That Rock Was Christ
Believers in the pre-existence of the Lord Yahushua often appeal to the words of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:4, where he says of the Israelites in the wilderness that they "all drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank of that spiritual rock that followed them; and that rock was Christ." It is argued from this that Christ himself personally accompanied the people of Israel as they journeyed through the wilderness to the Promised Land. But is this really what Paul is saying?
Making Jews Jealous: Another Look at Romans 9-11
Christians, Jew and Gentile, are to continue to take the gospel to the Jews (and also to the nations, or non-Jews; but never to the nations only). There is a remnant that will hear it, believe, and be saved. Our hope is that the natural branches will be grafted back into their own tree, along with the Gentiles now, as they see that Yahushua, and Yahushua alone, is their Messiah; and that Christians have the salvation and the fulfillment of their own promises and Scriptures from Yahuwah.
Is Yahushua also Michael the Archangel?
Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Yahushua is Michael the Archangel. I approach this topic with care and respect for those who hold to this doctrine; nevertheless, the aim of this study is to call their attention to the problems that one faces when trying to defend this doctrine.
Hard Facts
Deuteronomy 6:4: "Hear, O Israel! Yahuwah our Elohim is one!"
Fellow Inheritors of the Kingdom
Edwin Lutzer is a fabricator of errant interpretations. Scripture immediately exposes his book title, One Minute After You Die, as fraudulent. What really happens when we die?
Fathered by Yahuwah
Yahushua was brought into existence by Yahuwah in a fabulously unique way. What confidence all of this should inspire!
Does Yahushua's Use of ''I Am'' Mean He Is Yahuwah?
Yahushua from the beginning claimed to be the promised Messiah. He never claimed to be Yahuwah, the God of Israel (who is also the God of Yahushua!). He never claimed to be “The Great I AM” of the OT. He did, however, repeatedly claim to be the unique Son of Yahuwah.

Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread
Matthew 6:8-11: The bread the Saviour is talking about is spiritual bread. Just as physical bread gives physical life, spiritual bread strengthens us spiritually and leads to eternal life! Are you receiving your daily bread?
Can Yahuwah be the High Priest?
Hebrews 6-9 must not be forced into the later mold of orthodox beliefs about Christ’s Divinity. There is no indication here of anyone other than man Messiah Yahushua fulfilling the most important role of priest and mediator, yet in a New Covenant format. When we allow the Scripture to flow forth from its Hebrew source we can indeed drink of fresh and living waters.
Are You Washed in the Blood of the Lamb?
The unvarnished truth is that believers in times past possessed a much more biblical understanding of the importance and, I contend, the absolute necessity of water baptism than do the overwhelming majority of professing believers today!
The Truth that Sets Us Free
How it is that the true gospel of the coming Kingdom of Yahuwah can actually change lives? How is it that this particular message is the one by which salvation comes?
Daniel the Prophet
We all know the captivating story of Daniel in the lions’ den. But have you heard the real ending?
The Myth that Prevents a Human Messiah: Being Human is Not Good Enough
It is a fact that few on earth accept Yahushua as a legitimate human being with a core human center and personality. The New Testament church did, but as we know, within 100 years Greek philosophy and human speculation began perverting and replacing biblical monotheism and turned Yahushua into a second “God-person.” Why did this happen?
