There is no doubt that events are “accelerating” toward some sort of climax. And it’s happening on a number of fronts – economic, political, legal, and even international war.
Is “complete collapse” at hand? Or just inevitable, on at least one of those fronts?
Lots of things COULD happen. And we know what WILL happen. Just not necessarily when. But we can put all of that together.
And there are some very definite events and likelihoods that we need to understand.
News and commentary for Wednesday, 25 February, 2026.
The State of the Union may be better than it was, but the continuing attack is very obvious.
Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.
As he begins this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings out the big guns, challenging you to understand and take action on what you really struggle with – you.
• Why do you seem to struggle with your relationships and with yourself?
Rabbi Berkson takes us to Philippians 2 to unpack what the Apostle Paul wrote to the assembly in Philippi about how they should conduct themselves in his absence. Paul exhorts those in that assembly to take on the mind of Messiah Yeshua, considering others better than themselves in humility and with awareness of others’ needs.
• Are you aware that what you do at any given moment may create an adverse condition for somebody else?
• Are you giving to others and the Father the kind of attention necessary for a flourishing relationship?
• What is meant by “leadership serving” and “submissive serving”?
• What are the differences between unity, uniformity, and conforming?
• Did Messiah Yeshua or His Apostles ever make the message of the Kingdom “palatable” for their listeners?
• We all have our own emotional preferences, but when can those be a bad thing?
• Are you the kind of person Yahweh can ‘trust’ with forever?
• Is there grumbling, complaining, and disputing in the Body of Messiah?
Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

This week’s Torah portion from the annual cycle is a major ‘shift’ from the mainline story of the Exodus. After Moses heads up the mountain, for forty days and forty nights, the focus is now on getting ready to build something.
And why? Why now? It’s almost like He knows something, before we get to that part of the story. It turns out, there’s even more to it than that.
Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a provocative two-part look at parsha Terumah, Exodus chapter 25 through almost all of 27, which begins with the command from YHVH to “take for Me an OFFERING.” From a specific group of people, of a specific list of items, and for a specific purpose. The Erev Shabbat reading gives the details, of which there are many:
The impressive level of detail is this description is certainly one of the most memorable aspects of this parsha. It’s also at the heart of what might even be called ‘controversy.’ Why so much detail about a mobile tent in the wilderness? After all, it was later replaced by the temple, twice, and destroyed, twice. Some will again even claim that it’s “Old” testament, and therefore ‘done away with’ – like those temples. We may have even heard it called “boring.”
And yet, as Mark reminds us in the Sabbath day midrash, there is “no idle word” in His Torah.
The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:
(LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE MESSAGE HERE). Satan transforms himself into an angel of light? Did Paul mean this litterally or figuratively. What is Paul talking about here? 1 and 2 Corinthians are letters from Paul to the Church in Corinth. Sadly we only have one side of this conversation, but it is clear that Paul’s epistles address known issues within the churches they are written to. I don’t believe these 3 verses are aligorical or figurative in nature. I believe these verses may be quite literal including verse 14. with regard to Satan transforming himself into an angel of light. In today’s message I am going to give you evidence as to why I believe this is so and why Paul may have even been referring to teachers and “apostles” from or at least connected with the Qumran community as being false teachers and false apostles who were bringing a false message and a false messiah or false Jesus whom Paul (and the other true apostles) did not preach. Then toward the end of this message we will look at examples of where and why I believe this is happening again today especially (and quite sadly) among (SOME OF ) those describing themselves as Torah observant, Hebrew Roots, etc communities which are increasingly endorsing the teachings of the so-called obscure Essenes sect of Judaism and promoting extra biblical writings contained within the corpus of DSS attributed to them and the inhabitants of Qumran. Did the Essenes and/or the inhabitants of Qumran commune with and/or seek out conversations and wisdom from angels. Lets see what some of the extra biblical writings found in the dead sea scrolls say about this.
Host Mark Call takes a look back at some of the most important news, with no shortage of commentary, for the week ending 21 February, 2026.
And it’s time to admit that what we’re seeing isn’t just merely “Evil.” We’re way, way beyond that…
David Justice and Mark Call recap the major new events of the week, and some of the disappointing failures, and outright betrayals.
One of them begs the question, if the corrupt Brits can finally even arrest a Royal, why can’t the US manage to arrest at least a few outright traitors?
And if the US is willing to go to war in Iran halfway around the world, and risk a nuclear confrontation, to “overthrow the ayatollahs” — why can’t at least take down the ones running the swamp here?
