| The Never Ending Statute Throughout Your Generations | ||||||
| Are we to keep the feast and the commandments of Yahweh? Num 15:15 As for the congregation, there shall be one statute both for you and for the alien that lives with you, a never ending statute throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the alien be before Yahweh. Deu 7:9 Because of this, know that Yahweh your Elohim, He is Elohim, the faithful El, keeping the covenant and mercy to those who love Him, and to those who keep His commands, to a thousand generations; Mat 1:17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon until the Messiah, fourteen generations. There were 42 generations from Abraham to Messiah Yahoshua, which is a span of some 2,000 years. Since His resurrection, another 2,000 years have passed. No more than 90 generations have passed since Abraham. Looking ahead, Yahweh's statutes are still for today as a thousand generations have not ended. |

| The Sabbaths are a never ending statute and a sign between Yahweh and His believers. Eze 20:12 And I also gave them My Sabbaths to be a sign between Me and them, that they might know that I am Yahweh who sets them apart. In the Ten Commandments Yahweh is telling us that He will be kind to those keeping His commandments for a thousand generations. Exo 20:6 and doing kindness to thousands, to those loving Me, and to those keeping My commandments. If we love Yahweh we will keep His commandments because love is the fulfillment of the Torah. Rom 13:8 Do not continue to owe no one, nothing, except to love one another. For the one loving the other has fulfilled the Torah (Law). Lets not forget what the scribes asked Messiah Yahoshua what is the first commandment of all? You'll notice this a direct quote from the Torah. Mar 12:28 And coming up, one of the scribes, hearing them arguing, knowing that He answered them well, he questioned Him, What is the first commandment of all? Mar 12:29 And Yahoshua answered him, The first of all the commandments is: "Hear, Israel. Yahweh our Elohim is one El, Mar 12:30 and you shall love Yahweh your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your soul" and with all your mind, "and with all your strength." This is the first commandment. Deut. 6:4, 5 Mar 12:31 And the second is like this, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." There is not another commandment greater than these. Lev. 19:18 |

| Yahweh sees His believers as a special treasure for keeping His covenant. Exo 19:5 And now if listening you will listen to My voice, and will keep My covenant, you shall become a special treasure to Me above all the nations, for all the earth is Mine. According to Isaiah all will have to keep the feast of Yahweh now and in the future. Isa 66:23 And it will be, from new moon to its new moon, and from Sabbath to its Sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before Me, says Yahweh. Zechariah 14:1-21 makes it very clear all nations will have to keep the feast of Yahweh. Does not Paul make it very clear to let not one judge you? Col 2:16 Then do not let anyone judge you in eating, or in drinking, or in part of a feast, or of a new moon, or of sabbaths, Col 2:17 which are a shadow of coming things, but the body is of Messiah. So many teach that Paul was teaching to do away with the feast and to allow you to pick and choose your own commandments and to eat unclean foods. After reading Col 2:16 was Paul really teaching against the commandments? Just who are Yahweh's people? Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew that is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that outwardly in flesh; Rom 2:29 but he is a Jew that is one inwardly, and circumcision is of heart, in spirit, not in letter; of whom the praise is not from men, but from Yahweh. Gal 3:28 There cannot be Jew nor Greek, there is no slave nor freeman, there is no male and female; for you are all one in Messiah Yahoshua. Gal 3:29 And if you are of Messiah, then you are a seed of Abraham, even heirs according to promise. Did Yahweh change His mind about His commandments? Mal 3:6 For I, Yahweh, change not. Because of this, you sons of Jacob are not destroyed. Does Yahweh know those who will hate His instructions? Psa 50:17 Yea, you hate instruction and toss My Words behind you. Both New and Old Testement back the Words of Yahweh Almighty and we are nowhere near a thousand generations. |
