What’s an armor bearer? We read in the Bible about the armor bearer of Jonathan, son of King Saul, who accompanied him everywhere to help carry his burdens and to ensure he had everything he needed to go into battle. The armor bearer even fought alongside him in battle. Now imagine what an armor bearer does for a ministry leader, and you have an idea of Kevin Jessip’s young adult years as the armor bearer of evangelist Phil Enloe! In this second part of our conversation, Kevin tells us how Phil Enloe and other seasoned veterans of the faith mentored him over the years and were used of God to prepare and support him in his own ministry efforts – even after he left active ministry!
Kevin is a living example of how the promises of God are “yes” and “amen” in Messiah Yeshua. But then, what exactly does God’s “yes” mean? Barry and David investigate that in their midrash. As we hear in the music of Teshuva and Solomon Lopez, God’s yes is a function of His mercy that invites a response from all nations.

I will turn my hand against you and will smelt away your dross as with lye and remove all your alloy. And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
Isaiah 1:25-26
Like dross skimmed from silver, when corrupt leaders are removed, the people have a chance to heal.
Silver is refined by removing the dross, not the silver. So when Yeshua said "One will be taken, the other left..." could he have meant that the silver will be left, while the dross is removed?
Come now, let us reason together, says YHWH: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land, but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of YHWH has spoken.
Isaiah 1:19-20
Nobody's perfect. We all make mistakes and we all rebel at times. Fortunately, we serve a forgiving God who wants us to repent so that he can reward our obedience.
Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow's cause.
Isaiah 1:17
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
James 1:27
According to YHWH and James, the heart of righteousness and justice is in keeping #torah and serving the oppressed, fatherless, and widows. This does NOT mean that you should send men with guns to force your neighbors to serve the oppressed, fatherless, and widows. You do it yourself, voluntarily, with your own resources.

Acquire truth and do not sell it, acquire wisdom, instruction and understanding.
Proverbs 23:23 TLV
This proverb is not an admonition against teaching for hire. It is a statement about the value of truth, wisdom, discipline, and understanding. Truth and wisdom can sometimes be purchased, but the point is to pursue them by whatever means and to accumulate them like investments that pay continual dividends.
