Do Not Follow the Masses in Doing Evil
How this commandment is tied to the crucifixion of the Messiah, the problems in our society today, and the end of days.
Messianic Torah Portion Mishpatim (Laws)
This is the section of Torah after the Ten Commandment but before the golden calf incident. The laws given to Moses are very fair and this shows the original intent was not to have a Levitical priesthood but for each man to be able to commune with YHVH himself through the altars of stone. Within this section, though, are specific commands that Sanhedrin broke in order to kill the Messiah. Most noteworthy were to give credence to false witnesses and to follow the masses in doing evil.
There have been some significant developments with the world’s economy in recent years that shows us who the Babylon from Revelation may be. This video also includes a lesson on when to take the bible literally and when to not.
Messianic Torah Portion Yitro (Jethro)
This portion includes Moses being reunited with is first wife and children through his father-in-law Jethro. Moses greets Jethro by bowing, shachah in Hebrew, proskuneo in Greek, which shows that we cannot use this action to determine who God is without specific context. Moses listens to Jethro and establishes a tiered leadership infrastructure just before the people get the Ten Commandments. Loving God is equated with keeping His commandments, which we strive to do. We also delve into the New Testament context and applications of the Ten Commandments showing that the Torah continues to be valid and in force until the end of days.
When and How to Interpret Scripture
The bible is written in a style that us westerners aren’t familiar with. By learning a couple things about how scripture was written and expected to be received, we can glean a lot more truth even in our native languages. This message touches on the way first century believers would have interpreted the Old Testament and subsequently wrote the New. These tips will help you understand the scriptures closer to their original intent, when things are supposed to be taken literally, and when they aren’t. These are very big helps when trying to understand prophecy and the Apostle Paul.

These things take time. My testimony. 3-4 years of unraveling stuff.
Videos make it much more difficult today. Very hard to tell the wheat from the chaffe.
Read the whole bible first. Then set boundaries for what you will study. If it goes against the fundamentals, it’s probably not worth your time. If it becomes ridiculous when taken to it’s logical conclusion, it’s probably not worth your time. You need a mechanism to quickly differentiate falsehood from something to be considered.
Paul, being as educated as a man could be on the Torah in his day, had to go away for three years to relearn. This is seldom mentioned.
Today, we learn something new and immediately broadcast it. Technology doesn’t discriminate between someone who’s off their rocker and sound teaching. In fact, it often puts the most outrageous stuff at the top of the queue because that’s what gets the most clicks and eyeballs. Sound teaching is boring.
The Sabbath is most often the truth that gets people into this walk. Genesis 1 defines a day as an evening and a morning. Sunday is never defined like that. Those who keep Sunday holy don’t know which hours to keep holy.
Genesis 1
Creation started in darkness then there was light. Once that first light faded into darkness the first time, God called it a day. Yom achad. An evening and a morning, one day. This is the end of that discussion. That’s the definition of a day right in the first part of the bible. Later on, the bible authors use common parlance when talking about time, just like we do today. Those things can get confusing if you try to define a day from later scripture. Knowing where key things are defined is foundational to your study.
The Sabbath was sanctified at the end of creation. When Jesus says later that the Sabbath was made for man, the Greek word was anthropos – mankind. It’s a double entendre because anthropos is the same Greek word use for adam here Genesis 1:26. Show that. So the Sabbath was made for Adam the man but that also meant for all of mankind from the start.
Keeping the Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset connects us to the first Sabbath of creation. It shows our fidelity to the Creator of the universe. In fact, the commandment says that’s a reason for keeping it.
Exodus 20: 8-11 For in six days YHVH made the heavens and the earth and then rested on the seventh.
This right here, the fourth commandment, is what very often brings people into the light. And it’s shocking information because it’s right here, plain as day. Christianity used to put a ton of focus on the Ten Commandments, rightfully so. But when it comes down to it, they only honor 9. Why is that? Do they have the authority to correct God? No, no they don’t.
This information leads us to question all of mainstream Christianity. If the pastors, priests, ministers, and professors can be convinced this commandment is no longer relevant or has changed, what else is wrong? This is where it becomes crucial to read your bibles and go directly to the source. The Spirit will lead you into all truth, so read with an open mind. Some hints: the chapters and verse aren’t really there. Ignore them if you can. The original books were not written with those aids. They were added, shockingly, about 1200-1300 AD. Yes, a thousand years after the close of scripture.
Acts 17: 10-12 Study to show yourself approved. Back then, the bibles were almost exclusively at the synagogues. This goes hand in hand with acts 15, which shows the Moses is read in the synagogues every Sabbath. The first century believers, both Jew and Greek, kept the Sabbath. It makes sense as that is all of mankind, right? And they tested what Paul taught against the scriptures. We need to do that to!

The One Word the “Torah” Teachers won’t Teach
What the Torah Teachers won’t Teach
James 3:1-5
The responsibility when a man thinks he knows the bible enough to start talking about it is enormous. We most often invoke this passage when speaking about bad teaching, but there’s another type of bad teaching that needs to be addressed today – omission.
Lots of folks sound like me but I’m afraid once we peel back the layers, we find they are still in that Babylonia system, especially when it comes to the identity of the Son of God. When people get into this walk, we often spend a TON of time learning about the Names Yahweh and Yeshua. However, the word we need to clearly define is neither of those. The word we need to define is Christ.
Matthew 16:16
Christ is not a last name. Yes, I’m afraid most of the world thinks His first Name is Jesus and His last name is Christ. Not the case, Christ is a title, not a name, and one that has a specific definition.
Part of the definition is right here in front of us. Son of God. And Yeshua blesses Peter for this being revealed to him by Yeshua’s Father, who is a completely different being that was in heaven at that moment in time while His Son was on earth.
The teachers never teach this one. They love to talk about calendars, ancient alphabets, pronunciations, or impossible to reconcile doctrines, but this right here is salvation.
1 John 5: 11-12
If you have the Son, you have life. If you do not, you don’t. You can have the Father and deny the Son, by the way. And you can deny the Son by making Him out to be His own Father or making Him out to not be who He really is, the Son of God who is subordinate to His Father, who He Himself identifies as God.
From Matthew, we know the Christ is synonymous with the Son of God. Is there anything more to that definition? Yes, look at Matthew again and scroll through the definitions.
Anointed. That means somebody else anointed Him. Anointing is a calling, or an appointing, for a mission, specifically by Yahweh. Yeshua is not the only person to have this title, however He is THE Messiah while the others were just “a” Messiah.
The word Christ is not a random word. In Greek, it means to put oil on something. It was chosen as the direct translation for the word Messiah in Hebrew. Understand, there is nothing pagan about this word and it was chosen to be used for Messiah when the LXX was made – 150 years before Yeshua.
Switch to Brenton, search Christ, find Psalm 2, read, then switch to NASB95. Explain the word Messiah or Christ should be there, as well as other places. I don’t know why the English translators never do this.
Make it clear there is YHVH and there is His Anointed. It’s two. Not some incomprehensible amalgamation. Not a mystery. Yahweh anointed Yeshua to be His servant. Down to verse 7 and we see this Anointed one is Yahweh’s Son. He’s not another Yahweh, but the Son of God. I am not making it up, folks, but this is the stuff your “Torah teacher” won’t touch because they are terrified to teach you the truth and break with Trinitarianism. They need to realize they were not given the gift of speech so they can teach secondary and tertiary things.
Acts 2: 22-24 this is why it’s so important. God really did send His Son. His Son really did die. And God resurrected Him. These are not my words, friends. I have to tell you the truth lest I suffer judgment.
Acts 2: 32-26 God made Him the Messiah. Again, not my words. These are Peter’s words given to him by the Ruach ha Kodesh, the Holy Spirit.
Acts 3: 13-15 Again, testifying that God raised Yeshua.
Acts 4: 8-12 Finish here. Peter and John called as two witnesses to testify in front of the Sanhedrin. They said what they said. This is the Gospel. The most important information mankind can know, that God sent His Son, the Messiah, to pay the price for our sins. Do you accept Yeshua as the Messiah, the Son of God?
Messianic Torah Portion Vaera (I appeared) chronicles the beginning of the Exodus. In our study, we parallel the plagues of Exodus with those in Revelation 6 and contrast the purposes of each set of plagues.
