“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law [Torah]?” -Matthew 22:36
“Thou shalt love the Lord [YAWH] thy God [Elohim] with ALL thy heart, and with ALL they soul, and with ALL thy mind.” How? We have learned that faith is not blind; and indeed, it is the evidence of the things hope for.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
And the second is like it (equal): ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ How?
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor’s.
Can lawlessness perceive law not until it is broken these commandments, instructions or precepts of Yahweh cannot be understood by those with an unbroken heart unless you are born again from above, for the Prophets and the witnesses which includes Moses writes.
I will give THEM a heart (circumcised heart) to know Me, that I am the LORD. They will be My people, and I will be their God, for they will return to Me with ALL their heart. -Jeremiah 24:7
Loving yourself is an ability to decern between good and evil while forsaking your desire or want to turn to the left or right to become a follower of the Adversary, an accuser of the body of Yahshua. Anyone can serve man which is seen but it takes faith- faith in the seen (personal experiences) and unseen promises that we will inherit eternal life on that great day according to the word of Yahweh.
“But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” -Hebrew 5:14
“Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.” -Proverbs 4:27
Now, because of centuries of false teachings has caused a flood of spiritual blindness or deception has created a snare from the adversary that continues to entrap many who walk contrary to Yahweh’s word this could be you, family, friend, are a neighbor. Nevertheless, Christ’s word shares with us our holy duty towards those who loves the followership, smell, and taste of spiritual death. “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;”… -Matthew 5:44
Can you not see the sum of the Father’s love. The will of Yahweh was found with fault by those who transgressed in it. If, Yahweh commands, instruction and precepts were impure in the 1st place there would not have been a need for a second coming to prove His will. But since His will is pure from the beginning to the end it is written, “For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah…” “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: Hebrew 8:8;10 The love to do the Father’s will is the sum of God’s will.
It is written, ‘Forgive them for they know not what they do‘, for if they knew THYSELF beyond the wants of the flesh, they would surlily flee the callousness of a seared heart and desire first a circumcised one. A Believer with a born-again heart understand God is love it is the sum of all His ways, but the flesh desires a lust laden world, and ALL her (Babylon) ways are filled with self-righteousness. What I believe, what I think, what I feel or what others say has played a role in why 131 million people 66% of Adult Americans are placed on some type of prescribed medicines.
Take Yahshua’s at His word where His ‘yoke is easier, His burden is light’ Many of you have placed any and everything before His word hoping to get a quick fix, but you cannot enter into the kingdom of God through any other door accept Yeshua HaMashiach whom we call Jesus Christ our Messiah. Many will take heaven by force but to no prevail Christ warns us to know Him so you can decern the works of the Father which is not the works of ‘Lawlessness.’ “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.” Matthew 11:12 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ -Matthew 7:22-23 In other words a temporary fix or miracle would not guarantee you eternal life.
RE-pent! and BE born again.
