The Messianic Torah Observer

In this study of Torah Reading 62, we examine the Book of the Law versus Book of the Covenant Controversy that has made its way through the Hebrew Roots and Messianic Community.

The prayer lives of many members in the Hebrew Roots-Messianic Community are ineffective and have little to no associated power. In this installment of TMTO, we look at the role faith places in a Netzari's prayer life and how faith can transform our prayers, when properly aligned with God's Word and His Holy Spirit, into a powerful and effective tool for the Body of Messiah. 

Are our prayers as effective as they should be? We discuss one of the critical-crucial elements of effective prayer-constancy-persistence-ceaselessness in prayer.

Was God's commandment that the Hebrews not go out to gather manna on the Sabbath a prohibition against cooking on the Sabbath?

Yeshua instructed us to pursue those things that qualifies one to receive and enter the Kingdom of God and the righteousness of YHVH our God. So how does Torah-keeping fit into this instruction?

Returning from the Fall Feasts, we anxiously launch into a new season. Today we examine the two predominant-types of Torah Portions followed by Hebrew Rooters; I reflect upon our 2019 Sukkot experiences; and we examine some patterns and types found in Torah.

As we approach the Fall Feasts of 2019, we are compelled to prepare spiritually and physically for each Feast's arrival. In this discussion of the Fall Feasts, we discuss the connection between God's grace and His Fall Feasts.

Why did Paul insert the creation story and the fall of man into 1 Timothy? Was it, as convention erroneously teaches, the reason women must not teach and preach in the Church? The answer to this question will shock you and cause you to appreciate battle Paul faced against Gnosticism in the Ephesian Assemblies of Messiah. This is Part 15 of our Paul and Hebrew Roots Series.

The so-called Church over the centuries has used 1 Timothy 2:11&12 as the basis for their imposed prohibition against women teachers and preachers in the Body of Messiah. But we will show that his passage in no way prohibits women from fulfilling their call and giftings in the Body and Assemblies of Messiah.

In continuing our Paul and Hebrew Roots series, we look at seeming inconsistencies in Paul's writings as well as examine the role myths and tales played in the teaching of Torah in the Ephesian Assemblies.
