Some say "We are community of questioners" -
Do you want to know the answer?
There is only ONE. The answer to all our questions is:
Yeshua HaMashiach, ben Elohim.
Every human, even the Jew, is a sinner and needs GOD's SALVATION
to be saved.
Do you want to know the answer?
There is only ONE. The answer to all our questions is:
Yeshua HaMashiach, ben Elohim.
Every human, even the Jew, is a sinner and needs GOD's SALVATION
to be saved.
Salvation is not by works but by GOD's Grace through Faith
in the LORD Jesus Christ!
You have to repent and believe in the LORD Jesus Christ in order to get saved,
there is no other way!
Jew or Gentile, if you will not believe in the Name of the only begotten Son of God, you will be lost in HELL forever!
Read Yochanan 3:18. GOD speaks clear words about this, do not get fooled by people, even if they call themselves Rabbi an teach you otherwise!
Every time the Tanakh uses the word SALVATION, except when the word is impersonal, especially with Hebrew suffix meaning “my”, “thy” or “his”, it is the very same word: YESHUA.
Did you know that the Messiah was already here on earth?
It was more than 2009 years ago!
His name ist Jesus Christ or Yeshua HaMashiach, HE is Adonai Elohenu Yeshua HaMaschiach.
Jesus Christ is YHVH in the flesh. See Kolossaeus 2:9.
HE died for our sins, buried, and has been raised on the third day as prophecied in the Tanakh.
HE is alive! And HE sees you: Be'er LaChai Roi (Beresheet 16:13-14).
You can call upon HIS Name!
There is only one GOD, he revealed himself to us in three persons being ONE:
GOD (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).
So each person is GOD and there is an eternal full unity
between the three persons of GOD to be ONE GOD.
We call it the triunity of GOD. (Echad)
You may wonder why we speak out the name of the LORD our GOD.
For us believing in the LORD Jesus Christ (which is his name) -
we are not under Torah law anymore, because Jesus Christ fullfilled the Law and now HE became our righteousness.
We are now under the law of Christ.
GOD inspired the B'rit Chadashah in greek language,
so HIS name is Ἰησοῦς Χριστός which is transliterated
Jesus Christ or reverse-transliterated Yeshua HaMashiach in hebrew.
Even under the law of Mosheh you should call the name of GOD but not in vain! See Devarim 5:11.
I wont't say G'D or Hashem because our GOD, the GOD of Israel,
Adonai Yeshua HaMashiach, the LORD Jesus Christ,
the son of GOD, has a real name which i know now
(Read Ketuvim, Tehillim 2:12) and he told me in HIS Word
(and even HE quotes from Yoel 2:32):
_________________________________________________________________________________
Rhomaios 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
_________________________________________________________________________________
I cannot explain this but only understand it through believing -
because i believe in the LORD Jesus Christ - Adonai Elohenu Yeshua HaMaschiach; the Son of the living GOD!
HE is GOD came in the flesh but without sin.
GOD became man, fully human with flesh and blood (so as being human he could die),
the second Adam without sin, but HE also remains GOD,
so Yeshua is both GOD and perfect man without sin.
From his human perspective HE is ben David;
and even ben Yosef as it appears to the people.
But Yosef was not HIS real father because Jesus was begotten from the Holy Spirit, so his father is GOD. But he was born from the virgin Miryam, so in that way he had a human mother and as Yosef she also was from the line of David.
Maybe this is why in Markos 9:12 "the Son of man" ἄνθρωπος is singular.
HE is the son of the living GOD and HE existed eternally without beginning or end,
before he became human HE eternally preexisted and you find HIM in the Tanakh as the Angel of the LORD or the Schechina.
In Yochanan 1:14 you find this treasure, the word ἐσκήνωσεν (dwelt) is used here which literally is tabernacled. This is the same principle described in the Neviim Rishonim, Shemuel Bet 7:6.
HE is the truth, the Messiah, the Word himself, Memra, Logos,
(Hashem as some of us call HIM to avoid calling HIS real name according to Halakha, but this appears in Vayikra 24:11 and Halakha has it taken out of context) -
and you find HIS word written in Tanakh and B'rit Chadashah.
Read Yirmeyahu chapter 31 verse 31, HE will make a brit chadasha with ha bayit Yisrael, and with ha bayit Yehudah.
But this b'rit is already in effect for us believing in Adonai Elohenu Yeshua HaMashiach. See Rhomaios 11:16-27.
The LORD will soon return, HIS second coming is near!
The LORD Jesus Christ after his resurrection ascended into heaven. Since his resurrection HE has a glorified body and can never die again, so HE remains GOD and Human forever, as glorified Human and GOD himself he sits now at the right hand of GOD (see Hebrew 10:12).
But soon HE will return to earth in the same way he ascended, as GOD and glorified Man, visible to every eye. (see Matthew 24:30)

(3) Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

HE is my Saviour, by HIS grace HE saved me from my sins,
because he died for our sins on the cross and HE has been raised on the third day. See Kórinthos Alef 15:3-4.
The Bible (Tanakh + Brit Hadashah) is GOD's Word, completed, without error,
inspired by GOD the Holy Spirit and written down by HIS holy Prophets and Apostles.
The whole holy scriptures tell from our LORD Jesus Christ! Read Yochanan 5:39.

First it should be noted that the notion that there was an unbroken succession of (oral) Torah from Moses to the rabbis (Sanhedrin) is an article of faith that (at first sight) seems to contradict the testimony of Scripture itself. The written Torah makes the explicit claim that "Moses wrote all the words of the LORD" (וַיִּכְתֹּב מֹשֶׁה אֵת כָּל־דִּבְרֵי יְהוָה) before reading it to the people (Ex. 24:3-7). Now while it's true that the word "all" here might be qualified to mean "all the words that God commanded Moses to write," there is still a question about how the claim that the oral Torah was given might be substantiated. After all, the only appeal for its occurrence is a self-referential appeal contained within oral tradition itself, the very point at issue. Moreover, Moses' great successor Joshua was likewise commanded to abide exclusively by the book of the Law written by Moses (Josh. 1:8, 8:30-34, 23:6) without reference to oral Torah. It should also be noted that the written Torah itself warns not to add or subtract to any of its words (Deut. 4:2, 12:32, Prov. 30:5-6), yet Jewish tradition regards the oral Law as equally authoritative in matters of faith and practice, thereby effectively "adding" to its words.
AntwortenLöschenJesus and Oral Torah
AntwortenLöschenWhat about Yeshua (Jesus)? Did He support the idea of oral Torah? Well, yes and no. Jesus is GOD and he was the ONE that gave his law to Moshe.
HE is the lawmaker and free to add to or interpret his law.
On the one hand Yeshua agreed with much of the prevailing thinking of the Pharisees. When asked what was the greatest commandment of the LORD, Yeshua quoted the ve'ahavta portion of the Shema: ve'ahavta et Adonai eloheykha be'khol-levavkha, u'vekhol nafshekha, u'vekhol me'odekha, "And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength" (Deut. 6:5), and then He added the commandment, v'ahavta l're'akha kamokha, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself" (Lev. 19:18). Both of these commandments were the "agreed upon answer" to the question according to the oral Torah of His day (at least from the perspective of the "house of Hillel"). Yeshua's formulation of the "Golden Rule" (Matt. 7:12) is quite similar to the (negatively stated) "Silver Rule" of Hillel: "Do not do to others as you would not have them do to." Yeshua also agreed with the Pharisees regarding the resurrection from the dead, the existence of angels and demons, the coming of the Mashiach, and the necessity of preserving the Law (Matthew 5:17-20).
Yeshua also willingly subjected himself to the religious authoritiy of His day, the Sanhedrin. When He was commanded by the High Priest to confess his identity during his "trial," Yeshua apparently complied (Matt. 26:63-64). Yeshua did this in order to fulfill the requirement of the Torah and to become a sacrificial victim on behalf of Temple Judaism (for more information, see: Yeshua's Pidyon ha-ben ceremony).
AntwortenLöschenThe Last Passover of Yeshua also indicates that He observed elements of the oral traditions. When He blessed the bread and Cups, He was following the general pattern of the Seder that was endorsed by the sages of His day. Yeshua also apparently wore tzitzit (Mark 6:56, Matt. 9:21), recited Haftarah in the synagogue on the Sabbath according to the parashah divisions developed by Ezra and the members of the Great Assembly (Luke 4:16-22), referred to the Bible in the threefold division of Torah, Writings, and Prophets (i.e., the Tanakh, also developed by Ezra the Scribe); and so on. Yeshua's teaching methodology (the use of parables, the master-disciple relationship, and so on).
On the other hand, Yeshua regularly violated various Pharisaical rules and regulations by eating bread without first washing his hands (Matt. 15:1-3), gathering grain on the Sabbath day (Luke 6:1-4), associating with sinners (Mark 2:16), touching lepers (Matt. 8:2-3), healing on the Sabbath (Matt. 12:10), etc. In fact, He went beyond the authority of Moses -- who spoke in the Name of YHVH -- by saying things like: "You have heard that it was said to those of old," which prefaced each of his pronouncements (Matt. 5:21-43). He called Himself "Lord of the Sabbath" (Luke 6:1-11) and accused the scribes and Pharisees of misinterpreting the truth intent of the Torah. Throughout his public ministry he fiercely rejected the concept of "putting a fence around the Torah" by adding extra-Scriptural religious edicts, customs and traditions (Matt. 15:1-9; 23:13-30, Mark 7:1-22, etc.).
Certain Messianic believers suggest that Yeshua actually endorsed Rabbinical authority. As a proof text, they cite Matthew 23:2-3:
The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, so practice and observe whatever they tell you - but not what they do. For they preach, but do not practice.
At first glance it seems that Yeshua is saying that His followers are to practice and observe the Jewish traditions as expounded by the scribes and Pharisees. However, when we closely read the context of this passage we note that these words undoubtedly indicate irony and scorn for their outward shows of righteousness (Matt 23:13-36). If Yeshua had seriously meant for His followers to practice and observe what the scribes and Pharisees had taught, why would He go on to berate them as hypocrites who "shut up the kingdom of heaven against men," making a "pretense" of their prayers and going out of their way to make one convert who is "twice the child of hell" than themselves? Would Yeshua have you and I practice and observe these sorts of things? On the contrary, the overall context of this passage indicates that the follower of the Messiah should not become subject to their authority. This interpretation is further made evident by Yeshua's statement that we are to be subject to Him alone as Teacher and are to call no one "rabbi" (Matthew 23:8).
