Back to the Basics

This is a re-recorded message I recently taught in church. The question is asked, what dies it look like, getting back to the basics.

It is time for us as the church to begin to resemble that of the church the Apostles had built, on the revelation that Ye...

Vaera: Gen 6:2-9:35

In this weeks Parashah, we get into the showdown between YHVH and Pharaoh. As Moshe and Aharon stand before Pharaoh as ambassadors of the one true God, Pharaoh is determined to stand his ground no matter what. Plague after plague, YHVH consistently shows Himself as God as He renders the various god's of Egypt powerless to stand before Him. As we look into these various plagues, we can only come to the conclusion that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the one true God, as He begins to do une...

Vayeshev: Genesis 37:1-40:23

In this weeks parashah, we get into the exploits of Joseph. Joseph is a type of Messiah, in the sense that not only is he rejected by his brothers and cast away, but that he comes back as a vessel of salvation for the whole house of Israel as well as the rest of the world. The process of becoming great was not an overnight one, in fact, it takes him in the opposite direction, but it is his right attitude and ability to trust God even in adversity that ultimately thrusts him into greatness.

Toldot: Gen 25:19-28:9

In this parashah, we get into the birth of Esau and Jacob. Without a doubt one of the most well known stories in Torah. In the midst of everything going on, one of the things that stand out most is how Esau could so easily disregard his birthright for a little food. However, Torah never gives us the answer to this question, leaving us to to wonder and speculate for ourselves. As it would happen, there are other sources out there where these answers, as well as some other interesting things can b...
