Messages on Matthew (Page 5)
Sanctifying the New Moon
Proclaiming the Appointed Times at the time appointed for them is not as easy as it sounds! It’s a complex process and has been the subject of much debate.
Spiritual Cleansing
Cleansing one of spiritual contamination from evil speech involves more than just removal of the bad habit. One must also form good habits and speak words of life.
Preparing Our Holy Sanctuary
In Mark 7, Yeshua says what proceeds out of a man is what defiles him. Contrary to popular belief, Yeshua says nothing about what one eats, but only about what remains inside a person, which are matters of the heart.
The Journey from Passover to Shavuot
On the journey from Passover to Shavuot, we count the 50 days of the omer. In this time we reflect on our spiritual growth preparing ourselves so we will be found faithful at the return of Yeshua our Messiah!
The First Fruit of the Resurrection
Yeshua our Messiah is the first fruit offering presented in the heavenly Temple as the first fruit of the resurrection, providing the way for the coming harvest of souls at the end of this age!
Greater and Lesser Commandments
Yeshua demonstrates the method for determining what is a greater commandment and what is a lesser commandment in Matthew 12. Far from abolishing a commandment, He upholds all of the commandments and shows that compassion is foundational to Torah.
Taken Low to Go High
Joseph was brought low so that he might receive the promotion God intended for him – that he would be raised up as a savior for Israel.
The Sun Will Rise
Times may be difficult, and all around us there may be darkness, but to those who trust in the LORD, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And God will comfort His people.
The Gospel of the Kingdom
What is the gospel that Yeshua preached? Was it about going to heaven, or was it about heaven coming to earth?
Sowing Seeds of Faith
We have the choice to see things as people of faith or to look at our own insufficiency or fear. What we choose will determine the type of seed we sow and the fruit it will bear.
