1. Kosher Wines Aren't Just for the Passover Anymore May 21, 2008 How much do you know about kosher wines? If you're Jewish you may be very familiar with the term; this refers to wines that are made according to Jewish dietary law that covers wines. Jewish dietary law mostly covers foods that are strictly forbidden under law and since these foods are not typically used in wine production, many brands and vintages can be technically considered kosher wines. For most, this refers to wines that are manufactured under the supervision and strict code of a rabbinical counsel. Most today consider the best kosher wines to be those made in Israel. While few ...

2. Overcome in Christ Daily May 05, 2008 Yeshua was sent to offer His life as the Passover Lamb of God (not the pagan Easter rabbit, an unclean animal) for those who receive Him as such and confess and forsake (even daily as necessary), our sins. As long as in our hearts and minds, and increasingly in our actions, we are turning from sin and partaking of the divine nature, sharing in God's righteousness by the power of the Holy Spirit, the blood of the Lamb has got us covered. However, pardon is not permission. Mercy is not approval. Those who profess to be Christians are to let Christ live again in and through and for them (1 Joh... (read more) Author: David Ben-Ariel

4. Kosher Food - Kosher Take-out, Steak and Dairy April 10, 2008 Kosher food satisfies Kashrut or Jewish nutritional laws. The word kashrut means healthy or appropriate in Hebrew. If the food attunes the Halacha or Jewish law, then that food is kosher food. On the contrary, foods usually tagged as Jewish are not essentially kosher. Jewish foods are usually those dishes, which are conventionally Jewish. Kishka, latke, cholent, Kreplach, and kugel are traditional Jewish foods. Jews consider these foodstuffs as kosher foods, if they are prepared according to Kashrut. The laws of kosher foods are straightaway obtained through the bible through interp...

6. To Jerusalem March 14, 2008 What do you do when you are the Savior of the World, have a little over a week left to impart your message to your disciples and still have to make the journey to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover? If you are Jesus of Nazareth, an itinerant rabbi and preacher, it appears you keep going about your business, even as you know you are about to face your own death. On our calendar Palm Sunday arrives this Sunday. For Jesus and his disciples their journey to Jerusalem marked returning to a city that had attempted to stone Jesus earlier in his ministry. The twelve closest to Jesus h... (read more) Author: Cory Kemp

8. Holidays - There's plenty left to see on a shrinking globe. January 20, 2008 The word holidays is derived from 'holy days' and were originally religiously oriented celebrations. Easter, Christmas, Yom Kippur, Passover and many others originated in the history of the Christian or Jewish religions. In the United States, Thanksgiving originally had religious undertones, but many consider it a welcome harvest festival.

9. Easter for Home Schoolers: Why Christians Don't Celebrate Passover October 16, 2007 Most Christian home school students will tell you that the origin of Passover can be found in the Old Testament book of Exodus. The term Passover comes from the Jewish word "Pesakh" which means "passing over". During a 400-year period of bondage out of which Moses would soon lead the Jewish people, The Jews were commanded to kill a sacrificial lamb and spread the blood of this lamb on the doorpost of their home. This blood would alert the Angel of Death, who would then pass over the house. Families who did not have blood on the doorpost would be punished with the murder of their firstborn son....

11. Freedom is a Gift April 02, 2007 FREEDOM IS A GIFT This week is the Jewish holiday of Passover. It's a festival that's been celebrated for thousands of years and every year we read the same story of how Moses took the Israelites from oppression into freedom. It's a powerful story of how one man can change the lives of many and continue to influence people for hundreds of generations. Whether we believe the story is true or not is irrelevant. The powerful metaphor contained within it has been a beacon for many oppressed peoples throughout the world. Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu and ...

12. Jews need the blood of the Lamb February 17, 2007 Christianity is all about a substitutionary human sacrifice for the sins of other humans. Yes, that's true. Why? The Prophets spoke of it and the Bible foreshadowed it many times: Yeshua is the Suffering Servant. The Jews teach that the entire nation/people of Israel is the Suffering Servant and atone for many. Here's an example of some self-righteous Jews, the type who would vehemently deny such atonement is possible by one life for another when debating with Christians, and then turn around and state: On July 6, 1941, Reb Elchanan was studying in the house of R. Avrohom Gro... (read more) Author: David Ben-Ariel

13. The Church of my Dreams February 02, 2007 The priests would harvest the grain as the sun rose at the beginning of the Passover weekend. The grain would have to be crushed as it was ground to be made into the unleavened bread. It was then kneaded into dough and baked in an oven, to become a loaf. Later this loaf was broken. Today it symbolises the body of Christ that believers share in Holy Communion. Many different denominations have various ways of going about it but the symbolism remains the same. The wine represents the blood of our Savior and the bread His Body. But what is this Body really? Many of us have... (read more) Author: Jack Viljoen

14. Death is Planned Lovingly at the Highest Level September 21, 2006 In the abstract world of the esoteric, souls are planning their rebirthing into the physical world. In the formless body of the creator, individualized pieces (souls) of the creator meet with others souls to plan out their new lives, the circumstances of their births, what they want to experience in this lifetime, and the time, place and circumstances of their death. In the greater picture, the body is an illusion-it is a vehicle for the soul to experience physical life. The soul chooses the parents that will bring them the greatest opportunity to experience what it is that ... (read more) Author: Roy Klienwachter

15. Moses, Miriam and Passover: A Spiritual Guide April 09, 2006 Moses, Miriam and Passover: A Spiritual Guide I have been thinking a lot about Miriam and her role in the story of Exodus. Usually, we think of the Passover holiday as commemorating the Jews freedom from slavery in Egypt. In the Hebrew language, the holiday is called "Hag HaHeirut" – the freedom holiday. The Hebrew word for Egypt is "Mitzrayim". It shares the same root with "Meitzar", which means "narrow", or "constricting". If we look at the meaning of this holiday from a wider lens, it provides us an opportunity to free ourselves from our narrow-mindedness and personal slavery, the kind...

16. The Passover Memorial April 08, 2006 Could God's holy days, which portray His plan of salvation, exclude Jesus' sacrifice? How could Jesus' ultimate sacrifice be less than holy? Didn't God have the Israelites smear lamb's blood on their doors to avert death? Didn't that clearly represent Christ's offering for mankind? Yes! The Passover lamb was to be kept from Nisan 10 until the 14th (Ex. 12:1-6). It was then to be killed on the 14th. It was to be killed in the evening. How do we know for sure which evening is being discussed? Because God the Father set us a PERFECT EXAMPLE! When did God decree that Jesus could declare ... (read more) Author: David Ben-Ariel

17. The Oracles of God January 29, 2006 Just what do you mean "the oracles of God?" And is the sacred calendar a part of them? There are only four places in the New Testament that speak of the oracles of God: Acts 7:38 reveals that Moses received "the lively oracles to give unto us."Rom. 3:2 states, without apology, that "the oracles of God" were COMMITTED TO THE JEWS. Heb. 5:12 speaks of "the first principles of the oracles of God" and 1 Pet. 4:11 states that those whom God has gifted to speak should "speak as the oracles of God." All of these examples use the Greek word logion (Strong's Concordance #3051) that means an... (read more) Author: David Ben-Ariel
