Growing Cold 5 – Wheat and Tares 1
Though we thought the series would be complete after the four types of soil from the parable of the sower, R. Paul Falk presents yet another insightful challenge from the parable of the wheat and tares which concludes with the primary difference between us today, though we all seem to look alike…until the harvest.
The Unpardonable Sin
R. Dennis Richards examines Yeshua’s teaching about the unpardonable sin in the context of casting out demons, spiritual war and the work of the Holy Spirit.
Yom Teruah – The Way of Return
R. Dennis Richards delivers a practical message for Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets) revealing three steps we take in the process of “making teshuvah,” or turning back, during the “10 Days of Awe” between Yom Teruah and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement).
Erev Yom Teruah – The Shofar an Alarm!
R. Paul looks at Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets) in a very different way starting from a scripture that involves the shofar as an alarm of turbulent times to come, and proceeds through some very pointed prophecies regarding the plans of our Creator for his people in the latter days.
The Road to Teshuvah
R. Dennis Richards delivers some very acute insights on “making teshuvah” through “the ten days of awe” between Yom Teruah (Day of Trumpets) and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement), and how we should approach the presence of God for what we walk away thinking was a great time of worship.
Ki Tavo – The Rich Man and Lazarus
R. Paul Falk cracks opens up the mysterious parable of the rich man and Lazarus to reveal one of the main priorities emphasized throughout the Torah and the parables of Yeshua. This single, vital thing can be the key to whether we are blessed or cursed.
Ki Teitzay – Growing Cold 4
With this combined Torah portion and message, R. Paul Falk concludes the Growing Cold series showing the connections between “good soil,” the words of the Messiah, and the faith of Abraham. A vital message to understand the key to being fruitful from a heart of “good soil.”
The first parts in the series: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
Growing Cold – Part 3
R. Paul Falk continues the Growing Cold series (Part 1, Part 2) through the four kinds of hearts in the parable of the sower with an amazing explanation of how worldly thorns prevent fruitfulness in our lives. He also poses the penetrating question, “What is YOUR price?”
The Book of Job
R. Dennis Richards relates the book of Job to the tribulations we go through, answering the hard questions like “WHY?” and “Why are my prayers not being answered?” and shows us something Job knew which is the key to victory for us all.
Re’ech – Growing Cold – Part II
With this Torah portion, R. Paul Falk continues on the topic of Growing Cold (Part 1) dealing with how we can know a prophet from a false prophet, and why there must be tribulation in our lives.
