The just shall live by
Faith
"(23) Here is what Adonai says:
“The wise man should not boast of his wisdom,
the powerful should not boast of his power,
the wealthy should not boast of his wealth;
(24) instead, let the boaster boast about this:
that he understands and knows me —
that I am Adonai, practicing grace,
justice and righteousness in the land;
for in these things I take pleasure,” says Adonai." – Yirmeyahu 9:23-24

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord Adonai Elohim is upon me, because Adonai has
commanded me to announce the good news (Gospel of JESUS) to the poor and
brokenhearted. He has sent me to proclaim freedom to the captives (of judaizing
bullies), to let out into light those bound in the dark. (i)
And YHVH said to me, “Before I formed you in your mother’s womb, I knew you; before you were born, I separated you for myself. I have appointed you to proclaim to the people and the nations. (ii)
As it is written in the words Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah):
And YHVH said to me, “Before I formed you in your mother’s womb, I knew you; before you were born, I separated you for myself. I have appointed you to proclaim to the people and the nations. (ii)

But for those of you who oppress, berate, abuse and even
bully my children I warn you, says the Lord, REPENT. For unless you repent
(change, turn about) and become like little children [trusting, lowly, loving,
forgiving], you can never enter the kingdom of heaven [at all]. (iii)
JESUS says to all who read this “Come to me! Do not reject my Gospel” iv):
“30 Come to me all of you who are struggling and burdened, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30 CJB
There are not 10, but actually some 613 rabbinical Commandments, and no one can keep them all.
But wait... There be but ONE Commandment!
THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH
It is interesting to find in the Old Testament that:
David reduced the 613 laws to 11 (Psalm 15).
Isaiah reduced them to 6 (Isaiah 33:15).
Micah reduced the 6 to 3 (Micah 6:8).
Once again, Isaiah brought the 3 down to 2 (Isaiah 56:1).
And, finally, Habakkuk reduced them all to one: "The just shall live by faith" (Habakkuk 2:4).
But now, in the pages of the New Testament, we learn that the scribes were teaching that Moses had received 613 laws. How wholly hypocritical of those Torah-teachers and the P’rushim! Woe indeed to the Parush who boast: ‘O God! I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity — greedy, dishonest, immoral, or like this tax-collector!' (or those evil non-sacred namers, who disobey your many laws)
Matthew 5:17-18, not one yod or stroke shall pass away from my Law, "The just shall live by faith" (Habakkuk 2:4)
Hallelu-YAH, there be FREEDOM in Jesus Christ / Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Rabbi Yeshua Bar Yosef) Praise G-d (Christ) Almighty, Hallelu-YAH!
A Christian is a Christian not because he / she follows the "Organized Religious Order's" edicts, but simply, very, very simply because he / she has turned his / her life over to the Lordship and Saving Grace of:
Jesus Christ / Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Rabbi Yeshua Bar Yosef),
PERIOD!

“No Jesus, NO peace” and yet, “Know
Jesus, KNOW peace”
How does one get to “know” Jesus? Simple, invite Him into your heart, as Jesus
says: “Here I am! I stand at the
door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and
eat with him, and he with me.” [Revelations 3:20 NIV] How can we be assured that this Jesus stuff
means anything, anything at all? Well
because the Bible tells us so, as the Apostle Paul wrote:
“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with
your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” [Romans 10:9-10 NIV]
And for those of you who say to me, I can’t be bothered
reading the Bible, “it’s confusing” or “it’s a waste of my time”, may I draw
your attention to what the Bible says about wisdom: “The fear of the LORD is
the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” [Proverbs 9:10 NIV]
If nothing else, PLEASE read two chapters from the Bible –
(don’t own one, sorry NO excuse, if you’re reading this, you can access this: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203:16&version=NIV)
John 3 and John 14!
John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world that he gave his
one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have
eternal life.”
And John 14:6 says: “Jesus answered, “I
am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except
through me.”
Well that’s it, that’s Da Bauz’s Take on, “The just shall
live by Faith” – this 22nd day of May
