If anyone had something to boast about (credential wise) it was Paul. But, this apostle considered himself the chief of sinners and not yet mature as he ought to be. We must do the same. The first step to getting well is to admit that we are sick and accept the medicine of the Gospel of Christ.

Yeshua spends all night praying to Yahweh and then chooses 12 apostles. After this he comes down from the mountain and teaches and heals. In this message I cover prayer in light of Yahweh's sovereignty as well as Yahweh choosing ordinary people for extraordinary work.

Sometimes, Romans 14 is used in an attempt to say that the dietary laws of Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 have been abolished. This lesson takes the time to walk through the entire chapter and explain that such is not the case.

After Yeshua taught in the synagogue on the Sabbath, he decided that a man with a paralyzed hand needed to be healed. The Jewish leaders didn't like this and sought to accuse and even kill Yeshua. Did Yeshua break the Sabbath here? Was Yeshua trying to get people to see that the Sabbath wasn't all that important?

Before healing diseases, before casting out demons, before walking on water, you would always finding Yeshua doing something of utmost importance: teaching. We should enjoy solid, Scriptural teaching, both in listening to it, and in giving it in any capacity.

The Pharisees were spying on Yeshua and His disciples while they went through some grain fields on the second chief sabbath. The Pharisees then accused them of doing something unlawful. Was it unlawful? Was what David did unlawful?

Before moving into and explaining Luke 6:1-5 we must consider the peculiar reading Luke gives to us in verse 1. What kind of Sabbath was this? Was it just a normal Sabbath, or is there a reason the King James Version calls it "the second Sabbath after the first?" Listen to learn about the technical aspects of this reading.

Why didn't Yeshua's disciples fast often like John's or the Pharisees disciples? And what in the world did new garments and old garments, new wine and old wineskins have to do with this?

If we are to "do this in remembrance" of the Messiah's broken body and shed blood then there must be a time element involved. Is it just up to the individual believer? Do we do it at Easter or Christmas? Is the common practice of doing in on Sunday or every Sunday Biblical? What about Acts 20:7? Is the argument by some Messianics concerning "One of the Sabbaths" in Acts 20:7 a valid argument? Listen to learn about when the Masters Supper should be observed.

I had so much going on the week before this sermon that I did not prepare like I normally do. Instead, I covered four different thoughts (based upon Scripture) that had been running through my head all week. Hopefully, something will be gleaned as you listen.
