DON'T SEETHE THE KID IN ITS MOTHER'S MILK

Paul indicates in 2 Timothy 3:10 that from a child Timothy had known the word that could make him wise to salvation. Indeed Deuteronomy 6:6-7 notes that we shall talk about the word with our children. Psalm 127:3 says that children are gifts from Yahweh, and Proverbs 17:6 notes that grandchildren are the crown of an old man. Proverbs 22:6 says that we should “train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”  This could be talking about training someone that is young i.e., an adult that is new to the word or your own child who is young physically and bringing them along gently in the way they should go. Proverbs 29:15 &17 explain that we should correct or discipline our children or someone young in the word, but again this should be done tenderly.  Most of all, children need to be reassured that they are loved unconditionally in the same way Our Creator loves all of us unconditionally.  Remember our best actions are as filthy rags, so try to be loving as you instruct your physical children or those that are new to the word.

Colossians 3:21 and Ephesians 6:4 further explain that we should not provoke children to anger.  Indeed, we should control our temper for anger resides in the bosom of fools (Ecclesiastes 7:9).  Our Creator is no fool, and the adversary is likely the wrath of Yahweh. See Job 1 and 2 where it is clear the adversary has to get permission to unleash his anger.

Remember Paul notes in 1 Corinthians 7:14 that even if your spouse and children are unbelieving, they are set apart and Holy because of your faith. Therefore, do all things in love and constantly reassure your children or someone you are instructing about your unconditional love. Often small children get confused, as they may think being corrected means you do not love them.  They have to be constantly reassured that they are loved and it is just these particular behaviors or actions that need to be corrected.  In fact, once they understand that, it goes a long way towards their security.  Even a heathen takes care of their family (Matthew 5:43-48) therefore, how much more should the believer gently take care of his family. Furthermore, we are instructed to consider others better than ourselves, Philippians 2:3.

Thus, the admonition to not to boil a child in his mother’s milk may have a spiritual meaning. Meaning that taking the scriptures that are Holy and forcing them on young children or adults who are young in the word and turning them off to such an extent that they actually turn away from Our Creator and His teachings would be tragic.  In fact, we should do all things in love and edify one and another, especially those of the household of faith.

See the article on love published on 8/29/16 by Robert Bondurant on this website. If this article interests you, we suggest reading all the articles under “news” on the website (in reverse order), pray to Father Yahweh in the name of Yahweh Shua, and seriously consider taking the first step, which is baptism.

This bible verse is found in Deuteronomy 14:21, Exodus 23:19 and Exodus 34:26.  The meaning of these verses is a matter of debate. It could be that it was a Canaanite ritual, or simply that mother’s milk, which is meant to provide life, should not be used to destroy physical life.  Other meanings suggest the Canaanites used this as a fertility ritual and was further used to spread on their crops and vineyards.  Some rabbinical teachers in fact prohibit consuming dairy along with any kind of meat as complying with kosher law.

However, perhaps there is a spiritual meaning applicable to those raising children in the faith.  First Peter 2:2 notes that “as newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the word that ye may grow thereby.” In other words, milk is the teaching of the scriptures to a young person in the faith. Paul confirms this in Hebrews 5:12: “for when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of Yahweh and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat”. Matthew 20:25-28 and 2 Timothy 2:24 note that as teachers we should be servants and be gentle to all.

PASSING OF GEORGE GABLER

George Gabler Center Back Row

We were saddened to learn of the recent passing of George Gabler of kahalyahweh.net.  He was the first, that we know of, to publish well researched articles regarding the name of Yahweh Shua.  There were a few doctrinal differences between kahalyahweh.net and The Light of Yahweh Shua, but his material on the names was excellent and highly recommended.  (A few of his articles are available on our website, with his permission.) We are very grateful for his teaching as he set us on a better path to Yahweh’s truth.  He will be missed. 

THE THRONE ROOM OF OUR CREATOR

There are several descriptions of the Throne Room of our Creator in the scriptures.  We know these descriptions were written about our Creator who is the son of the Father, since no one has ever seen or heard the Father except the son (John 1:18, John 5:37, John 6:46).  Indeed, the son has been carrying out the plan of the Father from the very beginning, such as creating the angels, the physical world, and was the Yahweh of the old covenant, and was Melkizedek.  Abraham rejoiced to see and meet him (John 8:46).  He is the one that Moses was dealing with at the burning bush. He came in the flesh to take on the sin of the world and establish the new and better covenant.

Job 1 and 2 give a vision of the angels coming before our Creator, and further, Satan has to get permission to create any wrath against man or put evil thoughts into our heads or minds.  Thankfully, our Creator keeps a hedge about us with angels who are subservient to him in the same way that he is subservient to the father.

Isaiah 6 also provides a vision of the throne room which Isaiah saw. It involved angelic beings, one of whom used a live coal to touch Isaiah’s lips and purge his inquity and sin.  Similarly, our Creator, works with those that are called and chosen, Revelation 1, 2 and 3, so that we may ultimately be one of the 144,000 saints.  (For more understanding, read The Mystery of Consecration on our website.)

Ezekiel 1:1-28 and Revelation 4:1-11 give descriptions of Ezekiel’s vision of the throne room, as well as John’s vision of the throne room.  There are many different commentaries regarding the two throne rooms.

Some differences between Ezekiel’s vision, which was approximately 700 years prior to our Creator’s appearance in the flesh, i.e., the first Advent, and the Apostle John’s vision, which was much later.  Both descriptions by Ezekiel and John note that there are four beasts or creatures, and Ezekiel notes that each creature had four different faces which included a face of a man, a face of a lion, a face of an ox and a face of an eagle, Ezekiel 1:10, whereas John noted that each beast had a specific face.  The first beast had a face like a lion, the second beast had a face like an ox or calf, the third beast a face of man, and the fourth beast like a flying eagle, Revelation 4:7.  In addition, Ezekiel saw no visions of elders, whereas the Apostle John saw 24 elders, and seats and thrones in Revelation 4:4.  Also the angelic beings and the creatures in Ezekiel’s vision had four wings, Ezekiel 1:6, whereas the Apostle John’s vision showed that each beast had six wings, Revelation 4:8.  Thus it is possible that Ezekiel saw the living creatures or creation with only four wings as he was seeing the vision just prior to the Messiah’s appearance as a human approximately 4,000 years after Adam, whereas John was seeing the vision just prior to the return of our Creator approximately 6,000 years after Adam.  That is to say the four wings that Ezekiel saw may be a reference to the first Advent of our Creator approximately 4000 years after Adam, whereas the six wings that John saw may be a reference to his second Advent when he returns at the seventh trumpet, approximately 6,000 years from Adam.

Likewise, it appears that creation is being purified, as Ezekiel’s four beasts or creatures had four different faces, whereas John saw each beast or creature with only one face, which may suggest that there is a purification process going on.  Indeed, the first beast John saw had only one face which appeared like a lion, and it is well known that our Creator is the lion of the tribe of Judah, Revelation 5:5.  Likewise, it is noted by Paul that our Creator was perfected by the things he suffered in the flesh, Hebrews 5:8-10, and because he has suffered in the flesh he is better able to help us,  Hebrews 2:18.  The calf may reflect the fact that the animal kingdom is purified, as noted in Isaiah 11:6-10, in which all animals are safe.  Likewise, the third creature had a man’s face. People called in this 6,000-year time period who overcome have a chance of being a saint. Whereas those that overcome during the first 100-year period of the last great day, when the adversary is let out, have a chance to be part of the innumerable multitude. Those that never overcome are nonetheless purified and will live on the outside of the kingdom eternally, Revelation 22:15.  Finally the fourth creature, the flying eagle, seen by John,  may in fact point to the purification of angelic beings, including potentially the adversary and the fallen angels as Paul notes in Colossians 1:20.  Our Creator, having made peace through the blood of his beam  to reconcile all things to himself, whether they be things in earth or things in heaven,  suggest that everything including the angels, represented by the eagles, are going to be purified as well.

The 24 elders, referenced in Revelation, are likely referring to the 12 spiritual tribes of Revelation 7:1-8, as well as the 12 Apostles and a likely reference to the 144,000 saints that our Creator gathers at the seventh trumpet.

Also, John notes in Revelation 4:6, that before the throne is a sea of glass.  A multitude of people are described as waters in Revelation 17:15, and the raging waves of the sea foaming out their own shame in Jude 1:13 may be just the opposite or people that are sinning.  Therefore, the sea of glass is likely a nod to the innumerable multitude that overcome in the last great day, since this sea of glass is before the throne. This would not refer to those that failed to overcome in this life or at the last great day, as they would be outside the kingdom. 

Thus, our Creator has a perfect plan for everyone that has ever lived and none will be lost permanently.  All will be reconciled, which is the free gift of life, however, to be a saint you must overcome in this life and be chosen.  To be in the innumerable multitude you must overcome during the first 100 years of the Last Great Day, after the millennium when the adversary is let out. Nonetheless, our Father and our Creator have left nothing to chance as everything has been planned out in advance.  They have foreseen all our bad decisions, but even though we have been wrapped up in disobedience, they may have mercy on us (Romans11:32).  If this article interests you, consider reading all the articles under the news section of this website, and consider taking the first step.

WHEREVER THE CARCASS IS THE EAGLES WILL BE GATHERED

The above quote is from Matthew 24:28 and Luke 17:37. Many different commentaries on this scripture are available, but our Creator appears to be talking about the end of this age and the seventh trumpet when he returns to gather his 144,000 saints.  

In fact, Matthew 24:31 says, “he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”Psalm 34:7: the angel encamps around them that fear him, and delivereth them. Hebrews 1:13-14 says of the angels that they are “ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation.” Revelation 1:20 notes that the angels are looking over the ecclesia (or assembly) members that are being perfected. 

Exodus 19:4 our Creator told Moses that “you have seen what I did unto the Egyptians and how I bare you on eagles’ wings and brought you onto myself.”  Isaiah 63:9 notes the angel of his presence saved them.  In Revelation 12:14, “the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times and half a time from the face of the serpent.” My interpretation is that the assembly or saints will be taken to a place of safety in the last three and half years of this age likely by angels. Unfortunately, some of the assembly members will be martyred as they have been in the past, as noted in Revelation 6:9.  Thus the word carcass in Luke 17:37 and Matthew 24:28 could be referring to the assembly or body, and the eagles could be referring to the angels looking over the assembly and providing a hedge at our Creator’s direction. 

Revelation 11:3 notes that the two witnesses shall prophesy 1,260 days, which is exactly 42 months, (30 day months) in which the moon is not seen, thus darkness prevails. This is exactly 3 and a half years of 30-day months and it will be a difficult time for anyone alive at this point in history. Luke 21:36 states that we should pray always to be worthy to escape all these terrible things coming upon the end of this age (of the approximately  6,000 year plan of our Creator). Revelation 3:10 notes that if we keep his word, we can be kept from the hour of temptation. This is likely the last 3 and half years of this age. (Refer to our website article on the ages posted 10/27/16, titled, For ever or age abiding.)

One day with Yahweh Shua is equivalent to 1,000 years on earth.  One hour with our Creator is equivalent to 41.66 years on earth, switching a year for a month. One hour with our Creator is 42 months on earth,that is the hour of testing likely occurring  the last 3 and half years of the 42 months of darkness on this planet. Of course, this is only possible to those who have not denied his name, Revelation 3:8.  Thus it is essential to know our Creator’s current name. 

We suggest praying to the father, Yahweh, in the name of his resurrected son, Yahweh Shua, for truth. If you desire to learn more, we suggest reading the other articles under News on our website,. If you have questions, feel free to contact us before taking the first step..

THE DIVINE NAME

Due to unfounded Jewish fears of bringing upon themselves a possible retribution for breaking the third commandment, they began refusing to pronounce the divine name.  It became normal practice to substitute a title, “Lord” (Adonai) for the name Yahweh when reading aloud.  To indicate this replacement, the Masorites inserted the vowels from Adonai under the countenance of Yahweh resulting in a word, Yehovah, which came to be pronounced as Jehovah.  Scholars of the Renaissance period misunderstood the purpose of vowel pointing and began pronouncing the name as Jehovah.  This erroneous pronunciation became so common that many are still generally unwilling to accept the more correct pronunciation, Yahweh.  The reference to this is Appendix E, page 726, of the Old Testament study Bible Psalms, which is part of the complete Biblical Library, Copyright 1996 Springfield, Missouri USA.

This practice of substituting titles for the actual name led to Yahweh being found in the bible less and less.  Initially the word Yahweh was in the Bible nearly 7000 times, and by the time our Creator was in the flesh or incarnate, it was in the Bible less than 2000 times.  In fact, no language had the letter J until the last 500 years.   Is the family and personal name of the Creator and his Father important? What does the Bible say about the name?

“Is any sick among you?  Let him call for the elders of the ecclesia and let them pray over him, having anointed him with oil in the name of the Master,” (currently Yahweh Shua) James 5:14.  Our Creator says in John 16:23, “Verily, verily, I say unto you whatsoever you shall ask the Father in My name he will give you.”  Thus, we should pray to Yahweh the Father in the name of his Son, Yahweh Shua, for healing.

 This is just the tip of the iceberg.  Many other scriptures say that we are to give him glory, use his name, we are to dance to His name, lift our hands up to His name, we should bless His name, His name is our banner, we are to walk in His name, and we are to rejoice in His name.  His name alone is excellent, His name defends and helps us, His name endures forever, His name is great, His name is Yahweh.

The name Yahweh is the eternal name of the family and our Creator.  Luke 11:52 says “Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.” Our Creator’s father’s name is Yahweh, and the resurrected (inherited) name of the Messiah is Yahweh Shua. The name Yahweh is the key of knowledge and power.

If you find this interesting, pray to the Father Yahweh in the name of his resurrected Son, Yahweh Shua, for truth and read the scriptures regarding His name.
