Introduction Since I’ve come to believe and invest my life in Yahshua the Messiah, the promised One of Israel, I have progressively been concerned with the Gentile Churches lack of understanding, missed opportunities, and poverty of knowledge because of their reluctance to examine Jewish concepts extant at the time of Yahshua’s visitation. It is the… Read more »

The Seat of the Spirit and the Seat of the Soul
The False Face of Spirituality I want to take you on a journey to find, if possible, where the seat of the spirit and the seat of the soul reside. In many passages of Scripture there seems to be a blurring of the spirit and soul, yet in other Scriptures there seems to be a… Read more »
Binding and Loosing
Mat 18:18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. What does this mean bind and loose? Who is Yahshua addressing? To whom is He imparting this authority? How do Christian ministers teach this concept?… Read more »
An Exposition on Pertinent Passages of Amos
Amos means “burdenbearer.” He uses animals as metaphors of events that would come to pass in the “Day of the Lord.” The “day of the Lord” is the day of YHVH’s judgment upon mankind at the Great Tribulation.

If a pregnancy started on the first day of spring, March 21st it would end on December 25th. This is in my opinion… Read more »
RUACH HA KODESH
Introduction I want to posit a few questions to you below as we examine the Ruach Ha Kodesh. In most statements of Faith, the Ruach HaKodesh as one of the persons of the G-d head. What is a person? Philosophy says: “I perceive that I am, therefore I am. But what is true reality? Ultimate… Read more »
Yahshua the Rabbi
The study of the place of Yahshua in the history of human culture must begin with the New Testament, on which all subsequent representations have been based. But the presentation of Yahshua in the New Testament is itself, an interpreted representation by those that have an agenda to promote resembles a set of paintings more… Read more »
Have the Dietary Laws of God Been Abrogated?
Many Christian theologians and commentators have used the passage found in Acts 10: 9-16 as a basis to suspend the dietary laws of God. In this passage, we have Peter’s vision of unclean animals as reported by Luke. Acts 10: 9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the… Read more »
Kippa (skull cap) and Covering of Head-Male and Female
Recently, a friend gave me an article from a magazine called Patriarch published in September/October 1996. It was reprinted from an article previously appearing in the NT Restoration Newsletter. It was titled: The Head Covering God Gives every Woman. There are points I agree with and points I disagree with and partly because the author… Read more »
