Daily bread from the life of Y´shua

John 1:14

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Prior to the entry of the Messiah into Israel, many Jews believed in the Word of God. The Jewish Apostles John explained that Jesus is the Word of God, that had entered into the form of a man.  He did not exalt Him self above men, but pinched his tent among us and made the villages and town in Israel his dwelling place.  Tens of thousands of Jews saw His Glory, and experienced his unconditional love. Jesus was full of compassion for the lost  who did not deserve to be saved by Him.

The Old and the New Covenant

Deuteronomy 29:23
The whole land will be a burning waste of salt and sulfur—nothing planted, nothing sprouting, no vegetation growing on it. It will be like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in fierce anger.

Matthew 11:23
And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the skies? No, you will go down to the depths. If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day.

The Old and the New Covenant

Esther 4:14
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?”

John 15:12-14
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command.

Mordecai gave Queen Esther a challenge. If you do not take this opportunity to save your people, you and your relatives are going to perish. The Jewish lady was ready to scarify her life in a bid to save millions of Jews from being slaughtered in a possible genocide, that would have been as bad as the Holocaust.  In such an act of love for her own people, Esther walked in the likeness of Jesus the Messiah. He did not only lay down His life for His own people, but for the redemption of the whole Human race. Jesus is greater then Esther. He rose from the dead, and we are called to walk in the power of His resurrection.

Daily bread from the life of Y´shua

John 2: 23:25

Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the miraculous signs he was doing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all men. He did not need man’s testimony about man, for he knew what was in a man.

The Messiah did not only celebrate passover on the day of His death on the cross. Jesus was a Torah observant Jew, and participated in all the Jewish feasts in Jerusalem. The Messiah did not trust men. It was the presence of God in the city of David that drove Him to the City of His Fathers house. Many Jews who heard Him believed Him, and put their trust in him.
