Holy Bible teaches us with the various aspects of human life. The dominion of SIN over human life is main focus in the Holy Bible, it is so widespread that sometimes it becomes difficult to understand the behaviour and deeds of human in their encountered situation. King David, who was chosen by Adonai Jehovah as a shepherd boy to rule over ISRAEL i.e. GOD’S own people. His life was full of ups and down where he prevailed by mercy of Elohim Jehovah. The more he reach far in his journey of life, the greater he realized the importance of Almighty GOD’s grace for an individual to sustain. He specifically mentioned in the book of Psalms, “For a day in your courts is better than is better than a thousand anywhere else. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my GOD, than to dwell in tents of wickedness”
It is very necessary for a believer to understand the trials and temptations purpose in one’s lives. One thing is very clear that GOD does not leads a man into temptation, the desires entice the spirit of lust which captures the human mind, combining thoughts and feelings to do an act of disobedience. This act of disobedience leads the evil one to blame us and demands immediate judgement to be executed upon us.
This vicious cycle of blaming upon us by the evil one was broken by precious blood of Lamb. Apostle John wrote: For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). Yeshua the Messiah has fulfilled the demand of immediate judgement by receiving penalty upon himself to save us from the heaps of our sins, inequities and wrong doings. The beautiful thing is not only past, present but also future sins, inequities and wrong doings are forgiven in Yeshua the Messiah. The only reason is not a liberty to do SIN again and again, but understand the divine eternal nature of tri-union GOD. Our GOD is eternity, he does not live in eternity.
We did not perform any merit work to receive any favour from Almighty Jehovah. It is because of HIS unconditional love that we have received GRACE thorough HIS son our Lord and Saviour: “YESHUA THE MESSIAH”. Yeshua is the heavenly Manna (Bread) given to us, so that we may have communion with Almighty Elohim Jehovah, thorough HIS SON: “YESHUA THE MESSIAH’s Flesh And Blood”. “YESHUA THE MESSIAH” on the night of BETRAYAL took the bread and drinking from the cup. The breaking of bread (Heavenly Manna) reveals, we have a divine purpose in our lives, which is revealed upon willful submission at feet of “YESHUA THE MESSIAH”. The blood has a special significance as we are in sinful world, by drinking the blood of LAMB - “YESHUA THE MESSIAH” we have to proclaim HIM by our actions, deeds and works.
We are called to do different works to edify the body of Christ thorough HOLY SPIRIT which is released upon us as a result of earnest prayer in wonderful name of Yeshua the Messiah.
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord the church :( Ephesians 5:25-29).
Further Apostle Paul has written:
For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator lives. Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ 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 God for us: Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entered into the holy place every year with blood of others; For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. (Hebrews 9:16-28)
