Messiah Matters

Do people who believe in the Messiah become Jewish? Do we become part of Israel? Once a person comes to faith are they no longer gentiles?

This week we look at an excellent question by a long time listener that raises the question, “Did the Messiah die for the whole world?” We then move to a discussion on 1John 2:27 and the claim by some that we no longer need teachers, but that everything we need to know is given through the Spirit of God.

This week we discuss Hanukkah and the time that we have just spent reflecting on the miracle recounted in 1Macc. Then we turn to some questions about giving unkosher food to the stranger (Deut. 14:21) and to the idea of allowing disobedience to reveal His mercy (Romans 11:32).  Executive Producers for this show: Bob Miller, Larue Miller, YeshuaShirts.com, Virginia Powers, John Coulthard, Zane Llyons, Lew and Erna Draper Want to receive show notes?

We look at several clips that peaked our interest, one discusses why Jews don't believe in Jesus, the other is a clip from Dr. Michael Brown that looks at Lev. 11 and the kosher laws. We also have several emails to look at.

This week we look at Community and the situation that has occurred within the Torah movement where people have no communities. Then we move to comments by an orthodox Rabbi suggesting Torah observant Christians have plagiarized customs and observances from Judaism.

This week we begin with a quick discussion about women and tzitzit, and then turn to Galatians 4:4. What does it mean that Yeshua was born “under law?” Often, those within mainstream Christianity will argue that this means Yeshua was born in a time when the Torah needed to be observed, but after His death there is no longer any need to be “under law,” meaning “keep Torah,” but is this what Galatians 4:4 really means?

On this weeks show we cover various topics including women and tzitzit, the idea of heart and mind in the Tanach, evil spirits in the Tanach, what does it mean the Law is fulfilled (Matt. 5:17) and a continued discussion from last weeks show about the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in Acts.

This week we listen to some voicemails that talk about Kosher laws and calendar issues, then we turn to a discussion about Elijah and what exactly it means that John the Baptist came in his spirit. Then we turn to the Holy Spirit in the book of Acts and discuss the idea that this kind of moving does or does not still occur today.

This week we look at some comments made by a prominent apologist and pastor who suggests that believers who “resurrect” the dietary laws are “capital H, Heretic[s].” We also look at a comment left on one of our videos that states catechisms are a Christian invention and should therefore be rejected by Messianic Jews. Also, a quick look at the festival of Yom Kippur and more!
