Judeo-Christian Clarion — Special Teachings

Paul is the number one person who people quote when talking about Christianity. This is likely due to the fact that nearly half of the New Testament is attributed to his authorship. Although this is the case, Paul is probably the most misunderstood figure in the Scriptures. Even his own contemporaries found his words sometimes difficult to understand (2 Peter 3:15-18). Today, in addition to this we have the obstacle of time which separates us from him. For this reason it is essential that we understand who Paul was so we can understand his teachings.

The Jerusalem council recorded in Acts 15 is a crucial moment in the history of Christianity. Unfortunately, this passage is generally misunderstood. Most people today believe the decision made here by the council declares that Gentiles should not follow the Torah. We are going to go through this chapter to find out if this is correct.

The main theme of Romans is the justification of sinners. Justification is the way in which God accepts a sinful human being and sets them in a place of right-standing through Yeshua. The relationship between justification, faith, and following the Torah (God’s commands) is sometimes misunderstood, so let’s look at Romans and see what Paul is really saying.

We, as believers in Yeshua (Jesus), have died to the Torah (Law, God’s commandments). This is the way Paul describes us as well as all of those who accept the sacrifice of Yeshua on their behalf. What has been a subject of confusion, however, is what exactly this means and what it looks like to effectively live our lives as dead to the Torah. In this brochure, we will examine the context surrounding Paul’s use of this phrase to get a good idea what it means and what its implications are for believers.

Some passages in the writings of Paul, such as Romans 14, have been largely used by some who say that these passages permit believers to violate the Biblical dietary laws and Sabbath. Many believe that these are now only matters of conscience and that we are free to either accept or reject them for our own lives, with the preference being toward rejection. We will take a deeper look at this chapter and a few other similar passages throughout Scripture to see if we can find out what Paul was actually saying.

As Paul spread the good news around the known world, he experienced the joy of fellowship as well as the bitterness of persecution. We can learn a lot about Paul by examining the stories surrounding his trials and his testimonies before the religious and secular ruling bodies, from Jerusalem to Rome.

In this article, we look at the holiday season and see how it is all connected and how we are to relate to it as believers in Messiah.

 Just as there is day so too, there is night, and just as there is light, there is also darkness.  We can also say as there is life, there is also death.  We find this is true of people. The Bible speaks to us about a falling away from the true Light, the Light of […]

Every year we celebrate Christmas and usually it is a very fun time of year, with food, gifts, parties, mistletoe, lights and I’m sure you could add a few other things to the list. We begin with Good Ole Saint Nick at the beginning of December and we end with Santa Clause, with Father Time […]

We are living in a time of great uncertainty. The world is at a crossroad.  The things of old have passed because in this new millennium, it seems that we have done away with the old, the traditions and the time tested truths. Today’s generation thinks in a totally different way. But the enemy of […]

This teaching is for those who truly want truth. Church History Over the centuries our faith has changed, the gospel message has changed and even our Scriptures have changed and yet God never changes, He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. So why do we think that we must change God or His Word? […]

This teaching is for those who truly want truth. One Word Can Make The Difference I said all of this to bring us to today.  We know that Martin Luther, when he translated his version of the Bible, added the word alone to read, we are saved by grace alone. Here is one of his […]

The Scriptures tell us that the truth will set us free and yet, sometimes we really do not want to hear the truth. You yourself will have to decide if you really want the truth by reading this to the end. Today there is a group that is well, can I say, ultra Christian. We […]

This teaching explains the origins of Secular Humanism and its future as the religion of Babylon the Great.

So what is a Reich? Let’s take some time to see who and what makes up the Reich.  The German name Reich means “realm” when used as a noun, or literally the realm of an emperor or king in reference to an empire or kingdom. The term Deutsches Reich (sometimes translated to “German Empire”) continued […]

In this teaching we want to address “social justice.” Micah 6:8 tells us, “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” We see that God wants us to do justice, but is that the same as “social justice” that we hear about today?

Today our colleges and universities have drifted away from any kind of standard that may have applied in the past, but one thing has not changed and that is fraternities and sororities.  We look upon these organizations as something to be elevated in academia and the workplace. If you have the Greek letters added to […]

Many people do not know about spiritual warfare, or they do not know how to engage in spiritual warfare. Yet, it is very important that we do understand it. Yeshua has given those who believe in Him the victory over the enemy if we are willing to stand up and fight. This teaching will be a template you can use as a prayer guide in your own spiritual warfare.

Today the world has become so uncertain. We have no idea what tomorrow will bring. Fear has gripped our souls. Well, we are not alone, for even the disciples of Yeshua felt that way. Let’s take a closer look at this story.

Today is New Years Eve and I would like to give a few thoughts about this past year, and I would like to speak a few words about our new incoming year. As we all know, this has been quite the year. There is no need to go into every detail because we all have […]
