With the war raging in Israel and the surge of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionist/Israel language, lots of people are opining about things, and displaying their ignorance. Christians who hate Israel are steeped in ignorance. Messianic people who hate Jews are steeped in ignorance. People jump to conclusions when their itching ears are scratched by deceitful teachersContinue reading “We say “Shield”, you say “Star””

A Hitch in Your Giddy-up
A very prominent preacher, Andy Stanley, has recently told his church, and the whole world, that Christians need to ‘unhitch’ their faith from the “Old Testament.” God is saying to those who would hear, “Come out of her, My people.” Peter said it, and Paul said it. John said it. They each said that inContinue reading “A Hitch in Your Giddy-up”
Cross-dressers
Those who wear the cross sometimes crucify people. That is overt hypocrisy. Theoretically, they are claiming faith in the Jewish Messiah, who died for the sins of the whole world. But they do not seem to want to offer that compassion to others. 5“A woman shall not wear that which pertains unto a man, neitherContinue reading “Cross-dressers”
Call me Igmo
Yes, that is what many think. Those of us who started decrying the supposed ‘new virus’ way back in January of 2020 were thought to be wing-nuts, far-right conspiracy theorists. “Off kilter”. What most people don’t understand is that we are actually the very tip of the spear, going directly up the center; it’s justContinue reading “Call me Igmo”
What does Hebrew?
Do you want to drink the same drink as Yeshua? The ultimate goal of my life is both to understand Yeshua more, and to communicate Him more clearly to the world. Some would argue that our use of Hebrew does just the opposite. I get it. Taking on any new language is a daunting taskContinue reading “What does Hebrew?”
Good News!
“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the one who announces good news, who makes peace to be heard, who announces goodness, and makes Salvation to be heard! Say to Zion, your God rules!” I translated this on the fly from Isaiah 52: מַה נָּאווּ עַל הֶהָרִים רַגְלֵי מְבַשֵּׂר מַשְׁמִיעַ שָׁלוֹם מְבַשֵּׂר טוֹבContinue reading “Good News!”
Overcome!
Sin is a problem. In the world we live in, it has become “fringe” to consider anything a sin anymore, even among believers. Many people who consider themselves christian do not think that they have to steer clear of sin after they come to faith. They think that since their Jesus died on a crossContinue reading “Overcome!”
“Anti Christs” : Identify Friend or Faux
When I was young, I heard adults assert that Ronald Reagan, when he was running for president against Jimmy Carter, was the ‘anti christ’. Their reason? Because there were six letters in each of his names: R-o-n-a-l-d = 6, W-i-l-s-o-n = 6 R-e-a-g-a-n = 6. The absurdity of it was laughable to me, even asContinue reading ““Anti Christs” : Identify Friend or Faux”
ישוע
What is our standard? Mine is the written WORD of GOD. That is also for and especially concerning the Name of Yeshua. Yeshua / ישוע is His Name in Hebrew. There are so many wing-nut versions of His Name flying around in “Messianic/hebrew roots” circles that it is embarrassing, and a disservice to His Kingdom.Continue reading “ישוע”
You Foolish Galatians
An honest look at a confusing book (2 Peter 3:14). Galatians might be the most misunderstood and misquoted book in all of the Renewed Covenant scriptures. Or perhaps Romans 3-8 is. But, the two deal with the same notion, and are very related, and very misrepresented among even leading theologians. These books are very toughContinue reading “You Foolish Galatians”
