Turn back from captivity

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Question: are you living in captivity. This question may sound very strange to many.

But history tells us Yahuah sent His people into exile after many warnings given through His prophets for them to repent and to turn back from their sins.

Sometime later many of the people returned from exile in Babylon and Assyria whereby the remainder stayed behind. I’m sure the remainder that did not return back to the land felt it was much better in exile as they adopted to that culture. Sadly,some who returned brought back with them the Babylonian ways and this became part of their everyday life and religion.

Jeremiah the prophet warned the people in his time to “Come out of the midst of Babylon,” as Yahuah’s wrath was about to be released upon Babylon. Few did listen and fled. (Jeremiah 51:6 & Jeremiah 51:45)

 

 

 

 

Paul in his time also warned the people to “come out from among them and be separate, not to touch what is unclean so Yahuah can receive them and be His people. Was Paul talking about a spiritual Babylon. (2 Corinthians 6:17 & 2 Corinthians 7:1)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yahuah is calling out a people for Himself, through His Son. It all started when Yahuah told Abraham to come out of his father’s land (Genesis 12:1), again when Yahuah told Israel to obey His voice and to be His chosen people (Exodus 19:5-6), and Yahusha gives the final call to “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues (Revelation 18:4).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today, we are brought up in this system that our parents inherited from their parents, going back many years. Babylon, known as mystery Babylon, which includes Egypt and its religion.

Many of us have been awaken by the truth, realizing the lies we have inherited.

This is a high calling to all: To come out of this world of sin and to be separate or to be a set-apart people. (Psalm 80:3)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are in the world but we do not need to be part of the world and its sin.

Many may say “It is impossible to come out of this sinful system.” I thought at first it is impossible but after studying the scripture I realized it is religion that tells us it is impossible. In fact, religion encourages us to stay in this system.

The god of this world is money. Everything including religion is around money.

We have been in this system for a very long time which has become part of our everyday living and therefore seems normal to us.

Is it impossible to be set-apart or are we just comfortable where we are? Believe me, I’m in the same boat as those who have been awaken by the truth.

With many sacrifices and by His guidance through His Spirit, it’s possible. Would the Creator expect us to do something that is impossible! I really do not think so.

Think about this for moment and be honest with yourself.

Does my question still sound strange?
