The purpose of this podcast is to tell the stories of those followers of the Messiah who have discovered the truth and applicability of the whole word of God. We have come to understand that Jesus — also known by His Hebrew name, Yeshua — was not kidding when He said in Matthew 5 that He did NOT come to do away with the Law of God, or the Torah. We have come to know exactly what the Apostle Paul was really talking about when he wrote that believers are “no longer under the Law”, which was NOT that we are no longer bound by God’s Law, but that the believers of his time were no longer bound by the excessive, Gentile-hating law of the infamous Rabbi Shammai, which was known as the 18 measures. We have come to know and appreciate the instructions that were given straight from the mouth of God to the ears of His people through Moses, which according to Deuteronomy 30:11 are NOT too difficult for us or beyond our reach, and which are actually written on our hearts in the New Covenant, according to Jeremiah 31. Therefore, believers from this walk of faith -- known sometimes as Messianic, Torah-observant, Torah-Pursuant, or Hebrew Roots -- live our lives according to the ways of our Creator. We follow HIS calendar and keep HIS appointed times, including the Biblical Feasts like Passover and Yom Kippur, and the seventh-day Sabbath. We keep the dietary laws, avoiding unclean things as we are instructed to do by Paul in 2 Corinthians 6. We do our best to steer clear of the doctrines and traditions of men.
This is episode 22. This week, due to unforeseen things like wildfire evacuations and hurricanes, travel and other messy life stuff, I was forced to reschedule my guests and do something different. So I’ve assembled a short little montage of clips taken from the two previous season 2 interviews with Mark & Cheri Olson and David and Krista Hooven.
