Dear sister thank you for the teachings, I just would like to share that I found in the Bible that we the Christians are intended to obey the law of Moses because we have been grafted in Israel, we have became part of Israel through the blood of Christ, our price was paid with blood price (Paul said that there is no more Jewish or gentile,...before we were with no God, no hope, excluded from Israel citizenship, but now we are part of Israel. This is why in Christ all the promises (aka blessings) of are yes and amen. As part of Israel (not part of the Jewish community that are our brothers and sisters that have their own traditions that we can share or not because some of them are not in the written Torah) we have the same rights and obligations of any members of the Israel community, so we must obey all the laws that apply to us, starting with the Shabbat, the real day of the Lord (The Sunday was established by the pagan sun worshiper emperor Constantine), because all the blessings and the curses are not for Jewish people only but to everyone alive. Blessings come by obedience to God's commandments (not to Noah's laws) and curses come by disobeying the Torah, that simple. God doesn't excuse any man or woman for sining, because the pay of sin is death. Without the law we don't have a moral rule, and everything turns subjective. In Jerusalem the apostles had a very important meeting and yes, they established for the new believers four "initial" laws (no blood, not drown animals, no idolatry & no sexual immorality Acts 15:19-20), because ...."in every city there is a synagogue where Moses is taught every single Shabbat" Acts 15:21. Nobody is born knowing how to walk, we must learn, and with the law is the same, we must learn the commandments to obey them as we learn in the weekly Shabbat. Because in the new testament synagogues all the believers were together, Jewish and non-Jewish, all of them as one in Christ, learning how to obey better our Master, Savior and God incarnated and the living Torah, Jesus Christ. Thanks again for your work and may the Lord bless you and keep you. In the love of Christ.
I'm sorry dear believer, but you are not correct. The Church does not Keep The Law To be Justified (Galatians 3:24, Romans 8:2, James 2:10), show me evidence that Sunday was established by the pagan sun worshipper. The Early Church worshipped on Sunday. (Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2; Rev. 1:10)
The Catholic church did infact change the sabbath to Sunday. They even admit that. This is something you can look up. No the Law cannot save you if you don't walk them out in spirit and truth. The sister above @luisea930 is correct. In revelations it is written those who keep the commandments and have the testimony of yeshua will be saved 🎉 " if you love me, keep my commandments" Do everything the Pharisees tell you but don't do what they do" the problem with the law is Judah , the Jews added manmade traditions and that's what Yeshua reprimanded them for. 💕 Shalom
@@SeekersMinistry please do your own research on historical sources, but here you have a clue: Justin Martyr, in the mid-2nd century, mentions "memoirs of the apostles" as being read on "the day called that of the sun" (Sunday) alongside the "writings of the prophets."[11] On 7 March 321, Constantine I, Rome's first Christian emperor, decreed that Sunday would be observed as the Roman day of rest:[12] On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed. In the country, however, persons engaged in agriculture may freely and lawfully continue their pursuits; because it often happens that another day is not so suitable for grain-sowing or vine-planting; lest by neglecting the proper moment for such operations the bounty of heaven should be lost.[13] Despite the official adoption of Sunday as a day of rest by Constantine, the seven-day week and the nundinal cycle continued to be used side by side until at least the Calendar of 354 and probably later.[14] In 363, Canon 29 of the Council of Laodicea prohibited observance of the Jewish Sabbath (Saturday), and encouraged Christians to work on Saturday and rest on the Lord's Day (Sunday).[15] The fact that the canon had to be issued at all is an indication that adoption of Constantine's decree of 321 was still not universal, not even among Christians. It also indicates that Jews were observing the Sabbath on Saturday........ Nor God, nor Jesus Christ changed any of the ten commandments in any place in the Bible, but a pagan sun worshiper roman. We keep the commandments to please our heavenly Father, because we are saved by faith, not by works, but faith without works is dead faith. Shabbat is a commandment, one of the ten words given to Moses, if we despise it doing whatever we want on that day, we are committing sin, and if we keep Sunday we are not obeying the commandment, because God's instructions are specific. Why? Because he is God, he is the Creator, the Most High. Torah was given to all Israel, to be kept as part of the covenant between God and Israel, but Israel was a mixed congregation containing even people from Egypt, and anybody who fears God and obeyed God's commandments (one law for the natural and the foreigner (Exodus 12:49 KJV [49] One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you.) and Numbers 15:29, Leviticus 24:21. God gave the covenant to Israel to bless all the earth, not only one or two tribes, because we are saved by faith in Jesus Christ Messiah, but blessed by obedience. bible.com/bible/1/exo.12.49.KJV
I would suggest that a church with strong governance that practices unjust ruling is worse than a church that lacks governance but practices right ruling. God requires right ruling and equal weights and measures. Unequal weights and measures are an abomination to Him. Just because a church has a robust government structure does not mean it practices right ruling. Many church denominations are good ol boys clubs. They only allow certain people into leadership role who know someone and toe the line. There is not real accountability in these denominations. If one pastor creates to many problems at one church, they just move them to a different town. The SBC, Catholic church, United Methodist, etc, are all examples of churches that do this. Government structure does not automatically equal right ruling. If the leaders are not using the Torah and the rest of scripture to determine right ruling in whatever comes up, then they are not practicing right ruling. Often times leaders in church use favoritism or their own denominational doctrines to determine matters, not scripture. In short I would put a higher priority on a church that practices right ruling over a church with a government structure.
As a Christian I find it hard to believe in a God who is abstract and far away from human beings. I love a God and also loves me and interacts with human beings. A Go of who eats,touches,heal sand feeds man. Jesus exactly did that and has profound meaning of religious faith.Christiamity is give and take narrative means so much meaning and understanding which generates to love and give to others service.
Overall your message is good, but you tried to connect teachings that don't connect 1. You did well to find a church that was praying for peace in Israel on 10/8. That definitely is an indicatr at how closely the leaders are following scripture. It is a shame that any church was not praying for the peace of Jerusalem when I am confident that most of the underground Christian church in Iran were. (Look for videos about them). 2. Shepherding... That's a loaded term in modern day American Christian churches. The very scriptures you used to support proper governance in the church have been used to create terrible cults. Research that as well. You are right that there should be better governance in churches and some "mainstream" denominations have that to an extent, but in some churches I have been in, that governance has been less spiritual and more of a facade for the pastor to seem accountable, or only responsible or the practical (business) functioning of the church with no real ability to counsel and make the pastor accountable. The history of the Christian church (esp. Roman Catholic) laid the groundwork to how the "church" lost it's ability (and probably the desire) to "shepherd" or govern people because of the abuses of those in the church who used their positions for personal gain and not according to scripture. And the governing, as you read, is to be voluntary, not compelled. We are to submit to authority, but authority must never compel the submission (because that isn't submission, it's subjection). Where I felt like there was the disconnection is that having good, scriptural church governance doesn't really relate to churches being passionate about supporting Israel. I don't agree with the comment that you were taking scripture out of context. And I agree with what you say overall even if I don't believe the thoughts were well connected.
Many of the things you say are out of context and wrong. Bible understanding require hermeneutical analysis. Meaning you have to have proper interpretation and then you make application. You’re using Old Testament scripture to apply to 21st America. Check the scripture regarding women teaching Gods word!
Old Testament scripture contains the word of God, and the word of God is eternal. Some parts of that scripture do apply until the end of time... so what you say is not entirely correct. A lot of OT about Israel is being fulfilled now and some are even not yet fulfilled, and they WILL BE FULFILLED because God is truth and faithful to His words.
Amen the Holy Bible is the only physical source of TRUTH on earth. It's content is Spritual in God's Words which are Pure and Holy as God. Amen.

Hi, I am sincerely curious to know how you honor or observe the 8th day of the week (rendered the 8th day via Yeshua Hamashiach's Resurrection)?
I love your insight into this!! My wife and I are also from sc - appreciate your content!
Total agreement!

God requires right ruling and equal weights and measures. Unequal weights and measures are an abomination to Him.

Based on the few comments, I would be interested to know how many of the viewers watch the whole video.
Ist 8 minutes you talk about absolutely nothing.
Thought I was only one…
Ha... It's the built up ...
Like setting a angle
