Terumah offerings Page 1 021718 Shevat 30 Exodus 25:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying, Yah s house: a gate or door, an altar of sacrifice, a water basin to be clean, a light - candlestick, a table of bread, a table of incense, a container of Yah s Testimony This house type & shadow is a tent, a temple > today it is our heart. What is written on our hearts? How have YOU and I built God s house (our offering) on the inside of us? at the end of this study Yahweh wants an answer from you and me! vs 2 Speak unto the sons of Israel that they bring me an offering; of every man that gives it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering. This offering is dedicated to Yahweh s Name. This offering is set apart or Holy. (a freewill offering & we decide the amount-from the heart). Yahweh tells Moses to encourage Yah s people to give of their property generously in order to build and support the tabernacle of Yahweh. Note: until Yeshua builds the 3rd Temple the tabernacle of God is represented by places like YSC. YSC is a place where Yahweh has placed His Name. It is the will of Yahweh that we support the place where He places His Name. vs 3-7 bring to Yahweh your gold, silver, copper, special colors of wool, linen, special dyed hair and skins of animals, acacia & cedar wood, pure olive oil, spices, aromatic oils, special stones, vs 8-9 build Me a sanctuary-a Holy place-a place for MY NAME and I, Yahweh, shall show you how to build it. (I will dwell in your midst-actually occurs at NHNE-walking & talking with man & woman as in the Garden of Eden) vs 10-22 Yahweh says build an ARK (seen here in Heaven) (represents Yah s heart) and place My Testimony (Torah) inside. Build the ARK with a cover atonement cover where blood is sprinkled (blood of the Messiah), (some say mercy seat ) with two cherubim (angelic beings) made of gold on the cover of the ark. the cherubim guard Yahweh s Testimony. Yehshua s blood was given for people who HONOR TORAH. I will speak to Moses (the Rhema word) above and between the two cherubim above My Testimony (the Logos word). As one reads the logos word Yah may give one a rhema word and sometimes the rhema word seems to come out of no-where.
Terumah offerings Page 2 021718 Shevat 30 Genesis 3:24-same cherubim with a flaming sword that guard the entrance to the Garden of Eden -the Tree of Life-Torah is a tree of life. a soon future day of atonement will occur just before the books are sealed at the beginning of the 1000 year Messianic Age. another one will occur after the 2nd Resurrection and before the NHNE. Note: Is Yahweh s testimony IMPORTANT? how do we overcome the adversary? the word of our testimony Rev 12:11 We need to have the same TESTIMONY as Yahweh!!! TORAH vs 23 build Me a table (table of showbread) and construct it so that the bread will not become moldy vs 30 keep this showbread in my tabernacle all the time vs 31 build a (lampstand) menorah of pure gold decorated with knobs and flowers Exodus 26-27 build My Tabernacle or Tent with curtains, loops, clasps, boards or poles, sockets, rings, dividing curtains, hooks, screens, hangings, etc. build My altar along with spoons and pots for the ashes, flesh hooks, basins for the sprinkled blood. Make also hooks & poles to move the altar and a ramp to the altar The tabernacle or temple: The Garden of Eden was the last time Yah lived with His people. Yah wants to live with His people in the NHNE. There are temporary temples between these two events. One is the Tent of Meeting. One is Solomon s temple, and one is Herod s temple. All these temples were destroyed because of sin. Today the temple is inside us IF Torah is written on our hearts. If not written on our hearts, then our temple is incomplete-it may only consists of an outer courtyard due to a lack of sanctification. This house or temple of Yah has 3 compartments: 1. an outer courtyard with an altar where sacrifice & blood are (Yeshua) with a basin to wash us clean. (we are washed clean by Yeshua when we repent, but can one sin after being saved? 2. an inner courtyard (or Holy Place) where the menorah, table of showbread, and altar of incense are located (representing santification if we choose it. 3. a Holy of Holies (or most Holy Place) where the ARK of Yah s testimony is located
Terumah offerings Page 3 021718 Shevat 30 A veil divides the outer courtyard from the inner courtyard. This is the veil that was torn. Christians now have access to the Holy Place to be sanctified without a human priest for Yeshua is our High Priest. A veil also separates the Inner Courtyard from the Holy of Holies. If we are sanctified by doing Torah we can cross this veil to enter the Holy of Holies where the ARK or Torah is located. This veil separates the Inner Courtyard. HEARING THE VOICE OF YAH : Heathens can hear the voice of God outside the Tent or Temple Some Christians hear the voice of God in the outer courtyard. They never go further. Some Christians hear the voice of God in the inner courtyard. They never go further. And Some Christians will hear the voice of God FROM the Holy of Holies. I believe the voice of God in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 will come from the Holy of Holies so to hear this voice much sanctification must occur. It is not hard to do, but one must have a passion to do it. Yahweh wants you to cross-over so listen to Him 24/7 and walk like Yeshua. How? Do Torah and obey the Holy Spirit doing the fruit of the spirit. Halftarah 1 Kings 5 & 6 5:1 In the month of Iyar the 2nd month (announce handout) Yahweh told Solomon to build His tabernacle (house, sanctuary, temple) and makes an oath to Solomon: 5:12 IF you will walk in my Torah and keep ALL my commandments THEN I will not forsake you or the people and KEEP MY OATH TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Often we hear Christians say well it is impossible to keep all the commandments and that is why Jesus freed us from the Law by doing it for us. True It is impossible to keep all of man s commandments-what Paul says! It is certainly doable to keep all of God s commandments OR GOD WOULD BE BREAKING HIS OATH TO SOLOMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My question to you: Does God swear an oath and break it? Either God is a liar or you Christians only know the milk of the scriptures and you have been snared by the deceiver.
Terumah offerings Page 4 021718 Shevat 30 New Testament: Matthew 5:33-37 These verses are talking about swearing and keeping OATHS. Do many of us break this commandment? It is easy sin & break an oath. So: Let your yes be yes and your no be no. Anything more is sin and brings condemnation (James 5:12) We so easily break oaths by saying more than yes or no, by making promises we don t keep, etc. oaths or vows are serious Read Acts 5:8-12 Ananais & Sepphira vowed an amount to give then changed their mind. they died. IF ONE MAKES A VOW OR PROMISE TO GOD, DO NOT CHANGE YOUR MIND Closing COMMENTARY ON THESE TORAH PORTIONS. Questions: 1. Are you and I commanded to built a house-temple for Yah? 2. Where is this temple today? 3. Can this temple be polluted? 4. What is written on our hearts? 5. How have YOU and I built God s house (our offering) on the inside of us? Zechariah 6:12 Yeshua the branch shall build the temple of God Matthew 26 & Mark 14:58 I, Yeshua, will destroy this temple (Herod s temple) and build another in 3 days. 1 Corinthians 3:16 you are the temple of God (with Torah written on your hearts) (because the Ark of the Testimony can no longer be in a temple of wood & stone as it was destroyed) the problem today is that we decide what is in our temple just salvation at the altar of sacrifice or sanctified with the bread (Torah or logos word) and the spirit (rhema word).
Terumah offerings Page 5 021718 Shevat 30 2 Corinthians 6:16 you cannot entertain idols anything against Torah or God cannot dwell in you HAS THIS HAPPENED IN THE PAST? HAS GOD S TEMPLE BEEN POLLUTED, DEFILED IN THE PAST? yes yes yes one example: Jeremiah 7:1-15 Yahweh says to the people living in Jerusalem where the temple of God was located: Do not do evil before me and at this temple and say you belong to this temple, to this temple. Amend your ways and stop making false oaths (swearing), stop stealing, stop committing adultery, stop burning incense or praying to Baal Jeremiah 7 Stop making unleavened ash cakes to the Queen of Heaven (Ishtar, Aphrodite, Ashtaroth, Isis, Astarte), stop infant sacrifice to Baal. (also read in Jeremiah 44) You pollute MY TEMPLE, you defile it. verse 10 Stop saying that you are free to do all these abominations. The same thing is happening today to God s people!!!! They say they are free to eat ham on Easter, they are free to observe the 1st Day of the week as their Sabbath, etc. I hear all the time Jesus has set me free, free, free from the law. So sad. So deceived just like the people living in Jerusalem in Jeremiah s day. You provoke your God to anger! There has been a great falling away called apostasia (2 Thessalonians 2:3 & Acts 21:21). This falling away will get worse with the 2nd Coming, but at the same time there is a fresh calling of God to become set apart. Remember Yahweh told Solomon: 1 Kings 6:12 IF you will walk in my Torah and keep ALL my commandments THEN I will not forsake you or the people and KEEP MY OATH TO YOU. You will cross-over. BUT 1ST COMES A REFINING FIRE: Malachi 3:1 Behold, I send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me; and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, (AND THERE WILL BE 12 GATES FOR THE 12 TRIBES) with the covenant of (Torah), whom ye desire: behold, he comes, said the LORD of the hosts.
Terumah offerings Page 6 021718 Shevat 30 Yah shall purify the sons of Levi (THE TORAH TEACHERS) ( to help teach the brethren how to become set-apart.) Malachi 3 But who (people with Yah s temple on the inside) may abide (who will live) at the time of his coming? and who shall stand when he appears? for he shall be like a refiner s fire to pull us Torah Keepers-the set-apart out of the world. Revelation 3:12 he that overcomes (DOES TORAH) shall be a pillar in my FUTURE TEMPLE 13 He that has an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the church- Christianity Revelation 11:1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod, and he said unto me, Rise and measure the temple of God and the altar and those that worship therein. vs 2 But leave out the court which is within the temple and measure it not (either the outer courtyard or the inner courtyard, but definitely not the Holy of Holies where there is the TORAH. WHY? LEAVE OUT THE OUTER COURT because I Yahweh change not!!!!!!! vs 17 and I shall gather my JEWELS my Torah Keepers. vs 19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of his testament was seen in his temple: and there were lightnings and voices and thunderings and earthquakes and great hail. Revelation 21:19 the temple of God in heaven was open and there I saw the ARK of the Testimony-TORAH. Revelation 21 I saw a NHNE and behold I saw the Tabernacle of God (Torah) is with men vs 5 I saw God sitting upon His throne (ruling with Torah) vs 21 and I saw no temple for Yahweh or Yeshua for they ARE THE TEMPLE they are one in Torah The Gate: to enter THIS HOUSE We must understand Moses & Jesus (John 5:46-47). If we don t understand Jesus, he will say depart from me. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8 Jesus takes vengeance on ALL who do not obey the GOSPEL OF JESUS.
Terumah offerings Page 7 021718 Shevat 30 Psalm 24:3 Who may ascend the hill and stand in Yahweh s Holy Place? John 3:16 whosoever believes in Jesus shall not perish but have eternal life ARE WE SAVED BY BELIEVING IN JESUS? IS THIS WHAT JOHN 3:16 SAYS? YES and NO! however, we do need to consider ALL the scriptures to get clarification. James 2:19 the demons believe in God and tremble so are demons saved? the little Greek preposition et G1537: is translated as out of, of, from, by, on, or with in is not even a choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Galatians 2:16 we are justified (saved) by believing in Jesus? Is this what this verse says or is there translation bias within this verse? NIV & most bible versions There are 3 bible versions when Galatians 2:16 reads differently: JUB, ISV, KJV Galatians 2:16 we are justified (saved) BY the faith OF Jesus (not believing in Jesus) What saves us, is the faith of Jesus, so what was the faith of Jesus? His faith and His Father s faith are one and the same-john 10:30). Jesus obeyed Torah. Torah is the faith of Jesus so we are saved by the faith of Torah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What kind of faith did we have when we 1st came to Jesus. Our faith was miniscule. After I confessed my sin believing that Jesus died FOR ME, then the Holy Spirit teaches me the faith of Yeshua and that is what saves me. The only faith that I had was that Jesus died for my sin. My faith was hardly in operation at all. I did not have the faith of Jesus His Faith. Romans 10:17 for faith COMETH by hearing the word of God. Faith is a fruit of the Spirit. To have faith as a fruit, there has to be works TO PROVE that I was saved or that my salvation was genuine because faith without works is dead. But the works did not save me!!!!!!!!!! The faith of Yeshua saves me!!! Torah!!!
Terumah offerings Page 8 021718 Shevat 30 So, if you are right about Torah being done away, what harm does it do me? None. I still worship, but just not on the day you do. I still eat plenty of food, just not some of the foods you eat. I am very happy as I hope you are. But what if I am right? What harm comes to you? Plenty! You miss the 1st Resurrection-Crossing Over event (1Thess4:17) because Jesus says depart from me because you do not understand a Torah Observant High Priest & King. There is hope because you will be raised to life with the good in the 2nd Resurrection (Daniel 12:2, John 5:29) But why take that chance? You will need to change a few things to cross-over. It is fun. We can help. Yeshua s own words to pagans? No Yeshua s own words to believers there is a narrow way & a broad way. We choose. Yahweh will ONLY meet us some day in the Holy of Holies where His Ark of Torah is. The house we build with what we offer back to God is a freewill offering and IT MUST LOOK LIKE THE ONE YAHWEH TOLD MOSES TO BUILD
