Jewish-Israelite Apostasy in Scriptural, Spiritual, Obfuscation…Ezekiel 18:21-32

Jewish-Israelite Apostasy in Scriptural, Spiritual, Obfuscation…

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. Hosea 4:6 (ESV)

Jews and Israelite’s are perishing daily and are being relegated to Hades-Torments awaiting the Judgement of the Condemned and the “second death” in Hell as these deniers of Messiah Yeshua falsely believe, some simply obfuscate their self-righteousness in Torah Law, demanding that all one must do is repent of their sin in order to ingratiate themselves with the Father and earn eternal life. This is Judaic wilful ignorance, Rabbinical deception, and death to the soul in Hell.

Self-righteous Jews and Israelite’s actually believe that an Intercessor for sin, a Holy Mediator between humanity and the Father, is a ridiculous and absurd religious superstition.

Foundational Scripture for Judaic ApostasyDenial of Yeshua…

Ezekiel 18:21-32 AMPC

But if the wicked man turns from all his sins that he has committed and keeps all My statutes and does that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. None of his transgressions which he has committed shall be remembered against him; for his righteousness which he has executed [for his moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation], he shall live. Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked?

First of all,

Ecclesiastes 7:20 (AMP)

Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who always does good and who never sins.

Every Jew, every Israelite, every Gentile, has sinned and fallen short of the Father’s righteous mandates (Romans 3:23)…this includes you. If it were possible that a man or woman could keep, in mandated perfection, all of Elohim’s statutes it would not have been necessary for Messiah Yeshua to enter Time in flesh and suffer and die for your sin (James 2:10; Galatians 2:21). You are guilty of disobedience before our Holy and Righteous Creator (Romans 3:9-11; Romans 1:18-32).

Second,

What you do not understand is the divine mandate concerning entrance into the Kingdom of Elohim subsequent death of the body in Time, a Kingdom where “nothing impure is allowed to enter” (John 3; Revelation 21:27).

It is true that faith, repentance being an active form of faith, engendered covenant, righteousness (a right standing) with the Father for those in the Adamic, Noahic, Law, Covenants, but though the Old Testament saints had entered into a righteous covenant with Elohim by sincere faith (Hebrews 11) they could not enter the Kingdom subsequent death of their body because the acceptable blood atonement for sin as per Leviticus 17:11 had not yet manifest; therefore, these Old Testament saints, subsequent death of their body in the Realm of Time, were relegated to the region known in the Hebrew as Sheol or Hades-Paradise in the Greek.

A Mediator is mandated,

It is in Sheol-Paradise that the Old Testament saints awaited Messiah’s atoning sacrifice at Golgotha and the Holy Spirit teaches that while Messiah’s body lie in the tomb subsequent His murder on a Roman Cross, Messiah descended into Hades-Paradise and preached liberty i.e. the Gospel to the captives there and subsequently led them into the Kingdom as acceptable atonement had manifest through Messiah’s faithfulness and shed blood (Luke 16; Ephesians 4:7-10; 1 Peter 3:18-20). Messiah Yeshua was their Mediator and Messiah Yeshua is our Mediator today (1 Timothy 2:5). It is the atoning blood sacrifice of Messiah Yeshua that fulfills the promise of forgiveness of sin as per the New Covenant.

For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more. Hebrews 8:12 (ESV)

Today, in the New Covenant, when one passes from this life into the Eternal Realm subsequent death of the body and they are redeemed by faith in Messiah Yeshua, these covenant children of the Father are immediately translated into the presence of our Lord as Sheol-Paradise is now empty while Sheol-Torments (Hades) continues as a repository for all who die rejecting covenant with the Father by faith in the Son, Yeshua Messiah, for the remission of sin (2 Corinthians 5:8; Luke 16; Revelation 20:11-15).

Finally,

If you desire life in the Kingdom of God when you exit this fallen World via the portal of bodily death, you’ll have to agree with the Father in this Age of Grace concerning His Gospel and your place in the New Covenant, a New Covenant established in Messiah’s blood (John 3; Luke 22:20).

If you desire life in the Kingdom of God you must place your faith in Messiah Yeshua as your Mediator for sin believing with a sincere heart that Yeshua died for you to pay a sin-debt owed the Father that you could never pay yourself (John 3; John 14:6).

You must believe that Yeshua is our Mediator for sin and receive Yeshua’s imputed righteousness, a gifted righteousness earned for you by Yeshua through His perfect obedience to the Father’s will; otherwise, you will perish in the “second death” in Hell (John 3; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Revelation 20:11-15).

Jews/Israelite’s question Paul’s validity INRE to Romans 9:27 via Isaiah 10:22; what is Truth?

Jews/Israelite’s question the validity and application of Apostle Paul’s eschatological pronouncement and interpretation of Isaiah 10:22 via Romans 9:27. What is the Truth?

The Apostle Paul, in Romans 9:27, uses the language, application, of Isaiah 10:22, in an eschatological rendering concerning the hardness of heart and judgment of Israel’s children post Crucifixion. Only a “remnant” of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due to their rebellion, their unbelief, their rejection of the New Covenant, their rejection of the Great Commission; their rejection of Yeshua as Messiah, their murder of Messiah, their forefather’s demands that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25; Luke 13:31-35; Matthew 28:16-20). Post Crucifixion Israel is under Judgment (Romans 11:25).

Israel’s children, save a minuscule faction of Messianic Jews, continue in their unbelief/blasphemy of the Spirit to this very day; Jews and Israelite’s stubbornly continue in their apostasy, their self-righteousness in law, their arrogance toward the Christian Gentile; Jews and Israelite’s continue to mock the Gospel and the suffering of Yeshua and they will certainly reap what they have sown in unbelief and unwarranted pride and arrogance.

That Jewish “remnant” entering the Millennial Kingdom and the New Jerusalem will be overwhelmingly represented by Tribulation Era Jews and Israelite’s proselytized by the 144,000 sanctified Jewish witnesses and those who observe Messiah’s 2nd-Advent to Mount Olivet, a period of Jewish repentance and salvation manifesting toward the final chapter of Tribulation horror; this, while the Father patiently waits for the children of Israel to leave the far country and return to Him by faith in Messiah Yeshua (Revelation 7&14; John 19:37; Zechariah 12:10; Revelation 1:7; Psalm 22:16; Luke 15:11-32).

Islam-Judaism v. Christianity, Why?

Question was asked in a religious forum: “Why do Jews have more respect for Islam than Christianity? Why is a Jew allegedly welcomed in a Mosque while Christians are forbidden?”

Christian response,

Christianity is Truth…the fulfillment of Torah but the Jew, the Israelite, is under Judgment for having denied the Messiah, having murdered Him upon a tree and demanding that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children; therefore, Israel’s children cannot see, they cannot hear, they cannot discern (Matthew 27:25; Romans 10).

Judaism, like Islam, is a religion of works and self-sufficiency-arrogance and self-righteousness. Islam is demonically rooted in Satan whose “Allah” masquerades as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god (2 Corinthians 11:14). Islam’s false prophet, Muhammad, is a 7th-Century demon possessed murdering pedophile – a nomadic thief that plagiarized the Torah to construct the Quran.

Judaism is also under the sway of Satan as only a “remnant” of Israel’s children will escape the 2nd-death in Hell due to rejection of Messiah Yeshua (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27).

Islam and Judaism have become “two-peas in a pod” in apostasy, arrogance, self-righteousness. Christianity honors and serves the Living God, Jesus Christ, the Father and the Holy Spirit. Islam and Judaism serve Satan in unbelief; therefore, dissension, hate, is expected and realized as attributes of anyone who serves the Devil.

Christianity honors the Father through faith in the Son; Islam – Judaism honor a World system that honors the god of this World – Satan (2 Corinthians 4:4).

How and Why did Elohim create the Heavens and the Earth?

How and Why did Elohim create the Heavens and the Earth?

The Father, in response to Satan’s rebellion, commissioned the Son (John 3:35; John 1; Hebrews 1; Colossians 1) to take elements from the unseen Spiritual Realm and fashion those elements into matter (Hebrews 11:3) that can be apprehended by a life form constrained by Time, physics, flesh; a life form created in His spiritual image (Genesis 1:26-28).

The Great War in the Kingdom was then removed from the Kingdom where “nothing impure” is permitted to exist (Revelation 21:27) and placed upon this Earth and this Kingdom War is presently partially constrained by Time and physics as the primary reason Elohim entered the Realm of Time in flesh was “to destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8b) via selfless love as per the Gospel that was initiated as a battle strategy “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-10), that battle strategy was ultimately fulfilled with Messiah’s words at Golgotha, “It is finished” (John 19:30).

Jesus Christ is our Creator, Warrior, King, Messiah, Judge, who personally observed the extrication of Satan from the Kingdom (Luke 10:18) and Satan’s placement in Eden (Genesis 3) where the cosmic battle between the Son and Satan was proclaimed in Genesis 3:15 and the battle strategy to defeat Satan pictured in Genesis 3:21 (the Gospel); that is, the shedding of innocent blood to clothe humanity in an imputed-gifted “robe of righteousness” apart from the works of man’s hands, man’s efforts (fig leaves) to conceal and cover his own iniquity (2 Corinthians 5:21; Ephesians 2:8-9).

The entirety of Scripture is Elohim’s explanation and detailed progression relevant to His eschatological plan to restore peace and holiness and justice to His eternal Kingdom, a Kingdom defiled by the sin of covetousness and violence before Time began. The travails of humanity, the horrors of disobedience within the Realm of Time will act as a bulwark against future rebellion in the Kingdom where free will exists by necessity.

Concerning the Biblical Trinity and your salvation from death in Hell…

Concerning the Biblical Trinity and your salvation,

Elohim (Genesis 1:1) has introduced Himself, the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:2) has clearly articulated the truism, that our God, Elohim, is One-God in essence; that is, possessing all attributes of divinity which is represented within the Realm of Time in three-distinct-unique Persons possessing individual will and specific eschatological purpose.

To deny this truism, the Trinity, that denial is either rooted in religious prejudice, spiritual ignorance or demonic deception; in fact, if you do not see and acknowledge the necessity for Messiah’s deity you do not possess the Holy Spirit as Guarantor of Covenant (Ephesians 1:13-14); therefore, you remain in your sin and you will perish in the “second death” in the Lake of Fire (John 8:24; Revelation 20:11-15).

The eternal differentiating truism, the eternal chasm existing between those deceived by a religion and those truly redeemed by faith in Jesus Christ via the Gospel via the New Covenant is the knowledge, confession, assurance, that Jesus is “I AM” eternally (Exodus 3:14; John 8:24).

Questions for the Christian who compromises with alcohol, THC…

Questions for the Christian who compromises with alcohol, THC-Cannabis…

If you advocate the consumption of alcohol, THC-cannabis, in the life of a Christian, a Christian’s daily life whose sanctification via the Holy Spirit is wholly dependent upon the redeemed conscience employed BY the Spirit for holiness and obedience….where even the thought life is subject judgment impeding intimacy with our Creator….

1) At what point in your consumption of a depressant e.g. alcohol, THC, is your discernment, your wisdom, your ability to discern the will of the Holy Spirit thwarted?

2) At what point does your consumption of an intoxicating depressant or stimulant become adversity, disobedience, to the word of God and therefore sin?

3) How will you know or what physiological – psychological sign or indicator warns you of approaching compromise and disobedience as you consume these substances?

Christianity and Alcohol, THC, Nicotine,

Christianity and the consumption of Alcohol, THC, Tobacco-Nicotine, and other regulated, non-regulated narcotics…

Subsequent my OP titled “Is it wise for a Christian to consume alcohol,” I’ve received some serious “push-back” and worldly inspired attempts to justify Christian compromise with mind/conscience altering behavior. Let me be clear and explain why alcohol and other such drugs are a NO GO for the Christian who sincerely seeks to please the Father through obedience to the Holy Spirit via sanctification.

Alcohol for the Christian is a compromise with the World, a fallen and evil World that hates our God and glorifies the Devil. Alcohol, a depressant, lowers inhibitions and manipulates the human conscience, the human conscience which is employed by the Holy Spirit in the New Covenant to sanctify, guide, the redeemed in Jesus in holiness, righteousness, obedience, via the daily process of sanctification as the Holy Spirit prepares the redeemed for service in the New Jerusalem; therefore, ingesting, consuming, that which alters and manipulates the conscience apart from the Spirit is negating the Father’s will for your life and mocking the suffering of Messiah who gave Himself for your redemption, a redemption that makes sanctification by the Spirit possible.

Why consume that which gives place for the Devil in your life and grieves the Holy Spirit given you as Guarantor of Covenant with the Father (Ephesians 1:13-14)? Why consume that which thwarts the eternally relevant work of the Holy Spirit in your life?

Christians have no business ingesting, smoking, consuming, alcohol, THC-cannabis, nicotine-tobacco or any illicit narcotic or drug (other than legitimate medical prescriptions) that alters the conscience and consequently wars against the Holy Spirit’s leadership, tutelage, anointing, sanctification. You injure your walk and your testimony when you seek to justify your compromise with the Devil.

Ephesians 4:27-30,

27 Neither give place to the devil.

28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

What are the eternal ramifications of denying the Deity of Jesus Christ? Is Jesus God – Elohim – I AM?

What are the eternal ramifications of denying the Deity of Jesus Christ? Is Jesus God – Elohim – I AM?

Christian response,

If one professes a New Covenant relationship with the Father by faith in the Son as Messiah yet they don’t see the necessity for Messiah’s deity, this individual is deceived, they are NOT in Covenant, they do not possess the indwelling Holy Spirit and they therefore remain in their sin and remain on the path to destruction in Hell. The indwelling Holy Spirit is the One who teaches the Deity of Messiah and if one denies Messiah’s Deity, they are absent the Spirit who is the Guarantor of Covenant and they are absent life (Ephesians 1:13-14; John 3).

Must one possess knowledge of Messiah’s deity as a precursor to salvation? No, but subsequent entering into New Covenant relationship with the Father by faith in the Son, Jesus Christ, as Messiah and receiving the Holy Spirit as the Guarantor of that Covenant, the one who is truly redeemed will KNOW and CONFESS that Jesus is God, Elohim, I AM and that Jesus could be nothing less than our omnipotent Creator (John 8:24; John 1; Hebrews 1; Colossians 1).

Knowledge of, confession of, Jesus as Elohim – God – Creator – Messiah is the critical differentiation between a truly redeemed Christian and every religion, sect, cult, existing in our fallen World today. If you deny the deity of Jesus, you belong to the Devil, not the Father.

Is it wise for a Christian to consume alcohol?

Is it wise for a Christian to consume alcohol?

Christian response,

No. Alcohol has long become a social stigma, a catalyst for the sin-nature, in our Nation and around the World. Alcohol lowers inhibitions; weakens the conscience; fights against the indwelling Holy Spirit’s wisdom and discernment via the daily process of Christian sanctification; therefore, it is NOT wise that one who loves the Father, loves Jesus, possesses the Holy Spirit, consumes that which wars against the One, the Spirit, who daily, meticulously, patiently, prepares them for service in the New Jerusalem.

Furthermore, alcohol’s social stigma is equated with a World system, a fallen human nature, possessing and demonstrating a proclivity for moral compromise, a sinful nature that wars against holiness and purity; therefore, the Christian that compromises with alcohol consumption causes the weaker brethren to stumble and this offends the Father and stymies the work of the Holy Spirit as a Restrainer of evil. For these reasons it is not good that a Christian consume alcohol or engage in any behavior that causes others to stumble.

Christianity and the Trinity

Christianity and the Trinity

A Christian believes what the Holy Spirit has clearly articulated and displayed in the Canon of Scripture. Elohim is One-God introduced in Scripture in Three-Distinct-Persons who are One-God in essence (possessing all immutable attributes of deity) yet possess individual will, individuality in eschatological responsibilities.

Father – Administrator

Son – Creator, Warrior, Messiah, Judge

Holy Spirit – Logistics

How easy and convenient it would be to believe in the false “Oneness” theology suggesting the Father is the Son and the Son is the Spirit but this is NOT what the Holy Spirit, Jesus, the Father, teach.

If anyone suggests they are redeemed by faith in Jesus and in a New Covenant relationship with the Father yet they deny the Deity of the Son, Jesus Christ, they are deceived and they are headed to the “second death” in Hell in their sin (John 8:24).

It is the Holy Spirit who teaches the Triune Nature of Elohim; therefore, those redeemed by faith in the Son and subsequently possess the indwelling Holy Spirit as Guarantor of Covenant, these will KNOW Jesus as Elohim – I AM and testify of same (Ephesians 1:13-14; Hebrews 1; John 1; Colossians 1).

Though Jesus and the Father are ONE in Deity (John 10:28-30) they are two-separate Persons of the Godhead.

Can I, as a fallen human being, explain our Omniscient, Omnipotent, Elohim? No. If my three-pound brain could fathom and explain Elohim I too would be Deity; therefore, I honor what the Holy Spirit has provided by faith and make no attempt to explain the reality of the Trinity as this is how Elohim has chosen to introduce Himself to His created beings; therefore, I honor the Holy Spirit and accept those things I cannot explain or thoroughly understand; again, this by faith.
