Part 1: Repaired and Redeemed

* The first few minutes of audio is off. Bear through it or feel free to skip ahead.
* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
A few days ago I realized that there are some things in my life that have not just been merely repaired and healed, but actually redeemed unto their Creator-given purpose. This short series uses my personal testimony to demonstrate this simple, yet powerful principle.

Podcast Update & Commentary: February 23

In this brief episode, we'll discuss an overview of where we've been as of late and where we might be heading next. Why do we do what we do here? What is our primary purpose and goal? Thank you for listening!

Our One Example: Yeshua Messiah

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
In 1 Peter chapter 2 we're told of the purpose for which the Church has been called. So what is it? Do you know? "To patiently endure suffering for doing what is right."
May we be encouraged for verse 21 tells us that there has been One Who has gone before us! Yeshua Messiah, our One Example! We will look into the word used in this text for "example", and the principle therein.

Part 2 (Conclusion) - Acts 10: Freedom To Eat Whatever We Want?

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
Next up we look at verses 17 through 28 of Act 10 where Peter makes it clear that his vision had nothing to do with animals but instead he stated "Yahweh has shown me not to call any *man* unholy and unclean."
When did Yahweh show Peter this? When he had the vision about unclean animals. So why have we been told this somehow meant we can eat whatever we want? We must study to show ourselves approved.

Part 1 - Acts 10: Freedom To Eat Whatever We Want?

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
In this part we primarily read and discuss Acts 10:1-17 and how Peter was perplexed. Why? Because he *knew* that what the voice of the LORD was speaking to him contradicted Yahweh's commands from Leviticus.
In his wrestling, understanding begins to come. We can learn from Peter's confusion an important principle: in the waiting we too must also rightly weigh what we hear versus what we know Yahweh has commanded, as we strive to understand "perplexing" things that come to us.

Part 7 (Conclusion)- When Men Changed Sabbath: Why the Church No Longer Honors the Biblical Holy Day

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
The series concludes here as we solidify that Yahweh's Seventh Day Sabbath was established at Creation. Therefore, there is no "Christian Sabbath" on Sunday.
In this teaching we begin to ask, who are we really? Are we grafted into Israel, Yahweh's People, or not? Are we a set apart People remembering and keeping a set apart day holy or are we simply following traditions of men? All people truly desiring to be pleasing in the eyes of the LORD *must* answer this question.

Part 6 - When Men Changed Sabbath: Why the Church No Longer Honors the Biblical Holy Day

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
The series is nearing a conclusion as this episode presents the greater introduction of more modern changes to/eradication of Seventh Day Sabbath, such as "Blue Laws" that demanded "true Christians" work on the seventh day and rest on Sunday (the "new LORD's Day").
We'll read MANY Scriptures in this episode specifically, in order to establish clearly that in order to be Yahweh's marked and holy People, we must not profane His Seventh-Day Holy Sabbath. Of course, we'll go on to biblically-define what it even means to "profane" something.

Part 5 - When Men Changed Sabbath: Why the Church No Longer Honors the Biblical Holy Day

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
The series continues examining why men took it upon themselves to literally change the biblical Seventh Day Sabbath. We continue through the timeline of history to see that men replaced Yahweh's set apart day and created a new "Christian Sabbath."
Do you know why YOU keep so-called "Sunday Sabbath" and that it is not keeping the "Sabbath of Yahweh" holy (Fourth Commandment)? Or perhaps, you're a "Sabbath rest" person and NO day is sacred and distinct from another. Is this biblical? Let's find out.

Part 4 - When Men Changed Sabbath: Why the Church No Longer Honors the Biblical Holy Day

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
This episode clarifies that what is being presented is NOT about "what day we should 'do church' on." In fact, the biblical, seventh day Sabbath is much greater than that.
What if we're missing Yahweh's blessing by abandoning *His* designated ways? Why Did Paul regularly go to the synagogue on Sabbath (as well as keep the Feasts of the LORD) AFTER Yeshua had ascended as the Acts Church was growing? Why is there NO mention whatsoever to a "changing" of the Sabbath day in Scripture?
Lastly, we begin to spell out the historical timeline of when men in self-appointed authority began to slowly institute a new "Christian Sabbath" on Sun-day, where it has continued all the way to this present hour.

Part 3 - When Men Changed Sabbath: Why the Church No Longer Honors the Biblical Holy Day

* This originally aired as a video episode on Youtube HERE.
This part presents some tough questions like "Why does the Christian church celebrate non-Biblical festivals/holidays like Christmas and Easter yet not keep the Fourth Commandment to 'remember the Sabbath Day and keep it holy'?"
We also begin to unveil *why* we've been taught that Sunday is "the new Christian Sabbath." Even though the first century Church (post-Yeshua/Acts 2 Pentecost) knew nothing of this doctrine, very few people ever ask. We are responsible to know.
