Luke 5:4–6

When Yeshua (Jesus) commanded Simon to “launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch,” it wasn’t only to show His power. Simon and the other fishermen had spent all day fishing without anything to show for it, and suddenly with Yeshua they had far more than they could ever ask for. It was as…

Mark 12:29–31

I have a handy mnemonic for remembering the 10 commandments in two halves: Oh, I never sin, Mom! My awesome smart friend Christian. Allow me to explain:

O: One God (or no Other gods)

Mark 12:18

How fascinating that in the time of Yeshua’s (Jesus’) ministry, there had arisen a sect of Judaism that did not believe in the resurrection.

Many people, without a comprehensive knowledge of the scriptures, do not realize that resurrection (and eternal life) was a common theme in…

Mark 4:14–20

The parable of the sower explained.

Anyone involved in evangelism or ministry should take this parable to heart. It’s important to think about the real-world applications of the 4 scenarios described here: seed devoured by birds, seed that sprang up too quickly and was scorched…

Matthew 23:29–31

We often like to think that had we been present at the trial of Yeshua (Jesus), we would not have condemned Him to death. But I am a firm believer that we are no better than those who came before us. We are sinners just like all humanity throughout history. We can’t say with any certainty that we…

Matthew 22:41–46

Matthew 21:9

The multitudes recognized that Yeshua (Jesus) was coming as spiritual successor to King David, one of the forerunners (along with Joseph the suffering servant) to the Jewish Messiah. HOSHIANNA (Hosanna) is the Hebrew word for SAVE PLEASE. While the chief priests and scribes were unwilling to recognize…

Matthew 21:5

When a king would leave town on a horse, that was a symbol of going to war. When a king would enter town on a donkey, that was a symbol of peace. Everything Yeshua (Jesus) did had great significance; even seemingly minor actions should be studied intensely.

Matthew 8:31–34

I will never stop laughing at these foolish people who, upon seeing the miracle of Yeshua (Jesus) casting out the demons, would be more concerned about the loss of their pigs than getting to know the Son of God!

Matthew 7:14

Narrow is the gate. Do you ever feel that some evangelists try to widen the gate by making the good news (gospel) more accessible / friendly / comfortable for people? Do you ever think that some people are “dumbing down” the Word in order to appeal to a bigger audience? I have often felt that way and…
