We use an arctic-training analogy to argue the Old Testament is Yahweh’s “manual” for believers today, not obsolete. Claims Yahshua fulfilled by obeying and confirming the Law (Matt. 5:17) and taught obedience. Says Paul upheld “law and prophets” (Acts 24:14; Rom. 3:31). Gentiles are grafted into Israel’s covenant, now administered through Yahshua’s priesthood.  Read More

Review argues “Law of Moses” includes Ten Commandments, Feasts, statutes, and judgments—Moses was Yahweh’s conduit. Feasts aren’t abolished with sacrifices; only priesthood/sacrifice administration changed in Messiah. Col. 2/Eph. 2 address man-made dogma/partition, not Yahweh’s calendar. Feasts kept by Yahshua/Paul and prophesied for the Kingdom.  Read More

Paul’s point in Colossians 2:14 isn’t that Yahweh’s moral law was “nailed to the tree,” but that the record of debt/charges against us—our transgressions and man-made decrees tied to the old, fleshly system—was canceled through Messiah’s sacrifice. He warns against being judged by pagan/philosophical “ordinances,” not against obeying Yahweh.  Read More

Seven structures Yahweh’s “Sabbath system”: weekly Sabbath, 7-year land Sabbatical, and 50th-year Jubilee. Sabbaticals rest land, forgive debts, and teach dependence on Yahweh; Jubilees add freeing Israelite slaves and returning land to original families, proclaimed by shofar on Atonement. These cycles foreshadow restoration, liberty, and Yahweh’s ownership.  Read More

Yahshua’s return follows end-time upheavals (persecution, two witnesses, global deception, cosmic signs). The article argues His Second Coming likely coincides with a Sabbatical or Jubilee year: both involve trumpet announcement, rest, release from bondage, debt/penalty cancellation, family reunion, and land returning to its rightful Owner—Yahweh reclaiming earth’s rule.  Read More

The article argues that Old Testament Law remains binding for believers. Citing Revelation, Paul, Yahshua, and John, it claims the New Testament upholds obedience to Yahweh’s commandments. Faith does not nullify the Law; rather, loving Yahweh means keeping His commandments, which are essential for salvation.  Read More

This article by Randy Folliard teaches that love is the foundation of true obedience to Yahweh. It emphasizes loving Yahweh and neighbor (Matthew 22), highlights love’s qualities in 1 Corinthians 13, warns against loving the world (1 John 2), and affirms that keeping Yahweh’s commandments expresses genuine love.  Read More

The article argues that humans lack innate immortality, must obey Yahweh’s unchanging law, and cannot rely on faith alone. It rejects the immortal soul doctrine as rooted in Gnosticism and teaches that eternal life is conditional upon repentance, obedience, and alignment with Yahweh’s spiritual law.  Read More

The article explains that Acts 15 addressed whether Gentile converts must be physically circumcised. The apostles ruled that circumcision and sacrifices were not required, but converts must immediately abandon key pagan practices. They would then learn the rest of Yahweh’s law through Sabbath teaching. True circumcision is of the heart—faith expressed through obedient love.  Read More

The article argues that grace never replaced Yahweh’s law; both operate together throughout Scripture. Grace existed in the Old Testament alongside obedience, as seen with Noah, Abraham, and Israel. Paul and Yahshua upheld the law under grace. Faith, mercy, and obedience harmonize, and suffering results from sin—not from a lack of Yahweh’s mercy.  Read More

The article argues that some follow Jewish traditions while neglecting Yahweh’s commanded Holy Days, while others wrongly dismiss obedience by citing the “613 laws.” It explains many laws were governmental or priestly and not universally applicable today. Moral and spiritual laws remain binding. Yahshua upheld obedience, and true believers keep Yahweh’s commandments with faith in Him.  Read More

The passage teaches that the greatest commandments are to love Yahweh wholeheartedly and love others as ourselves. Obedience proves our love for Him. Yahshua upheld the Law, taught love for neighbors and enemies, and demonstrated ultimate love through His sacrifice. Believers must remain faithful, reflect Yahweh’s love, and prepare for His Kingdom.  Read More

The article argues that myths and Greco-Roman influence have distorted biblical truth. It claims the Bible—both Old and New Testaments—is fundamentally Hebraic, that the New Testament was originally written in Hebrew, and that Yahshua and Paul upheld Old Testament law, showing continuity rather than separation between the testaments.  Read More
