I've tried to reason with scripture but they usually resort to saying the scriptures are tainted and have been changed. I feel there is nowhere to go once someone claims the scriptures we have are not originally what was written. It has been a true headache. Thank you for producing this material brother. Much love! ✌🏼

Thanks, Jesse! As Augustine famously said, “If you believe what you like in the Gospel, and reject what you don't like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.” Those who take that position don't usually think about it this way, but they are putting themselves in a position of authority over the Scriptures. And, at that point, when it comes to theological disagreements between us, I have to choose Holy Scripture over my friend's opinions. Hope you find my videos helpful in your ongoing discussions!

@@Pverb623 I used to work for a company where I worked alongside Orthodox Jews. One of them confessed to me that although there are over 600 Torah Laws, in reality, they only keep about half. I would think it's impossible to function in daily life while being mindful of 613 OT Laws at all times. If you break one, you break them all, according to Yahweh. And with no system for annual animal sacrifice to atone for sins, that's a no win situation. Book of Hebrews calls the Mosaic Law system the Ministry of Death & Condemnation. But the Good News is that Jesus Christ offers salvation TO SINNERS & SINNERS ONLY. Who REPENT & abide in Jesus Christ. Try reading Book of Hebrews & Galatians & Romans.

It's amazing to me that a man as learned as you appear to be, will be using Acts chapter 10 and saying that that vision negates us keeping Yah's dietary restrictions. Peter interprets his own vision after he goes to the centurion's home. He literally says that God has made man clean and what God has made clean he should not call common or unclean. It's not about pork it's about people.
@TheBiblicalRoots2 жыл бұрын
Hello, Mr. Batman. Well, at least you find me amazing in one sense. :-) I hear what you're saying, but we need to remember that Scripture inextricably links unclean people and unclean food: “You shall therefore separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the unclean bird from the clean. You shall not make yourselves detestable by beast or by bird or by anything with which the ground crawls, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean. You shall be holy to me, for I the Lord am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.” (Leviticus 20:25-26) God decreed a set of foods unclean for Israel (Lev 11), but Gentiles weren’t held to those laws (See Deut 14:21). So under the Mosaic Covenant, what you ate revealed who you were. This is why in Acts 10 God used a vision of food to indicate a change in the status of people. When the voice said of the food, “What God has made clean, do not call common” (Acts 10:15), Peter understood it signaled a change in the status of people as well. The holiness laws his ancestors had lived under for a millennium and a half- which categorized certain food and certain people unclean-had changed. If we take Peter’s vision solely as a metaphor for the Gentiles, we run into two significant problems. First, on what basis are we willingly allowing for a change in the Law of Moses on the issue of people, but not food? It's an arbitrary standard based on a pre-commitment to keeping the kosher food laws. Second, if the vision was solely given as a metaphor for the Gentiles, the command to “kill and eat” (v. 13) and the declaration “What God has made clean, do not call common” (v. 15) would be based on a falsehood. Yahweh would be teaching that formerly impure people are now clean by _falsely_ declaring formerly impure food clean. There is no precedent in scripture for God doing such a thing. Moreover, Yahweh does not teach false things or abide deceit. “It is impossible for God to lie” (Heb 6:18). Blessings, Rob

I have never eaten unclean. This is a few years after Jesus died. They kept the mosaic law. They kept the sabbath. We are saved 100% by faith. But we should also wanna do what the Bible says to do.. I’m not trying to fight at all … just open your eyes… when you read the prophets they are prophesying restoration of Israel. During the millennial reign.. we will be keeping the sabbath and festival and if the nations don’t show up for sukkot it won’t even rain on there land. Now if you didn’t know.. we will be doing sacrifices in the millennial reign.. did you know that? See the problem is we have learned the Bible from men and haven’t studied enuff to show ourselves approved. Jesus kept the sabbath and ate clean… his disciples ate clean and kept the sabbath. Pual which came a few years later. He kept the law. He kept the sabbath. Jesus said I didn’t come to abolish. We are not under law but grace. You gotta have the right foundation or the WHOLE Bible is off in view. This is a Hebrew faith.. we are grafted in… we don’t take over the promises… those are Israeli and we cling to them. And an even bigger topic is who the true Hebrews are.. cause the people living in Israeli right now… are not what Jesus looked like… 1948 man made Israeli is not the fulfillment of prophecy. They don’t dwell safely. They hate our messiah and Christian’s. They want a new messiah. They wanna build third temple.

This is imperative to understand in respect to the promise of the new covenant, where sanctification is defined as an internal work, clearly because of God's sending of The Messiah, who is our righteousness and holiness. This is why Paul defines our relationship to the law as being entirely re-defined by the freedom found uniquely in Christ (Galatians 3:22). Keep up the good work!

the question becomes, if the only two commands are to love God and people. how do we do that? it seems like now that every other command is gone, we are left to our own interpretation of what love is. example: it used to be Gods command that his people were not to worship him the way pagans did by making up their own feasts to him (golden calf) but now can we love God and celebrate man made feasts to God. (chrismas) It seems with only just two commands that we are leaving a lot out and a lot would be left up to people's own interpretation of what they believe love is. And what exactly would be the definition of sin now?

This is the usual Jesus nullified the law teaching. He came and fulfilled the law in order to nullify the law. Because God made a mistake with the first law so had to make another covenant that didn’t include all those annoying bits. The problem with the first covenant was that the people were stiff necked and hard-hearted so the new covenant He is writing it on our hearts so we will want to keep his law! It’s not a new law. Jewish people are not Israel. Israel are the twelve tribes of Jacob. Ten tribes were scattered amongst the nations not destroyed. Jesus came to restore the lost sheep (lost 10 tribes) that is who the gentile believers are. They are descendants of Jacob or they are adopted into Israel. They are certainly not Jews but likewise they are Gods people. The feasts are not Jewish feasts they’re God’s feasts to be kept for all generations, not “until I made another covenant”. Again the covenant was made with Israel not just the Jews so we should keep His calendar rather than man’s calendar. The fourth commandment is keep the sabbath not Constantine’s sun worship day. Peter’s vision was not about abandoning the dietary law! It was about not calling gentiles unclean. Peter didn’t start eating bacon 😂he went to the gentile household and gave them the gospel. Paul went to the temple and paid for the sacrifices so the men could complete their Nazarene vows. He was accused of teaching against the law of Moses which he denied multiple times. Peter warns that Paul is difficult to understand and is easily misinterpreted by those who teach lawlessness. Paul didn’t teach against circumcision. He taught it is not for salvation and you should not do it until you understand the law which new gentile believers did not do. Gentiles are not to become Jews but they’re to learn to follow the Torah out of loving obedience just as messiah Yeshua (Jesus) did. That’s what he was teaching. Hebrew roots people go too far and start keeping the oral law which Jesus riled against. He condemned the ritual hand washing and sabbath walking laws turning the ritual hand washing water into wine and commanding the lame man to pick up his bed and walk in breach of the oral tradition of man. Jesus taught to not add or subtract from the law of Moses. He commanded we do what the Pharisees teach isn the synagogue when seated on the seat of Moses (the Law) but not do as the Pharisees do (oral law) Your wife is doing correctly teach your children Torah. Sunday worship, Easter and Christmas are pagan holy days. Humble yourself,seek His face, pray and repent and He will hear you, He will be your God and you will be His son and He will heal your land (relationship with your family). I bless you and your family. May you experience the blessings of keeping His commandments as a family being set-apart from the world, in Yeshua’s name amen

I’m learning more and more how an understanding of the biblical covenants proves that the Hebrew Roots perspective is unbiblical. When you see that some commands are specific to a certain covenant, you see that one cannot simply cite a commandment to show it is binding. Priests had certain washings that were commanded under the Mosaic covenant, but now, there are no true priests under that covenant. In the New Covenant, we are all priests, with Jesus our high priest, and so we all are commanded to do the washing (baptism), but only once, because in it we identify with Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection, which were once for all time.

Hey, BT! The Law of Moses speaks to more than just what sin is. It also speaks to the ceremonial and national laws of ancient Israel. And the problem arises when we conflate the two. The ceremonial laws were given to Israel alone and have never been incumbent on Gentiles. It's not a sin for Gentiles to eat pork or work on Saturday, for example. The laws of right and wrong, on the other hand, apply to everyone. We know this because (a.) those moral laws existed long before Sinai, and (b.) God never judges other nations for not keeping Shabbat, or eating kosher, or observing the feasts. Israel alone is judged for that. Yet, (c.) other nations _are_ judged for moral evil. Blessings, Rob

@@LeeHolmes-i4w the important distinction is that, for example, breaking the written commandment of keeping the sabbath (perfectly) means death if the 10 commandments are still binding to New Testament believers in Jesus Christ. This is not the case, and we are not obligated to keep them. Neither were we instructed to keep the 10 commandments by the apostles (& the Holy Spirit) in Acts at the council of Jerusalem. The law is fulfilled in love, we are saved by grace through faith. Therefore, saying we should keep the 10 commandments is not only something the Bible doesn’t teach, but a false doctrine which can cause fear to Christians who don’t understand we’re not obligated to do so, and causing them to stumble and question the liberty we have in Christ Jesus. A little leaven leavens the whole lump, unnecessary bondage to the law of Moses can cause a lot of destruction.

@ Keeping the 10 Commandments is not keeping the blanket statement “law of Moses “ . Read more carefully God made a clear separation between the Covenant 10 Commandments and the rest which were instructions (Torah) on how his Nation Israel should live in the land of promise before God in order for it to be well with them . Then Jesus when asked how we should obtain eternal life tells the young man keep the Commandments, but he specifically sighted the 10 Commandments and none of the 600+ others. Then again Paul reminds us that the 10 Commandments are written on our hearts. And so to you I would say that if you are born again and it is written in your heart it is not a burden to walk reverently in the Ways of the Lord..

10 commandments are not part of Mosaic law. They are eternal moral precepts given to all mankind, not just the Hebrews. They were placed inside the ark of the covenant, as opposed to all other laws placed outside the ark. That was done to make a clear distinction between the two. The 10 commandments is the moral law given to all created beings, whether angels or humans. How do we know that? All throughout the Bible, whenever there is a mention of fall of Lucifer ( angels) or Adam ( humans) there is a reference to sin. What is sin? Transgression of the law. Which one? 10 commandments.Therefore, it is critical two make demarcation between Mosaic laws ( for the Hebrews) which were nailed to the cross and 10 commandments which were not. 10 commandments define sin, and we are supposed to fulfil the law ( like Jesus), love is fulfilling of the law. To keep God's commandments is synonymous with love. Blessings

For someone who claims to be a theologian, you display an appalling ignorance of Scripture and Hebrew history. Contrary to what you claim: 1. Gentiles living in Israel were not expected to be Torah-observant. Although they were not supposed to work on the sabbath, they were not required to circumcise their sons or eat only kosher foods, for example. 2. The Torah was not built piecemeal with the addition of extra mitzvot each time Israel disobeyed God. 3. Although the 10 northern tribes were taken into captivity and Israel never recovered as a nation, those tribes were not wiped off the map. Many Israelites fled south to the nation of Judah. All 12 tribes were thus affected by the Babylonian captivity and a remnant of all 12 later returned to the Promised Land. 4. The Promised Land did not become a theocracy post-exile; that is what it was between Moses and King Saul. Post-exile, it became a hierocracy. 5. The commandments referred to in Matthew 22:36-40 were not introduced for the new covenant; they merely affirmed existing summaries of the old one (cf. Deuteronomy 6:5; Leviticus 19:18). The greatest commandment encapsulates the first four of the 10 commandments and the second greatest commandment encapsulates the last six. 6. Your assertion that obedience to even the 10 commandments has been done away with on the basis of Matthew 22:36-40 is not supported by anything written in the NT. One wonders what you have to say about: 1 Corinthians 7:19; Matthew 5:28 (cf. Exodus 20:17); Matthew 19:16-19 (cf. Exodus 20:12-16: Leviticus 19:18); Romans 13:9 (cf. Exodus 20:13-15; 17: Leviticus 19:18); Ephesians 6:1-3 (cf. Exodus 20:12); Colossians 3:5 (cf. Exodus 20:3, 14, 17); 1 Corinthians 8:6 (cf. Exodus 20:3)? 7. Acts 10 has nothing to do with God declaring all foods clean. As the narrative plainly shows, Peter's vision was allegorical and the reality concerned sharing the gospel with gentiles. Given the ritual purity context of Mark 7, even Mark 7:19 only applies to _kosher_ foods. Furthermore, 1 Corinthians 10:23-30 concerns asking questions about whether food has been offered in sacrifice, not whether it is kosher. 8. In saying the old covenant has become obsolete, the writer does not say it has already been abolished; rather, he says it _will soon_ disappear. You say, however, that the old covenant has in fact already disappeared. Yet your own defense of the Law's ongoing utility confirms that it has not. 9. Your claim that the Law of Moses concerned only outward acts and behaviors is false. The two greatest commandments already prove otherwise. Moreover, the 1st and 10th Commandments (which bookend the rest) clearly concern one's thoughts. As an example if this, Jesus' teaching about lust in Matthew 5:28 addresses the 10th commandment, not the 7th. In the Septuagint, the verb translated 'covet' in Exodus 20:17 & Deuteronomy 5:21 is ἐπιθυμέω (epithumeó), the same word Jesus used for lust at Matthew 5:28. Paul used the corresponding noun, ἐπιθυμία (epithumia), in Romans 7:7 & 13:9 when referring to Exodus 20:17 & Deuteronomy 5:21. Paul drives the point home in Romans 7:7-8: _I should not have known what it is to covet_ (ἐπιθυμία - epithumia) _if the law had not said, "You shall not covet_ (ἐπιθυμέω - epithumeó) _." But sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, wrought in me all kinds of covetousness_ (ἐπιθυμία - epithumia). In other words, lust and covetousness are the same thing in Scripture. As for Adam and Eve in the garden, perhaps you'd care to explain how either could have violated the 10th commandment? 10. Christ does not give us his righteousness. You should read 2 Corinthians 5:21, which says Christ was _made_ sin for us (not that our sin was imputed to Him) and that we _become_ the righteousness of God through union with Christ (not just have it imputed to us). See also Romans 3:22; 5:19; Galatians 3:13 & Philippians 3:9. There is no scriptural support for the imputation of: a. Adam's guilt or sin nature to anyone; b. our guilt to Christ; or c. Christ's righteousness to us. These are just inferences Calvinists and others have imported into Scripture (i.e. eisegesis) to support their doctrine. What we do see, though, is that faithfulness to God was reckoned to Abraham as righteousness (Romans 4:3, 9, 22). See also Romans 4:5-6 for righteousness on the basis of faithfulness being imputed to us also.
