n this in‑depth Bible sermon, Corky Wilson teaches from Romans chapter 1, explaining how the righteousness of God is revealed through the gospel of Christ. This message explores salvation by faith, the Hebrew understanding of righteousness (tzadik), the Septuagint, and how God’s righteousness is connected to covenant, obedience, and judgment.
Drawing from Romans, Psalms, Isaiah, Habakkuk, Galatians, and 2 Corinthians, this sermon challenges modern misunderstandings of God’s love by presenting a biblical view of holiness, faith, and accountability. A serious and thought‑provoking teaching on living by faith and honoring God’s truth in every generation.
How did the apostle Paul preach Jesus (Yeshua) as the Messiah to Gentiles who had no knowledge of the Torah or the prophets?
In this in‑depth Bible teaching, we explore how the Messiah is revealed throughout the Old Testament, long before the New Testament existed. Paul and the apostles proclaimed the gospel using Genesis, the Psalms, Deuteronomy, and the Prophets, proving that Yeshua is God’s anointed servant‑king promised from the beginning.
This teaching covers:
Why first‑century Gentiles did not understand the concept of a Messiah
How Paul preached the gospel without a New Testament
The true biblical meaning of Messiah (Mashiach) and Christ (Christos)
Why Scripture repeatedly refers to God’s “anointed one”
How Moses, David, Saul, and the prophets foreshadowed the ultimate Messiah
The relationship between Yahweh, the Messiah, and divine authority
Why repentance and accepting the Messiah cannot be separated
Why you cannot fully understand Jesus without the Old Testament
This message restores the Hebrew foundation of faith and demonstrates that the Messiah is not hidden in Scripture—He is revealed everywhere once you know how to read the Bible as one unified story.
If you have ever wondered whether you can truly preach Jesus from the Torah, this teaching provides a clear, scriptural answer.
Repentance & Teshuva: Understanding Biblical Repentance Through Torah and Yeshua
Repentance—teshuva—is one of the most foundational yet misunderstood teachings in Scripture. This post explores the true biblical meaning of repentance as revealed through the Torah, the Prophets, the writings of the apostles, and the life and resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah.
Drawing from passages such as Acts 2, Romans 1, 1 John 3, and Hebrews 4, this teaching breaks down repentance as more than a feeling of regret. It is a turning around, a returning to YHVH, and a realignment of our lives with His Torah and His ways. The Hebrew and Greek words—metanoeō, epistrephō, shub, nacham—all reveal dimensions of change, transformation, and returning to the path of righteousness.
Key themes explored in this teaching include:
The call to repentance given by Peter after Yeshua’s resurrection
How sin is defined in Scripture as lawlessness—a breaking of Torah
Why the more we understand, the more accountable we become
How repentance is both confession and active change
The connection between repentance and baptism
The role of Yeshua’s sacrifice in restoring us to God
The deep meaning of examining ourselves before Passover
The ongoing need to turn toward God and away from sin
This post also looks at the historical and cultural context of the crucifixion, the spiritual implications of rejecting God’s righteousness, and the hope offered through the Holy Spirit.
Whether you’re exploring repentance & teshuva for the first time or strengthening your walk in Torah and Messiah, this in‑depth study will equip you with a clearer, richer understanding of biblical teshuva and the life‑changing power of returning to YHVH with your whole heart.

The Bible reveals a pattern of cycles—weekly, yearly, seven‑year, and fifty‑year rhythms designed to shape a balanced, meaningful, and spiritually grounded life. When we embrace Yahweh’s Holy Days, we step into these divine seasons of repentance, celebration, rest, and renewal.
This teaching explores how biblical cycles help us navigate prosperity and hardship, joy and sorrow, birth and loss, and the natural ebb and flow of a redeemed life. Many believers who leave the mainstream Sunday system discover that much of what they were taught doesn’t align with Scripture. But rather than staying focused on what we’ve rejected, Scripture invites us to “flip the script” and live out Yahweh’s appointed times with joy and confidence.
The return of the Messiah is not a moment of fear for those walking in covenant—it is a day of celebration. This message encourages you to embrace Yahweh’s seasons, live with purpose, and walk in the hope and redemption found in Yeshua.

The Messiah Confrontation: Why Israel Knohl Says the Pharisees Wouldn’t Have Executed Yeshua
In this video, I review Professor Israel Knohl’s groundbreaking book The Messiah Confrontation, a work I first discovered through the excellent Kedem YouTube channel. Knohl argues that Yeshua’s execution was not the result of Pharisaic hostility—since the Pharisees, the ancestors of Rabbinic Judaism, would not have condemned Him—but rather the outcome of a trial dominated by Sadducees, a sect that no longer exists. Knohl laments that centuries of Christian–Jewish tension have been fueled by blaming “the Jews,” even though the group responsible disappeared long ago.
From a Christian perspective, I highlight an important point: if Yeshua is the Messiah, then His innocent death was necessary to fulfill prophecy. Without His death and resurrection, there is no Messiah and nothing for the crowds in Acts 2 to repent of. Antisemitism, which long predates Yeshua’s crucifixion, stems from ancient hatred of the children of Abraham—not from the gospel story itself.
Knohl devotes most of the book to tracing the development of messianic expectation in the Tanakh, the Qumran texts, and first‑century Judaism. He explains why many Jews expected a warrior‑king who would overthrow Rome, and why Yeshua’s message challenged those assumptions. While I disagree with Knohl’s rejection of Yeshua as the Messiah, his scholarship is honest, rigorous, and fair toward both Jewish and Christian traditions.
I recommend this book to anyone who loves deep, academic study of Scripture and the history of God’s people. Knohl’s treatment of messianic divinity alone is worth the read. My one critique is that he does not address Daniel 9, where the Messiah is linked to the destruction of Judea—something Yeshua explicitly referenced when He foretold the fall of the Temple.
If you enjoy serious biblical scholarship, this book is a treasure. I’ve also linked Knohl’s interview on the Kedem channel so you can explore his ideas firsthand. Shalom, and may YHVH bless you and keep you in the Name of Yeshua.

The Second Commandment forbids creating or worshiping images used as idols or tied to pagan religious practices, but it does not prohibit all artwork. Scripture allows decorative imagery—such as pomegranates, cherubim, and the bronze serpent—while commanding physical reminders like mezuzot and tzitziyot. The biblical standard is clear: remove idols, reject pagan symbols, and use only the reminders God instructs for obedience.
Why People Keep Following False Prophets: A Biblical and Historical Breakdown
Understanding when to listen to people—and when to stop—is a biblical command, not a personality trait. This teaching walks through the ancient hierarchy of prophets, teachers, and Scripture, and compares it to the modern world where everyone has access to a Bible but few actually know it.
We explore how Torah, the Prophets, Yeshua, and the Apostles gave clear tests for identifying true prophets and rejecting false teachers, even when their predictions come true.
