ISAIAH 9:6, HE SHALL BE CALLED ... EVERLASTING FATHER
|
|
"I AND 'THE FATHER' ARE ONE"
The Messiah is telling us that He is 'The Father', in the Flesh! Alahaym (God) the Son clothed in Flesh, ISAIAH 7:14, עמנואל A(e)manual (immanuel) The Messiah then tells us that He is The Son of Alahaym (God) "I AM THE SON OF ALAHAYM (GOD)", JOHN 10:36 אלהים Alahaym (God) is 'Holy Spirit', He, the Spirit is the 'Life' of His 'Flesh', being 'The Son of Man'. YAHUSHAH (JESUS) SAID TO THE PHARISEES, "...'THE FATHER' IS IN ME...", JOHN 10:38. These words are difficult to understand the first time we read them, until we consider the other Scriptures that show that the Messiah is telling us a Truth. HAVE I BEEN WITH YOU ALL THIS TIME PHILIP AND YOU STILL DON'T KNOW ME? He who has seen Me has seen 'The Father', why do you say show us the Father? |

ISRAEL HAS ONLY EVER KNOWN 'ONE' אלהים ALAHAYM (GOD)' SHAMA YASHRA'AL DEUTERONOMY 6:4 "HEAR O ISRAEL! YAHUAH OUR ALAHAYM (GOD) YAHUAH IS ONE, AND YOU SHALL LOVE YAHUAH YOUR ALAHAYM (GOD) WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH" |

JOHN 4:24,
The משיח Mashayach (Messiah) said, "Alahaym (God) is רוח Ruach (Spirit) and those who worship Him must worship Him in 'Spirit and Truth".
GENESIS 1:1,
The 'First One' created the other Alahaym מלכים Malachaym (Angels),
Psalm 104:4.
(You should read it all!), the Heavens and the Earth.
This is my translation of the Hebrew word, בראשית Barashayth, with the meaning 'First One' instead of 'In the beginning', ראשית Ra'ashayth or 'First One' understood from PROVERBS 8:22-36. You should read this! Before the Heavens and Earth were formed The Father brought into existence 'THE SPIRIT', the First to be brought into being before Creation. This was not a birth in any sense of the word found at Colossians1:15, the word in the Greek: prototokos, is a combination of two words, 'Proto' to be 'First' and 'Tokos' to bring forth or bring into existence. Spirit is not of this World, not Flesh, so not a Birth in the human sense. The following verse 16, we are given the correct context. COLOSSIANS 1:12-20, ...V15, He was the exact image of His Father and the exact representation of His very being..., He was given the name of His Father, a name that sets them apart from all other beings, The name YAHUAH. GENESIS 2:4. From that moment, His Father spoke, He, the 'Spirit Son' brought it into existence. He, The Son, was and is and will be The Yahuah Alahaym (God) whom His Father has appointed Heir of all things, whether in Heaven or on Earth. JOHN 1:3 All that exists came into being through Him and all that exists was made for Him. REVELATION 1:8 He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He exists to carry out the will of His Father. JOHN 1:18, No Man has seen His Father at any time because He dwells in unapproachable light, His Son has declared Him to the World. It pleased the Father to make The Son the head over all of Creation. He is the "Word", the one who spoke to Adam and Eve and walked with them in the Garden of Eden. The one who spoke to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who knew him by his title title, Hebrew: אלשדי AL SHADAY, God Almighty. We are shown at EXODUS 6:3, that Moses was privileged to know his true name. JOHN 17:5, He became, as we are, Flesh. He humbled emptied Himself of all importance (Glory) to the point of being a little lower than the angels (messengers) whereupon He was transferred by Holy Spirit to the womb of the Virgin Mary, She being the vessel that clothed him in a fleshly body, a body that would later be presented as the last and final offering for the sins (disobedience) of the world. When He was born into the world He received his name from His Heavenly Father, the Name spoken by the Angel to Joseph, "you will call His name YAHUSHAH because He will 'REDEEM' (in your Bible, 'Save') His people from their sins". As a child, needing all the same care and education as we do, He grew up being subjected to His father Joseph's will, but by the time He reached puberty He already knew more than His teachers and when the time arrived for His Anointing, being about 30 years old, His Heavenly Father guided Him to John the Baptist who had been sent to prepare The Way. Coming up from the water of Baptism He saw the Dove and heard the voice of His Father, "This is My Son the beloved in whom I am well pleased". Now knowing for certain who He was, He began to declare, with signs and miracles, The Good News about the plan of Redemption from Death and the power of Satan. JOHN 5:30, Although being in Human form, a Jew of the tribe of Judah and of the House of David, He was faithful in all things, He did not Sin. He fulfilled the Law which had been given through Moses, a Law which brought death to those under it, a Law which could never take away Sin. He stayed faithful to the Law until His Death, which meant that, because He did not sin, He was no longer under the power of the Law, so Death could not hold onto Him. Because of this The Father Resurrected Him back to Life in the flesh, He came out of the tomb with the same body that went in and He was seen by over 500 witnesses to the fact. When the time arrived for Him to return home to His Heavenly Father, (now 'Our Father'), His fleshly body was transformed (transfigured) into a Spiritual Body that still bears the marks of His death, marks that will be viewed by those who inflicted them on him, marks that are evidence of what took place. He gave His life as the Lamb provided by Alahaym (God) so that His people, which includes all of Israel, could have a new hope in this life. Through believing in Him they will receive the undeserved kindness from The Father and the Gift of Eternal Life which all who accept the 'New Covenant' in Faith will receive at His coming. The Scriptures say that The Son died for the whole World because we are all guilty of Sin and deserving the Death Sentence on the Day of Judgement. Those who claim to have no Sin are condemned already because they follow the Way of the Serpent and trample underfoot The Son of Alahym (God). The Sentence of Death had already been passed on Man in Eden. THE LIFE Yahuah knows what is in our Heart and Mind, so we must ask for His forgiveness. There is only one Way we can approach Him and that is through His Son. If we don't know about His Son, then we need to find out. If we have come to know Him, having accepted His Sacrifice, then we have to BELIEVE Yahushah (Jesus) is our Redeemer and believe in our heart that The Father raised Him from the dead, then we will receive our Redemption when He returns. The Father, has provided LIFE through our belief that Yahushah died to make it all possible. We must die, not literally (although the body still dies from old age) just dying to our former selves and having a good conscience (not doing anything that would offend Our Father) being Baptised immersed in water as a symbol of our Death to this world then being raised up out of the water to a new life now and the promise of a life to come. By following this Way, you will be able to approach the Father. You were condemned to death by the Creators Law. Now if you believe what Yahushah has said, you are dead to this life and if you accept the Life offered to you from Our Father through Yahushah, you are alive again and not under the Law which brings death. We normally have a tendency to question things and like to research a subject before committing to what it teaches. We have an inbuilt mistrust of others who tell us something is right or "the truth" and this makes it hard to accept. This is why the scriptures are so important because you can check them out for yourself. Faith comes from Learning about our Passed, how we came into being, the Present, what is happening now and the Future, what will happen. Yahushah is the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. You can read all about Him in the Scriptures. CAN WE TRUST A BOOK Almost any Scriptural Translation will deliver the Good News about The Father and His Son. We need to know however that for over 2000 years the Fathers Name has been hidden by the titles 'Lord' and 'God' in nearly 7000 instances. It helps if you can access the Hebrew to English interlinear so you can see where Our Fathers Name appears. It is the Spirit of Alahaym (God) that bares witness to the truth. If your heart and mind are set towards believing, the Spirit confirms to you that the words are true by touching your heart, and you will feel it, it is a very real experience. We also have an Unseen Enemy, the Serpent, Satan, also known as the Devil. Though we can't see him, we can see how he effects people around us. He doesn't want us to find out that he has been misleading people for thousands of years, trying to keep us in the Dark. People were even kept from reading the scriptures, having to rely on the Church to teach them. They were taught to reject any teachings that were contrary to Church Doctrine. Today, even though there are millions of Bibles in the world, many people have not read it for themselves, preferring to trust a Church to lead them into darkness instead of light. When the Messiah came to the Earth the situation was just the same. They would go to a Synagog to hear the Scroll being read, not having any understanding of their own. We usually want evidence to prove something is real. Is there such evidence to back up the Scriptures? Hard evidence? You shouldn't be surprised at the answer to this question because the evidence is staring you in the face. In the opening chapters of the Bible the explanation of how the Earth was formed and how we came into being is written for all to see, the evidence that backs up the written word are the People and the Earth itself! History and Archaeology provide evidence of things written in Scripture. The Bible bears witness to the Creation of the Heavens, the Sun, Moon and Stars, the Earth with all its varied life forms, the creation of Man and Woman. The Creators words spoken through the Prophets foretelling what was to come, the Seed of Promise made to Abraham, Through Faith, meaning He believed what אלשדי Alshaday (God Almighty) had said. The Good News or Gospels, cover the birth, life, death and resurrection of Yahushah (Jesus) and accounts of those who believed and bore witness to what they heard and saw regarding the Messiah. The Bible is a witness to 'Our Father' who is in Heaven and 'The Father' who is His Son (but can sometimes refers to His Father depending on the context), both have Love toward us all, but especially those who believe! There is no other Book like it in this World! What has become known as "The Old Testament" the Hebrew scriptures, actually contains the Good News about what was to come, the birth of The Messiah, the New Covenant and what Our Father has planned for the Future. The evidence today of Yahuah's faithfulness is the Nation of Israel having been brought back into existence, gathered back from the nations to their own land. Yahuah is fulfilling his promises made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel) and soon the Nation of Israel will look upon the Messiah, their conquering King and Redeemer at his return when he subdues all the nations of the Earth. Very soon all will believe in the Son of God because he will be here on Earth, ruling in the Kingdom. |
