Shavuot is currently (5783/2023) celebrated as a time to remember the giving of Torah through Moses at Mount Sinai over three thousand years ago. But in the Messianic Era, it’s a time when the entire world receives the Torah. Much like the Song of Solomon, it is first necessary to correct some misconceptions.
Jews currently stay up the all night the evening before Shavuot studying Torah. They do so to show they are serious about receiving God’s Laws as they “over slept” the morning Moses came to teach them Torah at Mount Sinai.
Jews count down 49 days from Passover to Shavuot. On the 50th Day, they celebrate by reading the Book of Ruth on Shavuot. However, if you or they continue doing so, you and they will miss it again. Here’s why.
I am sorry to say; most are “under the influence of the deceiver.” I was! Jews are those who 1) live in the land of Judah and/or are 2) from the tribe of Judah.
Jesus is the chief of the tribe of Judah. Therefore, Jews and Christians are both being misled.
Jews do have the most accurate books/historical teachings (Hebrew text). But they read much of it wrong. Wait!
Hear me out. Don’t decide anything until you read the Torah for yourself!
The Book of Ruth 1:1 tells us that Naomi was traveling through the land of Judah when her husband (Elimelek) and two sons (Mahlon and Kilion) died. Remember, I told you to get the etymology of the names so you understand what is being said.
Naomi tells Ruth to ask Boaz to redeem them. Boaz says he must first speak to the Original Redeemer (Ruth 3:7-12) to see if Naomi (who has renamed herself “Mara” – bitter) and Ruth will be accepted by him. See Ruth 4:1-12.
You will recall the side bar in the story of the Hebrews going into Egypt between the “Story of Joseph” and the “Story of Judah and Tamar”. Why does the Bible/Tanak have to tell us this story of Judah’s promise to Tamar whose name also means bitter?
Read and think for yourself (Genesis 38). Everything has been fulfilled. (Ruth 4:11-12)
In the Messianic Era, most Jews will no longer call themselves Jews. The LORD restores the land of Judah to Israel and the two become one, Israel. (See Ezekiel 37: 15-28).
In the Messianic era, there is no religion per se. There are really only two groups: the living (land of Israel which is not a physical location btw) and the dead. That’s it.
People live according to God's laws. They cleave to Almighty God who guides and provides. You still have free will but the advantages of living just far outweighs the option not to do so.
The ultimate goal was to restore all even if it took several lifetimes. But there has been so much perversion it's really hard for me to say. I don't know. Only God knows.
The REAL Moshiach is not a Jew per se though he may come "through" that tribe (Judah). Moshiach may be described as an original Hebrew or Israelite but I couldn’t describe him as a Jew. That would limit his mission. He gathers all twelve tribes (and the strangers affiliated with those tribes) and unites them into One.
When you think of Moshiach, you can think of Adam and Chava (a.k.a Eve). We mention the Sabbath Day a lot because that’s the Messianic Era.
When you think of Moshiach, don’t think of a man or a woman. Think of the restoration of Adam (men and women – all of humanity). Adam restored means that Chava, the Mother of all Living, is restored (cleaves) to the Creator.
Adam and Chava are being restored to Oneness. I’ll get into this later.
When Chava (the Mother of all Living) is restored, the feeling of the Creator’s essence (still small Voice) is restored in the earth realm (heart of humanity). Chava helps to raise the consciousness of humanity. The living (souls of humanity) are then able to hear/sense the Creator for themselves.
God delivers the Torah (Book of Instruction) in person. The LIVING will eventually hear and respond to the Voice/guidance of the true and living God.
But to hear the Voice of God, you must first renounce the deceiver (Satan) a.k.a “The
Tree of Good and Evil”. (Ezekiel 38-39).
The worst thing about it is that it seems good, loving, and kind. That is until
it’s not.
That’s why the Book of Nehemiah says to wear a sword while you build. Speak your intention. Be clear with yourself first and foremost. Have the Word of God (i.e. Psalm 23) firmly planted in your heart.
Since we are in the earth realm, you can’t get around it. You have to go through it (through the valley) or better yet, slay it (Satan/ Amelik) and rise above it. Amelik is within you (fear, doubt, addictions, ego) but appears to be an entity outside of you.
This is the generation that will see the truth. See Ezekiel 28.
All nations (governments), banking systems, charities, businesses, and technologies that don't serve or support or align with GOD to be of help to people and the environment will eventually perish. It's inevitable.
If they continue to oppress, cheat, steal, or lie, they are gone. It's already started.
It's also already happened many times before in history. Will we ever learn?
Moshiach helped me see it, but I had to slay it. You will too.
The Lord is King for ever and ever; the nations will perish from his land.17 You, Lord, hear the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,18 defending the fatherless, the widow, and the oppressed, so that mere earthly mortals will never again strike terror. Psalm 10:16-18
It's a collective memory of sorts. You have to pull the weeds by the roots.
Then, you have to build (climb) your inner vessel (soul) yourself. How?
Read Torah (Tanak)/ Old Testament Bible. Confess and repent quickly when you're wrong.
Eat non genetically modified (non GMO), organic, kosher foods whenever possible. Think you can't afford it? Go to the farmers market or grow it yourself if necessary.
Think well of others. “Love thy Neighbor”. Just be considerate of yourself and others.
Do charity. Volunteer without being asked to do so. Tithe.
Include God in all your plans. You literally have to verbalize that you renounce satan and ask the true and living God to live in (circumcize) your heart and mind (make covenant).
I think the most powerful prayer in the world is, "LORD help me." Teach it to your children along with Psalm 23.
I’m not going to say it’s easy. But it is possible. It will get easier in mass.
Most people don’t “pay attention” when Ezekiel 40-48 is read aloud. But I assure you, it’s the Messianic Era’s “Sea of Reeds”. Most people outside of the Hebrew nation don’t know that the Red Sea is actually the “Sea of Reeds”.
Depending on what version of the Bible/Tanak, you read, you will see it for yourself. So, there it is.
Obviously, you can call on the true and living God anytime. But there are certain seasons when it’s easier to hear than others.
Eventually, it will all be clear. But for now, you must use the stairs/steps (within) like the rest of us.
You cannot study all this overnight. You can. But it doesn’t make sense. You must prepare a little bit each day.
Please do not count the 49 days of Omer any more. It distracts you from studying the parts of the Bible/Tanakh that actually elevates you.
No one can drag you. It's participatory. You have free will.
Only the LORD can redeem souls. Other entities (Jesus, Boaz, certain wealthy egotistical people etc) called themselves redeemers/ saviors. But there's only One.
Some have ascended to high rank but only the living God redeems your soul. Don't give away your power.
Please don't visit the gravesites of deceased elders for guidance. It's so disrespectful to the living God who is truly available to help.
Just ask. But you do have free will.
Pray and converse with God yourself. You will be glad you did. God will guide you to the right people and places.
You may be guided to a new rabbi, mentor or shul. Or perhaps you just need to seek the one in your community.
It will become less confusing in the Messianic era. The LORD is King.
You know we (society) love our royals, but this One really loves you. But there are laws to follow. These laws are designed to keep you alive.
Also, we will be using teachers from various cultures very soon. Moshiach is currently “awakening” and instructing them.
You need to respect the Word of Truth (EMET) above all else regardless from whom it comes (tells you). God likes to hear from all the Tribes of Israel.
The Song is so much more delicious and colorful that way. Meanwhile, we present any teacher of any race that presents the truth with the most heartfelt clarity.
Don’t rush Moshiach. If he came now, very few would make it. You’re not ready. We are grateful for God's grace and mercy. Aren't we?
Just think how much further along you will be during Rosh Hoshana /Yom Kippur? And imagine your level of readiness next Pesach 5784 (2024) God willing!
Moshiach will come whenever he wants. He’s like that. Really.
By the way, did we mention you should read Chapters 40-48 in Book of Ezekiel aloud? You really should.
Chag Sameach!

Shema Yisrael. Adonai eloheinu. Adonai echad. Hear O' Israel. The Lord is our God. The Lord is one.
The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of[ Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him 3 and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of[ Meshek and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army—your horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. Ezekiel 38:1
