The rich, young ruler asked Yeshua, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” The Messiah answered, “If you would enter life, keep the commandments.” To fully return to God means to return to His commandments in obedience. Let’s take a look.

The Days of Teshuvah begin tonight at sundown, so we’ll call this post, Day Zero.

Traditionally, Psalm 27 is read each of the forty days. It’s a short 14 verses, so let’s break that down and see how it’s a call to return to God.

Genesis – TP #3.3 – The Covenant

Posted on October 13, 2021 | Comments Off on Genesis – TP #3.3 – The Covenant

The Word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision. God promised that the heir of Abram would be Abram’s son and that his offspring would be as numerous as the stars in the heavens. Genesis 15:6 then records, “And Abram trusted God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.

Genesis – TP #1.1 – Creation, part 3

Posted on September 26, 2021 | Comments Off on Genesis – TP #1.1 – Creation, part 3

The days of creation continued:

Day 6 – Livestock, Creeping things, Beasts of the field, Man and Woman
Day 7 – Rest

Genesis 1:24 “And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so.”

The Days of Teshuva, Part 4

In part 2, we learned that teshuva means to return to the paths of righteousness as written in the Torah. But what if you’ve never been taught the Torah? What if you were taught that Christians don’t need the Torah? Do we really need to do teshuva in that way?

Torah simply means instructions. The Torah is God’s instructions for how He wants us to live. What follower of God doesn’t want to live the way He designed for us? Maybe you’ve been taught that the Torah was just for the Jews and not for Gentile believers. Is it possible that God gave instructions to one group of people that He didn’t expect the rest of humanity to follow?

The Days of Teshuva, Part 2

If the Days of Teshuva sound foreign to you, that is not a surprise. Most pastors don’t preach on the subject. And if they do, they tend to associate it with Easter and the days more commonly known as Lent. That’s understandable since they are both relating to the same thing. So, why the change from Teshuva to Lent? We’ll get to that in part three.

What are the Days of Teshuva?
