Hello, my name is Dirk.

Now I am going to explain the third reason why Yahushua came here.  The first reason being that Yahushua came so that our death penalty can be nailed on the stake and the second reason is that Yahushua came to make sure we knew that the Torah was still for today.  Now I am going to explain the third reason why Yahushua came which is written in the next verse.

Slide: Matthew 15:24—And He answered, said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Yisrael.”

Did you see the verse where Yahushua said, “I come for the lost sheep of the house of Israel”?   I will elaborate more about this in later vlogs but this is a very condensed version focusing on the reason why Yahushua came—which is for the lost sheep of the House of Israel.

In our world, one of world strongest religion is christianity. This is true, however, where is the House of Israel?  If you are thinking, Jews are the House of Israel, which is not correct.  Like I said, I will explain more.  The Jews are not the House of Israel. The Jews are from the southern kingdom of Judah.

To give you history in few words, Israel was divided in two kingdoms, the northern kingdom and the southern kingdom.   The southern Kingdom is the House of Judah and is known today as the Jews.  The northern kingdom is known as the House of Israel. They were destroyed because of their disobedience against YHWH.  History in few words!

However, Yahushua came for the lost sheep—meaning they are gone, we do not know where they are–of the House of Israel.  Where is Christianity in this picture?  Something for you to think about.   Let us proceed to the next verse explaining more about this.

Slide: Matthew 10:5— יהושע sent these twelve out, having commanded them, saying, “Do not go into the way of the gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Shomeronites,

Matthew 10:6—but rather go to the lost sheep of house of Yisrael

Where did Yahushua send his 12 disciples?  “go to the lost sheep of house of Yisrael.  Yahushua told them not to go by the way of gentiles or to the Samarians.  Go only to the lost sheep of house of Israel.  Where is Christianity?  Nowhere, the focus was to that house of Israel.

Yahushua emphasized about the lost sheep in John 10:16.

Slide: John 10:16— “And other sheep I have which are not of this fold – I have to bring them as well, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one flock, one shepherd.

Yahushua said “I have other sheep, not in this fold, I have to bring them so that there will be one flock, and one shepherd.”  The other sheep are where?  Lost, so they need to be sought out and found.  Then bring them which mean that there will be one flock and one shepherd.  Remember I explained to you briefly in the beginning of the video about the two kingdoms, the north and south.  Both were divided and the north kingdom disappeared now we have to look and find where they are then bring them back so that they will become one flock again.  This means that the house of Judah, the Jews, will join again with the house of Israel—the people who believe in Yahushua and obey the Torah doing the YHWH’s commandments.

Yahushua made it clear when he spoke to the Jews saying “since you do not believe, they are not of my sheep.”  Read John 10:26.

Slide: John 10:26-27— “But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.  My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

The situation that occurred during this verse has to do with Jews asking Yahushua if he was the messiah, and if so, why doesn’t he let them know.   Yahushua’s response was what I do here in my Father’s name, you should already know but because you do not believe, then you are not my sheep.  He made it even clearer, my sheep know me and I know my sheep.  I want to make it plainly clear that the reason Yahushua came was for the lost sheep of house of Israel not christianity.  This means that the people who believe in Yahushua the Messiah and obey the Father’s commandments—Torah, are of the house of Israel.

Now some of you might not agree with me and say what about Paul going out to preach to the gentiles?  I understand this issue, I want to discuss this further after reading the following verse and discuss the situation that transpired between Shaul (you know him as Paul and Barnabas) and the Jews in that verse.

Slide: Acts 13:46-47— But speaking boldly, Sha’ul and Barnaḇah said, “It was necessary that the word of Elohim should be spoken to you first, but since you thrust it away, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, see, we turn to the gentiles.  “For so the Master has commanded us, ‘I have set you to be a light to the gentiles, that you should be for deliverance to the ends of the earth.’ ”

The situation that occurred with Shaul and Barnabas occurred during one Sabbath. Shaul and Barnabas were preaching and there were a great deal of people who came to listen to them.  The Jews were enraged to jealousy.   What happened in the verses has to do with Shaul and Barnabas’s response.  “Because you rejected Yahushua” (basically to sum it up it was their rejection of Yahushua) “ you will not have everlasting life.  Now we will turn to the gentiles because YHWH commanded us to be a light to the gentiles.”

Does this mean that Israel is no more?  No, remember what I said to you earlier about the north kingdom which is the House of Israel.  Where are they?  We know they are lost.  Does this mean they are somewhere together or dispersed everywhere?   I will explain more about this later but basically the north kingdom—the house of Israel was dispersed all over the world and no one knows where they are, they are gone.   What they have become are gentiles.

Paul or rather Shaul is being sent to go to the gentiles and who is there?  The house of Israel.  The situation that Shaul and Barnabas spoke those words was written many years ago as a prophecy.  Read Isaiah 49:6, please read it now.

Slide: Isaiah 49:6— and He says, “Shall it be a small matter for You to be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Yaʽaqoḇ, and to bring back the preserved ones of Yisra’ĕl? And I shall give You as a light to the gentiles, to be My deliverance to the ends of the earth!”

In the verses in Acts 13:47 and Isaiah 49:6 both have the same verses in it—will be a light to the gentiles for deliverance.  What happened is not new, Paul did not start something new.  It was already planned long time ago. To bring back the people (the lost sheep) of the house of Israel back.  This is Yahushua’s purpose when he came here.

Paul/Shaul was doing his duty when he was commanded to go to the gentiles and he went willingly because he know that the lost sheep of the House of Israel was where the gentiles were, letting them know so that they could be brought back.  I want you to read Ephesians 2:12-13 and I will talk more about this.

Slide: Ephesians 2:12-13— that at that time you were without Messiah, excluded from the citizenship of Yisra’ĕl and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no expectation and without Elohim in the world.  But now in Messiah יהושע you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah.

Notice the verse where it says that if you are not with Messiah, Yahushua, then you are not part of Israel but because you accept Yahushua you are bought from afar because of Yahushua the Messiah’s blood.  Remember what I said about where the house of Israel is?  They are lost in faraway places, they need to be found and brought near and become part of the flock. This is the reason Yahushua came, not to start a new religion, not to start a new teaching.  All that Yahushua taught came from his Father and was brought forth from the Torah.  I want you to know the truth.  Later I will explain more  about the House of Israel and the House of Judah and the whole history in later vlogs.  However, for now to make it clear and to the point the reason why Yahushua came which is to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel who are lost in the world where the gentiles live.   Yahushua sent Shaul to go and find them and bring them back.

When you accept Yahushua, you become part of Israel.  There is another verse I want to bring to your attention and this is in Revelation.  The book about end of times.  Where is Christianity?  It is not mentioned in there. A new temple will be built and will have twelve gates.  One gate for each of the 12 tribes of the House of Israel where before they were divided and now are one flock with Yahushua as the shepherd.   Read the verse and I will explain more after this.

Slide: Revelation 21-12—and having a great and high wall, having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve messengers, and names written on them, which are those of the twelve tribes of the children of Yisra’ĕl:

Who is there at the end? The House of Israel.  When Yahushua comes back, the House of Israel will be present.  Not christianity.  In a previous vlog, I mentioned about why people do not know about House of Israel and the fact that christianity ought not be here.  There is a purpose for everything.  YHWH has a plan for everything.  What would you say if I told you that the people who are part of the House of Israel but do not realize it are hidden inside christianity.  Now is the time to wake up and start to realize that they are part of House of Israel and not of christianity as long as they know Yahushua the Messiah and follow the instructions of the Father—the Torah.

Yahushua came to make it possible for us to have eternal life

Hello, my name is Dirk.

For the last several vlogs, I have been talking about the name of the Father and of the Son; YHWH and Yahushua.   The next several vlogs will focus on the reason why Yahushua came.  It was not just for one reason but for several reasons. This is the first vlog discussing about the reason that many people are familiar with.   Yahushua came so that our sins could be removed and provide us with the possibility of having eternal life.

The first verse that I want to talk about and substantiate this is from Colossians 1:14.  Go ahead and read the verse then I will discuss this further.

Qolasim/Colossians 1:14

In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.

We already know that Yahushua died on the stake.   Church often uses the term  ‘cross’ but if we look closely on the term used for cross where the Greek term actually means stake so we will stay with that term.

Yahushua died on the stake and his blood shed so that our sins could be forgiven.   The verse is accurate in that, now, how do we know that our sins are forgiven? Is it because of the blood alone?  No, there is more to it than that.  I want you to read Colossians 2:14 which explain what was nailed on the stake.  That is the reason why we have the possibility of having eternal life.

Qolasim/Colossians 2:14

Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to the stake.

The blue highlight on the words “handwriting of ordinances”, which the church often explains as the Law, the Torah, and Sabbath all of those were nailed on the “cross” and this means that they no longer matter to us.   This is not what this means.   When analyzing the Greek term, understanding what Paul was trying to explain, especially in context of the verses in Chapter 2, before and after the verse I am talking about.  We understand that what is being talked about pertains specifically to the list of each of our sins, those that we have done wrong against YHWH, against the Torah, every single sin written down.   When we die, that list will be used when YHWH judges us.  The punishment is death.  We will not have everlasting life.

Yahushua himself being perfect and without sin was put on the stake with our list of sins nailed on the stake.  This means what I owe to YHWH, what I have done wrong against Him is paid for.  Our sins have been taken away meaning that we no longer sin against YHWH.   We owe nothing.    This is what that verse means.

I want to give you a few verses from other bible translations, specifically what the translations use instead of handwriting of ordinances.   Those translations are more accurate in their translation.

List of various translations of Colossians 2:14

Charges, which are the list that is against us– what kind of list?  Our Sins that is against YHWH.  What I have done wrong. Not obeying YHWH, Not following the Torah, not doing Sabbath, etc, being against YHWH, disobedience.  Each one on the list and when we die and we face YHWH, this list already makes me guilty and Yahushua being perfect, remember?, perfect and without sin being put on the stake, all out sins, yours, mine, people from the beginning of time up to those at the end of time, all of our sins were nailed to the stake.  What we owe for our sin, which is death was nailed on the stake.   No longer will be punished for our sins, our sins are forgiven.   We do not have to die for our sins.   Yahushua took it all.

This is a great blessing.   Many people do not realize this, passing this off as the Law being nailed to the “cross”.   It is the punishment, Death–which we die for our sins, that was removed.

How do we know that the punishment for our sins is death?  It is from Romans 6:23 that explains clearly that our punishment which is death.  But Yahushua’s death forgave us of our sins so we could have eternal life.

Romiyim/Romans 6:23

For the wages of sin is death, but the favourable gift of Elohim is everlasting life in Messiah Yahushua our Master.

This precious gift from Elohim—everlasting life.   If we continue to be stubborn and not accept Yahushua, the list of sins will not be put on the stake and our punishment is death.   Elohim with his compassionateness granted us a gift of everlasting life.  We must know that what we do that is against YHWH—there is only one punishment—one, and that is death.   We cannot try to avoid this and get everlasting life ourselves.

The next few vlogs will explain other reasons why Yahushua came.  This is the first one. There will be several more reasons.   The Church explains only one reason that Yahushua came and that we can get everlasting life is that “Jesus” died on the “cross.”  I will say this, this is not the only reason.  Yes, Yahushua died for us so that we can have everlasting life plus several other reasons.  I will discuss these more later.
