LOOKING FOR ISAIAH

[JLG]

Interesting study and observation.
* Yes; Mankind was Created wonderfully.
* Yes; Mankind was Made very good.
* Yes; Mankind was given Freewill.
* Yes; Mankind was given Warnings about choices and consequences.
* Yes; Mankind has a learning window, Be WITH God, He will be WITH you.

* Yes; Individually and Organizationally men have vacillated; “trying Gods Way”, “trying Mans way”, “with God”, “without God”.

* Not a secret…
A wonderfully CREATED body has;
Ears, eyes, nose, tongue, skin.
A living body MADE with its soul has;
Ears that hear.
Eyes that see.
Nose that smells.
Tongue that tastes/speaks.
Skin that feels.
* Not a secret…
The MAKING of a CREATED body IS that body’s gift of “communication”, “observation”.
* Not a secret…
Communication is a paramount Precept.
* Not a secret…
Observation is a two fold paramount Precept.
** Learn the consequence from one’s OWN EXPERIENCE of Freewill Choices.
** Learn the consequence from an Other’s OWN EXPERIENCE of Freewill Choices.

God IS Patient.
* Mankind growing, learning, trying, experiencing…With, without; God…With, without; God….With; without….God.
(God in turn…With; without…Man)

God IS Listening.
* Mankind maturing, deciding, testifying, vowing, pledging…With; without…God.
(God in turn…With
(God in turn…WithOUT…and the Caveat (after repetitious with, without, with, without and the testimony, vow, pledge WITH…
Forever He will BE WITH the man.
And the testimony, vow, pledge WITHOUT…
God has CAVEATS and OPTIONS…
* Harden their Heart “temporarily” that they can NOT choose Him or the One He sent.
(Called Blinding them, for His purpose…
Which is Exactly what God Himself did to the Majority of “His (generationally Vacillating) People” ISRAEL.
Expressly FOR HIS Purpose…of a Time of Express Days FOR GENTILES to become entered INTO the fold of His Faithful PEOPLE ISRAEL.
AND “OR”, regarding ISRAEL and GENTILES…
* Continual without, Continual doubt, Continual Rejection, Continual Promoting Rejection;
* Harden their Heart “permanently” that they can NOT choose Him or the One He sent.

Caveat…Fail to CHOOSE HIM and the One He Sent is the SAME as Rejecting Him.
(IOW, Not WITH Him….IS AGAINST Him).

Every individual is CAUTIONED, WARNED…Mans TIME is short. Man may live 10 years, 90 years, the individual does NOT KNOW…
Thus beginning young, a child, a babe, Hear, Learn, KNOW the Consequences, CHOOSE…
BEFORE your individual Bodily LIFE experiences DEATH. Dead body’s know nothing, can CHOOSE nothing.

Every BABE naturally born IS the parents GIFT from God. WITH that Gift comes the parents responsibility to NURTURE that babe.
* Food, Shelter, Clothing, Protection, Guarding, Teaching.
* It is a NARROW WINDOW timeframe.
( and SADLY the World Advocates, Teaches, Sneakedly Promotes and Back-pats Parents WHO jump on the band-wagon to have ANYONE but themselves feed, shelter, clothe, TEACH their children!!! )

The TIME is coming SOON, that God SHALL “AGAIN” intervene and “ONCE and FOREVER”, separate the DIVIDED, who Stand with and without Him and the One He sent.

Glory to God,
Taken

- Good!
- But harden their heart?

- Good!
- But harden their heart?

There are those who are “stubborn”, called by God “stiffnecked”, when they can not believe by Hearing and then Seeing what is foretold come to pass.
John 12:
[37] But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
[38] That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
[39] Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
[40] He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
[41] These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
[42] Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
[43] For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.


And there are those who (particularly ISRAEL), who believe in God, but struggle with believing God Sent Jesus as their Messiah….A man with no Kingdom, no Wealth, no Army?? To Save them??
(They were expecting a Natural Life Salvation, whereas His Offering of Salvation is Spiritual.)
Rom 11:
[25] For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
[26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
[27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

Gentiles have been entering into a covenant with God through Christ for 2,000 years.
(Called these last days.)
In “the last days”, during Gods Tribulations, Particular men of Gods ISRAEL shall be sent to teach the Tribes of Israel the Gospel of Jesus Christ, “BEFORE” God commences separating the divided “with and without Him”.

- Why did Yah.weh need to do that?
- The religious leaders couldn't accept Jesus because he was challenging their authority!
- And some believed in Jesus but they were afraid of the Pharisees!
- Matthew 19:8 says their hearts were hard!

- Why did Yah.weh need to do that?
- The religious leaders couldn't accept Jesus because he was challenging their authority!
- And some believed in Jesus but they were afraid of the Pharisees!
- Matthew 19:8 says their hearts were hard!

From early ancient teaching, the “revealing knowledge” is God is invisible to a human man eyes. However God had ways, means and an order to reveal to men, His “knowledge”.
His “ways and means” was to reveal “unknown knowledge”, “things that would come to pass”….and when they did come to pass, men could thus TRUST “His WORKS” that men “could” see, while not being able to SEE Him.
Ancient men, were curious, impatient, (nothing new through to the generations of today). THEY WANTED TO SEE God.
Itty bitty dilemma…if a human man were to look upon God, he would instantly die from His Brightness.

Gods way is learn His prophecy, Wait and See it come to pass. His order is ISRAEL FIRST, and they to be the Teachers of the World….about God and years later of the arrivial of Gods Christ Messiah … oops. Via circumstances that on a broad scale failed.

Enter the Gentiles offering to enter into the fold of Gods People and the astounding number of Gentiles eager to hear and experience.

Hardened hearts are for whatever reason anti-God, anti-Christ. Some of the “reasoning” IMO, based on scripture is God doing what He does….making sure an individuals “hearts’ desire” is fulfilled….Be the individual FOR or AGAINST (anti) the Lord God.
An individual with a hearts desire to Love God….God is his helper.
An individual with a hearts desire to Reject, be Against God….God is his helper.

God is Just. All will have their hearts desire fulfilled.

Glory to God,

"Via circumstances that on a broad scale failed."
- Yah.weh is looking for quality rather than quantity!
- Yah.weh is looking for the purification of his people!
- In the Bible, we are told about a few faithful servants of Yah.weh but what servants!
- Think about what the devil did against Job and he failed!
- What a failure for the devil!
- Job proved he was a liar!
- The next purification will occur when Jesus comes back as a warrior to install and run the kingdom of his Father!
- And then after the 1,000 years there will be another purification, the last one, the last choice for or against Yah.weh!
- Obtaining pure gold to build a perfect society primitive men have no idea about!
