Jesus

to the mediator of a new covenant, Yeshua; and to the sprinkled blood that speaks better things than that of Hevel.

See that you don’t reject the One speaking! For if those did not escape who rejected him when he gave divine warning on earth, think how much less we will escape if we turn away from him when he warns from heaven.

Even then, his voice shook the earth; but now, he has made this promise: “One more time I will shake not only the earth, but heaven too!”

Therefore, we say with confidence, “Adonai is my helper; I will not be afraid — what can a human being do to me?”

Yeshua the Messiah is the same yesterday, today and forever.

So too Yeshua suffered death outside the gate, in order to make the people holy through his own blood.

Therefore, let us go out to him who is outside the camp and share his disgrace.

Through him, therefore, let us offer God a sacrifice of praise continually. For this is the natural product of lips that acknowledge his name.

The God of shalom brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep, our Lord Yeshua, by the blood of an eternal covenant.

May that God equip you with every good thing you need to do his will; and may he do in us whatever pleases him, through Yeshua the Messiah. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

From: Ya‘akov, a slave of God and of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah To: The Twelve Tribes in the Diaspora: Shalom!

Indeed that person should not think that he will receive anything from the Lord,

How blessed is the man who perseveres through temptation! For after he has passed the test, he will receive as his crown the Life which God has promised to those who love him.

Having made his decision, he gave birth to us through a Word that can be relied upon, in order that we should be a kind of firstfruits of all that he created.

My brothers, practice the faith of our Lord Yeshua, the glorious Messiah, without showing favoritism.

For the One who said, “Don’t commit adultery,” also said, “Don’t murder.” Now, if you don’t commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the Torah.

But the grace he gives is greater, which is why it says, “God opposes the arrogant, but to the humble he gives grace.”

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

Instead, you ought to say, “If Adonai wants it to happen, we will live” to do this or that.

Listen! The wages you have fraudulently withheld from the workers who mowed your fields are calling out against you, and the outcries of those who harvested have reached the ears of Adonai-Tzva’ot.

So, brothers, be patient until the Lord returns. See how the farmer waits for the precious “fruit of the earth” — he is patient over it until it receives the fall and spring rains.

You too, be patient; keep up your courage; for the Lord’s return is near.

Don’t grumble against one another, brothers, so that you won’t come under condemnation — look! the Judge is standing at the door!

As an example of suffering mistreatment and being patient, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of Adonai.

Look, we regard those who persevered as blessed. You have heard of the perseverance of Iyov, and you know what the purpose of Adonai was, that Adonai is very compassionate and merciful.
