Today, America transitioned. And there is plenty of commentary on what happened, but none of it [yet] has covered the things that I most appreciated. We are a democratic republic, and many Americans do not know that. It means we are not a pure ‘democracy,’ which is mob rule. We have checks and balances, andContinue reading “Out with the bad air, in with the good!”

Jews of Messiah
If you trust in the Son of God, Yeshua [Jesus] the Messiah for salvation, you are no longer a “Gentile”. You have become a biblical, spiritual Jew.

Hallelu Yah! Play it, David!
Some have come to eschew playing music in a congregational setting. I ask them to read this! 😉 Personally, I really enjoy a cappella worship; almost half of what we do in the Synagogue is a cappella. But, even in the “New Testament”, instruments are seen in worship, but because of lack of knowledge, peopleContinue reading “Hallelu Yah! Play it, David!”
Happy Kalends of January
January is the first month of the Gregorian Calendar. This calendar was introduced on October 15, in 1582 by a pope, Gregory XIII, hence, ‘Gregorian’, because of a recognized issue with the length of the Julian calendar that Rome operated under for 1600+ years [since 45BC].

You Asked For It
I was going to stay away from X-Mass this year in my commentary. I do not condemn anyone who does it, because I once observed it, not only as a child, but as an adult who had been studying the scriptures for several years. However, when I learned the truth of the origin of it,Continue reading “You Asked For It”

Thanksgiving and Khanukah!
Happy Thanksgiving! And Happy Khanukah! Thanksgiving is a civil ‘holiday’, that was rooted in the celebration of religious freedom. It is a great way to remember that many of our earliest founders were leaving behind corrupted religions and religious persecution to come to America to try to create a society that better reflected the faithContinue reading “Thanksgiving and Khanukah!”
Are You on the Right Path? The Truth is Closer Than You Think
It’s ELECTION DAY. And lots of Americans are super passionate about getting out the vote. And they should be!

What Exactly is “Fulfill”?
When the Messiah began teaching at the very beginning of His ministry, he started by describing how a person becomes truly HAPPY. He actually said, “Ashrei,” or HAPPY: אַשְׁרֵי עֲנִיֵּי ברוּחַ כִּי לָהֶם מַלְכוּת הַשָׁמָיִם : “Happy are those who are poor in spirit, for unto them is the Kingdom of Heaven given.” And thenContinue reading “What Exactly is “Fulfill”?”
