Your Father in heaven cares about every aspect
of your life. Why? Because He loves you. As all good parents do, He sets
standards of behavior for His children that enhance both their good health
and their dignity as His children, created in His image. By adopting the
standards that He has set we benefit ourselves in a number of ways. Our
health and longevity are maximized by observing His health standards and
dietary standards, for example. Yes, He cares what you eat and tells you
what is good for you and what is not. This one factor alone would save
millions of lives if only people knew these food standards and followed
them, let alone all the rest of the instruction He has given for our
benefit! Furthermore, living as a child of God who follows the Father's
standards of behavior glorifies Him and provides an example for others of
what living in the image of God actually looks like! It raises the
individual to a higher lever and saves them from many of the maladies of
this twisted world, while also glorifying our Grand Creator.
With all of this benefit so readily available
to us in His Torah (5 Books of Moses) it is strange indeed that some
Christian doctrine tells us we should just ignore all of that. The result
has been that His children very often do not know His standards of behavior,
so sink into the unhealthy and unbecoming made-made standards of those who
do not know God, and do not walk in His ways. This has a lot to do with the
fact that the churches have largely lost their voice and their influence
among the younger generation, who are leaving the churches in droves. When
asked why they left, those young people often say their church had nothing
to offer them they couldn't find in the world. It is the disregard of the
Father's standards set out in the Torah that has gutted the church of its
power. I would ask all serious believers to rectify that problem in their
own lives by receiving Torah instruction from believers who know and live by
the Father's standards as enumerated for His children in the Books of Moses.
God's children, join us in our

YHWH are to conduct themselves. How does He want you to behave in His
household? That's tonight,
