Let's stop here and test your
Moshiach literacy.
It was necessary to tarry or wait seven days for the rain in Genesis 7:4 even though eight souls, who
were being kept alive for a new creation, were already in the ark and were already the L-rd's "shut-in's" ("the L-rd shut Noah in," also see the text there for the one week time frame, Gen 7:4) and even though outside the ark
was only death, for everyone who had not believed was condemned already; so in the aliyyah (upper room) it was
necessary for the Shluchim who were shut in by the L-rd's command (Lk 24:49 to tarry or wait
kaqisate
(to sit, to stay, to remain, to tarry) for seven times seven or 49 days from Pesach to Shavuos for the latter rain of the Tevilah of the Ruach Hakodesh. See Ac 2. In the book of Joel in chapter 2, verse 23, it speaks of the latter rain of the Ruach Hakodesh or Holy Spirit that would be a downpour of end time power and would fall on the believers of the last days. Peter saw leshonot chadashot as the confirming sine qua non sign that the same latter rain downpour of power that had fallen on the people in Corneilius' house had previously also "fallen on" the Jewish people on Shauvuos (Pentecost) in Ac 2. For both groups, the one in the Beis Hamikdash and the one in Cornelius' house, spoke in leshonot chadashot. We see Noah tarrying for one week, Elijah tarrying for a paradigmatic tribulation period of three and a half years, and the Shluchim of Moshiach tarrying for 49 days. They were all tarrying for the rain from G-d, the downpour of heavenly outpouring that G-d would bring. In that downpour Elijah ran before Ahab's chariot and later exited this world in a chariot of fire. Tarrying in the sacrificial lifestyle of Zarephath was actually the L-rd's will for Elijah (1Kgs chapter 17) (and you) until the fire from heaven followed in a downpour of miraculous rain.The wages that Slave Master Sin
pays is eternal death, the endless curse of Hashem. But the
free gift that Ribbono shel
Olam gives is Chayei Olam.Ro
6:23
TEXT.-- Ro 6:7: For he that is
dead is freed from sin. [This means
freed from sin's deadly allurement, freed from sin's deadly bondage, and freed
from sin's deadly divine condemnation, since we have already died with Moshiach,
been buried with Moshiach in Moshiach's mikveh mayim, and have already risen
with him to live a new life in the favor of Hashem.]
When we look at the repentant
ganav (Lk 23:39-43) on the tree, we see someone who is "as good as dead" (Ro 4:19) until he found
Moshiach. If you are a believer, this is your testimony (see virtual tract room) and therewith
you overcome the devil (Rv
12:11). When we look at the repentant ganav on the tree, we see someone who
is put to death on Moshiach's
Etz. We also see someone who has the victory which is our Hashem-given faith
(see 1Yn 5:5). We also might
see ourselves, if we ask Hashem to reveal the truth to us. Think about this
repentant ganav! If Satan tries to lure the ganav to break the Eighth
Commandment now, the ganav's hands and feet will not co-operate. They have the same mallet and spike that
holds Moshiach. This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our Messianic
faith. Satan's lures and bondages and accusations to condemnation are
ineffectual. Knowing this that our old man, our old humanity (in Adam) has been
put to death with Moshiach so that the essence of the old sinful human condition
might be done away with, so that we might no longer serve that old Master Thief
in bondage to Satan, namely, Slave Master Sin. This is why those who are born
again, who can confess the Bar
Enosh from the Atik Yomin, do not go on sinning. It is no longer they who
live but Moshiach who lives in them. And Sin no longer reigns in the old man,
but behold there is a regenerated inner man. On the regenerated inner man, see
Ro 7:22 and Eph 3:16 and 2Co 4:16. In Romans chapter 7,
we find the inner man (Ephesians 3:16), that is, the regenerate spiritual man,
which is called the "mind," because the Holy Spirit has made the believer's mind
agree with the words of the "good" Book (I Corinthians 2:13-16).
Indeed, if our "mind" is renewed, we have the mind of Moshiach. When
we yield to Moshiach, the true "I" can act: "I live,
yet not I, but Moshiach who lives in me."
Daily I must remember that I died and was co-buried when Moshiach died (Romans 6:2-3) and Hashem considers me
legally dead with him, reckoning my faith as right standing before Him (Romans
5:1) and no longer reckoning my past transgressions against
me. So as a believer with my ongoing daily struggle with sin,
I need to remember my victory, that
anyone born of G-d does not continually sin (1Y 5:18) and I must reckon
myself dead unto sin and my members as dead and unusable as weapons of
unrighteousness.
Let's spell this out because it
is vital for you to understand this. Look at page 932 again. Here is revealed
the mystery of how to get to
heaven. Notice we are not told the repentant ganav's name. There's a reason.
You are supposed to supply your own. This is a picture of you as Hashem sees
you. You say, "That's not me; I have never stolen anything." Oh no? You claim
you have never broken the Eighth
Commandment? See Deut 5:19. Really? Well, I have bad news for you. That very
claim makes you guilty of breaking the Ninth Commandment. So you are
guilty, correct? Come on. Spit it out. You are guilty, correct? Now let's start
all over. Look at page 932
again. Notice once again that we are not told the repentant ganav's name.
There's a reason. You are supposed to supply your own. Now here's the all
important question: you HAVE repented, haven't you? You say, "What does that
mean?" Well look at page 932
again. To repent means
that you have come to the end of your rope and you have nothing to hold on to
but Moshiach your only hope, so that you cry out to Moshiach as you see the repentant ganav doing here.
Let me ask you a question: does the repentant ganav look up into heaven and say,
"O Hashem, you see all my mitzvos; therefore, forget about Moshiach hanging here
with me. He died in vain, as far as a tzaddik like me is concerned. Now, just
look at my mitzvos. Oh yes, and listen to me recite the kri'at Shema.
Impressive, all this merit of mine that I've accumulated just for this "death
bed" moment, isn't it, Hashem? Now let me into heaven." Is that what the
repentant ganav says? You say, "Wait! You're making too much of the Aseres
HaDibros." Oh am I? Don't you understand that it was YOUR transgression, YOUR
averos, of the Aseres HaDibros that resulted in Moshiach's death? Don't you
understand what a curse is? The Aseres HaDibros are not Ten Suggestions, they are Ten Commandments. They carry
covenant reprisals. These are called curses. Moshiach did not die because you
occasionally have a "bad hair" day. Moshiach interposed himself to shield
you from the curses that are
pursuing you down through
the generations. When you broke the commandment your transgression triggered
the curse which resulted in Moshiach's having to take your curse, dying in your place (temurah), the
just for the unjust, to bring you to G-d. Are you remorseful about this? Yes? Or
No? Do you now see that even if you were the only person in the world, because you are a transgressor, Moshiach
had to die, had to be the scapegoat to carry away the curse of your
transgression, had to be cut off out of the Land of the Living, had to die for YOUR
transgressions.
You say, "Wait a minute. What curse are you talking
about? The curse of the Eighth and Ninth Commandments. Look at Joshua chapters 6
and 7 here and here and here. Achan broke the Eighth
Commandmant by stealing some of the cherem spoils from the victory at Jericho.
G-d was angry and consequently there was no victory in the camp. This dissembling ganav (Josh 7:11)
brought the curse of defeat and death on himself. But we know the other ganav
repented. Friend, like Achan, you are in the Valley of Trouble and your name
is Disaster (Achar, 1Chronicles
2:7). You say, "All right. I want to repent. How do I do it? How do I make
teshuvah?" Keep reading.
When we are buried in the mikveh mayim with Moshiach this
turning point moment becomes a point of strength for us. Why? Because sometimes
the Holy Spirit will remind us about when we are backslidden, and the Ruach
Hakodesh will say, "You have died, but the old you is not fully buried (Ro 6:1-4). This grieves the Holy
Spirit, so when they say Kaddish over you and scorn you, and you are tempted by
the world, keep weeping through the Jewish funeral your relatives gave you until the funeral of your carnal
nature and your deceitful
heart is also complete. Your stubborn heart and its
darkness, which is a cause for stumbling, must be buried, dust to dust, ashes to
ashes. When the tempter comes, fast and pray and submerge your mind in Scripture and in Spiritual Music and reckon yourself
sitting with Moshiach in his tomb
(Isaiah 53:9) from Erev
Shabbat to Yom Rishon, Moshiach dead FOR your sin, you dead TO your sin,
then reckon yourself seated with
Moshiach in heavenly places, and when the Devil comes to you...
WHEN YOU HAVE MADE ZIKH GE'TOYVL'T IN DER
MIKVE TRUSTING IN THE NAME OF HASHEM AND MOSHIACH TZIDKEINU AND THE RUACH
HAKODESH--ADONOI ECHAD--AND THE DEVIL THEN COMES WITH HIS ACCUSATIONS, HIS
CONDEMNATIONS, HIS STRICTURES OF FALSE GUILT, HIS SATANIC TEMPTATIONS, HIS ZCHUS
DECEPTIONS AND DOCTRINES OF DEMONS AND ALL OF HIS OCCULT LIES, THEN IS THE TIME
FOR YOU TO DRIVE BACK THE ADVERSARY OF YOUR NASHAMAH, BY REMINDING THE DEVIL
ABOUT THE BLOOD OF MOSHIACH'S TEMURAH AND KAPARAH AND GEULAH WHEREIN YOU DIED
AND WERE BURIED WITH YEHOSHUA/YESHUA IN THE TEVILAH KEVER (IMMERSION GRAVE) AND
THEN DAVEN IN THE RUACH HAKODESH LESHONOT CHADASHOT AND DO A TZOM UNTIL SATAN
SEES THAT HE CANNOT CORRUPT YOU, THAT YOU HAVE RESISTED HIM...THEN MEDITATE ON
PAGES 735 TO 745 OF THIS SEFER KODESH...SO WILL YOU GET THE VICTORY
I
once drove past a snow-covered frozen cemetery, and I had a vision. Shammashim
and Zekenim wearing shrouds of death were digging a grave. I was 12 years old
and it was time for my tevilah
kever. See Isaiah 53:9 on
Moshiach's kever. They placed a coffin in the grave hole and commanded me to get
in. I drew back in fear. Then they relented and said, "You can take your Bible,
but nothing more, except its Author, the lover of your
nefesh." So I was buried with Moshiach the lover of my nefesh (Ro 6:4; Shir Hashirim 1:12-13), who had warned me not
to love the world or the
things of the world, but to guard my heart and to keep myself from elilim (idols).
Some girls guard their heart: they get a 'crush' on a boy and suppress it,
temporarily or permanently. But with Moshiach our burial partner we must not have a passing
'crush' but burning tested true love, for Moshiach alone shares each believer's
casket that empties out into chayei olam (eternal life). If you want to know how
you should love Moshiach, look here and here and here and here and here. The repentant ganav's eyes
were on Moshiach Tzidkeinu, not on himself, not on his own supposed merits or
mitzvos, not on anything else but Moshiach Tzidkeinu. Like the moon facing the
Sun, like Elect Israel facing
the Bar Enosh, so Moshiach
arises with healing in his
wings, and by his wounds we
are healed, for He is the Ohr HaOlam that is our Light, for we have no Light
but that which shines in the inerrant Scriptures from Hashem
through Moshiach in the Ruach Hakodesh. Like the moon that has no light in
itself but only reflects the Sun, so we have no righteousness in ourselves but
only the righteousness of Moshiach Tzidkeinu when he took over our sins, when he
led me out through my mikveh Exodus and when he made His purchase of my
redemption and how He bought me and made the temurah (exchange), that is, my
receiving my justification
through Moshiach Tzidkeinu (Jeremiah 23:5-6) and Moshiach
taking over my sins, and how Moshiach carried me out of death and even through
the wilderness of my old nature toward my new life in Him. Now read about the trials in translating. When
you are tempted, you are not alone.

If we point Jewish people to the truth of the Scriptures using Rabbinic writings as a bridge to the closed canon of inerrant Holy Scripture, this is following the methodology endorsed by the Word. For example,
Sanhedrin 98b says the World
was created only on Moshiach's account.
לא not
אברי created
עלמא
the
world
אלא except
למשה for Moshiach.
Co 1:16 (OJB) says all things were
created FOR Moshiach.
