Contradictions
I absolutely love contradictions in the Bible. Yep, you heard me right. When I find a contradiction in Scripture, I know there’s something deeper going on that isn’t visible on the surface. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22) But if…

Loss is Subjective
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win…

What It’s All About
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Matthew 15:24 (KJV) Lost sheep of the house of Israel – This is what it’s all about. If we don’t understand this, then we don’t understand why Yeshua was sent. Despite the claims of anyone else,…

Washing Hands
“Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don’t wash their hands before they eat!” Matthew 15:2 (NIV) Before they eat – There’s a lot going on here that non-Jews may not realize. In fact there’s a lot going on which the NIV completely misses and therefor misinterprets. It all has to…
