Dear Brothers and Sisters in IAUA (ee-ah-oo-ah) our Father,

Greetings on this day of preparation for the weekly Sabbath. I pray this newsletter finds you in good health and happy in the service of IAUA. This is the 11th day of the 13th month of the Biblical Calendar in the estimated year 6020 Anno Mundi.

The Spring Sabbaths begin in 4 weeks and 4 days on the 15th day of the 1st month (Wednesday, April 12th of the 2017, Gregorian Calendar, at sunset Tuesday, April 11th).

On God's Calendar the Biblical month begins on the global day after lunar conjunction. The Biblical year begins with God's New Year's Day (Passover) after the spring equinox (Spring Passover Rule). The Millerite Calendar (Spring New Moon Rule) is the same this year. The Calculated Rabbinical Calendar is a day early.


The continuing email discussions have drifted from focus on the word Godhead to a focus on being Jewish.

Perhaps the statements below are the best way to say that God can make Himself known in the person of a human being because, as He said about an angel; "My SPIRIT is in Him."

If, as some say, "God is a Spirit," then it would seem that, because God is the power that sustains all life that we little humans know about, or think we do, then it would seem that the OT understanding of the "Ruach Elohim, the Spirit of God can be manifested in any way that the Godhead decides to manifest Itself in. Is there such a thing as "the mystery of God?"

It seems to me, as a lowly Jewish Chrstian, that "Christians" are still doing their best to argue with the Jews about who God is. Christians are still, by not paying attention to what Christ meant when He said that, "I and My Father are One," we are still trying to make Yeshua (Jesus) less an observant Jew than He in fact was.

"Christians do not want to "do and observe all things whatsoever I (He, as God) have commanded you. it's almost as though Christians feel this need to take Christ out of where He came from, and set Him up as an enemy of Himself. In effect, wasn't this really what the great Greek philosophers wanted to do when they resisted the apostle, Paul's teaching? We seem to forget that Christ "laid aside His Divinity and lowered Himself become like as we are." God came down here and dwelt, as a human being, among us. He had/and has that Power.

We all, me included, need to do a search bar for the following, and listen to the song: YouTube Central Synagogue, "Sanctuary" Shaker humn, by Cantor Julia Cudrain. "God isn't limited to any one particular physical space. God exists in the spaces between people and in the relationships that we have with each other."

Through His sacred Torah, He invites us to become echad, united with Him.

Here is what the greatest modern-day prophet, Ellen White, had to say about this whole syntactic mess in the May 25, 1875 article in Review and Herald: "Christians who extol Christ but array themselves against the regulations governing the Jewish Church, array Christ against Christ."

Time fo get back on board that old Jew Train, boys, or you'll get' de-railed. Not Bob Dylan. My own original words.

I'll write a poem with those words, and, perhaps you, Frank, can write a new old song. maybe, we could sell it and make a good buck or two.

Love in Yeshua's Name,

Ron

Ron,

You persist in holding up Jews/Judaism as the example for us to follow. There is a lot of tradition in Judaism that is not Biblical. It is true there is much in Christianity that is not Biblical. Neither is particularly better or worse. The Jews seem to be ignorant of our current prophetic context. Christians seem to be ignorant of our Hebrew roots. Adventist are more knowledgeable about our current prophetic context. The better way is to follow all the Bible and only the Bible. I call this Hebrew. I am not Jewish, Messianic, or Christian. I do not hold any of these up as an example. I hold up only the Example as our example.

John 13:15 I have given you an example. You should do as I have done to you.

He was not Jewish, particularly in the modern sense. He was a Hebrew in the true sense. He did as He instructed us to do.

John 10:27 My sheep listen to my voice. I know them and they follow me.

You implied a quote in saying, "Ruach Elohim, the Spirit of God can be manifested in any way that the Godhead decides to manifest Itself in. Is there such a thing as "the mystery of God?"

I do not see this in the Bible or EGW. The word Spirit can be confusing. It simply means wind, breathe, air, or space. All living beings are described as spirits. All but the Holy Spirit are confined to a physical body. The Holy Spirit is primarily invisible but can manifest in a form of light according to the Bible. The phrase "like a dove" does not mean the form of a dove. I believe it is clearly a form of light that looks like a bright white dove. "Like fire" means light that looks like fire.

The possessive sense of the phrase "Spirit of the Godhead" does not mean that either the Father or the Son splits into a spirit separated from the body. Such a belief leads directly to spiritualism. The words "My Spirit" are the same as "my wife" it does not mean it is not a separate person.

God the Father is a physical person no man has ever seen.

God the Son is a physical person who is now a human being just like us but is also still God.

God the Spirit is a person that is an invisible presence who is the only member of the Godhead who can be everywhere at once.

Each of the three members of the Godhead is a person with a personality and unique characteristics. I can make this a full lengthy Bible study and provide example Bible references for each point, if needed. Those who know all of their Bible well can probably recognize the reference for most of the points immediately.

Be at peace,

There are so many details and there is so much confusion. Nobody understands perfectly or can express every detail perfectly, including me. We struggle onward with God's guidance, which will be sufficient.

Do you continue sharing and seeking a deeper understanding?

I pray we may all continue to seek love, peace, and unity in truth preparing for the soon coming of IAUShUO (ee-ah-oo-shoo-oh) Messiah, the Son of God.
