There was indeed a RENEWED COVENANT between The ELOHIM and the people of GOD.
It was The OLD Covenant which had to be renewed every year
at
the time of the Passover
during the Old Covenant times.

IS MICHAEL ROOD AGAINST The PASSOVERS ... The Passovers Found in the Book of John ?
Hebrew
Roots popular leader, Michael Rood, has re-written Scriptures. Mr. Rood calls
it the "Corrected" KJV, the Chronological Gospels , and
has re-written verses that hinder his theories. . . verses which contain
TRUTH.
Just
like the Gnostics of old, Mr. Rood . . .

BIND THE SACRIFICE TO THE HORNS OF THE ALTAR !
HOLY
WEEK
in
commemoration of
The
Great --- and Final --- Passover
.
M'SHIKHA+ our Passover+
is sacrificed for us;
therefore, let us keep the feast.
not with old leaven,
neither with the leaven
of malice and wickedness;
but with the unleavened bread
of purity (Gk) and truth.
1
Corinthians 5:7,8
+ + +
.
The triumphal
entry of Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA into Jerusalem --- the first TRIUMPHAL ENTRY --- was over. The Temple of GOD was cleansed. Now laid
before HIM+ was the bleak business of Binding the Sacrifice unto the horns of
the altar, the task for which HE+ had been preparing HIMSELF+ since HE+ had
been born among men.
.
GOD is the LORD,
Which hath shewed us light:
bind the sacrifice with cords,
even unto the horns of the altar.
Psalm 118:27
.
BIND: from Strong's Concordance {631}; — 'acar, aw-sar'; a primitive root; to yoke or
hitch; by analogy, to fasten in any sense, to join battle: — bind, fast, gird,
harness, hold, keep, make ready, order, prepare, prison(-er), put in bonds, set
in array, tie.
.
And they came to the place
which GOD had told him of;
and Abraham built an altar there,
and laid the wood in order,
.
and bound Isaac his son,
and laid him on the altar
upon the wood.
Genesis 22:9
.
BOUND: from Strong's Concordance {6123}— `aqad,
aw-kad'; a primitive root; to tie with thongs: — bind.
.
Here we see the prophetic
fore-runner of the Sacrifice of the LAMB+ of GOD. Abraham's obedient preparations to sacrifice
Isaac, his son, his only-beloved son, shows us that.
.
We are thankful that The LORD GOD
did not require this sacrifice from Abraham's hand... and that HE does not
require this of us. HE provided Abraham
a ram in the thicket and an angel to tell him the obedience in his heart was
received as "acceptable" to GOD.
.
How was this prophetic
Scripture
fulfilled in Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA ?
.
Were there ropes which tied
and bound our LORD to The Altar
... the altar of the Cross ?
.
While walking the mile or so to
Golgotha, our LORD was made to carry the crossbeam of His+ Cross. HE+ may
have been tied to that crossbeam at this point for HE+ was very depleted of
strength. How could HE+ hold His+ lacerated arms up to balance about an
100-pound, rough-hewn, beam of wood?
.
Indeed, so depleted and weak
from the cruel treatment of the soldiers and His+ scourging , Our LORD was
unable to carry the crossbeam plus continue His+ walking to
Golgotha. So, the expedient soldiers snatched a traveler to carry it. Simon of
Cyrene was plucked from the crowded way as Simon was simply travelling through Jerusalem
from the country.
.
The Ropes of the Cross of Y'SHU+
.
It is not so written in
Scripture that there were any actual ropes or leather thongs used when they
crucified Our LORD, although some Christian art would have us "see"
ropes in a variety of ways in pictures of the crucifixion.
.
This, however, we do know for
certain: His+ binding came from within His+ heart. HE+ always did the Will of
His+ Heavenly FATHER.
.
Y'SHU+
saith unto them,
My meat is to do the will
of HIM that sent ME+,
and to finish HIS work.
John 4:34
.
Saying, FATHER,
if THOU be willing,
remove this cup from ME+:
.
nevertheless not My+ will,
but Thine, be done.
Luke 22:42
.
The Ropes of the Cross of Y'SHU+
.
Are our hearts bound to that Cross
of Y'SHU+ , the cross HE+ has chosen for us to bear, following HIM+ ?
.
Do we have cords of love that bind
us closely to His+ Will, no matter what the cost ?
.
Do we
stand for the Truth of The LORD, as a true Servant of M'SHIKHA+? Are we really His+ Servant,
doing the Will of GOD from our hearts ?
.
Servants, be obedient to them
that are your masters
according to the flesh,
with fear and trembling,
in singleness of your heart,
as unto M'SHIKHA+;
.
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers
but as the Servants of M'SHIKHA+,
doing the Will of GOD
from the heart;
.
Ephesians 6:5-6
.
Let
us pray:
Dear LORD Y'SHU+, I
acknowledge my guilt: I have sought to squirm out of doing Your+ Will.
So many times, I have taken
the easy way out, not speaking Your+ Truth from the Scriptures in love, but
just smiling and going on. I was not willing to pay the price.
I have avoided the
uncomfortable, the rejection and anger, which follows.
How shall I ever stand during
persecution ?
Cleanse me from protecting
Self. Cleanse me from hiding Your+ Truth.
I repent. Bind my heart to
Yours+, O LORD. Bind my heart to do Your+ Will at all times.
Bind me to YOU+ ; I give You+
the cords of my heart, O LORD.
I
offer this, my imperfect prayer, to YOU+, O M'SHIKHA+.

His+ First TRIUMPHAL ENTRANCE into Jerusalem ... But NOT His+ LAST !
 |
| SEE: The TIME-LINE for the PASCHA -- PASSOVER --- PASSION --- HOLY WEEK below the post. |
The TRIUMPHAL ENTRY of THE M’SHIKHA+
The crowd went wild for they had seen the dead arise before
their eyes, summoned by a Voice+ it knew.
The Grave obeyed THAT Voice+ , too, of HIM+ Who+ carries keys of
Hades' grave which none stop still when HE+ arises in great TRIUMPH to do His+
FATHER'S Will.
Roaring sounds on hills abound. Shouting Pilgrims rushing,
greeting this King+ Who+ raised their dead instead of stealing health and
wealth like earth-bound rulers wrestle life from grapes and grain and subjects,
freely.
Demanding naught, HE+ wept and taught the hurting to embrace the
Life HE+ gave to spare their souls of death's lying. Behold, HE+ said, I have
the keys to Hell's iron gate; death's own sting is waning, dying.
Facing combat at the Cross, enshrouded firm in FATHER'S Will,
HE+ settled the score but took the loss; Divine Blood dropping before scourge
or nail embedded HIM+ in Battle.
HOSANNA!
SAVE NOW
!
Joyous, dancing, waving Crowds proclaimed with glee; the SON of
David riding slowly on the un-ridden colt towards death to open Hades' gate,
never done before or after-- so HE+ received these momentary lauds with tears
... instead of laughter.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem ... HE+ faced your gates with wrenching
tears , seeing sorrow marking time to devour
the sons of Jerusalem who willed to kill the Prophets and now turning
from His+ Coming.
Rejoice, rejoice O Bethany ! On this day, GOD came to Thee! They
received their dead alive because HE+ came to revive His+ friend in time to see
His+ own demise and RESURRECTION Power !
AGAIN and again and again and again...
+ + +
The TIMELINE of -- PASCHA -- Passover -- Passion -- Holy
Week
REMEMBER: All events were intricately tied to the Jewish Passover Holy Days, as Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA was the UN-blemished Passover LAMB+, the LAMB+ of GOD.
1. Lazarus Saturday ~ The Raising of Lazarus of Bethany who had been dead 4 days, from the tomb.
2.The LORD'S Day ( i.e., Sunday )
~ His+ Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem ~ Following a great feast hosted by the
family of Lazarus, a multitude from Bethany accompanied Y’SHU+ on His+ way in
to Jerusalem. They were met by a multitude coming UP FROM Jerusalem, to greet
the SON+ of DAVID.
3. Monday ~ The Second Cleansing
of the Temple -- The merchants and money-changers were waxing profitably due to
the influx of Passover Pilgrims coming into Jerusalem at this time.
4. Tuesday -- The Last Supper,
the betrayal, and the drops of blood sweat in the Garden of Gesthemane,
followed by the illegal night "trial" of The LORD.
5. Wednesday --- The Scourging,
the parade of the Cross-carrying
through Jerusalem to Golgotha, the dreadful crucifixion at the 3rd Hour ( 9 a.m.), the time of the morning
sacrifice in the Temple.
The darkened sky from noon, the 6th
Hour, until the 9th Hour ( 3 p.m.) when it was FINISHED and HE+ committed His+
spirit into the hands of The FATHER... at the time of the Evening Sacrifice in
the Temple ... at which time the veil of the Temple was torn from TOP to the
bottom.
Joseph of Arimathea laid His+ Body
in the new Tomb.
First NIGHT in the heart of the earth.
6. Thursday --- High Holy Day. The
HIGH Sabbath.
First DAY in the heart of the earth.
Second NIGHT in the heart of the earth.
7. Friday --- Day of Preparation
for the regular Sabbath Day. The women went to buy spices to anoint His+ Body.
Second full DAY in the Heart of the earth.
Third full NIGHT in the Heart of the earth.
The "3 nights" in the
heart of the earth were completed.
8. Saturday --- Regular Sabbath
Day. The women rested.
The third full DAY in the heart of the earth
was
completed at 3 p.m. Saturday,
at the same hour
that HE+ died on the Cross
on Wednesday.
Having spent 3 full days and 3
full nights in the heart of the earth, as HE+ told us in Scriptures that HE+
would do, from 3 p.m. Wednesday to 3
p.m. Saturday, His+ Resurrection had to occur at 3 p.m. Saturday.
However --- the FIRST WITNESSES,
the women, did not SEE HIM+ until very early, before dawn, on The LORD'S day (
i.e., Sunday). That is when HE+ was revealed to them.
+ + +
Having said all this, we
remember that the Christian church services are commemorative, that is, we join
together to REMEMBER these events.
Thus, we join with other The
Followers of Y’SHU+ on Good Friday to commemorate His+ death and on
Sunday to celebrate the REMEMBRANCE of His+ Glorious Resurrection.
Although there is no need to
negate the truth of the timeline, there is also no need to cause more division
in the Christian camp.

KNOCKED to the Earth... PRE-PASCHA MEDITATIONS ... EPHESIANS 1:1
 |
| The BLOOD of the PASSOVER LAMB+ ... effective now through Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA, the True LAMB+ of GOD |
|
A note to Syriac or Aramaic Christians:
The time to stand united has come; the WHOLE House of
Israel… yes, the WHOLE House… is coming under persecution world-wide, both the
natural and the grafted-in branches.
It is time to lay aside differences and seek The LORD in
repentance, on our face. It is clear
that the 10 kings of Revelation 17 are actively pushing their agenda to
eliminate all those who hinder their program.
Followers of Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA are the only ones on the
face of this earth who can, through their obedience and their prayers, hinder their efforts. The satan knows
this, thus the persecution of the Whole House of Israel.
Also note: I have
used the form, Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA through-out, as found in the Peshitta,
instead of the Jewish form of Y’SHUA+ haMOSHIYACH.
Meditations for Pascha
(The Passover Season,
2016)
+ + +
Now is My+ soul troubled;
and what shall I+ say ...
FATHER, save ME+ from this hour ?
but for this cause
came I+ unto this hour.
FATHER, Glorify Thy Name.
Then came
there a Voice from Heaven, saying,
I have both glorified It,
and will glorify It again.
John12:27-28
+ + +
Meditation Verse,
Ephesians 1:1
Paul, Apostle of Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA
through GOD'S Will, to the holy ones, the ones being in Ephesus and faithful in
M’SHIKHA Y’SHU+.
From the literal Greek, Byzantine textform,
translation by SJH + + +
Now, from the Syriac / Aramaic
translations of Dr’s. Etheridge, Murdock, and Lamsa, courtesy of Dukhrana.com :
+ + +
Through GOD'S
Will, Paul became an Apostle of Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA. He responded to The LORD
when he was called. He was found to be faithful.
However, let us
remember the FORCEFULNESS of that calling which was put upon "Saul"
at the point of Paul's conversion.
Though a meticulously
righteous man according to the Law of Moses,
Saul was such a devoted enemy of
Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA that The LORD called
him in a special way. Saul received an over-powering vision which made him fall
to the earth, trembling and astonished, Acts 9.
Are we as righteous as Saul ? Do we ALSO need to be knocked to the earth in
order to respond to the Living LORD ... totally and with all that is within us
?
Recently we finished
the season of EMMANUEL+ --- GOD-Who+-is-Alive With
us -- coming
to earth.
The LORD Y’SHU+ took
on human flesh, becoming INCARNATE for one purpose: for the human suffering of
death.
Undoubtedly HE+ could
have vanquished the satan WITHOUT becoming incarnate. But HE+ could not have
suffered human death like we do without becoming incarnate.
And being found in fashion
as a man, HE+ humbled HIMSELF+, and became obedient unto death, even the death
of the Cross.
Philippians 2
Again... are we as righteous as that righteous man, Saul,
before his conversion to Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA?
Do we ALSO need to be knocked to
the earth in order to respond to the Living LORD ... totally... and with all that is within us ?
Are we keeping ANYTHING back from
our LORD Y’SHU+ ?
Is HE+ The LORD of our time...
our thoughts... our spirit ... our activities?
Are we accounted faithful and
numbered with the "holy ones" like the Followers of Y’SHU+ in
Ephesus?
LET US PRAY:
Dear Heavenly FATHER, the GOD
and FATHER of Our LORD Y’SHU+ and
His+ faithful followers...
Once again, I find
myself in need of Divine Help to empty myself of SELF, in order to do Thy+
Will, O LORD.
I renounce my Self's
indulgence. I renounce my unconcerned satisfaction with my own spiritual
growth. I renounce ignoring the call to
Quietness with THEE+.
Place in me the will to STRIVE to GO DEEPER
with THEE+, O Y’SHU+.
Fearful as I am, grant
me an over-whelming vision also... and knock me to the ground if so
required. Pull me to THYSELF+,
O HOLY ONE+ of Israel.
Remove from me
luke-warmness of heart and languishing zeal. Send the lightening of conviction
into my self-satisfied soul; I rebuke my Self, in the Name of The
LORD Y’SHU+ M’SHIKHA.
Help me to embrace
death to Self in every aspect of my being, like Thy+ Apostle Paul, so that I
may expend the rest of my allotted time
on earth for THEE+, O Y’SHU+.
In Whose+
Name I pray, and by Whose+ Merits
I am not destroyed in the face of Thy HOLINESS, O Gracious FATHER. Amen.
+ + +
Glory be to The FATHER,
and to His Beloved SON+
Y’SHU+ the M’SHIKHA,
and to
the Blessed RUACH haKADOSH.
ONE GOD:
FATHER, SON+, and HOLY SPIRIT,
both now and forever,
world without end.
Amen.
+
Worthy is the LAMB+.
Worthy is The LAMB+
that was slain.
Worthy is the LAMB+,
slain
from the foundation
of the earth.
Revelation 13:8
