PCIM

Acts 2; 22- 36 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
23Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: 24Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it. 25For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
26Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
27Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
28Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.
29Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.30Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; 31He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.32This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. 33Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.34For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,35Until I make thy foes thy footstool.36Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Ref.Gen.;3-15== Isa.;53== Ps.; 22.

God has established His Covenant in the earth.Every thing He does is determined by this Covenant.
Jesus of Nazareth was born into this world, died on the cross. Paid the sin price, both physical and Spiritual, and was raised from the dead because of the Covenant that God made with man.

God does not show partiality by choosing certain people to save or heal.
His blessings are for all the people who meet the conditions of the covenant. 1 Peter;2,24
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
He personally bore our sins in His [own] body on the tree [as on an altar and offered Himself on it], that we might die (cease to exist) to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed.
Jesus, The Perfect Man, and all GOD, BECAME SIN SO YOU AND I COULD BE FREE, IF WE CHOOSE.

God has established His Covenant.....for Salvation....,for Healing....
for Deliverance,...Prosperity... and these provisions of the Covenant are
set out in God's Word. His Word is His Covenant, His Bond. when you consider A person's Word, you consider his integrity:will he do what he says? is his word good? is his name good? A person's name is judged as good or bad by whether or not he keeps his word. Your name doesn't
make your word good. your word makes your name good.

Herein lies the power in the name of Jesus; His Name is good because His
word is good. God has magnified His Word ,even above His Name.

[Psalms 138:2]
I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving kindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

I will worship toward Your holy temple and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your truth and faithfulness; for You have exalted above all else Your name and Your word and You have magnified Your word above all Your name!

IN JESUS MY LORD. Parsonsmom

Shalom Sister Aretta
Here are some verses and comments on this subject of Our covenant gaurding Master Yahweh.
Acts 2 Verse 22
Listen, Israel: This is how the “Sh’ma”, the cornerstone of Hebraic faith, begins. (Deut. 6:4) This would have caught their attention. It continues by saying that “YHWH is one, meaning a compond unity from the same substance”. Kefa’s description of Yahshua is “a man from Elohim”. He has an audience of probably a million people at this feast.
The gospel of "The kingdom" is that Yahshua has come as a very unique, chosen vessel to restore the lost Kingdom to Israel (Jacob's Restoration Issiah 49).
Shaul/Paul begins with scattered Yahudah (Judah), because they are the easiest to recognize,
Gen 49:10
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh (Yahshua)come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
This is speaking about Judah's stead fastness in the identifying things of Yahweh like the seventh day Sabbath/Holy feast etc.., even to the time of the coming of Yahshua the first time and second coming
Judah having preserved the knowledge of their identity and heritage better than the rest of Israel which was swollowed up by gentile nations.
Hosea 8:8 Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.

Acts 2 Verse 29.
Shavuoth (Penticost) is the rememberance of the giving of the Yahweh breathed Instructions at Mt, Sini, though by tradition Shavuoth (Penticost) was actually the anniversary of David’s death! David’s flesh did see corruption, but through David’s seed—His descendant Yahshua, who continued his line and thus “kept him alive”, this does indirectly apply to David as well. In one sense YHWH does not distinguish descendants from ancestors, unless the ancestors hate Him and a descendant breaks away from that and begins to follow Him. He looks on us as Avraham, so the promises to him apply to us. The promises to David’s son (e.g., 1 Chron. 17:11-12; Psalm 2; Psalm 110) could apply to Shlomo/Soloman if he met the conditions; if not, they had to wait for a later descendant. But what Yahshua accomplished for David’s household then applied to anyone in that household either before or after Him.
Acts 2:30
“Since David was a prophet, he knew that Elohim was swearing an oath to him, ‘From the fruit [that comes] from within your body I will seat [the Messiah] upon your throne.’ [Psalm 132:11]
Compare 2 Shmu’el 7:12-13. The Messiah: this explanatory remark is in the Greek text, but not the Aramaic, but it is a correct inference that is upheld by verse 31, though it has wider applications as well:
Acts 2:36
Whole House: while Yahudah was responsible for killing Him, and the House of David needed someone to restore it to its lost estate/Twelve Tribes in unity (James 1:1), it was also because the Northern Kingdom who had been swallowed up among the gentiles, losing their idenity needed redemption that Yahshua had to die. Now the promise had been fulfilled that if a man from David’s lineage would walk before YHWH in truth and with His whole heart, the Kingdom would continue on (1 Kings 2:4), so the Kingdom had now been restored positionally and shall be literally!

Issiah 49:5 And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
Acts 15:13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
Ya'acov/James the leader of the beliveing Jerusalem assembly believed in the covenant's of Yahweh recorded by the Prophets of Y'israel.
The question for us today, will we believe?

Shalom

Dear Sister Aretta,

I think we also have to keep in mind that the New Covenant is the blood of Jesus Christ shed for our sins. Matthew 26 records the Last Supper. Look at verse 28: "For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins."

The prophet Jeremiah had predicted such a covenant in Jeremiah 31:31-34.

Look also at the following two verses from Hebrews:

Hebrews 8:6-7 tells us that Jesus "is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second."

Hebrewss 13:20-21 was the benediction that my home pastor used when I was growing up at the end of many services: "Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is pleasing in his sight, throuh Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen" I love that!!!

God bless you, Sis!

Bless be Yahweh, the Father and provider of our Spotless Lamb.
We must decrease and allow His Word to reign in our hearts by true faith knowing that He is Yahweh and a rewarder to all that diligently seek Him.
Let us rightly divide His scriptures that we speak according to the Law and Prophetic testimonys of faithful men who spoke by the inspiration of Yahweh.
The Law of Yahweh is perfect! Ps 19:7
The Torah of Yahweh is perfect, returning
the being: the testimony of Yahweh is sure,
making wise the simple
Humanity is not!
Hebrews 8:6-8 But now Yahshua ha Moshiach (the Messiah) has obtained a greater service, by which He also is the Mediator of a more
advantageous brit(covenant), which was given
as Torah based upon more
advantageous promises.
7 For if that first brit people had been
faultless, then should no place have been
sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, He
says, Behold, the days come,
says the Master Yahweh, when I
will make a Brit Chadasha (Renewed Covenant) with
Beit(House) Yisrael and with Beit
Yahudah:
Notice who Yahweh is making this covenant with, James knew this as well as Paul when Paul said the two are now made one(Ephesians 2:.13 But now in Moshiach Yahshua you who
sometimes were far off are made
near by the dahm(Blood) of Moshiach.
14 For He is our shalom, who has made
both echad(one), and has broken down
the middle wall of partition between
us;
15 Having abolished in His flesh
the enmity, even the law of
commandments contained in
human dogma(man-made rules); for to make in
Himself from the two one renewed
man, so making shalom;
16 And that He might reconcile both
to Yahweh in one body by the execution
stake, having slain the enmity through
it:
17 And came and proclaimed shalom to
you who were far off, (far/near; see Daniel chapter 9)
and to them that were near. (Judah-near, Israel-far)
18 For through Him we both have
access by one Ruach to Abba.
Two what/who?
Shalom

Shalom again
I notice your Revelation scripture at the bottom of your post. Here is one that might go with that one in verse 17.
When Yahshua"s bride makes herself ready, then the world systems will hate her for divorcing them and returning to her true Husband who has always loved her.
Rev. 12:17. And the dragon was provoked to anger over the woman, and went off to prepare for battle with the remainder of her descendants, who keep the commandments of YHWH and hold fast to the testimony of Yahshua the Messiah.

Both are necessary. We are not even considered the seed of Israel unless we both have the testimony of Yahshua and keep the commandments. If we are not doing both, the dragon does not bother about us, for we are no threat to him. If he can afford to ignore us, we are accomplishing nothing. Doing both will get him angry, but it is bait for the trap that will do him in. Remember that this is a vision, so we are not talking about a literal fire-breathing dragon with scales and wings. It represents a system made up of lawless men, whose power base we threaten when we keep the Torah which means Loving Instructions as Dawid's heart panted after, since we undercut their economic base by stopping all commerce on the Sabbath, neglecting to bolster their income by not following man-made pagan holidays, etc.
The stealth religious demons know that when Yahshua is enthroned, they will all have to submit to Him, and they want to defer that as long as they can by getting us to neglect one or the other of these elements (commandments or testimony of the risen Yahshua).
Islam denys the Father Yahweh, and His Son Yahshua, saying allah is god and he has no son.
Jews and Christians do not deny both.
Yahweh is not mocked, He will and is overseeing the return of His beloved Y'israel by the restoration of all things through His eternal Spirit.
Be strong in faith sister.
Shalom.

Shalom to you, Rabbi!

Thank you for sharing more of these wonderful Scriptures and your thoughts with us on the covenant. I dearly love the term Abba, a very endearing and intimate term for Father or Daddy or Papa. We are told that we can come before the Lord knowing that if we truly have complete faith in the Yeshua, we are His children. Man do I ever love that!

Right now I'm trying and definitely failing to remember the English translation of the Hebrew word Ruach. I did take some Hebrew, but that was many years ago, and I am ashamed to say that I did not do very well with it. Would you help me there, please?

I remembered it just a minute ago, after I had posted the private message to you. Thanks!

Matthew 26:26 And as they were eating, Yahshua took
lechem (bread), and made the bracha (blessing Abba Yahweh for providing and santifying), and broke
it, and gave it to the talmidim (Torah disiplined ones), and said,
Take, eat; this is My body.
27 And He took the cup, and gave hodu,
and gave it to them, saying, Drink all of
it;
28 For this is My dahm (Blood) of the Brit
Chadasha (Renewed Covenant) that is shed for many for the
remission of sins.
29 But I say to you, I will not drink of this
fruit of the vine again, until that day
when I drink it new (an example of the word new really meaning renewed. like in new moon/renewed moon) with you in My
Abba’s malchut (Kingdom).

The term for “body” (v. 26) in both Hebrew and Greek can refer to that of either a man or an animal. In Greek it is specifically used of an animal that has been slaughtered. Since those in charge of the Temple—essentially those to whom Rome sold positions because they were the highest bidders—were corrupt, and knowing he would soon be tried by a high priest who had no right to that position, Yahshua, like the Tzadoqim and Essenes, was recognizing that the days of the Temple being usable as a valid expression of dedication to YHWH were numbered at best. In the Dead Sea Scrolls, the groups that had already begun boycotting it recognized the table as the equivalent of the altar when the altar was not accessible—or, in their understanding, impure. The P’rushim (and their successors, the Rabbis) later adopted the same interpretation once the Temple was destroyed. The table is a place of fellowship and oneness, especially in Middle Eastern cultures. The Jews today still say that the main reason the Temple was destroyed was because everyone in that day was more interested in his own interpretations of Scripture, and hated those with other opinions without just cause. This is the root picture—the undercurrent beneath the physical Temple services anyway. YHWH (The four transliterated letters of the tetragrmaton without the vowel points, this is replaced in most western scrips over 6'000 times as capital L.O.R.D.) says that ultimately He does not desire sacrificial offerings, but obedience (in which case most offerings would be unnecessary) and love for Himself and for one another. When Yithro (Jethro) taught Moshe to build altars, there were no individual sin offerings (Ex. 18:12); there were not meant to be. They only offered ascending offerings and ate bread. These were the ones truly intended, so we could restore the fellowship Adam had broken. This does not negate the literal offerings, but Yahshua set up in advance another way to express the same sentiments during the hiatus when the Temple would not be present because the House was leprous (sinful) and had to be taken apart for a time. What he is saying here is not the “hocus-pocus” (a corruption of the Latin version of “this is my body”) with which the Roman church has endowed these words, but rather, Yahweh's Passover in remeberance of His death to be much observe in it's season as describe in Torah (Loving Instructions".
“As I see it, this is an offering when two or three are gathered in His Name. His Ruach (Spirit) and Emet (Truth) will be in our mist as we walk out our faith. This is how we can still go to the Temple when there is no Temple to go to.” This is “His” body, “His” blood—his way to keep an “active altar” in our exile. It is, in his eyes, not only as valid, but possibly even more valid than bringing the “bodies and blood” of animals to the altar, because it is what all the Temple services pointed to—a restoration of fellowship with one another as one body, and ultimately with YHWH as well. This is a way we as a people can continue to offer ourselves up to YHWH in the meantime.
New every morning!
Oh Yahweh, lover of my soul. Your love is renewed toward us every day!
Baruch Ha shem Yahweh (YHWH).
Blessed is the name of Yahweh!

Thank you Parsons Mon for starting this thread about the Etablished Covenant. I believe as you and Sister Graceblest do that as born again belivers we should walk out our part of the kutubah/covenant (more specific a Hebraic wedding contract).
This will require growing in the grace and knowlege of Yahshua our Master (A Good Boss who pre-wrote the loving instructions for us to walk in).
I write this to your post, not that you don't already know this, but to bring things to your rememberance.
May Yahweh's ahava (love) embrace you and all who love His appearing!
B'shem Yahshua.
In the name of Yahshua.
Eph.2:8 For by unmerited favor are you saved
through emunah (verb;faith, action); and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of Yahweh:
9 Not by our mitzvoth, lest any man
should boast.
(not by our thoughts and imaginations of right and wrong)
10 For we are His masterpiece, recreated
in the Moshiach Yahshua to tov (good) mitzvoth,
which Yahweh has ordained beforehand that
we should perform as our halacha (way to walk).

Let's take a break!
(Remember before Mt Sini or the Leviticus preisthood happened, the clean animals came on the Ark by sevens.
Heres a couple of fun trivia questions for you;
#1 Did Noach sacrifice any animal to Yahweh?
#2 If yes, what kind did he offer?
[b]Hint-Gen 8:20

Let us contnue reading and remember we are no longer gentiles, less we continue to behave like we have in the past! Amein!11 [/b]

Eph 2:11 A- Therefore remember, that you being in
times past gentiles in the flesh,
who are called the Uncircumcision
( Uncircumcision; a Greek word used here akrobustia, meaning to cast away. uncircumcision with the Hebrew thought of casting away one's sign of Israelite inheiritance. Spiritualy speaking; we understand when a heart that has been circumcised and then grows over again with the old flesh it is said to have fallen from it's first love).

Eph 2:11 B- by those called the Brit-Milah (circumcised) in the flesh
made by hands.

Do you know there are people who like s.a.tan want you to continue to walk as unregenrated gentiles, not being subject to the Eternal Law of the Kingdom of Yahshua our Master?
This is a great lie to decieve the world into beliveing they can accept the King of Glory and continue in lawlessness!

Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the elementary
principles of the teaching of the
Moshiach (Annointed One), let us go on to perfection; not
laying again the foundation of teshuvah (turn/repent)
from past evil works, and of emunah
towards Yahweh,
2 Of the teachings of mikvot(commandments), and of
laying on of hands, and of our
resurrection from the dead, and of eternal
mishpat.

These things are necessary and good, but to remain in primary teachings without going on in victory through the power of Yahweh is insanity.
A good definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting differant results!
This is another destructive pattern Rabbi Shaul/Paul is warning us about, this is a warning about staying in a comfort zone and away from obediance to the Loving Instructions that would cause us to be persicuted as in unacepted by family, friends society/goverments, s.a.tan's kingdom of darkness etc...

1 Peter 4:4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
When we go beyond the elemetary things mentioned here, and begin to walk obediant to His Instructions this WILL happen to you as I know you have experienced some of this already and more as we continue IN HIM.
John 8:31 ¶ Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
May we beleive Yahshua's own words!
33 They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
We are quick to criticise these Jews that were rightfully wicked, but many proud professing belivers use the same tactics except they say they believe in the Messiah who rose from the dead, therefore we are children of God.
What would Yahshua say concerning this responce?
Before we read Yahshua's answer let us look at the words of Rav Paul and Elder James;
Romans 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

Below is somthing very important to consider in our journey into all Truth.
Yahshua said;
Luke 16:31 And He said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
Again the time of the false prophets of b.a.a.l. are coming to a show down with the Spirit of Eliyahu (Elijah) before the great and terrible day Of Yahweh comes (Ya'acov's [Jacob's] trouble).
