The
Way Prepared Latest
Events and Updates
Upcoming
Events:The
Bride's preparation is now accelerating - for the
Bridegroom will soon arrive! This
site is for those
who diligently seek the Way of Life, and who
would choose to prepare themselves for the arrival of the Bridegroom.
The
central focus of this site is the Good News of the Kingdom of God,
including Yahuweh's plan of salvation offered freely to those
that
would choose to be saved by Faith – by the shed blood of the
Lamb
of God, who was crucified on the place called Calvary.
The
goal of this site is to proclaim the simplicity of the Gospel according
to the Scriptures, then to direct seekers to search
the
Scriptures daily for themselves, as did the Bereans, to see whether
these things are
so (Acts 17:11).
Certain
prophetic keys and details are given that will assist
some Readers
in their own personal preparation for the appearing of the
Bridegroom. Others may find these writings helpful in their
endurance through the furnace of the times that are almost upon
us.
These
studies have been written hastily from notes taken during an
extended time in the wilderness. Due to time constraints,
these studies appear only in abbreviated format, using mostly
Scripture references, with some explanation for clarity. It
is
hoped that in time, if the Bridegroom tarries, more detail may be
offered in these pages.
These
writings are not intended to put condemnation on anyone.
Neither are they intended to promote myself or any group.
They are presented simply to provide a practical
preparation guideline for those who yearn to be among the
Bride, and to help us to see where we are in time.
Our
desire
is that the Reader would first pray for understanding, as did David
of old, and as Jeremiah, for enlightenment by the Holy
Spirit:
| Psalms
119:18 |
Open
thou
mine
eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy
Law (Torah). | | Jeremiah
33:3 |
Call
unto me, and I
will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou
knowest not. |
As
Bible
Believers, there
is yet much preparation the Bride must undergo to become ready for the
Bridegroom, but there is precious little time. There is much hidden
treasure to be found buried within the Scriptures that will provide
immense wealth of preparation to the Reader. May every one of
you find
Gold, Silver, and Precious Stones!
- Introduction
- Goal, Site Purpose, and Use
of Names - The
Scriptures are alive with prophetic meanings for our day (the
'now-for-today' meaning for us). These messages
are "hidden in plain sight" in the Bible for Yahuweh's
people to find. They point to Yahushua as 'The Way' and enable us to
prepare 'The Way' in our hearts. A brief explanation
of the use of Biblical names of the Father, and of the Son.
- Overviews
- Some of the Plans and Purposes of Yahuweh - Scripture
portrays
many pictures and examples of Yahuweh's plans and purposes,
hidden within various words and events of Scripture.
Yahuweh has purposely hidden many of these things for us to
seek for, and to find, in order that we be fully furnished, and
prepared. A few of these overviews are presented
here.
- The
Good News!
- There is both Good News and Bad News, but the Good News has
cancelled the Bad News, for all who believe.
- The
3-Fold Harvest
- This Study is an overview of the Harvest, and reading this first will
give proper perspective to all the others. The Husbandman
awaits
the harvest now
ripening. This study is an overview of the One Harvest of
Yahuweh's people, and how it occurs in three separate phases.
The timing
of each phase is
revealed in the three Harvest Feasts of Yahuweh.
- The Two Witnesses of Devarim - By
Brick Parrish - An overview of the offer of Betrothal and the eternal
Marriage Agreement between
Yahweh and His people. The present-day testimony of
Heaven and Earth, and what these Two
Witnesses reveal.
- The
Father Seeks a Bride for His Son:
Betrothal Secrets - Questions of closed eyes, hidden
sayings, and teaching in Parables can be explained by
observing how the Father seeks
for, and selects a Bride for His Son. A look at a few of the many
features
of the Bride's Betrothal, including the 'seal' or earnest of her
Betrothal; how the Bridegroom's appointed days are seen as
courting encounters, and as evidence of Messiah-in-you, and in whose
participation the Bride is identified to the Father who is seeking a
Bride for His Son. Includes details of certain Covenant items found in
the Wedding of the King's Son
Parable. Pre-requisite: This material is only for those who
are 'seekers,' as it is hidden in plain view on this site.
- The Wedding of the King’s
Son (A Parable) - A parable of the Overall purposes of the
King, and how He determines
which of the Bride Candidates are to be chosen; A look at both groups,
as they undergo their preparation for the heavenly Wedding, as
revealed in all of Scripture, and as revealed
in the astonishing, and magnificent, nature of the New
Covenant.
- Who
is the
Bridegroom? - Scriptures reveal who the true Bridegroom is,
and how He
can be recognized.
- Who
is the
Bride? - There are many pictures of both the False
Bride and
the True Bride, to be seen
throughout Scripture, for our learning and example. In this
section the
qualities and
characteristics of the True Bride are presented, as revealed in
Scripture, in various personalities and groups
of people .
- Chavah (Eve) - The Book of Genesis
reveals the overall plan of Yahuweh for taking out a Bride for Himself.
- Elijah
& Elisha - One prophetic view of the Bride's planning
and preparation, as well as many Bride characteristics and features,
can be seen in Elijah and Elisha.
- Lepers
of 2Kings 7 - The Lepers in 2Kings exhibit many Bride
characteristics to be seen in our day.
- Gideon's
Army
- Yahuweh's plan of calling and separating of the
Bride
Candidates out from the larger group can be seen in the prophetic
example of Gideon's Army.
- Ruth
& Boaz - Further Bride characteristics and prophetic
truths can be seen in the example of Ruth and Boaz.
- Joshua & Caleb -
Joshua and Caleb "together" reveal the only ones allowed to enter
the Promised Land.
- Hadassah
(Esther) - The Fascinating story of the various people seen
in the Book of Esther,
and how they portray various people today who either help, or oppose,
the Bride. We see the King, and his kingdom; and Haman as a
leader, who brings error into the King's household; and the Queen
Vashti, who refuses the King's Commandment; the Wise Men; the Seven
chamberlains; and Esther, who portrays the Bride in her
preparation.
- The
Preparation of the Bride - A look at the Bride's preparation,
both by the Holy Spirit and by the Bride herself
- The
Making of an Overcomer: (Part 1) The Wrestling of
Rachel - (For Those Who are Wrestling over Doctrinal Issues).
In the
messages addressed to the called-out people in the
7 cities in Revelation, all the promises are for
those who overcome. A look at
some Scripture showing the issues of
contention today, and how
Born-Again Believers are exhorted to prevail, and overcome. A
look at Rachel, as an example of the Bride, for
our learning.
- The
Making of an Overcomer: (Part 2) The Wrestling of
Jacob - (For
Those Who are Wrestling over Doctrinal Issues). A continuation of Part
1, showing more Scripture on becoming an Overcomer. A
look at Jacob who, after he prevailed, received both a Blessing,
and a
new name. Jacob is seen as an example to all Born-Again Believers who
desire to overcome and prevail, that they might receive the
promises
stated in Revelation chapters 2 and 3.
- The
Bride Makes Herself ready
- There is much preparation to be done before the Bride is considered
"Ready" to go in to the presence of the Bridegroom. An
overview
of How and when the Bride becomes prepared for her Bridegroom.
- How Does the Bride Prepare?
- A detailed look at how the Bride prepares herself for the Bridegroom.
This preparation is related to the
preparation the Wise
Virgins undergo, that separates them from the foolish.
- The New Covenant Passover
- An overview of Passover from the Bride's perspective - how
participation in Passover is the primary item of preparation
for the 'First-Born' of Israel: The Bridegroom as Firstborn of many
brethren, and the Bride Company as a kind of firstfruits of
the entire harvest of Believers.
- The Wise and Foolish Virgins
- Based on the Parable in Matthew 25. A look at what
Scripture reveals as the real differences between the Wise and Foolish
Virgins, with a warning for those desiring to be wise.
- The Wise and Foolish Virgins: The Separation
of the Wise
- Based on
the Parable in Matthew 25, and the Wisdom Verses of Scripture.
The Scriptures reveal a 2-step process
of separation from the multitudes, for those who would grow in
Wisdom. Many Scriptures show a contrast between the Wise
and the Foolish, so that those who seek Wisdom may
know exactly what they may choose to do, in order to prepare for the
arrival of the Bridegroom.
- The
Wise and Foolish: According to Yahushua -
The words of Yahushua spoken in the Gospels tell us in clear
terms who is wise, and who is foolish,
but we have simply not understood what He was telling us. Yahushua is
now calling us to return to being "DO-ers" of His word, according to
the examples seen in His life, and in the life of the apostle Paul, and
according to the words of all the Prophets.
- The
Wise and Foolish Virgins: Steps to Obtaining Wisdom -
The Scriptures are full of instructions for those who would gain
Wisdom. A brief overview of Scriptures
that show characteristics of Wisdom, and of the Fear of
Yahuweh,
and of Knowing Yahuweh, and how we might gain each of these
qualities as our own.
- Contending
for The
Faith - We are exhorted to contend, to fight to
remain in The Faith
that was originally given. Scripture shows what The Faith is, why we
must contend for The Faith, and how we are to contend. Overview of how
the adversary attacks the foundation of the Faith. Examples of
contending for The Faith.
- Are
You in The Faith? Examine Yourselves: The Simple Scripture Test
-
Continuation of Contending for The Faith. We are warned to
examine ourselves, to test ourselves, to see if we are in The Faith.
Scripture tells us what the test is, and clearly reveals the
examples for us to imitate, and by which we may test whether we are in
The Faith.
- Righteousness as the Light
- Based on the Parable in Matthew 25. A brief look at how
Scripture reveals Light as the result of the Wise
Virgins having Oil in their Lamps, and no Light as the result of the
Foolish having no Oil. A warning is given for those today
desiring to have Oil and Light.
- Oil for the Light -
Based on the Parable in Matthew 25. A detailed look
at Scripture that reveals exactly what the Oil for the Lamps
is, and what it is NOT, for our warning today.
- Those Who Sell Oil -
Based on the Parable in Matthew 25. A brief look
at the Oil, and who are those today that continue to "Sell the
Oil" to the Foolish Virgins. This writing is a warning to the
bride, so she might avoid these Dealers of the "Anointing."
- Warnings For the Bride - There
are many warnings given to the Bride, alerting her to those
things that could hinder her preparation, and things that could prevent
her entering in to the Kingdom. For each warning given in
Scripture, we are given a list of consequences for not
heeding the warning, as well as the corresponding remedy.
- The Book of Revelation: A Prophetic Overview
-
What is the purpose of the Book of Revelation- and to whom was it
written? A look at the wording of Revelation tells us that it was
written to the Bride, for the purpose of warning her of hidden "spots
and wrinkles," as she goes about preparing for the Bridegroom; and
to give her vision, hope, and encouragement during a critical time
period.
- The Error of Balaam - One
of the hidden "spots
and wrinkles" issues revealed in the Book of Revelation is
the Error of
Balaam, a poisonous infection that progresses to become
the Doctrine of Balaam. We
will discover
in this detailed writing that the Error of Balaam is NOT greed,
as many have been told. We will look first at the warning of the
Doctrine of
Balaam given in Revelation, and then we will see in detail what
Scripture reveals
about the Error of Balaam, so that we might remove it from our lives.
- The Doctrine of Balaam Today: A Warning to
the Bride
Major Item! -
The Book of Revelation is warning the Bride today against the
"Doctrine of Balaam," which is now being discovered as the Bride
prepares
for the Bridegroom. A brief overview of what this Doctrine is, and
how it has been embraced by most Believers today.
A brief look at how the initial Error of Balaam
progresses to the Way of Balaam, and
finally becomes the Doctrine
of Balaam, bringing a plague on entire congregations. A look at
examples of the crippling effects of the Doctrine of Balaam, and how
Yahuweh will fight against all who continue to hold
this error.
- Eating Things Sacrificed Unto Idols: A
Warning to the Bride
Major
Item!
-
The Bridegroom gives a Double-Warning to the Bride. One of the most
common reasons the Bridegroom will "have a few things against" His
people is the widespread practice of (unknowingly) eating things
sacrificed unto idols. An examination of Scripture reveals what this
is, what causes it, and how we might repent of this Sin.
- The Strange Woman: A Warning to the
Bride - The Light
of the Scriptures has removed the cloak hiding the wiles of
the enemy, who has used the Strange Woman,
seen throughout Scripture, to bring a subtle and great
deception
upon Yahuweh's people. This Strange Woman has quietly deceived,
and taken captive much of the Evangelical World, and is
promoting
a very subtle, counterfeit 'New Covenant' that looks much like the true
New Covenant of Scripture. The Scriptural antidote
to guard
against this deception and captivity is
given. Features of
the Strange Woman are summarised, to help the Bride-Candidates
discern the man-made, false Covenant, from the Scriptural, true
Covenant. Scriptures reveal how treading the path of a false 'New
Covenant' affects the promised inheritance.
- Entering the Kingdom: The Two Love Tests
-
Not everyone that says, "Lord, Lord" will enter the Kingdom, but only
those who "do".... Scripture is clear that there will be final
exams given, in order to test each one who would desire to enter.
Yahushua tells us what these tests are, so that we might study
the material, and perhaps pass the test when it comes.
- Who is the Chaste Virgin?
-
The Scriptures portray the betrothed Bride as a Chaste Virgin. The
Bridegroom has a
plan for the Bride: that she might remain chaste. The serpent also
has a plan for the Bride: to remove her chaste condition by
various forms of corruption. Scriptures reveal what it means
to be chaste; and gives us warning of
the kinds of corruption to avoid, and the antidote for these
corruptions, in order to remain chaste.
- Graven Images and Idols: the Scriptural
Definition
Major
Item! -
A closer look at the Second Commandment, and how Scripture
defines Idols and Graven Images, and their differences. A brief
review and further details of how these items affect New Covenant
Believers, for our warning.
- Stepping
Stones for the Bride:
The Feasts of Yahuweh
Coming
Soon
- An overview of the Feasts or Sabbaths of
Yahuweh, with an in-depth
look at the initial Feast of Passover. The Mystery of
Passover is
seen hidden among the Feasts of Yahuweh, which serve as stepping-stones
in our walking with the Bridegroom in the Way of Righteousness.
- The
Mystery of Passover -
Introduction (Part 1)
Coming Soon -
The Passover is seen among the Appointed Times or moedim
of
Yahuweh in Leviticus chapter 23. It is not listed as a Great
or High Sabbath
day, but its practice initiates and gives meaning
to all the
subsequent annual Sabbaths of Yahuweh.
Yahuweh's purpose
for Passover, and the Scriptural timing
of Passover, are both part of the 'mystery' of
Messiah, in that they are not easily seen, but have been
hidden for the Bride to seek, to find, and to practice.
Like the other Feasts and Sabbaths of Yahuweh, Passover serves as a
kind of 'filter,' to further screen-out all Bride-Candidates who are
not willing to follow Yahushua's example.
- Prophetic Signposts - Yahuweh
has provided many Biblical signposts
along the way. These hidden signposts in the Earth, and in the heavens,
reveal and confirm exactly where we are in His timetable, and are not
seen nor
understood by any but the Bride. Taken together these reveal
the remarkable, promised Testimony of Heaven and Earth.
- Things to Come
- The Source of Understanding, and its purpose and end results are
revealed. The Scriptures tell us who has it, and who does not -
and how we might find "Understanding."
- Prophetic
Events
- The Bridegroom has hidden many prophetic events for the Bride to see,
in our daily
lives, and throughout Scripture. These events are for the
purpose of giving messages to the Bride, for her growth and
encouragement. All such messages point back to
Scripture as the test for authenticity.
- Prophetic
Numbers In Scripture
- The Bridegroom
is revealing many of the "now" or prophetic meanings
of Scripture, that have been hidden away within the numbers in
Scripture. These numbers and their meanings reveal
the prophetic meaning of Scripture, and also confirm and
authenticate the plain-sense meaning of Scripture.
- Prophetic Words In Scripture
- The Eyes of Yahuweh's people are beginning to open, and to see many
new treasures the Bridegroom has "hidden away" in the Scriptures, for
the Bride to seek out, and to find. Some of these treasures are the
"now" or prophetic meanings of Scripture Words, that allow the Bride to
clearly see the path
that will allow her to enter in to the Promised Land.
Cautions are given, that two or 3 witnesses are still required to
establish any
word or matter.
- Bridegroom and Bride Signs
in the Heavens!- The Bridegroom has placed
certain signs in the night sky for
all the Bride-Candidates to see. Just as the Star of Bethlehem
announced the first arrival of Messiah, in the same way these
celestial signs reveal clues to the timing of the Bridegroom's
return for the Bride. These signs have already been seen in great
detail in the heavens! The Scriptures list
specific signs in the heavens that announce
the Father's inspection of the Bride, the Bridegroom's arrival for the
Bride, the taking-away or resurrection of the Bride, the beginning of
the Furnace testing of the Believers, and the subsequent resurrection
of the Believers.
- More Bride Signs in the Heavens! -
These additional Bride signs in the heavens are occurring
simultaneous to the other Bride Signs in the Heavens! These
signs appear to confirm Scriptures not yet considered, but that can now
be seen as parallel
signs, and bringing further confirmation. These signs bring clarity to
certain Scriptures, and have great implications for the Greater Body of
Messiah.
- Heavenly Signs and Day-Counts
Watch for New Signs!
- Signs in the heavens occurring on Biblically-significant dates give
new insight into various day-counts seen in scripture. The 1260 days
and 1290 days are now coming into view, with confirming signs in the
heavens.
- A New Sign in the Heavens: The Last Day
-
There is a new sign in the heavens
that appears annually, similar to the description seen in Song
of Solomon, where the Bridegroom knocks on the door, but backs away,
only
to return later, possibly an indicator of the time Bride is to
be taken in Resurrection. This
sign occurs in 2009 as early as the 'Last Day' of the seventh Biblical
month, and infrequently on the Last Day of the seventh Biblical month
in subsequent years.
- Watching:
The Day and the Hour - Scriptures tell the Bride what signs
to look for.
The testimony of Heaven and Earth reveal both the 'what' and the 'when'
of
the Bride's resurrection.
- The 4200th Verse
- A look at the highly-prophetic 4200th verses of
both Old and New Testaments, and how they portray the Bride's
resurrection.
- The Iron Gate Will
Open Soon - This is a link to a well-written article by Bob
Schlenker at theopenscroll.com, revealing the
prophetic picture of the Bride's resurrection, as seen in the
account of Peter in Acts Chapter 12.
- Entering
the Promised Land - An overview of Scripture,
and the words of Yahushua, on how we may enter in, and how we may not
enter in,
depending on our choices. Includes detailed, clear and simple
instructions by Yahushua, and New Testament warnings given for our
instruction.
- The Promised Land-How to Enter In: The Words
of Yahushua -
The words of Yahushua, and indeed all the Scriptures, give us clear and
pointed instruction on how New Covenant Believers must first come
out by the Blood, and then enter in by obedience, all by Grace.
Detailed examples are given from Scripture.
- The Promised Land: Choosing to Enter In
- The
entire Scriptures reveal the great plan of Yahuweh, whereby we are
given freedom to choose whom we will serve, and then may choose to
enter in,
by His Grace, or we may choose not to enter in, depending on all our
choices. New Testament "Warnings" are given for our
instruction.
- Whom Do
You Say That I Am?
- A Scriptural review of our testing, and of whether or not we "know"
the Bridegroom. Many Scriptural issues and warnings for us to use
to examine ourselves, to see just where we are in our knowing Him, and
in our obedience level. Many warnings and examples of Scripture,
and tests of our "doctrines" reveal whom we say Yahushua is.
- What Is His Name, and What Is His Son's Name
— If You can Tell? -
A riddle is presented in the Proverbs, challenging us to
search the Scriptures for the hidden, true names of the Father, and the
Son. Some examples of how the Bereans searched the
Scriptures to verify the teachings of the apostle Paul, are used to
find the true names of the Father and the Son.
- The Test for Entering In - Not
everyone will be allowed to enter the City of the King, so everyone
must be tested to see whether they are authorised to enter. Many
Scriptures reveal testing we undergo each day, in order to determine
who we are, by our demonstrating of whom we say Yahushua is.
- From the Beginning - Have
we known Him from the Beginning? What are "My" commandments?
What are "My" sayings? We must determine who
He is, in order to determine what His sayings are.
- Messiah In The Wilderness - Who
is Yahushua? The promise of "I will give you rest" reveals who
Yahushua is. Messiah accompanied His people in the Wilderness, and
is our example for entering His rest. The test of "If you
love me."
- Messiah-In-You -
Discerning His will; Doctrines and Commandments of
Men prevent us from entering His rest; allowing Messiah-in-you to
bring us in.
- Let
No Man Steal Your Crown - Reveals
there are men today trying to take away, and steal your Bridal veil,
and your crown; things that allow your crown to be stolen;
the Doctrine of Balaam, and how it will steal your crown.
- The
Way of Salvation: According to the Scriptures - The
Scriptures reveal a picture of Salvation that is different from what
many today have understood. Salvation in Scripture is seen as a
3-fold process, and as two separate stages. The example of
coming out of Egypt, and entering into the Promised Land, all according
to Yahuweh's Grace, is seen as one great example of Salvation for us
today.
- The
Good News!
- There is both Good News and Bad News, but the Good News
has cancelled the Bad News, for all who believe!
- How Do I Receive God's Forgiveness for My
Sins? -
New - According to the
Bible, forgiveness of sins does not come
from keeping the commandments, nor by being good, nor by becoming
religious, nor by our good deeds — no matter how
many or how good they might be! The Bible reveals the simple
solution to how we are forgiven of our sins.
- The Blood of the Lamb
-
New - By Derek Prince - An
excellent, brief overview of the Scriptures on the Blood of
the Lamb, and its absolute necessity for New
Covenant Salvation. A Scripture
review of Redemption, Forgiveness, Cleansing, Justification,
and
Sanctification, and how the Blood of Messiah accomplishes these in the
life of the Believer today. The Good News of the gospel is that through
Yahushua's death on the cross, He defeated Satan on our behalf in two
primary ways. First, He made it possible for us to obtain forgiveness
of past sin. Second, He made it possible for us to receive
God’s righteousness by faith without having to observe the law—thus
depriving Satan of his chief weapon against us, which is guilt.
- The Way of Salvation: Introduction
-
The Scriptures reveal a clear and simple message of
Salvation. The Scriptures reveal to us exactly what Salvation
is, and what it is not. In this series we will look Biblical
Terminology, at Israel as our example, as we look at some of the
highlights of Salvation, according to the Scriptures.
- The Way of Salvation: Part 1- Using Bible
Terminology - The
Scriptures reveal a picture of Salvation that is different from what
many today have understood. The Greek words translated
"Salvation" in the New Testament include the meanings of deliverance,
rescue, safety, and preservation of life. Many today,
however, ascribe additional Bible concepts to the word Salvation,
thereby mixing concepts and doctrines, resulting
in error and confusion. The solution for this is to
get back to Scripture, and to use Bible words to define Bible
concepts.
- The Way of Salvation: Part 2- Israel as Our
Example - In order to help us examine
ourselves, to see if we are in the Faith,
we must have a good understanding of true "Biblical" Salvation.
The New Testament refers many times to Israel as our example,
and for our warning. We must therefore find out what these
New Testament warnings are, and why they are so important for us today.
We must look to all of Scripture, where we get an
"eye-opening" view of what New Covenant Salvation is, and what it is
not.
- Truth:
According to the Scriptures - One of the most important
Biblical concepts we must grasp. Truth is determined only by
Scripture, and the error of the Doctrines of Men can be seen only
against the backdrop of Scripture.
- The Way of Truth: According to the Scriptures
-
Truth is seen in Scripture not as an abstract, mental idea, but as
the living person of Yahushua. It is only when we allow
Messiah-in-us to walk in His own Truth, that Truth is made manifest to
us, and we then walk in the Light. Scripture reveals
the consequences of walking in Truth, and of NOT walking
in Truth.
- What You Believe: True or False? The Simple
Biblical Test - Testing Belief
Against Scripture - Is your current belief according to
Scripture? Or, is it a mixture of truth and church
Tradition – the Teaching and
Doctrines of Men? A simple Biblical test will
determine. Man's perception of Scriptural Truth is what
determines his actions,
his daily walk with Yahuweh, and even his eternal
destiny. Thus many today have placed their eternal
destinies in the hands of a few Pastors and Theologians.
- WWYD - What Would Yahushua Do? -
The simplest test of what we should do in every aspect of life, to
enable
us to determine "Truth" and to enable us to "enter in" to the Promised
Land. Shows Yahushua as our example in all things.
- Foundations
of The Faith - Scriptures reveal the foundations of the
Faith, surprisingly different from what most of us have
learned. At least Two or three witnesses of Scripture, and the words of
the
Prophets, confirm these Truths for us today.
- Sin: According to the Scriptures -
Sin has been re-defined today by Theologians, as part of their
Doctrines of Men
they promote, and as a result, prevent many from entering
in. Scriptures reveal the True, New Testament definition of
Sin. A look at Bondage to Sin, and Yahuweh's remedy for
Sin. A look at the Mystery of Iniquity, and how it is rampant among
Believers today.
A brief look at the early generation of Israelites, and why they
failed to enter in to the Promised Land; The words of Yahushua
regarding iniquity today
– reveal who will not "enter in."
- Law:
According to the Scriptures
Coming Soon -
Most Believers today are not taught the Scriptural,
New Covenant Truth about the Law ('Torah') of
Yahuweh, but are taught a man-made paradigm,
or 'spin' of the Truth. Scripture plainly reveals exactly what it means
to be 'under' the Law; and tells us plainly, what was
against us, and what was done away with, and what was nailed to the
cross. A look at Yahuweh's two-fold, New Covenant purpose for the
Law ('Torah'). The richness of Torah
understanding and practice can be seen in the writings of Paul, who
uncovers some real gems of Truth for the Bride's adornment today.
A real eye-opener for all New Covenant Believers who desire to
press in to truly know our Father, and who desire
to fully prepare themselves to enter in to
the Promised Land of their Inheritance.
- True Grace - By
David Hargis - A very brief, but accurate overview of New
Covenant Grace as used in the context of the majority
of Scripture passages.
- Grace:
According to the Scriptures
Coming Soon -
Grace is another term that has been
re-defined by the Theologians, along with the word Sin,
as an attempt to lend credibility to their Doctrines of Men. All
the Scriptures, from Genesis to Revelation, prove conclusively what
Grace actually is,
and what it is not. The Believer's full participation in the New
Covenant can be limited by a non-Scriptural view of Yahuweh's
Grace. An in-depth look at Paul's main theme reveals the warnings
against receiving His Grace in vain, of falling
from Grace, and of growing in Grace.
- Righteousness:
According to the Scriptures
Coming Soon - In order to understand
Righteousness, one must lay down all the baggage carried from the past,
including
previously learned, religious-sounding, but man-made definitions. The
Scriptures reveal the two-fold nature of righteousness, and how Messiah
Yahushua accomplishes both stages within Man, by His Grace
alone.
- Repentance:
The Good News of the Kingdom
Coming Soon - Repentance is almost an
unknown entity today in many religious communities. Repentance as a
requirement for New Covenant Believers is seen throughout the New
Testament. A look at Scriptural examples of Repentance. A
discussion of "Can't Get Home Without it!" – how entrance
into the Promised Land is impossible without Repentance.
- Walking in Eternal Judgment -
In Hebrews Chapter 6 we are encouraged to become proficient in all of
the foundation stones of The Faith. As the last of the six foundation
stones listed, eternal judgment is perhaps the one least understood,
but vitally necessary, in order for Yahushua's Bride to be permitted
to go on unto completion. One of the main links in the chain of
Yahuweh's process of redemption and salvation, these Mishpatim
of Yahuweh play a major role in the preparation of His Bride, and of
leading her into the eternal inheritance.
- Commandments:
Which Ones for New Testament Believers? - A look at
Commandments
throughout Scriptures – and which ones are relevant for New
Covenant Believers. A look at many new Testament examples, for our
imitating, and our learning.
- How
to Avoid a Carnal Mind - The New Testament reveals much about
how to
avoid a carnal mind, and how the carnal mind can actually prevent
Yahuweh's people from entering in to the Promised Land.
- Our
Only Hope of Glory
- Scriptures reveal our only hope of being among those called 'My
Glory' is for us to allow Messiah-in-you to manifest Himself in us, in
all His fullness. A look at many Scriptures and examples revealing
facets of
His fullness He expects of His Born-Again children. A brief look
at some of the ways we have been taught to deny Him, and to prevent His
fullness in us, for our warning.
- Grace-Grace -
The Two-Fold aspect of New Testament Grace, as revealed throughout the
Old and New Testaments. Scripture reveals how our
understanding of
only one side of the two-sided coin of Grace
has caused us to fall
short of Yahuweh's Righteousness. Yahushua, who is
our Righteousness, is the first aspect of His Grace for our
Righteousness. Both aspects of Yahuweh's Grace, as seen in
Zechariah 4, are required to bring us into His presence.
- The New Covenant: According to the Scriptures
-
The New Covenant - The original Covenant made with Abraham; its
conditions; Israel in the Wilderness; The Bondwoman and the free woman;
New Covenant provisions of Grace; The Old vs. New Covenant yokes
of Bondage; No compulsion; Bondservant provisions of the
Covenant.
- New Covenant Liberty: Freedom to Choose
-
Many surprising, and astonishing features of the New Covenant are
revealed in this in-depth look at the New Covenant, such as the Yoke of
Bondage, the New
Covenant Exchange of Yokes, and voluntary Bondservants; External vs.
Internal tables of the heart, some hard sayings of Paul; and how one
may continue to walk at Liberty
- Dying to Self - Brief list of
practical examples of how we experience "dying to
self." In order for resurrection Life to occur, we must first
undergo this death of self in all areas of our life. As we allow
the cross to bring crucifixion, we then experience the power of His
resurrection.
- The
Congregation: The Tabernacle of the Testimony - Scriptures
tell us that the Tabernacle of the Testimony was to be guarded
carefully, that there be no wrath upon the children of Israel. Today,
the Tabernacle of Testimony finds its fulfillment in the
Believers in whom the Holy Spirit dwells, both as
individuals, and as a Congregation. Thus it is, that
the Congregation is to play an important part of
Yahuweh's Testimony, revealing the light of
the Life
of Messiah to Israel and to all the nations.
- The Holy Spirit in the Congregation
-
New - By Derek Prince - An
excellent overview of how the Congregation is to be set in order, that
it might shine the Light of the Life of Messiah to
all who are present. The balance of the Holy Spirit
and Truth will restore the congregational Lampstand to its
intended brightness. A strong word, not for the
complacent, intended only for those who desire to lead their Congregations to press on
further into Father's presence.
- The Midrash: A Messianic Substitute for the Holy Spirit in the Congregation - (Coming soon) - The midrash
as seen in Judaism and in many Messianic congregations, is shown
in vivid contrast to the Scriptural model of the Holy Spirit in the
Congregation. The current popular use of the midrash in the
congregation, in place of the Scriptural Holy Spirit model, will result
in the lack of spiritual nourishment, stunted spiritual growth, and
eventual falling away of many.
- From
My Wife - Scriptural Principles are
discussed, and guidance given, for those who desire to be as Daughters
of Sarah, and who long for the appearing of the Bridegroom.
- Acquiring A Teachable Heart -
Growing into His image, from Glory to Glory, requires laying down our
own understanding, in exchange for His understanding. Yahushua is
our example, for growing in maturity and in
obedience, and in how we may acquire a heart attitude of a Little Child.
- Feeding the Master's Flock -
As the Bride-Candidates undergo their preparation, they begin to
understand that they are to pass on the mantle of instruction to
others, and to feed the Master's little Flock. Here are some prophetic
pictures from Scripture that show exactly what their spiritual food is,
and how it is to be prepared and served to the Master's
household.
- Final
Preparations - Last-Minute Check List for the Bride,
and a different Check List for the remaining Believers, who might find
themselves unprepared when the master's Servant comes for the Bride.
