Episodes

  1. 938 Why Samaria? (Acts 8:5-8)

    Phillip goes down to Samaria to share the gospel with them. The Samaritans are addressed in this sermon, along with a link to an earlier portion in the book of Acts. Great joy is had when the gospel is proclaimed!

  2. 937 Good Pastors are Worthy of Material Support (1 Timothy 5:17-18)

    Some pastors have abused congregants in regards to money and finances, but does that mean good pastors shouldn’t be given to? I begin a mini-series here about paid ministers.

  3. 936 So Much Grows out of Marriage (Genesis 2:18, 21-24)

    If we do not focus on making our marriage the best it can be, growth will be stifled in our service to the Creator. Prioritize your wife (husband), and serve your husband (wife).

  4. 935 Younger Widows: ReMarry, Have Children, Keep House

    Paul gives some reasons as to why younger widows should not be put on the official support list to be taken care of by their local assembly. The enemy can sneak into a person’s life through just a crack. Don’t give him an inch or he will take a mile.

  5. 934 Where Did the Kingdom Go? (Acts 8:4-8)

    Have we lost the Gospel message? What did Yeshua teach about the Gospel? Listen to learn about just how important the actual, literal Kingdom of the Almighty is.

  6. 933 Widows Indeed: Alone, Devout, Older (1 Timothy 5:5-7, 9-10)

    I talk about the specific qualifiers a widow must meet in order to be put on a list (formal) by her local fellowship for material support.

  7. 932 You Can Deny the Faith by Your Behavior (1 Timothy 5:3-4, 8)

    We begin a small mini-series about widows here, based on verses 3-16 of chapter 5. I focus on the need for children to take care of older parents, and how you don’t have to say “I deny the faith” in order to deny the faith.

  8. 931 Giving Honor to the Older Generation (1 Timothy 5:1-2)

    Paul reminds Timothy that the congregation is a household. I take the time to look at the emphasis on honoring and respecting our parents. Towards the end I give three answers to varying situations in parent-to-child relationships.

  9. 930 Proper Teaching Matters for Salvation (1 Timothy 4:16)

    Paul spent so much time instructing Timothy, because it mattered for his salvation, as well as the salvation of his hearers. You can live a righteous life, if you truly desire to.

  10. 929 A Fire that Cannot be Stopped (Acts 8:1-4)

    When severe persecution broke out against the early followers of Yeshua (in Jerusalem), they scattered throughout the land of Israel, but they never stopped sharing the good news of the King and his Kingdom.

  11. 928 The Words Hagah and Meletaō are Important (1 Timothy 4:15)

    In his first letter to Timothy, Paul encourages meditation. What exactly does that mean? We should delight in the Torah (Law), and meditate upon it day and night.

  12. 927 The Doctrine of Laying on of Hands (1 Timothy 4:14b)

    One of the elementary, fundamental doctrines of Holy Scripture has to do with an elder laying his holy hands on someone else, in order to pass along something of spiritual benefit. Timothy had this done to him, but it had an old history in the Hebrew faith.

  13. 926 Spiritual Gifts and Transferring of Spirits (1 Timothy 4:14a)

    Timothy had a supernatural gift, given to him by two means. Listen to learn how there are good spirits and bad spirits, and that it matters who you “hang” with.

  14. 925 Saul Who? [Background on the Apostle Paul] (Acts 8:1-3)

    Before moving into Acts 8, we need to discuss the figure mentioned in both Acts 7:58 and 8:1, Saul of Tarsus. Who was this man, and why was he so bent on binding and even killing followers of Yeshua?

  15. 924 After the Reading there Must be a Teaching (1 Timothy 4:13b)

    When a pastor gets behind a pulpit each week, he must give a teaching. His sermon should be centered around a text more than a title. If there is no genuine teaching, there will be no genuine growth. A big part of Yeshua’s ministry was his teaching.

  16. 923 Public Reading of the Torah is Required (1 Timothy 4:13a)

    Paul told Timothy to give attention to ‘the reading.’ The reading of what? This sermon reaches back to the book of Exodus to find the answer to that question. Nehemiah 8:8 is capitalized on.

  17. 922 A Young Person Can be a Holy Example (1 Timothy 4:12-16)

    Sometimes children and youth get overlooked, but Paul reminded young Timothy not to be discouraged by this, but to walk in holiness and set a good example for everyone.

  18. 921 Training in Holiness Profits Much (1 Timothy 4:6-11)

    Paul encourages Timothy to train, labor, and strive for the life to come. The ascetics focused mainly on the body, Timothy (and us) was to focus more on the spiritual person.

  19. 920 The False Teachers Commanded Against Eating Meat (1 Timothy 4:3b-5)

    Next to Acts 10, 1 Timothy 4 is the most popular Bible verse used in attempt to nullify the dietary law in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. Do modern preachers interpret it correctly though?

  20. 919 The Demise of a Merciful Martyr (Acts 7:54-60)

    In spite of a brilliant defense, Stephen suffers the death penalty (unjustly). The human tendency is to get fighting mad at those who threw their stones, but wait to see how Stephen reacted.

  21. 918 Why Did the False Teachers Forbid Marriage? (1 Timothy 4:2-3a)

    I talk about a seared conscience and the need to repent TODAY, then I begin looking at the historical reason some false teachers forbade marriage. But is it always wrong to forbid marriage?

  22. 917 Some People Will Lose Their Salvation (1 Timothy 4:1)

    After writing about a common confession (everyone in the assembly agrees upon) Paul reminds Timothy not to fret about those leaving the assembly; the Spirit of Yahweh promised this would happen. We must learn to guard our heart and mind from deceitful spirits.

  23. 916 Should the Name Yahweh be Used in the NT? (Joel 2:32; Rom. 10:13)

    Here I answer the fourth reason on the CSBible website as to why they discontinued any use of the name Yahweh in their updated translation. Manuscript detail, Older Testament primacy, prophecy, and Yeshua’s ministry are all covered in this lesson.

  24. 915 Why I’ve Switched from HCSB to LSB (Ex. 3:15)

    I’ve used the HCSB from 2004 to early 2026, but I’ve recently made a change in my primary Bible to the Legacy Standard Bible. Why? I begin to look at the CSBible website, answering their reasons for abandoning their 656 uses of the name Yahweh in the Old Testament.

  25. 914 The Culmination of Rejected Saviors (Acts 7:44-53)

    Brother Stephen brings things to a head as he finishes his own defense of the holy place, Moses, and the Torah. In the end, he turns the accusation against him back on whom it belongs, the Jewish leaders. They were following in the footsteps of many Israelites of old, rejecting the prophet who…

    more

  26. 913 The Rise and Fall of the HCSB (Ex. 3:15)

    I first look at different Bible translation methodologies (across the spectrum) and then turn my attention to the 2004 HCSB and its use of the name Yahweh in key passages.

  27. 912 Learning and Growing vs. Knowingly Disobeying (Ex. 16:22-29; Num. 15:32-36)

    There is a HUGE difference between someone who disobeys because they are new and learning, and someone who knows and turns their face away from what Yahweh says.

  28. 911 The Oracles that Guide our Lives (Acts 7:38-43)

    The Prophets always called the people of Israel back to Moses, because it was Moses that was given the Living Oracles from Yahweh on the Mountain.

  29. 910 Two Prophets Rejected by Israel (Acts 7:33-37)

    In the same way Israel of old had rejected Moses, Israel in the first century rejected Yeshua, and Stephen called them out on it.

  30. 909 How Yeshua Was Taken UP (1 Timothy 3:16g)

    The finale to the mini-sermon-series on the creedal hymn. I center in on Yeshua’s resurrection, how he obtained it, where he is at in heaven, some of what he is doing, and a few other things throughout. I do talk about his sonship, and throw a little bit of biblical cosmology in the mix. Hope it...

  31. 908 Yeshua Preached, and Many Believed Upon Him (1 Timothy 3:16f)

    Before Yeshua ever died and resurrected to eternal life, people were believing upon him from various nations. This sermon focuses on some key texts in the Gospel of John that explain what exactly Paul meant when he said Yeshua was “believed on in the world.”

  32. 907 Yeshua: Preacher to All Nations (1 Timothy 3:16e)

    Yeshua was a preacher, and he did not just preach to Israelites (lost or found). Listen to learn about some important concepts in the gospel of Matthew, surrounding the “Sermon on the Mount.”

  33. 906 It Costs to be a Disciple of Yeshua (Luke 14:25-35)

    This was the sermon Yahweh laid upon my heart to give for the first day of Unleavened Bread (2026). It was prompted by someone recently telling me how heavy a yoke it must be for me to think I have to keep all the commandments. I hope and pray this message is a blessing to you.

  34. 905 Isn’t Everyone Seen by Angelic Beings? (1 Timothy 3:16d)

    Continuing on in this creedal hymn I look at the phrase “seen by angels,” considering the chronology as well as a parallel text from Apostle Peter. Yeshua not only conquered sin and death, he conquered the Devil, fallen angels, and demonic spirits.

  35. 904 A Further Defense of the Savior Moses (Acts 7:29-32)

    Stephen continues to show that Moses was rejected by Israel of old, as a depiction of Yeshua being rejected by the then, current Israel. Stephen begins to bring up angels, which is interesting seeing the Sadducees (of which sect the High Priest belonged) didn’t believe in angels.

  36. 903 Two Questions I Often Receive About Passover (Ex. 12:1-14)

    I give an overview of my “Passover Conversations” for the last several years, and then I answer two questions or concerns I most often receive from those who remain inquisitive.

  37. 902 Yeshua was Vindicated in His Spirit Body (1 Timothy 3:16c)

    Yeshua of Nazareth was proven to be upright (perfectly) upon his resurrection to immortality. The future resurrection that us followers of Yeshua will partake in is our blessed hope beyond compare. I talk about Yeshua’s ability to fly in this lesson. You read that correctly.

  38. 901 Who Was Manifested in the Flesh? (1 Timothy 3:16b)

    While this sermon centers in on a key, Christological point (in this early Creed/Hymn), it begins by focusing on textual variation, criticism, and New Testament attestation.

  39. 900 We Must All Agree on the Mystery of Holiness (1 Timothy 3:16a)

    Some theology may be disagreed upon by true brothers, but some theology is absolutely essential to the brotherhood and thus salvation. The mystery of holiness is one such essential element to the faith/truth.

  40. 899 One Rejected Redeemer to Another (Acts 7:17-28)

    Stephen continues to defend himself by reminding the Jewish leaders that their brother Israelites rejected Moses right from the start. There is a tie-in here, if you read carefully, coupling Yeshua with Moses.

  41. 898 The Forefathers’ Rejection of the Savior Joseph (Acts 7:9-16)

    Stephen moves to Joseph in his defense of Yeshua, showing that Israelite history had the very blood brothers of the favored Joseph reject him and even wanted him dead. It wasn’t until a later, second visit to Egypt that Joseph revealed himself to them after much time had passed.

  42. 897 A Defense Made on the Promises to Abraham (Acts 7:2-8)

    Stephen begins his defense of the Law, Moses, Holy City, and Temple, by going back to the promises made to Abraham in Genesis 12, 15, and 17. There is much to be gleaned here and some rather technical issues, so slow down and take some time to go over each text carefully.

  43. 896 Acts 7 Intro: A Pronomian Defense (Acts 7:1-2)

    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?

  44. 895 Holding Fast to Scripture is a Mark of Nobility (Acts 17:10-12)

    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.

  45. 894 Sukkot is a Shadow of the Coming Kingdom (Col. 2:16-17; Isaiah 2; 11)

    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.

  46. 893 The Sacred Assembly is Vital for Spiritual Growth (Lev. 23:33-36)

    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).

  47. 892 Is the Feast of Booths Only for Native-Born Israelites? (Lev. 23:33-36, 39-43; Neh. 8:13-18)

    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.

  48. 891 The Feast of Ingathering: Names and Timing (Ex. 23:16b; Ex. 34:22b)

    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.

  49. 890 Why the Males are Singled Out in Keeping the Feasts (Ex. 23:17; Deut. 16:13-16; 31:10-13)

    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 -...

  50. 889 The Background and Development of the Name Jesus (Ex. 23:13; Neh. 8:17; Mt. 1:21)

    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.
