I feel a pull towards the knowing the ways of the Apostles, and early converts that followed the Yeshua. Trying to understand Hebrew language and the culture in which G_d put in the old testament to follow. The new testament isn't a new law or way. It is still the old way. Yeshua followed and practiced it all and He was Jewish. So if we are to follow Him and be like Him then why don't we convert to His belief. Which is being grafted in the vine.
This goes totally against what I was taught to believe. I was taught, once saved always saved. Yet, I find myself being pulled this direction. Due to the fact that Yeshua himself said that: “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Heaven and Earth haven't passed away.
So what Yeshua is saying is the Torah; which means: "teaching", "doctrine", or "instruction" wasn't null and void. Why would that be put away with? It is a manual on how we should present ourselves, and what to eat and not to eat, and life lessons we can learn from the Kings, and prophets if we are in not doing the will of the Father YVWH. Being clean in all ways He has instructed.
This weekend I went to church that teaches the Torah, and uses the whole Bible from Genesis to Revelation. They believe in the Sabbath Day and observe it, and teach and observe all the feast and festivals. Also what to eat and not to eat which was explained by G_d. I was taught that all of that was a form of legalism, or all of that was done away with, and that the Law has been fulfilled when Yeshua died on the cross. So we can eat anything we want, and pretty much do anything we want as long as we ask forgiveness or pray over our food. Also I was taught that the Feast and Festivals were types and shadow of Yeshua, and we don't have to observe them.
I pray for the lost sheep, I was one and my eyes have been open, and now I have to start renewing my mind and convert and become a Hebrew. Hebrew means to cross over, or pass through. I want to do the will of the Father and be a faithful servant. To build the relationship with Him and get to know Him with his guided instructions.
Shalom...
