Judeo-Christian Clarion — Teaching Moments

We are first introduced to Melchizedek in Genesis 14:18. Abraham’s nephew Lot was taken captive during a war amongst several kings. When receiving the news, Abraham and his men went to rescue Lot. “After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom came out to meet him in […]

We want to look at Timothy. Timothy had a Jewish mother and a Greek father. In families today, so many children have parents of different backgrounds.  The Apostle Paul loved Timothy whom he called his son. This is what discipleship is all about. So often today our children are not disciplined, there are, so many […]

Romans 10: 6-10 tells us, “But the righteousness based on faith speaks as follows: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will go up into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Messiah down),  or ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Messiah up from the dead).”  But what does it say? “The Word […]

The Bible speaks about the second coming of the Messiah in Revelation 19:11-16 .  It says this,  “And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.  His eyes are a flame of fire, and on […]

Hebrews 5:7-8 tells us this about Yeshua, “ In the days of His humanity, He offered up both prayers and pleas with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His devout behavior.  Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things […]

The heart is the center of us all. Scripture tells us this about the heart.  Proverbs 4:23, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” Proverbs 27:19, “As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.” And Jeremiah says this in  Jeremiah 17:9, “The heart is deceitful above […]

Psalm 84:12 says, “Lord Almighty,    blessed, is the one who trusts in You.” Did you ever have a friend that you could not trust? I would say that if you did, that he wasn’t really a friend. A friend is a friend because you can trust him.  Yeshua says this in John 15:15,  “No […]

1 Corinthians 2:15-16 tells us, “But the one who is spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is judged by no one.  For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of  Messiah.” The writer first asks the question, “Who has known the mind of […]
