To “fulfill” does not mean to “end, to negate, to annul, to reject, to remove, or to do away with,” as billions of unthinking Christians have been led to believe. It means to “perform as promised, to engage and accomplish one’s duty, to honor an aspect of an obligation, and to validate a prior oath.” Rather than diminishing or annulling the promise, a fulfillment authenticates, legitimizes, corroborates, and bears out the reliability and merit of the vow and the one who made it: Yahowah and His Towrah.
To love God as He revealed Himself, to be reconciled unto God by way of His Covenant Relationship, to be saved by God in His Way, we must first come to know God. And the means to this goal is the Towrah. Speaking to His Son, and to us through Him, our Heavenly Father advised:
“Acquire (qanah – bring forth (qal imperative)) wisdom (chakamah – adroit and disciplined thinking) and understanding (bynah – discernment which requires observation and consideration and is based upon the exercise of sound judgment from the proper perspective). Do not forget, ignore, nor overlook (‘al sakah – do not lose sight of the significance of, nor improperly respond to (qal imperfect jussive)), and do not separate, turn aside, or move away (‘al natah – do not stretch, bend, nor conspire to turn away (qal imperfect jussive) from (min) the Words (‘emer – the trustworthy and reliable sayings and discourse) of My mouth (peh – serving as a metaphor for communication and speech).” (Masal / Word Pictures / Proverbs 4:5)
Let’s not overlook the fact that Yahowah verbally presented His Towrah to the Children of Yisra’el from Mount Horeb. And He audibly dictated the text of His predictions to His prophets, making reading His Word synonymous with listening to His voice.
While overlooking the significance of Yah’s Towrah is personally devastating; bending and twisting God’s Word, and conspiring with others to turn away from His voice, is an unforgivable sin. And that is why Yahowah offered this advice: Don’t forget the Torah. Don’t ignore the Torah. Don’t overlook the Torah. Do not turn away from the Torah or separate yourself from the Word of God.
