Yahshua Sustainer of All Things

Shalom In Yahshua and welcome once again to our study of Yahshua as revealed to us in  Hebrews 1:1-4. 
 
A Summary of the previous post entitled 'War In Heaven Conclusion.


1. That Satan was cast into the earth.
2. YHWH declares the end from the beginning.
3. In the beginning (at a time long ago) Elohim created heaven and earth.
4. The earth that He created was without form and void.
5. For He appointed it [the earth] as the foundations, with the waters above them.
6. The light that Yahshua caused to shine out of darkness is salvation. For Yahshua is salvation.
7. At the beginning of creation week was the unfolding of the Great Plan of Salvation.
8. The light of the knowledge of YHWH is Yahshua who is the Word.
9. Therefore the light of His word (at creation) speaks salvation to His elect and banishment and destruction to His enemies.
10. Therefore the decree and act of YHWH in casting Satan and his disloyal followers to this earth was the unfolding of  a prophecy of Satan's banishment and a harbinger of his doom.
11. The weeping prophet Jeremiah (Yeremiah) was shown in holy vision: the coming of Yahshua at the end of this world.
12. He was shown the earth; as destroyed by the presence of YHWH and His fierce anger.
13. The earth was shown to be without form and void.
14. The mountains trembled...and the hills, lo they moved lightly.
15. Satan and His angels will be put under solitary confinement upon this earth (in its 'without form and void') condition; for one thousand years. 
16. Satan and his angels will not be able to leave the planet.
17. After the thousand years are expired he would be loosed for 'a little season'. 

 Today's Teaching: 

We will look at the latter part of Heb. 1:3 together with the following verses: Col.1:12-22; Jn.3:3;1Cor.15:27-28

 Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; (Heb.1:3)

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. (Col.1:17)

 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare [it]: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.(Jhn.17:26)

Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.(Matt.27:50)

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.(Jhn.19:30)

And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; (Mat.27:51)

And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. (Lk.23:46)

By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; (Heb.10:20)

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.(1Jo.4:8) 

This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. (1Jo.1:5)

 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 

Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated [us] into the kingdom of his dear Son:  

In whom we have redemption through his blood, [even] the forgiveness of sins: 

 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 

 

 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 

 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 

 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence. 

 For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell; 

 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven. (Col.1:20)

 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (Jhn.1:1)

And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in [your] mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled  

In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: 

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  

For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. 

And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. 

From a selection of  the above Scriptures (shown in bold font) we understand the following:

1. That Yahshua upholds (in the present tense) 'all things' and that, by the word of His power. From this, we understand that Yahshua not only made all things (Col.1:16) but He continually exercises His power in upholding all things.

2. That only in Yahshua do all things consist ( band or hold together) [Strong's #G4921]

3. Since He is the Creator, Sustain-er, of 'all things'; and in Him all things consist (hold together); when on the Cross He cried out with a loud voice 'IT IS FINISHED Father into thy hands I commend my spirit' and gave up the ghost, we understand with the renting of the veil of His flesh from (His eternal Spirit that cannot die):

3a. Nature reverberated with His dying cry of victory.  3b.His shout of triumph went out to all heaven. Being the Creator of all things, He reconciled all things in heaven and in earth by His word & Sacrifice. (Col.1:20;Ps.19:1;Rom.5:10) for the word 'declare' in Ps.19:1 is Strong's #H5608 means to recount. (this recounting has several meanings but for the sake of this study we wish to keep to the deeper meaning in question.) With this position we submit the following:

     (3ai) God is light; and the heavens declare (recount) the  glory of YHWH.

              YHWH'S glory IS His righteous character (Ex.33:18;

              Ex.34:5-7)  

     (3aii) His Character is summed up in Love (1Jo.4:8)

     (3aiii) Since 'YHWH is Light' and the heavens declare/recount His glory and His 

                glory is His righteous character, and His character is 

                love; Therefore, the greatest manifestation of that love(Yahshua's death on The Cross of Calvary)

                was declared {Ps.40:10; Jhn.17:26;Ps.118:15}....as the Gospel, the Besorah, (Hebrew 

                for Gospel)[the Good News of Salvation] traveled from star to star from world to world and 

                all of creation were reconciled to YHWH {and all who accept this reconciliation to YHWH (through Yahshua Rom.5:10;2Cor.5:18; Col.1:21) will experience it in completeness when all things shall be put under Yahshua's feet (1Cor.15:24-25); Heb.1:13}. We do not say that they in the heavens had sinned; but that they, for the first time, saw the very depths of the synagogue of Satan (Rev.3:9) and his murderous machinations in putting to death the Commander of Shamayim (Heaven) Yahshua Ha Mashiach. The final bands of sympathy were cut loose; they became completely aware of the horror, and hate which Satan's lying wonders had carried him;  and this constituted the second casting down of Satan {click here for the first} (Jhn.12:31;Rev.12:10). We await the final casting down of this mighty angel, which will be at the end of his banishment; at which time he will bow(Isa.45:23;Rom.14:11) and declare the righteousness of YHWH in his destruction.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God [is] judge himself. Selah. (Ps.50:6)

We hope (with YHWH'S desire) to continue this study in the next post.

Until then............

Shalom and Ahava in Yahshua.
