I’m crazy. I know that’s what many think, simply because I call Him “Yeshua”, and not His English name.I’m crazy because I embraced my Jewish heritage.Because I follow the Torah, and keep the Sabbath, and HIS FEASTS, and not the papal mandate of “sunday”, “saturnalia/christmas, and ishtar/easter.I’m crazy for thinking that most of today’s congregations,Continue reading “Calm y crazy”

Judgey people will run with that!  But, the scriptures call Lot a Tzadik.  A Tzadik is a “Just One”.  “Just” in the sense of ‘having been justified’.  The Messiah was prophesied to be “HaTzadik”, “THE Just One,” and His ‘justification’ was given after He bore all OUR sins on theContinue reading “I’m a lot!”
