Many Get It Wrong Describing Savior Yahshua: Here’s the Truth!

Many Get It Wrong Describing Savior Yahshua: Here's the Truth!
Most people, including many religious leaders, get it very wrong when describing Yahshua the Messiah

In this blog post and podcast, I will expose why many get it wrong when describing Savior Yahshua: here’s the truth!—it’ll set you free.

Welcome to today’s episode of educational podcast, where we dive deep into the heart of the Bible and true faith. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re tackling a topic that’s been painted—quite literally—misconception or wrong for centuries: the physical and glorified appearance of Yahshua Messiah. Join me as I explore and challenge you why knowing Yahshua’s true appearance is vital for honoring these holy days and deepening our faith.

As we commemorate the Holy Days of Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread this week, we’re reminded that these sacred moments are all about Yahshua Messiah—our Passover Lamb and Bread of Life. But to truly know him, we need to see past the long-haired images of art and movies. The Bible paints a different picture in 1 Corinthians 11:14, Isaiah 53:2, and Revelation 1:14-15. Are you ready to learn the real truth about Yahshua? Let’s get started, shall we?

Let’s set the stage. Picture this: you’re flipping through a coffee table book of Renaissance art, or maybe you’re watching a Hollywood blockbuster about the life of Yahshua. What do you see? A tall, ethereal figure with piercing blue eyes, a perfectly groomed beard, and long, wavy hair cascading over his shoulders. It’s an image so ingrained in our culture that it feels almost sacred. But here’s the thing—it’s not biblical. Not even close. The Bible gives us some clear clues about what Jesus actually looked like, and they don’t match the Hollywood version. So, where did people go wrong, and what does scripture really say?

Let’s start with the hair. For years, artists have depicted Yahshua with long, flowing locks, but the apostle Paul has something to say about that in 1 Corinthians 11:14. He writes, “Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him?” Now, Paul’s writing this in the context of cultural norms and spiritual principles in the early church, but the implication is clear: long hair on men wasn’t the standard for holiness in this time and place. Yahshua, as a Jewish man living in first-century Judea, would’ve followed the customs of his day. Short hair was the norm for men—practical, modest, and aligned with the cultural expectations of a devout Jew. So, that iconic long-haired Yahshua? It’s more a product of medieval European art than biblical reality!

But it’s not just about the hair. Let’s talk about Yahshua’s overall appearance as a man walking the earth. If you’re imagining a chiseled, glowing figure who stood out in a crowd, think again! Isaiah 53:2 gives us a striking description of the Messiah: “He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.” Let that sink in! Yahshua wasn’t some larger-than-life, movie-star-handsome guy. He was ordinary. Regular. The kind of person you’d pass on the street without a second glance. This is huge because it challenges the idea that Yahshua’s physical presence was meant to dazzle or impress. His power wasn’t in his looks—it was in his words, his actions, and his divine identity! The world’s been obsessed with glamorizing Yahshua, but the Bible paints him as relatable, approachable, and human.

Now, don’t get me wrong—Yahshua’s earthly appearance isn’t the whole story. There’s another side to this, and it’s mind-blowing! Fast forward to the book of Revelation, where we get a glimpse of Yahshua as a glorified spiritual being. In Revelation 1:14-15, John describes a vision of the risen Messiah: “His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters.” This isn’t the humble carpenter from Nazareth anymore. This is Yahshua in his divine, heavenly glory—radiant, powerful, and awe-inspiring. His hair, now white as snow, isn’t about length but about purity and authority. His blazing eyes and glowing feet speak to his divine majesty. This is the Yahshua who reigns, the one who transcends human limitations and shines with the glory of Yahweh!

So, why does all this matter? Because most people, including many religious leaders have been getting it wrong for too long! The long-haired, Europeanized Jesus of art and media has shaped our perceptions, but it’s time to let scripture set the record straight. Yahshua wasn’t a figure crafted to fit our aesthetic ideals. As a man, he was ordinary—short-haired, unremarkable, one of us. As the glorified Son of Yahweh, he’s beyond our wildest imaginations, radiating divine power. This truth isn’t just about correcting a historical image; it’s about understanding who Yahshua really is. He’s not a distant icon or a Hollywood caricature. He’s the Savior who walked among us in humility and now reigns in glory.

Therefore, today I want to challenge all of you. Yes, it’s now time to let go of the old images of our Savior! Reimagine Yahshua as the Bible describes him. Picture a regular guy with short hair, blending into the crowd, yet carrying the weight of the world’s salvation. Then, see him as John did—glorious, radiant, and eternal. This is the Yahshua of scripture, and it’s time for all of humanity to know him as he truly is!

As we wrap up today’s episode, let’s carry this truth forward: the Holy Days of Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread center on Yahshua—our Savior and King. To celebrate him correctly and genuinely, we must know the real Yahshua, not the long-haired myth of art, but the biblical reality: an ordinary man with short hair (1 Corinthians 11:14, Isaiah 53:2) and the glorified Messiah of Revelation 1:14-15, radiant with divine glory. Knowing his true appearance grounds our faith and protects us from deception! So, as we honor these holy days, let’s worship the Yahshua of scripture with clarity and devotion.

I’m sure that many of you are surprised by these things I have discussed today, but I’d like you to know that spreading the Bible truths is very crucial in our ministry. We truly care about our readers and listeners and we want them to learn the genuine messages of the Holy Scripture.

The Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Thru Time and Faith

The Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Thru Time and Faith
The Feast of Unleavened Bread is a True Bible Holy Day from Yahweh not to be Forgotten by humanity

The Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Thru Time and Faith

Hello to all our readers and listeners out there. Welcome to the educational podcast, your home for genuine biblical truths! I’m Elder Dan, your host. In this message, we’re stepping into a time machine to explore a fascinating festival straight from the pages of Scripture: the Feast of Unleavened Bread. This sacred celebration carries very profound meaning from past to present and the future!

Also, today we’re diving into a curious question: why isn’t the Feast of Unleavened Bread—a legitimate holy day straight from the Bible’s pages—preached from most pulpits? From the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, this seven-day festival was Yahweh’s command to remember His deliverance, and Yahshua Himself observed it. Yet, many religious leaders skip right over it. Is it tradition, theology, or something else? I want you all to pay full attention, and let’s unpack this mystery together!

Picture this: it’s over 3,000 years ago, and the Israelites are on the brink of a life-changing moment. They’re about to escape slavery in Egypt, guided by Almighty Yahweh’s mighty hand through Moses. In Exodus 12:17-20, Yahweh lays down the blueprint for a festival to commemorate this deliverance—a seven-day event called the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The instructions are clear: “You shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt.” No leaven—yeast, that is—allowed in any bread for a full week. Every household had to purge their homes of it. Why? Leaven often symbolized sin or corruption in Scripture, and this feast was about purity, haste, and trust in Yahweh’s provision.

Now, let’s zoom in on why this mattered. The Israelites left Egypt in such a rush that their bread didn’t have time to rise—hence, unleavened bread, or matzah, became a tangible reminder of Yahweh’s swift rescue. Leviticus 23:6 doubles down on this, marking the feast as a sacred time starting the day after Passover, from the 15th to the 21st of the month of Nisan. It was a week of eating flat, crunchy bread, gathering with family, and reflecting on Yahweh’s faithfulness. I mean, imagine the stories swapped over those meals—grandparents telling kids about the Red Sea parting, the plagues, the angel of death passing over their homes. Powerful, right?

But here’s where it gets even more interesting. This wasn’t just a one-and-done event for ancient Israel. The Feast of Unleavened Bread was woven into the fabric of Jewish life, observed year after year. And guess who grew up keeping this tradition? None other than Yahshua Himself. In Luke 2:41, we catch a glimpse of a 12-year-old Yahshua heading to Jerusalem with His parents for Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Picture young Yahshua, wide-eyed, soaking in the sights of the temple, the smell of freshly baked matzah, and the hum of prayers all around. This wasn’t just a cultural thing—Yahshua was living out the rhythms of Yahweh’s law, connecting to His people’s story.

Fast-forward to His adult years, and Yahshua is still observing this feast. In Matthew 26:17, we see Him preparing to celebrate with His disciples on the first day of Unleavened Bread, right before His crucifixion. This is huge, folks. Yahshua wasn’t just checking a religious box—He was about to transform the meaning of this feast forever!

Let’s flip to the New Testament, specifically John 6:48-58, where Yahshua drops a bombshell: It says, “I am the bread of life.” He’s speaking to a crowd, and He goes deeper, saying, “Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” Now, this wasn’t about literal bread or cannibalism—Yahshua was pointing to His sacrifice, His body broken for us, His blood shed to forgive sins. The Feast of Unleavened Bread, with its focus on pure, sinless bread, suddenly takes on a whole new layer. Yahshua is the ultimate unleavened bread—without sin, broken for our freedom, offering eternal life to anyone who trusts in Him!

Think about it: the Israelites ate unleavened bread to remember their physical deliverance from Egypt. Now, Yahshua invites us to partake in Him—through faith, through communion—to celebrate our spiritual deliverance from sin and death. It’s like Yahweh was painting a picture in Exodus and Leviticus, and Yahshua steps in to complete the masterpiece.

So, what does this mean for us today? The Feast of Unleavened Bread isn’t just a dusty Old Testament ritual—it’s a bridge to understanding Yahweh’s big plan. Yahshua observed it as a child, celebrated it as an adult, and fulfilled it as our Savior. It’s a reminder to clear out the “leaven” or sins in our lives—those things that pull us away from Yahweh—and to feast on the true Bread of Life, who gives us forgiveness and hope that lasts forever.

Whether you’re someone who’s curious about the Bible or a longtime believer, this feast invites us all to pause and reflect. What’s weighing you down that needs to go? How can you lean into the freedom Yahshua offers?

Well, folks, that’s the important wrap on our dive into why the Feast of Unleavened Bread—this biblical holy day rich with meaning—rarely gets airtime in today’s pulpits. Whether it’s the pull of tradition, a focus on New Testament themes, or just a drift from Old Testament roots, one thing’s clear: this feast still points us to Yahweh’s deliverance and Yahshua as the Bread of Life. So, maybe it’s time we dust off these Scriptures ourselves and rediscover their power! We hope this message for the Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Through Time and Faith helps you in your spiritual journey.

I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!

Passover Holy Day Memorial: A Command with High Stakes

Passover Holy Day Memorial: A Command with High Stakes
The timeless call of Yahweh for all His people to observe the Passover holy day annually in spring

Passover Holy Day Memorial: A Command with High Stakes from Yahweh is a topic of crucial importance that I’d like to share today.

Hello to all our readers and listeners out there! Welcome back to the educational podcast —your podcast for genuine and timeless biblical truths that shape our world. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re stepping into something ancient, something sacred, something that still echoes with meaning thousands of years later. We’re talking about Passover—the memorial holy day straight out of the Bible that’s more than just a tradition. Yes. It’s a call, a command, and a celebration with some serious stakes attached! So, settle in, pay attention, and let’s unpack this crucial topic together.

If you would rather listen to this, just click the play button below. 🙂

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

Let’s start in the Old Testament where Passover first shows up, shall we? Leviticus 23:5 lays it out plain and simple: It says, “In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight, is Yahweh’s Passover.” There it is! No fluff, no ambiguity. Here, Yahweh setting a date on the calendar. Then, over in Deuteronomy 16:1, we get a little more flavor: It says, “Observe the month of Abib and keep the Passover to Yahweh your Elohim, for in the month of Abib, Yahweh, your Elohim, brought you out of Egypt by night.” This isn’t just a random holy day, folks. It’s a memorial—a living memory when Almighty Yahweh, our Father in heaven, flexed His might, broke the chains of slavery, and led His people out of Egypt. Think about that. Plagues, a parted sea, a nation reborn! Yes, Passover is the ultimate holy reminder of a “do not forget where you came from” moment in the history of mankind and the universe!

But here’s where it gets real. Commemorating the Passover is not optional. Yahweh didn’t say, “Hey, if you’re feeling up for it, maybe throw a little Passover party.” No, this is a divine appointment! And if you skip it? Well, Numbers 9:13 pulls no punches: It says, “But if anyone who is clean and is not on a journey fails to keep the Passover, that person shall be cut off from his people, because he did not bring Yahweh’s offering at its appointed time; that man shall bear his sin.” Did you catch those? Cut off from His people? Bearing your sin? Yes, they are heavy! Indeed, it’s a stark reminder that ignoring Passover is not just missing a meal—it’s rejecting a covenant, a connection to Yahweh’s deliverance! There’s a cost to apathy here, and the Bible doesn’t sugarcoat it!

Now, let’s fast-forward a bit. The Old Testament sets the stage, but the New Testament brings this story into a whole new light. Enter the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 5:7. He’s writing to the church in Corinth, and he drops this bombshell: It says, “For Messiah, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.” Did you catch that? Paul’s connecting the dots—Passover is not just about remembering Egypt anymore. Yes, it’s about Yahshua the Messiah! He’s saying Yahshua is the Passover lamb, the ultimate sacrifice that doesn’t just free us from Pharaoh, but from sin itself! Paul’s telling us the Passover holy day is not some dusty relic; yes, it is very much alive, pointing straight to the stake!

And speaking of Yahshua—let’s talk about the man Himself. Did He celebrate Passover? Of course, He did! Flip over to Luke 22:7-13, and we see Yahshua gearing up for the big day: It says, “Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. So Yahshua sent Apostles Peter and John, saying, ‘Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it.” Yes, Yahshua’s not just tagging along here—He’s leading the celebration! And in Matthew 26:17-21, we get another glimpse: “Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Yahshua saying, ‘Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the Passover?” Yahshua does not brush it off or say, “No, we’re good.” Instead, He dives in because Passover matters! Indeed, it is personal, and it is powerful to Him and His disciples! And if the Son of Yahweh Himself made time for it, shouldn’t we also pay attention?

So what’s the takeaway here, friends? Do not forget, as it is very clear: Passover is not just a Jewish thing or an Old Testament thing—it is a heavenly thing from Almighty Yahweh! From the Torah of Leviticus to Deuteronomy, it’s a command rooted in deliverance. Numbers warns us there’s a heavy price to pay for ignoring the Passover! Paul ties it to Yahshua, the Lamb who changes everything. And Yahshua as the Savior of humanity? Yes, He did not just talk about it—He lived it, celebrated it, and transformed it into something eternal!

Now, here’s my challenge for you: do not let the commemoration of Passover pass you by. Whether you’re celebrating holy days, baking unleavened bread, or just cracking open your Bible to reflect, Passover is a chance to remember—not just what Yahweh did back then, but what He’s still doing now. Because when we skip it, we’re not just missing a meal. Yes, we’re missing a moment to stand in awe of an Elohim in heaven who saves!

As the sun sets and the stars begin to twinkle, the timeless story of Passover unfolds once more—a tale of liberation, faith, and divine promise that echoes through the ages. Yet, in the hustle of modern life, this sacred biblical holiday often fades into the background, overlooked by so many who miss its profound significance. To celebrate Passover is to step into a living narrative, to taste the unleavened bread of haste and the bitter herbs of struggle, and to honor a covenant that shaped history. It’s a call to remember not just the exodus from Egypt, but the enduring truth that freedom is a gift worth cherishing. While the world spins on, distracted by fleeting trends, those who pause to observe Passover reclaim a heritage rich with meaning—a defiant act of remembrance that whispers, this is who we are. So, let us raise our cups, not just in tradition, but in awe, for in keeping Passover, we don’t merely recount the past—we revive its power for today!

Click here to read and learn more about the differences between the sacred Holy Days and the secular holidays. And yes, the Passover holy day memorial is a command with high stakes attached for those who are disobeying it!

Brethren, before I go, let me pray this prayer for you: May Yahweh bless you and keep you; may Yahweh make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may Yahweh lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace. I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!

True Belief in Yahshua Must Show Active Faith

True Belief in Yahshua Must Show Active Faith
The Bible tells us to show our true faith in Savior Yahshua thru our repentant and obedient actions

True belief in Yahshua must show active faith. What is it? Today, I will focus on true faith message and will be tackling an incredibly thought-provoking topic, which is the relationship between belief in Yahshua the Messiah, obedience to Yahweh’s laws, and the journey towards repentance and salvation—a journey rooted in James 2:19.

Hello to our readers and listeners! Welcome back to Educational Podcast, the podcast where we dive deep into the realms of genuine Bible truths, heavenly beliefs with actions, and spiritual growth. I’m Elder Dan, your host.

If you would rather listen to this, just click the play button below. 🙂

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

Now, if you’re familiar with the book of James, you might recall its powerful assertion in Chapter 2, Verse 19. It says, “You believe that there is one Elohim. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.” That’s a bold statement, isn’t it? It challenges us to think seriously about what it really means to believe and what that belief should lead us to do in our lives.

Let’s start with a story—a relatable journey many of us might experience. Picture this: John is a young man who, after years of searching, finds a sense of peace in his belief in Elohim. He starts attending church, reading scripture, and engaging with the community. At first, everything seems to align perfectly. John’s career is flourishing, relationships are improving, and he’s feeling more content than ever.

But as we know, life isn’t always smooth sailing. Challenges arise. John encounters moral dilemmas at work, struggles with personal integrity, and faces temptations that test his faith. In these moments, he recalls his belief—the warm and comforting embrace of knowing Yahweh is with him. However, he soon realizes that his faith seems shallow amidst life’s trials.

This leads to our first reflection: What does true faith look like? Is it simply an acknowledgment that Elohim exists, or is it something that demands action? James pushes us towards the latter. When we just believe, we may miss the opportunity for true transformation. It’s in the obedience to Yahweh’s commands that our belief takes root and flourishes!

When John experiences a crisis of conscience at work—perhaps his boss asks him to cut corners—he is faced with a decision. It’s in this choice where his belief is tested, transforming into action. He remembers the teachings of Messiah Yahshua about honesty and integrity and decides to stand firm on those principles, despite the potential backlash.

Now, let’s pause here. I want you to think about your own experiences. How have you navigated challenges where faith required action? Have you found it easy or difficult to align your actions with your beliefs?

John’s choice to act in accordance with Elohim’s laws leads him toward repentance, recognizing areas in his life that need change. That’s where the beauty lies! Repentance isn’t just an apology; it’s a reorientation—a heartfelt turn toward what is right. It’s through that obedience that John feels a deep sense of fulfillment and connection with Yahweh, offering him not just salvation but a life that reflects the love of Yahshua.

But here’s where it gets even more critical, folks. Many religious leaders today are preaching a message that simply believing is enough for salvation—that we don’t need to worry about actions, because Yahshua Messiah already paid the price for our sins on the stake. They might tell you, “Just believe, and you’re saved!” This very popular teaching might sound comforting, but I have to tell you—it’s a big lie! It’s a wrongful teaching that can lead many astray!

You see, when we allow ourselves to be convinced that belief alone suffices, we risk neglecting the call to obedience and the beauty of repentance. John, in our story, not only wrestles with belief but also recognizes that true faith demands an active response. He understands that without his actions reflecting his beliefs, his faith remains incomplete.

True obedience isn’t merely a set of rules; it’s a heartfelt expression of love for Yahweh and an acknowledgement of His sovereignty in our lives. When John puts his faith into action—standing by his convictions—he embarks on a path toward genuine repentance. This reorientation requires us to continuously seek alignment with Elohim’s will, as it transforms our lives and the lives of others around us.

Yes, repentance isn’t just an apology; indeed, it’s a necessary step toward true redemption and salvation. We need to remember that when we act in accordance with Elohim’s laws, we embody the teachings of Yahshua and strive to live a life that reflects His love. It’s through this, not mere belief, that we cultivate a vibrant relationship with Yahweh!

And yes, this spiritual journey isn’t about being perfect. Here, the apostle James challenges all of us, not to perform flawlessly, but to live authentically. Yahweh isn’t asking for perfection; He wants our hearts and our willingness to respond. When we live out our faith through actions, we ignite a transformative process within ourselves and those around us.

To wrap up today’s episode, let’s remember that a vibrant faith goes beyond mere belief. It’s about aligning our actions with our convictions, embracing repentance as a necessary step toward salvation, and living out Elohim’s commands in every area of our lives.

Yes, true belief in Yahshua must show active faith. If we don’t repent of our sins and follow all that the Savior says in the Bible, we can’t really believe in Him! So, dear readers, I encourage you all to reflect on these words on how you can live your faith out loud. What small actions can you take to express your beliefs in tangible ways? How can you become a beacon of light for others as you walk this courageous, spiritual path?

The Emerging New World Order of Nations

Many Get It Wrong Describing Savior Yahshua: Here's the Truth!
A new world order and emerging alliances of many countries that will eventually fight against Israel

Hello, listeners! Welcome to our latest podcast episode titled, The Emerging New World Order of Nations. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re diving into the fascinating world of biblical prophecy related to the state of global geopolitics that’s now taking shape right before our eyes.

If you would rather listen to this, just click the play button below. 🙂

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

The Rise of BRICS+

As I speak, a seismic shift is occurring in the global landscape. The BRICS coalition, originally comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, has recently expanded to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. This new alliance, dubbed BRICS+, now represents a staggering 40% of global trade and half of the world’s population.

The BRICS+ alliance is positioning itself as an alternative to Western-dominated institutions, seeking to create parallel systems in various sectors:

  • Energy trading
  • Development finance
  • Foreign exchange transactions
  • Technology cooperation

The Middle East Realignment

The inclusion of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Iran in BRICS+ signals a significant shift in Middle Eastern dynamics. These nations, traditionally at odds, are now finding common ground in economic cooperation and shared interests in challenging Western hegemony.

China’s Growing Influence

China emerges as a key player in this new world order, leveraging the opportunity presented by Western retreat to expand its sphere of influence. As the heavyweight in the BRICS+ group, China is at the forefront of challenging U.S. dominance and promoting an alternative model of globalization.

The Role of Technology and Cyber Warfare

The new world order is not just about physical alliances but also digital ones. We’re seeing the rise of new financial systems based on cryptocurrencies and increased cooperation in fields like AI and outer space technology. Simultaneously, cyber warfare has become a critical component of geopolitical strategy, with nations like Russia allegedly meddling in elections worldwide.

The Coming Eventual Decline of Western Dominance

As BRICS+ gains momentum, we’re witnessing a corresponding decline in Western influence. The United States, long considered the architect of the post-World War II global order, is now seen as a destabilizing force under certain leadership. This has led to a weakening of traditional alliances and a reevaluation of international institutions such as NATO, the UN, and the IMF.

The Prophetic Perspectives

Interestingly, this realignment of nations and the focus on Israel aligns with biblical prophecies found in Isaiah 60-62. These passages speak of a time when nations will gather, some to bring tribute to Israel, but ultimately culminating in a confrontation.

Yes, Isaiah envisions a future where “nations and kings will come to Yahweh’s light,” but also warns that “the nation or kingdom that will not serve Yahweh will perish; it will be utterly ruined.” This dual nature of nations’ approach to Israel – some seeking to align and others to destroy – reflects the complex geopolitical landscape we see forming today.

A New World Order

This expansion isn’t just about economics; it’s a clear challenge to the Western-dominated global order. BRICS+ is positioning itself as an alternative to traditional power structures, aiming to create parallel systems in energy trading, development finance, and even technology cooperation.

The Illusion of Peace

Now, here’s where things get really interesting. As these new alliances form, there’s a growing chorus of “Peace and safety!” echoing around the world. It’s as if mankind believes we’ve finally achieved that elusive goal of world peace.

But listeners, let me remind you of a powerful verse from the Bible. In 1 Thessalonians 5:3, it says, “For when they say, ‘Peace and safety!’ then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.”

The Gathering Storm

This brings us to a chilling prophecy found in the book of Zechariah. In Zechariah 12:3, Yahweh states, “On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it.”

Furthermore, Zechariah 14:1 warns, “Behold, the day of Yahweh comes, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle.”

The Ultimate Objective

What we’re seeing unfold on the world stage today eerily aligns with these ancient prophecies. The nations of the world, despite their current calls for peace, seem to be positioning themselves for a confrontation centered around Israel.

Don’t Let Unbiblical Myths Overshadow Genuine Bible Truths

The Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Thru Time and Faith
Do not let deceived preachers fool you by their myths teachings that overshadow Bible truths

Don’t let unbiblical myths overshadow genuine Bible truths is the topic of our heavenly message for this podcast. Hello! I’m Elder Dan, your host.

Greetings, beloved family in Yahshua! Welcome back to educational podcast, the podcast that navigates genuine biblical teachings and timeless wisdom. I’m so grateful that you’ve chosen to join us today as we delve into a topic that stirs my spirit deeply—the importance of preaching the true gospel of the Messiah!

If you would rather listen to this, just click the play button below. 🙂

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

Today, we’re diving into a profound and often unsettling topic found in 2 Timothy 4:3-4. It says, “For the time is coming when people will not endure sound doctrine, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.”

This scripture warns us about a time when people, driven by their own desires, will eschew sound doctrine for enticing fables. Buckle up as we explore what this means for us today, along with some personal stories and thought-provoking insights.

As an elder of this cherished community, I bear a profound responsibility to share not just any message, but the message—the unadulterated gospel that transformed my life and continues to change the hearts of countless others. In a world that seems increasingly lost in confusion, where opinions and ideologies battle for dominance, it is our sacred calling to lift high the banner of Yahshua, proclaiming the truth with clarity, love, and conviction.

The gospel isn’t merely a collection of moral teachings or inspiring anecdotes. It is the powerful story of Almighty Yahweh’s redemptive love, a narrative woven through the fabric of history that culminates in the life, death, and resurrection of our Master. It’s the message that invites every one of us into a life-altering relationship with our Creator—a message that is timeless, yet desperately needed today.

In this episode, I’ll explore the significance of authentic gospel preaching—why it matters not just within the walls of our church but extends out to our communities and the world. I will discuss the call to counter the misleading narratives that often pervade our culture, reminding ourselves and each other of the authority of Scripture and the transformative power of truth. With that, let’s dive in!

Examining the Scripture

First, let’s take a closer look at 2 Timothy 4:3-4. The Apostle Paul, writing to Timothy, prophesies about a troubling trend that’s bound to arise. He states, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.”

It’s powerful and a little chilling, isn’t it? Paul is highlighting two main issues: the rejection of sound doctrine and the craving for smooth, comfortable teachings—essentially, the search for validation over truth.

The Erosion of Truth in Modern Society

In today’s world, it’s not hard to see echoes of this prophecy. Influencer culture and the rise of social media have created an environment where “likes” and “shares” often trump substance. Any voice that can tickle the ears, no matter how baseless the message, can quickly gain a following. It’s like digital candy—sweet but ultimately empty.

Let me share a personal story with you. A few months ago, I have watched many religious gatherings on television where charismatic speakers delivered messages that resonated deeply with many in the audience. They were uplifting, motivational, and full of stories that warmed the hearts. But upon reflection, I realized the core messages strayed far away from the teachings of the Bible. Yes, the appeal of feel-good stories or falsehoods propagated by deceived preachers overshadowed real biblical facts! Very sad and concerning, indeed!

Have any of you had similar experiences? Perhaps you’ve encountered someone who has turned away from foundational truths in pursuit of more palatable ideas.

Echoes of Long-Gone Eras

As I pondered this phenomenon, I couldn’t help but think back to previous historical periods. It’s a pattern that repeats throughout history—cultures and societies veering away from foundational truths in favor of whatever feels good at the moment. The Roman Empire, for example, was infamous for its moral decay, with citizens seeking entertainment over ethical living.

And let’s not forget the Age of Enlightenment, where reason was championed but often eclipsed the spiritual truths that grounded societies. Fast forward to today—it’s as if we’re stuck in a dejavu.

The Call to Discernment

So, what can we do about it? How do we navigate this landscape where truth feels like an endangered species?

Firstly, we must cultivate a deep-rooted understanding of sound doctrine ourselves. The pursuit of truth demands effort—it requires study, prayer, and engagement with the Scriptures. When we anchor our beliefs in truth, we possess the tools to discern when fables start to creep in.

Secondly, let’s become teachers and leaders who embody truth and grace. We’re called not just to consume teachings that resonate with us but to be influencers of solid doctrine. It begins with conversations with friends and family—creating spaces where truth can flourish, even when it feels uncomfortable.

And there you have it, dear friends! As we draw our time together to a close today on this spiritual podcast, I hope you feel inspired and challenged about the mission we share. The beautiful truth of the gospel isn’t just for us—it’s a lifeline for the world around us.

When Yahshua commanded us to go and make disciples, He entrusted us with the message that has the power to bring healing, hope, and transformation. Let’s remember that preaching the true gospel isn’t just a responsibility; it’s a privilege! In a world filled with confusion and falsehoods, we possess the light that can guide others out of darkness.

So, I urge each of you: as you walk through your daily lives, be courageous and intentional. Share the love of Messiah with your friends, your family, and even strangers. Let the gospel flow through your words, your actions, and the way you live your life.

As we continue to seek Yahweh Elohim together, may our hearts burn with a passion for the truth and a desire to communicate it clearly and lovingly. Let’s make it our mission not only to hold dear the gospel ourselves but also to take it into the world, where it can do its powerful work.

As we conclude today’s podcast episode, let’s remind ourselves of the importance of sound doctrine amidst a sea of fables. The journey may be challenging, but it is also rewarding.

Remember, it’s very easy to get swept away by the superficial. But as followers of Yahshua the Messiah, let’s be diligent in our pursuit of truth, always striving to steer ourselves and others away from the seductive allure of the stories that don’t hold water.

Friends, if you’d like to continue this conversation or share your thoughts on this topic, leave a comment below or reach out to me directly. Feel free also to visit our main website by clicking here to read and learn more genuine truths from the Bible.

I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!

Don’t forget, you are not alone in this mission; we are a family united by our faith. If you found value in our conversation, let us keep building this community rooted in truth and love. Together, let’s proclaim the name of Yahshua Messiah boldly and faithfully!

Thank you all for tuning in today’s podcast episode. If you enjoyed this message, kindly share it with your family and friends. So again, always seek truth—and may it guide your heavenly path! Until next time. May the gospel of Almighty Yahweh shine brightly thru you!

Micah 4:3-4 – A World of Unparalleled Peace

In a world that often seems filled with conflict and strife, the promise of peace can sometimes feel like a distant dream. Yet, in the pages of the Bible, specifically in Micah 4:3-4, we find a beautiful vision of a future defined by unparalleled harmony and tranquility. This passage paints a picture of a time when nations will no longer lift swords against each other, and individuals will enjoy the fruits of their labor without fear.

This coming era of peace is not a result of political maneuvering or military might but is born from a universal acknowledgment of the sovereignty of Yahweh. It’s a time when the divine order will be established, and humanity will live in unity under the banner of our Elohim’s love and wisdom.

As we continue to face the trials and tribulations of our present age, let us cling to the promise of Micah 4:3-4. Let’s take heart in knowing that a future of unprecedented peace and prosperity is on the horizon. In anticipation of this, we are called to be peacemakers in our own right, contributing to the creation of a world that mirrors the divine blueprint laid out in the scriptures.

And yes, this is not a call to passive waiting, but an invitation to active participation. We can each play a part in bringing about this vision of peace by promoting understanding, showing compassion, and standing up for justice in our communities. The promise of Micah 4:3-4 is a beacon of hope, reminding us that no matter how tumultuous the currents of our times may be, a future of peace awaits.

So, let’s hold onto this hope, sharing it with those around us and living our lives in a manner that aligns with the principles of the kingdom to come. As we do so, we can look forward to the day when the prophecy of Micah 4:3-4 will be fulfilled, and our world will be enveloped in the profound peace of Yahweh.

Micah 4:2 – Nations Will Learn Almighty Yahweh’s Ways

In the tapestry of biblical prophecy, there is a thread that shines with hope and promise – the vision of a time when all nations will come to learn the ways of Almighty Yahweh. This is beautifully depicted in Micah 4:2, a verse that offers a glimpse into a future where the divine wisdom will be sought and embraced by people from every corner of the globe.

This is a vision of a world united under the banner of truth and righteousness, where the teachings of Elohim are not just known but lived out in the daily lives of individuals and societies. It’s a picture of a global community transformed by the power of divine wisdom, reflecting the love, justice, and peace that are at the heart of Yahweh’s character.

As we navigate the complexities of our current world, this prophecy provides a beacon of hope. It reminds us that no matter how fragmented and confused our societies may seem, there is a divine plan at work, drawing all people towards an understanding of Yahweh’s ways.

Let us be encouraged by this vision, and let us play our part in its realization. By seeking to understand and live out the teachings of Elohim in our own lives, we can contribute to the fulfillment of this prophecy. We can become beacons of light in our own communities, illustrating the transformative power of divine wisdom.

So, let’s hold fast to the promise of Micah 4:2, and let’s look forward to the day when the nations will stream to learn the ways of Almighty Yahweh.

In the meantime, let’s commit ourselves to walking in those ways, becoming living examples of the peace, love, and justice that Elohim desires for His creation.

Amos 9:13-14, Ezekiel 34:26-27 – A World of Agricultural Abundance

In the pages of the Bible, we find a captivating vision of a future defined by agricultural abundance and prosperity. This picture, beautifully painted in Amos 9:13-14 and Ezekiel 34:26-27, offers a hopeful contrast to the struggles and scarcities that often mark our current reality.

These passages depict a world where the land is fruitful, and the harvests are plentiful. It’s a time when the fields will be rich with grain, the vines will be heavy with fruit, and the pastures will be lush with greenery. The abundance will be such that the plowman will overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes will overtake the sower of seed.

This vision of agricultural prosperity is not just about physical sustenance, but also about the restoration of harmony between humanity and the natural world. It’s a picture of a time when the divine blessing will be evident in the productivity of the land, reflecting the goodness and generosity of Yahweh.

As we face the challenges of our present age, including issues of food insecurity and environmental degradation, let us hold onto this hope. Let’s look forward to the day when the words of Amos 9:13-14 and Ezekiel 34:26-27 will be realized, and our world will be transformed into a haven of agricultural abundance.

In the meantime, let’s strive to live our lives in a way that reflects the principles of stewardship and care for the creation that Elohim has entrusted to us. By doing so, we can contribute to the creation of a world that mirrors the divine blueprint laid out in the scriptures, a world where every living thing can flourish under the blessing of Almighty Yahweh.

Isaiah 35:6-7 – All of the Wastelands Transformed

In the midst of life’s trials and tribulations, the Bible offers us a vision of hope and rejuvenation in Isaiah 35:6-7. These verses paint a breathtaking picture of a world where the most barren and desolate wastelands are transformed into lush, vibrant landscapes, teeming with life and beauty.

This prophecy speaks of a time when the parched ground will become a pool, and springs of water will satisfy the thirsty land. It’s a vision of a world where the curse of infertility is lifted, and the earth is restored to its full glory, reflecting the original intent of Yahweh’s creation.

This transformation is not just physical, but also symbolic of the spiritual renewal that Elohim promises. It’s a picture of a time when the human heart, often compared to a parched desert in scripture, will be filled with the living water of Yahweh’s spirit, resulting in a flourishing of righteousness and joy.

As we navigate our current reality, often marked by spiritual dryness and moral decay, let us hold onto this promise. Let’s look forward to the day when the prophecy of Isaiah 35:6-7 will be fulfilled, and our world will be enveloped in the refreshing rains of Elohim’s blessing.

In anticipation of this, let’s strive to be agents of transformation in our own spheres of influence.

This is beautifully depicted in Isaiah 11:6, a verse that offers a glimpse into a world where the fierce and the gentle coexist in tranquility.

This prophecy paints a picture of a time when the wolf will dwell with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the young goat. It’s a vision of a world where the cruelty and violence that often mark the animal kingdom are replaced by a divine harmony, reflecting the original intent of Elohim’s creation.

This transformation is not just physical, but also symbolic of the peace and unity that Yahweh promises for all of creation. It’s a picture of a time when the enmity between creatures, and between humanity and nature, will be healed, resulting in a flourishing of life and beauty.

As we navigate our current reality, often marked by conflict and discord, let us hold onto this promise. Let’s look forward to the day when the prophecy of Isaiah 11:6 will be fulfilled, and our world will be enveloped in the profound peace of Elohim.

Isaiah 35:5-6 – Sicknesses and Diseases Healed

In the midst of life’s challenges, the Bible offers a beacon of hope in Isaiah 35:5-6. These verses paint a beautiful picture of a future where sickness and disease are no more, and healing flows like a river.

This prophecy speaks of a time when the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped. The lame will leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute will sing for joy. It’s a vision of a world where the shackles of illness are broken, and the fullness of health is restored.

This healing is not just physical, but also symbolic of the spiritual healing that Yahweh promises. It’s a picture of a time when the human heart, often burdened by the weight of sin and sorrow, will be made whole, resulting in a flourishing of joy and peace.

In the heart of the biblical narrative, we find a promise that shines with hope and transformation – the promise of a new heart and a new spirit. This is beautifully depicted in Ezekiel 11:19-20, verses that offer a glimpse into a future where humanity is fundamentally transformed from the inside out.

This prophecy speaks of a time when Yahweh will give us a new heart and put a new spirit within us. It’s a vision of a world where our hearts of stone, often hardened by sin and selfishness, will be replaced with hearts of flesh, sensitive to the leading of Yahweh’s spirit.

This transformation is not just individual, but also collective, promising a renewal of society as we know it. It’s a picture of a time when the human race, often divided by hatred and strife, will be united under the banner of Yahweh’s love and wisdom.

As we navigate our current reality, often marked by moral decay and spiritual apathy, let us hold onto this promise. Let’s look forward to the day when the prophecy of Ezekiel 11:19-20 will be fulfilled, and our world will be enveloped in the transformative power of Elohim.

Isaiah 9:6-7 – Yahshua Messiah (Savior) Will Rule the Whole World

In the heart of the biblical narrative, we find a promise that shines with hope and majesty – the promise of a Savior who will rule the whole world. This is beautifully depicted in Isaiah 9:6-7, verses that offer a glimpse into a future where Yahshua the Messiah, the Prince of Peace, will establish His reign over all the earth.

This prophecy speaks of a time when the government will rest upon His shoulders, and of the peace that will have no end. It’s a vision of a world where justice and righteousness will be the foundation of His throne, and where the wolf will dwell with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the young goat.

This rule is not just political, but also spiritual, promising a renewal of society as we know it. It’s a picture of a time when the human race, often divided by hatred and strife, will be united under the banner of Yahweh’s love and wisdom.

The Bible Says There Are No Hidden Things That Will Not Be Revealed As Everything Will Come Into Light

Yes, there are no secrets that will not be known! This passage serves as both a promise and a warning to us all. Why, how? Read on to find out.

Welcome back to the educational podcast, where we explore and share genuine biblical truths. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we dive into a powerful passage from the Gospel of Luke 8:17 that says, “For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.” What does it mean for our lives when we consider the weight of this promise? Join us as we peel back the layers of secrecy and illumination, examining how truth and revelation shape our understanding of ourselves, our communities, and the divine.

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

The powerful words of Luke 8:17 remind us that ultimately, all truths will be revealed. At its core, this verse serves as both a warning and a promise. It warns those who might try to conceal their actions or motives, reminding us that deception and secrecy are ultimately futile. No matter how carefully we might try to hide our thoughts or deeds, they will eventually be exposed.

However, this verse also offers hope and encouragement to those who strive to live with integrity. It assures us that our good deeds, even if done in secret, will not go unnoticed. Yes, Yahweh sees our hearts and our actions, and in His perfect timing, He will bring them to light.

Deeper Meanings

This verse carries several important spiritual lessons:

Yahweh’s omniscience: It emphasizes that Elohim knows everything, including our deepest thoughts and most hidden actions.

Accountability: It reminds us that we are accountable for our choices and actions, even those we think are secret.

Encouragement for truth-seekers: For those earnestly seeking truth, it promises that Yahweh will reveal His wisdom and understanding in due time.

Call for self-examination: It encourages us to examine our hearts, motives, and actions in the light of Elohim’s truth.

Practical Application

In our daily lives, Luke 8:17 challenges us to:

  • Live with integrity, knowing that all will eventually come to light.
  • Seek truth and understanding, trusting that Elohim will reveal what we need to know.
  • Be transparent in our relationships, avoiding secrets that could harm others.
  • Trust in Yahweh’s justice, knowing that He sees all and will ultimately bring truth to light.

Yes, Luke 8:17 serves as a powerful reminder of Yahweh’s all-seeing nature and the importance of living in the light of His truth. It challenges us to examine our hearts, confront our hidden struggles, and trust in Elohim’s perfect timing for revelation and understanding. As we embrace this truth, we can live with greater authenticity, integrity, and faith in Yahweh’s ultimate plan.

Furthermore, the profound wisdom encapsulated in Luke 12:2 resonates deeply with our human experience. It says, “For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.” This powerful verse serves as both a warning and a promise, challenging us to live with integrity and transparency.

At its core, this verse reminds us of the futility of deception and secrecy. In a world where we often try to present a curated version of ourselves, Yahshua’s words cut through the facade, reminding us that ultimate truth will always prevail. It’s a sobering thought that our actions, no matter how well-concealed, will eventually come to light.

The All-Seeing Nature of Yahweh

This verse underscores the omniscience of Elohim. It reminds us that while we may successfully hide our thoughts and actions from others, nothing escapes the gaze of our Creator. This knowledge should inspire us to live authentically, knowing that we are fully known and loved by Yahweh.

A Call to Integrity

Luke 12:2 challenges us to examine our lives and motivations. Are we living in a way that aligns with our values and beliefs? Are there areas of our lives that we’d be ashamed to have exposed? This verse encourages us to confront these questions head-on, spurring us towards greater honesty and integrity.

Hope for Truth-Seekers

While this verse might seem daunting, it also offers hope. For those earnestly seeking truth and justice, it promises that falsehoods will not prevail indefinitely. It solidly assures us that Yahweh’s justice will ultimately triumph, even if it’s not immediately apparent.

Practical Application

In light of this verse, how should we live? Here are a few suggestions:

  • Cultivate transparency in our relationships
  • Practice self-examination regularly
  • Seek forgiveness and reconciliation for past wrongs
  • Live with the awareness that our actions have eternal significance

As we wrap up today’s episode, let’s reflect on the powerful wisdom in Luke 12:2 that says, “For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.” Yes, ultimately, all truths will be revealed!

Do any of these seem familiar to you in light of the current condition of American politics and other geopolitical ramblings taking place across the world? Yes, the frauds and corruptions from the governments and people that are now being revealed to the public! Indeed, in His Word, the Bible, Yahweh, the Father in heaven, warned us against these things!

Note that in the quest for authenticity, this reality invites us to embrace transparency in our lives, to confront our hidden corners, and to cultivate a deeper connection with ourselves and others.

Remember, the light of truth not only uncovers the shadows but also offers healing and freedom. Yes, let us move towards a life of integrity, honesty, and spiritual growth. Let’s embark on this journey together, seeking wisdom in the light of transparency.

So, as we step closer into the end times, let’s carry the light of honesty and encourage others to do the same. Until next time, keep seeking, keep illuminating, and keep sharing these genuine truths with the world.

Valentine’s Day is Not About Romance or Love

Many Get It Wrong Describing Savior Yahshua: Here's the Truth!
Contrary to popular belief, Valentine’s Day is not about romance or love as people are led to believe

Contrary to popular belief, Valentine’s Day is not about romance or love as people are led to believe. Yes, you read it right! Read on for the deets.

Hey there, love hunters and history buffs! My name is Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re diving into the wild origins of Valentine’s Day – and trust me, it’s nothing like the chocolate-and-roses fantasy you’ve been told. I will take you back to ancient Rome where Valentine’s all started.

The Shocking Truth Behind February 14th

Imagine a festival where:

  • Naked men roam around
  • Animal sacrifices are the main event
  • Women line up to be whipped (yes, you read that correctly)

This wasn’t some underground cult – this was a mainstream Roman celebration called Lupercalia and later rebranded as Valentine’s Day! The goal? Fertility. The method? Absolutely bonkers.

The Gritty Details

Priests would sacrifice goats and dogs, smear blood on themselves, and then use strips of animal hide to whip young women. Why? They believed this would magically boost fertility. Talk about a different kind of Valentine’s greeting!

From Pagan Ritual to Hallmark Holiday

Around 500 AD, Pope Gelasius saw this wild festival and thought, “Let’s rebrand this.” He transformed Lupercalia into Saint Valentine’s Day, essentially putting a Christian mask on a pagan party.

Transition from Pagan to Christian Celebration

The connection between Lupercalia and modern Valentine’s Day traditions is tenuous at best, with limited direct influence on our current celebrations.

In the late 5th century, Pope Gelasius I established February 14th as a day to honor Saint Valentine, effectively replacing the pagan Lupercalia festival. However, this replacement wasn’t immediate or direct, as Valentine’s Day didn’t acquire its romantic connotations until centuries later.

The transition from fertility rituals to romantic love represents a softening and romanticizing of the holiday’s themes over time.

The Roman Catholic Church addressed the pagan origins of Valentine’s Day through a process of Christianization in the 5th century AD. Pope Gelasius I played a crucial role in this transformation:

Replacement of Lupercalia: In 496 AD, Pope Gelasius I officially replaced the pagan festival of Lupercalia with Saint Valentine’s Day.

Date Change: The observance was moved from February 15th to February 14th.

Rebranding: The Church attempted to infuse Christian elements into the existing pagan celebration by renaming it after Saint Valentine.

Shift in Focus: The holiday’s emphasis was redirected from the pagan god Lupercus to Christian saints.

Modification of Practices: While some pagan customs were retained, the more extreme sensual observances were eliminated.

Syncretism: The Church adopted a strategy of blending popular pagan beliefs with Christian ones to facilitate conversion and retain members.

Saint Veneration: People were encouraged to draw lots with saints’ names instead of potential romantic partners.

However, it’s important to note that this Christianization was not entirely successful in eradicating the holiday’s pagan roots. Over time, Valentine’s Day evolved to incorporate both Christian and secular elements, eventually returning to its focus on romantic love in subsequent centuries.

In modern times, some contemporary groups and individuals have reimagined or adapted elements of the ancient festival:

Pagan and Neopagan Observances: Some pagan communities may celebrate a version of Lupercalia, adapting its themes of fertility and renewal to fit contemporary beliefs.

Satanic Interpretation: Some people have reimagined Lupercalia as a celebration of bodily autonomy and sexual liberation.

Personal Rituals: Some individuals create modern rituals inspired by Lupercalia, such as symbolic purification practices like smudging or candle lighting and creating Lupercalia cards.

Yes, Valentine’s Day wasn’t about romance or love – it was about raw, unbridled fertility, known in the past as “Lupercalia” in ancient Rome!

So the next time someone gets sentimental about Valentine’s Day, remind them it started as a sexually charged fertility festival with zero romance and love and plenty of violence.

And yes, true love isn’t about a commercialized holiday – it’s about real connection. And definitely not about getting whipped with animal hides. Don’t forget that Valentine’s Day is a man-made holiday, not a genuine holy day mentioned in the Bible! Therefore, let’s drop the roses, look back at history, but don’t embrace it!

Remember what Almighty Yahweh, the Father in heaven, warns people about when He says in the Bible in Deuteronomy 12:30-32: “Be careful not to follow their ways after they have been destroyed, and do not ask about their gods. Do not worship Yahweh your Elohim in their way, for they do detestable things to their gods. Do everything I command you, and do not add to it or take away from it.”

I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!

What the Bible Says About Migrating or Immigration

The Feast of Unleavened Bread—A Journey Thru Time and Faith
Here is what the Bible says to all peoples migrating or immigrating to another land or foreign country

Today, I’ll tackle a sensitive topic I titled, What the Bible Says About Migrating or Immigration. In this podcast I will boldly share with you what the holy Scripture says to the people migrating or immigrating to another land, for example, the USA, for purposes of truth and wisdom!

Welcome back to our podcast, where we explore pressing issues through the lens of the holy Bible. I’m Elder Dan, your host. I’ll be exploring this theme using four key biblical passages: Exodus 12:49, Romans 13:1-5, Leviticus 24:22, and Philippians 3:20. So grab your Bible, and let’s start.

Episode is also available to listen free in other Pod Networks below.

Segment One: “The Law is for All” (Exodus 12:49) Our first stop is the book of Exodus. Here, Yahweh gives the Israelites laws as they prepare to leave Egypt. One law stands out in chapter 12, verse 49: “The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner residing among you.” This principle underscores that Elohim’s laws are universal; they apply equally to everyone, regardless of their nationality or birthplace.

Exodus 12:49

“The same law applies both to the native-born and to the foreigner residing among you.”

In the context of migration, this verse suggests that immigrants should be treated with the same respect and dignity as native-born citizens. Yes, they are expected to follow the laws of the land, but they also have the right to be treated fairly under those laws. It’s a two-way street.

Segment Two: “Respect for Authority” (Romans 13:1-5) Next, we turn to the New Testament, specifically Romans 13:1-5. Here, Paul urges the people to submit to governing authorities because they’ve been instituted by Yahweh. He writes, “Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which Elohim has established.”

Romans 13:1-5

“Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which Elohim has established. The authorities that exist have been established by Elohim.”

“Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what Elohim has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.”

“For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended.”

“For the one in authority is Elohim’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are Elohim’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer.”

“Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.”

This passage has implications, for example, for migrants arriving in the United States. Yes, it implies that they should respect and obey the laws of that country. At the same time, it suggests that the U.S. government has a divine mandate to govern justly and fairly. This includes creating and enforcing immigration laws that balance compassion with order.

Segment Three: “Equality Before the Law” (Leviticus 24:22) Here, Yahweh spoke again, and He made sure that the people knew that He was the one talking! In this passage, He emphasized and instructed the Israelites, or the people, about various laws and principles. This passage states, “You are to have the same law for the foreigner and the native-born. I am Yahweh your Elohim.”

Leviticus 24:22

“You are to have the same law for the foreigner and the native-born. I am Yahweh your Elohim.”

Yes, this verse emphasizes the principle of equality before the law. In Yahweh’s eyes, both the foreigner and the native-born are subject to the same rules. No one is above the law, and no one is beneath it. This principle has direct implications for the issue of migration.

Segment Four: “Citizenship in Heaven” (Philippians 3:20) Finally, we look at Philippians 3:20. Here, Paul reminds the people that their primary citizenship is in heaven. He writes, “But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Master Yahshua Messiah.”

Philippians 3:20

“But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Master Yahshua Messiah.”

This verse offers a fresh perspective on the migration debate. While earthly citizenship is important, it’s not our ultimate identity. Our true home is in heaven, and our allegiance is to Messiah. This eternal perspective can help both migrants and native-born citizens navigate the challenges of immigration with grace and humility.

Overall, as I wrap up today’s podcast, remember these 5 key takeaways:

  • Elohim’s laws apply equally to everyone, regardless of their background.
  • We’re called to respect and obey governing authorities.
  • Disobeying the law is not just a legal issue; it’s a moral one.
  • The path of righteousness is the path of legal migration.
  • Our ultimate citizenship is in heaven.

As we engage with the issue of migration, let’s do so with these biblical principles in mind. I hope and pray this eye-opening post will be beneficial to you and a blessing to you as well. Let’s remind ourselves to view the world through a biblical lens! We’ll never go wrong doing that!
