Shalom All:I write this because I see failing foundations all around me ... some are even gone!
You have a failing foundation if you ...
... don't know that Yeshua ("Salvation") traces His human ancestry back to Adam, and that He traces His mother's bloodline through the the tribe of Judah, Joseph (Israel), Isaac, Abraham. Any change in that ancestory would negate His Value as The Redemption of the human race which is spelled-out in terms of the account from Adam to Abraham, Isaac, Joseph (Israel), Judah.
... think that Yeshua - literally THE Word in human flesh, to follow The Father's agenda ONLY - taught a "social" gospel. He came as the means to direct/restore ALL mankind back to The Father/Creator. And, in returning to The Father, peace between humans should manifest itself ... BUT ... any attempt to first manifest peace WITHOUT returning to The Father is doomed to failure.
... think that there are many ways to The Father/Creator/YHVH and not just exclusively through Yeshua. ONLY Yeshua can stand before The Father in the perfectness The Father/Creator demands. There is NONE other like Yeshua. Born of flesh BUT fathered by YHVH; perfect in His life before The Father; worthy and WILLING to pay the Redemption price with His Blood/Body/Life. There is NONE like Him.
... think YHVH/The Creator can't do anything without your approval or effort. He created you, you did not create Him. YHVH has no need of the counsel or power of men. Relationship/fellowship, yes; consel/power, no.
... believe that YHVH of the Old Testament is different from YHVH of the New Testament. Consider that IF that is true, THEN your redemption is voided because one of the characteristics of the Blood Covenant/Redemption demands changelessness.
... don't think YHVH sees, hears, and KNOWS everything you see, hear, and think/do. There is nothing hidden from Him Who is beyond TIME and SPACE, having created everything. Only a foolish human believes there is no accountablity.
... consider that the Gentrile CHURCH has taken the place of Israel in YHVH's promises. Since YHVH cannot change, the promises to Israel must stand. The teaching/doctrine of such a take-over is a DESTRUCTIVE LIE OF CONFUSION, cutting many off from true blessings.
... OR ... think the Children of Israel are humanly superior in some way, having the way to The Father through works/special living. It was YHVH Who chose the Children of Israel (Jacob) from among the peoples of the world. And while the Children of Israel accepted the offer YHVH extended to them instead of rejecting it, THEY DID NOT INITIATE IT.
... worship/trust in your theology/doctrine above and before The Blood Covenant of Yeshua. It is only Yeshua Who is Redemption Salvation. If you don't have Him, you have nothing.
Very soon you will know what you have .... Yeshua, the Sure Foundation or ... nothing!
