In Scripture, one’s characteristics or behavior shows forth who they belong to. Since Yeshua always did the behavior of his Father, he is the pen-ultimate Son of Elohim. this lesson looks at Yeshua’s perfect, miraculous life.
Once the lame man was healed, Peter began to preach another stirring message to his brethren - the men of Israel. He focuses on Yeshua being Yahweh’s servant, and how Yahweh had sent him to them, but they had rejected him. 
An exegesis of Luke 1:32b-38. I cover how Adam is a photo-type of Yeshua, and how Yeshua must be related (a descendant) of King David. Towards the end I spend time on Miriam’s question (1:34) and Gabriel’s answer (1:35). If we take away Yeshua’s virgin conception, we are taking away part of what makes him the unique Son of Elohim.
I begin exegeting Luke 1:26-38 here, and talk about young Miriam’s (Mary’s) situation in life, balancing out Catholic and Protestant “takes” on her. I then focus on Gabriel’s words in Luke 1:32a, that Yeshua would be called the “Son of the Most High.” Towards the end of the lesson I look at how the birth of Yochanan (John) is somewhat parallel with the birth of Yeshua - they were both miracle children.
When I began to sit down and write out an exegesis of Luke 1:26-38 my mind and my fingers went in another direction. I felt led to give an overview of the miracle-working power of Yahweh, and encouraging everyone to stay with the text of Scripture no matter where it leads or what the cost. I hope and pray this lesson will be a righteous influence to all who have ears to hear.
This lesson delves into deceptive healings, centering in on Matthew 7:21-23, and then goes on to show what a genuine healing looks like. The meaning of “the name of Yeshua” is covered, and the significance of the timing of a lame man being able to stand up and praise/pray is touched on. What a wonderful account this is!
I begin to move into explaining how Yeshua is the Son of Elohim by looking at the famous John 3:16 passage. It’s one that if not careful can become common to the ear in a way that makes us feel we need to “move on” from it. Towards the end of the sermon I deal with some technicalities on the Greek word monogenes.
Here’s look at the concept of the enthroned King of Israel being the son of Elohim. Psalm 2, 2 Samuel 7, 1 Chronicles 22, and 1 Chronicles 29 are all touched on. I also look at how the Hebrew word mashiyach (messiah) is used of individuals other than Yeshua of Nazareth.
There are heavenly, spirit beings that existed alongside Yahweh when He created the earth. We know them as angels, but they can equally be called messengers as well as sons of the Almighty. Listen to learn about the principle of agency as well as the guardians of sacred space. At the end I talk about how Yahweh loves us and sends His heavenly messengers to watch over us. 
Now apostles Peter and John go up to the Temple at the normal hour of prayer and end up healing a man who had been lame for over 40 years. What was the hour of prayer, and why were the apostles still participating in the Temple services? This lesson covers much about the professed “faith healers” of our day, and contrasts what we see men claiming vs. the actual gift of healing that was given to Yeshua’s apostles.
I’m taking a brief pause on my series through the Book of the Law (in Exodus) to discuss something that’s been going through my mind for a couple years. What does Scripture mean when it calls Yeshua the Son of Elohim? I cover some preliminary points here, and then move to looking at one of Elohim’s sons back in Genesis.
Yahweh’s Torah requires us to help widows and not mistreat them, but as we continue to read through Scripture we are given an outline on discerning who to help, how to help, and what kind of help to give. Yahweh’s people are not required to fund wickedness, and in times where we are required to help someone, the responsibility falls first on the immediate family.
In the first century, there was a sect in Judaism known as “The Way.” They had a great impact on all their on-lookers because they chose to live piously, with thankfulness and in simplicity. This lesson encourages us to look back on their example so that we too may have an impact on those who see us today. 
Here we walk through Scripture looking at the highlight texts that teach us one of the greatest of the commandments. In a nutshell, do not neglect widows and orphans. For anyone claiming to be Torah observant, this has got to be part of what you are regularly practicing.
Positions and Rank are not the same as the forgiveness of sins and salvation. There is still such a thing as the special treasure of physical Israel, but there is also such a thing as a non-Israelite who joins the nation of Israel to serve Yahweh. I also talk about the definition and standing of the eunuch among Israel.
If we catalog all the times Yahweh commands Israel to love and take care of the foreigner, widow, orphan, and poor person, it far outweighs any other commandment given in Torah. Some specifics of the Hebrew word ger are covered, and then I take the time to talk about when a person comes to Yahweh, He does not look at their background, last name, or ethnicity, He looks at their heart and mind.
After Peter’s sermon on the Day of Pentecost, 3,000 people were baptized, but they didn’t join the local, Christian church. Listen to learn about the promise given here and what exactly happened for these devout Jews that day. It’s important that the Messianic assemblies today do their best to mirror that early first century faith.
Whenever someone hears me talk about animal sacrifices (or reads something I’ve written), there’s almost always a few people who clap back with “Obedience is better than sacrifice!” Where do they get that from? Can that statement be substantiated from Holy Scripture?
I never really paid attention to this verse until going through the Book of the Law meticulously. We should always slow down and read each verse carefully, only then will we see the intent Yahweh brings across. Animal sacrifices are often vilified by Christians today. This verse (and many others) shows that full worship to Yahweh is not accomplished apart from animal sacrifices. 
Let’s take a look into why there’s even a law against bestiality in the Torah - not one time but in four different places. This is not something I would choose to teach on, but I teach verse-by-verse and I’m not going to leave anything out.
