How Do We Love Our Elohim?

I am married and I love my husband.  On our wedding day we both agreed to our marriage covenant and all its rules and restrictions.  There are things that are expected from both of us.  If he does his part and I don't do my part then our marriage will not go well.   If I do not love him the way he needs to be loved but if I decide what he needs without listening to him then I do not truly love him, I am being selfish.

Over the years I have come to realize I do not like household items for gifts.  I do not wish to receive a vacuum cleaner as a gift for me.   It is a not something that shows that my husband has been listening to me.  I am a chocolates, jewelry, flowers and cards kind of woman.  I want him to listen to me when I talk and hear of things that my heart holds dear and buy me a gift that goes along with my interests.  And that goes the same for me.  If my husband talks about golfing and goes golfing but I always buy him hunting supplies, which he is not a hunter, then my heart has not been in tune to his.  I am loving him my way, not how he has asked me.  It is a two way street that we both have to walk.  I do for him and he does for me. I want to love him how he wants to be loved. 

That is the same way it is with our covenant with our Elohim.  My marriage to my husband is a copy of the marriage covenant to our Elohim.  I am to love Him how he has told me to love Him.  If I go against His ways that He has given in the Bible, how He has asked me to love Him, then I am not listening to Him.  I am not in tune with Him.  I am loving Him my way.  And as we know in marriage that does not go well.  When the Israelites agreed to the Commandments at the foot of the Mountain.  They were coming into a marriage covenant. His was their Elohim and they were to be His people.  He would do for them and they would do for Him.  Give and take.  In Deuteronomy 6 it says:

Deu 6:1
Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it:
Deu 6:2
That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.
Deu 6:3Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
Deu 6:4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
Deu 6:5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Deu 6:6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:  

Verse 5 says "love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might."


I believe Yeshua quoted that in the New Testament.  Remember He is Yahweh, he repeatedly said that They are One.  He only says what the Father says.  The Father's Words are in the Old Testament. The New Testament wasn't written until twenty and more years later.  So the only Words that are quoted in all the New Testament are from the Old.  Verse 6 "shall be in thine heart."  They were to write them on their heart.  So how were they to love Him?  By keeping his commandments, statutes, etc.  "If you love me, keep my commandments." Joh 14:15.  What commandments?  Old Testament commandments.  They are His instructions for righteousness. 


Deu 11:13

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

1Jn 3:16 By this we have known love, because He laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
1Jn 3:17 But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his tender affections from him, how does the love of Elohim stay in him?
1Jn 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.  
Quoted from Deut. 15:7-11. 

Mat 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
Mat 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Quoted from Deut 6:5.

His instructions for righteousness.  That is what the Torah is about, how to love Him and love our neighbor.  Just like we have the laws of this country.  If we abide in these laws it keeps us on the path. If we break the law of speeding and you are pulled over and the cop lets you off the hook.  Does that mean you go off and speed again?  No, you have been given grace and therefore you should drive off with the heart of obeying. 

What amazes me is so many people have been engrained with "we don't have to keep the law". But have you ever sat down and read the them? They are beautiful.  The Way for His people to live, a path.  When we keep them it shows that we love Him.  Just like when my husband asks something of me.  With all my heart I try to do it to his requirements, what he has asked, because he loves me and I love him.  We need to love our Father, to His requirements, how he has asked.

Deu 10:12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
Deu 10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good.

Crucified Life Ministries

I don't remember how I came upon this website, but it wasn't a coincidence.  If you didn't know there is no word in Hebrew for coincidence.  This website is the only website where I know that I am getting pure Truth.  I have never in all my life of being in the church received such wisdom and understanding.  Every week the Jewish people read a section of the Torah. My family and I sit down every Sabbath and we read the Torah portion.  I bought the Complete Jewish Bible by David H. Stern and in the Torah it is sectioned off by Torah portions for that week.  Real handy.  The folllowing Sunday or 1st day I cannot get on the internet fast enough to see what was written in the commentary about the previous Torah portion.  This website blesses me so much.  I hope it blesses you as much.

The Truth that the church Doesn't Teach

I came across the best teaching the last week.  It is Jim Staley laying out the Truth of the Bible.  The True plan of Salvation.  There is nothing I can add to it.  It is nine parts about ten minutes each.  Please watch and let the Truth unfold before your eyes and ears.  Because of this Truth not being taught 7/8 of the bible is shut to your understanding (taken from part 9).  That is a scary thing.  That explains to me why for all my life I would gloss over so much scripture while saying that does not partain to me.  What a lie I have been told Jer. 16:19.  Please watch and come to the true understanding of His Plan of Salvation.

I do want to clarify two things from the videos. Paul is from the tribe of Benjamin (Romans 11:1) and Judah still has the scepter (Gen 49:10).  Shiloh is Yeshua and we have not been gathered unto Him yet, that is in the millenium.

The Truth of Galations

The Book of Galations teaches against Salvation through the Law, not against Obedience to His Law. There is a difference. (from The Great Commission.pdf  http://www.119ministries.com/)

Covenant

A bride who is loved will do anything for her Husband.

Written by Jana D. Pindell

Spoiled Children

Spoiled children run around expecting everything but doing nothing.  That is the House of Israel.  Nowhere in scripture does it say our Father's solution to bring back the House of Israel together with the House of Judah included abolishing the commandments.  That is like saying to a child that misbehaves okay no more rules. No, a child that loves will be obedient and do what what his Father says to do.

Marriage, Adultery and Remarriage

The House of Israel was called His Bride. He says He was the Husband Isa. 54:5.  But she committed adultery Jer. 3:8.  The Law states when a woman commits adultery and her husband is alive, she is an adulteress, unless her husband dies. Then she is free from the law Rom 7. Yeshua died on the cross. Now He can remarry her. If you don't know the Old Testament, you won't undertand the New.  Especially what Paul wrote.
