Sometimes we feel as though we have no part in the ministry, but such is not true. Every member of the assembly has his or her own ministry, and we are called to be faithful in it. Yeshua is one of the best examples of this.

A review of the reasons I believe Jonathan Cahn is in error on his "mystery" teaching, and also a detailed look at Deuteronomy 15:1-11. At the end I ask the question, "How does all of this apply to us today?"

One of the key ingredients to the Sabbatical cycle is the year of Jubilee, yet most groups that calculate for the land Sabbath ignore this key. This lesson also covers an additional point in Leviticus 25 that proves the Sabbatical years begin in the spring rather than the fall.

Relaying information about others is a serious matter. So often though we get caught up in a moment and say things that should never come out of our lips. We forget that when we slander our neighbor we are slandering the law itself.

Rabbi Jonathan Cahn has written a book that is sweeping across the nation of America. Many in the religious world are taking hold of it as end times revelation from the Lord. It deals with what he calls a 3,000 year old mystery surrounding the Sabbatical year in the Bible. What are we to make of his claims? This lesson exegetes Leviticus 25:1-7.

Yeshua was invited to a Pharisees house for dinner. Little did the Pharisee know that the woman who was known as the "town sinner" would show up in dramatic fashion. What took place has to be one of the greatest accounts in the ministry of Yeshua.

The unbelieving generation of Yeshua's day could not be satisfied. They rejected Yochanan (John) and Yeshua, even though they came teaching the truth in unique (but differing) ways. The unbelieving generation today is the same. Only Yahweh's Spirit can change the heart.

The Pharisees and experts in the law would appear to need no confession of sin and baptism. But that is a strictly outward appearance. Their healing was to be found in taking off their mask of hypocrisy and getting in line with the tax collectors to be baptized by John.

An emotional attachment to the sinful world means that we are an enemy of Yahweh. Our desires must be inclined to spiritual truth, not anything else that the world has to offer.

This begins a two-part series (within a larger series) examining Yeshua's statement, "Before Abraham was born, I am." (John 8:58 NASB) Who was Yeshua claiming to be? Is he the I am of Exodus 3:14? In this lesson, I cover Exodus 3:14 as well as other texts in John's Gospel where Yeshua uses the words "I am," leading up to John 8:58.

What is real wisdom? How do we determine whether or not we are acting wise in this life? There are so many people today who view wisdom in ways that are just not wise at all. This lesson seeks to remove all of those and center in on the only wisdom that really matters.

While the washing of feet was often done in the first century A.D. by the servant of a household, Yeshua took this practice and used it to teach his disciples a lesson in humility. It is a lesson we still need to learn today.

All Scripture is important. All doctrine is important. But not all Scripture and doctrine are of equal importance. This short lesson lists *some of the more important things that believers should be concerned with. They don't always square with what we "feel" should be most important.

Being in prison, Yochanan (John) could not see with his own eyes all that Yeshua had been doing. He believed, but needed the Master to help his unbelief. That was okay for John, and that is okay for you.

Mankind is able to control 1,000 pound horses, and 1,000 foot ships. Even the wildest of animals are controlled by us. Yet there is a small part of our body that can only be tamed by the work of the Holy Spirit.

A woman who had already lost her husband, has her only son die. But, Yeshua sympathizes with her and raises her son from the dead. Through this act Yahweh visited His people Israel. Beautiful, lovely account.
