WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?

Today a sister with experience in the garment industry and a brother were discussing linen. Linen is used 74 times in the old covenant and 16 times in the new covenant. I was like most people I thought cotton was the most breathable and wicked moisture the best but no our sister in the garment industry and brother note linen is the best but more expensive.Joseph was arrayed in fine linen by Pharaoh.

Gen 41: v39. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as Yahweh hath shewed thee all this, [there is] none so discreet and wise as thou [art:]

V40. Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.

V41. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.

V42. And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.

Moses was given instructions from our Creator to prepare the tabernacle in the wilderness as well as the veil to the Holy of Holies.

Exo 26: v1. Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle [with] ten curtains [of] fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: [with] cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.

V31. And thou shalt make a vail [of] blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made:

 V33. And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches ( hooks ), that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy [place] and the most holy.

The linen veil was also symbolic of our Creator.

Mat 27: v51. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

V50. Messiah, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the spirit.

Heb 10: v20. By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

Moses was also given detailed instructions about preparing holy garments for the initial high priest Aaron in the tabernacle.

Exo 28: v4. And these [are] the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me (Yahweh our Creator) in the priest’s office.

V5. And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.

V6. And they shall make the ephod [of] gold, [of] blue, and [of] purple, [of] scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.

V15. And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning (detailed plan), work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; [of] gold, [of] blue, and [of] purple, and [of] scarlet, and [of] fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.

V29. And Aaron shall bear the names of the children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when he goeth in unto the holy [place,] for a memorial before Yahweh continually.

V30. And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron’s heart, when he goeth in before Yahweh: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of Israel upon his heart before Yahweh continually.

V39. And thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen, and thou shalt make the mitre [of] fine linen, and thou shalt make the girdle [of] needlework.

V42. And thou shalt make them linen breeches to cover their nakedness (privates,shame,sin) from the loins even unto the thighs they shall reach.

King David danced before our Creator (the Yahweh of the old Covenant).

2Sa 6: v14. And David danced before Yahweh with all [his] might; and David [was] girded with a linen ephod (priestly garment).

Ezekiel mentions priests in the future millennial Temple wearing linen (probably the 144k Saints in spiritual bodies assuming a human shape) to minister to YahwehZidkenu (Our Creator in a spiritual body probably assuming a physical shape as he did with his disciples after his resurrection).

Ezk 44: v17. And it shall come to pass, [that] when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.

V18. They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird [themselves] with any thing that causeth sweat (you have to keep your cool when appearing before the Creator of everything!)

V19. And when they go forth into the utter (outer) court, [even] into the utter court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall put on other garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their garments.

Levite singers were arrayed white linen. 2Ch 5: v12. Also the Levites [which were] the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, [being] arrayed in white linen.

Daniel and John saw visions of Angels in white linen regarding the end times.

 Dan 12: v7. And I heard the man clothed in linen, which [was] upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that [it shall be] for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these [things] shall be finished

Rev 15: v6. And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

Linen was seen on rich people as well as the false assemblies (harlots).

Luk 16: v19. There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

Rev 17: v4. And the woman (false assembly) was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup (pretty on the outside but not on the inside) in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

V5. And upon her forehead [was] a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.           

She may even have Yahweh on her forehead!     

Isa 66: v5. Hear the word of YahwehShua (future end times) ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake (YahwehShua), said, “Let  Yahweh be glorified”: but he (YahwehShua) shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed .

It looks like in the end times the false Messiah is going to call himself the son of Yahweh.    

They will hate the name YahwehShua and will be ashamed (unclothed, unmasked sin) when he (YahwehShua)  appears at the seventh Trump to gather the 144 thousand true Saints!

Filthy garments can represent sin, such as when our Creator took on the sin of the world (past,present, future). Likewise, being unclothed or naked can represent sin.

Zec 3: v3. Now Joshua (human name of our Creator defiled by sin) was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.

V4. And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.

V5. And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of Yahweh stood by.

Rev 16: v15. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed [is] he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame (sin).

Saints will be arrayed in white linen.

Rev 19: v8. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of Saints.

V9. And he saith unto me, write, Blessed [are] they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, these are the true sayings of YahwehShua.

V14. And the armies [which were] in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Rev 7: v14. And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Much overcoming the adversary (tribulation) and repentance (blood of  Messiah) is required to enter the Kingdom.

Act 14: v22. Confirming the souls of the disciples, [and] exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of YahwehShua.

 Rev 7: v15. Therefore are they before the throne of YahwehShua, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.  

How do you get white linen clothing and be one of the Saints? Assuming you have been baptized in the name YahwehShua and have had hands laid on you by an elder, you make your clothing white by repenting every day and overcoming the adversary as noted in Revelation chapters one through three. If you are successful by the seventh trumpet when YahwehShua returns you will be given your white linen or marriage garments for the marriage supper. You have to have the right garments for the wedding supper!

Mat 22: v11. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

V12. And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

What are you wearing?

THE LAST SUPPER (The night he was betrayed) SCRIPTURES

The following are beautiful scriptures to meditate on prior to Messiah’s Last Supper and the preparation day.  Prior to your keeping of this sacred event however, it is required that you be immersed in the name of YahwehShua and have hands laid upon you by an elder in the faith.

Messiah

A sister shared these scriptures with our small flock prior to our Passover service.  The Passover or Last Supper is when our Creator performed the greatest act of kindness of all time.  He sacrificed himself at the direction of the Father to absorb all sin (past, present and future).

Isa 53: v1. Who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Yahweh revealed

V2. For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, [there is] no beauty (unlike most pictures)that we should desire him.

V3. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were [our] faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

V4. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of Yahweh (the father), and afflicted.

V5. But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

V6. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Yahweh (Father) hath laid on him the iniquity (sin) of us all.

V7. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

V8. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? For he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

V9. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither [was any] deceit in his mouth

V10. Yet it pleased the Father (Yahweh) to bruise him; he hath put [him] to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of the (Son) Yahweh shall prosper in his hand

Jhn 13: v1. Now before the feast of the passover (preparation day before Feast of Unleavened bread sometimes called Feast of Passover), when Messiah knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

V2. And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s [son,] to betray him;

V3. Messiah knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from Yahweh the Father, and went to Yahweh the Father;

V4. He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

V5. After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe [them] with the towel wherewith he was girded.

1Co 11: v20. When ye come together therefore into one place, [this] is not to eat the YahwehShua’s supper.

V21. For in eating every one taketh before [other] his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

V22. What? Have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the Assembly of be YahwehShua, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I praise [you] not.

V23. For I have received of YahwehShua that which also I delivered unto you, That YahwehShua the [same] night in which he was betrayed took bread:

V24. And when he had given thanks, he brake [it,] and said, Take, eat: this is my body (eat/absorb his spiritual body), which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

V25. After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood (spiritual blood=Holy Spirit) this do ye, as oft as ye drink [it,] in remembrance of me.

Luk 22: v15. And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover (future Passover meal 24 hours later when he is already dead) with you before I suffer:

V16. For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of Yahweh (future Millennium).

V17. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide [it] among yourselves:

V18. For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of Yahweh shall come.

V19. And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake [it,] and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

V20. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup [is] the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Jhn 15: v12. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

V13. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

V14. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

V15. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

V16. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father (in the future after Pentacost) in my name(YahwehShua), he may give it you.

V17. These things I command you, that ye love one another.

V18. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you.

V19. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

V20. Remember the word that I said unto you, the servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

V21. But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.

Mt.26:26 And as they were eating, Yahshua took bread, and blessed [it], and brake [it], and gave [it] to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

V27. And he took the dip, and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

V28. For this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

V29. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.

V30. And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives.

HalleluYahwehShua!

The Last Supper

The last supper is the night Messiah was betrayed, at the end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th. He was placed on the tree at 9:00 a.m. on the daylight portion of the 14th and died at 3:00 p.m. on the daylight portion of the 14th, at the same time the Passover lambs were being slaughtered. At the end of the 14th, i.e. sunset, is when the Israelites went to their homes and were admonished not to leave until morning.

Messiah

Exo 12: v22. And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that [is] in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that [is] in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

How can we prove that the last supper is not the first day of the feast of unleavened bread using scriptures? Much confusion abounds due to inaccurate translations.

Exodus, chapter 12, shows that the lamb was set aside on the 10th day, fed water and then killed on the day portion of the 14th.  At the same time, the blood was placed on the door, the Israelites were admonished to stay in their homes until morning. Some have difficulty with verse six where it says to kill the lamb in the evening. In  Hebrew, between the evenings actually means from high noon to when the sun is going down. The Passover is the preparation day where the 1-year-old lamb without blemish is slaughtered at 3:00 p.m. Notice verse 15 and verse 18 which says to eat unleavened bread for 7 days from the 14th through the 21st. If you eat unleavened bread from the start of the 14th through the 21st that would be 8 days, therefore clearly the scriptures are saying at the end of the 14th, i.e. the 15th, the first day of the  feast of unleavened bread is when you start eating unleavened bread.

Did our Creator sin when he had the last supper and left the house before morning when he went to the garden of Gethsemane? Yahweh forbid! The last supper was at the sunset, or end of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th. Days begin at sunset and end at the following sunset. 

Genesis 1:16 The sun rules the day and the moon the lesser light rules the night.     

Leviticus 23:32 proves a day lasts from even to even, i.e., sunset to sunset.  Thus, when the sun (which rules the day) falls below the horizon at sunset the new day has begun.

The last supper was with leavend bread and new wine (unfermented grape juice) after sunset on the 13th (beginning of the 14th). The feast of unleavened bread Day 1 was on the 15th after sunset and was with unleavened bread and old wine (fermented grape juice). The preparation day or Passover was not a high holy day however, the 15th or feast of unleavened bread day one is a high holiday requiring a holy convocation.

The Father and Son planned his perfect sacrifice to absorb all sin (past present and future). I believe the preparation day, while not a high holy day, is beyond an annual High Holy day in its significance. It's the greatest event of all time which guarantees every bit of creation an endless life in in the new heavens and earth. Our Creator asked us to keep the last supper in remembrance of him. The leavened  bread signifies a portIon of his own spiritual body (assembly) and the juice his spiritual blood (Holy Spirit or Spirit of Messiah).

The last supper looks forward to Pentecost when the disciples would receive the Holy Spirit and be part of the first fruits.

Luk 24: v49. And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

Leviticus 23:17 mentions two wave loaves baked with leaven and are called first fruits. It also looks forward to the two witnesses which are part of the 144,000, likely the first two to be resurrected at the seventh trumpet.  See Rev. 11:11-12.

After being baptized and having hands laid on you, you are begotten and receive a down payment of the spirit of Messiah. In this life you're in the spiritual womb, so to speak . As you overcome, the spirit of Messiah matures in you .     

Gal 4: v19. My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Messiah be formed in you. 

Revelation, chapters 1-3, emphasizes the importance of repentance and overcoming to the 7 assemblies (the small flocks or assemblies being perfected).  If fully formed by the time of the seventh trumpet you truly will be “born again” into a spiritual body and be with our Creator eternally.

Who Is Melchizedek?

He is mentioned in Genesis 14:18- 20 as priest of the most high Yahweh (the Father). He is also mentioned when Abram gave him a free will offering or tithe (10%) of the spoils.

Gen 14: v18. And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he [was] the priest of the most high Yahweh the Father.

V19. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be] Abram of the most high Yahweh the Father, possessor of heaven and earth:

V20. And blessed be the most high Yahweh the Father, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.

Ps. 110:4  Yahweh (the Father) has sworn and will not repent.  Thou art a priest forever of the order of Melchizedek.

Paul gives further insight in Hebrews 7:3 “Without father without mother [without  genealogy], without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life, but made like unto the son of Yahweh; abideth a priest continually.     

Heb 7:15-16 “And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest, who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.”

The only two beings to live forever are the Father and his Son, who is carrying out the plan of the Father from the very beginning. All creation, including the angels, all humans, as well as the seen and unseen world has a beginning and an end. No one has ever seen the Father except the Son; therefore Melchisedek (the Son) was seen by Abram.

Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego saw our Creator in the furnace.  Daniel, chapter 3:25, Nebuchadnezzar said        “Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of Yahweh”.

Messiah came in the flesh for one purpose: to take on the sin of the seen and unseen world and effectively canceling the day of coverings from that point forward.  Hebrews chapter 10: 5 reads “Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body thou has prepared me.” This greatest act of all time took on all sin, past present and future, and guarantees every bit of creation an endless life in in the new heavens and new earth.  At that time, the kingdom is turned over to the Father after everything is physically and spiritually cleansed.

The only two eternal beings until the new heavens and earth are the Father and the Son. Everything else is created and will have an end until the new heavens and new earth. It is a great plan.  Nothing has been left to chance and nothing is going to stop this plan from coming to fruition.  The Son is the Alpha and Omega and will carry out the plan perfectly at the direction of the Father.

For more details about the original high priest Melchizedek, please read the following beautiful article by Bob Bondurant posted on our website under News on July 2nd, 2018.

WHAT'S ON YOUR MITRE?

Aaron, the high priest of the old covenant, had to have a mitre on his head before entering the Holy of Holies.

Exodus 28:36-38 “And thou shall make a plate of pure gold engrave upon it like the engravings of a signet Holiness to Yahweh. and thou shall put it on a blue lace that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.  And it shall be upon Aaron's forehead that Aaron may bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall hallow and all their holy gifts and it shall be always upon his forehead that they may be accepted before Yahweh.”

He also had to wash his flesh in water and put on holy garments.

Lev 16:4 “He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen britches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water and so put them on.”

Everything (the tabernacle, holy garments, etc.) were done according to a detailed pattern given to Moses from our Creator.

Ex 25:9 “According to all that I show thee after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall you make it.”

This physical tabernacle and high priest are merely a copy of the true Holy of Holies in heaven.

Heb 9:24 “For YahwehShua is not entered into the holy places made with hands which are the figures of the true but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of Yahweh the Father for us.”

The old physical covenant could only purify or protect the flesh, whereas the new purifies the mind. As a sister once told me “I don't want to hear about the physical I want to hear about the spiritual.”

Heb 9:13-14 “For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctify to the purifying of the flesh (body): How much more shall the blood of Messiah who through the eternal spirit offered himself up without spot to Yahweh to purge your conscience (mind) from dead works to serve the living YahwehShua.”

Ex 28:34-35 “A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about. And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goes into the holy place before Yahweh (Son) and when he comes out that he die not.”

The old covenant Israelites could only know that Aaron was alive while in the physical Holy of Holies because of the sound of the bell that he wore.  The Israelites could not enter in themselves.  However, in the new covenant we have access to the true holy of holies of the Father in heaven through his Son.

Heb 10:20 “By a new and living way which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say his flesh.”

The scriptures say we must be baptized in the name (not names) of the Father and the Son.

Math 28:19 “Go you therefore and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son” (Some scholars say Holy spirit, but that was not in the original scriptures).

The name YahwehShua contains the name of Father Yahweh and the resurrected Messiah, his son YahwehShua. You will receive a down payment of the spirit of YahwehShua once you are baptized and have hands laid on you by an elder.

If you want ultimate access to the throne room of the Father Yahweh through his son YahwehShua, then you must have the right name on your forehead (mind). Aaron, a physical priest, had the name Yahweh on his mitre, i.e, on his forehead as a figure of the future having YahwehShua on your mind! There is no ultimate access without it. What's on your mitre?
