The angel Gabriel speaks of the greatness of the child that would be born to Zechariah and Elizabeth. But, Zechariah doubts the angels message and is struck with the inability to speak. Elizabeth conceives and is thankful for Yahweh's grace.
Who is Yeshua? Many people answer this question with various answers. Some people say Melchizedek is Yeshua or that Yeshua was the angel of Lord in the Old Testament. Are these answers Scriptural? Who really is Yeshua? Is he Almighty Yahweh?
Luke begins his account of Yeshua the Messiah by starting with the parents of a child who was conceived before Yeshua. These parents are righteous people, in the eyes of the Father. They were special, hand picked by the Father for a purpose.
There is just too much emphasis placed upon the New Moon in Scripture for it to be an ordinary day. The New Moon isn't just a day or phase to declare and then go about our mundane things like we do during the work week.

Paul explains in this section of his letter that not all Israel are truly Israel. What in the world does he mean here? To understand Paul's point you must travel back in time to see what took place in the life of people like Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, and Jacob.
Paul writes here that he has an intense sorrow in his heart for his fellow brothers in Israel that do not know Yeshua as the Messiah. He wonders if Yahweh's promises to Israel are meaningless seeing that many in Israel are unregenerate.
Paul closes this section of his epistle to the Roman assembly by reminding them that even though they are being put to death like sheep taken to the slaughter this does not mean that the love of Yahweh has left them.
All those whom Yahweh predestines to be conformed to the image of His Son He also calls, justifies, and glorified. There are no breaks in the chain here. No one can bring an accusation against the elect , because Yahweh is the one who justifies.
The reason the genuine believer can have assurance of salvation is not because of anything in them. It is rather because of what Yahweh has done for them. He lovingly foreknew them and predetermined their life to be conformed to the image of His dear Son.
