-Please Read this FIRST- On this site we prefer to use the actual Name of
our loving Heavenly Father as it was written in the Word, and thus you will
note that we will use the Four Letter “Memorial Name” of - YHVH, which is pronounced as YaHVaH or YaHWaH. In addition we will also use our Heavenly Father’s
attribute/title, which is Elohim rather than
“God,” which sadly is the name of a pagan god. In addition we also
love to use the actual and real Name of our beloved Messiah which is
- Yahushua for this is our
Saviours original Hebrew Name as given to Him at birth in
Take
the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of
Elohim.”
Ephesians 6:11-17
“For YHVH watches over the way of
the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish”
Tehillim - Psalm 1:6
Beloved, I wish to share this
simple, but special exhortation with you. I shared it at a home fellowship on
the Central Queensland Sapphire fields back in 1983. I pray that its simplicity
will bless you, as we come closer into the TRUTH of the Word of Elohim!
“Be diligent to present yourself approved of Elohim, a workman does not have to be
ashamed, who correctly handles the Word of truth. Shun profane and idle (vain) babblings, for they will
increase to more ungodliness. Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among
them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have wandered away from the truth. They
say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith
of some. Nevertheless, Elohim’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with
this inscription: ‘YHVH knows those who are His,’ and,
‘Everyone who confesses the Name of the Messiah must abstain from wickedness.’” 2 Timotheos - 2
On
that wonderful day, when we came to know YaHVaH Elohim, as the true Elohim, the
Creator of heaven and earth and all that is therein, and that day when in the
Name of Messiah Yahushua and we repented of our sins, we also decided to walk
in complete faith, and obey and follow the Word of our beloved Elohim!
As we
follow the ways of Elohim, blessed be He, we received that specific call to be “workman” who need “not to be ashamed,” and
must “handle accurately the Word
of TRUTH!”
What
wondrous words of encouragement the Almighty gives His beloved saints!
Each day, as we read the
Word of the Almighty in our homes and at our Sabbath fellowships, we do this to
further our understanding of His Word and His TRUTH, in order that we might “present ourselves approved of Elohim.”
Even before we entered the “Mikvah” (the waters of immersion) in obedience to the Word, we searched
out THE Word, in order that we could separate the “vain babblings” that originate from the pagan roman
church who have defiled the Word of Elohim! 2 Timotheos - 2
“But shun profane and idle (vain) babblings, for they will
increase to more ungodliness.”
We who have through faith
and lovingly and prayerfully read and studied the Word, we have “separated” ourselves and
have become Elohim’s “workman
and workers,” and good soldiers in Messiah! “Put on the full armour of Elohim,
that you may take your stand against the schemes of those who oppose
Elohim.” Ephesians 6:11.
“Those who do not believe,
the faithful must gently and lovingly instruct, in the hope that Elohim will
grant them atonement leading them to the knowledge of the TRUTH.” 2 Timotheos - 2
Blessed is YaHVaH our
Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name, and His “workman do not have to be ashamed,” and we, the
faithful in Messiah Yahushua, the true and only Messiah, must always “correctly handle the Word of TRUTH.”
Let us briefly look at
Hebrews chapter 13.
“Let your conversation (or character) be without
covetousness; and be content with such things as you have: for he (Yahushua THE Messiah) has said, I
will never leave you, nor forsake you. So that we may boldly say, the Lord is my helper, and I will not
fear what man shall do unto me.” Verses 5-6 … and
“Therefore by him let us
continually offer the sacrifice of praise to Elohim, that is, the fruit of our
lips, giving thanks to His (YHVH’s)
Name.” Verse 15.
We, who have come into
that special relationship with the Elohim of Israel, have come to
“KNOW,” and “BELIEVE” that we must follow the Word of TRUTH and be doers of the Word!
The book of Tehillim -
Psalms makes it quite clear, that even king
“I (YHVH Elohim) will instruct you and teach you in the way you
should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.” Tehillim - Psalm 32:8.
“You guide me with your
counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory.” Tehillim - Psalm
73:24.
“Teach me your way, O YHVH;
lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors.” Tehillim - Psalm
27:11.
Indeed,
“Be
diligent to present yourself approved of Elohim, a workman does not have to be ashamed, who correctly handles
the Word of Truth.”
Beloved, we are exhorted
to be both workman in Yahushua, but also soldiers in His service, for indeed we
are at war with an evil enemy, not with men, but that evil one! Thus we are to
go forth and share the word like a soldier in Yahushua spiritually clothed as
follows!
“Put on the full armour of
Elohim so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For
our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against
the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the
spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armour
of Elohim, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your
ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the
belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness
in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the
gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with
which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the
helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of
Elohim.” Ephesians 6:11-17.
Those in the true faith
are brethren, brothers, and sisters in the TRUTH! For ONLY in the Word of
TRUTH, can we be “brethren
dwelling together in UNITY!” (Tehillim - Psalm 133:1). Even though
“we are many (both Hebrews and
those who were once Gentiles - strangers) we are now ONE in Messiah.” (Romans 12:5), neither
Jew or Greek!
Sadly,
we live in a world that surrounds us with darkness of self and evil. Many deny
there is even an Elohim, a “God,” and then there is a christian
world that has been seduced by those who claim to know a Messiah, but do not “endure sound doctrine.”
(2 Timotheos - 2
“Teach the Word …
convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 2 Timotheos - 2
“And a servant of YHVH must not quarrel but be gentle
to all, able to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in
opposition, if Elohim perhaps will grant them repentance, so that they may know
the truth.” 2 Timotheos - 2
“But you must continue in
the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you
have learned them.” 2 Timotheos - 2
“All Scripture is given by
inspiration of Elohim and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of Elohim may be
complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Timotheos - 2
I pray
this short study has challenged you, to come into the blessed truth of knowing
Yahushua who is THE Messiah, YaHVaH, being the Memorial Name of Elohim and to
uphold His Word, but more so for those who love the Messiah Yahushua to GO forth in “unity,” being “workman” and soldiers of
Elohim, standing “approved”
with YaHVaH at all times, furthering the Word of TRUTH, which is “the fruit of our lips!”
Will you join the call and say “Hinei - Here am I, Send Me!” Yeshayahu – Isaiah 6:8.
“Teach me Your way, O YHVH. I will
walk in Your truth.
UNITE MY HEART TO FEAR YOUR NAME!”

Yahushua said;
“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will
raise him up at the last day. It is written in the Prophets: They will all be
taught by Elohim. Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes
to Me. No one has seen the Father except the One who is from Elohim; only He
has seen the Father. I tell you the truth he who believes has everlasting
life.”
