The Word of YHWH by The Word of YHWH The Word (freda ebook reader .txt) 📖

for the expansion of “the Church,” the Apostles of God sent funds to help the poor in the areas of need, especially in Judea during the sabbatical years. Unfortunately, the Pharisees of today quote passages to support their reason for receiving an income. 1Corinthians 9:14 Then again, since when are the wolves entitled to that which belongs to The Shepherd? Acts 20:29, 1Thessalonians 2:3-5 These overseers only want to follow where the Apostles did not go. 1Corinthians 9:15, 4:16 Let us recall the model they ought to have followed:2Thessalonians 3:7 “For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; 8 Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: 9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.” Acts 20:34

 

Brothers, if we pay the mouth to do the Work then we are saying the rest of the Body is less important. We are all important; in this case, the mouth is only saying what God is commanding. 1Peter 4:11 So then, if we pay the mouth, we have to pay the rest of the Body. The point being made is that we now have a greater Temple to make our offerings to The Holy Father through The Holy Spirit. Hebrews 8:1-13

 

When it comes to tithing, the proper thing to do is to distribute the funds in the manner we see fit within the needs of our community and with the organizations that are working to help those in need. Do this between you and our High Priest, The Overseer of our souls. 1Peter 2:25 But whatever you do, do not get carried away and start your own religion! 1Corinthians 9:18 Let us remember, we are being called to break the vicious system after our Redeemer breaks for us the chains of captivity.

 

Therefore, when we meet, let us make sure that money is absent for The Truth to be present. Given the scarcity of the Firstfruits, if we cannot find others within the Faith, we are to meet with others outside the four walls to do the Work of The Spirit. When we greet others, let us no longer call ourselves Jews, Evangelists, Baptists, Seventh Day Adventists, or the like. This is what the puppets used to divide us as they tore The Truth apart. Instead, let us say that we are on the way to the Baptism of our Repentance until we can confidently say that we are of The Christ.

 

Let us make all efforts to be a role model for those who follow. 1Peter 2:12 At times, we might have to put up with the criticism from the hired hand. We should nonetheless take their advice with a grain of salt even as they remain tethered behind. Matthew 7:3-5 Ultimately, our wisdom will be proven right by our actions and holiness by our improvements. Luke 7:35

 

Our hope is not for anyone to stay behind however, there remains a priority. After you, there are those whom you will help bring to God. Thereafter, we can help the puppets cut their strings even if they fight back to cut our journey short. Matthew 24:9, 2Timothy 3:12-13 In the end, when we wake-up, we will have done our part and be given the crown that is commensurate with the Work. 2Timothy 4:8

 

Imagine the peace and joy that comes from knowing that God is amongst us. Imagine the day when we meet all the holy prophets and apostles, and all those who gave their lives for the sake of The Truth. Imagine when we see their smiles as they receive the reward they so much deserved. Imagine the perfect Feasts we will behold for a millennium to come. Yes, imagine when we say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of The Eternal!” Micah 4:2

Step 7 Salvation

The Harvest of the Firstfruits

 

This step is the culmination to many events. The very beginning of this step, the marked rise, is the fulfillment of the Feast of Trumpets. This event commemorates the return of the spiritual Prince for the spiritual Firstfruits of God. 1Thessalonians 4:15-17

 

These spiritual Firstfruits include the following: the prophets of the First Covenant, the prophets of the New, the apostles of God, and the rest of the Body that died in the name of The Savior. 2Timothy 2:11

 

The Firstfruits of God also come in a duality. The aforementioned are symbolic of the child recorded in the book of Revelation, and the rest are the individuals that will endure the tribulation for the sake of The Truthgiver and the Truth. Revelation 12:5, 7:13-14, 20:4-6, 20:6

 

Because our brothers will be heavily dependent on the Gospel that saves, what we do now will help them endure the terrible trials ahead. So what they do, will be heavily dependent on what we do and what they choose to do, will determine the difference between those who did not have enough time to return to God and those who chose to time the return of God. Matthew 24:43-51, Revelation 2:10-11, 12:17 We will also endure our own trials, some even to the point of death. James 1:3, 1Thessalonians 3:3, 1Peter 4:12-13 But one thing is certain, those who are sealed by the time of the terrible tribulation will not stay behind. Matthew 24:37-42, 1Corinthians 15:51-53, Revelation 3:10

 

The amalgamation of these spiritual Firstfruits will rule over the population that will be spared from the wrath poured on earth. Isaiah 2:4, Revelation 2:26-29 Having said this, have you ever wondered, why is this taking place? Why is the population that is transitioning into the millennium being spared? Why not go straight into the Judgment Day? In other words, what is the purpose of the thousand-year reign?

 

The millennium to come fulfills the Feast of Tabernacles long awaited by the physical children of Israel. Ezekiel 37:21-25, Zechariah 8:8 The hope to enter the Promised Land is what every good Hebrew sought to come to fruition. Psalms 79:6-13, 80:4-7, 89:49-52, 90:13-17 The thousand year reign will be the time of vindication for the physical children of Israel. Ezekiel 36:22-23 During this millennium, the surviving population, of mostly Gentile origin, will learn the way of God. Zechariah 14:16-19 But how are the physical children of Israel returning to the Promised Land?

 

The Hebrews that will be brought back to life, in the millennium to come, are symbolic of the good figs recorded in the book of Jeremiah. Jeremiah 24:2-7 These righteous Hebrews make-up the physical House of Israel that will be restored when the prophecy of the Dry Bones is fulfilled on Jubilee, on the Day of Atonement. Ezekiel 37:1-14 Mind you, only the good figs under the First Covenant will be restored to the physical Promised Land as we recall that not everyone who descends from Israel is of Israel. Jeremiah 24:8, Romans 9:6, 9:27, Hebrews 3:19, 4:1-3

 

Although this promise is long unfulfilled, it will only seem like a second from the death of each individual. When they are brought back to life, their hope will be realized when The Spirit who gave them life will also give them birth to Righteousness. Ezekiel 11:17-20, 37:14, Romans 11:26-27

 

So inasmuch as there is a duality within the spiritual Firstfruits, there is a duality within the physical and the spiritual Firstfruits; within the physical and the spiritual children of God. The fulfillment of these events can be explained once the seven Feasts of God are finally understood. Now the time has come to see how everything that God designs holds a purpose.

 

Brothers, have you ever wondered why the spiritual Firstfruits of God would need the Day of Atonement after the Feast of Trumpets fulfills for them more than the forgiveness of Sin? In other words, if the Firstfruits are to go from corruptible to incorruptible once the Feast of Trumpets is fulfilled, why is there a need for the Day of Atonement?

 

The reason the Feast of Trumpets comes before the Day of Atonement is because the latter comes in a duality. Leviticus 23:23-26 The first part of the Day of Atonement is fulfilled, for the spiritual Firstfruit, when each individual enters the Baptism of Repentance. The second part of the Day of Atonement is fulfilled, for the physical Firstfruits of God, when the restoration aforementioned comes to pass.

 

This is the reason the physical children of God commemorated the Passover as their freedom from slavery and their hope to return to the physical Promised Land. In much the same way, the spiritual Firstfruits of God commemorate the Passover as their exit from Sin and their hope to enter the spiritual Promised Land.

 

So just as the Feast of Trumpets fulfills the arrival of the spiritual Firstfruits to the spiritual Promised Land, the Day of Atonement fulfills the arrival of the physical Firstfruits to the physical Promised Land. The Lampstand of God helps us understand why these two Feasts come in this order.

 

Let us use our hands as a model, as we did before, to understand the fulfillment of these Feasts. Be patient since the seven Feasts extend beyond the seven steps of the golden model for a very important reason.

 

Consider the first four steps similar to the first two Feasts that fulfill the phase of Righteousness; these are the Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread that we are now quite familiar-with. Leviticus 23:4-8 Then, consider the fifth and sixth steps similar to the next two Feasts. Leviticus 23:9-22 The Feast of Firstfruits and the Feast of Weeks are very similar for a reason:

 

The Feast of Firstfruits represents the Hebrews of the First Covenant that died without the promise being fulfilled. These Hebrews obeyed God with all their hearts but unfortunately, died waiting for their promise. Hebrews 11:13-16 Obviously, our Father has not forgotten nor forsaken any of them. Deuteronomy 31:8 This promise will be fulfilled when God provides them with The Seed of Righteousness when they are born again on the Day of Jubilee, on the Day of Atonement. Leviticus 25:8-10, 53-55

 

The Feast of Weeks (Pentecost) represents the spiritual Firstfruits of Israel. Their Day of Atonement takes place during their Baptism of Repentance just as their Day of Jubilee takes place during the Baptism of The Spirit. Leviticus 23:16-17, Luke 15:10 The Feast of Weeks brings together the Jew and Gentile to form the spiritual children of God. John 10:16 Only the prophets of the Old Covenant are considered part of the promise of the New, for only they also have received The Seed as the deposit of what is to come. Ezekiel 11:19, 1Peter 1:10-12

 

So just as the Feast of Firstfruits is the physical promise for the physical children of God, the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost) is the spiritual promise for the spiritual Firstfruits of God. Although the Feast of Firstfruits (physical) arrived before the Feast of Weeks (spiritual), the children who sought holiness are due to arrive before the children who sought Righteousness. 1Corinthians 15:46-50, Hebrews 12:14

 

The Feast of Trumpets will therefore be the fulfillment of the promise given during the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost) just as the Day of Atonement will be the fulfillment of the promise given during the Feast of Firstfruits. This is why The Messiah resurrected in the flesh on the third day and why the children of the first Covenant will be resurrected in the flesh on the third Day, as promised. Hosea 6:1-2

 

The fulfillment of these promises will take place when the spiritual children of God enter the spiritual Promised Land on the Feast of Trumpets, and when the physical children of God enter the physical Promised Land on the Day of Atonement. After these two Feasts are fulfilled, all the Firstfruits will meet on the Feast of Tabernacles on and during the thousand-year reign. Ezekiel 34:23-31

 

Now the reason we used our hands to model the Feasts in this order is to remind us of the following: Just as the
