It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
Twisting mathew is the linch pin of their entire argument. When theres a massive avalanche of scriptures in the new testament disproving their ideals. In retort they bring the validity of Paul into questioning with wild theories of the new testament being messed with, while at the same time saying the old testament is infallible under the same scrutiny they apply to the new testament to hold their position. Its sad.
Exactly. If you don't accept the writings of the apostle Paul, you kind of have to throw out most of the New Testament. Luke affirms Paul I'm Acts. You'd have to discard Acts and Gospel of Luke, which is unfortunate since those are neatly written in the style of a historian. Peter affirms Paul (2 Peter 3:16) so probably can't trust Peter either. That calls into question the Gospel of Mark, and Matthew. John Mark was a close associate of Peter, and the gospels of Mark and Matthew share many of the same passages. So, how can they know anything about "Yeshua" if they can't trust the New Testament writers?
@@dre5773 Shalom. Significance of "efficacy" is as the Apostles said, "A lamb slain from the foundations of the earth". For this reason, Messiah's blood is not worthy of comparison with anything else with regards to "efficacy". Typological comparison with the atonement of bulls and goats is obviously fine and good (like some Christians do when eating the Passover lamb or in eating of the bread and wine in remembrance); however, typology would never get us saying that any work of man comes anywhere near the power of the blood of the Lord of Glory who Romans and Galatians say is "the righteousness of God apart from the law". I'll post my reply to the Prof so you can understand the position of Reformed Theology / Protestantism in this regard. His blood is VERY significant: Shalom RLS. The view of Reformed Theology is that the Temple could only atone for the sins that God winked at (Acts 17:30), upon the sinner receiving knowledge of and acting accordingly (Lev 4,5 Num 15,16). That was it. Judaism, Eastern Orthodox and Catholicism have various nuances in this regard but are of similar opinion. In Protestantism (by and large), when talking of all sins in the context of the earthly Temple service, this has historically been believed to be in relation to sins of ignorance alone. "The sacrifices of the Old Testament were made for the expiation of sins, but they were not able to take away the guilt of deliberate and presumptuous sins. The Day of Atonement, as it was appointed by God, was designed to cover sins of ignorance, not willful defiance. Christ’s sacrifice was required to address the full scope of human sin, including willful and deliberate transgressions." (John Owen, The Death of Death in the Death of Christ, Chapter 11) I know this is a great assumption of “all sins” in the context of the Yom Kippur ceremony, but Owen and other Reformed Theologians don’t lightly make this interpretation. They believed that the author of Hebrews taught the limited nature of Temple atonement not just in terms of its yearly repetitive nature, but effectiveness as well. These two scriptures are compelling in this regard: Heb 9:7 but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people. Heb 10:26-27 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Hope this makes sense. Blessings
@@dre5773 Galatians 3:13..Messiah redeemed us from the CURSE of the Law.. Deuteronomy 21:23….the blood of animals could cover sin but COULD NOT conquer death.. without the blood of the Messiah, there would be no resurrection..Got Torah Got Truth
I don't think Rob Solberg would agree that the Law was designed as a trap. The Bible speaks of the Law with poetic love language. David calls it perfect. The psalms sing about it with praise. Paul praises the Law that shows us what sin is. You can choose to look at the Torah law as legalistic anchor or as a guide and moral compass. Thanks for the name drop in the video Dr. SOLBERG, was fun to see you pay attention to your video comments.
@AdamPlayFarms The Law in the sense of what God expects of our heart? Yeah it is good. But much was added due to the hardness of our hearts, not because it was part of the original design. The Mosaic Law is simply an expression of a greater Law of the Spirit.
Peter called the old cov Law a Yoke that didn't belong around the disciples necks. Paul called the Law BONDAGE ! In Acts 15 the Apostle's and Elders made the decision that NO Gentile Believer had to be circumcized or follow the Old Cov Law ! PERIOD ! Case Closed. You nutty Law and sabbath keeping nuts need to learn the Covenant we are under today, it's called THE NEW COVENANT. It's a BETTER Covenant God made of being under GRACE and not LAW.
I know this is not your reason for posting videos like this, but I appreciate the challenges you are proposing because it helps us to refine our theology. I agree that animal sacrifice is not required now that we have the sacrifice of Christ. This is detailed in the book of Hebrews, and it seems to be the only commandment that has changed because of the change in priesthood. We now have a better Priesthood and a better sacrifice. However, the other commandments teach us about holiness and living in a way that pleases God. They teach us how to worship God and be separate from the world. The commandment to offer sacrifices for sin is no longer necessary because we have a better sacrifice now. But this doesn’t remove our obligation to obey God in other areas.
The capital punishment laws haven't changed? Giving your wife poison to drink if you suspect her of adultery? Marrying your brother's widow & impregnating her to make sure the family line continues?
Also Jesus kept all the holy days, they were put in place as celebrations, simply put, we don't keep the law TO BECOME saved, we keep the law BECAUSE we are saved
Has anyone known someone that changed their mind about the Hebrew Roots movement and left it And returned to the simplicity of the Christian faith? It would also be very interesting to find out the long-term beliefs and response of children raised in these homes.
I did. I'm still nervous to talk to my family about it and I'm an adult... Mostly because I know they will fear for my salvation. Which is crazy to realize.
I so agree with your teaching. I've noticed that defending the Torah has led some to minimize and lead away from the power and purpose of the Gospel not towards it.
@timgilroy1976 Jesus is the word or debar (Hebrew) or logos (Greek). Law is Torah (Hebrew) or Nomos (Greek). Please stop bearing false witness about Jesus being the Law. Oy!
@@_shaylamarr. You totally do not understand the Bible. You first have to know who Israel is and most don’t. Torah is His RULES to HIS people. He says His Torah is easy and burden is light. You are saying He is a liar🤷♀️ Sorry but that is the truth. He has the command to keep HIS Shabbat sacred, not catholic sungod Sunday sacred like ALL the mainstream churches do. That’s one broke. And that is the commands that He says He knows His people by. You need to read Deut 14, Lev 11 and Lev23. He did NOT say His laws are null and void . People are missing it badly. Where does it say laws are gone?? Nowhere. Where does it say we can not eat abominable pig? Nowhere. That verse they use has nothing to do with food. BUT they don’t read the explanation of the verse further down which EXPLAINS it. He died on the tree for our SINS, so we will turn away from them AND He came for the Lost Sheep of israel. Watch Torah Family w/ Steve Moutria with Bible in hand. You need to know who you are to realize what you are to follow. It’s not legalism. It is OBEDIENCE to our Father.
I'm not a Christian. Actually the label Christian only means one thing today, hypocracy. Scripture refers to me as Yah's people. The place that Torah has in my life is that it is instructional. Yah is my authority and the focus of my life and worship. Now, Yeshua is my high priest and my King. Yah, Yeshua and Scripture all have authority over me. In this period beyond the Aaronic priesthood, I'm not sacrificing animals but I'm not eating pigs either. According to Scripture, pigs are unclean designed to be scavengers. Peter's vision referred to gentiles not pigs. I observe Sabbath because Yah set that day apart at creation not at Moses. Christians want to focus on arguments instead of authenticity and abiding in Messiah. 'Torah observers" abide in the written instead of the living and that is very obvious.

“Genuinely seeking the truth and willing to be honest” - 100%! In my experience, most of these people suffer from a spirit of religion and self-righteousness. You cannot have a genuine conversation with them because they are not humble and truly seeking. They think they’ve found the “key” to it all.
Your question is very specific and certainly elucidates what was accomplished on the cross, our salvation. We are children of promise, not Sinai. The taskmaster, the Torah, was removed and we may come into our inheritance. We are free. Now let us use that freedom, not to indulge our flesh, but to serve and love each other and do the will of our Father.
I dare you to read the Bible. Nobody was justified by blood of animals. If it wasn't for Jesus, you would be still dead in your sins. There was no animal sacrifice for transgressions that lead to death!!! His question has NO biblical ground.
Great job brother. Ngl, as you speak, I can imagine Paul in the synagogue preaching and debating the gospel. God’s given you a great gift of teaching for His glory and I’m fortunate to have found this channel. I’ve learned a lot and hope to learn more. Much love and be encouraged
Paul was never in the synagogue’s 🕍, I guarantee you that, they would throw him out of there. God gave the Torah to the Jewish and he told them that would be forever. So, if Paul would come in to the synagogue, they would tell him right away, get out of here that Pagan man made story is for you, not for us.!!
@@jesusvazquez1455 I take it that you don’t.

Anyone who says Animal Sacrifice should be done, does not believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross to PAY for our sins as the sacrificial lamb.His death was the FINAL sacrifice. It is mind blowing this is even a discussion. Actually blasphemous that someone would even say yes to continue animal sacrifices.
His point is that what Jesus said in Mt 5 happened before his death and Resurrection. Meaning that his statement included animal sacrifice as a jot or tittle as it hadn't stopped yet when he said it.
@@andrewrackliff8223 That's true, he was still speaking to those under the Old Covenant which wasn't taken away until the inauguration of the New Covenant with his death and resurrection..
@@dre5773 his question didn't prove anything based on their comments because his whole response was the fact that their comments was not in sequence with his actual question. Yet he was able to counter their rebuttals all with the same responses. You can't get away from the fact that we are no longer under Moses Law. Jesus himself is against the law by NOT being from the tribe of Levi. According to the law, ONLY the tribe of Levi were to be priest in Israel.
@@dre5773 the Bible is very clear and this is very simple but many won't accept the scriptures. I'll give you about 3 that complement one another. “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 7:12 “For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” Galatians 5:14 “If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:” James 2:8 If you research every nation God put judgment on,(outside of Israel), you'd see it was always because how they treated one another (especially the poor). It was NEVER because of them failing to obey the sabbath or Moses law.
@@siranthonybrownpodcast Excellent points. I'll provide some scriptures for my points. Regarding love, God has a clear way for us to express this love to each other. Now please read this scripture and I know the immediate response are "His commandments are to love him and love one another" but isn't it redundant in this passage if we replace "commandments " with "love"? 1 John 5:1-3 KJV [1] Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. [2] By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. [3] For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. What law is this referring to? SIN:1 John 3:4 KJV [4] Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. As for only judging based on love, see here in Revelations 2 Christ is against the practice of eating things sacrificed to idols and fornication...what does eating thing sacrificed to idols have to do with loving one another? Revelation 2:14 KJV [14] But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication. Now, if sin still exists fo we need repentance? If so what exactly is repentance and is that "work"?
I pray the Father brings you clarity, R.L., and causes you to be a responsible and truthful teacher of Scripture, not taking Scripture out of context and cherry-plucking, but bringing it all in according to the definitions and plainly stated texts. May Abba bless you.

Sean: repent for denying the blood of Yeshua (and teaching that he is slaughtering animals in heaven), rejecting the truth that Yeshua is YHVH, and promoting secret knowledge in the form of apocryphal books. These errors are much more egregious than Rob's.
the apostle paul said " you who are trying to follow the law, have fallen from grace." galatians 5:4. " the only thing that counts, is faith expressing itself through love." " christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes." romans 10:4. how much clearer can it be?
Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
@racerx4152 I would check your Bible again. Galatians 5:4 does not say that. If you are going to use quotation marks, it should be an actual accurate quote. If it's just your interpretation of a text, then state it as such.
Gentiles were never under the Law. How could any Gentile today, milennia after the Old Covenant passed away, want to be put under the condemnation of the Law.
@@SSNBN777 If they joined with Israel then they took part in the laws. Just for clarity thou shalt not murder, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself were laws putting us under condemnation?
@dre5773 yes. Because ... the "tables of the covenant" are the ministration of death. One mistake and you are guilty of the whole law. Good luck "keeping" it.
@@dre5773- because they bring us to the end of ourselves because on in and of ourselves, we cannot fulfill those. Who can love their neighbor as themselves fully? Jesus took these laws and pushed us to the end of our own sinfulness by expanding these laws not just to actions but heart motives. Mosaic law forces us to see our weakness and our flesh tries to say I can do it, I can fulfill it, I can please God by my own efforts. But in the end one is condemned because where you fall in one part of the law, you have fallen in all of it.
@SSNBN777 2 days ago Gentiles were never under the Law. *And yet, God encourages the strangers/Gentiles of Isaiah 56 to embrace his Sabbath and partake in his covenant, and he promises them a name in his house better than sons and daughters (better than the Jews essentially). This prophecy is made in preparation for Matthew 21. This is the nation that Christ said would receive the kingdom he is taking away from the Jews who would bring forth the fruits in their due season, meaning they would keep the Old Covenant where the Jews failed to do so. It’s also why Christ quotes Isaiah 56 in Matthew 21, making it clear his house would be a house of prayer for all people, meaning he was opening the covenant up to more than the Jews. Also, there is nothing in torah preventing a Gentile from being circumcised and observing torah accordingly. Even before the days of Moses, Jacob’s children required the men of sheckem to be circumcised if they wanted to dwell among them, this would have made them obligated to the covenant which Paul was fully aware of in Galatians 5:2-3. Remember, Paul said that the circumcised were debtors to do the whole law, and Paul was circumcised, and circumcised a half Greek Gentile Timothy in Acts 16:1-3. It’s no different than the Strangers in Ezekiel 44 who will be required to be circumcised in heart and in flesh, the two types of torah circumcision, before God will allow them to enter the future temple of the restored Davidic kingdom, suggesting the restriction placed on circumcission of Gentiles in Acts 15 was never intended to be a perminant provision, else the pollution God is complaining about in Ezekiel 44 will never be resolved. You continue: How could any Gentile today, milennia after the Old Covenant passed away, want to be put under the condemnation of the Law. *That’s a problem if you believe God is the single most merciless being in all the universe, but if God lives up to his promises in the mercy clause of the law in Exodus 20:6 and elsewhere, then those who make a stink about the condemnation of the law are just making a stink that has no real punch. In fact, speaking contrary to the law is the greater danger, because God in Isaiah 8:20 says there is no light in people who do that. Do you know why Christ was the light of the world in the gospels, because he taught according to the law and testimony in fulfillment of Isaiah 8:20, intent on binding up the testimony and sealing the law among God’s disciples to fulfill Isaiah 8:16. Now, Isaiah 8:16 is an idea coming from Deuteronomy 6, where the Jews would bind up writings of the law to their right hand and forehead, because the seal of God is his law. Notice in Revelation 14, the mark of the beast is also placed in the right hand and forehead, and that is what you get when you follow people out from under the seal of God’s law identified in Isaiah 8:16. So, the law is not your enemy, it is God’s seal, and it is how he protects you. But, if you don’t want that protection, he will not stop you from opening yourself up to receive the mark of the beast instead in your right hand and forehead. But, I don’t recommend it, because God isn’t going to be happy with those who do not heed the warning of the third angels message in Revelation 14. In fact, those who continue to transgress God’s law and break his everlasting covenant, he says in Isaiah 24:5-6 that the curse will devour the earth for this reason, the inhabitants will be burned and few men left. You see, those who get the victory and stand on the sea of glass in Revelation 15 are not turning away from Moses and his teachings, but they sing the song of Moses and the Lamb. Moses and the Lamb are the two prophets of Deuteronomy 18. Christ was the prophet like Moses, and so a true understanding of the law is one that unites with the gospel, but people like Paul came in wanting to lure God’s people out from under his law in Romans 6:14, violating Isaiah 8:20 in the process. Why would Paul do this, because Paul said he has a “messenger of Satan” in 2Cor 12:7, just one chapter after 2Cor 11 where he tells you not to marvel that Satan’s ministers are transformed into ministers of righteousness. Go read it for yourself, it’s not like Paul was trying to hide from what he really was, but Christians don’t typically want to hear that Paul was a threat to Christianity. He was a Pharisee, and Christ said of the Pharisees that they were of their father the devil in John 8:44, that they make their procelites into twice the child of hell than themselves in Matthew 23:15, they refuse to enter his kingdom in Matthew 23:13, and that they don’t have the righteousness required to enter his kingdom in Matthew 5:20. That has always made me wonder how a Pharisee like Paul was going to get himself and his messenger of Satan into the kingdom of God in light of Christ’s warning in Matthew 5:20. And when Paul blurted out late in his career that he was still a Pharisee in Acts 23:6, he not only brought his so called conversion to Christianity into serious question, but he also brought the entire body of his doctrine under the scrutiny of Christ’s warning in Matthew 16 to beware the doctrine of the Pharisees. So, should Christians follow Paul out from under the protection of God’s law in Romans 6:14. I wouldn’t recommend it. I think the Savior is right in his assessment of Pharisees like Paul. They are far more trouble than they are worth. Christ on the other hand seems to think the law will stay in tact in Matthew 5:18 until the prophetic sign he gives there is fulfilled which is “Till heaven and earth passes”. And John 21:1 shows us that heaven and earth doesn’t pass away until well into our future, because it hasn’t all been fulfilled yet.
In my opinion, no one can ( or should) say that they "keep" Torah. Most Ministries that I have been expose to focus on Sabbath, feassts/festivals, and dietary laws. They really don't keep Torah. Not even close
Your interpetation of "until heaven and earth pass away" matches up with how Luke puts it: 'And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. ' Luke 16:17
The original question only works on Christians who are ignorant of Hebrew and the scriptures. Atone for what kinds of "sin"? Chet, Avon, or Pesha? There are multiple words in Hebrew for sin not to mention the fact that sacrifices were only offered for unintentional sins. There was no sacrifice commanded in the Torah for intentional sins. Also, Paul was commanded by James to take a vow and make the required offering in the Temple in Acts 21 to prove that he "kept the law" which, according to the text, he did perform. This was clearly a Nazirite vow based on the text because it specifically mentions that they had to "shave their heads". It's quite a simple task to see what the offering was for someone who completed a Nazirite vow (Num 6) which, by the way, included a sin, a burnt, and a peace offering. Three animals. It would be comical at best for Paul to show up to the Temple at the completion of a Nazirite vow and say "Sorry, I believe in Jesus so I'm exempt from making the required sacrifices." So yes, they are still required although they are forbidden to be performed today without the Temple altar and the fact that they cannot be done today was already anticipated and covered in the scriptures when Solomon dedicated the Temple in 1 Kings 8. Can you explain to me why the Prince (ie Messiah) is commanded by God to offer sacrifices in the Millennial Temple in Ezekiel 45?
Hi Cracker. "Atonement is to be made once a year for *_all_* the sins of the Israelites” (Lev. 16:34) As for the prince in Ezekiel, I am far from convinced that is the Messiah. Jesus was sinless. RLS
Lev 16:34 says "for all their chatotam (chet/unintentional sins)", it does not say "all their pesheihem (pesha/intentional sins)". The fact remains that there was no sacrifice a person could bring to atone for intentional sins. As for the Prince, regardless of whether you are convinced that he is the Messiah or not, it's pretty undeniable from the text in Ezek. that sacrifices are taking place in the future Temple and God is not angry at that, in fact, He commands it in the text. Also, no comment on Paul bringing the offerings of a Nazirite after Jesus?
He addresses his thoughts on sacrifices in the millennium in this video. There's a lot going on in Acts 21. Paul is asked to go with some Jewish believers in Jerusalem taking the Nazarite vow and to help pay their way to diffuse a controversy in the Jerusalem church between gentile and Jewish believers and to correct misconceptions about himself. He does this, leading to his capture and the prophecy in v11 being fulfilled. He makes his defense in chapter 22, with nothing to say about the law at all... really just his conversion testimony. This passage is not Paul endorsing the law, but him trying to make peace with the Jews for the sake of the gospel.
This really adds nothing because I already know what Acts 21 says. The entire episode was to offer PROOF of his Torah observance and God commanded sacrifices in the Torah. Period. You can try to side-step what he did all you want by reframing it but the fact remains, he did it. If he did so without sincerity and merely as a show for man, then I'd have to say he is a charlatan and the most vile individual in the NT.
Solberg: My question to you is when did Messiah instruct His apostles to stop sacrificing in the Temple? That instruction would have been included in what they were to teach according to the "Great commission" Matt. 28. He had 40 days to instruct them on this matter. Therefore when the day of Pentecost arrived in Acts 2, do we find the 120 instructing the newly converted believers NOT TO SACRIFICE IN THE TEMPLE? The book of Hebrews to which you constantly refer obviously was not written then. So were the new believers told NOT TO PARTAKE OF OR PARTICIPATE IN ANIMAL SACRIFICES? Were they even told that they were in the "New Covenant"? Were they told that they no longer had to obey the dietary laws? The answer to all the questions above is NO! Those Jews who converted came to the Temple for Pentecost as Sabbath keeping, kosher eating, animal sacrificing Jews. These were the sacrifices offered on that day: "The festive sacrifices for the day of Pentecost were, according to Numbers 28:26-31, 'two young bullocks, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year' for a burnt-offering, along with their appropriate meat-offerings; and 'one kid of the goats' for a sin-offering." Ask yourself the same questions for the following converts in Acts. When were they told to stop animal even sin sacrifices? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Samaritans? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to Cornelius? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to Paul when he was baptized, by Ananias? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Ethiopian by Philip? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Jewish High Priest and Agrippa by Paul, late in the book of Acts? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Jews in the Synagogues, by Paul, throughout the book of Acts? Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to John's apostles in Acts 19 when they were converted? You cannot find ONE EXAMPLE of either Messiah teaching nor the Apostles teaching about the New Covenant in Acts nor about the abolishing of animal & sin sacrificing. Are you using the book of Hebrews only, ONE WITNESS., to support your position? Hebrews was on of the last books approved and added to the Bible. We do not even know it's author. Shouldn't we require or 3 witnesses to establish a matter, and this witness should be closer to the ministry of the Apostles, as they were filled with the Holy Spirit. Also, if the apostles had taught the new believers not to offer animal sacrifices, they would have swiftly be in trouble with the Jewish authorities based upon: Hebrews 10:28 Anyone who disobeys the Law of Moses is put to death without any mercy when judged guilty from the evidence of two or more witnesses ---- So the challenge to YOU is to PROVE that the Apostles taught others to stop animal & sin sacrificing but somehow escaped condemnation from Gamaliel & the Sanhedrin in Acts 5, and all the other Jewish officials, King Agrippa, The High Priest, and enemies even of Paul, no one ever charged them with teaching Jews not to offer animal or sin sacrifices. Jesus NEVER taught it. The Apostles NEVER taught that animal and sin sacrifices were discontinued due to the death of Messiah. Our EYE WITNESSES are that the Jewish leadership never accused them of teaching what you are assuming that they taught. P.S. Jesus never used the words "New Covenant" at the Last Supper. Check the Greek. He only said "this is the blood of the covenant." The word NEW was interpolated in the text as early as Marcion's texts. Bibles with good foot notes will admit that the word "new" was added to these texts. That is also why you never hear the Apostles telling anyone that they are in the "new covenant" in the book of Acts.
Have you heard of the book “The Torah as Narrative”? Or “Reading Moses seeing Jesus”? Those books as well as your ministry has been very helpful for me. Thanks for your work
Great video Professor Rob!! This is not only a salient apologetic but is an incredible pause for worship of our Great God and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ for what He did laying down His life that we might live!
We’re not to forsake assembling ourselves together, so who decides what day we gather? And of course, the answer is our maker. Does He not knows what’s best. We are not to kill, committed adultery , have idols , worship other gods and within those 10 Commandments is the sabbath so why would we by His grace keep them all “ except” for the weekly Sabbath . Why is it written smack dab in the middle of l the 10 Commandments. These commandments are NOT Levitical ceremonial laws, their principles and standards for all humanity. Blessings
Zechariah 14 vers 16 and 21 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. 21 And every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holy to the LORD of hosts, so that all who sacrifice may come and take of them and boil the meat of the sacrifice in them. And there shall no longer be a traderg in the house of the LORD of hosts on that day. Zechariah 14 vsrs 16 and 21
Unfortunate that the Pastor should be induced to go to such lengths to clear up so many misunderstandings of what was, after all, a very clearly-phrased question.
Robsta, you are an inspiration brother! You've taught me so much personally , specifically on how to conduct oneself in the midst of fiery opposition! Keep on punching for the Lord and the TRUTH brother, don't quit, finish the round!!! Bless ya heaps! Al.
This was interesting. I’m from a mixed Jewish and Christian background, but I’m just Jewish (Reform/Conservative). Even among Jews who believe in a Temple in the future, there isn’t a clear consensus on the sacrifices. Some view it as a House of Prayer for all people (Isaiah type) thing, while others think it’ll all be reinstituted.
@ChrisIsJewish Jesus restores all things (Acts 3:19-21) including the Temple/sacrifices after he defeats Israel's enemies. Zechariah 14:1-5 ---> Zechariah 14:20-21 The Levitical Covenant is forever. Jeremiah 33:17-22

Nowhere in scripture does it state that animal sacrifices will be memorials in the future. People point to EZ but it calls the animal sacrifices sin sacrifices for Israel. It does not say they are memorials. There will be no animal sacrifices in future. People reading into scripture and misunderstanding it.
@@kmountain5533 There are no scriptures that state animal sacrifices was or will ever be memorials. The book of EZ in various places talks about animal sacrifices for sin for Israel. But it doesnt say they are memorials as people try to insert into those passages. According to the book of Hebrews Jesus was the final once for all sin sacrifice. There will never be animal sacrifices for sin ever again.
The old covenant required 100% obedience and if just one command was violated the entire covenant was broken. Also, will the torah-keepers stone adulterers??? Cant have it both ways. The new covenant law is fulfilled in loving one another. Period.
Yes, there are some preaching this very thing. That the law of the land (U.S., of course) should be Torah, including death penalty for things not punishable by law currently, such as adultery, homosexuality, etc. They even teach that we should be executing these punishments now, if we are in positions of government. Basically, torah observant (interpreted by whoever's in charge) Christian Nationalism.
Kat, your relative is correct. The foundation of what we call the Catholic/ Christian faith, aka the Roman Catholic Church, at its core inner circle are Satan worshipers. They have been from the start of the RCC in the 3rd and 4th century.... I have a list going of various practices of the RCC and have compared it to a practice by the various pagans. and guess what? 1 for 1 on all accounts, they are the same. Here is just a small list of what both the RCC and pagans do that are the same and none of which are in the Bible: Drink wine and say it is literally the blood of their God (transubstantiation), have a Trinity, worship their God on Sunday, worship the birth of their God on 12/25, have a worship day on the 1st Sunday after the 1st new moon after the spring equinox, do things in secret, murder people who go against them, sexualize children and women, have a leader who speaks for and is the authority on earth, for their God...... That is the short list! The RCC founders hijacked the true Biblical Faith that was started by Christ and the Apostles and early biblical followers. They used the power of the Roman empire to weld their way in to control. They then twisted scripture and played a game with the minds of people, many who could not read nor write, or they could not read the language the bible was written in. The RCC at one point made it illegal to even have a Bible. How's that for honer and integrity? Does that sound like a foundation that you would like to have? Christ said the Anti Christ was already at work and that many would come. Many did, they are called Popes. You want to know the true faith of the Bible? Read it without any input from a Catholic or Protestant church's doctrine laid over top. Look up the meaning of words and the truth shines! Just my 2 cents. Many Blessings! Yah Bless!
Great video. The two covenants just can't mix. You either keep one or keep the other. I didn't understand the last part about expressely forbade the drinking of blood though...would a Jewish Eucharist include that, or are we talking about about Christ's blood symbolised by the wine?
I love your methodical logical style, backed up by clear scripture. I have always understood that a third temple will be built under the guidance of the Antichrist and that the sacrificial system will be reinstituted by religious Jews and that this is stopped half way into the tribulation when the Antichrist declares himself god and places his image in the temple. Mind you I have always felt a bit uncomfortable with this position as it seems surprising that God would allow the once for all sacrifice of His son to be insulted by allowing this to happen ( but hey, blasphemy happens every day, so the may allow it). I never would have considered this being a part of the millennial reign but I do believe that representatives of every nation will desire to participate in the major memorial festivals in Jerusalem each year ( Passover, Pentecost and booths) to remember all that God has done for all people (not just the Jews).
So when are you going to break your echo-chamber on this particular topic and have a Torah-observant Christian who affirms fundamental doctrines (Trinity, salvation by grace through faith apart from works, etc.) on your channel? We’re still waiting. I have recommended some potential candidates in the comment section of your videos before.
The concept of a Jewish Eucharist makes me chuckle. Like... Y'all are still looking at the shadows and we're sitting here going, yeah, there IS a Jewish Eucharist, He's Christ. Everything they keep going back to the old covenant for has already been brought forth. Great question and explanation of the question professor. Thanks.
@timgilroy1976 yes the moon is new because that's the name we give the concept. However, if you're implying the concept of "new" is always the same because the word "new" is used in a different context, that wouldn't logically follow and is called a word/concept fallacy.
@timgilroy1976 in Ecclesiastes, it's important to remember that it's poetic literature so it should be interpreted metaphorically more than anything. "Nothing new under the sun" is referring to how the same problems happen over and over in history.
@timgilroy1976 in Jeremiah, vs 32 gives you some meaning to "new", it says "not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers"... So we can at least demonstrate that the new covenant is not according to the one before. That's one part that's new. There seems to be two main ways to conceive of new 1. Completely original, nothing like it before 2. Restored to an original state of perfection (as in a reference to the thing before it) See the difference? Either there's something before (like new moon) or not (like a new idea). There's likely other ways that new is conceived of, so those two aren't exhaustive, just the first two I think of in the examples we're talking about.
@timgilroy1976 okay you're starting to get off track of "new". Do you agree or disagree that there's multiple concepts tied up in the word "new"? If so, wouldn't there be multiple concepts tied up in "commandments"? I guess all this does come around to the original point of the video regarding animal sacrifice and the old covenant vs new covenant, which would be interesting to touch on again.
@timgilroy1976 that question presupposes a ton of theological concepts. I think the question is a bit irrelevant because it brings in arguments about millennialism/amillennialism, interpretation of prophecy that might or might not be fulfilled yet... I think for the scope of the discussion it would be best to stick with what we know right now, which the question is are we supposed to do animal sacrifice now?
I knew several people that took this path and ended up apostates because they couldn't reconcile the questions you asked, so instead of embracing Christianity, they rejected it for Judaism.
A question I haven't EVER seen addressed by Torah observers or otherwise: By law, obedience was to receive blessing. Perfect obedience = perfect blessing under the blood oath contract of 'Torah'. HOW WAS JESUS CURSED?
Here is where I disagree with the HRM movement. They do not have a good arguement for the keeping of the entirety of the law of Moses. While I do think the law plays a part, I acknowledge that there is absolutely a change in the law, out of necessity, with the change of the priesthood and Hebrews 7:12 teaches us this. This change in the priesthood justifies, out of necessity, a change in the law and it is the Levitical priesthood has now been changed to a better priesthood through our Messiah in the order of Melchizedek. This does away with the animal sacrificial system to atone for our sins.
@@RestorationofallThings The problem with the HRM is their theology, they believe you must keep all the Jewish rituals of the law for salvation. There is a problem with this they don't actually follow what they teach, they will say you have to eat kosher and keep the Saturday Sabbath, and the feast days. But they do not uphold the full law, and Christ said in Matthew 5:17-19 that anyone who teaches against the commandments will be called least in the kingdom. This is where the HRM messes up the teach Saturday Sabbath yet are not putting people to death for breaking the Sabbath, and many other things that are not needed because you are not under the Mosaic covenant. In conclusion there is ample evidence that the HRM teaches a false theology, and it should be rejected.
@timgilroy1976 Because I believe that Ez. 43 is not saying what everyone thinks it is saying. I believe that the temple descibed in Ez. 43 was a conditional temple that will never be built. Verse 11 is the key to understanding this. "And IF they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known the design of the temple and its arrangements." Israel was not ashamed, they continued in idolatry, so this temple, which would have been temporary until Messiah would come, was not built and it never will be. There is no need for it. Even in Rev. 21:22 tells us John saw no temple in the new Jerusalem for God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
@@thedude9941 Not all of them teach that we have to keep all the Jewish rituals for salvation. There are some that have a much better understanding and know that we are not obeying the Sabbath, dietary restrictions, and the feasts for any kind of salvation. These are NOT "Jewish" rituals. The bible does not teach that. When the feasts are given, God tells them that these are HIS holy days. He never tells Israel, these are YOUR feasts. Here is where we will disagree. You see these things as completely fulfilled in Christ, but they are not. These feasts are pointing to the first and second comings of the Messiah. Christ fulfilled the spring feasts in His first coming, but He has NOT fulfulled the fall feasts. Those are fulfilled in His second coming. Israel was to be a light to the nations. However, they never did fulfill that. Deut. 4:6 tells us this. Instead, they created a religious system around God's ways. They are trying to keep these things and the law, without Christ! When you do that, then you ARE trying to keep these things unto salvation. I don't believe in keeping "Kosher" that is a Jewish invention. Eating a biblically clean diet is another thing. There are no "rituals" that need to be performed over things we eat. A biblically clean diet is for our health. Many people miss this. A careful reesearch of the animals that God said not to eat will show you that. It was a way to keep our bodies clean, after all, we ARE the temple now. I do not make this an issue, so if you choose to eat unclean animals, you will reap the consequences of that with poorer health. It is NOT salvational! God did not just tell us to stay away from certain animals for no reason or to get us to jump through theological hoops for Him. He is trying to protect us because He is a loving creator and knows His creation better than we do. And, lets face it, there are clearly animals that NONE of us eat!! I have found that the issue is mostly with the pig and shellfish.
@timgilroy1976 I’m not hardening my heart. I believe in keeping the commandments, but trough Yeshua. You can’t do it without Him! Ez. 43 would contradict what Hebrews teaches in chapter 10 which tells us that we have been sanctified through Yeshua once for all! The animal sacrifices cannot perfect us and through His offering, He is perfecting forever those who are being sanctified! I showed you verse 11 of Ez 43. That was a conditional temple and Israel was not ashamed of their idolatry. This temple was not and will not be built. It was based on a condition!
@timgilroy1976 You do realize that in the millennial kingdom we receive our resurrected bodies. Sukkot is showing you something. We now dwell in temporary dwellings(our bodies.) In the millennium we will no longer be in these bodies. Sukkot will take on a whole new meaning. We dwell with our King. That is what Sukkot is pointing you towards. Yes, the nations will come up to Jerusalem during this feast. All the feasts are eternal! There will still be offerings but NOT animal sacrifices.
I believe you answered your own question. Was the messiah spoken of in the Torah? If so then he is a part of the Torah, which part exactly? FULFILLMENT! Not exactly a change in the way you're making it sound but rather a fulfillment. As in the missing piece.
Rob, There were a lot of times Sean brought something up and you didn’t have the answer. Brother, I was TO/HR for some ten years… till The Spirit told me to “study to show myself approved”. That I did, and the two years that followed… was spent receiving the download. That is… the answers came, “And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself. Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. (HE explained the dividing of The Word of Truth using the bread parabolically.) Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him (They knew Him… as the rejected Word at Sinai); and He vanished from their sight. Sean believes The Son is at work, performing sacrifices (following the instructions found in the covenant from Horeb… which is NOT, and has nothing whatsoever to do with The Covenant of Promise), when in reality… this work (according to The Promise) was done from the foundation of the world. That’s right The Bread was broken and His blood was shed from the foundation of the world… That’s BEFORE the old covenant “instructions” were given. As they say, “but wait, there’s more.” Brother, I’d love to talk with you offering a huge connecting of dots. Please, can we talk sometime. Blessings, Don
The right answer is both yes and no. Jesus died because a sin offer was required to atone for our sins. It establishes the law itself. Because, if it is no longer needed, then Jesus did not need to die. Do we need another sacrifice for sin? No, because we already have one. So, the NT establishes the OT in this case. The quality of the question defines the quality of the answer. The problem in communication is the term Old and New. I prefer to use it as the first witness and the second witness. Keeping the commandments is the first mark of God (Deuteronomy 6:1-7) and the testimony of Jesus is the second mark of God (Exodus 13:6-9). Keeping Torah is bringing you closer to Jesus and revealing the character of God. I do not understand why this is seen as a yoke. I agree with David with his words in Psalm 19:8-11. Constantly seeking Torah is only bringing you good things. But I keep hearing this is dangerous.
Thanks Rob for another great teaching. Much can be discussed about the keeping of feasts and sacrifices in Ezekiel and Zachariah during what many believe will be the millennial kingdom. I have my own opinion on this as many others and I think that iS all anyone can really give on it. But we are in my opinion in the dispensation of grace and given at this time as well the Word of God provided by the Apostles through the Holy Spirit which is a sure Word and tells us there is no longer any requirement for animal sacrifices. I am going with the Word of God rather than speculation or opinion.
Thanks for your very informative teachings. I have encountered folks part of the HRM and it's not always pleasant. They follow Joe Fox and Bear Independent. Their arrogance and judgment are sometimes difficult to tolerate.
It's also noteworthy that Matthew 5:18 is preceded by, you guessed it, verse 17. "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them." This is what gives meaning to the words "until all is accomplished". That is: Jesus' fulfilment of them which has taken place.
It’s actually crazy that even in the comments there are people that believe animal sacrifice is still necessary. The Bible called it to a t with some of these people.
There’s no dilemma here, your question is misleading because it’s stated from a false premise. Your question was, “Does God still require animal sacrifices to atone for sin?” And followed with, “if your answer is “No, that’s no longer how we atone for sin” - which by the way is the correct biblical answer... You're acknowledging that the old covenant law is no longer in effect.” There is a difference between the atonement that’s spoken in Leviticus and the atonement offering made by Jesus. Hebrews explains this very well. The Tent that was in their midst, made by hands, was to deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body - it was never able to perfect the one serving, as to his conscience. As he says, “the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sets apart for the cleansing of the flesh.” It was the flesh that was atoned for, not their conscience. So why did they need their flesh atoned for? Because the Lord was dwelling in their midst and they would have died in their uncleanness if they were to draw near to Him in a physically unclean state. Lev. 15:31 ‘Thus you shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness, lest they die in their uncleanness when they defile My tabernacle which is in their midst.’ And not only was an atonement made for the people but also the utensils, the altar, and the Tent itself. Lev. 16:16 “And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins. And so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness.” Uncleanness could not be in the presence of the Lord, lest you die. And if the Tent was defiled, the Lord would have departed from it, which later He did and destroyed it. Thus why an atonement for sin was needed. But sadly, many of Gods people were spiritually unclean, bringing their offerings and sacrifices for an atonement, but their hearts were wicked. As Samuel declared: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying His voice? Behold, obedience is better than sacrifice, and to hearken is better than the fat of rams, for rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.” But they did not listen to His voice. “But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel would not submit to Me. So I gave them over to their own stubborn heart, to walk in their own counsels.” “This word I did command them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I shall be your God, and you be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, so that it be well with you.’ “But they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in the counsels, in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward. “From the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have even sent to you all My servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them. “But they did not obey Me or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck. They did evil, more than their fathers.” “O Jerusalem, wash your heart from evil, and be saved. Till when would your wicked thoughts remain within you?” “For My people are foolish, they have not known Me. They are stupid children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.” Their hearts were defiled and needed cleansing. Therefore, God promised He would cleanse them and give them a new heart, saying, “And I shall sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean - from all your filthiness and from all your idols I cleanse you. “And I shall give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. And I shall take the heart of stone out of your flesh, and I shall give you a heart of flesh, and I will put My Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My laws and guard My judgments and shall do them. “And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you shall be My people, and I shall be your God. And I shall save you from all your uncleannesses.”
How does He do this? Behold, the true and perfect Tent. Messiah, having become a High Priest of good things to come, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered into the Holy Place once for all, with His own blood, offered Himself unblemished to God, to cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God. Hebrews 10:14-18 “For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my Torah on their hearts, and write them on their minds,” then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.” Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.” If you are submitted to the Lord and have His Torah written upon your heart, it means you are no longer practicing lawlessness and your sins are forgiven. If this is true of you, there remains no offering for sins because you would no longer be sinning. 1 John 3:4-9 “Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin. If you are of God, you do not make a practice of sin.”
He came to destroy the works of the devil, to cleanse your heart - to give you a new heart and a new spirit and to cause you to walk in His ways by having His Torah written upon your heart. Therefore, that is why it says, “Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.” So, as it says, “let us draw near with a true heart in completeness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and our bodies washed with clean water. Let us hold fast the confession of our expectation without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy.” And then we are warned, “For if we sin wilfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce fire which is about to consume the adversaries. Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Moses dies without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment do you think shall he deserve who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified as common, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who has said, “Vengeance is Mine, I shall repay, says the Lord.” And again, “The Lord shall judge His people.” It is fearsome to fall into the hands of the living God.”
So, to answer your question. As the Master Yeshua stated, “till heaven and earth pass away, not one jot or tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.” Do you believe in the second coming of Yeshua? If so, not all has been fulfilled. The Torah and the prophets speak of His coming, and they speak of the new heaven and the new earth with the passing of the old which comes after the judgement seat of Messiah, at the end of Revelation in chapter 21, so every single word in the Torah still remains. If the temple of God was here and His presence dwelt in the temple, yes, you would be required to make an atonement for your flesh. You would be foolish not to. And how amazing would it be if God physically dwelt among us as He did before. There certainly would be no atheist alive today I’m sure of that. But don’t get that atonement confused with the atonement that Yeshua offered in cleansing our hearts. One is for the flesh and the other is for our conscience.
When it says, “For it is not possible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins,” it’s not saying the blood of bulls and goats used to take away sins and now it doesn’t, no, it never did. It’s not what the earthly tabernacle was ever for. Those offerings were never able to make perfect those who draw near which they offer continually year by year.
Mr. Solberg, God is doing an amazing work. His people all throughout the world are now beginning to turn back to Him, obeying His voice and keeping His commandments. As Moses stated, “in the last days when it comes back into your hearts to do all that I command you today, with all your heart and all your soul, then God will gather you from all the nations where He has scattered you.” According to Moses, there will be people in the last days who turn back to keeping the same Torah as he was teaching back then. So, be careful, if this is of God, you are unable to overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found fighting against God.
@keithwagnon5206 It sounds like your main point is that they had physical sacrifices for cleansing their flesh because they had a physical place where they met with God. You make a solid point. But do you follow the implications to the end? The entire Torah was written for a physical people who had a physical place where they met with God. So the Torah contains physical foods laws. And physical clothing laws. And physical feasts and cleansing rituals. All for cleansing the flesh so they could come near the place where God would meet with them. But now in Christ we are a spiritual people who come to God in spirit and truth. John 4:23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. Jesus told the woman that things were changing and they would no longer need to go to a Temple to meet with God. So the physical sacrifices were no longer needed because it wasn't necessary to cleanse the physical flesh to meet with God in spirit. Food laws are no longer necessary to be kept separate from the world. Instead, we are sanctified by truth. We are not told to physically separate ourselves from the world, but to go out into it. John 17:15-18 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. We now worship God in spirit and truth, not through the physical based commands of the Torah.
@@mr_bulow Here are a few problems to consider: 1) The ONLY biblical definition of sin is transgression of the Torah (Even Paul says so). 2) Peter says in 2Peter 3:15-19 that the reader of Paul’s letters will miss understand Paul’s writings and become Torahless. 3) Isaiah 66 speaks of eating unclean in the last days prior to the Messiahs return and it isn’t pleasant. 4) Jeremiah 31 tells us that in the new covenant He will give us His Spirit to cause us to walk in His ways (This means to keep the Torah). 5) The ONLY definition of truth is the Torah (Psalms 119). Keith did a very good job in his post. In no way is anyone here down playing the importance of Jesus (Yeshua). He kept the Torah perfectly. Our job is to walk as He walked. So, to worship Him in “Spirit and Truth” means something entirely different than the accepted Christian view. Not looking for a fight. I only reply to give the reader of these posts some additional info. Peace
@@soybeanfarmer4576 Your points are simply not true. I think people looking for the truth will see that. The Torah is a limited presentation of the truth. It doesn't contain a full revelation of truth. For example, there is truth revealed in the NT that wasn't in the Torah. Paul called these truths, Mysteries. Some of the mysteries had to do with the church. So the Torah isn't the full revelation of truth. Actually, Jesus is the truth.
Another key passage as well is when Jesus himself says “it is finished.” 🙌❤️🙏 John 19:28-30 After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.” A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
Hebrews/Israelites and proselytes in Old Testament Judaism (*NOT Christians in New Testament Christianity*) will offer animal sacrifices again based on what is written in the Law given through Moses at Mount Sinai according to the order of Aaron and Ezekiel 40-46. The Levitical priesthood is training up in Isael now, just look up the Temple Institute. Continued animal sacrifices to cover sins every year is simply anathema to true Christians (John 19; Hebrews 10).
So this seems to be a common issue. There are more than a few problems with this question, lets address those. 1. You asked, "Does God still require animal sacrifices to atone for sin?" The answer is that the animal sacrifices never did atone for our sins. Hebrews 10 : 3-4 2. Im assuming that what you "meant to ask" is, "does God still require sacrifice?" Well this is why we give thanks over our food. The fact is, everything you eat has had its very life sacrificed so that you can continue to live. Remember you ARE the temple of God. 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 there for all things consumed by you was a temple sacrifice. 3. The blood of all the billions of sacrificed animals never ever equaled the blood spilled from one man, our messiah. remember the law is there to point to our savior.... 4. The very definition of sacrifice is: " an act of slaughtering an animal or person or surrendering a possession as an offering to God or to a divine or supernatural figure" Why do you bless your food? BECAUSE YOUR THE TEMPLE AND THAT BURGER WAS A SACRIFICE.
Dear Dr. Solberg, There is nobody in the Torah community today or in the Old Testament time that thought animal sacrifices were justification for sins of death. The blood of bulls and goats could not take away death. Moses knew that. David understood that justification was only through the Yeshu'ah of YHWH. Behold, the Lamb slain at the Foundation of the World promised to Abraham was not the blood of animals!!! Only Yahshua could take away death. Isaiah 45 explains justification. "Yeshu'ah" is an Old Testament concept of Salvation by the Right arm of YHWH. "Turn to Me and be saved, All the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. have sworn by myself ; truth has gone out from My mouth, a word that will not be revoked: Every knee will bow before Me, Every tongue will swear allegiance 24Surely they will say of Me, "In YHWH alone are righteousness and strength.” All who rage against Him will come to Him and be put to shame. In YHWH all descendants of Israel will be justified....
I think Hashem is using you to keep the Torah keepers and the Torah Movement from drifting too far from Biblical Truth. Your book and your videos are truthful and biblical. Gentile Believers are free to obey the commandments given to Israel at Mt. Sinai and it warms my heart when Jews and Gentiles worship together under the traditions of Moses. But, you are 100% correct that all Christians, including Messianic Jewish believers such as myself, are no longer under the old covenant. We believers get to decide what traditions we wish to practice in our lives without judgement of others. As human beings we must remind ourselves that we are all brothers and sisters in Messiah Yeshua. Colossians 2:16 (I must constantly remind myself of this verse as I know it applies to me.)

Hi, Dennis. I very rarely remove comments, and it's only if they contain excessive profanity or personal attacks. I'm all about an open exchange of ideas here on this channel. Blessings, RLS
My answer would be "No" as well. I do not follow any HRM. To credit the late Michael Heiser, the Levitical sacrifices were in place to keep the people ceremonially pure. For the Lord (in the form of His Angel) dwelt among them. He already left us a memorial to practice in the Lord's table, and the sacrifice for sins is once and for all, so it makes sense to allow the sacrifices their original function of keeping clean the sacred space on earth where Jahovah dwells (as He will once again be physically dwelling on the earth with his people). Oh, and the entire earth will be sacred space in his earthly kingdom. That is why all nations must participate. Thank you for your ministry. It is a blessing.
That is untrue, R.L.solberb you are correct in the fact that it was commanded to perform animal sacrifices for sin atonement. But what you fail to understand is even under the Sinai that's only one method of atonement, onr such example of atonement without animals is found in Numbers 25- where pinchas killed 2 people which brought atonement. Moreover, so were coins- Exodus 30:11-16. Plus, incense brought atonement, see numbers 16:40-46.
The Scriptures point out that the Levite priests WILL NOT be re-appointed to their former glory, because not a single Levite Preist stood at the temple when it was under attack. Clearly showing by their actions that they had no longer trusted their God. Another note...The Scriptures also point out that the Levites will be house servants in the House of Jehovah.
18:45 - the ironic thing is that the 3rd Temple was built upon Jesus's body. "Destroy this temple and I will raise it up in 3 days." His Body is the 3rd Temple and it was rebuilt, via the resurrection from the dead. But what is alarming is that our Catholic friends have reimplemented the OT sacrifices in the form of the Mass, where each time the Blood and Body of Christ are reconstituted and sacrificed again. So in an ironic way, the Jewish temple sacrifices have crept back in, at least for some in the church.
To answer your simple question. Animals are not required anymore because Christ is our atonement. No need for carnal ordinances. The law still remains. (no kill, no steal, no lie etc.) That's why it's even more important now to observe the 7 feasts, the day of atonement being one of them. HE is our our Passover, our Sheaf, our First fruit. In fact, all 7 feasts are memorials of our Savior. Not Christmas. Not Easter, or any other man made holiday.
I am sorry but this question is a red herring. In order, to even come to that question, you have assume there isn't a need for it. Which there aren't people who believe in this ideal. Moreover, the assertion assumes they didn't offer sacrifices, see Acts 21:18-26
The verse you quoted: "truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota nor a dot will pass away from the Law until all is accomplished." I also think that what it is saying is that until heaven and earth pass away, the whole world will be under the weight of the Law until heaven and earth pass away. That is to say, our atonement for sin is the Messiah, but unless you believe on his accomplishment, the whole world is judged by the Law. "Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." There were two witnesses that die in the street of Jerusalem before Gods judgement befalls the world. Is it not the Law and Grace? Messiah did die to atone for sin, and the Law stands as witness in judgment for those who do not believe.
“And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.” Colossians 2:13-14 Canceled the record and “ it’s legal demands”
@@MrGaines Not sure which translation you are quoting from? NASB95 "...having canceled out the 'certificate' of debt". NKJV "...having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us,". NKJV sounds like a written citation given to you; or in your record, when you break the law - just like a 'law enforcement' officer would. NASB/NKJV both sound like a ticket is given to the lawbreaker, and the scales of justice need be balanced. So until the certificate of debt is paid, the scale is out of balance. Once paid, the certificate gets nailed but the Law remains. Otherwise after the first speeding ticket is paid then we could all speed.
@@paulwiederhold7629 “For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.” Romans 8:2-4 This my last statement because I have come to understood that only Jesus can free slaves and bring them into freedom. “For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down)” Romans 10:2-6
Nothing changed, the law requires blood… Yah shed the perfect blood that pleased God and blotted out our sins. No law = no sin = no need for Christ as a mediator anymore… No law = no judgement: But we’ll all be judged… The law is forever, God said he would put HIS laws on our hearts, not a different set of laws. Also Heb 8:4 lets you know the law is still here. Remember we are righteous through FAITH, But that does not mean we can now disobey God!
It's unbelievable how they don't understand this, the problem is they try and separate Jew from Gentile, that Gentiles are Christians that make up the new church, they're sadly mistaken, the first Christians were Jews and kept the law, the covenant was made with Judah and Israel only, Gentiles have to be graffed in among Israel to be saved, you have to be converted inwardly - Romans 2:28-29.
@@davidmorris7476 nothing changed the law requires blood… Christ said his everlasting blood… The Levitical priest, it will still be established in the kingdom and so will the holy days… and we’re in the new covenant, right? If so, then we’re in the same covenant that will be established in the kingdom. 21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD. 22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.

Twisting mathew is the linch pin of their entire argument. When theres a massive avalanche of scriptures in the new testament disproving their ideals. In retort they bring the validity of Paul into questioning with wild theories of the new testament being messed with, while at the same time saying the old testament is infallible under the same scrutiny they apply to the new testament to hold their position. Its sad.
Exactly. If you don't accept the writings of the apostle Paul, you kind of have to throw out most of the New Testament. Luke affirms Paul I'm Acts. You'd have to discard Acts and Gospel of Luke, which is unfortunate since those are neatly written in the style of a historian. Peter affirms Paul (2 Peter 3:16) so probably can't trust Peter either. That calls into question the Gospel of Mark, and Matthew. John Mark was a close associate of Peter, and the gospels of Mark and Matthew share many of the same passages. So, how can they know anything about "Yeshua" if they can't trust the New Testament writers?
@@christinab457 You hit the nail on that perfectly. It would all have to unravel and it becomes cart before the horse style thinking.
Hallelujah - let's never compare the efficacy of Messiah's blood to that of bulls and goats ever again!
Amen~🙏
Amen 🙏
@@andrewhodkinson1 What is the significance of Christ's blood exactly?
@@dre5773 Shalom. Significance of "efficacy" is as the Apostles said, "A lamb slain from the foundations of the earth". For this reason, Messiah's blood is not worthy of comparison with anything else with regards to "efficacy". Typological comparison with the atonement of bulls and goats is obviously fine and good (like some Christians do when eating the Passover lamb or in eating of the bread and wine in remembrance); however, typology would never get us saying that any work of man comes anywhere near the power of the blood of the Lord of Glory who Romans and Galatians say is "the righteousness of God apart from the law".
I'll post my reply to the Prof so you can understand the position of Reformed Theology / Protestantism in this regard. His blood is VERY significant:
Shalom RLS. The view of Reformed Theology is that the Temple could only atone for the sins that God winked at (Acts 17:30), upon the sinner receiving knowledge of and acting accordingly (Lev 4,5 Num 15,16). That was it. Judaism, Eastern Orthodox and Catholicism have various nuances in this regard but are of similar opinion. In Protestantism (by and large), when talking of all sins in the context of the earthly Temple service, this has historically been believed to be in relation to sins of ignorance alone.
"The sacrifices of the Old Testament were made for the expiation of sins, but they were not able to take away the guilt of deliberate and presumptuous sins. The Day of Atonement, as it was appointed by God, was designed to cover sins of ignorance, not willful defiance. Christ’s sacrifice was required to address the full scope of human sin, including willful and deliberate transgressions." (John Owen, The Death of Death in the Death of Christ, Chapter 11)
I know this is a great assumption of “all sins” in the context of the Yom Kippur ceremony, but Owen and other Reformed Theologians don’t lightly make this interpretation. They believed that the author of Hebrews taught the limited nature of Temple atonement not just in terms of its yearly repetitive nature, but effectiveness as well. These two scriptures are compelling in this regard:
Heb 9:7 but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people.
Heb 10:26-27 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.
Hope this makes sense. Blessings

I don't think Rob Solberg would agree that the Law was designed as a trap. The Bible speaks of the Law with poetic love language. David calls it perfect. The psalms sing about it with praise. Paul praises the Law that shows us what sin is. You can choose to look at the Torah law as legalistic anchor or as a guide and moral compass. Thanks for the name drop in the video Dr. SOLBERG, was fun to see you pay attention to your video comments.
@AdamPlayFarms The Law in the sense of what God expects of our heart? Yeah it is good. But much was added due to the hardness of our hearts, not because it was part of the original design. The Mosaic Law is simply an expression of a greater Law of the Spirit.
Peter called the old cov Law a Yoke that didn't belong around the disciples necks. Paul called the Law BONDAGE !
In Acts 15 the Apostle's and Elders made the decision that NO Gentile Believer had to be circumcized or follow the Old Cov Law ! PERIOD !
Case Closed. You nutty Law and sabbath keeping nuts need to learn the Covenant we are under today, it's called THE NEW COVENANT.
It's a BETTER Covenant God made of being under GRACE and not LAW.
I know this is not your reason for posting videos like this, but I appreciate the challenges you are proposing because it helps us to refine our theology.
I agree that animal sacrifice is not required now that we have the sacrifice of Christ. This is detailed in the book of Hebrews, and it seems to be the only commandment that has changed because of the change in priesthood. We now have a better Priesthood and a better sacrifice. However, the other commandments teach us about holiness and living in a way that pleases God. They teach us how to worship God and be separate from the world.
The commandment to offer sacrifices for sin is no longer necessary because we have a better sacrifice now. But this doesn’t remove our obligation to obey God in other areas.

I'm not a Christian. Actually the label Christian only means one thing today, hypocracy. Scripture refers to me as Yah's people. The place that Torah has in my life is that it is instructional. Yah is my authority and the focus of my life and worship. Now, Yeshua is my high priest and my King. Yah, Yeshua and Scripture all have authority over me. In this period beyond the Aaronic priesthood, I'm not sacrificing animals but I'm not eating pigs either. According to Scripture, pigs are unclean designed to be scavengers. Peter's vision referred to gentiles not pigs. I observe Sabbath because Yah set that day apart at creation not at Moses. Christians want to focus on arguments instead of authenticity and abiding in Messiah. 'Torah observers" abide in the written instead of the living and that is very obvious.

That is sadly true far too often.

Your question is very specific and certainly elucidates what was accomplished on the cross, our salvation. We are children of promise, not Sinai. The taskmaster, the Torah, was removed and we may come into our inheritance.

@@siranthonybrownpodcast Excellent points. I'll provide some scriptures for my points.
Regarding love, God has a clear way for us to express this love to each other. Now please read this scripture and I know the immediate response are "His commandments are to love him and love one another" but isn't it redundant in this passage if we replace "commandments " with "love"?
1 John 5:1-3 KJV
[1] Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. [2] By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. [3] For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
What law is this referring to?
SIN:1 John 3:4 KJV
[4] Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
As for only judging based on love, see here in Revelations 2 Christ is against the practice of eating things sacrificed to idols and fornication...what does eating thing sacrificed to idols have to do with loving one another?
Revelation 2:14 KJV
[14] But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Now, if sin still exists fo we need repentance? If so what exactly is repentance and is that "work"?

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
@racerx4152 I would check your Bible again. Galatians 5:4 does not say that. If you are going to use quotation marks, it should be an actual accurate quote. If it's just your interpretation of a text, then state it as such.
Galatians 5:4 is about using ritual circumcision as a means to achieve salvation.
@@AsterionH It's more than that - Paul said if one gets circumcised they are obligated to keep the entire law in which there is no salvation.
@@kimartist Nope, he's asserting that no one can keep the entire law perfectly, therefore circumcision in and of itself cannot save.
Gentiles were never under the Law. How could any Gentile today, milennia after the Old Covenant passed away, want to be put under the condemnation of the Law.
@@SSNBN777 because the modern church is apostate, so people are looking for a way back.
@@SSNBN777 If they joined with Israel then they took part in the laws. Just for clarity thou shalt not murder, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself were laws putting us under condemnation?
@dre5773 yes. Because ... the "tables of the covenant" are the ministration of death. One mistake and you are guilty of the whole law. Good luck "keeping" it.
@@dre5773- because they bring us to the end of ourselves because on in and of ourselves, we cannot fulfill those. Who can love their neighbor as themselves fully? Jesus took these laws and pushed us to the end of our own sinfulness by expanding these laws not just to actions but heart motives. Mosaic law forces us to see our weakness and our flesh tries to say I can do it, I can fulfill it, I can please God by my own efforts. But in the end one is condemned because where you fall in one part of the law, you have fallen in all of it.

Gentiles were never under the Law.
*And yet, God encourages the strangers/Gentiles of Isaiah 56 to embrace his Sabbath and partake in his covenant, and he promises them a name in his house better than sons and daughters (better than the Jews essentially). This prophecy is made in preparation for Matthew 21. This is the nation that Christ said would receive the kingdom he is taking away from the Jews who would bring forth the fruits in their due season, meaning they would keep the Old Covenant where the Jews failed to do so. It’s also why Christ quotes Isaiah 56 in Matthew 21, making it clear his house would be a house of prayer for all people, meaning he was opening the covenant up to more than the Jews.
Also, there is nothing in torah preventing a Gentile from being circumcised and observing torah accordingly. Even before the days of Moses, Jacob’s children required the men of sheckem to be circumcised if they wanted to dwell among them, this would have made them obligated to the covenant which Paul was fully aware of in Galatians 5:2-3. Remember, Paul said that the circumcised were debtors to do the whole law, and Paul was circumcised, and circumcised a half Greek Gentile Timothy in Acts 16:1-3. It’s no different than the Strangers in Ezekiel 44 who will be required to be circumcised in heart and in flesh, the two types of torah circumcision, before God will allow them to enter the future temple of the restored Davidic kingdom, suggesting the restriction placed on circumcission of Gentiles in Acts 15 was never intended to be a perminant provision, else the pollution God is complaining about in Ezekiel 44 will never be resolved.
You continue: How could any Gentile today, milennia after the Old Covenant passed away, want to be put under the condemnation of the Law.
*That’s a problem if you believe God is the single most merciless being in all the universe, but if God lives up to his promises in the mercy clause of the law in Exodus 20:6 and elsewhere, then those who make a stink about the condemnation of the law are just making a stink that has no real punch. In fact, speaking contrary to the law is the greater danger, because God in Isaiah 8:20 says there is no light in people who do that. Do you know why Christ was the light of the world in the gospels, because he taught according to the law and testimony in fulfillment of Isaiah 8:20, intent on binding up the testimony and sealing the law among God’s disciples to fulfill Isaiah 8:16. Now, Isaiah 8:16 is an idea coming from Deuteronomy 6, where the Jews would bind up writings of the law to their right hand and forehead, because the seal of God is his law. Notice in Revelation 14, the mark of the beast is also placed in the right hand and forehead, and that is what you get when you follow people out from under the seal of God’s law identified in Isaiah 8:16. So, the law is not your enemy, it is God’s seal, and it is how he protects you. But, if you don’t want that protection, he will not stop you from opening yourself up to receive the mark of the beast instead in your right hand and forehead. But, I don’t recommend it, because God isn’t going to be happy with those who do not heed the warning of the third angels message in Revelation 14. In fact, those who continue to transgress God’s law and break his everlasting covenant, he says in Isaiah 24:5-6 that the curse will devour the earth for this reason, the inhabitants will be burned and few men left.
You see, those who get the victory and stand on the sea of glass in Revelation 15 are not turning away from Moses and his teachings, but they sing the song of Moses and the Lamb. Moses and the Lamb are the two prophets of Deuteronomy 18. Christ was the prophet like Moses, and so a true understanding of the law is one that unites with the gospel, but people like Paul came in wanting to lure God’s people out from under his law in Romans 6:14, violating Isaiah 8:20 in the process. Why would Paul do this, because Paul said he has a “messenger of Satan” in 2Cor 12:7, just one chapter after 2Cor 11 where he tells you not to marvel that Satan’s ministers are transformed into ministers of righteousness. Go read it for yourself, it’s not like Paul was trying to hide from what he really was, but Christians don’t typically want to hear that Paul was a threat to Christianity. He was a Pharisee, and Christ said of the Pharisees that they were of their father the devil in John 8:44, that they make their procelites into twice the child of hell than themselves in Matthew 23:15, they refuse to enter his kingdom in Matthew 23:13, and that they don’t have the righteousness required to enter his kingdom in Matthew 5:20. That has always made me wonder how a Pharisee like Paul was going to get himself and his messenger of Satan into the kingdom of God in light of Christ’s warning in Matthew 5:20. And when Paul blurted out late in his career that he was still a Pharisee in Acts 23:6, he not only brought his so called conversion to Christianity into serious question, but he also brought the entire body of his doctrine under the scrutiny of Christ’s warning in Matthew 16 to beware the doctrine of the Pharisees. So, should Christians follow Paul out from under the protection of God’s law in Romans 6:14. I wouldn’t recommend it. I think the Savior is right in his assessment of Pharisees like Paul. They are far more trouble than they are worth. Christ on the other hand seems to think the law will stay in tact in Matthew 5:18 until the prophetic sign he gives there is fulfilled which is “Till heaven and earth passes”. And John 21:1 shows us that heaven and earth doesn’t pass away until well into our future, because it hasn’t all been fulfilled yet.
Hey Rob, this is the reason i asked for an interview so that you can clarify your postion. I think people are misrepresenting it.
I would be interested in watching that
In my opinion, no one can ( or should) say that they "keep" Torah.
Most Ministries that I have been expose to focus on Sabbath, feassts/festivals, and dietary laws. They really don't keep Torah. Not even close
Your interpetation of "until heaven and earth pass away" matches up with how Luke puts it:
'And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. ' Luke 16:17
Amen, good for you. Could never understand why so many are so willing trade in freedom in Christ for the yoke of the law.
And allegedly believe in Christ
@@jonathanwhiteside816 where in scripture does it say the law is a yoke?
Psalms 119:44-45 So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever.
And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.
The original question only works on Christians who are ignorant of Hebrew and the scriptures. Atone for what kinds of "sin"? Chet, Avon, or Pesha? There are multiple words in Hebrew for sin not to mention the fact that sacrifices were only offered for unintentional sins. There was no sacrifice commanded in the Torah for intentional sins. Also, Paul was commanded by James to take a vow and make the required offering in the Temple in Acts 21 to prove that he "kept the law" which, according to the text, he did perform. This was clearly a Nazirite vow based on the text because it specifically mentions that they had to "shave their heads". It's quite a simple task to see what the offering was for someone who completed a Nazirite vow (Num 6) which, by the way, included a sin, a burnt, and a peace offering. Three animals. It would be comical at best for Paul to show up to the Temple at the completion of a Nazirite vow and say "Sorry, I believe in Jesus so I'm exempt from making the required sacrifices." So yes, they are still required although they are forbidden to be performed today without the Temple altar and the fact that they cannot be done today was already anticipated and covered in the scriptures when Solomon dedicated the Temple in 1 Kings 8. Can you explain to me why the Prince (ie Messiah) is commanded by God to offer sacrifices in the Millennial Temple in Ezekiel 45?
Hi Cracker. "Atonement is to be made once a year for *_all_* the sins of the Israelites” (Lev. 16:34)
As for the prince in Ezekiel, I am far from convinced that is the Messiah. Jesus was sinless.
RLS
Lev 16:34 says "for all their chatotam (chet/unintentional sins)", it does not say "all their pesheihem (pesha/intentional sins)". The fact remains that there was no sacrifice a person could bring to atone for intentional sins. As for the Prince, regardless of whether you are convinced that he is the Messiah or not, it's pretty undeniable from the text in Ezek. that sacrifices are taking place in the future Temple and God is not angry at that, in fact, He commands it in the text. Also, no comment on Paul bringing the offerings of a Nazirite after Jesus?
He addresses his thoughts on sacrifices in the millennium in this video.
There's a lot going on in Acts 21. Paul is asked to go with some Jewish believers in Jerusalem taking the Nazarite vow and to help pay their way to diffuse a controversy in the Jerusalem church between gentile and Jewish believers and to correct misconceptions about himself. He does this, leading to his capture and the prophecy in v11 being fulfilled. He makes his defense in chapter 22, with nothing to say about the law at all... really just his conversion testimony. This passage is not Paul endorsing the law, but him trying to make peace with the Jews for the sake of the gospel.
This really adds nothing because I already know what Acts 21 says. The entire episode was to offer PROOF of his Torah observance and God commanded sacrifices in the Torah. Period. You can try to side-step what he did all you want by reframing it but the fact remains, he did it. If he did so without sincerity and merely as a show for man, then I'd have to say he is a charlatan and the most vile individual in the NT.
Like the judge will admonish witnesses in court: "Answer only the question that was asked."
Solberg:
My question to you is when did Messiah instruct His apostles to stop sacrificing in the Temple?
That instruction would have been included in what they were to teach according to the "Great commission" Matt. 28.
He had 40 days to instruct them on this matter.
Therefore when the day of Pentecost arrived in Acts 2, do we find the 120 instructing the newly converted believers
NOT TO SACRIFICE IN THE TEMPLE?
The book of Hebrews to which you constantly refer obviously was not written then.
So were the new believers told NOT TO PARTAKE OF OR PARTICIPATE IN ANIMAL SACRIFICES?
Were they even told that they were in the "New Covenant"?
Were they told that they no longer had to obey the dietary laws?
The answer to all the questions above is NO!
Those Jews who converted came to the Temple for Pentecost as Sabbath keeping, kosher eating, animal sacrificing Jews.
These were the sacrifices offered on that day:
"The festive sacrifices for the day of Pentecost were, according to Numbers 28:26-31, 'two young bullocks, one ram, and seven lambs of the first year' for a burnt-offering, along with their appropriate meat-offerings; and 'one kid of the goats' for a sin-offering."
Ask yourself the same questions for the following converts in Acts. When were they told to stop animal even sin sacrifices?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Samaritans?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to Cornelius?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to Paul when he was baptized, by Ananias?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Ethiopian by Philip?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Jewish High Priest and Agrippa by Paul, late in the book of Acts?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to the Jews in the Synagogues, by Paul, throughout the book of Acts?
Shouldn't the arrival "New Covenant" and abolishing of animal & sin sacrifices, have been declared to John's apostles in
Acts 19 when they were converted?
You cannot find ONE EXAMPLE of either Messiah teaching nor the Apostles teaching about the New Covenant in Acts nor about the abolishing of animal & sin sacrificing.
Are you using the book of Hebrews only, ONE WITNESS., to support your position? Hebrews was on of the last books approved and added to the Bible. We do not even know it's author.
Shouldn't we require or 3 witnesses to establish a matter, and this witness should be closer to the ministry of the Apostles, as they were filled with the Holy Spirit.
Also, if the apostles had taught the new believers not to offer animal sacrifices, they would have swiftly be in trouble with the Jewish authorities based upon:
Hebrews 10:28
Anyone who disobeys the Law of Moses is put to death without any mercy when judged guilty from the evidence of two or more witnesses
----
So the challenge to YOU is to PROVE that the Apostles taught others to stop animal & sin sacrificing but somehow
escaped condemnation from Gamaliel & the Sanhedrin in Acts 5, and all the other Jewish officials, King Agrippa, The High Priest, and enemies even of Paul, no one ever charged them with teaching Jews not to offer animal or sin sacrifices.
Jesus NEVER taught it. The Apostles NEVER taught that animal and sin sacrifices were discontinued due to the death of Messiah. Our EYE WITNESSES are that the Jewish leadership never accused them of teaching what you are assuming that they taught.
P.S. Jesus never used the words "New Covenant" at the Last Supper. Check the Greek.
He only said "this is the blood of the covenant." The word NEW was interpolated in the text as early as Marcion's texts.
Bibles with good foot notes will admit that the word "new" was added to these texts. That is also why you never hear the Apostles telling anyone that they are in the "new covenant" in the book of Acts.
Have you heard of the book “The Torah as Narrative”? Or “Reading Moses seeing Jesus”? Those books as well as your ministry has been very helpful for me. Thanks for your work
I am so happy I found this channel : )

Great video Professor Rob!! This is not only a salient apologetic but is an incredible pause for worship of our Great God and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ for what He did laying down His life that we might live!
We’re not to forsake assembling ourselves together, so who decides what day we gather? And of course, the answer is our maker. Does He not knows what’s best.
We are not to kill, committed adultery , have idols , worship other gods and within those 10 Commandments is the sabbath so why would we by His grace keep them all “ except” for the weekly Sabbath . Why is it written smack dab in the middle of l the 10 Commandments. These commandments are NOT Levitical ceremonial laws, their principles and standards for all humanity.

This was interesting. I’m from a mixed Jewish and Christian background, but I’m just Jewish (Reform/Conservative).
Even among Jews who believe in a Temple in the future, there isn’t a clear consensus on the sacrifices. Some view it as a House of Prayer for all people (Isaiah type) thing, while others think it’ll all be reinstituted.

Thank you for you're service...warrior🔥🔥🔥🔥
So if I may ask you in a different way, if (and He is our Atonement) does the transgression still remain sin?
Nowhere in scripture does it state that animal sacrifices will be memorials in the future. People point to EZ but it calls the animal sacrifices sin sacrifices for Israel. It does not say they are memorials. There will be no animal sacrifices in future. People reading into scripture and misunderstanding it.
@@kmountain5533 There are no scriptures that state animal sacrifices was or will ever be memorials. The book of EZ in various places talks about animal sacrifices for sin for Israel. But it doesnt say they are memorials as people try to insert into those passages. According to the book of Hebrews Jesus was the final once for all sin sacrifice. There will never be animal sacrifices for sin ever again.
@@kmountain5533 But they are not after the new covenant. Some claim those sin sacrifices are in a millenial kingdom.
@@kmountain5533 I dont believe animal sacrifices will be used again.
The old covenant required 100% obedience and if just one command was violated the entire covenant was broken. Also, will the torah-keepers stone adulterers??? Cant have it both ways. The new covenant law is fulfilled in loving one another. Period.
Yes, there are some preaching this very thing. That the law of the land (U.S., of course) should be Torah, including death penalty for things
not punishable by law currently, such as adultery, homosexuality, etc. They even teach that we should be executing these punishments now, if we are in positions of government. Basically, torah observant (interpreted by whoever's in charge) Christian Nationalism.
So I have a thought, doesn't the bible talk of US being a living sacrifice. Further confirmation that Christ's death is enough.
My relative is totally into Torahism and they think the “church” is pagan, and believes the Torah is the Gospel, and the Torah is Jesus. It’s crazy. ❤
Kat, your relative is correct. The foundation of what we call the Catholic/ Christian faith, aka the Roman Catholic Church, at its core inner circle are Satan worshipers. They have been from the start of the RCC in the 3rd and 4th century.... I have a list going of various practices of the RCC and have compared it to a practice by the various pagans. and guess what? 1 for 1 on all accounts, they are the same. Here is just a small list of what both the RCC and pagans do that are the same and none of which are in the Bible: Drink wine and say it is literally the blood of their God (transubstantiation), have a Trinity, worship their God on Sunday, worship the birth of their God on 12/25, have a worship day on the 1st Sunday after the 1st new moon after the spring equinox, do things in secret, murder people who go against them, sexualize children and women, have a leader who speaks for and is the authority on earth, for their God......
That is the short list! The RCC founders hijacked the true Biblical Faith that was started by Christ and the Apostles and early biblical followers. They used the power of the Roman empire to weld their way in to control. They then twisted scripture and played a game with the minds of people, many who could not read nor write, or they could not read the language the bible was written in.
The RCC at one point made it illegal to even have a Bible. How's that for honer and integrity? Does that sound like a foundation that you would like to have? Christ said the Anti Christ was already at work and that many would come. Many did, they are called Popes.
You want to know the true faith of the Bible? Read it without any input from a Catholic or Protestant church's doctrine laid over top. Look up the meaning of words and the truth shines!
Just my 2 cents.
Many Blessings! Yah Bless!
@@KatAmanti - The church is pagan. They follow Roman holidays and give people a pass to continue in sin with the grace card.
I really enjoy your channel! Keep at it
Great video. The two covenants just can't mix. You either keep one or keep the other. I didn't understand the last part about expressely forbade the drinking of blood though...would a Jewish Eucharist include that, or are we talking about about Christ's blood symbolised by the wine?
This is symbolized at Passover Seder by eating the unleavened bread and serving the 4th Cup of Consummation.
I love your methodical logical style, backed up by clear scripture. I have always understood that a third temple will be built under the guidance of the Antichrist and that the sacrificial system will be reinstituted by religious Jews and that this is stopped half way into the tribulation when the Antichrist declares himself god and places his image in the temple. Mind you I have always felt a bit uncomfortable with this position as it seems surprising that God would allow the once for all sacrifice of His son to be insulted by allowing this to happen ( but hey, blasphemy happens every day, so the may allow it). I never would have considered this being a part of the millennial reign but I do believe that representatives of every nation will desire to participate in the major memorial festivals in Jerusalem each year ( Passover, Pentecost and booths) to remember all that God has done for all people (not just the Jews).
Another great Video!
So when are you going to break your echo-chamber on this particular topic and have a Torah-observant Christian who affirms fundamental doctrines (Trinity, salvation by grace through faith apart from works, etc.) on your channel? We’re still waiting. I have recommended some potential candidates in the comment section of your videos before.
The concept of a Jewish Eucharist makes me chuckle. Like... Y'all are still looking at the shadows and we're sitting here going, yeah, there IS a Jewish Eucharist, He's Christ. Everything they keep going back to the old covenant for has already been brought forth.
Great question and explanation of the question professor. Thanks.
@timgilroy1976 yes the moon is new because that's the name we give the concept. However, if you're implying the concept of "new" is always the same because the word "new" is used in a different context, that wouldn't logically follow and is called a word/concept fallacy.
@timgilroy1976 in Ecclesiastes, it's important to remember that it's poetic literature so it should be interpreted metaphorically more than anything. "Nothing new under the sun" is referring to how the same problems happen over and over in history.
@timgilroy1976 in Jeremiah, vs 32 gives you some meaning to "new", it says "not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers"... So we can at least demonstrate that the new covenant is not according to the one before. That's one part that's new.
There seems to be two main ways to conceive of new
1. Completely original, nothing like it before
2. Restored to an original state of perfection (as in a reference to the thing before it)
See the difference? Either there's something before (like new moon) or not (like a new idea).
There's likely other ways that new is conceived of, so those two aren't exhaustive, just the first two I think of in the examples we're talking about.
@timgilroy1976 okay you're starting to get off track of "new". Do you agree or disagree that there's multiple concepts tied up in the word "new"? If so, wouldn't there be multiple concepts tied up in "commandments"?
I guess all this does come around to the original point of the video regarding animal sacrifice and the old covenant vs new covenant, which would be interesting to touch on again.
@timgilroy1976 that question presupposes a ton of theological concepts. I think the question is a bit irrelevant because it brings in arguments about millennialism/amillennialism, interpretation of prophecy that might or might not be fulfilled yet... I think for the scope of the discussion it would be best to stick with what we know right now, which the question is are we supposed to do animal sacrifice now?
I knew several people that took this path and ended up apostates because they couldn't reconcile the questions you asked, so instead of embracing Christianity, they rejected it for Judaism.
A question I haven't EVER seen addressed by Torah observers or otherwise: By law, obedience was to receive blessing. Perfect obedience = perfect blessing under the blood oath contract of 'Torah'. HOW WAS JESUS CURSED?
Here is where I disagree with the HRM movement. They do not have a good arguement for the keeping of the entirety of the law of Moses. While I do think the law plays a part, I acknowledge that there is absolutely a change in the law, out of necessity, with the change of the priesthood and Hebrews 7:12 teaches us this. This change in the priesthood justifies, out of necessity, a change in the law and it is the Levitical priesthood has now been changed to a better priesthood through our Messiah in the order of Melchizedek. This does away with the animal sacrificial system to atone for our sins.
@@RestorationofallThings The problem with the HRM is their theology, they believe you must keep all the Jewish rituals of the law for salvation. There is a problem with this they don't actually follow what they teach, they will say you have to eat kosher and keep the Saturday Sabbath, and the feast days. But they do not uphold the full law, and Christ said in Matthew 5:17-19 that anyone who teaches against the commandments will be called least in the kingdom. This is where the HRM messes up the teach Saturday Sabbath yet are not putting people to death for breaking the Sabbath, and many other things that are not needed because you are not under the Mosaic covenant.
In conclusion there is ample evidence that the HRM teaches a false theology, and it should be rejected.
@timgilroy1976 Because I believe that Ez. 43 is not saying what everyone thinks it is saying. I believe that the temple descibed in Ez. 43 was a conditional temple that will never be built. Verse 11 is the key to understanding this. "And IF they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known the design of the temple and its arrangements." Israel was not ashamed, they continued in idolatry, so this temple, which would have been temporary until Messiah would come, was not built and it never will be. There is no need for it. Even in Rev. 21:22 tells us John saw no temple in the new Jerusalem for God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
@@thedude9941 Not all of them teach that we have to keep all the Jewish rituals for salvation. There are some that have a much better understanding and know that we are not obeying the Sabbath, dietary restrictions, and the feasts for any kind of salvation. These are NOT "Jewish" rituals. The bible does not teach that. When the feasts are given, God tells them that these are HIS holy days. He never tells Israel, these are YOUR feasts.
Here is where we will disagree. You see these things as completely fulfilled in Christ, but they are not. These feasts are pointing to the first and second comings of the Messiah. Christ fulfilled the spring feasts in His first coming, but He has NOT fulfulled the fall feasts. Those are fulfilled in His second coming. Israel was to be a light to the nations. However, they never did fulfill that. Deut. 4:6 tells us this. Instead, they created a religious system around God's ways. They are trying to keep these things and the law, without Christ! When you do that, then you ARE trying to keep these things unto salvation.
I don't believe in keeping "Kosher" that is a Jewish invention. Eating a biblically clean diet is another thing. There are no "rituals" that need to be performed over things we eat. A biblically clean diet is for our health. Many people miss this. A careful reesearch of the animals that God said not to eat will show you that. It was a way to keep our bodies clean, after all, we ARE the temple now. I do not make this an issue, so if you choose to eat unclean animals, you will reap the consequences of that with poorer health. It is NOT salvational! God did not just tell us to stay away from certain animals for no reason or to get us to jump through theological hoops for Him. He is trying to protect us because He is a loving creator and knows His creation better than we do. And, lets face it, there are clearly animals that NONE of us eat!! I have found that the issue is mostly with the pig and shellfish.
@timgilroy1976 I’m not hardening my heart. I believe in keeping the commandments, but trough Yeshua. You can’t do it without Him! Ez. 43 would contradict what Hebrews teaches in chapter 10 which tells us that we have been sanctified through Yeshua once for all! The animal sacrifices cannot perfect us and through His offering, He is perfecting forever those who are being sanctified! I showed you verse 11 of Ez 43. That was a conditional temple and Israel was not ashamed of their idolatry. This temple was not and will not be built. It was based on a condition!
@timgilroy1976 You do realize that in the millennial kingdom we receive our resurrected bodies. Sukkot is showing you something. We now dwell in temporary dwellings(our bodies.) In the millennium we will no longer be in these bodies. Sukkot will take on a whole new meaning. We dwell with our King. That is what Sukkot is pointing you towards. Yes, the nations will come up to Jerusalem during this feast. All the feasts are eternal! There will still be offerings but NOT animal sacrifices.
I believe you answered your own question. Was the messiah spoken of in the Torah? If so then he is a part of the Torah, which part exactly? FULFILLMENT! Not exactly a change in the way you're making it sound but rather a fulfillment. As in the missing piece.
Great work as always, Professor Solberg. Clear, concise & irrefutable 👍
Thank you!
Rob,
There were a lot of times Sean brought something up and you didn’t have the answer. Brother, I was TO/HR for some ten years… till The Spirit told me to “study to show myself approved”. That I did, and the two years that followed… was spent receiving the download. That is… the answers came, “And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself. Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. (HE explained the dividing of The Word of Truth using the bread parabolically.) Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him (They knew Him… as the rejected Word at Sinai); and He vanished from their sight.
Sean believes The Son is at work, performing sacrifices (following the instructions found in the covenant from Horeb… which is NOT, and has nothing whatsoever to do with The Covenant of Promise), when in reality… this work (according to The Promise) was done from the foundation of the world. That’s right The Bread was broken and His blood was shed from the foundation of the world… That’s BEFORE the old covenant “instructions” were given. As they say, “but wait, there’s more.”
Brother, I’d love to talk with you offering a huge connecting of dots. Please, can we talk sometime.
Blessings,
Don
Typical missionary question.
This just shows how out of touch Christian are with Jewish theology and how little they really know.
The right answer is both yes and no. Jesus died because a sin offer was required to atone for our sins. It establishes the law itself. Because, if it is no longer needed, then Jesus did not need to die. Do we need another sacrifice for sin? No, because we already have one. So, the NT establishes the OT in this case.
The quality of the question defines the quality of the answer.
The problem in communication is the term Old and New. I prefer to use it as the first witness and the second witness. Keeping the commandments is the first mark of God (Deuteronomy 6:1-7) and the testimony of Jesus is the second mark of God (Exodus 13:6-9). Keeping Torah is bringing you closer to Jesus and revealing the character of God. I do not understand why this is seen as a yoke. I agree with David with his words in Psalm 19:8-11. Constantly seeking Torah is only bringing you good things. But I keep hearing this is dangerous.
Thanks Rob for another great teaching. Much can be discussed about the keeping of feasts and sacrifices in Ezekiel and Zachariah during what many believe will be the millennial kingdom. I have my own opinion on this as many others and I think that iS all anyone can really give on it. But we are in my opinion in the dispensation of grace and given at this time as well the Word of God provided by the Apostles through the Holy Spirit which is a sure Word and tells us there is no longer any requirement for animal sacrifices. I am going with the Word of God rather than speculation or opinion.
Thanks for your very informative teachings. I have encountered folks part of the HRM and it's not always pleasant. They follow Joe Fox and Bear Independent. Their arrogance and judgment are sometimes difficult to tolerate.
This is an awesome video!
Love your teaching, brother. God bless, as always.
It's also noteworthy that Matthew 5:18 is preceded by, you guessed it, verse 17. "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them." This is what gives meaning to the words "until all is accomplished". That is: Jesus' fulfilment of them which has taken place.
It’s actually crazy that even in the comments there are people that believe animal sacrifice is still necessary. The Bible called it to a t with some of these people.
Another question: is the 10 commandments included in the torah that is no longer required today?
Rob, would you like to respond to my video response to you? Or we can have a live discussion about it?
There’s no dilemma here, your question is misleading because it’s stated from a false premise.
Your question was, “Does God still require animal sacrifices to atone for sin?” And followed with, “if your answer is “No, that’s no longer how we atone for sin” - which by the way is the correct biblical answer... You're acknowledging that the old covenant law is no longer in effect.”
There is a difference between the atonement that’s spoken in Leviticus and the atonement offering made by Jesus. Hebrews explains this very well. The Tent that was in their midst, made by hands, was to deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body - it was never able to perfect the one serving, as to his conscience. As he says, “the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sets apart for the cleansing of the flesh.” It was the flesh that was atoned for, not their conscience. So why did they need their flesh atoned for? Because the Lord was dwelling in their midst and they would have died in their uncleanness if they were to draw near to Him in a physically unclean state.
Lev. 15:31 ‘Thus you shall separate the children of Israel from their uncleanness, lest they die in their uncleanness when they defile My tabernacle which is in their midst.’
And not only was an atonement made for the people but also the utensils, the altar, and the Tent itself.
Lev. 16:16 “And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins. And so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation which is dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness.”
Uncleanness could not be in the presence of the Lord, lest you die. And if the Tent was defiled, the Lord would have departed from it, which later He did and destroyed it. Thus why an atonement for sin was needed. But sadly, many of Gods people were spiritually unclean, bringing their offerings and sacrifices for an atonement, but their hearts were wicked. As Samuel declared: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying His voice? Behold, obedience is better than sacrifice, and to hearken is better than the fat of rams, for rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.”
But they did not listen to His voice.
“But My people did not listen to My voice, And Israel would not submit to Me. So I gave them over to their own stubborn heart, to walk in their own counsels.”
“This word I did command them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I shall be your God, and you be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, so that it be well with you.’ “But they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in the counsels, in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward. “From the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have even sent to you all My servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them. “But they did not obey Me or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck. They did evil, more than their fathers.”
“O Jerusalem, wash your heart from evil, and be saved. Till when would your wicked thoughts remain within you?”
“For My people are foolish, they have not known Me. They are stupid children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.”
Their hearts were defiled and needed cleansing. Therefore, God promised He would cleanse them and give them a new heart, saying, “And I shall sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean - from all your filthiness and from all your idols I cleanse you. “And I shall give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. And I shall take the heart of stone out of your flesh, and I shall give you a heart of flesh, and I will put My Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My laws and guard My judgments and shall do them. “And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you shall be My people, and I shall be your God. And I shall save you from all your uncleannesses.”
How does He do this? Behold, the true and perfect Tent.
Messiah, having become a High Priest of good things to come, through the greater and more perfect Tent not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered into the Holy Place once for all, with His own blood, offered Himself unblemished to God, to cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
Hebrews 10:14-18
“For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my Torah on their hearts, and write them on their minds,” then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.” Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.”
If you are submitted to the Lord and have His Torah written upon your heart, it means you are no longer practicing lawlessness and your sins are forgiven. If this is true of you, there remains no offering for sins because you would no longer be sinning.
1 John 3:4-9
“Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin. If you are of God, you do not make a practice of sin.”
He came to destroy the works of the devil, to cleanse your heart - to give you a new heart and a new spirit and to cause you to walk in His ways by having His Torah written upon your heart. Therefore, that is why it says, “Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.” So, as it says, “let us draw near with a true heart in completeness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and our bodies washed with clean water. Let us hold fast the confession of our expectation without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy.” And then we are warned, “For if we sin wilfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but some fearsome anticipation of judgment, and a fierce fire which is about to consume the adversaries. Anyone who has disregarded the Torah of Moses dies without compassion on the witness of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment do you think shall he deserve who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified as common, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who has said, “Vengeance is Mine, I shall repay, says the Lord.” And again, “The Lord shall judge His people.” It is fearsome to fall into the hands of the living God.”
So, to answer your question. As the Master Yeshua stated, “till heaven and earth pass away, not one jot or tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done.” Do you believe in the second coming of Yeshua? If so, not all has been fulfilled. The Torah and the prophets speak of His coming, and they speak of the new heaven and the new earth with the passing of the old which comes after the judgement seat of Messiah, at the end of Revelation in chapter 21, so every single word in the Torah still remains. If the temple of God was here and His presence dwelt in the temple, yes, you would be required to make an atonement for your flesh. You would be foolish not to. And how amazing would it be if God physically dwelt among us as He did before. There certainly would be no atheist alive today I’m sure of that. But don’t get that atonement confused with the atonement that Yeshua offered in cleansing our hearts. One is for the flesh and the other is for our conscience.
When it says, “For it is not possible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins,” it’s not saying the blood of bulls and goats used to take away sins and now it doesn’t, no, it never did. It’s not what the earthly tabernacle was ever for. Those offerings were never able to make perfect those who draw near which they offer continually year by year.
Mr. Solberg, God is doing an amazing work. His people all throughout the world are now beginning to turn back to Him, obeying His voice and keeping His commandments. As Moses stated, “in the last days when it comes back into your hearts to do all that I command you today, with all your heart and all your soul, then God will gather you from all the nations where He has scattered you.” According to Moses, there will be people in the last days who turn back to keeping the same Torah as he was teaching back then. So, be careful, if this is of God, you are unable to overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found fighting against God.
@@keithwagnon5206 TL;DR Get a channel.
@keithwagnon5206 It sounds like your main point is that they had physical sacrifices for cleansing their flesh because they had a physical place where they met with God. You make a solid point. But do you follow the implications to the end? The entire Torah was written for a physical people who had a physical place where they met with God. So the Torah contains physical foods laws. And physical clothing laws. And physical feasts and cleansing rituals. All for cleansing the flesh so they could come near the place where God would meet with them.
But now in Christ we are a spiritual people who come to God in spirit and truth.
John 4:23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
Jesus told the woman that things were changing and they would no longer need to go to a Temple to meet with God.
So the physical sacrifices were no longer needed because it wasn't necessary to cleanse the physical flesh to meet with God in spirit.
Food laws are no longer necessary to be kept separate from the world. Instead, we are sanctified by truth. We are not told to physically separate ourselves from the world, but to go out into it.
John 17:15-18 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
We now worship God in spirit and truth, not through the physical based commands of the Torah.
Wow!!! That reply would make a great rebuttal video. Yah bless
@@mr_bulow Here are a few problems to consider: 1) The ONLY biblical definition of sin is transgression of the Torah (Even Paul says so). 2) Peter says in 2Peter 3:15-19 that the reader of Paul’s letters will miss understand Paul’s writings and become Torahless. 3) Isaiah 66 speaks of eating unclean in the last days prior to the Messiahs return and it isn’t pleasant. 4) Jeremiah 31 tells us that in the new covenant He will give us His Spirit to cause us to walk in His ways (This means to keep the Torah). 5) The ONLY definition of truth is the Torah (Psalms 119). Keith did a very good job in his post. In no way is anyone here down playing the importance of Jesus (Yeshua). He kept the Torah perfectly. Our job is to walk as He walked. So, to worship Him in “Spirit and Truth” means something entirely different than the accepted Christian view. Not looking for a fight. I only reply to give the reader of these posts some additional info. Peace
@@soybeanfarmer4576 Your points are simply not true. I think people looking for the truth will see that.
The Torah is a limited presentation of the truth. It doesn't contain a full revelation of truth. For example, there is truth revealed in the NT that wasn't in the Torah. Paul called these truths, Mysteries. Some of the mysteries had to do with the church. So the Torah isn't the full revelation of truth.
Actually, Jesus is the truth.

That last bit , the new era sacrifice, sounds like another sneaky way to again dismiss the divinity of Christ
Another key passage as well is when Jesus himself says “it is finished.” 🙌❤️🙏
John 19:28-30
After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.” A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
Hebrews/Israelites and proselytes in Old Testament Judaism (*NOT Christians in New Testament Christianity*) will offer animal sacrifices again based on what is written in the Law given through Moses at Mount Sinai according to the order of Aaron and Ezekiel 40-46. The Levitical priesthood is training up in Isael now, just look up the Temple Institute. Continued animal sacrifices to cover sins every year is simply anathema to true Christians (John 19; Hebrews 10).
So this seems to be a common issue. There are more than a few problems with this question, lets address those.
1. You asked, "Does God still require animal sacrifices to atone for sin?" The answer is that the animal sacrifices never did atone for our sins. Hebrews 10 : 3-4
2. Im assuming that what you "meant to ask" is, "does God still require sacrifice?" Well this is why we give thanks over our food. The fact is, everything you eat has had its very life sacrificed so that you can continue to live. Remember you ARE the temple of God. 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 there for all things consumed by you was a temple sacrifice.
3. The blood of all the billions of sacrificed animals never ever equaled the blood spilled from one man, our messiah. remember the law is there to point to our savior....
4. The very definition of sacrifice is: "
an act of slaughtering an animal or person or surrendering a possession as an offering to God or to a divine or supernatural figure"
Why do you bless your food? BECAUSE YOUR THE TEMPLE AND THAT BURGER WAS A SACRIFICE.
Dear Dr. Solberg,
There is nobody in the Torah community today or in the Old Testament time that thought animal sacrifices were justification for sins of death. The blood of bulls and goats could not take away death. Moses knew that. David understood that justification was only through the Yeshu'ah of YHWH.
Behold, the Lamb slain at the Foundation of the World promised to Abraham was not the blood of animals!!!
Only Yahshua could take away death. Isaiah 45 explains justification.
"Yeshu'ah" is an Old Testament concept of Salvation by the Right arm of YHWH.
"Turn to Me and be saved, All the ends of the earth; for I am God,
and there is no other. have sworn by myself ; truth has gone out from My mouth, a word that will not be revoked:
Every knee will bow before Me, Every tongue will swear allegiance
24Surely they will say of Me,
"In YHWH alone are righteousness and strength.”
All who rage against Him will come to Him and be put to shame.
In YHWH all descendants of Israel will be justified....
Good vid Rob. You are articulate and very much understood. Even a cave man could get it.
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,
I never saw your short video but the answer is absolutely no. And there is nothing wrong with what you said in that video.
I think Hashem is using you to keep the Torah keepers and the Torah Movement from drifting too far from Biblical Truth. Your book and your videos are truthful and biblical.
Gentile Believers are free to obey the commandments given to Israel at Mt. Sinai and it warms my heart when Jews and Gentiles worship together under the traditions of Moses. But, you are 100% correct that all Christians, including Messianic Jewish believers such as myself, are no longer under the old covenant. We believers get to decide what traditions we wish to practice in our lives without judgement of others. As human beings we must remind ourselves that we are all brothers and sisters in Messiah Yeshua. Colossians 2:16 (I must constantly remind myself of this verse as I know it applies to me.)
This is brilliant Holy Spirit inspired logic, God bless you!

Temple has nothing to do w all sacrificial offerings- millions in OT didn’t sacrifice IN the temple , but yet for their own household
I am so grateful for this channel and these teachings!
My answer would be "No" as well. I do not follow any HRM. To credit the late Michael Heiser, the Levitical sacrifices were in place to keep the people ceremonially pure. For the Lord (in the form of His Angel) dwelt among them. He already left us a memorial to practice in the Lord's table, and the sacrifice for sins is once and for all, so it makes sense to allow the sacrifices their original function of keeping clean the sacred space on earth where Jahovah dwells (as He will once again be physically dwelling on the earth with his people). Oh, and the entire earth will be sacred space in his earthly kingdom. That is why all nations must participate.
Thank you for your ministry. It is a blessing.
I miss Dr. Hesier
That is untrue, R.L.solberb you are correct in the fact that it was commanded to perform animal sacrifices for sin atonement. But what you fail to understand is even under the Sinai that's only one method of atonement, onr such example of atonement without animals is found in Numbers 25- where pinchas killed 2 people which brought atonement. Moreover, so were coins- Exodus 30:11-16. Plus, incense brought atonement, see numbers 16:40-46.
The Scriptures point out that the Levite priests WILL NOT be re-appointed to their former glory, because not a single Levite Preist stood at the temple when it was under attack. Clearly showing by their actions that they had no longer trusted their God. Another note...The Scriptures also point out that the Levites will be house servants in the House of Jehovah.
18:45 - the ironic thing is that the 3rd Temple was built upon Jesus's body. "Destroy this temple and I will raise it up in 3 days." His Body is the 3rd Temple and it was rebuilt, via the resurrection from the dead. But what is alarming is that our Catholic friends have reimplemented the OT sacrifices in the form of the Mass, where each time the Blood and Body of Christ are reconstituted and sacrificed again. So in an ironic way, the Jewish temple sacrifices have crept back in, at least for some in the church.
To answer your simple question. Animals are not required anymore because Christ is our atonement. No need for carnal ordinances. The law still remains. (no kill, no steal, no lie etc.) That's why it's even more important now to observe the 7 feasts, the day of atonement being one of them. HE is our our Passover, our Sheaf, our First fruit. In fact, all 7 feasts are memorials of our Savior. Not Christmas. Not Easter, or any other man made holiday.
Thank you. This video sums it up perfectly.
Thank you brother Solberg for all you put into your videos.
I am sorry but this question is a red herring. In order, to even come to that question, you have assume there isn't a need for it. Which there aren't people who believe in this ideal. Moreover, the assertion assumes they didn't offer sacrifices, see Acts 21:18-26
The verse you quoted:
"truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota nor a dot will pass away from the Law until all is accomplished."
I also think that what it is saying is that until heaven and earth pass away, the whole world will be under the weight of the Law until heaven and earth pass away. That is to say, our atonement for sin is the Messiah, but unless you believe on his accomplishment, the whole world is judged by the Law.
"Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil."
There were two witnesses that die in the street of Jerusalem before Gods judgement befalls the world. Is it not the Law and Grace?
Messiah did die to atone for sin, and the Law stands as witness in judgment for those who do not believe.
“And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.”
Colossians 2:13-14
Canceled the record and “ it’s legal demands”
@@MrGaines Not sure which translation you are quoting from? NASB95 "...having canceled out the 'certificate' of debt". NKJV "...having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us,". NKJV sounds like a written citation given to you; or in your record, when you break the law - just like a 'law enforcement' officer would. NASB/NKJV both sound like a ticket is given to the lawbreaker, and the scales of justice need be balanced. So until the certificate of debt is paid, the scale is out of balance. Once paid, the certificate gets nailed but the Law remains.
Otherwise after the first speeding ticket is paid then we could all speed.
@@paulwiederhold7629 Sorry but you went on a rambling tangent of man’s logic. Lean on the spirit and not on the flesh for understanding.
@@MrGaines The Law is spiritual, Roman's 7:14 - so are we not to lean on it?
@@paulwiederhold7629 “For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.”
Romans 8:2-4
This my last statement because I have come to understood that only Jesus can free slaves and bring them into freedom.
“For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them. But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down)”
Romans 10:2-6
Just your title is a direct contradiction to Yeshua s own words in Mat 5:17-19
Nothing changed, the law requires blood… Yah shed the perfect blood that pleased God and blotted out our sins.
No law = no sin = no need for Christ as a mediator anymore…
No law = no judgement:
But we’ll all be judged…
The law is forever, God said he would put HIS laws on our hearts, not a different set of laws.
Also Heb 8:4 lets you know the law is still here.
Remember we are righteous through FAITH,
But that does not mean we can now disobey God!
It's unbelievable how they don't understand this, the problem is they try and separate Jew from Gentile, that Gentiles are Christians that make up the new church, they're sadly mistaken, the first Christians were Jews and kept the law, the covenant was made with Judah and Israel only, Gentiles have to be graffed in among Israel to be saved, you have to be converted inwardly - Romans 2:28-29.
