SCRIPTURES

1 My dear friends, many False Prophets are in the world now, so don’t believe every spirit, but test them to see if they are from YAHUSHA. 2 This is how you can recognise YAHUSHA’S Spirit. One spirit says, “I believe that YAHUSHA is the Messiah Who came to earth and became a man.” That Spirit is from YAHUSHA. 3 Another spirit refuses to say this about YAHUSHA. That spirit is not from YAHUSHA. This is the spirit of the Anti-Messiah. You have heard that the enemy of Messiah is

1 The people who believe that YAHUSHA is the Messiah are His children. Anyone who loves the Father also loves the Father’s children. 2 How do we know that we love YAHUSHA’S children? We know because we love YAHUSHA and we guard His commands. 3 Loving YAHUSHA means obeying His commands. And YAHUSHA’S Commands are not too hard for us, 4 because everyone who is born anew from YAHUSHA has the power to overcome the world. 5 It is our belief that has won the victory against the wor

1 Greetings from the Elder, to the lady (POSSIBLY IN ANOTHER ASSEMBLY?!) and to her children, chosen by YAHUSHA. I truly love all of you. And I’m not the only one. All those who know the truth love you in the same way. 2 We love you because of the truth that lives in us, which will be with us forever. 3 Favour, compassion, and peace will be with us from Alahim the Father and from His Son, YAHUSHA MESSIAH, as we live in truth and love. 4 I was very happy to learn about some o

1 Greetings from the Elder, to my dear friend Gaius, a person I truly love. 2 My dear friend, I know that you are doing well spiritually. So I pray that everything else is going well with you and that you are enjoying good health. 3 Some believers came and told me about the truth in your life. They told me that you continue to follow the way of truth. This made me very happy. 4 It always gives me the greatest joy when I hear that my children are following the way of truth. 5

1 Greetings from Jude, a servant of YAHUSHA Messiah and a brother of James. To those who have been chosen and are loved by Alahim the Father and have been kept safe in YAHUSHA MESSIAH. 2 Compassion, peace, and love be yours more and more. 3 Dear friends, I wanted very much to write to you about the deliverance we all share. But I felt the need to write to you about something else: I want to encourage you to fight hard for the belief that YAHUSHA gave his Set-Apart people. YAH

1 Greetings from Paul, Silas, and Timothy. To the Assembly of the Thessalonians, who are in Alahim the Father, our Master YAHUSHA MESSIAH. Favour and peace be yours. 2 We always remember you when we pray, and we thank YAHUSHA for all of you. 3 Every time we pray to Alahim our Father, we thank Him for all that you’ve done because of your trusting belief. And we thank Him for the work you’ve done because of your love. And we thank Him that you continue to be strong because of y

1 Brothers and Sisters, you know that we didn’t visit you for no reason. 2 Before we came to you, people in Philippi abused us, mocking us with insults and made us suffer. You know all about that. And then, when we came to you, many people there caused trouble for us also. But our Alahim YAHUAH still gave us the courage we needed to tell you of His Good News of deliverance. 3 When we encourage people to believe the Good News, it’s not out of wrong motives or crazy delusions.

1 We could not come to you, but it was very hard to wait any longer. So we decided to send Timothy to you and stay in Athens alone. Timothy is our brother and works with us for YAHUSHA to tell people the Good News about His deliverance. We sent Timothy to strengthen and encourage you in your trusting belief. 3 We sent him so that none of you would be upset by the troubles and pressure we have now. You yourselves know that we must have these trials. 4 Even when we were with yo

1 Brothers and sisters, now I have some other things to tell you. We taught you how to live in a way that will please YAHUSHA. And you are behaving that way. Now we ask and encourage you in the Master YAHUSHA to live that way more and more. 2 You all know what we told you to do by the authority of the Master YAHUSHA. 3 Alahim wants you to be Set-Apart. He wants you to stay away from sexual sins (whoring). 4 Alahim wants each one of you to learn to control your own body (posse

1 Now, brothers and sisters, we don’t need to write to you about times and dates. 2 You know very well that the day when the Master comes again will be a surprise, like a thief who comes at night. 3 People will say, “We have peace and we are safe.” At that time destruction will come to them quickly, like the pains of a woman giving birth. And those people will not escape. 4 But you, Brothers and Sisters, are not living in darkness. And so that day will not surprise you like

1 Greetings from Paul, Silas, and Timothy. To the Assembly of those in Thessalonica, who are in Alahim our Father, the Master YAHUSHA MESSIAH. 2 Favour and peace to you from Alahim the Father and Master YAHUSHA MESSIAH. 3 We thank YAHUSHA for you always (as we should), because you give us good reason to be thankful: Your trusting belief is growing more and more, and the love that everyone of you has for each other is also growing. 4 So we tell the other Assemblies of YAHUSHA

1 Brothers and sisters, we have something to say about the coming of our Master YAHUSHA MESSIAH. We want to talk to you about that time when we will meet together with Him. 2 Don’t let yourselves be easily upset or worried if you hear that the day of the Master has already come. Someone might say that this idea came from us—in something the Spirit told us, or in something we said, or in a letter we wrote. 3 But don’t be fooled by anything they might say. For that day of the M

1 And now, Brothers and Bisters, pray for us. Pray that the Master’s teaching will continue to spread quickly. And pray that people will give honour and respect to that teaching, the same as happened with you. 2 And pray that we will be protected from crooked and evil people. For not everyone believes in the Master, you know. 3 But the Master is trustworthy, and will give you strength and protect you from the Evil One. 4 The Master gives us confidence that you are doing what

1 Greetings from Paul. I was chosen to be a follower of YAHUSHA MESSIAH. Alahim chose me because that’s what He wanted. Greetings also from Sosthenes, our brother in Messiah. 2 To the Assembly in Corinth, you who have been made Set-Apart because you belong to our Messiah YAHUSHA. You were chosen to be Alahim's Set-Apart people together with all people everywhere who trust in the Master YAHUSHA MESSIAH—their Master and ours. 3 Favour and peace to you from Alahim our Father and

1 Dear brothers and sisters, when I came to you, I told you the secret truths of YAHUSHA. But I didn’t use fancy words or great wisdom. 2 I decided that while I was with you, I’d forget about everything except YAHUSHA MESSIAH and His death on the Torture Stake. 3 When I came to you, I was a bit unexperienced and weak and I shook with fear. 4 My teaching and my speaking were not with wise words that persuade people. But still the proof of my teaching was the power that the Spi

1 Brothers and Sisters, when I was there, I couldn’t talk to you the way I talk to people who are led by the Spirit. I had to talk to you like ordinary people of the world. You were like babies in Messiah. 2 And the teaching I gave you was like milk, not solid food. I did this because you were not ready for solid food. And even now you are not ready. 3 You are still not following the Spirit. You’re jealous of each other, and you are always arguing with each other. This shows

1 You should think of us as servants of Messiah, the ones YAHUSHA has trusted to do the work of making known His secret truths. 2 Those who are trusted with such an important work must show that they are worthy of that trust. 3 But I don’t consider your judgment on this point to be worth anything. Even an opinion from a court of law would mean nothing. I don’t even trust my own judgment. 4 I don’t know of any wrong I have done, but that does not make me right. The Master is t

1 I don’t want to believe what I’m hearing—that there is sexual sin among you. And it is such a dreadful kind of immorality that even those who’ve never known YAHUSHA don’t allow it. People say that a man there has even slept with his father’s wife! 2 And still you are proud of yourselves! You should have been filled with grief and sadness. And the man who committed that hideous sin should be put out of your group. 3 I cannot be there with you in person, but I’m with you `in

1 And how dare you take each other to court! When one of you has something against another, why on earth would you go to the judges in the law courts? The way they think and live is completely wrong. So why do you let them decide who is right? Why don’t you let YAHUSHA’S people decide who’s right? 2 Don’t you know that YAHUSHA’S people will judge the whole world? So if we will judge the world, then surely we can judge small arguments like this. 3 You know that in the future w

1 Now I will discuss the things you wrote me about. You asked if it is better for a man not to have anything to do with sex at all. 2 However because sexual sin is such a strong danger and temptation, each man should enjoy his own wife, and each woman should enjoy her own husband. 3 The husband should give his wife what she desires and deserves as his wife, and the wife should do the same. 4 The wife does not have power over her own body, for her husband has ownership and pow
