HE BLESSES, YAHUSHA REDEEMS, PART 1
1 Peter 1:3-5
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
We sin, Yahusha has never sinned. He's free from iniquity making it impossible for Him to fear death. We sin every day, sometimes without being conscious of the fact. Know that it is human to error, but to live in sin is death. The Father does not want us to sin; He gave us free will to choose not to. We choose to walk according to His will and in His laws with the same free will that leads us in the way of iniquity. Yahuah and Yahusha are Spirit, we are flesh. We can be petty or straightforward when trying to live for the Father by believing in the one who made Himself propitiation for our sins. Life isn't easy but it shall be in the end. Adam sinned before the Father who knew he would. The Most High isn't sadistic nor does He want His faithful or the lost to suffer. His Son said His strength is made perfect in our weakness. This doesn’t equate weakness with suffering without parallel reasoning. Paul was in great travail when he prayed to Yahusha and besought Him to remove 3 puzzling thorns from his side. You have asked the Messiah to alleviate you from your misery while in the midst of your trouble only to suffer more. It doesn't mean Yahusha doesn't hear or love you. If life was easy for you and I, how would we appreciate those small but essential blessings that will become greater? {Romans 5:3-5 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; 4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope: 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us}. How many times have you read about billionaires and multi-millionaires committing suicide who suffered from chronic depression or a debilitating disease or illness like Steve Jobs the former CEO of Apple Corp? They possess more wealth than people can dream of, but were none the merrier. He couldn’t be saved with a vital organ transplant. The Holy Ghost will lift you up from poverty into a glorious place less than an inch in front of you and an inch behind you. Wealth isn't always measured in money; be discreet. Yahuah had to birth a Son from a Virgin knowing Adam would disobey Him. Could we live without Yahusha and the Father whose temperament with Yisrael was like a battle between a honey badger and a sponge? We were too reluctant to serve Him and too willing to serve wood, clay, and metal. Adam made it harder for us or did he? We can conclude that the Father made conciliation for us with the birth of Yahusha or we would be cursed to die and burn in hell had He not. What about those who entered heaven like Enoch who walked with the Most High? Only 3 men in the Bible entered heaven not separate from the body. Yahusha didn’t come here for the healthy, He came for the sick in sin. {1 Peter 3:18-20 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water}. The Father told Ezekiel to declare unto Yisrael why should the wicked perish? It brings me no pleasure or glory. {Ezekiel 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?} We rebuked the Father many times before being led into bondage all 7 times. By His mercies He brought us out. He knew we were a people envied and hated by the world because they feared Him. Yahuah claimed us but His Son died for all yet we are hated mightily. Read {Ezekiel 16:4-9}. What were His other reasons in choosing us over the other tribes? “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;” Yisrael are priests to the Father who are blessed to minister unto all nations and to the Most High Himself. This is what the Levitical priests are called for. Continue—
