Trials are... trials. They are tough, and unpleasant when we go through them. But they are given to us by Yahweh to make us into who He would have us to be. We should pray for wisdom to know how to go through them, not escape them. If Yahweh has blessed you with faith, that faith will get you through every trial, no matter how hard it may seem.

This broadcast begins to look at Scriptures that are commonly used to teach the Oneness or One Name doctrine. The texts dealt with here are John 5:43 and 46, Matthew 21:9, and Jeremiah 23:5-6.

Judge not, lest ye be judged. That seems to be the favorite verse of both believers and non-believers. What does it mean though? Listen to learn how that we should make moral judgments in life, but not do so in a judgmental, critical, self righteous way. Brother Ron Myers opens this lesson with a song he wrote called "Love."

Do the Father and the Son have the exact same name? Listen to learn what the text of Scripture (the manuscripts) really teach us.

Earthly leaders often seek to shove around authority. In doing so, we feel that we are showing ourselves as boss. But is this the Biblical model? What are the Scriptural qualities of righteous leaders? The answer may sound backwards, but we must remember that Yahweh knows what is best in all things, including teaching us how we ought to lead.

According to this verse (and many others) the believer will experience trials and troubles in life. How do we react to these things? Are we constantly complaining? Do we lose faith during hard times? Or, do we recognize that the trying of our faith produces endurance?

When Yeshua uttered the words "love your enemies" (as recorded by Luke), what particular enemies did he have in mind? This lesson also covers the need to always remember that every one of us was an enemy of Yahweh when He loved us. This will aid in helping us to love others who are unbelieving, ungrateful, and do not love us back.

This lesson covers Yeshua's command to love our enemies. Or is it Moses' command? Listen to learn how the command to love our enemies wasn't something new in Messiah. The reality is, when we love our enemies, we are following Father Yahweh's example.

James 1:1 is covered. The author and the audience. The 12 tribes of Israel, scattered abroad, are the recipients of this letter. Something usually glanced over by most readers of the New Testament.

This lesson covers the significance of mourning and weeping over sin verses making light of sin, and dissects what it originally meant to be hated for the Son of Man.

The hungry (like the poor) are spiritually hungry. They hunger for righteousness. Both the righteousness only found in the Messiah, and the righteousness that they do in imitation of the Savior.

Did Yeshua bless all poor people and curse all rich people? Listen to learn about wealth, riches, poverty, humility, pride, and the Gospel for the broken.

If anyone had something to boast about (credential wise) it was Paul. But, this apostle considered himself the chief of sinners and not yet mature as he ought to be. We must do the same. The first step to getting well is to admit that we are sick and accept the medicine of the Gospel of Christ.

Yeshua spends all night praying to Yahweh and then chooses 12 apostles. After this he comes down from the mountain and teaches and heals. In this message I cover prayer in light of Yahweh's sovereignty as well as Yahweh choosing ordinary people for extraordinary work.

Sometimes, Romans 14 is used in an attempt to say that the dietary laws of Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 have been abolished. This lesson takes the time to walk through the entire chapter and explain that such is not the case.

After Yeshua taught in the synagogue on the Sabbath, he decided that a man with a paralyzed hand needed to be healed. The Jewish leaders didn't like this and sought to accuse and even kill Yeshua. Did Yeshua break the Sabbath here? Was Yeshua trying to get people to see that the Sabbath wasn't all that important?

Before healing diseases, before casting out demons, before walking on water, you would always finding Yeshua doing something of utmost importance: teaching. We should enjoy solid, Scriptural teaching, both in listening to it, and in giving it in any capacity.

The Pharisees were spying on Yeshua and His disciples while they went through some grain fields on the second chief sabbath. The Pharisees then accused them of doing something unlawful. Was it unlawful? Was what David did unlawful?

Before moving into and explaining Luke 6:1-5 we must consider the peculiar reading Luke gives to us in verse 1. What kind of Sabbath was this? Was it just a normal Sabbath, or is there a reason the King James Version calls it "the second Sabbath after the first?" Listen to learn about the technical aspects of this reading.

Why didn't Yeshua's disciples fast often like John's or the Pharisees disciples? And what in the world did new garments and old garments, new wine and old wineskins have to do with this?
