JamesTheJust :
I am not worried about YHWH/Yahshua being present. Where two or more are gathered in HIS name, HE is there.
We do have the assurance from Yahshua HIMSELF that HE will be present.
Matthew 18:20
“19 Again, truly I say to you that if two from among you upon the earth should agree concerning any matter of which they should ask, it shall be brought to pass for them by My Father who is in the heavens. 20 For where there are two or three gathered in My Name, there I am in the midst of them!”
I am not disagreeing with you at all. Yahshua will be present at the gathering of any number of Racially True Adamic and/or Israelite Christian Brothers called, chosen, and elected to be a potential placed or positioned or restored Sons of God as it was at the beginning in the Garden of Eden before Adam's and Eve's Fall. That's the famous Restitution or, better, Restoration of all things.
Throughout the Old Testament only a restricted number of Adamic and Israelite men were in the presence of Yahweh and by Yahweh particular restricted permission and will. But not all Yahweh's presences were the same. For instance, the Levitical High priests were permitted to enter the Holy of Holies
only once a year, but Yahweh's presence was not the same as those of Moses, Enoch and Abraham.
In the New Testament, only those Racially True Adamic and/or Israelite Christian Brothers called, chosen, and elected to be a potential placed or positioned or restored Sons of God are granted the presence of Yahshua, but this kind of presence seem to be very much less than that of the Levitical Priesthood even though the
vail has been removed by Yahshua ultimate and only valid sacrifice.
We are in a time of probation, and Yahshua is working intensely to make us, Racially True Adamic and/or Israelite Christian Brothers called, chosen, and elected to be a potential placed or positioned or restored Sons of God, ready to be HIS Virgin Bride, i.e.,
spiritually united AT-ONE-MENT with HIM.
Then, and only then, we will be in the real, actual, concrete, and tangible presence of Yahshua. In the mean time, Yahshua promised to be present, i.e., listening, judging and helping us on a continuous basis, and according to HIS LAW, to ensure victorious success at the end of our totally mortal life. Everything else is personal perception and wishful thinking, even if Yahshua already paid for our resurrection.
Apparently, in general, the vast majority of Adamic and/or Israelite people seems not as crucially and specially important as those few ones referenced in the Bible used by Yahweh/Yahshua for a SPECIAL JOB. I am not saying that they do not necessarily exist, but we do not have any concrete shred of evidence of them being in actual, real, concrete, and repeatedly demonstrable AT-ONE-MENT with Yhashua.
Even those so called Ante-Nicene Fathers did not show to have any such spiritual luxury, except for the false pretension of miraculous events of those Babylonian leaders migrated from Pergamum to Rome to organize the future CAZZOLIC (catstsolic) church, the mother whore of hundreds of Protestant, Evangelical, etc, whores to deceive and destroy many Children of Israel.
The important thing to understand and grasp is that, since the resurrection of Yahshua, we have been in a time of probation and, more importantly of MATURATION. From Adam to Yahshua (~~5500 years) we went from infancy, through childhood and teenage, to beginning of adulthood (~~20th year). Now, very close to Yahshua return, we should be sufficiently mature to come AT-ONE-MENT with our Savior Yahshua, WHO is very delighted to find us doing the things prescribed by Himself. Anything else is superfluous or useless.
What we like to do cerimonially and religiously, at this point in time, is fine, provided we do not disobey any of God's Spiritual Law. Of course, I am inclined toward Joey Lilkanga's proposition of trying to do our best to keep the Leviticus 23 weekly sabbath and Annual Holy Days or High Sabbaths and related other days the best we can. In so doing, PERHAPS, we can conjecture that eventually Yahshua will guide us to find the True God's Calendar. But time is short. At Yahshua return all things will be restored. Alleluia!!!!
Last but not least. See for yourself how Yahweh is strict in receiving High Priests of Israel in HIS PROPER TIME according to HIS WILL and HIS LAW.

Yahweh, now Yahshua, is the EXTREME V.I.P. and KING OF EVERYTHING. I think that we should give HIM the proper and just respect. What make anyone think that Yahshua will give audience at anyone demand at all times. I do not think that anything is changed. HE says : -- I CHANGE NOT. Look at
John 6:44 which says:
No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.And at the very last day Yahshua will give us audience because at that time we will be like HIM, pure, sinless, divine, perfect and AT-ONE-MENT with HIM.
That's enough for now. There is too much to say on this subject.

In response to this, please see my post in the thread called "Yahwey's Law", second post down.
I haven't read it and I will read it ASAP in order to answer you properly.
