Epistle to the Gentiles

Greetings to All Gentiles of the Earth,

You have the opportunity to Repent of your Sins now before it’s too late. The Holy One of Israel, the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is patiently waiting for you to get your soul right with him so that you can gain Everlasting Life through His Beloved Son! It is time to let go of your Idols under the guise of all the religions (paganism) of the world! The Kingdom of Heaven is closer than you think; Repent and be Baptized in the True Name of the HOLY Father (I AM = AHHAYAH), His Son (Christ SAVIOR = Mashayach YASHAI), and the Holy Spirit (WISDOM = CHAAKAMAH)!

This is your opportunity to be grafted in by keeping the ways of the Most HIGH GOD! Remember this, to the Jews first then to the Gentiles; some of the Jews (natural branches) were broken off due to sin and unbelief, and as for you, you can be grafted in unto that same righteous tree as long as you keep the Righteousness (LAWS - Isaiah 51:7) of GOD and believe in His Son, Yashai (Savior) Christ, but dare Not to boast on those natural branches (The children of Israel) that were broken off because you risk being broken off (cut-off) also.

Behold, the Heavenly Father does not take pleasure in any lost soul (Ezekiel 18:23 & vs 32), but rather, He takes pleasure in every soul which come to the knowledge of His TRUTH. Study the Words of GOD and He’ll guide you through with the Holy Spirit (The Spirit of Truth, Wisdom, The Comforter)!

***Here are some Scriptures of Testimonies from Fellow Gentiles***

Assistance from Rahab at the Fall of Jericho

**Rahab Hides the Spies – Joshua 2:1-21**

Joshua 2:1-21 – Vs. 1.  And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot's house, named Rahab, and lodged there. 2.  And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country. 3.  And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country. 4.  And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were: 5.  And it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out: whither the men went I wot not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them. 6. But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof. 7.  And the men pursued after them the way to Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gate. 8.  And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof; 9.  And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you. 10.  For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed11.  And as soon as we had heard these things, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath12. Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father's house, and give me a true token: 13.  And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death. 14.  And the men answered her, Our life for yours, if ye utter not this our business. And it shall be, when the LORD hath given us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee. 15. Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the town wall, and she dwelt upon the wall. 16. And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way17.  And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear. 18. Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee. 19.  And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him. 20.  And if thou utter this our business, then we will be quit of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear. 21.  And she said, According unto your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window. 

***Promise Kept to Rahab – Joshua 6:22-23***

Joshua 6:22 – Vs. 22. But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her. 23. And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel. 

***The Faith of a Centurion (Roman Officer)***

Matthew 8:5-11 –  Vs. 5.  And when Jesus (Yashai) Christ was entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a centurion, beseeching Him, 6. And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. 7.  And Jesus (Yashai) Christ saith unto him, I will come and heal him. 8. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. 9. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. 10. When Jesus (Yashai) heard it, He marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel11. And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the Kingdom of Heaven.

***Christ’s Encounter with the Canaanite Gentile Woman***

Matthew 15:21-28Vs. 21. Then Jesus (Yashai = Savior) went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon. 22. And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto Him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil. 23. But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and besought Him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us. 24. But He answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 25. Then came she and worshipped Him, saying, Lord, help me. 26. But He answered and said, It is not meet (good) to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. 27. And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table. 28. Then Jesus (Yashai) answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

***Christ’s Encounter with the Samaritan Gentile Woman & the People of Samaria***

John 4:7-42 - Vs. 7. There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Christ Yashai saith unto her, Give Me to drink. 8. (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.) 9. Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. 10. Jesus (Yashai) answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of Him, and He would have given thee living water. 11. The woman saith unto Him, Sir, Thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast Thou that living water? 12. Art Thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? 13. Christ answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: 14. But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into Everlasting Life. 15. The woman saith unto Him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw16. Christ saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. 17. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Christ said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: 18. For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. 19. The woman saith unto Him, Sir, I perceive that Thou art a Prophet. 20. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21. Christ Yashai saith unto her, Woman, believe Me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the True Worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in Truth: for the Father seeketh such to Worship Him. 24. God is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. 25. The woman saith unto Him, I know that Messias (Messiah) cometh, which is called Christ: when He is come, He will tell us all things. 26. Christ saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am He27.28. The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, 29. Come, see a Man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ (Anointed/Messiah/Mashayach)? 30. Then they went out of the city, and came unto him. 31. … - 38. ... 39. And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did. 40. So when the Samaritans were come unto Him, they besought Him that He would tarry with them: and He abode there two days. 41. And many more believed because of His own word; 42. And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour (Yashai) of the world.

***Cornelius the Roman Gentile***

Acts 10:1-8Vs. 1. There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band2. A devout man, and one that feared (Loved) God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway. 3. He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius. 4. And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. 5. And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter: 6. He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do. 7. And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually; 8. And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

***The encounter between Peter the Jew and Cornelius the Gentile***

Acts 10:17-33Vs. 17. Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, 18. And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there. 19. While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. 20. Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. 21. Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come? 22. And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee. 23. Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him. 24. And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends. 25. And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him. 26. But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. 27. And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together. 28. And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. 29. Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me? 30. And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing, 31. And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. 32. Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. 33. Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God.

***The Gentiles hearing the Good News from Peter***

Acts 10:34-43 Vs. 34. Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons35. But in every nation he that feareth Him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with Him36. The Word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus (Yashai) Christ: (He is Lord of all:37. That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached; 38. How God anointed Yashai (Savior) of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him. 39. And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree: 40. Him God raised up the third day, and shewed Him openly; 41. Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with Him after He rose from the dead. 42. And He commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is He which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead. 43. To Him give all the Prophets witness, that through His NAME (SAVIOR = YASHAI) whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins.

***The Gentiles received the Holy Spirit; the Comforter whom Christ had promised He would send after leaving this world! ***

Acts 10:44-48Vs. 44. While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost Spirit fell on all them which heard the word. 45. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost Spirit. 46. For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47. Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Spirit as well as we? 48. And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord (YASHAI). Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

The GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is also your GOD, and He loves you as well. It is time to come back to your Creator by putting away your idol worship, unclean foods, and fornications, and instead keep His Righteousness which is His Laws, Statutes, and Commandments (incl. His Holy Feasts) and having the Testimony of His Son Christ Savior (Mashayach Yashai) because the Kingdom of Heaven is Very Near, Repent and be Baptized in the True Name of the HOLY Father (I AM = AHHAYAH), His Son (Christ SAVIOR = Mashayach YASHAI), and the Holy Spirit (WISDOM = CHAAKAMAH)!!!!

We pray this was edifying unto you.

Peace, Love, and Blessings,
