Finding the Father’s Heart, Part 2
A Focus on Function In Romans 11:16-24 Paul, the bond servant of the Messiah, makes it very clear that through Yeshua we have been grafted into the Whole House of Israel.

I know that, but why is that important?” “No way. He is definitely not a Jew.” “Well maybe so, but if He wasContinue reading “Yeshua and the Torah”
Torah: the Greatest Crimson Thread!
Hebrew Idioms for the Torah I remember the day I first heard a teaching on the Hebrew idioms for the Torah. I was immediately overwhelmed by a flood of revelation concerning my Messiah Yeshua. I already knew many Scriptures, Old and New Testament, that contained these idioms. To suddenly see them as all connected, allContinue reading “Torah: the Greatest Crimson Thread!”

Torah: It is indeed the Bread of Life!
There is a huge controversy taking place in the Christian world today over the role of “the Law” in the life of a follower of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah). This argument can be debated with Greek and Roman based theological doctrines till one is blue in the face.
