Some in the Hebrew Roots, Messianic, Whole-Bible Believer, and other Movements have made telling others about the 'true pronunciation' of the name of God their primary objective and gospel. But why did God not reveal His name to Jacob when asked? (Gen 32:29) Rather, He firstly wanted His people to know Him by what He has accomplished. And perhaps that is why Salvation is His Name.

‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Out of jealousy and feeling threatened, certain Pharisees sought to discredit the character of Jesus by spreading many such false reports about Him. Instead of responding to His words, they hoped to turn everyone away from Him. In their attempt to murder Him, He was raised higher than any other name.

It seems everyone believes they are 'led by the Holy Spirit' - yet why do they say the Spirit is telling them contradictory things? One of the most concerning realities of the modern church, is the prevalence of 'Words from God', that God never spoke.

Why does it seem so common that Holy Spirit says different things to different people? What are the pitfalls of mistaking God's voice for our own?

Paul wrote that "The letter kills, but the Spirit gives life." While some of us have become skilled in explaining what his words do not imply, we have missed the key warning Paul is indeed delivering. This has been devastating for many. It has become acceptable to be considered religious while denying God's power. We consider radical love, unity and forgiveness as negotiable instead of inseparable from the meaning of 'believer'. This all is now so serious that it is infiltrating and destroying fellowships. The law is holy, but alone could not deliver Israel from sin.

One of the enemy's greatest deceptions is convincing believers that God has abandoned them, ignored them, or no longer cares. But it's time for us all to discern the voices - our thoughts, people's thoughts, and Satan's thoughts - only God's thoughts matter. We must fully understand and believe what He thinks of us, for that is our identity. When He seats us in heavenly places with Him in Christ, we must believe it. When He seals us with His Holy Spirit as a guarantee, we must believe it. When He calls us and gives us power over the impossible, we must believe it.

From one extreme to the next. It is true that some are too quick to consider almost everything a demon, but it just as true that some consider practically nothing a demon. Jesus, the greatest scholar, revealed that demons exist, inhabit people, can be cast out by Himself, and those with faith in Him. He taught about them, and there are numerous Biblical accounts of Him directly dealing with varying forms of demonic influence on people. As much as I wish it weren't the case, demons are still around, and keep people in bondage. We must not only know how to deal with them, but teach people how to avoid getting them in the first place. And since Jesus taught about them, may we break the worldly taboo of teaching about them? Demons prefer the status-quo, because it allows them to operate under the radar.

In the 1st century, the Promised Land didn't seem all it was promised to be. Israel is oppressed under Roman occupation and suffers much bondage. But on Shavuot (Pentecost), Yeshua does the unexpected: Instead of delivering His people to heaven, or setting up His reign on Earth, He brings His Kingdom into the midst of them by giving them the Holy Spirit. Yet today, many believers limit their salvation to an "escape-plan to heaven" from this world, instead of seeing salvation as about more than themselves: The salvation of the world (John 12:47) And understandably, when our trials increase in this world, our eagerness for that escape grows all the more. But perhaps it is for a time like this, that through the Holy Spirit, our eagerness for bringing His Kingdom down should increase all the more, so that multitudes may be saved.
