Messianic Torah Observant Israel

AFTERBURN:
Some of the topics covered are:
• Being a copy of an imperfect copy – Discipleship…
• Does the word ‘greater’ in John 14:28 simply mean ‘older’?
• Would a notable increase in peace be an indicator of us being in right-relationship with the Father?
• Who is the “ruler of this world” in John 14:30?
• Am I cold-hearted?
• How can people who suffer with extreme physical pain on a daily basis have peace/shalom?
• Can someone with PTSD or Bipolar disorder achieve the level of peace that the scriptures talk about?
• To what extent should we prepare for a disaster like the Corona virus (COVID-19), or should we just live as usual with shalom/peace?

… and much more!

Afterburn: also known in the world of fitness as the “afterburn effect”, simply put; The more intense the exercise, the more oxygen your body consumes afterward.

The same could be true as you build up your spiritual self. After an intense teaching session, you need answers as more thoughts and questions consume you in your spiritual growth.

Rabbi Steve Berkson, director of MTOI, provides an opportunity for the Afterburn to take place by additional thoughts and insight about what he just taught as well as answering questions from the local congregation and those watching the live stream.

If you walk out Torah on some level, but still are afraid, if you panic or have anxiety, if you still worry or are depressed (not clinically), there’s something missing in your walk…what is it? Rabbi Steve Berkson brings into the spotlight how throughout our Bible we are encouraged to have peace. But how? Why do some of us find ourselves lacking peace?

In John 14:27 Yeshua makes a statement of encouragement in where He’s says, “My peace I give you…” and “I do not give to you as the world gives.” How does He give His peace and how do we receive His peace? What does it mean to “stay in Me”?

The phrase “peace from Elohim”, “peace from the Father”, or “peace in Messiah Yeshua”, shows up nineteen times in the Brit Hadasha. Rabbi Berkson wants to address the questions, how do we get it, what prevents us from having it, what disturbs it, and how do we lose our peace?

“What has been resolved has to be released.” In this the final episode of Forgiveness, Resolution, Reconciliation & Restoration, Rabbi Steve Berkson gives a more detailed review of everything that’s been taught up to this point. He then moves into consequences incurred and consequences removed.

What’s the beauty of our relationship with our Creator? Rabbi Berkson takes us to 2 Chronicles 7:13-14 to find out. There we find the very well-known verse that starts with, “If my people who are called by my name…” In this passage we see all the processes of forgiveness, resolution, reconciliation and restoration.

Does forgiveness necessarily remove consequences? What is it that the Creator is wanting from us as He forgives us? Who does he do all this for?

Why should you be Torah-Observant? Because the path, the instructions for coming into right relationship with your Creator was given to Moshe (Moses), as the psalmist King David wrote in Psalm 103. If you have the proper fear or respect of Yah and His awesomeness, you will be given the desire to want a right relationship, aka, The Covenant, with Him. (see Deuteronomy 10:12-13)

What does it mean to “pass over the transgression”? What is the Father’s approach to forgiveness that we should have? (Micah 7:18)

In Jeremiah 31:31, with whom is the “new covenant” made? Has He rejected one group to accept another group? Has this prophecy already happened?

When you accept and act on the forgiveness provided you through what Messiah Yeshua did, does this absolve you of sin past, present and future? Why? Why not?

Finishing this teaching in the letter to the Colossians, Rabbi Berkson points out words such as expectation, worthy, fit… what do these crucial words have to do with the reward promised to us? Along with those words there are other words such as fruitful, empowered, delivered, redemption.

Don’t miss this final episode of this series that will forever change your life.

In this teaching Rabbi Steve Berkson focuses on what comes after forgiveness, which is what we are all seeking for when we get down on our knees before the Father after we’ve trespassed against Him.

As he takes us to the first of the passages in this teaching, Luke 23:33, we see Messiah Yeshua as He is being crucified by the hands of the Romans crying out to His Father to forgive them…they don’t understand what they are doing. Can you do the same under much less circumstances?

Can your unforgiveness cause someone to stumble? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Luke 17 to find out. Is the definition of the word ‘forgive’ in this passage clear? Could you actually forgive someone who comes to you and repents seven times in one day?

How does faith (emunah) work together with forgiveness? Rabbi Berkson shows us how from the event in Matthew chapter nine.

Then, in Acts 5:30 Rabbi Berkson points out through what the apostle Peter said, how the forgiveness and repentance given by Yah takes away the consequence for sin.

In 2 Corinthians 5:16 Rabbi Berkson explains the apostle Paul’s thought of how we should now look on forgiveness from a covenantal perspective. How much value the Father places upon you that He would send envoys to you, to plead with you, in the effort to reconcile with you and to restore you to favor.

Don’t miss this series of teachings on a subject that is so vital, yet so misunderstood.

How important is forgiveness? Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Matthew chapter six where he shows us the “model prayer” given by Yeshua when His disciples asked how they should pray.

In the prayer, which is just an outline for how to pray, Yeshua hits the issue of forgiveness, from the vertical, the Father, and also on the horizontal, between ourselves. Are you willing to do for your brother or sister what you expect the Father to do for you? As He does, so should you. If you don’t, He won’t.

What is the “negative emotional state”?

Then Rabbi Berkson takes us to Matthew 18:21-22 to look at a parable Yeshua told to give an example of what it looks like to be forgiven and to forgive. First, Peter poses the question about how many times should someone forgive another. Yeshua’s response was a multiplication equation.

What was the equation? What was the answer? Was the answer meant to actually be how many times we should forgive our brother/sister?

Before the master in the parable forgave the debt of his servant, what happened first?

What is it that Rabbi Berkson says we should never forget? How does it affect the way we treat others? (Deuteronomy 24:18)

How can haSatan use your unforgiving attitude?

What are the two things forgiveness does to thwart the adversary interfering in your life?

Do you really understand what it means to “grieve the set-apart (holy) spirit of Elohim? (Ephesians 4:30) Rabbi Berkson makes the understanding so simple. Don’t miss it.

What about being “sealed by the set-apart spirit of Elohim”? Are you clear about that?
