MYHB - Teaching - Saved

Teaching - Saved

There is more confusion about salvation and what we are saved from. Again notarikon makes the meaning clear.

'His salvation' yasha ישע breaks into 'his flesh יע with the increase ש in his heart (in the middle of the word). His flesh; his body, is the church; the saved.

What distinguishes the saved is what is in their heart. The letter shin ש has one leg coming down and two returning. The right leg is God's word coming to earth. It returns on the left as two. This is the increase of the word.

The saved are those who have a love for the increase of the word. They have a love for teaching. The increase of the word represented by the shin ש also refers to those who have been taught by the word, or as mentioned previously, the bride or the church. It may be said that the saved are those who love the brethren.

When a rich man approached Jesus asking what to do to "inherit eternal life", Jesus equated it with "enter the kingdom of God". The men hearing him equated it with being saved. The answer was that only God could save you.

What then are you saved from? You are saved from being separated from God by ignorance: Elohim אלהים. What then? Are we saved by teaching? No! It would have been the greatest tragedy if Jesus had died on the cross and no one knew it. The cross was the culmination of his teaching of who the Father is.
