Paul says not to judge others on matters of days or food; is he teaching against the Torah here? Paul’s letters can be very confusing at the best of times. Sometimes he is addressing things concerning the Law of God, the Torah. Other times he appears to be addressing matters of opinion, such as in Romans 14. 

Paul said that we are not "under the law"...but Paul makes mention of seven laws! Out of those seven laws, there is ONLY ONE we are no longer under. Which ONE law are we no longer under? Are we no longer under the law of God? A choice between context and doctrinal tradition is about to be placed before you...as we continue to "test everything" and ask "Which Law Paul?"

Living a Life in Exile doesn’t mean live poorly or away from the world. We still need to be behaving honorably among the gentiles. We continue our bible study through 1 Peter looking at 1 Peter 2:11 – 3:7. We may not be of the world, but we do still live in and need to represent the Father well. 

We are living a life of exile as Peter describes in his first letter. In 1 Peter 2:1-10 we learn more about what it means to be obedient children to our Father and what it looks like to have a desire for God in our lives. 

There are some critics of following the Torah that believe when Messiah healed people on the Sabbath, that he was showing it was no longer important. That is, they are saying by healing on the Sabbath, he brought an end to it. While that is one way to look at it, we don’t believe it is the correct one. 

 Leviticus 19:19 prohibits the planting of mixed seeds together among other things. What does this strange commandment mean? How has it been interpreted in the past and how should we see it today? Is it even possible to truly know the meaning behind and practical application of this command? 

 As we continue our bible study about a life in exile in 1 Peter 1, we look at verses 13-25 to find out that we are to be holy. The Father has a way that he wants his people to live, and it’s not like the rest of the world. What does a holy life look like? 

 The common position of mainstream theology utilizes snippets from Paul's writings to prove that God changed His law. Others teach that Paul is a false apostle and teaches against the Law of God. However, Peter's warning tells us how twisting Paul's letters promotes a lawless doctrine. Here are 6 reasons Paul is difficult to understand. 

This series is designed to look at the mo'edim (or appointed times) of YHWH in a brief and concise way. In this video, we look at Purim. What is Purim? Is it an appointed time? Should we celebrate it?  If so, how? If not, why not? 

Should we be subjecting ourselves to the governing authorities even if they go against the Torah? What did Paul mean by his statements in Romans 13:1-7? 

 Christians around the world are keeping the Sabbath the way the Bible says to keep it. Why? How is the Sabbath meaningful to followers of Jesus? 

 In part 5, the final part of our What is the Gospel? series, we look at understanding all of the gospel as it relates to repentance and then determine what the eternal gospel is. We examine what John the Baptist, Messiah, and Peter all taught about the gospel as well as the Great Commission. We also see what is meant by the eternal gospel mentioned in Revelation 14 and how the fear of God plays i...

Abortion is a hot topic; one argued passionately from both sides. Surprisingly, some believe that the Bible is ambiguous on this topic. In this teaching, we’ll take a quick look at the topic of abortion and the Bible. 

 In part 4 of What is the Gospel? we look at what Paul calls the mystery of the gospel. We will look at why Messiah had to die and how the prophets of Hosea, Ezekiel, and Jeremiah all work together to reveal the Father’s plan for Israel’s, and ultimately the world’s redemption. 

 In the parable of the dishonest manager found in Luke 16:1-13, we learn a few lessons such as needing to be shrewd. Some think Scripture is teaching us to be dishonest? Is that true? Beyond the obvious, what else is it that the Messiah is trying to teach us about how we spend our money, time, and other resources? 

Did the disciples of Messiah break the Sabbath when they plucked grains? Did Messiah indicate the Sabbath no longer mattered? Could he do whatever he wanted on the Sabbath because he was lord of the Sabbath as declared in the Matthew 12:1-8, Mark 2:23-28, and Luke 6:1-5 accounts? 

So many times people are asked “are you saved?”  But how many can answer the question “what is salvation?” What does it mean to be saved?

 Some people believe that only the KJV is the true Word of the Creator. Some go so far as to make outrageous and even dangerous claims about those who do not use it. What are some of these claims? Are all of their claims about the KJV true? Join us in testing KJV Onlyism, should all believers only be using the King James Version? 

King Herod the Great is mentioned very little in Scripture, yet his existence and actions had a profound impact on the life of Messiah. But who was he? What does history tell us about the man who was afraid of the coming “King of the Jews”? 

 In part 3 of What is the Gospel? we look at the gospel as revealed in the blessings and curses of obedience and disobedience to the Torah. We also see the gospel as it relates to the reunification of the whole nation of Israel, returning the House of Israel and merging it with the House of Judah with the new covenant. 

Scripture can teach us some lessons from Paul’s visit to Athens and his speech at the Areopagus (Mars Hill) found in Acts 17. A few of these lessons include how we approach a topic with someone whose views differ from ours, to not back down, and how to engage with them.

 A mainstream teaching is that you should live “your best life now,” but that is contradictory to the eternal perspective Scripture gives us. You should live the best you can now according to Scripture in order to live your best life later. 

 The Psalms teach us many things from how we should live to reminders of the Creator’s goodness and mercy. As we begin continue our bible study with studies in Psalms, we hear first of the way of the righteous in Psalm 1. Do you follow the way of the righteous or the way of the wicked? 

 In Matthew 24:20 the Messiah tells us to hope that fleeing on the Sabbath is not something to be desired. Why is this? What did he mean by this and what may be some greater implications of such a statement? 

 In part 2 of What is the Gospel? we look at the gospel according to Paul. What is it and what is the righteousness that is by faith? We then take a look at the gospel message of obedience. Join us as we examine these questions in further detail continuing our journey in understanding all of the gospel.  (Please Note: This is now Part 2 of 5, different from the original version of the What is the...
