Renewing Our Minds
As new creations in Messiah, we are free to walk according to our new nature of righteousness. And as we do this, we lay down our old identity of sin, and we renew our minds concerning our new nature and who God says we are.
Hanukkah Overview
This teaching is part of our Distinctives Series and gives an overview of Hanukkah, the Feast of Dedication. As part of the rededication of the Temple, both then and now, “the people who know their God will display strength and take action.” – Daniel 11:32
The Bride of Noble Character
In both Sarah and Rebekah we find characteristics that demonstrate them to be women of noble character. And in Rebekah, as the chosen bride of the promised seed, we see a picture of what the bride of Messiah is to become as we are preparing for His coming.
Hope for the Promised Seed
After years of disappointment, Sarah received the promised son. After bringing up Isaac as an offering, Abraham received him back and opened the way for the promised seed to come in the person of Yeshua, who is our hope.
Testing of Abraham
God tested Abraham for his own benefit. By demonstrating his faith through his actions, he received greater reward and accomplished much for the Kingdom.
Clean Hands and a Pure Heart
Through Yeshua we are brought into the kingdom of priests. Having our hands cleansed and our hearts purified, we may draw near to God, being changed from glory to glory back into beings of light, as it was in the beginning.
Yeshua’s Birth at Sukkot
Many Messianic believers celebrate Yeshua’s birth at Sukkot. Find out what evidence there is for celebrating his birth at the Season of Our Joy!
Even In Exile, God Is With Us
God has promised never to leave or forsake His people, and that He will always be with them. Even when they are sent into exile, God goes with them, shares in their afflictions, and brings them back from their captivity. He is faithful.
Covenant: From Generation to Generation
The covenant God made with Israel and Judah is an everlasting national covenant, passing from generation to generation. Those who are in covenant with God have a responsibility and obligation to raise their children according to God’s ways and to walk in unity with their community.
The Light Overcomes the Darkness
In the beginning of creation, God sent forth His Light. When Adam sinned, the Light of creation was hidden, concealed temporarily, to be revealed in the Messianic Era. And at the fulness of time, God sent forth His Son, the Light of the World, to bring repentance and redemption.
