PRE-AMBLE!

The Yeshua I worship and share daily through my postings and videos is the living Messiah who Yahewa  sent to fulfill this truth, that even before creation occurred this fact was formulated with God, we were ALL chosen in the counsel of God from all eternity, I am about to reveal this was the purpose of Yeshua’s birth for the fulfillment of the counsel of God and Yahewa’s call to all mankind to come out of their slumber and delusions and return to him!

SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION!

Ephesians 1:10
[10]That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

OBSERVATION!

Set not your affections on things on the earth, but on those things which are above.

Jeremiah 31:31-32
[31]Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
[32]Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:

Predestination has respect to the blessings they are designed for particularly the adoption of children, it being the purpose of God that in due time we should become his adopted children, and so have a right to all the privileges and to the inheritance of children.

We have here the date of this act of love: it was before the foundation of the world not only before God’s people had a being, but before the world had a beginning for they were chosen in the counsel of God from all eternity.

It magnifies these blessings to a high degree that they are the products of eternal counsel. The alms which you give to beggars at your doors proceed from a sudden resolve but the provision which a parent makes for his children is the result of many thoughts, and is put into his last will and testament with a great deal of solemnity.

And, as this magnifies divine love, so it secures the blessings to God’s elect for the purpose of God according to election shall stand.

He acts in pursuance of his eternal purpose in bestowing spiritual blessings upon his people.

He hath blessed us–according as he hath chosen us in him, in Christ the great head of the election, who is emphatically called God’s elect, his chosen and in the chosen Redeemer an eye of favour was cast upon them.

Observe here one great end and design of this choice: chosen–that we should be holy not because he foresaw they would be holy, but because he determined to make them so.

All who are chosen to happiness as the end are chosen to holiness as the means. Their sanctification, as well as their salvation, is the result of the counsels of divine love–And without blame before him–that their holiness might not be merely external and in outward appearance, so as to prevent blame from men, but internal and real, and what God himself, who looketh at the heart, will account such, such holiness as proceeds from love to God and to our fellow-creatures, this charity being the principle of all true holiness.

OBSERVATION!

It is a great aggravation of the treacherous departures from God that he has been a husband to us, a loving, tender, careful husband, faithful to us, and yet we are false to him. (Justifying the blending of worldy wisdom with spiritual wisdom.  Exodus 32:9-10 KJV
And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people: [10] Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.).

YESHUA’S OFFERINGS WITHIN THE COVENANT!

What are the particular articles of his covenant. They all contain spiritual blessings not, “I will give them the land of Canaan and a numerous issue,” but, “I will give them pardon, and peace, and grace, good heads and good hearts”

He promises that he will incline them to their duty. I will put my law in their inward part and write it in their hearts, not, I will give them a new law, for Christ came not to destroy the law, but to fulfil it but the law shall be written in their hearts by the finger of the Spirit as formerly it was written in the tablets of stone.

OBSERVATION!

God writes his law in the hearts of all who believe and trust, makes it ready and familiar to them, at hand when they have occasion to use it, as that which is written in the heart, Proverbs 3:3
[3]Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:.

Though Christ endures long, he will not always endure the contradiction of sinners against himself. He had said (Matthew 15:14, “Let them alone,” and he did so).

He makes them in care to observe it, for that which we are solicitous about is said to lie near our hearts (discerning the HolySpirits teachings). He works in them a disposition to obedience, a conformity of thought and affection to the rules of the divine law, as that of the copy to the original. (Romans 12:2
[2]And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.)

This is here promised, and ought to be prayed for, that our duty may be done conscientiously and with delight.

That he will take them into relation to himself: I will be their God, a God all-sufficient to them, and they shall be my people, a loyal obedient people to me.

God’s being to us a God is the summary of all happiness heaven itself is no more, Hebrews 11:16; Revelation 21:3.

Our being to him a people may be taken either as the condition on our part (those and those only shall have God to be to them a God that are truly willing to engage themselves to be to him a people) or as a further branch of the promise that God will by his grace make us his people, a willing people, in the day of his power and, whoever are his people, it is his grace that makes them so.

COMMENTARY!

That there shall be an abundance of the knowledge of God among all sorts of people, and this will have an influence upon all good: for those that rightly know God’s name will seek him, and serve him, and put their trust in him (Jeremiah 31:34): All shall know me all shall be welcome to the knowledge of God and shall have the means of that knowledge his ways shall be known upon earth, whereas, for many ages, in Judah only was God known.

Many more shall know God than did in the Old Testament times, which among the Gentiles were times of ignorance, the true God being to them an unknown God.

CLOSING OBSERVATION!

There is a caution that needs to be heeded! Justly is the light taken from those that either play by it or rebel against it.

When Christ and his disciples could not be quiet among them, he left them and so left an example to his own rule (Matthew 10:14), Shake off the dust of your feet.

Note, Wilful prejudices against the gospel and cavils at it often provoke Christ to withdraw and to remove the candlestick out of its place. Acts 13:46,51.

Here, we must suggest that the justifications and rationalization of the blending of worldly wisdom and spiritual wisdom may be seen as irritating acts against Yahewa and his son Yeshua and like those described in Romans 1:28
[28]And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
