Daily Word: Did You Hear?

After Yeshua teaches that all will become manifest, He says: "If any man has ears to hear, let him hear." While the Book of Mark may have been written in Greek, Yeshua would have been thinking in Hebrew. The word for "hear" is shamea and it means to listen, to hear and obey, to understand, and to summon. Hebrew connects hearing and action. You have not heard something unless it impacts your actions. The Hebraic approach is not about just having correct thinking, but about correct thinking being manifested in right action. The Hebrew word picture for sha-ma is to see the name. The word for name is shem and it means to destroy chaos. When we put this all together, Yeshua is teaching that if we will hear His words, apply them to our lives, we will destroy chaos in our lives. This is not a magic formula to be used like a charm; instead, it is a guiding principle instructing us how to live.

When we review the last several days study, we see the following: (1) there are four types of ground that will receive the word of God; (2) you can choose the type of ground you want to be through a decision to live a life of repentance and brokenness before Elohim; (3) if you choose to be good ground, you will bring forth good fruit; (4) we are not to put the light of truth we have received under a basket, but instead, we are to allow it to be seen; (5) what we have done with the truth will be revealed at a later time; and (6) if we have heard Yeshua's teaching, it will manifest itself in our actions.

Today, just one question: "Have you heard Yeshua's teachings?" If so, others will see it. They may not like it and probably they will not. But remember, they are choosing what type of ground to be. That is not your responsibility; you are called to be a light to the truth.

Have you heard Y'shua's Teachings? Teachings that were given Him of Our Father. And have you heard the teachings of the Apostles?

“Love Not The World”

”For the WHOLE world(not just a portion) is under the control of the evil one”.......(I John 5:19)

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world will pass away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of The Only True GOD will abide for ever.”(IJohn2:15-17)

“If you were of the world, the world would love it’s own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said unto you, the servant is not greater than his Master. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also.” (John15:19-20)

“Where do wars and fighting among you come from? Do they not come of your lusts that war in your members? You lust, and have not: you kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: you fight and war yet you have not, because you ask not. You ask, and receive not, because you ask amiss, that you may consume it upon your lusts. You adulterers and adulteresses, don’t you know that friendship with the world is to be at enmity with The Only True GOD? Therefore whoever will be a friend of the world is the enemy of The Only True GOD.” (James 4:1-4)

“The world cannot hate you; but the world hates Me, because I testify that the works of this world are evil.” (John 7:7)” and “The Messiah gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of The Only True God, Our Father.”(Gal 1:4)

The Messiah testified: “If the world hates you know that it hated Me before it hated you.”(John 5:18) Truly, Truly, I say unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone: but if it die it brings forth much fruit. He that loves his life in this world shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall have it unto life eternal.” (John 12:24-25)

John testified: “Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hates you.” (I John 3:13) And once again, “Whoever would be a friend of this world is the enemy of GOD”(James4:4)

The “earth and it's life forms” are The Creation of The ONE and Only True GOD, Father of ALL! The “worldly” systems are the creation of, and under the dominion of “the god of this world”, he who is “the father of lies”, he who “has blinded the minds of those who believe not The Messiah”! All the nations of this world are under the dominion of, and serve, the “god of this world” for he provides the fuel that feeds mankind’s “imag”ination.

And sadly, mankind’s “imag”ination is destroying Creation(air, water, land vegetation, creatures) and perverting that which is Spirit(Truth, Light, Life, Faith, Love, Peace,, All that is Truly Good) ;-(


"Come out from among them and be separate"!

Peace, in spite of the dis-ease(no-peace) that is of this world and it's systems of religion, for "the WHOLE world(not just a portion) is under the control of the evil one" indeed and Truth......

Truth IS, a lie is not.......

Abide in The Truth....... francis
