Yahshua’s return isn’t a secret rapture escape. Like Noah, the righteous are protected while the wicked are “taken” in judgment. “Where the carcass is, vultures gather” points to destruction, not rescue. The wicked are removed first; the faithful remain for Messiah’s Kingdom on earth.  Read More

The article urges believers not to fear discussing the spirit realm: it’s real, includes angels and demons, and our battle is spiritual. Satan deceives through temptation, occult practices, drugs, lust, and corrupted thinking. Distinguish possession from deception, guard the mind, avoid openings to evil, and rely on Yahweh’s protection through obedience and prayer.  Read More

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

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

This article argues the Apocrypha is uninspired “imitation Bible”: written between the Testaments, rejected by Jews and Josephus, never quoted in the New Testament, and filled with historical, chronological, and doctrinal errors. It traces later forged “gospels” and concludes only the traditional Hebrew/Greek canon is truly Yahweh-inspired.  Read More

This article traces how ancient Gnosticism—self-exalting, anti-law, and hostile to Yahweh—mixed with early Christianity and still shapes modern church doctrines (grace vs. law, immortal soul, universal salvation, trinity, Marian veneration, New Age ideas). It calls believers to reject these paganized teachings and return to pure, obedient worship of Yahweh.  Read More

This article argues that male head coverings in worship (like the Jewish yarmulke) are post-biblical traditions, borrowed from Rome and later mandated by rabbis. OT headgear was for priests or mourning, not general worship, and 1 Corinthians 11 clearly teaches men should be bareheaded while women cover.  Read More

“Born again” is not a one-time prayer but a lifelong process. It begins with repentance, baptism (water) and receiving the Spirit (earnest/down payment), then a life of overcoming trials and sin. Only at the resurrection are believers changed into immortal spirit beings—then they are truly “born again,” like Yahshua was.  Read More

The article argues that a Hebrew Messiah shouldn’t bear a Greek/Latinized name like “Jesus Christ.” As a Jew, He spoke Hebrew, taught from Hebrew Scriptures, and came “in His Father’s Name,” so His true name is “Yahshua” (“Yah’s salvation”), sharing the divine element “Yah” with Yahweh.  Read More

Western Christianity reads Scripture through Greek-Roman lenses, severing it from its Hebrew roots. Early church anti-Judaism replaced Sabbath, Passover, Feasts and law with Sunday, Easter, pagan holidays and “grace alone.” Yet Scripture and prophecy still affirm Sabbath, Feasts, and Torah. Gentiles join Israel’s covenant by being grafted in through obedience.  Read More

Yahweh expects precise, wholehearted obedience, not lukewarm compromise. Scripture must be personally studied and “rightly divided,” not filtered through tradition or careless clergy. There’s only one true path: diligent, detailed faithfulness rooted in the whole Word—especially the Old Testament—rather than easy, half-committed modern worship.  Read More

The article exposes how Reformation and modern churches replaced biblical obedience with man-made doctrines like “faith alone,” eternal security, and cheap grace. It urges believers to test all teachings by Scripture, reject Catholic and Protestant errors, and return to repentance, law-keeping, and genuine transformation as Yahweh demands.  Read More

This article critiques popular Christian clichés that promote passivity, emotionalism, and no-law theology. It contrasts them with Scripture’s call to repentance, obedience, endurance, and active overcoming. True love, grace, and “relationship” with Yahshua are proven by keeping His commandments, not by feel-good jargon that dodges responsibility.  Read More

Most people accept inherited religious traditions without proving them. Scripture commands us to “prove all things,” using the whole Bible—not church councils or majority opinion—as the standard. The early Nazarene believers followed “the Way,” keeping Torah and Yahshua’s teachings together; rejecting that Hebraic foundation leads to destructive ignorance.  Read More

This article argues that biblical months and Feasts are set by visible crescent moons, not the dark conjunction. Genesis 1’s “lights” require visible light, and Deuteronomy 16:1’s “observe” means to watch. Historical Jewish practice (Philo, Mishnah, Gamaliel) confirms sighted crescents; mathematical dark-moon calculation and Hillel II’s reforms are later human additions.  Read More

The piece criticizes modern “church” culture as tradition-bound, passive, and law-rejecting, contrasting it with Yahshua’s active, obedient, Torah-based teaching. It argues that stained-glass religion and “faith alone” preaching blind people to biblical commands, urging readers to see Scripture directly instead of through comforting but deceptive church traditions.  Read More

Part 2 surveys different angelic ranks (from Jewish tradition and Scripture), then focuses on biblical beings: Satan as a fallen cherub, Michael the warrior archangel, Gabriel the messenger, cherubim, seraphim, and ophanim, climaxing with Ezekiel’s and Revelation’s visions of Yahweh’s fiery, thunder-filled throne room and its astonishing angelic attendants.  Read More

Angels are created spirit beings, made through Yahshua before the earth. They often appear human, can interact physically, yet are immortal (though destroyable) and limited in knowledge. Scripture forbids worshiping them. Their main roles are Yahweh’s messengers, protectors (as with Elisha), and likely personal guardians for believers and children.  Read More

Scripture teaches humans are souls (nephesh/psuche) that die, not immortal spirits that fly to heaven. Death is “sleep” until the resurrection at Yahshua’s return, when the dead are raised from the earth, not called down from heaven. Only Yahweh inherently has immortality; He grants it later, not at death.  Read More
