TRUMPETER'S CALL

Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. [43] But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Matthew 24:42-43 

PRE-AMBLE by Robert

I am writing this article as a follower of Yeshua, not after any literary fashion but from the heart after meditation and fervent prayer, my answer I am about to put on paper is not in the spirit of judgment. The Lord has shown me the following question to share with all who would read hear and discern whether non-believer or follower of Yeshua, Jew or proclaimed Christian WHY DO YOU FOLLOW GOD, YESHUA? This sounding of the Trumpet is a spiritual audit for all and may the Lord bring discernment, understanding, and acceptance through it.

Yeshua has laid before me a question which appears as pure as possible yet when I am about to state my answer it becomes the most in-depth question I have ever faced. Initially, when I approach this issue, it appears to be one about my faith and obtaining salvation. I recognize and accept salvation comes to me through grace, hope, faith and my acceptance of Yeshua as my saviour and the only way to be in the presence of God. I recognize there are multitudes of gifts, crowns and all will be before the throne of God facing the final judgment. 

What I’m about to express is part of my answer of why I follow Yeshua and His teachings. When I study the scriptures, I see that God cannot nor will He have enmity in His presence.  So what I have surmised from the Scriptures is all will be judged. (Heb 10:12 – 23). 

Why is this important for all to know these days? What does this have to do with those who have accepted Yeshua and in hope and faith received Salvation? Why, would the Lord pose this question to all? Why would He have His Watchmen Sound their Trumpets, what is there to be warned about? 

OPENING PRAYER by Robert

Heavenly Father, thank you for searching the depth of our faith. I petition you Lord for wisdom to be upon those reading this article, lift them and deepen their discernment and understanding. Bring unto them a spirit of calm so any decision they make in respect to their spiritual walk and relationship with you Lord would be an informed one,  void of emotions and worldly desires. I ask Father for you to remove any cords and bindings causing confusion within their minds. So, they might receive all and any information the Holy Spirit, will reveal to be used as the foundation of their future spiritual decisions,  as they continue their journey. I pray this in your name in the name of Yeshua AMEN and AMEN.“ 

OPENING STATEMENT by Robert

When I first looked at this question, I quickly understood there was not going to be a right or wrong answer. And there would be millions of answers each being correct, as it would represent the personal feelings of each individual towards his walk with Yeshua. It became apparent what our Father was asking was personal yet He wanted it shared as a warning.

After taking the time to thoroughly look at this question, from a worldly perspective, clearly, it was a call to not become complacent in our walks, as followers and believers. Knowing non-believer’s would not understand this calling nor receive it unless those believers who heard the Trumpet would share and interpret it.   

The question takes on the point of view of how deep Faith is and how it becomes a part of our walk and believe it or not non-believers have a form of faith they hold onto it’s just channelled towards another way of understanding or accepting what they think and believe how God fits in their lives.

While ministering to a follower of our Lord who was [ I emphasize] suffering from a serious debilitating malady. The Lord revealed, why we do not always receive healings in the flesh. I have in earlier articles stated nothing happens in the flesh that it has not already occurred in the Spirit.

Thus if we desire through prayer for the Lord to heal us in the flesh and we pray for it through the flesh it will not happen, (James 4:3) Ye ask, and receive not because ye ask amiss that ye may consume it upon your lusts.  Being in the flesh, we have the following with us at all times Pride, Vanity, Luxury, and Sensuality.

These are the things being in the flesh will negate prayer, only, because we do not recognize them as part of our lives or simply believe they are a part of our personality. So realizing that even with Salvation for the Lord to operate fully in my life I need to develop and deepen my Faith. 

Knowing my walk now must be in the spirit and not after the flesh, which is Pride, Vanity, Luxury, and Sensuality. These would be what I would be serving if Yeshua healed me through the flesh. 

Then my awareness of having Yeshua in my life through hope and exercising Faith and accepting Yeshua as my Saviour allowed me to obtain Salvation, but nothing further at that time.

What the Lord revealed when asking “WHY DO YOU FOLLOW  GOD, and HIS SON YESHUA,” was, I should be observing the depth of my faith and what am I doing to deepen it or more so strengthen it, as well learning how to use it without a doubt.

Yeshua desires his followers to audit how many dependencies are they placing on Pride, Vanity, Luxury, and Sensuality as we further our walk without recognizing, sensing or realizing these are what we are relying and depending on.

CLOSING PRAYER by Robert 

Father in heaven, in placing this petition before your throne, through the new heart you have given us. We are grieved and saddened, many are not hearing your words. We are brought to tears, Lord, seeing so many will face you in Eternity and will suffer a second death. We are now asking Father for more profound knowledge, a greater desire to continue sharing and warning. “Oh,” Lord, fill us with more of your compassion, determination, and understanding of your Grace. We plead Lord for your Grace and Patience to continue, while you have the Holy Spirit instructing us on how to use your parables and sayings to bring forward your love and forgiveness. In all of this Lord, we ask that in our desire to serve, it be only in your will, Father. This we pray in your name Yeshua, Amen, and Amen.

CLOSING STATEMENT by Robert

 The following is my answer to the question and I believe they are the most accurate assessment I can share, “why”, I follow Yeshua. As Bunnie Marie (my wife of 28 years) and I go through the scriptures sharing our findings, discernments, and interpretations. We recognize Faith has become the most important item in our walk and quest to deepen and draw closer to “Yeshua.”

So to understand how deep our walk was becoming, I needed to seriously look at whether I had just taken faith for granted. Because we had hope and faith and received Salvation, and the Lord changing our walk and deepening our seeking after Yeshua, so were we thinking our faith was automatically going to deepen. 

What I quickly realized was the desire I had developed in the early stages of my walk to draw closer to Yeshua, however,  I hadn’t actually taken the time to develop a way of knowing how deep my faith was while drawing closer. Remember I was assuming it would automatically deepen and grow. As I looked at answering this question I realized there was still a dependency on the faith which drew me into following Yeshua, which is not wrong just not deep enough. 

But there was no depth to it as it stood it was strong and permanently in place, however, if I was called to actually rely on my faith as Peter did when he stepped from the boat to walk on water when Yeshua called him. Would I even be able to do as Peter did until he doubted and sank? You see Peter’s faith when he stepped out of the boat was deep and without doubt initially, then he realized what he was doing and sunk. Even Peter didn’t know how deep his faith had become while following and learning from Yeshua and what profound effect it had on him and his faith.

Yeshua, by calling on Peter to walk over to him on the water was demonstrating how powerful, personal faith, can be without a doubt, once we learn to exercise and accept it as such. 

When we take for granted, where our walk is, and where we believe it to be headed, unless we stop and answer “WHY DO YOU FOLLOW GOD, and YESHUA” we may never see realize or understand the true depth of and about our faith and its effect on our walk.

I ponder how Yeshua endured what he did while walking this earth and did so as an example of what it is going to take for us to truly follow in His footsteps. Our times are perilous and becoming even more so with the political and religious carrying on occurring. None of us should take for granted what may transpire in the very near future and begin measuring whether you have the depth of faith to step out onto the water as Peter did and walk towards our Father or heed His call to us for whatever matter. 

 We can Verbalize our faith and believe in our minds there is no doubt or fear but until we truly are tested, and measured, will we know. What I am trying to understand, is how our Lord while walking through the crowds knowing there were some who hated him and what he stood for. I see Him in my mind, Yeshua, walking peacefully exercising His faith, knowing His Father was with Him, protecting Him guiding Him.

It is here, I recognize how to deepen my faith, learn when and why to use it, without a doubt, knowing that in all things I do are in the Spirit, through Yeshua. As Yeshua knew His Father, was working through His flesh, so will He do through our flesh!

Remember I stated nothing happens in the flesh that has not already occurred in the Spirit. This principle applies to all things Spiritually in our lives. So like Peter we need to step out onto the water in faith without a doubt and begin walking without a doubt in our Faith, knowing, Yeshua is with us in all things. 

Why is the Lord asking us to do an audit on our Faith drawing us into searching our walks? Teaching us how to deepen our understanding of how to use that faith no matter how deep our walk is or will become. Why is He including non-believers in this sounding of the TRUMPETERS horn, what is it He is preparing all for? 

“ALL HEAR THE SOUNDING OF THE TRUMPET!”

 The times are perilous, and the clouds of deception have become darker deeper and carrying greater craftiness, cunningness, deceitfulness, fakery and wiliness. They are going to trap and ensnare, those who are not prepared to battle, within the spirit, who do not or have not prepared themselves to walk in Faith without a doubt that Yeshua is working through their flesh to guide and protect. There will be many who will begin a good fight but like Peter when doubt enters will succumb to the evil presented to them. Know ye this all are going to be tested in their faith no matter what form believer or non-believer. 

HERE ENDS THE TRUMPET’S SOUNDING!

I pray all will hear prepare and share, as there is a great “Spiritual Battle” developing to occur in the very near future. This evil is not taking prisoners and is the foulest our time has ever seen showing no mercy. 

HEAVENLY FATHER I come before you as a humble servant and petition you Father to rain discernment unto all in this world that they would know and understand what is about to rain down on them Spiritually. Show them Father as in the days of Noah where they were dancing and partying what is about to befall them. I pray this in your name Lord in the name of Yeshua. Amen and Amen.

For what it is worth, I am communicating this preparatory information as a call to arms for those in the “Advanced Guard.”   Please note, most followers will not recognize this danger, until it is possibly too late. Brothers and Sisters in Yeshua this is our calling as the “Advance Guard” to bring this call show our brothers and sisters not take this lightly, heed it do their audit, to know the depth of their faith, as it is going to be spiritually tested, the evil is going to manifest itself physically against you and them. Whether they believe it or not and I pray you and they will hear acknowledge and move forward in prayer, discernment and understanding as the guard, not the 500.

Remember, these messages are given by a humble servant obedient unto our Lord Yeshua as a “Watchman.” This I pray for all. ”Our Heavenly Father brings us to the river which bringeth forth fruit so we may partake of its sustenance and be filled spiritually with nurturing wisdom, and humble dedication in service to Yeshua.“ “Blessings to All.”  As you go forward in peace, knowledge, and strength. In the name of Yeshua, we pray Amen and Amen.

Proverbs 11:27-28
He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour: but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.
He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.

PRE-AMBLE by Robert
Good men are generally well-beloved by their neighbours, but nobody cares for wicked people. It is true there are some few that are enemies to the righteous, that is prejudiced against God and godliness, and are therefore vexed to see good men in power and prosperity but all indifferent persons, even those that have no great stock of religion themselves, have a good word for a good man.

OPENING STATEMENT by Robert

But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. In the following report, we should find how the power of God is at work.

I don’t know if you agree, but something invisible came and put everything in its place.
Suddenly gas prices went down, pollution went down, people started to have more time – so much time that they do not know what to do with it – parents are spending time with their kids as a family, work is no longer a priority, or travelling or social life either.
Suddenly we silently see within ourselves and understand the value of the words “solidarity”, “love”, “strength”, “empathy” and “faith”.
In an instant, we realized that we are all in the same boat; rich and poor. That the supermarket shelves are empty and the hospitals are full.
New cars and old cars also stand in the garages, simply because nobody can get out. Empty streets, less pollution, clean air, the land also breathes.
The human returns to his origins, realizing that with or without money, the important thing is to survive.
Today, health is the main thing, even in spite of wanting to have or possessing. It took 6 days for the universe to establish the social equality that was said to be impossible.
Fear invaded everyone. At least this happened to realize the vulnerability of the human being. Nature is forcing us to clean up the mess we made ourselves.

We are not gods, we are not kings, we do not have the power of controlling everything.
We are part of a whole, fragile, brittle and vulnerable something. Part of a whole something that we wanted to dominate & today is telling us: stop, breathe, respect. Go back to the basics, to the essentials, that the peace of your soul guide you towards what you are: a CREATION.
I copied this from someone else’s wall because indeed this is the reflection that we must have TODAY!!!

Today’s detractors state God does not attend to His children as He did with Elijah in 1 Kings 18:37-39 demonstrating His power through the sacrifice. I state we have been shown how God has presently demonstrated His power using an invisible tool to bring the world to a halt. Elijah’s cry to God applies to our condition today: “Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that these people may know that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. [38] Then the fire of the Lord fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. [39] And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The Lord, he is the God; the Lord, he is the God.” 

Please remember these articles are the work of a humble servant of Yeshua doing His bidding as a Watchmen sounding the Trumpet to warn of impending danger within the Assembly. May our Father abundantly bless each one of you with wisdom and discernment to go forward as His “Modern Day Disciples.”

Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee, Trust ye in the Lord forever: for in the Lord Yeshua is everlasting strength. (Isaiah 26:3-4)

Hear me O Lord, hear me, that these people may know thou art the Lord God, and thou hast turned their heart back again. Then the fire of the Lord fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water which was in the trench. And when the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, The Lord, he is the God, the Lord, he is the God. (1King 18:37 – 39.)

PRE-AMBLE by Robert 

The Lord through the Holy Spirit brought me to The Book 1Kings in the Old Testament to reveal the similarities of how far from God the modern churches worshipping their worldly god of love, have fallen and in similar actions how far from God the Israelites under King Ahab had fallen away from God.

Like Elijah, we as “Modern Day Disciples” are being lead to revealing who Yeshua is and why God placed Him among us. “Yes,”  we recognize the original saying, and it is true Yeshua came to save our, souls, and “Yeshua” did. However, do we fully comprehend and understand what really took place that, day? Remember we have been shown Adam and Eves’s sins separated our spirit from God. We were given a fleshly body which perishes, however, as well an opportunity in this lifetime to spiritually reconnect with God. In the July article “ADOPTION” published July 10, 2018, we were shown the true meaning of that adoption.

Now when we look at the event, Elijah put on display it is easy to see what his final goal was, Elijah’s sacrifice displayed God’s existence and glorious power (1King 18:38). After this event the people declared “The LORD, he is the God; The LORD, he is the God. (1Kings 18:39.) 

To premise this event we see Elijah saying onto the prophets of Baal. Choose you one Bulloch for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many, and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. Those who followed Baal as prophets took the Bullock who was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.  

Midday passed Elijah mocked them and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awakened. 

We no longer perform animal sacrifices to God, and I am going to bring forward what is being revealed through the Holy Spirit, the sacrifices we perform to demonstrate “Yeshua is the Son of God,” and His sacrifice is proof God is the Father of all mankind. It becomes apparent an understanding of our acceptance of Yeshua is not in question. But what it truly means on a spiritual level and what sacrifices we demonstrate so others will see and recognize and accept Him as the Son of God.

OPENING PRAYER by Robert

Father in heaven, we are calling out Lord to the multitudes to know your love, compassion, and forgiveness. We ask Father for your wisdom and discernment to demonstrate your greatness that they would know you as God. Fill us with the strength to endure all the attacks of the enemy. Polish us Lord that we might shine brightly before their eyes as we demonstrate your love for us so the multitudes would know it is you who is lifting us above the evil in this world. It is you who has freed us from the snares and trappings of Satan. Demonstrate through us Lord your greatness that they would see your sacrifice and know you are the Son of God. This we pray in your name Yeshua Amen and Amen.  

OPENING STATEMENT by Robert          

I want to delve into this article as quickly as possible as there is a considerable amount of information to absorb and discern. From (1Kings) the Holy Spirit lead me to (Romans 12), where we find the Apostle Paul in his writings explaining the prime fundamental doctrines of being a follower and believer in Yeshua the Son of God.

“We mistake our belief in Yeshua if we look upon it only as a system of notions and a guide to speculation. It is a reasonable belief, that tends to the right ordering of conversation. It is designed not only to inform our judgments but to reform our hearts and lives. From the method of the apostle’s writing in this, as in some other of the epistles, the stewards of the mysteries of God may take direction how to divide the word of truth. Not to press duty abstracted from privilege, nor privilege abstracted from duty but let both go together, with a complicated design, they will greatly promote and befriend each other,”

Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) relates the following, “The foundation of believers assembling must be laid in spiritual knowledge and faith. We must first understand how we receive Yeshua our Lord, and then we shall know the better how to walk in him. The exhortations are short and pithy, briefly summing up what is good, and what the Lord our God in Yeshua requires of us. It is an abridgment of the Assemblies directory, an excellent collection of rules for the right ordering of the conversation, as becomes the gospel. It is joined to the preceding discourse by the word “therefore.” It is the practical application of doctrinal truths that is the life of preaching. Therefore what God hath joined together let no man put asunder. Paul had been discoursing at large of the justification by faith, and of the riches of free grace, and the pledges and assurances we have. The particular exhortations of this chapter are reducible to the three principal heads of Assembly duty: our duty to God, to ourselves, and to our brother. The grace of God teaches us in general, to live “godly, soberly, and righteously” and to deny all that which is contrary hereunto. 

We will grow to understand what godliness, sobriety, and righteousness, are though somewhat intermixed. Paul entreated the Romans, like his brethren in Yeshua, by the mercies of God, to present their bodies as a living sacrifice to Him. This is a powerful appeal. We receive from the Lord every day the fruits of his mercy. Let us render ourselves; all we are, all we have, all we can do: and after all, what return is it for such very rich receiving? It is acceptable to God: a reasonable service, which we are able and ready to give a reason for, and which we understand. Conversion and sanctification are the renewings of the mind; a change, not of the substance, but of the qualities of the soul. The progress of sanctification, dying to sin more and more, and living to righteousness more and more, is the carrying on this renewing work until it is perfected in glory.

The Apostle Paul in Romans 12:1-21 lays out the scheme mentioned earlier what is godliness Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) interprets it for us: It is to surrender ourselves to God, and so to lay a good foundation. We must first give our own selves unto the Lord, (2Corinthians 8:5). This is here pressed as the spring of all duty and obedience, (Romans 12:1,2). Man consists of body and soul, (Genisis 2:7; Ecclesiastes 12:7). The duty pressed–to present our bodies a living sacrifice, alluding to the sacrifices under the law, which were presented or set before God at the altar, ready to be offered to him. Your bodies — your whole selves so expressed because under the law the bodies of beasts were offered in sacrifice, (1Cor. 6:2). Our bodies and spirits are intended. The offering was sacrificed by the priest, but offered by the offerer, who transferred to God all his right, title, and interest in it, by laying his hand on the head of it, Sacrifice is here taken for whatsoever is by Gods own appointment dedicated to himself (1Peter 2:5).

We are a temple, priest, and sacrifice, as Yeshua was in his peculiar sacrificing. There were sacrifices of atonement and sacrifices of acknowledgment. Yeshua, who was once offered to bear the sins of many, is the only sacrifice of atonement but our persons and performances, tendered to God through Yeshua, our priest, are as sacrifices of acknowledgment to the honor of God. Presenting them denotes a voluntary act, done by virtue of the absolute despotic power which the will has over the body and all the members of it, It must be a free-will offering. Your bodies, not your beasts. The presenting of the body to God implies not only the avoiding of the sins that are committed with or against the body but the using of the body as a servant of the soul in the service of God. 

So to sum this up To be religious is to serve God. How? 1). We must make a business of it, and not be slothful in that business. 2). We must be fervent in spirit, serving the Lord. God must be served with the spirit (Romans 1:9; John 4:24), under the influences of the Holy Spirit. Whatever we do in spirituality it is pleasing to God no further than it is done with our spirits wrought upon the Spirit of God. 3). Rejoicing in hope God is worshipped and honored by our hope and trust in Him, especially when we rejoice in that hope, take a complacency in that confidence, which argues a great assurance of the reality and a great esteem of the excellency of the good hoped for. 4). Patient, in tribulation. Thus also God is served, not only by working for him when he calls us to work but by sitting still quietly when he calls us to suffer. Patience for God’s sake, and with an eye to his will and glory, is true piety. 5). Continuing instant in prayer, Prayer is a friend to hope and patience, and we do in it serve the Lord. It signifies both fervency and perseverance in prayer. We should not be cold in the duty, nor soon weary of it, (1Thess,v17; Eph. 6:18; Col. 4: 2). This is our duty which immediately respects God.

Next, Paul offered an explanation of sobriety which Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) again interprets: A sober opinion of ourselves, (Romans 12:3). It is ushered in with a solemn preface: I say through the grace given unto me: the grace of wisdom, by which Paul understood the necessity and excellency of this duty the grace of apostleship, by which Paul had the authority to press and enjoin it. We must not be self-conceited, nor esteem too much our own wisdom and other attainments, not think ourselves to be something (Gal.6:3).  There is a highly thought of ourselves which we may and must have to imagine ourselves too good to be slaves of sin and drudges to this world. On the other hand, we think soberly, that is,  we must have a low and modest opinion of ourselves and to what we have received from God our own abilities, our gifts and graces, according to what we have received from God. 

Moving forward we are now looking for an understanding and description of righteousness under faith. However to fully comprehend what we have in righteousness through faith a look at righteousness which is of the law I believe is needed first. Paul in [Romans 10] desired for the Jews to come out from under the law to be truly saved from the wrath to come, eternal wrath, which was hanging over their heads. With his rendition, Paul believed they could be convinced and converted but knew he could not pray in faith so they might be saved in their unbelief.  Paul was merciful, as God is, who is not willing that any should perish (2Peter 3:9), desires not the death of sinners. Paul in this chapter set the tone: it is our duty as “modern-day disciples” honestly and earnestly to desire the salvation of our own. To complete what has been set before us. I believe we need the following information to identify which righteousness those we are about meet are walking in. 

Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) offers an in-depth look at both walks in righteousness the first being the righteousness of the law. “This Paul shows in (Romans 10:5). The tenor of it is, Do, and live. Though it directs us to a better and more effectual righteousness in Yeshua, yet in itself, considered as a law abstracted from its respect to Yeshua and the gospel (for so the unbelieving Jews embraced and retained it), it owneth nothing as a righteousness sufficient to justify a man but that of perfect obedience. For this, he quotes that scripture (Leviticus 18:5), You shall, therefore, keep my statutes and my judgments, which if a man does, he shall live in them. To this, he refers to (Galatians 3:12), The man that doeth them, shall live in them. Live that is, be happy, not only in the land of Canaan but in heaven, of which Canaan was a type and figure. The doing supposed must be perfect and sinless, without the least breach or violation. Now, was it not extreme folly in the Jews to adhere so strictly to this way of justification and salvation, which was in itself so hard, and by the corruption of nature now become impossible, when there was a new and a living way opened?

Now we turn to the definition of righteousness which is of faith. Described by Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) Paul describes in the words of Moses, in Deuteronomy, in the second law (so Deuteronomy signifies), where there was a much clearer revelation of Yeshua and the gospel than there was in the first giving of the law: he quotes it from (Deuteronomy 30:11-14), and shows: 1). That it is not at all hard or complicated. The way of justification and salvation has in it no such depths or knots as may discourage us, no insuperable difficulties attending it but, as was foretold, it is a highway, (Isaiah 35:8). We are not put to climb for it, it is not in heaven we are not set to dive for it, it is not in the deep. First, we need not go to heaven, to search the records or to inquire into the secrets of the divine counsel. It is true Yeshua is in heaven, but we may be justified and saved without going thither, to fetch him thence, or sending a special messenger to him. Secondly, we need not go to the deep, to carry Yeshua out of the grave, or from the state of the dead: into the deep to bring up Yeshua from the dead. This plainly shows that Yeshua’s descent into the deep, or into Hades was no more than his going into the state of the dead, in allusion to Jonah. It is true Yeshua was in the grave, and it is as accurate he is now in heaven. But we need not perplex and puzzle ourselves with fancied difficulties, nor must we create to ourselves such gross and carnal ideas of these things as if the method of salvation was impracticable, and the design of the revelation was only to amuse us. No, salvation is not put at so vast a distance from us. 2). But it is very understandable and manageable. “The word is nigh thee.” When we speak of looking upon Yeshua, and receiving Yeshua, and feeding upon Yeshua, it is not Yeshua in heaven, nor Christ in the deep that we mean but Yeshua in the promise, Christ exhibited to us, and offered, in the word. Yeshua is nigh thee, for the word is nigh thee: nigh thee indeed: it is in thy mouth and in thy heart, there is no difficulty in understanding, believing, and owning it. The work thou hast to do lies within thee; the kingdom of God is in you, (Luke 17:21). 

So now we have these definitions to work with, which give us a solid foundation. Where like Peter we stand on the Rock Yeshua is building His Assembly upon Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) explains Matthew 16:18 “The grant is put into Peter’s hand [I say it to thee.] The Old Testament promises relating to the Assembly were given immediately to particular persons, eminent for faith and holiness, as to Abraham and David which yet gave no supremacy to them, much less to any of their successors, so the New Testament charter is here delivered to Peter as an agent, but to the use and behoof of the Assembly in all ages, according to the purposes therein specified and contained. Now it is here promised.

That Yeshua would build his Assembly upon a rock. This body politic is incorporated by the style and title of Yeshua’s Assembly. It is a number of the children of men called out of the world, and set apart from it, and dedicated to Yeshua. It is not thy Assembly, but mine. Peter remembered this when he cautioned ministers not to lord it over God’s heritage. The Assembly is Yeshua’s peculiar, appropriated to him. The world is God’s, and they that dwell therein but the Assembly is a chosen remnant, that stands in relation to God through Yeshua as Mediator. It bears his image and superscription. The Builder and Maker of the Assembly are Yeshua himself [I will build it]. The Assembly is a temple which Yeshua is the Builder of (Zechariah 6:11-12.)

CLOSING COMMENTS by Robert

So now knowing what our sacrifices represent as “Modern Day Disciples,” it becomes clear, our Assembly is built upon a rock a firm, strong, and lasting foundation, which time will not waste, nor will it sink under the weight of the building. Yeshua would not build his Assembly upon the sand, for he knew that storms would arise. So the call goes out to us as disciples like it did to Peter we must show strength and stability are with us. We must show that we are not shaken by the waves of men’s fluctuating opinions concerning us, but be established in the present truth (2Peter 1:12). The Holy Spirit brought me to Hebrews 12:7-8 to recognize the position of the modern day Churches offering a god who only loves you and does not chasten. Those who follow this walk need to know without the sacrifice of being Chastened you will be seen being outside of the Assembly and seen as bastards and not sons.

The captain of our salvation Yeshua does not call his people out to the hardest trials at first, but wisely trains them up with fewer sufferings to be prepared for greater. As “Modern Day Disciples” we must demonstrate the gentleness of Yeshua in accommodating their trial to their strength. We must demonstrate how not to magnify our afflictions, but as disciples, identify the mercies which are mixed with the hardships.

In closing, I want to share this message from God as he has directed his people how we should behave towards all our afflictions they must avoid the extremes that many will run into: 

1. We must not despise the chastening of the Lord we must not make light of afflictions and be stupid and insensible under them, for they are the hand and rod of God and His rebukes for sin. Those who make light of affliction make light of God and make light of sin. 
2. They must not faint when they are rebuked they must not despond and sink under their trial, nor fret and repine, but bear up with faith and patience. 
3. If they run into either of these extremes, it is a sign they have forgotten their heavenly Father’s advice and exhortation, which he has given them in pure and tender affection.  

CLOSING PRAYER by Robert

Father in heaven hear our petitions for your knowledge strength and discernment to demonstrate your love and compassion. Bring us your understanding and wisdom that when we please you, Father, you will bring peace into our lives even from our enemies. Show us the way to walk in your light that we might reflect our sacrifices so those in the darkness will see your glory and gentleness towards us as we go through our journey to everlasting life and peace. Give us the fervor to be living examples of how your blessings bring us through all turmoil silently but showing courage and endurance in your name. Allow us to share the knowledge of your presence calming and uplifting us through our turmoils as lessons lifting us to more significant achievements in your name. Allow our walk and demonstrations to prove your deity as the Son of God. This we pray in your name Yeshua, Amen and Amen.

Remember these articles are messages given to a humble, dedicated servant of Yeshua going forward as His Watchman sounding the Trumpet of trials and tribulations coming upon the Assembly and the believers within it. 

And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty if I am a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty. (2Kings 1:10) 

May our Father send His blessings to you lifting all curses and infirmities smoothing your path as you go forward in His name as “Modern Day Disciples.”

PRE-AMBLE by Robert 

Acts 1:3-5 v3: To whom also he sheweth himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days. And speaking of the things about the kingdom of God: v:4 and being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, ” but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. v5: for John indeed baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.  

In my last published article “The Beginning” I related, “The reality is Yeshua 2000+ years ago suffered was crucified buried and was resurrected to sit on the right hand of God.” “Salvation and Grace became obtainable gifts to all mankind because our Lord was resurrected. I believe Yeshua is now recruiting modern-day disciples to again spread the truth afresh without worldly attachments, myths, or traditional ceremonies.” as witnesses to his resurrection and the gifts of Salvation and Grace. 

The emphasis in this article is the preparation Yeshua did with his Apostles during the 40 days he spent with them before his ascension and the receiving of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Yeshua knew in many ways they were still attached to the world, and the Jewish customs and laws. As he knows our thoughts and continued attachments to our modern world and its customs and traditions, which our current day churches or centers of entertainment, calling themselves churches, have attached to the gospel. But Yeshua also knows all these things will fall off once we’re baptized with the Holy Ghost as he did with the Apostles of old. 

OPENING PRAYER by Robert 

 Heavenly Father hear our petition which we place before your throne! We humbly ask for your wisdom, meekness, humility, patience, understanding, strength discernment and courage to fill us as we are being prepared for the Heavenly Gifts you choose to bestow upon us through the “Holy Ghost’s Baptism.” We ask this in all humility and meekness in your name Yeshua. Bring upon us Father your words as promised in times of need remove the spirit of fear from our minds fill it with your knowledge as you did Yeshua in his time of need. We humbly in reverence for your greatness Father petition for your kindness to be upon us.  Amen and Amen. 

OPENING STATEMENT by Robert   

 All truths will be revealed through the Heavenly gifts bestowed at the moment we receive the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, our spirit will be filled with his knowledge as were the Apostles of old.

Once the Holy Ghost was received the Apostles entered into a dark, wicked and sin-filled world. So will the new Disciples come into a dark, evil and sin-filled world?  As the Prophet, Joel’s prophecies were described by Commentary in the book of Joel 1:8-13 All who labor for the meat which perishes, will, sooner or later, be ashamed of their labor. Those that place their happiness in the delights of sense, when deprived of them, or disturbed in the enjoyment, lose their joy. Whereas spiritual pleasure then flourishes more than ever. See what perishing,  uncertain things our creature-comforts are. See how we need to live in continual dependence upon God and his providence. See what ruinous work sin makes. As far as poverty occasions the decay of deity of piety, and starves the cause of religion among people, it is a very severe judgment. But how blessed are the awakening judgments of God, in rousing his people and calling home the heart to Yeshua, and his salvation?  

The new disciples will do so having the Apostles witness of Yeshua’s Resurrection and Ascension to be seated at the right hand of God. Our mission will be to Re-establish God’s church in the heart’s of Yahweh’s children as a result of them falling away and denying Yeshua through the false teachings which will bring about God’s calamities forecast in the book of Joel Chapter One. As the Prophet, Joel’s prophecies were described by Commentary from the book of Joel 1: 1-7 God is Lord of hosts, has every creature at his command, and, when he pleases, can humble and mortify a proud, rebellious people, by the weakest and most contemptible creatures. It is just with God to take away the comforts which are abused to luxury and excess. And the more men place their happiness in the gratifications of sense, the more severe temporal afflictions are upon them. The more earthly delights we make needful to satisfy us, the more we expose ourselves to trouble. 

However, as Yeshua was ascending our Lord gave the Apostles a severe warning to their question “Lord wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom again to Israel?” And he said unto them “It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you. And ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”  

Matthew Henry (1662 – 1774) “Yeshua came to set up his own kingdom, and that a kingdom of Heaven, not to restore the kingdom to Israel, an earthly kingdom.” As the Apostles had believed Yeshua was going to make the nation of the Jews as tremendous and considerable among the countries as it was in the days of David and Solomon, of Asa and Jehoshaphat.

“How able even good men are to place the happiness of the church too much in external pomp and power. As if Israel could not be glorious unless the kingdom was restored to it, nor Christ’s disciples honored unless they were peers of the realm whereas we are told to expect the cross in this world and to wait for the kingdom in the other world.”

“How we retain what we have imbibed, and how hard it is to get over the prejudices of education.” 

“How apt we are to misunderstand scripture to understand that literally which is spoken figuratively, and to expound scripture by our schemes, whereas we ought to form our schemes by the scriptures.” “But, when the Spirit shall be poured out from on high, our mistakes will be rectified, as the Apostles’ soon after were.”

Yeshua had told them they should sit on thrones (Luke 22:30). And now nothing will serve them but they must be in the throne immediately, and cannot stay the time whereas “he that believeth doth not make haste,” but is satisfied that “God’s time is the best time.” 

Yeshua’s warnings to the Apostles as he ascended were not only for them at the time, but for all his churches over time. His warning applies to the modern day disciples as fervently as it did to the Apostles of old. The warnings came about due to the question asked at that time in regards to setting up of God’s kingdom which they believed would be restoring Israel to its former position.

I believe the question we as followers today are asking is “when will Yeshua return and set up his kingdom” and the same answer he gave the Apostles of old applies here as well. As followers, we know the promise of His return, and we are impatient for the setting up of that kingdom and are inquisitive into that which our Master has never directed or encouraged us to inquire into. Perhaps like the Apostles of old we have promised ourselves a significant share and anticipate the divine counsels.

The check Yeshua gave then is the same today “What is that to thee?” “It is not for you to know the times and seasons.” It is clear we are not to ask this question his rebuke was as he ascended and was intended as a caution to his church in all ages. Take heed of splitting upon the rock which was fatal to our first parents, an inordinate desire of forbidden knowledge, and intruding into things which we have not seen because God has not shown them. Yeshua is showing us, which Matthew Henry (1662 -1774) reveals in the following quote. “It is folly to covet to be wise above what is written, and wisdom to be content to be no wiser.” Yeshua had given his disciples a great deal of knowledge above others (“to you, it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God”) and had promised them his Spirit. To teach them more now, lest they should be puffed up with the abundance of the revelations, he here lets them understand that there were some things which it was not for them to know. We shall see how little reason we have to be proud of our knowledge when we consider how many things we are ignorant of. 

Here it is essential for us to reconcile Yeshua has provided the knowledge and information he knew we could handle as we present ourselves as disciples in His name. The example is illustrated by  Matthew Henry (1662 -1774) Yeshua had given his disciple’s instructions sufficient for the discharge of their duty. Both before his death and since his resurrection, and in this knowledge he will have them to be satisfied for it is enough for a Christian, in whom vain curiosity is a corrupt humor, to be mortified and not gratified.  

Here it is essential those who have followed our articles over the months recognize your current position. Because we in the spirit have gone through the crucifixion as followers and received Yeshua’s teachings as the Apostles did and spiritually through the scriptures seen them performed by Yeshua as teaching examples. We should heed the above rendition which does apply to us as it did to the Apostles. Do not let vain curiosity as a corrupt humor enter into our lives or walk as we go forward. Yeshua has left us through the Scriptures the things about the kingdom of God and had promised that the Spirit should show us things to come concerning it. (John 16:13) “Howbeit, when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.”

Like the Apostles of old, we have through the Scriptures been given signs of the times (the book of Joel), which we need to observe, and know that it is a sin to overlook them (Matt. 24:33, Matt. 16:3). We must not expect or desire to know either all the particulars of future events or the exact times of them. Dr. Henry Hammond (1605 – 1660) explains “It is good for us to be kept in the dark, and left at uncertainty concerning the times and moments of future events concerning the church, as well as concerning ourselves. Concerning all the periods of time and the final period of it, as well as concerning the period of our own time.” 

 CLOSING COMMENTS by Robert

So now, Yeshua having left instructions for the Apostles as he has done for us Scripturally.  And said all that he had to say, he blessed them  (Luke 24:50), and while they beheld him and had their eye fixed upon him receiving his blessing, he was gradually taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.

Dr. Henry Hammond (1605 – 1660) believes “that the clouds receiving him here were angels receiving him for the appearance of angels is ordinarily described by a cloud comparing Exodus 25:22; Leviticus 16:2. By the clouds, there is a sort of communication kept between the upper and lower world in them the vapors are sent up from earth, and the dew sent down from heaven.” 

I know there will be questions or comments on this next paragraph some will say there cannot be the second ascension of Yeshua, and as a follower I already have the Holy Spirit guiding me.

“I in no way am asserting there can or will be the second ascension. 

Here I must explain having spiritually relived the crucifixion due to following Yeshua’s footsteps in preparation for our personal relationship with Yeshua we through the spirit have emotionally relived that day. Now having spiritually relived and witnessed the Crucifixion through the article “THE PRICE OF OUR PERPETUAL GIFTS.” We are now turning to the Scriptures to recognize and spiritually capture the witness of his ascension and leaving the promise of receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as part of “God” initially calling us to return to his laws which started this journey several articles and months back.

You see as we progressed and grew spiritually closer to Yeshua through the articles it has become clear God was preparing us for a great work. Earlier in this article, I revealed what I believe the Holy Spirit brought forward about what the great work was to be. “Our mission is to spread the word of Salvation and grace which will provide guidance and spiritual sustenance to God’s children who have suffered the great Calamities prophesied in the book of Joel 3:9-17“Here is a challenge to all the enemies of God’s people. There is no escaping God’s judgments; hardened sinners, in that day of wrath, shall be cut off from comfort and joy. Most of the prophets foretell the same final victory of the church of God over all that oppose it. To the wicked, it will be a terrible day, but to the righteous, it will be a joyful day. What cause have those who possess an interest in Yeshua, to glory in their Strength and their Redeemer! The acceptable year of the Lord, a day of such great favor to some, will be a day of remarkable vengeance to others: let every one that is out of Yeshua awake and flee from the wrath to come.” 

Recognize what the prophet Joel was describing in Joel 2:1-14 If the alarm of temporal judgments is given to offending nations, how much more should sinners be warned to seek deliverance from the wrath to come! Our business therefore on earth must especially be, to secure an interest in our Lord Yeshua. And we should seek to be weaned from objects which will soon be torn from all who now make idols of them. There must be outward expressions of sorrow and shame, fasting, weeping, and mourning; tears for trouble must be turned into tears for sin that caused it. There is no question but that if we truly repent of our sins, God will forgive them, but whether he will remove affliction is not promised, yet the probability of it should encourage us to repent. 

Thus the preparation for the receiving of the “Baptism of the Holy Ghost” as the final piece of Yeshua’s plan to send his modern-day disciples out to be available to bring his children back to His Father’s laws. And the re-establishment of His church. as prophesied in the book of Joel chapter 3: 18-21. There shall be abundant Divine influences, and the gospel will spread speedily into the remotest corners of the earth. These events are predicted under significant emblems.

Our walk has been a different one but special, and I have always maintained there would be significant rewards for those who continued in God’s call to return to following his laws.  

For those who claim they already have the Holy Spirit “yes” you do. And why you do is explained here by Matthew Henry (1662 -1774) “ Now that Yeshua was about to leave the Apostles and they, since he breathed on them and opened their understandings, were better able to receive the instructions he furnished his disciples with. 

 We acknowledge you must have the Holy Spirit to enact the miracles of God and confess Yeshua as the Lord, so without the Holy Spirit, (1Cor.12:7) There is no discernment. Like the Apostles, “before leaving them,” Yeshua breathed the Holy Spirit on them for them to understand and discern. As he blessed us with the Holy Spirit when we received Salvation, so we might discernment the scriptures and accept the teachings of the Holy Spirit to develop our personal relationship. The preparation for Spiritually receiving the “Baptism of the Holy Spirit” is to further deepen our testimony of Yeshua’s Crucifixion and witness to his resurrection accompanied by God’s heavenly gifts bestowed upon those receiving the “Baptism of the Holy Ghost” as the Apostles of old did at Pentecost. “ARE YOU PREPARED FOR YOUR FUTURE”? 

SPECIAL NOTE: 

They were of one accord. We cannot forget how often, while the Master was with them. There were strifes among them, who should be the greatest. But now all these discords were at an end, we hear no more of them, What they had received already of the Holy Ghost, when Yeshua breathed on them, had in good measure rectified the mistakes upon which those contests were grounded, and had disposed them to holy love. They had prayed more together of late than usual (Acts 1:14) and this made them love one another better. By his grace he thus prepared them for the gift of the Holy Ghost for that blessed dove comes not where there are noise and clamor, but moves upon the face of the still waters, not the rugged ones. 

Let us be all of one accord, and notwithstanding the variety of sentiments and interests, as no doubt, there was among the disciples, let us agree to love one another for, where brethren dwell together in unity, there it is that the Lord commands his blessing. 

The Spirit descended upon our Saviour when he was praying, (Luke 3:21). Those are in the best frame to receive spiritual blessings that are in a praying structure. Yeshua had promised now shortly to send the Holy Ghost now this promise was not to supersede prayer but to quicken and encourage it. God will be enquired of for pledged mercies, and the nearer the performance seems to be the more earnest we should be in prayer for it. They did this in one accord. This intimates that they were together in holy love and that there was no quarrel nor discord among them and those who so keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace are best prepared to receive the comforts of the Holy Ghost. 

A rushing mighty wind came with great force. This was to signify the powerful influences and working of the Spirit of God upon the minds of men and thereby upon the world. Thus the convictions of the Spirit make way for his comforts, and the rough blasts of that blessed wind, prepare the soul for its soft and gentle gales. There was an appearance of something like flaming fire, lighting on every one of them, according to John Baptist’s saying concerning Yeshua. He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire. The Spirit, like fire, melts the heart, burns the dross, and kindles pious and devout affections in the soul. In which, as in the fire on the altar, the spiritual sacrifices are offered up. They were all filled with the Holy Ghost, more than before. They were filled with the graces of the Spirit, and more than ever under his sanctifying influences; more weaned from this world, and better acquainted with the other.They were more filled with the comforts of the Spirit, rejoiced more than ever in the love of Yeshua and the hope of heaven. In it, all their griefs and fears were swallowed up. They were filled with the gifts of the Holy Ghost, they had miraculous powers for the furtherance of the gospel. They spake, not from previous thought or meditation, but as the Spirit gave them utterance.  

As prophesied in the book of Joel chapter 3: 18-21. There shall be abundant Divine influences, and the gospel will spread speedily into the remotest corners of the earth. These events are predicted under significant emblems; there is a day coming when everything amiss shall be amended. The fountain of this plenty is in the house of God, whence the streams take rise. Yeshua is the Fountain. His sufferings, merit, and grace cleanse, refresh, and make fruitful. Gospel grace flowing from Yeshua, shall reach to the Gentile world, to the most remote regions, and make them abound in fruits of righteousness. And from the house of the Lord above, from his heavenly temple, flows all good we daily taste, and hope to enjoy eternally.

 CLOSING PRAYER by Robert

 Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil; for thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever, Amen.

Bless those Father who have followed your footsteps to the Baptism of the Holy Ghost and will now witness your gifts of Salvation and Grace as life unto eternity in your presence Amen. 

As the Watchman, I must sound the Trumpet that in this article not only is it giving information but is providing us with a spiritual warning through the prophet Joel of an upcoming catastrophe. Joel relates to those who would listen to how this calamity is going to unfold by using the cycle of the Locust. Armies of insects were coming upon the land to eat the fruits of it. It is expressed so as to apply also to the destruction of the country by a foreign enemy. God is Lord of hosts, has every creature at his command, and, when he pleases, can humble and mortify a proud, rebellious people, by the weakest and most contemptible creatures. It is just with God to take away the comforts which are abused to luxury and excess, and the more men place their happiness in the gratifications of sense, the more severe the temporal afflictions are upon them. The more earthly delights we make needful to satisfy us, the more we expose ourselves to trouble. 

Our nation (Canada) is under attack not physically but spiritually, and many are confused and do not understand how or why. This calamity is going to occur from within and unfold as follows. It is understood literally as armies of insects but in reality is an invasion of Nations, people, tongues, languages, potentates, and revenging kingdoms. These insects first eat up the fruits of the country, there will be four types each destroying what the other left behind. They initially appear as being vulnerable but grow in numbers and use their vast numbers to destroy everything in their path. Heed the sounding of the “Trumpet” be prepared for our nation to fall into utter destruction and ruin as our enemy is coming with fury and force. We must take note our enemy begins as a simple insect yet becomes a lion when they come armed with a divine commission. Take heed all in this great nation there is a fall about to take place prepare yourselves in the Lord. 

I again remind you these articles are the work of a humble servant merely passing on what the Holy Spirit reveals as a message. May God bless all who partake and share so others may drink from this well of living water. God bless and God’s Speed.
