Psalms 119:1-7 NKJV says, Blessed are the undefiled in the way, Who walk in the law of the LORD ! Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart! They also do no iniquity; they walk in His ways. You have commanded us to keep Your precepts diligently. Oh, that my ways were directed to keep Your statutes! Then I would not be ashamed, when I look into all Your commandme...

Be an example to others. The best way to become a good example to others is to learn and grow spiritually and keep God's good Old Testament commandments. The law is the foundation of a proper and good life. Proverbs 4:2 NKJV says, "For I give you good doctrine; do not forsake my law." I repeat this for those who are just starting out. Some of the commandments are for men, some for w...

God does not always intervene in life.  Why did God allow the Israelites to suffer all those years? We do not understand why God does not always act. Perhaps it has something to do with free will. If God always changes history, then mankind would not have free will. Perhaps it has something to do with the sin of Adam and Eve. They decided to do things their own way instead of what God told them. B...

It should be an evident witness to us that there is a real and good God. All that God has given us, His creation to provide for us, His commandments to help us in life, and the power of the Holy Spirit proves that God is our good creator and God. But those who reject what God has given us, His provision, commandments, and His spiritual gifts, do not believe in who God is and also reject God. Deute...

Darkness wants to rule this world, instead, be a person of light. There is enough darkness in this world so why not be a person of God's light and understanding. People need the wisdom and understanding from God and his good commandments. God's light is available to all; God wants us to accept His blessings. Join God's good kingdom. It is up to us. God will forgive us if we change o...

We feel safe because we have set boundaries in life. Often, we understand there are certain things in life that will mess us up for good. So, through God's commandments we can have a better life when we do things how the creator designed us instead of following detrimental behaviors. Psalms 34:14 NKJV says, "Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. To do good is to keep Go...

The work of the Holy Spirit in our life is also necessary in this Messianic era. Begin learning and growing in all the spiritual fundamentals of what we are to believe in. We need to trust God; we need to have faith in God. Keeping God's commandments is a basic doctrine that we need to believe in. Proverbs 4:2 NKJV says, "For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law." Also, a...

Many people do whatever they think is the right way to live instead of relying on what God the creator told us is best. Isaiah 40:8 NKJV says, "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever." Every year, most of the vegetation turns brown and dormant in colder climates, but God's word and His commandments are good forever. There is no season of life or...

Why do we believe what we believe? Is it because we want the truth of what the Bible says, or do we believe in something because that is what we would rather hear and do? There is a big difference between God accepting me as I am, and that God is a loving God who knows what is best for us. Because we believe that God is a loving God, we will keep His commandments knowing that God has our best inte...

How will people hear about the goodness of God if you do not tell others. I urge you to try to communicate to others the important principle about the goodness of God that we talk about frequently. How will people know about the goodness of God if we do not tell them? God's commandments, His law, are intended to help us in life. They can prosper us and help us to have success in life. Joshua...

Believe the whole Bible in its correct context. What about when a person refuses to check what they are saying against the Bible when there is reason to believe the person is wrong? We talk about some of the problems with doctrine that occur. Here are a few of the major ones: People will deny or contradict what the scriptures say. Some take the scriptures out of their original context. Some refuse...

A couple of months after my friend Dave came back from doing ministry in India, he told me that he prayed for a blind man and all this stuff began oozing out of the man’s eyes and the blind man was healed instantly. My friend Larry prayed for a teenage boy in Russia whose one leg was shorter than the other. He put his hand on the boy’s leg and while he had his hand on the boy’s leg, the leg grew t...

People who have good intentions but lack the truths of God's word will not escape God's just judgment. God knows everyone’s deepest intentions, and nothing is hidden from God. 1 Chronicles 28:9 NKJV says, "The LORD searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever."...

We can have peace in life knowing we have truths for life. Psalms 119:160 "The entirety of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever." Psalms 85:10-11 says, "Righteousness and peace have kissed. Truth shall spring out of the earth." Let us hope and pray that more people will begin living God's truths for life, do what is "right and...

We must always remember that what God promises He is able to do and will accomplish even if we oppose God. Not following God the way we should can bring dire consequences to our lives. God wants to give us His blessings. God has plans for us, but if we reject them, God will give away our blessing to someone else just like God gave the blessing to Ya'akov instead of Esau. Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV s...

Shaul shares how Kefa (Peter), and others reacted and stopped eating with Gentiles when those adding laws to the Torah were present. Tension was created by a misapplication of the law. It says in Exodus 34:14-16 that they were not to eat with an idolater which at the time meant they were forming a bond with them. We are not to bond with idolators. But the Gentiles they stopped eating with in the l...

Often, people who believe in God have seen an amazingly good transformation in their lives and in the lives of others who believe in God and keep His commandments. For thousands of years people have benefitted from God's commandments. The Bible testifies to this. Let's read some encouraging scriptures about the Old Testament portion commandments. God is good and therefore His commandment...

Abraham and Avimelekh made an agreement. When they start their talks, Avimelekh seems to accuse Abraham of being a liar. Abrahm refuses to be emotionally upset and works out an agreement but does tell Avimelekh that Avimelech's servants took Abrahams well. Abraham gives Avimelekh 7 lambs as a witness for the well Abraham dug at Be'er Sheva.  Abraham is an example to us in many ways. He r...

1 Thessalonians 5:23 NKJV says, "Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." According to Shaul, we are three-fold beings having a body, life, and spirit. The word "soul" can also be translated life and is translated as life almost half of the time. So, we hav...

God planned that the Messiah would give Himself. Isaiah 53:6 NKJV says, "All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all." Yeshua did not stay dead but rose from the dead. Psalms 16 talks about the Messiah not having to have bodily decomposition. Psalms 16:8-10 NKJV I have set the LORD always before me; be...

Worldly values are often the things that are taught in our schools in the United States instead of spiritual values. Parents often focus on worldly values in their home. For example, parents will talk about how well their children are doing at school or in some activity instead of how well they are following God. That is something that needs to change so that we convey the importance of our spirit...

I frequently point out that if nations just kept the commandments to not murder and not covet, we would have fewer wars. That is the amazing impact of just two of God’s commandments. The 10 Commandments are good commandments and so are the other commandments in the Old Testament. Also, there are many good applications of the Old Testament commandments in the New Testament portion. God commandments...

The portion of Noach begins by telling us that Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth and that Noah walked with God. Genesis 6:9 NKJV says, "Noah walked with God." Walking with God means that he kept God's commandments. Deuteronomy 28:9 NKJV says, "The LORD will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD...

In other writings like the books of Jasher, Josephus, and Jubilees, we see that Abraham becomes a believer probably because he lived with the family of Noah for a while. Nimrod is the king of the area around Ur in Chaldee, and he became a terrible and selfish person who did not follow God's commandments. He is building a tower to go into the heavens to fight with God according to other ancien...
