The New Testament is called inerrant, i.e, incapable of being wrong. However, there is at least one problem with that statement and critics are quick to point it out: there are conflicting reports of the timeline of the Messiah’s crucifixion. The Synoptic Gospels tell a seemingly different story than the Gospel of John. If we hope to defend the word “inerrant,” we should understand what the differences are, why they’re problematic, and how we might reconcile. them. Join us as we work to find a resolution in Part 2 of The Crucifixion Contradiction.

Passover is a season of joy, a celebration of the redemption of the people of Israel. Yet the Mishnah says we should begin telling the story with the “disgrace“ of it. This seems odd. But there’s actually a powerful reason for it, especially applicable to disciples of Yeshua. Join us for this discussion.

Jesus declared all foods clean. Seems pretty straightforward. Hence the fact that at Easter in North America, the number one meat consumed is ham. It’s an ironic twist. But if Jesus truly did change everything around, what's the problem? No condemnation here but we should definitely have a talk. :)

Like it or not, you are an animal. It’s a jarring consideration, no doubt. It’s not all you are, but that animal instinct does make up a part of you. The first step to overcoming it is to acknowledge it. In Part Two of Lessons In Leviticus, we’ll discuss how the Torah's sacrificial system leads us toward taming that animal inside us and living a life for God and our fellow human.

Did Yeshua come to get rid of the sacrificial system? Isn't that what he mean when he quoted Hosea by saying, "I desire mercy, and not sacrifice"? The answer may surprise you. Join us in this challenging series to learn more about the purpose and function of the sacrificial system, particularly how Yeshua would have viewed it.

God is mercy. God is justice. We know that Yeshua demonstrates the “fullness of deity” as Colossians says, which suggests that he, too, would represent both mercy and justice. His death and resurrection clearly demonstrates mercy toward us. But what role did the cross play in restoring justice? This is a very significant concept that every believer should understand. We’ll examine it together in this message.

“I am not ashamed of the name above names.” These are some of the lyrics to a well-known worship song. It speaks of the exalted status of Yeshua and the Father’s apparent acknowledgment that Messiah’s name is above all. However, there’s a problem. Yeshua himself never says or even suggests this. Have we missed something in the interpretation of Philippians 2:9? Let's find out together.

Part 2 of this series explores some similarities between the story of the golden calf and the crucifixion of the Messiah. Both were rooted in rejection of God’s offer to live in a just world. Last week we saw Moses intercede for mercy beyond justice. This week we look at Yeshua doing the same thing, and then some!

When God hands man perfection we tend to soil it pretty quickly. In the garden we chose to disobey the one rule God gave us. At Sinai we said we would obey, but chose the opposite instead. Both Moses and Yeshua pleaded for Hashem's mercy to be poured out on humanity to save us from the consequences of our actions. How do these two individuals work together to help us turn from our self-destructive nature? Tune in to find out.
