I AM

My Memorial for generation after generation.”

Shemot 3:13-16

This is MY NAME for ever,

I AM / WILL BE WHAT I AM / WILL BE:

"And YHWH said to mosheh , 'I am that which I am. [ehyeh asher ehyeh]' and

he said, 'so you will say to the sons of Y’isra’EL, "I am [ehyeh] has sent me to

you." 'and YHWH said further to mosheh, 'now you are to say to the sons of

Y’isra’EL, "YHWH, elohey of your fathers Abraham, Yitzchak [Isaac], and

Yaa’qob [Jacob], has sent me to you. this is my name forever, and this is my

memorial for generation to generation." ' "Shemoth 6:3," 'and I appeared to

Abraham, to Yitzchak, and to Yaa’qob as hashadday [the almighty]. and my

name, YHWH, was not well known (famous) to them.

YHWH, ELohey Tsebaoth, is his name.

The ministry of reconciliation

Message of Reconciliation

Torah sh’Bichtav

(Written Torah)

Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Yahu(ah)shua

Page 3: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

YHWH the Elohim of Mercy shows mercy unto thousands of them that love

Him, and shomrei (guard) His mitzvot (commandments).

Lovingkindness: or "mercy". Thousands: an idiom for a huge amount. Note

how "mercy triumphs over judgment."

Yaaqov 2:13

For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and

mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

Page 4: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

YHWH indeed prefers that we show mercy from the start rather than having to

come back and make a sacrifice because we overstepped.

Hos. 6:6

For I desired chesed, and not zevach (sacrifice); and the daat of Elohim (אלהים)

more than olot.

“because faithfulness is what I wanted, and not [sacrificial] slaughter, and

knowledge of Elohim more than ascending offerings!

Faithfulness: or mercy, courtesy. And not: a Hebrew idiom paralleling the “more

than” in the next phrase

. It does not mean He has changed His mind about what He commanded, but

that His intent is to engender faithfulness (or mercy, lovingkindness) so that the

sacrifices are not necessary.

Yahu(ah)shua quoted this verse to make His point in

Mattiyahu . 9:13;

But go you and learn what [that] meaneth, "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice":

for I am not come to call the tzaddikim (righteous), but sinners to repentance.

Lit., "I want mercy and not sacrifice", a Hebrew idiom for "If I had to choose

one, this is which it would be", not that the other is not still what He called for.

Go and learn: common Hebraic language of debate or challenge. (Lachs)

Yahu(ah)shua quotes Hoshea's word to an earlier generation of religious folk

who were missing the point of the rituals in Torah: YHWH's desire that sinners

be salvaged. I am not here: Lit., "I have not come...", but this is a Hebrew

idiomatic use. (Bivin) Call: Aram., "invite"

Luk. 14:24

For I say unto you: That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my

dinner.

Page 5: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

His is a community "called out" from sin, exploitation, and religious pride,

but not from devotion to YHWH.

If these men had truly been righteous,

They would be glad that He was lending sinners a hand out of their lifestyle,

rather than being afraid of guilt by association.

Call to repentance: Heb., restore.

Mattiyahu 12:7.

But if ye had known what [this] meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice

(Hoshea 6:6), ye would not have condemned the guiltless.

Compare YHWH’s words to King Sha’ul in

1 Shmuel 15:22,

And Shemuel(ׁשמּואל) said: Hath YHWH (יהוה) [as great] delight in Olot and

sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of YHWH (יהוה)?

Behold, to obey [is] better than sacrifice, [and] to hearken than the fat of rams.

and Yahu(ah)shua’s comparison of “drawing-near” offerings to our obligations

to our fellow men

Mark 7:11

But you say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, [It is] Korban, that is to

say, a gift, by whatsoever you mightest be profited by me; [he shall be free].

Also, He would rather we repent than that He have to slaughter us;

He prefers to have mercy on us. Knowledge of: or intimacy with.

Compare Yahu(ah)shua’s parable in

Mat. 18:23-35.

Page 6: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

Therefore is the Kingdom of Heaven likened unto a certain king, which would

take account of his avadim.

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him

ten thousand talents But forasmuch as he had not to pay,

his master commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he

had, and payment to be made.

Mercy: Aramaic, befriending. Mercy triumphs: Aram. By mercy you will be

elevated above judgment.

This does not mean judgment will be canceled, for in Yaaqov just said we would

indeed be judged by the Torah

But if we follow it, there is no need to fear the judgment, for we will pass the

test if we demonstrate our love for YHWH in the way He said to do so

If we walk within its parameters, we will love our neighbors as ourselves, and

will thus be judged as part of Israel;

If we walk in selfishness, we will have to be judged alone as individuals who

are not acting as part of a community,

And how can we stand up to such a fierce standard?

The true rendering of Numbers 6:22 -25 reads

Page 7: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

YHWH clearly prefers to be merciful,

But we must make this possible for Him through guarding or building a hedge

around His commandments instead of building emergency scenarios in our

minds

If we do not create a receptacle with which to channel His mercy,

It will leak away.

So use the "sandbag" of Torah so we can experience it.

1 Yochanan 5:2

By this we know that we ahav the benai Elohim, when we ahav Elohim, and

keep His Mitzvot.

It is not as children of YHWH (Yahuah) that I love the brethren, unless I love

YHWH (Yahuah) of whom they are born.

I may love them individually as companions, or I may love some among them,

but not as the children of YHWH (Yahuah)

If I do not love YHWH (Yahuah) Himself.

If YHWH (Yahuah) Himself has not His true place in my heart, that which

bears the name of love to the brethren shuts out YHWH (Yahuah);

And that in so much the more complete and subtle manner,

Because our link with them bears the sacred name of brotherly love.

Page 8: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

When we become not just hearers but DOERS of HIS WORD, we become

Y’ISRAELITIES ,

Because the whole of the book called the bible is about one nation Y’Isra’EL

which is open to all peoples who wish to become part of YHWH (Yahuah)'s

family,

With fellow believers as our brothers and sisters.

It is YHWH (Yahuah) who determines who the other family members are, not

us.

We are simply called to accept and love them.

How well do you treat your fellow family members?

And in the above paragraph is an amazing truth

have you often wondered why your own blood brothers and sisters, friends and

colleagues ,

shun you and immediately change the subject when religion is approached,

the answer is simple, they have not been called yet!

Now this will leave you speechless

Yochanan 15:16

Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you,

that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain:

that whatsoever ye shall ask of ha Avi in My Name, he may give it you.

PLEASE READ THAT AGAIN

Awesome Truth

HE CHOSE YOU

Page 9: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

And he Ordained you

1 Yochanan 2:27

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you,

and ye need not that any man teach you:

but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things,

and is emet, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you,

The Ruakh HaQodesh is YHWH (Yahuah)'s guarantee that we belong to him

and that he will do what he has promised.

The Ruakh HaQodesh is like a down payment, a deposit, a validating signature

on the contract.

The presence of the Ruakh HaQodesh in us demonstrates the genuineness of our

faith, proves that we are YHWH (Yahuah)'s children, and secures eternal life for

us.

His power works in us to transform us now, and what we experience now is a

taste of the total change we will experience in eternity.

,

"the word of truth"

Ephesios 1:13-14

In whom you also trusted, after that you heard the Dvar (word)of truth,

the Good News of your Yeshu'ah (deliverance):

Page 10: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

In whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Ruakh haQodesh

of promise,

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased

possession, unto the praise of His glory.

Yochanan 15:19

If ye were of the Olam Hazeh, the Olam Hazeh would love his own:

But because ye are not of the Olam Hazeh, but I have chosen you out of the

Olam Hazeh,

therefore the Olam Hazeh hateth you.

Modern day translation reads

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own:

but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world,

therefore the world hateth you.

YET STILL ITS YOUR CHOICE

(has with Adam and Havah the choice is yours)

From the beginning, He chose you. That's why you're in the Word even now.

If you ignore YHWH (Yahuah)'s tug on your heart, it will be because you are

not chosen by YHWH (Yahuah).

If you choose YHWH (Yahuah) today, it will be because He already chose you.

Page 11: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

2nd-Thessalonikeus 2:13

But we are bound to give thanks alway to **Elohim / Eloah (אלהים) for you,

our achim beloved of YHWH, because **Elohim / Eloah (אלהים) hath from the

beginning chosen you

to salvation through sanctification of the Ruakh and belief of the truth:

Salvation begins and ends with YHWH (Yahuah).

We can do nothing to be saved on our own merit. we must accept YHWH

(Yahuah)'s gift of salvation

There is no other way to receive forgiveness from sin.

Being SET APART is the MEASURE of our FAITH, in the BELIEVE that we

WALK again in HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS

Which is the very love he has for us in that while we were yet sinners,

(BREAKERS of the LAW)

He turned out pathway to his commandments and we guard them in this life

Ephesios 1:4

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that

we should be set apart and without blame before Him in love:

1 Yochanan 5:5

Who is he that overcometh ha olam hazeh, but he that believeth that

Yahu(ah)shua (ישוע) is the BEN Elohim?

1 Yochanan 1:5

Page 12: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

By whom we have received unmerited favour and the calling of a sholiach, for

obedience to the emunah among all nations, for His NAME:

1 Yochanan 3:22

And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep His Mitzvot, and

do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

1 Yochanan 3:23

And this is his mitzvah, That we should believe on the Name of His SON

Yeshua (ישוע) ha Moshiach, and love one another, as he gave us mitzvah.

1 Yochanan 3:24

And he that keepeth His Mitzvot dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we

know that he abideth in us, by the Ruach which he hath given us.

Who is he that overcometh ha olam hazeh, but he that believeth that Yeshua

?is the BEN Elohim (ישוע)

By keeping his commandments we step out of sync with the world

1 Yochanan 5:3

For this is the ahavah Elohim, that we shomer His Mitzvot: and His Mitzvot are

not burdensome.

Page 13: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

2 Yochanan 6

And this is love, that we halak after His Mitzvot. This is the mitzvah, That, as ye

have heard from the beginning, ye should halak in it.

So the chiose is yours, has you stand before two trees in your life

One lives in the world, and its knowledge of good and evil ,

hasatan

the other overcomes the world with the Righteousness Tree of Life

how do we fulfill this scripture

Shemot 19:5

Now therefore, if ye will obey MY Kol indeed, and keep MY Brit, then ye shall

be a peculiar treasure unto Me above all people: for all the earth [is] Mine: how

do we fulfill this scripture

Hear, listen, keep: to leave out any of these will keep us from receiving the

fullness of the gift He wants to give us through His instruction (Torah). Listen

within: or „listen into"--hear the depths of what I am saying behind the words,

the Ruakh ( spirit) that lies behind the letter. Rashi said this means that if we

hear and obey once, we will be able to keep hearing and improve in our

Page 14: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

obedience. The first step is the hardest, and as we get over that hump, it will

become easier until it becomes second nature. We must not despise small

beginnings. To be able to obey in bigger things, we must obey in the smallest. If

a child will not obey his parent, how can he ever obey the Torah? If a student

will not listen to his teacher, how will he ever hear YHWH's voice? A uniquely

valued treasure: literally, sealed up and hidden away. Others may see us as

imprisoned in His box, "having to" do things not required of them, losing our

rights, or being "under" the Law. But it implies being guarded to the degree that

Fort Knox or a top-secret military installation is. When everything else gets

stolen (and it will), Y’Isra’EL will not, because it is locked away in His "harem"

(which in Semitic languages really has a positive meaning of being specially set

apart). Everyone belongs to YHWH, but Y’Isra’EL will be special to Him—on

the condition that we put into the relationships what we are supposed to; it is not

a one-sided promise. Do what He says, and you will be glad you did. Guard the

covenant carefully, and He will show us, but we must be the first to act, because

we are the less trustworthy party.

Shemot 19:6

And ye shall be unto Me a Mamlakah Kohenim, and an Kadosh nation. These

[are] the Devarim which thou shalt speak unto the Benai Yisrael.

A separated nation: in a class of its own. The very idea calls for judgment,

because to separate we must discriminate between different things. We cannot

just accept anything. This is not popular today, but if we are not comfortable

with it, we must become so by practicing it! To be ready to hear from YHWH,

we must set things apart in our minds as well. Those who refuse to judge or be

judged can by definition never be set apart. As He prepares to bring her into the

covenant of betrothal at Sinai, He wants her to have no doubt that He loves no

one but her. He came to Egypt to get her, but did not stay; there were other

elohim in place there. He fought them for her, but has now carried her to His

own home. (At this time, Sinai was His special dwelling place.) Since

Yahu(ah)shua sent envoys to gather the lost sheep of the House of Y’Isra’EL

back into covenant through his blood, the same holds true for us (1 Kefa/Peter

2:9). Priests: to help others approach YHWH. Israel had its own priests

(literally, officiators), but as YHWH's firstborn, the entire people was called to

be a priest, or light to the nations. We officiate on His behalf, not our own--not

even for the sake of Israel as such, but for the sake of Tzion, which is Israel as

joined together with YHWH. And this is not a prophecy or a promise, but a

command. It will not just fall into place if we wait long enough; we have to do

Page 15: If you love me, you shall guard my commands

what must be cone (v. 5) to make it a reality. A chosen race: i.e., Israel

(Yeshayahu 44:1-2). Called: summoned or invited. Royal order of priests:

Aramaic, that serves as a priest for the Kingdom. People kept back: Aramaic, a

rescued congregation.

A Kingdom consists of four things

A KING

LAWS

SUBJECTS

LAND

We have a KING of KINGS, a ROYAL LAW ( Torah) , we are his SUBJECTS,

who are going home to the KINGDOM of YHWH.

My prayers are towards you all for like me you are a sojouner

Tehillim_119:19

I am a sojourner in the earth; Do not hide Your commands from me.

Who needs his commands

[which] will help thee; al-tira (fear not), O Yaakov, my eved; and thou, Yesurun,

whom I have bachar (chosen).

Be not blind to the truth

And, hinnei, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that

passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O YHWH, [thou] Ben ( יהושע

David. And

Yahu(ah)shua stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do

unto you?

They say unto Him, YHWH, that our eyes may be opened. So Yahu(ah)shua had

compassion [on them], and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes

received sight, and they followed him.
