Come!!  Let us go up!!

All across Christendom there is an amazing, Spirit-directed,  Torah awakening going on.  The goal of Yehovah, according to Scripture,  is the restoration of the Kingdom!

The house of Israel’s rebellion was not against the house of Judah, but against the house of David.  See 1 Kings 12:19.  In coming to Yeshua Ben David, we  begin to heal this divide, but there is a next and greater step of allegiance:

If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their Lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehoboam king of Judah.
1 Kings 12:27 KJV

Do you really want to take steps toward restoring the Kingdom?  Do you really, really want to see Messiah on the throne?

Then, here is the answer: make personal sacrifice and begin going to Jerusalem for the feasts…  even if just once every year or two!!  Help others get to the feasts.  Send fellowship/congregational representatives!!

GO UP!!!

On that note, stay tuned for an opportunity to go up for Pesach and the 3rd B’ney Yosef Congress.  Details in the next day or two…

From generation to generation….


Numerous passages of Scripture declare, not only that God doesn’t change, but that His Torah, His instructions for righteousness, remain in effect.

Theological contortionist and doctrinal gymnastics aside, the seventh day Sabbath has not been changed (Ex. 20:8-11).   The feasts of the Lord remain in effect (Lev. 23), and eating unclean still brings curses (Is. 66:16-17).  

Please.  Read what your Bible actually says, not what man made church doctrines say it says.

Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the Lord , because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law.
Hosea 8:1 KJV

Surprised by tears….

Over the course of the last six months, Al McCarn and I have been co-authoring a book, Ten Parts in the King, that is about to be published.  We really had most of the book finished within two months of starting, but have sensed Abba guiding us toward refining the text and insuring the tone is right and compassionately humble.  Part of His guidance toward that end, He has led us to place the manuscript before a number of persons from a broad background, both Christian and Jewish, for input, review and feedback.

One such reviewer invited us to middle Tennessee last weekend for a Sunday morning interview to be edited into two segments for her international ministry’s online video program.  While details and links to this upcoming program will be released at the appropriate time, I tell you that to give the background for why we were there and something special the Father showed us.

Because we did not want to travel on Shabbat for the early Sunday interview, we reached out to friends, Eddie and Wendy, who graciously hosted us.  Friday evening and all of Shabbat were wonderfully full of deep and thoughtful discussion about myriad topics, though the subject matter of the book remained central.  Shabbat afternoon as we sat with them and another couple, Dean and Karen, under their back porch sukkah, our discussion again went to Ten Parts in the King and the details of the division between the House of Israel and the House of Judah.  Then, as we dug deeper than the scope of the book, we were surprised by tears.

The Barking Fox’s Annual Torah and Bible Reading Plan

It is the time of year that we return to the beginning!!  The Torah cycle is renewed this coming Shabbat and I was asked if the Barking Fox, Al McCarn, had published his annual reading plan that includes the Torah Portions along with an ordered reading of the rest of Scripture.  And, YES!  Yes, he has.

Here is a link to his article for the plan and here is the download link for the plan so you can keep a copy in your Bible and follow along.

 

Great disappointment coming for rapture seekers

Many, many Christian television, YouTube channels and radio stations are breathlessly try to outdo each other in trumpeting the rapture implications of the ‘Great Sign’ we are about to see in the heavens.  I, too, have written about the Revelation 12:1-2 sign that will happen this weekend, though I clearly stated that it would not be what the masses want it to be.

Literally, a hundred or more prophesies demand that kol (all) Israel, i.e., both houses, be regathered to the Land.  There is some debate as to the time of this gathering relative to the coming of the Messiah, but certainly, there is no ‘catching away’ to some ethereal nether-region of saints.  That is good Christian fiction.

Anyone who wants to understand Yeshua’s words in Matthew 24:31 concerning the signs in the heavens and the angels sent to gather the elect MUST recognize that Yeshua cites Deuteronomy 30:4 with the direct reference (see the Hebrew) when he says, “…from one end of the sky to the other…”  The conditions for this gathering have not been met, yet!

YES!  The heavens are filled with signs, but the gathering will not happen until those who belong to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob recognize their rebellion against His Torah, the path/way of righteousness, perfectly exampled in Yeshua.  (If it was good enough for Yeshua and the Apostles, then 1800 years of lawless Christian dogma ought not sway us from the way of the King!)  But, maybe the signs are there to wake us up to the fullness of time!

As I have previously stated, I believe that this sign portents a HUGE, even MONUMENTAL, shift in the relationship between the House of Judah and the House of Israel.  Most do not have the eyes to see it… yet, but it will become evident in the very near future.  Just as the sign at the coming of the Messiah in 2 BCE was seen by a few shepherds and some sages from the East, but unnoticed for decades by everyone else, this may have an equally missed point until hindsight clarifies the earth shaking awakening that will accelerate in the coming year or two.

To understand what is happening in the world today, study the massive Torah awakening happening throughout Christendom and then read the prophets!!  Prophecy is unfolding before us and it ALL points to the restoration of Israel, the mission of Yeshua.  Acts 1:6-7!!

 

Paradigm-shifting article by R. Nachman Kahana!!

Rabbi Nachman Kahana

A couple weeks ago, good friend and fellow journeyman, Hanoch Young alerted a number of us about a paradigm shifting thought written by Rabbi Nachman Kahana as part of his weekly Parasha commentary.  Immediately, I wrote Hanoch back and asked him to write an article exploring the implications of Nachman’s earth shaking postulations.  He graciously did so an posted it, yesterday.

Before reading Hanoch’s thoughts, take a few minutes to digest Rabbi Nachman’s commentary.

Hanoch’s article of comment, titled Who WILL Populate the Land of Israel in the Future?, is hosted on United2Restore‘s website.  I definitely recommend signing up over there for email updates and notifications.

Bottom-line, R. Nachman, highly respected Torah and Talmud scholar, breaks with millennia of Orthodox Jewish thought and make the bold assertion that the Ten Lost Tribes will not look Jewish upon their return and, without coming right out and saying iut, he implies that conversion to, or embracing of Judaism should not be a prerequisite for returning to the Land.

Truly monumental!!

We are in amazing days!  This is one more piece of evidence that the time of return draws very near!
