Are They Laughing with Us or At Us?
I remember many years ago, when I was in fifth grade in elementary school, I thought of myself as a class clown, always telling jokes and acting up in class. One day, after I had been extra distracting, my teacher asked me to stay after class so she could talk to me. I thought she …

Messianic Rabbi: The Real Reason I Celebrate the Day of Trumpets
Every year at this time, a well-meaning Christian friend will ask me, “Why do you still celebrate the Feast of Trumpets?” I know that they are not saying this to be offensive, or to be attacking my faith. These friends know that I am a Messianic Jew and, as such, I believe that Yeshua is …

What is Keeping Believers from Seeing the Latter Rain?
Like most students of the Bible, I believe that we are in the last days. We only have to look around to see the prophetic events coming to pass before our eyes. There are many things which are prophesied to take place: wars, disease, famine, pestilence, earthquakes and tsunamis—and we are seeing all of these …

While recently speaking with some parents about education for their children, we began to discuss the three main options available today: homeschooling, private schooling and public schooling.

The Biblical Significance of the Redemption of Melchizedek
I know what I am writing today is controversial, and I want each reader to know that after you read this complete article, you still may not agree with me. But, I honestly hope that you will. The mysterious figure, Melchizedek (Malki-Tzedik in Hebrew), is mentioned in only three places in the entire Bible: in …

Miracles Are Just as Spectacular the Second Time Around
One of my favorite things to do is to sit quietly at an event like a wedding, an anniversary, or a graduation and listen to parents talking about their children—especially if the parents have more than one child. Inevitably, the conversations turn to a discussion about the difference between the first child and the child, …

Messianic Rabbi: You Are Not Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
Over the past few years, the body of Messiah has been under fierce attack by those who attempt to interpret the Bible through the lens of modern social sensibilities. Many of those who are promoting these unbiblical notions do so by twisting Scriptures and scriptural interpretations so that the Word of G-D appears to agree …

Your Choices That Will Amplify God’s Mercy and Power
In life, we have to come to decisions. Easy decisions and hard decisions. Easy decisions are easy. This is because easy decisions are usually things that are pleasant and things that are desires of our flesh. It is easy to decide to have a feast; it is hard to decide to have a fast. It’s …

We Must Welcome Those Who Are Transitioning into Our Congregations
Yes, the headline is click bait. Yes, I purposely chose those words to get your attention. Yes, I hope that you will still read further. One of my very favorite New Covenant verses is found in 1 Corinthians 6:11: “That is what some of you were—but you were washed, you were made holy, you were …

Prophets of Presumption Never Prosper
There are times when we are reading a very familiar text in the Bible, we find something in the text that, for some reason, we never saw before. Sometimes when this happens it’s because those particular words or phrases are dealing with a topic or subject that you have been studying or thinking about. In the …

Sometimes You Must Be Willing to Fail
Recently, I heard a sermon being shared and the speaker quoted a very familiar verse from Paul’s first letter to Timothy: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith” (2 Tim. 4:7). As I thought about Paul’s words to Timothy at the end of his life, my …

The Gospel According to Rocky Balboa: Are You Strong Enough to Get Back Up?
The Bible is filled with many verses that become very familiar to believers in Messiah. These verses can become our go-to verses whenever we have a need, be it spiritual or physical. Unfortunately, many of these verses are quoted completely out of the context in which they were first written. One of these familiar verses …

Believers Need to Reconstruct, Not Deconstruct Their Faith
Over the past few years, the body of believers has experienced a major attack from both within and without. We have lived in a type of crisis mode between the “False Political Prophets,” “False COVID Prophets,” “Fallen Mega Pastors,” “Financial Mismanagement,” “Sexual Abuse” and “Spiritual Abuse.” The news media have had a field day sensationalizing …

Messianic Rabbi: A Zeal for the Torah
In the book of John chapter 17, we read a beautiful prayer about unity that Yeshua prayed for all those who would follow Him. “I pray not on behalf of these only, but also for those who believe in Me through their message, that they all may be one. Just as You, Father, are in …
