influenced by false teachings that keep them imprisoned in a stronghold (mental fortress of false
belief, all of which stems from Replacement Theology, a foundational error seen in Christianity’s
teachings). Many believe all they have to obey are the “Noachide Laws”. Others put their trust in
“sacraments”, believing they must receive “grace” through a false priesthood set up to dispense
favor toward them.
Shaul tells us that a person without belief (living solely in a perspective of the flesh) doesn’t want
anything to do with obeying. Our “mind” indicates our perspective or point-of-view:
“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the matters of the flesh, but
those who live according to the Spirit, the matters of the Spirit. For the mind of the flesh is
death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace. Because the mind of the flesh is hatred
towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself to the Torah of Elohim, neither indeed is it able;
those who are in the (mind of the) flesh are unable to please Elohim. But you are not in the
flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of Elohim dwells in you. And if anyone does not
have the Spirit of Messiah, this one is not His.” Rom 8:5-9
The “mind of the flesh” is hatred toward Yahuah, BECAUSE it does not subject itself to His Torah.
There are plenty of preachers who do not want anyone to submit to the Torah of Yahuah, and they
tell us this quite often. Their “eye” is darkness, searching Scripture for proof that the Torah is not
for them, and yet they believe they are still to be delivered and to inherit eternal life. Seeing only
from the perspective of the flesh (as opposed to the Spirit), they walk in darkness without Torah.
Mat 5:16-19: “Let your light so shine before men, so that they see your good works and
praise your Father who is in the heavens. Do not think that I came to destroy the Torah or
the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to complete.
For truly, I say to you, till the Heaven and the Earth pass away, one jot (YOD) or one tittle shall
by no means pass from the Torah till all be done. Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of
these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the Heavens; but
whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.”
THE TORAH OBJECTIVE
The objective of Torah is to teach us LOVE for Yahuah, and LOVE for our neighbor. Torah is a
relationship. Those of us who are teaching others to obey Torah are doing it out of love. If people
ignore Torah, they reject what Yahusha would bring to them and write upon their hearts. Allowing
Him to write the love for Torah upon our hearts is what the “Renewed Covenant” is. It is receiving a
love for the Truth, and we are then circumcised in our hearts and want to obey. We are not only
free from the penalty of our former sin, but free of it’s power over us; our inner nature is changed by
the indwelling of Yahusha, and His seed (Torah) grows within us. On the day of our redemption, we
will be grateful that Yahusha gave us His Spirit so we could see His point of view, and we could
walk before Him daily showing our love for Him through our obedience.
Rom 6:16: “Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves servants for obedience,
you are servants of the one whom you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to
righteousness?” There is no middle-ground; either we are obedient, or we fail as our first parents
did in Gan Eden. The final outcome for those who reject Torah will be catastrophic!
Rom 2:12,13: “For as many as sinned without Torah shall also perish without Torah, and as
many as sinned in the Torah shall be judged by the Torah. For not the hearers of the Torah
are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the law shall be declared right.” (See
also Mt. 7:21-27, James 2:14-24). Even the demons believe; but they won’t OBEY.
On that note, consider this multiple choice snap-quiz:
At Rev 12:17, the Dragon is enraged at those who hold to the Testimony of Yahusha, and:
1. Observe Valentine’s Day 2. Obey Yahuah’s Commandments 3. Obey 9 Commandments
4. Work on Sunday 5. Trust in the sacraments 6. Baptize babies 7. Erect Christmas trees

wake up. The question above might sober up a few to realize that something’s wrong, that people
could be obeying the wrong leadership. Being very religious only impresses men, not Yahuah.
Meditating day and night upon the Torah, we possess a treasure greater than gold. Ex. 20 and Dt.
5 both declare the Covenant for us, and when we carefully read the whole context of Dt. Chapters 4,
5, & 6, we find the Ten Commandments given “again” for the scattered tribes of Israel in the last
days. We are to teach them to our children and grandchildren. Notice how He knew we would turn
aside, be scattered, then remember the Words of the Covenant in our captivity in the last days:
Deu 4:27-31: “And Yahuah shall scatter you among the peoples, and you shall be left few in
number among the Gentiles where Yahuah drives you. And there you shall serve mighty
ones, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor
smell. But from there you shall seek Yahuah your Elohim, and shall find, when you search
for Him with all your heart and with all your being.
In your DISTRESS *, when all these Words shall come upon you in the latter (LAST) days, then
you shall return to Yahuah your Elohim and shall obey His voice. For Yahuah your Elohim is
a compassionate El, He does not forsake you, nor destroy you, nor forget the Covenant of
your fathers which He swore to them.” * (REFERENCE TO THE GREAT TRIBULATION IN THE LAST DAYS)
Deu 5:29 “‘Oh, that they* had such a heart in them, to fear Me and to guard all My commands
always, so that it might be well with them and with their children forever!’” * (ISRAEL)
THE MESSAGE OF ELIYAH: REMEMBER TORAH
Mal 4:4,5: “Remember the Torah of Mosheh, My servant, which I commanded him in Horeb for
all Yisra’el – laws and right-rulings. See, I am sending you EliYah the prophet before the
coming of the great and awesome day of Yahuah.”
Let’s consider some specifics. The fact is, the Name of Yahuah is not well-known because the
3rd Commandment has been distorted. It declares we are not to “cast” His Name to ruin (Hebrew,
“shoah”, meaning destruction). If we lay-waste to His Name, we aren’t using it. We have been
programmed to replace it with other words, like LORD, HaShem, Adonai, and so on. This is the
ultimate blasphemy; to never call upon the one true Name of the Creator, we transgress the Torah.
His Name is revealed in the Hebrew text at least 6,823 times in the four letters, YOD-HAY-UAU-
HAY. There is no letter “J”, nor a letter “W” in Hebrew. Consequently, we have not been able to
keep the Messiah’s one true Name intact either: YAHUSHA. The Name of the Creator, YAHUAH,
is contained within the Name YAHUSHA, which means “Yah is our Deliverer” (YOD-HAY-UAU-
SHIN-AYIN). Exodus 23:13 prohibits us from taking the names of Pagan deities on our lips. With
that in mind, the origin of the term GOD will exempt it from our use.
The 1945 Encyclopedia Americana has this to say under to topic "GOD":
"GOD (god) Common Teutonic word for personal object of religious worship, formerly applicable to
super-human beings of heathen myth; on conversion of Teutonic races to Christianity, term was
applied to Supreme Being."
The 4th Commandment is likewise ignored, and yet it is the SIGN of the Eternal Covenant (see Ez.
