We know that the Messiah Yah'shua came in the Flesh( John 1:14) and that He was conceived by the Spirit of YHWH, and was born as human flesh..
From the time He was born and came in the flesh ( John 1:14) as a human man up untill He was resurrected on the third day according to scriptures as Shaul ( Paul) said in ( 1 Cor.15:3-4), after which He was resurrected and become the firstfruits of them that slept( or resurrected from the dead) with a spiritual glorified body( 1 Cor.15:44), and aftwards those elect that are Messiah's at His coming( 1 Cor.15:23), which will also put on a spiritual body( 1 Cor.15:49-49), and this corruptable flesh body must put on an incorruptable spiritual body, and this mortal human flesh shall put on IMMORTALITY( 1 Cor.15:44, 53-54).
Now, we know that there are scriptures from Messiah Himself and John that say no man has seen the FATHER YHWH at anytime ( John 1:18; John 6:46).
Well, no man has seen the FATHER YHWH at anytime, yet we know that Abraham and Moses spoke to the Messenger of YHWH on many occasions.
For example: In ( Gen.18:2 ) there appeared to Abraham 3 men like persons, and in ( Gen.18:17-22) the one of the 3 men like persons were talking to Abraham as YHWH, and then the men turned their faces and we toward Sodom.
Then you read about Abraham bargaining with YHWH for the souls or the people of Sodom that were righteous.
Then, you will read in (Gen.19:24 ) "" Then YHWH( ie- L-RD on earth= Strongs 3068) rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone or sulfer and fire from YHWH( ie-L-RD in Heaven= Strongs 3068) out of Heaven.
Question: Who are the TWO YHWH'S==Strongs 3068= the TWO L-RDS in ( Gen.19:24) ??
Here you have ONE of the 3 men like Persons on Earth that talked to Abraham ( Gen.18:2-22), then you have ONE of the 3 men like Persons on earth that talked to Abraham, and Abraham seen Him that was called YHWH=( Strongs 3068= L-ORD) that rained sulfer or brimstone and fire from YHWH= (Strongs 3068=L-ORD ) out of HEAVEN down on Sodom and Gomorrah.
Then again, there is Moses who wanted to see the glory of YHWH ( =Strongs 3068) face to face ( Exodus 33:18), however, YHWH said uto Moses You cannot see my face, for no man can see YHWH'S face and live( Exodus 33:20).
So YHWH put Moses in the Clift of the rock with His Hand, and covered Moses with His Hand till YHWH passed by, and YHWH removed His Hand so Moses couldsee YHWH'S HIND PARTS, but His face could not be seen( Exodus 33:22-23).
Again, who did Moses really see ?
Believe it or not, but the Apostle Paul also sheds some more light on this subject, for Paul said the ancient Israelites drank of that spiritual Rock THAT FOLLOWED THEM WAS MESSIAH( See 1 Cor.10:4).
Paul was referring to 2 occasions when water for the children of Israel miraculously came forth from a rock ( See Exodus 17:6; Numbers 20:11).
Shaul ( Paul's ) description of Messiah as the ROCK that went with Israel was linked with his awareness of the many Old Testament Scriptures that describe YHWH as aROCK Deut.32:4,15,18,30,31 ; Psalms 18:2, 31, 46; Psalms 28:1; Psalms 31:3) was the Messiah as the Logos, ie speech, or spokes Person or Word of Yahweh ( John 1:1) , or the Messenger of YHWH, that YHWH the Father( which no man has seen( John 1:18; John 6:46), and that said HIS YHWH'S NAME was also in Him( Exodus 23:20-21) that went before the Israelites in ancient times.
As you can see from all these scriptures that this was no ordinary Angel that went before the Israelites in ancient times, but was thee MESSENGER OF YAHWEH that spoke to all the ancient fathers of Abraham, Issac, and Yacob( Jacob) Israel, and Mosheh ( Moses ).
He is the Father YHWH'S special "" MESSENGER OF HIS( YHWH'S) PRESENCE ( Isa.63:9).
As you can see from all these scriptures that this angel that went before the Israelites in ancient times was no ordinary angel as in as in ( Heb.1:4-5,7; Heb.1:14 ) that was a created spirit in the normal sence.
These verses also disprove the JWs doctrine that Messiah pre-existed as the Arc-angel Michael as they falsely claim.
This was no ordinary angel, however, He was the Logos, ie-The Word or Spokesperson ( John 1:1-3) Messenger of YHWH, that was in the beginning with YHWH , and YHWH created all things by or through Him.
In the beginning was the WORD, ( ie- Logos-ie Speaking One-The Son ), and the WORD was with YHWH( The Father ), and the WORD was YHWH ( The Son). The SAME ( Word -ie The Son ) was in the beginning with YHWH ( The Father). ALL THINGS were made by or through Him ( ie-the Word-ie the Son); and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men........ And the WORD was made flesh and dwelt among us ( and we beheld His Honor or glory, the Honor or glory as THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER ) full of Grace or Favor and Truth.( John 1:1-15 ).
John in ( John 1:14 ) is the clincher proof that the " WORD " in ( John 1:1-3 ) is the ONE who later became Yahweh in the flesh.
John ( The Baptizer ) bare WITNESS of Him, and cried, saying, This was He of whom I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: FOR HE WAS BEFORE ME.( John 1:15 )
Here are more scriptural proof that Messiah was this special Messenger of Yahweh as He is also called The one who came as The Messenger of the ( OLD and NEW)COVENANTS ( See Mal.3:1), and the one sent as the HIGH PRIEST ( Heb.3:1), and Mediator of the NEW COVENANT( Heb.12:24), and that Yah'shua Messiah is the same yesterday, today, and forever( See Mal. 3:6; Heb.13:8).
Also notice that Yah'shua Messiah Himself said that
John the immerser or Baptizer was a PROPHET in scripture( See Mal.3:1) that was to come and prepare the way before Him- the Messiah ( See Matt.11:9-10; Luke 7:26-27 )
Also compare See( Matt.17:10-13) with ( Mal.4:5 ), as the John the immerser or Baptizer came proclaiming the Name of YHWH= YAHWEH ( See Isa.40:3 of the Name of YHWH= Strongs 3068) and compare with ( Matt.3:3; Mark 1:3; Luke 3:4, John 1:23) as also gives the witness of the angel Gabriel ( Luke 1:76).
This is why I quoted Peter before as saying To HIM ( WHO ? MESSIAH -The Messenger YHWH) ALL THE PROPHETS bear or give WITNESS , that everyone exorcising faith in Him gets forgiveness of sins THROUGH HIS NAME.( See Acts 10:43).
Now what Name and Person as Messiah does ALL THE PROPHETS in scriptures bear witness ??
Compare original texts of the name of ( Zech.14:3-4 of YHWH= Strongs 3068 ) with ( Acts 1:10-12), and now who's FEET WILL STAND ON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES ??
Compare ( Zech.14:3-4 ) in original words of Hebrew with ( Acts 1:10-12 ). K.J.V. or any English version.
3.Then shall the"" L-ORD""( Name Strongs number 3050,3068= YAH=YHWH ) go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Verse 3 with the correct NAME ""Then shall YHWH=YAH ( Name= Strongs number 3050, 3068= YAH=YHWH ) go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle
4 And his( YHWH'S ) feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward .....
Now compare, ( Acts 1:10-12) ""10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Yahweh-shua, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
Now, who's feet will stand on the mount of Olives, and will come back to stand on the Mount of Olives from where He went from into Heaven?
That's just one Prophet as Peter said in Acts 10:43, now you find Him and His true Name in ALL THE REST OF THE PROPHETS as Peter said in ( Acts 10:43).
There are many scriptures concerning the real truth of this, as Messiah said "" The Father worked through Him, and He could do nothing of Himself .""
Also, ( Luke 24:27)""27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he( Yahweh'-shua) expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
Also, ""44 And he( Yahweh'-shua) said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me( Yahweh-shua Messiah)
Again, what is the real true NAME ( not title) does ALL THE PROPHETS IN THE SCRIPTURES, Psalms, Moses, and scriptures ( Acts 10:43) give witness to as BOTH Yah'shua Messiah and Peter said?
Does people today think that things are not still being fulfilled in the end times concerning Yah'shua Messiah, as He Himself said ?
The Scriptures say that YHWH The Father sent His only Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through Him- the Son, and He was conceived through the Spirit of YHWH His Father, and a Son will naturally have the same substance and nature of his Father, however from the time of His birth into human flesh See ( John 1:14) up untill the time of His resurrection to a Spiritual body as He is now Spirit, See ( 1 Cor.15:44 ), and is now at the RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER, however, up untill the time of His resurrection, He was Human flesh, and tempted in all points as we are, yet He was without sin/ ie- He never transgressed the Torah or Law See 1 John 3:4).
He was ( John 1: 1-3) a Spirit before with the Father ( John 1:1-3 ), then He became Flesh ( John 1:14) and is now again a Spirit through the resurrection, and He is of the same substance and nature of YHWH His Father, however, the Father is Greater than He- He said so Himself, and the Son is in subjection or subordination to the Father .
Why is it that people never stop to think, that the Father had to have an only Son, inorder to send Him into the natural world, that the world might be saved through YHWH'S Son ?
And I might add another scripture or two or three or four of ( 1 John 2:3-4) as John used the word Commandments= Plural, not only the New Commandment that Messiah added of ( John 13:34-35), as John says that we DO KNOW that we KNOW HIM, if we observe, obey, and do His ( YHWH'S ) Commandments- Plural ), and that those who says I KNOW HIM and does not observe , obey and do HIS( YHWH'S ) Commandments-ie Plural again, is a LIAR and the TRUTH is not in him-or that person.( See 1 John 2:3-4).
Also, John says This is the LOVE OF YAHWEH the Father that we do and obey His Commandments- ie Plural again, not commandment- ie -in singular form of the word either does he ?
Also, is this not the NEW COVENANT--Jer.31:33; Heb.8:10; Heb.10:16) of His laws and Commandments-Plural written and sealed in our hearts or minds ??
Also, John makes it very clear in Revelation 12:17 that it is those that obey and DO the Father's Commandments-ie-Plural again, that satan is angry at and tries to destroy the last days remnant which have the testimony and faith of Yah'shua Messiah, and See Also Revelation 14:12, which are they that obey and do the Commandments--ie-Plural again of the word.
Also, blessed are those that DO HIS COMMANDMENTS- ie -Plural of that word again-that they may have right to the tree of Life.( See Revelation 22:14).
Or, did he say, blessed are they that abolish or do away with the Commandments--ie-Plural of the word Commandments as most all traditional christianity believes and teaches lawlessness today , as of the man of sin / ie lawlessness ( 2 Thess.2:4-12; 1 John 3:4 ) ??
Merely faith in Messiah Yah'shua without obedience to the Father YAH'S=YHWH'S Will ( Matt.7:21) which is His laws and Commandments that is the whole duty of man ( Ecc.12:13) is a dead faith or belief, for even the demons have faith or believe and shutter or tremble, however, they do not, nor will they do and obey His- the Father's will of obedience to His and Messiah's Commandments either.
And ALL THE PROPHETS IN SCRIPTURES DO BEAR WITNESS TO HIM , THAT THROUGH HIS NAME those who have faith and do ( which is obedience to the Father's will -His Torah or Laws) in Him gets remission of sins / ie- justification by faith through obedience to the Father's will which is His law or Torah, and which is the whole duty of mankind ( Ecc.12:13).
And ALL THE PROPHETS do bear witness to Him and His Name, from Moses the Prophet ( Acts 3:22; Acts 7:37) to ( Zech. the PROPHET-14:3-4 ) to ( Mal. the PROPHET- Mal. 3:1; Mal.4:5) to John the immerser or Baptizer who was also a PROPHET in scripture ( See Mal.3:1) that was to come and prepare the way before Him- the Messiah ( See Matt.11:9-10; Luke 7:26-27 )
Also compare See ( Matt.17:10-13) with ( Mal.4:5 ), as the John the immerser or Baptizer came proclaiming the Name of YHWH= YAHWEH ( See Isa.40:3 of the Name of YHWH= Strongs 3068) and compare with ( Matt.3:3; Mark 1:3; Luke 3:4, John 1:23) as also gives the witness of the angel Gabriel ( Luke 1:76).
Also compare See ( Matt.17:10-13 ) with ( Mal.4:5 ), also see ( Micah 5:2 ).
Now what Name and Person does all the prophets in scriptures give witness to Him as His Name ( See Acts 10:43)??
It is YHWH the Son or Messiah that was and is the Messenger of the Covenant that was and is to come, and He is coming again to carry out the second fulfillment except this time it will certainly be a great and dreadful day of YHWH=( Strongs 3068), See ( Mal.4:5). Who can abide His coming ?
Call on the Name of YHWH=Yahweh-shua ( 1 Kings 18:24; Joel 2:32; Acts 2:21; Acts 4:7-12; Rom.10:9-14) , and REPENT ( Acts 2:38 ) of sin / ie transgression of torah or law ( 1 John 3:4 ) !!!
The Comimg King of the Kingdom of YHWH = YAHWEH is at hand , for a voice is crying in the wilderness prepare you the way of --YAH ( weh) SHUA -and make His way straight for He is soon to come !!
May YHWH help you to understand and repent and turn your life arround to Yah'shua Messiah, who is " THAT PROPHET " that if people will not hear or listen to Him, that person will be destroyed from among the people ( See Deut.18:15-19 ; Acts 3:22-24; Acts 7:37 ) .
Will you hear and listen to " THAT PROPHET " YAH'SHUA ( ie-Yahweh's Savior ) mentioned above ?
