Notes for Entering the Kingdom

Being Ready for the Kingdom
Daniel, Sukkot, YAHUAH’S BIG tent
–
Child like Faith
– At the same time came the disciples unto Yahusha, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Yahusha called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted (turned, or repented), and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 18:1-4
–
Who wants in? Israelite’s leaving Egypt (they all thought…)
–
Wherefore (as the Ruach Ha’Qodesh (Holy Spirit) says, Today if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation (testing) in the wilderness: When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
IVRIYM (HEBREWS) 3:7-11 את CEPHER
For if Yahusha the son of Nun had given them rest, perchance another would speak again of this day. There remains therefore a Shabbath for the people of Elohiym. For he that is entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as Elohiym did from his. Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
IVRIYM (HEBREWS) 4:8-11 את CEPHER

Let us take this walk seriously.
–
It begins with faith in the true Lamb (not false version)
- John 14:6
- Isaiah 53
  –
We must with Repenting
- In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea. And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Adonai, make his paths straight.
  Matthew 3:1-3
  - Have we truly repented?
    - Lingering sin?
Matt 7 & 5
–
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
- Who can name off the 10 commandments?
- Yahusha simplifies them into two (the Torah explains the how)
- In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will Elohim appoint for walls and bulwarks. Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in.
  Isaiah 26:1-2
  –
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of Elohim: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of Elohim, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the Torah: for sin is the transgression of the Torah.
1 John 3:1-4

This is our definition of sin.

And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abides in him sins not: whosoever sins hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children (there it is again), let no man deceive you: he that does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
1 John 3:5-7

What is the scriptural definition of righteousness?

And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before Yahuah our Elohim, as he hath commanded us
Deuteronomy 6:25

He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Elohim was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of Elohim does not commit sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of Elohim. In this the children of Elohim are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever does not righteousness is not of Elohim, neither he that loves not his brother.
1 John 3:8-10
