MASHIACH IS THE JUDGE
All it takes is ONE sin. Ever disobeyed your parents? That’s one, BINGO, your done, blotted out of His book. Totally separated from your Creator. Which means Torment forever. Are YOU listening?
Listen closely to His Words and ask Him what He would have you do.
And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time; and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to reproaches and everlasting abhorrence. And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn the many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
(Daniel 12:1-3 [JPS])
Notice very carefully that it says “Every one who is found written in the book.”
From the very beginning, the Tanach (Jewish Bible) promised a Mashiach in Gen. 3:15.
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; they shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise their heel.’ (Genesis 3:15 [JPS])
A Savior for both Jews and Gentiles. Yea, He saith: ‘It is too light a thing that thou shouldest be My servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the offspring of Israel; I will also give thee for a light of the nations, that My salvation may be unto the end of the earth.’ (Isaiah 49:6 [JPS])
The Tanach reveals over 65 distinctives of the Mashiach. He would be from the tribe of Judah But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days. (Micah 5:1 [JPS]), the family of David. Behold, the days come, saith HaShem, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, HaShem is our righteousness. (Jeremiah 23:5-6 [JPS]),
and born of a virgin. Behold, the days come, saith HaShem, that I will raise unto David a righteous shoot, and he shall reign as king and prosper, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called, HaShem is our righteousness.
(Jeremiah 23:5-6 [JPS]). ‘Who would have believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of HaShem been revealed? For he shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; he had no form nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, nor beauty that we should delight in him. He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with disease, and as one from whom men hide their face: he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely our diseases he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem him stricken, smitten of G-d, and afflicted. But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and HaShem hath made to light on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, though he humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yea, he opened not his mouth. By oppression and judgment he was taken away, and with his generation who did reason? for he was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. And they made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich his tomb; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.’ (Isaiah 53:1-9 [JPS]) as an atoning sacrifice BEFORE the destruction of the Temple by the Romans in AD 70. He would be resurrected, For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. (Psalms 16:10 [JPS])
Did you know that in Jeremiah 31:30 God says He will seal a new covenant with the House of Israel?
