The Jewish leaders make some accusations against Stephen at the end of Acts 6. Oftentimes, Stephen’s words in Acts 7 are seen as simply a historical recounting of the nation of Israel, but what if his words are designed to respond directly to the accusations?

A refresher sermon on the importance of Holy Scripture. This is a forward to my soon series through Paul’s first epistle to young Timothy.

The closing sermon for our Sukkot gathering (2025). I talk some about prophecy and eschatology, and then I briefly do some exegesis in Colossians 2. I end with talking about where I’m at on understanding what the Feast of Booths foreshadows.

I cover: Scriptural months are lunar based, why both seven days and the eighth day are mentioned in the instructions for the Feast of Booths, the various fire offerings related to this Feast, and the importance of the Miqra Kodesh (Sacred Assembly).

I look at who exactly (what people groups) were delivered out of the land of Egypt, as well as the Hebrew word for “booths.” Some time is then taken to trek through Nehemiah’s account of Ezra and company finding this Feast in the Book of the Law.

We begin to study into the last of the major, annual Festivals to Yahweh by looking at the two names it is given as well as how it relates to the heavenly light calendar in Genesis 1:14-19.

I begin to delve into the last major, annual Festival to Yahweh, but take the time to consider why only the males are commanded to appear before Yahweh in both Exodus and Deuteronomy. This sermon takes a few minutes to look at the recent tragedy, the assassination of a good, Christian brother - Charlie Kirk.

Some in the Sacred Name Community use Exodus 23:13 as a launching pad for claiming the name Jesus has pagan origins. This lesson seeks to simplify the matter by looking at from where the name Jesus stems with the process of transliteration.

I delve into a topic here that many never think about, and some poke fun of those who even bring it up. What is the best way to translate the Hebrew words el and elohim into the English language? What is the origin of the English word god? These questions and more are covered.

I go over some specifics in regards to the actual, literal speaking of common words that may stem from pagan origin, and then move into tracking the various Hebrew words behind the word lord in the English Bible. Some points about the name YHWH are covered as well.

This section begins to detail a dispute that Stephen (a disciple of the Apostles) had with some in his hometown synagogue. Stephen’s wisdom, and face, showed forth that he was truly sent by Yeshua.

I begin exegeting the second part of Exodus 23:13, looking at the meaning of the Hebrew word zakar, and then asking the question of how far we go in obedience to this command.

There are commandments and there are traditions of men. We are to be strict in one, and loose in the other. I cover the Hebrew word “shamar,” and the English word “circumspect” in this sermon.

A sermon calling us to imitate the Master in his desire to see people enter a relationship with him and his Father.

Taking a look at the speciality of prophet Moshe, as well as the Torah (Law, Instructions) Yahweh gave through him.

Yahweh has blessed you by putting someone (and probably a few someone’s) in your life that is a good person. Never take that for granted.

What the apostles of Yeshua decided to do was based off of what prophet Moses did back in his day. The leaders in a community should always carry righteous qualities and characteristics, in order to set a good example for everyone following.

To close out this series on Pentecost I take time to answer the three most common objections I hear against the view I take. Pay attention closely because there are some key points in how to do proper Bible study in this lesson.

I take a look at some key Scriptures about the harvest timing of both wheat and grapes, showing the connection between an ancient prophecy and the Apostle Peter’s preaching.

What if the numbering of the fifty days doesn’t take place until after the seventh Sabbath? This lesson walks through the narrative in the book of Exodus surrounding Mount Sinai, going through several points that lead me in this direction.
