WALSH: Satan’s Favorite Christians Are The Ones Who Deny That He Exists There is no better evidence of Satan’s existence than the fact that so many Christians in this country deny it. We are a culture where even those who believe in the saving power of Christ do not necessarily believe that we actually need to be saved from anything. This is the Devil’s handiwork. … Continue reading Satan’s Favorite Christians Are The Ones Who Deny That He Exists

We spend so much time focusing on ourselves and our shortcomings and wallowing in our self-doubt that we effectively remove ourselves from the fight. That is exactly what the enemy wants. Once you realize that Christ has completely eliminated the penalty for your sin and all you must do is believe then you are freed and empowered to help others. Those stuck in works-righteousness can never see … Continue reading THIS IS WAR
The Rapture: What is it? It is Jesus coming to claim His bride, the church, and bring her back to His place in heaven. Why does He do that? Because we are in a period of time called the church age or the age of Grace. It initially began with the resurrection of Christ, but “officially” began at Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was poured … Continue reading Rapture and Pre-tribulation Rapture Made Simple!
Vezot ha’Bracha “And this is the blessing” Deuteronomy 33:1-34:12 Joshua 1:1-18 The Baton Passes On This Shabbat’s readings mark the end of the Torah cycle.

We have another reader contribution to share with you. This one is from SilentKnight (thank you, brother!). I have to say that I find this Scripturally/exegetically convincing for a number of reasons, but time does not permit me to unpack that all myself. In short, I think that Isaiah 7:14, like Revelation 12:5, speaks both of Christ and His Church. Both are necessary parts in the fulfillment … Continue reading O Come, O Come, Emmanuel!
Yeshua’s disciples saw him undergo a metamorphosis before their eyes, but into what did he transfigure and what did it mean? As Yeshua prayed, “He was transfigured before them” (Mark 9:2). The Greek text of Matthew and Mark uses the word metamorfoo from which we derive the English word “metamorphosis.” A metamorphosis is the process of substantially changing (or transfiguring) from one physical state to another. In … Continue reading The Metamorphosis
Often, well-meaning, Israel-loving people will say to me, “I am Jewish now. I am grafted in.” I never, ever say anything close to, “No, you’re not Jewish.” I focus more on how grateful I am that they love God and pray for the Jewish people. However, it is interesting that the Church went from saying, “You can’t be Jewish and believe in Jesus,” to, “All … Continue reading Israel and the Nations: A Theological Opinion, Part 1

The theme of the High Holidays is teshuvah (בהּ ָתשו ,(ְּ ֹa word often translated as “repentance,” though it is more accurately understood as turning back (i.e., shuv) to God.

As a Messianic Jew I am not liked by anyone. My Jewish brothers and sisters tell me that because I believe “in Jesus” (almost none of them really understand what that means) I am no longer Jewish; on the other side, because I follow Torah (as best as I can) and maintain a “Jewish” worship and lifestyle, my brothers and sisters in Messiah tell me … Continue reading Faith vs. Legalism

SCIENTISTS have ‘confirmed’ the existence of God after proving a mathematician’s theory which suggests that there is a higher power.

Dr Gödel’s model uses mathematical equations that are extremely complicated, … Continue reading Scientists use mathematical calculations to PROVE the existence of God
