Who is Yahweh’s Little Flock to Which Yahshua Refers?

Who is Yahweh’s Little Flock to Which Yahshua Refers?
The Little Flock of Yahweh are those Faithful to Yahshua and Obedient to His Words per the Bible

Who is Yahweh’s Little Flock to which Yahshua Refers?

Hello and welcome back to Educational Podcast, the podcast where we dive deep into the genuine truths of the Bible for free, always. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re unpacking a powerful verse from Yahshua Himself in Luke 12:32: It says “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.” Yes, there’s so much to unpack here! So, settle in, give it your all ears, and let’s explore what it means to be part of Yahweh’s true little flock.

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 with that phrase—little flock. It is so tender, isn’t it? When Yahshua the Messiah says this, He’s not addressing a massive crowd of religious elites or the popular, mainstream followers of His day. He’s talking to a small, dedicated group of disciples—ordinary people, fishermen. Yes, they’re folks who were often overlooked by society. These were not the influencers of their time, racking up followers or filling megachurches. No, this little flock was humble, unassuming, and fiercely devoted to the truth Yahshua was teaching.

And here’s the thing—Yahshua doesn’t say “massive herd” or “global congregation.” He says little flock. That’s intentional! It is a clear and powerful reminder that Yahweh’s kingdom is not about numbers, popularity, or worldly clout. But rather, it is about a remnant, a small but faithful group who hear His voice and follow Him, no matter the cost! In a world obsessed with going viral, Yahshua is saying, “My kingdom is for the few who choose the narrow path.”

Now, let’s get real for a second. In today’s world, it’s very easy to think that being part of the heavenly flock means joining the biggest, loudest, or most popular religious movement. You know what I’m talking about—those mainstream groups with polished branding, packed pews, and pastors who are basically looking and sounding like celebrities, if you will. But Yahshua didn’t come for the mainstream. He didn’t chase trends or build a megachurch. He called out to the little flock—those who were willing to stand apart,  to question the status quo, to seek truth over comfort.

I mean, think about it. The religious leaders of Yahshua’s time? They were the mainstream. The Pharisees and Sadducees had the crowds, the rituals, the power. But Yahshua did not cozy up to them. He challenged their traditions, their hypocrisy, their obsession with outward appearances. His little flock was not blindly following the popular religion of the day. They were listening to Him—the Good Shepherd—and that made them different. Very peculiar, even.

So, what does this mean for us today? Well, it is a wake-up call. Being part of Yahweh’s little flock is not about signing up for the most popular church or tagging along with what everyone else is doing. Yes, it is about discernment. It is about you asking yourself, “Am I truly following Yahshua, or am I just going with the flow of what’s comfortable and culturally accepted?” Because let’s be honest—mainstream Christianity and popular religions, with their mega-conferences and social media aesthetics, can sometimes feel more like a brand than a calling.

Yahshua’s words in Luke 12:32 are a promise, though. He says, “Do not be afraid, little flock.” Why? Because the Father in heaven, Yahweh, is pleased to give you the kingdom. That’s huge! You do not need to be big, powerful, or popular to inherit Elohim’s promises. You just need to be obedient and faithful. You just need to be part of that small, devoted group that always hears His voice and follows, even when the world thinks you’re insignificant. Yes, even when you are labeled weird by mainstream Christianity and many other big spiritual groups and popular religions out there..

I love how personal this is. Yahshua the Messiah calls us His flock—like sheep who know their Shepherd’s voice. And in John 10, He says His sheep hear Him and follow Him. That’s the mark of the little flock—not blind allegiance to a system, a denomination, or a tradition, but a living, breathing relationship with the Shepherd Himself. Yes, it is intimate. It is real. And it’s not about being part of the biggest herd; it is about being known by Messiah Yahshua.

So, if you are listening right now, and you are wondering, “Am I part of this little flock?” Here’s my challenge to you: Look at your walk with Yahweh, the Elohim in heaven. Are you chasing His truth, even when it’s unpopular? Are you truly listening to His voice, or are you caught up in the noise of what everyone else is doing? Yes, the little flock is not about fitting in—it is about standing out for all the right reasons. It is about courage, humility, and a relentless pursuit of Savior Yahshua and His genuine teachings over the world’s applause.

Friends, being part of Almighty Yahweh’s little flock is a privilege. It is a call to trust the Shepherd, to embrace the smallness, and to know that the kingdom is yours—not because you are big or powerful, but because the Father delights in you. So, do not be afraid. Stay faithful. Stay true. And keep following the Almighty One, Yahweh, who calls you by name.

And as always, keep seeking, keep questioning, and keep following Yahshua, the Good Shepherd. Until next time. Do not forget to always stay faithful and obedient to Yahshua, the Savior of humanity.

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!

Why Aren’t Women Permitted to Preach in Churches?

Why Aren't Women Permitted to Preach in Churches?
Women are not allowed to give sermons in the genuine church of Yahweh, the Father in heaven

Why aren’t women permitted to preach in churches? This topic is widely overlooked, but I’ll let the Bible clear up any misnomer once and for all. Welcome to another episode of the Educational Podcast, where we dive deep into Almighty Yahweh’s Word, to uncover His unchanging truth for His people. I’m Elder Dan, your host.

Today, we’re tackling a topic that’s stirred up plenty of noise in modern churches, but one that Scripture addresses with crystal-clear authority: I’m talking about the role of women in church gatherings, specifically their silence, as laid out in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35.

Buckle up, because this is not about opinions or debates—this is about what the Father in heaven, Yahweh, says through His chosen apostle Paul. Let’s get started.

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 Clear Command of the Holy Scripture

Folks, let’s cut straight to the chase. In 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, the Holy Spirit, speaking through Apostle Paul, says this: “The women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says. If there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.”

Now, I know what some of you are thinking—“That sounds harsh!,” or “That was just for back then, right?” But hold on. This is not Paul’s opinion. This is not a cultural suggestion. This is Yahweh’s Word, inspired and authoritative, given to guide His true church for all time. The Bible doesn’t stutter here. Yes, women are not permitted to speak in church gatherings! No preaching, no teaching, no leading! The biblical text is very plain, super clear, and quite simple: silence and submission for women are the call for all generations! 

Did you catch what Yahweh communicated to His church (body of Messiah Yahshua) for all time regarding the role of women in church through Paul? We hope you did because we can’t emphasize it enough!

No Room for Debate

Here’s where things get sticky for some, folks. In many churches today, we see women taking on roles as pastors, elders, or teachers over congregations. But let me be clear: this is not up for debate. Yahweh’s Word is not a suggestion box. When Paul writes, “as the Law also says,” he’s grounding this command in Elohim’s eternal design, not some temporary cultural norm. The Law—Yahweh’s unchanging standard—points to order in worship, and that order includes women submitting in silence during church gatherings.

Now, don’t get me wrong. Women are vital to the body of Messiah. They’re called to believe in Yahshua, follow His teachings, serve in countless ways, and shine as lights in the world. Think of the women in the New Testament—Mary, Lydia, Priscilla. They were faithful, bold disciples. But nowhere do we see them preaching or holding authority over men in the church! That’s not their role, and Yahweh’s design is perfect.

Why This Matters

You might be wondering, “Why is this such a big deal?” It is big because obedience to Yahweh’s Word, the Bible, is non-negotiable! When we start picking and choosing which parts of Scripture to follow, we’re not just tweaking traditions—we’re challenging Yahweh’s authority. Paul says it’s “shameful” for a woman to speak in church! Did you catch it? That’s a strong language, friends. But it’s not about diminishing women; it’s about honoring the roles Elohim has assigned! Men and women are equal in value, but different in function! That’s the beauty of Yahweh’s order. Got it?

In the early church, this was understood. Women didn’t stand up to preach or lead the congregation. They learned, they served, they supported, but they didn’t take on roles of authority. And you know what? The church thrived under Yahweh’s design. So why are many churches trying to rewrite the playbook now?

Addressing the Pushback

Now, I can already sense the confusion. You might ask: “But what about gifted women? What about equality? What about Galatians 3:28?” Let’s tackle that last one really quick. The full context and real meaning of Galatians 3:28 is about our equal standing before Yahweh in salvation, not about erasing distinct roles in the church! Salvation is the same for all, but roles are not!

As for gifted women, of course, Yahweh absolutely uses them. They can teach other women in household chores, disciple children, serve in ministries, and share the Gospel. But the pulpit or the elder’s chair? Yes, that’s reserved for men, as Yahweh’s Word commands! And if you’re tempted to argue, Paul shuts that down in Corinthians 14 verse 37 that says: “If anyone thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that the things I am writing to you are a command of Yahweh Almighty.” Yes, that’s an emphatic period, people. Case closed!

Living it Out

So, what do we do with this? Churches, it’s time to stop debating and start obeying. If your congregation has women preaching or leading over men, you’re out of step with the Bible! To all the church leaders out there, you’ve got a responsibility to uphold Yahweh’s order!

Therefore, women, embrace the beautiful role Yahweh has given you. Your silence in the church is not a limitation—it is an act of worship, a submission to Elohim’s perfect design. If you’ve got questions, like Paul says, ask at home. Study the Holy Scripture with your husband or better with an ordained spiritual leader. But don’t let the world’s ideas about equality or fairness twist what Yahweh has made clear.

Remember, His ways are higher than yours and ours! I’m sure many of you are not aware, perhaps even 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 you, our dear listeners and readers, and we want all of you to learn the genuine truths of the Holy Scripture.

That’s it for today, folks. Don’t forget—Yahweh, our Elohim’s Word is clear: women are to keep silent in the churches, submitting as the Bible says! This is not about culture or opinion—it is about Almighty Yahweh’s unchanging truth! Let’s honor Him by obeying, no questions asked.

A Closer Look at 2 Timothy 3:3 and Current Times

A Closer Look at 2 Timothy 3:3 and Current Times
The Last Days—A Reflection on 2 Timothy 3:3 and the Present Time at the World We Live In Bible Prophecy

A Closer Look at 2 Timothy 3:3 and Current Times

Hello and welcome to Educational Podcast, where we dive deep into the spiritual insights of genuine Bible truths and current events that shape our world. I’m Elder Dan, your host.

Today, we’re taking a closer look at 2 Timothy 3:3 and Current Times at the world we live in Bible prophecy. Let’s explore what the Holy Scripture says about the last days and how it connects to the current chaos we’re seeing unfold in California and other major cities in the United States of America.

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.

In 2 Timothy 3:3, the Apostle Paul warns us about the character of people in the last days—describing them as “unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good.” These words, written nearly 2,000 years ago, seem to resonate with the turmoil we’re witnessing today. Think about the recent chaos, looting, riots, and destruction in major U.S. cities like Los Angeles.

And yes, there’s also chaos currently brewing in Austin, Atlanta, and Chicago, to name a few at the time I’m writing this. These events aren’t just random acts—they mirror the prophecy Paul laid out, suggesting we’re seeing it come to life more and more.

Sadly, here’s the reality, friends. This is just the beginning of sorrows, a phrase from Matthew 24:8. It’s a sobering thought—turmoil today might only be a preview of what’s ahead. But it’s not all doom and gloom. The piece reminds us that the Almighty Yahweh in heaven is watching. He sees every act of lawlessness and every heart seeking hope. This calls us to be sober and vigilant, as 1 Peter 5:8 urges, to pray fervently, and to keep doing good.

So, what does this mean for us? It’s a call to action. By staying faithful, praying, and showing love even in tough times, we align ourselves with Yahweh’s will. Those who endure and remain steadfast will be counted worthy of Yahweh’s salvation, as promised in Luke 21:36. This isn’t just about personal safety—it’s about being a light in a darkening world, reflecting Almighty Yahweh’s love and truth.

As we navigate these challenging days, let’s hold fast to hope. The chaos in our cities might be a sign of the times, but it’s also an opportunity to shine for Yahweh’s glory. Let’s commit to being vigilant, prayerful, and unwavering, trusting in the promise of His eternal kingdom.

Thank you for joining me today. If you’d like to read and learn more about this topic or share your thoughts, go ahead and leave your comment below or head over to our sister website by clicking here. Until next time, stay faithful, always pray, and keep up the good fight!

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!

What is Shavuot, Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost Holy Day About?

What is Shavuot, the Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost Holy Day About?
Celebrating the Holy Day of Shavuot, aka Feast of Weeks or Pentecost, through the lens of the Bible

What is Shavuot, Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost Holy Day About?

Hello and welcome to Educational Podcast, your podcast home for always free and genuine Bible truths! I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today’s episode will be a quick one where I’ll talk about Yahweh’s command to observe His sacred feast of Shavuot. What is this holy day all about, you might ask? Well, Shavuot, known as the Feast of Weeks or Pentecost, is a sacred celebration rooted in the Bible, a divine appointment that resonates with profound spiritual significance for all humanity. Far from being an exclusively Jewish observance, Shavuot is one of Yahweh’s eternal holy days, instituted in Scripture as a universal call to honor His covenant, reflect on His provision, and rejoice in His presence. Commanded in the Torah and fulfilled in the New Testament, this sacred feast invites every believer to commemorate Yahweh’s timeless gifts—His law, His harvest, and His Spirit—every year, for all time.

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 Biblical Foundation of Shavuot

In the Bible, Yahweh instructs His people to observe this feast as a perpetual statute: It says, “You shall count seven weeks… Then you shall keep the Feast of Weeks to Yahweh your Elohim, with the tribute of a freewill offering from your hand, which you shall give as Yahweh, your Elohim, blesses you.” (Deuteronomy 16:9-10). This divine command, given to Israel at Mount Sinai, is not limited to a single people or era. Yahweh’s feasts, including Shavuot, reflect His universal plan for humanity, a rhythm of worship meant to unite all who seek to honor Him. As a “holy convocation” as mentioned in Leviticus 23:21, Shavuot calls for rest, reflection, and communal celebration, emphasizing its enduring relevance.

A Feast of Harvest and Revelation

Shavuot carries a dual significance, intertwining Yahweh’s provision in the physical and spiritual realms. In ancient Israel, it was a harvest festival, a time to offer the firstfruits of the wheat harvest to Yahweh in gratitude for His sustenance (Exodus 34:22). Farmers brought their choicest crops to the Temple, acknowledging that every blessing flows from the Creator’s hand. This agricultural aspect reminds us of our dependence on Yahweh’s provision, a truth that transcends culture and time.

Yet Shavuot is far more than a harvest festival. Jewish tradition associates it with the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, when Yahweh’s voice thundered from the mountain, delivering the Ten Commandments and establishing His covenant with His people (Exodus 19-20). This moment marked a divine encounter, where humanity received Yahweh’s eternal instructions for righteous living. Shavuot, therefore, is a celebration of revelation, a time to recommit to Yahweh’s Word as the foundation of life.

Pentecost: A Universal Outpouring

In the New Testament, Shavuot takes on an even deeper dimension as the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples in Jerusalem (Acts 2:1-4). This dramatic outpouring fulfilled Yahweh’s promise to write His law on the hearts of His people (Jeremiah 31:33) and extend His covenant to all nations. The Spirit empowered believers to proclaim the Gospel, breaking down barriers of language and culture as thousands came to faith (Acts 2:41). Pentecost reveals Shavuot’s universal scope: it is not merely a Jewish feast but a divine invitation for all people to experience Almighty Yahweh’s presence and power.

The connection between the giving of the Torah and the giving of the Spirit underscores Shavuot’s timeless message. Yahweh’s law, once inscribed on stone, is now written on human hearts through the Holy Spirit, uniting Jews and Gentiles in a shared covenant. As the Apostle Paul writes, “There is neither Jew nor Greek… for you are all one in Messiah Yahshua” (Galatians 3:28). Shavuot reminds us that Yahweh’s feasts are for all who call upon His name.

Why Shavuot Matters Today

Yahweh’s command to observe Shavuot “for all time” (Leviticus 23:21) is a call to every generation. In a world often disconnected from its spiritual roots, Shavuot offers a sacred pause to realign with Yahweh’s purposes. It invites us to: Give Thanks for Almighty Yahweh’s Provision, Recommit to Yahweh’s Word, Celebrate the Holy Spirit’s Power, and Unite as Yahweh’s People.

How to Observe Shavuot

Celebrating Shavuot can be a joyful and meaningful experience, whether individually or in community. Here are some ways to honor this holy day: Study and Reflect on Yahweh’s Word, Offer Gratitude to Yahweh, Gather in Community to join with others for worship, prayer, and fellowship, Enjoy Kosher or Non-Pork Foods, Pray for Renewal and Outpouring of the Holy Spirit, asking Almighty Yahweh to empower you for His purposes.

A Call to All Humanity

Overall, Shavuot is not a relic of the past or a holiday exclusive to one group. It is Almighty Yahweh’s sacred feast, a universal call to celebrate His provision, His Word, and His Spirit. As we observe Shavuot each year, we join a timeless rhythm of worship that spans generations and nations, fulfilling Yahweh’s command to keep His feasts forever. Let us embrace this holy day with joy, gratitude, and anticipation, knowing that we are part of Yahweh, our Father in heaven’s eternal covenant with all humanity.

Click here to read and learn more about this amazing Bible topic.

This Feast of Weeks or Pentecost, may we stand in awe of Father Yahweh’s faithfulness, recommit to His truth, and carry His light to the world. From all of us here at the Educational Podcast, we greet you with love and shalom. This is Elder Dan, signing off now. Chag Sameach—Happy Shavuot! Kindly share with others for blessings.

The Fate of Nations and People That Fight and Divide Israel

Who is Yahweh’s Little Flock to Which Yahshua Refers?
What will happen to the nations and peoples that fight against Jerusalem and divide the Holy Land?

In this podcast episode, I’ll explore Yahweh’s judgment on nations: the cost of fighting against Jerusalem and dividing Israel. This crucial message is for all to know and learn from, so I encourage everyone to listen with full attention to what I am about to share!

Hello and welcome to Educational Podcast, where we unpack the timeless truths of the Bible with the correct contexts. I’m your host, Elder Dan. Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s both sobering and profound: Yahweh’s judgment on nations that divide the land of Israel and fight against Jerusalem. We’ll be anchoring our discussion in two powerful biblical passages from the prophets Joel and Zechariah. Again, lend me your full ears and let’s explore what the Holy Scripture says about this super critical issue.

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 with Joel 3:2. Picture this: the prophet Joel, inspired by the Almighty Yahweh in heaven, delivers a message that echoes through the ages. Through Joel, Yahweh says this: “I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered them among the nations and divided up my land.” These words are heavy! Did you catch them?

Joel’s talking about a divine courtroom scene. Yahweh Himself is the judge, and the charge is serious: the nations are guilty of scattering Israel and carving up their land like it’s a Thanksgiving turkey. The Valley of Jehoshaphat—likely a symbolic place of judgment—becomes the stage where Yahweh holds the world accountable — Click the bold and underlined words to learn more! This isn’t just about geography; it’s about Yahweh’s covenant with Israel. The land isn’t just dirt and rocks—it’s a sacred inheritance, promised to Abraham’s descendants way back in Bible’s Genesis.

Now, let’s unpack this. Dividing Israel’s land isn’t a casual political move in Yahweh’s eyes. It’s a direct challenge to His plan. The nations that do this aren’t just making border disputes; they’re stepping into a spiritual minefield. Joel’s prophecy suggests that Yahweh’s response isn’t passive—He’s actively gathering these nations for judgment. It’s like the ultimate reality check: you can’t mess with Yahweh’s promises and walk away unscathed.

So, what does this judgment look like? Let’s flip over to Zechariah 14:12-13 for a vivid, almost cinematic picture. The prophet Zechariah writes, “This is the plague with which Yahweh will strike all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths. On that day people will be stricken by Yahweh with great panic. They will seize each other by the hand and attack one another.”

Okay, let’s pause. This is intense. Zechariah’s describing a divine judgment that’s both physical and chaotic. For those who are listening, I want you to think and understand what I am saying here! Can you visualize a horrific plague that causes flesh, eyes, and tongues to decay while people are still alive? That’s not just punishment—it’s a horrifying display of Yahweh’s power over those who oppose His holy city, Jerusalem. And then there’s the psychological chaos: panic so overwhelming that allies turn on each other, like a scene out of a dystopian movie.

What’s the context here? Zechariah’s talking about nations that actively fight against Jerusalem, Yahweh’s chosen city. This isn’t just about disagreeing with Israel’s policies—it’s about waging war against the place Almighty Yahweh calls His own. The ultimate consequences are catastrophic, showing that opposing Jerusalem is opposing Yahweh Himself! Yes, the Father in heaven loves Israel.

Now, let’s bring this into more focus. These passages from the Holy Scripture aren’t just ancient prophecies—they’re a stern warning for nations and humanity today! The Bible consistently portrays Israel and Jerusalem as central to Yahweh, the Almighty Father, in heaven’s redemptive plan. When nations divide Israel’s land or attack Jerusalem, they’re not just picking a political fight; they’re stepping into a spiritual battle with eternal stakes. Both the prophets Joel and Zechariah remind us that Yahweh is fiercely protective of His people and their land.

But here’s the flip side: these Bible verses also point to Yahweh’s justice and sovereignty. He’s not a distant deity; He’s actively involved, holding nations accountable. For us as believers, it’s a call to pray for wisdom for world leaders, to seek peace for Jerusalem, and to trust that Yahweh’s purposes will stand, no matter what the news headlines say.

The United Nations (U.N.) has a long list of clearly unfavorable resolutions against Israel, which have been an ongoing point of contention between the two parties. Over the past several decades, the UN has adopted numerous resolutions that are seen as critical of Israeli policies and practices. These resolutions range from highly condemning specific actions taken by Israel against its enemies who want the Jewish state off the map and its fight against antisemitism.

The above mentioned action by the UN has had a negative influence on peace efforts in the Middle East, as evidenced by the lack of progress in achieving a resolution to the conflict in the region. This has led to an overall deterioration of the relationship between the United Nations and Israel, which could potentially lead to further issues in the future. Yes, warring against the apple of Yahweh’s eyes (Zechariah 2:8) isn’t good for the UN leadership and many of its clueless member nations which are against Israel, the Holy Land!

That’s all for today’s episode, folks. I’m sure many of you are not aware of these things I have discussed today, but we must let the world know about them. We truly care about our listeners and readers, and we want them to learn these genuine truths. What do you think about Yahweh’s promises for Israel and the warnings in Joel and Zechariah?

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!

Yahshua the Messiah Warns Us All About Hypocrisy!

Why Aren't Women Permitted to Preach in Churches?
Yahshua Warns Us All Against Being Hypocrites When Our Bible Words Do Not Match Our Actions

Yahshua the Messiah Warns Us All About Hypocrisy!

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to Educational Podcast—the home of the free spiritual podcast inspired by the genuine truths of the Bible! And yes, we dig deep into life’s big questions with a little grit, a lot of heart, and much timeless wisdom. I’m Elder Dan, your host.

Today, we’re tackling a topic that hits hard, especially if you’ve ever felt the sting of someone saying one thing and doing the exact opposite. We’re talking about hypocrisy—specifically, what the Bible has to say about it. Buckle up, because this is going to be a wild ride through Scripture, with a spotlight on Messiah Yahshua’s no-nonsense warning about where this road leads if we’re not careful. Let’s dive in!

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

Picture this: Yashua, the Savior of humanity, is standing in front of a crowd, his voice cutting through the noise like a blade. He’s not here to play nice with the religious elite who’ve been strutting around like they’ve got it all figured out. In Matthew 15:7-9, he calls them out: “You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you: ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.” Ooops! That’s not just a slap on the wrist—that’s a full-on unmasking. Yahshua is saying, “You’re putting on a good show, but I see the real you.”

And that’s the thing about hypocrisy—it’s all about the performance. It’s the guy who prays the loudest in church but cheats his neighbor the next day. It’s the woman who quotes Scripture on Sunday but gossips her way through Monday. Remember, the Bible doesn’t mess around when it comes to this stuff, and neither does Messiah Yahshua.

Let’s flip over to Mark 7:6, where Yahshua echoes the same vibe, where He says: “Isaiah was right about you hypocrites; as it is written: ‘These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.’” Yes, the same admonition, different verse. Yahshua isn’t just repeating himself for fun—he’s driving home a point: Yahweh’s not impressed by your highlight reel if your backstage life is a mess.

Now, let’s zoom out a bit and see how this plays out in the early church. The Apostle Paul, in 2 Timothy 3:5, warns about people who have “a form of holiness but deny its power.” Think about that—a form of holiness. It’s like a hollowed-out shell. Looks shiny on the outside, but there’s nothing real inside. He’s saying, “Watch out for these folks—they’ll talk the talk, but their walk? Yes, nonexistent!” And then he adds, “Have nothing to do with such people.” That’s a microphone drop moment right there!

Meanwhile, the Apostle John picks up the thread in 1 John 2:4: It’s written, and I quote: “Whoever says, ‘I know him,’ but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.” No sugarcoating here. If you’re claiming to follow Yahshua but your life doesn’t match the sincerity, then John’s calling you out as a fraud! And he doubles down in 1 John 4:20, where it says: “Whoever claims to love Yahweh yet hates a brother or sister is a liar.” You can’t say you love Yahweh Elohim while secretly despising the people he made. Indeed, that’s hypocrisy 101 right there!

Okay, let’s get practical for a second. Yahshua the Messiah isn’t just throwing shade at the Pharisees—he’s talking to all of us. In Luke 6:46, he asks a gut-punch question: “Why do you call me, ‘Master, Master,’ and do not do what I say?” It’s like he’s saying, “If I’m really your Master, where’s the proof?” And Paul backs this up in Titus 1:16, where it says: “They claim to know Yahweh, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.” Harsh? Maybe. True? Absolutely!

The Apostle James jumps in also with a hammer in James 2:20, where it says: “You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?” Faith isn’t just a feeling—it’s a doing! Hypocrisy is when you’ve got the bumper sticker faith but none of the engine to back it up.

But here’s where it gets real, folks. Yahshua doesn’t just point out the problem—he lays out the stakes. In Matthew 7:21-23, he drops a warning that should make us all cringe and think: It says, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Master, Master,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Master, Master, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’” Did you catch that?

Let these words of warning from Yahshua, the Savior of humanity Himself, sink into the hearts and minds of those hearing and reading this podcast! These aren’t random strangers—they’re people who thought they were in. They’ve got the resume: prophecies, miracles, the whole deal. But Yahshua says, “I never knew you.” Why? Because their hearts didn’t match their hype. They were playing the part without living the truth. And the outcome? “Away from me!” That’s not a slap on the wrist—that’s eternal separation! Hypocrisy isn’t just a bad habit; it’s a soul-level disaster! Yes, Yahshua the Messiah warns us all about hypocrisy!

So, what do we do with this? First, let’s take a hard look in the mirror. Are we honoring Yahweh, the Father in heaven, with our lips while our hearts are somewhere else? Are we claiming to love him while dodging his commands? The Bible’s clear: Yahweh’s not after a performance—he wants the real deal. And yeah, it’s tough. None of us get it perfect. But the difference between a hypocrite and a struggler is honesty! A struggler owns their mess and leans into grace. A hypocrite hides behind a mask and hopes no one notices! Again, did you catch that?

You may notice that here in our ministry, we don’t bombard our dear listeners and readers with perplexing long words, and flowery messages or sermons! Yes, we want you to learn complex things from the Holy Scripture in short and simple ways that you can all understand, and yes, always for free because the Bible clearly states: “Freely you have received, freely give! (Matthew 10:8). We hope other ministries/churches out there also follow that biblical mandate!

That’s all for today, friends. Hypocrisy’s a heavy topic, but it’s one worth wrestling with! Yahshua the Messiah didn’t pull punches because he loves us too much to let us coast into disaster. So, let’s ditch the masks, live the truth, and chase after the real thing! Until next time, stay real out there. Peace!

Yahweh: YHWH is the Elohim of the Bible and Heaven

A Closer Look at 2 Timothy 3:3 and Current Times
Yahweh (YHWH) is the Elohim of the Bible and Heaven that many, including the religious, are not aware of

In this podcast, we’ll examine Yahweh: YHWH is the Elohim of the Bible and heaven. This is a very crucial biblical topic that remains hidden to people, including many religious leaders! Here, we’ll explore and share the answers to who Yahweh is from the Holy Scripture.

Welcome to today’s episode of the educational podcast, where we dive deep into the big questions of faith, life, and the divine. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Today, we’re tackling a question that’s echoed through the ages: Who is Yahweh? We’re going to explore this through the lens of the Bible, pulling from key verses in the Old and New Testaments.

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 kick things off with Genesis 1:1, where it says, “In the beginning, Yahweh created the heavens and the earth.” Yes, right out of the gate, the Bible introduces Yahweh as the Creator, the one who spoke the universe into existence. There’s no preamble, no debate—just a bold declaration! This tells us Yahweh is powerful, purposeful, and pre-existent. Before time, before matter, before anything, there was Yahweh. It’s like the ultimate mic-drop moment. He’s not an idol or a man-made god; He’s the Elohim, the source of all that is!

Think about it: the stars, the oceans, the mountains—every atom owes its existence to Him. This sets the stage for everything else we’re going to unpack. Yahweh isn’t just a character in the story; He’s the author, the artist, the architect.

Now, let’s fast-forward to Exodus 3:13-15, where Moses is standing before the burning bush, having a face-to-face moment with the divine. Moses, understandably a bit nervous, asks Elohim, “Who should I say sent me to the Israelites?” And Yahweh responds, “I AM WHO I AM. Tell them, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ Yes, He says His name is Yahweh, and this is His name forever!

This is huge! “I AM”  is not just a catchy phrase—it’s a revelation of Yahweh’s nature. He’s eternal, self-existent, unchanging! He doesn’t depend on anything or anyone else to exist. He just is. It’s like Yahweh’s saying, “I’m the constant in a world of variables.” And that name, Yahweh? It’s personal. It’s relational. He’s not some distant cosmic force; He’s an  Elohim who engages with His people, who calls Moses by name and sends him on a mission to free Israel. I love how this moment shows Yahweh’s accessibility but also His mystery. He’s knowable, yet beyond comprehension. It’s like trying to hold the ocean in a teacup!

Next, let’s jump to Isaiah 43:10-11, where Yahweh says through the prophet, “You are my witnesses… Before me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after me. I, I am Yahweh, and besides me there is no savior.” This is Yahweh drawing a line in the sand. In a world where people worshipped idols—think golden calves or statues of Baal—Yahweh’s like, “Nope. I’m the only one who’s real. No one comes before me, no one comes after me, and no one else can save. This exclusivity is striking! Yahweh isn’t competing in a divine talent show; He’s in a category of His own. He’s not just the best option—He’s the only option for salvation, for truth, for worship! And yet, there’s this beautiful invitation: “You are my witnesses.” Yahweh invites His people to know Him, to testify to His reality. It’s like He’s saying, “You’ve seen me work—now tell the world!”

Now, let’s shift to the New Testament, to John 4:24, where Yahshua is talking to the Samaritan woman at the well. He says, “Yahweh is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth!” This is such a profound moment. Yahshua reveals that Yahweh isn’t confined to a physical form or a specific place, like a temple or a mountain. He is a spirit being—transcendent, invisible, limitless! This challenges how we think about Yahweh. He’s not a bearded guy on a cloud; He’s beyond our physical categories.

But here’s the kicker: worshiping Him isn’t about rituals or locations—it’s about authenticity, spirit, and truth! It’s about a heart connection, about coming to Him with honesty and faith. This makes Yahweh both infinitely vast and intimately accessible. You don’t need a pilgrimage to find Him; you just need a sincere heart.

Finally, let’s close with Revelation 22:13, where Yahshua declares, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” This verse ties everything together. The Elohim who created in Genesis, who revealed Himself as I AM in Exodus, who declared His uniqueness in Isaiah, and who Yahshua revealed as spirit in John—He’s the same Yahweh who stands at the end of time, the Alpha and Omega, yes, the A to Z of existence!

This is such a comforting truth. History isn’t random; it’s held in Elohim’s hands. He was there at the start, He’s here now, and He’ll be there at the end! No matter what chaos or uncertainty we face, Yahweh bookends it all. He’s the constant, the eternal, the one who brings it all to completion!

So, who is Yahweh? From these verses, we see Yahweh who is the Creator of all things, the eternal I AM, the only Savior, a spirit being who seeks authentic worship, and the Alpha and Omega who holds time itself! He’s powerful yet personal, transcendent yet relational, unchanging yet engaged with His creation! Note: God isn’t Yahweh because “God” was not, is not, and will never be Yahweh’s name!!! Click here and here to learn more about this very crucial Bible truth!

Well, many of you are probably shocked by what I’ve covered today, but I want you to know that sharing the genuine Gospel of the good news from Almighty Yahweh and Savior Yahshua is essential to our ministry to spread genuine biblical truths, love, faith, and salvation!

We truly care about you, our dear listeners and readers, and we want you all to learn the genuine truths of the Holy Scripture and not be deceived!

As we close this episode, I want to leave you with a question: How do these truths about Yahweh shape the way you see Him? Maybe take some time to reflect, to read the Bible verses I mentioned here for yourself, or even to pray and connect with our Elohim and Father in heaven who is all these things and more. Until next time. Always remember to stay authentic, stay curious, and keep seeking the truth on your spiritual journey. Let us all be a part of spiritual authenticity, true love, compassion, and not of sensationalized spirituality!

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!

Beware of the Many Anti-Yahshua in the World!

What is Shavuot, the Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost Holy Day About?
The Many Anti-Messiahs in the World: A Wake-Up Call for All Faithfuls to Stay True to the Savior’s Gospel

On this podcast episode, I’ll admonish to beware of the many anti-Yahshua in the world: a wake-up call for All the faithful to stay true to the Bible Gospel of the Savior of humanity, Yahshua the Messiah.

Welcome back to educational podcast, the podcast where we dig deep into the Word of Yahweh to uncover the realities of true faith in a world full of deception. I’m your host, Elder Dan. Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s both sobering and urgent. It’s something the Apostle John warned us about nearly 2,000 years ago, and it’s just as relevant today. We’re talking about the anti-messiahs—yes, plural—already in the world. Buckle up, because this is going to be a wake-up call. Let’s get started.

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.

In 1 John 2:18, the Apostle John drops a bombshell. He writes, “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the anti-messiah is coming, even now many anti-messiahs have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.” Did you catch that? Not one anti-messiah, but many! And they were already in the world in John’s time. So, what does this mean for us today? Who are these anti-messiahs, and how do we spot them? More importantly, how do we protect ourselves from their deception?

Let’s break it down. John isn’t talking about some cartoonish villain with a pitchfork or a single, apocalyptic figure—though, yes, the Bible does speak of a final anti-messiah in other biblical passages. Here, John’s focus is broader and more immediate. An anti-Messiah, at its core, is anyone who opposes Yahshua the Messiah, denies His teachings, or leads people away from the truth of who Yahshua is and what He taught. And here’s the kicker: John says these anti-messiah were already among the early believers, creeping into the Church, spreading false ideas, and causing confusion.

So, who qualifies as an anti-messiah? Let’s get very specific, shall we? According to John, and the broader New Testament, an anti-messiah is anyone who rejects the core truths about Yahshua the Messiah—that He is the Son of Yahweh, the Almighty Father in heaven, fully divine and fully human, who came in the flesh, died for our sins, and rose again. But it’s not just about denying Yahshua with words. It’s also about actions. Yahshua Himself said in John 14:15, “If you love me, keep my commands.” So, anyone who claims to follow Yahshua but lives in a way that contradicts His teachings is actually opposing Him. Yes, they’re anti-Messiah in their behavior!

Think about that for a second. This isn’t just about some far-off boogeyman. This could be the charismatic preacher who twists the Bible to justify greed or immorality. It could be the influencer who claims to be “spiritual” but denies the exclusivity of Yahshua the Messiah as the way, the truth, and the life. It could even be someone in your own church who professes faith but lives in unrepentant sin, leading others astray. These are the anti-messiahs John’s talking about—people who, knowingly or not, are pulling others away from the pure, unadulterated truth of the holy Scripture.

Now, let’s bring this home. Don’t forget that Savior Yahshua didn’t just leave us a set of nice ideas; He gave us a way of life. He taught His apostles how to live, how to love, how to forgive, and how to stand firm in the face of a world that hates the truth. The early Church, as we see in Acts, was marked by radical devotion to Yahshua’s teachings, to fellowship, to prayer, and to sharing the Gospel. They didn’t just talk the talk; they walked the walk. So, when John warns about anti-messiahs, he’s pointing to people who deviate from that original blueprint.

Here’s where it gets real. If someone claims to represent Yahshua but their life or teaching doesn’t line up with what He practiced and taught His original apostles, they’re not just mistaken—they’re dangerous! They’re anti-messiahs in the sense that they’re actively working against Yahshua’s mission! And John’s warning is clear: these people are already here, and they’re not always easy to spot. They might sound convincing. They might have a big following. They might even perform miracles. But if their message or lifestyle contradicts the Yahshua of the Bible, they’re leading people into deception!

So, what do we do about this? How do we avoid being deceived? The Bible gives us three key instructions: be sober, be vigilant, and stay rooted in the truth. First Peter 5:8 says, “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” That’s not just about Satan himself—it’s about the false teachers and deceivers he uses to spread lies. So yes, we need to stay sharp, testing every teaching against Scripture, just like the Bereans did in Acts 17.

Second, we need to stay away from false preachers. The Apostle Paul warns in 2 Corinthians 11 about those who masquerade as “apostles of Yahshua” but are really servants of Satan. If a preacher’s life or message doesn’t align with Yahshua’s teachings, don’t just shrug it off—run the other way! Your soul is too precious to gamble with.

Finally, cling to the truth. The Apostle John says in 1 John 2:24, “As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you.” That means sticking to the Gospel as it was delivered by Yahshua and His original apostles, not chasing after trendy new interpretations or watered-down versions of Christianity and other religious groups. Read the Bible for yourself. Pray for discernment. Surround yourself with genuine believers and followers who are committed to the real Yahshua, not a counterfeit!

Friends, the reality of many anti-messiahs in the world isn’t meant to scare us—it’s meant to wake us up! Yahshua promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against His Church, and that includes the schemes of false preachers. But we have a responsibility to stay vigilant, to guard our hearts, and to hold fast to the truth. The anti-messiahs may be many, but our Savior is much greater. Yes, Yahshua the Messiah is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one can snatch us out of His hand if we stay rooted in Him.

So, here’s my big and firm challenge to our listeners and readers out there: Take a hard and thorough look at the voices you’re listening to! The preachers, the influencers, the religious leaders in your life—are they pointing you to the Yahshua of the Bible, or to something else? Yes, be bold enough to ask tough questions, and don’t be afraid to walk away from anything or anyone that doesn’t line up with the biblical truth! Once again, I admonish all of our dearest readers and listeners out there to beware of the many anti-Yahshua in the world!

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!

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

Who is Yahweh’s Little Flock to Which Yahshua Refers?
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.

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

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

Why Aren't Women Permitted to Preach in Churches?
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.
