dishonest Business/Time? Yes (Deuteronomy 25:13-15) — By cutting corners on the job or cheating an employer on hours. Holding a Grudge? Yes (Leviticus 19:18) — By keeping a mental scorecard or harboring hidden bitterness. Showing Favoritism? Yes (James 2:9) — By treating someone better because of their wealth or social status. Tuning Out God's Commands? Yes (Proverbs 28:9) — By actively closing your ears to the Law, which makes even your prayers detestable. Willful Ignorance? Yes (Leviticus 5:17) — By breaking a command even if you claim you "didn't realize" it; the Bible still holds you accountable. Refusing to Listen to Warning? Yes (Zechariah 7:11-12) — By stopping up the ears and making the heart like flint so the words of the Law cannot get through. Forgetting the Law Over Time? Yes (Hosea 4:6) — By neglecting to study or pass down the commandments until they are forgotten entirely. Replacing the Messiah's True Hebrew Name? Yes (Jeremiah 23:27, Exodus 23:13) — By substituting the original Hebrew name Yeshua (which means "Yahweh is Salvation") with translated names, which many scriptural literalists argue obscures His true identity, lineage, and the Hebrew roots of the faith. General Disobedience to God's Commandments? (1 John 3:4, Matthew 19:17) — By walking in intentional lawlessness and choosing not to live according to the rules and instructions laid out by the Father. Ignoring God's Appointed Days (Feasts/Moedim)? (Leviticus 23, Numbers 29:40) — By bypassing or replacing the set-apart calendar dates God specifically called "My Feasts" and commanded His people to keep forever. Instead keeping Pagan Christmas and Easter Violating God's Dietary/Food Laws? Yes (Leviticus 11, Deuteronomy 14) — By eating animals that God explicitly designated as unclean and forbidden, which defiles the body He called to be set apart. Teaching against obedience to God’s commandments is a betrayal of His Word because it directly undermines His authority in four ways: It Erases the Definition of Sin: Scripture explicitly defines sin as "the transgression of the law" (1 John 3:4). If you throw out the Law, you destroy the only boundary that defines right from wrong. It Defies Yeshua’s Direct Warning: The Messiah specifically warned that anyone who breaks the commandments and teaches others to do so will be called the least in the Kingdom (Matthew 5:19).If "least" literally meant a low-ranking person inside the Kingdom, Yeshua would be saying that a carnal, commandment-breaking believer is somehow spiritually superior to John the Baptist. That makes no sense. But if "least" means the person who hasn't even entered yet (the mortal believer still waiting on the outside), the phrase makes perfect sense. Conclusion: Sin is the transgression of God's law (1 John 3:4) , then the key question is whether a particular action violates a command of God as revealed in Scripture. Therefore, determining what is or is not sin should come from God's Word rather than personal opinion, tradition, culture, or majority belief. If God commands it, obedience is righteousness; if God forbids it, disobedience is sin. The standard is not what people think, but what God has spoken. Spiritual separation from God: "Your iniquities have separated you from your God" (Isaiah 59:2). Ongoing sin creates distance in your relationship with God. Guilt, shame, and inner torment: Many people describe a heavy conscience, anxiety, or spiritual emptiness. Damaged character and bondage: Yeshua said, "Everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin" (John 8:34). Habits of lying, lust, anger, greed, etc., get stronger and harder to break. Earthly consequences: Broken relationships, health issues (e.g., from sexual sin, addiction, violence), financial ruin, loss of reputation, and legal problems. Eternal consequences: The New Testament warns that unrepentant, ongoing sin leads to spiritual death and hell (Romans 6:23 – "The wages of sin is death"). However, genuine repentance and faith Yeshua brings forgiveness. The Greatest Commandment And you shall teach them diligently to your children and speak of them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 9 Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates.… And you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. 2 Timothy 3:16 After the Ten Commandments, God gave the Israelites a vast body of laws, traditionally summarized as the Law of Moses, or the Torah. These laws, found primarily in the books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, provided a comprehensive framework for the Israelites' religious, social, and civil life. Jewish tradition holds that there are 613 commandments (known as the mitzvot) within this law. These commandments are often categorized into three main groups: Moral Laws: These are the ethical principles that reflect God's character and are universally applicable. The Ten Commandments are the core of this category, but it also includes principles like "love your neighbor as yourself" and prohibitions against gossip and injustice. Ceremonial Laws: These laws pertained to religious rituals and worship, designed to set the Israelites apart and teach them about holiness and atonement. They include instructions on: Sacrifices and Offerings: Detailed rules for different types of sacrifices for sin, peace, and thanksgiving. The Priesthood: Regulations for the priests (the tribe of Levi) and their duties in the Tabernacle. Festivals and Holy Days: Observances for events like Passover, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles. Dietary Laws: The rules of kosher (clean and unclean) foods. Civil (or Judicial) Laws: These laws governed the daily life of the Israelite community and dealt with matters of justice, property, and social order. They were designed to create a just and compassionate society and included regulations on: Judicial Procedures: Rules for fair trials, the need for multiple witnesses, and punishments for various crimes. Property Rights: Laws concerning theft, damage, and inheritance. Social Justice: Specific protections for the poor, widows, orphans, and foreigners, reflecting God's concern for the vulnerable. The purpose of this extensive legal code was to establish Israel as a "kingdom of priests and a holy nation," distinct from the surrounding pagan cultures. The laws were not simply a list of rules, but a means to guide the Israelites in their covenant relationship with God and to prepare them for life in the Promised Land. Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. 18 For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 So then, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do likewise will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever practices and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.… The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; NIV The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. Psalms 19:7 Прыказкі 28:9 Хто адварочвае вуха сваё, каб не слухаць закону, нават малітва яго - агіда.

Наступныя вершы вельмі ясна паказваюць, што Бог дае нам выбар, які мае вечныя вынікі. 16 Усё Сьвятое Пісаньне натхнёнае Богам і карысна для навучаньня, выкрыцьця, выпраўленьня і выхаваньня ў праведнасьці, 17 каб слуга Божы быў падрыхтаваны да ўсякай добрай справы. 2 Цімафею 3:16-17 («Стары» і «Новы» Запаветы - гэта раздзяленне чалавекам Божага слова; уся Біблія - гэта інструкцыі Бога, як любіць Яго і нашых бліжніх. І гэта дастасавальна да ўсіх) _cc781905-5cde- 3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_ КАНЧАТНЫ СУД "Хто адвяргае Мяне і не прымае слоў Маіх, мае суддзю: СЛОВА, ЯКОЕ Я КАЗАЎ, яно будзе судзіць яго ў апошні дзень". Іаана 12:48 Калі людзі адмаўляюцца прыняць Божы прысуд над грахом на Галгофе ў Месіі і адмаўляюцца судзіць сябе паводле таго Слова, якое з'яўляецца адзіным беспамылковым стандартам, тады застаецца толькі пакаранне за іх грэх, якое з'яўляецца прысудам да знішчэння. Вечная смерць з'яўляецца наступствам граху на неадроджаным чалавеку. І які народ такі вялікі, што мае пастановы і суды такія справядлівыя, як увесь гэты закон, які я даю вам сёньня?

Другі закон 30:11 Бог сказаў, што Ён не хлусіць і не перадумвае, і Яго Сын зрабіў ясна, што Божая дактрына не змяняецца. Калі хтосьці сцвярджае, што Божы закон быў зменены, ці не называюць яны Бога хлусам?

Закон, які Ён абвясціў, цвёрды, зрабіўшы падобным і дзіця. 8 Законы Госпада справядлівыя, даюць радасьць сэрцу. Слова Госпада чыстае, яно сьвеціць вачам. «Пісанне», на якое спасылаецца Цімафей, - гэта тое, што многія людзі называюць Старым Запаветам, Новы Запавет яшчэ не быў напісаны. 2 Пятра 1: 20-21 Але перш за ўсё ведайце гэта, што ніякае прароцтва Пісання не з'яўляецца прадметам уласнай інтэрпрэтацыі. Прыказкі 10:8 Мудры атрымае загады, а балбатлівы дурань загіне Большасць людзей лічыць, што закон быў толькі для габрэяў або што ён быў прыбіты да крыжа, аднак Іегова сказаў: Ніжэй прыведзена табліца, якая паказвае важных людзей з пачатку часоў, дыяграма вызначае, ці былі яны габрэямі і ці выконвалі яны законы і статуі Іеговы. Іх назвалі б сапраўдным Ізраілем. Бо няма розьніцы паміж Юдэем і Грэкам; бо той самы Гасподзь, Іегова, ёсць Элагім Бог усіх, багаты на багацце для ўсіх, хто кліча Яго; 13 за “ХТО БУДЗЕ НАЗВАЦЬ ІМЯ ІЕГАВА БУДЗЕ ВЫРАТАВАНА.

Tribulation Three types of people 1. Those who take up the sword will die by the sword Matthew 26, 26:52. 2. Don’t be afraid of what you are about to suffer.

Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: Ezekiel 37:16-28

And they said, 'All that the Lord has said we will do, and be obedient.'" The New Covenant Hebrews 8: 10 For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds and inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they will be My people. 11 No longer will each one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest.… Габрэям 8:8-12 8 Бо ён дакарае іх, калі кажа: [а ] «Вось, надыходзяць дні, кажа Гасподзь, калі я ўстанаўлю новы запавет з домам Ізраіля і з домам Юды, 9 не такі запавет, які Я заключыў з бацькамі іхнімі у той дзень, калі Я ўзяў іх за руку, каб вывесьці зь зямлі Егіпецкай. Бо яны не засталіся ў запавеце Майм, і таму Я не паклапаціўся пра іх, кажа Гасподзь. 10Бо вось запавет, які Я заключу з домам Ізраілевым пасля тых дзён, кажа Гасподзь: Укладу ў іхнія законы свае, і запішыце іх у іх сэрцах, і буду іх Богам, і яны будуць маім народам. 11І ня будуць вучыць кожны свайго блізкага і кожны брата свайго, кажучы: «Пазнай Пана» бо яны ўсе пазнаюць мяне , ад найменшага з іх да найбольшага. 12 Бо Я буду міласэрны да беззаконьняў іхніх, і я больш не буду памятаць іх грахі».

Але вось запавет, які Я заключу з домам Ізраілевым пасля тых дзён, кажа Гасподзь,«Закон Мой пакладу ў іх і ў сэрца іхняе, напішу яго, і буду ім Богам, і яны будуць Маімі людзей The new covenant is a significant concept in the Bible, primarily prophesied in the Old Testament and believed by Christians to be established by Jesus Christ in the New Testament. The most well-known prophecy of this covenant is in the book of Jeremiah 31:31-34, which states: "Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.” Key aspects of this new covenant, as described in Jeremiah, include: * Internalization of the Law: U nlike the Mosaic Covenant, which was written on tablets of stone, the new covenant involves God placing His law directly "in their minds" and "on their hearts." This signifies an inward, heartfelt desire to obey God, rather than a forced, external set of rules. * Forgiveness of Sins: A central promise of the new covenant is the complete forgiveness of sins, with God vowing to "remember their sin no more." * A Personal Relationship with God: The prophecy indicates a time when everyone, from the least to the greatest, will "know the Lord," implying a deep and personal relationship with God that doesn't require an intermediary to teach them. In Christianity, the New Testament explains that Jesus' death and resurrection fulfilled this prophecy, establishing the new covenant through his blood (Luke 22:20). This covenant is seen as a fulfillment of God's promises to Israel, but also as something that extends to all who believe, both Jewish and Gentile. I’m The New Testament explains that Christians—both Jewish and Gentile (non-Jewish) believers—are included in the new covenant. This is a central theme in several New Testament books, especially those written by the Apostle Paul. Here are some key passages that explain this: 1. Ephesians 2:11-22 This passage is one of the clearest and most direct explanations. Paul tells the Gentile Christians in Ephesus to remember their past state: > "Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called 'uncircumcised' by those who call themselves 'the circumcision' (which is done in the body by human hands)—remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world." (Ephesians 2:11-12) > He then explains that through Jesus's sacrifice, this has all changed: > "But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility... His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross..." (Ephesians 2:13-16) > This passage shows that Gentiles, who were once "foreigners to the covenants," are now "fellow citizens with God's people and also members of his household" (Ephesians 2:19), all because of their unity with Christ. 2. Romans 11 In Romans, Paul uses the analogy of an olive tree to explain how Gentile believers are included in God's covenant promises. The olive tree represents God's people, with the root being the patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) and the natural branches being the Israelites. > "If some of the natural branches have been broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches." (Romans 11:17-18) > He explains that because some of the natural Jewish branches were "hardened" and rejected Christ, Gentile believers have been grafted in. This doesn't mean the Gentiles have replaced Israel, but that they have been brought into the same covenant blessings through faith. 3. Galatians 3:26-29 Paul teaches that faith in Christ is the key to becoming a part of God's people. > "So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise." > This passage emphasizes that ethnic or social distinctions are no longer a barrier to being included in God's family. By belonging to Christ, both Jews and Gentiles become "Abraham's seed" and inherit the promises of the covenant.

Christ didn't come to bring peace but a sword The Real Jesus Not Peace, but a Sword 34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. Matthew 10:34-36 Watchman’s Message In the message in Hosea, Yehovah is saying my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. He is warning us that it is our responsibility to give them warning from Him, about the coming wrath that is coming on this earth. Our Father repeated these few verses, He wants us to understand that He is serious, and will hold us accountable if we don't warn them (“son of man" denotes mankind generally) Hebrew people, This passage from Ephesians 4:25 urges believers to reject falsehood, lies, and deceit in favor of speaking the truth to their neighbors. The core reasoning is that Christians are interconnected members of one body—the body of Christ—making lying to one another equivalent to harming oneself. Sheep among Wolves …20 For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death. 22 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.… Matthew 10:20-22 “I’ve come to start a fire on this earth—how I wish it were blazing right now! I’ve come to change everything, turn everything right side up—how I long for it to be finished! Do you think I came to smooth things over and make everything nice? Not so. I’ve come to disrupt and confront! From now on, when you find five in a house, it will be— Three against two, and two against three; Father against son, and son against father; Mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; Mother-in-law against bride, and bride against mother-in-law.” Luke 12:49 Therefore, rejecting all falsehood [whether lying, defrauding, telling half-truths, spreading rumors, any such as these], SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE WITH HIS NEIGHBOR , for we are all parts of one another [and we are all parts of the body of Christ]. New Life in Christ Ephesians 4:25 24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another. 26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger, BE ANGRY [at sin--at immorality, at injustice, at ungodly behavior], YET DO NOT SIN; do not let your anger [cause you shame, nor allow it to] last until the sun goes down. 27 And do not give the devil an opportunity [to lead you into sin by holding a grudge, or nurturing anger, or harboring resentment, or cultivating bitterness]. 28 The thief [who has become a believer] must no longer steal, but instead he must work hard [making an honest living], producing that which is good with his own hands, so that he will have something to share with those in need. 29 Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak]. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God [but seek to please Him], by whom you were sealed and marked [branded as God’s own] for the day of redemption [the final deliverance from the consequences of sin]. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor [perpetual animosity, resentment, strife, fault-finding] and slander be put away from you, along with every kind of malice [all spitefulness, verbal abuse, malevolence]. 32 Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding] , forgiving one another [readily and freely], just as God in Christ also forgave [c] you. I Never Knew You 21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Matthew 7:21-23 Narrow gate 13 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction , and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Matthew 7:13-14 Many are called but few are chosen

The good news is that Yehovah ordained Yeshua to announce the coming of His kingdom here on earth. Many would be shocked to find out that the Bible defines the gospel differently than what they have always been told. A thorough reading shows He brought and that the apostles continued to preach. The True Gospel e The spiritual path begins with a direct call from Yeshua: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. ” This imperative is the doorway to salvation—a foundational, inward shift away from sin and a fallen world, and a redirection of the heart toward the sovereign authority of God. Matthew 4:17 — “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, ‘Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.’” Mark 1:15 — “And saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.’” 2. The Doorway: Water Baptism and the Holy Spiri t Following the resurrection and ascension of Yeshua, Peter declared the active steps of covenant entry at Pentecost: turning in repentance, being buried with Messiah in baptism, and receiving divine empowerment through the Spirit. Acts 2:38 — “Then Peter said unto them, ‘Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.’” John 3:5 — “Jesus answered, ‘Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.’” 3. The Blood: Grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel By the blood shed on the tree, the dividing wall of hostility was torn down. Nations once alienated from the promises and covenants are brought near and grafted as wild olive branches into the root of Israel. Ephesians 2:12–13 — “That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Yesgua messiah ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” Romans 11:17 — “A nd if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree.” 4. The Commission: Gathering Others into the Harvest Salvation is not walked in isolation; a grafted branch bears fruit. Believers are commanded to act as fishers of men and ambassadors, working to gather the lost into the Father’s house before the end. Matthew 28:19–20 — “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.” Matthew 9:37–38 — “Then saith he unto his disciples, ‘The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.’” Luke 14:23 — “And the lord said unto the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.’” 5. The Perseverance: Holding Fast Until the End The culmination of salvation requires endurance through trials, testing, and persecution. The promise of the eternal crown belongs to those who do not turn back. Matthew 24:13 — “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Hebrews 10:35–36 — “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.” Revelation 2:25–26 — “But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations.” Сапраўднае Евангелле Нідзе ў Пісанні Іешуа не кажа, што Евангелле кажа пра тое, што Ён прыйдзе памерці за нашы грахі. Што прапаведаваў Іешуа? Многія былі б у шоку, даведаўшыся, што Біблія вызначае Евангелле інакш, чым тое, што ім заўсёды казалі. Уважлівае прачытанне паказвае, што прыняцце крыві Хрыста ў аплату нашых грахоў — як бы гэта ні было фундаментальна важна — насамрэч не з'яўляецца цэнтрам «добрай навіны», якую Ён прынёс і якую апосталы працягвалі прапаведаваць. У дадатак да смерці за нашы грахі, Іешуа прыйшоў на зямлю як пасланнік Іеговы Айца: Добрай навіной з'яўляецца тое, што Іегова прызначыў Іешуа аб'явіць аб прыходзе Яго Валадарства тут, на зямлі. Іаана 8:38 Я кажу пра тое, што бачыў у Айца Майго, а вы робіце тое, што чулі ад бацькі свайго». Ян 12:49-50 Бо Я не ад Сябе гаварыў, але Айцец, Які Мяне паслаў, Сам даў Мне наказ, што казаць і што казаць. 50 І ведаю, што запаведзь Ягоная - жыццё вечнае. Таму тое, што Я кажу, кажу так, як сказаў Мне Айцец». Іаана 14:24 Хто не любіць Мяне, не захоўвае слова Маё. І слова, якое вы чуеце, не Маё, але Айцоў, якія паслалі Мяне. Лукі 4:43 Іешуа сказаў ім: «Я павінен прапаведаваць Валадарства Госпада і ў іншыя гарады, бо дзеля гэтага я пасланы». Нягледзячы на тое, што Іешуа быў катэгарычна самым важным чалавекам, які калі-небудзь хадзіў па гэтай зямлі, Біблія ясна паказвае, што Евангелле, прынесенае Іешуа, было не толькі пра Яго самога. Прачытайце Яго заявы і дакажыце гэта самі: Мацвея 9:35 Іешуа хадзіў па ўсіх гарадах і вёсках, навучаючы ў іх сінагогах, абвяшчаючы Евангелле Валадарства і вылечваючы ўсялякую хваробу і немач. 36 Убачыўшы натоўпы, Ён злітаваўся над імі, бо яны былі знясіленыя і бездапаможныя, як авечкі без пастыра... Марка 1:14-15 Пасля таго, як Ян быў пасаджаны ў вязніцу, Іешуа прыйшоў у Галілею, прапаведуючы Евангелле аб Валадарстве Божым і кажучы: "Споўніўся час, і наблізілася Валадарства Божае. Пакайцеся і верце ў Евангелле". 43 ЛУКАША 8:1 І сталася пасля таго, што Іешуа хадзіў па кожным горадзе і вёсцы, прапаведуючы і абвяшчаючы [Евангелле] Царства Божага. Лк 16:16 Закон і прарокі былі да Яна. З таго часу абвяшчаецца Валадарства Божае, і ўсе імкнуцца да яго. Мацьвея 24:14 І лягчэй неба і зямля прамінуць, чым адна рыса ў законе. І гэтае Евангелле Валадарства будзе абвешчана па ўсім свеце на сведчанне ўсім народам, і тады прыйдзе канец. Абвяшчэнне «добрай навіны» — самай лепшай навіны, якую можна пачуць сёння, — якую Айцец даў праз Іешуа, датычылася ўсталявання Яго Валадарства на зямлі. Што такое каралеўства? Па сутнасці, гэта нацыя з усімі яе грамадзянамі, зямлёй і законамі, якой кіруе ўрад. Ва ўжытку Бібліі каралеўства таксама можа азначаць сям'ю з аднаго бацькі, якая вырасла ў нацыю. Каралеўства складаецца з чатырох асноўных элементаў: кароль, вярхоўны кіраўнік або кіруючы агент; тэрыторыя з яе пэўным месцазнаходжаннем і пэўнымі межамі; падданыя або грамадзяне ў межах гэтай тэрытарыяльнай юрысдыкцыі; і законы і форма праўлення, праз якія ажыццяўляецца воля кіраўніка. Калі мы ігнаруем любы з гэтых істотных элементаў — калі мы ігнаруем пасланне, якое Іешуа прынёс ад Айца — у нас будзе скажоная вера, якая не прынясе збаўлення. Хто стане каралём? Не можа быць ніякіх сумневаў, што Каралём Божага Валадарства будзе Іешуа. Нягледзячы на тое, што падчас знаходжання на зямлі Ён не карыстаўся ніякай грамадзянскай уладай, калі Ён вернецца, Ён будзе «Каралём цароў і Панам уладароў» 1 Цімафею 6:15; Адкрыцьцё 19:16; 17:14). Іншыя прарокі таксама прадказвалі прыход цара не толькі Ізраіля і Юды, але і распаўсюджвання на ўвесь свет. Ісая кажа нам: Бо Дзіця нарадзілася нам, Сын дадзены нам; і ўрад будзе на плячы Ягоным. І дадуць імя Яму: Цудоўны, Дарадца, Бог магутны, Айцец вечнасці, Князь міру. Павелічэнню Яго ўрада і міру не будзе канца на троне Давіда і над Яго царствам, каб упарадкаваць яго і ўсталяваць яго з судом і справядлівасцю з тых часоў і назаўсёды. Руплівасць Госпада Саваофа зробіць гэта. (Ісая 9:6-7) Дзе будзе заснавана Каралеўства? Дамінуючая ілжывасць, якую сатана навязаў чалавецтву, - гэта вера ў тое, што душа чалавека пасля смерці трапляе на неба. Многія людзі мяркуюць, што фраза Царства Божае з'яўляецца сінонімам неба, але Біблія вучыць, што калі Іешуа вернецца, Царства Божае будзе ўстаноўлена на зямлі! Па-першае, звярніце ўвагу на тое, што Біблія цалкам абвяргае паняцце «трапіць на неба» пасля смерці. Пётр кажа натоўпу ў дзень Пяцідзесятніцы: «Мужы і браты, дазвольце мне сказаць вам пра патрыярха Давіда, што ён і памёр, і пахаваны, і магіла яго ў нас да гэтага дня. .. Бо Давід не ўзышоў на неба" (Дз 2, 29, 34). Гэты "чалавек па сэрцы Божым" не ў небе, але яшчэ ў магіле! Наш Збаўца пацвярджае гэта ў Іаана 3:13: «Ніхто не ўзышоў на неба, акрамя таго, хто сышоў з неба, гэта значыць Сына Чалавечага, які ў небе». Эклезіяст 9:5,10 Мёртвыя святыя як Старога, так і Новага Запаветаў спяць у сваіх магілах, чакаючы ўваскрасення - без прытомнасці. Ёў 14:14-15 Ёў апісвае чаканне ўваскрасення наступным чынам: "Калі чалавек памрэ, ці будзе ён зноў жыць? Усе дні маёй цяжкай службы я буду чакаць, пакуль не прыйдзе мая змена. Ты пакліч, і я буду адказаць Вам. Адкрыцьцё 5:10, «І Ты стварыў іх царствам (царскай расай) і сьвятарамі Богу нашаму, і яны будуць валадарыць на зямлі!» Адкрыцьцё 11:15 Тады сёмы анёл затрубіў: і пачуліся ў небе моцныя галасы, якія казалі: «Валадарствы гэтага свету сталі валадарствамі нашага Іеговы і Яго Сына, і Ён будзе валадарыць на векі вечныя!» Адкрыцьцё 21:21. І ўбачыў я новае неба і новую зямлю, бо першае неба і першая зямля мінулі. І мора ўжо не было. Тады я, Ян, убачыў святы горад, Новы Ерусалім, які сыходзіў з неба ад Бога, падрыхтаваны як нявеста, упрыгожаная для мужа свайго. І пачуў я гучны голас з неба, які казаў: "Вось, скінія Божая з людзьмі, і Ён будзе жыць з імі, і яны будуць Яго народам. Сам Бог будзе з імі і будзе іх Богам. І Бог сатрэ прэч усялякую сьлязу з вачэй іхніх, ня будзе ўжо сьмерці, ні смутку, ні плачу, ня будзе больш болю, бо ранейшае мінула. … Адкрыцьцё 21:1 Той, хто пераможа, атрымае ў спадчыну ўсё, і Я буду яму Богам, і ён будзе Маім сынам". Хто такія падданыя і грамадзяне Каралеўства? Нягледзячы на тое, што ўсім светам будзе кіраваць Іешуа, калі Ён усталюе Каралеўства на Зямля, не кожны на зямлі будзе грамадзянінам гэтага Каралеўства.Кожны будзе падпарадкоўвацца Цару цароў, але не кожны ўвойдзе ў тое духоўнае Каралеўства. Ян 3:3 Іешуа адкрыў гэтую праўду Нікадэму. Калі Нікадэм прыйшоў да Яго ўначы, Іешуа сказаў яму: «Сапраўды, сапраўды кажу табе: калі хто не народзіцца звыш, не можа ўбачыць Валадарства Божага». 1 Карынфянаў 15:50. Павел сказаў Карынфянам: «плоць і кроў [смяротныя людзі] не могуць успадкаваць Валадарства Божага; ні тленне не ўспадкуе нятленнасці». Хоць мы маем фізічнае цела з плоці і крыві, мы можам быць спадкаемцамі Валадарства, але не можам увайсці цалкам у Валадарства, і мы не можам убачыць яго, пакуль не станем духам — не атрымаем слаўнае духоўнае цела ва ўваскрасенні. Гэта азначае, што, нягледзячы на тое, што ўсё чалавецтва будзе падпарадкоўвацца Царству, якім Іешуа будзе кіраваць на зямлі, яны не абавязкова будуць яго часткай. Мацвея 25:31-34 Калі прыйдзе Сын Чалавечы ў славе Сваёй і ўсе святыя анёлы з Ім, тады Ён сядзе на троне славы Сваёй. Усе народы збяруцца перад Ім, і Ён аддзеліць іх адных ад другіх, як пастух аддзяляе авечак ад казлоў. І паставіць авечак па правую руку ад сябе, а казлоў па левую. Тады скажа Валадар тым, што праваруч ад Яго: «Прыйдзіце, дабраславёныя Айца Майго, прыміце ў спадчыну Валадарства, падрыхтаванае вам ад стварэння свету». Такім чынам, Царствам Божым будзе кіраваць Іешуа, і яго ўспадкуюць тыя, хто быў праслаўлены пасля ўваскрэсення з мёртвых. Уваскрослыя святыя — грамадзяне Божага Валадарства — будуць кіраваць разам з Іешуа над астатнімі народамі зямлі (Данііл 7:27; 2 Цімафею 2:12; Адкрыцьцё 2:26-28; 5:9-10; 20:4-6; 22:5). Якія законы каралеўства? Суддзяў 21:25. Закон - гэта проста кіраўніцтва, якому людзі павінны прытрымлівацца, каб забяспечыць згуртаванасць, згоду і мір у грамадзянскіх і міжасобасных адносінах. Без зразумелых стандартаў, якія забяспечваюцца суверэнным кіраўніком, кожны дзейнічаў бы згодна з уласным капрызам ці жаданнем, і нічога добрага і вартага не атрымаецца. Валадарства Божае нічым не адрозніваецца. 1 Карынфянаў 14:33 Бог не з'яўляецца аўтарам блытаніны. Яго Валадарства будзе мірным і ўпарадкаваным, таму што кожны, хто ўвойдзе ў яго, добраахвотна падпарадкуецца закону - запаведзям - Божаму. Бог не будзе мець нікога ў сваім Валадарстве, хто дэманструе сваім жыццём, што не будзе слухацца Яго. (Мацьвея 7:21-23; Габрэяў 10:26-31). Адкрыцьцё 12:17 апісвае сьвятых як тых, «хто захоўвае запаведзі Божыя і мае сьведчаньне Іешуа. Гэтыя два выказванні - любіць Бога і любіць бліжняга свайго, як самога сябе - заключаюць у сабе першыя чатыры і апошнія шэсць запаведзяў адпаведна. Запаведзі толькі далей вызначаюць, як любіць Бога і любіць чалавека. Мы любім Бога ў цэлым, ставячы Яго на першае месца, не прымяняючы фізічных дапаможнікаў у пакланенні Яму, не называючы Яго імя дарэмна і захоўваючы святы сёмы дзень суботы. Мы любім чалавека ўвогуле тым, што шануем бацькоў, не забіваем, не чужаложам, не крадзем, не хлусім і не жадаем. Іаана 14:15 "Калі любіце Мяне, захоўвайце запаведзі Мае. Хто мае запаведзі Мае і захоўвае іх, той любіць Мяне. А хто любіць Мяне, таго палюбіць Айцец Мой, і Я палюблю яго і выяўлю Я яму». "Калі хто любіць Мяне, той захавае слова Маё; і Айцец Мой палюбіць яго, і Мы прыйдзем да яго і зробім у ім жыллё. Хто не любіць Мяне, той не захоўвае слоў Маіх і слова, якое вы чуеце не Мой, але Айцоў, якія паслалі Мяне». The Gospel (in Hebrew, the Besorah—"good news") that Yeshua (Jesus) personally preached is summarized in Mark 1:14–15: "Now after John was put in prison, Yeshua 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.'" While modern ears often hear "the gospel" defined exclusively as the mechanics of individual salvation (how to go to heaven when you die), Yeshua’s proclamation was broader, deeper, and grounded in the Hebrew Scriptures: the Gospel of the Kingdom of God (Besorat HaMalkhut). He announced that the sovereign rule, authority, and covenant reign of the Creator had broken directly into this fallen world through the King Himself. 1. "The Time is Fulfilled" (Prophetic Arrival) When Yeshua said the time was fulfilled, He was speaking to a nation longing for deliverance. The prophecies of Daniel (the timeline of Daniel 9 and the stone that crushes the kingdoms of the world in Daniel 2) and Isaiah were reaching their climax. In Luke 4:18–19, He opened the scroll of Isaiah 61 in the Nazareth synagogue to define His mandate: Preaching good tidings to the poor and humble. Healing the brokenhearted. Proclaiming liberty to the captives and the opening of prison to those who are bound. Proclaiming the acceptable year of the Lord (the ultimate Jubilee release from sin and debt). 2. "The Kingdom of God is at Hand" (The Core Proclamation) Yeshua did not preach an abstract philosophy; He preached an active government and reign: Sovereignty over the Kingdom of Darkness: Every time Yeshua cast out a demon, healed incurable diseases, or raised the dead, He was demonstrating that Satan’s usurpation of the earth was being overthrown. "If I cast out demons by the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you" (Luke 11:20). The Nature of the King’s Reign: His kingdom was not of this worldly system—it did not advance through political intrigue, violence, or human armies (John 18:36). Instead, it advanced through truth, sacrificial love, humility, and righteousness. Present and Future: The Kingdom is already here in the hearts and walk of those who submit to the King, and it is yet to come in its physical, global fullness when the King returns to establish His reign in Jerusalem (Zechariah 14; Revelation 11:15). 3. "Repent" (Teshuvah — A Complete Return) To enter this Kingdom, the requirement was not a passive intellectual nod, but Teshuvah—a radical turning around: Turning from Self-Rule to God's Rule: Repentance means laying down rebellion, secular autonomy, and false religious pretenses. Internalizing the Commandments: In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5–7), Yeshua explained the constitution of the Kingdom. He made it clear that He did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fill them to the full (Matthew 5:17). Kingdom repentance goes beyond external legalism to the motives of the heart—eradicating lust, hatred, pride, and greed. Fruit of Repentance: Just as John the Baptist warned, Yeshua taught that true repentance always bears observable, righteous fruit (Matthew 7:16–21). 4. "Believe in the Good News" (Covenant Faith & Allegiance) In the biblical mindset, "belief" (emunah) is not merely agreeing that God exists; it is active loyalty, trust, and obedience to the King: Trusting the Father’s Provision: Ceasing to worry about food, drink, and clothing like the nations do, but rather "seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you" (Matthew 6:33). Trusting the Sacrifice of the Son: Yeshua taught that He came "not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45). The Good News is that the King took the curse of our disobedience upon Himself at Passover, shedding His blood to ratify the New Covenant (Matthew 26:28). Victory Over the Grave: Yeshua promised that whoever hears His word and believes Him who sent Him has passed from death into life (John 5:24), anchored by His own resurrection as the firstfruits from the dead. 5. Summary: What Entering the Gospel Requires In Yeshua's own words, walking in the Gospel means: Denying Self: "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me" (Luke 9:23). Obeying the Father's Will: "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven" (Matthew 7:21). Loving God and Neighbor: Loving the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and loving your neighbor as yourself (Mark 12:29–31). Proclaiming the Kingdom to All Nations: "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). In short, the Gospel Yeshua taught is the royal proclamation that God’s reign has arrived in His Messiah, calling every human heart to turn away from sin, enter covenant peace with the Father through the Son, and live as an obedient citizen of His eternal Kingdom. In ancient kingdoms, when a king ascended his throne, he issued a royal charter or legal code declaring how his realm would be governed and what was expected of his subjects. In Matthew 5–7, Yeshua goes up on a mountain—echoing Moses ascending Mount Sinai—sits down in the posture of a reigning king and teacher, and delivers the manifesto of His newly inaugurated reign. The Sermon on the Mount is not an impractical, idealistic philosophy, nor is it a checklist to earn salvation. It is the living, practical constitution of the Kingdom of God, dictating the character, inner motives, ethics, and daily allegiance required of every citizen walking under Messiah's rule. 1. The Preamble: The Citizen’s Internal Disposition (The Beatitudes) Any national constitution opens with foundational values. Earthly empires prize military conquest, political clout, wealth, and self-assertion. Yeshua begins His charter (Matthew 5:3–12) by turning the world's value system completely upside down: Poor in Spirit: Recognizing total spiritual bankruptcy and utter dependence on the King. Mourning: Grieving over personal sin and the brokenness of a fallen world. Meekness: Possessing harnessed strength, patience, and humility rather than violent ambition. Hunger for Righteousness: Longing for God’s righteous order to prevail more than craving food or physical comfort. Mercy and Purity of Heart: Extending forgiveness and maintaining undivided, uncorrupted loyalty to God. Peacemaking: Actively reconciling estranged parties, reflecting the character of the Father. These are not separate groups of people receiving different rewards; together, they describe the temperament of the citizen who has laid down self-rule. 2. The Citizen’s Public Office: Salt and Light Citizens of the Kingdom do not live in isolationist enclaves; they are embedded directly into a decaying and dark culture (Matthew 5:13–16): Salt of the Earth: In antiquity, salt was a preservative that arrested rot and decay. Kingdom citizens preserve truth, hold back moral corruption, and bring spiritual flavor to the societies they inhabit. Light of the World: Light exposes danger and guides the traveler. Believers do not hide their allegiance to the King; their visible, tangible good works shine so that observers give glory directly to the Father. 3. The Legal Standard: Fulfilling and Internalizing the Law In Matthew 5:17–20, Yeshua establishes the legal framework of His government, dispelling any thought of lawlessness or anarchy: "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." To "fulfill" (pleroo) in Hebrew thought means to bring the law to its fullest intended meaning and expression, not to abolish it. Yeshua contrasts the superficial, external legalism of the religious establishment with the King’s internal standard. Through a series of six antitheses ("You have heard that it was said... but I say to you"), He shows that the King's law governs the thoughts and desires before an act is ever committed: Murder vs. Contempt: It is not enough to refrain from physical murder; harboring bitter anger, resentment, or hurling venomous insults (Raca) makes one liable to judgment (5:21–26). Adultery vs. Lust: Purity is not just refraining from physical unfaithfulness; looking with covetous intent is adultery in the heart (5:27–30). Oaths vs. Total Integrity: Citizens do not need elaborate religious oaths or legal loopholes to verify their truthfulness; their word is their bond—their "Yes" means yes, and their "No" means no (5:33–37). Retaliation vs. Sacrificial Generosity: Rather than demanding immediate vengeance ("an eye for an eye"), citizens yield personal rights, go the extra mile, and overcome evil with good (5:38–42). Love for Enemies: The ultimate test of Kingdom citizenship is reflecting the Father’s indiscriminate benevolence—praying for persecutors and blessing those who curse you (5:43–48). 4. Public Duty & Worship: Sincerity Over Religious Theater In Matthew 6, Yeshua regulates the three primary pillars of personal religious duty: giving, prayer, and fasting. In earthly systems, piety is often weaponized for social prestige. In the Kingdom, performance art is condemned: Secret Giving (Alms): Giving to the needy without sounding a trumpet or announcing tax write-offs; the left hand does not know what the right is doing. Secret Prayer: Communing behind closed doors with the Father, rather than reciting vain, repetitive words to impress bystanders. He provides the Model Prayer (the Lord's Prayer), teaching citizens to align their desires with the Father’s name, His kingdom coming, and His will being done on earth. Secret Fasting: Anointing the head and washing the face so that the physical affliction of fasting is unseen by men, directed only to the Father who sees in secret. 5. The Economic System: Trust, Not Striving Every kingdom has an economy. The economy of the world is driven by fear, scarcity, hoarding, and status anxiety. The Kingdom of God operates on radical faith in divine provision (Matthew 6:19–34): Currency: True wealth is not stored in physical barns, bank vaults, or commodities where moth and rust destroy; it is stored in heaven through generous, righteous living. Singular Focus: A servant cannot serve two masters. You cannot pledge allegiance to the Creator while serving Mammon (wealth/money). Freedom from Worry: Citizens do not sweat and panic over daily bread or clothing like the pagans do. The King feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field. The citizen's sole operational directive is: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Matthew 6:33) 6. Relational Protocol: Righteous Discernment Without Self-Righteous Condemnation In Matthew 7:1–12, Yeshua sets the rules for how citizens treat one another: The Spec and the Log: Before attempting to perform delicate eye surgery on a brother’s fault, remove the massive log of blind self-righteousness from your own eye. Holy Discernment: While judgment is warned against, discernment is commanded—do not cast pearls before swine or give what is sacred to dogs. Persistent Petitions: Keep asking, seeking, and knocking, trusting that the Father gives good gifts to His children. The Royal Rule (The Golden Rule): "Whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets." (Matthew 7:12) 7. The Ratification: Hearing vs. Doing A constitution is useless if it is merely read and debated rather than obeyed. Yeshua concludes His address with four sobering warnings demanding personal allegiance: Two Gates: The wide, crowded gate leading to destruction versus the narrow, difficult gate leading to life (7:13–14). Two Trees: True prophets and false prophets, known not by their charisma or titles, but by their actual fruit (7:15–20). Two Confessions: Warning that crying "Lord, Lord" or performing signs in His name is worthless if one practices lawlessness (anomia). Only those who do the will of the Father will enter (7:21–23). Two Foundations: The sermon ends with a dramatic builder’s test. The person who hears these words and builds on them is a wise man who digs deep and anchors his house on the solid bedrock. When the storms, floods, and winds beat against that life, it stands firm. The person who hears and does not obey builds on shifting sand—and great is the fall of it (7:24–27). When Yeshua concluded, the crowds were astonished. He did not quote human traditions or cite precedent like the scribes; He spoke as the Lawgiver and King Himself, laying down the permanent, unalterable rule of life for all who call Him Lord.
