One New Man

 According to the New Testament “Church” doctrine, there are no Jews or Greeks (ref Galatians 3:28). Rather, all of us are now “One New Man” (ref. Eph. 2:15). Thus, we may be described as a collection of persons who no longer have an ethnicity, race, or history; therefore, we are not connected to what is written in the Torah and the Prophets. What a way to eliminate confusion! The "Old Man" is dead and buried, along with his six thousand years of history, kingdoms, and calling - to have dominion over all living things.  What a relief, not to have to contend with all the competition in the world of religion!  We only have to live out this life, as best we can, and wait to be clothed with a “New Creation body”.   

According to “One New Man” theology, we will eventually live in a 'new creation' world, as the old will be consumed by the fires of YHVH’s judgments.  This really makes things much simpler, as we only have to endure our time in this DNA body until it returns to clay or dust. Our soul/spirit returns to the Creator until such a time as He brings us back in this new body.  

This, of course, is an oversimplification of the Christian belief, but realistically, in the days we are living in, much is happening to humanity and to YHVH’s set-apart covenantal descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.  The Messiah will see to it that every dot and tittle of His living Word, spoken through Moses and the prophets, will come to full fruition at the end of this age.   "Wait for it; it will surely happen" (Habakkuk 2:3), as is written in the Torah and the Prophets, but not as reinterpreted by some.

Many are claiming to be “watchmen”, but what are they watching for? A watchman is an observer, a witness, and a fore-warner. Psalm 107 presents several examples of what we are to "say" when we observe YHVH's works - that is, what He has done or is doing. Yes, that means we are to tell of His lovingkindness to the sons of men (see verses 1,8,15,21,31).

^"Therefore thus says YHVH, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: 'Jacob shall not now be ashamed, nor shall his face now turn pale; But when he sees his children, the work of My hands, in his midst, they will sanctify My name'; Indeed, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob and will stand in awe of the Elohim of Israel” (Isaiah 29:22-23 emphasis added).  

“The works of His hands are truth and justice; All His precepts are sure.   They are upheld forever and ever; They are performed in truth and uprightness.  He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; Holy and awesome is His name” (Psalm 111:7-9 emphasis added).

The entire Bible demonstrates the works of YHVH’s hands, especially in keeping covenants and promises to His firstborn. Do you know who the redeemed of YHVH are?  They are those who are returning to Zion (ref. Isaiah 34:10). This is in keeping with the first covenant which He made with our forefathers and mothers. Yeshua came to restore the House of Jacob, bring back the tribes that belong to that house, and in them, set up His everlasting Kingdom (see Luke 1:33). These are the works of Yeshua’s hands, but who is “saying so”?   ^"Let the redeemed of YHVH say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary, and gathered from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south" (Psalm 107:2-3).

What are we to say when we witness the works of His hands?  Check out the previous verse: "Oh give thanks to YHVH, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting" (Psalm 107:1). If you need more practice, read Psalm 136.

Only a redeemed watchman is qualified to observe, warn, and bear witness to the reality of prophecies that are being fulfilled by Yeshua right before our eyes. "Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness, who seek YHVH: Look to the rock from which you were hewn and to the quarry from which you were dug. Look to Abraham your father and to Sarah who gave birth to you in pain; When he was but one I called him, then I blessed him and multiplied him." (Isaiah 51:1-2 emphases added).  If you are seeking after YHVH's righteousness, you will not believe lies about the multitude of the seed that YHVH sowed in the field.  In doing so, He did not violate His law, according to which sowing more than one kind of seed in the same field is prohibited (ref. Leviticus 19:19). Yeshua exemplifies this in the parable of the wheat and the tares (see Matt, 13:24-30).  Are we harvesting wheat along with the tares and calling it "one new man"?
