    Galatians 3:8-14

    Gal 3: 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. (MY NOTE: 430 yrs (Gal 3:17) BEFORE God gives the Law to Moses. God promises Abraham justification (see KJB dictionary...

    The Law or Love? Another one of my writings from around 2009

    The Law or Love When you fear the Lord and do his will out of fear, you are keeping the law. You do this because you fear his judgment on you if you break the law. This is good. This is the beginning of wisdom. Now when you love the Lord with all of your heart, you will do his will because...

    International perspectives on Abortion

    With the death of Ruth B Ginsburg the possibility of having enough conservative supreme court justices to reverse Roe v Wade looms. Or at very least to allow a change of the principles governing the law allowing for more flexibility on the state level or more restrictions overall. The principles...

    What scriptures brought you to a Messianic practice?

    Greetings, Brethren. I know what brought me to an understanding that viewing the Law, the Sabbath and the holy days was congruent with the good news of this new covenant through Yashua/Jesus our Lord, and I would love to hear what brought you here. Not all of us were raised in the Jewish or...

    Christians intimidated for views on homosexuality

    How should a Christian react when people try to intimidate them for their views on homosexuality? How to respond without hurting feelings but stating the truth?

    Is the Sabbath an eternal moral law for humanity?

    Hi, I would like to once again challenge those Christians who keep a weekly Sabbath. I want to examine two lines of overlapping thought within the Sabbath keeping belief system. First is the view that because the Sabbath is listed with the Ten Commandments it is therefore a moral law (eternal)...

    Was the Sabbath given to man at creation as a special day to worship God?

To begin I would like to ask, was the Sabbath given to man at creation as a special day to worship God? Let's look at the relevant text: By the seventh day God completed...

    Every jot and tittle

    Hi all. I've had a look at a few threads here which deal with the old law and how it correlates to the new testament. There seems to be a growing number of people today who want to go back to the old law as though the old ways are superior to what Jesus taught. I believe this video does a...

    WHY THE LAW IS A PART OF THE GOSPEL

    Hi all there seems to be some confusion here for some people on this topic and being critical subject matter, I throught it would be good to share a different perspective as to why God's Law applied both to the Torah (all laws) but specifically to God's 10 commandments are a part of the Gospel...

    Torah + Prophets

    "Always treat others as you would like them to treat you; that sums up the teaching of the Torah and the Prophets". Matthew 7:12 The perfect love of the heavenly Father is most reflected in His children when they treat others as they themselves wish to be treated. Ask yourself whether the...

    Who gave the Law? Moses or Yahweh?

    Hello everyone, I find it fascinating that not once (that I can find) did Jesus ever refer to the Law as God's Law, but only ever as the Law of Moses. I also find it fascinating that the NT at several places says the Law was given by angels (Acts 7:38, 7:53; Galatians 3:19; Hebrews 2:2) - this...

    Understanding Christ: A Look Through The Book Of Luke - Luke 6

    There is a reason why the caption for this series says: UNDERSTANDING CHRIST: A Look through the Book of Luke. It is a look through the book of Luke for given the time frame we have we cannot fully exhaust the contents of the book of Luke in one month. So pardon me if my blog post tends to...

    Spotlight on Heresy

    Imagine a forum where those who are washed in the Blood of the Lamb, and who have God's Righteousness imputed to them, could celebrate together the Joy of Salvation, the Joy of the Lord, and find deep teaching for their spirit and rest for their soul. Imagine a forum where Grace rules in the...
