(Bless YHVH the blessed One; Blessed is YHVH, the blessed
One for all eternity. Blessed are you, YHVH, our Elohim, King of the Universe,
you have selected us from among all the peoples, and have given us your Torah.
Blessed are you, YHVH, giver of the Torah. Ameyn)
"See, I place before you today a blessing and
a curse." (Deut. 11:26)
“’The level of perception denoted by "sight" is a
direct revelation from YHVH, not something we attain on our own.’’ The
Ruach of Elohim gives us understanding as to what is happening in and around us,
according YHVH’s Word.
Deu 13:1 “When there arises among you a prophet or
a dreamer of dreams, and he shall give you a sign or a wonder, כִּי-יָקוּם בְּקִרְבְּךָ נָבִיא
Deu 13:2 and the sign or the wonder shall come
true, of which he has spoken to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other mighty ones
– which you have not known – and serve them,’
Deu 13:3 do not listen to the words of that prophet
or that dreamer of dreams, for יהוה your Elohim is trying you to know whether
you love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart and with
all your being.
The word for "testing" ('menase') also
can be translated "elevating." Thus, this verse may be interpreted to
mean, "G‑d tests a person in order to elevate him to a higher level of
Divine knowledge."
Deu 13:4 “Walk after יהוה your Elohim and fear
Him, and guard His commands and obey His voice, and serve Him and cling to
Him.
Deu 13:5 “And that prophet or that dreamer of
dreams is put to death, because he has spoken apostasy against יהוה
your Elohim – who brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim and ransomed you
from the house of bondage – to make you stray from the way in which יהוה your Elohim commanded you to walk. Thus you shall purge the
evil from your midst.
Deu 13:6 “When your brother, the son of your
mother, or your son or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend
who is as your own being, entices you secretly, saying, ‘Let us go and serve
other mighty ones’– which you have not known, neither you nor your
fathers,
Deu 13:7 of the mighty ones of the people which are
all around you, near to you or far off from you, from one end of the earth to
the other end of the earth –
Deu 13:8 do not agree with him or listen to him,
nor shall your eye pardon him, nor spare him or conceal him,
Deu 13:9 but you shall certainly kill him. Your
hand is first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all
the people,
Deu 13:10 and you shall stone him with stones until
he dies, because he sought to entice you away from יהוה your Elohim, who
brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, from the house of bondage.
Deu 13:11 “And let all Yisra’ěl hear and fear, and
not again do any such evil matter as this in your midst.
Deu 13:12 “When you hear someone in one of your
cities, which יהוה your Elohim gives you to dwell in,
saying,
Deu 13:13 Some men, sons of Beliya‛al,(Heb –
failure to ascend) have gone out of your midst and led the inhabitants of their
city astray, saying, “Let us go and serve other mighty ones” ’ – mighty ones
whom you have not known –
Deu 13:14 then you shall inquire, search out, and
ask diligently. And see if the matter is true and established that this
abomination was done in your midst,
Deu 13:15 you shall certainly strike the
inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, putting it under the ban,
and all that is in it and its livestock, with the edge of the sword.
Deu 13:16 “And gather all its plunder into the
middle of the street, and completely burn with fire the city and all its
plunder, before יהוה your Elohim. And it shall be a heap(Tel)
forever, never to be built again.
Deu 13:17 “And none of that which is put under the
ban is to cling to your hand, so that יהוה turns from the fierceness of His
displeasure and shall show you compassion, love you and increase you, as He
swore to your fathers,
Deu 13:18 when you obey the voice of יהוה
your Elohim, to guard all His commands which I command you today, to do what is
right in the eyes of יהוה your Elohim.
Deu 14:1 “You are the children of יהוה
your Elohim. Do not cut yourselves nor shave the front of your head for the
dead,
Deu 14:2 for you are a set-apart people to יהוה your Elohim, and יהוה has chosen you to be a people for Himself,
a treasured possession above all the peoples who are on the face of the
earth.
Deu 14:3 “Do not eat whatever is abominable.
What is evidence of been sealed in the Ruach?

Rom 8:4 so that the righteousness of the Torah
should be completed in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according
to the Spirit.
Rom 8:5 For those who live according to the flesh
set their minds on the matters of the flesh, but those who live
according to the Spirit, the matters of the Spirit.
Rom 8:6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the
mind of the Spirit is life and peace.
Rom 8:7 Because the mind of the flesh is enmity
towards Elohim, for it does not subject itself to the Torah of Elohim, neither
indeed is it able,
Rom 8:8 and those who are in the flesh are unable
to please Elohim.
Rom 8:9 But you are not in the flesh but in the
Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of Elohim dwells in you. And if anyone does not
have the Spirit of Messiah, this one is not His.
Rom 8:10 And if Messiah is in you, the body is
truly dead on account of sin, but the Spirit is life on account of
righteousness.
Rom 8:11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised יהושע from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Messiah from the
dead shall also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit dwelling in
you.

and took counsel to kill them.

daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old

speaking by the Spirit of Elohim says יהושע is a curse, and no
one is able to say that יהושע is Master except by the Set-apart
Spirit.
