A Battle for Truth
Giants, kings of the past, and the “Book of YHWH’s Battles,” what possible relevance do they have on us today? We often gloss through the books of Torah and the Writings and are met with names and events that we can’t even recognize, let alone pronounce. Consequently, we give them little credit. But in the…
Who’s In Charge Anyway?
Are the kings of this earth a reflection of ourselves? Are “we the people” the ones being held accountable for current world events? We read in Daniel 2:21: “And it is He (YHWH) who changes the times and the epochs, He removes kings and establishes kings.” If this is true, then is there any reason…
Rebellion Reversed!
Torah Portion: Korach B’midbar (Num) 16:1 – 18:32 I Samuel 11:14 – 12:22 Romans 13:1–7 Redemption from Rebellion The good news for all rebels is that the mercy of YHWH triumphs over judgment (Jacob/ James 2:13) and reverses rebellion. We see this in the true humility and holiness of the offspring of Korah. They only…

Maybe even – stuck in the muck? How do we pull out and how do we keep from going back there? Before YHWH promises His people blessings andfruitfulness, that is,…

Conviction Anyone?
Conviction Anyone? (Bechukotai—“In My Statutes”) Are you tired of being sick and tired? Are you tired of fear and anxiety? There is an answer. It is found in the laws of YHWH. Some might think that the God of Torah or Law is a vengeful God who is constantly condemning His people. Whereas, Yeshua (Jesus) is…
What are Numbers Anyway?
Have you ever given thought to the “numbers” of Israel? Is it possible that we might have been viewing their numbers from a perspective that might be misunderstood? After reviewing some research, I’m starting to think so. It seems that whenever Yahweh wants to make a point among the nations, He works with small groups…
Standing Against Attack
What would you do if a dust throwing, coat tearing, violent crowd accused you falsely . . . calling for your death? Would you remain strong? How do we remain strong in YHWH? I believe our strength is found in knowing our identity.According to Scripture, we were made in the image of Yah. We are…
