1 | Yeshua, the Prophet of YAH's Enduring Torah

Many Christians, shaped by traditions of men from youth, believe Yeshua's fulfillment abolishes the Torah. Scripture refutes this error with divine authority. YAH declares in Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (NET):

"I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will speak to them whatever I command. I will personally hold responsible anyone who then pays no attention to the words that prophet speaks in My name."

Yeshua, this Prophet, carries YAH's words—ignoring Him invites divine judgment.

In Luke 10:25-28 (NET), a scholar asks Yeshua, "Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" Yeshua replies, "What is written in the Law? How do you read it?" When the scholar cites loving YAH and neighbor, Yeshua affirms, "Do this and you will live." Yeshua doesn't nullify the Torah; He upholds it as the path to life. Salvation is Law through Messiah, not Law versus Messiah.

Traditions of men—teachings dismissing the Torah as obsolete—contradict YAH's covenant. Yeshua, speaking only what YAH commands, embodies and clarifies the Law, guiding believers to obedience. His role as Prophet, foretold in Deuteronomy, demands we heed His every word, setting the stage for His teachings (see John 12:47-50). Will you follow YAH's Prophet or cling to human traditions?

2 | Yeshua, the Eternal Torah-Giver

Who spoke the Torah at Sinai? Many Christians assume the Law is obsolete, a relic of the "Old Testament." Yet scripture reveals Yeshua as its preexistent giver, unchanging in authority. Before Bethlehem, Yeshua was the Living Word, thundering YAH's commandments at Sinai (John 1:1-14; 1 Corinthians 10:4, NET). YAH declares:

"For I, YAHUAH, do not change" (Malachi 3:6, NET)

and Yeshua echoes:

"Yeshua the Messiah is the same yesterday and today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8, NET)

His immutability ensures the Torah's enduring standard.

Yeshua's incarnation doesn't replace the Torah—it personalizes it. As its author, He interprets it with divine credibility, saying, "I do nothing on My own initiative" (John 8:28, NET; cf. John 12:49-50). He keeps Sabbath, festivals, and commands, proving the Torah is livable (Matthew 5:18, NET). The Torah remains until heaven and earth pass, for Yeshua gave it and lives it. Traditions claiming the Law is abolished contradict His unchanging nature. Trust Yeshua's Torah—it's YAH's eternal word. Do you follow the Law He gave?

3 | Yeshua's Cross: Fulfilling YAH's Torah

Did the cross end the Torah? Many Christians assume Yeshua's death nullifies the Law, but scripture reveals it fulfills YAH's covenant. Yeshua's sacrifice embodies the Torah's shadows—Passover Lamb (John 1:29, NET), Atonement sacrifice (Hebrews 10:12-14, NET), and covenant blood (Luke 22:20, NET). His death satisfies the Law's penalty (Isaiah 53:5-6, NET), renews the covenant, and frees believers from sin's curse (Galatians 3:13, NET). YAH promised this:

"I will make a new covenant… I will put My law within them, write it on their hearts" (Jeremiah 31:31-33, NET)

The empty tomb seals this victory. Yeshua's resurrection proves the Torah's promises—He is the High Priest forever (Hebrews 7:23-27, NET) and firstfruits of restoration (1 Corinthians 15:20-23, NET). His blood shields believers from judgment, like Passover (Exodus 12, NET), and triumphs over Satan (Colossians 2:14-15, NET). The cross vindicates the Torah, unlocking its blessings for those who trust Yeshua. Traditions claiming the Law is obsolete misread His sacrifice. Do you see the Torah's power in the cross?

4 | Born Again: Torah and Spirit United

What does "born again" truly mean? Many Christians misread it as freedom from Torah, but Yeshua reveals it as covenant renewal. He declares:

"Unless a person is born of water and Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God" (John 3:5, NET)

Water, the Torah's cleansing Word, exposes sin and calls to loyalty (Ezekiel 36:25; Psalm 119:9, NET). The Spirit empowers this Word, transforming hearts to obey YAH's Law.

YAH promises this in Ezekiel 36:27 (NASB):

"I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances."

This isn't optional—YAH's Spirit compels believers to keep His commandments, fulfilling the Torah written on our hearts (Jeremiah 31:33, NET). Nicodemus sought ritual; Yeshua offered a new birth uniting Torah and Spirit. Water prompts repentance; the Spirit enables obedience (Romans 8:4, NET). Far from abolishing Torah, being "born again" makes Torah-faithfulness possible. Traditions claiming the Law is void contradict YAH's Spirit-driven plan. Will you let YAH's Spirit lead you to His Law?

5 | Yeshua the Prophet: Fulfilling YAH's Eternal Torah

Yeshua foresaw humanity's error and issued a command with eternal weight:

"Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill" (Matthew 5:17, NET)

"Do not think" is no mere suggestion—it's a divine rebuke, preempting the lie that His work ended the Torah's call to obedience. Many Christians, deceived by traditions of men, believe this falsehood, risking eternal damnation in the Lake of Fire rather than eternal life (Matthew 5:18-19, NET). The Greek plēroō ("fulfill") means to fully express—Yeshua embodies the Torah, confirms its truth, and clarifies its intent. No command fades until creation passes.

Yeshua's fulfillment proves He is The Prophet of Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (NET):

"I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will speak to them whatever I command. I will personally hold responsible anyone who then pays no attention to the words that prophet speaks in My name."

He fulfills this in John 12:47-50 (NET):

"If anyone hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him… He who rejects Me and does not accept My sayings has one who judges him: the word I spoke is what will judge him at the last day. For I have not spoken on My own initiative, but the Father… has commanded Me what to say… His command is eternal life."

"The word I spoke is what will judge him at the last day" echoes YAH's warning—rejecting Yeshua's Torah invites divine judgment.

First-century Israel knew this Prophet was coming. In John 1:19-21 (NET), priests asked John the Baptist, "Are you the Prophet?"—proof they awaited Deuteronomy 18's promised one. Their expectation mirrors this article's truth: Yeshua is The Prophet, upholding YAH's eternal Torah. Traditions claiming the Torah is obsolete defy His warning and judgment. Discipleship demands living and teaching His Law. Will you escape judgment by heeding Yeshua's "Do not think" and His Torah?

6 | Faith in Action: Obeying YAH's Torah

Is faith enough without obedience? Many Christians, misled by traditions of men, believe faith alone negates Torah, but scripture demands more. James 2:17 (NET) declares:

"Faith, if it does not have works, is dead, being by itself."

Biblical faith—pistis in Greek, emunah in Hebrew—is loyal trust that produces covenant action (Romans 3:31, NET). Abraham's faith was perfected by obedience (James 2:22, NET), and YAH's people keep His commands with faith in Yeshua (Revelation 14:12, NET).

Grace saves, not works, yet believers are recreated for Torah-keeping (Ephesians 2:8-10, NET). YAH's Spirit enables this, fulfilling the Law's righteous demands (Romans 8:4, NET). Obedience is love: "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments" (John 14:15, NET). Works are fruit, not wages—evidence of new life, not a means to earn salvation (Matthew 7:17-20, NET). They shine, drawing others to YAH (Matthew 5:16, NET). Traditions separating faith from obedience misread scripture. Does your faith obey YAH's Torah?

7 | Living YAH's Torah: A Holy Lifestyle

Yeshua, The Prophet, calls you to live Torah—how will you obey? Many Christians, misled by traditions of men, dismiss Torah as irrelevant, but YAH demands perfect obedience. YAH commands:

"You must be holy because I am holy" (Leviticus 11:44, NET)

echoed in the New Covenant:

"Like the Holy One who called you, become holy yourselves in all your conduct, for it is written, 'You shall be holy, because I am holy'" (1 Peter 1:15-16, NET)

Honor your body with kosher food laws, eating only what YAH permits (Leviticus 11, Deuteronomy 14:3-21, NET). Uphold sexual morality, rejecting impurity to keep your body set apart (Leviticus 18, NET). These laws make you holy, reflecting YAH's nature.

Reject man-made calendars: days begin at dawn—"Elohim called the light Day" (Genesis 1:5, NET)—not evening. Use numbered days (Exodus 16:5-26, NET), not pagan names like Saturday from the Gregorian Calendar. YAH's lunar-solar calendar tracks sun, moon, and stars (Psalm 104:19, NET). New Moon day, the month's start, is holy, marked by offerings (Numbers 28:11, NET) and worship (Psalm 81:3, Ezekiel 46:6, NET), not a work day (Isaiah 66:23, NET). The Book of Jasher 88:14-22 (Apocrypha) shows YAH's foreknowledge: Joshua marched from New Moon day, avoiding Sabbath work, proving YAH's design.

Keep Sabbath from dawn to dawn (Genesis 1:5, NET), celebrate feasts like Passover (1 Corinthians 5:7, NET), use honest measures (Leviticus 19:35-36, NET), teach Torah (Deuteronomy 6:7, NET), and pursue justice (Leviticus 25, NET). This holy lifestyle—rooted in both Testaments—refutes traditions of irrelevance. Will you live YAH's Torah to be holy?

Conclusion

Yeshua, The Prophet, fulfills YAH's Torah, writing it on our hearts through His Spirit (Jeremiah 31:33, NET). From Sinai to Calvary, from new birth to daily obedience, He calls us to live His eternal Law, rejecting traditions of men that dismiss its relevance. Scripture warns: "Do not think" the Torah is abolished (Matthew 5:17, NET), for Yeshua's words will judge us (John 12:48, NET). Embrace the Sabbath, kosher laws, feasts, and justice as a holy lifestyle, empowered by faith and love for YAH. This is no burden but a gift—life with YAH forever. Will you heed Yeshua's Torah, showing the world His truth through your obedience? Start today, for YAH's commands are eternal life.
