Too many people are picking and choosing how they want to live and they are not following what the Bible actually says.
There is a verse in the Bible that says, "There is a path before each person that seems right but ends in death." Proverbs 14:12

Thanks again Paul! Great video! Totally hope people wake up to the unfortunate lies their Pastors teach. Their salvation is up to their desires to learn the ways of God and execute his judgements..not trust in the arm of flesh. I think when Yeshua said “some will say Lord, Lord…I will spew them out..I never knew you”…really means in our time..MOST ..not SOME..
Excellent video brother. Oh these Christians. The spirit of delusion is very strong on them. If there eyes and ears don’t open it’s going to be a terrible day when the Mashyach says to them “depart from me you who work lawlessness. I never knew you”. Very sad indeed!
Amen brother, “Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.”
Peter told us that we need be stable in the “Old Testament” in order to understand Paul’s writings “As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.”
The only law Yeshua nailed to the cross was the law of sin not the divine laws of YHVH, He is not one to lie or to change he IS
And we are His witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit whom Elohim has given to them that obey Him, Acts chapter 5, verse 32… this is Peters witness of John, chapter 14. The Spirit of God will be our Teacher and Comforter Forever… Peace
real faith = obedience. Simply put. Real faith is tangible and evident. You can “see” faith. Amein.
Amen, Brother.
Israel was comprised of 12 tribes…not just 1. Israel was divided into 2 Kingdoms, the House of Israel and the House of Judah. The House of Israel was located in the NORTH…the House of Judah was located in the SOUTH. Yahweh DIVORCED the NORTHERN kingdom.
Yeshua the “BRIDEGROOM” died for the bride (as per the law of divorce) to bring her The House of Israel back into “marriage” covenant with Yahweh once again.
Hence the GOOD news…The LOST SHEEP are allowed to come back home into the marriage once again!
+Jurist In Acts 21 Paul was FALSELY accused of doing exactly what you are accusing him of. Paul defended himself against your FALSE accusations.
Acts 21: 24 Take these men with you and share in their ·cleansing ceremony [ritual purification]. Pay their expenses so they can shave their heads [C a ritual that indicates the end of a Nazirite’s vows; Num. 6:13–20]. Then ·it will prove to everyone [L everyone will know] that what they have heard about you is not true and that you ·follow [L indeed keep/observe] the law of Moses in your own life. 25 We have already sent a letter [L with our judgment/decision] to the Gentile believers [C the decision of the council of Jerusalem; 15:6–21]. The letter said: ‘Do not eat food that has been offered to idols, or blood, or animals that have been strangled. Do not take part in sexual sin [15:20].’”
26 The next day Paul took the four men and shared in the ·cleansing ceremony [ritual purification] with them. Then he went to the Temple and announced the time when the days of the ·cleansing ceremony [ritual purification] would be finished and an ·offering [sacrifice] would be ·given [offered] for each of the men.
Paul calls “you” Jurist, a liar.
Acts 24:
13 They cannot prove the ·things they are saying [charges; accusations] against me now. 14 But I will ·tell you this [admit/confess this to you]: I worship the God of our ·ancestors [forefathers; fathers] as a follower of ·the Way of Jesus [L the Way; 22:4], which they call a ·sect [faction; cult]. But I believe everything that is ·taught in [or in agreement with; L according to] the law of Moses and that is written in the books of the Prophets.
Acts 25:8 This is what Paul said to defend himself: “I have done ·nothing wrong [committed no offense/sin/crime] against the law [L of the Jews], against the Temple, or against Caesar.”
Paul calling you a liar again Jurist…
Acts 25:11 If I have done something wrong and ·the law says I must die [L worthy of death], I do not ask to be saved from death. But if these charges are ·not true [baseless], then no one can ·give me [hand me over; or make me a gift;
Acts 26
Paul Defends Himself…from “your” accusations Jurist
5 They have known me for a long time. If they ·want [are willing] to, they can ·tell [testify to] you that I ·was a good [L lived as a] Pharisee. ·And the Pharisees obey the laws of my tradition more carefully than any other group [L …the strictest sect/party of our religion]. 6 Now I ·am [stand here] on trial because I hope for the promise that God made to our ·ancestors [forefathers; fathers; C either the hope of the Messiah or the resurrection from the dead]. 7 This is the promise that the twelve tribes of our people hope to receive as they ·serve [or worship] God day and night. My king, ·they [L the Jews] have accused me because ·I hope for this same promise [L of this hope]!
Acts 28….Paul still calling you a liar Jurist
17 Three days later ·Paul [L he] sent for the leaders of the ·Jewish community [L Jews] there. When they came together, he said, “[L Men,] Brothers, I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our ·ancestors [forefathers; fathers]. But I was ·arrested [made a prisoner] in Jerusalem and given ·to [L into the hands of] the Romans.
23 Paul and the people ·chose [arranged; appointed] a day for a meeting and on that day ·many more of the Jews [L a great number] met with Paul at the place he was staying. He spoke to them ·all day long [L from morning until evening]. Using the law of Moses and the prophets’ writings [C the whole Old Testament], he explained [L by testifying/bearing witness about] the kingdom of God, and he tried to persuade them to believe these things about Jesus.
So, we have Paul calling “you” a liar Jurist and Paul obeying the laws of Moses…
Romans 8:6-7 – For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against Elohim: for it is not subject to the law of Elohim, neither indeed can be.
Romans 3:31 – Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.
1John 3:4 – Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
Romans 2:12 – For as many as have sinned without Law will also perish without Law, and as many as have sinned in the Law will be judged by the Law 13 (for not the hearers of the Law [are] just in the sight of Yahweh, but the doers of the Law will be justified;
Romans 3:31 – Do we then make void the Law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the Law.
Romans 6:15 – What then? Shall we sin because we are not under Law but under grace? Certainly not! 16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin [leading] to death, or of obedience [leading] to righteousness?
Romans 7:12 – Therefore the Law [is] holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.
I could go on and on with Paul, calling you, and PROVING you, his accuser, a LIAR. I think it clear that you make up your own religion and try to accuse Paul like the Pharisees and Saudacees did to do so.
+Marcia Dombrowsky
Paul said he did nothing deserving of DEATH according to the Law.
Paul was right he didn’t do anything against Moses because moses was a precursor of Christ. When Christ fulfilled the LAW it is done away with. The enmity that separated Jew and Gentile is done away with.
You can argue and struggle all you want.. Paul taught the gentiles not to follow the LAW.
Paul himself calls you a liar as he was being falsly accused in Acts 21 by people just like you. Paul defended himself AGAINST you.
+Marcia Dombrowsky
No Paul wasn’t being falsely accused. He taught the Gentiles and the Jews outside of Jerusalem not to follow the law… You quote a chapter but you don’t read it.
Therefore do what we tell you: We have four men who have taken a vow. 24 Take them and be purified with them, and pay their expenses so that they may shave their heads, and that all may know that those things of which they were informed concerning you are nothing, but that you yourself also walk orderly and keep the law. 25 But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written and decided that they should observe no such thing,[d] except that they should keep themselves from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality.”
you just twisted the Scripture you heretic!. you make paul out to be a lawbreaker
What was nailed to the cross with Jesus was the PENALTY of the LAW (death)…not the LAW itself! Christians are to follow ALL of Gods LAWS just as the Apostles did as well as the earliest Christians! As far as Jesus (Yeshua ) coming back only for the lost sheep of the HOUSE of Israel… Christians ARE Israel~!
God divorced the House of Israel….but promised to come back for her. The HOUSE of Israel 10 tribes were lost into the GENTILES…
Jeremiah 3:6 The Lord said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.
7 And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
8 And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of DIVORCE; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.
3:Deut 24:4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the Lord: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
+Joshua Douma I know Joshua you’re not taking things at face value When God says you can eat anything you want any animal, that’s face value. Would you want to try to parse words oh well that was talking about reptiles and only about the eggs of reptiles.
Jurist No, eating them is not face value. Using animals “for food” is face value. Now how someone interprets that is up to them, but don’t try to influence my take on it when you haven’t gotten some context. We have so many denominations largely because people almost always seem to interpret verses at a first glance, at face value. For example, in the Bible it says all the Jews rejected Christ, but his disciples were Jewish and they didn’t reject Him. And again, you seem to gloss over “as the green herbs.” As for my “parsing” of words, I actually have done independent research…”remes” is indeed synonymous with reptiles. So in your mind, there is _no_ possibility that Noah and his family could have possibly eaten reptile eggs? Anyway, food is not something I condemn people for, even if I think that they are going about it the wrong way. Not even the Sabbath…as every man is supposed to work out their own salvation in _fear_ and _trembling_. _I_ have certainly done so, because I realize my life’s purpose is to serve Yahweh, not myself.
Jurist I know that you probably got sick of this thread, but I thought you should know that I was wrong. I humbly admit, some of what I said was true, but a lot of them were merely hypotheses (of the meaning of the verses) that I “read into the text.” You see, I replied to you while I was in the middle of my study on the 10 commandments and old law (torah). I was applying what I could in my own life, and studying intensely, but didn’t receive words of truth that I needed in it all. Then after reading Jeremiah 3 and Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, I realized that the New Covenant is a _completely new_ covenant, and I therefore should not tell you it’s a sin to not eat kosher. I feel I should apologize if I upset you in any way. I still love Paul Nison as a fellow believer, and I love some of his teachings, especially the ones on modesty. I took a similar look after him, not intending to copy him, but because I like the look; it’s simple and not revealing. Haha.
+Matthew 16:25 Ministries well I would say praise the Lord that in some way I could help you grow.
The law puffs up, but love builds up.
There is only one thing in your post that I would disagree with. Don’t apologize because you upset somebody but apologize because you were wrong. Otherwise you end up being like a politician who says something that’s true accidentally and everybody is offended and upset and then he apologizes for offending them but what he said wasn’t wrong. Remember Jesus is the rock of offense…
I would like you to do one other thing that is follow this link and buy this book.
store.kgov.com
It will make your jorney from the old covenant of the law to the new covenent of grace complete. Believe me it took all apparent contradictions out of the Bible.
Thanks for your humility, it is strength not weakness to admit you were wrong.
Jurist Thanks for the words, and link. Much appreciated.
(Roman3:28)Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
(Roman10:4) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth
(Romans10:9)That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Agree
So…the “law” was supposedly done away with because “no one” could keep it? Really? The Bible says different…
TO WITNESS:
Luke 1:Zechariah and Elizabeth
5 During the time ·Herod ruled Judea [L of Herod, king of Judea], there was a priest named Zechariah who belonged to ·Abijah’s group [the priestly division/order of Abijah; C priests were divided into twenty-four divisions; 2 Chr. 31:2]. Zechariah’s wife, Elizabeth, came from the ·family [L daughters; C female descendants] of Aaron [C brother of Moses and first high priest of Israel; for a priest like Zechariah to marry a woman of priestly ancestry was a special blessing].
6 [L Both] Zechariah and Elizabeth ·truly did what God said was good [L were righteous before God]. They ·did [followed; walked in] everything the Lord commanded and were ·without fault [blameless] in keeping his ·law [regulations; requirements].
Seems Zechariah and Elizabeth did. God also said his laws (instructions) Torah was not to HARD for us to do…
TO WITNESS:
Deuteronomy 30:11Expanded Bible (EXB)
Choose Life or Death
11 This command I ·give [command] you today is not too hard for you; it is not ·beyond what you can do…
What are His commands? I have a feeling that you presuppose that His commands are the Torah as a whole. I could be wrong, correct as is needed.
No one said anything about keeping the law perfectly? actually james 2:10
Matthew 5:17 needs to be understood in the context of the new covenant. If you understand that it refers to the whole torah then we are still to be circumcised and to keep the sabbath which means you are still under the old covenant.
Gal 3:19(until), 24,25; Heb 7:12; 8:7
From a scriptural standpoint faith is belief in God. John 20:28 blessed are those who believe and have not seen.
yet your title saya jesus lol
tell me, where is the scripture sayinh you HAVE TO USE hebrew only? so an asian or eskimo believer isnt calling on him? even though they arent using yeshua? remember this isnt allah, its jesus christ, yeshua hamaschia he examines our hearts, and knows our motives.
read James in the Bible about faith and works.
17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my] works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!
James 2:17-19
1. If we are saved by faith in Jesus why is sin a problem?..
2. Faith vs. Works – Judgment and salvation determined by one’s actual behavior (the direct evidence of true faith)
By the authority of our Father in Heaven, Christ and the angels shall judge every man according to his works – Matthew 16:2

Christ’s reward for each man is based on each man’s works – Rev. 22:12
It profits a man nothing if he has faith without works – James 2:14
“Doers” of the word are saved, those who are “hearers” only are deceiving themselves – James 1:22 (see all of 1:21-27)
Anyone can have faith alone, but one’s true faith is shown by his actual works and deeds – James 2:18
Christ states that his people do what he commands them – John 15:14
Those who pose as Christians but fail to live up to it will not be forgiven, but abandonedby Christ – Mat. 7:21-23
Christ states “If ye love me, keep my commandments”, which rules out “saved by grace alone” – John 14:15
There is a relationship between faith, works and grace, Judgment based on good works and deeds – Rev. 22:12-14
Christ’s grace is not an excuse for sin and we are judged by our actions and works – Rev. 22:12-14
Christ proves mankind’s own perception of salvation is dangerously wrong – 1 Corinthians 1:19-29
Worldly people despise Christ’s true plan of salvation and dangerously invent their own – 1 Cor. 1:19-29
Christ states the importance of keeping the commandments for eternal life – Matthew 19:16-17
Always keeping the commandments is a required way of living – Deu. 11:1
