Foundation of the 14th Sabbath Mystery of Sabbath Order
The 13th Gate revealed that the Sabbath is a day of Sacred Action. Through the Sabbath Action, the scattered pieces of the soul are gathered back together and restored to oneness.
The 14th Gate reveals what comes next.
Gate 13 teaches us how to gather the scattered self. But once the self is gathered, a new question emerges:
What do I do with a gathered self?
The answer is: You bring it into order.
A pile of gathered stones is not yet a temple. A gathered family is not yet a household. A gathered army is not yet a kingdom. A gathered self is not yet an ordered self.
So Gate 13 gathers. Gate 14 orders.
Once the self has been gathered, it must be ordered.
The purpose of gathering is order.
The purpose of order is peace.
The purpose of peace is alignment with the image of Yahweh (יהוה).
Yahweh (יהוה) created man (Male and Female) in His image and likeness.
Therefore, the image of Yahweh (יהוה) is the original pattern, character, and design that Yahweh placed within man (male and female) from the beginning.
Character refers to who we are inwardly. Pattern refers to the way Yahweh intended us to think, choose, love, and live. Design refers to what Yahweh created us to become and how He intended us to function.
When your inner self becomes scattered, the image becomes hidden beneath confusion and disorder. The Sabbath Action gathers the scattered self, and Sabbath Order restores the image to its original pattern, character, and design.
We, as the image of Yahweh, were created to function in divine order. When your mind, heart, and walk become scattered, your original image (who you really are) - the person Yahweh created you to be - becomes hidden beneath confusion, fear, contradiction, and instability.
The Sabbath Action gathers what has been scattered. Sabbath Order restores the pattern by which the image was designed to function.
The Sabbath Rest is the peace of mind that comes from bringing the gathered self into divine order.
Gate 14 is about Power. This is not power in the worldly sense. But the result you gain from understanding this gate is power.
Once the Sabbath Action gathers the scattered self, the action does not end there. The next mystery is learning how to live from that restored order.
The 14th Sabbath Gate teaches the soul how to remain ordered after it has been gathered.
The 14th Sabbath Gate is the Rest (Peace of Mind) that comes with Sabbath Order.
It is the confidence and power that comes from knowing who Yahweh created you to be and living from the restored image that you have gathered into oneness.
The restored image of Yahweh within us begins to function according to its original design.
Therefore, it is imperative for you to understand these functions. Let’s begin with Sabbath Order.
What Is Sabbath Order?
An easy way to understand order is by first understanding its opposite.
“And the earth was without form, and void;” - Genesis 1:2 KJV
In this scripture, the words “without form” describe a state or condition that is the opposite of Sabbath order.
"Without form" comes from Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance (8414). This is the Hebrew word
Tohu, which means formlessness, confusion, unreality, emptiness, wasteland, wilderness, and a place of chaos. It means to be chaotic.
Chaotic is a state or a mindset that is confused and disordered. It is disordered thinking. It is living in a state of chaos.
Chaos means that your life is in utter confusion. The dictionary says chaos is the state of being orderless and confused. It says it is the void at the beginning of creation, the confused, formless, elementary state of the universe. It means to be empty, it means to be wide open, to be a gaping, wide-open, and empty abyss.
We experience Chaos (Tohu) every week. You may know what Yahweh requires yet be pulled in multiple directions by the pressures of life. You may desire peace, yet you continually feed fear. You may believe in the Scriptures, but you allow competing voices to shape your thinking. You may want to walk (have actions) within the covenant, but desire to keep habits that pull you away from it.
This internal scattering creates confusion, instability, and disorder within the soul.
Now there are a lot of words to define the opposite of Sabbath order. But the one common denominator in these definitions is confusion. Confusion is disorder. It is the shame that comes from the mingling, mixing, and blending together of two or more things that are really separate.
Throughout Scripture, one of the greatest causes of confusion was mixture. Yahweh would establish a pattern, and those given the pattern would mingle and mix that pattern with something else.
Yahweh gave His instructions, and people added their own traditions.
Yahweh established His appointed times, but people substituted their own.
The result of the mixture was confusion because the original pattern became difficult to recognize. When the pattern becomes difficult to recognize, the image becomes difficult to express.
The Sabbath serves as a weekly return to the original pattern. It is a sacred appointment in which the soul pauses long enough to separate truth from error, clarity from confusion, and the image of Yahweh (יהוה) from the influences that have attached themselves to it during the week.
It is mental perplexity, a state of mind arising from indistinct ideas. Mental perplexity is the state of being confused, bewildered, or unsure of how to proceed due to something that is highly complicated, intricate, or unexpected. It is an emotional and cognitive feeling of bafflement that arises when you cannot easily understand or explain a situation.
Indistinct means unclear, blurred, or difficult to see, hear, or recognize. It describes something that lacks a sharp outline or cannot be easily distinguished from its surroundings. Indistinct ideas refer to thoughts, concepts, or notions that are vague, hazy, or lack clear definition. They are thoughts that are difficult to pin down, articulate, or understand with precision.
The concept of indistinct ideas refers to having a general idea or memory of something without knowing the exact details.
This is how we normally live our lives. We were created to live from Yahweh's divine order given in the beginning, yet much of life is spent navigating confusion, competing influences, and internal scattering that pull us away from that original order.
Therefore, the opposite of order is not just simply disorder. The opposite of order is confusion.
Confusion is a state in which everything is mixed together or in a disorderly mingling.
Confusion is having a perplexed mind or a set of perplexed ideas.
What is a perplexed mind?
A perplexed mind is a mind that cannot clearly determine what is true, what is right, what it should do, or which direction it should go.
A perplexed mind is a confused mind that struggles to make sense of what it is experiencing.
A perplexed mind is pulled in different directions at the same time.
What are perplexed ideas?
Perplexed ideas are thoughts that are unclear, conflicting, uncertain, or difficult to understand.
For example:
Believing two opposing things at the same time.
Wanting one thing while pursuing another.
Knowing what should be done but feeling compelled to do something different.
Hearing so many competing voices that truth becomes difficult to recognize.
Having a perplexed mind or perplexed ideas creates a state of mental perplexity in which thoughts and feelings become unsettled and confused.
This stems from the error of treating different things as if they were the same or identical.
When you have a perplexed mind, you may know what Yahweh requires, yet still not follow His instructions because of the influences around you.
A perplexed mind is one pulled in different directions at the same time. Perplexed ideas arise when truth is mixed with competing thoughts, opinions, traditions, fears, or desires, making the original pattern difficult to recognize.
The disorder and chaos that we have gained from worldly ways of thinking are the opposite of Yahweh’s Sabbath Order. They stand opposed to Yahweh's order. They are contrary to Yahweh's order. They are anti-Yahweh. They are anti-Yahweh in nature because they move the mind away from the pattern, character, and design established by Yahweh.
It is scattering, double-mindedness, inner conflict, competing desires, and the tension of believing one thing while living, thinking, or pursuing another.
It is mental perplexity, a state of mind arising from indistinct ideas. A perplexed mind is a confused mind that struggles to clearly understand what is true, what is right, or which direction it should follow. Perplexed ideas are thoughts that are unclear, conflicting, uncertain, or difficult to distinguish from one another.
When you have a perplexed mind, you may know what Yahweh requires, yet still choose not to follow His instructions because of the influences around you. A perplexed mind is pulled in different directions at the same time.
For example, Yahweh established seven High Holy Days. These are the only appointed times established by Yahweh for alignment with His order and His pattern. Yet throughout history, many of Yahweh's appointed times have been replaced by traditions, customs, and celebrations established by men. Today, the world has many celebrations that are called holidays. The word holiday comes from the words "holy day." For many people, the love and feelings that come with these holidays have completely replaced the love and feelings that are intended to come from aligning with and celebrating Yahweh's High Holy Days in their minds and hearts.
What Yahweh established and what man established are not the same thing.
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith יהוה. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." — Isaiah 55:8-9
When Yahweh's High Holy Days are mixed with, substituted for, or changed into holidays, confusion arises because the original pattern established by Yahweh becomes difficult to recognize. What Yahweh created for alignment is replaced with something completely different, serving a different purpose. The replacement holidays still have a purpose, but it is not the purpose Yahweh established for His High Holy Days.
The same is true concerning the Sabbath. Many people have been taught that the Sabbath is simply a day to gather in a building, to sit down, rest, and do nothing, or read their Bible, and all manner of ideas. Over time, we see that many different explanations and traditions have been attached to the Sabbath. These competing ideas create confusion and leave the mind perplexed.
Yet we are learning that the Sabbath is much more than physical rest, and even more than the traditions of men. The Sabbath is the Rest (Peace of Mind) that comes with this sacred appointment for realignment with Yahweh through Sabbath Action. In this Gate, we are also learning that it is a day for Sabbath Order.
Even the understanding of the Sabbath itself has become a source of confusion for many people.
Questions arise concerning the counting of days, the appointed time, and the original pattern established by Yahweh. Because the calendar has been changed many times throughout history, some celebrate the Sabbath on Saturday, while others celebrate it on Sunday, with both believing that they have the correct time.
Although this subject belongs to a deeper lesson (see the upcoming book, The Original Timekeepers), it demonstrates how easily confusion can enter when Yahweh's pattern is mixed with competing traditions, opinions, customs, and teachings.
This is what we mean by perplexity.
Truth becomes mixed with competing thoughts. Truth becomes mixed with competing opinions. Truth becomes mixed with competing traditions. Truth becomes mixed with fear. Truth becomes mixed with personal desires.
As a result, the mind becomes scattered. The soul becomes double-minded. Inner conflict develops.
Competing desires arise. A person may study truth, learn truth, and even recognize truth, yet fear of being different or standing apart from society may keep them from fully walking in that truth.
The mind becomes perplexed because of the influences surrounding Yahweh's order.
The Sabbath is a sacred appointment designed to bring forth truth and understanding. Through the
Sabbath Action, the scattered self is gathered. Through Sabbath Order, the gathered self is aligned with the image and pattern of Yahweh (יהוה).
"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." — John 8:32
Free from confusion. Free from chaos. Free from disorder.
You should understand now that the Sabbath is much more than simply a day of physical rest. It is a sanctuary in time where your soul is given an opportunity to return to order.
During the week, your mind becomes filled with competing thoughts. Your heart becomes pulled by competing desires. Your walk (these are your actions) is influenced by competing priorities.
The Sabbath Day interrupts the scattering process.
The Sabbath Action gathers the self. The Sabbath Order aligns the self.
On the Sabbath Day, what has been gathered can now be arranged according to the image and pattern of Yahweh (יהוה).
From this gathering and alignment, the Sabbath Order comes forth and begins.
Sabbath Order is the condition in which the gathered self is brought into alignment with the image of Yahweh (יהוה) within.
Sabbath Order is the sacred alignment of the mind, the heart, and the walk with the pattern of Yahweh (יהוה).
And the Sabbath Rest (Peace of Mind) that comes from Gate 14 is the peace that comes from the
Sabbath Action of Internal Order or Sabbath Order.
The Three Keys of Sabbath Order
The number fourteen is made up of ten and four.
Throughout Scripture, ten is associated with power, while four is associated with foundation.
Therefore, the 14th Sabbath Gate reveals the power that comes from establishing a strong foundation.
That foundation is Sabbath Order.
Sabbath Order is established through three keys:
The Order of the Mind
The Order of the Heart
The Order of the Walk
When these three dimensions come into alignment with Yahweh (יהוה), the scattered self becomes ordered, the image (who you are according to Yahweh's design for you) becomes visible, and your foundation becomes strong.
The first key is the Order of the Mind.
Key One: The Order of the Mind
"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Yahshua (Jesus)."— Philippians 2:5
The question becomes:
What mind are we speaking of? What is the "this mind" that Paul is referring to?
The very name Yahshua (Jesus) provides the answer.
Yahshua means: Yahweh Saves or Yahweh is Salvation
His name reveals the mindset that he carried. The mindset of Yahshua (Jesus) was that it is Yahweh who saves.
To understand the mind of Yahshua (Jesus), we must first understand the meaning of His name.
What Does Yahshua's (Jesus') Name – Yahweh is Salvation - Reveal?
Salvation = To Save
When we place the Greek sozo and the Hebrew yasa side by side, a much larger picture of salvation emerges than is often assumed in modern religious language. The English word save frequently brings to mind the idea of being rescued from sin or receiving eternal life, but both the Hebrew and Greek roots reveal something far broader, deeper, and more comprehensive. The Hebrew yasa, from which words such as salvation, savior, and even the name Yahshua are derived, literally carries the idea of being made wide, open, free, spacious, and safe.
The ancient imagery is that of someone being brought out of a place of confinement, restriction, danger, oppression, or distress and being placed into a place of liberty, security, and abundance.
To be saved, therefore, is to be liberated from whatever is binding, threatening, narrowing, or destroying life. It includes deliverance from enemies, rescue from danger, preservation in times of trouble, victory in battle, help in weakness, defense against oppression, and even restoration from moral corruption. Salvation is the movement from bondage into freedom, from limitation into spaciousness, from peril into safety, and from defeat into victory.
The Greek word sozo, which is used throughout the New Testament and translated as save ninety-three times in the King James Version, expands this understanding even further.
Strong's defines this salvation (saving) as "to save, deliver, protect, heal, preserve, and make whole." The word does not describe a legal declaration or a future promise. It describes an active process of restoration.
It is used for people being rescued from danger, healed from sickness, restored to health, preserved from destruction, protected from harm, and brought into wholeness. This is why the King James translators sometimes rendered sozo as "heal," "make whole," or "be whole."
The concept of salvation in the Greek Scriptures, the New Testament, is inseparable from restoration. To save someone was to restore what had been broken, recover what had been lost, preserve what was endangered, and bring a person back into a state of soundness and completeness.
When these two words are viewed together, salvation can be understood as Yahweh's work of bringing a person from restriction to freedom, from danger to safety, from sickness to health, from brokenness to wholeness, from defeat to victory, and from separation to restoration.
Salvation is not escaping something. It is being restored into something - the fullness of what
Yahweh intended. It is rescue, preservation, healing, protection, liberation, victory, and wholeness working together as one reality.
This understanding becomes especially powerful when viewed through the lens of the name Yahshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ).
The name literally means "Yahweh saves," "Yahweh delivers," or "Yahweh is salvation."
If we allow the full meaning of yasa and sozo to define that statement, then the name Yahshua is declaring far more than forgiveness alone. The name proclaims that Yahweh is the One who liberates, heals, restores, preserves, protects, rescues, defends, gives victory, and makes whole. Yahweh is the One who takes what is confined and makes it free, what is broken and makes it whole, what is endangered and makes it safe, and what is lost and brings it back into its proper place.
Thus, every time Yahshua’s name is spoken of in the Bible, it carries with it the testimony that Yahweh’s salvation is more than an event that will happen in the future. It is the complete restoration of life into the freedom, safety, victory, and wholeness for which it was originally created. This shows us that salvation is received through returning to the order of Yahweh, aligning with His way, walking in His truth, and living within the divine pattern He established from the beginning.
As it is written, “Shew us thy mercy, O Yahweh (יהוה), and grant us thy salvation. I will hear what God Yahweh (יהוה) will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.” — Psalm 85:7–8.
What Is Yahweh Saving Us From?
The deeper message hidden within the name Yahshua (Jesus) reveals that Yahweh is saving us from everything that separates us from the life He originally intended for us. He is saving us from bondage, oppression, fear, confusion, brokenness, corruption, destruction, and every force that narrows, restricts, and diminishes life.
The Hebrew word yasa teaches that salvation is liberation into freedom and safety, while the Greek word sozo reveals restoration into health, preservation, and wholeness.
Together, they show that Yahweh is delivering us from the consequences of living outside His divine order and bringing us back into the spaciousness, peace, victory, and completeness for which we were created.
Salvation is Yahweh's work of rescuing us from everything that causes us to become less than what He designed us to be and restoring us to the fullness of life found within His covenant order.
But what is Yahweh saving?
Yahweh is saving your scattered soul. Yahweh is saving your divided mind. Yahweh is saving your confused self.
Yahweh is saving your disconnected image (who you really are). Salvation begins with understanding how Yahweh saves.
It begins with restoration. "He restoreth my soul..." — Psalm 23:3
How Is Yahweh Saving Us?
Yahweh saves us by revealing the truth. Truth brings light to what was hidden, clarity to what was confused, order to what was scattered, and understanding to what was unknown. The mind can become bound by deception, false beliefs, fear, ignorance, double-mindedness, and distorted ways of seeing ourselves, others, and the world around us.
Truth breaks those chains. It renews perception, corrects understanding, restores sound judgment, and brings the mind into harmony with reality. As the mind becomes aligned with truth, thoughts become clearer, decisions become wiser, emotions become more stable, and life begins to move into greater order. In this way, truth becomes an instrument of salvation, delivering the mind from confusion and bondage and leading it into freedom, peace, wholeness, and right relationship with Yahweh's divine pattern.
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” — John 8:32
This verse reveals that freedom comes through knowing truth.
Why Does Yahweh Need to Reveal Truth?
Yahweh must reveal truth because deception has distorted our understanding of Him, of ourselves, and of the purpose for which we were created.
The Scriptures teach that the adversary has worked to deceive the world, causing people to
exchange truth for error, clarity for confusion, and divine order for disorder.
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world...” — Revelation 12:9
As deception increases, the mind becomes scattered, divided, uncertain, and perplexed. Thoughts become fragmented, perception becomes clouded, and people lose sight of Yahweh's ways and His pattern for life.
The result is a world filled with confusion, conflict, fear, instability, and separation from the very order that produces peace and wholeness. This leaves people standing opposed to Yahweh's order. It causes thinking contrary to Yahweh's order.
It creates an anti-Yahweh or anti-Christ mind in nature because it operates against and is in opposition to Yahweh's thinking, Yahweh's truth, and the Divine Pattern established by Yahweh from the beginning.
An anti-Yahweh or anti-Christ mind occurs when your mind has been moved away from the pattern, character, and design established by Yahweh.
This is the true deception plaguing the world:
Having a mind that is no longer aligned with Yahweh’s Divine Order.
Therefore, Yahweh reveals truth to restore what deception has distorted. He reveals truth to gather what has been scattered, clarify what has been confused, heal what has been broken, and return
His people to the knowledge of who He is and who they were created to be.
The truth does not just inform your mind. Truth transforms the mind.
What was bound in you becomes free. What was confused becomes clear. What was scattered becomes ordered. Through truth, Yahweh leads His people into the freedom, safety, victory, and wholeness contained within His salvation.
This is the mind that Yahshua (Jesus) had - a mind fully aligned with Yahweh's divine order. It was a mind aligned with Yahweh's Sabbath Order.
Yahshua had a mind that trusted Yahweh. Yahshua had a mind that obeyed Yahweh. Yahshua had a mind that reflected Yahweh.
"I and my Father are one." — John 10:30
Yahshua had a mind that was not divided against itself.
"Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand." — Matthew 12:25
A divided house cannot stand. A divided mind cannot stand. A divided self cannot stand.
Yahshua had a mind ordered according to the heavenly pattern.
Therefore, the first work of the Sabbath Order within us is to understand that Yahweh is our Salvation. Then apply the Sabbath Action by bringing your thoughts back into alignment with the Divine Mind of Yahweh.
The Order of the Mind begins when your thinking, beliefs, choices, and understanding become aligned with the pattern, character, and design established by Yahweh from the beginning.
Key Two: The Order of the Heart
The gathered mind must be joined to an ordered heart.
The Order of the Mind brings truth into alignment.
The Order of the Heart brings love into alignment.
The heart determines what we love, what we value, what we pursue, and what we place first in our lives.
For this reason, Sabbath Order does not stop with saving the mind. Truth must move from the mind into the heart.
Understanding the Biblical Heart
Salvation does not stop with the renewal of the mind. What the mind understands, the heart must learn to love.
The heart is far more than the seat of emotion. In Scripture, the heart is the inner center of the person. The Hebrew words lev and levav describe the heart as the center of thought, understanding, judgment, memory, intention, desire, affection, devotion, and will.
One of the greatest misunderstandings modern readers bring to Scripture is the assumption that the ancients divided the human person the same way we do today. In modern thought, the brain thinks and the heart feels. In biblical thought, however, the heart is the governing center of the inner person.
This is why Scripture describes the heart as thinking, reasoning, understanding, remembering, and directing life. Solomon prayed for an understanding heart (1 Kings 3:9). Yahshua (Jesus) perceived the thoughts of people's hearts (Luke 9:47). Scripture says, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7). The heart stores truth, directs life, and reveals the inner person.
The heart represents the meeting place of thought and desire, knowledge and action, devotion and identity. It is the orienting center of the whole person.
THE HEART REPRESENTS OUR WHOLE PERSON TURNED EITHER TOWARD TRUTH OR AWAY FROM IT.
This understanding also helps explain the biblical meaning of love. In Scripture, love is not primarily an emotion. Love is attachment, loyalty, devotion, desire, union, and orientation. Love is the direction in which the heart moves.
When Yahweh commands: "And thou shalt love יהוה thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might." — Deuteronomy 6:5
He is not commanding a feeling. He is commanding the direction of our entire inner person towards Him. Thoughts, desires, choices, loyalties, identity, and purpose are all to be oriented toward Yahweh.
The Heart as an Orienting Center
Once north is established, every other direction is determined in relation to that fixed point. North becomes the reference point by which all other directions are understood and navigated.
The heart functions in much the same way. The point is not simply that the heart has love. The point is that love functions as the true north of the heart. Just as a compass is designed to orient itself toward north, the heart is designed to orient itself toward something. The question is not whether the heart loves.
The question is what does the heart loves most.
As it is written:
"He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love." — 1 John 4:8
Because Yahweh is love, the heart was created to be oriented toward Yahweh. Just as a compass is designed to point north, the heart was designed to direct its highest affection, devotion, loyalty, and desire toward Yahweh.
Love is the directional setting of the heart. What the heart loves becomes the fixed point around which everything else is organized.
This is why the Scriptures place such importance on the heart. The heart is the orienting center of the whole person. Thoughts, emotions, judgments, desires, decisions, loyalties, and actions all begin to align themselves around whatever the heart loves most.
This is why Scripture says:
"Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." — Proverbs 4:23
Whatever occupies the highest place in the heart eventually influences the direction of the entire life.
If the heart is oriented toward Yahweh, life moves toward His order.
The problem arises when the heart turns away from Yahweh. The heart does not stop loving; instead, it redirects its love toward something else. The compass still functions, but it begins pointing toward a false north.
If the heart accepts a false north, everything flowing from it gradually moves out of alignment. Thoughts become misaligned. Desires become misaligned. Choices become misaligned. Actions become misaligned.
Not because the heart stopped functioning, but because the heart's orientation changed.
Why Does the Heart Need to Be Saved?
There is something wrong with the heart, and because of this, the heart must be restored.
As it is written:
"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" — Jeremiah 17:9
The word deceitful means misleading, creating a false appearance, or causing someone to believe something is true when it is not.
Remember:
"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world..." — Revelation 12:9
Deception does not always come through obvious lies.
Often, it comes through ideas, teachings, traditions, beliefs, and information that create a false appearance of truth.
It creates spiritual illusions that appear right, causing people to love things that are not truly from Yahweh.
This gives greater depth to Jeremiah's statement.
The heart can mislead a person concerning what they love, what they value, what they trust, and what they pursue.
The heart can make unhealthy desires appear good. It can make temporary things appear eternal.
It can make things contrary to Yahweh's order appear desirable. It can justify lies to your mind.
The deceitfulness of the heart is that it can persuade you that something other than Yahweh deserves the highest place of your devotion, your love.
Once the heart accepts a false north, the entire life begins organizing itself around the wrong center.
The Battle Over Love
The heart is not usually deceived by hatred. The heart is most often deceived by misdirected love.
The problem is not that people stop loving. The problem is that they begin loving the wrong things, in the wrong ways, and in the wrong order.
This takes us back to what we discussed earlier:
The love of holidays instead of Yahweh's Holy Days.
The love of being out of alignment with Yahweh's Sabbath Day.
The love of traditions that have replaced Yahweh's appointed times.
The battle of the heart is ultimately a battle over affection, attachment, and devotion.
A person may know something is out of alignment with Yahweh and still pursue it because the heart remains attached to it.
Once affection is established, the heart often recruits the mind to defend what it already loves.
A person may say:
"We did it when we were children, so I want my children to do it."
Even when the practice is contrary to Yahweh's order.
The heart defends what it loves.
This is why salvation begins with truth in the mind and continues with love in the heart.
Truth asks: Is this right?
Love asks: Is this worthy of my devotion?
The heart is deceived when it assigns ultimate value (love) to something that does not deserve it.
It teaches you to love the gift more than the Giver. The creation more than the Creator. A deceitful heart teaches you to love the ways that were created to replace Yahweh’s ways, and have no love for Yahweh’s ways.
It causes you to love the “false self” or fake you created by deception more than you desire to become the person Yahweh created you to be.
This is why the heart must be restored.
What deception misdirected, Yahweh must redirect.
How Does Yahweh Save the Heart?
Yahweh saves the heart by restoring its highest affection to Himself, allowing the whole person to return to harmony with His divine pattern.
Remember, Yahshua means "Yahweh Saves" or "Yahweh Is Salvation."
If salvation is the restoration of the whole person, then we must ask:
How does Yahweh save the heart?
We have already established that Yahweh saves the mind through truth.
The heart is saved through purification and the reorientation of love.
A pure heart is a heart whose love has been brought back into proper order.
As it is written:
"Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." — Matthew 5:8
A deceived heart sees incorrectly. A pure heart sees correctly.
A deceived heart becomes attached to the false self. A pure heart recognizes the image Yahweh intended from the beginning.
This is why David prayed:
"Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me." — Psalm 51:10
The heart is restored by love. Not by creating love, because the heart already loves.
The heart is restored by redirecting love to its True North—Yahweh.
"And thou shalt love יהוה thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might." — Deuteronomy 6:5
Centuries later, Yahshua (Jesus) repeated the same passage:
"This is the first and great commandment." — Matthew 22:37–38
Yahshua (Jesus) did not introduce a new teaching.
He pointed back to what Yahweh had already established through Moses.
The salvation of the heart is the reordering of right love.
Yahweh redirects the heart's affections toward what is worthy, true, and life-giving.
As it is written:
"And יהוה thy God will circumcise thine heart... to love יהוה thy God with all thine heart..." — Deuteronomy 30:6
And:
"A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you..." — Ezekiel 36:26
The mind is saved by truth. The heart is saved by purified love.
Truth reveals what is worthy. Purified love clings to what is worthy.
As it is written:
"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity." — 1 Corinthians 13:13
The word charity comes from the Greek word agapē (ἀγάπη) and means love.
Faith directs what you believe. Hope directs what you expect. Love directs what you pursue.
This is why charity is called the greatest.
What you truly love will eventually shape your choices, actions, habits, and life.
Just as deception scatters the mind, misplaced love scatters the heart.
The Sabbath becomes a sacred appointment to examine what occupies first place within you.
What do you truly love? What do you truly desire? What do you truly pursue?
The Order of the Heart begins when your loves, desires, affections, and priorities become aligned with Yahweh's truth and Yahweh's Divine Order.
The Order of the Heart is established when love is gathered, purified, and aligned with Yahweh, allowing the heart to function according to its original pattern, character, and design.
Key Three: The Order of the Walk
The gathered mind must be joined to an ordered heart, and the ordered heart must be joined to an ordered walk.
Truth orders the mind.
Love orders the heart.
Obedience orders the walk.
The mind reveals what you believe. The heart reveals what you love. The walk reveals what you live.
So the next question becomes:
What is the walk?
The Scriptures first introduce us to this concept through Enoch.
"And Enoch walked with God..." — Genesis 5:24
But what does it mean to walk with Yahweh?
The Hebrew word translated as walk is halak.
It means to walk, live, behave, follow, conduct oneself, proceed, travel, continue, exercise oneself, and move through life according to a particular course or pattern.
This word means to walk, live, behave, conduct oneself, follow, proceed, continue, move, travel, exercise oneself, and order one's life according to a particular course.
Walking is more than movement. Walking is a way of life. Walking describes how you live.
It describes how you behave. It describes the path you follow. It describes the choices you make. It describes the pattern by which you order your life.
Do you conduct your life according to Yahweh's ways? Do you follow Yahweh's direction?
To walk with Yahweh is to live according to Yahweh's pattern. It is to behave in accordance with Yahweh's ways. It is to conduct your life according to Yahweh's instructions. It is to follow Yahweh's direction.
What's wrong with our walk, and why does it need to be saved?
Our walk is our ways, what we do, and how we live. We need to be saved from our ways. Because we departed from the walk or ways of Yahweh.
Yahshua (Jesus) answered this question by pointing back to the days of Noah.
"But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." — Matthew 24:37
Well, what was happening in Noah's days?
"For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage..." — Matthew 24:38
Many people read this passage and immediately think of physical eating, physical drinking, and physical marriage.
Yet throughout Scripture, eating and drinking are often used to describe what people consume inwardly.
People consume teachings. People consume beliefs. People consume philosophies. People consume values.
Likewise, marriage is often used to describe joining, attaching, or uniting with something.
The picture being presented is of people being joined to ways, beliefs, practices, and patterns that were not established by Yahweh.
As it was in the days of Noah, people gradually departed from Yahweh's order and became joined to other influences.
Their walk changed from the one Yahweh created. Their pattern of life changed. Their conduct changed. Their ways changed.
This is exactly what Yahweh later said through the prophet Malachi:
"Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith יהוה of hosts." — Malachi 3:7
Notice that Yahweh does not simply say they stopped believing.
The problem was not simply that people stopped believing.
The problem was that people stopped walking correctly.
He says we departed from His ordinances.
Then they departed from His ways, and now we are doing the same. They departed from the walk He had established, and now we have done the same.
This is why the walk needs salvation. The walk has been moved away from Yahweh's pattern.
The walk has become joined to competing ways of living.
The walk has become influenced by traditions, customs, philosophies, and practices that did not originate with Yahweh.
How does Yahweh save the walk?
The answer is revealed through Yahshua (Jesus).
Since Yahshua means "Yahweh Saves" or "Yahweh Is Salvation," we must look at how Yahshua restored the walk.
As it is written: "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil." — Matthew 5:17
What does it mean to fulfill?
Yahshua fulfilled the law by living it, teaching it, demonstrating it, and restoring people to it.
He lived during Roman rule, a time when many Hebrews had become influenced by the customs, practices, and ways of the surrounding world.
Yahshua restored attention to Yahweh's ways. He demonstrated the walk through His actions.
He observed the Passover.
"Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover." — Luke 22:1
He attended Yahweh's appointed feasts.
"Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught." — John 7:14
He taught obedience.
"If ye love me, keep my commandments." — John 14:15
He taught love toward Yahweh and love toward others.
"Thou shalt love יהוה thy God with all thy heart..." — Matthew 22:37
"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." — Matthew 22:39
His life reflected the pattern established by Yahweh.
"I and my Father are one." — John 10:30
This is why Scripture says:
"And thou shalt keep the commandments of יהוה thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him." — Deuteronomy 8:6
The commandments and the walk are connected.
Truth orders the mind.
Love orders the heart.
Obedience orders the walk.
The walk is the visible expression of the ordered mind and the ordered heart.
The mind receives truth. The heart receives love. The walk expresses both.
The salvation of the walk is the restoration of your life to Yahweh's ways.
The Order of the Walk begins when your actions, habits, choices, and way of life become aligned with the commandments, ordinances, and ways established by Yahweh from the beginning.
The Order of the Walk is established when your life reflects the pattern, character, and design that Yahweh intended from the beginning.
Sabbath Order
When viewed together, the Mystery of the 14th Gate reveals that Yahweh's salvation is the restoration of divine order within the whole person.
The scattered self is gathered through the Sabbath Action, but gathering is only the beginning.
What has been gathered must be brought into alignment. The mind must be aligned with truth. The heart must be aligned with love. The walk must be aligned with Yahweh's ways.
When these three dimensions come into harmony, the original image that Yahweh placed within us begins to emerge once again.
The person hidden beneath confusion, deception, fear, contradiction, and disorder begins to reappear. Sabbath Order is therefore not merely a concept. It is the process by which Yahweh restores us to who we were created to be.
The power of the 14th Gate is found in this restoration.
A divided mind cannot stand. A misdirected heart cannot lead correctly. A disordered walk cannot produce lasting peace.
But when truth orders the mind, love orders the heart, and obedience orders the walk, the whole person begins functioning according to Yahweh's original pattern, character, and design.
This is the confidence, stability, clarity, and peace that come from divine order.
This is the restoration of the image.
This is the power of a strong foundation.
And this is the Sabbath Rest that comes when your regathered self is brought back into alignment with Yahweh's Divine Order.
Walk into this 14th Gate: Sabbath Order with a renewed mind, a purified heart, and a restored walk. Let truth guide your thoughts, let love direct your affections, and let obedience shape your life. In doing so, the image of Yahweh within you will once again become visible, and the peace of His order will rest upon you.

Through the Order of the Mind, truth is restored.
Through the Order of the Heart, love is restored.
Through the Order of the Walk, life is restored.
