This study is an appeal to the one that has walked away from Yah.
First of all, many are not firmly rooted in Yahuah Elohim and Yahusha Messiah. Scripture tells us this in more than one place, that many are called, but few are chosen. Let's pick one. Matthew 20:1-16.
- Matthew 20:1-16 [Yah Scriptures]
- 1 “For reign of the shamayim is like a man, a householder who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
- 2 “And when he had agreed with the workers for a silver piece a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
- 3 “And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the market-place,
- 4 and said to them, ‘You too go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I shall give you.’ And they went.
- 5 “Having gone out again about the sixth and the ninth hour, he did likewise.
- 6 “And about the eleventh hour, having gone out, he found others standing idle, and said to them, ‘Why do you stand here idle all day?’
- 7 “They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You too go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you shall receive.’
- 8 “And when evening came, the master of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.’
- 9 “And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they each received a silver piece.
- 10 “And when the first came, they thought they would receive more. But they too received each a silver piece.
- 11 “And when they received it, they grumbled against the householder,
- 12 saying, ‘These last have worked one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.’
- 13 “But he answering, said to one of them, ‘Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a silver piece?
- 14 ‘Take yours and go. But I want to give to this last man as also to you.
- 15 ‘Is it not right for me to do what I want with my own? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’
- 16 “Thus the last shall be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.”
I can't express enough how important it is for you to understand what we have just read. The deal that each individual has made with the Household Owner, well, it's binding, and You Agreed to it, or you would not have been working in the vineyard in the first place. Remember, Many are Called, but Few Are Chosen. Do you think you have the right to dictate and overrule what you have agreed to in the first place? Do you really think it is okay to bite the hand that is feeding you? Please remember what Yahusha has just told us, many are called, but few are chosen. Why do you think He said that? do you know? Do you care to know? Or do you feel you are wiser than the Master Himself? let's keep moving forward, to Matthew 13:1-23.
- Matthew 13:1-23 [Yah Scriptures]
- 1 And on that day Yahusha went out of the house and sat by the sea.
- 2 And large crowds were gathered together to Him, so that He went into a boat and sat down. And all the crowd stood on the beach.
- 3 And He spoke to them much in parables, saying, “See, the sower went out to sow.
- 4 “And as he sowed, some indeed fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured them.
- 5 “And others fell on rocky places, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.
- 6 “But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered.
- 7 “And others fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them.
- 8 “And others fell on good soil and yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
- 9 “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
- 10 And the talmidim came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?”
- 11 And He answering, said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the secrets of the reign of the shamayim, but to them it has not been given.
- 12 “For whoever possesses, to him more shall be given, and he shall have overflowingly; but whoever does not possess, even what he possesses shall be taken away from him.
- 13 “Because of this I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
- 14 “And in them the neḇuah [prophecy] of Yeshayahu [Isaiah] is completely filled, which says, ‘Hearing you shall hear and by no means understand, and seeing you shall see and by no means perceive,
- 15 for the heart of this people has become thickened, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, lest they should understand with their heart, and turn back, and I heal them.’
- 16 “And baruḵ are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear,
- 17 for truly I say to you, that many neḇi’im [prophets] and righteous ones longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
- 18 “You, then, hear the parable of the sower:
- 19 “When anyone hears the Word of the reign, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is that sown by the wayside.
- 20 “And that sown on rocky places, this is he who hears the Word and immediately receives it with joy,
- 21 yet he has no root in himself, but is short-lived, and when pressure or persecution arises because of the Word, immediately he stumbles.
- 22 “And that sown among the thorns is he who hears the Word, and the worry of this age and the deceit of riches choke the Word and it becomes fruitless.
- 23 “And that sown on the good soil is he who hears the Word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields - some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.”
Truly I tell you, he who hears the Word and understands it, bears fruit and yields Much. Let's backup to Matthew 13:14-15 for a moment.
- Matthew 13:14-15 [Yah Scriptures]
- 14 “And in them the neḇuah [prophecy] of Yeshayahu [Isaiah] is completely filled, which says, ‘Hearing you shall hear and by no means understand, and seeing you shall see and by no means perceive,
- 15 for the heart of this people has become thickened, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, lest they should understand with their heart, and turn back, and I heal them.’
Clearly our Messiah is quoting from Isaiah 6:8-10. Those that choose to See with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, will not only turn back to Yahuah, they will no longer be Broken. Their Stiff Necked Broken Hearts will be Healed. Isaiah 6:8-10.
- Isaiah [Yeshauahu] 6:8-10
- 8 And I heard the voice of Yahuah, saying, “Whom do I send, and who would go for Us?” And I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
- 9 And He said, “Go, and you shall say to this people, ‘Hearing, you hear, but do not understand; and seeing, you see, but do not know.’
- 10 “Make the heart of this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and shall turn and be healed.”
Let's get yet another witness, even within the New Testament. A witness from Sha'ul [Paul]. Acts 28:25-27.
- Acts 28:25-27
- 25 And disagreeing with one another, they began to leave, after Sha’ul had spoken one word, “The Ruaḥ ha’Qodesh [Set-Apart Spirit] rightly spoke through Yeshayahu [Isaiah] the naḇi [prophet] to our fathers,
- 26 saying, ‘Go to this people and say, “Hearing you shall hear but by no means understand, and seeing you shall see but by no means perceive,
- 27 for the heart of this people has become thickened, and with their ears they heard heavily, and they have closed their eyes, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn back, and I should heal them.” ’
But Why is Yahusha our Messiah, and Sha'ul [Paul] quoting Isaiah? Look at what they are saying. Repent and be Healed. What does that mean? Return to Yahuah Elohim through Yahusha Messiah, by Keeping the Commands set forth by Yahuah Elohim. Don't Believe me? Lets Visit John 14, and just take one quote from verse's 23 and 24.
- John 14:23-24 [Yah Scriptures]
- 23 Yahusha answered him, “If anyone loves Me, he shall guard My Word. And My Father shall love him, and We shall come to him and make Our stay with him.
- 24 “He who does not love Me does not guard My Words. And the Word which you hear is not Mine but of the Father who sent Me.
And for those that feel Paul Abolished the Torah, lets go to Romans 2:12-13, and read Exactly what Paul is telling us concerning the Torah.
- Romans 2:12-13
- 12 For as many as sinned without Torah shall also perish without Torah, and as many as sinned in the Torah shall be judged by the Torah.
- 13 For not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the Torah shall be declared right.
Now, since our high priest is not here at this time, we can not keep every single command properly. I am going to tell you something very important; those commands that do not require a priest, you can keep. As we have said a thousand times or more, Any Command You Can Keep, You Absolutely Should Keep. In addition, those commands that you cannot keep, you should absolutely Memorialize, Meet-up according to Yah's Calendar, and Teach them. Today's society has walked away from Yah. So I also say those that are Not Keeping His Commands, His Statutes, His Sabbaths, His Way. The Ruaḥ ha’Qodesh [Set-Apart Spirit] rightly spoke through Yeshayahu [Isaiah] the naḇi [prophet] to our fathers, That being: Mom, Dad, Uncle, Aunty, Grandpa and Grandma, Great Grandpa, Great Grandma, for that matter, Brother Sister, Pastor, Prophet, Evangelist, and today's Teachers, ‘Hearing, you hear, but do not understand; and seeing, you see, but do not know.’ “Make the heart of this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and shall turn and be healed.”
Please I ask, Can You Hear Me! What does the scripture say to those that fall away from the truth? Paul tells us something very important that we should not ignore, or pretend he did not say. Hebrews 6:4-6
- Hebrews 6:4-6 [Yah Scriptures]
- 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the gift of the shamayim, and have become partakers of the Ruaḥ ha’Qodesh,
- 5 and have tasted the good Word of Yahuah and the powers of the age to come,
- 6 and fall away, to renew them again to repentance - having impaled for themselves the Bĕn of Yahuah again, and put Him to open shame.
And Listen to this, the next two verses, because this is what happens to the tares.
- Hebrews 6:7-8. [Yah Scriptures]
- 7 For ground that is drinking the rain often falling on it, and is bearing plants fit for those by whom it is tilled, receives beraḵah [Blessing] from Elohim,
- 8 but if it brings forth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near to being cursed, and ends up by being burned.
What is Yah telling us here through Paul? I think you know! Now, What does Yahuah Elohim Tell Ezra will happen to those that Reject Yahuah's Commands, His Torah, His Statutes, His Law, His Sabbaths, His Festivals, and Feast Days, His Way. What does Yah Say will happen in that Final Judgement? Let's go to:
- 2 Esdars 7 [Yah Scriptures]
- 30 “And the world shall be turned into the silence of old seven days, as in the former judgments; so that no one remains.
- 31 “And after seven days, the world that is not yet awake, shall be raised up, and that which is corrupt shall die,
- 32 and the earth shall restore those who are asleep within, and the dust and the secret places shall deliver those who dwell in silence, and those beings who were given to them.
- 33 “And the Most High shall appear upon the seat of judgment, and anguish shall pass away, and patience shall come to an end.
- 34 “But only judgment shall remain, truth shall stand, and belief shall grow strong.
- 35 And the works shall follow, and the rewards be revealed, and the good deeds shall be firm, and wicked deeds shall not reign.
- 36 “The pit of torture shall appear, and opposite shall be the place of rest; and the furnace of Gĕy-Hinnom shall be uncovered and the paradise of delight opposite.
- 37 “Then the Most High shall say to the nations that have been raised from the dead, ‘See, and know whom you have denied, whom you have not served, those Commands you have despised.
- 38 ‘Look on this side and that; here is delight and rest, and there are fire and torture.’ So He shall speak to them on the day of judgment;
- 39 a day that has no sun or moon or stars,
- 40 or cloud or thunder or lightning, or wind or water or air, or darkness or evening or morning,
- 41 or summer or spring or heat, or winter or frost or cold, or hail or rain or dew,
- 42 or noon or night, or dawn or shining or bright light, but only the splendour of the esteem of the Most High, by which all shall see what has been appointed.
- 43 “It shall last as if for a week of years.
- 44 “This is My judgment and its appointed order; and to you alone have I shown these.”
For those of you that have stumbled and fallen away from Yahuah Elohim and Yahusha Messiah, Time is Short, Come Back To Him. Test what you are now listening to which has made you fall from Yahuah Elohim and Yahusha Messiah. Do the Deuteronomy 13 test to see if what you are listening to is true, or a counterfeit.
- Deuteronomy 13:1-8 [Yah Scriptures]
- 1 “When there arises among you a naḇi [prophet] or a dreamer of dreams, and he shall give you a sign or a wonder,
- 2 and the sign or the wonder shall come true, of which he has spoken to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other mighty ones - which you have not known - and serve them,’
- 3 do not listen to the words of that naḇi [prophet] or that dreamer of dreams, for Yahuah your Elohim is trying you to know whether you love Yahuah your Elohim with all your heart and with all your being.
- 4 “Walk after Yahuah your Elohim and revere Him, and guard His Commands and obey His voice, and serve Him and cling to Him.
- 5 “And that naḇi or that dreamer of dreams is put to death, because he has spoken apostasy against Yahuah your Elohim - who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim and redeemed you from the house of bondage - to make you stray from the Way in which Yahuah your Elohim commanded you to walk. Thus you
- shall purge the evil from your midst.
- 6 “When your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is as your own being, entices you
secretly, saying, ‘Let us go and serve other mighty ones’ - which you have not known, neither you nor your fathers, - 7 of the mighty ones of the people which are all around you, near to you or far off from you, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth -
- 8 do not agree with him or listen to him, nor shall your eye pardon him, nor spare him or conceal him,
- 2 Adam and Hawwah [Yah Scriptures]
- 39 But when Yereḏ saw what they did, his very soul wrenched itself from them and he would not taste their food or their drink.
- 40 The old one saw him as he wrenched himself from them, and said to him, “Do not be sad. I am the great elder, as you shall see me do, do yourself in like manner.”
- 41 Then he spread his hands and took one of the women, and five of his companions did the same in front of Yereḏ, that he should do as they did.
- 42 But when Yereḏ saw them doing their wickedness he wept, and said in his mind, “My fathers never acted like this.
- 43 He then spread his hands and prayed with a fervent heart, and with much weeping, and begged Elohim to deliver him from their hands.
- 44 No sooner did Yereḏ begin to pray than the old one fled with his companions; for they could not abide in a place of prayer.
- 45 Then Yereḏ turned round but could not see them, but found himself standing in the midst of the children of Qayin.
- 46 He then wept and said, “O Elohim, do not destroy me with this race, concerning which my fathers have warned me. For now, HWHY my Elohim, I was thinking that those who appeared to me were my forefathers, but I have found them out to be devils, who lured me by way of this beautiful apparition, until I believed them.
- 47 “But now I ask You, O Elohim, to deliver me from this race, among whom I am now staying, as You did deliver me from those devils. Send Your messenger to pull me out of the middle of them. I do not have the power within myself to escape from among them.”
- 48 When Yereḏ had ended his prayer, Elohim sent His messenger into the middle of them and he took Yereḏ and set him up on the mountain, and showed him the way, and he gave him wise advice, and then departed from him.
- Matthew 24:24 [Yah Scriptures]
- 24 “For false messiahs and false prophets shall arise, and they shall show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
- 25 “See, I have forewarned you.
26 “So if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe. - 27 “For as the lightning comes from the east and shines to the west, so also shall the coming of the Bĕn of Aḏam be.
