Flesh and Blood can not........

[Shmanu YAH]

shalom alychem, and "praises and glory to the Most High YHWH alone" - our King everlasting and from where all true wisdom and knowledge comes, - baruk h'shem! and baruka ha'bo b'shem YHWH ->>> Yahushua.

In this message I'm attempting to clear up a little confusion to some and much to others dealing with our current physical being and the coming Kingdom.

We can all understand in this society in which we were brought up that this body that houses our soul and our spirit is to be taken seriously as far as keeping it healthy as well as protected and kept from defilement. We should have learned that the laws given to Moshe in w'yqra/ leviticus pertaining to dietary was to break us away from the paganism we learned in Egypt for so many generations. The most high YHWH wants a clean people from the inside out not just a outter apperance or as we later learned from Paul in his first epistle to those in Corinth, 3:16 & 6:19, "....Know ye not that ye are the temple of ELOHYM, and that the Spirit of ELOHYM dwelleth in you?" ......- and 6:19 "....What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of ELOHYM, and ye are not your own?" ......- this kinda shoots in the head that theory: "I'm my own man". This also speaks to the suicide proponents that are too foolish to understand that if you destroy whats so-called your body, you willingly DESTROY your relationship with the ruach h'qodesh that connects you to the Father .....OH OH !!! - this is exactly what h'shatan is in business for (ask Judas), ..... nuff said, selah

There is certainly a important purpose for our physical existance or the Father wouldn't have given us one, but the everlasting existance is what we need focus on. Lets look into what we have read in the past but try to rightly divide it this time. In the good news of Yahchanan / John we first saw in chapter 3:1-7, There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2 The same came to Yahushua by night, and said unto him, "Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from ELOHYM: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except ELOHYM be with him". 3 Yahushua answered and said unto him, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he CANNOT see the kingdom of ELOHYM". 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, "How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?" 5 Yahushua answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he CANNOT enter into the kingdom of ELOHYM. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit". ......- this is important dialogue for several reasons:

1) Nicodemus admitted they (the Yehudym leaders) knew only a man sent from Elohym could do what Yahushua does,
2) Yahushua told him re-birth through immersion (cleansing) in water AND spirit (ruach h'qodesh) is necessary to enter the Kingdom they seek ->>> YHWH's,
3) Nicodemus proved he didn't understand re-birth.... at all !!!
4) Yahushua made the important distinction between flesh and spirit
5) Yahushua speaks to a issue many fail to: thats those born of the sprit come and go freely, (without the fleshly understanding how it's done) fleshly can only hear what the spirit-born are sent to bring.

If we continue to chapter 20 we see a dialogue between Mary and Yahushua that should make us think on the context of it.
In chpt. 20:11-16, But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre, 12 And seeth two malakym in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Yahushua had lain. 13 And they say unto her, "Woman, why weepest thou?" She saith unto them, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I know not where they have laid him". 14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Yahushua standing, and knew NOT that it was Yahushua. 15 Yahushua saith unto her, "Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou?" She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, "Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away". 16 Yahushua saith unto her, "Mary". She turned herself, and saith unto him, "Rabboni"; which is to say, Master. ......- these verses often go ineptly explained or taught because they don't undertand that it shows Mary looked but did NOT go in the sepulchre after seeing the malakym, a shadow type of the Holy of Holies. also too many miss the presentation of the two"malakym" sitting at the ends of where Yahushua had been, - can you say "CHERUBYM surrounding the MERCY seat?".....good!.

For revelation lets look back in torah in shmote / exodus 25:22, "....and there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat (kapreth - attoning cover), from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony (shadow figure of Yahushua), of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel". (Also read hebrews 9:1-9).

Then lets look at the missed issue many don't teach in vs. 14, that she looked at Yahushua in his new state (devoid of blood) but didn't recognize him, - after that he made himself recognizable to her. Then we read something really important in 20:17, "....Yahushua saith unto her, "Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my ELOHYM, and your ELOHYM". ......- in the hebrew vocab the word "touch" originally "tgay" was translated the the hebrew root t'gara - gaw-rah', meaning: to take away, cut off, withhold, keep back, restrain, (Strong's 1639) .....- so he was instructing her "not so much" not to touch him but rather not to restrain him because he had yet not presented himself to the Father first >>> as well as presenting the first fruits aka "bkurym" that came out the graves when the earth quaked. Remember what Paul told us later in Romans 12:1, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of ELOHYM, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto ELOHYM, which is your reasonable service". ......- well Yahushua the perfect example showed us how to do it.... haleluYAH!.

Our mashiach in this newer estate was indeed flesh and bone but no longer energized by a blood pumping heart but instead now again energized / quickened by a life giving spirit. Many don't get the fullness of that because of the interaction he had with his disciples we read in John 20:19-20, Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Yahushua and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, "Peace be unto you". 20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Master. ......- but even this was givin greater clarity by the testimony of Luke, we read in Luke chpt. 24:36-43, And as they thus spake, Yahushua himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, "Peace be unto you". 37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. 38 And he said unto them, "Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? 39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath NOT flesh and bones, as ye see me have". 40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, "Have ye here any meat?" 42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. 43 And he took it, and did eat before them. ......- yes, they also didn't recognize him at first, and that "new" style of body troubled them. In our newer estate we will still have fleshly bodies that need be nourished including muscle and bone as we should have made the full connection from reading Ezekiel chapter 37:1-6, but lets just look at vs. 5-6, Thus saith Adony YHWH unto these bones; "Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: 6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am YHWH". ......- many partially understand and teach this is about Ysrael coming back together but miss the connection to YHWH's eternal plan for us to exist! ...... todah YHWH!

learn: most illnesses and diseases come through the blood, so if there is no blood, then __ _________? .....right, no diseases equal a perfect body!!!

Remember what apostle Paul wrote later to those in Rome? In his epistle apportioned to Romans 8:11 he stated: ".....But if the Spirit of him that raised up Yahushua from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up h'mashiach from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you".
We should also remember what apostle Paul wrote to those that were unsure about what would happen concerning their mortality, in 1st Corinthians 15:49-50 he wrote, "....And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood CANNOT inherit the kingdom of ELOHYM; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption". ......- so Paul let it be known NOT to concern themselves with with corruptable vessel but get ready for a greater incorruptable body (without blood) sustained by YHWH's spirit to inherit the Kingdom they seek. He re-inforces his statement in verses 53-54, "...For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory". ......- only then can we become incorruptable and immortal. Also many have tried to pervert this time frame for their "rapture" theory, that Paul never taught but instead declared back in vs. 52 ->>> "at the last trump" from that series of the seven trumpet blast (Revelations 11:15).

So as we understand we are to respect and protect our "fleshly vessels" aka bodies, we need to know to NOT take it to an extreme by watching the carnality of this world that teaches us to focus on a "perfect body" and the "body beautiful" that is nothing more than a carnally focused bunch of useless standards set up to keep us off our focus of the "perfect walk" or "beautiful relationship" with YHWH. These bodies are temporary,....... so much for that BLOODLINE of yours!
If we really wanted to be honest, if you were granted 1 wish to have a perfect / flawless body - what would you do with that perfect body if you were the exact height, weight and shape YOU wanted to be?..... how much trouble would you get youself into? ....OH OH - BUSTED! ( just look at what the youth do with their healthy bodies now, reminds you of you a fews years back huh?).
We need to know and understand to be worthy to be transformed in a moment - in the twinkling of an eye, we need to walk through life as Yahushua showed us to >>> righteously!
May YHWH bless you - with a twinkle in his eye,

selah and shalom

[Ahkdah Ben Israel]

I would like to say ShmanuYah it is well put together the explaination about these bodies that it is the spirit within the bodies which will give us the life we seek in the next life so we must not let this spirit that dwells in this earthly temple for now become corrupt we must keep our focus on the big prize everlasting life if we do the statues and the commandments of Yah we will obtain everlasting life.
