What
It Means To Walk In The Spirit
(1
hr. 6 min. 35 sec.) H. Castillo
One
of the most common beliefs among many people is that the Spirit of our
Heavenly Father has done away with his very word (Laws) etc. This
message will explain that nothing can be further from the truth.
Similarly it will teach us about what the Spirit is and how it is
working in our lives. Understanding this is very important for any
sincere follower of the Way of Truth!
Passover:
Yahshua Is The Reason For The Season
(40 min 13sec) R.
Castillo
The
intent of our walk is for us to convert our fleshly minds into spiritual
thoughts and understandings; this can only be done by the grace of our
Heavenly Father, our commitment and obedience. This message reminds us
that to grow in the spirit we must have a fervent mind for the things of
our Heavenly Father. We must allow Him to convert us through His Word
and we must avoid involving ourselves in the things of this world.
Cause
and Affect in Scripture (29
min 30 sec) W. Wilkinson
The
Scriptures teach us that to everything we do there are positive and
negative consequences; blessings and curses. When we focus on the things of our Creator we
benefit from his blessings, when we don't we are apart from his
blessings and his peace. Brother Wayne reminds us
to stay focused on the words of our Heavenly Father and not on the
"stuff," material good of this world.
Growing
in the Spirit (54 min 10 sec) H.
Castillo
The
intent of our walk is for us to convert our fleshly minds into spiritual
thoughts and understandings; this can only be done by the grace of our
Heavenly Father, our commitment and obedience. This message reminds us
that to grow in the spirit we must have a fervent mind for the things of
our Heavenly Father. We must allow Him to convert us through His Word
and we must avoid involving ourselves in the things of this world.
The
Tree of Knowledge (48 min 8 sec) D.
Wilson
For
those of us who ever wondered about the Tree of knowledge that was given
to humanity in the Garden of Eden; this message is for you. You will
find this to be very interesting and challenging message to those
that have had a conventional understanding about what the Tree of
Knowledge really was.
On
Spiritual Gifts (1 hr. 29 min 8 sec) R.
Castillo
On
spiritual Gifts is a wonderful message that reminds us about the
importance of recognizing that we all have spiritual abilities which do
and must enhance our families, assemblies and most importantly our
relationship with our maker.
Under
the Law or under Grace? (part II) (47 min
5 sec) M. Herren
In
this message, being the second part to the message noted below, our
brother Mike reaches deeper into the scriptures and challenges the
argument that the Law is done away with. This message will clarify some
of Paul's statements regarding the Law and you will be able to
understand how Paul saw the Law.
Under the
Law Or Under Grace? (part I) (25 min 28 sec)
M. Herren
A
popular saying among many people is "We are not under the Law but
under grace!" The intended message here of course is that the idea
of receiving "grace" is a New Testament phenomena and not
found or given in the Old Testament. Nothing
can be further from the truth! The fact is that the idea of being under
grace is found and established in the Old Testament. In other words, in
the Old Testament we find a balance between 'receiving grace' and living
an 'orderly life' (law). This message clarifies the misunderstanding
that people have about what Paul was really talking about. It will help
you understand that what was established in the Old Testament continues
to this day. In other words, the words of our savior "I came not to
do away with the law..." Matt 5:17 are really true, despite of what
people are being taught in this day and age.
The
Torah: Defined (1 hr 4 min 8 sec) H.
Castillo
Most
people have been wrongly taught that the Torah is "the first five
books of the Bible" sometimes called the 'Decalogue'. This
message will clarify and define exactly what the Scriptures mean when
they use the word Torah. Although most people translate Torah as
"Law" this definition does not really justify the true meaning
of what Torah means. This message sits on the plate of being real meat
for those who want to advance their scriptural studies and it will be
something new to most of you.
Understanding
The Hebrew Mindset (1 hr. 12 min)
M. Herren
In
this message our brother Mike teaches us about the importance in
understanding the Hebrew mindset. For one thing we know that those that
wrote the Bible, especially those who wrote the Old Testament spoke and
had a Hebrew mindset. Their culture and the way they saw the world was
completely different than the way that the Greek's saw their world. This
is important because Greek theology has permeated our western mindset
and it has affected the way that we see the Scriptures. It would be also
important to remember that those that lived during the New Testament era
also had a culture surrounded around the Hebrew mindset.
Love
YHWH With All Your Heart (29 min
08 sec) W. Wilkinson
This
message is based on the Jewish prayer call the "Shema";
this Jewish prayer is based out of Deut. 6:4. Recognizing that YHWH is
the only Might One is something that even the Messiah taught when he
walked on this earth. This message will teach the importance of adopting
and accepting the thought that YHWH is the only mighty one on this earth
and the fact that our Messiah was sent to save us.
Do
You Love Me? (29 min 25 sec) W. Wilkinson
Everyone
claims that they Love the creator; but what do the Scriptures say about
how we demonstrate our love to Him? This message will help us understand
what it really means to love and what me must do to demonstrate that
love. Brother Wayne reminds us that our Father's love cannot be bought,
sold or traded. Our Heavenly Father gives us His love for free and all
we have to do is uncover it, return to it and cherish
it.
"Separation (10 min 25 sec )
M. Castillo
This
analysis of separation from a young man's perspective is an excellent
study for anybody that thinks that we can be of Yahweh and walk in the
ways of the world. True success in life depends on our daily walk
with Yahweh and following the ways of Yahshua. Life without the Savior
leads to death but life with Yahshua leads to the resurrection.
Freedom
Knowledge and the Torah (59 min 27 sec ) H. Castillo
"Torah"
is a Hebrew word that is generally rendered 'Law' in the English. This
has caused much confusion in the English speaking world about what the
Torah really is. This message will challenge you to think outside the
box and to adopt a Hebraic mindset so that you can put yourself in the
shoes of those that wrote the Scriptures. Thereby opening your mind up
to understand what they wrote, thought and how they saw their world and
their surroundings.
Ten
Witnesses to Yahshua's Sinless Life (8 min
32 sec ) M. Castillo
It
is commonly believed across the religious sector that our Savior lived a
sinless life. In this short message, our young teacher, reminds us that
our savior was perfect in every way and it is our responsibility to
strive for that perfection in our lives! In truth, striving to be the
best in obedience, understanding and love is not a recommendation but a
must for all true believers.
True
Love Equals Obedience (36 min 07 sec ) H.
Castillo
During
the Christmas season we get a lot of pressure from the media to buy
gifts for, as they put it, "those that you love". The psychological warfare
perpetrated by the media has worked so well that millions of people connect the buying
of material things with the action of loving their family. The Bible on the other hand teaches us that 'True Love' comes
from obedience to our Heavenly Father! This message discusses the fact that
according to Scripture we demonstrate our love for one another when we
are obedient to our Father. Furthermore it reminds us that through the
Bible our Father commands his people to abstain from pagan
influences.
The
Parable of the Sower (1 Hr 1 min 51 sec)
D. Wilson
This
very well known parable has been presented and understood in various
ways. Our brother Dwayne takes an approach which connects the
sowing of seed to the sowing of people. Our brother discusses the fact
that our Heavenly Father has sown us in our families and in our world
(environment).
Therefore since we want to be good seeds we must live our lives so that we
can sow good relationships with our family, friends and loved ones. The
fruit of our spiritual growth must be manifested and demonstrated by
living lives that are geared by the word (watering) of our Heavenly
Father and our Master Yahshua!
A
Friend of Our Maker (36 min 26 sec ) R.
Castillo
Being
a friend of Our Heavenly Father and Savior Yahshua takes a lot of commitment
on our part. Being a true friend requires trust, caring and honesty. The
Scriptures teach us that we can be a friend of our Heavenly Father if we
are trusting and obedient to His word and if we live lives that emulate
our Savior's. This is a good message because it reminds us that we all
have the ability to have a Friend that will never let us down; one that
will help us in tough times, who does not discriminate nor stereotype
and His words are always true. Let us all seek to have a Friend that
will always be there for us!
You
Don't have to be right to be right! (34 min
35 sec)
K. Wilson
This
message is a human relations lesson for all of us! Brother Keith reminds
us that the most appropriate ways to communicate with one another
requires patience, love and the ability to give advice or to criticize
in a positive way. Anybody that is looking to improve their
relationships will benefit from hearing and applying Keith's lessons.
Day
of Atonement (2008) (50 min 32 sec) M. Herren
"Yom
Kippur" The Day of Atonement, is considered to be one of the Holiest
Days of the Scriptural year; our brother Mike Herren teaches us about
the connection between this Day, the Ark of the Covenant and our
Messiah.
Raising
Righteous Children (13 min 30 sec) J.
Lamb
Raising
children is tough business; particularly in this material world. The
lusts of the world, violence and sex is aimed at our children from ever
angle. That is why it is important that our children learn of the
righteous ways at an early age. But teaching them is best done when the
parents lead by an example. This message will remind you that if we who
are parents want to raise righteous and dedicated children, we must be
their primary example. We must uphold moral lives, speak kind words and
walk in the ways of the Scriptures.
Repentance
for the Wicked and the Believer (41 min
42 sec) M. Herren
The
message of repentance to the sinner is a popular one; however we
sometimes forget that even the believer has to engage in a lifestyle of repentance.
This message reminds us that repentance should be looked upon as a
lifestyle and that we need to master all the facets of our lives towards
righteousness. From the words that we speak to the way that we behave it
must all be guided by a life of Torah. Our Master Yahshua was the
perfect example, he paved the way so we could follow.
Create
In Me A Clean Heart
(13 min 12 sec) R. Castillo
This is a short but
powerful message; the importance of having a clean heart before our
Heavenly Father cannot be underrated! The goal of the Messiah is to
purify us through his life and resurrection. It is up to us
however to walk in such a way that shows others our pure heart! In
essence, a clean heart and righteous actions go hand in hand.
Torah
Before Mount Sinai (15 min 17 sec) W. Wilkinson
Many people think that
the commandments (teaching) were first given to Moses on Mount Sinai.
This is simply not true! This message albeit brief, will clarify that
the commandments were understood by the patriarchs long before the
Exodus and that they continue to hold value even to this
day.
Stay
Out Of Egypt
(26 min 39 sec) M. Herren
As any deep Scriptural
student knows, many of the Scriptural messages that are given in the
Bible are two fold. The message of 'staying out of Egypt' is such a message. This message will present the scriptural concept that once you
come out of sin (Egypt) you are no longer to return to it.
The Confession Of Faith
(55 min 13 sec) H. Castillo
Romans 10:9 seems to
indicate that all you have to do is to 'verbally' declare that you
believe and that salvation will be granted unto you. This idea is a
Greek mythological idea and it is not what the
disciples were teaching during their life time. This message will teach you
about what Romans 10:9 really means and how the confession of faith is
tied into Salvation.
Walk
With The Spirit
(32 min 06 sec) M. Herren
Are you considering a Biblical
lifestyle? This message will teach you about how the Spirit of our
Father works in our lives and how the spirit leads us to righteousness.
When we walk by the spirit we won't carry out the desires of the flesh!
Loving The Name Of The Savior (54 min 52 sec) H. Castillo
It
is sad that the most important Name given among men is not known by the
masses. This Name has been ignored, avoided and simply not taught by
most ministers. Any individual that is seeking for truth in all things
will be rewarded and will appreciate this
message. Our Savior's true Name is important because it describes his purpose,
characteristics and full prophetic fulfillment! In essence our
Savior is the link that connects us to our Heavenly Father; his Name
is a very strong connection and it should not be denied.
Are We A Cult? (50min 9sec) H. Castillo
Many
people think that our beliefs are cultish because they don't line up
with what most churches teach. However when you compare what some
churches teach to what the Bible says, it doesn't take long to realize
that their are some major disparities. This message presents our
most basic beliefs in a way that will enhance the understanding of any
good Bible student. Furthermore it clearly points out some of the
disparities that some churches are teaching their members.
A Brief Look At Baptism (19min 41sec) M. Herren
Is
the Spirit of Yahweh moving you to receive the Baptism of salvation
[restoration]?
Perhaps you have already been baptized and you need a reminder of
what your immersion meant? In either case, our brother Mike does a great
job of reminding us just how important immersion really is. He reminds us
that without it we cannot enter the covenant governed by our Savior
Yahshua! Although this message is brief in nature, it does a great job
of covering the basics of baptism and reminds us that at baptism all of
our sins are washed away. (visit our articles page for an
article on baptism)
Victory Over Battles
(30min 20sec) D. Wilson
Do
some of your personal battles seem so difficult that you want to give
up? This message clarifies that if you have confidence in our Heavenly
Father your battles are won before they even begin. Therefore we must
remain steadfast and be faithful to Him. We must trust and believe that
when we walk with Him we will be victorious despite how difficult our
battles might seem. Our brother Dwayne encourages us to have faith and to
know that our battles are already won!
The Twelve Gates Of New Jerusalem
(34min.
17 sec) H. Castillo
Have
you ever wondered what the twelve gates of New Jerusalem signify? It is
important for us to know why they have the names of the twelve tribes of
Israel and of the twelve disciples. More importantly we need to know
through what gate we can enter. This message will explain all of that; furthermore it
will clarify how our earthly father, Abraham, who is not an Israelite will enter
New Jerusalem.
Repentance
(22min. 33sec)
H. Castillo
One
of the steps we must take to restore a damaged relationship is to seek forgiveness when we
offend or when
we sin. Brother Hector reminds us that when we sin it is necessary that we
go before
our maker and that we seek His forgiveness. He encourages us to believe in
forgiveness and that we change our way of life so it conforms to the
Scriptures.
