Greetings:
“Podcast XXXXIII: The Revealing of the Hidden Ones” is now posted and ready to be heard, under “Audio Teachings” on comeenterthemikvah.com.
The foundation article for this podcast, “The Revealing of the Hidden Ones,” is #65 under the Mikvah of the Heart of Elohim” or Recent Articles.
Please keep the article close at hand as you listen to the podcast. Be sure to look up the Scriptures and read them in context. By doing that you will learn what Elohim is doing in the earth today, and learn your part in it.
If you have not heard the previous Podcast #XXXXII, it would be good to listen to, or listen to it a second time. Though this podcast can stand alone, it is a sequel in some ways to the previous podcast and article on Billy Graham’s passing and the sign it gives us.
Please share these podcasts with others. The Spirit of Yahuwah is speaking His will to us, and we must take it extremely serious and act on what He says. The book of Acts is our primer for learning basics of our servant-life. The lifestyle of believers in Acts is our lifestyle, no matter if we live in a ntile/pagan/heathen culture such as all Westerners do.
Answering questions on living and sharing the Torah: Some have asked questions so here are some answers.
All of the 1st century Apostles/elders, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers and disciples/taught ones/believers, as with the Master Yahushua, guarded the Torah of Yahuwah. The early believers all received the transforming true new birth, and all received the baptism into the Spirit of Yahuwah with the evidence of speaking in tongues. There were no denominations or churches to tell them it all passed away. “I am Yahuwah. I change not!” These things never went away! Because of the infilling of the Spirit of Yahuwah, they guarded the Torah from His heart, His mind, His ways, and with His nature. Relationship with Yahuwah is restored in the true new birth, so that we can receive His Spirit within us. Thus, the early believers lived the Word way beyond religious duty that so often carries the spirits of religious pride and self-righteousness.
We must be filled with the Spirit of Yahuwah in order to have any anointing of His Presence, any fruit, any gifts, any revelation, any power, any authority, any change in our lives, or any understanding of the Word as a whole. How can we be transformed into Elohim’s image and likeness with the fruit of Their nature, as in Galatians 5:21-23, without the Spirit? Impossible! Carefully read John 14-17. Note: Never skim or scan the Word. It is to your own destruction to do that.
Our eternal destiny is at stake! Our eternal life is not based on a belief system, or on religious observance, or on moral performance, by following man’s doctrines or having membership in a church or congregation. For the true new birth requires a total life commitment to a new Master – the one who bought us with His own blood, the One who takes us out of the kingdom of darkness and transfers us into the Kingdom of Light, in which no darkness can exist. Yahuwah’s nature can only manifest through us as we submit ourselves like a little child to His Spirit! Our true new birth comes first, then the Spirit teaches us how to guard His teachings (Torah) of the Kingdom.
The requirements for eternal life begin with atonement, only possible by the blood of a perfect Lamb (Leviticus 17:11; Hebrews 9:22), who is also our High Priest. The reward of eternal life is only possible because of the resurrection of this perfect Lamb/High Priest. The heavenly choirs sing: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and respect, and esteem and blessing!” This is echoed in Philippians 2:6-11 and Daniel 7:9-18, 21-22 and 26-27. It is echoed in Psalm 2 and 110. It is the major theme of the entire Word.
Use the above admonition to share the truth with others. Use my mini-book “Putting Torah in Its Proper Place” (Mikvah of the Covenant/also available on Amazon Kindle) to help Christians understand that Torah has nothing to do with “the law of the Jews” and everything to do with Messiah. Use the article: “Yahuwah’s Seven Appointments with Man” to lay a foundation for Messiah in the Festivals. The Festivals are the backbone of the plan of salvation, from His death and resurrection to His Kingship over all the earth.
I know some of you are ministering the Covenant of Yahuwah to Christians. But, do in with the fruit of the re-born spirit in operation! Be sure you leave all religion out of it! Most Christians know a Greek-Roman concept of God and Jesus, without understanding the real Hebrew-related Father and Son. It is by much heart rendering prayer first, then by the leading of the Spirit, that we break down the walls of misunderstanding between Christians and Messianic Torah–guarders. I teach some of this in Podcasts 1-4 on how to share the Good News and present the Torah to Christians.
Christians need to be exposed to the real Torah – not the man-made Rabbinic Judaism Torah, a religious Pharisaical Torah, but the Torah of the heart of Elohim – which reflects a Daddy’s love for His children.
It is prophesied in the Tenach that He would write His Torah on our heart. (Psalm 37:31; 40:8; Proverbs 3:1; Isaiah 51:7; Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 8:10-11) That is only possible if we have been born again, truly and Scripturally, and are filled with His Spirit.
We must never ever try to “convert” anyone. That word in modern usage means “to convert another to a belief-system of the intellect.” If a person is converted by a convincing argument, they’ll switch beliefs when the next convincing argument takes precedent. We present the Good News for transformation in a true new birth, from darkness to light. If a person truly knows the Savior and realizes what they have been saved from, they will never turn from Him!
Get involved with Yahuwah and Yahushua.
Shalom, in His love,
Yedidah
