In my decades-long search to find my true Jewish identity, I have come to embrace some closure in my understanding that “home” is not a place or a thing that can be found in this world. Difficult as it is sometimes hard to admit publicly, I know that home is not a land or a country on earth. It is not a birthplace, a birthright, a birth culture, and not even an aliyah, or going up to fulfill an inheritance entitlement to a piece of Middle East real estate called “The Land of Israel.” I will go so far as to say that coming home is not even in returning to hear and do the Torah – the Law. For some, this might come across as shocking. Yet, the truth is, all these concepts are essential living expressions and metaphors for everyday life that point us to our true home, which is in the King of all Kings, who rules in and from a divine government belonging to his kingdom - the Kingdom of Heaven. This is our true home in a different dimension of time and space, understood as Jerusalem above.This is Episode 164 of Real Israel Talk RadioSupport the show

How are we supposed to approach matters of this nature when they come to knock on our door, knowing it is clear that we must go on with life, though bereaved. It is not an easy matter to deal with. So, what is the answer? How are we to handle life when losing a loved one to the Sting of Death, which is the Last Enemy as spoken about in the Bible.Recently, I sat down for a candid dialogue with my wife to discuss this very issue because of her own experience in suddenly losing her deep friend and husband of 22 years. I, too, have had to handle the sudden death of my son at 24 years old, as well as dealing with the death of my two sibling brothers, each within one month of the other. Of course, some of you listening here have your own survival stories to tell. Together, I think we can all learn from each other that there is comfort and hope for believers in the redemption actions of Yeshua, the Messiah. But still, even in this, the throbbing pain of the passing away of a loved one takes time and a resolve to let them go, to begin a process of healing and closure. I’m Avi ben Mordechai, and here is the continuation of my discussion with my wife on this matter of Death: The Last Enemy, Letting Go, and Healing from the Pain.Real Israel Talk Radio Episode 163 Support the show

Also, you may send a text msg or leave voicemail (425) 550-6670We understand that the pain of one who passes away is no more in this life. However, what now remains is that for us, we must go on with life, though bereaved, and frankly, this is not an easy matter to deal with. So, what is the answer?I sat down for a candid and deeply honest dialogue with my wife to discuss this very issue. From her personal experience of losing her first husband and deep friend of 22 years, I thought you might find some of her insights encouraging. I, too, have had to handle matters of a sudden death in losing my son of 24 years old. And I am certain that here, in this listening audience, some of you folks have your own stories to tell. Together, I think we can all learn from each other that, at least, for believers in the redemption actions of Yeshua the Messiah, there is comfort, and there is hope. But still, even in this, the throbbing pain of the passing away of a loved one does not quickly fade. It takes time and a resolve to let them go, to begin the process of healing from the pain that we are all left with. Death is never a savior to take us away from pain and suffering. Death is the Last Enemy. Support the show

Soon, every country worldwide will have a Digital ID structure in place for their citizens. Of course, it will promote the look and feel of something that can be used for online convenience, ease, and personal security for identification and verification. But this is their "spin." There is much more to the worldwide Digital ID System than meets the ear and eye. The new system, now in full development and implementation, is far greater in form and function than one can even begin to imagine! Because of this, we need to understand and move forward with great awareness. We need to know what they - the global elite powers of the world - are cooking up, how their system works, and what we, as YHWH's redeemed people, need to know so that we can respond to it in a biblical way.

He comes from a family of 9 siblings – six brothers and three sisters. Micah grew up in a home with daily Bible teachings and lessons. But like many people, he also had many questions that needed answers, answers that he found after he learned to examine scripture and test everything, holding on to what is true while letting go of false doctrines and so many debilitating traditions of men. Micha observes and follows the calendar paradigm established by the House of Tzadok in the Dead Sea Scrolls. However, he has a beautiful and unique perspective on how we should relate to all the household of faith and the Tzadokite calendar and how it applies to us in our everyday lives. Give him your ears for 50 minutes and see if his ideas resonate. Perhaps you will also get some of your questions answered. This is Real Israel Talk Radio, Episode 156. Support the show

Amir was born to Israeli parents and grew up in Ramale, not too far from Tel Aviv. His life and growing up years were filled with abuse and pain on many levels. Amir grew up among secular Israelis, Christians, and Arabs, never knowing his true heritage until, one day, he learned the truth about the promised Messiah of the Hebrew Scriptures. I had the opportunity to talk with Amir about his life's journey from a secular Israeli to a prominent and growing Messianic Voice of Truth based in Perth, Western Australia. Join me for a chat about Amir Atieh (Arabic for a "giver"), his testimony, and his transformation from a secular Israeli to a Messianic Teacher.

Shavu’ot, in the Bible, presents itself as an annual festival about biblical restoration, renewal, and completion. Today, I will return to my focus on the link between the Festival of Shavuot and what many often refer to as a concept called the "rapture."  Said differently, this idea can be better understood as to what Yeshua refers to as the resurrection of the Last Day, in Hebrew, the "Techiat HaMatim." Essentially, Shavuot or Pentecost is likely the Day and Hour that no one has yet experientially known...ever! Because it is yet a future event that we are all waiting for. This is what Hebrews 11:39-40 is referring to. It is the same event that Yeshua refers to in Matthew 24:33 and John 6:40 - the end and the door of summer. It's the same idea that Paul talks about as the "door of hope" in Romans 8:23-25. Join me today for the program, "Shavuot (Feast of Weeks/Pentecost) End Times and the Theme of the Last Day Resurrection - PART 2.Support the show

A harvesting of souls performed as an ingathering and separating of wheat from tares (Matthew 13:30).A restoration to repair Adam’s treasonable transaction with the Tree of the Knowledge of Good but Evil in Genesis 3:6 and then passing that corruption down to all of us. A calling to freely become an ally and associate of King Messiah’s government administration on earth, as it is also in Shalem, the Kingdom of Heaven (Genesis 14:18 and 1 Corinthians 6:3)A rebuilding of Yehovah’s Government of Heaven on earth, as it is in heaven (Acts 15:16 based on Amos 9:11).An end of salvation through the door of summer and the start of a new component of eternal life through the door of hope (Romans 8:25 and Matthew 24:33)A bodily transformation through a promised resurrection on the Last Day (John 6:40 and Romans 8:23)Support the show

We will also look into the naming and birth of Yochanan or John the Baptist in Luke Chapter 1 as well as the significance of the ministry of John or Yochanan "the Baptist" and his immersion of Yeshua in the Jordan in Matthew 3:13 and how it relates to the ministry of Elijah in Malachi Chapters 3-4, who was a prophet divinely appointed to announce the restoration of all things before the coming of Messiah who must restore the fallen tent or Tabernacle of the House of David. Our discussion will also examine the context of Matthew 15:24-25 as it speaks about a Canaanite Woman and the bread that falls from the Master's Table. Further, we will also look into Galatians 3:19, which concerns a reference to the law of the Levitical Priesthood and how this speaks about the Melchizedek priesthood calling in light of the Spirit and Power of Elijah.Among the many religious issues of the Jewish people during the late Second Temple Period, a major point of conflict was about the festival and civil calendars of Judaism. Understanding this brings a further disclosure about the Priestly House of Tzadok in light of the 1947 discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the nearby caves of the Qumran area in the State of Israel.  Support the show

Among the many religious issues of the Jewish people at that time, one major point of conflict was that of the calendar. You wouldn’t think that this would be such a major issue, however, we know this to be true historically, thanks in part to the 1947 discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls.  On my program today, we will hear from Eddie Chumney of Hebraic Heritage Ministries. Eddie has dedicated a lot of research time to sorting out Judaism’s calendar issues of the past two millennia and how they touch us now, particularly as it relates to the Jewish Messianic Movement that we know today. Support the show

Why do they do this? What does it all mean, and particularly, HOW is the Passover table service conducted?With today’s episode of Real Israel Talk Radio (with an extended running time of one hour and 42 minutes),  I am going to present to you what I understand and appreciate about the Passover.  I will share with you my version of the biblical Haggadah or retelling of the Passover story. However, I will tell you the story from my point of view rather than from the culturally typical Jewish point of view. This means the readings and explanations that you will hear me speak about from my Haggadah will present according to a more non-traditional Jewish Seder. Essentially, my focus IS NOT designed to elevate the customary "fun" of the Passover with all of its typical table rituals, songs, and ceremonies that have come to shape the Jewish Passover of today. From my point of view, most of those rituals and ceremonies are merely SHADOWS of the True Passover as it relates to an unseen REALITY. My Passover Haggadah is designed to help us understand NOT WHAT the Passover is as a series of songs, prayers, and fun family time, but rather WHO the Passover is from a redemptive point of view.From my point of view, the Passover service is NOT a noun to elevate all the related ceremonies and table rituals of the event because I think this is a mistaken focus. As you will come to see from this program, the Passover is a verb designed to elevate an all-important Messianic redemption, which will point us to the solemn actions of the One called Yeshua, the Messiah. As I understand the event, the Passover, is about honoring the Messianic narratives of the New Covenant. Please, do come along for this journey into learning about the Passover from our presently-unseen Messianic Redeemer – One who WAS, who IS, and who IS TO COME.Support the show
