There have been a lot of things that have seemed really jumbled for me in the past year and I couldn’t understand how they all fit together… until today! Surrender and Slavery I was listening to Dutch Sheets speak about Intercessory prayer, and something he said suddenly just clicked! God created man (Adam) to be…
One of the things I’ve struggled with as I’ve dug more deeply into our Hebrew roots is the role of Yeshua and Torah in all of this. Trying to sort out fact from fiction when much of my upbringing has been saturated in tradition isn’t the easiest thing to do. Recently Skip Moen posted several…
Psalm 91:15-16 He will call upon me and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. With a long life I will satisfy him and let him see my salvation. Want to hear something cool? Do you know that the word for salvation is yeshua? …
Psalm 21:1-5 For the choir director. A Psalm of David. O LORD, in Your strength the king will be glad, And in Your salvation how greatly he will rejoice! You have given him his heart’s desire, And You have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah. For You meet him with the blessings of good things; You set a crown of fine gold on his head. He asked life of You, You gave it to him, Length of…
Psalm 119:41 Let Your mercies come also to me, O LORD– Your salvation according to Your word. I almost hesitate to even try to dig into this verse. Salvation is a confusing and misused word in a lot of ways, and I’m still trying to wrap my mind about it. But, oh well. My ten…
If you’re happy in your view of life, love, God, and salvation, you might want to stop reading now. I’ve been reading a book called Pagan Christianity (Frank Viola and George Barna) and it’s all about the origins of the church and our traditional church service. One thing I found out in the mini-history of the…
Today’s post is redirection to Skip’s post this morning… mainly because my little man, G. has decided that 5:30am is NOT too early to be up… So not much peace will ensue from this point until 6am when he’s actually allowed out of bed. Anyhow, the imagery in this post is haunting (to say the…
Not everyone I know likes Skip Moen’s digging and teaching and viewpoint, but he makes a point in his post today that really states why I am so fascinated by his understanding: When we read Scripture, we enter the world of Hebrew culture. The more we are able to grasp that view of reality, the…
I keep running into the question of the Law vs. Salvation and how they are connected or not connected. Skip did a post about the link between Moses’ Law and Jesus’ Salvation. I was going to just put a link here, but I know that most of the time nobody ever follows the link…. So,…
Romans 10:3 For they don’t understand God’s way of making people right with himself. Instead, they are clinging to their own way of getting right with God by trying to keep the law. They won’t go along with God’s way. Man! Isn’t this the human way to do things? God has a way for us…
