Transition Plagues
One of the most popular questions today, among those returning to a study of Torah ‘for themselves’, is whether we are entering the End Times, or not. What will they look like, how will we know? And, more specifically, perhaps – how long do we have left? With the usual tongue-in-cheek proviso that “I don’t [...]
Read moreMonth In Review Feb
This month might need to be titled the past 6 months in review. The reason as to why I say that is because early Jan. Gaby and I took seven people over to our farm/ministry center to show them around and to see the vision that we felt the Eternal has given to us. We [...]

Last month we ended talking about Yaroboam and what he said in his heart about worship. “If these people go up to do slaughterings in the House of Yah at Yerushalayim, then the heart of this people shall turn back to their master, Reḥaboam sovereign of Yehudah, and they shall slay me and go back [...]

What does Mr. Whipple have to do with Our Father, The Creator, Yahweh? I do not wish to even hint at profaning the Name by associating it with George Whipple, I only want to make a point of what I think may be going on in this hour. As always I welcome feedback and correction. [...]

Word of the month by Brad Scott of Wildbranch Ministries Clouds I thought we might take a break from the “rabbinical” words for just a bit and cover a few prophetic words. The word cloud in the scriptures is very thought provoking. There are actually five words used for clouds in the Bible. The words [...]

Mishpatim (Statutes) Torah: Exodus 21:1-24:18 Haftarah: II Kings 11:17-12:17 Brit Chadasha: Luke 21:29-38 The Bondservant This week’s portion begins talking about servants. Here in this portion we find a really odd statement about a servant who wants to remain a servant forever in his master’s house.[i] The odd thing is the master taking this servant [...]

Yitro (Jethro) Torah: Exodus 18:1-20:23 Haftarah: Isaiah 6:1-7:6, 9:5-6 Brit Chadasha: James 4:11-17 Priesthood I started off with a verse that we are all familiar with and probably many of you like myself have used the verse above to say now that we are ‘saved’ we are a chosen race and a royal priesthood and [...]

Beshalach (When he Let Go) Torah: Exodus 13:17-17:16 Haftarah: Judges 4:4 -5:31 Brit Chadasha: John 16:7-33 Come Together In this week’s portion we see Pharaoh letting the children of Yisrael go. Something very interesting that I see here in the text is that Yahweh did not send the Yisraelites by the way of the Philistines. [...]

Bo (Enter I Go) Torah: Exodus 10:1 – 13:16 Haftarah: Jeremiah 46:13-28 Brit Chadasha: Ephesians 2:1-22 Trust in Him In the ending chapter of the previous portion we finally see Pharaoh verbally confessing that he had sinned against YHVH[i]. We all know how the story ends and clearly see from the Scriptures that there was [...]

Another month passes by here in Costa Rica and seeds that have been planted are beginning to spring forth from the soil even though we find ourselves at the beginning of the New Year according to the Gregorian Calendar. Jeff and I have been planting many seeds over the last four months and are watching [...]
