This is the second time in just about 3 years where I witnessed a tornado headed for us & it turned 90 degrees away, right at the edge of town. It's all Yah's wonderful mercy. Like Lot, He remembers the handful of His faithful in this city of sin and turned His wrath away. The storm chasers were even here this time. I couldnt see the storm coming until I was headed back from the vet. It was ominous looking! I havent seen a storm brew that fast since a derecho in '98. Yah's mercy seems unceasing, but I know there's a limit to His patience as well. Thank you, 'Yahuah, for once again turning away your anger for the sake of the few!

Only women undergo the #sotah trial for suspected adultery. If a man "goes aside" it might be sin (fornication), but it's not adultery by how that word is used in Torah. The concept of adultery in Torah is limited to a married woman having relations with someone who is not her husband. The sin in Numbers 5:12 is against the husband because he has a property right in his wife's sexuality. Yeah, yeah...how awful. Don't forget she has a property right in his sexuality too, even if it's of a different nature.

(Yeshua expanded the concept of adultery to a man who divorces his wife unjustly, in part because he has defiled his marriage by treating his wife hatefully, but also, I'm sure, because she would likely need to remarry to avoid poverty and abuse.)

The #sotah trial in Numbers 5 offers us hope for forgiveness of sins and innocence at the final judgment. The blood of #yeshua washes away the curses that are written against us by the accuser.

When we speak of using the Names and obeying Torah, folks often ask "are you trying to be holier than others?" Nope, we are trying to be as holy as we can be and hope y'all join us.

...He shall make full restitution for his wrong, adding a fifth to it and giving it to him to whom he did the wrong.
Numbers 5:7

Restitution for a crime should be made directly to the victim or his family, not the church or government. If restitution can't be made to any living people, then restitution should be made to God.

#numbers 5:7-10 #naso

Speak to the people of Israel, When a man or woman commits any of the sins that people commit by breaking faith with the LORD...
Numbers 5:6

Sinning against a person is the same as sinning against God. If you love God, you will love your neighbor. Injury to man is injury to God. Charity to man is charity to God. This is how Yeshua can say, "Whatever you have done to the least of these my brethren, you have done to me."

On this date in history, 06/13/1983: American space probe Pioneer 10 becomes the first man-made object to leave the solar system proper when it crosses the orbit of Neptune. It would continue transmitting data to Earth for another 20 years. #otd #tdih #aerospacehistory

Great message for Shavuot/Pentecost. When we left mainstream Christianity, we left 25 (me) and 40 (him) years of teaching that emotions supersede truth --- that following the Spirit was the most important part of our Christian walk. But when God opened our eyes to the truth about following His Son, we began to understand what it really feels like to have the Spirit working in our lives.
