Glory to El Shaddai, Our Father
In His Son Yeshua HaMashiyach.
 
 

The BORN AGAIN Life,
or the FIRST RESURRECTION.

Yeshua Shalom.

In The Beginning, We come to FAITH... Then We BECOME (Jhn1:12) BORN AGAIN.

          For El Shaddai so Loved the world, that He gave His only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes (to have firm conviction: Strongs #4100) in Him should not perish, but have Everlasting Life (Jhn 3:16). Yeshua answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be Born Anew (Again, From Above, #509), he cannot ìSeeî the Kingdom of El Shaddai (Jhn 3:3). Yeshua answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of The Spirit (Jhn 6:63; Eph 6:17) he cannot enter into the Kingdom of El Shaddai. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is Born of the Spirit is Spirit . Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be Born Again. The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound thereof, but cannot tell from where it comes, and where it goes: so is every one that is Born of the Spirit (Jhn 3:5-8).

          He came to His own, but His own Received Him not. But as many as received (to ìlay hold ofî (Phil 3:12), to catch, to espouse (Rev 19:7,8) #2893) Him, to them gave He Authority (the right, the power, #1849) to Become (a happening process) the sons (and daughters) of Adonay, even to them who believe on His Name: Who were born, not of blood, not of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of El Shaddai (Jhn 1:12,13). Being Born Again, not of corruptible (perishable, by implication: worldly #5349) seed, but of incorruptible, by The Word of El Shaddai, Who Lives and Abides Forever. For all flesh (the body) is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower thereof fall away: But The Word of the Lord endures Forever. And This is The Word which by the Gospel is preached unto you (1Pet 1:23-25).

         Having therefore, brethren, ìLATTER GROWTHî  (boldnessì?î #3954) to enter into the Holiest By the Blood of Yeshua, By a New and Living Way, which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; And having an High Priest over the House of El Shaddai; Let us draw near with a true Heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with Pure Water (Jer.2:13; 17:13; Jhn.15:3; Eph.5:26,27).
  Let us hold fast the profession of our Faith without wavering; (for He is Faithful Who Promised); And let us consider (to observe fully #2657) one another to provoke (encourage #3948) unto Love and to Good Works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but Exhorting (to implore #3874) one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching (Heb 10:19-25). And to Do Good and to Communicate (to be in Communion: Rom.12:4,5; 1Cor.12:25; Eph.4:25; #2842) forget not: for with such Sacrifices El Shaddai is well Pleased (Heb,13:16).

          For the Love of Christ constrains (limits) us; because we thus judge, that if One died for All, then we are All Dead: And that He died for All, that they who live should ìno longer live forî themselves, but For Him who died for them, and Rose Again (2Cor.5:14,15).  Forasmuch as you know that you were not Redeemed (bought back #3084) with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain (shallow #3152) Life-styles (conversation #391) received by tradition from your fathers (of men: Col.2:8,22; Matt.15:8,9; Matt.16:12); but By The Precious Blood of Christ, as of a Lamb (Jhn.1:29) without blemish and without spot (1Pet.1:18,19).  How much more shall the Blood of Christ, who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to Adonay, purge (purify #2511) your conscience from dead (fleshly, worldly: 1Jhn.2:15-17; Rom.8:5-8; Eph.2:2,3) works to serve the Living (Matt.22:32; Luke20:38) El Shaddai? (Heb.9:14; Re.: Hag.1:1-9). Awake to Righteousness, and Sin Not; for some have not the Knowledge of Adonay: I speak this to your shame (1Cor.15:34). Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man Love the world, the Love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life (Gen.3:6), is Not Of The Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that Does (Jmes.1:22) the Will (Eph.5:17) of Adonay abides Forever (1Jhn2:15-17).

          For no one can lay any foundation other than the one that has been laid; that foundation is Yeshua The Christ. Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones (Works of The Kingdom, and ìgood worksî), wood, hay, straw (works of the world [dead: selfish, ends in pine box]); the work of each builder will become visible, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the Fire Will (this is not an option: Rev.19:10) Test what sort of work each has done. If what has been built on the foundation survives, the builder will receive a reward. If the work is burned up (those which are of the world) , the builder will suffer loss (which can include the loss of all earthly possession: Phil.3:8,10); the builder will be saved, but only as through fire (1Cor.3:11-15, NRSV).

          So do not worry, saying, ëWhat shall we eat?í Or ëWhat shall we drink?í Or ëWhat shall we wear?í  For the pagans (NIV) run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But Seek First The Kingdom of El Shaddai (Matt.6:24), and His Righteousness (Matt.5:17-20; 15:8,9; Is.64:6), and all these things will be added to you as well (this is not to negate work: 1Thes.4:11; but  to prioritize of the Kingdom in our agenda). Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof (Matt.6:31-34; Re: Phil.2:12; Jhn.15:3; Lke.17:21). Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion (pillage #724) and excess. Thou blind Pharisee, Cleanse (Jhn.15:3) first that which is within the cup and platter (Matt.6:19-21; 12:33-37; Lke.6:45,46; 12:28-34; Jhn.15:3), that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead menís bones, and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous (Is.64:6) unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity (Matt.23:25-28).

         Therefore if any ìOneî be In Christ (one step above, having Faith: he is a New Creature: ìAllî old things are passed away (dead and buried: Rom.6:1-7: Col.2:12); behold, All things are Become (a happening process) New (2Cor.5:17). I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the Mercies of El Shaddai, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, Holy, acceptable unto Adonay, which is your reasonable service. And Be Not Conformed to this world: but be ye Transformed by the Renewing of your Mind, that ye may Demonstrate (Prove #1381: Rom.8:3,4; Rom.3:31) what is the Good, and Acceptable, and Perfect, will of El Shaddai (Rom.12:1,2).  This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth Walk Not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated (Eph.2:12) from the Life of Adonay through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness (lewdness, debauchedness, depravedness), to work all uncleanness with greediness. But you have Not so Learned ìInî Christ; If so be that you have heard Him, and have been Taught by Him, as The Truth is In Yeshua (Jhn:17:17).

          That ye put away (off) concerning the former Life-style (conversation #391) the old man, which is Defiled (corrupt # 5351) according to the deceitful lusts (desires #1939); And be Renewed (2Tim.2:15,16; 3:16,17) in the Spirit of your Mind; And that ye Put On (be clothed in: Matt.22:11-13) the New Man, who ìIn The Image ofî (after) El Shaddai is Created in Righteousness (Gal.5:5; Rom.8:3,4) and True Holiness. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man Truth with his neighbor: for We Are Members of One Another (Spiritually Connected in Christ). Be ye angry (at Sin), and SIN NOT: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil (Eph.4:17-27).

         ìForî after that the Kindness and Love of Yehoshua our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by Works of Righteousness which we have done (Deut.7:7,8; 9:5,6; Ezk.36:22,23,32; 38:23; 39:7,25), but according to His Mercy He Saved Us, by the Washing (Jhn.15:3) of Regeneration, and Renewing of the Holy Spirit; Which He shed on us abundantly through Yeshua HaMashiach our Saviour; That being Justified (pronounced guiltless: Freely: Rom.3:24) by His Grace, we should be made Heirs according to the Hope of Eternal Life. This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in El Shaddai might be Careful to maintain Good Works. These things are Good and Profitable (not for ìfilthy Lucreî) unto men. But avoid foolish (2Tim.2:23) questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain (Tit.3:4-9).

         Study to show thyself approved (and to confirm your approval: 2Pet.1:10,11) unto Adonay, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, Rightly Dividing (properly understanding, correctly expounding on #3718) The Word of Truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness (2Tim.2:15,16).  All Scripture is given by inspiration of El Shaddai, and is profitable for Doctrine (Matt.15:8,9), for Reproof, for Correction, for Instruction in ìHisî Righteousness (Is.64:6): That the man of El Shaddai may be Perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all Good Works (2Tim.3:16,17). For we are His (The Word [Jhn.1:1-3,14] working in us: Rom.1:16) workmanship, created In Christ Yeshua unto Good Works, which El Shaddai has before ordained that we should Walk in them (Eph.2:10).

          For the Grace of El Shaddai that Brings Salvation (Jhn.1:29) has appeared to all men, Teaching us that, Rejecting (Denying #720) ungodliness and worldly lusts (desires #1939), we should live Soberly (level headed #4993), Righteously, and Godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great El Shaddai and our Saviour Yeshua HaMashiach; Who gave Himself for us, that he might Redeem us from ( to buy us out of) all iniquity, and Purify (Eph.5:26,27) unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of Good Works (Tit.2:11-14).

          I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for ìHeî (John 1:14) Is The Power of El Shaddai unto Salvation to every one that believes (to have firm conviction #4100); to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (Rom.1:16). What shall we say then? Shall we continue in Sin, that Grace may abound (Rom.3:3-8)? Adonay forbid. How shall we, who are dead to sin (Rom.6:14-23; Jude v.3-5), live any longer therein?  Know ye not, that as many of us as were Baptized into Yeshua The Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore We Are Buried with Him by Baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead By The Glory of the Father, even so We also should Walk in Newness of Life (Ps.5:10-12; Lam.5:21; Tit.3:4,5; Col.1:9-11; Phil.1:9-11; Matt.5:20; Eph.4:1-3, 30-32; Col.3:5-10).

         For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, We Shall Be also in the Likeness of His Resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man Is Crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be ìPut Awayî (destroyed, abolished #2673), that henceforth We Should Not Serve Sin. For he that is dead Is Freed From Sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death has no more dominion over Him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he lives, he lives unto Adonay. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but Alive unto El Shaddai through Yeshua HaMashiach our Lord. Therefore Let Not Sin reign (rule) in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but Yield yourselves unto Adonay (as the Spirit leads, and empowers), as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of Righteousness unto El Shaddai (Rom.6:1-13, Re.: 1Pet.2:1-3; 1Jhn.2:1,2).

         Mortify (put to sleep) therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication (extra marital sex:: Webster), uncleanness, inordinate affection (unnatural desires), evil concupiscence (desires? #1939), and covetousness, which Is idolatry: For which thingsí sake the Wrath of El Shaddai comes on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the New Man, who is Renewed in Knowledge after the Image of Him that ìCreated usî (Col.3:5-10).  If ye then be Risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of El Shaddai. Set your affection (Heart, intent #5426) on things above (The Word: Jhn.1:1-3), not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in El Shaddai (Col.3:1-3).

         For though we ìhave physical bodiesî (walk in the flesh), we do ìnot covet earthly thingsî (not war after the flesh): For the ìInstrumentsî (weapons #3696) of our ìMinistryî (Apostolic career, Ministry, warfare #4752) are not carnal, but mighty through El Shaddai (Eph.6:10-18; Zech.4:6) to the pulling down of strong holds; Casting  Down Imaginations, and every (so called) high place (thing) that exalts itself against the Knowledge of El Shaddai, and bringing Every Thought ìinto Subjectionî (Captive) to the Obedience (Heb.5:8,9) of Christ (beginning with our own; 2Cor.10:3-5).  For the flesh ìWarsî (lusts) Against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these ì2î are Contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But If ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law (Gal.5:17,18).

         For they that ìwalkî after the flesh (the world: Jms.4:4) do mind the things of the flesh (self gratification, ìearthly, sensual, devilish: î Jms.3:13-15); but they that ìWalkî after The Spirit the things of The Spirit (The Word: Jhn.6:63; Eph.6:17; Ps.138:2). For to be carnally minded is death; but to be Spiritually Minded is Life and Peace. Because the carnal mind is Enmity Against El Shaddai: for It is Not Subject to The Law of Adonay, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot Please El Shaddai (Rom.8:5-8). Wherein in time past ye walked according to the ìwaysî (course) of this world, according to the Prince of the Power of The Air (Rev.12:10-12), the spirit that now works in the children of Disobedience: Among whom also we all had our life-styles (conversation #391) in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath (Jms.1:20), even as others (Eph.2:2,3; Re: Gal.6:5-8). ìSoî let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. For every one shall bear his own burden. Let him that is taught in the Word communicate unto him that teaches in all good things. Be not deceived; Adonay is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap  For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that sows to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap Life Everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not (Gal.6:4-9).

          Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may (to be of power #1410) be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with El Shaddai. For it is written, He catches (takes) the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours (1Cor.3:18-20; Re.: Is.5:21; Job:5:13; 1Cor.8:23; Gal.6:3).  For the Preaching of the Cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are Saved He is the Power of El Shaddai. For it is written, I will destroy (undo) the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Has not Adonay made foolish the wisdom of this world? (1Cor.1:19-20; Re.: Is.30:1-5, 12-14; Is.19:11; Is29:14; Matt.13:22; Rom.1:20; Jhn.12:30-32; 1Cor.1:27).  That your Faith should Not Stand in the wisdom of men, but in the Power of El Shaddai (the Life Changing Power of The Word: Rom.1:16). Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are Mature (perfect #739): yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nothing: But we speak the Wisdom of El Shaddai in a ìHidden Truthî (mystery #3466), even the hidden Wisdom, which Adonay ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory (1Cor.2:5-8). But if our Gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world (Eph.2:2,3; Rev12:10-12) has blinded the minds of them who do not believe, lest the Light of the Glorious Gospel of Christ, who is the Image of El Shaddai, should shine unto them. For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Yeshua the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Yeshua sake. For Adonay, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the Light of the Knowledge of the Glory of El Shaddai in the face of Yeshua The Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the Excellency of the Power may be of El Shaddai, and Not of us (2Cor.4:3-7).

         ìForî El Shaddai, who is Rich in Mercy, for His Great Love wherewith he Loved us, even when we were Dead in Sins, has quickened (made us Alive) us together with Christ, (by Grace ye are saved); and has (done deal) raised us up together, and ìhasî made us sit together in heavenly places (Positional Sanctification) in Christ Yeshua: That in the ages to come he might show the Exceeding Riches of His Grace in His Kindness toward us through Christ Yeshua (Eph.2:4-7). Hold fast the form of sound Words (Doctrine: Matt.15:8,9; 1Tim.4:1-3; 2Tim.4:3,4), which thou has heard of me, in Faith and Love which is in Christ Yeshua (2Tim.1:13). That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Spirit Who dwells in us (2Tim.1:13,14). For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might (to be of Power #1410) be Filled with the Knowledge of His Will (Eph.5:17) in all Wisdom and Spiritual Understanding (Eph.1:13; 1Cor.2:14) That ye might Walk Worthy of the Lord (Eph.4:1-3) unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every Good Work (1Cor.15:58) and increasing in the Knowledge of El Shaddai (2Pet.3:18) Strengthened with all might (Eph.6:10), according to His Glorious Power, unto all Patience (2Pet.1:5-11) and Longsuffering with Joyfulness; Giving Thanks unto the Father, Who (He) has made us Fit (meet) to be partakers of the inheritance of the Saints in light: Who has delivered us ìoutî from the power of darkness (the world), and has translated us into the Kingdom of His dear Son: In whom we have redemption Through His Blood (Rev.5-9,10) even the Forgiveness (Not Spelled Rationalization) of sins: Who is the Image (Gen.1:26,27) of the Invisible El Shaddai, the Firstborn (First Raised) of every creature (Col.1:9-15).

         See then that ye Walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as Wise, Redeeming  the time (not Spelled killing it in apathetic dejection ìfunlandî), because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but Understanding (Prov.3:5-9; 4:4-9) what the Will of the Lord is (Eph.5:15-17). By the Word of Truth (Jhn.17:17; 14:6) by the Power of El Shaddai (Zech.4:6), by the armor of Righteousness (Eph.6:10-18) on the right hand and on the left (2Cor.6:7). In whom ye also Trusted, after that ye heard (Understood #191) the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your Salvation: in whom also after that ye believed (Acts 5:32), ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of Promise (1Pet1:2-5), Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the Redemption of the Purchased Possession (us), unto the Praise of His Glory (Eph.1:13,14; Phil.1:9-11; Eph.1:12).

         For this cause also Thank we El Shaddai without ceasing, because, when you received The Word of El Shaddai which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as He is in truth, The Word of El Shaddai, who (Jhn.1:14) effectually works also in you that believe (1Thes.2:13).  Wherein He has abounded toward us in all Wisdom and Prudence; Having made known unto us the Mystery of His Will, according to His Good Pleasure which He has purposed in Himself: That in the Dispensation of the Fullness of Times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in Him: In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who works all things after the counsel of His Own Will: That we should be to the Praise of His Glory, who first Trusted in Christ (Eph.1:8-12).  For the Word of El Shaddai is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the Heart (Heb.4:12).  Therefore be watchful (1Pet.5:8,9), Stand fast in the Faith (Eph.6:13,14), ìbehave like menî (NASB), be strong, and let all that you Do be done In LOVE (1Cor.16:13.14; 1Cor.13).

          Be therefore Followers of El Shaddai, as dear children;  And Walk In LOVE, as Christ also has Loved us, and has given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to El Shaddai for a sweet smelling savour. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it Not Once be named among you, as becomes Saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather Giving of Thanks. For this you know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of El Shaddai. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of El Shaddai upon the children of disobedience. Be not you therefore partakers with them (Eph.5:1-7).  For This is the Will of El Shaddai, even your Sanctification, that you should abstain from fornication: That every one of you should know how to Possess his vessel in Sanctification and Honor;  Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not El Shaddai: That no man go beyond and defraud His brother in any matter: because that YHWH is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified (1Thes4:3-5). Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of Edifying, that you may minister Grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the Holy Spirit of El Shaddai, whereby you are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be you kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as El Shaddai for Christís sake has Forgiven you (Eph.4:29-32). ìForî The Commandments, ìYou shall not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not covetî; and any other Commandment (1Jhn.5:1-5) are summed up in this word, ìLove your neighbor as yourselfî (Lev.19:18); LOVE does No Wrong to a neighbor; therefore, LOVE is the fulfilling (Manifestation: #4137) of The Law (Rom.13:9,10; NRSV).

         Let the Word of Christ dwell in you Richly in all Wisdom; Teaching and Admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with Grace in your Hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever you Do in Word or Deed, do all IN (not sidestepping) The Name (to the Glory: Ex.20:7)) of the Lord Yeshua, Giving Thanks to El Shaddai and the Father by Him (Col.3:16,17).  Whom we preach, Warning every one, and Teaching every man in all Wisdom; that we may Present every ìOneî Perfect in Christ Yeshua (Col.1:28): ìFor Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of El Shaddai (Rom.10:17).  For in many things we offend all. If any man offend (stumble) Not In Word, the same is a Perfect man, and (eventually: Matt.23:25,26)  able also to bridle (bring under control) the whole body (Jms.3:2; Ps.34:13,14; 39:1;103:5; 119:9; 141;3).

         What manner of LOVE the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of El Shaddai: therefore the world knoweth us Not, because it knew Him Not. Beloved, now are we the sons of Adonay, and what we shall be is not yet apparent: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He Is.  And every man that has this Hope in him Purifieth himself, even as He Is Pure. Whosoever committeth Sin Transgresseth also the Law: for Sin Is the Transgression of The Law. And ye know that He was manifested to Take away our Sins; and in Him is No Sin. Whosoever Abideth in Him Sinneth Not: whosoever sinneth hath Not seen Him, neither Known Him. Little children, let No One deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as He Is Righteous. He that committeth Sin is of the Devil; for the Devil Sinneth from the Beginning (Jhn.8:44).

         For this purpose the Son of El Shaddai was manifested, that He might Destroy (Undo) the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of El Shaddai does Not Commit Sin; for His Seed (The Word: 1Pet.1:23) remains in Him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of El Shaddai (1Jhn.3:1-9; 1Jhn.1:7-9). Being BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of Incorruptible, by the Word of El Shaddai, who Lives and Abides for ever (1Pet.1:23). For with the Heart man believes unto Righteousness (Gal.5:5; Rom.8:3,4); and with the Mouth confession is made unto Salvation (Rom.10:10). Even so the tongue is a little member, ìbut itî boasts great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindles! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

          For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we El Shaddai, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the similitude (in ìthe Image and Likenessî: Gen.1:26,27) of El Shaddai. Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not be so. Does a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? Either a vine, figs? So can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh (Jms.3:5-12).  Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the Heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the Heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment (1Pet.4:17).  For by your Words you shalt be Justified, and by your Words you shalt be Condemned (Matt.12:33-37).

          Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be Sober (level headed #4993), and hope to the end for the Grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Yeshua Christ; As Obedient children (Acts 5:32; Rom.6:17; 1Pet.1:22), not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as He who has Called you is Holy, so be you Holy in all manner of conversation (Life-style included);  Because it is written, Be you Holy; for I AM Holy.  And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons, judges according to every manís work, pass the time of your sojourning (1Pet.2:11) here in Fear (1Pet.1:13-17; Re.: Phil.2:12); For How shall we escape, if we neglect so great Salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard Him (Heb.2:3). Elect according to the foreknowledge of El Shaddai the Father, through Sanctification (purification, consecration #3788) of The Spirit, unto Obedience  (Acts 5:32; Heb.5:8,9) and sprinkling of the Blood of Yeshua The Christ: Grace unto you, and Peace, be multiplied. Blessed be the Adonay and Father of our Lord Yeshua HaMashiach, who according to His Abundant Mercy has begotten us again unto a Living (Heb.10:19-22) Hope (assurance#1680) by the Resurrection of Yeshua The Christ (The Proof of ìThe Wayî: Jhn.14:6) from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fades not away, Reserved in Heaven for you, Who are Kept by the power of El Shaddai through Faith unto Salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, you are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the Trial of your Faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto Praise and Honor and Glory at the appearing of Yeshua Christ: Whom having not seen, you Love; in whom, though now you see Him not, yet believing, you rejoice with Joy unspeakable and full of Glory: Receiving the end of your Faith, even the Salvation of your souls (1Pet.1:2-9). Seeing you have Purified your souls in Obeying the Truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned Love of the brethren, see that you Love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being Born Again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of El Shaddai, who Lives and Abides for ever (1Pet.1:22,23).

         Whosoever denies (refuse, rejects #720) the Son, the same has not the Father: [but] He that acknowledges the Son has the Father also. Let that therefore abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning. IF that which you have heard from the beginning shall remain in you (1Jhn.3:9), you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. And this is the Promise that He has Promised us, even Eternal Life. These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. But the Anointing (The Holy Spirit) whom you have received of Him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you: but as the same Anointing Teaches you of all things, and is Truth, and is no lie, and even as He has taught you, you shall abide in Him (1Jnh.2:23-27; Re.: Jhn.17:16-23).

          Put on therefore, as the Elect of El Shaddai, Holy and beloved, bowels (inward Affections #4698) of Mercies, Kindness, Humbleness of mind, Meekness, Longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another (2Pet.1:5-11), if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye (Mtt.6:14,15; Mrk.11:25,26; Lke.6:37). And above all these things put on Love, which is the bond of Perfectness. And let the Peace of El Shaddai Rule in your Hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye Thankful (Col.3:12-15).

         By Him therefore let us offer the Sacrifice of Praise to El Shaddai continually, that is, the fruit of our Lips Giving Thanks to His Name. And to do good and to communicate (to be in Communion, in partnership, a benefactor #2842) forget not: for with such Sacrifices El Shaddai is well Pleased (Heb.13:15,16). Demonstrating (Proving#1381) what is acceptable (Rom.12:2,3) unto YHWH. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather Reprove (Expose #1651) them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret (Eph.5:10-12).

         Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief (inclusive of disobedience #543, 570?), in departing from the Living El Shaddai. But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of Sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, IF we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end; While it is said, Today if ye will hear His voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation (Heb.3:12-15). Cast not away therefore your Confidence, which has great Recompense of Reward.

         For ye have need of Patience, that, after ye have done the will of El Shaddai, ye might receive the Promise. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by Faith: but if any man draw back, My soul shall have no pleasure in him (Heb.10:35-38). For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the Inward Man is Renewed (Eph.4:20-24) day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceeding and Eternal weight of Glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are Eternal (2Cor.4:16-18). If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above (The Word: Jhn.1:14) where Christ sits on the right hand of El Shaddai. Set your affection on things Above, Not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is Hid with Christ in El Shaddai (Col.3:1-3).

         Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to Hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man works Not the Righteousness of El Shaddai (Rom.10:1-4). Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and Receive with Meekness the engrafted (inspired) Word, which is able to Save (2Thes.2:12) your Souls. But be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only (remembering the ìSpirit of Prophecyî: Rev.19:10), deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the Word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding His natural face in a glass: For he beholds himself, and goes His way, and straightway forgets what manner of man he was. But whoso looks into the Perfect Law of Liberty, and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in His deed (Jms.1:19-25).  For He gives more Grace. Wherefore He says, El Shaddai resists the proud, but gives Grace unto the Humble. Submit yourselves therefore to El Shaddai (The Word: Jhn1:1-3,14; Ps.138:2) Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to El Shaddai, and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded (Jms.4:4). Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the Sight of YHWH, and He shall lift you up. Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaks evil of His brother, and Judges His brother, speaks evil of the Law, and Judges the Law: but if you judge the law, you art not a doer of the law, but a judge. There is one lawgiver, Who is able to save and to destroy: who are you that judges another? (Jms.4:6-12).  For I say, through the Grace Given unto me, to every man (woman) that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think (Matt.23:12); but to think Soberly (level-headed; of Right-Use-Ness of mind; Disciplined, able to reason (not rationalize), #4993)), according as El Shaddai has dealt to every man a Measure of Faith. For as we have many members in One body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are One body in Christ, and Every One Members of one another (Rom.12:3-5). Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits (Rom.12:16).  For unto every one of us is Given Grace according to the Measure of the Gift of Christ (Eph.4:7).

          Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? Nay: but by the LAW (Not "Anything Goes") OF FAITH. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by Faith without the deeds of the Law. Is he the El Shaddai of the Jews only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one El Shaddai, who shall Justify (to Pronounce guiltless) the circumcision by Faith, and uncircumcision through Faith. Do we then make void the Law through Faith? Adonay forbid: yea, we Establish the Law ìThrough (Gal.5:5; Rom.8:3,4) Faithî (Rom.3:27-31). Why then the law? It was added because of Transgressions, until the Seed would come to whom the promise had been made; and it was ordained through angels by a mediator. Now a mediator involves more than one party; but El Shaddai is one. Is The Law then opposed to the Promises of El Shaddai? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could make alive, then Righteousness would indeed come through The Law. But the Scripture has concluded (imprisoned, NRSV) all under the power of sin, so that The promise through Faith in Yeshua The Christ might be Given to those who Believe.  Now before Faith came, we were imprisoned and guarded under The Law until Faith would be revealed.

         Therefore The Law was our ìSchoolmasterî to bring us to Christ (this being unfortunately overlooked, accounting for a lot of lawlessness in the ranks of the believers), so that we might (to be of power #1410) be Justified by Faith. But after the Faith (conviction, Fidelity, Faithfulness #4102) has come, we are no longer subject to a disciplinarian, for  you are all children of El Shaddai by Faith in Christ Yeshua. As many of you as were Baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with (Put On) Christ (the wedding garb: Matt.22:11). There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female (matter of Spiritual Standing, not a denial of gender!); for All of you are One in Christ Yeshua. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abrahamís Seed, and heirs according to the Promise. This I say then: heirs, as long as they are minors (yet carnal: 1Cor.3:1-3; Rom.8:5-8), are no better than slaves, though they are the ìbenevolent Authorityî (lord #2962: Lexical Aid) of all; but they remain under guardians and trustees until the date set by the Father. So with us; while we were minors, we were enslaved to the elements of the world (circumstances). But when the fullness of time had come, El Shaddai sent His Son, born of a woman, born under The Law, in order to redeem those who were under The Law , so that we (All) might Receive adoption as children (Rom.8:13-17). And because you are children, El Shaddai has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, ìAbba! Father!î Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an Heir (Rom.8:17) of El Shaddai through Christ (Gal.3:19 - Gal.4:7; NRSV).

         For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lordís freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christís servant. Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men (1Cor.7:22,23). For what The Law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, El Shaddai sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and ìon account ofî sin, Condemned sin in the flesh: That the Righteousness (Righteous Requirements) of The Law might (to be of Power #1410) be Manifest (made alive, fulfilled #4137) in us, who Walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit (Rom.8:3,4).  For The Law made nothing Perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh (by The Power of The Word [Rom.1:16] working in us) unto El Shaddai (Heb.7:19).  For by one offering he has Perfected for ever them that are Sanctified (Heb.10:14).  For it became Him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Captain of their Salvation (Heb.5:8,9) Perfect through sufferings (1Pet.4:1,2). For both He that Sanctifies and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren (Heb.2:10,11), But this man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of El Shaddai;  From henceforth expecting till His enemies be made His footstool (Heb.10:12,13).

         Now the Adonay of Peace, Who brought again from the dead our Lord Yeshua, 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 (Rom.1:16) that which is wellpleasing in His sight, through Yeshua Christ; to whom be Glory for ever and ever. Amen (Heb.13:20,21). For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Yeshua unto Good Works, which El Shaddai has before ordained that we should Walk in (Eph.2:10).

          Having therefore these Promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, Perfecting Holiness in the Reverence (fear) of El Shaddai (2Cor.7:1).  ìForî ye are come unto Mount Zion, and unto the city of the living El Shaddai, the Heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and ìCongregationî of the First Born, who are written in heaven, and to El Shaddai the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made Perfect, And to Yeshua the Mediator of the New Covenant, and to the Blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things than that of Abel (Heb.12:22-24).

         Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles (Unbelievers #1672) in the flesh (condition of unbelieving life), who are called Uncircumcision (of the Heart: Col.2:11,12) by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands (making note of ìthe Spiritî of the matter); That at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the Commonwealth of Yisrael, and strangers from the Covenants of Promise, having no hope, and without El Shaddai in the world: But now in Christ Yeshua you who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the Blood of Christ. For He is our Peace, who has made both one (Jhn.17:23), and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Having abolished in His flesh the enmity, even The Law of commandments (Jude v.4) contained in ordinances; for to make in Himself of twain one New Man (dead flesh (Rom.6:5-7), Spirit Man), so making Peace; And that He might reconcile (2Cor.5:19,20) both unto El Shaddai in one body By The Cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached Peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. For through him we both have access by One Spirit (Heb.4:12; 10:19-22; The Word: Jhn.6:63; Eph.6:17) unto the Father. Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the Saints (1Cor.1:2), and of the household of El Shaddai; And are built upon the Foundation (No Other Foundation: 1Cor3:9-15) of the Apostles and Prophets, Yeshua The Christ Himself (The Word: Jhn.21:14) Being the Chief Cornerstone; In whom all the building fitly framed together (1Cor.12:4-14, 27-31; Rom.12:3,4; Eph.4:11-16) grows unto an Holy Temple (1Cor3:16-18; 1Cor.6:19,20) To the Lord: In whom you also are built together for an ìSpiritualî habitation To El Shaddai (ìInî and) through the Spirit (Eph.2:12-22; therefore: Rom.12:6; 1Cor1:10; 1Cor.12:25; 2Cor.4:13; Phil.2:2; 3:16; Heb.5:11,12; 1Pet.4:10). For El Shaddai, who is rich in Mercy, for His great Love wherewith He Loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened (made alive) us together with Christ, (by Grace you are saved); And has (Done Deal) raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Yeshua: That in the ages to come He might show the Exceeding Riches of His Grace in His Kindness toward us through Christ Yeshua (Eph.2:4-6). Wherefore we receiving a Kingdom (Not a Republic, nor a Democracy and other Communisms, Not an Empire, Not a Dictatorship, nor a Tyranny) which cannot be moved, let us have Grace (Heb.4:16), whereby we may Serve Adonay acceptably with Reverence and Godly Fear: For our Adonay is a consuming Fire (Heb.12:28,29).

         I therefore, the servant of the Lord, beseech you that you Walk worthy of the Vocation wherewith you are Called, With all Lowliness and Meekness, with Longsuffering, forbearing one another in Love; Endeavouring to keep the Unity of the Spirit in the Bond of Peace. There is One body, and One Spirit, even as you are called in One hope of your calling; One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism, One El Shaddai and Father of All, Who is Above all, and through all, and In you all (Eph.4:1-6). I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the Mercies of El Shaddai, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto El Shaddai, which is your reasonable service. And Be Not Conformed to that world: but be you Transformed by the Renewing of your mind, that you may Demonstrate (prove #1381) what is that Good, and acceptable, and Perfect, will of El Shaddai (Rom.12:1,2).

         Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers (Disobedient, unfaithful #543,570,571): for what Fellowship hath Righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath Light (Matt.5:14) with darkness? And what concord does Christ have with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of Adonay with idols? For You Are the Temple of the Living El Shaddai; as El Shaddai hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their Adonay, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye Separate, saith YHWH, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty (2Cor.6:14-18).

         The Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a certain King, who made a marriage for His son,  And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding (The Church? Rev.19:7,8) and they would not come. Again, He sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them who are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the Marriage. But they made light of it, and went their ìownî ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: And the remnant took his servants (The Prophets), and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. But when the King heard thereof, He was wroth: and He sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city (Rev.18?). Then saith He to his servants, The Wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the Marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. And when the King came in to see the guests, He saw there a man who had not on a wedding garment (had not Put On Christ?): And he saith unto him, Friend, how did you come in here not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the King to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen (Matt.22:2-14). And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and Judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were Beheaded for the Witness of Yeshua, and for The Word of El Shaddai, and which had Not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and They Lived and Reigned with Christ a Thousand Years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This Is The First Resurrection. Blessed and Holy is he that hath part in the First Resurrection: on such the Second Death hath No Power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall Reign with Him a Thousand Years (Rev.20:4-6; Re.:Rev.5:10).

          Let us be glad and rejoice, and give Honor to Him: for the Marriage of the Lamb is come, and His Bride hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the Righteousness (the Righteous acts: NIV) of the Saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they who are called unto the Marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the True sayings of Adonay. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the Testimony of Yeshua: Worship El Shaddai: for the Testimony (Word: another Study) of Yeshua is the Spirit of Prophecy (Rev19:7-10).

          Whosoever believes that Yeshua is The CHRIST (The Messiah) is born of El Shaddai: and every one that Loves him that begot Loves Him also that is begotten of Him. By this we know that we Love the children of El Shaddai, when we Love El Shaddai, and keep His Commandments. For this is the Love of El Shaddai, that we keep His Commandments: and His Commandments are not grievous (Ps.19:7-11; Ps.110:10; Jhn.14:15; 1Jhn.2:3-5; 1Jhn.3:14,15; 2Jhn.v6). For whosoever is Born of El Shaddai overcomes (to rise above) the world: and This is the Victory that overcomes the world, even our Faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he that believes that Yeshua is The Son of El Shaddai? (1Jhn.5:1-5).

         O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of THE LORD of hosts, the Adown of Yisrael, have I Declared unto You (Is.21:8-10). I CHARGE you by the Lord ìYESHUAî that this Epistle be READ unto All the HOLY BRETHREN. The GRACE of our Lord Yeshua The Christ be With you. Amen (1Ths.5:27,28).
