![]() “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1) The answer can be seen in the following Scripture passages: If, on the other hand, Yahushua spoke to mankind over several thousand years before He manifested Himself on earth, then perhaps His Sayings and Commandments might appear in the Old Testament as well.īut how could Yahushua Messiah speak to us before He was manifested on the earth? If the Sayings and Commandments that Yahushua spoke to mankind are limited to a 3½ year period on earth, then perhaps we could say that His Sayings and Commandments are confined to the New Testament alone. What are “My” Sayings and “My” Ccommandments that He is talking about? It is important to establish the answer to this question because the answer helps us know HOW to love our Saviour! In the New Testament Alone? The Scriptures teach us that to love and to know Yahushua Messiah is to keep ‘His’ Sayings and ‘His’ Commandments. “He that says, I know Him, and keeps not HIS commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” (1John 2:4) “If you keep MY commandments, you shall abide in My love even as I have kept My Father’s commandments, and abide in His love.” (John 15:10) He that loves Me not keeps not My sayings: and the Word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s which sent Me.” (John 14:23-24) “Yahushua answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My Words: and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him. “…If you love Me, keep MY commandments.” (John 14:15) We are eternally thankful that Yahushua loves us!!īut looking at #2 above, we must ask, “How are we supposed to love Yahushua?” Yahushua’s main message repeatedly calls out to mankind:ģ. Not at all! His second message to us, is that because true love responds in kind, He exhorts us to LOVE HIM, just as He has loved us.Īnd so we see in Scripture, that Yahushua is seeking for those who love Him, just as a Bridegroom seeks for a Bride.īrothers and Sisters, did we catch that? Yahushua is seeking for those who love Him! He loves us!īut is that the only message He has for us? When we seek out Yahushua’s Words, and analyze His ministry, we see that His first and foremost message to us is that. The person of Yahushua is such a uniquely towering figure, that we are compelled to look at Him, examine Him, and search Him out in the Scriptures, in order to discern His Words, and His identity. One of the great mysteries that has baffled men for centuries is the identity of Yahushua Messiah.
