Who Was Abraham
to YHVH?
 by D. J. Love, Minister, TSN, SBC
Updated 10-26-2002
 Is it enough to be Abraham's physical seed?
We must understand that YHVH (The Creator) has chosen to replicateHimself 
(in Spiritual Character)
and therefore create
righteousness seeking
,Spiritually immortal children in "His Own
Spiritual Image
,"
(see "
TheMeaning of Life
")
.
The keywords here are "In His Own Image
!"
SinceYHVH has chosen to Spiritually replicate
(Spiritually procreate)
Himself inHis
own righteous image
(Ephesians 4:21-24)
,
then why did He chooseAbraham
?
Why not just create perfect
(incapable of sinning)
children from thevery start
,
and eliminate the middle man, so to speak 
?
Well
,
the answers arequite simple actually
.
You see
,
YHVH is
not
searching for Spiritually perfect people
(a false christopagan legalistic perspective)
.
YHVH is searching for  people that Spiritually desire
(seek)
to become perfect
(a Spiritual Intent)
.
Atfirst glance
,
this statement may seem to be a little strange to most of us, andway out of line with Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and even Judaism
(and tovarying degrees it is)
,
but the difference is simply one of attitude
(Spirit)
.
Additionally
,
perfect people
(by the letter of the law)
have no need of aMessiah, which further substantiates my position
.
Therefore, YHVH does
not
need for you or anyone to be covered
(hidden to the eyes of YHVH)
by the blood of Messiah Y'Shua
(and certainly not the Universal Greco-Roman JesusChrist)
in order to appear perfect when they are not
.
 
Is YHVH blind?Absolutely not!
YHVH sees all and judges the
"Intent of the Heart,"
andthe Spiritual
"Intent of the Heart"
can
not
be covered
(hidden)
by bloodsacrifice
.
The
Sacrifice of Messiah
 
(Click Title)
was
never
meant to
obscure
our true nature from YHVH and therefore make sinners appear to be sinless
!
The
"Sacrifice of Messiah"
was always meant to
"Change"
the Spirit or  Nature of those who believe in the Messiah's Ministry of Righteousness
 
from
a selfish spirit to a selfless Holy Spirit, and thus, cause us to ultimately become a sinless"
New Man
"in the eyes of YHVH
!
Not only will the oldselfish human nature no longer be visible to YHVH, but it will ultimately nolonger be visible to anyone, because it will simply no longer exist.
 
Click onverses:
Ephesians 4:17-32
;
Colossians 3:1-14
.
 Note:
Please try to understand that their are at least three entirelydifferent states of perfection
,
and I am talking about the ultimate
achieved state
of Spiritual Perfection
,
 
NOT
a
temporary state
or condition of being without sin
,
as a newborn baby
;
and I am certainlynot talking about physical perfection
,
as with being created with perfect DNA
,
as I am sure Adam and Eve were created
.
Even so,Adam and Eve were not perfect in the sense that they could resist alltemptation. Therefore
,
this message is about achieving the ultimatestate of perfection by emulating Messiah Y'Shua
;
because in YHVH'seyes
, perfection
is
not
a state of being sinless
;
it
is
a state of having a
righteousness seeking attitude of Love
(Holy Spirit)
for YHVH firstand YHVH's creation
(mankind)
second
(Colossians 3:1-14)
.These next few statement may, also, seem a little strange at first, but tryto stay the course anyway.
First of all
,
HE, who is
"Good,"
cannot
desire
to exist alone without becoming evil
.
Let me explain
; "Good"
can only be or remain
"Good"
when
"Good"
is being
performed
or 
planned!
Why
?
Because
"Good"
isan
"Outpouring"
of the
"Selfless Intent of the Heart,"
called
"Love."
 Now I ask you
,
how can there be an
"Outward Flow"
OR 
"Outpouring"
of 
"Good"
or 
"Love"
from within if there is
no
one present other than
"Self"
to receive this
outpouring?
 Note:
This is
not
to say that YHVH has
not
ALWAYS beenGood
(because He HAS always been good)
,
even before angels or humans were created
.
Why
?
Because YHVH ALWAYS
intended
 
(planned)
 to create Angels and ultimately man
.
Thisclearly shows why it is 'The Intent' of ones heart that is theindicator of Good
,
and
not
necessarily the Act
.
YHVH
,
sees the
 
"Motive" behind every Act
,
and so should we
.
I
,
also
,
submitthis understanding as being self-evident as to why YHVH's
"Plan of Salvation"
existed prior to creation itself 
.
For it was
within
the
"Mind of G-d"
that
not only
all of creation
"Pre-existed,"
but the Messiah
,
also
,
pre-existed
; not
as an entity
,
 but as a guaranteed
"Plan of Action."
Were we then createdimperfect
?
Absolutely not
!
We were all
(including Satan)
createdin perfection
(without Spiritual blemish)
,
but we were all allowedto make the freewill choice to become imperfect
(with Spiritualblemish or "Self-centered")
.
Being created "Perfect" does
not
 mean incapable of sin
,
it means to be blemish free at the start
(aclean slate, so to speak)
.
Even so
,
YHVH still does
not
expect usto be perfect
,
but
to desire to be perfect!
 
(Hebrew 4:12)
For within such a Holy Attitude
,
sin is
no longer
just simply sin
,
 but becomes a positive learning experience
(Romans 8:28)
.
It isthis Holy Attitude that YHVH seeks from All of His FutureChildren
,
because it is this Holy Attitude that will always bringabout a
"Turning Away From Sin!"
 
Additional Note:
 
(symbolism)
 
Water
 
(Spiritual Good or Love)
is poured, and
water
flows, therefore
water
is used as thementally visual symbol for the verses below
.
A
well
 
(a source)
of 
"Spiritual Water"
is used to express a
"Source of EternalLife"
that is imparted by
YHVH's Holy Spirit of Love.
John 4:14
(dual physical & Spiritual meaning)
14 but whoever drinks of the
water
(Holy Spirit or Character of Good orLove)
that I will give him will never thirst
(for Love and Acceptance byYHVH)
;
but the
water
 
(Holy Spirit or Character of Good or Love)
that Iwill give him will become
in him
a well
(a source)
of 
water
(HolySpirit or Character of Good or Love)
springing up to eternal life
.
"
John 7:38
 
(dual physical & Spiritual meaning)
38 He who believes in me
(Ministry of Messiah Y'Shua, as a Role model)
