The command has gone out. Yeshua has proclaimed the beacon call. The shofar has sounded, the tekiah gedolah. Lasting over 2000 yrs so far. No longer is any of the House of Yisrael teaching and proclaiming the command to ‘Know the LORD‘. Because the Father is commanding all, from the least of...

My next string of threads will be about the commandments of Jesus during the second (last) Passover, and the verse most misused to justify observance of the Law. This is turning into a mantra of sorts for the Hebrew Roots/SDA movements. They seem to think it is a key verse that proves if you...

If you don’t use the power I gave you, I will not use my power to save you. Did God give us the power to forgive so we would be able to receive it ourselves? He gives us the power to forgive others so he can forgive us. Surely God could just say, your forgiven and be done with it. But he...

When your Torah observance falls short Many people within the Messianic faith focus on a persons acceptance, accommodation and commitment to observing the Torah given Israel. And many struggle with how, when, where, who, why…. in relation to Torah commands. I’ve seen throughout the years many...

The message of the cross is the power of God to save. As proved to us through the resurrection of Christ, and the free gift of the Spirit upon all who believe in this message. The Word of God given to Jesus from the Father, a witness about Jesus, who he is and what he does. The whole book of...

Messiah's spoken words are the Torah of the Spirit. The Torah of the Spirit is the Torah of Messiah. Yeshua spoke the words of God by the Spirit of God within him. The Torah of the Spirit is the Torah of Messiah, because Messiah was given the Spirit to announce the justice of God to the world...
