Eclipse 2024: The Prophetic Heavens Declare (2 Things that You Should Do to Prepare)

4/3/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In this episode, we'll examine Genesis chapter one's explanation of why the lights in the heavens hold such great significance. Psalms tells us that they DECLARE. They SPEAK. They REVEAL. They have a VOICE and utter WORDS. With this in mind, what, if anything, should we be found doing in regards to the 2024 solar eclipse? Let's find out!

The REAL Reason Why Christianity Celebrates & Memorializes Easter Instead of Passover

3/29/2024
This audio-only episode is not intended to be accusatory or rude, but rather explores specific quotes from the Catholic encyclopedias and catechisms that inform us why the festival of Easter is celebrated today by mainstream Christianity. This is merely historical quotes, and then commentary towards them, in order to help us rightly understand why Easter has replaced Passover in the modern Church. Do you want to know? Let's find out!

Part 2 - Avoiding the Trap of "We Know Better Now"

3/29/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In this episode we'll list five examples of how the religion that we have inherited has removed what the Bible says towards a matter. "I know what the Bible says about _________, but 'we know better now'" is found as surprisingly predominant in our belief systems, when one begins to see it. We will culminate with a solution. Humility. Unbiased study of the Word. Do we *really* "know better" now? Let's find out!

Part 1 - Avoiding the Trap of "We Know Better Now"

3/29/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In this episode we'll highlight Deuteronomy chapter four's command to "not add to or take away from" Yahweh's commands. The non-believing Pharisees of Yeshua's day "added to" and today's Christianity is "taking away from." Both are equally guilty. So what about us? Are you striving to be free from *both* of these errors? Let's find out!

Provision: Commentary on Mark 11:1-6

3/18/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. We'll take a few moments to peer into the situation when Yeshua sends out two of His disciples to retrieve a colt, for His use. I believe that there are many levels of consideration within this account, worthy of our examination. Yahweh invites us all into the wonderful unfolding of His provision and plans. Sometimes we get to be the one to go and "get" and sometimes we'll be the ones that watch our animal walk away. Are you postured to be a part of Father's provision? Let's find out!

What Is Good? What Is Evil? How Can We Know?

2/29/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In an age where morals continue to decline and organized religion walks further away from black and white lines, where is a man to turn, if he wants to be found holy and set apart? The answer is clear. We've been shown how to walk. What did Yahweh declare through Moses thousands of years ago? What did the Jerusalem council instruct those coming into the New Covenant to do, and why? And how did the new converts receive the commands that they must follow, in Messiah? "They rejoiced because of its encouragement." For those who truly want to know what the Creator calls good and what He calls evil, we must get outside of today's cultural and religious appropriation and return to the Scriptures. There is a way to walk! Do you know this? Let's find out!

Awakening To The Ancient Way

2/16/2024
Some commentary and encouragement for those who are hearing the call to come out and be separate. Many biblical accounts record men *starting* with the Torah and the Prophets when revealing the full Gospel. Even Yeshua Himself started here. For example: Luke chapter 24 tells us, "And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, [Yeshua] interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself." What will we do when we discover that much of what we've inherited is found to be lacking or in error? Will we return to the ancient way? Let's find out!

Is Yahweh (God) Ever Angry... With You?

2/14/2024
If we look back to the biblical history of righteous men, we often see them willingly confessing that the Creator has become angry with them. In this audio episode, we'll discuss the importance of admitting that sometimes we're not in right standing with Yahweh and are set to receive His righteous anger. Isaiah chapter 12 speaks of a prophesied day when He will comfort His people, that He was angry with, for a time. Are we postured to be these? Let's find out!

Part 2 - BEFORE Mt Sinai: Altars & Clean Animals

2/12/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In part 2 we'll examine the many biblical appearances of altars and the existence of clean animals. Both appear long before the giving of the Law. We see them with Cain and Abel, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and even Moses (among others), before the events of Mt. Sinai. Most of us have inherited a belief that these things were only "for the Jews" but yet we see them long before the specifics of Books like Leviticus and Numbers. So what should we do about this? Let's find out!

Part 1 - BEFORE Mt Sinai: Sacrifices & Offerings

2/11/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. The series gets underway by looking at Yahweh's reasons for choosing Abraham and his seed. Then, we'll go all the way back to Genesis chapter 4, where we see offerings being made unto the Most High. All throughout the Scriptures we hear of righteous men making sacrifices to Yahweh and bringing offerings. And the most significant part of this? These events are all found taking place long *before* Mt. Sinai. We will begin to examine two of these four wonderful biblical patterns. Will you join us?

Who Are We?

2/1/2024
Are those who believe in the Bible merely "Christians" now? Evangelicals? Protestants? "Replacement Israel?" While many people would just answer this question with a simple answer, what if we have missed the covenantal identity that Yahweh has for His Set Apart People of faith? Do you know who you are? Let's find out!

Part 2 - Can Men Guide Other Men to the Truth?

1/15/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. In this episode we'll discuss the use of the word "guide" in our primary text (Acts 8.) While many a man has been led astray by other men, that should not be an excuse to write off His using of others to speak to us. The key we'll present is this: discernment. Even here we see Philip starting to share the Gospel, beginning with the Torah and the Prophets. Time and time again the biblical pattern is clear. Make sure the Gospel agrees with what was foretold. Lastly, the humility of the Ethiopian man is of utmost importance. Are we so desperate to know what is true that we too will invite another to sit beside us and guide us into truth? Let's find out!

Part 1 - Can Men Guide Other Men to the Truth?

1/14/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. Is the account of Philip and the Ethiopian, in Acts chapter 8, an anomaly or a repeated biblical pattern? I'm afraid that in an age where we've become so isolated and individualistic, we're missing the wonder of Father intersecting men in such a way - for His purposes. This episode will discuss the need for others to find the *fullness* of all that Yahweh wants us to learn and understand properly.

Walking the Narrow Way - 10 for 10 Series

1/12/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. We've been told that the narrow is hard to find, and even less travelled. Why is that? Perhaps it is partly because we, in many ways, have not inherited a proper understanding of what it even is. In this episode we'll discuss some Bible texts that discuss this topic. Are you walking the narrow way? Let's find out!

Properly Handling the Bible - 10 for 10 Series

1/11/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. All of us have been guilty of cherry-picking Bible verses in order to promote what we want them to say. We will use a popular text in Malachi to drive home the danger of this error. If we are to properly understand, and fully apply the entire Word, we must be found doing all that we can to rightly divide the Word, and read It in Its entirety. Do you make sure that you're reading your Bible fairly and wholly *before* you make assumptions in regards to what It's saying? Let's find out!

Did Yeshua (Jesus) ”Break” the Sabbath? - 10 for 10 Series

1/10/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. One must rightly understand that *false* accusations were constantly brought up against Messiah in order to judge Him unfairly. One is that He stated that, and acted as if, He was "above the Sabbath." So was He? Or did He disobey His Father's command to "remember the Sabbath and keep it holy", thereby instituting merely a constant "sabbath rest" now, with no longer a need for a set apart day? Let's find out! * In this episode I mention what it biblically means to "keep" the commandments. Here is Part 1 of that series. https://youtu.be/lzhNS3G-E40?si=EvzOsfh2l-GZndVF

Torah: Blessing or Curse? - 10 for 10 Series

1/9/2024
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. Many people today are quite confused as to the purpose of Torah. I went 45 years of my Christian life, without any proper understanding of Its function. In my confusion and doctrinal error, I thought that it was a burden, a curse. In this episode we'll discuss many Scriptures that speak to the blessings of the Torah, for those who submit to It. Today, can you say, as David did, that Father's "Torah is perfect, reviving the soul?" Let's find out!
