Mashiyach and the Prophets revealed many signs telling of the return of Mashiyach. We learn that most of the population of the earth will not be expecting the "Day of YHWH", most are in unbelief, and entirely ignorant of the prophetic times of YHWH. Those who are watching unto prayer are seeing many signs unfold on the Moedim and throughout the year that tells the story. For example in the year 2005 the Feast of Shavuot (Feast of Weeks or Pentecost) occurred on May 15th, 2005, according to the Biblical calendar. On the day of this Feast there were massive eruptions on the Sun that have never occurred before in the history of mankind. Some think it is a coincidence, because they are not aware of the ancient prophecies that relate to the coming of Mashiyach Ben David. YHWH will hold back this "Day" only until transgression on earth reaches it's fullness, then His Power will be unleashed, and He will wage war against His enemies. Many people will realize that the leaders of the nations have been plotting "a vain thing", multitudes and multitudes will be in the valley of decision, many will have voluntarily left "Babylon". Religious institutions, churches, synagogues and mosques, will have experienced massive destruction, people will see their religions have betrayed them, they have followed vanity not truth. Many souls will have perished from fear alone due to horrific loss of life one earth and the global war will rage with no end it sight and no hope of reconciliation. When the catastrophe on earth reaches it's darkest hour, Y'shua Mashiyach Ben David will appear. Mashiyach will assume His status as the Judge of the Universe, He will not be challenged by mankind. Mashiyach Ben David will introduce spiritual or "metaphysical" energy never before witnessed on earth with overwhelming magnitude and power, this is symbolized in Scripture by a Great White Horse and by myriads of angels coming with Him. The Great White Horse symbolizes righteousness and power, angels symbolize dominance over the spiritual worlds, those who would still attempt to fight will be devastated, the games of men will be exposed, judged and extricated from humanity. Each soul remaining alive will see the reality of the spiritual worlds on levels not before revealed. Torah will be revealed with "spiritual eyes" as His covenant of righteousness, the judgments of YHWH will obliterate all form of rebellion and unrighteousness. Even at this time, as seen in the parable of the wedding feast, opportunity will be given for those to turn from their wickedness. Mashiyach will have one mandate which will be to sanctify (set apart) the wheat from the tares, everything will be tried and tested, the wheat will be preserved and the chaff will be fertilizer. For those within the Kingdom of Mashiyach the timing of this event is not of extreme significance, we live our lives according to the Mashiyach and put our trust in Him, we redeem the time we have, His return is closer than when we first believed. All the Righteous Prophets have spoken of the Day of YHWH, and the events leading up to it. Mashiyach is not interested in destroying any part of His creation, but He will expose the high-handed rebellion that has come against all righteousness.
For those outside the Kingdom of Elohim the timing of this event is rather crucial, for these time will be no more and they will proceed to give account of what they've done with the life they've been given. There are religious people who desire to "hasten the day" of YHWH, because they are taught that they have the Kingdom "in the bag". But the prophets say,
The prophets say that if anything will be done swiftly, it will be to establish a witness against those who deny the Mashiyach and His Torah.
Mashiyach instructed His Talmidim (disciples) that His return would be very sudden and there would be much high-handed rebellion as it was in the days of Noah, also, plan to be surprised.
The Mashiyach is very concerned that our souls are prepared for this "Day", more so than revealing the precise day of His return, "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Mashiyach." Judgment whether we live through this or die before this "Day" is the next step along the way, we should be confident that we've been served the mandate of the Mashiyach and Torah and that we've not followed the crowd to destruction. Let's take a moment and do an inventory check on our souls, a "truth" checkup if you will.
When will these things really take place? It's no secret. "And when you shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh." Luke 21:20
There are 688 prophecies regarding "the day of YHWH" go read them and study, you wouldn't want to take anybody's word for this most epic of events.
"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Mashiyach; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad." The issues of judgment will not be based on how "bulletproof" our doctrines are, but whether we opened up your lives to Mashiyach to write His Torah of righteousness upon our hearts. Are we living for Mashiyach Y'shua or for ourselves? Do we care enough about TRUTH and the souls of others to live for Yeshua and do His Torah?
Have we experienced what it means to bear the infamy of truth for the sake of Mashiyach?
Are we fighting the good fight and presenting ourselves before Mashiyach, or have we bought into religious ideas, becoming garbage collectors of Babylon's movies, religion, and lifestyles. Are we trying to live the "American Dream" in our actions and attitudes, or have we got off of this lifestyle? Are we comparing ourselves with others, thinking we're doing a better job at truth than they? Are we resting in YHWH each Shabbat and during the Moedim, putting Mashiyach in the highest place in our lives, being conformed to Him, or are we going through the motions, following religious ideas, theologies and doctrines, rather than becoming a Kedoshim and building Set-Apart Communities unto our Father. There is important and necessary truth for salvation that we must learn, but our walk in Yeshua is not cerebral based on theology, ideas and doctrines, it is based on being a Kedoshim. We are called to come out of Babylon, live in close proximity with our brothers in Yeshua and have all things in common within the household of Faith. No, the "Believers" in most cases are exactly the same as the rest of the world when it comes to lifestyle, they are detached from each other except for a few hours each week and perhaps come together for the Moedim. Most Believers live private lives and are accountable to no one except themselves, most reject the idea of being a community.
This scripture states that we will be judged according to what we have done, whether it be good or bad.
The biggest deception of mankind is believing "we've got an in with G-d". People say they have a special relationship and connection with G-d, that He takes care of them because "He knows the heart". Yet these same souls rebel against YHWH and violate His Torah and speak against His Torah. Many souls believe they are heaven bound, yet they mock the truth, live carnally, they gossip against those who follow Mashiyach and His Torah. Many carnal Christians believe they will be "raptured" into glory, but those who don't accept their religion are in for severe judgment. Mankind couldn't get much more self serving that this! Mashiyach suffered so that a Kedoshim (Holy People) would be able to stand against the wiles of the enemy and live victorious lives. We are called to obedience in Him and to be spiritual souls who seek to have His Torah written upon our hearts.
YHWH instructs us to live according to righteousness and truth.
The Scriptures teach that YHWH is altogether concerned with judgment and justice. YHWH made it all possible for us to choose how we are to live, He did created our lives, the scripture also says, "he makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust." Matthew 5:45 Even the wicked of the world are walking in YHWH's blessings of life, it is written:
The biggest lie is that the people of YHWH must be faithful to the religions which are being taught in the synagogues, Churches or Mosques. Obviously if these religions were offering the true Faith of the Kingdom of Elohim they would not be such self serving egocentric bastions of theology, but they would seek Judgment, Faith and Mercy.
"As it was in the days of Noah, so it shall be when the Son of Man appears."
Knowing when will Mashiyach will come and set up His Kingdom is not so important, there is a far greater question.
Are we following Mashiyach or have we replaced Him with religion? We can't have both.
The days of Noah saw eights souls spared from destruction, Scripture records that Noah's grandson Nimrod built a tower in defiance to YHWH to restore man-worship against the worship of YHWH. The generation we live in now is far more culpable, we have much information available about the Kingdom of Mashiyach, but the world has rejected Mashiyach and made their own religions out of Him, even in His Name. Those who are supposed to be the guardians of truth are leading the world in all form of man worship, and violation of Torah.
It's time to do Teshuva, return to YHWH, and live for Him in truth.
The peculiar people of YHWH prefer to do righteousness they love YHWH, trust Him and are excited to do His will, celebrate His goodness on the times he appointed, like the Shabbat, Pesach, Succoth etc.
Yeshua stated, "...the Son of man is Master (Lord) even of the Sabbath." Matthew 12:8
The Sabbath is mentioned 62 times in the Ketuvim Netzarim (New Testament), yet false Christianity teaches the Sabbath is bondage, preachers speak against it. How so? Pagan teachings surrounding "Jesus" teach that righteousness is a hardship, Jesus is the "pseudo-messiah" and imposter of the true Mashiyach. Sunday became an identifying factor of false Christianity along with pagan festivals, like Easter, Christmas, etc. Why?
When we confess Yeshua before men we take up the yoke of His Kingdom. Our confession of Yeshua is that He is altogether righteous and just and qualified to be the Saviour of the Earth because He was the Lamb of Elohim, He never violated Torah. With the Ruach HaKodesh in us we walk as He walked, we observe His Torah and show others how to do the same. We confess Him by living a set-apart, holy life unto Him. We don't follow the religious crowds or approve of any willful rebellion against Yeshua or His Torah.
"But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." Matthew 24:36
This prophetic code is given to be understood by those who observe the Moedim (appointed times) of YHWH. It is possible to know His future appointments, by personally attending the appointments He has set for us today, the Feasts of YHWH.
Information in itself is not the answer as some might think and practise. "For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing." Acts 17:21
As we live for Yeshua and Observe Torah each day, we do not concentrate on gathering head knowledge and opinions for the sake of information alone, we are actively preparing ourselves for the Day of YHWH and the coming of Mashiyach.
YHWH be with you, Shalom U'Vrachot,
Baruch Ben Daniel
It is far better to know only a little about the Kingdom of Elohim, and live according to YHWH in what we know. Than to know much about His Kingdom and do little or nothing for it.
