For a lousy piece of fruit or a lousy bowl of soup, look what was lost! Our very salvation is at stake, depending on the decisions that we make! We must try to always make good, wise decisions and learn from our mistakes. However, when you make a mistake, you have to learn to overcome and repent— repent from sinning, which is transgression of the law. Yes, the laws are still in effect! Do the decisions we make put a smile on Yahweh’s face? Think of Job. Again, verse 16 above says ...they desire a better country, an heavenly: wherefore Yahweh is not ashamed to be called their Elohim. Is Yahweh ashamed of us? Think how He boasted about Job. Job 1:7, And Yahweh said unto Satan, “Whence comest thou?” Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, “From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.” (Satan was, and is still, accountable to Yahweh. He might be the “god” of this world right now, which that will be shortlived, because he still must answer to Yahweh.) Job 1:8, And Yahweh said unto Satan, “Hast thou considered My servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth Elohim, and escheweth evil?” What a recommendation! Will we ever obtain that? Of course, you know the rest of that story. Satan was given permission to smite Job up to even the point of death. I can only imagine what that man had to endure, but he was faithful and did not curse Elohim, as his wife told him to do. Job lost everything he had except one thing—his wife. I think the reason was that Satan wanted to give him just a little more temptation because she kept saying, “Curse Yahweh and be done with it!” But he would not. His friends kept hammering him, but he would not falter. Job 19:23-27, Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were printed in a book! That they were graven with an iron pen and lead, in the rock forever! For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: and though after my skin, worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see Elohim: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me. We will see our Redeemer. With our own eyes, we will see Him. He’s always been there by you. March-April 2013
You just couldn’t see Him. He’s always been standing by you, He’s always been ready to be your Advocate before the Father when you repented. We owe everything to Yahweh and to Yahshua because without Yahshua, we cannot go directly to the Father. So, when you make decisions, make them wisely! A lot of you out there made a lot of sacrifices to be at the Feast—sacrifices of time and money. But you made those sacrifices—those decisions to be obedient to Yahweh’s Word when He tells you to keep the Feasts. It may have taken dollars out of your pocket, but think of the eternal dollars you will gain as a reward. The things of Satan are going to be burned up in this world when it is purified, but the gifts of Yahweh are eternal and will last forever. Eternity—that’s what we want, isn’t it? Most of all, stay true to the Word, stay true to Yahweh and be rewarded that eternal retirement plan. HalleluYah!
Have you checked out the children’s website lately? There’s a very challenging word find puzzle where you first must match up fathers and sons and THEN find all their names. Let us know how you do on it. We’ve added the Book of Genesis to the Bible Books section. This section has entire books with tasks and challenges mixed in and followed by a quiz to test your knowledge. The book of Ruth is also ready and is a great lesson for everyone. Someday we’ll have the entire Bible online, in a fashion easily readable by younger children! If you would like to see a specific book put on, let us know by calling or e-mailing the office and we’ll do what we can to get it on. Now that the camps are done for the year, you should be seeing pictures from them. We would like to hear from those attending what you thought and we can put your thoughts on the site. May Yahweh bless you all and we hope to see you soon at His upcoming Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread celebration here in Missouri!
