YHVH declares the end from the beginning
Jubilee chapter 1, 5
5. And He said: "Incline thine heart to every word which I shall speak to thee on this Mount, and write them 2 in a book in order that their generations may see how I have not forsaken them for all the evil which they have wrought in transgressing the covenant which I establish between Me and thee for their generations this day on Mount Sinai.
6. And thus it will come to pass when all these things come upon them, 3 that they will recognize that I am more righteous than they in all their judgments and in all their actions, and they will recognize that I have been truly with them. 7. And do thou write for thyself 4 all these words which I declare unto thee this day, for I know their rebellion and their stiff neck, 5 before I bring them into the land of which I swear to their fathers, to Abraham and to Isaac and to Jacob, saying: "Unto your seed will I give a land flowing with milk and honey. 8. And they will eat and be satisfied, and they will turn to strange gods, to (gods) which cannot deliver them from aught of their tribulation: "and this witness shall be heard for a witness against them. 6 9. For they will forget all My commandments, (even) all that I command them, and they will walk after the Gentiles, and after their uncleanness, and after their shame, and will serve their gods, and these will prove unto them an offense and a tribulation and an affliction and a snare. 7 10. And many will perish and they will be taken captive, 1 and will fall into the hands of the enemy, because they have forsaken My ordinances and My commandments, and the festivals of My covenant, and My sabbaths, and My holy place 2 which I have hallowed for Myself in their midst, and My tabernacle, 3 and My sanctuary, which I have hallowed for Myself in the midst of the land, that I should set My name upon it, and that it should dwell (there). 11. And they 4 will make to themselves high places and groves and graven images, 5 and they will worship, each his own (graven image), so as to go astray, and they will sacrifice their children to demons, 6 and to all the works of the error of their hearts.
12. And I will send witnesses unto them, that I may witness against them, but they will not hear, 7 and will slay 8 the witnesses also, and they will persecute those who seek the law, and they will abrogate and change everything so as to work evil before My eyes. 13. And I shall hide My face from them, and I shall deliver them into the hand of the Gentiles for captivity, and for a prey, and for devouring, 9 and I shall remove them from the midst of the land, and I shall scatter 10 them amongst the Gentiles. 14. And they will forget all My law and all My commandments and all My judgments, and will go astray as to new moons, and sabbaths, and festivals, and jubilees, and ordinances. 15. And after this they will turn to Me 11 from amongst the Gentiles with all their heart and with all their soul and with all their strength, and I shall gather them from amongst all the Gentiles, 12 and they will seek Me, so that I shall be found of them, when they seek Me with all their heart and with all their soul. 16. And I shall disclose to them abounding peace with righteousness, and I shall †remove them the plant of uprightness†, 1 with all My heart and with all My soul, 2 and they will be for a blessing and not for a curse, 3 and they will be the head and not the tail. 4 17. And I shall build My sanctuary 5 in their midst, and I shall dwell with them, and I shall be their God and they will be My people 6 in truth and righteousness. 18. And I shall not forsake them nor fail them; 7 for I am the Lord their God."

To sin means to break YHVH's laws, which a loving soul finds easy to live by |
Are we able to hear his truth, feel His Love? We are, if we wish it. |
