God will keep His promises through "Yeshua in US"

Please use the link www.bible.com for easy access to many Bible versions empowering you to check  references I provide.

The Bible library should be read as an overview of the  "Timeline" of the "Word of God", how God has always intended to move from the "spiritual" to the "physical" through mankind. The implications are that our future is to have supernatural bodies like Yeshua was given after He became "the firstborn raised from the dead".

In western literature we use chapters, paragraphs , sentences,words.  I have learnt that Hebrew culture use an additional method the "Toledoth" 

Hebrew Culture. Hebrew literature- "Toledoths"

A "Toledoth" is a Hebrew thinking process of looking at how God develops His plans starting with a key event or person. The English translation  "the generations of ". does not fully convey the full meaning of the Toledoth which is that the promises God are are fulfilled through key events/people.

Bible Genesis 2:4 "This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens"

Each Toledoth (below ) tracks from the very beginning of Gods creation. Bible Genesis 2::4

Bible " Genesis 5:1 "This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, he made him in God's likeness He created them male and female, and blessed them. On the day they were created , he named them Adam

Bible Genesis 6:9 This is the history of the generations of Noah:

Bible Genesis 10:1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japeth. Sons were born to them after the flood

Bible Genesis 11:10 This is the history of the generations of Shem:

Bible Genesis 11:27 Now this is the history of the generations of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram,.....

Bible Genesis25:12 Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham

Bible Genesis 25:19 This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac

Bible Genesis 36:1 Now this is the history of the generations of Esau (that is Edom)

Bible Genesis 36:9 This is the history of the generations of Esau the father of the Edomitesin the hill country of Seir Esau;

Bible Genesis 37:2 This is the history of the generations of Jacob

Gods intention Mankind rule/manage holiness/ love righteous justice fairness

Spiritual World Satans tactics Gods Declaration of War Gods promise Yeshua centre of plan Yeshua the Jew

In our western secular culture it is possible to miss that the "Timeline" of the Word of God assumes a "Spirit world" The Bible informs us that there are angels cherubs and cherubims. The most famous are known by the name Satan , Lucifer, Serpent, Devil. He was made beautiful in appearance , super intelligent , super strong but he became super proud and a master of deception.

Bible Genesis 3:25 

 between "Cain" serpents seed v "Seth" womans seed right through to Bible Matthew1:1 "A record of the genealogy of Yeshua Messiah the son of David the son of Abraham Matthew is saying this is the final toledoth the one God promised in Genesis. 

Definition of Jew Expanded to all peoples

Mankind banned from Gods presence Temple/Restore Gods presence/holiness Mans right to choose/Rainbow not so far

In the early part of the Timeline there is a portable Temple. The place where God meets a Priest representing man,where sacrifices are made for sin. A small tent where each item of content illustrates aspects of our relationship with God

After the reign and many achievements of king David his son Solomon builds a temple in Jerusalem (957 BC) Solomons temple is detroyed by Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon (586 BC)

When Cyrus of Persia allows the Jews to return from captivity to Jerusalem Zerubbabel builds a temple on the same site (538BC to 516BC. Zerubbabel's temple is desecrated by Antiochus iv Epiphanes (167BC)

Herod the great renovates the desecrated temple (20/19BC) Yeshua Messiah prophesised that this temple would be destroyed and He would replace when raised from the dead. See 1 Peter 2 quoted in Conclusion Both prophesies fulfilled. Yeshus Messiah was crucified but rose from death after three days, Roman Emperor Titus destroyed temple AD 70 but leaving the "Western Wall" used today for Jewish worship.

AD135 Emperor Hadrian built temple of Jupiter on site.

691AD Umayyad Caliphate Dome of the Rock- shrine to Allah

705AD Al-Aqsa Mosque  

Conclusion

Paul took 17 years 

Living Water

The Word redefined

Bible 1Peter2  :4 Come to Him, a living stone , rejected indeed by men , but chosen by God,precious. You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Yeshua the Messiah 

has a meaning,has  developed to a Temple in Jerusalem, which is succeeded by a New Jerusalem, 

 New Heavens and a new earth where man (Us) become the Temple of God the Holy Spirit! Beginnings developed from prophecy in the book of Genesis are continued into further books of the Tanakh which  skillfully weaves into Jewish history how not only does the meaning of Temple change but the sign of being a Jew is changed from circumcision of the flesh of Jewish males to circumcision of the hearts of men and women  as equals Jew and Gentile equally blessed by God in Yeshua Messiah. 

 I

Gods intention was and is that mankind in the image of God is to rule the creation.  Lucifer/Serpent persuaded  Adam and Eve to disobey God. After that Adam and Eve were able to discern good from evil but their actions showed they did not have the power to choose good over evil and so disrupting God's plan to rule through US.

God loves us intensely but His holiness justice righteousness and fairness means God will not overlook the smallest lie. God will not overlook sin. When people sin God gives them over to their lusts, their anger, their fears. 

Persuading mankind to disobey God was and is Lucifer's strategy to rule in our world today. Lucifer's scheme worked, mankind was expelled from the presence of God but  Lucifer continued to have access not to worship God but as an accuser of mankind.Bible Job- possibly the oldest book in the Bible provides a "behind the scenes" look at the spirit world and how Satan's hatred of mankind led to such horrendous tragedies for Job.If we reject God, God gives us over to our sin. That is why the world is in a mess. Bible Romans 1: 22-32

4000 years before Yeshua Messiah was crucified God made a promise to be fulfilled through Yeshua  Bible Genesis 3:15 I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel    

In this prophecy God warns of Lucifer's hostility particularly against women. Gods plan is that the womans offspring (US) will rule the creation. 

God's  will is opposed by Lucifer's offspring. Lucifer's offspring are those who murder, who lie, who steal,are sexually immoral, who proudly promote themselves to the detriment of others, who pursue revenge  - basically those who break the Commandments which the timeline  shows God gave to Moses, see section "Evidence".

The timeline shows how people act as agents of Satan (Bible John 12:31) and damage people aiming to obey God (Bible John 8:39-48)  We see in Bible Genesis 4:8 Cain as an agent of Satan committing a murder. Abel was seeking to obey God by offering worship in the manner God required. Cain as an agent of Lucifer seeks to eliminate true worship of God in the murder. The prophecy that Yeshua would bruise Lucifers head at this point  unfulfilled

Lucifer through his proxy Cain had scored another victory . God saw Cain was angry but reminded Cain of mans  calling to rule and gave Cain a warning Bible Genesis 4:7

If you do well, wont it be lifted up? If you dont do well , sin crouches at the door . Its desire is for you but you are to rule over it . 

God avised Cain that if he did the right thing (offered a first born lamb a picture of Yeshua Messiah who would be sacrificed) Cain would be happy. It refers to Cain's countenance. Cain rejected the advice and the first murder was committed. Sin and Satan are synomonous - crouching at the door what a frightening picture

The Bible does not name the numerous children Adam fathered.  The evidence of many unnamed children suggests not only did Adam have regular unprotected sex with Eve but that Adam  was incestous and promiscuous as his daughters matured until after 138 years Eve bears Seth. Seth was different. Adam recognised that Seth was born in Adam's image and becaue Adam was made in Gods image therefore in Gods image.  Seth means "Substitute" or "Appointed" Seth was carrying forward the image ultimately of Yeshua Messiah to fulfil the prophecy  . 

Not only are no children named who were born in the 138 years before Seth  but no children Adam fathered in 800 years after of Eves are c  who seeks the Lord One of the daughters grows up and is taken by Cain and bears Enoch, who fathers  , Bible Genesis 4:23-24 Lamech boasts of his revenge, Bible Obad 3 Lucifers headship over mankind. Luoffspring cifer was told he was not getting away with his unholy plan. 

Lucifer would trip us up. You can check out the consequences of Adam and Eves sin and the first mention of a cherubim in Genesis 3 15-24 

Genesis 4 Adam and Eve first  two sons were Cain and Abel Away from Gods presence a way was immediately made for mankind to have access to God by offering a firstborn lamb and its fat.Abel took advantage but Cain devised his own offering which was rejected.     

and note the promise in psalm 145  as noted by  King David 1010-970 BC."The Lord is near to all those who call on him and to all who call on him in truth

How near is near? When you last saw a rainbow did you remember, did you know  this is the sign of a covenant God has made to never destroy the whole earth by flood (Bible Genesis 9) Please note in every rainbow God has used a physical phenomenon that teaches of Gods closeness. We know that a rainbow is a natural wonder caused by different wave frequencies but that there are also some wave frequencies which our eyes cannot sense but we have evidence of their existence in Radio, Television,and  Xray. 

After His resurrection Yeshua would appear or disappear example Bible Luke 24:31 Their eyes were opened and they recognised him;then he vanished out of their sight In the 40 days between His resurrection and ascension  Yeshua appeared as it where from nowhere at one ocassion to more than 500 people. 

Learning the lessons of the rainbow and applying what the Bible tells us it is logical that God and the Spirit World is all around, close  but operating  in a dimension that we can currently only see dimly through prayer and by learning to sense when the Holy Spirit prompts our thinking or perhaps if we receive a vision or dream  . 

If the Television news today is depressing you reflect that God is King- and consider the promises contained in psalm 145

The psalm starts with exalting God as "the King" , not the president of America or any other world leader. 

.As you read the psalm please note His name (God) is praised forever and ever , His name is praised every day. Gods greatness is unseaqrchable , one generation will commend Gods works to the next. His tender mercies are over all His works. The works David refers to  would include the marvels of creation and how God had intervened in the history of the Jewish Nation. 

Promises through Yeshua

The psalm tells us "The Lord is gracious, merciful,slow to anger and of great loving kindness " In my opinion the change of the word for God to Lord is speaking of that part of the Holy Trinity Jewish name  Yeshua Messiah or the westernised translation used in Ireland as Jesus

Yeshua in US

The psalm confirms the closeness of "the LORD"

The Lord is near to all those who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth He will fulfil the desire of those who fear him (respect Him as God) He also will hear their cry, and will save them  

 However the psalm also confirms a warning which is repeated many times in a timeline  

The Lord preserves all those who love Him, but He will destroy the wicked 

The timeline

God intended that mankind made in the image of God would manage Gods creation. The Bible contains a timeline revealing  there is a spirit world intent on seizing power, brutally demonstrated in our fallen creations survival of the fittest. Satans straegy is to rule by  placing mankind.in captivity   The  Adam and Eve story of disobedience to God was an initial victory for Satan which succeeded in seperating us from Gods presence. 

Some people tell us Adam and Eve are a myth and that there is no such thing as Satan. Please step back for one minute. Satan is a deceiver and will blind you to his actvity unless God opens your eyes. Bible 2 Corinthians 4:4

The timeline in the Bible reveals Gods plan including allowing Satan to have an initial victory in seperating us fromGods presence  will ultimately prove to all of creation the perfection of Gods way of righteousness justice and fairness motivated by love.

When people  reject God the Bible calls this Sin, The way sin works is  God gives people  over to their self desires,The results of abandoning our God given responsibility to love God and to love our neighbour are demonstrated all around us. Unfaithfulness to our families, cutting corners in how we develop our infrastructure, failing to share with the needy  failing to manage our litter,  Scientists tell us that  everything in the world is impacted by everything else, so a butterfly in one part can be contribute to a tornado in another. Our diobedience  manifests as Wars, rumpors of wars  and Natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. Natural disasters are ocurring with increasing frequency. Scientists tell us this is a consequence of global warming, the timeline tells us the root cause is rejection of God and that as we approach the "last days " these "signs" will increase

The story of Noah and the Ark appears in the timeline as a sign to of how God works through the creation to allow  Natural disasters  but that as per the promises  above in psalm 145 Yeshua would manifest how God is , gracious merciful slow to anger and of great loving kindness and would  fulfil a prophecy  Genesis 3.15 below

 Bible 1Peter 3 :18-20 comments the Ark meant more than being a shelter for Noah from a catastrophic world flood disaster;

Because Messiah also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God  being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit, in whom he also went and preached to the spirits in prison ,who before were disobedient when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ship was being built.In it few, that is eight souls were saved through water . This is a symbol of immersion, which now saves you - not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards GOD- through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah, who is at the right hand of God,having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him  

Breaksing the above into parts;

 The eight souls were saved (i)through water, 

(ii)not by water.

(iii) not putting away the filth of the flesh 

The eight people were saved from drowning by being safely in a boat which was able to float through water.

So if immersion does not mean washing by water What is the immersion which now saves you?

Bible 1 Corinthians 12:13 Paul argues the need to be immersed by the Holy Spirit  For in one Spirit we were all immersed into one body

What does it mean Immersion is the answer of a good conscience towards GOD

Romans 4: m25 Quoting New American Standard 1995 He who was delivered over because of our transgressions , and was raised because of our justificaion

Not all translations are as clear that justification is in the past tense. In my opinion when Yeshua Messiah died the only way He could be raised from the dead was if God raised Him. God would not have raised Yeshua back to life if there was any doubt that the prophecy of Isaiah had been fulfilled 

God's promises to Abraham (a Jew) that Abrahams seed would rescue not just Jews but the world. Then we learn the seed is Jesus and that the definition of Jew is expanded in that the sign of a Jew is no longer physical circumcision but circumcision of the heart

Temple 

God asks Moses to build a portable Tabernacle which is upgraded to a temple in Jerusalem  

In the National History of the descendants of Abraham we learn how they are divided into Judah and Israel 

The prophet Ezekiel explains how the sign of being a Jew is changed from circumcision of the flesh of men to circumcision of the hearts of men and women    

The prophet Hosea is asked to marry an unfaithful prostitute to illustrate Gods unfailing love and how this people will be from all nations not just Judah  

Yeshua Messiah was with God the Father in the beginning  as the Word

Bible John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.

Bible 1 John 1:1 That which was from from the beginning which we have heard which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched - this we proclaim concerning the Word of Life

Yeshua Messiah is bringing a new world 

Bible Revelation 1: 1-2 The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John who testifies to everything he saw that is the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Bible Revelation 19: 11-13 I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. His eyes are like blazing fire , and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that nobody knows bur he himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood and his name is the Word of God. Thearmies of heaven were following him, riding on white horsesand dressed in linen white and clean.

We have prayed Bible Matthew 6:10 "Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven "

Jesus perfectly obeyed the law, made a sacrifice of atonement for Jew and Gentile and offers US His righteousness so that without compromising God's Holiness wherever there is discord God can intervene with US! We ask the Holy Spirit to continually empower us to respond to the call of obedience of faith in Jesus

The Word and Us.God's remedy

In Romans 1:5 Paul introduces obedience that comes from faith. "Circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit not by the written code" God has intervened to provide a righteousness that is not dependant on our strict adherence to the letter of the law but our faith

Bible Romans 3:21 "righteousness apart from the law"

How do we meet the requirements of the 10 commandments Exodus 21-23 and sacrifice for sin

Bible. Romans 3:25 Paul explains that the requirement of an altar has been met in Yeshua Paul explains that God has offered Christ Jesus as a sacrifice of atonement.

Bible Romans 3:26 Paul infers even God has faith in the blood of Jesus such that justice was not compromised when the sins of people under the Old Covenant were not punished. The men like Abraham believed GOD without knowing the detail of how GOD was going to offer a sacrifice of atonement. "To demonstrate his justice at the present time to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus

Bible Romans5:9 Since we have now been justified by his blood, we shall be saved from Gods wrath through him"

Bible Romans 5:11 "Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation

Bible Romans 6:10-18

"The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives he lives to God In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore, do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer your selves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master because you are not under law but under grace.

What then shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means! Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey – whether you are slaves to sin which leads to death, or to obedience which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God that though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted You have been set free from sin and have become slaves of righteousness

Bible Romans 7 :13 But in order that sin might be recognised as sin, it produced death in me

Society does not recognise that people are sinful. Society says look at the good that is in you/me. Yes, we are made in the image of God but we die, that is why we our bodies become weaker in our seventies, as our bodies begin to wind down for the great transition.

Bible Romans 8:4 And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit

Bible Romans 8:9 You, however, are not controlled by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you and if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ but if Christ is in you your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness

Bible Romans 8:14 because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God

Bible Romans 8:19 The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed for the creation was subjected to frustration, not of its own choice but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God

Bible Romans 9:17 "For the scripture says to Pharaoh, I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth"

Bible Romans 10 Paul quotes from Deuteronomy 30:10 which says

If you obey the Lord your God and keep His commands and decrees that are written in the book of the law and turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach. It is not up in heaven, so that you must ask, who will ascend into heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so that we may obey it. No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so that you may obey it. See I set before you today life and prosperity death and destruction. For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them , I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. This day I call *heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings, and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to His voice and hold fast to Him.

(*the spiritual world also as referenced in Ezekiel above)

Bible Romans 10 :6 The righteousness that is by faith says "Do not say in your heart Who will ascend to heaven?(that is to bring Christ down)or who will descend into the deep (that is to bring Christ up from the dead)But what does it say The word is near you ; it is in your mouth and in your heart , that is the word of faith we are proclaiming : That if you confess with your mouth "Jesus is Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved

How are we to understand this teaching?

Bible Romans 6:17 Paul writes "you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching"

Bible Galatians 1:15,16 Paul writes When God, who set me apart from birth and called me by His grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not consult anyone , nor did I go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went immediately into Arabia and later returned to Damascus. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to get acquainted with Peter and stayed with him 15 days.

Bible Galatians 2:1 Fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem, this time with Barnabas I took Titus along also. I went in response to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I did this privately to those who seemed to be the leaders, for fear that I was running or had run my race in vain

It took Paul over 17 years to work out what he believed! After 50 plus years I am still working it out! In the above Romans 10 quote Paul tells us the requirements first set out in Deuteronomy 30 are met by believing and confessing. The word is near, ie God is close.

I believe many people worry whether they have enough belief. Romans 6:25 precedes the Romans 10 quote "who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification" My understanding therefore is that if Jesus had not been raised from the dead I would not be justified. My confession is that I believe Jesus died for my trespasses, and Jesus was raised because I was justified! Therefore, it is not about my extent of belief, it is about God being satisfied that my trespasses are paid for and raising Jesus from death.

What do we do now?

Bible Ephesians: 3:8,9 the purpose of the church, (the "called" of God)

"To preach to the gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in GOD, who created all things. His intent was that now through the church, the manifold wisdom of GOD should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, according to His eternal purpose which He accomplished in CHRIST JESUS our LORD. In HIM and through HIM we may approach GOD with freedom and confidence.

Paul further explains Romans16:25,26,27 "the proclamation of JESUS CHRIST, according to the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal GOD, so that all nations might believe and obey HIM- to the only wise GOD be glory for ever through JESUS CHRIST AMEN"

What is the meaning of Jew? The original meaning to be a Jew means being part of a covenant community "called by God"- descendants of Abraham. As I show below the meaning of Jew has been expanded.

The timeline records; National captivity in Egypt , National rescue led by Moses 1446BC (Bible the Exodus:1-15), capturing land in present day Israel ,civil war and division into two nations Israel and Judah. After the division of Israel and Judah 930BC the northern tribes Israel conquered and the population absorbed into non-Jewish (Gentile) Nations to this day.

The southern tribes (Judah) conquered by Assyria. Assyria subsequently merged into Babylon (present day Iran) Unlike the Northern tribes the Southern tribes retained their "JEW" identity despite events like the Holocaust so horrifically documented in various museums today including those located at Auschwitz, Berlin, and Jerusalem

Israel/Palestine so bitterly contested today came into Byzantine control after the Jews were evicted by the Roman emperor Hadrian AD 135. Readers from the UK please note the Hadrian who evicted the Jews from Jerusalem was the builder of Hadrian's wall still standing between England and Scotland today. Jerusalem was renamed Aelia Capitolina, in honour of the family of Hadrian's family "Aelia" and Jupiter "Capitolinus" the chief Roman god.

Byzantine control was replaced by Arab Caliphate, followed by the Crusaders, then the Mamluks, after which the Ottoman empire 1517 until British control in 1917. The Balfour Declaration 1917 proposed the establishment of a National home for the Jewish people with equal rights for the existing non-Jewish population. In 1947 the United Nations proposed dividing land between Jewish and Arab states. Since 1948 wars have been fought, many thousands of Palestinians have been displaced whilst Jews throughout the world have been returning and building Israel as a Jewish State.

The message in the Bible is for all Nationalities all religous traditions and none. In the section "Many faiths and none" I have looked at various faiths/thinking patterns not saying I know best rather open to correction and motivated by wanting to share Gods love and to be a vehicle of His purposes . People are people first It should not be surprising that all religons share aspects about God and I comment from my perspective as a Christian always respectfully.Please email any insights which you feel may help future updates to david@jebb.ie

The Jewish leadership not only rejected Jesus claims to be the son of God spoken of in the historic Tanakh documents but incited the Roman army of occupation to carry out a mock trial and execute Jesus by crucifixion.

The resurrection of Jesus launched a movement which became known by a Greek word the "Ecclesia" Assembly of those called.

Today Ecclesia translates to "Church"- Assembly of those Called to follow God.

Please note/compare with the meaning of Church "Assembly of those Called to follow God."

with the meaning of Jew "Community Called to follow God"

The fact that Jesus (Yeshua Messiah) died, rose again from death and today not only rules our Universe but plans to return to rule a new heaven and new earth is exciting. To help those who think this to too good to be true please look at the section "Evidence" .

The Bible reveals God's intention of through Yeshua Messiah moving from the Spirit world to physical men and women in the image of Yeshua perfectly managing new heavens and a new earth. Today the Spirit world is only seperated by a "veil" but as Yeshua has taught us to pray "thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven"  Glimpses behind the veil show dazzling glory but also spirits whose intention is to thwart Gods intentions by surplanting our destiny to rule with Yeshua, surplanting values of righteousness justice and fairness underpinned by love, values demonstrated through the timeline of a family which today has expanded to include "Us!" This is an exciting prospect.

This family is cronicled through a timeline recorded in the scriptures assembled as shown under the first section "How God is speaking". Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah , Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Gideon, Samuel, Saul, David. These are some of the real life stories teaching it is not enough to talk about values, values must be demonstrated and learnt by experiencing the untidyness of life in real people.

For example the Covenant made with Abram Bible Genesis 17:2-5 (exalted father of one family) later name changed to Abraham (Father of a multitude of Nations ) and will multiply you exceedingly that the world will be blessed through "His seed"   Sarai (my princess to become Sarah Princess/Noble woman Genesis 17:16 and she shall be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her The covenant with Abraham is to be expanded through Isaac his son who is supernaturally  born after Abraham and Sarah are too old to naturally have a child

If that was not hard enough God instructs Abraham to sacrifice this child. Wow how can this make sense if Abrahams seed is to bless the world until we learn that Abraham is told to travel three days  and make the sacrifice at Mount Moriah.  That meant nothing to me until I visited Jerusalem and learnt that Mount Moriah is the region where Yeshua was to be crucified. Combine this information with the fact that Abraham is provided with a lamb as a substitute - just as Yeshua would be a substitute for Us!

Isaac gets married to Rachel  who has twins, the elder Esau, the younger Jacob who cheats his brother Esau of the birthright due by natural birth as the first to be born as son Isaac. Jacob has an encounter with God and his name is changed to "Israel" (one who contends with God)

Jacob (Israel) has  12 sons , Joseph has dreams of ruling over his brothers, they are not pleased sell Joseph into slavery but Joseph after some adventures ends up not only ruling over his brothers but over the then mighty nation of Egypt.

The family of Israel fall into slavery and God provides a baby called Moses. Moses is protected in an Ark until found by the Pharohs daughter and raised as an adopted Prince. After 40 years he carries out a murder and is forced to flee for his life spending 40 years in exile.  God instructs Moses to confront Pharoh and using "signs and wonders" :Pharoh is persuaded to release all the slaves. The slaves are miraculously saved 1corinthians 10:1-2 Hebrews 11:29

The next 40 years the "delivered" slaves are given an audience with God but break their promises to live  obedience to His laws (10 commandments) God provides a tabernacle as a place where God will come to meet His people. This is a copy of what is in glory containing a veil between the inner and outer section to illustrate the narrow veil seperating the supernatural and including models of cherubims spirit forms still serving God today

There is a high Priest who provides sacrifices so that sin is atoned for as Yeshua would provide a once only sacrifice at the cross

The people now identified as "the children of Israel" encounter "Joshua as they enter the "promised land" This supernatural encounter displays the glory in which Yeshua was dwelling. Further promises to obey God are broken with disasterous consequences recorded  in Judges Samuel and Kings. Disobedience, chaos, captivity death.  Prophets appear Isaiah tells us the covenants made with Isaac on behalf of the children of Israel are to be wrapped up /laws sealed . There is a virgin birth to precede an imminent rescue of Israel  and a further virgin birth of Yeshua Messiah Jeremiah tells of a new covenant.

THe definition of Israel is to be extended, no longer circumcision of the flesh but circumcision of the heart Ezekiel 36

Zechariah Yeshua shall ride into Jerusalem on an unbroken colt (an impossible promise but totally fulfilled)

THe gospels provide four seperate accounts of the life of Yeshua Messiah and His claims to be introducing His new kingdom  over all the world

Acts written by Luke explains how when Yeshua appeared risen from death the initial expectation was that the new kingdom was for the Jews and how Yeshua says no First Judea and Israel the the whold world

The Word and Us

   Society rejoices in our youth and their sporting abilities  demonstrated in activities such as football, athletics,motor racing  and other sporting activites in them selves  an "escape" mostly wholesome teaching values of self discipline and  team spirit. However in my opinion the media have overhyped sport to such an extent that the meaning life has become distorted into protecting my rights including the right to  assisted death.. Many seek to avoid the evidence  that as we age we begin to fail  physically and mentally. Medicine continues to make great strides and drugs of all types are used as an "escape" but  those who survive into their nineties will require nursing care,  ultimately our bodies totally decay.  The Good News, the Amazing News is that God who made us wants to provide living water

This concept of living water was mentioned by the prophet Jeremiah many centuries before Jesus 

Bible Jeremiah 2:13 For my people have committed two evils:they have forsaken ma the spring of living waters and cut out cisterns for them selves, broken cisterns that can't hold water. If you are doing your best to live life to the full but sense the cisterns are broken  read on about the good news which Jesus brought centuries later to a social outcast.

Jesus existed as God from the beginning. At the point when Jesus was born from the blessed virgin Mary God became His father . (Psalm2)

God raised Jesus from death "no more to return to corruption (Acts 13:34) Fufilling Psalm 16:10 For you will not leave my soul in Sheol,neith will you allow your holy one to see corruption
