In the original languages of Hebrew and Greek, the meaning of the word ‘repentance’ is fundamentally the same: to turn around, or to turn back. Being a vital element of a relationship with the Creator, Elohim grants the gift of repentance to those He chooses. Within that gift of repentance is a sense of remorse and regret. When repentance is from a sincere heart, the relationship is restored.

Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches the deep and sometimes hidden meaning of repentance and all it involves.

The English noun gospel comes from the Anglo-Saxon term godspell, meaning "glad tidings." It is translated from the Greek evangelion, which means "good message." Originally, the word was related to news of military triumph. –https://www.gotquestions.org/gospel-good-news.html

While mainstream Christianity has a relatively narrow definition or view of the Good News, e.g., limited to the New Testament and only relating to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a broader, more scriptural perspective exists that is less taught, if taught at all.

Didn't the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and others preach good news? What was their good news about?

If the Good News is only about the death, burial, and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua, why did He teach and preach about it? What did He say is the Good News?

Is the Good News about the Messiah, or is it of the Messiah?

As is his usual practice, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a more profound understanding to this topic by allowing scripture to define itself just as he has done in his other teachings.

• Opener
• Review
• 1 Peter 4:1-2 – The solution for suffering
• Ceased from sin?
• 1 Peter 4:3-4 – Why don’t you live like the world?

• 1 Peter 4:5 – Those who are dead?
• 1 Peter 4:8 – A whole lotta love
• 1 Peter 4:9 – Grumbling
• 1 Peter 4:10 – Serve one another 
• This will keep you out of the Kingdom
• 1 Peter 4:11-12 – Fiery trials are to prove you 
• 1 Peter 4:13-14 – Rejoice as you share in the sufferings of Messiah 
• 1 Peter 4:17-18 – It’s time for judgment to begin 
• Final words
