An interesting question to ponder…. (Your help needed.)

Posted on February 5, 2014 by Pete Rambo

While hanging with my good friend, Nick, a couple weeks ago, we were batting thoughts around and I asked, ‘Is it ever justifiable in Scripture to lead people away from God’s commandments?’ Or, to put it another way; ‘Is there … Continue reading →

Christians, please help me understand…

Posted on January 27, 2014 by Pete Rambo

I have four boys, most of whom are teenagers.  We do not have a communication problem, so I can tell them what to do and they understand perfectly well. If I tell them clearly, once or twice, to do something, … Continue reading →

Has the Application of the Law Changed?

Posted on January 13, 2014 by Pete Rambo

What does it mean to be ‘stiffnecked?’

Posted on January 10, 2014 by Pete Rambo

Sometimes, I think the Father places thoughts in my head leading me on particular studies.  I will suddenly think of a term, word or concept and the Spirit will compel me to study it out. One such thought that had … Continue reading →

The VISUAL Psalm 119…

Posted on January 9, 2014 by Pete Rambo

Yesterday’s post with some information about my ‘highlighting habit’ and a few pretty pictures made me think to share Psalm 119 from a different perspective.  Prior to understanding how much YAHWEH values HIS Torah, I found this Psalm to be … Continue reading →

Chewing gum for the brain…

As I have mentioned before, I am reading/enjoying/re-reading J. K. McKee’s The New Testament Validates Torah.  Frankly, this is the single best systematic addressing of Torah for the Messianic.  I believe more and broader scholarly works will emerge as time … Continue reading →

Distinct? Or, United? (God in a box.)

Posted on December 27, 2013 by Pete Rambo

In a recent online conversation, several Christian pastors were trying to force me to subscribe to their particular understanding of the nature of Yeshua and how they believe the Godhead fits together.  Predictably, because I didn’t use or agree with … Continue reading →
