In relation to the encouragement of the Sabbath called Feast of Firstfruits for the New Covenanters to mirror the LOVE of Y’shua and help complete His ministry, this is how: By rescuing as many as we can of the souls being herded to the slaughterhouse (Proverbs 24:11).
19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. MATTHEW 28
13 Dear friends, rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of the Messiah. 1 PETER 4
8 The one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. GALATIANS 6
St. Paul did his part. This is his testimony to the church in Colossus:
24 But part of my work is to suffer for you; and I am glad, for I am helping to finish up the remainder of the Messiah’s sufferings for His Body, the Church. 25 God has sent me to help His Church and to tell His secret plan to you Gentiles. 26-27 He has kept this secret for centuries and generations past, but now at last it has pleased Him to tell it to those who love Him and live for Him.

God’s Mandate to New Covenanters
18 When I say to a wicked man “You will surely die!” and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for his sin and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself. 20 Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did not warn him, he will die for his sin. The righteous things he did will not be remembered and I will hold you accountable for his blood. 21 But if you do warn the righteous man not to sin and he does not sin, he will surely live because he took warning, and you will have saved yourself. EZEKIEL 3
LOVE finds no pleasure in the death of anyone (Ezekiel 18:23, 32 and 1 Timothy 2:3) but rejoices when a sinner is raised from the dead. Read the Parable of the Lost Sheep, the Parable of the Lost Coin and the Parable of the Lost Son in Luke 15:1-32 to better understand this.
34 There are some who are ignorant of God. 1 CORINTHIANS 15
14 How, then, can they call on the One they have not believed in? How can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 17 …Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the Word of the Messiah. ROMANS 10
3 God our Savior …wants everyone to be saved and to come to know the truth. 1 TIMOTHY 2
60 Go and proclaim the kingdom of God. LUKE 9
7 Go to the lost sheep of Isra’el. As you go, preach this message: “The kingdom of heaven is near.” 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead [back to life], cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. MATTHEW 10
15 Go into all the world and preach the Good News to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. MARK 16
19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. MATTHEW 28
God died for souls. No offering to Him is sweeter than won-souls.
8 This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be My disciples. 16 …I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. JOHN 15
30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise. PROVERBS 11
God’s Call to the Lost
26 I am the Lord, the God of all people. JEREMIAH 32
22 Turn to Me and be saved, all you ends of the earth. ISAIAH 45
1 Walk before Me and be perfect. GENESIS 17
30 I will judge you, each one according to his ways… Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall. 31 Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. 32 For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live! 21 If a wicked man turns away from all the sins he has committed and keeps all My decrees and does what is right and just, he will surely live; he will not die. 22 None of the offenses he has committed will be remembered against him. [All will be forgiven.] Because of the righteous things he has done, he will live. 23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live? 24 But if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked man does, will he live? None of the righteous things he has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness he is guilty of and because of the sins he has committed, he will die. EZEKIEL 18
