Grace. A Free Ticket? – Part 2

Now that you’ve read Part 1, one might still wonder if that “free ticket” to salvation is as good as it seemed. If any doubts linger, it is highly suggested that you proceed with Part 2 of our investigation.

Scriptures indicate that our Inheritance cannot be obtained without a sinless sacrifice. The process required that father Yahweh give Yahu Yahweh all things, even his sacred name, and then Yahu, in turn, would pass on these things as an inheritance in a conditional will.

Genesis 26:1-5 confirms that the covenant with Abraham was conditional when it reports that Yahweh told Isaak that he would fulfill the promises “BECAUSE Abraham listened to my voice and obeyed my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”

Yet even Abraham was a sinner, for all have sinned. Like the rest of us, he must come into the Eternal Inheritance by grace and by means of the messiah.

Torah of Moses Brings Curse
Further requirements were attached to the promises given to Abraham because of transgression (Gal. 3:18-19). These conditions were given in the form of the Torah of Moses or Old Covenant made at Mount Sinai and the “works of the Law (Torah)” which were added thereto (Rom. 9:32; Gal. 2:16, 3:2, 5, 10), i.e., as found in the books of the Torah. The covenant at Mount Sinai and works of the Torah did two things:

Grace. A Free Ticket? – Part 1

In our two previous posts, “Paul and the Law,” Part 1 and Part 2, the details were laid out regarding the Torah of Moses (the Law, Old Covenant) and its relationship to the Abrahamic Covenants of Promise.

In the New Testament, Paul also seems to stress the concept of grace and that we are no longer under “the Law.”

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law (Torah of Moses), but under grace. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? The deity forbid. (Romans 6:14-15)

Does grace provide a free ticket to salvation?

If you’re not sure about the answer, let us proceed to investigate the truth of the matter.

Paul and the Law – Part 2

After perusing Part 1, one might be thinking, “Paul’s writings are just a bit confusing. Why don’t we just play it safe and attempt to keep ‘The Law’ (Torah of Moses) as best as we can along with all of its works. Yahweh knows what is in our hearts and he will surely forgive any ignorance or failings on our part. When the time is right, Yahweh will reveal his truth to us and we will adjust our actions accordingly.”

Even if one were to have this attitude it would be wise to note:

For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. (James 2:10)

Paul and the Law – Part 1

Currently, there seems to exist a serious lack of understanding regarding the concept of the Torah of Moses (the Law, Old Covenant) and its relationship to the Abrahamic Covenants of Promise (Torah of Trust).

Without this understanding it is virtually impossible for one to properly discuss the terms “Abrahamic Covenants of Promise,” “The Law,” “Works of the Law,” “Torah of Moses,” “Old Covenant,” and  “New Covenant.”

If one is interested in delving deeper into this subject then it is highly suggested you join our investigation as we uncover the facts concerning “The Law.”

The Prevailing Viewpoints
Let’s first take a look at some of the prevailing viewpoints held by various individuals and groups.

• Some believe that the Law (Torah of Moses, Old Covenant) has been completely done away with, including the Ten Commandments, and that we are now under grace.

• Others maintain that the Law (Torah of Moses, Old Covenant) is still in force and must be adhered to including all of the works that are contained within it.

The Millennial Judgment Day

It is apparent that there seems to be a widespread misunderstanding of the events occurring after Yahushua the messiah’s death that lead up to the earthly arrival of father Yahweh.

The sequence of events expounded by many goes something like this:

  Just before the return of Yahushua the messiah there will take place a period of time called the Great Tribulation.

Multiple Names of Salvation?

According to Scriptures, is there more than one name that can be called upon for salvation?

This question arises from the belief that “Yah,” as seen in the Messiah’s name (Yahushua or Yahshua), contains a shortened form of the Father’s name, Yahweh. Thus, “Yah” is equivalent to “Yahweh.” For salvation, this implies that both Yahushua and its variant, Yahshua, are equivalent to Yahweh.

Many people hold the view that, besides Yahweh, the various names used all carry the same significance, suggesting that any of these names could effectively lead to salvation. Names like Yeshua and Jesus are also considered sufficient for this purpose.

While this reasoning aligns with the beliefs of many, a deeper examination of the Scriptures reveals a different conclusion. This study aims to explore what the Scriptures truly say about this matter.

What Name?
Let’s start with some basics. One may ask, “What name was being utilized for salvation before Yahushua the Messiah came in the flesh?” Continue reading “Multiple Names of Salvation?”

Yahweh Prepping 101

So you think you’re prepped and ready to go. You may be prepared to survive a doomsday scenario by making sure you are stocked adequately with food and ammo, but that’s not actually the important prepping.

In reality, the essential prepping is for one to be prepared to do Yahweh’s work. This means you got a job to do, and if you are a teacher of Yahweh’s assemblies, it would be helpful if you knew what your job was.

Sad to say, based upon what’s being taught by the leaders of the various Sacred Name groups today, there just doesn’t seem to be many teachers who actually know what their job should be. Some think they are doing their job but, unfortunately, are not prepped with enough of Yahweh’s truth to get the job done.

About the Name Yahweh

yhwh-11Some people need clarification about the issue of whether we can know the name of the creator. Some teach that it is impossible to attain this information. Some say the evidence reveals his name to be Yahweh, but the pronunciation cannot be known with certainty.

Some go so far as to say we shouldn’t even attempt to use the name Yahweh nor try to pronounce it, as it would disparage the creator. The logic would be that we are too ignorant and should not use guesswork when communicating with our creator. Besides, the creator recognizes our handicaps and hopeless situation, forgiving us for not obeying his instruction to know and proclaim his name. The following is just one scriptural verse of many that contradict such logic.

For it will be (that) ALL WHO WILL CALL ON THE NAME YAHWEH  SHALL BE SAVED. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem will be salvation, as Yahweh  has said, and among the saved who Yahweh  will call. (Joel 2:32)
