Podcasts about Elohim

Using the Exodus story as a powerful metaphor, Rabbi Steve Berkson beautifully guides us through the journey from slavery to freedom. This message encourages us to believe in the possibility of change and deliverance, inspired by the Israelites' escape from Egypt. It reminds us that real deliverance involves personal growth, not just external help. Continuing to explore Yahweh's role in our path to freedom, Rabbi Steve Berkson references Romans 8 and James 1 to highlight that Paul was contrasting the fleshly mind (human nature) with the mind of the Spirit of Elohim.• Intro/Review• God won't do this…• Back to the review• Romans 8:7 – You can't serve Elohim if…• Romans 8:1 – Disconnect YOUR understanding • Romans 8:3 – The Torah is weak?• Romans 8:5 – What are you thinking?• Romans 8:6 – The flesh (natural human) cannot submit to Elohim• Romans 8:9 – IF…• Change is possible, but not easy• Romans 8:10 – Righteousness is life• Romans 8:11 – What is a dwelling?• Romans 8:12 – You owe the flesh nothing!• James 1:8 – Double-minded (two natures)• James 1:1-3 – To whom are you proving your belief?• James 1:3-4 – Trials develop endurance • James 1:6-8 – Ask for wisdom • James 1:12 – There's a blessing for getting through the trial• James 1:14-15 – Desire births action• James 1:16-18 – Elohim brought us forth for what?• James 1:19-20 – Don't be quick to run your mouth• James 1:21-24 – The implanted Word will save your life• James 1:25 – The perfect law of freedomListen to the Afterburn tomorrowSubscribe to be notified of new content each week.Learn more about MTOI:https://mtoi.orgThe MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-appFollow MTOI:https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: 

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh? Taking us to Jeremiah 29:12, Rabbi Steve Berkson points out Yahweh's pattern of behavior toward His people. When He needs to correct covenant behavior, He starts with small, subtle nudges and then uses more severe measures to get our attention. If He determines that we are not listening or responding, we will be turned loose to “play with the pigs” and, hopefully, come to ourselves and return to Him and the Covenant. • What's the first thing one should do when returning to Yahweh? • What is “hedging an apology”? • What does it mean not to seek Yahweh with all your heart? In Isaiah 55:6, two things are mentioned – seeking Yahweh while He can still be found and calling on Him while He is near. • What causes Him not to be near? What separates you from Him and creates distance? • Why do we not fully understand and accept His ways? • What are 3 things that will forever be in the Kingdom of Elohim? From there, Rabbi Berkson takes us to Lamentations chapters 3 and 5, where we see the formula for a prayer of repentance. • Have you ever been contrary to the Covenant out of rebellion? • What does “renew our days as of old” mean? Then we hop back to Jeremiah 6:8-17, where we see that the Torah is much more than just “The Law”; it is for our instruction. Yahweh wants us to be ‘instructed' by Him. • How can our ears be “uncircumcised”? • Why does Yahweh want to see us walk out His instructions? • What is “greedy for gain”? Verse-by-verse and step-by-step, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on a journey of discovery, learning how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time, requires us to turn around and return to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): • Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm • Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

The Angelic kingdom pervades every part of planetary consciousness. Angels work with all the kingdoms of nature and humanity to the extent that each of us are accompanied by an Angel throughout the course of our lives.  This talk presents a picture of the Angelic kingdom and the divine hierarchy that includes the Elohim, Archangels, Archei, divas, angels, Cherubim, Seraphim and Divine Man. It discusses the role of archangels as well as reminding us of our own role as divine beings within a multi-dimensional hierarchy.

Today, we talk about pride and how it is seen in the eyes of Elohim

Hoy hablaremos del orgullo y de cómo se ve a los ojos de Elohim.

Today, we talk about the perversion present in the world today, and how we must anchor ourselves in the power of Elohim.

Hoy hablamos de la perversión presente en el mundo actual y de cómo debemos afianzarnos en el poder de Elohim.

In this study we will take a look at the women within the Bible. We will look at each one of them and see how their story influences our lives today.As we continue our study in this fantastic insight of the Women of the Bible, this morning we complete our study on Rachel and LeahNames in the Bible often say something about the person:Rachel means 'ewe', a female sheep, a symbol of prosperity and security for nomadic people Leah means 'weary or wild cow' Jacob means 'heel grabber', either his brother's heel at the moment of birth or his brother's inheritance later on; the name can also mean 'deceiver' Laban means 'white'; it was sometimes linked with leprosy Reuben means 'behold, a son!' Joseph means 'may he add or increase'The story contains five different episodes:   1 Rachel meets Jacob at the well, Genesis 29:1-14 2 Leah and Rachel marry Jacob, Genesis 29:15-30 3 Rachel has a son, Joseph, Genesis 29:31-15, 30:1-24 4 Rachel and Leah leave with Jacob, and Rachel takes the sacred household deities, Genesis 30:25-43, 31 5 Rachel has a son, Benjamin, and dies soon after, Genesis 35:16-30In our last study we learned about Jacob leaving his homeland and traveling to his mother's homeland of Haran to find a wife. There at the well Jacob meets his future wife Rachel. But hold on Rachel as we learned had a older sister Leah. When Jacob went into their father and asks for his daughters hand in marriage, Labin tricks Jacob into marrying Leah instead of Rachel. So we see that Jacob must fulfill his promise to Labin for the hand of Rachel. As the story unfolds we see Leah producing children for Jacob. However we see that Rachel faced a different problem. No matter how she prayed to Yahweh, no matter how much she was loved by Jacob, Rachel did not conceive. In desperation she gave her maid Bilhah [timid, bashful] to Jacob, so that he could conceive a child with Bilhah as a surrogate mother for Rachel. This practice was common in the ancient world [Code of Khammurabi section 145]; the woman became a concubine instead of a servant, and it was a step up the social ladder for her. She might become the mother of the future tribal leader.  Bilhah had a son, whom Rachel named Dan [judge]. Then she had a second son, and Rachel called him Naphtali [my wrestling]. In response, Leah gave her own maid Zilpah [trickling] to Jacob, and this resulted in yet more sons: Gad [troop] and Asher [happy]. A bitter rivalry grew up between the two women.  We pick up our story in Genesis Chapter 30(1-4) Rachel, out of frustration, gives Jacob her maid Bilhah to bear children through her.(5-6) The birth of Dan.(7-8) The birth of Naphtali.(9-11) The birth of Gad.(12-13) The birth of Asher.(14-18) The birth of Issachar.(19-20) The birth of Zebulun.(21) The birth of Dinah.Finally we read in verse 22 that Yahweh remembers Rachel and opens her womb.Verses 23, 24, “She conceived and bore a son and said, 'Elohim has taken away my reproach'; and she named him Joseph (let me add or adding), saying 'May Yahweh add to me another son!'” Rachel and Leah flee with JacobAt this stage, Jacob felt Yahweh calling him to return to his homeland. Rachel and Leah were also dissatisfied by the way things were panning out financially, and felt they are not getting what they were entitled to as Laban's daughters. It was time to go. They both urged Jacob to take action. It seems that Rachel in particular was still angry at her father for what he had done to her. Before they set out, she took the small figurines that represented the spirits of ancestors and the protective deities of her father's family (the teraphim), telling no one at all what she was doing. This was not a random act of malice, for years ago on what should have been her wedding night, Laban had stolen Rachel's happiness. Now she stole something that was precious to him - pay-back for a life-time of bullying. But her act had wider significance than this, because the teraphim (This word occurs only in the plural, and denotes images connected with magical rites. The teraphim, translated, "images", in the Authorized Version, carried away from Laban, by Rachel, were regarded by Laban as elohims, and it would, therefore, appear that they were used by those who added corrupt practices to the patriarchal religion) were a form of title deed, and the person who possessed them could claim the tribe's wealth. Ownership of the household deities was the privilege of the head of the family, and by taking them Rachel secured this position for her husband.  The whole family group assembled; ready to return to the land of Jacob's father, Isaac. They crossed the Euphrates and headed towards the hill country of Gilead. But it was not going to be as easy as that. Laban pursued them, caught up with them, and confronted them. Where were the household elohims? They were missing and Laban wanted them back.  This was news to Jacob. He did not know Rachel had taken them, since she had kept them hidden and had not told anyone what she had done. Jacob then made one of those foolish pronouncements that give the reader a hint that something bad is coming: he indignantly denied knowledge of the theft, and said that whoever had done such a thing should die. Laban searched the tents of Jacob, Leah, and the two maids to find the teraphim- each woman in a polygamous marriage had her own separate tent.  Laban found nothing. Then he went into Rachel's tent, where the teraphim were hidden. What he did not know was that Rachel had hidden them in the saddlebags of her camel. She greeted her father respectfully but did not rise from where she was sitting. She explained modestly that she could not do so, since she was menstruating.     'Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the way of women is upon me.'This meant that the cloth on which she was sitting was ritually unclean, and could not be touched by anyone. Most ancient tribes had customs that allowed menstruating women to withdraw from physical contact with the tribe while they had their periods, and women welcomed this time of rest from their usual tasks. Rachel's manner towards her father was so sweet and yielding that Laban did not argue or tell her to move, and the upshot was that he left her tent empty-handed. She had used the laws of ritual cleanliness to her own advantage. The irony was that it was a lie. She was already pregnant with a son.Since Laban could not find the teraphim, he had to back down. The two men made a face-saving covenant, and early the next morning Laban said good-bye to them all, and left.When Laban was gone Rachel's family moved on, and on the way to Ephrath she went into labor. This time things did not go well for her. The pains were very bad, and Rachel suffered terribly. To comfort her, the midwife told her it would be a boy. It was, but Rachel would not live to see him grow. She died in childbirth.  Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

Esther Treasure - 7th June 2026 - Creator Elohim by Top Church Dudley

In this episode of the Divine Council Worldview Podcast, Ronn and Mike engage in a deep exploration of the concept of theosis, comparing its interpretations in Eastern Orthodoxy and Mormonism. They discuss the implications of salvation as a transformative process that integrates believers into God's family and the significance of exorcisms in the New Testament as a reflection of the cosmic battle between divine and rebellious beings. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding theological terms and concepts within their historical and cultural contexts, fostering a richer dialogue among different Christian traditions. They also delve into the complexities of demonic activity in the New Testament, the role of the Pharisees in relation to Yahweh, the nature of worship, and the interpretation of Elohim in biblical theology. Finally, they explore how cultural and historical contexts influence these themes, emphasizing the importance of understanding the spiritual dynamics at play during the time of Jesus and the implications for contemporary faith practices.

Using the Exodus story as a powerful metaphor, Rabbi Steve Berkson beautifully guides us through the journey from slavery to freedom. This message encourages us to believe in the possibility of change and deliverance, inspired by the Israelites' escape from Egypt. It reminds us that real deliverance involves personal growth, not just external help. Rabbi Berkson, referencing Ephesians chapter two, highlights the significance of grasping its core message: to overcome hostility and accept the grace available to everyone through Messiah Yeshua by following the path that Elohim has laid out in His Torah.• Intro/Review• Yahweh's Role in the Process - Step 3• Ephesians 2:1-2 Authority over nothing?• Ephesians 2:3 The battle for your mind• Ephesians 2:4-7 Favor equals graciousness• Ephesians 2:8 If we act in belief…• Ephesians 2:9 What kind of moron…?• Something funny about Ephesians 2:5• Back to zero• Ephesians 2:10 We should walk in these… • Ephesians 2:11 Two groups of people• Ephesians 2:12 Having no expectation and without Elohim• Ephesians 2:13-15 Messiah abolished what? • Ephesians 2:16 Restored to favor• Ephesians 2:17-22 No longer strangers, but fellow citizens Learn more about MTOI:https://mtoi.orgThe MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-appFollow MTOI:https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: 

En nuestra emisión anterior vimos diferentes pruebas que demuestran que la pronunciación Jehová es totalmente incorrecta. Ahora veremos la única pronunciación correcta del Tetragrámaton, basado en los textos hebreos de la Biblia. Las falsas doctrinas de teólogos y académicos, nos quieren hacer pensar que es “imposible saber con certeza” el nombre de nuestro Creador. Veremos que hay antiguos manuscritos que confirman la correcta pronunciación del Nombre de nuestro Creador. Además, reconstruiremos este Nombre utilizando la Biblia.Partiremos de la raíz del Nombre de YAHWÉH, nos apoyaremos en los nombres teofóricos, que contienen abreviaciones del Nombre original del SEÑOR. Y a través de la gramática hebrea, encontraremos la única combinación de vocales y consonantes que son válidas para el Nombre que está sobre todo nombre.Puede encontrar el artículo de esta emisión en el siguiente link:https://lasagradapalabra.org/la-correcta-pronunciacion-parte-4Que YAHWÉH nuestro Elohim los bendiga.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this teaching, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues with the second “Great Command” to love your neighbor or each other. He picks up where we left off in James (Ya'akov) chapter 4, then moves into chapter 5, and finally takes us to 1 John chapter 1. • How do your likes or dislikes affect your relationships with others? What does Rabbi mean by saying we have to “learn each other”? • What does “friendship with the world” mean? • What does “subject yourselves to Elohim” mean? • What does “resist the devil” mean? • How do you draw near to Elohim? How does Elohim draw near to you? • When pursuing Torah, whose feelings are you most concerned about protecting – your friends and family or Elohim? • How would you define ‘sin'? • Do you really understand what the first two verses of 1 John are talking about? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Have you ever struggled to truly understand who God is? Throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself through His names. Each name is like a flash of light in the darkness, revealing His character, His power, His presence, and His relationship with His people. In this message, we begin exploring one of the most important names of God in the Bible: Elohim — “The Strong Creator.” Why does the Bible introduce God to us first as Elohim in Genesis 1:1? What does this name reveal about His greatness, authority, and power? And why would this have mattered so deeply to the original audience who had just been delivered from Egypt? In Pastor Roger Pettay's message, you will discover: • Why God has so many names in Scripture • How God's names reveal His character and relationship with us • Why the name Elohim appears over 2,500 times in the Old Testament • What the plural form of Elohim means • Why Genesis introduces God first as the Creator God • What it means that everything belongs to Him This is more than a study of names. It is an invitation to know God more personally, worship Him more deeply, and stand in awe of the Creator who was there “in the beginning.” #Elohim #CreatorGod #NamesOfGod #BiblicalTruth #Genesis1 #KnowGod #ChristianFaith #BibleTeaching #SermonPodcast #ChristianPodcast #ExaltChurch #ExaltChurchVA

Join Fr. Assisi Saldanha, C.Ss.R. for an insightful journey into the heart of biblical storytelling in this episode of the Who's Who in the Bible series. As we begin this reflective study, Fr. Assisi turns our focus to the prime mover of the biblical landscape—God Himself. Through a warm and prayerful exploration, he unpacks the significance of the various names attributed to God throughout scripture, such as Yahweh, Elohim, Adonai, and El Shaddai. By examining these titles, Fr. Assisi helps us move beyond simple facts to develop a deeper, more personal relationship with the Divine. The discussion expands into the Genesis creation narrative, contrasting it with ancient mythological stories to highlight the unique, effortless, and orderly nature of God's creative word. This episode invites listeners to ponder the balance between God's magnificent omnipotence and His tender, personal care for each of us in our fragility. We invite you to continue this meaningful journey by exploring the full series as we dive deeper into the characters and themes that shape our faith.

Using the Exodus story as a powerful metaphor, Rabbi Steve Berkson beautifully guides us through the journey from slavery to freedom. This message encourages us to believe in the possibility of change and deliverance, inspired by the Israelites' escape from Egypt. It reminds us that real deliverance involves personal growth, not just external help. The focus then gently shifts to Ephesians 4:17, urging us to let go of “futility of the mind” and embrace a fresh way of thinking and living in alignment with Elohim's will.It also highlights how a hardened heart, filled with pride and ego, can block us from recognizing our faults and receiving forgiveness. This hardening, which often stems from a distorted view of reality and denial of truth, can foster callousness that hinders our spiritual growth. Overcoming it calls for humility, awareness of our true nature, and a willingness to shed the old ways to develop a renewed mindset inspired by Messiah Yeshua's teachings.From Slavery to Freedom (Freeing Your Mind) | Part 1• Intro• Exodus 6 - Yahweh has heard your moaning and groaning• The four parts of Yahweh's role in our journey to freedom• What is enslaving us today?

Get the notes!THE HUMILIATION AND CORONATION OF THE SON: EXPOSITION OF HEBREWS 2:5-18The structural integrity of the New Covenant rests upon a profound Christological paradox: the sovereign, pre-existent Creator—who holds absolute ontological supremacy over the angelic realm—voluntarily entered a state of temporary human limitation to achieve cosmic redemption. For first-century Hebrew Christians enduring severe social, economic, and physical persecution, the temptation to drift away from the apostolic message and retreat into the safer rituals of traditional temple Judaism was immense.To ground these suffering believers, the author of Hebrews constructed a brilliant legal and covenantal defense. The text demonstrates that the original creative intent of God was to establish complete human dominion over the earth and the world to come—an authority tragically forfeited by the first Adam at the Fall and illegally transferred to Satan. To justly reclaim this dominion, the Savior had to become a real human being. Through His life, suffering, and substitutionary death on the cross, Jesus defeated the devil, broke the power of the grave, paid the penalty for human sin, and brought a new family of brothers into a restored relationship with God.MAIN EXPOSITIONAL MOVEMENTSI. The Exclusivity of Human Governance over the Coming Age (Hebrews 2:5-8)The author resumes the primary theological argument by declaring that God did not subject the “world to come” (οἰκουμένη τὴν μέλλουσαν) to the authority or administrative control of angelic beings. In New Testament eschatology, this phrase refers directly to the literal, terrestrial Messianic Kingdom predicted throughout Old Testament prophecy and described in Revelation 20 as Christ's 1,000-year reign on earth. Citing Psalm 8:4-6, the author outlines the unique design of humanity. Though ontologically lower than angels because man is terrestrial (dust) rather than celestial (spirit), humanity was sovereignly crowned with glory and honor and appointed over the works of creation.II. The Tragedy of the Fall and Forfeiture of DominionThe comprehensive dominion outlined in Psalm 8 was initially deposited into the hands of the first man, Adam, acting as the federal head of human nature. Adam failed the test of covenantal love in Eden by violating the negative prohibition regarding the tree. Consequently, human dominion was lost and illicitly transferred to Satan, establishing him as the temporary “ruler of this world” (John 12:31). The text provides a sobering diagnosis of the current age: “But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him”. The immediate state of creation displays severe fragmentation, visible in the agricultural curse of Genesis 3 and the paradigm of natural terror introduced in Genesis 9.III. The Legal Necessity of the Incarnation and Atonement (Hebrews 2:9-13)Because a human head lost human dominion through sin, it was legally and transactionally essential that a genuine human head regain it. Jesus was made “for a little while lower than the angels” by assuming a true human nature and entering directly into the limitations of the human experience. By the sovereign grace of God, Christ tasted death on behalf of everyone (ὑπὲρ παντός), acting as a perfect substitutionary sacrifice to satisfy the righteous wrath of God against human rebellion. Because of His perfect obedience unto death, Jesus was resurrected, ascended, and is currently crowned with supreme glory and honor at the right hand of God, legally recapturing the dominion lost in Eden.IV. The Conquest of the Grave and the High Priestly Office (Hebrews 2:14-18)Since human children are bound to a nature of blood and flesh, Christ deliberately partook of the exact same physical reality. Christ utilized the very reality of physical death to break and render utterly powerless the devil, who previously held the power and authority of death. By emerging victorious over the grave, Christ dismantled the existential terror of death that kept humanity in lifelong spiritual slavery. Having offered His own body as a perfect propitiation (ἱλάσκεσθαι) to satisfy God's wrath, He currently sits at the right hand of the Father, operating as a faithful and merciful High Priest interceding for His people.

God reveals Himself in the Old Testament through 4 key names. These names remind us of his power as creator (Elohim). (Jehovah) Reminds us that He desires a personal relationship with us. For us to follow Him, He must be our master (Adonai). When we trust Him as our personal Savior; He is forever with us (Immanuel). He is the God who is!

In this episode they mix warm fellowship and personal updates—including a shout-out to attendee Jennifer Eskew (who traveled from Alaska) and joyful family pregnancy announcements—with a thoughtful study on worship and the opening chapters of Scripture. The conversation centers on the theme that God made us to worship. Kathy and Carla explore early examples of worship in Genesis—Cain and Abel's offerings, Noah's altar after the flood, and Abraham's sacrifice in Genesis 22 (the first time the word worship appears)—and highlight how our view of God shapes true worship. They unpack Hebrew worship terms like shakah (bowing down), hallel (praise), and yadah (lifting hands) and connect those postures and words to Psalms and New Testament teaching about sincere, God-centered praise. The hosts contrast the two creation accounts in Genesis 1 and 2: chapter 1 presents God as Elohim, the mighty Creator who speaks the cosmos into being with powerful commands, while chapter 2 portrays Yahweh Elohim as intimate and hands-on—forming man, breathing life, planting the garden, and building woman from Adam's rib. These differing portraits reveal both God's majesty and his desire for a close, covenant relationship with humanity. Kathy and Carla also use a vivid analogy—comparing Eden to the idyllic Camelot—to illustrate how God's original design was perfect, how sin shattered that harmony, and how the rest of Scripture unveils God's plan to restore fellowship with His people. They remind listeners that nothing took God by surprise and that redemption is woven throughout the story of the Bible. Practical application rounds out the episode: the hosts offer tangible ways to prepare your heart for worship (prepare the night before, choose a psalm, pray in the morning or in the shower, sing on the drive to church, and even lift your chest to change your posture and attitude). They read and reflect on Psalm 95—calling listeners to come before God with joy, thanksgiving, and an unhardened heart—and discuss how worship brings rest and renewal both now and ultimately in God's promised dwelling with His people. Expect a warm, conversational episode that blends biblical teaching (Genesis 1–3, 4, 8, 22; Psalm 95; Lamentations 3:41 and New Testament references), Hebrew word insights, personal stories, and simple, faith-building practices to help listeners reclaim joyful, heartfelt worship in everyday life. Closing line: "Until next time, He will be known."   Duration 40:57

Rabbi Steve Berkson emphasizes the importance of being aware of death to inspire us to make the most of our time in this life.

In this episode of The Bible as Literature, Fr. Marc Boulos delivers a powerful Mother's Day homily and biblical reflection on the meaning of Baal, husbandry, empire, and the anti-imperial function of scripture. Beginning with the Semitic root ב־ע־ל / ب־ع־ل (b-ʿ-l), Fr. Marc explains how the biblical attack is not against the husband or father, but against the corruption of husbandry into domination, ownership, kingship, and institutional power, what he calls “Baalism.”Drawing on examples from Roman slavery, Baalbek, St. George, Ezekiel, Luke 9, Isaiah, Nahum, and the Qur'an, this episode explores how scripture dismantles empire and restores humanity to its proper place as caretaker of the land rather than master over it. Fr. Marc argues that the earth functions as mother, not as a goddess, and that Elohim alone is Father, King, and Lord.The second half of the episode turns to Luke 9:6 and the Greek verbs διέρχομαι, εὐαγγελίζω, and θεραπεύω, showing how the apostles do not possess healing as power, but cross through the land as slaves bearing witness to the coming judgment and kingdom of God. Through Hebrew and Arabic lexical correspondences, Fr. Marc demonstrates how biblical language functions not as abstract philosophy, but as enacted decree.This episode challenges modern assumptions about power, property, fatherhood, rights, religion, and institutional life, while presenting scripture as an ancient anti-imperial witness against tyranny and domination.Luke 9:6Εξερχόμενοι διήρχοντο κατὰ τὰς κώμας εὐαγγελιζόμενοι καὶ θεραπεύοντες πανταχοῦ“Departing, they began going throughout the villages, preaching the gospel and serving everywhere.” ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing in the book of James (Ya'akov), Rabbi Steve Berkson breaks down chapter 1… • Does Elohim ‘entice' anyone to do something against His commandments? How and why are you enticed to leave the Path? • Does Yahweh ever change? • What is the definition of a “remnant”? • By what term are we who are in covenant with Elohim called? • When should you not post anything on social media? • What is the first action you should take after praying when faced with a life issue? • How are you to be “swift to hear and slow to speak”? • What is “Failure to Adult,” and why is it an epidemic today? • A Doer of Work? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, enabling you to do it and receive the blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app Follow MTOI: https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide Contact MTOI: admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): •Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm •Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

What happens when a high-ranking church official discovers evidence of ancient aliens encoded into holy scripture? In this captivating episode, we interview Paul Wallis, a former Anglican Church Archdeacon who risked his theological reputation to expose a centuries-old Biblical Cover-Up. If you think the Book of Genesis is just a simple moral allegory, get ready to have your foundational worldview completely shattered. Through a careful examination of ancient languages, Wallis highlights how early editors deliberately mistranslated references to the Elohim.The original scriptures did not describe a spiritual sky-god, but rather powerful, tangible beings who arrived on Earth with advanced technologies. This stunning reality completely recontextualizes our understanding of UFOs and Aliens within the framework of modern faith. We explore the compelling insights from his acclaimed book, Escaping from Eden, which details how matching stories of extraterrestrial creation can be found in the sacred traditions of Mesoamerica, Africa, and ancient India. Why did ancient scribes censor our real history, and what are the deep psychological consequences of humanity forgetting its true origins? By reviewing older Sumerian Texts, we unlock the hidden blueprints of our species.This episode is packed with provocative questions that challenge the core doctrines of institutionalized religion. Are we living out an amnesic existence because our real creators left us with a coded message? Paul Wallis provides a refreshing, scholarly, and deeply mystical approach to recovering our lost cosmic history. Whether you are a firm believer, an open-minded skeptic, or a dedicated UFO researcher, this jaw-dropping conversation will leave you questioning the very fabric of human civilization.✨ Download Our FREE Throne Room Meditation✨ ➡️ https://www.truthseekah.com ➡️Join our online community at https://www.truthseekah.com ➡️ Support on Patreon! https://patreon.com/join/truthseekah✅ Get access to 40+ video lessons + Weekly LIVE calls!✅ Worldwide Online Community!✅ Courses, Monthly Webinars, Prayer, Meditation, Discussion✅ TruthSeekah's Meditation Library

This week's teaching explored the name Elohim, revealing God as the sovereign Creator who rules over all things, speaks with limitless power, and is perfectly good. Through Genesis 1, we're reminded that life was never meant to be lived independently from God, because the same Elohim who created the world also invites us into relationship with Him. Rather than carrying fear, pressure, pain, or striving alone, we're called to rely on His strength, rest in His goodness, and draw near to Him through Jesus.

The 10 Commandments E8 — The first four commandments focus on relating to God, and the last five focus on relating to other humans. Right in the middle, we find the 5th Commandment, which acts like a hinge between these two sections: “Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be prolonged in the land which Yahweh your Elohim gives you.” It's the only commandment that comes with a promise and invokes both humans and God. So what is this special connection between parents and God? In this episode, Jon and Tim look at this unique command, exploring what it meant for ancient Israel and how followers of Jesus can practice it today.

Dr. Joel Muddamalle joined us in the studio in front of a live audience to tackle a question most churches never even think to ask: what actually happened when Jesus ascended? Joel connects the dots between the final verse of Psalm 82, where Yahweh commands an Elohim to rise and judge the earth, and the moment Christ physically rises into the heavens in front of witnesses. The lexical connections between the Hebrew and Greek are not coincidental. The Ascension is the fulfillment of the cosmic judgment pronounced against the rebellious gods of the nations, and it changes how we understand every use of the words rulers, authorities, and powers in the New Testament.The conversation goes from there into what spiritual warfare actually looks like on this side of the cross. Joel argues that the decisive battle has already been won and the gospel is the announcement riding out to every corner of the battlefield. He unpacks the ambassador language of 2 Corinthians 5, the armor of God as Yahweh's own armor from Isaiah, and why the dark powers today are disarmed cockroaches trying to take as many people down with them as possible before the King returns. This is a live, unscripted, deeply theological hour that also features a Cal Ripken conspiracy theory and a sloppy wet kiss.Dr. Joel's book can be found here: The Unseen Battle: Spiritual Warfare, the Three Rebellions, and Christ's Victory Over Dark Powers .A live Q&A session was recorded with the audience at the conclusion of this episode and is available for all Blurry Creatures members.

There is power when a specific name is called on. Hypothetically, let's say we're on a boat in Bali, charting to the island of Nusa Pineda. If you hear me say, “Girls, come over here”, you would think, “hmmm, am I a girl? Yes – she wants to show me something and maybe it's something great I don't want to miss. But let's say we're on that boat in Bali, chartering to the island of Nusa Pineda for great adventures and you hear me say, “NURSE!”, you know that means something totally different. That means if you're not a nurse, this doesn't apply to you. But that means if you are a nurse, I need you to come quickly and help with a medical situation. That's all in the calling of a name. The name defines who is needed. You have many names perhaps. Friend, daughter, honey, mom, nurse, teacher … and each calls to you in a different way. For a mother, the sound of “Mom” turns every head in the grocery store. I'm Mom – what do you need? How can I take care of you? Now think about God. He reveals his different names to us for a reason – he wants us to call on him for who we need. The more you know his names, the better you can call on him and the more you can trust him. Remember, this study of the names of God comes from Psalm 9:10, “Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O LORD, do not abandon those who search for you.” So far, we've studied 5 of the names of God. Let's do a review. Episode #2100: YHWH – The name you've always known since your first breath. A name not spoken, but rather breathed. LORD Episode #2101: Adonai – Lord, Master. The one responsible for you. Episode #2102: Elohim – Creator. The one who makes a new way when there is no way. The one who is making you new. Episode #2103: El Shaddai – God Almighty. The one whose hand is in everything and pours out his blessings on you. Episode #2104: Yahweh Rapha – The Lord who heals you – but not just your body, your mind, your heart, your relationships. Your entire life finds healing in him. Now, today, the 6th name of God revealed by God himself in scripture. A name he wants you to know so you can call on him in a very specific. A name he gives you so you can trust him more. Today's name is likely one you've never even heard of. A name that is very hard to pronounce, so together we're going to learn something new. Repeat after me – Mehhh Ka Desh Kem Together, Mehhh-ka-desh-kem. A name that tells you that you belong to him and he is actively shaping you. A name that gives you identity, value, worth, confidence and rest. A name that tells you to stop performing, stop trying to achieve so hard, stop trying to bend and contort yourself into perfection, and trust Yahweh Mekaddishkem to do his work in you. Is that what you need today? Girl, you don't have to figure this all out – you don't have to force anything – and you don't have to perform to please the Father. He's actually already done the work for you. We find this name in Exodus 31:3, but you won't see it in your English translation Bible. Without studying the original text of Hebrew, you'll completely miss this name God has shared of himself. Here's what you will see in your Bible: The LORD then gave these instruction to Moses: Tell the people of Israel: ‘Be careful to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sing of the covenant between me and you from generation to generation. It is given so you may know that I am the LORD, who makes you holy.” The LORD who makes you Holy in Hebrew was YHWH Mekaddishkem. Mekaddishkem comes from the Hebrew root “qadash” which means to sanctify, set apart, and to make you holy. So, what God is saying to his people here is I AM THE ONE WHO MAKES YOU FOREVER GOOD ENOUGH. It is my work in you that makes you holy. It's on ME to sanctify you. What does it mean that God will sanctify you? That's hard to explain isn’t it? What does that really look like? My friend, it's this simple and this incredibly unbelievable – You, in your totally flawed and imperfect state within the human condition are set apart for God's divine purpose and he is progressively and continually working on you to be more and more like Jesus. That is something you simply cannot do yourself, no matter how hard you try. What God is revealing to his people here isn't some unreachable complex theology, it's an identity shaping truth meant specifically of this people. YOU BELONG TO ME AND I AM ACTIVELY SHAPING YOU. You are “becoming” in me and through me. And who you're becoming is who he always created you to be – a girl who reflects Jesus! That's holy. That's sanctified. That's forever good enough. Your holiness is not self-produced. Think about God in his infinite and perfect ways – think about his unimaginable creation of the Universe all by just his spoken word – think of his power to do absolutely anything he wishes at any time – now really, do you think there's anything YOU could do that would impress HIM? Never. So, you can't stop trying to perform and earn your way to God's good graces. He's already declared you as worthy of his love. He's already claimed you as his dearly beloved Daughter of the Dance. You've already been set apart because of what HE did, not because of anything YOU have ever, could ever, or would ever do. You are set apart by God – you are different – you are HIS! This wasn't your responsibility. Your change, your growth, your newness comes from a source – that source is GOD – not you. You don't first act holy to be set apart. No, you are set apart, and once you understand that as your identity, you naturally begin to live differently. That's God's active, ever present, holy work happening IN YOU. You can't manufacture this holiness, you can only receive it. Open your hands and receive it. For real, open your hands right now and just receive his holiness. He's set YOU apart to be made holy by HIM. My sister, trying harder isn't your answer. Have you noticed all your efforts continually fall short. You know what gets you where you need to be? SURRENDER. You can't manufacture what God is trying to give you. You can only receive it with that open, surrendered hand and heart. Old Testament was about what you could do. Rules, laws, rituals, ceremonies, cleansing, sacrifices … and God's people continually messed that up. We simply couldn't get it right. We couldn't make ourselves holy. So, that's what our Jesus did for us. We're no longer a slave to continually trying to do the right thing. It's no longer about what you can do and what you can’t do – it's solely about WHO you belong to. This is belonging, and God says, “YOU BELONG TO ME – NOW I WILL MAKE YOU HOLY. I ALONE WILL SANCTIFY YOU.” Because God is the one who sanctifies you, you can know that your failure simply isn't in the way for him. You may stumble, God says that's all part of the process, and this is HIS PROCESS. Surrender and trust him along the way. Now, in closing, notice specifically where this revealing of God's name, YWHW Mekaddishkem comes – it comes after God gives his people the sabbath – a day of rest in his covenant with them. A day where he says, “Stop working. Stop striving. Stop trying to fix everything, and just rest in me. Let me work.” Is that what you need to hear today? Rest is part of the process of you becoming everything God desires of you. Will you trust God enough to STOP sometimes? Will you trust God enough to rest from the work too? YHWH Mekaddishkem means: God is not waiting for you to become holy – He is already committed to making you holy. He is actively sanctifying you. Stop trying to fix everything and start yielding to the one who is shaping you. You can trust YHWY Mekaddishkem completely.

The third stop in our names of God study brings us to Elohim, and it's actually where it all begins. Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” The Hebrew word used here for God is “Elohim”. This is how we meet God, and before he asks absolutely anything of us, he reveals who he is. Who is he? He is Elohim, meaning he is the Supreme One, the Mighty One, the Creator. The name Elohim tells us our God is all power and absolutely zero limitation. Nothing and no one is above him and everything begins with him. Nothing exists without the Creator. To understand our Elohim, look at his creation. Look at the magnificent universe and its perfect balance to sustain life. Look at the intricate details of life. Nothing is by accident, everything is the intentional thought and spoken word of Elohim, the Creator. But you know that, right? You know he created all of this and holds all of this, but do you realize, Elohim doesn't stop there. A creator doesn't create once and never create again. He continues to create. He continues to make things new … for you! Not only for you, but IN YOU. 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a NEW person. The old life is gone; a NEW LIFE has begun!” This is the work of Elohim, the Creator who is still creating new things in you. As long as you're alive, he's still creating in you. New things are growing and developing because of his continued work of creation in you. Question – Where do you need Elohim to create something new in you? God is working in you, and he's working all around you. Elohim can work in anything and everything because it was all his original work anyway. The one who created it can change it or redesign it in any way he wishes. He alone holds that power. Maybe what you need doesn't even exist right now. Do you honestly think that's a problem for Elohim, the Supreme One, the Mighty One, the Creator? Girl, he can create the solution for your problem. He can design the pathway through your impossible. He can make a brand new, never been seen before creation to meet your need. He is not limited to what has been before. He is not limited to what makes sense. He's not limited to what you know or what you understand. He can make a new cure. He can make a new way. He can make a new solution. Our God is a CREATOR. He creates things that have never existed before. Did you know you can call on him to create for you now? Think about this – when Moses and the Israelites stood before an impassable Red Sea with their enemies closing in from behind, there was no way. There were no solutions. This was hopeless. So Elohim, our God the Creator, created a new way that had never been seen or imagined before. He created a dry path through the Red Sea by splitting the waters and making them stand on their ends. And let me tell you something you need to know – If God can do that then for them, God can do something radically new for you now! Call on your Elohim. God, create a way for me. Maybe what you need is a new opportunity. You're at a dead end with no viable options and you feel desperate. You've looked for a different opportunity and found absolutely none. Well – LOOK AGAIN, Sis. For real, God can create a new opportunity for you that simply wasn't there before … but it can be now. In my journey of faith I've found this simple truth – God loves to show up for the one who is looking for him. Jesus tells us in Matthew 7:7, “Seek and you will find.” I believe Jesus really meant that and I believe Elohim can really back it up. If you look for him, you will find him … and you'll find him doing new things for you all the time! Creating ways where there were no ways before. Creating new opportunities where old opportunities spoiled. Creating new solutions to impossible problems and letting you stumble right into them as you seek his hand. Question – Where do you need Elohim to create something new for you? You can trust God's unlimited hand over your limitations. You can trust God's power over your problems. He can speak into existence absolutely ANYTHING NEEDED HERE. Elohim is the creator of all things, including YOU. Nothing in your life is beyond his power. He can create in you what you cannot create on your own. He can align for you in one day what you couldn't possibly make come together in a hundred lifetimes. Get a glimpse of how big your God, Elohim, really is … now know that anything you can dare to imagine is the tiniest proportion of who he really is and what he can really do. Elohim doesn't just create worlds with mountains and valleys, rivers and oceans, the sun and moon and stars – he creates moments – he creates solutions – he creates connections – he creates paths that lead to eternal destinations. Elohim creates abundance where there was lack, order where there was chaos, and life where there was death. In Exodus, we see God create manna out of absolutely nothing and make this dewy food substance just appear on the wilderness ground every morning for his people. It had never been there before and likely has never been there again since – but he made it new for the Israelites just when they needed it. This shows us Elohim doesn't need resources – HE CREATES THEM. Maybe you're standing here today empty handed feeling like you have nothing to even start with. Okay, that's not a problem for our God. He can create the resources you need. He can create the job. He can create the opportunity. He can create the connection. He can create the need and then allow YOU to be the one to meet the need in a perfect way. How many times in scripture do we see God create new life in a womb that was declared barren and broken? That's not a limitation for the Creator. He can create in impossible places and grow miracles. I'm literally watching him do that right now in one of my friend's lives. Elohim is still working! In 2 Chronicles 20, God gives a new battle plan for Jehoshaphat against a mighty army he didn't have a chance winning against. The new battle plan God gave was to go out and sing praises the next morning and this would send the enemy armies into a frenzy and fight against one another. As Jehoshaphat and his tiny army of men sang praises to the Lord, this massive army slaughtered each other until not a single enemy remained. I need a battle plan like that for some battles I'm facing. A new plan straight from Elohim! How about you? He creates solutions we would never think of, and even when they sound crazy, God's solutions will NOT FAIL! Elohim spoke a new identity over Gideon. In Judges 6 Gideon felt like the smallest nobody of a whole tribe of nobodies. But Elohim speaks a new identity into Gideon as a mighty warrior. That mighty warrior went on and did mighty things with his new identity. Question – Do you need Elohim to speak a new identity over you? Remember, he's already doing the work in you! Going back to 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a NEW person. The old life is gone; a NEW LIFE has begun!” Let him create a new identity in you and do a new work through you leading you to a radically new life! Elohim – our God the Creator is all power and zero limitation … and he's still creating today!

Picking up at Malachi 2:13, Peter Leithart, Jeff Meyers, Alastair Roberts, and James Bejon turn to Yahweh's second charge against Judah in this section: the treacherous dismissal of the wives of their youth. The conversation traces the double register of the passage (the covenant of individual marriage and Yahweh's own bridal relationship with Israel and his sanctuary) and asks whether the same typological layering found in verses 10–12 continues here. Considerable attention falls on the notoriously difficult verse 15, with James Bejon guiding the group through the Hebrew: the one father who makes husband and wife one, the remnant of the spirit, and the seeking of godly (zera' Elohim) seed. The discussion moves into the imagery of the garment covered in violence in verse 16, and closes with a debate over the ESV's departure from the traditional "I hate divorce" rendering — the group lands in agreement that the third-person reading ("the man who hates and divorces") is both textually defensible and theologically clarifying.

The 10 Commandments E5 — In the ancient world, gods (or elohim in Hebrew) were associated with transcendent forces of nature, and humans created statues (mostly of animals) to represent these forces, known as idols. But in Exodus 20:4-6, Yahweh forbids Israel from making idols of himself or any other spiritual being. Why? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the 2nd Commandment to discover how idols diminish the identity of both God and humans.

Follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes to hear the full episode and our in-depth conversation with Vanessa Richardson about Raëlism and our takeaways from the cult. In the 1970s, a French journalist claimed he was contacted by extraterrestrial beings who revealed that humanity was scientifically created by an advanced alien race. From that encounter, the Raëlian Movement was born, blending UFO belief, sensual freedom, and a futuristic vision of human destiny. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson examines the rise of founder Claude Vorilhon, known as Raël, and the group's teachings about the Elohim, cloning, and eternal life through science. As the movement spread internationally and made headlines with controversial claims of human cloning, critics challenged its credibility and internal practices. This episode explores how a message of cosmic origins and technological salvation evolved into one of the most unusual and debated new religious movements of the modern era.Follow Conspiracy Theories, Cults and Crimes, for more episodes like this: https://play.megaphone.fm/rbfx2e-fr9uigmk-29g8ea
