Related Video Teachings

• Matthew 15:1-20 and What Defiles a Person? – Yeshua condemned the Pharisees for making up new rules and teaching people to break God’s direct commandments, so does it really make sense for him to turn around and immediately make up a new rule of his own and teach people to break God’s direct commandments?
• The Dangers of Wine and Kings in Proverbs 20:1-2 – These two verses are arranged in a parallelism that illustrates how all alcohol and government are both dangerous servants and fearful masters. In the wrong context, at the wrong time, or too much of either one can do far more harm than good.
• Defining Evil and Good in Romans 12:9 – Paul said we are to abhor what is evil and hold fast to what is good, but what is evil and what is good? The Bible is the only reliable source we have to identify these things. Whatever God says is evil, we should abhor. Whatever God says is good, we should hold fast to.
• Romans 14:13-14 – Common or Unclean? – Errant translations of this passage have created a lot of confusion and bad doctrine. Paul was not saying that God’s rules about what is clean and unclean had changed or didn’t matter. He was talking about man-made rules for what is “common”, not God’s rules. Akathartos vs Koinos.
