I have a Facebook friend who constantly posts pro-Torah things, and especially things by Skip Moen... anyway, it's VERY DIFFICULT to talk about how the Law of Moses has been fulfilled, and that we're no longer under it, without coming across as, or being accused of, being anti-Torah or anti-nomian...
Yes, it is! Unfortunately, many "Torah observant" Christians are unwilling or unable to take a proper, balanced view of Scripture and instead paint everything in black and white. We've got a 1-minute video coming out this week that addresses that very issue. RLS
Martin Luther bought the Blble to the masses translating it into German. Luther celebrated Christmas and Easter that's all I need to know. Luther had much to say about Jews as well.
I truly love your channel and have learned a lot. I have a very close family member who feels that the moral laws were never replaced by Jesus. Which in a way is true. They feel that the lessons and Galatians doesn’t count towards the moral laws from the Torah and therefore we should still have the Saturday Sabbath, stay away from pork and shrimp etc…, and that we need to continue to practice The Feasts and Festivals. They follow Armstrongism. What do I say to them?
Imagine Jesus celebrating the feast of saturnalia, calling it his birthday, and expecting God to be okay with it! Complete with the tree, mistletoe, chestnuts etc. Roman catholic church invented Xmas! The Christians follow the Catholics Israel tried to worship God with their own traditions and God judged them for it! Idolatry is something Israel struggled with throughout their history. So they understand and recognize idolatry. The Jesus that mainstream Christianity sells through traditions like Xmas is rightly recognized as idolatry by Israel, so I don't blame them for not accepting this Jesus that mainstream Christianity is trying to sell. So somehow Christians expect God to accept their offerings of idolatry, when He wouldn't accept it from the Israelites, ..... because your Catholic/Christian!???
Hi, Debby! Yes, the "laws" of God that define right and wrong were true long before the Law of Moses was given. So when God commands us not to murder today, it’s not because of the Ten Commandments. It’s because of His universal principle against murder. Long before God gave Israel the Law of Moses, Cain was judged for murdering his brother Abel (Gen 4:8-16). Same thing with sexual morality. Under the New Covenant, God doesn’t forbid adultery because of the Ten Commandments. Unfaithfulness and sexual immorality were wrong long before the Law of Moses, as we see, for example, in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen 18-19). Because mankind was made in God’s image, we have a “compass” of objective morality, so to speak, baked into our human DNA. And under the New Covenant, God's law is written on our hearts. The food laws are not a matter of morality in and of themselves. They are a matter of ceremonial or ritual purity. It is, of course, immoral to disobey God about anything He commands us to do. But eating animals, for example, that were not ritually slaughtered is not a matter of morality on its own. God was just fine with sojourners and foreigners eating those things (Deut 14:21). They were only forbidden for the Israelites. The Bible teaches that the Law of Moses was given at a specific time to specific people for a specific purpose. Much of what was given at Mount Sinai included God's universal "laws" about right and wrong and loving God, which were in effect long before the Law was given. But the purpose of the Law of Moses was not to set a new moral standard. It was to turn a ragtag group of recent slaves into the nation of Israel and set them apart for God. And embedded in those Mosaic laws of ceremony, ritual, distinction, and civil order were shadows that pointed to Christ. And it's _those_ laws that have been fulfilled by Christ and are no longer binding under the New Covenant. I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6). Blessings, Rob
@@TheBiblicalRootsoh I'm flabbergasted, I can't read past this idea you just passed by this woman. That God changed His mind on adultery, that on the new covenant He's alright with it. Yikes!!!!!! GOD HATES ADULTERY PERIOD! You obviously missed the part where Jesus condemns the woman to stoning! At that moment, she was on deaths door! The caveat was there was no one there who could cast the 1st stone. They may have all been guilty of this. Jesus knew something was up, because where was the man that she was caught with! When they all left, He had to let her go because He knew it was Torah to let her go! It says there HAS to be 2 or 3 witnesses! That's Torah! So she got off, BUT He warned her to not sin again. In other words don't be in an adulterous relationship again! Paul gives us a list of the sin that leads to death and adultery IS on it! YOU HAD BETTER STOP WITH ERRONEOUS TEACHING, BECAUSE GOD HOLDS THOSE WHO TEACH FALSLY TO HIGHER STANDARDS! Meaning you will answer for it!
Even though I disagree with Prof. Solberg, I value his thoughtful and well done teaching on "Torahism", there are some very bad teachings on how to be a "Torah Observant, Messianic Christian", and its very important to stay grounded in God's written word, study well, and be loving and kind to one another even when we disagree. And the Professor does this well. I had a brief yet friendly Debate with a person on TikTok who was very heavily promoting Prof. Solberg's book, and speaking his critical views on "Messianic/Torah Observant Christianity", in fact I thought for a moment it was the Professor, But, I'm sure he has better things to do with his time?, :) the Antagonist ironically deleted his TikTok account after our discussion, which was very odd to me. but it happens. I look forward to viewing his material and examining the scriptures to make sure that for myself as a "Messianic Christian Pastor" my understanding of all sides of the discussion are well informed, well thought out, and well compared to the written Scriptures, thank you Prof. Solberg for your timely, and thorough analysis of the Scriptures, and of the burgeoning Messianic/Torah Observant Christian Movement, even if i disagree with some of your conclusions. I believe you are a good and Godly man, teaching GOD's word with diligence. SHALOMI MY HOMEY! Tiktok "Digital Pastor Jim", Messianic Pastor.
I watched Professor Solberg Interview with Dr. Michael Brown, fantastic Interview. I appreciated the Balanced perspective and great comments concerning Messianic Christians, and Messianic Jews, LOVE IT!

Agree 100% Teaching against the law and not keeping it is pure rebellion to our Heavenly Father and rebellion is the same as witchcraft! (1 Samuel 15:23, Hebrews 3:15, 2 Thess 2:3)
Christ fulfilled the Law. We could not (and cannot). Recieve Jesus and His Gift IN FULL or you're telling God he did not Finish what He came to do. And if so, you will not enter in.
@@OLskewL are you saying that those who choose to obey God by keeping his Commandments and his laws cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven? 🤣 who do you think the dragon is coming to make war with in the end days? “Then the dragon became furious with the woman and went off to make war on the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. And he stood on the sand of the sea.” Revelation 12:17 Jesus did come to fulfill the law. As well as the prophets! So if he did away with the law, then Shirley, he did away with the profits as well. The word fulfill is pleroo in the Greek which means to fully do or fully preach. And we can do them. “For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.” 1 John 5:3 Those who claim against keeping God‘s commandments or laws don’t realize that they are teaching to live a life of sin since sin is lawlessness. “Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.” 1 John 3:4 So in other words, to repent from sin is to turn away from lawlessness and start keeping God‘s commandments.
"Who is this that obscures my plans with words without knowledge?" 👈🧐 The Lord asked of Job & still has many applications today! HRM lack the grand plan. Mosaic covenant made completion of the Abrahamic covenant possible (father to many nations/Gentiles). Gentiles have NO PART in the Mosaic covenant & were never meant to! We Gentiles come into the Kingdom of heaven by faith just as Abraham did (Romans 4 : 16)
@godsgoodnessandgrace Why do you say there are "lots of attacks here about rhe truth"? If anyone attacks you for your beliefs, let them be attacked for theirs.
So, if all of the Law if Moses was discarded by Jesus, the Word (i.e., Torah, Prophets, Writings, Gospels, Epistles, and Revelation made flesh), then why did Jesus command people He healed to go and do what Moses commanded at the Temple?; why did Paul circumcize Timothy right after the Council at Jerusalem where they decided that new converts should be taught 4 basic commandments from the Torah?; why did Jesus never say one word against the Sabbath but instead reminded people that it's lawful to do good on the Sabbath? Let's say someone suddenly invents a teleportation device costing consumers only $1. Overnight all traffic laws would, indeed, be rendered meaningless ... but that wouldn't necessitate the abolishment of all laws governing other areas of life. Similarly, Jesus' self sacrifice on the cross did render all laws pertaining to the priesthood and animal sacrifice at the Temple obsolete, but that doesn't mean that all laws were so rendered. Indeed, in Hebrews 4 we read about the ongoing necessity of Sabbath-observance, not for salvation but, yes, for both our good and for obedience's sake (i.e., obeying God's behavioral do's and don'ts from a heart of love and humility is always valid, which is why, when Jesus explained who will enter and who will not enter His kingdom, He gave nothing more and nothing less than lists of behaviors, something that the Parable of the Talents also implies). Indeed, the last few chapters of Acts are all about Paul standing up against "false" accusations that, in teaching about Christ, he was simultaneously preaching against the Law. Paul's own behavior showed that he upheld the Law, even 14 years after his conversion and longer. In Matthew 5:17-23 Jesus upholds the Law, emphasizing how none of it shall pass away until after heaven and Earth pass away. I believe He was overstating His point in order to make it clear, just like when He told followers that, in order to follow Him, they would have to eat His flesh and drink His blood. Jesus knew full well that His death and Resurrection would render unnecessary part of the Torah commandments, but ... still, He wanted to make sure that no one would interpret future events as an indication that all of the Law had been done away with. Indeed, a better word selection for the Greek "pleroo" in Matthew 5:17, traditionally translated with the English word "fulfill," is "fully preach," "fully reveal," or "fully make known" ... translations that align much better with the context of the immediate verses, whereas "fulfill" does not fit. Consider: The Torah was the Word that Paul commanded the Bereans to test his teachings against. Lastly, I know that arguments from silence generally are not strong ones, however, it's simply true that in all of the places in the New Testament where one would expect to read words from Paul, Jesus, and others denouncing the Law and teaching a replacement doctrine, we simply do not find them. Again, Paul ended up in Rome ultimately to spread the Gospel, yes, but it all started with him having to stand before various rulers in defending his reputation as a Torah-observant Christian. A good video to watch is 119 Ministries' "Which Law, Paul?" on UA-cam or www.testeverything.net.
Hebrews 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, Matthew 19: 16- And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? 17- And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
2Tim.3 Verses 16 to 17 [16] All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Galatians 5:18 and 32 no law if we walk after the spirit. It also does not mean don't keep the commandments it's a deeper more intimate way to worship and be obedient to God

Concerning the destruction of the temple 2000 years ago, he stated that why would God allow the destruction of the temple if the Mosaic law is still in effect? Will that was not the first time that the temple was destroyed. Solomon's Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians and Nebuchadnezzar and the temple was not rebuilt for over 70 years after that. And the Mosaic law was not done away with during that time.
What's interesting is that when that first temple was destroyed and Israel was sent into exile, God specifically told them their exile would last 70 years (Jer 25:9-13) and what they should do while in exile (Jer. 29). But that was not the case with the destruction of the second temple. RLS
@@TheBiblicalRoots the spirit never returned to the 2nd temple nor herods. Only the third and final temple did he fully return. We are that temple if we have the Holy Spirit
@@TheBiblicalRootsso, essentially, Jesus died and rose, and jews as well as gentiles started to rapidly convert to the new covenant and then later on the temple was destroyed again, God never stopped it, and at that time even till this very day, Jesus is the only way to God.....
This is 1 reason (or 4.5?) why Jesus is a false messiah. The Torah of G-d is eternal, and is at the heart of the prophesied “new covenant.” Anyone teaching against it is false.
Yes we can... The gospel is the real keeping of the torah.. in a renewed way. Walking in torah is what Jesus told us all the way... Its not complicated. The evangelical gospel is a romanic gospel. The new testament never told us to abolish torah, but to keep it in the right way. Remember the torah were the books that Jesus and all the apostoles used, and the all the disciples for about 300 years. All the time the new testament is talking about the scriptures its talking about the Torah...they didn't have new testament, neither they thought they would have one.
(Exod 31:13 [KJV]) Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it [is] a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that [ye] may know that I [am] the LORD that doth sanctify you. Sacrifices do not or ever cleanse us from our sins. But it is the father that cleanses us from our sins. (John 12:32 [KJV]) And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all [men] unto me.
"In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it, because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living. This is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood." ~ Hebrews 9 : 16ff
Our "Torah-observant" friends often put all their "eggs" in the basket of Matt. 5:17-20. And the problem is that the Bible consists of more than just those four verses. So, if we interpret Matt. 5:17-20 as teaching that the entire Law of Moses will be in effect until Heaven and Earth pass away, we then need to explain the 5 biblical examples in this video, which unequivocally show that the Mosaic commands regarding sin atonement, the priesthood, the temple, etc. have all changed in material ways. RLS
made righteous before he went up the mountain. Abraham was made riteous by faith not sacrifice. Others on the planet did not sacrifice and were not Jewish..and went to heaven. Melkisidec was not Jewish.
@@biblethumper1624 Good point, thumper. Seems it's just the one commandment that God specifically said to "Remember" that most Christians are wanting to forget.
Yeah, and they usually concentrate on the 17-19 and don't think about what 20 actually means. "Unless your righteousness is GREATER than the legal experts and the pharisees you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." Well, I know that I could never be greater than the legal experts at keeping the law. So what, no one gets in? Only a select few? Then what was the point of Christ?

08.26.2023 Thank you again for your teachings Brother Solberg. (I still need to catch your Part 2 interview w/M.Brown, I think his name is.) Anyway, I've posted some of my short time experience w/the HRM folks a few times. I won't post the name of the man they were folllowing; although he does have a channel. Or at least did the time I came upon him & to chat w/others you had to link in w/your email addy/phone# & give a real or made up moniker. It really bothered them, if when you logged on, you didn't sign in publicly or if you signed on as a "guest". Anyway, when I came upon the channel, yes, as you've mentioned ... at 1st I was curious, etc. Oh I couldn't believe that I was celebrating Christmas, a "pagan" holiday to the HRM. I threw out all my Christmas decor & told my family that I no longer observed that particular day (the 25th). One of the things that REALLY irked the "inner circle" of the group was that I was using Jesus' name instead of "Yeshua" or one of several names they used. I felt as I was pressured into changing my moniker from Jesus to Yeshua. Also, at least 2 of them said Paul's letters gave them headaches, as well as calling "Christians" names or having a hatred of them. Oh I could go on & on, but I'll just mention a couple other things. They were really diligent about keeping the Sabbath or Shabat? (Friday nite to Saturday nite) & the Feasts, etc. So I stopped working on Sunday. Although, where I live, there are no HRM temples or people that I could locate; so all of my "interaction" w/them was done online. And I believe a few other members only commun- icated in this way, concerning their faith. Concerning questions. Yes, if anyone came on to chat & asked SIMPLE questions, unless you almost immediately agreed w/the HRM teachings, you'ld be bombarded w/negative comments. 👑JESUS IS LORD!!!👑
I notice an interesting trend in the comments section of this video. Those "Torah-observant" followers of Jesus who believe we're all supposed to keep the Mosaic rituals are bringing up lots of general arguments. But they're not responding to the 4.5 reasons presented in this video about why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus and the Law of Moses at the same time. I would love to hear someone who disagrees actually challenge the arguments presented here. Because if any of these five points is true, then the law of Moses is no longer in effect. -RLS
Did God says the Laws of Moses went away? When God says it then it's TRUE but when some man try to decide what God has already decided then you know its false and nothing but lies.
Have you forgotten that God last forever. So does his ways traditions his words and his laws. They have been here since time started and will stay for along as forever is. You would know that is you know how mighty and great God is. GOD IS BOUND BY NOTHING. GOD DOES WHAT HE PLEASES AND GOD IS RULER OF EVERYTHING. START TREATING GOD LIKE THE GOD HE IS DO WHAT HE SAYS NOT WHAT YOU THINK THATS THE REASON FOR EVERYTHING A LESSON. MAN HAS DONE WHAT THEY WANTED AND HAS PAID FOR IT DEARLY. BUT ITS CLEARLY SHOWS THAT IF YOU FOLLOW EVERYTHING ABOUT GOD THEN YOU ARE BLESSED AND WILL BE PROSPEROUS.
@@Gigi2four then why did jesus say he didnt come to do away with the Law or the prophets but to fufill it.

I'm going to be honest, Glen. I know I should be offended when someone bears false witness against me like this. But it cracks me up when people who don't know me personally and have never met me assign sinister motives to me, or make claims about what I think or believe. It's especially entertaining when the claims include no rebuttal to the points I made in the video.

@@TheBiblicalRoots False witness? So my claim that you don't keep the Sabbath is false is it? Sinister motives? If you are teaching people to break the Sabbath, you have the best of motives, but the one who has deceived you does not.
This man is a living example of someone who has fallen afoul of; Isaiah 28:13 - But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
This is who God is speaking to in Isaiah 28: "Priests and prophets stagger from beer and are befuddled with wine; they reel from beer, they stagger when seeing visions, they stumble when rendering decisions. All the tables are covered with vomit and there is not a spot without filth." ~ Isaiah 28 : 7ff
@@kimartist Are you trying to say that Isaiah 28:9-13 only applies to official priests & prophets of God and not to anyone else? So what, ordinary people are immune from Isaiah's instructions & warning as to how the scriptures must be studied? Really, that makes sense to you?
Maybe read the whole passage. It's about a drunk that can only understand nursery rhymes. Here a little ,there is a little is a mocking poem in Hebrew. Don't believe me, look it up. And read the conclusion. They fall, are broken and snared. Secondly, are you an Adventist?
@@vegacool1 I found one article about the poem. It didn't quote the whole poem but It was an anti-Isaiah article, so no bias in my favour there. Yes, Isaiah does condemn the literal drunkenness of the priests & prophets, and I can believe that Isaiah may have subtly referenced this poem in order to rub the message in - maybe. But if you think that's all there is to it, I don't think it's me that needs to read the whole passage (chapter 28). Firstly, whats the problem with the drunkeness? It results in these people being unable to correctly discern the truth - see v7. Secondly, it's far more serious than just literal drunkenness. They are also deliberate purveyors of lies & falsehood - see v15. Thirdly, Isaiah referring to them as drunks is also condemning of their unclean spiritual state, they are not only physical drunkards they are drunkards spiritually. This is what v8 means when it says; "For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean." (The Bible also uses filthy clothes to indicate spiritual uncleanness.) If you think v13 is only about literal drunkenness and nothing else, how do you explain v9&10? V9 makes the point, that in order to learn knowledge & understand doctrine you have to be a spiritual adult, not a spiritual baby. And v10 explains how you get this knowledge & understanding of doctrine. It says; "FOR", in order to learn knowledge & doctrine, "... precept MUST be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:" It's not possible to make v10 about drunkenness, it's clearly about how God/the Bible teaches knowledge & doctrine. As v9 has already said, its about; "Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?" Also if v13 is drunkenness then v10 would logically also have to be drunkenness - and that makes zero sense. Why? Because that would mean, that in order to learn knowledge & understand doctrine (v9), God is recommending drunkenness as the best way to go (v10). V13 follows on from v9&10 and states what happens if you don't follow the instructions already given in v9&10. V13 is presented as the opposite of v10 and restates the instruction of v10. V13 is clearly saying, if you don't follow the instructions of v10 you will: " ... fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken." In other words you won't learn knowledge & you won't understand doctrine. If you think simplistically, this is just about drunkenness and nothing else, you have not been weaned from the milk, or drawn from the breasts. No, not Adventist, it's much worse. Will elaborate if you so desire. NEXT {You yourself know you can't keep the commandments in thought word or deed.}
Great points raised in your video! I always found it rather puzzling how many pastors and teachers try to balance Malachi chapter 3 with 2nd Corinthians chapter 9 to support their Tithing doctrines. There seems to be a serious disconnect and inconsistency on the subject of giving in particular....and the congregation sits quietly while none raise a hand to question.
This cannot be serious... The LORD rebuke you ! Explain this verse then: Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Hello, Marcos! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6). RLS
Thankful for your ministry and how you are being used. What commandments do we follow? What were the commandments since creation? How is the Law of Christ different? They always argue (If you love me, you will keep my commandments). I have had some HR say, they see the 10 commandments are forever, and are distinct from the Mosaic Laws. Some say we are not in the new covenant, yet still profess Jesus. The other part that could use clarity is so many believe they are from the 10 Lost Tribes or one of the 12. They don’t see the church as a distinct entity. Would love for you to delve into these topics more. 🙏🙌🏻
They don't understand that there are TWO covenants.... (Actually there are more - Noahidic, for example, which obviously doesn't apply to us now other than the promise implied by the rainbow.) 1) MOSAIC COVENANT which Jesus literally & legally fulfilled to make it possible for the: 2) ABRAHAMIC COVENANT to be fulfilled (father of many nations/Gentiles), i.e. now everyone (Jew & Gentile) has access to the Kingdom of heaven by faith (Romans 4 : 16)

SHALOM !
@@OneSparrow-76 I think JeffSmith is talking about the “works of the law” as the yoke of slavery (Galatians 3:10). The works of the law are not the Law of Moses, but the law of men. But actually Gentiles who became Christians were instructed as to what portion of the Law they needed to keep along with the moral law, which is universal (Acts 15). For historical purposes, we need to remember that at the beginning of the first century there was no Christian religion, but a branch of Judaism called “The Way” or Netzarim, which was made up of Jews and Gentiles (only later in Acts 11:26 they're called christians for the first time). Because of some Pharisee believers who wanted the Gentiles to keep the entire Torah, the apostles called the council of Jerusalem in Acts 15. Returning to the present day, Jews from the Messianic Judaism keep their culture and the Torah, except for the laws of sacrifice (because Jesus has already completed in perfect form) and others that are fullfilled by the authorities. The Body of Christ will be made up of Jewish believers and Gentile believers in harmony, loving one another as oneself. This is the Church. May God bless you my friend!
I See it also this way: Galatians 3:12 The law is not of faith Romans 14:23 Everything that does not Proceed out of faith is sin So anyone who Puts himself under law is sinning. There is no cherry picking allowed. All of the law and failure and sinning or grace and being dead to the law and dead to sin.
@schnittteisen The law (i.e. Mosaic covenant) was the framework by which Jesus' death became salvatory. It wasn't enough just to kill Jesus, there had to be a legal framework which made His expiation legally binding for all time. The problem the Torahists have is they are focusing on non-salvific portions of law (food & days), patting themselves on the back for it & missing the entire point of Jesus' death. They say their law-keeping activities aren't for salvation, but the ENTIRE POINT of the Mosaic covenant was FOR SALVATION. It's like missing the forest for the trees.
I would add a 6th stage- Apostate. Many end up rejecting parts of scripture, then the Apostle Paul and ultimately Jesus Christ Himself. It is truly sad.
Who is Paul or any apostle except that they teach YESHUAS teachings and echo Moses, and the prophets through the eyes and teachings of YESHUA. No apostle had the right to author new teachings or scripture. Only echo what was laid and to testify to all they saw.
The law was added to highlight humanity's need for a Savior and to make people aware of their sinfulness. Before the law, sin was still present in the world, but the law made it explicit and undeniable. Paul explains that the law was given so that "the trespass might increase" (Romans 5:20). This means that the law was designed to expose sin and make people conscious of their need for God's grace. In Galatians, Paul further clarifies that "the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith" (Galatians 3:24-25). The law served as a temporary measure to guide people until the coming of Jesus, who fulfilled the law and offered a new way of righteousness through faith. Additionally, the law was never intended to be a means of achieving righteousness. Paul states, "For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law" (Galatians 3:21). Instead, the law pointed out humanity's inability to achieve righteousness on their own, thereby pointing them to the need for a Savior. In summary, the law was added to reveal sin, to act as a guardian until Christ, and to show the impossibility of achieving righteousness through human effort (Romans 3:20, Galatians 3:19).
Matthew 5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor [Leviticus 19:18] and hate your enemy [Deuteronomy 23:6].’ 44 "But I say to you [Hebrews 7:11-12], love your enemies [John 13:34; John 15:12; Ephesians 5:1-2; Galatians 5:22; 1 Corinthians 13], bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you," John 13:34 "A new commandment I give to you [1 John 2:8; Hebrews 7:11-12; Hebrews 8; Luke 5:36-39; Psalm 78:2; Ezekiel 17:2; Matthew 13:3-23], that you love one another [Matthew 5:44]; as I have loved you [John 15:12; Galatians 5:22], that you also love one another." John 15:12 "This is My commandment, that you love one another [Matthew 5:44] as I have loved you [John 13:34; Galatians 5:22]." The one who has ears, let him hear.
Way to misquote and take out of context Deuteronomy 23:6, which does not say what you claim it says and does not apply to that which you claim it applies. If your interpretation involves Jesus or the disciples nullifying the Law of God, then your interpretation is wrong.

Great quick lesson. Wish you would went ahead and gave a short lesson on the sabbath and kosher laws as well. Even though you recently did a wonderful job in the 2 part clean and unclean videos.
Thank you Professor Solberg for another concise video. Those in Torahism insisting that the law/instructions of Moses are still binding can't reconcile that with the Gospel of Christ, and hence teach a false gospel. Keep up your much needed work speaking out against this movement as you are one of very few. You have much support.
@@alexblack6634 - The Law of Christ is written on our hearts, and every born-again Christian knows that adultery is a sin without it having to be spelled out to them. The Holy Spirit convicts the Christian heart of sin. How many of today’s modern-day sins are not mentioned in the Torah, and if the law of Moses is still binding to you why don’t you stone trangressors of the law? Your Torah centric strawman arguments are tiresome. I have been a part of your cult and it’s devoid of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Why do even watch channels and videos refuting your heresy?
I'm part of a "hebrew roots" congregation, and I'm enjoying it because it is a congregation of ppl who are serious about bible study and discernment. I find other churches boring and rather lifeless. I rhink of keeping the O.T. laws not so much in terms of salvation, but more in terms of what they meant at the time. God was bringing rhe ppl into the land of the Canaanites and basically told them you're going to see these ppl doing this and that - i am going ro tell you what to do to stay safe, both physically and spiritually. Don't eat these following things, don't worship any other gods. I see it as honoring God's wisdom. And anyone who's seen the Paris Olympics Opening ceremony (or is like paying attention at all 😂) ooof, "Fear god and keep has commandments" may be a way of keeping yourself in the headspace for discernment necessary for today.
Thanks for posting this and addressing this topic. We recently celebrated Sukkot with a group considered Torah observant. We learned a lot concerning the OT forsure but I did have to remind someone about Galations because of some comments concerning circumcision and participating in passover. After experiencing a conviction, we decided as a family stop doing pagan holidays and birthdays last year. As you stated we have freedom as Christians to observe God's feasts (as they all point to Christ) or to rest on a Sabbath but to operate like your in bondage to the law...gets dangerous it completely dismisses what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did for us.
As Paul preaches, let NO ONE judge you for keeping God's Commandments...and Paul's teachings can be beautifully summarized in the following verse: "Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, BUT WHAT MATTERS IS THE KEEPING OF THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD." 1 Corinthians 7:19
@@jeffholder8018 And this is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us. 24And the one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him.

Gal 2:20 we are raised from the dead into Christ , the Heavenly, Spiritual Adam Who is the progenitor of a whole new race... where our identity is in Him...our life is and (in) Him..
The "slippery slope" is just fear-mongering. Jesus clearly said to live on EVERY word that comes from the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4). And he warned against setting aside even the LEAST of God's commandments (Matthew 5:17-20). To "fulfill the Law" means to fully-preach it. In short, following the Gospel of Jesus IS following the Law of God/Law of Moses. And Paul said in numerous places that Torah defines sin, such as in Romans 2:13, 3:20, 7:7, and that we keep Torah (eg: Romans 3:31). Of course, the fact that most of the justification of rebellion comes from quoting Paul rather than Jesus proves that Paul is more important to Church doctrine than Jesus. Deuteronomy 13: You either keep God's Law or your are practicing idolatry. Deuteronomy 12:32: Do not add to God's commandments or take away from them. There are two types of commandments in God's Law: (1) How to love God. (2) How to love your neighbor. (1) Every sacrifice was still offered by the first century believers EXCEPT for the sin offering. Are you sure you aren't conflating other types of sacrifices with the sin offering? I have never heard anyone say that the SIN OFFERING would be offered once again. By the way, sin offerings are NOT necessary for the forgiveness of sins, as evidenced by not only the laws concerning the sin offering (flour is an acceptable offering), but also by the fact that numerous people (eg: King David and the many Jesus explicitly forgave) were forgiven without any sort of sin offering being given, among other things that imply or state that there will be forgiveness without ANY mention of a sin offering. (2) Might want to look up the word translated as "change" in Hebrews 7:12. The word translated as "change" actually means "transition". The Law is eternal (Psalm 119:160) and therefore cannot be changed. You also might want to look into the fact that King David also performed the priestly duties. And it's rather interesting that you would go this route rather than the much more biblically-grounded route of the fact that there is no Levitical priesthood in place AT ALL. Also, you should look into what the Law of God says is required to be in place to be able to legally offer ANY sacrifice. (3) So God removing the temple and the Levitical priesthood somehow makes Torah Observance incompatible with faith in Jesus? All that ACTUALLY means is that it is now sinful to offer any sort of sacrifice, since it now is impossible to be done within the system of the priesthood. Anyone who is ACTUALLY following Torah will NOT be offering any sacrifices because it is SINFUL to offer sacrifices apart from the system. (4) Remind me again, who's trying to sew the veil back together? All you're doing is showing your ignorance of Torah. If God does everything in accordance with Torah (which he does), then when he wants to put a new system in place, he has to remove the old system, so that it now becomes SINFUL to do things that require the old system to be in place. (4.5) Here is where you prove that you and others like you are the ones that Peter is warning against in 2 Peter 3:16. Paul is not against circumcision. He's against using circumcision as a means of salvation. Besides, how can Paul saw that we uphold the Law (Romans 3:31), that the Law defines sin (Romans 3:20, 7:7), and that we slaves to righteousness (Romans 6:18) which is defined as obedience to the Law (Romans 2:13)? Also, where does the Law say that a man is required to circumcise himself? Good luck trying to find that command, because it's not there. And why did Paul circumcise Timothy after seemingly stating that it alienates us from Jesus, and implying that it is unforgiveable? If Paul (or even Jesus or anyone else) is speaking against something that APPEARS to be contrary to Torah, it is either (a) they are speaking against Torah and are false teachers, or (b) they are speaking against a misinterpretation of Torah and speaking against HUMAN RULES. And by the way, why does James call the Law "the Law of Liberty" (James 1:25, 2:12)? Good luck resolving that apparent contradiction.
Thank you, Timothy! 1. Sorry, I'm not clear on which part of point #1 you disagree with. Do you disagree that, under the Law of Moses, annual animal sacrifices were required of Israel for the atonement of sin? Or that animal sacrifices are no longer required for the atonement of sin? If you affirm both statements, then you and I agree that the Law of Moses is no longer in effect. 2. The word "change" in Hebrews 7:12 is μετατιθεμένης, which comes from μετατίθημι. which can mean (1.) to put in another place, transfer, (2.) to change or alter, (3.) to change one's mind, turn away, desert. The question then becomes, which of these possible meanings is intended in verse 12 based on the context? And even if we use the definition of "transfer," it still results in a net change to what was commanded in the law of Moses. 3. Yes exactly! It is now impossible to keep the law of Moses and follow Jesus at the same time. That's the whole point of this video. 4. Yes exactly! You stated it beautifully. When God "wants to put a new system in place, he has to remove the old system, so that it now becomes SINFUL to do things that require the old system to be in place." This is why we can't keep the law of Moses and follow Jesus at the same time. 4.5. Sorry, I'm not clear on which part of point #4.5 you disagree with. Do you disagree that, under the Law of Moses, circumcision was required of all males? Or that physical circumcision is no longer required? If you disagree that circumcision is no longer required, you will be hard-pressed to explain Galatians 2:1-10 where Titus was not required to be circumcised. If you affirm both statements, then you and I agree that the Law of Moses is no longer in effect. Blessings, Rob
@@TheBiblicalRoots 1. It was NEVER the case that sacrifices atoned for sin. Even if that WAS the case, Jesus being the sin offering does not nullify God's Law, but is done in accordance with God's Law. There would still a sin offering as the Law requires, but what is offered has changed. If God's Law no longer applies, then Jesus died for NOTHING. I'm sure you're familiar with what Paul said about No Law = No Sin. 2. If there was a change in God's Law, then that would (a) prove Psalm 119 false, and (b) prove Deuteronomy 12:32 and Deuteronomy 13 false. Or Deuteronomy 12-13 would prove Hebrews 7 false. Deuteronomy 12:32 prohibits any sort of change in the Law from happening, and Deuteronomy 13 defines rejecting/ignoring/changing the Law as idolatry. The transfer cannot in any way change the Law. 3. You just proved that you do not understand Torah. Or the implications of the Deuteronomy 13 Test. 4. How does not offering sacrifices because the priesthood is no longer in place, which is OBEDIENCE to what the Law requires, in any way prove that Torah observance is mutually exclusive to following Jesus, who told us to obey the Law of God? You are OBEYING the sacrificial laws in Torah without even realizing it! 4.5. Torah does NOT have any command requiring a man to circumcise himself (unless he wants to eat the Passover). The command is to circumcise every male child born to you on the 8th day. But it NEVER required any man to circumcise himself. Paul is NOT teaching against what Torah demands concerning circumcision. He's teaching against a HUMAN RULE concerning circumcision. The Law is still in effect, but because you don't know what it requires (or in this case, does NOT require), you interpret Paul in a way that makes him a false teacher. By the way, Paul encouraged believers to eat the Passover meal.
@@TimothyChapman Thanks, Timothy! 1. "For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by the life" (Lev 17:11). 2. False. 3. False. 4. We either have a Levitical priesthood or we don't. We can't have a Levitical priesthood _and_ all be priests at the same time. 4.5. I never said anything about a man circumcising himself. The law is _not_ still in effect because it required circumcision. And if you disagree that circumcision is no longer required, you will be hard-pressed to explain Galatians 2:1-10 where Titus was not required to be circumcised. Shalom! Rob
@@TheBiblicalRoots 1. The word translated as "atonement" is "kapar", which means "to cover". The word "atonement" is purely English in both origin and concept. 2. Truth. Nobody can change the Law of God because of Deuteronomy 12:32 and Deuteronomy 13. If anyone (including Jesus) tries to do that, then that person is a false teacher. If anyone teaches others to not keep the Law, then according to Deuteronomy 13, they are teaching people to follow another god. 3. So you admit that you fully-understand that the Deuteronomy 13 Test would prove that Jesus and Paul are false teachers worthy of the death penalty had they been teaching what you claim they are teaching. 4. From 30 AD (death & resurrection of Jesus) to 70 AD (the disbandment of the Levitical priesthood), we had both the Levitical priests and the Body of the Messiah as priests. Oops! 4.5. Then why did Jesus, Paul, and the other disciples tell us to obey the Law? Because it is still in effect. No Law = No Sin. And I already refuted you on the requirement of circumcision. I don't have to explain Paul not doing something that the Law does NOT require. You however, will be hard-pressed to explain Acts 16:1-3, where Paul, according to your teachings, forced Timothy to be alienated from Jesus by circumcising him.
@@TimothyChapman Hi, Timothy! 1. Atonement is a very Hebrew concept. It's the reason God requires blood sacrifices on the altar in the law of Moses. 2. Technically, the law of Moses did not change. It came to an end. Which is why we can now have a high priest from the tribe of Judah, rather than Levi. 3. See #2. Also, if Jesus had said anything that the Jewish religious leaders felt violated the Deuteronomy 13 test for a false prophet, they certainly would've mentioned it! But they never did. 4. Yes, this is called a liminal state; one system was winding down while the other was starting up. But from the moment of Jesus's resurrection, the New Covenant had begun, and the temple services were no longer required, even though they were still being carried out. 5. Paul and the other disciples were free to do any sort of Mosaic ritual they wanted because those things were never forbidden or prohibited. For followers of Jesus, they are permitted but not required. (See 1 Cor. 9:20-23) All glory to Jesus! "But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code" (Rom. 7:6). RLS
I would bet my left arm that you think YHWH will burn people forever. If you do, you do not need to be teaching anyone. To believe that tripe, Means you do not know who YHWH is. Please invite me to debate this stuff.....
I'm so thankful for your channel. I've come to be in fellowship with some Hebrew roots folk and I never would've understood it or known how to have these conversations if it weren't for your videos. Thanks so much 🙏🏼 - Most notably, I've been asked what other of the 10 commandments I'd be willing to compromise on since I don't keep a 7th day sabbath 😥
I am so glad you find our work helpful! What's interesting is that nine of the ten commandments are repeated, endorsed, and taught in the New Testament, but the keeping of the seventh day Sabbath is not. RLS
Hebrews 4 explains that Jesus is our Sabbath rest & that "today" (i.e. every day) is our "rest" from the works of the law. So it's not a matter of "compromise," it's a matter of "entering in" to the finished work of Jesus forever PTL 🙌
@@TheBiblicalRoots quote--- but the keeping of the seventh day Sabbath is not. ... unquote Tell me, when your kids disobey one rules of your house, which ones would you keep talking to your kids about? The ones they do keep, or the ones they DON:T keep??? 99.9 % of Jews kept the Sabbath!!! NO NEED to keep talking about that. Jesus talked about the ones they did NOT keep. What Commandments is this about? John 14:15 "If you love me, you'll keep my commandments." In other words, if you don't love me, you don't love God. John 14:16 says, Jesus will ask the Father and he will give us another Counselor to be with us forever when we obey God by loving others. He is the Spirit of truth. Keep only Nine?? Eight??? All ten??? how about this? John 15:10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and your joy may be full. Keep only Nine?? Eight??? All ten??? ----What is this verse aabout? Hebrews 4:9-11 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his.

And Jesus shall say unto them that followed the law of His father., "how dare you obey Him instead of the NEW Christian doctrine passed on through the infallible pastors. Away from me, for I never knew you. Dont you realise that the sacrafice of your lip service to me as Lord is better than obedience.
Hi, Craig! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6). RLS
So a brand new religion not found in scripture. Which prophet told you that God was going to start this new religion apart from what He had already said. If you believe that, then the Jesus you made up contradicts the rest of scripture. Im sorry, but that seems way more confusing to me. The logical flow of scripture seens to point to repentance and return to fhe ways of God. Every prophet seems to say the same. And the Messiah lives and teaches the same
AND- I am finding that asking the Hebrew roots believer certain questions, tells you even more about them. They are making claims that they are “keeping Torah“. So I’ve begun asking them questions directly from the Torah that they claim to keep. They downplay Christians who go to church on Sunday, and claim that they are “keeping Shabbat” while gathering Each Saturday. When I ask them about all the work that they do on Saturday in setting up tables and chairs, cooking lunch, cleaning pots and pans after lunch, sweeping in mopping floors after Shabbat and I mentioned that I believe that is classified as “work“, they don’t answer it. In other words while they say that they are keeping Shabbat, according to Torah, I really don’t believe that they are. And while claiming to eat “biblically clean“, they eat in restaurants that cook pork and shrimp on the same grill that their chicken was cooked on. And they purchase deli meat, such as beef and chicken, but it is cut with the same meat cutter/slicer that the ham is cut on. These are legitimate questions. When I read the Torah, it looks pretty strict about contamination. The big question is this. If you are really claiming to keep Torah, ARE YOU REALLY???
For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Matthew 25:35-46 If you're going to critique Torah observant people, then it's fair to critique Christians. With how many professing Christians there are in the US why is there poverty in the US? Also there would be no need for the foster care system if every professing Christian family adopted one child.
@@HannahSkyLaneJesus said that the poor will always be with us. Much of poverty is a mindset, but not of course ALL. Anyone professing to walk with Jesus should help the poor. So many people choose to stay in their situation because the American government takes care of them. In Matthew 7:6 Jesus says to not throw your pearls before swine.
@@Gigi2four my point is why do Christians have the right to tare down and criticize people who want to keep the Torah, when Christianity is lacking as a whole in what Jesus told them to do. Focus on yourself.
@@tbishop4961 No. He’s only logically questioning their claim that they follow the Torah, and yet they don’t. It’s a legitimate question to inquire why some group of people claim to be living X yet all they do is Y.
I love your videos. They're insightful. I'm curious how you'd address some Torahists who say the commandments given to the Levite priesthood were not part of the Sinai covenant. They say its because the non-Levites weren't allowed to be priests. Atonement was optional. Because of that, the law is still valid. I know Heb. 7 refutes their theology but i want to conclusively refute it using only the Tanakh.
@glenwillson5073 Sabbath long preceeded "Moses." God began His Sabbath rest on Day 7 & has been resting ever since. See Hebrews 4 to understand why every day is Sabbath for those who believe.
@@kimartist 《Sabbath long preceeded "Moses." God began His Sabbath rest on Day 7 & has been resting ever since. See Hebrews 4 to understand why every day is Sabbath for those who believe.》 You say, "God *began* His Sabbath rest on Day 7" God says, "he *rested* on the seventh day" (Genesis 2:2) God says, "he *had rested* from all his work" (Genesis 2:3) You say, God "has been resting ever since" God says, "My Father works hitherto, and I work" (John 5:17) If you are teaching people to break God's laws, you are a believer of someone but it's certainly not God. Even the very title of this video is a deception & a lie. "Why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of Moses at the same time" The law of Moses is the law of God. It's the law God gave to Moses. It's not & never was Moses's law. Therefore an honest title of this video would be; "Why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of God at the same time" So it's a choice of follow Jesus or follow God is it? I have some bad news for you. When Jesus returns he intends to enforce, what you deceptively call, the "law of Moses". Now, why would that be do you suppose? Zechariah 14: 16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. 17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. 18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. 19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
@Vincent-gc3cuJesus addressed the Sabbath, he taught us when to worship, how and why. He talked about how the preists profaned the Sabbath and how he was Lord of it. He also said, true worshipers would worship in spirit and truth. Not law. Read Galatians 5 :18 and 23. He said we are the temple! Where 2 or more are gathered in his name he is in the midst. Everyday is the Sabbath as in everyday we keep holy, not just on Saturday. Not only did Jesus fulfill the law, he said we fulfill all of it when we love each other. Again, see galations and almost the whole book of romans. Love is the fulfillment of the law. But should only be done an Saturday, lol. Just kidding. If you only worship on Saturday, what do you do the other 6 days?
#2 You are not making any sense..... The Bible has boundaries and you are trampling all over them. Jesus backed up His Father - matt 5: 18-19. He is telling you to embrace the Law whuch is what he did. That means all who followed must do the same. So all interoretstion must line up Your doctrine calls Jesus a liar
God is not finishd with the Jews. Rev. 11. There will be a 3 Tempel for the Jews. The last Beast must be sit in these 3 Tempel and say that he is God...
Malachi 3:6 For I am the Lord, I change not; Anyone claiming God changes is calling God a liar. What does Jesus have to say about the law? Matthew 5:17-19 Think not that I am come to destroy the law,or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, til all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. I will believe Jesus, not man.
Yep we are to follow the law but it does not save us. If we have trouble following it it is about not loving God enough. God said in Isiah if you love me you will obey me. Jesus said if you love me you will follow my commandments
The prophets speak in parables but God taught Moses to speak his laws clearly. Pastors who hate Moses love parables because they can confuse the people. Jesus came to end human judgement.
Our righteousness is like filthy rags Isaiah64:6. Our obedience to God's Holy Law, including the 7th day Sabbath, is just the result of God's righteousness in us.
Thanks so much Dr Solberg for excellent teaching video. This is so biblically and theologically sound and scriptural, I'm sending it to my bible study student's. You are a great help to the body of Christ. God bless you and your ministry.
I have a question for you: If someone observes the law, are they working for their salvation, yes or no? If yes, please explain why you came to that conclusion?
@@sundownsam3369 He can't "yes" or "no" this question. WHO is the "someone" you're talking about? Jew or Gentile? HOW do you propose Jew "observe" law with no extant Temple? And HOW do you propose Gentiles "observe" law in a Temple not made with human hands but out of living stones made out of people? Literally people!
You just said paul said that paul calls the law slavery. That is blashphemy. Paul is referring that the law without Jesus does nothing Its jesus and rhe law.
If we reread Exodus 26:31-33 and bypass the physical attributes of the Most Holy Place, and understand that people did not obtain the sciences we have now, it’s clear that based on the description, God is talking about the human heart.
Yes you can follow the grace of Calvary and Torah too. In fact the terms of the renewed covenant is, " I will write My Torah ( which is the law ) on your heart." Jeremiah 31:31-34 Isaiah 8:20 says it best. " To the law ( Torah ) and the testimony of it ( Messiah) if they speak not according to this, there is NO LIGHT in them." Grace should be combined with Torah. Jesus kept the Torah and so did Paul. Don't we realize that sin is transgression of Torah? 1John 3:4. Can we continue to sin after receiving grace from Calvary? Hebrews 10:26-29 says we cant. This is why David penned the words of Psalms 119:11. " Thy word/Torah have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee." Torah is instruction on how to live a Holy lifestyle. It's how YHVH desires us to worship Him. It's all about love and obedience. " If you love Me, keep My commandments". Again 1 John 5:3. He who says they love me and keeps not My commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him. 1John 2:4 Again, Jesus kept His Father's Torah and 1John 2:6 says" He that says he remains in Him ought himself to walk as He ( Jesus ) walked." Torah is not a bad word. The law is not a bad word. It's how YHVH GOD desires worship. Obedience in love to Torah after salvation is our worship to YHVH and His Son for His salvation. We don't keep Torah to earn salvation. We keep Torah from the heart AFTER salvation because it's what YHVH asks us to do. " For this is love that you keep My commandments." 1John 5:3 For the gentile? Absolutely says Paul in Romans 2:12-16. Paul teaches us in Hebrews that there was a CHANGE in the law when Calvary happened. The sacrifice changed. The circumcision changed. The High Priesthood changed. But Torah never disappeared for the Jew or gentile. Jesus tells us this in Matthew 5:17-19 Christians must return to the Torah that they think has passed with Calvary. Last time I looked heaven and earth is still here. We don't keep Torah to earn anything. We keep Torah because it's written on our hearts out of love from what was accomplished at Calvary.
Jesus never came to abolish the Law or the Prophets but to fufill it instead. You trying to do things your own way and not Gods way. Have you forgotten what happens to ppl in the bible that do what they want and not what God says. Your making his word null if your saying you dont have to follow what God says. And your a false prophet leading ppl in the opposite direction.
Hi, Cos! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6). Shalom, RLS
Dang, you must always hang out with the wrong group of Hebrew roots/Torah observant people! Anyone on the RIGHT track KNOWS that observing Torah is NOT to earn salvation or God's approval in any way, shape, or form. What can we do to earn more of His love????? NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!! Torah is God's Instructions to His Family of how His Family should act AFTER they have become part of His Family by their faith in Him. For example: Your children do not earn their place in your family by obeying household rules; nor do they get kicked out of the family by not obeying household rules. The neighbor kids cannot earn a place in your family by obeying your family's household rules. The parents do not hold their infant children responsible for the household rules at that stage, but teach them as the children grow. Here's another example. If Johnny joined the Boy Scouts, he can earn merit badges as he completes the activities required. If his buddy decided to join Johnny in doing those activities, he would learn a lot of skills. But at the end of the day, or at the next Scout meeting, Johnny's buddy would not receive any merit badges. Because he never took the oath to join the Scouts to begin with! Torah is NOT for unbelievers. Torah is NOT a way to enter God's Kingdom. The apostle John tells us if we are not follow God's commands, we do not love Him. What are His commands? Are they now different from Torah? Do you not know how to differentiate which Mitzvah of Torah is applicable to which group of people? [1Jo 2:3-6 CSB] 3 This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his *commands.* 4 The one who says, "I have come to know him," and yet doesn't keep his commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God is made complete. This is how *we* know we are in him: 6 The one who says he remains in him should walk *just as he walked.* How did Yeshua "walk?" (Surely you know "walk" is the Biblical term for carrying out God's Instructions....?) Yeshua could not have been the promised Messiah if He had broken Torah. Yeshua kept Torah. And surely you understand the concept that "keeping or guarding" Torah is not exactly the same as "doing" Torah...? SH.M.R (Hebrew root "shamar" for keeping/guarding) Torah does not mean every person has to do every thing, but honoring/esteeming/respecting Torah and allowing those a particular command is applicable to to do that command. What did Yeshua Himself say? [Jhn 14:15 ESV] 15 "If you love me, you will keep my commandments. Again, What are His commandments? Are they now different from Torah? I have been following/involved in "Hebrew Roots" since 2014 when God led me to a pastor that could connect the dots between the Hebrew Scriptures and the Apostolic Scriptures. After listening to many sessions, I began to see how it all fit together. I was raised in the church and thoroughly know Scriptures. I investigate both sides of an issue to see which lines up with the Word of God more. No one that I rely on in this arena teaches remotely what you accuse Hebrew Roots/Torah observant people of. I guess you've gotten in with the wrong crowd. 😆🙃😉🤣
Legislate - You said that many of us try to shove our beliefs on others. Hogwash Maybe some but they would be out of line The Law speaks for itself because it leaves no room for error. The law divides good and evil snd eliminstes division Evangejicalism pronmotes division. Perspective is everything I would think that your side is so hell bent on being rebellious that you perceive things being shoved down your throat.
Disproving your first point disproves them all. 1) Atonement- YOU SAID: God requires burnt offerings and sacrifices. GOD SAYS in - (Jeremiah7:21-27) 1Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh. 22(((For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:)))23But this thing commanded I them, saying, ((Obey my voice, and I will be your God,))and ye shall be my people: and ((walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you,)) that it may be well unto you. 24But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, ((but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.)) 25Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them: 26Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers. 27Therefore ((thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee:))thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee. (((Yashawn))) God disagrees with you: God proclaims that it was not him that commanded the Israelites to walk in the ways of sacrifice in the day that he led them out of Egypt - Which would be in the times of Exodus,and Leviticus. Now lets see what king david has to say pertaining to this- ((Psalms 40:6-10))- king david (6Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.) 7Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, 8I delight to do thy will, O my God:( yea, thy law is within my heart.) 9I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest. 10 (I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation:) I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation. (Yashawn) We can see the King David also knew that God did not require sacrifice, he even proclaimed it to the congregation, he says the law of God is within his heart And then declared the true ways of Salvation pertaining to God- Which is no sacrifice. (((Paul took this very text and twisted it back into a blood sacrifice text))- proof. ((Hebrews 10:5-7)) paul 5Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 6In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. 7Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. ((Yashawn)) Here we can literally see Paul taking a text that is approved by God ,and then paul changed it to mean the opposite. You are not allowed to change the words of God, especially when it renders a new context. ((Yashawn)) God never commanded the ways of sacrifice, so he never commanded the way of Christianity- why? because sacrifice is the backbone of Christianity. If I need to give more proof to anybody - I'm more than happy to, there is plenty more.
Rob, as you already know that I follow all of your presentations, from just the topic alone I’m responding There’s no such thing as the gospel of Jesus and the Law of Moses It was Jesus who GAVE the Law It was Jesus who ESTABLISHED the Law It was Jesus who showed us how to KEEP the Law And it was Jesus who DECIDED the or it was his idea, there’s only one way of salvation. David said : I DELIGHT TO DO THY LAW O GOD (not Moses) and David was called the man after God’s own heart, was Paul more righteous than David? They are the same in the sight of God and Paul cannot speak against what David have said. The Law is a guideline in how Jesus wants us to live Seth, Enoch, Noah, Elijah, Elisha and Moses kept the LAW (the Commandments) and they were all found righteous in the sight of God so why can’t we keep the Law also and be righteous in God sight. The Law is HOLY The Law is JUST The Law is GOOD The Law is DELIGHTFUL Moses couldn’t create anything HOLY JUST GOOD and DELIGHTFUL? So it cannot be the Law of Moses Psalm 19:7-14 The Law of the LORD (not Moses) is PERFECT The Commandments of the LORD is PURE. Converting the souls and Enlightening the eyes, respectively. Psalm 119: 105 “ THY WORD (God’s Word not Moses) IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET AND A LIGHT UNTO MY PATH”. Compare that with Proverbs 6:23 “FOR THE COMMANDMENT IS A LAMP AND THE LAW IS LIGHT. For not to keep God Commandments and Law is to walk in darkness. Hear what Isaiah 8:16 says “BIND UP THE TESTIMONY, SEAL THE LAW AMONG MY DISCIPLES. ( New Testament or Covenant) Same chapter vs 20 “ TO THE LAW AND THE TESTIMONY IF THEY SPEAK NOT ACCORDING TO THIS WORD, IT IS BECAUSE THERE IS NO LIGHT IN THEM Hebrew 4:1-2 THE GOSPEL IS PREACH UNTO AS US AS WELL AS UNTO THEM. There is only ONE GOSPEL ONE LAW ONE BAPTISM ONE HOD AND FATHER OF ALL Why is something so LOVELY and so BEAUTIFUL is not for Christians?
You can't follow both. That's for sure. Most of the Biblical contradictions disappear if you treat the Old Testament and the New Testament as the basis of two different. (And somewhat opposing) religion.
When you start out with the erroneous premise that "Hebrew roots/Torah observant" folks think we are SAVED by the Good Works (Torah, mitzvot, Eph 2:10), then you are definitely going to end up in the wrong place. Thanks for baking us all in the same big pie! ()
Gentle man stop mixing up Truth in the bible, there's Two law in the bible Moses Law and Gods Law, Jesus is God,N God is Sprite fulfilling the plan of salvation in humanity, pastor not Moses, or Jesus or Paul or John it's Gods business..c'mon blind cannot lead the blind🤦🧐🧐🧐🧐
God never made a any Covenant with Gentiles. The new Covenant is in Jesus's blood as He said in the last supper. The conditions to fulfill this Covenant is Christ going to the cross . This wss between Jesus and the Father. Praise God!
1. In order for all your views to work, you have to teach replacement, theology which you're doing. Interesting you had to skip a verse when speaking about the Samaritan woman. You skipped verse 22 in john 4 Ye worship, ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. You formed an entire view solely from the gentile perspective. 2 question: Have you spent any significant time studying under a remnant jew spoken of in Romans 11 part of the root as they are called. Or have you only studied under gentiles from the branch as we are called?
Wow..I don't know where to start. This is messed up in so many ways. Major note tho..funny you mentioned the sacrifices, temple and priests and yet haven't thought about the irony. Yeshua said not one jot or tiddle shall pass from the Law till all is accomplished (which it hasn't) and yet those three things are no longer around today. Hmm..makes you wonder if those three things were ever commanded to begin with. The priesthood added a lot to Torah especially in Babylon captivity and if it doesn't match YHWH's character it should be questioned. Especially since many prophets mentioned sacrifices never being commanded.. Jer 7:22-23 for example. Two temples destroyed and priests and scribes with their pride. Look up Jer 8:8 "and the lying pen of the scribes". If you think the bible is the definitive Word of YHWH maybe you should look into it more often and ask "why?" Shalom
That IS the new covenant. The establishment of a better MINISTRY of God's Law. The levitical priesthood and the physical requirement of circumcision has faded away. His commandments remain. As it is written; "CIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING AND UNCIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING, BUT WHAT MATTERS IS KEEPING THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD" -1 Corinthians 7:19
This is brilliant. Great points. It does however leave the question of exactly what we ARE to do with the law of Moses, not least given that it is part of our Scriptures. Does "Moses" have now only a pedagogical role to lead us to Chirst, or is there also a greater sense in which following Christ involves keeping the law in the way JESUS kept it?
It’s not that complicated. I strive to study Torah and don’t worry about Christianity. Christmas and Easter are not biblical and rooted in paganism… Torah was YHWH’s instruction… “Jesus” = Torah (Freedom)… HalleluYah!
Great teaching. Thank you. There are 613 Laws in the Mishnah for Tulmadic reasons. That said, if you read through all of them, you might find the answer is in the middle. The ceremonial laws seem to be replaced by the grace of Christ, the cleanliness laws protected Israel in a time absent antibiotics, and the remainder seem to lay a nice ground work for loving God and your neighbor. “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Tim 3:16-17
Even Bart Ehrman distinguishes the correct gospel, the one that Jesus preached himself about the kingdom of God coming on earth. The gospel about Jesus as a person isn't really what Jesus preached. Jesus, clearly talked about Coming kingdom here on earth, and that He would be the future king of it
I would like to hear your opinion - what exactly is the "Law of Moses" - i.e what laws are included and what are not, and most importantly what is the reason for that statement. I have personally found that there are some important verses that need to be correlated between Gal 3 and Ex 24. There were laws given that were part of the covenant, the people heard these accepted them , then the book of the covenant was sealed, blood was sprinkled and the covenant confirming meal was eaten, that basically seals that agreement. AFTER this, God calls Moses up on the mountain again and gives him the tablets and "the Law" and the commandments to "TEACH THEM". This cannot be part of the covenant, since it cannot be added to as Paul explains in Gal 3. This is the school master part that we are no longer under - and it agrees well with the points you raised here in this vid. However the feasts, Sabbath, 10 commandments have nothing to do with re-conciliation, those are instructions in righteousness, if you chuck these out as part of Moses law, or of ceremonial stuff, you are basically sinning.
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto THEM: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. HEB 4:2 WHO IS THEM?????
How about Christianity has been so dumded down without much meaning other than getting saved. Torah study has far more meaning about what it means to live. Torah is not in any meaningful part of Christian faith. Thats why serious Jesus followers are interested in the Jewish Messiah.
Hi, while i agree with what is taught in the video, and it is a fact that the levite priesthood ended, I read today Numbers 25:13 God promises, Pinehas, the grandson of Aaron, that his decendants will have the priesthood eternally/perpetually (Strong H5769 - עוֹלָם עוֹלָם - `olam) for his zeal. How can that be reconciled? Maybe with the priesthood of each christian and its almost certain that some of his decendands became christians? Also he didnt get promised the high priesthood for eternity. Or maybe there is a priest of the same name the son of Eli who brougth wrong fire on the altar, but it isnt explicitly said that this ends the levite priesthood, so personally i would say the first explanation is the better one, as the perpetual priesthood of Pinehas decendands isnt bound to a condition in this passage. 10 The Lord said to Moses, 11 “Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites. Since he was as zealous for my honor among them as I am, I did not put an end to them in my zeal. 12 Therefore tell him I am making my covenant of peace with him. 13 He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites.”(NKJV)
You may want to rethink what you have concluded. Zachariah 14 Isaiah 66 Ezekiel 46:12 (KJV) Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily unto the LORD, [one] shall then open him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then he shall go forth; and after his going forth [one] shall shut the gate. Unless you can show where GOD has changed HIS mind . And now Israel is not HIS Holy Land . Where all Nations will come up and worship, On the feast of Tabernacles and on the Sabbath.
You can try to 're-imagine' the Word of the Hebrew Messiah of Israel, but you cannot divorce yourself from the Heart and Soul of The Scriptures and remain in covenant. There is Echad (One) Bride, and she looks like Israel. Not the nation state of today, but the Israel which YHWH has defined. The covenant promises and requirements remain upon the Seed (singular) of Abraham. The Way has not changed, the Truth has not changed and the Life has not changed. The Way of Truth in Life was, is and is to be Trusting/Faithful Obedience, even unto death. To 'mimic', emulate or 'clone' our Glorious King Yahshua in as many ways as possible, trusting that His Word stands Forever as The Father has promised. If we cannot count on His Word, then there is NO TRUTH at all. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with יהוה, and the Word was יהוה. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Matt 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of יהוה. The tares are sown by the enemy, which the vast majority of people accept readily. Not because it aligns with every Word of YHWH, but because they WANT these 'myths' to be true in their hearts. The same hearts which they like to say 'god knows my heart' - Yes He Does! Matt 23:1 Then spake Yahushua to the multitude, and to his disciples, 2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: 3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. Verse 3 above = Hear and Obey (Sh'mah) Moses (Torah). There is no ambiguity here, other than that which is sown in the stony hearts of men. He would not and could not command to Obey Moshe in one breath and then say, according to 'christianity', that Moshe has been done away with. What kind of heart does our Father desire to give us? An obedient heart, one which Has His Word (Torah) written on it, thus making us to Walk in His Way of Truth in Life. Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith יהוה, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohim, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know יהוה: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith יהוה; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. The time of refining is just ahead, and many blind/closed eyes will be opened. It will be accomplished in His timing and to His Glory!
We don't follow the 603 laws of Moses but we follow the 10 commandments which were written by God hand on the tablets and christ teachings. In Matthew 5:19 after teaching the 10 commandments Jesus said "whosoever, therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in relation to the kingdom of heavens. But whosoever does them and teaches them will be called great in relation to the kingdom of heaven" In colossians 2: 16 the religious festivals, ceremonies and sabbaths(different from the 10 commandment weekly sabbath) were nailed to the cross. The sabbath's referred here are ceremonies that used to last 7 consecutive days and included sacrifices of animals. There are 7 of this kind of sabbath festivals in total throughtout the year. Paul is saying this sabbaths are no longer needed because jesus was the sacrificial lamb on the cross. But the weekly seventy day sabbath is still required. In fact when Paul is writing this letter it to the church and during this period the church kept the 7th day sabbath. The seventh day sabbath didn't get changed by the church until in the 4th century by the council of leodocia centuries after Paul was already dead.
Hi, I am sure this have been mentioned before BUT to the point of about the priesthood that in 1 Peter we are all called to be a royal priesthood, this isn’t new to the New Testament. God called the children in Exodus his kingdom of priest and a holy nation IF they obey His words. And this was while there was a levitical priesthood. “And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”” Exodus 19:6 NKJV
None of us can keep all of the commandments. If we could then Christ didn't need to die for our sins. But those that make the effort will be welcomed into the kingdom of Heaven. It's those present day christians that say the law is done away with that wont be in the kingdom. And the ones that teach that some of the commandments have been removed or no longer need to be followed that will be the least in the kingdom.
Number one thing to remember... IT is The Gospel of The Kingdom of GOD... "...Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come..."(Words in Red) The Witness... says Both are needed... "...Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Yehoshua H3091 / G2424(Jesus).
Completely true... The gospel of the kingdom... And his comandments(torah)
God Bless you. You are doing The Lord’s work. ❤
Spot on Brother! Thanks for all you do for grace and freedom in Christ.
Great video as always Professor Solberg. Keep doing God's work.
I have a Facebook friend who constantly posts pro-Torah things, and especially things by Skip Moen... anyway, it's VERY DIFFICULT to talk about how the Law of Moses has been fulfilled, and that we're no longer under it, without coming across as, or being accused of, being anti-Torah or anti-nomian...
Yes, it is! Unfortunately, many "Torah observant" Christians are unwilling or unable to take a proper, balanced view of Scripture and instead paint everything in black and white. We've got a 1-minute video coming out this week that addresses that very issue.

Just read st Luke cpt 24 cpt. V44
Martin Luther bought the Blble to the masses translating it into German. Luther celebrated Christmas and Easter that's all I need to know. Luther had much to say about Jews as well.
I truly love your channel and have learned a lot. I have a very close family member who feels that the moral laws were never replaced by Jesus. Which in a way is true. They feel that the lessons and Galatians doesn’t count towards the moral laws from the Torah and therefore we should still have the Saturday Sabbath, stay away from pork and shrimp etc…, and that we need to continue to practice The Feasts and Festivals. They follow Armstrongism. What do I say to them?
Imagine Jesus celebrating the feast of saturnalia, calling it his birthday, and expecting God to be okay with it!
Complete with the tree, mistletoe, chestnuts etc.
Roman catholic church invented Xmas!
The Christians follow the Catholics
Israel tried to worship God with their own traditions and God judged them for it!
Idolatry is something Israel struggled with throughout their history.
So they understand and recognize idolatry.
The Jesus that mainstream Christianity sells through traditions like Xmas is rightly recognized as idolatry by Israel, so I don't blame them for not accepting this Jesus that mainstream Christianity is trying to sell.
So somehow Christians expect God to accept their offerings of idolatry, when He wouldn't accept it from the Israelites, ..... because your Catholic/Christian!???
@@qw2ps4 is this a response to my message? I don’t understand how it answers it. Please explain. Thank you,
Hi, Debby! Yes, the "laws" of God that define right and wrong were true long before the Law of Moses was given. So when God commands us not to murder today, it’s not because of the Ten Commandments. It’s because of His universal principle against murder. Long before God gave Israel the Law of Moses, Cain was judged for murdering his brother Abel (Gen 4:8-16). Same thing with sexual morality. Under the New Covenant, God doesn’t forbid adultery because of the Ten Commandments. Unfaithfulness and sexual immorality were wrong long before the Law of Moses, as we see, for example, in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah (Gen 18-19). Because mankind was made in God’s image, we have a “compass” of objective morality, so to speak, baked into our human DNA. And under the New Covenant, God's law is written on our hearts.
The food laws are not a matter of morality in and of themselves. They are a matter of ceremonial or ritual purity. It is, of course, immoral to disobey God about anything He commands us to do. But eating animals, for example, that were not ritually slaughtered is not a matter of morality on its own. God was just fine with sojourners and foreigners eating those things (Deut 14:21). They were only forbidden for the Israelites.
The Bible teaches that the Law of Moses was given at a specific time to specific people for a specific purpose. Much of what was given at Mount Sinai included God's universal "laws" about right and wrong and loving God, which were in effect long before the Law was given. But the purpose of the Law of Moses was not to set a new moral standard. It was to turn a ragtag group of recent slaves into the nation of Israel and set them apart for God. And embedded in those Mosaic laws of ceremony, ritual, distinction, and civil order were shadows that pointed to Christ. And it's _those_ laws that have been fulfilled by Christ and are no longer binding under the New Covenant.
I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6).
Blessings, Rob
@@TheBiblicalRoots Thank you for breaking it down for me! Truly appreciate it. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your day. 😊
@@TheBiblicalRootsoh I'm flabbergasted, I can't read past this idea you just passed by this woman. That God changed His mind on adultery, that on the new covenant He's alright with it.
Yikes!!!!!!
GOD HATES ADULTERY PERIOD!
You obviously missed the part where Jesus condemns the woman to stoning!
At that moment, she was on deaths door!
The caveat was there was no one there who could cast the 1st stone. They may have all been guilty of this.
Jesus knew something was up, because where was the man that she was caught with!
When they all left, He had to let her go because He knew it was Torah to let her go!
It says there HAS to be 2 or 3 witnesses! That's Torah!
So she got off, BUT He warned her to not sin again. In other words don't be in an adulterous relationship again!
Paul gives us a list of the sin that leads to death and adultery IS on it!
YOU HAD BETTER STOP WITH ERRONEOUS TEACHING, BECAUSE GOD HOLDS THOSE WHO TEACH FALSLY TO HIGHER STANDARDS!
Meaning you will answer for it!
Even though I disagree with Prof. Solberg, I value his thoughtful and well done teaching on "Torahism", there are some very bad teachings on how to be a "Torah Observant, Messianic Christian", and its very important to stay grounded in God's written word, study well, and be loving and kind to one another even when we disagree. And the Professor does this well.
I had a brief yet friendly Debate with a person on TikTok who was very heavily promoting Prof. Solberg's book, and speaking his critical views on "Messianic/Torah Observant Christianity", in fact I thought for a moment it was the Professor, But, I'm sure he has better things to do with his time?, :) the Antagonist ironically deleted his TikTok account after our discussion, which was very odd to me. but it happens.
I look forward to viewing his material and examining the scriptures to make sure that for myself as a "Messianic Christian Pastor" my understanding of all sides of the discussion are well informed, well thought out, and well compared to the written Scriptures, thank you Prof. Solberg for your timely, and thorough analysis of the Scriptures, and of the burgeoning Messianic/Torah Observant Christian Movement, even if i disagree with some of your conclusions. I believe you are a good and Godly man, teaching GOD's word with diligence.
SHALOMI MY HOMEY!

Jesus also said "If you love me, keep my commandments."
That includes the Sabbath commandment.
@statutesofthelord Sabbath was made for man. Th principle is that we cannot work 24/7 and should take rest. It doesn't need to be on a specific day. Jesus is our eternal rest from works.
@@OLskewL Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day [is] the sabbath of the LORD thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that [is] within thy gates:
11 For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Agree 100% Teaching against the law and not keeping it is pure rebellion to our Heavenly Father and rebellion is the same as witchcraft! (1 Samuel 15:23, Hebrews 3:15, 2 Thess 2:3)
Christ fulfilled the Law. We could not (and cannot). Recieve Jesus and His Gift IN FULL or you're telling God he did not Finish what He came to do. And if so, you will not enter in.
@@OLskewL are you saying that those who choose to obey God by keeping his Commandments and his laws cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven? 🤣 who do you think the dragon is coming to make war with in the end days?
“Then the dragon became furious with the woman and went off to make war on the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. And he stood on the sand of the sea.”
Revelation 12:17
Jesus did come to fulfill the law. As well as the prophets! So if he did away with the law, then Shirley, he did away with the profits as well. The word fulfill is pleroo in the Greek which means to fully do or fully preach. And we can do them.
“For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.”
1 John 5:3
Those who claim against keeping God‘s commandments or laws don’t realize that they are teaching to live a life of sin since sin is lawlessness.
“Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.”
1 John 3:4
So in other words, to repent from sin is to turn away from lawlessness and start keeping God‘s commandments.
Sorry for the misspelled words I am using voice text
Wow..lots of attacks here about the truth.
"Who is this that obscures my plans with words without knowledge?" 👈🧐 The Lord asked of Job & still has many applications today! HRM lack the grand plan. Mosaic covenant made completion of the Abrahamic covenant possible (father to many nations/Gentiles). Gentiles have NO PART in the Mosaic covenant & were never meant to! We Gentiles come into the Kingdom of heaven by faith just as Abraham did (Romans 4 : 16)
@godsgoodnessandgrace
Why do you say there are "lots of attacks here about rhe truth"?
If anyone attacks you for your beliefs, let them be attacked for theirs.
@DieBibelistGottesWort Yes, Jeremiah 31, the prophecy chapter on the renewed covenant. Just who are the 2 groups that are listed?
So, if all of the Law if Moses was discarded by Jesus, the Word (i.e., Torah, Prophets, Writings, Gospels, Epistles, and Revelation made flesh), then why did Jesus command people He healed to go and do what Moses commanded at the Temple?; why did Paul circumcize Timothy right after the Council at Jerusalem where they decided that new converts should be taught 4 basic commandments from the Torah?; why did Jesus never say one word against the Sabbath but instead reminded people that it's lawful to do good on the Sabbath? Let's say someone suddenly invents a teleportation device costing consumers only $1. Overnight all traffic laws would, indeed, be rendered meaningless ... but that wouldn't necessitate the abolishment of all laws governing other areas of life. Similarly, Jesus' self sacrifice on the cross did render all laws pertaining to the priesthood and animal sacrifice at the Temple obsolete, but that doesn't mean that all laws were so rendered. Indeed, in Hebrews 4 we read about the ongoing necessity of Sabbath-observance, not for salvation but, yes, for both our good and for obedience's sake (i.e., obeying God's behavioral do's and don'ts from a heart of love and humility is always valid, which is why, when Jesus explained who will enter and who will not enter His kingdom, He gave nothing more and nothing less than lists of behaviors, something that the Parable of the Talents also implies). Indeed, the last few chapters of Acts are all about Paul standing up against "false" accusations that, in teaching about Christ, he was simultaneously preaching against the Law. Paul's own behavior showed that he upheld the Law, even 14 years after his conversion and longer. In Matthew 5:17-23 Jesus upholds the Law, emphasizing how none of it shall pass away until after heaven and Earth pass away. I believe He was overstating His point in order to make it clear, just like when He told followers that, in order to follow Him, they would have to eat His flesh and drink His blood. Jesus knew full well that His death and Resurrection would render unnecessary part of the Torah commandments, but ... still, He wanted to make sure that no one would interpret future events as an indication that all of the Law had been done away with. Indeed, a better word selection for the Greek "pleroo" in Matthew 5:17, traditionally translated with the English word "fulfill," is "fully preach," "fully reveal," or "fully make known" ... translations that align much better with the context of the immediate verses, whereas "fulfill" does not fit. Consider: The Torah was the Word that Paul commanded the Bereans to test his teachings against. Lastly, I know that arguments from silence generally are not strong ones, however, it's simply true that in all of the places in the New Testament where one would expect to read words from Paul, Jesus, and others denouncing the Law and teaching a replacement doctrine, we simply do not find them. Again, Paul ended up in Rome ultimately to spread the Gospel, yes, but it all started with him having to stand before various rulers in defending his reputation as a Torah-observant Christian. A good video to watch is 119 Ministries' "Which Law, Paul?" on UA-cam or www.testeverything.net.
The Law never saved you. Abraham was made righteous by faith.
God's Word says ONLY those who OBEY Jesus will enter heaven.
Hebrews 10:26
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Matthew 19:
16- And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
17- And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Concerning the destruction of the temple 2000 years ago, he stated that why would God allow the destruction of the temple if the Mosaic law is still in effect? Will that was not the first time that the temple was destroyed. Solomon's Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians and Nebuchadnezzar and the temple was not rebuilt for over 70 years after that. And the Mosaic law was not done away with during that time.
What's interesting is that when that first temple was destroyed and Israel was sent into exile, God specifically told them their exile would last 70 years (Jer 25:9-13) and what they should do while in exile (Jer. 29). But that was not the case with the destruction of the second temple.

This is 1 reason (or 4.5?) why Jesus is a false messiah. The Torah of G-d is eternal, and is at the heart of the prophesied “new covenant.” Anyone teaching against it is false.
Amen! It all points to Jesus. Thank you
so if you have Yeshua, you just throw out the rest of the Bible? Thought He said if you love me keep my commandments?
Yes we can... The gospel is the real keeping of the torah.. in a renewed way. Walking in torah is what Jesus told us all the way... Its not complicated. The evangelical gospel is a romanic gospel. The new testament never told us to abolish torah, but to keep it in the right way.
Remember the torah were the books that Jesus and all the apostoles used, and the all the disciples for about 300 years.
All the time the new testament is talking about the scriptures its talking about the Torah...they didn't have new testament, neither they thought they would have one.
(Exod 31:13 [KJV])
Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it [is] a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that [ye] may know that I [am] the LORD that doth sanctify you.
Sacrifices do not or ever cleanse us from our sins. But it is the father that cleanses us from our sins.

"In the case of a will, it is necessary to prove the death of the one who made it, because a will is in force only when somebody has died; it never takes effect while the one who made it is living. This is why even the first covenant was not put into effect without blood."
~ Hebrews 9 : 16ff
agreed...abraham was made righteous by faith before he went up the mountain .
@@kimartist God made a convent with Abraham. But there was no death. The convent of circumcision.
This is very similar to seventh day adventism.
Our "Torah-observant" friends often put all their "eggs" in the basket of Matt. 5:17-20. And the problem is that the Bible consists of more than just those four verses. So, if we interpret Matt. 5:17-20 as teaching that the entire Law of Moses will be in effect until Heaven and Earth pass away, we then need to explain the 5 biblical examples in this video, which unequivocally show that the Mosaic commands regarding sin atonement, the priesthood, the temple, etc. have all changed in material ways.
RLS
made righteous before he went up the mountain. Abraham was made riteous by faith not sacrifice. Others on the planet did not sacrifice and were not Jewish..and went to heaven. Melkisidec was not Jewish.
How does the Sabbath appear in this video apart from it's 9 brethren?
@@biblethumper1624 Good point, thumper. Seems it's just the one commandment that God specifically said to "Remember" that most Christians are wanting to forget.
Yeah, and they usually concentrate on the 17-19 and don't think about what 20 actually means. "Unless your righteousness is GREATER than the legal experts and the pharisees you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." Well, I know that I could never be greater than the legal experts at keeping the law. So what, no one gets in? Only a select few? Then what was the point of Christ?

Thank you again for your teachings Brother Solberg. (I still need to catch your Part 2 interview w/M.Brown, I think his name is.)
Anyway, I've posted some of my short time experience w/the HRM folks a few times. I won't post the name of the man they were folllowing; although he does have a channel.
Or at least did the time I came upon him & to chat w/others you had to link in w/your email addy/phone# & give a real or made up moniker. It really bothered them, if when you logged on, you didn't sign in publicly or if you signed on as a "guest".
Anyway, when I came upon the channel, yes, as you've mentioned ... at 1st I was curious, etc. Oh I couldn't believe that I was celebrating Christmas, a "pagan" holiday to the HRM. I threw out all my Christmas decor & told my family that I no longer observed that particular day (the 25th).
One of the things that REALLY irked the "inner circle" of the group was that I was using Jesus' name instead of "Yeshua" or one of several names they used. I felt as I was pressured into changing my moniker from Jesus to Yeshua.
Also, at least 2 of them said Paul's letters gave them headaches, as well as calling "Christians" names or having a hatred of them.
Oh I could go on & on, but I'll just mention a couple other things.
They were really diligent about keeping the Sabbath or Shabat? (Friday nite to Saturday nite) & the Feasts, etc. So I stopped working on Sunday.
Although, where I live, there are no HRM temples or people that I could locate; so all of my "interaction" w/them was done online. And I believe a few other members only commun-
icated in this way, concerning their faith.
Concerning questions. Yes, if anyone came on to chat & asked SIMPLE questions, unless you almost immediately agreed w/the HRM teachings, you'ld be bombarded w/negative comments.
👑JESUS IS LORD!!!👑
Thank You, Prof. Solberg!
I notice an interesting trend in the comments section of this video. Those "Torah-observant" followers of Jesus who believe we're all supposed to keep the Mosaic rituals are bringing up lots of general arguments. But they're not responding to the 4.5 reasons presented in this video about why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus and the Law of Moses at the same time. I would love to hear someone who disagrees actually challenge the arguments presented here. Because if any of these five points is true, then the law of Moses is no longer in effect. -RLS
Did God says the Laws of Moses went away? When God says it then it's TRUE but when some man try to decide what God has already decided then you know its false and nothing but lies.
Have you forgotten that God last forever. So does his ways traditions his words and his laws. They have been here since time started and will stay for along as forever is. You would know that is you know how mighty and great God is. GOD IS BOUND BY NOTHING. GOD DOES WHAT HE PLEASES AND GOD IS RULER OF EVERYTHING. START TREATING GOD LIKE THE GOD HE IS DO WHAT HE SAYS NOT WHAT YOU THINK THATS THE REASON FOR EVERYTHING A LESSON. MAN HAS DONE WHAT THEY WANTED AND HAS PAID FOR IT DEARLY. BUT ITS CLEARLY SHOWS THAT IF YOU FOLLOW EVERYTHING ABOUT GOD THEN YOU ARE BLESSED AND WILL BE PROSPEROUS.
It's bad enough to say you know God but everything you said proved that you know nothing of who or what God is.
@@Cos..... if God is bound by nothing and can do as He pleases then that means He can also change the law. Hence the New Covenant
@@Gigi2four then why did jesus say he didnt come to do away with the Law or the prophets but to fufill it. So what makes you think he changes what he spoke to the whole world bc you know he spoke the commandments to the whole world and in the bible is doesn't say anything about God changing any of his commandments or ways.
The law you are really trying to justify breaking is the Sabbath.
Everything else is a smoke screen.
Good luck trying to con God you are right.
I'm going to be honest, Glen. I know I should be offended when someone bears false witness against me like this. But it cracks me up when people who don't know me personally and have never met me assign sinister motives to me, or make claims about what I think or believe. It's especially entertaining when the claims include no rebuttal to the points I made in the video. It reminds me of a child who has completely lost an argument and all they can do is shout in frustration, "Oh yeah? Well, you're stupid!"

@@TheBiblicalRoots
False witness?
So my claim that you don't keep the Sabbath is false is it?
Sinister motives?
If you are teaching people to break the Sabbath, you have the best of motives, but the one who has deceived you does not.
This man is a living example of someone who has fallen afoul of;
Isaiah 28:13 - But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Thank you I needed to read this.
This is who God is speaking to in Isaiah 28:
"Priests and prophets stagger from beer
and are befuddled with wine;
they reel from beer,
they stagger when seeing visions,
they stumble when rendering decisions.
All the tables are covered with vomit
and there is not a spot without filth."
~ Isaiah 28 : 7ff
@@kimartist Are you trying to say that Isaiah 28:9-13 only applies to official priests & prophets of God and not to anyone else?
So what, ordinary people are immune from Isaiah's instructions & warning as to how the scriptures must be studied? Really, that makes sense to you?
Maybe read the whole passage. It's about a drunk that can only understand nursery rhymes.
Here a little ,there is a little is a mocking poem in Hebrew. Don't believe me, look it up. And read the conclusion. They fall, are broken and snared.
Secondly, are you an Adventist?
@@vegacool1
I found one article about the poem. It didn't quote the whole poem but It was an anti-Isaiah article, so no bias in my favour there.
Yes, Isaiah does condemn the literal drunkenness of the priests & prophets, and I can believe that Isaiah may have subtly referenced this poem in order to rub the message in - maybe.
But if you think that's all there is to it, I don't think it's me that needs to read the whole passage (chapter 28).
Firstly, whats the problem with the drunkeness?
It results in these people being unable to correctly discern the truth - see v7.
Secondly, it's far more serious than just literal drunkenness.
They are also deliberate purveyors of lies & falsehood - see v15.
Thirdly, Isaiah referring to them as drunks is also condemning of their unclean spiritual state, they are not only physical drunkards they are drunkards spiritually.
This is what v8 means when it says; "For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean."
(The Bible also uses filthy clothes to indicate spiritual uncleanness.)
If you think v13 is only about literal drunkenness and nothing else, how do you explain v9&10?
V9 makes the point, that in order to learn knowledge & understand doctrine you have to be a spiritual adult, not a spiritual baby.
And v10 explains how you get this knowledge & understanding of doctrine.
It says; "FOR", in order to learn knowledge & doctrine, "... precept MUST be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:"
It's not possible to make v10 about drunkenness, it's clearly about how God/the Bible teaches knowledge & doctrine.
As v9 has already said, its about;
"Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?"
Also if v13 is drunkenness then v10 would logically also have to be drunkenness - and that makes zero sense.
Why?
Because that would mean, that in order to learn knowledge & understand doctrine (v9), God is recommending drunkenness as the best way to go (v10).
V13 follows on from v9&10 and states what happens if you don't follow the instructions already given in v9&10.
V13 is presented as the opposite of v10 and restates the instruction of v10.

WHAT is the gospel?
Great points raised in your video!
I always found it rather puzzling how many pastors and teachers try to balance Malachi chapter 3 with 2nd Corinthians chapter 9 to support their Tithing doctrines.
There seems to be a serious disconnect and inconsistency on the subject of giving in particular....and the congregation sits quietly while none raise a hand to question.
This cannot be serious...
The LORD rebuke you !
Explain this verse then:
Revelation 14:12
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Hello, Marcos! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6).

Thankful for your ministry and how you are being used. What commandments do we follow? What were the commandments since creation? How is the Law of Christ different? They always argue (If you love me, you will keep my commandments). I have had some HR say, they see the 10 commandments are forever, and are distinct from the Mosaic Laws. Some say we are not in the new covenant, yet still profess Jesus. The other part that could use clarity is so many believe they are from the 10 Lost Tribes or one of the 12. They don’t see the church as a distinct entity. Would love for you to delve into these topics more. 🙏🙌🏻
They don't understand that there are TWO covenants....
(Actually there are more - Noahidic, for example, which obviously doesn't apply to us now other than the promise implied by the rainbow.)
1) MOSAIC COVENANT which Jesus literally & legally fulfilled to make it possible for the:
2) ABRAHAMIC COVENANT to be fulfilled (father of many nations/Gentiles), i.e. now everyone (Jew & Gentile) has access to the Kingdom of heaven by faith (Romans 4 : 16)
Matthew 19:16-17

SHALOM !
@@OneSparrow-76 I think JeffSmith is talking about the “works of the law” as the yoke of slavery (Galatians 3:10). The works of the law are not the Law of Moses, but the law of men. But actually Gentiles who became Christians were instructed as to what portion of the Law they needed to keep along with the moral law, which is universal (Acts 15).
For historical purposes, we need to remember that at the beginning of the first century there was no Christian religion, but a branch of Judaism called “The Way” or Netzarim, which was made up of Jews and Gentiles (only later in Acts 11:26 they're called christians for the first time). Because of some Pharisee believers who wanted the Gentiles to keep the entire Torah, the apostles called the council of Jerusalem in Acts 15.
Returning to the present day, Jews from the Messianic Judaism keep their culture and the Torah, except for the laws of sacrifice (because Jesus has already completed in perfect form) and others that are fullfilled by the authorities.
The Body of Christ will be made up of Jewish believers and Gentile believers in harmony, loving one another as oneself. This is the Church.
May God bless you my friend!
@@JeffSmith-it4tm Amen, Jeff. Yeshua is God and He said:
"For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (Matthew 11:30)
I See it also this way:
Galatians 3:12
The law is not of faith
Romans 14:23
Everything that does not Proceed out of faith is sin
So anyone who Puts himself under law is sinning. There is no cherry picking allowed. All of the law and failure and sinning or grace and being dead to the law and dead to sin.
@schnittteisen The law (i.e. Mosaic covenant) was the framework by which Jesus' death became salvatory. It wasn't enough just to kill Jesus, there had to be a legal framework which made His expiation legally binding for all time. The problem the Torahists have is they are focusing on non-salvific portions of law (food & days), patting themselves on the back for it & missing the entire point of Jesus' death. They say their law-keeping activities aren't for salvation, but the ENTIRE POINT of the Mosaic covenant was FOR SALVATION. It's like missing the forest for the trees.
I would add a 6th stage- Apostate. Many end up rejecting parts of scripture, then the Apostle Paul and ultimately Jesus Christ Himself.
It is truly sad.
Who is Paul or any apostle except that they teach YESHUAS teachings and echo Moses, and the prophets through the eyes and teachings of YESHUA. No apostle had the right to author new teachings or scripture. Only echo what was laid and to testify to all they saw.
@@walkinginthegodgiven-jerem5502 Yep. Here we are at apostacy
@@ExNihiloComesNothing I’m so glad you agree. An apostle is a messenger of JESUS CHRISTS GOSPEL.
@@walkinginthegodgiven-jerem5502 Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ. 1 Corinthians 11:1
Paul was the original celebrity pastor!
The law was added to highlight humanity's need for a Savior and to make people aware of their sinfulness. Before the law, sin was still present in the world, but the law made it explicit and undeniable. Paul explains that the law was given so that "the trespass might increase" (Romans 5:20). This means that the law was designed to expose sin and make people conscious of their need for God's grace.
In Galatians, Paul further clarifies that "the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith" (Galatians 3:24-25). The law served as a temporary measure to guide people until the coming of Jesus, who fulfilled the law and offered a new way of righteousness through faith.
Additionally, the law was never intended to be a means of achieving righteousness. Paul states, "For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law" (Galatians 3:21). Instead, the law pointed out humanity's inability to achieve righteousness on their own, thereby pointing them to the need for a Savior.
In summary, the law was added to reveal sin, to act as a guardian until Christ, and to show the impossibility of achieving righteousness through human effort (Romans 3:20, Galatians 3:19).
Matthew 5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor [Leviticus 19:18] and hate your enemy [Deuteronomy 23:6].’ 44 "But I say to you [Hebrews 7:11-12], love your enemies [John 13:34; John 15:12; Ephesians 5:1-2; Galatians 5:22; 1 Corinthians 13], bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,"
John 13:34 "A new commandment I give to you [1 John 2:8; Hebrews 7:11-12; Hebrews 8; Luke 5:36-39; Psalm 78:2; Ezekiel 17:2; Matthew 13:3-23], that you love one another [Matthew 5:44]; as I have loved you [John 15:12; Galatians 5:22], that you also love one another."
John 15:12 "This is My commandment, that you love one another [Matthew 5:44] as I have loved you [John 13:34; Galatians 5:22]."

Thank you Professor Solberg for another concise video.

I rhink of keeping the O.T. laws not so much in terms of salvation, but more in terms of what they meant at the time. God was bringing rhe ppl into the land of the Canaanites and basically told them you're going to see these ppl doing this and that - i am going ro tell you what to do to stay safe, both physically and spiritually. Don't eat these following things, don't worship any other gods. I see it as honoring God's wisdom. And anyone who's seen the Paris Olympics Opening ceremony (or is like paying attention at all 😂) ooof, "Fear god and keep has commandments" may be a way of keeping yourself in the headspace for discernment necessary for today.
Thanks for posting this and addressing this topic. We recently celebrated Sukkot with a group considered Torah observant. We learned a lot concerning the OT forsure but I did have to remind someone about Galations because of some comments concerning circumcision and participating in passover. After experiencing a conviction, we decided as a family stop doing pagan holidays and birthdays last year. As you stated we have freedom as Christians to observe God's feasts (as they all point to Christ) or to rest on a Sabbath but to operate like your in bondage to the law...gets dangerous it completely dismisses what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did for us.
As Paul preaches, let NO ONE judge you for keeping God's Commandments...and Paul's teachings can be beautifully summarized in the following verse:
"Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, BUT WHAT MATTERS IS THE KEEPING OF THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD."

The "slippery slope" is just fear-mongering. Jesus clearly said to live on EVERY word that comes from the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4). And he warned against setting aside even the LEAST of God's commandments (Matthew 5:17-20). To "fulfill the Law" means to fully-preach it. In short, following the Gospel of Jesus IS following the Law of God/Law of Moses. And Paul said in numerous places that Torah defines sin, such as in Romans 2:13, 3:20, 7:7, and that we keep Torah (eg: Romans 3:31). Of course, the fact that most of the justification of rebellion comes from quoting Paul rather than Jesus proves that Paul is more important to Church doctrine than Jesus.
Deuteronomy 13: You either keep God's Law or your are practicing idolatry.
Deuteronomy 12:32: Do not add to God's commandments or take away from them.
There are two types of commandments in God's Law: (1) How to love God. (2) How to love your neighbor.
(1) Every sacrifice was still offered by the first century believers EXCEPT for the sin offering. Are you sure you aren't conflating other types of sacrifices with the sin offering? I have never heard anyone say that the SIN OFFERING would be offered once again. By the way, sin offerings are NOT necessary for the forgiveness of sins, as evidenced by not only the laws concerning the sin offering (flour is an acceptable offering), but also by the fact that numerous people (eg: King David and the many Jesus explicitly forgave) were forgiven without any sort of sin offering being given, among other things that imply or state that there will be forgiveness without ANY mention of a sin offering.
(2) Might want to look up the word translated as "change" in Hebrews 7:12. The word translated as "change" actually means "transition". The Law is eternal (Psalm 119:160) and therefore cannot be changed. You also might want to look into the fact that King David also performed the priestly duties. And it's rather interesting that you would go this route rather than the much more biblically-grounded route of the fact that there is no Levitical priesthood in place AT ALL. Also, you should look into what the Law of God says is required to be in place to be able to legally offer ANY sacrifice.
(3) So God removing the temple and the Levitical priesthood somehow makes Torah Observance incompatible with faith in Jesus? All that ACTUALLY means is that it is now sinful to offer any sort of sacrifice, since it now is impossible to be done within the system of the priesthood. Anyone who is ACTUALLY following Torah will NOT be offering any sacrifices because it is SINFUL to offer sacrifices apart from the system.
(4) Remind me again, who's trying to sew the veil back together? All you're doing is showing your ignorance of Torah. If God does everything in accordance with Torah (which he does), then when he wants to put a new system in place, he has to remove the old system, so that it now becomes SINFUL to do things that require the old system to be in place.
(4.5) Here is where you prove that you and others like you are the ones that Peter is warning against in 2 Peter 3:16. Paul is not against circumcision. He's against using circumcision as a means of salvation. Besides, how can Paul saw that we uphold the Law (Romans 3:31), that the Law defines sin (Romans 3:20, 7:7), and that we slaves to righteousness (Romans 6:18) which is defined as obedience to the Law (Romans 2:13)? Also, where does the Law say that a man is required to circumcise himself? Good luck trying to find that command, because it's not there. And why did Paul circumcise Timothy after seemingly stating that it alienates us from Jesus, and implying that it is unforgiveable? If Paul (or even Jesus or anyone else) is speaking against something that APPEARS to be contrary to Torah, it is either (a) they are speaking against Torah and are false teachers, or (b) they are speaking against a misinterpretation of Torah and speaking against HUMAN RULES. And by the way, why does James call the Law "the Law of Liberty" (James 1:25, 2:12)? Good luck resolving that apparent contradiction.
Thank you, Timothy!
1. Sorry, I'm not clear on which part of point #1 you disagree with. Do you disagree that, under the Law of Moses, annual animal sacrifices were required of Israel for the atonement of sin? Or that animal sacrifices are no longer required for the atonement of sin? If you affirm both statements, then you and I agree that the Law of Moses is no longer in effect.
2. The word "change" in Hebrews 7:12 is μετατιθεμένης, which comes from μετατίθημι. which can mean (1.) to put in another place, transfer, (2.) to change or alter, (3.) to change one's mind, turn away, desert. The question then becomes, which of these possible meanings is intended in verse 12 based on the context? And even if we use the definition of "transfer," it still results in a net change to what was commanded in the law of Moses.
3. Yes exactly! It is now impossible to keep the law of Moses and follow Jesus at the same time. That's the whole point of this video.
4. Yes exactly! You stated it beautifully. When God "wants to put a new system in place, he has to remove the old system, so that it now becomes SINFUL to do things that require the old system to be in place." This is why we can't keep the law of Moses and follow Jesus at the same time.
4.5. Sorry, I'm not clear on which part of point #4.5 you disagree with. Do you disagree that, under the Law of Moses, circumcision was required of all males? Or that physical circumcision is no longer required? If you disagree that circumcision is no longer required, you will be hard-pressed to explain Galatians 2:1-10 where Titus was not required to be circumcised. If you affirm both statements, then you and I agree that the Law of Moses is no longer in effect.

1. It was NEVER the case that sacrifices atoned for sin. Even if that WAS the case, Jesus being the sin offering does not nullify God's Law, but is done in accordance with God's Law. There would still a sin offering as the Law requires, but what is offered has changed. If God's Law no longer applies, then Jesus died for NOTHING. I'm sure you're familiar with what Paul said about No Law = No Sin.
2. If there was a change in God's Law, then that would (a) prove Psalm 119 false, and (b) prove Deuteronomy 12:32 and Deuteronomy 13 false. Or Deuteronomy 12-13 would prove Hebrews 7 false. Deuteronomy 12:32 prohibits any sort of change in the Law from happening, and Deuteronomy 13 defines rejecting/ignoring/changing the Law as idolatry. The transfer cannot in any way change the Law.
3. You just proved that you do not understand Torah. Or the implications of the Deuteronomy 13 Test.
4. How does not offering sacrifices because the priesthood is no longer in place, which is OBEDIENCE to what the Law requires, in any way prove that Torah observance is mutually exclusive to following Jesus, who told us to obey the Law of God? You are OBEYING the sacrificial laws in Torah without even realizing it!
4.5. Torah does NOT have any command requiring a man to circumcise himself (unless he wants to eat the Passover). The command is to circumcise every male child born to you on the 8th day. But it NEVER required any man to circumcise himself. Paul is NOT teaching against what Torah demands concerning circumcision. He's teaching against a HUMAN RULE concerning circumcision. The Law is still in effect, but because you don't know what it requires (or in this case, does NOT require), you interpret Paul in a way that makes him a false teacher. By the way, Paul encouraged believers to eat the Passover meal.
@@TimothyChapman Thanks, Timothy!
1. "For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by the life" (Lev 17:11).
2. False.
3. False.
4. We either have a Levitical priesthood or we don't. We can't have a Levitical priesthood _and_ all be priests at the same time.
4.5. I never said anything about a man circumcising himself. The law is _not_ still in effect because it required circumcision. And if you disagree that circumcision is no longer required, you will be hard-pressed to explain Galatians 2:1-10 where Titus was not required to be circumcised.

1. The word translated as "atonement" is "kapar", which means "to cover". The word "atonement" is purely English in both origin and concept.
2. Truth. Nobody can change the Law of God because of Deuteronomy 12:32 and Deuteronomy 13. If anyone (including Jesus) tries to do that, then that person is a false teacher. If anyone teaches others to not keep the Law, then according to Deuteronomy 13, they are teaching people to follow another god.
3. So you admit that you fully-understand that the Deuteronomy 13 Test would prove that Jesus and Paul are false teachers worthy of the death penalty had they been teaching what you claim they are teaching.
4. From 30 AD (death & resurrection of Jesus) to 70 AD (the disbandment of the Levitical priesthood), we had both the Levitical priests and the Body of the Messiah as priests. Oops!
4.5. Then why did Jesus, Paul, and the other disciples tell us to obey the Law? Because it is still in effect. No Law = No Sin. And I already refuted you on the requirement of circumcision. I don't have to explain Paul not doing something that the Law does NOT require. You however, will be hard-pressed to explain Acts 16:1-3, where Paul, according to your teachings, forced Timothy to be alienated from Jesus by circumcising him.
@@TimothyChapman Hi, Timothy!
1. Atonement is a very Hebrew concept. It's the reason God requires blood sacrifices on the altar in the law of Moses.
2. Technically, the law of Moses did not change. It came to an end. Which is why we can now have a high priest from the tribe of Judah, rather than Levi.
3. See #2. Also, if Jesus had said anything that the Jewish religious leaders felt violated the Deuteronomy 13 test for a false prophet, they certainly would've mentioned it! But they never did.
4. Yes, this is called a liminal state; one system was winding down while the other was starting up. But from the moment of Jesus's resurrection, the New Covenant had begun, and the temple services were no longer required, even though they were still being carried out.
5. Paul and the other disciples were free to do any sort of Mosaic ritual they wanted because those things were never forbidden or prohibited. For followers of Jesus, they are permitted but not required. (See 1 Cor. 9:20-23)
All glory to Jesus! "But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code" (Rom. 7:6).

- Most notably, I've been asked what other of the 10 commandments I'd be willing to compromise on since I don't keep a 7th day sabbath 😥
I am so glad you find our work helpful! What's interesting is that nine of the ten commandments are repeated, endorsed, and taught in the New Testament, but the keeping of the seventh day Sabbath is not.
RLS
Hebrews 4 explains that Jesus is our Sabbath rest & that "today" (i.e. every day) is our "rest" from the works of the law.
So it's not a matter of "compromise," it's a matter of "entering in" to the finished work of Jesus forever PTL 🙌
Jesus kept the 7th day Sabbath.
Is he our perfect example, or not?
@@TheBiblicalRoots quote--- but the keeping of the seventh day Sabbath is not. ... unquote
Tell me, when your kids disobey one rules of your house, which ones would you keep talking to your kids about? The ones they do keep, or the ones they DON:T keep??? 99.9 % of Jews kept the Sabbath!!! NO NEED to keep talking about that. Jesus talked about the ones they did NOT keep.
What Commandments is this about?
John 14:15 "If you love me, you'll keep my commandments." In other words, if you don't love me, you don't love God. John 14:16 says, Jesus will ask the Father and he will give us another Counselor to be with us forever when we obey God by loving others. He is the Spirit of truth.
Keep only Nine?? Eight??? All ten???
how about this?
John 15:10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and your joy may be full.
Keep only Nine?? Eight??? All ten???
----What is this verse aabout?
Hebrews 4:9-11 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.
-------
And Jesus shall say unto them that followed the law of His father., "how dare you obey Him instead of the NEW Christian doctrine passed on through the infallible pastors. Away from me, for I never knew you. Dont you realise that the sacrafice of your lip service to me as Lord is better than obedience.
Hi, Craig! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15). And I'm sure you would agree that not every command that God has given applies to every person at all times. Some of His commands only apply to certain people (i.e., men, women, parents, Levitical priests) or for certain times (i.e., building an ark, gathering manna, while in exile). And I'm sure you would also agree that we are each only expected to keep the commands of God that apply to us. The NT teaches that the ceremonial Mosaic commands do not apply to Christians today. (ex. Repeated blood sacrifices for sin are no longer required (Heb 10:18).) We still serve God and obey His commands, “But now we are released from the law, having died with Christ to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code” (Rom 7:6).

So a brand new religion not found in scripture. Which prophet told you that God was going to start this new religion apart from what He had already said.
If you believe that, then the Jesus you made up contradicts the rest of scripture. Im sorry, but that seems way more confusing to me. The logical flow of scripture seens to point to repentance and return to fhe ways of God. Every prophet seems to say the same. And the Messiah lives and teaches the same
AND- I am finding that asking the Hebrew roots believer certain questions, tells you even more about them. They are making claims that they are “keeping Torah“. So I’ve begun asking them questions directly from the Torah that they claim to keep. They downplay Christians who go to church on Sunday, and claim that they are “keeping Shabbat” while gathering Each Saturday. When I ask them about all the work that they do on Saturday in setting up tables and chairs, cooking lunch, cleaning pots and pans after lunch, sweeping in mopping floors after Shabbat and I mentioned that I believe that is classified as “work“, they don’t answer it. In other words while they say that they are keeping Shabbat, according to Torah, I really don’t believe that they are. And while claiming to eat “biblically clean“, they eat in restaurants that cook pork and shrimp on the same grill that their chicken was cooked on. And they purchase deli meat, such as beef and chicken, but it is cut with the same meat cutter/slicer that the ham is cut on. These are legitimate questions. When I read the Torah, it looks pretty strict about contamination. The big question is this. If you are really claiming to keep Torah, ARE YOU REALLY???
Why do you feel entitled to critique their behaviors? Do they do that to you? Or does it just irk you that they don't do things the way you do them?
For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Matthew 25:35-46
If you're going to critique Torah observant people, then it's fair to critique Christians. With how many professing Christians there are in the US why is there poverty in the US?
Also there would be no need for the foster care system if every professing Christian family adopted one child.
@@HannahSkyLaneJesus said that the poor will always be with us. Much of poverty is a mindset, but not of course ALL. Anyone professing to walk with Jesus should help the poor. So many people choose to stay in their situation because the American government takes care of them. In Matthew 7:6 Jesus says to not throw your pearls before swine.
@@Gigi2four my point is why do Christians have the right to tare down and criticize people who want to keep the Torah, when Christianity is lacking as a whole in what Jesus told them to do.
Focus on yourself.
@@tbishop4961
No. He’s only logically questioning their claim that they follow the Torah, and yet they don’t. It’s a legitimate question to inquire why some group of people claim to be living X yet all they do is Y.
I love your videos. They're insightful. I'm curious how you'd address some Torahists who say the commandments given to the Levite priesthood were not part of the Sinai covenant. They say its because the non-Levites weren't allowed to be priests. Atonement was optional. Because of that, the law is still valid. I know Heb. 7 refutes their theology but i want to conclusively refute it using only the Tanakh.
So keeping the Sabbath is a "law of Moses" but the rest of the 10 Commandments are not?
How exactly does that work?
@glenwillson5073 Sabbath long preceeded "Moses." God began His Sabbath rest on Day 7 & has been resting ever since. See Hebrews 4 to understand why every day is Sabbath for those who believe.
@@kimartist 《Sabbath long preceeded "Moses." God began His Sabbath rest on Day 7 & has been resting ever since. See Hebrews 4 to understand why every day is Sabbath for those who believe.》
You say, "God *began* His Sabbath rest on Day 7"
God says, "he *rested* on the seventh day" (Genesis 2:2)
God says, "he *had rested* from all his work" (Genesis 2:3)
You say, God "has been resting ever since"
God says, "My Father works hitherto, and I work" (John 5:17)
If you are teaching people to break God's laws, you are a believer of someone but it's certainly not God.
Even the very title of this video is a deception & a lie.
"Why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of Moses at the same time"
The law of Moses is the law of God. It's the law God gave to Moses. It's not & never was Moses's law.
Therefore an honest title of this video would be;
"Why we cannot follow the Gospel of Jesus AND the Law of God at the same time"
So it's a choice of follow Jesus or follow God is it?
I have some bad news for you.
When Jesus returns he intends to enforce, what you deceptively call, the "law of Moses".
Now, why would that be do you suppose?
Zechariah 14:
16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
@Vincent-gc3cuJesus addressed the Sabbath, he taught us when to worship, how and why. He talked about how the preists profaned the Sabbath and how he was Lord of it. He also said, true worshipers would worship in spirit and truth. Not law. Read Galatians 5 :18 and 23. He said we are the temple! Where 2 or more are gathered in his name he is in the midst. Everyday is the Sabbath as in everyday we keep holy, not just on Saturday. Not only did Jesus fulfill the law, he said we fulfill all of it when we love each other. Again, see galations and almost the whole book of romans. Love is the fulfillment of the law. But should only be done an Saturday, lol. Just kidding. If you only worship on Saturday, what do you do the other 6 days?

You are not making any sense.....
The Bible has boundaries and you are trampling all over them.
Jesus backed up His Father - matt 5: 18-19.
He is telling you to embrace the Law whuch is what he did.
That means all who followed must do the same.
So all interoretstion must line up
Your doctrine calls Jesus a liar
Wowww this is so fascinating. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I love your teaching. Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Do you have any Theology Courses ? 💕
There are a few who seem to have a hard time understanding what you're saying. But keep doing what you're doing. God bless you richly.
I find what he says blasphemy against the BIBLE! GODS whole WORD is true and still in affect today for all people!
God is not finishd with the Jews. Rev. 11. There will be a 3 Tempel for the Jews. The last Beast must be sit in these 3 Tempel and say that he is God...
Nonsense
Malachi 3:6 For I am the Lord, I change not;
Anyone claiming God changes is calling God a liar.
What does Jesus have to say about the law? Matthew 5:17-19 Think not that I am come to destroy the law,or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, til all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
I will believe Jesus, not man.
Aaaaaammmmmmeeeeennnn!
Yep we are to follow the law but it does not save us. If we have trouble following it it is about not loving God enough. God said in Isiah if you love me you will obey me. Jesus said if you love me you will follow my commandments
Another... Aaammmmeeeeennnnn!!!
The prophets speak in parables but God taught Moses to speak his laws clearly. Pastors who hate Moses love parables because they can confuse the people. Jesus came to end human judgement.
Thank you and be blessed ❤
Our righteousness is like filthy rags Isaiah64:6. Our obedience to God's Holy Law, including the 7th day Sabbath, is just the result of God's righteousness in us.
Thanks so much Dr Solberg for excellent teaching video. This is so biblically and theologically sound and scriptural, I'm sending it to my bible study student's. You are a great help to the body of Christ. God bless you and your ministry.
Thank you, Pastor!
I have a question for you: If someone observes the law, are they working for their salvation, yes or no? If yes, please explain why you came to that conclusion?
@@sundownsam3369 He can't "yes" or "no" this question. WHO is the "someone" you're talking about? Jew or Gentile? HOW do you propose Jew "observe" law with no extant Temple? And HOW do you propose Gentiles "observe" law in a Temple not made with human hands but out of living stones made out of people? Literally people!
You just said paul said that paul calls the law slavery.
That is blashphemy.
Paul is referring that the law without Jesus does nothing
Its jesus and rhe law.
The material published by First Fruits of Zion (FFOZ) meets all the criteria put forth by R. Solberg. Be discerning, folks.
If we reread Exodus 26:31-33 and bypass the physical attributes of the Most Holy Place, and understand that people did not obtain the sciences we have now, it’s clear that based on the description, God is talking about the human heart.
Yes you can follow the grace of Calvary and Torah too. In fact the terms of the renewed covenant is, " I will write My Torah ( which is the law ) on your heart."
Jeremiah 31:31-34
Isaiah 8:20 says it best. " To the law ( Torah ) and the testimony of it ( Messiah) if they speak not according to this, there is NO LIGHT in them."
Grace should be combined with Torah. Jesus kept the Torah and so did Paul. Don't we realize that sin is transgression of Torah? 1John 3:4. Can we continue to sin after receiving grace from Calvary? Hebrews 10:26-29 says we cant. This is why David penned the words of Psalms 119:11. " Thy word/Torah have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee."
Torah is instruction on how to live a Holy lifestyle. It's how YHVH desires us to worship Him. It's all about love and obedience. " If you love Me, keep My commandments". Again 1 John 5:3. He who says they love me and keeps not My commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him. 1John 2:4
Again, Jesus kept His Father's Torah and 1John 2:6 says" He that says he remains in Him ought himself to walk as He ( Jesus ) walked."
Torah is not a bad word. The law is not a bad word. It's how YHVH GOD desires worship. Obedience in love to Torah after salvation is our worship to YHVH and His Son for His salvation.
We don't keep Torah to earn salvation. We keep Torah from the heart AFTER salvation because it's what YHVH asks us to do. " For this is love that you keep My commandments." 1John 5:3
For the gentile? Absolutely says Paul in Romans 2:12-16. Paul teaches us in Hebrews that there was a CHANGE in the law when Calvary happened.
The sacrifice changed.
The circumcision changed.
The High Priesthood changed.
But Torah never disappeared for the Jew or gentile. Jesus tells us this in Matthew 5:17-19
Christians must return to the Torah that they think has passed with Calvary. Last time I looked heaven and earth is still here. We don't keep Torah to earn anything. We keep Torah because it's written on our hearts out of love from what was accomplished at Calvary.
Jesus never came to abolish the Law or the Prophets but to fufill it instead. You trying to do things your own way and not Gods way. Have you forgotten what happens to ppl in the bible that do what they want and not what God says. Your making his word null if your saying you dont have to follow what God says. And your a false prophet leading ppl in the opposite direction.
Hi, Cos! I teach and believe that obedience is God’s “love language.” Jesus said, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (John 14:15).

You say tha law puts you in prison.
Funny, when i believed what tiu believed for 50 years
WAs a prison
Once i embraced the Law, I was set free indeed.
Dang, you must always hang out with the wrong group of Hebrew roots/Torah observant people!
Anyone on the RIGHT track KNOWS that observing Torah is NOT to earn salvation or God's approval in any way, shape, or form. What can we do to earn more of His love????? NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Torah is God's Instructions to His Family of how His Family should act AFTER they have become part of His Family by their faith in Him.
For example: Your children do not earn their place in your family by obeying household rules; nor do they get kicked out of the family by not obeying household rules. The neighbor kids cannot earn a place in your family by obeying your family's household rules. The parents do not hold their infant children responsible for the household rules at that stage, but teach them as the children grow.
Here's another example. If Johnny joined the Boy Scouts, he can earn merit badges as he completes the activities required. If his buddy decided to join Johnny in doing those activities, he would learn a lot of skills. But at the end of the day, or at the next Scout meeting, Johnny's buddy would not receive any merit badges. Because he never took the oath to join the Scouts to begin with!
Torah is NOT for unbelievers. Torah is NOT a way to enter God's Kingdom.
The apostle John tells us if we are not follow God's commands, we do not love Him.
What are His commands? Are they now different from Torah? Do you not know how to differentiate which Mitzvah of Torah is applicable to which group of people?
[1Jo 2:3-6 CSB] 3 This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his *commands.* 4 The one who says, "I have come to know him," and yet doesn't keep his commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God is made complete. This is how *we* know we are in him: 6 The one who says he remains in him should walk *just as he walked.*
How did Yeshua "walk?" (Surely you know "walk" is the Biblical term for carrying out God's Instructions....?)
Yeshua could not have been the promised Messiah if He had broken Torah.
Yeshua kept Torah. And surely you understand the concept that "keeping or guarding" Torah is not exactly the same as "doing" Torah...? SH.M.R (Hebrew root "shamar" for keeping/guarding) Torah does not mean every person has to do every thing, but honoring/esteeming/respecting Torah and allowing those a particular command is applicable to to do that command.
What did Yeshua Himself say? [Jhn 14:15 ESV] 15 "If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
Again, What are His commandments? Are they now different from Torah?
I have been following/involved in "Hebrew Roots" since 2014 when God led me to a pastor that could connect the dots between the Hebrew Scriptures and the Apostolic Scriptures. After listening to many sessions, I began to see how it all fit together. I was raised in the church and thoroughly know Scriptures. I investigate both sides of an issue to see which lines up with the Word of God more.
No one that I rely on in this arena teaches remotely what you accuse Hebrew Roots/Torah observant people of.
I guess you've gotten in with the wrong crowd. 😆🙃😉🤣
Legislate -
You said that many of us try to shove our beliefs on others.
Hogwash
Maybe some but they would be out of line
The Law speaks for itself because it leaves no room for error.
The law divides good and evil snd eliminstes division
Evangejicalism pronmotes division.
Perspective is everything
I would think that your side is so hell bent on being rebellious that you perceive things being shoved down your throat.
Disproving your first point disproves them all.
1) Atonement-
YOU SAID: God requires burnt offerings and sacrifices.
GOD SAYS in -
(Jeremiah7:21-27)
1Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh. 22(((For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:)))23But this thing commanded I them, saying, ((Obey my voice, and I will be your God,))and ye shall be my people: and ((walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you,)) that it may be well unto you. 24But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, ((but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.)) 25Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them: 26Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
27Therefore ((thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee:))thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.
(((Yashawn)))
God disagrees with you: God proclaims that it was not him that commanded the Israelites to walk in the ways of sacrifice in the day that he led them out of Egypt -
Which would be in the times of Exodus,and Leviticus.
Now lets see what king david has to say pertaining to this-
((Psalms 40:6-10))- king david
(6Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.)
7Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
8I delight to do thy will, O my God:( yea, thy law is within my heart.)
9I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
10 (I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation:) I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
(Yashawn)
We can see the King David also knew that God did not require sacrifice, he even proclaimed it to the congregation, he says the law of God is within his heart And then declared the true ways of Salvation pertaining to God- Which is no sacrifice.
(((Paul took this very text and twisted it back into a blood sacrifice text))- proof.
((Hebrews 10:5-7)) paul
5Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
6In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
((Yashawn))
Here we can literally see Paul taking a text that is approved by God ,and then paul changed it to mean the opposite.
You are not allowed to change the words of God, especially when it renders a new context.
((Yashawn))
God never commanded the ways of sacrifice, so he never commanded the way of Christianity- why? because sacrifice is the backbone of Christianity.
If I need to give more proof to anybody - I'm more than happy to, there is plenty more.
Rob, as you already know that I follow all of your presentations, from just the topic alone I’m responding
There’s no such thing as the gospel of Jesus and the Law of Moses
It was Jesus who GAVE the Law
It was Jesus who ESTABLISHED the Law
It was Jesus who showed us how to KEEP the Law
And it was Jesus who DECIDED the or it was his idea, there’s only one way of salvation.
David said : I DELIGHT TO DO THY LAW O GOD (not Moses) and David was called the man after God’s own heart, was Paul more righteous than David? They are the same in the sight of God and Paul cannot speak against what David have said.
The Law is a guideline in how Jesus wants us to live
Seth, Enoch, Noah, Elijah, Elisha and Moses kept the LAW (the Commandments) and they were all found righteous in the sight of God so why can’t we keep the Law also and be righteous in God sight.
The Law is HOLY
The Law is JUST
The Law is GOOD
The Law is DELIGHTFUL
Moses couldn’t create anything HOLY JUST GOOD and DELIGHTFUL? So it cannot be the Law of Moses
Psalm 19:7-14
The Law of the LORD (not Moses) is PERFECT
The Commandments of the LORD is PURE.
Converting the souls and
Enlightening the eyes, respectively.
Psalm 119: 105 “ THY WORD (God’s Word not Moses) IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET AND A LIGHT UNTO MY PATH”.
Compare that with
Proverbs 6:23 “FOR THE COMMANDMENT IS A LAMP AND THE LAW IS LIGHT.
For not to keep God Commandments and Law is to walk in darkness.
Hear what Isaiah 8:16 says “BIND UP THE TESTIMONY, SEAL THE LAW AMONG MY DISCIPLES. ( New Testament or Covenant)
Same chapter vs 20 “ TO THE LAW AND THE TESTIMONY IF THEY SPEAK NOT ACCORDING TO THIS WORD, IT IS BECAUSE THERE IS NO LIGHT IN THEM
Hebrew 4:1-2 THE GOSPEL IS PREACH UNTO AS US AS WELL AS UNTO THEM. There is only ONE GOSPEL ONE LAW ONE BAPTISM ONE HOD AND FATHER OF ALL
Why is something so LOVELY and so BEAUTIFUL is not for Christians?
You can't follow both. That's for sure. Most of the Biblical contradictions disappear if you treat the Old Testament and the New Testament as the basis of two different. (And somewhat opposing) religion.
When you start out with the erroneous premise that "Hebrew roots/Torah observant" folks think we are SAVED by the Good Works (Torah, mitzvot, Eph 2:10), then you are definitely going to end up in the wrong place.
Thanks for baking us all in the same big pie! ()
What makes you think that hebrews and gentiles are dealt with differently?
Paul never said that....
Gentle man stop mixing up Truth in the bible, there's Two law in the bible Moses Law and Gods Law, Jesus is God,N God is Sprite fulfilling the plan of salvation in humanity, pastor not Moses, or Jesus or Paul or John it's Gods business..c'mon blind cannot lead the blind🤦🧐🧐🧐🧐
God never made a any Covenant with Gentiles. The new Covenant is in Jesus's blood as He said in the last supper. The conditions to fulfill this Covenant is Christ going to the cross . This wss between Jesus and the Father. Praise God!
1. In order for all your views to work, you have to teach replacement, theology which you're doing.
Interesting you had to skip a verse when speaking about the Samaritan woman.
You skipped verse 22 in john 4 Ye worship, ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
You formed an entire view solely from the gentile perspective. 2 question: Have you spent any significant time studying under a remnant jew spoken of in Romans 11 part of the root as they are called. Or have you only studied under gentiles from the branch as we are called?
Wow..I don't know where to start. This is messed up in so many ways. Major note tho..funny you mentioned the sacrifices, temple and priests and yet haven't thought about the irony. Yeshua said not one jot or tiddle shall pass from the Law till all is accomplished (which it hasn't) and yet those three things are no longer around today. Hmm..makes you wonder if those three things were ever commanded to begin with. The priesthood added a lot to Torah especially in Babylon captivity and if it doesn't match YHWH's character it should be questioned. Especially since many prophets mentioned sacrifices never being commanded.. Jer 7:22-23 for example. Two temples destroyed and priests and scribes with their pride. Look up Jer 8:8 "and the lying pen of the scribes". If you think the bible is the definitive Word of YHWH maybe you should look into it more often and ask "why?"
Shalom
That IS the new covenant. The establishment of a better MINISTRY of God's Law. The levitical priesthood and the physical requirement of circumcision has faded away. His commandments remain. As it is written;
"CIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING AND UNCIRCUMCISION IS NOTHING, BUT WHAT MATTERS IS KEEPING THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD"
-1 Corinthians 7:19
This is brilliant. Great points. It does however leave the question of exactly what we ARE to do with the law of Moses, not least given that it is part of our Scriptures. Does "Moses" have now only a pedagogical role to lead us to Chirst, or is there also a greater sense in which following Christ involves keeping the law in the way JESUS kept it?
What rubbish. Who's is the God of the so call old testament. Yeshua ha Mashiach off cause.He change NOT He is the same yesterday today and forever.
It’s not that complicated. I strive to study Torah and don’t worry about Christianity. Christmas and Easter are not biblical and rooted in paganism… Torah was YHWH’s instruction… “Jesus” = Torah (Freedom)… HalleluYah!
Great teaching. Thank you. There are 613 Laws in the Mishnah for Tulmadic reasons. That said, if you read through all of them, you might find the answer is in the middle. The ceremonial laws seem to be replaced by the grace of Christ, the cleanliness laws protected Israel in a time absent antibiotics, and the remainder seem to lay a nice ground work for loving God and your neighbor. “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Tim 3:16-17
Even Bart Ehrman distinguishes the correct gospel, the one that Jesus preached himself about the kingdom of God coming on earth. The gospel about Jesus as a person isn't really what Jesus preached. Jesus, clearly talked about Coming kingdom here on earth, and that He would be the future king of it
I would like to hear your opinion - what exactly is the "Law of Moses" - i.e what laws are included and what are not, and most importantly what is the reason for that statement. I have personally found that there are some important verses that need to be correlated between Gal 3 and Ex 24. There were laws given that were part of the covenant, the people heard these accepted them , then the book of the covenant was sealed, blood was sprinkled and the covenant confirming meal was eaten, that basically seals that agreement. AFTER this, God calls Moses up on the mountain again and gives him the tablets and "the Law" and the commandments to "TEACH THEM". This cannot be part of the covenant, since it cannot be added to as Paul explains in Gal 3. This is the school master part that we are no longer under - and it agrees well with the points you raised here in this vid. However the feasts, Sabbath, 10 commandments have nothing to do with re-conciliation, those are instructions in righteousness, if you chuck these out as part of Moses law, or of ceremonial stuff, you are basically sinning.
For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto THEM: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. HEB 4:2 WHO IS THEM?????
How about Christianity has been so dumded down without much meaning other than getting saved. Torah study has far more meaning about what it means to live. Torah is not in any meaningful part of Christian faith. Thats why serious Jesus followers are interested in the Jewish Messiah.
Hi, while i agree with what is taught in the video, and it is a fact that the levite priesthood ended, I read today Numbers 25:13 God promises, Pinehas, the grandson of Aaron, that his decendants will have the priesthood eternally/perpetually (Strong H5769 - עוֹלָם עוֹלָם - `olam) for his zeal. How can that be reconciled? Maybe with the priesthood of each christian and its almost certain that some of his decendands became christians? Also he didnt get promised the high priesthood for eternity. Or maybe there is a priest of the same name the son of Eli who brougth wrong fire on the altar, but it isnt explicitly said that this ends the levite priesthood, so personally i would say the first explanation is the better one, as the perpetual priesthood of Pinehas decendands isnt bound to a condition in this passage.
10 The Lord said to Moses, 11 “Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites. Since he was as zealous for my honor among them as I am, I did not put an end to them in my zeal. 12 Therefore tell him I am making my covenant of peace with him. 13 He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites.”(NKJV)
You may want to rethink what you have concluded.
Zachariah 14
Isaiah 66
Ezekiel 46:12 (KJV)
Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily unto the LORD, [one] shall then open him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then he shall go forth; and after his going forth [one] shall shut the gate.
Unless you can show where GOD has changed HIS mind .
And now Israel is not HIS Holy Land .
Where all Nations will come up and worship,
On the feast of Tabernacles and on the Sabbath.
You can try to 're-imagine' the Word of the Hebrew Messiah of Israel, but you cannot divorce yourself from the Heart and Soul of The Scriptures and remain in covenant. There is Echad (One) Bride, and she looks like Israel. Not the nation state of today, but the Israel which YHWH has defined. The covenant promises and requirements remain upon the Seed (singular) of Abraham. The Way has not changed, the Truth has not changed and the Life has not changed. The Way of Truth in Life was, is and is to be Trusting/Faithful Obedience, even unto death. To 'mimic', emulate or 'clone' our Glorious King Yahshua in as many ways as possible, trusting that His Word stands Forever as The Father has promised. If we cannot count on His Word, then there is NO TRUTH at all.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with יהוה, and the Word was יהוה.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Matt 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of יהוה.
The tares are sown by the enemy, which the vast majority of people accept readily. Not because it aligns with every Word of YHWH, but because they WANT these 'myths' to be true in their hearts. The same hearts which they like to say 'god knows my heart' - Yes He Does!
Matt 23:1 Then spake Yahushua to the multitude, and to his disciples,
2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:
3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
Verse 3 above = Hear and Obey (Sh'mah) Moses (Torah). There is no ambiguity here, other than that which is sown in the stony hearts of men. He would not and could not command to Obey Moshe in one breath and then say, according to 'christianity', that Moshe has been done away with.
What kind of heart does our Father desire to give us? An obedient heart, one which Has His Word (Torah) written on it, thus making us to Walk in His Way of Truth in Life.
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith יהוה, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their Elohim, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know יהוה: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith יהוה; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
The time of refining is just ahead, and many blind/closed eyes will be opened. It will be accomplished in His timing and to His Glory!
We don't follow the 603 laws of Moses but we follow the 10 commandments which were written by God hand on the tablets and christ teachings. In Matthew 5:19 after teaching the 10 commandments Jesus said "whosoever, therefore breaks one of these least commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in relation to the kingdom of heavens. But whosoever does them and teaches them will be called great in relation to the kingdom of heaven"
In colossians 2: 16 the religious festivals, ceremonies and sabbaths(different from the 10 commandment weekly sabbath) were nailed to the cross. The sabbath's referred here are ceremonies that used to last 7 consecutive days and included sacrifices of animals. There are 7 of this kind of sabbath festivals in total throughtout the year. Paul is saying this sabbaths are no longer needed because jesus was the sacrificial lamb on the cross. But the weekly seventy day sabbath is still required. In fact when Paul is writing this letter it to the church and during this period the church kept the 7th day sabbath. The seventh day sabbath didn't get changed by the church until in the 4th century by the council of leodocia centuries after Paul was already dead.
Hi, I am sure this have been mentioned before BUT to the point of about the priesthood that in 1 Peter we are all called to be a royal priesthood, this isn’t new to the New Testament. God called the children in Exodus his kingdom of priest and a holy nation IF they obey His words.
And this was while there was a levitical priesthood.
“And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.””
Exodus 19:6 NKJV
Jesus was preaching Matthew John and Luke Noah speaking the scriptures the Torah and the prophets oh Jesus he said Moses will judge you
I love your studies!! Do you have a video on blood sacrifices in the millennial reign? Some say there will be sacrifices and temple in the millennial
None of us can keep all of the commandments. If we could then Christ didn't need to die for our sins. But those that make the effort will be welcomed into the kingdom of Heaven. It's those present day christians that say the law is done away with that wont be in the kingdom. And the ones that teach that some of the commandments have been removed or no longer need to be followed that will be the least in the kingdom.
It says in Ezekiel that a temple will be rebuilt and the Messiah(the prince) will bring offerings on its alter. Please read Ezekiel.
Amen
