ELOHIYM’S LOVE TOWARDS US

Part I
Purpose of study: To help form a sound understanding of El’s nature—to know what He’s really like, according
to the Scriptures. Being honest, ask ourselves: When thinking of Yahveh Elohiym, Elohey Avraham, Isaac,
Ya’akov, do you picture a very loving person? If not, or if you’re unsure, then something is wrong with your
picture of Elohiym and your conception of Him. This is plainly brought out through Scripture.

1 John 4:7-8 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of Elohiym; and every one that loveth is born of
Elohiym, and knoweth Elohiym. He that loveth not knoweth not Elohiym; for Elohiym is love. Someone
without charity does not know Elohiym. Why is love the main principle in both the first and second
commandments (the greatest commandments, upon which hang all the law and the prophets)? Why is our love
for each other the defining characteristic of a disciple (A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are My disciples,
if ye have love one to another. John 13:34-35). Why is charity given such importance? See 1 Corinthians 13,
greater than faith, hope, sacrifice, knowledge, prophecy, & tongues & without it all our efforts are in vain. The
answer to these questions is, “Because Elohiym is love.” This should be a central part of our understanding of
Elohiym’s nature.
This truth has been misused & distorted by many, who use it to excuse wickedness. These are good reasons
why El’s love doesn’t mean we can do any wicked thing we want & sin all we like:
1.) Sin marred creation & El’s not going to let sin mar paradise (that’d be unfair to the righteous).
2.) El is just & the source of all righteousness; therefore there are consequences for our actions. If you dive off
a three-story building for example there are results. If you reject El, you will end up fighting against Him, and
harming or hindering (in some way) most everyone you deal with.
3.) We have free will: we choose where we’ll go. Before Satan’s rebellion there was no hell; everything He
made was “tov meod” (very good). Hell was “prepared for the devil & his angels” (Matthew 25:41). Before
the rebellion, there was no need for it (Adonai is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to
repentance. 2 Peter 3:9) No one else had to go since it’s His will that all men be saved. (Who will have all
men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of truth. 1 Timothy 2:4), But not all will be saved, so the
reason must be our will. Elohiym will not force us to follow Him. He wants us to choose Him. (I call heaven
and earth to record this day and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love Yahveh Eloheyka, and that thou
mayest obey His voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto Him: for He is thy life, and the length of thy days: that
thou mayest dwell in the land which Yahveh sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give
them. Deuteronomy 30:19-20) He calls everyone. (For the grace of Elohiym that bringeth salvation hath
appeared to all men. Titus 2:11)
So, this study is not saying we can sin all we want, and it’ll be O.K. Rather, that El wants us to repent
because He loves us and that when a soul turns to Him, He won’t cast him out. (All that the Father giveth me
shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out. John 6:37) He’ll take us in, free us of
sin, hatred, pride, & lust, and make us what we were created for: holiness and divine nature. (Whereby are
given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature,
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 2 Peter 1:4) He’ll care for s and give us
everything we need, try us and correct us, deal with us and let us know Him. (And they shall teach no more
every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahveh: for they shall all know Me, from
the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith Yahveh: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember
their sin no more. Jeremiah 31:34) And when it’s all done we’ll go be with Him.
1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that Elohiym hath to us. Elohiym is love; and he that
dwelleth in love dwelleth in Elohiym, and Elohiym in him. Repeating Elohiym is love. Know this & believe it:
Elohiym loves us. How do we know it?

1
1 John 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of Elohiym, because He laid down His life for us: and we ought to lay
down our lives for the brethren. (Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his
friends. John 15:13) This is the ultimate. Do you know anyone who’d give their life to save yours? Not at the
spur of a moment but after careful thought. Well, if so, then they really must love you a lot.
1 John 4:19 We love Him, because He first loved us. Romans 5:6-8 For when we were yet without strength, in
due time Mashiyach died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a
good man some would even dare to die. But Elohiym commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Mashiyach died for us. He was first. He loved us when we were fighting against Him and running
from Him. (And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath He
reconciled. Colossians 1:21) Need a sign that Elohiym cares? What more do you need that the ultimate? Why
does Elohiym call us His wife? (Husbands, love your wives, even as Mashiyach also loved the church, and gave
Himself for it; Ephesians 5:25) Why does He call us His children? (Behold, what manner of love the Father
hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of Elohiym: therefore the world knoweth us not,
because it knew Him not. 1 John 3:1) Because He loves us. Every righteous man loves his wife; every
righteous parent loves his or her children.
Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Mashiyach: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Mashiyach liveth in me: and
the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of Elohiym, who loved me, and gave Himself
for me. Even closer: Elohiym loves, not just all of us collectively, but each of us individually. Each of us can
say & should believe this: “If I had been the only person who would have believed or followed Yeshua, He
would have died just for me, because He loves me so much. My life meant more to Him than His own life.”
We may see others blessed & afflicted while we aren’t; our Father is dealing with each of us on an individual
level. He may want you to give up something He doesn’t ask another to give up. In all of it, ask to know His
will, follow that, and know Elohiym loves you. (For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole
world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36) One soul is worth all the wealth of the world and is worth the life of
Yeshua.
“I am crucified with Mashiyach…” This is the essence of repentance: surrender all, everything on the altar,
to go up in smoke: (I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of Elohiym, that ye present your bodies a
living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto Elohiym, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1) Our life, our
body, our heart & soul, our goals, our will, our desires—offering them all up to Him, to let Him decide what to
take away, what to change. Tell Elohiym & offer it all to Him—tell Him He means more to you than anything
else or anything you desire. (And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto
themselves, but unto Him which died for them, and rose again. 2 Corinthians 5:15 Verily, verily, I say unto
you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much
fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
John 12:24,25 And He said to them all, If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his
cross daily, and follow Me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for My
sake, the same shall save it. Luke 9:23,24) Maybe Yeshua will give these things back—maybe He won’t. It
doesn’t matter—all that matters is to be close to Elohiym. If you’re not sure about something, ask someone else
to pray with you about what El wants; and be ready to forsake it if He says so. He won’t take from us anything
good for us, nor replace it with anything bad for us. Nothing is worth being away from Him or turning from
Him, even for a moment. So, lay your life down for Yeshua—tell Him, ask Him to take it, hold nothing back.
This verse (Galatians 2:20) shows how Christian life is designed to work: He loves us, and we enter into a
relationship with Him when we repent & totally lay down our whole life for Him. Give Yeshua everything—
even all your time. He wants that—Yeshua wants to spend time with us: with me – with you. This makes us
want to pray.

Part II
I am convinced that this is the most important message in the Scriptures: Elohiym loves us. This is the basis
of so much:

2
1.) Why did Elohiym create us? To have people with whom He could have a relationship. (But this shall be the
covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith Yahveh, I will put My law in their
inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be Eloheykem, and they shall be My people. And they shall
teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahveh for they shall all
know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith Yahveh: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I
will remember their sin no more. Jeremiah 31:33,34)
2.) Why did Elohiym give His life for us (me/you)? Because He loves us (me/you).
3.) Why did Elohiym give us His Word? To tell us about His love for us; to give us the Truth, (Sanctify them
through Thy Truth: Thy Word is Truth. John 17:17), to heal us, (He sent His Word, and healed them, and
delivered them from their destructions. Psalm 107:20), to wash us, (Husbands, love your wives, even as
Mashiyach also loved the church, and gave Himself for it; That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the
washing of Water by the Word, Ephesians 5:25,26), and to instruct & correct us (All scripture is given by
inspiration of Elohiym, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness: 2 Timothy 3:16 But whoso keepeth His Word, in him verily is the love of Elohiym perfected:
hereby know we that we are in Him. 1 John 2:5).
4.) Why does He reprove us? (As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Revelation 3:19 For whom Adonai loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth. If ye
endure chastening, Elohiym dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the Father chasteneth not?
But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. Furthermore
we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be
in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own
pleasure; but He for our profit, that we might be partakers of His holiness. Now no chastening for the present
seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto
them which are exercised thereby. Hebrews 12:6-11 But when we are judged, we are chastened of Adonai, that
we should not be condemned with the world. 1 Corinthians 11:32 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he
that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. Proverb 13:24) Because He loves us.
5.) Why does Elohiym want us to trust Him? Why did He call us? Why does He deal with us? Why does He
want to save us? Because He loves us!!! (In My Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would
have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2)
***A principle tactic of the devil, therefore, is to get us to not believe that Elohiym loves us & cares about us.
Hold onto the Scriptures: (Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7 But the very
hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. Matthew
10:31)

John 13:23 Now there was leaning on Yeshua’s bosom one of His disciples, whom Yeshua loved. Remember,
this is Elohiym in the flesh. (And he took them up in His arms, put His hands upon them, and blessed them.
Mark 10:16)
The same night Yeshua was arrested; then tried & crucified.
John 19:25,26 Now there stood by the cross of Yeshua His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of
Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. When Yeshua therefore saw His mother, and the disciple standing by, whom
He loved, He saith unto His mother, Woman, behold Thy son! Apparently, John was the only apostle to follow
Yeshua all the way to the cross. Reading the accounthe says nothing. What could he say? He probably just
cried, bewildered; no idea what was happening or why—only that “He’s dying! My Master is dying!”
Later he understood. After Yeshua rose & imparted the Spirit, the brothers began preaching; John could say,
“Yeshua died for me; I saw it with my own eyes.” Any doubts about Elohiym’s love for us can be destroyed by
imagining this event—as if standing there—Yeshua went through it all for you, because he loves you so much!
Ephesians 2:3-5 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling
the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But Elohiym,
who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath
quickened us together with Mashiyach, (by grace ye are saved;) (This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all
3
acceptation, that Mashiyach Yeshua came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 1 Timothy 1:15
But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the
righteous, but sinners to repentance. Matthew 9:13) Even to the chief of sinners, Elohiym calls, “Come back;
be My child—it’s all worked out.” (And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off,
his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. Luke 15:20) This is the
only place in the Scriptures where Elohiym is likened unto a man who is running. [Imagine someone who lived
with his father all his life and never saw him run—until that day.]
Elohiym will not force us to love Him—He stands at the door and knocks (Behold, I stand at the door, and
knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with
Me. Revelation 3:20) Forced or programmed love doesn’t exist. Elohiym wants us to love Him, as He loves us,
and so it was necessary to give us the ability to choose—free will, with knowledge that we can choose or reject.
So a human has power to say, “I’m going to live my life for me,” corrupting His gift. It’s the risk taken by
making free, self-aware creatures: they may reject you. Remembering that Elohiym works on an individual
level, we know He is grieved every single time a soul is lost. [Through man’s perspective: 1 person/10/1000—
becomes just statistics. But with Elohiym, 1000 of His created human beings.]
Luke 15:1-10 Then drew near unto Him all the publicans and sinners for to hear Him. And the Pharisees and
scribes murmured, saying, This Man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. And He spake this parable unto
them, saying, What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and
nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it, he layeth it
on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying
unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be
in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no
repentance. Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and
sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her
neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. Likewise, I say unto
you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of Elohiym over one sinner that repenteth.
(vs.10) Over one sinner that repenteth. Elohiym rejoices every time someone comes to Him & repents.
Instead of rejecting we can use our gift of free will to choose Elohiym: “Yeshua, I love You; I want to serve
You & give my whole life to You.” The devil doesn’t want us to give our love to Elohiym. One tactic is to tell
us He won’t accept it, we’re not on the right track (believing in a loving Savior) & we’re making it all up. “It’s
all emotions, not real.” But this is what we were created for: to love Elohiym and serve Him, while being loved
and cared for by Him.

Part III
1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that Elohiym hath to us. Elohiym is love; and he that
dwelleth in love dwelleth in Elohiym, and Elohiym in him.  Dwelling in the love of Elohiym. Seek Him for
the grace to do the things that please Him, to be His delight. It’s certain that we need to cast out our sins, but
who’s going to do that? Yeshua is. Trust in Him to work everything out; delight thyself in Yahveh (Delight
thyself also in the LORD; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Psalm 37:4), dwelling in His love
for us.
This can effect every major part of our life: (a correct paradigm) Note paradigm = an example serving as a
pattern, a paradigm of virtue // (gram.) a conjunction or declension serving to demonstrate the inflections of a
word par-a-dig-mat-ic [F. paradigme fr. L. fr. Gk fr. paradeiknunai, to show side by side]
1.) Our Witness: II Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Mashiyach, as though Elohiym did
beseech you by us: we pray you in Mashiyach’s stead, be ye reconciled to Elohiym. (“beseech” parakalountov,
and “we pray you” deomeya) Elohiym is pleading through us, “Come back; please come back.” Our ministry
is never to be turned into a debate team. We are not to preach Mashiyach out of envy or strife, but out of love.
(Some indeed preach Mashiyach even of envy and strife; and some also of good will: The one preach
Mashiyach of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds: But the other of love, knowing
that I am set for the defense of the gospel. Philippians 1:15-17 And the servant of Adonai must not strive; but
4
be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 2 Timothy 2:24). Our purpose as Yeshua’s ambassadors is not to
win arguments, but to offer souls the love of Elohiym & reconciliation. When speaking to the lost, remember
Elohiym loves them too and He died to save them, each one of them. We are not to confuse knowing who our
enemies are with being uncharitable. We know that we have enemies and it is important to recognize who they
are that impede the work of Adonai. But we should never forget to maintain charity in our attitude, our words,
and our works. Evil is evil and we cannot call good sin, but we should always remember to show love to people
with whom we deal. Using charity is not compromising with iniquity; bearing the standard is not accepting sin.
Having kindness and a charitable attitude with others does not mean we are to be wasting time with someone
that has no ears to hear the truth.
2.) Our Dealings With People & Persecution: Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of
Elohiym is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Christian life is letting the love
of Yeshua flow through us toward everyone else. Note this: the love that is shed abroad in our hearts is towards
every one else. (Let all your things be done with charity. 1 Corinthians 16:14) If everything we did was done
with charity, what a glorious thing that would be! Look at the importance of Christian love in 1 Peter 1:22
Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren,
see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently; and in 1 Peter 4:8 And above all things have fervent
charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. To serve, to give, and to help in His
love – this is the Christian life. (For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an
occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. Galatians 5:13) (Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a
seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of
fire, which hath a most vehement flame. Song Of Solomon 8:6) Love is as strong as death, no man can
overcome it, charity is invincible. How do you fight against it?
During persecution it is important to remember what Yeshua said in Matthew 10:16: Behold, I send you
forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. It is needful to
guard young souls from deception, but beyond that, we are to beware of but not fear men. Deal with them
wisely but also with kindness and charity. If they act mean, persecute, and rail on us we should not return evil
for evil, but rather deal with them with the love of Elohiym without compromise. Desire to see them repent, not
be destroyed.
Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my
course with joy, and the ministry; which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of
God. Paul is referring to persecution and affliction. If we are in love with Elohiym nothing that happens to us
will move us. Even if they kill us, we’ll suffer a little pain and then we will go to be with Yeshua. Elohiym has
called us to peace, not to be vexed, troubled, and worried about things. (But if the unbelieving depart, let him
depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but Elohiym hath called us to peace. 1
Corinthians 7:15) It is important that we give no occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. (I will
therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to
speak reproachfully. 1 Timothy 5:14) Their only accusation against us should be because they don’t like the
Word, not because we were uncharitable.
3.) Our Prayer Life: Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing: but in every thing by prayer and supplication
with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto Elohiym. And the peace of Elohiym, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Mashiyach Yeshua. The attitude of Elohiym is not,
“Oh, you again; What do you want now?” Rather, we should know and believe He loves us and delights in us
coming to pray to Him. He wants us to ask for good things. (Ask, and it shall be give you; seek, and ye shall
find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, who if his son ask bread, will he give
him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts
unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask
him? Matthew 7:7-11)
The freewill sacrifice is above and beyond tithes, sacrifices for sin, trespass, feasts, and such things. (If his
offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own
5
voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before Yahveh. Leviticus 1:3 Speak unto
Aaron, and to his sons, and unto all the children of Israel, and say unto them, Whatsoever he be of the house of
Israel, or of the strangers in Israel, that will offer his oblation for all his vows, and for all his freewill offerings,
which they will offer unto Yahveh for a burnt offering; Ye shall offer at your own will a male without blemish,
of the beeves, of the sheep, or of the goats. But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall
not be acceptable for you. And whosoever offereth a sacrifice of peace offerings unto Yahveh to accomplish his
vow, or a freewill offering in beeves or sheep, it shall be perfect to be accepted; there shall be no blemish
therein. Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto
Yahveh, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto Yahveh. Either a bullock or a lamb that hath
any thing superfluous or lacking in his parts, that mayest thou offer for a freewill offering; but for a vow it shall
not be accepted. Leviticus 22:18-23) It is something that we can offer as often as we wish. (Every man
according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for Elohiym loveth a
cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7) A sacrifice that we can offer to Elohiym in worship is prayer. We can tell
Him that we love Him. You are sure to get blessed, the more you sow the more you reap. Offer Him your
whole life. Tell Him you want Him to have it; He’ll accept it. He loves us and wants us to love Him. You can
even ask Him to cause you to love Him more (and more and more!). Look up (if you feel led); Talk to Him.
(And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, He looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the
loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided He among them all. Mark
6:41) (Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Yeshua lifted up His eyes,
and said, Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard Me. And I knew that Thou hearest Me always: but because
of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that Thou hast sent Me. John 11:41-42)
4.) Our Walk: 1 John 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of Him, because we keep His commandments,
and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. In this good state we want only to please Yeshua all the day
long. The things of the world should appear to us as empty and bleak. Since it is not about Yeshua, we have no
use for it. We should be hurling out of our life anything that Yeshua is displeased with, and doesn’t delight in.
False Christians ask, “Do you live this way to get saved, or because you’re saved?” I could get into technical
discussion… but more to the point: I live this way because I’m in love with Elohiym. (Or despisest thou the
riches of His goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of Elohiym leadeth
thee to repentance? Romans 2:4) Knowing He loves us can radically change our whole life.

Part IV
5.) Understanding of Scripture: The love of Elohiym can change our whole understanding of the Scriptures.
Verses take on new meaning. 1Peter 1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not,
yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. We can see Abraham’s relationship with
Elohiym in a whole new light. (But thou, Israel, art My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of
Abraham My friend. Isaiah 41:8) This can be and should be our relationship with Him. (At the beginning of
thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved:
therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision. Daniel 9:23) This understanding helps us to be
thankful. Our part is to lay our life down for Elohiym, seek after Him, and trust in Him. He promises to take us
in, take care of us, meet our needs, free us from sin, perfect us (albeit through trials), and bless us and love us.
Knowing He loves us can help us to not let our heart be troubled. (Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in
Elohiym, believe also in Me. John 14:1 For in Yeshua ha Mashiyach neither circumcision availeth any thing,
nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love. Galatians 5:6)
Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Mashiyach, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all
the fulness of Elohiym. Knowing His love is a key to being filled with what Elohiym has for us. It is past any
attempt to understand intellectually. You cannot explain it to someone that does not know it. But one can feel
it and know it. Luke 7:36-50 And one of the Pharisees desired Him that He would eat with him. And He went
into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat. And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when
she knew that Yeshua sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, And stood at
His feet behind him weeping, and began to wash His feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her
6
head, and kissed His feet, and anointed them with the ointment. Now when the Pharisee which had bidden Him
saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what
manner of woman this is that toucheth Him: for she is a sinner. And Yeshua answering said unto him, Simon, I
have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on. There was a certain creditor which had two
debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty. And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly
forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most? Simon answered and said, I suppose
that he, to whom he forgave most. And He said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged. And He turned to the
woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest Me no water for
My feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. Thou gavest Me no
kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss My feet. My head with oil thou didst not
anoint: but this woman hath anointed My feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are
many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to him little is forgiven, the same loveth little. And He said unto
her, Thy sins are forgiven. And they that sat at meat with Him began to say within themselves, Who is this that
forgiveth sins also? And He said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. What the woman
experienced in this account people have been experiencing for hundreds of years since—being overcome with
the goodness, love, and presence of Elohiym. This is a little taste of what heaven will be like. (But as it is
written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which Elohiym
hath prepared for them that love Him. But Elohiym hath revealed them unto us by His Spirit: for the Spirit
searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of Elohiym. 1 Corinthians 2:9,10)
Romans 8:38,39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers,
nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate
us from the love of Elohiym which is in Mashiyach Yeshua Adoneynu. Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be
without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor
forsake thee. We can see going though trials from a new perspective: “Elohiym loves me, He won’t fail me.”
(There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but Elohiym is faithful, who will not suffer
you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may
be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13) “Any need or burden I have I can take to Him.” If we see sin in our
life, regardless of how bad, it doesn’t mean that Elohiym doesn’t love us anymore. He’s seen it for a long time.
Ask Him for forgiveness and to cleanse us or whatever we need. Reproof is good for us; He reproves us not
because He doesn’t love us, but because He’s our Father (loving Father) in heaven.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Elohiym, and keep His
commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 1John 5:3 For this is the love of Elohiym, that we keep His
commandments: and His commandments are not grievous. The fear of Elohiym needs to be understood within
the context of His love. His fear is not anything like oppressive Nazi terror or intimidation—one little error and
He’s going to strike you down. No. The fear of Elohiym is clean, pure, holy, sober, sound: we don’t want to
sin against Elohiym. Those who sin presumptuously—knowing it’s wrong but couldn’t care less—show no fear
or love towards Elohiym. (For example Acts 5:1-11) These things are written to let us know that the love of
Elohiym doesn’t mean He can be mocked. (Be not deceived; Elohiym is not mocked: for whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7) However, those who commit themselves to Elohiym, who want
to follow and serve Him, even if they don’t know how to do it, Elohiym receives them. (For if there be first a
willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. 2 Corinthians
8:12) Offer yourself to Yeshua, learn to be sensitive to His voice and trust Him. He’s not looking for an
occasion to condemn us. He loves us.
Paul preached the gospel of the grace of Adonai. (But none of these things move me, neither count I my life
dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of Adonai
Yeshua, to testify the gospel of the grace of Elohiym. Acts 20:24) This is something that the other religions of
the world do not have. Yeshua is the Elohiym that loves us much more than all others. For example Islam,
False Judaism, Hinduism, Krishna, and so on, Yeshua leaves them all behind. “I’ll serve the God that loves me
the most.” No other religious text tells of a god who loved us so much that he gave his life for us. No human

7
could produce a greater love story than Elohiym, so the greatest divine love story must be Elohiym’s, and that’s
the story of Yeshua.

History of Elohiym’s Love For Us:

1.) Elohiym created humans in His image to love them and to have a relationship with them. For this reason it
is necessary to give them freewill, self-awareness, and knowledge of their own freewill—intending that people
would choose to love Him, as He loves them. Along with that ability to choose, however, comes the potential
to rebel and reject Him. The angels also have freewill. (Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou
wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Ezekiel 28:15 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of
the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine
heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of Elohiym: I will sit also upon the mount
of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the
most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Isaiah 14:12-15) The adversary chose
to rebel and some angels followed him. (And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast
them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her
child as soon as it was born. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Revelation 12:4,9) But most chose to stand fast by Elohiym and cleave to Him.
2.) Humans rebelled and fell and yielded to the devil who also rebelled before them. Since then Satan’s forces
have been fighting against Elohiym, and deceiving the whole world. (And I heard a loud voice saying in
heaven, now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of Eloheynu, and the power of His Mashiyach:
for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before Eloheynu day and night. Revelation
12:10)
3.) Elohiym calls us back. He still loves us and He’ll receive us back. (There is a point of no return, when
Yeshua knows it’s a waste of time to call someone anymore, as happened with Satan. But as long as Elohiym
is dealing with, calling you, and giving convictions, you can still come back and repent.)
4.) Elohiym in the flesh (Yeshua) came after us, in Person, to bring us back to Himself. He lived for us, for our
welfare, going through trials for us and with us, got hurt, hungered and thirsted, got wearied, bled, sweat,
grieved, wept—all for (and with) us. He then died for us (each of us), He did all of this to come after us and
save us, calling us back. Now He has committed unto His servants the gospel of reconciliation: “Just come
back; Stop running and turn yourself in to Elohiym. He’ll take you back. Give Him your life; everything will
be O.K. It’s all already worked out; Elohiym wants to be your Father.”

Conclusion:
We may not understand fully how we came to give our lives to Yeshua, yet here we are having
knowledge of what we are to do. Know & believe the love Elohiym has for you – saving you from sin and the
world. Being a part of Elohiym’s people – He is our Elohiym and He loves us.
We can and should use our freewill for what it was designed for, to present our bodies a living sacrifice unto
Elohiym and lay our life down for Him as He did for us. (I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of
Elohiym, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto Elohiym, which is your reasonable
service. Romans 12:1 And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves,
but unto Him which died for them, and rose again. 2 Corinthians 5:15) Give yourself to Him – tell Him, ask
Him to help you to do only His will and that which He delights in.
A blessing that you can experience is looking up, beholding the sky so large and wide. Elohiym is bigger
and greater. Consider His majesty, the greatness of the dreadful and glorious Elohiym, who formed all things.
As great as He is, the Almighty, powerful beyond our imagination… Looking up, hold on to that thought, and
remember this:
“He loves me. He died for me. I love Elohiym, too, and He delights in that. He has promised to cleanse me,
perfect me, and take care of me. I may suffer, and go through trying situations; but whatever I need, Elohiym
will give me. He may reprove me, and give me the rod; but that’s all because He loves me so much. I’m going
8
to live my whole life for Yeshua, and offer up everything in my life for Him, because all that matters is being
close to Elohiym. And when I’m all done with this life I’ll get to go to heaven. Yeshua is coming back for me.
When I see Him I’ll give Him a big hug! He will wipe the tears away from my eyes, and I’ll be with Him from
then on. Please come back soon Yeshua!”

Extra Verses:
Deuteronomy 7:7-9 Yahveh did not set His love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye
were the fewest of all people: But because Yahveh loved you, and because He would keep the oath which He had sworn unto your
fathers, hath Yahveh brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh
king of Egypt. Know therefore that Yahveh Eloheyka, He is Elohiym, the faithful Elohiym, which keepeth convenant and mercy with
them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations.

raiment.

John 13:1,34,35 Now before the feast of the passover, when Yeshua knew that His hour was come that He should depart out of this
world unto the Father, having loved His own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. A new commandment I give unto

John 15:9-13 As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you: continue ye in My love. If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide
in My love; even as I have kept My Father’s commandments, and abide in His love. These things I have spoken unto you, that My joy
might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is My commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

John 16:27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved Me, and have believed that I came out from Elohiym.

John 17:23,26 I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the would may know that Thou hast sent
Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me. And I have declared unto them Thy name, and will declare it: that the love
wherewith Thou hast loved Me may be in them, and I in them.

John 21:15-17 So when they had dined, Yeshua saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou Me more than these? He saith
unto Him, Yea, Adonai; Thou knowest that I love Thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. He saith to him again a second time,
Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou Me? He saith unto Him, Yea, Adonai; Thou knowest that I love Thee. He saith unto him, Feed my
sheep. He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou Me? Peter was grieved because He said unto him the third
time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto Him, Adonai, Thou knowest all things; Thou knowest that I love Thee. Yeshua saith unto him,
Feed my sheep.

I Corinthians 13:1-13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass,
or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all
faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and
though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth
not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh
no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all
things. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether
there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part, But when that which is perfect is come, then
that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but
when I became a man, I put away childish things. For know we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part;
but then I shall know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

II Corinthians 5:14 For the love of Mashiyach constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if One died for all, then were all dead.

II Corinthians 13:11,14 Finally, brethren, farewell, Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the Elohiym of
love and peace shall be with you. The grace of Adoneynu Yeshua ha Mashiyach, and the love of Elohiym, and the communion of the
Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Ephesians 1:4 According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame
before Him in love:

Ephesians 3:17 That Mashiyach may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love.

one another.

II Thessalonians 2:16 Now Adoneynu Yeshua Ha Mashiyach Himself, and Elohiym, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath
given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

10
Titus 3:4 But after that the kindness and love of Elohiym our Saviour toward man appeared.

I John 2:5,15 But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of Elohiym perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him. Love
not the world; neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

I John 4:9-12 In this was manifested the love of Elohiym toward us, because that Elohiym sent His only begotten Son into the world,
that we might live through Him. Herein is love, not that we loved Elohiym, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the
propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if Elohiym so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen Elohiym at any time.
If we love one another, Elohiym dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us.

Revelation 1:5 And from Yeshua Ha Mashiyach, who is the faithful witness, and the First begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the
kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood.

Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will
make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
