Torah & the Prophets: Abolished or Fulfilled in Messiah?

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . One can simply read in the Bible that the Torah and the Prophets have not been abolished/dissolved in Messiah but have been fulfilled/fully preached/liberally supplied. So what then are we to do with the doctrines of men that have told us that the Torah and the Prophets were for someone else? How have these words of Messiah been so twisted and mishandled? Is it possible that we've entirely missed what Messiah was saying and have twiste...

Tahor: Clean & Pure

When we read that the Most High's words are "clean and pure," what does this mean for us today? How do we determine what are His words and what are merely the words of men? Does it even matter? Let's find out! #yahweh #yeshua #torah #ancient way

Don't Fear Righteous Deeds & Good Works

Most of us have inherited an errant belief system that tells us that the Creator's heart cannot be moved by righteous deeds and good works of men. But is this biblically true? Let's find out! #good_deeds #righteousness #yahweh #yeshua #feasts #sabbath #ancient way #bible

Sabbath Day - Sunday - Every Day: Does it even matter?

When placing the Creator's commands, Messiah's words and the doctrines of men side by side, what will we do with what we've been handed, in regards to how we approach the Sabbath Day? Will we follow Yahweh's Word or traditions of men? Does it even matter? Let's find out. #sabbath #torah #ancientway #religion #yahweh #yeshua Why Men Changed the Sabbath Exploring John Chapter 5: Part 3 - Sabbath Law or Man-Made Traditions Exploring John Chapter 5: Part 4 - Did Messiah "Break" the Sabbath Ten for T...

Resisting Instant Comfort and Relief

All of us have endured a trial of some sort. Some of us are within the challenges of one right now. What are we to do? I want to encourage us all to endure well! Let us fight off the urge to just "make everything OK" and allow the Most High to be our Helper and strength. Perhaps if we can patiently bear the trial, and emerge out the other side, we can learn all that He desires us to and be perfected into a more suitable and pleasing child of the Most High. Do you endure well or do you desire ins...

Part 4 - What is Sin Biblically?

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . The series concludes here! If the Bible tells us that lawlessness defines the ones who will be cast out, what does this mean for the religions that tell us that "in Jesus, there is no longer a law?" Biblically, judgment is declared for the lawless transgressors who willfully walk away from the Most High's commands and instructions. Lastly, we're told by Messiah that "love will grow cold when lawlessness increases." Do you know what thi...

Some Thoughts on our Sin series

I grabbed the phone to record a very brief video discussing some off the cuff thoughts towards our ongoing sin series. Sin Series Playlist on YouTube

Part 3 - SIN: What Is It Biblically?

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . The series continues as we invite all to confess that we all "miss the mark." Because of this, what then are we to do? Give up? Merely practice "greasy grace" and consider all of our righteous deeds/works as a waste of time? Do we simply avoid striving to "hit the mark" entirely, since we won't hit it anyway? Let's find out what our Example Yeshua did, in order to be found as a sin-LESS, well-pleasing Son. Do you know? Let's find out!...

Part 2 - SIN: What Is It Biblically?

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . Do we have records of men in the Bible who made it their life's goal to "hit the mark" and live obedient to the Creator's Ways? Is there still a place for us today to still read the Word and hear of "practicing righteousness" and learning Father's Instructions? I will propose that I'm fully convinced that we've set the bar far too low because we've been errantly taught that our good works are merely "filthy rags." We must be careful th...

Part 1 - SIN: What Is It Biblically?

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . In Part 1 we start off by laying a most-important foundation. What words does the Bible use to define sin, in both Testaments? Do we know? Does it really even matter? I will suggest that if we can establish this properly (biblically), we will see that perhaps "sinning" is not quite what we've been told. Perhaps we will begin to have a major shift in our thinking towards obedience and Father's Instruction. Do you now what sin is, biblic...

God's Law: A Good Gift

Liberty is Found in Yahweh’s Precepts, Not in Release From Them

Tzitzit - Tassels - Fringes: Should Anyone Wear Them Today?

While many people rightly understand that Messiah wore tassels (the Bible has examples of this, of course) they still simply label wearing them as being merely "Jewish custom." But what if they're actually a covenant sign with a covenantal purpose that is for our good, just like they were for Messiah? In this episode we're going to ask this question, and many more, as we discuss the tassels on the garments of Yahweh's People. Do you know what the Bible says about this? Let's find out!...

Divergence: Many Are Choosing... Right Now

It seems that discerning Who are Yahweh's Set Apart covenant People is getting easier with each passing day. Most fall within two primary camps: A) Those embracing and admitting that we've all inherited deception and repent or B) Those digging in your heels deeper into the popular doctrines of men, unwilling to move. Do you know which path you're choosing to walk upon? Let's find out!

Are We Following Myths & Fables?

In this episode we discuss Paul's warning to Timothy of an age that was to come that is surely now here (2 Timothy 4). People will only want to hear a desirable word that they already agree with. They will turn away from truth. They will turn towards myths and fables. So could this be us? Could we be the ones that this was prophesied of? How do we be sure that we are pursuing truth and not merely perpetuating man-made traditions and myths? Let's find out!

Is the Way Truly Narrow?

Messiah told us that the way that leads to life is narrow and constricting. Do we *really* believe that? Let's find out!

We Need Boundaries

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . A quick talk about the principles of boundaries. Provision and care are within them. May we not be so quick to bust through and pursue false freedom.

Let's Be Self-Controlled People

When Men WANTED Counsel

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . While many people boldly state that the "today's church" needs to be more like the "Acts church", the interaction between the Jerusalem council and the new believers, in chapter 15, seems to get overlooked. There was a time when men wanted and welcomed counsel. I will present that we return to this simple, yet often difficult, biblical principle. Do you want counsel? I do!

The Fruit of Constantine's "Different Way"

Many Believers are beginning to ask, "how in the world did Christianity get here?" Well, I believe that there is an answer, but we must go way back to the immediate generations that followed Messiah's earthly exit. In this episode I'll promote a question for your consideration: What if the Body of Messiah is so grossly disconnected from what It was intended to be because the fruit that is growing on the tree of Constantine's efforts is now coming into maturity? Do you know of the historical shif...

Part 1 - PASSOVER: A Night to be Observed for Yahweh

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE . Have you inherited the belief that Passover was a custom for another people group that you are not? Have you been told that it was their possession? Have you been told that Messiah fulfilled it all so now we've moved past such observances and given the freedom to create our own? Part 1 will use the Word to begin answering our three primary questions. (See playlist description.) Do you know why the Bible states that the Most High's Set ...

It's okay to be vulnerable.

A House Is Sacred Space

This is a very short audio episode discussing the simple fact that throughout the Bible, Yahweh is referred to as a dwelling. His Name is a fortress. He is a strong tower. He is safety and covering. The Most High is holy. There is none like Him. And a house is a sacred space.

Useless Knowledge (An Audio Allegory)

In this age, accolades abound for all manner of things. But what if what we learn, even things that we may be rewarded for knowing, is not truth according to the Scriptures? This short story will challenge us all to properly embrace truth and abandon the patterns of this world. Do you ride the current of conformity or do you filter all things through the Word and make sure that what you're adding to your life is not useless knowledge? Let's find out!

Seasons

Many times, if we're honest, we easily recognize seasons in the natural yet are guilty of overlooking the natural progression of seasons in our spiritual lives.
