Passover and the Church

By: Steven Daskal

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

We share in the blessings of Passover because as God saved Israel out of bondage in pagan Egypt by the blood of a lamb without blemish, He saved all mankind out of sin and disobedience to Him by the blood of the one John the Baptist referred to as “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.”

Significance of the Sabbath

By: Steve Daskal & Joe Butta

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

Jesus emphasized that He valued the Sabbath.  He went into the synagogue for worship and the study of the Torah on the Sabbath, as did all observant Jews of His day.  However, Jesus insisted upon a heartfelt observance of the Sabbath, not just adherence to static rules.  He knew His Father’s will, that the Sabbath was created as a blessing, a benefit, to man, not as a restraint or punishment.

Why Having a Relationship with Jesus Matters

By Joe Butta

Christian Messianic Analysis & Apologetics

The real God does indeed love us unconditionally, but is absolutely holy — we cannot reach Him or please Him until we are made holy by the blood of the Lamb of God, Messiah Jesus.  Without Christ, we are too filthy to enter His presence.  But this reality infuriates moderns and post-moderns.

Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur: Is This Any Way to Celebrate New Year?

By Steve Daskal

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

While admitting that human beings are frail, fallible, and unable to obey the Law, rabbis teach the Jewish people that they can be forgiven through prayer, fasting, repentance, and doing good works.  This is not found anywhere in the Old or New Testament.

ROME AND THE JEWISH RELIGIOUS LEADERSHIP…SIN IS THE PROBLEM

By: Joe Butta and Steve Daskal

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

The Prophet Daniel spoke specifically about the Roman period in chapter 9:26 when he stated, “After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One [Moshiakh] will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary.

ESTABLISHMENT OF THE HASMONEAN DYNASTY…SIN IS THE PROBLEM

By: Joe Butta &  Steve Daskal

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

The problem of sin — of prideful rebellion against God despite His loving provision and protection — remained.  The Second Temple ultimately was no more effective than Solomon’s.  Rituals and sacrifices were no substitute for justice, obedience, and mercy.

THE EXILES AND PROMISES OF THE PROPHETS…SIN IS THE PROBLEM

By:

Joe Butta & Steve Daskal

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

While the captivity, struggles to re-establish Jerusalem and the Temple, and the preaching of the prophets all worked to redirect the Jewish people’s focus back to God and the Torah, it did not provide a complete, durable salvation — only a temporary covering.

Has Anyone Seen the Face of God?

Christian Messianic Analysis and Apologetics

By: Steve Daskal and Joe Butta

Mortal men cannot look upon the “face” of YHVH, God the Father, because it is incomprehensibly awesome.  Even Moses was awed just from seeing His “back,” and being in the physical proximity to the Holy Presence.
