How to Inherit Eternal Life
YHWH's (Yahweh's) simple plan of Redemption, Deliverance (Salvation), Eternal life:
First, believe that the Sovereign Almighty Creator of all, whose name is YHWH (Yahweh) is the only Redeemer/Savior of the true people of Yisrael (Israel), Isa. 41:1,3. No other gods Isa.41:10; 44:6,8; 45:8. No other Saviors Isa. 43:11; 45:15,21,22. No other redeemers Isa. 44:6; 49:26. This includes the twelve original tribes of Yisrael (Israel) and their descendants scattered among all the nations of the globe, as well as the "stranger" (non-Yisraelite (Israelite) that wants to join the household of Yisrael (Israel).
Note: Yisrael (Israel) includes both the household of Yisrael (Israel) and the household of Yahudah both "lost" until their time (calling) of their redemption/salvation as individuals and then someday together as a restored dispersed nation living among the nations of the Globe is completed, Ezk. 6:8, 11:17; Hosea 1:9-11.
Second, believe that the only hope of Redemption/Salvation for wayward Yisrael (Israel), and for all wayward man, (including you) is by turning toward and seeking YHWH (Yahweh), who only is Elohim (Mighty One, God) of Yisrael (Israel). Recognize that He is the ONLY One and true Elohim, then confess your sins before Him, YHWH (Yahweh) and Him only, through heartfelt sincere repentance. YHWH alone can forgive an offence committed against Him, Ps. 32; 51; Isa. 1:16,18.
Third, become "faithful" by correcly keeping YHWH’s (Yahweh’s) Commandments, Exodus 20: 3-17; Eze. 26:24. By doing this, you as the repentant sinner can demonstrate (by faithfulness) that you want to become an heir (a returning prodigal) of YHWH (Yahweh) the Elohim (Might One) Father of Yisrael (Israel), and that you desire to inherit eternal life, (See Matt. 19:16-17).
Note: Receive and believe in the teachings and instructions of the Prophet Yahshua HaMashiach (Messiah), as found in the Greek writings, and follow them. Yahshua was the appointed deliverer of "lost" Yisrael (Israel). This will result in a washing of spiritual regeneration and in a rebirth (the renewing) of your mind by YHWH’s (Yahweh’s) Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit). This renewal (rebirth) is the confirmation of His YHWH's (Yahweh's) acceptance of you and your forgiveness.
Note: Baptism by immersion before other "true Believers" is an outward sign of your sincere renewal, repentance, and (rebirth) into the House-hold of YHWH (Yahweh). It is a demonstration before other witnesses, and the whole world of your intention to live your life in accordance with obedience to the keeping of His Commandments!
Fourth, believe that YHWH is faithful, and trust that what He has told the prophets of old is true and is completely reliable, Eze. 18: 21-32; Ps. 16: 10-11; Ps. 17:15; Ps. 30:4.
Note: Believe in the words of the Prophet Yahshua HaMashiach (Messiah) when he answered this specific question:"And behold, one came to him and said, Teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why askest thou me concerning that which is good? One there is who is good, but if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments." Matt. 19:16-17.
Note: Believe that the inward evidence of your sincere repentance, redemption and subsequent faithfulness to YHWH (Yahweh) is the direct witness within you of the indwelling Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), (Matt. 7:21, 24; 12:50). The outward evidence as expressed by you to all men will result in a life of righteousness and true set-apart-ness (holiness), and the sincere keeping of YHWH’s (Yahweh’s) Commandments, and the maturing of you as a son or daughter of the House-hold of YHWH (Yahweh).
Note: The stranger (the non-Israelite) also has a place in the house (house-hold) of YHWH (Yahweh) and to life, if he joins himself to YHWH (Yahweh), under the same conditions above as Yisrael (Israel). (See Isaiah 56:3, 5); "everyone that keeps the Shabbat/Sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant." Isaiah 56:6. He will make them joyful in His house (house-hold) of prayer, Isaiah 56:7; Ps. 116:7-16.
Summary:
Ecc 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments; for this applies to every man. Ecc 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with all that is hidden, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.
