In the picture of ‘Last Supper’ after eating, Yeshua took the cup and made the blessing saying that this cup (the wine inside the cup) represented His blood, that would be shed for the forgiveness of sins and the ratification of the New Covenant. The prophet Jeremiah spoke of the New Covenant in light of Redemption and the Forgiveness of Sins (Jeremiah 31:30-33). This being the case, it should not be surprising that the Festival of Passover would be used at the backdrop for interpreting the key events in Yeshua's First Coming. Passover or Pesach is an important, biblically derived Jewish holiday. The Jewish people celebrate Passover as a commemoration of their liberation by G-D from slavery in Egypt and their freedom as a nation under the leadership of Moses. It commemorates the story of the Exodus as described in the Hebrew Bible especially in the Book of Exodus, in which the Israelites were freed from slavery in Egypt. Therefore, Passover is known as the Festival of Redemption but, are the Passover events authentic and reliable? Many alleged biblical scholars have studied intently conflicting statements and some have concluded that the New Testament does not provide an historically accurate account of the events of Yeshua's final hours and hence should not be relied upon as the basis for establishing one's faith. Is their conclusion a real “foundation” for this belief? Watch the Message >>

The Ten Commandments are abiding Laws for all people and not only given to the Hebrew people; all who would like to come into the commonwealth of Israel. Some of the Torah Instructions Bible seem to apply only to specific times, places, and persons; but the Ten commandments have an abiding quality about them. They convey duties for everyone and reveal to us the basic morality required by YHWH. While the Ten Commandments have universal validity, they are truly significant only when persons committed to the Elohim behind them. What makes Ten Commandments unique is the character of Elohim who gave them. Without the Father Almighty, the commandments lose their distinctiveness. The entire tree gets its nourishment from the Roots, which is Yeshua. Everything starts with Yeshua and He is the One giving life. The two pillars are mentioned it in the heart of the Torah: Deuteronomy 6:5 & Leviticus 19:18. The Seven Laws of Noah is a set of moral rules that were given by YHWH as a binding set of Laws for the children of Noah, meaning all of humankind. The first four commandments are related to one´s relationship with YHWH. The next six commandments have to do with human relationships (six being the number of man). It is important to note that right relationship with others follow being rightly related to YHWH. His instructions were given to correct us, to protect us and to give us direction; obviously, to enable me to live a righteous and holy life that is acceptable to YHWH. Watch the Message >> |
