John 3:2 This one (Nakdimon the Pharisee) came to Yahshua by night, and said to him,
“Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from Elohim: for no man can do these
miracles that you do, except Elohim be with him.”
John 1:38 And Yahshua turning, and seeing them following, said to them, “What do you
seek?” And they said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
As a teacher Yahshua led twelve students to whom he taught Torah and its applications.
There were also at least 58 others who followed him for a total of 70 (Luke 10:1, 17) or
later 120 (Acts 1:15). He also supervised their daily religious activities and their thoughts.
After washing the disciples feet: John 13:13 “You call me Teacher and Master, and you
say well, for I am. 14 Then if I, Master and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also
ought to wash one anotherʼs feet. 15 For I gave you an example, that you should do
as I have done to you. 16 Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his
master, nor is an emissary greater than he who sent him. 17 If you know these
teachings, blessed are you if you do them.”
Matthew 19:16 And see, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good shall I do
to have everlasting life?” = Mark 10:17, Luke 18:18. This man is asking to be taught. 17
And He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except One – Elohim.
But if you wish to enter into life, keep the commands.” 18 He said to Him, “Which?”
And Yahshua said, “You shall not murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall
not steal, You shall not bear false witness, 19 Respect your father and your mother,
and You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 20 The young man said to Him, “All
these I have watched over from my youth, what do I still lack?” 21 Yahshua said to him,
“If you wish to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you shall
have treasure in heaven. And come, follow Me.” 22 And when the young man heard the
word, he went away sad, because he had many possessions. 23 And Yahshua said to His
taught ones, “Truly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter into the reign
of the heavens. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye
of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of Elohim.” 25 And when
His taught ones heard it, they were very astonished, saying, “Who then is able to be saved?”
26 And looking intently Yahshua said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with
Elohim all is possible.”
Matthew 17:24 And when they came into Kephar Nahum, those who received the tax
came to Kepha and said, “Does your Teacher not pay the tax?” 25 He said, “Yea.” And
when he came into the house, Yahshua spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think,
Shimon? From whom do the sovereigns of the earth take toll or tax, from their own
sons or from the strangers?” 26 Kepha then said to Him, “From the strangers.” Yahshua
said to him, “Then the sons are exempt. 27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to
the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have
opened its mouth, you shall find a piece of money. Take that and give it to them for
Me and you.”

Matthew 23:5 “And they do all their works to be seen by men, and they make their
tfillen wide and lengthen the tzitziyot of their garments, 6 ... and they love the best
place at feasts, and the best seats in the congregations, 7 and the greetings in the
market-places, and to be called by men, ‘Rabbi, Rabbi.ʼ 8 But you, do not be called
‘Rabbi,ʼ for One is your Teacher, the Messiah, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not
call anyone on earth your father, for One is your Father, He who is in the heavens.
10 Neither be called leaders, for One is your Leader, the Messiah. 11 But the greatest
among you shall be your servant. 12 And whoever exalts himself shall be humbled,
and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.”
Matthew 26:17 And on the first day of Unleavened Bread the taught ones came to
Yahshua, saying to Him, “Where do You wish us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
18 And He said, “Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, The Teacher says,
My time is near. I am to observe the Passover at your house with My taught ones.” 19 And the taught ones did as Yahshua had ordered them, and prepared the Passover.
Mark 12:28 And one of the scribes coming near, hearing them reasoning together,
knowing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the first command of all?”
29 And Yahshua answered him, “The first of all the commands is, Hear, Yisrael,
ASSEMBLY OF YAHWEH IN JAMAICA Dear Pastor Graham, family and Brethren in Yahshua;
Shalom, love with mercy and grace be richly multiplied from our Father Yahweh and
from our Saviour Yahshua. Trusting this letter finds you all well and prospering in the
grace of Father Yahweh, looking unto Yahshua the Author and Finisher of our Faith.
The Brotherhood here is well, with some of our Seniors over 90 years old, but still up
and about. Pastor Henlon is 92 years, not ministering again, but still moving about with
strength. The work here is under the leadership of Pastor Richard Gallimore, nephew of
Sister Naomi of Canada, myself, and Deacons and Deaconesses.
There are 7 Assemblies in our fellowship across Jamaica. The work is prospering by
Yahweh’s grace. On November 22, 2015, the Assembly brethren from Granville and
Spring Hill, using a Coach that the Assembly recently purchased visited the Community
of Epsom in the Parish of St. Mary on a Mission for Yahweh, to view a piece of land
donated by Sister Duncan for the purpose of erecting an Assembly building. We then went
in two groups, walking through the Community speaking with people and handing out
tracts and inviting them to an Open Air Street meeting which was held in the Community
Square.
The outdoor service was well attended by persons from the community who came out
to hear the Word of Yahweh. Several persons came for prayer and anointing with oil and
requested that we visit again soon. This is a Mission that I am leading with support from
ministers and brethren for Father Yahweh and for the salvation of souls. I’ve found it a
joy and satisfaction to be on business for our King.
On behalf of the Assembly of Yahweh here in Jamaica, we extend thanks to you and
the Assembly there for the Bibles sent. We received them in good condition. We will be
sharing some to believers at Epsom, St. Mary.
Feast of Tabernacles 2015 was truly a love filled Feast for the eight days. We began
celebration with songs of praise to honor of His Great Name and that of His Son Yahshua.
We had early morning services and night services. On the third night we went to Sherwood,
a neighboring community for an outdoor service. It was truly a great blessing to witness
and share His words with others. We had five persons immersed on Sunday, October 4,
2015 at Reserve River in Trelawny, one sister and four brothers. The Last Great Day of
thanksgiving to Father Yahweh was truly awesome as we adjourned by forming a large
ring and holding hands, we sang Blest Be the Tie That Binds. Pastor Gallimore prayed and
we adjourned with blessings of joy. It was a great and memorable Feast, to Yahweh we
give praise.
Greet the brethren there for us, and thanks again for the support for the Work here.
Let us continue to pray one for the other and keep looking up with Hope.
Shalom and Love,
Elder Winston Hines and the Assembly of Yahweh in Jamaica

LETTER TO THE FAITH
Dear Brothers;
Shalom. Greetings in the sacred name of Yahweh. The Faith magazine has a great
great witness in these last days of the Babylon. It has changed many souls knowingly and
unknowingly, and brought those souls to the coming garden of Messiah.
This is my life experience. I heard from my dad that Elder Dodd and Dugger came to
India and reported many good experiences. I wrote a letter when I was studying 10th class;
maybe that was in the year of 1972, I think. It was published in the magazine too. [The
Faith 1986 records show a letter from Solomon Raju P.] Now I come to years. We are
still keeping each and every commandment with the help of Yahweh the creator and
provider.
I am very happy to say that we are giving some sermons on local TV. Our forefathers
gave us the priceless truth which no one in the world can deny. We are at very end. The
king of Assure is building his army to fulfil the prophecy and to finish his duty. The sons
of Joseph, Princes of Ephraim and Manasseh (USA and Britain) lost the help of Yahweh,
slipped away from the truth, lost the blessing of riches and every thing. Pope settled the
matter with Cuba and USA. The New World Order (one currency, one ruling, one religion)
came. The Sunday law came into existence. Persecution is getting started as the currency
war between countries has begun. Many righteous are being troubled. Pagan worship is
at sky level. People are not able to decide what is right and what is wrong. People are fond
of food and sexual relations. What not. Business on human organs of an infant (even days
old) is at high level.
Note: This is my second letter. I wrote one letter in 1972 (1986?) and second in 2016.
I am closing my letter of appreciation. I wish to see all of our headquarter members if
Yahweh willing. Anyway, we all meet when Messiah comes. If he is willing we will all
be raised. Surely we will be raised. Halleluyah.
Closing this mail, it is my prayer that Yahweh would bless all the people of The Faith
Magazine who work hard in supplying and distributing this booklet. Many people depend
on this calendar. May Yahweh bless you all.
Shalom,
Pr. Punuri Solomon Raju

[Romans 8:11 – But if the Spirit of him that raised up Yahshua from the dead dwell
in you, he that raised up the Messiah from the dead shall also quicken your mortal
bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 1 Corinthians 15:52 – In a moment, in the
twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall
be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.]

YAHSHUA’S JEWELS
Yahshua’s Young People
“Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.”
(1 Tim 4:12)
We all feel scared at times, like when making new friends, faced with bullies or mean kids at school or coping with a serious illness. There are many pressures and fears in life but Yah encourages us not to fear because he controls everything. Yah has given us his Son Yahshua to help us in all our situations. Yahshua reminds us “all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth” (Matt 28.18). Father Yahweh and his Son Yahshua rule and they have power to conquer all our fears.
In the story of the prophet Elisha there was a young man with him. They were surrounded by their enemies and the young man was scared. The young man asked Elisha what shall we do? Elisha answered “fear not for they that be with us are more than they that be with them” (2 Kings 6:16). Elisha prayed and “Yah opened the eyes of the young man: and he saw: and behold the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha” (2 Kings 6:17). This was Yahweh’s mighty army: angels ready to fight for Yah’s people at Yah’s command.
You are never alone. You have friends in high places ready to help you at Yah’s command. All Yah asks from us is to try our best to be honest to him. Ask Yahshua to forgive our sins and help us do what is right. Yahshua our king is there to help us with any weaknesses. You are a child of a king and he loves you dearly. You are his prince or princess. Be confident and fear not. Yah can also open your eyes to see his awesome power. Let him transform your life!!

CHARACTER: A Mother’s Teaching
As a man, are you a Carrot, an Egg, or a Coffee bean?
A lad seeking a sympathetic ear went to his mother and told her about his life and how
things were so hard for him. He did not know how he was going to make it and wanted to
give up. He was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a
new one arose.
His mother took him to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water. In the first, she
placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs and the last she placed ground coffee beans.
She let them sit and boil without saying a word.
In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and
placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled
the coffee out and placed it in a bowl.
Turning to her son, she asked, "Tell me what do you see?" "Carrots, eggs, and coffee,"
he replied. She brought him closer and asked him to feel the carrots. He did and noted that
they were soft. She then asked him to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell,
he observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, she asked him to sip the coffee.
The son smiled, as he tasted its rich aroma. Then he asked, “What's the point, mom?”
His mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity–boiling
water–but each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard and unrelenting.
However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg
had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior. But, after sitting
through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The coffee beans were unique,
however. After they were in the boiling water they had changed the water.
"Which are you?" the mom asked her son. "When adversity knocks on your door, how
do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?"
Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and
adversity, do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?
Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat? Did I have
a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I
become hardened and stiff? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and
tough with a stiff spirit and a hardened heart?
Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very
circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, the coffee bean releases its
fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better
and change the situation around you.
When the hours are the darkest and trials are their greatest do you elevate to another
level?
How do you handle Adversity? Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?
Don't tell Yah how big your storm is.
Tell the storm how big Yah is!
May Yah bless you, abundantly!
