Sermons – B'rit Hadasha Messianic Synagogue

Believing in Yeshua. To John, that’s what it’s all about. Once you move beyond the signs and accept what that means—that Yeshua as Messiah and that your life is forever changed with Him as your Lord and Savior. You have begun the journey of your lifetime!

What is this issue between you and G-d?  Come over to G-d’s side and look at your problems.  He is the True Vine and He turns water into wine if we abide in Him.

Seven things in John 1 that connect to Genesis. G-d had promised Himself a lamb and John said, “Behold the Lamb!”  His death works everything backwards.

G-d brings light into darkness.  Then He brings life and finally as our life becomes like His, order comes into our lives.

The Scriptures are the written revelation of God’s Word. They exist to point us to the Living Word, who tabernacled among, and who is the Light—to Yeshua, the way, the truth, and the life. They were written so that we might believe that is Yeshua is the Messiah, the Son of God. He is the Light… and the Light still shines today.

Because of the mercies of HaShem we will not be consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning! Great is Your faithfulness. “HaShem is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in Him.” HaShem is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul that seeks Him. (Lam 3:22-25)

Rich encourages us to remember and receive Yeshua’s love for us… and exhorts us to love as Yeshua loved.

Yeshua didn’t come to save us for some future, idyllic paradise… He came to save us now, so we could walk with him now, so we could start our eternal lives now, so we could enjoy God’s presence and power in our lives now, so we could overcome the world now.

Yeshua, the Spirit of Truth.

“It is clear who are the children of God and who are the children of the devil by this—anyone who does not act righteously or love his brother is not of God.” – 1 John 3:10

Abide in Him, abide in His love. Keep the Father’s commandments and abide in the Father’s love, just as our Messiah Yeshua did and tells us to do. It’s all about love. Love for the Father; love for His Son, Yeshua; and love for one another.

Listen to the introduction to our series of messages on John’s three letters. Allen reminds that, like the earliest believers, we are to testify to what we have seen and heard as we share the Good News of Messiah.

Being a family of prayer is an expression of our identity. Our prayer life serves to transform us, to make us more like Messiah. Yeshua’s wants to become a more loving people who are working together to make God’s Name known, experienced, enjoyed, and made manifest in all the Nations.

When we celebrate Chanukah, as we remember the miracles that ADONAI “has done for our fathers in those days at this season,” we also remember the coming of the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua, into the world — the light of the world through whom all may have the light of life.

Hold on… to Yeshua, to our faith, to our families, to our congregation, and to our unique calling as Jew and Gentile, one in Messiah, because it’s who we are and why we exist.

Why does it take a man who is imprisoned because of corrupt officials, awaiting possible execution over false charges, to tell us how to find contentment? What does Paul know that we don’t?

As a follower of Yeshua, always remember to rejoice in the midst of life’s challenges, whenever and however they come — because your name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

The Law is good… when used lawfully. But the Law can be misused — and that leads to a life lived according to unsound doctrine, based on the wrong foundation, and all of the pain, suffering, and disunity that comes from that.

Is it Yeshua that’s “got you”? Or is it someone or something else? Take hold of that for which Messiah Yeshua took hold of you… and press on, pursuing the goal, for the sake of the Good News.

When life gets “real,” where do you find the hope that sustains you? Is it in yourself, in this world… or is it where it needs to be, in Messiah Yeshua and his resurrection?

Starting with Yeshua’s mercy for a sinful woman, we examine the progression that should reflect a believer’s spiritual growth from sinner to servant.

Do you want to know exactly when Messiah will return? Listen to find out, from the Bible, exactly when and what you can do to make it happen.

As we approach Sukkot, we recall the time when Yeshua tabernacled among us — and we eagerly anticipate the return of our Messiah, the source of the living water, the mayim chaim. When we drink of it, trusting in him, we will never be thirsty again. And in the lives of his true disciples, this living water overflows into the lives of others.

Yom Kippur is just three days away. 72 hours. What if you only had 72 hours to live? Just 72 hours to get all your affairs in order, to make amends with estranged friends and family members, to say you’re sorry to those you’ve hurt over the years? What would you do?

As his Yeshua’s disciples, we are called to be engaged, faithfully and without rest, in the King’s business as we expectantly wait for the return of our King.

Philippians is a book worth reading, but it’s more than that: it’s book worth living out, imitating Yeshua our Messiah.

To truly live, we must be serving Yeshua — the living Word, the Torah made flesh, the bread of life. To live is Messiah and, knowing that, we also know that to die is gain.

In this week’s message, Rich reminds us that The LORD oversees our lives, guards our lives, and cares for us — and that we will lack nothing we need to live, and even thrive, in whatever God has called us, through His grace.

Allen introduces our series of messages on Paul’s letter to the Philippians.
