The video above is from a very talented singer/songwriter, Sarah Sparks. Based on some of her other work (and the poinsettias in the background of the video) she considers this a “Christmas” song, and is not aware that the theme’s resonate perfectly with Yom Teruah! To me, that… Read More »The Perfect Yom Teruah Song!
Apparently, I’ll never get over the ignorance of how Christianity (practically every denomination) casually declares the Seventh Day Sabbath to have been replaced by “The Lord’s Day” of Sunday. The key evidences they often site are Messiah’s rising on Easter Sunday, and the Holy Spirit’s coming on Pentecost… Read More »Tzit-Tziot and the Seventh Day Sabbath
Yesterday we witnessed Israel, collectively and for the first time since creation, suddenly become perfect. They have agreed to the Holy Covenant and thus far have not transgressed those laws.

As I commanded you, you shall eat unleavened bread… Read More »The Three Pilgrimage Feasts
The laws about slavery in scripture can be the easiest to criticize for both believers and non-believers. Everyone wishes there was a command that said, “Thou shalt not ever enslave anyone under any circumstances”. The reality is this: spiritually speaking, we belong to whoever we serve. We either… Read More »The Laws of Biblical Slavery Still Apply
