Why Did Messiah Come?

This is not as simple as it might seem. Most Christian will tell you it was to save people. That is just a by product! The Real answer lies in the new covenant which is first mentioned in Deuteronomy 20:1 "These [are] the words of the covenant, which YHVH commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb."

Then again in Jeremiah 31:31 "Behold, the days come, saith YHVH, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah".

Repeated again in Hebrews 8:8 "For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:"

This is the right of return...made possible by Yeshua's Blood!

"And to Yeshua the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than [that of] Abel." Hebrews 12:24

"Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve YHVH acceptably with reverence and awe: for our Elohom is a [is] a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:28-29

The Kindom of course is all of Israel.

Yah's Blessings and Shalom!

A Rod?

"And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:" Isaiah 11:1

Was this the first mention of Messiah? No not at all Genesis is apply named.

It is the beginning of all the Word.

"And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Genesis 3:15 This is the first mention of Messiah. He was the one born a descendant of Adam. The promise given to Eve! Mothers no doubt were looking for a deliverer to save them from the plight of sin. Even Eve's first children Cain and Able were looked upon as saviors. Seth did raise up the race, but he wasn't the promised Savior.

Messiah was the only one able to bruise the head of the Serpent HaSatan(the devil); when he became sin.

"For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of Elohim in him." 2nd Corinthians 5:21 His death did what seemed impossible but is was ordained. "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:", "For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Yeshua Messiah." "For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. " Romans 5:12, 17, 19.

One branch, the branch of mankind gave us sin, the other branch gave us life. The Remedy before the sickness is Messiah. John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim."

Yah's Blessings and Shalom
