I speak far less on (On Facebook) of Spiritual matters these days. I have decreased a good number of those of my (Facebook) contacts where such were/are obviously publicly dedicated to religious lifestyles.
My greater reason for such, has been the witness of those truly converted from one false path to a true path, only to get themselves continually caught up in controversy. Sure their lips sing praise of Yah', but they also sling the sword of rebuke with impunity, forgetting themselves, and they are always caught up in one conflict or another publicly. Such continual rants event though waged in the name of righteousness, only bring and spread negativity into all the lives of those exposed to such.
They preach a God of Love, but cointinually exhibit by their own walks strife and hatred, peity without tolerance; Mastery of Scripture without ears to truly hear; reaching the maturity of adulthood with no respect for children.
Shekinah, the Holy Spirit, RUACH Ha CHODESH of YAH, appeared to Jeremiah as a little girl...Hmmm
."Yah is not a man that he should lie, neither the son of man that he should bear false witness"
In Isaiah God is referred to as "THE HOLY VIRGIN OF ISRAEL", in the feminine...and many would argue this or that...but I note such to say that we can educate ourselves to our own detriment!
When Yah' sends his message by a child, many adults will shun the same. When he sends his message by a Ruth, or an Esther, many male professed Men of God will take offense, puff up and not hear.
REMEMBER, as you put on the whole Armor of Yah', that when David was chosen, there was no armour already in the land made to fit him when he faced a giant that had defeated all before him.
REMEMBER...the BIBLE you share most greatly is not penned in ink on paper, it is penned in footsteps through life, your steps, your walk.
IT has been said that Christ Yeheshua, the one many refer to as "JESUS", 2000 yrs ago knew the entire scriptures by heart, word for word.
This act in itself was not uncommon in his day nor ours. A Scribe's main task was to keep the records, to re-write a new copy in his own generation of the Scriptures.
Before a Scribe was "Graduated", put into "OFFICE" so to speak, his final task in his education was to write completely from memory, a CORRECT, ENTIRE COPY of the scriptures, not one word added, not one word taken away, not one jot or tittle out of place. Pharisees were required even greater tasks of memory, and so in the days of Christ 2000 years ago, when he told in many occasions both Scribes and Pharisees "Ye do Err in not knowing the scriptures"...he was not telling them they did not have the words memorized for they did. He was telling them, they did not truly understand the very words spilling out of their mouths each Sabbath at Temple!
REMEMBER...your greatest Bible for Evangelism, is not the ancient texts you have memorized and can quote at will, it is the life you lead, the path you walk, the STEPS you choose.
Surely, there have been those most used of YAH, who illustrate MORE KNOWLEDGE of scriptures in their ignorance, than others have in their expertise with their feats of Mastery in Memory of the text. For more often than not, even as they quote the words, word for word, verse for verse not omitting one jot or one tittle, the same EXPERTS often "Do Err, NOT KNOWING THE SCRIPTURES."
We Approach the Sabbath of Yah', for those with hearts for the truth, Shalom,
-Benjamin, The Anointed of Yah'
