u may have been given a measure of understanding-
know that you are Israel
a marvelous work by the lord has been done on you and your fathers for
transgressing his law
and all the curses have fallen on you, and testify to you that you are God's chosen people...a whole nation (Judah and Jerusalem) taken into captivity
do not believe their lies, though you were taken from Africa you are not an African
they deceive their own to deceive you
they have taken crafty consul against us, and place up their images
we must come out of their idolatry
observe the lords feast days and be mindful of them, for we know not the day or hour of his visitation
and try to sustain from pagan worship
observe the true sabbath
we must go back under the law and accept our punishment with patience
knowing that Yashaya, the son of Ahayah has atoned for our sin while we walked in darkness
we must use this time of grace to refine yourselves to obeying the law and keeping the covenant so we can be found worthy
we where born under the curse but if we obey we will receive the promise which is to come
so let us not grieve the holy spirit that dwells in us by given in to sin
but know if you speak and do the truth
it will come to pass that your words and your ways will be a light in the dark that will offend others because it shows them to be in error
there for be wise as a serpent and as harmless as a dove
