CLOTHED IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, MADE WHITE BY THE BLOOD!

Today I want to discuss the topic of having white robes washed in Yehshua’s blood when He returns.

There are over two billion people today who falsely believe that they have these white robes because they believe in a counterfeit gospel that is based on a make believe Jesus that was created from the lies of Saul of Tarsus.

They believe that they are saved because they confess the name of Jesus Christ with their mouth and say that they have given their hearts to Him and such.

They reject the very reason that He died on their behalf which was so that His Father’s Torah could be written in their hearts and in their minds.

They have not signed their part of the covenant by turning from their ways and turning to His path that would mold them in His image.

They have rejected the Torah that was given to us for this purpose.

This has been allowed by our Creator because He was calling out those who had a desire to be totally in agreement with Him and with His Son.

He called out and built the first fruits of His family from this era of time when satan was given partial dominion and these have become His temple.

Now His temple is built and He is moving on to phase two and satan will be bound for a thousand years.

He is calling forth the beginning seed of this second phase of His plan.

Tomorrow, June 12th, 2011, the sixth angel will begin to sound and the four messengers will be let loose out of the Great River Euphrates.

This will begin a 402 day period that will lead up to the 7th trumpet and the return of our Messiah.

Since the 6th trumpet is going to begin to sound, this would mean that the first 5 have already begun to be blown and they have.

It is just that the major destruction resulting from them is being held back for the elect’s sake as Yehshua prophesied it would be.

Sorry this is a repeat for some of you but I have to get this in this in for a platform for those listening for the first time.

Obliviously, there is much more to this but there is no way to fit all of it or even a tiny percentage of it into one video.

Today I want to discuss some of the instructions that He is giving on a physical plain to help us grow on a spiritual plain.

He wants to clothe us in His righteousness which begins with our genuine repentance and His applying the atoning sacrifice of His Son’s blood on our behalf.

This happens when we agree to bury our human nature and agree to turn to His path and walk with Him on it so that He can replace our nature with His nature.

He gave us some physical commandments to help keep us on His path that are designed to be a constant reminder of it to us.

One of these is the wings of cerulean blue tassels on the four corners of our garments.

We read this in;

Num 15:37-40

37 And YEHWEH spoke to Moses, saying,

38 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them to make themselves tassels in the wings or edges of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the tassels on the wings a twining or a braiding of cerulean blue:

39 And it shall be unto you for a tassel, that you may look upon it, and remember all of YEHWEH’s commandments, and do them; and that you seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you use to go a whoring:

40 That you may remember and do all my commandments and be holy unto your Elohiym.

In these videos where I am visible, you see the ribbon of blue on the front boarder of my head covering and robe.

This is not what these verses are referring to.

I will discuss head coverings and robes shortly but I will add that I do have blue tassels on the four corners of the head covering as well as on the two sleeves and the two outside edges of the robe which is what these verses are referring to.

I also wear them on the two sleeves of my shirt and the pant legs as well.

The next verse that I will discuss explains that we are to wear them on the four wings of our vesture.

Deut 22:12

12 You shall make yourself a fringe (twisted thread) upon the four wings of your vesture, wherewith you cover yourself.

Here Moses uses different terminology for the description of the tassels.

And the word for vesture is the word for covering.

Whereas in the book of Numbers, they are to be placed on the wings of our apparel or clothing.

In Deuteronomy, it does not say anything about them being cerulean blue but precept upon precept certainly lends to this.

For that matter, Moses does not even say what they are for in Deuteronomy so we have to use precept upon precept as we are commanded to do.

They are to serve the same purpose.

Numbers 15 tells us plainly what they are for and what a beautiful design indeed.

Plus, we can identify others who are trying to walk in the truth or at least appear to be trying to walk in the truth.

Wearing blue tassels certainly does not define one is walking in the truth, nor do any of the physical commandments, but they are indicators that they might be.

One thing that I know, if I see someone not wearing them, I certainly can assume that they have either rejected this commandment or they have never heard of it.

Those in the first group must not be listened to because they do not have the truth, they rejected it and you cannot reject it and continue to be fed additional truth.

They might possess another truth that they either got from YEHWEH before they were cut off, or from someone else who has a part truth or from satan because he has been busy setting up his counterfeits as well.

I am not going to go into great detail on the head coverings because I have posted another video entitled “HEAD COVERINGS” that addresses this subject in more detail.

This video also proves that the saints of old covered their heads as a sign of out ward respect to YEHWEH that He was their covering.

They are to be a constant reminder that as long as we are walking in agreement with Him, He is our rear guard, our fore guard and He has it all covered. He is our banner.

How beautiful these reminders are.

Plus, they challenge us to stay on the narrow path so that we remain in agreement with Him so that we do not lose His protective covering.

I do want to share with you a couple of verses about head coverings as they apply to today;

Isa 61:2-3

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of YEHWEH, and the day of vengeance of Elohiym; to comfort all that lament;

3 To appoint to them that lament Zion, TO GIVE TO THEM A HEAD COVERING FOR ASHES, the oil of joy for their lamentation, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of YEHWEH, that he might be beautified.

The reward for our lamentation over all of the wickedness that is done in our midst sounds pretty good.

He says that He is giving us a head covering so that we can be comforted and to be a reminder that He is calling us into His righteousness.

But do we wait for Him to give us this covering or do we cover ourselves in anticipation of it?

What did the saints of old do?

Yehshua certainly will return with His head covered. We read this just a few verses later;

Isa 61:10

10 I will greatly rejoice in YEHWEH, my soul shall be joyful in my Elohiym; because He has clothed me with the garments of deliverance; HE HAS COVERED ME WITH THE ROBE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, AS A BRIDEGROOM DECKS HIMSELF WITH A HEAD COVERING, and as a bride adorns herself with her adornments.

I highlighted the robe of righteousness because I will come back to this.

First, I want to point out these verses are a prophesy of Yehshua’s return when the tribes of Israel will be called back to their land and the first fruits will be caught up to meet Him for the marriage banquet.

There is a prophesy in Ezekiel that is a prophesy that talks of us having head coverings on our heads that is also referring to now.

The King James calls them tires in these two verses and back here in Isaiah they called the same word beauty in one verse and ornaments in the other.

The translators hid all of this because they did not want to wear head coverings I guess.

They certainly knew that the word meant head covering.

Ezek 24:22-26

22 And you shall do as I have done: you shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.

The bread of men is referring to feeding off of the things of this age that we are in.

23 And your HEAD COVERINGS SHALL BE UPON YOUR HEADS, and your shoes upon your feet: you shall not lament nor weep; you shall vanish your iniquities, and mourn one unto another.

24 As with Ezekiel, THIS IS A "SIGN" TO YOU: according to all that he has done shall you do: and when this comes, know that I am YEHWEH Elohiym.

In the previous verse Ezekiel had been told to not lament over his wife’s death because she was given to lies, just as we are to not lament over the coming destruction of all that opposes Him.

Uncovering our head is a symbol of mourning and lamenting in the Old Testament and it is to be so this day as well.

Ezekiel was commanded not to uncover his head and mourn, just as Aaron was commanded the same when my Father consumed His two sons for their abominations.

Prophesy is being fulfilled as I speak as I tell you to cover your heads and turn to Him and do not lament over those who will not turn from their abominations.

But mourn only for our own abominations as we turn from them.

And you should know that it is YEHWEH who is giving this.

This time is upon us.

25 Also, you son of man, shall it not be (that you lament) in the day when I take from them their fortified places, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their minds, their sons and their daughters,

26 He that escapes in that day shall come to you, to announce this to your ears.

This is happening. He has called me out of the captivity to cry out to you to turn from your ways and turn to His ways.

This prophesy is being fulfilled this day.

Flee from Babylon and let Him clothe you with His righteousness.

If you think that you are simply going to sew in some blue tassels and cover your head and put on a robe and be covered with His righteousness, you are gravely off the mark.

You must repent and turn to Him and His path with every ounce of your energy and stop eating the bread of this world.

You need to feed off of the unleavened bread of life and He will deliver you.

The true covering comes from Him. But our choice to cover ourselves is an outward sign of His covering and it is to be a constant reminder of the covenant that we have chosen to walk in with Him.

If you cover in hypocrisy, woe to you, just as woe to all who will not receive being covered by His righteousness.

Pretending will not deliver you.

You have to want this. You have to want to be made in His image. You have to want to be in His family. You have to want His righteousness to live in and through you.

I mentioned robes as a symbol of being covered by His righteousness.

The robes are an outer garment. Yehshua certainly wore them when He was here and He certainly will have one on when He returns.

And He certainly had tassels or fringes on the wings of His robe when He was here as well.

We read this in;

Matt 9:19-20

19 And Yehshua arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind Him, and touched THE HEM OF HIS GARMENT:

We read another example of this in Matthew 14:36 as well.

The word hem is the Greek word kraspedon which means fringe or tassel.

And the word used for garment is the Greek word himation.

It is used 26 times in the books of Matthew, John and Revelations.

It is translated as robe, cloak, vesture, garments and sometimes clothes.

If you look up its usage, it clearly is an outer covering.

Here is one of the times it is translated as both garments and clothes;

Matt 21:7-8

7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them THEIR CLOTHES, and they set Him thereon.

8 And a very great multitude spread THEIR GARMENTS in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and spread them in the way.

You tell me if they are spreading their shirts and pants or are they spreading their robes?

Yehshua will return with His robe dipped in blood.

This is symbolism that He will come to make war with those whom oppose His Father’s path and also that He will return with the saints, those who have washed their robes in His blood.

Obviously you have to have a robe if you are going to wash it in His blood.

I am going to give you a collection of verses describing the saints and their robes.

There are many more examples, especially in the Old Testament. These are just the ones from the book of revelations.

Rev 3:4-6

4 You have a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their ROBES; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

5 He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in a white ROBE; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before His angels.

6 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the called out ones.

Rev 3:18-19

18 I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and a white ROBE, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness do not appear; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Rev 4:4

4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white ROBE; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

Rev 16:15

15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his ROBE, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

And here are two verses showing that Yehshua will return wearing a robe as I read back in Isaiah that He would.

Rev 19:13

13 And He was clothed with A ROBE dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word (LOGOS) of Elohiym.

Rev 19:16

16 And He had ON HIS ROBE and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF Lords.

Maybe you want to claim that wearing robes was just for back then and Yehshua will be wearing one just because it is Him, and He is the Son of the most High and the elders are already in heaven and such.

Well, that is your choice. I am telling you what He is giving to me to give to you.

Just ask yourself why He wore one back then? And what do you do with these other verses? Just spiritualize them away?

There is an old saying; you are what you think about most.

All I think about is becoming His child and a priest in His kingdom.

These instructions that He has given us have helped me keep that charge, just as they were designed to do.

His design is perfect.

People scoff at me for my clothing; do you think that I care?

No, I pity them for not taking the time to learn the ways that their Creator gave them to teach them His character.

I think about what a wonderful world it would be if they had.

Again, if we simply clothe ourselves with white linen as an outward show, that would be hypocrisy, just as the Pharisees had their outward show and they were white washed tombs.

No, we must live the spiritual intent of the reason that He gave us these instructions, just as we must live the spiritual intent of all of His perfect laws and statutes.

He is restoring much truth; we must embrace it as we make ourselves ready for His Son’s return and it must become a way of life.

If you want to clothe yourself in white linen and not wash it in Yehshua’s blood to make it pure white, this would be a mistake and hardship will be coming your way.

You must sell out for His Kingdom.

As you can see from previous videos, I have put a boarder of blue on the front of my robe and head covering as well as I mentioned earlier.

This is not described in the instructions as such, yet it something that I feel that He has given me to do and might not be for everyone.

But the tassels are to be a part of it. They are commanded.

Also, He has led me to make a belt of purple and blue and crimson linen braided together.

This is in the instructions for the priests and we are called to become priests and kings, a holy people unto Him.

The crimson is a symbol of Yehshua’s blood that has been shed on our behalf.

The blue is a symbol of His Mitzvah or His commandments, just as it is with the tassels.

They are also to keep us from seeking after our own hearts and our own eyes which we used to go whoring after as well.

And the purple is a symbol of His righteousness and His glory and majesty that He is clothing us with if we continue walking with Him on His Torah or His path.

These are beautiful reminders to help us stay focused on His charge so that we will overcome with every breathe.

We must simply fight to not wear them in hypocrisy and they will help mold us in His image if we wear them in spirit and in truth with a desire to learn His holiness and His righteousness.

He is restoring that we should adorn ourselves as His children as an outward sign of bearing His righteousness and bearing His name.

This identifies who we have chosen to become.

As I said, the first step is genuine repentance and then it is a matter of continuing in that repentance until our change.

If we do, He is washing our linen and making it white as snow along the way with His Son’s blood.

Isa 1:18-20

18 I beseech you to walk in judgment, says YEWHEH: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

19 IF YOU ARE WILLING AND OBEDIENT, you shall eat the good of the land:

This is a big if and the next verse is the counterpart if you are not willing;

20 BUT IF YOU REFUSE AND REBEL, you shall be devoured with the sword: because the mouth of YEHWEH has spoken it.

Sounds like a good deal, especially when His Torah is a joy and a delight to walk with Him on.

Just ask yourself, what is the downside to having our Creator cover you with His righteousness and guide and protect and nourish you and your families?

There is no downside and the benefit package includes eternal life in His family.
