Mnc Fellowship

Positions and Rank are not the same as the forgiveness of sins and salvation. There is still such a thing as the special treasure of physical Israel, but there is also such a thing as a non-Israelite who joins the nation of Israel to serve Yahweh. I also talk about the definition and standing of the eunuch among Israel.

If we catalog all the times Yahweh commands Israel to love and take care of the foreigner, widow, orphan, and poor person, it far outweighs any other commandment given in Torah. Some specifics of the Hebrew word ger are covered, and then I take the time to talk about when a person comes to Yahweh, He does not look at their background, last name, or ethnicity, He looks at their heart and mind.

After Peter’s sermon on the Day of Pentecost, 3,000 people were baptized, but they didn’t join the local, Christian church. Listen to learn about the promise given here and what exactly happened for these devout Jews that day. It’s important that the Messianic assemblies today do their best to mirror that early first century faith.

Whenever someone hears me talk about animal sacrifices (or reads something I’ve written), there’s almost always a few people who clap back with “Obedience is better than sacrifice!” Where do they get that from? Can that statement be substantiated from Holy Scripture?

I never really paid attention to this verse until going through the Book of the Law meticulously. We should always slow down and read each verse carefully, only then will we see the intent Yahweh brings across. Animal sacrifices are often vilified by Christians today. This verse (and many others) shows that full worship to Yahweh is not accomplished apart from animal sacrifices. 

Let’s take a look into why there’s even a law against bestiality in the Torah - not one time but in four different places. This is not something I would choose to teach on, but I teach verse-by-verse and I’m not going to leave anything out. 

At the end of Peter’s “Pentecost Sermon” many of his fellow Israelites are pricked in their heart and thus convicted about what they did to Yeshua of Nazareth. They asked the question, “What must we do?” This lesson gives an overview of Peter’s instructions for their forgiveness, and the gift they’d be given. 

What really happened when Saul visited the Witch of Endor? There have been various interpretations on this passage throughout history. I ask that we just slow down and read the text, and then we can branch out to a couple of additional texts that speak to the matter.

In 1 Samuel 28 we have a contrast: inquiring of Yahweh by way of a dream, prophet, or the Urim vs. going to talk to a witch. The choice is still yours. Do you rely on and trust Yahweh for answers to life, or are you searching in other areas?

Sorcery, witchcraft, fortune-telling, mediums, and necromancies oh my! Listen to learn about all of this plus how signs, wonders, and miracles from Yahweh through a prophet are similar yet juxtaposed to these occult practices. No “happy Halloween” here for sure. Stay with Yah’s Torah.

I had four brothers join me for a discussion about their turning from atheism to theism due to the study of the Biblical Creation Model. Atheism is an area somewhat foreign to me; I’ve looked at it from the outside in, but because I grew up in a conservative, Christian home I don’t know what it “feels” like. These brothers helped me understand a bit and what a joy it was to listen to their testimonies of deliverance!

Peter has already pulled from Psalm 16 in his sermon, but he now pulls from another Psalm, and lo and behold it’s one in which there are two Lords! One is Yahweh, and the other is the Master of King David. Listen to learn about the appointed and anointed Messiah and Lord, Yeshua of Nazareth.

This was the concluding sermon to our Feast of Tabernacles 2023 - a call for us to love our brothers and sisters. Do you really love your neighbor? If you don’t then you do not have salvation. This is a call to be introspective.

You CAN live a righteous life; Yahweh is an encourager of that to you. Each day you live should be one in which you consciously make a decision to do the right things. It’s time to let go of the false doctrine that our righteous deeds are filthy rags. At the same time, a righteous person acknowledges they still need repaired. Humility admits and confesses sins we are still trying to break free from. In the middle of this lesson I touch on the word propitiation, and look at the idea of Penal Substitutionary Atonement (theory). 

There are some people who profess Christ that are liars, so says the Apostle John. What makes someone a liar? This lesson covers some thoughts on how exactly the blood of Yeshua cleanses us from sin, and encourages us to give love back to Yahweh who loved us first. 

I share how 1 John 1:1 correlates with Genesis 1:1 and John 1:1, and what the word of Elohim is. Towards the end of the lesson I discuss how my fellowship with Yahweh and Yeshua blossomed when I realized they were really Father and Son.

Yahweh raised Yeshua from the dead, and it was prophesied to happen before hand by King David. But where did David speak about it?

We are actually commanded in Scripture to memorize the Torah. Have you hidden Yah’s word in your heart? How are you spending your time?

What is a shekel? I cover the amount in silver required for a bride-price in the case of enticement, and then I make some final remarks on dealing with young adults realistically. I also encourage married couples to keep the fire of love burning.

Yeshua is a man. How does that make you feel? This sermon centers in on the first words from Apostle Peter after he finishes quoting prophet Yo’el. Yahweh performed His greatest of all works through a man from Nazareth, and we must believe in this man whom He hath sent.
