Instructions about Worship
2 I exhort (strongly encourage) therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and one mediator between God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) and men, the man Christ Jesus (Mashiach Yahusha);
6 Who gave himself (Himself) a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
(NOTE: Gentiles (noun / adjective) = those who are not of Jewish descent or who do not believe in God [Yahuah]; heathen, pagan)
8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath (extreme anger) and doubting.
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety (self-control [and] discretion); not with broided (braided) hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array (display, jewelries);
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
(AMP Bible: 10 but instead adorned by good deeds [helping others], as is proper for women who profess to worship God.)
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection (submissiveness).
12 But I suffer not (But I do not allow) a woman to teach, nor to usurp (exercise) authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression (and fell into sin).
15 Notwithstanding (In spite of this,) she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity (love) and holiness with sobriety (self-control [and] discretion).

Judgment and Final Salvation
65 I am sought of them that asked not for me (Me); I am found of them that sought me (Me) not: I said, Behold me (Here I am), behold me (here I am), unto a nation that was not called by my (My) name.
2 I have spread out my (My) hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh (who walk) in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
3 A people that provoketh (The who continually to provoke) me (Me) to anger continually to my (My) face; that sacrificeth (sacrificing to idols) in gardens, and burneth (burn) incense upon altars of brick;
4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s (pig’s) flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 Which say, Stand by thyself (Who say keep to yourself), come not near to me; for I am holier than thou (you). These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth (burns) all the day.
6 Behold, it is written before me (Me): I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
7 Your iniquities (sins), and the iniquities (sins) of your fathers together, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Thus saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith (says), Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob (Ya’aqob), and out of Judah an inheritor of my (My) mountains: and mine elect (My chosen ones) shall inherit it, and my (My) servants shall dwell (live) there.
10 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
11 But ye (you) are they that forsake the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
12 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye (you) shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye (you) did not answer; when I spake (spoke), ye (you) did not hear; but did evil before mine (My) eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
13 Therefore thus saith (says) the Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye (you) shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye (you) shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye (you) shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye (you) shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And ye (you) shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord God (Adonai Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shall slay thee (kill you), and call his servants by another name:
16 That he who blesseth (blesses) himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of truth; and he that sweareth (swears) in the earth shall swear by the God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid (hidden) from mine (My) eyes.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye (you) glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem (Yerushalayim) a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem (Yerushalayim), and joy in my (My) people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath (has) not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect (My chosen ones) shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and their offspring with them.
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).

Judgment and Final Salvation (continuation)
66 Thus saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), The heaven is my (My) throne, and the earth is my (My) footstool: where is the house that ye (you) build unto me (Me)? and where is the place of my (My) rest?
2 For all those things hath mine hand made (For all these things My hand has made), and all those things have been, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah): but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth (trembles) at my word.
3 He that killeth (kills) an ox is as if he slew (killed) a man; he that sacrificeth (sacrifices) a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth (offers) an oblation (a sacrifice), as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth (burns) incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea (Yes), they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth (delights) in their abominations (extreme disgust).
4 I also will choose their delusions (illusions), and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake (spoke), they did not hear: but they did evil before mine (My) eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5 Hear the word of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), ye (you) that tremble at his (His) word; Your brethren (fellow believers) that hated you, that cast (threw) you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) that rendereth recompence to his enemies (who provides retribution to His enemies).
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
(AMP Bible: 7 “Before she (Zion) was in labor, she gave birth; Before her labor pain came, she gave birth to a boy.)
8 Who hath (has) heard such a thing? who hath (has) seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah): shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy (says your) God (Elohim; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
10 Rejoice ye (you) with Jerusalem (Yerushalayim), and be glad with her, all ye (you) that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye (you) that mourn for her:
11 That ye (you) may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye (you) may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12 For thus saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye (you) suck, ye (you) shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
13 As one whom his mother comforteth (comforts), so will I comfort you; and ye (you) shall be comforted in Jerusalem (Yerushalayim).
14 And when ye (you) see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
15 For, behold, the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shall be many.
(AMP Bible: 16 For the Lord will execute judgment by fire and by His sword on all mankind, and those slain by the Lord will be many.)
17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles (islands) afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem (Yerushalayim), saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), as the children of Israel (Yisrael) bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith (says) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases (dead bodies) of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh (a disgust to all mankind).

THE PROPER HEBREW NAME OF THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR
Isaiah 52:6 King James Version (KJV)
“Therefore MY PEOPLE SHALL KNOW MY NAME: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth (He who does) speak: behold, it is I.”
The word ‘God’ is a noun. It is not God’s actual name.
EXAMPLE: “He is my father. He drives me to school every morning. His name is Johnny Lim.”

(NOTE: YHWH (proper noun) = 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 the proper name of the God of Israel (Yisrael). יְהוָֹה (H3068) in tetragrammaton: יְהוָֹה (H3068) יְ (yod) ה (he) וָֹ (uau / waw) ה (he)

NOTES:-
1. SPELLING VERSION #1:-
Yeshua יֵשׁוּעַ (H3442 = He will save) is a shortened form of Yehoshooah / Yahushua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = God / Yah saves). EXAMPLE #1: Mike is a shortened form of Michael. EXAMPLE #2: Josh is a shortened form of Joshua.
2. SPELLING VERSION #2:-
Yehoshooah as spelt in this manner depicts Joshua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = yeh-ho-SHOO-ah) adds Hosea, יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H1954 = deliver / salvation). Therefore, Yehoshooah / Yahushua means God is Salvation God / Yah saves.
3. SPELLING VERSION #3:-
Yahushua as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yah יה / יָהּ (H3050) as in John 5:43).
4. SPELLING VERSION #4:-
Yahusha (יְהוֹשׁעַ) as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father and according to the original ancient Hebrew text spelling and pronunciation.
Yah יָהּ (H3050), + וָֹ (u) + שַׁ Sh + ע A = Yahusha (יְהוֹשׁעַ) which means Yahuah (God) saves (H3091). See the diagram below:-
(NOTE: Hebrew text is read from left to right)
יְהוֹשׁעַ (H3091 = God / Yahuah saves)

Having difficulties to discipline yourself to read the Holy Bible daily? Then you are in trouble! Stop deceiving yourselves!
WARNING from God (Yahuah) Himself: The Word of God (Yahuah) warned that if we do not have His word abiding (remaining) in us, then we are NOT believers (saved)! WAKE UP PEOPLE! Read John 5:38:-
John 5:38 King James Version (KJV)
And ye (you) have not his (His) word abiding in you: for whom he hath (He / Yahuah has) sent, him ye (Him you) believe not.

By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his (His) commandments.
James 1:22 King James Version (KJV)
But be ye (you) doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Galatians 6:7 King James Version (KJV)
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth (sows / puts in / plants / spreads), that shall he also reap (harvest / attain / get).

For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth (deceives, is deceiving) himself.

Colossians 2:8 King James Version (KJV)
Beware lest any man (Beware, otherwise others may) spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit (deception), after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ (following the elementary principles of this world, rather than following [the truth—the teachings of] Mashiach).
1 Thessalonians 5:11 King James Version (KJV)
“Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye (you) do.”

But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
That if thou shalt (you shall) confess with thy (your) mouth the Lord Jesus (Aḏon Yahusha), and shalt (shall) believe in thine (your) heart that God hath (Yahuah has) raised him (Him) from the dead, thou shalt (you shall) be saved.
John 3:3 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Jesus (Yahusha) answered him, “I assure you and most solemnly (seriously) say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the kingdom of God (Yahuah).”
Isaiah 52:6 King James Version (KJV)
“Therefore MY PEOPLE SHALL KNOW MY NAME: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth (He who does) speak: behold, it is I.”
