Volunteer for Torah Portions

Starting this week, DOYC is adding Parasha (Torah Portion) summaries to our Sabbath services. The elders wish for DOYC members to serve one another by taking turns presenting a 5- to 10-minute synopsis of the week’s Parasha. Anyone, male or female, may volunteer. All that’s required is to read the Parasha during the week, and be prepared to share an overview of its contents.

Elder Alexander’s parents will be visiting us for the first time on October 31. It would mean a lot to him if you all would make a special effort to be present for service that day. It would feel great to have a packed sanctuary!

Happy Prep Day!

If you are struggling, do not stop praying and seeking Him.

Life as a believer is not always joy and mountain tops. Look at what Yeshua went through. We will have troubles but do not lose faith or let your heart be faint. He is with us in times of pain, sorrow, struggles, heartache and sickness.

We may not always understand as we see with Job, but behind the veil a spiritual war is taking place and we are all called to stand strong in times of tribulations.

I don't know what you are going through today, but you are not alone. I'm praying for you today brothers and sisters. That our Lord Mighty in Battle and Power will give you the victory, the peace, the healing, the word that you are seeking.

I pray that your faith be increased and the Comforter makes His presence known. I pray that you know and believe in His promises of restoration and redemption for you. Do not let the darkness overcome you in your times of pain. He has plans to prosper you and bring light to your eyes and joy to your heart. Get back up, we all fall, but it's the getting back up that wounds the devil. Keep fighting the good fight and knocking on heavens door. He is close to the broken hearted and His Hand is not short.

I keep hearing it: “Jesus is my Sabbath.”

Let me ask you: "Does the Bible ever actually say that?" Not once!!!

If we follow that logic, should we apply it to these other claims Yeshua made...

“I am the bread of life” (John 6:35)
Should we stop eating?

“I am the light of the world” (John 8:12)
Should we remove every lamp from our homes?

“I am the door” (John 10:7-9)
Should we trust Him and remove all doors, leaving our homes unprotected?

Of course not. But suddenly, when it comes to the Sabbath, mainstream Christian doctrines claim Yeshua “replaces” it. Why does Scripture get twisted here but nowhere else?

Think about it: Yeshua confronted the Pharisees openly. He called them vipers (Matt 12:34), hypocrites (Matt 23:13), and exposed their man-made traditions (Mark 7:6-9). If He came to abolish the Sabbath, wouldn’t He have said it clearly? Wouldn’t He have condemned them for enforcing a law He came to cancel? When looking closer at the text, we realize He exposed the man-made laws that were added to the 4th commandment, like plucking grain or healing on Sabbath. God's command never forbade those activities but the traditons of the Pharisees did.

The penalty for breaking the Sabbath was death (Exod 31:14-15, Num 15:32-36). Yeshua didn’t teach people to break it. He kept it. His disciples kept it. After His death, the early believers continued observing it (Luke 23:56; Acts 13:42-44).

If the Sabbath ended at the cross, why didn't He make it crystal clear or why didn't the Bible record it?

The truth is simple: the Sabbath was never meant to be abolished. It’s a sign between Yehovah and His people forever (Exod 31:13; Ezek 20:12). It was made for mankind (Mark 2:27), not just Israel.

Yes, Yeshua brings spiritual rest, but spiritual rest doesn’t cancel physical obedience. Just like Yeshua being the Bread of Life doesn’t stop us from eating.

If we truly follow Him, shouldn’t we walk as He walked (1 John 2:6)? And if we claim faith in Him, shouldn’t we honor the Sabbath He kept, not reject it because of man-made arguments?

Stop letting tradition or “clever sayings” replace obedience to Yehovah. Walk as He walked. Keep His Sabbath.

If sin had not entered the world, then no savior would have been needed.
If we (man) did not sin (break the law of God), then Messiah would not have had to suffer.

1 Samuel 15:22 (ESV)
Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices,
as in obeying the voice of the Lord?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
and to listen than the fat of rams.

Isaiah 53:5 (CJB)
But he was wounded because of our crimes,
crushed because of our sins;
the disciplining that makes us whole fell on him,
and by his bruises we are healed.

The world hates the truth and rejects the Word. Don't worry about being rejected by the world; be more concerned about being rejected by the Eternal Father.

I keep the Sabbath. I honour Yehovah’s appointed times and follow His instructions about food. And somehow, that becomes enough for someone to decide I belong to the Hebrew Roots Movement.

I find that frustrating. Please read what I actually teach before handing me a label.
I describe myself as a Messianic Hebrew, a Torah-observant follower of Yeshua. I use that description to express my faith and walk, without claiming Jewish ancestry. My convictions come from reading Scripture and seeking to live by it. Yeshua’s words in Matthew 5:17–19 matter to me. So does the call to walk as He walked (1 John 2:6).

Yes, there is overlap with beliefs people call “Hebrew Roots.” Shared beliefs do not mean I identify with a movement or endorse every teaching associated with it. And fairness matters here: I will not assume everyone under that label teaches the same things.

But there are dangers we need to speak about plainly. When recovering the Hebrew context becomes chasing hidden meanings that the text cannot support, we can mistake speculation for truth. When loyalty to a teacher’s particular calendar calculations or preferred pronunciation becomes the test of whether someone belongs to God, we risk adding requirements He never gave.

There is also a danger in becoming so consumed with exposing errors in Christianity that contempt takes hold. Knowing about Sabbath does not give me permission to belittle someone who has never been taught about it. And if our pursuit of Torah leads us to dismiss Paul or walk away from Yeshua, something has gone terribly wrong. Yeshua said Moses wrote about Him (John 5:46).

I reject any teaching that makes obedience the price of redemption. We are saved by grace through faith, created in Messiah for good works (Ephesians 2:8–10). A saved heart should desire to obey the One who saved us. God expects obedience from His people, and His Spirit moves us to walk in His ways (Ezekiel 36:27). We still stumble and grow, but if we have no desire to obey Him, we need to slow down and ask ourselves why.

These dangers deserve scrutiny wherever they appear, including among those who use my preferred label. Calling myself Messianic Hebrew does not place my teaching beyond correction.
