The words “holiness” and “sanctification” are two words that are used quite often in many churches. Unfortunately, they are usually not used in the original context of the Bible. “Sanctification” is a process of being separated for a particular purpose and “holiness” is being of Yahweh. When a person is sanctified and holy, then that person is separated from the rudiments and traditions of the world unto the holiness of Yahweh.
Again, it’s very unfortunate that many people go about establishing their own righteousness, or their own form of holiness, and not submit themselves to the holiness of Yahweh that he has clearly laid out in his word.
The whole purpose is to enter into the kingdom of Yahweh at it’s coming, and unless you submit yourself to the righteousness of Elohim, . . .
In this section, we’re going to deal with one aspect of holiness and sanctification, and that is through Yahweh’s Dietary Law.
We will begin this by looking at a segment of one of Paul’s letters that many, as Peter said, “which are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.”
You have to have a good understanding of the scriptures (the Old Testament) in order to understand Paul’s letters.
I Timothy 4:1-5 Now the spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Here, Paul is stating how in these last days there will be a group of people which shall teach doctrines of devils. They speak lies in hypocrisy by claiming to be Elohim’s church and their leader
claims to be the “vicar” (replacement of Messiah). With this type of ideology, their conscience would HAD to have been seared with a hot iron! They forbid some of their flock to marry and even forbid (at least on certain days) the eating of meats that Yahweh have
created to be eatened and still NOT forbid the meats that Yahweh said to NOT eat.
For every creature of Elohim is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:For it is sanctified by the word of Elohim and prayer.
Every creature of Yahweh IS good, but it is good for whatever purpose Elohim created it for. Elephants, monkeys, lions, tigers and bears (OH MY!) are examples of animals that were NOT created to be eaten.
I, and my dog Tuffy, are also creatures of Elohim, and if you believe that ANYTHING can be eatened, then we would have to watch our back whenever we’re in your presence. {:o)
Let us go and look in Yahweh’s word and read where the creatures are sanctified according to which can and cannot be eaten.
Leviticus 11:1-12, 44-46 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, Open your scriptures to read the rest of this ordinance of cleanliness that the Most High ordained for us to keep.
. . . For I am YAHWEH your Elohim: ye shall therefore SANCTIFY YOURSELVES, and ye shall be HOLY; FOR I AM holy: neither shall ye DEFILE YOURSELVES . . THIS is how I know Yahshua wasn’t speaking of unclean foods in Matthew 15 which we shall read shortly. Yahweh said that unclean foods in fact defile you, and IF not from anything else, then definitely from disobedience.
. . . with ANY manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. HOW CAN I ADD TO THAT? The Most High is showing us how he have sanctified (separated) the clean from the unclean animals.
There is no place in the scriptures that state that this dietary law will cease at Yahshua’s coming. Yahweh had sanctified the clean from the unclean even before Moses was born. He commanded Noah to separate the clean animals from the unclean animals.
Genesis 7:1-2 And YAHWEH said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. There’s a good Biblical trivia question for ya. Isn’t it amazing how many people never knew, because the churches do not teach, that Yah put the clean animals in the ark by sevens?
Isaiah 65:2-6 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, AFTER THEIR OWN THOUGHTS;
...These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. Isaiah 66:15-18,22 For behold, YAHWEH will come with FIRE, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his ANGER with FURY, and his rebuke with flames of fire. We see that the same Isaiah that prophesied about the coming of Messiah Yahshua, . . . BOTH comings in fact, prophesied the destruction of those that continue to be abominable in Yahweh’s eyes by breaking his (dietary) law. {:o)
Matthew 15:1-11,15-20 Then came to Yahshua scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, . . . Ye HYPOCRITES, well did Esaias (Isaiah 29:13) prophesy of you, saying, (Keep PETER in mind as the one that wanted to understand
what Yahshua was saying here, as there will be a test later. {:o)
...and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
Yahshua’s point was concerning the tradition which they held concerning unwashed hands. To eat with unwashed hands do not defile you. Peter knew what Yahshua was saying and he didn’t
think, “Ok, I can go and eat pig meat now.” We shall see in this next passage.
Acts 10:1-20, 26-28 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band. Yahweh sends an angel to Cornelius the Italian who was a devout man of Elohim but was still alienated from the promises. The angel tells Cornelius to go and find Simon Peter, and he will bring Cornelius into the adoption of the household of Israel through Yahshua. Cornelius sends some of his men to get Peter. Now lets see what is happening with Peter at this time.
On the morrow as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
I like to ask people, especially those that profess Messiah, what they would have done in this situation. Obviously their answer is usually something to the effect of, “I would’ve started chowing down!” Then I’d say, “Who-oa, you must know something that Peter didn’t know then.”
BUT Peter said, Not so, Master; for I HAVE NEVER EATEN any thing that is common or unclean. We clearly see that Peter knew what Yahshua meant in Matthew 15, and he didn’t start eating unclean animals.
And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What Elohim hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
Now you’d thought that Peter was ready to eat up some stuff now. He already was hungry before the vision came which could have been why Yahweh sent this vision to him.
This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
. . . While Peter hadn’t a clue what Yahweh was trying to tell him, Peter KNEW what Yah WASN’T trying to tell him and that was that he had changed his mind, and all of a sudden, the pig
that was called an ABOMINATION, was now clean.
. . . While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold three men seek thee. Arise therefore and get thee down with them DOUBTING NOTHING: . . .
Remember, Peter had doubted in himself the meaning of the
vision. . . . for I have sent them . . . The Italian men reveal what happened to Cornelius and THEN Peter understood at that time what the vision meant. It was the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophesies concerning Yahweh admitting the Gentiles into the commonwealth of Israel through the grace given to us by Yahshua’s sacrifice. Peter go with the men to meet Cornelius and here’s what happened.
. . . And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
This is funny how this Italian was bowing down to an Israelite and at the same time, Peter (the Israelite) tells the Italian not to do that because Peter knew that Yahweh didn’t like men to be reverenced like that. But the Italian church (the Catholics) deceive many
people telling them that Peter (the Israelite) was the first “pope.”
How idiotic can that be? Peter didn’t allow reverence to be given to him, neither flattering titles, and he was also married. Have anyone ever seen a “pope” refrain someone from showing him reverence. Are they allowed to marry?
And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
Afterwards, the apostles proceeded, and especially after Paul’s conversion,
to preach and convert the Gentiles.
Acts 13:46-47 Then Paul and Barnabus waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of Elohim should first have been spoken to you: but seeing you put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
Many people focus on the fact that Paul was speaking about the Jews as being unworthy of everlasting life, but they forget the fact that all the apostles WERE Jews/Israelites, and the only way
the Gentiles could come and join themselves to the covenant that
Yahweh made with Israel was through the adoption of Israel.
For so hath Yahweh commanded US, saying, I have set THEE for a LIGHT of the GENTILES, that THOU
shouldest be for SALVATION unto the ends of the earth.
Before we conclude this chapter, let’s read a passage concerning false prophets that ignore Yahweh’s Holy Days and Yahweh’s Dietary
Law.
Ezekiel 22:25-28 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.
If this passage fits you, or your pastor/preacher/bishop, then you’d better take heed.
I hope that your knowledge concerning YAHWEH’s Sanctyified Diet, and on how the fulfillment of the scriptures concerning the Gentiles coming into the household of YAHWEH has been increased.
