The “Davar” Became Flesh – and Called Himself “The Son”

Every Sabbath in the Synagogues of Galilee in the first century, Jews heard the Torah and the Haftarah [Readings from the Prophets] read in Hebrew and then translated into Galilean Aramaic by a ‘meturgeman’/translator aloud for the hearers. When they did, they would run across the phrase “D’var יהוה ”, many times in the courseContinue reading “The “Davar” Became Flesh – and Called Himself “The Son””

Your Clock is Wrong! Why the Biblical Calendar is so important, and ‘new ancient’ calendars are dangerous!

  Lately, we are seeing the mention of the “Zadok Qumran” calendar, with claims that it is the most ancient and only authentic calendar. This is patently wrong, and an actual rejection of the simple truth of God’s Word and the record of History. The Zadok calendar is a new calendar derived from the Qumran/EsseneContinue reading “Your Clock is Wrong! Why the Biblical Calendar is so important, and ‘new ancient’ calendars are dangerous!”

The Name Above Every Name — Given, Not Taken

Everything Yeshua did, He did in perfect submission to His Father. Thus, He is not “god”. His Father is God, and He is His DIVINE SON. Too many people these days are trying to convince people that “Jesus is the Father, Jesus is the Son, Jesus is the Holy Spirit”, “Jesus IS God”. This isContinue reading “The Name Above Every Name — Given, Not Taken”

Islamification of America: STOP IT!

  Today, Islam is all up in the news, probably more than they have been in a while. We are watching the Islamification of Europe right now, and have been for years. My family and I saw the evidence of it when we were in England over a decade ago, walking toward the Thames whenContinue reading “Islamification of America: STOP IT!”

Tracing an Ancient Eastern Pronunciation of the Divine Name from Babylonian Jews to Modern Witnesses

  The pronunciation of God’s Name was settled in the English-speaking community a long time ago, but only among scholars. Through ancient Semitic and Greek texts, the conclusion on its pronunciation was widely accepted as “Yahweh”, but the suffix was not necessarily a hard “eh” sound only, as some also saw it as “ah”, asContinue reading “Tracing an Ancient Eastern Pronunciation of the Divine Name from Babylonian Jews to Modern Witnesses”

Anti-Semitic God – Doing away with The Son

Today, many protestants are leaving behind their heritage and returning to Catholicism.  I’ve seen a news report on it, and today I saw some Catholic podcasters bragging about the statistical win they see. Protestants are doing so because many protestant theologians and preachers are now emphasizing Yeshua’s deity, at the expense of His human identity.Continue reading “Anti-Semitic God – Doing away with The Son”

“Come Out of Her, My People!” Who is “She”?

  Don’t dismiss it yet. The title is a citation of a “New Testament”, “end times” verse. It comes from Revelation 18:4, which is Yeshua speaking, saying, “Come out of her, O my people, so that you may not become partakers of her sins, and lest you be smitten by her plagues.  For her sinsContinue reading ““Come Out of Her, My People!” Who is “She”?”

The Biblical Model for Congregational Governance

The world’s ‘churches’ are following the Nicolaitan model of ‘church governance’. Nicolaitan literally means ‘controlling the people’ and it unfortunately took root in spite of Yeshua’s warnings in Revelation 2 and 3, and it set the foundation for ‘clergy’ versus ‘laity’. Do you see the suffix of ‘Nicolaitan’ in that last word?  For three hundredContinue reading “The Biblical Model for Congregational Governance”

Torah observance vs. Gospel Freedom

  Are we saved by keeping commandments? We emphatically declare, “No!” Are we not saved if we do not keep commandments?  We emphatically declare, “Possibly!” Why? Because a saved person loves God, and keeps His commandments out of that love, and out of gratitude, and out of the guidance of Messiah Yeshua and the restContinue reading “Torah observance vs. Gospel Freedom”

Logical Summary of “Who we are” without bias

This was sent to me yesterday: Asked ChatGPT: Of all the many denominations of Jews and Christians who say they believe the Bible, what would be the most likely group to be true to the WHOLE Bible? ChatGPT said: That’s a very thoughtful and profound question — and one that has been debated for centuriesContinue reading “Logical Summary of “Who we are” without bias”
