– And the Word\/Torah was made flesh (John 1:14a)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Did you know that the first century believers\u00a0called Jesus\u00a0“haTorah”! (1) You might expect they would not have anything to do with that ‘law’, the Torah…, – but more and more believers’ come to understand that to follow Yeshua implies keeping the Thorah!<\/p>\n

The Torah\u00a0is the Living Word of God; the five Books of Moses. Yeshua\u00a0became the embodiment of those living rules: haTorah!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Because Yeshua followed Adonai YHWH’s teaching perfectly, he could become ‘a lamb without blemish and without spot’ (1 Pe 1:19b). He didn’t sin (‘for sin is the transgression of the law\/Torah’, 1 John 3:4). The apostle Paul still, asks us:\u00a0‘Do we then make void the law trough faith? Elohim forbid: yea, we\u00a0establish<\/em>\u00a0the law<\/em>.’ Later, he concludes: ‘Wherefore the\u00a0Torah [is] holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good’. (Rom. 7:12; 3:31).<\/p>\n

And Romans 8:4 says that now, in Jesus, ‘The\u00a0Torah\u00a0might be fulfilled<\/em>\u00a0in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.’ The first\u00a0believers in Jesus were still ‘zealous of the Torah’ (Acts 21:20), as were the gentiles, who were taught weekly by the Jewish apostles (Acts 15:21). I believe a lot of texts that were written by the apostles are wrongly interpreted. Jesus came not to destroy… (Mt. 5:17), but to fulfill (do) Torah perfectly.. and all nations should be taught what Jeshua taught the disciples (My. 28:20).<\/p>\n

Some important implications of Torah-observant lives<\/strong> When we go back to the ‘Torah of love’ (James 2), which was given, so that we should\u00a0live,<\/em> there will be many blessings flow from this:<\/p>\n
