Faith vs Works: Resurrection, Judgment, and What the Bible Really Teaches

Are believers judged by works, or by faith alone?
What does the Bible actually teach about resurrection, judgment, and obedience?

In this in‑depth Bible teaching, we examine faith, works, and judgment using Scripture from John, Matthew, Romans, Isaiah, Psalms, Luke, 1 Peter, and the Torah. The teaching explains the difference between the resurrection of life and the resurrection of judgment, and why Scripture consistently teaches that works matter as evidence of genuine faith.

This study challenges modern interpretations of “faith alone,” explains why Paul is not a new Moses, and shows how first‑century believers demonstrated faith through obedience and righteous deeds. It also explores early church history, the separation from synagogue worship, and how creeds replaced lived, biblical faith.

This is not a works‑based salvation message. Salvation is by faith — but biblical faith produces action, and judgment is rendered according to deeds, as taught throughout the whole Bible.

Repentance & Teshuva: Understanding Biblical Repentance Through Torah and Yeshua

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.

Why We Avoid Pagan Symbols in Worship

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.

The Sabbath is for all Mankind

The Sabbath is for all mankind. The Sabbath was created on the 7th day of creation, kept by all the apostles and early Christians, and will be kept in the future under penalty of death. YHVH aka God rested on the 7th day of creation as an example for mankind the same way that Yeshua aka Jesus was baptized. God was not tired and did not need rest after creating the world, He rested with Adam as an example. Yeshua was sinless and did not need to be baptized, He did that to be an example as well. The first century believers would never have considered changing the Sabbath or stopping it because that was the principle means they identified as worshipers of the one true God. This has never changed and this message proves from scripture that the Sabbath is not just for Christians and Jews, but for all mankind.

We’re Adopted, Now What?

We’re adopted, now what? It’s decision time, brothers and sisters, either decide to be a Christian and follow Him fully or don’t. After accepting Yeshua as the Messiah (Jesus as the Christ) and becoming an adopted child of God, then what? This message addresses what the first century gentiles had to do to change how they were living and become children of God. I then parallel that to today, which is shockingly similar. This message proves that the rituals in mainstream Christianity, the things believers are required to do to be considered believers, are actually from paganism and the same exact religions Paul and the other apostles were sent into the world to counter. It’s decision time, brothers and sisters, either decide to be a Christian and follow Him fully or don’t.

The Day of Atonement

The Day of Atonement, also known as Yom Kippur, continued to be kept by the Apostles until after the close of scripture. It was expected for all who accepted Yeshua as the Messiah, Jesus as the Christ if you prefer, to keep the fast until His return. This message explains Yom Kippur in a New Testament context complete with some prophetic significance.
