When professing Christians hear that someone believes baptism is part of the plan of salvation a host of objection arise. Scriptures like Acts 2:38 and 1 Peter 3:20-21 are usually thrown "under the water" and statements are made which make baptism really mean nothing.

Paul mentions the importance of baptism in his letters to the Romans and Galatians. We often miss the awesome implications about baptism by not considering the surrounding context of each of these passages.

What do you know about the wave sheaf of Leviticus 23:9-11? To most people it may not make a difference, but understanding the wave sheaf sheds much knowledge of understanding the timing of Yeshua's resurrection and presentation before the heavenly Father.

People have asked me over the years how we keep the Passover. This lesson is designed and intended to go through the ordinances of keeping Passover in simplicity. It is a short, verse by verse study through Exodus chapters eleven and twelve.

Before Yeshua was betrayed He attended a meal with His disciples. Many people today, theologians included believe that it was at this meal that Yeshua replaced the Passover with what is called in Scripture the Lord's Supper.

All through the book of Acts we see exactly how the apostles of our Messiah preached the good news to other people. Their preaching included teaching others about the water baptism commanded by our Messiah.

We sometimes have a difficult time believing what the Bible says about certain subjects or topics. This happens often when it comes to baptism as commanded by the Messiah in Matthew 28:18-20. People downplay baptism saying things like it is just an outward show and nothing else.

There are various baptisms mentioned throughout the Tanak (Old Testament), but there is one unique baptism that was prophesied about by the prophet Zechariah. The Priests and Levites during the days of Yeshua knew of this prophecy.

Baptism in water seems like a very simple step to take, and it is in some sense. Its significance though far outweighs the simplicity of its step. This is not because of what man says, but because of what Yahweh has said to man through His inspired Word.

What does the Bible say about demonic possession? Is it real? Can it really happen to people? This sermon takes a look at the Gospel according to Luke to discern just a little about how demons/fallen angels can possess human beings.
