Echad

It is not a wish nor a dream nor even just a fact, it is absolute truth that we live in the end time redemption process for Israel. In order to bring the final outpouring of G-d upon this planet, some things are going to have to change. If you are a person that cannot handle conflict resolution, or have to be *right* to the point of abandoning the love of G-d, you are going to be very shocked and very angry with yourself when you miss what is coming.

We are all aware that there is much apostasy, doctrines of demons, false teachings, false prophets.....but when you have a brother or sister in Moshiach/Christ and they say something that you don't agree with or something that doesn't seem to be sound doctrine to you, before you go off like a hatchet person hacking off their head and turning into their enemy, there's a list of things you should do.

 First, pray! If the person is a friend, pick up the telephone and make a phonecall. 90% of conflicts are born out of misunderstanding and miscommunication. Then you are to walk in love. Put your trust in the Almighty to correct His child. Unless G-d specificially appoints you as their agent of correction, you do not have any right to go give them a piece of your mind or sermonize them. And the G-d of Yisra`el does not correct by sending people with pieces of minds or sermons. He always operates through love and grace and mercy.

The love of G-d gives one the benefit of the doubt. I Corinthians 13 tells us that LOVE doesn't keep a record of wrongs. Instead it chooses to believe the best.

If you are the one being hurt by such unlovely behavior, take heart. G-d is truly allowing a favor to be done for you. People who divide and cause such division destroy the unity of the faith which brings moves of G-d. Romans 16:17-18 AMP says, "Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause division and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our L-rd Yeshua Hamashiach/Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple." They look very g-dly on the outside but when it comes to love, they have none and they are full of bitterness, jealousy and self righteousness. When they walk away from you, praise G-d for He has allowed them to be removed out of your midst so He can bring the glory. And if G-d removes you from them, rejoice because He's leading you out of things you do not need to be a part.

I think the Church could learn a few lessons from Jews. We already know, as Jews, that where there are two Jews there are three opinions. Jews never freak out that people disagree with them, they simply find a place to agree to keep the brotherhood in shalom. The body of Moshiach/Christ hasn't learned how to do this yet and are running around hating one another and are totally powerless as a result.

It is my personal belief that if we don't get into the love walk and learn to walk in one accord with our brethren, we are never going to see the glorious outpouring. I have further come to the conclusion that unless we lose our selfish ambition of having to always be right, we're never going to walk in love. If we don't walk in love we shall never be *echad* one. And if we aren't of one accord, we shall not see a move of G-d.

The power of unity prepares people to operate in the supernatural manifestations of G-d. I know *Christians* think they have the edge on this unity topic, but Jews learned this thousands of years ago. That's why among Jews, even when we disagree, we disagree only on a level of shallowness because in the end, the Jewish genetics kick in and rule. For example, when two Jews, one Israeli and one American, talk about Israeli politics and what should or should not be done, and they don't agree, they don't attack the Jewishness of the subject because being Jew outranks being Israeli or American. The unity is unbroken. Being right also doesn't outrank being Jew. I pray the Church learn a lesson or two. I suppose if there is any great secret to the power of Jews, it is our G-d and the fact, we operate in one accord.

Church, you are not making any Jew jealous yet. It's time to grow up and quit worrying about being right above loving your brother or sister. I can see why G-d will only be able to use a remnant. The body of Moshiach/Christ is full of lone wolves who have to be the leaders and cannibalize their own. I'm not impressed. What the Church should be is so in love with members of the Body of Moshiach/Christ that they rather love than disagree and find ways to walk in unity in spite of differences. Brothers and sisters in Moshiach should be willing to submit to one another and work together and respect the order and leadership of G-d.

Philippians 2:1-2 AMP says, "If there be therefore any consolation in Christ/Moshiach, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, fulfil ye my joy, that ye be like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind."

How do we become like-minded? We keep our eyes upon Yeshua/Jesus and remain small in our own eyes.

How do we have the same love? We love as Yeshua/Jesus loves and operate only in this love.

How do we become of one accord and one mind? We allow Yeshua./Jesus to rule us by His love and make a commitment to keep the commandments of love.

How do we fulfil the joy of Yeshua/Jesus? We walk in love, full of His Spirit, majoring in mercy.

What happens when Yeshua's/Jesus' joy is fulfilled? The glory of the L-rd shall cover the earth as the waters cover the seas.

I don't know about you, but I know about my little Kehilat. We are working tirelessly to become echad, in one accord, in all areas. We know that when we accomplish this, the glory will come to us. We aren't waiting on the Church anymore because we have figured out, we are the final Judean Church and we'll do it without you if you don't get into one accord with us.  Perhaps the greatest thing we have learned is that in true unity, the power of G-d rolls in and does amazing things.  It's why we see things few people see. *grin*

The glory is coming....and I see it......and if you saw what I see, you'd throw down everything that holds you back including your pride. I pray that you make a decision to jump on the love walk. Come with us!
