Why Standing with Israel Still Matters

What if Israel’s stumbling was never the end of her story? What if the grafting-in of the nations is not replacement, but restoration? Romans 9–11 reveals God’s breathtaking covenant plan—where Israel, the nations, and Messiah Yeshua become one family rooted in mercy. Dr. Shawn M. Greener, Follower of the Way, unpacks the Hebraic and Ancient Near Eastern context behind Paul’s olive tree imagery and shows how Jew and Gentile together form God’s covenant people.

The Struggle Within | Romans 7 Explained: Why Believers Still Battle Sin

What if the real war is not between you and God’s Law, but between you and the sin that twists it? What if Paul’s desperate cry in Romans 7, “Wretched man that I am,” is not defeat, but discovery?

In this powerful teaching, Dr. Shawn M. Greener, Follower of the Way, unpacks Romans 7:14–25 through the Hebraic and Ancient Near Eastern worldview. Discover why the struggle you feel inside is not a sign of failure but a sign of life. The unregenerate feel no battle. Only those filled with the Spirit wrestle between light and darkness.

• Why Paul’s “struggle with the flesh” reveals covenant faithfulness, not hypocrisy.

• What “sold under sin” meant in the Greco-Roman slave market and why that image matters today.

• The difference between the law of God and the law of sin.

• How to tell conviction from condemnation.

• The five-step Battle Plan to walk in victory through the power of the Spirit.

🌮 Taco Tony returns with humor and wisdom, reminding us that “the Law without the Spirit is like a taco shell with no filling. You have structure but no sustenance.”

ANNOUNCEMENT — NEW TRUE WORD, FAITH FOR LIFE! SCHEDULE

https://rumble.com/v718l3a-first-i-am-so-sorry-and-new-show-dates-and-times.html

Before I share the exciting news about our new schedule, I want to begin with a sincere apology. Some of your comments were not showing up under the videos in the public comment section, and I just recently discovered that they were hidden in YouTube Studio. I am so sorry to anyone who thought I ignored your words or didn’t care about what you shared — whether you agreed or disagreed with me. Your voices, your thoughts, and your faith matter deeply to me. Now that I know where those comments have been hiding, I will be reading and replying personally. Thank you for your patience and for being part of this growing community of believers.

Now for the good news! Our podcast schedule is changing — and it’s going to be powerful. We are moving to two livestreams each week, both designed to help you go deeper into God’s Word and live it out with bold, joyful faith.

Sundays at 6:30 PM EST will feature our Dynamic Bible Teaching, a 30–35 minute journey through Scripture that brings the text to life with practical application and covenant truth for everyday living. Then, on Wednesdays at 6:30 PM EST, we will gather for a one-hour in-depth exegetical and expository study focusing on the Ancient Near Eastern languages, culture, and context of the Bible. Think of it as a Bible College class that’s actually fun, relatable, and full of life-changing discovery!

I would be deeply honored if you would join me for both sessions. Bring your Bible, your questions, and your heart ready to learn and grow in the truth of God’s Word.
 Shalom b’Shem Yeshua!

What if all of human history could be summarized in the story of two men, Adam and Messiah?  What if your destiny, your identity, and your eternity depend on which humanity you belong to?

Let me ask you something from your heart: Whose image are you reflecting today, Adam’s or Messiah’s?

Tell me in the comments below. I will personally read and respond to every one of your comments.

Abraham: The Father of Covenant Faith

Series: Romans: Covenant, Faithfulness, and the Grafted-In Life

What if faith isn’t just believing something in your head, but living with covenant loyalty in your life? What if Abraham’s story isn’t merely ancient history, but the living pattern for every believer today, both Jew and Gentile alike?

Romans 4 takes us back to Genesis to show that the Gospel was never a new idea. It is the same story that began in Eden, carried through Abraham, fulfilled in Messiah, and now continues through you and me.

So let me ask you, right here at the start: When you think of faith, do you picture a feeling, or do you picture loyalty? Do you see belief, or do you see obedience?
