In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down chapter 1 of the book of James (Ya’akov)…

• How do we prove our belief?

• Of what do we have to prove ourselves worthy?

• What is the Creator’s “love language”?

• To whom did James write his letter?

• How is endurance beneficial?

• Are you struggling with something?

• What is the “Simple Battle of Life”?

• Why do you find it challenging at times to walk out the Covenant?

• What does ‘double-minded’ mean?

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, enabling you to do it and receive the blessings.

What do Diamonds and Humans have in Common? Carbon. Did you know Jeremiah 17:1 was blotted out of the scriptures for hundreds of years but then ended up back in there? Are you a precious gemstone or are you glass? Are you building your house on shifting sand or The Rock? Are you truly trusting in and serving the One True God or a man made version? Are you living in The Kingdom or practicing a religion? Are you going to crack under pressure (tribulation) or harden into a diamond? These are all different ways to ask essentially the same biblical question. Today we are going to share with you what I believe to be a very profound message that has brought clarity to me today with regard to the extreme pressing that I personally have been feeling for at least the last year and has been getting heavier and heavier the last 6 months or so. Many brothers and sisters I know have also been dealing with very heavy issues lately both spiritual and physical. So we share this message hoping you will also be helped and encourage if you are also being pressed.  FOR MORE MESSAGES LIKE THIS ONE VISIT https://www.HisWordHeals.com/blog

Parsha “Kedoshim” (Leviticus chapters 19 through 21) is another one of those that most of us have heard is not just “Old” Testament, and thus “done away with,” but full of stuff that we now find insufficiently WOKE to even be allowed to discuss. Prohibitions on “sorcery” and seances and “Gay Sex” – who could imagine how bigoted and certainly some kinda-phobic that is? People will no doubt soon – when the Aliens get revealed – be punished for even reading it.

Too bad that’s no longer even hyperbole.

And ironically, while even the ‘Whore Church’ still, at least occasionally, quotes the part about “be Holy because The LORD is holy,” even if they spin that, most folks would prefer, and have been TAUGHT to, ignore what that actually means.

The Erev Shabbat reading lays out more of the details WHAT that is, and a bit of WHY it’s now, at best, passe’. More importantly, though, given what’s now ‘in-progress’ – the text makes it pretty clear it’s also deadly.

Mark begins the Sabbath Day midrash with an explanation of the title of teaching for this week, and a bit of the irony of how the word “HOLY” has come to mean pretty much the opposite of what His Words says we are to be: Set Apart. From exactly some of what we’ve been taught.

And now that the “Alien Deception” is, one way or another, in Full Swing, how will people who don’t even understand what we are to be Set Apart TO, recognize what they have already been set apart FROM, and why?

The infamous “Clergy Response Team” was put in place years ago to push the Government-Inspired Version (GIV) twisting of Romans 13. Today, a similar plot is being unleashed to convince ‘christianity’ that what they are planning to release will “shake their faith.” Since so many have accepted, as Paul warned, “another jesus, whom we have NOT preached,” they’ve already been set up.

Kedoshim: “VERY ‘Familiar Spirits’ – Coming Soon to a Theater Near YOU!”

The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

It started with what looked like more war, and an escalation. But then it got weird.

One way or another, that amounts to some type of community. We may not have much choice when it comes to some neighbors, but it’s certainly important to understand the character of those whom we may choose to come to trust.

When “times get tough” – and they not only already seem to be, but we have been told will – it may be difficult to know how even those closest to us might behave under great stress.

What can we do? And can we hope to identify, at least in part, the Remnant?

“When Faith Meets Falsehood”

As he continues in Ephesians chapter 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson untangles common misunderstandings about disobedience, sin, covenant, and what it truly means to love Messiah Yeshua.

• What are “empty words”?

• What does it mean to be “a partaker with them”?

• Who are you to “have no fellowship with”?

From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to 1 Timothy chapter 1 and explains how some have missed the goal of the command given by Paul to his disciple, namely a clean heart, a good conscience, and a sincere belief, and have turned aside to senseless talk, some even teaching that the Torah no longer applies to us today, just that we believe and love Messiah.

Then Rabbi Berkson moves us to 2 Peter chapter 1, where we see Peter telling us that we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises by the righteousness of our Elohim and Savior Messiah Yeshua. Rabbi Berkson also points out that belief in Elohim and His Messiah is just the foundation, and that you need to “add” to that foundation certain things.

• What is “Kingdom Access”?

Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

And two of those have had to do with a ‘plague’ that hasn’t been seen for centuries, at least. Most of us have also been told that the things described in THIS one, too, are “old testament,” and “done away with.” Arguably, it’s even MORE wrong here!

Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a story that only begins there. And if you find the connections valuable, please forward the message to those who might be blessed by it.

The Erev Shabbat reading lays out the story, beginning “after the death,” and tells us, over and over again, in fact, that the “statutes” described are to be “forever,” and even tells us the consequences of the Big Lie that they’re not:

The story tells us “after the death,” of Aarons sons, Nadab and Abihu, that there are things that must be done, in accord with His Instruction, so that those who do so, WHEN He says so, “die not.” And then it follows with the description of the “two goats,” one for YHVH, and the other for “Azazel.” It might seem that the ‘picture’ represented by the ritual is fairly clear, and yet it’s not a ‘perfect fit’ for what Yahushua did – for several reasons.

Mark begins the Sabbath Day midrash with those, and the fact that most of what — in this instance, certainly — must be called what it is, now too often ignored. Even though He says it remains a “statute forever.” And says it three times even.

Many people with a ‘sunday-school’ background will remember the line from Hebrews that “it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.” But they ignore the context, and the lesson of the distinction between sin committed “in ignorance” (Hebrews 9:7) and knowing and deliberate rebellion to Him.

For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Hebrews 10:26-27

This parsha then goes on to directly outline some of those things, which much of the world, and the ‘Whore Church’ which at minimum tacitly accepts, even promotes, YHVH warns about. Some — like things taught in the Publik Cesspools, and mandated by social pressures and tax subsidies — which are called “abomination,” and carry a death penalty. And they “defile the land,” which is why, He concludes, they were, and are, “vomited out” of it.

We ‘cannot serve two masters.’ Which will it be?

The combined two-part reading and Sabbath midrash:

It started with yet another attempted assassination, a couple of (finally) well-deserved arrests and indictments, and no shortage of spin. But the questions remain the same.

And many of the Lies, too, have gotten pretty obvious.
