Love

“God is love.” (1 Yohan 4:8, 16)

“For God so loves the world (all people), that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish (in sin and death and judgment), but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” (Yohan 3:16-17) These words of Yeshua do not contradict in anyway the sayings, “Many are called and few are chosen” and “for all people have not faith.” In the Mashiach all things are reconciled. So despite a few being chosen, and all people having not faith, God loves all people without partiality.

“But as touching the love of the brothers and sisters in the Mashiach you need not that I write unto you. For you yourselves are taught of God to love one another. And indeed do love toward all the brethren…,but we beseech you, brethren, that you increase more and more (in love).” (2 Thes 4:9-10) But as touching the love of the brethren you should need not that I write unto you, because I have this confidence in the grace of God, that you yourselves are taught of God concerning love. For God chose me as He chose you and granted me grace to accept the one true gospel. And at the same time I was taught of God concerning the love of God. I needed no man to teach me concerning the love of God. And this same grace, if indeed it was given to you, works the same way toward all. This is witnessed to by all the writings of the apostolos.

“Keep yourselves in the love of God (this is done by the continual giving of grace by God), looking for the mercy of our Lord Yeshua ha Mashiach to eternal life.” (Jude 21)

“A new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another, AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, and that you should love one another. By this (love) shall all people know that you are my disciples, if you have love among one another.” (Yohan 13:34-35)

“As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Continue ye in My love. If you keep My commandments, you shall abide in My love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in His love. These things have I spoken to you, that My joy might remain among you, and that your joy might be full.” Yohan 15:9-12

“This is my commandment, that you love one another, AS I HAVE LOVED YOU. Greater love has no person that this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you.” (Yohan 15:12-14)

“Beloved, let us love one another, FOR LOVE IS OF GOD, and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God, FOR GOD IS LOVE.” (1 Yohan 4:7-8)

“And now I bessech thee, lady (assembly, the bride of the Mashiach), not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. And this is love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment (love of the brethren), that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.” (2 Yohan 5-6)

“Brothers and sisters, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard from the beginning. Again a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. They who say they are in the light, and hateth their brother or sister, are in darkness even until now. They who loveth their brother and sister abideth in light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in them. But they who hate their brother or sister is in darkness, and knoweth not where they go, because the darkness has blinded their eyes. I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.” (1 Yohan 2:8-12)

“I will not be burdensome to you, for I seek not yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. And I will gladly be spent for you, though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved. But be it so, I did not burden you. Nevertheless being crafty, I caught you with guile (the guile of the love of God and the one true gospel). Did I make gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?” (2 Cor 12:14-17)

“I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in the truth.” (3 Yohan 4) This declares our blessed God and Father and the Lord Yeshua ha Mashiach to the assembly of the living God by His Spirit. God is the God of the living and not the dead. In Adam all died, in the Mashiach all are made alive, in God’s own order. Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Yeshua is Lord to the glory of God the Father. The end of the Lord is the Lord is very pitiful and of tender mercies. His mercy endures forever and ever. For He has gifts for the righteous and the rebellious, sayeth God.

As you see I have not many of my own words to write, but many words of the apostolos from their writings.

I mark this writing by the one true gospel. The one true gospel is the Mashiach, Yeshua ha Mashiach, died for our sins according to the Old Testament, He was buried and He rose again the third day according to the Tanach. (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) For through the preaching of the one true gospel God gives grace to accept the gospel, and He teaches those whom He gives grace, so they might endure to the end.

The Only True Gospel is Life

There is one gospel. In this crooked generation it must be repeated over and over that there is only one gospel as it has been and must be in every generation. The one true gospel is the Mashiach, Yeshua ha Mashiach, died for our sins according to the Old Testament, He was buried and He rose again the third day according to the Tanach. (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) “Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and be established in the present truth. Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tabernacle of the flesh, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.”

There is not a big bang theory of creation with God. God does not have any theories. People seeking to the ends of universe will not get themselves any closer to understanding why and how we are here and knowing their God. The thoughts of God our beyond our thoughts. God gives understanding as He gives grace according to His will for a person to accept and continue to accept the one true gospel. Amen and Amen! From the one true gospel all of creation came forth and comes forth. From the Mashiach, Yeshua, all the creation came forth from God, who is one. The one God reveals Himself as the Father and the Son, and by the Spirit of the Father. The one true God is creator of all things and the children of grace understand Him by the Father and the Son. The testimony of two confirm the fact that God is and a rewarder of Him who diligently seek Him by the grace He gives them.

Some might say, please give us understanding of the creator, God? “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Mashiach who has blessed us with all blessings of the Spirit in places of the heavens (where God abides) in the Mashiach, according as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love.” (Eph 1:3-4) The saints of the most high God, are the ones who will have conversation face to face with our God forever, who were purposed in Yeshua ha Mashiach before the foundations of the world, before they had done any evil or good. When we were purposed before the world began, there was God’s eternal purpose in the Mashiach. We were purposed in the Mashiach. Before the purposing of people there was the Mashiach and God’s eternal purpose. There was God’s intent to suffer and die at the hand of the creatures He would create, before He purposed the election of grace and created people. And so what is before the world began? There is God and His eternal purpose in the Mashiach. Then the election is purposed along with all creation. For the creature will crucify God. There will be trees and nails and crowns of thorns and vinegar and hammers and scourges and rods to beat the Son of God and a shovel to dig a hole to place the cross and a robe to place upon his scourged back and to be taken off on Mt. Tzion and to be divided by lots. There shall be graves and spices for burial that the Mashiach could be buried and fulfill the eternal purpose of God. And there shall be a resurrection not the first day, nor the second but the third day, to crown the Son of God with the glory, the glory He had from before the world began. All things are by Him and through Him and for Him. You see, beloved, the Jews, those of Yudah, are not Christ-killers as it is said, for it is written in the writings of the apostolos, “Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God (before the world began), you have taken and by lawless hands have slain.” God the Father purposed the slaying of the Son at the hand of the creatures. “This night you shall all be offended by Me.” All are offended by God in His purpose in slaying of the Son of God. This greatly offends all. This is necessary for God to give His life for the life of all. How great is the value of all people when God considered His life a fair trade, a redemption for all, especially those who believe. In time past God considered how to show His love to the creation in word and deed. “In Adam all died, in the Mashiach all are made alive, in God’s own order.”

And so before the world began there was God and there was life, for He is life enduring, and God is light and He is love. And He determined His eternal purpose in the Mashiach, who is Yeshua of Nazareth. And He then chose the election of grace, and then the rest. And a few shall be saved, and all shall live, and everything will be as it should. It shall be good, very good, forever and ever. And God’s purpose in the Mashiach shall be complete, and then shall God be all in all. (1 Cor 15:28)

God is Love!

I heard one of the false prophets recently say, that to overemphasize the love of God is idolatry. Then he included mercy, judgment, grace, etc, etc, all God’s attributes to not be overemphasize, for this is all idolatry. Brethren, I am going to cut to chase. In the grace of God there is one thing that cannot be overemphasized, and that is the one true gospel. How many, if you ask them, what the one true gospel is, will not tell you what the one true gospel is, though it is clearly written in the writings of the apostolos. How many will cringe who call themselves Christians when you declare that the gospel you preach is the one true gospel. They say you are arrogant and prideful, because you say your gospel is the one true gospel. Because you say your gospel is only true. I make no apologies for saying my gospel is the one true gospel. I have Yeshua as a witness and the apostolos and their writings that all witness to this. God is my witness.

Yes, my gospel is the one true gospel because it is the gospel of Yeshua the Mashiach (Luke 24), and the gospel of Paul (1 Cor 15:1-6). The gospel of Paul is the same gospel the other first apostolos gave their agreement to. (Gal 2:9) The right hand of fellowship given by the apostolos is agreement with the gospel Paul preached which is the gospel Yeshua  preached. There is one gospel. The gospel I preach and the gospel of all the true messengers of God in every generation and the gospel the apostolos preached which is the one and only true gospel of Yeshua the Mashiach, is the only gospel preached that is the gospel. For other gospels are no gospels at all. The one true gospel is the Mashiach, Yeshua of Nazareth, died for our sins according to the Old Testament, He was buried and He rose again the third day according to the Tanach (Old Testament). (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) Who can debate these things who call themselves Christians except they be of the father the false accuser?

And from the preaching of the one true gospel at the time of conversion, and continuing all the days of the believers’ life if there be grace, if there be an assembly, if there be a messenger, the understanding of God comes forth. God teaches as He gives grace by His will at the first by the one true gospel. God teaches His children by the continueal preaching of the one true gospel to the end. He that endureth to the end shall be saved. At the first by the one true gospel God teaches His children that He is love and He loves all people. (1 John 4) You do not need a man to teach you these things. God is the teacher and if you know not this, then you are not of God. “He that loveth not, knoweth not God, for God is love.” Do you not know this? Paul writes in his first letter to the Thessalonians, “But as touching brotherly love you need not that I write unto you. For you yourselves are taught of God to love one another.” It is my testimony when God gave grace to me at the first, that there was the understanding that God loves all people, because He through the Mashiach died for all people, no person excluded. Because God through the Mashiach died at the hand of the creature according to His eternal purpose and gave His life for all people, He is love and He loves all people from every generation and every nation. “In thy seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed.” And the seed is one, and the seed is the Mashiach. The interpretation is sure and true. Read Galatians. In the faith of Yeshua ha Mashiach there is no partiality. God choses the elect before the foundations of the world before they did any evil or good. It is grace and it is love. In Adam all died, in the Mashiach all are made alive, each person in God’s own order. Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Yeshua is Lord to the glory of God the Father. The end of the Lord is the Lord is very pitiful and of tender mercies. His mercy endures forever and ever, without end.

And so to all the children of God, God is love. Forsake not your first love, the love of God in the Mashiach. The one true gospel which is the power of God unto salvation. The gospel is the Mashiach and Yeshua and God and love and power. It is the perfect message of God. Do not forsake what God has taught you at the first, His love toward all people of all nations, if indeed He has taught you. Maranatha, Lord Yeshua, in this crooked generation of judgment.

Did Yeshua Go to Hell?

Sheol is the grave. The Greek word “hades” from which our word “hell” is derived, is the word translated from the Hebrew, sheol. So the question should be “Did Yeshua go to sheol?” or “Did Yeshua go to the grave?” Yes. He tasted death for all people. Thus all were dead, and God loves all people. He went to the grave, but death could not hold Him. For no one can take His life, for He laid down His own life according to the eternal purpose of God in the Mashiach.

It is true, nothing more and nothing less, the Yeshua tasted death for all people and then God raised Him from the dead the third day. But He was not in the grave as those who die without the Mashiach. For it is written, “For Thou will not leave My soul in sheol, neither will you suffer Thine holy One to see corruption. Thou wilt show Me the truth of life. In Thy presence is fulness of joy. At thy right hand there are pleasures forever more.” Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you of the patriarch David, who wrote the prophecy, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. Therefore being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up the Mashiach to sit on his throne. He seeing this before spake of the Mashiach, that his soul was not left in sheol, neither His flesh did see corruption. This Yeshua has God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

Did Yeshua go to sheol? The answer is He tasted death for all people.

Must I Know and Obey the “One True Gospel” to be Saved?

Apart from the one true gospel, no person can be saved. God grants us grace during the time the one true gospel is preached, whether by a minister of the gospel or Him. God is able to preach the gospel to one He has chosen. Read about the conversion of Paul.

To answer this question, “must I know and obey the “one true gospel” to be saved,” the one true gospel must be declared. The one and only true gospel is the Mashiach, Yeshua of Nazareth, died for our sins according to the Old Testament, He was buried and He rose again the third day according to the Tanach. (Luke 24, 1 Cor 15:1-6) Now that the one true gospel is settled, I can go on and answer the question. The question is meaningless if the gospel preached is not the one true gospel. If the gospel preached is not the one true gospel, it is no gospel at all.

If the gospel is preach to a person and God grants grace for him or her to accept it, he or she knows the gospel. It is accepted. To obey the gospel is not to live according to law, the letter of the law, but to live by grace and the Spirit. “Keep the commandment” is the exhortation. Or in the Spirit, “keep the prophecy”. Do you not know that all the Law, the Torah, is prophecy concerning the Mashiach? “The Prophets and the Law prophesy until Yohan.” The Torah first and foremost is prophecy, the foretelling of the Mashiach who is Yeshua of Nazareth. So to answer the first part of the question “must I know?” Of course. God must give you grace to know the one true gospel or no person can be saved. Keep the Law lawfully and remembered the prophecies by the grace given you. This is the lawful keeping of the Law!

And how does one obey the gospel? By continuing in the grace and continuing to attach oneself to this form of teaching. How does one continue in the grace of God? By God continually giving grace. It is grace at the beginning, and grace to the end. And what is the form of teaching? The one true gospel I know I preach is the oly form of teaching God has to teach His chosen ones. If you continue to walk in grace attached to the one true gospel, you will truly be the disciple of the Lord and you shall be saved. “If you abide in My word, then you are truly my disciples.” They who endure to the end shall be saved. They shall be saved from sin, death and judgment.

With obedience there is dominion and authority and the preaching of the one true gospel, the preaching of the Mashiach. I agree with Paul, “Not that we have dominion over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy. For by the faith you stand.” And “the faith” is the “faith of Yeshua”. There are not many faiths, but one faith. And this is the faith of the one true gospel, I am sure I preach. God is my witness.
