The Biblically Correct Podcast (Messianic Jewish)

It has been an issue in modern Messianic Jewish congregations basically since the beginning: many Gentile congregants have felt like second-class citizens in part because they've heard the often-repeated refrain, "to the Jew first." In this episode, Kevin looks at the Scriptures to determine if this possible doctrine of favoritism has any basis in Scripture, and, if so, whether it is compatible wi...

For a full week every year, beginning at Passover, God commands Israel to eat only food made without leaven (matzah) as a reminder of how God brought freedom to Israel and rescued them from their slavery in Egypt forever. In this episode, Kevin helps you to inwardly prepare yourself for the Passover season with a powerful insight into the matzah that will reveal and convict your heart of your true...

As Messianic Jews, what should our attitude be toward Jewish tradition? According to some, Paul tells us that we should keep the traditions of Judaism, just as long as they don't contradict or violate Scripture. But is such an assertion really true?

Each one of us believes that we know what’s true—what’s right and good. But without a sole, objective standard to guide and enlighten us, then what’s really true will be nearly impossible to find—namely, the absolute truth of the word of God.

When we seek out and listen to other voices of influence to provide us guidance about how to live our lives as believers in Yeshua, were saying that God’s own words aren’t enough—that every Scripture that was breathed onto the page by God Himself is insufficient. In this second part of a 3-part series, Kevin reveals the hostile influences which you may be allowing to work in your life that are kee...

Many Jewish and Gentile Messianics are drawn to Chanukah in large part because of how they see Chanukah fulfilled in Yeshua. But what if injecting Jesus into a Jewish holiday isn’t the point? What if the real point of Chanukah isn’t about miracles, latkes and lights, but something far more powerful and fundamental to our faith? In this episode, Kevin explains how knowing the real story of Chanukah...

The Bible clearly teaches, "Believe in the Master Yeshua, and you will be saved." But what if the Bible also says that being a believer doesn't just mean believing? That despite that belief, you might not actually be saved and receive eternal life? In this episode, Kevin scripturally exhorts us not toward a works-based faith, but toward a belief that moves us to be more than just a "believer." Thi...

Rosh Hashanah—the Jewish New Year, the Feast of Trumpets. It's the second-biggest holiday in Judaism, kicking off the high holy day season. Yet sadly, the beautiful and profound traditions of Rosh Hashanah are not found in the Bible. In today's episode, Kevin takes a Scriptural look at this important day to explain what Judaism gets wrong, the true meaning of the appointed time, and how the tradit...

Both Jews and Christians agree: a Jew who believes in Jesus (Yeshua) is now a Christian. So what reason could there possibly be for a Jewish follower of Yeshua *not* to want to be called a “Christian?” Is he just being disingenuous? Maybe he’s denying his faith. In this episode, Kevin explains both from the Scriptures and his personal experience, how Jews can legitimately believe in and give their...

The Bible is a spiritual book, taught to us by the Holy Spirit. So isn’t it contradictory—maybe even blasphemous—to use logic and reason to understand it? In this episode, Kevin explores the Scriptures to determine if or how logic and reason are opposed to the Spirit, and how they might all work together to help us comprehend the truth of the Scriptures.

If God is one—undivided—and the Scriptures are the written word of God, then why do we think that there can be more than one legitimate interpretation of the Bible? We apparently believe this to be so, since we allow ourselves to disagree with one another about what the Scriptures say. In this episode, Kevin challenges the concepts of denominations and doctrinal divisions, and exhorts us all in th...

The Scriptures make it abundantly clear that Yeshua is coming again—returning in triumphant glory! But is His soon return really as imminent as many would like to believe? Is it true that right now, especially at this increasingly chilling time in modern history, that Yeshua could return at any moment? But what if the Bible says that there's something else which needs to happen first? WATCH ON YOU...

Anyone who’s ever read the Bible knows that while the word of God holds the answers to the deepest, most profound questions of our lives, it can also leave us asking more questions. But if we want to know the truth of the Scriptures, then we must avoid asking the single most deceptive and diverting question of them all. In this episode, Kevin explains how this one question is the worst question an...

When believers in Yeshua say that they’re “Messianic,” what exactly do they mean? Does it mean they hold strange, unbiblical beliefs? Does it represent a profound, scriptural understanding of the faith not embraced by traditional Christianity? Could it be a combination of both? In this episode, Kevin explores the origins and meaning of the word "messianic," both from a biblical perspective, and fr...
