Sermon Updated 2021. The text that gets brought up and discussed the most around Christmas (among Christians) is probably Jeremiah 10:1-5. You've likely seen memes on social media saying Jeremiah 10 condemns the Christmas tree, and you've probably seen or heard others say, "No, it's about an idol?" Who is right? This lesson briefly reviews what we've covered in this series, and then spends some time dissecting what is taking place in the Jeremiah text. 

Sermon Updated 2021. Does anyone really know when Yeshua was born? Why was December 25 chosen? What about a Sukkot birth? What does history have to teach us? This lesson answers all these questions and more, encouraging everyone to take a more balanced look at both Scripture and history.

Sermon Updated 2021. Before moving into the theories for the December 25 date the scene in first century Israel needs to be set. There were actually two winter feasts celebrated in and around Israel in the first century. What were they, and what was their significance?

Sermon Updated 2021. This lesson is the introductory to a series on the holiday known as Christmas. I discuss my beginnings with looking into the holiday, the birth narratives of Matthew and Luke, the Ante-Nicene Church Fathers, and the idea that Yeshua was born at Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles).

In this final installment in the modesty series, I look at a few objections that are usually given from others who feel that Yahweh doesn't really care or look at our outward appearance. I also deal with some particulars that are rarely dealt with.

Many people who feel women should not wear pants base that teaching on a passage of Scripture found in Deuteronomy 22:5. But what was in Yahweh's "mind" and the minds of His people when He originally gave this law? Should a woman never put on a pair of pants?

We learn so many truths from simply going back to the book of beginnings. Among these truths is the one concerning modesty. The reason for outward modesty stems from the fall of mankind into sin. This has not changed any more than pain in child bearing or working by the sweat of the face.

A four week radio broadcast that expands upon our book on this subject. This is an overlooked topic for the most part in Christendom today and we need to bring it to the forefront. These lessons were originally taught in 2007, but have been re-taught in 2013.

Robert Wirl of Yahweh's Philadelphia Truth Congregation and Matthew Janzen of Ministers of the New Covenant have a friendly discussion on the issue of the New Moon. The issue centers in on what determines a biblical new moon; the first visible crescent or the conjunction.

Who is this man from Nazareth? Should we adopt the Trinitarian model? Should we accept the Deity of Christ teaching? These questions and many more are considered in this exhaustive study.

If Yeshua is not Yahweh shouldn't we find areas where the two do not share certain characteristics? What do we do with the attributes that are shared by the Father and the Son? Do we just ignore these Scriptures?

Yeshua is Elohim, but what does this phraseology actually mean? There is no doubt that Thomas referred to him with the Greek title Theos (stemming from the Hebrew elohim) in John 20:28. Did this mean that Thomas believed Yeshua to be the second person of the Trinity?
