Forgive and Open Your Hearts

to the Gospel of Yeshua

from the book YHWH Is Calling

Thank the Creator, I can now return in my writing from my own feelings to the exhortations of the Almighty.

In an earlier part of this message, I proclaimed the call to Christian congregations that comes with the sounding of the Lord’s trumpets, signaling the beginning of a time of purification. The time of sifting has begun, and not all Christian congregations will pass through it. The teachings that label the Lord’s feasts as celebrations only for the Jews, the shifting of the original holy day from the Sabbath to another day, and the timing of Jesus’ birth being placed at Christmas are all rooted in centuries-old human doctrines and traditions. Without the help of the Holy Spirit, even individual Christians cannot shake off the veil over their eyes. However, the Lord has made it possible in this era to fulfill His promise of uniting His people, as described in Ezekiel chapter 37. While the elders of the congregations have a vital role in this era, the Lord also calls each believer to do their part in turning back to Him.

Those Christians from whom the Lord has already removed the veil from their eyes are even persecuted within Christendom, accused of converting to Judaism or similar things. But this is by no means about Christians becoming Jews or Jews becoming Christians. Rather, it is about the work of the Almighty, according to the Scriptures, to purify and gather His own once again into one people, joyfully awaiting the return of our promised Savior together.

YHWH is ready to confirm the message’s call as having come from Him to each individual through His Holy Spirit. However, there will be many who reject the message even before testing it. Some Christians will also turn their backs on the message, for instance, because they have not been taught about the workings of the Holy Spirit and therefore do not know how to test the message or ask and receive answers from the Lord. Some may turn away because they are offended when the sophisticated systems and teachings of civilization are suddenly called into question. For both Jews and Christians, this era will not only bring the good news but also a testing of their knowledge of God and their faith.

I deeply respect the way the teachings of the Scriptures have been faithfully passed down from generation to generation among the Jewish people. When I personally experienced the great grace of the Lord and had the veil removed from my eyes (the grave missteps allowed by the Almighty among Christians), I can imagine how strange the centuries-long efforts of Christians to convert Jews must have sounded. Why should Jews abandon the feasts, holy days, and other biblical practices ordained by the Lord for His people, when YHWH has established them as eternal decrees for His own?

I can imagine, however, that there may have been confusion among the Jewish people as to why signs of the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit of the Almighty God have appeared among Christians, even though they have not, in many ways, been as obedient to the instructions of the Scriptures. As a mother of many children, I can't help but smile at this point, imagining how our Heavenly Father has looked upon the situation from His role as a loving father, watching His beloved, stumbling siblings in their different ways. One blames the other without seeing their own faults, and the other, of course, does the same, just over slightly different matters.

I rejoice in how the Jewish people have upheld the Word with the honor it deserves and successfully passed down its vital teachings from generation to generation. I believe this is why Judaism has endured through challenging eras, even without its own land. In the context of the Almighty’s global plan of salvation, one can see how YHWH, through the Jewish people, has preserved the eternal decrees and practices given as unbroken commandments, such as the instruction to observe the annual feasts of the Lord, which was given even after the exodus from Egypt. As a Christian, I feel deep sorrow over what Christians have lost from their faith, and thus from their lives, through the abandonment of these biblical feasts and other instructions over the centuries. Yet, these were intended for Christians as well, as children of the same God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Dear Jewish brothers and sisters, there are, however, two specific matters that the Lord has instructed me to proclaim to you concerning this new era.

The first is forgiveness.

Forgive Christians for the actions of past centuries and the wrongful attempts to convert you to Christianity. You certainly do not need to convert from Judaism to anything else, but simply receive the Truth that Christians have cherished and proclaimed through the generations: that Yeshua truly was and is our Savior, our Messiah, promised by YHWH in the Scriptures.

The second matter was actually already mentioned alongside the first. Just as our Heavenly Father is now testing Christians' willingness to humble themselves, to listen, and to learn from the biblical feasts and the Sabbath—eternal decrees that the Jewish brothers and sisters have preserved as commandments for God’s people—so too is our Almighty Father testing the Jewish people in this era, urging them to listen to the Gospel message that Christians have passed down through generations. This is important because, in the coming era, only those who have received the Lord Yeshua into their hearts and have been sealed with the Holy Spirit will ultimately make it through and reach the final destination.

The wisdom of our Heavenly Father as a parent cannot help but leave one in awe. Do you see? The sovereign Almighty of all humanity has brought the descendants of ancient Israel into an era where the descendants of His chosen people, as sisters who have momentarily lost each other, cannot move forward without making peace.

The era described in Ezekiel chapter 37 has indeed begun, when, on the holy Sabbath appointed by the Lord of Hosts, we are meant to rejoice in the entirety of the Holy Word as a reunited people. Just as there is no Son without the Father, there is no New Covenant with the Gospel without the Scriptures of the Old Covenant. One sister has had the honor of preserving the written foundation of the Scriptures, while the other sister has cherished the Gospel given upon that foundation. In this new era, through the hand of the Lord, all will be united into one whole.

This era does not mean the establishment of new congregations, the dissolution of old ones, or the merging of congregations. It is about turning the focus of all congregations that await the return of our Savior Yeshua toward the same glory, hope, and purpose. I hope to see, in this new era, during the Sabbath, Jews visiting among Christians and vice versa. Just as the Jews can come and share about the biblical feasts and the Sabbath—meant for Christians as well—that have been preserved among them for generations, Christians can, in turn, share the vital message of the Gospel that has been passed down among them.

The Lord will powerfully testify to His presence in this new era through the witness of the Spirit, accompanied by signs and wonders.

It is now time for the daughters of Zion to reconcile, purify themselves, and together, with great joy, await the return of our Savior, while also calling others to salvation!

Hallelujah!
