by Messianic Rabbi Ed Rothman
4) We must have faith towards G-d!

He (the L-RD) accounted it to him for righteousness."

- Deuteronomy 32:20 "I (G-d) will hide my face from them,
I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very perverse
generation, children in whom is no faith."
- Jeremiah
- Jeremiah 17:5-8 "Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man
that trusted in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart
departed from the L-RD. For he shall be like a tamarisk in the
desert and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the
parched places in the wilderness. a salt land not inhabited. Blessed
be the man that trusted in the L-RD. whose trust the L-RD is.
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters and that spread
out its roots by the river and shall not see when the heat cometh,
but its foliage shall be luxuriant; and shall not be anxious in
the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

name."

righteous by faith, we have peace with G-d through our L-rd Yeshua
the Messiah."
