Romans 4:15

15 indeed the torah works wrath: for where no torah is, no transgression is.

1 Peter 2:1-25

1
AS NEWBORN INFANTS
So putting away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisies and envies and all slanders, 2 as newborn infants yearn for the undeceitful milk of logic to grow therein: 3 if ever you taste that Yah Veh is kind: Psalm 34:8 4
AS LIVING STONES
coming to him, a living stone; disapproved indeed by humanity but with Elohim, select, honorable; 5 and you yourselves, as living stones, are built a spiritual house - a holy priesthood to offer spiritual sacrifices, well-received to Elohim through Yah Shua Messiah. 6 So it is also contained in the scripture, Behold, I place in Siyon a chief corner stone, select, honorable: and whoever trusts on him never no way shames. Isaiah 28:16 7 So to you who trust, he is precious: but to them who distrust, the stone the builders disapproved this one became the head of the corner, 8 and a stone of stumbling and a rock of scandal to them who stumble at the word - who distrust: to which also they were set. 9 But you are a select genos, a sovereign priesthood, a holy goyim, a peculiar acquisition to himself; to evangelize the exultation of him who called you from darkness into his marvellous light: 10 who in time past were, Not a People, but are now, People of Elohim: who had been, Not Mercied, and now, Mercied. Hosea 1:6-9 11 Beloved, I beseech you as settlers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly pantings that war against the soul; 12 to have good behavior among the goyim: so that, wherein they slander you as evildoers, by observingyour good works, they glorify Elohim in the day of visitation. 13
SUBJUGATING TO GOVERNMENTS So subjugate yourselves to every creation of humanity for the sake of Adonay: whether to the sovereign as supreme; 14 whether to governors, as to them who indeed are sent through him to avenge evildoers, and for the halal of them doing good. 15 Because thus is the will of Elohim, that by doing good you muzzle the unknowingness of thoughtless humanity: 16 as liberated, and not regarding liberty; as a covering of malice, but as the servants of Elohim. 17 Honor all. Love the brotherhood. Awe Elohim. Honor the sovereign. 18 Housekeepers: subjugate to your despotes in all awe - not only to the good and gentle, but also to the crooks. 19 For this is charism: if for sake of conscience toward Elohim one endures sorrow, suffering unjustly. 20 For what fame is it, if you endure, when you are punched for your sinning? But if you endure, when you do good and suffer, this is charism with Elohim. 21 For even to this, you were called: because Messiah also suffered for us, leaving behind an example to follow his tracks 22 - who neither sinned nor was deceit found in his mouth: 23 who, being abused, replied unabusively; suffering, threatened not; and surrendered himself to him who judges justly: 24 who his own self took our sins in his own body on the staff, that we, being dead to sins, live to justness: by whose bruises you are healed. 25 For you were as wandering sheep - but now you returned to the Shepherd and Episcopate of your souls. Isaiah 52:14-53:12

2 Samuel 22:31

31 El - how integrious his way; the sayings of Yah Veh how refined - a buckler to all who seek refuge in him.

Luke 16:15

15 And he says to them, You justify yourselves in the sight of humanity; but Elohim knows your hearts: for what is high among humanity is abomination in the sight of Elohim.

1 Corinthians 2:1-16

1
PAULOS EVANGELIZES THE MESSIAH
And I also, brothers, when I came to you I came not with excellency of word or of wisdom, evangelizing to you the witness of Elohim. 2 For I judged to know naught among you, except Yah Shua Messiah and him staked. 3 And I became with you in frailty and in awe and in much trembling: 4 and my word and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom - but in manifestation of the Spirit and of dynamis: 5 that your trust not be in human wisdom but in the dynamis of Elohim. 6 But we speak wisdom among the completed/shalamed: - yet neither the wisdom of this eon nor of the archs of this eon who inactivate: 7 but we speak the wisdom of Elohim in a mystery, - the secreted which Elohim predetermined to our glory preceding the eons: 8 which none of the archs of this eon knew: for if they had known, they had never staked Adonay of glory. 9
THE SECRETED MYSTERY SECRETED
But exactly as scribed, Neither eye saw nor ear heard nor ascended to the human heart what Elohim prepared for them who love him. Isaiah 64:4 10
THE SECRETED MYSTERY UNVEILED
But Elohim unveils to us through his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all - yes, the depths of Elohim. 11 For what human knows those of a human, except the spirit of humanity within him? Even thus, those of Elohim, no one knows, except the Spirit of Elohim. 12 And we take not the spirit of the cosmos but the spirit of Elohim - so that we know those who granted charism to us by Elohim: 13 which also we speak not in the words that human wisdom doctrinates, but in that which the Holy Spirit doctrinates; co-judging spiritual with spiritual. 14 And the soulical human receives not those of the Spirit of Elohim: for they are foolishness to him: nor can he know, because they are spiritually judged. 15 But whoever is spiritual, indeed judges all; yet he himself is judged by no one. 16 For who knows the mind of Adonay, to coalesce him? And we - we have the mind of Messiah.

James 3:2

2 for we all stumble much. If anyone stumbles not in word, this one is a completed/shalamed man, also able to bridle the whole body. 3 Are you thus mindless? Having begun in Spirit, complete/shalam you now in flesh?

Ecclesiastes 7:20

20 for there is not a just human on earth, who works good and sins not.

1 John 1:9

9 whenever we profess our sins, he is trustworthy and just to forgive our sins and to purify us from all injustice:

Philippians 3:12-14

12 Not that I had already taken, or were already completed/shalamed: but I pursue, that if also I apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of the Messiah Yah Shua. 13 Brothers, I reckon not myself to have apprehended: but this one: indeed forgetting those behind and reaching to those ahead 14 I pursue toward the scope to the umpirage of the upper calling of Elohim in Messiah Yah Shua.

Romans 8:1-39

1
THE TORAH OF THE SPIRIT; LIFE IN THE MESSIAH
So there is now no condemnation to them who are in Messiah Yah Shua. *not in mss; but see 8:4 2 For the torah of the Spirit of life in Messiah Yah Shua liberates me from the torah of sin and death. 3 For the torah, being incapable, - frail through the flesh, Elohim sending his own Son in the likeness of the flesh of sin; and for sin, condemned the sin in the flesh: 4 to fulfill/shalam the judgment of the torah in us, who walk not after flesh, but after Spirit. 5
IN FLESH VS IN SPIRIT
For they being after flesh, think of the flesh; and they after Spirit, of the Spirit. 6 For the thought of the flesh, is death; but the thought of the spirit, life and shalom. 7 Because the thought of the flesh is enmity to Elohim: for it neither subjugates to the torah of Elohim nor indeed can. 8 So they who are in flesh, cannot please Elohim. 9 And you are not in flesh, but in Spirit whenever the Spirit of Elohim dwell in you. and if one has not the Spirit of Messiah, he is none of his. 10 And if Messiah is in you, the body is indeed dead because of sin; and the Spirit is life because of justness. 11 But if the Spirit of him who raised Yah Shua from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Messiah from the dead also enlivens your mortal bodies through his Spirit dwelling in you. 12 So then brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh - to live after the flesh. 13 For if you live after flesh, you are about to die: but if you, through Spirit, deathify the functions of the body, you live. 14 For as many as are led by Spirit of Elohim, are the sons of Elohim. 15
THE SPIRIT OF SONSHIP
For you take not the spirit of servitude again to awe; but you take the Spirit of sonship, wherein we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The self-same Spirit co-witnesses with our spirit, that we are the children of Elohim: 17 and if children, then heirs - heirs of Elohim - and indeed co-heirs with Messiah; whenever we co-suffer to also co-glorify. 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present season are not worthy of the glory about to be unveiled * in us. *verb of Revelation 19 For the intense anticipation of the creature awaits the apocalypse of the sons of Elohim. 20 For the creature subjugated to vanity - not voluntarily but through him who subjugated in hope, 21 so that the creature itself also liberates from the servitude of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of Elohim. 22 For we know that all creation co-sighs and co-travails in pain until now: 23 and not only they, but we also, who have the firstlings of the Spirit, even we also sigh among ourselves, awaiting the sonship - the redemption of our body. 24 For we are saved by hope: but hope seen is not hope: for why still hope for what one sees? 25 And if we hope for what we see not, thus we, through endurance, await. 26
THE INTERCESSORY MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Likewise the Spirit also co-helps our frailties: for we know not what to pray for according as we must: but the Spirit intercedes exceedingly for us with unutterable sighs. 27 And he who searches the hearts knows the thought of the Spirit, because he intercedes for the holy according to the will of Elohim. 28 And we know that all co-works to good to them who love Elohim, to them being the called according to his prothesis. 29
THE SEQUENCE OF THE PROTECTION OF ELOHIM
For whom he foreknew, he also predetermined - conformed to the icon of his Son, to his being the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And whom he predetermined, he also called: and whom he called, he also justified: and whom he justified, he also glorified. 31
NINE QUESTIONS, DIRECT AND RHETORICAL
So what say we to these? If Elohim is for us, who is against us? 32 - Who indeed spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how indeed, with him, grants he us not also charism with all? 33 Who accuses the select of Elohim? Elohim who justifies? 34 Who condemns? Messiah who died, yes rather, who rose - who is even at the right of Elohim - who also intercedes for us? 35 Who separates us from the love of the Messiah? - Tribulation or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or peril or sword? 36 Exactly as scribed, For your sake we are deathified all the day long - reckoned as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Rather, in all these we are exceedingly triumphant through him who loved us. Psalm 44:22 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life nor angels nor hierarchies nor dynamis nor the present nor the about to be 39 nor height nor depth nor any other creation can separate us from the love of Elohim in Messiah Yah Shua our Adonay.

1 John 1:8

8 whenever we say we have no sin we seduce ourselves and the truth is not in us:

2 Corinthians 12:9-10

9 And he said to me, My charism is sufficient for you: for my dynamis is completed/shalamed in frailty. So rather, with pleasure I boast in my frailties, that the dynamis of the Messiah tabernacle upon me. 10 So I well-approve in frailties, in hubris, in compulsions, in persecutions, in distresses for sake of Messiah: for when I am frail, then I am able.
