Bible Basics: Understanding Your Path

John 14:6 (AMP)

⁶ Jesus said to him, “^[a]I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the[real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.

Good Morning And Shalom:

I wanted to take a moment to breakdown a bible basic and understanding in a very simple form.  Something that we as a people try to make so difficult and complicated but Jesus wanted us to know it is simple. However, This also is with a warning.

As a Jewish Believer in This Christ (Messiah) Jesus ( Yeshua) who spoke these words of wisdom , knowledge and understanding:  He was saying that the path he was showing was plain and simple and the solid foundation to all truth. That there was no lie or fault in it. One of the reasons I know that within these words is solid foundation and truth is because of my upbringing as a jewish kid in Miami. 

 Every-week we went to Temple and did everything we were told to do but never taught this relationship with GOD that mattered. It was much of the opposite. We were told to do this or that because it was who we are but never taught the gravity of the words and these things  in the TORAH ( The Book of instruction) . 

As I started to learn of things of this life and what was and was not truth I started to understand that instruction was given however an example needed to  be followed.  Yeshua sets that example. In all His preaching and teaching, There is no known refutable evidence from anyone to say He had blame or did not reflect a true Heart of the Father (ABBA). 

The simplicity of all that is being taught in these words above is this: you choose a path, the path of your choosing will either bring you life or death (Eternal). This is an solid truth and rock because if you choose light and to follow the path to the father (ABBA) then you will see a change that will show a disciplined and obedient life abstaining from things cause failure, hurt, strife, bitterness and sin. 

If you choose destruction then there will be no light or life in any of these choices it will be out of pure selfish desire and will fulfill everything you wanted and will lack everything of the Father. 

Yeshua's walk was selfless and blameless . His examples have set courses and understanding that actually are far beyond the comprehension of the Human mind. That is why he stated the words above. 

One must understand the following though as a word of encouragement yet warning. You cannot ride the line. You cannot have it one way and the other . You must make a choice. You cannot compromise your faith walk. You cannot choose sin in some things and try to justify it and then choose life at the same time. It doesn't work that way. There is a difference between mistakes, repenting and reaping. What you have sown and saying your God fearing but continue in some sin that the Bible calls sin ( ex: lying, stealing, murder, strife, discord, immorality, adultery, Homosexuality, drukeness and these like things....Galatians chapter 5). This is Hypocrisy. This is something the bible warns against strongly. Revelation chapter 3 describes it being luke warm and being vomitted from the mouth of God. In another words being rejected by the Father (abba).

Lastly , as a believer in Christ, you also must be sober minded and understand the time frame we live in. They are dangerous times. We are seeing an out pouring of hatred like no other times. Its important to also not only understand these things that we are seeing but not ignore them either. There are lots of people on the internet showing and stating many different things about the Bible . They are breaking down scriptures verse by verse. These are great tools in understanding  the times because we are told to keep watch. The warning for this is to not to keep watch for just the knowledge of these things to come but to grow closer to God our father through his atonement of Sin through His Son Yeshua.

What I see is this , that there are many people calling themselves believers in Christ and keeping watch but not pressing in being about our father's business. They believe in a rapture and being caught up with the Lord in the air, but they have come off the wall as watcher and warning people. Warning people has many folds and understanding but the greatest is the love of the Father has for each one and is pressing in on the work of the father and bringing in souls to the kingdom of heaven. Pressing in about our fathers business at greater levels. Standing firm on our belief system and not compromising with the things of this world . Pressing in that we are seeing with greater force the deception of what is believed to be normal and acceptable which is not of God.

You can understand all those things the bible states and not have a true heart for God. You can seeming look like you do but not be obedient to His word and actually not be ready for Wedding super of the lamb. Like the foolish 5 virgins who were left out of the feast and the door was shut ; so could you be left out and behind.  

There is no other greater time then this to be wise and have oil in your lamps. Always examine and guarding your heart and growing in the Lord. Repenting and asking the lord for a continual hunger and thirst for the things that righteous and pleasing and pure unto Him.

Amen
