PASTORS WAKE UP!

On my last message I spoke on the Word being as milk to the believer. Let us also read the following Scripture.

Kepha 1/1 Peter 2:2

As newborn infants, desire the unadulterated milk of the Word, in order that you grow by it.

Milk represents the first food a baby eats. He cannot yet eat meat or other food for a few months. New believers must start with the basics of the teachings of the Torah, and of course the completion of the teachings of the work of Yehoshua dying on the Cross to save us from our sins.

Yehoshua came to fulfill the Torah, and not to destroy, therefore His Word is our guideline.

Mattithyahu/Matthew 5:17-18  

“Do not think I came to destroy the Torah or the Nevi’im. I did not come to destroy but to complete. 18 For truly, I say to you, till the shamayim and the earth pass away, one yod or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.”

He validates all the Torah declaring it will not pass away until the Heaven and earth passes away. Heaven and earth is still here, therefore we must obey all His Word.  If by chance you have been taught that you do not have to keep the commandments, you are falsely taught. You not only need to  obey the rules of the King of Kings, but also you need to be born again and washed in the blood of the Mashiach. But today I simply want to talk of the false teaching claiming that the apostle Sha'ul/Paul has taught that the Torah is done away! I need to warn you, that if you, pastor, are teaching this error, you are in danger of loosing your soul, for you are denying the Word of Yehovah! Please do not misinterpret the Scriptures. The Apostle Paul observed all the Scriptures, and so are you required to do.

Shaul declares:

Timotiyos 2/2 Timothy 3:16

All Scripture is breathed by Elohim and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for straightening, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of Elohim might be fitted, equipped for every good work.

Please note these are the words of the apostle Paul, and this verse and all his letters were only letters, and the New Testament was not included in the same book as the Tanakh that he is speaking about. He was talking of the Tanakh which ends in most Bibles with Mal’aki/Malachi or  Divrey Ha’Yamim 2/2 Chronicles, if you use the same Bible I am using now.

Paul  came to Yerushalayim and is falsely accused of not teaching Torah.

Ma’aseh/Acts 21: 21-24

“And they have been informed about you that you teach all the Yahudim who are among the gentiles to forsake Mosheh, saying not to circumcise the children nor to walk according to the practices.

22 What then is it? They shall certainly hear that you have come.

23 So do this, what we say to you: We have four men who have taken a vow.

24 “Take them and be cleansed with them and pay their expenses so that they shave their heads. And all shall know that what they have been informed about you is not so, but that you yourself also walk orderly, keeping the Torah.

The leaders in Yerushalayim wanted to help Paul by having him paying the money for those guys who had taken the Nazirite vow, which involved sacrifices. Now we know we no longer need sacrifices because Yehoshua fulfilled that requirement when He did on the cross. However, it seems that the apostles still kept the complete Torah. This, in their eyes, would proof that Paul was a Torah keeper, which of course He was, but was misunderstood big time!

He was also accused of bringing non Jews into the Temple, but they had no proof. Read the verses Ma’aseh/Acts 24:1-10

Shaul/Paus speaks in his defense.

Ma’aseh/Acts 24:12 -15

“And they neither found me in the Miqdash disputing with anyone nor stirring up the crowd, either in the congregations or in the city. 13 Nor are they able to prove the charges of which they now accuse me. And this I confess to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect, so I worship the Elohim of my fathers, believing all that has been written in the Torah and in the Nevi’im…”

Ma’aseh/Acts 25:8

While said in his own defence, “Nether against the Torah of the Yahudim, nor against the Miqdash, nor against Kaiser did I commit any sin.”

Paul kept always the Torah! He never preached anything else or he would have been a false prophet and his writing  would not have been placed in the Renewed Testament! Please do not teach falsely! You are going to give an account of yourself to Yehovah very soon if you continue to do so. Falsely accusing is sin.

Paul continued to speak in the book of Romans.  

Romiyim/Romans 7:22

“For I delight in the Torah of Yehovah according to the inward mind.”

The apostle Kepha speaks about this issue. From the beginning Paul found opposition, but this is not new, for all the prophets are rejected, and they tried to reject him by falsely accusing him.  

Kepha 2/2 Peter 3:14-16

So then, beloved ones, looking forward to this, do your utmost to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, 15 and reckon the patience of our Adon as deliverance, as also our beloved brother Sha’ul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him, as also in all letters, speaking in them concerning these, in which some are hard to understand, which those who are untaught and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they also do also the other Scriptures.

All the letters cannot teach anything against the Torah, which this is what Sha’ul taught continually. But I believe some letters were not copied correctly, and that caused misunderstandings. This is in some proven cases in the book of Yochanan. But today I want to end with the next book.

Qolasim/Colossians 2:13-14

And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, 14 having blotted out the handwriting against us-by the dogmas-which stood against us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed to the stake.

What we must know is that Yehoshua became sin for us. that is that He took the penalty of my and your sin upon Himself, and He died for you, instead of you dying for your sin, which would not save you. Paul is not talking of the Torah as many teach. Those who teach this are the ones who refuse to submit to Yehovah and His Kingdom rules.

I hope, pastor, you are not one of them, but if you are, you will do best to retire or publicly repent, for you are endangering the flock of Yehovah to go to hell. I am sure this is not your plan. Read the complete Word of Yehovah and do not try to draw your own false teachings from one misunderstood verse of Scriptures destroying the sheep of Yehovah. Yehoshua died for our sins, but He did not destroy the Torah as we read in the beginning of this message. He removed the death penalty for He died for us instead of us dying for our sins and go to hell!  Be careful, pastor.

Qorin’tiyim 2/2 Corinthians 5:21

For He made Him who knew no sin, to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of Elohim. 

If you are indeed teaching falsely saying the Torah is no longer needed, you are a false prophet, and need to retire. 

 

DRINK THE MILK

 

Qorin’tiyim 1/1Corinthians 2:11-16

For who among men knows that of a man except the spirit of the man that is in him? So also, that of Elohim no one has known, except the Ruach of Elohim.

12 And we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Ruach that is from Elohim, in order to know what Elohim has favourably given us,  

13 which we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Ruach Ha’Qodesh teaches, comparing spiritual with spiritual.

14 But the natural man does not receive that of the Ruach of Elohim, for they are foolishness to him, and he is unable to know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual discerns indeed all, but he himself is discerned by no one. For “Who has known the mind of Yehovah? Who shall instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Mashiach (Messiah).

Luqas/Luke 14:26

“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers and sisters, and his own life too, he is unable to be My talmid (disciple).

The above verses need to be explained. I personally heard a person saying that she had to hate her mother-in-law, because the Bible says so. Obviously, she is in deep error. Yehovah and Yehoshua taught us to love our neighbor as ourselves, and not to hate.

The word hate could be one word that was not easy to translate from the Hebrew and the translators simply called it hate. But it does not mean literally to hate, it is a figure of speech indicating that we must love Yehovah with all our hearts first, almost to say the other affections are like hate compared to it. But Yehoshua never taught against His own Word, for He is the Word made flesh.

See Yochanan/John 1:1,2,4

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was Elohim, 2 He was in the beginning with Elohim. 4 In Him was Chai, (Life), and the Chai was the light of men.

Yehovah must be first, and He must receive our complete love all the time.

Shemot/Exodus 20 :1-3 And Elohim spoke all these Words saying, “I am Yehovah your Elohim, who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim (Egypt), out of the house of slavery. You have no other gods against Me.”

Yehovah must to be first in our lives, for He is our Creator, and we belong to Him.

Devarim/Deuteronomy 6:4-5

“Hear, O Yisrael: Yehovah your Elohim, Yehovah is one!  And you shall love Yehovah your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your might.”

Wayyiqra/Leviticus 19:18

“Do not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the children of your people.  And you shall love your neighbour as yourself. I am Yehovah.

Yehoshua did not give a new commandment but quoted the Torah.

Mattithyahu/Matthew 22:36,37-38

“Teacher, which is the great Command in the Torah?” And Yehoshua said to him, ’You shall love Yehovah your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all your mind.

38 This is the first and great Command, and the second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’ ‘On these two Commands hang all the Torah and the Nevi’im.”

At this point it is vital I also mention the following verses:

Mattithyahu/Matthew 5:17-18

“Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah (Law, instructions) or the Nevi’im (Prophets). I did not come to destroy but to complete. 18 For truly, I say to you, till the shamayim (Heaven) and the earth pass away, one yod or one title shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.”

It is very important that we must compare Scripture with Scripture. I am very upset when they slander a person who keeps the commandments. What did Yehoshua said to the man who came to Him wanted to know what else to do to enter the Kingdom? He had obeyed all the commandments. Yehoshua did not say he did not need to obey them! But He saw his heart. He was rich and could not give up all his riches and follow Yehoshua. The commandments are the rules of our King if we want to live in His kingdom. We must obey them, for by obeying them we are loving Him with all our hearts and obeying our neighbour as ourselves. But because we are sinners, our sin brought forth death in our lives. We actually earned the death penalty witch leads to hell, far away from our Savior, Yehoshua. You know all about it, but you can read Yechezqel/Ezekiel 18:4; Romans 3:23; 6:23.

We need the Blood of Yehoshua to cleanse us.

We need to be born again by His Spirit, and that cannot happen until we repent of our sins to Yehovah and are born again of His Spirit. (See Yochanan 3:3-8) and we become His children when we receive Him, Yehoshua who die in our place and to give us life.

Yochanan/John1:12

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the authority to become children of Elohim, to those believing in his Name.

 Qorin’tiyim 1/1 Corinthians 3:1-3

And I, brothers, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual ones but as to fleshly, as to children in Mashiach (Messiah).

2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food, for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able, 

3 for you are still fleshly. For since there is envy, and strife, and divisions among you, are you not fleshly and walking according to man?

To be fleshly means not in lead by the Spirit of Yehovah, but by self. You cannot take the above verse literally. The Apostle Shaul/Paul did not buy milk and fed them with it!

Let us also read the following verses.

Ivrim/Hebrews 5:12-14

For indeed, although by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first elements of the Words of Yehovah. And you have become such as need milk and not solid food.

13 For everyone partaking of milk is inexperienced in the Word of righteousness, for he is a child.

14 For everyone partaking of milk is inexperienced in the Word of righteousness, for he is a child.

I picture our Father in Heaven feeding us His Milk. But this does not mean He is a mother who is nursing us from her breast. It is a picture letting us know we are still babies who need to learn the elementary teaching about Him and His Word. He Word is to us like milk that gives us life. If we starve a baby, that baby dies. Many newborn again believers are spiritually dying for lack of Milk that their pastors have not provided for them. Pastors, you are a shepherd under the Great Shepherd, you must teach your sheep. If it is too difficult for you to teach them, please leave the pulpit. But I am sure you will be obeying the Great Shepherd and teach and love your sheep.

 

Note: Spirit of Elohim = Spirit of God in English

Ruach Ha’Qodesh  = Holy Spirit

Yehoshua is the only Ben/Son of Yehovah, our Creator, whom the translators call simply “the LORD.” to their shame. They hide the correct name of our Father in Heaven.

Yehoshua means Yehovah Saves, while the invented name Jesus means nothing. In Yehoshua was born to a Hebrew family in Israel, and the angel when He came to Miryam gave Him the name Yehovah because He would save us from our sins.  (Luqas/Luke1:30-35)

It is time to speak truth.

Talmid = disciple

All Scriptures are from Halleluyah Scriptures.
