For Jerusalems sake

The Shema
" Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai Echad."

• Hear O Israel,
• The Lord our God
• Is One Lord. (Deut. 64)

4
There is one God and one called out Elect and
chosen covenant people set forth in the pages of
Holy Scripture.

• So the present schism between the Church and
  Israel reflects an unnatural and temporary state.
  The present division and the breach is destined
  to be healed at the climax of the age.

5
There is just One Elect spoken of in the Pages
of Holy Scripture

• Moses and the Apostle Peter both speak of a
  Kingdom of Priests/a Royal Priesthood, and a Holy
  Nation this describing one single Elect/one
  Chosen People. (Ex.196, 1Pet. 29)

6
There is One God and one Elect but two
anointings and two witnesses standing before the
God of the earth.

A Seemingly Irreconcilable Theological Dualism

• Law and Grace
• Justice and Mercy
• Righteous and Holy
• Rule Ministry

10
YHVH-Gods righteous rule and Torah and His mercy
and grace must be held together harmoniously with
complete and total unity and integrity .

• If that were not so then YHVH-God would be double
  minded, inconsistent, capricious, and
  schizophrenic. But He is not.

11
LAW AND GRACE ARE IN HARMONY WITH THE GOD OF
ISRAEL

• Throughout the Holy Scriptures we see the God of
  Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in His Kingdom role in
  the Order of Melchizedec. Out of Zion in
  Jerusalem, the city of His peace, He brings His
  LAW and He rules in perfect righteousness .

12
LAW AND GRACE ARE IN COMPLETE HARMONY WITH THE
GOD OF ISRAEL

• We also see YHVH-God in His High Priestly role in
  the Melchizedec priesthood. He extends His
  amazing GRACE to the humble. And He shows forth
  His great salvation to the ends of the earth in
  wonderful acts of mercy and lovingkindness .

13
The New Covenant is a personal work of Gods
divine saving, guiding and empowering grace
facilitated by the exercise of faith within the
penitent surrendered individual human heart.

• The New Covenant is announced in Jeremiah 3231
  where YHVH-God speaks of His law being written in
  the hearts of those who have come to know and to
  love Him.

14
The Twofold Blessing Promised to Abraham

• Genesis 15
• A promised holy place in a holy land between
  the River of Egypt and the Euphrates River.
• An innumerable multitude, a huge congregation
  of descendants.

The Two Candles

Zechariahs Vision of the Two Olive Trees
17
Rabbinic Speculation regarding the possibility of
there being two Messiahs

• A Messiah of the Priesthood,
• - Meshiach ben Joseph
• A Messiah of the Kingdom
• - Meshiach ben David

18
The Two Burdens of Daniels Prophecy of the 70
Weeks

• Daniel 924
• Seventy weeks are determined
• 1. for your (holy) people
• and
• 2. For your holy city . . . . .

The Two Sticks of Ezekiel 37
22
Gods two authorities, one in Judah and one in
Joseph/Ephraim are destined to become one.

• Ezekiel 37  
• The word of the Lord came to me 16 "Son of man,
  take a stick of wood and write on it, 'Belonging
  to Judah and the Israelites associated with him.'
  Then take another stick of wood, and write on it,
  'Ephraim's stick, belonging to Joseph and all the
  house of Israel associated with him.' 17 Join
  them together into one stick so that they will
  become one in your hand.
