Repentance - How to repent



Repentance



Mathew 4:17 "From that time Jesus began to preach and to say REPENT: for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand."



Who is Repentance for?



ACTS 5:31 "Him (Jesus Christ) hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins."



Repentance and forgiveness of sins is referring to Christ coming as the Savior for the Israelites. He was sacrificed on the cross for their SINS, the breaking of the laws contained in the first covenant given to them by Moses. Therefore, Israelites must repent by following Christ, the mediator of the new and better covenant.


What is Repentance? ... And How to Accomplish it.


In order for the Israelites to understand repentance, they must know their history! The Israelites (the people listed below) are Gods chosen people. God chose the Israelites before they were a nation in the earth. He made covenants with there for fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that they would be his people forever. You can read about these covenants in the book of Genesis, Genesis 17:7-8, Genesis 26:4, and Genesis 35:12 are just a few.

Genesis 15:12-21, foretold of Israel’s captivity and deliverance from the Egyptians. The Most High delivered the Israelites from Egypt by the hand of Moses. While in the wilderness the Israelites entered into an agreement/ covenant with God, read Deuteronomy 27:14-26. They broke that agreement! They did not keep God’s Commandments, his Laws, Statutes and Judgments. Consequently for breaking that covenant, we became CURSED, read Deuteronomy 28:15-68 and Leviticus 26:14-39. The Israelites needed a Savior; a way out from the curses found throughout the Old Testament, that Savior was and is Christ.

JEREMIAH 31:31 "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:"

JEREMIAH 31:32 "Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:" Also written in Hebrews 8:8-10.

God made a new covenant with us, thus fulfilling his promises to our forefathers,

Leviticus 26:42 "Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember the land."

In order to be saves from the curses/ punishments and enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, we must repent for breaking our agreement with God (not keeping his Laws, which we received under Moses) by following the New Covenant, Christ and his teachings.

Deuteronomy 18:18 "I will raise them up a Prophet from among their bretheren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."

Deuteronomy 18:19 "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him."

In order to inherit eternal life in the kingdom of Yahawah established by Yahawashi one must first repent. Despite how righteous you may claim to be you must repent to be accepted into the glorious kingdom.

Luke 13:[3] "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish".

The word perish is defined as:

1. To die or be destroyed, especially in a violent or untimely manner:
2. To pass from existence; disappear gradually.

Since all have sinned we must all repentant of our former ways and never return to them and we must put on the full armor of Yahawah to avoid sinning. In the book of Ephesians 6:11 the scripture reads "Put on the whole armor of Yah that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." What is the scripture speaking about? What does the word armor mean? Armor is all of the tools used to wage a battle or to defend ones self when in battle. The battle spoken of in these next verses is a type of spiritual battle, which has been waged against the people of Yah in this wicked corrupt world. One of the very first things that Yahawashi spoke of when he began to teach was repentance, Matthew 4: [17] "From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand".

The reason that it is essential to repent is because we are all guilty of breaking the laws, of Yahawah for to sin is braking of the law. In other words if we do not obey or disobey that which Yahawah has commanded we brake the law and we are sinning.

1 John 3:[4] "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law".

If you do not study the laws of the old testaments then how will you know what sin is? You can not. It is therefore essential that we know the laws. We know that the scriptures are clear to all of those priest blessed by Yahawah. Before anyone suggest that Christ came to change the law let me refer you to Matthew 5:17 where Yahawashi( Jesus Christ) provides his confirmation that laws are still in affect,

Matthew 5:17-18
[17] "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
[18] For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled".

When you sin you begin to kill yourself spiritually and mentally for when you sin you separate yourself from Yahawah this spiritual death is then follow by a physical death.

Romans 6: [23] "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord".

For the sins that we commit we are rewarded with death in this life and the one that follow if we do not repent.

Proverbs 28:4-5:
[4] "They that forsake the law praise the wicked (when you disobey the laws of Yahawah, you may praise filthy R& B singers, Gangster rappers, women that model semi nude on bill boards signs and TV) but such as keep the law contend with them. ( Yet those of us that keep Yah's laws are content with keeping the laws for we understand the importance thereof) [5] Evil men understand not judgment ( if you follow this world you do not truly understand or perhaps disbelieve the judgement of Yahawah) but they that seek the LORD understand all things".

In order to escape condemnation one must acknowledge his\her sins, ask for forgiveness and sin no more.

Psalms 51:3-4:
[3] "For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. [4] Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest".

Job 33:27-28:
[27] "He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
[28] He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light".

The mistake that many people make is to assume that treating people nice will get them into heaven. Or they feel that they can change on their own without obeying the law. One cannot change and live in accord with the laws unless one knows the laws. You have to know it to live but it for this is the sort of change that Yahawah requires of us,

Psalms 119: [9] "Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word".

It is the laws of Yahawah that change us into the Christ like being of which he intends us to be.

Psalms 19: [7] "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple".

Only if Israelites repent in these lands that we were brought to as slaves will Yahawah forgive us and raise us back up to power. It is following the law that makes one perfect.

2nd Chronicles 6:36-38:
[36] "If they sin against thee, (for there is no man which sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a land far off or near;
[37] Yet if they bethink themselves in the land whither they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto thee in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done amiss, and have dealt wickedly;
[38] If they return to thee with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which thou gavest unto their fathers, and toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name".

Once we repent our sins are forgiven and washed away,

Acts 3:[19] "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord"; If you return to that same sin you are worthy of death,

Romans 1: [32] "Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them".

Romans 6: [23] "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord"

The price that you will pay for your sexually wickedness, stealing, cheating, lying, backbiting, mistreating the poor, disobeying parents is death unless you repent and not return to those ways. Yet if you repent and accept Yahawashi you can be saved,

Acts 16: [31] "And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house".

Yet you, must, you must first repent,

Acts 26: [20] "But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance".

Although the laws were only given to the nation of Israel we have failed to keep them which explain our being enslaved throughout the world today. We are still under Satan's authority.

Romans 9: [31] "But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness".

To all Israelites that received this message from the spirit of which it was written I say shalam.
