ALAHA - MESHIKHA - 1 CORINTHIANS

https://www.thearamaicscriptures.com/

- The original text says Yah.weh!

- Then the translators turn it into the LORD!

- And finally, they turn it into the Lord!

- Or according to the Aramaic Bible into MarYa {The Lord-YHWH} or to repeat the introduction of the Aramaic Bible:

In the Aramaic Peshitta Old Testament, every place where the Tetragramaton or, YHWH is written/spoken, the Aramaic word MarYA is given instead. This word is understood by the Aramaic speaking people as meaning The Lord-Ya or, {The Lord-YHWH}, and in The Eastern Aramaic Peshitta & Western Aramaic Peshitto New Testament Scriptures, this same word MarYA is found in all the NT quotations of the OT passages which show this form of YHWH.

Here below are the total 215 instances of the word/title MarYa {The Lord-Ya} or, {The Lord-YHWH} in The Eastern Peshitta & Western Peshitto Aramaic New Testament Books, where it appears in 49 of those places, in the list below, (In Red) clearly showing that Eshu Meshikha {Yeshua, The Anointed One/The Messiah) IS MarYa {The Lord-Ya} or, {The Lord-YHWH}, He being God, The Word, who always reveals The Father, and who, in the fullness of time came to Tabernacle with/in humanity as a human being to deliver mankind, who are His creation, from the curse of the law of sin and death, and to give them Eternal Life by His Mercy and Grace, through His atoning sacrifice on the Cross. The Messiah is God, The Word, who is YHWH come in the flesh to reconcile mankind unto Himself!

- HERE WE GET A GOOD EXAMPLE OF HOW TRADITION TURNS THE ORIGINAL TEXT INTO SOMETHING WHICH IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!

- IT REMINDS ME OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN AND SATAN’S AFFIRMATION TO EVE:

- YOU WON’T DIE!

- BUT THEY DIED!

- AND IT WAS SO WITH EVERYTHING!

- JESUS WARNED US!

- THE APOSTLES WARNED US!

- PAUL WARNED US!

- BUT CORRUPTION SPREAD EVERYWHERE!

- OR IT IS A WAY TO SEPARATE THE GOOD FROM THE BAD SEEDS!

- On the contrary, Paul’s message is SO SIMPLE!

- In Romans chapter one, we are told about Jesus as the anointed one, a called one and a sent one!

- His coming was foretold by the Prophets!

- He was made known to be the Son of God!

- God raised him from the dead!

- Thanks to Jesus, God’s message was transmitted to all the nations!

- Paul speaks about the deep relationship between God and His Son!

- Paul is concerned about all the disciples!

- God’s message is for everyone without exception!

- Those who think they are wise are foolish!

- God must be worshiped through the spirit but mankind worships statutes!

- If mankind behaves spiritually in a bad way, it also does the same physically!

- Thus mankind is dirty spiritually and physically!

- And they turn God’s truth into a lie!

- The price to pay for mankind: diseases and perversion!

- Depravity, and fornication, and bitterness, and evil, and fraud, and envy, and murder, and contention, and deceit, and evil thoughts and complainers, and accusers, and hateful towards God, revilers, proud, boastful; they invent evil, they lack reason; who are not obedient unto their fathers {i.e. their parents}, and for whom a covenant is nothing, and neither love, and neither peace, and neither is mercy in them.

- Mankind has perverted everything from the beginning and has kept doing it all the time!

- Mankind has followed the same path as the Hebrews and the Jews!

- Just one word: PERVERSION!

- We must KEEP AWAY FROM IT!

- Or better said, we must WASH OURSELVES!

- On the contrary, Paul’s message is SO SIMPLE!

- In 1 Corinthians chapter one, we are told about the same with some specifications:

- We have been called unto the partnership of God’s Son!

- Partnership between God and His Son, partnership between Jesus and men!

- Everyone must do his part!

- As a consequence ONE WORD OR ONE TEACHING FOR EVERYONE!

- HOW SHOULD IT BE DIFFERENT IF THE MESSAGE IS SIMPLE?

- BUT THERE ARE MANY DIVISIONS!

- “The wisdom of the wise will be destroyed, and the mind of the intelligent will be taken away.”

- Jesus the Messiah is The Power of God, and The Wisdom of God!

- God chose the foolishness of the world, so that it is a shame unto the wise, and chose the weakness of the world!

- God chose those who are nothing to bring unto nothing those who think they are something!

- Jesus has become for us Wisdom from God, and Righteousness, and Holiness, and Redemption!

Romans chapter 2:

- NO EXCUSE!

- Of course, if we look at the other side, we may find excuses!

- But it is a fake!

- Just as corruption is a fake!

- It doesn’t matter if it is the norm!

- The Hebrews and the Jews found excuses!

- It didn’t save them!

- Mankind has always tried to find excuses!

- It has never saved it!

- And it is not going to change!

- Paul speaks about the hardness of our heart!

- Then he adds about God, He who repays unto everyone according to their works!

- Thus the hardness of our hearts is connected with our works, our actions!

- We are responsible for them, not the others, each one of us!

- Those who by the patient endurance of good works are seeking glory and honor and incorruptibility: is it necessary to add anything?

- For, it isn't the hearers of The Law who are upright before God, but rather, the doers of The Law}, who are the righteous ones: NOT THE HEARERS BUT THE DOERS!

- and they display the performance of The Law, when it is written on their hearts, and their consciences are testifying concerning them, while their thoughts are rebuking or defending their spirits, unto one another,

- YES, WRITTEN ON OUR HEARTS!

- YES, OUR CONSCIENCES ARE TESTIFYING CONCERNING US!

- WHILE OUR THOUGHTS ARE REBUKING OR DEFENDING OUR SPIRITS, UNTO ONE ANOTHER!

- FOR YAH.WEH, WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS WHAT IS INSIDE!

- FOR MEN, WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS WHAT IS AT THE SURFACE!

- REALLY DIFFICULT TO MEET TOGETHER!

- Paul speaks about the Jews who think they know everything!

- It is possible to say the same of those who think they know everything!

- So they boast in God that they know His will, that they distinguish that which is proper and have confidence concerning their soul that they are a guide of the blind and a light of those who are in the darkness and an instructor of those deficient of understanding and a teacher of the young and are for the form of knowledge and truth in the Law!

- But Paul says they should teach first their own soul before teaching the others!

- And they tell others not to do this or that but they do it themselves!

- He then speaks of the real circumcision, the one from the heart!

- The one from the flesh is only superficial as man is!

- But we must be spiritual men, not superficial ones!

- Thus we must keep learning how to become so because it is not natural for man!

- In Romans chapter 3, Paul says that all Jews and Arameans are under sin!

- In fact, none are righteous, not even one!

- None who understands and none who seeks for God!

- All have turned aside, and together are rejected, and none who does good; not even one!

- Their throats are open graves, and their tongues are deceitful, and the venom of the snake is under their lips!

- Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness!

- And their feet are quick to shed blood!

- Vexation and misery are in their ways!

- And the fear of God isn’t before their eyes!

- And God has sent His Son for the Reconciliation through the Faith of His Blood!

- And we can say the same for every man!

- There is no difference!

- Thus no one is innocent and as a consequence everyone should show humility!

- But it is rarely the case!

- Man likes to boast!

- Man thinks he thinks everything!

- At the end he will get the adequate prize!

- No one will escape!
