The Beautiful Mansion
Yahuwah said that He will prepare a beautiful mansion in Heaven for you. You can spend eternity in the presence of a Heavenly Father who loves you so much that He came to the earth in the body of a man, whom is called His only Son, Yahushuwa, to die for your sins so that you don’t have to. The penalty for sin is death, and we have all sinned, but He paid the penalty on our behalf because of His love for us.
I'm so excited about Heaven. Being with Yah who loves us beyond measure is the most important reason. 2 Corinthians 5:8 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.” But I have to admit, I'm excited about the whole place because when you take all the stories of those who died and came back to life, who visited heaven while dead, and put them all together, it reveals to be a beautiful place similar to earth but way way way MORE beautiful, with colors we've never seen before, flowers and butterflies even more exotic and beautiful than what we've seen here, flowers made of light and changing colors.
It's to the point that there is proof of life after death, because the doctors who have had patients die and come back realized there are things they said that can be VERIFIED! Such as the things that went on in the E.R. or operating room when they were trying to save the patient – seeing the nurse stick a man’s dentures in the bottom drawer of the crash cart (exactly where they found them after he came back alive and was in his room and they couldn’t find his dentures until he told them what he saw when he was dead and watching the incident from above them). And some people describing everything that went on in the room while he/she was dead, in perfect detail, including the fact that one person forgot to put on the shoe coverings and his tennis shoes were exposed. A no no for surgery. And a doctor lost his pen, and the patient told him where it fell to, and he looked there and found it. A boy seeing his mom in one room praying and his dad in another room yelling at Yah, and that is exactly what they were doing, and there is no way he could have known that as he was in surgery. A person describing the code blue in so much detail of what happened that the doctor said he could have used a video of the description to teach students with. The people would watch these things after they left their bodies and were floating above them near the ceiling or up in another dimension, and then they’d be taken up to Heaven or down to hell before they were brought back to life. Blind people able to see when they were dead, and accurately describe things and people they would not have been able to see or know, and when they came back were still blind.
Doctors have written about what they witnessed and put their findings in medical journals! They are waking up! If an atheist or agnostic wants scientific proof before he’ll believe that God exists, then he/she can look in these medical journals written by physicians, the medical scientists who rarely dare to agree that these things can happen, and like to snuff off testimonies even by their own patients – they have seen so much of this that many of them are now verifying that there is not only an afterlife, but a Heaven and hell. Some became believers because of what they saw happening to their patients.
We can eat in Heaven, not because we need it for sustenance, but for pleasure and fellowship. Mark 14:25 “Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of Yahuwah.” Revelation 22:2 “In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” Revelation 2:7 “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of Yahuwah.” Revelation 19:9 “And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of Yahuwah.” Matthew 8:11 “And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.” Luke 14:15 “And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of Yahuwah.”
The food looks, feels, smells and tastes like food, and it is perfect and tastes like the most wonderful foods you’ve ever had, but apparently doesn’t exit our bodies as it does in this lifetime! One person ate pizza, a little boy ate macaroni and cheese, because that is what they chose to eat. I find that amusing. Another talked about a banquet table, one guy said Yahushuwa served him a plate of wonderful food. We won’t get full or hungry, fat or sick. I’m guessing that there is meat to eat, but not from killing any animals – I’m thinking, based on things I’ve heard, that it looks, feels and tastes like meat, but is created by Yah. I don’t know for sure.
In Heaven, some angels had wings and some didn’t.
"Bill Baker:Jennifer here is a short testimony to share of what happened to me. I’m not looking for any attention, I tell you this to be very true what happened. I will tell of the most important things Jesus said.
Folks let me share my testimony that happened almost 3 years ago. I got sick with Covid when it first started and ALOT were catching it. My wife took me to the hospital and they told me I was in bad shape , I needed to be ventilated and put in a coma. I found out later they thought I would not leave the hospital alive. So they put me in a coma and hook me up to a ventilator , for 3 weeks I was in the hospital. During this time I woke up and found myself standing in this totally gray area , no color , like a BW TV. There was nothing in site for as far as you could see. I looked at my feet to see what I was standing on , there was nothing but I was standing . I looked up and I saw a bright light in the shape of a person , some how I knew immediately who it was , Jesus , and there were three other bright light figures , one standing next to Jesus in front of me and two others standing right next to me , those standing next to me were my mom and dad , the other standing next to Jesus was a great grandmother. Like I said , I knew who they were instantly without them telling me. They were talking to me in my head , more plain and understanding then hearing somebody talk to you , you instantly know things , hard to explain. My parents I could feel that they were so happy , but they never said anything, it was like they were there to comfort me with what was happening , my great grandmother who I didn’t know told me things and to tell family what she said to tell them. Jesus told me things and showed me things , a lot of what I saw and was told was very upsetting and eye opening scary to me. I saw the evil in this world , I saw the evil taken over humanity , so much hate,deception,killing, evil !!!! Things will not get better , but a lot worse and it will happen faster as time goes on. I saw that artificial intelligence was of Satan , and this evil is now being introduced to the world , it will hurt humanity greatly . AI will be part of Satan , I wrote all this two years ago and now it’s happening . Jesus said there will be revivals and that has been happening all around the world, Jesus told me to talk to a pastor , and I found out later that the pastor had cancer bad at that same timeframe during my meeting with Jesus , later when I was out of hospital I found out this pastor was healed of his cancer , it just disappeared. I think the pastor was healed when Jesus said his name telling me to talk to him , it all happened in the same time frame. I did not know the pastor personally. Folks I am not articulate and don’t describe things too well , I am not describing the experience too well , but what all I’m telling you is the truth , the things I was told are coming true . Jesus told me he is coming soon , sooner than most think. He said when as many souls that can be saved after the revivals he will come. This was most important to Jesus , he loves us greatly and wants us all with him in heaven. Please folks tell all you know there’s not much time left and for them to accept Jesus into their hearts. After going through this , it’s changed me profoundly, material things mean nothing to me anymore, I feel and sense things , hard to describe, I have a sense of things are not right , a uneasy feeling , a feeling of this isn’t the world I know and lived in my whole life, evil seems to have gotten much stronger. I feel I don’t belong here. I know it sounds crazy. I also believe I was suppose to die but Jesus sent me back to tell people what he told me. I believe where I was , was a place right before a person dies , you’re at a point before you actually cross over , I don’t know I’m just speculating. This was not a dream to me , dreams are weird and crazy at times and this meeting was straight to the point and straight forward , I have never in my whole life , 63 years , ever had a religious or prophetic dream. I even prayed to have a dreams so God could show and tell me things , but it never happened , I tried to tell myself it was the drugs they gave me , but during the whole time , three weeks in hospital , this was the only thing that happened , if it was the drugs there would have been other dreams.there was so much more I was told , but too much to write and it’s not pleasant to hear I know what’s coming and it’s very bad. Bible says young men will see visions and old men will dream dreams when it’s close for Jesus to come. Please please tell people , family , loved ones about Jesus , tell them to repent of their sins and accept Jesus , we are in the end time season for tribulation to come , Jesus is at the door. For the unbelievers out there , Jesus is real , heaven is real , hell is real , May God bless us all , please folks , if you haven’t accepted Jesus , please do so , time is short.
BillBill BakerShare and tell as many people as you can. Our time is very short. The priority of Jesus is to get the unsaved , saved. that’s the most important thing we can do as Christian’s."

"My daddy and uncle was murdered a year ago yesterday. About 7 months after this I was needing to know, had to know where my daddy was. I prayed one night and begged God to show me if he was in heaven. I dream every night. But this night had no dream. The next day my son, he was 8, was following me around the house looking at me funny. He normally would be playing his game or outside. I asked what was wrong, he said mom I got to see pawpaw last night in heaven and he said to tell you yes. About 3 weeks later I prayed the same And again had no dream. My daughter was 3 and she is very ill in the morning, but this morning she was so happy and singing and she told me, mom I played with pawpaw last night up there. If God would've sent me those dreams I would have just thought it was from my own head, but this way I can't deny the confirmation. Now me and my babies have peace. Thank you Jesus"

"I could listen to NDE’s every day and never get tired of hearing the incredible stories so many people have to tell. I realize that some of the stories are probably made up, but I firmly believe most are true! There are too many things that can’t be explained for them not to be true. It gives me so much comfort and hope for when this life is over. I am so thankful that people have come out and told their stories in recent years, and that we can so easily find them on the internet now. For whatever reason I believe God wants this generation to hear these stories more then in the past. Maybe because the world we live in today is so much more difficult and harsh then past generations."

"This is so true because i died several times...i was sent back the last time. I was told i was unfinished...like this realm is a gestational place. A temporary place like the womb is preparing us for the afterlife, the permanent side of life. There everything is a thousand times better...you hear music all the time...when you desire to see someone your there as fast as you think of them...I cant wait until I can be with all my ancesters and all my questions answered but mostly i want to see God my Father....Jesus!"
Psalms 11:4 “Yahuwah is in his holy temple, Yahuwah’s throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.”
Matthew 22:30 “For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of Yahuwah in heaven.”
Revelation 20:10 through 22:6 “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before Yahuwah; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."
“And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from Yahuwah, Having the glory of Yahuwah: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal. And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel. And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass."
Now I will tell you how to reserve your own mansion in Heaven, if that is what you prefer! Yahuwah is holy, pure, righteous, and wonderful! Because of this, He cannot tolerate sin in His presence. In other words, sinners cannot go to Heaven. Every one of us has sinned. Some have sinned more than others. Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of Yahuwah.” Not even one sin can enter Heaven. 1 John 1:10 “If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”
Yahuwah created hell for the devil and his demons, although most of the demons are not bound in hell at this time for their eternal punishment. At one time they used to be angels in Heaven, but they rebelled against Yahuwah when Lucifer (the devil, satan) tried to exalt himself above Yahuwah. They were cast out of Heaven and thrown down to the earth. They are roaming the earth and the air, seeking people to destroy. 1 Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” Ephesians 2:2 “Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.”
Here on earth they try to inhabit people and control their lives. They cause diseases like cancer and epilepsy, bring on mood swings, severe anger and violence, cause accidents, and do many other things to harm people. Their main goal is to lead people away from the truth of the gospel so they will not be saved and have eternal life in Heaven. The more people they can take to hell with them, the more satisfied they are.
There is a judgment day coming when they and satan will finally be thrown into the lake of fire. The devil has convinced many people to sin or rebel against Yahuwah as he did. Because they are in rebellion against Yahuwah, they too will be thrown into this burning lake. Hell is just a holding place. On the judgment day Yahuwah will have death and hell, the devil and his demons, and the people who are in hell, thrown into a lake of fire.
He hates sin, and the person who harbors un-forgiven sin must be put out of His presence. The punishment for sin is death (or separation from Yahuwah). But Yahuwah never wanted to have to punish us. Instead of punishing us, His Son, Yahushuwa, took the punishment for our sins, but we have to repent of our sins and receive His sacrifice for them in order to be cleansed of them. And then we need to do our best to stop sinning. He will help us.
Yahuwah is one Spirit, eternally manifested as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. So Yahuwah came to us in the flesh, as a man, Yahushuwa. Galatians 1:4 “Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from his present evil world, according to the will of Yahuwah and our Father.” He was born of a virgin, lived a totally sinless life, and then willingly received the punishment for our sins so that we would not have to receive it.
Revelation 1:5-6 “And from Yahushuwa The Messiah, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto Yahuwah his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.”
Revelation 7:14 “....These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”
Some people become offended when they hear about the Blood of Yahushuwa. They believe that any talk of sacrifices is pagan oriented, and do not understand how ‘blood’ can wash anyone clean of sin. But think of how the blood in our bodies works. It is our blood that cleanses our bodies of impurities and carries away diseases. Our blood purifies our bodies by sending white blood cells to fight and kill infection and then carries the impurities to the parts of our bodies that eliminate waste. White is the color that symbolizes holiness. When Yahushuwa died on the cross, He shed His blood to cleanse and purify us, and carry off our sins. He is holy, the spotless lamb, pure ‘white’ and without blemish.
Three days after He died, He rose from the dead.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Yahushuwa died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.”
He lives, and has conquered death and sin.
1 Corinthians 15:54-57 “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. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to Yahuwah, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Yahushuwa the Messiah.”
He did this for us out of His love for us. Romans 5:8 “But Yahuwah commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Yahushuwa died for us.” John 3:16 “For Yahuwah so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
If we believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths that Yahushuwa is Lord, and confess our sins to Him, then His blood is applied to our sins and we are made pure, similar to how our own blood purifies our human bodies. We are pure, clean, and forgiven. We can go to Heaven to spend eternity with Yahuwah.
Romans 10:9-10 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Messiah Yahushuwa, and shalt believe in thine heart that Yahuwah hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
He has a mansion in Heaven prepared for those of us who will go there. John 14:2 “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”
John 3:3 “Yahushuwa answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of Yahuwah.”
1 Peter 2:24 “Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.”
Your spirit becomes new. 2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore if any man be in Yahushuwa, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” He will dwell in you. 1 Corinthians 6:19 “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of Yahuwah, and ye are not your own?” He will have a relationship with you. Revelation 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”
Please pray the following prayer and let Yahuwah know that you acknowledge you are a sinner, and repent of your sins, and receive Yahushuwa's sacrifice for the forgiveness for your sins. Acknowledge Him as your personal Lord and Savior, meaning you realize that He died for your sins and you will let Him be the Lord of your life from now on by seeking to live in obedience to Him. If you really mean the words He will forgive you of your sins. Your spirit will be reborn, or born-again, meaning your old sin life dies and you come alive in Yahushuwa.
DEAR YAHUSHUWA, I KNOW I AM A SINNER. I REPENT, AND I ASK YOU TO FORGIVE ME OF ALL MY SINS. I BELIEVE THAT YOU DIED FOR MY SINS, AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD, AND I THANK YOU FOR DYING AND RAISING FROM THE DEAD FOR ME. I RECEIVE YOU AS MY PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR. LEAD AND GUIDE ME THROUGHOUT THE REST OF MY LIFE SO THAT I MAY DO YOUR WILL AND NOT MY OWN. THANK YOU YAHUSHUWA FOR WASHING ME CLEAN.
If you sincerely prayed that prayer you are now clean on the inside, and prepared to live in a beautiful mansion in Heaven with your Heavenly Father. But you must continue to sincerely believe in Him and strive to live according to His will, which is in His Word, in both the Old and New Testament in the Bible. Faith and obedience go together - if you don't learn to obey Him then your faith isn't complete. Faith without works is dead.
What Yahushuwa did on the cross for us to provide redemption for our sins is a free gift from Him to us. We are saved by His grace through our faith in Him and what He did, and no amount of good works on our part can save us instead. We must take this first step towards salvation, to get forgiven of all of our past sins.
Ephesians 2:8-10 “For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves. It is the sacrificial gift of Yahuwah, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in the Anointed Yahushuwa for good works, that Yahuwah prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
But we must begin to walk in His good works, not continue to sin after we receive this gift. His grace doesn’t give us a license to keep sinning (breaking His laws), it gives us power to stop sinning (breaking His laws). If you willfully live against Him and live in sin (practice sin, which is breaking His laws, refusing to obey His commandments) after you receive His forgiveness, you will push Him away from you again. 1 John 3:5-6 “And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.” Eventually He will not be in your life anymore if you do this.
You can push Him all the way out by living in sin, because living in sin shows that you do not really believe in Him. If you really believe in Him you will believe what He says in the Bible and seek to live by it. You will forsake sin. Standing by faith means believing, trusting and standing on His Word. In this next verse James is talking about how faith and works go together, and faith without works is dead. They are inseparable.
James 2:14-26 (RNV) “What profit, my brothers, if someone says he has faith yet does not have works? Can faith not save him? Moreover if a brother or sister is naked and may be wanting daily food, yet someone out of you says to them, "Depart in peace. Be warmed and filled," yet you do not give them those things which are necessary for the body, what profit? And so faith, if it does not have works, is dead, being alone. Yes, someone may say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith without your works and I will show you my faith out of my works. Because you believe there is one Eloah (God), you do well. The demons also believe and tremble! Moreover will you know, O vain man, because faith without works is dead? Was Abraham our father not justified by works when he offered Yitschaq his son upon the altar? See? Because faith was working together with his works and out of works faith was made perfect. And the scripture was fulfilled which said, "Moreover Abraham believed Yahuwah and it was imputed to him for righteousness and he was called the Friend of Yahuwah." You see then because out of works a man is justified and not out of faith only. Moreover also likewise was not Rachab the harlot justified out of works when she had received the messengers and sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also”.
Once we receive the free gift of salvation we need to do the good works, and the ‘works’ is simply obeying Yahuwah’s commandments! Chirstian ministers will usually not teach you this. They act like ‘commandments’ (or ‘law’ which is EXACTLY the same thing) is a dirty word and was nailed to the cross.
Colossians 2:13-17 (RNV) And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the midst, having nailed it to the stake (cross). Having put off authorities and powers, He made an example of them, in boldness triumphing over them in it. So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or shabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is of the Anointed.
Preachers use this verse in Colossians 2 out of context to teach people that we do not need to do any of the laws and that they were nailed to the cross. But the commandments (Yahuwah’s law) are not what was nailed to the cross. It was the man-made rules (dogma) that was nailed to the cross. And the laws about the Levitical Priesthood were no longer to be in force by human priests because Yahushuwa is the final High Priest, and the once and for all sacrifice, and we go through Him, not a human priest and not with animal sacrifices. Yah’s commandments or law are not what was against us. The Bible says elsewhere that His law is good, holy, pure….
The writer here is telling the people not to let man judge them for keeping Yahuwah’s laws (dietary laws, feast days, new moon observance, 7th day Sabbath and other ‘special’ Sabbaths.) They are all a type and shadow of Yahushuwa, and we are supposed to do them. Not all of His laws apply to us in our present situations and communities. Some are for specific people in specific situations, times and places. Some are for priest only (and Yahushuwa is now the priesthood), some for men only, some for women, some for people living in Jerusalem, some apply to temple service (and there is no physical temple anymore), etc.
Well, there is no temple and most of us do not live in Jerusalem, but our bodies are now considered to be the temple of the Holy Spirit, and we are told to present ourselves a living sacrifice (instead of bringing animal sacrifices), and we can now enter boldly into the holy of holies, the very presence of Yahuwah (where only the high priest could previously enter, the room behind the veil, where the Ark of the Covenant was and Yahuwah’s presence manifested to the high priest) – we can do this because the Messiah, our permanent High Priest, dwells in us through His Holy Spirit. So, the temple laws still apply to us but in a different way, and the Scripture about not one jot or tittle of the law being removed by Yahushuwa still stands true, but with Yahushuwa as our high priest, we do them differently now.
Romans 12:1 (RNV) “I urge you therefore, brothers, through the pity (mercy) of Yahuwah, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, sacred, acceptable to Yahuwah, which is your reasonable service.”
1 Corinthians 6:19 (RNV) “Or do you not know that your body is the sanctuary (temple) of the Sacred Spirit who is in you, whom you have from Yahuwah, and you are not your own?”
Hebrews 10:19-20 (RNV) “Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest (holiest place, or holy of holies) by the blood of Yahushuwa, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.”
Hebrews 10:11-12, 14, 18 (RNV) “And every temple official stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices that can never take away sins. But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of Yahuwah… For by one offering He has completed forever those who are being sanctified…. Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.”
Hebrews 7:26-28 (RNV) “For such a high temple official (high priest) was fitting for us, pious (holy), without guile, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the skies who does not need daily, as those high temple officials, to offer up sacrifices first for His own sins and then for the people's. For He did this once for all when He offered Himself up. For the law appoints as high temple officials men who have weakness, but the word of the oath that came after the law, appoints the Son who has been made perfect forever.”
The point here is that when we have faith for salvation, then our faith will manifest in good works or obeying Yahuwah’s commandments (law). So we should study His word and search for the ones that apply to us and obey those. The ones we don’t understand, we should pray and ask Him for guidance. The Bible tells us to ‘keep’ His commandments, and keep means to ‘guard and protect’ – so even the ones that don’t apply to us, we can ‘guard and protect’ in our hearts by reading them and learning what we can about them, and respecting them even if they don’t apply to us.
Matthew 5:17-18 (RNV) “Because do not think I came to destroy (or abolish) the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. Amein! For I say to you, until the sky and earth pass away, one smallest letter or one minute part (jot or tittle) will by no means pass from the law until all whatsoever has come to pass.”
Yahushuwa said He did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it, but the words were not explained in our Bibles. These sayings are called Hebrew idioms. Idioms don’t mean what they look like they mean, and the local people know their true meaning but outsiders do not understand them. Some examples of some English idioms would be “break a leg” “knock yourself out” “that recipe is to die for!” Of course we wouldn’t be telling someone to really break their leg or knock themselves out or to die for a recipe. They are just expressions that mean “go for it” or “the recipe is the greatest!” So Hebrew idioms should be explained for us English speaking Bible readers, but they are not.
So when He forgave the adulterous woman instead of stoning her (she was showing repentance when she fell on her knees), He was not breaking His own law (He is the word made flesh – He is the one who made these laws – that is why He said He is the Lord of the Sabbath – He didn’t mean that He wants us to ‘break’ the Sabbath). When He picked grain on the Sabbath (a day that no ‘work’ is to be done) and when He healed a woman on the Sabbath, He was not breaking His laws. Those things are allowed on the Sabbath.
There is so much that the ministers, preachers, and teachers do not teach correctly, and new believers do not get taught how to live for Yahuwah. They usually think that if they pray at the altar to be saved, it’s a done deal and they have their ticket to Heaven. Getting born-again only covers past sins, not future ones. We all must learn how to live Yahuwah’s way by studying His word and praying for His Holy Spirit to teach us, because you won’t get taught right in most churches.
I’m writing all this to give you a good start in your walk with Yahuwah and in your salvation, because if you depend on the pastors and evangelists to teach you, you will not truly learn how to live. And we are not to continue to sin once we get born-again. We are to study our Bibles and learn how to live for Yahuwah (how to obey His laws and statutes) and as we learn each new commandment that applies to us, and understand it, we must not willfully disobey it. 2 Timothy tells us to study to show ourselves approved, rightly dividing the word of truth, so that we will be a workman not ashamed.
So many teach that salvation is a one time altar experience and that you don’t have to do any ‘works’, and even that you’re automatically saved from future sins as well, even without repenting of them if you do them, but this is a doctrine from hell. Salvation begins by grace through faith, but it is worked out daily by our walk with Yahuwah through our obedience to Him, and if we endure to the end we will be saved. It takes time to learn how to be obedient, but most don’t even try to obey His laws and statutes as the Bible instructs us to. Especially when it comes to keeping His 7th day Sabbath, holy days, dietary laws, and several other ones.
Hebrews 9:26-31 (RNV) “For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and fiery zeal that will devour the adversaries. Someone that disregards Mosheh's law dies without pity on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse vengeance, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of Yahuwah underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified common, and insulted the Spirit of Grace? For we know Him who said, "Revenge is Mine, I will repay," says Yahuwah. And again, "Yahuwah will judge His people." It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living Eloah (God).”
1 John 3:3-8 “And every man that has this hope in Him purifies himself even as He is pure. Whosoever commits sin also transgresses the law and sin is the transgression of the law. And you know because He was made manifest to take away our sins and in Him is no sin. Whosoever abides in Him does not sin. Whosoever sins has not seen Him, neither known Him. Little children, let no man deceive you. He that does righteousness is righteous as He is righteous. He that commits sin is out of the devil because the devil sinned from the beginning. Toward this purpose the Son of Yahuwah was made manifest that He might destroy the works of the devil.”
John 15:5 “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.”
Romans 11:17 “And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree.”
Romans 11:19-24 “Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if Yahuwah spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of Yahuwah: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for Yahuwah is able to graft them in again. For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?”
These verses refer to Yahuwah as the vine or olive tree. The Jews are the natural branches or Yahuwah’s people. They were broken away from relationship with Him because of their unbelief in obeying Yahuwah (they worshipped idols over and over) and they also do not believe in Yahushuwa as the Messiah. The Gentiles (any people who are not Jewish), even though they were not part of the natural tree, or original relationship with Yahuwah, are considered branches from ‘wild olive trees’. They were grafted into the natural tree (or Yahuwah’s Kingdom) because of their faith in Yahushuwa. But if they don’t continue in faith, they too will be broken off – in other words, the once saved, always saved, cliché is a lie! And walking in ‘faith’ includes walking in obedience to the one we are supposed to be being faithful to. The verses above that teach that if we live in sin we are not of Yahuwah but of satan. It tells us to purify ourselves – that is an action on our part. This “grace doesn’t require us to ‘do’ anything” idea is a pitiful lie! We must walk away from sin and live as Yahuwah instructs us to. Grace empowers us to do that.
Galatians 3:26-29 “For ye are all the children of Yahuwah by faith in Messiah Yahushuwa. For as many of you as have been baptized into Yahushuwa have put on Yahushuwa. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Messiah Yahushuwa. And if ye be Yahushuwa’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
You can lose your relationship with Him by losing faith and living in sin. If you choose to continue to live in sin, it shows you don’t have the faith required to be saved. Please do not do this. Yet, if you do sin, and then you repent, He will forgive you and you will again be in relationship with Him (if you really mean it and turn from that sin, and aren’t just saying ‘sorry’ to cover your butt.) If the branches abide not still in unbelief they shall be grafted back in! You are not saved by the things that you do or do not do, but by faith in Yahushuwa and by His grace. Romans 3:24 “Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Messiah Yahushuwa.” Simultaneously, if you really have faith in Yahushuwa you will try to do the right things.
Some people say they are saved and believe in our Savior, yet they continue to live in sin. They are fooling themselves. People who willingly and knowingly live in repeated sin are NOT saved. They often try to justify the sin by saying things like “God can handle it,” or “God created me a sexual being and does not expect me to live without sex though I am not married,” or “God knows my heart, and knows I really love Him although I do all these bad things.” The truth is, if we really give Him our lives and receive Him as our Lord and Savior and love Him, we will hate sin (transgression of His law), and strive to live without it! John 14:15 “If ye love me, keep my commandments.”
John 15:10-11 “If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.”
1 John 2:3-6 “And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of Yahuwah perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.”
Matthew 7:21-23 (RNV) ““Not everyone who says to Me, 'Master! Master,' will enter into the kingdom of the sky but he who does the will of My Father in the sky. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Master! Master! Have we not prophesied in Your name, and cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will confess to them, 'Because I never knew you, depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'”
Let these verses sink in, because most ministers do not teach that we are to obey His laws! Yet over and over, even in the New Testament where it’s Yahushuwa speaking, the Scriptures teach that we are to obey His laws! Remember - law, commandment, teachings, instructions, Torah – are ALL exactly the same thing! Teachers of the word act like these verses aren’t in there, or don’t mean what they say, and might as well tear them out of their Bibles, because they don’t believe them.
Proverbs 4:4 “He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.” If we live according to His Word not only does that show that we really love Him, but it keeps us full of joy, health, life, prosperity and success!
James 4:8 “Draw nigh to Yahuwah, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.” As long as you study His Word and strive to draw near to Him, He will draw near to you.
James 4:7 “Submit yourselves therefore to Yahuwah. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” He will help you overcome anything the devil tries to throw at you, but you have to submit to Him before you can resist the devil and see him flee from you.
Revelation 12:11 “And they overcame him (the devil) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony...”
Revelation 3:21 “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”
Be sensitive to Him. If He wants to correct an error in your life, He will usually speak to you in a ‘still small voice’ that gently urges you to repent and do things differently.
2 Peter 3:9 “Yahuwah is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” In other words, you do not have to fear that He has left you every time you commit a sin. All human beings, even believers, sin and make mistakes. His grace and love covers a multitude of our sins. He overlooks many of them because He knows we need time to grow and learn how to please Him. But if you realize that you have sinned, and then continue to live in sin rather than repent, He will eventually give you up to desolation, until you turn around and come back to Him. It’s best to be quick to repent.
2 Chronicles 30:7-9 “And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against Yahuwah God of their fathers, who therefore gave them up to desolation, as ye see. Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto Yahuwah, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve Yahuwah your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you. For if ye turn again unto Yahuwah, your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that lead them captive, so that they shall come again into this land: for Yahuwah your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him.”
Psalms 81:10-14 “I am Yahuwah thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it. But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me. So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels. Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways! I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.”
Those who claim to be born-again, but continue deliberately and knowingly to live in sin (break His commandments), are just deceiving themselves. Yahuwah calls them hypocrites and does not allow them into Heaven.
Matthew 15:7-9 “Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of Yahuwah, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of Yahuwah, that ye may keep your own tradition.”
Although the Word of Yahuwah tells them not to sin, they reject it and keep doing their own thing. Matthew 24:51 “And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” It is sad to say, but the nation is full of these kinds of people who say they are Christians or believers, but live to please themselves instead of Yahuwah. They say with their words that they are believers, and they may go to church and act like believers there, but their hearts are far from Yahuwah. They do not live for Him, but they live for themselves.
2 Timothy 3:2-5 “For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of Yahuwah; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”
The next verses refer to people worshiping their own desires or idols instead of Yahuwah. They would not repent so Yahuwah gave them up to their idol worship.
Romans 1:21-24 “Because that, when they knew Yahuwah, they glorified him not as Yahuwah, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible Yahuwah into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore Yahuwah also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves.”
They were committing sexual sin, fornication and homosexuality. Sexual sin is a very common outward sin among believers today. Many, many professing believers are having sexual relations with people they have no business having sex with. They justify themselves in many ways and deceive themselves. Yahuwah does not change the consequences of sin just because people believe something is not really sin. Proverbs 14:12 “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of Yahuwah? Be not deceived: neither fornicators (idolatry and/or illicit sex), nor idolaters (idol worship- they love something or someone more than they love Yahuwah), nor adulterers (sex with someone else’s spouse), nor effeminate (men who think they are women in men’s bodies), nor abusers of themselves with mankind (homosexuals and lesbians), nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of Yahuwah.”
If you are involved in these types of relationships, you will need to give them up. Fornication is sin, and it is as bad as other sins. Once you give your life to Yahushuwa He will give you the strength to give it up. You do not need to clean up your life in order to get born-again! Get born-again first, then you will have the power of Yahuwah, through His grace, to help you clean up your life! He accepts you just as you are. Romans 5:8 “But Yahuwah commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Yahushuwa died for us.” Just sincerely seek Him and desire to please Him.
Proverbs 3:5-8 “Trust in Yahuwah with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear Yahuwah, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.”
Departing from evil brings us health. Participating in evil brings sickness to our bodies. Study His Word, learn about Him and walk away from sin. Walk as Yahushuwa walked. John 8:11 “....And Yahushuwa said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.” Remember that – He told her to GO AND SIN NO MORE. Why? Because when we receive His forgiveness, we are not to keep on sinning, we are to repent which means turn away from sin, which means stop sinning. When we get born-again, we are no longer sinners, but righteous people. So many try to excuse their sins that they refuse to give up by saying “we are all sinners saved by grace!” Grace doesn’t give us a license to sin. It empowers us to STOP SINNING. Once we are born-again, we should not say we are sinners, even though we will slip and stumble at times, sinning because we messed up, because if we are right in our heart and trying to do right in our actions, we’ll immediately repent and move on as a righteous person would. We once were sinners, but we are not to go under the label of ‘sinners’ anymore. Slipping up and sinning now and then is not the same as ‘being’ a ‘sinner’. (“I once was lost, but now I’m found, was blind, but now I see.”)
1 John 1:8-9 “Because if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
1 John 2:1-4 “My little children, these things I write to you that you do not sin. And if someone sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Yahushua the Anointed, the Righteous, and He is the propitiation for our sins. Moreover not for ours only, but also for the whole world. And in this we know because we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He that says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him.”
Those who overcome until the end will spend eternity with Him in Heaven, where their ‘un-haunted’ house awaits them! They will be given power over nations. Revelation 2:25-26 “But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations.” In the Millennium there will be nations here on earth.
Continuing to live in sin after getting saved is a form of idol worship. People who do this are loving the things of the world, or their own desires, more than they love Yahuwah. They make these sinful things into idols and worship them by making them priority over Yahuwah. The Bible says that we should have no other gods before Him. That means we should put Him first, not last, second to last, or even second! When we put Him first, we do what He wants us to, instead of what others want us to. Celebrating Christmas, Easter, Halloween, etc., is a form of idol worship. Many who celebrate it or participate in other occult activities do not realize that they are doing something wrong.
The purpose of this writing is not to condemn you. It is to inform you. You need to understand why these things are wrong. With knowledge of the truth you can repent of any wrong doing, turn away, and sin no more! The Bible says that the truth sets us free! That is why I told you about the fact that you can lose your relationship with Yahuwah if you refuse to try to live right once you are born-again. Many people are not taught this. They repeat the ‘sinners’ prayer’ at the altar, or after reading a tract or book. Then they go home and live for the devil, and think they have really been saved. The truth is we must turn away from sin when we turn to Yahuwah, or we are not really turning to Yahuwah. The two paths go in opposite directions. We cannot walk both ways simultaneously. We are either walking with Yahuwah, or walking away from Him. The Bible says that we cannot serve two masters. We will love one and hate the other.
""Heaven is for Real" - Surprise Ending"
This scene is where he saw Akiane's painting of 'Jesus' on his father's computer, and recognized Him, and said "That's Him", referring to the man 'Jesus' he met in Heaven. The real boy, Colton, said this actor played the part perfectly, and was like a little 'mini-me' Colton in the movie.
"Both Akiane and Colton were struck by the beauty of 'Jesus’ eyes. “All I remember were the eyes,” Akiane says, “ and they were like no other colors that were ever created. The closest color I can depict through paints is a sapphire hue.” Colton identified the color of 'Jesus’ eyes as blue-green."
"30 Apr 2023 Colton and Todd Burpo Discuss the Story of Heaven Is For Real. During surgery on his ruptured appendix, Colton Burpo went to Heaven, then came back!
