The Kingdom Of Yahweh our reward

        From that time יהושע began to proclaim and to say, “Repent, for the reign of the heavens has drawn near.” Because of this we have to pay more attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away.  For if the word spoken through messengers proved to be firm, and every transgression and disobedience received a right reward,  how shall we escape if we neglect so great a deliverance, which first began to be spoken by the Master, and was confirmed to us by those that heard, Elohim also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Set-apart Spirit, distributed according to His own desire?  For it is not to messengers that He has subjected the world to come, concerning which we speak.  But somewhere one has witnessed, saying,“What is man that You remember him, or the son of man that You look after him?  “You have made him a little lower than the messengers. You have crowned him with esteem and respect, and set him over the works of Your hands. Yet You have made him a little less than Elohim, And have crowned him with esteem and splendour. You made him rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all under his feet, for us to be the praise of His esteem – those having first trusted in Messiah,  in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your deliverance, in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Set-apart Spirit of promise,  who is the pledge of our inheritance, until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His esteem. , and proclaiming the Good  News of the reign, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people. “Blessed are the poor in spirit, because theirs is the reign of the heavens. Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness’¹ sake, because theirs is the reign of the heavens Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens. seek first the reign of Elohim, and His righteousness, and all these matters shall be added to you “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Master, Master,’ shall enter into the reign of the heavens, but he who is doing the desire of My Father in the heavens“And I say to you that many shall come from east and west, and sit down with Aḇraham, and Yitsḥaq, and Yaʽaqoḇ in the reign of the heaven And יהושע went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their congregations, and proclaiming the Good News of the reign, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.

“And as you go, proclaim, saying, ‘The reign of the heavens has drawn near.’ “Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than Yoḥanan the Immerser, yet the least one in the reign of the heavens is greater than he. “But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of Elohim, then the reign of Elohim has come upon you. “And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then does his reign stand? And יהושע knew their thoughts, and said to them, “Every reign divided against itself is laid waste, and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand. When anyone hears the word of the reign, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is that sown by the wayside. The reign of the heavens has become like a man who sowed good seed in his field, The reign of the heavens is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field, “The reign of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until all was leavened.” and the field is the world. And the good seed, these are the sons of the reign, but the darnel are the sons of the wicked one, The Son of Aḏam shall send out His messengers, and they shall gather out of His reign all the stumbling-blocks, and those doing lawlessness, “Then the righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the reign of their Father“Again, the reign of the heavens is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man having found it, hid, and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. “Again, the reign of the heavens is like a man, a merchant, seeking fine pearls, “Again, the reign of the heavens is like a dragnet that was thrown into the sea and gathered some of every kind, And He said to them, “Therefore every scholar of Scripture taught in the reign of the heavens is like a householder who brings out of his treasure matters, renewed, and old“And I shall give you the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever you bind¹ on earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever you loosen on earth shall be having been loosened in the heavens.” “Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death at all until they see the Son of Aḏam coming in His reign  At that time the taught ones came to יהושע, saying, “Who, then, is greatest in the reign of the heavens?” and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become as little children, you shall by no means enter into the reign of the heavens. “Whoever then humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the reign of the heavens. “Because of this the reign of the heavens is like a certain man, a sovereign who wished to settle accounts with his servants. for there are eunuchs who were so born from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuch  יהושע said, “Allow the young children and do not stop them from coming to Me, for of such is the reign of the heavens.”  for the sake of the reign of the heavens. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.” And יהושע said to His taught ones, “Truly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter into the reign of the heavens. And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the reign of Elohim.” And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to Him, “Command that these two sons of mine might sit, one on Your right hand and the other on the left, in Your reign.” Then the Sovereign shall say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the reign prepared for you from the foundation of the world“The time has been filled, and the reign of Elohim has come near. Repent, and believe in the Good News.” And having appointed him a day, many came to him where he was staying, to whom he was explaining, earnestly witnessing about the reign of Elohim, and persuading them concerning יהושע from both the Torah of Mosheh and the Prophets, from morning until evening. strengthening the beings of the taught ones, encouraging them to continue in the belief, and that through many pressures we have to enter the reign of Elohim. proclaiming the reign of Elohim and teaching about the Master יהושע Messiah with all boldness, unhindered. But death reigned from Aḏam until Mosheh, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Aḏam, who is a type of Him who was to come. For if by the trespass of the one, death did reign through the one, much more those who receive the overflowing favour and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life through the One, יהושע Messiah. so that as sin did reign in death, even so favour might reign through righteousness to everlasting life through יהושע Messiah our Master. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires, For the reign of Elohim is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Set-apart Spirit. And again, Yeshayahu says, “There shall be a root of Yishai, and He who shall rise to reign over the gentiles, on Him the gentiles shall set their expectation.” For the reign of Elohim is not in speech, but in power. Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the reign of Elohim? Do not be deceived. Neither those who whore, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor greedy of gain, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers shall inherit the reign of Elohim. And the works of the flesh are well-known, which are these: adultery, whoring, uncleanness, indecency, idolatry, drug sorcery, hatred, quarrels, jealousies, fits of rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions,  envy, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and the like – of which I forewarn you, even as I also said before, that those who practise such as these shall not inherit the reign of Elohim. nor thieves, nor greedy of gain, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers shall inherit the reign of Elohim. But whoring and all uncleanness, or greed of gain, let it not even be named among you, as is proper among set-apart ones –  neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather thanksgiving.  For this you know, that no one who whores, nor unclean one, nor one greedy of gain, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the reign of Messiah and Elohim.  Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these the wrath of Elohim comes upon the sons of disobedience. so that we should no longer be children, tossed and borne about by every wind of teaching, by the trickery of men, in cleverness, unto the craftiness of leading astray,overthrowing reasonings and every high matter that exalts itself against the knowledge of Elohim, taking captive every thought to make it obedient to the Messiah, and being ready to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is complete.“He who believes in the Son possesses everlasting life, but he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of Elohim remains on him.”  But I am afraid, lest, as the serpent deceived Ḥawwah by his trickery, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Messiah.  For, indeed, if he who is coming proclaims another יהושע, whom we have not proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different Good News which you have not accepted, you put up with it well enough! “For many shall come in My Name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they shall lead many astray. “If anyone then says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe. “For false messiahs and false prophets shall arise, and they shall show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones. “I have come in My Father’s Name and you do not receive Me, if another comes in his own name, him you would receive. For I reckon that I am not inferior to the most eminent emissaries. But even if I am unskilled in  word, yet not in knowledge. Indeed, in every way we have been manifested among you in all matters.  and reckon the patience of our Master as deliverance, as also our beloved brother Sha’ul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him, as also in all his letters, speaking in them concerning these matters, in which some are hard to understand,¹ which those who are untaught and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do also the other Scriptures. For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. You, then, beloved ones, being forewarned, watch, lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the delusion of the lawless, Or did I commit sin in humbling myself in order to exalt you, because I brought good news, the Good News of Elohim to you without being paid? Other assemblies I robbed, by receiving wages from them to serve you.  And when I was present with you, and in need, I was not a burden to anyone, for what was lacking to me the brothers who came from Makedonia supplied. And in every way I kept myself – and shall keep – from being a burden to you.  It is a truth of Messiah in me, that this boasting in me shall not be stopped in the districts of Achaia.  Why? Is it that I do not love you? Elohim knows! I marvel that you are so readily turning away from Him who called you in the favour of Messiah, to a different ‘Good News,’ For, indeed, if he who is coming proclaims another יהושע,¹ whom we have not proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different Good News which you have not accepted, you put up with it well enough! which is not another, only there are some who are troubling you and wishing to pervert the Good News of Messiah. However, even if we, or a messenger out of heaven, bring a ‘Good News’ to you beside what we announced to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, and now I say again, if anyone brings a ‘Good News’ to you beside what you have received, let him be accursed. But know this, that in the last days hard times shall come.  For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, thankless, wrong-doers,  unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, haters of good,  betrayers, reckless, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of Elohim,  having a form of reverence but denying its power. And turn away from these! But evil men and impostors shall go on to the worse, leading astray and being led astray. “And because of the increase in lawlessness, the love of many shall become cold. He who does wrong, let him do more wrong; he who is filthy, let him be more filthy; he who is righteous, let him be more righteous; he who is set-apart, let him be more set-apart. For the earth has been defiled under its inhabitants, because they have transgressed the Torot, changed the law, broken the everlasting covenant. “But the message of יהוה you no longer remember! For every man’s message is his own word, for you have changed the Words of the living Elohim, יהוה of hosts, our Elohim! Thus said יהוה, ‘Thus I ruin the pride of Yehuḏah and the great pride of Yerushalayim. For as the girdle clings to the loins of a man, so I have caused all the house of Yisra’ĕl and all the house of Yehuḏah to cling to Me,’ declares יהוה, ‘to become Mine – for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for an adorning. But they did not listen.’ Again I shall bring a dispossessor to you, O inhabitant of Marĕshah. The esteem of Yisra’ĕl shall come to Aḏullam. “יהוה was very wroth with your fathers.“And you shall say to them, ‘Thus said יהוה of hosts, “Turn back to Me,” declares יהוה of hosts, “and I shall turn back to you,” declares יהוה of hosts. “Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying, ‘Thus said יהוה of hosts, “Turn back now from your evil ways and your evil deeds.” ’ But they did not obey or give heed to Me,” declares יהוה. “Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?  “But My words and My laws, which I commanded My servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers?” “Then they turned back and said, ‘As יהוה of hosts planned to do to us, according to our ways and according to our deeds, so He has done with us.’ ” ’ ”  On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sheḇat, in the second year of Dareyawesh, the word of יהוה came to Zeḵaryah son of Bereḵyahu, son of Iddo the prophet, saying,  “I looked at night and saw a man riding on a red horse, and he was standing among the myrtle trees in the shade. And behind him were horses: red, sorrel, and white.”  And I said, “My master, what are these?” And the messenger who was speaking to me said to me, “Let me show you what they are.”  And the man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, “They are the ones יהוה has sent to go throughout the earth.”  And they answered the messenger of יהוה, who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, “We have gone throughout the earth, and see, all the earth is at peace and rest.”And the messenger of יהוה answered and said, “O יהוה of hosts, how long would You have no compassion on Yerushalayim and on the cities of Yehuḏah, against which You were enraged these seventy years?”  And יהוה answered the messenger who talked to me, good words, comforting words.  And the messenger who spoke with me said to me, “Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus said יהוה of hosts, “I have been jealous for Yerushalayim and for Tsiyon with great jealousy.  “And I am very wroth with the nations who are at ease, for when I was a little wroth, they furthered the evil! ‘Therefore thus said יהוה, “I shall return to Yerushalayim with compassion. My house shall be built in it,” declares יהוה of hosts, “and a surveyor’s line be stretched out over Yerushalayim.” ’ “Again proclaim, saying, ‘Thus said יהוה of hosts, “Again My cities shall overflow with goodness. And יהוה shall again comfort Tsiyon, and shall again choose Yerushalayim.”. Because יהוה has compassion on Yaʽaqoḇ, and shall again choose Yisra’ĕl, and give them rest in their own land. And the strangers shall join them, and they shall cling to the house of Yaʽaqoḇ. Yisra’ĕl shall be saved by יהוה with an everlasting deliverance. You are not to be ashamed nor hurt, forever and ever. ‘For I am with you,’ declares יהוה, ‘to save you. Though I make a complete end of all gentiles¹ where I have scattered you, yet I do not make a complete end of you. But I shall reprove you in judgment, and by no means leave you unpunished.’ Do not fear, O Yaʽaqoḇ My servant,” declares יהוה, “for I am with you. Though I make a complete end of all the gentiles to which I have driven you, yet I do not make a complete end of you. But I shall reprove you in right-ruling, and by no means leave you For the displeasure of יהוה is against all the gentiles, and His wrath against all their divisions. He shall put them under the ban, He shall give them over to the slaughter,unpunished  Yisra’ĕl shall be saved by יהוה with an everlasting deliverance. You are not to be ashamed nor hurt, forever and ever. “And in the days of these sovereigns the Elah of the heavens shall set up a reign which shall never be destroyed, nor the reign pass on to other people – it crushes and puts to an end all these reigns, and it shall stand “Look, the eyes of the Master יהוה are on the sinful reign, and I shall destroy it from the face of the earth, except that, I do not completely destroy the house of Yaʽaqoḇ,” And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, have been grafted in among them, and came to share the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. And if you boast, remember: you do not bear the root, but the root bears you!  You shall say then, “The branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.”  Good! By unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by belief. Do not be arrogant, but fear. For if Elohim did not spare the natural branches, He might not spare you either. See then the kindness and sharpness of Elohim: on those who fell sharpness, but toward you kindness, if you continue in His kindness, otherwise you also shall be cut off.  And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, shall be grafted in, for Elohim is able to graft them in again.  For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more shall these who are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? And the gentiles, of those who are saved, shall walk in its light,¹ and the sovereigns of the earth bring their esteem into it. And I lifted up my eyes and looked, and saw four horns. Therefore a curse shall consume the earth, and those who dwell in it be punished. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth shall be burned, and few men shall be left. And even as they did not think it worth- while to possess the knowledge of Elohim, Elohim gave them over to a worthless mind, to do what is improper,  having been filled with all unrighteousness, whoring, wickedness, greed, evil; filled with envy, murder, fighting, deceit, evil habits; whisperers,  slanderers, haters of Elohim, insolent, proud, boasters, devisers of evils, disobedient to parents,  without discernment, covenant breakers, unloving, unforgiving, ruthless;  who, though they know the righteousness of Elohim, that those who practise such deserve death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practise them. Let no one deceive you in any way, because the falling away is to come first, and the man of lawlessness is to be revealed, the son of destruction,  who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called Elohim or that is worshipped, so that he sits as Elohim in the Dwelling Place of Elohim, showing himself that he is Elohim.  Do you not remember that I told you this while I was still with you? And now you know what restrains, for him to be revealed in his time. For the secret of lawlessness is already at work – only until he who now restrains comes out of the midst. And then the lawless one shall be revealed, whom the Master shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth and bring to naught with the manifestation of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,  and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth, in order for them to be saved. “And I also gave them up to laws that were not good, and right-rulings by which they would not live And יהושע said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those not seeing might see, and those seeing might become blind.” “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, so that they should not see with their eyes and understand with their heart, and turn, and I should heal them“So Elohim turned and gave them up to worship the host of the heaven, as it has been written in the book of the Prophets, ‘Did you bring slaughtered beasts and offerings unto Me during forty years in the wilderness, O house of Yisra’ĕl? Therefore Elohim gave them up to uncleanness in the lust of their hearts, to disrespect their bodies among themselves,  who changed the truth of Elohim into the falsehood, and worshipped and served what was created rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amĕn. Because of this Elohim gave them over to degrading passions. For even their women exchanged natural relations for what is against nature, and likewise, the men also, having left natural relations with woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing indecency, and receiving back the reward which was due for their straying. And even as they did not think it worth- while to possess the knowledge of Elohim, Elohim gave them over to a worthless mind, to do what is improper,  And for this reason Elohim sends them a working of delusion, for them to believe the falsehood, For among them are those who creep into households and captivate silly women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,  always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.  And as Yoḥane and Mamrĕ opposed Mosheh, so do these also oppose the truth – men of corrupt minds, found worthless concerning the belief;  Proclaim the Word! Be urgent in season, out of season. Reprove, warn, appeal, with all patience and teaching. For there shall be a time when they shall not bear sound teaching, but according to their own desires, they shall heap up for themselves teachers tickling the ear, and they shall indeed turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to myths. And many shall follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of,  and in greed, with fabricated words, they shall use you for gain. From of old their judgment does not linger, and their destruction does not slumber. For if Elohim did not spare the messengers who sinned, but sent them to Tartaros, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be kept for judgment,  and did not spare the world of old, but preserved Noaḥ, a proclaimer of righteousness, and seven others, bringing in the flood on the world of the wicked,  and having reduced to ashes the cities of Seḏom and Amorah condemned them to destruction – having made them an example to those who afterward would live wickedly,  and rescued righteous Lot, who was oppressed with the indecent behaviour of the lawless (for day after day that righteous man, dwelling among them, tortured his righteous being by seeing and hearing their lawless works),  then יהוה knows how to rescue the reverent ones from trial and to keep the unrighteous unto the day of judgment, to be punished,  and most of all those walking after the flesh in filthy lust and despising authority – bold, headstrong, speaking evil of esteemed ones,  whereas messengers who are greater in strength and power do not bring a slanderous accusation against them before the Master.  But these, like natural unreasoning beasts, having been born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheme that which they do not know, shall be destroyed in their destruction, being about to receive the wages of unrighteousness, deeming indulgence in the day of pleasure, spots and blemishes, revelling in their own deceptions while they feast with you,  having eyes filled with an adulteress, and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable beings, having a heart trained in greed, children of a curse,  having left the right way they went astray, having followed the way of Bilʽam the son of Beʽor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness,  but he was rebuked for his transgression: a dumb donkey speaking with the voice of a man restrained the madness of the prophet. These are fountains without water, clouds driven by a storm, to whom the blackest darkness is kept forever.  For speaking arrogant nonsense, they entice – through the lusts of the flesh, through indecencies – the ones who have indeed escaped from those living in delusion,  promising them freedom, though themselves being slaves of corruption – for one is a slave to whatever overcomes him.  For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Master and Saviour יהושע Messiah, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the first.  For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the set-apart command delivered unto them.For them the proverb has proved true, “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “A washed sow returns to her rolling in the mud.” But these blaspheme that which they do not know. And that which they know naturally, like unreasoning beasts, in these they corrupt themselves.  Woe to them! Because they have gone in the way of Qayin, and gave themselves to the delusion of Bilʽam for a reward, and perished in the rebellion of Qoraḥ.  These are rocky reefs in your love feasts, feasting with you, feeding themselves without fear, waterless clouds borne about by the winds, late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots,  wild waves of the sea foaming up their own shame, straying stars for whom blackness of darkness is kept forever.  And Ḥanoḵ, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied of these, saying, “See, יהוה comes with His myriads of set-apart ones,  to execute judgment on all, to punish all who are wicked among them concerning all their wicked works which they have committed in a wicked way, and concerning all the harsh words which wicked sinners have spoken against Him.”  These are grumblers, complainers, who walk according to their own lusts, and their mouth speaks proudly, admiring faces of others for the sake of gain. But you, beloved ones, remember the words spoken before by the emissaries of our Master יהושע Messiah,  because they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own wicked lusts.  These are the ones who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.  Therefore do not become partakers with them. then the end, when He delivers up the reign to Elohim the Father, when He has brought to naught all rule and all authority and power. For He has to reign until He has put all enemies under His feet. And this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood is unable to inherit the reign of Elohim, neither does corruption inherit incorruption. envy, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and the like – of which I forewarn you, even as I also said before, that those who practise such as these shall not inherit the reign of Elohim. . For this you know, that no one who whores, nor unclean one, nor one greedy of gain, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the reign of Messiah and Elohim. who has delivered us from the authority of darkness and transferred us into the reign of the Son of His love, See to it therefore that the light which is in you is not darkness. Therefore יהושע spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall by no means walk in darkness, but possess the light of lifeWho of you proves Me wrong concerning sin? And if I speak the truth, why do you not believe Me?  “He who is of Elohim hears the Words of Elohim, therefore you do not hear because you are not of Elohim.” The Yehuḏim answered and said to Him, “Do we not say well that You are a Shomeronite and have a demon?”  יהושע answered, “I do not have a demon, but I value My Father, and you do not value Me. “And I do not seek My own esteem, there is One who is seeking and is judging. to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light, and the authority of Satan to Elohim, in order for them to receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are set-apart by belief in Me.. also Yeshua who is called Justus. These are my only fellow workers for the reign of Elohim who are of the circumcision, who were to me a comfort. that you would walk worthily of Elohim who is calling you into His own reign and esteem. clear evidence of the righteous judgment of Elohim, in order for you to be counted worthy of the reign of Elohim, for which you also suffer, If we endure, we shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also shall deny us. In the sight of Elohim and the Master יהושע Messiah, who shall judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His reign, I earnestly charge you: And the Master shall rescue me from every wicked work and save me for His heavenly reign. To Him be esteem forever and ever. Amĕn! But to the Son He says, “Your throne, O Elohim, is forever and ever, a sceptre of straightness is the sceptre of Your reign. who through belief, overcame reigns, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Therefore, receiving an unshakeable reign, let us hold the favour, through which we serve Elohim pleasingly with reverence and awe, Listen, my beloved brothers: Has Elohim not chosen the poor of this world, rich in belief and heirs of the reign which He promised to those who love Him? for in this way an entrance into the everlasting reign of our Master and Saviour יהושע Messiah shall be richly supplied to you. I, Yoḥanan, both your brother and co-sharer in pressure, and in the reign and endurance of יהושע Messiah, came to be on the island that is called Patmos for the Word of Elohim and for the witness of יהושע Messiah. and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim, and we shall reign upon the earth.”And the seventh messenger sounded, and there came to be loud voices in the heaven, saying, “The reign of this world has become the reign of our Master, and of His Messiah, and saying, “We give You thanks, O יהוה Ěl Shaddai, the One who is and who was and who is coming, because You have taken Your great power and reigned. And I heard a loud voice saying in the heaven, “Now have come the deliverance and the power and the reign of our Elohim, and the authority of His Messiah, for the accuser of our brothers, who accused them before our Elohim day and night, has been thrown down.  And the fifth messenger poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his reign became darkened. And they gnawed their tongues from pain. “And the ten horns which you saw are ten sovereigns who have not yet received a reign, but receive authority as sovereigns with the beast for one hour. For Elohim did give it into their hearts to do His mind, to be of one mind, and to give their reign to the beast, until the words of Elohim shall be accomplished. And I heard as the voice of a great crowd, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying, “Halleluyah, for יהוה Ěl Shaddai reigns! And I saw thrones – and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them – and the lives of those who had been beheaded because of the witness they bore to יהושע and because of the Word of Elohim, and who did not worship the beast, nor his image, and did not receive his mark upon their foreheads or upon their hands. And they lived and reigned with Messiah for a thousand years Blessed and set-apart is the one having part in the first resurrection. The second death possesses no authority over these, but they shall be priests of Elohim and of Messiah, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. And night shall be no more, and they shall have no need of a lamp or the light of the sun, because יהוה Elohim shall give them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
