Download: Pentecost - Freedom to Live Holy and Happy Lives

God saved a people from the dominion of slavery and misery. He then brought them out of that place of darkness into the light of Kingdom. He offered them a covenant to become His treasured people. He gave them His Law and the promised land called Israel. All of this was to prep them for the second and greater Pentecost where a new covenant with even better promises and better provisions would be offered to them. This new covenant would also usher in the beauty, glory, and power of the Holy Spirit. This empowering presence of God would enable people to live clean, and beautifully holy lives, free from the dominion of the uncleanness and defilement of sin and shame! This is what it means to be free! This is freedom! In this teaching we will explore what it means to be truly free.

Egypt was a Kingdom immersed in lies and bondage. The Kingdom of Messiah is a Kingdom drenched in truth and freedom. If you desire and value liberty, get into the Kingdom of God now. You will not only find liberation from deception and misery, but you will also find everything your spirit longs for. Coming out of the Kingdom of falsehoods and into the Kingdom of truth is what Passover and Shavuot is all about.

Download: Coming Out of Our Egypt’s of Sin and Shame

The exodus gives us a picture of what it means to come out of a kingdom of slavery and misery. It serves as a type and shadow of what it means to come out of the domain of sin and shame.  As believers who are saved by grace through faith in the blood of the lamb, this call to leave the realm of sin is key to our happiness. We are called to be holy now that God has made us His own possession. We will respond to that call and by the power of the Holy Spirit we will come out of our cages of sin.  If we do not, the Lord will bring us down low and even cut our lives short. This is the lesson of the exodus.  During the counting of the Omer, let us take seriously the call to holiness, and the offer of the power of the Holy Spirit to get us there.

The Second Moses, the Second Passover, and the New Covenant

Weekly Service

On Nissan the 14th we will be celebrating the Lord’s annual Passover! This is the Lord’s Passover in commemoration of Him as Savior and Redeemer. For Messianic Jews and Messianic Gentiles, it memorializes the first physical deliverance from physical slavery and death, as well as the second and greater deliverance from the dominion of sin, shame, and spiritual death. The first Passover was accomplished by Moses, and the second and greater Passover was accomplished by the second and greater Moses, Yeshua the Messiah! In the second and greater Passover, the long-awaited new covenant was established, so that all the provisions and promises that were lost in former disobedience are now yes and amen in Yeshua the Messiah. It is with immeasurable joy, that we all in Messiah, will partake in our Passover Seders in honor of Yeshua, the Passover Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! Happy Passover!

The Sign of Jonah and the Passover Connection

Weekly Service - Sermon Study Guide

Download: The Sign of Jonah and the Passover Connection

In our previous teachings we discovered that Yeshua, The Lamb of God, was crucified, died, and then was buried on Friday, Nissan the 15th before sunset. We also noted that He rose on the 3rd day corresponding to Sunday, Nissan the 17th in fulfillment of First Fruits. The reoccurring question among many believers who do not understand the 1st century cultural Jewish context is, how do we reconcile this with the sign of Jonah being 3 full days and 3 full nights in the belly of the whale? In order for Jesus to fulfill the sign of Jonah, wouldn’t He need to be in the grave 72 hours? Our interpretation only has him in the grave for approximately 40 hours; from around 3pm Friday until around 5 am on Sunday. How do we reconcile this apparent contradiction? In today’s teaching we will solve this dilemma in a satisfying and credible way!

In our previous teaching we discovered that Yeshua kept, observed, and ate a Passover meal at the appointed time on Nissan the 14th as it transitioned into the night if Nissan the 15th. In this teaching we will turn our attention to the crucifixion of Yeshua on the 15th day of Nissan, which corresponds to the 1st day of the 7 day festival known as Unleavened Bread. It is on this day that Yeshua, the long-awaited Lamb of God, would be sacrificed. This would be fulfillment of what the week of Passover foreshadowed.

Jesus and the Passover Connection

Download: Jesus and the Passover Connection

Jesus kept and observed the Passover. Ultimately, He fulfilled it in His death on the cross. That fulfillment transformed this Holyday in such a way that it would never be the same. Since that time, more and more people are referring to it as the second and greater Passover. As followers of Jesus, we too celebrate the biblical holydays of our Father in Heaven. Our annual celebration of Passover is full of joy and thanksgiving precisely because Jesus, the Lamb of God, died for us at Passover nearly 2000 years ago. As a result, we are forgiven and reconciled to God! This is why we keep and observe the Passover. It is in honor of Jesus, the Lamb of God! Today, we will explore Jesus, His connection to Passover, and what that means for our world.

Navigating through the Storm Part 4

Weekly Service

In continuation of last week's sermon, we will look at one specific way we as the church can overcome – spiritual warfare. Effective spiritual warfare takes place when we place our trust and faith in Yeshua as our only Savior and King. Through His redemption we are born from above and empowered by the Holy Spirit to begin our journey back into the ancient paths of His commandments (Jer. 6:16​). As we discover, embrace, and walk out truth and righteousness as found in His Word, we experience liberty and victory over the evil one. This is a walk of faith. In fact, faith is one of our weapons in overcoming the enemy. In this teaching we will pick up last week’s insights into the nature of faith and how to use it effectively against the onslaught of evil in our lives and in our world.

2021 will mark the year of the cancel culture movement being weaponized and empowered through a frightening unity between big government and big business. Its goal will be to silence all would speak contrary to its ideologies and values. In the words of former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler,

"disagree, and you will be canceled and not just your social media account, but your job, your family, your educational opportunities, even your God-given rights. Only those who meet their ideological purity test can claim moral superiority and retain their voice."

When big government joins with big business to silence and oppress people it becomes an unconstitutional hellish beast. In the end, it will destroy our nation and murder many of its people. The only entity that can stand between an immoral mega fiendish system and the people is the Ekklesia (Church)! With Yeshua as our head and all of heaven standing behind us, we can overcome this tyranny, even in its ugliest forms and greatest of powers! In this sermon, we will look at one specific way we as the church can overcome cancel culture – the armor of God.

Joseph is perhaps the clearest forerunner of Yeshua as the suffering Messiah. His story is filled with love, glory, pain, and disillusionment. In some respects, to one degree or another, our lives are similar to his life. We are connected to him and his people through Messiah. His story is our story. We can learn lessons from his life that will keep us from failing in our lives. This is one of the reasons that the story was written down and preserved for us.

Genesis 3:15 gives the prophecy and promise that the Messiah, who is the Light of God, will come and crush the head of the serpent, who later is identified as the great red dragon, the devil and Satan.  From that time on, until the serpent’s head is crushed, both heaven and earth are in an intense and relentless struggle between good and evil.  In His death, and descent into realm of the dead he triumphed over Satan and his angels. He took the keys of death away from Satan. He bound him rendering him powerless over the nations. However, at the end of the millennium, the dragon will be released and empowered for a short time to deceive the nations one last time.  Yeshua will then destroy the serpent (Satan) as symbolized in the crushing of his head. Today, we will conclude this teaching with the prophecy concerning the fate of the Serpent as found in Revelation 20:1-10.

Genesis 3:15 gives the prophecy and promise that the Messiah, who is the Light of God, will come and crush the head of the serpent, who later is identified as the great red dragon, the devil, and Satan. From that time on, until the serpent’s head is crushed, both heaven and earth are in an intense and relentless struggle between good and evil. This is often described in the figures of speech called light and darkness. Messiah’s Kingdom is even called the Kingdom of Light and the serpent’s kingdom is called the kingdom of darkness. In part one of this series, we noted that there was an inaugural fulfillment in Jesus' first advent of the ancient prophecy found in Genesis 3:15. In His death and descent into realm of the dead, he triumphed over Satan and his angels. He took the keys of death away from Satan. Jesus bound him rendering him powerless over the nations. However, at the end of the millennium, the dragon will be released and empowered for a short time to deceive the nations one last time. Jesus will then destroy the serpent (Satan) as symbolized in the crushing of his head. Today, we will continue our journey into this prophecy by taking a closer look at Revelation 20:4 and the verses that follow.
