Internet or Fellowship
Shalam (Peace) unto you brothers and sisters:
The Sabbath Day which the most High God commanded as a day for our people to gather themselves as a holy assembly is approaching. In this modern era many neglect to “physically” fellowship with Israelite believers. Hebrews 10:25 “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” This is because they have been programmed to believe that they could replace this merciful blessing by internet resources. But what really happens is that they positioned themselves to be slothful, idle, vulnerable to (sin) their adversary the devil. Ecclesiastes 4:9 “Two are better than one [see Matthew 18:20]; because they have a good reward for their labour.” Verse 10: “For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.” Verse 11: “Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?” Verse 12: “And if one prevail against him [the devil], two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” We must remember that the most High is wiser than man and he is from everlasting to everlasting. He has seen our errors and warned us in advance of this mistake.
Lamentations 1:3 “Judah is gone into captivity [slavery] because of affliction, and because of great servitude: she dwelleth among the heathen, she findeth no rest: all her persecutors overtook her between the straits.” Verse 4: “The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn feasts: all her gates are desolate: her priests sigh, her virgins are afflicted, and she is in bitterness.” Your enemies mock you when they see you claiming to have woken up to your nationality (by remembering your past) but you’re still wandering and ensnared since you do not do what the most High commanded (to come to the solemn feasts) to be sanctified. Lamentations 1:7 “Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.” Through the internet we try to reach out to our people, we even hold online classes to introduce the truth to many of our people. Nonetheless if you sincerely desire the Kingdom then you must rehearse the righteous acts that will be done there. See, Isaiah 66:22-24. Our advice is always never to replace fellowship with the internet, since the Gospel (good news) is in the commandment. If there is none to keep the holy convocation (gathering) in your area reach out to us and we will assist you.
