we hope you have a happy happy Sabbath and rest very easy today that's what it's about is to keep it holy and to rest really it's that simple you know it's not legalism it's really love and just loving the Lord on his beautiful day that he has set apart for himself if we can ever get our minds wrapped around that that's pretty amazing that he has set aside one day a week for us to rest in him to be holy with him to be righteous to worship him to praise him to pray to intercede to Fellowship like we're doing now it's really a beautiful thing when you think about how he has orchestrated this one day my friends this one day a week all six days the rest of the six days are common but there's only one holy day a week and that is the Shabbat that is the Sabbath that he rested on that he doesn't need to rest okay so he gave us a great example of to rest on the Shabbat the one who does not need to rest he's wanting to fellowship with us on this one day forever you know just like we've discussed in the other scriptures in the videos we'll be celebrating the Shabbat forever and ever you can read that in Ezekiel 46 1 and also in Isaiah 66 Millennial Kingdom Ezekiel Isaiah he's speaking about eternity forever and ever we'll be celebrating the beautiful and holy Sabbath so thank you again for joining us we've got a great episode today for you with uh obviously this Shabbat scriptures but also we'll be going through the book of Ephesians we'll continue our journey in discovering what the Apostle Paul was really saying about the Torah or really saying about obedience compared to Grace and all of these beautiful things that he wrote about but we have to have the proper understanding of where he's coming from as we all know Paul was a Pharisee so he knew the Torah better than we will all know it you know so to speak learn from gambliel the tour scholar of the day he learned from him so he understood exactly what the Torah said he understood what the oral Traditions were as well because that was a part of it when you converted the Judaism back in those days or circumcision when someone says circumcision back in those days one would have to understand the written Torah and also the oral Torah as well for Judaism of the day in messiah's day Etc so Paul understood that he understood the difference in the written Torah and the oral Torah and then he got all this beautiful revelation of Mount Sinai which we discovered in the last Sabbath Chronicles the book of Galatians he went down to Sinai after his road to Damascus the episode there where he was born again the scales fell off his eyes all of these things he went straight to Mount Sinai as far as what he said in Galatians and then he got the revelation of the one new body the one new man the old Covenant versus the New Covenant uh how all these beautiful things work and he got a tremendous download then he went back to Damascus and then he went to see the disciples he learned from Peter Etc met with James yeshua's brother so he had this Revelation that the lord gave him the mystery as he calls it and we'll see that today but it's the mystery between the Jew and the Gentile but we have to understand where he's coming from so we can take the book of Galatians the book of Ephesians and all the other books that he speaks about the one new body the one new man how that operates and it's just really mind-boggling that we haven't wrapped ourselves around this understanding as a body of Believers you know the one new body and the one new man really isn't understanding what the one new body and the one new man is with the Jew and Gentile Believers under Yeshua uh Torah observant you know that's really what it's about and really what he was saying uh throughout his letters is of course we're not saved by doing the Commandments we're not saved by the Torah and all of these things of course not we're saved by the blood of the lamb but we should be keeping these things because we are saved with the blood of the lamb and those are his rules those are his instructions and regulations for the Kingdom of Israel and that will be implemented at the millennial Kingdom to where we will all be worshiping one way you know one Torah for the citizen and the stranger just like Exodus 12 49 says and also numbers 15 and Yeshua confirmed that and also the Apostle Paul confirmed that as well amongst all the other disciples so let's remember that as we go forward with Paul but first and foremost we want to give the proper respect to the Sabbath and again happy Sabbath to everybody shabbat shalom we'll go through a couple of scriptures that we can really again get into the understanding of how important the Shabbat is and we'll first start where um in the Ten Commandments uh we understood uh all of us understand the days of creation uh the six days he worked and on the seventh day he rested will Exodus in the Ten Commandments of Moses when he writes that he's just referring us back to the original Shabbat that the almighty Elohim rested on the father arrested on that day and he carries us back to that beautiful understanding so we'll begin with Exodus 20. again this is The Ten Commandments that we're speaking of right now this is the fourth Commandment uh is this Shabbat so it's very important to put it in its proper context that when people say that we don't have to keep the Sabbath then does that mean that I can break all the other Commandments as well can I go commit adultery can I go kill someone or murder someone can I keep Idols can I disrespect my parents of course we can't you know so we have to keep it in its proper context that of course this is the fourth Commandment so we can't keep one and not keep the others keep two of them not keep eight we've got to keep all ten of them to the best of our ability and then when we do make a mistake we do repent and then we try to do better and try to not do the same thing again but this is the fourth Commandment in the Ten Commandments in Exodus 28-11 remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy six days you shall labor and do all of your work but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God in it you shall do no work you nor your son your daughter your male servant your female servant your cattle nor your stranger who is within your Gates uh that's talking about Gentiles four in six days the Lord made the heavens and the Earth the sea and all that is in them and rested the seventh day therefore the Lord blessed the seventh day and hallowed it so important my friends to realize that and again put it in its proper context that if I can break the fourth Commandment then I can break all of them okay so when people say well you don't have to keep the Sabbath and okay well I guess I can go murder and all these things that we just spoke about disrespect my parents covet you know uh false testimony and all these things that it tells us not to do so again we if we have to keep the fourth Commandment or if we have to keep the other Commandments we have to keep the fourth Commandment as well to keep it in its proper context and when you look at this beautiful scripture he says remember the Sabbath day it should be right here my friends I mean we should be looking forward to the Sabbath every week we need to look forward to the Sabbath like I always say most of the time when I get to the Sabbath I just want to crash into it because of the weekday and the work day and all these things so it should be our goal every week what's the goal of the week is Sabbath okay that's our goal is to get to the beautiful rest day of the Shabbat that we can fellowship with the Lord fellowship with friends family uh whatever it may be so remember the Sabbath day right here my friends and right there in my mind and in the heart that's what the New Covenant is and to keep it holy six days you shall labor and do all your work but we should rest on the seventh and keep it holy no work for anyone that's really around us you know so to speak we don't want to put the burden on those uh people as well and then he clarifies it again Moses does in verse 11 7 he says for in the six days the Lord made the heavens and the Earth the sea and all that is in them but he rested on the seventh day so he's reverting us back again to the almighty God resting on this day he hallowed it he only hallowed one day and that is the seventh day all the other days are common other than the seventh day Sabbath uh from the way that the Lord looks at it because he hallowed that one day so it's so important to remember of the Ten Commandments of course but this is the fourth Commandment and what's so interesting about the number four when you look at it is it's creative works okay this is his creation okay you look at the number four you break it down you have three plus one okay well we know what three means and then plus one means that it's their creative Works elohim's creative Works uh is the Sabbath okay so it's so important to recognize how numbers work in the Bible as well and there's a reason that the Lord ordered the Commandments the way that he did and the fourth Commandment is his Crea creative Works he's the one who established it not man he has established this elohim's creative works three plus one equals four so that's a good way uh to recognize this beautiful commandment uh as well uh in Deuteronomy this is the last book of the beautiful Torah Moses reiterates how important it is in Deuteronomy 5 12-15 he says this he says observe the sabbath day to keep it holy as the Lord your God commanded you six days you shall labor and do all your work but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God in it you shall do no work and he released he lists all the people who should not work and then verse 15 it says and remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt and the Lord your God brought you out from there by Mighty Hand by an outstretched arm therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day so this is so important remember he chose the children of Israel okay to come be a light to the Gentiles as well and we have to understand that this is for all of us the Sabbath is for mankind whoever loves the god of Israel whoever wants to be a part of the god of Abraham Isaac Jacob and David Yeshua this is for them to celebrate as well oil because like I said we'll be celebrating it for a thousand years every Shabbat okay in the millennial Kingdom and we'll be celebrating it forever after that throughout all of eternity that's how important this beautiful day is okay uh but look at what he says he says observe it observe the sabbath we gotta guard it we got to keep it and we've got to observe it or to do it okay that's what it's throughout the prophets throughout Moses that's what throughout Paul we're going to read that today in Ephesians he wants us to be obedient to his beautiful Commandments that lets him know if we love him according to John 14 15 if you love me you'll keep my Commandments my friends as we all know these are his Commandments that he spoke out at Mount Sinai talking about Yeshua the Messiah so this is his word he is the word of God that's why it's written on his thigh when he comes back in Revelation 19 look at on his thigh he has the word of God on his thigh okay that is Torah my friends like I said before for whenever we read the word of God in the Holy Bible whether it's in the Old Testament or the New Testament it's referring back to the Torah because whenever the New Testament writers said that or wrote that they were writing the New Testament so of course they were speaking about the word of God in the Torah because that was the word out of his mouth so it's so important to understand that of course the entire Bible is the word of God it was all breathed upon by the Holy Spirit of course it was but literally speaking when they're speaking about the word of God that's the word out of his mouth that he spoke about and that is the Torah and they're leading us back to that understanding of how to worship him with the proper instructions that he has given us now let's go to Isaiah 56 1-8 this is a very important chapter for the Gentile Believers or the Christians to understand as well how important uh the Sabbath is to observe and to keep and to obviously to do but we'll read this and just check out the way the prophet was writing this to the Gentiles at a certain point thus says the Lord keep Justice and do righteousness for my salvation is about to come and my righteousness to be revealed blessed is the man who does this and the son of man who lays hold on it okay so he's saying blessed is the man mankind not just the Jewish people just Mankind in general but blessed is the man who does this and the son of man who lays hold on it who keeps from defiling the Sabbath and keeps his hand from doing any evil I mean this is amazing do not let the son of the Foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord speaks saying the Lord has utterly separated me from his people this is so important my friends we spoke about this uh in the last video on the ninth of of that is a division when anyone wants to divide the people in the Commonwealth of Israel this is what the prophet is saying do not let the son of the Foreigner the Gentile who has joined himself to the Lord think about modern day Christianity Today with Sunday Sabbath speak saying the Lord has utterly separated me from his people nor let the unoch say here I am a dry tree for thus says the Lord to the Enochs who keep my Sabbath and chose and chooses what pleases me and hold fast my Covenant even to them I will give in my house and within my walls a place in a name better than the sons and daughters I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off I mean look at this beautiful blessing ladies and gentlemen and it's not just for the Jewish people this is for Jew or Gentile mankind who loves the god of Israel who joins themselves to him and then look at verse number six this is talking about the Gentile Believers this is beautiful also the sons of the Foreigner the Gentile who joins themselves to the Lord to serve him and to love the name of the Lord and to be his servants everyone who holds fast my Covenant even them I will bring to my Holy Mountain and I make them joyful In My House of Prayer I mean this is amazing blessing my friends their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar Ezekiel 40-48 for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations we've read that in the New Testament as well the Lord God who gathers the outcast of Israel says yet I will gather to them others Gentiles besides those who who are gathered to him and that is such a beautiful thing so my friends we have to understand that he's always wanted mankind to worship him one way and that Sabbath day has never changed you know like we've discussed before like we've discussed in the first episode of the Sabbath Chronicles if you haven't checked that out uh we lay the foundation of why the Sabbath is so important so we have to realize that as Gentile believers who were born Gentiles grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel we're going to see that today in Ephesians 2 it's very important to realize that that there is no division in the body of Christ okay the way that he looks at it now Mankind we have divided okay uh human beings but he has always wanted the one new body the one new man throughout the scriptures you can read it from Genesis to Revelation he's always wanted mankind all of mankind Jew and Gentile to worship him one way in one way only and eventually when he returns uh he's going to make us worship one way there's going to be only one way to worship and that's going to be according to the Torah okay in Isaiah 2 in Micah 4 confirmed that so it's so important to recognize that now when we move forward to the New Testament scriptures we'll see the same understanding uh Mark 2 27-28 this is Yeshua talking to us and look at what he says he says the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath therefore the son of man is also Lord of the Sabbath he wants you to be United with him my friends okay Sabbath was made for man not the other way around and he's wanting us to be holy he wants us to rest in him and there's a difference in resting on the Sabbath and resting in him on the Sabbath with worship with praise with reading scriptures with whatever it may be and then look at first John 5 3 it says for this is the love of God that we keep his commandments so remember that as we go forward of my friends with the Apostle Paul Paul will not contradict John okay John will not contradict Paul you know Peter will not contradict Paul Paul will not contradict Peter you know Jude all of them okay so we have to understand that they're not going to contradict themselves with the word of God this is the love of God that we keep his Commandments and his Commandments are certainly not burdensome this is so beautiful and I think we can all agree that the Apostle John had a good idea of what was required by Yeshua he was the Beloved uh disciple so we have to realize that as we go forward into especially Paul that uh the love of God is that we keep his Commandments Yeshua said in John 14 15 if you love me that's a contingency if you love me keep my Commandments okay and especially like we said before he didn't say everybody's going to love him because not everybody's going to keep the commandments so he puts a contingency out there that if we he knows how we love him if we keep his Commandments and it's really a beautiful thing okay and uh then we'll uh this will be the final verse that we'll look at on the Sabbath Chronicles before we get into uh the book of Ephesians but look at what Moses said and this is so important to recognize at the very end of Moses's uh life basically this is one of the last things that he wrote is a Deuteronomy 30 11-14 and look at what he says he said this commandment Torah which I commend you today is not too difficult for you nor is it too far off it is not in heaven that you should say who will send it to heaven for us and bring it to us that we may hear it and do it nor is it beyond the sea that one should say who will go over the sea for us and bring it to us that we may hear it and do it but the word is very near in your mouth and in your heart that you may do it so important to realize this my friends a couple good points is look at what he ends with he says but the word is very near to you in your mouth and in your heart that's the New Covenant okay if you read Moses very carefully especially in the book of Deuteronomy Deuteronomy which is where the Torah portions are right now until we end the feast days in the book of Deuteronomy this is so important this is the New Covenant he's he's trying to get people to understand put it on your heart put it on your heart that's the whole point of what Moses was trying to do of course the people did not do that and so that's why the Prophet Jeremiah came and said hey I'm going to have a renewed Covenant for you guys a New Covenant but it's going to be on your mind and it's going to be in your heart this time of the Torah that's what he's always wanted us to do but look at what he says right before that in verse 13 He says who will go over the sea for us and do it remember what we discovered in the Book of James James says don't be a hearer only be a doer of the word as well so and he also says yeshua's brother says this as well that he says do be a doer of it as well and then he says show me your faith without works and I'll show you my faith with works okay and we're going to get into that today because that kind of goes into Ephesians uh two and what Paul was saying uh with works and how all of that works with Grace and I think it'll bring more of a Clarity to the conversation uh now that if you've been with us through these episodes with James with Peter with John we know what they said about the Commandments to do them it's very clear and Paul says the same thing now that we look at it through that lens I believe it'll be very uh very clear all right and then uh the last one I promise this is the last one before we go to the book of Ephesians I forgot I had this one as well but this is a beautiful uh to read Hebrews 4 9-13 and this is what it says it says so there remains a Sabbath a Shabbat keeping for who for God's people so if you are God's people the Shabbat is for you to keep still and and will be forever and ever according to the prophets so there remains a Shabbat keeping for God's people for the one who has entered God's rest has also rested from his own works as God did from his therefore let us do our best to enter that rest so that no one will fall short because of the same kind of Disobedience so remember that as we go into the book of Ephesians because Paul is going to hit on this as well about Disobedience and then look what the writer says see the word of God is alive talking about Torah first it is at work and it is sharper than any double-edged sword it cuts right through a soul where Soul Meets spirit and Joints meet marrow and it is quick to judge the inner Reflections and attitudes of the heart where the heart is all about the heart before God nothing created is hidden but all things are naked and open to the eyes of him to whom we must all render an account so again the writer tells us and most people believe that this was the Apostle Paul that wrote the book of Hebrew whatever the case may be the writer did put the emphasis on the Sabbath so you have it in the Torah you have it in the prophets you have it in the gospels you have it in the New Testament writings you have it everywhere you know it's a very consistent message my friends and that's what we try to uh apply here is that it's very consistent and if we can get everyone to really kind of look at it and to read the Bible for themselves and see how consistent it is it's going to blow you away and I'm sure everybody's done that that is on the channel but it's really a consistent message throughout nothing has ever changed it's just we're not saved by the Torah we're not saved by The Works we're saved by the blood of the Lamb Yeshua the Messiah led by the Holy Spirit to do the instructions of the Lord you know to keep the Sabbath to not kill someone to not murder to not commit adultery to not I you know idolize to keep respectful to our parents you know do not covet I mean these are beautiful things these are how you how you become a good person you know according to God's standards not according to our standards I mean we can have a Sabbath in our Sabbath any time Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday or Sundays my side oh well that's our Sabbath okay that's their Sabbath but we have to understand God has one Sabbath and that has never changed it's the seventh day of the week today we know that as Saturday but it is the seventh day of the week and nothing has ever changed that in the New Testament as well Yeshua didn't change that and of course Paul did not have that Authority as well or any other Apostles either so it's so important to put the proper context with the scriptures and realize that he's the same he's the same people like to divide the word of God uh in Era okay and that's what they do is they divide it because they misunderstand what the scripture says about appropriately dividing the word of God it's not being divided into sections God's the same he's never changed okay he's a consistent God okay one Torah forever okay and it's up for us to understand that as we go forward and of course Yeshua has saved us from the curse of the Torah not the Torah itself the curse of it and also he Paul says that our faith establishes the Torah okay in Romans 3 31. so all of these scriptures are very important I personally can't understand why people can take him out well I do understand because they if it's the theology right they don't have to do their Commandments you know but for me it's very simple the way Paul's talking if we understand Torah in the backbone of it and understand the nature of God I mean God does not make any mistakes he is perfect the Torah is perfect because it came out of his mouth and he is perfect okay we're the ones who are imperfect we're the ones who are sinners and we have to have the blood of the Lamb to cleanse us whenever we make a mistake and then we try to aim for the target of the Torah the instructions of the Torah it's really beautiful and it's not legalism it's called obedience it's called the love of God and the love of God like John said is for us to keep the Commandments and the Commandments are not burdensome so I know everybody's with us on this channel with that it never hurts to go through these things to get that deeper conviction that we need in that solid foundation that the Sabbath is the Sabbath it's the holiest day okay it's the Sabbath day it's very important to really understand that and it's a covenant it shows the Covenant between us and the Lord okay it's not just for the Jewish person it's for mankind who loves the god of Israel okay and the king of Israel who is uh Yeshua the Messiah so now as we go forward we'll go into the book of Ephesians it's a beautiful book I'm sure everybody's familiar with the book of Ephesians and uh what was going on at that time and what Paul was trying to tell us about if we can look at it through the lens of uh keeping his Commandments and understanding the Commonwealth of Israel and understanding that we're all one you know ikad that's what he wants you know just like uh the father Son and the Holy Spirit are ikad okay and I heard a great story today from David about that a great confirmation totally amazing not that either one of us needed that but he just shared a great confirmation and it's totally amazing and not to get off on that but I tell people you know definitely pay attention because the Lord will show you things with Creation with animals with birds with whatever and whatever you may be studying he'll get your attention on that and I'll let um maybe David can come on sometime and tell us these things because I don't want to take that from him that he's the one who received it so it's totally amazing I tell people it's just amazing if we pay attention to what God will reveal to all of us to confirm something that we've been praying about petitioning about it's just amazing through whatever he wants to do the Holy Spirit can work through anything right I think we can all agree with that so however he wants to work is just he's going to work if we're paying attention and things like that so it's so beautiful and such inspirational today I was like man that's totally amazing I mean that makes sense to me you know so if we're in tune with these things you know some people might look at us as pretty strange people and I think we probably or I am I'm not going to speak for anybody else I know I'm a pretty strange person but that's a good thing I want to be strange in the Lord so if that's strange then I don't want to be right right so if that makes any sense but let's look at the book of Ephesians and let's go through this and we'll go through it very careful I'm using the complete Jewish version okay the Jewish Bible okay and I'll try to clarify where there's certain words that I'll go with the English uh the new Kings James or whatever I'll explain that to you but just absolutely go through the with an open mind like we've never read it before because if we can look at especially Ephesians 1 when wherever we read this I mean I read it a couple of times before the video because it's just amazing you know Ephesians 1 is a feast day chapter okay and most people don't realize that but it is a feast day chapter and he's summarizing everything with the ultimate understanding of the ultimate Redemption okay and that Redemption my friends is on Yom Kippur the day of atonement but we have to understand God's calendar we have to understand the feast days to understand ultimately the indebtedness of what Paul was trying to say I mean we can get the uh the basic layer okay this like we said before the snorkeling layer and there's nothing wrong with that to get the snorkeling layer of Paul and we have to do that we have to first give the snorkeling layer or the surface layer and then we got to go deep okay and get the scuba diving uh understanding of it if that makes sense because that's what it is now you can get the basic layers and it's beautiful but uh if you want to get the real interpretation of it that goes deep we have to understand it from a tour perspective especially the calendar and the feast days so it's going to be amazing when you read this and look at it from the feast days and I hope it makes sense because it's really what it's all about is there's the feast days is what the Redemption plan is when the covenants on the calendar it's really a beautiful thing so uh let's look through the book and we'll go through the first chapter of course and then we'll go through all six chapters but let's look at it in that understanding of a feast day understanding especially with Ephesians 1. uh I do want to thank Mr David Chen for these beautiful slides again that's him blowing the shofar right there uh with with it with everything so y'all have seen David on there so I'm just kidding around but anyhow uh thank you David for these beautiful slides as always thank you so much all right so in Ephesians 1 we'll begin Paul his Hebrew name is or Paul a missionary or missionary of Messiah Yeshua through the will of God to the holy ones who are at Ephesus and the faithful in Messiah Yeshua grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah so I love the way Paul opens up all the letters it's very important to realize who he's speaking to he is speaking to the holy ones who are at Ephesus uh the church in the uh the the Ephesian church that's who he's speaking of and he says grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah blessed be the God and father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Messiah even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world that we might that we would be holy and without defect before him in love having predestined us for adoption as children through Yeshua the Messiah to himself according to the good pleasure of his desire to the praise of the glory of his grace by which he freely gave us favor in the Beloved so we'll stop right there and like I always say with Paul you know Paul will continue to write you know comma after comma after comma and we have to really breaking down uh within the commas to really get the full understanding of him and let him finish his thought is the main thing so I wanted to stop right here because he has a period there so whenever there's a period with Paul we'll stop and then we'll kind of break down the verses and then we'll go forward to verse 7. but look at what he says blessed be the god of our father Lord Yeshua the Messiah who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing so for those who are searching for their spiritual gifts dreams Visions uh tongues whatever prophecy whatever the gifts are please petition these things you know petition especially Ephesians 1 and Ephesians 6 is a very important to pray for your spiritual blessings and your eyes to be open to these things that he wants us to do but he's given us every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Yeshua even as he's chose all of us me and you in him where before the foundation of the world is such an important concept to understand my friend is nothing has ever changed even before this world was created there was always Nissan 14 why because he was the lamb I'm slain before the foundation of the world that is amazing I mean this when you really think about it go back before even the creation there's always been Torah okay there has there's always been Nissan 14 he was the lamb slain before the foundation of the world we were in him before the foundation of the world so that gives a lot of great understanding that we he knew us before the foundation of the world and we had to come down upon this Earth to do our part in his kingdom and then go back to be reunited into that beautiful Heavenly uh place you know the holy place that we came from I mean it's really phenomenal to really meditate and Ponder upon but think about that he knew us before he chose us in him so we were already Believers okay before we came on this Earth and then we had to rebirth and then yes we had to make the decision to confirm him and also to hold hand in hand with him on this beautiful Journey that we're on it's really amazing but he chose us in him before the foundation of relatively amazing that we will be holy and without defect before him in love and look at this having predestined us good pleasure of his desire Amen to the praise of the glory of his grace amen by which he freely gave us favor blessing Grace in The Beloved so amazing so now this is where we have to understand the feast days to really get the full in-depth understanding of what Paul's really saying to us about the return of the Messiah and how that works with our salvation but also with the ultimate Redemption okay so keep that in mind there's salvation Passover and then there's an ultimate Redemption on the Feast of Yom Kippur the day of atonement those are six months apart if you're not familiar with the feast days uh the Passover passovers in the spring Yom Kippur is in the fall six months apart Passover is the individual salvation Yom Kippur is the National salvation for corporate Israel which includes you and me and everyone who believes in Yeshua the Messiah Jew and Gentile okay so there's no difference so we have to understand it from that mindset when we read verse 7 through 11 I believe that he's talking about Passover we're sealed by the Holy Spirit to Yom Kippur when the purchase possession is fully redeemed and that will be on the Feast of Yom Kippur so we have to understand that and understand again that Paul is coming from a Pharisee standpoint saved by the grace of the blood of the Lamb okay but he was still an unders he understood the feast days he understood the calendar of course he did there's no other calendar in the Holy Bible to go by so of course he understood the calendar he understood the feast days the covenants and how all of these things work with Jew and Gentile that's the reason he was in Mount Sinai for that period of time to receive all this beautiful revelation so let's look at this in verse 7 and this is again we have to understand it from a feast day standpoint calendar standpoint in him Yeshua we have our Redemption through his blood Passover the Forgiveness of our trespasses Passover according to the riches of his grace which he made to abound towards us in all wisdom and Prudence making known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him to an administration of the fullness of the times to sum up all things in Messiah the things in the heavens and the things on the earth in him so I'll break this down for you he's talking about Passover in the previous uh scroll uh obviously he you're saying you're seeing what he's all the signs of the Forgiveness of sins the Redemption through his blood uh also eternal life uh he talks about all these beautiful things and then he says this in the next verse to the administration of the fullness of times or the in your English Bible it's going to say the completion of the fullness of times that is his second coming events that is day seven the day of the Lord to sum up all things in Messiah that will be from the seventh day to the eighth day my friends so we have to understand that the things in the heavens and the things that are on the earth in him and then look at what he says in verse 11 we were also assigned an inheritance in him having been preordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the Council of his will to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory we who had before hoped in Messiah and then look at what he says in verse 13 in him you also having heard the word of Truth what's the word of the truth that's Yeshua but also the Torah the good news of your salvation Yeshua with the Torah in him having also believed you were sealed with the promise of the holy spirit so now he's telling us just like with Passover he's still speaking of Passover forgiveness of sins eternal life the grace and now you're sealed with the promise of the holy spirit that was on Shabba oat okay who is the Pledge of our inheritance and then look at what he says unto or until in the English Bible but on this one it says to the Redemption of God's Own I'm sorry to God's Own possession to the praise of his glory in the English Bible you'll see it like this until the purchased treasured possession is redeemed okay that's how it will say there this is just a complete Jewish Bible version and what he's saying that you are saved own Passover okay the blood of the Lamb the Forgiveness of sins eternal life the grace all these beautiful things you're sealed by the precious Holy Spirit and then on the that's when all of Israel okay Romans 11 all of Israel will be saved on the day of atonement Yom Kippur Jew and Gentile one new body one new man it's really that beautiful but we have to understand it from a feast day standpoint or Ephesians 1 will not make uh the indebtedness of it well we will not understand what Paul is truly saying is we are all saved by the blood of the Lamb eternal life forgiveness of sins sealed with the blood of the silled with the precious Holy Spirit until until just like he says until the administration of the fullness of the times the completion the sum of all things in Messiah that's the seventh day the day of the Lord on Ford it will not be before that because he's the one who's going to bring back all these things the reason institution of all these things as it says in the book of Acts you know until that time comes so we have to read Ephesians 1 from a feast day standpoint and now we'll read it one more time and uh I'll try not to stop in between it so we can maybe get a better understanding of it blessed be the God and our father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly places in Messiah even as he the world that we should be holy or would be holy and without defect before him in love having predestined us for adoption as children through Yeshua of Beloved in him Passover we have Redemption through his blood the Forgiveness of our trespasses according to the riches of his grace which he made to abound towards us in all wisdom and Prudence making known us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him times or the completion of the times to sum up all things in Messiah that is Yom Kippur that is the day of atonement when he truly fully redeems the nation of Israel and we are included in that the Kingdom of Israel the Commonwealth of Israel the things in the heavens and the things that are in the earth in him in verse 11 it says we were also assigned an inheritance the abrahamic Covenant in him having been fortained uh preordained according to the purpose of him who does all things after the counsel of his will to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory we who had before hoped in Messiah in him you also having heard the word of the truth the Torah with Yeshua the good news of your salvation Yeshua including the Torah in whom having also believed Holy Spirit who is a pledge of our inheritance okay he's the pledge of our inheritance when do we get that inheritance that inheritance is the second coming the abrahamic Covenant the allotment of the tribes the allotment of the land that's the inheritance remember in the Prophet Daniel go rest Daniel go your way and you will rise at the end to receive your inheritance is what he says in the last verse of Daniel 12 is really beautiful because Daniel was trying to ask for all this understanding and the angel said go your way you know uh this is really not for you to understand in a way in a nice way he said that to go your way and you will rise up to receive your inheritance so that's what he's speaking of but my friends at all is on Yom Kippur Paul is giving you a timeline between Passover we're sealed forgiveness of sins all these things eternal life on Passover individual salvation and then we get to Yom Kippur that's when the purchase treasured possession will be redeemed we will receive our inheritance the Jewish people as well of course and to the Redemption of God's Own possession to the praise of his glory so I hope that makes sense and spend some time with this and most people will have a new King James version or more of an English Bible if you will and you'll see it you will see the completion of the fullness of times he makes a timeline between Passover and the Feast of Yom Kippur but we have to understand God's calendar to understand uh fully uh what Paul was trying to tell all of us in verse 15 it says for this cause I also having heard of the faith in the Lord Yeshua which is amongst you and the love which you have towards all the holy ones he's talking to the church at Ephesus don't cease to give thanks for you making mention of you in my prayers that the god of Our Lord Yeshua the Messiah the father of Glory may give to you a spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of him having the eyes of your hearts enlightened that you may know that what is the hope of his calling and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the Holy ones and what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe according to that working of the strength of his might which he worked in Messiah when he raised him from the dead and made him sit to at the right hand in the Heavenly places far above all authority rule power Dominion in every name that is named not only in this age but also in that which is to come okay so that is a mouthful remember he did not stop from verse 15 into verse 22 it was just a comma after a comma and that's why I say we have to reading and let him finish his thought and then let's go back and let's look at see if what Paul is truly saying so in verse 15 and I'll I'll stop in between here now but as like I said as you can see from verse 15 to verse 22 it's one big paragraph you know he just kept kept on going so let's see what he says so he says for this cause I also having heard of the faith in the Lord Yeshua which is amongst you and the love which you have towards all the holy ones don't cease to give thanks for you making mention of you in my prayers he's talking about he's talking to the Church of Ephesus and the people in verse 17 it says that the god of Our Lord Yeshua the Messiah the father of Glory may give you a spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of him how do we know the knowledge of him the knowledge of him is in the Torah and also in the first coming in the gospel accounts the gospel accounts is going to confirm the Torah because he's going to lead you to the Torah just like he did in Matthew 5 and everywhere else in the in the scriptures okay so we have to realize uh he's going to confirm what he told Moses on Mount Sinai for the people the first coming events or the gospel accounts will confirm what he told to Moses that's why I say the Torah is the gospel the gospel is the Torah because all of the events of the Gospel were ordained in the beautiful Torah the Passover unleavened bread first fruits and Shabba oat it's really beautiful that's the knowledge of him my friends is the instructions of the Lord is the Torah and then of course the prophets then of course the Psalms then of course the gospel counts and of course of course the New Testament writings it's all the word of God we all know that but specifically literally when he says that the word of God or the knowledge of God first and foremost comes from the beautiful Torah in verse 18 He says having the eyes of your hearts again the New Covenant is on the heart the Torah on the heart in the mind that's the New Covenant having the eyes of your hearts enlightened that you may know what is the hope of his calling and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance and the holy ones and what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe according to what working of the strength of his might which he worked in Yeshua Messiah when he raised him from the dead and made him to sit at the right hand his right hand in the Heavenly places let me stop there because I know he continues but when he says made him to sit at his right hand in the Heavenly places remember in Isaiah 59 verse 16 his own arm right arm his own arm brought him salvation to him okay so he sent we have to understand it's really an amazing thing they're all ikad Yeshua the father and the Holy Spirit iqad and when Isaiah says that the Lord I mean it's totally amazing and as I said in Isaiah 59 16 that his own arm brought salvation to him so it was a manifestation of the father Yeshua became mankind God God came flesh basically okay and we have to understand it like that and of course the holy spirit's involved in all of those things so we have to realize that his out of his own arm he brought salvation to the father okay because Yeshua means salvation so it's important to realize just like John says in the beginning was the word and the Word was God and the word I'm sorry the word was with God and the Word was God so we have to understand that that he is God he is God Isaiah 59 is the same thing that's what John John knew Isaiah 59 of course as my right arm brought salvation to me there was no intercessor so my right arm had to bring Salvation to me who's sitting at his right arm his right hand that's Yeshua so we have to realize that it's really amazing when you read the prophets and when you uh read the and that's Isaiah's version of the New Covenant in Isaiah 59 Isaiah 60 which is what Paul quoted in Romans 9 through 11. so those go together if you care to read those it's very amazing but his own he saw no intercessor among mankind that or mankind needed an intercessor excuse me in his own right arm brought salvation to him it's so important to realize that it still is amazing it's almost it's like a scientific I mean NASA and scientists and biologists you know would have a I mean think about that that's pretty amazing to really think about that uh for sure so as we continue forward okay let me see where I left off uh the right hand in Heavenly places far above all rule Authority power Dominion in every name that is named not only in this age but also in that which is to come he put all things in subjection under his feet and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly which is his body and the fullness of him who feels all and all this goes with First Corinthians 15 uh whenever Yeshua fulfills everything and establishes everything in the Torah Matthew 5. excuse me uh Matthew 5 he says that so he's got to put he's got to fulfill everything himself and then just like First Corinthians 15 says then at the end he's going to hand the keys to the father at the end of the millennial Kingdom they will become all in all we will become all in all and it goes back to verse 23. he feels all in all we all want to be ikad one day everybody's going to be a god with the father with the son and with the Holy Spirit he's always wanted that right now and the remnant does have that okay you and me the remnant and millions of other people we do have that right now but we need more to understand that it's one new body one new man you're going to see this as we get through the rest of the book of Ephesians and throughout his letters that's why I really don't understand why we're so divided because no one's listening to what Paul is saying Paul is saying come together under Christ okay Orthodox Judaism or whatever it may be uh modern day Christianity whatever we have to come together under Yeshua okay and remember it's got to be under Yeshua the one new body and the one new man Jew and Gentile uh the Jews that don't believe in Yeshua that's not what I'm talking about the modern day Christianity who is anti-Semitic that's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about the Jew and Gentile relationship under Christ the one new body the one new man okay and we need a lot Moore who has a understanding of the right understanding of what Paul is trying to say all right so now let's go to chapter two this is a very important chapter that we look at he's going to go through how we're saved by grace through faith but we are his workmanship and then he's going to go into the one new body and the one new man later on in Ephesians 2 and we talk about it all the time but we're going to read it in depth and really get the proper understanding of it it's really beautiful for both Jew and Gentile to understand what Paul was saying and he is confirming what the prophetic understanding of Jacob Crossing his hands to Joseph's children the one new body the one new man what we read with Isaiah 56 you know with uh Jew and Gentile mankind worshiping on the Sabbath there's all the two sticks that Ezekiel spoke about in Ezekiel 37 the the Torah the the prophets again God is very consistent he's always loved the Nations he's always loved the Gentiles but they have to come to the Commonwealth of Israel we cannot create a new religion we have to come to the Commonwealth of Israel both you and Gentile okay not just Gentiles Jews too Jews got to quit with the oral Traditions that Messiah has come against over and over Paul has come against those as well we have to realize that one new body one new man Jew Gentile under the Chief Cornerstone which is Yeshua the Messiah in Chapter 2 this is Paul saying he's saying you which is me and you were made alive when we were dead in transgressions and sins in which we walked accordingly to the course of this world according to the prince of the power of the air the spirit who now works in the children of Disobedience so we'll stop there since Paul took a break there we'll take a break there with the period but look at what he says he's talking about all of us we were all we're all Made Alive through the blood of the Lamb the precious Holy Spirit when we were dead in our trans world according to the power of the prince of the air the spirit who now works in the children of what of Disobedience so Paul's talking about Disobedience my friends very important we've got to be obedient to the word of God and that is Torah first and on throughout Yeshua confirms that and he's saying Disobedience so remember that as we're reading forward that he's speaking about the Disobedience of the people who disobeyed God verse 3 we also all once lived amongst them in the lust of our flesh doing the desires of the Flesh and of the mind and we're by Nature children of Wrath even as the rest but God being rich in Mercy for his great love which he had for which he loved us even when we were dead through our trespasses made us alive together with Messiah by Grace you have been saved and raised us up with him and made us to sit with him in the Heavenly places in Messiah Yeshua that in the ages to come he might show the exceedingly the exceeding Riches of his grace and kindness towards us in Yeshua Messiah and then look at what he says for by Grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God not of works that no one should boast for we are his workmanship created in Messiah Yeshua for good works which God prepared before we walk we would walk in them this is amazing when we look at the scripture this is where a lot of people do take Paul out of context because it says you were saved by grace through faith and not of works so that any man should boast right and then it goes and say we are his workmanship so uh this is what we got to tie in James with this whether James says don't be hearers only be doers of the word okay James says also show me your faith without works I'll show you Faith with works this is exactly what the Apostle Paul is saying right here the same thing just a different way if we understand where he's coming from okay because he's saying you're saved by grace through faith not a Works we're not saved by Good Works we're not saved by the Torah we're not saved by Commandments we're not saved by any of that okay is what he's saying but since you are saved by grace through faith he's saying to be his workmanship to do good works okay is what he continues to say that's exactly what James was saying uh in the Book of James yeshua's brother is he's saying do the good works okay with your faith show me your Works without bait I'll show you my works with faith is what he said in the Book of James but he's telling you to keep the Commandments you're not saved by them you're not saved by doing good works you're not saved by anything because just like Paul says should any of us boast okay that's all that he's saying is we're not saved by anything we're saved by one thing the blood of the Lamb that's it the blood of the Lamb Yeshua Jesus that is all we're saved by since we are he's telling you to be his workmanship well if we're going to do good works and be his workmanship then we've got to understand Torah we've got to celebrate the Sabbath we got a fellowship with him on the things that he The Obedience this is what he was talking about the Disobedience of the people before so we have to take him in context my friends it's just the same go read James go read James and go read uh this right here and I promise you it's going to be the same message they're not going to contradict each other I promise you they're not Paul I just went about it a different way and it is confusing sometimes to people people because he does comma comma comma comma and we have to read him throughout but he is not saying for you to be saved by grace and go do your own thing he is not saying that whatsoever actually he's saying do not do that because you would be according to the children that are disobedient in verse number two so we've got to take him in his proper context that he is saying you're saved by grace through faith and since you are now go be his workmanship worship him celebrate him the right way according to the Torah and then go do whatever your gifts are you know with whatever he wants you to do with the kingdom that's really it and uh it's really nothing more nothing less and then James is going to confirm that Peter's going to confirm that what are we read in John first John 5 3 they're not burdensome the Commandments that's the love of God I mean we've got to Overlay Paul with uh Peter with James with John and you will get the better interpretation of what Paul was actually saying because he is a Pharisee he's very smart his writings are very eloquent a very intelligent and we have to really break him down within the commas even though I try to just go to the periods it's tough sometimes because it's you know a lot of information that he's given so to me it makes proper sense when we overlay the Apostle Paul with John with Peter with also uh uh forget one of them uh who am I forgetting I'm forgetting somebody James John and Peter right so James John and Peter you've got to Overlay Paul with that understanding and just like he says in verse 8 for by Grace we have all been saved through the blood of the Lamb thank God through our faith in that not of ourselves none of our works not of my not of gifts not of anything we're saved by the blood of the Lamb it is a gift it is the gift of God Yeshua is thank God not of works that no one should boast all he is saying there is your Works do not give you salvation he's not saying not to do any good works you know he's saying your Works don't save you the Torah does not save you none of these things save you but the blood of the Lamb then he continues for we are his workmanship created in Messiah Yeshua for good works go read the book of James which God prepared before that we would walk in them that we would walk in there not should we walk in there we will walk in them you know so he makes a very clear understanding of it very powerful and then here we go with the one new body and the one new man this is so important if you've never read this in this context or this lens of the one new body the one new man Jew and Gentile coming together this is exactly what Paul was telling us in verse 11 it says therefore remember that once you talking about those who are Gentiles you Gentiles In the Flesh who are called uncircumcision by what is called circumcision in the flesh made by hands that you were at that time separate separated from Messiah alienated from the Commonwealth of Israel very important strangers from the covenants of Promise very important having no hope and without God in the world I mean how depressing is that when you read that I mean that's pretty depressing when you think about it as a gentile not having Yeshua it's depressing when you read what Paul says so look at this he says you will once Gentiles in the flesh called uncircumcision you were separated from Messiah Yeshua you were alienated from where the Commonwealth of Israel okay not anything else the Commonwealth of Israel is the church ladies and gentlemen it is the church when someone says the church it's really the Commonwealth of Israel you can call it the church God the assembly whatever you want to call it but it's the Commonwealth of Israel and then he says You Were Strangers we Gentiles Were Strangers from the covenants of promise okay that's plural that's not just the New Covenant that's the abrahamic the davidic and the New Covenant those God's Plan of Salvation those three covenants are so important having no hope and without God in the world I mean that's very important to understand but now in Messiah Yeshua you were once far off are now made or made near in the blood of Yeshua Messiah for he is our peace who made both one and broke down the middle Wall of Separation having abolished in his flesh the hostility the law of Commandments contained in ordinances that he might create in himself one new man of the two making peace and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross having killed the hostility through it okay so we'll stop right there since he stopped but let's look at this again he's telling us as Gentiles this is who he's speaking to he was the Apostle to the Gentiles he's speaking to the the Ephesian Church okay the church at Ephesus and look at what he says that we were once alienated from the Commonwealth of Israel or the Kingdom of Israel and We Were Strangers from the covenants of Promise which is God's Plan of Salvation that abrahamic the davidic and the New Covenant remember he says covenants of promise okay that's Pearl he's not just talking about the New Covenant only he's talking about abrahamic davidic and New Covenant and the Gentiles have no hope and without God in the world and then look at what he says in verse 13 but now in Messiah Yeshua you were once far off Gentiles are now made near in the blood of Yeshua by the by the blood you are saved through faith Grace for he is our peace and has made both one ikad okay one new body one new man and broke down the middle of Separation having abolished in his flesh the hostility the law of commit Commandments containing ordinances now that's not talking about the law that's not talking about the Torah that's talking about the dogmas that's talking about the oral Traditions so when you read this in um an English Bible also other Bibles as well it will say dogmas on some of them okay so that separates the word of God the Torah from the oral traditions of the ordinances of mankind okay so you have to read him in context he's not saying about the Commandments of God he's saying the ordinances the man-made traditions and the middle Wall of Separation we have to understand where he's coming from as well back in his day Gentiles were only allowed think about it I mean in in his day think about Paul's a Pharisee of course Gentiles could not come but to a certain point in the temple okay so that's what he was talking about he's torn down that wall of separation come on in Gentiles come on into the temple come on into there's no more middle wall separation between us he's abolished that hostility between the two and the oral traditions in the ordinances okay not the Torah itself because you're going to continue to read that he would contradict himself okay if uh of what he's about to say that he might create in himself talking about Yeshua one new man of the two Jew and Gentile making Shalom making peace and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross having killed the hostility through it he wants one new body one new man not two ways to worship one way to worship okay verse 17 he came and preached peace to you who were far off and to those who were near for through him we both have our have our access in one Spirit Holy Spirit to the father so then you are no longer strangers and foreigners talking about Gentiles but you are fellow citizens with the Holy ones and of the household of God being built on the foundation of the missionaries and the prophets Messiah Yeshua himself being the Chief Cornerstone in whom the whole building fitted together grows into a holy Temple in the Lord in whom you have also built together for a habitation of God in the spirit so that is a mouthful you know to really understand of course but let's go back and we'll pick it up where we left off uh talking about the oral Traditions the dogmas the separation how Gentiles weren't allowed to a certain point in the temple uh and things like that but he's broken that down remember at his crucifixion uh when he was crucified the veil was torn okay it was torn that's what Paul was referring to her to as well so we have to understand where he's coming from what events were going on at that day how the Jew and Gentile relationship worked at that time uh okay and not right now but 2 000 years ago we need to understand where he's coming from 19 then you Gentiles Believers are no longer strangers and foreigners but you are fellow citizens with the Holy ones of the household of God Paul Ephesians 2 11 through uh however 11-22 this section of Ephesians goes perfectly with Exodus 12. if you go read Exodus 12 and Ephesians 2 you will see a beautiful understanding in Exodus 12 he talks about you know the citizens and the strangers the Jews and the Gentiles citizens Jews strangers Gentiles he talks about Exodus 12 they want to keep the Passover etc etc and then he says in verse 49 there's one Torah for the citizen and the stranger okay one Torah that's it there's only one way to worship for citizen and stranger who loves Yeshua okay so important Paul's telling you that you are no longer a stranger because of the blood of the Lamb you see what I'm saying in Exodus 12 there was a separation because we didn't have the blood of the lam am okay you had just uh the Jewish people and then the sojourners the city uh the Gentiles would be if they want to be a part of Israel they had to obey Israel just like what Exodus 12 says over and over numbers 15 Etc but what Paul is saying that you're no longer a stranger Gentiles now you're just like the firstborn just like Jacob said with Crossing his hands to Joseph's children in Egypt they were half Egyptian he said your firstborn is just like Simeon and Reuben or Reuben and Simeon in the proper order he's telling you he's giving you a prophetic foreshadow of the Cross he crossed his hands and hey we're all one we're all one no Jew no Gentile no slave no freed no male no female no don't take that little today okay there is male and female on this Earth spiritually speaking he's saying there's no separation okay we went through that in the book of Galatians there's no separation between Jew and Gentile according to Yeshua no mankind has separated Jewish Gentile but God looks looks at all of us as one as a God the one new body the one new man this is what he's talking about he wants us to be one on the one Torah no oral traditions on either side follow the ways to worship on God in the Holy Bible is what he's talking about and uh so it's very important to realize that Paul hit on the one new body the one new mind or wrote about it the one new body the one new mind or one new body one new man I'm sorry not mine one well we should be of the same mind as well but one new body one new man he went on that Ephesians Galatians Corinthians Romans all throughout Romans 11 Ephesians 2 Galatians 3 who kept emphasizing to all of the churches including us today that there's no division in the body of Christ it's one it's ikad one new body one new man under Yeshua and that's what Paul continues to say here is uh look at what Paul continues to say in verse 20 being built he's talking about the one new body the one new man being missionaries and who the prophets okay Moses was a prophet everybody the biblical prophets we know Jeremiah Isaiah Ezekiel Etc the disciples Paul Prophet uh John the Revelator Prophet Messiah himself being the Chief building fitted together grows into a holy Temple in the Lord okay you were also built together for a habitation of God in the spirit in one Spirit the one new body uh the one new man holy spirit remember Ezekiel 36 says he's going to put a new spirit within them he's going to wash them clean and put a new spirit Holy Spirit within them you can't be enjoyed with the Holy Spirit until you receive Yeshua of the Messiah okay so he's going to wash them clean at the end they're going to be re-grafted back in the ones who are not already grafted in because there's plenty of Jewish Believers out there but the corporate Nation overall are not and uh they're going to be a third of them will be grafted back in just like Romans 11 says they can be grafted back in okay if they believe in Yeshua just like we can be cut out of it if we don't continue with the word of God as well Romans 11 is very important with the one new body one new man as well that's why again I completely don't understand how we're so divided you know Jew and Gentile we're so divided you know you know we can't be divided we've got to under Yeshua we've got to come to the proper theology the proper eschatology the proper ways to worship according to the Holy Bible and both sides we have to lower our egos to understand if we're in Era in any sort of way okay and The Holy Bible is going to speak for itself you know and it's up for us to understand uh what he is trying to say to all of us okay so now we go to chapter three uh and one more thing before we move to chapter three is just really remember my friends is Ephesians 2 goes with Exodus 12. if you read those two together you'll see what Paul's really saying that there's no more division okay there's no more division with the blood of the Lamb no more division okay we're one we're a God you know but we have to obey because that's what he was speaking of in chapter one is Disobedience of the people as well so we have to realize he's talking about all of these things again one new body one new man Jew and Gentile under the blood of the Lamb we're saved by the blood of the Lamb through Grace by faith okay so that we can be good workmanship for him just like James says do nobody hears only be doers only show me your faith without works I'll show you my faith with Works uh faith without works is dead is what James says so we have to put them all together in the beautiful understanding of that is saved by the blood of the Lamb sealed by the precious Holy Spirit Torah observant and go do our part in God's kingdom that's really uh What uh the whole Bible is trying to tell all of us to do uh Jew and Gentile okay so chapter three uh we'll continue and this is what Paul is saying for this cause I Paul am the prisoner of Messiah Yeshua on behalf of you Gentiles if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which has was given me towards you how that by Revelation the mystery was made known to me at Mount Sinai as I wrote before in a few words by which when you read you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Messiah which in other Generations was not made known to the children of men as it has now been revealed to his holy missionaries and prophets in the spirit that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body and fellow partakers of his promise in Messiah Yeshua through the good news which I was made a servant according to the gift of that grace of God which was giving me according to the working of his power so this is very straightforward what Paul's saying I'll read it one more time but it's very straightforward he said he's the prisoner of Messiah Yeshua on behalf of the Gent ourselves to tell us all these beautiful Mysteries and understanding of the Commonwealth of Israel that he by Revelation the mystery was made known to him at Mount Sinai Galatians he went to Mount Sinai after the road to Damascus experience and then look at what he says to understand the mystery of Messiah it's the mystery the Jew and Gentile relationship the one new body one new man is a mystery and unfortunately today it's still a mystery because people aren't reading and really obeying what Paul is trying to tell all of us Jew and Gentile Believers to come together as he cod as one to worship the right way to serve him all together as one remember in the book of Acts it reminds me of so many times in the very beginning of the book of Acts it says the everybody was on the same Accord on one Accord everybody had one mind and that was for the glory of God for the kingdom of God you know their money they sold everything they put it into one treasury to be used for the glory of God really that's totally amazing when you think about it they came together as one and that's what he's wanting us to do is go back to that moment from Shava oh the original Shabba oat when the Holy Spirit was given and come together like they were with one new body one new man worshiping uh all together all right and I'm not sure where I left off but which other Generations made known to the children of men revealed to the holy missionaries and prophets in the spirit and then he confirms it he says the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body and fellow partakers of his promise in Messiah Yeshua through the good news he's trying to tell all of us that we are fellow heirs to the Jewish people too the Jewish people need to realize we're heirs as well you know we are the same there's no no partiality with God you know I think Paul says that here in this letter uh when we get to the father chapters and then verse 8 it says to me the very least of all holy ones was this Grace given to Proclaim to the Gentiles The unsearchful Riches of Messiah and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Yeshua the Messiah that's another important thing all things were through Yeshua John 1 as well all things you through Yeshua in verse 10 to the intent that through I'm sorry to the intent that now through the Assembly of the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in The Heavenly places according to the Eternal purpose which he accomplished in Messiah Yeshua our Lord in him we have boldness and access and confidence uh excessive confidence through our faith in him therefore I ask you that you may not lose heart at my troubles for which for you which are your glory so Paul is telling us that basically he was ordained obviously to be the Apostle to the Gentiles to explain all these beautiful things and that he went through a lot of hardships you know to present these things obviously to all of the churches across there so we'll read it one more time just for the clarity of it but it says to me the very least of all holy ones talking about Paul was this Grace given to Proclaim to the Gentiles The unsearchical Riches of Messiah and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden and God who created all things through Yeshua the Messiah to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God and access and confidence through our faith in him therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you for you which are your glory in verse 14 it says for this cause I bow my knees to the father of our Lord Yeshua of the Messiah from whom every family in heaven and on Earth is named that he would Grant you according to the riches of his glory that you may be strengthened with power through his spirit in the inner person that Messiah May dwell in your hearts New Covenant Jeremiah 31 in your heart and in your mind through faith to the end that you being rooted and grounded in love may be strengthened to comprehend with all the holy ones what is the width length and height and depth and to know messiah's love which surpasses knowledge that you may be filled with all the fullness of God Amen so we'll read that again for this calls Paul I bow my knees to the father of our Lord Yeshua from whom every family in heaven and on the earth is named that he would Grant you according to the riches of his glory that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit Holy Spirit in the inner person that Messiah May dwell in your hearts New Covenant through faith to that end that you being rooted and grounded in love may be strengthened to comprehend with all the holy ones what is the width length height and depth and to No messiah's Love which surpasses all knowledge that you may feel be filled with all the fullness of God the Holy Spirit the fullness of knowledge the fullness of wisdom the fullness of understanding ikad my friends it's all about icon one being one with the Lord ICA the Hebrew word for it that's what he has always wanted from the beginning until right now and to Forever is to be a cod with all of us father son Holy Spirit and all of the Saints you know ikad one one new body one new man now to him who is able to extinctly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in US to him be the glory in the assembly and in Messiah Yeshua to all generations forever and ever amen so now let's move to chapter four and Paul obviously is still speaking here he says I therefore the prisoner in the Lord beg you to walk worthily of the calling which you were called with all lowliness and humility with patience bearing with one another in love being eager to keep the unity of the spirit in the bond of Peace look at what he's saying he wants Unity unity all about Unity God has never won a division like we're seeing now uh right now he's never wanted that you know we're more divided than we've ever been he's always wanted Unity uh from the very beginning Genesis to right now on for through the letters of Paul through Yeshua obviously Peter James everybody says the same thing okay but Paul was given the mystery of the one new body and the one new man and it's very beautiful when you read the heart of Paul and obviously it comes from God Elohim look at what he's saying in verse 4 it says there is one body in one Spirit even as you also were caught in in one hope of your calling one Lord one faith Faith one immersion one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in us all that's amazing we'll read that again there is one body and one Spirit Holy Spirit one new body one new man one Faith one immersion one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in us all amen but to each one of us the grace was giving according to the measure of the gift of Messiah therefore he says when he ascended on high he led captivity captive and gave gifts to the people now this he ascended what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth into Abraham's bosom remember that he he who descended is the one who also ascended far above the heavens that he might fill all things remember First Corinthians 15 he's got to fill all things hands the keys to the father and we all become one in one all in all it's really beautiful when you read the latter part of First Corinthians 15 but I would just read the entire chapter it's really beautiful all right and he says he gave some to be a missionary he's talking about the Believers Jew and Gentile one new body one new man look at what he says he says he gave some to be a missionaries and some prophets some evangelists some Shepherds teachers for the perfecting of the Holy ones to the work of serving to the building up of the whole of the body of Messiah until we all attained to the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God to a full grown man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Messiah that we may no longer be children tossed back and forth and carried away with every wind of Doctrine okay by the trickery of men men made Traditions everybody so he's not telling you not to follow the Torah he's telling you do not do not follow man is what he's saying in craftness after the Wiles of era but speaking truth in love truth is the Torah we may grow up in all things into him who is the head Messiah from whom all the body being fitted admitted to together through that which is every joint supplies according to the working and measure of each individual part makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love so of course again that's a mindful to understand but we'll go back and break that down but Paul is telling you we're part of the one new body the one new man for us to use all of our individual gifts for the purpose of the body of the Messiah it goes in the First Corinthians you know 12-14 the spiritual gifts you know to understand those he's confirming that again in this letter but we'll look at it again and I'll read this through he gave some to be missionaries some prophets some evangelists some Shepherds and teachers again that goes into the spiritual gifts that's mentioned in Corinthians please go read that and then he says is all for the glory of God it all works together for all the body parts or for one body of Messiah for the perfecting of the Holy ones to the work of serving to the building up of the body of Messiah until we all everybody me and you Attain in the unity Unity again we see that word Unity UNIF unification is what he wants of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God to a full-grown man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Messiah that we may no longer be children we've got to grow up we've got to quit drinking milk we've got to eat some meat we've got to get in depth we can't be a snorkelers forever we got to be scuba divers remember that analogy we've got to go deep to get the full understanding of these beautiful things that Paul is speaking about that we may no longer be children tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of Doctrine what are you seeing right now every wind of Doctrine you know going around and everything's cool you know all everything's about Jesus no that is incorrect not everything is according to the word of God so everything cannot be about Yeshua if it's not according to the word of God we got we can't have different religions or different worships or different uh festivals it's one according to the body of Yeshua okay and that is the tour of my friends but Paul's telling us himself is do not be carried away with every wind of Doctrine you know by the trickery of man men made Traditions Constantine creating a new Sabbath creating festivals that are not a part of the Holy Bible creating a calendar that has tricked men as well to worship accordingly as well this is what Paul is speaking of in craftness after the Wiles of era and my friends like we've discussed before uh the worship days in modern day Christianity is an era and also the Jewish people the oral traditions on top of these things are in Era you know and we have to call it like it is but speaking truth what is truth Yeshua and the Torah okay you can't separate Yeshua and the Torah why is that he's the living Torah he's the way the truth and the life and that's what the Taurus called the way the truth and the life he is the living Torah all of the events that he was going to fulfill uh with his major feast days are in Leviticus 23 it's in the Torah that's the only ways you know so we have to understand him that he wants us to understand the truth of the word and the truth is the Torah the prophets the Psalms the New Testament writings obviously the gospels and not any man-made tradition because you go to the New Testament and you can't find any of these things with the way some people are worshiping and celebrating and it's really that's what Paul's speaking about is a we need to understand we need to grow up we cannot just continue to drink milk we have to grow up and eat meat okay and to understand the era of Doctrine okay every wind of Doctrine man-made Traditions uh Wiles of era is what he calls it but we've got to speak it in Truth we've got to speak it in Truth okay love uh obviously when we speak the truth try to do our best to do it in love to the best of our ability that we may grow up in all things who he is the head Yeshua the Messiah from whom all the body being fitted and knitted together through which every joint supplies according to the working and measure of each individual part making the body increase to the building up of itself in love again he's confirming back our spiritual gifts you can find those in First Corinthians 12-14 I believe it goes through those and he talks about it again that one new body one new man Christ is the Chief Cornerstone the head of it and all of us are doing our parts our individual Parts just like a human body is our arms our legs our mouth our ears our tongues you know our feet they all have a significant purpose for the body just as we all have our purposes for the body of Christ as well and we all come together with our spiritual gifts and it's a beautiful thing problem is is we need more people coming together than we already have Jew and Gentile under Christ one new body one new man Paul says that we've read that a couple times just in these few chapters he is his heart is for Jew and Gentile to come together worship the same way according to the scriptures and obviously that is the heart of the almighty God as well okay in verse 17 it says this I say therefore and testify in the Lord that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk in the futility of their mind being darkened in their understanding alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them because of the hardening of their hearts now that's a little bit different when you keep reading Paul from Ephesians 2 you keep reading him on and letting finish what he was really trying to tell the church at Ephesus we've got to understand we've got a reading throughout read all six chapters and that's why we've we've decided to do it this way is just continued reading because if we have any thoughts that we are not understanding he will clarify that if we keep reading it in its proper context if we're confused by what he's saying here just please keep reading and he will absolutely clarify for you because this really says what it says I mean this is really straightforward about Gentiles and to me uh speaking about modern day Christianity or Orthodox Judaism both both parties look at this there this I say therefore testifying the Lord that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles do not what did Jeremiah say Do not worship like the Gentiles in chapter 10 of Jeremiah okay same thing with Paul do not walk he's telling you just like the prophet did with Jeremiah to the Jewish people do not walk the way of the Gentiles is what the prophet said in chapter 10 of Jeremiah and this is what Paul's saying as well when you receive the blood of the Lamb my friends and you are indwelled by the power of the Holy Spirit your theology should change according to the Holy Bible that's it okay not according to mankind not according to anybody when you receive when you say yes and you become engaged to Yeshua the Messiah okay on this beautiful engagement process that we're on until we marry him then we have to understand the ways of worship we're in the Bible only for Jew and Gentile only the Bible okay anything else is a era okay in my opinion because man wants to replace God okay the Jewish people wanted to replace God the Gentiles want to replace God we know better you don't know better we know better that's what Jew and Gentile and Mankind has told God from the beginning and until now and I'm sure until the end when Yeshua comes back and corrects everybody okay he's going to come back and correct all of us because we've got to understand this concept of one new body one new man and we have failed Jew and Gentile all of us have failed the Lord and he has grieved the holy spirit is grieved he wants one because then like we said before there's no division no division in the body of Messiah and whenever someone tries to cause division they are in Era okay it's a Jew thing no you're dividing the body of Christ all the Gentiles aren't included no urinary as well so that's the bottom line is we've got to understand these things that both parties are an era because they're creating division okay for the Jewish people as a corporate Nation come to Yeshua and quit the oral Traditions okay they're following the Torah the written Torah but they're also adding to the Torah and they're also with the oral traditions and they're rejected Messiah for the Gentiles they believe in Yeshua beautiful that is the Cornerstone okay but we've got to quit with the man-made traditions of Easter Christmas Sunday Sabbath obviously Halloween that should even be a conversation but it is and then obviously yoga should be a conversation but it is all of these things are an era my friends all of them are and until we have a conversation with these things both parties and it's going to take someone with a large platform to do that to say hang on I mean what are we doing here Gentiles uh modern day Christianity and I say this in love I do I love everybody but it's just the facts modern day Christianity is not listening to Paul okay we're not because if we're listening to Paul we would not be having man-made traditions we wouldn't be so uh anti-semitic in the church okay because that's what uh replacement theology is it's indoctrination it's it's uh the hatred of the Jewish people basically is where uh replacement theology came out of so we have to realize that and come back to the way the first century Christians were one new body one new man instead of dividing and the next thing you know you've got about 50 000 different denominations uh out there and no one knows what's up you know so we have to realize what Paul's actually saying from a Jewish context and that's what he was 100 Jewish Benjamin Tribe of Benjamin we have to realize what he's saying and the labor he says but this is very straightforward my friends and I don't see how we could take this out of context this I say therefore this is Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles and testify in the Lord that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk please in the futility of their mind being darkened in their God because of the ignorance I mean that's strong words because of the ignorance that is in them because of the hardening of their hearts remember the New Covenant my friends piercing the heart the heart and the mind that's what it's always been we read it with Moses in Deuteronomy 5 earlier he wants the heart circumcised for his beautiful Commandments obviously through Yeshua the Messiah and worship him as one new body and one new man verse 19 it says they have they having become callous gave themselves up to the lust to work out uncleanness with greediness but you didn't learn much excuse me you didn't learn Messiah that way so he's he's telling you right there that there's people that believe in Messiah but they're worshiping the wrong way they become callous gave themselves up to lust to work out uncleanness with greediness and then look at verse 20 but you you didn't learn Messiah that way okay if indeed you heard him and were taught in him even as truth as in Yeshua that you put away as concerning your former way of life the old man that grows corrupt after the lust of Deceit and that you may be renewed in the spirit of your mind having put on the new man who is like the likeness of God who has been created in righteousness and Holiness in the true of the truth my friends this is so important for every one of us to really understand this what Paul is really saying it's very important look at what he's saying they have become callous gave themselves up to the lust the work of all in cleanliness with greediness but you didn't learn Messiah that way if indeed you heard him and were taught in him very important you got to hear him the right way and you got to be taught by him your Holy Spirit even as truth is in Yeshua that you put away and that means everything that means morally that means personally but also the ways to worship as well that you put away everything as concerning your okay falsehood and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind what did Paul say in Romans 12 2 don't be conformed to the world and the worldly Traditions but be renewed or be transformed by the renewal of Your Mind through the Holy Spirit he's confirming that again with us today Ephesians right here verse 23 be renewed in the spirit of your mind okay all the old stuff and that's personal morality all these things but also the ways to worship and put on the new man who is in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and Holiness of Truth amen therefore putting away all falsehood and that includes man-made Traditions speak truth each one with his neighbor for we are members of one another amen be angry but don't sin Don't Let the Sun Go Down on your wrath and don't let don't give place to the devil let him who stole still no more but rather let him labor producing with his hands something that is good that he may have something to give to him who is need who has need let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth but only what is good for building others up as the need may be for it may be for it may give Grace to those who fear those who hear I'm sorry don't grieve the holy spirit of God in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption very important let all bitterness wrath anger outcry and slander be put away from you with all malice and be kind to one another tenderhearted forgiving each other just as Messiah also forgave you so I'll go through here real quick it's very straightforward but we'll go through it real quick he wants to put away all falsehood get away all falsehood out of our and that includes if anything's trying to replace God's festivals and God's days then that is falsehood I think we can all agree with that okay so anything that wants to replace God's natural true beautiful feast days okay ordained uh that is falsehood okay I was trying to replace God okay so of course what I'm talking about with Sunday Sabbath Christmas Easter replacing God it's falsehood okay and that's just the truth and it says to speak truth each one of his neighbor which I hope we're all doing for we are members of one another the Commonwealth of Israel be angry and don't sin righteous anger is good outside of that it's not good so righteous anger but don't sin don't let the sun go down you know on the Wrath and don't give place to the devil don't steal you know rather labor all of these things but look at verse 29 it says let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth but only what is good for building up the others that who may be in need that it may give Grace to those who hear and then it says this and this is very important do not grieve the holy spirit of God which I believe that is going on right now because he wants us to be one he wants us to be ikad one you know not divided in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption remember what he said in Ephesians 1 that's why we have to read the entire letter together because Ephesians 1 he said that remember we went through Passover in Yom Kippur That season and that's what he's saying is that right there is whom you were sealed for the day of redemption when is that that is on the Feast of trumpets ultimately Yom Kippur that gets into the feast days and just look at it as one day really uh 10 days but I can explain that later is Feast of trumpets Yom Kippur is the final Victory but Feast of trumpets is when that day of redemption uh will come and then the final Victory Revelation 19 will be on the Feast of Yom Kippur so if I didn't explain that earlier that's really the Feast of trumpets is when he's returning that's the Redemption and then the ultimate corporate National Israel Redemption uh where he defeats the Antichrist and all of these things will be 10 days later on the Feast of Yom Kippur let all as God also a messiah forgave you so now let's go to chapter five it says be therefore imitators of God as beloved children Walk In Love even as Messiah also loved us and gave himself up for us and offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling fragrance but sexual immorality and all uncleanness or covetness let it not even be mentioned among you has become holy ones nor filthiness nor foolish talking nor jesting which are not appropriate but rather giving to of thanks know this for sure that no sexual immoral person or unclean person nor Covetous man who is an idolater has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Messiah and God so of course this is very straightforward what Paul is saying we need to be imitators of God we need to be christ-like we're called Christians right follow Christ unfortunately modern day Christianity is not following Christ with the ways of worship you know with the replacement theology Festival so we have to realize we got to follow God follow Christ be christ-like okay and uh like I said that means to follow him in the ways to worship as well uh as beloved children Walk In Love even as Messiah also loved us and gave himself up for us in an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling fragrance but sexual immorality and all uncleanness and Covenants uh let it not even be mentioned among you has become excuse me as becomes holy ones nor filthiness nor foolish talking nor jesting which are not appropriate but rather giving of thanks we all have to be very careful with our tongue even in kind of adjusting in a in a well we would consider would be a not whatever way is still against what God is saying so we've got to be very careful with some of the clean or uh borderline jokes that we make some of the talking and hey I've been guilty of that as well okay uh the foolish talking and it's not cursing or anything like that it's just a foolish talking jesting uh things that are not appropriate okay whatever that may be each person can identify that we have to be very careful with that know this for sure that no sexual moral person or unclean person nor a Covetous man or idolater has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Messiah and God very important for us to all understand that let no one deceive you with me with empty words for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of Disobedience so he's coming back around to his original understanding and thought of this letter of disobedience is what he said in chapter one in chapter five he's coming back around to that don't be deceived my friends that's what Yeshua said to the disciples the first thing that he said when they asked him to sign for the end of the age he says do not be deceived okay and uh the apostles saying the same thing is do not be deceived with your empty words for because or with empty words for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of Disobedience okay not obedience Disobedience therefore don't be partakers with them for okay don't be partakers of Disobedience okay so that's morality that's also ways of worship and that's really everything for you were once in darkness but now light in the Lord walk as children of light for the fruit of the spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and Truth proving what is well pleasing to the Lord having no fellowship with the unfruitful Deeds of Darkness but rather even reprove them for it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret but all things when they are approved are revealed by the light for everything that reveals is light therefore he says awake you who sleep and arise from the dead and Messiah will shine on you amen and amen and amen reminds me of the Prophet Daniel shine like the stars in heaven forever you know it's really amazing I think that's very self-explanatory there that we've got to walk as children of the light the fruit of the spirit which we're about to go through don't be a part of any unfruitful Deeds or evil Deeds but rather even reprove them okay so we need to understand what he's saying he's really confirming that we need to be the light of the world the salt of the earth we need to be the shot the light that shines into the darkness and to make help people understand to uh what we're talking about with the one new body the one new man Jew and Gentile coming together under Yeshua worshiping accordingly to the Holy Bible in verse 15 it says therefore watch watch carefully how you walk not as unwise but as wise Redeeming the time because the days are evil therefore don't be foolish but understand what the will of the Lord is very important the will of the Lord is what we've been talking about one new body one new man worshiping accordingly following his beautiful Commandments and there certainly as the Apostle John says not burdensome in first John 5 3 in verse 18 it says don't be drunken with wine and which is dissipation but be filled with the spirit Holy Spirit speaking to one another in Psalms and hymns and spiritual Psalms singing and making Melody into your heart to the Lord giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah of to God even the father subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Messiah very important watch carefully how we walk not as unwise but as wise Redeeming the time because the days are evil therefore don't be foolish but understand what the will of the Lord is don't be drunken with wine in which is dissipation about be filled with the Holy Spirit speaking to one another in Psalms hymns spiritual songs singing and making melody in our heart to the Lord all day long giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah to God even the father subjecting yourself to one another in the fear of Messiah Paul says to work out your salvation with fear and trembling does not seem to be miserable that saying to have the proper respect and heart posture to the father and the Son and the Holy Spirit we come with great reverence to them okay we've got to hold them in great reverence all right and now that's what he's really speaking of is we've got to have a healthy fear of the Lord and that is to obey him to have the wisdom knowledge and understanding that comes with fear of the Lord the healthy fear it says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom okay so when I say fear of the Lord a healthy fear okay reverence we hold him in great reverence okay we want to please him we want to follow him we are engaged to him okay so we want to get to know him through his Commandments get to know him through his ways of worship get to know him through these things as we Aliyah towards him towards the wedding of the Messiah in verse 22 it says wives be subject to your own husbands as to the Lord for the husband is the head of the wife as Messiah also is the head of us assembly being himself the savior of the body be as the assembly is subject to Messiah so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything husbands love your wives even as Messiah also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her that he might sanctify her having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing but that she should be holy talking about the bride should be holy and without defect so this is very interesting uh of course this is really the summation of all of it is husband and wives to love each other that's really what it is is to love each other each other and both parties have different gifts that the Lord's blessed us as male and female and that's it and to love each other and to do our part in that so we'll say that again as husband love your wives even as Messiah also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her that he might sanctify her think about the cross through the crown Journey the purification the sanctification that's part of it that he might sanctify all of us having cleansed Us by the washing of water with the word of God that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing but should be holy and without defect even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies he who loves his own wife loves himself for no man ever hated his own flesh but nourishes and cherishes it even as the Lord also does the assembly because we are members of his body the one new body the one new man of his Flesh and Bones amen for this cause amen will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife then the two will become one flesh this mystery is great but I speak concerning Messiah and the assembly nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself and let the wife see that she respects her husband so I think that's very self-explanatory for all of us when it all comes down it's about love you know love and respect each other husband wife Believers whoever it may be love love love that's what it's all about in its proper context so now we'll go to the final chapter of the book of Ephesians and he will culminate this in a very beautiful way and we'll go through this real quick as well but he finalizes the uh letter by saying this children obey your parents in the Lord for this is right honor your father and mother which is the first commandment with the promise that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth I think that's very straightforward for all of us you fathers don't provoke your children to wrath but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord that's very important so again if you read Paul throughout he's going to really clarify it more and this is what he says um excuse me I think I uh yes Skip One it says obey your parents in the Lord for this is right honor your father and your mother which is the first commandment that it may be well with you and live long on the earth you fathers don't provoke your children to wrath but nurture them in what the discipline and the instruction of the Lord which is the Torah okay then that's what the Torah really means is instructions okay when you look at the pure definition of it okay it's really not translated into law it's really translated into the instructions of God and that's what Paul was hitting on so we have to understand these things to understand what really Paul's saying is he's saying the instructions of the lord we need to understand those in a distant way and that is the Torah my friends uh servants be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters with fear and trembling in singleness of your heart as to Messiah not in the way of service only when eyes are on you as men Pleasers but as Servants of Messiah doing the will of God from the heart which with Good Will doing serve says to the Lord and not to men knowing that whatever good thing each one does he will receive the same good again from the Lord whether he is bound or free so again if we work for someone we need to act like we're working for the Lord right we need to have that posture that we're working for the Lord and not to be bickering or complaining or things like that and vice versa as Paul will say here about the Masters you Masters do the same things to them and give up threatening knowing that he who is both their master and yours is in heaven and that there is no partiality with him there you go there's no partiality with God Paul tells you right there finally be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against The Wiles of the devil for our wrestling is not against flesh and blood but against the principalities against the powers against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the Heavenly places therefore put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day and having done all to stand this is so amazing it's called the armor of God as we all are familiar with this right here the armor of God is what we've got to code ourselves every day in my friend because the days are evil just like Paul said the days are wicked and if they were Wicked in his time they're certainly Wicked in our time just on steroids you know with social media and all of these things but we'll read this again finally be strong in the Lord my brethren in the strength of his might put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against The Wiles of the devil for our wrestling is not against flesh and blood but against principalities Powers the world's rulers of Darkness of this age and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the Heavenly place cases that's why we fight our battles up there and not on Earth because if you fight your battles in the heavens okay and the courts in heaven then the verdicts can be manifested on the earth and you will have the favor okay if we try to fight him on this Earth we will fail most of the time okay because it's a physical or Earthly War we need to fight our battles in the heavenlies okay it's a spiritual war just like Paul is saying I've seen so many times where whatever the circumstance may be myself or friends that I've prayed with that you see these breakthroughs once the proper understanding comes through once you protect yourself with the body of armor you start fighting your battles in heaven quoting the word of God In Prayer on the petitions that you're having two or three okay at least two or three it'll establish the matter in the course of Heaven just like the Bible says in Deuteronomy 19 15 and also in Corinthians two or three Witnesses establishes a matter okay so that's why when we pray the word of God we use scriptures the sword of the spirit which we're about to read we use the sword of the spirit in the heavens okay there's nothing wrong with our prayers but the word of God is where the power is okay not us it's the word of God that has the power no speaking the word of God out remember hey you speak it out okay that's where the power is just like Yeshua did when he was tempted what did he say it is written man should not live by bread alone it is written you shall not tempt the Lord your God it is written you know he said it three times and every time he quoted the Torah every time he quoted the Torah with that and of course we can quote the entire word of God of course but he put the emphasis on the Torah okay is what I'm trying to say and we have to understand that the original revelation of the Torah is the foundation of our faith because that's where the gospel was ordained if that makes any sense the gospel was ordained in the Torah Leviticus 23 and throughout the holy scriptures of the Torah is that's where his that's where it is that's where it was ordained so of course the gospel was the tour and the tour is the gospel because you can't separate them okay so again it's dividing the word of God you cannot divide the word of God people take it out of context what the scripture is about properly dividing the word of God it's not talking about dividing it into this uh dividing the word you don't divide the word of God you cannot divide it you know or you would be an era because it's the same throughout so I hope that makes sense but he's talking about the word of God but just remember to go to the prayer in the courts of heaven with the word of God not on Earth the word of God for all of us to remember and I promise you you'll see breakthroughs breakthroughs and breakthroughs on the appointed time that God has for you okay so now let's look at uh the next the next verse and he's talking about the armor of God still he says stand therefore having the utility belt of Truth the Beck the Buckle of Truth okay buckled around your waist having put on the breastplate of righteousness having fitted your feet with the preparation of the good news of Peace above all taking the should of faith which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one so he put the emphasis above all taking that show to Faith it goes back to Ephesians 2 you're saved by grace through faith so that no one should boast hmm he's going back to the faith is the strongest one of all of these because above all take the helmet of salvation okay I'm sorry above all taking up the shield of Faith which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one and take the helmet of salvation my friends and the sword of the spirit which is the word of God with all power and request praying at all times in the spirit and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and request for all the holy ones this is so important to wrap our heads around stand there for my friends having the utility belt of Truth the good news of Peace Above All My Friends taking up the should of Faith which you will be able to quench all of the fiery darts of the wicked one and look at what he says take the helmet of salvation and finally the sword of the spirit and look at what he says which is the word of God and what does that do with all prayer and request praying at all times in the spirit okay through the word of God through the sword of the spirit is what he's saying he's petitioned all of us to quote the word of God in the heavenlies that's what he's saying take the sword of the spirit which is the word of God with all prayer and request praying at all times in the spirit he's petitioning us to pray the word of God in the heavens and being watchful to this end and all perseverance and requests for all the holy ones pray for me that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth to make known with boldness The Mystery of the good news for which I am an ambassador in change that I may speak boldly as I ought to speak but that you also may know my Affairs how I am doing I think I can't really pronounce that uh the Beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord will make known to you all things I have sent him for you for this very purpose that you may know our state and that he may Comfort your hearts peace be to you Brothers love with Faith from God the father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah Grace be with all those who love our Lord Yeshua the Messiah with uncorruptable love very important uncorruptful love amen and amen and amen everybody so my friends that is the book of Ephesians I hope that's been very helpful for folks out there again there's so much more in-depth understanding of the book of Ephesians but remember we're just trying to get the understanding of the one new body the one new man Grace Torah old Covenant New Covenant we're trying to get the understanding of what Paul was actually saying to us and he's saying the same thing that is mentioned throughout the entire Holy Bible is if you love God okay the god of Israel okay the king of Israel who is Yeshua follow the Commandments okay you're not saved by them you're not saved by the Torah you're not saved by The Commandments you're not saved about charity you're not saved about doing good works you're saved by the blood of the Lamb that is it okay by Grace you have been saved by grace through faith you have been saved not of works but since you are saved by grace through faith just like Paul continues to say you are his workmanship to do good works and that goes along with James that goes along with Peter that goes along with John perfectly okay James says to be a not only a hearer but a doer of the word the word of God the Torah first okay and then he says also show me your faith without works and I'll show you my faith with works okay faith without works is dead is what James is saying which it goes directly with perfectly what Paul is saying in Ephesians 2 you're saved by grace through faith and since you are you are his workmanship to do good works just like James was saying as well so my friends it's really to me very a kosher if you will when you look at Peter John James and also Paul now and you put everybody together you get the proper understanding of what Paul was truly really saying and I just like we all know so I hope that's been very helpful for everybody thank you again for joining us on this Shabbat it's been a couple hours I appreciate everybody staying with us for that I won't take a brief pause for worthy calls for about five minutes and I'll be back to go through the comments and questions that anybody may ask and I really appreciate everybody joining us if you're not if you don't stay with us thank you again for joining us for the Sabbath Chronicles may you have a great Sabbath a happy Sabbath shabbat shalom to you we love you and I hope you have a beautiful time and I will today and we will be back with you tomorrow a night and then also on Monday night as well so that's the next two videos for those who are getting off and I will be right back in about five minutes five to ten minutes and we'll go through these comments but shabbat shalom everybody thank you again for joining us and we'll be right back thank you is who cares Redemption Story the Lord is arriving with power and glory to fig trees apart for the King of Kings appears the heavens above sons of the light and Sons of the day sober and watch Walking his way the Lord is zealous Saturday 's okay good Ness whoever comes on the name of the law when we'll be saved all the time the whole side welcome back everybody thank you very much for staying with us after the short break hope everybody got a lot of inspiration out of the book of Ephesians and again there's so many different anointings in the book of Ephesians but we just wanted to stay with what we're trying to understand uh did Paul say the Torah was done away with that we don't have to follow it things like that and we've gone through Galatians and Ephesians and from what I personally read he has never said that he's just saying that we are not saved by The Works we're not saved by following the Torah we're not saved by The Commandments we're saved by the blood of Yeshua that's it and since we are saved by the blood of Yeshua then yes we should be good workmanship for him obviously that goes into the manner of worship also with all the different anointings that he's given all of us so the one new body and the one new man is so important to realize you know it's really near and dear to my heart and I'm sure it is to yours as well because guess what that's near and dear to God's heart and the holy spirit's heart and I know the Holy Spirit to a certain degree is uh he's grieved right now because we're so divided you know the Believers are so divided right now even amongst modern day Christianity you know Catholicism Protestants you know all these different denominations no one really agrees and uh to a certain degree no one's ever going to agree totally but the manner of worship you know the covenants the manner of worship the basics the Bible 101 I call it the calendar the feast days the covenants Bible 101 we should understand that and would have a better uh would have a better church right now would have a better one new body one new man because we'd all be a God would all be one and uh those things we have to be uh one we have to be a Cod so I know you guys are with me I really appreciate everybody joining us I hope you're having a great Sabbath wherever you may be uh Shabbat Shalom to

Shalom to you shabbat shalom to you Deborah thank you very much for joining us uh people are very busy today with Zoo meetings Bible studies and that's what Again part of the Shabbat is is uh studying the word of God praying and worshiping and fellowshipping and each videos and pinpoint them and that's what's so beautiful about the internet is you can bounce around from different uh sabbaths and or worshiper you know Sabbath fellowships and get all the uh inspiration that we need and shabbat shalom to you as well Karen thank you very much for joining us uh here from the United Kingdom the UK we hope all is well over in the UK thank you again for joining us Karen yeah just pay it uh people aren't familiar with that that's the Hebrew letter pay uh and we uh have fun with that again it's a very awesome letter and that means to pay is a to close one's mouth until we get the proper instruction and then Faye is to open the mouth so it's got two forms to it uh one to be silence get the instructions and then speak it out you know Faye you know pay is the first form Fey is the second form so yeah uh be uh pay pay it is what Catherine is saying and shabbat shalom to you Amy as well thank you very much for joining us and we really appreciate it and I think this is a a praise report uh this is beautiful I think for whatever reason my husband who has saved stopped going to church a few months ago today I was able to convince him to come with us to a Messianic synagogue amen well there you go you know leading by example is very important you know especially in a marriage either man or woman to lead by example you know because again we can't shove anything down anyone's throat and we don't want to we want them to receive it openly and uh on the appointed time after they see the example in this case of Catherine the husband joined the party you know and that's the first step you know so that's a beautiful thing all it takes is a first step that's wonderful you know so and then that transition comes with that you know because it seems like he left church now to a Messianic uh congregation it's going to be a lot different you know going into that so we pray for that Catherine we pray for you and your husband you know for that uh one new body that one new man understanding of coming together not YouTube but just him coming into that into that beautiful Commonwealth of Israel that Kingdom of Israel and it's really beautiful so I wish you the best for that congratulations and God bless you guys with that so thank you for sharing us uh with that yes it was such a blessing to have him beside me again I think he enjoyed being there too and I'm sure the rabbi was happy to see us together again amen and again you know any kind of a marriage you know out there you know that is beautiful Catherine congratulations that is so beautiful and again nothing's ever perfect but man over time and I've gotten to know Catherine uh on the channel and through emails and stuff and he's seeing her dedication to the Lord and I'm sure he is seeing and I'm just speaking out of my own understanding okay I'm not speaking for them but in my opinion I think he has seen Catherine's transformation through her journey and uh he's been he wants a part of that it says to make the Jews jealous you know and he's not Jewish but at the same time we're making people jealous okay it's not just the Jewish people it's also other people as well Paul says to make the Jews jealous for a certain reason okay but it's really making everybody jealous for the Purity okay the Purity okay the intimacy see of what we're all talking about through the cross to the crown Journey getting on God's calendar his feast days his new moons his sabbaths this is what it's about this is purification this is refinement this is intimacy this is the engagement party proceeding into the marriage if you will so congratulations Catherine to you and your husband and God bless you and may it continue to be the Revelation continue to Open the Eyes of all of us you know including uh the situation as well so congratulations laughs and here's another one this beautiful uh Deborah says this Hallelujah talking about Catherine and her praise report and guess what my husband said he wants to go get help for his issues amen and amen and amen again my friends this is coming from people I've met these ladies here over the year I think over this past year when I say a year from the Feast of trumpets to now which is almost uh you know 10 months I believe so I've gotten to know them a little bit and praise the Lord they've openly shared some things as well and now you're seeing the results of their prayers the results of them purifying the results of them refining the results of them doing their part and then look what happens then the husbands come along or vice versa the wives come along whatever the case may be in this case the husbands come along you know we men you know we work a little slower you know we're a little slow sometimes you know so I'm just kidding I'm not saying that towards Deborah or Catherine's husband I'm just making a joke but uh seriously they have seen the actions and the refinement and the walk uh in the spirit that Deborah and Catherine is doing okay and then look what happens over time it's not immediate okay but over months or over years or whatever the case may be days whatever look what happens there's this reconciliation coming along people starting to lower their pride okay lower my pride too we all have to they're lower it oh let me do this let me go to synagogue with you oh let me go get help for the things that I want to get help with I mean these are beautiful beautiful testimonies so congratulations uh Deborah congratulations Catherine and may God get all the glory and I think it's beautiful and uh we'll see what happens but I think that's beautiful thank you very much for being open with that and sharing that because it should give all of us including myself inspiration of what you know the process that we're doing you know getting more intimate with God nothing more nothing less not legalism not we have we want to get intimate with God we want to get we want to get as close to them as possible before we marry him and I know Deborah and Catherine has done that along with everybody else and I appreciate the praise reports because that's how it occurs is again just like Catherine said boom you know I'm sure she paid she was silenced and let her actions speak for themselves and then she's going to synagogue again that creates jealousy especially when a person and I'm not talking about their situations just in general when another person sees the glory or the goodness or the set of Partners of someone that they're married to and they see the transition in their lives they're going to want some of that I can promise you that okay it's a good thing they're going to want plenty of that and that's what's happening with Deborah and Catherine and I'm sure many other people as well but that is a testimony within itself of the Cross to the crown Journey again it's about the Holy Bible it's not about anything other than that the Holy Bible in the Torah the beautiful Commandments the all of these beautiful things feast days intimacy sabbaths new moons and look at the resort from two witnesses here that uh you're seeing movement on things that they obviously petitioned for because they're married to their husbands and so they petition these things I'm sure yeah I hope I'm not speaking out of line for either one of them but I'm sure they have they love them and they want to see them overcome or change or whatever the case may be and look what's happened you know for that so that's an awesome testimony Deborah and Catherine congratulations to both of you and may God have all of the glory so thank you very much for sharing double praise report that is wonderful Deborah I think God is tying lots of loose ends this year my niece has decided to take preparation classes to be baptized God is good amen and remember where we are uh everybody we're in this month of God of ABBA is God's you know anointing month if you will all of his months or his months but this is a special um this special anointing this month with the month of ab Abba and we have to realize that it's got the constellation of Leo the Lion of the tribaj Judah is very important and look at where we are in between this ninth day of of and tuba of where after the ninth day of off uh the anointing is it turns into an explosion of Joy an explosion of happiness and explosion of what you're seeing uh with the testimonies and things like that that's what it's about it's really amazing how God works and when you understand his seasons and his calendar and things like that it makes it a ton more special when these things happen and occur during the season of the anointing it's really phenomenal yes I wish all of you or I wish to thank all of you for gathering together today for Shabbat in akkad in Unity One Accord just like they were in the book of Acts amen uh Deborah amen cat I never ever thought I would see this day in my husband's life so God moved even when I had no faith um well I would think that uh in all due respect and love I think that you were a major part of that because of your actions and because of your humility and because of what Paul said you love your husband so I do I understand what you're saying but at the same time I know that uh your actions through of course the Holy Spirit was leading you in all of these things that your husband took notice of that and God moved his Spirit he moved him you know and that's a beautiful thing so I know Deborah's humble and I know that again we all know who got who gets the credit the Lord but again he uses vessels and he uses wives he uses husbands you know to get the other one wife or husband to understand so very beautiful and again congratulations God is full of surprises amen amen uh amen as well okay Loretta shabbat shalom to you good to see you as well I hope all's well shalat Shalom I just wanted to say how much I like going through the Bible like this reading of the word aloud and then a breaking down of it well I really appreciate it and thank you so much for joining us and all of your uh chats and emails as well Loretta we really appreciate it and it does that's why uh with Paul I like to read him throughout because uh group just like with chapter five it'll confirmed some things in chapter one it's just one letter we have to take the as uh we all know uh we have to take the chapter breaks out of it it's just one letter to the Ephesians so we just really if we can read it all together at one time so we get the full comprehension of what he's truly actually saying and again there's many other uh understandings of the book of Ephesians uh I was just hitting on what we're kind of discovering through this is how consistent God is through the Torah prophets Psalms gospels New Testament writers Peter James John Paul all of these beautiful men had the same message is to keep his Commandments you're not saved by them but keep the Commandments you're saved by the blood of lamb it's really beautiful so thank you for that Loretta I know it helps me to go through it and it really helps me to go through it online okay because when I read it with all of you I get a lot of inspiration from that with all of the subjects that we cross it's been amazing I was telling a friend on uh the other day or yesterday uh that I was like it's been amazing to go through the Journey online because I've never gone through uh the cross through the crown Journey online I've done it my private self with friends and family and all that but I've never done it online and I have learned a tremendous amount of uh in my mind knowledge and wisdom going through this with all of you you know because that's what happens and that's why it's really been a great blessing is because it's a Bible study that just keeps on going you know with all the Revelation that you guys get ladies and gents uh it's really beautiful you know so I thank God for that you know I really do I thank God because it's just the Revelation never ends and the more people that we have together talking about these things the more Revelation that comes and it's just totally phenomenal so uh I know what Loretta is saying and thank you very much for sharing that and I concur you know I stand as a witness with that it's very inspirational also revelatory as well with Revelation you know coming to all of us as really phenomenal so thank you Loretta I appreciate it uh Deborah shabbat shalom Loretta I agree amen amen and

will is his will and I know that he's going to bless you guys I know he is and again I do want to apologize to you about my comments earlier I didn't see that uh down the chat so thank you very much

hung which is hung a thousand Shields a thousand Generations Covenant with Abraham we are his set apart soldiers wearing elohim's armor amen beautiful thank you so much and I'm about to reread uh songs of song a song of songs again that's beautiful thank you so much uh Shabbat Shalom to you Thomas thank you very much for joining us my friend we hope all is well in the beautiful state of Mississippi all right I think I've gotten down to all of the comments um in the in the chat section and I really appreciate again everybody joining us what a powerful letter when we think about it what a powerful letter that the Apostle Paul wrote in the Revelation that he received I mean can you imagine you know going to Mount Sinai that's what he said in Galatians he went to Mount Sinai after his Damascus experience and received all of this beautiful revelation of the one new body the one new man the old Covenant to the New Covenant how faith and grace and the Torah work all together you know to understand these things and it's really beautiful he obviously hit on the relationship between a husband and a wife very interesting especially with the praise report from Catherine and also Deborah and we are with those who are mourning right now as well as we've discussed here earlier uh we are with those we Rejoice with those who Rejoice we mourn with those who mourn of course we do that's what the scriptures say and so I really appreciate everybody joining us today and I hope you've gotten the inspiration out from this beautiful letter of Paul I pray that you'll spend time with it you know remember to read Ephesians 1 from a feast day standpoint from the Passover understanding the Forgiveness of sins the everlasting life uh the blood of the Lamb that covers us all these beautiful things that Passover did for us and then we're sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption that day of redemption will be the Feast of trumpets with the resurrection but also 10 days later will be the final culmination of the war you know in Yom Kippur the day of atonement and I will go through that on the fall feast days to make it understand but we it's really the day of the Lord is really the Thousand Years or one day okay the the days a thousand years thousand years is a day but really it begins basically with the resurrection 10 days of war and then if that's when the ultimate Redemption will be is on Yom Kippur with the children of Israel or the nation of Israel will be redeemed that day the day of atonement but ten days before is the day of the Lord too where he returns and where he raptures or resurrects us so to speak and then we come with him on the 10 days so I'll go through that more when we get to the fall feast days how that works on the timeline with uh Salvation or with the resurrection also with the Redemption okay there's two different things the resurrection and then the ultimate redemptions 10 days later and we'll go through that very clear I hope when we get to the fall feast days but remember where we are my friends we've gotten less than 50 days now from the ninth day of our but we're going to the Feast of trumpets and it's 50 days from the ninth of off this should be off to that time and we're about to finish up to the halfway point of the month of which will be tuba of which is the day of love excuse me and we'll have that video for you Monday night uh with the tuba of so we were going to do a video uh tonight on the letter but uh with my schedule and I've got family in town so I just want to give them their proper respect of spending time with them this evening my nephews Etc so I'll probably have to postpone tonight's video till tomorrow night so we'll do a video tomorrow night Sunday night and Monday night is the next two videos that we'll do we will not do one tonight so I'll uh edit that and I'll revise that so just know that those who are planning on being with us tonight at nine o'clock for the next Hebrew letter zadi we'll be doing that tomorrow okay tomorrow night we'll do the Zodi and then um we'll do also the major signs of the end of the age on Tuesday night as well so I will be with you those those nights but uh just stay with us tomorrow night we'll be with you on the letter and then the next night Monday night we'll be with you on uh the major signs of the end of the age so we hope that you join us there and we'll go through those other series uh that we're doing we've got the Sabbath Chronicle series The Cross to the crown Journey which is the letters and then also we have the major signs at the end of the age and then we'll do something special for tuba Ave as well which is on I believe Tuesday as well so we'll be going through that as well so we've got three more videos coming in the next couple of days so we hope that you join us and be with us for this as we continue our journey from the cross to the crown the spiritual purification on God's Divine opponents like I said we're almost to the halfway point of of which we'll have a month and a half you know really to really Pierce into the Lord with purification remember next month the month of elul is the month of repentance so we're coming to that point of the repentance before the books are open on the Feast of trumpets for the Nations and for the individuals and they will be sealed on Yom Kippur uh 10 days later so we're at a very important time as we culminate the Journey To The Feast of trumpets remember last month up to Moose was eyesight this month is hearing and then we get to next month it's the month of repentance so God's trying to tell us you know with two of the three major things that we have with our ears and with our eyes the other ones with our mouth that we have to really guard those and understand you know what he's trying to tell us as we prepare again ourselves to meet him at the Feast of trumpets okay for all these beautiful anointings that we will get into so it's really beautiful of my friends when we look at how God has designed his calendar and we are in a very awesome time right now as the night of off turns into an explosion of Joy okay Happiness joy all these beautiful things tuba of is a beautiful time to really dive into that the day of love that he has orchestrated on his calendar as we continue on the journey from the cross to the crown so my friends thank you very much again for joining us today on this sabbath Chronicles we will be with you again tomorrow night at eight o'clock we'll be going through the next letter on the Hebrew left back that's in the book The devotional series of the book is called the zadi so we'll go through that and it's a very important letter it's got two forms to it and we'll go through the first form and just like we did with the pay in the FAE and the noon and the cough and all these other letters with double anointings or double letters we will see the same understanding humility first form exaltation the second form to do our will in God's kingdom it's really that beautiful my friends so I hope you stay with us for tomorrow night uh be with us tomorrow night at eight o'clock we'll go through that
