Topic: Strive for unity and love in the Body Of Christ.
James 3:14-18 (KJV) 14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA)
THE GOSPEL OF JOHN CHAPTER 13 by Timothy (Raymond Miranda)
John 13:1-3 (KJV) verse 3 “…Giving all things into his hands…”
John 10:28-29 (KJV) 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. Eph. 4:24 (KJV) And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness Rom. 13:12 (KJV) The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.
John 13:4-5 (KJV) Walk in the light… (John 8:12, John 1:4-9, John 3:21, John 11:9, John 12:35) Drink from him (YESHUA JESUS The Water of Life) (John 4:10-14, John 3:5, John 7:37-38) YESHUA’s humility is to show HIS disciple’s and us what our Halacha (walk/ feet) should be. Our Halacha is to be washed through the river of water of life.
Rev. 22:1 (KJV) And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
John 13:6-20 (KJV) Verse 16 “…no greater…” 1 Corinthians 3:6 (KJV) I (Paul) have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase Echad (oneness) – Agency Verse 18 Psalm 41:9 (KJV) Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me YESHUA JESUS is reaffirming their belief and faith when his time comes to pass.

John 13:21-30 (KJV) We would keep in mind during Passover (Pesach), we are familiar with the the sop V.26 John 13:30 (KJV) He (Judas) then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night. Went immediately? Can darkness mix with light? (John 3:20, John 11:9)
John 13:31-38 (KJV) John 7:33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me. 34Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come John 8:21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. John 13:36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards

Topic: Understanding Shavuot and Pentecost as God's Feasts
Shavuot (Jews) & Pentecost (Church) are same day in remembrance of Torah given at Mt. Sinai for the Jews and for the Gentile Church it is when Holy Spirit fell on Jesus’ disciples bringing the Gifts of the HOLY SPIRIT
Lessons:
TORAH
Two loaves of leavened bread from the wheat harvest are the Firstfruits offering of Shavuot. Leavened bread is a product of yeast fermentation to puff-up the bread. Leaven bread is imperfect for Temple usage in Sacrifices but it can be made Holy by Torah! Leviticus 23:17 (KJV)
Why 2 loaves leaven bread?
There are two peoples set apart by The God of Abraham-Isaac-Jacob. Both groups are blind & need to repent with a sin wave-offering before The Lord.
Shavuot Readings: Exodus 19:1-8 (KJV) Exodus 19:9-9-17 (KJV) Exodus 19:18-25 (KJV) Exodus 20:1-17 (KJV) Exodus 20:18-21 (KJV) Exodus 24:4,7 Who are the seventy Elders? (Numbers 11:16-17) Exodus 24:9-11 (KJV)

Have a restful and sanctified Shavuot and Pentecost.

6-07-08 (4 Sivan 5768)	Torah Study #36	Naso “Make an accounting”
Torah Readings: Numbers 4:21-7:89
Topic: Christ showed no partiality for He died for the sins of every man & woman allowing for everyone to be covered by His Atonement. The Father desires that none be lost and all come to Salvation.
As a captive of sin and death, Christ's atoning death has paid the sin price...tetelestai ...It is Finished.
Lessons:
TORAH
Numbers 5:1-4 (KJV) God’s obedient Hebrew people are inside the Camp. God took these people and called them by His Name. Today, the ecclesia is called by His Name …Christians.
1 Peter 4:16 (KJV) 16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
Who is outside the Camp?....Unclean/Leprosy/death is a metaphor of what? The law of sin and death
Luke 16:19-31 (KJV) Where are God’s People? What is outside the Camp? Only two eternal choices.

TANACH
Psalm 68:1-6 (KJV) Can you see the two Camps? Who was released from bondage? By Whom?
Luke 4:18 (KJV) 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.
We were captives in bondage to sin and death.
The first Adam brought SIN & DEATH to all mankind. Christ, the second Adam, brings life to all those who seek His gift. Since Adam, mankind has been under bondage to sin and death. The blood of innocent animals was a temporary covering for sin until Christ’s atoning death.
The sacrifices were a shadow of things to come as they pointed to the Cross. Since Torah given > hundreds of thousands of animal sacrifices were offered on the Altar of Burnt Offerings … The Blood was a temporary covering of sin.
Hebrews 10:1-4 (KJV) 1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. 2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. 3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. 4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
This temporary covering of sin was a foreshadow of the New Covenant that God had ordained from before the foundations of the creation. We need a Savior. For under the Law of Moses (Torah) no man/woman is justified. For all of us sin and come short of the Glory of God.
Galatians 2:21 (KJV) 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. 1 Peter 1:18-20 (KJV) 18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
Psalm 68:15-21 (KJV) We were captives to sin and death.
2 Timothy 2:22-26 (KJV) * strive ..of those who engage in a war of words, to quarrel, wrangle, dispute. Colossians 2:13-15 (KJV)13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT Chadasha)
Ephesians 4:1-16 (KJV) Does this verse sound familiar? The victor has authority over the captives. The victor marches home with his captives.
2 Chronicles 28:8 (KJV) 8 And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.
2 Timothy 1:8 (KJV) 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; Hebrews 2:14-15 (KJV)14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
Christ showed no partiality for He died for the sins of all men/women (the righteous and unrighteous) that by free-will the captives can choose their destiny.
The choices in the world:
is to listen to the desires of the carnal man..Be worldly or heed the thoughts of Satan… become his servant or heed the Holy Spirit….become sanctified and holy.
BUT …Your eternal choice has only one destiny.
Hell being cast into the eternal Lake of Fire Heaven to see Abba Face to face. (sit under the fig tree)
Romans 7:23-25 (KJV) captive to the law of sin and spiritual death. Being taken from bondage of sin we are victors. When Jesus freed the captives and took “captivity captive,” you became a “prisoner” of Christ as He was victor over sin and death and all power and authority of the devil as Jesus now held the keys to hell and death (Rev. 1:18). …and those of you that believe on Him become by free-will His “bond-servants” …being released from captivity….and those Christian Overcomers that serve Him, He gives the gifts of His Ministry. Yeshua Jesus released His prisoners to their free-will. Ha'Satan holds his prisoners in bondage and usurps their free-will.
1 Corinthians 15:54-57 (KJV) Christ is the victor over principalities, powers, mights (kings, rulers), dominions and all the powers of the enemy,… If so willing ...... you can become His prisoner and victor over sin and death.
What are the gifts He gives? He brings to the Body of Christ the attributes and Gifts of the Holy Spirit…and the anointing gifts given the Body of Christ as the 5-fold ministry. That you may be His Ambassador being in the image of Christ as a Doer of the Word and Walker of the Word (Halachah)
Remember: you are not in bondage to sin/death but a “captive” of Christ for by Christ’s atonement the believer may see the Father. The Harvest is upon us and the workers are few! It’s time to transform from religious Church work to Kingdom work. We are seeing the signs of the times. There is work for the Body to do with their Gifts and anointing using their authority and power…
…. Join the Army of God.
John 14:12 (KJV) 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Torah Study #35

Bamidbar
“in the wilderness”

Torah Readings: Numbers 1:1-4:20

Topic: God’s plan revealed in the Cross.

Lessons:

TORAH

The numbering of the tribes with their standards,

Numbers1:2-4 (KJV) The Commandment from Abba Father.
Numbers1:26-31 (KJV) ..numbered by standard of Judah
Numbers 2:3-9 (KJV) .....numbered by standard of Judah

The numbering of the tribes with their standards, with specific geographic positioning around the camp of the Levites. Not in random confusion.
Examine this 2 witness numbering by the literal interpretation of the scriptures as duplicated numbers in above example of tribes under Judah's Standard of the Lion as recorded in Numbers 1:26-31 and Numbers 2:3-9.

TRIBE	NNumbers 1:20-43	Numbers 2:1-32
Judah	74,600	76,600
Issachar	54,400	54,400
Zebulon	57,400	57,400
Rubin	46,500	46,500
Simeon	59,300	59,300
Gad	45,600	45,600
Ephraim	40,500	40,500
Manasseh	32,200	32,200
Benjamin	35,400	35,400
Dan	35,400	35,400
Asher	41,500	41,500
Naphtali	53,400	53,400

By the literal interpretation of God's Word each camp was allocated a specific compass-direction camp site and marching order.

Numbers 2:3 (KJV)3 And on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies:
Numbers 2:10 (KJV)10 On the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben according to their armies:
Numbers 2:18 (KJV)18 On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim according to their armies:
Numbers 2:25 (KJV) 25 The standard of the camp of Dan shall be on the north side by their armies:

The Crucifixion Cross by tribal arrangement and size. WOW!

TANACH

Numbers 22:41 (KJV) 41 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that thence he might see the utmost part of the people..,

WHAT DID BALAAM SEE?

ISRAEL CAMP 4

Numbers 23:11-12 (KJV)11 And Balak said unto Balaam, What hast thou done unto me? I took thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast blessed them altogether. 12 And he answered and said, Must I not take heed to speak that which the LORD hath put in my mouth?

The Cross only brings to humanity God’s Blessings

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA)

John 19:1-20 (KJV) At that time in Roman history, the Cross was the cruelest form of punishment to cause suffering of condemned persons.

Yeshua Jesus was that spotless Torah-obedient Lamb that came and took away the sins of mankind. He was crucified North of the altar where the Temple sacrifices shed their blood. The Temple sacrifices were only a temporary sin covering until Messiah Ben Joseph was to come. The Father gave His only Begotten Son that we as Overcomers might have life everlasting.

Did Satan know the implications of the Cross?

1 Corinthians 2:6-11 (KJV)6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: 7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Topic: Learning to know God’s WORD: Know the Blessings and Curses that you put yourself under by your free-will choices. ….Teach others to do what is right. Through Yeshua Jesus, we might have life more abundant and an everlasting life. …. Just confess His Name and believe on Him.
Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8) and give life that the sin curse of death be blotted out for the believer.
Lessons:
TORAH
Leviticus 26:3-13, ---- Blessings... Leviticus 26:14-39 ----Curses Leviticus 26:40-44 ..A Covenant Restoration “If you…then I will” *By 2 witnesses..Does God mean what He says and say what He mans? "Harken"* unto the WORD of the Lord.
Deuteronomy 28:1-14 ….. Blessings Deuteronomy 28:15-68 ….Curses
HOW BAD DOES THE CURSES GET?
Deu 28:67 KJV “In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.”
Psalm 119 :33-41 (KJV)These are the verses that relate the voice of the Holy Spirit! "Harken" unto the WORD of the Lord.
What is the plumb line?
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJV) 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

TANACH
The Father desires a righteous personal relationship with you.
Ezekiel 18:1-9 (KJV) The Lord is discussing the new Covent, wherein we each have a personal relationship with Him through Yeshua Jesus. Don't blame or allow your genealogy as an excuse in keeping you from Salvation in Christ.
Yeshua Jesus is the WORD = TORAH ..spoken from Mt. Sinai that became man (John 1:1) and came to tabernacle amongst us. John 12:48 KJV He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. Can you see double meaning: WORD=TORAH

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA)
As a believer, you can choose to live under the Blessings or Curses of the WORD.“Be Holy as He Is Holy”… “If you love me keep MY Commandments.”
The Lord commands us to know and do!
1 John 1:5-10 KJV “This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. (6) If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: (7) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (8) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. (9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (10) If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”
– Recognize transgressions, Repent, Renounce, Release, Resist…. Romans 13:8b KJV “…but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.”

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN CHAPTER 12 by Timothy (Raymond Miranda)
GOSPEL of JOHN 12 ....A coded lamed chapter (the 12^thletter of the Hebrew alephbeit). See if you can find these meanings in our teaching today..... teaching and learning, purpose, control, authority, the tongue, knowledgeable.
John 12:1-11 (KJV) verse 3. The anointing oils were very costly- 12oz. (lb.)-300 Denari (pence SG#1220) ~ 25 denari per oz. = $1,000 per oz. or cost about $12,000.00. Symbolically, Mary is worshiping the Lord “and the house was filled…” as the house was filled with the Ruach Ha' Kodesh.
John 12:12-19(KJV) verse 14 "Baruch Haba B’Shem ADONAI"- "Blessed is He that comes in the name of the LORD." As it is written where? remez Mathew 21:1-9 verse 18 “Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe” remez John 4:48

John 12:37-46 (KJV) We see the importance of memorizing scripture by daily reading. John is remezing (chiastic Hebrew structure) these passages Isaiah 53:1(v.38); Isaiah 6:8-10(v.40) “they did not confess him…” Mathew 10:32, Luke 12:8, Romans 1:16 V.42 verse 46 “I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness” ......be children of light, die to your flesh.

Torah Readings: Leviticus 25:1-26:2
Topic: The Jubilee is a time of reaffirming our brotherhood… We are sons of God. We should have a Halachah becoming of Kings & Priests
Romans 8:12-17 (KJV) ¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. ¹⁵ For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: ¹⁷And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Lessons:
TORAH
Leviticus 25:8-18 (KJV)The Hebrew Jubilee year on Yom Kippur is a time of returning properties to its owner, a time to make amends….a time to re-establish relationships and time not to be at aught with your brother/sister.
Christianity is based upon a personal relationship with the Father through the Blood of His Son…
In these times, we need to examine where Christians can be found. By a 1990 population census, there are 1.7 billion of the 6 billion world population(28 %) that reportedly are Christians. Noteworthy: Islamic is 1.9 billion(32%). Today, the Christians in Europe are < 10% of population! United States (population ~300 million) reports in a 2004 census 80% Christian!!!= Greater than 240 million in USA !!!!?????
Wow, where are they?
Christians where are you??? Show yourself...
Why, then are we, as a nation, denying Biblical truths and moral standards?
Do all these 240 million Christians have that personal echad relationship!! Do they walk in Torah awareness? Jesus said "If you love me keep My Commandments." Can we make some sense as to the scope and depth of the existence of a truly steadfast Body of Christ
Closet Christians ......(“cloaked”)…Exist on census form only; may be a part of a family tradition but seldom attend a Church; Won’t profess Jesus Christ publically or study God’s Word... “nominal” Christians ... Social/Political Church goers! ...may be busy with religious church activity having a lukewarm heart for Christ’s; The Bible is their intellectual experience and not of the heart. Overcomer Christians (The remnant)..are a Light and Salt reflection of God’s Word; They are known by their Fruits and you know them by their Halachah (walk)…they Reflect God’s-kind-of-LOVE
We in America have become an apostate group of Christians by our religious indifferences and tolerance. The Lord will spew us out of His mouth (Laodicea Rev.3:15-17).We, who have heard the gospel message and have turned our backs, are worse than Chorazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum.
Matthew 11:21-24 (KJV)21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you. 23 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
What can we do as a nation of believers?
2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
What can You personally do do as a nation of believers?
Examine you self image! Do others perceive you as you perceive yourself. Certainly, outward appearance can be deceptive? Now is the time to self revaluate: Are you a self-serving (Flesh person) or a God–serving individual? Remember all "Christians" look the same on the outside. It is your heart that proclaims who you are in Christ. Listen to your own mouth as it tells the secrets of your heart. Leviticus 25:48-52 (KJV) The Kinsman Redeemer. A redemption price. Who is our Kinsman Redeemer? ..What was the redemption price? How do we look after a "lost" brother?
TANACH

Ruth 4:1-12 (KJV) Boaz looks after Naomi & Ruth. In like manner, the Body of Christ must look after one another. “and the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.” (1 Corinthians 12:21) … “there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.” (1 Corinthians 12:25)…Remember? God’s-kind-of-LOVE !

NEW TESTAMENT (BRIT CHADASHA)
1 John 3:1-6; 14-24 (KJV) John is the apostle who loved Jesus. What is the kind of love amongst the sons/daughters of God?...An agape love???...Love God …Love man. Apostle John, “the mystic,” his last words were …”that we are to love one another and that alone is sufficient.”
Remember our teaching on Love? Agape, Phileo, Eros, Psuchros love
1 John 3:1 (KJV)¹ Behold, what manner of love (agape) the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 1 John 3:14 (KJV) ¹⁴ We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love (agape) the brethren. *He that loveth (agapo) not his brother abideth in death.*
The Father desires that the Body of Christ love one another in agape love which is God's kind-of-Love.
Deterrents to perfecting agape love …Pride, unforgiveness….responding to “laws of the flesh”
Besides unforgiveness what other transgression is our greatest hindrance to God’s perfect Love? It is a sin that involves seduction of others into sin….Gossip….Gossip spreads like fungus and mushrooms.
It is infectious to others, a addicting seducer unto slander/“Character assassination”/back-biting …words kill..!!! Exodus 20:13 (KJV) 13 Thou shalt not kill. Do not pierce another person’s heart.
What are the demonic spirits behind gossip? Let us examine these Spirit World Realities (Works or wiles of the devil)..the rank & file hierarchy of the kingdom of darkness.
Principality is a “lying spirit” from the father of lies. Power is in its witchcraft...a word curse that kills Might is part of the exhibitionism pride in gossip Dominion is promoting deception and lies… seducing others to gossip
Remember that the slanderer, the gossiper, serves sin and is a servant to the man of sin. Romans 6:16 (KJV) ¹⁶ Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Choose between the law of God or the law of the flesh (sin)
Serve God or serve sin??..... Remember Gossip Kills and Mushrooms ..be part of that Overcomer remnant…God is purifying the remnant ..purging out the gossip.. Therefore, Be ye sanctified by the laws of Torah. Leviticus 20:7 (KJV) ⁷ Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
Speak blessings not curses
GOSSIP….KILLS ....Recall that game gossip (“whisper into my ear”). Gossip mushrooms into a feeding frenzy. Don’t let your lips become unclean!
You are held accountable for every idle word. Matthew 12:36 KJV But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Love one another as the Father loves you Achieve spiritual wholeness in God’s-kind-of-LOVE
Let us examine Love in the Hebrew language. Deuteronomy 7:6-8 (KJV) ⁶ For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. ⁷ The LORD did not set his love (חָשַׁק, חָשַׁק[chashaq /khaw·shak])upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: ⁸ But because the LORD loved ( אַהֲבָה,
